Royall, in the criminal libel case against the company, heard recently before Judge Crain and a jury in the Court of Special Sessions, takes exception to the report of the trial as published in the issue of The Amsterdam News dated February 21.

The report stated that Mr. Parker testified "that he did not believe that either Royall or Fred R. Moore were upright or honest or interested in the good of the community."

Minister Receives Threatening Letter Statements Concerning Roundup of Vagrants May Cause Trouble. (Preston News Service) MEMPHIS, TENN. March 2. As a result of his statements to the effect that the recent roundup of Negro vagrants by the police department was a good thing for members of his race. Rev. W. C. Graham, has received several letters threatening his life, according to a statement he is alleged to have made to the chief of police. He brought a number of the letters to the police station. Following the raids by the police of vagrants of both races a protest was made to the welfare department of the Chamber of Commerce by members of the interdenominational association of Negro pastors, charging that the police were forcing an exodus of Negroes by their indiscriminate action in connection with the raids. Rev. Graham is said to have praised the action of the police and asserted that by ridding Memphis of worthless Negroes would prove a boon to the lawabiding citizens of the city. He declared that "I am not a traitor to my race as charged, but I am for law and order. The worthless members of both races should be driven out of the city. I will not change my attitude in this matter. This city must be clean. The police department is right in its efforts to rid Memphis of the lawless element in both races." ANDERSON AND JACK- SON WIN IN CHICAGO CHICAGO, March 6—Louis B. Anderson, alderman of the Second ward, defeated T. Arnold Hill, executive secretary of the Chicago Urban League, in the primary elections, here, last week. Robert Jackson won out in the Third ward. The fight in the Second ward was hotly contested. Hill, who had the endorsement of the Municipal Voter's League, ran second. Concerning the result, J. L. Jackson, of the Chicago Defender, writes as follows: Late returns tell us that the effort to "uplift" the voters of the old Second ward failed dismally. All of the brethren who inspired to the crown of Louis Anderson are now wondering just where that broadcasting station is located that relayed to them the call of the people to serve them at $5,000 per year. It is our humble opinion that when you start out to really uplift folks, you have got to mean what you and have the kind of people that want confidence. Uplifters who attempt to play politics by temporarily laying aside the only methods they know are apt to fool themselves rather than the people who handle the ballots and know what they want, even if they do not know what is good for them.

According to a communication received from Floyd J. Calvin, he has been dismissed as associate editor of The Messenger Magazine, edited by A. Phillip Randolph and Chandler Owen, for sentiments expressed in an article printed a few weeks ago in the Amsterdam News, on the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. "The fight between the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Universal Negro Improvement Association has reached such a stage," wrote Mr. Calvin, "that it might not be unwise to impartially review both groups and see what should be preserved and what destroyed in each organization for the best interests of the public at large." He cites this passage as the one which caused his removal, and continues: "As I understand it, Messra. A. Phillip Randolph and Chandler Owen advocate that not only must Marcus Garvey be destroyed, but the Universal Negro Improvement Association as well. To my mind this is unsound. I cannot countance annihilating a whole group merely because the leader of that group comes into disrepute. Surely, the best of leaders may sometimes err—perhaps for a multiplicity of reasons—but it is not logical to presuppose that a majority of their followers have likewise gone astray.

Birth Control Advocate Speaks to Large Audience at Public Library Birth Control Advocate Speaks to Large Audience at Public Library Mrs. Margaret Sanger, whose activities for birth control has brought her wide world attention, spoke last Thursday to a large audience in a meeting held by the North Harlem Community Forum, at the 135th St. Branch Public Library. She spoke on her recent trip to the Orient and told of her work in general. The women of China and Japan are very keen for their emancipation, she said, much more so than American women. "I am deeply disappointed in the women of America," she said, "they have the vote but have accomplished almost nothing toward their emancipation." Too Many Children. "The women of the Orient are retarded by having too many babies," she said, "and they are beginning to understand this. They are eager for birth control. When I landed in Yokohama a delegation of Japanese women came to see me and their spokesman said, 'When your message came it was the light that we had long sought in vain.' Even the rickha man welcomed my message. Out of 195 leading newspapers it carried from page articles about birth control. Of course, the Japanese Government is opposed to it." She told of pathetic instances of American mothers who had applied to her for birth control information and of how she could not help because of the law preventing the dissemination of such information. She said 6,997 mothers had applied to her for information. Rich Have Birth Control. "American women are divided into two classes," said the speaker, "those who have birth control and those who have not. Rich women can get all the knowledge on subject they want, and if it is good for them it is also good for the poor, who cannot afford to live large families, like the rich. "Mankind has always practised birth control. Infanticide and foe-ticles date back to the earliest ages. In ancient Greece, Egypt and Sparta unwelcome babies were exposed for 48 hours and if they survived were permitted to live. In China today girl babies are thrown into the canals. The modern spate of birth control aims to restrict excessive populations in a humane war.

CITY INA as Police Listen - Game Sheriff Shot CRAZED BY DRINK, HE KILLS WIFE Baltimore Man Brutally Murders Wife With Hatechet; Threatens Life of His Son; "She Nagged Me," He Says. BALTIMORE, March 6—Crazed by "bootch" and with the obsession that an evil spell had been cast over him, William Cole, Sr., 601 Greenwillow Street, wife to death with a hatchet on last Sunday morning. "She nagged me," he is claimed to have exclaimed, "and I killed her." Policemen from the Northwestern District found the woman lying on the bed covered with a sheet after her son, William Jr., had rushed into the police station and stated that his father had chased him from the house after chopping up his mother and that he had seen several of her teeth lying on the floor. Brutal Crime. When taken to the University Hospital, Mrs. Cole was found to be dead with numerous cuts and contusions about her body. Practically all of her teeth had been knocked from her mouth and her jaw bone had been broken. On other parts of her body were evidences of the violence with which her murderer had wielded the instrument of death. According to the story of William Cole, Jr., the son, he was on the third floor of the home when the altercation began. He heard screams followed by a struggle and rushed down to see what the trouble was. He found his father dragging his mother up the stairs by her hair. When the crazed man saw him, he said, he locked his hold on his mother and started for him. Fearing for his life, the boy broke out the front door and made his way to the police station. First Denies Killing When arrested by police, Cole at first denied killing his wife, staring she fell down the stairs. He had carried her back to the second floor to her bed room and had carefully covered her with a sheet and had washed the blood from his own clothing. When shown the bloody batchet and several teeth found on the floor of the basement, the police say he confessed. --- Scattered over the entire basement of the house were mute evidences of the struggle in the form of bits of clothing and blood. When found on the bed by Sergeant Schamberg and Patrolman Schmidt, the body was nude. It was in evident fear that his son would summon the police that Colo made an effort to attack him, and but for his good fortune in escaping from the house he might have met the same fate of his mother. Drink and Superintition Cause. That bootleg whiskey was the direct cause of the crime was established when Cole stated to officers that he had been "drinking a little ale." He also stated that his wife had been nagging him, and that her sister had cast a spell over him which made him commit the crime. While there were no eye witnesses to the crime, Cole, having locked the door, a number of people heard the struggle. At a hearing Monday morning Cole was held for the action of the Coroner and charged with the crime.

