GEORGIA SHERIFF INDICTED FOR PEONAGE PRICE 5 CENTS "A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY Read, Think and Act MASONIC OFFICER HELD ON CHARGE OF BRIBERY VOL. III.—NO. 13 JURY INDICTS DIXIE SHERIFF FOR PEONAGE JURY INDICTS DIXIE SHERIFF FOR PEONAGE Federal Grand Jury To Investigate "System Worse Than Slavery. ATLANTA, Ga., March 23. Declaring that the peonage situation in Georgia is a challenge to the conscience and civilization of the state, District Attorney Alexander of the Federal department of Justice, announced that the federal grand jury will institute a searching investigation into the system. The grand jury will meet April 4. May Solve Drowning Mystery It is thought that the investigation will solve the mystery of the two dead men who drifted ashore chained together by their necks and weighted down with stones. These men are thought to have been victims of the peonage system around Coyington, Ga. Sheriff Indicted for Peonage. The grand jury recently made an investigation of peonage charges in Jasper county admitting Newton, and returned indictments against Sheriff Persons, of that county, and his nephew, W. K. Persons, on charges of peonage. Their trial has been set for April 4. SENATOR McCORMICK WOULD STOP LYNCHING SENATOR McCORMICK WOULD STOP LYNCHING Senator Medill McCormick, of Illinois, has proven his friendship to the black man and his profound interest in humanity at large by introducing a bill in Congress to stop lynching. Without making a lot of noise, as many politicians do, in order to gain the black vote, the Illinois Senator has quietly studied the history of this crime and the ill effects it has had upon the nation as a whole. "We must devise some machinery," said Senator McCormick, when asked about the anti-lynching bill, "to mobilize, organize, and give expression to the public opposition to lynching. So far as I know, there is no means under the Constitution by which the National Government can take action, except that which it is purposed to take under my bill. The press during the last two years has printed a sordid and almost monotonous chronicle of lynching and mob violence. There are men of both races to blame. Political demagogues of one kind or another have exploited or oppressed the negro. I am concerned to assert the supremacy of the law. That can be done only if the monotonous state it. The bill introduced by Senator McCormick would create a commission to have plenary powers to investigate in all parts of the United States the causes of lynching and to report to the President and the Senate the same with remedial suggestions. To Appropriate $100,000. The bill provides for the appropriation of $100,000 for the use of the commission to employ such assistance as is necessary. This sum is to be immediately available, and will remain available until expended. The commission is also to have power to summon witnesses whenever it sees fit to testify before the commission. This phase of the commission's powers will no doubt make possible the exposure of this crime in certain parts of the South where it is now impossible to obtain such testimony. The commission is to make its final report not later than Jan. 1, 1922. MRS. RHODES HOLDS TENANT FOR MISUSE OF GAS Mrs. Jennie Rhodes, 3638 Grand Blvd, was found guilty of stealing 500,000 feet of gas from the People's Gas Light and Coke Co., Friday in Judge Chas. M. Thompson's court. She contended that a tenant in her building at 3344 Wabash Ave., was responsible for the misuse of the gas, and her attorneys made motion for a new trial. Hearing on the motion was set for March 26. Mrs. Rhodes was released on $3,000 bonds. Mrs Rhodes is a sister of Jack Johnson. Politics Fails to Gain Immunity For 19th Ward Gunmen. 19th Ward white gunmen found that political influence carried no weight in Judge Fetzer's court March 18th when they were arraigned on complaint of Mr. and Mrs. Escrow McClain, 496 Indiana Ave. Mr. and Mrs. McClain noticed that the men had followed them from the Dreamland Cafe on the night of February 16. Mrs. McClan was wearing a large amount of jewelry, and fearing robbery, the stopped with her husband on the Ponchartrain Hotel, 47th and State Sts. The gunmen stopped also. Upon the first opportunity Mr. McClain called policemen, who arrested the men and found guns on them. Frantic efforts to have their cases discharged through political influence failed, and they were fined $200 each. They described themselves as Jacob Goldfish, Samuel Denckner, and W. S Chamberlin. JOY-RIDE ENDS IN DEATH; EXPOSES ILLICIT LOVE JOY-RIDE ENDS IN DEATH; EXPOSES ILLICIT LOVE Harrisonburg, Va., March 23—An illicit love of several years' standing was exposed near here last week when the Grim Reaper overtook Mrs. Mollie Flick (white) on a joy ride with her alleged lover, Charles Byrd. Mrs. Flick was found lying unconscious in the road by a deputy sheriff. She regained consciousness just before she died, but refused to divulge her assailant or the manner in which she was attacked. Her skull was fractured. Charles Byrd has been held to the Grand Jury as her murderer. Love Letters Found An examination of Byrd's car is said to have yielded love letters written by Byrd and the Flick woman, also telegrams from her to him, telling him to meet her at various places. At the inquest, the dead woman's husband testified that he had found a picture of Byrd in his wife's possession. It is thought that both occupants of the car were under the influence of liquor, and that Mrs. Flick fell out of the car fracturing her skull. ALDERMAN ANDERSON HONORED IN THE WEST ALDERMAN ANDERSON HONORED IN THE WEST Los Angeles, Cal. March 23—Unusual and peculiar honors were showered upon Alderman Louis B. Anderson, of Chicago's 2nd Ward when he visited this city last week as a member of the transportation committee. Mayor Snyder, of Los Angeles, appointed a special committee to entertain him. The daily papers were especially generous in commenting on his presence here. While in the city he was the guest of his sister-in-law, Mrs. E. E. Barr, 1351 30th Place. HENRY FORD'S PAPER WILL NOT BE ALLOWED ON SALE IN ST. LOUIS ST. LOUISE, Mo., March 23—An order prohibiting street sales of the "Dearborn Independent." Henry Ford's publication, will be issued here tomorrow, Chief of Police Martin O'Brien said today. The sale, by criers on the streets constitutes a law violation, punishable under defamation and criminal libel statutes and he disturbance of the peace ordinance, Charles H. Dause, city counsellor, ruled today. THE WEATHER U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRIC CULTURE AND FISHERY BIRFIELD Forecast for the period of March 19 to March 26, 1921. For the Ohio Valley and Tennessee the region of the Great Lakes and the upper Mississippi and lower Missouri Valleys: Generally fair; temperature considerably lower than during the week just passed. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, MARCH 26th, 1921 "Life, Liberty, And The Pursuit of Happiness" THE BAYWINDOWS GOV. MORROW IN FAVOR OF AUTOMATIC REMOVAL TO FIGHT MOB LAW Frankfort, Ky., March 23—Speaking about the recent lynching at Versailles, Gov. Morrow told newspaper reporters that an automatic removal law which allowed no appeal was one of the prime necessities in checking lynching. He said: "Of course I do not know the facts as to the conduct of the jailer at Versailles," said Governor Morrow, "but the lynching illustrates the need of making the anti-mob act really an automatic removal law. There should be no means of appeal for reinstatement where a peace officer surrenders a prisoner to a mob, but do you know we had to fight at the last Legislature to prevent the anti-mob law being passed with a provision under which the peace officer removed by the Governor might appeal to the local courts for reinstatement, thus throwing his case back into local politics." The Governor's offer of $500 for arrest and conviction of each member of the mob is the legal limit. It is believed at least fifty men participated in the lynching. The Governor expressed satisfaction at having received finally, the formal request from County Judge Mulcahy, without which he could not offer the reward. GUARD KILLS RUM BANDIT. WOUNDS PAL One of two (white) liquor bandits was killed and the other wounded Saturday in a battle with the watchman, Carey Mason, age 54, 2524 Dearborn St. The fight took place in the plant of A. M. Adler Co., 4010 S. Dearborn St. Mason was making his rounds when he discovered the two bandits in the act of making their entrance. His first shot missed effect, and the bandits hit him hitting over the head with their guns. Finally Mason seized an opportunity to fire point-blank at one of the bandits, the shot piercing his skull. The other one then fled, but not before he was winged in the left shoulder. Mason's wounds are not serious; he was placed in Mercy Hospital. This building, located at 4117—4119 Lake Park Ave, Chicago, U. S. A., the country which claims to guarantee to its citizens "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness", was bombed Saturday morning, and its occupants thrown into consternation. The building was bombed for no other reason than the complexion of its occupants. As far as those people are concerned, that 'off repeated clause might as well have been left out of the Constitution. GOES TO DEATH SMILING AND SMOKING BIG CIGAR GOES TO DEATH SMILING AND SMOKING BIG CIGAR GONZALES, Texas, March 23.—With an air of nonchalance Albert Black, convicted on a charge of attack, and sentenced to hang, faced eternity with a smile on his face and a big cigar in his mouth. His last words were: "Gentlemen, this is caused by running in bad company. I am not guilty. Joe Nations is the guilty one, but the law has to take its course. Goodbye everybody." Nations was his partner in the crime and was tried at the same time and given a 99-year sentence in the penitentiary. This was the first hanging to take place in this county for 23 years. WHITES LYNCH MAN FOR KILLING COLORED WOMAN WHITES LYNCH MAN FOR KILLING COLORED WOMAN HATTIESBURG, Miss., March 23. —Reports reaching here from Walthall County concerning the lynching of Arthur Jennings by white men in revenge for the murder of a colored woman are arousing much comment. People of this section are unable to interpret the motives of the lynchers if the report is true. Was it because of some clandestine relation of the woman to one of the lynchers? Was it mere bloodthirstiness on the part of the lynchers? Or was it because the South is forsaking her old policy of protecting white womanhood and has gone to protecting all womanhood? The question will probably remain unanswered. The jailer is said to have been overpowered and his keys taken from him Jennings body was found hanging from a tree next morning. BOOTLEG EXPEDITION LANDS THREE IN JAIL; TWO IN THE GRAVE NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 23—Three survivors of a bootleg expedition into the country near Cottontown, near here, are in the county jail, and two white men are dead as a result of a mysterious quarrel over the liquor. The three colored men in jail are Dan Cannon, the driver of the bootleg car, Glover Dunn, and Milton Hayes, all of Nashville. The two dead men are Sank Wilks, white, of Nashville, and Thomas Mitchell, white, a farmer of Cottontown. The jailed men tell conflicting stories of a fight between the two white men over the price of the liquor. They were brought here by Summer County officers to escape probable mob violence. STAR BOARDER, BUT NOT OUALIFIED AS BANKER To be a "star boarder" is one thing, but to hold the moneybags is entirely a different proposition, according to neighbors of Mrs. Cornelia Everett, 20 E. 44th St. William Monroe was conceded the enviable position of "star boarder" in Mrs. Everett's home, but when he attempted to assume management of her financial affairs, trouble broke out. When the smoke cleared away, Mrs. Everett, who is 35, was found to have an ugly stab wound under her left arm. She is at the Ft. Dearborn Hospital Monroe is now boarding at the expense of the people of Illinois at the County Jail. CO-OPERATIVES TRIUMPH OVER BRUNDAGE Atty-General Brundage's petition for an injunction to restrain the Cooperative Society of America from further selling stock (memberships) was denied in the state courts late last week. The attorney-general sought an injunction on the grounds that the company had not complied with all provisions of the "blue sky law." The company answered that their organization as a common-law trust relieved them of this necessity. EIGHT PAGES Uses Cane Instead of Checks To Draw Money. BIRMINGHAM, ALA, March. 