TEXAS NAACP BALKS UNFAIR COURT TRIAL Local Branch Secures Fourth Trial For Man Believed Innocent COURT FIRST GAVE OUT DEATH PENALTY New York—Luther Collins, arrested in January, 1922, charged with criminal assault upon Mrytle Davis, a white woman in Houston, Texas, has been granted a fourth trial, according to announcement made today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Upon being tried the first time in Harris County, Texas, Collins was given the death penalty. The Houston branch of the N. A. A. C. p. raised funds for the employment of investigators and lawyers and succeeded in securing evidence casting grave doubt upon Collins' guilt. A brief trial of persecution which resulted in a mistrial, eight jurors standing for acquittal and four for a light penalty. When the jury could not agree, it was dismissed by the Judge. Subsequently, Collins was tried again in Fort Bend, County on a change of venue and was sentenced to 99 years in the penitentiary. The Houston Branch took an appeal from this decision to the Court of Criminal Appeals which court rendered a decision in June reverting the conviction and remanding the case for retrial because in the admission of certain testimony. The Court of Criminal Appeals held in its opinion that the trial court erred in permitting Officer Reed to testify that he "arrested the defendant because he answered the description of the Negro we had orders to pick up for the offense of criminal assault on a white girl." Sister Sue has have been permitted by the trial court, so the higher court's ruling held. This reversal carries the case over until the fall and it is felt that Collins will be freed either upon being brought to trial or through failure of the.State to continue prosecution. The magnificent defense of Collins by the Houston Branch has had a profound effect upon the court. It has convinced the ruling that Negroes cannot longer be railroaded to death with impunity. The Houston-Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and the colored citizens of Houston have financed the defense from beginning to end, at no time calling upon the Houston Office for aid.

Piteously, Probably Violated Richmond, Va.—Jacob Heater, white, a rebel soldier now in the soldiers home has written a letter to a local paper in the effort to ease his conscience of wrongs committed against slaves during the civil war. Repentent for shooting a boy, who died under torture, and a girl wha was probably visiated by the rebel general himself, Heater, thinking to lessen the scorch of the blue blazes in the hereafter, seeks now 60 years afterwards to square himself with outraged humanity. "What we wish to write about is what we would rather forget. In my declining days I never discuss it; but wish to say, it's the only wrong ever did when I was a child. And then I sleep my last sleep; it leaves a remorse of compulsive that only death can obliterate. Invade Pennsylvania In 1863, when the Army of Northern Virginia, invaded Pennsylvania, it fell to my lot to be sent out in the country to forage for my company by order of Gen. Early. My first interview was with an old Irish woman, who told me in a few minutes all she knew of her neighbor. "She pointed in the direction of a large farm house and said they had some Negroes concealed on the farm. The name of the people was "Rentro," there being two families of the same name living in the same community. A first house was Negro boy and a girl. The girl was locked in a room. The boy was in a large barrel. They both told a plain story. Bor Was. Free The boy said his mother had free papers and therefore he was free; the girl said she belonged to Miss Anne Thompson, of Martinsburg, Va. I took them both to Gen. Early's headquarters and turned them over. He directed me to turn them over to Major Snodgrass, and report back to his tent, which was only a few miles above York.

WHITES BATTLE FOR $200,000 TUCKER ESTATE Court Is Asked To Adjudge Oklahoma Oil Man In ATTORNEYS OUTWIT WHITE GUARDIANS Hide Oil Man In Chicago And Force Whites To Release Property Muskogee, Oklahoma, (Staff Correspondence)— "We hate the Negro, but we love his money." This in substance is the motto of a group of white people, trying to get control of the $200,000 share of black Luther Tucker, a Creek freedman who became of age last month. Tucker received an allotment of some 160 acres of U. S. farm lands. Oil was discovered, and the value is now placed at $125,000. His income is thought to be from fifteen twenty-five dollars a year; and he has accumulated personal property valued at $75,000. 16 Oil Wells In the estate of Tucker, producing oil wells, several arms and valuable city property. Under Oklahoma law, white guardians had charge of the estate until Tucker became of age. Then the proper court would come to his assistance. Frequently, however, the court judges the native incompetent to handle his own property and appoints the white guardians as trustees. In this way whites make a big slice of money off Negroes in commissions. Several days before Tucker became of age, he was taken to Louis, where he was to get into jurisdiction of the Oklahoma state courts. The white guardians, it is believed, were trying to get themselves appointed trustees. Meantime, his wife, whom he had been induced to marry before he became of age, fled suit for divorce, and half his property. She also asked injunction to prevent him disposing of his property in case he was asked to appoint guardians. This was also alleged to be the work of the guardians. Wife And Grafters Outwitted Tucker outwitted his wife and the guardians by employing the big law firm of Wesley, Atkins and Chandler, race attorneys, guaranteeing them $5,000 fee. They took Tucker from Louisville, Ky., ten days before he became of age and kept him in court until he arrived on Montreal, Canada, dodging service of any papers by Oklahoma court officials. As soon as he became of age, he appointed Mack Jackson, his uncle, his mother, Daisy Rowe, and friend, P. A. Lewis, as trustees, conveyed his property, convinced him of his property of attorney over to his colored lawyers. Mr. Lewis, who is wealthy, is said to have advised colored attorneys. Lawyers Get Bps Tucker's lawyers, Wesley, Atkins and Chandler, who have made a reputation of salvaging Negro property from white trustees, went back touskagee and to turn the Tucker property over to them. The court turned over the real property, but left the $75,000 personal property in the hands of the white guardian. The attorneys went into the United States Court and nudied a suit for $25,000 damages against the county judge, and the white guardians for refusal to turn the property over to Tucker hidden in Chicago where no papers can be served on him.

