500 RAILROAD MEN IN NATIONAL MEET HERE RESCUE 15 YR. OLD GIRL FROM LAIR OF UNDERWORLD Vol. 2.—No. 40 RESC AMER U. S. POLICY IN HAITI ASSAILED Secret Investigator Says American Officers Suppress Facts; Natives Oppressed The statement issued by Secretary of State Colby in defense of the government's policy in Haiti, especially its attitude affecting the conduct of the National City Bank, of New York, at its Haitian branch and the conduct of the American Marines, has caused a controversy which has assumed a gigantic proportion. Secretary Colby issues a lengthy statement in defense of the government's policy and attempts to dismiss the controversy by charging that the charges are made in the heat of a political campaign and are only irresponsible utterances coming from unworthy sources. The facts, however, apparently are to the contrary. Salaries Withheld It is a known fact that the officers of the National City Bank withhold the salaries of the President and Secretaries, State Counsellors, and Palace Interpreters of Haithi, stating that it would be continued until the government of the occupied islands adopted a less antagonistic attitude toward the American authorities. This information was imparted through the state department to the Hon. J. Barau Haitian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Barau protested against the action of Col. McHenry, the American financial adviser in withholding the salaries of these officials. According to the statement issued by Mr. Barau, these officials have not received any salaries since June, although other public officers in Haithi have been paid regularly. I. Weldon Johnson's Statement Mr. James Weldon Johnson, a prominent figure in public affairs, spent considerable time in Haiti studying conditions, and has since made an authoritative report on Haitian international affairs. In this report it is indicated that the American government has put into operation a strict censorship upon all news emanating from the island, and that the two officials sent there to investigate, were of themselves of such prejudicial temperament, that their report not only smacks of unfairness, but cannot be accepted as a fair and impartial statement of facts. Mr. Johnson further charges that the conduct of the American Marines in Haiti under the command of Major General LeJenne, and Admiral Knapp, had made Haiti unsafe for democracy and that the investigation by these two men could only be looked upon as an attempt at official whitewashing before Congress convenes. "It should be borne in mind that there has yet been no official denial of the charges made against the Admin- (Continued on page 6) GARVEY TURNS HIS GUNS ON N. A. A. C. P. NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 29.—Marcus Garvey, the Universal Negro Improvement Assn.'s provisional president of Africa, created considerable excitement in New York last week when he assailed the N.A.A.C.P. Mr Garvey, in a scathing denunciation of the Association, said that for seven years the association has been advancing itself and creating fat-salaried positions at the expense of the colored race, and had been giving to the world the impression that the Negro wants social intercourse with the white race. The Improvement Assn.'s announces that it has opened headquarters for the state of Ohio in Columbus, recently. Whites Turn To Lynching Each Other Here MADE BIG PROFITS Lovers Proposed, But Judge Haas Disposed JURY EXONERATES MOTHER-IN-LAWOF MURDER CHARGE Returns Verdict of Justifiable Homicide and Frees Mother Who Slew to Protect Her Daughter John Henderson, age 28, 3216 Dearborn St., was shot Tuesday night by Mrs. Anna Brown, 3145 Dearborn St. for an alleged assault upon her daughter, Mrs. Bertha Henderson, Henderson's wife. The shooting was said to have been the culmination of a number of assaults and abuses upon the part of the husband upon the wife. Henderson, who returned home from work Tuesday night, appeared to have been incensed because of the absence of his wife, who was visiting a moving picture show on State St. Absence of Supper Starts Argument After some preliminary discussion with people in the house, Henderson seriously complained because of the absence of his wife and no supper prepared when he got home. During the controversy with other residents, Mrs. Henderson, who had recently undergone an operation, said to have been superinduced by abuse and cruelty, came home. In the controversy be- (Continued on page 6.) An interesting echo from the attempt of hoodlum whites to lynch colored men was sounded when a mob of white men attempted to lynch John E. Madrejewski, 2008 S. Michigan Ave., at the home of his wife's sister at 3117 Normal Ave., late Wednesday night. The intended victim of the mob had shot and killed his wife. Commenting on the incident, Chief Garrity is said to have made the statement that this outburst of violence could be traced to the psychology given birth by the frequent lawless attacks upon Negroes. Modern "Ku Klux" To Face Kidnapping Charge COLUMBIA, S. C., Sept. 29.—When W. D. Mayfield, James Brennan, and Henry B. Sandifer, all white, and wealthy farmers, of Bamberg county, took the law into their own hands and went into the state of North Carolina and seized two colored men, former tenants on the farms and returned to this state when them for some alleged offense, they committed the felony of kidnapping, according to the decision of Governor Cooper, of this state, who honored the requisition asked by Governor Bickett, of North Carolina, and ordered the white men to be returned to that state, prisoners. The case had its inception some months ago when requisitions for the colored men were asked by the South Carolina governor. When these requisitions were refused the white farmers boldly went into the state of North Carolina and seized the men in question, taking them back to South Carolina. Today they, themselves, are in custody, facing the charge of kidnapping. Travels Alone at age of 112 CRIPPLE CREEK, COLO, Sept. 29.—Although she is 112 years of age, Mrs. Sarah Chambers successfully made the trip to this city from Vernon, Texas. Mrs. Chambers is alert and active and able to manage her own affairs in spite of her ripe age. Arkansas Farmers Form Organization PINE, BLUFF, ARK., Sept. 29.—The Jefferson County Negro Farmers' Assu. has been recently organized here for the purpose of promoting the welfare of the Negro farmer W. B. Jackson was elected president and T. D. Hill, secretary. The association is affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 2nd, 1920 RAIL MEN IN NATIONAL MEET HERE International Benovolent Industrial Ass'n Holds Annual Convention at Armory The Railroad Men's International Benevolent Industrial Association, headquarters at 3441 Wabash Ave. convened Tuesday morning at the 8th Regiment Armory, 35th and Forest Ave. in their Seventh Annual Convention. The association convened amid gala scenes and was welcomed to the city by representatives of the various departments of the State and City governments. Congressman Martin B. Madden delivered the address of the afternoon session, picturing in a detailed manner the progress made by the Railroad Men's Association and the many beneficial things to be accomplished by them in the future. (Continued on page 6.) MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., Sept. 29—The arrest in this city late last week of Tom Shepard, of St. Paul, brought to fight the activities of a ring of drugs and whiskey smugglers who have made big profits operating across the Canadian border. Shepard was arrested on Sixth Ave., So., between 5th and 8th St., and had at the time $2,000 worth of opium and morphine in his possession. Shepard had bought the drugs in Winnipeg for $25 and an ounce and was in the habit of selling them in Minneapolis for $125 per ounce. Shepard's arrest was followed by the arrest of Beacher Zeebs and Puss Rhodes, also drug smugglers. At the same time Emil Craft, 408 Carrol Ave., porter on the Great Northern Winnipeg train was taken with a suitcase full of Scotch and Canadian whiskey. All were lodged in jail. West Indies To Gain By Trade Agreement With West Indies To Gain By Trade Agreement With Canada NEW YORK CITY. Sept. 29.—Plans for preferential by the dependencies of Great Britain, and recent reciprocal agreements between Canada and the West Indies will "greatly enrich the inhabitants of those dark islands to the hurt of the United States," according to statements made by Wall Street bankers today. It is claimed that such agreements will divert much trade that should "naturally" flow into the United States. "White House" Maid Dies KNOXVILLE, TENN. Sept. 29. Mrs. Florence Smith, of this city, formerly a slave of Andrew Johnson, president of the United States in re-construction days, died last late week at her home on McGhee St. Mrs. Smith was in the employ of the Johnson family when Johnson was a tailor and went with the family to Washington where she served as a maid in the White House when Johnson was elected president. Dies From Assault CHARLOTTE. S. C. Sept. 29. David Johnson died Tuesday at the County Hospital here, from the effects of a fractured skull, inflicted by John Streeter, three months ago. The coroner's jury held Streeter for murder. FREED BY CORONER TO BE RE-ARRESTED ON WARRANT Slayer in Gambling Quarrel Held By State's Attorney In Spite of Acquittal by Coroner's Jury Charles Golden, 4745 State Street, had the first preliminary bout of his day in court on Monday afternoon at the Fourth Precinct Police Station, 48th and Wabash Avenue, when the Coroner's Jury discharged him for the murder of William Johnson, 2968 Prairie Ave. Golden's hopes were soon blighted, however, for he had no more than a deep breath of pure air when a policeman approached him, reading to him a warrant, charging him with murder. Liberated By Coroner's Jury The shooting at Johnson which occurred September 17th, had attracted unusual attention and the newly improvised court room was filled to overflowing. One eye witness of the shooting, a Mr. D. C. Clark, 4721 Dearborn St., testified that he did not see the first shot fired but he did turn in time after hearing the report of the gun to see Golden fire the second shot into the body of Johnson after he had fallen to the pavement. (Continued on page 6.) Lovers Proposed, But Judge Haas Disposed When Isaac Morgan, 500 E. 34th St. and Mrs. Levetta Johnson Calhoun, 3257 So, Park Ave. decided to cast their fortunes together, it was mutually agreed between the two that Morgan should buy the furniture and lease the flat under his own name. The two occupied the flat at 3108 Rhodes Ave. for one year. Then domestic discord arose and Morgan proposed to Mrs. Calhoun that they should terminate their affair de coeur. To this Mrs. Calhoun agreed, but insisted that she be given her share of the household goods. A search into the records revealed the fact that the two had overlooked the detail of marriage in their haste to establish their little home. Therefore Mrs. Callioun could not substantiate any claim by right of dovery. It was then that she contended that Mr. Morgan was only a roomer at her house. Judge Haas, however, disposed of the case by ruling that Morgan was entitled to the household furniture, inasmuch as his name alone appeared on the contracts for purchase. Free lover—take warning. Acquitted Of Murder Charge CHATTANOOGA, Teen, Sept. 29, —R. T. Trice was acquitted of the murder of Claude Jones within 15 minutes of the time in which the jury received the case. His acquittal was based largely upon the fact of his good character, which was testified to by many reliable witnesses of both races. Atlanta Man Mysteriously Slain ATLANTA, Ga., Sept. 29—George King, an employee of the Cecil Hotel, here, was found dead in a clump of bushes, near the Brown's Mill Road, last Friday. Post-nortem examination showed that King had been shot through the head. Police authorities are puzzled over the cause of his death. County Fair A Success JACKSON, Tenn., Sept. 29.—After a week of very pronounced success, in all of the various departments, the Annual Madison, County (Colored) Fair, which has been in progress at the West Tennessee Fair Grounds, came to a close here this week. A number of creditable exhibits in live stock and agriculture were put on exhibition by numbers of our group. RAILROAD MEN IN CONVENTION LABOR QUARREL ENDS HOLDS ONE-MAN BULL IN MURDER MOOSE CONVENTION What is believed by the police to be a quarrel over labor questions as relating to the Negro problem, caused the death of James Marshal, white, a labor agitator, at the hands of an unidentified colored man Thursday afternoon at the corner of 39th St. and Cottage Grove Ave. There were no direct witnesses to the shooting, and an instant after the shot was fired, the neighborhood was in such an uproar, that even the police could not determine exactly what had happened. The white man was found lying in front of the saloon of James Blake, at 3862 Cottage Grove Ave. In the meantime the colored man had made good his escape in the crowd that instantly gathered. No trace has as yet been found of him. Marshal was taken to the Michael Reese Hospital where he later died. Marshal is said to have a police record. Freed On Unwritten Law BENTONVILLE, ARK, Sept. 29 — Hobart Claypool, colored, charged with the murder of L. D. Gray, was acquitted of the charge in the Benton County Circuit Court late last week. The defense rested upon evidence that Gray had been intimate with Claypool's wife. At a previous trial the jury had been unable to agree upon a verdict. 5CENTS PAY NO MORE EIGHT PAGES FROM L UNDERW POSED IN CONVENTION HOLDS ONE-MAN BULL MOOSE CONVENTION SACRAMENTO, CAL. 29 John W. Fowler, colored, of Oakland Progressive candidate for assembly man from the 39th District, held a state convention all by his "lonesome" here last Tuesday, being the only per- son who qualified as Progressive party delegate in the August primaries. After calling the convention to order, the lone delegate proceeded to appoint committees. To perpetuate the organization the lone delegate then appointed himself to the State Central Committee and adjourned without a dissenting vote. EXTRA A lone colored bandit entered Salk's Restaurant, 3102 State Street at 3 a. m. Wednesday morning and held up the cashier, Henry Hoy, (white.) Hoy refused to obey the bandit's command to throw up his hands, and was shot three times.. There were about 7 customers in the restaurant at the time. The bandit escaped with $50.00 in cash. Hoy was removed to the Michael Reese Hospital and died Wednesday noon. His murderer is at large. Mrs. Johnson? If you have seen Mrs. Johnson, the mother of D. J. Johnson, who disappeared from her home at 208 N. Artesian Ave., notify the WHIP. Mrs. Johnson is an elderly woman and may be lost somewhere in Chicago. The broken hearted son and his wife appear in the photograph. --- PRICE FIVE CENTS AIR OF WORLD LURED FROM HOME INTO VICE Englewood High-School Girl Rescued After Six Days Imprisonment In Vice An affair that should be a sharp lesson to parents of young children as well as to children themselves, came to a dramatic and tearful climax Monday afternoon when Obrie Moore, age 28. 33 W. 31st St. was taken in custody and booked on charges of seduction and contributing to the delinquency of a female minor. Upon request of the parents of the young girl, her name is withheld, as its publication could serve no good purpose. Runs Away from Home On Monday, Sept. 20, a 15 year old Englewood High School girl, whom we shall call Aunna for contemneried became angered at some action of her mother, and ran away from home, ostensibly leaving for school. Anna did not go to school, but went to a restaurant near 29th and State Sts., and obtained employment as a waitress. Anna worked until late Monday afternoon and then went to the open air park at 33rd St. and Wabash Ave., to a public dance conducted there. She Meets Moore At this park, where innocent young girls rub elbows with crooks and prostitutes, Anna met and was engaged in conversation with Obbie Moore, known to the underworld as "Kankakee," who persuaded her to go with him to his room at 33 W. 31st St. "Kankakee" rooms in Flat 5, 4th floor, at the 31st St. address. Anna went with "Kankakee" to his room, and according to all evidence that can be obtained, stayed there with him until the following Sunday, six days. Parents Inconsolable When Anna failed to return from school Monday afternoon, her parents became alarmed, and instituted a search for her. The police were notified, and the Keystone Dective Agency was put on the case. No trace of the girl could be found until Sunday afternoon, when she was found, again at Community Park, 33rd St. and Wabash Ave., this time by her father. She was taken home where she was questioned and persuaded to reveal the name of her seducer. Moore Apprehended Monday afternoon. "Kaukakee" was apprehended by Keystone operatives, and protested complete ignorance of the entire affair until confronted by the girl, her mother and father, and the police at the offices of the Keystone Detective Agency at 31st St. and Indiana Ave. A tragic scene was then and there enacted. The tearful and broken-hearted mother, the angry father, the humiliated and disgraced daughter, all faced the deprived denizen of Chicago's underworld and laid at his feet the wreck of a human soul. As he finally admitted that he had kept the girl in his room, her father could no longer restrain himself, and flew at Moore in an uncontrollable fit of anger, and could hardly be held by the police. Upon Moore's confession and the girl's testimony, he was taken to the Cottage Grove station and booked, and held for trial in the Morals Court. Texas Co-Operative Stores Meet With Success GALVESTON, TEX., Sept. 29. At the recent stockholders meeting of Merchants' Co-Operative Stores, held here at the Wesley Tabernacle, 28th St. and Ave. I, it was revealed that the stores up to date have met with unparalleled success. Plans for the further sale of stock were considered, and it was announced that additional stores will be opened on the cast and west sides of the town. Officials of the organization are: A. A. Williams P. J. Mack, John Lewis, T. Ellis George Harris, and others. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP The southern white press urges the white women of the South to outvote the colored women. This more than satisfies their readers who are desirous of keeping the Negro from the gaining political power. The Illinois Central Railroad has been Jim Crowing colored people leaving out of Chicago for the South. This is both illegal and dastardly and the political leaders with influence should bring pressure to bear on the officials immediately. The continued attack upon the Japanese in America and the apparent determination to prevent them from further entrance is an example of American democracy. Democracy as it applies to dark races can only be found in the dictionaries. As has been pointed out by the Messenger, the Crisis is very stingy in giving credit or even consideration to any race organization other than the N. A. A. C. P. and little or nothing has been said of other public institutions who are fighting the battle of the race with methods less reactionary than their own. The newspapers very seldom get a favorable comment and evidently to the editor of the Crisis they are not progressive; some of us feel the same towards the Crisis, but we give credit where credit is due. Since Roscoe Simmons has purchased a newspaper it is trusted that the paper will contain something more constructive than his vituperative speeches. The Chicago Commission on "race relations" has sent out a series of foolish questions, also an appeal for funds. It is hoped that the money will be well and wisely used. We don't need any questioning bureaucies, however. The "Fair," one of the largest department stores in Chicago, recently refused to serve a colored lady in one of their lunch rooms. Let those who are segregated and Jim Crowed in Chicago bring their grievances to the office of the Whip and they will obtain attention. UNCLE "EPH". NCLE EPH says that we are threatened by a serious social threatened by a serious social dilemma, which in the ultimate end affects our every move whether industrial, commercial or economic. This evil in its many ramifications reaches from our firesides to the very height of our business and professional activities. No race group can make effective progress unless aided and abetted by strong and virile morality of its women. In part we have this and only in part. Hence we are weakened in our efforts to obtain been obtained by other race groups. The fact that we are without the support of a strong self-concious racial morality among our women is due to various causes, chief among which is the economic problem and this economic problem is largely due to the unpreparedness of most of our women. To make such preparations as will enable them to secure an honest livelihood without jeopardizing their honor and respectability. Thus in the great struggle (being wholly unprepared), to obtain such necessities of life as are required by our excessive manner and mode of living a large number of our women are forced to enter lives of commercial activity which threatens and destroys the real morality of the race. Unfortunately for the newcomers who are constantly urbanizing to large cities, they find themselves thrown into the turmoil of a reckless and abandoned social environment and usually become amenable to the influences of other women whose manner of obtaining a livelihood is to profit at the expense of the virtue and inexperience of the late arrivals. So it is that the buffet flats and polite parlors of entertainment and pleasure becomes the headquarters and social environment for hundreds of well-meaning girls who have no other means of obtaining those things which they deem essential in keeping up with an age of extravagance and greed. No group of men can be stronger from the standpoint of morality and intelligence than the women with whom they associate. Therefore, if the women think and reason in terms of cafes, buffet flats and dance hall life, the men will of necessity become patrons of those engagements. This poison thus affecting the stream of the most vita medium of our racial progress threatens the entire activity of our race group and blights our hopes in obtaining our proper place in the formation of racial responsibility. The inroads which are now being made on the morality of our race through the agency here complained of, are social cancers which must be treated effectively or else disaster will follow. You know "Fighting Bob," Jackson. I know you know him because he is always smiling at everybody everywhere. We mean the "little" alderman. Well, he is doing some real constructive work. His Co-Operative Groceries (two of them) are doing real business. That's the stuff that counts, too. BROWN-SKIN DOLLS ON SALE Mrs. T. G. Williams, Chicago representative of the Berry & Ross Co. manufacturers of the famous Brownskin Dolls, announces that she now has a full line of these favorite toys on sale at 3321 State St., and that she is offering an attractive inducement in the way of prizes for the children of Chicago. Such a doll makes an ideal Christmas present for a child of our race. Don't fail to get one for your tot for Christmas. Come and see the latest creations of the Master of Toyland. TO THE YOU KNOW 'EM EDITOR Read this letter: Dear Sir: Referring to your column, August 12th, fourth paragraph, I beg to say that whenever I was seen in the back room of a saloon it was pertaining strictly to my business. However, I thank you for your advice and beg to say that it will take up all of your time to look after your own business and home without looking after mine. (Signed) That Supposed Society Girl. All right, girlie, but we still wonder what "business" you have in the rear room of a saloon. N. B.—The funny part of it all is that this letter was not in the hand-writing of the lady we had in mind. "You can't tell how many dogs you'll hit when you throw a brick in the crowd." I wonder if you know that lady who wears the tan suit, well, if you do, just tell her that Mrs. A's friend told us to tell her that she had better leave Mrs. A's husband alone, or she may get another black eye, or lose another pocket book at 35th St. and Indiana Ave. You know that divorce scandal that we were talking about and that was to break soon. Well, keep your eyes open. It's almost here. You know the Old Pekin Theatre, which has more lately been known as The Beaux Arts Club. Well, they have reformed at last. It is being used now as a convention hall for some kind of a "bible institution." Well, they say, "if the light holds out to burn, the vilest sinner will return." Oh, you peek-In. You know that 35th Street photographer. They call him Mr. Woodard. Well, he really knows what to do with a camera. If you don't believe us, look at some of the work he turns out. You know those newspaper men that are always knocking other papers. Well, don't mind them. Their star has reached its height and is now on the decline. Oh, you profiteers. It takes brains to run a paper now-a-days, and brains will out last money. You know that doctor that is constantly driving around in the evening with a strange lady in his car. Well, I wonder if his wife has gone to the country. Don't get mixed up on the date of her return. LET SPRINGER DO IT.