MEXICO CITY, MEX., Mar. 5. Alarmed at the headway being made by the colored people of the United States in acquiring vast land holdings in Mexico, and the migration of thousands of colored farmers to the Mexican Republic, it is alleged that the white oil interests through their press agency, the Chicago Tribune Foreign News Service, is sending out propaganda to the daily papers slating that colored colonists are not wanted in Mexico, and that President Oregon objected to the colored people upon the grounds that they were not good prospective colonists on account of "the ethnic problem." The opposition of the oil interests is chiefly against permitting the colored people to colonize in the Tampico and San Luis Potosí districts, which are in the heart of the Mexican oil belt. On January 25 a colony of Oklahoma colored people started for Sard Lula Potosí, in the heart of Tropical Mexico. Other colonies have gone to the Santa Clara Valley district on the west coast of Mexico for 20 million barrels in Los Angeles, Cal. In this district the Lower California & Development Co. of Los Angeles, a Negro Corporation, owns and controls a vast estate of over 5,000 acres of valuable farming, mining and oil lands. In spite of the opposition of the oil interests, this movement is open up the fertile valleys of Lower California to the colored people has the hearty support of not only President Obregon, but of the Mexican Government as a whole, the Chamber of Commerce of San Diego and Los Angeles, Cal. and other influential interests. President Obregon Meets Negro Delegation. In July, 1922, President Obregon met a delegation of 22 colored citizens of the United States headed by Attorney Hugh Macbeth of Los Angeles, and Mr. J. B. Key of Okmulgue, Okla., and stated in person to them "That Mexico has no color line and the Mexican Constitution forbids race distinction on the ground of race, color, creed or degree of wealth." At Ensenada, Mex., the delegation was welcomed by the Mayor, who said, "Mexico offers the greatest opportunity and future to any people on the face of the earth. We are inviting the American Negro to come and cast his lot with us, not because we know that he is mistreated, and injustly dealt with in his own land, but because we believe in the development of commerce, agriculture, and trade in our own country, he will be fair enough to take some and leave some and not try to take all, as some Americans have done in the past." Entertains Delegation in Capital. President Obregon received the colored delegation cordially at the "Mexican White House" and promised his support and that of the government to any legitimate colonization movement that would be a desirable element of American Negroes into Mexico. He was especially interested in the colonization phase, justified by the Lowland Plains & Development Co. in building up the fertile valleys of the district adjacent to the great Mexican Pacific seaport, Ensenada, 60 miles by auto from San Diego, Cal. Christian Dal Prado, 23, of 120 East 34th street, said that he was at the corner of 135th street and Fifth avenue at 1.15 a.m. m. last Sunday when Williams came up and begged him for a dime. He started to put his hand into his pocket to give it to him, he said, when another man rushed up to him, and Williams went through his pockets threw him to the ground, while taking $60. Benj.

Residents Better Behaved in 1922 Convictions For Intoxication, Though, Jump to Nearly 11,000. ALBANY, March 6.—New York State residents were better behaved last year than during 1921. But there is still room for improvement. While bookkeepers, jailitors, reporters, pugilists and waiters showed a big improvement last year, to the extent at least of not being convicted in courts, printers, paperhangers, farmers, stographers, and even undertakers apparently were more inclined than ever to cut capers. A total of 54,457 persons were convicted last year in courts of record and special sessions, as compared to 55,116 in 1921 and to 40,691 in 1920. A report covering convictions the past year, made by Secretary of State James A. Hamilton to the Legislature, presents some interesting comparisons. In courts of record, convictions for violation of the liquor tax law jumped from 218 in 1920 to 691 in 1921 and to 1,645 in 1922. During the same three year period, burglary convictions went from 948 to 1,278, dropping to 1,140 last year. In courts of special sessions, convictions for intoxication jumped from 5,287 in 1920, to 10,291 in 1921, and to 10,900 last year. Misdemeanors went from 20,884 convictions in 1920, to 26,791, dropping back to 25,180. Convictions for vagrancy numbered 1,398 in 1920, going to 3,631 on the following year, but decreasing to 2,408 in 1922. Out of 10,784 persons convicted, Secretary Hamilton's report shows that no less than 9,590 were convicted on their own confession, leaving 1,194 convicted on trivial. Fifteen actors played to a courtroom audience, and were convicted last year, as compared to eleven the year before. A single author received a sentence rather than a royalty. No less than 85 bakers left their dough, as compared to 63 the year before. Barbers numbering 110 cut a wide swath and became convicted, as against 81, while 120 bartenders stood in front of the bar of justice in place of 55 back in 1921. Bellboys were certainly in bad last year with 74 convicted to one the year before. One newspaper-man was convicted to three in 1921. No less than 101 printers faced sentences in comparison to 69 who were convicted in 1921. e Courts box each for a hearing on March 7 when charged by Detective Lunt of the Third Inspection District with violation of the liquor law.

Here, she said, she met a man who represented himself as the agent, and after showing her apartment 14, collected a month's rent, giving her a receipt. Since then she said that she was unable to get possession of the flat or to find the man who had rented it. A summons was issued for the janitor. James Dickson, 42, a chauffeur, of 28 West 134th street was charged with operating without a hack driver's license. "He had a license a year ago," said the officer. "That means he has only the expiration now," said the magistrate, $ HATS For WOMEN MISSES & CHILDREN We Make Our Own Models SALE ALL WEEK New Models Daily, from $1.98 to $6.98 C. A.

Industries in the North Making No Preparations to House Negro Labor One Concern Brought 1160 Men Into Small Town Without Making Accommodations for Them—Industrial Secretary Advises Colored People to Stay South Until Homes Can Be Made Available PITTSBURGH, Pa., March 6.—The unusual response, especially from all parts of the South in nearly 1,000 letters caused by a Preston News Service interview with the Executive Secretary of the local Urban League has rather embarrassed the secretary, and he has issued the following statement: "The interview referred to, emphasized the large increase in the demand throughout the Pittsburgh District for Negro labor in the mills, mines and foundries. In order to intelligently advise the thousands of Negroes who are waiting for the proper opportunity to come North, Mr. Clark communicated with 16 of the large corporations in the District to find out if they were planning in turn to increase the number of houses to accommodate the extra number of Colored men that they were seeking to employ. Only one concern replied stating that they were building 26 houses but these houses upon completion would be taken by the men who are already in their employ with their families in the South waiting to be transported. SALE--NEWEST SPRING TRIMMED MILLINERY "The Urban League feels that the supply of Colored labor alone will have to meet the industrial needs in the immediate future and that industry will make proper provisions to accommodate this labor if Negroes will not flock North until organization like our own can induce the industries to make proper preparations to accommodate them. Evil to the Race "Several concerns have already begun to send their representatives South to bring large numbers of Negroes North. One concern brought 1160 men onto one small industrial community in 60 days without building a single house or making any added preparations to accommodate these men. This congestion has caused a tremendous amount of sickness, disease and immorality. Real estate men who handle the property largely occupied by Colored people have advised the secretary of the Urban League that there is not a single house available to Negroes in the Harlem's Most Exclusive Millinery Shop Pittsburgh district vacant today. Rooms, usually with some other person, can be had from $2.50 to $7 per week. With wages averaging about $4 a day there is little advantage in coming North and having to meet such unusual expenses. "Especially does the Urban League insist that men do not bring their wives and families at this time, because of the serious shortage of houses; and yet on the other hand the League's workers in various Courts have come in contact with too many cases where men away from their families have become careless, irresponsible, gamers and drunkards. "To come North with your family is a serious matter; but to come without your family is more than a serious matter. For instance; last week a man brought his wife and four children with him from Virginia. He spent the first day in Pittsburgh without getting accommodations; towards evening he went to a suburban town and could OPEN EVENINGS T Sper IGO WEST --NEW IMED ew Season Harlem's Mill Sperling's 160 WEST 125TH ST.

