Chicago Defender EXTRA WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY THOMPSON RE-ELECTED DR. BUNDY GUILTY; GETS LIFE SENTENCE Defender Foreign Representative Tells of Paris on Page 20 Second Ward Vote Decided the Political Battle; Sweitzer Is Smothered, Hoyne Forgotten MAYOR, VINDICATED, ISSUES STATEMENT FOR DEFENDER SELLER OF WAR PICTURES [Club Women to Meet With the entire Chicago press, the Daily News, Tribune, Herald-Examiner, Journal and the Post arrayed in the bitter light against the re-election of Mayor William Hale Thompson, with the historical but warped, Municipal Voters' League and other agencies who had not the best interest of Chicago at heart, fighting tooth and nail to throw him in the discard, "Big Bill" with his powerful ally, The Chicago Defender—the only newspaper supporting him—easily came over the wire, defeating his adversaries by a plurality of 17,600 votes. The Second gave him 11,102 of this number, and undoubtedly a large percentage of the votes came from our people featured in the various wards throughout the city. Defender Influence Felt It was a victory, not only for Mayor Thompson, but for the Chicago Defender as well. This statement is substantiated by bold type headlines in the Wednesday Journal, which said, "NEIGHBORS ELECT BIG BILL," while all of the other newspapers painfully admit that it was the vote of our group of people that put to court the conspiracy of the oppression. Modesty presents us from claiming that the World's Greatest Weekly wields more political influence than all the Chicago dailies combined, but results are what count. Woman Becomes Vulgar It was fortunate that certain Democratic leaders and "wishy-washy Republicans" aided and abetted by other agencies, sought to engender race prejudice in the campaign. This was especially noticeable on occasion when Randolph and Washington streets; a well-dressed lady of the Caucasian race standing in a limousine, speaking through a megaphone, shouted this significant statement in a public telephone call. This statement, coming from one of her class, who appeared to represent the better element of white people, was not only surprising but alarming, when taken into consideration a remark of the speaker's riot. Fortunately, her hearers seemed to have possessed more intelligence than the speaker and paid no attention I welcome this opportunity to express, through the columns of the Chicago Defender, my high appreciation of the loyalty of that element of our American citizens composing a great majority of the citizenship of the Second Ward. My enemies and political opponents have endeavored to arouse race prejudice against me on the ground that I have given undue recognition to the Colored people. I deny this. I have given fair representation to the Colored people of Chicago because as Republicans they have helped nominate and elect me, and, secondly, as American citizens they are entitled to their quota of representation in governmental affairs. They contributed their quota to the armed forces of the nation and performed valiant service for their country. From the records at hand it cannot be denied that they discharged the duties of American Cordale, Ga., April 4.-Bob Williamson, a traveling representative of a picture company, was driven out of this town by white people who objected to the selling of photographs which showed Sergis. Henry Johnson and his wife, the late Eleanor of the 15th New York town, killing several Germans in a mind-to-hand combat in No Man's Land. Williamson received a mysterious telephone call asking him to bring his picture to an art store, located in a white settlement, for inspection. Upon arriving his picture, were overturned and torn to shred. He was never seen in the blunt instruments, the muzzle of a pistol was poked down his mouth, and he was told to leave town immediately. Williamson obeyed. It is claimed that in some portions of Georgia, Florida and Mississippi the law strictly forbids the selling of picture materials, the cell of the gallant deeds of our soldiers. Richmond, Va., April 4—Worrying over being sent to jail for violating the prohibition law is said to have caused the death of br. J. J. Hartley, a physician, who was found dead in bed in his home here recently. He was accused of giving prescriptions for whiskey and alcohol, and the orders of the court showed that he gave 500 prescriptions for spirits ferment in one month. Burglars Caught Providence, Ky. April 4—Ciff Walker, John Wilson, Biddle Thompson, Mack and Altona Newcomb, a band of burglaries, were arrested in Evansville last week and returned to this city to face charges of robbing the store of Alexander Nisonger on the night of March 20th. 14. SATURDAY OMPS UNDY G Vote Decided the e; Sweitzer Is byne Forgotten to the un-American and un-Demo- ratic remarks. Traitors Are Walloped The Defender has observed with a scrutinizing eye the administration of Mayor Thompson, and regards his conduct as fair to those who have made, and are still making, him a political possibility. In this campaign, as in previous years, he has found some activities, fostered by useful elements of our people, who have been pushed from their stools of influence by their own misadventure, and because they have not been able to rule they have attempted to ruin. It so happens in this campaign that possess chieftaincy over the other was turned to their own lips. These people under the guise of "truce interest" have bartered away the rights of our people for the past twenty-five years, but their day has passed. They have been sage, and for the most part left their homes for the good of their homes. Anderson Victorious In the Second Ward, Alderman Louis B. Anderson received 14,150 votes, a plurality of 10,094, the largest vote ever given a candidate for alderman in any ward in the city. The success of both the Mayor and alderman means a butcher and graterer Chicago. It is hoped that the Mayor will be able to work unhampered this term from the many petty prejudices which had much to do with retarding his success during the past four years. George E. Holmes, candidate for Municipal Court Judge, who was endorsed by the Defender, elected by a large and safe plurality. George E. Brennan (white), a member of the Democratic executive committee and a sponsor for Mr. Swetzer, in an interview said that our people were responsible for the elections intended as a rationum of our action, we cheerfully accept it, and any other action we may take. Mayor William Hale Thompson, 3200 Sheridan road, Chicago. I congratulate you upon victory. If our people come up as bapers indicate, we are not all pleased. Two million of us will help make you President. DR. S. R. GBISON. soldiers with as great a degree of bravery and heroism as any other element in the American armies. The history of the Colored Race in America is a record of fealty and devotion to our country, and in this election they have again demonstrated that they may be relied upon to act intelligently. They have allied themselves with those states that stand for the highest development of our country and the greatest protection to its people. I have maintained and still insist that the man who so nobly upheld the majesty of our government on foreign battlefields ought not to be deprived of participation in the government which he would give his life to preserve. He has earned his trust anywhere that an American citizen may vote under the Stars and Stripes. I stand for the constitution of our country, the constitution of our state and the laws enacted under them. I believe in the Declaration of Independence, am for America and America itself, and all the time, without any distinction of race, creed or color. Grand Forks, N. D.

SCHAFFER CLASSER OF DEATH Women Horsewhip White Wonderer Woman Who Ended Career of George Bell Given Liberty Woman Who Ended Career of George Bell Given Liberty (By Century News Service) Milwaukee, Wis., April 4.—Justifiable homicide was the verdict rendered by Coroner Franklin after inquiries had been completed in connection with a giant, a member of the "Chin Chin Chow" theatrical company, who was shot to death in a rooming house he recently by his common law wife. The verdict was based upon recommendation of District Attorney Zabel. Miss Easly Testifios Miss Easily testified that her love affairs with Bell had been shattered several times because of the giant's desire to be "too familiar with other women." She declared that on the night of the night shooting Bell after night knocked Bell to kick her. The room was too small for Bell to handle himself, conveniently and in a scuffle to gain possession of a resolver which was in a trunk, she said, "he beat him to it." Miss Easily said she was sufficiently enought enough to take her to New York her home. She expressed little regret at having slain the giant.

The body was post-mortem examination made by Milwaukee physicians showed the giant's brain to be one ounce less than normal. The body shrank seven inches to death. The coffin was made to order. RETURNED SOLDIER FINDS WIFE WED TO ANOTHER Flushing, L. I, April 1.

Schaffer of the Third Episcopal district of the A.M.E. church at Lansing, Mich., on Thursday, March 17. Methodism has lost one of its ablest exponents, humanity one of its greatest champions, and his family has suffered an irreparable loss. Bishop Schaffer was born in Troy, Ohio, in 1847. He early evinced a desire for knowledge and a willingness to make sacrifices to obtain it. He received his education from the common schools in the city of the birth afterwards attending Berean college, later studying medicine in the Jefferson College of Medicine and Surgery at Philadelphia, Pa. In 150 he was ordained minister in the A. M. E. church and licensed to preach by the late Bishop Payne. His constant study and quest for knowledge created a new environment and brought him in touch with some of the greatest men of his day, and as evidence of his usefulness he was honored in 1900 by the general conference to a seat in the College of Bishops. During his 19 years' service as bishop he has been recognized as one of the oldest men of his connection and as one of the foremost thinkers of his church. He leaves to mourn his loss a widow and son, three brothers and three sisters. He was held at Quinn Chapel Church Tuesday morning, conducted by Bishop B. F. Lee, assisted by Bishop H. B. Parks, L. L. Coppin, W. D. Chapple, J. A. Johnson, C. S. Smith, John Hurst, L. N. Ross, W. H. Hurd and Rev. B. F. Watson.

Gullet (white), who was recently discharged from custody of the Hanford (Kings county) sheriff on the charge of killing Rox Walker in Lemoore last July.

Guilct Beaten Mrs. Walker, widow of the murdered man; Miss Belle Henderson and Mrs. Peat; Anderson, her friends, decided to murder and patiently awaited Guillet's arrest on one of the main streets of the town. When he appeared the women pouced upon him, tore his clothing from his body, scratched his face and chased him, and yelled for help, but his cries were unanswered by the women, who unmercifully pouced his bare back with horsehumps. His body was badly lacerated, interior of the pharmacy was a total wreck as the result of the affray. Crowds Sea Horsewhipping White Soldiers Accuse Sergt. Johnson of Slander St. Louis, Mo. April 4. White soldiers, returned from overseas, requested that a federal warrant be issued for the arrest of Sergt. Henry Johnson, war hero of the old 15th New York Infantry, because of the remarks he made while addressing a large crowd at the Coliseum in this city last Friday night. The warrant is also based on the technical charge of wearing the uniform after a prescribed time. Because of having said the white soldier in the face of enemy fire; that the marines refused to light in the same trunches with our men, and that the war was won by black soldiers, Johnson promised to retract the charges in a formal statement and deputy marshals deferred the arrest.

