RACE RIOTS Fighting Starts When perty in Section Into Mob W Philadelphia, Pa., July 20—Two white men and a colored man are dead, and a large number of both white and colored are injured as the result of race riots which have been going on in Philadelphia for the past three days, having begun Sunday af- ternoon. Trouble has been brewing since Mrs. Adelaia Bonds, a probation officer in the Municipal Court purchased a house at 2936 Ellsworth street. The people of the neighborhood, who are a low class of whites, became incensed and started stoning the house. Mrs. Bonds, who was in the house at the time, went to one of the upper rooms and in her efforts to protect her property, fired out of the window. The sheer loss of life is who is now held in $890 bail for court, charged with being one of the ring leaders in the riot. COME TO THE RESCUE When the colored men living in the smaller streets in the neighborhood heard of the attack upon Mrs. Bond they started in a body to protect her. Then the riot started which was resulted in one of the most disgrateful happenings in the annals of the city of "Brotthoff Love." The bitter racial warfare was resquired on Monday with the police, seemingly, unable to cope with the infuriated mobs. The Police Department asked for and received aid from the United States Government. Under the command of ensigns, 150 additional mounted police from League Island. They patrolled the streets, armed with long rifle clubs, similar to those used by the State police. Shortly before 5 o'clock all the saloons in the district were ordered closed, following the shooting of an arsenal employee. Later in the evening 150 additional mounted police and 84 more blue-coats, recruited from every district in the city, were dispatched to the assistance of the 300 policemen already on duty in the 350 police stations. Notwithstanding this brilliant array of authority, the riots continued. When one crowd was dispersed, another fight would begin two blocks away and the hospitals were kept busy administering to the wounded. COLORED MEN DISARMED As usual, when riots occur, the colored people were disarmed by the officers, while no serious attempt was made to deprive the whites of their weapons. The homes of a number of residents were set alire. Furniture was hurled into the streets, pictures were torn from the walls and in the streets huge bonfires made of the debris. In some streets not a single house escaped the vengeance of the mob. Notwithstanding that most of the colored people were disarmed by the PHILADELPHIA MOB SP police, they fought to protect their firesides and their property. POLICE SHOOTS COLORED MAN The colored man killed on Monday was Filey Bullock, 2032 Amin street. He was shot through the lungs as he was being led into the 20th and Federal streets station, bleeding from wounds inflicted by a mob only a few squares away. An investigation of the uptown apts out and passages squooping the streets was fired from a pistol which was held close to his back. Ramsey, one of the white policemen, who was arresting Bullock, admitted firing the shot that killed the colored man, according to Lieutenant Myers. On entering the station house, according to Lieutenant Myers, Ramsey claims his foot slipped and the weapon was accidently discharged. This version of the shooting is in direct contradiction to the first story telling how the shot was fired from among a crowd of whites who were following the officers and their captives. The police first claimed that Bullock had been shot by some person on the outside of the building. Failed Bullock's cont, however, proved clear that he had been shot by somebody near at hand. An investigation of the shooting was ordered by Assistant Superintendent Mills. COLORED MEN PROTEST The riots have caused a wave of protests from the colored people and in a number of these the police are blamed for not quelling the riots. Attorneys J. W. Parks and G. Edward Dickerson are representing a number of the colored men who were arrested by the wholesale. Mr. Dickerson roundly criticised the police for what he claimed was discrimination against the colored people. He publicly charged that the race riot was due to the pacific policy of Assistant Superintendent Mills, who, he said, failed to take proper protective measures when informed that a riot was imminent. Also he said that the police sent from the various station houses were inclined to side with the white men and that that winked at it when informed that the riot was imminent. "There would have been no riots had Mills sent men down with orders to clean up both white and colored men alike." said Attorney Dickerson. Mills admitted that Attorney Dickerson had told him of the riots, but said he had heard of the imminence of the disturbances before and had taken the proper precautions. COLORED MINISTERS PROTEST Five colored ministers, representing a large church membership visited City Hall yesterday in an effort to interview Mayor Smith. They were told that the Mayor was not in and after leaving a copy of a letter of protest they went to the office of the Director of 'Public Safety' and read him a copy of the letter they had left with Mayor Smith's secretary. It is as follows: "We the undersigned, represent the Methodist Ministers' Meeting of Philadelphia and Vienna. We represent large constituencies who reside in the zone of the race riot which seems now in progress. We have visited the homes of scores of these people and well informed concerning conditions, so apt to tap our驴 us or usua aq, fact that your police have not been able to protect our citizens from mob violence. We deplore the fact that Philadelphia gives the first answer to the noble statement of President Wilhelm Roth moth violence with such mockery. "We desire you to understand that we put the whole blame upon your incompetent police force. But for the sympathy of the police, their hooligan sap puma, do you quia flunquon would have been nothing more than a petry row, if that much. "Your police have for a long time winked at disorder, at the staining of their homes, and the attacking of their churches, in this very neighborhood divine warfare, turbed by white hoodlums and there has been no redress. In nearly every part of the city, decent, law-abiding Negroes have been set upon by irresponsible white hoodlums, their property damaged and destroyed, our police seemed powerless to protect. "We also call your attention to the fact that this riot was not started by Negroes; that the Negroes who were annoyed were of the orderly, law-obliging type, that your police arrest and the white mobhood round the street to do more damage. "We cannot help expressing to you further the sad mistake in the administration of your police power. In every community where there are Negroes, the presence of Negro police tends to put down race friction. We feel quite certain that if an equal number of white and colored police had been in the riot district it would have subsided in a very few minutes; but for your police, of putting police, with political practice in these districts and white police alone, there would not have been this disgrueful affair. "Further, your police disarmed only colored people and permitted whites to carry guns. This is the cause of this condition and the whole blame is on your own police force." Shortly after the delegation had left Director Wilson issued a statement in which he declared that citizens without discrimination must be protected and will