Thompson is being hunted for slaying Dodson, his white "master." "The American Congo." William Pickens has described this section of the country as the American Coingo, which seems to be the case if the story told about Thompson's slaying his white "master" is true. Dodson was a planter with large holdings in Rankin County. It is estimated that over 300 black men were working for him under the peonage system in a state of virtual slavery. Sold His Freedom For A Hog. The story is told that more than a year ago Thompson bought a hog from Dodson with the agreement that Thompson was to make payment for the hog by working on Dodson's farm. According to Dodson's system of bookkeeping, Thompson has been unable, up to the present, to perform enough work to cancel the debt. Thursday afternoon Dodson went to be a man's caballer to completely reclaim the hog, on the grounds that Thompson's work for the past year had been entirely unsatisfactory. In desperation, the black man drew his gun and shot his "mastir" dead. He immediately escaped into the woods.

Bentley defended him, Read, Think and Act ADS B NO WORSE S"-BRANDED KLANSMEN BIBLE INTEREST IN SCRIPTURE IS ALMOST FATAL cine was clearly demonstrated here Saturday morning when fifteen masked men, alleged members of the Ku Klux Klan, kidnapped Alexander Johnson, a bellboy in a local hotel, flogged him, and branded his forehead with the letters "K. K. K." Johnson was charged with intimacy with a white woman living in the hotel where he was employed. He is said to have admitted that the accusation was true, but retorted that "it was no worse for him to have a white woman than it is for hundreds of white men throughout the South to have colored women." After being seized by the masked Klux Klan, Johnson was taken outside the city tied to a fence by a rope around his neck, and his bare back flogged with a blacksnake whip. Each masked man applied one or more lashes. He was then taken back into the city and released near the hotel where he is employed. FEDERAL AGENTS SWAMPED WITH PEONAGE PLAINTS DAVIS FORCES PACKERS HAND ON WAGE DISCRIMINATION WASHINGTON, April 6.—What appears to be the initial assurance of the attitude of the Harding administration toward the colored race came from the Secretary of Labor when he appeared as the champion of the Negro workers in the stockyards at Chicago. When the conference of employees called by Secretary Davis to meet with representatives of the packers to confer over the labor crisis that was threatened in the packing industry met here, it was brought out that the colored employees engaged in the same work in the yards were receiving about 20 per cent less than those of the other race. This fact was soon made apparent as the conference progressed and immediately the Secretary took the high and just position that this discrimination was un-American and that labor is worthy of its hire and equable consideration without regard to color. The Secretary's contention was insistently and firmly made and finally prevailed, and as a result there will in the future be no deferentials in the compensation of labor for similar service in the stockyards. This will be hailed with very great hopefulness by the colored people engaged in gainful occupations throughout the country, as the practice of discrimination in wages against colored workmen prevails in many industries. --- EIGHT PAGES Forehead Branded After the beating one of the Klansmen produced a small bottle, and saying that it was silver nitrate, carefully it tasted "K. K. K." on Johnson's forehead. The hotel where Johnson is employed is large and fashionable. In his confession, he is said to have named several other bellboys and told of their intimacy with the women guests there most of whom are well known and wealthy. He painted a lurid picture of night life behind the scenes. Two newspaper men were also kidnapped and taken along with the party to witness the whipping in order to insure ample publicity for the affair. ATLANTA, Ga., April 9. — Although peonage is not state-wide in Georgia, Vincent Hughes, head of the bureau of investigation of the department of justice here, declared last week that the "bulk of his work" consisted in investigating complaints of "Mr. Hughes."

