(Freston News Service.)
ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 5—The southern white people had an opportunity to see and hear Marcos Garvey, Provisional President of Africa, president of the Negro improvement Association, at Big Bethel A. M. R. Church last Friday night. Mr. Garvey gave his usual long harangue—pointing out reasons why Negroes should leave this country, establish a nation of their own, etc. The address seemed to please many of the southern whites and the uneducated Negroes in the audience.

Contributes to Slain Officer's Family
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 5. Expressing deep regret over the death of a man who died in the performance of his duty, Judge Robert E. Mattingly, of the District of Columbia Municipal Court, has contributed the tidy sum of $5 to the fund for the widow and children of John W. Purcell, the colored policeman who succumbed to wounds received in the line of duty. Judge Mattingly, who is popular in the Capital, fully expressed his sentiments when he said:
"With a multitude of others, I want to express my deep regret over the death of Officer John W. Purcell, recently killed in the line of duty. I knew him well and always found him to be a square, truthful, upright man. The widow and the little ones of Officer Purcell are deserving of great congratulation at our hands, and I therefore find great pleasure in contributing my mite of five dollars toward a subscription."
The Washington Post, one of the country's great white dailies, started the subscription fund, and is receiving subscriptions.
Eugene V. Debs, Socialist Leader, Addresses a Mixed Audience in Harlem; Race Question is a Class Problem, He Says.
Eugene V. Debs, smiling, genial, his every word and look radiating love for his fellow-man or his hatred of injustice, addressed some 1,500 persons at the Commonwealth Casino on Tuesday night.
Speaking on "The Negro Problem," he said that he was thankful that at no time had he ever experienced dislike for his fellow-man because of creed, nationality or color. "From the beginning of my life my heart has been with the colored people. When I think of what they have suffered I think for shame at my own people of all races of complex equality. I want nothing for myself that they haven't got. If one of them shines my shoes, then I am perfectly willing to shine him, too. If I were not, then I'd be his moral inferior."
The Socialist leader told of his experiences in the Atlanta pennitary, and how he fought discrimination against the colored prisoners there. "I left Atlanta," he said, "feeling as if those 2,000 prisoners were all members of my own family. There's not one I'd not have admitted to my own family."
"The race question," he continued, "resolves itself into a clear question. The great employer of labor want cheap labor, and they don't care whether it is wrapped up in a white hide on a black coat."
A small portion of the audience was colored. Addressing himself to this, he said: "As long as you are willing to be mentals and servants and alveens, that's all you'll be. You must smile and stand together. As long as you drift apart you'll receive contempt and you'll deserve it. You have brains, intelligence; you have just as much in you that is as capable as the white man. Use it!" Debe was presented with a large bouquet of flowers carried by two little girls—one white, the other black. He kissed them both.
Other speakers were: James Cusal, Judge Jacob Pankham, A Philip Randolph, editor of the Messenger, and Mrs. Lucille Randolph. Frank Crossthwaite acted as chairman.

DESVERNEY DISCHARGED BY·COURT
Lieut. Oswald Deverney, of the Fifteenth Regiment, was discharged in the Washington Heights Court last week by Magistrate McAndrew when arraigned on two charges of siliconious assault and out of violation of the Sullivan law.
Deverney said that on the way home from training practice at the rifle range he met Sillid, and both went into a cage at 11am street and Seventh avenue to get a drink. Sillid, he said, was half indicted, and during a conversation about Jack Dampsey, jabbed him in the side. Deverney said that he then threw his cont aside and stowed Sillid his army revolver in the holster, whereupon Sillid left.
Some time later he said that he was showing the mechanism of the weapon to "happy" Elliot, 212 Seventh avenue, one of the employees, when Sillid, accompanied by a white man, who he thought was his manager, but who later turned out to be Detective Boyle, entered and encountered to take away the gun.
The lieutenant denied pointing the revolver either at Detective Boyle or at Skii, but admitted having hesitated to surrender it, thinking that, as an officer of the regular army, the detective had no right to disarm him.
Sparred His Life.
Detective Boyle testified that Skii came to the police station and complained that Detective Dewerney had threatened to short him. Later, when Boyle saw Dewerney, he demanded the revolver, but the lieutenant, he said, rushed to give it up. Subsequently, he said. Dewerney surrendered the revolver in the alley near the Latwyter Theatre. Both then went to the police station, where Dewerney was held by the lieutenant.
Several officers of the regiment testified in favor of Dewerney. Through his attorney, Alex Bessthal, he presented a letter from the commanding officer of the segment showing that Dewerney had a right to carry the weapon. Certificates showing that Dewerney had fought in fifteen major engagements of the last war were also presented to the court.
Skii failed to answer.

"One day Mr. Holt called me by phone and asked me to come over and help her a few days until her girl came back. The girl had gone away for the holidays. Accordingly I did so.
"On the following Saturday evening Mr. Holt called by phone and informed me that she had missed her jewelry. She hesitated if I knew where it was. I answered that I did not. Mrs. Holt applied: I will look again." A few minutes later she (Mrs. Holt) called me again and asked that my husband and I come over.
"We soon arrived at Mrs. Holt's home. Again, for an hour she and we searched the house in quest of the missing gem, to no avail. In that time we looked the entire plane over. Finally my husband, who was tired and sleepy, proposed that we go home, but Mrs. Holt interjected: "You wait. I will send for the detectives and have them make an investigation."
"Setting the action to the word, she phoned to Mr. Holt at his address at 3504 South State street and related her loss to him, and asked that he immediately send detectives to the house.

ARE YOU SICK?
1. Wash hands.
For more than twelve years I was suffering from severe headaches, nervous pain in the back and stomach, poor appetite, weakness, insatiability and constipation. I was able to walk only with distention. I consulted several physicians but they did not seem to recognize my disease and were unable to help me.
One day I read the announcement of Dr. Hancock's office and I immediately put myself under his care. I met him at the office and I lived with the first treatment and I improved. Now after being under his care only three months I have been able to walk and I am able to walk well and while I was hardy able to cat before, I have now a wonderful appetite and enjoy everything I are eating. Indeed, my condition is excellent that you would hardly believe I was ever sick.
I am very grateful to this skilful specialist and I gave this testimony very willingly so that others may learn how much good he does for the sick.

LOZADO TO DIE IN CHAIR
Filipino, Who Killed Blossom Martin, Is Found Guilty of Murder in the First Degree; Says He Was Tortured By Police.
Eulogia Lozado, young Filipino, must die in the electric chair for the premeditated murder of Blossom Martin on June 8. This was the verdict arrived at by a jury in Judge Rosalsky's court after ten and a half hours' deliberation Friday.
Lozado's version of the story in that he killed the white girl in self-defense. He says that she was his mistress while both were employed by Dr. George B. McAnuffe, she as nurse and he as butler. He said that he had given her many presents, among which was $50 in cash. He had been planning to marry her, he said, and had bought a diamond ring valued at $200. She did not like it, he said, and he bought another for $500.
After buying this ring he wanted to give it to her in the presence of a witness, but she objected. In the disagreement that followed she told him she had another lover, who would kill him. He then called her a bad name, he said, and she ran at alm with a kitchen knife. He ran away, but she caught him. He knocked the knife from her hand, but she grappled with him and they rolled to the door near the knife. Miss Martin had the batter of him, he said, and in desperation he seized her throat. He squeezed it for about a minute he said, and then she fell lifeless. Lozado's counsel, George Z. Dedale, caused a sensation when he exhibited his client, badly scarred about the throat and chest. These marks, he said, were inflicted by the police, who burnt Lozado with cigars, and used other methods of torture in order to wring a confession from him.
Lozado's testimony was interpreted by two native Filipinos.
OHIO KLANSMEN
ASK PROTECTION
STEUBENVILLE, O., Nov. 5—Little did Hon. Harry C. Smith, founder and editor of the Cleveland Gazette, and several times member of the Ohio State Legislature, dream that when he drafted and secured passage of several laws for the protection of Negroes of the State of Ohio that these same laws would be used by the恶劣的 Ku Klux Klan for their protection.
Adavits charging 19 men with rioting and inciting to riot were filed last Monday before Justice of the Peace Stone. The alleged rioting occurred on the night of August 16 when an anti-Klan demonstration was held here.
GOV. WALTON GOES

OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. 5.—J. C. Walton, suspended Governor of Oklahoma, goes on trial to-morrow before the Senate, alitfing as an imprisonment court, upon twenty-two charges voted by the House. Referring to an assault Thursday on Representative J. W. Callahan of Latimer County when the letter charged on the floor of the House that the body was domesticated by Grand Dragon N. C. Jewett of the Oklahoma realm of the Klan, the Governor asserted the incident was "further evidence that a conspiracy existed" to impach him and that it "proven my statement that it (the General Assembly) would be a mob assembly."
South Carolina Girl Gets Exclusive Recording Contract.
THE NEW YORK TIMES
LAST week, Miss Josie Miles, who hails from Summerville, S.C., was signed up by the Starr Piano Co. of Richmond, Ind., as an exclusive singer of "Blues" for the "Gennett" records. All of which means a great deal when you know that prior to a week ago Miss Miles had never warbled her melodious voice into a recording horn and is the first Race artist to be signed up to sing exclusively for that company. On the recommendation of Jos. M. Davis, under whose direction she is now working, Miss Miles made a test for Gennett and was immediately offered a tempting contract calling for forty "Blues" numbers during the coming twelve months. Two days following the signing of the contract Miss Miles made "Baby's Got the Blues" and "Kansas City Man Blues," which will be released shortly.
Although Miss Miles never had any recording experience, she isn't an inter stranger to the public, as she was quite a favorite with the "Shuffle Along" company, which enjoyed long and prosperous runs in New York and other big cities. Veteran phonograph men who have had the pleasure of hearing Miss Miles' maiden records predict she is a real find and that she will be a sensation within a few months.
Repulsed Lover
Kills Woman
Ten Year Old Girl Witnesses Philadelphia Tragedy.
PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 5.—A woman's attempt to repulse the advances of an undesirable lover resulted in murder last Monday afternoon, when Mrs. Battle Perkins, a widow, of 1225 Olive street, was shot and killed by John Magram of Eighth street, near Poplar.
The murder was committed in the second-floor middle room of the Olive street house, where Engram had come to demand an explanation of Mrs. Perkins for having evaded him on the preceding night by going to church before he called.
At the time of the shooting Mrs. Perkins' ten-year-old daughter was in the room with her mother. According to the child's statement, Engram came in and at once began to quarrel with Mrs. Perkins for having gone out on Sunday night, and when the woman began to assert that she was free to go and come as she pleased, Engram became enraged, drew a revolver and fired. The woman throw up her hands in a vain effort to protect herself, but the bullet passed through her hands and entered her neck. Engram fed, but was soon captured by the police.
Mrs. Perkins was rushed to the Hahnemann Hospital and died there a few hours later.
Nation-Wide Enthusiasm in Campaign to Release Houston Martyrs
James Weldon Johnson. Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. 69 Fifth avenue, issued a statement saying that the campaign for the freeing of the 54 members of the 42nd Infantry still imprisoned in Leavenworth Penitentiary for their share in the Houston riot, had met with unprecedentedly enthusiastic re-
sponsor throughout the nation.
"Not only ought we to have the 100,000 signatures, with which we hoped to go before President Coolidge, asking him to pardon the 54 members of the 24th Infantry who are still in prison," said Mr. Johnson, "but we ought to have a considerable number above that figure. Hardly a colored newspaper in the country but has spread the news of this campaign to free the Houston martyrs. Churches and fraternal organizations have taken it up and signatures are being obtained by the thousand everywhere. One colored man, in New York City, took petitions into the offices of the Standard Oil Building, and although those petitions have not yet come in, we are informed that high officers of the Standard Oil Company have signed them.
"I want to say a special word about the work of fraternal organizations. They have been doing yeoman service and their members have been spreading the word about this campaign and turning in large numbers of signatures. The churches, too, have been responding valiantly and there is every indication that the church services on Sunday, November 11, Houston Martyrs' Day, will make an impression on the entire nation. It should be remembered that November 11 is also Armistice Day, the day that marked the end of the great war in which colored American soldiers played such an important part.
"Colored Americans have found a stirring task in this campaign and I am glad to say that they are working together in the finest possible spirit. We are looking forward to the time when the fine, upstanding and clean boys in Leavenworth Penitentiary will be able to walk out of there, free men."
(Preston News Service.)
LTTLE ROCK, Ark., Nov. 5,—Miss Ada Phillips, aged 30, an employee at the Tyler Hotel, was arrested at the hotel last Tuesday afternoon and is being held in jail in connection with the murder of Elijah H. Hamilton, who was shot and killed on the night of Oct. 7. The officers say that they received information that Miss Phillips fired the shot that killed Hamilton. It is said that she admitted to the officials of keeping company with Hamilton prior to his marriage, which occurred two months ago, but denied any knowledge of the killing. According to the detectives, Hamilton was to have married the Phillips girl, but he hilted her and married another woman, and it is claimed that Miss Phillips is said to have made threats that she would get even with him for the "dirty deal" he gave her.
Miss Phillips is a pretty woman with a very engaging manner. She is said to have come from a very excellent family. Her manner shows marks of well breeding and ordinarily she would not be suspected of committing murder.
It is said that Hamilton, who was a chauffeur, had just placed his machine in the garage in the rear of the home where he was employed when a woman fired three shots, one taking effect. Hamilton fell unconscious and died before reaching the hospital.
WILLIAM YORK'S
CASE POSTPONED
The case of William York of Monmouth Junction, N. J., who was arrested recently on a charge of grand larceny growing out of the proposed trip to Liberia of the African Tourist Co., was again postponed when it came up for a hearing last week in Harlem Court. York, who has seen military service in Europe and Africa, is out on ball.
The complainant in the case is Mrs. Priscilla St. John, an evangelist living at $157 Villa avenea, the Bronx, who lost $150 in the venture.
It is not generally believed that Major York will be indicted. The defunct company has already refunded all others the money it had on hand when the project failed and it is stated on good authority that the money collected here will be returned as soon as it is released by the courts. Many prominent men were interested in the trip.
York is a graduate of Wilberforce University,

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 7, 1923
ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 5.—Adam Lindsey, who last Saturday night shot and killed County Policeman Henry Heard, will make a plea of self defense when the case is called for trial, according to a statement Sunday by Frank P. Stockton, local attorney, who was retained by the defendant as counsel. Attorney Stockton's statement for his client follows:
"Saturday morning at 10 o'clock Lindsey was attacked at his place of business, in Eagan park by six white men, and after being beaten over the head with a rock, he escaped. The men shouted that they were going after their guns and would return and kill him.
"Lindsey was in fear of his life and got a gun to protect himself. Thinking that the men would return immediately, he closed up his place of business for the day in order to avoid trouble.
"The attack on Lindsey in the morning was entirely without provocation. The men approached Lindsey in his store and sought to purchase whiskey, telling him they had been informed that he was engaged in that business. He told them that he did not have any whiskey and that he had no business."
"Nothing further happened until Saturday night about 8 o'clock, when four or five men called at the home of James Clarke and asked for Lindsey.

Sue for $80,000
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Nov. 4.—Two suits claiming a total of $80,000 damages as a result of the lynching of John H. Harrison on February 3, 1982, at Malvern, Ark., were filed in United States District Court last Tuesday by Mra. Callie Henry and the Misses Martha and Millie Harrison, sisters of the slain man.
One suit was filed against D. S. Bray, former sheriff of Hot Springs County, and his two deputies, W. T. Gamble and S. H. Lalper and W. T. Cooper, surety on the official's bond. It is alleged that the sheriff and his deputies did not take proper precautions to save the prisoner from the vengeance of the lynchers.
The other suit was brought against Clarence Chamberlain, R. S. Hodges, Leonard Stanley and Ray Galligher, who are charged with having formed themselves into a mob "with divers other persons for the purpose of taking the life of John Harrison."
The complaint says that Harrison was arrested without a warrant and held unlawfully, on the day that the killing took place. The sheriff, it is charged, took Harrison to the station with the avowed purpose of removing him from the scene of excitement, but did not take the precaution he should have.
SLAVERY EXISTS IN PHILIPPINES
MANILA. Nov. 5.—Tales of wholesale murder and slavery have been brought to Manila from Davao, one of the principal cities of Mindanao, by investigators, who say that from 200 to 300 laborers are known to have died on one plantation in Mindanao recently as a result of alleged mistreatment. Filipino managers of some of the ranches have been arrested and charged with homicide, it is reported. W. D. Corn said that when the manager of the place became ill and was taken to a hospital, he heard the tales of cruelty and took over the management of the ranch. He said the plantation is isolated and escape from it almost impossible, and that for that reason the authorities had not heard of the cruelties there.

me and said: "Bortha, tell me the truth—haven't you got my jewelry?" I was astonished and replied: "No, I have not! Previously I had not the eighthest idea that Mrs. Holt supported me of staining her gems, I burst into tears and told her that I would walk the streets and beg before I would steal.
"The two big policeman stood over me and said: 'Well, girl, give up the stuff, or else we will have to take you down.'"
"At this point the police walked me through the street to where I lived and they manacked my room, without finding a trace of the jewelry."
"When the detectives asked Mrs. Holt: 'What do you want to do about it?' she answered: 'I want my jewelry. Then the sons took me away and imprisoned me, where I remained for two days. This was on Saturday evening. 'On Sunday the officers called me up on the 'phone and they told me to get ready to leave. A little later I was released from custody and was met by Mr. Pattie. No police were there, and together we returned to our home. 'Three days later Mrs. Holt called by 'phone to talk with me, but I was away. She left a message, saying, 'I have found my jewelry.' Shortly afterwards the big damage suit was started, the trial of
Catarrh Of the Stomach Is Dangerous
"Thousands Have It and Don't Know It." Says Physician. Frequently Mistaken for Indigestion—How to Recognize and Treat.
"Thousands of people suffer non or less constantly from furred, coated tongue, bad breath, sour, burning stomach, frequent vomiting, rumbling in stomach, bitter eructations, gas, wind and stomach acidity and call it indigestion, when in reality their trouble is due to gastric catarrh of the stomach," writes a New York physician.
Catarrh of the stomach is dangerous because the mucous membrane lining of the stomach is thickened and a coating of phlegm covers the surface so that the digestive tract cannot mix with the food and digest them. This condition soon breeds deadly disease in the fermented, unassimilated food. The Blood is polluted and carries the infection throughout the body. Gastric ulcers are apt to form and frequently an ulcer in the first sign of a deadly cancer.
in earth of the stomach a good and safe treatment is to take before meals a teaspoonful of pure Glutared Magnolia in half a glass of hot water, an hot as you can comfortably drink it. The hot water washes the mucus from the stomach walls and draws the blood to the stomach, while the glutared Magnolia solvent for mucus and increases the efficiency of the hot water treatment. Moreover, the Glutared Magnolia will serve as a powerful but harmless anticidant which will neutralise any excess hydrochloric acid that may be in your stomach and sweeten its food contents. Easy, natural digestion without distress of any kind should soon follow. Glutared Magnolia is not a laxative, is harmless, pleasant and easy to take, and can be obtained by any pharmacy. Dr. Duncan confuses Glutared Magnolia with other forms of magnolia, millets, trutta, etc., but get it in the pure glutared form (powder or toast), especially prepared for this purpose.

Oefat Suffered Against Italians Needed to Get Local Players Started Right—MaMahons Sending Them to Face Fast Going Hudson County Big Five Next Sunday—Corsicans to Strut New Uniforms. The crack five of the Commonwealth team travelled to Amsterdam, N. Y., last Friday night and created quite aurore when they stacked up against one of the best teams in the Up-State League and came near defeating them, as the score of 25-18 in favor of the up-Staters will show. Considered in the class of the famous Celtics, the Up-State team had the surprise of their lives handed to them when captain Jenkins and his men staged rally after rally amidst the excitement of fans who thought they had gathered to witness another slaughter at the hands of the white players.