be even to the necessity of detaining every member of the Bureau of Police to the trouble zone, and every person responsible for disorder will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. President Wilson's Proclamation Denouncing Lynching My fellow Countrymen: I take the liberty of addressing you upon a subject, which so vividly affects the honour of the nation and the very character and integrity of our institutions that I trust you will think me justified in speaking very plainly about it. I allude to the mob spirit which has recently here and there very frequently shown its head amongst us, not in any single region, but in many and widely separated parts of the country. There have been many lynchings, and every one of them has been a blow at the heart of order law and human justice. No man who really cares for her fame and honour and character, or who is truly loyal to her institutions, can justify mob action while the courts of justice are open and the governments of the States and the nation are ready and able to do their duty. We are at this very moment fighting lawless passion. Germany has outlawed herself among the nations because she has disregarded the sacred obligations of law and has made lynchers of her armies. "Lynchers emulate her disgraceful example. I for my part, an anxious in see every community in America rise above that level, with pride and a fixed resolution which no man or set of men can afford to despair. We proudly claim to be the champions of democracy. If we really are, in deed and in truth, let us see to it that we do not discredit our own. I say plainly that every American who takes part in the action of a mob or gives it any sort of countenance is no true son of this great Democracy, but its betrayer, and that more more to discredit her by that single disloyalty to her standards of law and or right than the words of her statesmen or the sacrifices of her heroic boys in the trenches can do to make suffering peoples believe her to be their saviour. How shall we commend democracy to the acceptance of other peoples, if we disgrace our own by prying that it is, after all, no protection to the week? Every man contributes to German lies about the United States what her most gifted, lions cannot, improve upon by the way of calumny. They can at least say that such things cannot happen in Germany except in times of revolution, when law is swept away. 1. therefore, very earnestly and solemnly beg, that the Governors of all the States, the law officers of every community, and, above all, the men and women of every community in the United States, all who severe America and wish to keep her name without stain or reproach, will cooperate,—not passively merely, but actively and waterfully,—to make an end of this disgraceful evil. It cannot live where the community does not commence it. (Continued on Page 5) WITH THE BOYS AT CAMP MEADE 808th Infantry Facing Peculiar Situation at "Y" Hut. Are Now Occupying a Tent--Regular Army Men Cause Trouble Camp, Mende, Md., July 31.—Colored draftsmen from various sections continue to pour into this place and there are now estimated to be about nine thousand here, more than at any one time before. A number of the Infantry boys are connected with the 808th Infantry; the new regiment recently formed here, but a number are in the Depot Brigade and the Engineers' Corps. There is not a single commissioned colored officer at the camp and in the Depot Brigade almost all of the non-commissioned officers are white. This, of course, makes things seem a little different from the time when the 808th Infantry and the 551st Artillery were here. The Infantry had all colored commissioned officers and in the Artillery all the non-commissioned officers were colored. There has been some talk throughout the camp of the forming of colored artillery regiment here, but nothing has been stated distinctly from the War Department. REGULAR MEN HERE. Recently a number of white regular army men have been stationed here and last week ninety colored non-commissioned officers and privates of the 24th infantry were sent here. These men, most of them non-with the various companies of the $88th infantry and are helping the commissioned men to get the rookies in shape. Some friction, it is said, arose between some of the white regular men and the colored drafteries last week, and resulted in disturbances in which honors were evenly divided. The colored boys were outnumbered on the first night and were defeated, but on the second night, with the aid of reinforcements, held a meeting to discuss affairs and as such as serious as was reported by some of the soldiers in Baltimore. Efforts on the part of the reporter to find out particularly concerning the fractures were fruitless, and no one was willing to be responsible for a statement further than to verify the fact that there had been some ruse troubling. Dr. Cabimass is said to have brought the affair to the attention of the authorities at the camp with the result that he was assured an investigation would be made. "Y 'SITATION' 'PECULAR'" The situation in the "Y" huts is peculiar and one would have to be there every day to study out its psychology. At B-38 where General Cabinass is the generalissimo, are, for the most part, the boys of the Depot Brigade. This hut, it will be remembered, was for the most part, the particular property of the boys of the 36th Infantry. At D-39, which is under the general direction of B. B. Church, white soldiers are largely in the majority. This seems to make very little difference as far as the white soldiers are concerned and Mr. Church, as well as his assistants are treated with every courtesy that could be expected from the soldiers they serve. It may also be stated that Lacey Flagg, one of the GOOD RESULTS ALREADY EVIDENT FROM CONFERENCE OF EDITORS President's Stand Against Lynching; Opportunity for Colored Nurses and Probable Recall of Col. Young Follow Urgent Appeals for Justice. --- Washington, D. C. July 29—Already there are numerous evidences that the recent conference of colored editors and leaders held in this city in June, which was called by Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, at the suggestion of the War Department and the Committee on Public Information, to consider the relations of the 12,000,000 Negroes in this country with the general government itself, and to discuss ways and means how each might cooperate most effectively in the work of winning the present world-wide war, is bearing fruit. Three results of the most significant character have been worked out within the past fortnight that fully justify the holding of the conference and other issues not less far-reaching are well on their way toward a satisfactory conclusion. President Wilson's Clean-cut Promotion Against Lifting The first in importance and human interest of the helpful results that may be said to have grown directly out of the recent conference of editors, and the cooperation of Negro leaders and friends of the Negro people, is the frank, positive and unequivocal declaration of the President of the United States against the mob spirit, which has been sent to the four corners of the earth by cable and through the newspapers of this country. President Wilson's firm stand for law and order ranks with the finest of the great state papers that have emanated from the White House, and it has electrified the entire country as it has seldom been thrilled before. It will be remembered