LIEUTS.TELL OF RAW DEALS FROM SUPERIORS LIEUTS.TELL OF RAW DEALS FROM SUPERIORS Commander in Chief of A. E. F. Thwarts Ballou in Plan to Transfer Colored Officers to Stevedore Regiment. Telling how Major General Ballou, commanding the 322d Division, did his utmost to repaint colored officers with that the men have acquired now to Camp Mendez, officers are being made to hurry colored officers out of the army, officers of the 357th and 368th soon to a large audience at the F. M. C. A. last Sunday. Lt. James H. N. Waring, 367th infantry, told how all the officers below the rank of major were colored, while all of the other officers were white. He said that nobody had to stand from their superiors in France, and yet in spite of this constant humiliation and segregation, colored officers showed that they could win the love of their men and lead them successfully. Lt. Waring said in part, to say that I have come home from France with feeling of intense bitterness towards white men. Perhaps the superior white officers in our Division were not representative white men, but I am here to tell you that they were the scum of the earth in many cases otherwise. "Terminally our Division Commander (General Ballou), who was appointed to command upon petition of colored officers, should have acted differently, but he did. He tried in France he tried to get every colored officer out of the Division, and he would have succeeded except that about that time General Pershing made a tour of inspection and chwarped him, he and hoped, that he would be sent to St. Louis and send us all to St. Louis Regiments. There was no such thing as justice for us in the usual Division." WANT TO AFFEAR DEFORGE SENATE II. Waring said that General Ballon and his Chief of Staff had asked permission to appear before the Military Committee of the Senate and testify to the inefficiency of the colored officer. He said that it was rediculous for these two, who have since been removed themselves from command for inelieency, should desire to testify as to the inefficiency of others. In order to indicate that effort is being made by some white superior officers to get colored officers out of the army, Li. Waring said that "all colored officers who desired to have an official order coming from Washington had been charged in its wording by the Headquarters at the Camp. The order read that "all colored officers who desired could get their discharges on (last) Friday" along with their men." This order was changed to read "All colored officers should get their discharges along with their men." It was only prompt investigation on their part that kept them in the army. Li. Waring said that colored officers were making a light to stay in the service in the proportion they deserve for fear the army will go back to the old system of officering all colored troops. In spite of all harsh treatment coloured officers had made good and if they had done nothing else but endure the treatment of their superior officers, without giving up they had done something worth while. FACED DESTRUCTION M. L. Lee, an officer of the 36th save a history of the activities of his regiment, and his men, both in the trenches in the Vorgues sector were ordered into the Argonne September 24th, made a 30 mile hike to the front line trenches, and were commanded to go over the top with his men. He said his men had only rifles against grenades, machine guns and cannon, yet they carried all objectives. He stated his belief that had the drive lasted 24 hours the armistice, the whole Division would have gone to utter destruction. Lt. Paulinker of the 367th said that he had come home with three things: 1st, an abiding faith in the Negro soldier, 2nd, a conviction that a Negro will follow a Negro, and thirdly, the knowledge that the white man does not intend to give he Negro sa a race, anything more than he will fight for. Capitain Roberts, the new "TV" physical Roberts, and Lt. Howard Steele were other speakers on the program.

NEWPORT NEWS FACE EMPIRE Mechanics Build Ships Largest Force of Working in Mechanics Build Ships Equal to Any in World Largest Force of Colored Men Working in Industry. BY HOMER L. FERGUSON President Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. Hampton, Va., March 13—There are 4,500 colored men working the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. This is the largest group of skilled colored men in the highest paid group of colored men working anywhere in industry. The shipbuilding plant is a memorial to Collis P. Huntington who showed himself a friend to Hampton Institute and the colored people. The shipyard in Newport News is a testimonial to Mr. Huntington's belief that the colored man as the skilled worker—a man who would be successful. Mr. Huntington was told by many that it would be impossible to build ships with Negro labor. The ships that we are building are equal to those built anywhere in the world. Some of the colored men who are working in the Newport News shipyard have been with the company twenty-five years or eight to ten are on the retired list and are receiving from one-third to one-fourth of their regular pay. The successful colored shipyard workers have built their own homes, have supported their churches, and have helped to develop one of the best colored sections of the South. A new Y. M. C.

PORO HEADS ENTERTAIN SOLDIERS (Special to the Afro-American) St. Louis, Mo., March 12—The Poro College Co., of which Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Malone are proprietors, opened their college to the replacement Soldiers of the 358th Infantry, last Saturday, and made them welcome. Dedicated soldiers who were to be mounted out of service, passed through the city, and having a day to renain, were brought to the Poro College. Freed W. Cooper, Kansas and Leon Malone, Kan. and Citizen Hughes awarded by the French Government delivered addresses. They related detail the bravery, heroism, during and courage of the 358th Inf., and how some of them officers treated them. Tours came to the young women who heard of their brothers in blood were treated, but the soldiers said "The Old Flag Never Touched the Ground." Following the addresses, Mr. and Mrs. Malone extended them a welcome, then the building open to them for the afternoon. The soldiers were surprised when they were escorted to the dining room where a feast, a real old fashioned dinner was prepared for them, and Mrs. Malone received a letter yesterday from Prof. W. S. Scarborough of Wilberforce University thanking them for the $1,000 they had given to Wilberforce on Founders Day, and are planning to establish a branch at Chicago, Ill. and Atlanta, Ga., and in June will make a drive in the East for larger IRM LOYS THOUSANDS.