Those who saw the game were astonished over the playing of the colored boys against such a armidable combination, and the McMahons are being besieged with requests for a return date in Amsterdam when the fans will get another opportunity to see their boys in action. The coming Sunday the fans in the neighborhood will be seen to see a white cam coming here with a reputation when the Hudson County Big Five arrive at the Commonwealth casino to face the local playera.
These boys from Hudson County have guarded the gates of their city well, and from the day they chinched the championship of the County no five have been successful in wrestling it from them. A win on Sunday by the Commonwealth. Five will be an accomplishment of which they could well afford to feel proud, as they will find they are stacking up against a tight bunch.
As usual, the crack little Corrals will be on deck in the preliminary contest, and for the first time this Sunday they will be strutting their stuff in their new uniforms. The owners of the Commonwealth are well pleased with the spirit of the youngsters in trying to maintain their club on a high-class basis, and they are enjoying the support which would not ordinarily be theirs if appearing elsewhere.

trained to into basketball games at Manhattan Casino, the crowd kept pouring into the Renaissance Casino up to the end of the game which was over about 11 clock. Every indication points to a much larger house next Saturday night as the thrill of a contest, added to good dance music, will attract even more when those who were present go out and tell of the evening enfoiment. For the coming Saturday night "Smilla Bob" has secured the crack Bridgeport Separates to do battle to the Renaissance players. Instead of picking easy ones for his men Douglas is seeking the hardest combinations among the white team, and Bridgeport is truly representative of the best in white team. This action sends confidence, to the local team, as the people know they will do their best to shop these last white players.
The lineup which Douglas sent on the floor should be able to hold the best of them, and if they can only secure a canvas the new team will give an even better account of themselves. Many believe that a game between the Commonwealth Big Five and the Rebellion Five must not be set back too far and the enthusiast played for the new team would most likely be the only divided and things could be at their hottest if these two teams should start a series earlier.
the best two out of three games played during the season would show us the way to a real championship, and the owners of the Commonwealth seem so confident of their team's ability to win from any other colored team in the east they seem to be eager to get things started between the two teams. From now on, Saturday night crowds will be in order at the Penalence, and with the inspiration of their first victory we predict a bright action at the tournament.

The fact that the crack Perth Amboy team which came here last Sunday night to meet the Commonwealth Big Five had added more lustre to their fame by defeating the boys last season, had much to do with the enthusiasm which reigned at the Commonwealth Casino on Sunday night when the fans realized that the local players were out on the court stumping everything the visitors could resort to. It was a pleasant surprise to the followers of the Commonwealth to see their boys appearing with new vim and vigor and Sessom, who drew the fire of many for the indifferent games he has been putting up, virtually redeemed himself and "ran wild."
The reason why Seasons is picked upon is because New York expects great things of him, and holding down the pivot position much depends on him when it comes to leading the team from the center of the floor. The defeat recently suffered by our boys stood them in the air, and to them the necessity of putting more pop in their games to keep ahead. They defeated Perth Amboy by the score of 26-18.

Hampton Grid Team Beats Lincoln in Gruelling Contest in Baltimore
Baltimore People Fully Appreciate the Staging of the Big Contest in Their City and Praise is Heard on All Sides for the Management of Lincoln.
BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 4 — In a gruelling contest Hampton emerged the victor over the Lincoln Lions in one of the most stubbornly contested gridiron battles ever played between-these two schools. The teams were about evenly matched in most respects, and except for penalties inflicted neither side would have scored a touchdown. In the early part of the game Lincoln carried the ball to Hampton's 25-yard line, where Crudup kicked a goal from placement. There was no other scoring until near the end of the game.
Lincoln received three penalties amounting to 35 yards, which placed the ball on her 1-yard line, from which Hampton made a touchdown. It was a rather unfortunate ending for such a stubbornly and brilliantly played game. The lessons learned from this game will be of material benefit to all teams in the future.
year placed them in a class second to only the Commonwealth Big "21" winning twenty-two out of twenty-five games played, losing only to McMahon brothers' great aggression and professional collegians, who held the Commonwealth to a 23-20 score.
The team will line up with Ellis, Garcia, Flowers, forwards; Soane-lberg, center; Gaynor and James, guards. The management is awaiting pines for a game with Bob Douglas. Renault- Big "5."
Colonial Social and Athletic Club Boys Are Aces
Staunch Supporters of the Amsterdam News and Sporting Editor Recall Old Days in Jersey
We know when we left Jersey City some twentys-seven years ago, after a long residence at 16 Kearney avenue, that if the occasion ever presented itself, New Jersey would rally to one whose boyhood days in the Heights section and Taftayette can be remembered with many things to make the heart beat faster.
Now, it is with a tinge of regret that we recall the many full attempts of the Kearneys to wrest baseball honors from that bunch who made the Communitypaw section their stamping grounds, but up there on the Heights, on the lots on Orange street and Rose avenue, we relauned supreme.
To-day the Colonial Social and Athletic Club, with headquarters at 76 Kenney avenue, has entered the field to improve on that work, the foundation of which was laid in the open lots of ten and fifteen years ago. This organization is made up of some of the leading colored men now residing in Jersey City, and we take this medium of assuring them that they will have the full and individuated support of this paper in their efforts to raise the social and athletic standards of their city.
We have before us as we write an order for twelve subscriptions from individuals in the club, and once again I am forced to raise the old lid to good old New Jersey, which has for the past fifteen years given us the kind of support that has meant so much to us since we first entered the raka. Among the directors of the club are Clarence Jones, James Tate, William Petway, H. Lewis, Walter Jacobs, James Leaphart, with J. W. Barnes as president. Some of the other members well known in New Jersey are: B. J. Undy, W. A. Jackson, B. Palmer, C. Corbin, A. Arvin, L. George, J. M. Beaver, G. Jackson, A. Lewin. The boys are shaming a big affair to be staged this Winter.

In the excitement of the last quarter, when Lincoln was trying to prevent Hampton from scoring, a Lincoln player thoughtlessly piled up on a Hampton player, and for this the team was penalized. Soon after this a five yard penalty was imposed for defying the game. Then Morgan was sent in to replace Jason. He thoughtlessly forgot the ruling which prohibits an incoming player from talking until after the first scrimmage. For this the team suffered another penalty, so that the game was ruled lost from the inception of penalties in the 16th inning and Hampton eight. Both teams reported to kicking when the ball was in their respective territory, and there was very little difference between Crudup for Lincoln and Gunn for Hampton in this respect. Both Jacobs and Byrd played stellar games at quarter, but Byrd slightly outclassed his rival by frequently carrying the ball, for long games. Captain Johnson was badly hurt in the first quarter, and had to retire, but the game came back for a few minutes in the last period. Hardwick, for Hampton, was a

In spite of the setback suffered on Friday night when his man, "Big Bill" Tate, was knocked out in the seventh round of a scheduled ten round bout at Madison Square Garden, George Moore has completed a schedule for his fighters that will keep all hands busy from now on. Moore believes that the departure from his usual style of fighting had much to do with the downfall of Tate, to say nothing of the fact that Bill for days before the fight was worrying on account of his wife being in a delicate condition.
We understand that a return engagement between the men has been arranged for, the fight to take place in Philadelphia. The next match to keep the attention of the energetic manager is that between another of his fighters, in the person of Willie Walker, who faces Jack Tilyon at the Pioneer Sporting Club tonight (Tuesday) in what is down on the boards as Walker's first step towards bigger things in the game.
On November 22 Moore will again send little Bobby Risdon into action when the youngster faces Kid Rash in the star attraction at the 192d Medical Armory. This sight was billed for the 16th Infantry but was transferred when it was discovered that no boots will be staged here until the opening of the new armory.
Risdon is quite an attraction in terfere with the plans he has made for the trip to California. Recently he received letters from Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania and Governor Smith of New York, the former thanking him for the interest shown in the colored fighter and the latter to possibly take up an important end of the game in this state with Mr. Moore.

On November 22 Moore will again send little Bobby Risdon into action when the youngster faces Kid Rash in the star attraction at the 102d Medical Armory. This sight was billed for the 15th Intrattory but was transferred when it was discovered that no bouts will be staged here until the opening of the new armory. Risdon is quite an attraction in the fight game these days, as he has been making a splendid showing from the first night he started under the management of Moore up to the present time. He has engaged in eight fights and won all of them. On each occasion his victory has been so impressive no room was left for any doubt about the winner.
On November 25 Kid Buller will face Joe Souza at the Commonwealth Sport Club in the feature engagement for that night. Souza ran out of a previous engagement with Buller, and the Boxing Commission demanded that the white boy go through with this fight before he can engage in any other here. The plans of America's leading manager also called for a trip to the Coast.

Notebooks side made much use of the forward pass until the best quarter, then Lincoln attempted several, but most of them were grounded. The crowd was largely representative, there being many of the elect from Philadelphia, Washington, Washington and other near points. The game demonstrated the popularity of the sport, and the wisdom of giving the people in Baltimore a game between two representative institutions. The management of Lincoln is to be commanded for so arranging the schedule as to have big games in several important places. as Charleston, Baltimore and Philadelphia. It is doubtful if more competent officials have ever acted in a football game. They were Mr. Gibson, Springfield "T," referee. Dr. C. H. Alley, Howard, umpire. Mr. Douglas, Harvard, field judge.

Franz Byrd, Son of Rev. and Mrs. W. A. Byrd, Hero of Lincoln's Victory Over W. Va. Inst.
In the recent football game between Lincoln University of Oxford, Pa., and West Virginia Institute at Charleston, W. Va., Franz Byrd of Jersey City was the hero of the game. He made a 52-yard run for a touchdown, the score being seven to nothing in favor of Lincoln University.
In other games this season Byrd has made two 65-year runs for touchdowns. He is playing quarterback, and so far this season is the most sensational player in the Colored College Association and one of the best on the gridiron field this year.
Byrd's efficiency makes Lincoln University a strong favorite in the annual "football classic," which will be played in National League Ball Park at Philadelphia, on Thanksgiving afternoon, between Lincoln University and Howard University of Washington, D.C. Last Thanksgiving Byrd won the game for Lincoln by making an 90-card run for a totebuck. Byrd, now a junior at Lincoln, is a graduate of the Lincoln High School His parents, Rev. Dr. and Mrs William A. Byrd, reside at 764 Ocean avenue.