Prejudice Overrides Justice in Trial at Waterloo; Appeal to Be Asked SATURDAY BY NETTIE GEORGE SPEEDY Waterloo, III. April 4. After five hours' deliberation a jury in Circuit Judge Frank Gilham's court found Dr. Leroy N. Bundy of East St. Louis, Ill. guilty of mur- der and fixed his punishment at im- pire is on me in the petitionary for the rest of his life. There were few spectators in the court when the vordict was released in those few were sus- sied with surprise, for the prediction had been made that Dr. Bundy would be acqui- tured, as for their own words. A. "there was nothing on him." The sheriff allowed him time to prepare his personal effects and to say good by to his wife, who has stood by him so nobly during his trouble. Then he was taken to the jail at Waterloo to await the hearing for a new trial, which will be Monday, April 7. An Explanatory Note The defense was ready to introduce witnesses to testify that the rots were begun by white men; that witnesses had seen an automobile killed with white men going through the riot district firing from both sides of the car into the homes of our people; that the church bells were not heard to ring until after the shooting by the white men; that the riot was a Race that their homes were in danger; that the so-called first riot, which occurred May 28, 1917, when white men were heating our men, was the foundation of the race riot of July 1, 1917, but the efforts of the attorneys for the defense were in vain, for Jude Dr. A. Wilberforce Williams, health editor of this paper, has been con editor of this paper missioned by the National War Work Council, upon the advice of Dr. W.A. Evans, health editor of the Chicago Tribune and Dr. B. E. Kirkman, executive personal secretary of the central military department, to deliver, as a specialist, lectures to soldiers of our army posts overseas. Dr. Williams was a life chosen for this work, and the only one of our group raises the rah honor. 2 For over twenty years Dr. Williams has been foremost in all matters appertaining to the work of the people along the lines of education and right living. His reputation for the nation wide, and his personal sacrifices to give up his lucrative practice, demonstrates it to be a patriotic duty, and is willing to render service in every way possible to retain the confidence imposed in him by those who are gracious enough to select him to do this work, and to give to those in need the benefit of his household of knowledge. Dr. Williams is an effective speaker, and, above all, well skilled in the scientific lines which he is to present to the soldiers. GAMBLERS WITH LOADED DICE AWAIT YANKS Nogales, Ariz, April 4.

However, their pride being the only thing preventing them, as well as their misfire for Mrs. Downs, from promising to live for Mrs. Downs, the big fellows who are promoting vaudeville acts should get busy and put a decent vaudeville house in Harlem.

N rn al ny 00 it ed nd The Art of Advertising It costs money to advertise in newspapers and periodicals; but everything costs money, and the cost to publish a good newspaper is as high as any good thing.

These two interrogatives are the keynote to introducing secrets. Many successful promotions become successful through right publicity. There is no better source than a newspaper with a large circulation to advertise and enlarge business or to sell any legitimate community business or poster and street car advertisements carry ads for some of the most successful papers in the country; but the newspaper's circulation does them more good. So much circulation—so much business—sorts of readers; like the success of a great newspaper. For a paper to be great, it must have a great circulation as well as great policies. There are all kinds of newspapers, but the power of a great newspaper is so powerful as the amount of people who read it regularly. A business can be carried on without advertising, but there will be a limit to the owner's power, so much profit. The next time a truthful newspaper man asks you to advertise, make him show you the extent of his circulation. To its extent you can extend your business by giving you the power of advertisement, and by advertising a sufficient length of time. Harlem is filled with stool pigeons. The result of their work is that we have much crime and less police protection. There are two classes of stool pigeons—the kind that get money and police prestige for their dirty work. The other class is the kind that sage in "uplift" work. Frequently this latter class tell the police department that Harlem needs to be "cleaned up." The result of this is that as soon as these educated and law abiding citizens are housed in a department conceives the wrong idea that Harlem does need to be cleaned up. Then as soon as some respectable citizen is clubbed, the very same organization that telephones the police that they are too easy, find room to join and get involved in the harsh police discipline which we are now experiencing. Recently a stool pigeon walked into a saloon on Lenox avenue, near 137th street. Greeting a stranger and the pretense that he has the stool pigeon marked the stranger's coat with piece of chalk. Honor Medal Little eRward Standing on the corner at 46th street and Broadway last week was a soldier of our Race who had lately returned from France with the 369th Infantry Battalion. He was a Croix de Guerre and on his right sleeves were two gold stripes. He stopped a Defender reporter and asked where he could get work as an elevator operator, he stated that he had followed this order. He said that that he would like to get back at it now. He also stated that he had answered two or three advertisements for elevator operators and upon arrival he would have jobs for white only. Did our boys die on the battlefields of France for "Colored" only? They died for the United States and to help make the country a democracy, and the citizens of this country cared for the man who is best qualified, regardless of race or color. Conner's Employees Dance Catharne Employees Dance The employees at Carnegie Capped their trays and cared for an evening and journeyed down to Harlem Casino Monday, March 24, where the association held its second annual hall. The hall was not large enough to accommodate the many friends of the theater and the present seemed to be enjoying a pleasant evening.

E. MISTREATED Now that the lil' is removed, the discharged soldiers of the 15th infantry are relating experiences direc- tually to have happened in the dark before they were able to trees over night for minor offences, while shot and shell from the enemy rained about them. On another occasion the whole Third battalion were shot and killed on days and night with a heavy gun falling, with no shelter, no blankets, con- sequently no sleep. This was alleged to have been punishment for men suspected of stealing some foodstuffs. As result of this exposure several men died. James Reese Europe, who was supposed to have charge of the band, was put in charge of the Third machine gun company and ordered to the front. The band in the meantime was skirmishing around serenading the white commanders of the different regiments. These and other charges that seemed sounded have been made by many members of the band. Working under such difficulties, the men deserve great praise for their admirable conduct. Johnson-Robert Hut Interest in the Johnson-Robert hut in West 138th street, conducted by the Y. M. C. A., is becoming more among the Harlem young men and soldiers. John W.

Though the cost is small, no solider who cannot afford to pay is ever turned down when in need of lodging. The secretary would be able to give any of cast off clothes, since the men returning to civilian life are often without means to buy clothing. Dishwashers in Gun Fight The next time that Charles Harvey, 24, 232 W. 63d street, decides to wash dishes he will keep up with the speed of his comrade, who does the rinsing and wiping.

The bout opened with a first light, ending in a shooting affray.

SCROGGINS TRIAL ENDS In New York, as in many other sections of the country, it is a difficult matter to get a judge or a jury to convict a white man or set of men on the evidence produced by members of our Race. So it was not at all surprising to the Police Commissioner Joe should receive his bail, this famous trial so interesting to Harlemites. To the average hymn who listen to the many arguments, pro and con, and the fair minded lawyers who are not swayed by color, the case seemed a gross miscarriage of justice. The reason is that the white police force of New York to make it as hard as possible for our men, but they might as well reconcile themselves to the fact that they are on the force to stay, and many more will be soon sent to prison. Civic organizations are carried out. It was to be expected that Lieut. Whittle would paint his side of the picture as dark as possible. But as the story had not the ring of truth it carried little weight. The fact that no victim was rendered was virtually a victory for Patrol Delaney Scroggins. The Smarter Set, headed by S. T. Whitney and Homer Tutter, opened at the Lafayette theater Monday afternoon. A composition entitled "Stamping the Blues Away," was a riot. The show was largely commended and many new artists have substituted the old-timers.

DRAMA IN MOVIE The Stage by Tony Langston "Kick In" Big Hit at the Avenue; Fine Bill at the Grand PAGE EIGHT DRAM "Kick In" Big H Fine Bill a "Kick In," one of the best plays yet put on by the Lafayette Players at the Avenue Theater, is the present week's offering, and it is full of vital interest, excitement, and, in the midrama situations. The story tells of the reformation of Chick Hewes and the consequences of their not having cut entirely away from their former partners in crime. Two of these latter are suspected of the theft of a diamond necklace, and it is the opinion of the Tony Langston Tony Langston police that Chick knows something of the theft. He is arrested and put through the third degree; he clears himself, but is hounded by the officers. Chick at his home and it grills him by the latter and his wife. He is taken suddenly ill and dies on their hands and they are forced to figure on disposing of the body. The problem finally solved, but then they learn that necklace has been stolen from the dead by Chick in law; desperate and again hunted by the police, Chick's wife has a hard time keeping him on the straight and narrow path. He arranges for the return of the necklace, his reward to security for himself and all concerned; the dead necklace arrangement is not on the square, however, and arrests Chick. A real night ensues, and it seems as if Chick is about to come out of it second best when he is rescued by his who stabs the detective with a hydeo phone making him groggy enough for them to overpower him. This part of the play is a real sensation and has every one sitting tight in their seats. The finish of the play comes in a manner which sends you out of the popular house feeling glad that, despite the trouble, his principal, he, with the aid of his wife, remains true to his good resolutions. "Eaba" Townsend has one of his best parts in this, handling the character of Chick to perfection. This young man is an artist of fine quality and he has never yet failed to deliver the regardless of the diversified types which he has been capable of portray. As the police-hounded exconvict he has the sympathies of the audience from beginning to end and his philosophical arraignment of the "system" in the scene at headquarters is delivered in such a way that gets a big hand; it is the same then as when he has been Chick's faithful wife is all that can be asked for; she is always at home in parts of the sort, and her splendid work is too well known to need much mention. Suffice to say that it is typical "Mitchell" parties played in "Xen" Mitchell' way. A. B. Bude Comanacha or a comanacha good; he has the mannerisms of officers of the kind, and carries his work well. Whip Fogarty, the double-crossing detective, is well done by J. Francis Moore and he makes himself so heartily despised that when the line comes for him to "get his" his pleasure Julian Keith also has an officer part which he handles capably.

