TWO EDITORS JAILED BY U.S. --- PRICE 5 CENTS CHARGED WITH STIRRING UP RACE HATRED Attempt To Muzzle Press Seen In Action Of Army Officer NEW YORK CITY, June 18. Charges that Col. John H. Russell, commanding the American Marines in Haiti had imprisoned two native editors and had forbidden Haitian newspapers to reprint American newspaper comment on the Haitian situation were made public last week by the National Association for Colored People. Publication Stopped The charges include an alleged order by Col. Russell forbidding publication of articles which might incite feeling against the American troops, and threatening the offenders with military trial. The two editors mentioned were identified as Jolibois and Lanoue, publishers of two leading Haitian newspapers. Civil Authorities Refuse to Act In commenting on the situation, Secretary Weeks of the War Department is credited with the statement that Col. Russell had ordered a court-martial of the editors for libel when he found it was impossible to initiate civil proceedings against them. LANDIS ORDERS PROBE OF PYTHIAN LODGE LANDIS ORDERS PROBE OF PYTHIAN LODGE Declaring that he believed any lodge which maintained quarters above Entertainers' Cafe was in need of investigation, Judge K. M. Landis last week ordered an investigation of the Knights of Pythias. The order came as a startling finale to a hearing of a petition offered by Ald. Robert Jackson, asking that the lodge, now occupying quarters above the Entertainers' Cafe, be allowed to reopen the quarters formerly occupied by the now defunct Alvedere Club, 35th St. and Calumet Ave. Alderman Jackson said the Pythians wanted the Alvedere Club location for drill purposes. The Alvedere Club is now closed under the prohibition ban. The petition was denied. 4 SEAMEN HOLD OFF MOB OF 2000 WHITES 4 SEAMEN HOLD OFF MOB OF 2000 WHITES HOBOKEN, N. J., June 18. Southern tactics employed by striking white sailors on the water front Saturday night resulted in seriously wounding two of them when Edward Craig, a mess boy on the S. S. McKeesport, refused to be intimated into joining the strikers. Peter J. Vanadell, white, engaged Craig in an argument over the merits of the strike, and struck him. Craig replied with a bullet, and fled. Turning back, however, he shot Louis Rombach, white, in the abdomen. By this time at least 2,000 whites were in pursuit of Craig, when a policeman appeared on the scene, joining in the chase. He put a bullet through Craig's leg, and the boy fell to the ground. As the mob closed on him with shouts of "lynch him," four Craig's companions, also from the S. S. McKeesport, came to his rescue, and held the milling mob off with their guns until police reserves arrived and dispersed the mob. SHOOTS PEEPER DEAD; FIND FACE IS BLACKED SHOOTS PEEPER DEAD; FIND FACE IS BLACKED TEXARKANA, Ark., June 18.—A curious and interesting sidelight was thrown on many crimes which are committed in the South when the body of a man who had been shot dead by a young white girl was turned over to undertakers by the police. Preparations for burial revealed the startling fact that the body was that of a white man with his face blacked with burned cork. He was later identified as Claude A. Dunigan, well-known in this city. He had been slain when a 14-year-old white girl had discovered him peeping in her window at night. The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY RIOT FRENZY KUSH HENRY DURAN NY BIG VOTES OVER SAT. NIGHT; WHIP'S CONTEST ENDS IN 7 SHORT DAYS SEVEN MORE DAYS—then the question will be answered as to who will win the $1,700.00 Dixie Flyer touring car and all the other big and valuable prizes to be given away absolutely free by The Chicago Whip. Next Saturday night, June 25th, at 10 o'clock sharp is the last minute of the now famous $3,500.00 Grand Free Prize Distribution. The time that all the candidates have been working for is almost here—the fatal moment whereby someone will be made just $1,700.00 richer, not to consider the glory and honor that goes with the winning of such a superb prize. Even to the disinterested outsider it is apparent that every one of the "live wire" workers is redoubling his or her efforts in the final dash for supremacy and rich rewards. The vote standing are steadily mounting higher and higher. The fight is at white heat—the rivalry is intense and the battle is bringing out surprising ability among the best hustlers who ever competed for an award. The best man is going to win, but so far the race is so close and hotly contested that it will never be known until the last minute who has been the most successful. Last Big Vote Days After this Saturday night at 9 o'clock, the lowest vote offer of the entire campaign goes into effect. Now you can get votes on the Double Quick-up to Saturday night, June 18th, at 9 o'clock, you get the greatest number of votes for every subscription you secure. It is vitally important to rush in every subscription possible by then in order to avoid losing votes on your subscriptions. Votes are what you are after, and it takes votes to win. Don't fool yourselves into thinking that you will be able to get busy. The fact of the matter is that the voting will be even heavier this last Big Vote week than it has ever been before. Between now and this Saturday night a vast number of votes will be cast at Campaign Headquarters at The Whip office. Big Subscriptions Most Valuable The long term subscriptions are most valuable—they are biggest in (Continued on Page 3.)

