WE HELP BUILD BUSINESS Westerners Plan Biggest State University For Colored Youth In The Country Newly Elected Legislator Introduces Bill In House And Lobbies Senate Jefferson City, Mo., March 21.—In the last hours of the Missouri Legislature, both senate and house passed a bill appropriating $500,000 to make Lincoln Institute a state university. Governor Hyde's signature has been promised and a state university for colored people is now assured. Credit for the introduction and passage of the measure bblongs to Walthall L. Moore, who was elected to the lower house last November. He is the first colored man ever to sit in the legislative halls and planned to signalize this event by putting thru what he considered the most immediate and pressing need, namely a university for colored people. Mr. Moore knows from first hand the educational needs of colored people in Missouri because he was forced to come all the way to Howard University in Washington for the higher training that he received. INSTITUTE IS SECONDARY Lincoln-Institute located at Lincoln Ridge is an elementary and secondary school founded in 1912 by the trustees of Berea College to provide for colored pupils excluded from that college by state law its principal is A. E. Thompson, white, and faculty consists of eight white and seven colored teachers. Its endowment fund amounts to $250,298, and its campus of 444 acres is valued together with the buildings on it at a quarter of a million dollars. While the state appropriation is being used to erect the buildings and employ the teachers to make a University of the Institute, the bill just past provides that the state will bear the expenses of any colored boy or girl who because of his race must attend a university outside of Missouri.

Mr. Bliss presented the envoys to Secretary of State Hughes, and cordial greetings were exchanged. There are some persons who have been criticising the delay in State Department officials formally receiving the distinguished visitors, but a man deeply interested in the affairs of the little West African republic says that the apparent long time that elapsed since the party reached Washington and their formal presentation was due to no intention to slight the envoys. President King and colleagues have not met President Harding as yet, but a meeting between the two executive heads is expected within the next few days. The Liberians are here in connection with a loan of $5,000,000, which was promised during the Wilson administration but declined by the West Africans on the ground that the terms imposed for securing it were too harsh and meant that a virtual protectorate would be exercised by this government.

The letter reads as follows: In the last year I have had some opportunity to learn of the work of the Associated Negro Press and I am pleased to say that so far as I have noted it is doing a useful work in the direction of establishing a sound and enlightened attitude of mind toward the race problem in this country.

Green Confiscated Nearly Million Dollars Worth Of "Bootleg" Likker Prohibition Commissioner Sorry to Release "Efficient And Loyal Worker" W. J. Green, 8 Lafayette avenue, only colored prohibition agent in this district, has been released. His resignation was asked for and given to John F. Kramer, white. Prohibition Commissioner, who in a letter to Mr. Green praises his efficiency and loyalty and declares he is "sorry he must be released." Shortage of appropriation to continue prohibition enforcement in this section is given as the reason for the cut in forces. Mr. Green's release leaves only Captain Perkins, and Officers Smith and Rose, all white, to take care of the violators of the Volunteer act. CONFISCATED MILLION IN LIKKER During the year that W. J. Green has been a part of the pro- hibition enforcement force, he has been a terror to bootleggers, tak- ing part in more than 300 raids. He secured 220 convictions, an unusual percentage, and has still 80 cases on file to be tried. In this time Mr. Green estimates, he has as many as 1000 padpuri suq 700,000 worth of liquors. This is a conservative estimate, and a complete report will undoubtedly show a total of over a million dollars worth. Best known of Green's raids in the city was his single, handed entrance into McLaughlin's saloon, corner of Harrison and Lexington streets last year, when he captured eight persons at the point of the revolver, and uncovered $50,000 worth of liker which was being sold. He caught up later with the alleged white hoogtegger O'Connor on the Washington Boulevard, but had his own auto shot up and wrecked in making the arrests. TRANSFERRED TO D. C. Green's making good in this city caused his transfer to other sections of the district where he was commonly a terror to lawbreakers. He uncovered 25 or 30 salons and resorts in Atlantic City, a saloon at 10th and Race streets in Philadelphia, and John Neslön's old brewery in Washington, D. C. where he got 450 cases of whiskey. His Washington case that attracted widest attention was his arrest of Emil S. Sharif, white, wealthy white physician and dentist, and former professor George Washington University in Washington who had a "still" in his exclusive Mozart place home. Mr. Green is said to have no immediate plans, but is getting a well earned rest on a trip to New York state and Canada. Appointed Health Warden Wilmington, Del. March 24.

Man Tells How His Neighbor's Wife Vamped Him On To Commit Crime Woman At First Agreed To Keep Secret, But Later Double Crosses Easton, Pa.. March 21.—The eternal triangle involved in the love affairs of Irvin and Elvah McConnell, both white, and Fred Pierson, their neighbor, became still more involved following Pierson's statement last week that he and Mrs. McConnell killed her husband Irvin in order to get him out of their way. Pierson was arrested soon after the crime, and following his confession the McConnell woman was taken into custody just after the body of her husband had been lowered into the grave. In his statement made to Prosecutor Stryker and Clarence Walters, Pierson declared he went to the McConnell home about 9 o'clock the night of the crime. After Mrs. McConnell went to bed, Irvin accused him of being intimate with his wife. They quarreled and Mrs. McConnell was called from bed to choose between him and "Irv" and that she said she preferred him (Pierson). Mrs. McConnell's decision provoked her husband. Pierson claims, and when the argument between the men became heated, the murderer says, he suggested that they fight a duel with either shot guns, pistols or their fists. This lead to a lull in the argument for a time and then the two became quarrelsome again. When McConnell arose from the chair Pierson says he thought he was going for his shot gun so he blazed away. The shot was fired, he said, after McConnell had taken two steps. After the shooting Pierson says he told Mrs. McConnell to go to bed where she belonged and in the morning he called her and while they were doing the milking he instructed her not to tell anyone about the killing and that if anyone asked where "Irv" was she was to tell that he had gone to his traps. Evidently the actual murder of her husband frightened Elvah, he added, because she double crossed me, and I was surprised to find the sheriff knocking at my door.

C., March 23. — The academic faculty of Howard University lost out in the scrip- image with the student body last week in an attempt to enforce attendance upon mid-day chapel services on all students. Attendance of the academic students, but not the professional students, upon the chapel services is a rule of long standing in the University, but it had never been rigidly enforced until recently when the faculty passed what is known as the "eight cut rule." Under this new regulation every student who was absent from classes and from chapel would be required in effect to complete an extra course before he could graduate. Promulgation of the "eight cut rule" created consternation among the students. Talk of another student strike like the one of four years ago went the rounds of the campus, and finally a mass meeting of students after chapel service was called by the student leaders to decide what were best to be done. Knowing the seriousness of the situation, President J. Stanley Durkee, white, forbade the gathering, but the students disregarded his injunction to disperse and go to luncheon in Minor Hall and hold their meeting. Both President Durkee and George Brown, president of the Student Council, held the platform at the same time as the meeting went on. RULE ABROGATED Following this apparently unanimous protest of the student body, the faculty at its meeting abrogated the "infamous eight cut rule," which puts the matter of chapel attendance where it was before. Under the catalogue, the students are required to attend the services, but no penalty is provided. The whole question, it is said, will now go over until the annual trustee meeting in June. Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, Howard's now president, is a former New England Congregational minister, and until this year, the faculty was compelled to attend the daily chapel services. Members of the faculty, it is said, were unwilling to pass the "Might Cut Rule" in the beginning, but yielded to the President's insistence. The vote stood 7 to 7 and the president himself cast the deciding vote, to put the rule into effect. The faculty was unanimous in the vote to abrogate, and at the next meeting, it is possible that an effort will be made to make chapel attendance voluntary. ELECTION IN ST. LOUIS St. Louis, March 23—Both colored candidates for city council lost out by small margins in the primaries. Aranon Lloyd in 17th Ward collected 21,748 votes and 1,252 votes. Henry W.

