Blame Black Employees For Postoffice Inefficiency RUBE FOSTER JAILED FOR FRAUD Three Attempt Death As Suicide Wave Sweeps City PRICE 5 CENTS VOL. III. — NO. 46 RUBE I Three Atten SUICIDE WAVE CONTINUES AS 3 TRY DEATH Wave Of Discouragement Seen In Epidemic Of Self Destruction The wave of suicides which has swept the South Side during the last few weeks continued this week, as three girls made unsuccessful attempts to end their lives. They were Mrs. Margarette Johnson, 25 living at the Idlewild Hotel, 50 E., and St.; Miss Mary Jones, 24, 404 E., 31st St., and Mrs. Emma Reed, 26, 3058 Vernon Ave. Desperate from lack of funnels, out of work, and with debts banging over her head, Mrs. Johnson attempted to end her life by drinking iodine November 6. Dr. C. A. Thompson, house physician at the Idlewild Hotel, was rushed to her aid, and her life was saved. She was removed to the County Hospital. Miss Jones is said to have become despondent from domestic and financial difficulties and tried suicide by drinking ammonia at her home November 7. She was rushed to the Provident Hospital, where her life was saved. Mrs. Reed attempted to kill herself by placing a gas tube in her mouth and turning on the jet after domestic difficulties in her husband. In the last two weeks there has been a suicide each week. Reuben James hurled himself to death beneath the wheels of the Jackson Park elevated October 26. Miss Lucille Barnes, 3720 Wabash Ave., ended her life Sunday October 23 by inhaling gas from an open stet. Prescribes Pins To Cure Love's Ills The circulation through the mails of recipes for love potions and secret love talismans led to the indictment here by. Federal grand jury Friday of Mrs. Lucille S. Jackson, charged with using the mails to defraud. Mrs. Jackson, who is a newcomer in Chicago, has already been indicted on the same charge in Memphis. She is alleged to have given the following recipe for gaining a man's heart, to Pauline Bogus of Memphis, and others: "Take a small bottle and put in it a dozen pins, heads downward, and fill the bottle with rainwater. Cork this and sew it into the mattress of the bed of the man to be wooed." If it did not work the first year, sue advised repeating the process, continuing until he proposed. She was indicted by a federa. Grand Jury in Memphis last January, on a charge of fraudulent use of the mails in the disposal of "love potions and recipes." Federal officials were unable to locate her there after the indictment was returned, but were advised several days ago of her presence in Chicago. SETS HOUSE AFIRE WHEN WIFE REFUSESTOGO HOME BALTIMORE, Nov. 12—Monroe Spencer, 22, of this city, is being held by the police for burning the home of Walter Mayth, 580 Baker Street. Spencer, who was separated from his wife, who was living at Mayth's home, spent half the night trying to persuade his wife to come back home. When all other forms of persuasion failed, he saturated the kitchen and dining room with oil, and set the place afire, hoping apparently, to burn her out. Geo. W. Holt THOUSANDS JAM STREETSATGEO. HOLT'SFUNERAL George W. Holt, one of the wealthiest and best known figures in South Side business and sporting circles, died at his home, 4405 Prairie Ave., early Friday morning. He was sixty years of age, Mr. Holt's health was said to have been failing for several years, but his illness took a serious turn only a few days before his death, which came as a complete surprise to many. In his later years he became an outstanding figure on the South Side by his connection with the Liberty Life Insurance Co., a $300,000 corporation of which he was treasurer and majority stockholder. In pre-prohibition days he was best known by his saloon at 3504 State St., which was known throughout the country as a meeting place for railroad men. There is scarcely a man who has "railroaded" in and out of Chicago who is unfamiliar with "George Holt's Place." He was also very prominent in club and fraternal affairs, being a conspicuous member of the Appomatto Club and several secret societies. After lying in state at the 8th Regiment Armory throughout Sunday funeral services were held Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The armory was filled to capacity, and automobiles lined both sides of Forest Ave., and 35th St., in both directions. Mr. Holt was born at Macon, Ga., December 25, 1861. He is survived by two sisters, three brothers, and a wife Mrs. Nora Douglas Holt. NATIVE AFRICAN FORGER FINDS GERMAN BANKERS AN EASY MARK HANOVER, Germany, Nov. 12—(delayed) William F. Von Monume, a native African, has been arrested here for forging checks. Before he was arrested, he succeeded in fleeing German bankers out of thousands of marks. He represented himself as a financial agent of the Liberian