NOSEY was of the impression that he was hard to look at with his long nose and other marks that are supposed to disfigure one but recently Nosey is constrained to change this opinion about himself. He has changed because as he passes along the street now he notices that ladies sniff at him, others wink others give a little tilt to their head which seems to invite him to come along while others openly say "Hello Dearie." Now, Nosey knows that his looks have not changed so therefore something else must have happened to make Nosey so acceptable to the ladies. The friends of Nosey seem to think that the City Hall and the Police Department are responsible for the attention of the ladies. ONE of the sure signs of prosperity, as far as our folk are concerned, is the small amount of goods in the Pawn shops along "the Stroll." Nosey dropped into a few of the Pawn shops the other day and noticed that the racks and cases were just packed and jammed. Goods of the Household Variety even down to False Teeth could be seen, to say nothing of the rings that have recently been seen on the fingers of those who love to "try their wrist." Maybe they don't know it but Nosey knows it, that the Panic is almost here, and if these people don't get to work there sure will be a snow eating contest along "the Stroll" this winter. ```markdown ``` EVERY DAY the mail brings Nosey letters telling him where to go to see the sights and where the "real doings" are going on. The latest one was a telephone call the other night from a lady who is complaining about her Drummer Boy who had wandered away to new pastures (white pastures), after she had taken sick and lost her good job. She wanted Nosey to go "out on Prairie Ave, and catch the little Drummer Boy and the little Pale Face High School Girl as they argued over the weeks net results. But Nosey has sense and he did not follow the "tip" and neither did he go to the Chinese Restaurant at Indiana and 35th St, that has recently become the popular rendezvous for the Midnight Vamps and their victims who wrangle over their Chop Suey and other matters. Nosey didn't go but old Uncle Eph shuffled around and maybe that explains the fact that he limps a little more than usual now. Nosey has your number, "Drummer Boy." ```markdown ``` SOME PEOPLE have a hard time finding their mate. Nosey got a letter from C. L. D, and he was really singing the blues because he could not tell anything about the ladies. He couldn't tell the young ones from the old ones and he had no means of telling the good ones from the bad ones. He is sure of this last part because he took a little lady out to the theatre and she showed him where the Cabarets and the Hooch could be found. But worst of all, when he took the lady home he was surprised to find that she was not only married and had children but that her husband opened the door and let her in and it was then he found out that it was the lawyer who had just gotten him out of a scrap with another "stroll vamp." He still wonders "how do they do it?" Where are the good old girls of long ago? CITY BRIEFS THE CHICAGO WHIP HIT BY STREET CAR HITT BY STREET CAR Curtis Washington, age 21, 3424 Wash- ington Ave., sustained lacerations on the left temple two indies long by bringing his head into violent contact with a passi- ging street car at 31st St. and Indiana Ave., September 24th. He was given first aid treatment at the Provident Hospital. SALOON FIGHT Willie Jones, age 28, 3618 State St., while in Dan Frank's saloon, which occupies the ground floor of the above mentioned number, was stabbed in the chest, making a wound six inches long, by John Payne, 3124 Washah Ave. Too much home brew was said to have occasioned the assault. VIOLA SHOOTS WILEY Hawkins Wiley, age 38, said to reside at 4042 Dearborn St., was shot September 20th at 3658 Indiana Ave. by the charming Miss Viola Robinson, 3653 Indiana Ave. Information, leading to the cause of the shooting seems to he meagre in the extreme. It was intimated, however, that the fair Viola discovered Wiley tampering with her affections—he will recover. STABBED IN THE LEFT SIDE William Douglas, age 28, 1623 Washah Ave., was stabbed September 20th several times in a controversy with a man whom he had only known as Dr. Honey. The cause of the assault could not be learned. STRANDED FIELD Ct. Walter Jackson, age 86, wandered into the city to do his early fall purchasing of the loot, baggage, Il. Not knowing just how to locate the "loop" he got tied up in the rear 2721 State St. While trying to get out he was strick over the head with a revolver and relieved of much of his cash. After receiving first aid treatment at the Provident Hospital, Walter said that he would do his Christmas shopping at home. RIOT VICTIM DIES Alonzo Jackson, reported to reside at 420 Indiana Ave., who was heaped up by a mob at 41st St, and Emerald Ave. during the disorders on last Monday night, died from his wounds at the County Hospital on last Friday. Inquiry at the place of his reported residence revealed the fact that Jackson had charged his place of residence and his home could not be located. APPOINTED HIGH SCHOOL MATRON Mrs. Dora Johnson, 324 State St, was appointed matron at Wendell Phillips High School. Her appointment came as a result of a desire on the part of the powers that be to improve conditions for the pupils. Mrs. Johnson is a capable woman and will be of exceptional ability in solving many problems which arise at this particular school. SHOOTS at Poolroom Owner James Kalston, age 40, proprietor of a poolroom at 740 E. 45th St. miraculously escaped death, September 20th after being shot at several times by an unknown to be held, attempted to hold him up. Gentleman is a guardian escaped THE ANCIENT ORDER OF UNCLE TOMS Uncle Tom was the famous character that Harriet Beecher Stowe created in her wonderful novel entitled Uncle Tom's Cabin. This book is supposed to be one of the most popular novels ever printed and it has been circulated in every civilized land and has been produced in every modern language. It carried a strong anti slavery propaganda and was one of the vital forces that destroyed the institution of chattel slavery. Uncle Tom the old slave still lives in the United States. Yes, he is with us today with his half-man physiology his hung dog look. Uncle Tom had none of the fighting spirit of the Aborigine Indian, none of the stoicism ```markdown ``` YOU know that the WHIP has moved its offices to their five-room suite at 3420 SOUTH STATE ST. ST. and I guess you know that when they get through decorating and putting in their new fixtures that they will have one of the most up-to-date offices in Chicago. There is only one thing left to do and that is on the way—install their Printing Plant. Nosey heard them talking and from what he can gather they have already ordered some of the machinery. Nosey knew they'd do it but he didn't expect them to do it so soon. VICTIM OF Riot Assault Louis Smith, age 28, 4558 Wabash Ave. was severely injured on the night of September 20th at the Wabash R. R. Station, by being assaulted by a crowd of white men. Smith was treated by Dr. Charles Smith, 4066 State St. He was rescued by Officers Monroe and O'Connell of the Fourth Precinct but none of his assailants were arrested. STRUCK BY AUTO Leonard Brimage, age 26, 5242 State St. rear, while riding a bicycle, was struck by a seven-passenger Cadillac car owned by John W. Banks 3852 State St. Brimage sustained severe injuries and was removed to the Provident Hospital. The accident which occurred September 20th happened at 53rd and Wabash Ave. Miss Ida Long, age 35, 21 E. 47th St. was injured when a car in which she was riding, operated by Bailey Banks ran into an auto owned by Dr. Henry Harlan, 29th and State Sts. The car occurred at 4th and Dearborn, 1:45 E. 135th and number 24th Miss Ida Long was attended by Dr. Majors, 47th and State Sts. BUTCHER EACH OTHER Miss Rosa Brooker, age 46, 4753 Federal St., and Miss Elizabeth Eckles, 5327 State St., endeavored to settle a dispute said to have involved the association of a certain gentleman in an amiable way. Finding that they could not adjust their differences they resorted to arms, one having a butcher knife and the other a pen knife.

