L., Aug. 30.—According to information obtained by a clever newspaper reporter at a recent meeting of the Ku Klux Klan in this section a very prominent citizen was speaker of the evening and during his address he pointed out the wonderful progress the organization had made. He declared that at present 18 governors of states are now members of the klan and now embark on new more than five million members in all parts of the country. As far as the reporter was able to learn several clergymen were the most active members of the klan, the speaker declared that it was not the intention of the klan to make any attack on Negroes of this country. He pointed out that the Negro was not actually an evidence for centuries past. It is the religious and bounded duty of the American white man to nurture and protect the Negro and to see that the klan does not intend any harm to Negroes. All they want them to do is to stay in their places. This, he declared was the plan related to Japanese, Chinese, Jewish kiks. The klan in reality is the best friend that these people have in this country. The klan's put down generals' unrest and mission is to stabilize government, principles of true Americanism.

GOVERNOR FOR ANTI-LYNCH CONFERENCE New York, Aug. 30—Governor "Al" Smith of New York, prominently mentioned as Democratic Candidate for President of the United States, because of his hold and uncompromising stand against the Ku Klux Klan, and his fight for personal liberties and "rights" of all citizens made the following comment on the proposed Governors Conference, to abolish lynching which is being sponsored by Senator Wim, Cabell France, or Maryland: "Every red-blooded American revolts at the outrages and mob violence perpetrated from time to time on our Negro citizens. Believing as I do that each State should deal with its problems of lawlessness and violence to the utmost of its power, it seems to me that it would be to great advantage for the Governors of the various states to confer on the subject of anti-lynch laws so that uniform legislation might be designed to prevent these terrible exhibitions of mob violence. Uniform legislation will assure justice to the Negro the protection which is his due and some measure will protect the rest of the community."

VEEKLY TALKS ON ADVERTISEMENT By Henry F.

After a deal of persuasion the Baltimore house placed an order for 500 hundred of the articles to be shipped in thirty days. The order came and the manager of the house was called upon by a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN who was informed by the salesman of the dead. A certain number of lines were arranged for the house and six consecutive times, and stopped. Why did they stop is the thing which should interest you Mr. Business Man. They stop because the AFROAMERICAN brought them business from Albany, Ga., South, to Cincinnati, Ohio, the home of the manufacturer, and the manufacturer informs them by wire that they cannot make another shipment until September 10th. The article and the name of the Baltimore business, house must necessarily be withheld from the public, as if would be bad business to let the public know that the store cannot get another shipment until September 10th. And what you to know is that the minimum price of the article is $3.50 cash, and the question we want you to answer Mr. Business Man is who is the most sagacious business man, the man that advertises or the man who Doesn't? 1 Births, Death Births, Deaths, Marriages Phone Notices to VErnon 6016 WILSON- ARMSTRONG — Charles, 26, 1419 Dilion street; Cora, 23, GOULD- BROOKS—Willa, m.P., 27, 243 N.

The letter states: I have your telegram of April 28. It is quite correct that we are working upon a plan or organizing the Tuskegee Hospital upon a colored offices and staff. It is an institution for Negro service men. It is located adjacent to the great Negro university. These people have a right to prove their autonomy and themselves. The decision is not final, but certainly such a program will be followed out if we find available the abundance of experienced professional people to inaugurate such a program. I would not, for anything in the world, do that which would suggest the making of any racial tie. I am at a very low to understand what your telegrams mean to convey to me relating to that phase of the situation. Meanwhile, the survey is going on with great care and no small degree of hopefulness of being a fine and helpful thing. If there are urgent and appropriate reasons should not be done I should be more than glad to consider them. Very truly yours. WARREN G. HARDING" POWELL EVANS SAYS By Edgar G. Brown Phila, Pa., Aug. 30—Told terested in what he thot of them Powell Evans said: "I wish you would say for me that a citizen's ability and not his color is the only qualification that Powell Evans knows.

"It happened that he had gained his skill in boxing from no less able a sparring instructor than Joe Gans, once champion lightweight of the world. "Gans was interested in a dusky bell attached to the Williams and Walker organization and he depended on the star's entrance dummitance through the stage door. In order to curry favor with Williams, he undertook to instruct him in boxing. "Williams proved an apt and ardent pupil, and so devoted to the sport did he become, that when he went to London he carried a sparring partner with him." Baseball Baseball was another of Williams' favorite sports. He captained a team composed of members of his own company and later he played with a team of the Follies actors, which used to play the stagehand's team and that of the business staff. I never saw him play baseball, but I have been reliably informed by a well-known newspaper man who signs a sporting page in a daily, that Williams was as incompetent a player as he was an expert comedian. Rennold Wolf, who had elected himself captain of the ball team, by virtue of his prominence as a star, and that this same spirit of bravado had prompted him to challenge the whole theatrical world. He then told that in Boston a nine of burlesque comedians undertook to annihilate Williams' team and that Williams contributed to an inglorious defeat by muffling a ball at a critical point and stopping it with his teeth instead of his hands.

While there is indexed in the Billboard office, more than 600 stopping places available for the Negro traveller, as a matter of fact the race can boast of adequate hotel accommodations in less than one-third of the larger cities of the country and in very few of the smaller towns. The file referred to contains the names of many hotels operated for the patronage of the general public without regard to the race of the patron, and many more of private home keepers whose doors are hospitably thrown open to the race traveller who could not be otherwise cared for. Just about a dozen corps bear the names of homidee corps who hold the accommodation of colored people by members of their own race. The management of many of these restricted, few seem to care for patronage once it is obtained. Travelers Prefer Rooming Houses Some are operated on the policy of getting all they can from nexus of getting all of the profit possible from the patron at his or her first visit to the hostelry. Others assume that a bed without any supplementary service of any character is enough justification for collar price quoted. Some assume that the patron is not towards their house or be forced to patronize it. Few unknown to those who would patronize the hotel, if they but knew of it. Another grace error is the presumption that all colored travelers are seeking a "good time" with its attendant noise. Few of the numbers who give the patron and upon arrival in a town proceed to seek a roaming house. Need Noted by Business Men's League There is no desire to disparage the hoteled hotel. A goodly number of them will challenge the admiration of even those familiar with the pretentious houses of other peoples. The criticism offered in this article is intended to be constructive, and it is conceded that no evil can be rectified until its existence has been acknowledged. That the hotel business is sadly in need of overhauling has been recognized by the National Negro Business League, and that body has been trying for several years to interest hotel men in the ment and the uniformity of ser-organizing for the sake of improvice standards in their business. So far little progress has been made. A steady patronage is the back-bones of any business. There are just two groups capable of providing this sustaining volume to the keepers of the hotel, the callerd men and the show folks. Because of their longer stay in each community, the greater of those is the show folks. Show folks as Patrons At the present time there are six big musical companies on the road with more in rehearsal or early prospects of rehearsal. Fifty tabbed companies are travelling over the land. Four hundred vocalecite bands of the peace being twelve hundred剧院 are being booked hither and thither while more than sixty musical groups are playing parks and dance halls engagements across the land. Add to these the concert artists, pitchmen, medicine show people, the club and hall entertainers and the circus shows without even the audience we have more than five thousand potential hotel patrons, not a fifth of whom even think of a hotel. Railroad Workers Need Them Dividing among the hotels—if the towns affording hotels worthy of the name—they would average thirty guests per day. This would provide a nice foundation upon which a healthy business might be based. It would enable a hotel to maintain every essential to a big business, thus be prepared for the tourist traffic, the convention business and for the increasing number of Negro commercial travellers that are being met with on the road. But two things are required, reasonable rates and reasonable service. Hoth are the products of intelligent management. If it would succeed, a hotel must find a public, and then inform the public of that fact. The two forms of advertising must be accomplished. Must Advertise First, a hotel must be advertised in publications that reach the traveller all the time, particularly while he is laying out his route. Local papers will not accomplish this, but he will be in the city one or more days, and his abiding place selected and occupied. Next the printed advertising must be supplemented by the word or mouth that is so potent; and the same is true of singing the praises of a good stopping place as is the performer or railroad man.