LAST OF CREW OF FAMOUS "R. E. LEE," IS DEAD MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 18. — "Uncle" Bob Gibson, 80, reputed to be the last surviving member of the crew of the famous boat Robert E. Lee, died at his home in Baird, Miss., last week. When the famous Mississippi river steamer won her race against the Natchez in 1870, Gibson was a mess attendant upon her, and did his bit toward winning the race by keeping the crew supplied with hot lunches at all times. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, JUNE 18th, 1921 Police Asked To Oust Squatters On Lake Front So great has been the crush of the curious crowds to visit "Hobo's Heaven" as the new settlement at J1st St., and the lake front has been named that the officials of the Illinois Central Railroad last week wrote a letter to Alderman Louis B. Anderson, asking that they be removed. In their letter the railroad people assert that the curious crowds crossing the railroad tracks to visit the unique encampment at the foot of J1st St., impose a continuous strain upon train crews passing that point, in order to prevent accidents. Up to Monday fully fifty homeless and jobless men had taken up habitat on the narrow strip of sand that fringes the lake at J1st St., and had set up a sort of quasi home-rule there. Small stone huts have been constructed from the boulders lying strewn about, and have been roofed over with sticks, tin, rugs, mattings, and many other sorts of material to provide shelter from the rain. The men are banded together in a sort of military organization with an acknowledged leader. Each man has his allotted duty to perform, and must subscribe to the general authority of the camp. Odds and ends are picked up here and for use in furnishing the camp. In front of the leader's hut and just out of reach of the lapping wavelets a large galvanized iron milk can is sink into the sands and serves the purpose of camp refrigerator. Whatever food or vegetables the men are able to bring in during the day is turned in to the general mess supply. Clothes which are donated are distributed to those in most need. All jigsaws must be in camp by 10 p. m. Urban League officials state that in case the squatters are ousted a camp may be established for them in one of the vacant tracts somewhere on Wentworth Ave. "ELAINE RIOTERS" GET DELAY, MAY HANG THIS WEEK LITTLE ROCK, Ark, June 18.—The Supreme Court of Arkansas late last week refused to grant an immediate writ of prohibition against orders of the local chancery court holding up execution of the six "Elaine Rioters" who were to have been executed June 10. Instead, the court granted the appeal of the prisoners' attorneys for a postponement until Monday to give them an opportunity to prepare a defense. Many Pleas for Clemency The governor's office continues to be flooded with telegrams from all parts of the country asking for clemency for the doomed men. However, up to the present time, he has positively refused to grant the men a stay of execution until the other six men awaiting trial at Helena can be tried again. They were also convicted and given the death penalty, but their cases were reversed by the Supreme Court. The evidence is practically the same in all the cases, and it is contended that a reversal in one could mean a reversal in all. The men now fighting for writs of habeas corpus, and in the event the chancery court grants the writs, it is said that the men will have 14 tried again under conditions which will correct alleged errors in their trial in the Phillips County courts. Sing As Death Hour Passes Although they had no assurance that their new lease on life would last more than a few days, the six condemned men ate hearty breakfasts and sang many religious songs as the expected hour of their death passed. U. S. LABOR DEPARTMENT HAS PLANS TO REBUILD TULSA'S BURNED HOMES WASHINGTON, June 18.—Specifications and suggestions for a model community housing plan to be used in rebuilding the burned section of Tulsa were offered last Wednesday by the United States Department of Labor through Senator Harreld. The plans, it was stated, represent the best thought of architects and experts in housing gathered and used in building the community at Truxton, Va. A Gruesome, yes, but the truth must be told. An exclusive and hitherto unreproduced photograph of the recent lynching of a man in Jonesboro, Ark. This man was lynched because he was a the head of an organization of young men who refused to work for white planters at starvation wages. PREACHES ON LYNCHING AS WILD MOB ROAMS WOODS FOR VICTIM PREACHES ON LYNCHING AS WILD MOB ROAMS WOODS FOR VICTIM MOORESTOWN, N. J., June 18—While funeral services were being held over the body of a seven-year-old white girl, Matilda Russo, hundreds of Jersey farmers were patrolling the highways and scouring the woods in search of Louis Lively, alleged to be the girl's slayer. If he is captured, there is no doubt that he will be strung up and lynched by the mad mobs now seeking him, although his guilt is speculative. Priest Asks Calmness. While the manhunt was in progress the funeral of the child was being held in the Roman Catholic Church of Our Lady of Good Counsel, by Father James F. Henrick, the pastor, Father Hendrick advised his 700 hearers to let the law take its course and not put another stain on the community. Lively is alleged to have slain the girl because she slapped his infant stepon several times. All efforts to locate him have so far been unsuccessful. Pocketbook Game Appears in Atlanta ATLANTA, Ga., June 18.—The old pocketbook game appeared here last week when confidence men fleeced Mrs. Mary Jackson, 379 Richardson St., out of $327, when they "found" a pocketbook on the street and offered to divide it with her.