My back ached constantly, and doctors treated me for everything from acute indigestion to lumbago. "One morning I was about to choke and my cook gave me a big dose of her medicine, the Herbs Of Life. The first dose made me feel better, and I sent to the drug store for a bottle. I continued the treatment and now I am on my eighth bottle and since I have been taking it, bile has come from my system as black as any ink that comes from a bottle and the worm was passed last Sunday morning. "I feel like a different woman who cannot keep from crushes that God-sent medicine, Herbs Of Life. My husband was suffering from lost vitality and has taken three bottles, and says that he feels forty years younger." Note: According to the personal statement of several hundred Baltimore Doctors and Druggists, Herbs Of Life is positively the best medicine on earth for the general system building of men, women and children. They also claim it is the largest selling medicine in the world.

Becretaryec THEATRES A Weekly Review THE NEW REGENT Just ending a four weeks' engagement in the Capital City, Billy, King and his aggregation of entertainers are now rioting twice daily at the New Regent Theater, having moved in on Monday last for a two weeks' sojourn. If there were any doubts in the minds of local playgoers who entered the Regent Theatre on Monday, to this company living up to the high claims made in its behalf prior to its opening here it can safely be be said, that these doubts were in every instance dispelled the doubling one, arose at the final curtain. For after sitting out a session of capers as performed by King and his able corps of assistants, unless you are a chronic dysppeptic, or both deaf and blind, you will pass out through the exits with your sides aching. Billy King is a veteran showman. He knows how to extract gales of laughter from an audience by a mere turn of the head or a flicker of the ceylash. However, unlike any number of other experienced performers, his is not a one-star show. He has surrounded himself with a large group of principals every one of whom exhibits ability of a high order. In fact it is hard to choose from among them any particular one as superior to the others. Of course King heads the fun-making, but in Marshal Rodgers and Kid Pumpsky, he has two aids and abductors who tread closely at his feet. The difficulty is hardly less pronounced in the case of the female contingent, excepting of course Mrs. Beatrice Bruce who as prima donna of the company, created genuine enthusiasm by singing in two Votes, first in what is usually called for women "baritone" and then gliding into a soprano of phonemic range and sweetness. Miss Berdina Blanks won much applause also for her songs which were rendered in an extremely molotous contrato. Then there was Miss Viola Evans, who captured the house by her singing "of the 'Crazy Blues.'" Mention also must be made of "Dinky" Thomas, a young woman of the chorus which comical antics caught the house at the very opening chorus, necessitating several encores. During the closing scene she appeared in male attire and appeared well at that. This young lady has a bright future before her. During the progress of the show, entitled: "Derby Day in Dickie" the leading ladies, and also the chorus make several changes of costume, each succeeding one being more lavish than the one preceding it. In fast, both in costumes and scency, it is the most elaborate offering the management of the New Regent has so far set before its pitrons. No adequate appraisal of the show however, can be made without mentioning Miss Blanche Walton who so ably handles the baton as directress of the orchestra. THE NEW LINCOLN Ewing and DeLyons, a clever duo, who have an amusing line of chatter, and also sing and dance in a pleasing manner; and Billy McLaurin's 10 Speed-makers comprise the vaudeville end of the New-Lincoln's offering this week. Melaurin's Speed - makers is about the most capable and hardworking group of caper-cutters ever comes this way. Melaurin leads in the comedy end but in Roscoe and Williams, the former in "straight" and the latter in character, he has two extremely capable assistants. These two boys are as clever dancers as are to be found in the business. On Monday they were forced to respond to encores until they were exhausted. Miss Edmonia Henderson is the leading lady. Her singing of one of the fifty-seven varieties of the "blues" also won for her several encores. The chorus is composed of a half dozen or so girls who for "pep" and real dancing ability, are in a class by themselves. Charles Gaines, the sensational wirewalker; Edwards and O'Brien the "blues" singer and the jazz violinist; Nellie Williams, singer; and Smith, King and Company, the "company" being a comely "brown" complete the vaudville bill at the Star this week. This is not the bill that had been originally selected for this week's offering but after the opening performance, a part of it was found to be too weak for the Star's patrons and thus had to be cancelled. The present bill will please the most exacting playgoer. THE CAREY The choice picture morsel for the "patrons of the Carey next week, will be the screen version of the novel from the pen of E. W. Horning entitled "Dead Men Tell No Tales." This picture will be shown on Monday. April 4th. "Madomas and Men" a great spectacular production in seven reels, will be shown. This picture turns back the pages of history and sets before the eyes of the beholder some of the major events of the Roman Empire when the early Christians were flung to the lions; and the mighty Gladiators struggled in mortal combat to make sport for a king. Then the scene changes to the present day, and we find a similar struggle going on, but this time it is a king of finance, and gladiators struggling for a woman's soul. Faire Blinney is female sake of this great production. THE NEW RAINBOW The New Rainbow management several treats in store for Rainbow patrons in the near future. To mention a fow: On Easter Monday, Lon Chaney will appear in "The Penalty." On the 6th and 7th of April, Elmo Lincoln supported by Noble Johnson, the great colored screen actor who has been absent from the local picture sheets for many months, will be shown; and also to appear soon is Pearl White in the "Tiger's Cub."

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. With that thought ever foremost, we began quietly looking for a suitable location for the theatre, and family ever found what, in our opinion, is the best location for a colored theatre in the city. This site is on Pennsylvania Avenue between Lanvale 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 investor may get in on this proposition. 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 theatres, which is constantly growing in number and importance throughout the country. The facts are 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. THE SITE—of this magnificent theatre (now in course of construction) is on Pennsylvania avenue between Lanvale street and Lafayette avenue, and is the best location for a building of this kind, anywhere in the city. THE GROUND was purchased for cash—there are no mortgages or ground rent—such 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 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. THE FACT that the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia under the same guidance has been able to pay a dividend of 8% during the first yearof 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 Corporation. 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. 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. NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT! THIS ISSUE OF STOCK IS LIMITED Do not let tomorrow find you undecided what to do. Delay may mean another lost opportunity over which you may have many regrets. CLARKE L.

