Tells Committee He Has Made Up His Mind, Sink Or Swim
WASHINGTON, August 6—President Harding has finally torn aside the veil of doubt surrounding his attitude on federal appointments in specific, and the race question in general.
The incident occurred when a committee appeared before the President and invited him to deliver an address before the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. in September. The committee was composed of Archibald H. Grimke, Charles Cottrill Shelby J. Davidson, and J. A. Cobb.
The President indicated that if unable to appear in person, he would see to it that one of his representatives filled the engagement.
In the course of the conversation a member of the committee suggested that it would be helpful if the Black Race in America be informed as to what it might expect from the Harding administration.
Mr. Harding credited with the following statement in reply:
"Gentlemen: I am very thoroughly convinced in my mind as to the policy that I am going to inaugurate with reference to appointments, and that is, I am not going to appoint any colored men to public office in the Southern States, but there will be some appointments in the Northern States. This thing called 'RACE PREJUDICE' you cannot down by battling it, and the only salvation, as I see it, for the colored man in the South, is to FALL IN THE RANKS BEHIND-THE WHITE LEADERSHIP until he can, acting through southern legislatures, work out his destiny. THIS IS MY POLICY, AND I AM GOING TO FOLLOW IT. LIVE OR DIE, SINK OR SWIM."

NEW YORK CITY, August 6.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, has announced that the receipts to date of its fund for the relief and legal defense of the Tulsa riot victims amounted to $2,248.87.
In connection with the announcement that funds were being distributed through a local committee of the Association in conjunction with the recognized Tulsa Colored Citizens Committee, the National Association for the Relief and安慰ment of Colored People issued a warning to the public that frauds were being committed by people traveling over the country and soliciting funds, alleging that they were working for the relief of the Tulsa riot victims.

PLAYS PEACEMAKER,
GETS BITTEN ON ARM
Peacemakers have always played in a thankless role. Especially so did Henry Jarden, a barber, 2965 State St., when, on July 31, he attempted to separate Abbs Singleton from Miss Alberta Brook, whom Singleton was giving a sound thrashing. They both turned on him, and he was subsequently taken to the Iroquois Hospital, badly bitten about the arms.
ESCAPE DEATH BY MIRACLE IN AUTO CRASH
Doctor And Society Girls Climb Through Car Windows When Ford Is Splintered
Four people miraculously escaped death Thursday afternoon, when an automobile was wedged between two cars at 46th St. and Indiana Ave. They were Dr. and James Lee, 202 E. 35th St, and Misses Helen and Melba Perry, well known Chicago society girls.
The automobile, a Ford, was being driven east in 46th St, at Indiana Ave. A south-bound Indiana Ave. car was standing at the intersection, when a northbound Indiana Ave. car struck the auto, swerved it to the north, and jammed it into the scant two feet between the cars.
The automobile was telescoped and completely demolished. The occupants of the automobile were so closely pinned in the wreckage between the cars that their only possible method of abandoning the wreck was through the windows of the southbound car.
Wrecking cars found it impossible to extricate the automobile from between the cars. Finally, after much pulling in opposite directions, one car against the other, the cars were separated.
The remarkable feature to the accident was that no one was injured. Dr. Lee was slightly bruised about the legs.
CHOIR SINGS'CROWN HIM.' AFTER JACK JOHNSON PREACHES
NEW YORK CITY, Aug. 6- Jack Johnson was given a royal reception at the Baptist Tabernacle, 125th St. and Madison Ave., last week when he appeared there upon the occasion of a rally for the church.
During the reception he assumed the role of preacher, and said, among other things:
"The Bible says to a man, 'Take a wife,' It doesn't say take a black wife, a Chinaman or any one else. Why should the world hate me for marrying the woman I love? I am sure I have lived up to all rules any loving husband would observe."
"I want to let you know," he said, his shaven head shining, "that the Bible teaches every one to treat the other as he wishes to be treated. Let any one who has not sinned arise."
Jack glanced about, but no one ventured to stand up. He proceeded:
"I have committed a sin, why not help me instead of trample on me? I don't profess to be a Christian but my heart does. I have never done a wrong to my fellow man. My religion is, if I can do no good, to do no bad. Thank God! Johnson has broad shoulders, a good heart and smiles in his troubles. And I have traveled the world around, and nothing exists like it does in this country. Nature teaches equality of color. I hope to see my race have that equality. My motto is to learn to forget and to forgive. May God bless you all."
The organ tuned up and the choir sang "Crown Him." The pastor thereupon captured the floor once more and kept his position until Jack Johnson was escorted back to his automobile and ran while Max Schmaa-Duty Restore the Collector arrived to gather in 10 per cent of the fees charged by the church authorities.

BRINGS WIFE HOME AT 3:00
At 3:00 a. m. Sunday morning Otto Douglas, 31, 3407 Prairie Ave., a public chauffeur, rolled up in front of 4510 Calumet Ave. He discharged his passenger. Mrs. Mary Mason. At this moment, John Mason, her husband, rushed from the house and administered a knife wound to the hapless driver. Mason, it is said, did not stop to ascertain whether Douglas was responsible for his wife's late hours, but like the messenger who brought the king bad news, he had to suffer the punishment.

Mrs. Fisher claims that last Wednesday morning about 3:00 a. m., during the absence of her husband. Pratt came to her room while she was asleep and pulled the covers from her. She said that after telling him she would tell her husband, Jackson went to his room.
Mrs. Fisher then dressed and went to the police station and laid charges against Pratt. She claims that this is his second offense.

WHO BREAKS ENGAGEMENT

Subsequently, however, Miss McCarty saw fit to change her mind. She broke the engagement. — Goaded by jeaousy, disappointment and wounded pride, Adams took a gun early Saturday morning, and going to her home, shot her three times. Her wounds are painful, but not fatal. Adams has been arrested.
CATCH DOCTOR FORGING SICK, DEATH CLAIMS
Georgia Insurance Company Unearths Big Get-Rich- Quick Scheme
LUMPKIN, Ga., August 6—Attorney Hollis, Fort. of Americus, has taken out warrants against Dr. O. A. Lockhart, a physician of this city, and T. J. Coleman, an insurance man of Americus, charging them with forging scores of sick claims.
The method of operation, it is said, was for Dr. Lockhart to forge sick benefit claims, turn them over to Coleman, who properly endorsed them and forwarded them to the office, deducting the amounts shown on the claims in remitting money collected by him in premiums for the company as its district agent. Such claims when properly approved are accepted by the home office as vouchers, it being the custom to permit the agents to settle sick claims upon presentation of a physician's certificate.
Sick claims were said to have been frequent from Richland, Lumpkin, and Plains, particularly the Stewart county towns. Finally they began to pour in from Richmond at a rate that aroused the suspicion of the home office, with a wide variety of diseases and ailments named which were not generally prevalent. An inspector was sent to Stewart county to make an investigation. He called on a number of persons whose certificates were used to obtain certificates to whom the claims were supposed to have been paid. In no instance, according to Inspector Ducket, was one found who had made sick claims or who had been visited by Lockhart, who had signed the claims on which payments were made.
Dr. Lockhart was called to Americus for a conference. He denied any irregularity. But later, when the investigation drew to a close and the evidence began to pile up it is said Coleman decided to turn informer on an agreement of immunity, which agreement is said to have been made, and the prosecution then centered on the physician.
ROLL OFF $50,000 IN BOOZE AS BANDITS HOLD CROWD
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Aug. 6—Liquors valued at $50,000 were stolen from a warehouse here last week by twenty men, twelve of whom were white. Eight men rolled the barrels out of the warehouse into a waiting truck while twelve white men held the crowds back with pistols. Traffic was stopped, and those who poked their heads out of windows were told to take them in.
Horrible Alleys!!
The alleys of the southside have gotten to the point now that they are a menace to public health. Garbage and thrash has been allowed to stand in the alleys to such an extent that in many places the debris resembles small mountains. Flies gather in swarms and form the last link in the spreading of germs and breeding of disease. The alleys under the Elevated are strewn with tin cans, boxes and all manner of garbage and ashes. Complaints do not seem to have any effect. The situation now demands the attention of the Commissioner of Public Health if the health of the citizens of the southside is to be safe-guarded.