The bulk of our work now is on peonage complaints and there are more of these than all other cases combined. PRICE FIVE CENTS Enraged Husband Attacks Wife When She Is Too Interested In Bible To Notice Him. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 9. Her deep interest in the Bible came near causing the death of Mrs. Mary Shepard, 311 W. Vermont street, when she was attacked and almost fatally stabbed by her husband, John Shepard, who is 25 years old. John Shepard entered his home about 7:30 Sunday night, and found his wife reading the Bible. So interested she that she did not hear him enter, nor did she reply to any of his questions. At this Shepard became enraged, drew his knife, and attacked her. She fled into the street, followed by her enraged husband. Patrolman J. De Rosette appeared on the scene and probably saved Mrs. Shepard's life, but not until her husband had stabbed her five times about the shoulders and bust. Shepard was put under arrest without resistance. Mrs. Shepard was placed in the City Hospital. Physicians say she will recover. STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY BOYCOTTS LYNCHING TOWN STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY BOYCOTTS LYNCHING TOWN NEW YORK CITY, April 6.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, today announced receipt of news that the State Medical Society of Kentucky had voted to call off a meeting which it had been planned to hold in Versailles, Kentucky. Versailles is the scene of the lynching of Richard James on March 13, as a result of which Governor Morrow removed the jailer who permitted the mob to take its victim from his custody. The change in the state meeting of Kentucky's medical society is a direct consequence of the lynching, according to the president of the society, Reol Discovers a New Star—Head. Under the direction of the Reol Film Corporation's master director, Mr. E. Richard Abrams, a finished actor of the new school, has completed a powerful photo drama depicting real race life and activities taken from Paul Lawrence Dunbar's famous novel "The Sport of the Gods," Mr. Abrams sensational presentation of the leading character of the story marks his approach in the screen world as a definite success. It may be authoritatively stated that up to the finding of Mr. Abrams, the race photo-play world was resting on a decidedly quicksand foundation. His appearance at this time is psychological in the effect that his splended physical makeup and natural histrionic ability will have upon movie enthusiasts for more pictures to be made by this man and his fellow players. TORNADO KILLS TWO IN ALBANY, GA.

Efects to Collect Huge Royalties. Dr. Elbert R. Robinson, popularized in "the wheel man," declared in statement Monday that the superintendent granted him by the Illinois Supreme Court practically disposed of the charges against him of operating a confidence game. He says he will now turn his attention to preparations to collect the judgments he has obtained for infringement on his patent for the construction and moulding of the iron wheel. In case he is successful in collecting these judgments, Dr. Robinson said that he would then be entitled to huge royalties on the manufacture of the molding holding his patent. Such a contingency would make Dr. Robinson without question, the wealthiest Black Man in the United States, and would number him among the wealthy men of the country, both black and white.

Under the auspices of the following committee: Mrs. Morris, Mrs. Robinson, Mrs. Lipstone, Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Starks. Ethel Mabels was committed to the Illinois Children's Home and Aid Society in June, 1916. Her mother, Lizzie Mabels, was dead and her father, Robert Mabels, was in the hospital for the insane at Dunning, Ill. At the time Ethel came to us she was being treated at the St. Luke's Hospital. Crutches were furnished her at that time by the Illinois Children's Home and Aid Society. She left the hospital to go to the home of a Mrs Skinner, 2x./ Federal St. She was unable to enter school for some time on account of her condition. Later she was transferred to the home of Mrs. John Rogers, 1352 W. 61st St. She attended school and was very satisfactory in every way. However physically, she seemed to decline. She was removed from Mrs. Roger's home and placed in the Crippled Children's Home in Maywood, which was formerly run by the Illinois Children's Home and Aid Society. Ethel was later sent from the Crippled Children's Home to her grandmother, Mrs Emma Killebrow of Normal, Ill. Mrs Killebrow, however, was poor and had to work hard for a living.

It is believed that this report was published by some of Mr. Bottoms' enemies in order to embarrass him in his efforts to conduct a decent place for respectable people, also because he will not submit to petty graft which is common to men who operate questionable places. Helps Charity. Mr. Bottoms is considered one of the most liberal men on the South Side. He enjoys the covetous reputation of never turning down a request to aid a worthy cause. It was only last week that he turned over the receipts of an entire afternoon matinee to aid the Julia Johnson Home for Working Girls. Life is a member and a large contributor to the Chicago Urban League. In an interview with a Whip reporter Mr. Bottoms, in his modest way, said: "It has been the height of my ambition to equip a first-class place for amusement lovers free from the degrading and contaminating influences which are usually present in most cabars. I have succeeded in accomplishing this desire and the respectable people know it and are rewarding me with their patronage." A Wonderful Opportunity in the Financial Field. Mr. F. R.

