Maryland General Refuses Treatment
Turns away Colored Patient Who Had Been Taken Suddenly Ill.
SECOND CASE RECENTLY
Burned Baby of Mrs. George Welbourn Suffered Similar Indignity.
For some time there have been rumors current that the Maryland General Hospital will not give treatment to colored patients except in a case where first aid is needed. This situation has caused comment as the institution had for years been welcoming colored patients.
The fact that the hospital did not apparently cater to colored patients, any longer was prominently brot to mind recently when Mrs. John Welborne was refused treatment for her infant son, who had been badly burned in an accident morning fire at her home. She then had her baby. There have been accident cases happening recently within the hospital area which were carried far away to other institutions for treatment.
Frederick McKnight, aged 50, was taken suddenly in Fennell's Drugstore last Sunday night. A telephone call to the police Station called the ambulance and the man was taken in the hospital for treatment.
"him—to the—Maryland General Hospital," wrote "Patrolman William E. Gill in his report to Captain Henry, 'but was refused admittance. He was then taken to the University Hospital, where he was attended by Dr. Whitted. Remained at the hospital."
H. L. Lampkin of the Maryland General Hospital, in making a report to the police Monday, wrote: "Turned over to police" and "sent another hospital."

"That in the granting of the franchise to women, that the negro woman in all sections of the country, that the negro woman will receive equal terms with the white women. "That negro citizens be permitted to exercise the right of franchise as other citizens: "Farer treatment in the army and navy of negro possesses will receive equal military and naval training with other citizens in time of peace as well as during war, and the removal of restrictions relative to negro officers in the army and navy of negro possesses will interstate passengers in public conventions, and the segregation policy in the federal departments. "Industrial emancipation to the end that negro possesses have equal opportunity to earn a living with all other citizens of this country." There seemed to be a disposition turned colon candidates for the Legislature and Congress in a number of states. Race candidates may also be nominated in some Southern communities.

VOL. XXVIII. No. 25
Missionaries Not Wanted
African Natives Haveno use for Preachers Sent by /American Churches.
WORKERS ASKED FOR.
Instruction in Household art Is Termed More Important than Learning Ho wto Die
Than Christian missionaries sent out by the Methodist, Hurst Episcopal and Catholic Churches, and West Africa are unwelcome, and altogether not wanted, was the asking information given to the APCAN AMERICAN this week by N. Otho location of Sierra Leone, West Coast Africa.
My Logo represents the African Stormboy and Savannah Company with American and Savannah Company and Baltimore last Thursday for a short stay. He is a medium skin brown man, boardless, and with grizzly hair, approaching behind him, clear clear clear by the cold winter weather of this city, but when he can talk to Africa, he girl the colorer with his subject, and mix with his subject, and mix with convincing frankness.
AFRICA DIVIDED
"one of the reasons why Christian missionaries are welcome in Africa," said Mr. Logoson, "is that Africa is already divided. The people in the East and West are divided. Christian missionaries are able to teach a different dialect, while the natives on the East and West bonds cannot understand clojure of the others. Then the missionaries demonstrate starts up the mission station to teach, the natives the true God. It would be afraid if they would stop there, but the Catholic says we should be Catholic and the Methodists teach us a stay away from the Episcopal Station so that the net result of the work of all the mission stations is to make them new than they were. We are a religion that will bring their tribes together, not pull their asperi." Another fault that we find with them is the Mission stations are to they images and say that they are idols. They are no more idols than Catholic images are idols. The African warships nature, or, the worshippers God through Mohammed do the Christian Mission stations. They teach us to eat at a table, wear clothes, and tell us we are going to go if we do not eat to the church, and so is the wearing of clothes, but we are not caring about death so much that it should frighten us out of our wives. Our problem is to wake up the so-called civilized customs, lying, stealing, rape, gambling and drunkenness have mined a footnote among African natives. They are worse off under Christianity than they ever were before."
"Moreover, if the white churches, especially have any money to send out missionaries, they ought to send them work among white Americans. In Africa they teach us not to lift back, out it bear our patience everything we learn, and our reward will come when we die, and get some fine place. This is their blind to steal our land, steal our mines, steal our crops, pay 12¹/₂ gp. and help us with helpers before them. The colored denominations are just as bad as the white, because they do not send our missionaries, who teach us humidity, and us into the white man's hands. "Of course, you know in some places, a black man has to get a job with his wife, to leave his employer, and all sorts of things. They have taught us Christianity so much until the poor natives is afraid to fight in the work of your missionaries."
WHAT DOES AFL-CA WANT
In answer to the 'question, what does Afrien want, Mr. Logomboh was quite pleased at home. So 'Keep your men and women, who will teach the natives how to do simple, household tasks; how to clean a home, how to bake bread, how to make jelly, how to make butter, how to make butter and cheese. Let them come and teach us how to cultivate the land, dig wells, put up fences, build homes, lay of villages, cure ordinary ailments, and keep them healthy.
"When America has helped us do
more, we can do more, and
enough to look out for our souls."

