Victims Easily Caught It is declared that white plantation owners have employed what they term "watchers" who attend all trials in the city courts. When a person is brought to trial the "watcher" follows the case carefully, seeking to come to the "sud" of the party in distress. In the event a person is placed on the accused party then the watcher makes an agreement whereby the film is screened, but only after the accused has signed. Additional work on the plantation until the trial is paid back in full. For a one of $100 two years' hard work is required as full payment. In Other States This method of snatching labor in the courts is not only operated in the state of Georgia, but Arkansas, Mississippi and in certain parts of Tennessee the practice has broadened to unlimited proportions. The common practice in Mississippi in forcing labor in a manhunt on plantations and work under a common system is the most outrageous. The manhunt is ported and while en route to the plantation is furnished with sandwiches. When the destination is reached he discovers that his wage is usually changed to another figure; always about $10 lower than the price offered to another figure; the contract is signed. Refusal to work is kept in the charge that he has "skipped" his board bill. The board bill in question is the sandwiches given the laborer on the train.

"The further unfortunate circumstance of death claiming my accuser before any legal tribunal could pass upon my guilt or imminent death, impelled by a sense of justice to my brother members of the police department, who indirectly must suffer from projudged sentiment against me. I am asking him to stop the police time will efface the wrong done from charges preferred by one, whom I regret, death prevents me facing either in a court on before the civil service commission."

By act of congress these laws are enforceable in the district court of the United States. Whoever may be injured or aggrieved by the attack to the district attorney or the federal grand jury for redress, also they may proceed by civil process in the federal courts, recovering damages in law and equity.

Supreme Court, in case Hurttman, 49 Federal Reports, 181." After commenting extensively on the danger of emotionalism and of bombthrowing, the Real Estate News further stated: "In Kenwood and Hyde Park particularly a number of protective associations have been formed. Property owners have been urged to attempt at concealment, without attempt at concealment, advice against it against all persons of a certain Race. At a meeting of these groups there has been open advocacy of violence. There has been incoordial talk, bombs and bullets have been discussed, and speakers talking this have been repeated acts of violence, night bombing of Negro homes and apartments has taken place. "The time has come, we believe, for a word of solum warning to all South Sida property owners. It is: Keep out of those associations!

Every act of such an association for advancement of such an aim is an act of conspiracy, punishably criminally and civilly in the district court of the United States. And every member of such an association is equally guilty with every other member. Commits murder in pursuance of the association, all in the organization must be found guilty, of conspiracy to destroy property or to commit murder, as the case may be. Law Stated .. "These cold facts of the law are stated to make clear what a desparate and dangerous enterprise is being put afloat in the effort to prevent race incitement by racism or intimidation. Every property of itigon in Chicago is affected, for under the law all property in the city may be taxed to pay huge damages which may result from riots likely to onusio as a result from such conspiratorial. The attention of the people who have been affected by these violations will do well to call the attention in a judicial manner to that branch of the federal court presided over by Judge J. B. H. that no doubt find that if the law is an unjustified that he will see to it that justice will be moted out to the conspirators.

JAPS CROWD HAWAII Washington, March 6—The Japanese population of Hawaii has been increased from a handful 30 years ago to 120,000 persons, Gov. Charles J. McCarthy of the territory told the senate immigration committee. He asked that congress co-operate in increasing the alien population of the island, declaring that orientals constitute more than 50 per cent of the total. They are still arriving in Hawaii in large numbers, the governor said, and he did not see any particular evil in the system. He added there was a very high risk of hate. There is a growing feeling of alienation among the American and native residents of the island, he declared, against the rapid acquisition of public land by the Japanese. MRS. E. O.

CATCHING COLD? CATCHING COLD? MINTOL OFTEN PREVENTS PNEUMONIA It is surprising to read in the daily papers of treatments that our forfathers and grandmothers used for that condition, colds, catarrh, and the fact that modern scientific research had not advanced labs, when, as a matter of fact, we had the treatment of all diseases and conditions that bring on disease. Just because grandmothers have relieved colds and congested conditions it is same reason why we should request to the old ones to have wonderful improvements and new discoveries of medicines which are far more effective and less SPECIAL NOTICE:—A druggist said the other day that a customer came into his store and in quiffed for a mustard plaster and he suggested to the customer that they try MINTOL, as a more modern treatment for congested conditions. The customer accepted the druggist's suggestion, and to twenty-four hours the same customer came into the drug store and said "How long have you handled MINTOL?" The druggist replied that he had been handling it for some little time and the customer frankly stated that he would never use a mustard cream or plaster for colde, coughs, or any corrected conditions again. There are thousands of others who would say the same as their druggist's customer old if they would only try MINTOL.

Magill Assemblyman John Clifford Hawkins is fourth on our list of those who opinions were sought on Racegressman. Hawkins, who by the way is a real self-made man, having fought the battles of life all the way up, was rather conservative in his remarks. He said, however, that in his opinion we should have a man of our Race to represent us in Washington, though he had not surveyed the situation sufficiently as yet to pass on the chances of electing such a man. Asked if he bought a Republican would win much support, Hawkins said that Race, Hawkins said that was a problem that no one could solve. At this point the assemblyman who has twice bought a Republican represent the 21st assembly district, and has been unilinber. He said the movement looking towards the election of a man of our Race to congress from the 21st assembly ticket to the 21st Republican ticket to be a good one, continued Hawkins, "I can say from experience that if such a man wins in the primaries he can safely count on the Republican machine." He said that the present representative really was a good man, and that he was rated as an amusing, but, concluded the assemblyman, the publician is better than any kind of a Democrat, and I refuse to classify that sentiment as self-imposed segregation, the man becomes the jury's candidate, I hope one wins."

