SOUTH CONCERNED
ABOUT ATTITUDE
OF SOLDIERS
Birmingham, Ala., March 6.—Every section of the south is becoming deeply concerned about the attitude of the returned Negro soldiers from France. The Birmingham News, white, in a column edited by the Negro Soldiers; some Words of Softer Counsel, proceeds to declare: "It is to be feared that a new cause of friction is liable to arise in the south between the two races. There is a great difference of white people to a greater or less degree that these colored soldiers have come back with their heads turned; that they believe themselves to be worthy of the gates of the city and that they are included to insist upon a consideration and upon recognition in ways they did not urge before their service in the army." It is argued by Negro leaders in the army that if the white people have that impression, that at last they have the correct idea on something connected with the Negro. However, The News proceeds to point out that that is an error in the way that it is probably true that these black boys who went to France are willing to plot along in the old ways. However, it is all too true that Negroes of the Southland are not prepared to accept the former race as the basis for crimping and servitude. There is a growing determination to have a clean out show of facts and figures, in an effort to get "equal and exact justice." There is a news and other source joining with the intelligent Negroes of the South in the plan to make right the law of the land.
NO CAMAFLOUGED
JUSTICE WANTED
Atlanta, Ga., March 6.—That the white Smith is awakening to the needs and demands of the hour is attested by the Momentous Conference of white churches in which B. H. Winer, in an address demanding justice for the Negro declared that it should be given without "demonfouling behind a lot of glittering generalities. Among the things that these white people will throw their influence behind in order to secure safer living conditions, educational opportunities extended and courteous, clean traveling accommodations.

Labor Department Gives Statistics of Number of Southerners Who Found Their way Northward During War Period. Nearly a Third of These From Mississippi.
Washington, March 5.—Investigations of Negro migration to the north during the war, just issued by the Department of Labor, indicate that the total migration may have been as great as 350,000, extending over a period of about 18 months during 1916 and 1917. That figures is fixed as the maximum limit, and 150,000 as the minimum limit, and the estimate of James H. Dilard, who had charge of the inquiry, is 200,000. The movement had been under way for a long time before any number determine the number of Negroes moving north. Moreover, so many left separately and unobserved that complete statistics would have been impracticable. The investigator has now determined 35,000 and 45,000 Negroes left that state in 1916-17, and the number to leave Alabama during the same time is estimated at 75,000. State officials, however, made higher estimates, placing the number to leave Georgia at 100,000 and 30,000 Mississippi 100,000.
Lack of labor in the north, due to the cessation of immigration, was the principal cause, the investigators agree. Among the causes operative in the South induce migration were disaffected families, the conditions of the boll weevil, floods, changes of crop system, low wages, poor housing, poor schools, unsatisfactory crop settlements, rough treatment, cruelty of the law officers, unfairness in court procedure, lynchings, from Negroes in the north, and the influence of the Negro press.
The movement of large numbers at the same time was due largely to labor agents, but after these initial groups moved into small numbers, the letters from their friends who had already gone better wages were important. "Every Negro who made good in the North, started a new group on the way," one of the investigators reported. About half the migrants, according to the investigator, went from the town. Another investigator found that the counties in the Black Belt of Alabama which had suffered most were in which there was most poverty among the Negroes, and that the shortage of labor was most acute among the women who made no attempt to keep up with Negro tenures by providing for their subsistence.
One of the promising movements to improve relations between white and colored persons in the South and thus remove causes of the migration appears to the Community Congress plant, the Philadelphia Community College. The feature of this plan is a committee organization including prominent white business men and agriculturists, and prominent colored men, in each city. Committees are chosen from the main body to consider subjects—for example, the issues of law and justice. This group of organization is impressing in emphasizing the common interest of the races in community development, and in providing contact between racial leaders in ways designed to promote harmony, prosperity and good relations. Derecs on Negro affairs as adjuncts to Chambers of Commerce are also highly recommended, as means of bringing together desirable Negro tenants and white landlords and planters. Frequent and confidential conferences upon community problems and active leaders of the races are urged as cooperation between the local important measures toward betterment.
Better housing is recommended, both for North and South. The necessity of higher wages, better homes and better surroundings in South has come to be generally recognized. "Fair treatment opportunity to labor and enjoy the legitimate right to enjoy the surrender of even handed justice in the courts, good educational facilities, sanitary living conditions, tolerance and sympathy" are urged by the Southern University Commission on Race Relations as means of keeping Negro labor in the South. A summary of the investigation has been published bullet entitled, "Negro Migration in 1918-19" which the Department of Labor now has available for distribution.
Associated Negro Press
New York, March 6.—The ungrip-
big subject of discussion here, by
the author, is the wonderful effect the returning of our soldiers is having upon the minds and thoughts of the American people. The event daily in the east and west has taken up the cause of cheering and good will, and this beginning has been taken up by the organizations and people generally. The big effort is to see how the American people come out of all the era of good will that is now being manifested.
A measure has been introduced in the legislature of New York to allow the Fifteenth Legislature of New York national guard Negroes, and to make all those who fought in France eligible for commissions. To this is added an appropriation for permanent armory and clubhouse.
MADDEN NOT POPULAR
WITH CHICAGOANS
Chicago, March 6.—The caucus decision to忍冤 Congressman Gillett, of Massachusetts, the next Speaker of the House, instead to be being discussed generally by the Negro citizens of Chicago. While Congressman Mann has some admirers among members of the race, it is pointed out that he has never been responsible for a Negro appointment and in subjects affecting the welfare of the Negro, he has only been lukewarm in his support. That Congressman Madden who is actually kept in Congress by Negro votes is getting more than a quarter of peace and is also several prominent Negroes in Chicago.
Texans Resent Lynching
Associated, Negro Press
Houston, Tex., March 6.—The better element of people in Texas are beginning to take note of the infamy attained to the city by the record of recent years. The El Paso Times, white, in a lengthy editorial deplores the condition of things, and says the "legislature submit to the people a proposition to to amend the constitution that a lawyer shall be debarred from office, and that he must test or profit." This state, with others, is very much alarmed at the new migration that is starting this spring from the south.