Uncle Allen Johnson, age 80, died September 22nd at 2529 Dearborn St. He is said to have been a veteran of the Civil War and an do have relatives some- where in Toledo, Ohio. For further in- formation, write The Chicago Whip. STRUCK BY CAR Mrs. Ruby Beedles, 3435 Prairie Ave. was struck by an automobile Monday evening at 55th St. and Wabash Ave. estaining severe injuries. The car was owned by Sam Kaplan, 634 N. Clark St. and was said to have been running at high speed at the time of the accident. Atty. Julius Jones, member of the law firm of Clanton, Clanton & Jones, 2 E 31st St. has returned home after a three weeks' visit in Victoria, Texas, and Okmilgee, Okla., at which place he was the guest of relatives and friends Atty. Jones spoke in hopeful terms of the progress being made by our people throughout the South and West, but said that in many quarters he found hundreds of them making preparations to settle in the North and Northwest. This urbanity, he said was brought about by reason of the inhuman treatment they received at the hands of the Southern white man. of the Spartan and he was the embodiment of servility and humility. Uncle Tom was the embodiment of weakness, he was a typical Slave Uncle Tom had no real virile characteristics. He loved his master and trusted him implicitly. He had no selfassertiveness, he possessed a simple soul and a simpler mind. Why should the spirit of Uncle Tom still live after fifty-five years of freedom and qualified liberty? Why should the bowing, scraping, cringing crouching character still survive. Uncle Tom's spirit, like the soul of John Brown, still goes marching on. Uncle Tom has become a little more creative and less conscientious. Uncle Tom of today knows better but he is very avaricious and will a same any attitude that will bring a few dimes. Uncle Tom is now in politics, he is in business. Uncle Tom is also a preacher and can be found in the churches. Yes, he is also a doctor, a lawyer and many are public speakers and editors. Uncle Tom is a school teacher, he is a waiter and a porter. In every walk of Negro life you will find Uncle Tom the slave. We have decided that the Uncle Toms of the Race should be united into one order and that order shall be known as The Ancient Order of Uncle Toms. We treat the cases of the individual members separately and distinctly. In our next issue we will deal with Major Robrt R. Moton, Grand Exalted Potentate.