New things are springing into existence with every tick of the clock, and the old are passing, so to speak, with equal rapidity. A great industrial wave is sweeping the country, destined to bring about new relations between the white and Colored people. The reconstruction is making rapid changes along professional, business, industrial, social and religious lines. Some of the professions are being deserted while men and women are answering the more alluring calls of other vocations. Capital and labor are at each other's throats in what seems to be a deadly grip. Social and religious activities of the past have not met the present needs, while the business world has taken impetus from its inherent strength. As in all reconstruction periods, there are the dangers that opportunities to set the hands forward will be allowed to slip. In the minds of every man and woman awake to the force of the reconstruction, there is a feeling that somehow he or she must "move up" a step higher. Nobody is satisfied to remain at the same old post for the same compensation, at least no one of the newly awakened. For the Colored people the danger is going to be that as a Race we shall fail to seize many of the opportunities to "move up." It goes without saying that many have caught the vision of the new day, but not sufficient numbers. Partly as a result of restricted immigration and the general labor shortage resulting from the war, and partly because of the newly awakened social consciousness on the part of a few employers, it appears that the Colored Race is about to catch a glimpse of the wider opportunities in the industrial world. Colored men and women are filling positions today that were unthought of before the world war, and every day sees new openings along yet other lines. Whether the Race realizes it or not, as a possible factor of the labor market it is on trial. When the pendulum begins to swing back in the industrial field, when the demands for labor can be met largely by white laborers and foreigners, capital will be forced to choose from the available market. The big question in the minds of many is whether the choice will be based on the Color of the workmen or on the efficiency of the services rendered. It is to be hoped, on the latter. Colored men and women occupying places newly opened --- --- CAN SHE BE DEAD WHOSE SOUL STILL BREATHES; 'THO CASKET'S HID 'NEATH WITHERED WREATHS, WITH MORTAL FORM ENCASED THEREIN, WHERE SOON IT MUST BE INCH BY INCH RETURNED TO DUST, WITHOUT ALARM? CAN SHE BE DEAD WHOSE WORKS STILL LIVE ON EARTH, IN FUTURE YEARS TO GIVE TO THOSE WHO PRIDE SWEET THOUGHTS OF HER WHOSE SELF-MADE STAR MOUNTED ITS ZENITH IN THE SKY, TOO FAR, ITS LIGHT TO HIDE? CAN SHE BE DEAD, WHOSE MEMORY'S STAMPED ON MILLION HEARTS, WITH SORROWS CRAMPED, WHILE THOUGHTS OF LOVE ASCEND BEYOND THAT BRILLIANT STAR TO HER WITHIN THE GATES AJAR, THE HOME ABOVE? THE CHICAGO DEFENDER UTY THOU DAM WA ewer Opportu to Colored labor should fill them so well that other Colored persons can fill them as vacancies occur. The men and women in these new positions are in reality "samples" of the Colored labor supply, and, going on the principle that the sample is just a little superior to the actual supply, it is all the more necessary that these men and women hold their own with credit. According to reports from employers of Colored labor, one feels a certain safety in predicting the employment of Colored people in continually larger fields. While the bulk of labor is taking a step upward, as is being done in all other fields, the fact should not be lost sight of that present day conditions are making it possible for the Race to create new opportunities for itself. During the last few years especially we as a Race have learned a little about co-operation, and we are going to learn more about it in the next five years; we are going to learn that racial co-operation spells business opportunities for the boys and girls coming out of the schools each year, and for the men and women who have been compelled to fill positions that are not commensurate with their ability and training. A visit to the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company in Indianapolis is surely an inspiration to the Race, and more especially to the parents who are eternally beset with the question, "What is my boy or girl to do when out of school?" It is indeed a privilege to look in upon the force of stenographers, typists, bookkeepers, shipping clerks, mailing clerks, foremen and heads of departments, clear cut, business-like and awake to their possibilities for advancement. It is only a meager evidence of what can be accomplished when members of the Race turn their own earnings into their own coffers. The same is true of many large business concerns in this country owned and operated by Colored people. The time is not far distant when hundreds of such concerns will spring up over the land, for the Race is surely learning to stick together. This is a great day of achievement. Everywhere men and women are eager to do something. Not only are they anxious to do, but they are reaching out along new lines, and the Colored people would do well to catch the cue. There are all too many duplications in the business world, if such they can be called. Where a few good concerns might flourish, a large number barely eke out an existence. It is true that time will weed out the unfit, but in the weeding process the wheat often goes with the tares. Many persons of keen business insight --- CAN SHE BE DEAD WHO NE'ER FORGOT THE SORROWS THAT WERE FREEDMEN'S LOT, AND STROVE TO LIFT THE BURDENS THAT HELD THEM ENTWINED, THE OBSTACLES THAT MADE THEM BLIND TO FREEDOM'S GIFT? CAN SHE BE DEAD WHOSE MANTLE FELL ON THOSE SO NEAR WHO NOW CAN TELL WITH MIGHTY PEN THE "THOUGHTS OF BEAUTY" SHE DID HOLD WERE NAUGHT WITH HER, IF NOT TWO-FOLD-WITHOUT-WITHIN? SHE IS NOT DEAD. THEY CAN NOT DIE WHO THROUGH SUCH NOBLE EFFORTS TRY THE PRIZE TO WIN. 'THO MORTAL FORM'S 'NEATH WITHERED WREATHS, THAT "BEAUTY THOUGHT" HER SOUL STILL BREATHES, WITHOUT-WITHIN. By SERGT. ALLEN R. GRIGGS JR., Author of the "Negro's Tribute to Roosevelt," "Are They Equal in the Eyes of the Law," and other poems. CAN NOT DIE DUBLE EFFORTS TRY DEATH WITHERED "HER SOUL STILL nities have made failures simply because numerous concerns of the same kind have divided trade. How many people rush headlong into a business venture for no other reason than the fact that some one else has made good, or is about to make good, in that particular line! To be more exact, there are too many businesses of the same kind among the Colored people. The business world needs more men and women of the pioneer type, men and women of vision, courage and initiative, willing to blaze new trails. Instead of half a dozen grocery stores in half a dozen blocks, why not a garment factory or a dairy, or a laundry, or other business? It is admitted that this is a free country and that all men have a perfect right to enter any field desired, but there is a certain business sense that we want to exercise. There is plenty of room without crowding any particular field to the extent that the Colored people themselves are too much divided to support any one decently. Because one man enters the ministry, that does not argue that all men should preach the gospel. Because somebody organizes a welfare club, that is no reason why three or four should be organized to follow the same identical lines. Imitation is not a bad attribute, but when applied to the detriment of the Race it is regrettable. Too many members of the Race feel called upon to play the "dog in the manger" role, and it seems high time to think. Every opportunity is accompanied by grave responsibilities and the responsibilities of the present are the gravest. The races are being employed side by side. The Colored people have no apologies to make for being thus situated. It's a great time for holding up the heads and looking the world in the face, so to speak. Then, it is a great time to get along on friendly terms with those you work with. When Colored women and girls began to receive clerical positions in the stores, shops, factories and in the offices of state and county officials in many parts of the country, they met with no cordial greetings from their white sisters at first, but reports show now that in many instances they sit about their tables in the offices and eat their lunches together, enjoy a friendly social chat, and everything goes smoothly. It is a wonderful opportunity to convince members of other races that we are capable, that we know our business, that we have aspirations and longings to be, that we can be efficient in any field of endeavor, that we are arriving. FRANCES BERRY COSTON. PAGE 8EVEN ```markdown ``` "The Other Woman" at Avenue "Hello 1919" Last Week Now On PAGE EIGHT The eternal triangle of love, which shatters the marital lives of many men and women, is "differently" presented in the present week's offering at the Avenue Theater. It is the usual custom to paint the woman in the case in as black as possible; her character must never be reputable and her intentions must always be evil. In "The Other Woman," however, the author makes Eleanor Gates, who is the third angle in the triangle of the love affair of James and May Harrington, a good woman of in the present week's offering at Avon Theater. It is the usual custom to paint the woman in the case in as black a style as possible; her character must be subtle and her intentions must always be evil. In "The Other Woman," however, the author makes Eleanor Gates, who is the third angle in the love affair of James and May Harrington, a good woman of unblemished character, with a love for her, arriving, the man in the case, and incidentally the husband of the puro and noble Mrs. Harrington. The early destination of the Harringtons is imminent. The husband falls in love with Eleanor Gates, a widow and an artist, and succeeds from his wife. Between the man and the other woman real bonds of love are forged until they arrive at a point where the issue of divorce must be met fairly and squarely. The wife wants to win back her husband's love, but she receives to present him with a heartfelt dead boy on the anniversary of his birth. Through a trick of Fate she comes to the studio of Eleanor and engages her to do the work. Neither woman knows the identity of the other. When that knowledge does come to her, she realizes a real battle of hearts and wits ensues for the love of the man. In the end, "The Other Woman" gives up her love, but at the cost of a broken heart. The wife retains her husband, but with the knowledge that he loves another, she realizes that hearts are broken that one might be happy. It is indeed an interesting play. Evelyn Ellis is cast as Eleanor Gates and she does splendidly in the part. In the hour of her final sacrifice she demonstrates that she has a world of friends, opposite, as Mrs. Harrington, in Carolotta Freeman, who, as usual, stands out with her remarkable work. Miss Freeman is consistent and has the faculty of getting all out of a portrayal that it contains. Charles Clough is the husband of the writer, the weaknesses of Harrington are well brought out and the portrayal is far above criticism. Inez Clough is perfect as Mrs. Varnum and friend of the family and Freddy H. Brown an Dorothy H. Bosen Lee Teyler plays the part of the servant, Kate, in her usual capable way, and completes the cast. THE GRAND "Hello 1919" is playing the final week at the Grand Theater and is packing them in as usual. It is a wonderful thing—this packing them in for four weeks—but what it takes to pull it the JINES "CUTS UP" Comedian Adds a Little Tragedy to His Regular Comedy The following is from n. Louisville, Ky., daily, and expo. lusci. "Wild rage surged in the heart of Henry Jones, 'Irones' in Harvey's Colored Minstrels as he cracked jokes beneath a smiling demeanor at the Jefferson theater last night. The pulchritude of his comedy wife, Irene Jones, 29 years old, had aroused the admiration of other men. Irene is one of the most famous actors in "Irones' store." He started an argument when he reproached Irene at their boarding house, $21 West Walnut street, after the performance. As is usual in such cases, he was running a bad second when he whipped out his trusty razor and went to work. He was whitling a syncopated ragtime melody on Irene's arms and back to the accustomed rhythm, when other roomers interfered. Henry backed from the house with his blade hold in a posture of defense. "Irene was sent to the City hospital, where it is stated that she will recover, although she is badly cut. The minstrels will have an understudy in Henry's place this afternoon for, if he appears, he will be 'nabbed by the police.'" LULU COATES & CO. Jersey City, N. J., March 5—Lulah Contez & Crackerjack, one of the strongest acts in the show business, are literally "cleaning up" as a feature with the Hurtig & Sennon "Social Mudls" Co., playing the present week at the Majestic Theater here. The act has many new features and was never more active and effectual at a present. The dashing Miss Contez and her "boys" are practically the whole show, as they do more real work in their allotted 12 minutes than is contained in either half of the principal attraction. ...THE...

She has several new songs as well as a couple of the old ones, and her work appears along the line. Mason & English, a real jazz cabaret turn, are going over in the shape. The act is full of pop and there are no idle moments. The idahoes, a singing, tulling and dancing pair, are hitting them a rap with their offering, and the big time act of Simms & Warfield, seen here for the first time in years, completes the bill. A real riot and the patterns of the Monsieur are in having a chance to see the old cabridan and his dashing partner. Some bill. THE EARL A good bill is being presented here this week, there being several novel features. The "piece de resistance" is the team of Tim and Gertie Moore, and their work is creating a real sensation. The pictures are changed every night and the vaudeville twice a week. Tim and Gertie are here for the full week. "DO THE DEAD TALK?" "DO THE DEAD TALK?" --- An American mother, whose son had fallen fighting for democracy on the fields in Flanders, was startled to see her son appear before her as in life in the half-dark parlor of a friend's home. She rubbed her eyes; she thought she was dreaming. Imagine her gratification when the boy spoke, called her by his pet name, and held out his arms to her. The good boy forward and fell into his embrace, railing for him. Then the lad spoke: "Do not mourn for me, mother, I am always with you. My soldier comrades here have asked me to give you a message to other mothers whose sons have fallen. Say to them, as I say to you: 'We want you to be happy here!' The mother drew her eyes look into the eyes of her boy, wondering at what he had said, when his form molted in her arms and faded from view. Wondering, puzzled, and yet radially happy, the mother staggered to a chair. Her dear boy had fallen from the chair and spoken to her! This is one of the impressive scenes in Jack MacCoulough's thrilling film feature, "Do the Dead Talk?" now holding the screen at the States theater, ending Saturday. Al Wells, the famous trapeze artifice, is now manager of the C. W. Parks Smart Set Co., and will open the season somewhere in Georgia in two weeks. It is a tent show and will be held at the North Carolina Amphitheater the South. Mall will read Al if dressed to Grand theater, Beaulie street, Memphis, Tenn. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER "HIGH SPEED" "HIGH SPEED" "High Speed," screen vision of Clinton H. Stagg's famous automobile racing story of the same title, has been timed by Hallmark Pictures Corporation under the direction of Charles Miller for the series of Famous Directors' Pictures. It will be seen Sunday at the States theater, and if approval can be taken as criterion, "High Speed" is due to play to capacity business at this house. From the opening of the story to the final finale there is action every minute, for the story held around the famous automobile races held around at Santa Monica, Cal., and Sheepshead Bay, New York, where the action racing scenes were "shot." During the race, the races is seen a thrilling accident, the two cars are almost entirely demolished Gladys Hullette, the little star whom the patrons will remember as star of *Pat and Phanhauser productions*, and Ed Kidder, who will be remembered as leading man of many of Vitagraph's productions of O. Henry stories, are co-starred in the picture, with a supporting cast included: Lennon, Letton, Charles Husted, Pay Elyon, Horton, Jack Edwards and Matthew L. Betts, all popular actors. "High Speed" is an unusual picture in that its action is laid exclusively around the double races. It is one of the best pictures the writer has seen for some time. 'THE MARRIAGE QUESTION' Billie was young and had utterly no conception of the seriousness of a matrimonial adventure, but her aunt was of the mercenary type, and, realizing the marketable value of her pretty piece, she placed her on the nurethock, holding her out for the highest bidder. A long camp James Cantwalt Hudson had lodged and wealthy, and the hammer of the auctioneer descended on the head of little Billie while the raucous voice of the auctioneer cried "sold." Then the trouble began, for Billie was trying a venture about which she knew nothing she didn't even know whether she looked at her, or Jackley, the husband loved the little girl, who didn't know the first principles about being a wife, and humored her. Unluckily, the girl wife moved into society, and it went to her head, as she became the butterfly of the social whirl, stirring indiscriminately to keep up her interest in things and in life. For her husband, whom she had made a stranger since their marriage, began to devote more and more time to his business interests and less to his wife and the wife began to devote more and more of her time to one Jay Langdon, formerly the poor, now rich, and society began to be NYCally, the husband was the last to hear this gossip, but when he did—then came the inevitable scene and the sky fell in on Billie. Luckily, Billie was innocent of everything save indiscretion and she had at last realized that she loved her husband truly, and nothing else mattered, but it was too late, for the husband was hurt and doubled his wife and an establishment fellow. Billie opened a model dairy farm with the aid of a sum of money provided by her husband's lawyers, and with her aunt, sister, sister's sweetheart and the family butler as partners, made quite a success of the business. Then James Cantwell Hudson Jr. arrived and the man and waken into the firm, and the business showed up on the scene quite unexpectedly for all parties, and Billie solved the marriage question for all concerned. The comedy lines are furnished by Teddy Somers, Billie's husband's secretary, who is mainly in love with Marilyn, the butler, and Fanks, the butler, who regards himself as a member of the family. All in all, "The Marriage Question," which is the final bill in the repertoire of the present company of Lafayette Players at the Avenue, is a cure for the blues and answers the "if" in life.

