Resentment of the Halifax island-wide, and many prospects have been on the mind of the "big bully," since the United States sent marines to Haiti in 1915. Senator King returned last week from an official trip to the island where he followed a private flight land-backed harbor, one hundred miles across, and whose waters the navies of the world might ride and manouver. It is a truly magnificent skimdance for a naval base and the chosen set and the Panamanian court. PROTEST AGAINST SOLDIERS While white marines sent to Haiti do not believe in the war on the islands they run riot among the native women. Everywhere soldiers are seen accessorized with the brown girls, and quite recently nine little girls under the years of age are told to have no night after being led by the white marines. Natives are in favor of urging the U. S. to send colored soldiers instead of the whites now there, and in addition want colored business and professional men from the reconstruction work. Under the treaty now in effect the United States has a protectorate over Haiti until 1336. If in addition burial is necessary the base will mean that this country intends to keep its hold on the natives for ever.

The trouble that has been brewing for some time at Ames Memorial M. E. Church, on account of the opposition of a faction to the pastor, Rev. Albert J. Mitchell, was aired at a meeting of the officiating of the church Tuesday, District 3, Williams was there as well as an attorney and a photographer, Rev. Mitchell presided. The meeting on Tuesday night followed an attempt on Monday night to block a reception to the pastor. The church doors were locked and someone broke in. Sergeant Landers, white, and other policemen were ended in a stop light. The stop light, the sergeant that a warrant be secured for the one who broke the door, the reception went on.

He also said a new pastor would迎迎 to the church in the near future. Pastor Mitchell s or Bishop McDowell asked him if he could reconcile the warring factions and that he had replied he could if there was no outside interference.

Allen, Alfred Barnett, Caleb Prescine and Charles Smith, trustees, are said to be against the pastor and Thomas P. Kelson and Levi Sewell with him. A majority of the members are said to be with the pastor, however, and a number are said to have been removed. The trouble is said to be hurting the finances of the church and many declare that they will not contribute to the rally planned for this Sunday.

A bier Pastor Williams In Trouble Philadelphia: Pa., April 28.—Announcement from the pulpit Sunday morning of last week that he intended to dismiss the heads of the departments of the church of some of the class leaders and license of some of the local preachers who voted against his return to the church has created dissention between Rev R. J. Williams, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church in the holdings of the church are worth -$50,000 and there is a mortgage indebtedness of $20,000. ? How much should I give to make this a better world? A CERTAIN man in New York filled out his income tax report. It showed an income so large that his tax was 53%. And his total gifts to church and charity for the year were $148. Think of it—thousands spent for luxuries and pleasure for himself; and $148 to leave the world a little better than he found it! Most of us do better than that; but not so very much better. Our average daily gift for all church causes is No wonder that 80% of the ministers of America are paid less than $20 a week. No wonder that the church hospitals turn away thousands of sick people a year. No wonder that China has only one doctor for every 400,000 people. No wonder that every church board and charity society is forever meeting deficits, forever passing the hat. It isn't because we are selfish; it isn't because we don't want to help. It's just because no one has ever put up a great big program to us, and asked us to think of the work of the church in a systematic businesslike way. The Interchurch World Movement represents the united program of thirty denominations. They have surveyed their whole task, no business could have done it better. They have budgeted their needs; no business could have a more scientific budget. They have united to prevent the possibility of waste and duplication. At least a million dollars will be saved by the fact that thirty individual campaigns are joined in one united effort. And they come to the men or women who love America to you—this week asking you to use them as the channel through which a certain definite part of your income can be be applied to make this a better world. Only you can determine what part of your income that should be. It's a good time right now to answer that question. We're passing through the world just once; how much better will the world be because you passed through? The publication of this advertisement is made possible through the cooperation of thirty denominations. Rare Treat Rev. J. W.

