Walter White Gets Names Of S. C. Lynchers TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 N. A. A. C. P. ASS'T. SECRETARY ON SCENE, UNCOVERS REIGN OF LAWLESS TERROR Full Evidence Turned Over to the Governor of South Carolina NEW YORK, OCT. 29.—Names of lynchers and full details of the lynching of one colored woman, Bertha Lowman, and her brother and cousin, at Aiken, South Carolina, in the early morning of October 8, have been obtained in an investigation on the spot by Walter White, Assistant Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and all the facts submitted in a letter to Governor McLeod of South Carolina. A lawless reign of terror in the State of South Carolina in the vicinity of the lynching city of Aiken is disclosed by the the N. A. A. C. P. Assistant Secretary, who brings to light the following Phone: VANDIKE 9244 VOLUME 40 Walter W. N. A. A. C. P. ASS'T. SECRET. COVERS REIGN OF LAW Full Evidence Turned Over South Car NEW YORK, OCT. 29.—Names tails of the lynching of one colored and her brother and cousin, at Aike, early morning of October 8, have been tion on the spot by Walter White, Assis- tional Association for the Advancement all the facts submitted in a letter South Carolina. A lawless reign of terror in the S the vicinity of the lynching city of A the N. A. A. C. P. Assisstent Secretary. who brings to light the following startling facts: 1. The lynching was planned and executed by members of the Ku Klux Klan. 2. Officers of the law took part in the lynching and a number of them acted as "official executioners" of the mob victims. 3. The prisoners were turned over to the mob by the Sheriff and his assistants, who were parties to the crime. 4. Reputable white citizens living in that identity are in terror of their lives from the lawless Ku Klux Klan ring and go heavily armed, bar their defens at night, and have been "praying to God" for some person from outside the State to come in and bare the facts. Walter White, who has just returned to New York, made the following statement: "I went to Aiken for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and as Special Correspondent of the New York World. I found a situation in South Carolina which beggars description. Among the persons with whom I talked were some of the best known and most respectable white citizens of South Carolina, including lawyers, newspaper editors, farmers and business men. I found them heavily armed and terrified because of the activities of the Klan and allied criminals. The predicament of colored people can easily be imagined. "Early in 1924, Sam Lowman, his wife, Annie and their children moved from Saluda County where htey had lived all their lives to the farm of a white man named Hartley, 13 miles from Aiken. As a result of a quarrel between this man and another white man, the latter sought to embarrass Hartley by notifying the Sheriff that Lowmans were selling whiskey. I talked with a number of white people and without exception they declared that the Lowmans were an entirely industrious, law-abiding and respected family. As a result of the anonymous letter to the Sheriff, Sheriff H. H. Howard and Deputy Sheriff's Nollie Robinson, R. L. McElhaney and A. D. Sheppard went to the Lowman home on April 25, 1925. Two weeks earlier, on a Sunday night, a crowd of Klansmen robed and hooded had called Demon Lowman, 22-year old son, from his home and whipped him. SHERIFFS SHOWED NO BADGEES "When the tour white Sheriffs in plain clothes, and with no badges, approached the Lowman home, Mrs. Annie Lowman, the mother, 55 years old, was making soap in the backyard and her daughter Bertha, 27, was sweeping the yard. Sam Lowman, the father, had gone to the mill to have meal ground, while Demon Lowman and Clarence Lowman, 14 years of age and his cousin, who had been raised by Sam Lowman and his wife, were plewing in a field 100 yards away. "When Mrs. Lowman and her daughters saw the white men approaching the house they thought it wisest to go inside until they had passed. The Sheriffs drew guns and started running towards the house to surround it. Bertha Lowman screamed. Demon and Clarence ran to the house as the Sheriffs rushed into it. Sheriff Howard and Bertha Lowman reached the back step at the same time. The Sheriff knocked Bertha out of the way with his left foot, his pistol clutched in his right hand, about to her to stand back. In the make Deputy Sheriff Robinson fixed and killed Mrs. Annie Lowman. Bertha ed very of Devonshire conceived Bertha next Judges the dilemma, rearranged better. "When decide tant of Lowman Lowman was shot twice in the left breast just above the heart and once through the abdomen. Claence Lowman was also severely injured while Demon Lowman was shot but not wounded seriously. Sheriff Howard was killed by gunshot wounds and, in the first trial three state's witnesses testified that a pistol bullet went through his head. The Sheriffs had pistols. Clarence Lowman had a shotgun while Demon Lowman had a pistol but at no time was anywhere near Sheriff Howard or at a point where he could have shot the Sheriff. In the trial it was brought out that the white men did not in any manner indicate they were officers of the law. "Five of the Lowmans were arrested and moved hastily to the penitentiary at Columbia to avoid a lynching. According to the record of the South Carolina State Supreme Court, the shooting took place on April 25, Howard's funeral on the 26th (at which were present more than 200 Klansmen in full regalia), inquest was held on the 27th, the court convened on May 4, the indictment of the. Lowmans was had the same day, the defendants were arraigned on the 9th and placed on trial May 12. Feeling was so high in Alken, according to the defense brief in the Supreme Court, it was published to the world that it would be difficult to obtain lawyers for the Lowmans in Alken. Attorneys were appointed by the court, who merely went through the gestures of defending them. In his charge to the jury, Judge H. F. Rice, knowing of the danger of the lawyers, even though appointed by the court, apologized for the formal defense made by them and impressed upon the jury the fact that 'none of them wanted to do it.' "Bertha, Demon and Clarence were found guilty of murder with a recommendation of mercy in the case of Bertha. Demon and Clarence were sentenced to die on June 12, 1925 and Bertha to life imprisonment. It is worthy of note that Bertha and Clarence Lowman's lives were hanging in the balance from their wounds at the time they were placed on trial and they were taken from the hospital to the court room. "The case was so outrageous that N. J. Frederick, a colored attorney of Columbia, no his own initiative, entered the case and filed an excellent appeal to the State Supreme Court for a review of the cases, resulting in a reversal of the convictions and the remanding of the defendants for a new trial. "The three defendants were again placed on trial October 5th, at Alken, Judge Lanham presiding. Mr. Frederick retained L. G. Southard, a white attorney of Spartanburg, paying him $125 out of his own pocket. Megan Frederick and Southard put up a magnificent defense and completely demolished the State's case. On October 7, a motion was made for a directed verdict of not guilty in the case of Demon Lowman. It was generally conceded in Alken that Clarence and Bertha would be freed by the jury next day. At 5 in the afternoon Judge Lanham granted the motion for the dismissal of the cast against Demon. He was however immediately rearrested on a charge of assault and battery and recommended to jail. THE LYNCHING PLANNED BY KU KLUK KLAN "Within one hour after the Judge's decision, news had been sent to as distant a point as Columbia that the 8 Lowmans were to be lynched that (Continued on Page Five) A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL Daly Store Appoints Colored Manager of Branch Store, 25th and Hooper Ave. Demonstrating their faith in the ability of one of our group to successfully conduct business and at the same time give due recognition to their patrons, the great Daly Chain Store Corporation has taken an ad- MR. M. B. McKENZIE vanced step and made Mr. Matthew B. McKenzie manager of its branch store at 25th St. and Hooper Ave. We are glad to note that this corporation has been broadguaged and big enough to accord this recognition which we trust will be followed by other business enterprises in the various avenues of effort. This matter was brought about largely through the efforts of Mrs. Zora Ward McKenzie who worked most faithfully to secure this just recognition. She canvassed the community, prepared the petition to the Daly Company and simply would not give up the fight for recognition in a business where all of its patrons were of the Colored race. We want to see the people of this section demonstrate their appreciation by giving to Manager McKenzie their hearty support. His success means that this is just the beginning of giving places of this kind to our group. APPEALS TO HIGHER COURT (Bv A. N. P.) Washington, Nov. 4.