DAVE PEYTON Composer, Musician, Critic Vaudeville and Movie Review. On Monday night, Stafford and Davis presented their own creation "The Wiff Waff Warblers", a two act musical Extravaganza. The best show seen here since the Smarter Set, and from the general opinion, it is welcomed, first because these boys offer something that can be absorbed and appreciated and it is void of the rotten stuff that most of our so-called producers have been offering. The chorus is a good looking one, is fast and wirey in the dance creations. Stafford and Davis, both doing blackface, are real laugh provokers and show that they are graduated from the school of real art. Mrs. Stafford and Mrs. Davis, were pleasing in song and dialogue, and the one great treat, was the Quartette; real singers, and I mean their harmony interpretation was original, some of the weirdest harmony connections I have ever heard, that only the Negro can produce, as the world gives it to us when it comes to creative melody. A light elopement theme runs thru the vehicle, that is very interesting, and is augmented with peppy musical numbers, making the evening one of pleasure. A complete review of the artists will be published in next week's issue. ```markdown ``` Columbia Columbia Records TRADE MARK Grafonola Dance Music HAPPY HOTTENTOT. (Harry Von Tiger.) Song Fox Trot.

The team have been under a fierce fire all winter down around the warm gulf stream, and their great showing in the warm climate against all comers is no criterion of their real ability up around the insidious lake breezes of early spring. Many an athlete of the diamond has virtually burned up the soil in the early spring workout in the southland only to be put down for the final count when he stripped down and CHICAGO GIANTS PLAY NORMALS SUNDAY Joe Green's Chicago Giants, members of the Negro National League will play their first game of the present season at Normal Park, and the Normals, last year's city champions, will be their opponents. The Normals are the fast aggregation that cleaned up "Rube" Fosters' gang last year and ran away with the big baseball honors of the city and surrounding territory. Big Taylor, considered one of the best pitchers among the colored hurlers, will be on the slab for the dark leaguers, while Frank Duncan, that promising youngster of the protector and mask, will do the honors behind the bat. The park is located at 61st and Racine Ave., and being of easy access and excellent seating accommodations should house a monster of a crowd for the opening tilt of the 1921 season. Davey Malarcherm crack, third baseman of the American Giants got back to taw early this week and brings shining reports of the class displayed by the many players that his team encountered in their play throughout the southland. Jack Marshall was sent in from Memphis and is disabled in the underpins and may be out of the doings for a while. The Chicagoans won the Sunday game at Memphis by score of 3-1. HAMPTON DEFEATS UNION 7 TO g By Charles H. Williams HAMPTON, Va., April 6—Hampton Institute defeated Virginia Union University by a score of 7 to 6 in the annual Easter Monday baseball game, played in Richmond on Hovey's Field. A large crowd was in attendance, as the Hampton-Union game is looked upon as one of the big society events of Richmond. Beautiful women filled the stands, wearing their new Easter frocks and bonnets. They enthusiastically rooted for their Enthusiasm ran high on the side lines. The Union rooters felt confident of victory until the fifth inning, when Hampton hammered out five runs, making the score 6 to 3. The Union team, fighting hard and aided by errors, succeeded in gaining one run in each of the three innings after the fatal fifth. Hampton clinched the game by getting a tally in the ninth. Both teams played erratic ball at times, making costly errors. The teams were nearly equally matched, Hampton having a slight advantage in the superb pitching of Chamberlain, which was easily the feature of the game, Chamberlain struck out eight Unionites while his opponent struck out five. The line-up was as follows: Hampton—Woods, left field; Rainey, right field; Mann, center field; Gunn, first base; Long (Capt.), shortstop; Eliott, second base; Alexander, third base; Campbell, catcher; Chamberlain, pitcher. Union—Branch, left field; Johnson right field; Jackson, center field; Gregory, first base; Wilson, shortstop; Adams, second base; McGuinan (Capt.), third base; McAllister, catcher; Savage, pitcher. Summary—Substitutes for Union, Green, Branch, Brown and Jeffries. Errors—Hampton, 6; Union, 9; Hampton walked 1 man, Union 2; bases on hit ball, 1 each; struck out, by Hampton 8, by Union 5. Umpire—C. P. Hayes of Richmond. FIRST BASEMAN GRANT IN WEDLOCK. Thousands of baseball fans in all parts of this country and Cuba have witnessed and been held spell bound over the marvelous catches that Leroy Grant has negotiated as a member of the American Giants. As a perfect handler of imperfectly thrown bells, Grant's fame extends from coast to coast and from gulf to lakes; but reports have Grant in the greatest catch of his life at Jacksonville, Fla., recently. Wednesday, March 23, Leroy Grant and Miss Emma Sanford of Jacksonville, were united in wedlock. Tom Johnson, Bobby Williams, and Otis Starkes, fellow ball players, stood with Grant during the ceremony. Mrs. Grant has left for Chicago which will be the future home of the happy couple. essayed to go the route in the face of the Windy City's gentle gale of mid-April against a tough foe. Just such an adversary awaits the coming of the American, Giants, for upon Sunday, April 17th, DeMoss will lead his men against an aggregation around which there exists much speculation as to superiority of acts and deeds as recorded. Rogers Parks will take the opening shot at Foster's braves' and they are the same gang that downed our champs for a couple of games last spring. They send word that they are even stronger at present. The Detroit Stars open their 1921 season at Park, Sunday. April 10th, and will have even more city opposition, or one of the Canadian league teams. The Indianapolis A. B. C.'s, pull an early April exhibition game, and it may be against the Cuban Stars if they arrive. The Hoosiers open the regular league season, Saturday, May 7th, and Taylor plans to set a pace in opening stunts that will be hard to follow. Negro National League Club And Roster WESTERN CIRCUIT.

