Both letters were filed with the Senate Committee on Foreign relations. Secretary Hughes's Letter Secretary Hughes's Letter Secretary Hughes' letter to the President reads: "The President: "I beg to submit the following considerations with respect to the proposed loan to the Republic of Liberia: An examination of the course of negotiations produces the conviction that commitments have been made by this Government which impose a moral obligation to make the loan. The negotiations were, had and proceeded the point of announced commitment at time when the broad authority conferred in connection with the prosecution of the war was adequate to the consummation of the plan. "On Sept. 11, 1918 the Government of the nation was notified of the terms, service and general purposes of the loan. Delayed Until 1920 "Replying on the assurance that the United States was ready to give into a definite agreement, the President of Liberia came to Washington some time ago with other alienentailments to conclude the negotiations. In anticipation of this journey, and at the request of this Government, the Liberian Government, gave to him and his associates full and made the loan plan, and since that time, it is understood they have been prepared to sign an agreement providing for the necessary administrative measures adequately to secure the loan. J. S. Morally Obligated "In conclusion permit me to observe that, apart from question of our obligation or of any benefits occurring to ourselves, our people have always been especially deteriorated in the welfare of Liberia because of the close relations between the two countries and have to all that pertains to the advancement of the Negro race. The Republic of Liberia has been fostered through American interests, and at this critical time in her history we have opportunity to give a practical expression of our continued solicitude and, now coming to her aid in this severe deficiency, to promote permanent relations of the closest friendship. The President's Letter In the letter of transmittal, President Harding expressed to Vice President Coolidge the con- viction that we "have an obli- gation, which the executive branch of the Government cannot dis- charge without the properly ex- pressed approval of Congress.

Rufus D. Byars, Manager Of Dudley-Murray Corporation, Resigns To Manage New Crandall HOWARD DECLINES Handsome MovieI Houses Attracting Patronage From First Theater Washington, D. C., Aug. 4—All Washington is talking about the resignation of Rufus G. Byars. manager of the Dudley-Murray Moving Picture Corporation who, it is said, has signed up with the Crandall Circuit at a salary of over $150 per week. Mr. Byars was at one time manager of the Howard Theater and his success in the first big colored theater Washington ever had lead to his employment by the Douglass-Murray Corporation as general manager, for its string of colored movie houses at a fancy salary. With the entrance of the Republic theater, a quarter of a million dollars house on You St., owned and operated by a Jew, named Mack, of Baltimore, the patronage at the colored owned theatres, is said to have dropped considerably. This drop will be felt still when Crandall theater comes one half of a million dollars and the finest thing of its kind in the United States is opened next fall. It is reported that Crandall who is white owns and operates a chain of 65 white theaters in various cities at first refused to put a colored theater in Kansas, but after being urged by the Murray-Appleton corporation to leave the field open for exploitation by colored capital only, Crandall changed his mind, however, and went to work to take the cream of the colored theatrical business from Murray to Brothers and Dudley allowed the Jew, Mack, to get ahead of them in erecting a monster theater on You St. So far as can be learned, the new half-million dollar theater will be under the personal direction of Mr. Byars who will have sole charge.

STATEMENT GARBLED SAYS JUDGE SELTZER Former City Magistrate Declares Daily Paper Misquoted Him On Attacks On Lawyers And Gamblers Tells Afro Reporters He Has Nothing More To Say For Newspaper Pub- Threatened Gamblers "I have been approached by Tom Smith and his Hententian, Jack Watts, to give them permission to open a big gambling game in the Eastern district. My reply was, "If you open a game in this district and are arrested I will send you as far as I can." Tom Smith is a close friend of Lententant Mooney, who, in the absence of Captain Kahlbeisel, has had Smith, Watts and others in the police station on several occasions. Mooney and Ford also are very close friends and both make their headquarters at the Kelly." "I have driven the profes- white and Nerro lawyers of lower class, who are attached sional bondsmen and the to certain big criminal attor- neys, from the station." The above statement attributed to follow Judge Fugene P. Selzor, who restrained his position under charges. Monday was the talk of the city this week. In a, much longer statement published, in a local daily, Selzor claimed in effect that Democratic politicians of the city "framed him up" because he allowed vice conditions in the Eastern District to continue. When called over, the "phone Monday and asked who were the colored lawyers of the lower class who he has driven from the Ear- nern station, Mr. Selzor declare that the above statement is garbled, and that he had agreed with his brother not to say anythir further for the newspapers. I made a similar statement again Tuesday. There is said to be no gambil houses running in the East District. The stationing of Captain E. Felsch as commander there is limited as being largely responsible for things being "light" the If Magistrate Seltzer had do with the vice interests, it is cert that the police would have gone over his head to the Grand Jury and secured indictments. Gambling houses are said to be in operation in the Northeastern, Western, Southwestern and Northwestern Districts. Magistrate Chapman, Northwestern District has dismissed a number of those arrested for tambling in houses saying that the police should raid the big gambling houses. A number of "joins" are said to be run in the Northwestern District. Gambling interests among the colored people were much wrought up over Justice Seltzer's allegation about Smith and Watts.

Second Games In the second game which went seven innings the boys from the banks of the Severn didn't have a look-in.

Brown the third brother of the Weldon's club with the Severn the latter, with A. Brown still catching. Although the Sox had garnered 18 hits in the first game, they were apparently out to further increase their own league win. The Dons' expense, and before the session ended they had gathered 19 more, which netted them 16 runs the same number they gathered in to first game. 13 of these were the third innings after which Dosey believed the helpless Mr. Brown. Wheeler was in rare form and held the Annapolitans scoreless. Only four hits were gathered off his bat, and the strikeout back by the strickeout route. Only one man got to third base in this game and he stole it. Black Sox Weldon A. C.

I took unto myself a wife as the Bible said and just because she was white and a college woman, some people are down on me. Had I married some woman of the streets, it would have been alright. I'm sure I've lived up to all the rules any husband should live up to. Sport Tid Bits Jack Johnson is in the movies. It is rumored that backers of his first release will be a 5-reeler based on the history of his life. The National Film Company is making the production. Of late there is a saying which is rapidly developing into an axiom that Baltimore is "a poor town" and as soon as charge is in several particulars it cannot. For instance let us take the local colored baseball team; the Black Box. The aggravated players often taken as a whole, compares favorably with any colored team in the country, and is to at once stir up a resounding echo of house and guffaws, but it is a fact nevertheless. The Box is not to hold a national championship over a half mile. In winning the 5-mile race in the A. A.

