WOULD POISON WHOLE FAMILY Red-Headed Yankee Once Won the Title of "Law and Order" Coolidge Bill Lewis Will Succeed Link Johnson As Political Aide (By The Assa, Negro Press) Washington, Aug. 9.—Political chaos has come as a result of Mr. Harding's death. There is coming about a new alignment of voters and political workers as a result of the assumption of the duties and office of President by Mr. Coolidge. What, most men are asking, is he going to mean to us? In one respect the new President is said to be widely understood. The public seems content for the present to base its estimates of the character it this dyeed-in-the-wool Yankee and red-headed president by his preemery, definite and effective action in the Boston police strike of some years ago, action which resulted in his choice for the Vice-Presidency and his gaining of the name, "Law and Order." Coolidge. Political wiseresses of both races debearo Coolidge to be a man of strong personal convictions. They took upon him as a little man physically, big inside and full of strength. There is some inclination to fear that he may develop Napoleonic tendencies in the firmness and forthrightness of his policies. There is no sign, according to those who have expressed themselves, of the straddler in Coolidge. He will meet issues as they come up to him and dispose of them. Not much so far has been written if the career of the new President is a politician. Despite the fact that he is governor of Massachusetts, the title is king, he is not utilizing the political organization in the Bay State which was responsible for his election, first by a 7,000 majority and again by 125,000. Those interested in the events of the next few months preceding the Republican National Convention with what efficacy Coolidge is going to be able to work in with the Republican leaders of the organization as it now is. Harding was the leader of the party in every way, the titular of the actual head, but will he be able to assume the actual reigns of leadership, a feat that depends on personality, strength of character, and the ability to force co-ordination of the lives and works of strong, big men who are working at visting the themselves and to the Presidency? Will he be able to line up Borah, nson, LaFollette, and the rest of group? Which friends, of Hard- , active, powerful, and cohesive the good of the party organization, will Coolidge be able to retain, will he wish to? Has he any- ing up his sleeve, so to speak? It is expected that the group of Boston politicians who have labored with the new President in his less pretentious days are now to be the heirs presumptive to Presidential favor. There is already in Boston the Coolidge Republican Club, composed of the city's most influential, powerful, and astute Negro political leaders. Despite what is known as Coolidge's austerity, aloofness and quietness, it is also known that he has been close and intimate with this organization. Colored Americans may be compelled now to look in an entirely new direction for the amelioration of political ills. The boys who knew the President when he was a boy, who used to work for him, who have given him this and that advice, and so forth, no longer live in Ohio, but in Massachusetts. What now, it is wondered, will "Bill" Lewis, brilliant Massachusetts lawyer and former Assistant United States Attorney General, do? What of Matthews and the rest of the bunch? While there is every indication that Coolidge will look to Boston his first pointer, it is well recognized that there it will be persistent offers of advice from other points of the compass. The organization that has been working in Georgia National Committeeman, had just begun to function. Whatever Johnson may attempt to do will be significant because of the peculiar nature of his interview connections. He has at his beck and call some of the most stature among Negro politicians, the real professionals. No one, it is believed, can foretell just what it will, these men may be able to expert.

August 9—The Joint children on Unification of the pedia; Episcopal Church and Methodist; Episcopal Church has been in session recently at Hotel Winton in this city. its merger is of significance to Negro race, because there are the Negroes organically a part of Methodist Episcopal Church, the Negro Methodist Church, as the Colored Methodist Methodist Church in America, alim-dependent, is being help- ed by Methodist Episcopal Church in its education and home- work. pan has been worked out and w to be presented first to the conference of the Metho- biscopal Church meeting in england, Massachusetts, next 1924, and then to the General of the Methoist Episcopal Church South, in 1926. These histories have been in progress neven years. The Negro has had representation on the Commission by reason of his residence on the Commission of gothicist Episcopal Church this interests are most largely det. Song Robert E. H. Jones, New Orlea, St. Cincinnati, Ohio, were Negro members of the Com- mission in 1916-20. For the commission 1924-24 Dr. I. G. Gar- dell Penn St. Cincinnati, and Mr. I. Kinchen, formerly Mr. W. Macken, the Negro Commissioner, the Joint Com- mission here, Mr. P. W. Renison, having moved Sierra to Chicago. This Dr. I. Harland Penn, St. Cinc- innati, the only Negro in the first closed. It is expe- spective that another Negro will be selected to fill university on the Commission. I. Garaldell Penn was seen representative of the Assoc- sion Negro Press and asked to assess concerning the Negro to the pro- blem. His statement is as was: be proposed plan preserves in United Church all the rights andges the Negro members ever enjoyed in the Methodist Episcopal Church. The United Church will have jurisdictions, viz. First and Second. The First will preside the Churches Annual Conference and assists in the Methodist Episcopal Church. The Second action will comprise all such Methodist Episcopal Church. Noe 365-192 Negro members thus have bona fide members with others in the United Church. The General Conference will be up of the delegates to the Judicial Conferences, and theates to the Jurisdictional Conferences will come from the Annual Conference. There are twenty Ne-Annual Conference which will representation, as all others, exactly the same basis and in same proportion, in the Jurisdictional Conference number One, the same Negro delegates will be the General Conference cup of both Jurisdictional Conferences. However, said Dr. Penn, "the援援 here last week for eminent to the churches pros in Article VI that the maps of the two churches as at constituted shall be Bishops be United Church without furaction." This means maps Robert E. Jones Matt. Clair will be Bishops of United Church, and in that set privileges and oppoors to seize entire Negro they will not be surpassed by Negroes in public life today. With this merger perfected, as opposed, we shall have in the United Methodist Episcopal and Methodist Episcopal Church.

Of this great there will be two Bishops are Negroes. 2044 Negro miners, 3,465 Negro lay preachers, 162 Negro members, organically part of the United Church, others will be White or of other races. Besides the Negroes agreed to there will be the independent Negro body known as theored Methodist Episcopal church in America. the opportunity for influencing future life of the South, as well the North, in the interest of Negro, is to be seen in the that there will be in theited Church 58.052 Sunday schools 553.332 officers and teachers 6,544.753 Sunday-school school 46,825 church, of which there is the Negro in theited Church 55,792 officers and teachers, 227,878 Sunday-school scholars, 3,521 churches.

Reynolds Expected To Remain Pastor Of Trinity Baptist Church The opposition against Rev. Luke J. Reynolds as pastor of Trinity Baptist Church seems to be dying out. Not that the protestants are any less of the opinion that the successor to Rev. Dr. J. P. L. Diggs should be a higher trained man but that the majority of partners of Rev. Reynolds make it useless to fight. The services at the church last Sunday morning were attended by sixteen persons.

"BLACK AND WHITE REVUE" CAST BIG Jimmy Cooper Engages More Colored Players For Mixed Burlesque Show for Columbia Circuit TRIED OUT LAST SEASON Waa Presented In Boston With Whites Playing First Half and Colored Last By. J. A. Jackson Jinnie Cooper the burlesque magnate who last season made the Gonzelle White company the talk of burlesque circles and who last summer installed a two part attraction called the "Black and White Revue" in Boston that became the high spot of the city's theatrical offerings, announced from his New York office that he will open on Columbia Circuit this season with the attraction with even more colored people in it than were on the program there. The revue presented a first act with an entirely white cast and chorus. In the second act twenty Negroes, principals and chorus, were offered. The two types were thus offered on one bill with complete separation of the workers and complete satisfaction to the audience. "Jinnie Cooper's Revue" will be precisely that sort of show, only larger and more elaborate.

Jackson The African Methodist Episcopal churches of Philadelphia, twenty in number are sponsoring a carnival project that is being presented to the public from Aug. 20-25 in that city, billed as the "Grand Lincoln Celebration and Jubilee Festivities". The date was set back from Aug. 6, at the request of the Bishop who is handling the affair for the churches. G. H. Hyman is the promoter who has linked up Church and Carnival. The results have been watched with interest. It seems like a great chance for the colored showmen and concessioners to get in on a big date, as the promoters advertise an attendance of 40,000 daily.

It is the most thrilling love drama of the year! A Jewels and costly gifts were not enough to induce Diana to wed the sheik.

