SNOWDEN CASE GOES TO UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT 351st FIELD ARTILLERY AT CAMP MEADE NEXT WEEK
First Separate Co., with Other Troops of 92nd and 93rd Division Excluded From "Y" Building
Men Are Delighted with Idea of Being Welcomed Home. Hold A Farewell Dinner At Camp
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
Practically all of the 92nd and 234th divisions were at Camp Upton, New York, last Monday, with a prospect of staying there a day or two before the 256th, 351st, 372nd, 392nd and parts of the 368th are together, and probably for the first time, these troops are united again after being brigaded with the French fighters in France.
Such a large number of colored troops spoddily overran the colored area for only 200 and began to use the white building which accommodates 1290. Following the complaint of white soldiers who have never seen overseas duty, the commander of the camp issued notice that bereather the colored troops will stay out of the white "Y" as the white soldiers do not wish to entertain their families were colored in line of the First Separation Company immediately sent Chapula Arrangting S. Dela to the lady director in charge of the white "Y" she was very kind and said that she was very glad to have the colored men to the they had always acted as gentlemen of the area remarked to a representative of the Afro-Americans that they did not dawn upon us in France while the fighting was going on. Another said "These men way to us; they were seized as gentlemen at home while we were living like bad in France." FAREWELL DINNER SUNDAY.
Sunday the Baltimore boys were given a farewell dinner by Major Johnson, commander of the 3rd Batallion. The menu consisted of chicken soup, chicken, sweet potato, tomatoes, potatoes, mince pork, cabbage, cake day 1, that there is little to add to the behaviour of our boys overseas. I wish only to state that we have done our duty as soldiers of the United States array and the only reward we expect is that we be treated as men who know that which is expected of them.
"The time of arrival of the company in Baltimore cannot at this time be satisfied but you will be notified by telegram of our expected visitors. Visitors are allowed at Camp Union at all times and we would be delighted to have anyone from Railroad to call, although our stay at camp is only a matter of a day of war.

NEWPORT NEWS ISA'LITTLE HELL
Navy as Bad as Army in Enslaving men--Baltimorean With Two Babies and Dependent Wife Unable to Get Discharge.
That the navy is just as bad as the army in holding men in the camp at Newport News and refusing discharges is made public today started a bloody, whose dependent wife is a home on Baker street, with two babies, the oldest of which is two years.
This sailor, whose name is withheld for obvious reasons, was drafted but fail, and following the slaughter of the militias lied papers for discharge December 10th. Not only have all applications for discharge been refused, but he has not been allowed a torture to visit his wife and family.
A sentent to the Afro-American results.
"I am a sailor who was called into the navy by the draft last fall, which secured 1,000 men for stewardage regiment to coil transport to the islands Navy. Base for training which we received under the most brutal drill masters and commanders, who taught us to fear any white man in the maven even if he had no need to be trained and had no task or command we had to obey everything he said and told us to do. We were cursed at just like dogs and they did their best to break down the spirit of the American Negro in the face of white man, but that is impossible.
"We were trained thirty-seven days at the Base and then sent over to Newport News to coal ships. The armistice was signed before we left the naval base, and we were told that it was necessary for us to coal from France. As far as us bringing the soldiers home we were perfectly willing to work, but just think, when we were brought here the colored stewedores were laid off and we filled their places. Ever since we have been here the commanding officer with such remarks is 'Come on boys and let's get this ship loaded, you will all be discharged in a few days.' We have been told this ever since we left the naval base. When the navy discharged 20,000 the commanding officer posted which read 'no firemen, electricians or wireless men would be turned loose until further notice. This statement did not bear any number which certified that it had been issued from Washington. All the men who discharged there are posted discharge. There are quite a few Baltimore boys here and they are anxious to get back home. But what is the use or applying for a discharge. I have a family living at 1711 Baker Street, Baltimore signed by the doctor, landlord and some of my wife's sisters, stating that my wife was not able to help herself and needed my support.

Governor Asked to Appoint Negroes on School Boards and Commissions.
Columbia, S. C., Feb. 18—Colored citizens here are behind a movement to support the Republican party or "any other political organization that will give us the rights to which we are entitled." The decision was agreed upon here at a meeting of leading men from all over the State, Bishop W. D. Chappelle being a conspicuous figure therein. Bishop Chappelle wrote that the Republican would create a large number of colored men to qualify as voters so that they could hold the balance of power between rival Democratic factions, and the resolutions adopted, though they pledged support to the Republicans, left such a loophole.
Committees were appointed, one to wait on Governor Cooper and one to that Negroes group and another to the Railroad Commission, to urge that the race be given better accommodations on the railroads.