But it is not always the ense that writers get just the true story that we believe exists among the public of ring—the companionship, the spirit of comradeship, the customs and the life, so far apart from other people yet, when known and liked, loved, the same folks as those who make up the rest of the world. "This is the circus people. I am sure is more truthfully and politically described by Pearl Doles Bell in her splendid story, "Her Elephant Man," than in any other story I know of. She knows circus people and she has made them human, loving and loved, and has given the atmosphere about them a charm that draws all nearer to the stars." Charles Ringling, famous brother of the famous John, says: "Circus people like to be understood, They are human, with all the weaknesses and attributes of other folks. They are not easily understood to be understood. In her Elephant Man the authoress, Pearl Doles Bell, shows an understanding of circus people and has told a love story of interest and charm. It will please circus people who are interested in circus up for ridicule, but instead depicts that they really are—loyal, loving, living in a world of their own, yet greatly interested in all the world about them. This authoress traveled and lived with the circus and caught the atmosphere, which she has deftly put into a fine story. "Her Elephant Man" is coming to the Owl Theater on Sunday.

SATURDAY, MARCH 6, 1920 "IN OLD KENTUCKY" An actual horse race, with all its thrills, is shown in the First National special feature, "In Old Kentucky," great American classic, presented Anika Glowert. This picture will be screeched at the Vendome Theater on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week. It is the great Kontucky handicap race, and you see it from start to finish. There is shown the gigantic stands, in which thousands upon thousands, are crowded, all cheering wildly for their favors. You get a flash of the stables where the jockeys are rubbing their mounts in preparation for the great event, and then the jockeys coming one by one onto the track to be greeted by cheers by the spectators. Miss Stewart come on the track at the last minute dressed as a jockey, to ride for one of the jockeys who has been drugged in order to frame the race. Then comes the call for the start from the judge's stand and a score of the race are off in the great race. The coworkers practically from the start to the finish are on forges ahead and another drops gradually behind. Miss Stewart, who is an expert horsewoman, rides in a mud gallop, at first far behind, but gradually work up, until at the end she goes under the wire a nose ahead, wigning the race. There is all the wild enthusiasm of the most exciting race, and it grips with the same dramatic intensity those who watch the picture. THEY ALL LAUGHED Handy's Memphis Blues band has been playing to crowded houses in western Pennsylvania during the past two weeks. Harry H. Pace, president of the Pace and Handy Music Company, Broadway, who has recently come to New York to perform of that business, ran over to Pittsburgh on business for the publishing house and to hear the band play. He came into the hall just as they were rendering Mr. Handy's wonderful number, "The Yellow Dog Blues," in which the musicians laugh, followed by the famous trombone laugh. The number was a scream. The musicians laugh, followed by the audience laugh. The loudest laugh of all, however, came from Mr. Pace, who had just entered the hall. The audience was greatly amused, but did not understand. When Mr. Pace explained to Mr. Handy that the New York office had just received information that the sales of the records of Yellow Dog Blues" had run over half a million dollars, the audience laughed. He also smiled happily when told that the sales of the sheet music were breaking all the previous records of the house. Irene Thomas, the popular entertainer who has just returned from a long engagement at the Japanese Inn, Norfolk, Va., was a caller at the Old Roll Top Desk on Monday.

JONES AND HIS SELECT ORCHESTRA DAILY, 6 P. M. TO MIDNIGHT LAST SHOW STARTS AT 10:30 P. M. MOST POPULAR THEATRE ON THE SOUTH SIDE THE TRIP The natives of Chicago and vicious were placed in a very awkward position by the unexpected trip East made by the Old Roll Top Desk Man. The fact that he gave no warning that he would be bowed harder to bear. There is no wonder that the theaters all threatened to close, that many flat buildings ran out of coal, that the temperature dropped to two or three blocks below 47th street and that the price of less than the per cent cost climbed clear over the top of the Stores Theater. Tony was gone, so the whole town was lost. Effect East The unheralded sit in New York and Philly also had its effect. The storms and blizzards of the past few weeks had jummed and Jimmed the snow made the big growth of snow that made one of George Porter's M. Sundays. Snow on the right, snow on the left, snow up and down the middle and occasionally snow on the bottom—but not often. The mayor of the Pennsylvanian poloized to the Old Roll Top Desk man as he reached for his pork-chop. "You haven't been gone long," soz 'e, "Sorry to see you back again." That is the usual greeting for the westerner in the town of Gotham. No solution of the idea has ever been offered. We have never been able to fathom whether it is passed out in a spirit of jeansy or if it is a matter of the Harlemite being ashamed of being found habitating in the big overstreet of New York, as Andrew Bishop would say. I was the other there was no way of getting rid of me; there was only one way for them to plant me where I would be "hid." So they took me to the Y. M. C. A., where Frank Young is the Beau Brummol and Oscar Micheaux the Braithy Bowers among the ostracized. We registered and then hied away to the quoit precincts of Charley Thorpe's exhambles, where the flowing bowl has been filled with Whistle" and the Jazz Band is Charles' own and only Saxaphone, pure and simple—mostly the latter. Tea Party Ever live through a "Tea Party"? Well, many of the a. adors will remember Scott Joplin; Mrs. Scott Joplin is living at 163 W. 131st street and all the performers of the past days make it their "home." At the afternoon tea, involuntarily given by the handsome Claudio Pemberton, were Marion Lavantore, soprano; Alice E. Smith of Newberg; Julia Brown, New York; Claudio Pemberton, of New London, Conn.; Charles Henry Osborne, Tousoral King; Walter Thomas, Mayor of 131st street; Oliver Sanford, globe trottor, and the beautiful hostess, Mrs. Scott Joplin. Some party. The remarkable part of these affairs is the fact that nothing to eat is over served. It is a matter of "cold tea" pure and unadulterated, if you'll believe what you hear. Pete Hogan Pete Hogan, the man who has made 7th avenue famous and the man who can do more with a pot than the ordinary gazebo can do with a $100 bill, had the Old Roll Top Man to dinner more than once, when the trip to Philly, when John T. Gibson is the actual and only legitimate "noise", and where we ran across Jim Burris, Billy Cumby and the bunch, after having paid our respects to Jr. Gibson. We had dinner with the latter in the Philly restaurant, and Philly we met J. Louis Johnson, one of the reasons for the Old Time Darkies Quartette. We visited the C. V. B. A. and saw the mob. The only thing we missed was our chance to meet Billy E. Jones. He is the most claustro son-of-a-n gun in New York without a handshake from him and we will be thinking that he is ducking us. There was Bishop, Criner, Cleo and all the rest of the "Players," including Forrest, the big noise, and Lester, King of the Leo. The Tall great us. Our Lew Peyton and Black Cark wore on the job (as long as the prescription lasted), and Charley Gilpin even found us, but no Billy E. Jones showed. Oh, Billy, where were you? "Ko" special—the Century—so we came home on the best train in the world. The Broadway. Some trip. SMARTER SET Reports coming in from the firing line indicate that the Smurter Set Co., with Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, is mopping, cleaning and calming all along the line.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER g, Soft, Glossy Best Desire of Eve Hair is Short, Coarse a Price 25¢ per can Plough's BLACK AND WHITE HAIR DRESSING For dandruff, falling hair, and scalp trouble. TRADE MARK REGISTERED Prepared by PLOUGH CHEMICAL COMPANY MEMPHIS, TENN. Beautiful, Long, Soft, Glossy, Wavy Hair The Greatest Desire of Every Woman Whose Hair is Short, Coarse and Wiry Most of a woman's attractiveness depends on her hair. She may have a lovely complexion, her clothes becomingly tailored, but without pretty, soft, glossy, wavy hair, she would lack that charm so much desired. First wash the hair thoroughly with a good soap or shampoo. (There is nothing better than Black and White Soap.) Then apply Black and White Hair Dressing in little pieces night and morning, rubbing well into the scalp. Brush the hair thoroughly, several times a day, if possible. Wash the hair again in one week. The regular and continued use of Black aand White Hair Dressing will so improve your hair that you will be proud of the day you bought your first package. You will be more attractive, popular in social life, successful in business--you will be admired by everybody, if you will care for your hair properly so as to make it grow longer, softer and dress it to become your style of beauty. HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE YOUR HAIR. If your hair is dry, wiry and coarse, it is necessary to use a treatment that will feed the roots of the hair. Dandruff will cause your hair to become dry, wiry and brittle and soon fall out. and a preparation that will also relieve this scalp trouble is very important. While the creamy lather of a cake of Black and White Soap is superior for relieving dandruff and cleansing the scalp and hair, some people prefer a liquid shampoo. You can make your own shampoo by shaving a quarter of a cake of Black and White Soap and dissolving in a pint of boiling water. When cool it is ready for use. This pint of liquid soap costs but little and lasts for a long time. Get a bar of Black and White Soap and try it. The proper washing of the hair and scalp must be given every care and a pure medicated Soap or Shampoo used once a week. Black and White Hair Dressing is a new white preparation composed of the purest and best ingredients known by specialists to relieve dandruff and make the hair grow soft and glossy. Some time was spent in testing the merits of this new hair dressing, and the manufacturers believe that they now have the best preparation on the market. Certainly there is no dressing just like Black and White for hair troubles. Black and White Hair Dressing can be bought at any good drug store, but if your local dealer will not supply you with this new white hair preparation, bearing the Black and White Label, accept no substitutes—send the Plough Chemical Co., Memphis, Tenn., 50c for a package of the Hair Dressing and a bar of Black and White Soap, or,3 packages Black and White Hair Dressing and 2 bars of Black and White Soap will be sent you postpaid, for $1.00.