Might just as well say first as last, that no one piece, stocking-less, skirting bathing suits will be permitted at the park pool. Many a man has hung on to a job thrush years of toil and rivers of sweat only to have the thotless say that he succeeded thru luck. Powder runs in five kinds, bug tooth, shaving, gun and high brown. Kiddies in the South are playing in the street barricaded and bare-footed. High cost of clothes does not bother them. The country is disturbed over the fact that women are taking up the tobacco habit. Colored women, especially of the older generation have always been smokers,—corn cob pine preferred. Queer how those Johnsons keep their names in the newspapers. There are. "Try your wrist" is the Chicago invitation to take part in a crap game. Carl Sandberg in his recent book on the Chicago Race Riots exposes the names and address of ten leading gambling house keepers in the State street district. In many instances dice are fixed and cards are marked, but everything has the sanction of the police. Several movements are on foot to organize into a union the household workers of the city. The workers reason why a plumber gets $10 a day, and an expert cook $2.50 is that one belongs to a union, and the other does not. Cooks, maids, butlers, furnace tenders, firemen and house cleaners ought to belong to the union, there is no other way for them to receive the proper respect and consideration. The Commercial Brimley and Tipping Review is opposed to the practice of tipping porters and waiters on Pullman cars. According to the Review, if these men were paid $12 per month by the Company instead of $71 as at present, they would not feel the need of this. The tipping yes-sir-hose type of employee is the result of the tipping system, and any reform that will enable men to keep their backs straight and their eyes off the fround ought to prove popular. The Mayor is putting younger men on the School Board to take the place of the old guard of the Migratory and others. The old guard did not believe in a colored member for the School Board or a colored assistant in charge of all the colored schools. The charge is the best thing that could happen. Inhabitants of the British West Indies are arrested and fined $500 for having in their possession copies of radical American newspapers. This is what comes from living so close to Georgia, Mississippi and Texas. THE SUPREME COURTS DECISION It is not the colored people alone who get behind the film crew cuts of the South. The railway companies in many cases oppose the separate car law on account of the heavy expense of complying with its provisions. The case recently decided by the Supreme Court is an instance of what may be expected from railway companies of the future, which are forced to set off large sections of cars for colored passages only a few colored persons ride. The South Covington and Cincinnati street railway which operates in Ohio and Kentucky resisted the Kentucky statute requiring them to put on separate cars for colored people. They claimed that the state's passions state, and that it would be burdensome for them to furnish separate partitions for their many cars. The majority of the Supreme Court declared that passengers who get on the cars at one point in Kentucky riding to another point in the state would be accommodated by separate compartments. The minority of the Supreme Court declared that $0 per cent of the traffic of the South Covington railway is between Ohio and Kentucky, and these passengers under no circumstances can be forced to ride in separate coaches. The majority of the passengers carried that than six per cent of all the passengers carried by the company are colored, and, on thousands of trips made by cars, no colored passengers are carried. There is, where the railroad's complaint bays. One colored cap, a white one, is the department of six seats reserved for him, while a - hundred or more white passengers in the larger part of the coach are crowded in, some THE APRO-AMERICAN STANDS FOR DELIEGATION From various parts of the State the AFRO-AMERICAN has received communications asking as to where it stands, on the presidential situation. To put this differently, our course candidate does the AFRO-AMERICAN support for the presidency. THE AFRO-AMERICAN believes that the best interests of the people of the State and the country will be served by voting for an uninstructed delegation. NATIONAL GUARDS Secretary Baker called on the colored troops to help him out of trouble in the front line and in the service of supplies during the war, but now he is the author of the un-American order that colored troops can only be enlisted in the National Guards of the several states as Pioneer units. For many years Baltimore has had her First Separate Company while a battalion required a battalion. Illinois and New York with no larger colored population than Maryland were given regiments. Citizens looked forward to the retirement of Adjutant General Warfield as a blessing because they knew that the incoming General Reckard knew of the work of the Maryland troops overseas, and that they ought to have their unit of National Guards reorganized. Here is the situation in Maryland. Take Hagerstown, which is typical. The town has been allowed a company of 100 white guardsmen. Only 45 have applied, and the authorities are using all efforts on their command to get 55 guardsmen a number before Monday next. Maryland is having difficulty in recruiting its white companies up to requirements, and at the same time, it turns down the application of coloned men who wish to join the guards. It is common sense and common knowledge that neither the State nor the War Department has the legal right to close National Guards to any persons who are citizens of the United States. These acts of injustice are perpetrated because the authorities think they can get away with it. Like paying colored teachers' salaries for the same service, the authorities think they can keep