He is an authority on Latin-American conditions, having served as a United States consul in South America from 1806 to 1913.

Catonsville police also told the attorney that it would be best for him not to be seen by one of the Tweedale neighbors. Judge Duncan in one of the strongest documents handed down by the court declared that after sitting in the case and reviewing all the evidence there is a reasonable doubt as to whether Dorsey is the guilty man. Judge Duncan's order is winning praise from all sides because it is known that he comes up for reelection this year, and some of the less thoult have announced that they will not support him. Baltimore and Anne Arundel County were suggested as places where the accused may have a fair trial, but a compromise was affected whereby the new trial will take place before Judges Wortham, Peter and Urner at Frederick.

Bishop Brooks will sail for Liberia, West Africa, by way of London from New York on board the steamer Celtic Saturday, January 15, accompanied by his wife and six workers. Plans call for the building of a modern school in which industrial and agricultural training will be featured; a hospital for the treatment of tropical diseases; development of model native communities under native leaders; setting up of model farms where natives will be taught how to raise staple foodstuffs; and the introduction of the powerboat as a means of communication between villages. According to the bishop the best missionaries are yet to come, and they will come from the schools set up in Africa to train workers on the ground. CONTINUED ON PAGE 5 COL. I GEORGE WILLIAM COOK Dean of the School of Finance of Howard University, Washington, D. C., who announces his retirement after teaching forty years in one school. He served the University as secretary-treasurer for ten years, and wielded such authority that the students jokingly referred to the school as "Cook's University." He is known and beloved by thousands of Howard graduates. Dean Cook owns considerable real estate in Washington and his wife is a member of the School Board. Christmas Game Tuskegee, Ala., Jan. 1.—The heavy football team of Tuskegee defeated Prairie View 7-6 before a large crowd that braved a rain storm to witness the contest. FRIDAY, JAN. 7th, 1920 Salt Lake City, Utah, Jan. 4.—Brown Skinned Prima Singh, aged 46, a Hindu and native of India, Asia, is now an American citizen. His papers were held up for a time because the naturalization laws limit American citizenship to whites and persons of African descent. District Judge J. D. Cull ruled, while Salt Lake City laughs up its sheevs, that brownskinned Singh is "white." TINKHAM MAY TAKE VOTES INTO COURT Threatens Move Unless House Committee Probes Disfranchisement In South CRACKERS RILED Trotter, Johnson And White Pour Hot Shot Into Them During Hearings By I. C. B. (Special) Washington, D. C., Jun. 6.—The Afro was the only weekly news- paper represented at the hearings of the House Committee this week on the charges that colored citizens in the South were disfranchised. James Weldon Johnson, Walter F. White both representing the N. A. A. C. P., Attorney Jas, A. Cobb, representing the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and Monroe Trotter and Morris Spencer of the Equal Rights League and J. Sias Harris were among those who told of lawless conditions in the South during the recent presidential election in which many colored adumptum for paupait aunsoad for to vote. Mr. White who posed as a white man to investigate the Florida riots riled the cracker members of the committee who finally refused to pose for a picture which would include the colored witnesses. Representative Tinkham told the Committee, of which he is chairman by the way, that unless Congress investigated the disfranchement charges and reduced the representation of Southern states, he would take the matter to the courts, even to the Supreme Court. He presented affidavits of ten persons of Winston Salem, N. C., including Mrs. Lula Citridge, Mrs. Ira Henry, Jas. F. Thompson and Arthur C. Neal, who in telegrams to him under date of December 30 stated that they had unlawfully been prevented from casting their ballots in the November election. Representatives Clark and Sears, both of Florida with flushed faces and red noses "allowed" that the South could look after "niggers" without any interference, and that "Northern dudes" referring to the N. A. C. A. P. had done more injury to white supremacy than any other organization. They named M. Bladgett, Dr. J. Seth Hill, T. S. Harris and Dr. W. S. Stevens, whom they said would testify that "niggers" voted in Florida. Clark admitted that 5 colored people were killed in Florida, but "allowed" that the election had nothing to do with it Anti-Lynching Bill Urged Washington. Jan. 5.—Congressman L. C. Dyer has received a telegram from the National Equal Rights Bill asking that he push his anti-lynching bill. BAMPSON BROOKS' FLL SERMON January 10, 1921, at M. E. CHURCH OBJECT RTHER ON" OF DARKEST AFRICA" cordially invited JOHNSON, D. D., PRESIDING CK DOUGLASS, PASTOR Georgia Ku Klux Klan KENNEDY CALVIN CHASE "BEE" EDITOR LAID TO REST A. B. Washington, Jan. 6.—While writing an editorial in his office at 1109 Eye street northwest, William Calvin Chase, for over forty years publisher of the Washington Bee, died suddenly last Monday. He was born in this city 62 years ago. Educated at Howard University, he early entered public life and became a stormy petrel in pollies. His first big break was with Frederick Douglas, who was appointed marshal of the District of Columbia by President Hayes. When Republican senators were reluctant to confirm James Matthews, named by President Cleveland to be Recorder of Deeds at Washington, 35 years ago, he jumped into the fray denouncing them. Matthews was not confirmed, but James Monroe Trotter, rather of W. Monroe Trotter, who was subsequently named, was confirmed. His militancy and bitter pen caused his arrest for criminal libel several times. Mr. Chase was also a practicing lawyer. The deceased is survived by his wife, Mrs. Arabella Chase, who was a student with him at Howard University; son, W. Calvin Chase, Jr.; daughter, Miss Calenitz L. Chase, and five sisters. Funeral services were held at the Ffteenth Street Presbyterian Church Thursday afternoon. Rev Francis J. Grimke delivered the principal address. Fugitives Shoot Seale, Ala., Jan. 3.—Three members of an armed Negro band which wounded a deputy sheffiff and four members of a searching party recently, have been captured.

Lindsay, general manager of the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Company, who is alleged to have obbezzled $22,500, is out on $25,000 bail. In demanding a thorough investigation, the Atlanta independent alleges that other employees of the company must have been in collusion with Lindsay. A. F. Herndon, a wealthy citizen, is head of the company. PEONAGE IN GEORGIA Colored Men Allege Involuntary Service Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 5.—Several colored men have come into the city recently and alleged that there are farms in Oglethorpe county where colored workers are kept in a state of virtual slavery, United States District Attorney Hooper Alexander has promised to make an investigation. ARKANSAS WHITES SUE, SHRINERS Little Rock, Ark., Jan. 1—Almi Temple, Ancient Arab Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, a body of white Masons, have instituted a 'suit against Mohammed Temple, No. 34, Ancient Egyptian Order or Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, an organization of colored men, working under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Council of the same name, seeking to enjoin them from using the name of Nobles of Mystic Shrine and wearing the Fez and other emblems of the order. The white order in its suit alleges that the colored men have no right to use the name and wear the emblems of the Order, and if successful, will put the colored order out of business in the State of Arkansas. Similar suits have been entered in Georgia and in Texas, both of which are now in the courts. If the whites are successful in these cases in the local courts an appeal will be taken to the Supreme Court of the United States. This case is similar to that of the K. of P.'s, in which the white order sought to have the colored organization change its name, but the Supreme Court of the United States refused to put the colored Pythians out of business. From information from the head of the Order, Noble Caesar R. Blake, Jr., of Charlotte, N. C., the case will be fought to the last ditch. San Antonia, Texas, Jan. 2. — The colored Masons of this State, have been in court against each other. C. L. Mitchell, Grand Master of King Solomon Grand Lodge of Texas, won out over Nelson N. Boozer, the plaintiff in the case. The suit was the outcome of an attempt of Boozer to overthrow the administration of Mitchell, last 103 FARMERS IN BALTIMORE COUNTY Washington, D. C.

F. — Governor Miller has commissioned Major Arthur Little, white, to be colonel of the Fifteenth Regiment; New York National Guard. AN APPRECIATION At the end of our first fifteen months of business, we wish to take this rems of thanking those three thousand or more friends, who, despite the natural antipathy to new financial enterprises, made it possible for us to live and successfully complete our first year, by entrusting a part of their funds with us. We also wish to thank the still larger number, who while it may not have been expedient for them to make us a deputy, yet by their words of encouragement contributed in no small measure to our phenomenal growth. We have expanded from an experimental business to one with a main building and a branch, both owned by us; in 8 months we acquired over $50,000 in deposits and from one employee have now fourteen on our pay roll. We have grown so rapidly we have not had time to go into real estate or investments but have been compelled to stick to a straight banking business and will continue to do so. We are always ready to advise clients along business lines and at all times will financially assist colored business concerns conducted along proper lines, but will at no time forego conservation for the sake of possible profits, realizing fully that the money we have is not ours, but is held in trust for our depositors. With the idea of developing Baltimore's colored businesses may we ask that a few of those tens of thousands or colored individuals and societies who carry all of their deposits with white banks, who use the money to develop white institutions, deposit just one dollar with us for the purpose of aiding their own business. 2 7 Cents in Baltimore. rs At Night In Woods.

Representative Makes Application To Join And Exposes Organization DOCUMENTS PUBLISHED Showa:That Line Is Drawn Tight On Jews, Catholics And Colored People New York, an, 6.—All New York is paying toribute to the wit and shrewdness of a representative of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People who made application to join the local Branch of the Ku Klux Klan and then exposed the organization. The representative entered into correspondence with the national headquarters of the organization in Atlanta, Georgia, found out that there were supposedly 300 members in New York and received the following application. He understood that the line was drawn tight on Jews, Catholics, foreigners and colored people. The questionnaire asked: Name; Age; Occupation; Married or single; Were your parents born in U. S.; Jew or Gentile; White or Colored; Colored of eyes, hair, weight height; Do you believe in principles of PURE AMERICANISM; Do you believe in WHITE PREMACY? politics; religious faith of applicant and parents; Of what fraternal organizations are you a member. This questionnaire together with other correspondence from the Ku Klux office was turned over to the Department of Justice for investigation.