SHOOT DOWN STEPFATHER FOR DEATH THREAT
Terror-Stricken Mother Hides
All Night Under Bed
To Escape Death
SPARTANSBURG, S. C., Aug. 6—Virgil and Melvin Scruggs, 18 and 14 years of age respectively, have been lodged in jail on charges of murder, following the killing here late last week of their stepfather, Tiller Patterson.
The coroner immediately impanelled a jury, but no testimony was taken, because there were no eye witnesses, and because the boys admitted their act, and voluntarily surrendered.
Threatened to Kill Mother
Patterson, who was the second husband of the Scruggs boys' mother, had become separated from her, and on her refusal to live with him, had threatened her life.
Thursday Patterson went to the house with the avowed intention of making good this threat. Seeing him approaching the house at a distance, Mrs. Patterson took the lock.
Sleeps Under Bed
Not finding her, Patterson slept all night in the bed, while Mrs. Patterson slept under the bed. When he left next morning he took a shotgun with him, saying he was going to shoot her the next time he saw her. He hid the gun under a house. The boys followed him, found the gun, and that night when he went for it, they shot and killed him.
DR. C. T. WALKER DIES AT AUGUSTA
AUGUSTA, Ga., Aug. 6—Rev. Charles T. Walker, one of the foremost ministers of the Baptist Church in America, passed away at his home here Friday. The funeral is to be held Thursday afternoon of this week. Dr. Walker was vice-president of the National Baptist Convention of the United States; vice-president of the Georgia Baptist State Convention, and pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church, Angusta, Ga., for the past forty years. He founded the Colored Men's Branch Y. M. C. A., One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street, New York, and also founded the colored Y. M. C. A. in Angusta, and was president of the latter organization from its founding, some nineteen years ago, to the time of his death. He has traveled extensively in Europe and the Holy Land, and was the author of a number of books of travel as well as sermons. His church in Augusta was the place of worship of hundreds of Northern winter tourists, among them former President Taft and John D. Rockefeller.

EX-SERVICE MEN HORRIFIED AT WAR DEPARTMENT PROPOSAL
VETS PROTEST TUSKEGEE AS HOSPITAL SITE
Say Even Suggestion Of Putting Motion In Authority Is Insult
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 6—Announcement from the War and Treasury departments to the effect that Tuskegee is being considered as a location for a hospital for wounded veterans of the World War has aroused a storm of protest from ex-service men throughout the country. It is understood that the plan is, in some way, to connect the hospital with Tuskegee Institute. Many ex-service man take it as a distinct insult that they be asked to submit to authority of Major Moton in any form. It is recalled that the Tuskegee principal incurred the undying enmity and disrespect of many doughboys in France, when, after the armistice, he made a tour of the camps, and advised the soldiers to return to America "modest and unassuming." Major Moton's speeches to the soldiers in France were said to be of such a disgusting nature, that many of the meetings broke up in disorder, and the officers experienced trouble in quitting the men.
BASEBALL FAN IS CUT IN ARGUMENT AT GIANT'S PARK
So intense is becoming the rivalry between the teams in the National Negro Baseball League that their adherents in the bleachers cannot restrain themselves from violence. Sunday saw another cutting scrape staged between supporters of rival teams.

John Strader, 24, 3334 Prairie Ave. itinerant owner of "hot tamales," one of the tribe who have distinguished themselves by selling the Mexican delicacies from a renovated baby carriage on South Side streets, was painfully bruised in the back July 30, when he was struck from behind at 54th St and Wabash Ave. He was taken to nearby hospital for treatment.
HUBBY FACES PROBLEM AS WIFE FIGHTS MOTHER
Filial love struggled with marital affection for predominance in the breast of Herman Davis, 28. 4316 Evans Ave, as he watched his wife, Mrs. Nancy Davis, fighting his mother, Mrs. Irene Trippett, July 29.
Finally he decided that regardless of the merits of the fight, it should stop, so he paid the price.
As usual, the pacemaker got the worst of it. Davis was taken to the Provident Hospital with a knife wound in his chest.

THE CHICAGO WHIP
RELIEF OBTAINED. "LEGISLATIVE RELIEVERS" QUIT
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug 6—With the appointment of Pwee W. Howard and Henry Lincoln Johnson to Federal jobs, it doth appear that the committee on Legislative Relief is about to be relieved of its stomach troubles and the juno of the Lime Kiln Club at Pennsylvania Avenue, may look to the Lord, sing the doxology and be dismissed Since these two picturesque political worthes, the Wandering Ministrel of Mississippi and the Overripe Peach of Georgia, have secured billets according them visible means of support and are equipped with regulation nose-bags well filled from the public crib, the dense smoke-screen of "legislative relief" may well become disillusionment.
Counsellor Howard, whose knowledge of Homer is confined to the classic number that Babe Ruth knocked, and whose versatility in the law includes all of the revised reports of Mississippi police courts, was secretary protem and treasurer de facto of the self constituted committee that sought funds of beguiled and patriotic colored individuals and organizations throughout the country. There is a rude awakening due to these poor, misguided people who handed over their pound of flesh, ostensibly for "legislative relief" from the discriminations and reprisals that surround them, but really to underwrite a quadrennial meal ticket for a pair of political swashbucklers, the equal of whom would be hard to find beneath the Jolly Rogers that floatate the Spanish Main in the halcyon and romantic days of Captain Kidd. That the Wandering Minstrel and the Peach should be legislatively relieved should be a matter of dual congratulation to them, but to those confiding men and women who parked their dollars in their hands for another cause what of them?
Speaking of relief and relieving we are reminded that it is being currently rumored that Col. Johnson is seeking harbor in the Garvey movement. We get this dope right from the stable boss, who got it from the trainer, who was seen in close contab with the cocky. It is being said that the Colonel and the Little Corporal are both in a receptive mood for the consideration of the President of the big African enterprises. Matty Matthews, athlete and lawyer, already in out of the wet under the Garvey tent, seems to be the sheerest. Someon and prime inter-mental obsession on behalf of portal. However, Matty may not full back for Harvard for nothing. He knows a thing or two about side-stepping. Maybe we shall see what we shall see. Garvey may yet escane
There are positive pathos in the plaintive perigrinations of Charles Alpha Cottrell, of Ohio, who, by all of the rules of the game, should be entitled to the consideration of the administration. Cottrell presents a pathetic figure as he wends his weary way along the devious high-ways, byways and hedges from Daugherty to Doughnuts, and back again, 'twiti elation and depression, sometimes up in the air of hope and sometimes down in the slough of despond. His step is not as elastic as was its wont in the idees of March, when he appeared in Washington as the official receiver of firing telephone and the diaphram of the city, and all matters as those two instruments pertained to the brethren. His air of assurance is gone with the weary days of waiting and his cane does not click the hopeful cadences of old.
Mr. Cottrill aspires to be Registrar of the Treasury, but it doth appear that somebody has gummed up the cards. Nevertheless, our hero is walking and waiting and watching, to and fro, hither and yon, from hope to despair, from Daugherty to Dougherty in courage, truly Cottrill, of Ohio, is the star in the administration's sad political tragedy.
To daub the drab picture with further gloom, Robert Robusto Church, the young Lochinvar from out of the West, after a brief fling and flounce about in the seats of the mighty, has folded his tent and, like the Arab of old, hied himself back to the oasis of Memphis, leaving the "Relievers" who have and those who haven't connected with the crib, to their fate. It is said that the young Robert is weaker, wiser, and is pervaded by a more subdued ambition. This young Moses smote the rock but the water was reticent. Behold the second act of the tragedy, because Bob is of all things sincere. He felt that he had a purpose in life and it seems a real shame to discourage him.
PARKER APPEALS $10 FINE
Richard E. Parker, 3457 State St. who was fined $10 and costs Tuesday morning in the Harrison St. court, on charges of attacking his stenographer, Miss Cleola Walker, 2956 Federal St. has announced that he will take an appeal from the decision.
Although witnesses claim that they saw Parker choke the girl, he says that the testimony of his witnesses to the effect that the three who testified against him were not in the room at the time, was ignored.