SOCIAL EQUALITY NOT INVOLVED
"The Negro, too, must be admitted to all of our commercial, civic, and charitable organizations. "No questions of social equality is involved. Blunt is a question that should be raised by neither the Negro nor the white man. It is not necessary for any white man to sit at a table with a Negro if he does not desire to not invite a Negro to his home. But the Negro is a member of the community. His life is affected by our community activities, activities and institutions in community organizations and on community committees." 1 Labor and Life Magazine
FREDERICK ADDS
ANOTHER JUROR
Many White Men Ask Excuse
From Serving, and Evan
Brighton Is Chosen, Citizens
Command Judges.
Special to the Afro-American
Frederick, Md., Feb. 5—For the
first time, in the history of the
county, Court convened last Mon-
day to appoint two colored
men serving on the jury. Evan
Brighton, formerly a messenger
in the Baltimore City Custom
House, now a resident of this city
was chosen last Saturday. John
T. Bruce had already been drawn
two weeks ago.
During the period from Emancipation
down to 25 years ago, the county had in all about ten colored
jurors, yet this is the first time
have been drawn for the same term of the Court." The drawing of Mr. Brighton is due to the fact that so many white men asked to be excused.
SEVENTEEN ASK EXCUSE
Of the white men drawn with Mr. Bruce in the original selection seventeen, an unusual number of them were excused. What seven others were drawn to fill their places, about half of them asked to be excused. After two white men of this city were excused, Mr. Brighton was chosen.
Colored people here are proud of Judges Worthington, Urmer and Peter, and in a statement issued this week "command them to the city of Maryland in a few examples of Americanism," was due to their action, that colored persons were put on the jury list.
Would Not Agree
Monroe, La., Feb. 3. "The widely-published report that a white juror at Tallahasla had been dipped in a mudhole by frozen whites and ordered to leave town after he had been forced to agree to a verdict of murder in the first degree of murder in N. H. Arnold, a white farmer, is denied by Sheriff A. J. Sevier, of Tallahasla, in a dispatch to a New Orleans paper.
The report of the mud-ducking was brot here by a white business man of Tallahasla. According to the sheriff, the jury remained locked up until a verdict carrying the death sentence had been found, it was admitted, however, that one of the jurors was beaten after the
trial. Judging by the conflict in
statements, undue coercion must
have been brought to bear on the
white juror who believed in the
innocence of Calhoun.

Robinson was availed here in a trial in which pork chops were used to kill a party card and is hoping against hope that some loophole may be found for him to escape the gallows.
Robinson is an ignorant countryman, and has but a hazy idea of what may be done to aid him. He told a reporter of the Afro-American town of the crime; for which he has been convicted.
"How are you getting along here?" the reporter asked him.
"Alright; the keepers treat me fine," he replied.
"Did you murder that man?"
"I didn't do it," the condemned replied. "You heard anything from the folks that said they were going to try to get you an appeal?" was asked.
"I haven't seen any of them lately," said Robinson. "I haven't seen my wife since before 'Christmas' he added.'
As the reporter left, Robinson called out: "Omee and see me now."
Milton Dashields, his attorney, likewise believes Robinson important and will file an appeal in the case shortly.

RICH MAN WAS
BANK JANITOR
Charles Williams Said To Have Gotten Money From Church And Housekeepers Under False
How Charlie W. Williams, a bank junior of Minneapolis, Minnesota, pressed himself off as an officer, and in this way deceived several good heartless斗牛鬼鞋erunks out of board and bolted them to the ground. Conditions was told, by Mrs. Aha L. Brissoe, 2266, Dread Hill Ave. to a representative of the AFRCO *
According to Mrs. Briscoe, Williams was playing on the sympathy of the pastor of local churches, showing a letter of requiem for books, and gained permission to speak before an audience at the Seventh Day Adventist Church, Trinity Baptist, Patterson Baptist, and Williams. His title in each place was the same. He said he had just lost $36 on the train coming to this city, and that until he be buried from home in Minnesota he would not pay $60 in savings deposited in the bank of that city.
Each church gave him a small collection, and kind neglected memorials being held until he could hear from home. Mrs. Briscoe was one of those taken in by his painful story, and after several days stay in the hospital, he left the bank to afford, Williams left a draft on Citizens Savings Bank Minneapolis for $290 to pay for services rendered. When a presented for payment at the bank authorities immediately telegrammed Minneapolis and discovered that Williams had no account with them. The reply was that he was followed.
"We beg to know that upon receipt of your telegraph, we were entirely lost to form any connection with his parish, and we are told who he is: Charles W. Williams three or four years ago was junior for this bank." He said he was to be another of Williams's victims. Williams himself is said to have left this city.
Lee Must Pay Alimony
Lee Must Pay Ammony
Lee took his salary of $1,500 with his wife, Elizabeth Hickman. He paid her $2,000 a week alimony paying the settlement of her bail for an absurd divorce, was the ruling made by her lawyer, W.askie Court No. 2 Child Advocate, Court No. 2 Child Advocate. Then his attorney W. Ashley Hawkins, Lee had filed an objection to paying eight dollars a week alimony, and the court should grant Mrs. Lee a sum sufficient for one in her station of employment. His questions asked by Mrs. Lee, attorney, Lee not satisfied that her income was twenty dollars a month as director of the church and the interest from $2,500 while she had on deposit in the Commonwealth Savings Bank. The latter sum, she said was the not proper sale of the pieces of property.
Lock's attorney somewhat abmoved the lie of Mrs. Lee when he asked her to give him a job, which she was paid and denied an income from giving private lessons in music. She said the last time she was paid for taking part in a concert one that took place in Philadelphia, she was paid for private pupils. She denied that he husband paid for a plum for her. "Attorney Bond introduced objection to questioning Mrs. Lee about her employment," she said. Mrs. Lee, she declared that she could not support herself on the income from the church or from the bank deposit. Attorney Bond suggested $2 a week sufficient alimony. Attorney Bond was instantly on his feet saying that the testimony brought out by her other wife was sufficient reason to make alimony. In view of the fact that Mr. Lee only makes $18 a week, the court decided that he should pay $5 a week to his wife. In view of George W. Brown paying his wife, Mrs Susan Brown, $24 a week alimony will be heard Friday.

