In One Breath Boston, Mass., Jan. 18.—Chandler Owens, editor of the Messenger asserted in a speech before the Boston School of Social Science that propaganda was spread in France by American agents after the United States entered the war that the Negro soldiers who were coming there to perform army labor were little known. He negroed him even had nails. To said that many among the 1200 Negro army officers had told him they had been asked by the French people if this was true. Citing this as an example, he declared that the Democratic administration, from President Wilson down, was no friend of the Negro race. He claimed that the great ambition of the Democrats in Congress was to pass a Judaean law for washing cars before the power of power and also to make it illegal for whites and blacks to marry. It was especially irritating, he said, to hear college professors apply the term "darker" to a Negro. He protested against southern plantation melodies and Negro folk songs. Col. House, adviser of President Wilson, was a leader of the southern hourbours, he declared in Texas, the speaker characterized as most vicious, indecent, undignified and ridiculous, in its treatment of the Negroes. The 417,000 Negro soldiers in the war expected equal consideration as free citizens as a reward upon "their demobilization," and their failure to obtain this, he declared, was one of the causes of the riots. He announced himself himself in sympathy with industrial unions, which so practised by the L. W. W., but declared the A. P. of L. to be "backward, reactionary, narrow-minded and grave."

SNOW HILL MAN GETS FREEDOM Judge Houlier Decides That 70 Year Sentence Gives Laws Ten Years Ago Was Illegal. Because he was attracted to Eugene O'Donnell, a white attorney, who is making a slight to clear Fountain of the charge of rape, and because he wrote Mr. O'Donnell telling him of his wrongful imprisonment, Samuel Laws, age 28 of Snow Hill, Maryland is today a 100-year old. Ten years ago when Laws was 18 years old he throw bricks at the house of a white family of three and ran away. He was arrested later, and on the charge of attempt to assault one of the women in the house, sixteen years later. Sixty years in the penitentiary were added on the charge if attempting to kill each of the occupants of the house. When Laws wrote to Mr. O'Donnell, the attorney took up his case at once by procuring a writ of habeas corpus, which was heard by Judge Houlier. Mr. O'Donnell argued that the sentence was a "product of individual passion" and not a "individual act." The sentence also violated the constitutional provisions forbidding unusual punishment. The prisoner committed one act not four as the late Judge Toadrine and Judge Houlier granted the writ and Laws, now said to be somewhat feeble minded, was allowed to go free.