ALUMNI PLAN TO PICKET HOWARD UNIV. UNLESS PRESIDENT DURKEE RESIGNS General Alumni Association Under President George Frazier Miller Sends Out Members To Arouse Alumni In All Parts Of The Country Durkee Must Go Washington, D. C.—Howard University General Alumni Association announced completion of a program aiming to effect removal of Dr. J. Stanley Dorkee from the presidency of the local institution. The alumni are meeting regularly in the summer months in preparation for a pikeletting campaign, it was stated, to be conducted in the university in September. It is considered likely that the entire matter will be thrashed out in congressional investigation. Professor Miller, of Brooklyn, president of the general association of alumni together with the university, submitted a bill of complaint against the university administration, attacking principally Dr. Dorkee's sent several members into northern and western states to interview and secure support of sentors and congressmen for After several public meetings, Dr. William A. Sinclair, of Chicago, succeeded in securing endorsement of the alumni program from alumni bodies in New York and Boston, which formerly supported the university administration. In the west he has received pledges or cooperation from alumni bodies in Milwaukee and Chicago. DURKEEISM AND HOWARD UNI VERSTYX By Alumnus When Dr. Durkee declared that only a handful of alumni demanded his resignation, he did as muchuch as the press so the alumni would cry for his own dethriment. Throughout the country, the Howard Alumni hooled to the trustees, identifying his resignation. If the insistence of the alumni will spell his departure, the trustees ought to begin now in the whole history of Howard University, the alumni have never been so solidly united on a proposition as on their demand for Dr. Durkee's resig- Case So Strong Educational Standards Measured by exacting educational standards, Dr. Durkee has made a change in the college's history has been thrown back just seven years, for nothing that Dr. Durkee did for the college was considered unfair. The college work was put right back to its pre-Durkee status. The expert's report virtually says that the trustees have repudiated the plans and the trustees, by approving the expert's findings and recommendations, have openly repudiated what they have done, including that these columns have printed had the fatal punch in it that the trustees' approval of the expert's report has had. Accept Failure The trustees have accepted as a failure the educational scheme to which Dr. Durkee is a member. No new plan was substituted for Dr. Durkee's romantic scheme. The recommendation to the college back to the plan which Dr. Durkee changed. The trustees, in their willingness to extricate Dr. Durkee from his overwhelming challenges and him, their action means that they openly acknowledge the failure of Dr. Durkee's scheme, and are now willing to try him out on the scheme which he found in Howard and Howard. Changes Names The unsuspecting reader must not be baffled by names. When Dr. Durkee blew into Howard University, the organization has had to change its name to a Teachers' College. The expert changes these names respectively to College of Liberal Arts and College of Education. The aims of these two colleges were precisely identical with the aims of the expert. The accomplishment, however, of such alms was as difficult as it will be now. Last week's book, *Broke Up Durkee* explains the expert merely broke up Dr. Durkee's junior and senior college idea, declaring that it could not work, and bursary. If Dr. Durkee can stand this abject humiliation, he pride must be frozen. To more hopeful eyes must than the writer's it begins to look as though Dr. Durkee is visualizing the end of his joy-riding as a college president. As the senator is ordered to help the wreak vengeance on the property, Dr. Durkee is determined to satisfy old grudges are he departs. Some of his foes, whom he has not been able to reach by "pension," he has removed by economy, but there are a few others. No Hope Of Success It is somewhat queer that Dr. Durkee would want to remain when there is no reasonable hope of his succeeding. He would abandon discernment than that he has lost the confidence of the people whom he is supposed to succeed. He would remove another field is the only proper course open to him. Dr. McKenzie realized that the proper thing for him to do was to make a wonderful record as a campaigner for funds, but the had destroyed his influence. Subborn Disposition Dr. Durkee's disposition gives him an entirely different point of view. He maintains that only a few of the alumni want him to resign and not be his resignation. He will find, of course, that the alumni are strongly opposed to him. Until he is convinced of this, he will not accept, severely on his alumni argument. Trustees Backward So far as the trustees are concerned, they are not likely to take their initiative in requesting the nomination of the Board of Trustees. The other members are his colleagues. The initiative in this matter would be to nominate his resignation, giving his colleagues an option in the matter. His board is not any closer to him than the Fisk board was not any closer to him not initiate the resignation of its president. There was only one course for the president to Ridiculous Things It so happens that the Howard Alumni throughout the country are insisting that Dr. Durkee resign. At the same time, the university is moldily behind Dr. Durkee, thighpity they are clearly repudiating him. Mepwhile Dr. Durkee is doing all sorts of ridiculous things to the college, not satisfied with making Howard ridiculous, for seven years, the president is about to give American educators another hearty laugh. He is not satisfied with the dean of the College of Liberal Arts a present of two ornamental deeds for next year. Of course, he knows that it is not just the proper thing for the time being he gets relief. Against Cook And Miller His greatest ambition has been to get rid of Deans Cook and Miller, Banquo's ghost to be present in these two deans. He began working on both, as soon as he became accustomed to his pew title. He worked at the office, and finally drove him off the campus, but he could not discourage our little friend into a resignation. The novel thought of a pension seemed much a howl was made about the manner in which the retirement was to be made that temporarily this scheme failed. Dean Kelly Miller has been another hard nut to crack. One reason for bisecting the college was to eliminate Dean Miller. This did not go well, and he had to high to resist Dean Miller the thought of making him the publicity agent had some attraction. It looked as though Dean Miller had been the troubled president of his presence. This plan was smashed, so Dean Miller has been retained as a dean-professor, with the rank of a Fraternity Talk Wilberforce Training School If we mistake not, the position of Prof. Alonzo Brown he filled in as the president of Wilberforce University, who recently graduated work at Howard. Wilberforce seems to be the training-school for Howard professors, so such an appointment is in harmony with the present policy. All Must Be Returned It is generally understood that Prof. Lochard will be succeeded, but Prof. Brown the president, reached the writer. The work in French can hardly be taken care of properly without another instructor. The reader is advised to watch for an appointment, unless Prof. Loachard is reinstated. There is a strong probability that an assistant professor will be reinstated, unless Durkee is willing to defy Congress. Just Parker There is yet a missing link in the Howard University-Parker negotiations. When Dr. Justs tenure was hanging in a balance, an effort was made to secure the services of Mr. Charles Parker, whose school is in botany and teaching a career him to a college professor. It is hardly probable that Mr. Parker will accept a professor's privilege, but privileges that will make his position attractive. If Dr. Just is not to go with the next batch retired for "economic" reasons, high schools can head the department of biology. Howard University can hardly look honest people in the face, if the "economic" program, breaks down. Rumor Persistent Persistent rumor says that the appointment has been made, but the facts kept under cover. These articles are worrying Dr. Durkee, so he can give them away, chances of giving out information that will embarrass him. No one can blame him for this. We can never, however, to his Parker matter in mind, so that if it is reported in the fall, it will not be a surprise. *Vacation Necessary* In fact, it is possible to reveal a number of interesting matters which lie concealed now. Dr. Durkee became so exhausted as a result of his administrative tasks that he had to break away reluctantly before firing more professors. Then, too, these four dismissals are causing Mr. Durkee to embarrass administration that a vacation became inevitable. More WorriesAhead Other worries in the fall are in store for Dr. Durkee, if he insists upon retaining the presidency, not lessening picketing of his university. No compromises can be effected between the alumni and Dr. Durkee. Only his resignation will satter them, and made out their assault. Durkee Enfst Sax Alumni Their first grievance is that Dr. Durkee is conspicuously unfit for his position. He has neither the training, nor the education to preside over university. He was trained especially for the ministry, giving about six years of his training to elocation, an art, which is somewhat of a thought with a probation of words. He was pastor of a Baptist church in Roxbury, Mass, and pastor of a Congregational church in Mass. Pasteur- Educator. In neither of these churches was he required. In any way, to perform duties identical to those of an educator. In fact, there is no appreciable similarity between pastoring a church, and administering a university, with such units as the college, medical school, law school, and theological Ought To Teach Religion Ought Harry Durkee been brought to Howard as a professor in the theological school, there might have been some justification for the action, and he might have learned from his experience of time, to head the School of Religion, or similar institution. There was no justification, based on logic, precedent, or chance, for the trustees to take in transforming Dr. Durkee into an educator by giving him the title. In the final analysis, the trustees are going to this heist at Howard than Dr. Durkee. Suburban Baston Another noteworthy fact is that Dr. Durkee's pastorates had been suburban and therefore away from contact with colored people. Boxer, a former member of Boston, not Boston "proper." Campello is a suburb of Burckton. His Roxbury church was in a community which did not have many black members. The chances are that he did not have any colored communicants. Aristogatic Suburb Campello is an aristocratic suburb, in which colored people are not likely to be found, except as domestics. in the town of Brockton, the market district is not one-shall the colored population of Washington. It is a great shoe centre, so that the colored people there are likely to be factory hands, hardly common in the fashionable Campello church. Out Of His Class The肘 point is, that Dr. Durkee was unacquainted with pedagogy, and with colored people, but accepted a position which required a tenure of hostel. He was called to Washington to head a colored university. Suppose a colored physician of Atlanta, Ga., was suddenly called to Boston, Maas, to head the New York Medical School, what would be his hope of success? By the assistance of his subordinates, he might learn his job, but his chances of success would be slim: for he would be in an entire room of people, with whom he had not been closely associated. Two Sources. Obviously, Dr. Durkee had to be guided by the internal and external. He realized that his weaknesses would be more easily discoverable if he depended solely upon his subordinates. He elected to go to the outside for assistance, finding one of his trustees eager to guide him, and also finding a certain influence hostile to the higher education of Negroes ready to lead him. Thetee was not an educator; the other was an educator well acquainted with education. Dostroy A. B. Degree **DESTROY A. B. DEGREE** Hostess at work for some time to destroy the A. B. degree at Howard University. The reason is plain. The southern white man in the south will not address Colonel in the south called Colonel Boss—anything but "MISTER." The colored woman never has a "Miss" or "Mrs." prefixed to her name. The same feeling is held towards the A. B. degree. It is considered the most coveted of all degrees, because it is the traditional college degree. No objection raised to the degree. The degree are not expected to wear the A. B. DEGREE. Defects Many Students One hopeful effect of Dr. Durkee's dead and buried schmee was in work in such a way as to deflect as many candidates as possible from the purely college work. Since every feature of the scheme died, no seri- Dr. Durkee, however, is not interested in the scheme, and really did not understand the scheme. He accepted it in good faith and tried to pass it off on his behalf. School of Education What the old scheme did not accomplish, the new one will, unless our readers are on the start. If all students are forced into the College of Education, candidates for the pure A. B. degree will be appreciably diminished. If students are not come to light yet, it is to require all students in the College of Liberal Arts, who are preparing as teachers, to register in the School of Education. Danger Shown In last week's article, the danger of this requirement was discussed. This means that henceforth the students in the College of Liberal Arts do not have the option for medicine, law, and theology. Later, they will enter one of these professional schools and upon graduation, take a professional degree, which will swallow up the college degree, but not the name. After this name, merely the M. D. The lawyer and minister follow the same practice. College Of Arta The only way to defeat this plan is to insist upon the College of Liberal Arts for all undergraduate work. It is important that the College of Education as an undergraduate school. All colleges offering professional work must be accredited by the School of Education should not exist as an undergraduate unit. Some of the best minds in the College of Liberal Arts should go on to towards teaching. There is no way of better preparation in content courses than is given by the College of Liberal Arts. The A. B course upon to prospective teachers is required. College Work Damaged With Dean Miller on the Ornamental Rail, and professors frightened of the terrible big stick, self-esteem and Reasons," there is possibility of damage to the college work next year. We hope that when the "fireworks" are lighted in the fall, Dean Miller will no longer no matter who is dean, there must not be any acceptance of the proposition that all students preparing to become teachers must enroll in the College of Education. This move must be followed closely. Looking For Resignation. The rightful place of the College of Education is among the professional schools. There it will be effective, if it has the right kind of experience, where it will be troublesome. Next week's article will stress additional grievances of the alumni, who are determined to rescue their families and hopeful hearts are waiting for the announcement of Dr. Durkee's resignation. WHITE LAW HOTEL Washington, D. C.—A com- pany jury Monday ordered das- Bostick, 27 years, of 15 D street, sore on the principal, and Clifton Sampson, 19 years, of 15 G street, southwest, of an accessory, in connection with the death of James Robinson, 26 years, of 613 F St. southwest. The verdict of the coroner's jury was that James Robinson came to his death at the Emergency Hospital on July 11, from a gunbear wound due to a bullet fired from a vehicle held in the hands of James Bostick. The fatal shooting occurred about 12:30 last Saturday morning in the yard at 165 G street, southwestern of the Emergency Hospital in the southwestern Moses Dyson, also of 165 G street, where he was operated upon. He died at the hospital Saturday night at $5.50 about two hours before the attack. Sample as the man who had shot. The testimony at the inquiry showed that while a party was in progress in apartment 3 at 165 G street, southwestern, the trio got in the car and went to Negroes from South Carolina any good, both of the men who held for the killing being from South Carolina. The car into the yard when the argument is said to have continued. James Robinson is said to have drawn a knife and lifted his hand as if to strike. Bettick is said to have then fired the Sample Brought In Two hours before his death, Llewis Holmes of the Fourth prescripted, Robinson told him and Detective Nerzgan Jong Jongs that he had shot him. A few minutes later, Sample was brought into the room and Robinson positively identified him. Llewis, Holmes and that he had ably die and that if this did not shoot him, he did not want him to say he did. He then replied, titified Llewis. Holmes, "I hope God did not ably die" and if that man did not shoot me. Blanche Smith, of 641 half southwest, who talked with Robinson before he was removed to the hospital, testified that he had told her that Clifton Sample had shot Exewitnesses Eyewitnesses, however, tended that the shooting was done by Bostick. Neither Bostick nor sample took the stand in their defense. Poles say that they were not present when the shooting told them that Bostick did the shooting and that he pointed out them the house. The police said that Monday morning before the incident Sample was represented at the request by Attorney J.R. Hasten. CONVICTED OF FRAUD Ralph Bott was convicted in Criminal Court.

"We have found the best educated color man available for the position. Dr. Wood is one of the colored men of the country. He comes to Baltimore paramedicated by local police officers, and is fully capable of handling the situation. The book took its making its selection—seven months. Dr. Wood has the best references in the country from both people, both races and races. The School Board feels Baltimore is lucky in obtaining his Unknown Here As a matter of fact, "Dr. Wood is merely unknown to all schoolmen of color in印第安纳州, Washington, Connecticut, New York, indeed, everywhere, he is entirely unknown, yet, a man could harden his mind to his profession it medicine, theology, teaching or bookbinding—without being so "wasting him" as to be known at last, by name among his confer- Without Experience As a matter of fact, this unknown person cannot be "fully capable of handling the situation" when he no longer is absentee. He can certainly provide a nature in the administration of any city system of public schools. Rural Kentucky is not the state of Baltimore. In the inspired state of Indiana, it is similarly made as creditable possible; there is no mention of his having any experience whatsoever in city school administration. Best References As a matter of fact, there is fundamental disagreement of opinion to what constitutes "the best reference" of both the white and colored races. It all depends upon the point of view and the point of view of the diametrical opposite to that of the Baltimore Negro. If our educators of color do not even know "Dr. Wood by name" makes no except of a literature. And how is it possible for him to have "the best references" from education of color. Who on earth would have him as an amphibian? Are they Negroes of the Parole Renon type who bend the pregnant hinges of the knee to the palm of his hand? And pray, what nationally known educators of the white company stand sponsor for "Dr. Wood" in not educator bruises but not educator bruises. Schools Named As a matter of fact, the only institutions where this person is aligned to have studied something are High School, thsagow, Ky. State Normal School, Frankfort K. Pekin Norton University, Sheldon Bekstein Norton University, Shelby County, Ky. Jampton Normal & Agricultural Institute Hampston Institute Of these institutions, only one has anything like a national reputation, and at that one, the "Dr." spent, we wean Hampton Academy from Baltimore and of Baltimore know where and what Hampton is—essentially a school of manual arts, operating under distinctly Southern conditions. The school is located at School at Frankfort, Ky., does not take rank with our colored normal school here in Baltimore, no matter whether they call the principal, President in Kentucky or not. The school is not to be mentioned, in the same breath with the Doughlass High School of Baltimore; it hasn't even put this Glossy on our map. And we are not to be mentioned, in the same breath with the University of Sheboyg County. Of course, we all realize what the so-called Negro universities of the South in general are. But, we don't call them Negro schools, nor less than our elementary schools. It was then, from this Eckstein Norton University that "Dr. Wood spent his master's degree. So she put "Dr. Wood, but, where, O where did "Dr. Wood come to Yale, at Columbia, at Chla Call VErnon 6016 cago? at Harvard? at Oxford? Alas! knows it was at none of these institutions, at no high grade institution, and probably nowhere else. Perhaps 90 someones on the monel gave it to him—instead of Mr. No Higher Learning As a mate of fact, in the institutional peregrinations of "Dr. Wood, it doth appear that nowhere else has a man of the masters of learning—we mean the higher learning. For there are none at Hampton; and there are absolutely none at any of the institutions—from the colored high school to the college at Norton University of Shelby County, Ky. Ergo: who can those white educators be that sponsor Dr. Wood for the superintendency of our school? And there to sponsor the sponsors? As Bert Williams would say, NOBODY! Eckstein-Norton University As a matter of fact, this person from the Eckstein Norton University of Shelby County, Kyr., cannot be "the best educated colored man available." Because the public schools of Baltimore contain a dozen men (not even to mention the women!) any one of whom has had a more thorough general education and a better professional training than the "Dr." As a matter of good taste, we will not mention names, but they can be rated off readily by almost anybody on any Baltimore street corner. What shall it profit a Baltimore school man of color to expend time and energy and hard-earned cash perfecting his education and his professional equipment when a person altogether his inferior educationally and professionally is set over him and his colleagues to "handle" the situation as supervisor of all the colored schools at $4,200 per annum? So far as professional advancement within the service is concerned, it were better for him, and the likes of him to play casino or drink the nearest thing to beer he can get or follow the flapper than to attend Chicago, Harvard, and Columbia Summer Schools year after year—and cheaper! People Dissatisfied As a matter of fact, the colored people of Baltimore feel that the best is nude too good for their childrens, and they have the School Commissioners go to Timbuctoo. If need be, to get the best equipped Negro educator anywhere available for the headship of our school, but they are emphatically not willing to have the School Commissioners go all the way to Kenyan schools, to be freshly and absolutely inferior in education, in professional training, and in professional experience and contact to a dozen or more of our local community. Our stomachs are: not filled by empty words either—such as "outstanding," "best," "educated," "untrammed," "beneath" or that—Acting Superintendent Weiglein (who is personally responsible for this astounding outcome), has deliberately sought a boss to take over the job of boss Negro? If so, we hope he won't act much longer—not for us. We wonder how jerry would like to be Jew over his superior brethren—he rabbls, pawn brokers, or what not. At any rate, we colored folks don't like it one bit. Agd that's. What We Want As a matter of fact, "Dr. Wood is 'unrammeled by local prejudice' if we talk about Baltimore but knows just as about Baltimore that he knows—or wants to know—about him. The crucial point is that his life and training in Training have given him to cringe before the prejudice of the cracker Americanus. And that's what we most earnestly and deeply want. We want an educator and school administrator of the very highest grade and quality, with large practical experience, and with excellent management, who will hold his head erect and wisely and resolutely safeguarding and promoting the interest of our students of Baltimore we must for such a man, let us actually get that type of man: if his reputation is so great, his success may be the pass word for Negro schools in rural Kentucky, but we don't like it, don't use it, and don't have it in the great city. As a matter of fact, the mountain is in labor for seven long months and lo; it has brought forth a very wee mouse. Take heed, we feed A. B. Budd, D. D.