by those familiar with the proceedings of the conference at the New Interior Department Building that the full force of the leaders who spoke was mobilized in application to the mob violence, practiced mainly colored people in various sections of the country, and that this lack of respect for the common rights of citizens was given as the most potent cause for the common rights of citizens was given as the most potent cause for the unrest among Negroes. This was the underlying reason for bringing the conference together from far-distant points. The proceedings of the Conference reached the President through the Committee on Public Information of which Mr. George Creel is chairman. The President's message is a whiskey-sone rebuke to ruthless violators of the law, who almost invariably think they will be immune from punishment by the courts or by an outraged public opinion. The colored people are jubilant over the timely and straightforward pronouncement of the President of the United States and that such an utterance from the highest authority in the land will cause a wave of patriotic en- sons of Rev. L. S. Flagg, is one of the hustling assistants of Mr. Church. Young Flagg is at present busily engaged in getting together an orchestra and has promised to have it that the Community Club in Baltimore as soon as it is organized. The 80th infantry is now stationed almost in front of the Mid-way station of the W. B. & A. For a "Y" but they have a large tent. There is a "Y" but almost within the space occupied by the colored boys, but for some reason they do not go there to be served. Just why this is cannot be earned with any degree of certainty. (Continued on Page 5) A BIG REAL ESTATE DEAL New York, July 22.—The largest real estate deal ever handled by a Negro real estate operator has resulted in the purchase of fifteen houses on 140th street, formerly occupied by white tenants, for Negro tenants. The fifteen houses are from 202 to 230 W. 140th street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues, and contain 1,500 living rooms. The buildings are each six stories high and contain five, and six-room apartments, with modern improvements. thumass among them and inspire a keeper impulse to assist in the many constructive war activities throughout the Republic can not be doubted. Colored Women Rejoice in Opportunity to be War Nurses. The second outstanding achievement growing out of the conference is the opening made for the employment of the large number of colored trained nurses who have patriotically registered their names with the American Red Cross Society for working among the colored troops on the field and in the base hospitals. The conference strongly urged that these skilled nurses be used at the earliest possible opportunity. According to an announcement made through the office of the Special Assistant to the Secretary of War last week, plans have been laid by the Surgeon-General of the Army to have colored nurses assigned to six of the base hospitals in this country where approximately 38,000 colored troops are stationed; namely: Camps Funston, Dodge, Grant, Taylor, Sherman, Dix, and with a practical certainty that these skilled agents of mercy will have a further opportunity for service among the colored soldiers overseas. With the constant increment of colored men in the army the number of women to be utilise must be correspondingly enlarged from time tIME, with a constantly expanding area of usefulness and spiritual influence. This signal triumph has heartened beyond measure the women of our land, who are called upon time of war to make the heaviest sacrifice and give their lives to those rife and not to serve when Alfred S. to do so. This is the second, be achievement that may be quickly credited to the recent conference and it will prove to be a vital factor in alleviating the unrest that has been breaking down the morale of Negro Americans. Colonel Young May Soon Be Called To Activate Duty The early recall to active duty of Colonel Charles Young, the idol of the young colored men of red blood and sturdy public spirit, also urged by the conference, is before the War Department. It has become known that the Secretary of War from the very beginning has sympathetically considered the whole matter of utilizing the valued military experience and services of Colonel Young, who, until his retirement some months ago, was actively identified with the Regular Army. The two concrete results here referred to, and the third one now "on the lap of the gods" would seem ample to justify the direct effort who accomplished time and business interest to crystallize requests into tangible realities and demonstrate the value of intensive cooperation with the National Government.

COMMUNITY CENTER NOW IN FULL BLAST Soldiers who visited the War Camp Community Club on Orchard street last Saturday night had a great time. Under the direction of the hostesses, a dance had been arranged and a number of Baltimore's best belles were invited to "make it pleasant" for the soldier boys. They were there and so were the soldiers, and it is difficult to say who had the better time—the girls or the soldiers. They danced as much as they wanted to and those who did not care to indulge in dancing, played cards, while still others were accustomed to be having the best one of their lives "looking on." The best one of their lives "looking on." did the party was over many of the soldier boys showed that gallantry that is expected of all well-bred men and made good company in the stroll homeward. Dancing and other amusements will be features of the Saturday evening entertainments and it is expected that the hostesses will have a hard job keeping the girls down to the required number as all of them are anxious to be "invited." That the community club is filling another need is evidenced by the fact that all of the fifty beds were occupied last week and some, of those who made application for accommodations had to be turned away because of the lack of room. All during the week soldiers and belles dropping in at the club and it is now practically certain that the club will be the headquarters for our soldier boys while they are in the city. The War Camp Community Service Club for Colored Soldiers and sailors located at 406 Orchard street, has arranged the following program of entertainments for visiting soldiers and sailors: Saturday, August 3rd, 1918. Dance at the Club. Sunday, August 4th, 1918. At 5 P. M. musical conducted by Dr. C. E. Stewart, Mrs. Virginia Quinners, solist. Saturday, August 5th, 1918. airmen at Dr. C. E. Park 5:00 P.

M. except the third Saturday. CAREY THEATRE RAISES PRICE "Owing to the increased cost in the production of pictures, the admission to the Carey Theatre will be 10 cents after July 29th." The above announcement appeared in the advertisement of the Carey Theatre in the Afro-American last week. The Carey is the last theatre up to raise its prices and as the pictures presented there are the best that can be obtained, there will hardly be any falling off in attendance because of the raise of our cents.

"Keeping the public informed is good business ethics" says the advertising firm. The Community shares in common the value of its business interest, its employees and the employees capital which circulates through channels making up the industrial and financial life of the municipality and they like for it in its chosen field to speak to them silently as well as in personal contact.