My wife suffered from long trouble and had three different doctors. The last was a popular white doctor residing on Connecticut, avenue. He gave up my wife declaring that he had done all he could and in fact nothing more could be done for her. He left her coughing, 105 degrees fever, pulse, 122. A Baltimore friend advised us to call Dr. B. Newton & Campbell, the Lang and Nerve Specialist, 1569 N. Carey street, Baltimore, and he came to Washington, Oct. 6, 1918. In less than a month afterward my wife was out of bed, fever and pulse reduced to normal. She has gained more than 10 pounds since and is able to do part of her house work. Christmas I told the white doctor of my wife's improvement. He wondered and said he would take his hat off to the doctor who could do such grand work. Anyone can come and see my wife now. Her address is 1226 15th St. N.W. Washington P.C.

AT THE CHURCHES
The constitution under which the Methodist Church would operate should the proposed merger of the Northern and Southern branches of the denomination take place, has been read by local colored Methodist pastors with keen interest, especially those sections which deal with the status of the Xerox in the projected collation.
The constitution was informally discussed at the weekly session of M. E. ministers, held at Sharp Street Memorial M. E. Church last Monday. Some of the ministers seem to think that the colored membership would be more registered under the contemplated anger that they are now in the theological Episcopal Church.
"It is true," said Dr. M. J. Nayor, "that the constitution of the proposed union will restrict a colored bishop to work among the white, while it is possible for a white bishop to preside in colored conferences." In the Methodist Episcopal Church a colored man can be a general superintendent, identified, he gets votes.
Rev. Dr. Ernest Lye urged the ministers to study carefully the provisions of the constitution before expressing an opinion.
Iews, W. H. Gaines, A. J. Mitchell, N. M. Carroll, S. A. Virgil and S. H. Norwood were among others who discussed the subject.
International Conference
To Meet In This City
Following a number of preliminary meetings between white and colored ministers, the Interracial conference held a long-term session of Baltimore has taken shape. The body plans to take up those questions of deep interest to both races and not only pre-interfer, but work to either from the standpoint of mutual understanding.
The latest public meeting of the Conference will be held at the Friends Meeting House, Park Avenue and Larrons Street, next Thursday and Friday, February 12 and 13. Topics relating better racial relations will be discussed by white and colored speakers. Former President, Taft and Ernest J. Scott may be present.
Rev. Dr. Peter Ainstie, white, will provide over the sessions. Rev. Ernest S. Williams, a district superintendent of Washington M.E. Conference, will not as Secretary. The colored citizens who will take an active interest are: Dr. Wm. Pickens, Dr. D. K. E. Campbell, Rev. Ernest E. L. G. H. Steptan, S. J. G. L. W. A. J. Mitchell, W. Simpson Brooks, M. J. Taylor, D. G. Mack and George P. Briggs, Jr.
Rev. Alfred H. Star, Don S. Coll, H. P. S. M. J. R. M. H. H. C. A. J. W. W. C. J. C. Sponner and B. H. Melton are among the white ministers interested.
NEW PASTOR
"SCORES" SHIMMY
Rev. W. W. Walker In First Sermon At Madison Street Says It Came From
Hell
Teaching that he saw no objection to dancing, playing cards, going to "movies", but that he did equip Shimmy with a knife. Walker, his first sermon as pastor of St. Simons Street Presbyterian Church last Sunday, the "Shimmy" said Rev. Walker, and he said I and came into church then the houses of prostitution. I know of nothing more vile than this dance, and no one who does it can claim that he is regarding theological injunction and the laws of God and glory of God. "So, he said that he could eat and drink to the honor of God. I go [even further and remind you] must talk, work and be large. I want the glory of God. I do not take the narrow stand that church members cannot do this thing, and that thing and the other thing. I simply say you the bishop, let it be to the home and glory of God."
The new pastor commented fairly play and sponsorship in games and declared that he had known many good Christians who played chess.
George R. Murphy, treasurer of the church announcement that啊 the congregation had been without a regular pastor for sixteen months no members have dropped out, and the church has been a two thousand and thirty rally has been started to collapse the work of this year.
A GOOD SHOWING
St. Mary's Church, E. Church East
St. Mary's hold its 4th quarterly conference on Tuesday, Jan. 26. The district Superintendent held by Rev. E. Hoodock. All reports were growing and very satisfactory. The unkempt church is the efficient leadership of the pastor Rev. R. A. Green. Every dollar of indebtedness to the church difference claims are on hand and the trustees have a neat balance in treasury with which they hope to be able to start building in
A five thousand dollar drive, is well in hand as a dollar drive, is attended and a shower of speeches, the pastor, Ladies Aid, and the work they had accomplished. The Disaster Superintendent was the only person to the unanimous voice of the people for the return of Ray, Robert A. Green as pastor for another year.

Darchy, Md. Feb. 4,— On account of the terrible sleet, we have not been able to have much church services here but the Cottage meetings have been very good. The met at Mr. and Mrs. George Dickerson last Tuesday in the Rev. and Mrs. Brown will entangle the Ladies Aid on Wednesday night. The Farmers Club will hold a meeting at St. Daniels Church, Friday.