The STAGE CRITICISM IS ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL TO PUBLIC MORAL AND PUBLIC TASTE Now Open DeLux Cafe 3503 S. State Street. EVERY NIGHT Remodeled--Redecorated HOWARD'S NOVELTY JAZZ ORCHESTRA from Columbus, Ohio. will furnish MUSIC MUSIC P. DAVE PEYTON Composer, Musician, Critic Vaudeville and Movie Review. "THE GRAND" "Town Top-pikes" the big New York production, is still drawing capacity houses, this organization will break all records at this house, no show in the past has drawn such business. It is ordinary to see the same people two or three times a week. "This is the third week of the show and Monday night the sold out sign went up long before curtain time. Brown and Galliport will evidently fill the gap made vacant by the late Geo. Walker, and as a real comedian Galliport has no rival. He does more than one thing, he can sing, dance and humorously deliver his lines, and I mean it, when I say he has no rival. Brown, who does the straight, is up-to-date in style and mannerism, and really feeds his partner. One of the novel features of this show is the well trained chorus, in some of the song numbers they simply take the honor away from the principal. In the Shimmie Kate Number, a rather large young lady is a distinct attraction with her comedy dancing, and causes the number to be encored four or five times. Another young lady named Dink Thomas does the same to the Creole Gal song. Gertrude Saunders, the dainty little soubrette, is an artist in song rendition, and adds imensely to the evening's entertainment. Miss India Allen, in the mother role, is very good, as is Miss Freeman, one of the young lady songsters. Don't miss seeing Little Ida Fortson do her dance a la Russian, and Miss Lewis do the buck dance, and by all means see the Hawaiian Shimmie. This engagement is limited and I advise all to see this wonderful production. "September, Morn," with Shelton Brooks, will close a successful engagement at this house on next Saturday night. We hope for good luck for Mr. Brooks and his company on their eastern trip, and will welcome the great comedian on his next season's appearance. The Famous Latayette players will return Sunday, October 3, in "The Crimson Alibi." THE MONOGRAM Margaret Ward, the race's clever little character actress, is the prime attraction here this week. Her work and costumes are something of interest, and something that is seldom seen here. Other good acts on the bill are Grant and Perkins in a class by themselves, and Trina Smith and Billie Nichols, a very clever singing and comedy offering. THE MOVIES THE STATES Coming Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Pearl White in "The White Moll." PLAYER ROLLS Columbia Records THE PICKFORD Coming Sunday, October 3—Dorothy Dalton in "Half an Hour." THE PHOENIX Coming Sunday, October 3—Dorothy Dalton in "Guilty of Love." THE VENDOME Coming Friday and Saturday, October 1-2—Roscoe Arbuckle in "The Round Up." With the Actors. SYLVESSTER RUSSELL Mr. Russell, the worlds greatest critic, is somewhat peeved because of the fact that Medellin Thompson is not a member of the "Town Top-Pik" show, and that accounts for his unfair criticisms. I don't see what a man is thinking about when he takes a stand like that against public sentiment which has declared the show one of the best yet seen. No it is the ignorance of Russell who is supposed to be educated. Most everything that is attempted by Negro performers he severely knocks instead of encouraging them, which will in time perfect them, and as the actors have seen fit to solicit my services in conveying to the public the motive behind Russell's onslaughts, I will from time to time keep them well posted. We have got to dethrone this little king and I will undertake the task. Get next week's Whip. DAVE PEYTON. Tom Cross, the actor, is much improved and will be out on the stroll shortly. Green and Bailey will leave over a Western Vaudeville route next week, traveling to the coast. Miss Alberta Hunten has severed her connection with Shelton Brooks Co. at The Advance. It is rumored the musicians will walk out on October 11th. The colored boys have never been properly paid for what they deliver, and I think their demands will have to be met sooner or later by the Manager' Association. Cleo Desmond and Andrew Bishop will triumph at The Avenue next week. Canary Cottage will move east with its stellar attraction. Old-Time Darkies left on their route last Sunday.