Judge For Jim Crowing Colored People Washington, D. C., March 24— A ruling that may result in interstate electric railway companies being compelled to permit white and colored passengers to ride in cars without being segregated was made by Justice McCoy, when he directed a jury to return a verdict in favor of Brooks and William A. Walker, when on August 6, 1917, were put off on a coat of the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Railway Company at Bestgate, Md. An award of $500 each was made by the jury. "Stool Pigeon." Bootlegger And Abetter Of Lynchings Meets Death In Broil The plaintiffs, through attorneys J. J. O'Leary and W. Raymond McCormick, decided that they were compelled to leave the car at out of way place because they refused to more from the front of the car where they had obtained tickets. They then held tickets to Washington and boarded the train at Annapolis. Informed By Whites For Turning Burial Over To Be Burned At The Stake Justice McCoy held that the railway companies have no right to compel passengers, whether they colocate cars like a cistern seat in their cars, as the law know as the "Jim Crow law" is applicable only as far as State traffic is concerned and does not to persons in interstate traffic. Stilson, Ga., March 14—Buck Stevens, Georgia's bad man, stool pigeon, bootlegger and infamous is the "hero" who turned Philip gather over to a mob, which burned him at the stake was killed in a street broil here. Few men of this day exercised such sinister influence in the state or were more hated and feared by the common people. He declared that the men were within their right in taking seas in the front of the car and the company acted in violation of the law in putting the two men off from the train. people. Buck was so much cleverer than the rest of the Negroes around Sailor, Georgia, that he was able to live by his wits. He "stood in" with the white folks, sold liquor for a living without fear of the law, because he "was in right" with the powers that be around that lauwess section, where Negroes and white alike kill each other, mob and burn, in gentle pastime. Buck was the Negro who furished the information about doings and saying of Negroes. He was the truth with her ferreted out the difficulties which the white folks could not. He it was, who was controlled by the lauwess who wanted "things done", and was "tolling on the spot" to out things over. Must File Regulations Justice McCoy ruled that in order to segregate white and colored passengers in interstate commerce the companies must first file the proposed regulations with the Interstate Commerce Commission. Mr. Oleopy. "His company said that the railway company had taken no such action an that the segregation rule had been made by the trainmaster and not by the directors of the corporation.

Lawless whites here lionized Burk, when he betrayed the hiding place of Philip Gathers to a mob and accompanied them to the stake where Gathers was burned the mob up a purse for him, put his name and picture in the country papers and generally sang his praises. He was represented as the ideal Leger, with whites, law-abiding, minding his own business and possessing other virtues. President Harding in more than one address during the campaign let it be known that he was going to give conditions with Hilliard dilatection when he became President. Former Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt boasted of his writing the Haitian constitution, which he later denied. As a matter of fact, Fuck had no worthy virtues. He is suspected of having been used to murder one of his own brothers, and of killing his lilipig; he was a "wool pigeon"; he stirred up strife everywhere he went along; and he thought to "lord it over" the rest of the Stilson Negroes because he "stood in". But he was supposed to have been the only novel died with his boots on and his truely five shooters full of empty cartridges.

At the opening of the story, John Rutray, descendant of a family of gentlejok, who in old times practiced smuggling, is found penniless but still in possession of Rutray Hall. The ancient mansion is provided with a secret passage leading to the sea, utilized by his ancestors in their smuggling operations. Through this passage, accompanied by Eva and Captain Harris of the Lady Jernyn, comes Santos, a collector in sea and a useful equipment which the steamer is to carry from Australia on her next trip. Rutray fears that it will mean murder, and refuses to embark upon the enterprise in spite of his extreme need of money and rather lax principles.

Rattray finally is persuaded to enter into Santos' plans by the promise that Eva shall be given him in marriage and the assurance that no human lives will be sacrificed. Succeeding scenes show the Lady Jennym at sea. There are dances in the saloon, and musicals at which Eva sings a little Hawaiian farewell song, while below in the hold, the plotters prepare to set the shipa shore after transferring the boxes of gold to the Captain's gig. The plotters bore holes in the bottom of one lifeboat and cut the ropes holding one end of another nearly through, seemingly insuring the death of all persons seeking safety in either. When the fire is discovered, Captain Harris forces all the passengers, and all the sailors except two, into the lifeboats, driving them away from the gig in which the gold has been placed.

SCHOOLS USE 6,000 BOTTLES OF MILK DAILY Over 6,000 half pint bottles of milk are now being used by colored public school pupils daily. What amounts virtually to milk stations were established in all of the elementary schools last week, and when the pupils found out that they could purchase a half pint of milk for four cents they at once became good patrons. And it is said that only a very small percentage of the pupils are unable to pay. Teachers report themselves as being most enthusiastic over the project, declaring that it means good nourishment for pupils, as well as a fine way to discourage them from buying pickles and cheap candies on their way to and from school. In fact, Principal H. Grafton Browne of the school at the corner of Jefferson and Bond streets, will not allow the woman who sells cod fish cakes there to bring along pickles and candies. At School 115, Merryman's Lane, Principal Howard M. Gross and assistants stop the pupils from work at ten minutes before recess time in order to sip their milk. At a given signal, the pupils commence drinking, the teachers guiding them so that they will get the most nourishment out of it and at the same time do things in a sanitary way. Down at School 106, on Hill street, the upper class pupils sell the milk; thus giving them a little experience in business. The daily sales of milk range all the way from 50 bottles at Branch School 109, Mt. Olivet Lane, where the enrollment is less than 100, to 630 bottles at the Carey street school. The average consumption of half pint bottles of each school daily during the past week follows: School 100, 300 half pint bottles; School 101, 500; School 102, 200; School 103, 400; School 105, 180; School 106, 300; School 107, 260; School 108, 200; School 109, 200; School 109 (branch), 50; School 110, 600; School 112, 625; School 113, 400; School 115, 200; School 116, 280. FREE LIKKER Revenue Men Destroying Store Over Looked A Few Bottles Which Went To Waiting Crowd Uncle Sam's prohibition agents destroyed more than 3,500 quarts of liquor-good, bad, indifferent and made-over-night lasts week. The liquor had been seized when arrests were made for violating the Volstead Act. At the city jail on West Lexington, the extended the revenue men gathered to destroy the red eyt. Bottle after bottle was piled up and then began the task of breaking the same. Now and then a full bottle escaped the watchful eye of Uncle Sam's men and rolled down the wall of "Tikker" was grabbed by by persons who gathered to watch how things were going. Things would have gone along swimmingly, but a white youth got a bottle and his parents reported to the police that he had been made drunk. The police were on hand to watch things happen but now and the full bottle got away from the revenue officers. As it was, there were, a good many free drunks among colored men in the West End the latter part of last week. "AFRO" SCRIE WAS ASKED TO CONFERENCE Rev. George W. Beagra Says Unknown Voice Called Him On Long Distance Telephone Early the morning of St. Patrick's day, while the writer was still in bed, a long-distance phone message came to him from Washington. He did not get out of bed by himself, but received by one of his daughters. The message was to the effect, that there would be an important conference that same morning at the Senate Office building, and that the delegation from Baltimore would leave Camden station, for Washington, at nine o'clock; and the nameless person who added be sure and have a renunciation of "The Afro-American" present. I was not enough interested as to get out of my bed to receive the message. Since a representative of the "Afro-American" had been requested, I suggested to my daughter that she call me M.

Reed is pastor, has been negotiating for the property, but vigorous opposition to a part of the membership at a meeting last month, is said to have prevented the deal from going then.

A banquet will follow in honor of W. Ashieb Hawkins, who ran as an independent Republican candidate for the United States Senate last fall. This function will take place at Masonic Temple. The committee that is arranging for the convention states that no pre-arranged program is to be presented, but that all attending will be given the fullest opportunity to state their views regarding the Negro in politics. "We realize," says Chairman J. Steward Davis," that unless the methods adopted by the temporary officers are open and above board, we will be open to justifiable criticism. We would also urge that those who appreciate the obligation due to W. Ashbie Hawkins for his sacrifice in the last election would kindly notify the committee of their desire to attend the banquet in his honor." Ticketed for the affair may be secured from Mrs. Jennie R. Ross, 2047 Division street; W. Norman Bishop, 1107 Duvid Hill avenue; J. Steward Davis, 114 E. Pleasant street, and other members of the committee.

Charles Gilpin is an actor, it just happens that his forfeits were Negroes. A woman is alright in her place, and most men believes her place is number 2 in the race for life's preferment.