Republic. WELL-KNOWN STUDENT OF FOLK LORE FATALLY INJURED IN PARIS HAMPTON, VA., Nov. 12—Natalie Curtis Burlin, well-known student of musical lore, song-poetry, and decorative art of the North American Indians, and of folk-lore and music of Africans and American Negroes, was recently injured fatally while in Paris CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12th, 1921 LINC AND PERRY CHARGE POST OPPOSED TO VA. OFFICE WASTE INDEPENDENTS OF $700,000 WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 12. When Joseph R. Pollard, of Richmond, Va., called a national conference to meet in this city for the purpose of discussing the present attitude of the Republican party toward the Black Man, Henry Lincoln Johnson and Perry Howard were thrown into consternation, as is evidenced by a letter from Howard and Johnson to Mr Pollard. Johnson and Howard are apparently desperately attempting to keep themselves solid with the administration by preventing a rift in the ranks at any cost. The letter speaks for itself and is addressed from the Headquarters for Legislative Relief founded by Howard and Johnson, which has been humorously referred to as the "Beggar's Bureau." The letter, which was very lengthy, is as follows: HEADQUARTERS FOR RACIAL LEGISLATIVE RELIEF LEGISLATIVE RELIEF 1216 PENNSYLVANIA AVE., N. W. WASHINGTON, D. C. October 21, 1921. Hon. Joseph R. Pollard, Attorney-at-law, Richmond, Virginia. Our Esteemed Friend: We fully realize the struggles and trials thru which you and other loyal Republicans of Virginia have passed and are passing because of your exclusion from the ranks of the alleged old line Republican party, who are dubbed "lily-whitees." We realize the spirit that imbued you in trying to keep the jewel of justice upon the altar of freedom in consonance with the spirit of the founders of the Republican party. We fully realize that in your effort to get group action, you are actuated, if not impelled, by the highest motive; and that as an outcome of this effort to get national group action, you called a meeting, which we are advised, has for its purpose the organization of a national party, the composite of which shall be of our racial group. We confess to you that this movement has occasioned us serious thought and many sleepless hours. As a result of this serious thought and meditation, we have reached the conclusion that if this be the purpose of the meeting, which you propose to convoke, it is unintentionally a mistake. The letter then proceeds to rechash all the old, stock arguments as to why the colored people must or should hang on to the G. O. P. elephant's tail (while the white Republicans ride)—mentions Hoke Smith, Vardaman et al. (but for some reason fails to mention such Democrats as Ben Butler and Grover Cleveland)—rings in the Ku Klux (although the Republicans are in complete control of the National Government in all of its branches)—goes all the way back to "Aeneas," carries us "between Scylla and Charybdis," "thus (quoting the letter) leaving us in mid-ocean (sic) to be chilled by the icy waters," etc.—and winds up tearfully in these appealing words: If it would not be asking too much, may we not most cordially invite you to our headquarters at 1216 Pennsylvania Avenue at your convenience, and any other friends you may desire to invite, for a full, free and serious discussion of this question? The letter is signed by Johnson and Howard. ERIE POLICE BAR KLUX ERIE, Pa., Nov. 12.—Arthur L. Cotton, white, 28 years old, claiming Pittsburgh as his home, was arrested after what the police allege to have been a meeting of prospective members of a new lodge of the Ku Klux Klan. Cotton was released in the custody of his attorney by District Attorney Blass and a hearing will be given by Chief of Police Detzel today. None of the alleged prospective members of the new lodge were arrested. The police claim Cotton admitted that he was a klan organizer. A report of the hearings before the Joint Commission on Postal services has just been made public. These hearings were conducted in Washington October 4 and 5. The report for Chicago was made by W. B. Richards & Co., efficiency experts. In the report it was declared that 900 white men could do the work done by 1400 colored men at present. It was also declared that the presence of colored men at the postoffice gave rise to a situation where only inferior white men would accept work there. Excerpts from the report submitted by the Richards Co., are herewith presented: Hearings Before The Joint Commission On Postal Service At Washington, D. C. October 4 and 5, 1921, Page 300. Report on Chicago, Ill., by W. B. Richards & Co. Part 3. Mr. Howard, I would also like to say something, there are fourteen hundred Negroes working in the Chicago Post Office, in round