colored men out of the National Guards. The worse part about it is that FOR THE PRESENT they ARE doing it. In an "Appeal to the Conscience of the Civilized World" being distributed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, it is shown that in twenty-year period, 1889-1918, 3,224 Negroes were admitted to the United States, of whom 2,522 were Negroes. Fifty of the colored victims were women. Think of presidential candidates talking to Negroes about the League of Nations to bring order into the world when this country cannot keep order in the South. A New York Magazine has come out with the proposal of the name of a colored candidate for President of the United States. That's the way the Prohibition Party got their start. LITTLE THINGS COUNT A little thing like a comma cost the United States government two million dollars recently. Somebody put a comma where it did not be, and Uncle Sam lost enough money in the war. A certain tariff bill provided that "foreign fruit pluples" were to comp into the United States free of duty. The idea was to encourage the growing of fruit trees and grape vines in the South and West. When the bill was printed, it read "foreign fruit, plants" may come in free of duty, and as the result, oranges, bananas, grapes, and lemons were brought into this country for one whole year free of duty to aid the government, lost two million dollars in revenue. A straw once broke a cannel's back. A horsehoe nail cost a ruler his kingdom—it's the little things that count. THE PROPOSED THEFT OF HATI The proposed plan of United States Senator King, of Utah, that this country secure the harbor of Port au Prince, the capital of Haiti, as a naval base, for the United States, is one to be viewed with a keen interest. Against the opposition of thousands of Haitians this country now exercises a virtual control of Haiti that will last until 1836. For it to undertake something that would be strongly opposed by Haitians generally is certainly violative of United States policy and the world, of "self-determination for the small peoples." peoples." The United States dominates the affairs of Haiti and San Domingo through treaties heralded as having been freely assented to by the high contracting parties, but which the West Indian governments deny. It controls Cuban affairs by the Platt Amendment. One fact seems assured, the United States Government cannot prevent the arrival of foreign forces before the world, of no territorial aggrandement if small nations, through the guise of treaties, are forced to give naval bases so that the American nation can stave off aggression from Europe. Suppose Haiti should seek to secure Key West as a naval base for that country, what would American people say. CAMPAIGN BUNK Evan J. David, writing for the managers of General Leonard Wood, has sent out from Wood Headquarters one hundred and forty page volume on the subject —"General Wood on National Issues" In the introduction, Mr. David says: "In compiling this book the object has been to collect representative statements from the speeches and writings of General Wood on national problems. The following are some of the most important problems: Capital, labor, women, the farmer, league of nations, teachers, reds, military training, arbitration and immigration. Not one of these subjects makes mention of problems affecting the eleven or twelve million colored people or the four million colored voters. In General Wood about women voting, he means women in the general sense, and there is no that in his mind that the colored women of the South must vote or else the representation of the Southern States abridged. When General Wood talks about teachers receiving a living wage, he does not mention all of all colored teachers receive lower wages than whites for doing the same service. When General Wood talks about military training, he does not say that in return for the bravery of Negro troops in the wars, they must not be restrained from service in the colonial guards as combat troops. In other words General Wood's campaign talk is the same sort of buncombe that the United States would expect if there were no colored population. There are colored people in the United States—eleven million or more of them. The question of the status of their citizenship is a difficult problem and the culture of General Wood to speak, about it us only further evidence of the practice of men in his position to ask for *folored* support without pledging himself in advance. Nature yields nothing without labor. The mistrusts most easily born are the misfortunes—of others. Work for others that you may have them work for you. Good wishes are the only thing that have not risen in price. Without going into question as to who is right in the Ames controversy it would certainly seem there is sufficient of Christianity in the church to settle its affairs without carrying them to the courts. THE GENERAL CONFERENCES The General Conferences of three branches of Methodism begin their quadrennial sessions next week. At the one of the Methodist Episcopal Church, the question of unification with the Seminary branch will be one of the most important questions debated. The need of two colored bishops for this country will also be urged. The African Methodists will not only have before them questions of primary importance to that denomination and it, large financial benefits along with steps towards bringing about an unification of Colored Methodists and the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Churches. The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, which holds its quadrennial convention in Knoxville, Tennessee is also expected to answer the question of organic union. Unification is in the atmosphere. Nothing else but a unified church of Christ will satisfy millions of Christians and nothing else ought to satisfy them. The church can satisfy them by the aims and hopes of its supporters by tempering with the big problems waiting solution.

