A GOOD KECOKD SLIPPING—FAST
SEEMINGLY, San Antmiio is speedily, and definitely, on its
way to losing a reputation that it has enjoyed, for the
past few years, as the Texas and Southern city of least
homicides and violence among Negroes. Year in and year
ont. Sail Antonio lias had fewer killings in nn entire twelve-
month p< r od than other Texas cities have had in that many
weeks . . . Hut, possibly, San Antonio is not aftogetlu-r
responsible for its "g">d" murder record. Certainly the
rec -ils i veal that the intent to kill has been unmistakably
manifest I'd only too many times, but the intended victims
were too unaccommodating to die, or too stubborn to let
themselves In slain. And it is an irrefutable fact that any-
hi'lv wi.ii eli 'ises may carry a murder weapon at any. and

gave out. some interesting bits of
informatior. stressing the fact that
this health business is not merely
a celebration one week out of the
year, but a year-round health
measure. Also, that public health
work is not primarily the provi-
sion of safe water, milk and food,
but nt the same time the mainten-
ance of individual and personal
health achieved by being receptive
to authentic information and In-
telligently applying these instruc-
tions. Major Campbell C. John-
son, executive secretary of the
local VM' A, added pertinent com-
ments, and Dr. Roscoe C. Brown
acted as announcer and m.c. The
Howard university glee club fur-
nished the music, and all in all it
was an entirely worthy program.

wards. It's always gratifying, you

preciates your efforts.

Another book deserving a wold

while I tell you about a few boolt?
which you really shouldn't miss.
Even if they aren't No. 1 on tlie
list of best sellers, you will find
them on the reading table of a
substantial list of good American?.
Last fall, a book appeared or.
the literary market which neyer
really received the attention it
de^'rved. for READING THK
PRICE TAGS OF LIFE, by M. K.
Wise hart (Hnlycon House, Ne|W
York, $1.94) is one of those boois
which help you to measure yo%ir
own personality and find out a fejp
of the deterrents in your make-up.
The book is divided Into five parts:
Human Engineering; Is Your Per1
sonality Taking Yon Places?;
Techniques for Victory; Corner
stones of Mastery; and Adventures
in Achievement. The chapters
carry such intriguing titles «s
author, never reached the heights
that he should have because "'he
was ahead of his time by thirty
or forty years", and the doors of
symphony orchestras were closed
to him because of Ms color.
David Manues has played with
Walter Damrosch for the New
York Symphony orchestra and the
Wagner Opera company; he has
played the violin as soloist and
iu ensemble; directed a successful
music school; Inaugurated the
famous free concerts at the Met-
ropolitan Museum of Art; taught
music in Harlem, and, through his
efforts at Fisk university, brought
musical education to Negroes. In-
cidentally, he married Clara Dam-
rosch, sister of the famous con
ductor.
David Marines says that his deep
affection for the Negro started
with John Douglas—although lie
was always impressed and moved
when his father returned from
Fisk university—where he was a
trustee—and sold "God, I love
those people!"
He never forgets—anywhere in
the book—or in his life—that he
owed John Douglas something; or
that John Douglas was one of
the people who believed in him,
and whom he just could not dis-
appoint. This allegiunce is buili,
presumably, on the sincerity of
their friendship, a lasting grati-
tude . . . and an appreciation for
the fine qualities which made
John Douglas the fine musician
and man that he was.
The interesting point to keep In
mind is that the author has no
particular axe to grind, and his
book is not intended as an especial
tribute to the Negro. It is an
autobiography. If some members
of our race called forth his espec-
ial respect, it is simply because
here is one white man who admit.i
ho learned a Jot from a Negro.

Dear, dear—all my space is
gone and there are still a few
more books I would like to men-
tion, but I suppose I will have to
leave them until another shelf-
clearing day.
However, I think It's good, once
in n while, to pause and see how
many nice books there are on the
market outside of the highly
publicized ones. Sometimes we
find an obscure title carrying a
message which sticks with us long
after the book of the day has been
buried in the grave of memory.