THE GRAND An extraordinarily strong bill played here the first half of the week, there being two of the most popular acts in vaudeville in the line-up—McCarver & Robinson and Dave & Lillian. Both acts have been seen here in the past and both were accorded a hearty welcome on Monday night by large audiences. There are few as clever performances. There are McCarver and Blondi Robinson, and what they do with the ordinary bill in manners. They have a routine of songs, dances and chatter that screams the folks out front and the offering has the finished touch that comes only with real study and long experience. "some more act." Dave & Lillian have just returned from a trip to the theater and their work received a world of favor. mention, have one of the best turns of its kind, a singing and dancing novelty full or the ginger that makes you sit up and take notice. The acrobatic dancing of Dove is a riot and his clever partner balances with him with her meat work. This pair has a great skill and will surely be heard from in fast company some day. The show opened with Three Birds, the swell act of its kind, and it also brought the Skating Bear, a trained grizzly of intelligence, and Monroe & Grant in a fast working novelty. The featured acts of the last half of the past week were Austin & Delaney and Mule Bradford and Jeunette. The former team is practically a new one, as the boys have only been teaming together for a time. They have a real act, however, better than any act seen at the Grand for a long time. Austin is a real comedian and in Delaney he has the best partner, of his long career in vaudeville, the latter having a fine voice and is an acrobatic and novelty dancer of the fastest kind. This act will never fail for booking. Mule Bradford and Mule Bradette give a singing, talking and dancing act, the ordinary; Mule uses a piano and a long been used are original. Jeunette, who works in male attire, is a clever young lady and has the art of putting a song over worked out to a frazzle. The act went splendidly all through the engagement. The Ginger Five, consisting of Geo. Cressy Green, Crissy Russell, Bobby Ellison and Billy Young, will be the featured attraction the last half of the week. THE MONOGRAM An excellent vaudelleville is holding forth here the present week. There are three teams and a single, and all of them are more than making good. The Musical Barringers, one of the best novelties that ever showed here, are a group of musicians of the finest sort, and they have a variety of instruments that brings the act right to life. In its class, Dodo Green and Cross hands, the act has plenty of comedy, nifty dances and fairly good singing, and they are proving very popular. Tucker & Gresham are also making a splendid impression on their initial engagement here as a team. Clean comedy and fine singing mark their efforts, and the turn goes over in the most approved style. George Davis, the comedian, uses song numbers, all of which she handles in a nimble way, and she completes a bill that for class stands way out. No change here until the final performance on Sunday night. WIN8 PRIZE Curtis Mosby, the sensational drummer with the Tennessee Ten, which act is a big riot all along the line, took part in a "Drummers' Contest" in other widders of competing with nine other widders of a large first prize, a $100 share drum. The act is playing the Majestic Theater at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, at present. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER EDITH STOREY CELEBRATED STAR COMING TO STATES THEATER IN "AS THE SUN WENT DOWN" Rattlesnake Gulch has no more picturesque character than "Colonel Billy," a girl. She has tried to live down her past since meeting Faro Bill, whom she loves sincerely. Bill and his partner, Gin Mill Jack, own the "Miners" Paradise. To the gulch comes Gerald Morton, a stranded actor, his wife and child, and Aberton, a "sky plot" from Boston, who believes that Faro Bill is living with his suspicion is later confirmed. Bill has a mime which every one believes to be worthless. Gerald Morton stakes out one of the best claims in the neighborhood. A San Francisco gambler, named Arbithot, sometimes called "The Tarantula," is a good fortune and determines to promote his own sweetheart of Mrs. Morton and has some of her old love letters. He induces "Pizen" Ike to speak slightly-of Mrs. Morton, so that Gerald proposes a duel, but "Nicolai" is an expert zhot, declares that she will fight the duel in his place. In the meantime "The Tarantula" goes to Gin Mill Jack with a deed to which has been forged the name of his partner, and he will fight it without the "Miner's Paradise." Jack, winked-winked, also signs the paper, and "The Tarantula," after drugging his liquor, leaves Jack unconscious. To make their scheme complete, "Pizen" finds a fencing blade the shaft of the mine, creeps behind him and throws him into the shaft. "The Tarantula" goes with like to the scene of the duel, and Mrs. Morton pleads with him to give up her love letters when he refuses she fails and comes upon the scene, and his suspicions against his wife are strengthened. The duel takes place. Idea's aim misses, and Billy stands unharmed, but he is wounded in the wrist. Billy has been wounded in the back, bottom of the mine, recovers consciousness. He finds the body of Tenderfoot Tom, the mine's original owner, whom Ike had killed. He takes Tom's cap as evidence. Bill strikes gold in proving that his supposed worthless property is, in fact, rich in treasure. "The Tarantula" now insists that Ike finish the match with Gerald Morton. His orders, enforced with his revolver, are about to be carried out when Karo Bill's pick breaks through the ground. Gin Mill Jack, having recovered from the drugged liquor, comes running, ropes him, intending to string the gambler up, and he makes his assistance. Bill tells of the gold he has discovered in his mine. He thrusts Tenderfoot Tom's cap in the face of Ike, who, crazed with superstitious fear, rushes toward the ledge, firing back as he runs. The "sky pilot" throws himself in front of his brother and receives the bullet meant for him. But Gin Mill Jack shoots and wounds Ike, who plunges over the ledge to kill Bill. He has lied about Mrs. Morton and promises to leave the gulch forever, and Gerald asks his wife's forgiveness for his suspicions. This great picture comes to the This Theater on Sunday, one day only. BUM BUNK Some hammer-head, said to be a certain numb-skulled and disgruntled "newspaper man" who has failed to get favorable action on an advertising contract, has started a story on the Stroll that the new Vendome Theater had been condemned. Half a dozen inquiries have been made to the Old Roll Top Desk Man, concerning the matter, and the latter wishes to take this opportunity of stating that if the report were true the handsome big theater would not be doing business. There is probably no more substantial building in the district than the Vendome, and in making this statement we are remembering the fact that in cost upwards of $150,000 to build. It has met every requirement and the most rigid inspection from every department covering construction and safety. The very fact that the house is open is a guarantee that the story is-libel of the most virulent sort, and the people, of the district are warned against paying any attention to foolish reports of the kind. P. FAULKNER DEAD Pierce Faulkner, well known to members of the profession, died in Chicago on March 22 and was buried in Lincoln cemetery. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Susie Faulkner, 2023; Prairie avenue, Chicago, and a sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Bogkin, of Cleveland, Ohio. The patrons of the States theater will have another peek at the doings of the great star of the Fox Company, Tom Mix, on Saturday of this week, when that daring and versatile gent will start in the effete East and wind up in a blaze of glory in the West in an appropriately named special feature called, "Fighting Through." It is a typical "Mix" production and lovers of real red-blooded action will sure be pleased with it. There is enough excitement in this picture to keep eye on the jump and aside that there is a film which is taken care of in the star's own inimitable way. Don't miss this one. THE END OF THE GAME J. Warren Kerrigan, the handsome young screen star, whose new pictures are eagerly awaited by the patrons of the local theaters, will be seen at the enclosed theater on Sunday, April 16th. End of Day Game," a Jesse D. Hampton production. Lois Wilson, the great beauty, who has been this actor's leading lady for many months, will again be seen opposite. It is a show that the West in the days of 49, when men lived with their gums in their hoisters ready for instant use and when intrigue, gambling and fighting were but a part of the daily routine. George Elwood Jenks has written a source of a new type of Western good that is not only sympathetic from the start. He may be a gunman, but he is of the type that has drifted West and entered into the life with a carefree, happy-go-lucky spirit. For movies, joes gamble, perhaps he can shoot and is absolutely fearless, but he has the soul of the real lover and is genuine at heart. All the thrills, stirring action and suspense which serve for the popularism of western dramas are present. The Enchanted Tale, too, there runs a sweet love theme so carefully handled and so truly romantic that it adds a dignity to the sordid struggles of those old days and prefected the picture and the cast is a strenuous one a whole. This picture is well worth seeing, and should not be missed. LAST CHANCE What is really the last chance to see the big production with the all Race cast, "The Homesteader," will occur next Friday, April 11, when it will be the feature at the States theater, State, near 47th street. This picture has made a great record and has been wherever it has been shown. It is in eight great runs and has a wonderful amount of local color. The demands for rebooking speak well for the quality of the picture, which leaves for a long transcontinental tour immediately after this engagement. Don't miss it.

TO MIDNIGHT MOST POPULAR THEATRE ON THE SOUTH SIDE TOM MIX --- DIVORCED SOME STAR "REGENERATION" "REGENERATION" A remarkably strong cast is used in the presentation of "Regeneration," which comes to the Owl theater on Sunday. The story is a wonderful one and in part is as follows: Owen Kildurre, who in later years became known as "the Bowyer Kipling," was named to the Bowyer. His parents died when he was young and he was adopted by a rough family. Barefooted and ill-clad, he was kicked into the street when but 7 years of age and became a newsboy, grit to be a Bowyer tough, a burtoner, a prizekiller. When he was 20 years old Deering, the school teacher, whom he later immortalized in his famous book, "My Mamie Rose." This was the turning point in his career. He met the girl while he was standing in front of the house where he acted as bouncer. Several of his companions began to insult the young woman and he went to her rescue. It was then that his regeneration began. The teacher taught him his A B C's and he proved an apt pupil. He took naturally to writing and naturally fell in love with his good angel. The teacher became engaged. The day of the teacher was fixed, but the young woman suddenly became enragged with grief. He went back to the Bowery at the time to drown his anguish, but memory of her always brought him back—and he finally forsook all Bowery connections. He then wrote "My Mamie Rose"—and, sadly enough, this proved his undoing. Its quick success and stage production placed him under a great and physical strain and he collapsed, finally became so irresponsible that he took charge of him, and in 1911 he died. In "Regeneration" every phase of this great author's life is shown. Don't miss this feature.

Hello, Tony; for the love of Pete, why don't you get down to the office sometimes in the morning; they wanted an act to play a big festival here and I was asked who they could communicate with in Chicago over the long distance phone, so I recommended you and you—you big lobster—you come to the office and get the call. It all comes to the office and get you. I had to go and call Webster's booking office, so they sent on Cross & Green, who handled things well. Well, old pal. I am looking out for you all the time.

Dear Old Friend: Just a few lines to let you know that I am still alive and fond of you. I am old oopie, I am well and doing likewise, that this letter will find you occupying the same sort of dugout. While sitting watching some sad Olay acts just ahead of me on the bill, my mind revered to the Old Master of the Old Tattoo, who honored when I think that these few read by a worthy man who can see things in a different light than most of our brothers, and I am sure proud of you for it. And maybe you wonder why I made up my mind to drop you when I saw you, and I am keeping low for a long time, reading the Defender every issue and tracing your wording of every single item, and I sure have found it distinct in every sense. So you have my hand, anywhere, any time and any place, so keep looking. As Tom Imonler would say, "You sure hold him." Your friend. T. E. CHAPELLE. Of Chapelle & Stinette. SOLDIER HOME Springfield. Tenn. April 4—Lemonia Huey, member of a well known Springfield family, has returned for a month's visit, after eight months in the hospital.

