He is said to have kept it in the traditional clay pots. Bandit Was "Sick." Late Monday afternoon a man areed asking for the faith healer, saying that he was terriblely sick. The healer began to pray with him. Shortly after the telephone rang, and the minister went into the next room to answer it, and on returning, found the "sick" man prowling through his desk. Two shots in quick succession were heard from the outside, and a moment later the bandit dashed out bearing a bundle. The minister was found lying dead on the floor.

Dearborn Hospital, where she had been taken following her poisoning by carbolic acid. It is thought she drank the acid with suicidal intent. "A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY Army Officer Quits Klan When He Finds It Not 100% American The mask of secrecy has been torn from the Ku Klux Klan by the Press Publishing Co. (The New York World), and in a series of articles now being distributed among metropolitan newspapers, exposes the national menace of the "Invisible Empire." Investigators have amassed an amazing amount of information concerning the Klan, including the ritual and the names and addresses of the officers of the organization throughout the country. It is charged that memberships in the Ku Klux are now peddled from house to house by saloonmen who are called "Kleugles." The stage manager to whom they report is called the "King Kleagle." He in turn reports to the "Grand Gooblin" who is nothing more or less than a District Manager. $10.00 is charged for each membership. Bound To Obedience It is pointed out that each member of the Klan is not initiated as in other organizations, but is naturalized, with an oath which binds them to obedience to an "Emperor" or life. In a report made to "Emperor" Simmons on July 2 last, Imperial Kilegale Clarke, who still spells his own name with a "c" instead of a "k," wrote: "In the past three of four months we have added to our membership a little more than 48,000 members. In all my years of experience in organization work I have never seen anything to equal the clamor throughout the Nation for the Klan. The headquarters for the domain chiefs are located in Washington. In diarapolis, Denver, Dallas, Houston and Los Angeles. In all these cities our investigators are working eight hours a day, and in most instances are three and four months behind their lists of applicants. "Completely Camouflaged". "Although we are located in all the cities named," the Imperial Kleagle added, "with magnificent office forces on the job, the enemy" has yet to locate us; even though they have made diligent search. We are completely camouflaged in each of these cities, and we are not in the immediate vicinity if we are located (i.e. discovered) any city where headquarters have been established." Army Invaded by Ku Klux It has also been learned that salesmen of the Klan have been peddling memberships in the army and navy of the United States. One officer in the army, finding that although the Klan boasted 100 per cent Americanism, he could not conscientiously remain a member of both the army and the Ku Klux Klan. 'He is Captain Henry Fry, of Chattanooga. Officer Sends in Resignation. Captain Fry therefore sent in his resignation from the Ku Klux Klan with the following letter: "You are hereby notified that I have this day voluntarily withdrawn as a citizen of the invisible empire, Knights of the Loyal Order of the Eagle, for longer. Consider myself in any way connected with the organization of the months up to the day in the Invisible Empire, and months later, were sent as a Kleagle. I have reached the conclusion that your proposition is a historical fraud; that it is a money-making scheme, and that you are engaged in an evil propaganda in promoting unwarranted religious and racial hatred against the American people, and that in the interest of decent Americanism, it should be (Continued on Page 2.) Kicked Out Of G.O. P., Politicians Call National Meeting WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 17.—The rising tide of resentment against the Republican party is gradually nearing its crest, according to observations made by politicians throughout the country. As a result, a national meeting has been called to meet in Washington simultaneously with the reassembling of Congress. It is intended to ask the Republican party plainly just where the Race stands, and getting an unattavorable reply, to take steps for future action. Started in Virginia The movement to demand recognition was started in Virginia, where the "fily-white" organization refused to recognize regularly elected delegates and forcibly ejected them from the convention. Joseph R. Pollard is directing the light in that state, and John Mond, the director of Richmond, has come forward as candidate for governor. A full state ticket has been put in the field. New Party in Louisville Dissatisfied with treatment accorded voters in Louisville, a new party has been formed, known as the Lincoln Independent party. A full city and county ticket has been put into the field, Editor Warley is at the head of the movement, and predicts that the new party will poll 100,000 votes in that city. The unrest has reached as far down as Georgia, where a full state ticket has been put into the field from the government down. The action of the insurgents is due to the fact that the Republican party has generally ignored pre-election promises throughout the country, and has thrown them, bag and baggage, completely out of the party. WHITE WOMAN HIRED MAN TO KILLHERHUSBAND KINSTON, N. C. Sept. 17—M murder plot without rival in the animals of North Carolina has been unearthed in the confession of Wright Rouse, a middle aged farmer, who admits that he slew William Whitley, white, on August 3. Rouse when arrested stoutly contended that he killed Whitley acting under orders of Mrs. Sarah Whitley, and Thomas Hayes, white, Mrs. Whitley's lover. Hayes and Mrs. Whitley at first denied the story, but now admit that they had also planned to put Hayes' wife out of the way. According to the official story, Rouse killed Whitley and then placed his body upon the railroad tracks. Hobo Bites Off Benefactor's Lip James Perry, 40, 528 E. 39th St., is in the Provident Hospital with his lower lip bitten completely off as a result of a fight with one Ellis, whom he had given room and board free for two and one-half months. When Perry ordered Ellis from his home, Ellis engaged him in a fight, and hit Perry's lower lip entirely away. He then escaped. FUGITIVE 15 YEARS CAPTURED FLORENCE. Ma., Sept. 17—Chester Carroll, after fifteen years of freedom, during which time he was sought for the killing of Brooks Tilden has been arrested. The widow was killed at asfestival at the Springfield in 1906, when the bullet intended for another man accidently struck him. DR. BOYDFATALLY SHOT AT BAPTIST CONVENTION Intercepts Bullet Fired By Jealous Husband For Other Man. NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 17.—The Rev. Dr. J. W. Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., and Mrs. Janie Miller, a New Orleans woman, are dying at the Charity Hospital here as the result of a shooting affray which occurred at the closing session Sunday night of the National Baptist Convention here. Scores of persons, barely missed serious injury in the panic which ensued among the 2,000 persons crowded into the auditorium. Mrs. Miller's Husband Held David Miller, the woman's husband, is held for the shooting, the motive of which, the police say, was jealousy. According to their reports all the nice bullets used by Miller were intended to kill Robert Boyd was the victim or a stray shot. Hold No Hope for Recovery. Rev. Bowl is secretary of the Baptist Board of Education. He is wounded in the breast and at Charity Hospital tonight was said to have no chance of recovery. The police have been unable to verify a report that another man was shot and carried away by friends in an automobile. The big chorus of singers, which has played a prominent part in the convention, sang to quiet the crowd, and officers of the organization circulated among the throng exhorting all to be calm. At the hospital Mrs. Miller made a statement that her husband had been following her all day and that she went to the tabernacle to escape him. JUDGE ORDERS PROBE OF WHIPPING OF GIRLS GREENWOOD, S. C., Sept. 17—Judge C. C. Featherstone has ordered an investigation of the public floggings of Jessie and Julia Valentine by a mob of white men here last week. In his charge to the grand jury he said: "The city officials know the men, or some of them, who took the prisoners from their custody. There are others who know the facts, and you as grand jurors have the power to Summon and force to come before you and testify any witnesses whom you please. I will see to it that in your investigation you have the full power of the law to support you. You will decide when to make this investigation, and I am going to authorize you to take all of the time which you may regard as necessary." "You will find out the facts, the man who engaged in this alleged lawful enterprise and then report these facts to the Court, together with the names of the witnesses. The necessary indictment will be prepared and the alleged violators of the law will be put on trial." MYSTERY LOOMS AROUND GIRLS' DEATH Hidden in the sand and weeds in a vacant lot near 37th street and Vincennes avenue the dead body of a beautifully colored girl has been found. The girl was clad expensively and showed no traces of violence. At the present the body has not been identified. It lies in the morgue of the Fort Dearborn hospital. Foul play is suspected. African Visitors In Chicago මුදු Mrs. Casel Hayford, and her niece, Miss Kathleen Easmon, natives of Sierra Leone, Africa, are now in Chicago to interest Americans in their project of building industrial schools on the west coast of Africa. Jackson To Offer Anti-Ku Klux Resolution On Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock the Editor of the Chicago Whip called at the offices of Major R. R. Jackson, Alderman of Chicago's Second Ward. The Alderman being a Colored man, was asked if he would introduce a resolution into the city council condemning the activities of the Ku Klux Klan and scoring their presence in the city. Mr. Jackson, with his characteristic smile, answered: "Go draw up the resolution, frame it without prejudice and bitterness, and I will present it at the next meeting of the city council which takes place on the 19th of September." Major Jackson stated that he was always smiling behind that smile was a grim fighting spirit and that the actions of the city councils in New York, Philadelphia and Cleveland could not be ignored and Chicago would not tolerate the Ku Klux Klan if his influence in the city council was felt. The public waits with bated breath for the proposed resolution. SPIRIT MEN AWAY FROM MOF JESUP, Ga., Sept. 17—Joe Jordan, and James Harvey were spirited out of this city immediately after their conviction on charges of attacking a white woman. It was felt that they were in danger of being lynched. Read, Think and Act ors In Chicago her niece, Miss Kathleen Easmon, are now in Chicago to interest building industrial schools on the "Linc" Johnson Loses Fight For Appointment WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 17.