—Kate Williams, who has been sentenced to serve six years in the penitentiary on a charge of manslaughter in connection with the death of her husband, Fred Williams, who died December 7, last; from burns received a week previous, has noted an appeal to the Court of Appeals in the form of a brief submitted on her behalf. In an alteration with her husband she is alleged to have inflicted burns from the which he died in a local hospital a week later. Laykayette, La., Nov. 4—Susan Woodard was just given had "deli- erated" a few minutes, was found guilty of murder and sentenced to be hanged. Woodard, while confessing to the another of James Guildard, a Southern Pacific Railway employee, claimed that he shot in self-defense while being elected from a box car in the yards in July. Unable to withstand the inducements offered him w with a larger sphere in which to work, with a greater future before him S. B. Danley Jr. assistant probation officer of Los Angeles county has resigned his position and in a fortnight will leave for his new field of endeavor at Springfield, Ill. The people of Los Angeles realize they are toiling one of its brightest stars and most efficient officials and all request his leaving, however they are charitable in the premises when they realize his new situation gives him a greater scope for service and advancement. Mr. Danley is a California product and do such is the West's contribution to the East. His parents, Rev. and Mrs. Danley came to California in 19044 and settled in Pasadena. Mr. Danley therefore received all of his education in California, going through the grammar and high schools of Pasadena and subsequently finishing college work at the University of Southern California. It is note worthy indeed that Mr. Danley successfully passed the Civil Service requirements for probation officer and received his appointment four months before his graduation. This was in March, 1923. H's time has been that of unselfish devotion to the interests of the Negro Youth. Many of whom have already voiced their regret that they will lose such a friend and helper as they found in Mr. Danley. He is a number of the American Association of Social Workers, the National Prohibition Officers Association, the California Probation Officers Association, California Conference of Social Work, Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity the Masons and many other professional, social and civic organisations. Mr. Danly did not by any means limit his service to official limitations but always took a lively interest in the community and civic enterprises of both Los Angeles and Pasadena. Another happy situation in Mr. Danly's career and admiration of his friends is the fourthcoming: announcement that before his departure he will take unto himself a helpmeet in the person of Miss -Theeresa Bell-Harper of Pasadena, the daughter of Mrs. Lena Harper of Sacramento who is the daughter of that militant trail blazer and one of California's foremost citizens, B. A. Johnson. N. A. A. C. P. Notes The Association wishes to thank supporters of the Gray-Murdock Recital. Below a criticism that was quite general: The Violin and Piano Recital of Mrs. Murdock and Mr. John Gray at Second Baptist Church lat Tuesday night was one of many fine Recitals it has been my good fortune and pleasure to attend. Mrs. Murdock and Mr. Gray are splendid artists and the support given them on this occasion most certainly did attest the fine appreciation Los Angeles has developed for music of the highest class. I shall look forward with happy anticipation toward hearing them next year, and truly hope that they have set a precedent for all aspiring young musicians among us in the West. Thanks to the N. A. A. C. P. and Mrs. A. C Richardson. (Delayed—Published By Request) The Independent Church of Christ was the scene of a most picturesque and beautiful wedding, when Mayme Wiley Love, talented and winsome daughter of Mrs. J. B. Love, plighted her tooth to K. Carson Payne Jr., a son of Mrs. Lorena Perkens. A most gorgeous fall setting was chosen for Mrs. Love, by Ralph Porter. Every detail and appointment being made to stand in one grand picture. Real Florida beach leaves of various fall trees ranging from golden brown to purple weed are densely arranged, as a manmade background, the unique platform, a terraced arrangement of green grass and fernery was approached from the smaller nails by broad stairs. A sim- The New Medical Sorority Home In 1922 there were thirty-five young women attending the Medical School of Howard University, that year. Dr. Mary Jane Watkins, who is now practicing in Pittsburgh, Pa., thought of the idea of a medical sorority, so with the support of the other young women, the first colored medical sorority was set up. Twenty wives of the men at Freedman's Hospital and at the Medical School headd by Mrs. W. A. Warfield, wife of Dr. W. A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief at Freedman's hospital acted as patrons or associate members to the sorority. On the recommendation of Dr. Edward Ballock, 'dean of the medical school, the sorority was granted a charter and was made national. The Psi Pet Sorority has a total membership of 125 medical women who have either graduated from an accredited medical school or have successfully passed a State Board. On May 26, 1924 the Beta Chapter was set up by Emily Brown Childress, Ph. G., with ten members. The associate body consisting of wives of some of the medical men together with a few representative citizens' wives was headed by Mrs. J. T. Whittaker. Since May 1924 the thought of a sorority house has been formed in the minds of the members. There were three benefit dances given ple altar draped in white satin and lace with golden candelabra from which willowly tapers of yellow gave forth a soft glow with masses of white maline in cloud effect surmounting all. The chancel, a study in delicate greenery, was further beautified by scores of giant yellow chrysanthemums being attractively arranged the entire length of the rostrum. Graceful fronds of golden rod being also effectively used, its, feestery delicacy lending beautifully as a hedging. Prior to the entrance of the bridal party, Mrs. Bessie Dones, who as an artist is without a peer, appeared in the background, under the glow of giant floodlights, the entire church having been darkened to represent Dawn. With that grace and ease, she beautifully rendered "At Dawning." Miss Hazel Gottschke presiding wonderfully at the organ. Mendelsohn's March peeled forth and the bridesmaids, Miss Henrietta Montgomery Fern Caldwell, Ruth Johnson and Eliza Robinson, appeared in the channel, under rays of strong spotlights. These wore chic French frocks, yellow crepe de chine in basque effect, trimming of vari-colored flowers, adorned the skirts which were finished in deep transparent hems of black tulle. Parisienne model picture hats in black pan velvet with a single golden butterfly and streamers, the only ornament. Opera pumps of black oratin and sheer chiffon hose completed their attire. They carried huge Japanese art fans of hel-oetro otore with yellow premier roses, orchid sweet peas and cyclamen blossoms attached