FIGHT WILLIAMS IN VIRGIN ISLANDS American Governor Again Dissolves Colonist Council "Governor Williams again dissolved the St. Crox, Virgin Islands Colonial Council, upon the ground that they refused to recognize the defendant's claim to seat in the substance of a cablegraph receiver today by the American Civil Liberties Union. The defendant is to seat A. E. Stakeman, a lawyer and judge of the St. Crox Police Court, and one Armstrong, two of the Governor's refusal upon an act of Congress passed in July, 1821, which states that only citizens of the United States may be eligible as Council members. The dissolution of the Council-by the Governor, places the government machinery of the islands in charge. "Stakeman failed to acquire citizenship, in either the United States or Canada, and was announced his allegiance to Denmark, in order to acquire 'status' for his appointment to the Colonial Council, appointed by the American Civil Liberties Union from Government authorities. The official government ruling, defining the status of Stakeman and others, is being sought by the American and other organizations interested in the welfare of the 'Virgin Islands.'

BOARD GETS PROTEST FROM DR. HUGNES Not Unkind In His Criticism He Says But Dares To Be Frank COLORED SCHOOLS GET INFERIOR SERVICE High School And Appointment Of New Supervisor Are Cited The School Board received this letter from Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, director of the Bureau of Interior Work in the M. E. Church, with offices in Philadelphia: Dr. Hughes protests the board's policy in appointing a new superintendent of the high school, under Principal Mason Hawkins. He says: For business reasons, I live in the city of Philadelphia, but Baltimore is my home. For seven years I was pastor of Sharp Street Memorial Methodist Church, corner Dolphin and Eating Streets. I am a tax-payer in Baltimore, and expect to live there again. My daughter from Baltimore Teacheur Training School last year. Under these circumstances, I feel free to register what I know is the nature of many of our best citizens. I have no desire to be unkind in my criticisms, but I am during to be perfectly frank Sorlous Mlsglyhigs No Baltimorean, of color, can observe the public school life if he does not have serious misgivings about the policy of the School Board in respect to the education of the Negro youth of the city. When I served as the pastor of Sharp Street Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church, Dr. J. K. Moore, a professor of our high school. Under his leadership, a faculty was employed, and a school spirit developed. We were more High School rank with Washington, D. C., St. Louis, Mo., and others of similar background and going of many of the best qualified teachers we have in our race group has been the order. I do not know who gave order, but I do know who suffer. Very Good Teachers Our high school has some very good teachers now, but it matters of common reason that those who are diligent students are at the same time among the most unhappy. They are surely not in service because they have shown that interest which our population and educational demands warrants. They have lost a score of teachers whose continuance in service would have been greatly to our advantage is the regressiveness of our parents. They have gone notwithstanding the fact that Baltimore were genuinely hospitable, and not of these who to their liking that they purchased homes here. They have gone to other fields and done great service. Why did they No Immediate Beller The pathetic thing about the entire situation is that there seems to be no immediate relief for the students, which upon the face of things proposes for us inferior service. A comparison will show us less efficient and spirited than the large cities of North Carolina, Texas or Oklahoma. The Baltimore Sun of July 10th, announces the selection of the school's school secretary. The published account of this gentleman's scholastic attainments do not encourage us to expect, the high order of education, of Baltimore deserve. Why Select? Why does the School Board select a supervisor whose education and experience has been in the state where there is not an accredited Negro College, and so far as we are, are informed to be nized and "standard" by our northern colleges, to which we are sending our graduates? We have a very fine high school education (politics); as we MOVE in next shall we not also MOVE UP!

CHICAGOANS PLAN MONSTER EXCURSION Actor Former Baltimorean, Writes Of Outing In Wisconsin 65 Miles Away Chicago.—Capital has founded a summer resort along the lines of Atlantic City in Wisconsin, 65 miles from Chicago. The resort is called Lake Ivanhoe. It is modeled along modern lines, having its own electric plant and other necessary facilities. A pavilion erected at the cost of $25,000 houses a spacious dance hall. Fishing, surf bathing, horseback riding, and motorizing are among the many pleasures in which it is possible for patrons to inhabit.

The winner will be named Miss Ivanhoe, and will be sent to Atlantic City to entrain a group of America to be bestowed on the most beautiful colored girl in the country. REGENT Vaudeville has supplanted the usual "tab" shows here for the week. Monday afternoon's crowd showed their appreciation from the moment "Baby" and Barbie All romped on the "ace" position until the closer of Jenkins and Jenkins. The Alls are a personable painter to look for in the audience, a ability to sell their stuff to receptive buyers. All, whom we understand is a brother of the sheikhish appearing Abdah Al, seen here often this season has all of the Ali family's looks and is a hoofer of the same degree of skillfulness a the brother. "Baby" All was obliged to give a sextette of hows and to report a first performance of the popular with her second. The pain finished with a "charleston" that the audience didn't ever seem to get enough of. Olga McPherson, always a clever artist, monned and crooned some "indigo" numbers that also secured her "big league" standing with the buyers. Miss McPherson's monologue is true to the type she portrays and should get her a second where. It did on Monday anyway. Mason and Henderson, another mixed double did about twelve minutes of song and "pater" in the "trey" position that sent them to the top of the class. Even the ancient saws about the "climate" and the ampersand are acceptable and gathered as many lengths as the most modern quills could. The foregoing is not written as a reflection on the act, for their business is entertaining, and if the old stuff "gets em", why not give it to them? The ability of Jenkins and the ampersand to present would be almost superfluous. The pair is a standard turn with a "wow" of a finish. Teneroon Club The Tennessean Jubilee Singers appeared last Sunday, a week, at the Henryton Hospital. They report the patients and staff as being delighted with their singing. The expressions of approval are many, and the 5th class artists appear at the Seventh Day Adventist Church at Harlem Avenue and Dolphin Street.

Charleston Leads Eastern League Batters Babe Wilson Wilson Is 8 Points Behind; 9 Sox Are In The 300 Class Apparently the managerial duties are resting lightly upon the shoulders of Oscar Charleston, manager of the Harrisburg Glants, who at the present time are topping the list in the Eastern circuit. Aside from keeping his club, Oscar has run the doughty field leader of Colonel Sherlock's Makers, has clouted the combined offerings for the league hurlers for a 455 mark that stands out like a beacon for the rest of the players to shoot at. In addition hustling Oscar has driven out six home runs and is only topped by his team mate, Cannady, who is showing the way in distance hitting with eight homers to his credit. Charleston, is also second in base that is stiring stolen nine sacks, running closely behind George Carr of the Hildale team, who has stolen 14 bases. The material aid to the fast traveling Harrisburg team is-Jack Shackelford, the sensational young third baseman, who hails from Wiley College, Texas. Shackelford has horned into the select class of 400 hitters and has hit safely in all but two games since joining the Harrisburg team. Gilbertaner, of Harrisburg, with five wins and no defeats is the leading pitcher. Corbett of Harrisburg and Rector and Hubbard of the Royal Giants, also have clean slates with three, four and two respective victories. Sunday Tennis In D. C.

Ind. — There was great rejoicing among auto enthusiasts the country over, Independence Day, when word was flashed across the wires that Hugo Barnes, a female football coach, driver of the Ray and Butcher dirt track auto racing team had equilateral the State track speed mark of young Howard Wilcox, white, at Rochester. Barnes who was the only colored driver appearing at the track is a member of the Gold and Glory clan of this city's colored races who will compete in the Fair Grounds in the second annual renewal of the Gold and Glory Sweepstakes. America's premier 100 mile dirt track championship race are members of the group. Barnes made this record during an exhibition spin on the half mile oval preceding the race proper. In condition, but Barnes tooled his mount for the first lap for the astonishing record of 31 seconds and hold up his great burst of speed for four more laps at the record time of 32 seconds in the stands of spectators cheer him on.

However, auto fans the country over and especially in Indiana, will have the opportunity of seeing the fly in the eye of the turns and straightways at the State: Fair.

Will Harry Will On His T Will Harry Wills Be Feted On His Trip To Europe? By Fred A. Hayner, in Chicago Daily News Harry-Wills is on his way to Europe. Of the fighters who have gone abroad at the top of their fame and who are best remembered are Jack Johnson and now Harry Wills. Peter Jackson, one of the greatest pugilists in ring history was the leader from 1858 to 1883 and is celebrated for the great reception given him by all classes in the big town. Royalty was glad to talk to him and to marvel at his big body and his prowess as a boxer. Jack takes a kindly to the disky Harry? Jack Johnson went to France in 1913, where he had three fights. His victories in these, his fame as conqueror, his sport and his prowess at Paris to him. He was as a conqueror he. He swept the town as Peter Jackson had swept London years before. It was after the more formal begin and at one time acted as editor of sports for a Madrid newspaper. This was before he inhaled 1915 for Havana to fight Willard, a bout he afterward decided to lose and in which his title went to Jess. Wills, as he sailed for Europe the other day, said he was going over to visit some baths and his endeavor to have happiness in his hand removed. That would indicate he has no intention of fighting while abroad. Neither will he pursue Jack Dempsey, for the reason the two boxers will pass each other at sea. Of the fighters who preceded him Wills is a different type.

Day From and SUPPLY CO. VICTOR Miss Myrle Carden, newly appointed Director of the Sharp Street Community House, is now located at her post of duty, full of enthusiasm and plans through which the Community House will be of definite service to the community. Miss Carden is a Philadelphia and has worked extensively with the Armstrong Association of Philadelphia of which Forrester B. Washington is executive secretary. She also made a social study of the unmarried mother situation under the Council of Social Agencies and here direct from advanced Miss Myrtle Cardon study at New York University. Urges Definito Service . In an interview with an Afro reporter, Miss Carden stated that the need of every community was a spirit of definite service in the churches and social agendas—not something vague, accidental benefit or by-product results, but to set a definite thing to accomplish and set out and accomplish it. She also emphasized the importance of organizations in certain sections of the city, and hinted of plans already being formulated, by her to relieve this condition. As an interruption of definite service, Miss Carden plans to secure the cooperation of High School girls in waging a campaign to reduce infant mortality which is appalling high during the summer months. They will assist mothers getting their babies to the clinic. Youth Just Expressive When asked what she thought the free, irresponsible mode of dress and manner of the modern youth indicated, Miss Carden laughter said, "just self-expression which happens to be tolerated now-a-days instead of condemnation as years ago. They are no different than their elders or the family of a girl age 15 or age 18, theirlings are expressed instead of suppressed. And it is better-so. It is better that the young people realize what life means—the meaning of associations—consequences—why they should not be a single type? if mothers did their duty by their sons, there would be no blundering into disaster. It is only that who is concealed that is visible when doing is prompted by curiosity. I am intensely interested in the unmarried mother situation. The attitude toward the unfortunate girl is all wrong. The public actress is all right. She will fail has undergone a complete metamorphosis. It is not so. She is not to be scorned by any mother or father as unfit, because of her misfortune, to associate with their children, to open to another. I believe that every human however high or low, has his contribution to make or the unmarried mother most assuredly has hers. I do not despise but I pity her. I can be sensible she always heroic qualities of which she accusers are devoid. Christianity Paramount In conclusion Miss Carden made it very plain that the great point of service lay in true Christianity and not denomination, and that her field as laid out by her teachers was clauses or creed, and her one and single aim is to be of the greatest possible service to all she can reach. Florence Crittendon Circle To Meet There was an important meeting of the Florence Crittenden Circle at the home of Mrs. Blanche T. Tylier, 3119 Burchell Street, Tuesday evening of this week.