—"Line" Johnson has lost his fight for office, and will not be confirmed as Register of Deeds for the District of Columbia, if the report of the subcommittee to reject his nomination carries weight with the Senate District Committee when returned to that body. It is reported that the sub-committee, to whom the charges were referred for investigation, has reported that his confirmation should be refused. President Harding sent the name of Henry Lincoln Johnson to the Senate recently to be appointed Recorder of Deeds. This appointment was supposed to be a reward for "faithful service." Upon the presentation of Johnson's name before the Senate there was considerable opposition to his confirmation, this opposition coming from both races. The Senate refused to confirm the appointment and referred it to the Senate Committee on District Affairs which in turn referred it to a sub-committee of that committee. The sub-committee's recommendation that confirmation be refused is said to have killed the Georgia "Peach's" chances. --- EIGHT PAGES --- PRICE FIVE CENTS GOLD ttee of 5 'COMMITTEEOF5 CLAIMS MORONS INFEST SOCIETY Third Series Of Letters Denounces Moral Degenerates Who Star As Entertainers. Never before in the history of Chicago's social life has any movement created such tremendous interest as has the mysterious Committee of Five's attempt to disinfect and de-louse society. It is the sole topic of conversation wherever men and women congregate. Men of affairs to whom social worries ordinarily appear as a termite in their teapot are giving it as much attention as the most dyed-in-the-wool social butterfly. To Reveal Committee's Identity Two questions are on every lip, First, who compose the Committee of Five? Second, whom are they hitting next? This newspaper announces that its investigators are working on several clues, at least one of which, it can be said with certainty will reveal the identity of this mysterious "committee." It can be safely said, that in an early issue of the Whip, the identity of the Committee of Five will be exposed, and they will be called upon to substantiate their charges. Attack Musical Artists Letters were sent this week to social leaders by the Committee of Five denouncing the employment of certain men as solosists and entertainers at social functions who are known to be morons and moral degenerates. Especially viriolite is the attack upon a certain well known baritone, who is very frequently in evidence where solos are required. Not only is he well known in Chicago, but frequently sings in other cities. He was the most prominent singer at a recent national conference held by a religious body at St. Louis. In the words of the Committee of Five, "No morality can ever be expected to rest in Chicago society as long as it is inflicted with creatures of this type." It is said of him that he was once attacked by a white fireman who broke a pitcher over his head for indecent proposals. The second individual of this same type is associated with a music store on State street, near 36th place. He also is in much evidence where music is needed it is said of him that he be seen almost nightly cruising along Michigan avenue, between 35th and 39th streets, in search of prey. He is also said to be a constant visitor at a dive at a constant visitor at a dive at State streets. The third entertainer who is being attacked has the enviable reputation of having been seen to weep openly in public through haplures because one of his victims had deserted him for more fruitful fields. Repeat Warning Another feature of the letters sent this week is the repetition of the warning sent out last week against the recognition of a certain school teacher, who, the Committee of Five say, outraged decency by marrying a notorious underworld figure. Another was sent to a well known lawyer's wife who was the guest of this school teacher while visiting in the East. It is said that she had been warned by the Committee not to do this. Society was also denounced this week in several anonymous letters for accepting into its folds a certain woman who was "landlady" in a questionable resort in Canada. This woman is the wife of a leading business man, who himself was roped in some time ago by Federal officers on charges of illegally storing whiskey in his place of business. He has also been placed in the limelight recently in other startling disclosures. An indictment is said to hang over his head at the present time. OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT SID HOES Shoes For The Whole Family From Factory To Wearer 3418 S. STATE STREET 2 BLACK MINERS PLAYED BIG PART IN MINGO WAR CHARLESTON, W. Va., Sept. 17—Few people in the world outside of West Virginia know how large a part in the Mingo County Mine War was played by Black Men. It is estimated, however, that fully 30 per cent of the striking miners were men of the Black Race. F. C. King, a young miner, was a member of the miners' army. He herewith gives a striking description of the part of the war he experienced. He said: "I was in France 18 months but this was a bit worse than over there. In the first place our army did not have any leadership. We had no organization or system. Each man chose his own place on the irrigated land, fought the war we should. "Our fellows were lined up on one side of the mountain ridge and the enemy on the other. We fired from behind trees and rocks. We experienced service men and crack shots, but I don't imagine we got many of the other fellows, as we couldn't see where they were and we had to fire blind." "What did we shoot with? Army rifles of 10." "Where did we get them? That's something we are not telling." Had No Machine Guns. "We had just as good ammunition as two other side and plenty of it. Maybe we could compete with them machine guns, but we didn't have any machine guns, but the other side did. For example, we were up there we fought every moment. There was a stant irting from the other side all night as well as day. We didn't dare to take a wink at it." We had bread and cheese with us and we took mouthfuls whenever we had a chance. Two members of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trummen were killed in the Blair engagement, King revealed. He added: "It was farmers' army, but a miscellaneous outfit. On our side were farmers, doctors, merchants, union men of all crafts and other 100 per cent Americans fighting the war under the Constitution of the United States. We didn't have any leadership, but no one. The orders we gave ourselves were to mash any bottles with whisky in them or any stills that we came across. Every man carried out the orders we gave ourselves were destroyed in that part of the country. We fought according to the rules of civil war. We didn't do like the State police on the other side. We had combat afterwards. We had pickets stationed where they could see people coming and learn whether they were enemies or non-combatants." Saw Sheriff of King winemaker in killing of John. Gore famous deputy sheriff and known to kill of the late William H. McCormick. "He was killed up on Blair Mountain after he had killed one of our nigro comrades. He was leaning over the dead man to examinate pockets when another nigro fighting with us under the eve. We took one of his sons prisoner." "He knight, a nigro world war veteran, told of his nights on Hewitt' Creek without sleep. He said: 'More than the war in France, believe me. The fellows on the other side just keep at us all the day with machine guns. They were on the other side of the ridge part time and sometimes on top. Sometimes on top, sometimes on top, after we would drive them on the other side of the ridge. You never times it looked like they used us because sometimes it looked like we had them. MANY HEAR O'DONNEL SPEAK Wendell Phillips School was crowded on last Sunday afternoon to hear Patrick H. O'Donnell speak. He took for his subject, "Shall the Negro Live or Perish Economically?" Always forceful, always earnest, always to the point, yet the speaker outdid himself on this occasion, being interrupted time and again by thunderous applause. He reiterated his oft-repeated warning to our group that if they wished to get anywhere economically, if they wished to gain real freedom, they must get behind Race enterprises, organize Race industries, foster Race business, and unite their financial resources for their own commercial development. He reminded them that the white man no longer considers the Negro his ward, and has long since made up his mind that the Colored brothers must stand upon his own feet and depend upon himself. By popular request the meeting was held under the auspices of the Douglass National Bank, Mr. P. W. Chavers, president, acting as chairman. Brief remarks concerning the history and outlook of the institution were made by the members of the board of directors of the bank prior to the principal address of the afternoon. As a result of the meeting the opening date of the bank will be announced next week. BULLET GLANCES OFF MAN'S WATCH, KILLING ANOTHER INSTEAD Police here have captured and are holding for Little Rock authorities, John Griggs, who is charged with killing Albert Burr, June 16, 1919. Burr was killed when Griggs fired at and wounded the attacker McClure, watch glancing off and killing Burr. Keystone operatives led to the arrest of Griggs. ARMY OFFICER COULD NOT BE GOOD SOLDIER AND KEEP KU KLUX OATH (Continued From Page 1.) suppressed by the Federal and State authori ties. “I further notify you that I utterly reopenate and refuse to be bound in any way by any and all portions of the oath of allegiance to the Invisible Empire formerly taken by me, excepting that portion pledging allegiance to the Constitution of the United States and of my State, with which portion you have camouflaged the real purport and meaning of the oath. The remainder of the batch conflicts with a higher obligation I have previously assumed as an Officer of the Reserve Corps of the United States Army.” “I therefore denounce said remaining portions of said oath as illegal and detriment to the fundamental principles which underlie the entire legal structure of this country. I further decline, any longer, to keep secrecy any part or parts of your scheme to establish in free America an Invisible Empire, fraud lent in its conception, vicious in its nature political in its objects, and subject to the will of a self-constituted Emperor who seeks to exploit the American people for his own personal aggrandizement.” Defies Klan's Threats. "In defiance of your threats of dishonor, disgrace and death, as contained in your ritual—written and copyrighted by yourself—I denounce your ritualistic work as an insult to all Christian people in America." "I further charge that when in your printed literature you claim that your organization is the 'genuine original Klan,' this statement is a fraud historically. While you have without any right whatever—appropriated to yourself the name, regala and certain non-culture of the original Klan, your scheme is radically different in conception, in organization and in purpose. A careful study, which I have made, of the prescript of the original Klan and all available history and literature on the subject, reveals the fact that there is little, if anything, in common between the two organizations. Your false pretenses of 'genuineness' is therefore an insult to the history, the traditions and the entire record of the South." "Ever since your scheme has been actively propagated, there has been a wave of crime against the public, the public's defense of private regulations' of the public peace, committed by men who have gone about their respective communities, wearing masks, and who have been involved in functions of prosecuting attorney, witnesses, judge, jury and executioner, in direct contravention to the bill of rights of the Federal Government, dragged from their beds at night, forebly abdicated on the streets and in their homes, arrested without warrant on the public streets, arrested without warrant on the streets, flogged, tarred and feathered. In two instances helpless women, after being stripped of their clothing, have been similarly malicious." Wore Klan's Regalia. "In nearly every reported case the perpetrators of these acts of lawlessness have worn disguises, described as 'masks and conspicuous clothes, which describe correspondences with the official 'invisible Empire'. In three specific cases of lawlessness have been so openly and flagrantly committed by members of the 'Ku Ku Ku' gang, the Ku Ku Ku gang took official cognizance. In three these instances where responsibility has been fixed, it was very evident that the illegal oath and piracy were construed by your 'Jugging piire' were constituting by your act as granting a license to engage in /secret regulation of the peace by means of anonymous warnings, threats, intimidations, abductions, the "Having studied your scheme, both from the inside and the outside, I have no doubt whatever that practically all of these reported outrages were committed by members of your organization. If it were proved, however, that your citizens were not prima facie responsible, at the same time there exists a moral responsibility, because when one group of people is permitted to go about in disguise it places the community at the mercy of any group which cares to adopt similar tactics." "Everywhere the promoters of your scheme have gone, they have sought to enlist as citizens' the white, gentle, Protestant public officials, especially those having in charge the enforcement of the law. No matter how capable, how efficient and how conscientious a public official may be, if he chances to be a Jew or a Catholic, you not only do not want him, but your organization is now planning actively to cause all the Jews, Catholics and foreign-born naturalized Americans in this country, to be removed from public life. This tampering and meddling with the law-enforcing machinery of the country—under the alleged plea of law and order—is a direct blow at the entire legal machinery of the United States, a condition that, in its nature, approaches anarchy." Breeding Race Hatred "At a time when peaceful relations are existing between the white and black races you are disrupting the industrial conditions of your country by your actions and causing a state of turret that can result only in dangerous and mischievous consensuality. In your religious religion you propagate your organization is scattering broadcast over this country wicked, malicious and inflammatory lies about American and European religions. You brand your movement as being far more vicious than the insidious German propaganda this country prior to our entrance into the recent way. You are publishing, for example, the statement that the Jews are seeking to promote a race war between white people and African Americans, and the Catholic church was responsible for the murder of President Abraham Lincoln.