That this subject is one of vital issues, the question of any student of world conditions, Japan in the fore in the big Five may be said to be the spokesmen of the "Colored Peoples of the world."

To have been incessantly executed for killing Louis Brandon. The garteries were packed to capacity as well as the first floor, including both side aisles and the middle side, the overcrowded hallways and into Franklin street. Had there been seating capacity, fully three thousand persons would have been in attendance. The crush to get into the church was made it it was barely possible to make a path through the crowd for the body, and the pastor of the church, Rev. J. A. Briscoe in one time contemplated pronouncing the benediction and dismissing the audience without any service. Front of the aisle, the remains of John Snowden rested in a polished oak casket covered with four wreathes of carnations and roses and a shock of wheat. The flowers were the gifts of unarmed men and women who sat in two benches the sisters and brother of Snowden, and within the channel rail six Mrs. Elia Murray, white, who first told the authorities of Snowden's connection with the disease to hard to free him. Three white newspaper reporters squeezed into the front of the church, and two of them found seats. Places were reserved on the right of the church for the committee from Baltimore and Annapolis and worked in the case together.
Following the singing of Hymn number 509, Rev H. A. Malloy of Baltimore offered prayer, he said that he believed even that time that Snowden was "looking over the battles of heaven upon this faithful people, who have so fully contributed to save his life here on earth."
"Leaning on the Everlasting Arm" was announced as Snowden's favorite hymn and the congregation sang it, with great fervor. Rev Wm. H. Brown read as

The erecting of the scaffold in the yard jail did not affect the man either said ever. He was not put out there was nailing on the outside and kneeling on the inside."
Rev. Holt told also of the walk to the scaffold, siming "I am a child of the King" and before this "Get right with God." In each case the congregation took up the hymns and sang them straight thru. He closed his talk by say-ing, "I worry about John he is alright." Mrs. Georgia Boston, one of the singers who was with Snowden to the end sang very effective "Teh Mother I'll be there." MRS.

AMERICA SHOULD BE
A COUNTRY FOR ALL
New York, March 6—A mighty howl came from Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor, when Hudson Maxin, the great inventor, debarred at a dinner of his own with the hotel Astor that: "There should be brought to this country a million Chinese to do household work and farm labor." Morrison declared: "Trade unions are the most important proposition to the last ditch; serious enough problems have resulted from the importation of Negroes in this country." Notwithstanding this gratitudous inspection, Mr. Maxin held his position as a white man, considered not merely a white man's country, but under the new democracy, a country for all. The statement of Morrison indicates, it is said, the hypothetical sincerity of the labor unions to be on the table, and the fact that the group is put more to the alert in seeking out its salvation.

MOTON AND SCOTT ON SAME STAGE
Speak for Equal Chance for Returned Soldiers. Colored Race Not Decadent.
Boston, Mass., March 6.—A great audience gathered night in Symphony than to pay tribute to the patriotism and valor shown by Negro soldiers in the war, enforced repeatedly as the R. Mason, recently returned from the war, first night and they won the second, and now I believe they are going to win the third. We are asking no special privileges and no special opportunities. All we are asking for the Negroes in this country is to live every other American citizen. In the name of God, after what I have observed over there, after what you have observed, after what those colored men have done to me, after what they me after what they have suffered to make the world safe for democracy. I don't see how any group of nations or any group of men can ever withhold from them right and justice and an equal chance with other human beings. Fifty members of company L of the old 6th Massachusetts regiment were enthusiastically applauded as they gathered through the crowded gathering to their sheer numbers. So there were about 100 members of the choral classes from the Robert Gould Shaw House, who gave selections at intervals throughout the evening under the leadership Free Poleum. The Rev. Dr. Alexander P. Palmer. The Rev. Dr. Alexander P. Palmer. The Rev. Dr. Alexander P. Palmer.
Emmanuel J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War, told of the Negroes' part in winning the war, "it is highly significant," he said, although eight per cent of the total number of men who were called to the colors under the first draft were members of the Negro racial group. These facts and figures not only show the Negroes eagerness to join the war but also the ancient yarn about the black race being a deteriorating or decadent people for the draft law called for men who were physically fit.

"I am sorry you killed Snowden today. He is not the guilty man. I am the man. I could not stand to see another man live with my heart so I put Lottie stay out of the way. I hope his sins fall on me.