THE BEST HAIR DRESSING HOW TO USE BLACK AND WHITE HAIR DRESSING HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN SHAMPOO. --- SOUTHERN BASEBALL LEAGUE IS FORMED Ten Cities Are Represented at the Meeting; Circuit Is to Join the National League in 1921 --- Atlanta, Ga., March $^1$—Giving inspiration from the National Western Baseball Circuit, recently organized at Kansas City, Ma, with "Robe" Foster as acting president and secretary, a baseball meeting was held here March 2 for the purpose of organizing a Southern Circuit. The following cities were represented: Nashville, Birmingham, Knoxville, Chattanooga, Greenville, S.C. Atlanta, Jacksonville, Montgomery, Pensacola and New Orleans. Among the baseball players in attendance are W. M. Brooks and Monroe D. Young, of Knoxville; Mal Carter and Henry Brinson, of Chattanooga; J. W. White and Marshall Garrott, of Nashville; Dr. O. M. Thompson and J. R. Kennedy, of Greenville; F. M. Purdue and I. L. Barbar, of Birmingham; Henry Hannon, of Montgomery; Godfrey Williams, of Jacksonville, and Fred Caulfield, of New Orleans, and W. J. Shaw. The organization of this league has the support of the leading men in the Southern League. The plan is for this league to work in conjunction with the Southern League (white), the games being scheduled in a town where there EASTERN SPORTING WORLD BY WHITE Where is Ivan Johnson? According to press dispatches, etc., you would take it or granted that Jon Johnson, ex-heavyweight champion, was somewhere on the briny deep headed for little old New York. Maybe he is. Listen to this piece of news received by me last week, Jan. 28, 1920, by John B. Tibbs, a popular Brooklynite from Thomas Smith, also a Brooklynite. It is postmarked Verringio Gummifabricn Wimpassing in Schwarzaal, Austria, and reads as follows, the part that interests the sporting editor: "was never more popular than 1910." It tended a "center in Vienna last night and located my old friend Jack Johnson from the states, who was playing on the bill with his wife. They do a singing and dancing act, and besides Jack punches the bag, etc. I gave him a Chicago Defender I had, November 1910." This tickled in his life." This bit of information is not surprising, and yours truly has the letter on file. This somewhat relieves the situation until something turns up that Jack is on his way here to give himself up, and do one year at Leavenworth, he don't know. I will receive the famous letter, but will say, Jack has some press agent in Mexico City. Johnny Johnson Columbia Idol When Columbia Bluo and White basket ball team met Yale on Feb. 18 at New Haven, Conn., in their annual clash in the intercollegiate league race, which they lost by one point, the paranoid Johnson, who, by the way, is a bona fide member of the Alpha P. C. C., and who a few years ago led the famous Kewpie team. Johnson, more so this year than ever before, has won the years of this teammate's fair play in this particular game, playing in this particular game, Johnny led both Old Ell and his teammates with two goals from the floor. The Columbia cheering squad have the name Johnson down pretty well by this time. About James A. Kelly Few people know about James A. Kelly. Well, he lives in the nation's capital, Washington, D. C., and is manager-in-chief of the Capital City Giants, a strong semi-pro baseball team. This item is just a foreword, and he will know it getting in his work, 90 in the shade, ete, and the baseball bugs catching the now and now on the Capital City Giants, you will know of James A. Kelly. Boxing in Armories Probable According to last Wednesday's Sun and Herald, 12-round bouts to be staged in state armories are probable. Senator James J. Walker made this amendment to his own bill. According to Senator Alvah M. Burlingame of the judiciary committee, of which he is chairman, it was his belief the committee would vote this week to report favorably to the senate on same permitting the bouts. It was also learned that Senators Matinggame and Walker hold a special session of the amendment changing from 17 to 18 years the age of young men who would be permitted to box. This means if the bill is actually passed we can expect regular bouts at the 15th Regiment Baseball Senior Soccer at the 15th street. If the bill is a regular bill we want mixed bouts. The Defender will not indorse any Jim Crow proposition. The sporting editor recently sent a letter to Senator Walker asking for exploitation as an indication of the situation clearly, but up to the present time no response has been received. Liberty Stars in the Field Philadelphia, Pa., March 5.—The original Liberty Star will again put a strong traveling team in the field for the coming season. Manzor Williams has already signed all last year men, which included James, Valentine, Morris, Weeks, Goodwin, Iulfielders; Rowsey, Jones, Arthur, outholders; White and Muse, catchers; Cannonball Smith, Adams and Gargett, pitchers. The club hopes to meet with even better success than last year, when it won 28 out of 39 games played, scoring victories over the best clubs in this section. Geo. Thompson Finished Third New York, N. Y., March 5.—Running in the five mile handicap of the Harlem Heights League last Sunday afternoon Geo. Thompson of the St. Christopher club finished third, being 50 yards for second place. The race was held under the auspices of the Glencoo A. C. and was won by H. Rosen of that club. Thompson received a handicap of 30 seconds. KNICKERBOCKER TAILORING CO. Dept. 680 Chicago, Ill Support of White League About James A. Kelly la is Southern League team only on the road when the white teams are on the road. There is talk of having "Rube" Foster, Dave Wyatt and Cary B. Lowis of the Chicago Defender, come here and who Chicago Defender, come here and help make it a big success to start. It is likely that the Seattle Seahawks in the near future become a part of the National Negro Baseball League, which "Rube" Foster has in mind 1921, who represented the local team, star player, defensive reporter that he expected "to be a big financial success. That the Defender would be a big factor in making it a 'go.' Other meetings will be even high. All of the baseball magazine who attended and great praise for the sport page of the Chicago Defender. BASEBALL STARTS IN THE SUNNY SOUTH New Orleans, La., March 5—Playing at Helmanan's (Southern League) park, the Leland Giants defeated the Caulfield "Ads" cratilw city Negro champs, in a brilliantly played game here last week.

"Y" VICTORIOUS Cincinnati, Ohio, March 5—Saturday, Feb. 14, the unarmed and white of the 9th St. Branch "Y" booked up with the fast aggregation from Springfield on the local's floor. Cincinnati was represented by a large throng of cheering rooters. Springfield, although its usual and its ranks being somewhat daunting, was of an independent organization played a fast, clean game. The combat was very exciting and the rivalry was pitched high, the affair being nip and tuck throughout. At the end of the first half the visiting quintet was in the first half by points and things looked very serious for the playing of Noel and Heath of Springfield featured the first half. Huston was substituted for Noel in the second half. Woodson and Huston played admirably. The score was 24 and 24 at the second half. Extra time was allowed for the history for 9th St. by a score of 32 to 24 and the feature was instilled. After the game an Intra "Y" Track Moot took place. Anderson won the $30 yards, time 2:27 3-5. LittleJohn winning the mile 7-07. A fast relay concluded the game. The records were remarkable considering the track and the participants' unfamiliarity with inside conditions. SCHOLASTICS LOSE Indianapolis, Ind., March 5—The Indianapolis "Y" basketball shooters last night turned back the crack Scholastics of Pittsburgh to the tune of 34 to 14. The team was one of the most hair-raising games in the local court, the light, fast Pittsburgh boys getting away with a lead before the Hoosier machine could get warmed up. It was not until the first half it only over that the Fighting Five could even score, the first whistle blew, the invaders had a 1-point lead, Score, 12 to 11. In the final session the home guards got together and by good passing and "dead-eye" shooting opened up a wide lead on the Penn State boys. Hazzard, dead head on the Penn State boys, down the house with good strength in burg, Capt. Johnson led in the point making, while the work of Meshan and Catlin on defense was marked. The five-man defense of the locals held the visitors to a single field goal, a haskay half, a field goals-Hazzard, a haskay half, a Robinson, 3 Bybee, D; Dangiered, 1; Johnson, 1; Catlin, 1; Meshan.

Referees—Hayes, Upate LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL WINS A CLOSE GAME Kansas City, Mo., March 5. — The long winning streak of the Kansas Industrial and Educational Institute athletic teams which had its beginning late in the oothbush season checked today when the plucky basketball girls from Topeka lost to Lincoln High School. Poor officiating took much of the interest from the game and did much to slow up the Topeka team, which suffered most baskets in the Lunsford, who played a sensational defensive game against Western University the preceding Friday without committing a single foul, was penalized twice early in the first half, after Miss Erna Parker, Lincoln's shitty little forward, who then caged two field goals before the half ended. Topeka Girls Frightened Lincoln took the game five throw to Miss Erna Parker. Miss Mora Daffy, phyling left forward for Topeka, due to the illness of Miss Gladys Greer, put Topeka one point ahead by caging a two-point under the hanker on a short pass from Miss Payne to Topeka, making their total points. This ended Topeka scoring for the first half, Lincoln's sailing from this point was easy, because the referee was calling fouls so rapid, upon the Topeka girls that they added to go near a Lincoln girl when Lincoln was in possession of the ball. Howard Defeats Hampton By. Chas. H. Williams Hampton, Va., March 6.—The annual Washington's Bidayt game, played by Howard and Hampton on Hampton's court, was won by Howard by a shooting of the Howard team were good, but they especially excelled in the latter, rarely ever missing set-ups. All the Howard players showed marked ability to cage the bull. The Howard team kept it throughout. Their height gave some advantages over the Hampton aggregation. A the spirit prevailed throughout the entire game, although at times the team were rough playing. The play by Richardson and Tibbs for Howard, and that of McLaren and Freeman for Hampton, were the features of the game. TRIMS PHILADELPHIA Brooklyn, N. Y., March 5—The Philadelphia Quarter Reserves met their Waterloo in the B. A. C. team at Labor Lyceum Thursday evening, Feb. 26, when they were defeated in one of the prettiest games seen here this season to close score of 32 to 25. The Philadelphia team put up some game and did not allow the Brooklyn boys to let up until the final whistle had blown. Brooklyn was first to score when Moss brought the ball out of a scrimmage and caged a basket. The local team led the way until the last minute of the first half, when, with two quick field goals by Ramson and Simmons, the Slow Town boys threw fast and furious, the Brooklyn half was fast and furious, the Brooklyn swing a swift pace. It was a nip and tucky affair until the end, with the A, C, victorious. HOOPER STOPS WILLIAMS Knoxville, Tenn., March 6—Billy Hooper, claimant of the middleweight belt, stopped Cyclone Williams in the skate of a scheduled eight-round bout at the auditorium under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias. Williams is given the first two rounds, as he was the aggressor. Hooper was content to feel his opponent out. Hooper was a rain of rights and leftofs to the head and jaw in the third and, from this time on led the fight. The Cyclone accepted four counts in the fifth round and was awarded the jaw. It became evident in the fourth round that the scientific punishment being administered by Hooper was fast weakening his opponent and for the fourth rounds the Cyclone was at his mercy. A BROOKLYN ATTRACTION Brooklyn, N. Y., March 5—That the City of Churches is coming into its own in the world of sports is evidenced in the attractions that are being fostered by the Second Battalion, 15th Battalion for the Army (the old Highters), and 16th Battalion to stun them at their own armory, 81 Harrison avenue. Saturday evening, March 6, the first Salem Crescent A. C. basket ball team will clash with the second battalion quintet, who, on Wednesday, played the B. A. C. Lightning Ploy to a stilt.

All roads lead to the Harrison avenue armory this Saturday night. WABASH AVENUE FIVE CHAMPION PLAYERS OF THE SEASON 12 The Wabash Basketball Five returned from their extended trip in the East February 28, after covering something like 3,000 miles, playing in 10 different cities and winning 10 out of 12 games. This is some record for a basketball team. The physical condition of the men, due to their clean living and proper training, enabled them to set up this wonderful record of victories over some of the fastest teams of the East. Creed Hubbard and Thornton Winters, playing guard, proved to be the backbone for the Wabash machine, playing in it, of the 12 games, never hesitating to take up their duties, and always determined to check the on-rush of their opponents. George Duff at center played a steady game throughout the trip, although he was handicapped after the third game with a charleyhorse. His genomish p meant much to the success of the team in the absence of Captain Blutt. Robert Anderson and Ralph Revels exhibited a fine style of play to the Easterners, bringing applause time and time again. Frank LeGare was an able utility man. Although handicapped by an arm that was fractured early in the season, he took his turn at guard. Capt. Virgil Blutt was handicapped by an attack of the flu, and at times was almost too weak to stand, yet he brought the grows to their feet with his sensational shooting. Much credit is due this sturdy little athlete for his spirit and gameness. The green and gold machine won its way into the hearts of the many thousands of fans who witnessed its wonderful team work and team play. BASKETBALL Spartan Braves (GOLD AND GREEN MACHINE) VS.