R. A. C., native Africans, arrived in the city to interest Chicago in their project of building industrial schools on the west coast of Africa. They bring a brighter picture and story of the West Coast than most of those who have visited or worked there. In the cast they have been received by both white and black people with some enthusiasm and they are pleased with the way that New York and Washington have responded to their appeal for funds for a truly worthy cause. Meetings will be arranged during their stay in the city, and Chicago will be given a chance to compete with the east in contributing to the development of the African youth on the West Coast of Africa. The present scheme is to add industrial training to the work already done for the girls in Western Africa with a view to fostering in them a spirit of self-reliance and to encourage in them the cultivation of a higher womanhood. It is estimated that in order to carry the movement through as planned a sum of $80,000 will be required. Toward that sum the Governor of Sierra Leone has agreed to put up $40,000 from the State as soon as they have raised the first $40,000; and the two women are now in this country in the hope of carrying through that plan. Mrs. Hayford's aim is to train girls and then to send them into the interior to take light and understanding to these people before the introduction of railroads carries commercialism among them. It is hard for them to keep their self-respect without money in their pockets, and it is impossible to earn any without previous training. MAN SAVED FROM MOB IN KNOXVILLE FREED BY JURY KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 17. — Frank Martin, who was saved from probable lynching when the sheriff replused a mob of nearly one thousand whites who had gathered around the jail, was released here Thursday morning when the Knox County grand jury refused to indict him. Jessie Parker, white, had appeared before the grand jury and said that she identified Martin by his voice and his teeth. She said his teeth "were quite small 15r a Negro." The man usually held that he was passing near the scene of the alleged assault stealing a ride on a freight train in company with four white men who were also stealing a ride. For the coming north from his home in Alabama, Martin told such a straightforward story of his movements preceding the assault that he was freed in spite of the Parker woman's testimony. J. R. Lewis, white, giving his-home as North Carolina, and his birthplace as Canada, who was a leader in the mob which tried to lynch Martin, has three times attempted suicide by hanging in the cell in the county jail where he has been incarcerated since the storming of the jail BOSTON UNEMPLOYED AUCTION SELVES OFF FOR WORK "Now My Skin Is Like Velvet" BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 17—Unemployed men were placed on the auction block on Boston Common today. Stripped to the waist after the custom of the old slave auctions, they declared their willingness to work by standing before a crowd of thousands, offering their services to the highest bidder. "Shorn lambs of unemployment," their auctioneer, Urbain Ledoux, called them. Ledoux, a philanthropic worker, who recently opened the "Church or the Unemployed," in the West End, led a group of fifty to the Common to bring home, he said, to the people of Boston their stories of human misery, just as William Lloyd Garrison pleaded for the slaves on the same spot seventy years ago. It was to prove that his charges were not parasitic floaters, but instead good citizens out of work that he put some of them on the block, he explained. No Work Offered. Ledoux's efforts to get work for his men were not rewarded. Of the three who stood up for bids none went away to work, although, from the crowd came pledges of help to tide them over a week or two while they sought employment. Their leader said, however that he considered he had succeeded in bringing their plight and the honesty of their purpose to public attention, and he announced that the actor was to be a daily event, to be continued at least for the remainder of the month.