Introduces A Measure To Bring Captured Cannon to Baltimore. Interested In Cause of Colored-people Here and in Africa.
Even though there is little chance of securing favorable action immediately on the plan to have Congress give one of the cannon captured by the First Separate Company to the city of Baltimore for commuting to memorial. Senator Jos. I. France, Republican, senator of Maryland, announces that he will present the matter to Congress, hoping favorable action. Senator France's letter is a plea to the city of Baltimore to him from ten representative citizens of Baltimore, asking him to use his good offices to bring one of these cannon to Baltimore.
"The American people certainly have cause to be proud of the legacy of those who have served to him whom you refer (First Separate Co.) They have written their names in characters of immortal glory, which will never be erased or even dimmed by time. I hope that there may be a separate military unit to count the gravel deserts of our colored soldiers in this war, for such a history will not only be an inspiration to all who read it, but it will also be a demonstration of the patriotism of our colored citizens of our colored people.
NOT SATISFIED WITH ADMIN-
"I need not assure you that I am working most earnest in every possible way to advance the cause of the colored people. I am not interested in presenting administration, toward this great cause, and I am deeply grieved to hear the statements of some of the reactionary Southern Senators, made in connection with questions which arise affecting the colored people. There can be any great forward movement in this country toward that true liberty which follows the emancipation of men's minds by the widespread of education and the employment of every power of mankind. Leaders have been displaced by men who think in national terms, and who are free from racial hatred. I REQUESTED IN AFRICA
"I am also working to see that a constructive policy is adopted with reference to Africa. Since the days the pyramids were built, there has been very little advance in many portions of Africa owing to the unprogressive attitude of those who have been in control there.
"In connection with world rebuilding, we must solve this problem. Your paper can do great service in arousing interest in this question. I am enclosing a resolution in which I have referred the motion referring to Africa.
"I hope that we may be able to secure the guns which would be a monument to the gallant services of these, our men in France, to whom you refer. There is little chance of being longing on this subject, however, as present there are no trophies available for distribution. I shall present the matter, however, hoping for favorable action."
WOULD STOP EXPLOITATION
The resolution to which Senator Francis refers is known as Senate Resolution 14, passed on January 14, and referred to the Foreign Relations Committee.
The resolution urged a conference of the Nations of the world to conference of the nations of the two countries. It also considered promotion of justice progress and friendship among and within nations.
The conference would also consider the exploitation of the weaker and stronger and more highly organized nations.
With reference to Africa, which is the sixth point the Conference should consider according to Senator France, it is argued that participation of Asia by the formation of plans for the reclamation of waste lands for the utilization of natural resources, including water powers, for wise colonization, in the interest of those countries and of the world."

Radical New Yorker Says Time Has Come For Colored Soldiers to Fight for Themselves.
At meetings held at Bethel A. M. E. Church Monday night, Baccalaureo Bapist Church Tuesday night and John Greyey's parish treatment, the Universal Independent Improvement Association, struck telling blows in an attack upon the Negro over the world.
Mr. Garvey, whose purpose is to organize a large branch of the association here said: "We have fought and died enough for white people the time has come to light and die for ourselves. "From 1914 to 1918 two million Negroes fought in the insurrections—homemoney. Now they must light for themselves. The time for cowardice is just. The uncle Negro has gone—buried with the Uncle Tate. "All white people are cowards day and the greatest coward of them is the Negro. Africa is the only nation outside of the Turks where the superior numbers take advantage by quiping and burning them. "Let one Negro in New York pass fifteen white men on a street corner, and let one Negro pass one white man and the white man walk no names. The reason is that he is a coward and in the same way many millions of whites in this country bury ten millions of Negroes. With those cowardly whites, Negroes have got to win their freedom just as the Russians and the Japanese have got to by revolution body fighting.
"Nexroes in America cannot do this. They are too hopelessly outnumbered. But in Africa, where there are over four hundred millions Nexroes, we can make the white man eat the salt. All the States to help them organize against this emergency, give the Nexroes the Christian religion of brotherhood and then pay no respect to it themselves. Now they are talking about perpetual peace. But before that time there was battlefield. With no peace as long as all are white and all black people down because they are black. There will be white and all black people down because they are black. There will be white and all black people down because they are black. If they want peace let them give every man an equal chance. Make it possible for a black man to be president of the United States or France or any other country to begin to talk about perpetual peace."

VOTE FOR JOHN W. MARTIN
The man who has spent more than fifty years of his life in the 17th Ward and has ever been an active Republican, working hard, always for the success of the people and with better conditions in the Ward for the whole people. In thinking on the counsellment situation in the 17th Ward, it strikes us very foreboding, that it is highly important that the voters take into consideration as a whole, and then examine into the peculiar characteristics of the several candidates who are asking our suffer-

ages and determine within ourselves which of them would be the most likely to interest himself in the welfare of his constituents as a whole. It is important for the former representatives, to some extent, seem to have over-looked the conditions of the ward which are too well known and too numerous to mention in this space. Mr Martin is allowed to in any form and believes in the square deal to all and is a friend of good government. Mr Martin is the regular Republican organization candidate. Adv.

ACCORDING to help the Centenary
farmers of the South are
required to adopt the slogan of "give
hale of cotton to the Clanternary."
Godfrey Thinkfield is of the opinion
that God's acres should blossom a little more freely and hear a little better than the rest of the plantation. Why does the church have the advantage of powers of preacher and angelization, but the planters take an extra interest and put a few added flowers into the cultivation or damp on fertilizer beyond the usual amount. There's little danger of the Lord having a short time.