PROTEST European Government Not To Comply With Request To Remove Colored Troops From Rhine AMERICA ASSAILED French Deputy Declares Wilson Should Regulate Color Question In His Own Country Paris, France, January 3.— (Special) Even if the United States government should take steps officially to protest against the use of French colored troops in the occupation of German territory, they will not be withdrawn. This is the feeling here following the announcement that Representative Britten of Illinois had introduced a measure in the House of Representatives asking that France he requested to withdraw her colonial troops from German territory, France understands that any such representations must be backed by reasons, and official investigation has proved that the colonists are the best behaved troops on the continent. Speaking in the Chamber of Deputies this week, Deputy Andre Bertson declared he regretted that President Wilson did not recognize the "rights of weaker peoples" by regulating the color question in his own country. "There is no such question among us." "I was pained during the war at seeing American officers refuse to salute black officers who were fighting in the same cause for civilization and justice. Washington, D. C., Jan. 6.—Representative Britten's resolution was referred to the Foreign Relations Committee, where it will probably die. Britten says his petition will carry 20,000 signatures. WILL FIGHT FOR SEATS Colored Men Returned As Defeated For Legislature Institute Contests Boston, Mass., January 6.—The biggest election contest the Massachusetts Legislature has had for years is on here, the contestants being Matthew W. Bullock and Andrew B. Lattimore, colored Republicans, who were returned as defeated in Ward 13 by Frank J. Burke and Timothy J. Driscoll, the present Democratic representatives in the lower house. Bullock and Lattimore declare that every appeal to race prejudice was used by their opponents. "We do not complain of that," said Bullock yesterday, "for they were perhaps within their legal rights. But on the eve of election some one sent to every Negro woman registered in the ward a letter, purporting to come from a state election department, stating that this fake commission had evidence that the recipient was illegally registered, and that she would be liable to punishment if she voted. Hundreds of women were frightened away from the polls by this trick, and our opponents won by less than 200 votes. This illegal act gave the election to the Democrats, and Dr. Lattimore and I believe the Legislature should punish such taceties." : * . t . s P, ms ste Ce ‘ ati ite AERO-AMERICAN a re eS ie S aN S Roa Pps zB este a Bae Bi See Re id Sites ee ee [Senes i Bea YS is Seas ee ati = os 2 a a Bees 2 ee eo ee Q é sar i rae Siete oe ee ees abet es coh Se a Weep e ote oe wth Seg coh tiass gs Shades pase areata 23 Spe ie Sos RD fate ese he seat as malt 3 es PGI tee Jenn Bre RG ein eae nai!

Dec. 5—The General Education Board with headquarters in New York City has recently made a donation of $125,000 toward a total of $500,000 which is now being raised for endowment for Knoxville College, Knoxville, Tenn. One year ago plans were made through the New World Movement of the United Tresbyterian Church for raising half a million dollars for endowment for Knoxville College. Approximately two thirds of this money has been raised in addition to the $125,000 which has been granted by the General Education Board. It is the largest grant that has ever been made, it is said, to any educational institution under the United Tresbyterian Church from sources outside the denomination. Knoxville College was founded in 1576 and has been working for higher education for more than forty years. GUBSON—In loving remembrance of my dear aunt and sister, Mrs. Margarte G.

When the Half-Million Dollar Dunbar Theatre at Broad and Lombard Streets, Philadelphia, opened last December, several of Baltimore's prominent citizens were present. present. All of them were very lavish in their praise of the beautiful theatre, and were all agreed that it was the handsomest theatre in the United States owned and controlled by colored people. And the request was made on that evening that a duplicate of the Dunbar Theatre be built in the City of Baltimore. The management at once began investigating conditions in Baltimore, and were quickly convinced that a first-class theatre in the "Monumental City" would be not only an asset to our people there, but would become a big money-maker from the very start. With that thought ever foremost, we began quietly looking for a suitable location for the theatre, and famously found what, in our opinion, is the best location for a colored theatre in the city. This site is on Pennsylvania-Avenue between Lunalee Street and Lafayette Avenue. It is the desire of the company that the stock be distributed among a large number of investors, rather than be held by a few large buyers of securities, and for this reason the price of shares has been, put at a price at which even the smallest investors may get in on this proposition. investor may get in the way. Colored theatres are no longer an experiment. In every city where a first-class theatre has been erected, success has attended the venture. The character of the performances which will come to the Douglass theatre will be of the same order as the attractions which have been playing in the Dunbar in Philadelphia and the Lafayette in New York with such wonderful success. Here is an opportunity for Baltimore colored people to cash in on the experience which has been gained in the operation of this now famous chain of colored theaters, which is constantly growing in number and importance throughout the country. The facts are here presented in a plain, simple manner. If you are interested in the development of the race along cultural lines, here is your opportunity to do your part in bringing about this condition. Invest in the Douglass Amusement Corporation stock, and help to make the Corporation a success and a distinct asset to the race. THIS SITE—of this magnificent theatre (now in course of construction) is on Pennsylvania avenue between Canvale street and Faddey avenue, and is the best location for a building or this kind anywhere in the city. Is our faith in the possibilities of Baltimore as a theatrical money-maker and we have already commenced the building of the theatre. THIS THEATRE will cost four hundred thousand dollars ($400,000) and will be as THIS THEATRE will cost four hundred thousand dollars ($400,000) and will be as beautiful as the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia. THAT THE colored people of Baltimore may have the opportunity of having a theatre of their own, and at the same time share in the profits, we have organized the Douglass Amusement Corporation, incorporated under the laws of Maryland and Capitalized for $500,000. AT THIS TIME we are offering for sale a limited number o f shares of the 7% Participating Preferred Stock at Ten Dollars a share. Ownership of this stock gives the holder an interest in the valuable property of the Corporation, which will be made profitable by the production of the finest theatrical productions obtainable THE FACT that the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia under the same guidance has been able to pay a dividend of 8% during the first year of its operation should prove conclusively to anyone that this latest venture will pay handsome Dividends to the investor. IT SHOULD NOT be necessary to present any greater arguments in favor of purchasing this stock than the fact that the building is now being erected and the personnel of the management of the Corporations. IF YOU ARE interested in the Race to the extent of desiring a theatre or theatres where yourself or family can go freely and see the finest Broadway productions presented by capable artists, investment in the Douglass Stock will make this possible. IF YOU ARE interested most of all in putting your money in a safe, sound investment, which will pay big returns in dividends, and constantly increase in value, then here is the safest, surest investment offered to the colored people of any city. THE RESPONSE which has come to the efforts of the Corporation thus far has been highly gratifying. Baltimore has rallied grandly to the idea of a theatre for our people and owned by our people.

Respectfully, SAMUEL JENSON, Manager As Justice Is In 'Calliny' The Associated Negro Press Columbia, S. C. Jan. 5.—It is sometimes interesting to see the way police is noted out in the South and to have the story told from the "water fellow" point of view as part of the following dispatches from Rock Hill to the daily newspaper, *Alabama*, Negro, was this morning carried to the chanting to serve a period of 20 days for carrying a plaster. "Whom he lives near Smiths, earned a book of cotton to the ginger-pottery to be ginned. A white man arrived just before and blinded the right to have his cotton ginned first. The Negro is and to have boastfully declared that what it took to get his cotton ginned first, he had it and his scared way of way. While the cotton was being ginned Sheffield state Colonel Johnson died. Her son the Negro was ginned when he was on a train Alen. When the latter stepped into a store and when Chiton came out, he was bagged by the other officers. The Negro had to have remarked to Searfool that he was sorry he did not kill the farmer." Amusement Park Company The Associated Negro Press Gibbons, Ala., Jan. 5.—The Opitary Park and Amusement Company is the name of a new corp- sion which filed papers for in the probate office. E. W. Opitary is president, James W. Robinson and W. M. Young, secretary. The subsumed capital stock is $5,000 and $2,000 of the amount has been paid in according to the papers.

HIAWATHAS 56; JUNIORS 17 The Junior Five Basketball team and its first defeat at the hands of the fast and much heavier team, the Hiawathas of Washington, D.C. The score was 56-17. The game was fast and lively from the start. Both teams showed flashes of the team work. The heavier and more experienced Hiawathas were more than a match for the "Junior Five." The fast and "dead shot" forward Turner was a sloppy as an elk. We caged 12 baskets and his floor work was a big asset to his team. Home, center for the visitors, also was a big scoring factor. The offense was not up to form—they played and did not give up until the whistle for ending of game sounded. Hawkins starred for the local team, caging three baskets and played a hard game. Baskets from field: Turner, 12; Hope, 6; Ellis, 3; Hawkins, 33; Wake, 2; Madden, 1, and Shields, 1; Foukr, Turner, 1; Shields, 2; Foukr, Turner, 1; team of the "Little Five" played the tribes of the Boys' Department and defeated them by score of 22-9.

Jan. 5.—That the South is beginning to feel keenly the reign of hawkiness and injustice with which it has been guilty covering a period of years, is written by the expressions in the various articles. There has never been expression on this subject which has been more above board than a recent editorial in the Commerce, Ga. News, a daily. The discussion was on the subject of Thomas Ray, in Detroit, enduring to prevent his return to Georgia for trial, on the ground that he would be given justice. Quoting the Detroit Free Press as follows: "I am glad I made an impassioned plea for Ray's liberty, declaring that Georgia is the most lawless, ignorant and degraded state in the Union." "That state will not establish schools for fear the Negroes will become educated" he said, and as a result the whites are illiterate and deprived. Georgia has a thing it is impossible to deceive. "The very governor who makes that promise got his position because, as district attorney, he refused to prosecute the men who killed Leo, Frank. What chance has Ray in that state?" The following comment was made by Judge Goff on the point of denying the writ on the point which Ray was brought into court and turning him over to Siskirk L. C. Player, of Wilkinson County, Georgia, when on the plea of Ray's attorney he permitted the taking of testimony as to conditions in whites for use in the supreme court.

Music by the International Jazz Band HARRISBURG 29; "Y" FIVE 12 H. LANGLEY The "T" Quinnet under the supervision of Physical Director Morris, traveled to Harrisburg on last Tuesday to play the All-Jeolians of that city. A very large gathering of rooters greeted the teams as they took the floor, the Baths coming in for a large bit of this, especially of the spectators from Steelton (which is ten minutes ride from Harrisburg) rooted for the team from the Monumental City. Both teams played well during the first five minutes of play. The Baltimore five soon became baffled at the slippery condition of the floor and had quite a time keeping up with the Harrisburg forwards who seemed to know just how to handle themselves on that floor. Fields, the heavyweight forward of the Colegians "got loose" time and again, caged many long shots. The team brought the crowd to cheers by their clever passing, but their inability to have a man uncovered at the basket proved to be their undoing. They also showed signs of clever team work when at the beginning of the second half they put the Colegians up in the air by caging three straight baskets. "Bill" Taylor caged a perfect pass from Dorsey, Langley caged a long shot, then fighting Capt. Dorsey dribbled down from the center of the floor and threw his famous underhand shot in. This sport was not only the first time a referee called a foul on Baltimore. The rest of the game was very fast, both teams doing clever passing but with Harrisburg leading in the swing. Final score: Harrisburg. 29; Baltimore "Y" 12. ST.