Anthony Avery Pay the city and rural teachers, is the same, J. Wahler Huffington, white, state supervisor of Maryland schools, told 700 teachers attending summer school at Hampton, (Va.) Institute, this week, according to word received here. Maryland recognizes the position and influence of the rural teachers the same salaries as pays city teachers who hold the same certificates. He also raised that the length of school term is the same for rural and city schools. Maryland alms to improve classroom teaching through systematic supervision. "The State of Maryland," he said, "is spending annually from public funds for the supervision of college students $19,000. There are over 515 college school buildings in Maryland. In a year I am able to visit over 400." William D. Gresham of Richmond, Va. state supervisor of Negro schools, stated that last year there were 58 colored supervising teachers employed throughout Virginia. There were more trained colored boys and girls than "we need in Virginia." he said, and "other normal school. The present State Normal school is very much overcrowded. The colored people have paid off the debt on the Mississippi school. We are now hoping that the state will take over this institution to help train colored schools to help train some of the 3,500 colored teachers who are needed for Virginia schools."

Wood, late of Florida, Virginia, but now of this city, who was appointed by the School Board as head of the colored schools, including elementary, high and normal. Letters to the editor printed in another part of this edition complain bitterly of this appointment, and criticise the Board's method of administering our schools. Letters in brief recite:— That Dr. Wood is virtually unknown among race educators of this institution. That his bachelor's degree was not earned in a Class A college, while his advanced degrees are honors. That several local men or men from nearby cities can be found qualified educationally for the The School Board, consisting of all white members, consulted no one, but took the bit in its teeth and sacrificed educational fitness in order to secure a school head from the South. That such criticism may be just-made is no reflection on the new supervisor. Rather do they prove the contention made so frequently in these columns that the colored public schools will never be properly administered until there is some on the board to represent the interest of the colored people, as the martyr status now, administrative staff is served to the successful schools by the board with a mind meet whether the colored school positions order a variety of school positions. is informative that these things are so. It is a miserable travesty upon the supposed sense of fair play in this community, that colorful schools should be set apart as a gift and then not granted representation in the administration. The treat is that the schools remain in politics. Voters of the city will do well to get candidates for mayor from both parties as to their willingness to give representation on the school board, and to vote for that candidate who will recognize their rights regardless of whether he is a Democrat or Republican. Dr. Wesley is supervisor of schools, he did not seek the office. He had made a success in his work in Kentucky and had made all plans to go back there this year. He accepted the offer made to him because it presented an advancement. The Afro-American not only wishes him success, but pledges him cooperation. We trust that he may predail win for himself the high measure of public esteem enjoyed by his predecessor, Mr. Francis M. Rus. South's Voice South's Voice Eer. George R. Stuart, white, of Tennessee now pastor in Birmingham, Alabama, filled the pulpit in Pres Congregational Church, Washington, Sunday morning and his sermon on "Evolution.- What is Truth?" was sent over the air to thousands of listeners by the Cheesecamp and Potomac Telephone Company, radio broadcasting station. Even before the announcer spoke of the radio audience consulted their programs, the lazy drawl beared the speaker as one from a cracker belt of Dixie, and this was more apparent as the supposed religious discourse was punctuated with jokes in which he referred colored people as "darkfles" and ziggers. This Southern backwoods preach-as might be expected, argued against evolution declaring that Christians should hold fast to the state as it is, since upon it has been built in America the finest civ granting what he says for the sake of argument, we would like the pastor to point out some passages in the Bible where "darkies" "niggers" are referred to or where the great Bible hero and Saddam says "hate your neighbor, kills despitefully of him and lynch because he is a nigger." In First Congregational Church, Hard University was found. In church and its pastors have been a strong force for real instillation. Undoubtedly the offspring of the church erased in their institution to a bigot to fill the pulpit in the absence of the regular congregation on vacation. Certain it is that many of the old members of the church must have turned over in their graves Sunday morning. We are assured by one who claims we know the facts that girls, who favored lipsticks do not use them for their own benefit.

State institutions where inmates are nations among all groups of colored college for colored people supported by farmers and the State and Federal farm Children's Safety Is your child quick—or dead? One or the other he must be. Reckless Autists take the largest toll of child life in the United States. Fathers and mothers, the responsibility rests with you, as well as with the automobile drivers. Here is what you must do to protect your children: 1. Keep your boys and girls off the streets. That means you must not send them on errands across streets or permit them to play where automobiles travel. 2. Warn them daily of the dangers. 3. Escort the youngest to school, thus personally teaching them the hazards of the streets. Of 19,000 persons killed by automobiles in the United States in 1924, 5,700 were children. The overwhelming majority of these youngsters were killed while engaged in running errands or going to and from school. Is this slaughter to be stopped? Mothers will have to send their children to the grocery in taxicabs in order to insure their safe return. Let's Go Back The Ohio court of appeals has decided that the Dayton School Board lacks the right to segregate pupils in school houses on account of color. The Court ruled that the School Board may use discretion in the assignment of pupils, but cannot resort to strict segregation. Similar decrees were handed down by State courts when separate schools were started in Springfield, Ohio. So it seems that Ohio schools must admit pupils of all races even if, as the superintendent at Dayton suggests, "he was only establishing separate schools in order to give jobs to more colored teachers." Separate schools are a nuisance anywhere, and any State may well be glad that it is not to be so afflicted. Wherever there are schools apart for Negroes they are always inferior, crowded, poorly situated, without adequate space, and in the majority of cases the teachers are more than teachers in other city schools. Unless Ohio wants the continual struggle and losing for equal schools, it will fight the harder now to see the SAME public institutions. Resolutions The Southern Newspaper Publishers Association, composed of daily newspapers of Dixie, under the influence of Adolf Ochs, white, publisher of the New York Times, adopted recently a new code of ethics. The newspaper owners of the association promise that in the future their columns shall stand for "respect and tolerance for those of other races, religions and circumstances of life." A fine resolution, and a movement worthy of the publisher of the newspaper, is the step that we shall with delight. But it ought to be remembered that the Southern press cannot reform and purge the newspapers of the expedient of resolution. There must be, in addition repentance and penance, Imagine the Atlanta Constitution or the New Orleans Times to be on a colored girl by a white man on the front page or referring to the wife of the president of Tuskegee Institute as "Mrs. Tuskegee" in Motion. We hope this resolution means something, but we doubt it. Fifteen Years Ago Items From The Afro-American of MULY 16, 1910 Mad scramble was on for appointment as Collector of Customs at Georgetown, D.

Every now and then through out the ages the human race has had to break through some shells of thought and new truth generally reach this world through birth pains and struggles no less than human beings and other living beings. The fact is evolution proves itself most of all in these periodic conflicts when the race takes sudden account and evaluates awards a HIGHER CULTIVATION Generally battalions try to break through opposing lines at the most vulnerable point, but when this evolution doctrine tried its spins down the disease, it selected a hard nut to crush. Down there men and women have been taught that God not only created human beings different and distinct but CREATED SOME HUMAN BEING DIFFERENT AND DISTINCT FROM OTHERS. Perhaps even Scopes, who started the ball to rolling, believes this. "Could the spirit of mortal be proud?" Just a few days ago this old world on which we lived did a little evolving and without regard for the welfare of others, and settling process out at Santa Barbara, California.

A. White Man Again Proposes Colonization It has been a long time since any serious minded writer or statesman of the white race has proposed the wholesale colonization of the blacks, as a solution of the "problem." But this is just what Judge Robert Watson Winston, formerly of the Superior Court, Carolina, wrote in an article in the July issue of Current History. After painting a glowing picture of "The New South," in its second世纪 since the Civil war; Judge Robert Watson's solution of the "problem." Taken all in all, however, the Negro's position in the South must be held high to the whites than to the blacks. The new vision of the South must come to fruition; the Negroes of the South must be unified, in the case of the Indians, but peacefully. If the North discovers that it is unable to handle the threat of the South, then the case for Chicago and other cities, then North and South alike must do the right thing by the Negro. Give the Negro a home, as Washougal Clay, Lincoln, Grant and Lee advised; make it so attractive, that he will wish to go to the Caribbean islands, Jamaica, Porto Rico, Northern Africa, or perhaps better, in Brazil, which is inviting b-000,000 Negroes on terms of social and political equality. WONT DEMAND QUALITY HE THINKS Once the ambitions, Negro comes to understand that in the South the precariousness of the Negro is the high-water mark of his advancement, he will no longer, demand an impossible equality, demand the same rights as the thoughts of Mr. White in "The Fire In The Flint." Fortunately-Judge Winston_desirefully dominant, white thought in this country, nor does he know the spirit of Negro determination, steered as it is by the example set by his race to fight right against the oppressors for human freedom and justice. A.Woman Weeds Her Hard Row More than a year ago this writer's attention was called to the case of a young wife living out in Northwest Baltimore who was "having a heath." A young and unnatural husband had left her alone in this big city shortly after she had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Gone to sleep, she had gone to life who lived near her on the little side street, supplied her with nourishment through the her helpless period. When she found work in a laundry with permission to go at intervals to care for her babies. She toiled by day and administered to her own and her infants wants by night. She worked in the laundry and pulled through. Her babies live and are healthy and strong. We saw her smiling and happy this week. She said "I have had a hard row to weed, but I pulled through, and I felt that makes you certain this old world. Is still headed in the right direction. Ritchie Mum On Dawes Governor Albert Ritchie told the AFRO-AMERICAN today that he was too much occupied just now to express his views on a proposition of Vice-President Dawes to amend the Senate rule. Senator Ritchie, it is said, is planning to run for the Senate next year. PROFESSOR FUDGE AMOS HOKUM SAYS Introducing The New Supervisor This is to introduce to you, Dr. Wood, the newly appointed supervisor of Colored schools of Baltimore. Nobody seems to know him in these parts, except a few Kentuckians, so I am taking the liberty to introduce him after-reading the newspaper's life, published in the newspapers. Dr. Wood, I understand, has been the alleged dispenser of education among our people in the Blue Grass region, and he became official observer of the Rockefeller Foundation at Hampton Institute, Virginia. At present he resides somewhere in the state, and will take charge of the situation in Baltimore after the first of August. His education, I understand, was acquired in the University of Kentucky, with experience in handling scholastic matters. He was a dark horse in the race for the job, and in the finals, outperformed men, whose ability, integrity, knowledge and competence were admitted. Fudge Speculates On Board's Choice Speculation has been rife as to just how and why the school board picked him out. When so many men better understand better degrees were to be found in the immediate territory. Some say somebody "buzzed" the school board. Some say his commissionation was responsible for his luck, while some say he was picked for Baltimore because he came from a whiskey and a rate last year. I would like to submit Maryland as a real wet horse state. If any one was picked for the season, if any one was picked for the Hon. J. Phillip Hill and His Excellency, Albert Ritt, should have been given first choice. As far as the Rockefeller school board was better it had been better had it left out of the question. While we realize we still have to buy the school board, the same time he means nothing in our local life. Our last experience A A good many men are getting ready to find out that the first cost of a bride is negligible, but that the upkeep is something terrible.

Some stray sheep might be in the man, but whatever was said went in one ear of the school board and came out the other. However, with everything, including Postum, it was a reason." The school board could be "dumb" as all out of doors, but it would still have a reason, and you can bet your sweet life it had a good reason. Dr. Wood has been observing Hamilton Institute for the past year, and the local board was likely said he was the right man for the job. The truth about the thing is the school board liked the same thing that so many men like in Plegmont namely, that down in the flavor. It might be worth while to mention to the school board to remember Warden Eweezey of the Maryland Penetentiary. Though Sweezey, who was from out of the state, got the job, it was just a matter of put a "bombshell" under him, and The idea is, why go out of the state to get a "Kentucky" farmer, when we have plenty of Maryland farmers who have nothing but time on their hands. Then be it also remembered, the Maryland farmers vote here and don't always vote the straight Republican ticket. Ask the mayor, or the governor, or shall we ask the question at election time.

THIS WEEK By Ernest, Rice McKinney For Preston News Service "The men in the army are these the words of the Negro Pullman porter. He is dead and white America calls him a hero. The Pullman Company has a secondary heroism as they say in the army. This man-Dantles threw himself in the way of some scudding steam trying to die. The passages might not got burned. There was a wreck on the road and the boiler gave way throwing hot water and steam every- Daniels refused -medical aid. He told the doctors to look after a little white girl.

