OF ANONYMOUS
LETTERSARRIVES
Society again Startled by Letters Exposing Vice and Warning Malefactors
Chicago's "Smart Set" had hardly recovered from the shock caused by the receipt of anonymous letters last week when it was thrown into paroxysm of consternation by the receipt of the second series early this week.
The second series of letters begins to unfold more clearly the motives of the writers. It appears that a mysterious "Committee of Five" has undertaken for itself the task of "cleaning house" in Chicago society. They have divided the sheep from the goats and are proceeding to warn the goats that they are no longer wanted in decent society.
It is not grotesque that heretofore practically no discrimination has been made as to the moral character of the members of the Windy City's "clite."
Instances are cited where the "scarlet woman", having grown rich off her ill-gotten gains, has turned virtuous, and with her blood money, has bought her way into the charmed circle. With her years of experience in life's gutter, she may be seen today exchanging secrets with the shy young debutante of sixteen years in the drawing room "out south."
The woman who never worked, or even pretended to work, has, in several instances, woven her tentacles around the tired but prosperous business man. The prestige of his money has found for her a place at the card table of the exclusive. The unfaithful wife, after constructing a firmy alb has resumed her place of leadership at the head of tender young girls. They secretly admire her for her cleverness.
On the other hand, men who have gotten rich at the cost of women's souls, are never questioned because their wives belong to "our set." The glint of their diamonds has blinded all to their vileness. The sweet odor of their gasoline outsells the rotten stench of their decayed souls. What matters it how or where their money came from—their wives' receptions are exquisite!
These things, say the committee of five, have thrown Chicago into disgrace and disrepute throughout the country. Throughout the East and South, a Chicagoan is immediately expected to assume the role of libertine; they say, "In the battle of moral values here has stamped every Chicago man or woman as an individual who "does everything he's big enough to do," according to the mysterious committee of five.
May Wreck Big Club
One of the immediate results of the drive of the Committee of Five, it is said, may be the wrecking of the Forty Club. It is claimed that numerous members of this popular club have records which cannot withstand the glare of pitiless publicity. It is even charged that the invitation list is compiled in a way that would shock Bohemia, and that the color of the moral fibre of the attendants at their social functions is as vivacious as the people's set. To the Committee of Five charges that many people above reproach have been snubbed by the "Forties" because they didn't belong to "our set."
Take Swing at Appomatox
The committee also takes a swing at the Appatomox Club, an organization of business men, who are said to have barred a certain recent applicant on "moral" grounds, although it is said that the club's gamblers in town are members of it.
To Spring Big Surprise
In this week's letter the Committee of Five serves notice on Society that it will not tolerate the return of a certain school teacher into the association of respectable people. This well known Chicago girl startled many by marrying recently a well known underworld character, also said to be a successful gambler and trafficker. Several of her friends who are warned that these receptions will result in the public repudiation of both the hosts and the guests. Among those receiving this week's letters are a well known social leader of long standing, employed in the loop, a certain well established doctor's wife, who has been mentioned in several scandals, a well known woman in the musical world, a "lady bartender," now turned choir member, and several others.
STREET CAR CUTS WOMAN'S HEAD FROM BODY
Horrible Death Overtakes Gir Riding In Motor Cycle Side Car
Death in its most horrible aspect came to Miss Levinia Irish, 24 years of age, Sunday afternoon, when she was hurled underneath the wheels of a 51st St. car, and her head cut completely off.
Miss Irish, who lived at 5050 Dearborn St. was riding in the sidecar of a motorcycle, driven by Thomas Steele, 1645 Jefferson St. Gary, Ind. Steele and Miss Irish were riding on Federal St. at the 51st St. intersection. Evidently Steele attempted to race across the trucks in front of the car.
The street car struck the motorcycle full in the side, catapulting the girl from the sidecar onto the tracks. Before the car could be stopped, its heavy iron wheels had passed over her neck. The head was completely severed from the body, and rolled to one side.
The body was taken to Williamson's morgue, where mineral services were to be held. Wednesday morning. Inquest was continued to Sept. 14 Steele is being held by the police pending the inquest.
Says Latest Bomb Thrown Was Jesse Binga's Own Fault
Says Latest Bomb Thrown Was Jesse Binga's Own Fault
The 70th bombing of Jesse Binga's home at 5922 South Park Blvd., is the fault of no other person than Jesse Binga him, at according to William P. McCall, 652, Bowen Ave., former city policeman, employed by the banker to watch his home.
In an exclusive interview with this paper McCall stated that he warned Binga repeatedly that his home was in danger of being bombed, and that under the circumstances which he was compelled to watch it, a bombing could not be prevented.
McCall says that he had been employed to watch the Binga home for several months, when Binga concluded that he was not doing enough work for the money he he was receiving. Binga then ordered him to wash his automobiles and wet his lawn in addition to watching the house.
He also says that Binga failed or neglected to have him sworn in as a special deputy or special policeman, and that he could have been arrested at any time for carrying weapons. This in spite of the fact that McCall repeatedly asked Binga to clothe him with proper authority.
According to McCall's story he should have been given another man to watch his rear of the house while he watched the front. In spite of this he was required to do all the watching in addition to performing the work of a house-boy.
The bombers took advantage of this situation, according to McCall, and on the night of the bombing, lured him to the rear of the premises, while their confederates hurled the bomb from the front.
In spite of this, McCall says that Benton place is advantage for the brompton in his shoulder.
JERSEY POLICE STOP
JACK JOHNSON LECTURE
NEWARK, N. J., Sept. 10.-Police here broke up a meeting Monday night at which Jack Johnson was scheduled to speak. Two thousand people were gathered to hear the ex-champion. Director of Public Safety Brennan was responsible for the order on which he spoke. No reason was given for his action.
CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10th, 1921
Thompson Silent As Other Mayors Score Ku Klux
While the Mayors of eleven great American cities block the march of the Klu Klux Klan and prevent its activities in their cities, William Hale Thompson, the Mayor of Chigago, has remained silent and no one has heard him part his lips while this insidious organization spread its propaganda and scattered its roots over the Commonwealth which claims Abraham Lincoln and other great champions of freedom and Americanism. The silence of Mayor Thompson comes as a surprise in as much as silence is generally construed to be consent and the Mayor has been heralded as a particular friend of the colored people whose vote threw him into office. The Irish people and Jews are also in a quandary as to Mayor Thompson's attitude and seem much chagrinned at his tolerance of the "invisible empire" which bars Negroes, Irish people and Jews.
Mayors of New York, Cleveland and Louisville Bar Klan
Mayor Hylan of New York states that the purpose of this organization is un-American and will not be tolerated in the metropolitan city while he holds the reins of the city's government. Mayor Fitzgerald of Cleveland states in part that the Ku Klux Klan is a hot bed for stirring up race and religious prejudice. He further proclaims that "I will use all of my power to keep this organization from getting a foothold here. This is a city of a dozen different nationalities, many creeds and colors and it is an outrage to our intelligence, and I want the CITY COUNCIL, to give a vote in favor of a resolution against this organization." Mayor John D. McBride of Warren, Ohio, commits himself as follows: "I will not tolerate any such organization in Warren. We have a police department and it is able to handle all situations which may arise. We have no need for the Klan here." Mayor George Wessinger Stuart, who was with the praeworthy utterance: "I believe this organization to be a menace to society and I will use every lawful means to suppress its growth." This statement coming from the Mayor of a southern town puts to shame the silence of Mayor Thompson, whom the colored people have long honored and supported.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has made public a statement sent to the colored post of the American Legion, Mitchell Davis Post, by the Mayor of Trenton, N. J. This letter makes no compromise with the Klan and the Mayor states emphatically that he is opposed to any organization which promotes interracial distrust and empathy.
American Bar Association Opposes Ku Klux
The American Bar Association, thrus its President, Hampton Carson, of Philadelphia, flatly condemns the Ku Klux and states that there is no place in America for it. The Green Dragon of the Klan in North Carolina, Bruce Craven' has ordered a dissolution of the organization in his state and asserts in no uncertain terms that it is a "FAILURE AND FRAUD." The spirit of America is opposed to the Klan and public utterances are heard even in Galveston, Houston, in Atlanta, and even in Southern California. But alas, silence remains supreme in Chicago and Illinois.
Governor Small Also Silent
Governor Small, who is the Mayor's chosen head of the Commonwealth of Illinois, is also silent and nothing against the Ku Klux has been said and nothing in behalf of "FIVE CENT FARES" HAS BEEN DONE. It is not expected that the better thinking people will support these men at the next election. The only thing that has happened in Illinois which is encouraging is the action of Col. Clinnin, Federal District Attorney. Col. Clinnin is affiliated with a rival political organization to the Mayor and his party has not received the support of the colored vote in Chicago, but his knowledge of the activities of the Klan and his appreciation for justice regardless of color have led to the seizing of the Klan's charter and an investigation.