Morey, Vitagraph's rugged, virile star, often referred to as "the star with the steel in his eyes," is one of the most forceful and popular players on the screen. Mr. Morey was born in Charlotte, Mich., and his education completed, he turned to the stage as a profession. He tried Shakespearean roles with varying success, and then found his forte in musical comedy, winning a splendid reputation in Weber & Fields, Anna Held, Montgomery & Stone, and Cohen & Harris shows. Then he turned to motion pictures with Vitagraph, appearing in most of that company's most notable successes, among them being "The Scar," "The Shadow of Fear," "The Making Over of Geoffrey Manning," My Official Wife, "The Next Generation," and "The Law." He was then co-starred with Alice Joyce, number of features, including "Whom the Gods Destroy," "The Courage of Silence" and "The Third Party." He is also remembered for his fine work in two big Vitagraph special productions, and "The Law" by Bayard Villiers, and "Womanhood, the Glory of the Nation." Mr. Morey is seen in one of his biggest roles in "Fighting Destiny," the Vittagraph feature which will be shown for one day, Sunday, April 6, at the Pickford theater. The picture is adapted from the Blue Book Magazine story, "Jungle Heart," written by Stanley Shaw. LULU COATES & CO. Newark, N.

D & SONS THEATER DRAMA IN MOVIE The Stage by Tony Langston SATURDAY, APRIL 5, 1919 DRAM N DRAMATIC EDUCATION DRAMATIC EDUCATION By Clarence E. Muse It is generally understood that when dramatic education is the subject of conversation that we must hold the intention of becoming actors or actresses. This false idea is due in my opinion, to the lack of interest heretofore given the study of the drama. The magnitude of this subject would require the undivided attention of all theater-goers in order to fully appreciate life—as life itself is drama. Character and individuality are two of the most important faculties in the development of the human mind. A man without character is like a ship without a rudder; without individuality, is like the falling star. The question is likely to arise in your mind as to what connection dramatic education has with character and individuality. Through the study of the drama one may develop character because he learns during the course of training to pick out the essential points in other characters of recognized ability, comparison and elimination he is able to make. It is of his own and supply greater elements of idealistic strength, thus rounding out a character admired by successful beings all over the world. Individuality is lost most times because a personality may be suppressed or tyrannized by mannerisms or lack control, and through this training the character can be made to quaint one to be the master of his own expression in order that his personality may shine out with a strong and direct light. Some have groundlessly thought that this sort of drilling might change individual temperament. Instead it develops the temperament and preserves the personality, the appearance and nature of the character, the completely changed in the process and magically approach the normal type of manhood or womanhood. Such a training as this is in reality essential for every walk in life and should be taught in the curriculum of schools, but is not often done to supply this gap in an otherwise liberal education enter dramatic schools without any intention of a stage career, but simply to learn to be a teacher, to teach ourselves and learn to express themselves. SOME LETTER The following interesting epistle I say it again, epistle—arrived on Wednesday and tells its own tale: Portland, Ore., March 21, 1919—Hello, Antonio, Old Pai! The weather is nice, but me when say that we approve it, no previous to yesterday it had been real cool, with rain each day for about five weeks. It is just like summer today.

Don Wormley, our old friend, had us out on the Capitol and we went to Stutz just as just as the roads, and as say are fine the finest in the whole world. here: Freeman Washington, John Bynum and Grant Bradford, and the latter gave us one of the finest feeds of the day, the boyhood friend, Frank Hughes, and he is a royal fellow, believe me. He has done much to make our stay a pleasant one. Washington and Nichols and Langster Bros, were here the first half of the week and made a line impressively. The crew and Ledman are here the last half getting fine press reports.

A. in honor of Moss & Prye, who were playing at the Colonial last week, and what Bob Slater don't know about gumbo ain't worth knowing, and you had ought to have seen the boys eat—oh, boy! Any one would have thought that the whole sang was from New Orleans. At about two bells in walked the celebrated comedians, Bert Williams and Dabney, and right then they started. As soon as Hert got his eye on that pot of gumbo—oh, boy! He hummed off three plates right off the reel and when he called for more that was Bob's cup.

I am at a loss, though, as to what could be done with it in vaudeville. In my opinion it would make a fine attraction for a church concert, a lawn fete or something of that sort. The audiences of that sort will have audiences to which your performing insects will be a novelty. Take the ordinary vod-hound who attends the cheaper theaters where small time acts are shown; they know as much about bugs as you or any, other person. Most of them know that sort you will have audiences of the esthetic chinch and his carnivorous habits than the ordinary monkey knows about the coconut. While I have never seen these mattress hounds trained, I am well aware that they are very intelligent. I remember the monkey who was assigned upstairs. New Orleans; I saw three healthy looking chinches sitting on the bottom of the stairs leading up to the rooms. They remained real still until they heard the clerk mention the number of the room he was assigning me to and was assigned upstairs. What happened that night, plenty, but I won't go into details. It sure was a hot night in December. You are sure a wonder if you have trained those European cooties, and I would like to see that hide-and-seek thing that they pull off—just for future reflections, or for the cultural, provided, of course, that the audience be allowed a clear vision of how they do their hiding and the different routes they follow in making their get-away. I understand, informed by those who had experience with them, that the European cootie is a little larger than our American Seam Squirrel, he feels like a wildcat when he takes his toll, and also that he has LAST CHANCE TO SEE OSCAR MICHEAUX'S GREAT FEATURE, 'THE HOMESTEADER' A POWERFUL DRAMA OF THE NORTHWEST, WITH AN ALL STAR COLORED CAST, ONE DAY ONLY—FRIDAY, APRIL 11th 2 P.

In this respect he is like a lot of bugs we meet in the street, but he is not trained fleas before, however, but not California variety. They tell me that the California breed is the real artistry of breedism and that they are so swell that some of them ride around in their individual dogs. Despite that fact, individual dogs have been labeled, they will nibble anything from a milk-fed millionaire to a thick-licensed Mexican greaser. I am afraid that the ordinary audience would start, so would advise jumping race started, so would advise stitute something else for a closing number: for instance, a wrestling bout between a chinch and a cootie, with a flea refereeing, or something like this, for retesting.

CHANCE SEE S GREAT FEATURE, ESTEADER' THE NORTHWEST, WITH AN COLORED CAST, J. CHAS. D. LUCAS THIS GREAT FEATURE " FRIDAY, APRIL 11th MIDNIGHT THEATER E STREET STOP EXPERIMENTING----USE FULTO PAGE TEN To almost every girl comes a desire to act in the movies, but to have this coveted opportunity thrust upon her is the unique distinction enjoyed by Miss Bertha Rudner, "a pretty 19-year-old Chicago girl, is now on the read road." Camera! It all happened this way: Miss Rudner, who resides with her mother and numerous sisters and brothers at 1901 West Taylor street, applied to the studio of the Delight Film Company, Inc. at 22d street and Wabash avenue, for "extra work." The production director, Jack MacCulloch, saw in her such an excellent type" that he suggested she take training of a direct route to success, instead of a long, tedious way to the studio. An extra work was required. In furtherance of this idea Miss Rudner was given a try-out to determine her aptitude for screen work. She was found to be excellent. Action! The young lady grinned the idea enthusiastically. She was for making arrangements for her tuition in the training department of the company immediately. But the business manager of the company, adhering to the policy of the firm, advised her to go home and sleep on the proposition. Then if she felt the same way about it she was to return on the morrow. Register Joy! It was typical of Miss Rudner that she was as sure as a new day. She fairly bounded into the business office, happy to be able to take the training that would admit her into her cherished profession, she said she was not sure if she would out applicants for the training department are subjected to. But she did not know then how really lucky she was. Miss Rudner submitted a check for $20 as initial payment on her contract. The check was payable on a war relief check. The check was submitted to Von Lofthy, director general of the company, for his approval. Register Gloom! In a few minutes she was ushered into the director general's office, where she was told the check was not acceptable. The sunshine went out of the girl's face. She sat in in the big lounging chair and sat on the lap of homelessness — about attractive human beings. "Mother wants me to take the course," she said meekly; "she indorsed the check." Register Ecstasy! The director general regarded her keenly. He did not smile. Then he handed a slip of paper. It was a contract for a full course in the company's training department and it was marked "Paid in full." Is Miss Rudher lucky? She says so. Flash Back! When the director general received the check he staged in a quiet little investigation. He found Miss Rudher a working girl earning a good salary, but the sole support of a family of nine. Her father is out fighting for his country. The director general, called in his production manager, the girl said, "he had asked 'She answers.' was the production manager's enthusiastic reply. "Do you think there is a future for her in the films?" "I do." "That is all." The producer director went back to his desk and the director general or contract that gave the happy and her chance to make the top in the movies without depriving her family or herself of a single penny of needed support. Back to Scene! Is Miss Rudner lucky? She'll say she is. The Delight Film Company is operating its training department on a novel and highly conscientious plan. A reporter, quietly investigating, found that an unattended person has about as much chance of making that department no matter how much money bounty offers, as an elephant has of firing. Path of Roses—but Thorny Type: physical qualifications as they relate to camera requirements, aptitude at expression, ability to "feel" a part, and even the domestic and economic ability to work fully weighed, and if they fail to come up to standard on so little as any one of these, their application blanks bear the big, ugly word stamped in red letters, "Impossible." But of more than five hundred applicants, some fifty are acceptable—one out of every ten. Ability and ingerness to pay is a negative quantity with the delight people of the applicant's tryout is poor. Applicants under age must bring their parents; married persons must bring their husband or wife, as the court will. While a reporter was in the office little Miss Martha Hernsten of 5276 California avenue, was brought in by her mother. The little lady is the years old. The mother was anxious to enter in the training department. The university looked the little one on. Shedding a Bud "She has not the strength now," he said. "She is too young; bring her back a year later; maybe then..." "The mother protested, but the daughter protested, but the daughter left, all concealing her disappointment." "This is a sample of what we have every day," the business manager remarks to the reporter. "They go away peace, but after they think over it a little while they realize that the driver general is right and they thank him." "The training embraces all that." motion picture performer must know to be a professional. The art is taught through actual camera experience on the studio floor. Every essential, even down to the point of getting the student's eyes accustomed to the photographic lights, is given strict attention. Playing Fair With Ambition The Delight Film Company's department by all appearances is at least one training institution for movie acting and production, and he speaks with authority, because he is investigated and he should know—and he does. And he also knows that Miss Rudner is a fortunate young lady, and from producer MacCallum says of her work she is a future movie star, sure nuff. R. R.