The show that the public do not wish boxing bouts was given the black-eye good and proper in New York last week when mounted police had to call to light the cordon to get into the Arena. The old adage that "unseasy lies the head that wears a crown" Jack Dempsey is finding more money in the fight. After the Government had correlated the better part of his winnings from the Carpenter light, somebody attached his $1,000 to his winnings. He claimed New York as his place of residence only to find that in so doing he must hand over an additional $12,000 in State taxes, and just to get a fair dine he is sulting him for a good smoof of financial balm for her wounded heart. After Jack Johnson, battered and outraged, soaked his limb to California to raise cattle dawn J. Jeffries and banished our states passed laws prohibiting the showing of the pictures of the victim. The covered that this law is depriving holders of the picture rights to the Jack Dempsey says he gets 500 letters a day—that he doesn't read. Do I hear the American Legion chair that "not having been in the French in France naturally he doesn't know how to appreciate a letter?" NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Washington, D. C., Aug. 4.—The National Championship tennis matches for colored players to be held here the week of Monday, August 22nd, will for the first time draw players from the New England States and from the West. Besides the local men including the New York State Smith entries in the singles will include such starring players as Ralph Reckling, B. M. Rhetta and F. Perkins of Baltimore, E. K. Jones and L. P. Hinton, of New York, Dr. John J. Smith and Roland Wilson of Boston. Frank Perkins of Baltimore won the Chicago City championship last year and defeated W. W. Walker in the Baltimore City matches recently. His work in the National championships will be watched with interest.

I don't think I argue it when I say that the Sox would make most of the teams to the North and West of us, stop some around the old ball lot. But even with the present force the Sox are playing some of the best baseball ever seen here and only a handful of spectators are giving them support. Lee Flynn manager of Panama Joe Gans the colored middleweight boxer has offered Johnny. Wilson the Middleweight champion $25.50 the Middleweight Champion $500 to fight Gans. When Jack Johnson's white wife chose exile with her husband rather than to "go with the crowd" among individuals said she would do, these latter sought consolation in the statement that just as soon as Jack's doughnut low she would desert. But; either Jack had a mighty big of this latter commodity or else. INJURED PLAYERS RECOVERING Delmar Williams and Wm. Williams both of whom were injured in the twin bill at the Towson Oval on just Saturday are much injured and expect to take a trip to the University and Westinstitute, Md. Saturday.