Morgan gave an account of the

established Governor Herrington
for hisusal to act in the case.
Cpt. Brown said that he would place any appointment offered to him in the future by Governor Harrison, and he would believe that educated people should show interest in the work of the Governor or be assigned from all committees or other bodies, to which he appointed them.
Cotton Brown had letters read to the body showing that among others Representative Benson and Zilman, Attorney General Albert O'Brien, Attorney General Frank Kelly, both of the late prominent Democratic politicians, and interceded with the Governor to spare Sawdowen's life, problems and legacies he said, were received by the Gina McCormack, the Governor who was simply determined not to pay and no attention to them.
He said that it was reported to him that the Governor became possessed by Sawdowen and with Sawdowen's friends, and complained that "If someone else confessed to the crime, I would burn Sawdowen anyhow."
The action of Attorney Pendleton is taking out writs of cerrion and injunctions against Sawdowen and to turn several prominent persons from interceding with the Governor, Judge Dumont, Judge Moss and a committee of Women, with Mrs. Moss head posed to serve, after Mr. Pendleton and the Governor's permission to write.
Captain Brown said he had received of his time in the past, two wives, one widow and otherwise helping in the case. He added that he would not stop working until the real need for womens' caught and punished.

PASSING THE BUCK TO COLORED OFFICE
Our own boys of the 372nd, who have been retired out recently from Camp Meade are puzzled over the circumstances that caused the moval of their colored officers.
From the time they embarked at Newport for France March 30, 1918 until September 18 they were under the command of their own o including Lt. Ryan, Captain Pryor and others suddenly on the eve of the great offensive, began September 26th, white officers took the o of the colored.
The General Staff of the A. E. F. like the Department gives orders without stating any therefore, so that until the colored office command of the 372nd have no idea of the r for their removal.
The white officers, who supplanted them clearly for the change. One of the 372nd in that of the white officers, who led the regiment the top the first time, at least 30 of them were an unusual casual list considering the num privates killed and wounded. Evidently the man sharpshooters were able to pick out the faces of the officers from their darker men.
At the beginning of the war, the War Depa commissioned colored officers for colored only after irresistible public opinion had been a up. The army itself has never come con to the principle of colored officers for colored t The principle that the Army believes in is colored troops make best fighters when comm by whites. Rather than have this cherished proved higher army men saw to it that one exception only single National Guard Reg was relieved of its colored officers. Only the 8th Illinois kept most of its colored altho Colonel Demison was removed and a man given his place.
Officers of the 367th and 368th, pronounce after training in the Army Camps in this co were given command of raw draft troops, sent the front line, and then without maps, ammun or practice in making raids, sent over the home no man's land and ordered to bring home prize These officers were jim crowed and otherwise mitiated before their men. It seems simply wise idea in view of making it appear that they unfit to lead.
When the history of the war from the man's point of view is written, it will have said that the General Staff of the A. E. F. in directed its energies toward limiting the use of colored officers as commanders, thereby firing friction and seopardizing the morale of theired troops, but that in spite of the lack of hat and good feeling, wherever colored officers given the full responsibility together with the full equipment they proved beyond a doubt the best and only leaders for colored soldiers are co officers.
PASSING THE BUCK TO COLORED OFFICERS
Our own boys of the 372nd, who have been mustered out recently from Camp Meade are rather puzzled over the circumstances that caused the removal of their colored officers.
From the time they embarked at Newport News for France March 30, 1918 until September 18, 1918 they were under the command of their own officers, including LL Ryan, Captain Pryor and others. Then suddenly on the eve of the great offensive, which began September 26th, white officers took the places of the colored.
The General Staff of the A. E. F. like the War Department gives orders without stating any reason therefore, so that until now the colored officers in command of the 372nd have no idea of the reasons for their removal.
The white officers, who supplanted them paid dearly for the change. One of the 372nd reports that of the white officers, who led the regiment over the top the first time, at least 30 of them were shot, an unusual casualty list considering the number of privates killed and wounded. Evidently the German sharpshooters were able to pick out the pale faces of the officers from their darker men.
At the beginning of the war, the War Department commissioned colored officers for colored troops only after irresistible public opinion had been stirred up. The army itself has never become converted to the principle of colored officers for colored troops. The principle that the Army believes in is, that colored troops make best fighters when commanded by whites. Rather than have this cherished dogma proved unequal higher army men so to it that with one exception every single National Guard Regiment was relieved of its colored officers. Only the old Chicago 5th Illinois kept most of its colored officers, altho Colonel Dennison was removed and a white man given his place.
Officers of the 367th and 368th, pronounced fit after training in the Army Camps in this country, were given command of raw draft troops, sent into the front line, and then without maps, ammunition or practice in making raids, sent over the top into no man's land and ordered to bring home prisoners. These officers were Jim crowed and otherwise humiliated before their men. It seems simply with the idea in view of making it appear that they were unfit to lead.
When the history of the war from the colored man's point of view is written, it will have to be said that the General Staff of the A. E. F. in 1918 directed its energies toward limiting the usefulness of colored officers as commanders, thereby increasing friction and soopardizing the morale of the colored troops, but that in spite of the lack of harmony and good feeling, wherever colored officers were given the full responsibility together with the needful equipment they proved beyond a doubt that the best and only leaders for colored soldiers are colored officers.
THE LONG ARM OF THE VOTER
No Governor of Maryland has misused and a this authority as head of the state as has Gov Harrington in the Snowden Case. The Court of Appeals stated specifically in opinion that it did not go into the guilt or issue of the accused but only passed upon the proof. This higher court further designated the or jury as the only authorized authority to pass the merits of the case. With the case up before him for signing of warrant or commutation of sentence, it would that if the trial jury and trial judge (Judge
No Governor of Maryland has misused and abused his authority as head of the state as has Governor Harrington in the Snowden Case.
