Mr. Brynes quoted a number of radical colored periodicals including the Boston Guardian, Messenger of Crisis and Washington Eagle to show that effort should be made to put a stop to the spread of radicalism among colored people. Representative Brynes interrupted radicalism to mean social and political equality, and stated that the colored people of his district do not participate in politics, and do not want social equality, either in one county there or even colored to one white region.

Virgin Islands Want U. S. Aid
(Special to the Afro-American Washington, D.C. Aug. 27—That the nearly fifty thousand colored folk in the Virgina Islands of St. Thomas, St. Johns, and St. Troix, rescued, restored and restored from Denmark are safely neglected and in need of immediate aid is the substance of a resolution reported by the Committee of Pacific Islands and Porto Rica to the United States Senate Saturday. The resolution calls for the approval of expenses of a commission to visit the islands.
Mr. Francis, selected by a mass meeting in St. Thomas to come to Congress and ask for aid, reports that the people are approaching a condition of starvation for families cannot support for food, and that they cannot secure land upon which to raise products.
Most of the food comes from the United States. On the island of St. Croix, considerable sugar cane supplies are in the airport, but American ships pass through the harbours. The reason of this the committee does not know, but presumably it is because of the fifth charges at the goal of the St. Thomas mission that the United States some agricultural interests can be developed in the islands. On the island of St. John, bay leaves are prolix, and out of this comes the bay rum for which the islands are famous.
The amount of $400 per year is required before a citizen can vote. Under this only 221 of the inhabitants vote. Natives will only three per cent of the land, and the cost is in the hands of Danes and German agents. Owners will not sell or lease the land in their territory.
The people of the islands are asking for education of some kind, since there are no schools at present, as well as the institution of American customs and American laws.
It is expected that a commission of three senators and three representatives will soon visit the islands, no longer reforms.

PROUD OF MEMBERSHIP IN I. W. W.-SIMMS
Chicago, IL. Aug. 28.—There will be race rides in every city of the United States until the whites allow the Negroes to work alongside with them on terms of equality. It is because the capitalism know they have 120,000 Negroes of white workers to take the men of white workers who strike that they dare refuse to meet the demands of the working men.”
I. T. Sims, a Negro, member for thirty years of the Chicago Federation of Labor, and also a member of the I. W. W. made in the Army, 119 S. Michigan street, in the weekly meeting Sunday night. He was speaking on the “Hace Question and Its Situation.”
Sims is employed in the City Hall and is affiliated with the Municipal Jailors Union. He is a Negro employed in the stock yards do not want to join any union. In explanation he said the unions had once had an opportunity to capture all the Negroes employed in the yards.
“But they failed,” said Mr. Sims. The Negroes they allowed race prejudice to stand in the way. Today the Negroes are thinking along more radical lines than the organized unions. Bolshievism is spreading among them.
Ephedrine, 110 S. Michigan, is gun by the Negroes, is simply about the colonists.” he said.
"I myself am a Bolshevist," I believing in the social form of government such as us, now running Russia, constitutes the making of a Bolshevist. And the business interests of the country are beginning to realize that there are millions of working men who

McMechen's Election Made Unanimous. Atlantic City Wide Open For Thousands of Visitors. Monumental Lodge Shows Up Well.
Atlantic City, August 28. The Grand Lodge of the Improved Wide Open For Thousands of Visitors. The town this week, thousands, coming from near and far to attend their session and join in with the festivities.
All of the Maryland lodges were represented by Baltimore lodges, attributing nearly $00 persons. The women Elks were in large numbers, and as they walked on Arctic avenue, contiguous streets or the Boardwalk, of course, the Hello Bills were right there with the chivalric net.
At eleven o'clock at night, when all good Elks are supposed to gather at some convenient one, and there quaint liquid concoctions to the absent ones and cheer on those present, was not as enthusiastic as in former years, the session being held much past the fateful July 1, which transferred into veritable Sahara. The session was fairly well, however, supplies of Beco and Pablo being on hand.
It was an awful crush that came over Sunday, many taking advantage of the one-day excursion rate. All roads seemed to lead to the handsome home of Lighthouse where the business sessions were held. Right across the street, at the back of the Edmond Elks maintained headquarters. They sang the praises of their fellow-hodgeman, George W. F. McMechen, their candidate for grand exalted ruler.
GREETED BY MAYOR
The annual sermon was preached by Rev. R. C. Johnson, grand chaplain of the Order, Sunday evening. Well-known service were held at Mayor Harry Eschachn, who delivered an address of greeting, said among other things:
"A new era is opening for the world. After the confusion of the reconstruction era I fully believe that many of the old prejudices of the past will be merged into the newer understanding between the men who mediate on the battlefields of Europe bring this about. On every battlefield from the time of the Revolution down to this day your blood has flowed with that of the white man. You are Americans." In responding, Grand Excalibur Buler Armand W. Scott made a idea for a square deal for the rule of the French that the Negro is one hundred percent the American. Mr. Scott said, "We have a record unparalleled in this country. We have never produced a robber and we have never brought forth a traitor or a murderer of a President. What we ask for is an equal chance to rise or fall by our own means or do
Chicago. Ill. Aug. 26.—Dr Cleveland Hall, Robt. S. Abbot, of the Chicago Defender, Edward H. Hull, Victor Lawson of the Chicago Hull, Victor Lawson of the Chicago unwield of Sears Robbuck and company are among those appointed by Governor Dowden to investigate relations between white and colored in Chicago. The committee is to suggest a remedy to avoid further racial ill feeling.
Unanimously elected Grand Exited Ruler of the L. B. P. O. E. W. at Atlantic City Wednesday. Monumental Lodge of this city housed McMechen's candidacy and made a show in the big street parade. The baning brings the face of Grand Exited Ruler to Baltimore for the first time.
It was generally believed that when the Elks gathered in Atlantic City that Mr. McMechen would have an uphill fight. He gained ground steadily as was indicted by a telegram received by M. L. Brown from his brother, Dr. Earry F. Brown, sitting that Mac's stock was soaring sky high.
About 300 members of the Monumental Lodge, this city as well as many state Battalions means to be bound to boost Mr. McMechen, thus paving the way for his bigmoney election.