Trampled on Rights of Haitians Says Customs Returns Have Been Applied to Paying White Officials High Salaries Instead of Reducing Indebtedness. Washington, January 15.—Rev. Dr. John Van Schieck, the white president of the Board of Education, was refused permission to speak in two colored churches Tuesday night because he opposed the Parents' League in its efforts to have Roscoe C. Bruce removed as assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools. Dr. Van Schieck has been nominated by President Wilson as a member of the Board of District Commis. and has been appointed the Senate a being opposed by a large number of citizens, including influential colored residents. The president of the Board of Education first went to Metropolitan A. M. E. Church to address Bethel Literary and Historical Society and try to right with the colored people, especially those connected with the Parents' League. The trustee told him that because of his attitude in the Bruce matter he could not speak there. He met a similar refusal the same evening at the Memorial Congregational Church, where he was awaited him. Dr. Van Schieck was quite popular among the colored people until he took sides Washington, D. C., Jan. 18. How Uncle Sam in his hard heeled, high topped hops marched into the little Negro Republic of Haiti, and trampled its sovereignty under foot, was told by Bishop John Hurst in a paper read before the Negro Academy recently. According to Bishop Hurst "In June, 1913, taking advantage of the military fall between the forces of President Sam and organized foes, the President of the United States sent Mr. Paul Fuller to Port-au-Prince with powers to negotiate a treaty placing the control of customs in Haiti under the control of the American Government. The financial aid did not result in further into such a treaty, but made counter proposals which the American Government deemed unsatisfactory. These proposals, it is said, were to the effect that the State Department should use its influence with the National City Bank to obtain immediately a loan of $2,000,000 for a term of five years, and then favor with the State Department the merchants of Port-au-Prince, among him a number of Germans, covered the loan, which seemed to have aroused the fire of the American Government." He then said that United States marines were soon landed in Haiti and further military resistance from the natives martial law was proclaimed. The press was placed under censorship," said Bishop Hurst, "public meetings were prohibited and Americans were placed in charge of the customs. Men of international reputation were dragged from homes before marshals marched them dressed express themselves openly against this high-handed procedure." He then asserted that white Americans were appointed to take charge of the collection of Haitian customs, at salaries ranging from $3,000 to $12,000 a year, despite the fact that he minded Americans urged that American colored men of ability be given the positions. He took up the beginning of this Government's plans to place Haiti under its protectorate, giving as a reason therefore that Haitians owed $21,000,000 to European Governments. By a system of British Bishops, the Haitian Government was always able to meet its creditors. "Because of the faith, kept with her foreign creditors," he went on to say, "Haiti had become a favored client in Europe and her loan Stage Manager Shot to Death During Show at Howard Theatre against those who wanted Mr. Bruce put out of the schools, and wrote a letter in which he charactered the colored members of the Parents' League as "one third child, one third savage, and one third shall grave men." Dr. C. M. Schiek, pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church and Rev. H. J. Callis, pastor of the A. M. E. Zion Church are especially active in opposing Dr. Van Schiek. Senator Sherman declared that the Congregational Committee will go into all the phases of the charges made against Assistant Superintendent. R. C. Bruce re-ently. Mr. Pountain Pyton, color merger of the School Board, testified that Dr. Van Schiek to him "Peyton I do not want you to go into the Bruce case in a fighting spirit. If you will join with Dr. Leonard in a unanimous report, I will find a way to ease Bruce out of the system." Witnesses for Rev. Van Schiek included Rev. D. E. Wiseman, Dr. William H. Wilson, Mrs. H.

It is pointed out by the District Attorney's office that the Communist Party has given colored folk a bomb making machine and instructed them in the art of making deadly explosive bombs. Another part of the plan to arouse the general public against the present capitalistic system of government is said to be seen in the fact that firearms have been passed out to colored workers in some cases. The main trouble with the Communist Party is that they are said to be making common cause with the Negroes and taking up the Negro's fight against, oppression. According to the party program, oppression of the Negro is at hot, simply a means to get cheap labor, and thereby keep the work, in charge of the use of capitalists, to be done by the communists, the Communists are trying to organize colored folk, and unite them with all class conscious workers.

Colored Catholic Priesthood Libelled Holy Ghost Rector Declares That Colored Priest Has Never Been A Success Anywhere In The World New York, Jan. 15.—That the reason why it is impossible to have colored men trained for the priesthood in the Catholic Church is the opposition of the United Catholic Councils is made plain in a letter printed in the current issue of the CRISIS. George Joseph MacWilliam, a colored man living in Philadelphia when the council held his church, St. Joseph's, applied to the Holy Ghost Fathers at Cornwell, Pa., and received this reply: "We have no colored students, and are not going to take any. Almighty God does not want a colored man for a priest. He is absolutely unfit morally, physically and mentally. Prejudice, sentiment and authority are against it, and one with a sound mind ought to know that God does not want them and white people can't use them. This is the decision of the United Catholic Councils and if you do not accept it you are vain." When asked about some of the colored Catholic priests already at worn, the reply was, "A colored man has not been successful as a priest anywhere in the world, not even in Africa." Mr. MacWilliam says he has spent eight years trying to get a chance to serve in the church and in this time, he has made pleas to Cardinals, and Arch-Bishops, and to the Josephite Father in Baltimore. The Josephite Fathers in Baltimore agreed to accept the application of a colored man providing he would pay $250 per year tuition atlantic white boys were being received free of any tuition. Finally he would pay $250 annually for MacWilliam and then the Revered Superior Justin McCarthy refused him admission. In making an appeal to the Apostolic Delegate in Washington, John Bonzune, a reply came that this matter was beyond the scope of his providence and power. Mr. MacWilliam ends his letter that the Catholic Church is making inay effort to teach Negro in ignorance.

