Washington, D. C. June 28.—The annual appropriation of $121,936.75 for the support of Howard University, including payment for the maintenance was put back into the Sunday Civil Bill by the senate and passed on Saturday. The Senate agreed on the appropriation without any debate. Referring to the action of the senate in insisting it, Senator Smoot said: "It has always been carried in this bill, and has taken the same course for years and years in the past. One congressman always makes a point, and when the bill comes to the Senate, it is put back." Senator King of Utah remarked that if it were not for the exception, the bill would raise a point of order, because the Federal Government ought not to make appropriations for educational purposes generally. The bill must now be agreed to by the conference committee of the Senate. High before the University can feel safe.
SENDS NEW FLAG TO
COLORED CITIES
Rochester, N. Y., July 2—Starcona Williams, with whom originated the movement to petition the government to confer upon the Negroes of the country the privilege of naming one of the world war battleships of the navy, in recognition of the work of the Negroes in the world war, has designed a flag for the Negroes of the world.
Mr. Williams says he believes that the one thing the Negroes lack to make them a unit throughout the world is racial cohesion, and he believes that a flag will have that effect.
The flag has a black field, denoting the dark continent of Africa, and a gold star in the upper right hand corner represents the kingdom of Abyssina. In the upper left corner is a crimson star, representing the blood which has been shed by the Negroes of the Congo Free States, and in the two lower corners are two blue stars representing the republics of Haiti and Liberia. In the center of the flag is a white cross, which Mr. Williams says is symbolical of the sufferings and hope of the 375,000,000 Negroes in the world.
Mr. Williams says he has applied for a patent to cover his design and that he has forwarded a flag to each of the countries named, including two places in America that are governed by Negroes, Brooklyn, Ill., and Mound Bayou, Miss

Richmond, Va., July 2.—The Virginians have some peculiarities of speech not heard among their descendants in the Southwest, and on the South Carolina cost, especially in Charleston, there is a peculiar accent. This is heard too, to some extent in Savannah. The Negroes of the coast region speak in a quail dialect, not like that spoken by any other Negroes anywhere in the South.

2. When Mr. Erickson Jr. was called to Washington to become the Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, his assistant at Tuskegee, Mr. Alison L.

It is understood here that since Mr. Scott has resigned to become Tuskegee University, Mr. Holsey is to continue in his present relations to the Principal.
Fear Expressed that "Votes For Women" may Mean "Votes For Negroes"—18 States Practically Certain To Ratify Suffrage.
"A house divided against itself, cannot stand." Lincoln's statement of a self-evident truth applies to the South today. Whether the North will gather in time to avert the catastrophe, no one will venture to say, yet the fact remains that the South is bitterly at odds.
The old question of whether the woman should or not vote is causing the disturbance that is shaking the cracker South like an earthquake. If the solution of this problem affected the votes for women, the function could be expected to come to some agreement in the near future. It appears however, that the right of the Negro to vote is involved, and when it does, the function could be Southern discussion, reason and judgment usually leave it.
On the question of whether or not the Southern states shall ratify the Susan B. Anthony Amendment, the same basis as men, some influential white dailies like the Birmingham, (Ala.) NEWS take this position: "THE ESTABLISHMENT OF WOMAN SuffRAGE IN THE PRESENT DIFFICULT SITUATION. IT WOULD INCREASE THE AGITATION AMONG SOUTHERN NEGROES FOR RECONCITION AT THE BALLOOT BOX AND EMBRACE THE PURITY INTO NATIONAL LEGISLATION TO INSURE THE NEGROES OF THE SOUTH THE RIGHT TO VOTE." VARDAMAN ON OTHER SIDE. On the other side of the question are men like Senators Runsdell of Louisiana and a tough of Arkansas, and the old arch Negro barter Vardaman of Mississippi. Speaking for such men as these, the New Orleans, La. ITEM fails to see how the suffrage amendment "revitalizes" the Fifteenth amendment. It says: "THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT BEING PASSED THE COLORED DISQUALIFICATION BEING REMOVED IN THE THEORY ALL OVER THE RHEADE OF THE MAJORITYS IN THE SERENAL STATES WILL IT: THIS WOULD SEEM ALL THE MORE REASON FOR DOING THE SIMPLE ACT OF JUSTICE INVOLVED BY THE ENHANCEMENT OF WOMANHOOD OUR WOMEN ARE ENCONTINED on Page 4.

Marcus Garvey Reported Bankrupt Though.
New York, July 2.—The Black Star Line, advertised as "a fleet of steamships to trade in the interest of the colored Government," for improvement Association and the African communities League, with headquarters at No. 38 West. 135 street, was torpeded and sunk by Assistant District Attorney Kilroe. He instructed Marcus Garvey, who together with other organizations, to refrain from collecting any more funds. Garvey promised to refrain.
According to Mr. Kilroe who has combined General and his "General Secretary." Any Ashwood, also colored, of No. 552 Loxon avenue, Garvey has collected about $3,000 in this city and throughout the United States and Canada. The investigation was made in connection with the association, who complained that Garvey's organizations were about bankrupt.