P.)—to "Mr. O-" and left them every month—and was so confidential with his good white friend that he took no receipt. Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 3. (A. N. P.)—There was a man whom we used to hear about every August—the first bale man—whom all the newspapers would praise for bringing in the first bale of cotton for the whole United States each season. He got the prizes. He got into the Associated Press. He got everything except the status of a human being in Georgia. Booker T. Washington carried this man, Deal Jackson was his name, all over the United States, for Booker knew a good thing when he saw it—and Deal served as a fine illustration of what Booker was talking about—sort of "well-to-do" successful "well-to-do" Negro of the South, who had "solved his problem" by getting what the Georgia whites wanted. And Dead Jackson was an ideal Negro for Southern white people. He had confidence in them; he trusted them; he believed them to be his best friends. He trusted Mr. O—the Atlanta banker, more than he trusted his own wife. He told her nothing about his business; he seemed afraid that she and the children were going to know how much he had. He carried all of his money, all of his deeds, all of his contracts, all of his moners Bishop Beckett To Fight Suit Jackson, Miss, Aug. 9. —Unable to effect a compromise with Bishop W. W. Beckett, of the A. M. E. Church, whose home is in Brooklyn, N. Y., but who is in charge of Campbell College here, attorneys of W. H. McGee, president of the college, are going ahead with the $10,000 suit for shamder. President McGee charges Bishop Beckett removing from the presidency of the college around June giving him fifteen days to get off the grounds. In a letter to the State Supervisor of Education, Bishop Beckett is also said to have re- MILITARY OFFICER Major General John L. Jones of the Uniform Rank of Woodmen led the line of march thru the city Thursday afternoon. N. C. PUTS 500,000 IN 86 NEW SCHOOLS Raleigh, N. C. Aug. 9.—Eighty-six new public school buildings and five homes for teachers were erected at a total cost of $452,3947 for the Negroes of the State during the year ending June 30, 1923, according to a survey of work of the Division of Negro Education made public yesterday by N. C. Newbold, director of the division. Private subscriptions made of Private subscriptions made by the Negroes themselves accounted for 17.4 per cent of the total cost of construction and a slightly greater amount was appropriated from the Julius Rosenwalch fund. Public funds provide 15 per cent of the total, and subscriptions from white people 1 per cent of the total invest- ment in buildings. Of the 4,752 colored teachers in the State, 2,405 have standard certificates. In addition to the above, one-half million dollars, the State appropriation, spent for normal school buildings an additional $125,000 was given by the General Education Board. Five new public schools, having four-year course, were placed on the list and Shaw University was given a rating as a Class A college in the State. HEADS PARADE --- And then Deal died. And on his deathbed, he appointed a committee of intelligent colored men to settle up his estate, informing them that Mr. O—had all of his contracts, deeds, and cash "safe" in Mr. O—safe. He had never trusted colored men, of course, and everything was In Mr. O—'s hands, and he only wanted these colored men to do what he could not afford to ask Mr. Q—to do; go and get the stuff and fetch it out to his wife and children after he was buried. The honorable committee went to Mr. O—, and one of them spoke: "Mr. O—, Dead jackson is dead." "Is that so?" replied the white banker. "Well, I'm sorry; he was a good nigger." "And before he died," continued the spokesman, "he asked us as a committee to get his property from you; he said no banker his money, and deeds." The white banker coolly replied: "And Deal's dead, and Deal said that? Well, Deal lied; I haven't a thing that belongs to him. But here ten dollars I will be glad to contribute toward his funeral expenses. He was a good nigger, Good-day." Beckett Suit ferred to President McGee as independent and student to the activities of the school, a poor manager, and a president who was involving the college in obligations it would be impossible to meet. Bishop Beckett claimed that under the leadership of President McGee the standard of the college had become lower from the literary, local and moral standpoint. President McGee in his suit declares the charges of the Bishop are knowingly malicious, defamatory and libelous, broadcasted to prevent him from securing employment in his vocation in the State of Mississippi.

ALIENS ARE OFFERED FARMS IN SOUTH Southern White Farmers Short of Help Advertise Abroad for Foreign Workers ONLY FEW RESPOND ment of Europeans "Free farms for all foreigners in South Carolina" is the advertisement that is being broadcasted over Europe in order to draw migration of white farmers to that section. Hit by the boll weevil and the Northward migration of Negro workers at the same time, Southern landowners are taking desperate steps to recruit their supply of workers and cultivate the weed-grown tenant farms formerly rented to Negroes. So far few allens have taken advantage of this free land offer largely because many of the European workers who come to America for the first time find better wages in the industrial sector, and also be hot climate of the South is not the most attractive for those injured to the cold weather of Northern Europe. The beginning of August the last summer month has not brought about any diminution of the Northward moving trainloads of Southern Norroes according to T. J. Entzwinger, Sr. builder and constructor of Columbia, who passed away this city in a motor crash stopped at the N. C. A. Thursday. Every Northward brings more, he declared. Accompanying Mr. Entzwinger, were his son, Maco, T. E. M. Lewis, electrician, James Watson and Slim Miller, carpenters. Mr. Lewis is the grand lecturer for the Knights of Bydlius of South Carolina. The army reported bad stretches of mud in their 24 hour trip from South Carolina and Mr. J. Entzwinger dledelphia where they had contracted a work which they had contracted the cost of the year.

Dr. W. A. Plecker, white, head of the State Bureau of Vital Statistics, admits that the races are becoming rapidly mixed here and issued the following statement: "There are several communities in Virginia which have perplexed us greatly. One of these is in the southern end of Halifax county, extending over into North Carolina. Around Virginia is a tribe of people of mixed descent that gave us known to classify. They are swarthy in appearance, resembling closely neither the white nor the colored race." "We were compelled to settle the question us to whether these people were white or black. They would not associate with Negroes and were not accepted by the whites. They were numerous enough to have a school of their own. Their pastor, a Baptist minister residing in North Carolina, states that they are "Croat Indians." An old citizen of the community gives another origin to them, dating back to the Civil War, who have compromised them the term 'Indian' and admit them thus to record. FOUND IN OTHER COUNTIES "In Armherb and Bedford counties is another community of the same kind, possibly of the same origin. One of these families of ten children, eight living, have some recorded as white and some as colored, depending upon the view of those who report. They are now obligating to the colored birth cards which my office sends out to mothers of children whose births are reported. The man who is listed as a colored voter and whose children are included in the colored school population is recorded in my office with his life in the list of white marriages. BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK "Illegitimate births probably furnish the largest number of mutuities, though not yet determined as the father's name is not demanded. We do, however, endeavor to secure a statement of his order." Another angle from the problem, it is learned, grows out of the fact that very fair colored children are attending the most exclusive white schools in the city and are graduating there from with high honors, having been taught fine drawing and art, always closed to colored people have been attended by these white colored people who graduate with high honors.

Local Woman and Man Are Fleeced Out of $285 By the Old Pocketbook Game Alleged Crook Returns To See Newly-Born Son and Is Arrested Flim-flammers paid Baltimore a visit last week and as a result a man and a woman have gained some valuable experience, but lost $235. On July 28th, a neatly dressed young man with a fast-talking and smooth voice met Miss Eva Speaks on Light street, and after a short conversation the pair noticed a man drop a pocketbook. The smooth-talking young man picked it up, and it ended in the same old story. Miss Speaks was persuaded to go to the Calvert Bank and draw out $200 and turn it over to the young man on the promise that the $1,000 found in the pocketbook would be divided. That was the last she saw of him. Miss Speaks stated that she just did not know how the man gained her confidence so quickly, but it seemed that he used some supernatural power. Sometimes later Detectives Dunn Porter and Murphy arrested Henry Ricks, who was identified as the smooth young man. Ricks, it was stated, has a record for flim-flamming from coast to coast. Isaac Howard, 921 McCullah St. was flim-flammed the same way as he waited for a train at the Union Station. He lost $5 in the same old pocketbook game. Simultaneously William Sawyer, an alleged crook whose description tallied with that given by Howard, left the city. This week when he became the father of a son, the temptation to see the baby became so strong that he returned and was trapped by detectives at his home at 204 Lewis street. He has been identified by Howard and with Ricks is being held for the action of the Grand Jury charged with the robbery. "Y" Announces New Physical Secretary Executive Secretary S. S. Booker announced today the appointment of Mr. C. Rhoades, assistant physician secretary of the New York "Y" as physical secretary of the local branch.

Tibbs, charged with a number of embebzements while connected with a Christmas savings club and insurance company sometime ago, was postponed in Part 2 of the Criminal Court Wednesday. Mrs. Josephine Tibbs, wife of the accused, was present in the court room, having herself preferred a charge of non-support against her husband. Because of a lack of certain papers claimed to be in possession of Mrs. Tibbs and wanted by counsel for the defense, the trial was reset for Wednesday of next week. Through and error, it was stated in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN that the public summer schools would close last Friday. They will not close until THE AFRO-AMERICAN First For high shools from 50 to 150 square feet of playground are needed per pupil. The new colored high school will have not more than 19 to 14 square feet per pupil.

Later John Stugmansky, white, arrested by Officer Kiefer, was identified as the man who did the robbing. He is being held. 27 YOUNGSTERS OFF TO 10 DAYS CAMP Steamer Starlight Takes Firs Group of Y.

The youngsters, many of whom are enjoying their first experience camping out, came down on the Steamer Starlight. Each one was laden with the necessary equipment which included a bathing suit and a combination aluminium plate and pan in which he will cook and eat his meals. Some thirty cots are arranged in a big canvas tent and here the boys are to make their home for the next days. Assisting Mr. Smith, who is Camp Director, are Chus, Pinderhuges, director of activity, Gordon Widgeon, director of camp tactics, and L. E. Griffin, in charge of the commissary. Each boy is paying $5 for his stay in camp, which detracts a part of its cost. Captain Brown is offering the site tree and the re-mainder of the detach will be made up in other ways. Three times this number of boys could have been brought on this outing provided they had been sufficient accommodations for them. Boys registered include: Carlton Prescoe, Howard Lee, Lesse Railey, Ralph H. Herndon, Randolph C. Hinton, Eyreett Sounders, Eugene West, Roland Henson, Donald S. Young, Charence Williams, Walter G.

Ft., Says Chief Engineer Perring BUILDING IS UNDER WAY Contractor Must Have Million Dollar Plant Ready by August,1924 Due to its location and the high price of surrounding real estate the new high school will not have sufficient playground space according to City Engineer Perring. Mr. Perring's statements concerning the playground space and the Colored High School were made recently before the conference of city planners held in the city. In part they are as follows: "A Colored High School, is a rather startling thing South of the Mason and Dixon line. The building has cost about $1,500,000 altogether and will house a colored school population of about 2,000. It is in a downtown section and we have violated a standard for playground space, in that we probably will have not more than 10 or 15 feet per pupil. "In another downtown school where the site alone cost $150,000 we could not have a great deal of playground space, but have provided a place to play on the roof." "Another interesting feature about this building is the fact that it is located in a district which has been zoned as second commercial. In course of time residential population will be forced out of the district and we have designed the building so that although it serves admirably today as a school it can be easily converted into a manufacturing building. "In the Northwest section of the city we have a junior high school that we are really proud of, housing a school population of 2,000 on a 12-acre site. "There is ample room for all kinds of school games, and every other form of play healthy youngsters should have." ```markdown ``` is worth $5.00 a bottle The Turlington Chemical Co., Ballimore, Md.