K. means Americanism on cracker language Japan is pushing her naval program "feverishly" whatever that may mean. The "Old Guafd" die occasionally but no one of its members have been known to resign. New York will have thirty days of Garvey. Well what of it? DuBois will be in Europe thirty days. Some day we will wake up to the fact that while we had to have 'em, we really didn't need 'em. We no sooner get ready for Winter in the Summer, when we come to face with the problem of getting ready for Summer in the Winter. In these days it isn't opinion we look for. What we want most is that the fellow on the other side of table do more eating and less talking It begins to look as though the jobs were less in number than the job seekers. Perhaps it may prove to be interesting to watch for the fast approaching moment when Mr. Harding will lose his place as the 'Saviour of the Race.' A white man from Ohio has been appointed assistant Register of the Treasury. The office of Register of the U.S. Treasury is one usually given to a colored man under Republican administrations, but Southerners have made such a howl this year that President Harding has not appointed any one. The appointment of a white assistant Register may be a sign that Mr. Harding will give this plum to a white man, and it may not. Who knows? Three white men with faces blacked robbed a fast mail train near Houston, Texas, last week and grabbed several registered mail pouches worth several thousands of dollars. Keep your eyes peeled on burglars nowadays. They may be white behind the ears. The chief ambition of every rational being no matter what his station in life, is to live just as long as possible. Moreover, there is no happening of equally frequency in the lives of men that they seem less able to become reconciled to than that of dying. Among men and women of all races and climics, where there is a medium of intelligence, there will be found that insatiable desire to hang on to the one known existence. And curiously enough, it will be noted that among the Christian nations where the belief in future and more ideal existence is most dominant, the desire for a continuation of the present existence will be found strongest. Thus we find that ever since man became civilized and began to battle successfully with the forces of state, and noting how man like other elements finally disintegrated, he has been casting about seeking some means whereby he might retard the ravages of old age and stay the hand of the Grim Reaper. Eldoradoes--fountains of perpetual youth--have seen his dream for ages, yet so far his quest has been in vain. And yet, it is an accepted fact beyond all con- tention that, though he cannot defeat the ultimate toll of nature, he nevertheless has it within his pow- er to add a goodly sum of years to his natural ex- istence. And this can be accomplished by no more persuasive method than by practicing a simple sys- tem of athletic exercise. The ancient Greeks were the first among the civilized nations of the earth to discover the physical benefits of athletics. And every well-read person is familiar with the sports and games for which the Greeks were famous. But unlike the nations of the present day, the Greeks glorified the masculine rather than the femi- line form, and all their endeavours in athletics were to the perfecting of the masculine body. But with the coming of the Christian Era and the rapid growth of modern civilization, interest in the masculine body with the, exception of college and M. C. A. circles, was practically lost sight of, and it was not until the coming of world war with a demand for perfect masculine machines to go to the battle-front that the nations awoke to the declarable condition of their manhood. Of course, from time to time, a Roosevelt or some prophet in the wilderness of magazine advertisements and cried aloud the need of a better manhood, but they were regarded as fadists or cranks. The war opened their eyes with the result that today, there is more interest in athletics and other health-giving exercises than ever before. Still there are thousands of people who regard all sorts of sports or athletics as a fad or a luxury. Especially is it necessary that the young folks of today both male and female avail themselves of the increased facilities the various states, municipalities and the nation are providing in order to bring about physically better and healthier citizenry. Even if one does not care to engage publicly in such pastimes he should not overlook the very great benefits that can be derived even from a little exercise with the dumb bells or some other simple device in the home, for by so doing, as we stated above, one may add considerably to one's sojourn in this old earth. "Right Church, Wrong Pew" Archdeacon Philip S. Irwin, white, who was tarred and feathered by the KuKluXkian at Miami, Florida recently, probably got no more than he deserved if the statements of his superior officer are to be believed. The white archdeacon headed a colored Protestant Church in Miami, and was roughly handled by the KuKluX on the ground, that he was preaching "social equality" to colored folk. In his official report on the incident Rt. Reverend Cumeron Mann, white, Protestant Episcopal Bishop of Southern Florida denied the charges made against the Archdeacon; and added: "Archdeacon Irwin did not preach race equality and intermarriage. He does not hold to social or political equality for Negroes in the United States, has never taught it, and in his missionary work has incurred disfavor with some Negroes by his opposition to Societies and Movements which uphold the doctrine. With all due respect to the great church these white ministers misrepresent, the question naturally evolves, "What in the thunder did the archdeacon preach? It could not be Christianity which rests upon the fundamental of fatherhood of God and brotherhood of man". It must be some new fangled special brand of cracker religion which Archdeacon Irwin and the Right Reverend Bishop of Florida have for the colored people of Florida. Under this scheme, colored folk have one way to get to heaven and white folk another. Maybe there will be a high heaven and a low one, and all the colored people will be put in the low heaven without any vote and any right to intermingle with the superior bunch up in the high heaven. In other words rank in heaven will be based on color, and the whiten you are the fathers front you sit. Great God, is such religion interpreted by the 'white Protestant Episcopal preachers in the South. We agree with the Ku Klux Klan that the Archdeacon should have been tarred, feathered and given eighty blows with a strap instead of forty. We object, however, to the Ku Klux Klan doing the work that should have been carried out with zeal eagerness by the Archdeacon's own parishers. Well, By George! (By Wm. Plekens—The Associated Negro Press) Lloyd George has spoken on the Japanese question. George, is leader of Great Britain and the master mind in international politics today, and just as he shamed us when we had to compare him with our own president at the Versailles Peace Conference, so now does he shame us when we must compare his words on the question of the Japanese with those of our two-cent, politician from Mississippi and California. Lloyd George says that Japan has been a "faultful ally," that the alliance has "stood the test of time," and that in the Far East "Japan has special interests." He gives these irresistable reasons for renewing the alliance between his country and Japan. "No greater calamity could overtake the world than a further accentuation of the world's divisions upon lines of race. ***** Our foreign policy can never hang itself in any sense upon differences of race and civilization between East and West. It would be fatal to the empire." These words do not really need any comment; they are plain and complete. George knows that with the greater part of the world, and especially the greater part of the British Empire colored, it would be foolish to start any war along a color line. The whites might get by now, with their superior organization, but a change would come with time. And besides, George knows other things: that Japan is more useful to Britain than is California—more useful even than the United States of America. There is today much more danger of rivalry and warfare between the United States and Britain than between Britain and Japan. We do not hear of any anti-Britain demonstrations in Nippon. The British and the Americans are too much alike in their commercial ambitions to live in the same house in eternal peace. And, notice: George did not talk until he got ready to act on this treaty matter. The little "premiers" from other parts of the empire did all the talking before hand: Hugues of Australia and his colleagues from Canada did all the shouting about a "white man's world," etc.—till they got to London, and faced George. But just think of what could have happened if George were a fool? The great color-war which Mississippi and Australia are ever trying to bring upon us, might have been hastened forward by a generation. And a color war would make the earth a shambles from which the Sun would wish to hide its face. Lloyd George's pronouncement is one of the most important utterances of modern times, and yet he will no longer be regarded as "a good white man" by John Sharp Williams of Mississippi. The action of the Harding administration in backing up the Virginia and Georgia "Lily whites" is discouraging only to the old line colored politicians who have made their living for years out of graft in the Republican party. If colored people will stop supporting any party because it has the name of Republican and instead vote for men and measures, they will find white Democrats, Socialists and all others with a "welcome" on the doormat. The Socialist Party in a telegram to the recent National Association of Colored People's Conference in Detroit pledged itself to work toward the abolition of disfranchisement, discrimination against colored people, lynchings and race riots. What about voting sometime for the socialists candidates? For the second time in two months a building on East 48th Place, Chicago has been bombed. Still they say lightening and such things never hit twice the same spot.

FORUM DOES NOT WANT TO FOR HOSPITAL TREATMENT SAYS WOUNDED SOLDIER You are generally recognized as a stalwart defender of the faith—as one always ready to speak out in behalf of the Colored people of the United States. It is then that newspapers and other organizations have not protested to the War and Treasury Departments against sending Colored soldiers south, certainly must contain a ridden Alabama out certainly must know where the South feels in this matter when the Chambers of Commerce in Montgomery and Tuskegee special session assailors protested that soldiers had been to France sent to Alabama as our Southern friends to feel that these soldiers will not be modest and major Mofon counselled them to be sent to France. Our newspapers and race organizations owe it to the Colored soldiers who were shot and killed in France and on garrison duty; to take steps to see that, this outrage is not consummated. One needs only read both 'white' and colored newspapers to paper to find out what will be in that both-ridden section. You owe it to us who have stood up against prejudice in all forms to undertake to fight our battles in our mission, sending that you are our defender. The Treasury Department announces that it is the purpose of the Department to way may propose Hospital with Major Moton's School in Alabama. None of the Colored soldiers who suffered the derivations of France wishes to have Moton's Nelson placed in hospital away. They have not forgotten. They never will. Please do something at once to tell the Government we don't want to be Alabama for hospital treatment. A wounded, WORLD WAR VERTAN WANTED A PARENTAL SCHOOL The story goes that a millionaire shoe dealer—owner of a chair of stores—when asked to endorse a check, was forced to acknowledge that he could not sign, his name. Questioned concerning his amazing success in view of his lack of schooling, he told the following story. "I was once penniless, and friends offered to get me a position as sexton in a church. I was heartbroken, when because I could not read and write, I lost the opportunity to earn a modest living. Fortunately, the very next day, I got a job in a small shoe store. This gave me a chance to develop my unrecognized business ability and you see the result," Chuck, he added. "If I had been hurdened with an education, perhaps I'd still be a half starved All of which, absurd as it may seem, merely introduces him to the readers of the Afro-American as the exception, among the uninterested of at least an elementary school education for every American* child, white or colored. Ideally the chance there for every child, the presence of an elementary school at art or officers as a recognized part of every efficient school system attests to the number of children who, for a variety of reasons, do not benefit from public education. In a certain proportion of cases, the attendance officers are able so to adjust matters that the children are sent back to school to the failures, whom it is impossible to control while they remain in their homes. What is the next step, when after the parent has been finely by a magistrate the child continues to fail. He must be placed where he is forced, at least for a time, to get his education, and the Parental School is the result, the children are sent there have in Baltimore recognized the need of school buildings for four groups of children, white boys, white girls, colored boys and colored girls. Surprisingly, may seem, these four classes are presented among the sent to the Parental School. They are all white boys. It is safe to say that trunyon on the part of children is in due either directly or indirectly to improper conduct on the part of many.