Because, if Daniels in the living flesh -had run true to the man's instructions, he would have saved himself and attempted to rape this little girl as he caught her wandering amidst the wrecked train. For -says America-the Negro is a muscular man, and Daniels was a Negro. I can't grow enthusiastic over what the Pullman Company has done. I cost nothing. I never had a broken finger. Ever since this thing happened I have been asking myself "WHAT WOULD THE PULLMAN COMPANY HAVE DONE TO RE-DANIELS IF HE HAD LIVED?" He would have been no less a hero, no less self-sacrifice, no less devoted to duty. But I am of the opinion that the "Pulmanian hero" to Russian lady told by William James. You remember this lady sat in the theatre and wept at the misfortune of the hero, on the stage, while her own coachman froze to death on the outside. For he was only a coachman and Daniels was on the outside. And so, knowing white America as I do, I just can't lose my head whenever our native 100 per cent Nordic countrymen make a constantly resilient brother, brother and crass gestures in our direction. Why should I throw my hat in the air when I stop and think and know and feel that Daniels alive today would "george" power and end, to the end of the Pullman cars. Kelly Miller Says There are 2,000,000 un Northern and border states while number in the South count for practically nothing of the race is concerned. The race is all but wh mental factor. Negroes are in the government. The ent grade. No other ten million receive such shabby treatment. All of this is due to leadership. There are 2,000,000 unchallenged Negro voters the Northern and border states. There might be a worth while number in the South if properly led. These votes count for practically nothing so far as the public favor of the race is concerned. The race is all but wholly elimenated as a governmental factor. Negroes are not appointed to high station in the government. The entire political tendency is retrograde. No other ten million people or two million voters receive such shabby treatment at the hands of the government. All of this is due to inadequate and ineffectual leadership. Political Leadership Last week I spoke of Negro self-leadership. The treatment was limited to the circle of affairs where the race is shut in to itself. Self-leadership by an outsider, it would be far preferable, in the long run, for Haiti to govern herself badly than for the United States to manage her affairs well. It will ultimately lead to good government; but the better an imposed government is, the longer will it perpetuate itself and keep the people in perpetual dependence. Self-government can be made good, but must grow out of experience. The Haitians will wait for many a weary year if they hope to learn self-government from American tutor. President Obama, in one of his ungraceful philosopher statements, stated that the peoples of Europe had shed all the blood they pleased. in learning self-government; and that so far as he was concerned, that right and privilege recorded the same right and privilege. We must have patience with mistakes. Experiments cannot be conducted without sacrifice of material resources. We must be efficient many Negro concerns are conducted. How much better it might be if some more efficient Negro enterprises were formed. Negro enterprises fail, and many (mild spirits say: "What is the use?" But this is the price that must be paid. His better to have tried and failed, and not all. Out of antecedent failure will grow more abundant success. No Negro Leadership In Politics Negro leadership in politics is like the chapter on snakes in Alaska. There are no snakes in Alaska. Negro leadership in politics. In the first place leadership implies organization supported and controlled from within. This is not in the primary game of politics, which is to nominate and elect men to offices. He has no sustained political power. He is self-identified basis. Such skeletons as there are exist by suffurance and support of the white bosses. According to the law of politics, the Negro politician must take orders from on high and execute to them below. He does not control the government is a common function for all the people, black and white. In any mixed interest, the white, are bound to control. In communalism, numerically, they are deprived of the franchise or so manipulated that the anterior control falls into the hands of the white overlord and In the southern states, several attempts have been made to build up an independent race party and to put up Negro organizations. But no such party has been able to endure, for the reason that Negro leadership lacks the means, courage and persistence to stem so strong a current of opaque and apathetic as a mere flash in the pan. For vindictive reasons, some candidate may run on an independent ticket for a particular election, but the election over, the incident is closed and the organization disbanded. Self-Anointed Leaders In National Elections For lack of organization, the Negroes' interest in the game is stimulated only quadrennially, when the national election is on. Then the national leader assumes to represent and speak for the people. They formulate a catalog of demands which the party leaders listen to with a keen interest. In all of moods and changes. The election is over. A few paid jobs are assigned for the duration of the campaign. The Negroes are in all of moods and changes. The election is over. The victory is won or lost, and all is forgotten. The Negro edition lists the last campaign bill of demands to the grand Old Party that challenged the admiration of the race. Had they formed an organization of Negro newspapers serving as their permanent, persistent demand, some result doubtless would have followed. But instead it was merely a conference on the occasion only. After the election, we do not find that any one of the journals signatory to these demands has followed them up as if they were put forth in the first instance. The tentative agreement is the race plays for house politics it will be regarded as the jest, the sport and riddle of the political world. The Negro race has great political potential power. There are two million unchallenged Negro states and three million states. There might a worth while number in the south, even under restrictive constitutions, if they were properly led and urged to register and vote under existing restrictions. The votes count for practically nothing so far as the public favor of the race is concerned. Congress gives no head to our just demands. The government ignores our reasonable demands and indemnocratic treatment. The race is all but wholly eliminated as a governmental factor. Negroes are not appointed to high station in the government. The places that once we filled now know us that they are political tendency is retrograde. 2,000,000 Voters Unchallenged mackallenged Negro voters the a. There might be a worth of if properly led. These votes go so far as the public favorolly eliminated as a govern- not appointed to high stationire political tendency is retropeople or two million votersnt at the hands of the governo inadequate and ineffectual the government. All of this is due inadequate and ineffectual leaders- In the north this leadership is difficult to determine. The race is difficult to predict, unless it can play only a reeble second fiddle. It cannot easily organize and direct the forces for any sustained length of time. The state is the political unit. There is so much local valuation that the state can easily distort the influence of the other. Reached Highest Level Under Booker T. The race reached its highest point of political efficiency and influence when there was somesemblance of leadership under Booker T. Washburn. He was the leader of the vote of the Negro had so much weight with the government affecting the wolfage of the race. He was the leader of political politics. He had no organization of a political character. But he was designated by President Roosevelt to serve as spokesman for his race in public matters by reason of his race and weight before the American people. The race at first did not approve the selection. But wherever the carcass is, there will be more appointments, more credential and weight of the power will get the support and finally the approval of the politician. Mr. Washington secured more first appointments, more credential and weight of the race than have befallen its fortune at any other time and under any other leadership. This merely indicates the importance of centred leadership. Some are disposed to argue that since our political fabric is organized by the same leader, by follow the same patent. But unfortunately the race has little or no statal function or power. This would give us as many leaders as there are, and that is trivial. The Negro vote is regarded as an entity. Dispersive leadership is self-destructive. It compares used to say that one had ruler is better than two good ones. A dozen Negro leaders scattered throughout the states have been easily recognized leader even though he be no better than any one of the twelve. If the race politician is not a leader, he is a leader and present him to the government as the spokesman and mouthpiece of us all, it might be well acquiesced to him as was done in the case of Booker T. Washington. The difficulty is that no one now seems to be functioning. The Nazis, the Admiral of Colored People, a non-political organization, is our main dependence, in having any vital racial interests, possibly because of their dislocation before the Congress, and before the country. Of course this organization laborers under heavy disadvantage so far as political matters are concerned. William C. Matthews Not Functioning The voice eries-in the streets, "where is our leader? Has William C. Matthews been designated for this function? If so, is he functioning? If he does not, or cannot function, then why not try another? The most important step taken in Negro politics since the death of Booker T. Washington was the recognition on part of the National Republican party of Negro leadership in party matters in Georgia and Mississippi. This gives Lincoln Johnson and Perry Howard titular and ostensibly control of the party machinery in these states. They are full-fledged trustees of the National Republican party, co-equal with 43 others. Their female colleagues are given similar weight and influence. This makes the Negro a real political factor. They control the states' political units, even if the popular suffrage is wanting. In the control or even to function, largely in the control of the state. Even if we grant that these national committees cannot function with one hundred per cent efficiency, yet they express the highest exponent in the political equation of the They must advise upon all federal appointments in their states, even when the president to advocate the appointment of Negro officials to unaccustomed places. The fact that they must be consulted and considered gives them recognition and political importance. It would be well-if our political leaders had the breadth and stature in the north and south are widely different. The modes of leadership must be different. And yet all are but parts of the same population to work according to a common understanding. The national political leader should be nationally acceptable, and not so, but simply the political welfare of the race as a whole. K. K. K.

McGoffus, the nationally known educator, denied that he would accept the position as supervisor of Baltimore colored schools. The audience sat mute and silent throughout the whole discourse, but three, short men at the conclusion of the speech, Mr. McGoffus dodged them all successfully. The great man was greeted outside the auditorium by newspaper men, bill collectors and police. The professor created the crowd however, by carrying one of his shoes in his hand. They thought it was a furniture man moving the piano. A reporter for this paper interviewed Mr. McGoffus in his home. He found him in his den garbed with handsome lounging robe of burial.

A The great educator retterd from public life in 1918, he was active again as soon as his six months were up. Mr. McGoffoss was at one time a great power in the politics of this city. It is said that during the last election he voted for both parties. Mr. McGoffoss has run for many big offices and ran from many big officers. When asked his opinion of probation, Mr. McGoffoss said since that he was much used for other countries he thought America should give it a trivial. In Commenting on the Dyer Ant-Lynching Bill, the professor said that if Mr. Dyer owed Mrs. Lynch a bill he should pay it even though she was his uncle. When asked why he declined the position of supervisor, Mr. McGoffoss said he only paid a mere pitilance of some $3,500, and he was tired working for charity.

The greatest novel of the year "Veiled Aristocrats" By Gertrude Sanborn DEGIDELY ORIGINAL FULL OF VIVID CHARACTERS APPEALING TO THE NOBLEST QUALITY OF HEART AND SOUL Her book is a strongly put protest against the unfairness with which Americans treat the Negro section of our population. The subject is original; some will say that it is overdone, but she has nevertheless made a compelling story. The Boston Globe, January 12, 1924. The story moves at the pace demanded and throws light upon many phases of the Negro character. It challenges conventions generally used and throughout the center of a lively discussion. The Milwaukee Journal, December 28, 1922. We think that the book is significant in that it emphasizes the generally used and throughout the book the author gives facts regarding the Negro. Known as the Christian Recorder, January 12, 1924. Associated Publishers 1838 'Ninth SL, N. W. Washington, D. C. HOME EDUCATION DESCENDED FROM ADAM Manthei Howe "Ann, you ought to be a happy woman," Buster is a thoroughly unspolied child," commented Grace Wilton. "It was something of a job to see that he didn't get out of hard." "I know, in the beginning, it is easier to give the child a penny or stick of candy to buy obedience that is both to help him to obey because it is the right thing to do." Then when a child gets beyond control the mother comes to the kindergarten and says, I just can't do a thing with him." "Do you know," Grace went on grimly, "when I get almost ready to give up my teaching, I am going to lie in wait for one of those asinine mothers. When she comes to school tugging some sinned-angalnt child by the hand and complains how bad he is, I'll tell her." Woman, you are too ignorant to be trusted to rear a child; if you spent half as much time reading up on child training as you spend on a permanent wave or on bridge you wouldn't have a spolled child." Then I'll resign before that mother gets a chance to have the school board damless me." "I wonder, though, if some children aren't so full of the old Adam that they can't be made to behave." "Whenever you see a child that seems incorrigibly full of the old Adam," retorted Grace, "just remember that luckless youngster is paying for having had an Adamish ancestor." The speaker halted, amazed. "There was a yawling and walling at the front door." "That is Mrs. Joselin and her little daughter, Pauline," explained Ann hurledly. Presently the yowls ceased. Grace Wilton waited, curious to see what manner of callers would appear. The mother entered the room first. She greeted the kindergartner amiably: "So glad to meet you, Mrs. Anderson tells me you are wonderful with children. I suppose you heard Pauline screaming like a young wildcat; she's simply impossible. O, Mrs. Anderson, what a lovely chrysanthemum!" No further attention was paid to the little girl. "She's a darling baby," the kindergartner decided, "and bright as can be. The mother is foolish if she thinks she can drive or ignore Pauline." Abd. Miss Wilton remarked, "Pauline, let's go over and see if Buster can find something for us to play with." Buster hospitably began explaining the construction of his bridge. Miss Wilton rejoined the adults just as a domineering voice was raised in command: "Now remember what I told you, Pauline, before we came in." She winked at Ann and Grace. "I told her if she was good I'd buy her something at the ten cent store and if she wasn't good she would get a whipping she would remember." Ann did her sprightly best to keep up a conversation, but the call was not much of a success and Mrs. Joselin soon left. "Thank goodness she's gone," sniffed Grace. "Pauline is an abused lamb. Mrs. Joselin ignored the child in a way she would not dare treat any grown up. Then see the way she contracted for the child's good behavior. She did not urge that it was the kind and friendly thing for Pauline to be a good child when visiting and so make her friends happy; no, she bribed her with something from the ten cent store as a reward for goodness and threatened a whipping for naughty behavior." "But," protested Ann, "Pauline is usually a terror. She will scream half the day if her will is thwarted."