COUNT CARMICHAEL SPEAKS BEFORE LARGE AUDIENCE
THE FIRST WEDDING OF THE MARRIED GENTLEMAN
F. R. Carmichael
Count F. R. Carmichael, well known in commercial circles, spoke Sunday afternoon, July 24th, to a large audience at The Auditorium on South America and the commercial facilities it offers to the world and America in particular. Having lived in Brazil, Argentina and other South American countries he was in a position to handle the subject in a manner that resulted in his being enthusiastically received.
After addressing his audience for fully an hour, he was asked a number of questions. Some person wanted to know what Mr. Carmichael thought was the best thing for the American Negro to do in order to improve his condition. Mr. Carmichael stated that it was a difficult question to answer in a few words, but there were three things in his judgment that the Negro must do and they were, first, secure financial standing by the accumulation of wealth, second, change in his present leadership and third, a greater foothold in the industrial activities of the country. He also stated that he thought the idea of going back to Africa was good and when asked why he thought so replied with the question, "Why should the Jews go back to Palestine when there is not a blade of green grass there?"
"If the 400,000,000 Negroes in this world, not counting the thousands who are passing for white, should contribute a dollar apple towards their own freedom, don't you see what a power the Negroes would have when you consider that there are only eight billions of dollars in circulation?" In this same connection Mr. Carmichael said that he agreed with Marcus Garvey in that he was advocating an economic program with a definite idea to increase his country's standing in the commercial world.
Mr. Carmichael was congratulated on all sides by those who had listened to his lecture.

SINGERS ATTRACT MUCH ATTENTION IN PAGEANT OF PROGRESS PARADE
The parade of the great Pageant of Progress began immediately after the pressing of the electric button by Vice-President Coolidge in the east, Saturday noon date and Twelfth Street with Michigan Boulevard the place. Nearly every big industry was represented in decorated and garlanded motors and other vehicles. Bands of both sexes of musicians played lively airs as they marched down this great thorofare. An estimated half million people lined the path of the marchers.
Many Negroes Taking Part
At the foot of the Logan Statue in Grant Park, the great Chorus of Prof. J. Wesley Jones appeared at noon singing as only colored singers can. Women in white and men in "palm beaches" made a grand spectacle. Applause was great. In the parade, the float in army drab bearing a miniature section of "no man's land"—colored soldiers "dead" and wounded in the midst of small crosses and artillery debris was the chief feature of our exhibits—which told. It bore the legend on the side "Our Bond in Comradship was Born!"
The Nurses Training School also attracted attention to our work. Each High School Band presented a youth of the Race playing a lead instrument. In the evening at the Pier, the dazzling array of men and women on the race, under Professor Jas. A Mundy called forth rounds of applause for their ability as singers. In both instances—at noon and at evening colored singers opened the Pageant. Both the parade and at the Pier was this an honor. We are to appear the many Gite Clubs united under direction of the noted Miss Panline James Lee and others assisting. Also the Orchestra by Mr. Chas. Mundy (brother of J. A.) will furnish music at the Pier on Douglas Day, August 7th.
Many prominent Ministers, Statesmen and others this day.

FOLLOWERS OF MARCUS GARVEY JAM NEW YORK
By Henry Brown, Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.—With banners gleaming "The New Negro Knows No Fear" Marseus, Garvey, Press, of the U. N. I. A. headed a procession 5 miles long thru the streets of New York. In a glaring banner attached to the rear of Garvey's machine was the sign "FIGHT ON GHANDI" as Garvey reeled and rocked to the tune of "HAIL THE CHIEF."
All Harlem smiled down on Garvey and Garvicts today. The streets were crowded and in the pack and jam were seen banners from Mississippi to British Guam. Garvey in an open Laundret followed directly behind the 15th Regt. band. The President of the U. N. I. A. was greeted all along the way.
It was a galla day and all Harlem turned out to see the Provisional President of Africa and his followers.
MANY WOMEN IN LINE.
Fully three thousand women graced the U. N. E. I. A. parade and the black cross inscribed commanded special attention from the crowd. And the streets of Harlem. The women looked fittingly enough, garbed in white with black trimmings, and with stern faces and the black cross banner flying in the breeze, they like the men marched gallantly behind the leader.
GARVEY
Garvey is beek. He lead fully 8000 of his followers thru the streets of New York today. American negroes like those of foreign birth cheered Marcos as he plained the cause of 40, 600,000. They all took their hats to Garvey and the most conservative of men shouted and applauded him and his followers as the procession was winding its way in the distance.
The horsemen looked grand, there were about 200 of them and they rode with the pump and pride of a victor. The U. N. L. A. cavalrymen are second to none. The throng that passed along the side walk contigued to shout and applaud as this band turned back their music and brought up in the jazziest fashion the tune "There Will be a Hot Time in the Old Town tonight". They are still marching and now a hand painted portrait of Garvey himself passes by. The portrait which is a good one is beheaded in roses and is carried by a young woman who could fittingly be the pride of an artist studio. Again the crowd applauded. It is just one hour now and in the distance can be seen the end of the procession. A little boy who looks to be about the age of four is leading a line of children, they are dressed in black, red and green, the color of the U. N. L. A.
All along the way an uproar continues, they are cheering Garvey, and looking from a window Jack Johnson is seen lookin' gobown smiling. Those in the park and jam of the street who are identified with the colored race can not help but be proud of the procession not if the man.

'WHITE' BLACK MAN KICKED OUT OF ARMY, EXONERATED
NEW YORK CITY, August 6 — The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with offices at 70 Fifth Avenue, New York through its National Secretary, James Weldon Johnson has announced the receipt of a letter from the Adjutant General of the War Department of the rectification of a letter in connection with the dishonorable discharge of Arthur K. Bird, a colored soldier of Company L, 58th Infantry White, But "Colored," Just the Same. According to Mr. Johnson's statement, Arthur K. Bird, on February 1, 1921, upon the solicitation of a recruiting sergeant at Providence, R. L., re-enlisted in the army after having been honorably discharged recently from the 156th Depot Brigade, a colored organization. Mr. Bird called the attention of a clerk that he had been erroneously listed as a white man. The clerk changed his designation under the heading "race" to "colored." Mr. Bird is of such fair complexation as to be easily mistaken for a white man. In spite of this correction, Mr. Bird was sent to the 58th Infantry at Camp Lewis, Washington. Upon arrival at the Camp, he found that the 58th Infantry was a white organization and again notified his Commanding Officer that he was not a white man. He was there upon assigned to special duty.
Dishonorably Discharged
Later, Mr. Bird was dishonorably discharged, the reason being assigned as "trandulent enlistment." In April, this case was referred to the National Office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People after Mr. Bird had been unable to secure correction of the error. The National Office took up the matter immediately with the War Department, demanding a thorough investigation and a correction of the injustice done to Mr. Bird, and the investigation proved him to be right in his contention.
A letter dated July 25th, from P. C. Harris, Adjutant-General, states that:
"After an investigation of these air circumstances connected with the entitlement of the soldier, it has been determined that he was erroneously discharged on the date and at the place mentioned. Upon request, Mr. Biri had forwarded his discharge certificate to this office, which certificate has been cancelled, and in lieu thereof a certificate showing that he is entitled to be regarded as having been honorably discharged from the military service, has been prepared and forwarded this day to him."