A. was maintained for the shipyard boys and was a pronounced suc- cess. It was, perhaps, one of the best investments ever made by the company. Through the Y. M. C. A. the boys and men learned better habits of industry and learned a good deal about shift. Industries must make better workers. The man who works and does not get ahead simply wakes his time. Suc- cessful people are those who work at things a long time. Uncle Jack has been long engaged with the coke-bin work, was unwilling at seventy to retire. He wanted to work on until the Germans had been whipped. This man has the respect of his own people and the whites. A man is not made of the things a man holds in his hands, but by what he thinks. The colored men in the shipyard, who work skillfully with their hands, rae as self-respecting as any other group of people. We must make class depend on decency rather than the kind of work a man or woman does. The colored people have a glorious future before them. They will learn as others have done that thrift and hard work will bring them out all right. They must become a property-owning, voting people.

WHITE OFFICER KILLS TWO Atlanta, Ga., March 13.—Warren Edwards and Henry Landers, two Negroes engaged in a little card game, were brutally murdered by a white officer here when they attempted to escape. ONE REGIMENT BEEN THE GER Colonel Hayward Recognized 369 Saved the Frored Boys Stop Colonel William Hayward, of the 369th regiment, U. S. Infantry, formerly known as the "old-18th" recently roused to a wild pitch of enthusiasm one of the largest crowds, that was ever packed into old Carnegie Hall, New York when he told the officers of the regiment of brave Negro fighters, most of whom were recruited in New York City. Col. Hayward was the principal speaker at a thrift meeting called to launch the War Savings Society movement in New York City and to promote the War Savings Stamp and Thrift Stamps. Col. Hayward's speeck was easily the "hit" of the evening and, by continued cheering and bursts of applause, the thousands assembled showed their appreciation of the brave warrior Negro soldier, the great war. "In talking to Justice Hughes a few days ago I was as astonished to find out that the people in this country did not know what happened in that era, big (Germany) move on the 14th of July," said Colonel Hayward. "You see, the Germans had been reinforced by released prisoners from Russia so that they had their maximum forces. They had broken through the fish and it just pretty near disaster. This was east of Rheims. The Germans had also torn through the French at Montidier, gone through thirty or forty kilos." Colonel Hayward then explained that the old Fifteenth had been turned over to General Gourdain, commander of the Fourth French Army and that his men captured some Germans on the night of the 14th of July, thus learning that the expected attack would be launched upon their from the trenches, he said, there were weeks when there was nothing be- TEACHERS HOLD CONFERENCE.

Counts Story of How the French Capital—Colored the Huns. between the German army and Paris, but his regiment, the poor fair enough," he added, "because there was nothing between us and Berlin except the German Army." "When the French knew this battle was coming," the Colonel continued, "their forces did not remain a thin blue line. It seemed that all the soldiers and all the troops were crawled over and took position back of us. "General Gouard saved the world for civilization, but he took in chance, the greatest change any soldier ever took in the world. He took his troops out of the front lines, stretches over a front of fifty kilometers. He abandoned them when he was sure the attack was over." "And when this attack occurred he had the fifteenth New York on one enw of that fifty kilb line and the old Sixty-ninth New York, in the Rainbow Division, on the other end. And so, when the German fire fell on these front line trenches, for five hours and twenty-five minutes, they fell on empty trenches, except for the few patrols left in reinforced trenches with signal rockets, gas shells and a few machine guns. Practically all of these came back to us in the morning." "When the hour for the German infantry attack came these patrols set off their gas bombs and signal rockets and our artillery let loose on the massed Germans. The Germans were literally swashed and never got through to our second fire." "But on the one end, they did get through. They crushed into the Rainbow Division and the Sixty-ninth met them hand to hand in some of the most terrible fighting of the war—fighting fit for that terrible battle, the battle that was the turning point of the war." Soldier Smoked Cigarette While Leg Was Being Amputated—Practically No Disease in the Ninety-Second Division. In an address that many times brought to tears to the eyes of the large audience that completely aided the auditorium of Bostel Church Monday night, Mr. stapleton W. Tyler, told the story of the part the colored man played in the war in the war. Tyler was sent abroad last fall by the Bureau of Public information to observe the work and the treatment of colored soldiers, and in this capacity traveled all over France and visited every colored unit. In a clear, even voice his arrival was a reminder of the soldiers provided cheers and handclapping, while his stories of discrimination and jeremying of these same men were distanced to by some with tears streaming down their checks and with bitterness expressed in every feature of their lives. Tyler said that of 400,000 colored soldiers who served in the army, one half of them went to France. He estimated that colored people put up $100,000,000 to finance the war. When the war closed, colored soldiers were in the army, and the first to reach the Rhine. He was with the 82nd Division in the last big drive and told of how the men joke in their dugouts before going over the top and the 307th colored regiment saved the 57th white regiment from destruction at the army just before the war. Roosevelt's Rough Riders at Sun Junn Hill in 1898. SMOKED WHILE LEG' WAS AMPUTATED One particular touching story was his picture of a soldier whose leg was shot off by shrapnel, and who lay in the hospital smoking a cigarette. The surgeon trimmed down the flesh with a pair of scissors. In Saint Denis Hospital he came across 70 colored soldiers, legless, armless, eyes shot out, and these were only a part of the large number who suffered to bring Denone's apothecary "three thousand miles away." PRACTICALLY NO DISEASE Not effective in poor "In the 600 soldiers of the 325th Field Signal Battalion there was not a single case of veneral disease. In the whole 92nd Division the rate was only 1.5 per 1000. "There was nothing to prepare for the attack," he army, yet - somebody spread abroad the rumor that colored soldiers were only fit to rape French women, and colored soldiers could do everything but fight. "The French did not spread the propaganda, neither did the British, the Italians nor the Germans. "In my travels all over France I only found three cases, where colored soldiers married French girls. One of them married a very rich girl, a chateau, and I don't blame him. BALLOU STRANGED INITIATIVE Ballou Calm told me that colored officers lacked initiative and were inefficient, and he told me also that colored men could only go as far as the rank of captain in his division. Another white officer told me that colored men could be a better white host under Southern whites. These are just a few of the things our men had to go up against over in France. As in evidence of how much our boys think of Southerners, out of a regiment of 250, only another their intention of returning to their homes in the South. LOSS OF OFFICERS FELT KEENLY "I talked with many of the men of the 369th, 370th, 371st and 372nd regiments, whose colored officers were replaced by white officers," he said. "Away away of their colored officers, these regiments were brigaded with the French; and I assume it was because the Americans did not want to fight with them. If our boys had gotten a fifty-day break from school, we have come back colonels and majors, and some of those who went over as privates, would have come back as first and second lieutenants. We read several letters from cultured French women speaking of their admiration for the fine behavior of the colored soldier in France. He also read three letters from French Generals FORMER REPRESENTATIVE OF THE BUREAU OF PUBLIC INFORMATION. Afro Photo Service commending the bravery of colored soldiers and cliting them. One of the letters read "they (colored soldiers) not only equal white troops, but surpass them!" FRIXCH OFFICERS CONSIDATE Mr. Tyler said he tried for two weeks to get a list of the number of colonels and generals in. French army. Later he received word that this information could not be given out, because the French government did not want to hurt the feelings of its many officers by referring to them as colored instead of Frenchmen. Mr. Tyler began and endd his lecture with this statement: "After what our boys did, if I should be silent or apologize for the injustices done to them over the past few years, roses would arise from battle fields and pointing the finger at me as a traitor to the race, and I will not be a traitor."