SHOULD DROP EPITHETS Chicago University Professor Against Such Terms As "Nigger" and "Wop" The Associated Negro Press Detroit, Jan. 5—It is high time for Americans to cease their practices of calling people of other nationalities "Mickey," "Chinks," "Niggers," "Wops," and "Hunkies," said Dr. S. H. Clark, of the University of Chicago, addressing the open Forum and putting down the habit as "imperiment Anglo-Saxon arrogance and superciliousness." said, "our forefathers got a ship, a friend of the other fellows. I do know that without Japanese formia problem is to be solved, but I do know that without Japanese the desert would not be blossoming as a rose. I know that, class for class, the Japanege is our equal, and I believe the president of the National University of Japan is probably the intellectual equal of President Eliot, of Harvard. "Some of us here who wore our souls in the war who wore White and Blue" don't know the words of America, but call a sturdy Italian newcomer a "Wop." BELLEVUE Bellevue, Md., Jan. 5.

It looks good to see these older men taking part in the athletics at the "Y." The Cub captained by Dr. J. B. Mason defeated the Giants captained by Dr. Wm. Wright 3 out of 5 of West West. The game was played well and many spectacular plays made the crowd applaud. As the score indicated the games were close and at no time did anyone know who would be the winner. It is hoped that a large enough number of professional and business men will enroll in the class to form a local volley ball league. Arrangements are being made to play the Washington Y. M. C. A. W. with sometimes later a picture from this class will go to play Philadelphia Y. M. C. A. and g-t-e revenge for the defeat that was given the "Y" team earlier in the season. NEW YORK HAS STOCK EXCHANGE DURING the past few days every newspaper of your company in New York announced the birth of the Harlem Stock Exchange as one of the greatest events in the history of the colored people. The need of such a stabilizer for colored business has been recognized over since colored men and women determined to run businesses in the war. The two blackwacks that have prevented our people from freely investing in stocks of colored corporations was the inability to secure definite information from a reliable source, relative to the financial condition of any colored company, and the lack of trading facilities. Heretofore, once you were a colored corporation, you could never dispose of same—there was no place to sell the stock. The advent of the Harlem Stock Exchange alters this situation entirely. A market is always provided for any stock listed on the Exchange and arrangements are always kept up and not run down on the market at any old price. The public is being given an opportunity to share in the profits made by the Exchange by commissions etc. No risks are run by the Exchange and the running expenses being almost nil, the chances for a profit are in addition to the 5 per cent guarantee on the preferred stock are assured. Shares sell at $5 each. Many of the most influential colored men in the country are behind the movement which is nation wide and it behooves every colored person to get behind the movement to be a part of the Address: Harlem Stock Exchange, 2169 Seventh Avenue, New York, N.

After the customary preliminary between the "Little Five" and the "Black Sox" the teams were ushered on to the court amid the cheers of the spectators. The team from the town of the inlizies made quite a defection, they rushed on to the bright, crimson-colored Jerseys. The "Y" Big Five then came on, their blue and white Jerseys making quite a contrast. "Chippy" Taylor and "Capt. Dorsey went in as forwards, Langley as center, "Charlie" Powell and Brooks as guards. "Capt," Dorsey drew first blood by a nifty field goal from the side lines which brought the crowd to their feet. "Chippy" was next making a foul, then Langley got loose and made a set-up under the fence. "Chippy" was in favor of the "Y" Big Five. This lead was held throut the game and seemed to keep the "Y" full of the fighting spirit so essential to winning a basketball game. Thomas, the six-foot center of Detroit led in the scoring for his team from the center of the cage. Dorsey and Chipple played an exceptional game at passing, while Langley out-jumped his man at center. Powell and Brook played a stellar game at guard that gives credit to any team and it seems as if the team had cured their services. Except for several kicks registered with the referee by the Star's captain, the game turned out satisfactory. All in all, the "Big Five" showed up better in this game than any before this year and it seems as if they have finally struck their stride and will give good account of themselves during the rest of the season. 3 PIECE SUITS Made to Order $28.00 Coat and Pants $25.00 CLOTH LINING FREE HARRY THE TAILOR 1542 PENNA.

John J. Blake, district deputy, and Edward J. Ryan, another officer confirmed the statement of Mr. Kelley.

Ave. SAM'L MURRAY SECOND Winner Of Third Prize, Mrs. Anna Bowman, Suggests Colored Ku Klux First prize this week for the best fifty word answer as to "What it were best to do if the Baltimore Branch of the Ku Klux Klan paraded down Penna, Avenue?" goes to Charles H. Dorsay, 1312 N. Fremont Avenue. Mr. Dorsey would have every colored person in town out to witness the parade and thereby demonstrate their intention to resist, not to run. He says, "Were the Ku Klux Klan to march down Pennsylvania Avenue, every colored person should be there to witness it, and, if necessary be prepared to offer resistance to any outrage that the Klan may commit. "This will demonstrate that we shall not be intimidated by any of their attempts." Samuel Felix Murray, 1721 Spring street, is the winner of the second prize. He writes "Should the Ku Klux march down Pennsylvania Avenue colored men must be ready to make the supreme sacrifice. This is the main thing the leaders must teach the masses. We must sacrifice to obtain the respect of the other fellow." Mrs. Anna Bowman. 559 W. Cross street, winner of the third prize, suggests the formation of a colored organization to combat information of the white Ku Klux. She writes, "If the Local Ku Klux would march down Pennsylvania Avenue, my suggestion is that the colored people of Baltimore form a Ku Klux Klan and parade down Pennsylvania Avenue too."

As a white man it was natural for me to go to white doctors. And I went to the best in Baltimore. One said one thing, and another said something else about my illness. I tried hostess and grew more all the time. A friend he had cured recommended me to try Dr. David N. E. Campbell, the Lung and Nerve Specialist, 1569 North Carey Street. At first I hesitated, but I finally went to him. After examining me he laughed and said something about my complaint no other physician had ever touched him. He has treated me and made practically a new man out of me. I am now a street car conductor. Since then, he has cured my friend for one year. He has cured another and could scarcely stand or walk. The child now has no more spasms and is running about. The parents are delighted and think Dr. Campbell is one out of hundreds. He has done me wonders, and I am not afraid to tell it. THOMAS A. WEIN.