Mrs. Daisy Sudden, in Philadelphia made a flying trip to the week to see her sick father, Mr. Harry Sheidend and Mr. Elwood Browns are spending a few days here with friends.
To Vote On Women's Rights
According to Rev. A. L. Gaines, the next session of the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church will vote on the question of granting to women communicants all the rights of men except the right to serve us minister.
The issue will be raised on account of the clamer of women for recognition in the church, and would result in women becoming eligible for the offices of trustees and stewards.
CORRIBE
It was in January stated in last weeks Afro-American that services were held every Saturday at 3 P. M. It should have read every Sunday at
Rev. I. A. Briscoe, pastor of Mt. Moniah A. M. E. Church, at Annapolis, MD., has announced himself as a candidate for the Elshonprie in the A. M. E. Church subject to the will of the General Conference, which meets in St. Louis in May, 1920.
Rev. Briscoe has been a minister in the local conference for the past 27 years and is finishing his fifth year in Annapolis. According to the announcement, he is not a delegate to the conference, but is more widely known outside, which continues. "I am not seeking this high calling, but am divinely impressed by the eternal spirit to accept the call."
Many Join Church
Following a stirring sermon on "Knowing - God" by Rev. A. J. Mitchell at Atmos Memorial M. E. Church last Sunday morning, eleven adults were received into the church by the school. School were added to the membership. A large congregation was also present at night.
WILL DISCUSS "UNITY"
"Unification in the light of the Proposed Constitution as it affects the Negro" is the subject to be discussed as "Order of the Day" at the Washington Preachers Meeting at Asburg M. E. Church, 11th and H streets N. W., Washington, D. C., on Monday, February 5th. The Rev. C. S. Harper, A. M., B. D., of Leesburg, Va., will lead the discussion with a paper. E. Adolph Haynes, secretary.
A. M. E. Ministers
Oppose Bill
Describing that the proposed State Administration Bill, which would pay colored school teachers through the state a smaller salary than white teachers, is "in-American, and gives M. E. Ministers Meeting at its weekly session passed a resolution demanding "equal pay for equal work for all school teachers, and urging purposive and teachers to take on the every weapon they can command."
The resolution reads as follows:
"The Baltimore A. M. E. Presachers Meeting composed of teachers and purposive and teachers and surrounding counties, protests against" that portion of the State Administration Bill, that would appropriate smaller salaries for colored teachers than white teachers.
"We stand for equal salaries for equal work for all school teachers, anything less than this is inAmerican and a violation of the 14th Amendment and the Constitution of the United States."
We urge parents and teachers throughout the state to fight this Bill with our colored children may have an equal chance for an education in the state of Maryland.
Computer science teaching of Rev. A. J. Murray, chiefman, Rev. Charles Murray, Rev. C. H. Young, Carl Murray and Rev. J. W. Norris was appointed to take up the fight for the Teacher's Meeting.

STREPHY—In sad, but loving remembrance of our darling baby, Ruth frone, who departed this life, 4 years ago today Feb. 5, 1916. Gone but not forgotten.
Sleep on dear darling baby and take
his rest.
God叫我 you home He that it hott;
he saw your suffering here so great.
He opened wide the Golden Gates.
By her loving Mamma and Papa
HOWAD AND ESTILLA SINENEY.
COTTMAN—In loving remembrance
of the Friend of Dr. David
Cottman, who fell asleep in Jesus 20
years ago, Feb. 3 1900.
It has just been twenty year ago,
Since father passed away;
When Angels bore him home to
To God and there to stay.
Why should not we miss our father
dear?
His true he had grown old and he knew,
And our love will never grow cold.
Yes we expect to see our father,
And be with him some day
Where all is joy and happiness
And all is peace
By his three daughters, AMELIA
EMMA and ANNE.
JOHNSON—In sad, but loving re-
memberance of my dear mother, Mr.
Joseph, who departed three
years ago Feb. 6, 1917. Gone
but not forgotten.
It was a bitter cold day when we
laid you in your grave and our
friendship was gone. Rest in peace dear mother.
By her CHILDREN.
COATES—In sad, but loving re-
memberance of our dear brother,
George W. Coutts, who departed
February 4, 1917.
Gone but not forgotten.
Dear brother, thou hast left us,
We thy lost most deeply feel,
He can all our sorrows heal.
More and more each day I miss you.
Friends may think the wound
But they little know the sorrow. That lies within my heart conce