From Epson the show went to Wilmington, and from there to various big cities of the South. The show is booked solid until October 1st, after which to the manager friends to take it to the Pacific Coast, where a great many engagements are already made. Playing only in the big white theatre and largest concert halls, Handy Martin have been attentive to the road.

GGEST AND BEST WEEKLY BALTIMORE, AUG. 31, 1929 POLICE AND FIREMEN DIG FEVERISHLY AS EARTH CAVES IN Continued From Page One the dirt and as ach load was taken out, three colored men who had stuck away the gruesome task of shoveling away the dirt looked anxiously at the cavity left by the shovel. YOUNG'S BODY FOUND At last as the shell took out a load of earth, one of the colored workmen scraped away the flesh from his shen. He fell on his knees in the mud and gently began removing the earth with his hands. A score of firemen leaped into the hole and began digging with shovels. At last a body was uncovered, but it was found that the head was caught in the mud. This was removed the body was found to be that of M. G. Young, white, the timekeeper. His features mashed into an unrecognizable pulp. As the body was raised from the pit, by means of the steam shovel, a sob was heard across the street, where a woman had仁 looking from a window. In describing the accident, Thomas Wimore, 1510 Fremont street, stated that he and his companion were working in the 25-foot inner excavation when, without warning and with the help of a friend, they tore down upon the shoring's supposed to hold the bank, and it gave way like so much paper, and that before they knew it they were engulfed nearly to their neck in this course heavy clay. Since 1319, Presstman street, who, with Wilmore, received greater injury than some of the other laborers, and who with him lay in the Colonial Hospital on N. Mount street, stated that those caught had no chance to escape. His great fear as he was being dug from the dehole, he stated, was that the man he was working with were bringing the side of the old building with it. With the exception of Wilmore and Wallace, all of the men injured have been able to be taken to their bones. Physicians at the Colonial hospital stated that they would not be taken Thursday or Friday just how severely these two men were injured. A double investigation to fix responsibility for what is believed to be carelessness in not taking sufficient care in building shoring while men worked in what is virtually a municipal department. The municipal department Wednesday. That the dangerous character of the soil in which this foundation was being laid was known for some time, and why a more rigid system of shoring was not decided upon will be discussed. SAYS YOUNG CURISED One of the workmen who had escaped from the tearing death, told an Auto reporter that there was plenty of time for the men to escape when the dirt test began to fail, but said they had been running across a joint cursing at them when they expressed their intention of getting into a safe place. BUILDING IS RESUMED Following the work of rescue and making the place safe work on the big bunging has been resumed. The excavation where the accident occurred was a space of 25 feet square where the big poters for the school building. Although it was feared that other bodies might have been buried a complete check-up and accounted for every man employed at the place.

He asked what was his status as a judge of elections, and was informed that immediately after he filed that someone had ordered that a man named Ryan be given the place. Some one inquired about Elections had Mr. Greenwood's name placed right away back on the list of judges. Willard W. Allen, who withdrew from the field for committeeman-at-large, and James C. Short, who got out of the executive fight in the 18th Ward, are being commended for fixing up things that their staying in the contest would have caused. LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES GLAD Louis H.

When the green-eyed monster drove Mrs. Pearle Jones, 1019 N. Mount street, to walk into the collar of her younger and more successful rival, Mrs. Louise Henson, 1630 Mosher street, they both took a bite on each other, both cost 10 each in the Police Court Friday. The trouble between Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Henson is said to have started over a year ago when Mrs. Louise Henson, then a winner girl of 18, broke into the matrimonial aspirations and took to taking part in marching off to the maturit with him. Although she is now married, Mrs. Jones never quite got over the fact that this younger woman had taken Mr. Henson from her and the matter came to a conclusion according to the testimony Mrs. Jones went to the business place of Mr. Henson and started to administer corporal punishment on her young rival. When the frucus was over both women had helped themselves according to outlooks so fierce was the combat that they both looked like hula hula dancers from Hawaii, so far as clothes are concerned, Mrs. Henson winning the bout by a shud. After hearing the testimony Magistrate Larkin thought $10 each would settle the matter for the present. Peace Dove Escaped William Stanley, 523 Robert street, gave Magistrate Rafta a timely piece of advice when he told him at the Sunday morning session of the Northwestern Police Court never to bet on a woman's smiling face. After he had settled a little dispute between his sweetheart, Miss Dudley Fitchet, and himself by knocking her out with a hammer, he carried her in the bath-room, nudged her over the edge and held them made up; that is, Mr. Stanley thought they had. he settled down for a peaceful day and was taking things easy when Miss Fitchet told him she was going out. A few minutes later Stanley said a gang of police officers came in on him. Miss Fitchet, who lives at 1200 Winchester street, told the Magistrate that she had arrested because she was tired of him beating on her all the time. He drew a $25 fine. When officers from the Northwestern District, saw Mrs. Parthina Wimberly, 809 Park avenue, perched on the roof of her home, helped their breath and took a long look. Investigation revealed the fact that Mrs. Wimberly had selected this place as a haven of safety from the fire, arranged spouse, Mr. John Wimberly. She told the Magistrate that her husband had gone on a rummage and was chasing her about the house with a razor when she thought of a place he could not follow her and make for the root. She made $25 and cost on the charge of assault. When George Britton, 1424 Division street, a member of the Black Sox baseball team, missed a catch nea the first base Saturday, fans in the stand jeered him until he became enraged and let go a fast one, which hit Drucy Rescue, a fan, in the face. Britton brought into the Southern Police Court Sunday morning Britton told Magistrate Patze that he did not mean to release the ball when he made a feint to throw it, but that the pitcher was throwing spit balls and it slipped out of his hand. This explanation did not quite explain why he was on the lecture on good sportsmanship, Britton was assessed a fine of $1 and costs.