We are happy at the thought of being able to enter the
sonal Theatre last week to witness the new colored musi-
l comedy show by Messrs. Miller and Lyle, entitled "Run-
Wild" without placing the producers to a disadvantage
interacting them to have assumed the opportunities of our
and in one fell swoop surpassing that most delightful simplicity of the previous season known as "Shuffle Along." The thing uppermost in our mind was the apprehension that they might have fallen from the high standard they set in the previous show, hence it was with a feeling akin to the joy that rises within us at the success of the worthy that we found "Runmin' Wild" adhering to a standard which, if maintained, will keep the Miller and Lyle offerings before the American public for a long time to come.
In spite of any argument to the contrary, the confession must be made that the colored critic's beliefs embraces only that section of New York occupied by colored people known as Harlem except at such time when some big colored company is appearing on Broadway, the Latoyette and sometimes the Belfast being his stamping ground, hence it is easy to rise and remark that "Bumma" Wild" has been successful in accomplishing that which is other colored show has done, and that is to remain in the class that shows like "Shuffle Along."
The thing that impressed us lies with "Rummin' Wild" is that Miller and Lyle in the thrill of a simple stryp that runs throughout the show have remained at all times within this realm of POSSI-ILIARY, not for a moment forcing them to stretch the imagination to the breaking point and camouflage the whole thing with forced lengths that leaves us grinning because we entered the theatre with the expectation of laughing. Successful playwrights and authors have won their recognition, nine times out of ten, by depleting on the stage or recording between the covers of a book the things of everyday life, and in tragedy or comedy that which will hold our fancy most are the things within the realm of possibility.
Forgetting for the moment the many things in the show, which to our mind are but incidental to that unrealized, by the comedians and serves only to keep one in good spirits while they are off the stage, it is easy to see the possibility of two characters like Sam Peck (Anthony Lyle), and Steve Jenkins (Gregory Miller), travelling over a road, brought with the comedy and Sunny situations by which Miller and Lyle, by being able to so convincingly reproduce for our environment, prove themselves to be superior to all the others who made the race for Broadway from the closed districts.
However, while it is true that we might have been more concerned about the work of Miller and Lyle, blind indeed would we have been to the many other virtues of this show which found so much favor before coming here. I believe that we are indubitable. Miss Lyle Webb for the splendid anime in which the chorus sends over its Saldom have we seen a bunch of young women working with such precision and in such uniform and our hats must come off to a young woman who happens to be one of the very few graduating from the chorus with brains enough to do what she has done. Much as we would like to, we find it im-
possible to rave over the music
of all the song numbers "Old-Fashioned Love" will be the only one
to stand out even though there are
many tuneful numbers, but they
are of the brand you like while in
the theatre and which you readily
forget the moment you get outaid.
Of individuals in the show whose
work you will like above the age
you will find George Stevens
and Revella Huntman Ma Duncan,

to wit: George Stampet, Ralph Bryson and Tommy Woods. They tell that Tommy Woods is the ventriloquist of Johnnie Woods, the ventriloquist. Well, I think we can say without scar of contradiction that Johnnie is the best ventriloquist we have got, and before another mouth passes thousands, when they see Tommy dance, will voice the opinion that he is in a class all by himself.
The work of the female quartette you will also like. We almost forgot that Lonel Monagas, a former member of the Lafayette Stock Company, is making a bid for new honors and we hope successfully as he looks and acts his part to our satisfaction. In conclusion let us repeat that if you want to enjoy a trip full of fun, dancing, pretty girls and beautiful scenery, buy a ticket and follow Sam Peck and Steve Jenkins from Jintown, to St. Paul and back. There are many things in the show which prove that Miller and Lyfe are creating while others are busy trying to imitate.

About Things Theatrical
Dear Sir; Pardon my intrusion upon you, but I merely wish to get a thing or two off of my chest.
Previous to the appearance of Whitney & Tutt's production, "North Ain't South," you were advising the world that a real musical comedy was in the making, and further assured us that we would see something worth while on its appearance.
Now, as you know, the production was a mess. Very, very disappointing. No liberty-loving race man could applaud its propaganda. All of this you no doubt readily agree with me, but may I ask—why your silence? In my opinion you owe to your reading public your opinion of the "play." You must admit that the billing should have been, "The Ku Klux Klan and Hoke Smith, Inc., Presenta Whitney and Tutt in North Ain't South." Such propaganda as is contained in this production should have caused the producers to exact thousands of dollars from the "Migration-Hinderaers" of the South. Will you kindly let us know your thoughts as to the above mentioned.
Prince Miller can produce the documentary show 'In the shortest space of time than anyone in Hardam. However, you can never see any good in Mr. Miller's efforts. As you make known your opinion of his shows, then be broad-minded enough to admit the deficiencies of your friends. I remain

Mae Murray Tells of a Woman
Beauty First—Then Brains to the New Lincoln of the Curr
What sort of a man do women like best?
What sort of a woman do men like best?
These two questions were asked of Mae Murray, famous screen comedienne, by a prominent English writer on the occasion of a private showing in New York recently of Miss Murray's latest picture, "The French Doll." This picture was made from the sensational Broadway success of last season, starred in by Irene Bordoni and adapted from a celebrated French play.
The question was pertinent, as the story of "The French Doll," is some extent, hinges on the choice which the heroine makes 'among several suffitors. "The French Doll" is scheduled to open at the Lincoln Theatre today.
"I think the type of women men like best of all," Miss Murray said. "Is the petite charmer, the sort of woman to whom life is a romance and to whom luxury, wealth, beauty and love are necessary to make life bearable. I don't mean the butterfly man. But the variety of man demands that his woman be entirely intelligent enough to be desired by other man, that he might glory in his possession. "Such women make men strive, they inspire them indirectly to better things. To keep that woman man feels that he must prove himself to her superior to other men, to out-distance them." . . .

scene, with embellishment, was offered and the crowds at the little theatre enjoyed the work of the popular comedians.
Those above mentioned were assisted by a lively chorus. We understand that Hunter is busily engaged in preparing a new book
In the assistance of two of our leading colored theatrical man which he hopes to have ready by the end of the present season. With Alex Rogers furnishing the lyrics and Luckeyth Roberta supplying the music, Hunter's voice will soon be heard on the Victor Theater, where he savors of the Bert Williams kind, will certainly appeal to thousands who have enjoyed the work of the late comedian.
What last week looked like a inch for George Williams in the hurdle billiard tournament is now a doubtful three-man tie. As outsider, Aaron Stancell, who was ninth in the running, defeated Williams in their game.
Before this time, the only tie was for second places between Scotch and Hogland, with five wins and two losses, while Williams had five wins and one loss, with one to play. But Stancell, who had almost dominated his game to Williams, was persuaded to play his string out, and the unexpected happened, with the result that the three-man tie will be played on Tuesday evening, November 6, at the club.

It must have been an awfully sad blow to those Americans in France who, having heard of the wonderful success of "The Emperor Jones" with our own Charlie Glipin in the title role, figured that another man could overnight step into the role created by the American colored man and duplicate the wonderful work that brought him the praise of leaders of thought on this side of the Atlantic.
We do not know the cause of Glipin remembering on this side while the show was being waged in France, but we do know that from now on "The Emperor Jones" without Charlie Glipin will be as empty as a graveyard in the early morning hour.
A despatch from the other side last week contagued the following bit of information from those interested:
"Eugene O'Neill's play, 'The Emperor Jones,' which opened here at the Theatre de l'Odonn recently, was about as impressive as a motion picture film of a salmon fishery or the Colorado Canyon seen from the front of a speeding locomotive, according to one Parisian critic.
"In general, the reviewers were silent, and except in a few instances the production, which was for the benefit of a Franco-American fund to erect a monument in memory of athletes killed during

We might add in conclusion that this is the greatest tribute that could be paid to Glipin. for a man had been secured whom the critics told us before the appearance of the play in French would surpass Glipin. He has surpassed him all right, but the other way.

Fine Houses Turned Out Last Week Which Should Be Duplicated, as This Will Be Last Week Here
Billy Higgins, who arrived in town ill last week but gave the best in him and pleased thousands to the Lafayette Theatre, felt much better and the way he sent over his staff kept audiences in an uprere during every minute of the time he occupied the stage.
"Follow Me!" this season arrived in town with everything that goes to make an unusual evening's entertainment at the Lafayette, and on Saturday night they had to hang out the old S. R. O. sign early. We understand that the production will be playing in and around New York for the next four or five weeks and from what we have seen of it we can make bold to predict that Wellington will enjoy his best season in this part of the country.
The usual matinees, with the big midnight show on Friday 'night' will be given this week. It is said that the "Runnin' Wild" Company will come out in full force: this Friday night to applaud their fellow performers, the "Follow Me" bunch, having planned to turn out at the Colonial Theatre this Thursday midnight.
Difficult to Analyze Liking of White People for This Class of Song, Says Mail Writer
(From The Evening Mall.)
The type of song known as "Bluza" has achieved such a remarkable vogue that some information regarding its origin ought to be of interest to the reader of this page.
It is just about three years ago that a member of the General Photograph Corporation heard a Southern colored girl sing one of these pieces.
The rapt interest and evident enjoyment of her bearers suggested the idea that the Southern cotton pickers would be large buyers of phonographs and records if the latter consisted of the type of song which he had just heard and were made by colored singers.
The idea, bore fruit when Mamie Smith, who is now famous, as an exponent of "blues" songs, made one of these records and it was
placed on the market. The experiment, proved to be an astonishing success, for the demand for the record was beyond expected limits. But what was still more surprising was that it cold just as much to the white people as to the colored option players (or what was intended. This may simply be borne out by the fact that, in the singing acts on our yepodville stage about two out of every three are "blues" songs. It is rather difficult to analyze this liking by white people for a song which it was expected would appeal only to the colored race.
That it is is "something new" occurs the best explanation.
The "blues" are now strongly entrenched in pebbles terror. They have given great pleasure to unkind thousands of colored people in the South (and just as many elsewhere) where they have helped to introduce the phonograph. They will probably lead to a desire to hear a higher quality of music, and by so doing will have served in the superior of musical missionaries.
Success or failure. New York will next week witness an epiphany making event that will take its place in the history of New York's strife to be spoken (with long breath, if not in this generation) assuredly in the next, when Professor J. Lawrence Freeman offers the opera "Vendetta" at the festival Theatre. Even so, it does not worn in the art of the theatre, the venture is a standoff one and a task which only unpauses has faced many obstacles and overcame, them would dare attempt.
Professor Freeman is an accomplished musician, who has refused to pander to a morbid craze in the lowest in "fizz," and has steadily stink to the realm occupied only by learned miffle in the spirit of music. Any attempt to predict how this new, superintreme will appeal to our people would be premature, for we have shown a perversity to slapstick and low comedy which is at times alarming.
If we have truly made the process of which we are grateful, then curiosity, if nothing else, should draw us to the Lafayette Theatre next week. A high-class opera, with seventy people, an hour of sleeping, by something so much out of the ordinary it will be with a touch of curiosity on our part to see how one people will respond.