with numerous streamers of orchid ribbon falling in shower effect. Entering the church they marched the side aisles and were met in the rear by the groomsmen, Bill Steard, Bennie Arbon, Glance Stevens and Payne Middleton, respectively, all approaching the altar by the middle aisle and walking alternately and alone. Walter Webster (nee Ruth Sullivan) moved Mia Loree, a matron of honor, but grown, an elaborate combination of gown, an embroidered, heavily healed in rhinestones with a heart-shaped shoulder drape of green tulle was held in place by a beautiful rose of contrasting shade; she wore an imported black picture hat with tulle for this purpose, the largest of the three was the dance given at Shrine's Auditorium at which $1225.00 was cleared. As the result of this dance Rho Psi Phi paid down on a house and opened the doors of their sorority house to the public to view Monday, October 25th, with Mrs. R. Henry as matron. Several useful gifts were received from individuals, sororities, clubs and fraternities of which the sorority is thankful for. It is situated at 1259 West 36th Place, EMpire 4864, five blocks from the University of Southern California and two blocks from Vermont Ave, which car line roes directly to the University of California, Southern Branch. Serving to be a big sister to all university women. Betta Chapter has offered their rooms in the sorority house for $12.00 a month which includes the privilege of cooking, washing and ironing; telephone, piano and sewing machine service. Young women wishing to board with the matron can do so by making special arrangements. The sorority thanks the more than 250 guests who attended the Open house on House Warming day for the many favors they presented and the many expressions of good-will and hopes of future achievement. of peach green and gold, silver slippers and accessories completing her novel attire; she carried an arm bouquet of premier roses and fern. Miss Adele Kemp as maid of honor in a most striking gown of orchid chiffon velvet, richly betrimmed in rhinestones, with hat of silver lace and slippers of orchid and silver combination, also carried premier roses, as an arm bouquet. The auditrioum was then flooded with light, for 'twas "morn" and the bride preceded by Mellonne Temple and La Verne Lattamore in darling frocks of daintily beruffled archid and peach crepe de chine strewed petals in the parch of the bride. She in all her regal sweetness could not have appeared prettier. Her gown an exquisite creation imported Crepe Roma was daintily embroidered in Motifs of silk Chemille. Imported Spanish lace was effectively used and she wore only a pearl broach, a family heirloom. The beautiful embroidered veil was worn in Coronet fashion, held in place a simple, but pretty arrangement of Orange Blossoms. Slippers of satin and accessories to match completed her trousseau. Approaching the altar unattended, she made a beautiful picture as she carried a beautiful' white kid bible in shower effect of Orange Blossoms and Orchids. She ascended the stairs on the arm of the Groom, attended by Bennie Morris as best man. The beautiful marriage lines were hailed by Rev. N. P. Gregg, pastor of Independent Church and Elder P. R. Rogers of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, of which the bride is a prominent member. Immediately afterwards the party was ushered to Christians Tavern, where a beautiful reception was held to a large concourse of well wishing friends, Mr. and Mrs. Payne leaving shortly after for a short honeymoon to be at home to friends 1857 East 556th street temporarily. She wore a suitely tailored mid-might blue tailored suit of French Charme, with hat and accessories to match. The popular couple were the recipients of many a valuable and useful presents, chap well remembered by their many white friends as well as colored friends and people in all areas. They were posted in attendance at the wedding. Before this is read the battle of the ballots will have been fought and victory and defeat will have been embiased on the banners o the many aspirants for public favor. Propheny fortells the success of the national tckel sponsored by the administration. In Californit it is a foregone conclusion that the nominees of the Republican pparty will receive an overwhelming endorsement from the voters. The result of the national tickets in the republic can strongholds of Pennsylvania and Illinois, at this writing seems doomed to defeat. The "Slush Fund" scandal will make it very hard sliding for Vare of the Keystone State and Smith of the Sucker State. They have been side-tracked by the National Committee. President Coolidge has designated Vance H. Marchbanks, Jr., as a candidate at large from the United States to take entrance examination to the United States Military Academy, West Point. Vance H. Marchbanks, Sr., is Warrant Officer of the 10th U.S. Cavalry and is stationed at Tucson, Arizona. We will wait with patience and see what excuse they will have for turning down young Marchbanks. It will be a great surprise to the majority of the Race if, even though he passes a perfect mental and physical test, some means were not found to prevent his entrance. It is sited that the Navy Football team has threatened to cancel the game with Colgate unless the colored player, Ray Vaughn, is kept on the bench. That savors of the attitude which the Navy has assumed toward the Colored people during the past decade. It is a rare thing to see a Colored sailor other than in the mires. The day has long passed when they manned the guns and did a seaman's duty. Occasionally one will be found stoking the boilers or water tender. Yes, Preudice, we refer to racial prejudice, has drawn the imaginary line of demarkation and the colored seaman is enlisted for culinary purposes only. The country has forgot the gallantry of the men who fought with Perry on Lake Erie or the indomitable courage of Farragut's black sailors. The Navy of today is composed mostly of snobs who stay the limit of enlistment in order to receive the retirement pay which enables them to become barnacles on the craft of progress. We hope that Colgate will give the proper reply to the band of gentlemen, who are being educated at the expense of the people and that a protest to the Secretary of the Navy, Wilbur, will receive recognition. Reading the comments of the South Carolina press on the lynching of the two Negro men and one Negro woman, it would seem that the perpetrators of that damnable crime would soon be brought to the Bar of Justice. But, so far, we are compelled to believe that the blatant utterance of the Press and the demonstration of the Governor is but a camouflage to cover the desastrictness of the act. Until we see the leaders of that mob sentenced and hear the prison doors clang behind them—It is asking too much (?) that they have their necks stretched—we will be pessimistic as to their punishment. Recently, in the city of Brotherly Love, members of the A. M. E. Church formed in a procession and held service at the tomb of Richard Allen, Sr. Bishop of the denomination. Notwithstanding the criticism of a Metropolitan Journal "that the A. M. E. connection is rusting," it is a splendid sign when we see them averaging the buildings of the east and entailing an inspiration for the building of the future. Let us hope that they will not dwell too long in reviewing the greatness of the past or they may, indeed, truly run. Ye advancement of ungrateful students read this and if your "think tanks" are not corroded or the water of the brain turn, it to concrete, you will see the fallacy of your arrogance and the painful injustice which you are seeking to bring on the youth of the Race because of your hateful insurance. This in New Orleans where no doubt, many of the proponents of segregated schools come from. "A new school for college has been opened in the 17th Ward (New Orleans)." The school is tamperably located in the basement of St. Paul A. M. E. Church with an enrollment of 844 pupils and four teachers. This will all be needed in this ward as the normal school for colored men, three and four students.