Try our wonderful Shampoo. Dandruff removed in one application. Warner T. McGuinn Broad casts Warning To Workers Engaged In Dangerous Employment GETS $4,160 DAMAGES Insurance Heads Fought Hard To Keep From Paying Widow of Coal Cart Worker Killed Dependents of workers who are killed while engaged in their daily occupations or workers themselves who are injured should see to it that they get the full amount of insurance coming to them under the State compensation act, Warner T. McGuinn declared today. Mr. McGuinn's statement followed the three month's fight to secure the compensation due Mrs. Anna Sugars, 1927 Carey street, whose husband was killed on a car crash of the Enterprise Pun Company when it collided with an automobile driven by a woman. Under the law, declared, Mr McGuinn, employees of labor in dangers enterprises are liable when their employees are killed or injured. To save themselves any risk, these companies insure their employees against injury in regular insurance companies. When workers are injured, not only use every legal means to avoid payment, but also offer dependents smaller sums in order to compromise the case. In the Sugars case, the American Mutual Liability Company nearly had the claim for damages rubed out on the ground that the couple was not legally married. At first North Carolina authorities could find no records but when we asked Mrs. Sugars rescue, the record of her license was found among those of the whites. The law requires in case of death that the widow or dependents be paid $10 a week for eight years. Losser amounts must be paid to the widow when the worker loses a limb, is internally injured, or otherwise rendered unfit to work normally. POMONKEY, MD. Pomonkey, Md., Aug. 30—Rev J. W.

Carey Street 513 Laurens St. Baltimore, Md. Baltimore, Md. 'SUPERMANTOMAN' FIFTH INSTALLMENT Dixon appeared far from being intimidated. Indeed, he was secretly amused. Carefully repressing his mirth, he asked with sprightly ingeniousness: "In what particular, sir" The Senator, it appears, had not foreseen an analysis of his question, for he stammered: "Oh, you know very well what I mean. I mean—well—well—do you feef you are the equal of a white man? "Your question has answered itself," responded Dixon. "In what way?" "Well, sir, if I could tell how aasia until 1807, and in Austria until 1848. Even here in America white man feels, which I would have to do to make the comparison, then it would mean that I, a Negro, have the same feelings as a white man. No response. Silence, except for the rumbling of the tavern. After a short pause Dixon continued: "Since as your question implies, I must use it to measure the good in a white man. I believe that any white man who like myself is endeavoring to do the right thing is as good a man as I. And more, sir," he added in a tone of gentle remonstrance. Your question has been complimentary to your self, for in asking me where to consider myself as good as a white man, you are assuming that all white men, irrespective of reputation, are alike." Yes, sir, Irish men and women were slaves in New England, being sold like black slaves and not a whit better. Many of the most socially prominent in America have slave ancestors. Lincoln's ancestors were white slaves. According to Professor Cigrand, Grover Cleveland's great-grandfather, Richard Falley was an Irish slave in Connecticut. There were also white slaves in Virginia. Black and white slaves use to work together in the fields in Barbados. Indeed, it would be possible to find white persons living man? "Your question has answered itself," responded Dixon. "In what way?" The Senator appeared more confused than ever. His face flushed and his eyes moved shiftily. But he was determined not to be beaten Rallying to the charge, he began in an irritable and domineering tone "You said you were born in Alabama." "Yes, sir." "Your father was a slave, wasn't he?" "My grandmother, sir," corrected Dixon trunkly. "Well, what I want to get at is this: Do you, the descendant of a slave, consider yourself the social equal of a white man, who has always been free and who owned your people as chattel?" And he finished musterly: "Come on, now; no more beating around the bush. Dixon decided to accept his meaning. In a tone that implied a perfect mutual understanding he began: of course, sir, this is a matter that deserves our country and that can speak on it calmly and without any in feeling." Then in a polite and courteous tone he explained: matured as I was in a part of the South where a white skin is defiled and a black one vifilled, candidly, in my childhood. I did believe that there was something about the white man that made him superior to me. But, fortunately for me, I have read and read me. I once worked with him, Simpson, a lecturer. With him I visited the principal countries of the world. In one english town, where I lived six years, I didn't see a dark face. Living thus exclusively among whites I observed that, except for differences due entirely to environment, my people were different. Indeed, what struck me most in my travels was the universality of human nature. Europ. un-treated Negroes possessed, so tar as I could ascertain, the same temperament and manner, class for class, as the whites. Then my position on these cars has given me a rare fortune. Fortunately, many persons in all kinds of relationships, and if there is any inherent difference between Negro and Caucasian I have failed to find after sixteen years of rather care- This reply seemed to nettle the Senator still more. He demanded with increased irritation: "But what about slavery? The Negro has been a slave since the dawn of history. Consult any dictionary of synonyms and you will see the Negro was once slave. A black skin has ever been a livery of servitude. And this world-odor slavery a sign of the Negro's hopeless interiority? my father owned hundreds of slaves." Dickson noticed the Senator's increased agitation and determined to be canned. He replied with frankness that exasperated the other suit more: "Strange as it may sound, sir, the Caucasian has never been ready tree. The vast majority of its members are today inductary the series and mentally the slaves of the tew. But if the tenor of the series were nearly all members of the white variety of mankind have been slaves that could be bought and sold, Britons were saves to the Romans. Cleo, writing to his friend Atticus, said: 'The stupidest and ughest slaves come from Britain. I ravage, an English historian, says that the Slavs were Thewes (Anglo-Saxon slave) was entirely the property of his master—booy as well as hair; like the exego, he was part of the livestock, ranking in use and value with the beasts of the plough. savery persisted in England in the sixteenth century. In Classical slave countries slaves were not even permitted to buy their freedom, since it was contended that their all was the property of their masters. Seldom was not awolished in Prus DENTON, MD.