figures. It is our judgement that the average white force working there—900 of those men would accomplish the work that those 1400 Negroes do. Now, the administration of that Chicago Post Office is not making those Negroes turn out the work that the white men do turn out, and they could save 500 employees in that post office if they applied the standards of efficiency in the everyday work to those Negroes that they require of the whites. That has a very demoralizing effect on the white employees, not to mention the contact feature of it which of course, cannot be helped, and that is a thing which I think deserves very considerable administrative attention in that post office if they ever want to get the postal SERVICE up right. The Chairman. Does the administrative work in that office require—does it insist upon requiring the same efficiency from the Negroes as from the whites, or do you take it for granted they can not do that and they are therefore not held to the same level? Mr. Scheel. We have felt this way about that: We have found they did not measure up, but we have thought it best to keep the men who have had some experience rather than to take another man in from the street who perhaps would not be any better. The Chairman. I am not suggesting that they be discharged. I am simply wondering if the same requirements are made of the Colored force as are made of the white men. Mr. Scheel. Yes. We are beginning to do that now—to exact of them just exactly what we do of the others—and when they do not measure up we make a recommendation to cover their case. Working Conditions. The situation in respect to the growing numbers of Colored employees in the Chicago Postal service is a very serious one. When it comes to the practical handling of mail the Colored employees are inferior to the whites. This refers, of course, to the general average. When the importance of the Postal service to the whole business and social life of the nation is considered this subject becomes worthy of discussion. Many of the best white employees will not work at such close quarters with the Negroes. Consequently, the influx of Negroes also results in lowering the standard of the white employees due to the fact that those are usually of lower caliber than those who get out. From our observation, which is confirmed by the supervisory officials and station superintendents, the work of the 1400 Colored employees of the Chicago Post Office could be done by 900 average white employees. This makes possible a LAUGHS AT ACCUSERS 1 Leases His Backyard As Oil Field PETERSBURG, Va., Nov. 12.—Freeman Edwards, of Grace Street, this city, has leased his back yard to an oil company for development as an old field. Edwards is one of the lucky ones in this city who woke up a few mornings ago to find oil on his property. He immediately became rich, and soon expects to be on easy street. Oil has been found on several other properties, but most are holding out for higher bids. ARMY MAN GETS 15 YEARS FOR KILLING WIFE WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 12.—Corporal Edward Godfrey Evans, U. S. A., was sentenced to fifteen years in the penitentiary upon his plea of guilty when charged with manslaughter in connection with the killing of his wife. Corporal Evans, who is 47 years of age, killed his wife, Mrs. Margery Evans, at their home, 925 S St., N. W., last summer. Evans was stationed at Ft. Myer, Va., and is a former butler for Gen. Peyton C. March, and Gen. Hugh L. Scott. MINISTER TO LIBERIA CONFIRMED WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. — The Senate last Thursday confirmed President Harding's appointment of the Rev. Solomon Porter Hood, of Trenton, N. J., as Minister to Liberia. saving of (500×1400) $700,000 per year. The enforcement of efficiency standards on the daily work will automatically eliminate the bulk of these 1400 Negroes, and will effect a saving of $700,000 per year. Read, Think and Act OR FF keeps City ACCUSERS FRAUD Chicagoans are surprised to learn that 'Rube' Foster, their idol of the diamond, and world-famous base ball magnate, was unceremoniously yanked from a berth in his palatial special train and thrown into jail in Atlanta, Ga., on charges of cheating and swindling. He was quickly released on bond, made by one of his friends, B. J. Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent. learn that ster, their diamond, ld-famous Atlanta Man Has Chicago Magnate Taken From Special Train And Arrested. "Rube" says the charges are unfounded, and spring from personal feelings. After his release from the clutches of the law, "Rube" and his cohorts resumed their journey to Cuba. Fisk Loses $40,000 By Flaw In Will YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, Nov. 12.