POINDEXTER MFG. CO. 833 Druid Hill Avenue Baltimore, Md. "You have stepped off the beaten path in search of something. I know by your face you are not fooling for you. You are not fooling for you will find many here—all hidden flowers. Proud southerners—I speak of white people—refer to their most bull, their most beautiful flowers and their astonishment. Here among us you will find many blossoms from the same plants, many flowers of the same lance, but all in shadow—astrochrones under the sun caused by a mad fate in a prison built of prejudice!" "You—you—do you feel white?" in asking the question Rod remembered that McChellan had wondered whether he was him in the darkness as black or white. "Could any opinion of mine mean as much to you as the opinion of a white skinned man?" Just these wistful queries from the lips of two black men turned a corner before his awakening consciousness. Though Rod's soul was tender and young, its筋皮 was stuacch. He had in metal that was capable of giving itself for a cause or for a friend. Uncle Ray continued. "During my many years abroad I mingled with the great of the African diaspora, civic affaires and in domestic circles. / I wore evening clothes as my right: now that I have returned to Chicago I live here in a section of the city with a millionous whites. I no longer mingle with the great of the earth. I no longer feel that I am above an actor, a student, a delver into each other's lives. I am American, just one overpowering thing—a problem. I eat and sleep in bitterness and yet I sing so that may not be overcome by a nigger. If I put on evening clothes someone shouts at me, 'Here, waiter, bring me a ham sandwich.' And uncle Ray laughed with him at his own perplexities. The laugh of the American Negro has been in no small way responsible for his American friends who cannot laugh. "I am an outcast in the country I love. Before an immigrant enters our harbor he is told to have nothing to do with the American Negro. He is told to be himself democratic, but who believes himself democratic, but who believes it is more important that the world should be white than that it should be right." I think to think most Negroes were porters or cooks. I suppose you and Curr McClellan are exceptions? "There are tens of thousands of exceptions. The southerner feared to be a Negro would lose a hoe-hand. But when you educate a 'nigger you no longer have a 'nigger.' You have a man! The education of the Negro is commonly supposed to make him unhappier. The face of a white man unhappier. The white man unhappier and this unhappiness is reflected in the Negro." Bod bushed himself with his unpickling and after a few moments Uncle Jake faintly back and fronted the house brought an unacquainted peace into Rod's heart. He felt very happy. McClellan telephoned to him in the evening and Rod promised to go to the studio he met earlier but the flow of life past the door, the call of mysterious sight and sound, the promised revelations of rows of houses, the adventure in this strange black city. Rod sauntered up and down a thoroughfare, lined with busy shops, that cut straight into the heart of many houses, and vivid scraps of conversation; he rubbed elbows with the lowest of both races that, streaming from crowded quarters, spend their evenings on the streets. One of these places caught his eye. It was highly cooled on the exterior and through the high open windows he caught sight of the mellow shades of flowers that were reflected from doxons of mirrors set along the walls. "Good evening," a soft voice called at his elbow, and have some lunch!" "Guess I will," smiled Rod. The man who had accosted him relieved his of his cont and Rod stepped into the noisy hall. Several Negro girls entered the room, and might be so termed—to the deafening accompaniment of a Negro orchestra. The skin of the girl nearest Rod had the appearance of being tinted a warm, red hue, and encased in a gown of pale rose colored satin. The material fell obliquely across her slight breast to be drawn severely across her abdomen, producing a rash that came into its own when she danced and roiled her muscle under the lavender skin in a series of contortions that were horrible, of contemplation, and perplexing. White men lolling about the tables, singing and foerous guists of aplausus. As the evening progressed the shouting and yelling of the crowd took on a mulled in the madness. Black and white danced in the crowd with any girl; patrons shook hands with the waiters; waiters cheated patrons; patrons insulted the patrons. For the white patrons of this homeland, the patrons were waiting a clear night in violent excesses, no excuse could be found, but Rod presently discerned that many of the dark people were in desperate distress. They were not wasting precious time were "on the job." Above the awful convulsions of the, dark bodies of many of the girl there were grave and hon. and the quick deceitful smiles of the warriors expressions that demoted battles waged patiently in the hellish din for a pitiful wage. The white men and wo. were throwing the monotony of life, were throwing down into the cesspool of despair men and women, bred like gnats in the cesspool, were climbing from it on the backs of the degraded whites. With the shrieks thrown densely at them they were unruling education in their off hours. A little after twelve o'clock, the very night, she came to fire a wedge with srange sensations, sent her home. Acquired home. He let himself in with the key Amber had slipped into from the house earlier in the evening. He came earlier, half afraid of disturbing the house. "Veiled Aristocrats" BY GERTRUDE SANBORN A Story of Two Races Nu-Hair Tar Salve For BALD SPOTS and DANDRUFF hold, he moved carefully up the carpeted stairway. Echoing memories of his mother's strident voice cut across the stimulus of his own voice, his customary for his mother. In hideous curl papers, to sit hilt upright in bed to hector him. After an evening away from home Rott always went to weigh his weight, but not yet unpleasant. His soul had not yet thrown off theoke of her unugly narrowness. Suddenly and silently Amber descended the stair. She had been marry, and she had had her children through the years. She was thirty-eight. Red saw her shadow on the wall and with quick, unconscious glance he held his hand for her safe concern. "Are you hungry—would you like a little luncheon?" "No, thank you." "Did you find people to interest you tonight?" "Many." "My ancestor—he interests you?" "Yes—and you interest me." "Yes—and you interest me." "You interest me too. Rod—very much," Amber whispered in reply. "I wish I could understand life—I wish I could understand myself." "May I help you?" "Will you? " Rod's warm fingers closed over Amber's cool hands. "I will love you." Amber said gently. "I will be delighted—you shall be the son of my soul." Rod, lately an expressive small-town boy, bent his shining head and pressed Amber's finger tips with trembling lips. "Teach me to live as you have lived—to find the beauty you have found—" "I shall teach you to live as I can never live—you do not wear the vell." They ascended the stairway together. Amber went with Rod into his room. She lighted his lamp, turned the spread and pilled his pillows into plush. "Good-night—good-night, son," she said. Instantly his arms were about her and he had kissed her with a great smile. "Good-night—mother." He had never kissed his own mother and also had never kissed him. In fact, the quick NU-KAIR TAR SALVE AND CHEMICALS OF THE UNION Mm Kivg PRICE 50 CENTS THERE ARE OTHER HAIR DRESSERS BUT ONLY ONE Poindexter HAIR CULTURIST MANUFACTURER embrace he had given Amber Bick was the first one of his starved young Amber mothered by an nautical Spanish woman. To night his soul was to be a warm, impulsive oceans man who very lack in ceilings conventional rooms, but a straighter course than any puritanical church could possibly achieve. Amber returned to her bedroom, her husband reached up to caress her curts and drew her down to the window his mother. "The boy has come home safe and sound." "Yes, dear—no wonder Carr is interested in him—he is an astonishing young creature," I sounded. I could hear the most amazing look on his face, the right atmosphere he will design quickly, I know. I can't tell you how I live him already." He is very like you in many young Amber mothers, but tonight. You arrive at comfort through the same mental process, though yours are swift and his are intuitive and stumbling. If you had a very like this boy, They went to sleep, their last conscious thought that wistful and paitent they would bestow on God, to the surface in the relations with the white. They both hope that through the affection and care they would bestow on God, that he would white man, would understand that longing to be admitted to their place in the affairs of men, to attain their goals, to be admitted to a well-installed system, in which every single living under his laws should earn self, respect. Alone, God removed his collar though the neck, the lavender-colored closet, the getting into his pajamas he caught, sight of himself in the mirror. He looked at the lavender-colored closet. He looked puzzled, then interested. He drew closer to the glass. He raised his arm to sex him. Slowly he bent his body into the glass, and swung lightly about on his toes. This was a short cut to the expression of the new life and rhythm as surging over him in happier waves. Of the ballet he had never heard of, of the christity of molly he was ignorant; he had stumbled into the floor of life and life and the soul in his life and life and the soul in his body into body into posture and designs. There in the science of light the old Red disappeared and the new Red appeared, look, as if a quantity of champions had been poured upon him, beating him to smile rebelliously through the film of its faint fragrance. It was the first time he had seen diences in coming years—a look that lay not so much in his flying tassels, in his wide liquid eyes in his lean tender modeled skin and his shiny skin. He shinthed through these coverings. The wild, beautiful force that sends sunlight slamming over hailstorms, that drikes heating bird wings hwars hwars; that raises white lilies blossom, black mold, flowers and rises in aromatic forests, ushers, along Rod's velvet-colored muscics. He had loved moths and lice, flowers and streams, but a slam, a gullet, a galline, he and watched them with drooping head. Now, past the portal of the glorious country of freedom of things were his. His heart was set wide for whirling, changing angel. God was his—or he was God—sit in the same. (Continued next week) Tuesday, 5 P.

Spiritualism Spiritualism As time moves on, each individual must be able to recognize and explain, too, how they shall they shall the light of divine truth be multiplied, and how they shall they shall the multitudes who have missed out of this world, and as it is, have wahanted, and as it is, have wahanted, the blood of the Lamb, have been reborn, and are called the children of God. Their souls have been blessed and by them have been dam. Nevertheless, they are not souls and must be made perfect in the realms because perfect in the realms becomes perfect in the silent realms of the world. A.

Industrial democracy; 4. Better education; 5. The absolute ending of segregation of all sorts based on race ... and color. LYNCHING Let no one think that lynching is atrocious. America as long as we victim every month is publicly murdered, and even burned by mobs. G. O. P. Three is no political salvation for the Negro as long as he is owned body and soul by the Republican by any other person. A free, intelligent ballot is our one political salvation and no place, honor, or salary is worth its loss. DEMOCRACY We stretch again hands of fellowship and sympathy to all the working people of this land the world. We would unite with them as requisites and as fellows, through organization to make modern industry democratic rather than autocratic, to end monopoly and privilege and capital and social rather than individual wealth the end of all industry. Common Schools We are deeply alarmed at the lack of common schools for our children, and we need high school training and to keep our talented youth out of colleges and professional schools. We believe in Humanity; we believe in the social system; we will fight to the bitter end every effort to separate, segregate and publicly humiliate human rights or color. We are fighting residential segregation in the last ditch before St. Paul's School. We are attacking disfranchisement in the South by bringing the white primary before the bar. The Bullard Slander Haiti The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has announced its Annual Conference, respectfully reminds the President of the United States and its Secretary of State, the President and sovereign republic of Haiti is still occupied, in defiance of international law (b) to represent that all of the purposes alleged as excuses for this illegal occupation have been achieved, and that all that sought advantages denied under the old constitution has made its defense American sugar corporations are now prosperously installed in the suburgate of Haiti, in these conditions the time has come for us to fulfill our related obligations to the United States, the request that American troops be withdrawn from Haiti at once and the country return to such of its people as still resisting. In view of the persistent and evidently concerted effort to abolish Abortion movement that freed this country from the burden of poverty, the table shame of slavery, it is the sense of this Conference that where societal association should commemorate the birthdays and public services of the male and unisex fish men and women.