"LIBERTY HALL"
INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION OF NEGROES OF THE WORLD
The Universal Negro Improvement Association, under Marcus Garvey has again attracted the attention of the world by holding the second thirty-day convention in Liberty Hall, New York. The second convention opened August 1, to continue through the entire month, with a parade five miles long, it is said. Representatives and delegates from the Black races throughout the world are to be found here.
LIBERTY LIFE CO.OFFERSFINE INVESTMENT
There is no other business so safe guarded by law and so profitable as is the life insurance business. Life insurance stock is listed as class "A" securities by the State of Illinois, which places it in the same category as the stock of banks, trust companies, building and loan associations, government and municipal bonds. In fact, there is no safer investment in the world than class "A" securities. Further proof lies in the fact that in over thirty years not a single Old Testament Insurance Company has ever failed. The four greatest elements in any line of business from the standpoint of the investor age: Demand, safety, profit, management.
Demand
The Negro has been the best insurance prospect for every company organized in this State. Now that there is a real Old Line Legal Reserve Company owned, operated and controlled by Negroes, and which will offer the highest class of insurance, the demand will be tremendous.
Safety
With the entire capital stock of the Liberty Life Insurance Company—$100,000,00 in First Mortgage Bonds on Negro property in Chicago, deposited with the State of Illinois, the very greatest safeguard is afforded.
Profit
Although the business of life insurance in the United States is only three-quarters of a century old, it has assets of nearly $6,000,000,000, or almost 2/3 times the combined capital and surplus of all the National Banks in the United States, and it pays substantial dividends to investors yearly. The stock of Life Insurance Companies is always on the increase.
Management
Just the name of Frank L. Gillespie alone is enough to inspire confidence in the management, but when you look at the board of directors composed of some of the best brains in the United States and the other officers, who have all had tried experience in the business world, and are a success, everyone will realize that the management of the Liberty Life Insurance Company is in competent hands.
We have found that there is not only room, but a demand for this company; and it will be the tireless ambition and effort of the officers and management to make this company the greatest institution that has ever been organized, fostered and supported by the American Negro.
BEAUMONT, Texas, Aug. 6-Alfred Neal, of this city, has invented a unique machine for heavy excavating. The machine is said to successfully perform the work of fifty men. As a result of the success of the new machine, Neal has been awarded the contract for the entire excavation to be done on the new million dollar hotel to be constructed here. In the mechanism of the machine there is a cam which causes the machine to take a step forward each time it automatically loads up full of dirt.

PULLMANPORTER CAUSES CAPTURE OF T. O'CONNOR
ST. PAUL, Minn., Aug. 9—A. B. Legge, a Pullman porter on the Chicago, Great Western Railroad, is responsible for the capture of Tommy O'Connor, Chicago's notorious white gunman hunted for murder through out the United States.
It is doubtful, however, whether Legge will share the reward offered for the slayer.
Legge was making down his berths preparatory to making his run when he noticed someone skulking in the other end of the car. The intruder, who proved later to be O'Connor, refused to leave when ordered by the porter, and Legge bodily kicked him from the platform of the Pullman. O'Connor, the terror of Chicago police, put up no resistance.
The noise attracted yardmen, and they chased him through the yards, finally capturing him.
He was found to be carrying three pistols, and later indicted as Tommy O'Connor.

MAKE PROTEST IN TRAINING CAMP DISCRIMINATION
The National Equal Rights League,
finding that a colored man was denied
admission to the Citizens' Military
Training Camp at Camp Devens, sent
a remonstrance to Secretary of War
John W. Weeks, who hails from Massachussetts. The League also sent a
telegram in support of the remonstrance which read: "L. Wims denied
admission to Citizens' Military Training
Camp for color by Col. Aloe
Equal Rights League asks you to
countermand the denial."
The formal remonstrance read as follows:
Hon. John W. Weeks.
Secretary of War,
Washington, D. C.
Dear Sir—
Mr. L. H. Wims of 66 Elmond Street, W. Somerville, with his application blank for admission to the citizens' Military Training Camp to be held at Camp Devens. Mass., during August, applied for physical examination at the army base in South Boston, Mass. He was refused examination for admission by Col. Aloe solely because of his race and color, and was told that in any event, Colored citizens would have to be segregated. The National Equal Rights League proclaims this denial of admission to this Citizens' Camp located in Massachusetts as a capital of equality of rights and privileges because race. It is contrary to the letter and spirit of both the Constitution of Massachusetts and of the United States of America.
We respectfully request and urge that you cause this discrimination and indignity to the Colored citizens of our state to be undone and that such a worthy citizen as Mr. Wims, be admitted to the Citizens' Military Training Camp at Camp Devens, Mass, without bar because he is an American of African extraction.
We appeal to you to open the door for your Colored fellow-citizen of your own state of Mass., to this Citizens' Military Training in accord with the principles of your illustrious predecessors in the Senate, the lamented Geo. F. Hoar and Charles Sumner.

New Trinity M. E. Church—

New Trinity is to be the Rome to which all roads will lead Sunday Aug. 14th. The imposing structure to the right of the big church is New Trinity Community House on the first floor of which is Rev. G. W Baker's office. The writer journeyed there last Monday to get from the minister what was meant by the coming "Re-opening Day," which by the way, is all one hears around the big church.
"You see," began the minister, "it is customary in inaugurating any big movement to acquaint the general public with the movement in a formal way and hear the public's opinion of us and our intentions. New Trinity, you know, is the youngest big church, as it is the biggest young church in the city, with plans far too extensive to ever outline in an interview, so we have set aside a whole day, the second Sunday in August, on which to formally introduce ourselves to the public and take the public in on our plans. This means that Aug. 14th will be a full day with us from the time the doors are thrown open to those who worship at the six o'clock prayer service until the final word is said by former Gov. Chas. S. Deneen, whose night address will close the day's program.
The Pastors of all the principle churches have been invited and signified their intention to attend with their congregations at the great platform meeting at 3:00 in the afternoon. That is about all there is to be said" concluded the minister.
The rest was to be seen, decorators, everywhere decorators. An official pondering over estimates for some repair job here and there. The dying notes from some of the great pipe organs trembled on the air from some distant part of the great auditorium, indicated that Director of Music Bryant was making some plans too Up in the big gym Dr. Pryor is superintending some decorating getting ready for an opening of his own to be announced later. Superintendent Rice of the Sunday School is to organize the Epworth League next Sunday at 6:00 P. M. Class leader Smith carried off the banner Friday night of last week. He had the largest collection and the most members.