N.A.A.C.P. OFFICIAL WAS DEPUTY SHERIFF IN TULSA RIOT NEW YORK CITY, June 18.—Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is now preparing an exhaustive report of scenes during the Tulsa riot which he witnessed. Arriving upon the ground while the riot was in progress, Mr. White, who is so fair as to be indistinguishable as a member of our Race, succeeded in having himself appointed a deputy sheriff and put on patrol duty. In an intimate interview he said that fully 200 people, both white and black, were killed during the riot, as was at first estimated. CRAZED BY DENATURED ALCOHOL, IS SHOT DEAD BY POLICE NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 18.—Frantic telephone calls summoned the police to the 1000 block on Eleventh Ave., here Thursday, where police found Noble Atkins, who had drunk a pint of denatured alcohol, and in his insane frenzy was terrorizing the neighborhood. When they attempted to arrest him, it is said that he snatched a picket from a fence and struck one policeman over the eye, stunning him. He then seized the officer's gun and barricaded himself behind a stone wall until shot dead. PRICE FIVE CENTS G.O.P. SLASHES SOUTH'S VOTE IN CONVENTION New Rules Will Practically Disfranchise Some Parts of Dixie WASHINGTON, D. C., June 18—In spite of strenuous and eloquent protests of Southern members, the Republican National Committee last Wednesday by a vote of 36 to 12, reduced materially the South's representation at Republican National Conventions. Southern Democratic states which sent 144 delegates to the Chicago convention in 1920 can only send 121 in 1924. Must Be Organized. The hardest blow struck at the Southern representation, however, was contained in a portion of the resolution which decreed that no delegate at all will be permitted from a congressional district which does not maintain a bona fide organization, run a candidate for congress, and cast a minimum of 2,500 votes at the election. This will seriously affect many localities in the South where the party is so weak that candidates are never put up. "Line" Johnson Bitter. Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Georgia, spoke at length against the resolution, which he characterized as "penalizing, indictive, and in no sense remedial." He said Southern Republicans are helpless in the face of state disfranchising laws, over which they have no control. This action by the committee is taken by some as a direct blow at men of the type of Johnson who have gotten into power in the Republican party through scandalous means. Many leading politicians regret the injury such action will do, but are determined that no man again shall ride into the National Committee by marshalling the South so-called "rotten boroughs." DR. BENTLEY RECEIVES HIGH DEGREE AT HOWARD WASHINGTON, D. C., June 18. At her Fifty-Second Annual Commencement exercises, held Friday, June 10, the fa june 16, the faculty of Howard University exhibited their high esteem for the character and abilities of Dr. Charles E. Bentley of Chicago, by conferring upon him the degree of Doctor of Science. PETER H. BURGESS Dr. Bentley was presented to the president of the University by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer, to receive the degree Scott, Secretary- Dr. Chas. E. Bentley Treasurer, to receive the degree. President Durkee's felicitous expressions in conferring the degree upon Dr. Bentley were as follows: "Charles Edwin Bentley: Author, lecturer, friend of man, and brother in every society for social betterment; a scientist whose name and fame add much to the glory of our common humanity." Dr. Bentley is well-known not only in Chicago, but throughout the country, as one of America's leading authorities in special branches of dentistry, being the author of several technical treatises. Recently he conducted a course of lectures at Howard University, which were attended not only by members of the Howard Dental School, but by most of the practising dentists of Washington as well. SHREVEPORT, La., June 18—With his scalp and back perforated with buckshot, Ernest Johnson, 23, was placed in the parish jail after an unsuccessful attempt to kill him by two farmers. The farmers claimed that they discovered Johnson in the act of stealing corn, and fired at him with shotguns. Under ordinary circumstances the leaden pellets would have killed any man, physicians say, but on account of the thickness of Johnson's skin, they did not penetrate further. "Back To Africa" Boat Finds Watery Grave SECOND 'NOAH'S ARK' SINKS AT LAUNCHING Work and Toil of Three Years Sinks to Bottom of Bay In 10 Minutes LOS ANGELES, Cal., June 18.—Great consternation prevailed among the followers of the Rev. J. E. Lewis, evangelist and "Second Noah," when his "ark," after three years in the building, slowly settled into the waters of Los Angeles Bay last Thursday night immediately after being launched. The Rev. Mr. Lewis, who, after three years of single-handed toil built the ark high up on the hills facing the Pacific, declared his intention of forsaking "wicked America," and taking a boatload of missionaries to Africa. He himself was to be captain and crew. The evangelist and two assistants were thrown overboard when the craft capsized, but were quickly rescued by those watching on the shore. Lack of ballast was said to be the cause of the trouble. With his ark lying at the bottom of Los Angeles harbor, the second Noah could not be prevailed upon to make a statement.

BATTLES FIVE IN VAIN EFFORT TO ESCAPE LAW It required the combined efforts of two policemen, a saloonkeeper, an express guard, and a streetcar motorman to capture Mr. Ridout after he had determined to retain his liberty at all costs. Ridout, who lives at 935 State St. was wanted by the police when he was discovered by Policeman Albert Hahin in an alley. He fled through a shed into the saloon of William Taglia. The policeman overtook him there and the two were locked in combat when Taglia unlocked them with a chair, which he intended to hit Hid out over the head with, but missing his aim, he hit the policeman. Ridout then leaped aboard a car on State St., only to be ousted by the motorman into the waiting arms of Sgt.