Old "King Booze" Dead At Last; Funeral Services Held Monday
"Say little barroom, don't youerry, you will be a drugstore by andby."
The above coupler does not exactly express the saloon's anguish as much as it does that of its patrons.
When old John Barleycorn made an exit Monday night that may be permanent, in an n y B friends, acquaintances may be told him farewell. They bubbled over with enthusiasm; accelerated by copious enduringness in the cup that cheers.
Around Druid Hill avenue there was a bright stream of devotees of King Boose. Many of these came from Washington and other "dry" places. "Tom" Smith. "Bob" Goodlow and others did a land office business, previous to the ushering of the mayor over it. Pennsylvania avenue was crowded with the thirsty and over in East Baltimore. joyful gloom prevailed at the Goldfield and "Jim" Robinson's. It was the hour of twelve a bibulous individual was heard to sing as he quaffed a big shot of hard licker:
"Good bye whiskey, good byegin. When are you coming back again?"
White man was seen driving an automobile in which was a colored man helplessly drunk.
Many imbibed freely who were not known to drink. Many are stocked up for the drouth, and speakeasies and dens are said to have a good supply to them. They will go go at fifty cents a shot.
While saloonkeepers do not like the closing of their business and the loss of easy money, there was at least one who realized that the junior traffic was a glaring issue in the business," he said. "But if cutting out my profits means that a thousand and men will be benefited thereby, then let the booze go. I will engage in some other business." The majority, however, talked of "rights" and "personal liberty" for those who closed the very little pleasure. During the week all these colored saloons were open, selling soft things with the law.

JUY 7th WILL BE NEGRO DAY
Centenary at Columbus Stages Many Attractions.
Columbus, Ohio, July 3. —Negro Methodists in Columbus as Centenary Celebration visitors, will make a pilgrimage to Upper Sandusky, birthplace of the Home Missionary movement to honor the memory of its founder, John Stewart, a man of their own race. The trip is scheduled for Saturday, July 5.
Other trips planned include a visit to the gravey of Bun Hanby, North York Gray," in Otterburn cemetery; to York Westyan University, Delaware; perhaps in smaller numbers to Wilberforce, and possible to Oberlin, where so many found, by underground route, on October days.

E. DuBois, editor of the Crisis, published in New York, has written a pageant "The Day of Ethiopia," which will be produced in the Coliseum by colored participants. The theme of the pageant is the evolution of the race traced through progressive stages of a achievement to the present day, chorus of 500 voles, all Negroes will present the pageant music.

Following the essay of Rev A. J. Mitchell on "Some expensive and unnecessary social fads of the pupils of the Colored High School" persons in the audience entered into the discussion in a forum with which held at Ames M. B. in which on Sunday night.
Mrs. Emma Trunox opened the discussion by heartily agreeing with the opinions of the essayist. She severely criticized the social condition of the pupils of the high school and hoped for the day when the colored children of high school age would have separate schools for boys and girls. Mrs. Trunox pointed out the fact that the guard white of the city had the brown children their youth in the adolescent period by establishing and maintaining separate schools.
Miss Francis Smith claimed that demands upon the members graduating class an enbassment position and cited an incident of a female member of one or the classes attempting to secure money to meet needless commencement expenses when their parents could not afford it.
The principal of the high school, Mr. Mason Hawkins, was very much chagrimed at the meeting. He inferred from his remarks that if the essayist had not existing conditions at the school he should have called him, the principal, in conference, or visited the school commissioners. The public was not the place he said, for he believes that the doings of the school not the affair of the general public. Hawkins stated in his talk that he had done all in his power to curtail the expenses at the commencement exercises of the school. He placed the responsibility on the parents; they claimed, after all, girls they had insisted that they wear such even during war times.

SOLDIERS SHOULD KEEP INSURANCE
War Risk Head Shows Importance of Keeping Up Premiums
The colored soldiers and sailors who served in the world war have a personal representative in the government's Bureau of War Risk Insurance. He is Lieutenant Jay Williams Clifford, of Washington, D.C. formerly an officer in the famous Buffalo regiment, which made history in the war. The importance of the colored service man's insurance is one of the important parts of the Bureau's work. There were 400,000 soldiers and sailors in the service and they carried approximately $2,500,000,000 of War Risk Insurance. The importance of Clifford to look after the interests of the colored men was made because of the need for having a colored man thoroughly familiar with government insurance who would give his entire attention to the task of holding in line these 400,000 returned service
"Very few insurance companies insure colored people," said Lieutenant Clifford. "They do not insure the members of my race given at higher premium rates. The reason for this is that the mortality rate among Negroes is higher than that among other races. This is a strong argument in favor of every colored soldier and sailor taking advantage of Uncle Sidney's insurance offer.
"The Burgee of War Isk Insurance is to be maintained as a permanent institution, in recognition of the services the soldiers and sailors rendered the United States during the world war. The Gov of insurance is offering the safest and lowest cost insurance, and o protection to colored men otherwise unobtainable."