To "Afro" Customers, Kindly pay your carriers when the papers are delivered. If you say I will pay you tomorrow I cannot get back, as I have another route to serve. If you say I will pay you Sunday that keeps me from church and Sunday School. If you say I will pay you next week that keeps me from paying for my papers this week and maybe I may not be able to get them at all. Kindly have 5 cents ready, when I come on Friday or Saturday and help make things satisfactory all around.
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1920
Let us make good and quit making excuses.
It takes the Western Union Telegraph Company to make some folks express themselves in ten words or less.
One thing about the road to success is the grease on it. It is hard to climb up, and easy to slide down.
There is a question of how much union there will be in the proposed Methodist merger.
Mayor Broening's liddling with the appointment of a colored member on the School Board is getting on everybody's nerves, including his own.
If some of the vaudeville at local theatres is half as bad as our correspondents say it is, it must be rotten.
If the churches just must send missionaries, why not send white ones to Mississippi and rural Maryland.
Irish insurrections did not keep Lloyd George too busy to attend his first jazz dance, with music furnished by a colored American orchestra, recently.
The House of Representatives is considering three bills to make lynching a Federal offense. One passed will prove a plenty.
The whipping of the white Louisiana juryman, who failed to agree with eleven others to condemn a colored man, is not calculated to increase confidence in the fairness of the courts.
American prospectors are reported to be digging up Haytin in search of gold coins hidden by 70,000 white Frenchmen, who were massacred in the revolution led by Toussaint L'Ouverture, a century ago. Now and then some fortunate white may find buried treasure, but the millions of dollars hidden in Haytian soil must be dug up by the sweat of the farmer's brow and not by the aid of divining rod.
State Street, Chicago, corresponds to Pennsylvania avenue in this city. With the grocery, clothing, shoe and department stores located on State Street, colored folk spend a large part of $65,000,000 every year. Survey of the proprietors shows that 279 of these stores are owned and operated by while men and 27 by colored men. This is the biggest argument that can be made for larger business activities.
Not to supplant the doctor, but to free the public from the dead weight of patent medicines, the United States Public Health Service has issued a number of pamphlets dealing with common maladies.
The nature and prevention of whooping cough, tuberculosis, measles, common colds, scarlet fever, listeria, typhoid, safe milk, baby care, adenoids, cancer and parenthood, are some of the topics treated in pamphlets of sixteen pages or more.
The books were originally prepared for information of soldiers, sailors and marines discharged from the service. While the supply lasts, it is at the disposal of the general public. Readers of the APO-MERICAN may write to the Public Health Service, Washington, D. C. for free copies.
According to the Associated Negro Press one of the stumbling blocks in the way of interracial good will is the large amount of "piffe" used by other races.
"It's best to keep the colored folk out of politics."
"Segregation is the cure for housing difficulties."
"I know the Negro better than he knows himself."
P. here is puff on the part of colored people too.
It is:
A follow ing the indictment of the State Board of Education in these columns last week, M. R. Reavies, white, Assistant Superintendent, gave out interviews to the daily press offering excuses why colored teachers were not recommended for the same salaries given white teachers.
Think of making excuses for robbing 700 teachers, and keeping a quarter of a million colored people in half-ignorance.
Mr. Reavies admits that colored people pay equal taxes, which ought to entitle them to equal school facilities. Instead of arguing this point, he begs the question by talking about how much better Maryland is than Georgia in provisions for education.
The whole argument is pure benome, and simply shows up the unfitness of the State Superintendent and his crowd for handling the educational problems of the children, either white or colored in the State. Any official, who attempts to justify robbery, might conceivably attempt to justify himself in violating the other nine commandments. Such an official is morally ugly for any public office.
Another result of the publicity given the methods of the State Board of Education, has been its proposal to ask ask the Legislature for an increase of ten dollars a month over the salary asked for colored teachers originally.
In other words the State Board, caught in a corner has started to squabble. By a promise of ten dollars raise over its original plan, it attempts to stop public opinion from jabbing its claws. To stop the light it seeks to buy up public sentiment with a tip, and it tempts colored folk to sell their birthright for a mess of potage.
There will be no compromise, no pussyfooting, on this principle of equal salaries for equal work for all school teachers. This fight was made in Baltimore City last year and won. It can also be won in the rural schools.
The AFRO-AMERICAN commends the resolution of the Ministers Meeting which urges parents and teachers all over the State to use "every weapon in their command, to secure for their children an equal chance for education in Maryland."
WHAT HAS HELL TO DO WITH IT?
At the beginning of the Sixty-Sixth Congress, Senator George H. Moses, of New Hampshire, introduced a resolution in the Senate providing for a committee to investigate the suppression of the electorate in the South.
All the world knows that in the South colored people are not permitted to vote in some States, and in others such obstacles are placed in the way of colored voters that nullify openly the Fourteenth Amendment. In these Southern States only white people vote, and yet when it comes to apportion the number of representatives to be elected to Congress both white and colored are counted. Senator Moses resolution was to the effect that if certain people were not allowed to vote, they should not be counted when the question of representation comes up.
In a recent issue of the Jackson (Miss.) Daily News, the Moses resolution is discussed in part as follows:
"In so far as the South is concerned, we are willing to admit practically everything Senator Moses charges in his resolution. And we also dismiss the subject by asking: 'WHAT IN HELL ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?' In some quarters it has been said that Senator Moses filed his resolution, merely because Democrats were inclined to go into the details of the election frauds involving the last senatorial election in Michigan, where two millions of dollars were used illegally in placing Senator T. H. Newberry in office. In answer to the Jackson Daily News, it seems perfectly proper to say, that if the above charge is true, then Congress may do very little towards appointing this investigating committee. But on the other hand, if the Congress of the United States, including Senator Moses, is sincere in considering this resolution, then it is not out of place to suggest that what we want is not investigating committees; but legislation to enforce the Fourteenth Amendment.
THE METHODIST MERGER
The reading of the Constitution for the respozoic organic union between the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church South, brings out the fact that the Negro membership will occupy a fixed status in the pael, and no matter what numerical and financial strength they gain in the future, whites will always be the dominant element.
The scheme seems to have been closely worked out by the whites who served on the joint commission, and it is regarded as a concession to the Southern branch, which set apart its race membership into the Colored Methodist Church in 1876. The 300,000 colored members in the Methodist Episcopal Church have, at least a theoretical equality and may aspire even to a general superintendency. They could only have bishops whose work would be strictly confined to their regional conference. They might ask white bishops to preside over some of their conferences, but no colored bishop could ever preside over a white conference. Those white Methodists who would ever circumscribe the Negro have also seen to it that the race can never have more than five per cent. of the representation of a general conference. They realize that the Negro membership may grow to large proportions, however, and provide for this contingency by allowing the formation of an associate general conference whose representation would be decidedly less than the colored regional conference. The pact was drafted with the idea to forever fix the status of the Negro membership, it appears.
The AFRO-AMERICAN is cognizant of the great part that Methodism has played in the advance of the Negro. It realized that the Northern branch established churches and schools for him everywhere right after the Civil War. It regrets, however, that when its early work and the fruits of its interest are becoming so apparent, that for the sake of a union with those who do not fully believe in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, it would sacrifice those principles which it had inculcated, and forever curb those aspirations within its borders that it had encouraged.
For fear colored women may have the chance to wade. Mississippi fraternity vowed down women's suffrage that work. They evidently knew that the female is more deadly than the male.
THE AFRO-AMERICAN
Writer Says Fifth Is Being Served
Up In Theatres Under Name of
Art—Local Vaudeville Censured
To the Editor
Sir—A short while ago, there
was published in your Forum a
letter written by a Grammar I
below in the low type of
vaudeville (?) that is constan-
tly presented in the majority
of "theatres" operated exclusively
for Negro patrons in this city.
I don't believe that I am what
might be called a prude, in any
sense of the word. Nor can I
acby the veriest stretch of imagination,
classed among the "holier-
thoughe," but I am sure that
would work this writer says
in protest against this fifth that
is being served up in the name of
theatrical art.
A Little "spice" occasionally, artfully "put over" has always had its place in the theatre. But this vicious "gutter spew" that night after night, week in and week out is being paraded before the children, by a lot of alley "tails" calling themselves performers, is indulgent. I wonder what is the matter with the self-respecting Christian mothers of these children, and the other women of the race who take the lead in various behavior* activities in the lives of Jews and demand a reform in this sort of thing*: "They certainly cannot plead ignorance of it, for some of them are often seen in attendance."
Nor is a lack of decency the only grievance we can justifiably hold against these "players." They layout not got even intelligence to oppose their own profession. But are practically a lot of bond-mouthed parrots stealing the "stuff" of their fellow-players continually. Let one of them originate a new fance-step, conceive a bit of funny "business" or funny saying, and thereafter every one that follows repeats the same thing.
And now we come to our greatest grievance against these world-creatures. The pride is about as scarcie in the take up of these players, as blood in a brass monkey. They don't seem to know that there is any other section of these United States except the Southern section. All of their stage "business" all of their songs, all of their longings, corner around this American Turkey. Dishe this, and Dishe that, world without end. It is disgusting.
Even during the past week, two degrees appearing at one of the white burlesque houses, adventures in the local dailies: "Below the Mason-Dixon Line." Who but a foot would believe that the Negro or the North is not satisfied with the treatment of his brother in the past year; they are constantly extolling its virtues and singing its praises.
One day you pick up your paper and read the revolting details of the lynching of a Negro in the south (It may have been a woman to become a mother). You read the story of the crime, he was dragged by the mob to some particular spot, led to a stake, saturated with oil and set a fire, in the presence of thousands of cheering men, women and children, who after the stake somewhat subside struggle and find a finger, a tooth, or a piece of the victim's unconscious clothing as a souvenir. That night—if you are not too sick at heart to do so—you drop into one of these "themes" to be entertained. "2) by some "food Negro" (It's the only word that can do the justice) to be a crowdrow than a human being, singerow to "bear Old Dixie" "how he wish he were there" And you wish he were too.
Source wonder that a few weeks ago when the Jim Crow car camp up for discussion in the lower house of Congress the question arises as to whether or not the Negro objected to this treatment by the South, with subsequently having four more than four hundred members abolition. If about time Negroes in whatever capacity they are engaged, let it be known that they too have a pride of race. For the "enemy"—and the "friends too for that matter—are not oblivious to those "little things," and we are tools if we think so. "He who would be free must first strike the blow." W.M. E. READY
Annapolis Reader Writes About Several Kinds of Judgment.
This proves that my judgment is not as sweet as sugar. Some people including myself, insist upon putting wrong things to do, and then wondering why it didn't turn out right.
Right things don't happen by themselves, there must be some guiding force behind them. We are master and crew of our own destiny and can star our lives on any course we will, the trouble with most of us is we don't direct our energy in the proper channel, our energy in the irons had used the same beauty and industry in being honest and good that they did in being bad, they would be free and happy. We don't stop to think when we are doing a thing, that it has its reward or punishment fastened to it.

