The Broad Ax

Almost Thirty Thousand Members of "The Knights of The White Light", or The Ku Klux Klan, Assembled at Ninety-Fifth Street and Seventy-First Avenue Last Saturday Night, and It Is Said That Before They Dispersed That Plans Were Laid to Wade Into the Jewish and Roman Catholic Candidates at the Forth- Coming Election in Cook County. MORE THAN FIVE HUNDRED KNIGHTS OF THE KU KLUX KLAN MARCHED INTO THE IMMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH LAST SUNDAY EVENING AND LAID MORE THAN TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARS DOWN ON THE TABLE. ITS PASTOR, THE REV. JOHNSTON MYERS, HAS BEEN NOTED FOR SOME YEARS AS BEING UNFRIENDLY TO COLORED PEOPLE. members of the Klan boldly marched into the Imanuel Baptist church, Twenty-third and South Michigan avenue with their faces hidden by masks wearing the red cross on the breasts, and the K. K. K., they marched by the altar in single file and deposited more than $1,200 on it, the daily newspapers had evidently been informed in advance as to what would be pulled off at that time for they were there just in time to snap some pictures of the members of the Klan just as they were emerging from the church. It will be recalled that Rev. Johnston Myers, the present mossback pastor of Imanuel Baptist church, came to this city to reside from either Cincinnati, Ohio, or from some part of Kentucky in 1893, that shortly after he assumed the pastorate of that church he let the Baptist world know that he did not want any colored Baptists to worship in that church, and it is claimed that he absolutely refused to baptize a small innocent baby simply because it was black in the face, it is further claimed that this holy man of God intimated from his race prejudice pulpit that he firmly believed in mob and lynch law for colored men who were charged with attempting to rape white women, that the colored people should at all times be segregated in every possible way and it will be further recalled that shortly after the race riots in this city in 1919, that according to the daily press that Rev. Johnston Myers was dead anxious to become one of Governor Lowden's race commissioners, presumably so that he would be in a far better position to strike at the manhood rights of the colored people and the chances are ten to one that Rev. Myers is some kind of an honored member of the "Knights of the Kn Khlz Klan." Notwithstanding all of the foregoing the vast majority of the colored Baptist preachers in this neck of the woods worship Rev. Johnson Myers as their white Baptist god. an important position in the office of the Register of the Treasury in Washington. Miss Tipton is a graduate of the Kansas State Normal School at Eauclair.

GLACKIN Member of the State Senate from the Seventeenth Senatorial District of Illinois, Who Always Favors the Enactment of Legislation for the Benefit of All the People. (By Dr. M. A. Majors) Is there any great benefit to come out of being regarded as funny? Can we afford to bear the brunt of being called the American bootlegger? Are we forever to be the butt of jokes? Will the story writer ever be convinced that educated Negroes do not talk as people talked a hundred years ago? Are we really afraid of ghosts? Are we as foolish as the average story writer would picture us? Will the American people ever take us seriously? Here is vast material out of which the energetic mind of scholars like Fickens, DuBois Colonel Simmons, J. E. Bruce and the rest of them may write some very rich literature. Here is some very profound philosophy. Here is the great flood tide of literary assimilation in which the white race finds security and hope. For a century the luckless head of the American Negro has had to lay on the chopping block of public sentiment. He is not only the American Jonah, he is considered the object of emphasized scorn, of laughter and humiliation. At the breakfast table, around the banquet table, in the editorial sanctum, in the halls of legislation he is held up as the rich source of merriment and in spite of his awful growth in the face of hindrance and obstruction, all of which he has made herculean efforts to overcome his simplest yet noblest acts are made fun of by the civilization which seems today to be without a soul. His abiding faith in God is laughed down. His taking college honors from the best universities are not properly interpreted, nor regarded seriously. His organizations for racial self-help and security fail to im- [Image of a man with a mustache and a serious expression, wearing a dark suit and a white shirt. The background is a plain, dark surface with a few scattered specks.] press the sober mind of the nation, and it remained for one American President to tell a delegation of our ablest men that they were impudent and