School Board To Determine His Fitness At Private Hearing
(Special to the Afro-American) Washington D. C. July 2—Author of Corporation Counsel threw out the charges against Roscoe C. Bruce, assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools last week, the School Board at its Monday meeting adopted his report but wont a step further by resolution to the colored school's access to direct the colored schools.
The resolution reads:
"The board of education hereby announces that it will promptly decide the question of Mr. Bruce's fitness as an organizer of the District of Columbia, this being a matter within the board's discretion."
According to Mr. Hamilton, president of the Board, the hearing will be on both material evidence, to offer will be heard. Fountain Peyton, one of the three colored members endeavored without success to have the hearing set for an early date.
C. N. Told, who stated that he did not represent the Parent's League, but came only as a "parent" told the Board that the sentiment of his community was that Mr. Bruce must be removed. With such overwhelming sentiment against him, it is likely that the Board will remove Mr. Bruce "for the good of the service."

Alabama Mob Tries Hard For Double Lynching
Tuscanica, Albannan—As the result of a brutal attack which is said to have been made upon a white woman, one colored man of this county was forced to take refuge in the woods, while another was put to death.
Mr. George Lightsey was aroused from his slumber by the members of the mob attempting to raise his window, frightened, rushed from the house and plucked on him a white shirt and blue overalls which they had in their possession and in which it is said the man who committed the assault dressed. The man and the woman of the crime and the woman upon seeing the man fired the first shot which lodged in the roof of his mouth, McMillan was instantly put to death and buried in some secluded place.
When Mr. Lightsey attempted to swear out warrants for the members of the mob whom he knew, he was denied the privilege by her county officials who told him that would look after them themselves.

As we enter Africa, let us throw aside most of our fears and find sea, heart, speech and think with an open mind. Generally, Africa is much greater, our hearts for our animals and indescribable duriness. To a certain degree, we were much less fearful than we are today. Our hearts are borne on our hosts. Durban has excellent parks, with fountains across the sea could be forgotten, a Baltimore has our hosts. The plains are modern, made of concrete. The streets near the sea are paved with asphalt. The ones near the centre are paved with asphalt. The houses are usually painted white and our cats everything practically that deserves. Even televised West street, the main thoroughfare, resumes Lexington street on one of its marked days.
PUBLIC BUILDINGS In the city of the town are the administration buildings—Town Hall Postoffice, Court House and Municipal Building, in style all possessing massive domes and made of white stones. These are gigantic buildings and are the town hall (City Hall) in the Town Hall (City Hall) is the municipal organ, upon the public.

St. Petersburg, Fla., July 2.—Labor conditions in this place continue disturbed, and there must talk now of a case in which the union caught the contagion. The union workmen here are asking increase in pay, and an talking strike unless they get what they ask for, and the union is resisting to pay more money if anyone.
There is much talk of a general strike by the colored laborers of all classes. Pamphlets have been circulated among them urging the they demand equal rights with the white people, and it is claimed the K. of P. society is behind the movement which resulted in many color workers being hired to pay civil taxes. The labor practically ordered the members to pay up, and qualify as voters.

Last Chance to Help Celeste
Numerous Response Last Week to Appeal for Ward of Federated Charities
The fund to aid little Colee, card of the Federated Charities, who is now on a farm recovering from the dread disease called Connopison, reached this week a week of $1.5.00.
Over so much money is needed to keep the $125 asked for in order to keep this little lot on the farm amount the kind people who are caring for her. But the Afro facks that it ought to conclude its campaign this week and turn over to many readers to the Federated Charities.
So this is is the last week our readers will have the chance to vote for this cause. No more the next week.
Last week brought a generous
response on the part of several
members including the teachers of
Robert Brown Elliott School, who
save $7.90. The list for the week
includes:
A friend and wife $2.00
A friend .50

In the graveside softly sleeping
Where the flowers grew weave
In her heart deeply in her lonely, silent grave.
We often sit and think of her
for memory. For memory is the only thing
That death can call its own.
One year has passed our hearts are
She sleeps! We leave here is peace

The parting was painful, but God
knew best.

Over the river the pale boatman has tended
the soft oil of the ear;
Then from earth and sorrow he bore
him
Across to the beautiful shore,
in memory I see my husband.
Whose I loved so dear.
His vision grows so clear at times
I feel he must be near.
We motown for you dear husband
and I show
For the heart that mourns sincerely
Mourns silently and low.
When evening shades are falling
And I am sitting with you
For the heart that mourns sincerely
Oh if my husband could come home
Oh, if my husband could come home

THE FOURTH OF JULY
"What to the American slave is your July? I answer a day that reveals to him than all other days of the year, the gross and cruelty to which he is a constant victim your celebration is a sham; your boast on unholy illness, your national great swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing and heartless; your denunciations of tyranny framed impudence; your shouts of liberty equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and your sermons and thanksgivings, with a religious parades and solemnity, are to his bombast, fraud, deception, impunity and hyph. a thin veil to cover up crimes, that would a nation of savages. There is not a nation guilty of practices more shocking and than are the people of these United States very hour.
"Go where you may, search, where you will thrue all the monarchies and depot of World, travel thru South America, search abuse, and when you have found the last facts by the side of the everyday practice, and you will say with me, that for a barbarity and shameless hypocrisy, America without a rival."
This part of the speech of the great I. Douglass delivered in Rochester, N. Y., 1852 on the subject, "What to the slave is the July" might be as fitting applied to the today as to the slave holding America nine years ago. Slavery is still slavery; theory all men are free.
Until such a time as the Declaration of Independence can mean something beside mere words, Negro in Maryland, so far as the Negro is on the celebration of independence day is to that Frederick Douglass said of it.
To the Negro, the Fourth of July in May just a holiday, nothing more. The Safe celebration will claim the attention of so many, who will make use of the opportunity out into the great out-of-doors where they can run and play and the grown folks to ease.
Today the Fourth is a holiday not a celebration.
"What to the American slave is your fourth of July? I answer a day that reveals to him, more than all other days of the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is a constant victim. To him your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty an unholy illisence, your national greatness, a swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parades and solemnity, are to him mere bombast, fraud, deception, impelty and hypocrisy—a thin veil to cover up crimes, that would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of these United States at this very hour.