Y.M.C.A.SUMMER SCHOOL CLOSES GREAT SEASON
By N. Barnett Dodson
HARPERS FERRY, W. Va.—The Fourteenth Session of the Chesapeake Summer School for the training of Y. M. C. A. workers, held at the Storer College, Harper's Ferry, W. Va., during the month of July, came to a successful close Wednesday.
A striking feature of this school from its beginning has been the spirit of good will and fellowship. Its spirit was apparently more manifest at this session than any previous session. Every day from 6:00 A. M. to 8:00 P. M. something was going on in class, study, lecture or recreation under competent direction and leadership. From the beginning men of both races from different sections of the country, have taken part in the school. An unusually fine spirit of co-operation existed this year on the part of white and colored leaders. It is equally important to note that the school has been self-supporting for the past two years. This is made possible through fees and contributions from our own Associations.
Dr. George E. Haynes gave a series of lectures and the industrial situation as it affects the colored laborer and made suggestions as to how the Association might increase its help. This was followed with definite program of work by Dr. T. T. Foster of the Industrial Department of the International Committee. Strong emphasis was placed on the religious and social work of the Association.
A very helpful course of lectures, followed by actual demonstration, the held in recreative games and exercise, was given by William J. Faulk St. Brigham Atlantic.
Mr. Philo C. Dix, State Secretary of Kentucky, gave two splendid addresses. Mr. Dix has been a forward looking friend of the Colored Work since his entrance into Association work. Two years ago he placed a colored man on the State Committee of Kentucky. This is the first time the race has been given such representation. Mr. Dix has always stood for the finest and best things in inter-racial matters. He won the hearts of those who never in mind were interested in the bond of friendship with those who have known him in the past
Mr. Augustus Nash, Religious Work Secretary of the Cleveland, Ohio, Y. M. C. A. rendered a wonderful service in his personal conversations with the men. An afternoon spent with a group of colored laymen made up of professional and business men he reported as one of the interesting experiences in his whole life. When through he declared these men to be most remarkable in their keenness of insight regarding great questions confronting them and the public and then declared that he was absolutely straight and clean. What a blessing it would be if such an experience could be repeated with different groups throughout the entire country. Jesse E. Moorland, Senior Secretary of the International Y. M. C. A. Committee was the center of attraction for guidance and inspiration throughout the session of the school.
Some laymen have attended the different sessions of the school but a larger number this year than any previous session. Their presence proved most helpful and inspiring and it is hoped that as the years go by their attendance will increase and that definite help may be given members of Committees of Management and other laymen which shall enable them to carry on their more effectively.
This year a few of the younger ministers were in attendance seeking especially practical methods in recreation and boys' work. They also took an active part in the other activities of the school. This seems a very promising adventure and plans will be made which will meet the needs of such ministers as may desire to attend future sessions of the school.
A considerable amount of time was given to the consideration of Boys' Work. The Association has no greater challenge than the boy and his challenge must be effectively met.
A Committee was appointed to consider the feasibility of securing a permanent site for the school where a real training center to meet the pressing demands of the Association may be developed. The plan to hold a National Conference of the Colored Men's Department was considered and heartily endorsed by those in attendance. The time and place of this important conference will be announced later.

"NOSEY" SEES ALL
KNOWS ALL
A man in a suit bending down to knock on a door.
NOSEY VISITED the Monday morning "breakfast dance" last Monday to see the gentlemen and ladies of leisure "strut their early morning stuff." Nosey took a back seat as he was not "up to" all of the new dances. He made note of all of the "busy men and ladies of affairs" as they tripped the light as well as heavy fantastic toes. But the thing that almost knocked Nosey over was that light-fitted "socializing lawyer who never misses any dance no matter what time of day or morning it is scheduled." Nosey followed him through his many girations, keeping a glistened head as he glistened in the light of the morning and wondered what a splendid office force he must have to carry on all of his business during the money making hours of the day while he exercised his long legs and said pretty things to each and every lady. It is all in knowing how.
ON SATURDAY MORNING we were down on State Street looking for an old friend. Near the corner of Eighth St he was approached by a gentlemen in tatters who did not have to tell him that he was from the South—just from the South. The man evidently took Nosey for a "cracker" because he said, "Mister, I just got off a freight train. I'm broke, can't work. Give me the price of some coffee and rolls. I do not want to ask a colored man for anything." Nosey smiled as this was not the first time that he had been taken for one of the farer race. Nosey asked the man why he did not want to ask a colored man for money. The man replied, "Oh, I dunno, but I feel 'shamed to ask one of my own and again I might strike it lucky and then I wouldn't want to have him say he helped me get up in the world." Nosey gave up his little coin and told the brother that some day it might happen that one of his own might re-mind him that he got help from a colored man when he was down just the same. He did not understand but Nosey did.
SOME PEOPLE HAVE a queen way of getting even. Nosey saw one neighbor throw some garbage over the back fence into the yard next door out 47th Street way. The next day, Nosey came by and saw a load of bricks in the yard from whence the garbage had come. Nosey "snooped around" a bit and discovered that the man, in order to get even for the garbage that had been thrown in his yard had paid for the bricks and the hauling of the same making sure that they were delivered when the people who threw the garbage were gone in the bricks, bricks and are still wondering what to do with them and they way finally decide to throw them over the fence like the garbage and then "the fun will begin."
EVERY WEDNESDAY nigh there is held a meeting on Grand Blvd. Those who meet belong to a new sect that have a new belief about Nature and people. As every one enters, they leave their shoes on the outside like the people of the far east when they enter their place of worship. Well, they forgot about the hard times and last Wednesday when the meeting adjourned and the cult came out for their shoes, there were no shoes. There was weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth, impressions and a short discourse by the leader of the clan—but still the shoes did not return. It was finally decided that they should not any longer call for them, but return to their homes without them. Nosey watched them as they departed barefooted, Nosey knows and you know and the clan knows that next Wednesday night they will change a part of their custom and take their shoes inside or come barefooted.
YOU SHOULD have seen a man trying to beat Gourdin's record the other night. He did not have the great jumper's training because he fell short about three feet when he tried to make the jump from one apartment building to another last Thursday night out near the "Wayward Apartments." Nosey did not find out what he attempted the jump but knew that it was not on a bet because the leap was too dangerous. When the title contender picked himself up from the ground he limped away as fast as he could so Nosey decided that it was not a bet but that something inspired the leap other than a bet.
26 PICKPOCKETS IN JAIL
Sergeants, Middleton, "Big Six" Smith, Scott and Stark hit the high mark in arrests when last Saturday they arrested twenty-six pickpockets on the southside. People who use the street cars and pedestrians will welcome this news with a sigh of relief feeling that for a short while at least they will not have to hold tightly to their pocketbooks while boarding the cars and while in crowds. These officers are to be commended for their efforts to clean up the southside of a pernicious set of criminals who have made life miserable.

I know you know that young society girl who works down town and who states that she doth not want to know any colored people? Oh, you must know her because she is at every colored dance and party and can be seen in the cabarres very often. Ask her just what she means anyway.
I know you know that gentleman who lives on Wabash Avenue who had so many diamonds not long ago? Well, he is wearing a horseshoe nail for a ring now. The "bones" turned against him recently.
I know you know that lady who gave the pajama party that got so wild that she was asked for her flat. Oh! You must look on her because she is able wayalking for her beautiful flat south. She will not have it after the first of next month unless she can prove to the court that she does not disturb the peace.
I know you know most of these waiters at Dreamland and at Entertainers who lean all over your table and almost it on your hand as they look for a place to rest their weary bones? Oh, you must know those guys. Well, tell them to "stand up straight," and give the ladies at the tables at least a chance to see things without looking around them.
I know you know that young lady who lost most of her hair on 35th and State street the other day? Well, she has seen another beauty culturist now who guarantees to make it "stay put." Falling hair is rather embarrassing.