Washington, February 18 - Leading white suffragists are willing, it appears, to sacrifice colored women if they can secure the one vote needed in the Senate to pass an amendment to the federal constitution permitting women to vote.
Some Southern Senators have扶桑 support for an amendment, arguing that colored women would be allowed to vote thereby. Others have asserted that the disfranchising laws in the South prohibiting Negro men from voting would also exclude women.
Senator Pollock, of South Carolina, who voted for the suffrage amendment resolution last week, believes that the educational and property qualifications required of colored men in his State would at so apply to colored women.
A report from South Carolina stating that colored women there intended to vote when women are enfranchised caused a flutter of excitement among the opponents of Negro suffrage.
Miss Alice Paul and other militant suffragists do not believe the report, however.
"Negro men cannot vote in South Carolina," she says, "and therefore colored women could not if women were permitted to vote in the white women of South Carolina but have heard of no, activity among the colored women."
No Klu-Klux Klan In Pittsburgh
Rumor that work of South ern Ruffians Has Extended North Denied.
Special to the Afro-American Pittsburgh, Pa. Feb. 19.—Rumors spread abroad through the Associated Press that the Ku Klux Klan of Pittsburgh had extended its field toward Pittsburgh and was terrorizing local citizens were denied here today.
R. R. Vann, editor of the COURIER, sent the following statement to the Afro-American today. "Investigation has proven nothing, evidently the work of ignorant huns." Associated Press sent out the following last Saturday.
A self-styled Ku Klux Klan is spreading a reign of terror among the Negro residents of the East Liberty section of Pittsburgh. Glaring notices warning colored men and women "to be careful and stay in their place" have been in the district and Negro churches in the district and homes of many Negro residents. Some Negro fears for their lives and have not ventured out of their homes at night since the notices began to appear. Prominent Negro citizens have been warned that the outrages committed in Iraq Kentucky against colored people be depliant here unless they "watch their sten."
Paris, France, February 14—Article 19 of the Constitution of the League of Nations as given to the press today deals with the disposal of colonies in Africa, which recently belonged to Germany. "The details will be worked out later, but the text of the article will divide Africa among European nations for the sake of administration and control and that these colonies will be held in trust by Europeans, who will render annual reports to the Executive Council of the League of Nations. "The text of Article 19 reads: "To those colonies and territories which, as a consequence of the late war, have ceased to be under the sovereignty of the states which formerly governed them and which are inhibited by peoples not yet able to stand by themselves under the surrenance conditions, the state has been able to build the principle that the wellbeing and development of such peoples form a sacred trust of civilization and that securities for the performance of this trust should be embodied in the constitution of the league. The best method of giving practical effort to this principle is that the tutelage of such peoples should be entrusted to advanced nations who, by reason of their resources, their experience or their地理位置, can host undertake this responsibility and that this tutelage should be exercised by them and mandatories on behalf of the leaders."
"The character of the mandate must differ according to the stage of the development of the people the geographical situation of the territory, its economic conditions, and other similar circumstances. Certain communities, formerly below the age of independence, have reached a stage of development where their existence as independent nations can be provisionally recognized to the rendering of administrative advice and assistance by a mandatory power until such times as they are able to stand alone. The wishes of these communities must be a principal element in the selection of the mandatory power. "Other peoples, especially those of Central Africa, are at such a stage that the mandatory must be responsible for the administration of the territory subject to conditions which will guarantee freedom of conscience or religion, subject only to the maintenance of public order and prohibition.

Thcusands of People Line the Streets and Cheer Returning Heroes.
New York, February 19—With a spontaneous and vociferous greeting from tens of thousands of men, women and children of all races, and all stations of life, the 39th Regiment (Regiment of the New York National Guard) paraded Monday.
The news of their valiant deeds in France had long preceded their return to this country last week, and all of cosopolitan New York was anxious to do honor to the models for mercurious service, had the distinction of being the first American unit to reach the Rhine and was the first of New York's troops to be welcomed home.
The parade started at 23rd Street and Fifth Avenue and thousands of people were lined along the broad avenue to cheer the brave troops as they passed toward Harlem. At 60th street was the officer's reviewing stand, where sat Governor Smith, Governor Whiteman, and signed the act raising the regiment; Emmet Scott, special assistant to Secretary of War Baker; William Randolph Hearst, chairman of Mayor Hyland's reception committee; Mrs. Vincent Astor, and other notables, brave and popular commander of the regiment, lead the troopers and shared with them the plaudits of the multitude.

Annapolis, Md., Feb. 19.—With the signing of a writ of certiorand and habeas corpus in his cell on Thursday afternoon, John Snowden, condemned to be hanged on February 28th for the murder of Lottie Brandon, white, gave his consent to have filed an appeal in his case to the Supreme Court of the United States in Washington, D. C.
Sherif Bollis was taken off his feet when approached by Attorney Nicholas Green, accompanied by Messrs. Robt. L. Wallace, Wm. Jones and R. E. Halt of the same city, and members of the Monumental Lodge of Ellis, who asked for permission to present the writs to Snowden for his signature.
Jerry Smith, white, the sheriff's adjourn, and States Attorney Nicholas Green at first refused on the ground that Snowden knew nothing of the proposed appeal. They further objected that the Mr. Pondleton was not authorized by the proposed case had cost the state enough money without going into further legal proceedings.
Later they consented to have Lawyer Smith read the documents to Snowden, and leave it to him as to whether or not he would sign. Smith took both writs to the cell condemned man and read them over slowly to him word by word.
At the conclusion of the reading, Snowden signified his intention to sign the papers, if Basil, his death watch, and Rev. Benjamin Holt, spiritual adviser, so counseled. Following their advice he signed the papers in a shaky hand, and sent them back to Attorney Pondleton, who was waiting in the doorway of the FRIENDSHIP CENTER SURPRISE
Altho it has been known for some time that Attorney Pendleton had under consideration the illness of an appeal to the Supreme Court, the move on Thursday took the friends of Snowden who have been working along other lines completely by surprise. They had expended their on the case, the court, and they had not given up hopes of moving the Governor to commute the sentence to life imprisonment.
CERTIORARI LITTLE USED
While the writ of *cortiorari* corpus is frequently employed in court procedure, the writ of *cortiorari* is not used on the day. Several prominent attorneys say that it has not been invoked within their memory.
The writ of *cortiorari* is a demand on the part of a superior court for the records of an inferior court in order that irregularities might be corrected. It is issued by a party that he has not received justice in the trial by the lower court.
In the writ of habeas corpus presented to Sweden, 13 allegations were filed against the trial jury consisted of white men only, and that the state moved the trial from Annapolis to Towson, thereby making conviction certain. It reads in part: "When I was taken to Baltimore County, a jury was drawn from the county, none of whom being of my race, I being a colored man, a stranger in Baltimore county. The case was widely published thrustout the whole state, creating extremely favorable impressions in my home and in my community, was born and resided all my life and unfavorable impressions in Baltimore county and elsewhere. After objections and reasons made against the change or venue from Anne Arundel county were overruled, there was nothing to expect but the most adverse blissiness in the trial. Before whom I necessarily had to submit my case upon the evidence." ERROR IN PROCEDURE
The writ further alleges an error in the manner in which the jury at Towson made known its findings