It seemed like nearby towns were depopulated, so dense was the throng that witnessed the parade of the Uniform Rank Friday. It was an imposing saddle, with the 12 men of the Uniform Rank, leading the way. Just as the marchers reached the vicinity where the aged father of United States Senator Walter E.

Washington, D. C. Aug. 28—Averring that one half of the population of the world outside of the central Power is now protesting against the sorbents involved in the ocean treaty, and that England is suppressing them from hand to hand in Egypt, Korea, and Ireland. Senator Borah of Idaho read into the RECORD on Saturday of last week the revolting tale of activities of British groups in Egypt during the summer months.
Senator Borah used the "atrocities" to bolster his argument against adopting policy to establish publishing England and control of Egypt with the authority under Article 10 of the Treaty to call on the United States forces to help maintain order there. He mentioned the following:
CARIO.
Hundreds killed, wounded, and imprisoned by British soldiers, who machine guns during peaceful demonstrations of protest in Egypt independent leaders. Ten-year-old girl assailed by several soldiers until she died.

The Association issued a statement for the Afro-American as follows:
Mr. Shiliday arrived in Austin, Texas, at 7:55 P.M. Wednesday August 20. He was assigned August 22 shortly after 10 A. M.
MADE NO PUBLIC ADDRESS
During his stay in Texas he held one conference with a committee of the local Branch. Looked over the minute book of the Branch at the request of the Acting Adjustment General office. Visited at the Adjustment General's Office, had appeared and testified at a court of secret inquiry held by the Justice of the Force and the County Attorney, and had made an unsuccessful attempt to see the Governor.
He made no addresses, either to colored individuals, and contemplated nothing.
While approaching the Hotel Driskell, in the main part of the town, he was attacked by a group of six or eight men who stepped out of an automobile, who, after using approbrious epithets, pre-ceded to stalk him on the head, threw him on the ground, started to "beat him up" and did not stop until his face was a mass of blood and bruises. He was ordered out of town.
There was a mob at the station who made threats, but there was no actual violence.