Central high school girls' basketball team defeated the girls of State university of this city in a clean and hard fought game before a crowd that packed the local "Y" gymnasium so that it was hardly possible to play the game. This was the first meeting of State and Central in some years and the viejo game much to the winners. The score was 15 to 14. The product hading and sinning of both schools added much interest to the game. Central girls' second team won the preliminary also from State's second team by the score of 6 to 4. The third game was played by the local "Y" and Cump Taylor's加强ened team and was won by the former by a score of 16 to 18. This marks the closing of the basket ball season here, which in every way has been a big one. One or more bases are occupied. The batter hits a foul ball which is not caught. When it is returned to the field, the baseman gets it and tries to execute the double play. The pitcher gets on the slab and makes motion to pitch (a balk), and the umpire permits the runners to advance. As long as the ball had not been put in the baseman's pocket, the pitcher makes a balk; that is, a legal balk? No. The umpire, under such conditions, should not declare a balk, as the ball was out of play until returned to the pitcher and declared in play by the umpire. What is the interpretation of "one base on overthrow" when considered a ground ball? Ground rules may vary according to agreements made by the umpire and the captains of two opposing teams. The base on an overthrow" means one base added to the ball to which the runner is going; but that point must be settled before the game. The batter bunts to the pitcher, who tries to run him down. The runner starts back toward home plate and the pitcher uses as the pitcher tries to touch him, but, because of the netting out of line, is between home base and the beginning of the three-foot line, is the runner out? The runner is out under the section 7 of the rules for baseball rules states, "more than three feet from direct line between a base and the next one in regular or reverse order." With third base occupied, the coach or runs toward home as the pitcher starts his delivery. The pitcher, thinking that the coach is the base runner, makes a balk. Should the umpire declared out the runner on third? The umpire should excuse the balk and cause the coach to leave the field. A man is on third base while the team is arguing about the ball. After er, other than the runner on third, runs home from third and is touched out by the catcher. Haa the umpire the right to call out the man at third base? No. The rule covers plays similar to when a play is being made only when a play is being made, and with less than two men out.

Mos. moss as captain of the American Giants. "Rube" then paused and paid Capt. Hill's tribute. He said Mr. Hill had been captain of the team for more than twelve years and had at times been from him and that he could always depend upon him to "bring home the bacon." Players From "Overseas" Back "Juddy" Gans, Grant, Bobby Johnson and others who have been overseas were in the line-up. All the boys and many fans present gave them the glad thank you. They were healthy and expect to be in the good for all its worth. "Juddy" wore his uniform to the park and looked like a French general. He told many interesting stories about his trip overseas and how the people over there had heard about the wonderful ball games in the American Giants through the medium of the Chicago Defender and other movies. Players Practiced Hard All the players practiced hard. One would have thought it was in the middle of June. Base running, stealing, and running to hone palms were some of the stunts pulled off in the practices. Many joints were loosened up this week by "Rubie" having the boys to do some fast running and the girls to roar in prospect was Barber. He went around the diamond like a race horse. His batting and base running is a big assurance to the American Giants. It was proven that Rubie's players have lost any of their old time vim and speed. They all seem to know the rules and what they don't know about schoolmaster, Chief Foster. All have implicit confidence in him. Pennant Winner When one looks over the list of players one cannot but pick the PHILADELPHIA GIANTS START DAILY PRACTICE Philadelphia, Pa., April 4.

Y. and Harry Wills, who showed Silas Green a thing or two. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER "JUDY" GANS Who Was Made Sergeant While "Overseas" Now With American Giants Who Was Made Sargent While "Over seas," New With American Giants. KING American Giants as pennant winners, although Hill says his team is going to show the world that they are the best. Rubie's pitchers look like winners. His boys seem to have the speed stuff. This you cannot cancel in world headers. There is a keen competition in the outer field. There are several who are making a fight for these positions and the best will win. Inside Stuff Next Week All next week Mr. Foster will take up the work of "inside stuff" calculated to improve the insideidding. Demonstrations of the proper way to slide and to place the ball upon the runner will be made. Questions of all kinds will be put to the player by Poster to know his stuff. A number of articles on the subject, Capt. James Smith, who received the highest citation in the 53rd Infantry told Sht. Lleuat, Tom Johnson. Sergea Bobby Williams, Juddy Gans, corporate Johnson, corporal McDougal and Private Johnson, corporal McDougal and stars of the diamond, held a reunion First Game April 13 The first game of the season will be played April 13 at the American Giants Park. The game will be against the well known Rogers Park. Word comes that this team is a strong one and will show fluff that they make rings around his neck. Tickets will be on sale the middle of the next week. UNCLE EPH SAYS: Just a word to the man in uniform: We are all glad that you went over the top and did your bit in France but remember that the only way that you can honor the uniform is to do your bit here. The uniform does not give you license to insult ladies in public places. This is intended only for those who do not. The only black eye States Attorney Hayne received on the South Side was the support he is alleged to have served from a lady who owns a league of "WHICH SHE IS PRESIDENT." The leaders are so busy in politics they have not time to take stock of what they are State street. They will awaken some of the problems in Chicago, instead of solving them in Georgia, Mississippi and Alabama. Mississippi we own our banks and we are supported in our people. In Chicago we support them, the other fellow owns them, and we are represented by a janitor. TYLER SPEAKS IN DETROIT AROUND The DIAMOND BY CARY B. LEWIS Fans wishing to journey to Detroit, Mich., to see the Detroit Stars' opening game will be furnished railroad tickets by "Uncle," is the report on Special. Count us in on that "Daddy" Foster. Let no one forget the date, Sunday, April 20. The report also states that Foster is undesired whether sleeping car tickets will be given, then be true, then look out for Andy White, the Mack, Bill Adams and Walter Speedy; they'll sure be there with Giants' banners. Owing to the limited space given to the sport pages this season and the large number of teams to have their games reported from all parts of the country, reporting editor will have to refrain this season from using box scores of many teams and report games by innings. There will be an exception only to the large cities where there are big teams and interest in them nationally warrants this. One of the maneuvers to be incorporated by Andrew Foster at the American Giants' practice for the coming season will be sliding to bases. The Giants are usually pretty good at this, but "Tube" has a time getting Planes to make the bases perfectly. HERE'S THE BASE, NOT He runs like a tiger, but sometimes misses the base, his head going one way and feet the other. Look out, Mr. "Lown Down," fans are watching you this season. "Rube" is going to offer prize for the most perfect base runner. A fifty-word night letter telegram on a Sunday night after the game will insure the report in the Defender instead of waiting the next day to state the report. The sender can state home team so many scores in each inning and the visitors so many scores in each inning. This can be added by the sporting editor of the paper and tally reported. William White, manager of the New York office and expert sporting writer, will have charge of the Eastern sport, as he did last season. He is a clever writer and "knows his stuff." He will "cover" New York City and Brooklyn, other cities to send their reports direct to the newspaper, the claims he is going to give his "brother" sport writers a run for their money this year. All right, White; so to it. Some of the "boys on the Stroll" were speaking about the famed Monroe the other day. We did not hear what they were talking about, but we have led any league, hitting, base running and fielding. His presence is missed every day on the American Giants team. As a fitting memorial to his team, a tablet might be inserted on a conspicuous part of the Giants grand stand. Lient. "Juddy" "Gans is back from France. He was back from French women. They liked his pose. He learned French quickly and spoke it fluently. His military hearing was improved. He then went to Vincendon, 59th French Division, out was this week for practice. He REMINDS ME OF THE LIL' OLD HAND GRENADE. JUDY was in fine trouble and expects to be on the living line with the giants. "Juddy" is a good outfielder as well as a splendid stick man and can hold down the mound whenever called upon. The fans have given him a wonderful reception since his return. Malina of the Cuban Stars writes that he will have a great team this summer and expects to do the American can to a team. "White expects to do likewise, so we may expect some interesting games this season. The Lincoln Giants. Detroit, Mich., were cheated out of a good practice Sunday, March 30. Manager Goode was disappointed because he had booked a practice game with the Liberty University recreation director, will address the club at the Lincoln School, Brady and St. Antoine street.

EASTERN SPORTING WORLD BY WHITE Do Their Bit at Madison Square, New York Not only did many of our boxes do their bit for the old 16th, at the 17th regiment armory, after the parade Feb. 17, but were big-hearted enough to go to Madison Square Garden Monday to buy their bit again for the 27th division (white) on the eve of their parade. Harry Wills, Smoke Kelly, Joe Jeannette, Silas Green and many others contributed to the entertainment, which was under the auspices of the Boxers Loyalty League.

St. Christopher's Yearly Report Christopher's Yearly Report The St. Christopher Red and Black Machine brought to a close one of the most successful seasons of its career. By winning all of its games they left no one to doubt or protest their claim to the much coveted title. Alpha, Spartan and the Machine twice this season; there feated by them were the Morninside A.

He was this city through Bob Blakeley, an American soldier, who once made arguments with Gordon in the tastic battle in the northern coast. Blakeley stated among the sympathizers of the red terror and gained recognition when he took the stump in defense of the hollow movement in the streets of Petrograd. Billy Gordon styles himself "professor" and on his card, shown in the ПРОИЗВЕСКОР Битти ГОРДОНЬ ИРДЫЙ АМЕРНАЯ ГОКИ КОРЕСР УМЕДИИК above picture, is written: "Professor Billy Gordon, Americanist Boxen Champion."