Mr. Young entered the school system of Baltimore some twenty years ago through a competitive examination, making a remarkable high level. In less than a year he was made principal of one of the schools in the northern section of the city, where for nine years he maintained an excellent record for efficiency. He resigned in 1913 but returned to the work of teaching in 1915, serving at Yale and Carry Street Schools, returning to the former school last September, and from which he has just resigned.
Mr. Young is known as an unconventional champion of the rights and privileges of the race. Only a few weeks ago it leaked out that he was superintendent of schools on the segregation policy followed at the various educational meetings held for the teaching
When asked by the Afro-American reporter whether he had with his resigning, Mr. Young stated that it had not that he had at first expected that he would take work that would take him out of doors far more than could be possible in the work of teaching, but when he was offered the job he felt it best to resign at once in order that the bureau of social service might be put in operation without

GALLOWS NO TER- ROR TO SNOWDEN
Annapolis, Md., Feb. 18—Expressing a wish to see Governor Harrington and talk over the case with him, but not to ask for clemency, John Snowden dictated the following statement to Ms. Georgia Boston, of Asbury M. E. church who has been singing and praying with him at the jail.
In the statement he asked to see Mary Perkins and. Edith Creditt in order to show them the scaffold in the jail yard that still stands in the room where the musics for the 28th of the month when Snowden will be hanged. Snowden protests his innocence of the crime and says he willingly forgives the women who are send to the gallowies by false testimony.
Snowden remains cheerful in his cell where he is visited by his spiritual adviser, the Rev. Holt, every day. He spends his time in singing and reading. It is said he has only learned to read since being in jail. The statement was prepared by Mr. Snowden in the presence of the day death watchman. Basil, who signed the statement after it had been sworn to and signed by Snowden. The statement was begun last Sunday and completed after seven days work on it.
GOD KNOWS HOW HE WAS TREATED.
"On August 13, 1917, I was at work watering the horses at the fountain near the market and four men came in and waited me to go to Mr. Green's office. I told them to wait until I carried the money I had to Mr. Parlett's office. So I carried the money there; and Mr. Parlett told me to hurry back. When I went to Mr. Green's office he began to tell me that I did not know anything about it. It was a surprise to me when I was told I was accused of the crime, and God alone knows how I was treated. But my heart is clear of all harred and malice against my enemies. I have nothing in my heart against anyone on earth, and only ask God to forgive them so they can meet me in heaven.
NEVER SAW LOTTIE BRANDON
"I want to thank all of those who have taken such interest me since I have been locked up in prison. As true as we are a God I am an innocent man. For one year and six months I have been a great sufferer, though I have told them all, time and again" that I was wrong. "I tell me a tale and say that I did it. And I wouldn't take a false cath before God nor man, to say I did do something that I did not do. I have never been to the lady's house and I have never seen her in my room. I had never seen her husband and I saw him at Towson, on the stand, and if I have to die, I will die telling the truth. Christ was put to death by his enemies, though he was proven to be innocent, but they cried "cruelly Him" and I was wrong. "I will say as Stephen said "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do."
"I also want to thank Rev. Briscoe, who was my first spiritual advisor, for visiting me and bringing me sweet words of cheer and telling me about the sweet love of Jesus; and Rev. R. S. Holt, my present spiritual advisor, who is at my side each day and night, offering up prayers to God that I may hold of faith and get in touch with God. God, God, God! Boston, Mrs. Arminta Dennis and others, whose songs and prayers helped to save my soul from hell.
"The Lord has redeemed my soul. There is nothing more that I can do for I have told the truth, and I shall go in the presence of God telling the truth for God loves the truth and not a lie, and I know that Jesus redeemed my soul. I want to teach men to shape their lives out different from the way I shaped mine for when I was younger my mother used to carry me to Sunday School but after the Lord took her away I strayed away from my Christian principles. But since I have been in prison and the Christian been brought to the foot of the Covenant and washed in the blood of Jesus and now His true light shines in my soul. And as I shall step out of time into eternity on the 25th of February, I shall go into God's presence not as a murderer, but as an innocent man, and there was a dear mother, who left me to a small but battle in this world alone, before I go to the scaffold.
"I would like to see Mrs. Mary Perkins and sister. I want to show them the scaffold that they have been the cause of me being hung, and I want to shake them." 28th. Then I want that I forgive them for the false ouths they have taken against me and to get right, with God, so to meet me in heaven for as true as the Lord is upon His throne when the breath leaves this body, and we be safe in the arms of Jesus."

Value of the Negroe Press Recognized by the Establishment of School sf Journalism. To Lay Out Victory Avenue
Washington, D. C.; Feb. 19.—In a statement to the Afro-American today, Président Stanley J. Durkee outlined his new plans for the Howard University, which received the sanction of the Board of Trustees, in their recent meeting and will be put into operation forthwith. In addition to important provisions for raising the standards of teaching, the most significant step is the discontinuing of all secondary instruction at Howard, and making it altogether a college and professional school.
"The Board of Trustees of Howard University met on February 14 to discuss the need for the mid-session meeting than has been usual. The President had drafted a large number of recommendations, copies of the recommendations, and members of the Board so that each was aware of the business which would come before the meeting. It was one of those full, hearty days and will prove, as one of the trustees in the history of our University.
"Recognizing the part our University has played in the great world war, the Trustees voted to lay out a Victory-Avenue, under the guidance of the Government landscape gardner, along which avenue should be planted trees and different memorials to perpetuate the splendid achievements of the race. The Summer S. A. T. C., on their graduation, presented the Trustees with $400, that some, memorial might be erected to commemorate their summer's work here. It is proposed that a statue of General Howard be erected on that Victory Avenue, and perhaps one to the memorial, to be with you till we meet again." That old song is peculiarly a Howard song.
"The approaches to the University are to be beautified. We are hoping that some friend or friends may feel like building memorial gates to the University grounds, to decorate the campus, to class that has graduated will be asked to plant a tree or trees, to beautify a room, or leave a picture or static or other memorials as a gift to the University. The Art Commission, appointed to work in connection with the District Comptroller, will have charge of locating the memorials, trees, and such gifts.
SABRATICAL YEAR FOR
TRACHES
"The Trustees voted that as soon as practicable, sabbatical years for our professors be established, with one-half pay, providing such professors use those years for advance study. A salary scale for professors was established, and the standard was established and the basis upon which Associate Professors, Assistant Professors, and instructors should be advanced in rank. The basis was—(a) moral character; (b) spirit of cooperation in University ideals; (c) academic degree; (d) publication of a scholarly character; (e) marked efficiency.
"As soon as practicable graduate work is leading to the A. M. degree to be established. Reverend Emory B. Smith, president of the National Alumni Association, has been invited to spend from two days in the interests of a more active, conscientious cooperation with the Alumni Associations of the University.
"A Department of Physical Education was established with a professor in full charge who shall have supervision of all the physical work of the University with the necessary be necessary; proper credits to be counted in and necessary for graduation. This physical education will cover all four years of college life. This is a great departure from the traditional modes of handling the physical work of a college or a university.
SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM
"A new department was established and that a Department of Publication be created in the University, and a professor called to have large. "Another current change was a consolidation of all the deans' offices into one room. The vote reads "That a Deans' Room be established in which will be one or more typewriters, a dictaphone, a proper necessary machines for the proper carrying on of the work; that the department raphilers be employed to do this department work; that all the work of the Deans center here; the present individual offices being selected that each Dean shall have a small room for private conference."
SUNDAY SCHOOLS ABOLISHED
"In this connection it will be instructive to note at once that a new office of registrar is created, all the work of registration, the keeping of 'records' corresponded with students, etc. to be done by the new office, thus relieving the.