It is said that the Cardinal plans to have a conference held here or at the Catholic University, Washington, shortly, when the question will be threshed over. It is said that priests on the part of many priests working among the colored people, as well as the barbers that are paused in the way of people told behind greetly, and Gibbons has been regarded as most friendly to the education of colored people in the way of Baltimore that three colored men, Fathers C. K. Ungles, J. Henry Lorsey and J. J. Plumgave, have been trained. The last named man, Father Theodard was called in the armbands of Minneapolis to the church colored people in the Batavia Archdiocese of Ireland.
The fact that no colored man is studying for the priesthood in this country at the present was brought out when it was reported that William E. Floyd had left St. Mary's Seminary, this city, and would complete his studies there. Mr. Flood was graduated from Epiphany Apolheptic College two years ago. It was then reported that opposition would be developed against his entering St. Mary's Seminary, but he maritalized, nevertheless.
MISSION WORKS BEGIN...
The Missionary Fathers of St. Joseph from Mill Hill, England, began work among the colored people of America in 1872, their first charge being St. Epiphany. In 1873, they were connected of establishing St. Aphelix College and Seminary which, American youths were trained for aphelix work among the colored people of St. Joseph's Seminary was established in 1883 and four years later its present home on Pennsylvania Ave. opposite Pearl St. was
The new head of the Josephine Society said in 1832 that the object of the Society is "to foster youth among the colored youths". Sparking of the experiences here of the English Josephine order he said, "The Josephine order is not a system of things, however, that the order met with obstacles, but in the obtaining of students for the priesthood. Great difficulty is also experienced in the Order after they have begun work on account of the difficulties of ministering to the colored people, and that cannot be conduited, and the ongoing duties surrounding the work." The Josephine order is said to have rejected its highest period of activity when Father A. J. Slattery, who after left the church, was its superior, and which criticism by his outspoken friend the filipino in theological Catholic. That prejudice is said to have existed among some of the white priests working among the colored people may be seen from the alleged statement of one that his predecessor ran so strongly that him prefer a white whosoever, and that said that colored priests are best suited for the colored people.
In 1883 when the educational work or priests in work among colored people began, there were several datables at St. Joseph's School, two or three were competent, and 77 of whom were colored. During the 1884 diplomatic college, three of whom were colored, during the 1885 diplomatic college, that had interaction, the net result is that 700 priests are working among the colored people.
COLLORED INQUEST NEEDED
In speaking of present conditions, C. Marcellus Torssey, a well known altayah man, said the other day: "Colored people are intrepid artists, and old animations rather than give pain to even one single white priest at work among them. Not all of these of no positive knowledge that just the same conditions given as a cause of the old English Society exists. The Society among the white priests at work among the colored people, and is should be just as legitimate a cause for dissolution of Catholic mission works, among the colored people, and the cause in the years 1850-1890. The work is needed and the reason the existing conditions that are now like those of the 80's and 90's is Colored priests for colored people."
Some local colored Catholics said to be much chagrimed because their number was placed on a committee that will welcome Cardinal Merchal, of Belgium, when the skids

Walter Emerson Favorite For Executive in 14th Ward—Other Candidates in the Field.
When the time for withdrawal expired at ten o'clock there were collected delegates for the forthcoming Republican State Convention in each of the four city legislative districts. There were also contests for membership on the Republican City Committee in the Fourteenth and Seventeenth wards.
Just before the time for withdrawal expired, Franklin E. Johnson stopped down in the First District, those pre-
The candidates for delegates include First district—Frank Hughes; Second—Low Lyles and C. E. Bishop; Third—Trudie H. Murphy; Fourth—John R. Cole and Walter L. Anderson; Fifth—John W. Lizard and contest in the 11th Ward between Walter S. Emerson, Hiram Dickerson, and Charles Williams has developed some speed in the past week. Each candidate is mastading among the voters in order to break the scoring and to nominate candidates to have any organized support is to have who is being backed by the organization in the Ward, as well as "City Councilman Warner T. McCulmin the present executive, in the recent councillorship of his district, both of which are not politicized, both of which are nominated, claiming that a majority of the colored people would not support a colored candidate if he were nominated. Since that time they have fallen in opposition, and Dickerson is the post-candidate, the post-candidate, the post-candidate, why either Dickerson or Williams has the nerve to ask colored people to support them, when they have consistently fought even colored candidates who has run for office and have prized their votes in the 11th Ward with disdainly. Charles H. Hull and Quinid W. Richardson are to be pitied against each other in the 17th Ward. Down in Ames, Arpel county, a number of the Republican governors gave their votes to Dickerson in the interest of harmony. John H. Johnson, Robert Sye, and John Ribbent are candidates for the State Central Committees. John Matthews, Charles C. Manns, James C. Woods, Oliver L. Greene, and New York Governor candidates for the State Convention.

The Sunday School of Tyne, A. M., E. Church gave a poem at Grand Hill Park Wednesday. Superintendent J. Edward Nixon and the teachers were on hand to look after the welfare of the "THOE HYPOCRIT".
While the United States Senate is debating the League of Nations, which would make us the custodians of the peace of the World, and special interest groups, the all-gilthed people are murdering innocent, illiterate, God fearing, like abiding colored citizens at the door of the White House, who believed the material is in their own eyes, but consider not the beam that is in their own eye? Or how almost then say to their brother, Brother, let me cast out the mole that is in thine eye, when then myself beholdest not the beam that is in thine eye.

THE WHITE MAN DOES
NOT KNOW IT ALL.
My wife suffered from lung trouble and had three different doctors. The one she had was Dr. E. H. HALL, sitting on Connecticut avenue. He gave up my wife declaring that he had done all he could and in fact he had been ill for months. He left her couching, 105 degrees fever, pulse 122. A Baltimore friend advised us to call Dr. D. Newton E. H. HALL, Specialist, 1369 N. Carey street, Baltimore, and he came to Washington, October 6. 1918. In les than a month she was able to work for her wife afterward my wife was out of bed. She has gained more than 15 pounds since and is able to do part of her house work Christmas. She is now working for her wife's improvement. He wondered and said he would take his hat off to the doctor who could do such grand work. Anyone who could do such work for her address is 1578 15th Street, N.W. Washington, D. C.