What use are we going to The Afro-American feels that it is treading on dangerous ground whenever it attempts to advise the ministers as to their duty to the community. Notwithstanding, it presumes to offer a little advice, with the hope that it will be taken in the spirit in which it is given. spirit in which we give. As a race we are passing through critical conditions—conditions we have never been called upon to face before. We are practically entering a new emancipation. The manner in which we conduct ourselves will mean much to us in the future. If we are found dependable and efficient, we will hold that which we have gained, otherwise we will not only lose all our gains but much of that we have held in the past. We cannot afford to work three or four days in the week and lay off two or three days to spend what we have earned. We not only waste that we have earned but the time in which we might have earned more. We cannot afford to give anything but our very best service in whatever sphere we find ourselves. We must measure us, not only to the best there is in us, but must try and make more of ourselves than we are, if such a thing is possible. things is possible. These things, it seems to us, ought to be emphasized from our pulpits constantly. It is very much to the interest of the church, if we choose to look at it in a selfish way, to have good substantial members who are ready and willing to make contributions of a substantial nature to assist the church, but it is better far than our people be made to understand that present conditions are not going to continue always, and when the crisis comes the weak and inefficient will be, as always, the first to go. The efficient workman is held as long as possible and if any favors are to be shown he receives them. and If any visitors are to do this line of helpfulness in urging their members to do their best under all conditions. The future is ours. What use are we going to make of it?

Now it becomes several of the British West Indes, and The lion shares his prey with the other animals—Aesop's Fables. Over in London, England, the Privy Council, corresponding roughly to our Supreme Court, handed down a very important decision last Monday affecting the claims of four parties, for 48,000,000 acres of land. These millions of acres constitute Matabeleland in British South Africa, and before 1880 were ruled by one black chiefian Lobengula, head of the Matabeles. Sometimes after 1880 British troops overthrew Lobengula and seized his lands, the British South Africa Company occupying the country for trading purposes. When the case came to court there was the Colonial Government, or the legislative council to put in its claim as well as the natives and the trading company. The high court of the British Empire decided against the three of them and awarded the millions of acres to—itself. This is possibly the best thing that could happen anyway. It is doubtful if the natives are capable of self-government and it is certain that the land is their property and not that of any white colonial government or trading company. Now it becomes a crown colony, like several of the British West Indies, and safe against exploitation. PHILADELPHIA RIOTS ory of the riots which Philadelphia is a simple one. Listen to Mr. McReal estate owner: Morgan said that he had eight hours where the trouble started and that six men sold to Negroes already. He compatible he always had to obtain his rent and said they were altogether vicious those houses to Negroes, and who perfect right to sell them because t he have given the tenants opportunity The story of the riots which Philadelphia experienced this last week is a simple one. Listen to Mr. Morgan, a white man and a real estate owner: "Mr. Morgan said that he had eight houses in the block where the trouble started and that six of them had been sold to Negroes already. He complained of the trouble he always had to obtain his rent from the whites, and said they were altogether vicious. "I sold those houses to Negroes, and what of it? I had a perfect right to sell them because they were mine. I have given the tenants opportunity time and again to buy and they didn't take the chance. The only trouble is that certain women who are trouble makers have attempted to run the whole block, and although they have decided to keep out the Negroes, they had one, Mrs. Giddings, in 2936 for more than a year. She took the house and paid the rent promptly, more than some white women do if they can get out of it." And listen to the statement of one of the white women who caused the trouble: "I paid the agent my rent on Friday," she said, "and the next day I got a notice to move. There are six or seven others of us who were in the same boat and we found out that Negroes were going to take our places. Some of us were born and brought up in this neighborhood and we didn't like to be put out for Negroes." Could anything be simpler; colored people with money and desiring to buy or rent homes; white real estate owner anxious to sell because he can get more money from colored than whites; and poor white tenants unable to buy homes, hardly able to pay rent and envious of the prosperity of colored people whohose war incomes are the foundation of their rapid rise. Given these conditions and you have the three day's rioting in Philadelphia. Three are killed a hundred injured and homes wrecked. Of course there is the usual thing noted of all race riots: colored folk disarmed by police and white folk allowed to carry weapons openly. Police protecting and assisting whites and attacking and killing colored. From any angle the rioting of the whites are indefensible. President Wilson puts it plainly when he said in his recent proclamation: "Every American who takes part in the action of a mob or gives it any sort of countenance is no true son of this great democracy." son of this great colleague. Let us see what steps Philadelphia or the State or national governments will take to punish these enemies of democracy. Sixteen years ago when Jack Johnson was a busher and Joe Gans and Young Peter Jackson were the "class," Sam Langford began to draw attention to himself by knocking out men much heavier than he. Last Tuesday, Sam took on a white hope in Shibe Park, Philadelphia and acquitted himself creditably. All of which goes to show what taking care of yourself will do. A female farm hand attired in hickory shirt and regular overalls attracted attention in Breeze, Illinois, the other day by driving a load of wheat thru town. This lass of sixteen summers cannot only drive a farm team but drive a plow or a harrow or a binder, not to mention other light farm jobs. She weighs 200 pounds.—Poor, weak womanhood! weights 200 pounds. Smuggling whiskey into Delaware and the District of Columbia offers real excitement these days. Four men driving an auto truck were captured near Wilmington, Delaware last week Ostensibly they were hauling milk, but upon investigation the milk cans yielded 31 quarts of whiskey. At police headquarters they confessed they were on their way to a campmeeting. They have not as yet confessed the names of the white They have not as yet contressed the names of the white men who financed the scheme. A DISGRACE TO MARYLAND Unofficial reports show that between eighty and ninety, that is 25 per cent. of the 356 men sent to the Radio School at Howard University from Baltimore and parts of Maryland, cannot read and write. These men are not from the South, where illiteracy is the rule, but from our own State, Maryland.