After making many attempts to get accommodations in the city, the next day he was finally sent by a coal mining company to their mining town some miles away where two rooms were provided for him and his family. This man could have obtained work here in Pittsburgh in 50 different places. South Can Help Situation. "The situation can be helped if the more reliable, solid element in the South can induce our people to remain'South until they are definitely connected up with a job and with prospects of getting a house to transfer their family life rather than come up here alone usually breaking up their families." DISAPPEARANCE OF DR. SPIVEY DISCUSSED WASHINGTON, March 6.—The disappearance of Dr. H. P. Spivey, a dentist, 801 Florida avenue, is still being discussed here. Dr. Spivey's disappearance was discovered by patients coming to his office for treatment. On not being able to find him, an investigation was started and it was found that the dentist had mysteriously disappeared. It has been rumored that the possible cause for this action is due to the fact that the doctor and his wife were in a bitter fight for a divorce. Dr. Spivey filed a bill in Alexandria alleging desertion, and she filed a bill in Washington alleging adultery. Dr. Spivey was an instructor in the Dental Infirmary at the Howard Medical School until his resignation last week. SOUTH MUST FACE IMMIGRATION QUESTION ATLANTA. GA.. March 6—"The growing industrial development of the South, the alarming exodus of Negroes to North and West is accompanied by immigration problems which the southern business men will have to face in a few years", declared Edwin Tomlison in ap address before the Kiwis Club there last Tuesday afternoon. He urged the business men of the South to study the immigration situation which is growing in importance in southern states to be able to cope with the facts when the changed conditions actually come.

All of the men were employees in a Gary steel mill. Robert H. Green, 21, of 163 West 129th street was held in $500 bail for Special Sessions when arraigned last Monday charged with the theft of a suit and overcoat from William Spencer, 60 St. Nicholas avenue. Spencer testified that Green called at the above address where he is employed as fireman on December 30, and stayed there from 10 a. m. until 6 p. m. and that when he, Spencer returned to the room after calling on a friend at West 114th street, that Green was gone, and so were the coat and overcoat. Green pleaded not guilty, and said that Spencer, who was drunk all the day in question had asked him to stay and tend the fires until he got sober. He further declared that many friends of the complainant had visited the room while the latter was intoxicated.

Bolden Made Chairman of Eastern Colored Baseball League Philadelphian Has Been Fourteen Years at the Head of the Well Known Hilldale Team of Quaker City. PAGE FOUR Packe New York Colored T Game Against Thousands Pack Common Clash: Between Star Wh The unusual took place here in New York last Sunday evening when thousands of colored people, with a good sprinkling of whites, packed the Commonwealth Casino to overflowing to witness the basketball game between the Commonwealth Big Five and that unbeatable combination of whites known as the Original Celtics. From early evening until the game was started a constant flow of humanity weeded its way to the now popular seat of athletics in our midst, and when the whistle that sent the contending armies on their way to "do or die," those Celtics had the pleasure of witnessing the kind of enthusiasm they seldom see although they are constantly appearing before thousands of their own people and winning. CONSTANTLY. Manager Furey of the Celtics stopped the start of the game for a few moments while he insisted that the teams play A. A. U. rules in the first half and the accepted rules now being used by the majority of the professional teams in the second half. Captain Jenkins readily agreed to the conditions when the matter was placed before Jess McMahon and what would have been a hitch if a certain colored out of town team had been in the Celtics place faded into nothingness and the game was not delivered. The wonderful work of the Celtics for the past few years made many believe that they would enjoy a walk away victory over the local team, but they reckoned not with the improvement of our boys since they entered the arena with the professionals and the score of 424 proves that our boys were in their fighting and had they copped the many fouls which were called against their opponents the take now being told would have been somewhat different. Commonwealths drew first blood when they battled at the start and got a foul on Celtics. From then it was a game with our boys getting the taste of real basketball Bolden Made Chair Colore Philadelphian Has Been For the Well Known Hilldale Philadelphia has set the pace by being the birthplace of Eastern organized colored baseball. This is really due to the sterling efforts and reliability of Edw. Bolden. It is the consensus of opinion that no other manager of color could have called such a powerful aggregation together and whipped them into a concrete organization, holding the guiding hand through constitutional tilts, and emerging as head with everybody satisfied pledged to work untruly for the success of the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs. A Human Dynamo. For nineteen years Bolden has been a clerk in the Central Post Office in Philadelphia. The past fifteen years has seen him hold an efficiency record for case examination and floor-work, unsurpassed and seldom equalled. Without neglecting Uncle Sam, he sacrificed time and energy enough to develop baseball to its present status around Philadelphia. This man's unselfishness put quite a few stockholders on salary, and has developed a race corporation that not only loads in Pennsylvania, but is held up as a beacon light to other organizations all over the country. Bolden is rounding out his twentelfth year in the Government service, is chairman of the Eastern Colored League, a two-year Governor of the Philadelphia Baseball Association, is president of the Hildale Corporation and manager of its crack team. Bolden started from the ground floor, and constant application has made him well versed in everything pertaining to baseball. His ability to handle business from the sale of the first ticket until a triumphant team closes the season, is never questioned. Unassuming at the home grounds and on the road, few people know him by sight. It has then said, "Let people find out who you are and they will remember you longer." Signs New Captain. John H. Lloyd, who has played ball, from coast to coast and in Canada and Cuba, will be field general, and judging by the way star athletes are flocking to the Eastern organization, will no doubt lead the strongest team in Hilldale's history. More effort in schooling players to planes of Greater efficiency and promoting individual and team fighting spirit is essential to successful baseball will be put forth. Basketball Baseball Football d Audi Team in Brilliant World's Champions wealth Casino to Witnessite Giants and Gullivers. from the Giants against whom they shaped up like so many Gullivers. Although taking many fouls they kept our players from making more than two baskets in the first half. Slocum played a wonderful game against great odds, for the referred, who, by the way, was the Celtics own man without whom they would not even think of arguing in this not even think of engaging in this game, had a trick of throwing up the ball which no opponent of the Celtics would be able to overcome and which went by unnoticed by more than half that gathering as it is an art which is not easily acquired and one wherein the Celtic referee can use to good perfection. In the second half with the score 23-15 in favor of the Celtics, Captain Jenkins and his men came from the rear with a rush and although within striking distance of the Celtics throughout the game, this rally brought them to 23 with with the Celtics barely nosing by with 24. That experience which means much to any team came to rescue of the big white players and they drew away from their colored opponents to a safe lead which they maintained to the finish. The Celtics found themselves in one of their hardest games when they played the McMahon players and they so confessed after the final whistle blew. The score of 41-29 does not tell the tale of the hard fight the white boys had to win. Final. Jenkins, Hubbard, Moton and Siocum played the entire game for the Commonwealth and did not call "time out" once. LOENDI WILL PLAY US. "Cum" Posey, who came to New York Sunday to witness the game at the Commonwealth Casino, arrived in town minus the "winner-take-all" slogan. The Loendi team of Pittsburgh, after weeks and weeks of dickering, decided to meet the Commonwealth Elgie in Pittsburgh on March 16, and in a return game here. March 18, Commonwealth plays Perth Amboy at the home court here this Sunday. man of Eastern ed Baseball League urteen Years at the Head of the Team of Quaker City. Cockrell Loyal to Hillidele. Phil Cookell, "the pitching wonder," who is wintering at Palm Beach, Fla., received a flattering lotter from Rube Foster. The letter is in Ed Bolden's hands and Phil declares he will stick with the Hillidele team and support his present manager, who has spent more money en, and has given more consideration to. ball players than any other.