Is not half so important to anybody, except to the fact that it is one of the most widely read and authoritative journals publish in the interest of the Negro race.
If you had the opportunity of seeing the second copy of the Afro-American published twenty-seven years ago, you would realize the extent to which we have grown. Our news features are exceptional, and always reliable. We aim only to publish such advertisements, as will give complete satisfaction. We are not growing older, but growing younger and more active.
We have not reached the end of our string yet. We are aiming every week to make improvements. You may be satisfied with the present Afro-American, but we are not, nor will we ever be. We shall always, in the future as in the past, endeavor to make it bigger and better.
For the last two months we have been in communication with press manufacturers endeavoring to get a larger press, one that we can print twelve to twenty pages, but none of them will undertake to put us in a larger press under a year. We are not going to stop at that, but we are going to make every effort to get a new and larger press as soon as it is possible for us to do so.
As far as Maryland is concerned, and we are mostly concerned about Maryland, we hope to cover every item of territory in it. We shall endeavor to cover the State like a blanket and we want you to help us in every way you can. We will be glad to hear from you.

While the office was on Whatcoat street, the "Afro" was really printed at 1102 Fremont avenue by a German, who called his 60 printing establishment, the "Push Office." The northwest section of the city was just being opened to colored people, and the centre of colored population was still old Bethel Church, Saratoga street near Gay and old "North Street" Baptist church on the street of the same name. The great face of the Northwest section, according to the second issue of the Afro-American dated August 20, 1892, was that "houses on wide streets, with all the new improvements could be bought on easy terms."
Men like V. E. Toney, C. W. Heed, W. J. Daly, Andrew Jones and Frederick Holland kept me and produce stalls in Lafayette Market, and represented initial business efforts on this scale.

Before the Knights of Pythias arrived in Atlantic City for their biennial convention, it became noised abroad in the white section of the city, that the colored delegates coming from the South in such numbers would not know how to behave themselves in the Northern atmosphere, that there would be a good many arrests for drunkenness and disorderly conduct, and that in general such a large gathering of colored men and women was an event in every way undesirable.
Perhaps the rumor was politically inspired, but at any rate it was there and the common talk was the coming Convention.
After the delegates arrived, the tune changed. The doings were published in the daily press of Atlantic City and Philadelphia, and the papers of both cities were eminently fair. More than this, the parade of thousands of delegates thru the city streets accompanied by numerous bands and headed by the bearer of a service flag with 926 stars, brought it home to the masses of people at the seashore resort, that the colored folks were human and not at all to be feared.
"The Atlantic City PRESS in an editorial ventured this right handed compulsion: "The Knights of Pythias marched along the streets of Atlantic City yesterday in as striking a parade as any body of marchers has produced. . . .
"In bearing, in military skill, and in precision of movement, they were quite the equal of their white fellows. It was a high grade exhibition of massed uniformed forces, and the impression made was favorable, and a credit to the race."