—The fact that a will bequeatheing $40,000 to Fisk University was not witnessed, made it invalid under the laws of Canada, where it was executed. The money which would have gone to Fisk, therefore, goes to C. P. Vitrus, white, whose father left the estate. Vitrus, who is a former Canadian soldier, was working in parks here as one of the city's unemployed when he received notification that he had fallen heir to the fortune. The notification also stated that a will leaving the estate to Fisk University had been found, but that on account of the flaw, it would be given to Vitrus. MODERN ROBIN HOOD AT LARGE WITH GUN AND CROWBAR SPOTSYLVANIA, Va., Nov. 12.—Police authorities of this city are on the lookout for a modern Robin Hood, who has been robbing homes of wealthy whites, armed with a gun and a crowbar. According to the victims of the robberies, the thief would approach the house, drive the occupants away with his gun, then taking his crowbar would break open chests and vaults, to get at the valuables therein. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 12. William Henderson, a coal peddler, was fined $100 or ninety days in jail when he was led into court on charges of carrying "concealed artillery." The gun was a .45 calibre army automatic. Said the judge as he pronounced sentence: "That's the biggest gun I ever saw in this court." --- EIGHT PAGES He has so far eluded capture. HAD POCKET CANNON PRICE FIVE CENTS CLAIM RUBE BILKED HIS BALL PLAYERS ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 12.—Andrew "Rube" Foster, owner and manager of the American Giants, of Chicago, and president and moving spirit of the National Negro Baseball League, was taken from his private train here last Thursday afternoon and arrested on charges of cheating and swindling. Atlanta policemen boarded Foster's special train as it entered the station at 4:40 o'clock Thursday afternoon. The train consisted of a locomotive, tender, baggage car, dinner and three Pullmans. Rube was on his way to New Orleans to play for the championship of the South. Taken to Police Station The popular Chicago baseball magnate was hauled from his palatial special Pullman train and taken to the police station, where he was held under $500 bond. Bond was quickly furnished by Ben J. Davis, well-known Odd Fellow, and editor of the Atlanta Independent. Left Ball Players Stranded The arrest was made at the instance of Atty, Roy C. Drennan, white, who was acting for Ben Harris, a former member of Rube's ball team. Harris alleges that in the formation of the National Negro Baseball League last summer Foster recruited a number of players in Atlanta. The players were promised $125.00 monthly, expenses, and a percentage of receipts, it is said. When the league ended in Chicago several weeks ago, it is said, Foster abandoned the league, and left the players stranded, according to Harris' allegations. He also says the players were not paid their salaries nor share of receipts. After arranging the bond, Rube boarded his train again, and left the city just as President Harding's special was pulling into the station. Foster's destination is Cuba. He is taking two complete teams. After the New Orleans series, a complete schedule will be played in and around Havana. Foster emphatically denied all of the charges. HANDY IS VICTIM OF EYE STRAIN NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 12—W. C. Handy, secretary-treasurer of the Handy Bros, Music Company, "The Home of the Blues" is in the hands of eye specialists. He suffered a partial loss of sight, due to over strain caused by excessive night work under poor lighting conditions. Ignoring professional service concerning his condition last summer, he continued work with the Southern tour of the band; and undertook to bring out three new compositions, with all of the detail arrangements therefor. The specialists feel that with complete surrender to the prescribed treatment, he may be able to resume his duties in about six weeks. FIDELITY BOND COMPANY STATES ITS POLICY Another ray of hope was shed upon the complex real problem when the Fidelity Mortgage and Bond Company, located at 118 North La Salle St. in an interview with the Chicago WHIP, declared that they were perfectly willing and desirous of making mortgage loans to colored people. They said they were not concerned with the color or creed of their patrons, but were only interested in the security. This company is giving a free series of lectures to the public every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings and problems of investment and real estate difficulties will be taken up. The public is invited to attend, at 9 o'clock. WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. — According to Prof. Herbert J. Seligman, now writing for the Washington Tribune, it