Indeed, carefully repressing his mirth, meniousness: "or" had not foreseen an analymered: "ell what I mean. I mean—you are the equal of a white answered itself," responded Asia until 1807, and in Austria until 1848. Even here in America white persons were slaves. There were Irish slaves in New England." "Irish slaves in New England?" echoed the other in scornful surprise. "Yes, sir, Irish men and women were slaves in New England, being sold like black slaves and not a whit better business of the most socially accepted in America have slave prostitutes. Lincoln's ancestors were white slaves. According to professor Cigrand, Grover Cleveland's great-grandfather, Richard Falley, was an Irish slave in Connecticut. There were also slave Virginia. There were also white slaves used to work together in the fields in Barbados. Indeed, it would be quite possible to find white persons living in this country who were born in actual slavery, such having come from Russia, where slave abolished the same Emancipation was signed. You were to Wallace's 'Russia.' At this very moment white women are on sale in the Turkish and Moroccan markets, where anyone, Negroes included, may buy, hence, you see, the white man black in the matter of slavery." Dixon paused a moment, then added: "But I should think that the stigma attached to slavery would be more justly placed on the descendants of slaveholders than on the offspring of slaves, the kidnapper, and not the kidnapped, who is the odious one? With all defences against parentage, my opinion that slaveholders were parasites of the most nervous kind." The Senator glared angrily at the porter. He was exasperated at the argument, but saw no way of getting out of it. He arose and stopped, pacing the smoker, the resume, the seat, after a few moments he insisted: "But the Negro himself acknowledges his racial inferiority. Just look how he bleaches his skin, straightens his hair, and uses other devices to appear like the white man! Isn't that a sign of intelligence? Imitation of knowledge on the other side. Do you see any other once thus imitating the looks of the white man? I can't imagine a more comical sight than a Negro dandy with his hair all ironed out until it looks like the quills upon the freetul porcupine. Imagine a white man darkening himself to look Negro; then he becomes眼着eying; Negro is shamed of himself. If he believes himself the equal to the white man, his actions certainly do not show it." Dixon started. He had never looked at this matter in this light before. Now he pondered his reply. The passenger noted his silence with a smile of satisfaction. Dixon found his response. Yes, these Neapolitan doctors 'doctor' acknowledge white do acknowledge inferiority. I have always bed that one's hair or color of skin is as perfect as nature can make them—so perfect that to temper with either is the surest way of spoiling them eventually. "So much the worse for the black man, then," retorted the passenger, sarcastically, "that he should try to ape a race, but he is just to spoil them all." The best proof is that he acknowledges it himself. When a man acknowledges his failure, don't you believe him?" "Indeed, sir, retorted Dixon. "It is clearly the fault of the average white that these so-called Negroes should try to be other than they are. In a country where a drop of Negro blood more or less visible, and a kink, more or less pronounced, in the hair may altogether change the current of one's life, what can you expect?" He paused an instant, then continued: "I will give you an instance. Two brothers, intimately known to me, arrived in New York from abroad. The hair of one brother did not indicate Negro extraction, that of the other did. The straight-haired one obtained a position commensurate with his ability. Incidentally, he went South and married a white woman, and the other two became educated and more gentlenessly of the two many for subterfuge, after frustless endeavor had to take a porter's job. He finally went back home in disgust. Dixon reflected reflectively: "Also do not forget that if certain Negroes iron their curly hair to make them also iron their straight hair to make their curly. The whites also, by bleaching their complexion and hair wearing false hair and the blonds make a false show, and the superiors are they aging then?" The passenger shifted in his seat uncomfortably.

Lucky Accident I took a rattling Ford touring car, rather against my father's vice, and started blithe on a 12 mile drive to my brother's farm. My family did not consider me a pricilic driver, but I had all sorts of confidence, in my ability to guide the jumpy little car over the rough country roads. I got on a bike about 6 miles, we hitting it at a good eirn, when I saw, too, a hole in a culvert ahead. Acting upon instinct, I swerved the car sharply over to the left, and before I had time to catch breath, I was shooting down a 60 foot embankment covered with brush and trees. A little way down, I saw the outline of a tree cane crushing thru the windfield, showering me with glass and missing the top of my head by a stingy half-inch. As the branch raked across the top of the car it caught the corner of the bicep and stopped the car. I swerved, careened, waded, very badly shaken, and I have no desire whatsoever to drive a car since.

Q—What causes a gold mark to leave black-marks on my skin? A—This is due to sulphur in the blood; it is not unusual and need cause you no alarm: Alice: Q—What causes a bad breath. And how can I correct this condition? A—This may be due to constipation, indigestion; diseased tonsils, decayed teeth, or nasal catarrh. An examination is necessary to determine the cause, and then treatment. H. J. Q—Soap seems to irritate the skin, causing it to become scaly and break out into small pimples.

They throw in corn or anything that is mouldy, that that and the chicken lose all interest in everything. If people were fed on bread and water, they probably wouldn't care whether they worked or not. I never wait until eggs are scavenge to feed for eggs: In October I begin to feed meat scraps, skim milk, keef and the fresh buckwheat, feeding the fewest times they interested in their meals. By Thanksgiving I am getting plenty of eggs—ars. Carrie Carter. Still Teasing Him (Absent-Minded Story) The night before every building on the farm buried except the house. The men fought the fire all night and our man spritiled his ankle and wanted a cane to wail with. They hurried out with a cane and scrubbed out with a cane and umbrella because it looked like rain. It did rain, but I held up the cane and dragged the umbrella. I was still thinking of the fire and of the damage and loss—20 tons of water and 10 tons of fire but not come to until I was drenched the umbrella was no longer needed. The toks still tease me about it and that was 10 years ago. L. P. Ironing Day Hint Start your task by ironing several handkerchiefs, then put them inside at one end of the board.

Fifty players will be in the squad, and, according to Coach Douglas, that number will be cut down at the end of the second week.

Uppinget the dupe, Kid Norfolk of Baltimore knocked out Tut Jackson of the third round of their 12 round engagement here Friday. Norfolk was a little nervous when he got out of his taxi before the fight and saw the big crowd at the Gayet, but after the first round when he had soaked Tut in the ribs a couple of times, the nervousness disappeared. The knockout was a blow to the kidneys, and Tut collapsed face forward. The power behind Norfolk's blow equalled that of a sledgehammer and the handsome Mr. Tut Jackson crumpled up as if he was made of cardboard. With the confidence Norfolk displayed in this bout, he could kick Tom Gibbons and blast the hopes of dodging Jack Dempsey. Tut was knocked down six times before he decided that enough was too much. Some game boy that. After the fight, Tut was taken to the Maryland General to get his ribs put in a cast, while Norfolk shined his shoes, put his bat on at a rakish angle and armed with a big cigar called on the Afro office. Little Max Waxman, promoter of the Gayet bout was mud and fussy about the story in last week's paper of how he beat out Spedden and Rossiter for the Norfolk bout. He had a fussy doorkeeper too, so that even Leo Flynn. Norfolk's manager had a hard time getting inside before the doors opened. MILLER "BUNTED" OFF THIRD-BASE Rube Foster's Clever Move Wins Game Before 3,500 Birmingham Fans BY SOL RIVERS Birmingham, Ala., Aug. 30—Rube Foster keen witted eye saw a loop hole in the Black Barons defence Wednesday afternoon at Rickwood Park and attacked that spot to the 3rd degree, winning the game easily by a 11-5 victory. In the lining when a bunt was held down the 3rd base line and Miller came in to field it, the giants leader saw his chance, and the rest of the games had his men bent until they had bunted Miller to third and had the game in the win column. They made Miller look bad on 3rd and had to be taken off third and switched to 2nd. Wesley replaced him. Sellers tied the game up in the 7th, with a homer over the right field fence with Wesley on base but to no avail, as the Giants kept building to him, swinging the ball over the fence. The game was played on a muddy diamond and the weather still threatening causing the attendance to be cut to about 3500. Only one game was played due to the threatening weather. The Black Barons will leave tonight on a two weeks' trip thru Texas returning to Laredo Day with the Toley Bros. The Afro-America gold at all local newsstands or No. 2 Central avenue. The boys won the other game of this series from the Barons 7th and played a 1-1 tie game of 7 innings. Gardner climbed to the edge of the scoreboard to spear Sellers long drive. # MHIRT Gerdner,rf 1 4 2 3 1 Woolsey,1 5 2 3 1 Tennison,lf 4 2 3 1 McIchel,lb 1 2 3 1 Tennison,lf 2 0 1 1 Geogee,hs 4 0 1 1 Mulder,rd,2b 5 1 0 1 1 Solders,lf 4 0 1 1 Beckwith,lb 5 1 5 1 Kemp,ef 3 1 1 1 Kenyon,lf 5 1 1 1 McIchel,3b-2b 4 1 1 1 Williams,ss 4 0 2 1 McIchel,rf 4 0 0 1 Brown,c 5 2 2 1 Means,c 4 0 0 1 Jennson,bf 3 0 1 1 Jardan,p 3 0 0 1 Owen,p 3 0 1 1 Salmon,p 3 0 0 1 Philly Has Arena The Golden Gate A.