Large enterp- ses in a number of communities, and it is required to the South. Operations include the starting of a huge fin- to book after investment interests of the re- surance company. Banking institutions for N ia and other communities are projected. It has been an advance all along the line. The year just ending has been one fraught with progress for the race in all sections of the country. Large enterprises have been started in a number of communities, and it is no longer that there are confined to the South. The enterprises include the starting of a huge financial corporation to look after investment interests of the race and a big insurance company. Banking institutions for New York, Philadelphia and other communities are projected. In Baltimore they will be an advance all along the line. AS TO POLITICS sure that the race is gaining more political by the election of colored men to the legislature. Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, West Virginia and Missouri. A colored man was non-professional ticket for Congress in St. Louis and one party for the Connecticut legislature. I am the Republican National platform contender in the South, some effort may be conditions after March 4th next. A large people of Maryland and Virginia showed a political thrashion by running candidate the United States Senate, Henry Lincoln, job candidate National Committeeman for Green An evidence that this race is gaining more political power is indicated by the election of colored men to the legislatures of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, West Virginia, Ohio, Illinois and Missouri. A colored man was nominated on the Farmers' labor ticket for Congress in St. Louis and a woman in the same party for the Connecticut legislature. In view of the fact that the Republican National platform condemned race disfranchisement in the South, some effort may be made to remedy conditions after March 4th next. The colored people of Maryland and Virginia showed that they were tired of political trouble by running candidates of their own for the United States Senate; Henry Lincoln Johnson was elected Republican National Committee for Georgia. --- EDUCATIONAL ADVANCE Colored schools all over the country report an advance along all lines and sentiment seems to be growing for larger school facilities and better trained and more adequately paid teachers. Some slight advance along this line has been made in Maryland. PROGRESS IN CHURCH the colored denominations report program skittered all precedents by electing two M. W. Chair and R. E. Jones—to the Simpson Brooks, who was elevated to the o Methodists last May, has raised the list in this country by his denomination for co-ops work in West Africa. All of the colored denominations report progress. The Methodists sintered all procedures by electing two colored men—Des, M. W. Clare and R. E. Jones—to the bishopric. Bishop W. Samson Brooks, who was elevated to the episcopacy by African Methodists last May, has raised the largest fund ever secured in this country by his denomination for educational and religious work in West Africa. THE RACE ABROAD that Negro peoples in Africa and the W-ing under Caucasian, suppression have men and women of the race, especially the in Haiti. Marcus Garvey launched a big Africans. Reports that Negro peoples in Africa and the West Indies are smashing under Canadian suppression have interested thoughtful men and women of the race, especially the United States rule in Haiti. Marcus Garvey launched a big scheme of Mason for Africans. THE DEATH TOLL John Reaper gathered in his toll such men Bishop C. R. Harris, A. J. Warner, J. W wee and R. C. Bruce, John C. Dancy, Charles Federick Douglass and Joseph Lee, former ce orge of Jacksonville, Fla., Rev. P. C. New rown were among the prominent Baltimore PUBLICANS AND SOUTHERN SUFFE The Grim Reaper gathered in his toll such men as Ralph Langston, Bishop C. R. Harris, A. J. Warner, J. W. Alstork, Evans Tyre and R. C. Bruce, John C. Dancy, Charles Doughlass, son of Frederick Doughlass and Joseph Lee, former collector of journal revenue at Jacksonville, Fla. Rev. P. C. Neal and Dr. Bruce J. Brown were among the prominent Baltimoreans to die. REPUBLICANS AND SOUTHERN SUFFRAGE As was reported in a Washington news-letter to the AFRO-AMERICAN last week, certain Republicans in Congress are disposed to not meddle with Southern disfranchisement, and thus permit the South to continue robbing the Negro of the right to vote. The fact that the Republicans carried Maryland and Tennessee and nearly carried Kentucky in the recent presidential election has made them a little wary on offending the "Solid White South," and they hope that their party will make large gains there among whites, with the Negro still disfranchised. It should be borne in mind that the recent election was an unusual one, and in Maryland, Kentucky and Tennessee, where Republicans made their largest gains below Jason and Dixon's Line, that the colored voters are not disfranchised. Conditions in other States must be remedied, and leading colored men and women throughout the country, along with those of the whites who are sponsors for fairly-administered laws and conditions for all, must keep up their agitation for congressional action concerning the virtual nullification of the Fourteenth Amendment by certain Southern States. It is a notorious fact that Southern suffrage laws are administered with the plain intention of keeping away from the electorate as many colored citizens as possible. Intimidation violence and other drastic methods are used in some instances, and fraud sometimes resorted to. Despite the fact that some Southern Democrats in Congress, as well as a few Northern and Western Republican members, were disposed to make light over the allegations made by James Weldon Johnson, William Pickens, Walter F. White and James A. Cobb, when they appeared before the Census Committee last week to expose Southern conditions, an insistent fight must be waged that national action be taken against these unfair State conditions. Colored voters all over the country should hold their Congressmen and Senators responsible for failure to make the South live up to the spirit of the War Amend- THE LYNCHING RECORD as from one source say there were 620, while those from Tuskegee Institute this was against 83 in 1919, a decree brought out by the figures was that of the victims of mob violence can account of being accused of rape or the figures indicate a genuine disrespects of law, and the added fact those lynched were white indicates the times when a Negro is accused of crime of guilt, and the mob gathers. This nation must be removed, as well as prison or the gallows through the gulture. The best service that news of public opinion can do to bring about violence is to insistently and firmly be treated with fair play along all treatment for the mob shall be as swift the colored man accused and fairly Statistics from one source say there were 61 lynchings during 1920, while those from Tuskegee Institute give only 56. This was against 83 in 1919, a decrease of 22. One fact brought out by the figures was that less than one-third of the victims of mob violence came to their deaths on account of being accused of rape or attempted rape. The figures indicate a genuine disrespect for the orderly processes of law, and the added fact that only eight of those lynched were white indicates that in many communities when a Negro is accused of crime it is presumption of guilt, and the mob gathers. This blot on the American nation must be removed, as well as railroading a man to prison or the gallows through the guise of lawful procedure. The best service that newspapers and moulders of public opinion can do to bring about a cessation of mob violence is to insistently and firmly insist that the Negro be treated with fair play along all lines, and that punishment for the mob shall be as swift and sure as it is for the colored man accused and fairly convicted of a crime. THE HOLIDAY GATHERINGS is a probability that in the holiday season the world over that many did not attend African Negro Academy, the Alpha Phi Fraternity held their annual session the same time colored men of nation prepared before Congress to ask that institution in Congress be reduced, unless a freed men and women to vote on the selections of these gatherings were abolished, highly educated and with the ability could not continue to boast of its depressed of all peoples, unless it rejoices against a class composing one-tenth. These men have all made good use of activities, and should have the ear stand for manly self-assertion and presentations of the Negro's cause in Opinion. There is a probability that in the holiday spirit which prevailed the world over that many did not notice that the American Negro Academy, the Alpha Phi Alpha, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity held their annual sessions last week. At the same time colored men of national prominence appeared before Congress to ask that Southern representation in Congress be reduced, unless that section allow colored men and women to vote on the same terms as whites. The members of these gatherings were all serious-minded men, highly educated and with the vision that this country could not continue to boast of its sympathy for the oppressed of all peoples, unless it removed discriminations against a class composing one-tenth of its population. These men have all made good in their chosen lines of activities, and should have the backing of all in their stand for manly self-assertion and for their fearless presentations of the Negro's cause in the Court of Public Opinion. A. JUDGE'S BELIEF to be rather an unusual proceeding. Of the Circuit Court of Baltimore County, granting Charles H. Brooks a new trial, it is no doubt in his mind that the man is a white woman. It are unduly prejudiced when it comes man for a crime in which a white victim, then how can one expect an in view of such a statement fromems to be sure of conviction again, seeing, even before his second trial beithal, State's Attorney Courtenay J. Lition asking that the case be removed, as he cannot secure a fair trial. The language is a little mysterate is concerned in Baltimore County necessary to secure the conviction of need of crime. Perhaps, there is appeals may successfully prove an alibis, in the recent trial of Brooks. It is county where Snowden and Fountain are listed for crimes, even though there were some as to their guilt, and certainly the imposition of the extreme per It seems to be rather an unusual proceeding for Judge Duncan, of the Circuit Court of Baltimore County, to assert, in granting Charles H. Brooks a new trial, to state that there is no doubt in his mind that the man is guilty of raping a white woman. If juries are unduly prejudiced when it comes to trying a colored man for a crime in which a white woman is the alleged victim, then how can one expect anything but a conviction, in view of such a statement from a jurist. Brooks seems to be sure of conviction again and subsequent hanging, even before his second trial begins. And, withal, State's Attorney Courtenay Jenifer has filed a petition asking that the case be removed to some other jurisdiction, as he cannot secure a fair trial in Baltimore County. The language is a little mysterious as far as the State is concerned in Baltimore County, for it is usually anxious to secure the conviction of all colored men accused of crime. Perhaps, there is apprehension that Brooks may successfully prove an alibi. The alibi was ignored in the recent trial of Brooks. It was in Baltimore County where Snowden and Fountain were tried and convicted for crimes, even though there was genuine doubt among some as to their guilt, and certainly enough not to justify the imposition of the extreme penalty. FACING BOTH WAYS have been real amusing in the French as the other day when a Socialist rallied plea for self-determination for an asserted France ought to follow high-sounding words about self-defense and the rights of minorities. Allowed from other deputies derisive treatment of the colored people in country's attitude in the Phillippines, a country in the world is the doctrine, and Fraternity more generally practiced the thinking people there can buy and insincere attitude of America dealing with its colored population, since that the French people had an idea that Representative Britten, a Congress from Illinois, had introduced the House calling upon France to wipe soops from German territory in order because of justice and humanity." Brandon by the fact that the black troop tangled with white women, as somely. But it is to laugh to see the haken by America in its treatment of it and of the folks in Haiti, while power of the world. It must have been real amusing in the French Chamber of Deputies the other day when a Socialist member, in making a fiery plea for self-determination for the French colonies, asserted that France ought to follow President Wilson's high-sounding words about self-determination for small peoples and the rights of minorities. Then followed from other deputies derisive remarks about the treatment of the colored people in America, and this country's attitude in the Philippines and Cuba. In no other country in the world is the doctrine of Liberty. Equality and Fraternity more generally practiced than in France, and the thinking people there can but laugh at the hollow and insincere attitude of America and Great Britain in dealing with its colored population. We surmise that the French people had another laugh when they read that Representative Britten, a Republican member of Congress from Illinois, had introduced a resolution in the House calling upon France to withdraw its colored troops from German territory in order to promote "the cause of justice and humanity." Britten's fear was occasioned by the fact that the black troopers may become entangled with white women, as some, no doubt, have already. But it is to laugh to see the hypocritical attitude taken by America in its treatment of its own colored people and of the folks in Haiti, while posing as the moral leader of the world.