Hotel For Atlantic PRICE 5 CENTS Annual Report of Supervisor of Colored Schools in Maryland Commends Workers. That "a very great number of persons, so called teachers, in charge of colored schools, whose scholarship is so meagre that they are only keeping the schools open—nothing more," is the statement of State Supervisor of colored schools in Maryland, J. W. Huffington, in his annual report to State Superintendent just issued. As a document setting for the state schools, outside of Baltimore and the progress in this last year, the report what is regarded as the best report ever made on supervision of colored schools. The report states that of the 710 colored teachers in Maryland, 112 had no certificate and 80 temporary certificates, which means that nearly one fourth of the children in the State were berry tangled. The teachers were not appointed at all because no teacher of any kind could be found. Remedy of this condition, will be found, according to the report in enlarging the Normal School at Bowie, whereby at least 70 teachers a year can be trained. The teachers to attendance at summer school and paying the qualified teachers a higher wage. The drastic action of closing up schools where there are incompetent teachers is suggested as a means of bringing the community to a sense of its obligation. Searing the present facilities of teacher training in the State, the report states that Maryland has never trained one eighth of its teachers, that Maryland has been satisfied to let anybody teach its schools, and that right now, facilities are not available to train one of the teachers this State needs.

This week his candidacy for the office of bishop in the A. M. E. Church, subject to the will of the General Conference church meets in St. Mary, May 1999. In the twenty-seven years of his ministry Rev. Brooks has been one of the outstanding pastors of the country. He has served more than 6,000 members, gold off of the mortgages of St. James and St. Teters Churches in Minneapolis; St. Stephen Church, Chicago; St. Neshan Church, Chicago; St. Louis, Mo., and Bedford Church in this city. In St. Louis and in Baltimore, he described the church world by staging great gables in which stung, ransacked at $25,000, and one time church raised purposes. Nothing like this had ever before been at, captured in church finance. done at Pathel Church, this city of which he is now pastor. Here he directed the great $22,000 milt. ly, and for all purpose of Pathel work raised the colossal sum of $100,000 in three years. The mortgage of $90,000 on Pathel Church now paid in full, but the church building has been renovated. Not only as a great director of finance, has Dr. Brooks stood out in church leadership, and has ministered and pastor, he has won the confidence and esteem of thousands of Baltimore church members have been added to the church roll during his pastorate. If elected to the high office of pastor, he will work toward (1) greater expansion in the church; (2-Enforcement of Foreign Missions and Borders; (3) better provisions for windows and orphans of deceased pastors and for supernumerary ministers; (4) measures according to law; (5) deeper interest in the work of young people; (6) larger repurposing of church buildings; (7) better bodies of the church. Decking that he had refused to accept an increase in salary from his trustees, Rev. John A. Holmes, pastor of St. John's Episcopal Church, a big surprise into Do. M. E. Ministers' Meeting at Sharp Street Memorial M. E. "Church Monday," where they were discussing the need of increased salaries to meet the high cost of living. Rev. C. E. Holmes said, that it would be useful to discuss the needs of churches that their pastors needed more to live on them. They can undertake a dress suit last them, or they can go on Sunday and special occasions. They do not need to wear white shirts but on those special occasions. We have to be dressed up on Sunday and special occasions. They work愈多 more than I do. Rev. Holmes' son is a student. De. Holmes told the meeting that he had never asked for an increase in salary in his life. He showed that he was earning his salary, he would be well taken care of by his congregation. Who, even refused an interest, he concluded. Rev. J. C. Allen made a plea for a ministry that was consecrated, a memorial side of life. He declared that the divinely-called minister never gave a that about salary that he had never heard of a minister that considered his call to divine that he hesitated about no. 2500 appointments carrying a larger salary. Revs. S. A. Virgin, Victor Johnson, E. F. Cornish, Ernest Lyon, and E. F. Morris were among the other speakers.