Voted For Coolidge Jerry Hawkins And Warner McGuinn Among Those To Cast Ballots On the ballot at Chicago in 1920 that place Calvin Coolidge on the Republican ticket as Harding's running mate two colored Marylanders cast their votes. One was Warner T. McGuinn, who was delegate from the Fourth District, and the other was Jeremiah Hawkins of Brentwood, who represented the Fifth District. The vote was an unanimous one, all of the sixteen votes from this State going to Coolidge. SCIENTIST WIDGEON IS 73 YEARS OLD SCIENTIST WIDGEON IS 73 YEARS OLD Says He Expects To Be Useful Many More Years At his home in Fairfield, John W. Widgeon, the aged caretaker of the Maryland Academy of Sciences, is enjoying a month's vacation. "I was 73 years of age the other day," he told a reporter of the Arno-American, "but feel like there are many more years of activity before me. It is true that I have not been on expeditions to get specimens for the academy for the past several years, but I am keeping up my interest in things scientific." He is regarded as an expert on the flora and fauna of Maryland and has gathered much of the material that the academy now possesses. He also went to the West Indies, gathered coral reef and mounted it just like it appears at the academy. He is a chemist and taxidermist. CORBIN JOKED TOO MUCH. SAYS BROTHER So Telegram To Salme, Va. Brought No Help In Time of Need AFRO'S AID ASKED This Newspaper Called In To Find Out If Corbin Is Ill In Aesop's Fables is a story of the Shepherd who in a joking way called for help so often that when he was in actual need of it and called aloud for aid, none of his neighbors believed he needed assistance. Quite similar is the case of Walter Corbin, an employment agent, 1339 W. Lafayette avenue. For sometime Walter was seriously ill at his home and sent his brother, Howard Corbin, of Salem, Va., a telegram asking him to come to his assistance. Did Howard come to Baltimore? He did not. Instead he sent to the AFRO-America the following telegram: "Editor, Afro: Kindly inform me whether my brother, Walter Corbin, 1330 W. Lafayette street, is ill or not, as he jokes so much. Save expense." A reporter of the Afro-AMERICAN who went to the home of Walter Corbin on Lafayette avenue was informed by a young woman, presumably Mrs. Walter Corbin, that he had been ill, but was now out. Later Mr. Corbin called up the Afro office wishing to know why his brother had not telegraphed him?

Mayfield Boyle, 425 Caroline street, on Monday announced that his niece, Miss Edna Elliott, age 17, of Freetown Sierra, Leone, West Africa, is being detained at London by the American Consul, who refuses to vise her passport enabling her to sail for New York. Miss Elliott is en route to Baltimore and the home of her niece with the hope of completing her high school and college education in this country. Dr. Boyle, who immediately got in touch with the local authorities, found out that the quota of African immigrants was filled for this month and for this reason Miss Elliott is being detained in London. Through Phil H. Brown, commissioner of conciliation, and other authorities in Washington, Dr. Boyle then took up the case with the hope of getting Miss Elliott released in time to begin her school work in September. --- Call VErnon 6016 500 ON EXCURSION 500 ON EXCURSION Over five hundred persons went on the excursion to Brown's Grove A concert was rendered on the Sunday given by the Jack Thomas Band, A Jack Thomas, director, grounds.

REAL ESTATE COMPANY BILL AVENUE Samuel E. Robinson, Secy. nt, Treasurer LOOKING HEADS BALTIMORE, MD. APTER IN THIS SECTION Local News, News of Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania and the South National Guard Leaves Vacancies In Many Fields To Be Filled By United States Civil Service OPEN TO COLORED All Government Positions Open to All Citizens Under Civil Service Law There are literally hundreds of vacancies in local and field departments of the U. S. Government that must be filled as a result of examinations to be held in August and September according to announcements. While in the past colored applicants have only taken examinations for clerical positions all of the positions listed under civil service are open to them and could be obtained if they would make themselves eligible and used a little push. This applies to the many technical positions and apprenticeships in various scientific lines as well as the more common positions. In fact the constant changes occurring because of promotions and vacancies brought about by those leaving the service for high salaried positions which their experience with the Government have fitted them, causes a constant demand for applicants, and there is no doubt but that many youths coming from our technical and industrial schools could pass the tests if they applied. Some Coming Exams. Besides an examination for clerks in the various departments to be held Aug. 18, there are a number of other positions requiring more specific training, many of which pay high salaries. An examination for Assistant in Marketing Specialist carrying a salary from $1620 to $2400 held August 5th. There is another if September. A Junior Aid and Laboratory Apprentice requiring an equivalent of high school physics for the Bureau for this will be held August 18. By promotion the salary may develop from $540 to $3,000 per year. This position offers an opportunity for developing into an expert in many lines. Other examinations to be held August 15th or early in September are: Assistant Animal Keeper High School and Primary Teachers for the Philippine and Indian Service, Teachers in Home Economics for field work through the country, Junior Assistant in Industrial School, High School and women, Architectural Draftsman and Photo Engravers for departments in Washington and other cities. Vacancies In Veteran's Bureau There are many vacancies to be filled in the Veteran's Bureau. Reconstruction Aids and Assistants in Physio-Therapy and Occupational Therapy tests will be held throughout the country. These high sounding words really refer to physical trainers and instructors in vocations used to rehabilitate disabled veterans. An Assistant Hospital Librarian is also needed. In the Department of Internal Revenue many Special Agents are wanted for which tests will be required. Special covered men are already employed by this department and any one may become eligible with proper qualifications. Special Agents are paid from $2,250 to $3,000 per year.

Church in South Carolina, has this one believe I go to Heaven easier and better from the South, for there is less vice in the South into which Negroes can engage. It is true and no one can deny it, that most of our people who go North fall into miserable dens and haunts of vice and forsake the Church entirely." I almost agree with the confused Bishop in some of the details of his remarks and in others I am forced to disagree. Insofar as getting to Heaven is concerned, I am not in a position to state whether the Prelate can get to Heaven from the North or the South. God only knows about this. Being a bishop is not necessarily a passport to the etheral regions. I can vouch for that as Bishop Chappelle will find out how he receives his destination. If Bishop Chappelle makes a calculation before leaving these parts and does not have his sins washed away, he will find many bishops working as coal passers. On the other hand, if the Bishop stops putting out lies like the above one attributed to him and gets his house in order he may finally sit near the throne of grace, where he will also find many bishops priests and deacons. In making the statement the Bishop confuses me by saying, "I believe I can get to Heaven easier and better from the South." If he means he can leave "the" easier and better from the "South," then we both believe the same thing. The world knows they can start you on that last journey in the South with more facility than they can in any other section. Either with fire, rope, the shot-gun or dozens of other ways invented by the blood-thirsty "crackers." In the twinkling of an eye they will help and assist you to leave these parts. The Bishop seems to be thoroughly convinced of this fact, but is misleading in his statement of the destination. If he if the good Bishop we pick himself out most any insignificant white man in South Carolina and call him a liar, he can easily prove to the rest of the people who don't believe his statement, with what dispatch they can send you to the "Happy Hunting Ground" in the South. Bishop Turner Is Needed The A. M. E. Church is the greatest organization among Negroes in the world. It is a smooth well-oiled piece of machinery. It has produced great men and women and its organization and administration is almost perfect. It has been a source of strength and comfort to the "dark meat" upon this continent and has eminent men who have stood out for the right in any place, anywhere, and at any time. The late Bishop Turner of Georgia, was a shining example of the Christian courage and tenacity contained in this great institution. When Bishop Turner had anything to say along racial lines, that would not tickle the ears of the white South, he did not come to New York or Boston to make his statement. Right in Georgia, the "hot bed" of everything wrong, he would belch up his remarks and did not care who heard them. It was he who would deny any false allegations made against the race and it was he who would defy the alleger. If Bishop Turner were living now I would call his attention to a remark recently passed by one of the A. M. E. ministers a man even below the calibre of Bishop Chappelle of South Carolina. The Rev. J. J. Morant, of Vicksburg, Miss., says, "I am telling the Negroes to stay in the South and call Negro "raplers," but think they should be caught- unmanned and burned, after being condemned." Can you imagine this coming from a minister of the Gospel? He does not want the law to take his course he would rather see the culprit un-manned and burned. There is only one thing for the A. M. E. Church to do in this case that Bible out of this brother's hand and give him a swift kick. It looks to me as if Bishop Hurst or Dr. A. L. Gaines or some of the big men in the Church should pwrises on J. J. Morant of Vicksburg, Miss. "The Empty House Blues" How about the Douglass Theatre proposition?

Considerable time was taken in untangling the domestic affairs of Paul Polosychsi, white, Mrs. Polosychsi, Mrs. Helen Woods and Joseph Matthews in the Sunday morning session at the Northwestern Police Station. The Polosychsi's and Mrs. Helen Woods live in the same house at 1702 Moster street and they court Matthews were hated into court following a message in which charges of having concealed weapons disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace were made.

Political leaders in the Fourth District are still hoping to find candidates to run for the legislature. Registration in this district, it is said, entitles the race to three or four men on the ticket. With the primaries about five weeks off, no colored candidate for the Legislature has appeared. Warner T. McGuinn has been mentioned but has not filed as yet. The declination of Dr. Wm. H. Wright to run in response to a petition of men and women removed what is generally regarded as a good candidate. "Farce" has been lying low and saying nothing. "I am looking the situation over," is his only comment. Dr. James A. White has been urged to enter the lists, but is fighting shy of the suggestion.