Has Fought His Last Battle Strange as it may seem, when you take into consideration that he won his last battle with Howard at Manhattan Casino, Friday evening, March 21, Bill Madden, better known in the basket ball world as "Little Napoleon," has fought his last big battle and is practically dead, dead forever. However, the writer will venture to say that Bill has done a whole lot for the game in the East, but he was too smart and knew too much about the game. This has caused his downfall. At Manhattan Casino his best friend was the proprietor, Eddie Waldron, of taking any glory away from Howard, who has stuck by Madden for years also, we venture to say the attendance at the recent game has caused them to change their minds for 1920. The large crowd that used to greet the players from the nation's capital in days zone by, was not in evidence, Romeo L. Dougherty, sporting editor of the New York News, once said: "Madden has been successful at came-out fusing sporting writers." The writer believes you were right, Romeo. Foster Forces Madden to Quit Foster Forces Madden to Quit Hoboken, N. J, 1, April 4—On Tuesday Foster forced Billy Madden to young Ruba Foster forced Billy Madden in the seventh round of their schedule eight-round bout before the Hoboken A. C., with a crashing right upper to the jaw that sent him sprawling through the ropes. The fight was for much of the second round of the song until the sixth round of guerilla affair, when Foster capped Madden with a combination left hook and right upper arm which dazed him considerably. The bell saved him, when the seventh round opened up Madden's left shoulder. Corner laugh- ing and joking Madden, a bolt of lightning, his first caught Madden flush on the jaw, which caused his seconds to throw the sponge in the runs. This win over Madden places him in the middleweight title, and may be grabbed to save punches with Harry Gries (white), the present title holder. To Train Dempsey New York, N. Y.

My brother's keepes the paramount idea of the league of nations, a special question she brought to near home. In discussing individual responsibility she spoke directly to each mother and father present and each man, woman and child as well. Abundant with treasures from her vast store of knowledge, the address was interesting from beginning to end. After it, one could feel that poverty, with its utter lack of the heritage of any particular race or people. She deplored the fact that the government discovered its mistake of withholding a few million which would have prepared its citizens for better citizenship only after it had spent billions for munitions andaments, the devices of destruction. She spoke of every crime and attentive audience. Miss Englehart introduced by Julius N. Avendorph, who hasn't failed yet to secure a speaker of the best type. Miss Alpha Bratton favored the lyeum with "Gal. Mother of Mine" and "Little Gal." Miss Bertha Williams at the piano climbed her audience in two numbers, Fantastics, one of her own compositions. Both artists are of the highest quality, their best in rendering these numbers. Miss Ethel Ward, president, presided and announced Judge Kavunagh for the next speaker. M.

While Dr. Robbins and choir were at St. Mark's the Rev. John W. Robinson and choir of St. Mark's were being greeted by a congregation that filled the Ravenswood Church auditorium and balcony. The hearing given Dr. Robbins in that fashionable white church, as the spoke on "The Centenary and the Second" Chicago and America, was a compliment of the speaker and the Race. St. Mark's choir offered "Indammatus" and several other numbers here in a most gratifying manner. If we had such an interchange of pupils more often the races would profit by it.

THE WAY TO WIN Don't spend your time thinking how much you can get out of your employer's business. It won't pay him nor will you see how much you can get out of the business. This will pay you both. Your employer, no matter how selfish you may think him to be, will quickly take your measure. The more selfish you want the worker who works for you, as for himself. He will hold on to the man or woman in his employ who is increasing his business and his profits. The efficient employee will be the last of the efficient employee will be the first chosen by other employers in the same line of business in search of good men. Every successful, self-made man or honesty, industry and success is the way by which Carnegie rose from telegraph operator to the head of the largest steel corporation in the world. This is the way by which Schwab achieved the独尊 of the独尊 of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation, and John D. Rockefeller from clerk in a country store to the head of one of the greatest oil industries in the world and had his methods of the competition by all his successful competitors. Every successful banker and business man in the self-made class, whose interest we use with such absorbing interest, we need not openposing but by helping his employer; not by watching the clock, not by seeking as many leisure hours as possible, not by success and not by the end that his employer might win and that he might be a winner with him. Let the reader who is familiar with the interesting stories of our business man who carried out this plan and failed. Build for your employer.

Forty miles from this city on the, Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, lies the dreary mill town of *coastville*, Pa. Though north of the Mason and Dixon line, the city has always had an atmosphere of the south. A few years ago steel mills began to spring up in *coastville*, and with the steel mills came many foreigners, laborers in the plants. Running true to form, the southern settlers of *coastville* contaminated everything decent or semi-place that has long been a consequence of dissension. But a few years ago the people of *coastville* "celebrated" a knitting of two of our Race. For this city's charter and for a time they were outlawed. Just now, however, they have forgotten that, probably because the famous state constabulary of *coastville* owned them with them, and *coastville* again is up to its old tricks—battling the Race man. Rounded Up by Agents Like other mill towns, the attention of Coatesville was brought to our people in the south as a place to earn big money making munitions, and north as a place to build machines in the Coatesville mills. They did their bit for democracy in Europe right there in Coatesville. When the war was over the mills shut down and north was left vacant. Not caring to go back south, the discharged laborers remained in the town. But this was not to the liking of the southern whites there, and they began recently a round-up of former Coatesville residents. Fifteen IA Coatesville constable, with local police and members of the mounted state constabulary, raided the places where members of our Race used to live, and showed that they were residents of Coatesville were herded together and driven like cattle to a lonely point at the south of the town, where Coatesville had been "heeded south". No effort was made by the "democratic" authorities to learn whether any of these people, among whom it is said were women and children, raised funds to leave Coatesville. A group of men were shown to those who might have been ill; all were driven out—into the PAGE FIFTEEN Clifford Clark Buried Clifford Clark, of 3636 Forest avenue, died March 26, 1919, at Lake Paterson. He was ill only nine days previous to his death. His intended wife, Posey Bates, bedside until his death, and held his hands as he passed away. His son, Michael, was for Mother Haley, asking her to sing and pray. Miss Bates made several arangements and accompanied the body home w A. B. the body home with his sister, Mrs Leah Christian, to Bolla, Mo. swamps or anywhere, but out of Contesville they went. Investigation tends to show that the thing, horrible in every detail, and which brought untold misery to its victims and death to some, was engineered by southerners for the purpose of our Race who, having left that accursed part of the country, now refuse to return there. It appears that a well-formulated plan has been set in operation to snize terrorists those southerners from work in the north and yet refuse to go back south, that they will be forced to come back. The south needs these men, needs them bad, but the north needs them good, and seek to learn, how these people should be treated. Up to date there has been no organized complaint from the people of Contville in reference to this rival's threats to those of the Prussia. A detachment on duty in the town in order to more readily be able to shoot down those others of the Race who may get up enough courage to resist. Ask what courage they have, and authorities said that crime has shown a tremendous increase since the signing of the armistice. Investigation showed that the tendency in crime was greater in a proportion among the South than in the North. Thus it will be seen how patriotism was rewarded, in democratic America.

Pannie Hall Hall's first reading was "The Royal Archer" and the second was "The Black Regiment." Perhaps there are few elocutionists in the country who can surpass Mrs. Clint's ability as a finished artist. She recited the poem "The Black Regiment," phenomenal tenor singer, favored audience with two selections, "Ah, But a Day," and Snow Flakes. His voice was sweet and pleasing and for an encore song his own selection, "Mammy's Little Black Child," a hit of the eve- nion of the 1950s. The Thema Simons and Everett M. Renfroe. Miss Simons as a pianist showed she was a conscientious and hard working student and her conditions were strictly classical and technically difficult. Young Renfroe gave evidence of superior training and musical ablity of the greatest cornet soloist, rendered two selections that caused very favorable comment and added greatly to the even- ing's program. Prof. Scarborough, president of Wilberforce University, praised the program, the Chicago Defender and said that Chicago had more talent than the other cities. The Y. W. C.

The city clerk read the names of those commended and a report of their various acts of bravery. In the report special mention was made of the capture of Negro burglars by the various officers of the police department. Alderman Jackson took exception to the language of the report, especially mentioning "Negro burglars," and the following action resulted: Alderman Jackson — I want to amend to the effect that all reference to aces in the report be stricken out. A burglar is a burglar; a murderer is a murderer. When you talk about one specimen and hold it up to the entire community, you people committing these acts; "the report says 'Colored,' and 'a Negro' it should be stricken out. You have Polish burglar, Irish burglar, German burglar and Scandinavian burglar. We ought not to pick out any one race and designate that race as burglar. I move you that all references to races be stricken out. Alderman Maypole — I second the motive. Alderman Powers — Also second the motion. Alderman McCormick — That's right; strike it out. Alderman Woodhull. Alderman Jackson is to be commended. It is wrong and he is right. Mr. Mayor — So ordered unless there are objections. The record will be muted and be amended by striking but an order to any race. It stands that way unless there are objections. There are none. Rev. Carey Entertains Bishops' Board Rev. A. J.

Barnett WEEKLY TALKS ON REAL ESTATE MORTGAGES AND LOANS There has been considerable speculation in the market on mortgages and loans made on property occupied by our people, and many banks have absolutely refused to consider negotiable paper where the property given as security is in a locality that has any evidence of being inhabited by us. This condition does not exist in New York, Philadelphia, Boston or any of the larger cities and it is not beaten by the business of brokers do not want our money, for some are doing business with us every day and conservatively advertise to get it. The fact that a minor number of dealers are now making enormous profits there is no argument that will sustain the prejudice set up by local boomerang agents and a few narrow business men who are injecting discrimination into public sentiment. It has been interesting to note that there has been a long tradition of enlighten these declarations or direct our trade through our own channels. It is well known that for eight or ten years before the war that buildings in the city of Chicago exceeded the demand. Large office buildings, apartments, and warehouses were thrown up faster than the building commissioners could inspect or our street department could grade the roads supplying the building material. Everybody who could excavate a for sale lot would have money to start. Contractors sent out their representatives daily to secur the city for loans. Building sharks conceived the idea of incorporating and bonding the buildings, offering flat-rate rentals to the building could sell small bonds, and gathered the loose change from the public. Concessions were given to tenants to fill the apartments and offices with the understanding that they were to pay rentals to the next landlord only or vacant. Following these methods, which drained the entire loan market and caused a panic among investors seeking mortgages on old flat buildings and residences and vacant property, we find that we are held responsible for the conditions; but it is only a matter of time before the banks, brokers and those who have money to loan on real estate will be compelled to abound in the policy of holding the property in neighborhoods where our people live or stand idle and witness thousands of whites who have millions of dollars invested in real estate, suffer the loss of their money and their property. Sergeant Johnson St. Louis, Mo., April 4—Friday night Sergeant Johnson of the famous Fifteenth New York regiment, addressed a large and enthusiastic crowd at the rally, criticizing the treatment accorded our soldiers by white officers who did not hold up their end of the democracy banner and who showed racial prejudice in many ways. He claimed when the boys were sent to the front line in World War II, French because the American marines did not want to share the honors on the battlefield with them. He decried racial prejudice, saying no color line was in evidence in burying the dead, black and white being dumped in small places together, and there was no line when it came to taking German bullets. Miss. Victoria Clay Haley was in charge of the arrangements which brought Sergeant Johnson here, and the hero was given $1,500 for his part in the celebration. Among the speakers were Major Kiel and Lieutenant Fearing.