CONGO NATIVES LEARN TO BURN Natives of the Belgium Congo have evidently been reading accounts of lynchings in American newspapers. Wireless despatches from Boma, Congo Free State, Africa, declare that the natives became angered at the attempts of white traders to heat them out of some money, formed into a mob and burnt fifty white trading pass. And so "CIVILIZATION" has reached the Congo Free State at last. THE CHICAGO SORE SPOT White workers in the Chicago Stock pards voted 21,482 to 207 to go on a strike if the threatened reduction of wages approximating 8 cents an hour is put into effect by the meat packing companies. Some eight thousand colored workers in the same plants announced that they will accept the lower wages, and will not go on a strike. Both white and colored workers in the pards belong to the unions, so that many persons aware of this fact were at a loss to understand the unwillingness of the colored union workers to join their white brothers in the effort to keep wages high. Last week a correspondent of the Associated Negro Press investigating the conditions at the yards found out that the local union branches for skilled labor men are closed to colored men. This has been a zone spot with the colored men for sometime past. Steam filters, engineers and mechanics in general, if they are colored, have no chance to affiliate with the locals of these particular branches of union labor. The Butchers and Meat Cutters' locals are the only branches open to colored men no matter to what class of workmen they may belong. Here is another instance where the labor unions talk in a loud mouthed way about opening the doors to colored workers, when at the same time they mean only in the militarized trades. The lack of carpenters, bricklayers and plumbers throut the North is due to nothing else than the attitude of the labor unions. The Baltimore Interracial Conference passed a resolution encouraging workers to join labor unions. Asked if this applied also to domestic workers, it was answered that domestic workers are on a different plane. The truth of the matter is that labor unions like all other selfish organizations only want the colored worker to join in those cases where he would become a strike breaker outside the unions. Following the announcement in Chicago that colored workers will not strike, two things happened. The packers announced that colored workers will not be employed as strikebreakers if case a general strike is called, and secondly the white union workers have held up their strike plans two weeks and the strike order may be recalled. Here is a good example of colored workers fighting bad unionism from the inside. KELLY MILLEK OUT AGAIN Emerging from the fastnesses of Howard University whither he retired after his tour of political speech making in behalf of Republican candidates last fall, Dean Kelly Miller made his reappearance on the editorial page of a white newspaper last week urging that a Jew be sent as minister to Haiti instead of a colored man. Coming so soon upon his pronouncement that colored men should not aspire for political offices at all, it does not surprise us now that Kelly Miller would also banish some of the appolitive offices which colored men have held during other administrations. Discussing the question, he writes a follows: "Since the day of reconstruction it has been the policy to send a colored man as minister to Haiti. This post is regarded as the highest political prize awarded the colored race for party devotion and political service. The idea of a Negro representative for a Negro government is doubtless intended as a compliment. The most eminent colored men, including Frederick Douglass, John M. Langston and George W. Williams, have been assigned to this post. But on closer analysis this official segregation involves a compromise rather than a compliment. It is undemocratic, to say the least, to circumscribe the official privilege of any group of American citizens to a limited and peculiar area. A representative with deep race affiliation and sympathy is hardly the ideal American diplomat who must first of all represent the government which sends him, and not the government to which he is sent. "We have in our cosmopolitan citizenship naturalized or native-born citizens who by blood belong to every race and nation, and yet we would hardly send an Italian ambassador to Italy or a Frenchman to France or a Russian to Russia. We should certainly not send a Japanese to Japan. The race spirit has become so intensified in Haitian diplomacy that a colored representative would necessarily be placed under great temptation of divided allegiance." Dean Miller then accounts how President Cleveland appointed a white man as minister to Haiti and nominated a colored man for minister to Bolivia, but the Senate refused to confirm the second nomination. Knbwing what happened in this case Dean Miller still thinks the idea should be tried by President Harding. Dean Miller shows his unfamiliarity with practical politics in such a suggestion and his poor logic in comparing the sending of a Japanese as minister to Japan, to the sending of a colored man as minister to Haiti. Once a Japanese, always one. But an American Negro has no national, and few, cultural ties binding him to Haiti. Fortunately for the most of us, Dean Miller will have as much chance of having his impractical dream come true as the Democratic postmasters have of keeping their jobs under Will Hayes. LIES OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Does the white Associated Press deliberately and maliciously lie in reporting news of colored people? Here is the way newspapers all over the country described the causes leading up to the lynching of Henry Lowry recently. Some of them said, that Lowry shot the white man for no reason whatever. And others invented this bit of fiction. That Lowry had chased a colored woman for a mile or more trying to kill her; that this colored woman finally ran into the home of O. T. Craig, the white planter, for protection; that the planter stepped out to "remonstrate" with Lowry, when the latter shot him dead, incidentally killing his daughter, a Mrs. Williamson, who stood near him, and wounding his two sons, Hugh Craig, thirty-five years old and Richard Craig, twenty-seven years old. Still other newspapers decried that Lowry was drunk, and that a still was found at his home. Then Dr. William Pickens was sent down to the scene of the lynching by the National Association, for the Advancement of Colored People to make an investigation, and in the New York Nation of March 23rd sets forth the following: About two years ago Henry Lowry, the Negro, came from the State of Mississippi to work on the farms of O. T. Craig, white, a large planter in Mississippi County, Arkansas. With him came his wife and a six-year-old daughter. He was well-behaved and industrious, and knew nothing of whiskey and stills. Craig, the planter, owned all the land therabout. The colored tenants could own nothing, and Craig controlled everything. He hired, paid, and fired the colored school teacher, for such schooling as he allowed. His son Hugh was his farm manager. His son Richard, "Mr. Dick," was a "bad man" to the colored people. He was postmaster and clerk of court. As the Lowry case proves, the mail of the colored tenants could be opened at any time, and they got such "justice" as the landlords willed. Craig and his household, therefore, were about all the "government" the black tenants knew. The Constitution does not follow into the backwoods of Arkansas. them into the backwaters A. few weeks before Christmas Henry Lowry rah afoul of the policies of the debt- slave system by going to Craig and asking for a settlement; that is, a summing up of the debts and credits for the two years or so, and a delivery to Lowry of the balance due, if any. Christmas was coming; and it is thought also that Lowry wanted to move away, which the Craigs perhaps knew, as they controlled the malls. And Lowry knew that if he attempted to move away without having written evidence that he was debt-free, all his household goods would be "attached," and he and his family might be attached, too. But although Craig could have "settled" on his own ex parte figures, as is the rule, he refused to have any settlement at all. That would be bad policy; to concede these Negro tenants a reckoning might lead to other presumptions on their part. Who knows? If they can ask for a settlement once in two years and get it, they might come to ask for monthly statements, with bills and receipts. And what would become of debt-honage, if the debt-master must keep true and actual accounts? Craig would not settle. Moreover, any presumptuous Negro who insisted upon a settlement must be answered—emphatically. So Richard Craig struck Lowry and admonished him not to come again for a settlement, for there would be no settlement. Lowry was a man of forty years or more, and being indignant, he said among his fellow-blacks that he would go back again and insist upon a settlement. Now, there was a woman named "Bessie," who was cook for the Craigs, about twenty-five years old, and on perfectly friendly terms with "Mr. Dick." She is the principal in the fiction about the colored woman who was being "protected" from Lowry by the Craigs. She had reported that Lowry had said he would "come back," and on Christmas day, when she saw him coming, she simply ran into the house where the Craigs and their guests were at dinner and reported that Lowry was coming. She was not chased a mile, for she was the cook, and the Craigs were eating their Christmas dinner. When Lowry arrived on the porch he announced that he had come again to ask for a settlement, and the senior Craig, with appropriate language, told him to leave the place, and emphasized his remark with a billet of wood which he hurled through the door, striking Lowry. And as Craig and his family and guests came pressing through the door, Lowry was backing off the porch as if fearing and seeking to escape from bodily harm, when had-tempered "Dick" rushed out of the door and shot Lowry. * The Craigs started the shooting and Lowry ended it. He killed the father. The married daughter and wounded the two sons. Afterwards he escaped to Texas, where he was captured and brought back to the leon. Can anyone look at the two stories of the causes of the crime—the one furnished by the white Associated Press and the other written by Dr. Pickens, and fail to see that the former lies intentionally and with malice aforethot. Certainly the race owes much to the National Association and to the Nation, who were not afraid to find out the truth and publish it afterwards. GEORGIA'S LATEST OUTRAGE A TRIPLE LYNCHING From the Covington Georgia News Covington, Ca., Mar. 24—Bodies of two colored men chained together around the neck, and weighted down with a 150 pound stone were found in the Yellow River, at Allen's bridge, twelve miles south of here, on Corvallis, corvallis hold that the men were chained together while alive and were thrown from the bridge alive, and that the double drowning is murder. The Yellow River is a tributary of the Ocmulge River and the river backs up from this river, that normally there is about ten feet at Allen's bridge. It is below normal now. A small white boy named Cash who was playing on the bridge this morning discovered the foot of a human body on surface of the river, that normally there is about ten feet out at Allen's bridge. Doctors declared that the bodies must have been in the water ten days. Sheriff E. L. Johnston, of this (Newton) county, says no colored people are missing from this county, and there has been no record of them that pulled out the two bodies. A month ago, the sheriff stated, he learned of some race trouble in Jasper County, adjoining Newton, but whether these men belong there has not been determined. Hundreds of people, who were here this afternoon, and hundreds of women, were unable either of them. They were clean shaven, about 20 to 25 years of age, and dressed in overalls. Sheriff Johnston says a trace chain was used to fasten the two men together at the neck. Apparently they had been placed back to hook. back to back. A third body of a colored man, bound securely and weighted, with cast iron was secured last week.