Centenary Drive. That the colored membership of the Methodist Episcopal Church has raised over $100,000 toward the $12,000,000 Century Fund, the information that Rev. W. A. C. Hughes, who is in charge of New Orleans area for raising the money, has given out. The big sum has been raised when the past eight months is regarded as the achievement of the centennial campaign. (U.S.) The work in the New Orleans area covers six conferences—the Texas, the Northeast, the South, Alabama and Alabama. The total amount raised in the area by the colored churches for the generals denominational needs in the year previous to the launching of the work, during the previous eight months, has been raised in the New Orleans area. Rev. Dr. J. C. Sheehill, who has charge of the colored congregations in the Chattanooga area, reports having raised $100,000 in charge of one churches in the Atlantic district has secured $80,000. The Washington 'and Delaware Conference have raised together A foremerer of the successful efforts of the membership game on last Easter Sunday, the Church of New Orleans area had down $22,000 at New Orleans University. The stimulating effects of the contemny movement is permeating many of the churches in New Orleans, which has answered $1,600, missed $2,200 and has now increased the amount it will give next year to $1,000. An article in the New Orleans helped local church collections is indicated by the fact that the classroom collections at the First church have mounted to $150 weekly conferences are gratifying to the leaders in the denomination. The big financial success of the campaign has not made the denominational leadership the sole role of the church, and a campaign to add 20,000 members was launched watchmeeting night. For the purposes of the campaign, the church has been divided into twenty areas. Dr. Husches fought for the idea to have colored churchlook after their own interests. Dr. Thirskid was detained from his work as field secretary of the Board of Home Mission and Church Extension and Sharp Street Memorial M. R. Church. Dr. Husks is a former pastor of He filled the pulpit at Metropolitan M. E. Church Sunday morning. In speaking to a reporter at the Mr. Anderson place, he said: "My experiences in the South have been interesting and informative. I went into New Orleans a stranger and found cordial co-operation everywhere, the spirit with which the work of the campaign was a revelation to many, and indicates growing responsibility."

BISHOP BECKETT EXPLAINS HIMSELF Bishop W. W. Beckett writes the Afro-American giving the following version of his address before the local A. M. E. Ministers Meeting recently: an appeal to sending missionaries to foreign fields under the present conditions. "M. present missionaries are selected without any regard for their abilities to live and work in the present. And that without which they are neither able to live and work in the present. "What the church most needed was a training school for missionaries or at least to establish a department in some one of our schools for that "That the American Negro had the opportunity to introduce himself to the people in Europe during the last century," he said. "I did not say 'Europeans were Freightland.' Because I did not see any of them running." A Donkey Party A donkey nurse was held at Calvary A. M. B.