23. — Disdainting the usual formalities of presenting his check at the cashier's window and drawing upon his account in due form, an unknown gentleman of color employed a heretofore unheard of method of withdrawing funds from a bank. Entering the First National Bank here just before the closing hours when the banking house was jammed with customers, he calmly inserted his hook-shaped cane into the pile of currency, withdrew enough to take care of his immediate needs, and made a hasty departure without leaving sufficient details of description to identify him by. Officials of the bank say that they cannot estimate the loss until a complete check of the books is made. ENGLAND WORRIED OVER AGITATION IN INDIA ENGLAND WORRIED OVER AGITATION IN INDIA London, March 23—Britain today is about to come face to face with a situation in India corresponding closely to the one she now faces in Ireland. The British War Office is attempting to withhold the news from the world, but it is gradually leaking out. The entire country is being stirred by the teachings of an energetic and able agitator, Mohandas Gandhi. He does not advise the use of force, but preaches instead, a native boycott. He tells his countrymen to deal as little as possible with the European invaders; to keep out of the British-controlled courts, to keep their children out of British-controlled schools and to organize courts, schools and other institutions of their own, much as Dail Eireann has done in Ireland. Against this doctrine the Maharajah of Kolhapur protests. He pleads with the British government in India to "abandon its passive attitude and smash the non-co-operative movement." For, he declares, if non-cooperation succeeds "the whole system of ruling princes will disappear." PERSHING FLAYS'BLACK HORROR' AGITATORS PERSHING FLAYS'BLACK HORROR' AGITATORS NEW YORK, March 23.—General John J. Pershing, speaking before a crowd which packed Madison Square Garden Friday night, at one of the greatest patriotic demonstrations here since the signing of the armistice, bitterly denounced persons of foreign birth, who seek the freedom of this country to spread "political and warlike propaganda" to weaken the ties of friendship between the United States and her allies in the late war. The meeting was conducted under the auspices of the American Legion and other patriotic societies as a protest against the recent mass meeting arranged to voice objection to the presence of French colonial troops in occupied Germany described as "the horror of the Rhine." HOUSTON MAN SHOT OVER INSTALMENT SEWING MACH. HOUSTON, Texas, March 23.—When constables went to retrieve a sewing machine from John Felton, who had failed in payment of his installments on it. Felton's wife refused to surrender the machine until her husband could be consulted. When Felton approached the door where the constables were standing, Constable Pat Harding drew his gun and shot Felton through the hand, the bullet passing through his hand and into his hip. At police headquarters Harding claimed that Felton approached him with a razor. The Feltons live at 3117 Gillespie St. PRICE FIVE CENTS CHRIS CARTER TURNSTABLES ON ACCUSERS CHRIS CARTER TURNSTABLES ON ACCUSERS Says He Bribed Detective And Lodge Head Not To Push Case Against Him. ST. LOUIS, Mo., March 23 — Christopher Columbus Carter, ex-pastor, confessed bigamist, slayer, confidence man, lover de luxe, and master crook, has again apparently defeated justice, and turned the tables on the St. Louis police. More than that he has created a scandal which digs into the very vitals of St. Louis business and social life. After his exoneration as the slayer of Editor Cooke, of the Gary Defender & Sun, it appears that Carter worked his way by easy confidence stages through South Bend and Indianapolis, Ind., to St. Louis. Arriving here he posed as salesman for a fraternal regalia concern, collected large amounts of money, and was finally arrested as a confidence man. Charges Bribery. Now comes Carter's startling charge that he paid Addison Logan, a well-known "dick" of St. Louis, and Lester Taylor, Illustrious Potentate of Medinah Shrine, and a prominent business man in St. Louis, various sums of money to stop prosecution. So strong has Carter made his charges that Logan has been suspended from the police force, and Taylor has been arrested for bribery. Carter was arrested March 7 on a tip to the St. Louis police from S. A. Brusselux of the Keystone National Detective Agency. He now charges that Logan told him to put $40.00 in his underclothing to be turned over to Medinah Lodge, in which case the Lodge would not prosecute him. He says that when he was searched at the police station, $40.00, a ring, and a stud were taken from him. When arrested, Lester Taylor was found in possession of the ring. Logan admits giving the ring and stud to Taylor. Carter further charges that Logan offered to "fix" the chief for $60.00. Carter says that he learned the Shrine secrets, by which he ingratiated himself into the hearts of the Shriners, through Taylor, although Taylor knew that he (Carter) was not a shriner. Was About To Marry St. Louis Girl Carter, although a much married man, was about to enbark upon marri- mental seas again, it is said. It is rumored that the "lover de luxe" had become engaged to marry a Miss Clark, prominent in social circles, and head nurse at a St. Louis Municipal hospital. This would have been Carter's fifth marriage, it is said. He is a son-in-law, it is rumored, by one marriage to a prominent Chicago lawyer. THEY HAVE TO HAVE THE POLICE KEEP THEM OUT OF CHURCH IN ATLANTA ATLANTA, Ga., March 23—That passage of scripture referring to "going out into the highway and byways and compelling them to come in" has no application in the case of the Fair Haven Evangelical Christian Church here. On the other hand Rev. Z. T. Pearlsall has obtained an order from the court to restrain certain members from entering the church. It is claimed by the plaintiffs that the defendants, "falsely asserting themselves as trustees assume possession of the church, get in ahead of other worshipers, and refuse to admit the plaintiffs to the house of worship, driving them off without a place to hold religious services." ENTERTAINERS NOW OPEN AGAIN. Judge Kenesaw Landis was given an implied rebuke by Judges Baker and Abschuler in the United States Court of Appalcs Monday when it was held that the Entertainers Cafe, 209 E. 35th St., should never have been closed until the matter had been thrashed out on its merits in the higher courts. It was contended that when Federal agents conducted the raids they had no warrants, and the traids were therefore, illegal. The cafe was opened again for business-Tuesday night.