Before Christopher Columbus PROVESTHAT AFRICANS FIRST FOUND AMERICA Theory That Christopher Columbus was First Man From Old World Here Shown to Be a Myth WEINER'S NEW BOOK Second Volumn of Series Just Published, Still a Third One to Come BAY MARY WHITE, INSTITUTION Chairman, Board of Directors, N. A. C. Abbott, Africa and the Discovery of America" Volume 2. By Lee Wiener, Published by Messrs. James & Company, Philadelphia, Pa. Price $5.99 postpaid. This is the second part of a work to be completed in three volumes. Its thesis is a new one; that Negroes from Africa visited America before Columbus and left their mark here. This second volume concerns with each chapter the African civilization as seen in the introduction of cotton, tobacco and shell money. I wish that I might be able clearly to understand Wiener's argument, but this is impossible because this very learned scholar cannot present it clearly himself. His book is for experts who can disentangle salient from a mass of evidence, a mass that shows a learning prological in its Leo Wiener is professor of Stavic Languages at Harvard University, and in his first volume, he related his discovery of African influence in the language of the Portuguese grammar of American languages, he came upon a number of words that study told him were corruptions or adaptations of words used by the Negroes in Africa especially by the Mundingues. He told me that especially of material signs of African influence, there can be little doubt that in some things African influence was exerted before Columbus. Probably the Mundingues first reached America in the mid-16th century, the Portuguese explorers. The Mundingues were a sturdy rite, and if we look on the map we can see that the trip from Western Africa to Northern South America was not an impossible one, though a courage to take in a rance. I remember seeing in Norway the open boat, a large dory, in which the Norseman is reputed to have made his early discovery of North America. At least the African came over milder water. That they did, come Professor Wiener does not doubt. He shows us, among other things, two pictures, one of an African, another of an Indian. This is indeed an extraordinary similarity between the two. One is reminded of the interesting chapters in *Brown* and *Grawal* concerning the close Association of Negro and Indian in this country. Wiener has a great deal to say about tobacco, relating the story of Nicotine from the sixteenth century. It was brought by the Arabs to the Negroes and they in turn brought it to the Indians, "possibly a century before American society," and it was used only by the priests in their rites. In the wampum with which the Indians first traded with the Americans we again see an African origin. The Indians were puffed with cinnamon bride at this precedence we would note that Proof. Wiener finds that he got his civilization from the Arabs, those marvelous folk who have been consistently maligned by the Christians through the centuries. I have spoken of the learning evinced in this book. I counted in the world index references to 12 European and 33 African languages, to 13 American and 23 African dialects, and then stopped, not through, only tired. One of my friends, who is a historian, tells me, that it is dangerous to base historical research on seeming similarity of language and that Wiener is looked upon as somewhat hasty in so doing. He answers this criticism in his preface where he speaks of archaeologists who "insist upon denying all but the archaeological evidence and shower upon an objective investigator a veritable deluge of abuse. We are sympathetic with the "objective investigator and trust that the Mandingoes did bring good things to this continent, when they came here of their own free will." When the evidence is more complete it will be an interesting story for colored children, that of these brave black sailors who dared to cross the Atlantic and who carried thither cotton and tobacco that their descendants, later unwillingly dragged here, were to plow and reap.

Joseph P. Evans in March, 1922, bought a ticket in Charleston, W. Va., for Cincinnati. Boarding a C. & O. train, he rode in a regular passenger coach with whites until the train reached the city, where he was asked to move forward into another coach that was divided, half and half, between baggage and Negroes. Evans refused, saying he knew of the law or rule requiring him to move. The conductor informed him the road had a rule, though it was secret and unpublished, requiring the segregation of Negroes from trains travelling through Kentucky. Evans still refused and later was taken into custody by a railroad policeman remanded from the court before the following day. The court uphold Evans, declaring he had committed no offense. Evans thereafter pleaded guilty to misuse of the Interstate Commerce Commission for refund of $5.52 fare he had paid, and brought before the commission the whole question of the misuse of the segregation of passengers by color without the authority of law. Hearings have been held before the commission in which Evans was charged with a serious evidence in their own self. Evans was represented by an array of Negro counsel. His attorneys contended that the road's rule was not violated, and never been filled with the commission, which has decreed that all railroad rules must be in his files, approved by it, before they are Additional arguments presented in a brief just filed with the commission by Evans' attorneys, subsequent to the hearings, contend that the rule is unreasonable, the rule is unreasonable, preventing it forever from being valid. Without apparent reason, Evans' attorneys contend, the rule is enforced only in Virginia and Maryland and not in West Virginia or Ohio. Say Rule Is Unfair The brief further states that insular as accommodations provided for Negroes are unequal to those for whites, such a rule is unfair. Evans contends that where whites are permitted whole cars, Negroes are permitted only half or quarter accommodations and not be cramped in half-and-half cars. It is regarded as extremely probable that the commission, as a result of the Evans' proceeding, will formulate a program for "Jim" Negroes to be admitted to the course of roads required or desired to cut them into effect.

THE BETTER SOUTH SPEAKS Greensboro News: "Few events of recent years have been more disrespectful to the threats of lawlessness at Tuskegee Ala. no account of the appointment of Negro medical officers at the Negro rehabilitation hospital erected there by the Government. "If the hospital were for white veterans, or if it were proposed to put white employees under the compulsion to work together different. But the place has been built and maintained for Negro soldiers at a great Negro hospital in the world why it should interfere in any way with white people; and consequently there is no reason in the world why white people should interfere with it. "The only possible explanation of the protest is a discreditable one, when the protesting are opposed to the knowledge and skill of Negro doctors. It is not reported that the veterans, the men who are protesting, are in violation. The protest has been made by whites and by whites alone. "Is this a true reflection of the spirit of the South? Are we determined to bar the Negro out of the learned professions, even when he has no idea of attempting to practice law or to race? Are we going to deny to a man on account of the color of his skin opportunity to make the best of the talents God has given him? If so, then the worst that our enemies have ever said of us is: if we take that attitude, then we are proved guilty of harboring a desire to resort to the worst features of human slavery. * * * * * "The Daily News cannot believe that. But if it is not true, then the attempt to use the "fucking" hospital should be repudiated vigorously by Southern public opinion. Doubless the attempt will be fruitless. The Government cannot conceivably yield to the attempt of its own good name, the attempt should be hotly denied by the South. "The attempt in itself will do no great harm, for the world understands perfectly that the South, like every other section, has its due proportion of mercury and always he controlled by the decent and intelligent element. The danger is that the country may believe that this outrage is supported by the better element, at least in the sense of such impression that the South should condemn the outbreak unsparingly."

He can result from 'his butting to God that none of the brie shores of our country. The 'nigger,' " he had said quail gaged in wiping out the war DIXON had had occasion to go into the room several times. On one occasion he had heard this man say vehemently "The 'nigger' is a menace to our civilization and should be kept down. I am opposed to educating him, for the educated 'nigger' is a misfit in the white man's civilization. He is a caricature and no good can result from 'his butting in' on our affairs. Would to God that none of the breed had ever set foot on the shores of our country. That's the proper place for a 'nigger,'" he had said quite aloud, on seeing Dixon engaged in wiping out the wash bowls. At another time he had heard the same speaker deliver himself of this opinion: "You may say what you please, but I would never eat with a nigger." I couldn't stomach it. God has placed an insuperable barrier between them and the people they present them from living on the same social plane, at most so far as the Anglo-Saxon is concerned. I have no hatred for the black man—in fact, I could have none, but he must stay in his "That's nothing else but racial antipathy," his opponent had objected. You don't have to take my word, it said the other, snappily. "Didn't Abraham Lincoln say: 'There is a physical difference between the white and black races which, I believe will forbid the two races living together in political equality.' Call it what you will, but there is a indefinable something within me that tells me I am infinitely better than the best "nigger" but coward. The word "nigger" has value and we can go to violate nature." Upon hearing this remark, Dixon had thought as follows: "My good man, how easily I could define that 'indefinable feeling' from your positive manner, and impatience of contradiction that you experience that indefinable feeling not only toward Negroes, but your white associates as well, and that you would also could call in any one else "conesth." Dixon had happened to be present at the close of the discussion, which had been brought to an end by the announcement that he had been a rather heated one and had closed with this retort by the Anti-Negro Passenger: You, too, had slavery in the North, but it didn't pay and you gave it up. Wasn't your pedicau and self-righteous Massachusetts the first to legalize slavery? You Northeners forced slavery on us, and when you could not, it became England had stopped slave trade, you EASTON, MD. EASTON, MD.

Climes reversed, it would have been the South that wanted abol- ition. It was a matter of business with you, not sentiment. You Northerners, who had interest in slavery, were bitterly opposed to abolition. It is all very well for you to talk, but if you Yankees had the same percentage of migrants from different time. The bitterest people against the "migrant" are you Northerners who have come South. You, too, have race riots, lynching and segregation. The only difference between South and North was the lack of hypersensitive," and he added with vehement sincerity, "I hate hypersisy." In spite of this anewed cemetery toward his people, Dixon had felt alienated and thought, was a conscience, honest but uneducated. Shelly afterward an occupant of the smoker, who had been puffing a huge caballus with Indian stolality, met Dixon in the passageway and asked if he was terrible, but good-natured outh, he said, "That fellow is obsessed by the race problem. I met him yesterday at the hotel, and he has taken of hardly anything else of his own.