The Court of Appeals stated specifically in its opinion that it did not go into the guilt or innocence of the accused but only passed upon the procedure. This higher court further designated the original jury as the only authorized authority to pass upon the merits of the case.
With the case up before him for signing of death warrant or commutation of sentence, it would seem that if the trial jury and trial judge (Judge Duncan) should reverse themselves and ask for clemency, the Governor would not have reasonable grounds to refuse them.
More than this, with public sentiment aroused and the best people white and colored petitioning the Governor that the ends of justice would be served by changing the sentence, because they were convinced that an innocent man was being punished, it would appear that no stronger argument for favorable action could be brought.
With the lower court reversing itself and the public bucking them up, the only person or persons clamoring for Snowden's death was Governor Harrington himself or some one whose influence was greater than public opinion.
Herein lies his abuse and misuse of his office.
As governor he is expected to represent all the people, certainly a majority of them. He is expected to lose himself in the office and act not as he himself personally wills but as the people who placed him in office would have him act.
In riding roughhoused over the wishes of the people properly expressed, Governor Harrington has shown his unfitness for the office he holds. By the will of the people he was elected and by the will of the people he can be cast out into utter political darkness. The long arm of the voter reaches even to the State House at Annapolis.
SENATOR FRANCE ON THE CANNON
It is gratifying to note that Senator France thinks well of having some of the cannon captured by the First Separate Company from the Germans brought to Baltimore and set up as a permanent memorial to the bravery and gallanty of our boys. Although he does not believe that the matter can be rushed thru, he says he is in for it, and has already but it before Congress in the proper form. The heart has been made, but there is still need of our civic organizations taking the question up with other Maryland representatives in Congress so that Baltimore shall not be left out in the distribution of problems that our men themselves have taken.
NOBODY'S BUSINESS
What is every body's business is nobody's business to be correct when it comes to welcoming soldiers home. With the first news that the local heroes are to be marching home, a committee of enthousiasm immediately organized to welcome the super style. Shortly after the Governor appointed a committee on welcoming the soldiers and Boston followed suit. The result is that the committees were formed, no official was been extended.
The committee appointed by the Governor are appointed officers, appointed a large number of officers and proceeded to do absolutely nothing at a very late date to send circulars and churches soliciting contributions for the need of welcoming the boys. We suppose they are all home and have donned civilian aidesforasale committee will be about ready a program for the welcoming process. Next time, a large number of our boys' camp Meade and many of them already made of service. They have a right to coexist in they compare Baltimore's reception with the ceremonies held elsewhere.
One part of the 372nd Infantry was received in arms in Pittsburgh, another part (9th) reached the streets of Cleveland to the parade multitude, still another Company L is glad hand in Boston, and President Wilson led Washington men last week. Compatriote men came home Monday, not unanticipated but certainly unwelcome.
order that the citizens may have the oppo-tion to express their appreciation of the spirit of local men in the war, it certainly be the committees to "do something" at once.
What is every body's business is nobody's business proves to be correct when it comes to welcoming the soldiers home.
With the first news that the local heroes would soon be marching home, a committee of enthusiastic citizens immediately organized to welcome them in proper style. Shortly after the Governor appointed a committee on welcoming the soldiers and Mayor Preston followed suit. The result is that altho three committees were formed, no official welcome has been extended.
The committee appointed by the Governor met, elected officers, appointed a large number of committees and proceeded to do absolutely nothing except at a very late date to send circulars around to the churches soliciting contributions for the purpose of welcoming the boys. We suppose after they are all home and have donned civilian clothes, the aforesaid committee will be about ready with a program for the welcoming process.
Meantime, a large number of our boys are at Camp Meade and many of them already mustered out of service. They have a right to complain when they compare Baltimore's reception with the public ceremonies held elsewhere.
One part of the 572nd Infantry was received with open arms in Pittsburgh, another part (9th Ohio) marched thru the streets of Cleveland to the plaudits of the multitude, still another Company L is given the glad hand in Boston, and President Wilson received Washington men last week. Company L Baltimore men came home Monday, not announced but certainly unwelcomed.
In order that the citizens may have the opportunity to express their appreciation of the splendid work of local men in the war, it certainly behoves these committees to "do something" at once.
THREATENING LETTERS
following the refusal of Governor Harrington in the Snowden case and commute the secreth to life imprisonment, several threeders were sent to the executive mansion at 4. These letters expressed the writers' vital of the Governor's action in no unmeasured, and one of the writers went so far as to shoot Mr. Harrington the first time a colored church. one of these missives were signed and in the screen the cowardly spirit of such person would themselves behind anonymous corrections. the Governor need have no fear of what persons will do. Like the people who talked terms of their intentions, others who lateness letters without signing their are rarely turn out to be harmless blowharding else. Without defending the attitude of the Governor whole case, which was grossly unfair and the same time we cannot condemn too soon who would resort to violence in or out. There are fights that must be made spirit and this is one of them.
Following the refusal of Governor Harrington to act in the Snowden case and commute the sentence of death to life imprisonment, several threatening letters were sent to the executive mansion at Napoliis. These letters expressed the writers disapproval of the Governor's action in no uncertain terms, and one of the writers went so far as to threaten to shoot Mr. Harrington the first time he entered a colored church.
None of these missives were signed and in this can be seen the cowardly spirit of such persons who shield themselves behind anonymous correspondence.
The Governor need have no fear of what such persons will do. Like the people who talk in exaggerated terms of their intentions, others who write threatening letters without signing their names, generally turn out to be harmless blowhards and nothing else.
Without defending the attitude of the Governor in the whole case, which was grossly unfair and unjust, at the same time we cannot condemn too severely anyone who would resort to violence in order to retaliate. There are fights that must be made in good spirit and this is one of them.