PITTSURGH, Pa., June 18—It is reported here that representatives of the cooks and waiters of the Pennsylvania Lines West of Pittsburgh have accepted wage reductions of $5.00 to $10.00 per month. That with the waiters and cooks is the first wage reduction agreement affected on any railroad outside the labor board's efforts, General Manager Hamilton of the Pennsylvania Lines says. "The men realize they should share in the general readjustment. These employees were not included in the labor board's award of last July, but their pay was increased by the railroad administration. We hope the reduction will justify lower dining car prices, although dining cars are always unprofitable." It is understood that other railroads in the United States will take action similar to that of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and conferences are expected to be held between the management of the roads and dining car employees within the next few days. Morris, Hon. A. H. Roberts and others made telling talks. Mrs. Carrie South, Miss Pauline J. Lee, and Mrs. Ruth Allen were in charge of various musical programs. Mrs. Irene McCoy Gaines was at her herald in address. Other Club notes will be found elsewhere in this issue. They are now late for this column. Twenty-five members of St. Thomas Church petitioned Bishop Anderson according to the canons of the church to create St. Thomas Mission a parish. St. Thomas has been a mission for the past forty years, and the majority of the congregation have been in favor of the church becoming a parish. The priest, Rev John H. Simons, for reasons best known to himself has steadfastly opposed every attempt to create the mission into a parish. Knowing that all other religious denominations in the city of Chicago among colored people are making rapid strides forward in improving and enlarging church property, the members of this organization felt that it was up to them to do likewise. The attitude of Rev. Simons in this matter is out of the ordinary, and possibly he may be able to explain why he stands as a bindrance to his congregation in the path of progress. Mr. Tetherington, president of The Men's Club of St. Thomas Church, through the instructions of the Rev. Simons absolutely refused to allow the Club members to discuss the subject when they met last Tuesday night, June 7th. In consequence the club speedily adjourned, and many protests of indignation were made by the members in reference to the treatment accorded them by Rev. Simons and Pres. Tetherington.

The following editorial from the "New Majority," a paper owned and controlled by the Chicago Federation of Labor, expresses Labor's idea of the Chicago Tribune's attitude. The Negro-Hating Tribune. "The Chicago Tribune never misses an opportunity to throw the hooks into Negroes, Irish freedom and labor. So, in connection with the Tulsa race riots, it printed a story of the affair signed by Richard Lloyd Jones, publisher of the Tulsa Tribune. Jones used to be a liberal, but evidently he has changed his line of thought. He used up most of his space explaining that there were good Negroes and bad Negroes and that bad Negroes were very bad men indeed. He didn't say a word about bad white men being very bad men indeed. He also said that race prejudice is as ancient as time." "One of the things that most surprised, our soldiers who went to France, was the discovery that in France there was no apparent prejudice against dark-skinned folk. A Negro was as good as a white man. Racial and national prejudices are caused by exploitation of one group and thereby causing it to undercut the wages of another group.

NOSEY was visiting a friend who lives on Prairie Avenue on the third floor, and about I o'clock in the morning went out on the back porch to smoke a cigarette. All was quiet in the neighborhood, and Nosey thought that everybody had retired. Finishing his cigarette, he dropped it into the yard below. There came up a howl and a feminine screech, followed by some of the strongest cuss words made. The lighted cigarette butt, landing on the back of the gentleman's neck, had disturbed the quiet party being held on the lawn. The funny part of it all was that the man yelled, "My God, I'm shot!" Nosey recognized the voice as that of the man who lives on the second floor and the woman's voice as that of the lady who lives on the first floor. She explained that she was taking in some washing, and he said that he was helping her. The question naturally follows. "Why should he think he was shot?" Nosey advises all men to be careful where they throw their cigarette-butts, as you can never tell what may happen. --- ON CERTAIN terms almost anybody can get hold of an automobile. Nosey heard a very prominent (prominent in certain circles) lawyer "arranging" with a "lady" the terms under which he was to get a car. He was to have the use of the car in the daytime up till six o'clock, when she was to have her evening drive, and then he could put it in the garage until midnight, when she would have her own chauffeur to take her riding till she was tired. Nosey listened with interest and watched the lawyer preparing his alibi for friend wife, because it was going to be hard for him to explain why he could not use the car all of the time. Nosey knows that it is going to be a bony when wife sees her husband, being driven around by a fair blond after midnight, while she has to take the street car home from the theatre. But those are the terms. The lawyer has already paid the "lady" her "price" for this arrangement. If you want to know how it is done, ask the lawyer when he appears with "his" new car. ```markdown ``` SOME PEOPLE just have to have a new sensation. Nosey was one of the help at one of "society's" sub rosa parties the other night. He had to be there, and as he was not invited, he became "one of the help." One of Chicago's leading fights in the business world proposed that the ladies and gentlemen should swap clothes for the evening's stunt. It was after the bonded variety of drinks had given out and plain old shoott" was being served that this happened. The "stunt" was a scream angled but caused one little married lady some embarrassment the next morning as she tried to explain to her husband how those gentleman's garments got into the room. She could not remember all of the performance, so made the poor man believe they were his, even though he had never wore silk clothes in all his life. The lenient husband has told her that she cannot go to moving pictures any more if she cannot remember what picture was shown. He'll find out about her one day when he has to appear to go her bond after that "picture show" has been pulled. --- EACH PERSON has his own way of conducting his own affairs. Nosey was sitting in a cabaret the other night and listened to a beautiful young lady telling one of the waiters to tell her husband when he came in that she would meet him three days later at the Lincoln Gardens. The waiter seemed to know, and it seemed to be the usual thing for her to make arrangements to see her "husband" in this way ever so often. She left a large roll of bills with the waiter to give her husband when he came around three days later. Nosey was interested to learn the lady's address in order to find out if she knew of just one other good wife like her. She is truly worth her weight in gold. --- YOU HAVE to hand it to the man who designed the house on Wabash Avenue with the many entrances and exits. You enter the basement for your meal, the side door to have your suit pressed, the first floor front for a room, pass through the rear door to the pool room and barber shop, and ascend to the top floor for your dancing and cabaret. You can gain entrance to the one house from three streets, and if you know all the short cuts through the adjoining buildings, you can be assured of entrances and exits on four streets. Nosey was taking a friend through the place the other night, and he got lost for a minute only to re-appear through a huge painting on the side of the house. He told Nosey that some men pushed him through it when he entered a room marked private. Why try to get out of the Puzzle Garden at White City when you have with you "The House of a Hundred Doors."