SKIPWITH DISCUSSING A CRACKER EDITORIAL To the many colored Republican voters of this City and State, please take notice in the Editorial of the Baltimore American of the 19th Inst, an article appeared in the "Caption a good for the South" to encourage this Editorial to sound a keynote for a general unrest in our ranks in these parts; "The fight is on." Just a few days ago the Lilly, White Republicans of Virginia met in a pink mug, Virgil supremacy, in this article eliminated the colored Republicans from the Primary. The Baltimore American, the leading Republican paper of this City and State, and one in which we had the utmost confidence showed its cloven feet by commenting that the White Platform only does the American comment Virginia, but says its a good thing for her sister*States of which Maryland is one. It further says that Virginia has the opportunity of changing the entire South with the effort of eliminating the colored voters. Is this the Baltimore American, which just three years ago, said that the colored man should share in the American Citizen for the part he so well in the great European War? It also said that if the colored man is eliminated, that the Republican party of the South, will grow more and more, you see what we are up against, now is the time for us to unite our forces, not as Africo-Mexicanists or what nots, but as Afro-Americanists and as African-American fight for our rights. Let the American continue to encourage wrong doing, in due time it shall cease. I am sure you will. W. H. SKRWITH Few People Know How Henry O. Flipper Entered Harding's Official Family A. B. Washington, D. C., Aug. 4. —Not only is Henry O. Flipper, assistant secretary of Interior in charge of Alaska railways, regarded, as a queer duck because he keeps to himself and makes very few friends, but it happened that the first appointment Secretary Fall made was that of former Lieutenant Flipper. The story runs that young Flipper, shortly after his graduation from West Point, met Fall, running a ranch down in New Mexico. The colored lad. Just out of school, he was a white rancher, urged him to study and go to school and supervised his reading. Largely thru Flipper's advice and help, Fall was sent to Congress and latter to the Senate. When a member of the Senatorial committee, investigating the oil situation in Mexico, the then Senator Fall, made Leight Flipper a senator. Fall headed the committee, Lieut Flipper did most of the work. When President Harding elevated the New Mexico senator to the post of secretary of the Interior, one of the Senator's first steps was to look up Henry Flipper and give him a $5,000 job. Not only did the secretary of Interior appoint Mr. Flipper, but he said his nomination would help to hold all assignments of white people who can't work with him. New York City, Aug. 4.—Because the War Department believed that Arthur K. Bird of Providence, R. I., a colored man, purposefully enlisted in a white regiment, young Bird was dishonorably discharged last April on the charge of fraternity punishment. He was positioned by the N. A. C. P., brought to light the fact that Bird had enlisted as a colored man but that the registration clerk had said it made no difference and assigned him to the 58th Infantry, which is white, at Camp Lewis, Washington. The other day Bird got his "honorable" discharge papers. THINGS THAT NEVER HAPPEN By GENE BYRNES I HAVE TWO NUMBERS AND SEVENTY ONE DOLLARS.

AFRICAN DOINGS Liberia—A ferocious shark caused three deaths along the banks of the Vincent and Mechlin rivers. It is the first time sharks have appeared in these rivers in 30 years. According to the African Sun, a news paper published by W. A. Bryant in Liberia, Secretary of Interior, Hon. John W. Cooper, spent eleven hours on official bushland in Bassa. He made desperate efforts to blot out the Human Leopard Society which is giving the Government trouble. During the last two years the society has claimed over 200 victims in this section alone. Liberia claims $3,977,125 as her share of the Germany separation indemnity. Smallpox has broken out in Grand Bassa, County.

Court Awards Miss Lillian Taylor Of Dallas, Texas, $8,000,000, Oil Lands Dallas, Texas, Aug. 4.—The Supreme Court has decided that $8,000,000 worth of oil lands near Homa, La., belongs to Nissan, a young woman, nowrowing day's work for a living. Over $5,000,000 worth of oil has been taken out of the land already and it is said that the property has a valuation still of $8,000,000 or more. Miss Taylor inherited the land from her father, but believing it worthless, moved from the Louisiana town here. In her absence another colored man, George Hirsch, squatted on the property similarly to the Gulf Refining Company which has been drawing off oil readily for the past few years. Several companies, trying to get control of some of the land, investigated the Harris title to it and found Miss Taylor to be the real owner. She didn't believe she could win her case and so promised the white lawyer one-half of the estate for carrying it to the court, where the lawyer was not allowed when the lawyer told her she had won.

Authority to remove headquarters of the Mosaic Templars of America; sometimes called the "million dollar fraternity" and selling the property of the Order in Little Rock was given by the National Grand Lodge at the Quadrennial Convention of the Templars here Cedarwood last week. Ensured conditions in the South, including race riots and destruction of colored people's property, lynchings and burnings, caused the organization to ask for removal to a place further North, where their property will be safe. Twenty-five hundred delegates grafted the authority asked for by a quanimous vote. No steps will be taken for removing at present but the resources, it is said, will be removed gradually. The National Temple at Little Rock is valued at $250,000. Report of the secretary showed the total assets of the organization to be $1,032,000, with liabilities of less than $50,000. - Seven thousand members have been taken in the last four years.