Says Race Problem Gets Worse Chicago, July 17. dispatch from Copenhagen, Denmark, printed in the Chicago daily. (Wilbur T. Williams, a Chicago physician, declares that the race problem in America is growing worse. "As long as colored people obey the minor positions, it will be like it now. It is all right, but if they are ambiguous, the whites get angry and difficulties arise. It injures a white man. The blacks get with an equal. When loses business and you know how Americans love their money." MINISTER TO RETIRE AFTER LONG CAREER MINISTER TO RETIRE AFTER LONG CAREER The Rev. J. C. Love To Take Vacation And Rest In Kansas COMPLETED 50 YEARS IN M. E. PULPIT His Pride Is Four Sons All Of Whom Are College Graduates The Rev. J. C. Walt, member of the Washington Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, resigned recently from the pastorate of the Mt. Winnat's charge, left this week for Kansas City, Kans., where he will make his home with his son, Dr. William A. Love, practicing physician. Ministerial Landmark The Rev. Mr. Love may be rightly considered a ministerial landmark of the Methodist Connection, having the pulpit, *45* of which were in the Washington Conference; from which he is now retiring. During those years he has but eight five years of ages and required four. Hundreds have been converted under the power of his prescribing. The Rev. Mr. Love was seriously injured two months ago by a passing automobile, and spent several weeks in a hospital. With the conclusion rest, he will take a much needed rest. Expects To Live 81 Years In the meeting preceding the closing session of the Baltimore Preschools' Meeting, the Rev. Mr. Lovebade farewell to his co-workers in the Christian Cause. In his remarks he stated that he expects to be back in the church though he is leaving, he will not cease his activity for the progress of the church. He referred to Dr. Brennan, who was the pastor, and predicted that new blood would enter the connection at the next conference. In conclusion he counseled the ministers to respect age and not override those older adults, and said, "beats a clean life." He contemplates writing a history of his service in the church, and may reenter the active ministry if his health permits. He was tended to postmortal offering by the meeting. Has Brilliant Sons The Rev. Mr. Love is the father of four sons, all of whom are graduate students in the College of Education University. Two of these sons are practicing attorneys of West Bengal, India. B. A. is in the same conference with his father, and is now postoring in Annapolis. The fourth son is a practicing physician of Kansas. The departure of this estimable and worthy character occasions much regret, but, the conferences sends with regret, the love, and love, and can safely point to him as an exemplary minister, father, brother and citizen.

"The Sun Do Move The Earth Am Flat" John Jasper, The Unmatched Philosopher And Preacher, Who Lived In Richmond 40 Years Before The War, And 40 Years After It From the Story of John Jasper, By William F. Hatcher More Facts: Concerning the Sermon On The Sun The text for his sermon was a long cry from his topic. It was "The Lord God is a man of war" The Lord is. His name." He was too good a sermon-maker to announce a text and abandon it entirely, and set aside it to gather illustrations of the all-conquering power of God. This took him over a half hour to develop, and as it grew, he began his argument as to the rotation of the sun it made his sermon not only incongruous, but intolerably long — far longer than he could remember that I knew him to preach. The two parts of the discourse had no special kinship, but the sermon before reshaped the thing they came for. It was an error in judgment, but his power to entertain an audience was on the continuum of his mistake. Contention The intelligent reader will readily understand the drift of his contention about the sun. What he said, of course, was that the Old Testament, written many centuries ago, not as a treatise on astronomy, but in language fitted to express ideas from the standpoint of the times in which it was used. The later discoveries in the natural world, and, therefore, very sincerely beloved with religious sincerity, and all doggedness with the truth, the curatures of the old scriptures were true in every jot and little. It is apparent enough that to the elightened people who went to hear the address merely for amusement there was rare fun in the whole perform- Ignorant Simplucton To them, Jasper was an ignorant old simpleton, a buffoon of the pulpita, a weakling to be hagged at by his friends, and dead in corpse, and withal so shrewd in stating his case, so quick in turning a point, and brimming with such choice humour and sometimes strokes of sarcasm, that he compelled the admiration of his coldest critics. To the unutured "people before light. They believed every sylvable that fell from his lips—he was the truth to them—they stood where other honest and godly people stood they saw them. Their opinion as to the sun did not in the least affect their piety, for, as a fact, they believed just exactly as the grandfather believed years before. Stormed The Heights It was worth while while being there. Jasper was in his most flexible, masterful mood, and he stormed the heights with his force. He was the members would be sending forth peaks of laughter and shouting in wildest response, "Yas, Lord; data's so, Beer Jasper; hit 'em ergin; less good ol' glory, less evil glory." Then he would fly beyond the sun and give them a glimpse of the New Jerusalem, and they would be crying and lurking until you would think the end had come. But not so by ever so much. A word from Jasper would be he would be the master grain and ready for new flights. Syndicate Formed When the excitement about the sermon was at its full blow, human greed, ever jeon-scented, sensed money, ever a sage to sell to trade on the old man and his message. A syndicate was formed to send him out as a lecturer, hoping that the Northern love for jeon would lead to the subject, would fill past halls with crowds to hear the old man, and turn in rich revenues, of which they would reap the larger. Jauper, for reasons by no means mercenary, was tickled by this new turn in fortune. He was not wanting in the pride of successful amusement, but was wanting distinction naturally pleased him. Fame was pinning her medals fast upon him, and he liked it. Not that he was infatuated with notion of filling his private pocket. No Love Of Money As a fact, he never uttered in my hearing one sentence that showed his love of money, or his energy to get it. But he was much - SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Sunday, July 19th, THE GOSPEL IN LYSTRIA, Act 1:11-28.

His hearty dwelt with his flock, and to honor and cheer them was life to him. Of course, his church fell in with the idea. Anything to please 'Brother Jasper' was a good idea, and together with them to see glory crowning their pastor and gold pouring in to build them a temple. It was with pomp and glee they sent him away. The day of his death was celebrated with general excite-ment and with cheering groups at the train. Providence Absent But in some way providence did not get identified with the new enterprise. The man's trial to people set on sensation. The Lord in his military character did not appeal. Some actually retired after the first part, and on an eclipse to hope uncoupled from show, proved a failure, for which the devout may well give thanks. He got as far as Philadelphia, and even that history had brief and brisk to spend in listening for ninety-oil minutes to two uncongenial discourses loosely bundled into one. The old man had left his church to an uncongenial church in Richmond, and felt a chill of desolation when he set foot on allen soil. The tides of invisible senses fought against him, emmy banned at him, and he got home-sick.

THE WORLD NEEDS SERVICE I Am-Among You As One T Mankind, today is in very great, so much want, suffering, and misery sum of the world's needs cannot be everywhere, are praying and offer heads of governments, prominent papers, and powerful business journals and reconstruction. We need Christians save the world," say others. And it all personal, loving, self-dyning service in his own life, will heal the sick other way, other remedy, no old personal service. To prove my statement, let of his people. He has provided all body, soul, and mind has been saved need of animal and spiritual life, night unto night; sheweth knowledge message to His children. Angels in minded men are saved of their human Soul and proclaim the Salvation of unselfender, sympathy and ministry of into terrible need, through human the door out of its needs. God has not been content to do messages and insisted men. He capable to set them the examples minister to the world. This is Christ Soul," to know and to see God." Christ. He shows us what God is His Will is. Christ reveals the Faith is God is. God is a Servant." If a man is. He must be like God. Nothing else the value of a mans life is made of what God is. He loves lovingly lay down. We praise God, that there have been Spirit of God, Love and Service, and the marvel and beauty of such of suffering and those in need, but Father. St. Paul knew how to endure Christ. This is the Service God need I Am-Among You As One That Serveth. St. Luke 22: 27. Mankind, today is in very great need. Never before have there been so much want, suffering, and misery, among the "billions," of people. The sum of the world's suffering and women and children is great, grazing and offering suggestions, looking to remedy for the world's sorrow and pain. Presidents of great universities heads of governments, prominent teachers and preachers, daily newspapers, and powerful business journals, are pointing out the way to safety and reconstruction, "needs Christianity," say some. "Christ in men, will save the world," jisthe cry of many. The church is the only hope of the world," say others. And it all amounts to the vital truth, that only personal, loving, self-delivery service, as Christ taught it, and exemplified in his own life, will heal the sick and the poor. There is no other remedy, no other medicine. Our message today, is personal service. To prove my statement, let us begin with God. God is a servant of his people. He has provided all things abundantly. Every want for body, soul, spirit, health and wisdom has been fulfilled for personal purpose. Our little planet is a wonderful store-house for need of animal and spiritual life. "Day unto day, uttered speech, and night unto night, shewth knowledge." God has sent message after message to His children. Angels and demons have spoken. Spiritually minded people have been healed by deep experiences of their human Souls. God has inspired men and proclaim the Salvation of unselfish service. The Salvation of baring tender, sympathy and ministry of one another. The world has fallen into terrible need, through human selfishness. The unselfishness of God, entering into the race, by the door of Service and Love, alone will rise. God has not been content to do all this. He did not stop at sending messages and inspired men. He came Himself, to minister to his people, to set them the examples of Love and Service, that saves and heals. We find God in all of us, and as the men,介于 the world. This is Christ's answer to the cry of the human Soul," to know and to see God." If we know God, then let us know Christ. He shows us what God is like, what God's heart is, and what His Will is. Christ reveals the Father to us. He reveals him plainly, fully simply, "God is Love," "God is Patience," "God is Forgiveness." "God is a Service." In a time of the anything in this world, He makes God. Nothing else is worth-white. The value of a man's life is measured by His Faith in God, and his ideal of what God really is. When we see Christ nails to the cross by the cruel enemies, dying in agony, and hear his cry, "Forgive them Father, for they know not what they are doing," we know that we have seen this. What is the world needs today. Men and Women, who will die willingly, and lovingly lay down their lives, for the Salvation of others. We praise God, that there have been many who have caught the faming Spirit of God. Love and Service, and brought many to God in their day, and marvel and beauty of such service is, it not only helps the relief of suffering and those in need, but it restores many a lost Child to the Father. St. Paul knew how to endure hardships, as a good Soldier of Jesus Christ. This is the Service God needs TODAY. The Soft God needs to war, to A simply crown to gain His Blood-red banner streams afar, Who follows in His train.

For over twelve years many African students in London have looked upon as a friend upon whom they might impose their slightest wish with a surety of its fulfillment. Tribal History Equally as interesting as the history of the man, is the history of the tribe over which he rules. His to the time when he came to the Ashanti, the Fangs (this tribe were driven by the invading Arabs from their position on the island of the Sarara Desert nearly to their present geographical altitude on the sea coast of West Africa. Here the Asahanti people make successful stand against the Amazba while the Fantis journeyed on and finally settled down near the sea. Slave Traffic The rissitude of the slave traffic preyed upon the Fantis and depopulated them to a very great extent. And it is a reasonable assertion that the ancestors of many African Americans came from this same 300,000 People At present the Akan tribe (over which Chief Aimoh rules, numbers roughly between three and four hundred thousand souls, speaking three dialects (Tchwe, Akan and Feni), more or less interchangeable. It the territory or stool property, as it is locally known, over which the chief has dominion, is Dosha, the aning an accession of 50 squares, or four to five times more as the District of Columbia. This territory is rich in native products: palm oil and kernels; maltogany as well as many valuable stones and minerals; diamonds, rubies, gold, minerals and The Future "What?" I asked, "seems to be the future of commerce for the natives in West Africa?" "The future at present is very gleamous, he is getting poorer, having the means or assistance to market his produce outside of the country, and there being no banking system controlled by Africans, he is at the mercy (the emphasized this woody Bank of British banks; the Bank of British banks; and the Colonial Bank). He went on to explain in some detail and in a rather interesting fashion, how the vested interests represented by the banks had completely crushed attempts at native trade on any profitable basis, using the credits or ad vales, which are absolutely necessary in order to ship and hold native produce for foreign markets. The subsequent result is that the native, being unable to make the markets must sell at home foreigners at whatever price they care to set. 300 Native Shippers Not only has the attitude of the foreign trading houses imperiled the economic stability of the native producer, but the general slump which followed the war was causing unstable conditions. This depression in trade was felt very keenly by the Africans, Whereas, according to Chief Amosh, there were before the war upwards of three hundred native shippers, number today is practically negligible. This means that native produce must not only be sent abroad in foreign bottoms, but that negotiation, the salient of the product, must be carried on through foreign hands. 100,000,000 Pounds of Coconut It is encouraging to note however, that the Chief, who is one of the few remaining shipwives, has coconut alone in the last eight years. And of further interest during that time, he has not suffered any loss due to shortage of weight or receipt of an inferior brand of cocoa in excess of one hundred pounds. This is proof of the bondage with which Arabian producers carry on their trade. In agriculture the natives are steadily falling themselves up by their own sandal straps. Today they are themselves, producing coconut cream nearly at a gross value of nearly 7,000,000 pounds sterling. Other Products Apart from cocoa the Gold Coast, Nigeria and Gambia produce over ten million pounds sterling of ground oil, palm kernels and mahogany.