Rogers Dixon felt like saying, "We must be patient with the self-deluded," but he did not. He had simply thanked the stranger for his kind sentiments, then turned and walked away. Of this run through the porter's mind when he saw the pajama-clad passenger appear in the doorway. The newconfer, on an evening when he looked at himself quizzically for a moment, then selected a chair and adjusting it to suit his fancy made himself comfortable in the worn-wool gold cigarette case from his pocket, selected a cigarette, and after tapping it on the chair, began rummaging his pockets for a match, all in apparent objection to the porter's presence of the long-cushioned seat. But Dixon had been quietly observing him and definitely presently venturing to inquire in a reed a lighted match, at the same time and rather solicitous tone. Could "No, George," came the reply in an amable and condescending tone, "I was awakened at the last moment, and never do very well the first night, anyway." With this the passenger began to talk to Dixon quite freely, tell him about his home, and then home. They soon began to talk about more personal matters. Into this part of the conversation the passenger injected phrases such as "darkest of the night," and this the senator began to tell jokes about chicken-stealing, razor-rights and watermelon feasts. Of such jokes he evidently had an interest in, he was an anecdote of a Nogre head waiter in a Northern hotel, who when asked by a Southern guest if he were the head "nigger" in the hotel, but upon the visitor's informing him that it was his custom to give a large tip to the "head nigger," this head waiter, so the story goes, sub.

Dixon saw the in the other's eye the value of While the passenger was still laughing the train began to slow down, and Dixon, asking to be excused, sided to the other end and opened the book he had placed behind him. The passenger saw the volume and his humor was instantly changed to curiosity. The book stood end up on the seat and he could discern from his size and blinding vision that he was serious thought ume that might contain serious thought. He had somehow felt that this Negro was above the ordinary and the sight of the book now conformed the feeling of a faint, timeless tide of Dixon's laughter, as also a merry twinkle in his eye had made him feel at times just a bit uncomfortable, and now he wanted to verify this suspicion. His curiosity of the better of both, he reached over to the volume, but at the same instant Dixon's slipping back to his former seat caused him to hesitate. Yet he determined to find out. He demanded flippantly, pointing to the book "reading the Bible, George?" "What, then." "Oh, only a scientific work," said the other earnestly not wishing to broach the subject of racial differences that the title of the book gested. Dixon's very evident desire to evade a direct answer seemed to sharpen the other's ambition. He suggested bodily but with ill-timed engerness, "Pretty deep stuff, eh?" Then in the same manner he inquired, "Who's the author?"

Baltimore, Md. Never Closed Dixon saw the persistent curiosity in the other's eye. Knowing too well the nature of the man before him, he did not want to give him the book but being unable to find any pretext for further withholding it, he took it from the seat, and turned it right side up, and handed it to the Senator. He felt better difference. Moistening his forefinger, he began turning over the leaves, then settled down to read the marked passages. Now and then he would mutter: "Nonsense! Ridiculous! Suddenly in a best impulse from frontside, then enclosed in openist: 'Just as I thought Written by a Frenchman.' Then before he could recollect to whom he was talking—so full was he of what he regarded the absurdity of Pimut's view he demanded: 'Do you believe about the equality of the races?' New Dixon's policy was to avoid any topic that would be likely to produce a difference of opinion with a passenger, provided that the avoidance did not entail any sacrifice of self-respect. In this instance he regarded himself rather than vested for just then the following remark made by this legislator that afternoon, recurred to him. "The Jew, the Frenchman, the Dugo and the Spaniards are all niggers to a greater or less extent. The only white people are the Anglo-Saxons, Teutons and Scandinavians." This, Dixon surmised had accounted for the remark the other host had made, and it amused him. As Dixon pondered the question there occurred to him a way by which he could retain his own opinion while in apparent accord with the passenger. He responded accordingly: "No sir, I do not believe in the equality of the races. As you say it is impossible." *(Do you Continued Next Week)* her home last week at Hall's Hill $14.

From the country, "If you please?" asked the officer. "For you the court of Heaven, sir," replied the stranger, looking very grave and pointing upwards. "This government holds no intercourse with that power at present," was the answer. The stranger bowed and retired.—Percy Offer, 1529 E.

Clean Hair In Summer "Watch out for June, July and August! Of the 12 months of the year these three are hardest on the hair," says Jesse Ogilive, hair specialist. "The wind, sun and water, to say nothing of the dust and dirt, are so injurious to the scalp that the fall of the year is likely also to mean the fall of the hair. "Get over the idea that your hair brush is a dressing-table accessory, when you are not using it, keep it in a drawer, hidden from dust, and keep it clean by frequent washings." BRUSH DAILY "And let the daily brushings become a part of your beauty routine. "As your brush, use an upward movement, which loosens the scalp and stimulates the circulation. See that at least half of your strokes really get to the scalp. "Two or three times a week give yourself a treatment with some good tonic suited to your scalp.

Here is her method: "Begin at the tape of the neck, press your thumbs well into the structure at the base of the skull and work carefully around the neck to the ears. The scalp should be fitted and pressed and knotted in circular sweeps of the longer tips and palms until a pale pink hue assumes the restoration of lively cir SHAMPOO SELDOM "Don't shampoo your hair too often, for if you have a tendency toward oily hair this will only aggravate the condition. Do not try to remove the oil in your hair or dry shampoo the oil clog the pores and cause it worse. mute After motoring or being exposed to dust, brush your hair carefully and remove as much dust as you can with a soft linen towel. "The hair requires much more care in summer than in winter. But if cared for in summer it is bound to thrive and have nothing to do but grow and become luxurious during the cooler seasons."

The next week when Mrs. Able returned, I told her of the escaping gas, and asked her how she got the gas, and asked her how she got the "Oh." she explained turning them on.

Paimer'S R PREPARATIONS Black Sox Trim Bacharach Giants in both---Sunday and Monday Games ALWAYS MAKES A HIT Smoke A Cigar of Value CITY·CLUB CIGARS 8 1/2 STRAIGHT SOMEWHERE SOLD EVERYWHERE Carter Hurls Fine Game As Team Mates Hammer Henderson From Hill and Win, 8-2 JINX STILL AFTER SYKES Spitballist Is Chased In Curtain Tilt Before Rain Ends It In Second Inning The Black Sox again demonstrated their return to form last Sunday by taking the Bacharach Giants into camp in the opening tilt 8-2, before 3500 fans. Carter was sent to the dishpan for the locals with Clarke receiving, and he had the Seasiders standing on their side for the most part, when they came to the plate. They collected a total of nine hits off him but they were kept so scattered that they were as harmless as a game of croquet. In addition, he was given fine support by his teammates with the exception of Ford and Wilson, the former making two miscues and the latter, one. These however, were not costly, and had Carter not walked Lundy in the fourth who scored on White's single, and Clarke had not made a bad peg to catch Lockhart off second-bane, the latter going to third and scoring on Cummings' single, he would have had a shutout. Henderson whom the Sox had been so kind to a few Sundays previous as to practically give him the game was again sent to the hill in the first game Manager Jackson bobbed the ball in a passion that the lamp of love the Sox had for him was still trimmed and burning. But alas! he was mistaken. The Sox showed that they had turned traitor by hammering him for four hits and four runs in the very first inning. In the second after two more hits, a free ticket and two runs, Mr. Henderson was hoisted from the pan and Lockhart sent a rampage. A single by Smith scored Wilson before the side, was retired. Lockhart was master of the situation the balance of the way, for although he was found for five hits afterward he kept them so scattered that they netted only one more run, and besides, he turned seven back by the strikeforce route. Wilson was the batting star, hitting safely four times out of four trips, one of which was a double. In addition feature was a hot double-play in the first inning when Carter caged Cummings' foul bunt and doubled Downs off first base. RAIN ENDS DEWFALL The second game was ended by rain in the second inning. Sykes had been held back for this game doubtless in the belief that old man finx who has been on his trail continually, would think he wasn't going to work, and thus would go elsewhere. But finx was right on the job as usual, and after the teeth doctor had turned back the visitors in the first inning scoreless, he was lifted in the second after walking three men, yielding two hits and making a wild peg to first, all of which toil. Mitchell took up the burden at this point just as the rain brought hostilities to a close. Harper and Stone were the visiting battery of this session. FIRST GAME BY INNINGS BACTARACH-Downs, walked.

London, Eng., Aug. 9—West Indian cricket team, composed of Nogro and white natives of the Caribean islands, has been touring England for the past few months. Sports Through Jim Watson's Eyes Since Harry Harristone has been back with the Black Sox, the team is picking up. They won one game and tied another Sunday, although the umpire called the second game when there was plenty of light to play. Jupe Pluvius has agreed hereafter only to allow one game on Sundays. Monday again the Bacharachs fell before the shoots of Mahoney. Carter, tho, was the cat's pajamas Sunday, and the Bacharachs could not see his curves at all. Since the jinx has been after Dr. Sykes, it may be that Carter is to prove the real elevator to lift the Sox out of the last division. Incidentally, Dr. Sykes got his again when he tried to pitch the second game. A barrage of hits drove him to the showers. The other stars of Sunday's game were "Babe" Wilson, the mighty home run hitter, and "Blue Streak" Kemp, the fast outfielder. Wilson got a hit every time he came to the bat, and Kempie pulled off his famous stunt of scoring from second base on a single to right field. There is many a fast runner in the League, not barring Miller and Raggs, but when Kemp set sails for home, there is not much left for the fielders to do, but watch his dust.

Lincoln Giants Playing Better Ball Honestly out of the race for first honors the tail end Lincoln Giants have shown a reversal of form and are now playing the brand of ball that is expected of them they have been bowling alone at a clip well over the fifty per cent mark since they have come out of the rut the early part of July. Several of the top clubs will have reckoned with his Keeps. The results will probably figure strongly in the penultimate chase. After an extended layoff from league dates Nate Strong's 'Royal Giants made another swing around the circuit and bettered their standing in the league column by climbing over the fast slipping Baltimore Sox. The Royals with practically the same club intact are a little better off than early in the season because of the fact that a player whose temples have mended, the pitching staff, however, is not producing the assortment of benders that are necessary to turn back the opposition, a very important detail in the national pastime.