For advocating this program of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People before the courts of Austin, Texas, John R. Shillady, white, National Secretary of the Association, was waylaid on his way from the meeting to his hotel and severely beaten. The men who assaulted him were Dave J. Pickle, county judge, Charles Hamby, constable, and Ben Pierce all of them white, together with several thugs.
"Judge" Pickle issued a statement after the fight to the effect that Mr. Shillady was guilty of advocating "social equality" for the colored people of Austin, and that he "whipped him and ordered him to leave the city, for the best interest of the state." Governor Hobby of Texas who was appealed to in the interest of law and order by the Association sent the reply: "Shillady was the only offender, and was punished before your telegram came."
This is the case, and on its face, it seems that the county judge, sworn to uphold the law, thinks he has the right as a private citizen to beat up another citizen on the public street, ORDER him to leave the city, and this in the interest of the state. Likewise Governor Hobby believes that "Judge" Pickle was entirely within the law in administering an assault, and the law is entirely satisfied in making no effort to punish the judge.—BECAUSE CRIME WAS COMMITTED BY SHILLADY IN COMING TO TEXAS, AND REPRESENTATIVES OF THE N. A. A. C. P. SHOULD STAY OUT OF THE STATE.
This is Cracker Reasoning and more than this it is Cracker Law.
It is best expressed in the words of Representative Byrnes of South Carolina in the House this week, who speaking on mob law said:
"THE WHITE MAN DOES NOT REASON, HE ACTS."
"FOR ANY NEGRO, WHO HAS BECOME IN-NOCULATED WITH THE DESIRE FOR POLITICAL EQUALITY. THERE IS NO EMPLOYMENT FOR HIM IN THE SOUTH, NOR IS THERE ANY ROOM FOR HIM IN THE SOUTH.
"THIS IS A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY AND WILL ALWAYS REMAIN A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY."
When a so called Representative rises to utter such bunk in the Congress of the United States, it is enough to make the blood of every righteous man boil with indignation. America cannot be safe for the Negro, nor can it long be safe for the white men, until it relegates to oblivion—the resting place of Vardaman and Tillman—violators of law and order like Dickle. Byrnes and their ilk.
It is to be hoped that the National Association and Secretary Shillady will not allow any intimidation to interfere with their organization of strong branches of the Association in every Southern town. The fight is on. The goal is citizenship rights for every Negro in the United States. A cracker Senator beat Charles Sumner on the floor of the Senate because the latter urged political equality of the Negro, but that did not stop the addition of the 14th and the 15th Amendments to the constitution. And no more can Pickles and Byrnes, by violence and threats of violence, stop today the irritable flood of public opinion that is solid for the rights of the Negro under the constitution.
GREETINGS TO NEW EXALTED RULER
The unanimous selection of George W. F. Mechen as grand exalted ruler of the Improved Benevolent Order of Ellis is especially gratifying to his host of friends in Baltimore, and, we feel sure, to his friends scattered over the country.
The Afro-American wishes him unbounded success as the head of the Order, and will gladly cooperate, with him, in giving an administration that will long be remembered.
The President of Liberia is in the United States on a diplomatic mission and the crown prince of Abyssinia is expected to arrive in October to attend a peace meeting. One of the results of the war seems to be the frequency of important visitors from colored nations.

Mr. Ready Writes Some Poetry
That Is Well Worth Reading.
To the Editor of the Afro-American
Sir:
I am taking this occasion to thank you for publishing recently a letter which I wrote in condemnation of the North's attitude toward the Negro's political status in the South. Presuming upon your previous kindness I am herewith including some original verses which, should you find them suitable, I shall greatly appreciate your publishing them.
When first, I saw him he was just a tiny lad.
With round black shining face, and sparkling eyes!
He was playing "horse" and sat nastily behind him.
Who "buckled" on hands and knees, to hear the cries.
Of joyous childish laughter rend the air.
Of that humble cottage, where all was love and cheer.
Long years went by, and then I saw Him, he was marching away to war with measured stride.
Dressed in Kahkil, obedient to the law.
Dressed in Service, with other dark male on his side.
Yet on his face I saw still, as he sailed.
The happy light, that shone there when a child.
To-day, again I saw him, bound and dragged.
Along the road, by a crazed and yelling mob
Of wild-eyed men, who boldly cursed and dragged
Of how they meant to help complete the "job"
(What then they meant their cruelty to do)
When they bound him safely to a stake)
"What has he done?" I asked one standing near;
And tried to picture in earth as crime so vile.
That civilized men, white men, could ever share.
Indicted such torture, and laugh and jost the white.
(White men who loved their ancestry to trace,
And boasted of the honor of their race)
"He fought and killed the white man here last night."
That killed his father while he was in France.
Yet he was not the first to start the fight.
But once into it he had no other chance.
But other to stay, or else himself be slain.
And to all honest men his course was plain.
They dragged him to the stump of a broken tree;
Some bound him fast while others brought up wood.
And piled it 'round him, shouting it
tendish glee.
Not once did even a sigh escape his lips.
And as the flames leaped up and kicked his form.
One far off would have thought a day later.
Were being witnessed, by the mighty storm.
Of cheers, that broke forth from three thousand throats.
And then a little child lisped a desire to see another "migger" put in the fire.
"How can a nation dare dictate to men.
Of foreign climes what their conduct should be.
In dealing with their weaker subjects, when.
Their own are lynched with all impunity;
Restricted, and deprived of every right.
Because they were born black, instead of white?
Reflecting thus, I turned with heavy heart.
And tear-dimmed eyes away into a wood.
To meet a sight again that made me
start.
For there a one-room Negro school-
house stood.
Where black children around their
teacher's knee.
Were being taught "My Country" 'tis
of Thee"

A Reader Comes Forth to Defend
Rev. Virgil, Pastor of St. Paul
M. E. Church.
I read a letter in your issue of August 22nd signed by "Observer" complementing you upon a rebuke to Rev. S. A. Virgil, pastor of St. Paul M. E. Church relative to an admiration of an article, appearing in one of our daily papers, concerning Race Riots. Rev. Virgil represented his mind when he wrote, as any other person of his disposition, a right to think and to think is fully to take care of what he may say.
Now I take issue with Observer when he attempts to criticise the Rev. in the change of location for his church. As the officials, members and friends of the church desire and they are backing their pastor with all might and main. So when the writings of the pastor attach the membership and not the pastor, for they know what they want, and know when to get it no matter who their pastor is.
Now perhaps Observation might obtain a little more knowledge before he attempts to appear in the public eye as "Mr. Know-it-All." Rev. Virgil has served his present charge for five years and is now in his sixth: the accomplishments of the Church during his administration will disclose his ability for Leadership. (ONE, WHO KNOWS.)