Oh, you must know her because she passes on the acts of everybody who she considers anybody. Well, tell her about the glass house. You know. One must not throw stones when they live in them. I know you know that lady who is trying to make Peggy Joyce look like a piker? You must know her because she is trying to spend her last husband's oil wells and has about ruined that prosperous dentist with her large buying power. Well tell her just where all the pawn shops are located because she will need them soon. Now you must know that golden-haired "vamp" in the Village Gossip's Row? Well, tell her that flirting and gossiping with every policeman she sees on the street will not save her in the end. Some policemen do their duty. I know you know sweet young man who always has a box of candy in his pocket for the ladies? Oh, you must know him because he has left some of this pretty candy in almost every home in his set. The children know him and love him but some of the husbands have decided to fix him so that he will not be able to buy any more You must know that young professional man who just insists on taking the girls riding in his car? You girls must know him because he always asks you if you do not want to take a ride to Gary. Well, better watch out for him and if you go, be sure and take your lunch with you as his car has broken down on every trip he made to Gary so far. I know you know the little lady from the East who said she never stayed out later than ten o'clock. Well, she must have meant that she never gets home from the night before until ten o'clock the next morning because Nosey followed on her wild trail the other night until six o'clock the next morning. One simply cannot believe EVERYTHING that the girls say. I know you know that man who peddles "hoocht"? Well, tell him to have his pockets made larger and then the policemen will not try to "frisk" him for a gun like they did on Rhodes Avenue not long ago. I know you know that fat barber who wears a red flower in the button hole of his coat? Well, he lost that flower in his foot race the other night when coming down Grand Blvd. Someone told him that the red flower was bad luck so now he wears a white one. If he has to run a little again he will be convinced that there is nothing in signs. Return from Motor Trip James Riley, Wiley, Winstanley, James Train, and Jack Chenault are just back from a motor tour through southern Ohio and Indiana.

The people of Chicago will be greatly interested in the coming to this city on June 25 of one of the foremost men of our race, the Rev Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor, formerly of Atlanta, Georgia, and now of Brooklyn, New York. For twenty-five years this constructive leader of our people labored in the heart of the South and built up in Atlanta a great institutional church that touched the lives of ten thousand souls annually. President Theodore Roosevelt visited Dr. Proctor in Atlanta and pronounced his work there as one of the most effective and important churches in the country. Although a church and race builder of national fame, Dr Proctor's greatest claim to recognition comes from his match beating T. Washington soired to fame on the enthusiasm of his now classic Cotton States' Exposition speech in Atlanta, so also this other prophet of the race, Henry Hugh Proctor, was thrust into national notice in Atlanta when he first delivered that masterful address, "The Black Man's Burden." Dr. Proctor is now leading a movement to build a million dollar church community center in greater New York, where a quarter of a million Negroes live, and he is coming through our city en route to Los Angeles where he will attend the National Council of Congregational Churches early in July. He will speak at our local Lincoln Memorial Congregational Church, Champlain Avenue, at E. 65th Street, on Sunday morning and evening, June 26, and the following evening, Monday, June 27. Dr. Proctor will give his famous lecture, now revised and brought up to date, on "The Black Man's Burden." A wonderful musical program will be rendered in connection with this address by such well known artists as Mime, Antionette Carnes and Mr. Harrison Emmanuel. The place of this meeting will be Grace Presbyterian Church, Vincennes and 36th Street, and the admission, 50 cents. Every Negro in Chicago should hear Proctor. Mrs. Hill in Michigan Mrs. T. Arnold, Hill and family lives at the school, where they will, to send the syringes.

Complaints of Immorality at City School Much complaint has been made to the city authorities by the principal of the school at 34th and Dearborn Streets, and investigation by the juvenile officers of the Municipal Court revealed the fact that a number of the 15 and 16 year old boys of the school have conducted a persistent campaign in the debauching of young girls.