The offer has been rejected, and an ultimatum was issued Tuesday night, threatening a strike of all musicians to become effective Sunday night. The theaters involved are the Grand, Vendome Phoenix, Avenue, Owl, Atlas, Earl and States. The Monogram acceded to the demands of the association. LAFAYETTE PLAYERS RETURN NEXT WEEK Patrons of the drama will be more than glad to again welcome the return of the Lafayette Players to the Avenue Theater in the spoken drama, and a more interesting vehicle could not have been chosen by the management than "The Crimson Alibi." The very title is alluring, holding a charm of the uncanny, the mysterious; that the play is an excellent one is understood when it is announced that it is from the fertile brain of Octavus Roy Cohen, and that it was dramatized by George Broadhurst, who needs no introduction to American theatergoers. "A darkened room, a flashing knife, a muffled groan—the deed is done; no noise, no clue, no sign of strife, the baffling mysteries begun. A Sherlock Holmes, a master brain, an opera writer, quite reflective; a form fit coat, a dressy cane—this, readers, is our great detective. J. Quincy was a bad old guy, a crabt, a reprobate, a nagger. The point is—he came to die, who killed him with a silver dagger? Professor Bristol came along. My God, I'm going to be suspected. Our sleuth, however, says he's wrong, the guilty man will be detected. Young Quincy on the fatal night was wild about a girl and drinking. He spoke about a certain fight which set our wily sleuth a thinking. The butler was a shady chap; he'd quarreled with his murdered master. It seems he's in an awful trap—solutions started coming taster. But wait!—the sweetheart of the maid had sworn to kill the murdered blighter—escapes from jail and mairraid—it took three cops to get this fighter. Now you see you, good people all, that things are getting pretty messy; but nothing could our sleuth appall his coat and came remained quite dressy. In fact, that last act came along, matters still were quite upsetting; the reason that the bunch was strong was most of them were even betting. Now here's the mystery, oh! my! At which a Sherlock Holmes would stagger. The point is—how he came to die—, who killed him with the silver dagger"—(Joseph Schrank.) To tell how the story ends would spoil its interesting effect, but all four acts are crammed with thrills, and then, too, you're going to enthusiastically welcome your favorite Lafayette Players, among them being Cleo Desmond, Elizabeth Williams, Edna Scottran, Evelyn Preer, Ivy Hubbard, Andrew Bishop, John INVE Do Not Invest Your Money Johnson, Ga Incorporated Capital $20,000.00 The object for selling this stock present one that profits DO NOT $10.00 Will Buy Send In Y JOHNSON, GAM 3607 The Famous Com TWO WONDERFUL ACTS The Supporting Cast Includes GERTRY Edith Wilson, Ruth Allison, Olivia 35 Capable Artists One Show a Night at 8:15 Two on Sundays, 6 and 9 P.