Mr. J. W. Campbell expressed no personal view when he said that in addition to being black, Snowden was poor and the two were a _____ of a combination. But next to having money is having friends.
Both white and colored friends, believing in the cause of the condemned man rallied to his aid and none of them did more telling service than Captain George Brown. On three different occasions he put up the funds ($500 in each case) to have the case carried on. He offered the suggestion that it would be an effective argument to procure a petition from the jurors and in the past two weeks gave himself almost exclusively to this work.
With any other governor except Hurrington, these efforts in behalf of a man, with whom Captain Brown was altogether unacquainted, would have brought successful results. Friends of justice will be glad to learn that Snowden's death is not the end, but that Captain Brown has declared his intention to stay in the case until the guilty man is found.

Mr. Madden, representative from Illinois introduced a bill in the House recently entitled "an act to regulate commerce." Mr. Madden's bill is aimed at the jim crow car system then the South and would make it unlawful for any transportation system "to deny or refuse to furnish by any device or method what so ever equal and identical rights accommodations and privileges" to every person without reference to race, color or previous condition of servitude.
The bill would make it unlawful further to separate passengers in separate compartments, and the railway or steamboat system would be held responsible if any person were assaulted or injured in attempting to exercise the right granted by the bill.
The penalty as fixed by the bill provides for the forfeit of a minimum of $5,000 for any failure on the part of the railways and steamship companies, and a $1,000 fine and one year in jail for other persons, who should be found guilty by the courts of attempting to bring about Jim crow conditions.
While there is little fault to be found with the bill itself from the point of view of the colored people, yet with the present Democratic majority in Congress, Congressman Madden could have little hope of getting such legislation thru. With the new 66th Congress, conditions will be changed and the chances for success greater.
An Oakland, California minister gives as his reasons for introducing moving pictures into his church and employing them to illustrate his services:
"Ninety percent of all human beings are eyeminded. Moving pictures are a greater success than lectures or concerts.
"Seeing is believing. Hearing is only half believing."
The protest of many ministers against the moving picture in the church is very much like the protest that was made against the piano in the church in the early days of this instrument. This California minister has gotten rid of the competition of the Moving Picture houses by installing one himself, and he has found that the movies make "religion realistic," what every preacher is trying to do with
THE AFRO-AMERICAN
THE PEOPLE'S FORUM
SAYS GOVERNOR THIRSTED FOR SNOWDEN'S BLOOD.
To Editor of the Afro-American; Sir, we received people who, like Grace Humston, the famous New York lawyer, who family believed in Snowden's innocence, and who because of this belief put forth a strenuous effort to gain a reprieve for him.
She did all she was able to do in Snowden's behalf. Had she been permitted to do all that she was prepared to do the house in all probability would not have been put around Snowden's neck. In the short space of time she had at her disposal舒舒 a brief of strong evidence pointing to the innocence of Snowden and the guilt of other persons.
Although this evidence was sufficient to raise in any sane mind a strong doubt of Snowden's guilt, it was not enough to give the Governor, who had an insultible thirst for Snowden's blood.
Mrs. Humiston edits a monthly magazine entitled "New Justice." She informs the writer of this article about the account of the Snowden case in the April issue of her magazine. We should take an interest in this magazine. It can be purchased by addressing Mrs. Grace Humiston, the author, and comment it to all who appreciate her efforts in our behalf.

To the Editor:
On reading the Afro of January 15, 1919, I noted letters from every regiment of our boys except the 111th Pioneer Infantry. This is to let you know that we are on the map.
The we did not arrive to see the grenade in the acting, we were here to see the finish, and are still sticking around to see the job well done.
You wonder what we are doing in the meuntime? Well, the work that we have been doing has not been interesting, to say the least, but, now, to use the French phrase "I est lins!" (It is finished), and we are again "soilder," the German prisoners doing the work we formerly did.
The "soldiering," we still need time for other things, such as school, hikes, boxing, games, and the like. School began last week with an attendance of about 100 men who write their sessions. Sessions are held in the Y. M. C. A. Hut every morning. The material is furnished by the Y. and interspersed with the daily lectures and movies, the venture points towards being successful. Concerning other activities we have done in races and band concerts. Easket ball and base ball teams are in the forming and expect to be heard from. Some of the Baltimore boys with this outfit are: Sge. Albert Reed, Brownie Berry Brooks, William H. Conner, and Corp. Eugene I. Connor. All send best wishes to all their friends thru the 'Aro, and wish the "Best weekly paper in the States" much success. Very much. H. JEROME BRISCOE, Regimental Supply Sgt., 511th Infantry Infant.
FOR SIGHT OF HOME
To the Readers of the Afro-American
Dear Friends:
For some time I have been contemplating whether it would be of interest to the people in Baltimore boys having decided in the alternative, I am endeavoring to acquaint you with the war we have not so far, now that the war is over, we have too much to do. Neither do we have any games being introduced by the Y. M. C. A. and other auxiliaries to employ the spare time they are bearing up in spite of the war, so they then to get back home. I acknowledge that it is hard, ye all come in a soldier, can find no become a kicker. We have spent a greater part of our time in France near the battlefield, that are luckier than our boys. We had very few casualties. We are very thankful to God that our men who have been over here can realize how anxiously we await orders that bring us back to America.
We thank you heartily for the trust you have reposed in us and hope that we have deserved it. You can never realize the comfort that has been derived from the "letters from home" from the Christmas packages and various other things that brought pleasure to us.
There have been lots of understandings to make us unhappy at times but they have to be taken as a part of life and endured. The war is over now and we will soon be here again. You do not know what that means to us. We can only imagine the happy reunion that will take place when we arrive. We yearn for the time to come when we, the representatives of the Negro race can return with flying colors and know that we have upheld the standard set by our fathers in past conflicts.
We ask your prayers and feel that we do not ask in vain. May God bless and take care of you until we meet again.
Yours

I please soldiers stationed there live soldiers the maid of all the ruin a statue of Jesus. I took part in the last drive and were on the front the day the armies was signed.