While they munched their sandwiches he called for volunteers to stand at an auction prepared to work a week for the highest bidders. Eight men stepped out, two of them World War veterans, most of them in clothing that was fraved and shoes well down at the heels. Each was asked how long he had been out of work and without food and shelter. One man had not worked for a year. Another had eaten only twice a week in six months of unemployment. Dog Is Auctioned A dog was brought to the block. He was knocked down for $5 with the condition, accepted by the successful bidder, that he be returned to the "Church of the Unemployed" as its mascot. Joseph Mitchell, Colored, was then called. His shoes were without soles and his clothing was ragged. Replying to Ledoux's questions he said he had been without food for days at a time in the six months he has been out of work. There was no bid for his services and the auctioneer called on the crowd to pledge him food and shelter for a week. Mrs. Annie Jackson responded, and went the auctioneer one better by saying she would be responsible for Mitchell's sustenance and shelter for a second week if necessary. Officers Fire Fusillde Officers Johnston, McGruder, Lerov, Lyons and Cogger hired a tusillade of bullets at Horace Samuels, 55, 4731 Rhodes avenue, when he was attempting to escape after being discovered trying to rob an automobile at 39th street and Rhodes avenue.

"If there is any people in all America who exemplify faith, hope and charity, it is the American Negro," said Senator McCormick. "He has faith to struggle and charity to forgive those who have wronged him. "I have introduced in the, United States Senate a bill empowering the President to appoint a Committee on Lynching, and I shall not let up until it becomes a law." Directing his attention to the Ku Klux Klan, Senator McCormick said.

These diseases are oftimes the tragic result of neglect on the part of responsible agencies to give wide public to trustworthy information on the subject. Parents and teachers must prepare to give their growing children the proper training on the fundamental facts of life in order that they shall not fall into mishaps through ignorance or misinformation. The Chicago Urban League, in cooperation with Dr. Ralph Stewart of the U. S. Public Health Service, and Dr. Franklin O. Nichols of the American Social Hygiene Association, is arranging a series of meetings at which the two gentlemen named will lecture on the subject both to the public and to special groups. The lectures will be adapted to mixed audiences and will be accompanied by moving picture views. Those who wish information and the members of special groups in public life who realize the value of such an effort as this and who would welcome suggestions as to the best manner of disseminating information along these lines, are invited to attend the meetings. The places, dates and subjects will be announced later.

In his attempts to gain admission to Northern colleges, George Robinson, Jr., a graduate of Dunbar High School, has found that five prominent Northern schools are now refusing admission to students on account of color. Young Robinson wrote to Williston and Worcester academies in Massachusetts, and one in Maine and New Jersey each, all of which refused him admission. The fifth school was Tilton Institute, in New Hampshire. The dean of that institution, mistaking Robinson for a white man, wrote him: "Knowing that you are from the South, it may interest you to know that we do not accept Negro students. We therefore accept your application with pleasure." Opens Shoe Store Sid Weisberg, formerly with the South Star Loan Bank, 3028 State street, has opened a shoe store at 3418 State street.

TO THE CITIZENS OF CHICAGO I wish to state that a number of leading citizens called upon me to accept the General Chairmanship of the Fort Dearborn Hospital and Training School for Nurses in their Fund-Raising campaign for $100,000. I hesitated for some time, owing to the many business interests with which I am connected, that require my personal attention, and I was loath to accept the honor at this time, but after listening to their most worthy and human appeal, I investigated the institution, and the man who were directors and advisory members of the board, and found them some of the prominent business men residing in the immediate community, in whom the management could safely be entrusted for the benefit of the masses, second to none, and that the Fort Dearborn Hospital and Training School for Nurses, being a real public institution, controlled by public spirited men for the public good, with a charter, not for profit, and not owned by physicians, have a right to appeal to the public at large for funds to carry on the work of the institution of which a large part is charitable. Therefore, I consented to the General Chairman of the campaign, and have surrounded myself with many of the leading white and colored men and women to carry on this movement. Therefore, I now ask and desire loyalty and co-operation from the colored men and women as well as the white people who can be served in the area of this institution for their hearty support. I have: every reason to believe that my request will be granted and that a Greater Fort Dearborn Hospital and Training School will become a reality within the next thirty days, and that it will stand out as a monument to the Community's Progress.

PHILADELPHIANS PREPARING FOR BIG WORLD FAIR PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 14. The Philadelphia Autumn Fair Association, embracing in its membership most of the leading Colored men and women of this city, perceiving the need of not only acquainting the Caucasian with the historical, educational, industrial and Commercial progress of the Negro and his advance in the arts and sciences, but the absolute necessity of showing to colored people everywhere what each one is doing of a noteworthy character in his particular line, formed themselves into a corporate body. In 1926, the Sesqui-Centennial, or the largest world's fair the world has ever seen is to be held in Philadelphia. Heretofore on such occasions the Negro exhibition has been the last thought of by the promoters, and in consequence their exhibits have been incomplete and set off in some remote corner. In order to remedy this condition the Autumn Fair Association was formed with the purpose of holding an Autumn Fair annually, so as to insure the most creditable Negro exhibition in the world's history at great cost. To this end the City Council has generously appropriated $10,000 for the first Autumn Fair to be held in Philadelphia this fall—October 16-27. This sum will be used largely in meeting expenses of installing exhibits. The exhibition is to be a Panorama of Progress, of Fifty Years of Race Development, and will embrace spectacular and educational pageants, parades, amusements, band concerts, baby contests, community singing with 1,000 voices, athletic contests, etc. This exhibition is not limited to residents of Philadelphia or Pennsylvania, but will include the handwork and creditable productions of Negroes from all parts of the world. Mr. Beresford Gale, member of the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, a prosperous business man of large experience, is the president of the Autumn Fair Association. Mr. E. T. Atwell, for many years business agent at Tuskegee, and at present National Director, work among Colored people Community Service, is National Director. Mr. Walter W. H. Casselle, leading undertaker, is the treasurer; Dr Charles A. Lewis, prominent physician is secretary and chairman of publicity The Commercial Museum, containing 88,000 square feet of floor space, the post ideal exhibition floor in America, has been secured. Persons who have accomplished any kind of creditable work suitable for exhibit purposes are urged to send in their exhibits at once. Five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) in prizes will be given to the successful contestants, or those displaying the M. is yours. Use her world-r ularly and have beautiful hair.

PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS ORGANIZATION IS MADE PERMANENT PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS ORGANIZATION IS MADE PERMANENT NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 17.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today made public the text of a cablegram sent by Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Secretary of the Pan-African Congress, which stated that the sessions of the Congress were being attended by delegates from thirty countries, and that a permanent organization of the Congress had been effected. The cablegram reads as follows: J. W. Johnson, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York. Seven sessions successful. Thirty Countries. Audiences two thousand. Permanent organization. At the session in London, England, Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois read the manifesto of the Congress which protests against colored people being treated as uncivilized, and argues that the experiments of Negro self-government in Haiti and Liberia, and of the mulatto democracies in South America have not been failures. The manifesto demands enfranchisement based on educational qualifications alone, and urges that it is the duty of the world to assist in every way the advancement of backward and suppressed groups of mankind. SUPREME COURT WRIT CANNOT HALT ELAINE EXECUTIONS WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.—Execution of the six farmers, convicted of murder in connection with the Elaine (Ark.) riots of two years ago which has been set for Sept. 23 cannot be prevented or deferred through filing with the clerk of the United States Supreme Court of an application for a writ of certiorari, officials of the court said today. Court officials, when advised that application for a writ had been forwarded by their counsel from Little Rock, Ark., pointed out that the court does not convene until Oct. 3, and consequently before action could be taken on the application the order for execution would have been carried out. The only Federal judicial action which would operate to stay the execution, court officials said, would be an order for a stay issued by a Justice of the Supreme Court upon showing by the condemned men's counsel.

This was occasioned by an article in the Washington Evening Star of August 19, carrying the following news: "Sweeping changes in reorganization of all cavalry units of the Army, placing the second Cavalry Division, comprising the 3d and 4th brigades and the 3d and 4th Machine Gun squadrons, on the inactive list and demobilizing units of the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th and 15th Cavalry regiments, were ordered today by the War Department."

Says her hair has grown 28 inches long by using this wonderful hair grower O! NOSEY was a "first nighter" at Gilpin The Playhouse, taking in Gilpin at his best. He sat tight behind one of Chicago's leading society gentlemen. It appeared that the gentleman wanted extra good seats on the main floor and had a beautiful little "pink faced" lady buy the tickets. The "pink-faced" lady did not know that the gentleman was coming with his wife and when she bought tickets for her gentleman friend she thought she would buy a ticket for herself so that she could see the show seated next to her gentleman friend. There liked to have been a royal party when the beautiful little pink lady came in late and found out that her gentleman friend was there with another lady and when she divined that the "other" lady was the wife of her gentleman friend she was really ready to put on a scene that would have made Gilpin look like a back stage man. Whatever the gentleman passed to the pink-faced lady certainly made her keep quiet and Nosey suggests that if any man wants to know how to handle such a situation like this, get in touch with this gentleman. He knows. ONE of the best jokes in the history of Indiana Avenue was pulled last Friday night and five "ladies" are as sore as they can be. A gentleman appeared with a roll as big as a cow and a fine rocok coat and silk hat. Well, he bought one drink for them all, allowing the "ladies" to see the hundred dollar bills on the inner side of the roll. Well, then the ladies bought and bought until they really did make the stunning "visitor" really happy. He drew out his roll and cast bills up to the ceiling. They floated down on the heated, smoke-laden air as only crisp new bills will do. The ladies made haste letters that the currency as the gentleman sailed the gray river to the states, a silver lining trailing gleefully in his wake. When the ladies looked at the bills they saw the name of a prominent business college printed in bold letters thereon. Nosey did not stay for the sermon, but the ladies will look at every other man with a silk hat and a roll before they "loosen up." SOMEONE WHO LOOKS like the Chairman of the Committee of Five dropped in on a little party that was being held out south Saturday night and when he entered all of the noise and clatter stopped as it by magic. Nosey was sitting back in the corner figuring which one of the gentlemen he would have to steer home and he smiled as he recognized the man who had knocked at the door. The lady of the house went to the door thinking that it was a late guest and when she saw the man she wanted to shut the door, but had it open too wide and concluded that the chairman had already taken his notes. The man weekly asked if they had sent for a breadhead a sigh of relief, the glasses clinked merrily, the music resumed its jazzy dizzy strains and the lady said "you are at the wrong apartment." Good night." Nosey is glad that The Whip is going to name the members of the Committee of Five next week so that none will be in doubt when the Chairman or any member of the Committee appears on the scene. EVERY NOW AND THEN Nosey makes a study of the corn complete activities of some one person. The man that has most recently claimed Nosey's attention is that real estate dealer who gets to his office before six in the morning some mornings and meets some of his lady "prospects" waiting on the sidewalk for his arrival. Nosey counted the visitors durin gthe day (leaving out those who remained more than a half day on one visit) and noted that fifty-seven women, called and only nine entered the office. Nosey then remembered that this stout gentleman was a good church member and therefore would naturally have more lady customers than men. Ladies go to church more than the men. YOU MUST HAVE a real good car if you want enjoyment out of this life. Nosey was out on the lonesome road in a car that he had borrowed from a friend. He stopped his car in a lonesome stretch of a west side park as he noted an officer and three plain clothes men interviewing the passengers in another car. Nosey smiled his cynical smile when he recognized the Bean Brummel with his "fair doll" trying to convince the girl that the fair doll will not give a fair doll but merely looked like on. For a man in an entirely different profession he made the best lawyer Nosey ever heard. The couple did not have to go to the station but Nosey knows that this married Bean Brummel with the pretty little car will certainly take care of those kind officers. Nosey cannot be bribed. Others have tried it. Arrest Chauffeur Dave Knight, 4719 Indiana avenue was arrested September 11 after he had struck his wife with the car. 5421 Sister艾德 with her automobile.

Al THE CHICAGO WHIP MUSIC "Whither are we drifting." Sometimes it happens that a chance remark brings to its hearers an abrupt and full realization of conditions that should be given more consideration than they are receiving. When a remark is written, a wish changed if the matter were made clear. Such a remark was heard recently. Two young music students were discussing their own lengthy explanation as to the reasons one teacher gave for being late to lessons of often shortening the lesson period and of letting the pupils study any prices he so desired, and so on. "O, well, the majority of them don't care whether you really develop into a musician or not—what they want is money, money, money, money. You should give a big exhibition now and then—that's all. That the young student was wrong in thinking that the majority of teachers fall into the music profession, does not mean very much as to show off, does not mean very much as to the attitude and feeling of the public toward private teachers of music if the idea gains ground. It is not that the profession who are lax in their duty of real instructors and who are really guilty in the matter of shortening lessons and of overcrowding their lists in the mad effort for human development. It is to be deplored that there is any truth at all in the statement of that young man, the fact that in an ever increasing measure of the population of the country, that they will slowly but certainly undermine the structure of musical strength in a community must be faced. Not that those who are not interested in art will immature, not that they art look carefully to their oars and endeavor to ascertain that they are going in the right direction to be to be hoped that there will be a new generation of musicians who have thoughtlessly or knowingly failed to give such honest conscientious instruction that should be given and that speedily conceived and encouraged. It is well worth while from all points of view that music instruction should not drift into rocks and rapids but should be guided and safely steered into the harbor of real accomplishment and helpfulness. Theodore P. Bryant possesses a pleasing baritone voice and instantly gives evidence of careful training. Of the recital on Thesaurus, he plays the second and only the last three numbers. Burleigh's arrangement of "By and By" was admirably suited. Mr. Bryant's range and type of voice are well suited to his clear enunciation, a great asset for a singer. The playing of Harrison Ferrell, violinist, was so successful, great interest and enjoyment. Harrison possesses the usual virtuosity and produces a tone of depth and exquisite sweetness. To such a student of such a wonderful instrument as the violin there is a great sense of joy and reach the pinnacle of success. Mrs. Estella Bonds showed much taste and ability in her accompaniments.