"Go where you may, search, where you will, room thru all the monarchies and depoison of the Old World, travel thru South America, search out every abuse, and when you have found the last, lay your facts by the side of the everyday practices of this nation, and you will say with me, that for revolting barbarty and shameless hypoerisy, America reigns without a rival."
This part of the speech of the great Frederick Douglass delivered in Rochester, N. Y. July 4th, 1852 on the subject, "What to the slave is the Fourth of July" might be as fitting applied to the America of today as to the slave holding America of sixty-nine years ago. Slavery is still slavery altho in theory all men are free.
Until such a time as the Declaration of Independence can mean something beside more words to the Negro in Maryland, so far as the Negro is concerned, the celebration of independence day is to him all that Frederick Douglass said of it.
To the Negro, the Fourth of July in Maryland is just a holiday, nothing more. The Safe and Sane celebration will claim the attention of some thousands, who will make use of the opportunity to get out into the great out-of-doors where the children can run and play and the grown folks take their ease. Today the Fourth is a holiday not a celebration.

The discussion of the expenses of the high school graduates at the Open Forum of Ames Church last Sunday, with the announcement that other phases of the school question are to be taken up in the near future, beckoned the awakening interest of the parents of the city in their school system.
City wide expression of the opinion on the new high school building project and on the proposed colored representative for the school board, were the forerunners of parental inquiry into conditions in the whole system.
How much this will mean for better education can be seen from the fact that except for one or two sections the colored people have turned the education of their children over to the teachers and Board of Education and then forgotten about it.
The realization is now gradually dawning that in the parents themselves lies the ultimate sovereignty of the school system. As taxpayers, they can determine what kind, class and degree of education the public schools give. Of the four factors in the schools, parents, children, teachers, board of education, the parents stand first, and all of the others are subject to their control and bidding. It is within the power of the parents of Baltimore to have the best schools or the worst, and in the last analysis where the responsibility rests, there rest too the blame or the praise, as the case may be.
The parents expect the teaching force and the administration not to view as hostile this increased interest and activity. Parents are going to exercise their control in the spirit of helpfulness and cheerful cooperation, but it will be control nevertheless.
\ SECOND HAND WILL NOT DO
While there are many suggestions as to the best kind of a high school the city needs, opinion is unanimous that a new structure is needed. The KIND of school urged must be one that will serve adequately the needs of this community, as to recitation rooms, laboratories, shops, gymnasium, auditorium, and athletic field.

Taking all of these requirements into consideration, it can be easily seen there is not a single modern high school in the city, white or colored, and yet new school buildings in Washington, and Louisville have every single feature required. Some persons, who propose to have the Western Female High School turned over for the use of the Colored High School, forget that this building is well adapted to girls but poorly suited for a mixed high school. Where would the shops be located, where the gymn, swimming pool, where the big auditorium, and where the athletic field? For a building and grounds that will serve the needs of the people for the next fifteen or twenty years, and provide for the needs and for growth the quality needs a half million dollar high school plant, someone not a second hand one.

The campaign for a Victory Hospital-Has been extended. The workers are still busy gathering in the pledges, and this is good. Baltimore colored population has never failed in a single drive this year. One after another campaigns came and passed away and in each one, the quota was reached and sometimes passed by a good margin. Baltimore cannot afford to fall now. The drive for a Victory Hospital is the biggest and the most significant of all yet undertaken, and the work has been done by workers in the main all colored. Considering the season of the year, the Centenary Drive and the $33,000 rally for Bethel not over a month, the response of the citizenry must be regarded as phenomenal. No class of people have met the challenge with such cheerful willingness as the people of Baltimore.