THE DIVINE RIGHT OF RACE
But along with the divine right of kings must go every other semblance of divine right, including divine right of race. There is no more reason to suppose that God has chosen the white race to exercise forbidden the darker than that he had chosen the Germans to lord it over the other European nations. There exists in the minds of many the deep-seated opinion that the white race has some God-ordained mission to which the weakest breeds must go to help the German Klipling's "White man's Burden" is but the modern refrain of the exploded conject that God has given his chosen race the heathen for their possession to be broken to pieces with a rod of iron. The divine right of kings is a more acceptable doctrine than the heathen. I must consulting to be required to submit to one ruler of divine designation than to be compelled to bow in subjection to a whole race of persons so designed. Most of the unjust and unrightful discriminatory regulations against the egro are implied superior claim of the white race. Wherever and whenever the white man is accorded a single advantage because he is white and the Negro subjected to a single disadvantage because he is black, it represents discrimination, humanization, human or divine. A social fabric built upon this basis rests upon the foundation of sand which will surely be shaken down when the wind and rain of democracy blow and beat upon it; and great will be the fall thereof.

The "Knights of the Kelux Khan" is not an anti-Negro organization; it is a periodic fraternal order, composed of the best manhood of this country. It is a band of many men bound together and by careful consideration and due deliberation devise the best ways and means to handle the most vital questions. They are sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States, the most beautiful emblem that ever floated in the breeze, the Stars and Stripes. They are sworn to law and order; they are allied with the Department of Justice, the police and detective force; they stand for and will maintain the supremacy of the white race, the black race, the Klux to ever ride again, but if Colfax Rameau's dreams come true, and a Klansman is forced to sit in a box with a mixed jury, very likely there will have to be another jury empanelled to try him for contempt of court—Chicago
HIGH AND LOW
There's a minded simmer and a milder simmer. The latter is different in only one way. The latter minded simmer knows good and won't do it.
The high minded sinner doesn't know the right way.
There's hope for the high minded sinner. Although he is set in his ways. If he prays to the man who is inner. There's a chance for his life to be saved.
There's hope for the low minded sinner.
There's a chance for him to escape
If he prays to the man who is inner
Good thoughts and deeds in him will
awake.
High minded shimmer and low minded
Praise God, God. He'll open your heart.
Then you'll know all about the man
who is inner.
If you'll only make a fresh start.

TOO MUCH RELIGION
By Walter Everett Hawkins
There is too much time for doctrine;
Too much talk of church and creed;
Far too little time for duty.
And to heat some heart that bleed;
Too much Sunday Church religion;
Too many stale and bookish prayers;
Too many souls are getting runged
Watching what their neighbor wears.
There is too much talk of heaven;
Too much talk of golden streets,
When one can't be sympathetic,
When a needy neighbor meets;
Too much talk about the riches
to expect but not to use;
When one will not do his duty
As a decent Christian here.
157th DIVISION
GENERAL ORDERS No. 254
December 15th, 1918
On the 12th of December the 371st and 372nd Industries were replaced at the disposal of the American Command,
It is not with profound emotion that I come in the name of the 157th D. I. and in any own personal name to say farewell to our voluminous comrades of battle.
The morning seven months we lived as brothers and brothers, arms sharing the same works, the same fatours, the same dangers, side by side we have participated in the great Champagne battle which was crowned with the proudest of the 157th D. I. will never forget the irresistible dash. The heroic push of the colored American Recipients on the "Crete de Observatoire" and in the plain of Monthels.
The most formidable defence, the best organized machine game nests, the most smashing artillery barrages could not stop them. These elite recipients crossed all of them to the superb disdain of death and thanks to their courageous devotion, the RCD IAND DIVISION during the days of land struggle, always held the lead in the historic advance of the Fourth Army.
Others, not commissioned officers and soldiers of the 371st and 372nd Industries, especially salute your glorious dead and how before your banquet which on the side of the flag like of the Zigzag E. L. conducted us victory.
Dear friends from America, after you have crossed the ocean once more, our crew is here to help. Our crew of creaturets of arms has scaled in the blood of the braves. These brave men are our heroes. Keep a loyal memory of the General, so proud to have commanded you, and remember that his recognition and affection is acquired for always.

There were many "amens" during the course of her brief talk. Rev. J. A.

He said that the condemned man had spent 18 months in prison, and while the Governor had signed him a pardon, God had signed his life warrant. He said in part: "Why do we come here today from Baltimore. Washington and other distant places. Snowden was not an angel. He was a drinker, a gambler and lived with a woman not his wife. You die of cancer, you die of Snowden's character, and godly life, but because you know that had I or you gone down Second street the day or the crime as Snowden did, I or you now be in Snowden's place.