HILLDALE DROPS PAIR OF GAMES Brooklyn Royal Giants and All-Stars Take Measure Of Bolden's Team Philadelphia, Pa., August 30. For the second time this season, the Hildale Club and two defeats that included them in the short day, the Lincoln Giants turning the trick on August 5th. The Brooklyn Royal Giants started them on the road to a second double reverse by piling up a 11 to 6 score in an Eastern Colored League Game at Hildale Park, the second fray was dropped to the All-Star Club, consisting of the pick of the white pigeon of the Philadelphia Baseball Association, by a hair line margin the All-Stars nosing out on the ong end of a 2 to 1 score. After Eddie Douglass' warriors had dropped two games in a row to Bolden's League Leaders, the boys had scored with a vengeance and smeared "Script" Lee's benders all over the lot. The Giants took all kinds of liberty with everything Lee had to offer and socked out 15 safeties. "Early and often" appeared to be the stogain leader, but the new scedered rounds in the first two frames to clinch the argument they continued to pile them up and put the game on the proverbial ice in the closing rounds. Rector, the ex-Hilldale short stogain leader, "Dorsey" who also graced the Hilldale pay roll for several seasons and Wagner, the Giants short stop kicked in with two stops and throws that stopped the locats from getting within striking distance. Wagner asserted his power with two singles that drove in 3 runs. The Johnson and Johnson combination of the Hildale team featured in the fled, "Judy" pulling Hill's foul off the grandstand and screen in the George racing almost in behind second base to snare Spearman's Texas Leaguer.

Take Game Washington, D. C., Aug. 30—Eleven timely blings enabled the Washington Potomac to down the Norfolk All-Stars, 6 to 1. Clark, on the mound for the winners, held the losers to three scattered blows. New York, Aug. 29.—There will be no Dempsey-Wills contest this year—if ever. Paddy Mullins, manager of the champion, while he is still making an earnest effort to pin down Jack Kearns or to get some manner of action from the State Athletic Commission, has apparently decided that his case is practically hopeless for the present. It is almost settled that Wills will go on a fifteen-week exhibition tour through Pennsylvania, Illinois and further, points, West. As the Wills tour would not wind up until early in December, and a Dempsey-Wills contest is too big an affair to be staged indoors, it is plain that there no chance of a win until next summer. Mulins is still talking about action of some kind to bring a show-down on the part of the commission, but the chances are he will wait until Jim Croftroff serves here from the team. There is a suggestion for the promotion of a Dempsey-Wills match. After which it will be a case of go West. The Wills tour, as planned, will include exhibition contest, in which the Man Whom Dempsey Pears' "The Man Who Wins" will vertised, will take on local heavy-weights in four round workouts.

N. P.) Chicago, 18, Aug. 26, Eugene G. Brown, Indiana's bronze bower, playing through National tennis champion, ramped through three thrilling sets on the courts of the Prairie Tennis Club Saturday afternoon, and retained his title by defeating E. G. Starch, New York wonder box, champion of Philadelphia. In celebrating Smith, Brown played the most spectacular and convincing team ever witnessed on the local court. He played a winning game, and another remarkable player, and the gait of a mole of spectators opposed to him. Smith, who assisted Brown in Philadelphia, was expected to turn the trick again. Brown's fifth Saturday made the challenger former victory look like a joke. West Virginia Channel, National women's champion, of Chicago, depicted Mr. Ettie Wade, the New York phenomenon, in straight sets, 56, 64. VIRGINIA8 WIN Month doubles, this year were won by Dr. J. McGriff, of Portsmouth, Va., and Dr. E. D. Downing, Roscoe, the State State. Through default from E. G. Brown, champion singleton, and Ted Thompson, of Washington. At the time the two McGriff, Downing combination was leading, having set, the first set, won the second, and being ahead in the third. The women's doubles title was copied by Mist E. Leonard, New York, and Mrs. Lottie Wade, New York, from Mist E. Olives and C. R. Benton of E. Kent City, Mo., in E. G. Johnson and Mrs. Wade, won the played doubles championship per Dr. J. M. Theroux and Miss N. Nicollson, both of Bahimovs, 7-5, 6-4. The trophy did spectacular work in the doubles, playing both fore and back counts in an extraordinary manner. He and partner with Sashida Pang, on his ties against Miss Nicollson, and Jury. Wade commanded the back court. WELCOME LOSES TO MAY The North Jersey match was the first of the tournament. There were nine and meets, totally the outset of J. E. Willetton, Washington, by J. Ostrom, front mouth, Va., and staffs in sandles and doubles was an exciting feature of the tournament. It included a paid on the champi- ple hip game. Brown refused to pay with the New York export. Kevin was last in master player, the old champion started in to be played him of course with thiefs. The battle developed in a fight between stealth and precision on one side and intelligence and stealth on the other. The champion was blowing on the defender, the champion losing him into wizard-like coverings. In most cases it was Brown who did the playing. Much of the playing was done from the first round, but the hotel and accurate volleying carried him point after point. SATCH WINS FIRST I wish the first to receive, open, and open the door. This was double. I was in a moment coming multiple times. I could not be told the意愿. The next was to go down. Each was his way to the door. Brown took the third hand, and the lead. Shatched them and smothered game before the other was drilled two more and the last was drilled two more and the other was drilled two more. Shatched drove many of his received into the next. Brown's errors came from the family placement. The last game was ended by two double-cut games made by Shatched. The New Yorker seemed unable to command his service. That had earned him two times in the first game. As the match was over, the number of his double-cut games played, Brown depended little on his service, apparently believing it was better to beat the chair. The elimination showed to his best advantage in the second set, the poor score of 25-17, indicating the weak with which the set was punched. The situation was getting worse. The player now had to concede the match to the Hoosier and to lose faith in the computer. THIRD SET In the third and deciding set Satch fought all the way. Neither man was tired and each used all the strategy known to him. The set was replete with deuce games. Brown had started in to end it forcefully. The New Yorker decided to and fought with a deception that caused the onlooker to marvel at the playful confusion in the house in the early games. In the rules he won, Brown being forced to clash from side to side of his back count, fore and aft, to keep up with the seemingly impossible returns of the challenger. He led until the fifth game, when Satch tied him and then on then it was first one and from then the other in the lead until the 20th game had been won by Brown, and the 19.9, the ninth invasion as he jumped the set to shake hands with the defeated challenger.