is the race question, and not disarmament, which is the chief issue at the arms conference about to be held in Washington. According to the writer, European society maintained itself at the expense of the colored peoples of the world. He says further: What is the especial interest of the Washington conference for the colored races of the world? Millions of the colored races of the world have been held in subjection by those very armies and navies, which the white governments finally turned against each other. Every nation taking part in the Washington Conference has committed crimes against weaker colored peoples. Great Britain has held India. She fought China to force the Chinese to buy that terrible drug, opium. Even now there are uprising in India which are being put down in bloody combat. France has imposed her rule on Indo-China. Belgium, Germany, France, Great Britain have killed, robbed, exploited the natives of Africa. Haiti for five years was subjected to the boyonets of United States Marines. This robbery of the weak has been known as imperialism. European governments reached out for territory in which they could obtain raw materials cheap and make the natives buy manufactured products at a high price. The excuse was often that it was necessary to "civilize" the natives or maintain "order." What the men in control of the white governments were after, was proft, money. And the most effective part of the transaction were armies and navies. In reaching out for undeveloped territory, the white governments came into conflict. A number of writers, including Mr. E. D. Morel and Mr. Walter Lippman, in his "The Stakes of Diplomacy" have asserted that it was scrambling over the loot in Africa and other territories that brought about the World War. The greed of white governments found its punishment. The time has come when Western Civilization will have to change its methods in dealing with the colored races. For Africa has been gobbled up. There remains only China and the Far East to be disposed of. Europe has been maintaining its inequitable and out-of-date society at the expense largely of the colored races of the world. They will have to be taken into partnership and the machinery of force discarded by which they have been held in subjection. This is the broad background of interest for the colored peoples of the world, black, yellow and brown, in the Washington Conference. So it will be seen that it is not merely "disarmament" which is to be discussed there. In fact the invitation to the conference did not mention the word "disarmament." ORGANIZE FOR FIGHT AGAINST CANCER WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 12—In connection with "National Cancer Week," which is being observed throughout the United States, the District of Columbia Committee of the American Society for the Control of Cancer was formed last week at the home of Dr. James F. Mitchell. Dr Mitchell was chosen chairman and Dr. H. K. Herr, vice chairman. Dr. E. A. Balloch, dean of the Howard University School of Medicine was appointed by the Association for the Control of Cancer a member of the local committee to endeavor to arouse the interest of the public in the early diagnosis and treatment of this disease. Lectures upon the subject have been delivered before the entire student bodies of the Georgetown University School of Medicine and the Howard University School of Medicine, both located here in Washington, D. C. The entire week, October 20th to November 5th, has been devoted to a discussion of the treatment of cancer. The various cities throughout the country have entered into a campaign to disseminate information. Among the members of the District of Columbia Committee of the American Society for the Control of Cancer are: Brigadier General Charles E. Sawyer; Surgeon General M. W. Ireland, of the army; Surgeon General S. S. Sawyer; Surgeon General E. R. Stitt; of the navy; District Health Officer William C. Fowler; Dean George M. Kober, of Georgetown University School of Medicine; Dean William C. Borden, of George Washington University School of Medicine, and Dean Edward A. Balloch, of Howard University School of Medicine. Asks U.S.About GarveyBoats Looks Up 'Phyllis Wheatley" "No Such Boat," Says U. S. NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 12.