WHERE GAMBLING CAUSED NEAR RIOT
Photograph of the street carnival scene at 39th St., and Vincennes Avenue, where open gambling culminated in a near riot. It can be seen that most of the concessionaires, "smelling a rat", have fled in confusion.
GAMBLING AT CARNIVAL ENDS IN NEAR RIOT
Open and notorious gambling in a street carnival at 39th St. and Vincennes Ave., culminated in a near riot Monday night, in which Horace Samuels, 3731 Rhodes Ave., was shot in the leg.
Automobile Raffle Starts Trouble
In addition to the pinwheels and shell games which flourished, an automobile was being raffled off to the holder of the lucky number.
According to witnesses, as the raffle drew near a close, it was evident that the raffle was a "fake," and that the promoters of the scheme were preparing to win the car themselves. About this time a barker began circulating through the crowd declaring that the lucky number had not been bought, inducing more sales of tickets.
Seeing through the ruse, one ticket holder began complaining of the procedure and demanded his money back. The commotion spread and in a few minutes hundreds of angry "investors" were struggling around the car crying for their money.
Bullet Hits Samuels
Policemen then rushed to the scene, attempting to club the crowd back. A shot was fired, wounding Horace Samuels. Policeman Stephen Lyons of the Staton Ave. station, denies that he fired the shot. He says some one may have fired at him and struck Samuels. Policeman McGrudder and Johnson then rushed to the aid of Lyons, who was being menaced by the angry crowwl. Riot calls then brought policemen, plain clothes men, and detectives from every direction, who finally succeeded in subduing the crowd. Samuels was given treatment at the County Hospital.
HENRY BROWN HANGED
BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 10—Henry A. Brown was hanged at the Baltimore city jail Thursday morning for the murder of Harriet Kavanaugh a naval academy nurse, at Annapolis Aug. 14 of last year. Robbery was the motive. The case caused wide interest because of a plea to President Harding for a pardon or commutation of sentence.
Asked To Be Buried Standing Up; His Request Granted
YORK, S. C., Sept. 10—The dying request of William Patton, a widely known citizen of the East View section, that his body be allowed to stand upright in the grave rather than rest in a recumbent position, accounted for a strange burial at Pineville church eight miles east of York, yesterday. His wish was observed, which necessitated the digging of an unusually deep grave and gave a weird atmosphere to his last obsequies. The old interment created a sensation and attracted a huge crowd to the burial. William Patton was educated at the state college, Orangeburg, and taught school for a number of years. He was about 40 years old, and his death was due to tuberculosis.

CORSICANA, Texas, Sept. 10.—The Ku Klux Klan is attempting to force striking cotton pickers back to work at lower wages here. Notices have been posted in the Blooming Grove section warning farm hands that they must pick cotton and that they must pick it at 50 cents a hundred pounds. The wage demanded has been 75 cents a hundred pounds. So far no pickers have returned to work.
SOUTH CAROLINA MOB FLOGS TWO GIRLS
GREENWOOD, S. C., Sept. 10—A mob of 150 howling men took two girls, Jessie and Julia Valentine, from the city jail here, and rushing them into the outskirts of the city, stripped and flogged them.
The two girls were in the city jail on charges of creating a disturbance on the streets when they had an altercation with two white women regarding the right to walk on the sidewalk. In the course of the trouble, a white man who interfered was beaten.

FREE MAN FOR BLOW WHICH CAUSED DEATH
John Ball, 50 years of age, 4000 Wabash Ave, died Friday at the Illinois General Hospital. He died of skull fracture, hemorrhage, and shock. Marvin H. Tucker, who struck the blow knocking Ball to the floor, fracturing his skull, was held not responsible for Ball's death by a coroner's jury at McGavock's Morgue Friday afternoon. Ball and Tucker, employed at the Ford Motor plant, 39th St. and Wabash Ave, engaged in an altercation Thursday. The altercation developed into a fist fight, and ended when Tucker registered a knockout blow, sending his older opponent to the floor. As Ball's head struck the floor, his skull was fractured by the impact, and he was hurried to the Illinois General Hospital, where he died the next day. Tucker was released following the inquest.
PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS URGES RACE EQUALITY
LONDON, Sept. 10—Absolute race equality—physical, political and social—as a foundation for advancement is the claim set forth in a manifesto to the world today by the Pan-African Congress, now in session here. Various peoples of African descent in the United States, the West Indies, Central and South America and Africa are represented.
An Indian, Saklatrala Ohio, prospective labor candidate for a parliament from Battersea, conveyed greetings to the delegates in the name of the Indian race.
American delegates to the Pan-African Conference in session here have repudiated Mareus Garvey's "Back to Africa" program.
Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, the leading spirit of the conference, said: "The colored American cannot withstand the African climate. We cannot oust the Europeans and do not desire to do so."

