President Herbert Hoover deliver?
ed the commencenTent address to
graduates of Howard University' at
the Commencement n June the 10.
??IHis was -not?only his lirst app.arance
at this institution but his-tirs
formal address in the colored group1
than any president r.iiuv James
. Buchanan. This seeming ignoring
^ -? one-tenth of the American "proper 1
dees not neccessarlly grow out ot I
lack, of interest or' sympathy or an j
attitude 'of calculuter.! intliff.'jencv
and studied neglect, but is in har
-w'rdf -bis well known policy <u
dealing -with the people as u?vrhrrtr7-1
and not in segments. The Jew, Liu
Catholic and the woman might file
^ a similar, ball ..of - complaint against
.heir President. v
Howard University lias come to.
typify the atonement of the Ameh-..can
people for their aueienc arftl pivfsent
day s:ns against the Negro
race. For fifty years Congress- has
? been -voting liberal-grants'-to thry?in
stitution as a son.,, of sin offering to
appease the national con-cien.e. Hot h
Republicans and Democrats have
ddptc-d this view as payment in .parhis
just due of which he lias been
deprived. The South as well as the
North ha? agree 1 to adopt.-this
stution as a sjep childm>I' the federal
gqy^rnmerit. Only here and then
is heard a feeble v< ice of dissen'
from an occasional die-hard Bourbi.n
of the South. There is no human
likelihood that .Hotvard* University'
will suffer loss of public approval
_i antl" support^ unless its. intended beneficiaries
should frustrate the na
ittg and wrangling \vhi:h make thinational
largeness of nop effect.
Every President isince Grant has
paid this institution the homage ol
a visit except Wilsm\ and 11-ariing.
The press of ^lat'cnal business. must
have caused V\ ilson to break the
.precedent,?He-did, however, del-iver
a commencement address, at Uamp.
ton. The untimely taking off of
Harding undoubtedly accounts for
his non appearance at this national :
Negro institution. Mindful of the.
line of precedents, Mr, Hoover, in his
address, expressed regrets- that the j
press of public business had deprived
him of the coveted opportunity of
visiting Howard during the past three
years of his administration.
In his brief address, Mr. Hoover
simply brought the greeting of the
federal government to Howard University,"-and
upheld the justincation
* of federal grants for the same reason
as sundry of hjpredecessors had
done before hi m Mr. Hoover was
accompanied by .Mrs. lloover, the seqonH
timp that I Tniv.-rsit y has
been honored by thp' presence of the
lady of ,4thq White House. Listen
now to a bit of unknown history. The
first publfc grai\j to Howard I'nivsity
was securer! . under President
Hayes, at a time when both branches
of Congress were heavily Democrati.1.
It so happened that Dr. W. W. Patton,
then- President of Howard University,
was a cousin of President
Hayes. On the occasion of his visit
n fKn TTriivrpr?itvr (w> uhk flppniHnnnl
ed by Mrs. Hayes. The President and
his wife were dinner guests of President
Patton. This Imay have had
something to do y/ith the Original
federal grant to this Negro institution.
/President Patfh'n than lived
next to the Honorable John M. Pangs
tonr 4h? -famous Negro?lawyer and
statesman. On' his way hack to the
White House, the President and Mrs.