Upton COURAGE roses to make up a large part of our lives. It matters not whether we be rich or poor, strong or weak; it takes courage to conquer, courage to reach your goal, courage is being shown every day by someone. The deed performed may be ever so small, nevertheless in all probability it took courage for that particular person to perform it. But it is the exceptional feats of courage that are brought to your attention. In Italy you have one of the exceptional feats which stands out like the statue of Liberty before a clear sky. Mussolini, Italian rPremier, leader of The Black Shirts, Champion of Fascism has for the sixth time been the target for an assassin's bullet, but still possesses the COURAGE to go fearlessly on in face of death as the head of the fascist party without the slightest sign of nervousness, his slogan being, "Live in Danger." How many of you could live in danger without becoming terror-stricken, hysterical or eventually insane? Mussolini's would-be assassin must have had an abundance of courage, a mere youth 18 years old attempting the life of a premier in the midst of 50,000 of his friends. He could not have hoped to come out alive as the case was, he was killed before the smoke from his automatic had cleared away. This, my friends, is Courage. Pullman Porters, there are twelve thousand of you, have you COURAGE? PRESIDENT COOLIDGE President Coolidge in a message to the public last week, urged all voters to go to the polls last Tuesday. His message was, let no voters abdicate their sovereign right of self-government at the election by failing to vote. Well spoken, Mr. President but what about the thousands of railroad men who are forced to be on the road on election day? Would not the election be more complete, if there were some provision made for them to cast their vote on the trains, or at their terminal? Many railroad men who have registered year in and year out have had their hopes blasted politically by being sent out of town the day before election.

New York, Nov. 4.—The Pullman car porters are "justified legally as shall as morally" in writing to help a manymen of self-organization by voting in the Employees' Convention. Plan electors of the Pullman Company, which begins today, in the edition of Donald R. Richards, prominent labor attorney of Chicago, and counsel for the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. Hehberg's message was sent the porters in response to a request for legal advice from the man as to whether they could be compelled to vote in the elections of the company union in spite of the fact that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters has presented their case against the company to the Railway Mediation Board. The company's policy of forcing porters to vote in the Pullman Porters elbowed Association, by refusing to allow them to go out on runs and holding up their pay until they had registered a vote, has led them to expect to meet a similar situation in the company plan elections. (By N. A. P.) New York, Nov. 4.—The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and Maids gathered in St. Luke's hall on Thursday in a memorial service for Gene Debs, a fighter in their cause. As far back as 1894, Eugene V. Debs was fighting the injustices heaped upon the laboring man, and he championed the cause of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters to the day of his death. In letters and talks with the leaders of the Brotherhood, whom he claimed as friends, Debs indorsed the cause of the Pullman porters. Judge Jacob Panken, socialist candidate for governor of New York, Joseph Schlesberg, secretary-treasurer of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers, K. Philip Randolph, organizer of the Brotherhood, and Frank Grosswah, personal friend of Debs, were the speakers. Many prominent union leaders from all over New York have signified their intention of being present. The Ink Slingers will meet at the Egyptian Tea Room the 6th inst at one o'clock.

A very pretty hand embroidered boudoir set to be raffled off at a later date made by t: club officers was also to be seen. The art work of Meshames Mary Maxwell won the blue ribbon, and that of Geneva Peris is the white ribbon at the National State Institutes of Colored Women's Clubs at Oakland this year.

Within the same house the Ku Klux Klan held a meeting in the office of a prominent white attorney of Aiken who had been recently elected to the State Legislature. At this meeting plans were perfected for the lynching and also plans were discussed, but abandoned, to tar and feather Mr. Frederick and to castrate Mr. Southard, the white attorney. A prominent and respectable white lawyer of Spartanburg warned Judge Lanham and Solicitor Bert Carter that a lynching was in the air. Despite this the Lowmans were committed to jail with only one guard whereas plans had been made to remove the defendants hastily should they be convicted. "Shortly after midnight a police officer of Alken forced automobilists to remove cars from around the jail so that the lynchers would have a place to park their cars. According to reliable informants Sheriff Robinson, Deputy Sheriffs McElhaney and A.D. Sheppard, and Traffic Policeman Salley dragged Bertha Lowman from her cell, got the other two defendants and handed them over to the mob. After the mob had secured the prisoners two shots were fired inside the jail and not, as Sheriff Robinson claimed, when he was trying to prevent entry of the mob into the jail. "The mob numbering between 30 and 40 started out York street on the Dixie highway to a tourist camp about two miles from Aiken. On the way Clarence Lowman jumped from the car in which he was held. He was shot down and recaptured. In order to prevent telltale blood marks, a rope was tied to the back of the car and the other end of it around Clarence's body. In this manner he was dragged about a mile to the place of execution. The members of the mob stated that Bertha was the hurdest one to kill. She was shot but not killed instantly. She dragged herself over the ground and, as one member of the mob put it, "bleated like, a goat." Another member of the mob, slightly more deceitful, said that she barged to potentially for her life and convinced about so that a number of shots had to be fired before one found a vital spot and ended her agony. FACTS GIVEN TO SOUTH CAROLINA'S GOVERNOR "I have furnished Thomas G. McLeod, Governor of South Carolina, in a six-page letter, every detail regarding the lynching. I have given him the name of the member of the mob who was accorded the honor of being executioner but whose nerve failed him. I have furnished him with the names of the three men who did act as executioners and of their two assistants. I have furnished him with the names and addresses and occupations of twenty-two members of the mob telling the Governor in detail of the part played by each one of them at the lynching. I have furnished him with the names of eleven other persons who were very close to the lynching as spectators but who did not actively participate in it. "This list includes besides the Sheriff and his deputies other so-called law-enforcement officers, prominent business men and three men related to the Governor and the name of at least one member of the Grand Jury investigating the lynching. I also furnished the Governor with the names of four white men and one colored man incarcerated in the Afken jail on the night of the lynching, and who saw the Sheriff and his deputies drag Bertha Lowman from her cell and turn her over to the mob. I have also stated to the Governor that I can furnish him with the names and addresses of most influential and respectable