For some time the After-Agreement Group has been photographing our current events furnished by the Western Union and International Film Companies. These companies over the world write with their photo guests in their "out" disposable pictures from everywhere. To supplement this service, the Airo-Merican purchased last week the Airo-Merican for newsroom work, and beginning with this issue inaugurates the new policy of publishing each week photographs of learning persons in the newsroom. The marlano photographs used this week represent the first efforts of our own Photo Service to, give Airo readers live pictures.

BASKETBALL NEWS In a rather slow and unexciting vennion (high school live at the former's gymnasium last saturing night), a good crowd awoken soon in the first last and had little difficulty in running up 12 points to beat opponents in the second half not met with a more determined opposition than their teammates and found themselves lighting up the court. They were only the second team. The fact that they had just the previous night been in a grooving strugue with the Washington team, they accurately accounted for form. The game was marked by the clean hand and poor imprinting on the other. Charlie Travers, who was the official occupying this position seemed to have and was more interested in the game than not know just what was going on and acted with poor spirit. Final score: X-24; Winning 10. In the Washington "Y" on Friday night at last week before a large and enthusiastic crowd of rookers was expected to attend the exciting games of the season. Washington took the floor overcomment by reason of the fact that the guardians before the Baltimore team took the breath out of Washington by dropping in three, successive lead goals. At least 24 of the 24 in front of Washington was 22 to 14 in front of Baltimore. The Washington team played a "come the second," and back to back games for the entire baltimore was forced to the defensive guide, only one field goal and free throw while the Washingtonians scored 12 points for the localists, scoring 18 of tight for Baltimore, scoring 14 points 2. point for Baltimore, scoring 14 points 3. point for Baltimore, scoring was the leading total score. The Alces and the Independents played the preliminary game, the late-night "Scrapy" on the same night "Scrapy" Collins met Taylor in a wrestling bout, as a player for the contenders, Collins finally succeeded to Taylor. Koean and Cawwhorn met in the second being five minutes. CAMILLA WILLIAMS "She has wonderful control. Her tones are clear, pure and sweet. Her expression and pronunciation are excellent.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE ONE YEAR.....$1.5 SIX MONTHS......5 THREE MONTHS......5 SINGLE COPY......5 "INDEPENDENT IN ALL THINGS NEUTRAL IN NOTHING" FRIDAY, MARCH 14th, 1919 the situation in the Fourteenth Ward called concern and sober that of the whole city. Clearly if one city councilman from the town can do good for colored people, another 14th can help him do even more good. Colored people in the city are at least one of the population. Should they get what the vice, they should have three representatives in the Second Branch and one representative in the Ninth City Council. The opportunity is now at hand to elect the Second Branch City Council. The men will represent if elected, the wards get them, in a larger sense, they will represent speak for all of Baltimore. To this degree of Baltimore is looking to the 14th ward election of Mr. Warner T. McGuinn in the primaries, and will hold the colored people 14th ward responsible for his election. For the people of the city, the AFRO-AMERICAN is stand without Mr. McGuinn's suggestion. Like other readers or this writer, he will learn of it for the first time when it is printed in print. Personally, we have every respect for Mr. McGuinn as a private and public citizen. His question, his public record worthy of and his character unimpeachable. But for his own sake that we champion Mr. McGuinn's cause, but rather for the sake of the poor Baltimore. Mr. McGuinn's opponent in the 14th ward is Robinson, a Jewish druggist, who has been carefully well-to-do from colored trade. The City Council four years ago in the Print was defeated, and for very good reasons, presents the type of white man who has the task for the votes of colored men, not because done them any good, but because HE DONE THEM ANY HARM. Colored people of this city have had hardness, neutral kind of white representation in the City Government who run around to get political jobs from voters, and as asserted tell their honored constituency to be good colored representative in the City Council worth a dozen hardness, neutral white RECORDING TO THE REGISTRATION BEFORED VOTERS IN THE FOURTEENTH AND OUTNUMBER WHITE VOTERS. Colored men are due a colored councilman then, for white men in wards where colored men in the minority, and have the RIGHT TO WHITE MEN TO VOTE FOR THEM WHITE PEOPLE ARE IN THE MINORITY. It is fair play. The autonomy and Jewish acumen of Mr. McGuinn is seen in the fact that he employs colored men in managers, who are to be active in making to less thoufold colored brethren. It is the point of view of any colored man openly work against the election of a colored man in the such. Men deserve credited as representatives of the old type of the war slaves, and unworthy of public vote. No voter can ever afford to forget the campaign managers who would work as own best interests, and the best interests of colored people of Baltimore. This is the situation in the 14th ward. Speaking frankly and frankly, it calls for active co-operative assistance of the people of the whole city their cause, and they themselves must fight. Two colored policemen have been named as in Memphis, Tennessee. The organization colored voters in the city is the reason for city with two representatives in the City to make a light for policemen and firemen as The situation in the Fourteenth Ward calls for the concern and sober that of the whole city and state. Clearly if one city councilman from the 17th ward can do good for colored people, another from the 14th can help him do even more good. Colored people in the city are at least one eighth of the population. Should they get what they deserve, they should have three representatives in the Second Branch and one representative in the First Branch City Council. The opportunity is now at hand to elect two members to the Second Branch City Council. While these men will represent if elected, the wards which select them, in a larger sense, they will represent and speak for all of Baltimore. To this degree the city of Baltimore is looking to the 14th ward for the election of Mr. Warner T. McQuinn in the coming primaries, and will hold