There is not a more worthy institution in the city nor is there one more deserving of consideration from the general public. With a city growing with the rapidity that Chicago is, it is quite necessary that a home to maintain and provide for the young colored girls and women of good character who come to this city often without friends, relatives or money, to seek employment, should be provided. Migration from the South has greatly increased the need of this home. This Home has been supported by donations from the general public. $10,000 would place this Home on a self-supporting basis and also make it possible for the accommodation of more persons. At present the space is limited and does not nearly meet the demand. The Phills Wheatley Home is at 3256 Rhodes Ave, and the officers there will be glad to give any information or receive any donations there at any time.

We value the careful and vital interest to every citizen of Chicago, and especially to colored people, it is expected that the Commission will address its accomplishments.

CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY LEADS The Co-Operative Society of America seems to be leading all other organizations of its kind in the state. While other big companies like Swift and Armour Packing Company are floating new bonds to carry on their business, the Co-Operative Society of America is calling in and paying cash at 102 per cent on all outstanding bonds two years and three months before they are due, thus proving itself to be in the best financial condition. We do not wonder that they are selling now over 5,000 memberships a day, as there is a great rush to buy memberships before Oct. 1, when the shares go up, and the quota will be gone under the present grant.

PROTECTION AGAINST: An Independent Newspaper Published Every Week R C 09 F THE WORLD OF SPORTS The fans of Schorling Park are in for a rare treat Sunday when the Chicago Giants go to bat with the strong industrial league team from Racine, Wis. Following in the footsteps of many of the big automobile and other industrial corporations, the Case Co. has put out a baseball team composed entirely of former big industrial league team from Racine, Wis. Following in the footsteps of many of the big automobile and other industrial corporations, the Case Co. has put out a baseball team composed entirely of former big league players. and they have been tabbing a world of success this season, having played quite a big league team, and coming out with dying colors. The leaguers will meet a formidable foe in the Chicago Giants as at recent constituent, for Green's recent acquisition of classy material to his roster gives the local pastimers a first class look in with the heat in the land. Luther, considered the class of pitchers who heave from the south side of their anatomy will display his warts and the fans will be given a grand opportunity to give the up and down to the work of the south paw who create such a situation down East the last season. Beckwith, the lad whom the fans around the current consider the heaviest clatter in captivity, is in grand form and his last show eyed evidence that he will knock the tawn of the south side fart and hop a whirl ahead of all our famous but swimmers that is, as fat as the long distance clotting goes. The twelve inning play of the Giants against one of the strongest teams in the Chicago league should serve as a foreword as to what the order of the day will be when the Green banch toe the scratch with the all-leaguer aggregation. There will be no other baseball game on the south side, so the advance reservation has assumed gigantic proportions, the followers of the Racine team coming in for huge blocks. The game is called at three of lock and that should afford all ample time for comfortable accommodations. STARS CLEAN UP MIS SOURIANS DETROIT, MICH. Sept. 29 — Detroit Stars made a clean sweep of the series by taking the last game from the St. Louis Giants, 8 to 7.

COLORED CANADIAN TEAM KNOXVILLE DOWNED IN PROMINENT UNDERTAKER RETURNS TITLE GAME BY CHICAGO WINS GOVERNOR'S CUP The great aggregation of colored ball players who played out the franchise at Winnipeg, Canada, this season are back in the states and will finish the season in and around Chicago. The team will play this Sunday at Appleton, Wis., and the roster looms up as a tormidable foe for anything pastiming around this section. The club is headed by Sam Gordon, a veteran player and manager and he brings a string of conquests annexed through British Columbia, the North West part of the States and Canadian provinces that ring much like a big time performer. Singer, the crack college athlete from Zanesville, O., stood the north country populace on their heads with his flashy work the past season. Ewing, the youthful catcher whom Rube Foster grabbed from the Massillon, O., club last spring, received, pgged and slammed the horse hide with effect while Reed, pitcher Scotty, Pate and other important cogs in the machine, functioned up to a degree of perfection that was highly satisfactory to the Canadian backers of the team. Gordon is a product of Coropolis, Pa., and underwent the baptism of fire overseas as a Lieutenant, with the famous 370th infantry. He and Bob Gilkerson were brought on to the west about twelve years ago and both have been highly successful as players and managers. Gordon will operate a club in Canada in 1921 and is planning a sooting trip through Penn, Va., and, while it is said many diamonds in the rough await the polishing process. The Winnipig Giants, as they are dubbed done sixty graves, winning forty-five and loosening fifteen. They covered the entire northwest, going as far as Vancouver, B.C. Twilight ball was the fashion and overflow crowds the rule. The players are boosting the Canadian country as a fertile spot for the activities of the colored follow in baseball, so no doubts exist over the class of the gang that Gordon will cart up there for next seasons show. KNOXVILLE NO MATCH FOR CHICAGO BIRMINGHAM, ALA. Sept. 29—Puhe Foster's Giants had little trouble in rumming away with a 7 to 2 victory Thursday last. Maddox, the one-armed marvel, again stood out as the bright shining star for the Southern champs, rapping out a terrific triple to deep left in the sixth and scoring on the catcher's error. Maddox got two hits out of four trips and made two pretty catches in center. Erratic throwing, especially by the catchers, marred the game. Knoxville made six hits off Dave Brown while the Foster outfit slammed out 12 off Force. R. H. E. Chicago (D.

The Windy City outfit and outplayed their adversaries at every stage of the game and had the Knoxville club shut out until the final inning, when three hits coupled with an inexcusable miscue gave them three tallies. Lennie Williams was opposed on the mound by Tom Williams, and the latter had his Southern opponent bested in keeping his bingles scattered with men on the cushions, besides Tom was very effective with the willow and was instrumental in driving in two of the runs which aided his victory. Undoubtedly, the outstanding feature of the contest was the work of Maddox, the one-armed outfielder of the Knoxville club. Maddox accepted several difficult chances and handled himself as well as any of his teammates. The deciding game will be played Friday and the Knoxville management has secured the services of Roderiz; the Cuban wonder late of the Black Barons, to oppose the hard-hitting Giants and it is confidently expected that Roderiz will be returned a victor.