Unless the people of Harlem wake up the new trade school for girls which the Board of Education authorized time ago will be built in some other section, making it inaccessible to our girls and losing for the community the moral, as well as the educational, effect such a school located within the limits of our part of Harlem would have. For some time the city has been conducting a trade school for girls, known as the Manhattan Trade School, in East Twenty-second street. This is the first, and the only, school of its kind in Manhattan, and has become very congeated. Located as it is far downtown, and in a section of the city where few of our people live, the attendance of our girls there has always been small. Lately, it has been said that even though this attendance is small, certain influences we beeh at work to keep that number even smaller. The training to be had at the trade school is of the highest quality and those who graduate from there are equipped to earn their living through many well-paying trades.
Because of the great congestion at the Manhattan Trade School, at year the Board of Education had to erect another trade school somewhere in the northern part of burlam, and one in Brooklyn. At in October meeting of the local school board, presided over by Dr. J. Conroy, District Superintendent, a suggestion was made that in new school for Harlem be located at 130th street and Old roadway. This suggestion seemed to meet with some favor among the members of the local board and pay be the ultimate choice of that day. Still another site was suggested on Washington Heights. Other site would take the school or away from the heart of the suburb where the majority of our people live, would leave us in almost a small woost such a school as an location of the original trade school in East 22d street has left
- Sentiment Must Come.
Another meeting of the local card will be held this month. In its meantime, the civic organization churches, clubs, etc., of our people should begin at once to render sentiment for bringing the school into our part of Harlem, or at least into some part that will nearer to the homes of the vast number of our girls who will be liable to attend. This sentiment will have to be worked up quickly and in a hearty manner, for other actions are going about the securing of the school in an energetic manner. The minds of the authorities are still open, and, with properly directed sentiment, our people and just as good a chance of sizing the school as do the people any of the sections already mentioned, or in some sections that may yet be mentioned.
One of the tentative ideas that has been suggested by the Civic League is the old mansion at 131st street and Fifth avenue. Located there, the school would be of indivisible value to our girls, and be in a good location to serve of Harlem. In the agitation our people may begin, their intention is apt to be directed to pre-vocational school for girls attached at P. S. 119. in West 13d street, where it might be said girls are taught trades. This does not in the slightest discover the activities of a real side school, yet, it is said, when his sometimes express a desire to fund the Manhattan Trade school, they are judiciously scarce to P. S. 119. Incidentally, it could be well for the people of aristom to keep in closer touch with the school system. There is.
instance, the new school the 140th street which is rapidly completion. Shall the of that school, where the tendance will be 85 per cent of race, be white? Or, shall the be one of our qualified Unless the people of n wake up and bring pressure bear on the proper authorities, will not only lose the principle of the new school, but they Il lose the location of the pro- trade school.

TOOK TENANT FOR
THIEF; KILLED HIM
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. E—Henry Williams of 2850 East Monmouth street was shot and killed early Monday morning as he was entering the home where he and his wife resided. Stonewall Jackson, the landlord, is being held by the police, charged with the shooting. According to Jackson's statement, he heard strange noises down stairs and, believing Mr. and Mrs. Williams to be asleep on the third floor, he attributed the noise to some intruder. He, therefore, took his revolver and stepped out into the hall. Peering through the darkness he saw a figure moving towards the stairs, and, without waiting a moment, Jackson fired. On discovering his tragic mistake, Jackson was heart-broken. Williams died almost immediately.

ZATSO? BLACK CATS ARE
LUCKY!
MEMPHIS, Tennessee, Nov. 5,—"I am ready to defend my home if the Ku Klux Klan ever comes to see me," was the calm statement of Lorena Holmes, aged 25 years, of Marion, Ark., when officers asked him why he had so many shotguns in his home.
According to the police, Holmes was seen several times in the streets here with a package that looked so much like a gun that it was thought advisable to secretly investigate what he was doing with them. Two detectives were ordered to shadow Holmes' movements. They followed him to his home. They had a "John Doe" search warrant, resulting in the discovery of a dozen shotguns and several pistols, as well as a large quantity of ammunition.
He showed the officials that he had purchased the guns. He also informed them that he had been collecting these five guns for the past ten years. The officers claim that Holmes has some of the finest makes of shotguns. Holmes is said to be a well respected man in his community.

(Proton News Service.)

NEW VOTERS TO
VOTE AGAINST KLAN
The New York Evening World's Washington correspondent stated last week that Negroes who have migrated to the North will vote against the Ku Klux Klan in the next election, when the Klan "will inevitably be an issue before the Republican and Democratic National Conventions"
Continuing he states that:
"The situation in the Republican Party arises out of the fact that the Republican vote in some of the pivotal Northern States has been increased since 1920 by hundreds of thousands of colored voters who have migrated northward. They are demanding that the Republican Party denounces not only lynch law but all forms of lawlessness and all operations of secret outbound organizations.
Dr. E. D. Collymore Speaks to Children
Dr. Erold D. Collymore, a graduated of the Howard University Dental College (class of '23), now practicing at No. 201 W. 14th st., was assigned, on November 1st, Health Day, by the Oral Hygiene Committee of New York, to deliver a health lecture to the pupils of Public School No. 116, at 211 East 32nd street, New York City.
The theme of the lecture was "The 100 Per Cent Bodys" with special reference to the care of the teeth, and particularly the 6 year molars.
The doctor was very well received at the school, and was accorded the most respectful, intense, and sustained interest throughout the thirty minutes of his lecture.
The applause at the end of his lecture was spontaneous and hearty.
He was highly congratulated by the principal for the manner of his delivery; for his ability to talk "down" to the pupils; and keeping them constantly interested. There were about 300 children—and all white.
Because he kissed two boys who, it is said, had sucked him with flour on Halloween night, Amos Thomas, jailed, 553 W. 182nd st. cause near drawing a workhouse sentence from Magistrate Moikiny in night court. He got instead a fee of $19 or 10 days in jail.
Robert Perkinson, 118 W. 182th st. a clerk in the Department of Structure, told the Magistrate that he saw Thomas knock down the boys at 18th st. and Leonor Ava, and then kick them as they lay on the sidewalk. According to Perkinson, none of the boys "bocked" the defendant.
George Arliss, 11, 38 W. 184th st. said that Thomas had assaulted him although he had not touched him. Thomas admitted striking the boys, but said that he had done so after they had hit him with stockings filled with ashes, flour and sand.
"There was provocation for you to hit them, or I'd send you to the workhouse," said the magistrate. "I don't believe in such rowdiness on holidays or any other time."
LANDLORD MAKES REPAIRS
SENTENCE 10 SUSPENDED

Fell to Courtyard While Hanging Out Clothes; Leg Injured.
Away back in 1920, while Mrs. Anna Ritter of 422 Lenox avenue was standing on a row below her bedroom window hanging out clothes, a part of the window frame gave way, causing the line to throw her into the courtyard, sustaining injuries to her right leg. Mrs. Ritter was removed in an ambulance to Harlem Hospital where she remained for a week. After leaving the hospital she was attended by Dr. Griffin, who succeeded in practically restoring the full use of her limbs. Shortly after the accident Mrs. Ritter engaged counsel to bring suit for damages incurred by her injuries. The attorney, however, ultimately refused to proceed with the action upon the

College at Tallahassee, arrived in
the city on Saturday from Tallahassee,
from which place he had left
on receiving a note ordering him
to leave at ease. Deep Thomas
said that the authors of author of
the note were unknown to him, and
he could not explain the reason
why the note was sent to him. He
further said that he found it necessary
to walk through the breeze to
catch the train stage, so one
was allowed to leave the station
by the armed guards.
When questioned as to his attitude, toward the present administration Dean Thomas said he was perfectly willing and satisfied to work under the present administration as he had worked under the former one, and had made this known to those in authority. He denied that the charges of being disgruntled returned to him, since he was satisfied under the present administration.
He left the city on Monday for his former home in Virginia and said he expected to have another position in a few days.

ground that he did not think there was any liability on the part of the landlord. Mrs. Ritter threw upon retained Abraham Oberstein, an attorney at 261 Broadway, who immediately had the case called for trial. There was a very bitter struggle in the courtroom, as the lawyers for the landlord tried to convince Supreme Court Justice Glegerich and a jury in Trial Turn, Part XIV, that the verdict should be in favor of the landlord. After a trial leading two days the jury retried and swung in a verdict in favor of Mrs. Ritter for the sum of $8,000.
Mrs. Hitter is especially skilled with the result, because the long interval since 1920 it often seemed that she would not recover damages. Now that she has received her verdict, however, most of her cares have been lifted from her shoulders.

Many of them not only pledged themselves to give toward the expense of the work for the Branch, but also pledged their time and energy in interesting others in the 1974 campaign now imminent.