the colored people of the 14th ward responsible for his election. For the people of the city, the AFRO-AMERICAN takes this stand without Mr. McGulinn's knowledge or suggestion. Like other readers or this newspaper, he will learn of it for the first time when he sees it in print here. Personally, we have every respect for Mr. McGulinn as a private and public citizen. His ability is unquestioned, his public record worthy of emulation and his character unimpeachable. But it is not for his own sake that we champion Mr. McGulinn's cause, but rather for the sake of the people of all Baltimore. Mr. McGulinn's opponent in the 14th ward is Dr. Leon Robinson, a Jewish druggist, who has become moderately well-to-do from colored trade. He run for City Council four years ago in the Primaries and was defeated, and for very good reasons. He represents the type of white man who has the nerve to ask for the votes of colored men, not because he has done them any good, BUT BECAUSE HE HAS NEVER DONE THEM ANY HARM. The colored people of this city have had enough of the harmless, neutral kind of white representatives in the City Government who run around bootlicking to get political jobs from voters, and as soon as elected tell their honored constituency to "go to." One good colored representative in the City Council will be worth a dozen harmless, neutral white men. ACCORDING TO THE REGISTRATION BOOKS COLORED VOTERS IN THE FOURTEENTH WARD OUTNUMBER WHITE VOTERS. Colored people are due a colored councilman then. They vote for white men in wards where colored people are in the minority, and have the RIGHT TO EXPECT WHITE MEN TO VOTE FOR THEM WHEN WHITE PEOPLE ARE IN THE MINORITY. Turn about is fair play. The astuteness and Jewish acumen of Mr. Robinson is seen in the fact that he employs colored campaign managers, who are to be active in making appeals to less thotful colored brethren. It is hard to see the point of view of any colored man who would openly work against the election of a colored councilman in the ward. Such men deserve to be discredited as representatives of the old type of before the war slaves, and unworthy of public confidence. No voter can ever afford to forget the spirit of campaign managers who would work against their own best interests, and the best interests of the colored people of Baltimore. This is the situation in the 14th ward. Speaking plainly and frankly, it calls for active co-operation and assistance of the people of the whole city. It is their cause, and they themselves must fight it. Two colored policemen have been named on the force in Memphis, Tennessee. The organization of the colored voters in the city is the reason for this. This city with two representatives in the Council can make a fight for policemen and firemen as well BACK TO DIXIE? there is little cause for alarm in the trans- ational hundred workmen from the larger a- centres in Pennsylvania to the south aga- nine of the many thousands of colored foli- the South during the war for work in the S alone and left their families in the S workmen came only for the stigher wage in then offered, and made no prepara- tion for a long period.

Some of the many thousands of colored folk that left the South during the war for work in the North, came alone and left their families in the South. These workmen came only for the higher wages the North then offered, and made no preparations to stay for a long period. With the return of prosperity and high wages to the South, it is expected to and these folk wending their way howeward again. They have gotten more than the high wages to by their sejourn of more than eighteen months in the North. Like the soldiers who went to France, they have gotten a taste of Freedom, such as they never knew before. . . They have gotten a vision of what manhood and self respect really are and their return to the South means the end of the servility and humility that has characterized the Southern farmer for a half century. By far the larger majority of the workers, who came North in the War Migration of 1918 brought their families with them, or sent back for them afterwards. These people have left the South for ever, and no shortage of labor in Dixie could entitle them back to the land of cotton and corn, of poor REAL WELCOME The following is the address of Mayor E. V. Babcock of Pittsburg to two hundred men of the 351st Field Artillery which returned to that city this week. "There is no creed or color in our patriotism. This is a great day for Pittsburg. my turning out on masse to greet you on your return we want to let you know that you are welcome back. Now, boys, this war is over. Business is a little slow here. We don't have work for everybody. But I want to say to you boys, looking every one of you in the face, that no flat-footed man or sore-toothed individual that could not go to the front is going to hold your position now that you are back here. "And I advise you to meet and greet your friends, spend a few days with them and then don your civilian clothes and take up that job, because there may be 10 other men who want it. Get to work and don't idle any more than a reasonable amount of time necessary to see your friends and get acquainted again. In closing I want to say in the most earnest words that I can command Pittsburg, in all its greatness, opens its arms to you, its soldier boys, and welcomes you home." In the above address, which cannot be too heartily commended, the Mayor has done the two things so dear to the heart of the returning soldier. He saw to it that his representative came to Camp Meade after Pittsburg boys brought them home in special trains, where a grand welcome awaited them, and secondly, he promised to see that they all get jobs. Of the parade itself, the Pittsburg Gazette said that "the wild scenes of riotous enthusiasm that met the heroes downtown were considered without parallel by many. . . . The tremendous ovation extended the artilleryists downtown seemed as nothing to what they received from the people of their own race in the Hill district." No official holiday was declared in the city, but all Pittsburg was in the streets. They elbowed and jostled each other good naturely to get a peep at the returning warriors—the two hundred. As the soldiers swept by, the crowds were swept off their feet. Persons pressed flowers into the hands of heroes already overloaded with souvenirs, or falling to do this throw them in the paths of others who marched behind. Before the parade, the soldiers were given a breakfast, and afterwards a banquet. Carried away by the spirit of the occasion, the mayor himself took one of the boy's helmets, put it on, and sleezing a gun, marched up and down to the amusement of the boys. There were pretty tired soldier boys of the 351st F.