TO DECIDE CHAMPIONSHIP TO DECIDE CHAMPIONSHIP Now YEAR, March 5—The return meeting between the Spartan Braves and the Red and Black machine tonight (Friday) at the old camping ground, Manhattan Casino, is expected to be a hummer. That the prospectus boys has taken on a new lease is evidenced in the fact that enthusiasm is at its height among members of the 180th street aggregation at the showing made by the team in the clash with Alpha. Washington's birthday, it is true, has been a big margin, and is the only ordinary about beating Alpha, who was outlasted; but the fact remains that they demonstrated some superior team work against the famous "A" boys that old-timers say will sweep St. C. from the airport and has Bradford is on the alert and has been practicing for the conflict. The famous line-ups of both teams no doubt will remain the same as when they met last, with the possible exception of Hobey Johnson, the great center of the recent game, has been missing in their line-up in the line-up we will at least get one more glance at the old reliable combination of Tish and Dash. Tonight (Friday) all roads lead to Manhattan. NOTICE, SWIFT PREMIUM8 The Swift Profilms will hold a meeting Monday, March 8, at 3749 Wabash avenue, at 8 p. m. sharp. The Washington, M. p. m. sharp.

The Chicago boys claimed the Western championship and they reached Washington on a trail of victories. They had about 15 games to their credit and not a defeat. They had beaten the Vandals, Pollard's Collegiate, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh Scholastics, Philadelphia "Y." Wilberforce University, Howard University, and still some more. The Chicago team intended to take Washington, then move to Pittsburgh and conquer the Loews, then they would advance to Indianapolis, they would arrive in Chicago with their claim to the American championship fully established. When Howard lost to Chicago on the 19th it was then conceded that the Washington "Y" would meet the same fate. That Chicago fell by the way in Indianapolis for the American championship, the results of this game will show. Chicago took the lead by shooting a foul and then a goal. They were immediately overtaken by Washington when Hill caged two in quick succession, and Garrison got on the job for Chicago and gave him a five basket lead by the end of 15 minutes of play. Arnold and Kenner took some desperate chances and made three difficult baskets. When the whistle blow at the end of the game, the basket was taken to the good—the score being 21 to 17. Summary score (Washington)—Konner 10, Hill 8, Arnold 13, Turner 3, Tibbs 4 total 38. (Chicago)—Iovella 10, Anderson 4, Duff 6, Winters 11, Abbard 2; total 31. Score at end of 11, to 17 in favor of Chicago. Final score, 38 to 33, in favor of Washington "Y." Referee: N. Miller (Dunbar), Scorer: A. Offus. Timer: J. Brown. BIG ATTRACTION Brooklyn, N. Y., March 5.—The game that local basket ball fans have been looking forward to will be staged at Labor Lyceum next Friday evening, March 12, when the famous St. Christina and Black machine clashes with the Brooklyn Carlton Lightning Five. Recent performances of the local tossers stamp them as being in better condition at present to play a stiff game than at recent time this season. Their recent wins Dumbo and Regiment teams are making the wrist birds sit up and take notice. On the other hand when you take into consideration the close game the Vanduas of Vanite played Bradford's men at National High School on Washington's birthday night, although usually tough game against Spartan, which is slated (or tonight (Friday)) it calls for more thought. The done is here, boys; figure it out for your younger friends, including include this—the local favorites are playing on their home court (the court they know so well). HOOBIERS SWAMP LOUISVILLE Louisville, Ky., March 5. The Fighting Hoosiers turned in their fifth straight victory tonight by wimpling the Louisville team, 38 to 10. The team's ways need old Hap Hazzard, but jumped in and showed some brilliant passing, running up a lead of 16 to 3 for the first half. The Kentucky crowd tried to climb up in the final quarter, but the cadence that they had not set up things beyond a doubt. Pop Bryant was the goal grabber for the winners with eight baskets, while Eagleson, Bee and Jackson, ex-Louisville captain, teamwork in great shape, final score. I am thankful to The "Fighting Hoosiers" play Wilberforce on the home court March 5.

Easy to wash out --- HILLDALE TEAM READY FOR ACTION Darby, Pa. March 5—Interest in this year’s Hildale baseball team is very keen. Bolden is busy perfecting plans for booking the big eastern and western clubs on the Hildale circuit. An effort will be made to bring the American Glants, Detroit Stars and other western teams around the circuit when they come east. Nut Strong’s team will be booked. Camden has a population in the neighborhood of $5,000 and the Wednesday afternoon crowds will be augmented by Philadelphia fans from across the competition. Camden was and big league baseball became a necessity around Philadelphia Hildale stretched to New York and paid big salaries to such men as Poles, Santop, "Speed" Coercion, Courtland, Landy, Downs and others.

This new interest in independent baseball and most of the leading clubs in the East are clamoring for bookings. LANCASTER DID NOT FAIL A. J. Lively, Louisville, Ky., announces that he is going to put a team in that city. The fans would be pleased to have one, there is no doubt, but he starts off wrong by telling Ed. Lancaster where he failed to become the first player he will search the floor of the daily league for Ky, and the Freeman of some ten years ago, he will find out that Ed. Lancaster, was the most popular baseball man in the game and did more for the success of fandom than any other in Kentucky. Old timers recall Ed bringing the Philadelphia Giants to the game in 1914, the batteries be Griffin and Coleman; McClellan and Petway, "Ed" was the first man to bring C. I. Taylor from Birmingham, Ala., and C. I. has since done his best work in the north. When Lancaster promised the fans a good team he never disappoints, he has done the best to give the other follow credit for what he has done, rather than criticize.

Marion, Indiana—"I had terrible backache, my kidneys did not act normally—just a little, and high-colored. I came into possession of a package of Dr. Pierce's Anurio and have taken but half of the supply and hardly know I have a back as far as hurting is concerned.

Rosamond Johnson, well known composer, is a native of Jacksonville, Fl., but has made his home in New York City for a number of years, where he has held the position of Director of the Music Settlement School until he resigned in 1913 to devote more time to composing. A. He wrote many song hits for the Williams and Walker, and Cob and Johnson productions. "Under the Bamboo Tree" was one of the most popular titles of "Lil flair" and "Since You Went Away" are genuine classics in treatment and "Since You J. R. Johnson Went Away" are genuino classics in their naive racial treatment. Mr. Johnson is one of our pioneer composers, and in summarizing his works it is noted that he has adhered almost strictly and most naturally to racial tendencies: has made but few arrangements, rather preferring to create themes and subsequent treatment out of a subconscious memory of native intervals and tunes, thereby establishing a precedent and worthy example for future writers and most certainly a sound foundation for our much hoped for School of Negro Composers. The substance of the latter portion of the preceding statement, however, presages negate argury, for many Raco musicians do not believe our composers should be confined to racial music. A late composition of Mr. Johnson's is "The Banjo Dance," which is an attractive number and should find a place on many programs. The texts for many of his songs are written by his brother, James Weldon Johnson, poet, author and field agent of the N. A. A. C. P. T.

I would advise all who Churches GRACE PRESHYTERIAN CHURCH — The persons who thought to attend services at the church last Sabbath were disappointed. When the pastor and his would-be hearts got to the entrances they were locked and barred. When admission was gained it could easily be seen that everything had remained undisturbed since the close of services the preceding Sunday, and there were no indications of fire anywhere. The janitor had quit without giving any notice. Some of the men hostirred themselves and the kindergarten room was heated in time for the crowd of young people and children who came for Sunday school. Another janitor has been engaged and everything should be all right next Sunday. Next Sunday is the bi-monthly communion, when those accepted by the session, not already publicly acknowledged, will be read into membership. Baptism will be performed and new members received.

HINTS TO LAVERS So many letters have come to the Society Editor, taking advice on matter of love, that it was decided to create a department especially for this purpose. Mme. Lucillo Grey has been placed in charge of the department and letters will be promptly answered through this column. By Mme. Lucille Grey Dear Miss Grey: I am a girl of 17 and am dearly in love with a young man of 22. He wishes to call at my home to see me, but my mother objects. She will not consent for him to even talk with me over the telephone. Is it proper for me to meet him at my girl chum's home? Mother says I am too young to go with him or any other young man. What should I do? Under all circumstances obey your mother. While she may know, nothing derogatory of the young man she decides it proper to safeguard you from outside influences at your age. Your home, and not that of your girl chum, is the proper place to entertain your company. Bufalo an enthusiastic audience of 50 ode at St. Mary's church, 5240 Dearborn street, W. L. Evans, industrial secretary of the Urban league, made a very practical and logical speech on thrift, housing conditions and prejudice. His talk was frequently interrupted by vociferous applause.

I'm much worried, as my face is no longer round and plump.—Anxious Reader, Little Rock, Ark. Answer: Muscles of the face sag or become flabby either from sudden loss of flesh or old age. The treatment for the former condition is as follows: Cleanse the skin with good cream, then steam the face for 10 minutes. Proceed to massage the face with cocoa butter, using only upward, rotary movements back to the ears. After that treatment apply a solution to tighten the muscles. If you do not know of one, send me a stamped, self-addressed envelope and I'll send the name of such a solution. Question: Tell me what to do to reduce a double chin.—B. V. A., Chicago. Answer: A double chin too often comes when we form the habit of dropping the lower jaw when we are in thought or when sleeping. Most people sleep with their lower jaw dropped. If this annoying condition is of long standing you will have to work vigilantly and then results will come. Go to an expert masseur and sleep each night with a well madoch support. A self-addressed envelope sent me will give information how to cultivate one. Dr. Jenkins Taking Post Work Dr. N. A. Jenkins, Anderson, S.

An Investment Opportunity Colored people are putting forth an exceptional effort just now in the purchase of property in Chicago, and, from all respects throughout the country. It is, therefore, necessary, in order to maintain these purchases, that we should consolidate our moneys and establish corporations to handle our liabilities. There are great profits to be derived in the operation of this kind of business. With the money of mortgage, of the more rare business, we can easily realize from 10 to 25 per cent an account fee, with the return of the loan in monthly installments, with a per cent interest, which within itself assures a good dividend paying proposition. To this end we must instate upon your subscription for as many areas as you feel you can possibly assure. It all means do not pass up the innovation entirely. Take it first one above it not another, and take it as much as you can possibly interest to also invest with it. The mortgage business of this time should be very important to all. The responsibility rests upon all, and it is our duty to it that such a needed enterprise should meet with success. Get in touch with us and let us have your subscription.

Also 825 cases of Pneumonia and 193 deaths. Doctors predict that this is the 'beginning of an Influenza Epidemic such as we had last year when hundreds of thousands died as a result. Influenza can be prevented; last year's results prove that. Doctors recommend that a good germicelle should be used frequently. Probably one of the most successful germicelles used during the epidemic last year was Turpo, which is a combination of the old-time remedies of turpentine (which for years has been the best known cholera-inhibul in a puro mineral base). Mass physicians and hospitals use and recommend Turpo. Snuff a little Turp up the nostrils several times a day, and the flu germs will have little chance of getting a bite. Remember that Influenza, in a great majority of cases, develops into pneumonia, so prepare now. Buy a jar of Turpure of your drugl supply on hand, and use as directed. If in spite of all precautions, Infu- cololors, go to bed and call a physician.