PUTTING THE CHURCH TO WORK
so many of the local churches getting out and looking around for community work to the current Crisis offers a suggestion that it is more than passing notice. It says: "We must begin to invest the money of the church homes, land and business, and philanthropic enterprises for the benefit of the people. Individual ownership in most large cities is today difficult, but a group of people who can buy and pay for hundred thousand dollar church can purchase a hundred thousand dollar apartment house and run it is a simple business proposition and require elementary honesty and ordinary executive skills. Churches can easily begin co-operative co-ops for distribution; churches in the country small towns can buy farms and rent or run the church can purchase automobile trucks to help the Negro farmer market his produce in incident of the railroads and thieving commissioners; even simple manufacturing, sewing and linger are not beyond the reasonable activities on bodies.
Keep the working man in the church, we the Crisis is on the right track when it comes unless the church organizes the laborer so entire wages will not go to the landlord and workkeepers, who chest and despise him, pret, the laborer will be lost for the church.
The religion never saved a single soul longer the Sunday service. Ministers admit that the religion is the kind that the worshipper takes to his daily work, and makes practical. Now we are going to be content very long to give him to an institution that yields them only returns.
There is room for every church in Baltimore to be community church every day in the week. The suggestion commends itself as a working man."
With so many of the local churches getting out of debt, and looking around for community work to do, the current Crisis offers a suggestion that is worth more than passing notice. It says:
We must begin to invest the money of the church in homes, land and business, and philanthropic enterprises for the benefit of the people. Individual home ownership in most large cities is today difficult; but a group of people who can buy and pay for a hundred thousand dollar church can purchase a hundred thousand dollar apartment house and run it. It is a simple business proposition and requires only elementary honesty and ordinary executive ability. Churches can easily begin co-operative buying of coal, bread and meat, using their own premises for distribution; churches in the country and small towns can buy farms and rent or run them; the church can purchase automobile trucks and help the Negro farmer market his produce independent of the railroads and thieving commission merchants; even simple manufacturing, sewing and building are not beyond the reasonable activities of church bodies.
To keep the working man in the church we think the Crisis is on the right track when it continues, unless the church organizes the laborer so that his entire wages will not go to the landlord and the storekeepers, who chent and despise him, pretty soon the laborer will be lost for the church.
Mere religion never saved a single soul longer than the Sunday service. Ministers admit that the best religion is the kind that the worshipper takes out into his daily work, and makes practical. No people are going to be content very long to give everything to an institution that yields them only small returns.
There is room for every church in Baltimore to be a community church every day in the week. The Crisis suggestion commends itself as a working program.
DR. WALLER ON BALTIMORE
G. R. Waller, pastor of Third Baptist Church Field, Massachusetts, told his fellow citizens in return, that he found many evidences of proclaiming the colored population in Baltimore. Waller estimates that 30 per cent of the cities of the city are owned by colored people, while the seventh of a population of 700,000. Those people occupy 100,000 houses, and they are housed in Baltimore than in any other city of Union. All the houses are of brick, two to four feet with six to fourteen rooms. Presses is used and most of the dwellings have marble. Thirty per cent of those houses are owned by colored people who occupy them and man will be soon." Waller found that in Baltimore, the colorist maintain several newspapers, own one bank on four industrial insurance companies, having associations, have one successful bank hold 100 Negro church edifices, all except eight are out of debt, and two quite neat hotel clergyman talked with one successful colorist man who told him and showed proofs that had mortgages on 426 houses. course we are grateful to the Doctor for his words about Baltimore's colored population give us a chance to see ourselves as others see if we did not know that the death rate is higher in other large cities of the same size, we afford to agree with him that the city has homes than any other in the Union.
Dr. G. K. Weller, pastor of Third Baptist Church, Springfield, Massachusetts, told his fellow citizens on his return, that he found many evidences of progress among the colored population in Baltimore. Dr. Weller estimates that 30. per cent of the homes of the city are owned by colored people, who are one seventh of a population 700,000.
Dr. Waller found that in Baltimore, the colored people maintain several newspapers, own one bank, carry on four industrial insurance companies, have 10 building associations, have one successful laundry, hold 100 Negro church edifices, all except eight of which are out of debt, and two quite near hotels. The clergyman talked with one successful colored business man who told him and showed proof that he had mortgages on 428 houses. Of course we are grateful to the Doctor for his kind words about Baltimore's colored population. They give us a chance to see ourselves as others see us. If we did not know that the death rate is higher here than in other large cities of the same size, we could afford to agree with him that the city has better homes than any other in the Union.

Turned from the heavier drinks with the "kick" in them, the public will soon adapt itself to the soft drink habit, with a cheerfulness and a celerity that will simply be amazing. Many people fell for the drink habit because the odor of liquor tempted them as they passed the saloons, others saw liquor, and it appealed to them thru the eye.
Removed from both sight and smell and the taste as well, John Earleycorn is now placed in the position, where he cannot practice his wiles on the unwary.
The people wanted prohibition, and the people got it. They got it a little ahead of time on account of the war measure—which by the way becomes effective only after the war is over—but in spite of much agitation to the "contury, the general sentiment, is to give prohibition a fair chance to show if it is really worth white.
Baltimore had 88 graduates from its high school. Washington with about the same population had 165. The first year after Washington got its new building attendance increased nearly 50 per cent.

Names Other Cities that Have Colored Members on Board of Education.
To The Editor:
In a big city like Baltimore which imposes separate schools for its colored youth there should be no question about the appointment of a colored member of the School Board. He would prove to be of invaluable service in presenting the demands and needs of the people.
In Darlington, S. C., the School Board is a self-perpetuating body. A vacancy existed on that board some years ago, and the members thereof selected Rev. Isaiah L. Brockington, a colored Bull muleman, the Rev. Michael Brockington proved to be a valuable member of the board, and his judgment was largely rolled on in matters affecting the colored schools. He served twenty years until his death, passing away as a respected man in his profession. He was also colored man. Rev W. E. Grillin, on its board. He is a native of Baltimore. Wilmington, Del. has a colored physician on its board. He is well known here having married Miss Elizabeth Davies, at one time a teacher here. Washington has three colored members. He was a colored man in Brooklyn and New York city have had colored members.
The colored citizens of Baltimore should leave no stone unturned in convincing Mayor Browning of the necessity of a colored member.