COLORED SOLDIERS—OUT Maryland has always felt nersel apart from the Southern states, but this incident shows that the compulsory education law is a myth and that county officials are lax in applying state regulations. This group of eighty or ninety men clearly could not learn Radio work without knowing how to read and write. They were put to work scrubbing the University buildings, and later will be transferred to Camp Meade. Thus endeth a dark chapter in the history of Maryland education. American troops down in Haiti are still killing the natives. Twenty were killed, several wounded and others captured in a fight with Marines last week—just after Haiti declared war on Germany. COLORED SOLDIERS-OUR FIRST HALF MILLION "Berlin or bust" is the slogan of the American Army and incidents of the training of the first half million men, who are going to get the Kaiser, are told in a volume just off the press by Captain of the 343rd Field Artillery stationed at Camp Dix, N. J. Writing of colored soldiers, Captain X says: "Their emotions are as transient as children's, the lesser educated of our Negro soldiers, while their comrades who have gone to public schools and higher are extremely dignified, filled with ambition, reliable, wholly trust worthy and eager to do their part for America." One records these qualities for the surface judgment of a Negro regiment is grossly unfair. Popularly it is supposed to be a gathering of likable but wholly irresponsible children of the Southland, who invariably spend their time off drill with crisps, clog dancing, wild women and razors. That's a libel. For I know in my own battery there were more men studying how to become non-commissioned officers than there were men for whom life was one long "moon air rug." "Shoes spick and span, uniforms neat, slick and nutty—that's the Negro soldier. He's there. He'll write his reputation big in France. He's working like a dend. He has a big pride in his Division—the 92nd, composed entirely of Negro soldiers. Listen to a big luck corporal there." "Listen now, all you men" he is saying to his squad. "You all see my chevroons there," and he taps the corporal's stripes on his sleeve. "You men gotta know what them chevroons mean. They mean I was picked by the President to be corporal in his army. That the whole power," expressively gesturing, "of the United States is now behind me, when I say to you all, Left F-haue." And they face. There is a large number of marching songs in vogue while the troops are hiking, but here are the words of one that is a general favorite: "The belts of hell go tingling-a-ling O death where is thy stinging-a-ling O tingling-a-ling, the stinging-a-ling ling for me." "If you would intimately know the Negro you must be with him, hour after hour. The solitious white-coated man, who waits upon you in a dining car, he is not representative. Nor is the eager 'bell hop' who answers your hotel ring, "Jee Water, Boss?" Nor is the shiftless driver of a team of mules. If you would understand the Negro, you must meet him in the composite. And it is in the National Army that you meet him in the composite. You find the dining car waiters, the bell hops, the cooks, the gangsters, the teachers, the high school graduate, the Negro College man, the stenographer, the typist, the young Negro who left a good job in the bank to answer the nation's call. You find an abundance of trained chauffeurs, a number of men skilled in the trades and Allah be praised, ample who understand horses and the care of them. An Artillery captain is always on the alert for that. And as you study your men, you get a new idea of the Negro race. You appreciate its fight and admire its strength. In the high school these men have fought their way up in life; that decent jobs have been theirs; and there is something far more to them than "jazz bands," razors and dice." According to . army regulations, books by officers or enlisted men must be published anonymously. The author of this book, Captain-X is very probably Capt. Edw. Fox of the 340 Field Artillery, in charge of colored men. It has been the custom to recite what colored people may expect from the war, but from Captain X appraisal of colored soldiers it is worth THE AFRO AMERICAN ing of the whites are indefen- git plainly when he said in his american who takes part in the sort of countenance no true Philadelphia or the State or nation- fish these enemies of democracy.

A few more will do no harm. To form an organization of any number of given parts they must be collected and systematically arranged. We can never form an aggregate by collecting only any number of its components. Neither can we form an union of Methodism by holding separate meetings. No, not with the most intelligent heads of our greatest churchmen. Kindly let me make a suggestion. To my mind, if such sages as Bishop J. Albert Johnson or the venerable Harold Steeplecau of the A. M. E. Church, or Rev. Ernest Lyon D. D., of the M. E. B., Bishop Caldwell of the A. M. E. Z. were to call the heads of all Methodism with a proper representation of the lathy, together in one great place, I feel that something could be done. These gentlemen, or some others, would bring our heads to we have plenty to choose from, could affect great good towards organic union. I, for one, feel that the thing so long sought would be reached. Then denominations shall be shrouded in the gloom of the past delightfully upon the pages of history delightfully upon the pages of history of Methodism. May God speed the day when we can rejoice in a great bond of Methodists. Now, we, the people of Latimore are rejoicing over annexation, but it is good, but we will rejoice because we will God's kingdom to come. REV. ROY B. MOHN. D. D. President C. M. P. Church. NOTICE TO BARBERS A Word to my Tonsorial Brothers of Baltimore City. Having read the Barber's Journal for the past five years I find it very helpful in giving much torsional information from all over the country and if more of our barbers would read it they would really know what is going on to their interest. There are two popular shaving emporiums closing evenings at 8 o'clock, and both on Druid Hill avenue. They not only do justice to themselves but to their able assistants in giving them more daylight time—just what the government wants. They close their war times, thereby demonstrating your patriotic spirit and protecting your economically. By closing one hour you save a great deal in fuel and light annually. White men close their business, the colored men close at $? I have since April 1st and my business has improved wonderfully. Everyone has shorter hours now and are earning more money. Why not the barbers? Our profession is just as important as the job of the public and this no one can deny. A hint to the wise is sufficient. C. & P. Phone: Mt. Vernon 3459-J.