Track and field athletic circles were thrown into the throes of excitement last week with the announcement of the wonderful sprinting exhibition given by Charles Paddock, the coast wonder, in a dual meet held in the Golden Gate country, several days ago. The Pasadena fiver, who by the way, was a member of the American Olympic team, took the record to the world's second time of 20 4-5 seconds, and if the record is allowed by the A. A. U. officials, it will go down in the books as being the fastest time for an eighth of a mile ever covered by a running athlete. The world's record for the furling dash is held jointly by Dan Kelly and Howard P. Drew in the time of 21 1-5 seconds, and has stood the test of vicious assault from year to year.

Respectfully Yours. JOLLEY and BUTLER Detroits' Keystone King 4 Second-baseman, Warfield, has just finished a spirited winter's play as a member of the American Giants. Warfield is of the class of players that fits in at any point on the baseball arena. He played in the outfield all winter with the Chicago outfit, but is universally regarded as being without a peer as a second sacker. EXHIBITION GAMES UNIONS LOOSE OPENER Big Crowd Witness First Game of 1921 Here. CHICAGO, Ill., April 5th. The Logan Squares celebrated the opening of their sixteenth season by trimming the Union Giants, 12 to 7, in a well played contest. Ward Miller, old-time Cub, appeared for the victors, as did Phil Chonnard. Buck Freeman was in rare form and was never in danger the five innings he worked. His homer also helped somer. Quite a crowd assembled to witness the fray, walls and playing field being sprinkled with fans, the splendid weather bringing them to the ball yard in droves. An interesting feature of the game was the fact that the Squares made 12 runs, had 12 hits, made 12 putouts and their pitcher had 12 strikeouts.

The Atlanta Black Crackers defeated Rube Foster's American Giants at Ponce de Leon, by the score of 1 to 0. The game was a beautiful pitchers' battle between two southpaws, Streeter for Atlanta and Brown for the Giants. Atlanta put across the only counter of the game in the seventh inning, when Reid was hit by a pitch balk, O'Neil fouled out to the catcher, but Moddox, the one-arm wonder, laid down a perfect sacrifice and Reid reached second. Davis then pasted one of Brown's fast ones to center for two -bags, and Reid counted. Davis was out trying to stretch his arm to a trip. Grant at first base played the best game for the Giants. Cox also played a great game for the Crackers. Score by innings: R. H. E. Giants ..... 000 000 000 -0 4 1 Atlanta ..... 001 001 000 -0 4 1 Brownies - Brown and Brown Dickson; Streeter and O'Neil.