Washington Reader Says We Are Long On Preschoolers And Short On Doctors.
A great deal of interest is being manifested by members of our professional groups as to the number and distribution of our professional men, and it is believed that the U. S. Census now being taken will shed a great deal of light upon this subject and dis
pose of the contention that we have an insufficient number of clergymen and that we have an over-supply of dentists, lawyers, and physicians.
As a matter of fact the Census of ten year ago indicated that clergymen are more numerous than the special group than among whites, the population per clergyman being 562 among us, and 815 among whites. In other words there were 253 more white people per white clergyman than colored people per colored clergyman, while for colored people there were 30,560 per dentist and with only 2,070 colored whites. There was only one lawyer for every 12,315 of our people while for the whites there was one for every 718 persons. However, the field for physicians and surgeons was less inviting, there being one colored physician to every 3,194 colored men, women and children as compared with one to every 553 white inhabitants.
Considering our economic status it would appear that we had about reached a safe limit ten years ago in the number of physicians, but probably not in the number of surgeons. With the exception of etergymen, who were everywhere, there appeared to be a lack of proper distribution of the dentists, lawyers, and physicians, many of whom seemed to prefer a professionally overcrowded job where smaller community, where splendid opportunity exist, and substandard facilities are assured. On account of the splendid development of our financial and business interests during the past ten years it is hoped that there has been a corresponding development along other professional lines particularly in an increased number of expert accountants, stenographers and clerks for whose services there is a constant demand by our bankers and life insurance officials. The data being compiled by the U. S. Census Bureau will be informative as well as interesting.
CHARLES E. HALL
Washington, D. C.
IN DEFENSE OF THE LITTLE
BLACK CHILDREN OF MARY-
YAND
The state department of education thru Mr. Huffington, the superintendent of Negro schools, says that the state has many incompetent teachers and unqualified teachers colored people; it is a charge against the state. The more intelligent colored people can get money for laying bridges or tendinures than the state has to pay for them or teach them little color, and the more covered girls will afford to let people know that they were pretending to live on the salaries offered in the counties. Somebody seems to be indoctrinating itself when it tells of the grade of teachers whose time it can buy at the prices offered. There are intelligent colored people doing personal service for white ramen, and some colored people employ colored people to animate their anything.
Sir. Huffington, Eustorfe, condemns the state of Maryland, whether he means to dose or not. If the state will do the plainly just thing of offering to colored teachers the same pay as the white teachers, I will wager my house and lot that with seven days I can have a competent colored teacher for every place Mr Huffington has to offer in the State.
The white teachers, according to their recent vote, want the colored teachers paid less than white teachers are paid. That means that the educators of Maryland are, as a class, morally inferior to the red carriers and the boatblacks; for I have not read anywhere that the had carriers and the boatblacks of the white Marylanders have sank to how in civic ideal or risen as high in arrogance, as to even think of demanding the holocaustmehe riweteating that the colored hol-carriers and boatblacks should be sold less for their work than the white; why should the white teachers of Maryland have a lower ideal of professional fairness than the average common laborer among the white people?
Mr. Huffington is right that the state of Maryland employs some incompetent teachers. But the only possible reason is that the state has better and better management for the colored schools. — The following letter proves this. The very character of this letter condemns those who manage the schools, and the very character of this letter indignates who he is. But just as Mr. Huffington's charge proves what it did not aim to prove; so this letter, by its internal evidence, proves more than it did out to prove, with all of its remarkable insight;
"I am taking the privilege to address you on a very important matter after listening to your valuable information," he said. "It is of note that you are at the State teachers meeting I was so inspired I feel you will as I know you can come to my assistance now in fact the whole body of Teachers kind you. I will be on answer the piece enclosed in this letter which I can't include. I am the Africa, New Mr. Pultong, I am a teacher, who, if I had to board would never think of teaching on the present salary. I also hold a certificate, but I think it very unfair that the teacher halter do the work and then the Supervisors get the credit. Mr. — our Supervisor have been in my School once for one hour—came to the school once for on 20 minutes last term and Mr. Huffington have been to my School this term at all yet he has reported every School in the county accordingly. Now it that fear, they have insincerate Teachers because they cannot secure cabalte One's under the present salary for all Schools: Why bound them? No (Mr. Huffington is getting back at you people in a sly way for what was said: now I cannot answer him as I would love to see him answered will you not answer him? in the next Issue. Now Mr. Pulkens as your Own Judgment; in the signature either your Signature or teacher in — County. I would not like my name signed I thank you Dean I know you can: I could listen to you for hours at a time, I remain respectfully."
This truly remarkable letter an ensr Mr. Huffington and the who state board much better than ever could "anser" them.