white citizens of the community who will testify to the correctness of the facts set forth, if the Governor will guarantee them protection from the vengeance of the Klan and the lynchers. ATTEMPT TO STAGE RACE RIOT "Following the lynching an attempt was made to stage a race riot to cover the guilt of the murderess. Agents of the Klan went around Aiken saying the Negroes were armed and were going to 'rise in the night and kill all the white people.' The same tactics were used as in the famous Phillips County, Arkansas, riots of 1919, which the N. A. A. C. exposed. Fortunately this dastardly attempt did not succeed. "I learned that the inevitable aftermath of Klan activities is now being seen in South Carolina. The element of membership which acted as a restraining influence in the Klan and which entered the movement believing it to be a law-enforcement body as it claimed, has largely resigned. The local Klans are now in the hands of murderers, bootleggers, operators of stills and other criminals. As I have said the law-abiding element of whites are living in a state of constant terror and indeed are more afraid of the Klan and of the lower order of whites than are Negroes. WHITE MEN ARMED FOR DEFENSE AGAINST KLAN FENSE AGAINST KLAN "In the home of one white man, formerly a high officer in the Klan, and who resigned when he found out the nature of the movement, he showed me an automatic pistol which he carried in his trousers pocket and a .38 calibre revolver in a holster. He told me that if he went only across the road in front of his house after nightfall, a distance of some 75 feet, he strapped on his person, in addition, a cartridge belt and two .45 calibre arm revolvers. "This man showed me a collection of 30 guns including rifles, shotguns and revolvers which he had in his home for self-protection. For four years the members of the Klan from which he has resigned have been attempting to kill him. The late Sheriff Howard, the present Sheriff Robinson and the present Deputy Sheriffs were all expelled from the Klan some years ago for 'conduct unbecoming a Klansman.' But they were later readmitted. On the anniversary of Sheriff Howard's death, the Klan held a celebration at his grave in the Graniteville Cemetery at which, according to the Columbia State, more than 1,500 persons, many of them clad in Klan robes, were furnished with free lunches and lemonade and listened to enologies of the late Sheriff. This celebration took place while the State Supreme Court was deliberating on the appeal for a new trial for the Lowmans. "This makes the forty-first lynching I have investigated, besides eight race riots. In none of them have I seen the deprivacy, barbarity, and terrorism which exists in and near Aikin. One of the white men with whom I talked and who gave me much valuable information, put his hand on my shoulder as I was leaving and said: 'Mr. White, work into your story the fact that you were sent by God. For seven weeks a group of white people has met here in my house every night and prayed that some man from out of the State be sent to open up this mass of corruption and to publish to the world the terrible state of affair prevailing here.

Trogans, undefeated this season went down to defeat last Saturday before 76,000 fans at the great Coliseum in a battle with Stanford University. And the odds had stood 10 to 7 against Stanford and the Trojans counted a sure winner. But Pop Warner did not pit his strate- A. gy and re-built machine in vain against Howard Jones' Victorious Trojans, so beat them in a close 13 to 12 epheal gridiron grapple. Brice Taylor, the great Colored star kicked off each time and his mighty booting is no doubt partly responsible for the advances the Trojans made, but in the last few minutes of the play, at the critical time when two points would have won for U.

Goblin and elves walked out on you suddenly from the dim nooks, witches, clawps and piergettes, materdors and ministers, doms and duwnas, gargoyle heads with enormous' noises and pretty pink masks from behind which mischievous eyes flashed.

Grudge fight?— Say, all the so-called grudge fights ever held will have nothing on this one for these boys see in each other the only rival, and stumbling block to future laurels; and have both expressed themselves so forcefully to their various followers that there will be venom in every punch. It will be hard to say which will win, but Gans should do the trick with his superior skill and zoxing ability. Australian Paper Praises Eagle Thomas It is not the policy of the Eagle Sport Editor to use the trusty scis-sport Editor to use the trusty scis-scissors but the following is clipped from an Australian newspaper published a few years ago. KNOCK-OUT VICTORIES Thomas has come to Australia with the highest credentials. According to the American record books Thomas won the amateur bantam championship of New ork on two occasions—only exceptionally good boxers have held that title—and since joining the professionals he has won over 100 contests. Most of the boxers Thomas has defended are un known in Australia, but included among them were several considered to be in the running for the American bantam (professional) championship. Thomas is a boxer of the sensational type. He punches with great force; always carries the fight to his opponent and is remarkably tough, even for a negro. Thomas is expected to start a series of knock-out victories with Congress. FANS KICK ON CALLA- HAN-TIPLITZ BOUT MANAGEMENT AT MAJESTIC THEATRE USE 'JIM-CROW' METH- ODS AT "STRUTTIN' SAM" SHOW Interviewed as to the reasons for cooping up the Colored patrons in a part of the house like occupants of a pest house one of the management attempted to vindicate itself by say- ing that he considered it perfectly all right as the white patrons would rather that arrangement and besides the colored people would not or could not pay the higher prices. He was told in rebuke that the city is there no directing cause at Theatres like Gramman's Egyptian by colored occupying main floor seats but that for Grand Opera at the Philharmonic Auditorium they are welcomed and pay the high prices for seats, one of which would buy several at the Majestic. The show is good, the performers the best anywhere, but it is a crushing of self-praise to pay your great money and bank on unnecessary aggregation, just for the sake of selling your own color perform. Tuskegee Defeats Moorehouse College Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Nov. 2— With the Alumni Bowl filled with graduate students and ardent supp- porters, anxious to see the Tuskegee Tigers in action and bid them fare- well and success on their invasion of the lair in the Honolulu Leone, the Tuskegee eleven defeated the More- house Tigers 29-4, late Saturday. O'Brien Lones Seattle, Nov. 4—Terry O'Brien of Honolulu has got the equal decision on Wilhelm Carter here last night. A year ago Young Sam Langford was the talk of the town. He had rounded out from the old Madison Square Garden Club and the Assembly and climbed into the front ranks of the local boys. Then he slumped He seemed to go back, and with a few losses seemed to be almost forgotten. But he has made good now. At Vernon in the semi-windup to the Mushy Callahan-Tiplitz fight he beat Niek Antonio decisively never giving him a chance to get that dangerous right going. So Young Langford is back again in the good graces of the public and with good care of himself ought to step right along from now on. Contrary to this the main bout was a disappointment and many were the kicks registered around town at the easy way in which Callahan disposed of another set-up, in two rounds of a one-sided punching exhibition.