CYRUS FUNERAL DIRECTOR 4821 South State Street COMPLETE FUNERAL $85.00 MEN COLLIDE WHEN BOTH TRY FOR FOUL Catcher Succumbs In Unusual Accident HICKMAN, Ky., June 18.—Stonewall Brooks, catcher on the Clinton, Ky., baseball team, is dead in Clinton as the result of one of the most unusual accidents in the history of baseball. Brooks was hurt here in a game Sunday, June 9, and was finally taken to his home where he died of internal injuries. The accident happened, when the third baseman, who weighs around 190 pounds, ran into Brooks, trying to catch a foul, both were trying for the ball, and their heads came together. The third baseman struck Brooks with such force that he was hurled to the ground, and it was thought for a time that he would die on the grounds. Strange to say, death resulted, not from concussion or shock, but from internal injuries. CURANS LOST TO MONARCHS A Crowd of 9,000 Saw Kansas City Team Win. 6 to 2 Kansas City, Mo., June 12—LeBlanc the leading hurler on the Cohan's staff, had the Monarchs popping up to the infield for four innings in the second game, and the Monarchs were with the beagles to weaken and the home club won again. This time the score was 6 to 3. McNair started the Monarchs on the road followed with a triple and Rogan drove the shortstop home with a 1-base hit. Another run came in the sixth when Donaldson's sack followed with a triple and Rogan reached third on Portionto's single. Hits by Carr, Moore and Rogan added two more in the seventh and in the eighth Donaldson carried the ball when his single was followed by two baserunners. The visitors jumped off in the lead by getting a run in the first and another in the second and were knocked from the baserunners by the eighth in the back with only one out. Rogan than walked a batter, forcing a run home, but he disposed of the next three, his mates helping him with The crowd was estimated at nine thousand.

DEFENCE CRACKS IN 10TH Hurling Duel Between Starks and Johnson Ends in the Tenth Frame When With Two Men Down, Third-baseman Day Allows Easy Roller to Trickle Between His Pins. CHICAGO, June 13.—The Indianapolis A. B. C's and American Giants unfurled a mighty classy show for Schorling park fans in the third game of the series here, and the peppy display of baseball wares might have went on indefinitely, only for the balky disposition of Infielder Day, who early in the fray displayed open signs of wavering, finally getting a chance to close the great show, when in the tenth inning he forced a sprained knee blow and had advanced to third base aided by an out and a hit, with two men dead. Day allowed Bobby Williams' slow-rolling grounder to exude him bringing the game to an end, 1-0, in favor of the locals. Eoster's batsmen went for seven innings before they were able to annex credit for a hit, then, Jim Brown, who was injected into the doings through the removal of Lyons, rapped one down in the vicinity of third and short and out-footed, it to the first station; a moment later he was doubled—played into oblivion. The first real safe blow of Johnson came after one man was down in the tenth. Torrente drew the safety, and it afterwards turned into the winning score. Starks, pitching for the Giants, matched all that Johnson showed. The visitors only touched his offering for four blows of credit; one in the second, one in the fifth, one in the sixth and one in the eighth. Starks displayed hurling class in the fifth, when after Kenyon, the first man up in that inning had hit for three bases, Starks fanned the next two men, walked the next and tossed out the next man him himself, and the next son's circle of pitching savors much in record as stupidness on the part of his infield mates allowed Brown to heat out an infield blow in the seventh; only for that the A's hurler would have went nine and one-third innings before a safe hit was annexed by the opposition.

Pitcher Kenyon retired the Giants in one, two, three order in all other innings, save one. A base on balls, a sacrifice and a wild pitch gave the Indians one run in the second frame, and they scored two more runs in the third on a double, a base on balls and a single.

CHICAGO GIANTS TO PLAY RUBE SUNDAY CHICAGO GIANTS TO PLAY RUBE SUNDAY Joe Green Will Lead His New and Revised Lineup Against Foster's Men Here Sunday. A great surprise is in store for Schorling park tandem next Sunday when Joe Green trots out his new collection of baseball players who will contest with the American Giants for local honors upon the diamond. Green has just succeeded in prying loose from Kansas City a batch of high class playing material, and reports has it that the new acquisitions must be pitched to the major leagues to a cost that makes them size invariably with the best on the Major Colored circuit, if not a little better than many. In order to assemble the aggregation that Green will show here Sunday, the Chicago veteran manager was compelled to trade, sell exchange draft and buy. Green's promising young catcher, Frank Duncan, went to Kansas City in the exchange of material and Green, not only grabbed the classy Monarch's catcher, but he draggednetted First-Baseman Hawkins and others who will have to be seen in order to give the Chicago manager the credit due for his efforts in building a real playing machine. Big Taylor, undoubtedly one of the very best burlers on the circuit, will work the Sunday game, and the teams that have beaten this big yellow are too scarce to recall. A real battle is on tap for Sunday and it looks like a slab duel, with a fine chance to see national champions John Hawkins who hit the world's record drive recently in Cincinnati—measure arms with Torrence, Lyons and other heavy clouters of the Foster crew. The game is called at 3 p. m., at 39th and Wentworth Ave. MARSHALL BLANKS A'S, 4-0. Kansas Jack Uses the White-Wash Brush on to Last League Foe. CH1CAGO. III., June 11.—The Indianapolis A. B. C's didn't come close to scoring in the face of the wicked hurling of Jack Marshall in the opening game here last Saturday. The A's grabbed but four safe blows in the nine frames, and but one or two innings did more than three men face the local moundsman. Marshall blanked Columbus in the opening game here, allowing but three safe blows, and the Indianapolis' fared but little better. In the good ball, but the Giants managed to blow what hits they acquired, then the visitors' defense wobbled in the tight places, making a win rather easy for the Foster crowd.