University, Nashville, Tenn.; Jackson, Tennessee, $7,000; M. School, Manassas, Va., $2,000; Public School, Frogmore, St. Helena; Spelman Seminary, Atlanta, School, Raleigh, N. C., School and Industrial Institute, Home Makers' Club Work in summer Schools for Negro Teens, 258,525. It noted that the amounts given to the Education Board is the work of the Higher Colonel help as Normal and Industrial Medical College is especially appropriation that is made College is the largest colour in the country, and unlike Fitz Nashville, and Howard University is dependent on its own annual expenditures. $150,000 as much as Meharry usual that the real value of the loan to this one school alone can enhance of the gift of the thing as it does on the back of $303,000 for education We indent that the cause of Negro hearing again in high places. The General Education Board founded by John D. Rockefellow, the millionaire oil magnate, announced recently the gift of the large sum of $258,525 for the education of colored youth. This amount is to be expended as follows: Michary Medical College, Nashville, Tenn., $150,000; Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., $12,500; Lane College, Jackson, Tenn., $7,000; Manassas Industrial School, Manassas, Va., $2,000; Penn Normal and Industrial School, Frogmore, St. Helena Island, S. C., $6,000; Spelman Seminary, Atlanta, Ga., $5,000; St. Augustine School, Raleigh, N. C., $2,000; Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute, Petersburg, Va., $500; Home Makers' Club Work in the South, $45,575; Summer Schools for Negro Teachers, $20,950; total $258,525. It will be noted that the amounts given to the colleges total $160,000 considerably more than half the entire sum. This is encouraging because it indicates that the Education Board is coming to recognize the work of the Higher Colored Schools as worthy of help as Normal and Industrial Schools. Meharry Medical College is especially worthy of the $150,000 appropriation that is made to it this year. The College is the largest colored medical institution in the country, and unlike Fisk University, also in Nashville, and Howard University in Washington, is dependent on its own resources to meet its annual expenditures. $150,000 is just three times as much as Meharry usually raises in one year, so that the real value of the Rockefellow appropriation to this one school alone can be readily seen. The announcement of the gift of this sum of money coming as it does on the back of the appropriation of $303,000 for education in West Virginia, makes it evident that the cause of Negro education is getting a hearing again in high places. EQUAL RIGHTS BILLS but and Pennsylvania are faceless rights bills. Features in both states have covers, drawn in many cases by residents who in addition to this state house in delegations to the measures. The law was proposed In the Connecticut assure Negroes common law discrimination against citizen color. The Pennsylvania bill it is made that hotels, restaurants of amusement, bus lines share in the bill, so that it will exclude colored persons from Connecticut and Pennsylvania are facing the enactment of equal rights bills. The legislatures in both states have considered already measures, drawn in many cases by the colored people themselves who in addition to this, have gone up to the state house in delegations to urge the passage of the measures. Such a law as proposed in the Connecticut legislature would assure Negroes common law rights and set fines for discrimination against citizens on account of color. The Pennsylvania bill is similar. The demand is made that hotels, restaurants, theatres, places of amusement, bus lines shall be specifically mentioned in the bill, so that it would be impossible to exclude colored persons from any place open to others. One of the representatives of the colored delegations told the judiciary committee of the legislature last week that colored people were tired of waiting for their rights, they "had lived on promises for fifty years." Equal rights bills as passed by several Northern states in the past have been nullified in effect because of the failure of the bill to name the places which practice discrimination. Whereas the剧院 and public carriers have never segregated colored patrons, there have been many instances where white hotels, saloons and restaurants refused colored people accommodation. It was the spirit but not the letter of the original laws to include all places open to the public. A wave of striving for democracy is about to spread itself over the country, forming in the North and spreading southward. It may lose its driving power by running upon rocks in the southern states, but in the North, it will be harder soon to keep colored people out of public places than to enter a saloon and buy a drink of whiskey. THE AFRO-AMERICAN THE PEOPLE'S FORUM Dr. DuBols Says Colored Soldiers Saved Civilization. The black soldier saved civilization in 1914-18. First, nearly 400,000 black men of Senegal were the troops that at the Marine and the French side of Germans, filled the river with their dead and made the world's greatest army re-cross on the dead corpses of their companions. France not only does not deny this is true is proud to acknowledge debt. Meantime, anti-Negro prejudice was rampant in the American army and the officers particularly were subjected to all sorts of discrimination in French towns and villages; Some villages were posted "Niggers keep out!" Incidents like this continually recurred. A black chaplain with the rank of a Lieutenant reported for duty with colored troops in the north. All the officers were white. He presented himself at the officers' mess and was refused admission. He asked for meals in his room. That was contrary to regulations. The non-commissioned officers must was refused here because he was an officer. He asked them to send him heals. They refused. He tried to cat with the privates. Again regulations intervened. After a day of hunger and insult he was accommodated with a side table for the officers' mess-room. In the fighting units not one-third of the white soldiers saluted colored officers; they were refused at officers clubs; they were soon discharged before their men. In hospitals they were often refused admittance to officers' quarters and placed with the privates. Gossip disparaging to the black officers offered to the american army and by of white and colored-soldiers ended in blood-shed in a number of cases. . . . White Man Says Colored Folks Good Enough to Fight With Good Enough to Live With. The