Olivet Baptist Church Made Headquarters. Dr. L. K. Williams Outstanding
Figure.
With ministers and delegates from every part of the United States through the city, and visitors, whose interests lie in the deliberations of this notable meeting of the year, the National Baptist convention opens with a more auspicious beginning than any in the history of one of the most powerful organizations of black people in the country.
The Committee of Arrangements in charge of making preparations for the convention, have spared no expense or labor in making this convention one long to be remembered in church circles as well as being epoch making in the life of black people throughout the country.
Dr. Williams Directs Arrangements
Dr. L. K. Williams, pastor of Olivet Baptist Church of this city, aided by a committee, which was selected from all of the Baptists Churches of the city who are in the convention, has labored as only Dr. L. K. Williams can labor to make all arrangements for the housing of delegates, attending ministers and visitors as well as for all of the sessions of this convention. Dr. Williams, who is perhaps the outstanding figure in Baptists Church circles, has worked with the same zeal and driving power for the success of this convention as he did in building up the largest church organization in the city.
Rev. Branham has been the untiring aid of Rev. Williams throughout all the preparations.
Olivet Church Selected for Sessions

members left a small coffin on the

"watch his step".
KU KLUX, THREATENED WITH DEATH, ASKS U. S. PROTECTION
Chase W. Love, white, 2733 Hampen Court, alleged corresponding secretary of the First Grand Goblin of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan here, has asked the United States District Attorney to protect him against numerous threats made against his life.
Love strenuously denies that he is a member of the Klan, claiming that he has been mistaken for another man of the same name. According to Love, his phone has been burnt up with threats during the last few weeks, "that if you're the head of the Ku Klux you're a marked man." He says his wife has also been terrorized by a strange man who has continually shadowed their home. He says he has been several times verbally accosted and told that he was marked for death.
Taking advantage of the terror-striken condition of Love's wife, Daniel F. Breen, white, 2152 West Superior street, attempted to extort $6,000 from her. He was arrested in a loop store.

Many Problems Will Be Handled
Many problems which have confronted the church and the race for some time will receive the attention of the convention. Senators McCormick and McKinley will speak at the opening session on the Anti-Lynching Bill which is designed to stop America's greatest horror. The convention in its pre-convention statement has placed itself on record as protesting against the outstanding outrages that have been and are being committed against black people in America. All phases of the work of the Baptist connection will be handled as reports from Sunday school, Publishing House, Milk Bar, Y. P. Board, Church Extension Board, Education Board, Department of Evangelism, and other branches of the work of the connection will be one that will cause many to marvel at the scope and character of the church representing the major portion of all black people in the United States.
Olivet Is Inspiration
The institutional idea that has been carried out at Olivet is a source of inspiration to the 3000 visitors who marvel at the diversified work that is being done at Olivet. Kindergarten, Day Nursery, Library, Employment Bureau and other features have made this church a power for real good and Dr. L. K. Williams stands out as one of the most notable figures at the convention.
Election of President
The election of the next head of the National Convention will be one of the most interesting events of the convention, as much depends upon the head of the organization. Dr. L. K. Williams has been endorsed by many for this position and would, without question, make the organization a worthy executive. The results of this election will be looked for by all persons who have any interest in the future of black people throughout the country. The Chicago Whip adds its welcome to those who have already made the visitors feel at home and watches with interest the results of this notable gathering.

KERLIN'S DISCHARGE WAS DIRECT BELOW AT FREE SPEECH
"Now My Skin Is Like Velvet"
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 10.—As the details of Col. Robert Kerlin's expulsion from Virginia Military Institute come to light, it is seen that the action of the Virginia School was a direct blow at free speech. This is made clear in the following exposition of facts by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People:
The Charge
The Board of Visitors of Virginia Military Institute on August 20, 1921 passed a resolution demanding the resignation of Col. Robert T. Kerlin professor of English, and on his declining to give it, passed another resolution declaring his chair vacant. The resolution stated as the ground for the expulsion that Col. Kerlin had "rendered his further connection with Virginia Military Institute undesirable" by reason of "his interposition in the Elaine Insurrection cases as exemplified by his letter to the Governor of Arkansas reflecting upon the administration of justice in that state, and those of the Army's tenure duty of enforcing the laws within which connection the Board has considered his general activities in inter-racial matters."
The Offense
Professor Kerlin's open letter to Thomas C. McCrae, Governor of Arkansas, dated May 25, 1921, and published in full in the Nation of June 15, 1921, begins as follows: "Not in the history of our Republic has a more tremendous responsibility before God and the civilized world developed upon the shoulders of the chief executive of any state than has devolved upon yours in re the Negroes of Phillips County condemned for murder to seize in the electric chamber and so sentenced by the state to death, is a deed to be contemplated with extreme horror. In the execution of those men a race is suffering crucifixion. I entreat you to take the matter into your private chamber and give it an hour's earnest consideration, as before the Eternal Judge." The letter then proceeds to recite the following facts: That the con-

denned Negroes were accused of conspiring to end the "iniquities of the peonage system" prevalent in Arkansas, iniquities known to the world and indisputable.
2. That "when the individual tenant grown restive under such oppression, dared ask his landlord for a settlement or raise any question about his landlord's dealings with him," he was "beaten, driven out, or terrorized into silence."
3. That evidence given before the Supreme Court of Arkansas "abundantly and conclusively disproves" that the Negroes had begun the riots, and that they had armed themselves only after having been "threatened and molested," and that they had used their arms only in self defense.
4. That in the days of the "riot" the Negroes of Phillips County were "indiscriminately hunted, harried, and shot down like beasts of the jungle."
5. That the trial of these Negroes was a "travesty" during which "ninety-two men, without legal counsel, without witnesses, without knowledge of court procedure and their rights, some of whom were whipped, tortured in electric chairs, and terrorized into pleading guilty to murder in the second degree, were sentenced to prison terms ranging from one year to life," and that "twelve men, likewise tortured, were sentenced to death."
In concluding his appeal in behael of these Negroes, Col. Kerlin stated he would welcome correction of any misstatement or misrepresentation in his letter, as vindicating so far the imperial honor of a state.
The Procedure of the Board of Visitors
When Col. Kerlin asked permission to place this letter in its proper setting by reciting his activities in interracial matters, the Board declined to hear him on this subject which was called "the matter relevant to this issue before the Board in the resolution expelling Col. Kerlin, noted above, the parenthetical phrase occurs: "in which connection the Board has considered his general activities in interracial matters."