With the white residents of East St. Louis one steps, and they would have been so doing. Had they fought and themselves and their homes no while them. And because we do not white and one for the black forces the cause of Dr. Bundy. IN JULY of 1917 the sovereign state of Illinois was disgraced by a race riot at East St. Louis. To fully understand the conditions out of which the trouble grew it is necessary to take a comprehensive view of the rottenness of civic conditions in that unfortunate city. For years vicious political machines, both Democratic and Republican, had dominated its municipal affairs. The law was constantly suspended by those in authority, and because of the laxity of law enforcement low dives sprang up without number, disreputablets from the surrounding country swarmed in, and all this, added to the supineness of the police force, made a situation that was well nigh volcanic in its possibilities. THE LABOR UNIONS, inspired by the situation, thought the time ripe to settle a long-standing grievance with the employers of labor, who from time to time had been charged with importing large numbers of our workmen from the South. Our people, scenting trouble, commenced to arm themselves and to make such preparations for defense as were thought necessary. Among the leaders of this defensive movement was Dr. Leroy Bundy, a practicing dentist. IT IS NOT OUR PURPOSE HERE to defend the life of Dr. Bundy nor his methods in dealing with the situation prior to the riot. It has been charged by his enemies that his practices were not altogether commendable. The fact remains, however, that in playing the part that he did he acted only as any other sensible, far-seeing man would have done under like circumstances. He knew conditions as few other men in that section knew them. He knew the mob spirit of the white man, whether the mob comes from Texas or Illinois, and when he saw the storm gathering he prepared to fight. ANY OTHER RED-BLOODED MAN would have done what Bundy did. He exercised a right that is as old as the centuries—the right of self-defense. We have had too much supineness on the part of our people in such crises, and it is decidedly refreshing to find a member of our group who knows his rights and is not afraid to defend them. The proneness of our people to move along the lines of least resistance to forms of outlawry such as characterized the actions of the East St. Louis mob encourages and feels this form of evil. THERE IS BUT ONE WAY to deal with a mob—that is to prepare for it, and when you see it in action move to meet it with every weapon at your command. We have found from bitter experience, and this case is no exception, that we cannot depend upon the police, the posse of the sheriff, or the militia. If Bundy felt that the forces of constituted authority could not be depended upon to safeguard the lives and property of our citizens, was he not then justified in taking the steps that he did? ALL IN ALL, one must regret that the governor of the state, who was undoubtedly in touch with the situation, did not take prompt measures to forestall the trouble. We are informed that his adjutant general had been on the scene for several days for the purpose of keeping the chief executive of the state informed as to conditions. A little exercise of executive backbone at the proper moment might have resulted in the saving of many lives and in preventing the destruction of thousands of dollars worth of valuable property. It might have kept the great state of Lincoln and Grant from stepping into the same column with Texas and Mississippi. THIS WAS NOT DONE, and a black and bloody page was written into the history of Illinois. A few white men have been given light sentences, a few of our men heavy sentences, as a matter of course, and Leroy Bundy, one of the central figures, must serve a sentence of life imprisonment. We believe that Dr. Bundy's case presents a gross miscarriage of justice when all the facts in the case are considered. We believe him to be the victim of prejudice and clamor. In England or France he would have been acquitted, in all probability, but in America, where the color of a man's skin has much to do with the measure of justice dealt out to him, things are quite different. The white participants in the Springfield riot of a few years ago went upon the witness stand and openly confessed their part in the disgraceful scenes that gave a lasting black eye to the capital of the state, and were acquitted. There was no excuse for their conduct, but much can be said in palliation of the conduct of Bundy and those associated with him. IT IS NOT OUR PURPOSE to hold up Dr. Bundy as a martyr, nor do we wish to enter into a defense of the criminal element of our people. If they violate the law we want to see them punished. We cannot escape the conviction, however, that in the case of Dr. Bundy the element of color prejudice entered too largely, and if a reviewing court cannot see its way to right the wrong which we believe has been done him, then the matter should be brought strongly to the notice of the pardon board of the state with a view of securing his freedom. IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING in this connection that the trouble for which this unfortunate community was made to suffer lies primarily at the door of the lawless white element. For days they had been muttering dire threats against our people until, in their alarm, they began to make preparations for the defense of their lives and property. With the conditions reversed the white residents of East St. Louis would have taken the same steps, and they would have been commended on all sides for so doing. Had they fought and taken life in defense of themselves and their homes no white jury would have convicted them. And because we do not believe in one law for the white and one for the black forces us to array ourselves in the cause of Dr. Bundy.

CHICAGO DEFENDER THE SOUTH Defender's Foreign Representative Writes of Racial Activities in Paris Tells of Black Troops Under Foreign Flags (Copyright by the Chicago Defender) BY ROSCOE S. SIMMONS BY ROSCOE C. SIMMONS Paris, Jan. 28. - On a London day in London town, scarcely a fortnight ago I was standing on Charing Cross Road, near a corner, beating content to have edged myself through the crowds of the world's most conquered city, so near the entrance M. But a moment before I stood in the lobby of the famous Savoy Hotel, I met the British officer on matters colonial. The British stand out on the colonizing idea of Government. They Col. Simmons. Government. They of what they know by a famous man who bore the name of G. Washington Numbers were this man, friends and they were not afraid to stand against the mother land after intellectual strife had failed to persuade her that it is simply not possible to keep in slavery those who do not want to stay there. This is invariably true, if the slave is equal in mind to the master. In search of my bearings—in London that no such things as books—in search of my hearing among the countless lines that wind in and out I wheeled to face the Waldorf, corner of American activity. Coming towards me, with steady step, eyes forward and in perfect form, were three soldiers, dark men of the war. I forgot that it was a direction I sought, and moved out towards the path these soldiers, as if they drew nearer to me I caught the words printed in gold on their caps. THE KING'S OWN The King's Own! Own what? I said in my mind. I shall see what king it is who can claim soldiers such as these. On they came, looking nelly. Admiring Britons stepped aside, giving them all eye and plenty of room. And You. Who? "Pardon me, gentlemen," I said, having been taught both cheek and language by the American white man whose language, like his cheek, belongs to his civilization, and to his civilization, for if he complains, he could just as easily complain because he doesn't speak English. "Pardon me," I said. The three stopped short, but not abruptly. Inarticulate as all Englishmen, I confess that I was not prepared to meet any dark men anywhere in the world who didn't know it all, and were not ready to tell it, and more. Not a word spoke either. Each sumy salute, and smiled, waiting on me to come in, and arrested the attention of the chair. "You are soldiers of the Crown." I said, having within three days fallen into usage of phrases common to England. "I replied the youngest of the three, with all the confidence of youth. "Who are you?" he said. And indeed, who was I? "Rather, what I could not say that I hailed from State street or Beale, for though there was the color of gold unalloyed, they were the glories of paths all Ethiopia hopes, so scorned tread. I gave them my name, and was on the verge of confessing that in my part of the vineyard I was fairly well known, and that even in London readers of the Chicago Defender would be expected to readily recall my name when came the question straight as an arrow; "What is your nationality?" "What is your nationality?" Nationality! Heaven deliver its sons from any minute description of their heritage. Our country is their home, I promptly ended my marriage well as their apprehension by saying that I was an American, a rather black one, though the London fog had suddenly lightened my original hue. But none of that would they have. "Colored." I said, hoping that that paradoxical word would relieve the situation. It did. And the moment I had established my identity, that one drop of Britain's immortal red turned a diffident tone, gave quartette. I am rather proud that my blood is red rather than blue. Indeed, the King's Own Mother of the Kings Own These soldiers came to London from the Indian general possession of King George. They were planned to go on to the front, but before they were needed the armistice had been signed, and they were in London under orders. I inquired as to how they came to be in the division and when they came to King Own. The answer started me: indeed. Only the Colored subjects of the King belonged to that division. They were chosen from the island possessions, and given that name as one bitting those who can be depended on when the battle is hostile. A short time when the battle is hostile, a few were in London at that time, the remaining numbers being scattered, under orders, throughout the camps of the kingdom. From time to time ten of them were sent into London to see the sights of the great city, and learn of the government of the motherland. Though it was not necessary for them to so advise me, yet they were of one voice in the reminder that soldiers, officers or privates, are not allowed to that they were not in danger. I assured them that they were not in danger, but that the world of color, that be the hidden of the governments of the world while sharing but few of its benefits, would be happy to learn that their own, in blood and hope, and in tears and chants, were counted worthy to be the most affectionate title that could be honored by the greatest empire the world had seen since the golden days of Rome. Proud of England These Indians, black Indians, hailing from the silver isles of the Atlantic, were proud of England, and England seemed proud of them. They thought so. I asked them if they had seen either bed, board or a drink since that had been in London. With unanimous agreement, the word, they judged me off my base. "Why, we are the King's defenders," said one hotly. I thought of my own land, the garden spot of time, seat of the grand government of modern hope; and of the Ninth and Tenth, of the Twenty-fifth, of the ninety-fifth, of the loyalty touching, make soft the hearts of bines, and of polished—and of—well—of so many thingsbed, board, drink, the ballot, the Honorable James Crow, Ltd., and, then, of what these indignant "King's Own" said to me; to me, "We are the King's defenders." And I—had I not—do I not still, even in France, frescht land in the world, though mine is the fatest—denounced kings, and such, holding to my relig- ion: God,—then "of the people, by the people!" All Days Teachers But all days are teachers, and every new situation is a schoolroom. This high day with black soldiers ready to die for England was instructor, and face to face with subjects of a Sovereign—that was a schoolroom, and pray, every minute saw its lesson. There they were, three of them, one from Jamaica, another from Barbados, and, if my notebook is faithful, my friend Fridaida. With all the ardor of youth I had, the war had been declared adjourned, for surely it would have ended gloriously if they could have had a shot at the wicked soldiers of Great Wilhelm. White Officers. Though I inquired as to their officers, who they were, and where they were from. My wish was to get out and look up her captain and with my own eyes see her in black leaders of black legions of His Majesty's warriors. The reply sent me in an entirely different direction and to an entirely different end. "Why?" said one of them, "We do not have the choosing of our officers. We are not given the commands. Our officers are white Englishmen." There was a tone of pride. "White Englishmen!" That was not bad, since most of the English are white both in heart and color. But I ekoned on an answer more to my pen than to my mouth. I had not been able to understand in America. I was not any more able to understand in London, why it is that men who figure out themselves to be above others are usually anxious to go to war and to be in danger. Glory is a thing of marriages, but one heart: selfish, sleepless selfish. But I had no quarrel with England, being an American with troubles enough of my own. At least I had not been able to grow car since leaving Kentucky, nor be a scorner's brow since leaving New York. We parted, the quartet, the blacks of British satisfied with their title, and a black of America satisfied to be native to land that has nerve enough to stand on a closed ballot box and wave the flag of justice in the face of the world. You have got to hand it to this American white man—that's all! (Continued next week) "LET'S GO!" It was left for the Colored troops to coin one of the most distinctly American slogans of the war. A colonel) of one of the Negro regiments stated that his men received every order with the formula. "Let's go." Were they told they could be sold or to charge they answered with the same expression of hearty goodwill. "Let's go." It is a truly American sentiment. It expresses action rather than waiting. It is what the whole nation said when the period of letter writing was over, it was the fighting watchword from Cantigny to Sedan, Nay, it is the watchword still, for when America is called upon to go over the wall for a lasting peace, be sure she will answer, "Let's go."—Chicago Journal.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES HYGIENICS AND SANITATION No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in These Weekly Articles DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL MEDICINE It is gratifying to note the gradual and ever-increasing development and appreciation of social medicine. Prior to 1894 the physicians were trained in stituted by the wise men of the community, viz: Health authorities and public spared citizens who enforce these measures solely for the protection of those with contagious and infectious diseases and to protect those who are exposed to them. Other Reportable Disease Recently tuberculosis has been made a reportable disease. A great oppression spring up and still continues. People have been running from this disease for centuries and are still running, but this awful "white plague" is ever present. To get rid of tubercular infecundia, we need to see that, according to Ossler, we will have to treat them per cent of the human family. There are people who feel it is a disgrace and a reflection on their good character and name to be told they have tuberculosis, either in themselves or their family; and these people will practice health concealment and deceive others with health concealment and others—even their own family. This is not to be wondered at, because there has always been a certain stigma in the public mind as regards tuberculosis; and many patients feel it is eminently proper and right to conceal this disease from the public. But any person who does not believe that this is absolutely impossible. Tuberculosis is like murder. "It will out" We, too, believe in the sacred rights of the individual to keep his infection from the saze of the general public; however, we do not believe it is proper for the physician for any member of the community to conspire with the saze of communication with any individual who has communicated diseases at the risk and expense of the general public. Therefore, we heartily favor the stand now taken by social medicine and the reporting of all contagious and communicable diseases that by concealment would prove disastrous to the social order. By reporting, quarantining, treating, these cases of communicable diseases, ensure the rights of the individual and at the same time restore him to health. Advancement of Public Opinion We now note with a considerable degree of pleasure the remarkable advance of public opinion. During the past 25 years public opinion has advanced to such an extent that it insists that no man has the right to expose to danger, nor to endanger the lives, the happiness or comfort of other persons. Public opinion will sustain the opinion, and individual has the right to keep his afflictions cealed from the general public, to preserve and safeguard them, but at the same time would sustain the greater right of the community to be protected from the infection, also safeguarded and preserved. The social order has no objection to a man making and accumulating large sums of money from the community, money at the expense and to the detriment of the social order. Just so long as one is careful and conducts himself in such a manner as not to expose others to his contagious or infectious disease, society has no interest in invading the sacred precincts of one's home and exposing upon what you have pleased to learn learned better, to term "one's individual rights."