Ask for and Be sure you get The Quality Loaf HOLSUM 'Made Clean 'Sold Clean' 'Delivered Clean' AUTOMOTIVE SECTION --- CAN RUBBER BE SUBSTITUTED? Not Possible In U. S. A. "There is still some talk about the possibility of rubber culture within the borders of the United States and some false hopes may be raised thereby," says W. O'Neill. "As we stated two years ago, it is a climatic and botanical fact that para rubber trees, yielding the highest grade rubber known—the kind grown on the plantations of the Middle East—do not thrive anywhere in the world except within a belt extending ten degrees north and ten degrees south of the equator. "No Para rubber, therefore, can ever be raised in the United States except in greenhouses, if this remains a truth. Para rubber, so necessary in the manufacture of tires, it seems, must come from tropical countries. Only to the extent that our flag may wave over countries outside our boundaries, can our Para rubber ever be an American product. "Some relief from the Malay crude rubber monopoly may come indirectly to the tire manufacturer from actual American sources, however. As stated, when the rubber flurry began, a shrub called guayule, yielding rubber of a low grade, is a native of the plains of North Mexico, South and West Texas and Arizona. Guayule rubber is not suitable for use in good tires, which require the best Para or hevea. However, guayule (pronounced wa-yoo-la) can readily be used, with excellent results in the manufacture of mechanical rubber goods, which do not have to bend and bear the strains common to tires. Guayule is well adapted to the manufacture of boots and shoes. "That it is already a well-known and much-used rubber is shown by the fact that as early as 1909 over 40,000 Federal Curb Sought, as They Occur in Most States—"Usual Vime" Not the Unusual Cause of Mob Violence—The Figures (From The New York Times, Sunday, Oct. 17, 1926) The Negroes, one a woman, were taken from jail at Alken, S. C., on Oct. 8th and Lynched. The same night a Negro was taken from jail at Dover, Tenn., and Lynched. Since the last of January there have been twenty-four lynchings—six more within the first ten months of 1926 than occurred in the full twelve months of 1925. In the last thirty-eight years, according to data gathered by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, there have been 3,583 lynchings in the United States, an average of nearly 100 a year. The percentage of those who were charged, truly or not, with "the usual crime," is less than 20 per cent. Since 1889 a total of ninety women have been lynched. Lynchings occurred in all states of the Union except seven. By far the greater number of victims of the black race. From the statistics it appears that of the persons lynched between 1889 and 1918, 2,522 were Negroes and 702 were white—the percentage being 78.2 to 21.8. The largest number of lynchings, 2,834, were committed in the South. In the North there were 219, the West 156 and in Alaska and unknown localities 45. Law's Delay Not Involved It is true that in the period 1921—4 there has been a sharp decline in the number of such crimes. In 1991, 64 persons were lynched; in 1922, 61; 1925, 28; 1924, 16; 1925, 18. But, as pointed out, the ten months of 1926 record a larger number of lynchings than the entire year of 1925. One of the causes assigned for lynching is that the people were impatient of the law's delays. But the recent mob lawlessness at Aiken, S. C., and at Dover, Tenn., does not substantiate this assertion. For in both cases the law with due diligence had been put into operation. The mob in defiance of the courts murdered the prisoners. In the South Carolina case the court had dismissed the case against one of the three defendants. to identify them as officers. The two women, seeing the four white men approaching, became excited and one of them screamed. The officers made a break for the house into which the two women had run, and in which were a number of children ranging in age from a few months to twelve years. The Lowmans had been living at Alken county a little over a year, had never been in any trouble, and knew none of the officers by sight. They were frightened because two weeks before three masked white men had gone to the same house on a Sunday night, taken Deman Lowman out and whipped him "When the men working in the field heard the woman scream, they rushed to the house and in the altercation which followed, the mother, Mrs. Annie Lowman, was killed as well as the Sheriff. The three Negroes were arrested, tried, convicted of murder; the two men were sentenced to death and the woman to life imprisonment. On appeal, the evidence was found to be so faulty that the Judge, on motion made by council for the defence, dismissed the case against Denman Lowman. It seemed likely that a verdict of not guilty would be rendered for the other two defendants. This was when the mob stepped in and lynched all three." In this connection it is worth recalling that South Carolina has an anti-lynching law and a favorable record for lynching. But the conclusion to which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has come, after years of appeal to state autohrities, is that the only effective machinery for stamping out lynching in the United States must be provided by an adequate Federal anti-lynching law. Such a bill is now pending before the United States States Senate. The measure is intended to assist the states in affording to all persons within their jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. The bill rests upon the clause of Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment, which reads "Nor shall any State * * * deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." It provides for a fine of $10,000 upon a County in which a lynching takes place, recoverable by the family or dependents of the victim; it also provides for the prosecution in Federal courts of lynchers and delinquent and negligent officers of the law. It was originally introduced in 1920, re-introduced on April 11, 1921, in the House of Representatives by Congressman L. C. Dyer, and passed by the House of Representatives on Jan. 26, 1922, by a vote of 230 to 119. On Jan 27 the bill was referred to the Senate Judicary Committee. Anti-Lynching Bill Re-introduced on May 6, 1922, a memorial urging the prompt enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching measure, signed by 24 State Governors, 39 Mayors of Cities, 47 Jurists and distinguished lawyers, 8 Archbishops, 85 Bishops and churchmen, including 29 college presidents and professors, 30 editors and 87 other citizens, was presented to the Senate by Senator Lodge. The American Bar Association, at its annual meeting held in San Francisco, unanimously adopted the following resolution: "We find that further legislation should be enacted by the Congress to punish and prevent Lynching and mob violence." On Sept. 21 the bill was brought upon the floor of the Senate by Senator Shortridge, but met a decisive check when a group of Southern Senators announced that they would filibuster. In the preliminary wrangle that ensued the opportunity to bring it to a vote for consideration was lost. Thus Congress adjourned without any decisive action being taken. It has been re-introduced and is now pending before the Senate Judiciary Committee. The main objection to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was that it infringed on State rights. It is contented by those who object to such legislation that the Federal Government has no more warrant to step in to punish lynching in the States than it has to prevent or punish any other form of murder or any other crime, nation, for example. But James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, argued at a recent Senate hearing that lynching is not simply murder, that it is murder plus something else. The mob apprehends the victim, tries and condemns, and then executes him. Motover, as contended, even if we define lynching as murder we are still confronted with the fact that murder at the hands of a mob presents a question which the States have not been able to cope with. And thus is why the National Association for the Advancement for Colored People is asking for the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. ment," declared the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, "that the States themselves either can or will not stamp out lynchings. When the Anti-Lynching Bill was pending in the Congress, lynching sharply declined, apparently because there was fear of Federal intervention. This evil which disgraces America before the civilized world apparently will never be ended until an aroused public sentiment definitely serves notice upon Congress that effective steps must be taken to stamp out this crime." The main attempt to justify lynching has been based upon the content that only by the summary method of mob murder could colored men be deterred from attacking white women. But the figures of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people show that among the crimes thus punished, murder leads the list, and that the alleged or real causes include the most trivial offenses. They point out that the strongest rebuttal to the statement that "the usual crime" that provokes lynching is that colored women have been lynched. From the figures it is apparent that other incidents than the so-called "usual crime" form a large majority of the causes back of the lynching of Negroes.