FRIDAY AUGUST 5th, 1921 "VENGEA Of The G Chapter Six THE TWO GRADUATES "VENGEANCE Of The GODS" Meanwhile, Mrs. Elliot was receiving long letters from Madame Thirtee telling of Winnam's arrival in Paris, of his studies and of the fine impression he was making on the French people. When letters came from Winnam, he invariably asked after Essie, her daughter and Aunt Katy. Sometimes she inquired about Mrs. Elliot was in the naunt or reading these letters to Aunt Katy in the kitchen or dining-room, because of the genuine interest which Aunt Katy manifested in any news from Master William. On day after reading one of these letters, the proud Mrs. Elliot commented: "I tell you, Aunt Katy, although n--r boys don't have the same privilege as white boys, still if they had any ambition to learn and work and do what, they can do, they might make their mothers happy instead of causing them so much trouble. Aunt Katy's reply was a speechless gaze, which would have been objection had Mrs. Elliot been the wiser. If only white people could feed the minds of black people... However, one day Aunt Katy's mother suddenly gave way under the rule she once white we man was continually on the black grandmother's secret knowledge and firm conviction. "Miss Elliot," she began, "I don't believe any one in this blood business. If Jim had had the other chile's chance, who knows? I heard you read one day from Master William's letter, that there was some colored boys over there from Georgia 'an' South China, and 'they' done as well as anybody in their studies. Praps those people over there get different toward colored people and give 'em better chance. Essie says for 'n' white folks in Pars treated her niece 'n' her own white folks treated her, 'n' "..... There is not another mother's heart on earth like that which best with African blood. It can be the children of other mothers, even those of the oppressor, almost as dearly as it loves its own. The former mother is not in more honour, but in very fact of flesh "boils" and blood and infection, the great-but not least mother in the world." Just not a postal welcome from her three three, Little Mary's father, Sara was as scandal. He had been close soaped for fighting on account of some clingy and for defending himself, it was this takeable step-father who had smoked around to the struggling house. There is not another mother's bad, you ought to know better, better on earth like that which if God had meant for your race to be like white people, he would have the children of other mothers; even those of the oppressor, all but those n—rs that William most as early as it loves its own, spoke of are almost white and have a lot of white blood" .... hence, in very fact of flesh "Loss o' white blood!" shrieked and blood and affection, the greatest mother in the world." Just act a royal welcome from these three, Little Mary's father, Sam was less cordial. He had against some anger urge to disarm liked Jim. When Jim was close to history or utter arrested for fighting on account some thrilling prophecy. Her bury and for defending himself, who was this tale-bearing stet-father wounded pride. Her mind was struggling against the "Oh, Aunt Katy!" as she called her own grandmother. "Oh, Ms. Elliott! they are after them again... bloodhounds... gues!" Seizing the hand of the excited girl, Aunt Katy made off for the cabin and Essie. As she rushed out, she laughed the uncanny laugh and said. "Venomous of God!" The year of the dogs and a few scattered shots could clearly be heard by Mrs. Elliott, as she stood there motionless. Continued next week.

LACK OF HARMONY IN BUSINESS LEAGUE Special Writer Predicts That Far Will Fly At Atlanta Meeting Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 4—Lack of harmony between Dr. R. J. Molon and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, president and secretary, respectively of the National Negro Business League, said, will seriously hammer the big annual meeting he announced for August 15th to 4th. Some months ago the local Business League in earnest to preparing the annual meeting, organizing organization was effected, and there is at present a paid support of the local braphe who is helping to push matters for the coming annual session. The local League announced that it would give a great exhibition during the session, show the progress of the race business. There have been some responses and there will be an exhibit, but it will be odd like what was at accumulated. Where is the trouble? The trouble seems to be in the official make up of the national body. There seems to be a very low tension, if not friction, between leading officials of that body, each of whom have keen ideas and ideals having in mind the promotion work of the league. people at the big far sign, who liked to talk there soo the white tokes" would oc- session, personally mention being, "silly," "leading at," at white, the Jim would of whom the tokes, and seize, his hit ideas co- bate the valin. Very recently there was a meeting held in Philadelphia, attended by Dr. R. R. Moton, President of the League, and others, seeking to find some way out of the difficulty, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary of the League, was not at the meeting, and it is unclear whether he was involved. Several suggestions advanced for the purpose of rehabilitating the league, but it is certain that the forthcoming meeting will be filled with even the Philadelphia meetings, when the matter of other was debated question to an hour before the start of the nominating Committee, since the establishment of the League, it has been the custom of Dr. Scott to send out publicity for the meeting to the newspapers, weeks in advance. This year has been very little publicity going to the newspapers from the Wash- ington headquarter. Dr. Scott was secretary at the Tuskegee Institute under the founder of the Leaguer. Booker Washington. He held the same position under Principal R. R. Mooney, until he came to Washington during the war to become a special assistant in the War Department. William had spent his four years in college, and Jim had four in prison. John Lilley had told him in katie that William was not yet to return, to the pharma company, to go direct from college to France, where he would live with his Madeline Dupree, and study at the year or two. But Jim was cousin home, and Aunt Katy and Rose, and Mary who was now nearly fifteen years old, were preparing to receive him. In spite of what Aunt Katy had told her, Rose still loved Jim, and Aunt Katy loved him too. He was a part of their eyes. Had he been their boy from babyhood? Age, with all his waywardness, he had been infectionally and 'objectionable to Aunt Katy and Rose, and beautiful family, and was big brother, worshipful, knight, and hero. Nearly all his gifts and quarrels had been in defense of In the four years of his absence she had greatly mooled this devoted brother, for she did not share the secret of the order woman. Essie loved him maternally, but she did not doubt the truth of the confession and disclosure of Amat Katy. She remembered that while they were in France and before they left New York letters and coming from the New Orleans and renting how little "William" would have, nothing to do with her at first, and saying that she had to gradually win a life from an arsenal star. Amat Katy in the kitchen. The thing was plain on her when once you knew it, or there was Jing; angular, pate and tan, phlegmatic and vindictive, wield William was in feature rounded and in color brunette, and emphatic in disposition. But in spite of all, they loved him, and were "killing the fated calf," as Aunt Katy expressed it, for his return. "Ah declare," he told Mr. Ellis, "Ah all wanted to do my body by Jim, but he been de most manner'sest boy. Ah try to each him dat if he is a bright matter, he jes' lak' other n--sss, but he ain't got no regards for me, as Ah attus teared his hare 'gins' who fokes gwine git him in trouble." In court Sam testified: "Ah nuur could make dat boy mine me wouldn't even go to Sunday cause Aunt wuz so Soopn-under." Aunt Katy and Essie welcomed Jim with embraces and with which the self-consciousness of he had with some eyes, her teeth had always been a hero, and for the last four years she and pictured him in her imagination as bravely enduring some feature for the sake of his little sis as he called her. The structure whom she now saw in the arms of her mother and grandmother, was so different from the creation of her dreams. It was cold, hard and uncontrollable. The welcome which had been given to them, the gifts, did not seem to appeal to him. Indeed he spoke as it he got expect to stag with them, her would go after off. He showed interest only when he put his attention about Mary's shoulders and later her head saying: "At was all for you, Little Ros." It there be any sentiment in us, we will have those for whom we cared. We can love them even better than they can love us, our children is both love and love. Mother's love is the greatest love in the world because mother lays most than the significant after. They prevailed, upon him to stay with them. Such true and loving hearts could win even Jim. He solemnly trailed in the presence of Sam, not when alone with the other three, he would offer despite lots of phi'erences and primes to the awful state, telling of the rapacity and beauty of the guards and keepers. He swore violently whenever anyone called the name of Elliott, Aunt Eary and Essie and Mary takes in his presence about Jim never smoke to Elliot. Elliot never spoke to Jim. The encounter managed to get a job with a neighboring planter, as work was scarce. One day as he was driving a wagon along the road, he not Elliot on horse back. The road was so narrow that even a man or horse could not safety pass unless the latter drew a bit to the side. Jim drove straight ahead in the middle of the road, driving the approach of Elliot. He had to turn his horse down a steep embankment to escape the wagon. That evening, Sam kort eyeing Jim hopping about work and wages, hunkily jumping in with: "I jes happened by de Big House. Our white, foken need me; han's and they pays heap more in other white jobs, and Mr. Ellut't me to tell Jim"..... "Go to hell!" fairly yelled Jim, as he reached for his hat and walked out.