Whenever this paper has an occasion to address itself to the affairs of our people it never fails to strike the proper note. This is not the first time that this great daily has come to the defense of our people in their struggles for a square deal. No doubt the article will be widely read and favorably commented upon. FOR YEARS we have been contending for an opportunity to properly present our cause in the great forum of public opinion, and we are always glad to have such a powerful friend as the Herald-Examiner array itself on the side of right and justice. For the benefit of our readers we herewith reprint the editorial in full: A PLAN WANTED There are at least 80,000 Negroes in Chicago today. The Negro weekly, the Defender, has an average circulation of 125,000. And note the name—The Defender. Defender against what? Against what the colored people of Chicago, rightly or wrongly, regard as the point of view of the average white man, the Defender, has the power to show what he is an American citizen. The defender of the theory that the Negroes are good Americans; that they have among them men of ability and good will to co-operate in fighting the battle for civic progress, as thousands and thousands co-operated in fighting the battles for the safety of the world. The great difficulty in the Negro situation in Chicago is that they have not enough opportunities for co-operation. As separate as the white business man, the Defender, has the greatest passage of his greatest speech, at Atlanta, almost a generation ago, "but one as the hand in all things that make for material, economic and idealistic progress." That was a dream that has not wholly come true. Now the Negro soldier is coming back with a consciousness of power that he has never felt before. He believes in himself as he never did before. And right away he begins to suspect that the white business man, the white laboring man, the white social reformer even, the white business man, the white social reformer even, the White man in politics, however, heinds does care. And so the Negro not naturally ties up with him. One of the things that make a "Chicago Plan" essential is the Negro. It is impossible to put down 80,000 people within the limits of districts that formerly tied 25,000 to 40,000. The Negro has to go somewhere; he has to live in a recreation somewhere. Unless white people make an effort to underdevelop the density by systematic planning, irritation will not diminish, but increase. The great necessity is for a more general realization that the problem exists, and a more general effort to understand what its causes are. There are many regrets now looking for jobs in Chicago who never saw the North after after that. That is because we in the North have talked about equal opportunities and equal rights until we have convinced the Negro that they exist. Now we are bound to find out and state conditions as they actually are. Only so can we make any advance toward honest treatment of men and women who are in the main, like the rest of us, honest citizens.

IT IS A PITY that room is found in our institutions of learning in the South for the trucking, weak-kneed, pale face worshippers, who constantly sell out their own people for the shop-worn mess of pottage. By flattering and appealing to the baser instincts they think to reach the pocketbook of the white man at what cost they seldom stop to consider. We recently had a glaring instance of this from the head of one of our largest and best known institutions. The admonition, coming at this time, to be "meek and humble," aroused anything but a responsive chord, on the contrary, it was the direct cause of thousands taking a slap at the one who dared, in his position, to even suggest such a thing. SINCE THE EXODUS other so-called leaders have come to the fore-all of course, with an ax to grind—and have found the southern press open to their appeals to the "brother" to remain in the South, where the people understand them. If they are connected with a school, no matter how small, they take pains to mention that they teach the women cooking, canning and housework of all kinds, and the men farming in all its branches. The heads "confer frequently with the whites of the section" as to the best, methods of keeping their businesses. AN ORGANIZATION calling itself The Mississippi Rural Association, according to its statement in the Commercial-Appal. "It's trying to keep the Negroes informed as to their duty to the South. Advising them to remain in the South. We have made this a permanent work in rebuttal against these northern papers that are trying to unsettle them." The writer cites that he saw a man that seemed disturbed and, upon inquiring the trouble, was told that the man was going to Chicago where he could get protection. That he saw in a paper where Negroes had better get above the Mason and Dixon line, that he broke loose in the South very soon. The Defender was brought out to substantiate his assertion, but it was discovered that he did not see it just that way. IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY in his day and time that mind and hand should be trained at the same time, but the policy has been to train our youth with the hands only: in other words, make of them simply beasts of the earth, a uneducated man or woman is of little value as compared to the educated, even those employed in the commonest kind of work, and why the South insists on keeping a large portion of its population in ignorance is hard to fathom. It is gratifying to note the gradual and over-increasing development and appreciation of social medicine. Prior to 1854 the physicians were trained in our school of med. legal ethics along divisionalistic lines. In words, the rights of the individual patient counted with the physician everything; the patient's rights as to the sacredness and concealment of the patient's ailments stood far above the rights of those of the community or of the social or development of social medicine the Dr. A. W. Williams modern doctors are taking a more comprehensive and a broader view of the matter. The modern physician feels that the community has certain sacred rights that must be safeguarded and not intrigued upon, the same as his job as a physician. This late day of modern development of social medicine still believe that they have the right and insist that their family physician encourage and protect them in their selfish endeavor to impose upon and expose to the highest degree all members of the community and infections diseases just so long as they themselves (the diseased patients) are protected. Examples—Take for instance, smallpox. A great many people believe that they have the individual right to have smallpox and to keep the fact concealed from the health authorities; and with the physician if he reports the case of smallpox to the health department. They object to going to isolation hospital; they object to being quarantined and object to living up to the rules that have for their aim safety and immunity. This, of course, is due to ignorance, to a lack of mental development of appreciation of one's relation to society and to extreme selfishness on the part of those afflicted. Then, too, the attitude of the former physician is a viewpoint of former patients. This is true of the reporting of various infectious and contagious diseases. Many parents will call the physician aside and say: "Doctor, if my child (or if he or she) has measles, diphtheria, who should I report to?" Please do not report it." These parents fear that the health department will tack up a sign and quarantine the place. These people, notwithstanding the fact that there is a case of contagious or infectious disease in their minisite with other children and care absolutely nothing for the safety and protection of the exposed person or persons. This is largely due to selfishness and ignorance. It was a long time before public opinion could be educated, operated and sustain, the measures in i