*Chikandla, Okla.*, Feb. 4—This city, the county seat of Grady, has been put to severe shame since the 1980s when the city lost its Lieutenant, Glen Chikandla, A. Triebtt, a Negro officer, was taken from the train, and placed in the county jail, because he refused to leave the building on Pulham to Fort St. Hill, under government orders. Lieutenant, his hongqiao was surrendered and to cap the climax was the arrest of a portion of his money taken while in the toils of Grady County officers. He was finally fired and sent out of the town in a "film-crow" coach to
An idea can be gathered as to the class of men who were behind Lieber, Tribble's persecution when it is known that the then county judge, R. E. Pavenport, after being charged with assault and battery, by a young lady in Chickasha, was relieved of his position of honor and is now hauling corn out on a farm in Grady county; Oscar Simpson, who was the county attorney, has been convicted of bribery in the courts of the State and his case is now before a special court of review, he is teaching schools and debarred from practice; Hodge Balley, the sheriff of Grady County, and who entered into a humiliating search of the person and effects of the detained colored officer and which led the half mob of thugs, has been removed from office on a charge of bribery and is now out on a farm at Chickasha. The whole police force at Chickasha has been removed since that time, including Chief Ben Phillips, on request of the United States government, who complained of the immoral conditions obtaining in the city of Chickasha, under their rule.