The HERO then came from above by way of the stairs, however, and ordered a taxi— two taxis—and gathered up the “frag- ments,” leaving some, and drove away. Nosey’s life was not threatened, It was merely the “breaking up” house keeping of State Street's most popular clothier, arb the !"vamp” had helped him by putting out his belongings and his presents. He came down the stairs to keep from going through the win- dow. The gentleman took the “goods” farther down the street to his other apartment as fresh “presents.” May they rest there in peace!

There will surely be some more scandal in that quiet block on Calumet avenue. eae VERY TIME NOSEY goes in E the confectionery on Cottage Grove and “the Southside’s most popular cross street,” he hears some lady of color asking’ for one Joe who either owns or runs the place, The other night a pretty fittle lady rushed in and asked for Joe and the young Greek in charge said that Joe Would not he back till seven-thirty.” The lady looked up and saw Nosey and then told the boy that she wanted to pay Joe the thirty cents she owed him. The boy said he would take it, but the lady got confused and said she would come back. The boy looked at Nosey and mistook him for one of his country- men and said, “They all want to see Joe on private business and must go into Joe's private office, either to get a job Or pay some money. Either Joe is runing an employment office or a loan business.” Here the Athenian winked at Nosey and said, “I don't think that it is either one.

WILLIAMSON UNDERTAK GARAGE GARAGE ONE UNDERTAK BLOCK EMPLOYMENT FOR MANY YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN Will Be Furnished By The Liberty life Insurance Company. As the time draws nearer when the Liberty Life Insurance Company will close its temporary organization and begin to issue policies, public interest in the institution becomes more keen. Those who have and are now investing their money in the stocks are jubilant because they are to see their money at work furnishing employment for men and women of their own Race. They emphasize the fact that of all the investments, approximating a half million dollars, which colored people in Chicago have made during the last year, this is the only one in which they will see their own color filling all the positions from janitor up to president. While the company will only be able to place a limited number at work when it opens its doors for business, it can be plainly seen that in a few years hundreds will be employed where only a score or more serve now. Life insurance is a fast growing and profitable business and is not limited to a few cities or even states, but rapidly spreads over the entire nation, drawing and massing funds that run into the millions of dollars and carrying a payroll that would bankrupt an organization of a limited territory. Laborers, agents inspectors, examiners, clerks, stenographers, messengers, machine operators and numerous other jobs are created by a company of this character, jobs made possible by the wise use of Negro's money by Negroes. All organizations that have welfare work as their motive, realize that the way to keep courage in the virile young manhood and womanhood of the Race is to open to them the door of opportunity. Real men and women do not want charity but only an opportunity to show the metal that is within them. Every stockholder, however small, is opening this door and making it possible to develop business leaders in the Race. The stock is being sold at such price and terms that all who desire to invest in such an enterprise may do so.

N. I. A. met at the Fulton Street A. M. E. Church, West Side. The speakers of the day were Hon W. A. Wallace, president of the Chicago division; Hon. Henry Hodges, of the parent body; Hon. A. Cannon, of the West Side, and Rev. P. F. Gorham, Mrs. Katherine Tillis and Dr. R. Finn, who will both speak Friday, were also present. The Hon. Mr. Hodges said in part that "we had a duty to perform which we owe first to God, to humanity and to the race, and it was incumbent upon each and every member to go into all parts of the world and preach the doctrine of the U. N. I. A., linking up together all of our forces, so that we will in the end free ourselves of all persecution, injustice and hatred and have a home in Africa where we can practice the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man." On Tuesday evening, March 15th the Institutional Church was packed to its fullest capacity to hear the Hon Rey, Dr. George Alexander McGuire chaplain general of the U. N. L. A. The U. N. L. A. band and the Legion were out in full and the Black Cross Nurses and the Juvenile Division were out in uniform, and formed in line of march headed by the band and the chaplain general, the colors floating proudly in the breeze. The chaplain general brought a stirring message from the Hon. Marcus Garvey in which he said that the great leader of the U. N. I. A. expected each and every member of the organization to carry out the program to the letter. He stated that the Hon. Marcus Garvey had great confidence in his people and that just as Moses, Columbus and all the others of the great leaders of the world had accomplished the impossible, so world Marcus Garvey do away with the "in" in impossible and make all things possible. He urged that a greater and stronger bond be made between all of the black peoples of the world, carrying to each the great motto of the organization, "One God, One Alm, One Destiny." Clubs The members of the N. E. R. A. are to meet Thursday, March 23rd, at 129 East 31st street in the Chicago Commercial Institute Rooms at 8 o'clock p. m. An excellent program will be rendered. The public is invited to attend. The members of the executive committee are requested to meet at 7:30 p. m. BASKETBALL Eight Regiment Armory again looms up as the scene of big basketball action, and will house the doings between the Forty Club's cagers and the 9th St. Branch of the Cincinnati Y. The date is Thursday, March 24th, Time, 8 o'clock p. m. The Forty Club basket ball players have just returned from what was considered a successful Eastern invasion, the crew losing but two games out of a dozen. The Cincy five come here reputed to be a tough bunch to conquer, having annexed many victories the past few months over aggregations of acknowledged prestige, as well as high class. "Cum" Posey, the great all around Pittsburgh athlete and Boss basketball player, sends word that their Loondie basketball crew annexed the National title, and that he is now busy shaping things to place the Homestead Grays baseball team in a position where it is possible for his men to play a few of the Negro National League teams, and he believes the Grays can turn the trick on the best of them, and points to his teams showing against the Taylor A. B. C's, some years ago which resulted in a 4-3 trouncing for the Homesteaders. By Walter A. Ellis POSITION OF HONOR The American Beauty Rose Club; (11) Answers On Thursday Evening, March 17th, the Regina Charity Club assisted at Mrs. D.

Lewis Small-Town-Itis Smalltownitis is a disease found in any and every small city and hamlet in the United States. The symptoms are a poisonous tongue, a sharp ear, and both itch for gossip and scandal. Those whom are affected most by it are the newcomers in a locality, who are ambitions, who show a tendency to mind their own business. They will find they are made a garbage can for hum advice, rumors, etc. And if the newcomer does come from a large city they are most always considered crooked in the eyes of the Hick, who will stand off and criticize, and pick associates for them, and if the poor ambitious newcomer does not fall for that line of stuff, well, nothing for him but failure, if prophesy counts for anything. In South Bend we find quite a few cases of this dread disease. Recently a young business firm was taken to task indirectly about their business methods and associates. But allow me to say in behalf of the said business firm, whenever they want advice they will seek an attorney, and the said business firm was old in their chosen profession when they came to South Bend, and are not the object of charity, and ask your patronage on their merits only, catering to the public and to no set of individuals. I thank you—H. A. L. Mr. B. W. Jeffries, of the J. E. McBrady and Co. Chicago, is in the city establishing agencies and is doing very good business. See Mr. Jeffries.—Vamps. Oh, Boy! Maybe you didn't believe it when so many arguments were created throughout the winter of how many colored people were in South Bend. But with the weather that has been here this week, Tribe, as we call them, has made Birdsell street look just like Wabash avenue, Chicago, as heads flung from every crack, window and door. Mr. O. C. Haynes was called to Elkhart, Indiana, Friday, to inspect the first output of the New Frazier Floatless Carburetor. Seemingly a certain young lady has been getting quite a few long distance calls lately. Wonder if they can be on reverse charges? Mrs. Elijah Griffin of Niles, Michigan, who has been on the sick list, was reported by Mrs. Walter Finley and Miss Hazel Boone as very much improved. They motored over. Basketball team No. 2 of the city high school, composed of all colored boys, stated that since Mr. Mill's request that the colored boys be given a certain night on which to practice, (in other words be segregated), they do not enjoy the same privileges of the other white students—not even the benefit of an instructor. If it keeps on at this rate, we will have separate schools like Jackson, Mississippi; Atlantai Ga., and other cities down behind the sun. Handkerchiefs will ruin anything! The N. A. A. C. P. dance will be given Friday night, March 25th, at the K. of P. hall. A big time is assured. The Easter dance to be given by the Robert Johnson Post, American Legion, is to be on Monday night, March 28th. I know you know" the Legionaires. Well, go to it!