Both he and the mule could not even be found by Burnst detectives. A REASSURING SIGN nting of a new trial to Charles H. D. tapping a white woman, is somewhat since grave doubt existed about the Wyden and Isaiah Fountain, both of w The granting of a new trial to Charles H. Dorsey, convicted of raping a white woman, is somewhat reassuring, especially since grave doubt existed about the guilt of John Snowden and Isaiah Fountain, both of whom were convicted at Towson and later hanged for alleged crimes against white females. The identification of Dorsey was not sufficient to establish his guilt, as Judge Duncan points out in granting Dorsey a new trial. Then the jury which convicted him ignored witnesses which were called to establish an alibi. Judge Duncan, in granting Dorsey a new trial, condemns judicial murder in the following language: "That her assailant (the white woman's) should escape would be most deplorable; that an innocent man should go to his death would be a tragedy; for an accused to go to his death where there was reasonable doubt of his guilt would tend to create a feeling that the lives and liberties of our people cannot be safely entrusted to our courts of justice." Notwithstanding the clear-cut reasoning of Judge Duncan, State's Attorney Jenifer, following the granting of a new trial, filed a motion for a change of venue, alleging that the State could not get a fair trial in Baltimore County. Merely a Difference of Opinion. Merely a Difference of Opinion. When it comes to Mr. Garvey's industrial and commercial enterprises there is more ground for doubt and misgiving than in the matter of his character. First of all, his enterprises are incorporated in bewareance, where he is responsible for statements where no financial statements are required. So far as I can find, and I have searched with care, Mr. Garvey has never published a complete statement of the income and expenditures of his business, whether or of the black star line or of any of his enterprises, which really revealed his financial situation. A courteous letter of inquiry such as the one of 1920, asking for such financial information, was willing for the public to know, remains to this day unacknowledged and unanswered. --- This is a serious situation, and even this does not tell the whole story: the real estate, furniture, etc., listed above, are probably not the boats! The Yarmouth is a wooden steamer of 1.425 tons, built in 1887. It is old and unsuspecty; it came near niskirting a year ago and it has a great worth, and it will soon be laid up for repairs with a large bill due. Without doubt the inexperienced purchasers of this vessel paid far more than worth, and it will soon be utterly worth it and will exhibit its high cost. The cases of the Kamwuha (or Antonio Maceo) and the Shadyside are puzzling, and it seems as belonging to the Black Star Line at all. The former is recorded as belonging to C. L. Dinion, and the latter to the North and East. River Steamboat company, it owns both these boats, or is buying them by installment, or only buying them. We do not know the facts and have been unable to find out. Under the circumstances they look like dumbies. 0 0 0 Garvey himself tells of one woman who had saved about four hundred dollars in gold: "Who brought me to the Cunal Zone? I was sent to the in the Black Star Line." Another man writes this touching letter from the Cunal Zone: "I was sent to the Cunal Zone with $125, (number of certificates $752 and $617). Now I am sending $55 for seven more shares. You might think that I am not a banker, but I stated because is that I have to money now. But If I'm to die of hunger it will be all right because I'm determined to do all things to better the conditions of my race." . . . On the other hand, full credit must be given Garvey for a bold effort and some success. He has at least put vessels manned and owned by black men on the seas and they have carried passengers and cared for them. He does not know the shipping business, he does not understand the investment of capital, and he has few trained and stunned assistants. The present financial plight of an inexperienced man in the foreseeable future decide the fate of the whole movement. This would be a calamity. Garvey is the beloved leader of tens of thousands of poor and bewildered people who have been cheated all their lives. His failure to save a faith and a loss of their little savings, it would take generations to undo. . . . Then too Garvey increases his difficulties in other directions. He is a British subject. He wants to trade in British territory. Why then does he needlessly antagonize and even insult Britain? He wants to unite all Negroes. Why then does he-sincerate at the work of the powerful group of his race in the United States where he finds asylum and sympathy? Particularly, why does he decry the excellent and rising business enterprises of Harlem—intimating that... his schemes alone are honest and sound when the facts fatly contradict him? And, finally, without arms, money, effective organization or base of operations, Mr. Garvey openly and wildly talks of "Conquest" and of telling white Europeans in Africa to "get out" and of becoming himself a black Napoleon! To sum up: Garvey is a sincerely hard-working identist; he is also a stubborn, dominating leader of the mass; he has worthy industrial and commercial skills and is an experienced business man. His dreams of Negro industry, commerce and the ultimate freedom of Africa are feasible; but his methods are rigid, ineffective and ineffective and almost illegal. If he learns by experience, attracts strong and capable friends and helpers instead of making needless one-man acts, he suspicion and substantiate open and frank reports as to his income and expenses, and above all if he is willing to be a co-worker and not a czar in his accomplishment. But unless he does these things and does them quickly he cannot escape failure. From the Negro World, Saturday, January 1, 1921 The January number of the Crisis Magazine contained a four-page article by Dr. W. E. R. Dudley on Marcus Garvey. The first half of the article is devoted to a discussion of the second half is devoted to Mr. Garvey's industrial enterprises and the feasibility of his general plans. The article follows the general line of Dudley's article, which discusses of a Negro brain, per hand. It is 15 per cent criticism and 25 per cent appreciation. . . . A brilliant student of sociology a literary genius, a man of letters. Dr. Detroit could grace a chair in any university's library to mingling with men and dealing with practical affairs, he sometimes strikes the wrong note. When he taught in Wilton, University in New Hampshire, and when he gathered facts in Philadelphia for sociological study he could rarely get close to the heart of the colors of the "Moon" and the "Horizon," did not pan out well. His Niagara movement died a natural death. It was not until a few Boston and New York students under his nails and threw around him the prestige of their wealth and fame that he was able to make the Crisis and the N. A. A. movement withdraw their support and prestice the Crisis might go the way of the "Moon" and the "Horizon" and the N. A. A. C. P might be the way of the Niagara movement. As we study the personality of Dr. DuBois, we find that he only appreciates one type of man, and that is the cultured, refined type which linger around universities and universities of dynamic force of the Negro race, the men with ability to seey and move the musses. Dr. DuBois cannot appraise at their face value, and that is why the author of the "Souls of black Folk," while the role of the drawing young musses is far far from being the popular leader of the musses of his own race. --- To read Dr. DuBois' statement about the Black Star Line, one would imagine that no business concern ever made mistakes and anything was always smooth sailing. It took the Crisis, backed by millimeters, by the N.A. Negroes and edited by a distinguished scholar over five years to become self-supporting. Suppose some over-inquisitive critic, before the N. A. A. grand an accounting and ask how much the philanthropists and Negro public were forced to contribute annually to keep the N. A. A. grand, what would DuBois have said? . . . As a matter of fact, history is not made by the hypersensitive cities of the type of Walter Pater, Mark Pattison, Coventry Patmore, Prof. George Santayana and Dr. Robert F. Koehler, like Garvey, men of faith and vision, men of one idea, who have thrown their whole personality to words the realization of that idea, have been the markers of history and will be as long as men are men, created in the divine image of God, living a spiritual life. It was not the doubling Thomas but the crushing Peter and Paul, who launched Christianity upon its world career . . . Dr. Dubois is undoubtedly right when he says that there is no necessary antagonism between Carvey and other Negro leaders between the U. N. I. A. and other movements for racial uplift. DuBois appeals to the "Talented Tenth," while Carvey appeals to the "Oil Pollution." The N. A. A. C. P. appeals to the Beau Brumwell Lord Chesterfield, kid gloved, silk stocking, creased trousers, patent leather shoe, Bird of Paradise hat and Hudson seal coat with beaver or skunk collar element, white the U. N. I. A. appeals to the sober, sane, serious, earnest, hard working man, who earns his living by the sweat of his brow. The N. A. A. C. P. appeals to the cavalier element in the Negro race, while the U. N. I. A. appeals to the seller, yeomanry, Hence, in sense are Dr. DuBois and Mr. James Weldon Johnson rivals of Marcus Garvey. DuBois and Johnson as writers and speakers and Carvey as prophet, prograndist and organizer and inspirer of the masses are doing good work and as should be free and unimpeded in perfecting their plans. The only objection that we have had to some of the Caucasian philanthropists behind Hampton, Tustegue and N. A. A. C. P. select, was that they did not because they elevated those Negro leaders who they thought were safe, sane and conservative and whom they could manipulate, but because they attempted to suppress those radical Negroes who manifested initiative, individuality and regardless of their intellectual attainments and achievements and their worth as men. Reduction of Southern Representation (William Pickens) The number of representatives which a state can have in Congress and the number of votes which it can cast for president is based on the population of the state—one representative or vote for each specified number of people, provided, however, that each state shall have at least a population all the potential citizenship is counted, men and women and children, even the disfranchised portion of the population. This gives the South with the disfranchising arrangements against colored people, a great advantage in the relative population of its white Democratic population. Take for example South Carolina, Mississippi and Georgia. In these three states together half the population of these states in Congress and half of the votes which they cast for president in the electoral college are based on the votes they receive. They recognize their colored people, each white man in these states has the voting strength of two men, even if every white man in the state should vote. But if, as is usually the case, some of the white people are also disfranchised or grow indifferent as a result of the outstay of the Coptic then each voting member may have the vote for one or two or more voters in other states. The South has always enjoyed such advantage. Before the Civil War Amendments? the constitution gave the South a third-fifth vote for every slave. The tragedy of this is plain: the slaves gave the master class in Congress extra power to use against the freeing of the slave. The cloaked Negro is in the plight; for he counts us as fifths, and this whole vote is in the hands of those who must to keep him disfranchised. UNI The 14th Amendment, foreseeing this effort to disfranchise the freed Negro, decreed that any state which disfranchised any of its people, should in proportion to such disfranchised number lose its Compromise Section. The Fifteenth Amendment, foreseeing that some very rabitable state might decide to disfranchise its Negroes and accept the loss, went further and declared that it shall be unlawful for any state to discriminate against its citizens on account of the repression of Congress power to enforce them by appropriate legislation. Practically the whole colored population in a number of Southern States is today disfranchised. And the question now among colored people and others who favor their citizenship, is whether Congress should reduce Southern representation in an effort to maintain the law of the land, in which such colored man and his citizenship rights, There is naturally some difference of opinion even among colored people. Dr. Du Bols, editor of the Crisis, has been for a number of years a consistent advocate of reduction. This write of this article has always with Dr. Du Bols. as its author. It is our argument, state all the arguments, from the colored American viewpoint, both for and against reduction. In favor of reduction it must be conceded: 1. That it would lessen the national power of the state which disfranchises its colored people, and so lessen its power to perpetuate that disfranchise. 2. That it would make it more difficult to extend disfranchisement to any other state, inasmuch as such state would have to consider the very interesting question of its prospective loss of power as a state. 4. That it would revive those almost dextral amendments to the constitution, and give a recognition to the black man's human and citizenship rights which would impress the whole country and the world. 5. That, as a consequence or consequence of this it would temporarily lose the power of the states which are inexcerribly opposed to the equal citizenship of colored people, would make it harder to legislate against the Negro as a race anywhere, especially in Congress, and easier to get certain solemly needed national legislation, like anti-slavery and anti-Jimmy Negro vote of the free states a greater proportionate weight against the unlawful opposition to his race. Against reduction it is said: 1. That it would license the South to disfranchise the Negro by permitting it to pay the concessional fee. 2. That it would encourage other states like it to disfranchise Ohio, where the Negro political strength is getting to get rid of it by following the example of the South. 4. It is a presupposition of all these objections that the disfranchising state would be permanently satisfied with the reduction of its representation and power in the nation. It seems clear to us that the reasons in favor of reduction can stand on their own feet, while these possibilities alleged against it must depend upon the correctness of the calculation that any state would be permanently satisfied with reduced power. And if any state be so determined to continue disfranchisement as to do so under penalty, would not such state be surer to continue disfranchisement if there be no penalty at all? And would it not be better for New York in a state so determined to reduce power in question? In spite, however, of distant declarations of incorrigibility, we must consider human nature in intermediate South Carolina of the present generation may assert that his state will accept a representative before it will allow colored people to vote there, but he cannot speak for the next generation. A future generation in South Carolina would most likely refuse to cut off its nose to spite its face, and after the heat was passed and the matter had become history, there would be a reasonable attitude to allow colored people to vote who ought to vote. Else human nature would have to change: for both the Negro and the state would have an interest in his vote. Let us briefly consider these objections. How could it "license" the South to disfranchise the Negro? Could it be worse if a state was made to pay deeply for the wrong which it now does without paying? Will the South more likely become right if it costs nothing to continue to be wrong? What is there in human nature to lend will to conclude that the wrong doer will be more inclined to get rid of his wrong doing when it costs him no hurt, but much less inclined to be rid of it if it hurts severely? These questions themselves Another fear is that if the South is permitted to pay the price and cost the Negro, other states whose whites may grow fearful of his political prestige, will do the same. But will not those other states follow the South's example sooner if they are permitted to disfranchise the Negro with impunity? Will Ohio not follow in the footsteps of South Carolina when it costs nothing, but be tempted to follow when it costs dearly, name of human nature, a criminology. Since he will have made this offense a lancing crime, I think I will commit it just to get hung! It is our opinion that if Ohio faced the prospect of losing even one representative by disfranchising its colored voters, there would be less reason and much less temptation to disfranchise them. Ohio would reason like this if we disfranchise the colored people because they can elect one representative, we will lose that representative, who is usually white, and not giving. For that they is always the added probability to large enough to give the state one more representative, will be scattered among the districts that the colored people will not have a majority vote for any one representative. Then there is a fear in many coloured who are suspicious of almost any political move to "help the colored brother,"—and for good reason: that such action by Congress would tend to acknowledge and even to confirm the decitizenizing of colored people. That fear is based on a misconception of law and punishment. Because court dismisses, injures, and even annihilates an individual who violates the license him to continue it. It does not even estop the court from inflicting other and greater penalties if the wrong is continued. If Southern representation were reduced under the Fourteenth Amendment, that by no means estop the court from applying the Fifteenth Amendment and compelling the state to allow the Negro his his right to vote, or the other hand, the application of the penalty right to. But on the other hand, the application of the penalty under the Fourteenth would make it all the more easy to enforce the Fifteenth, inasmuch as the signing state would be deprived of part of its votes in Congress—of part of its power to oppose the enforcement of the Fifteenth. Because we punish a slave for entitlement to the property nor deprives a victim of its rights. Because we punish a state for violating the rights of its citizens, that does not declare that the citizens are not citizens. If Congress compels Alabama to give up five of its votes in that body, it does not nullify the constitution declaration that "all persons born or naturalized of the United States are free and of the United States they reside." An act of Congress does not alter the constitution. To enforce law is not to abrogate it. But there is no reason in the assumption that the disfranchising state will decide and permanently hold to its decision to give up its power rather than conform to the fundamental law of the land. To make reduction of representation objectionable to the Negro, the state should be not merely just as willing to disfranchise the Negro when the state is penalized but Willing; for it must just as willing as before, it would be still as willing as before, the Negro that such should lose some of its power and be Less Able to wrong him. And especially should such state lose that part of its political power which it derives from the physical presence of the Negro. But there is nothing in human nature to justify the opinion that reasoning men will continue to choose the wrong even at a cost. Of course men always threaten' and bluster when the move is first made to deprive them of their "right" to do wrong. The slaveholder of 1850 swore by all the eternal stars before ever he would live in "microns". Reduction of its representation in proportion to its distranchissement of colored people, would certainly strip the present South of its political power in the nation. Southern white people could never again be the main resource for elociting and national administration,—until they and their colored people made up their minds to co-operate in the doing of it. That section would immediately begin to be less "colored" and for the short space in it would by a natural reaction seem to become more solid, it would nevertheless be much smaller and less dangerous. Not only the interests of the Negro be advanced but the interests of civilization in America and especially in the South would be made more secure. And If Southern representation is reduced, the Negro can easily afford to wait on all these" desiderata.