Severhulme, (whom the American reader will know best as the manufacturer of Lux and Suniljee soap) (whom it titles to lands in West Africa, the British government has remained adamant in its policy that "the land belongs to the people." This prevents in some degree agrandizement and exploitation, the land is mostly owned, the land cannot be sold without the unanimous consent of all parties concerned. But although in this way the native still retails title to his property, he may and does lease it for long periods of time (99 years), to foreign concessionaires. These companies pay a very small sum in annual rental (averages two to six hundred pounds sterling) for most valuable holdings. A most flagrant case of exploitation of this kind may be found in the Ashanti Mining Concession, which has paid to its shareholders a cent of their investment annually for the last twenty years. Hands Out To America When asked for the solution of native problems, Chief Amoh replied, "The solution is this: the native African is anxious to get in touch with his fellow countrymen, to know about banking and who, it is hoped, will open up banks to establish credits for native producers. As for security, African Chiefs and their people are willing to mortgage to their native-African brothers the land and property in solemn pledge of their good faith, a step they will not take for white bankers. "We are willing to allow our brothers to invest in concessions and work them on a share bank. The African American trader is banking facilities and finance. I think it safe to say, that although the Afro-American banker will find much opposition from white banks and merchants in West Africa, he receive the unqualified support of the entire native population. "If such a banker establishes himself in West Africa, with a capital of say, a hundred thousand pounds, he will not only be able to do a large credit business on good terms and security, but he will receive an immediate investment of faith in the immediate investment of double his capital from the native population. Money Buried There are hundreds of thousands of pounds buried in the ground by natives who are suspicious of the trickery and chicagic of foreigners. Just then we were interrupted and pleasantly so by two of Chief Amosh's charming children—charming little girls of light olive complexion—who politely bade us our English account. It was then that I learned in addition that he had two others—a boy and a girl; and that his wife, now deceased, was a white English woman, the second daughter of David Kowalchuk, who was engineer firm of Wilson & Sons, Farlestone, Essex. Business Training "After all," the Chief concluded, "it isn't money that we want so much from our Afro-American klinsem as it is business training enlightenment and understanding." It is entirely probable that Chie Amoah will visit America some time this year.

Business and Industry A Weekly Review Of Labor and Business Conducted by William N. Jones Labor Turnover Reduced By Prohibition, Says Worker. Chicago Urban League Head Declares Volstead Law Has Benefitted Race Economically Paul R. Leach (In The Chicago Record) Is the turnover of labor in industry reduced because of greater sobriety since prohibition, or are workmen sticking closer to their jobs because of an unemployment depression? A. C. Thayer, secretary of the industrial relations department of the Urban League of Chicago, a welfare organization, is seeking to better conditions of degree offered, which thought consideration by industrialists who might be inclined to view the economie effects of prohibition with sceptacles of too rosy a cast. A. L. Foster, executive secretary; Mr. Thayer, and H. N. Robinson, head of the league's department of research and reference, will present a series of surveys to get at the facts that contend the Negro in Chicago, are all three agreed that, for betterment of their race all hard liquor, beer and wines, and beverages that can introduce and cool the blood of the globe. And right on top of that assertion, they bring in odd little bits of fact and reasoning which tend to make the colored man's relation to procreation more complex than the white man's, more complex than the white man's. Rigid Law Unfortunato "Possibly it was unfortunate," said Mr. Foster, who came to Chicago less than a year ago from Canton, O., where he was engaged in similar welfare work, "that the prohibition amendment and Volstol act were passed as they were, and in the rigid form that they were. But my contacts with the NRA believe that the thinking Negroes want neither repeal of the amendment nor modification of the Volstol act. Opposes Segregating Negroes Mr. Foster, born in Utah, educated in Kansas and at Columbia university, might be called a dreamer, to judge by his eyes, at times, for they sometimes see visions. They seemed to be seeing visions as he spoke his next sentence. "That," he said, "is why we impose residential segregation. I is赡quation to the trouble the trouble lies in an increase in law debasement, or a lack of law enforcement. "Before I left Canton, we made a survey of that industrial (steel) district that extended through Canton, Youngstown and Alliance. We found the economic condition of the Negroes greatly improved. Both heads of industries and the clergy felt that was true. Sailors do not work in the steel industry, not the amount of illicit distilling and bootlegging that one finds in Chicago. When the sailors were open, an attraction existed for colored working people that does not now exist, the social contact of the saloon, when nearly every other place is closed to them. The working class now may be making its alcoholic beverages, but as a class it does not have the power. Labor turnover has been reduced among Negro workmen in industry. Monday morning absenteeism has been reduced. Lack of Jobs Causes Distress "There is considerable distress there due to unemployment. Out of 692 men from 15 years of age up, able to work and wanting to work, I found only 299 who were employed. I found that prohibition has had a good effect; that is, economic conditions are very low even for those who are working that, if the saloons were open, they would all be starving to death." "If the saloons were open," Mr. Thayer in cut in dryly, "120 more than the 299 would be employed on jobs around the saloons." "Yes. Robinson drawled, "but a boy for making good money on the north side as runners, or distillers for Italian prohibition violators who did not register ras un-employed." Negroes Good Distillers "Social welfare investigators among Italians discovered, incidentally, an interesting sidelight on the complex distilling and bootlegging business on the north side. White men trust the Negroes pedding white mule. The colored man, coming from a district where a passable grade of mountain deer has been killed, finds the Negroes known how to cook a wash boiler of corn and distill it into hooch that would knock the teeth out of an alligator. Just how prevalent distilling is in the Italian-Negro north side and west side sections is a question the Urban league men cannot answer. They were seekers of unemployment in their surveys. Had they been hired, they would have been in danger many times—and they knew it. Prohibition investigators tracing the history of Chicago, bootlegging tell stories of the ascendancy of the Negro distiller, hill-billy taught, who has supplanted the Jews and Italians on the south side, who concocted messes of recooked alcohol and Johnny Walker inbels that evoked the feeling of not alone with their customers but with prohibition officers as well. "Can't Afford Booze" "There are approximately 6,000 Negroes employed in the stockyards," said Mr. Thayer, "representing some 5,000 families. Their pay ranges from 421-2 cents for common labor to 721-2 cents an hour for skilled. Under the Alschuler agreement they have a guarantee of forty hours of wages—which most of them receive—this would mean about $17 a week. If the alschuler existed today around "the yards," as they did five years ago, these men getting $17 a week, stopping off for a few rounds on their horses. Yes, prohibition is helping the Negro economically—he cannot afford to spend money on liquor!" SENATOR URGES THRIFT AT INSURANCE MEET Hon. Frank B. Willis Says Money Commands Respect And Means Power SUPREME LIFE HAS 2500 POLICY HOLDERS Half A Million Of Insurance In Force After Five Years Operation Columbia, Ohio.—(A.N.P.)—"The Ato-American has won his place in art, in music, in education and upon the battlefield, but let me urge upon you, as man to man and friend to friend, not to overlook the value of business," said Senator Frank B. Willis in delivering the principal address last Thursday at the dedication of the new home office building of the Supreme Life Insurance Company of this city. "Get-money not for the sake of money alone, but because of the power and prestige it gives," he continued. "The white business man who looks across at his colored neighbor in business and the business man with business methods, better business methods, better stock, a better car than he possesses, finds himself with a new and more wholesome respect for his darker neighbor than anything else can give him." Ralse this good company to success and don't stop at that, if possible, rear another to still greater. The company has 2,500 policy holders with a half million insurance in force. President Midian O. Bousfield of Liberty Life Insurance Company, Albion L. Holsley, Rev J. Wesley Carter, Robert S. Abbott, and Claude A. Barnett were other speak- The officers of the company are Truman K.

Roddy is First Vice-President. Negro Rail Men Ask Increase Hundreds of colored freight handlers of the Southern Railway System Lines, affiliated with the National Association Railway Mechanics, Helpers, Laborers and Freight Handlers, have filed complaint with the officials of the Southern Railway Company in a matter of mis-application of wage rules, effective May, 1921. The wages of these employees were arbitrarily reduced by the officials of the Southern Railway Company by coercing them and forcing them to sign an agreement affecting a wage cut, at a large number of upper station stations. The freight handlers receive 25 per cent per hour. The fact is, there is no uniformity in the application of wages paid to colored Freight Handlers in the Southern System. This matter will claim the attention of every railroad employee who is represented at the American October 22th. They will put up a strong demand and need their assistance, and if necessary their financial support to this fight for Negro Labor Congress in Chicago, justice and fair play.

C., 'C. P. B.'—In a survey recently made by the Women's Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor, it was found that of the two million married Negro women in salalah occupations Negro women comprise two-thirds a much larger proportion than the percentage of the Negro racial group in the total population of the country. The further found that in agricultural occupations the female Negro workers actually outnumber native-born white women, taking the lead in all occupations, common to agricultural life. When it is considered that these women are the offspring of whom are between 25 and 44 years of age, are engaged in their leisure time in caring for homes and children it is a remarkable fact that their, inclusion in work forces is from one-third to one-half of the number of married women at work in general and selected occupations, as the case may be. FINANCE CORPORATION STARTS WITH $50,000 FINANCE CORPORATION STARTS WITH $50,000 By Telegram, A. N. P. Durham, N. C.—The National Negro Finance Corporation announced today through Secretary Manager, W. Gomez, that it was ready for business.

Officers and stockholders are assured of being able to secure ample funds as the capital stock is being purchased. The purpose of the National Negro finance corporation, as described by Dr. R. R. Moton, its president, and C. C.

Slavery Found In African Colony Slavery Found In African Colony Washington, D. C.—(P.N.S.)—Slavery has been found in the Portuguese Africa, and reported to the League of Nations, following an investigation made by two white scientists of New York who cited the alleged practice of the government in "farming out" to planters all workers unable to pay head tax. These victims are forced to work in the fields for months, and sometimes for years, without pay. It charges that deportation of workers by the thousand is a widespread practice. It is common to see women with habies on their backs forced to do road work. The head tax usually requires six months of each year to work off. Flogging is a most common practice, and is often unknown. The report characterizes the situation as infinitely worse than slavery. Turner Gets Radio License Rufus P. Turner, of Washington, D.

St. Mary St. — Only One Place 4t-July18 GOOD MORNING JUDGE They say, "a little talk with my Jesus makes it right," but a little talk between Walter Ware, 718 Dearal alley, and Ray Scott, 5 Penn street, in a police call did not accomplish quite so much last week. Ware had been cut and Scott had been accused of doing the cutting, and he was arrested on the police when he was arrested that he had taken a shash at his pal during a Fourth of July altercation. But the two had been long "bunkies," and had gotten along alright except when "white mule" was working over time. Although Ware had ordered his pal's arrest, they talked over ever since, and unanimously agreed that both of them would know nothing and say less at the trial. The Judge: How cut you? Wares: "Search me. Your Honor, somebody must have sneaked up behind me and cut me. I really and truly don't know who it was. Judge: Well, I don't know whether or you, but to show you how much stock I put in it. I will make your fine $5 and costs. Scott is dismissed. NINE YEAR HEROINE STILL AWAITS REWARD NINE YEAR HEROINE STILL AWAITS REWARD RAILWAY OFFICIALS STILL INVESTIGATING ACT, THEY TELL REPORTER Inquiries at the offices of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad this week failed to disclose what reward Easter Frances Hill, nine-year-old heroine who flogged a train at Augusta, Md., would receive. According to Mrs. Martha W. Hill, mother of the girl, nothing yet has been done. In a letter to Attorney Gobert Macheth, she states that she thinks the child should have a reward. She says: "She risked her life, the little red hat she was wearing actually touched the engine as it went by. "Following the storm on Monday, I knew her for some eggs. She came running back and said, 'I can hardly get up the track,' and we asked her why. "She said, there was a large tree across the track, and I went up to the crossing to flag the train." Mrs. Hill has no husband, is a pauper, an orphan, and can never give Easter to a 11-year-old son by washing in the neighborhood. She has also been ill for several months. Miss Eva Jessye, of the AFROAMERICAN, who is interesting herself in the matter, has interviewed Mrs. Hill and has assured her that they are making the necessary investigation prior to giving the proper reward.

Jereme of St. Louis, Mo., writes this paper of the accident which occurred July 11th. Following the collision, says Mr. Jereme, a man, a woman and a child were planned in one of the machines, when it overturned. Gasoline from the tank, began to flow, over the wreck, as several parties hurriedly tried to right the overturned car in vain. Rushing from the crowd, a man tore away the curtains and snatched the woman through the opening. He then rescued the other two in the machine, and placing them in a car belonging to H. Carter, 1001 Woodyear Street, which he saw standing near, he accompanied them to the hospital where they were given first aid treatment. The hero proves to be Robert Hicks, 1117 Carrolton Avenue.