Inst. TABLE OF CONTENTS: The Colored Press—The New Era—The Negro's Reaction to the World War—The Negro's Grievances and Demands—Riots—Lynching—The South and the Negro's Negro and Labor Unionism and Holocaust—Negro Problems—The Lyric Cry The progress of the Negro Race in America, its share in the world war, and the day, are factors to be recognized in the interests of national unity and harmony. The Negro has a voice in the Press, and the circulation of two dailies, a doeon magazines and more than three hundred weekles—periodicals published by Negroes, edited by Negroes and written for Through these mediums the Negro gives utterance to his grievances, his aspirations, his demands, in a manner that commands respect and attention of white Americans. To know the Negro you must read his written word, his thoughts as expressed in type and only by the Negro press can a realization of his position in National Life be brought home, and the influences being brought to bear upon him.

THE Olivet Baptist Church Notes— Rev. L. Williams, D. D., Minister The pulpits at the Olivet Baptist Church were filled last Sunday morning by the Rev. E. W. D. Isaac, of Nashville, and the Rev. J. T. Brown of Cairo, III. These divines are conducting the Bible Institute at Olivet for Baptists of the State. In the evening Dr. Williams delivered the second of his series of sermons on religious "Isms." The subject was: "Spiritualism." It was a matchless sermon, and the pastor proved that this cult is a fulfillment of the predictions of the Biblical declarations that before the end of the time there will be wicked spirits in the earth. It is not probable nor possible that a medium could call the dead back to this life, and if it were possible it would be unfair to the dead and unjust to the living. The pastor urged the Christian people to seek comfort for themselves concerning their dead in God's word. The girls of the church lost the game last Saturday night to the girls of the Grace Presbyterian Church, the score being: Olivet, 11; Grace, 13. Nevertheless it was a good game. The next sermon in the series will be on the subject: "Voodooism." All colored people in Chicago should avail themselves of this opportunity, especially those who in any way believe in this Ism that is claimed to be peculiar to our people. Special sermon, "The Resurrection," next Sunday morning, and special Easter music by the choir and the Singing Association. All are welcome. TRINITY M. E. CHURCH 30th.

ROBINSON SPEAKS TO HUGE THRONG AT SOUTH PARK M. E. CHURCH The Sunday afternoon Clubs of South Park M. E. Church held a grand programme Sunday afternoon, March 20, at which time Dr. E. R. Robinson, commonly known as the "Wheel Man" was the principal speaker. For the first time since the church has been owned by black Methodists, it was packed to capacity by whites eager to hear the eloquent gems that fell from Robinson's lips. For one hour Dr. Robinson held his audience spellbound with the history of his great invention which has done more towards solving the problems of transportation than all others combined. Large Contribution. Large Contribution. According to the testimony of the Rev. Mr. Hutchinson, who had charge of the programme the Sunday collection exceeded by a large margin any amount heretofore raised upon a similar occasion. Like soldiers the followers of the great inventor marched up and laid over two hundred on the table.

This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid—enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. Your shampoo is now ready. Just pour a little at a time on the scalp and hair until both are entirely covered by the daintily perfumed preparation that thoroughly dissolves and removes every bit of dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After rinsing, the hair dries quickly with a fluffiness that makes it seem heavier than it is, and takes on a rich luster and a softness that makes arranging it a pleasure. Free trial offer.

EVERY NIGHT AT 8:30 = By Mildred Bryant Jones | Now and then one hears the statement ‘that modern music does not demand that ‘voice receive the long and careful train- ‘ing which the old masters and the world-renowned teachers deem essential for the singer. Such an idea is wrong, The fact that the best modern music ‘does nor demand so much of the voice makes it all the more necessary that the most thorough raising possible should be received. Too ojten the term “jazz masic” is misconstrued into mean- ing the popular and so-called “jazz” music. This idea should he uprooted without delay. ‘The writers of modern songs for the vocal soloist—among them Marry T. Burleigh anc G. N. Chadwick =o not mince matters in demanding. that hoth singer and accompanist be well prepared to perform their gnusical du- ties, ‘The demand may not be so evi- dient to the casual observer, but the real musician is never slow in wnderstanding just what the lack of systematic and complete training on the part of the singer has leit undone in the matter of the best and most satisfactory rendi- tions, ‘There must be no deviation from the statement that one cannot safely adopt a “short cut” method in voice training. A good teacher and thorough preparation are absolutely essential to the real singer.