Young, who has been besieged by his friends to run as a Republican candidate for the Legislature in the Fourth District, says he does not see his way clear to accede to their wishes. "While I greatly appreciate the interest my friends have manifested," he told a representative of the AERO-AMERICAN, "I am afraid my business interests are in danger. While a large part of my time look-ing after some interests there, and Mr. John W. Rich and I have just bought an 82.20 square foot on the Old Fresherak Road, which will be developed as home sites. I am will- pleased to have a home site, however, to make and develop it." ILLUSTRATED COMICAL JOKE HA- HA- HA- HA SAY, ARE YOU LAUGHING AT ME? NO. SIR! WELL, WHAT ELSE IS THERE AROUND HERE TO LAUGH AT? Local, Banker Suggests The Canning Industry As Worth While Field That capital from other cities should be invited to invest here is the view taken by William Lewis, of the banking firm of Hatchett and Lewis, who has just returned from a business trip West. "Take, for instance," he said the other day, "the canning industry, in which colored people are largely employed in Maryland. They do the processing and other work necessary for packing, and thereby understand it. If capital from other cities could be induced to grow here then we could open a big canning house here or some other part of the State. Chicago would be an ideal distributing point for Western cities, having large colored populations, and the race would profit. There is only one canning house in the State run by the race. I believe, and it is located at St. Michaels. "We can sit around the dinner table and give beautiful illustrations of what the race ought to do, but, what we Baltimoreans want is action. There is plenty of opportunity along all lines." Mr. Lewis said that he visited the recently-organized Liberty Life Insurance Company while in Chicago. This company occupies a floor over the Roosevelt Bank, at 35th street and Grand Boulevard. About twenty clerks are employed. The Roosevelt Bank has many colored stockholders, but all of the officials are white. Colored men are among those employed as clerks there. Many Candidates For Office Now Held By George McMechen According to well-informed Elks, there will be a scramble for the position of Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks at the annual session of the Grand Lodge in Boston the latter part of this month. There are candidates galore. There seems to be prevailing the idea that the next head of the Order should not come from the professional class. If this opinion prevails at Boston then a dark horse may succeed George W. E. McMechen, who is ineligible for re-election as Grand Exalted Ruler having served two years. Then there is a man out in Chicago who wants to succeed George E. Eates, of Newark, N. J., as grand secretary The last three Grand Exalted Rulers—J. Frank Wheaton, Armand W. Scott and George W. P. McMechen—have been lawyers. Then Drs. James E. Mills and William E. Atkins have been among the physicians. The hymen who have filled the post are B"F. Howard, the deceased founder of the Order, and Harry H. Pace. J. Monumental Lodge of Elks is planning to send a big delegation to the Boston gathering. A band will be taken along to help onliven things, and "McMechen will be given a big send off as the rearing head. BISHOP HURST-SAILS Bishop John Hurst sailed for Europe a few days ago. Besides visiting on the continent, he will also attend the African Conference in London. Messrs. Harry*T. Pratt and Ma- ron Hawkins are among other Earl- monticans who may attend the Congress. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Clark of 1913 Druid Hill avenue motored to Mutual, Md., recently to visit Mrs. Clark's mother; Mrs. Anna Dixon. The Institution Conducted By Health Department Looks After Babies Of Mothers Who Work Out COST ONLY 15 CENTS Another institution having for its object the care of the future citizens of Baltimore and this glorious Republic, is the Municipal Day Nursery which is being maintained at 1513, Presstman St. by the City Health Department. This nursery has been in existence just about a year, having been established last August. The present structure is a three-story dwelling formerly occupied as a family residence. The capacity of the nursery is about 35 children, but at present, in order to meet as near as is humanly possible the great demands that are being made on the institution, Mrs. Howard (white) who is in personal charge, is giving accommodations to 35 children daily, 10 more than should be accepted, to maintain unrestrictedly the normal advantages of the institution. Only the nominal fee of 15 cents per day for a child; or 25 cents for two, is charged, which does not begin to cover the cost of keeping the child, but is exacted more to give, the mothers a chance to feel that they are contributing something to the support of the child and thus not altogether a recipient of charity, than for any actual revenue. The building has been thoroughly renovated and is kept in a spotless condition. A screened-in porch is used for play, a bright airy dining-room with a low circular table around which is arranged tiny chairs is visible as one entres the front door. On the second floor, in the rear, are the bath and dressing rooms, here each child is provided with a pair of rompers and its own clothes are put into an individual sanitary bag with its name on it. Each child is also provided with its own wash-cloth towel and tooth-brush. The large front room of this floor is used as a restroom for the larger children, and also as a play room when the weather does not permit playing on the porch. On the third floor is the nursery for the infants. Here little white iron cribs with a sanitary rubber mattress is provided for each little tot, where arrayed in little more than the garb of nature they may roll to their heart's content. Dr. Mary Sherwood, who is in charge; Mrs. Howard, a trained City Nurse, seems deeply interested in the welfare of their little charges and the latter's greatest concern is that the Health Department officials do not seem to regard with favor her suggestion that they purchase larger quarters where a larger number of children can be accommodated. Mrs. Bertha Chew is matron and Mrs. Gross nurse-maid. A maternity clinic is also a part of this institution, where expectant mothers are given medical care and advice, and 10-day service of a skilled nurse during the period of confinement. HORNER DISPLEASES Voters over in the Fifth Ward say that Harry C. Horner, the white Republican committeeman, Should have named more colored election officials, as there are 1,900 colored voters against 2,100 white there.