THEN Peter began to speak, "I clearly see," said he, "that God makes no distinction between one man and another; but that in every nation, those who fear Him and live good lives are acceptable to Him." Acts: 10:34-35.
Peter was a strict Jew and shared fully the opinion of his race that God made them out of better clay than He used when making the Gentiles. In fact, though, he with the other apostles had been commissioned to "go the whole world over and proclaim the good news to all mankind," he still believed that good news was for the Jews only. Not until the house-top vision did he give a thought about the Gentiles' claim on salvation. Not until he heard Cornellus himself tell of the heavenly messenger to him did he get big enough to say, "I clearly see that God makes no distinction between one man and another."
You will please note that:
1. These men of different races were brought to fraternal relations because both were men of race. Cornellus, was praying when the priest gave him stood in front of him and gave him the knowledge that his prayer was heard, together with the instruction that he send for the Peter. Peter was on the house-top in prayer when he saw the priest relieved him of race prejudice by enamination without which no man can live his largest and best.

The St. Andrew's Baptist Church Rev. M. B. Huccus, D. D., pastor worshipping at the St. Luke Hall 125 West 130th street. New York City, has recently purchased the live his largest and best.
2. These men of different races were both open-minded as to divine guidance. The angel told Cornelius to send for Peter and to refill with. He did not stop to refill with. He did not attitude of the Jews towards Gentile world and conclude that it was no use to send for a proud Israelite. Neither did Peter refuse to respond to the request of Cornelius, on the ground that it would be a condescension damaging his social standing and religious order. He ordered him to so and that was enough. Social relations that could be damaged and religious consternity that could be hurt by doing God's will are not worth protecting.
3. Relations between white men and black men in the United States will not reach the point of brotherhood like Cornelius and Peter, the leaders on both sides become:
1. Men and women of prayer: People who do not pray should not be entrusted with the responsibility of leadership. A leader must have the ability to pray alone can give. Especially is this true as regards the Negro leader. There is so much against him, so much to provoke to anger, so much to discourage, so much to discourage, that it is absolutely necessary for him to keep his head on top. The only guarantee of a level head under trying circumstances is the prayer habit. The Negro leader must pray every day or sometimes the door of hope will close.
The white man needs to pray for humility, especially when he thinks of himself in relation to the Negro. He is so prone to disregard the Scripture which says, "I warn every individual among you not to be humiliated; only humility is the mark of the man who prays, white or black. It not only marks the man who prays, but it is an outstanding characteristic of the man who thinks correctly and who is of dependable plety. Theo are all requisites of true leadership and emphasize the necessity of prayer as a condition to interracial co-operation. 2. We must be open to divine guidance, like Cornelius and Peter, before, like them, we can meet on terms of brotherhood. White men and black men of America, "we be brethren," Denial does not alter the fact. Dr. Lyman who is a black man with than when he said, "To deny 'the brotherhood of man is to deny the fatherhood of God."
Leaving out religion and ethics, we should be brethren in practice because it adds to our personal popularity. The practice of brotherhood is the strongest political pull one can have. White men do not lose anything by being and groverg if the two are asked the same name be two greatest presidents this country has hall. the two names that would head the list would be Abraham Lincoln, the emancipator, and Theodore Roosevelt with a Nazi.
Nor does the Negro lose by getting close to the white man. In fact, the greatest leaders the race has produced are those Negroes who have been able to get most from the white man for eight years. Book Writer Walt Johnson our greatest leader because he brought to the race the co-operation of the white people of widest influence and greatest wealth as no other Negro had done. Since the greatest of white men and the greatest Negroes America has produced are those Negroes who have interracial co-operation, suppose we all of us add to our personal usefulness by following their lead.

MEMBER OF MOSES REINSTATED
Mrs. Mabel L. Jenkins Wins Two Year Fight in Supreme Court; Expelled. For Accepting Gift.
After a fight lasting more than a year Mrs. Mabel L. Jenkins, member of the Ancient United order of the Sons and Daughters, Brothers and Sisters of Moses, has won her fight for reinstatement in the order from which she had been expelled.
Mrs. Jenkins' expulsion came about in this way: On March 18, 1922, a committee was appointed by the order, called the Peter Paul Brown Committee, whose function it was to take charge of a celebration in commemoration of the birth of Mr. Brown. Subsequently a reception was held at the Harlem Casino, which was a success. Mrs. Jenkins was elected assistant secretary of the committee, and at the final meeting of the committee a murdered working member of the committee with some gift of appreciation for their work. Mrs. Jenkins was presented with a tendollar bill.
Soon after, a written charge was brought against Mrs. Jenkins by certain members of the organization, which alleged that she willfully defrauded the organization in accepting and voting to receive $10. No requests were made previous to this charge for the return of the money, nor was any objection made to the delivery, and the vote of the majority of the committee to award certain members $10.
Subsequently, on August 5, 1922, Mrs. Jenkins was tried by the organization, found guilty, and expelled. She thereafter retained Harold S. Eudner, attorney, 111 Broadway, to secure an order of mandamus for reinstatement in the Order.
In April, 1923, an order was signed by Justice James A. O'Malley of the Supreme Court of New York directing the Order to relocate Mrs Jenkins to all her rights or to show cause why this order should not be obeyed.
This order was served upon the Deputy Grand Master of the organization, but Mrs. Jenkins was not offered, reinstatement, nor was any answer filed to the petition. The time for answering having expired, a subsequent order was signed by Justice Isidore Wasservogel, on June 25, making the first order final.
A recent decision of Judge Wasservogel held that Mrs. Jenkins was entitled to the order of mandates, and that she was not guilty of defrauding the organization, and was appointed to the $10.

T. Arnold hill of Chicago and Charles S. Johnson Discuss Migration at Kansas City Conference
of Urban League.
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 5.—Ch of Research and Investigation League and formerly associated Race Relations Committee, dismigration from the South. "That has had three phases," said John to the towns; then the search land; and third, the movement to ern industrial fields. "Oppression plays a part, but population shows the same tide this part is a minor one. The spring of the migration, better treatment being the leading has enfranchised a quarter million must be reckoned with."
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 5.—Charles S. Johnson, Director of Research and Investigation of the National Urban League and formerly associate secretary of the Chicago Race Relations Committee, discussed the causes of Negro migration from the South. "The movement of Negroes has had three phases," said Johnson. "First, the movement to the towns; then the search for more productive farm land; and third, the movement to the Northern and Western industrial fields.
"Oppression plays a part, but the fact that the white population shows the same tendency in shifting proves that this part is a minor one. The economic urge is the mainspring of the migration, better wages, better schools, better treatment being the leading factors. The migration has enfranchised a quarter million Negroes and this factor must be reckoned with."
Miss Julia Lathrop, ex-President of the National Conference of Social Work and head of the Children's Bureau of the U. S. Dept. of Labor, stressed the point that the adjustment of the relations of the races is a problem for the entire country and not for the South alone.
T. Arnold Hill, of Chicago, Western Field Executive of the National Urban League, told of his experiences with the migrant Negro in Chicago. "It is our duty, our work, to see that the evils—poor schools, disfranchisement, poor treatment—which have driven these Negroes from their former homes shall not exist in this new land to which they have come. There is a tremendous field of service in changing the attitude both of white and of the colored people themselves to that mental state that will permit of the fullest development of each race. The church is the institution through which this must be brought about."
Rev. Bray, Educational Secretary of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in commenting upon the speeches, told how the migration is changing the attitude of the Southern white man.
Prominent People Present.

Segregation School Fight in Southern Kansas
BY WILLIAM PICKENS
Kansas, Missouri and som dering on the South permit wide separate schools for whi discretion of the local board at that the whole matter will wishes of the majority--white to the sentiments of colored t
Kansas, Missouri and some other "Northern" States bordering on the South permit the local school boards to provide separate schools for white and colored children, in the discretion of the local board and (white) people. That means that the whole matter will be adjusted according to the wishes of the majority-white people-never with any regard to the sentiments of colored people.
Most of such communities provide separate grammar grade schools for white and colored, and to save expenses for the larger white community, they "admit" the colored students who manage to finish grammar school to the one high school. Naturally, the separation in the earlier years makes the colored child who enters the high school seem like a sort of inter-racial child. He is painfully tolerated in the school and many things are set so as to make it so uncomfortable that he will won't come, or will soon leave.
grade school, while the junior high stands for white children only.
The nasty phase of this war is that it is a war of grown-up white men against little colored children. Great, grown, whiskered, gray and grizzly white men fighting against little brown children, denying their right to even the half deal which they were being already given. If you know of any more cowardly action than that, describe it.
It seems that most of the parents are resolved to be arrested, and fight it out, until their children are either admitted to this school, or a junior high school is built for them. Attorneys are being employed from Topeka. Such parents are worthy of such children. It is the fight of the Klan to push colored children out of public schools of the North. We must meet that fight!
This scene was working in Codleyville, Kana—and then the city set out to get a "junior high" school. The white advocates went, is usual, to all the colored churches and persuaded the colored letter to for the necessary bond issue, plotting the like. Zens would have to pay for this school and that it would be "free to all alike" etc. BUT THE COLORED PEOPLE DID NOT GET IT IN WRITING.
FOOTBALL ALL THE RAGE AT WILBERFORCE
And so when the great new "junior high" was enrolling for the year in September, the superintendent of schools, who with most of the board belongs to the Ku Klux Klan, finally refused to enroll any scored child. When the seventh, eighth and ninth grades went up on the days appointed for the respective enrollment of those grades, they were met by the cold, usual stars of the white teachers and told to go back home. No junior high school is provided for them. They are simply turned out, but I want to tell the attention-gragged grown-ups to the fact that although they were told before and not to come and that they would not be enrolled, these children went and compelled the teachers and officers to actively release them. And when one class meet and was refused, the next grade did not stay away, but went to next day to get its own case and denial of rights.