March 2—Under heavy guard to prevent his escape. Battling Sikl, light heavyweight champion of the world, goes forth to his bout with Mike McTigue in Dublin on St. Patrick's Day. Skii has heard stories of doings in Ireland on that great day in which Marquis of Queensbury rules are ignored as English shackling of the right of free expression. Also he has been tolled once he gets to Ireland the British authorities will never let him come back to the boulevards. So, with the picture of what might be expected to happen to a Senegalese who fights a man named McTigue in Dublin on March 17, the champion decided to fortify his drooping spirits with a little strong water. He kept doing it for a couple of days and then tried to show how bad he was by pulling up the Gare St. Lazarey by the roots. He was forcibly restrained and taken back to his hotel. Here he took more cautious counsel with himself and quietly slipped away home. He was brought back with his wife, but at 2 in the morning was found missing. This time his manager called in three or four huskies, and under their watchful eyes, propelled by their strong arms. Battling Sikl is to go to the wars. He calls Sunday, if the guard doesn't waken.

Sorry S. T. Thought your letters By ROMEO L. DOUGHERTY ses Fal DR. GITTENS Another Well Known Athlete Died With the Passing of Once Famous "Speedboy" Upon our arrival from Philadelphia on Sunday evening we found an announcement from Messrs Cecil E. Carter and Robert L. Douglas telling of the death of Dr. Oscar Gittens, whose funeral services were held at 12:30 of the same day at St. Philip's Church. This mourning announcement and their attendance at the funeral services and accompaniment of the body to its last resting place was the final tribute of the Spartan Field Club of this city to one of its most loyal members. As a youngster, Dr. Gittens was a member of that famous hunch of basketball players rounded into top-notch form by the late Harry Trott and known as the "Speed-boys." In their day they lived up in every way to the name, and few indeed were the teams willing to face them after they had taken the leading ones into camp and overwhelmed them by scores which made their rivals look foolish. In later years Dr. Gittens attended Howard University, and to him is due much credit for the success which later attended the famous Washington Girls' team, led by Lillian Skinker. It was Dr. Gittens who, on one of his trips to New York, induced the writer to become interested in the team of the Young Women's Christian Association of Washington with Dr. Hudson Olliver, now a practicing physician in this city, acting as manager.

BUFFALOES DEFEAT ALPHA MOGULS BY BIG SCORE Last Friday night at St. Mark's Hall, Geo. Halston's Buffaloes defeated Alpha Moguls by a score of 60-22. The Moguls presenta their strongest line-up of Waddell-Carroll, Wilson, Monroe and Nanton. The Buffaloes started off with De Suzin. Monroe, Gregory, Carter and Kirby. Tucker made the first point of the game, but Gregory soon tied the score. Thereafter three shots in rapid succession by Carter Monroe and De Suzie soon put the Buffaloes in the lead. The score at half time was Buffaloes, 18; Alpha, 6. Before 30 seconds of the second half had elapsed Carter scored a basket, quickly followed by a beautiful long shot by Curby. After that it was easy for Harlem's Wonder Team to further humilate the Moguls, the Buffaloes' mascot, Gooch, scored three baskets. PROHIBIT BILLIARDS. COLUMBIA, S.

We have secn a num- ber of colored shows headed for Broadway dropping out of the race and making the most undignified retreats on account of those backing ‘them refusing to look the truth of things tquarely in the face and acting accordingly. : : “How Come” is a show written by a membor of the younger gonera- tion of colored performers and his book gives promise of bringing him to the fore as a writer of no mean ability. His work Is alto of a high order, and from what we havo seen of Mr. Grisman, the: man respon- tible for whipping the production Into shape for its entrance on the “Big Street” known as Broadway, we fear that he is working under a handicap that bodes Ill, We have watched this Mi. Grisman carefully and came to the concluslon that he too 1s perfectly aware of this state of affairs, but he simply smiles with an understanding that tells us he is far from sharing the opinion of those who are seeking to keep from the show the songs in line with the offering. We have heard that Mr. Ben Harris is the author of these numbers ‘which are as far away, from what we see and hear of the comedy, as the two poles, and we mean the North and South Poles, so as not to give anybody the chance for an argument by hastily grabbing two bar- Bershop poles and putting them together for the sake of an argument, With all due respect to the ability of this gentieman, we fear that he loses sight of the fact that the song numbers for the kind of show Jwhich he hopes to bring to Broadway should be tn keeping with the production. Sincare in his desire to back a colored production, ho allowed Eddle Hunter to furnish the book, but apparently he has drawn the line on colored writers furnishing the song numbers. This is where he makea a mistake, If the story which we heard from attaches of the house where the show Is now piaying is true; for we doubt serlously if MMe, Harris or any man of the opposite race ‘can putginto the numbers [those tilting, haunting melodies which is the very sBul of the colored brother—meiodies which, when-the writers work In coltaboration with the writer of the book, means so much to musical offerings by our people. Henry Creamer or any of the other well-known song writers tan put together numbers overnight that would make those jarring ‘sounds wo heard at the Dunbar fade from. the face of the earth with a mournful sigh. {Thi le our personal opinion. and we hope if these few tines should |reach Mr. Harris he will accept them in the spirit in which they are iwritten. We would like to sec his show hit our town with all things combining to make it a success, and while we can lay no claim to being a critic of things musical, be they sentimental, jazz or classic, we have heard the opinion of some people in a position to know, and we are not so far removed we, éannot, tell when a strain carries that popular and swaying thrill that will make audlences like it. Songs touching |ana appertaining to the action of the show will aid materially In mak: Ing “How Come” something worth while. Mr. Harris's inspiration, if lhe haw any, for writing songs for this all-Negro show, is something | acauired, white the colored men will come to him with songs which come from hearts that truly féel the joy and sorrows of the race to |which they belong. | __ At times somo of the white song writers turn out numbers that go very well, ao far as we are concerned, but you will have to look a tong | distance before you could find any of them able to turn out the kind of music for colored shows which helped to-make “Shuffle Along," the Leubrie Hill.