The effect of the contrasts of color was never glaring, but agreeable in extreme. In the distance were a large buildings, with extensive places in front, which I after we learned were public buildings, a library, a meeting hall, a camera which more will be said, and amusement hall, or theater. Nine each house, at the side or rear, was "He was our first man of command and genius, both as an inventor and organizer and executive, and we all took back to him as our Moses, who delivered his race from bondage, her men there had been, in the lists of antiquity, who had done their part in preparing who then to take advantage of the great opportunities that came to them through addresses, men who had already aided the industrial development of the ice, but their merits were so overawed by the genius of Andrews at the accounts of their lives seen most mythical. One such man I remember was named Bookery, and oddough one for a Negro. He was one of the first." "You mean Washington—Booker T. Washington," I said with some heat. May, he is living now.

Substitute them in no use with this corsets, cool apparent level-headed Negro, and so I gave up and he went on. After the formation of our Negro matters continued to go from front to worse. Cases of friction were numerous enough to keep us constantly hot water. Many years chapped for we discovered and gradually minated one of these causes, one of most potent ones; namely, the infusion of white blood with which we cursed. During the centuries we lived in close association with whites there was more of place of separation taken place in amalgamation of the races, and we were many persons with white blood, in their veins who cast in their with us—were forced, in fact, to so many of them much against it will. It dawned upon us very usually that most of the criminality our people was contributed by. Negroes of mixed race who was convicted by the recourse in a distinguished physician, Dr. Samuel King, that final tendencies in our population cannot only confined almost entirethous of mixed blood, but by being the ancestry of hundreds of with the most minute particuliere demonstrated beyond a law of doubt that the blood of the grand not of the black war to be.

The whites, by contrast,gressions, indicated very that segregation was not sufficient that they were bent on extinction. Only one thing seemed work for a time in our war, the desire of the whites to pass on the secrets of those they knew we were masters, so they did away with us. They not wish it to die with us, and so as we were still in a position to lift it against them, we had an image that they found it difficult to intend against. But there came one when their passions could not be controlled, and a slight预示ed to raise the cry of the whites, and the consequences were momentous in the history of the 19th. Before I proceeded to give your account of it, I must relate about the changes that had place in the government of the world. are he paused for a moment, the most of the previous hurricane, but it became so dire in my mind that I am sure I have written the substance of it correctly. Attention had been more or less reduced by the scenes that unified solves before my eyes. I have described in a few words the real character of the landscape, now for an hour or more, in the mood of the early morning and re-emission from the fatigue of the preceding. I was able to observe itself. The houses and one story, were scattered and there in no apparent order as the vision could reach, was no appearance of crowding there were no walls or fence writing the plots from each other. I could there appear to be an fountain here and there in an hour, and some lines of commuting house to house were more used than others. Marsh houses were colored, not purely showing reddish, blush- "An air-car, our only means of communication and travel, I will explain it presently, when I have finished this historical sketch, which is a necessary preliminary to the revelations I have promised you." With a sign I resigned myself to what I expected would be another intermutable sentence in the virtues of the air-car, the first by giving me some unexpected information about my own country and people. CHAPTER VII THE GREAT CIVIL WAR Anders died in 2118, and the autobiography of the races culminated about a hundred years later in a war that lasted more than two years before it ended in the total defeat and humiliation of the whites. I have given you a short account of the development of the Negro for the precolumbian hundred years, and now we come to the whites. The great republic of the West and endured more than a hundred years before the seeds of its dissolution were planted. This has been paved in your own time, when the United States became possessed of colonies, and ruled millions of men subjects and not citizens. There were a few wise men, even at that time, who needed the knowledge of history that the colonial of a republic always began with it, it required colonies and read over subjects who were allowed to share in the general government but were locked upon as aliens who are not citizens and treated as such. No republic can have subjects who are not citizens and endure. And so the chinua in the great white republic set in, to the dismay and sorrow of the champions of freedom throughout the world. "But I must pass over the interruption years with the bridest possible sketches. Ever since the great civil war there had been a perceptible trend to a greater civilization of power in the Federal of central government and an increasing tendency toward encroachment upon the powers of the separate States. There were occasional political convulsions in which this judicial tendency appeared to meet with a check, but its course was never reversed and its onward sweep was the whole a steady one. From some degree of authority from the written constitution of the nation, in their anxiety to provide for every contingency that could arise and inserted two provisions, which colored the whole nature of the republic and as gradually interpreted and amplified, by the courts, were finally quoted in justification of all the centralizing legislation carried through by those who called themselves the National Party, the successor of the former Republican Party, with some additions from the party of the people who still called themselves Democrats. There two provisions were the following, as nearly as am able to quote them, for this is a pretty history and I am not much of a scholar in such matters.** "The first was that, Congress was empowered to force, for the general welfare and the second was that the rights not especially granted to the right government, were not forbidden to the States, were reserved to the States in respect to, or to the people. These two Constitutional provisions, it was held by the Nationalists, virtually did THE AFRO-AMERICAN MA War Pr SHIRBY HOL IAN'S r Predic BY HODGE By T. SHIRBY HODGE for its foundation, by a most unconstitutional line of unpunished uphold by subservient kins who had deprived the Negroes仕 in Congress and cast any share in the government. They formed an isolated ponderous body of militant tortures and eventual termination. Better die in battle than at the stake was the uppermost thought in every mind, and we began to gird ourselves for war, it must be confessed, with sinking hearts. "The whites had gathered their forces for the campaign, and we had planted our army in advantageous positions on our borders, when a new spirit ran through the nation like an electric thrill. Brown and the lieutenant had for years been quickly working for the army, which would hurt missiles with tremendous energy by means of centrifugal force. Andrews' invention gave us our force, unlimited in amount, and it had been utilized in these new field pieces in such an ingenious and effective way, that we were proud with artillery and superior to our opponents, but that required no explosive for its operation, and no ammunition but the missiles themselves. The disparity of forces was very great. Our people numbered some 200,000, while our antagonists were able to recruit their army from a population of nearly or quite 200,000,000, besides auxiliary forces they might draw from the colonies, or outlying possessions. Moreover, the feeling of antipathy had spread to some extent over the remainder of the Western Hemisphere, and there was some appreciation on our part that other nations might join our foes in their work of extermination. Our only hope seemed to lie in striking at once with a force so powerful, so well organized and so advantageously maneuvered as to strike terror into the minds of our opponents and deter others from coming to their aid. Plan was followed out, and Brown only waited until the army of the whites was within striking distance, swooped down upon them with all the forces he could master. Our infantry hardly fired a shot. The work was done by artillery. The range and efficiency of our new gun was superior to any they were able to bring against us, that their case was really benign from the start. "As they advanced toward the frontier they were met with a perfect ball of bullets and cannon balls, which filled the air and mowed the soldiers down in swathes. The swarms of flying machines which darkened the air in their front and which they anticollid, would work have, with our army, were torn to pieces as they flew and the explosives that were to be dropped upon our armies and towns fell upon their own men and only served to increase the dreadful slaughter. "It is not necessary to go into the horrible details of what followed. The advance was checked, and soon turned into a rout. Brown and his army pursued them hotly. Army after army was raised, for the whites never lacked courage, but as defeat after defeat reduced their numbers and their llege ge Poro College 25,000 MORE PORO AGENTS WANTED Equipped with the Very Latest Apparatus for Teaching the Poro System of Scalp and Hair Culture and all Branches of Beauty Culture Terms Moderate Diplomas Given Write Today for Further Information PORO COLLEGE Poro Corner St. Louis, Mo. away with the state lines and all necessary for state governments and committed the entire body of legislation, only uphold by subservient to Congress and people as a whole, voting under what they called a referendum in the triumph of these principles ended in a practical wishing of the States, although their dis- thative names were retained and occasional elections were held at which Governors were chosen, whose functions were nil, and who held a more temporary position, somewhat like those of the Consuls after Rome had become an Empire." "One moment please," I said. "I am sorry to interrupt you, but you are getting too fast that I should like to learn more details of my country's transformation before you go on." "What I can tell you, I will, but as I have already said, I am my scholar." "Tell me was my eager reply, what ever became of the woman suffrage movement and the Panama Canal, both of which were just developing when this unfortunate aberration of mine began" ties, but among themselves they preserved the forms of free government in which they had been trained, and termed in 2200 the only genuine republic remaining upon the surface of the earth. With the whites democracy had reached its zenith, and the swing was again running strong toward absolutism. "Meanwhile we had developed rapidly. Under free institutions, ambulients, determined, entirely rid of any admixture of white blood, with intense industrial, advancement, thanks to the legacy of George Andrews, we had so increased in wealth as to exert the capacity of our neighbors, who finally and appropriately exterminate us and appropriate our rich hands to their own use. Some of our wise men had foreseen such a development, had watched the signs beyond the border for many years, and knowing that "Aberration," he said, with a father's smile, "you will find you are sufferer from no aberration. But about your questions. I cannot answer them. I do not know enough. Those things belong to the minutiae of history and are only for scholars. When we have finished what we have on hand, I will take you down to the public library, and you can ask the man in charge who is a very learned man, and if it is not able to tell you what you want to know, will unobviously be able to refer you to volumes in his charge that will answer everything. But let us now return to our subject. "The United States has become practically an empire, although they still call themselves a republic. But the President often served for life, and was discovered in one of our manufacturing towns." although the office had not become hereditary, it was a common thing for him to name his successor, in accordance with a precedent established I believe, in your own time, by a President named Teddy. So far as governmental functions were concerned, the independence of the States had been abolished and all legislation enumerated from Washington. For the capital of the nation had never been moved. Moreover the executive had gradually absorbed most of the powers of the legislature. The government succeeded laws and ordinances to Congress, which simply registered his degrees and so made them blink upon the courts. The great republic had slowly haged into very much the condition of the Romans in the second century, and although the people were fully conscious of the loss of their liberties, they were satisfied with the material prosperity that enveloped the nation in a downy covering of luxury and case. There were no more wars. The nations were all at peace, and the whites all over the world had nothing to divert them from their overmastering pursuit of wealth, which they looked upon as the most desirable thing in the world. "They had long ceased to intercourse with the blacks. The Negro State had been extracted from slavery, and before many years had resources, although their dogged determination prolonged the conflict unnecessarily, they finally sued for peace. It was a terrible humiliation for the proud and arrogant race, but there was no other way to avert practical annulation, and they had to come to it in the end. The terms we granted were unprecedented in the history of the conflict, no number of territory and no indemnity. We had come out of the contest almost unscathed, but filled with indignation at the treatment we had received, and inflexibly determined to break off forever all relations with the race that had treated us for hundreds of years with the utmost injustice and contempt. We demanded that they should assume the expense and provide the means for the transportation of the entire population of the Negro state. 20,000,000 of them, to the interior of Africa where we are at the heart of the conflict by propaganda extending through a long series of years among the native inhabitants. "To their credit, he is said, the terms of the agreement were religiously carried out. They employed a fleet of about 1,000 vessels in the work and in less than two years the great migration had been completed. As had been the case with our former migration, 200 years before everything that could possibly give the white any advantage in prosperity and power was destroyed before we left the country, and all the machinery and appliances we took with us on the transport had been so completely dismantled that no mechanical genius among the whites could divine the uses or the relations of the multitude of parts. Most of our accumulations of property were left behind, only being carried with us to our new home to take its own necessary to get fairly started again. And so we came back to the land of our ancestors, and here we have remained ever since." "But how about these extraordinary and hairraising things that you were to demonstrate to me?" I said, still incredulous and still unable to divert myself of the tone and manner of a superior. Do not worry, my friends; that will come in due time and the time will be very short now, for our life in Africa has been for thousands of years so unceventful that I shall have little more to tell." CHAPTER VIII THE NEW PHYSICS "As soon as we were settled in our new home, we organized a government, a republic, like that we were accustomed to in the country we had abandoned, and for many years affairs ran smoothly enough. Gradually it became noised about that we had another great genius in our state, a worthy successor to George Andrew, who had given us our first great discovery, although it was dependent upon that of Andrews and a legitimate development from it, was still more astonishing—in fact, it was the most surprising discovery that was ever made, and it is highly improbable that anything so wonderful and important will ever be discovered, in the future. The inventor, or discoverer, whichever you and had been named after our obverse, was a great military leader, Josiah Brown, genius, whom Brown advanced profoundly, George Andrew s. Brown. As a boy he had been so erratic in his views and so willing to expound them whenever he could find a listener, and moreover had been such an intermidiable tailor, that his companions had made an acoustic from his initials, and used to call him 'Gab' Brown. As he manhood his disposition altered to some extent and he became more re LET ME HELP YOU LET ME HELP YOU tistent and mediative, but the nickname always stuck to him. He had conceived the idea of his invention before we left the United States, and had it perfected in a short time after our arrival here. "And now I will tell you what it was, and because you will undoubtedly disbelieve what I say, I am prepared to demonstrate its truth upon the spot. "He discovered that, by a slight modification of the alloy invented by Andrews, and the utilization of some simple, though novel, mechanical means, he could not only produce magnetic insulation, but could suspen- sions, or cut off, or insulate, the air."