Colored Folks Had Hendinburg
Line on State Street.
One unrecognizable light-skinned colored men met a group of colored rioters. He shouted, "I'm colored!" But he was so light that he was not at first believed. Finally one of the blacks thrust a gun into his face and offered him this method of identifying himself: "Now, if you're a Negro, sing me de Blues!"
One Negro waiter, alone in the loop met a mob of five hundred whites. They fired. He fell "dead" on his face. The mob moved on to seek other quarry. The police called an ambulance and shoved this Negro into it. The "dead" man sat up opened his eyes, and said: "Vell, Cap'n, I saw this was only chance." The whites rode through some streets in "death cars," shooting right and left. The Negroes finally stretched a strong but invisible cable across one of these streets, and the next car came to grief.
A white mob of fifty men was moving into a Negro neighborhood. Half a dozen Negroes attacked them, and fled. The mob of course pursued, and the Negroes finally turned into an alley, leading the mob into a most deadly gunfire by pre-arrangement. Yes, the Negro ex-soldier was there. He did not start the riots, but he was "in it." And he would have been a mighty poor soldier for Uncle Sam's cause, if he had been able to stand aside and see his own people battling for their life and not join them. He could tell of his presence by the terminology, State Street, "No Man's Land," up about 33rd street was "The Hindenburg Line." A machine gun was set up at one corner to groet a mob of invading whites, and lantern signals waved on an elevated railway track gave notice of the mob's approach and told the blacks when to "charge."
One black man, in the heart of town, outdistanced the mob that pursued him, and as he passed a group of peaceable whites, he exclaimed: "For God his sake, where is that City Hall?" He wanted to find a friend—the mayor—William Hale Thompson.
One ex-soldier of the blacks said to me: "Yes, I was in it. I was just a private in the United States Army, but during the riots I was a 'major general'."
Some police officers (white) did their duty and tried to put down all rioters of all courses. But some of these officers were recrents.
Two of these policemen wanted to help five Negroes, so they went home and disguised, one as a woman driving the car and the other as a civilian passenger. In this harmless looking disguise they tried to surprise colored people, shoot them up and move on. They both got shoot—one is dead.

KELLY MILLER
Washington, D. C. August 28. Commenting on the pamphlet issued by the Hygiene Society of Baltimore by Dr. Thompson in which the author said "no accurate scale for measuring Negro intelligence has been established." Dean Kelly, SJF, professor of Sociology in Howard University says: "I am very much interested in the pamphlet on Adjuncting the Work to the Child. My author displays a full array of assuming differences, without proving they exist. When he states that no accurate scale for measurement of Negro intelligence has yet been established, he thereby negates the validity of his own assumption."
PRAYER OF THE RACE WHOM
WORDS MARK BLACK
We would be peaceful. Father—but,
when we must.
Help us to thunder hard the blow
that's just!
We would be peaceful: Lord, when we
have prayed.
Let us arise courageous — unafraid!
We would be manly, proving well our
worth.
Then would not cringe to any god on earth!
We would be loving and forgiving, thus
To love our neighbor as Thou lovest us!
We would be faithful, loyal to the Right.
We would be all Theo hast meant for man,
Up through the ages, since the world began!—
God! save us in Thy Heaven, where all is well!—
We come slow-struggling up the Hills of Hell!
AMEN! AMEN!

To march in a line

Armed with swords,
Thousands of delegates
From twenty-one states.
And a great big banner
With 826 stars
For the brave boys
Who saw service
In the National Army
Of Our Uncle Samuel
I'll say
That the Demonstration
Of the K. of P.
In Atlantic City
Last Friday Afternoon