American Rape of Railroad Men in Haiti Exposed Session 6 (Continued from page 1.) istration by Herbert W. Seligman who was in Haiti at the time I was and by myself, both Mr. Seligman and myself writing in The Nation. Although a number of newspapers demanded explanations from the Navy Department, no word was published in denial or extenuation until Senator Harding reiterated them. The Secretary of the Navy is reported to have characterized as unjust the statement that thousands of natives in Haiti have been slaughtered. Will he dare to say it is untrue? Or will he rather attempt to characterize the people who were shot down as bandits—men who were defending their country against armed invasion? "There has been ample time since the charges were originally made against the Administration's and the National City Bank's invasion of Haiti for some word about those charges to come from Haiti. So far as I know no newspaper in this country has published any news or any communication from Haiti. "We do not need an investigation by officers subject to the present Administration so much as we need direct and open communication, openly arrived at, between the Haitian people and the American people. Then it will appear who were the bandits in Haiti." Officials of the National City Bank yesterday declined to discuss in any way the alleged controversy between that institution and the Government of the Republic of Haiti. Roger L. Farnham, Vice-President of the bank reported to be in charge of its affairs in Haiti, is out of town on vacation it was said, and John H. Fulton General Executive Manager, sent word to newspaper men that he had "nothing to say." Jury Exonerates Mother in Law Jury Exonerates Mother in Law (Continued from page 1) tween her and her husband she en- deavoured to explain that the unpre- paredness of the evening dinner was due to the fact of his homecoming being earlier than usual. Assaults Wife Her explanation did not seem to satisfy Henderson, who began the assault by striking her several blows in the face, and ordering her to her room. As a result of the fight, she is said to have fainted and some one of the other roomers weed out to hunt her mother, informing her of what had happened to her daughter. Mother-in-law Appears on Scene Mrs. Anna Brown, the mother of Mrs. Henderson, hearing of the assault, hastened to the home of her daughter, finding her lying prostrate across her bed, severely injured, and Henderson sitting on the edge of the bed with a knife in his hand. Mrs. Brown made some preliminary inquiries as to the cause of the trouble, as a result of which, Henderson, packed his grip and ostensibly left the building. He returned, however, to the rear of the house, threatening to enter and kill his wife. Mrs. Brown, upon hearing him, said she went to the pantry, where she found a gun. Taking it she went to the rear, warning Henderson that if he entered the building again she would shoot him. Her admonition did not stop him however, as he attempted to pass her and enter the house. She fired two shots with deadly effect, and Henderson died before reaching the host nital. Coroner's Jury Frees Mother The coroner's jury sitting at the Cottage Grove Ave. station Thursday morning heard the testimony from the various witnesses who were present at the time of the tragedy and after careful consideration of all the facts, justified the killing of Mr. Henderson, telling the defendant to go in peace and sin no more. The Hendersons are formerly of Birmingham, Ala., and have been residents of Chicago for six years. Golden Held to Grand Jury Golden Held to Grand Jury Golden's Testimony Golden, after being told of his rights by the Coroner and after he had been admonished of the fact that whatever he might say before the Coroner's Jury might be used against him in the event of further prosecution of the case, upon the advice of counsel, agreed to testify. He said that on the night of the homicide that he had been shooting dice in a club house located at 4662 South State St. and that he had gambled in this club on several occasions but that on this particular occasion he was accosted by Johnson who requested the loan of a dollar. His refusal to comply with the request resulted in Johnson becoming extremely abusive and drawing a gun and making three attempts to shoot him. The gun failed to fire. He was persuaded to leave by friends but seeing Golden a half an hour later in front of 4704 State St Johnson approached him in a threaten attitude. It was then that he pulled his gun and fired two shots both shots taking deadly effect. The Coroner's Jury heard the testimony turned Golden loose. He was immediately rearrested by the Police Department. CURED HIS RUPTURE I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk several years ago. Doctors said my only hope of cure was an operation. Trusses did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed and the rupture has never returned. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a complete cure without operation, if you write to me, Eugene M. Pullen, Carpenter, 205-G, Marcellus Avenue, Macquarie, N. J. Better cut out this notice and show it to any others who are ruptured. You may save a life or at least stop the misery of rupture and the worry and danger. (Continued from page 1.) Pres. Mays In the Chair The convention was called to order by the International President, R. L. Mays of this city, surrounded by other International officers, including R. C. Wright, financial secretary; Dr Midian O. Bousfield, corresponding secretary; J. E. Monroe, International al treasurer; J. E. White, general counsellor; S. A. Cochran, first vice president; of Illinois, and C. J. Berard, 2nd vice president; A. Bland third vice president, DeQuincy, La. A. S. Peters, fourth vice president Denver, Colo.; and A. E. Storum, fifth vice president, Philadelphia, Pa. President's Address President Mays delivered a masterly address, reviewing the progress made by the association during the past year and explained in detail the light made by him to place a member of our group upon the Wage Commission at Washington, D. C. He pointed with prophetic finger to the future possibilities of the association and dwelt with a keen sense of pride and feeling upon its present accomplishments. He said that no organization among our group has accomplished as much for the amelioration of the conditions of the working man as the International Association of R. R. Men. The president's sentiments are testified to in many ways. Physically, the associations through the energetic offices has purchased a valuable piece of property at 3441 Wabash Ave., and has organized 154 Locals in various parts of the country whose representatives are in direct contact with every problem and affecting the interest of the railroad men of this country. Through the manifest interest, courage and deep convictions of President Mays, in his travels throughout the country, preaching the doctrine of unity and solidification, this institution has become the most effective organization for industrial good in the United States.

Phillips, former special agent for the Frisco lines, was arrested and jailed on charges of carrying a pistol.

They were safely placed in the state prison. The men had been imposed ponies and their waves insisted by John hoodlums.

Urge White Women to Outvote Colored At Polls WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 — Democratic political managers have found it necessary to organize a campaign in all southern states to persuade white women to appear at the polls in the November elections and outvote the colored women who will support the Republican ticket. It is teared in all quarters that the colored vote will be so heavy as to break the "solid ivory South" if white women do not rally in support of the democratic ticket.

THE CHICAGO WHIP Gothamite Runs Amuck; Stabs Three NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 29. George Williams, age 31, 427 W. 53rd St. went wild and ran amuck in 54th St. between 9th and 10th Ave., late last week, brandishing a long butcher knife. Before he finally took refuge in a tenement in 10th Ave., near 52nd St. he had felled three men. The first one of the wild man's victims attempted to retaliate with a brick, commonly known as an "alley apple," but the missile went astray and crashed through a plate glass window in a 54th St. store, thus adding to the general excitement.

Wilkins because of their close connections with large financial interests have secured 200 steam Heated, Electric Lighted Apartments in the choicest localities of the South Side. These Apartments will be ready for occupancy Oct. 3rd, Oct. 16th and Nov. 16th. MR. Manns and Mr. Wilkins have also made arrangements for ten more large apartment buildings which will be ready in the near future and these additional apartment will make rents for rooms and apartments come down. Applications will be received at once. PEOPLE who are expecting to come to Chicago from other parts of the country will do well to write at once for reservations before coming and thus avoid spending their life's savings for a high priced piece of property on which they will not be able to meet the payments and in the end lose all. MR. Manns, being a real estate expert, advises the colored people not to buy property at present at the high prices as these prices will be much lower in the near future. It would be better to put your money in the bank and keep it there until prices become normal.

