The presentation was made by Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the Interior, and consisted of a gold medal and honorarium of $1,000. In his letter, which was read at the eceremony, President Hoover said, “No man of either race more clearly de- serves such recognition for services that have done so much to increase good will and co-operation in & field where these are indispensable to the common ‘welfare.” Dr. Moton, the first of his race to be #0 honored, is the principal of Tuskegee Institute.

M. C. A. Recently he was appointed by President Hoover as chairman of the commission on education for Haiti. In accepting this award Dr. Moton said, in part: “It is because I have found in others a genuine desire to be just and fair, to be tolerant and sympa- thetic, to be unselfish and self-sacrific- ing, that whatever has been attributed to me has been accomplished. “For all of our boasted civilization;all our wealth, all our learning, all our wonderful inventions, all our power and | influence are worth nothing if people do not know how to live together in peace and good will, to trust cne an- other and to serve one another.” Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, delivered the | principal speech of the evening. Others who participated in the ceremonies ' were the Right Rev. James E.