(Continued From Page 1.)
The members of the city council have given the arrival of the Klan no consideration or concern. Indeed, the two colored members have not registered complaints as of the present date. One of the members has been in swimming and the other in a great parade while the Ku Klux Klan initiated 2,300 new members and sent threatening letters to outspoken editors. The two colored aldermen are also cohorts of Silent Bill Thompson. What will the colored people do at the polls at the next election? The Thompson party seems to have forgotten all about the future and have shown great interest in golf. In the meantime the Klan organizes and bombs are hurled at colored voters. What will they do at the next election?
GARVEY TELLS U. N. I. A. IN LETTER TO STICK TOGETHER.
To the Officers and Members of the Chicago Division of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Greetings:
This is to inform you that I have been informed of the chaotic state in which your Division now exists. It grieves me much that I had so much hope of. Nevertheless misunderstandings will come in the best regulated Institutions, and for that reason, I will mistake that have been made, and I am willing to about an adjustment for the satisfaction of all concerned. In the execution of this action, the President, in the absence of the President, who has assumed the Convention, is an illegal one. It was not done constitutionally, and therefore, it is. So as not to aggravate the situation now existing, I have decided to come to Chicago for three or four days to speak to you. I will continue to attend your meetings, as well as to have everything adjusted. You depend upon it, that on my arrival, I will do everything to bring about a satisfactory resolution. I will continue to attend your meetings, under the guidance of your former President, Mr. Wallace, until I arrive in Chicago, at which time, I promise to do everything and have your majority will carried out.
The Delezates whom you have sent to the Convention will report to you the success of your efforts and will sure will interest you. Every step has taken in this Convention to protect the interests of the members of Local Divisions. Pressable advice will be given and follow the advice I give in this communication, that you call off the election you hold there to誓ence to your President, and that you allow me to arrive there to have all matters adjusted. I have written this letter in the presence of Mrs. Corker, Mr. Raines, Mrs. Hight, Mrs. Corker, Mr. Face, Mr. Harden, and Mrs. Washington.
I will be in your City on the 13. 14. 15.
and of September.
With all the wishes, I have the
harm.
With very best wishes, I have the hono-
to be.
Your humble servant.

manager until the war, when his activities as salesman were with the Government. He then became 'Field Agent' for the War Savings department, member of the Treasury, and the former organizer in war campaigns in the South Atlantic. Later he represented the War and Navy training camp activities for the War Camp Community Service. Mr. Atwell earnest, energetic and his friends say makes a convincing public speaker. Mr. Atwell is one of few colored men to address the professors and seniors of the University of South Carolina. He also opened the discussions of the Inter-racial discussion last semester at the University of Ohio. Some few of us remember his splendid presentation and protest against the Birth of a Nation when he secured the co-operation of the Council of Defence of South Carolina, and the city council of the capital passed an ordinance against it.

TOMMY
SAYS RENT HOGS GOUGE SOUTH SIDE DEEPEST
Miss Amelia Sears, head of the housing division of the United Charities, asserts that South Side residents, especially through the Rhodes Ave. district, are feeling the gouges of the rent hog more keenly than in any other part of the city.
She says rents have gone up more than 100 per cent there in the last two years. She says that even the poorer foreign elements on the west side far more better because the landlords live often in the same building as the tenants, while on the South Side the landlords live in some remote part of the city.
DUNBAR BOY INVENTS TIRE
WASHINGTON, D. C. Sept. 10
Norman Jackson, 202 E street, southwest, has recently obtained a patent for a pneumatic automobile tire which can be punctured from six to ten times before it is necessary to change or repair the tire. In addition to the tire which Mr. Jackson has invented, he is working on other things that will prove equally as beneficial and profitable as his tire invention.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 10.—Contention that the Japanese are a white race, and therefore entitled to American citizenship, are down for argument at the forthcoming session of the United States Supreme Court. The ease is No. 4 on the docket and may be heard on the first day Chief Justice Taft takes his seat, October 3.
Apart from the extraordinary character of the litigation, which officially is entitled "Takao Ozawa versus the United States," it may be occupying the attention of the "Supreme Court at the very moment President Harding's disarmament Far Eastern conference is in session. The claim of a Japanese to be recognized as a Caucasian thus may synchronize with the revival before the Washington conference of Japan's tenacious demand for "race equality." The Japanese petitioner, who is seeking to enforce his right to become a naturalized American, will be presented before the Supreme Court by George W. Wickersham, Attorney General of the United States in the Taft Administration, who will be one of the first counsels to appear before his former chief.

Argument Made by Japanese
Arguments on behalf of the claimant will range around the "race origin" of the Japanese. It will be pleaded that "the root stocks and the dominant strain of the Japanese" are of the white race. Section 2169 of the revised statutes of the United States, governing naturalization or aliens and prohibiting the granting of citizenship to members of the Mongolian race, is the one under fire. Counsel for Takao Ozawa will urge that "the Japanese are a 'free' people and that while Mongolian and Malay types are found among the Japanese, the Caucasian, or white type, is as prevalent."
Case Up Three Times
The case has been before the United States Supreme Court since 1917 and has been "passed" on three successive occasions, having come on a certificate from the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (California).

UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO STUDENTS LEAVE FOR THEIR HOMES
The summer courses of the University of Chicago closed on Friday last, thereby bringing to an end the visits of about 300 of our teachers of the public schools from nearly every state in the Union.
Among the many were the Misses Mamie Worsham, formerly of Philadelphia, Pa., now teaching in Petersburg, Va., and Aquilla Mathews, on Petersburg, Va. These prominent and charming young ladies, after successfully completing their summer courses, left for Petersburg, via Detroit and Montreal, Can. Their stay in Chicago was very beneficial and pleasant. Prof. Frank Coleman, formerly First Lieut. 208th Inf., teacher in the Armstrong Technical High School, Washington, D. C., who for the past three summers has been studying at the University of Chicago for his degree of Doctor of Philosophy, left for Washington, Pa., on Friday with his former classmate and comrade in arms, Rev. Edgar Love, who has now a charge in Washington, Pa., and formerly chaplain of the 368th Inf. Mr. Coleman expects to reach Washington, D. C., about the first of next week.
Miss Georgia Anna Simpson, Ph.D., a teacher of German in the Dunbar High School, left last week for Washington, D. C., where she is to resume her duties, after a very pleasant summer in Chicago. Miss Simpson has for the past 20 years been on the faculty of the high school and received her degree Ph.D., German, from the University of Chicago last year. Visiting with Miss Simpson were Dr Sarah Brown, a teacher in the high school, Washington, and Mrs. Franklin Childs, a probation officer in the Capital City.
Prof. E. P. Davis, dean of the department of German, Howard University, left for his home, Washington D. C., after a very pleasant summer in Chicago.
Miss Lola Etta Pemberton of Marshall, Texas, sister of Mr. and Mrs. N. Frederick Pemberton, 3600 Forest Ave, left for her home in Marshall, Texas, on Thursday last, after spending a very successful and enjoyable summer in the city and at the University.

Mrs. A. M. Scott, a well known teacher of Vicksburg, Miss., is now in the city visiting Mrs. Roxie Woods, 4109 Wabash Ave, and has been taking special courses at the U. of C. She will leave for her home Saturday, September 10th. She has enjoyed a delightful stay with her many friends who have entertained her royally and regret exceedingly that her time for departure is so close at hand. She was formerly known as Miss Anna Mae English.

ORGANIZE NEW
PARTY WITH
FULL TICKET
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 10—The City of Louisville is going to have a new political party, the Lincoln Independent Party, with the features of Abraham Lincoln as its emblem and Negro representation its prime object. A full city and county ticket, with the exception of the judiciary, will be put into the field; it was brought out after a meeting of the Campaign Committee at the Pythian Building, Tenth and Chestnut Streets, J. B. Cooper, undertaker, is tipped for the nomination for Mayor. The party is going to have its nominating convention September 24, at a place to be selected later. There now are according to Wilson Lovett, one of the main organizers, approximately forty or fifty men at work organizing and preparing to get out as many votes as possible.
Hope to Swing 10.000 Votes
"We expect to swing a minimum of 10,000 votes," Lovett said last night, "and we feel that we will elect our candidates to eight or ten of the minor offices. I am going to be a candidate for the Legislature from the Fifty-eighth District. You will recall that I was disqualified in the race for the Republican nomination."
The organizers of the Lincoln Independent Party feel, Lovett said, that they can elect members to the Legislature from the Fifty-first, Fifty-seventh and Fifty-eighth Districts, and that they can elect a State Senator from the Thirty-eighth District. They believe also, he added, that they can elect two or three magistrates and as many constables.
COP SHOOTS BANDIT WHO SNATCHED $380.00

Policeman Barksdale made his appearance just as the bandit was escaping in 33rd St. He called to him to halt and fired one shot in the air. Baker ignored the policeman's order and fled underneath the elevated structure. Another shot from the policeman's gun felled the bandit with a wound in the left leg.

The pre-convention event of the National Baptist Convention was the address given by Sutton E. Griggs of Memphis, Tenn., Tuesday night at the Eighth Regiment Armory.
Delegates and visitors gathered to hear this lecturer, who has made a reputation throughout the country and particularly the South for his oratory and presentation of what is calli "The Negro Problem."
Many of the visiting pastors were introduced to the gathering and opening event of the convention proved itself as expected to be a brilliant occasion.
DR. ROBERT L. WILLIAMS MAKES IMPROVEMENTS
Dr. Robert L. Williams, dentist, at 3515 Indiana Ave., has not been content with having what is considered the best equipped dental office of its size on the south side, but has determined to install every apparatus known to the profession that will facilitate his work and render better service to his rapidly increasing clientele.
A.
The apparatus that Dr. Williams has placed in his office is for the administering of gas. At a great expense Dr. Williams has secured what is the best apparatus made for administering gas to patients who desire painless extractions and in difficult cases.
The work of Dr. Williams is gradually winning for him the recognition that his experience as a dentist and his modern truly warrant. His ability and skill in difficult cases have also contributed to his success since he has been in his new and spacious location at 3515 Indiana Ave.
It is an encouraging sign when men in the professions make themselves known and felt by doing things as they should be done. Dr. Williams like others has demonstrated that the colored professional men can and do deliver the goods as they should be delivered.

HOWARD MEDICAL FACULTY FACES DISRUPTION
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 10- On account of dissatisfaction over the appointment of Dr. A. E. Jackson, of Mercy Hospital, Philadelphia, as professor of Hygiene and Health in Howard University, the medical faculty disruption.
The claim is made that Dr. Jackson is not as well equipped to handle that department as Dr. E. P. Hurst, the present incumbent.
Accordingly, the following resolution has been sent to the president of the school:
"Dear Sir; At the request of Dean Balloch I am transmitting herewith a resolution passed unanimously at a meeting of the faculty of the medical school, twenty-eight members present and voting:
"Whereas, The annual budget approved by the Board of Trustees of Howard University provided for the salary of Dr. A. B. Jackson as professor of Hygiene and Public Health of the Howard University Medical School; and
"Whereas, The appointment of Dr. Jackson was made without the nomination, consent or approval of the faculty of Howard University Medical School; and
"Whereas, Such action is distinctly contrary to precedent, and is contrary to the spirit and letter of the resolution passed by the Board of Trustees, June 3, 1920, which provided that nominations of faculty members should be made by the medical faculty subject to action by the Board of Trustees; therefore be it
"Resolved, That the said action is subversive to the best interests of the school and destructive of morale; and be it
"Further resolved, That the faculties of medicine, pharmacy and dentistry do protest most earnestly against such action.
"And be it provided further that a copy of this resolution be sent each member of the Board of Trustees and to the president of the University.
Respectfully,
COLLINS MARSHALL,
Vice-Dean, Howard University Medical School" Washington, D. C.