To the Editor: Having received several anonymous letters from Baltimore threatening me for taking you to task for having stained my desk with which I claim for the Hon Marcus Carvey, each letter quoted the heading which you put above my article, namely, "Tut, Tut, the editorial said $18,000 and we still insist that any business man who did not explicitly in the way they resisted you in the letters which they wrote me claiming that you were not any good and had you have been you would not have published my letters. They misleadly told me that they would run my house, if they were near me. For my friends, I would like to say that I believe that the Editor of Afro-American is a man who has his views and he stands by them without equivocating or treating a people views and is broad minded enough to permit them to express their views. He does not always agree with anyone, nor does he expect everyone to agree with him at all. He also has other people who more I believe with Carlyle that most people are fooils." Bugene V.

They also wrote Marcus Carvey's name with a lot of foreign marks after it, thus xxx **** *** xxx &&& **** this was to show him how to show and they also bind after Dr. Eason's name the same characters to show how many people followed him. They had John H. Murphy's name and Dr. Du Bois's name to show their followers and stated that Murphy, Dr Du Bois and the rest were no good. Now I still insist that as far as I know Mr. Garvey is honest, but a man may be honest and may be may. I may be honest and may be may. I believe that Mr. Garvey has undertaken. I believe that Mr. Garvey should take the advice of men like Hubert H. Harrison, Dr. Wm. H.

Yours very respectfully, L. F. COLES. 833 Leland St. Philadelphia, Pa. MR. L. H. DAVENPORT SAYS PART OF JOKE COMMITTEE OF 35 WENT TO WASHINGTON "BY NIGHT." To the Editor: / Sir: I received a set of resolutions emanating from a conference of our national Republican leaders of which Wm. Wm. P. Jackson presided and Mr. Galen L. Tull acted as secretary. Those gentlemen recommended that the colored leaders would hold a conference and recommend some colored Republicans for appointment under President Harding. If the five gentlemen who were appointed to call the conference so, I have not been appended of the same. Some of the gentlemen, whose names appear on the slip, said "They were in opposition to the meeting or conference. Not withstanding last week. I have been informed, they 'sought Senator Weller and Senator France and other national characters as Nichademus sought our Savior at night. I would suggest that the old chiefs male and female, would call a meeting in the near future and retire those night rovers and let the people speak. I have been creditably informed that Mr. Wm. L. Fitzgerald is an applicant for the Recorder of Deeds 'for the District of Columbia. I have been puzzled to determine whether Mr. Fitzgerald and his friends realize that, if he secures the said appointment the members of the First Branch of City Council of Baltimore City, by virtue of the council being Democratic, would elect, a Democrat to succeed Mr. Fitzgerald. We might ask our white Republican leaders in preparing the persecution, isn't it possible to preserver or slate some honorable colored man or mea for a Federal position in Maryland. Respectfully. ONLY COMPANY WHERE OUR "HELLO GIRLS" CAN OPERATE Norfolk Journal and Guide Probably the only telephone company in the world today doing business and owned entirely by colored business men, is found in Virginia. The Elk Run Telephone Company was organized and incorporated in Virginia, during March of 1911. The company was capitalized at $5,000. During the first year it built and operated 11 miles of service. Today the company owns and operates over 40 miles of wire and connection, and serves over 90 stations. The whole enterprise is owned, managed and operated by colored people from the stockholders to the switchboard operators.