Brown looked happy when the news was told him at the City, Inil that President Harding had reprieved him for the third time from hanging for the alleged murder of Harriett A. Kavanaugh, white nurse at the Naval Academy, Annapolis. Attorney James A. Finch, in charge of pardons in the Department of, Justice at Washington, was in the city on Wednesday of last week checking up some of the evidence, which has been submitted since Brown's conviction in effort to show the man innocent. Accompanied by several Secret Service men, he also visited Annapolis the scene of the crime. On his advice, Attorney General Daughterly urged the President to grant the third reprieve. Brown is maintaining a calm exterior. "I am absolutely innocent of the crime," he told his attorney, J. Steward Davis, when he visited him the other day. Mrs. E. J. Wheatley, and others who have worked faithfully for the condemned were happy over the third reprieve. "I believe the man absolutely innocent," Attorney Davis says, "and would have the public to believe there is no politics in this matter, Governor Ritchie, and the Baltimore Sun to the contrary notwithstanding. It is only the belief that the man is absolutely innocent that is impelling us to work so hard to save his life." IMPROVEMENTS DEFERRED Owing to the high cost of building, improvements to the First, People's Church, Bond and Jefferson streets, have been deferred. The improvements, which will cost about $16,000 in interest, will cover the installation of a new pipe organ and choir loft and the putting in of a steam heating plant. Rev. C.

Hosts of friends, including a number of ministers, called during the evening, and wished him long life. He also received a number of gifts. "I am still Young," the minister told his friends, "and I intend to be Young." Born on Harford avenue in 1846, near where Bishon Waters lived, he was roamed in the African Methodist Church. He received his early education in a private school and forty-six years ago enforced the ministry of the Bahi-more Conference. He recorded for length of service in one conference is the longest within 100 years, the late Rew. J. J. Herbert, who served 37 years, being his most rival. He has been a deep student, and few men in the conference has his general knowledge and one know the history of the Baltimore Conference better than he. "I have served charges all over Maryland and in the District of Columbia," Rev. Young told a representative of the AFROAMERICAN. "I have served as a presiding elder and in each position that I filled I tried to leave affairs in better shape than I found them. "I do not think the men entering the conference now have to stand as hard a test as they did in my time. The ministers of my day were shirts for what they believed to be right and the young men who would enter to meet tests so surely. I have lived to see charges." Mr. Young has been twice married, his second wife being Mrs. Mary M. Young. His children are: William K. Young, New Charles H. Young, Jr. Dayton, O.: Howard E. Young, Attorney E.: Howard E.

Then he would have the world to believe that the reason I joined Trinity Church was because the Metropolitan M. E. Church did advance in the church covered by Metropolitan, M. E. Church and worked as hard there as I have in the A. M. E. Church. Now the reason I joined the A. M. E. Church and had I known the difference in the two churches of the M. E. Church, and yet I feel an honor to leave the mother Church and join the Daughter. What in the world is Mr. W. B. Hamer doing that church? Did Trinity Church not too small for him? Well, well if you are the same Hamer I am done with it. Your fellow could not run him h6 and his committees are trying to run Reuel Church and the Pastor. Well you need not tell me the names of your committee. Well Mr. W. B. Hamer is dismissing ministers on similar charges. Well I suspect if Bieghon Johnson have had anointed Mr. W. B. Hamer and his committee it would have penned a line had you not insulted the ministry and laymen of the church and had I known rightly that it was Trinity Hamer. I don't think I have any further to say. The most important to know was who the committee was. You made so many false statements in your answer concerning myself and the M. E. Church and I preferred to prove them, false. I would not like you and your committee to sit in my case to deal with my guilt or inception in the Rev. J. R. Nelson, Pastor of Wayman Mem. A. M. E.