Dougherty, # | Sporting Editor The New York Amsterdam News, Dear Sir: . Kindly publish the following an as answer to Mr. Bell's letter which Jappeared In the Sportive Spotlight of last week's Amsterdam News. | Before going any further, we would Ike to impress, strongly upon Mr. Bell's mind the fact that, after today we will refuse to discuss or |explain anything that may have happened on Feb. 9, 1923, as we find it rather difficult to uphold for such a lengthy period, the ignorant argu- mente forced upon us by a fevr sympathetic followers of the “Deers.” |__ The greater part of the letter, dealing with what Mr. Beli terma as, feted nasty and Kilotic actions” of the Blue Belt A. C.. have been Ignored an we consider these remarks to be entirely out of keeping with the present controversy and would also like him to know that the old but true aying, “When ignorance is bliss, ‘tls folly to be wise,” has not [been forgotten by us, hence our willingness to ignore, ° | Mr. Hulewoud as our manager can book games and arrange all financial matters, but he Cannot compel the team to go on the floor any more than can Mr, Bell touch the money made at any game staged bY the “Deere,” when ordered to leave same alone. Draw the comparison, Mr. Bell, from the above statement and decide.for yourself who are the right ones to accuse for the refusal to play Misa Winaton, or any other course of action that we may find it necessary to take when’ dealing with similar cases. : Our only reason for barring the sensational Washington player Is quite unlike that of Mr. Bell's makeup. It was simply this; When try- Ing for the championship among the colored girle' teams’ of New York. we have never thought of collecting players fromthe neighboring cities ]with the hope of strengthening our combination and, accordingly, will not under any consideration agree to play any team, which makes it their particular business to Import a player regardless of who sho may be or how much sald player is advertised, when they're called upon to secure thelr rights to the Champlonship of New York, The principles of pure sportsmanship Ia referred to repeatedly by the writer, Can Mr. Bell take an impartial view of the situation and stilt consider htmeeif a promoter of pure sportsmanship? No, not if every side of the problem is looked at squarely, A great deal of unnecessary importance is being attached’ to the fact that Miss Kahl, a regular of the Manhattan Lassies, appeared | againat us In a “Roosevelt Center” uniform. For the benefit of Mr. Bell who seems to be terribly wrought up about this Incident, we wish to Inform him that “Blué Bolts” were fully aware of the fact, as we wore told when the team arrived at St, Mark's Hall they would be compelled to use an extra girl, as, on account of illness, thoir regular center could not be at her usual position. Blue Belts agreed to play as a champlon- ship between white and colored Girls’ teams has never and seemingly will never be questioned. ferhaps Mr. Bell can answer the following: Did the Misses Harris, Pollard and Rlchardson, members of a team which has for ite motte "True Sportsmanship," refuse to play on an all star team for the enticing a? Five’ Dellare (35.00)? - ‘as it fair to take away all the credit rightfully belonging to Mise Harris, who was always considered the star playor of the N.

He's quoted as saying: * “Of course, we arrest a much larger proportion of Negroes than that, but most of them are in for petty crimes which do not warrant making finger prints and ‘mugging’ them. You would be surprised. how- ever. to find how law abiding the Negroes of the city realiy are. Many people think them a turbulent element. As a matter of fact, we do not have as much trouble with them as with certain'classes of whites.” Only 56 of the prinoners were women of whom only 2 were color- ed women. ‘ ?

The name of the writer which is signed to the letter is withheld because it is feared the person's safety would be endangered were the name made public. The letter says in part: For the last month or two the white people have been putting the Negro to flight out of several towns in Georgia—about the time their crops were ready for gathering they began—some were run away from home with their crops standing in the fields ready to gather—hence white people went to their houses and gave them notices to leave in so many days and on other instances notes were written and signed by, as indicated, K. K. K., and intimidated them so that lots of them left their homes furnished just as they were while they were at home. Some with their houses cleaned up, beds made up and everything done as though they were at home—they left their homes with nothing but they were wearing and at a case and sometimes not that. One family had to flee through the snow, snow, cold, wade and swim the streams and at last arrived here in Chattanooga for everyone one, in less than two months, from exposure they received in making their escape from their pursuers. One man who had a nice automobile drove up to a filing station where he had always lived, to have his car killed, the man in charge asked him who the car belonged to, and he replied that it belonged to him. Then the oil man ordered him out of his own car saying that it no longer belonged to him—telling him that he got no oil from that station to move a car that belonged to him, and told him to leave the country. For weeks it was a most pitiful sight to see people travelling over this city by drove almost—through the rain and cold—with little bundles, suit cases, early in the morning and late at night, forlorn, hungry, cold and nowhere to go. They slept anywhere they could get to sleep and ate anything they could get—an organization contributed toward their food for several weeks. Several hundred of these people settled here in Chattanooga and its vicinity, mostly in South Chattanooga. Athens, Ga., almost all the colored people were run away and they were run out of Jessup, Ga., around in the neighborhood of northern Georgia near Summerville, and Lafayette, which is near the line of Chattanooga. TRUCK DRIVERS FIND BODY OF MRS. RAMSEY The dead body of Mrs. Ida Hamsey, 41 Orange street, Newark, was found with a bullet wound in the head, on a lonely road near Pascalle avenue, Kearny, by two truck drivers Saturday. The bullet apparently was fired into the left ear, coming out at the right eye. Her fingers were badly scratched, but no other signs of violence were found. The woman's shoes had been removed and placed beside the body, with her hat and vanity case. Her clothing was neatly arranged. Mrs. Hamsey had been missing two days from her home in Newark.

WHITE BRUTALITY IN AFRICA CHARGE Responsibility Said to Rest on the Union Government. CAPETOWN, March 4.—Further inquiry is demanded into the recent flogging of natives in Southwest Africa, special responsibility for which is said to rest upon the Union Government by virtue of its mandate under the League of Nations. Two fragrant cases have just come to light. In one, two white men were acquitted of a charge of fatally thrashing a Huronent with a crocodile whip soaked in brine, owing to conflicting evidence. In the other Mr. Oberholzer, a member of the administrator's advisory council, and Mr. Nellilers, his assistant, are now charged with thrashing four natives because, being hungry, they killed a cow. The evidence shows that the natives were flogged from 9 in the morning until noon. Mr. Oberholzer in his defense said he took the law into his own hands, as he was 66 miles from the nearest magistrate. Judgment is to be delivered to day. The Cape Argus in commenting the case, says that the evidence recalls the painful days of German rule, when natives were flogged mercilessly. MRS. PAULINE SNOWDEN LOSES HER MOTHER Mrs. Eliza Jackson Passes Away After Long Illness.