NORFOLK K.O.'S TUT JACKSON Kid Norfolk, the Baltimore boy, who began his prize-ring career by taking part in battle-payouts in local areas come back home after punch travel and many lights during the past seven years of shooting by dispatching the handcams. Tud Jackson in three rounds at the Grayy Theatre on last Friday night. Savs Tut If it was not for those had ribs of mine, there would have been a night. Norfolk was at the fight between Harry Wilts and myself and know that Wilts smashed a few of my ribs. He picked on them at every opportunity. I did blame him, that sall's game, nor am I making an ability. The dead end and thats all. These ribs of mine cracked again. "I had two fights scheduled, one in Washington, D.C. with Cecil Johnson, of New York, but I will be compelled to give these fights up now owing to the fractured ribs and intend to take a few months rest." "I had two fights last week, beating up Mexico Joe Lawson, of New York, at Washington, of New York, and beamed up Young Peter Jackson on Aug. 13th, at Muncie, but. Says Norfolk; Smoking a big black cigar, Kid Norfolk accompanied by his boxing mate stroked into the Afro-American office the day after the fight looking like a prince. A discolored lip was the only mark he bore. "Tut says you "busted" up his bad rihs, and you knew they were bad." Norfolk was told. "That's all in the game," replied Norfolk. "Tut is a big boy and his face is pretty near out of reach. I could reach his stomach, however, and I hit him there—bim, the fell face forward. I never saw a knock out before where the victim fell forward on his face. When told that Skii was enroute to America, Norfolk said, "Fie's my boy, I am fighting better than I have ever found in my life. I could lift the light-buyweight title Skii holds. Besides I can't fight forever and the sooner I earn some money to put away, the better." Besides the Kid, there is a Mrs. Netfolk and an eight-year-old girl, who greeted Dad when he came home Saturday with the bacon. NEW COACH AT W. U.

Our Athletes Barred There will be no colored athletes in the police, firemen and Postal Office employees meet. You can bet your last bottom dollar on that.

The Best Semi-Professional White Baseball Team In New Jersey Sunday, September 2 (DOUBLE HEADER) MARYLAND BASEBALL PARK, WESTPORT Plenty of Good Seats New Bleacher Stands TUT JACKSON STARTED LIFE AS EXPRESSMAN Heavyweight Fighter Looks Like Overgrown Boy Ready for Society Whirl DOES NOT OWN AUTO --- Tut Jackson the light-heavyweight boxer who was defeated by Kid Nortok in the third round of a twelve-round bout at the Gayley Theatre on last Friday night, did not start out in life with the intention of battling his way to fame via the prize-ring. In fact, Tut, (chore in Washington) aged 23 years and christened James Johnson Jackson) had no definite career figured out. One thing he was certain of was, that he wanted to keep going to school. But after attending the public schools until he reached the eighth grade, he was necessary to put him out to work to assist in supporting the family which consisted principally of sisters of whom there were five. The writer found Tat at the "Thursday morning where, he was stopping with his two sparring partners, Battling Bob Lawson and Kid Frisco, both stable mates under the management of Billy Palmer. Sparring about skirts, with massive shoulders and erect carcass Tat looks like a big good-natured boy who would find more pleasure in the society of a crowd of hoppers than trying to knock the stuffing out of an opponent in the prizering. Five Spot Lures Tut Tut's first job was as driver of a furniture truck at the nunnical wage of one simpeon per day. In Tut's eyes, that was SALARY, but part of this had to go to the "old folks" so Tut's spending change was slim. Being a good driver Tut got a good salary in salary but this had to be split as usual. There one day a companion asked Tut if he wanted to make five dollars. Suddenly Tut had visions of five great big dollars all his own—to spend as he pleased. When Tut found his tongue he asked what did he have to do to win it. Fight in a battle Royal, he was told. Tut had never took part in a fight—with gloves on. He had seen the boys at the gymnasium and never had any desire to have his face pushed in by anybody's list. But five dollars? The inducement was too much. Tut went to the club that night where the fight card was being pulled off, and took his place in the ring with four other boys in the battle royal that was a part of the preliminary program. When the smoke of battle cleared away, Tut was the only man of the four left in the ring. Tut now saw visions of easy money. A few days later he was approached again to go on as a preliminary at another light; he took it and won. In two rounds. This time he pulled down fifteen bones. He took another preliminary, and won $25. Tut stopped juggling furniture now and took up boxing atto- gather. That was two years ago. From that time until he met Harry Wills last August Tut bowled over three opponents in two or three rounds. Want To Meet Wills Again He told us why. Wills defended him, and also cleared up the disagreement among the sports writer at the time as to just what punch put him out in the boat with Wills. Tut says it was his wish to punish. He wasn't conscious but just couldn't get up was the way Tut put it. Tut says he was inexperienced, fighter and didn't know anything about boxing at the times. He had always won hisights by slugging. He is now developing boxing skill. Asked if he desired to meet Wills again Tut deduced that he certainly believes that he will make a better showing now than he did last year. He did not however, boast that he could beat Wills. Tut's training program consists of about four miles of road work every morning after which he is given a rub down. He then goes to some serious work is done and from six to twelve rounds of boxing with his partners. A Girl Is Waiting Tut is unmarried, but admitted that there is "someone waiting" and not in vain. But it will not "come off" says Tut until he has salted down some more "bacon." When not in training Tut finds his chief recreation in basketball in summer, football and basketball in the winter. Football is for fencers and school he used to play in end position. Tut has no buzz wagon. He owned one, he said but got it snatched in an accident and hasn't had any desire since to own one.

This week Wills has received more votes than any three testators on his team. His tribute reached 7,200. Tom Gibbons is second with 3,200 and Firpo third with 1,600. According to the vote, the public has very little confidence in Firpo and his chance against the champion. In lining up an opponent against Tom Gibbons is given the first call with 4,500 votes. Tiger Flowers (colored) this week jumped into second place with 4,000 votes. Last week Flowers held only 700 votes and was in the finals with Jim Dellean, Harry Greb and Gene Tunney and as it now looks he will be giving Gibbons a race before many days roll by. he played at the American League Park on October 26th, and November 2nd, wilt Morehouse College and Wilbergrge University.