—Cyril V. Briggs, head of the African Blood Brotherhood, continued his fight against Marcus Garvey here this week by publishing in his magazine, the Crusader, his disbelief of the existence of any such boat belonging to the Black Star Line as the "Phyllis Wheatley." According to the story, Garvey has solicited passengers for points in the POSTMASTER ASKS AID DURING PERFECT PACKAGE MONTH Postmaster Arthur C. Lueder announced today that the Post Office Department and the express and railway companies have joined in a nationwide effort to stimulate greater interest in the good packing of parcel post express and freight packages. November has been selected as the "perfect package month," during which an active campaign will be conducted to induce all mailers and shippers to give their attention to the manner in which their goods are packed, the kind of containers used and the writing or marking of addresses plainly and completely. This is of great public interest, because in the end the public must pay the bills for lost or damaged shipments. Therefore, the public should be deeply interested in a campaign that will tend to reduce losses and improve the service. Christmas will soon be here and it is especially desirable that care should be exercised in the preparation of packages at this time because now the occasional mailer or shipper will be sending packages. Articles easily cover shipper carefully wrapped in corrugated or shock-absorbing paper. The department stores use this kind of paper in delivering breakable articles. It would be an excellent practice for housewives to save this paper for use when they are sending out their own packages. GREAT WEEK FOR UNDERWRITERS The Underwriters' Mutual Insurance Company, home office 2 East 31st St, the pioneer race insurance enterprise in the North, is still maintaining its supremacy in the matter of production and collections, and is entering into the fall and winter season with the prospect brighter than ever. A very enthusiastic meeting was held last Saturday at its home office among its agents in order to determine the prize winners in a weekly contest which closed, and the following prize winners were determined: Agent S. B. Washington, first in production with 23 applications amounting to $7.40; Agent H. D. Perkins, second with 15 applications for $6; Agent T. J. Smith, third with 14 applications for $5, and Miss Lillie Mae Horne, fourth with 10 applications for $3.40. Among those who were prize winners in collections are Gus Moseley of Evanston with 141 per cent; S. B Washington with 113 per cent; S. Kinnard with 102 per cent; J. H Carey with 101 per cent; Willard Payne with 100 per cent; T. J. Smith with 99 per cent; John Garcia and H D. Perkins, each with 96 per cent, and R. J. Gum with 95 per cent, the average percentage for the week being 97 per cent. Chicago Men and Women Wanted Dispensation Now On The American Woodmen Incorporated 1901.

Snowden, one of the officers of the Real Estate Mortgage and Bond Corporation, spent the first part of the week on the North Shore at Waukegan and Evanson. The residents of the North Shore see the crying need for an organization of this character and the sentiment of the people is to give it their heartiest support. The same situation confronts them that confronts the owners here in the city. In Glencoe, the colored owners have found out what it means not to be able to renew mortgages that come due, and because of that fact several have lost their homes. It is expected that a large number of the people along the North Shore will subscribe to shares in this growing concern. North Shore this grow- t of Rev.

PHILADELPHIA FAIR PUTS MANY INVENTIONS ON EXHIBITION PHILADELPHIA FAIR PUTS MANY INVENTIONS ON EXHIBITION PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 12. The model of a machine for sewing the sole and uppers together, invented by Jan E. Matzeliger, a Negro, who once worked as a cobbler here, and from which a corporation now capitalized at $25,000,000 grew, is being shown at the Commercial Museum. It is among 1,300 devices upon which patent papers have been issued to Negro men and women, the exhibition of which began yesterday at the museum in connection with the autumn fair conducted by Philadelphia Colored persons. A number of the inventions are the work of Granville T. Woods, of New York, a Negro, who has been granted fifty-five patents. Henry E. B, assistant examiner of patents, explained the exhibit A pageant depicting native dances and songs of Africa—the songs written centuries ago, showing a marked similarity to the modern jazz music of American dance halls—took place. F. Grant Gilmore said American ragtime and jazz airs find their motives in African dance music. INTEREST IN MORTGAGE CORPORATION GROWS INTEREST IN MORTGAGE CORPORATION GROWS Mr. Snowden was the guest of Rev Jon L. Evans, Editor Gill of the Evanson, Advertiser A THE CHICAGO WHIP PICKET PROTEST AGAINST 'BIRTH OF NATION'O.K. NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 12.