Guard Nunnery Against Attacks Of White Hoodlums
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Sept. 10—Under police protection, work of renovating a building at 4650 South Broadway for occupancy by St. Rita's Convent for Colored Nuns and Students, is being continued.
The property is known as the John Foster place. It was bought for the Archdiocese of St. Louis several weeks ago.
Protection was asked after a trespasser attempted to enter the building early Sunday morning and aroused an unarmed watchman. He called police, who surrounded the place, but the intruder escaped.
The watchman told police he believed the intruder was a resident of the neighborhood.
The announcement that the Foster place would be used as a convent for colored nuns and students has aroused much opposition among persons living in the neighborhood.
EDGEWATER BEACH WAITERS GIVE $50 TO MAURICE MAYS FUND
Waiters of the Edgewater Beach Hotel have contributed $50 toward the defense fund of Maurice Mays, now in prison in Knoxville, Tenn., in connection with the murder of Mrs. Bertie Lindsay, white.
The money, which was donated through John H. Webb, head waiter, and Engene R. Allen, secretary, has been sent to the imprisoned man by Mrs. Louise Rainey, 3554 Prairie Ave., Mays Chicago representative.
His case is scheduled to come before the Supreme Court of Tennessee on Sept. 16. Mays declares he is innocent of the murder of the white woman and citizens here of both races have made known their feelings in the case. Many state that Mays while deputy sheriff was forced to beat a white man who resisted arrest and when the Lindsay murder was heralded friends of this man placed the blame for the crime on Mays as a matter of revenge.
Since Mays has been in jail eight similar attacks have been committed, but the culprit has escaped.

A man in a suit bending forward to knock on a door.
N OSEY HAS discovered a new brand of Boulevard "pirates." They have come into existence since the passing of "the old pail" which used to be rushed whenever someone came in who had the price of some "suds." These ladies hail their friends as they pass and tell them that it is very warm and that a little ice cream would go good. The gentleman if he is a gentleman, towthwith bays some ice cream and passes on, as the ladies make excuses about having to walk to the beach. The passes and he is hailed and another "bucket" of cream falls into the laps of the "pirates." And so it goes on until the weak ones fall out and the strong ones are completely surfeited. This like the candy habit, is one of the baltic results of prohibition, it is said.
is. Noisy often wandered how these five society halls and midnight bears could keep their collars clean and look noatty all of the time, get never in days visited their own homes. It turns out that one of the gentlemen of the combination has a wardrobe in his centrally located office where is concealed a complete change for all of the Valant Five. There they rearrange their toilettes at will, very often leaving their ladies in one of more of their armour that one of these gentlemen also provides the same accommodations for the ladies at his office, his office girl acting as maid. It all shows that if you play a game you ought to have all of the accessories and the Pearsome Five really have made proper provisions for their activities.
SOME YOUNG men of the young or generation are certainly filled with zeal when they have been hit by Cupid's dart. Nosey has folowed the activities of the young medical student who has become initiated with one of the South's charming school teachers. He has for some his old hants and some say that he is no longer employed. Nosey still on the trail observed that the young man has gone one step farther than the ordinary lover and has bought a ticket to the same southern town to make sure that one else looks at the lady as she travels south. He may return in time to resume his studies at the Medical College but it is hard to determine just what will happen when he reaches the Southland and talks with his lady love under the southern skies. Love is a very funny thing, indeed.
evening to the whist party. One lady said that she was unable at that time to get all of her "data" together. Nosey hutted in the rear of the flat and found out that the party was not for a social game of whist but for the purpose of getting the family histories all prepared in due form so that when the Committee of Five began to send them letters they would be all prepared to show that they were the blue veined if there were any such thing as blue veined society. The Committee of Five has really started something if it has turned a regular whist party into a Family Tree Society.
YOU MUST NOT sleep too sound if you live in a house that has many roomers like most of the houses. If you are like Old Nosey you will stay awake all night to keep up with the many sounds that come from all parts of the building. Nosey stayed with a friend of his the other night at one of these swell residential hotels and found out that some people press their clothes at midnight, others practice on a ukelele at one-thirty in the morning, while others calmly engage in a dispute over pork chops which were left in the ice box. There were some noises which Nosey could not fathom and which resembled the old time free-for-all fight. The dogs and cats which are also roomers in the same hostelry on the same terms with the paid guests also have their midnight difficulties aside from the fact that they visit your rooms if your door is left open. The garage for these residential hotels is on the street in front. Nosey knows now why such a variegated assortment of people come from any one house at a time. It is much like New York with the exception that there are no house rent parties on each Saturday night. But these will come this winter.

Vaudeville and Movie Review.
THE GRAND
'Why Worry, a real live musical whirl, opened up to a capacity house on Monday night. In the chorus new dances could be seen and in the cast Miss Ida Brown, Teresa Burrows, John Whitby and Ida Cash looked like million dollar bills. Quintard Miller has outdone himself in producing this musical vehicle. Next week we will give a detailed review.
THE AVENUE
Vaudeville in all its glory reigned supreme here on Saturday. The Dewey Trio was perfection in comedy and harmony singing and Austin and Dekaney wrecked the bill. On Sunday a new bill was presented and the hit act of the bill was the Dahomanian Trio, and they really have the goods, real singing and some dancing, the makings of a big time attraction. The White acts were all up to the standard and well pleased the patrons.
A first class vandewille bill graces the boards here for the week. Among the acts on the bill are Baker & Baker, Baby Benbow, Chas. Gaines, and Grice and Coleman.

Mr. Walker is always on the alert to give the patrons the best that the market affords. The management of the famous Lincoln Gardens on East 31st are also installing a Dave Peyton Cleff Club Orchestra, which means that these places will do the business.

Mr. Peyton intends to give the public the greatest music they have ever heard at the Lincoln Gardens and the Sunset. Aside from playing that peppy dance music his orchestras are fully able to give a first class concert and entertain the people with creative musical novelties. In two weeks, the sign of Dave Peyton's Cleff Club Orchestra over the door of the amusement places will mean a guarantee of first class music. Aside from these activities Mr. Peyton controls the orchestra in the Grand theatre, which stands as one of the best organizations in the country.

Facts! Facts! Theatre Goers!
No doubt you are unaware of the fact, that there is concerted movement on foot among the proprietors of SOUTH SIDE THEATRES, patronized by our people, to give them the least service for the highest cost, thus perpetrating a gross injustice on the public.
In pursuance of this policy the OWL and ATLAS THEATRES have dispensed with their orchestras and others have cut to the lowest number that they think the public will tolerate.
Musician's Union, Local 208 has attempted to negotiate with these proprietors, relative to adjusting these matters, but they have the audacity to treat the musicians with contempt seemingly not caring to negotiate, with race men on the recognized principle of collective bargaining. Instead they have employed legal aid seeking to evade the issue, on some legal technicality.
The musicians are merely contending for the same wage that white musicians receive for similar work, which averages $7.50 per day, a very modest sum, considering the great sacrifices required to develop musical proficiency.
In moving picture theatres, each one hundred seats once filled at 20 cents admission, can and should support one musician, thus leaving $12.50 for overhead, etc. (Observe that this is on each one hundred seats once filled). Now these places average at least two (2) capacities a day, and we ask you what becomes of the vast profits, from the three, and sometimes four capacity houses they show to, the greater part of the year.
We feel that these employers in all fairness to their patrons can and should employ musicians on this proportional basis, and the patrons in justice to themselves, should demand that a much larger share of this rich harvest, garnered from the race, should be returned to race employees.