"It was voted that the Commercial be discontinued with the end of this present year. Its place will be taken, however, by a School of Commerce and Finance which will hold a college grade, allowing the student to so, spend the last two years of the college work in this department of education." "One of the most revolutionary moves, was the abolishing of the Academy." The vote reads "That as the need for the Academy has now been outgrown, the Academy be discontinued, with the 'end of the present school year'." A long look, however, was taken at the

needs of today and tomorrow in our secondary work. Scholarships of $50.00, many of which have already been raised, will be granted to students for Howard University. Committees are already at work listing the secondary schools and seeking to stimulate those, that are not up to the grade which is demanded on entrance at Howard. The University is working to stimulate all over the country our secondary colored schools, so that by certificate their students may be admitted to the Freshman Class at the University. Special emphasis is laid upon this and a great number dawns for all the secondary work.
"In this connection it will be most interesting to read the hearty resolutions past by the Trustees relating to Professor George J. Cummings, for many years Dean of the University, and that we recognize the long and faithful service of Professor George J. Cummings, for many years Dean of the Academy of Howard University. With the close of this semester he will mark with this experience his first admission from college, the fifth year of his active teaching, and the fifth year of his married life; and that the Board of Trustees extend to Professor Cummings their suggestions for such a dear user, for he, and deep thanks for the invaluable service he has rendered the cause of education for colored youth during the thirty-four years he has spent with this University, and that, in appreciation of the hard work of the esteemed Cummings, he received from further duties after June 30, 1919, and be paid an annuity."
"New offices were created which will have great influence on the life of the University. These offices are Dean of Men and Dean of the colleges and departments of the University are vital. Nine schools are established, each one of them on the basis of a two years' college course or a diploma as the Junior College; the other nine specialized schools take up the courses of the last two years. For instance, the studies common to all will be taken up during the first two years in the Junior College; the studies in the Senior College will be taken fitting the studies for whatever line of endeavor he wishes to take."

Five hundred forty-eight new members have been secured in the membership drive which was launched at the Y. M. C. A. on Wednesday, February 12th, making a total of 1014 members.
The drive, which was very carefully and skillfully planned, was organized into teams, each team representing an automobile firm.
As the Ford car always leads, no one thought it strange when the Ford team lead all other teams, with 89 new members to its credit. The Packard, one of the leading cars, ran second. A word of praise is due Mr. George, Nickens, a member of the Packard team, who alone secured 65 new members.
Due to the amount of success that the drive has achieved, the time of closing has been extended from last Monday until next Monday.

Senate Stops Employment of Soldiers on Public Work.
Washington, February 20—The United States Senate, recently amended the Postoffice bill carrying an appropriation of $400,000,000 and an additional $200,000 for road, building by prohibiting the employment of American soldiers as laborers in the Southern States. The amendment was of little effect on New Jersey. One of its effects will be to stop any desire to put colored soldiers to work as laborers on public work.

1. Your attention is invited to the fact that the Hostess House at 2nd avenue and 13th street is intended primarily for colored troops and it is highly desirable that they be properly housed, unless their numbers are so great that this particular House will not accommodate them. The officials in charge of the other Hostess Houses in camp report that the colored soldiers of white soldiers from these houses, and for obvious reasons this is not desirable. These same officials are highly anxious to please and serve the colored soldiers, but much prefer them to use the house above mentioned women to operate it.
2. It is not considered necessary or even desirable to issue orders requiring colored soldiers to use the Hostess House at 2nd avenue and 13th street, but all organization commanders will have the colored troops under them and endeavor in every way possible to have them use it exclusively.
3. This applies particularly to Sundays, when, in all probability, large number of white women with colored soldiers, and it is not desirable to have them served and accommodated in the same Hostess House with the families or the colored soldiers if it can possibly be avoided.
4. The co-operation of all officers on duty with colored troops how in camp is desired, with a view to preventing friction between the white and the colored soldiers, particularly at the cafeterias in the Hostess Houses.

Corporal Arthur F.

The Governor is asked to use his efforts to stamp out "these unjust African Americans" in attacks at segregation. The colored Hostess House has been freely used by white troops.

Hark, whisper, angels say,

What is this absorbs me quite.
Sheals my senses, shuts my heart,
Tell me, my soul, can this be death?
The world recedes, it disappears.
Heaven opens on my eyes, my ears.

I cry, I mount, I cry,
O grave, where is thy victory,
O death where is thy sting?