Mail Orders; Postage 10c Extra FACTURED ONLY BY REMOVE OF URGHT LEE the office of the 58th and Wabash station, known as the Fourth police precinct, has brought to the district a new sense of security in the fact that all citizens are coupled with the courage, of seeing to it that all citizens are given a square deal regardless of racial identity. Actually, been connected with the police department for a number of years. He enjoys the confidence and respect of all those who know him. For a number of years he street station and acquitted himself in a creditable manner in handling the business of the department. Fortunately, not warped his judgment nor has it detracted from him as a man those finer attributes of character and courage essential to the impartial conduct of taxpayers to administer their affairs. Subordinates Parallel It is recognized that he has been sent to a station at which the conduct of his subordinates has at times used a disposition, by their action, to attack the officers of the law. Their wilful negligence in the performance of their duty was sufficient to give credence to the claim that the officers of the law spared of receiving just and impartial protection from the duty sworn millions of the law. It was and is believed that this manifest dereliction has been a result of this particular station in ferreting out outrages, as well as the scant attention paid to complaints coming from our group, largely reflected the attitude of the commanding officers of the station. Called "Black Calcutta" During the recent Racist riot, this particular station, then under the supervision of Acting Captain I. S. Lee, a relative of First Deputy Alcock, a relative of Deputy Calcutta, because of the brutal treatment given prisoners, it is claimed that officers from this station pillaged the home of the Johnson family, sold and Dearborn streets, where they had white rioters. Evidence to this effect was collected by a representative of the Thief Detective Agency and it is said was placed in the hands of Attorney General Briggs. Confidence in Enlighten It is not expected that Captain Enlighten will be able to bring about immediate reformation in the administration, but it is expected that his good judgment and high character of intelligence, with his noble desire to do efficient police work, will create a new organization and provide the officers of law and order a more wholesome aspect for law and order than that which existed under his predecessor. In this he will have the instilled support of the Chicago Defender and we no sympathy save that which comes as a result of obedience to the law. Raymond F. Thesavealt Dead Raymond F.

Fields The campaign now being waged for ward commiteeeman, stripped of all verbosity, subterfuge and political manoeuvres, is question—which of the two candidates, Warren B. Douglas or Edward H. Wright, is best qualified for the position. It is admitted, in the beginning of our argument, that Mr. Douglas is a young man of fair ability as a lawyer and of good standing as a citizen. His advent into politics has been of short duration, and he is not nor importance as to force the admission—even by his friends and supporters—that he is wholly unprepared by any fair measurement of consideration of flue representation in the republican councils of the party as the official spokesman of the second ward. Wright the "Right" Man On the other hand the rightful heir to the position, by reason of training and ability, has spent several years training and developing skills in the administration of the affairs for his people and for the advancement and progress of the Republic party, use a party, in the city, in the state, in the district or in the ward II. Wright will mean two distinct things: first, he will know what his constituents in the Second ward are, and second, he will know what his constituents are resentment; and second, he enjoys the confidence and respect of the Republic leaders of his country and state. In the last things to which we are entitled Haa Fought for Ideals In the relative ability of the two men there is no comparison. The weight of the argument is in Wright's favor. Over thirty years of citizenship, This noble thing and fighting for a higher expression of racial manhood. Thirty years of aggressive activity, not only along political lines but civic as well, this noble thing and fighting for a question has ever been raised to no question or honesty in dealing with his fellow man. In an uninterrupted life of brave and fearless fighting, for the light as has been given him to see it, the question of citizenship. In the foregoing statement, the successful contradiction of same is challenged by any or all of the supporters of Mr. Wright's opposition. The reason is supposed to prevail. The voters of the Second ward are supposed to be illightened and directed by facts and not by the solitary ambitions of those who seek to rule and rule. Other Wards Active B. J. McLaughlin, of the Sixth ward, Dr. W. H. Reed, of the Thirty-first, James Breen, of the Thirtieth, are among the mayor's most subgenital members and would have the loyal support of our group in their respective wards. Needs Care of Good Home In one of our large hospitals is little Ruth, 4 years old. Ruth's father deserted her mother. Ruth has some amused friends, offer to help the children take the boys. Ruth has not grown properly, so nobody wanted her. The mother she had to work hard and work hard hard. Ruth is well now and the hospital authorities say it is to the child's interest to be removed. Ruth needs the care of a nurse, and the case is investigated by the ill-defined Children's Home and Aid Society. This society finds over so many worthy-cases as Ruth's. Any good mother interested in Ruth's would be children should call at Room 1516 Republic Building, or call Harrison 6627.

The object, by the chairman, Dr. John W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, was for St. Mark's pillar-burning against continual bomb throwing in Park district. The meeting had been largely advertised, and several prominent citizens killed to speak, but as a result, the crowd was fortunately, however, for the large crowd of people who were present, Dr. C. E. Johnson who was not advertised as one of the pillar-burning presidents, and without previous notification was drafted into service. The officers delivered an able and comprehensive display of oratory, but with telling force and effect awakened the people to the urgent necessity of concrete action in the war, which he be accomplished which would have it wholesome effect in subverting what he believed to be an impending calamity. Feara Outbreaks Dr. Bentley with great care and precision portrayed to the audience the trials of the victims, able in their power to prevent a recurrence of what transpired last summer, to said, in substance, however, by the use of glaring headlines of certain daily papers, indicated that these insults were with the violators of the law. He contended that at least their silence in refusing to honestly and fearlessly admit the crimes was liable and conscienceous manner, made them at least silent promoters of the many violations and outrages committed upon members of our group. Bomb-Throwora Unmolested The doctor said: "I am not quite able to understand how the violators of law travelling one particular path of life and affecting one particular group of people can continually keep the alleged motivation from the prohended by the chief law officer of the county, when another set of violators of the law affecting another group of people can continually keep the alleged motivation from the alightest motivation from the man in whom the voters have imposed the responsibility of forcing out criminal activity for State's Attorney Mucchay Hoyne to apprehend, indict and specially bring to justice the murderers of the criminal genius, though a criminal appeared to have been incased in the deepest mytery. I congratulate Mr. Hoyne on the activity of his procedure to the court and to say that his apparent dereliction in ferreting out the perpetrators of the bombing outrages given rise to the deepest despair in the breasts of his victims. At the conclusion of Dr. Bentley's address M. C. B. M. Cason, Jr., was introduced by the chairman and delivered with various phases of the situation.

All of the two shots which were fired took effect in the city. Wells, who had been emotional attention could be given him at Provident hospital, where he was immediately rushed. Alonzo was taken into custody by Officer David Horn. Cause of Trouble The cause of the trouble is said to have arisen several weeks ago while Alonzo was sick in bed with influenza. Wells left the keys to his apartment with Alonzo. These Alonzo is said to have allowed a carpenter and gas man have in order to make repairs. When Alonzo was sick some of his clothes had disappeared and, of course, questioned Alonzo, who being sick in bed, claimed to know nothing of the missing articles. According to statements made by Alonzo at the coroner's request Wednesday he having given the keys to one in order that they might steal the clothes.

While in there he noticed Wells' entrance and immediately left the place; but Wells followed him to the entrance and ensured resulted in a physical encounter and the shooting which, according to Alonzo, was done in self-defense.

He is said to have used liquor freely, and on the day of the tragedy entered Mrs. Jackson's flat, flourishing the revolver and declaring that he was going out to get Wells. Mrs. Mason stated that Alonzo was a victim of the building, and that all of the women were afraid of him. Another witness, a woman who keeps a newsstand in front of the cigar store, stated that Alonzo and Wells were walking together, and that the former was shouting at the latter with an hilt, and without notice began firing. Alonzo is a middle aged man, is not married and lives alone in the basement.

Write Do THE CHICAGO DEFENDER YANCEY MILLS TO MEET DEATH BY ROPE (Continued From First Page) roomed, as belonging to Mills, Isaac Gomberg, a tailor, produced a sample of cloth, and testified that he had made an overcoat for Gansky from the emmune material. Mrs. Abrams, with whom Gansky roomed, said that he had worn a brown velvet hat and this same overcoat when he left home that morning. Give Damaging Testimony Anthony Taylor, keeper of a rooming house at 832 State street, stated that Mills had gotten up unusually early that morning, explaining that he "had a job to do." When he came back he carried a large bundle under his arm. That afternoon he was dressed in a brown velour hat and a brown overcoat, much too small for him. He said the piece of cloth was of the same color as his shirt. Mills. He was corroborated by George Boone, Albert Morris and Charlie Brown, roomers there. Boone added that he had examined the coat closely. He had seen the name Isaac Gombern on the label of the coat. Friends Toll of Visit Proston Brown, 25 East 28th street who knew Mills as Willie Williams said that Mills visited his home that Sunday afternoon dressed in the same manner, and wanted to trade the brown overcoat to him. He was corroborated by Joe Rohne, 18 East 30th street, who was visiting his home at the time, was also seen him dressed in the same manner as he dressed by Itonie Titus, 1921 Wahab availi- whom he told he was going to Texas to visit his mother. Tangible Evidence Joseph Harter (white), 18 years old 1115 South Kedzie avenue, testified that on the morning Mr. Brizolera was killed he had gone into his place to order an orange ammel. he found to find any one who had been in his car he called toward the rear of the place, when Mills, whom he positively identified, confronted him in the doorway and informed him that the boss was across the street, and he, being the porter, was there. He identified Mills in a group of men a month later when he was brought back from Philadelphia by Captain Morgan Collins, Central station. The Flight of Mills On the Sunday afternoon in question Mills told his friends he was going, by way of St. Louis, to Palestine to see his mother, who lives at 621 Calhoun avenue, but Captain (Killins) discovered an unidentified suitcase, to Annapolis, Md. He also visited Baltimore and New York, and was arrested in Philadelphia as a pickpocket, where he gave the name of Oscar Richardson, but the fingerprints were not found to identical with those of Mills, who was formerly in the navy. Mills Takes the Stand Mills, cool, calm and confident, repudiated all the testimony that had been offered against him. He stated that he went to Annapolis, Md., to see Louise Dorsey, 6 Block street, as he was the father of her child. He not a sailor friend of his, who told him that the polico were looking for him. He then went to New York and Bhilai, where he met the police where he was confronted by Captain Collins, who informed him that "the world is not as large as it seems." No one also took the stand in Mills' defense, Assistant State's Attorneys Grover C. Niemeyer and James McShane handled the case for the prosecution, and Mills has nothing to complain of about the fairness of his trial. He and the attorneys Charles Horgan and Jeremiah Galloway white, who represented the defense, for the aggressive battle they fought for the life and freedom of their client. Arguments for a new trial will be heard March 12.