upstartish. Unfortunately, a former condition has much to be blamed for our sad lot at the present time. We do not bemoan the color of our skin, although the races seem to make fun of it, yet the variety of shades which run from jet black to the very transparency of the white's tints of human complexions, prove that some other kind of human monster is industriously loving the devilish black out of our hide. No other race has suffered at the hands of an unsympathetic populace as we have, nor had to fight as we have had to fight against oppression for even the chance to hold up proud heads. A deal of security may be felt by others while making fun of us and at our expense, yet that does not altogether stultify our effort, nor forever condemn us to ignominy or hopelessness. Intelligence among us has mounted high and we have individuals among us that rank with the proudest intellects of the world. Anyhow we are much of the decent order because we have subscribed to all of those fine elements that go to make a prosperous and a happy people. "The Cardinal Gibbona Institute" is the name which has been adopted by the Board of Trustees recently appointed by Archebishop Curley, of Baltimore, for a national school for colored youth to be located in Southern Maryland. An initial expenditure of from $75,000 to $100,000 is anticipated in order to provide equipment for from 50 to 100 students. Right is ever to be uppermost while wrong is ever to be condemned. Sentiment must be intrenched behind the preachments of justice, and regulated by the forces of a matured mind, charitable in its considerations. Shakespeare stands alone in his platitudes woven in the very fabrics of human attributes, and he reaches the highest intellectual limits of beauty and truth in his great dramas. We cannot improve upon the rich and marvelous philosophy of his giant intellect. He has sounded all of the depths of thought and left the world a course of study from which it may learn the meaning of life for yet a thousand years. People are so different, and this truth Shakespeare dilineated upon to the delight of mankind. Every marauding force in human life felt the impress of his facile pen. Every noble impulse found expression through his wonderful intelligence. All of the delicate love actuations that puzzled the minds of Romeo and Juliet for centuries have been interpreted and their terrible stories of love and intrigue have found CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, AUGUST 26, 1922 CHARLES E. STUMP, THE REGULAR TRAVELING CORRESPONDENT FOR THE BROAD AX, ATTENDED THE MEETING OF THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE AT NORFOLK, VA., WHERE HE HAD THE ROYAL TIME OF HIS LIFE. Hampton Institute, Va.—This old world is not standing still, and if you will watch me for a few days you will be inclined to say "Old Man Stump is not standing still, but is the most movingest man in this country." I have been telling and telling you about the meeting of the National Negro Business League, and I told you that I was going to be there and it is now in history, and it is up to me to tell you just as much as I want to tell you about it and you can't make me tell you any more, and you just put that in your pipe and smoke it. In my last letter I told you about Mra. Carrie A. Tuggle and the great work she is doing, and how I had a big time although sick in Mobile, Alabama. She is indeed one more great woman and the world knows it. Well I got through with that meeting and made my way to another part of this busy world of ours. I spent a few hours in Montgomery, and then a night in Atlanta, and then a night in Washington, D. C., and a night in Richmond, Va., so on Tuesday morning I reached Norfolk, or at least I left Richmond, and got to Norfolk in the afternoon. When I got off of that Chesapeake & Ohio boat in Norfolk, I found Dr. Robert J. Brown, the dentist, with a smile on his face that would do credit to the "Gold Dust Twins," and he shook my lily black hand and looked into my pretty blue eyes and informed me that he was there to tote me to his home where I was to be the guest of himself and wife during my stay in the city. Dr. Brown has some king of an automobile car carriage, and soon had me seated in it headed for his home. It was a few m'nutes past 3 o'clock that afternoon that I got to town when all this happened, and I met his wife, who is one of the finest women I have had the pleasure of meeting in a long time. She shook my myl black hand just like her husband and told me that I was welcome to her home and to all that there was in it. I was ready to ride off in the carriage again, but she told us to wait and dinner would soon be served. Believe me when it came to the dinner end of it. I sent chicken and chicken into my eternity, and there were rolls which