Where You Meet All The Boys The Excelsior Club POOL & BILLIARDS 3448 Indiana Avenue Frank (Bat) Lewis ```markdown ``` BY "DAVE WYATT" PIONEER SPECIALISTS TO SEE SPEED AT LOUISVILLE, KY. Tryouts at the two Louisville tracks Sunday morning indicated that those who journey to Churchill Downs aboard the Pioneer Special will see plenty of speed Derby Day. Coyne and Brother Batch, two of the most favorable of the western contingent for the $50,000 added stake, were sent one and one-eighth miles in 1:59 at the Downs. This was the best move any of the derby eligibles have shown this season. The two horses, both trained by C. C. Van Meter, ran head and head throughout, but were under restraint. After covering the mile in 1:43:25 the riders eased them up almost to a gallop. There has been considerable suspicion as to Brother Batch's wind, as he has been suffering from a throat infection, but he gave no evidence of anything wrong. He pulled up in good shape. Ben Bolt Does a Mile Ben Belt, opp. L. W. Bell, local business man was given a mile in 1:50 1-5 at the Downs. He could have gone much faster. Jockey Jack Hanover, astride him, had a sung hold at all times. This horse is one of the outsiders, but his recent efforts have gained him a following. Over at Douglas Park, Muskallonge, owned by "Bud" Fisher, the cartoonist, reeled off a mile in 1:46 1-5 with little apparent effort. He tried hard to run faster, but Trainer A. B. Gordon is working to develop his stamina rather than speed. Muskallonge has proven on numerous occasions that he has speed. He has the reputation of being strictly a sprinter, but now is showing signs of staying ability. Red Legs, John S. Ward's derby prospect started out at a merry cliff in 1:39 furlong workout at Douglas running the first half mile in 48; his rider took hold at this juncture and he wound up in 1:17 4-5. He is training in excellent fashion. Seven furlongs in 1:35 is the work credited to Sir Thomas Kean, from the Lloyd Gentry establishment. He was cased up throughout the final furlong. Tracks in Fine Condition. The local tracks were at their best this morning and when the crack eastern 3-year-olds begin to arrive here this week they will find two of the best racing ovals in America over which to fit their charges. The Downs was recently resold to a depth of eight inches. The new loam has settled in such compact fashion that the course is several seconds faster.

WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. Professional Ethics . In last week’s Whip there appeared an article by “Lupin con- cerning the propriety of the treatment accorded Drs. Smith and Williams, who were expelled from the Medical Association, because they had written for publications and allowed their signatures and photos to appear. If we may judge by the number of communica- tions we have received on the subject, the article in question has created no end of discussion. The Whip never cracks its lash for the mere pleasure of seeing ‘a welt rise. It always has some definite basic reason for its dis- agreement with any public policy or act. It came to the defense of the two physicians under discussion because they are both honorable gentlemen of an honorable profession, whose only sin has been that they have tried to alleviate human suffering by teaching the methods of preventing disease, and in so doing they have received the reward that comes to every unselfish public servant—the good will of the community and the privilege of being well known. It is this “good will” and this “publicity” to which the profession objects, claiming that it smacks of advertisement, and is therefore unethical. The Whip has no desire to thwart the ethics of any profession; on the contrary where ethics mean the highest standard of professional service, it stands heartily and wholesouledly behind it, but there are two kinds of professional ethics—number one, those based upon justice and morality; number two, those based upon ancient, foolish and childish fiubdubbery. No one would think of questioning number one; everyone would question number two. For instance, it is unprofessional for a sec- ond physician to visit a patient until the first has been definitely re- leased from the case. It is based upon justice of one physician to another and upon justice toward the patient who cannot thrive with -twe-deetors working independently of each other. That then, is sound ethics. It is unprofessional for a physician to discuss the ailment of his patient with an outsider. That is based upon the existing sense of social morality, which seeks to safeguard the inti- mate things of the individual and the home. That, too, is sound ethics. But no physician has yet been able to point out the single moral or justifiable reason why a physician should not allow his picture to appear, as well as his signature, in connection with articles which are both helpful and scientific. The profession simply says: “It is unethical.” If this is the only reason, then this rule of ethics is flubdubbery. Centuries ago medicine was studied by rich men who used it not to make a livelihood, but to gain social distinction. It was then considered of course as beneath the dignity of the profession to secure publicity collaterally. Later, when fees were charged, there ‘was a very good reason for ethics against publicity—it kept the power and income in the hands of the few physicians who were established and known. It made it hard for the newcomer to break through. But all that happened ages ago. Strange that it still survives. One ‘can see no earthly reason for its existence. Many of the makers of medical history of today resort to legitimate publicity rather than “hide their lights under a bushel.” The famous Mayo Brothers are referred to constantly through the press of the country. It was said that the late Dr. Murphy had legitimate channels of publicity. Dr. Leonard Keene Hirschberg of Johns Hopkins University writes under his own signature; the Health Commissioners of our great cities not only are advertised, but also dispense their views freely, yet none of these men have suffered in the eyse of the profession. The acid test, after all, is to deliver the goods honorably. Aside from this, the Whip grinds no axe against the professional men of this com- munity. It wishes them well, and in attacking “false ethics,” which is destroying their sense of race solidarity, it believes it is lending practical aid to the whole race. And so we believe that in the inter- est of peace and prosperity, Dr. Smith, Health Editor of the Chicago Whip, and Dr. Wilberforce Williams, Health Editor of one of our contemporaries, should be publicly exonerated by their colleague: of any logical charge of unethical practice. In their endeavors tc teach the public simple principles of hygiene and the prevention of disease they have suffered as all good Samaritans, and the Levite survives unmolested. The fictions of the present day will soon be dissolved in the unclouded light of reason and only the true sub: stantial facts of life will be considered. We wait. The Devil Is Here ate lane.) Tie apgeutneiion (rom s had beaten, terrorized and murd: have outdistanced the Armenians fhe Ku Klux Klan is with us. It the City Hall and vaunts of its uns y to openly advertise for recruits, : be taken for granted that the pre recent as its advertisement suggests this malicious kian played no small codlums for the recent deplorable : c’s attention to this during the clash. ‘Well, they are here. The organization from Dixie. The one which for years had beaten, terrorized and murdered black folks The once who have outdistanced the Armenians in its butchery and cruelty. The Ku Klux Klan is with us. It stands upon the battlements of the City Hall and vaunts of its unsavory record. It has the audacity to openly advertise for recruits, It must not be taken for granted that the presence of the Ku Klux Klan is as recent as its advertisement suggests. The poisonous propaganda of this malicious klan played no small part in arousing the minds of hoodlums for the recent deplorable riots. The Whip called the public’s attention to this during the clash. In an editorial —“The Riot and the Hidden Hand’’—it pointed out in detail the work of the Ku Klux. It is significant to note how this organization, which has always operated under cover, has modified its program since it decided to come out into the open for membership. One of the many things it claims to stand for is the protection of the womanhood of all races and the United States. If we did not know that this part of their program was a subterfuge, in fact, if we took them serious, we would ask them why they have not protected black women from southern vultures? Why they did not protect the many black women who have been lynched because they refused to commit the unpardonable crime? Even with their handicaps black women do not wish the kind of protection that this organization is able to give. It stands to reason that white women do not need it. They have generations of culture, the backing of the courts, the support of the army and navy and therefore should be insulted at the temerity of the Ku Klux Klan. The main purpose of the Midnight Riders from Dixie is to instill fear into the hearts of black men. This being accomplished he will be ripe for exploitation. They will be fit subjects for the peonage farm. There is a scarcity of labor in the South. The fields are devas- tated from neglect. The Southerner by nature is a lazy creature. He believes in letting “George do it!” They want their former em- ployees to return. They desire those who are there to remain. The work of the Ku Klux Klan in Chicago is to stir up sufficient racial feelings to make it unpleasant and unprofitable for the black migrant to remain. Once they are returned the desire of the masses of black folks to leave their cruel masters will be checked. We are of the profound opinion that the workers of the North, black and white, will be able to understand and undermine this scheme. They know that their cause is common. Their interests are so intertangled until the success or failure of one is dependent upon the co-operation and sympathy of the other. ] Legal Hints To , Women EE Violette N.