C's have played before here this season, winning a pitchers' duel in the opener, 1 to 0, and losing the second, 8 to 6, the 6 o'clock closing law stopping the game at the end of the seventh inning. Jeffries and Drake both hurled airtight ball in the opener but the latter wabbed just a trifle in the seventh and the A. B. C's chased over the lone tally of the game. The fielding of Charleston, Holloway and Day featured this game. The Giants gained an early lead in the second, driving Mahoney to cover and pounding McClure for a while after he took up the job. After the second inning, however, he was master of the situation. The same teams play again at 3 o'clock. Scores: (First game) Giants..... 000 000 000— 7 4 A. B. Cs.....

CUBANS EVEN UP SERIES, WIN 5 TO 2 Cuban Stars evened up their series with the Detroit Stars by taking Monday afternoon's game, 5 to 2. LaBuce, pitching "ace" of the team from the island, was in superb form and allowed the home team only six hits which he kept well scattered. Cooper opposed and was taken for 11 safeties which netted his opponents five runs, plenty for the victory. When the Stars went into the last inning they were scoreless but a late rally netted two markers averaging a shutout. The game was well played, only one error being made, that being against Riggins. Numerous brilliant plays were produced during its progress. Tuesday will be ladies' day at Mack park where the Cubans and Stars stage the third game of their series. Score: Det.

BRONZE BOXERS FORCING WHITE HOPES TO THE ROPES MONARCHS LOSE ANOTHER MONARCHS LOSE CLOSE CONTEST TO BUCKEYES GAME TO BUCKEYES It is a significant fact that many of the fighters of the Race who should be given just recognition for the championship in the various weights are now planning a new course of action. Several of these are not alone better men than any of those of like class who are continually avoiding a ring showdown but in a few instances are far superior to those who are in the class. This fact is now being discussed by leading promoters. An immediate action is being planned to bring matters to a finish or a positive match within the squared circle instead of the method now being used to ignore these fighters. In several instances where there was clear superiority shown by past ring performances, and general high record, there could be but one reason why these fighters of the Race are prevented from bringing the matter to a showdown. For instance, it is an acknowledged fact by experts of the game that Harry Willis, heavyweight Negro pugilist, is by far superior to Jack Dempsey; Kid MONARCHS LOSE ANOTHER CONTEST TO BUCKEYES Kansas City, Sept. 11.—A single by Rile with two out in the ninth drove in Smith with the winning run, the Columbus Buckeyes again defeating the Monarchs, 3 to 2. Smith had tripled his way on to start the inning. Rogan hurled for the Monarchs and pitched himself out of several tight holes, but he failed to escape in the ninth. The third series will be played today. Either Donaldson or Currie will hurl for the home club. Score: COLUMBUS.

POLLARD AND WILLIAMS TO PLAY HERE Chicago football fans will soon have the rare treat of seeing Fritz Pollard, famous Brown star, who is now playing with the Akron Giants, and "ink" Williams, all eastern and a Brown University star now playing with the Hammond Athletic Club, in action on the gridiron in Chicago. As these professional football teams are composed of the country's best football stars, the scheduled games will be well worth seeing aside from the fact that the mighty Pollard and terrible "Ink" will show their batch of artful football tricks. BUCKNER SOME PROPHET Three months ago, Bill Buckner, former White Sox trainer, in his wise old manner, predicted that the New York Giants and New York Yankees would play rings around Pittsburgh, Boston and other contenders for the glory flag in their respective leagues and would face each other in New York for the world's championship. Hugh Fullerton and others have their ambitions as prophets in the baseball world but Buck can give them cards and spades picking the winners. Naturally. He writes for The Whip. Norfolk, the light heavyweight, is better than either Carpentier or Gibbons. This latter fact is in a position of certain conviction among the authorities and general critics. In fact, large sums of money are waiting to back the Kid against either of these two last stated, with a reasonable assurance of easy victory, and the other a decision without reasonable protest. Now in the case of Kanama Joe Gans, a famous referee made the statement at the ringside of a recent fight, the Dempsey-Carpentier match: "I will be willing to lay $25,000 that Panama Joe Gans can put it over either Johnny Wilson, the mid, champ, or any one near his class." For, and in view of this sentiment in high places, and the existing prejudice which is barring or handicapping these and many other Negro fighters, several of these are contemplating and even planning to go to Europe and gain fresh honors and laurels and then return to this country and force the hand of their enemies in the shape of prejudicial promoters and "pussyfooting fighters." MONARCHS LOSE CLOSE GAME TO BUCKEYES Kansas City, Sept. 12. -The Monarchs suffered their fifth straight defeat Saturday, losing to the Columbus Buckeyes, 1 to 4. Bell, who started on the mound for the local club, had one bad inning, the fifth, when hits coupled with poor fielding on the part of his mates was productive of four tallies. The same teams will play a double-header today, the first game starting at 2 o'clock. "Cannonball" Rile will pitch one of the games for Columbus, while Donaldson and Rogan are the choices of the Monarchs.

The facts of the causes leading to the present high standing of the leading team of the league are being discussed throughout the baseball world. It is a paramount feature that Rube's team now standing at the top of the league is due to a few outstanding truths which are shining in their path. For instance, the team, like the old White Sox, are asked for their eligibility to the title of "hitless wonders" but, nevertheless, at cannot be denied that their ability to put over the high spots of inside ball is not equalled by any team in the league. A view of the runs are pulled over the home side by their immitable squeeze play. The team in such cases working with clock like precision of both mental and physical efforts. Considering that there is but one truly outstanding star on the team namely, Torrentite, who is acknowledged to be a strong factor in upholding the high mark attained, but after noting all the points possible by which the team could have reached this position there remains but one single fact deserving highest commendation: Rube's baseball sense is responsible for the present position. pared notes with several others who had had the same experience. I know you know that "flat" in Indiana Avenue, where great excitement reigned Saturday night? Well, there was no murder committed. The shots heard by all in the neighborhood were only a few bottles of home brew that went off without warning as they stood in the window near the bedside of the "proprietor" of that flat. Never let home brew work by itself. It is like a woman, it requires attention. I know you know the new rival of the socializing lawyer? Oh, you must know him because you see him almost as much as you see the other. Socializing Lawyer No. 1 will have to watch his step or some of his laurels will be taken away by Socializing Lawyer No. 2. I know you know the lady who has such bewitching curls? Oh, you must know her because you must have speculated too as to whether they are real or "unreel." Well, the question is settled. She left most of them in a taxi cab the other night. Nosey heard her calling the taxi office enquiring about them. You know reel curls cost real money. I know you must know about that beautiful triangle in society's big life? Oh, you must have heard about it. Well, two parts of that triangle will soon separate. Gossips Row says that the lady will be the loser as both legs of the triangle are married. The lady says, "Oh how beautiful it was while it lasted." If You See It In The Whip, It Is True. --- BENNIE BUTLER NAMES MOST VALUABLE ATHLETES By Bennie Butler.) A discussion is afoot as to which of the many Colored athletes has been of the most service to the Race in helping to establish a place for us in public opinion. Who, of the many champions produced by the Afro-Americans, has been looked upon as a real representative of the darker members of this, our glorious country? "That is the question. Almost every one of the numerous standard bearers has his followers who contend for their champion. But facts are what really count, and not partisanism. Jack Johnson, the great pugilist who defeated such notable men as Tommy Burns, Jim Jeffries, Jack O'Brien and Stanley Ketchel, and was the recog- nized world's heavyweight champions, heads the list. Then follow other champions, Joe Cans, George Dixon, Fred Pollard and Sol Butler, with here and there a ball player mentioned. The professional athlete leads the list and seems to have the call with the populace. But has the professional athlete a just claim to the honors? For years, boxing (prize fights) has been under a ban, a despised and discredited pastime. And much of the odium cast on the many art has been because of the Negro's phenomenal success in the squared circle. No list of prize fighters would be representative of the game's best that did not list two-thirds of the men named as Negroes. The nation's best were wont to say prize fighters were on a level with dog fights, or even lower. And as for horse racing, in the days of slavery every Southern gentleman had his Negro jockeys and stable attendants. So, on the whole, the professional Negro athlete has meant little to the Race. People were ready, and with some resemblance of truth, to discredit a fighter's achievements, if he happened to be Black. One of the leading newspapers of America, the New York American (New York City), pictured Jim Jeffries and Jack Johnson as a gorilla, a tiger and a snake in the order named. The editorial following was to the No Matter What You Want To Know CALL "THE WHIP" Victory 4606 And Ask For Information Desk Any Information Cheerfully Given.