Without contentment and an easy, mind, you can be really happy or successful [Illustration of a man in a suit and tie]. WILEY BATES In his work, and in this fact lies the psychology of saving. It means just this—besides the actual amount of money you accumulate by systematic saving, you get very valuable mental effects. The mind has a great influence over the body. Saying makes you think success thoughts. It creates in you a desire to get ahead and desire is the first toward attain- Saving frees you from worry about the present, and from anxiety for the future. Therefore, the psychological effect of saving is that you are enabled to give your whole attention and best efforts to your work. absorb, which you save regularly you can do better work and more of it, and thus you will be happier both now and in the future. There is a sure and simple way to provide for a comfortable old age. It consists of making the most of your active years of your life, not only in earning money, but and saving. A savings bank account will make you save. Open one now and prepare for your comfort in that future time when failing strength an lessening income will make money saved and working for you a great blessing indeed. And your man starting; in life will make use of his mind to save 20% of his income and stick to this determination through thick and thin, he will have enough to retire on in his, old age just from accumulated savings and interest, while judicious investments from time to time put him in really comfortable circumstances. If you want real pleasure, live for more, than the present, and if you do that, one of the most important parts of your life plan he to save from your present income to provide fun, time and money of that future time when you will cease renumerative work—either from choice or necessity. MARSHALL FOCH SAYS GERMANS LIE ABOUT BLACK TROOPS From the Outlook "For several month there has not been a single black soldier on the left bank, of the Rhine. The few natives who are still there are the Algerian and Moroccan Rifles, who are Arabs, and not blacks. Furthermore, never at any time whatsoever were the Moroccan or Sesamian, billeted with the inhabitants; they have always been quartered in barracks or camps. This shows that their intercourse with the civilian population was exceedingly limited. To conclude no peace treaty was signed between the military interalled authorities relative to the aliened outrages. Each time that a complaint reached us an investigation was made, but always without any result. In each case we always found ourselves confronted by a lie or a non-existent Madame Paren, Frammeau, a Swedish writer affirer touring the Rhine Contry declares:— "The German men hate the colored soldiers because the women inflict too great an interest in them. The men cry out: 'Rather they be revenged, and to expire the women in the eyes of the foreigner. The foot is that the colored troops are an irresistible attraction to many German women. In the evening, in front of the barracks; there is an intense movement of women awaiting the coming out of soldiers, then women and daughters, then women and laughter are to be heard, and these are rapt!" --- A German newspaper, The Volkinger Nachrichten, under the title of "Hildredian Women," runs up against the misconduct of the young German girls who throw themselves on a catapult, on a competition, and says that "these chlameless women ought to be shot." SPOILS TO THE VICTORS Atlanta Independent When the Democratic party wins, the Republican party hands off and lets them appoint whomsoever they please. But the Democratic newspapers are now trying to dictate to the Republicans whom to appoint to office. Some of those want Democrats to hold office for eight years longer. "To the victors' belong the spots." That rule ought to be adhered to and carried out. President C. B. B. King First President Of The African Republic To Visit American Glyces Audience To Repre- Whether or not President Harding would allow the King of England or the President of France to remain in this country, he would have to give up for over a week, without extending to them the courtesies due the head of one government paying an official visit to the head of another is a question that admits of both the difficulty and the importance of what is happening to President C. B. D. King, head of the Liberia, West African Republic and a member of the Commission which is here to secure a loan of $5,000,000. He is not the only office he must not do before the end of the term. The pressure of domestic problems, and the rush of new things incident to his taking up the reins of government have made it up until now well nigh impossible. "It is whispered in diplomatic circles. It is also true that President King compes to this country not on a pleasure tour to pay his respects alone to the head of, a sister republic but to negotiate a loan, and horrors. The fact remains that the Liberian President who was feted in France by the French president, given an escort to view the city, invited to lunch with the King of Spain in Madrid, and received at court one beating his rank just three weeks ago, the United States and remains for nearly two weeks officially unnoticed and unknown. * * * These were the thou's that ran through the mind of a representative of this newspaper, as he sat in the reception room of the dwelling at 1207 R. street. Washington last week chatting with Dr. Ernest Lyon, a professor of theology, for the Liberian executive to finish his lunch. The Liberian Commission has leased the whole building for a month. Presently President King came drily into the room, a slight dark man dressed in a black suit, standing on a material, standing pill, the cravat secured by a jewelled pin, pumps made of dull black leather, and hose of gray silk. His Excellency offered his hand cordially, smoked an after dinner cigar as he left the room, and into an easy chair with the apparent satisfaction of knowing that the R. street dwelling which he has leased from W. H. Jolley an old Baltimorean, is for more comfortable and quiet than the Arlington hotel, where he sat in the Vanderbilt Hotel, New York, where he occupied a royal suite. A. "We have been gone from Monrovia since January 27th, "the President was saying in response to a question, the now, and are awaiting a call from the State Department that President Harding is ready to receive us. "How long will you stay, he was asked. We will be two weeks, or it may be a month. C. B. D. KING Why has the Loan to Liberia of only $5,000,000 been hanging fire for so long while this government had loaned a billion to European countries was the next question. "Your country has loaned many billions in that time" was His Excellency's reply, and he enumerate some of the smaller countries in the continent which had borrowed sums in eight figures. "Perhaps Liberia's credit is bad", the newsman said. "No" came the answer. "Liberia is one of the few countries that has kept the interest on its foreign debt during the period of the war." "Could there have been discrimination because Liberia is a black country?" President, King left his question, unanswered, and the newspaper man realizing the delicacy of situation didn't not repeat it. His Excellency's secretary announced a telephone call from the Secretary of State Hughes, and a buzz of conversation from members of the commission in the other end of the room filled in the last until his return. The conversation was taken up We agreed, he said as usual to permit U.S. officials to have an oversight of our customs in the event that the money was used for the development of funds for the level of roads, harbors and interior resources, but there are certain conditions in the agreement as settled, upon by your country, that require negotiation, and that is our purpose here. What is the relationship between the Liberian government and the Mausoleum Garvey movement was the next question asked. "Officially," he said his reply. Liberia once as a field of operation to any corrosion block or white, as long as there is not infringement upon Liberia's laws. President King U.S. denied that Liberia in exchange for the loan President King leaves the imprisonment of a bikie man about a lil' fish. He admitted that he was the first Liberal president to be convicted of sex, and he is, he is powerful with intel to make the sacrifice of dignity for the sake of his country. MILLIONS FOR "UNDIES" From the "FIGURES" seen last summer the statement of the Department of Commerce that the manufacture of women's underwear in the United States has reached more than $30,000,000 a year comes as a surprise. Chicago Defender The fact that the testimony of 'hello girls' proved to be the deciding factor in the conviction of a white North Carolina woman of improper relationship, the telephone offenders are not averse to overhearing conversations of the patrons they serve. The detailed report of the conversations they had heard, and the "listening in" on, the wire when they told the talk might prove of interest, and their lack of embarrassment on the witness stand shows that they did not feel they were doing "athing" morally. Like the old fashioned mail carrier, read postcard stories, read girl evidently seek self, justified in learning as much of people's business as comes her way. "The White Man's Burden" This is the Fourteenth Installment of "The White Man's Burden" SYNOPSIS OF THE PRE- CEDING CHAPTERS that I was to take a seat and wait until they returned, walked away together among the rocks, found irregular than it was in former days. On our way to Washington I took a seat, briskly the door In the Year of our Lord 2010, Negroes of the United States competed, so hotly with the whites for the business of the country that mutual segregation was agreed to and the colored people were given a state in the South for themselves. Here they built up a strong government which after a while was powerful enough to defeat the United States in open warfare. Victory came to the black soldiers from the use of the new invention of artillery which used centrifugal forces and required no explosive. As a result of the conflict the, black people, former American Negroes demanded that the United States pay the transportation back to Africa, and 4,000 vessels were used for this purpose. In Africa the former black Americans set up a government, which is nevertheless the most peace fowing and orderly, powerful in the world. --- To be sure I had seen plenty of reasons for altering my opinions about Negroes. He was up, and I was down. There could be no doubt about that. And yet, withstanding his intellectually, physically and morally, he was treating me together as an equal as nearly as it was possible to do so. His manner was cordial and intimate, and he made me feel that I was his native race, and his slow degrees to perceive and recognize the fact myself, than by any marked assertion of his own position. If I left, now and then, as if I were being instructed to apologize, and not that he conducted himself like a master. He was as kind and as considerate of my feelings as a man could be. But our conversation lagged and gradually I fell into a doze. We had passed the tropical regions and it began to get greener and my wraps together, I looked up and found to my surprise the the sun was near the horizon in the west, and that our journey therefore, if our calculations were correct, they were to arrive at three of our o'clock in the morning, and made up my mind to get a good rest before hand, and the sun had no sooner set than I began in my seat and began to doze. CHAPTER XVI MY OLD HOME I think I must, have already fallen late sleep when I was suddenly awoken, and I must, and I must, my eyes, found that We were, screaming rapidly upwards. "We are nearing the track of vessels," he replied. "And we must now just below the horizon. I hope you will feel no inconvenience from the high tide, but I still think we need to rise more than a mile, or a mile and a half. We have only about 10 miles more to go— * . . . * * * ※ ※ ※ ※ "Peconic Bay," he muttered, and our machine began, to wayer, and move a little to one side on the other. We could discern a small house against a background of trees, and in the lighted doorway a human form, which shortly encroached the security of the night. Now we were gradually settling down immediately above a small enclosure surrounded by a high fence, and larger than our apartment. However, thanks to the Negro's skilful manipulation of his little wheels and levers, we finally touched bottom as gently as falling feather, and stepped out upon the solid ground. that I was to take a seal and wait until they returned, walked, away together among the trees. I found and armchair just inside the door, an armchair just inside the door was empty, and barely furnished, with a single burning candle. I had not long to wait for the men present returned, and the Negro and myself were shown into a, back room, where two beds invited us to sit and watch the selves down as we, were, without removing our clothing and were soon fast asleep. *** When I awoke it was broad daylight. The clouds had blower over and the sun was shining brightly. My companion was already up and busily arranging for our departure. I saw that he had changed like any other colored man of intelligence and position. I rose, washed my face and shined brushed my hair and went out of doors. The men had finished their business, whatever it was, and entered a small boat, and the boats of the island rowed us over to the mainland where, a few minutes later, we took a train for the city. 单 本. 本. 本. The few hours of sleep had done wonders for my companion. Whereas the night, before, when I was tired and dull, so exhausted, in fact, that I was somewhat alarmed, now he was quite fresh and chipper, and seemed of body and mind, his clarity of body and mind, looking and behaving much more like a man of forty than one of eighty-five. In fact, was disposed to think he had been long how when he gave me his age. * * * * * "We shall have to go back tonight," he said almost as soon as we were, comfortably settled in our seats. "I have learned that the invasion is to take place in the ports with the army on board left a week ago. By this time they must be hearing our count. I am surprised that we did not want straight across and then along down on the other side. But we must get there before they do, at any cost." ```markdown ``` I did not make any direct reply to this remark, but proceeded to satisfy my host by landing on my host's landing place and our host's of the night before. . "He is one of our familiar agents here," was the reply. "We have them all about. We are compelled for the present, and have been with the outside world through such agents as this one. There are a few scattered Negroes, here and elsewhere, and we depend on them who did join in the great migratory movement when we went to Africa, but this solidarity of the race has subsisted, and can be corrected for correct information about any hostile movement, directed against us. Nothing else that the whites may do is of any interest to our people, but it is important for correct information on occasions like this. That man is the owner of the small island where we landed, and supports himself by fishing and agriculture. The structure is a good order by him, and is always empty and ready for me. I never send word that I am coming, but just now at this juncture, watching for me every night for a watch, for, or course, I never come in the daytime. Meanwhile he had been collecting information, so that he was able to tell me in a minute all that I required to know. "How are we going to spend the day?" I anxiously inquired. *We cannot stay long, in New York.* he replied; "I must go to Washington for a brief stop, and I will be there for you. Perhaps you would like to remain over in New York while I go on." ```markdown ``` Now: strange as it may seem, I as actually terrified at the idea of staying for hours, for two hours, for all hours, which had been my home for so many years. I had begun to feel such a profound respect and, absolute reliance upon the world, which had been an affection for him, that I could not bear the 'ideal of being' left- alone. Besides the city was likely to appear strangely new. The whole aspect of the world had altered for me within the short space of two days. And although I had seen and heard such things, I was not sure what I was and what I was not. No, I must cling to this man, until I came, to myself, or until that full explanation which he had promised to make, had "I will go with you," I said. "I can can think of nothing that would detain me in New York. I am a boy and I and have, no interests here now." ****** "Very well," he replied, with his old acquaintable smile. "then we will go right on." On our way to Washington I took occasion to ask about the other, nations who had occupied the old world since the great pollution, and learn that they fled in fear at peace among themselves, and although they were all subject to governments still, and were there惩悔 behind the Negroes in the race, the great in the race had much more another with no artificial restrictions, and their relations were entirely amicable. They had a way of setting their difficulties through an international court, and they kept up their antagonism with another of warding on possible aggression by the whites, although the latter having never forgotten the terrible lesson they had received, and the other having been Japanese, though still retaining some of their ancient contempt for the Negro. Then, too, Europe and Asia, to their mind, had already been exploited for ages, and, they thought, had been the resources before they were driven out, whereas they were disposed to look upon Africa as still a virgin field, with wealth in munition and resources to waste all these resources on account of the indolence, and ignorance of "those contended miggers." * * * * "So much they know of my people," he said, butterly. "Well, he continued, with a sigh, 'they will have another cruel lesson soon. ******" "And now, on their own side of the occult," he continued, "they off-retain their quarrelsome and jealous dispositions and their insatiate grief. Look at those in the oppose situation, self-satisfying or everything within their reach and some things beyond. Do you understand what they are saying?" **** "Nonsense. Everything is bound to go through slick enough. All that talk is buncombe. Our troops have been there this time, and there can't be much opposition. Our ancestors were scared off to be sure, but they didn't the facilities for such work that we have. You read support for that all that vodoo business is scientifically impossible. There will be no trouble. Take a few shares while they are cheap. Our company is going over the cost and a little cast of it. They say most of the gold is there—" And the conversation died away again into a murmur. "Yes, I understand him," I said. "Dividing us up already," he replied with a bitter smile and turn the subject. These were the bitterest words I had ever heard from my philozoa, a friend and made me feel a little uncomfortable. I made no attempt to reply for nothing I could say would affect his and I was disposed to attribute the sudden outburst of phlegm to his facial agitation in his finding himself in an alien and hostile environment, in the country of the hereditary and long hated enemies of his race. So I raised alert during the remainder of the journey. THE AFRO AMERICAN watching the passers by, in the streets where his 'dutless' they were, came to New York, where we took a subway train the length of the city and under the river to Long Island. During the trip we admired and other times, provoked by his loving comments upon what his loving and ever watchful eyes noticed in the ear where we occupied "Look at all these advertisements," he would say, "the fraternity attempts of all sorts to entice us into buying of things of which they do not feel the lack. There is one of a bargain sale. Someone has had of truck that he has been able to sell to his customers, that he has been left on his huds because everyone who has seen it has considered able, and he makes his last grand struggle before he throws it in the pugbag. An immense waste of energy to make people buy, when they buy, will all there is about the newest fashion. What are the fashionies? And why are they constantly changing? And they are progressively more beautiful, or more appropriate, for they are often quite the opposite. No, it is because these demon-driven men must keep working and argy. But who gets the product, in the end? The persons who work it? These. What is it? How they are really cold and hungry? Qh, no. Those who are delighted with the idea, that they must have it. All these need them, but for those who need them, but for those to whom they are a bother and a nuisance. "And do these people here joy this chase after something constant, excepting that it gives them something to do, and distracts them attention from themself, or they have no resources of enjoyment. They cannot think. They bore themselves so when they are alone, and find solitude so miserable, that they get bore others to get themselves on their own. Look at the faces along the opposite side of the car. How unhappy they all are. See those ladies there, on the car and the other ladies, and both how animated and cheerful their expression! You would think they were both happy and contented. They have started talking for their faces take on their habitual expression. How sad they are! Their real souls shine through the mask they are wearing and like two merry chatterboxes of girls. See that poor thin, near the end, with a sad face, a child in her hair, that they a little fashionable attire, with his diamond pin and gold-headed canoe, and seems satisfied with enough for their lunchmen to have fed that poor woman and her boy for six months. It is like he thinked like the time and himself hugely. Perhaps he did. And yet he undoubtedly has his moments of reflection. Look at his pauperism, jowling with his resources of enjoyment, giving him about years more to live. And, yet in your abundance of food, some of you never have enough, while the vast majority eat too much. Glance around this car.