LONGGREEN WEEKLY VIEWS AND COMMENTS REV. WILLIAM H: WEAVER, D. D., Contributing Editor STATE FOOD ADMINISTRATOR Our people here in Baltimore are coming into their own by the recognition which is being given to some of our efficient men. Only recently Attorney C. C. Fitzgerald has been appointed by the Department of Food Administration as the Maryland representative for colored people in the work of that department as it may pertain and relate to the colored people of Maryland. We are not acquainted with the duties of the office, nor with the requirements exacted of the man filling the office, but from what we know of Mr. Fitzgerald as to general qualifications and special fitness, we have no hesitation in expressing it as our opinion that he will discharge the duties of his position to the satisfaction of all concerned and in a manner that will reflect upon himself and his people and do honor to the appointing power. The Afro-American and its staff offers to Attorney Fitzgerald congratulations wishes for him the greatest success in his work as State Food Administrator. CITY UPHELD IN ANTEXATION Not only must it be gratifying to the City Authorities to know that the Court of Appeals has decided that the Action taken by the last session of the Maryland Legislature to Annex certain zones of Baltimore and Anne Arundel Counties to Baltimore City, was valid, and therefore this territory will be added to the City, but it is doubtless equally pleasing to every Baltimore and Maryland who would see our chief city have without hindrance every opportunity and advantage to grow and develop into the great municipality in the state. As has been pointed out from time to time by those who were found and most active in securing the Legislation now declared by the Court of Appeals in a unanimous decision I be valid much is to be gained by the City of Baltimore by this extension. An increase in area. Large addition to the city's population. Giving it an important place among the leading cities of the country and making it one of the largest manufacturing centers. The opportunity to improve sanitary conditions by the extension of the swerage system and water supply. Increased and better protection afforded to suburban residents by the extension of the police and fire systems. Not only giving us a larger, greater and better city, but also adding no little to the State's wealth. In view of these conditions and managements it is good ground for the building which it is reported the views of the Court's decision occasioned at the City Hall, and among those who had worked so enthusiastically and unintentionally for annexation. And it is indeed a matter over which we DR. J. R. L. DIGGS COMES TO DEFENSE OF DUBOIS Some honest men, as well as some dishonest ones are often misjudged, because misunderstands. This is unfortunate. But it is more than bad fortune when a sane and able representative of the people of whatever race is misrepresented regardless of the motive for the criticism. these pleas, and we we the truths on with lea and the oppositie the format Dr. DuBois does not know of the preparation of this article, or of our views on his Crisis editorial in the July number. The faces are here given for a moment. We regard the advice as given at a time when the many questions arising out of the war, and demanding immediate settlement, must take precedence; and all other matters must be secondary in the order of treatment only. Special interests are required, and the money, homes and our lives are all freely offered. These are superior to all constitutional rights, and yet we surrender them for the safety of our native land. Then why not accept the truce suggested by the distillate of the House of Commons would at least be logical; for Dr. DuBois can no more surrender his convictions on human rights than the most honest, and at the same time the most confident, self-esteemed lover of the race, and critic. The race is the most important him and neither will be disappointed when he acts; for in every situation you will find him a real man. Some of us have seen him under fire in action, but never saw him falter. In 1905, when the "Least resistance policy" was dominant; when disfrenchement, the "fim-crowisim" and when demagogues in the army, when demagogues were rewards, with highest political honors for the most infernal of infernal inventions against colored people, the most rabid, like Tillman, Please and Vardaman being elected to office. In short, when the nation was in the army, against our race as a sure political asset worth 100 per cent among the ignorant white voters of all Southern states, when our few represent lives in the army, against our congress with out a protest from the nation through any department of the great national government, it was DuBois, Trotter et al, who dared to Iave the storm of criticism and envy and enemies both opposing him and without the race. (see great days, July 15-25, 1905.) The Niagara Movement was inaugurated by a few men who were imbued with a spirit of manliness that will In the vicinity of Niagara Falls, this epoch-making organization was formed, an address was issued to a guilty nation where the base wrongs of the people in open violation of the national constitution, and all principles of honor. 'It was couched in 3-classic language, widely read. It proved to be a firebrand among the enemies of democracy.' It is now the cry of the nation for true democracy, a re-echo of the call to the American conscience issued thirteen years ago. DuBois penned those famous essays with but a few minor changes; for they expressed our own thoughts and feelings. Let us all read APPEALS. all should rejoice that now the way seems clear, without opposition, for our dear old Baltimore to grow, on pand and develop as rapidly as she Mayor Preston, Mr. Field—the Greater Baltimore Committee and all others active in the movement of Annexation deserve our commendation and should have our heartiest congratulations over the outcome of their earnest efforts and worthy endeavors in our city's behalf. SUCCESS IN A WORTHY UNDERTAKING Mr. Bernard W. Webb and Mr. Wm. L. Wilson, two of our young citizens who take deep interest in all athletics have succeeded, after five years effort, in securing permission to have public athletic sports in Drud Hill Park at the same location of the Colored Children's Play-grounds, free to colored men and boys. They were able to secure this through the good offices of the Public Athletic League which will furnish free boys and boys all the necessary paraphenalia. Messrs. Webb and Wilson are the duly appointed directors of the sports and have charge of what goes on at the ground at the times they are used for these purposes. These young men are indeed deserving of commendation for their active interest in athletics, especially as they pertain to our men and boys generally, and it is to be hoped that they will have great encouragement in their work as directors, by the large attendance of men and boys generally, and it is to be hoped that they will have great encouragement in their large attendance of boys at the grounds, and the good use they will make of the paraphenalia which the directors have been able to secure for them without cost. Messrs. Webb and Wilson are young men who are always ready to do their bit in everything they can to promote the welfare and further the interest of their people. They have along with their other activities volunteered their services to look after the athletic stunts, etc. and arrange exhibitions that will from time to time be pulled off at the War Camp Community Service Club for Colored Soldiers and Sailors for the entertainment and