Had he Bot studied and laJbored for more than a half century ia the field of ^ucation? Was it not time for him to be honored with a higher degree than puny man could give him? The celestial class of^ 1SS9 has no candidate for graduation more worthy. Cadd Grant O'Kelley waa born during the early and stormy days of reconstruction. Ue knew soi^ething of the struggles thu( go with a poor .boy who tries to obtain an education. Ue knew the tte hardships of his people, and was fttmiliar with theSr mctuevementa. He knew by^ name m many, if not more, families in North Carolina than any other educator of his race. Into their homes he had gone, from time to time, in quest of some worthy'boy or girl #ho wanted an education. Ha took it upon himself to point them to a greater and nobler life. He walked the stra^ht and narrow path, and by hia precepts taught tbeai to follow therein. ^^*rof. O'Xelley was too unselfish to amass m great fortune in accounts, lands and houses. He was too interested in human values to hoard hia earnings. It WTll take no battery of lawyers to settle his estate as designated by his earthly possessions. But all the lawyers in the world cannot estimate par „ evaluate the worth of the estate in human lives that were' made better •nd richer because of his guidance and fatherly touch. It liras a high and lonely road which this noible man traveled. Below him men were^gradvbing. hating, deceiving; envying and dMpising. Prof. O^elley had chosen the road of lov^—love for all mankind. Upon that road he walked ah3 would-not come down. ...iit \ In the stillness and loneliness of his twilight he refused to look at the setting stan and looked forwai'd even a few daya be fore hia death to returning to Qs field oT IMJtir, Hi^ eyes ware to the last turned toward the golden east with' tEe hoye for^ the 'beginning of a new di^y.

AT A A r , The coatinuedL-Jipheavels and unrest at A and T College is an indication that there is somfthing wrong sommhere at that in- atitution. To place one’s finger on t^ exact %pot of-th« trouble ^ more than we are now in position to do. It is our candid opinion that A and T Collega or no other school can forever be in tui^ino^ without eventually bringing dstruction on itself. , We think A and T College is too important to permit it to de- atroy itself on account of internal strife. Hence we trust th«^ per sonnel committee of the board of trustees of the school will nake recommendations at its next meeting that will rid the college of ti.e bone of bontention, wherever it ia, or whoever it concarns. Negro students are~llot easily aroused to the point were they will do violence such as that which occurred at A and T ota the night of May 11 and^ basing our belief on past recorda, the com mittee may find more than the “resignation'' of the school's coach as the fly in the oiqtment. We rather think the coach episode an ugly culmination of many others that preceded it. We .think it would be far cheaper to the tax payers of North Carolina to settle once and for all the trouble at the school by having an inm»stlg«tion made of all phases of tha collagc than ts pennit it to eontinae to operate with inward turmoil and strif*. Because of the location of this newspaper we have to some extent refraimed fr^m making suggestions or entering Into tha discussion of the strfiined conditions which obtain' at«A and T College.. We have not wanted to ba embarrassing Jto cerMn intSr* esta here. ' I, -At wa now see it the A and T College sit^atian naeds soma dcfinitfe and certain action, and we are of thi^ opinion that tha Board of Trustees of ^he institution is now in' psaition to render & great service to the school and the people of North Carolina, If its members will close their eyes to all personal likes and dislikes, hew to the line and let the chips fall where they may. To plaster up the condition will only serve to make it worsa when it breaks out again. ooOO— OOop :,.ln 4>usiness offices, women don't like to b? bos#ed bj^ w6men.

WASHINGTON" We have reaS with soma sur prise the speech of Dr. Howard W. Oduln of tha University of North Carolina, at Tuskegae Institute on IRniay, May 22, in which the speaker constantly referred to t^a lata Dr. Booker T. Washington, founder and first principal of Tu^egae, as “Mr. Washington." 0«r tnr- prise is occarfonad because it is generally thoncht that the sou thern, white man would muctt prefer to call a Negro “Doctor" than ^'Mister." The honorary de gree of “Doctor of Laws" was bestowed upon Booker Wash ington by Harvard University, so in good conscience any one might refer to him as “Doctor Washington.*' i, J : However, to see a southern white man, li6%ral though he is, deliberatftly use tlie term “Mis ter” before N e g r o atudents whan he inlgirt have easily used the commonly accepted term of “Doctor" is last another sign, to us, 9f growing spirit of liber alism in the South. With Sena tor Bilbo currently raving about be will never call Negroes “Mis ter,” and trying to ship them off to Africa, it. is quite encour agi]^ to tiioic of us whs plan to remain here in American and continue the .figlit for improve ment along the old lines to see this relenting o#a point that is still a bone of contention in too many quartera. Wibile he lived, Booker Wash ington wA, to thi southern wKite “Doctor” Washing ton and “Profeuor” Washing ton. It would probably amuse him to know at last, nearly &5 yean after his death, he is pu- bltcil/. before Ifbgro youth, and to a aonthern white maI^,'-*‘Hia- ter” Washington.

With swift verbal strokes, de void of legal phraaeolofy, Dean Taylor “preaenU his case" as follows: “In 1980 the white po pulation of tha United Statea was 1'92,7S6,0S6; the colored popularaUon 11,861,148.