would melt in your mouth. Mrs. Brown is from Clark university, Atlanta, Ga.; in fact, she was born down in the neck of the woods, and you may put it down that I told you that she is a well trained woman, and she knows the cooking business from A to Z and can even put on the soforth if you want it. She is courteous, congenial and seems to enjoy entertaining the friends of her husband. After dinner we went out to see the town, I went to Mt. Vernon hotel where Perry W. Howard and others were stopping. It was in fine shape, and I enjoyed being with L. W. Bright and others. In company with Banker Williams, of the Wage Earners Bank, and he is president, Editor Sol Johnson, of the Savannah Tribune, and L. W. Bright, we went down to Little Bay, the place owned by Bright, and there took in some sea breeze, and returned to Norfolk about 10 o'clock and then to the headquarters of the local management. I was not there long before Prof. N. W. Collier came in and I got in touch with Dr. Brown, who came to carry me home and he stepped to the "hello box" and it was then arranged that Prof. N. W. Collier should be the guest also, and we were to be bed fellows. I enjoyed this so very much. Going in at night, Mrs. Brown had some fine chicken salad, but I do not eat at night, hence had to say good night to all that fine salad which Prof. Collier sent to his eternity. I was ready for the next morning. Dr. Brown is one of the leading tooth dentist doctors in this country, and he is doing business, believe me, honey, and is going to take his vacation by going to the National Baptist convention in Los Angeles. He is a graduate from Normal, Alabama, under: Prof. W. H. Councill, and I feel that you will know what this means. Now comes the meeting of the National Negro Business League. When it was time for it to open, I was there, but before going, I went to the home of Dr. R. H. Bowling, pastor of the First Baptist church, where Dr. George Cleveland Hali, of Chicago, was stopping, and his eminent cutter, and he cut my head and got a whole lot of that death stuff out of it, which was giving me trouble. I think the devil must have put it in there, but Dr. Hall declares that it matters not where I am he is going to protect me against them bugs that would destroy my life and he did chase them right out. Dr. Hall was a life long friend to Dr. Booker T. Washington and he is now a friend to me. Robert R. Moton, and was right by his side at the opening of the League, and rendered some good service. It was one of the best sessions—and I am safe in saying the best session ever held in the history of the organization. One was reminded of the days of Booker T. Washington, and all of the old timers who were there so declared what I have told you. Dr. Hall, and then there was Hon. J. C. Napier, who was a direct personal friend to Dr. Washington during his life, and he is now a friend to Dr. Moton, and has declared that he will devote his time in helping to make the League what it should be and I believe that he is doing what he said that he would do. He was on hand to render any service he could and right by his side was his wife, Mrs. Napier, and of course you know that she is the daughter of the late John M. Langston, and a refined, cultured woman. She is devoted to any cause in which her husband is interested. Now then, came the time for the opening, and Dr. Robert R. Moton took his seat on the rostum, but it was not his open. The meeting was called to order by the chairman of the Negro Chamber of Commerce and they have one in the city. Then followed in order welcome addresses and the program of the morning. When Dr. Moton was presented the people stood up, and gave him one more ovation. They showed their love for him and later in a different way as I shall tell you before I get through with this writing business. I was so glad to meet so many of them people. They made a big meeting, and I am here to tell you. I will not take up your time to tell you about the wonderful addresses that were made, but I will tell you that Dr. Robert R. Moton was reelected president, and C. C. Spaulding was elected chairman of the executive committee and John L. Webb was elected treasurer, Chas H. Anderson, of Jacksonville, Fla., resigned. As they moved along there were but few changes in the official staff. You know that this organization don't believe in changes, but Mr. Anderson's business was so that he could not give the attention to the League, but he will still follow it and serve in any capacity they want him. N. W. Collier was put on the Executive Committee. W. L. Porter, editor of the E. Tennessee News, was on the program but he could not get there, and there were so many other things that took place. Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, and a long time friend of Dr. Booker T. Washington, presented Dr. Robert R. Moton with a fine Cadillac in the name of his friends. Berry O'Kelly and Dr. Plummer were the leading spirits in taking hold of it, and it was fitting that Fred Moore should make the presenting speech. Mrs. Moton responded. She accepted the fine gift and of course Dr. said a few words. The League is indeed a live thing now, and they have many new plans which will be developed and I shall let you know about them from time to time Albion L. Holsey was elected secretary of the League, successor Mr. Scott, and he is a good secretary and I am proud of him. He is going to push things to the front. We need just a few more like him. Mr. Hunt was there. I am going to tell you about some more of them in another letter. I want to give my personal thanks to W. A. Aery, the publicity man of Hampton Institute. He is a fine gentleman, and is rendering a good service for the cause. He is not at all selfish, but is ever ready to serve. I have learned to love him and appreciate the work he is doing for us and for my people. God give us more like him. I wish I could tell you a few more things about him. I wish that Peter Bowman, the chef, could take a few hiats from this man and he would be ready to serve. You see that there are people in this world who get into positions and you cannot reach them with a red apple, and this is the case of Mr. Bowman. I will just give him a passing notice this time, but will have more to say of him another time. He did not know me, and I will not blame him, but he should learn that guests of institutions are guests, and it pays to favor guests sometimes. I have the pleasure of coming in touch with President W. J. Hale of the Tennessee State School. He is an important factor in the National Negro Business League, and he was a busy man during the session here. I will have to bring this letter to a stop for this time, but I am not through. CHARLES E. STUMP 107 IPEV United States Senator from Illinois, Who Is Working Hard and Doing Everything in His Power to Secure the Passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill by the United States Senate ADVANCEMENT ASSOCIATION votes that he may be returned to URGES DEFEAT OF NEW Washington. I am writing you to urge that you do everything in your JERSEY CONGRESSMAN Pointing out that R. Wayne Parker, Congressman from the Ninth Congressional District of New Jersey was the only New Jersey Congressman who voted against the Dyer bill when it was passed by the House of Representatives by a vote of 230 to 119, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People have made public a letter sent to its Newark and Orange, N. J., branches urging colored voters to do everything in their power to defeat Mr. Parker, who is a candidate for re-election. In the letter the Advancement Association pointed out that the Dyer bill has given colored voters a clear-cut issue on which to determine who are the friends and who are the enemies of the Negro in the lower House of Congress and emphasized that unless the threats of colored voters, made when the Dyer bill was being debated in the House of Representatives, to defeat every Congressman who voted against the bill, if it lay within their power, that colored voters might as well keep their mouths shut in the future unless men like Mr. Parker were defeated. This action against Mr. Parker is in line with efforts being made by the Advancement Association against Congressman Patrick J. Kelley, of Michigan, and Caleb R. Layton, of Delaware, who were the only Congressmen from their respective states, like Mr. Parker, who voted against the Dyer bill. The Association's letter signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary, follows: "On January 26th when the House of Representatives voted on the Dyer Anti-Lynch bill every Congressman from New Jersey voted to pass the bill, save one—R. Wayne Parker, representing the Ninth New Jersey Congressional District. By that act, Mr. Parker voted with the mob and against the interests and wishes of every Negro voter of his district, as well as against the welfare of every Negro in America. "Today Mr. Parker is seeking vout 7 votes that he may be returned to Washington. I am writing you to urge that you do everything in your power to defeat him. You, as colored voters, must view this issue above and beyond narrow, partisan politics. We must never seek to maliciously influence the thought or action of men elected to public office, but in this fundamental question of the protection of American citizens from the mob, we must allow nothing to alter our determination to reward our friends and punish our enemies politically. The Dyer bill has us the clearest cut method ever had to determine friends and who our Parker has been weighing in theance and found