AFRICANS LOOK TO U.S. FOR HELP AFRICANS LOOK TO U.S. FOR HELP C. Kamba Simango and His Wife, Both Well-Educated Africans, Speak at Hampton Institute. "Those Who Go to Africa Must Have Big and Generous Hearts." HAMPTON, VA., Mar. 6—C. Kamba Simango, a native of Portuguese East Africa and a graduate of Hampton Institute, class of 1919 who has just completed a special course at Teachers College, Columbia University, spoke recently in Ogden Hall. Hampton Institute, on African forms of government, police systems, education, and physical training. "Africans," he said, "in spite of the lack of highly organized police systems, succeeded in apprehending wrongdoers. They follow the customs and laws which are useful to their tribes, but they do not carry their rules beyond their tribes to so-called 'aliens.'" The Lot of African Women. His wife, who is a native of Freetown, Sierra Leone, and who is a graduate of the Royal College of Arts at South Kensington, England, described the affection of African mothers for their children, especially for those children that are offered in human sacrifice for the sake of bringing peace to whole tribes, and likened this affection to that expressed by other mothers who send their sons to fight in modern warfare. She referred to the hardship which is brought on African women through the government conscription of able-bodied men for forced labor. "There are today," she said, "226 different languages and over 900 dialects spoken in Africa." At another Hampton Institute meeting Kamba Smango gave, in appropriate African costume, vivid pantomime presentations of an elephant hunt, a witch doctor's incantations, and a leopard-killing. His wife described several phases of African life, gave an African dance with piano music (originally written by Coleridge-Taylor and later arranged by Helen Hagen) which was played by R. Nathaniel Dett, and displayed specimens of native African work in brass, textiles, and basketry, which had been made by men and women who had not come in contact with outside civilizing influences. She said: "Africans Judge Persons "The Africans need help in order to develop themselves, but they also have important contributions which they can make to the rest of the world, especially in the fields of art and music. "Those who go to Africa must have big, generous hearts. The natives are keen at detecting all insincerity or failure to make works and deeds consistent. The African native judges individuals. He does not put many persons in a single group because of the failure or even meanness of a single individual. Africans are carefully watching American Negroes to see what they will do to help Africa." These two well-educated Africans will leave the United States in April to take up their work or missionary teaching in the Mt. Silinda School, at Melsetter in Southern Rhodesia, where they will help the native people realize some of their worthwhile gifts. Africana Make Progress That the missionaries who have gone to Africa have given the natives the best that they possessed of religion and civilization and that these missionaries continue their work or bringing out the best traits of the natives were opinions expressed by Kamba Simango before a large audience of white and colored people, assembled at Ramptoh Institute. He said: "We find that the African is also striving and reaching out to get those things which will develop his happiness and welfare. "In 1920, I understand, the Government of Southern Rhodesia started two industrial schools. They have tried to interest missionaries to develop industrial education to such an extent that the natives will use the material they have for commercial purposes.

FIND NOTHING GOOD IN NORTH, NEGROES RETURNING STATE Bring Mother's Corpse Back to Greenwood and Tell of Hardships There follows an interview with one of the Negroes alleged to have returned, with the following paragraph introducing it: Undertakers here say that many of the dead are being brought back from the North, particularly from Philadelphia and other cities of the North. All of these are the corpses of Greenwood Negroes who have been lured to their death in the North by stories of high wages and easy living conditions. Not a week passes that the trains from the North don't bring back its long, sealed boxes, bearing the bodies of Greenwood Negroes who have succumbed to the hardships of the North. The final paragraph of this newspaper article is as follows: In spite of the hardships which they have to undergo in the North, Negroes from this section are still flocking Northward. A number went last night and a large number went on the Saturday before. Many of them go to Philadelphia, which is even colder than Washington, where Robert White's mother died of pneumonia, and some of West Undertakers say that a certain per cent may be expected to come back for burial before the winter is over.

Nws of Churches, Fraternities, and Organizations Assistant Pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church Flays Rent Profiteers The three big audiences listened to *gtrong*, practical sermons Sunday. Long before Dr. Powell began preaching from the subject, "The Power of a New Testament Church," at the morning service the ushers were turning people away for lack of standing space. Dr. Bushell and his famous chorus were present in the afternoon. Everybody was helped by both the eloquent preaching and inspiring singing. Rev. Payne, the assistant pastor, struck the Harlem profiteers in general and the rent gongers in particular, a masterly blow, at the evening service. He said that many of these were buying houses in which white people live for the purpose of routing them to colored people at twice the rental that the white tenants were paying. A case was recited where the white tenants were paying $30 and $35 and that a colored man, who called himself a Christian, bought the house and charged members of his own race $60 and $65 for the same rooms. He said that these rent grafters would not only have to give an account to their own people for this injustice, but they would themselves Christians would have to answer at the Judgment Bar for the sins which many women and men had been forced to commit in Harlem in order to pay these exorbitant rents. From the loud approvals, the great audience was undoubtedly back of the speaker in the terrible trade he delivered mander of Knights Templar of the State of New York and his staff of Grand Officers, after finding out that Ascension Commandery had complied with all of the laws as a U.