In The World Of The Drama And Moving Pictures ANITA BUSH TELLS STORY Pretty Actress Tells How She Launched Fist Stock Company Now The Quality Amusement Co. PICKED CHARLES GILPIN Now Famous Actor In "Emperor Jones" Took Part In Experiment Since childhood, my ambition had been to be a Dramatic Artist. I think Edna Day and Cecil Spooner whom I in my school days had a stock company at the Bijou Theatre, Brooklyn, was the cause. To say, I thought them great is put bold. thing I wanted to see myself at the head of a company. I was still a little girl when my chance came appear in something real. Something heavy, although my part was very light. It was at the Columbia Theatre, Brooklyn, when Melbourne Inc. Dowell, whom I think was wonderful. "Played Anthony and Cleopatra I was in each scene. I teamed every one's part. My sister Virgile was also in the show. We wore go, home, and over the show. go thru the whole show. She play- ing with I and I Anthony. It Schoenks, Beautiful Version. This was not my first time on the stage, as I had made my debut at the New York Theatre in 1963 with the company of those two and Bert Williams, staying there 7 weeks. And jumping from there to the Shaftesbury Theatre, London, England, following the Edmu May Co. in. Our run there lasted eleven months, while there we had the honor of appearing before the late King Edward. After Grouping 6 years with Williams and Walker, I launched out a single in Vaudeville, made good by a group of 4 girls "The Hula Hula Dancers." In 1913 started out with my girls and a bunch of Walter Plimmer Contracts on Monday morning for the New Duchess Theatre Pokepee, N. Y. Arrived at 10.30 A. M. eleven o'clock I was put out of commission by an incumbent stage manager minning Which he control of and which bit me in the back sending me headlong out into the orchestra from the stage. Result, on crutches for a year. Lawsuit against the Utica Hipodrome Amusement Corp. ended in 1915 in Judge De Gines Court. Jury awarded me $1100.00, which I paid in cash and collected penny. The day the case ended I went to bed with the pneumonia. The Drama Bee buzzed in my head when my fever was 103. It told me that was the way I could make my living as I was no longer able to dance because of my injuries. I knew a manager who could give me information I needed. Soekaw as a baby I got up and dressed a million dollars running through my brain. There were two colored theatres in Harlem. Now it was up to me to decide, which to offer my proposition to—who would accept it? It was the Frenchy! I finally beating Frenchy! Frenchy! Frenchy! Well, that was the nickname of Duncan Elmore, Manager of the Lincoln Theatre for Mrs. Downe. Well I let my dime decide for me, so after it did, I went to him. He happened, just at the time when they were very poor. And Elmore, being a shrewd manager was ready to accept anything that might boom business. He took to my plan so quickly that my head, which was already shrewd, was told. I told him that I was going to launch something new in New York Theatrical Circles, "A Colored Dramatic Stock Company, The Anita Bush Dramatic Stock Company." Immediately he saw possibilities in it. And asked my plans. Would him. His first question was what company you be ready, and what could I give him the Company for? 'O! Joy! My head wouldn't stop cancelling on my shoulders. Then I gave him a good figure as I wanted to pay my actors well so that I could get good results. On the salary, he never murmured. He just wanted me to work. That was Thursday, so I told him I would ready Monday a week. I met him the next morning in Lewis Rodeishinner's Office and signed the contract. Now for my line up. My next move was to secure a director-mick my plays, which were con- tinued. How many hours was a heavy old Companion would have undertaken called 'The Girl at the Font.' A pretty play which required a lot of singing, which to amuse an audience. showdays, and whose oration I respected—laughed at me when I said I was going to start a Dramatic Company. He told me I was crazy, that the time was not ripe for such a venture and where would one that had knowledge to Weil. I knew that I believed the time was ripe and that I would find cast that could make good. So I went a picking For Col. Drawley, which was a heavy part I secured Chus, S. Gilpin, who is doing such commendable work in Emporor Jones; for my leading woman I secured Mrs. Charlotte Bremen and she added a star when she now a star as Juvenile, 'Also Arthur Wison, and I did the ingenuue. Cast called for a only. The opening was a success. Frenchy had advertised neatly. I was the happiest little slick ingenuine in the world. All the best people, some of whom had never crossed the sill of the Lincoln before was there to welcome him. House was packed and so was the sidewalk. Everything went off like clockwork, everyone knew his part. I wish Broadway could see Gilpin do Col. Drawley. I shall never forget how the people of Harlem accepted my offering. From then they named me the little mother of Brave. No one knew what the little mother went through that week getting ready, and learning her part. But it was worth it. As time went on my company increased. I stayed at the Lincoln for a long run. Until Mrs. Downey thought she would rather call the Company the Lincoln Stock Co. instead of The Anita Rush Co. so I wanted to my company to move in to the Lafayette. As I thought I had worked to hard to make the Company a success, to lose my identity. Then what usually happens to the pioneer happened. The men with the money stopped in and enlarged the work. Put in 2½ inches of Cement in Chicago, built an Amusement Corp., and from my little Company has sprung a great Corporation. As now it embraces many of the actors. I launch into the business and also the experience ones I had employed, and the Lafayette Company. The Lafayette is still the home Colored Corporation. Headed by Mr. E. E. Brown, who has done wonderful things to bring the Colored Show Business to the top of the ladder. My happiness lies in the large roses from little acorns grown and happiness to know that the "Anita Bush Dramatic Stock Co." was the acorn. Dressing Room Club Parades In Kilties The Dressing Room Club, composed of the leading colored actors, performers, composers, musicians, authors and artists in allied professions, staged a parade on Broadway, in the richest district of July 28, that because of the distinctions of the Scottish costume worn, the personal popularity of its members and the fact that, it was the first appearance of a Negro club and the fact that, he big street attracted much attention. After parading Broadway, from 40th to 50th St. they went to Harlem, and there strutted for the edification of their colored friends on Lenox and Seventh Avenue. They coming of the same day, they presenting a number of their members at the Casino in a big vaudeville program, after which their guests danced till early morning.

Mr. Harry Collins is progressive and enjoys the endorsement of the city officials for the orderly manner in which he operates his place. In the afternoon a trio of young ladies billed as the Elite Trio provides the entertainment. Vernetto Wilson, pianist; Alice E. Proctor; cornetist and Jesse H. Bydr on the traps constitute the group.

Harris, editor of the New York News, fitted suit in the Supreme Court of New York State last week, against Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, alleging criminal libel and asking $25,000 damages. New York City, Aug. 4.—Efforts of the New York Age to secure the defeat of Alderman George W. Harris when he comes up for reelection next fall, caused one of the bittest newspaper fights New York has ever seen. Alderman W. Harris was at the New York News and was at an employee of Fred Moore in the Age. In a recent argument the Age announced that Alderman Harris was utterly unit to hold office and that he perjured himself by swearing to a residence in New York when he acutely maintained a residence in Brooklyn. Alderman Harris, in the News, makes no direct reply to the Age, but his friends raked up the alderman's vote. Alderman Moore secured control of the Age from T. Thomas Fortune, fifteen years ago. Friends of Mr. Harris claim that T. Thomas Fortune and a man named Peterson, owners and founders of the New York Age, in financial crisis, borrowed money from Booker T. Washington, head of Tuskegee Institute. When Mr. Washington foreclosed, Mr. Moore is said to have appeared and purchased the apartment and equipment, partly in money and partly by notes. It is claimed that Mr. Moore has never honored these notes and to this day owes the estate of the great lender Washington a fairly large sum of money. HOTEL DALE CAPE MAY, N. J.