of soldiers and soldiers who make use of the splendid advantages that the club offers them for rest, recreation, comfort, pleasure etc, when they are on leave from the camps and are visiting Baltimore. It is a good and noble thing—Indeed it is the highest, best and truest use one can make of his gifts and power. "enjoy them not in selfish service," but in any and every service that will help that will be of good to others. There are many lines and ways open to others who like Messrs. Webb and Wilson may give themselves to doing things that will brighten the lives and cheer the hearts of /others. those pleas again, absorb their spirit and we will not be discouraged; for the truths we formulated are much more important than the pilled powers. That movement started the tide in the opposite direction. It resulted in the formation of the National Association and secured the aid and membership of such brilliant lawyers as William B. Stacy, Sir Pillibury and such men as the author of the New York Evening Post, Prof. Spingarn, Miss Owington, and many others of like note. Through its influence the inflection of Great Crusade in Southern state constitutions was annulled by the Supreme Court, the notorious segregation enactments suffered the same fate and the end is not yet. Many of the critics of Dr. DuBois are honest, well-meaning people. We know them of them. We know them of the member that he is a veteran defender of our manhood rights and that he was at it before many of them were either volunteers or drastifies in this royal army of real democracy. Dr. DuBois should not be forgotten in his course. His life of active service of more than 20 years is history. We are a part of the nation, and we should have a ripe scholar like the editor of the Crisis to represent us in the Intelligence Bureau of the Government, for we may rest assured that our students will not be neglected. We feel, personally that the nation has a right to call for his services in this hour of need. The Government seems determined to use representatives of our very best type, and we want our students to hinder the program. Messrs. Scott, Haynes and DuBois are honorable and able representatives of the best types of American citizens and the nation needs them at all. It is proper to ask them to attend our service,ors himself in being thus employed. The writer has longed for the day when the American would call to service the scholarly men of the race longing for service. Not many like Greener and Langston have been called. Let us note this noble departure of the Wilson administration. Honor where should we, though, why should a scholarly Presidency be offered to officers who are wise enough to do as Mr. Baker has done? Get the best class of men to represent us, units the strength the administration? This will strengthen the administration and the results will justify the course. When we look upon the Crisis editorial as mere prudential advice or otherwise, in view of present conditions, this fiery storm of criticism seems not at all wise. Were it even possible to delay the period of the war, its wisdom might be lost. In his judgment the President now fit to appoint the able Secretary of the Treasury as Director General of our transportation system. He seems equal to the task. Surely Dr. DuBois can edit the Crisis and serve the nation. The President of Cornell and Johns Hopkins each served in foreign countries and served in the home. No one will edit the Crisis as Dr. DuBois does. It will suffer for years from the loss, should we be forced to bear it. He is the Chief of the Magazine. Let him control it, if the national authorities not object. He, and no one else, at present, can meet the demands. We object to any meeting at this time, and the Edinburgh will wrong us if he should resign matters rest or submit the letter to the various branches to settlement by vote of all members. Either course will avoid serious error and severe criticisms. Let's say once for all that we know both Trotter and DuBois are fully convinced that both are loyal to our race, as true as steel. They differ on minor matters but they are both on our side. In great fight for human liberty. Neither is a traitor nor can they be; for they are not thus Elementary prudence forbids attacks on our prominent men for trivial reasons, such as are true in our crucade. Let us conserve our strength for coming struggles and thunderbolts for a greater enemy. *PS. P. I.

EAR D STREET --- -Margaret Black's Corner- FEIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1918 Make Them from Sound Parts of Windfalls, Wormy, Brushed Apples, Pears, Plums. Washington, July 13—No tree fruits should be allowed to go to waste when it is so simple a matter to put up a gallon or two of fruit butters which go well with cereals and are particularly useful as a spread for bread. Only fruit of good quality should be used, but size is not important. The sound part of a brushed or injured apple makes a good product. How to Make Apple Butter With Cider. Almost all varieties of apples will make good apple butter, but those of distinctive flavor and of good cooking quality are most satisfactory. Overripe apples are not desirable, but sweet, apples sometimes are mixed with the cider. Her recipe for cider apple butter. Five gallons of fresh sweet cider down to two and one-half gallons. Prepare five gallons of peeled and sliced apples. Either add these apples raw to the boiled cider and cook down, or first make them into apple sauce and then add to the cider and cook to the right consistency. The butter should be cooked until apple pulp and cider do not separate. Sugar is not absolutely necessary. When sugar is plentiful a pound of white or brown sugar per gallon of apple butter is the ordinary proportion. The sugar is added after the cooking is about two-thirds done. As the product is spiced, various sims such as cane or sorghum or muescral sugar, can be used instead of sugar. If on text the new flavor proved satisfactory to the particular home. Apple butter is spiced according to personal taste. A half teaspoonful each of ground cinnamon, cloves and allspice per gallon is a common mixture. The spices are stirred in when the cooking is finished. Apple Butter Without C12ar Good apple butter is often made without the use of cider. Enough water is added to the peeled and sliced apples to make a thin apple sauce, and this is allowed to cook very slowly, or sinner, over a low fire for three or four hours. It must be stirred often to prevent burning. Sugar or syrup, a pound to a gallon of butter, may be added when the product is two-thirds done. The sugar that settles at the bottom of New Orleans molasses is excellent for this purpose. Sugar to taste. Packing Apple Butter Steam glass or stone jars or crocks for about 15 minutes on a false bottom in a boiler. Prepare apple butter, place boiling hot into the hot jars, place tops on and seal air-light, set on false bottom in the boiler, add a little water, put cover on boiler, to hold in the steam, count time from when the steam starts to escape steam small jars for 5 minutes, haltigation for 19 minutes, and larger containers for 15 minutes. Remove jars and set out to cool. Do not disturb until product is to be used. It is not fit tightly place waxed or oiled paper under it to make a tight fit before sterilizing the jar. Fruit butter can be sealed by a layer of paraffin, but at present this is quite expensive. Pear Butter Pear, plum and peach butters are made without cider. The pears should be ripe enough to cook up well and after being peeled, cored and sliced are put into a preserving kettle with a little water and cooked slowly until soft. The