TYLER'S COURAGE
told of a certain Auditor into the office of the State some years ago, follow article published in the state, published the pregovernment Department. According to the Secretary a client of the auditor spoke up wanting my resignation. He did his早前 preparation Before Mr. McAdoo could move money in the news. I don't have to keep waiting to a Government job recorded whether Mr. McAdoo to the above, but it is already turned his back on a political job that he is. Tyler went abroad as the Bureau of Public Affairs at the would report the man or favor. Mr. Emmerman deserves the credent was sent to observe troops on the Western banks and since returning to the raised his friends and are members of discrimination at Europe. Information officially petitioned the most colored Americans of this country through to the Cleveland AZ office is associate editor. Allowed his articles point to he defends the four colors and condemned the charges office with colored officers unarmed the enemy, uselessly and arrived in Paris on S colored soldiers for the months. It is rather committee was in such a back and all the soldiers did not approve of the man. Tyler handed in his reside did to Mr. McAdoo so same conditions. This however it is refreshing that Tyler now and then, w when they pregovernment Department.
The story is told of a certain auditor of the Navy who was called into the office of the Secretary of the Navy McAdoo some years ago, following a particularly biting article published in the Washington HERALD, white, condemning the practice of segregation in Government Departments.
Without giving the Secretary a chance to say a word or reproof, the auditor spoke up and said: "Mr. Secretary, you want my resignation, don't you, well here it is" and laid his already prepared resignation on the desk. Before Mr. McAdoo could recover, he added, "I made money in the newspaper business years ago, and I don't have to keep my mouth shut for fear of losing a Government job."
It is not recorded whether Mr. McAdoo made a fitting reply to the above, but it is recorded that Ralph W. Tyler turned his back on the Navy Department and a political job that he had held under two presidents.
When Mr. Tyler went abroad as the representative of the Creel Bureau of Public Information, it was known that he would report the things that he saw without fear or favor. Mr. Emmet Scott, more than any other man deserves the credit that such a correspondent was sent to observe conditions among colored troops on the Western front.
While in France writing for the Bureau of Public Information, and since returning to this country, Mr. Tyler has amazed his friends and aroused his enemies by exposes of discrimination against colored soldiers in Europe. Information that American Army officers officially appointed the French Government to treat colored Americans as "interior" came to the ears of this country thus the dispatches
of Ralph Tyler to the Cleveland ADVOCATE ? of which paper he is associate editor. Still more recently have followed his articles pointed and informative, in which he defends the four officers of 366th accused of cowardice and condemned by court martial. Mr. Tyler charges white officers with failure to cooperate with colored officers under them, and in the face of the enemy, uselessly sacrificing both officers and men.
Ralph Tyler arrived in Paris on September 28th and visited colored soldiers for the period of less than three months. It is rather hard to see why the Creel Committee was in such a hurry to have him come back and leave all the soldiers in France, except that it did not approve of the articles he was writing home.
Maybe Mr. Tyler handed in his resignation to Mr. Creel like he did to Mr. McAdoo some years ago, and under the same conditions. This has not leaked out yet. However it is refreshing to come across men like Ralph Tyler now and then, who do not put on a muzzle, when they accept a Government appointment.

DOUETFUL WISDOM

The wisdom of the action of some friends of Snowden in procuring a writ of habeas corpus and certiorari at just this time is doubtful.
Despite the Governor's firm stand for the hanging of the condemned man on the date set, public opinion among the leading colored and white people of the state has been favorable to Snowden, and both races were working together on petitions and delegations to the State's Chief Executive with a very fair hope of success.
The letters of various white persons in the daily press declaring their belief in Snowden's innocence declare two things, first that the evidence on which Snowden was convicted should never have convicted a white man, and secondly, that the husband of Mrs. Erandon is the real murderer. These letters were the visible evidence of the larger florts being carried on silently to move Governor Harrington, fostered by all the leading white business men and merchants of Annapolis, and by prominent citizens of Towson. Now that Lawyer G. L. Pendleton appears on the scene with writs of habeas corpus and centorari, calculated to show certain irregularities in the trial of the case at Towson, and calling upon the United States Supreme Court as arbitrer in the matter, the people of Annapolis felt immediately that the case was being carried out of the state, that they were not given a chance to show what they could do, and therefore that they should withdraw their support from delegations and their names from petitions. Opinion in Annapolis is that the filing of such writs should have been a matter of last resource, when everything else had failed, and that as long as there was any hope of moving the Governor, no legal steps should have been taken.
Mr. Pendleton and his clients are undoubtedly overexposed and acted too hastily. One no doubt hair sincerity, but at the same time, they have taken the case out of the hands of Snowden's lawyers, and themselves assumed the responsibility for whatever comes to the condemned Snowden. If Snowden is hanged, his blood will be upon them, and if he comes out a free man, as Mr. Pendleton claims he will, it will still be said that Mr. Pendleton and his clients injured with the case at a time when there was every hope of getting the governor to commute the sentence to life imprisonment.
That the habit deserved during the war of cutting the non-essentials and putting savings into Government, Bonds and War Savies, and "Thrifts" might not be immediately unlearned is the task set
for the newly organized War Savings Division of the Treasury.
The statement reads:
"The ultimate object of the Treasury's thrift campaign will be to bring home to American the great personal value of intersaving. Stress will be laid on wise buying a investment in absolutely safe securities, such as government offers, and an avoidance of air. It is hoped to make these principes permissible of everyday life and thus assure steady perity to the nation and to the individual." Congressional investigation has shown the Government has squandered a good bit of the raised in the Liberty Loans, yet it is apparent if the best part of it had not gone into ships, tions and equipment, peace would be farther than his at present and instead of having on marching home, we would be sending Class maybe Class III of Drafted men to the front-officials have made human mistakes, but if they have gotten the thing done. For this deserve credit.
It is a good thing that the Government needs money. It is a good thing that during these times that it will continue to educate the citizen the art of "saving until it hurts." It is pointed out that saving is not hoarding rather putting the money that would be spent unnecessary into interest bearing invests putting away funds for future needs and everuries; paving the way to EASY STREET. The one habit that easy going colored American whole have not acquired. Buying War Stamps and Thrift Stamps is a patriotic need and more than this a step toward putting on manent Characteristic that is worth while.