DEATH TO RHEUMATISM ADVERTISEMENT Mississippi Lilly Whites Playing Same Old Tricks That the old line Lily white element of the Republican party in Mississippi is up to their old time method of working up a hand-made delegation of hard-working, hard-working, hard-working to regularity, following or consequences, was shown in the conduct of their hirings at Greenville, where they met with congressional district committee, the black belt of the delta, the district represented by John R. Lynch some time ago in congress, who meeting buddies beckoned him to the tertiary, G. W. Gilliam of Clarkadale, to insure call for district convention and elect a chairman, the vacancy being the late chairman, J. C. Chapple. The committee is composed of 32 members, 20 of whom were present, the balance surviving once being represented by proxies. After closing C.N. Miller as chairman, the hirling, led by E. P. Booz, of St. Louis in family, realizing their hopeless minority by several test votes, withdrew from the committee and organized another, endeavoring to place themselves in a position to issue a call for a congressional convention from which they could send a contesting delegation to Chicago. Notwithstanding that of the entire membership present and acting, they were only able to muster 7 followers, they were loud in saying that it did not make any difference whether they had any following or not; whether they were right or wrong, they had assurances from persons higher up, one an ex-chairman of the Republican national committee, that since they were supporting Mulverhill they would be recognized and seated by the national convention. It is a well known fact to all persons even partially familiar with Mississippi. Republican politics, that 99 percent of the electorate are supporting Perry W. Howard for national committeeman, not only among the blacks, but the whites; in fact, all white voters are looking for reenrollments. Republicans for revenue only, are supporting Howard and the regular organization, the White House (white), present chairman, the chairman and whom Muhlverhill has served for the past 20 years, and Gco. C. Granberry, the secretary, for the same length of time as the chairman, the heads and managers of the party will countenance, encourage or support such gross irregularity as shown by the "Humperts at Grecville this week, the heads at Grecville boasted policy throughout the state. With their happy approval and delight, no person of color was appointed to any offices in the state, and now, not content with that, would deliberately take, without regard to regularity, all representation in the councils of the party, using as dummies and decoys such unscrupulous hirings and misfits who do their bidding and by their presence and connections deceive the unsuspecting, but all the time fighting and opposing real men. Howard and his following are linked with friends in doubtful states beyond Dixie, where their votes count; they can be relied upon to properly appreciate a square deal by the party at Chicago by campaigning and going to the polls in November to swell the majority, when such an office holding trust like that in Mississippi headed by Mu'erhill will be quietly sitting down waiting for a Republican come into power to give him a post office. We simply do not believe the national committee nor national convention will stand for such infamy.—(Signed), W. N. Nichols, Greenville, Miss. YOUR SPRING DECORATING Landlord won't decorate for you?

The question pres- upon a demand that since these children should be admitted to the white school that since they were not white they we- mission to the white school. Being ne- use children have no public schools, it s is an illustration of the absurdity of MAKING AND KEEPING FRIENDS IF ANY GROUP of which our citizenship is composed stands in need of influential friends and well wishers throughout the country, it is ours. We regret that there are some who occasionally give expression to the unwise suggestion that we repel contact and association with our white fellow citizens and that we should fight our battle alone and upon race lines. In other words, that we should segregate ourselves not only socially but politically. This is unwise. While we do not seek contact or association with those by whom our presence is not desired, we should gladly welcome and cheerfully cooperate with those of the white race who are willing to act and co-operate with us for the accomplishment of our purposes and the attainment of our ends. IN THE EXCELLENT ADDRESS delivered recently by Rev. Haynes Holmes this point was forcibly brought out. We should not under any circumstances favor or countenance or encourage racial segregation along any line, whether it be voluntary or compulsory. What we want and insist upon is the same public rights and privileges enjoyed by other groups of American citizens, not separate accommodations, even though they be equal. Racial separation along any line means racial humiliation and degradation. Equal separate accommodations is not only a physical and a financial impossibility, but the same is offensive, objectionable and obnoxious, and therefore cannot be tolerated. SO FAR as racial segregation is concerned perhaps we would not, after all, seriously object to it if the same is made applicable to the different races and groups of which our citizenship is composed. If, for instance, it is the policy of the government of certain states to have separate accommodations on public conveyances for persons of different races and nationalities—a car for the Irish, one for Jews, one for Italians, one for Germans, one for French, another for the Japs, another for the Chinese, etc.—in that event one for our group might not be out of place. BUT TO SINGLE OUT our group alone as one which is entitled to special consideration along this line is really asking too much. It is an honor which, in our modesty, we do not feel that we deserve, for according to the mandate of the Supreme Court of the United States, accommodations accorded our group must be, if separate, "equal in every respect." This would entail an expense upon the common carriers which our patronage does not justify or warrant. Hence the law as thus construed is evaded and violated, which, in many instances, is equivalent to no accommodation at all. IN THIS CONNECTION it is not out of place to call attention to a recent decision of the attorney general of Mississippi. It appears there are some Mongolians who have children of school age. Under the law of that state there are separate schools for whites and blacks. The question presented to him was based upon a demand that since these children were not black they should be admitted to the white school. His decision was that since they were not white they were not entitled to admission to the white school. Being neither white or black these children have no public schools, it seems, to attend. This is an illustration of the absurdity of racial segregation. THE SAME OLD STORY STION of compulsory military training seems the next session of Congress, or until after the 1950s, the House of Representatives will be represented in a congressional election. Popular sentiment with reference to the wisdom or necessity for such a representative are disinclined to take a positive result in the two major parties shall have passed upon the House of Representatives. SEAL can be said on both sides of the question, ings to the front once more the same old story. The question of whether the military training of Congress is necessary for such a representative is the subject of Congress's inquiry upon its merits. The same of Congress's inquiry upon its merits are afraid to put arm to arm. This alleged reason is hypocrisy, iniscreve and fear of violence or insurrection by giving us misleadings. This is the government itself would be destroyed. TH IS that this ghost called the "Negro problem" before the public eye, simply and solely for deceiving the public mind. With the average of the people of the country, the government is already of the south can hold the whites of that pre- and deceive the masses of the whites in other for the unconstitutional suppression of the votes of the state. The same is true of the亿ra-y seats in those bodies, and thirty members of the state, who are to be elected if they pass upon them upon their merits. BY OCCUPY SEATS not procured upon merit, the question upon its merits. The fact in that the government is not to be considered as the proper source of our country is disgraced. Our government is living the pure and genuine type of Democracy, and nothing that every American citizen is not the same as the country. The government is not in the government of life, liberty and property, and in the defense of which he is affected for a hundred years. SENCE of these men in Congress gives the like a laughing stock for the rest of the civilized world, and the same set up by us of typifying a pure and genuine united under German autocracy or Turkish atrocity, limited for the suppression of our vote at the Session presented by many of those men were not the result of the most recent and most recent of the票. In the same way, by us presented with living monuments of methods related to undermine and destroy the fundamental system. SEAL OF "NEGRO PROBLEM" is more mythical than genuine. As long as popular sentiment will accept the same, the method is not the same as the will. It will never be in a position to consider or pass unless whether it be military training, the tariff, or the taxation of the state. The only way to avoid it is to a continuation of southern domination on the THE QUESTION of compulsory military training seems to have been deferred until the next session of Congress, or until after the approaching year of the congressional elections. Popular sentiment seems to be so much divided with the general population, and the security for such training, that senators and representatives are disinclined to take the most of it. In 1971, the CONGRESS was held in the city, and the other until the two major parties shall have passed upon it in national convention. THE GOOD DEAL can be said on both sides of the question. Its discussion at this time brings to the front once more the same old story which for the past forty years has rendered southern members of Congress a thing which is not likely to be considered any question upon its merits. Their alleged reason for opposing it may be military training in that they are afraid to put arms in the hands of blacks, and the government is not likely to be effective in punishing the men who have no more fear of violence or insurrection by the military training than they have that the government itself would be destroyed as a result there is the TRUTH IS that this ghost called the "Nupro problem" is constantly held up and kept before the public eye, simply and solely for the benefit of the misleading and deceiving the public mind. With the average southern political is this is his best paying political asset. It is the one question upon which the ruling oligarchy of the south can hold the whites of that section in sub-national politics. The question is whether the White and Black countries, but for the unconstitutional suppression of the white in other parts of the country. But for the unconstitutional suppression of the white in other parts of the country, but for the unconstitutional suppression of the white in other parts of the country, but for the unconstitutional suppression of the white in other parts of the country, who now occupy seats in those bodies, could not be elected if the voters of these cities were to be elected. SINCE TRABY OCCUPY SEATS upon their merits. Any public question upon its merits. The fact is that these men represent and are the products of the very worst and most degraded election method—the most unethical country is ill-graced. Our government is held out to the world as typifying the country. The government is not likely to be the term means anything, that every American citizen is not likely to be secure in the exercise and enjoyment of life, liberty and property, but that he has a voice in the government under which he lives and for the support of the people. As a result, and in the defense of which he is expected to die if necessary. THE PRESENCE of these men in Congress gives the lie to this claim. They make us a laughing stock for the rest of the civilized world with reference to the fact that they would not gonuine democracy. No crimes committed under German autocracy or Turkship are than those committed for the suppression of our vote at the South. The certificates of election presented by many of these men were procured through the country, they would not countenance. In their official personals the country prevailed with live methods and practices which are calculated to undermine and destroy the fundamental principles of our governmental system. THE SOCIAL GELDEN HACD PROBLEM is more mythical than real and more politically correct. As long as you pass in acquiescence in and tolerate the continuance of the methods referred to, those matters from the South will never be in a position to consider or pass upon any question upon its merits whether it be military training, the tariff, female suffrage or the soon long the country will patiently submit to a continuation of southern domination on the filmux excuse that they are afraid of "Negro supremacy."