INSTRUCTIONS FREE! FOR PARTICULARS SEE JOHN DAMES CLASSY BILLIARD & BOWLING PARLORS 322 E. 31st STREET Phone Douglas 1525 Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus apparently awoke at one and the same time and decided all in one breath to stage big things in a baseball way, A. D. 1921. The big city over on Lake Erie, as well as the Ohio River Queen are typical of major league activity, operating always in the largest baseball circles, while Columbus has been ensconced in A. B. comfort for near thirty years in a class just below. Now that the Black man's activities along baseball lines brings the three cities all under one and the same classification, what might be the odds on attendance figures? A sort of a bias slant looks like the Buckeye state capitol against an Ohio river coal-barge, or a Lake Erie ore-boat that Columbus will outdraw its larger sisters by a distance as far as Man O'War could be expected to distance a nine mule in a mule race. The Past Cited We started playing ball about thirty-one years ago down around Ohio, and, while the state is said to house more large cities than any other, or larger cities, which ever the case may be, and has turned out more high class baseball players of color, and has well established claims to other baseball conquests, we have never heard of a really great colored baseball team heading out of that state, unless the last year's Dayton team be cited. Of course, more than a half dozen cities and towns will discredit the claim, but we never heard such natives as Sol White, Dad Johnson, Nate Harris, "Chappie" Johnson, Dave Wyatt, Bill Pierce, Charley Grant or Bob Foots say that they ever heard of or played on one. These fellows grabbed theirs on mixed teams. Redland-Field Will be the home of the Cuban Stars, and this gives Cincinnati a big jump on the playing results, for, with the great prestige of the Cubans, together with home encouragement of friendly fans, and stashed in a domicile of their own, the Cincy entree should set a mighty hot pace. Columbus is expected to show a clean pair of heels to many teams in the league and should get off in the lead. The addition of Loyd, Pitcher Roberts and others of established class will be a formidable factor in the success of the Capitol city crew. Then there is Britt of the last year's Dayton team, and as all around player he has no superior. Columbus is extremely fortunate in grabbing outfielders, Lane and Alexander. The former is a pitcher, infielder, outfielder, and looms conspicuously as one of the foremost clotters on the circuit. Alexander is a clean-up hitter, and should, with the proper coaching, outdo any swatter in the league on clean-up blows. Cleveland's Prospects Cleveland got off to a late start in announcing plans for this year, but got busy all at once and made a ten strike by securing Jim Taylor as manager. The wifey Jim is now scouting for his aids, and that is sufficient to pacify the Cleveland fans and at the same time assure them of a team that will measure right to the best. Jim Taylor bagged the classy material that made the Dayton team the sensation of the circuit last year, and many of them were new faces to the fans. Jim made the trip through the Southern territory with the American Giants last year and has a line on many players that would make a pennant contender of any team. Taylor is one of the famous family of ball players, and while three of his brothers have led big and little clubs. Last year was Jim's first shot as a leader. Cleveland has averted a serious mistake by signing Jim as field general, for his showing last year with new and young material certainly stamps him as a developer and leader of the first water; and if given the proper range at his new post, his work is bound to result in a glaring exemplification of the Cleveland people's judgment in selecting Jim Taylor as their team pilot.

Ed Zink, the Nebraska prairie fire, took the mound in the seventh. Ed's southpawning put an immediate stop to the harvest of coffee-colored runs. Only one run was scored off him. The Beavers garnered only four hits off of Curry, the big dark right-hander, who simply balled them to death. Butler had a big day with the willow. In two times up he smacked a two-bagger and a triple, and it was his triple in the seventh, with Frank Wilson on first, that saved Portland from a shut-out. Score: R. H. E.

DETROIT STARS ORDERED TO REPORT DETROIT, Mich., March 22—The baseball fans of Detroit are making great preparations to give Manager Pete Hill and his stars a royal welcome. Owner Teenny Blount has ordered Hill and his warriors to report in Detroit on Monday, March 28th for their spring training. The Stars will train at Mack Park in Detroit, and will go to Canada early in April, having games booked with London, Brantford and Kitchner clubs of the Michigan-Ontario Mint League and this trip should put the Stars in first-class shape for the opening of the league season early in May. Blount has booked the strongest white semipro clubs in Detroit for the opening games, and the youngsters will get the acid test before the American Giants, A. B. C's and other strong league clubs visit Detroit later on in the season. Manager Hill and Capt. Petway will have twenty-eight men to select from, and there is some very promising material indeed on the Star's roster. The opening date has been changed to Sunday, April 10th, and the fans are all ready making reservations for box seats. There will be an automobile parade, headed by a band of twenty-five pieces, on the opening Sunday, and all fans with machines are invited to join the parade. The Royal Rooters' Club, one hundred strong, have reserved a block of box seats and will make plenty of noise, and a royal welcome awaits the new players. BY "DAVE WYATT" PALM BEACH RESULTS BACHARACHS CLASH WITH FOSTERITES JACKSONVILLE, Fla., March 22. 'A big series of games opened here this week between Redding's Bacharach Giants and Fosters' American Giants. The two teams have met before, tinging up on a series in the east last fall, but the Chicago team downed the New York fellows in a series out west early last summer, thus establishing a clear claim of superiority over the easterners. The players of both teams are in good fighting condition, the majority having engaged in winter baseball. The roster of the Bacharachs reads: Treadwell, Williams, Harvey, Redding, pitchers, Yank, Smith, Fuller, catchers; Pettus 1b; Marcelle, 3b; Lundy, ss; Handy 2b; Pugh, Brown, Shively, Barber outfielders; Hutchison, utility. Rojo the Cuban catcher, and Pitcher Ryan will arrive here this week from Havana. Foster goes into the fray with the same team and line-up with which he won the winter league championship at Palm Beach, Fla. DARBY, Pa., March 22.—The management of the Hildale baseball club have encountered some little difficulty in lining up their players for the coming season, owing to certain New York interests placing obstacles in the pathway of Manager Ed. Bolden. The organization has gone right ahead and have arranged for the use of the Camden, N. J., grounds, which is an ideal spot of easy access; games will be played at Camden on Wednesdays, while home grounds, Hildale Park, at Darby, will be used on Thursdays, Saturdays and holidays. The roster of the team, according to signed contracts, is: Santop and York; catchers Whitworth, Rector, Flourney, Cockrell, pitchers; Allen, 1b; Downs, 2b; Stevens, ss; Francis, 3b; White, Briggs, Johnson, outfield. Douglas and Brooks have also closed terms with Hildale. This club annexed three championships last year as follows: Delaware county and city of Philadelphia, also Pennsylvania state championship, opposed by major league players. PITTSBURGH, Pa., March 22.—Nate Harris, the former great second of the once famous Leland Giants, has succeeded materially in launching a baseball team here. The organization is known as the Pittsburgh Giants and is financed by wealthy and influential business men of this city. I has been rumored that the club has unearthed some plan by which they can stage Sunday contests, and are in the market for high class players, and could make it worth the while for a high grade manager. Harris is Secretary and has launched out into big business for his organization. The Kansas City Demon THE FOOTBALL PLAYER "King" Curry When pitcher Curry carried the American Giants to long extra innings in his initial show here last year, his masterful handling of the situation stamped him as a comer. He seems to have come into his own the past winer on the Pacific coast flinging against major leaguers, for his work has brought him the sobriquet of "King" Curry.