RE-OPEN DANCING CLASS AT UNITY HALL
RE-OPEN DANCING CLASS AT UNITY HALL
Friday, September 9, 1921, will witness the grand reopening of the Friday night dancing class that has been in progress under the management of Prof. A. C. Elgar and Bert Hall for the past three years, with Prof. Bobby Hardin, instructor in all the latest dances.
It is very fitting to say that the conduct during the existence of this dancing class has been beyond comment, not having a single refund to anyone for disorderly conduct or as an undesirable. This is remarkable, especially because of the capacity attendance and the length of time that the class has been running.
The hall has been only recently renovated and redecorated, making it the prettiest and most desirable dance hall on the South Side. The usual custom will be followed to the letter, that of offering personal attention and courtesy to all guests at all times. Politeness and consideration will be the paramount issue of the management.
For once since the beginning of the World War patrons will not be bothered with "War Tax." And greatest of all is, the music will be furnished cash Friday night by the Eligar. Or the music will be offered and Dreamland fame. Thus it goes, saying that enjoyment and mercurium will be had by all.
AUTUMN FOLLIES AT THE LINCOLN GARDENS
On September 22nd a new creation will be offered at the Lincoln Gardens. The Antunia Follies, a musical melange will grace this beautiful amusement palace. There will be souvenirs and confetti galore. Dave Peyton's Chicago Cleff Club Orchestra will furnish the music and a gang of pretty girls will strut their stuff. Mr. Bud Red, the manager, is leaving no stone unturned to make this event the greatest in the history of the place.
THE CHICAGO WHIP
MUSIC
Just at this time of the year the thoughts of the music student are centered on where and with whom he shall study. To the student who is resuming study with a chosen teacher-there is little of anxiety; but to those who are beginning the serious study of music or who for various reasons feel it best to change from a former instructor there arises many necessary considerations.
It is not wise always to choose a school or teacher simply because one's friends have chosen them and have apparently been benefited by the instruction. Nor is it always best to choose a school solely because of its great reputation. One should decide definitely why he wishes to study—whether to eventually become a teacher or a concert artist—to what extent he can reasonably hope to study both, as to the length of time given and to his financial condition, and third, but most important of all, whether or not he is in earnest and willing to face hard work and discouragements with determination and capability to "stick to it" and succeed. Generally the school to be chosen is the one where one is certain of good instruction, the size or reputation of the school not always insuring this necessity—and not so hard as it may be spared in trying to determine this latter, as better to obtain an excellent teacher a small school than to accept as instructor one of lesser capability in a large school. To the student of limited finances this thought is especially given. Do not make the mistake of choosing unwisely. As to the teachers to be chosen—if possible try to get one who is well prepared and who has also broad experience in teaching. This cannot always be done. But it is most advantageous as to the type and amount of work which the student may accomplish. Having chosen a school and a teacher, believe in both, accept willingly all instruction and advice constantly and conscientiously. Success must follow.