WILBERFORD, O., Nov. 5.—Just now football seems to be all the go. The team left here Wednesday for Washington, D. C., to meet Howard University. On Thanksgiving Day the biggest game of the season will be played in Columbus, O., when the local team will mix fates with the strong team from Institute West Virginia. Arrangements have been made to carry the entire student body to Columbus to root for the team. Preparations for basketball are being carried on with a vengeance. From all indications Wilberfords will have one of the best basketball teams over sent out from this institution this year. Dean Mohr is especially proud of the showing the boys are making in this sport. The game last Saturday with Roger Williams was practically a set-up for Wilberfords. They won. 5-3. Although the Tennessee lads played a surprisingly clever game, they never carried the Ohio lads to extend themselves to the fullest.
Then the Ku Klux board turns
out, just as they have turned on
ov. Walton of Oklahoma, and
gives to "get there first" by suing
the colored parents for not send-
ing their children to school!

OHIO CONSTITUTION
(Launcol Service.)
Ohio is the only State in the Union with a Constitution that says that all voters must be white. That Constitution today says that, to be a voter, one must be a "white male citizen of the United States of the age of twenty-one years." This restriction, of course, is nullified by the United States Constitution, which, in Article XV, the amendment adopted in 1870, grants equal rights of suffrage. The last effort to remove the word "white" from the State Constitution was unsuccessfully made in 1918, when forty-two amendments were submitted. The one eliminating the word "white" was defeated by a vote of 265,693 to 242,785.

Remove the Stain
IN A SERIES OF MEETINGS the Police Department has sought to refute its "slanderers" and to tell the people how good the Police Department really is. This is entirely unnecessary, because citizens of the Greater City are well versed in both the virtues and vices of the man in the blue uniform. For eight hours, more or less, he is on exhibition. The citizen on his way to work in the morning sees him assisting school children across the street; later in the day he sees him helping an old man or woman; he notes the willingness with which he risks his life to protect inhabitants of the city at fires, against burglars and gunmen, and at night on his way home he sees him making his rounds to see that entrances to business and industrial establishments are securely fastened.
LIKEWISE, he notes, the indifference with which some members of the police force discharge their duties to school children, the aged and the infirm; he notes that haughty, unrespectable way he is dealt with by some police captains and lieutenants when he has an occasion to go to a police precinct; occasionally, he sees a cowardly patrolman hesitate to discharge his sworn duty when chasing desperate characters and how bold this same patrolman is when he places a respectable man or woman under arrest. The eyes of the citizen never fail to see a patrolman loitering around a bootlegging joint or a disreputable pool parlor. Sometimes they are seen to stagger out of illicit saloons.
THE AVERAGE CITIZEN seldom sees the virtues or vices of the individual officer. As a taxpayer, he knows that it is the policeman's duty to uphold the law and to protect the public. He knows that no man has a right to be on the police force unless he is strong physically, intelligent and has the ability to think—and think quickly—in an emergency. For this reason when the individual patrolman fails to discharge his duty or is seen drunk in uniform, or is dis courteous, the act is charged against the whole department, much the same as the entire Negro race is held up to ridicule because of the acts of one or two of its members.
THIS METHOD of appraising the police force of the city is unjust, but the fault lies with the "department" and not with the people. In nine cases out of ten, we believe that the average lieutenant or captain willingly prefers charges against any officer found derelict in his duty, when it is brought to his attention. What happens after this is beyond his control. Why then are officers found derelict in the discharge of their duties often retained in the service? The answer is simple. Favoritism and political influence are brought to bear and the charges are whitewashed and the officers let off with reprimands, light fines or suspensions of a few days' duration.
BY FAR the most damaging accusation placed at the door of the police department is the so-called "third degree." We believe that when it is necessary an officer is justified in using his club or his gun in placing a resisting law-breaker under arrest. We do not, however, believe that it is the duty of a police officer, high or low, to beat, kick, maim or torture a man already placed under arrest and confined in a station house, to get him to confess. We know, too, that a man accused on trial for his life or his liberty will resort to any means to clear himself, often charging that he has been ill-treated or "framed-up" by the police. There is such charges against the police are without foundation; but where there is confelled
to be some fire. Each citizen retains in his mind a vivid recollection of a case of brutality or "frame-up" on the part of officers and each time a crime of this kind is charged against the force he recalls this case to his mind, and reasoning from the known to the unknown, he realizes that it is possible for the charge to be true.
THERE IS BUT ONE WAY to remove atains from the Police Department and that is to remove the man or men, high' or low, colored or white, responsible for them. The fact that an accused officer has good political connections should have nothing to do with the case.
A Final Word

HOWEVER, this must not be mean that the colored voter is obvote for a man simply because he is when his election will tend to community or when he is put up which in the very nature of thing alterably opposed to the masses of Thirty-one political jobs, paying from $1,200 to $5,000 per year, is a price to pay for the self-respect of community of 150,000. Let the thirty groes who have accepted patron hands of Tammany Hall and the United Democracy vote for Democrat want to. They have been given to vote for Democrats and to try to vote for them. Don't be fooled.

Letters to the Edit
"World Traveler"
THIS ISSUE of The Amsterdam News will reach voters in the Greater New York district a few hours before the election. Our final word is that every registered voter go to the polls and discharge his duty as a citizen of the State and Nation. Up to a few years ago there was not a Negro candidate in the field; today there are five, some of which are compelled to be elected. This is progress. To hold the ground already won vote for a Negro candidate wherever possible.
HOWEVER, this must not be taken to mean that the colored voter is obligated to vote for a man simply because he is colored, when his election will tend to corrupt the community or when he is put up by a party which in the very nature of things is unalterably opposed to the masses of Negroes. Thirty-one political jobs, paying salaries of from $1,200 to $5,000 per year, is too small a price to pay for the self-respect of a community of 150,000. Let the thirty-one Negroes who have accepted patronage at the hands of Tammany Hall and the United Colored Democracy vote for Democrats if they want to. They have been given these jobs to vote for Democrats and to try to get you to vote for them. Don't be fooled.
EVERYWHERE there are evidences of the price the community is paying for these jobs. Bootleggers, robbers, murderers, petty thieves and houses of ill fame are doing a thriving business, preying upon the better class of citizens and in too many instances receiving protection at the hands of corrupt politicians.
FOR THIS REASON The Amsterdam News urges the election of candidates to office who will curb this growing lawlessness and raise the standing of the community.
The death of Mrs. Mary B. Talbert ended the career of a vigorous Recruiter who known throughout the United States. As an official of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Mrs. Talbert was a prominent speaker with air of earnestness that impressed you, and her familiarity with events that were harmless to her people was always equanimity at her command. Probably her greatest work, which is a monument and which will be handed to posterity, is the reclaiming and dedication of the Fred Douglas homeestead in Amacosta, near Washington, which work she did her committee completed less than two years ago. Because of her efforts in the establishment and perpetuation of the Douglas homeestead, Mrs. Talbert was awarded the Spingam Medal in 1922. In her death, Buffalo lost its most distinguished colored citizen.

Dear Sir: I was somewhat overjoyed when I finished reading your wonderful editorial in Wednesday's edition of your uplifting paper entitled, "Using the Law to Enforce Personal Prejudice."
It seems from the way that editorial was written that you have either traveled extensively or become quite familiar with the facts from a most reliable source.
I recently, say a few months, returned from a trip that took me through China, Japan, all the Sea Islands, the Philippines islands, and in fact all through the Orient, including Vladivostok in Siberia. It is exactly as you quote about the other fellow going to colored countries and forcing his attention upon women of those countries. Particularly in the Philippine islands. Right now between the left bank of the Pasig River near the city of Manila, far down between Cuba and Iloilo and almost to Jolo. there are thousands of white men married to Filipino women and others that keep company with them otherwise. The thing that would strike one as being peculiar are that nine out of every ten are Southern white men. Men mostly from Georgia and Alabama, born and raised in the South. And with the man from the South, as far as his actions are concerned, it is all right and the white Manila authorities "alt tight," see nothing, bear nothing.
And believe me, Mr. Editor, I lived for five years in the city of Manila, and in that time I saw the American man's actions. The same thing happens also up around Tien Tai and Peking in China.
"FROM 'SUPERMAN' TO MAN"
Fifteenth Installment
66 HAPPEN to know many such myself," confirmed Dixon warmly. "Many Negroes do not care to work under
bosses of their own group because of the severity and exactions of many of them. During slavery, as you know, the most brutal slave-drivers came from among the slaves. This trait, I fear, is still with us. White 'straw-bosses' by the way, are just as ignorant and imperious, as we railroad men and former soldiers know only too well. Persons like these, black or white, badly need lessons in what, to me, represents the only real superiority—courteous conduct."
Dixon remembered the other's conduct that first afternoon in the smoker. He continued in even, impersonal tones: "My idea of a superior man is one who has, first of all, an instinctive consideration for the feelings of others. Such a one does not, vulgarly or otherwise, assert his color or his social position. He would no sooner brag about his race than about himself, seeing that both these offenses against good taste are, at bottom, the same. On the contrary, however much he might see his superiority to others, he will not mention it. It is no uncommon thing to hear persons expressing their idea of their own importance by speaking contemptuously of their fellowness in such terms of 'dagen, 'aheenies, 'wopa, 'miggers, 'coona, 'poor white trash. One never hears those white men like Edison, Hughes, Debs—men who are doing something really big—bragging about their race. They leave that to the little fellows. The mere fact of a man's proclaiming his superiority is, in itself, an indication that he feels it cannot speak for itself."
Dixon could easily see that the Senator had taken his remarks personally, as he had intended he should. He felt his guilt over his lessons, and continued in a poignet, but impressive tone.
"It strikes me that the one great thing white America has yet to decide—again I accept those who practice justice—is this: Is the Negro a human being, or is he a creature somewhere between a man and a monkey? Is he an American citizen, or isn't he? He is legislated against, and everything that will help destroy His self-respect is done. In every part of this country from the Great Lakes to the Rio Grande, except in parts of Maine and Vermont, he is in some way or other made to feel lower than the most ancient Negro is the only creature treated as an occultable alien in this country; And the irony of it all is that he is expected to smile and be pleasant always." He added reflectively: "But he is going to stop smiling some of these days and settle down to serious thought. Already some of these laughing ones are like Victor Negro, Laughing Man whose face of constant laughter hid a heart full of bitterness."
Although Dixie could see that the other was getting aggrie, he continued: "Very often on these care and in other public places white men will say the most scurrilous things possible, altogether disregarding my presumed. Specially do they delight in speaking, even hoasting to me, of their amours with Negro women. Usually these are the very ones who are most sensitive of the women of their own race. Characterizing them to the jobsmiths, seems to be the principal occupation of Negroes. Very many whites seem unable to imagine a Negro, however, decent, as being anything else, but a minstrel and jokes like these are supposed to portray the full depth of Negro character, cultured and uncultured. The desire, throughout the United States, is to degrade the highest Negroes to the level of the lowest in the mass. These attitudes and sentiments cause to reflect, not a little, on this matter of superiority; for, since there are more Negroes in all the world, it is clear that we are superior to others only in proportion as we crossed them in living up to the truth. I refer particularly to the ability to recognise good qualities in others, not belonging to our own race, class or sect."
The Senator across excitedly.
This lecturing, this preammonation on the part of a Negro, he decided, was more than he could stand. He started for the doorway, but when half way he felt his pride drawing him back. No, he felt, it would never do for him to run away and leave the Negro master of the field, much as the situation enashered him. He began pacing the room, his body swaying with the motion of the train. He began to ask himself should he be angry. He confessed to himself that it was he who had started the discussion, and that the Negro, if no them, had been disgraced.
"which myself," confirmed Dixon he do not care to work under because of the severity and during slavery, as you know, came from among the slaves, with us. White 'straw-bosses,' hat and imperious, as we rail know only too well. Perhbadly need lessons in what superiority—courteous con-
ful. Indeed, he felt a sort of fascination for the frank and courteous bearing of the man. This man, he knew, was telling the truth. Why, he asked himself, should he be angry at hearing the truth? In the analysis many points between right and policy in the treatment of the Negro dawned upon him. The more concretely he saw the matter the less he liked the stand he had always taken. In this thoughtful vain he resumed his seat, lit another cigarette and relapsed into thought. After a few minutes he demanded, as he slicked the ashes from his cigarette with his anger: "Am I to assume, then, that prejudice against the Negro is a distinctly American trait?"
"No," responded the other, who had been furiously watching the play of emotions on his face. "Color prejudice, or more strictly, color egotism, is not a purely American trait. It