DETROIT, Mich., June 12.—Detroit Stars won both games of the double header at Mack Park Sunday, 6 to 4 and 7 to 3. The first game was won in the ninth Warfield driving the ball over the right field fence for a home run with Force on second. Columbus held the lead for six minutes through the seventh frame of Wilhelm. In the seventh frame the Stars bunched four hits, a sacrifice and base on balls, giving them four runs. Columbus tied the score in the ninth on extra base hits by Thomas and Alexander. Cooper pitched well, letting the visitors down with only one earned run. In the second game Force had too much stuff for the visitors, allowing them but two hits, one of which was a homer over the right field wall. Ziegler, a cub pitcher, worked the last two innings for the Stars. Scores: First Game Detroit Stars AB H O A Warfield, 4 1 5 4 Reese, 1f 4 0 0 Riggs, 1f 1 3 4 F.

The northern Republicans are bowing and scraping to the Southerners and the average outsider would believe that the North has come to the conclusion that they were fighting for foolish prin- ciples in the Civil War. Secretary of the Navy Denby, in making a Memorial Day speech at the National Cemetery in Beaufort, N. C., praised the Confederate dead and paid wonderful eulogies to their valor. His utterances rankle with bias and narrowness of the real causes behind that great war—Slavery. The great pity is that be- cause of less questionable utterances against the Irish and the Senate he recalled Rear Admiral Sims from England on a leave of absence. Harding appointed Denby. Remember the Editor’s word: “Beware the Ides of March.” President Harding, in his Memorial Day address at Arlington Cemetery, states that the real cause of the Civil War was not to crush Slavery, but to preserve the Union. We all know that was true, but what can be the President’s idea in bringing up that point if not to make the Southerners feel good. Slavery still exists in this country and Governor Dorsey of Georgia has called the attention of the world to it. President Harding can make no compromise with evil or evildoers and live up to his promises before election, Promises are such empty things anyway and no one expected him to make bias good, not even Henry “Linc” Johnson and Perry Howard. Woodrow Wilson sealed his lips when this country was in the throes of spasmodic race wars and it is possible that the new admin- istration has adopted the same policy. Nothing has yet been said concerning Tulsa. In Washington, D. C., at the corner of Vermont Avenue and K. St,, is located the Department of Justice Building. It is now under the control of Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty, who was recently appointed to that position by President Harding. | tn that building segregation signs now hang, or rather remain, read— for White only—and others which read—for Colored only. This was one of the great objections to the Democratic rule in Washing- ton. How does the Republican differ? President Harding will very likely appoint Ex. President Taft to the position of Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Taft is a jelly-fish and has never had the moral courage to give the black man a square deal, and Mr. Harding knows this as well as he knew that all of the colored people of ‘North Carolina objected to the sepcisinett ae ree ee office of United ae ttorney for Carolina. enemies are gaining power the new administration, but the Editor wrote last summer of the “Hoax of Harding,” but was reviled and ridiculed.