HANCOCK TURKEY OR BOLOGNA T The outstanding fact In tha realm of race relations, is the IlBeral th^iking that is ^kin\g place among the "yo^nger^ gen eration of whites! With att- ness and with candor, they are inclining to t h i n k matters through; and in this we have aS&ndant re$CSoin^ hope. vl%a vonviction is beconiing more ovuwheling that within- * h e near luture the young whites are going to call the young Ndgfoea into conclave . w^emn, and there around the table, in- tamracial matters are a going to be sabjected to acute discuss ion. If the young—Kagro can “talk turkey” that is going to be'a hi^)py day; but T they talk “bologna,** the tide of dis cussion will b» .against them and thetT' cause will suffer great retardation. The ipan^ who does “facjtual thinElng” talks tui*key, and *Ee who does “wishful thinking" talks bologna. For instance, when MuslbUBi invade^ Ethio pia, there were those wlb con- teiided that Haile SeU^ie'a tri bal cohorts had a chai&. It was contended fhat Ethiqpfa’a sur- .viral dated frtjm anfient days r-f and that the Italian lagion could not defeat the courageous ar- mfes of Efhiopia. That was Bologna. Entjiusiaam and cour age are no matches for nciehti- fic* equipmant. That nothing except defeat would come to the tribal armies of Salasaia was clear to all those who apprecia tad the powers of science thaT are being daily muMplied. Again when Japan invaded China, everyifiody saw a “reborn CJuna” withstanding tha Invad ing hordes of the Mikado. Evexy Skirmish gave' occaaion to ex tol the bravery of the Chineae sn3 the brutality of the J^anese. The Japanesa became tha little {Drown Huna with fieodlah pas-! •ions for BTood and booty.

The Negro's literature has been and continues to be a literature of necessity, “motivated by his very practical desire to adjuat himself to the American Environ ment." Re is further limited by the fact^ that he ia writing for a very small Negro reading pu blic and a very much larger white public whose . demands may often differ considerably. Strangely anuogh the fint writera, Hammon and the much batter known Phyllis Whaatlegr, although alaves, had been so wall treated by th^>.:,.^a»ten tliat their attitude toward! sla very's evils was far frotn typi cal of the authors who followed them. Mr. Redding coasidari Phyllis Wbeatl^y and Frederick Douglass the most outstMding in artiirtic ability in^tha period extending through tha i Civil War In tte years of sidjustmant Which followed the war tha figures of Booker T. Washing- >ton and DuBois dominate the able account of Negro litera ture and he shows himselb to >be an excellent critic of both ~ thi early writert and of his contem poraries. This is particularly true of Dr-. DuBois whom the author recognises as a man 'of rare atbilities both artist’c and practical. It has often seemed i'o as that tfie worth of DuBois* writing has been 'overlooked in soma caaea by those who have concentrated on his ideas.

Representing Gaines were Charles Houston of Wariiington, S. R. Redmond and Henry D. Espy of St. Louis. Tha only points for agrument were those not deeded by the United States supreme court, whether or not mandamus was tbe proper remedy and t h e effect of the Taylor bill which malces it mandatory jipon the board of curators of Lincoln to eataibUsh school# to make it equal with tlie University f Missouri, ^e Taylor bill has a companion bill which appropri ate for a pei^od of two yevra a school of law, school of medi cine, journaljsm,^'* business ad- minifltratio^, 'business engineer. ing, mines and a iiMduate school of arts and sciences.. The state university has all of-these schools, and Linc(j|n doos not. Atty. Redmond told the court, there was still no provisi m for legal education of Negroes .ki ^ijiaouri and the* only change brought about by the' Taylcn: bill waa a paper change, vThicb leaves the situationi exactly as it waa when the case was^first tried; that the allegation^ if the petition and the evidenci are as true toBay aa tEey were when this case waa arguel be fore tbe Missouri supremo court and when" \he ■ opinion of this court was reversed y the United States supreme eourt ia 1987. Atty. Redmond^ said, problem is aiflled until “No fettled decide this maffer purely legal basis, m3 not on »>xtrane- ous matters injected by opposing counsel. Negrdee^ have fought thia eala fotif yeafs and it na- ^ cessary will continue on t h e| same legal front four more years -and four timea four to the end till justictf' prevails.” Aitty. Houston told the court hat the question of procedure waa not really up becau«s the original suit was for a writ of mandamus and when the court accepted jurisdiction of tha matter, i t,,, .thereby admitted that mandamus waa the_ proper remedy. \ ■*‘The only time the court can eonsider is the present,” tha lawyer said. “Missouri must ‘ have a law school in iictual operation or ^se admit Gainel to the University of Mi3souri the United States suprems court law school. In no other way ^an mandate be complied with.*' Judge Gantt, oldest member on the bench, asked whether Missouri muat have an actual law school established ' at Lin coln if it is to prevent Gaines from attending the university. Chief Justice'' Tipton asked if counsel for C%inea took the position that the achool muat be in existence now or in Sept. when school opens. Houston rs- plied that the time fur tha court to conaider ia the present time. Then the court aslced if it could not write an opinion which would enable Gaines to go to the University of Missouri law school,' but only on the condition that no law scnool be provided for Negroes in the state by September. Counsel for Gai£ea took the '"^position that the court court not write such a conditional opinion. . ^ An unusual feature of t b ^e ar^ment waa fhe mentioning of the fact to the couit that MitSi Lucillo Bluford of Kanaas City had applied to anger the school of'journalism last Jftnu- ary and waa defied admf^lon by the univeMsity because th^ Gaines case is still pending.