sugar is then added, one cup to one quart of sliced pears, and cooking is continued very slowly, with frequent stirring, for 1 1-2 to 2 hours. Various siropes can be substituted in whole or in part for sugar. The butter should then be smooth and as thick as thick apple sauce. A little Ice cream and ginger and cinnamon, other spices to taste, should be well stirred into the hot butter. Pack while hot in hot, sterilized containers and sterilize in steam as mentioned for apple butter. Plum Butter Wash the plums and place them in a preserving kettle with water enough barely to cover, and cook until soft. Then put them through a coilender or course wire sieve to remove the seeds and skins, and to each measure of pulp add three-fourths of sugar and cook slowly with frequent stirring until the butter is as thick as desired. Various sirups can be substituted in whole or in part. The sirup that makes a fairly sweet product, and if a more tart butter is desired the amount of sugar should be reduced. Cinnamon, ginger and may be added according to Tom butter should be packed sterilized furs or glasses and sterilized like apple butter. loves paste. hold the Peach Butter Put the peaches in a wire basket and dip in boiling water a few seconds until the skin slips—tst by raising peaches out of water and rubbing the skin with fingers, then dip into cold water and peel and pit the fruit. Well-ripened free-stone varieties are best. Mash it pulp and cook in its own juice without adding water. If it is rather coarse put in through a colander of coarse wire sieve to make a butter of fine texture. To each measure of pulp add one-half measure of sugar and cook slowly and stir frequently. Various sirups can substituted in whole or in part for flour. The meats of several pits may be cooked either whole or sliced in the gallon of butter. While still hot in sterilized jars or glasses with hot-fitting tops and sterilize like apples. Issued by U. S. Department of Agriculture, July 13, 1918. The rush of summer work occupies our time to such a great extent that we are often so tired when night comes that we are not fit for anything but the bed, and anything that will save us a little time and energy is welcome. We must patch and darn as well as we can, and a work basket well stocked with everything that one can possibly require is a blessing as well as a great help. The useful little wicker work baskets on stands that are fitted with trays and a handle, and are light to carry about are the best to have. If you are not lucky enough to have one perhaps you can pick up one at a side for a small sum. Or better still look around an auction room. You can line it yourself, putting in pockets round the sides to keep sewing cottons, tapes, etc., in their proper place. The work itself you can keep in the center of the basket. Two pair of scissors is a necessity one long pair for cutting out, and one small pair for cutting threads and unpicking. A good silver thimble is more to be desired than the ordinary metal one as it wears twice as long. A good supply of needles is also a necessity. An assortment of various sizes from 5 to 12, besides needles for knitting needles should be kept handy in a home-made needle case if you do not have a bought one with all these accessories. In one of the pockets on the side can be kept on hand about four reels of white cotton and two reels of black cotton, and a few skins of white embroidery cotton. In another pocket can be kept two spools each of black and white silk for button holes, and 50 yard spool of silk to match your different colored dresses, for when they should need mending or making over, as I suppose most folks have experienced the difficulty of matching old goods when you wanted to mend or make over. Then there is the need to mend or make over you prefer, and darning cotton in black, white and gray for the stockings that will always have a hole in them when you least expect it. The ball or skein of white crochet cotton for fancy stitches on the children's clothes and the ball or skein of red marking cotton for marking purposes. Do not forget the bodkins for running tapes of various sizes. There should be three sizes of these. You can buy a set of metal ones at the ten cent store for ten cents the card of three, small, medium, and large. A stillette for making eyeclets, a box or paper of mixed pins, tape in different sizes, a tape measure, and a number of assorted pearl and linen buttons, knobs and eyes and snappers necessary for buttons. Keep buttons and hooks and eyes in thin glass bottles with screw tops or good enkuls, so as to keep from losing them as nothing is so provoking as to not be able to find the button you want when you know that you have mishit it or lost it by carolessness, and not be able to match it no matter how hard you try. Do not keep your machine cotton and needles that belong to your sewing machine in your work-basket. They belong in your machine drawers, and only cause confusion if kept in the basket. It looks like a lot of trouble and bother to make up a basket like the above, but you will find it better than to have to lose a half a day to run all over town to match a button or a piece of goods with a certain kind of thread or silk and then come home all tired and cross and woutorn and not have what you want either. Days that you do your shopping always pay a visit to the notion counter, as there are always notions of different kinds on sale and your basket can be kept stocked at very little cost and bother. For the sum of two dollars everything needed for the basket can be bought at a ten cent store. I never go in a dry-grooms store without I visit the notion counter before I leave. In that way I keep my basket well stocked and always have on hand threads, needles of various kinds, tapes, buttons, hooks and eyes, snappers, and murray ribbons for beading. Often the scrap basket in a store will contain a couple of yards of ribbon that can be picked up for about three or four cents when it would cost you fifteen or twenty cents if bought directly from the piece. You do not need it you think, but it comes in very handy if you have children or if you want to make a small gift. Try it and see. Notice to Hairdressers and Dealers in Mine, C. J.

Brining is one of the oldest and easiest methods of saving garden products, but since the development of improved canning methods very little use has been made of this means of preservation. This summer every housewife should know the possibilities of bringing, for delayed deliveries on jars or bad weather for drying may otherwise mean the loss of many pounds of perishable products. A brine made in the proportion of two pounds of salt to one gallon of water, a scaled crock or bucket, a cloth, a plate or board, and a weight complete the brining equipment. For best results vegetables should be blanched for five minutes before brining. The product is put in the container and the brine added. Then the cloth is put over the top and the board or plate weighted down on it to hold the solid material below the surface of the liquid. The brine is strong enough to net as a preservative without causing any change in the food. Vegetables preserved in this way may be brought back later by soaking a few hours in fresh water.

There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quinlade is a highly medicated poudre that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a mastache of long hair. Made is the invention of an export chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting; Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstreet or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mail them to you.