For instance, Mr. Wm. Bluner has taken unto himself the Miss Canon of the club, and the secretary, Miss Dorsey has become a Mrs Clark. If our club continues at this rate, who will be next to follow? Nosey.
EXTEND THANKS
We wish to extend our sincere thanks to relatives and friends for their sympathy and beautiful floral offerings in our recent bereavement caused by the death of our mother, Mrs. Eliza J. Reed, Claudius A. and Frederick O. Reid, 4340 Evans Ave.

NEW ENTERPRISE IS ADDED TO SOUTH SIDE BUSINESS FRATERNITY
August 1st, E. K. Settles will open
a $10,000 fur business at 3511 Grand
Blvd. When he throws his doors open
to the public he will have com-
pleted the first
lay in a success-
ful business
career.
PETER B.
A year ago he entered the fur business with very little capital and no business location. He sold furs from house to house, carrying amps him an ordinary suit case. By perseverance and close adherence
to fair and honest business methods he built up for himself a large patronage, a mute evidence of which can be seen when he opens his large stock of furs for public inspection.
To Open With Sale
Settles will open his business with an August Reduction Sale, at which furs can be bought at a 40 per cent reduction. All who wish to avoid the high prices prevailing in winter should buy from a store on exhibition all sorts of mink, seal, and squirrel furs, capes, coats, neckpieces, and stoles.
Well Known Here
Settles is well known in the city, having conducted a tailoring business at 65th St. and St. Lawrence Ave., and having been connected with the Woodlawn Fur Co., 1020 E. 55th St. He has been a resident of Chicago for ten years. He is an expert at repairing furniture. His business will be conducted in connection with the hat shop of Mrs. William Bottoms, at the same address.

Letters and telegraphs of condolence were read from United States Senator Medill McCormick, the Conway family, Pooria, Ill. and Mrs. Aaron Malone, St. Louis, Mo. and Dr. Daniel Hale Williams and wife.

Abbott, Albert George, Adolph Harris, Aldred Hampton, Dr. George C. Hall and Walter Anderson. The remains were laid to rest at Lincoln cemetery in the Moseley family lot. Those who survive her are Mrs. Bertha Moseley Lewis, daughter, Mrs. Jane Hammond, mother and John Hammond, brother.

The Grand
The Broadway Rounders, a big musical comedy, opened at this house last Saturday night, the weather being extremely hot, did not keep the
theatre geers away as Montgomery and McClain were greeted by a large audience. The show measures up in quality to anything seen here in the past and the music book and the costuming is up to the standard. The wonderful singing chorus is supported by such able vocalists as Leon Diggs, Ras-
Dave Peyton
tus Brown, Margaret Scott and Alice Georgas. Really the music alone is well worth the admission price. The comedy is good and affords much laughter, although in spots it becomes monotonous, for instance the two money business scenes could be eliminated entirely as they are old and do not stand up to modern humor. Aside from these criticisms, there is nothing else to say, as Mr. Montgomery has done wonderful work in the production of the Broadway Rounders. Dainty Florence McClain, always good to look at, broke up the show in her own style of singing Irvin Berlin's "All by Myself" and Leon Diggs pleased in his solo solo. Madam Scott and Alice Georgas registered a hit averaging only one歌. The music by Marie Lucas who is also the musical director, is melodious and soothing and some of the hits of the show are "Feeling Mighty Gay" "Sadie from Hackensack," "All By Myself," "Mable" and the "Jack Johnson Blues." This engagement is a limited one so I desire you to get in early as seats are at a premium.
"BEHIND MASKS"

The many friends of Messrs. Swift and Copeland, president and secretary of Musicians Protective Union Local 208, will be glad to learn that they have been exonerated of the charges against them. They proved to the members that they have been faithful in the performance of their duties and have given their time selfishly to the interests of the organization. We, the Local, desire the public to know that the true spirit of fraternal fellowship prevails throughout the Local 208 and we are ever ready to stand by one another in all that will help us to success.

GREAT CUBANS TO PLAY HERE THIS SUNDAY
"Hooks" Jiminez, Captain, Rios, LeBlanc, Baro and Abreu are a few of the favorites of Chicago fandom that come here Sunday with the famous Cuban baseball team, Manila, the wonderful Filipino pitcher, is another pastimer that is bound to annex an undue amount of favor from the fans. The Cuban team has been going at a fifty per cent gait against all comers, and are right now fit to wage a fierce battle against the best. The games between the Foster team and Cubans always elicit a great amount of interest, the Islanders undergoing special prepping when headed towards the Windy City. All teams along the circuit want to down the Foster club, and most especially, the boys from Havana, Cuba. More real interest centers in the Cuban-Foster series right now than any series that have been played this season. The American Giants are leading the league right now being but a scant portion of thousandth as points go ahead of the Kansas City Monarchs. The Cubans not only desire to trounce the Fosterites, but they would like mighty well to have the credit of kicking them out to first place. It was this same Cuban team that put two straight wins over the Detroit Stars, making certain the latters' dislodgment from first place. The American Giants cannot get off the job with the Cubans, that is if they desire to retain their present honors; the Island gang come prepared for dire deeds, and as they held Foster's crew to even games the last time, each winning two, that should be enough to warrant the belief that the Cuban series is going to be the crucial test of the American Giants' real ability.
UNION GIANTS ARE BLANKED. 5 TO 0
WEST PULLMAN, Ill., July 31.—The Chicago Union Giants proved easy picking for the Whitman-Barnes club here last Sunday, the Union batters failing to solve the delivery of Maager, while the veteran - Walter Ball was touched up rather freely. The Unions put up a plucky fight, playing a good game on the defense; the two bad innings in which the Barnes team scored five runs, could not be wiped out by the Unions. The score:

REVIVAL IN NINTH WINS FOR STARS
Warfield Lets Go Hit That Beats Cleveland, 4-3
DETROIT, Mich., July 31—Detroit's Stars got their bats to working in the ninth inning of Sunday's game at Mack park and downed Cleveland, 4 to 3.
Branham and Hottand, rival hurlers, kept the few hits each allowed well strung out.
Pete Hill revived hopes in the ninth when an error admitted him to first with two out. Gatewood, pitching for Holland, doubled to left, Daniels, running for Hill, coming over with the tying run. Warfield drove Gatewood home with a single to center.
Sensational fielding marked the fray. Wesley, first baseman, rejoined the Detroiters after a month's layoff due to injuries and helped himself to a double and a triple.

BUCKEYES, 11-7
CHICAGO, Ill., July 30—Pitcher Wilson of the Columbus team got off to a bad start in his first game here the Chicago team rapping his offering rather freely. The six runs scored by the Chicagoans in the first two frames proved a handicap that was never overcome by the Ohioans, Jack Marshall held the Bucks safe all the way. Lane finished the game for the Bucks, and while his mates hit with a vengeance behind him, they could not stop the Foster crew. The score:

TWO VICTORIES FOR BUCKEYES
GARY, Ind., July 29.—The Columbus Buckeyes downed the American Giants in the first game of the series played here Friday. Gitenstander held the league leaders at his mercy all through the contest, the Chicago team being able to touch his hurling for but six singles. Only for an infield mixup, the Buckeyes would have tabbed a shut-out. As it was, Columbus won by the score of 5 to 1. The Buckeyes played the Gary Steel Works team in the second game of the afternoon, blanking the Steel Works 10-0.