But this was because the white man had developed his brain instead of bestial strength. In other words, the white man was at the top, the Negro next, and the others in the order named. But when athletes like J. P. Taylor of Pennsylvania, Clarence Matthews of Harvard, Fred Pollard of Brown, Binga Dismond of an Illinois institution, and Sol Butler of Dubuque, together with scores of others, and more coming every day, the white American was forced to recognize us as a prominent factor in the nation's progress. Now, the three athletes believe have been of the greater benefit to us are John P. Tayler, the old Pennsylvania quarter miler inter-collegiate champion; Howard P. Drew, the national 100 and 220 yard dash champion of recent years, and Sol Butler, the recognized world's broad jump champion of 1919-20. Few of the present day followers of athletics know much about Taylor. But the great Pennsylvania athlete established a place in the heart of the Pennsylvania faculty that did much to lift the ban on Negro students at the famous old school. And John P.'s gentlemanly conduct on and off the field while a member of the American Olympic team of 1908 at London, England, placed us on a higher plane in the European's eyesight. Howard P. Drew, known in the East as "The Springfield Flier," was a favorite among the elite of the big white universities. Drew was one of the most likeable chaps that ever walked, and for that reason one of the most popular of the Colored athletes. The last time I met the great little runner was in Paris. He was in charge of the athletes (all white) who were in training for a series of athletic events prior to the big inter-allied games. Drew has done a great deal to eliminate the prejudice against us. Sel Butler, one of the greatest all-around athletes, expired and startled the athletic field, leading a field that the white athletes thought to No. 1 grow would even qualify in the, running broad jump. His athletic record, gentlemanly deportment and genial disposition has done much to raise us in the world's estimation. Sol's athletic life is too well known by the public and his decoration by the King of Montenegro meant a world of prestige to us.

The fireworks of the nineteen twenty-one season commenced at Lincoln University on Wednesday, September 14. Coach Shellburne issued the call for all candidates to report at the University in that day for preliminary practice. The preliminary fundamentals will occupy the whole of the first week's practice, with a view to looking over some material which gave promise last year and of getting a line on the new men who are entering for the first time. Shellburne has the entire Alumni and student body of Lincoln University and him in the drive to return things to ball to "Normalay." Dr. W, G. Alexander, the graduate manager, and A. D. Williams the student manager are bending every effort to do all that can possibly be done to insure the success toward which all are aiming. All football candidates will report to Coach Shellarine and Capt. Laws in the gymnasium at Lincoln at 2 P.M., September 14, ready for a strenuous season of work. Practice will be held both morning and afternoon till college opens. Most of the men who made their letter last year are returning to school this year, and 'there are indications that many of the new men who are expected will displace some of the "Varsity" men of past years. Runner is it that 'San' Parr, who is eligible to one more year is returning to complete some work. This will gladden the hearts of all Lincolnites who saw last Thanksgivings. Catastrophe! And remember that Parr was the one redeeming feature of the Lincoln squad. A. G. McCain, Linecoln's football captain, paid The Whin office a visit, tarrying long enough at the desk of the sporting editor to tell him that Lincoln intends to make things hum this season and that our great eastern team had better watch them, going and coming. 7 E t nt i. of T Is e. --- EDITORIAL PAGE --- JOS.