To the editor of the Mro-American:
That the colored people of this city should have a proper high school education, in absolutely necessary that the honor and integrity of white men, children, in absolutely necessary that the municipal authority, may be vindicated.
In illustration, if there were, in Baltimore about fifty French families with say about 50 children, who would be perfectly absurd if the school authorities ordered that only the money paid to them be invested in the children played in providing for the education of French children. Although there are many of them paid the same common rate of taxes as paid by other children, yet each of them paid the same common rate of taxes as paid by other children, they are legally entitled to participate. To receive their money, there are many of them paid their own right, and then to deprive them of their own participation there certainly be an act of grave injustice.
The case of colored citizens is precisely the same as with other citizens, they provide same rate of taxation, education, employment and closely applied to all subjects without regard to their buildings and are therefore tax is levied for failure to adequately amount the proportion of the population. If it has been judged preferential for the education or coloration of the citizens, but such arrangement should not be by a sacrifice of the equity, certainly with the rest of the community. Certainly, such an arrangement, but, as it is made for the decommissioned of the white man, it should be just share. Either children should be admitted into the same community for them, must be, in every respect equal to such as are provided in the system, from which
This, I make my idea for a decent and proper bligh school for colored children, on the honor and integrity of the white men who are intrusted with administration. If my reasoning is not sound, then our present Mayor ought not to hold the office of mayor, but it would rightly belong to Mr. Will Bligh, the defeated Democratic candidate for that office.
Why was Mr. Browning declared elected? Shandy became he received the most votes not the most WHITE votes but he most votes. Leaving out the votes cast by colored men for him he would have been defeated. If, then his election depended upon counting the votes of black men with as much value as the votes of white men, then, by the same rule of reasoning it is his indispensable duty to protect the interests of the black part of the community with the same measure of even funded justice meted out to his white, fellow citizens.
The demand for a colored, high school building is but a challenge of the honor, justice and honesty of the administrators of this public trust. And since all of the administrators are of ONE RACE, surely they must appreciate the increased responsibility resting upon them.

TEXT TROTTER PROPOSAL
By Andrew L. Jackson, U. S. S.
Carola, Brest France
The formal position and claim
of the United Americans for
enjoyment of democracy under the
world peace agreement has been
received by all the peace delegates.
The document covers
twelve typewritten pages and was
sent by Mr. William and an
accompanyy of the National Equal Rights
Committee of U. S. A, who arrived in
Pasadena in Man.
Mr. Trotter's proposed article to be inserted in the Constitution of League is as follows:
"Real democracy for the world being the avowed aim of the nations establishing the League of America, contracting parties agree to grant to their citizens, respectively, full liberty; rights of democracy and protection of life without distinction based on race, color or previous condition."
The "Address of the World" organizations of America furnished 400,000 brave soldiers for the war, states the grievances of the race in these words: "Because of race autocracy, our color deprives us, at the National Capital or every public institution, and subjects us to restraints of the Ghetto us employees of the Federal Government. Otherwise our color in many parts of the country deprives us of every civil political and judicial right; subjects us to goblery, impunity, injustice and cruteness worse in degree than any that exist anywhere else in Christendom."

I spoke about their native dress in another letter. "We were there when I was there the rickshaw 'boy' went on a strike—450 out of 500. The owners of vehicles wanted to charge them."
The Zulu is not a savage. He understands law and when one refuses to pay the rickshaw fare, promptly proceeds to the Police Station where he does not justice. They recognize us as their brothers and asked me then an interpreter when we were coming over to teach our "brothers."
ZULI LAND
About twenty miles from the city is located what is known as Zulu land. Here, the natives live according to their own desires. The houses or butts are shaped like inverted bowls, made of grass—usually one sees three or four in a trkali or city block. Animals also have homes similarly built, hence the chicken compels a miniature hut. These huts, vowed from a hill resemble huge and hills. The people are not fierce, but smile at strangers and extend welcome to wayfarers. They carry for hunting purposes armour and their javelin.
Marriages are arranged when the financial phase is satisfactory. Brides may be had for four years to twelve or fifteen and the wealth involved. The Zulu have the honor of being among the most virtuous people in the world. They show the results of being true to their marriage vows.

Negroes are beginning to replace white men in jobs about the Capital Building as a result of control in Congress from Democrats to the Republicans. Colored men are to be placed on the elevators and, in some places, are to succeed white men as doorkeepers. Even the position of assistant librarian of the House of Representatives, it was reported today, is to be given to a Negro. The matter was brought to a crisis yesterday when a Negro reported for duty as operator on one of the public elevators at the main entrance of the building. Under the Democratic regime, this particular elevator was turned by a young white man from Pennsylvania, who attends a law school here in the evening.
The Negro, it developed, was appointed to the place at the institution of Representative Leonidas Dyer, one of the two Republican members from the House of the influential Republicans in the present House —Alexandria Gazette.