Brown Philadelphia, Aug. 2.—For the second time in ten years of tournament play, Talley Holmes was unable to reach the finals at the Pennsylvania State Open Championships on the Germantown Courts at the Y. W. C. A. This time it was young Saitch, a hard-hitting, skillful netman of the Vincent Kidnapp type, who took the one invincible memorable victory of Jorge of Jamaica in 1920 over Tally Holmes been able to come from behind and beat this old master of a hundred final rounds. But with all his camming and generalship he could not stop the onshoot of chops, drives, smashes and aces that completely dazzled the gallery as well as the former champion. In the words of his conqueror, I fought for the first time in my life, not intend to be beaten. And, believe me. I finished the New York champion and continued tight, for no one can beat Talley Holmes easily. In the first set, Smith was outclassed 6-4, and the second was a repetition of the first, until Talley led 5-2 set point. Then Smith started fighting and Talley started running. Talley, a six-second pace, in going after a set point, hitting the earth so hard, he nearly destroyed his trousers. Many felt that this was the turning point in the match as Smith finally won the second set 9-7. In the third set, Talley again led 3-9, when Smith started to "light", and shortly he won the final set 6-4, and carried his team to the finals and establish the youth of the band in their rightful place (1) am writing this Saturday morning only a few hours before we meet in the finals. I expect a hard match but I am going to try to keep the youngster from getting started just as the fierce playoff between Washington, Junior National champion, in the other semi-final round 6-3, 6-4.) Among the Philadelphiaphians this year who have made great strides in perfecting the driving game, I was most impressed with Willamora, the Filipino, who will give the topperheads a real battle by 1924. Washington will be led by Allen and a host of youngsters will some day give Philly a real place in the tennis game. Dr. Howard and Mr. Smith put the tournament over in great fashion. Among the women Miss Thomas and Mrs. Junior will have to learn how to drive if they expect to have young sixteen-year-old Philadelphia and State Champion, Miss Lula Eubank of Germantown. I expect Smith, my doubles partner, to be a big factor in our final match with Talley Holmes and Ted Thompson. On paper we ought to win. Next week in New York most of the topperheads and their players will be crowned and a number of upsets and war ratings should result. In New York Tuesday, John Wilkerson and myself will play off the Eastern singles finals postponed last week in Baltimore. Ted Thompson and John Wilkerson of Washington will enter Nations in Chicago. H. H. Wright, M. Wright, and their charming daughter will be in Dr. H. S. McCord's party of Mrs. McCord and daughter of Baltimore. They plan driving through, stopping for a day at Indianapolis tournament. Dr. B. M. Rhetta and Mrs. Rhetta, Prof. Cook, Dr. McLaea and Miss Nicholson will also enter from Baltimore in the Chicago tournament. Smith, Smith, Jones, Bain, Mrs. Wade, Mice Crawford, Miss Leonard and a number of other prominent New Yorkers will arrive in Chicago next week. Dr. Costa, of Waterbury, Conn.; Dr. Griff and Dr. Downing of Bonneville, Va. will motor over to Annapolis" Smith and Mrs. Alston will袋袋 the nation's naval metropolis. Dr. McCard, president of the American Tennis Association, had a letter from Mr. Clark, of Jamaica, expressing his regrets in not being able to compete in Chicago this year. A business trip to England made it impossible, but he hopes to be in this country next year by all means. Finals postponed in Philadelphia Saturday on account of rain, will be played Wednesday in New York.

Jack Dempsey said today. ARS OF EXPERIENCE I-HELLYER for more than 45 specialty of treating ear, nose, throat Bayette Street 6 to 8 evenings New York Aug. 11.—One of the most promising bouts of the Velvet drome on the N.Y. side is the one Frankie Jerome and Danny Edwards, called the "second George Dixon," because of his speed and hitting. Jerome has made a splendid showing since he began among the bantams. There isn't a fellow here abouts who can outflight matter what pace or other fellow elects in either a straight and a game, two-fisted little chan in Edwards: Mr. Luis Angel, (or is it Angel Laus?) Firpo is putting himself "in bad" with Boss Muldon, of the N. Y. Boxing Commission, and Jack Kearnes, manager of Jack Dempsey. Here, Harry Wills has been begging for a crack at the title for the past four or five years, yet he is turned down and Firpo selected as the "next man." Now speaks Firpo, (thru his interpreter) bewailing the hustle with which he is shoved into a match with Dempsey, and declarating the present time than himself, ing that Wills is better prepared. Just for that now, Boss Muldoon is likely to give him a dirty look when he goes into New York, where he will fight the right and knees will doubtless turn up his nose at him when he climbs thru the ropes. We are told that Tally Holmes, who held the national singles championship among colored players for five years until beaten last year by Edgar Brown, has developed an acute case of "temperament." In other words they say the former champion demands a gang of "free doings" if he goes to Chicago to compete in the National Tournament. We are inclined to hold this rumor in obeyance. They do say Prof. Holmes is well able to take care of all the financial loose ends that the trip will entail. Nothing short of his inability to do so, would in our judgment justify a demand of this kind. The case which is said to be responsible for the above mentioned symptoms was also responsible it is said for his not taking part in the Eastern Championships held here two weeks ago. We hope they have got Tally "wrong." Sometime ago, the writer pointed out in these columns the great mistake that Harry Wills and his manager Paddy Mullins were making by keeping Wills out of the limelight, while the dubs were beating him to pee, and reaping him to publicity and financially the financial fragrms that the champ chose to leave after polishing off the third and fourth raters. Now speaks Damon Rayon, famous sports scribe, in part as follows: Wills is a lawyer on nights, while Wills is a lawyer would say the past few months. The writer thinks Wills is a good fighter—at least. Wills was a good fighter. * Wills in his old condition would give Dempsey a good light. "Perhaps Wills would beat Dempsey, if Dempsey is punishing no better than he is punched against Tom Gibbons at Sheby. But Wills and his handlers cannot hope to secure a match with Dempsey or Firpo, if Firpo takes the title from Dempsey, by sitting idly down and watching the pugilistic world roll by. Wills properly conducted is a $100,000 plant. But a non-productive plant pays mighty few dividends in prize fighting or any thing else." This yer Stanford lad is certainly by jumping himself a mess in the weekly bill for glory meets that are gipped conducted at. Drudgill Hill park under the auspices of the Playground Athletic League. And it looks like he's going to be the best thing in the city has ever turned out, if he keeps it up; which we're hopin' he will. "Start" (which ain't correct for his name 'cause he can't stand' for jumpin') held the city record in the running broad jump, 120 pounds class for two or three years past, which was the record of 17 ounces, until the past July. Fourth when he beat this distance by exactly one foot. And now comes Roger Grant, 19-year-old lad, and bags the Grand Rapids, Mich., from the ducky. Yes sirre, they will do it, every now and then, they will do it. In the process of saving souls, Jeff, it is said will make a tour of the world urging the amalgamation of all the white races to preserve white supremacy and white races for Jeff. That 15-round heating that Jack handed him sort of sourced Jim on race-mixing forever after wards. We should think it would. Danny Edwards Fights The boy is a graceful boxer and a ring general. There's a fellow capable of winning the title. NO WORLD'S SERIES BETWEEN EAST AND WEST BALL CLUBS Great Contest Chicago, Illinois, August 9—There will not be any East vs. West series at the present time the league president and the board of directors turning a deaf car to the unreasonable proposition, in as much as the Eastern league, acting as an outlaw organization, has contracted to dissatisfy players under clubs, and has joined the league battled on players, disregarding contracts signed and money advanced by owners. In reality the members of the Colored Professional Baseball association, which operates the Negro National league, with Birmingham, Memphis and Dayton as members of the North organization, consider the eastern so-called league as merely a "booking agency" and will treat them Memphis and Birmingham put up good games against all league clubs. The Tate Stars-Memphis Red Sox Sunday game ended 5 to 1, favor of the Southern boys. This game uncovered an 18-year-old pitcher, who see the big leaguers down with their bats. He happens to be Rube Foster's brother, who will be given a try with the American Giants either this fall or in the spring of 1943. Milwaukee's three straight wins over St. Louis has created a star. Four teams have graced the top ring of the ladder in the Negro National league race since the season started, namely the Chicago American Giants Indianapolis A. B. C.

They have atoned for these defeats, however, in their recent series when they took four out of five from the American Giants, allowing them the first game, which was on Saturday, July 28. The second game went to the Monarchs with Rogan on the mound against Rile, 3 to 2. Monday's game was won by the Monarchs, 6 to 5. Drake pitching and the old veteran, Mendez got away with a 14 to 0 shut-out and the final game the Giants, one of the most disgrateful trips for the Chicago club in recent years. By virtue of their victory over the Giants and the defeat of Detroit club, which lost three out of five games to the Indianapolis A. J. C.'s, the league race is creating much interest. The Monarchs have slipped into first place with a nice lead and the American Giants have been shown into third place, with Detroit in second and the Hoosier club in fourth. The Indianapolis club threatens to go to the Celtics in the next two weeks while the Giants are playing the Bulls, who rest at present in a fifth place and who are playing a packerjack game. PANAMA JOE GANS EASY FOR BOGASH New York, Aug. 9.—Lew Bogash, white, of Bridgeport, might have won the colored wetterweight championship Thursday night if he had been colored. He beat Panama Joe Gans, file holder, in a semi-final bout to the Dave Shude-Paul Doyle contest, at the Veldreem which won Bogash, who has blossomed into a middleweight, weighed 161½ and had a nine-pound advantage of Cyril Quinton, to call Panama Joe by his real name. Bogash, who is the real brunier type in appearance, proved just as tough as he looked. In the early rounds Bogash ripped terrific right swings to the stomach and was struck by a stormy evening for the dark boy. But Gans weathered the fourth and fifth rounds, and even the sixth, when it looked to be surely the end for the Negro, who was taking his beating stolically and doing some stiff punching himself here and there. Between the sixth and seventh rounds Lee P. Fllyn gave Gans earnest screams. He isn't hurting himself and finished Lee P. This must have been news to Gans. Whether it was Leo P.'s advice or possibly, Bogash had tired, Gaps came along strong in the next three rounds, but not enough to overcome the early Bogash advantage. And in the tenth and last round Bogash had the better of some very hard mixing. Eagles, 15; Young Sox, 5 The Penn. Eagles added to their string of straight wins this season by swamping the Young Black Sox last, Sunday, 16-5. The game was ended in the seventh by rain.