The Paradise of Fools.
The Paradise of Fools.
A little boy with big wistful eyes sat in a large church one Sunday night and listened to the words of a great southern white man. The little boy was surrounded by people of dark skin who moaned and crooned their approval to what the speaker said. Occasionally a strong voice quaking with emotion would rise over the mellow tones of the orator and the cry of "Truth, sir; truth, sir," would echo through the church immediately followed by a chirping chorus of "yes, yes!" The speaker was telling how much he loved his brother in black and how he used to clasp his chubby baby arms around the neck of his old black Mammy. Such words were typical of all mixed gatherings below the Mason and Dixon Line and the little boy with big wistful eyes would leave feeling so happy and jubilant, because everybody else was happy and the speaker had brought a message of joy.
The little boy with wistful eyes one day, while in one of the curious moods of childhood, asked his father why the people left the meetings filled with joy and happiness. The father pondered and, smiling wearily, answered: "Son, the people don't understand and the white man has fooled them." Years flew by and the little boy has ripened into manhood, while the father has long since departed his life. The man with the wistful eyes was recently asked why he was so bitter with his own people and why discontent and dissatisfaction seemed to color and permeate his thought. He answered: "Why should I be satisfied and content with the crumbs of life and remain silent as the white man fills my people with fanciful dreams which never come true?" Why should he smile, grin, paw and faun while the door of life's good things is locked unto him? Why shouldn't he be discontent and bitter?
Human progress is the direct result of dissatisfaction and unrest. While a man is satisfied, advancement and elevation are out of the question. As long as the black man objects to the unfolding of the truth which destroys his imaginary castles and puts him face to face with things as they are, so long will he play the role of the half man and so long will be munch upon the crusts of civilization. Why should he wish to deceive himself and feel good?
Some object to graphic portrayal of lynchings, mumbling that they cause them to feel too badly. The southern white men, recognizing this fact and not wanting his good "beast of burden" to become balky, speedily seized the "good old Mammy idea" and that was what the little wistful-eyed boy had listened to.
It is extremely tedious and difficult and emphatically compromising and cowardly for a black man to sugar-coat the truth and allow his people to live in the "Paradise of Fools." In the Paradise of Fools, where the wretched fleep with weak and unsteady wings, bent on a collision with worse conditions, where the poor gloat over tattered rags and measly crumbs, where those who are beaten and bruised, are made to feel safe and secure. The Paradise of Fools is glutted up with the souls of black folks who have been made to "feel good" when starvation, deprivation and disorder lurked on all sides; where votes count naught and labor goes unrewarded. This is the Paradise of Fools, where false prophets have inveigled the great mass of our people.
If the time is ever to come when truth will supplant lies and the Paradise of Fools is to be banished from our lives, it has arrived. The time for the destruction of political foibles and economic fallacies has arrived. The time to jeer at the white orators who tell of their black Mammies and their great love is here. The time for great joy and undiluted pleasure is far distant. Our enemies are legion and our ranks are weak and disheveled. Our soldiers and cohorts are in the Paradise of Fools. Let idiots and scatter-brains "feel good." Let us grimly consider the situation as it is. Votes without representation; taxation without protection; jobs with little pay or no jobs at all, and false friends who lure us into the Paradise of Fools.
Agents of the Devil.
Agents of the Devil.
Those who rob the poor and filch the hard-carned money from their brothers who seek shelter from rain and snow are in the employ of Satan himself and they help the Evil One bring shame and suffering to human kind. On October the first the Agents of the Devil will be seen in full action, for that is the day when rents will be raised and tenants will be evicted. The Black people in Chicago are paying rents all out of proportion with the exorbitant prices which are squeezed out of citizens of whiter skin; but the worst part of this embarrassing situation is the fact the black realty dealers are helping to persecute their own people. In almost every case where rent has been raised the work of some shrewd, scheming renting agent may be found.
The black real estate men of Chicago could not very well stand close investigation, while they may be "within the law," hard bargains have been driven and every advantage of their own people has been taken. Those who watered the price of real estate to black people and who have been accessories to the inflating of rents are creating untold misery and suffering and they surely seem to be agents and aids of the Devil himself.
TORIAL
HEALTH HINTS
By Dr. Troy Smith
Health education in the public schools has done a great the spread of disease, especially tuberculosis. Children are mental rules of hygiene and sanitation in the school room knowledge home to their parents. In this way parents often become enlightened and the simple teachings of health are carried far beyond the school room. The ordinary child does not have to attend school long before he knows the simple rules of hygiene, mainly; the dangers of putting into the mouth articles other than food, of swapping chewing gum, fruits and candies; the fact that the common drinking cup is oftentime the means of spreading disease from or to someone else; also that it is not only impolite but pernicious to cough or sneeze without first covering the nose and mouth, and the importance of cleanliness of face and hands, and habits of freshening, pure air, of standing and walking correctly, and of good health in general.
A. B.
Good health is necessary for the growth and proper development of the child both physically and mentally. The piny and physically unight child is always backward or abnormal in its mental makeup. Healthy and even rough play, with its accompanying contact with other developing personalities, is essential for physical upbuilding and mental growth. Any factor then which limits or prevents a child from engaging in what has been termed 'the normal activities of the growing child' must be considered a menace to its health and be taken into consideration. A child may fall well within the accepted limits as to weight, height, etc., and yet be so handicapped by physical limitations that its normal activities are seriously interfered with.
THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL
National Meetings a Menace.
(Washington Tribune)
(Washington Tribune)
During the month of August there were quite a number of national meetings among our group.
The Woodman met in Denver, Colo., the Knights of Pythias in Topeka, Kans., the Ellis in Boston, Mass., the Negro Women's Republican League met in Kansas City, Mo., the Universal Negro Improvement Association met in New York, the National Negro Business League met in Atlanta, Ga., and then they met two meetings in New Orleans this month. In addition to these national meetings there have been state meetings of various types and kinds.
The Tribune takes the position that this annual meeting business has become a menace to the economic and social welfare of the race. The main feature of the majority of these annual meetings is the ELECTION OF OFFICERS. Politics, graft and chicory run rampant in many states and groups of persons that can assemble and juggle the slackest get the offices.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars are being literally thrown to the winds in sending delegates to the various national and state meetings. Four delegates from this city to Denver spent $500 in railroad fares and board bills. Thousands of people will flood to Chicago and New York to attend the National Negro Improvement Association on these two meetings. What return is the Race getting from this annual drain on its purse that is any way commensurate with this enormous outlay? More than $3,000,000 have been spent by our group this summer on "annual meetings" while the Race suffers from economic weakness that is alarming.
The colony people in opposition are independent far more upon an organized economic program than upon these annual meetings of fraternal and social organizations.
Let's be practical. These lodges will spend thousands of dollars in sending delegates to all annual meetings to elect some man as Grand this and Grand that, yet often fail to pay some poor member at home the small sum of $300 for a week's rent and he and him and them have not been paid for 20 years, and then require from sixty to ninety days to settle the claim.
Take the $3,000,000 spent this summer on these "annual" affairs and how far would that amount go in establishing a chain of stores; in building homes; in operating factories. This amount of money could be divided between six cities, giving $500,000 to each of them. Allowing $200,000 for capital of one business house, this would give 25 new business establishments in each of these six cities; or 150 new places of business with $200,000 for each establishment. In each of these million dollars were divided into twelve parts of $250,000; and that would give each of 12 cities 25 new places of business with a capital of $10,000. Twelve cities with twenty-five new business enterprises would give the race 300 new establishments in the United States with $10,000 capital.
Which would help to solve our problems and bring impartial justice sooner: the establishment of 300 new business enterprises each year with a capital of $10,000, each, or the continuation of these "annual meetings" resulting in the squandering of these opportunities.
UNDER THE LASH OF THE
WHIP
Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting
Errors and Eoils.
Chas. Cottrill of Toledo, Ohio; one of the prominent politicians who supported President Harding, has been offered a very inferior and insignificant position as a deputy collector of Internal Revenue for Baltimore. This job only pays $2,500 a year and inasmuch as it is conferred as an honor to the members of the black race it is regretted that such small consideration is shown to our foremost political representatives. Mr. Cottrill will not accept the position. Remember the Whip's editorial. "Beware the Ides of March"!
The Washington Tribune very skilfully points out that over three million dollars have been spent this summer sending delegates to conventions. An enormous outlay. This three million dollars would have capitalized three hundred business enterprises with ten thousand dollars each and would have put thousands of people to work. It is well said that these annual meetings result in the squandering of money and the waste of opportunity.
Emmet Scott, Secretary of Howard University, states that he has not used his influence to prevent the confirmation of Henry Lincoln Johnston to the position of Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia. It is hard to put new ideas in an old head, but we are hopeful of Mr. Scott's departure from the reactionary policies of some of his associates and if he had taken issue with the famous actions of Linc. Johnson and protested against his appointment he would have given courage to those who are hoping for a real virile representation.
Why don't the Aldermen from the Second Ward introduce a resolution in the city council objecting to the advent of the Ku Klux Klan in the City of Chicago. These two aldermen are members of our race and one of them is floor leader for the Mayor, William Hale Thompson. The people of Chicago are disgraced by the cowardly tactics of their representatives and their chosen spokesmen always open their mouths at the wrong time and then say the wrong thing.
It is reported that several prominent black people have been refused choice seats in the Tivoli Theater. There is a Civil Rights Bill in Illinois which will give them adequate redress and they only need to make out a case. Why are they too cheap to hire a lawyer? All they do is to complain.