WITH DUE REGARD FOR RIGHT, WITH PURITY, OF MOTIVE IN OUR EXPRESSION, WITH CONSCIENTIOUS COMPASSION FOR STRICKEN HUMANITY, WITH UNSTINTED CREDIT TO THOSE WHO MERIT, WITH TRUTH AS OUR GUIDE POST AND LOVE AS OUR INSPIRATION, WE HAVE COMMITTED OURSELVES TO THE WORLD OF JOURNALISM. WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. Dress Up Clothes do not tell the intrinsic value of the wearer and they may not show the beauty of the soul, but they certainly go a long way toward impressing the general public. It is the duty of the American black man to demand from the world the recognition, respect and deference which is accorded other people. This recognition, respect and deference cannot be rendered in good faith and honor to a bedraggled, shabby and slovenly race. The dress of the black man must reflect his refinement, culture and general inclinations. The white people have had a splendid opportunity to observe the black man in a "closeup" during the last summer. Black people from all over the United States have assembled themselves in great northern cities conducting conclaves and conventions. These conclaves and conventions have been attended by the "leaders and representatives" of the whole race. These "leaders and representatives" have been curiously eyed and scrutinized by the dominant white man and in truth during the summer of 1921 the black man has been standing on dress parade. Impressions have been gathered from his general appearance and many conclusions have been formed. What these impressions were and what the conclusions have been we ourselves can easily determine. Leaders with long, green, shiny coats have been seen treading merrily down Fifth Ave. and Michigan Boulevard and their celluloid collars turning yellow with age have drawn sarcastic smiles from their white brothers, while their feet, encased in shambling shoes of huge proportions, have been the provocation of derisive grins and much sardonic laughter. The delegates, who came from distant points south and west, have brought back to memory the relics of slavery and the slouching black hats of felt and the decrepit "out of season" straws as well as the uncouth guffaws have fed more fuel to the raging flames of American prejudice and have given our enemies firm convictions in relegating us into conditions of segregation and discriminations. We talk about "our rights" and at the same time clothe ourselves in the garb of slaves and servants. The Chicago Daily News gives a beautiful cross section of a recent convention in this wise: "Grizzled old veterans of slavery days, with long shiny coats and with wide expansive grins * * * and genial old mannies sit side by side with energetic, snurce young citizens of northern cities." None can refute the story told in the word picture of the Daily News. If the grizzled old veterans represent the best thought of fifty-five years of freedom and liberty, if they represent the millions of black folk in the United States of America, if they characterize and typify the race which now seeks political and economic recognition, they fail sadly and their failure is without excuse. Poverty cannot be pleaded for the careless and unconventional attire of these "leaders" and delegates to great conventions during the summer of 1921. They were supported by organizations which were fully prepared to attire them in apparel suitable with time, place and occasion. It is just another case and example of race carelessness and thoughtlessness. The black people seem to be prone to forget that they are under the constant surveillance of their enemies who readily and zealously pick out the many points of shortcoming. In the avenues of American life it is well established fact that the actions of the black man must be far above reproach and strictly in keeping with the modern trend of society. The Japanese people mingle in diplomatic and social circles at perfect ease and decorum. They always appear scrupulously neat and in keeping with the occasion. Nothing about their appearance can invoke sarcastic criticism and the Japanese people have forced the world to respect them because they were always "up to the minute" in every respect. In this hour, when the light of hope shines but sparsely, every effort of the black man should be used to remove his race from the political and economic rut which deprives him from recognition and respect. Dress and personal appearance play important parts in the great melee and carelessness cannot be tolerated or excused. Too Late Now The black people in America are all in an uproar because of the recent actions of the Republican party. President Harding is catering to southern sentiment and seems unwilling to give the black constituency the slightest consideration. He has failed to make a substantial appointment of a single black to political office and has favored the most rabid race-haters with soft jobs. The newspapers published in the interest of the black people are now sending out the distress signal and it appears that they have just rubbed their sleepy eyes, yawned and awakened to the true situation. It is too late now. Before Harding was nominated and even before he was in the race the Chicago Whip sounded a note of alarm and, delving into the problem, correctly analyzed and predicted what his course of procedure would be. In issue of March 12, 1920, just after Harding had taken his seat, the Whip produced its famous editorial entitled "Beware of the Ides of March." If the advice given in that attempt had been heeded the black people would not now be at the end of their political wits, but it is too late now. TORIAL HEALTH HINTS HEALTH HINTS By Dr. Troy Smith There was one thing the men in service in the recent war learned and that was the kind of shoe to wear. In taking a man into service there was one point that made a foot normal and that was a foot on which a man can march and fight. In order to do this there must be unrestricted motion of the joints of the foot and the line of weight-bearing must pass through the fore-foot. Had the women been induced into service there would be a great reform in the foot-wear of women. The ordinary shoe that a built for women at present time does not come up to the above conditions. The shoe of the average woman is too small, white its shape is grotesque and absurd. Its size its shape and the heel intercourse to such an extent with the mechanics of support and with the circulation as to make it both a direct and indirect cause of local injury and of remote disturbance of the general health. A shoe should not be built for beauty, but for comfort, and in order to do this it should be adapted to the shape of the foot so that it can properly fulfill its function as a means of support to the body. A shoe that is too tight will not only disfigure the shape of the foot and impair the mobility by producing pressure on the joints, but this same pressure will cause wasting of the muscles. A shoe that is either too loose or too tight will produce corns and bunions. In order to prevent these troublesome and oftentimes painful maladies have your shoe adapted to your foot. Too much emphasis cannot be laid on the dangers of constantly wearing loose house slippers or shoes. Such shoes give no support to the ligaments and muscles weakened by disease and non-use. Since the soldiers in service had very little foot trouble considering the amount of marching they did, it might be well for women and men not in service to know something about the army shoe. The shoe question for the soldier has been solved by the Munson shoe. This shoe possesses all the qualities desired for the average adult. The inner line is nearly straight. The heel is broad. The shank is stiff. The toe is wide. It gives the necessary support to the foot and at the same time allows development. Support for the adult foot, particularly in the early stages of military training, is very desirable. This support is required on account of atrophy of the foot muscles which has resulted from the prolonged wearing of the short and narrow shoes in civilian life. The shoes must be properly fitted and at least a half-inch space must be allowed in front of the great toe. The degree of foot development that has resulted among soldiers from the use of properly fitted Munson shoes has proven revelation to the medical officer. Women as well as men should remember a proper fitting shoe is necessary for the support of the body, for correct carriage, and for the maintenance of the integrity of the arch of the foot. Beware The Ides of March (Reprint from Chicago Whip, Issue of March 12, 1921) NOTE—This editorial appeared in the Chicago Whip shortly after President Harding was inaugurated. In the light of President Harding's present attitude and the apparent inclination on the part of the Republican party to throw the black man out of its ranks, this editorial was a remarkable forecast. Just as the strange admonition rang dramatically into Caucasus' soe, so it ring into ours—Harding's May of March! Just as many and even more reasons for heeding it exist. The month of March brings into the affairs of all American new methods, new policies and new administrative officers. New problems and new hopes confront this new regime. Beware of false prophets, beware of political Judaism, beware of an It is not conducive to clear thinking and intelligent action to pin our birth absolutely in the new President. The beautiful ideal of Americanism is one thing and in its practical performance of the political policy of the American, the unattended male are certainly a general conception of what our government SHOULD be. May be these golden principles are the essence of what our government is GOING to be. Yet, what our government IS NOW, should be the consideration from which to build expectations and the muster need to remove the mountains of lynchings, disfranchisements and embarrassing economic privation. The new President is not going to change our form of government. He is not going to adopt measures drastically or diametrically different from those of his Republican predecessors. The high finance "supporters of this party put Mr. Harding on office. We might add a parenting tool to the public's life. Mr. Harding has never been a reformer or a revolutionist. He is a machine man of politics. He Harding has never been a reformer or a revolutionist. The government will look the same, feel the same, and probably act the same as far as his tenure of office concerns it. For all beneficial purposes to us, he will more than one point to say: "We have a great support for the people." Mr. Harding for at least four years, but let us place no faith in any single individual. It is our task—a task for a race of MEN to put ourselves on an equal footing with other people. He not deceived by the Ides of March. Not many moons ago, America was highly Acquired by the terribuloid indictment that the world was the first white and the first human. A great deal him a Negro, unimprovisable in the favors of black people of even former dispensation of justice to them will cause the old breath of scandal to be shown all over the land of the free and the home of the brave. An astute politician will dodge this inconvenience. They say our President is a good politician. "Lilly-white Republicanism" is to play an important part in silencing the black man's voice in political questions is manifested by the appointment of a leader of the Lilly whites from Virginia to an important committee. If the Republican Party now going into control of affairs is already proclaiming itself a white man's party the witch will do well to shriek into the car of all black Americans her ancient admonition of "Beware of the Ides of During this period of unemployment, the eyes of starving America are raised with all hope to the new President, just as bleeding, brutal Belgium raised hers to Woolrow Wilson. But let us not be deceived. For fifteen millions of white Europeans are waiting to come over and get such jobs as we have to. We were the last to be employed and the first to be discharged. We were the last to be deported and the first to be discharged. The Republican Party, which controls exportation and importation, and not with the black people. Our economic expectations should be tempered with common sense. Beware of the Ideas of March: As is the new administration begins to unfold its policies, the "cables" will fall from our eyes" whoip their elopement with running fire in the campaign speeches for the Grand Old Party, now are to be seen in Washington begging, pleading, crying for jobs for themselves. We should calmly reflect on these leaders who have exploited our votes for their own personal unworthy gain. We should realize that unless something is done for the whole race that we are to see at this time we should be preparing to end this political exploitation. We should close our ears and our political ranks from all such evils and influences. Let us expect nothing and receive no disappointments. Let us face the issues intelligently and forget all about Abraham Lincoln's party, and plan to support only those who give real performances and are willing to accept them. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. Dr. J. R. Crossland of St. Joseph, Mo., has been appointed to handle the claims of the black veterans of the late World War. The claims of the black soldiers are the same as those of the white and Dr. Crossland has really accepted a Jim Crow job. Perry Howard, another prominent "Uncle Tom" politician, also accepted a Jim Crow job. As long as we take these political handouts, as long as our "leaders" are too hungry to refuse them, of course they will be tendered our race. A pastor of a large Chicago Baptist Church balked at eating at the same table with some of the white brethren. He fidgeted nervously and stated that he had a previous engagement with his wife. This same minister recently offered his services as a valet to a white brother who helped his church. This kind of a man is the type of a leader who claims to represent 3,000 members. In order to escape the unsavory treatment of the Lily White Republican party of Kentucky and Virginia, the black politicians have been compelled to withdraw from the Grand Old Party and form an organization of their own. As a matter of fact they were driven out. This method of procedure unhappily comes ten years too late to result in any tangible good and they will be back in the fold as soon as a few jobs are hung teasingly over their heads. What has become of the promises of President Harding to the black people? What has become of the wonderful orators who swore by him? Where is Woodrow Wilson and the Democratic party?