condition for a number of years.
He scored a good point when he
said that Baltimore with practically
100,000 colored inhabitants
should graduate more than 88
students from its high school. The
principal, Mr. Hawkins, talked
across the speaker and injected the
statement that the school is ordering to the Washington despatch to the Afro last week the number is 165. ) Dr. Wheatly ignoring the interference
continued his speech by saying
that there was something wrong
with the high school and he was
very glad that he had the opportunity
that the parents of the city would
organize and by investigation get
at the root of the trouble.
Dr. D. Grant Scott placed the responsibility of the existing evils upon the parents. He said that it was and always has been the way parents to the children should the feet of the teacher. Should the parents stop their sons and daughters from visiting the public dance halls that much of the laxity which they lay at the door of the teacher would be corrected.
Mr. Lockerman, the principal of the primary training School stated that evils in the school existed in the grades as well as the high school. He thought that all of the affairs of the school should be made public as the schools were public property.
Miss Anne Smith, teacher in the high school, told of the attempts to discourage the unnecessary exercises on the part of the graduates.
Rev. Mitchell said in part, "Customs that have grown up in the city are becoming embarrassing and unless public attention is called to them they will prevent many parents from sending their children to the high school.
"I am reliably informed that the recent class which graduated, nummering $8, was assessed in their class to $9.00, but making what $9.00, we have not received. A class rug and several receptions. I argue that this is expensive and that these young people need guidance either from their parents or their teachers, or from someone else. We have just referred to clearly shows that I am not a preacher who wants the children to sit down and hold their hands. And yet she the average age of the girl that graduates from high school does not think it is right and in the interest of the Christian homes to have our girls unchaperoned to attend dances while they are in attendance in school until one and two"clock in the morning. I argue that this is unnecessary.
"I am also reliably informed that when some of the pupils in the recent graduating class know that they could not collect $10 in subscription to taxes, and avent to them under the guise of going to a class meeting, thus deceiving their parents. I argue that this is immoral, as the reason in deception, that they will be rememberd after the school days.
"What is this ten dollars assessment calculated to do? First, it is calculated to create rivalry in succeeding classes, and the next class will be assigned to discussion will go up to fifteen dollars. Then there must be more dances, and mute deceptions, and many girls and boys will be embarrassed and poor parents will be scared. The school because they cannot meet this unnecessary expense. The intellectual power of the race will be reduced because of the continuance of these social fads. The democratic our institutions that are supported by the state and root out everything that will prevent every boy and girl from having the same chance in the race of the school." As a part of this net work of related interest representing the church I call upon the home and the school to a firmer hold upon this young life. That we might be the best of it for our race, for our home, for our country, for our God."
At the close of the meeting Rev. Mitchell announced that similar meetings would be held in the future.
At the last meeting of the General Alumni Association, held at the University of Howard University, Washington, D. C., June 3rd, 1919 Mr. Isaac J. Sullivan, a commonwealth of New Jersey and possibly the ablest criminal lawyer in the nation, unanimously elected President of this historic Association. And well did he be merciful. Attorney Nutter is first and last, a stammer Howardite. Every year finds him on the New Jersey college year—the Lincoln-foward football game—awarded the Howard "gladiators" with all his might. A fortiori, every year he is greeted with old friends, congratulating the young man of procedure the Alumni shall adopt as shall be most conducive to the upward progress of dear Old Howard.
The choice of Mr. Nutter is, indeed a step forward! It is directly in line with the esteemed and able president Dr. Durkewitz by his subtle influence, infusing in him a sense of responsibility only those who find residence beneath the shadows of the Washington Monument or who revere it as the reaching out into the great world art: things and commanding the whose successes in life are the direct resultants of Howard's savioring inspirations and daughters to arms and building them "forward" with the Howard Standard, which now clear away debris with the inertia and lethality of self-contained, top-heavy, and numbness, having challenged the highest aspirations and capacities of the Negro progressors so far as the Howard Alumni Association is concerned answered by the "Hie" Nutter, known throughout New Jersey as the "Dear of the Negro Bar," then whom poised to emerge from the joins of the dear old school.
Mr. Nutter is a young man, not yet in the mid-stream, but in the lower stream, with enviable record already behind him. Does things? Given a task to perform, never lets go, until it is accomplished. In these stirring times, while democracy and autocracy are still gripped by the capital still threaten to engulf the nation in revolutionary urmoil; while all existence is gone, the class discriminations continue to grow deeply at the very vitals of our nation's existence; and the educational policies being remodeled into nation-wide efficiency, the General Alumni Association must work much to do. How well that work will be done is to be determined largely by the abilities that work is committed. A broad, progressive, sympathetic leadership is the one agency with both abilities and aspirations of Howard men everywhere. In commitment the Association demonstrates a dirmness of purpose and a clarity of vision which expresses our most sanguine endeavors.
Mr. Nutter is the originator of "The Negro Welfare League of New Jersey" and his chief agent is everything which tends toward racial不平 in New Jersey is the direct or indirect creature of this League. He is the founder of a Mason, an Old Fellow, a member of the Eastern Star Chapter; and an alumnus of the University of Prattley, the largest Negro College fraternity in America. Under his leadership, the Howard Alumni Association has to take life and only God preserver the work of his hands.
WHEN A COMMENCEMENT
Since the word "commencement" means to start, it seems to a good many people that it should be "finishing exercises." Some people have interpreted the word to mean that a school done the "objection" life. The real meaning of the word comes often times the graduation of a student meant the WHEN THE STUDENT COMMENCED TO TEACH. All graduates at that time were completed, relaxed gradually until commencement came to be the time, as if it were conferred degrees of grade were conferred.
The word "commencement" should only be used for colleges, and professional schools, for other schools the primer word is "graduation."