other day I stopped at a small restaurant for lunch. I sat at a table where a young Negro was seated, apparently waiting to be served. The waiter took my order and served me promptly, shortly after, got up and left without a word. I asked the waiter if he had ignored the man to be rid of him, and he admitted that to be the policy of the management, as some customers might, object to sitting at tables with a Negro, in question is so frequented by the well-known protarist. The Negroes are good enough to cook, nurse, fight and die for us, but cannot sit at table and eat with white people. I wonder if this Negro had been in uniform it that would have made a difference. JAMES M. BOYD. South Orange, N. J., Feb. 27. N. Y. Evening Post. Nazarites Were Not Allowed to Hold Services at Church Over Departed Brother. Mr. Editor:—Will you kindly permit me to briefly explain an unprecedented incident which happened at the funeral of Bro. D. W. Maddox at Asbury M. E. Church Sunday, March 2. It has always been a custom at funerals, where the deceased are buried in an organization, the representatives of the several organizations have an understanding as to the cermonial rights. Bro. D. W. Maddox was a member of the Odd Fellows, Jobs and Nazarites. In point of sensitivity the Nazarites laid charge that there was not the slightest misunderstanding between our organization. Bro. Jesse Nicholas on behalf of the Odd Fellows, delivered a masterly oration, Mrs. Emma Hall had a well prepared set of resolutions from the Order of the Nazarites. The congregation was invited from the pulpit to come forward and review the remains. At this juncture we called the speaker's attention to the fact that the Nazarites expected to have their ceremony. No one was present, and when we took our seat the invitation was again extended to the congregation, ignoring us. These actions were so foreign to the usual custom, and common decency. We feel it due to the family and the several organizations represented, to make this statement through the medium of your organ to all concerned. W. T. GREENWOOD, 506 W. Hoffman St. It has been said and I believe it is true of us that we as a race are too over-charitable in our devotion to a country the name of which is a good definition of autocracy. It is true we had a right to supernate governments in order that we might help to save ourselves and helped-France. On the other hand we have given our blood and money with the same thought as other races that we would as we have a right to get our share of the democracy Wilson has lectured all peoples over. However, the white man taking advantage of the situation has merely used us as a means whereby he might accomplish his purposes sooner if not at all then he would without our help. And so we have got to emerge from the mire of disappointment and discontent growing out of the outcome of this war and make our own democracy. We have got to stop rushing headlong, to help the white man we have faced in the war, to unleash of discriminations in the ninety-second division of the army along with other forms of discriminations are but indication of the fact that we have got to busy and work our own democracy. So we stand our own democracy. To spend our surplus devotion to developing and bringing to pass our own desires. J.

Dear Sir, Dear Am, I enclosing a copy of the many pamphlets which are being distributed around the camp so as to catch the eyes of every enlisted man. I don't know just what your opinion of this man is, but I am interested in your welfare of our race through your weekly editions I thought it my duty as a member of the same race, also a member of the so-called Democracy and a soldier of the United States of America to know just what we are experiencing down here in this Southern We are of the opinion that when a man was drafted into the service it was to light not to be worked alines, but to be worked at angles. We have not any objection to soldering the least, but it is a different proposition all together. Instead of getting a rite it is a pick and shovel day in and day out from morning until night out of ever getting out of this burg. I treat that this bit of information with the appreciated by you. Simply VIVE LA FRANCE! "Mine eyes have seen" and they were filled with tears. The mighty audience filled the Trocadero, and in the center of the stage stood a black man, lifte, tall and straight, with a white beard. He wore the uniform of an officer of the French army. A general of France stepped toward him, touched him on either shoulder with his left hand, and said: "In the name of the President of the Republic, I nominate you, Bakhane Dip, chevalier of the legion of Honor." The great audience arose, and the president, crimson badge of the Legion was pinned on the Arab who stood to the Negro's left and the Ammanite who stood on his right, while round about were black French officers on rank on bank of decorated troops. It was France—almighty and never-dying France leading the world again. The day was given to honor the black men and yellow men of France who are proud to call theirs and which is equally proud to claim them. Seven black deputies represent black Frenchmen in the French Parliament. Deputy Diagne, of Senegal, was the first man introduced today by the French to Colonize and the sat in the place of honor in the President's box. The exploits of the black and yellow troops are acclaimed by actors from the Theatre Francee, singers from the opera and creators of the Toulouse and the sat in music, cheers and the great strains of the Marseillais.

TEACHES SCHOOL IN FRANCE Private T. Andrew Moore Co. B. 8438 Pioneer Infantry A. B. 8437 F. stationed at Camp Rigid, France, writes to his sister, Mrs. Annie Moore Haughton of 1408 N. Mount St. that he is well and comfortable being well clothed and well fed. This last has not been the case all the time, but we have been us well. But I long for the day when I will once more eat a home cooked meal. Private Moore further states that a school for literates has been started and he has three classes meeting twice a week. The teaching is done under the most unpleasant surroundings. For at least seventy-five men we have ten readers, five arithmetics, one geography, no pensils, paper chalk or backboards. The teachers are held in the company's mess hall and the men are often greeted with a cold reception, for there is no fire and overcrowds and caps must be worn. By this time all students are discontented and so go on with our work during the two hours of school. Private Walter Jones of the S. Army A. E.