: SENKti.VMBIAN IN TI1E PENSION PILE . . . The slate solons have
been up in Austin for nigh on the three niontl's, am) up till now very
little actual legislation has been completed. Ti e governor's program
has been in the forefront during the entire session, but for one
reason or another, very little progress has lie.n tii. de toward carry-
ing out, nr abandoning, the O'DanicI "must" list which includes, in
Ihe main, pension liberalization and reorgan ation of the state gov-
ernment.
One of Mr. O'DanitTs favorite issues during his "pass the biscuits,
pappy" campaign was the old age pens'ou question. He advocated,
and promised to put into effect if elected, a pension plan that would
guarantee EVERY man and woman In Texas, over 65 years of age,
WO per month. O'Daniel's opponents took Issue with him, but could
not afford to fight the pension plank too o :enly because thnt would
mean tile possible loss of many of the voles from the old people of
the state. However, one opponent did raise the question as to whether
O'DanicI intended giving EVERY old person J.'iO a month. O'DanicI
never changed Ids statement, and so he was elected and then comes
the legislature to work on this red-hot plan'; in the hill-hilly platform.
The boys wrangled and tyrannled on one thing and another, hut
pensions kept on bobbing up. Looked like I hey didn't want to tackle
this old-nge-pension job, but nobody conld' sc in to figure out why
until the gentleman from up Waco way, ear.ie out in the open anil
proposed a "double standard" pension system. The bill as it
passed the senate this week, sets up two classes of pensioners, class
A and class II. Those in class A are to receive the maximum of
$30 ($15 from state and $15 from federal funds) per month according
to their previous standard of living, and those in class B, well it is
hard to say what the maximum for them will lie, or how tlie amount
to be paid them will be delermir.ed. Though the bill does not say
so, anyone with an ounce of horse sense, and a : nowledge of Texas'
ways, knows that class B means all the V' roes and most of tlio
Mexicans in the state.
The 0'.''anicl promise to givo tlie old folks :;o dollars a month
will finally mean to give a select group of old folks $30, and to hell
with the rest of them. Is such as this democracy?
The "double standard" can hardly be justified by any sano line
of reasoning that is free from plain unadulterated discrimination and
prejudice. Tlie old folks in class B will have to pay just as much
for a sack of Hill-Billy fluur as those in class A will pay; hog-jowl
will cost as much, and molasses and butter and eggs and shirts and
everything eke persons in either group purchase will cost one as
much it does tile other. And on top of that, Ihe small sum of ISO
will provide hardly enough to exist on at the present cost of living,
what would a destitute old person do with say, six dollars a month
when it lakes thirty dollars a month for bis ncirlibor across the
street lo get by on?
A class A and class B pension system Is as discriminatory and
undemocratic as—other "double standard" systems—school, housing,
wagrs, and tlie like. It prefaces the intent of Ihe commonwealth to
provide for Its old people with the phrase "we intend to provide for
better for some than we do the others." This is in no wise Just, when
every man and woman hi Uie state will be taxed equally to provide
the money with which these pensions are paid; tlien every old peraon
should bo treated justly and without d'scrimiraUon because ot race,
color, or creed.

BEAUTY
Most people find beauty among flowers
Or sitting in the moonlight for hours;
Some find beauty iu a sky of blue
Or on a grassy woodlawn covered with detv.
And some find beauty in the golden sky at sunsel,
Or in the quiet breeze nt twilight when candles are li
Or iu a dimple on a sweetheart's clieek.
Or In a prayer so humble and meek.
lieauty, yes beauty in everything wo cannot touch
But there is beauty in ordinary things, that, to us il^n't mern sn :aucfe
We can find beauty in tho food we cci
Beauty in every volume or book,

TODAY ... In 1909, Muihew Heuson, as a roenilxT of the Peary
Polar expedition, stood at the North Pole. Henson is the only man
living today who lufe set foot on the pole . . . The Wheatley traik
t^am depart* for Prairie View and the interscholastic relays. The
local thin-clad* are in high spirits over the remarkable showing made
against the Anderson Yellow jackets iu tlie dual track meet on last
Saturday. They won the $100 Register trophy, most of tlie individual
awards for places, the hitch point cup, and mile relay trophy. The
individual awards were donated by li. A. Adams, «)r., ami tlie other
awards were donated by O. C. Booker. If the boys can do as well
tomorrow down in P. V. as they did last Saturday, the Lion trophy
case ought to be all-a-glitter in the next week or so . . . There is
no doubt in any one's mind that winter is over. That 98 degree
temperature last Sunday was some sort of a record breaker as will
as a sizzling hot April day . . . Speaking of hot weather, we are
rtminded that the fellow who was complaining most about the heat
during the week, was the same guy who was yelling his head ofi
about the gas bill just a few weeks ago . . . Tut, tut, some folks
just can't be satisfied . . . The I'nited States declared war on
Germany on April G, 1917, twenty-two years ago yesterday . . . Today
is Good Friday, (hi this day the Christian world observes the
crucifixion of the (lirist which occurred scnie 1909 years ago ac
cording to our way of reckoning dates. The event is of great signifi-
cance to Christians, and out of it a great lesson is taught; but the
lesson would lie empty if it were not for the sequel to the crucifixion,
tlie Resurrection which is celebrated on Easter Sunday. The fouuda
tion of faith in Christianity is in these two episodes . . . Easter
Sunday is not a fixed date; it is observed by the Christian world as
being the first Sunday after tlie first full moon after the vernal
equinox. This season was selected so that pilgrims traveling to
places of worship from afar off would have moonlight and spring
weather dnring the trip, and. too, the Resurrection Is best demonstrated
when all nature is awakening from the winter sleep. And that is why
Easter is celebrated at this season of the year.