In recent racial conflicts, to wit, the Elaine, Arkansas holocaust, the Chicago fratricide, and the Tulsa massacre, it is surprisingly noticeable that the whites are showing incendiary tendencies and have in several instances used fire as means of destroying black people and their property. This is an extremely dangerous innovation which may reek havoc with America’s valuable possessions and reduce its wealth to ashes and debris. It has been claimed by several psychologists that the black man’s progress in America has been due to his habits of imitation. They claim he has, ape-like, adopted the customs and conventions of the white man’s civilization. If this is true, there is imminent danger of his seizing the flaming torch and in reprisal burning down his oppres- sor’s belongings. Even if the contentions of the lop-sided psycholo- gists are untrue it is not inconceivable to presume that bleeding, in- furiated and terrorstricken black people will some day see red and set fire to the homes of those who have made their life a veritable hell on earth and have already razed their dwellings to the ground. Danger, which threatens the very vitals of America, stalks grimly azound and Congress needs only to wipe away its tears for Belgium, for Ireland, for Armenia and for China, to behold it. America is perched upon the crater of an active volcano which may break out in eruption at any moment and the boiling lava of race hatred and lawlessness will pour over it as it did upon Pompeii of yore. The seething caldron of race friction bubbles all over America. It is no longer sectional. It is national and only action by the Nation itself can cool its infernal heat and passion. In Tulsa, ten thousands of black people were made the victims of the white man’s torch. Millions of dotlars were irrevocably lost to them because of exemption clauses in their insurance policies from Joss by riot or civil disorder and homelessly and hungry they now dwell with only the canopy of heaven above their heads. The fire- bugs of Tulsa were aided by civic authorities and aeroplanes. The black people had no authorities to protect them nor any air ships from which to drop flaming turpentine bombs, but they had matches and enough of them to destroy the entire accumulations of America. Suppose Tulsa had been entirely destroyed and both black and white had used fire? Who knows but that all of Oklahoma would not have arisen in race war? Suppose all of Oklahoma had been razed to the ground? The wildfire of mob madness would have no doubt broken out all over America and no prophet could forecast what would result from such an awful reign of terror, The black man in America occupies a position different from that of anybody else in the world. There is no parallel to be found now nor even in any history of the past. He has many hues and colors and when his face is white he is never molested and is even allowed to learn all of the white man’s military, political and eco- nomic secrets. The white man may destroy all of the black men with dark faces but their brothers of lighter hue will be left with matches to destroy America. The government of this great nation cannot escape the necessity of preserving the Union and must view with calm, cool reason the bare facts and then create legislation to prevent the ultimate conflagration of races which mow threatens. The thoughts of reprisals lurk in the hearts of those who see their brothers lynched and mothers and babes as well as their homes and houses burned. The black people should not be brutally driven to the wall and be forced to use diabolical weapons of the whites. The government should not sit idly by and see them resort to the torch in self-defense and then see great destructions result from such malefactions, America must turn the faces of her coast guards inland for awhile and quell the awful disorder which now exists. This disorder is the result of loose government and race antipathy and it is too well known how it has already resulted in horrible crimes and ter- rible destruction. Let our Congress and State authorities wake up to the great danger that is imminent. Let them realize the possi- bilities of crushing losses and unspeakable disaster. Let them check conflagration and race warfare and without passion consider what a few matches can do to matchless America! . oe Attention Ministers! If the ministers of Chicago are very anxious to destroy vicious conditions which exist in the vicinity of their parishes, they can well at this time join in a determined effort to eliminate them. If the cohorts of Christianity and morality were as shrewdly and diplo- matically organized as the local political machines, the propaganda that was inspired by Jesus Christ would strike home into the hearts of the people. The prominent ministers of Chicago are needed on the street corners, in the public forums, and, in fact everywhere the unreached throngs of black people congregate. As things now exist only the ‘uncalled “fanatic” can be seen on the public highways giving vent to his incoherent thought. The ministers’ union can and will receive the support of the younger blood which is desirous of a moral awak- ‘ening in this great city. Will they act? phe Health Hints Dr. Troy Smith ‘The United States Public Health Service has published a book entitled, “Today's World Problem in Disease “Today's World ar eee.) | erga ee book deals with the prevention of venereal diseases. and is indeed a very good non- technical disens- sion of syphilis and — gonorrhea, ‘This same book nay be had by writing to the U, §. Public, Health Service, Treasury Department, Washington, D.C. In looking through the pages nt tie han tias T see some very startling figures con- cerning the prevalence of syphilis among Negroes, The estimates for whites are given as follows: "A survey of British working men seemingly in good health, made by Collie, showed 9 per cent to have syphilis. Class varia- tion and age are a large factor in es- timating the prevalence of the disease and no consideration is complete which omits them, Col. E, B. Veddor in his book on “Syphilis and Public Health” came to the conclusion that 20 per cent represented a fair average for the amount of syphilitic infection anwong young men who enlist in the army and among men representing the grade which applies for commissions, trains at West Point or enters our colleges 2 to 5 per cent ts the approx- imate prevalence, Among hospitals patients estimates range from 10 to 20 per cent based, however, quite largely upon the blood test and med- ical examinations which invariably result ina high figure. Among young women Veddor estimates that the per- centage fluctuates between 3 and 20 per cent depending on age, marital conditions, social status, etc. Among private patients from 10 to 20 per cent have syphilis; among children 3 to 10 per cent, Among Negroes he gives the fol- lowing very startling figures, those in apparent health the percentage varies from 25 to 30 per cent. Among the sick from 40 to 50 per cent, Among criminals (white) the range is from 20 10 40 per cent. Among the insane (male white) 20 to 35 per cent. Among prostitutes. from $0 to 100, per cent These ace indeed very startling figures and should have our earnest consid- eration and investigation. “To say that among Negroes in apparent health one out of each four and those taken to the hospital oftimes for other complaints THE CHICAGO WHIP 2 SSS SS | aa HUTT | 4 | TAT, p g YI HHT ea in js “tine abont” a | | according to these figutes it is twice @ = Sng the witter cep in the ces] ses where weralwaye expect 2 high iit nue to eng we are net en ase |ereal race will No! longer hold espe- Htecs'on ase php me tha we get busy with this-disease and elimi-| il) te it belore Weetisinates the ace The climination olfethis disease lies in Bice | ee | line donucta SeRUnMRe tietetrore, Gove a } |ciined. out in the! proper recnife ] Ss SSQ Loy" FS f@ | SAQGyrce, | | NZ RS OPUS <3} { wi 7 hs rd Wr = Ss SAN i / Sy Ru f a | DB@ (RS / | [ NO & , | NSS y) | X ONAN ENP a | Ne 8 @XN \ } ashe “Ss N ® Ws 5 WE @ | 3 se. fa A\Y ao, | ae ~amitimanecme! a Be ‘ = Soe I GRINS Sau, j | OR Gage heck is = BD ay aS | _ Seas F a | i @ | : (a) | Put your money lo | work and watch it (prow ‘ . 5 : | ory moested: nn se paying en- | eyprise 1s he anon ney ots ecarney In | «your, army.