WEST STREET ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT NOT DISCUSSED According to Frederick J. Sinclay, white, a member of the School Board, nothing has been said about the appointment of a colored educator to the single, vacancy existing on the Board of Superintendents. He was asked by a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN about the filling of the vacancy, the prospect for the establishment of junior high schools for colored pupils and whether or not any steps will be taken in the near future to relieve the congestion at the Colored High School by providing a modern and commodious building. "As far as I know the question of filling the vacancy in the Board of Superintendents has not been discussed in the School Board, Mr. Singley said. "The position is not likely to be filled right away and I do not know whether or not a white woman or a colored educator will be appointed thereto. "The school system will be placed on a new basis, which will include junior high schools for all colored and white pupils. This is what is known as 'the six-three three plan,' which means the first six years for elementary training, the next three for the junior high school work and the other three for the advanced secondary studies. According to modern educators, this plan tends to make pupils stay in school longer and helps to bridge over the difficulties caused by many pupils leaving in the sixth grade. "The Strayer report, now in the hands of the printer, is an exhaustive document, containing a complete record of the recent investigations made into the status of city schools. It contains references to the Colored High School, as well as other colored schools." Superintendent West declared he had no information on the question of a colored assistant superintendent to give out. Must Be 21-2 Feet Tall And Willing To Be Bossed Miss Harriett Thompson, known for hundreds of thousands of cirrus-goers throughout the country as Princess Wee Wee, because of the fact that she is only 30 inches tall, has spent the past ten days visiting her parents Mr. and Mrs. James Thompson, 1704 Presstman street. She spent the winter in Cabb, and will leave this Friday for New York, where she expects to spend the spring and summer filling an engagement at Coney Island. "I am feeling fine, thank you," the Princess replied in responding to a greeting from a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN. "When are you going to get married?" was asked. "As soon as I can find a man my size so, that I can boss him," was the quick reply. Through their lawyer, Roy S.