FRIDAY, JAN, 16, 1920 only thing that a colored citizen thank God for, that to him of making it into a better state The only thing that a colored citizen in Maryland has to thank God for, is, that to him is given the chance of making it into a better state. THREE PARTS r in his famous history declaration divided into three parts. The day Mr. Chandler Owen a Negro Academy meeting in which that colored leaders are divided, first, or "old crowd politicians" WING, and claimed that they strong and responsible for all w is he to. "Having been bound are not worthy of leadership," the second group, he placed the enemy, labelling them as the CEE AGENCIA. These two men were in third group he called the "LEFT A NEW CROWD NEGRO, not but especially open to the teach and socialism." But considering how far wrong, r. Owen is in his definitions a wideless appears, that it must he "nerve" to board the teach tell them to their teeth, that but "Vacillating." Caesar in his famous history declared that "All Gaul is divided into three parts. The other day Mr. Chandler Owen speaking be- fore the Negro Academy meeting in Washington, declared that colored leaders are divided into three parts. The first, or "old crowd politicians" he called the "RIGHT WING," and claimed that they were abso- lately wrong and responsible for all the lills the race now is heir to. "Having been bought and paid for; they are not worthy of leadership." In the second group, he placed the members of the Academy, labelling them as the CENTRE or the INTELLIGENCIA. These too were not worthy of leadership, because the honest, they were vacill- ing." The third group he called the "LEFT WING," the so called NEW CROWD NEGRO, not tied to any party, but especially open to the teachings of labor unionism and socialism. Without considering how far wrong, or how far right, Mr. Owen is in his definitions and divisions. It nevertheless appears, that it must have required considerable "nerve" to board the Academy in their den and tell them to their teeth, that they were "Honest" but "Vacillating." A SOLDIER MEMORIAL that the memory of those who fell in France in 1715 may not perch from the earth. the memory of those who fell may not perish from the earth, two years have passed since with the praises of the spies of Maryland's lighting colored Nearly two years have passed since the city and State rang with the praises of the splendid overseas fighting of Maryland's fighting colored soldiers. In that time a suggestion was made that Congress be urged to donate one of the captured cannon as a part of a larger memorial to the colored soldiers who fought and died in the war. The suggestion was turned over to Senator France, who said he would do what he could in the matter, and then pushed with other things, promptly forgot all about it. It seems too that we very folk, who shouted loudest, when the boys came home, have forgotten all about it. But we cannot afford to forget about it. We cannot leave to the printed history the responsibility of telling posterity what Maryland colored men did in France. Many people do not read histories. We cannot leave to our memories, the trust of handing down to our children what Maryland colored men did in France. Few people have good memories. What these men did must be wrought into a memorial and a monument, "set on a hill, not under a bushel measure." Let it be a civic hall, let it be a school building, let it be a Victory Hospital, let it be any of these things, or all of them, but let us not forget. THE NEW GOVERNOR OF MARYLAND There has not been a governor of Maryland who has assumed office within the past three decades who has a better opportunity of rendering services of a high order for all the people than Hon. Albert C. Ritthe, who was inaugurated Wednesday. A man of admitted capabilities, of fine social connections and wide acquaintance among all classes, his services in various fields of city, State and federal endeavor should make him ideally fitted for the high office of chief executive. While many of the things for which the best and most patriotic men in Maryland have fought for in the past thirty years have been accomplished, Governor Mitchell will not have an easy task. Adjustment of conditions to fit the after-after war situation, the conducting of Maryland's affairs from an angle to bring the greatest amount of good to all the people and efficiency in administration are among the problems that confront him. He certainly has the best wishes of all of the colored people of this State. They believe that in the matter of good schools, the securing of equal salaries for teachers of both races and the abolishment of discriminatory school year, Governor Mitchell can view the matter with fairness and enlightened patriotism. They hope that he will do everything possible to aid the colored people to take a large share of civic responsibility, as an aid to alluring unrest and bringing about the largest measure of good to all classes. The APRO-AMERICAN certainly hopes that Governor Ritchie included the colored people when he said in his inaugural address: "Let us . . . sternly oppose all legislation which is in variance with our institutions and the fundamental principles of democracy, which appeals to class or sectional interests, likes or prejudices, or which is the recognition of force threats or popular clamor." The AFRO-AMERICAN will carnely back the Governor in all his efforts to render service to all classes of Marvinaders, and will especially look with favor on anything done to have the colored people treated with the utmost fairness and in the real False reports concerning assaults on women were responsible for the race riots in Washington. Effort to keep colored folk in certain residential sections was responsible for the race trouble in Chicago, and an attempted lynching was the basis of the disturbances in Omaha and Knoxville. Until now most white investigators have placed the blame of the Elaine, Aransas, riots on the colored people, who they said were moved to concerted action against the whites by radical propaganda. Hiding behind some such films excuses as this, nearly a half hundred colored folk were stained in the rioting and twelve are now reprieved thirty days after being sentenced to the scaffold. So it turns out after all that socialistic and radical propaganda have not been to blame for a single one of the great race disturbances in the United States this year. What was at the bottom of the race riots? Simply the race hatred of the white people, blind to justice, blind to American fair play, blind to the laws they themselves make, blind to the laws their fathers made, blind to the cagerness of the Negro to develop into America's best citizen, blind to everything except just this....as Dr. Dubois writes in the current Crisis..... "ALL property is WHITE property; that they benevolently "GIVE" Negroes work; that they LET them walk THEIR streets, and "PAY FOR" their schools." THE KING IS DEAD Those who have been accustomed to visit the same places where their grandfathers were wont to go in order to wash the dust out of their throats with a liquid that had a red complexion and sent a tingle thru the system, are now looking with gloom upon the fact that after Friday of this week the only way they can keep up family traditions along that line is to go to Canada, Cuba, Mexico, Ecuador or elsewhere. ose who have been accustomed to wv places where their grandfathers were order to wash the dust out of their liquid that had a red complexion a thru the system, are now looking with the fact that after Friday of this wv way they can keep up family tradition one is to go to Canada, Cuba, Mexico, where, africa, looking ahead and with the static spirit of the age, has placed a and the one that was most woggiess innocent hosts of its conglomerated is had to go.