Henry Louis Mencken, Titanic Book Master! Real object for November journey, not search for rest, nor glories from Whites, but to gather information, mostly inspiration, from Blacks to write the crowning book of his life—the world emancipation of the Negro. Mencken is the greatest living writer of America and also the deepest literary giant America ever had and a much superior literary man than any President this country sent to the White House. His forth-coming book on the Negro rock the world, change its man, and in five years, perhaps only months after its appearance, bring complete deliverance and justice to the Black man. Reception Committee of 1000 and more Negroes is forming to heed the deep wish of Henry Louis Mencken: "Needless to say I'd be delighted to meet the intellectual Negroes of Los Angeles!" The greatest living literary genius of the Caucasian race in America the only literary, book-mapping mastermind of letters, books, poetry and unceasing polemics and subtle and most original criticisms of mastermind and masterwriters of mastermind of this age, Henry Louis Mencken of Baltimore, will be a visitor and thousand-fold guest in innumerable places and intellectual haunts in Los Angeles early in November, 1926. Who he is and what he does and his noblest work that he is to do yet, Negroes shall know and are called upon to prepare and receive him as beffes him and this finest opportunity to see the most distinguished White man since Lloyd Garrison was stoned and killed in the streets of liberty-loving Boston! WHAT MENCKEN IS! Henry Louis Mencken is a more distinguished sage than ever sat in the White House as the President of this nation. As the erudite and unparalleled Editor of the "American Mercury," he displays far more discerning abilities than any other president than all of the most scholarly Presidents we have ever had, than George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Howard Taft and the calamitous and fortunate Woodrow Wilson—a fair man and true lady will class Mr. Henry Louis Mencken as the most influential giant than any of the mentioned Presidents of the United States. But the Mencken greatness is not only found in the almost uncanny and superlative stunning inborn diplomacy and deepest reasoning brilliancy in his articles and his books, but fully as decisive and rare in his starling honesty and genius. And he is trained in his splendid crusades for mankind's rights and the same square justice for the downtrodden ones. Mencken was never bought by any corporation, nor any millionaire of our land; he always stood with the masses and never forsook the tortured Negro, for the White man's Ku Klux gold never had any charm for this admirable and most celebrated Titan of America's best pephm. At every movement directed against the masses and never forsook the fought bravely and defiantly for the Black brother's rights, and from this honorable literary pathway all the combined hellhounds of America's Lily-White discrimination leagues and clubs could not disdibe or silence the doughy and peerless Henry Louis Mencken. Born in Southern Baltimore, soon, even as a very young man, Mr. Mencken discovered, and hurled his powerful shattles of earnest logic and Heirich tilted his knife at the menmim and the White man's imaginary superiority complex. Always in the midst of literary combs and fierce controversial duels, Henry Louis Mencken has never been defeated or out-reasoned or out-written in any of his many thousands of pen battles. As the author of these books—“In Defense of Women,” “Democracy,” “Predjudice,” “Burlesques” and numerous other works, poems and plays, Mr. Manken shows much rigor in his writing, when George Bernard Shaw or H. G. Wells of England, and as a humorous writer he ranks far higher than the much lamented late Mark Twain. Of him it can be truly said that he is the most original writer America has ever produced and that as a classical stylist, whose language bites, he has been a modern philosophical founder of a new and higher school of American literature. WHAT HENRY LOUIS MENCK KEN DOES KEN DUES Henry Louis Mencken toils and speaks for the soul of a truer, a fanatic of man. America that wish and hope for, but have superficially carried out yet. As the highest enemy of the Ku Klux Klan, the Volunteer fanatics and the owlish Fundamentalists, no man in America has a greater home following and a stronger international all-world standing than Henry Louis Mencken. The most celebrated authors, best equipped lawyers, most scholarly thinkers are daily learning to receive his life in his like a marble, if they seek favors that are not strictly of the true ideal-struc and turns against them, fearless as a lion if they seek to damage the public weal. Mencken has no literary teachers, nor real imitators, as he himself is in a strictly scientific state. by himself; in 500 years Amer- cans cannot produce and has never pro- duced another. Monarch WHAT LILY LENCKEN DO IN LOS ANGELES! Many are wondering what Henry Louis Mencken may want to seek in Los Angeles— Is he coming here for a long, rest after his ceaseless poundings, his inexhaustible broadsides against the reactionary Bourbons, Capitalistic hypocrites, and the life-underminingoes of the Mencken-championed Negroes? Is the beauty of our scenery, are the richly drawn and poorly ovoid riches the dazzling magnets that are bringing Henry Louis Mencken to our shore? Is he aiming to establish a coast edition of his famous magazine —The American Mercury? Is it because of the stern truth that Mencken feels that as an undefeated literary Nestor at the age of 45 years he needs California adulation now after he has criticized California more than ever and in any place? — What is the greatest object of the Mencken visit to Los Angeles? Here is the plain fact: This greatest American writer aims to write his grandest and most immortal book on "The truth and the future of the Negro." He is gathering most carefully with an all-seeing eye and unstained soul all the available material possible to write a book upon the Negro, as has never been written before, neither by White, Black or any other author, and this greatest master work of Hemp, Louis Mencken upon persecuted, persecuted and crucified Negro will rock the world and change the atlts and the governments of all humanity a few years after it leaves the press. "Needless to say I'd be delighted to meet the intellectual Negroes of Los Angeles!" writes Henry Louis Mencken in his latest message to this writer and since he knows that here alone, at fairly measured leisure, is about the most promising opportunity to meet the most notable Negro men and Negro women of any and all sections of the world at large, the readers of this paper and also the New Age-Dispatch and the Pacific defender are asked to organize a powerful Committee of no less than 200 intellectual and powerful men and women of the race, later to be enlarged into a 4 figure column, to receive and welcome our modern and glorious Lloyd Garrison-like defender of the race—Henry Louis Mencken, so that from this intellectual and social intercourse with all the local leaders of the race, he may not merely gain lots of material, but most abundant inspiration to write his already begun monumental work, the Negro, a historic transformation master product with as many readers as the Bible and more portentous results from its logic than the Magna Charta of England sustained. As far as the writer knows Mencken and his matchless genius and resources, it can be promised to the readers of the Eagle that his forthcoming book upon the crushed Negro race will purify and stabilize America, rock and split up England, discolorize and straighten out France muzzle Mussolini by unmuzzling Hitler's best dictator's colonial nightmares, Drive spain out of Africa and force Belgium into European space merely and away from the Congo to run the government of her own population alone. Henry Louis Menken's book for the Negro's freedom will do for the world's Ethiopians and much more what Harriet Beecher-Stowe's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" did for the chattel slaves of America. Send all names and addresses for a befitting Reception Committee for his visit to Los Angeles to the Eagle Office, 847 Central Avenue, or to Mr. E. C. Jennings, 1144 E. Adams St. and any other addresses where the clans of the race gather. New York, October 18.