And by no means less than Dempsey himself. Dempsey's blow came right on top of one administer to the parties in question by Firpo, who declared recently that Wills was the more logical man to fight the elf-ponin at this time. Dempsey' passing this city en route to New York where he is going into training for the Firpo match, is quoted as saying that he would much prefer Wills for the next bout than Firpo. Dempsey's fighting was his business and that he would fight anybody, the champion said that Wills had asked for a fight before Firpo was ever heard off, and he would like to give him first chance at the title. He thought, however, that Wills would be his next opponent after Firpo. Penna. Eagles' Manager Explains In reply to our request that he explain the protest of the manager of the Sluggers that the Pennsylvania Eagles were falsifying in their claim of having not lost a game this season, the manager of the Eagles writes in part as follows: "This year we have played them (Sluggers) two games. We won the first and our empire and a fan on the outside got to fighting in the sixth innings, and the manager of the Sluggers stopped the game with the Eagles at bat, and we were two runs behind. "About the Weldong: They promised us a guarantee, and after the first innings our manager asked for our money after they told us they were only going to pay 60 per cent to the winner and 40 per cent to the loser. When they put a large bill on us for the park. Then we refused to play. "Signed, L. THOMAS, Mgr. 1125 Stockton St., City. signment. BLACK SOX AGAIN TRIM BACHARACHS Atlantic City, N. J., Aug. 6—The Baltimore Black Sox came here with the Bachrach Glenn after defeating the latter in Baltimore on Sunday, and humbled the clan of Jackson today, 8-7. "Mac" Mahoney who has been on the sick list for a couple of weeks, took a feel out on the hill to see if he was "all right" again and was so all right that he bested Henderson in a pitcher's duel, holding the Scanders to eight scuttured bingles to Henderson's nine. Five costly boots, however, added to Henderson's undoing. Wilson, Black Sox first-sucker was the fielding star. FEATURE DAY FRIDAY This Friday will be feature day at School 112 playground.

Chief interest in this bout centres in the fact that the winner will doubtless be matched with Harry Wills for the colored heavy-weight championship of the weight. A hot battle is supposed as both fighters are superior to the heavyweights now before the public, with the exception of Dempsey and Wills. Goffrey is a young fighter that was first brought to the attention of the prize ring world by Jack Johnson. He has bowled over practically all his opponent since he began to battle. Tate is well known to the boxing fraternity for the stiff arguments he has given Harry Wills. Wills is expected to be the third man in the ring.

A little over two years ago Mr. Harding entered the White House on the wave of the largest popular vote ever given the nation's chief executive. Neither in will nor physique was he a strong man, and the weakness of his policies affecting the Negro became almost immediately evident. So it happened in this brief space of time, that he lost the confidence of the intelligent and progressive Negro thinkers in all parts of the country, who migrated into the camp of his political opponent. The race expected much of Mr. Harding. His reelection promises stamped him a second Lincoln. Said he on one occasion: "President Wilson refused to recognize the Mexican peons because he says they are not capable of self-government. In the section of the country where the President's party dominates there are more than four millions of Negroes. Democrats will not permit them to help govern themselves. I believe the Negro is capable of governing himself, and I know one Negro is worth more than ten peons." Yet these things are history. Today we remember not our disillusions or disappointments; we recall only that a nation put upon him a burden too great to bear. The black lad, who, with tears streaming down his cheeks, placed a solitary rose upon the bier of Mr. Harding as the body lay in state in the canital, paid the tribute of his race to the man who was the President.

Credit To The Minister Too often do we neglect to give proper commendation to the faithful ministers of our country. We seem to think they are receiving their remembrance many times do we allow them to go through a very few words of praise and appreciation splendid work they are doing. They go about toral work in a quiet manner visiting the sick, the dead and speaking words of encouragement to the broken-hearted. They lend aid to the "down and outs" escaped the attention of the laity. They are just like anyone else. Give them a word of apology and see what effect it will have on them. An observer the splendid co-operation and unselfish preachers cannot fail to have a higher appreciation for them. Too often do we neglect to give proper credit and commendation to the faithful ministers of our community. We seem to think they are receiving their reward, and many times do we allow them to go through life with a very few words of praise and appreciation for the splendid work they are doing. They go about their pastoral work in a quiet manner visiting the sick, burying the dead and speaking words of encouragement and consolation to the broken-hearted. They lend aid to the "down and outs" who have escaped the attention of the laity. They are human just like anyone else. Give them a word of appreciation and see what effect it will have on them.

Except that he is a conservative, yet vigorous and forceful, there is little chance to prophecy what effect his administration will have on vital questions he will inherit from his predecessor. Even his connection with the Boston police strike, which seems to be the outstanding event in his career, does not shed much light on what he will do as President and his reaction to matters vital to colored people will yet have to be seen. If President Coolidge, like Roosevelt, though carrying out the policies of his predecessor, courageously meets the questions affecting the life and happiness of the American people in the spirit of a square deal for everybody without respect for lines of color, special privilege and racial clevage, he will justify the hand of fate that has swept him to the highest and most important position in the gift of men. But if he complacently follows the bad policies of Harding, if he belongs to that group who believe that conditions are good enough, and shut his ear to the appeal of the struggling, surging and restless masses trying to free themselves from the yoke of economic and racial bondage, he is not the man the nation needs. The EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN O. T. Discusses Old Timer was standing on the corner of Gold and Carey streets the other night when the reporter spied him talking to a group of elderly women. A man in a suit and hat carrying a briefcase. "It's a shame" said one of the growers. "Ain't it" responded O. T. "What is?" interrupted the reporter. For once Old Timer did not rebuke the reporter. "Boy" he said, younger days a Mefodis church could not give one of these here street carnivals hundreds of boys and girls of the Sunday school, and clam music while games of chance and rattles are being conducted by grown-ups. Yep I gettin' old," repeated the old fellow saying good night in shuffling off down Carey Street. The reporter fell in step with the new general, and the reporter. "Well answered O. T.

The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus in Garia, built in 350 B. C. and torn down in 1402 A. D., was the fifth wonder. Mausoleus was the custom of the Kings of Garia, had married his sister, and when he died his sister-wife erected this magnificent monument to his memory. On a platform at the top was a stone chariot, within which stood statues of Mausoleus and his spouse, Artemisia. An earthquake shook the chariot from its position in 1402 which was the same year the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem took Halicarnassus and torn down the Mausoleum, using the stones to construct the fortress of St. Peter. 26.—What bank was awarded first in the 14th U.

It raised $115,000. 27.-Who was Jeanne Pierre Boyer?

But in 1820 a better period was opened by Jeanne Pierre Boyer. Boyer contented himself with a book titled *Ruled intelligently* 'till 1843. He was virtually the founder of the Republic of Haiti. 28.—Who was Charles Henry Turner? Charles Henry Turner, Ph.D. who died recently was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1867.

The FORUM Is The Democratic Party An Enemy of the Colored School? Rev. Geo. F. Brugg Asks This Question And Answers It Mr. Editor, when you were a small boy, in 1855, we had an important election in this city and State. By the most solid vote of Negroes, and thousands of reputable Democrats, a Republican was elected Governor, and a Republican was elected Mayor. The Legislature was Republican, and the City Council was Republican. The city School Board was also Republican. The group asked of the Republican Legislature the founding of a state institution, similar to Tuskegee, for Colored People of Maryland. The bill was introduced, and had a chance of passing; but our Republican governor, and is a Board of State Education, defied it, on the ground, "there is no pressing necessity" for the same. In the City Council, in 1896, the late Dr. J. Marcus Cargill, introduced a measure to "eliminate" white teachers from school schools. After a Republican City Council and amended nearly all the laws to allow a bill it finally passed. In the shape in which it passed, if honestly and fairly enforced, the "elimination" would have been exceedingly slow. But, by actual subfugure, with a Republican Mayor, School Board, and Council, every advantage was taken and the matter of elimination was pressure and threats, were brow to be on our white Republicans; and, two years after the bill had passed the first beginning in the matter of "elimination" was initiated, during the fall of 1898, when Henry Grafton Brown, and Nannie Groomes were put in charge of East Street School, in East Baltimore. Now, as a contrast with the above In the fall of 1899, Thomas Gordon Huyes, a Democrat, was elected Mayor over W. T. Malster. Despite his infidelity in the matter, Malster received, practically, the united support of the Colored People. His political obligation to the Colored Race. But soon after his inauguration the "New charter" went into effect. A new School Board, of nine persons, was appointed by Mr. Hayes, and it was this School Board appointed by the Democratic Mayor which wrought a radical change in the Schools. This board that Prof. Hugh Brown, and an entire colored faculty in our High School. Mr. Hooper, as Mayor, had the opportunity to appoint a colored man on the Cheltenham Board; but did not do it. Mr. Master had the same opportunity, but appointed a colored man to the tention was called to the matter he promised to do better next time. But one of his appointees declined, and he immediately appointed another white man, a Mr. Doyle, a whiskey dealer. Now for the contract, Thomas G. Hewlett, Conservative Mayor, was the first of the Mayors of Baltimore City to make such an appointment. He appointed Gen. Shryrock and Harry S. Cummings to represent the city of Baltimore on that Board. Timanus, Republican Mayor, has no appointments of a colored man on the board of that institution. Preston followed the example of the Democratic Hayes, and re-appointed Shryrock and Cummings. Upon the death of these gentlemen, he appointed as their successors, former Gov. Goldsborough and E. B. Taylor. The late Republican Mayor, following the examples of his predecessors, made no Negro appointments. I have simply re-cited these facts carry their own comment. George F.