From a modest beginning in 1892, in this city, then known as the graveyard of race newspapers, it has progressed slowly until now, it is one of the widest and largest circulated Negro journals in the country. Ability to secure news of interest to colored people from correspondents all over the world by post and wire and the fact that this newspaper is published on Thursday instead of Wednesday like most of its competitors, has given the AFRO-AMERICAN a decided advantage. It accounts for the result that our news columns are very often a week ahead in the publication of important events. Already this paper is the largest colored weekly in its own plant with all colored employees. A new wing of the plant now under construction will house a 24-page rotary press recently purchased, with its accompanying stereotype equipment. This improvement completed by 1924 will still further increase the ability of the AFRO-AMERICAN to render public service.

It would be interesting if they could realize that in these types from the down-and-outer to the successful occupant of the high-powered automobile, they may look into the future and see themselves go by. There is the old man or woman of sixty still struggling along under the burdens of life and with nothing saved for the rainy day. There is the middle-aged man or woman with worried look and drawn features, already slaves to some mode of life that has sapped happiness and health and there is the boy, young in years, but half-burned out with excesses. Along with this procession also you will see the happy smile of the man and woman who have met each coming day heroically and rightly and who face the future as Longfellow says, "like one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him and lies down to pleasant dreams.

Despite Senator Bruce's recent settlement favoring colored staffs for colored hospitals and despite the crystallization of sentiment throughout the country that has altered to program to have a white staff at the Veteran's Hospital at Tuskegee, the State authorities have announced their intention of placing the tuberculosis hospital at Henryton for colored people in charge of a white medical and nursing staff. If, as Governor Ritchie told this paper, Dr. Cullen decided on this course because he believed colored tubercular patients would not properly obey color physicians and nurses, it would only be necessary to remind him that already and of their own free will the majority of Negro patients throughout the country are properly responding to colored doctors and nurses. We are inclined to believe that the question of jobs rather than the expressed interest in the welfare of tubercular patients is behind this decision. Who could be more solicitous for the welfare of colored patients than the colored medical profession? Somehow colored people must find a way to register a protest against this constantly growing tendency to crowd them out of every class of service except the most menial kind, even when that service is to be rendered to colored people. Superiority Buncombe The best answer to any clio chior to another is found in the among Baltimore babies rece Department of Labor. The Department found o color was responsible for the Negroes, and adds: A baby death rate above the the colored families, foreign bori very poor native whites. The lo higher the infant death rate, work out before and after child death rate. A lower the poorer families. Among the weathlier families, the twenty-six. first answer to any claim that one raiser is found in the study of the more mature babies recently made by the Labor.

The lower the father's wife infant death rate. The more mothers before and after childbirth, the higher the poorer families one baby in every wealthier families, the death rate is one. The best answer to any claim that one race is superior to another is found in the study of the death rate among Baltimore babies recently made by the U. S. Department of Labor. The Department found out that poverty and not color was responsible for the high death rate among Negroes, and adds: A baby death rate above the average was found among the colored families, foreign born Polish families, and the very poor native whites. The lower the father's wages, the higher the infant death rate. The more mothers have to work out before and after childbirth, the higher the infant death rate. Among the poorer families one baby in every six dies. Among the wealthier families, the death rate is one in every twenty-six. Among colored families with a high income, the infant death rate was as low as among the better class white families. What is true of infant death rate, is also undoubtedly true of adult death rate and educational tests. A thoughtless moron tried the other day to prove that the Negro race is inferior because some third-grade colored children did not pass as high an educational test as third grade whites. If whites, foreigners and Negroes having the same incomes were subjected to the same educational tests, little difference would be found as to ability. Put up a well-reared, well-fed, well-clothed, white boy against an undernourished, ragged, white, street gamin, and the former will win in long life or in educational Which Is You? The EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN DAY BY DAY By WM. N. JONES The Coal Situation As the AFRO-AMERICAN has warned over and over September approaches with the hard coal situation still unsettled and it looks as if we are in for another year of times high. This means for the masses of the people who buy their coal in small amounts throughout the winter much suffering and hardship. Its means death, babies and by increasing poverty and an abrupt tend to more crime and misery. Whatever may be the attitude of the operators and miners the main fault lies with the government of the land. The national official have known of the impending strike threat. have watched both miners and operators preparing for the death grip without reason, who should have known of humanity. And save for a spineless, marrowless, toothless, so-called coal commission whose main function has been to invite the disputants to a pink ten discussion of the affair, not one tinker to a tinker to avert the catastrophe. What this country needs is some actual machinery with powers similar to our courts to regulate those bailable cases, which in which the evidence depends. If by legal action our government can take a human life that has offended society; if it can enter the sanctity of the law; if the hundreds shall pay their wives in disputes; if it can settle the many civil disputes whose interest only involve the parties involved; can set aside a claim in setting a dispute that involves, as coal does, the very life, progress and comfort of hundreds of thousands of American citizens. It can readers to make use of the few remaining days to get in as large a supply of coal as possible. Color Line In Insurance The Detroit Life Insurance Company of Detroit has let it be known that wants colored beaks, not red. This should be a regard this as race prejudice, but on second thought we will have to look for another, more inclusive color line in which we never let the color line impede him much when in pursuit of the almighty dollar. The fact is there is something wrong, than race prejudice. What is it? In a study of relative colored and white vital statistics upon which insurance companies rely this study and the answer. We may as well face the fact bravely that because of other injustices involving bad housing, inequality in the distribution of income in the country and discrimination in giving opportunities of employment in all walks of life, the colored health score is slightly behind that of the whites and the proportion he is less desirable risk. The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of New York and some of the other large concerns have made a special classification of their Negro risks and charge more increases in insurance extra millions for our health deficiency. The bald fact remains that the main problem is to eradicate the basic causes of our higher death rate and in the meantime remember that there are dependable insurance men and women who will be glad to serve us. The Church And Migration In view of the many excellent discussions coming from pupils during the last few months which show the interest of our students from the South we venture to make a practical suggestion. Experience has shown that when the wrong economic and social status they do so before the church have reached them or more properly speaking before they they the church want to be of real service to them it must REACH OUT AND GET THEM BEFORE THEY GET SETTLED. The only way to do this is to establish some effective machinery. Our suggestion is that as many churches as will join the movement establish a bureau of information centrally located in the city, where it will be placed in the hands of red caps at stations and be generally distributed throughout the city. An employment bureau and a library are the main features, all of which should be free and financed as a Christian duty. In the meantime this bread thrown upon the waters may come back in increased church attendance we may find the need of the word people of the city. While other agencies should help, the police wherever colored people are found, present the most ready organization for handling migrants. Prof. Carver had just written a bulletin on the sweet potato, I had been summoned, with Prof. Carver to the office of Dr. Washington. I insisted the final proofs of this bulletin. Dr. Washington took the proofs and glanced through them. Quickly looking up he said, "What do you want?" I note, however, that you have as the title "Macon County, the Natural Home of the Sweet Potato." Why do you put the word "natural" in the subject? "Carver answered," "Because Macon County is not the home of the sweet potato." Dr. Washington asked, "Whose is the home of the sweet potato?" "Carver answered, 'It is not known.'" Dr. Washington said, "Then make Macon County its home." And it was done, and so it is. (And the name is Aloa, in Theodore's name.) WHITE PERSONNEL HENRYTON T.B.