A Colored Mother's Prayer About Poorly Paid Teachers For Her Child
Mr. Patel said, "For the day my child was born, I have dreamed of his upright and intelligent charging, I felt that then had charged me with a great duty to bring him to the world, to be a useful member of society, thanked Thee for my precious gift and trust. Early and late winters I could watched him and prayed to Thee he would open the way for him beyond the veil of uncarried race proclaims. I also prayed that those who claim to follow in Thee would teach the treacherous knowledge was great and whose pay for their work in fashioning children as Thou wouldst have them. The Lord I prayed you to remove those smucking bettels that would cause men to mistreat us because we are not of their race. I fondly hoped that Thou would show them that you paid the teacher of my child less than it takes to take care of a horse. I had hoped that those who claim that Thou underestimates their rules that you trusted as Thou would have them do."
When the World War came on, I prayed that Thou wrestle help them in fighting the war for you. I prayed that you would hold of man. I gave of my mind to Liberty Bonds and War Saving Stamps, to Stamps to help you for wariness to all men. I saw my brothers and male relatives take chances of going to meet Thou while they were still young. And who would enslave the world. I loved the war was won and I hoped that my child would succeed. Instead, dear Stationer, we get a stone when we ask for bread. They forget our devoted service and would still keep in shavr.
Dear Lord, I rehearse There to how them the error of their ways, and make them all—the mighty Governor who sits in an amphitheater, the State Superintendent of Education—be penitent and "Do unto others as they would be done by." "I pray you, as the Giver of all that is good, to show them right and to make them right, and be the same in the right as thefts, and should be so created.
TEACHERS AND
PARENTS ACTIVE
pressed the determination to carry the question of unjust discrimination in salaries to the course of BIDICELLES BOARD'S DEFENSE The strongest attack upon the recommendations of the State Board of Education is contained in the bill, was made by Dr. William Fickner, to a representative of the AEBO MERLEAN.
I wish to state the case of the colored people. They do not ask that an incompetent colored teacher be paid as much as a competent white teacher. They do ask that a competent colored teacher be paid exactly the same salary for the same work as a competent white teacher. They always say that "the colored teachers (note the plural) are not as well prepared as the white teachers." Everybody knows that. That is perfectly true. And there is no reason under the sun why that should not be true. But why should we lump (ogether the colored "teachers") and treat them as a group, instead of treating the colored teacher (note the singular) according to his merit and ability? That is the eternal ecstasy of the colored teachers we temperate on the Negro and standardize him according to his worst or poorest element. We consider him first as a Negro and only lustily (if ever at all) as a teacher, a workman, a citizen, a man.
The faultiness of such "reasoning" appears on its Good for what then becoming of the large number of colored teachers who are prepared to meet the standard? Not even the worst enemy has pretended that there are no colored teachers prepared.
And this is not "racial equality." This is commonness and honesty. An individual has the right to equal pay for equal work with other individuals.
There is another phase to this discrimination in salaries: it promotes the very thing which it alleges as its justification. Underpay always, all over the world, among all peoples, gradually lowers the grade of the work or service a fellow into a hole and then penalizing him for being in the hole. The lower pay of colored teachers tends to promote and perpetuate their lower attainment, for the following reasons:
1. They can less afford to attend summer schools on lower salaries.
2. They must engage in "sideline" work or forage.
3. The better treated colored people will stay out of the teaching profession, for better pay.
other work. There are colored people doing housework for rich white people, who are better prepared to teach school than some of those who are teaching. If discrimination is made at all, they be in the other direction: if the New York school, he
RepublicanHead Will Make
A Bid For Votes
Chicago, Ill., Feb. 5.—Announcement, made here that Chairman Will H. flags, of the Republican National Committee, will be one of the speakers at the meeting of the Lincoln League here February 11 and 12 has been received with varying emotions by politicians all over the country.
Old conservative, dyeed in-the-wool Republican view Chairman Hays coming as a sign that the National Republican Party is writing at last to grant the cooped people recognition. Colored Supporters, the Democratic Socialist and Labor Parties regard the move as a probable attempt to prevent the League from taking any radical step.
Leaders in the North and East well experienced thru long dealings with the Republican crowd, know that any compromise with Will Hays is fatal, and that once the line, the C. G. P. will go on its usual way. Evidence of this is pointed out in the present Republican Congress, which under the leadership of Somator Lodge, has not authorized investigation of the voting conditions in the South, which has failed to pass anti-Jihad laws, and which has something like 250 to 14, and which has not passed an anti-mob law bill.
If the League endorses the Republican Party, it may mean a few plums for the League Officers, but it will not mean the support of the colored brother in the East. What the voters expect of the meeting next week is that they will submit to all of the parties, the League keeping itself as at present absolutely non-partisan, until it knows which party will grant most concessions in return for colored votes.

The managers of General Leonard Wood, whose name is on many lips, and whose picture in both civilian and military clothes, has begun to occupy prominent places in thousands of well chosen spots, are not oblivious to the necessity of "letting the people know" that Leonard Wood has a record estimate of warm weather in his home. Reports from Wood headquarters show that "Leonard Wood Leagues" are being organized by our group in many sections of the country.
Reports coming out of Ohio from the Cleveland Advocate and the Cincinnati Enquirer that the managers of the Harding Campaign Committee are ignoring the group in their campaign program, brought forth a hot reply from the Harding Committee, Harry M. Daugherty, who states in a telegram to the Associated Negro Press, "There is no such thing as discrimination against your group in Ohio or anywhere else." Senator Harding has for years been popular in Ohio, having inherited much of the campaign program of Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, of Cincinnati.

"When the hours of day are numbered.
And the voices of the night.
Wake the better soul, that slumbered.
To a holy, calm delight.
"When the forms of the departed Enter at the open door;
The beloved the true-hearted Come to visit me once more."
"And with them, the Being
Benuitious
Who unto my youth was given,
More than all things else to love
me.
And is now a saint in heaven:
"With a saint and noiseless foot-
step
Conceives that messenger divine;
Takes the vacant chair beside me,
Lays her gentle hand in mine;
Turned not yet comprehended,
Is the spirit, voices prayer,
Soft robes in blessing ended.
Breathing from her lips of air,
To though oft depressed and
honor.
All my fears are laid aside.
If that remember only
Sigh as her have lived and

"We cannot say, and we will not say."
That she is unearth, she is just away.
With a cheerful smile and a wave of

She has wandered into a heavenly
land.
And left us dreaming how very fair
it peaks could be; she imagines there
And you, on you, who the widest
For the out-time step and the glad

Mild and gentle as she wag her hair.
When she is in love of her life
she is very happy.
To simple things where the violin

Pure as the eyes they were likened
to.
The touch of her hand have
gripped.
As reverently as her lips have
proved.
Think of her as the same, we say,
She not dead she is just awake.

HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE YOUR HAIR
If your hair is dry, wiry and coarse, it is necessary to use a treatment that will feed the roots of the hair. Dandruff will cause your hair to become dry, wiry and brittle and soon fall out, and a preparation that will also relieve this scalp trouble is very important. The proper washing of the hair and scalp must be given every care and a pure medicated Soap or Shampoo used once a week.
THE BEST HAIR DRESSING
Black and White Hair Dressing is a new white preparation composed of the purest and best ingredients known by specialists to relieve dandruff and make the hair grow soft and glossy. Some time was spent in testing the merits of this new hair dressing, and the manufacturers now believe that they have the best preparation on the market. Certainly there is no dressing just like Black and White for hair troubles.
HOW TO USE BLACK AND WHITE HAIR DRESSING
First wash the hair thoroughly with a good soap or shampoo. (There is nothing better than Black and White Soap.) Then apply Black and White Hair Dressing in little pieces night and morning, rubbing well into the scalp. Brush the hair thoroughly several times a day, if possible. Wash the hair again in one week. The regular and continued use of Black and White Hair Dressing will so improve your hair that you will be proud of the day you bought your first package.