Congressional investigation has shown that the Government has squandered a good bit of the money raised in the Liberty Loans, yet it is apparent that if the best part of it had not gone into ships, munitions and equipment, peace would be farther off than it at present and instead of having our boys marching home, we would be sending Class II and maybe Class III of Drafted men to the front. Our officials have made human mistakes, but after all they have gotten the thing done. For this they deserve credit.
It is a good thing that the Government needs more money. It is a good thing that during these peace times that it will continue to educate the citizens in the art of "saving until it hurts." It is pointed out that saving is not hoarding, but rather putting the money that would be spent on unnecessary into interest bearing investment; putting away funds for future needs and even luxuries; paving the way to EASY STREET. Thrift is one habit that easy going colored Americans as a whole have not acquired. Buying War Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps is a patriotic necessity, and more than this a step toward putting on a permanent Characteristic that is worth while.
WILSON QKEYS MOTON'S TRIP
Whatever the colored press may think of Moton's advice to colored troops to be "mode unassuming" on their return to this country, dent Wilson gave the Tuskegee Principal his okey in the following letter made public during week:
"Dear Principal Moton: I wish to express my appreciation for the service you have rendered the past few weeks in connection with our soldiers here in France. I have heard not of the wholesome advice you have given them in their conduct during the time they will be in France, but also of your advice as to how should conduct themselves when they return own shores. I very much hope, as you have as that no one of them may do anything to spendlend record that they, with the rest American forces, have made."
Whatever the colored press may think of Dr. Moton's advice to colored troops to be "modest and unassuming" on their return to this country, President Wilson gave the Tuskegee Principal his official okay in the following letter made public during the week:
"Dear Principal Moton: I wish to express my appreciation for the service you have rendered during the past few weeks in connection with our colored soldiers here in France. I have heard not only of the wholesome advice you have given them regarding their conduct during the time they will remain in France, but also of your advice as to how they should conduct themselves when they return to our own shores. I very much hope, as you have advised, that no one of them may do anything to spoil the splendid record that they, with the rest of our American forces, have made."
Signed: W. WILSON

From Newport News, and Camp Sevier letters have come to the AFRO-AMERICAN during the week confirming the inhuman conditions under which colored soldiers are kept in the service without getting their discharge, and telling again how they are being exploited by capitalists.
In another column is a statement from a Baltimore, who was drafted and carried away from home during the period of his wife's confinement, and who has not been allowed a furlough or to apply for discharge. Brutal treatment, in addition to this, shows plainly that Congressman Tillson was right in saying that colored soldiers were held in slavery.
An aroused Congress passed a bill during the past week prohibiting the employment of soldiers on public work in Southern states. This is a long step toward getting the discharge of a number of colored troops employed in building roads and apartment houses for southern capitalists, under the guise of cantonment construction. But there is still more to be done in liberating soldiers from Southern slavery.
The War Department as well has obtained an official report of the conditions in and around the Newport News section, and the assurance is given out that the injustices to the men there will be stamped out.
These steps were not taken to remedy conditions a bit too soon. The very fact that soldiers were willing to publish such charges against their superior officers is an indication that conditions were all too serious, and the men desperate enough to seek relief in spite of the threats against their freedom.
"THE HOME COMING"
Back from their days of danger daring,
Over the leaguer of foam,
Back from the scenes of their far wartaring,
Our dusky boys come home.
We who have praise for them, and through days for them,
Lifted a silent prayer.
How shall we meet them, how shall we gree Dauntless and debonair?
We are proud of them, all the crowd of the Loud be the lilt of our cheers!
In the wild rattle and rage of the battle,
Ah, but they knew no fear.
Fierce was the fight of them, strong was the of them;
We who have praise for them, and through long days for them.
Lifted a silent prayer.
How shall we meet them, how shall we greet them, Dauntless and debonair?
Fierce was the fight of them, strong was the might
of them;
Brave in the face of the guns;
Valliant and cheery from Chanteau Therry
On to the fall of the Huns.
If we could for them, this we would for them;
Blazon, the long/long roll.
Blazon it brightly, blazon it rightly.
Large on our honor scroll!
Then a great shout for them, never a doubt for them
Shout then the Triumph of Mars;
Reach out the hand to them, through all the land
to them
Sons of the Stripes and Stars.

SOUTHERN FRANCE
Mrs. Kosa Hall of 1211 Drudl Hill avenue, received a letter from her son. Private Nathaniel Hall, Headquarters Co. 538th Engineers, A. E. F. He writes: "I am and getting ahead! I am bummed I have turned from a trip down South and we certainly had a fine time while away. We went to a big resort about fourteen miles from the city of Toulon and played for the Heineken and diers no have been back from Europe. This place has no doubt been a winter resort for the very wealthy, as every hotel is very large and look like palaces inside. It was a wonderful sight to see flowers, dates and oranges growing in what would be mid-winter.
The boys from the front had wonderful tales to tell about the war and I had a chance to get big stories from them all. One soldier had been prisoner for five months and told me of the suffering of the prisoners of our other had his head nearly blown in bullet splinter while another was burned with mustard gas. So it went, every one with some hair raising incident about the war.
Our band has improved considerably and is in great demand in this section. When we went away from home we had to praise from everybody. The talk everywhere now is when we are going home and I am very anxious to get started westward myself.