Senator "Hirum" Johnson discussed the League of Nations over to the Fifth Regiment Armory the other night, and quite a few persons wore peeved because he did not touch upon the question of prohibition and woman's suffrage. The women must have the right to vote, and the liker question will be settled in the courts. So far as the league of nations is concerned, it is a dead issue. There is that, other little question of Jim grow cars in the South and lynching that "Hirum" might open his eyes to. PREACHERS BACK HOD CARRIERS Washington, D. C., April 29.—The Ministerial Alliance in Communication signed by Reverends W. D. Battle, J. S. Carroll and A. C. Garner backed two thousand colored hot carriers and laborers in their duties for high wages here Tuesday. The communication stated that high wages were imperative and that churches were discouraging scabs from taking the places of the Union men.

Dear friends, I hear the postfice and I heard a white man say he wished every man was dead and he did not be had, and I received from the school saying that they wish Haiti, the Black Republic, would fall in hell and burn up the all the Natives with it. The law is now in this town. And Negro who speaks a word about Haiti must be beat to death. We have not as much liberty as a hog. We have not as much control of men. We often to death, live as he is, heed the men. Men's heads were chopped off, four eyes were plucked out, three stables were seven women were raped. Every plucked out of the twenty-five sent to the mines. All this off, is kept hidden from the public press by white men. A. B. BUDD, D. D. Students Signor Patronesses New York City, April 24.—At the seance,ance of the girls' high school host at the Hotel Margaret last night all but two of the patrones shook hands with the six co-members of the class and took its orders when they arrived. The co-members turned backs so did the colored contingents, and it was a mutual freeze. When supper was served both colored and white partook of it at the same table.

California Free Lance, Wesley C. Peoples Publisher. Says Dr. Brooks Is Man of God— The Following Letter Was Sent to Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, Pastor of Bethel Church. My Dear Dr. Brooks: On the eye of your departure, from this city to attend a great Council of your church, I simply want to say, May God grant you your heart's desire and fulfill it in my belief that the Holy Spirit governs in the selection of men as Ambassadors of God that I would not dare to usurp functions which pertain only to our Teacher and Guide. But this I do know, you are a man of God, and God will own your own. The great 'sensation', which you have wrought through your ability to move more than just little. It is the original aspect of your life, as it has gone, under my observation, which has very greatly impressed me. I love men who have all their ways reflect the lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world. It is because you have a constant association with the Blessed Master, that you have been enabled to attract men to Jesus. It is because of that belief, which you possess, that you have proven such a \*wise and judicious administrator. I do not know whether the Lord wants you to say, but if it is the Lord's will, he will not only bring you through, but will cause you to be as useful in that new sphere, as you have been, to grate in the work of the pastorate. I can only wish for you the richest and greatest blessing that our Father in Heaven can bestow upon you. Faithfully, your friend and brother, GEORGE F. BRAGG Mr. Samuel Hemsley Says He Never Contested His Father's Will.

This salary scale will be changed by the Education Bill just now, but the new bill will not stipulate that all teachers to get nearly twice as much for doing the same work done by teachers in colored school. This is reason, I am hoping two things: First, that the Afro-American will win its right for equal salaries, and second that a way will be found to get rid of the or more or less responsible for this twenty years of injustice we have suffered.

Harry W. Nice at Outley beach last fall. We knew that he was a good man, but we do say that Mr. Nice came to see the voters of this country enmuse not any special or condition. If Mr. Ciplas, Phillip, Andrews and the whole, bunch, did their best to represent this county, would have elected Mr. Nice as governor of Maryland, but they have not advised where their "idol" was when Congress held hearings on the anti-lynching and anti-immigration that should interest every American Negro. I repeat that all colored people are favorable to our present congressional. ROBERT H. HOGS Cambridge, Md. Dr. Budd Takes Colored Members Of Grand Jury To Task For Failure To Urge Investigation Of Riots. After being severely "lambasted," according to the editor who writes the headlines for letters in the Forum, by Wm. E. Ready and others who have thoroughly convinced me of what a terrible thing it was to have white sabots for "Huawaii" cloars. I venture to pass now to another sub- ject is giving me some concern. My agent asked me, then who are appointed on the grand jury from time to time take up some of the problems that vex the colored population and push them thru investigation. I know that the very fact of having a police badge is a safe guard in handling the many hundreds of presentations that come up in special problems that should be handled. For example, policemen killed three colored people last month, from what I know, and the police there was the Biddle street红点. The grand jury should have investigated the gate them should have come from the representative on the grand jury.