The Race Commission's Foolish and Insulting Questions The Chicago Commission on Race Relations which was created by Governor Lowden, after the Legislature of Illinois refused to consider such an institution, has started on a "Crusade of Question." These questions have been sent through the mails to "prominent citizens." Other letters have also been sent asking for funds. The Commission asks this surprising question: What to your mind, is the distinction, either in point of view or definite racial aim between segregation and racial solidarity? This "question" is not only a foolish question, it is highly suggestive and far-reaching. We would not in this enlightened age ask what is the distinction between chalk and cheese. We would question the state of mind of an individual who would ask such a question. We now query why the "Race Commission" should ask such a question. What is the distinction in racial aim between "Racial Segregation and Racial Solidarity"? Evidently some gentlemen on the Commission seem to think that there is "no" distinction. If not! why such a question? The "Race Commission" must have thought the contention of those gentlemen was meritorious, evidently. They send out letters asking public opinion upon it. The Commission's state of mind is the inspiration for this editorial comment. In the Commission's mind the idea of segregation seems to lurk. It lurked in the mind of its noble founder, Governor Lowden, who sent down to lynch-ridden Georgia to get their plan. This idea again creeps out sinister and insidious, segregation. Whether the framer or the framers of this question refer to compulsory or voluntary segregation we are not prepared to state. We have even heard of a kind of segregation by agreement. We do know that there is no "racial aim" for segregation of any kind. To the contrary there is a definite aim to prevent it. It will not be tolerated by the "newer groups" who realize that racial expansion can not and will not be confined to geographical limits. The Negroes of Chicago are "planning" to put their business enterprises in the loop and their homes wherever they please and they do not please to be huddled together conglomerately where the white man is inclined to dump their profiteers and profligate in "black belts" and then place the badge and stigma of inferiority on those who dwell therein. Every kind of segregation by and of Negroes has failed to allay prejudice. We cite Georgia where segregation exists and lynching is on the no-grade. Race solidarity is to the Negro what cohesion is to ice. It is the binding propensity. It binds the race together politically and economically. It creates race finance and pride. It is the result of a psychic condition or state of mind. It is more mental than physical. Segregation is more physical. It is a physical separation whether compulsory or arbitrary which is not even tangent to race solidarity. Those of the Race Commission who have been invigiled into any fallacious idea of segregation should immediately study the question and cease further insult or intimidation by their inaction in permitting such senseless and pernicious questions. If the secretaries have been given plenary powers to ask questions they should be informed upon the vital issues and should be advised to use their time asking real intelligent questions and not in meaningless insinuations. Preparedness For The Coming Economic War According to immigration authorities at Ellis Island, foreigners are coming into this country at the rate of 3,000 per day. The majority of these immigrants who have been wisely termed the "Scum of Europe," will locate in the industrial centers of the northern United States. The advent of these aliens will affect labor conditions in these centers profoundly. The Negro laborer will receive the hardest blow because he is doing the common labor today. The majority of the foreigners are illiterate and are unskilled laborers. The market for unskilled labor will be flooded to the utmost. The supply will be greater than the demand, and wages must necessarily decrease. Unless some unforeseen contingency arises, unskilled Negro labor will be thrown out of employment and in turn will be replaced by aliens. We are led to this conclusion for two reasons. The aliens, although illiterate and semi-civilized, are white. In addition to this they are more easily organized and assimilated. There is no question that the Negro has made good in industry. Labor statistics prove that at all times he has done as well as his white brother. In many cases he has excelled him. This, however, is not relevant fact. White men are coming to this country to escape European tyranny, persecution and exploitation. The Negro is coming North to escape the same and worse conditions in the South. White men who have tasted of American freedom and opportunity until they have imported the last one of their kin to share this American heritage. Negroes who likewise have tasted of this "Qualified" freedom and opportunity are equally determined to live in America to bring the last black face out of that veritable hades—the South. The realization of the aims of both groups will create a tremendous problem. It will require suffering and sacrifice to effect the solution, but let us hope that none among us is so blind, and none is so small who will not recognize the nobility of the aims of both the foreigner and the American Negro. Again, it appears that the Negro will be the greatest sufferer because he has become thoroughly Americanized, and has become accustomed to a higher standard of living than the alien. He has not taken advantage of his new environment in the North and organized himself economically and industrially, neither has he identified himself to any large degree to any existing industrial and economic organization. But to the contrary he has allowed himself to be lulled into a false sense of security by the "hokus pokus" philosophy of designing and selfish "misleaders" of his own race. Therefore, with these handicaps he can less afford a slump in wages and unemployment than the alien. This is one of the many crises that the Negro has been forced to face. Through immeasureable and inexplicable endurance coupled with the aid of philanthropic friends he has managed to survive. It is trusted that in the coming "labor strife" and money panic that he will be able to adjust himself to the situation without serious embarrassment or inconvenience. The Chicago Whip, as representative of the New Negro, is not so much interested in getting out of situations of this kind as it is in avoiding getting into them. Proof of this fact can be found in an editorial appearing in these columns of May 29th, entitled, "A Sinister Warning." In that editorial we predicted a great tide of immigration and its advantages and disadvantages. Let us not grieve over the mistakes of the past, but let us arm ourselves with a new determination for the future and begin a program of thrift, scientific organization and general preparedness, that will stand the acid test of time, and the bombardment of prejudice and adversity. LEGAL HINTS TO WOMEN By Violette N. Anderson, LL. B. All questions asked by women concerning their legal or domestic rights gladly answered. Address Woman's Column—The Whip. My husband came home drunk last week and beat me unmercifully. Can I get a divorce from him? Yes, if he has done so before—if that is the first time he has been cruel to you, no. You should have had him arrested. The law provides a penalty for wife-beaters. My husband has sued me for a divorce because we married within one year of a former divorce. Can I get alimony and solicitor's fees while the case is pending? No. He is not suing for divorce, but annulment, and that marriage is illegal, therefore, you cannot obtain either alimony or solicitor's fees. I married in Indiana less than a year after I had secured a divorce from my first husband. I have had two children by this last marriage. My husband now is suing for an annulment and I have been told that I can do nothing, and that my children are illegitimate. Is this true? Unfortunately and to the everlasting disgrace of the Illinois legislative body, this is true. Now that women are a moving factor in the law-making machinery you may rest assured this evil will be corrected. You violated the law of Illinois, as did your last husband, but your innocent children should not suffer. If he refuses to support them consult a lawyer. You can secure support for them. I waited one year before marrying my husband, whose first wife divorced him. We married in Indiana and came here to live. Last week she had us arrested for adultery. Can we be punished since we waited the full year? It depends what the first wife secured the divorce for. If it was for adultery on his part she can prosecute, otherwise not.

ALL PHONES CANAL 2948 CHICAGO CARELESS USE OF COSME-STICS IS DANGEROUS Many years ago women looked upon on the use of toilet preparations as a luxury to be used by the wealthy and as a confession of super-vanity and they were used to no large degree. But today toilet articles are among the most rapid selling articles on the market and women have learned to look upon them as necessities more than as luxuries and to regard their use as aids to preserving their God-given beauty rather than as confessions of super vanity. With the increasing demand for preparations to preserve and enhance our natural charms have come many miscellaneous manufacturers who have entered the field purposely to play upon what they believe to be human weakness and feminine vanity and have placed upon the market preparations that have but little merit. In fact, very serious cases of skin eruption, enlarged and distorted pores, discolored pigment and even blood poisoning, have been known to result from the use of this class of preparation. The skin and scalp are among the most important parts of the body and should be treated with diligent care. Unfortunately, they are about the most neglected parts. It is only by constant care that one may hope to have a beautiful completion, and only by selecting preparations of merit that one may hope to preserve that which nature has given us. In selecting preparations for the care and treatment of the skin and scalp the utmost precaution should be taken and only such preparations selected as will bear chemical analysis and that have a reputation for quality and effectiveness. Fifteen years Madam C. J. Walker's Superfine Preparations for the hair and skin have stood the most thorough examination and enjoyed a reputation for high quality and effectiveness and these preparations are safely recommended by men and women all over America and in 20 foreign countries as ranking high among the very best on the market. They are guaranteed by their manufacturers to produce no detrimental results and it used as directed will do all that is claimed. It is recommended that you use Madam C. J. Walker's Wonderful Hair Preparations for the hair and Madam C. J. Walker's Superfine Preparations for the skin. The nearest Madam C. J. Walker agent will be pleased to supply you or a very liberal trial treatment will be sent anywhere upon receipt of a dollar and a half. Address the Madam C. J.