WE SEE NO OBJECTION to the creation of a new internal revenue collection district in New York City and the appointment of Charles W. Anderson as Collector, at six thousand dollars per year. Mr. Anderson has held the post before and is admittedly the best Collector the district has ever had. NEVERTHELESS Secretary Mellon and the Republican party are sadly mistaken if they think that the appointment of a colored man to the job will placate colored voters for the failure of Congress to pass the Dyer Anti-Lyaching Bill and other measures favorable to the race. The time has long since passed when a six thousand dollar job, or a ten thousand dollar job, for that matter, will guarantee the Negro vote. We have had enough notoriety of that kind. Both in war and in peace the Negro has proven that he is just as capable, just as honest and just as loyal as any other element of the citizenry, and is entitled to any job at the disposal of the government for which he is capable. Andersen has proven himself both honest and capable as a Collector of Internal Revenue, and for this reason and none other, he should be appointed to the created post. BUT WHAT OF THE REST OF US? WHAT GOOD will the six-thousand dollars us? And, it must be remembered that we over one hundred thousand in Harlem and 4 million in the Nation. Six thousand dollars among one hundred thousand people wow each six cents, and six cents is too small an for a vote, when life and liberty are at stake. Stop the lynching in the South; peace possible; with the bayonet, if necessary. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments Constitution. Suppress the infamous Ku Klux Make the Jim Crow laws illegal. Stop intimidation in the Army and Navy and WHAT GOOD will the six thousand dollar job do? And, it must be remembered that we number over one hundred thousand in Harlem and over ten million in the Nation. Six thousand dollars divided among one hundred thousand people would give each six cents, and six cents is too small an amount for a vote, when life and liberty are at stake. Stop the lynching in the South; peacefully, if possible; with the bayonet, if necessary. Enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution. Suppress the infamous Ku Klux Klan. Make the Jim Crow laws illegal. Stop the discrimination in the Army and Navy and in the Civil Service of the United States. To these ends our vote is for sale and six thou- and dollars will not buy it. EXPRESSED BY CONTEMPORARIES Why Should Not We Think. Well of Ourselves? Ever since the Union was organized, and before that, you and our group have been the subject of debate, oratory, legislation, hatred, war and wealth. We have refused to die or to accept the lower place so agreeably outlined and prescribed for us. Every dire result has been predicted to follow any favor shown to us or any right granted. The courts have been influenced both ways, money has refused to become operative in investment on the one hand and has been freely advanced on the other because we were in some way involved. Art, science, drama and religion have been twisted, turned and modified rather than acquaintance or lociuse they did accomplish the man with a darker skin. Tillman, Vardaman, Hoke Smith, Cole Blease, John Sharp Williams, Hefflin and a host of colorphobes were to be, today, plugging away in the obscurity of their white mediocrity but for the color question. Now comes Leslie M. Shaw, and with him William J. B. of "The Cross of Gold" fame and "grape juice" association, and both, being unwilling to remain outside of the bright glare of publicity in which they lived for a brief spell here, in public office, seize upon "the colored man" as the means by which to direct the focus upon their out-of-date personalities. Shaw says we would spoil suffrage in the District of Columbia because we would accept money for our votes, and Willie "Grape Juice" Bungler says we prosper better under white men's laws than we would under our own. Of course, what Leslie M. Shaw says are the reasons the District of Columbia does not enjoy suffrage are truths as far as they go. Had we the vote we would have, one of the three executive positions, better streets and alleys in our districts, at least two colored police precincts from top to bottom (and all policemen bother paid), another colored fire battalion, a colored judge in 3 of the 9 magistrates' court, we would establish more schools and better teachers, a municipal laundry and better houses, cheaper light and heat furnished by municipally owned central power plants, lower car fare on bus lines operated in many cases by colored men, etc., etc, etc. Mr. Shaw is right; the colored man would want money for his vote, but it would be some of the money he now spends for what he does not get in turn. As for Mr. Bryan, he is a joke. He was trained for a minister and became a politician by accident. He was poor and became rich by advertising himself. Don't worry one little mite. Those follows show you who is really doing the worrying. All we are called on to do is work, to save, to invest, to learn, to co-operate, to live and to wait. Time plays no favorites. Is Gen. Wood Guilty? (Cleveland Gazette) Our esteemed confere, Editor Geo. W. Harris of the New York News, has come out for Gen. Leonard Wood as the Republican candidate for the presidency, next year in the fall. During the last Presidential campaign, a statement was issued by those who pretended to know, charging Gen. Wood, when in command of a department of the United States Army and located in New York State, with having ordered the dismissal of a soldier (white) in his department, because he had married an Afro-American girl. The statement also informed the public that that is a matter of army record. How about it, Editor Harris? If Gen. Wood is the sort of man that statement, if this, indicates, we fall to see how our contemporary, the New York News, can endorse him as a candidate for anything. How about it, Brother Harris?

EDISON, American Inventor. The main objection I have against a college graduate is that he objects to work, especially if it is College Graduate Expects To Be Mature Foreman At the End of Six Weeks By THOMAS A. EDISON, American Inventor. The main objection I have against a college graduate is that he objects to work, especially if it is dirty. The college graduate doesn't want a job with work in it, and when he does get a position he expects to be appointed foreman at the end of six weeks. Most men working for me never attended college. The college men I have usually show lack of imagination. They scarcely have any suggestions to make in their daily routine which might lead to improvement in their various departments. College is a good place for a man who wants to work, but, unfortunately, there are very few of this type nowadays. Yet, if a man wants to succeed it is not necessary for him to go to college. He will broaden himself without it. We have enough lawyers, doctors and literary men. Also we have many $100,000 jobs with no one capable of filling them. The main quality for success, in my estimation, is ambition with a will to work. John Wanamaker - Merchant Was a Success By JOSEPH H. APPEL 1. He was himself—John Wanamaker. 2. He dreamed dreams. 3.