Local Party Men Supporting Wood His Campaign Manager Active In Getting Colored Delegates To State Convention Out Of Fight Support Knickman Instead Of Atwood For Congressional Nom With nearly all of the organization leaders lined up behind Leonard Wood, he often trying to make converts for him as Maryland's choice for the presiding officer of the Hiram Johnson, who invaded the State early part of the week. Statewide primaries in the next week were held in Lincoln and Clark white has been meeting the votes in an effort to disregard nomination and vote for the Fourth, where Dr. W. E. Kinnick white, seems to have the organization white for compressive nomination. Interest has been created all over the state, with the New York-Bernard Taylor, of tide city, is one of those aspiring to be named as delegate of large at the Republican National Convention has had this home in Maryland within 20 years and offers of support Taylor from all parts of the State. There are those who assert that the district represented by a colored delegate to Chicago. They also claim more concession for white leaders. Col. John Philip Hill, white, who served in the Third Division, and Congress in the Third Division, is said to have used his persuasive powers to such good use that there was a convention in the First Legislative District. He is said to have first induced John W. Thavers, Travers got out of the white Republican executive of the Warid, Alvin Stanley, of the Third Division, and cambed to the persuasive powers of the colonel, Franklin F. Johnson, of the Third Division, colored delegate from the district. In the 15th ward, Benjamin Hughall filled the names of four colonel men and one white as the ward candidates, precipitating a contest with eleven men in the field.

Robertson, of the 11th district, led the way for Wyatt H. Hunter, who was put in the race by one of the Monarch candidates. The war is the other coohol candidate in the Third district where eight men were elected. Louis H. Davenport and Alexander Williams have locked horns in the 11th district and both are missing. The 10th district is the war, is the only other aspirant in the 11th district. Only six delegates and one air-marshal can be elected from each district. DECISION AGAINST MORRIS FACTION Must File $100,000 Bond To Philadelphia, April 29.—Grand Master Edward H. Morris and his father will no longer be in court because of the Order of Odd Fellows. If a verdict rendered by a jury in the Court of Common Pleas Tort 3, last Friday, will not be adjudicated, defendants will appear to the State Supreme Court. The verdict came after a week's trial instituted by the faction of John S. Noel, of Montgomery, W. Va. is head. Following the meeting of Committees in New York in September 18, the faction headed by Mr. Noel had sought to get an injunction and a rechallenge from the Court of Common Pleas. They were denied on January 17, 1919. Judge W. C. Ferguson, in his impartial charge, said (1) that the police held the calling of the 1918 R.M. C. as right in view of war conditions. (2) That the police elected by the Morris faction are by order the right to call the rival B. M. C.'s were wrong. The, verdict of the jury virtually ousts the Morris faction and says it exceeded its authority in attempting to pass over the 1973 session. The defendants have 25 days from last Friday to file an appeal, but in order to still maintain charge of the affairs of the Order during any continued litigation, they must pay $100,000, none of which can come out of the assets of the fraternity. A prominent member of the faction of the Morris faction said "We are still sitting tight and continue to do so." John Caleboos and William T. Andrews, grand directors of the rival sets of grand officers, were present from Baltimore. LABOR COMMITTEE. Local labor organizations have elected Marion S.

The African League which is working to bring about better relations between the colored peoples of the world. Avenue Theatre First Branch City Council Votes Overwhelmingly to Sustain Mayor's Veto. "FITZ" IN A QUANDRY. Answers "Not Voting" when His Name is Called. Ennis Gives Up. The project to erect a moving picture theatre on Druid Hill avenue opposite the Y. M. C. A., is dead. By a unanimous vote, the First Branch City Council voted to uphold the Mayor's veto. Mr. Fitzgerald answered "not voting" when his name was called. The ordinance permitting the erection of the theatre was passed over Mayor Browning's veto Monday of last week and was then sent to the Second Branch for action. Mr. Fitzgerald moved that action on the bill "deferred." Mr. McMittain objected that under the Charter it had to be acted at once and could not go over. Mr. Fitzgerald then moved that action be "indefinitely postponed" which "would have allowed the First Branch to take it up and dispose of it in the way they have done in Carroll, white 15th ward Democrat, objected that this was too graceful a method to kill the measure and suggested that it be killed in the right way, by sustaining the veto. Following the vote of the Second Branch last week, rumors down town had it that the Council did not give a rap for the Mayor's veto, and Mr. Browning got into action with the result: that Republican members fell into line to uphold him. The Congressman McMittain left the fight against the ordinance and nearly accomplished its defeat last week. To a representative of the African American, Robert Kundis, white president of the Drudl Theatre Corporation, declared last Saturday that his corporation had given up the fight and would ask the Council not to pass the measure, "The Drudl Corporation is through and through to obtain a movie in the 1500 block of Drudl Hill avenue it stands, we just own some property there, that's all. We expect to take our capital and bear it some place where it is wanted." The corporation was ready to our down the two dwellings on the corner of Drudl Hill and permit. Windows and inner doors were repaired some time ago. It is not known what disposition will be made of the property.