Sporting Editor, Chicago Whip:
Dear Sir—In answer to your question which appeared in last week's issue in regard to readmitting Jack Johnson to sporting circles, I wish to give you and the public my whole-hearted opinion why he should be readmitted to the sporting circles. You are the sporting editor for the Whip and I am sure your aim is to do all in your power to better your present condition and be of material assistance to the advancement of the race of which you are a member.
Should you happen to make one great mistake which would prove to be at the time the mistake of your life, though circumstances had forced you to make this supposed mistake in a final attempt to avoid being considered more disgraceful by your own race than you really were and you had blocked the onrushing channel of conviction by so doing, according to federal justice, but on account of your color and rumored bad conduct of the past, you were defeated, fined and sentenced to a penal institution for a year and a day simply to gratify the simple public. I am certain you or any other one of the human race would not think the cards of justice in this great game of life had been dealt to you from the top of the deck of humanity. Therefore, I wish to impress on your mind that knowing he had the prosecution handicapped when he married Miss Lucille Cameron, who was at that time star witness for the government, but which after her marriage to Jack made it unconstitutional for her to testify against him, which if she had would perhaps made an open and shut case and an early victory for the federal authorities.
In view of the fact that there is not a man dead or living who reached the top of any division of the pugilistic

world that was not persecuted, scandalized and ridiculed by the public at sometime or another, so under the circumstances Jack is more to be pitted than censored. I might trace records back as far as Jim Macks' time and prove that the same unrest and difference of public opinion and snap judgment was in existence then as there is at this present day. So why knock at Jack Johnson's door of success with the old hammer of condemnation; he is just as human as those who have gone before him and he has paid dear for his so-called folly with his reputation, liberty, citizenship and perhaps his health. And I say when any man in the position he was at the time and executes the amount of strategy and good judgment that he did is entitled to a consideration and credit and there should be a move made to bring about a universal reconciliation between Jack and the majority of the race who joined hands with the tongue lashing narrow-minded whites who were so hasty in condemning him for reasons with a foundation as strong as the top crust of an imported cream puff. Jack Johnson is a good man and has proved to the world that he is. You know you can't keep a good man down and to make a friend you must first be one. I am a race man strictly and a friend to each and every member of my race and as for Jack Johnson, I say, long live the uncrowned heavyweight king of the world, and I drink to his health, happiness and success in being readmitted to the sporting circles of the entire world. And I sincerely hope I am justified in my opinion regarding the king of heavies.
Yours respectfully,
A. L. WATSON.
MONARCHS TROUNCE CUBAN STARS 12 TO 2
MONARCHS TROUNCE CUBAN STARS 12 TO 2
KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 30.—The Cuban Stars were unable to halt the streak of the Monarchs in the first game of the series at Association park. Hitting at will, the locals won, 12 to 2, home runs by Mendez and McNair, augmenting the total considerably. The play of Rios at short was sensational. This midget Cuban covers a wide area, adding many grounds to his own position from second and third base territory. Several of his stops were of the miraculous order, while his throws were always accurate. A gloved hand stab of a low liner which seemed to hear a certain base hit label when it left the bat was the bright feature. Ginerra in right field being the author.
The Monarchs seurrred off to a big lead by scoring five runs in the first inning, three being the result of Mendez's circuit clout. "Rube" Currie allowed the Stars only five hits and kept them well separated, so the best the visitors could do was score a counter in the third and another in the fifth.

DETROIT, Mich., July 30—Detroit Stars celebrated their home coming by taking the Cleveland Giants into camp Saturday, 7 to 3.
Force pitched masterly ball allowing but four hits, his own error and two by his battery made accounting for all the visitors' runs.
The home club took a commanding lead. The first two men up singled, followed by a comedy of errors, and when the dust cleared three runs were up.
The remainder of the runs were scored one at a time by clean hitting Hamilton, the opposing pitcher, carried off the batting honors with two doubles. Warfield played a spectacular game at second.

MONARCHS WIN SECOND
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 1—
Ten thousand fans saw the Monarchs
defeat the Cincinnati Cuban Stars to
day in the second straight game of
the series. Both teams played good ball
and the game was very exciting. The
Cubans threatened to tie up the score
in their half of the ninth inning when
they scored two runs. It was a per-
fect day and the local fans are wild
over the winning streak of the Mon-
archs who are just a fraction of a point of tying the American Giants for first place.

NEGRO NAT'LS TO PLAY MID-WEST LEAGUERS
Chicago fans will be given their long desired opportunity of witnessing a clash between the Mid-west league clubs and the best teams of the Negro National league. Teh Cuban Stars will open the Inter-league clash when they lock horns with Billy Neissen's club at Pyttot's field Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Foster's American Giants will engage the Pyttot in a twilight game Monday evening at 6 p. m. The Cubans will play the Logan Squares at Squares park Monday night. The American Giants will hook up with the Logan Squares in a game to be played Tuesday night. Perhaps more interest will center in the clash between the Americans and Pyttot for Monday night, as the goes between these two monsters of the diamond are always worth the while of the fans. Neissen has collected a bunch of major and minor league talent for the fray, and with the well known prestige of the Foster team, the fans undoubtedly are in for some real pastimating at all games.
CUBANS DOWNED. 4-3
ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 26.—The St. Louis Giants dropped the third game of the series to the Cuban Stars by a 4 to 3 score. The Cubans hit Starks hard and often, and good fielding by the locals held the score down. Holt starred in the field for the Giants when he leaped up and grabbed Abruce's line drive in the fifth.