—Invoking the aid of the Railway Meditation Board, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters today began an intensive campaign to force recognition from the Pullman company, which has ignored the repeated requests of the Brotherhood for a wage conference. The company has also requested the Way Meditation Board, A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood, today requested the services of the Board in securing a conference on wages and hours with the Pullman Company, declaring that more than 5000 porters, or the 51 per cent required by law, belong to the organization. Although railway legislation makes it the duty of employers to meet their employees in a uniform when requested to do so, the Pullman company has refused even to acknowledge the lettres of the Brotherhood requesting a conference, according to Brotherhood offiicals. The Railway Meditation Board, to which the Brotherhood has applied for aid, was created by the Watson-Parker bank of last session of congress and received the support, not only of the Transportation Brotherhood, but of the Railway Executives Council, of which the Pullman company is a member. The bill provides that the two parties to a railway labor dispute shall meet each other before the Board either applies for a forcible strike or agrees, adjustment mediation, and arbitration boards may be set up to settle the dispute. One of the principle demands of the union is its recognition by the Pullman company as the authorized representative of the union, supplying the Employee Representation Plan to the company. A A BREAKFAST DANCE WILL BE GIVEN NOVEMBER 11, 1926 BY THE FORGET-ME-NOT CLUB OF ELECTA CHAPTER NO. 3, O.E.S. GOOD MUSIC YOU KNOW THE REST At Eagle Hall, 822 Central Avenue FROM 9:00 A.M. TO 1:00 P.M. conference before the Board will compel that recognition. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Carriers was organized ago and has united with the Pullman and their officers of the Pullman cars in its name. Its membership is nation wide, including porters from every Railway in the United States. The objects of the organization were outlined in a letter written to F. E. Carry, President of the Pullman company, on September 20, by Philip A. Randolph organizer, and made public by him today. They are, according to the letter, the active, intelligent, intelligence, and responsibility to the end of creating helpful and constructive cooperation for the building up and maintenance of a high standard of service as well as merit the approval of yourself as the chief executive of our principal employers in the industry, the great public and those officials charged with the regulation of the transportation industry in State and Neighbour, as well as amicably, efficiently, and satisfactorily to adjust grievances that may arise from time to time between the Pullman company and the members of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters." Roy Lancaster, secretary-treasurer of the union, which has its headquarters at 2311 Seventh Avenue, declared that the Pullman company has agreed to spend hundreds of the men already, although it does not recognize the union. "Although the Pullman company refuses to acknowledge our existence, the union has already forced important concessions in the hope, no doubt, of averting strong organization, he said. The union became active and its organizers had been discharged from company service because of their union activities, the company granted a wage increase of 8 per cent, an increase which the Employee Representation Plan had been trying to secure without success. The union's new threshold. This increase is directly traceable to the demands of the Brotherhood. Adjustments of pay for "doubling out" were also made. "Only this week the company has granted another demand of the Brotherhood. One of the grievances of the porters has been the universal use of the name "George," which has been adopted and principally fostered, by the Pullman company. The porter believes himself entitled to the individuality of his own name, just as the porters have known to his employer as John Smith rather than by some general 'handle. The Pullman company has taken cognizance of this feeling on the part of the men, first expressed through the Brotherhood. It has announced that it will post the full name of every porter in his car. In a magnificent gesture, as if it had evolved an original idea, it declares "The company thinks that the public can be educated to calling George by his right name." Another fact, fact, is perfectly telling to be called by his title, 'Porter' when the travelling public speaks to him. It is the us of the universal 'George' by company officials who know his name that is anathema to the porter. The grievances which the onion will seek a remedy for were outlined by Lancaster. The principle use is the over present disposal of water. The water which makes a profit of 10 million dollars last year according to its own figures now pays its porters only $72.50 a month forcing them to disband upon the unpatent and improbable system of tripping," he said. "Even the rich runs seldom yield sufficient money in trials to make up a decent living wage for a man with family. The excessively long hours of work without sleep, and the vicious system of "doubling out" which may compete porter outgoing a rest period calls for adjustment. Another injustice that stills righting is the "free work" which porters must contribute to the company. Under the present system, the porters are paid only for time spent when the train is in motion, although they must spend many additional hours preparing cars for their runs and in the termini." ABOUT EMPLOYEES' REPRESENTATION PLAN NEW YORK. Oct. 28.—The Pullman car porters are "justified legally, as well as morally," in refusing to help create a machinery of self-degradation by voting in the Employee Representation Plan elections of the Pullman Company, which begins today, in the opinion of Donald R. Richberg, prominent labor attorney of Chicago, and counsel for the Brothhood of Sleeping Car Porters. The message was meant the porters in response to request for lavgive from the men as to whether they could be compelled to vote in the elections of the company union in spite of the fact that the Brothhood of Sleeping Car Porters has presented their case against the company to the Railway Mediation Board. The company's policy of forcing porters to vote in the Pullman Porters Beneat Assignment to allow them to go out on runs and holding up their pay until they had registered a vote, has led them to expect to meet a similar situation in the Company plan elections. Richberg's full message is as follows: "Under the law it is the right and duty of railway employees, including those employed by the Pullman company, to organize and select representatives without interference, influence, or coercion exercised by the employee, or to ensure that the plan does not comply with the law, but clearly violates the law. The employees are justified legally as well as morally in refusing to help create a machinery of self degradation." The Employee Representation Plan elections are being held ten days earlier than provided by the by-laws of the Plan, although the Plan itself provides that elections shall occur the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, the Company arbitrarily ordered the elections for October 23. The order was sent out very day has the Brotherhood of the Company been informed of the presentation of its case to the Railway Mediation Board.