Telling Address To Graduates
Councilman McCuinn Delivers Best Commencement Address In Recent Years
Friday night of last Week, City Councilman Warner T. McGuin-spoke on the subject "Democracy and the Negro" at the graduation exercises of the colored High School. He took his text from the two last lines of the following poem by Col. John McGrea.:
IN FLANDERS FIELDS
In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses row on row. That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, by. Scarce heard amidst the guns below. We are the dead. Short days ago, We lived, felt down, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields
Take up your quarrel with the foe
To you from falling hands we throw
The torch. Be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, the poppies grow
In Flanders fields
"The time is now at hand when a democracy, that is worthy of its name, shall no longer be limited to the theoretical acceptance of its principle, but shall be practical in its operation; a safe and sane democracy is demanded percolating every fibre of the the individual citizen and working is way into the very life of the nation. In brief it must be translated into action."
"The fathers of the nation dedicated it to the proposition: Abraham Lincoln men sundung upon the gory field of Tulsa, and the men who ever, declared democracy to be a 'government of his people,' by the Great Rosemont, the Great, summed it up in three words, 'All men up.' Mr. McCauley called the following: 'The Great Rosemont, the Great, summed it up in three words, 'All men up.'
"Is your attitude toward your fellow citizen that of one who sincerely feels kinship with every man? Do you respect the personality of all men as you demand that all men respect yours?"
"Do you systematically cultivate in yourself the fine art of human sympathy?"
"Do you practically, as well as theoretically hold that all men have equality of opportunity?"
"I stand on this platform tonight, and assert that the South has not kept faith with the Negro, that practically for the last two decades and a half, it has been an open, notorious, and bitter hostility to his advancement, that the hostile acts committed against him are but the visible expression of an ulterior spirit, which seeks to rob him of his personality, brand him as an inferior being and leave him a political and social outcast in a country which his fathers helped to make."
"I impeach this in Americanism this undemocratic spirit, crystallized throughout the South, and sporadically, militant throughout the land, in the name of Democracy, before the bar of common justice, and present the following bill of particulars."
"Worses than this, and more to be worsened," he said. "Presidency have some use in the minds of the Negro race itself, have set up the Negro race in the press and are industriously at work, through propaganda, backed by treason on the consciousness of the race itself, a sense of inferiority to the other and death—to create a racial firm crow soul."
"To be a Negro in a day like this, Demands forgiveness, bruised with anger."
Betrayed, like him, whose wood-trimmed eyes gave bliss, still watched, those who brought one low, to Be a Negro in a day like this.
But I pass by, the glorious goal un-
won.

Havana, Cuba, June 30.—Spreading across the Florida keys to Cuba, the lynch spirit so common took hold of the island dependency of Uncle Same, last week and when the smoke cleared away from the town were killed and eleven injured. The trouble began when a mob of several hundred persons stormed the prison at Sun Sevarino at Matanzas, in the effort to lynch men accused of assaulting the soldier by soldiers and two of the mob were killed and eleven wounded. After this evidence of mob law, the five prisoners, said to be colored vodoo worshippers, were shot down and killed by their enemies, who were trying to move them from the prison to a place of greater safety.

THE WHITE MAN DOES
NOT KNOW IT ALL
My wife suffered from lung trouble and last week was a popular white doctor resiling on Connecticut avenue. He had a wife who died last week and had done all she could and in fact nothing more could be done for her. Before being resiling, she had 123 Baltimore friends advised us to dr. Dr. D. Newton E. Samplet and 1459 Cary Street Baltimore, and he came to Washington, October 6, 1918. In less than a month afterward my wife was out of bed. She has gained more than 16 pounds once and is able to to part of her white doctor of my wife's improvement. She would take his hat off in the doctor who could do such grand work. Anyone can come and see my wife, new address at 15th Street, N.W. Washington, D. C.

Scott's Official History of The American Negro in the Great War
A Proud Chapter in the History of the Negro Race
The official and authentic history of the true part played by the Negro in the great World War, written by a man whose valuable experience, intimate connection with every phase of the direction of the great struggle, makes it possible to publish the true facts.
A great historical volume that should be in every Negro home. Gives inside facts and accurate official dates and pictures which will not only no book. Every chapter is full of the very information which you have been anxiously waiting to know.
—This Great Book tells all about the Negro Everywhere in the World War—How He Did His Duty, in every capacity—from right up in the front line trenches and on the battlefields—clear back to the work of keeping the home fires burning; on the farms; in the mills and the steamships; on the railways and steamships; in ship rooms and factories, the Y. M. C. A, the Y. W. C. A, the War Camp Community Service, the Liberty Loan Drives, etc.
Scott's Official History was written for the Negro by the Negro that the wonderful record of daring deeds, gallant bravery and undying heroism of our black troops might never perish. A great tribute to the patriotism of the Negro Rase.