P.) 32—What was the fate of Pharaos at Jericho, Egypt? It seems strange that a lighthouse should have been the seventh wonder but it was. Ptolemy Philadelphus, that conqueror, built the beacon of Pharos, near Alexandria, between 225 and 247 B.C, and it lasted in part, until an earthquake demolished its remains in 1377. He built a skyscraper in several stages, each stage smaller than the one beneath it, the structure was between 400 and 600 feet high. On its top was a window, it was possible for watchers to see far off ships, invisible to the maked eye. The fires at the tip could be seen from a great distance at sea, but the lighthouse and continued the lighthouse fires, but the Greeks angry at the capture of their famous beacon, sent a sage to tell the Caliph that a ship was coming to the lighthouse. He ordered the town torn down, but of course, found no treasure. The lighthouse was repaired, but storms blew it over and in 1182 a mosque was built, which was destroyed itself by an earthquake 200 years later. 32—What two Negroes assisted two of the world's greatest explorers In 1572, during Sir Francis Drake's third voyage to the American coast he became surely in need of a guide. He chose to make friends with the man who was Diego, and in whom Sir Francis noted extraordinary qualities. Diego was a hero of many battles with the French, and thus more than one occasion saved Drake's life. Drake became so much attached to Diego, that failing to perseude him Diego would have been punished a prominent river of South America for him, and wrote a special report to Queen Elizabeth, detailing Diego's wonderful fidelity, and the men who pierced the frozen solitudes of the polar regions, those of Robert E. Pearcy, who discovered the North Pole, and those of Minerva, Amngu Pearcy's crew, in this achievement of the goal of centuries, was Matthew Henson, a Negro, who witnessed the placing of the ship and stripes on the top of the world. 34—Were coed troops with General Jackson at New Orleans in 1812? 35—What Southern newspaper were they? 36—What were the first colored regiments organized for service in the Civil War?

A highly intelligent clerk in one of the most numerous branches of the government informs me that he cannot recall a single Negro appointee in that department for the past twenty years. The same process of information going on in the various branches of the government. The end is not hard to predict. The Negroes entered the service a generation ago are gradually falling out by death, resignation and retirement. Any stream with out-let without in-take will sign run dry. The Negroes in the Civil Service have reflected as much credit upon the race as any group of workers in any other field. In intelligence, industry, fidelity and efficiency they have measured up to the most rigid and exacting overtime standard. Notwithstanding the restrictions of prejudice a number have been promoted to respectable levels and rank high in the estimation of the service. Wyatt Archer may be cited as a typical insurer. He entered the service from Virginia fifty-two years ago. Although his never failing course, industry and devotion to duty, he was promoted from one rank to another and in the course of his coveted position from which he was with dignity and honor. was. But at the present trend and rate of things the Negro government clerk will be a thing of the past like the memory of Negro Congressmen in the paimy days of long ago. Power and power Negroes are entering the higher places in the government. Presidential appointment may only off-set it to be found in the number of laborers and messengers who are appointed by white politicians for political and personal reasons. A caste system is developing in the Federal service under our very quickly. Roughly speaking the classified service will coincide with the color line. Only unfortunate white men temporarily embarrassed will be far below that level, and only an occasional colored man the whiteness beneficiary of political expedition will be found above it. The race must bestle itself to avoid this foreseen fate. Every consideration of justice loyalty and fair play favors the Negro in this contention. The Congress of the United States fixes the rules and regulations for entrance upon the civil service. It is indeed a poor sportsman who will not play the game according to the rules when he himself has the regulation of the rule. All Americans of the requisite qualifications are invited to compete for clerical positions with absurd segregated of race and color. The Negro meets the Tenth Circuit of race and color. With American hope of fair play stand for such foul procedure? If the applicant must file a photograph it is equivalent to the declaration that no Negro need apply. When Theodore Roosevelt was Civil Service Commissioner, he insisted that every applicant should have a square deal. But at present the Federal Government is cheating the Negro out of hard-earned positions in the service just as effectively as the South is cheating him out of his rights under the Constitution. Will the New England conscience of President Coulde stand for such governmental robbery? Will Congress condone such shameless cheating? Will the public congrue such cruelness. Forty years ago the clerical places under the government were filled by corrupt political appointments. The aroused conscience of the nation demanded the enactment of a law to prevent corruption. Our fundamental appeal is to the conscience of the nation. The American sense of fair play has never failed when the issue has been squirrelly presented to the public. It has been up to Coolidge to Congress to the conscience of the nation. Tuskegee Hospital Up To Coolidge The representatives of the American Medical Association are handling the hospital issue with courage and good sense. They have put the question of a colored personnel squarely up to President Coolidge. the new Administration has committed itself to carry out the policies of its predecessor, which on this point was positive and specific. The suggestion of Director Hines for a mixed staff is unworkable in the very nature of the circumstances. In the first place, a mixed staff is not contemplated, but white management with colored subordinates. The inflamed mind of the local whites to which this scheme defies, dooms such experiment to failure from the very start. Efficient administration demands a one-minded staff. The color scheme is wholly immaterial provided there is a meeting of the minds and focussing of faculties on the task. The overall sentiment of the local whites is impossible such physical approach to the races. Just as it is deemed impossible to mix the patients indiscriminately in Alabama, it is equally difficult to mix the operative personnel. The Veteran's Bureau is merely compounding trouble for itself by such hopeless experiment, while the Negro physicians who accept it are merely placing their The only practical solution is for the Administration to follow out the policy of President Harding for a complete Negro personnel to be immediately installed. This policy should be appointed from the Medical Department of the government who should exercise such supervision as is usually involved in that function. This method is in harmony with approved hospital management, and should be used in the Negro staff. The Freedmen's Hospital at Washington, D. C. is operated on this basis. This institution is rated as class "A" by the highest medic authority. or Charles Wesley, of the Department of History, calls my attention to the organization "T. of the State of the United States, 1794," of the organization "This organization was not an exam of the Negro Sanhedrin), but it indicates that the abolitionists realized it as shown he named the Negro's fight for freedom.

To increase the zeal and efficiency of the individual societies by advice and encouragement, and 2. To take upon itself the chief responsibility in regard to national affairs. The proverb truly says that there is nothing new under the sun. We merely adapt ancient agencies to meet new conditions. The task of the abolitionists was comparatively a simple one as related to the complex problems with which we now have to deal were concerned in removing a legalized colony into law. We must defend a complexus of evils firmly or loosely lodged in the people. You may abolish slavery by the stroke of a pen, but race prejudice is too deeply rooted for that. What was done in olden times was done for our example. We must derive from the aptitude Struggle as well as from all other aspects of our lives that features a hard-earned day of problems. The All-Race Conference is in harmony with the universally approved method of righting the wrongs of an aggrieved class.