What I did not understand,
Was the reason why
All of the bands
Of Music stopped.
And the
Crowds on the sidewalk
In Washington and Chicago there have been race riots. The whites and blacks have been fighting. Some have been killed, many injured. The soldiery has been called out.
What does this mean?
It does not mean that we are on the verge of a revolution, that the foundations of the republic are tottering, that I. W. W., Bolshevik and Co., are after us, nor any other such hysterical nonsense. It is an affair of hoodlums.
Americans are not a revolutionary folk, neither are their institutions alive nor tottering. But they are quite human folk, and consequently explode, slop over and play the fool with dependable regularity.
Race rioting, lynching and the like are merely the outcropings of about the lowest and most unintelligent known form of cussedness.
It requires no more brains than a bumble-bee's to hate a Negro or a Japanese.
It is an exudation of the oldest and meanest poison in human blood. the poison of Class. Whenever you hate a Class or are proud of a class you have descended to the level of the mule, the snob and the funky. It was Class pride and prejudice that led the Junkers of Germany and this started the greatest war of all time; it is the same dirty spirit that lay at the bottom of the war of 1861; it is the same spirit that causes all the trouble between Capital and Labor. that has made all the Religious fluctuations of history, that creates scandal in the army, that splits churches, embittertes politics, corrupts society and makes criminal classes, male dudes and female snips. When the Negroes were imported here from Africa the label of Class inferior was fastened on Germany. It cost us infinite blood and trouble and will cause more.
Of course there is no sense to it. Negroes are people, and like all other people they are good and bad. They have been horribly wronged by white folks. It is only about two generations since they were considered as cattle. Since their emancipation they have progressed wonderfully.
As a race they possess many valuable traits. They are peaceful, law-abiding, gentle, cheerful, industrious, funny, affectionate and loyal.
They are vicious Negroes, but the Negro is incapable of the depths of organized and stubborn devilty to which the white man can descend.
The Negro is a human being. As such he is entitled to all the rights of any citizen of this country. If he commits a crime he ought to have his day in court.
The lynching of Negroes and the accompanying creed that they are more bestial than whites constitute one of the foulest blots upon our nation.
It is on a level with Turks who
slaughtered the Russians and
Russians
We have just finished a war, and a war is always demoralizing. The echoes of its violence will be heard for a long time. But all this uglish will pass.
The American people are fair. They respect and are genuinely fond of the Negro. He is, of course, different, but civilized people are interested in those who are different and learn from them. To despise a race because it is different is one of the chief marks of ignorant savagery.
THE BRIGHT FUTURE.
Every walk of life is entered, conquered onward marche. I hear them say, 'Tis God's command, ringing in their ears.
'Tis His hand that points the way. And the conquerors look back upon us their forefathers, with a scorn.
For we sought an earthly leader, which encountered earthly harm.
I can see them writing history, for another future day.
Shall choose the greatest leader. God
Almighty and His grace.
Pray for us.

Between North Carolina
And Virginia
Stood solemn and hushed
As we passed thru,
Until it seemed
That the Victory Parade
Had turned itself
Into a funeral march.
But they told me later
That high up above
In one of the rooms
Of a big hotel
The Aged father
Of Senator Edge
Was very near
To the door of death;
And quiet streets
Might help him live
A little while longer
On this good old place

So I want you to know
How glad I am
That thousands of men
And women too.
Could do their bit
Toward honoring a man
With the sand and grit

Old Timer On Mayor Broening

Old Timer was spied with his luggage by the reporter the other day. The reporter greeted him effusively as he grabbed for his pad and pencils. "Well, boy, I have been going so long the past few days," said the man I "attended various conventions, but liked the one at the Grand United Or
der of Aetna. "How long has it been organized?" asked the reporter. "Well it has been on the map ever since I was a younger, but the white folks seemed to have stuffed it somewhat." replied Old Timer. "Some of the members have been taking the electric cure, and that has renewed their vim. You know I was real 'glad to see them Republics of color in Frederick, Washington and other counties file for candidates other day. They are tired of voting after the white man made the program. And that is what we have got to there in Baltimore." "Is Mayor Blooming to put your name in his Green Bug?" asked the re-
peep "Green Bag." I guess it will be a Black Bag for all of us," snapped CO. T. "We voted loyalty for him, but have been told to wait till after the white Republicans are served," and then if any crumbs are left we can get them. We have been looking in vain for a race member of the School Board. There is one silver lining in the cloud, however my boy. Benches have been put in Perkins Square so that we can sit down, long and wonder what is coming to us in the shape of displacement."
"How about that Harry W. Nice League?" the reporter queried thinly.
"It may be nice, but believe me, I am going to say some things if that league tries to give the cold shoulder to our folta. I'll raise more mobs then young editors of the ved do. You know that like Harry W. Nice, but I want him to have a nice life if he will be able to use, and then I will be nice to Nice. I am doing nothing for nobody these days unless they to something for my people these days."
As Old Timer hustled away he called back: "Be down at the Renert this Friday night with your pencil and paper, because I may let loose some hot stuff to them white folks."
Mrs. John W. Travers and grandchild, Anna May Baker, of 416 Alsaquilt street, accompanied by Miss Theresa Cole of 1504 N. Dallas St. have gone to Dorchester County to visit friends.