CHICAGO DEFENDER CARRY YOUR GRIP MISTER? CARRY YOUR 'G.RIP MISTER? DEMOCRATIC POLITICIAN OUR POLITICAL SUPPORT IRE PUD LICAN POLITICIAN 2. Pogon 2023 UNDER THE CAPITOL DOME. Washington, D.C., March 5.—The uppermost tople of discussion among the wise once of the Race in the capital city during the past week was the resolution adopted by the Lincoln League at its meeting in Chicago demanding that the second section of the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution be enforced. The amendment to the resolution was intended to represent the 1st Congress of the Constitution in the United States during for President when any state shall deny the right of suffrage to any of its male inhabitants of voting age. The southern states disfranchise all of the male inhabitants of our people. In one way and another, But there are many persons who who do not see how the Race is to be benefited by congression. The second section of the 1st Amendment of the Right of a State to be当选ed; they rather regard federal sanction of state disfranchisement as a very dangerous matter for our people. As two wrongs do not make one right, They also question the right of Congress to endorse state disfranchisement, because the Colored people do not derive their franchise rights from an act of Congress, but by a vote of all of the United States, three-fourths of them are considering a tax-refund. Supremist Court would declare any such congressional endorsement of state disfranchisement unconstitutional as making of no effect the first section conferring the right of suffrage. What is needed, the wise ones say, is a congressional investigation of the operations of the three-fourth war anthem-and-reaffirming the constitution of the late slave-holding state maintain a republican form of government, as the Constitution requires. The death of Major Raymond Pulman, the chief of the pulses department in the city of Washington, because he was not any friend or well-wisher of them; on the contrary, he was an avowed enemy, and did all he could to protect them and interests of our people, who have learned to love their friends and to hate their enemies as their enemies. A chief whom a detective shot to death here recently went out into the dark with the laconic and expressive words of his friends, and hope the guy who shot will go there, too. "He is likely to catch up at that torrid place, as the commander of the army has been represented, that "thou hast seen it is probable that there will be 'a hot time' when the two of them meet in the place," he judge H. Terrell, who is one of the most useful as well as ornamental citizens, after returning from Hortonburg, where he delivered an admonition to the citizens from there to "Little Old New York" for a look-in, went to Pittsburgh, Thursday, where he was scheduled to meet the Negro Woman's Industrial Union. S. H. Dudley and Joseph H. Maxwell are planning to open an amusement park near the city, with a moving picture theater as one of the features. The enterprise should succeed, as such a project would both Mr. Dudley and Mr. Maxwell understand the public needs in the matter of amusement and accommodation. It is interesting to note that the House military affairs committee has decided to omit from the army recruitment training feature, the purpose being, it is said, to present the matter in a separate bill. The fact is that the southern Democratic members are opposed because it would necessarily include Colored citizens, but just why the Republican members in the Congress should defer to the wishes of the southern members in this matter is not clear. The United States must be the universal military training feature may be incorporated in a separate bill. The Senate has approved of the Harman resolution providing for a thorny system of the District of Columbia. We should all be glad of this, as the mis management of the Colored schools well as gross discrimination in allowing the Colored schools their proper proportion of the school appropriation and the investigation is on, the faces are keyed so high with indignation and disgust they are bound to make a decided decision on the issue with the Parents' Association and other organizations which have been making a strong fight for better management of the schools in the county which used to be the most liberally supported Colored school system in the county. The women workers in laundries in the district of Columbia will many Colored ones, will soon have their wages fixed by the minimum ware board. It is understood that a minimum wage of $16.50 will be allowed. The usual uncertainty and scandal in the selection of delegates to the national Republican convention for the District Republican convention for an election of delegates to the district Republican convention, as issued by Aaron Bradshaw, chairman of the Republican central committee, objections were received delegates and alternates, the election place March 29. The Republican state committee, of which William T. Gallier is chairman, insists that the so-called objections be so resolved to it by the national Republican committee. Politics in the District of Columbia are always of the fast and furious sort in a presidential year, and the objections are so serious as the citizens of the district conceded their right of self-government and self-determination of who shall be their representatives in national contests. The objections of the affairs of the District of Columbia Democrats as well as Republics of the district are insisting that they be conceded self-government and advocacy of their rights to insist upon it. It looks as if the Colored people of the government will never get any fair and free play until the district is given the right to govern its own affairs. Senator Iced Smoot of Utah, who is considered one of the stanchest friends in open letter congress comes out in an open letter expressing that he interfered in any way with the holding of a meeting at the Dunbar and Philip Rudolph, editors of the Messenger Magazine and radial of the radicals, were to speak and at which he would be present at the meeting place having been changed to the John Wesley Church. Senator Smoot says he know nothing about the Thomas. The only action he has taken, he says, as a friend of Howard Umland, was to protest against William Jennings, the library of that institution. Senator Smoot says, in conclusion: "I have always against him crowism, sorrowful against him crowism, ever since I have been in the Senate." Investigation of the district public system of education.

RAISING RENTS EDUGENE, MARSHALL There are landlords making some increase in their rents. But there is a serious and difficult question about how much that increase in rents should be. Our laws determine that no increase should be; our government has fixed the rates for passengers and freight on the railroads; labor unions have the compensation that laboring employees are all familiar with the methods by which the prices of food, fuel and other necessities and commodities have been regulated. But no definite method has been proposed to regulate the prices of posing rents except in a very few places in the United States. In this city we note that several real companies have posed more of adultery committees public officials have taken up the question of regulating the increase of rents, but none of these organizations are in charge of such matters more a few causes at a time. In all of these facts, it is easy to see that some legal method will have to be found to determine what constitutes an unlawful increase in rents, a easy matter to settle, because an increase which would be unjustifiable in one case might be unjustifiable in another. Our landlord might be able to increase his rents only 25 per cent, while another may have to increase his rents to 40 per cent to make a fair profit. In my opinion, an increase of 10 per cent to 25 per cent for the average landlord to make in the rent for apartments. Down in Ohio, it appears that Fred D.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES HYGIENICS AND SANITATION The Increase of Doctors' Fees A few weeks ago the papers published by our racial group in this community, announced that the local Med- The increase a week lapsed by the county, announced local Society had decided that on 1919, the minimum fee for office con- sultation would be $25, and home visits (viz- tures to patient's home) during the day, the minimum fee would be $2 and for night calls from $5 up. Of course, these with the character of service re- rendered, the time and reputation esti- mate and standing Dr. A. W. Williams of the physician. The general public seem to be very much gritated and alarmed over the advance of medicine and the need to lend the doctor for office consultation and $1.50 for house calls, $15 to $25 for confinement and the look at the patient, $9 to 10 days thereafter, the phone call to preperous. Physicians have to live—they have obligations to meet just the same as other people; they have to be patient, to be there and be confronted with the high cost of living—high office rent, the upkeep and the high cost of automobile repairs. Physicians have advanced from 9 cents five years ago to 26 cents per gallon now; shoes have advanced from $3.50 to $12 and have advanced from $1.50 to $6.00, especially when the winter season. Therefore, the economic situation made it imperative for the doctor to take his fees, we years ago and to think about a civil cation as a whole was rather tardy in advancing its fees for services. We are satisfied that the people are willful, intelligent and skillful services rendered. We understand that the minimum fee for confinement (normal time) than that recommended by the Chicago Medical Society, which is composed of 3,000 white and Colored physicians, is from $3 to $25 for house visits; office examinations from $3 to $15 and up; confinements from $50 to $200, etc. The Value of a Good Doctor The doctor is a good doctor any city or community has good price and cannot be estimated. A good conscientious, well informed, studious physician—and when we say studious, we mean a doctor who keeps himself up to date with the latest medical information to-date line of treatment for the alleviation of human suffering and the prolongation of human life—one who purchases and reads the latest medical information any price. Whenever you go into a doctor's office and see his medical journals unwrapped and covered with dust, you can make up your mind that you want to trust with whom to trust yourself. Whenever you find that your doctor is too busy to visit hospital clinics, too busy to take a Post Graduate course, he is about to learn about your physical condition and you had better shim him. Medicine is a progressive science and a good doctor never gets through studying, investigates and tests, but out the easiest, the safest and the best methods of taking care of the sick. a teacher of good doctor A chemist or doctor a non-progressive doctor or just a prescription-writing doctor, who calls to see you twice a day or every day he calls by writing a new prescription is only buffling you and kidding himself. The more prescriptions he writes, the more likely he is to leine, the more likely and the more evident is it that he does not know what he is doing—he is just hitting or knocking the door in the dark, hoping that kind Nature will produce the cure, instead of him being able to use Nature in bringing about the restoration of doctor is Nature's best assistant in bringing about the restoration of health. Therefore, the prescription A NEGRO PARALLEL (From The Wall Street Journal, Feb. 20, 1926). With no intention of comparing the superconscious Irishman to the superconscious American international parallel, it is necessary to supplement the merely business comment made in these columns, on the attempt to raise money for Irish propaganda improperly and deceptively called "bonds." That our immense present strength in the world protects us from British resentment of what is nevertheless a good feeling goes without question. But let us imagine a close parallel. Let us suppose the Negroes of the former slave states, intelligence and usness to enforce the fourth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution. Let us suppose that they formed a party for agitation at home and abroad. Let us suppose that either assume that kept the law who will maintain constant costy uncertainty and alarm. Let us suppose that they called this party of agitation a "republic," and sent representatives to stir up feeling against the American government. Substituting, purely for supposition of course, "Negro" for "nationalist," these delegates in England would be substantially in the same position as De Valera and his following now occupy in the United States. There would be exactly the same appeal to sympathy, because, to offset the Irish in America, there are Colored races presumably in sympathy with our Negroes, greatly outnumbering them even as our Irish are said to outnumber the present inhabitants of Ireland. Exactly as the Irish agitator here pleads that the Ulsterman, a convinced supporter of Britis, rule, should be ignored because of a voting minority, so the Negro agitator in Britain might demand that the white minority of the population of the former Confederate states should also be ignored in the process of what he would undoubtedly call, like Mr. De Valera, "self-determination." It would be absurd also to tell the Englishman that he was unable to understand a purely domestic problem, like that our American Negro presents. Not only could he retort in kind about our meddling in Ireland; he could also tell us, with considerable truth, that he had been successfully governing Colored races before we were weaned. If would only need to point to the nil-pervading red on the map of the world to prove his case. Under British law no such Negro bond issue could even be offered to the public. Under British good faith such an issue would not be tolerated even if it were legal. Fortunately we are not in such a position to parable about a mole and a brain which we might more frequently supply in our international relations. Our Suggestion We believe that many of our readers desire to, and many do, patronize a large number of race physicians out of pure "Race priddis." Or out of mere sentiment and friendship. That is all well and good, but the Race should not accept any slipshod, aimless methods of treatment out of any race pride, sentiment or friendship. We should investigate the reputation, character and standing of a physician, including his medical education, before intruding him with our lives. The practice of medicine and surgery are sacred trusts and the doctor who spends the most of his time having "a good time" is not the safest and most trustworthy man in time of serious illness of yourself or of those who are near and dear to you. And we would further suggest that you select a good, competent physician—it is not necessary that you select an old, experienced doctor, but see that he comes from a good medical school, that he is studious, that you have noticed him attending medical societies regularly, that he frequents hospital clinics and that he slips away every year or every two or three years and takes a Post Graduate course in Medicine or Surgery, that he buys the latest and most up-to-date journals and periodicals, etc., and other things being equal, that man will make you a safe, conscientious, reliable, trustworthy family physician. THE SOUTH COMMITS ANOTHER "CRIME" (From Richmond Times-Dispatch, Feb. 19, 1920.) Once more the South is being pilored. It is being incoercily battered by northern newspapers, not for robbing the local church, but for robbing the theme—or for protesting in cotton—another favorite theme—or even for monopolizing the seats of mighty, but for defeating universal military training out of uniform and to prevent his becoming too proficient in the use of firearms. To be editorially brow-batched, northern publicists is a familiar complication. The nation has been guilty of innumerable wrongs against the common weed ever since it consented to the freedom of the slaves and to a reconstruction of its domain at the hands of benevolent carpet-hangers and patriotic Norwegian politicians. It has not been long since the North was pouring out its abuse upon the South or having compelled the countenance of the North to impose a condition, that the southern Negro might be kept sober. It was abused for years because its representatives in congress, because of its climate induced by northern and temperate climates, and because of the government and were dictating the course of the nation. It was abured because its climate induced a northern army cantonments south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers. It was abused because it stood so long and so successfully in the way of suffrage for now. It is being abused some more. A Democrat causes of the house, presumably dominated by southern Democrats, by the assault the time being of a universal training bill. It is alleged that the southern Democrats cared nothing about the cost of this system; that they smashed international consideration, but that they smashed universal training simply because they revolted at the prospect of training a million or more Negroes each year in the use of arms. Such an argument may have had no part in the action of the Democratic Negro in the record that the Negro was mentionsed for that role or in the interviews which followed the voting, but since the question has been raised by outsiders, the South has been the most important factor in the thought of putting the young southern Negro in uniform and of giving him a title and side arms for any period, long or short, does not appeal to the majority of people. The experience of the South in reminding the demobilized Negro soldier that after all he is still a Negro, and will never be anything else, war was not such a problem, but was not such as to involve further adventure in that direction. The fact, however, that of those who helped to make up the overwhelming majority against universal training at least half were northerners, has made no impression upon those who habitually visit "primes" of government upon the South.