BOXING NORFOLK HANDS WARD KNOCKOUT NEW YORK, March 21.—When Rocky Kansas outpointed Willie Jackson on Monday night last in Gotham City many of the fistic adherents were heard to exclaim that the real match of the evening was the go-between Kid Norfolk the dusky light heavy weight and Fighting Ward. Norfolk is one of the cleverest men in the ring and had no trouble in taking Ward's number. It is believed that he would make short work of such fighters as Bill Brennan, Billy Miske and Bob Martin. Norfolk and Wills are merely waiting for their chance. Illinois, and especially Chicago appears to be all het up now that the time to finally pass upon a boxing bill is near at hand. Divers opinions of fanatics, all with different ideas as to how boxing in this state should prevail has the sub-committee of the house license committee of the legislature burning midnight oil considering the various and many pet hobbies of expert and otherwise bill framers. Ten round, no decision and fifteen round bouts has, so it would seem, about an equal following. The chances are that if the bill goes through it will be framed to conform as near as possible to the New York bill, so that the big eastern city will have no glaring advantage over the western big city in securing the best boxing talent in the and. Kid Norfolk added Jack Ward's scalp to his long list of wins, and may in the near future take a shot at Wills. The Kid is not exactly as hefty as he should be to make a fight against Harry a foregone conclusion, still there are many who believe Norfolk stands a good chance against Wills. Sam McVey and Jack appomson came under attack by the Detroit fight lovers some time ago, and were accused of not trying in a bout, the affair be declared worthless.

After a weary lapse of centuries, men reconsecrate themselves to those very principles for which he died. Where but a pityful handful heeded him then, now there are millions. He shed his blood for the regeneration of mankind, then mankind repudiated him. But from the crimson stain upon the cross, there rose a beacon glow which has shown and will continue to shine as men seek the tenets of righteousness. Easter is again here—one more of the yearly series that run through the Christian life. What does this event mean? What is its significance to muddling humanity as it groups and falters its uncertain way towards the goal of betterment? What quality can be found in that noble and simple life upon which men and women can pin their hope? We humbly hazard the guess that it was that Jesus was a radical. Born in a manger of humble parentage, come of the despised city of Nazareth, a carpenter by trade, he broke through the iron laws of Israel—an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth—and set up a new order of the Golden Rule and The Holy Trinity. It was the first forward-looking spiritual policy of the fettered human race. It meant the unselfish dealing of man to man; the adherence to a stricter code of morality; and the ultimate salvation of mankind through the acceptance of these doctrines. And they stoned Him! Jesus, the Beloved Radical. And the "faithful John" tells us—they took Jesus therefore; and he went out, bearing the cross for Himself into the spot called "The Place of the Skulls, which is styled in Hebrew, Golgatha, where they crucified Him and with him others on either side and Jesus in the midst. There you have it, fellow Christians and crusaders for social justice among mankind! Never faltering in His preachments, true to the ideal that was his mission in life, He reaped the bitter harvest of the ignorance of His own people. He stumbled and dragged up the rock-ribbed slopes of Golgotha and to the cross to which He must be nailed. They had placed upon Him a crown of thorns and now they crucified Him and ran a spear into His side. This was the reward for the radicalism of Jesus and His punishment for preaching against the pagan god of Caesar. And Jesus of Nazareth said: "Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do." Jesus, the Radical clung to his ideal through the "valley of the shadow of death" and out of it came perpetual life and vitality. It should inspire every man and woman in Christian-dom to realize the true meaning of the faith to which they subscribe and should give firmer courage to those of new faith in these new hours. The example of the Nazarene typifies the methods of predatory injustice and stultifying conservatism. Men and women must repledge their faith and shoulder to shoulder push the plane of mankind to the wondrous heights which were revealed to John, when he said: "I heard a great voice out of the throne saying, 'God, Himself, shall be with them and be their God, and He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes and death shall be no more, neither shall there be crying or pain any more.'" To such an end, let us bow our heads and worship upon this Easter Sabbath which commemorates the resurrection of Jesus, the Beloved Radical. TWO GREAT FORCES Some of the most impediments to the black man in America are ignorance and extravagance. Obviously the only manner by which these barriers can be successfully removed is by education and practical economy. The Newspapers and the Churches are the mediums through which the public expect to see the light. Whether they are now looking in this direction the great majority of the common people will find themselves unconsciously influenced by the works and examples of the two great institutions referred to above. In the work of getting things before the public the Newspapers have an excellent opportunity which will prove eminently influential. It is imperative that they form an alliance in the hope of advancing economy and education. Co-operation of the church with the newspaper, and the newspaper with the church will result in conversion of the public to the needs of the hour. Twenty churches in the City of Chicago spend yearly over $75,000 for programmes and pamphlets. These periodicals are published in the interest of the particular parishioners of the churches and in order that they will be fully acquainted with its various activities. In no place in these church bulletins will editorials or current news be found. It is not their purpose. A careful investigation will show that the weekly newspapers published in the interest of black people not only carries the news of the nation, but also of the particular churches who desire this service. The newspaper stands in a position to serve the church and to carry all of their essential news. The standing committees and various subsidiary officers whose names appear in the bulletins and pamphlets would be omitted and the work of the church itself would be put in the foreground. Should, however, the churches insist that this class of news be carried, no doubt exists that the newspaper would carry it for the purpose of joint endeavor if for no other reason. If the churches and newspapers can effect a joint understanding the net saving would be at least $65,000 per annum and the newspaper would have shared the profits with the church and humanity in general. The joint circulation of Chicago's leading weeklies in the city exceeds 50,000. These papers find their way into the homes of our people and are absorbed and digested by the families. The saint and the sinner both will receive the message. Whereas the church bulletin would only reach the members of the church. It appeals to and attracts no other. If it is possible to effect a combination of these two great forces who knows but that the great eviis which exert disintegrating influences upon our city life will be destroyed? A great campaign for humanity can be waged where all will be equal and no tinge of sectarianism and denominationalism will defeat the general purpose. Who Knows? THIS PLACE IS FOR WHITE ONLY!! BLACK MAMMIE OMAR 20 Everybody Loves "Mammy" -- No One Loves Her Son. Legal Catechism By Herman E. Moore, Attorney-at-Law Question—I have been living in a flat for nearly four years. The land- lord has notified me to vacate, although I have offered to pay more rent. It seems that he wants to take the flat for someone else. Can the landlord force one tenant to move in order to rent the flat to someone else? PETER J. Answer—If you never had any agreement for a longer term or for any specific length of time, your tenancy is only from month to month, and the landlord can put you out at the end of any month by giving thirty days' notice to move. Question—The contents of my trunk was badly damaged by water while it was in the baggage room in one of the railroad depots. They gave me a claim form to fill out, which I did. I have written to them several times, but can get no reply. What steps should I take to make them pay me for the damage? Answer—It sometimes takes quite a long time to get correspondence on such matters. I should advise that you follow up the course you are pursuing in taking the matter up with them, and if you do not get some satisfaction within a reasonable time you had better consult an attorney and have him handle the matter for you. Question—I borrowed one hundred and seventy-five dollars at the rate of six per cent interest. All of the payments have been kept up according to agreement for the payment of interest. The party now notifies me that the interest has been increased to seven per cent. Can this be done legally? Answer—The interest cannot be increased during the period of the loan and contrary to your agreement to pay interest at the rate of six per cent. If the time has expired, however, and this is a renewal of the loan, the party has a right to charge a higher rate of interest on the renewal. Question—I bought a piece of property outside of Chicago. I have finished all of the payments on it and have my final receipt. The party promised to send me a deed later. I have written for the deed two or three times, but they have not sent it yet. What should I do? Answer—If the party does not send the deed to you at your request you had better go and get the same in person, if the amount of the transaction warrants the trip to the place; otherwise employ an attorney and let him handle the matter for you. Question—My wife bought some furniture for one hundred and sixty dollars. She paid the sixty dollars cash and agreed to pay ten dollars a month until the balance of one hundred dollars is paid. The furniture man now refuses to deliver the furniture unless we agree to pay the balance at the rate of twenty-five dollars a month for four months. Can we get the sixty dollars back which we gave him when the first agreement was made? Answer—Yes. Employ an attorney and let him handle the matter for you.