Interracial Movement in the South IN March 41 and 12 in the principal institutions of learning and in many cities throughout the country memorial services will be held in honor of the late Colonel Charles Young, U. S. A., who died at Lagos, Nigeria, January 8, 1922. Col. Young was born in Mayslick, Kentucky, March 12, 1864 but received his early education in Ripley, Ohio, where his parents moved when he was nine years old. After graduating from the Ripley high school at the age of sixteen Young taught school until he received his appointment to the Military Academy at West Point in 1884. From this time until his death Colonel Young was a public figure and was often spoken of as the embodiment of the military spirit of his race. After a period of frontier duty Young was detailed to Wilberforce University as Professor of Military Science and tactics in 1994. From a very helpful tour of duty at this institution where he taught French, German and Mathematics in addition to his military subjects, he was sent to military camps along the Atlantic Coast. Again he went to the Western frontiers. Young was made Captain in 1901 and sent to the Phillipines LIKE most movements of its kind, the inter-racial Movement had its birth in a great crisis. During the war the white and colored people of the South had, in a very remarkable way, forgotten their differences and united in a supreme effort to win the war. Promises of better things were made to all of our boys, black and white. The Negro soldier accepted these promises at face value. He played well his part in the war. When upon his return to his homeland these promises were not realized, his heart was filled with bitterness. The lines were more eightly drawn and barriers to his progress seemed more stubborn and relentless than ever. As race riots broke out and fear of a general race conflict gripped the country, a "group of white men, confident that the good will and co-operation secured between the races during the war could be perpetrated, called into conference a number of representative colored men in the spirit of prayer and supplication, and adopted a platform upon which they would stand. The planks of this platform would be before the law, the prevention of lynchings, and the correction of other injustices to FEATURE where he commanded a troop at Samar, Blanca, Aurora, Daraga, Toacan, Rosann and San Joaquín. Upon his return to the States his service included administration of Sequofa and General Grant Memorial Parks, California. The War Department commended Captain Young officially for his excellent work on this detail. In May, 1904 Young was sent as Military Attaché to Haiti and remained four years. During this period he made an accurate map of the country. It is said that the American Marines would not have been able to find their way into Haiti so easily had not Capt. Young done his work so well. In performing his duties as Attache he found time to write "Toussaint L'Ouverture", a drama of which only a few copies are in print. From this point the scenes of Young's service shifted from this country to the Phillippines to Africa and back to Mexico where he was when it became a probability that this country would become involved in the European holocaust. He was now a Lieutenant-Colonel and in command of the famous Tenth Cavalry. Lt. Col. Young's keen forsight and his eagerness to serve his people led him to establish a school for enlisted men at Fort Huachuchua in the Negro. Some of the most widely-known people of the South accepted places on the commission, among whom were ministers, college presidents, blahops and capitalists. As a later development, many of the South's leading women have become associated with the movement. The commission does not pretend to have discovered a short cut to the millennium or to have brought into existence a perfect organization, nor does it believe that it has found a solution to the race problem that can be worked out in a day. It recognizes, in the language of George Mudden Martin, that prejudices are stubborn, and that to overcome them is not a task for limited sympathies and petty natures; that it is not a task that can be done by machinery or mere organization; that it is a spiritual task, a task to be carried out in the spirit and according to the ethics of the Man of Gallilee. These principles emphasize first the truth that contact is necessary in the solution of any human problem. Differences are at first minimized, then they disappear. In order that the movement should be motivated by Christian principles, the leader perfected a daily organization. BY HELEN GREEG GREEN. A LITTLE school marm was tell- ing about speaking to the mother of a pupil about her son's poor school in school. "Well," sighed the mother. "I really don't know what to do. I've told Ronald he'll have to stay away from the movies this week and study, and I've half a mind to stick to it." Half a mind: Therein lies the trouble with many mothers. When you're a half-a-mind mother, your children soon find it out and when they discover the fact, how your discipline will suffer: I recently overheard several boys talking. "Come on, let's go in swimming." James coaked. Eddie grinned, but shook his head. "Can't. Sorry! But Mom said, 'Not today.' "Aw, shucks, Eddie, come on! Your mother'll forget what she said. Mine usually does. Half the time she doesn't mean it." "No, my mother won't." Eddie answered firmly. "She doesn't lay down the law very often, but believe me. So, when she does, she means it!" "Oh, well, I'm going. My mother told me not to. . . Sad she would spank me if I did, but she won't. At least, bestatingly, 'I don't think she will. Sometimes she means what she says, and sometimes she doesn't.' And off James shambled. What a contrast between the mothers of these two boys, and how much better the effect of firmness! I don't believe in nagging children; and I don't believe in giving perfunctory orders and rebukes every few minutes. But I most firmly do believe in meaning what you say, and having a good mind of your own. Occasionally you will change your mind about something. In that case it is wise to explain to your boy or girl just why you did so. Your children will respect you more, and you will be a more successful parent if you are not the vasculating, half-a-mind type. And the matter of discipline will be much easier and pleasanter, and everybody will be happier. By Campbell C. Johnson order to get black soldiers ready to enter any training camp which might be opened to Colored Officers. The Colored race has not yet recovered from the shock received when the news flashed across the country that Lt. Col. Charles Young had been retired as Colonel on June 22, 1917. The houses of 12,000,000 people that they would have a black Major General leading a black Division on the fields of France were shattered. It may be that this broke Youngs heart but the greatness of the man is clearly shown by the fact that he never complained. Later when the war had past and his country said it wanted him to go back to Africa he eagerly grasped the opportunity. It was there that his eventful life came to an end. The War Department has recently announced the early return' of Colonel Young's body to this country for permanent interment in the Arlington National Cemetery. Preparations are being made by the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity of which Colonel Young was an active member, to participate in the burial ceremonies with the large number of other representative organizations that will do honor to this great American. By Dr. James Bond commission with membership representing thirteen states and headquarters in Atlanta. In addition to this commission, each of the thirteen states has a commission directing the work in that state. Some eight hundred of the twelve hundred counties in the Southern States have organized local committees of representative white and colored people. In thirty-seven years, from 1835 to 1921, there were 437 lynchings in Georgia and only one indictment. In 1922 alone, with eight lynchings, 22 persons were indicted, of whom four have been convicted and sent to the penitentiary and 15 are still to be tried. The evidence in these cases was collected largely by the interracial secretary and committees in Georgia. This is one illustration among many of the effectiveness of the movement. What the commission needs more than anything else is the confidence of the community, white and colored. It seeks the sympathy and co-operation of the members of the churches and social organizations, to the end that this greatest problem confronts us today may American people understand the principle of justice and take play, and according to the teachings of Jesus. "Das ewige Weibliche zieht uns hinan." Clement Wood remarked to us the other day that one of the motives behind the Rev. Percy Stickney Grant's "beliefs," is that he wants to marry a woman, and creeds and bishops are somewhat in the way. The woman has been divorced. Well, what of it? Woman has been the chief motive of many big beginnings. The first man (according to Genesis) made the first woman his alibi for introducing knowledge (and sin) into the dull old world. He declared that the woman handed him an apple, or something, and he just couldn't resist it.—poor fellow. Of course, that was just an attempt to dodge behind the skirt;—or the fig leaf,—for the truth is, that Eve would have had to fight Adam to keep him from taking that apple. She only handed it to him because, like all of her daughters, she knew just exactly what it would take to please him. He doubtless liked the looks of the hand that handed him the apple, and preferred to get it that way, of all ways. We have never quite forgiven Adam for not boldly assuming the blame and responsibility when the angelic police arrived on the scene. And if Mr. Grant is motived by a good woman, we only hope he will not copy after his illustrious first ancestor. Then the Episcopal Church may have a new beginning, in a woman. For that Church originated so; Henry, the Eighth, wanted to marry a woman. Popes and so forth were in the way: And so Henry just became his own Pope, so to speak, divorced himself, and married the woman. Just as Henry started something new, so might Percy. Whatever the motive, we admire the courage, and the evident sincerity, of the Rev. Mr. Grant. There are so many preachers who pretend to believe what is imposed upon them—who are afraid of Bishops, Creeds, Disciplines, Public Opinion, their Congregations, and of every other thing except God and their Consciences. These men would never make any progress if some unafraid, rebellious, unorthodox man, driven by a woman perhaps, did not happen in their midst. Long ago The New York Times reported a sermon of Henry Ward Beecher, as follows: Mr. Beecher said "he could not attempt to explain it (The Trinity). Orthodoxy says that men must believe in the Trinity or they cannot come into the church. That is called orthodoxy, but he called it heathenism." Evidently Beecher was unorthodox, as is every progressive mind in every church. Some believe it is so simply because the stronger and more powerful say it is so. It reminds us of the little boy who kept saying to his teacher: "Two times two is five!" The teacher asked: "Why do you keep saying that it is five, when I have proven to you that it is four?" Whereupon the bewildered child cast his eye again at the school "bully," who sat near, and whispered: "Well—Jimmie Higgins sez two times two is five—an' he kin bishop me!" Some people agree with the bishop because they believe with the bishop. But many others agree, because the bishop is the "bigges." Historical Society to Meet April 5-6 Will Discuss Negro Life and History; Baltimore The Spring Conference of the Association for the Study of Nogro Life and History, directed by Dr. C. G. Woodson, will be held on the 5th and 6th of April. Members of the administrative staff, including Prof. John R. Hawkins, the chairman; Mr. S. W. Rutherford, secretary-treasurer, and others of the executive council, are making extensive preparations for this conference.