America, looking ahead and with the vaunted democratic spirit of the age, has placed a ban on kings, and the one that was most worshipped by the democratic hosts of its conglomerated population has had to go. The Rich propaganda certainly hit Mr. Red Likker and there are many who cried sincerely over his departure. He will hardly be back on the job again however, and those who are real Americans should feel that they have not lost a friend, but an enemy. King Alcohol was certainly among those who helped to fetter the colored people and was always opposed to their receiving justice in matters political and civil.

The Republican party, providing it is reconstructed-brought back to those principles that actuated an controlled it under Lincoln, appears to be the only safe ark upon which we may take passage to bound for millennium." As a remedy for this political situation, he suggests that colored people meet in National Convention, and by resolution tell the coming Republican Convention that we must be given the recognition that the constitution provides. It seems to us that argument in a situation like this is not worth much. In a situation like this argument cannot do anything. The only argument any party listens to is FORCE. Theodore Roosevelt wielded the BIG STICK and Kaiser William the MAILED PIST. Both of them got away with it until they succeeded to bigger sticks and tougher lists.

Friend of Washington a navy In a spirited light made by Representative Campbell of Kansas, the Virgin Islands bought two years ago from Denmark for $25,000,000, were granted their request to have a committee of three Senators and Representatives to visit them as a Commission and investigate conditions. Legislation to this effect was passed by the House Wednesday, the Senate previously having acted. There will be no trouble in getting members of Congress to accept places on this commission, which will visit the Virgin Islands black folk.

BELDAM ROBINSON Master of York Rite Mmasus Describes That His Wing of Mmasus Have Always Won in Conjests Likt That Staged Recently in Local Court. To the Editor: In the matter of the recent Masonic decision in the Criank Court where Judge Dohber decided that the York Rite Masons had the legitimate right to do business in every state where the National Compact or York Rite Masons have been challenged by the State Rite Masons, verifiers have been rendered in favor of the York Rites as the legitimate body of Masons of color in the United States. In Baltimore state the State Rite Masons contended that they GAGEY 8. and the right to exist as a sovereign body, regurgit loss of the formation of a National Compan, formed by all the Missouri of color, was made by the 7th and 8th actions was ratified June 24, 1948, by a grand celebration in the city of New York. The contention of the State Riters is that they had a right to secede from the parent body without the parent's consent. On the other hand the York Riters contend that the State Riters must have and the consent of the parent body secede, because they or their predecessors granted the power or parent to the National Compact organization. The State Riters made an effort to the testimony of Mr. Grimshaw to prove that at some time the National Compact adjourned suicide die. This was however proven false by the testimony of a life witness who was at the meeting referred to. In the defense of York Libraries such as man Dev, J. M. Correll, P. G. M. of Tennessee; Prof. S.

This is the theme of the epic photoplay, "The Birth of a Race." The first part of this production begins with the wonderfully beautiful scenes of the Garden of Eden and show the happiness of the man and woman. They are spared and violence come into the world, and mankind is punished by the first great calamity, the Flood. Noah and his family are spared and the world's history begins anew.

The daughter of the family goes abroad as a Red Cross officer, and the younger son wishes to enlist in the army. But the poor father has become so entirely a tool of the German government that he cannot save himself. His son goes away in anger, weds the girl of his choice, and goes to the army.

She learns that she is in the midst of traitors and German secret agents. She gathers what information she can about their methods, but her work is discovered and she must fight for her life in order to escape. home or democracy. But even in this land of freedom appear oppressors and oppressed. Another great Emancipation, Abraham Lincoln, appears to free the slaves. The modern story introduces us to an American family, Fritz Schmidt, his wife, two sons and a daughter. Schmidt, an American civil life, with prospects of a hap of German birth, owns a greatty future. In the meantime her young husband has been wounded in the war and sent back to America to recuperate. He comes to her aid and together they bring the evil-doers to justice. Then, after the arrival of peace, they take up their work again in daughter.