AROUND CHICAGO Chicago, Aug. 9.—Here in the cradle of liberty the colored people have joined with the nation whole mourning for the death of our late President, Warren G. Harding. It is a sad commentary in these days of world friendships, a word or deed added in the memory to the protection of the life and rights of over 12,000,000 religious loyal and patriotic, American citizens. Mme. C. J. Walker still lives. The ten annual conference of the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company is a potent reminder of the permanent and constructive genius of the greatest colored woman in American history. Like Booker T. Washington, she from obscure sources became because she served humanity, not only through the marketing of a superior product, but by making a place for thousands of skilled operators and creating in her manufacturing plant new openings for trained and intelligent young lawyers, women, clerks, twins and hookees. Her business is an outstanding monument to the principle of cooperation within the group: fine products made and marketed by colored hands and largely used by colored people; but like the other hands, oversteps the artificial lines of color. The still the 12,000,000 colored people of America have hardly realized in a tangible way the great and latent possibilities of this precedent established by the late Mme. C. J. Walker in applying it universally to all lines of business, . . . Insurance, state banks, however, are fast beginning to uncover these truths. The several national conventions, including the conclave of Masons, Medics, the Ellis, the Business Men's League and so can all learn from the voices of the civil national colored Agency Convention in the United States meeting this week in Detroit under the auspices of the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. And the spirit of Mme. Walker will live on, through the loya agents of the company, by his touchless dangle her faith, lovable granddaughter, and a life-long friend a sincerely ardent champion of the policies of his chief both during her lifetime and since. Young men and young women can learn much from the true history of the great granddaughter organization. It should be in the library of every colored home in this land.

For self- government will ultimately lead to good government; but without self-government will not long endure while human nature retains its self-confidence of Abraham Lincoln's truisms that no man is good enough to govern another man without his consent. enough to know. We impose upon ourselves a protective tariff whereby we purposefully pay a higher rate for home products than for which we might secure the same grade of foreign made goods. This is in order to build up and maintain home industries. The principle is sound. There is hardly a position in official ranks today that could not be better filled by appetitive than by elective choice.

Some races and nations are more experienced and able of government than others. America is hundreds of the Philippines in the western control. But government is like the specific for smallmouth bass, wholly ineffective unless the patient is instrument. Unless the vaccine takes the patient experience. The advanced peoples of the world can best serve them by wise encouragement, advice and council of successful interference and direction. The Japanese have fully demonstrated the wise policy. As soon as they extended the elements of wayward dreams, they dismissed every European administration and control of their political and educational system, and supplied their places with experienced sons of their own breed. They kept their eyes opened and maintained the relation to the best men and movements in the Western civil speech for itself. Had they been under European tutelage the people they were able to walk alone, they would have the precarious support of the white man's crutch in govern themselves better than any body else is ill men. This is true of Mexico, Hayi, and Liberia. In philosophical calm, President Wilson said that the nation whose's blind to their own delight while light illuminated self-government, and asserted that Mexico is same bloody privilege. England has been governing the Negroes of Jamaica hundred years, and yet they are not half as far along as Hayi, who have struggled unassisted, under the self-weigherity. The greatest thing that America ever did was to light the night of impostion that the wavering hand of the republic had flickering amidst the encircling hundred years. Surely the chivalrous American nation will stand, and not the big bully of the weaker nation as way to learn to swim is to swim. The way for government is to govern. He is the shunted inside to watch others perform impossible for you. If the American Negro has him hear. Mr. Garvey's Predicament: I notice in the last issue of the Negro World the survey declares that Kelly Miller takes delight in his case. The Potentate of Africa was never more mistakes than his best friends will admit that he has made mistakes, but is just incurred the penalty of the law. I regret it. It does the Negro race no good to gloat over the fate of any one of its members, however mistaken or may be. Mr. Garvey was charged with a technical transgression. A court of competent jurisdiction has declared that he not yet reached the stage of unilateral judicial penalty but in any man's misfortune, he is just incurred the penalty of the law. I regret it. It does the Negro race no good to gloat over the fate of any one of its members, however mistaken or may be. Mr. Garvey was charged with a technical transgression has declared that he not yet reached the stage of unilateral judicial penalty but in any man's misfortune, he is just incurred the penalty of the law. I regret it. It does the Negro race no good to gloat over the fate of any one of its members, however mistaken or may be. Some races and nations are more experienced and adept in the care of government than others. Hundred years ahead of the modern age, the care of self-control. the advanced principles of brief treatment, advice and council, and not by pacific, interference and direction; The Japanese have fully demonstrated the wisdom of this policy. As soon as they comprehended the elements of Europe's ways of doing things, they dismissed every European from immediate administration and control of their political, economic and educational system, and supplied peoples with less seasoned and experienced sons of their own breed. They kept their eyes opened and maintained the closest helpful relation to the best men and movements in the Western world. The Had they remained under European tutelage till their tutors judged that they were able to walk alone, they would still be leasing on the precarious support of the white man's crutch. And can govern themselves better than any body else is likely to govern This is true of Mexico, Hayti, and Liberia. In a moment of philosophic calm, President Wilson said that the nations of Europe shed each other's blood to their own delight while fighting their way to enlighten self-government, and asserted that Mexico should enjoy the same bloody privilege. England has been governing the Negroes of Jamaica for an hundred years, and yet they are not half as far along as the blacks of Hayti, who have struggled unassisted, under the heavy load of self-sovereignty. The menesthic thing that America ever did was to sniff out the light of independence that the wavering hand of this black sister republic had held flickering amidst the encircling gloom for a hundred years. Surely the chivalrous American nation will stand as the big brother, and not the big bully of the weaker peoples of the world. The way to learn to swim is to swim, the way for the government is to govern, the way for the spirit and enervate the people to be shunted aside to watch others perform a task deceived immensely for you. If the American Negro has ears to hear, let him hear. I notice in the last issue of the Negro World that Mr. Marcos Garvey decries that Kelly Miller takes delight in his imprisonment. The Potentate of Africa was never more mistaken in his eyes, although his best friends with him mistakenly took his side in any man's misfortune. If Mr. Garvey has justly incurred the penalty of the law, I regret it. It does the Negro race no good to gloat over the misfortune of any one of its members, however mistaken or misguided he may be. Mr. Garvey was chained with a technical transgression of the law, and compelled jurisdiction has declared him guilty. His case has not yet reached the stage of judicial finality. For some local reason, inexplicable to my lay mind, he is denied the privilege of hair pending appeal. Mr. Marcos has punished and punished on a proprandia instead of his transgression, his case not a miracle of joy, but a matter of protest on part of every right-minded Negro. The Negro is the habitual victim of ultra-judicial psychology. Any Negro is but dancing on his own coffin who takes delight in judicial penalty inflicted upon any member of the race. This is unfortunate due to the worth of, or unworthiness of Mr. Garvey and his movement. Education in the North In October, 1921, I contributed in which I touched upon the schools.

The mere mention of the issue evoked widespread comment and criticism. Of course my motive was impugned. This is an understood requalit of every one who essays to handle public questions. I notice that the editor of the Crisis has attracted critical fire in his direction. The basic difficulty consists in the vain attempt in trying to appraise the cause of the question of inherent illogicality. When the demands a Negro staff for the Federal hospital at Tuskegee, it accepts segregation, or at least yields to its inevitability. The rigors of logic would moderate if not estop the Tuskegee demands demonstrate ontary against segregation. The Messenger is the only publication that has come to my notice that has the courage of consistency which, I think, is at the expense of consistency which is a jewel which the practical statesman relegates to the amenable moralizer. It is a condition and not a theory that confronts us. Let me lay down a platform upon which every Negro can stand, some in the middle, and some it must be. "WHEREVER AND WHENEVER THE NEGRO IS RELEGATED BY PUBLIC SENTIMENT TO SEPARATE AREAS THE OPPORTUNITIES OF THE CIRCUMSCRIBED ZONE SHOULD BE COMMANDED BY NEGRO TALENT AND AMBITION. THE SHIP DESIGNED BY EVERY ONLY NEGRO PASSENGER, SHOULD BE COMMANDED BY A NEGRO CAPTAIN AND CREW OF CAPABLE SEAMANSHIP." A State College For Maryland The AFRO-AMERICAN reasonably and justly demands an adequate State college for the Negroes of Maryland. West Virginia, within the past three years has appropriated one million dollars for a state college for the one hundred thousand Negroes in the mountain state. Maryland has two hundred and thirty thousand Negroes. You may wonder what man of them has the free and unquestioned right of franchise. Unless they focus their suffrage upon such a simple, obvious and undisputed racial right and advantage, of what use them is the franchise? Put this proposition squarely before the Negro voters of Maryland, Mr. Murphy. The people want more Fords, and less Ford. --- Self-Government Superior vs Inferior State College for Maryland personal friend and political heir of iserable muddle of the Philippine globetrotted one of the most capable life was easily the leading military political jealousy and petty rivalry american Army on European sollomination for the Presidency by a greatest universities offered him he held never been to college, ideal honors selected him for the ruling the Philippines, who stub-selves.