Says Soldiers Must Resent Everything But the Real Democracy BY ALPALP W. TYLER New York City, March 5, 2014 the colored soldiers return from France, landing at no other place without exception. It is not ruled out, without exception, that Principal Moton's advice to them to return "modestly and unassuming." They regard that advice as a gratuitous insult. Had those colored insurgents themselves riotously en face in France it would not have been censurable for Principal Moton of Tuskegee to have accepted that "special mission" to France to counsel that our forces had fought with and endured so that to complacently accept, on their return, Jim-crow cars, denial of rights and privileges as a reward for their dying on the battlefields of France with their blood that foreign countries might have It may be that Principal Moton was misquoted in Paris and American papers but the fact that more than three years after he reported his voiced criticism of his wife for presuming to take passage on a sleeping car in the South, without denying the newspaper statement, to concussions of opinion, he did make the statement ascertained to him. When returning from battle fields, upon which they fought bravely and valiantly, our boys conducted themselves "modestly and unassumingly." When returning with prisoners after a daylight raid into German trenches, they returned "modestly and unassumingly." They were never boastful "never offensive, but, as they have a right to be in war, we are proud of being used to it." They are brave and courageous. Stripped of all verbiage, to the returned colored, soldiers, Principal Moton's advice appears as advice that they should return to France, one of the cities their crosses of honor and their losses of brave comrades on crimson battles the fields and accept southern autocracy in the United States in place of the Democracy they enjoyed in France. The thing I find that not only the colored soldiers and their relatives regard Principal Moton's fortunate advice as a gratuitous insult, but they are suspicious that Principal Moton is attempting to take over an administration whose policy for six years has been to segregate the race—turn back the hands on our dial of progress. A lamented bishoppmoton like once flew about the Wilhelmite army to an administration national administration. Principal Moton ought to profit by the experience of others? One thing sure, he, if he cannot commit our brave returning colored soldiers, nor their ten millions of dismay in the pursuit of national administration—Democracy that denies to our brave, valued, barred and battle-scarred returning heroes rights and privileges specifically bestowed by the constitution. The returning colored heroes, the joint government officers, resent I find. Principal Moton's implied advice, to accept without complaint, and as a matter of course, jim crow cars, segregation and damnable discrimination in the military service served notice to President Wilson that they would not adopt as draft of a Constitution for a League of Nations. Colored heroes from France and their kinsmen, just as effectively, are serving notice to President Wilson for the necessary Principal Moton, that they would right the rights and privileges their service and blood—purchased in the battle fields of France, and not a southernized democracy. Personally, Principal Moton is a delightful gentleman, not a ruthless error which colored soldiers can forgive but not forget. SNOWDEN IS GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN To the Editor: Please allow me space in your valuable paper, which is the champion of the rights of the race in this section, to say a few words respecting John Snowden and his case. After reading accounts of the case from both the white and colored press, and Snowden's last statement, which was made just before his hanging on February 28th, I am convinced along with the innocent man has been tried, convicted and hanged. Regardless of the fact that every thing possible was done, by both white and colored, rich and poor, to this innocent man from the gatows, he was a great injustice has been done not only to the colored people but to the white people as well. Today Snowden's blood is on the hands of those who dipped their fingers to him. He was a martyr whose soil was given a place among the murders. God is just and he will surely and specially avenge the death of John Snowden. The officials at Annapolis feared that the colored people on the day of the hatching violated the necessary that the colored people resort to anything but the throne of Grace and there walk on God for results. In his own time he will bring everything bright. Although Snowden now trial enternity just one week after the condemned man. The thing for us to do is to be still and let God work. WANTS SAFE AND SPEEDY RETURN TO U.S.A. A. L. Lipscipson has received a letter from Corporal Freddie Gray, now stationed with Company B, 343 Labor Battalion, "Over There." stating that he is in excellent condition and his friends and relatives pray for him to have a safe and speedy return to the good U.

Murphy Says Southerners Have a More Modern Building—Masons Have Fine Building—Jimcrow Cars "Damnable" PAGE 4 Palm Beach, Feb. 25th.—Your Uncle Sam is in most instances a very deliberate yellow, and takes his own time to do some things. After waiting more than ten days for our passport, which had been promised us in less than three weeks, we became disgusted and扔 our hands in company with Bishop and Mrs. Hurst, took train to Jacksonville, thinking obviously we might get it there, but it came not much to our disgust with Uncle Sam's method of taking his time doing things. Jacksonville is a very busy as well as quite a pretty place. Our folks here are doing things and doing them in the right way. Shoe stores, dry good stores, grocery stores, fish houses, to say nothing of the lawyers, a little bit of business, one never cared much to have anything to do with only under compulsion. The Masonite Temple, probably the finest building of its kind in the United States, is a credit to the community as well as a credit to the fraternity. While we were here the Masonite Grand Master was well as all the other bodies of and auxiliary to were in session. At a mass session of the bedles, Bishop Hurst made a line address, and the writer was called on and made a few "brief remarks." There is another book about thousand dollars in the building which Grand Master Powell hopes and expects to pay off during the coming year. The fraternity seems to be united as never before, and the Grand Master showed fully 1200 accessions to the order during the year. Many of the works in former years, but now coming back to build and rebuild the ranks of the fraternity. We were pleased with the spirit exhibited by the members of the fraternity, many of whom we met in former years, but now coming back to Grand Master Powell, the crutie looks forward to many years of success in the future. Since we were here some six years ago a new public school has been built. It was our good fortune to meet the principal, who showed us to the teachers, and had us speak a word to the children. We are sorry to say that we have no such building in Baltimore. The school will be tall bill long and occupies a lot a block wide. This building was built during the first years of the war, and with the exception of some of the equipment which was used in the war, it is one of the finest in the country. Sometimes ago a bond issue was authorized of a million dollars for school