Writing to a member of the staff of the Afro-American, Corporal W. H. Douglass, who has been in France with one of the American units, states that the boys are anxious to return home.
“Personally,” he writes, “I have had, along with all our boys, some wonderful and inrowing experiences. Words are inadequate to express some of the things we have been through.”
“Above all, none of us have lost sight of the fact that our race has been on trial and every man has valiantly done his share, regardless of what we knew was happening to our brothers and sisters back home.”
They said we were fighting to make the world safe for democracy, but that may mean very little to us, according to reports that reach us

JEWS SEGREGATED AT ROYAL POINCIANA
Colored Folks Not Admitted
At all. J. H. Murphy
Meets Baltimoreans at
Famous Winter Resort.
Last week Mr. J. H. Murphy
attended Bishop Hurst's Conference
in Florida. Incidently he ran in
to a number of Baltimoreans "who
are wintering there" including
Robert J. Young and others.
According to his last letter Mr. Murphy hoped passports would reach
him in time to take a short trip
over to Cuba. In this letter he
details his experience for Afro-
American readers as follows:
Palm Beach, Fla., March 1-1
This was the most presentating
conference attended, the most
attended, the most good feeling,
prevents the conference seemed
to make every one feel kindly toward
the other fellow, and this was
expressed in giving gifts. Mrs. K.
B. Hurst, was presented with a
handsome manucuring set, by the
ladies of the Mite Missionary
Society, the conference president,
Mr. J. S. Hurst, was presented
with a handsome work set,
G. E. Carter, check clerk and
chaplain to the Royal Pointcla-
nter, presented a check for $72,
which was later made up to $100
and then to make up the full
amount to $300 required, Mr.
Robert Young of Baltimore, pres-
enting the make the required amount to secure
a physical laboratory for Edward
Waters College.
The Sunday School presented the Bishop and conference with $12 and the Allen C. E. League presented the sum of $5 for books or library for Edward Waters College, and $25 for Mr Cullum with $25 to purchase a bell at Savannah Sound, Bahama Islands for the school there.
Seldom have we seen better feeling prevail after the appointments have been read than at this conference. Some appointments, there was some acceptance or the fact that each had got practically what he deserved, and if he did not it was practically his own fault; and not the fault of the Bishop and the presiding officer who have set greater satisfaction at appointments than at this particular conference.
Bishop Hurst is a most popular Bishop, popular, not so much in the sense of being a great preacher, but as a sympathetic friend of the church as he sees it. It is not our purpose at all to laud Bishop Hurst, but having been in Florida several times before, and having come in contact with the people of this State, I believe he is making a new record both for himself and for the church, for the people who knew conditions in this state a number of years ago and who knew how it was torn from end to end by factions in the church but recognize the great difference in the confidence of his brethren, and they have his confidence to that extent that at the conference just adjourned they had absolutely no use for judicial committee. Now I do not presume to say that all of the people on the other hand I presume they are not, but to escape the clutches of a judicial committee is going some and speaks will of the morale of the conference. The bearing of the men is in every way commendable but creditable in the highest degree.
Monday was spent in sight seeing. Again we were the victims of Mr. Robert Young and Rev George E. Carter, to the extent of another visit to the royal Poincaré two gentlemen. Now there were Bishop and Mrs. Hurst and the scribe. After lunch we were taken on a tour of observation through the BIG House, through the office, the grand dining room the big room where the BIG dance with the children, we had no invitations to the dance we contented ourselves at looking at the decorations. Much to our surprise among the decorating pennants hanging around the big ball room were the pennants representing Hayti and Liberia. This greatly gratifying, for simply goes to show that we are slowly but surely come into our own.
We had the pleasure of seeing the Coconut Grove in action. Mr. Young's orchestra occupied the centre of the floor and the way those white folks danced reminiscent of the Community Dances on Saturday and Wednesday evenings.
From there we took the toy, and rolling cars and commenced to pack up, and tomorrow morning we leave for Jacksonville. Much so, our regret we will have to HI GIVE AGAIN we are down in the south and some day we hope things will be better.
I forgot to say, that if finding a fellow being in the same condition as ourselves helps us any, we have the satisfaction of knowing while we cannot eat in the main dimension of the R. P., there others, and those friends the Hebrew Survived? Yes.
No matter who they are or how wealthy they may be they are all seated in a portion of the dining room closest to the entrance to the kitchen, and are not allowed to sit anywhere. So after all the American man's prejudice is not all directed at Negro There is, however, one dining room where the maids and valets eat, where white and colored are all treated alike, and while they may eat at separate tables there is no discrimination as to food or attention. And the pleasure of being invited into the private car of Mr. J. Wiedemer and Mr. Habibia, Mr. T. Taylor, a Son of the Desert of New York, recognized us and there was a hand shake, the usual way. Mr. M. Danielson is in charge of the car and did the honors. Nuf said. We do not go just now know where we are to go from Jacksonville, but we are out our way somewhere. Good-bye until we meet again.

IN HOT CONTEST
In a hotly contested basketball game that kept the rosters on edge, A.C. team went down to defeat before the Alco Pleasure Club of Washington. The Alco missed second in the Washington Basketball League and they defeated the Armstrong High School three games recently. In spite of the long schedule already played by them, the little edge on the local boys, who again and again made sports that threatened to land them winners, the team has not perfected itself. Opponents were left uncovered on several occasions which gave them the opportunity to put both buster and flarris were out shooting and lost many chances thus poor aim at critical moments. Bakhim's favor at the end of the first half and it looked like Baltimore's last stages of the game let them win by a comfortable margin with the score 55 to 20. The buster was on the firing line as reference, and gave the team an evidence of big league imprint. Tom Jones was time keeper.