You probably have tried all sorts of remolls on your scale without success, and have discouraged and lost confidence in all hair remolls. Thousands of other hair remolls have been used by Seedling Quiniday, and have been paused with the result. They would never again taste their money using anything else. Quiniday is not ordinary. Pomade it is highly essential. Quiniday stimulates the hair and nourishes the roots, saunting natural growth of long, straight hair. Quiniday stimulates the hair soft and silky, and easy to put in the style desired. Quiniday will help to keep hair soft and dandruff, which is the real cause of most hair and scalp troubles.
To get best results from the use of Quinns soap, you must prepare vegetable oils. Quinns soap adheres very freely and is a thorough cleanser. You can use it wet and dry, or it can be applied a refreshing layer to the soap unpaulhed by any shampoo, shaving soap, Sobey's Quinne and Quinns soap, asking for them by their full names.

Swimming Pool Now in Sight
BICYCLE
Mayor Suggests Swimming Pool for Colored People's Result of Letter From Afror-American.
When the lack of swimming pool facilities for colored boys and girls was brought to the attention of Mayor Browning last week, together with the death of little George Tucks, 1210 Division street who was drowned while swimming in the pool, the Mayor sent the fro-american the following letter, in part: "I am very much in favor of extending municipal swimming pool activities and will give the suggestion for one in the neighborhood of Launcle, Division, Lafayette and Pennsylvania my very best consideration."
LEROY WILSON
Riding the bike he won he jin the Afro-American Sales. Contest last month. Lorax said over twelve months Afro's in less than two months.
The following is a reply to a letter
sent Mayor Browning by the Afro-
American last Saturday.
Hon. Wm. P. Browning,
Cherokee印,印
Baltimore, Maryland.
Dear Sir,
ELKS HONOR
Allow me to bring to your attention for very serious consideration the matter of a Municipal Swimming Pool, colored boys and girls of Baltimore, a single place in all this big city available for the many thousands of colorful youngsters, who are obliged to swim in the Municipal Swimming Pool, our boys will Moreover, until we have such a Municipal continue to visit surreptitiously imaged places on the outskirts of Baltimore, we always a great likelihood of a failure.
meets. If we are let alone we will work out our own salvation." Other welcoming addresses were made by Rev. H. P. Anderson, representing the citizens; John H. Wilson, exalted ruler of Lighthouse, Lodge, and Mrs. Hattie Palmer. Responses were made by George W. F. McMchen, of Baltimore, the grand legal adviser; W. H. Stanton, of Pittsburgh, and Mrs. Nora F. Taylor, of Chi

facilities
IT WAS SOME PARADE
The parade, which took place
Tuesday, was the big event of the
session, attracting hundreds of the
many cities in the country.
Lodge was in line,
with over 200 men dressed in
naty uniforms. And there was the
Cosmopolitan Orchestra, of
Baltimore, with thirty pieces, led
by Henry Anderson. They played
some, but then there were bands
up, with a variety of canned goods.
Thousands witnessed the parade,
and not only was the Baltimore
lodge cheered roundly, but those
from Philadelphia, New York,
Boston, Pittsburgh, Cleveland,
Miami, Montreal, mood and other places, not for-
getting, of course, the hometown
boys.
I hope you will see your way clear to recommend a swimming pool for some such place as the vault lot surrounded by Lamade, Dlayette, Layetteville Avenue, Consolida Avenue, Any trail, The Afro-American, Similar letters were written on the Park Board and the Public Bath Commission. Immediately following the Mayors' reply to the Afro-American, he took up the role of a Corkerman, Boyd, of the Park Board, and made plans for a colored swimming pool to be available in 1929.
The business sessions of the Grand Lodge and the women's auxiliary revealed the fact that the lodge is in for the election, and has been remarkably free from litigation during the past year. The big ball on the floor was the dams, was a fine affair, and the gowns worn represented in cost a fortune. Many of the ladies wore diamonds.
Between nineteen hundred and two thousand ex-soldiers have filled out the state registration cards for the Council of Defense, and filled them with seventy Weaver at the War Community club. The soldiers had the idea that the registration would be used to enroll them, again for services in Mexico, others have said that they thought the registration had some connection with the new boning of $200 that has been talked about. For this purpose, the commission sent nearly five hundred or more of the soldiers who yet registered.
TEACHER PAROLED
Wilbert J. Harris, a teacher in the Paul Lawrence Dunbar School, was before Judge Davies in the Criminal Court Thursday for alleged failure to pay his wife an allowance that had been granted by the Court. When he received payments regularly, his parole was continued. J. Stewart Davis was his attorney.