Snowden Case Goes To Supreme Court
Continued from above and then pronounced sentence. The laws of the state of Maryland are said to declare that the jury must ascertain in their verdict whether the guilty party is guilty in the first degree or second degree. It is stated that the Towson jury brought in the verdict of "Guilty," only, without adding "in the first degree," and that that jury were wrong by instruction from Duncan without the jury first deliberating upon them.
Finally the writ avers that the record of the verdict was not entered on the docket, but sent to the court law requires, but entered on the docket the next day, "out of the presence of the jury, the court and of the condemned man." For these reasons the writ claims to the verdict has ever been rendered against "Snowden" and that he is held in jail and about to be deprived of his life on February 28th in violation of his constitution. The court due process of law" CASE TO BE FILED NEXT

In discussing the case with a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN, Mr. Pendleton said that everything was ready for filing case. He said the case weed. He said that the Supreme Court had already handed down an opinion in a similar case making it illegal for colored, people, to be condemned for death by juries of which no colored man was a member.
He added that he expected to see the highest court of the land do the same thing in the Snowy Mountains, and he would be illegal and improper, method of recording the decision in the case at Towson and said he, expected either that Snowden would get a bail be he made guilty, or would he be free.
EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE
A MISSISSIPPI BOURBON.
The Daily Commonwealth is the name of a white newspaper published at Greenwood. Miss. In its issue of February 8, under the caption "Good Many Negroes are Registering," published the following letter:
"Circuit Clerk G. S. Pate informs the Daily Commonwealth that a good many Negroes are applying at his office and registering for the purpose of voting in our elections, according to their statements to him.
"Our advice to these Negroes and all other Negroes who contemplate registering, is that they had better get this idea out of their heads as soon as possible.
The Negroes are getting along mighty well with the white people, and when they begin for some time—and they ought to have better sense than to think that they will ever again have the remotest chance of voting in our elections. Such a thing is simply unthinkable, and the sooner those Negroes who have registered—and those who contemplate doing so this fact, the better for them."
"Therefore the thought should
be misplaced mind"—N. X. Aga
NEGRO SPIES
A revolution has taken place among twelve million Negroes in the United States. The revolutionists are way on top—and we want the government to know who they are. We are disfranchised. We don't like that. We are lenched. We don't like that. We are Jim Crowed and segregated. That does not set at all. We are in pogrom. It is bitter. We are discriminated against in the government service. We are not treated as women are insulted and reduced to prostitution in the South. It stings like an adder's bite. We pay taxes and abide by the laws, but we do not get the protection of the laws. We know it and are not enough to handle that deep deal. We know that government by the consent of the governed should include us. But our voice is not heard.
If anybody is fool enough to think we are satisfied after this—it is conclusive evidence that he is the builton. The Negro spies are peculiar spies that the enemy has what they are doing and what they intend to do. They show up their Negro editors with pitiless publicity and plain speech. In fact they regard their big Negro leaders as their worst enemies. We young Negro spies are going to follow Russia's lead. She cleaned up for her Carr and the Russian mobility and fought Germany at the same time. We expect to do the thing. We are painting fight the national and class injustices without our ranks, and at the same time, clean up for every traitor like our Negro editors in New York and our ignorant politicians. And they know we will do it. We have warned our big Negro leaders. We are starting our fight for democracy. A black rassail that gets in our way will fare no better than a white secondrail—and probably a little worse.

LOW THOUGHTS AND WORDS.
"The darkies of Jackson have no more chance (at the Peace Conference) than a snow bird would have in Hades without feathers." -The Jackie Wilson memoir, cutting out preparations for the hair and the skin stoop to the lowest in street vernacular in holding up the race to ridicule. A casual perusal of the advertisements from certain well known firms run the following "jewels of reproachful expression": "Kinky hair made long and fluffy." -"Kinky no-more will straighten the kinkies, kind of hair." -"Nappy, kinky hair." -"Even a grappy kitchen be made soft and long."
We recommend all well wishers of the race force the discontinuance of these degrading expressions. They smack of ante-bellium, disrespect, and a low grade of intolerance.
Our expressions can no more be applied to self-respecting persons of color than the vulgarity "nigger." -Half Century Magazine.
Gotham Boys Take Harlem By Storm
Continued from Page 1 of abuses such as the slave trade, the arms traffic and the liquor because of wounds received in France, and the greeting that is rightfully due here. As the heroes marched up Lenox avenue, in the Harlem district, a dense mass of humanity, which included mothers, wives, sisters and sweet hearts of the soldiers sent up a short distance from the guns of the black troops when they had the Germans on the run. At 135th street and Lenox avenue was the unofficial stand, where many prominent white and colored citizens were seated. The parade of soldiers flew from the tired troops knew by the cheers of the multitude and the gaily and patriotically decorated streets along the route of march that all New York was proud of the regiment that only a year ago had been presented a stand of color to Governor Whitman, Logoine Club Governor Whitman, making the presentation speech.
A fine dinner was served the men at the 71st Regiment Armory and then there was speechmaking, a vaudelle show. Bert. Williams and boxing matches for diversions.

old. When my last baby was born I went to the local board and asked for thirty days suspension, but they would not grant me this. nor would they grant me ten days. In fact they would not talk to me. I applied for the 19th of December and I have not heard anything from it as yet, nor have they made any attempt to turn loose the other boys who applied at the same time. The same fees that are told concerning a discharge are not charged. If you asked for a through the commanding officer tells you that you will be discharged in two or three days; and they have been telling us this for two or three months. If we say anything about when they are going to be discharged any answer, then say that we are going to send to Washington and see if something cannot be done about the way we are being treated. we are told that the first one that writes to Washington to be discharged will be sent in the brief and kept there until when he gets out he will behave himself.
"Now, sir, I saw in the Afro-American an account or how the colored soldiers were being treated as slaves in this vicinity and I am afraid the gregs give me the same self-affection the public know that the army is not the only place in which colored boys in the service of the United States are treated as slaves for the navy is treating us the same way here.
"Talk of brutal doctors—they are here. They never think a colored man gets hurt or sick but a white man then there is a difference.
The other week a colored man was struck over the eye with a piece of falling coal which tore a place, removing the flesh in such a manner that the skin of being cut with a knife. He was sent to a doctor who put a little iodine on the cut and told him to go back to work, that he would be alight in two or three hours. The man told him his case from duty until he felt better. The doctor told him if he did not go back to work he would put him in the brig. That's the democracy a colored man goes after the war. The state of Virginia are nothing but little heals that are set up to torment colored men who would be something if they were allowed to rise. If these camps and these places are allowed to continue this war, they will soon have the slaves will and will try to hold slave slaves.
"There is a colored master-of-arms over us and the commanding officer has charged him so severely that he is as bad on us as the officers did not have a yellow streak of blood in his veins he would give up his job but sometimes he thinks he is one of the officers from the way he treats us. There are boys here from almost every State in the Union. There are some who are treated, and there are some who will not stand for it and when we speak of how we are being treated the white officers try to spring a fight. The men resent this and the one that strikes the officer always is held in a court-martial of prejudiced officials." Signed.