Inquiry: I am a constant reader of the Whip, and your column is a pleasure always to read. I am writing you for a little information and advice. About three years ago I had an operation performed at Cook County Hospital. Of course, I have never known the exact nature of operation, but I know a part of my uterus was removed. I know the results from that removal Well, anyway. I have never felt well since. To look at me no one would ever think I see a sick day, as I am very stout. I have severe headaches at times. I ache so often from my head to my feet; my limbs from hip down ache terribly. I don't sleep well at nights. Nearly every morning when I awake my right hand is swelled and I have a little trouble closing it, and so often my hand and arms seem to go to sleep. When I put my feet on the floor in the morning after rising they feel as though a thousand needles are sticking in them. I have a peculiar cramp in my right leg sometimes; it seems to draw the leaders from the inside of my leg to the foot. My back aches constantly. I suffer with a pain in my side, which has been pronounced by several physicians as kidney trouble. I have a roaring in my head and a peculiar dead feeling under my tongue. I sometimes think the removal of my tonsils would be a wise thing to do. What is your advice to me? Thanking you very much for any advice you may give, I am, yours respectfully. Mrs. T. B. Answer—The kind lady did not give her address, so I suppose she desired for me to answer her letter through the columns of the "Whip." My advice to her is that she should consult a good physician and have a thorough examination. By a thorough examination, I mean that she should have a complete physical examination, her blood pressure taken, her urine examined to see if she has any kidney trouble; also her blood examined to see if there is any infection in her blood. There are several things that she did not state in her letter that might have been of help to me in advising her concerning her condition. First, she should have stated her age, also whether she was married or single, also if she has had any children or miscarriages. In regard to your tonsils, the physician that examines you will tell you in regard to the removal of your tonsils. Because tonsils are enlarged does not mean that they should be removed. A tonsil should not be removed unless it is septic; that is, on examining a tonsil and on pressure tonsil, and hence removal of the same is indicated, because the constant absorption of pus will make you feel badly.

Can positively do nothing at all with my husband. Please advise me. Answer: The only remedy that I can see for you, is to go to the court of Domestic Relations and make complaint. If you have been married for fourteen years, you are entitled to a home if he can provide one for you. You must remember that your mother-in-law, is his mother and it he is not able to provide for both of you in the same place, no doubt you would lack many of the things you are finding now in her home. Are you quite shire your lot is harder than you can hear? My dear Miss Anderson: I am nineteen years of age. I married in the South in 1917. My husband and I did not stay together long because of cruel treatment. We went back together and he brought me to a northern city, then he went back south and has been gone two years, during this time came back to the city and left me again after a short visit. He hasn't given anything since he first left and says that he will not give me a divorce, for he doesn't need one. He threatens me if I refuse to remain single.

The Editor of The World's Greatest Weekly says: "I will take what I can get, for I must live." No race has ever evolved from political and industrial slavery under the influence such pussy-footing, Uncle Torn preachments. THE WAVE OF PROSPERITY that struck this country some three years ago has just about spent its force, and as it dies, out it is leaving in its wake a business depression the like of which we have not felt since 1894. From the wild way the price of every commodity soared, and the heights the wage scale attained, it was evident that sooner or later the bottom would fall out of things and in the crash many would be financially hurt. ONE OR TWO RAILROADS have gone into bankruptcy; others have reduced their working force 30 per cent. The steel industry is practically at a standstill. Large mills and factories are working only a part of their force and now the big packers, such as Armour and Swift, have announced a wage cut approximately 20 per cent with time and a half only after a ten-hour day. All of these radical changes were made necessary by the stringent times. Today with great hordes of unemployed men and women seeking work of any kind at any price numbling comes from the heads of unions threatening a general strike if employers insist upon cutting wages. EVERY MAN is entitled to pay commensurate with his work and the general cost of necessities. When sugar was 28 cents a pound and other foodstuffs, clothing, etc., likewise at an almost prohibitive price, wages should be correspondingly advanced. When sugar is down to 8 cents and other things have taken a similar tumble the worker has no justifiable grounds for demanding the excessive wage. How are we ever going to get back to a normal basis if each one refuses to do his part THIS IS NO TIME for rocking the boat. The powers that be are having their hands full trying to keep us out of foreign entanglements. Internal disorder means simply adding fuel to the flames. The public is in sympathy any grounds for divorce? Will I have to go where he is at present? Answer: You might have. See a lawyer. Dear Miss Anderson: I am a hard working man 26 years old and I would like very much to get married if I could find some nice girl who looked at the bright side of life and would do right. I am very lonesome and want a real wife. Would you be kind enough to help me? I do not run around, only go to shows in the afternoon when I come from work. I would like to have someone to greet me when I come from work and have supper for me. Shall look for your answer in The Whip. Answer: This is not a Marriage Bureau and I am sorry that I cannot recommend a real wife to you.