these countries, while the most cannibalistic were brought to us."
"You will find in reading the history of the West Indies that the slaveholders there made a reverse complaint with far juster cause. A general massacre of the whites like that, Cape Francois, Haiti, in 1791, commensurate rence. And after all why shouldn't a man be warlike in defense of his freedom?
"The Negro in every part of the world, I have noticed, is just what his treatment makes of him. In Brasil and Jamaica I found him leesely conscious of his dignity as a man and a citizen. In the United States, where, numbers are against him and where he is compelled to slick, as it were, through life, afraid to go into this or that place, wondering whether he will be saved, he is naturally timid and inclined to be spiritless. The other day the head of one of the most famous educational institutions in the world, and his wife, ejected from a sleeping-car on account of color. A similar incident would have happened, nowhere else in the world. Sir Charles Bruce, with his vast Colonial experience, very rightly said at the Universal Negro had encountered at every step of his progress "the most formidable opposition the most formidable forces of savior, fearless, hate and fear have been able to command." While I have not many whites who spite their environment, and quite unimpressed as those I met dressed as those I met, I have noticed, North, South, East and West, and particularly in the South, so general an exhibition of this feeling, oftimes from those one would think, above such petty conduct, that I have been forced to the conclusion that, for more often than not, a white skin in America is the livery of servitude to the most stupid and enacting of all trenants—Carr, Prudice. These slaves are of varying degrees—from the fanatically devoted as the lyncher to the morally timid—those who will not speak to intimate Negro acquaintances on the street for fear of what passersby will think."
The Senator did not reply. Dixon continued; "I doubt if one white person in a million of those who do not like Negroes could give himself one honest reason for his attitude. Lord Brongham expresses their reason when he says: 'I never knew anyone to hate me but those whom I had served and those who had done me some great injustice.' The plea is certainly not one of color, or why is the European, who sees little of Negroes, not prejudiced against them? Why also the great amount of racial intermurkation that has always gone on? People from certain European countries come to this country in search of great individual liberty, and it too; yet the Negro of the United States does not know how it will be to be a real man; it he goes to those countries whose these people came, so much what it was under the Czar. And what makes it harder to bear is that one bear so many affections about liberty, democracy and unlimited opportunities for all. When I returned to the United States, after I had been away by six years, I landed at a shipwreck port. There, barred from the park, libraries and places of public amusement, I felt in this heated land of freedom what the murderer of King Humbert must have experienced in his cell. The size of which did not permit him either to stand upright or to be at full length."
"Bet," objected the Senator, "the South treats the Negro far better than the North. What do you notice after passing the Mason-Dixon line coming North? That nearly all the work done by black men in the South is done by white. In the South most of the manual labor is given them. We have a large number of black men, locomotive and other workers. From which they are harmed by the mining in the North. They find rapid employment in Southern cities, while they and great few only in getting into Northern areas. Then our unmasked labor is generally given to them. Jackson, pattern walkers and domestics are all Negroes. In the North these jobs are filled by white foreigners. The Southern white man is far more sympathetic in the Negro. We know he talks.
"H AS the State you come from been overhauled by The Nation yet?" is a question frequently asked this past year. For The Nation, New York's great humanitarian weekly has been publishing a series of articles on the States of the Union. Very few have escaped unscathed. Vermont, whose story is charmingly written by Dorothy Canfield, makes the best showing, largely we surmise, because she is poor. Were she to strike some hidden mine of wealth, she might differ little from his neighbors. East, West, North and South one learns of graft and materialism, of noble ploninger to be followed by ignoble exploitation.
Statue of Lincoln Removed; Put Back
WASHINGTON—After the Democrats came into power in 1916, they looked about for some historical landmark that they might vandalize, just to show the country that the South was in the saddle. Facing the eastern approach to Judiciary Square stood one of the first statues of Abraham Lincoln, whose sadly somber features seemed, to epitomize that he had, died for human justice and to admonish those who came after him to hold the scales of righteousness evenly balanced between the races.
This was too much for the Democrats — Lincoln standing in front of the very temple of justice as a silent scourer of their broken faith and inhumanity toward the Norgu. So they removed it from its pedestal—the bronze image of the Great Emancipation Deed, hidden, hidden up, in the basement of the Agricultural Department. The Democrats were not disposed to have Lincoln pointing a reproving finger at them.
When the Republicans were returned to the control of the Government, search was instituted for the statue of the Man of Sorrows. It was recovered from its ignable excision in drive and cobwebs, and now schoolchildren and a civil visit on Judiciary Square, looking down upon the just and the majest. This should be hard to believe, but it is exactly what happened.
ATLANTA. Ga.—Editors of leading daily papers in six of the southern State have united in a signed statement asking for mutual helpfulness and cooperation between the white and colored races in the South, for adequate educational advantages for colored people, for equality before the law, and for the statement of mob police. The paper was drafted in a conference of Virginia editors and has since been signed personally, by some of the 19 other editors of leading daily in North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana.
BEAUTIFUL BERMUDA
(From the Detroit News).
The Bermudians are a hand of white men. No other color is to be seen. The shell built of the native white stone of coral formation, which sublimes every foot of soil.
When first quarried the stone is so soft that it may be cut with a knife, but it hardens with exposure to the air.
When a Bermudian wishes to build himself a house, all he has to do is to buy himself a foot or two of soil to reach his quarry. By building the stone is cut into pieces of the proper size. This fits slabs of the same material form the roof.
The house, even including the roof, are frequently white-washed on the outside, and contract strength with the deep groove venture by which they are surrounded.
EDUCATION WEEK
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11—President Dustin Johnson has issued a proclamation calling for observance of the week beginning November 18 as National Education Week.
and make allowances for them; you here he is held to the same standard as the white man without the, white man's chances. The black man knows he can always find a friend in him. Many have I helped, may have I never been prisoner. I never would wish to be with you for 30 years. This white or black, that would hurt Andi Huppy would, here to return with one foot. No matter what you say you could never encounter me that the North is a bittersweet place for your people than the South. ("To be satisfied with work")
Out of the 27 States described in this first volume, Kansas, by William Allen White, is the best piece of writing. It describes the strength and the weakness of Puritanism. One feels proud of the State's noble humanitarianism, its sobriety, its lack of degrading poverty. But with this is an absence of creative art, of appreciation and love of beauty. Can that two, one wonder, never exist together?
The Negro problem is a very present reality in "These United States." Ernest Gleason, editor of the series, wisely limits it to two of the 27 States, Mississippi and Alabama. But here he summons two of the greatest critics the South has to-day, Beulah Amidon Rattles and Clement Wood, Mrs. Battill writes of Mississippi. Her name first appeared in an article some years ago in the Atlantic Monthly, entitled "4 Man lions in Mississippi." Her story reminded one of Fannie Kempble's diary, and the Atlantic Monthly has been sparingly giving to its Southern constituency by sloppy "darky" sentiment ever since. Mrs. Battill has lost none of her force in her summary of the State in which she lived for some years.
Black and white silk are degraded by race prejudice. She shows the plantation Negro in his ignorance, his hopelessness, his hostility. But she points out clearly that the Southern planter keeps him purposely in this condition. He prefers to bear with dull, irresponsible labor rather than to use the Negro show any power. He knows that cleanliness, knowledge, would increase the Negro's ambition, and he wants the Negro in a condition as close to slavery as possible. Thus he degrades his worker and he degrades himself. Child labor, illiteracy, narrow provincialism, an inability to face facts, these attributes of white Mississippi.
Alabama is treated by Citizen
ent Wood, whose novel "Higher."
I reviewed some months ago.
Misconception is the key
note of this article, and never
has the subcot been treated
more eloquently and gracefully.
Every colored man and woman
should read it to know what
this white Alshaman is saying.
They may not agree with his
solution—absorption—but they
will follow him by enthusiastically
he reaches it. "A Study in Urk

article, and it is a great chapter
in a great book.