purposes in Jacksonville. The white prompts proceeded to grab it all or nearly all, leaving little for coerced schools, as is usual in such cases made and provided generally in the south. How many students did not see it that way, and were determined to have their share of the wreak up. So they went into court and got an injunction against the city preventing it from issuing the bonds. The result of this was a compromise by which the colored fools not only got a big approval from the school, but for several smaller schools also. We honor the brave citizens of Jacksonville and recommend like action elsewhere. Mr. Charles Anderson "Charley" as he is hauntingly called "president of Jacksonville's bank, and he took us in and opened his sate and showed us a ounce of Uncle Sam's would have set up in business to do the would have put notions of yachts, private cars, summer and winter homes and what bouts in our heads. Charley is all right and puts on no airs whatever because in these days he would address the students at their morning "et." Bishop Hurst is the Chancellor of the institution and has done a wonderful work in putting this school on its feet. It owes a lasting debt of gratitude to the good church that will only be paid by those in the institution getting all out of it, possible. While here we were the guest of the good Bishop and his wife. Saturday morning we departed for Savannah, Ga. Like Jacksonville, this is a hustling little city. It is. It hown, a hustling real estate district with a large charge and in his automobile proceeded to show us the city. They have here three banks and a large number of good business propositions. So he was quite busy trying to sell the bank. He turned us over to the tender mercies of another newspaper man, Editor Sol. Johnson, of the Savannah Tribune. Editor John took us trough his plant, and like a man, he was young colored lady operating his linotype machine. To show us LARGE COMPANY STARTED A. N. P. Service. Orangeburg, S. C., March 13. The Bankers Life Insurance Company was recently organized here with a capital stock of $100,000 to do a general life insurance business. W. E. Atkinson, R. H. Jennings, Dr. W. R. Lowman and W. W. Burr, Jr., are the incorporators A. N. P. Serytec Greenwood. S. C. March 13. A Negro soldier caused quite a little excitement here when he refused to be arrested by a poitician, who accused him of disorderly conduct. The soldier maintains that it was the police that infiltrated and gave the policeman tussle. When the military police appeared on the scene he quietly went away with them. that the newspaper business is worth white, he got out his fine New Buck and showed us all that part of the city Brother Bowen could not afford. And now comes a very pleasant part of our journey. After waiting for more than three hours, leafing around the station, a jim crow car carried us to Charleston where it landed us near midnight. And now we landed at C. A. and was landed by our driver. At the Y. W. C. A. he saying he thought we might get accommodation there as there was none at the Y. M. C. A. We sought other quarters, they were very poor but they were the best we could do at that time and we were so lucky. Sunday morning we衣ished at the historical Emanual A. M. E. Church. The pastor; because of the very few worshippers present, it being a very rainy morning, called upon one of his local men to usure us as we "must do de wah". The pastor. We suppose the pastor thought because there was such a few persons present they were not wasting a good sermon upon. We think he made a mistake. The church is large and commodious, and has a very handsome interior. We arrived. If the beautiful stained glass windows were repaired. They have a fine organ, at least from appearances; we could not judge the tone of it because there was no organist nor choir present, and the good brethren in the "Amen corn-bell singing. You can well imagine how it sounded to metropolitan ears. They have a War Camp Community Service Club here, but there were no signs of activity about the place, antoine we took entire possession and sat reading a newspaper until elicited time. A member of the club, South Carolina's favorite son, stands in the centre of the public square and one to Genl Wade Hampton, of reconstruction fame. The latter suitsers in comparison with the Calhoun monument. The whole place has a dead desert, surrounded by the ruins and like most of the south, is not only living in it but goryrying its own in its past history. A large number of buildings on its main street took as if they had been here since the days of the revolution and if we never get there again we will lay no charge as any one's door. After pestering the ticket agent for more than four hours and putting him under the necessity of going to confession and assmiring portion, of whatever lies he may carry, during day one, the routman car being ridden, and that there would in all insecurdy he an extra car put on later in the day, we gave up and took what came our way in passing a most unfortunate night between the road and street, in a James crow car. It there had been a congress called at all the enemies of the race in the south and ways and means devised to humiliate the negro, no more damnable (this is not swearing) method could have been produced than the jim crow car. It has and is producing the jim crow Negro, to that extent even the most respectable and refined Negro man and woman is looked upon almost as a curiosity by a large number of our own people. How the preacers of the south keep their religion is almost a mystery. It must be a pretty good brand they are carrying around with them, for they have much to contend with and they have our sympathy. We feel that it occasionally they would feel called upon to express their feelings in a cuss word or two, the resording Angel would simply hide his face and inadvertently drop a blot on that particular piece and hastily rub it out. Of course we were very hungry when we reached Washington, and dirty as well. So we made our way to the lavatory and cleaned up the dining room took a seat at the lunch counter. Evidently the Afro-American waiter, judging from the way he looked at me, was not used to colored folks sitting in that portion of the room. He hesitated for a while before seated himself and "messed" our breakfast skitting next to a couple of white folks, both of whom seemed to enjoy their breakfasts, notwithstanding our humble presence. After serving us our water decamped, and after tip, we could not see him anywhere. Well he rested a tip, and if this should meet his eye, he will no doubt regret the fact that he did not come back. Shortly after notwithstanding the fact that we were the only Son of Him in the car, it reached Baltimore and Union station on time. On arriving at the office we were greeted with "Florida." so resolutely and endlessly one of the most pleasant trips we have had for sometime. Marries An Heiress H. C. Ellis, former student of Howard University, and an officer in the man who married a wealthy French widow and owner of large estates in France, which in American currency to a little more than $1,000,000. Macon, Ga. March 13. — A lively scene was experienced in court here when John C. Hill, Negro, was sentenced to twelve months in the chain gang because a white girl accused him of accosting me in a dark street one night. He admitted that she was "very much on whether a frightened person in a dark street not only could see, but could remember a face. The man protests innocence.