Cary) A CHAT ON BOYS It's "Boys Week" in Baltimore! ever before has such a week been ob- served. Today there are some people who have not been willing to gobble down polished "the statement that the boy is a 'young dill'-they don't think so, and they didn't think so when they first heard in. They liked the boy's well to believe any truths as about him, and so they started to investigate—to see to learn—help—to work with the boy and learn his viewpoint, these people that become interested. Do Life and have and are doing their best to help the boy succeed are known by various terms. We call one Scoutmaster, others we call Y. A scoutmaster, others we call A. With scoutmaster, others we call boy scouters, other we call director scouters, but there's only one main aim. Let way "Blogs Work"? Well, be the U.S. Army has just barely begun, its scarcely started—but it already made indications then the arrows pass for "Boy's Week" in all that show that the light—to make it to buy a better boy is on course. With our boys, the boys of our race must sound "Boy's Week" meant any U.S. First it should start in a boy's home. There are certain things that James of Johnne or Harry, he has agreed that he has worried the mother always speaking of his "wants" after Roberts, mother goods, James being or Harry cannot just and have what he wants. He is warranted, and this time it's a warrant for a whiskey set or a tilted mug after a date and mother backs her on making that "no" strong. Obey father! This is Boy's and if the mother or the father like out w to the white boy lies in a room. To the conclusion that a boy of little time in a whole week should be set aside in which to help he be a better boy—why then in the world can "you" mother an "son" father—parents of the unprofessed boy—how can you offer them from boy and against him. Let him have his camera—let him have his wireless—let him have his paint for all of these things and on others that he is bound want are but so many stars before him, that are trying to light up his own pathway of life and lead him to the future. The act is plainly and blunt, but after a close study examine over another twelve years in problem and as a Sunday School writer in one of Baltimore's largest day Schools and as one who has served directly or indirectly the princes in practically every well known Sunday School in Baltimore and as many in various country districts, I am convinced (thoroughly at here are two things the matter the case) two—discuss in job as you will, beat the air if you adhere a boastful of foolishness if you must. I think there are only two faults to get them down short and the point. The first trouble—the untidy—with the Sunday school. We must keep the Sunday school food—and why! because the Sunday school does not absolutely does not wish to have the boy, and work harder are you must be himself and need to step out and take on problems of the leadership. When Sunday schools organize our boys then stand shoulder to shoulder with them in their organization "then and until" then" will our Sunday schools have more boys than they can with. But remember I have not told this organization work must be for Sunday". If you organize their work for Sunday meetings alone and have nothing during the week just as bad in the long fun as doing no organization at all. The Associated Negro Press cattle.

"As he grabbed the scribe's out-stretched hand and wished him a Happy New Year, he said: Boy, I have been trying to figure out what 1821 will bring forth for the race. I expect great things. "I am glad of your optimism," the reporter said. "Misha Harding will be president, 'Old Timer replied.' 'Mayor Brooming will have still less time to serve; Bill Fitzgerald may be Recorder of Deeds at Washington; the pastor of Allen church and his warring members may smoke the pipe of peace; Bishop Brooks will start his big skate in Africa; Bishop Johnson may read the notet of some of his preachers; business will be booming and we may have a chance to keep that white man Henderson, who does not want our votes, from being Register of WHIs." "I see you expect great things," the reporter broken in. "Boy, I wuz at watch meeting at Allen Church the other night, and when the pastor asked publican and sinner, friend and foe to get down on the knees and pray, I wuz thinking all mean inside what they showed on the outside." "Hey, you ought to have been in Congress the other day and heard them big race men kick against disfranchisement in the South. I saw like a dammister there. Well, the Southern Diminutives rotted at the mouth of them big men showed up their dirt, and some of them white Republicans seemed as if they did not care a bang about colored folks votes." "Did you have anything to say?" asked the reporter. "Being's I've got good religion I thought I had better keep quiet and as the claiphat of Congress might think I wuz a vile reprobate. I wish my old friend Monroe Trotter could have been there, as I know he would have said something." "What did you do New Year's Day?" asked the reporter. "Just called on some friends and wished them luck. I tried to see Mayor Billy to find out whether he was going to turn over a new leaf reading the race and Mason Hawkins about that row with his teachers, but both were calling elsewhere when called," replied O.