wanting. We must make him remain at home for do not defeat those who defeated the Dyer bill, then we must as well keep our mouths shut in the instance on this matter. "Again, let me say that the issue is clear cut! Defeat Parker! Do everything in your power to get the colored vote out at the primaries on September 26th and the elections on November 7th! The day of registration in September 12th. Before you can vote in either the primary or the election, you must register. And get every colored citizen of the Ninth Congressional District to register. Any colored man who votes for Parker following his vote against the Anth Lynching bill is a traitor to his rant and must be so regarded." Eight colored churches and a how- pital at Kansas City, were recently visited by the Ku Klux Klan. They left letters containing ten dollars each for the churches and twenty-five dollars for the hospital. Some of ministers used the money for charity while the treasurer of the hospital re- turned the money to the Ku Klux Klan treasurer. Five prominent while men at Macon, Ga, have been indicted for lynching John (Cocky) Glover recently by the Bibb County Grand Jury, Glover was lynched in Monroe County, Georgia, after he had shot and killed Deputy Sheriff Walter C. Byrd, who was attempting to place Glover under arrest. The five men indicted are among the most prominent men in Macon. Herbert Block, one of them, is manager of the Hotel Demsey, the leading hotel in Macon. H. L. McSwain, another of the men indicted, is president of the Southern Co-Operative Fire Insurance Company. N. Unice is a merchant, and Guy Jones is a city fireman. The fifth man indicted was unarmed as he had not been located, living fled from town. Bond was set at amounts ranging from $1,000 to $3,000 each. Other indictments are expected to follow. The indictment charging rioting read in part: "Block: McSwain, Unise and the other party, did unlawfully and with force and arms together with persons unknown to the grand jury do a certain unlawful act of violence towit; Take from William Branan, a deputy sheriff, and from J. L. Mullally, a deputy sheriff, a certain prisoner lawfully in charge of these officers, John Glover alias 'Cocky' Glover, for the purpose of mobbing and lynching Glover, and did in a violent and tumultuous manner, after taking Glover in charge transport him across the line between Monroe and Bibb counties for the purpose of lynching and killing Glover." The N. A. A. C. P. is carefully following these indictments to see if trials and convictions follow, or if the indictments are not to be pressed as has been the custom in the few cases where lynchers have been indicted in Southern states. T. Arnold Hill, executive secretary of the Chicago Urban League has left Chicago for regions unknown on a motor trip. When last heard from he was in Detroit, Mich. ```markdown ``` + Chattanooga, Tenn.—The Ku Klux Klan, which has been responsible for the secret circulation of a spurious document purporting to be the genuine official oath of the Knights of Columbus got a set-back here last Tuesday when the Reverend Father F. T. Sullivan publicly announced in the local daily papers that "Five Thousand Dollars was on deposit in the First National bank of Chattanooga, Tenn., and would be donated to any person who would show that the 'alleged bloody oath of the Knights of Columbus' is not a cruel, cowardly and fake oath." It is said that klansmen are using the fake oath to plant the seeds of religious hatred in the minds of the more illiterate of the people in this vicinity and have even been able in some instances to really convince some of the better informed citizens that the oath is genuine. It is claimed that Catholics are not as easily terrorized as Negroes and the nefarious Ku Klux organization is trying to engender hatred against the Catholics through the secret circulation of this lake oath. CLAIMS KLAN ORDERED AD CONTRACT KILLED St. Louis, Mo.-According to reports, Robert I. Young, of St. Joseph, Mo., candidate for nomination for United States Senator on the Democratic ticket, says: "I received a notice from the Ku Klux Klan to remove a campaign advertisement which I had contracted for insertion in the Jewish Record, a local Hebrew language newspaper. The reason given in the Klan letter was 'because the Jew is after the almighty dollar and to hell with the country.'" It is said that officials of the paper announced that suit will be filed against Young to collect the sum of money due the paper under the contract. Dr. and Mrs. W. W. Bradley, 3849 S. State street, will leave this coming Monday on a two weeks' vacation trip for Battle Creek, Mich., Idlewild, Mich., and other points in Cass county, where there are many friends of Dr. Bradley, who own some splendid highly cultivated farms.