Disease in Filthy Alleys.
Vermin, disease, contagion and disaster is born and the accumulated dirt, filth and refuse which is allowed in the alleys on Chicago's South Side. A casual stroll under the elevated tracks will reveal bands of moldering, festering garbage and millions of matter together in dangerous festivities. The alleys beaten,ana, Prairie, Wabash and Calumet Avenues all the 29th to 39th Street are cluttered up with ashes and oil refuse. If the city authorities are concerned with the life city in general and the community in particular, imsteps will be taken to safeguard their interests. Should men who vote and pay taxes desire to rear strong and children, they must immediately write to their alder protest against the eminent dangers. There is no reason why the alley inspectors should have eyes at the dreadful conditions in the "black beit." On, contagion and disease know no color line, and for it of progress during this great hour of the Pageant, busy streets and alleys be cleaned.
Vermin, disease, contagion and disaster is born and bred in the accumulated dirt, filth and refuse which is allowed to remain in the alleys on Chicago's South Side.
A casual stroll under the elevated tracks will reveal great mounds of moldering, festering garbage and millions of flies gathered together in dangerous festivities. The alleys behind Indiana, Prairie, Wabash and Calumet Avenues all the way from 29th to 39th Street are cluttered up with ashes and decaying refuse. If the city authorities are concerned with the health of the city in general and the community in particular, immediate steps will be taken to safeguard their interests. Should the citizens who vote and pay taxes desire to rear strong and healthy children, they must immediately write to their aldermen and protest against the eminent dangers.
There is no reason why the alley inspectors should wink their eyes at the dreadful conditions in the "black beit." Infection, contagion and disease know no color line, and for the spirit of progress during this great hour of the Pageant, let the filth streets and alleys be cleaned.
Speed Up Evolution.
Evolution is wonderful. It changes the smallest creeping lowest straggling weed and tampers with the highest or animal creation. From fauna and fern, rocks and animals, forest kings then man and evolution still silently performs its eternal task. It changes everything, all forms of created matter. It is not changing the sleeping, sluggish black man fast e
Evolution is wonderful. It changes the smallest creeping insect, the lowest straggling weed and tampers with the highest order of plant and animal creation. From fauna and fern, rocks and rills, to mammals, forest kings then man and evolution still silently but slowly performs its eternal task. It changes everything, all forms and kinds of created matter.
It is not changing the sleeping, sluggish black man fast enough, however, and evolution must be aided, abetted and stimulated. The black man must change and change faster.
It appears to us that he reluctantly responds to the touch of evolution. He does not react with the electric flash of other people. He seems to be in a heavy torpor, a drowsy stupor, only half awake. Whether it is the soothing, sleepy chloroform of his ancestral tropics or the heavy, crushing pressure of the dominant white man, we do not know. We do know that the black man needs some unearthly clap of thunder or some piercing, soul stirring cry from a new born leader to wake him up, change him and lend a little assistance to the unseen hand of evolution.
The black man is now without political organization in America. It seems utterly impossible to arouse in him the knowledge of his voting power. In Mississippi, for instance, the blacks outnumber the whites, almost twenty per cent, notwithstanding this condition the black people do not exert their power and suffrage is as confusing to them as the tongues of Babylon. President Harding now flatly states that he will appoint no black men to office in the South. Harding's attitude is the attitude of the Republican Party and yet the stupified black people follow in its wake like stolen sheep following a thieving shepherd. If the great mass of dark folk would arouse themselves politically and split their ticket political evolution would rush more swiftly to the end of recognition and liberty.
More black people can now be found begging bread than during the reconstruction period following the abolition of slavery. Yet money is flaunted by their more fortunate brothers to the Gods of Song and Dance. For lack of support and patronage many business men of their own color are forced to close their doors while their Israelite competitor reaps a harvest. Hard times have not contributed nearly so much to the failure of our business enterprises as has our non-support and unfaithfulness. Wherever we migrate the "Sons of Israel" will immediately follow and prosper while we ourselves gasp and moan in the throes of 'depression.' Sacrificial support of our concerns is not as evident as in the dominant race. Evolution, economically must be spurred by a new found resolution to help each other.
Evolution will be aided and the black race will be awakened only by a tightening of racial ties. Persecution aided the March of Christianity and it will aid the black people by driving them closer together. The tar and feathers which the Ku Klux plasters upon us, the hacked and carved bits of black flesh which the lynchers keep for souvenirs, the slave drivers upon peonage farms and all of the crimes which are perpetrated against us will force us nearer to each other and will drive the frills and fancies from our minds. Still we seem very slow to shake the yoke of slavery, the rope of the lyncher and the tar of the Ku Klux. We cannot imagine the Irishman, the Indian or Jew shaping his actions as we shape ours. A great awakening to shake the very vitals of the race is needed. Evolution must be aided.
UNDER THE LASH OF THE
WHIP
Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting
Errors and Epils.
Peonage continues in Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and in fact in most of the Southern states. The commissary system and the crop lien plan held thousands of black people in virtual slavery. The southern Congressmen know of these evils and yet President Harding says that we must line up with the southern white people. "Cannon to right of us, cannon to the left of us, which way must we turn?" At last the Sovereign southern states have awakened to the fact that the Ku Klux Klan was not appropriate for the present day and a great hue and cry has been raised against it. We hope that while they are breaking up the Ku Klux that they will also take a shot at lynchings and all of the barbarous practices which infect the South.
Henry Lincoln Johnson is playing to the grand stand and is yelling out that he will not resign from the National Committee. He will fool some of the people, but he will be repudiated in the end. He will do well to resign for the good that he will do. It was he who influenced the southern constituents to line up behind President Harding and everybody knows how grievously we have suffered by following his senseless advice. These ancient asinine leaders always lead their followers in evil ways and Johnson is no exception.
Roscoe Simmons is screaming his lungs out in the South and claims that he is going to organize a new political party. He will seek to make himself "Grand Exalted Ruler" and by all means treasurer. This is one of the Uncle Tom leaders whom the people have found and it will not be long before he will chirp his own swan song.
The Society Stars of Chicago are entertaining the summer visitors from the South with "breakfast dances" at the Unity Club. These summer visitors will receive a wealth of inspiration to carry back to Dixie. They still dance while Rome burns.
Health Hints
By Dr. Troy Smith.
In order to keep well one of the many essentials is to eat clean food. The health laws of the city of Chicago protect every individual on this point, and it is up to everyone to see that the laws are obeyed. If your grocer, meat man, milk man or anyone who handles food violates any of the food laws, it is your duty to write or phone the Department of Health, City Hall and report such violation.
point, and it is up to everyone to see that the laws are obeyed. If your grocer read man milk man or anyone who handles food violates any of the food laws, it is your duty to write or phone the Department of Health, City Hall and report such violation. The law is very plain about the care and protection of foods. For example in regards to solid foods, the law says: Food that is for sale in stores, on stands, or from push carts, shall be protected from flies, dirt, dust and handling. This means sliced watermelons, fruits eaten with skins on berries, meats of all kinds, cakes, candies, breads and like foods.
Stores shall be kept clean and all receptacles for holding foods shall be clean also. See that your dealer keeps his store clean. If he does not, write the Bureau of Food Inspection, Department of Health.
Milk—the law says:
Only clean and pure milk shall be sold. Milk that has been made poor by adding water or any preservative shall not be sold. Milk must be kept in a cool place, at a temperature of 55 degrees or less. Only bottled milk may be sold by grocers or milk dealers. Wash all your milk bottles when they are empty. Unwashed bottles often help to spread filthy diseases. Canned foods and cold storage foods—the law says:
All canned goods must be labeled so as to tell truly what is in the can. Read the labels. When canned goods are found to be tainted or stale, ask the dealer to replace them. If he won't, write the Bureau of Food Inspection, Department of Health. Don't take chances on getting sick by eating dirty or adulterated foods
NEW LAW A BAR TO DISGUISES IN TEXAS
AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 6—In an effort to stem the steadily increasing power of masked mobs in Texas, Representative Patman, of Carr county has prepared a petition to present to the governor requesting him to submit a bill to the special session of legislature making it a felony to appear in disguise in Texas. The petition was circulated among the members of the house, many of whom signed it.
THE CHICAGO WHIP
Legal Hints To Women
By Violette N. Anderson
Attorney-at-Law
Dear Mrs. Anderson:
I have been married for ten years to
a man who left me and went to live in
St. Louis. While
a man who left me St. Louis. While there he was living with another woman. He came back to me three months ago and promised to do the right thing by me and asked me to forgive him which I have done. We lived together three weeks when I found the address of this same woman who has come to Chicago and I found out
1950
that he is still going to see her. Can I got a divorce from him even after I have lived with him since he came baek?
Yes, if you left him after you found out that he had broken his promise to you.
Dear Madame:
A man made a contract with me to buy a house and told me that I could move into it. He fixed up the papers and after I paid the $750 and signed up the people in the house refused to move out as they had a lease good for another year. What can I do?
From the facts you have stated, nothing. You should have found out what leases existed at the time you paid the money.
The man in the office where I am working tells me all the time that if I will be a good fellow and do as he says I will not want for anything and he will buy me all the pretty clothes I want. I need the work very badly for my mother is an invalid and dependent on me. I have been evading him for four months but lately he has become very persistent and I am afraid that I am going to lose the position which pays well. What would you advise me to do? He says I am invaluable to him in the office.
Apparently you are a level headed girl; is it not possible to have a sensible talk with him—telling him that you want the work—that you feel that your services are of worth to him and you desire to give him the service he is paying you for—that anything else is out of the question? If he is a real man, and a talk of this kind will reveal it, you will hold your job—and have gained a friend who will always respect you. Try it. If you fail, quit. Dear Madame:
I gave some tenants a thirty days' notice and then accepted the rent from them; now I have been told that I cannot win out in the suit I started in court against them. Is this true?
Yes.
All legal questions cheerfully answered. Address The Whip.