Scheizel, a native Abyssinian priest, who has degrees from Oxford and Corns Universities and Dean of the National and International College of Languages and Sciences of Princeton University, Indiana, is making his fourth tour of the country urging members of his race to return to Africa. He points out that his own country, Abyssinia is now an independent country, has never been conquered, and is the grade of civilization. Dr. Cheizel stated that there were 1,500,000 Negroes actually lighting in the World War, and that 720,000 of them lost their lives. In contradiction of reports of cowardice on the part of black troops engaged in the war, he points to several famous Negroes who have won fame as military and political reminisces. "While It might be said that Liberia and Haiti, both Negro republics have not succeeded, and the failure of Liberia and Haiti is due of the lack of education, said Dr. Shezciai, "while Abyssinia has succeeded. Time will show that these republics can succeed as well as white governments. Many white governments in the Balkans and Russia have been miserable failures. The white man has tried to dominate Africa, but that continent should be solid black. Only by miting in Africa will the black races be able to obtain recognition in the councils of the world. The departure of the blacks from this country to Africa would automatically settle the race problem which has been the source of so much discord." Dr. Checizzi besides holding degrees from two universities, speaks fifteen languages, using English with fluency, and is a priest of the Epic religion. He attended the World's Fair in St. Louis with the sons of King Menelk of Alyssinia and has lived for a long time in this country, as well as nearly every other country on the face of the globe. The Associated Negro Press. Chicago, Jan. 5.—The muted trombone and cornet, the syncopated music and the jazz band have had their day, according to Robert G. McCuteheon, head of the arts school of De Pauw University and secretary of the National Association of Music Teachers. "Jazz was born of the war," said Mr. McCuteheon. "It was an echo of the nation's hysteria. It came on the wave of the dancing brace, but it is fast being abandoned in favor of good music." Music, especially community singing, the Let us tell you how to do it. Send us this we will do the rest. professor added was a panacea for our social ills. It would dissolve the vapors of bolshevism and would supply the emotionalism formerly afforded by strong drink. Mr. McCutcheon also stated that the movies have done much to popularize music in America, and that the appeal of music also is being recognized more and more by the churches. "The demand for music teachers, especially in the rural districts, is far ahead of the supply." AGAINST VICE CONDITIONS Newport News Residents Up In Arms The Associated Negro Press Newport News, Va., Jan. 5 What is expected to be a forerunner of similar movements throughout the South was taken here recently in a protest of colored citizens at the presence in their section of houses of ill repute, voiced at a meeting of the Inter racial Colored people of Newport News last night registered protest of the presence of houses of ill repute in their section of the city, following which the later-Racial Committee named George Hardy, Dr. P. A. Scott and J. H. Ridley to work with the city authorities in the anti-violence crusade. Most of the houses. It was charged at the meeting are patronized by white men despite the fact that they are maintained by colored women. Colored people with the exception of the inmates, are barred in most instances, the committee's informants declared. Representative colored men declared that their daughters are in danger of being lured from their homes by the proprietors of the houses. "They will not let respectable colored people cross their threshold and we have no means of assisting the authorities in the suppression or the regulation of these places, for we do not know what is going on," one of the speakers is quoted as saying. The Negro members of the committee declared that they do not want the section in which they live contaminated by the houses and their inmates. They further declared that nothing is quite so disgusting to respectable colored people as the sight of white men skulking through the darkness to be in the company of colored women—women who often are social outcasts of their own race. Associated Negro Press London, Dec. 30.—"The one almost insoluble problem before America, it seems to me, is the Negro problem," said Henry W. Nevinson, British author and war correspondent, on his return from the United States recently. "It is a most serious question—and will be a dangerous one; but America, I feel, has shirked it. She must grapple with it some day for the debt of the sin of slavery must be paid." Law and Order Efforts There is a co-operative desire among thinking whites and colored for a more definite enforcement of law, and a consequent result of better order and more peaceful living. Lynching is re- garded as the greatest evil, nearly sixty having succeeded to that illegal procedure up to this writing in 1920, the latest being three whites lynched in California. The newspapers in the South, no less strongly than newspapers in the North, call for drastic action, the difference being Southerners desire State control, and Northerners Federal control. Governor Morrow, of Kentucky; Governor Coolidge, of Massachusetts; Gov. Bickett, of North Carolina, and Gov. Roberts, of Tennessee, have been the most outstanding governor-advocates of law and order. There seems to be an unqualified disposition everywhere to meet any terrorism at the "home plate" without any loud boasting on the part of Colored people to "stir up trouble." Affecting Things Political The National Campaign of 1920 produced the Negro as an issue in a manner never before experienced. Political methods adopted by the South some years ago, were re- sorted to in the Northern border states, these methods reached the zenith in Chicago. The effect of BOYS AND GIRLS EASY $3, $5 and $10 and won Friday and Saturday selling A Its easy in Baltimore, Arto n, Salisbury, Crisfield, Cal Wherever you find our the AFRO. One newsboy jumps out of your hands. Let us tell you how to do we will do the rest. Please tell us how to be this propaganda is dangerous both for the Negro and the nation. However, the reaction in the North against raising race and religious issues in a campaign is so bitter, that it will never be used again. The 15,000,000 American Negroes believe that their loyalty, patriotism and industry entitle them to a political place in the sun, and we will stop at nothing until the full privileges of American citizenship are permitted and guaranteed on every foot of American soil. The consensus of opinion is that there can be no compromise with right in this respect. Morris' Enviable Record Edward H. Morris of Chicago is making an invulible record as a member of the Illinois Constitutional Convention. There are two colored members of the convention. Mr. Morris, however, is one of the men who, if the conclusions of this body are finally adopted by the voters of Illinois, will have left the stamp of constructive ability on the fundamental laws of the State that will go a long way in adding respect to the position of his race as one of Illinois' worthwhile citizen elements. It is one of the instances in the history of the race in this country where a man has combined great oratorical powers with the vision of a true statesman. OLD MAN STILL HALE AND HEARTY WORKS EVERY DAY AND PRAISES NEW REMEDY In Bed For Months He Was Too Weak To Stand Up TAKES HYPO-COD REGAINS HEALTH "I certainly am enchanted to this new tonic Hypo-Cod," declared Wm. E. Gilbert, 1269 Dattery Ave., Baltimore, Md. "It put me back on my feet in the shape and although I'm now over seventy years of age I'm working every day and feeling fine. "For months I was spending most of my time in bed with two doctors part of the time. Nervous indigestion had made me so weak and bad I could hardly stand on my feet. I had a bad cough too and pain in my chest and a general breakdown kept me away from work and in bed for months.

FRIDAY, JAN. 7th, 1920 Discuss High School Situation Critics Say It It Is Behind Washington And St. Louis—Principal Hawkins Boosted For Assistant Superintendency Discussion of conditions, real and fancied, in the Colored High School continues among all classes of citizens since the recent publication in the AFRO-AMERICAN of the alleged row in the faculty about the salary question. A man conversant with educational conditions says that the school in equipment, morale and standing is much below Dunbar High School, Washington, and Summer High School, St. Louis. According to this observer, order is perfect at the Dunbar High School, and the pupils do not need teachers or monitors when passing to and from classes. The same state of affairs exists at Sumner High School, according to this and other observers. In the local high school pupils are said to openly show disrespect for the principal and some of the teachers are said to have a hard time in maintaining discipline. The pupils, it is claimed, take mean advantage of the leniency of Principal Mason A. Hawkins in dealing with them. It is said that when the principal speaks at assembly some boisterous students interrupt him with catcalls. Noise has been so great sometimes in the school that the magistrate in the Northwestern Police Station, which adjoins the school, has had difficulty in trying cases, and police have been sent into the school to ask that order be maintained. The salary increases are still ranking in the breasts of some teachers, they taking the view that the principal shared out of proportion to them. It is also asserted that when Superintendent of Schools West was summoned to talk to the teachers, following the Recent tenure row, that when Mr. Hawkins wanted to speak, he suggested for him to keep quiet as he (Mr. Hawkins) had got more than had been contemplated for him. It was at this meeting that Dr. West evaded most questions, and hedged about by saying that Baltimore is a Southern city. The school was recently surveyed along with other local schools. It is said that the investigators only visited certain classes, and from these observations will base their report. It is said that the Board of School Commissioners may shift the burden of looking after the colored schools by electing a colored assistant superintendent and that Mr. Hawkins is being favorably considered for the place. DINNER FOR MR. PRATT Well Known Teacher Is Honor Guest Of Friends A few of the friends, all teachers in the city schools, of Harry T. Pratt, principal of the Benjamin Banneker School, gave him a testimonial dinner at the residence of Caterer J. Logan Jenkins on Wednesday evening of last week. A fine repast was served, after which Howard M. Gross, who acted as tastmaster, referred to the high esteem in which the guest of honor was held, and then called upon Messrs. George A. Owens, William H. Lee and George B. Murphy for addresses. Mr. Pratt responded in a happy vein, and told of his observations regarding educational conditions abroad during his recent visit to Europe. The subscribers included Messrs. John W. Woodhous, William Anderson, H. Grafton Browne, George A. Owens, George B. Murphy, Mason A. Hawkins, Howard M. Gross and Gough D. McDaniels. OLD FOLKS FETED More Than 100 Enjoy Dinner At Eastern Church More than 100 old folks had their hearts gladdened at an old-fashioned dinner, which was served them at Eastern M. E. Church, McEldery street, below Patterson avenue, on Thursday afternoon of last week. The arrangements for the dinner were in charge of the pastor, Rev. Charles B. Bishop, and a committee of members. He Rev. J. W. English, Rev. J. H. Smith and Rev. N. M. Carroll were among those making addresses. Revs. Ernest S. Williams and Matthias Williams were also present. WANTS DIVORCE Mrs. Offord Claims Husband Gave Gold Watch To Another Woman For Christmas Through Attorney J. Steward Davis, Mrs. Evelyn Offord, a bride of three months, has filed a suit for an absolute divorce from her husband, Charles Offord. She charges one, Bertha Frisby, 520 N. Central avenue, with being a parmourn of her husband's, and claims that he gave her a gold watch and chain for Christmas. Mrs. Offord stripped the home of her husband, it is said, and is now living at 609 Stirling street. Charles H. Brooks, of McCulloh St., who was convicted for an alleged criminal assault on Delisie Tweedle, a 16 year old white girl of Catonsville Manor, has been granted a new trial by Judge Duncan, of the Circuit Court at Towson. The man is now in the City Jail. The new trial was granted on the failure to bring into court a coat that the man wore at the time the young woman identified him as her assailant. The recent trial was subbotynely contested by both sides, and the word "Nigger" frequently used. Dorsey had witnesses in court to establish an alibi. Alleged that a fair trial cannot be secured in Baltimore county. States Attorney Jennifer, who prosecuted Brooks, has filed a motion for a new trial. Laundry Bills May Rise. Weter Meters May Cause Laundry Ladies To Boost Prices. The laundry bills of many families may mount, should city officials carry out their announced intention of installing water meters. These meters cost about $50 each and the landlords would be sure to raise the washwoman's bill when he installs one, and especially after he gets an increased water bill. She could then pass it on to the folks that she laundered for. The city is several hundred thousand dollars behind in running the water Department and the meters are regarded as necessary in order to make up the deficit. The death watch has been placed over George Terry, who is to hang on January 28 for an alleged criminal assault on Mrs. Sibley, a white woman living at Mt. Winans. Terry, who claims he is innocent, was convicted in the Criminal Court recently. He is an ex-soldier, and has a prison record.

Bond is known, indeed it is known beyond the confines of this old burge. It is all because so many mismated couples have gone to him for aid in undoing the marriage tangle. Now, Mr. Bond is not an advocate of divorce; for couples have frequently become reconciled after he has given them fatherly advice (provided a bachelor) can do such. It is said that he had secured more divorces within the past four years than any other lawyer, white or colored, in Baltimore. He also enjoys considerable practice in the criminal and equity courts. Mr. Bond was born near Forest Hill, Harford county. After attending the public schools of his vicinity, he entered the commercial college of Howard University. He completed this course and later the law course. 0.7 American MOVIE-- the Contest who is your favorite movie. the "movies" and they follow newspapers as well as at the with all of the kids and lots they all like the way he can Roland make a big hit with fearless and beautiful. names is sufficient to get a Rushine Sammy" the young- nings laughter and cheers moussands of others, who is anyone, so sit right down paper and earn a little Money all readers of the Afro-American office not later than January 14. or pencil or with typewriter on ONLY. have same chance as others. adgme in all cases will be final. test is six (6).

I It is made by competent chemists, and only the best of each class of ingredients is used. It is creamy white, smooth as velvet, sweetly perfumed. After rubbing the Skin Whitener in thoroughly, until it is absorbed by the skin, apply Dr. Fred Palmer's Skin Whitener Powder, a dainty, sweetly-scented face powder, that protects the face from sun-burn or chafe, and enhance the lightness of the complexion. In ten days or a week's time, the effect of this treatment will be noticed. Blackheads, blemishes and discolorations will disappear. Gradually the skin will take on a lighter, brighter tinge that radiates healthfulness and beauty. In addition to the soap, cream and powder, Dr. Fred Palmer has prepared a hair dresser that is without equal for straightening, softening and increasing the growth of the hair. Only a hair dresser par-excellence would be marked with Dr. Fred Palmer's name, which has always stood for quality in toilet preparations. There are many imitations of Dr. Fred Palmer's preparations, so be sure to ask for them by full name. PREPARATIONS [Image of a human face with a bald head and a neutral expression.