Murphy, president of the local Croquet Club, journeyed to Drudg Hill Park last Friday af- ternoon, he found that some mean thieves had broken open the box in the pavilion and not only stolen every ball and mallet there, but had also appropriated the wickets and the head and foot stakes. The president immediately came to the city and notified Revs. D. G. Mack, W. W. Allen, Messrs. Howard E. Young, Henry Johnson and other members of the club, that they would have to get new "tools" if they were going to play croquet this summer. The Croquet Club has become an institution in Druid Hill Park, having been organized over a quarter of a century ago. From early Spring until the leaves begin to fall they may be seen following their favorite sport, every afternoon except when it's raining.

MINISTERS SIGN PETITIONS Friends of Dr. Ernest Lyon are working hard to have President Harding appoint him United State Minister to Liberia, a post that he held during the greater part of Roosevelt administration and the first part of Taft's. Nearly every Methodist minister in the city has signed a petition favoring his appointment and many did so at the annual session of the Washington M. E. Conference at Annapolis this week. Other signatures are expected the session of the Delaware M. E. Conference at Annapolis at Sailburg. The fact that President C. D. P. King and other prominent Liberians, here on an important mission, are spending their weekends at the home of Dr. Lyon lends credence to the belief that he will be acceptable to the Liberian government.

Says Colored Candidates Should Be Put Up As Rebukh To Lily- Louis I. Davenport believes that the voters of the Seventeenth Ward should put one of their number up for the legislature's next fall, and his opinion is shared by Daniel W. Richardson and others. "It is time we stop dally-dalying and start in the open," he says. "The Whites have been profiting from being long enough, now: the time to serve notice that we want them to recognize us by supporting one of our 'candidates some time. If they refuse, then put up one anyhow and get behind him. We should put up candidates in several of the counties also, thus serving notice on the 'illy-whites.' I am tired of the policy of exoneration when the emoluments being given out." Daniel W. Richardson, says that every effort is being made to find a suitable colored candidate who will run for the legislature in the Fourth District. HE WANTS A WIFE. Tom Johnson Asks Police To Find Him One Here Police Commissioner Gaither was busy looking on or his mug the other day when he came upon a door from Thomas W. Johnson, of Fordtown, Pa., who is anxious to have a Baltimore girl for his wife. The lovelove young man writes, in part: "Please give this letter to some nice Colored Girls that are nice looking. I want to correspond with a Girl there who don't know your business. I want to marry some nice little Girl, age about 20, 25, or 18. "I work every day and I want a good woman that knows how to do her house work. I don't want no lazy woman. I will be good to a wife and do all the things I need to treat me the same way. My age is 21 years old. I will write more next time, when the girls answer this letter." As Johnson promises to send his photograph back as soon as he receives one from a girl here some Baltimore maiden who was unlucky during 1920 has an excellent chance of getting a husband who is not lazy, but who also expects her to be a good housekeeper.

AVENUE MANY PATRONIZE DENTISTS Practitioners Along Pennsylvania Avenue Seem To Be Reaping Harvest From The Masses That the masses of the colored people are more and more seeing the necessity of the care of the teeth is evidenced by the fact that on Pennsylvania avenue, from Biddle street to McMechen there are at least six dental parlor's run by graduates in dentistry and all modernly equipped. Thousands of people travel up and down Pennsylvania avenue daily. These pedestrians, for the most part come from the humber walks in life. It is these that are giving the dentists a haesse thus making white dentists much less from the colored people than formerly. At 928 Pennsylvania avenue Dr. C. C. Bailey is located on the second floor. In the next blocks at 1038, Dr. James A. White holds forth. Dr. L. H. Mayer is at 1200 Pennsylvania avenue and at 1301 there are two; Drs. W. A. Jervay and F. J. Sykes. Further up, at 1641, is Dr. Luchie C. Butler of these dentists and to pay their Uncle Samuel a generous amount for income taxes this year. Dr. White, in talking to a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN the other day, said: Years ago dentists preferred the residential neighborhoods and their work was confined to highly thrifty. Now all classes come in to have their teeth fixed, realizing that it helps to safeguard the health. For my part, I feel happy over the fact that the race more and more believes in the colored dentist.

WINNERS LAST WEEK Winners of the Afro's Big Geography Confast number 16 are as follows: Here are Mrs. Knott's correct replies to the questions on Maryland geography. 1. Three rivers in Maryland—Susquehanna, Patapsco and Pauxton. 2. Havre de Grace is located where the Susquehanna river empties into the bay. 5. The name of a chain of mountains in the Western part of the state is Blue Ridge. 6. The town on the Atlantic Ocean that is famous as a bathing rosette is Ocean City. 7. The town that is partly in Maryland and partly in Pennsylvania and sets its name therefrom is PEN-MAR. The Geography contest was a scorer and made some of the regular friends of the Contest Editor get out their old geographies and brush up on their knowledge. Some of us do not appreciate how wonderfully Nature has endowed Maryland. Small as it is, Maryland has a bay, numerous rivers, two canals, a fertile Eastern Shore washed by the Atlantic Ocean and a Western Shore traversed by some of the most beautiful mountain chains in the East. If he wants a climate that will give him skating from Thanksgiving to Easter, let him go up in the mountains; if he wants a warmer region where he can raise tomatoes and roasting ears by early July, let him go to Southern Maryland.