SAVE THE BOYS!
Here is a poem that the 'Y'
ought to adopt.
Save the boys the happy boys.
While their lives are pure:
Set their thoughts in rarest mold
Faultless, firm secure.
Save the boys, the noisy boys
Music is that noise.
Keep it so, may not it be
Else but sign of joys.
Save the boys, the erring boys
Show the perfect way
They'll give ear for they are boys
And not hard to sway.
Save the boys ere sin unsnares
In its meshes strong
And they stray from youths glad
hour
Into paths of wrong.
Save the boys, it is their job
This old world to steer.
Let us help them to steer it right
And they will, don't fear.

Mobis, Ali—It is a long step from Chicago to Mobile, but I have made it and I tell you it is a fine thing to study our civilization. We have more of it than any other country in the world. For we have it biggest and the lowest, we have it broad and we have it narrow—we are Chris's name and then we are heathens, an we can descend below the barbarian, and there are few now where we would be a dirigent to this class y people.
I thank God that we have a country that will go abroad to the rest of the weather people, and proclaim freedom for the world. For any reason that can do that will become a name and do the same thing a home. I have no criticism to talk for America I have words of male and the same for our President. He is a great man, and has had the burden of the world on his shoulders all because of that some of the heathen Americans have taken advantage of his burdens and burned human beings. Have taken life without indice or jury—in fact they have put law under their own they and exced
Lynchling in Tennessee, in Mississippi in Tennessee, in Alabama, in-well a would take a whole paper to tell the various places, and law the heats part of our country have been acting with President Wilson as been away looking after the weaker natives. Some of these men have shown to the world that they were winning to back up anning that Mr. Wilson might do. In the name of God I want to appeal to America now to protect all of her citizens. To see to it that every man arrived in this country, I care not a ensp of your finger about the race or color, is proved and if convicted punished by the law, and if not then let him go free. We want only law and order, and as a race we are not asking for any special law or special privileges.
Now I have Chicago as a man, and permitted to free as a man. I sit in the office, and when I get to Louisville, I am still permitted to role where my people are, but when I leave, I must hunt for a "special" for me and my people. I must love Louisville and Nassau. Nassau has improved now, because they have separate toilet for men and women, a smoker and then as I pass to the smoker I see char care for all people, care for all women, care for all people, care for all those things for me. I simply pray "Lord how I can," I am still praying "Lord how I can," I am still praying "Lord how I can," every man who returns from France, where he has to be held to establishment, a human race where he found that powerful nation, not to take the law in the hands, not to establish it, to leave it up to the many judges of our President. Give him a chance, give him a manhood and
Present: Wilson is a man, even in him. He has a party to go against, but at the first election his country gave me a Congress that will take a many stand. I believe. Nor let us see. He has at one time spoken out against you, and I believe he is willing to face up his words, but let us wait and see. The current of the league of nations, of democracy, will soon be of his mind, and then the burden of America will follow up before him like a mountain-in fact it is a tall grow mountain and it is no getting around it. We must not go or others more than we do for home. I believe we are not going to go it.
Men wanted to go to France to call about the affairs. At home, but it was a case of "Mother may I go to you?" "No, my son, you must say at home, for you may emoarass me. The men have been told to remain in America, and there is nothing else left for them to do, but to say right here. We have told the words and deeds that we were once under per cent Americans, and we must take our medicine now. We mean what we said, and we must be represented at the table by Frederick Wilson and secretary Lansing. Dr. Mason has been over there and has talked with the boys. I believe he will be in a good word for us.
Lenton, Md. Feb. 11. — Sunday was Women's Day at Union Belt Church. Lovejoy and the Glockenstein, Ms. and Mrs. Addine Lewin spoke on it to be a Christian.

THATCHER IN FINE RECITAL AT BETHEL
The organ recital given at Bethlehem on Sunday at the Greek Methodist Episcopal Church and the Otheb Shannon Symagogy association has doubtless done the remarkable of the organ recitals given there thus far. Since his student days at the Beauboy, has been recognized as one of the foremost organists in the selection of numbers showed him to be a skillful program builder, composer, and organist; many great exponents on the organ to fail in the concert field, Mr. Thatcher's selection shows him to be a well-known literature now extant, yet they at the same time made at once a popular organist. The Suite Gothique by L. Eoelman, with which the program began, apologizes with booor. Although the form is somewhat severe and indebted the "Minute" is a critical element in its structure. The Dune" and the brilliant "Toccata with Suite cwls were made famous.
The numbers of Duboin "In Paradisum" a delicate piece of inspirational music, the March of the Blues were both played with all the delicacy and piquency required for a satisfactory presentation of the French school. The long inverted dominant point which characterizes the "March of the Blues" suggests the use of a bassoon and the Wise Men truly stimulates the imagination and the listener can very easily follow the mood. The transcription of the familiar Pilgrim Chorus from Tainauser and the highly colored "Stradella" overture shows the importance of the problems and difficulties of the organ technique and that his appreciation of orchestral tonal effects and the organ registration has been the result of much superior training plus much practice.
Mr. Taincher's organ playing is at once refined, appealing, educative and
The birtone solostel, Mr. R. Hood Yates, sang with much force and joy, while not very robust, is of a very pleasing quality. Mr. Yates was well received and at the end of Buzzi-Pecoré's victory to the war was forced to take the audience's demonstration of approval. The program in Its entirely served well as a model in arrangement, length and form. Mr. Howard E.