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, has announced that the five pickets, who were arrested and convicted for distributing circulars against the Ku Klux Klan in front of a theatre showing the "Birth of a Nation" film in New York, on May 12, had been freed by Judge Alfred Talley in the Court of General Sessions. The five pickets were Katherine Johnscen, Helen Curtis, Laura Rollock, Edward Frasier and Llewellyn Rollock. The case is of wide significance for Judge Talley in his decision affirms the right of citizens of New York to protest publicly by circular distribution against what they believe to be a movement, as in the case of the Ku Klux Klan, subversive of their rights as citizens. The ordinance under which the pickets had been arrested, said Judge Talley, was designed to prevent the streets being littered with commercial advertising matter. In speaking of the N. A. A. C. P. circular distributed by the pickets, Judge Talley said: "The circular which the defendants were distributing bore the announcement that it was published by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the defendants were acting as agents of that Association. The paper which they distributed was entitled, 'Stop the Ku Klux Propoganda in New York,' and was an appeal to the public not to encourage what, it was claimed, was an effort to glorify through the medium of a moving picture the activities of an organization which, it was asserted, had for its primary purpose the stirring up of prejudices and animosities against certain races and religions in this country. It would be a dangerous and un-American thing to sustain an interpretation of a city ordinance which would prohibit the free distribution by a body of citizens of a pamphlet setting forth their views against what they believed to be a movement subversive of their rights as citizens." The case in the Magistrate's Court was defended by Aiken A. Pope and James C. Thomas, two colored attorneys of New York. Mr. Thomas has since been appointed Assistant United States Attorney. The appeal to the Court of General Sessions was taken in the case was a matter closely held. The victory is a victory for free speech.

A quarrel with her husband was the indirect means of enlightening Mrs. Anna Allen, 25, 3012 State St., that she was suffering from a tumor. Allen and his wife were having an argument Saturday. The argument waxed too hot, and Allen fled away, trying to catch a moving car. Mrs. Allen gave chase, but fell, unable to rise. When she was taken to the County Hospital it was learned that she had a tumor. U. OF C. "PROF" ANALYZES THE "NEW NEGRO" The Negroes, like many other groups, are restless. In some respects they are more fortunate than those who dominate them. They are restless, but they know what they want. This, in substance, was one of the striking statements made by Dr. Park at Lincoln Center, Friday, in a lecture on Negro Race Consciousness. Dr. Park made it plain that he would treat the subject merely as a student of human nature and had no solution to offer. He agreed with Prof. Kerlin that a people producing poetry is no perishing, but has visions for the future. The lecture discussed in detail the Negro folk songs, showing how they constituted a transcript of Negro life, and that those most satisfactorily expressing the racial thought or feeling survived. This poetry delineated the racial dreams and reflected the humble, resigned, other-worldly attitude of the slaves as well as their passionate yearning for freedom. The old Negro style sing these songs, so negro still sing the songs. The Negro largely refuse to sing them, and put aside everything that reminds them of slavery. After slavery was abolished came a period of effort, conscious effort, to achieve citizenship status. This, too, was reflected by poetic attempts, many of them very bad, few convincing, very artificial, lacking in spontaneity. Here the Negroes were acutely conscious of themselves. The first real poet to emerge was Paul Lawrence Dunbar, who, according to Dr. Park, was superficial, not creative, and incapable of the Negroes during the period in which he did his best work. This poetry was that of transition. The last subject discussed was that of the Negro Renaissance. Here there is rebellion, self-assertion, radicalism, even Bolshevism, a preachment not other-worldly but of the present world, a touch of cynicism, and a tendency toward introspection. This tendency itself is a type of consciousness. Here there was a digression and the solidarity between mulattoes and full-blooded Negroes was contrasted with relations in other countries. In European and South American countries the full-blooded are at the bottom, then the mixed bloods; in America alone do the mulattoes identify themselves with the full-blooded Negroes in social class. Dr. Park gave his conclusions that the negro was awake, learning to read and think, and also that he was beginning to form coalition with other darker peoples, as evidenced by the Garvey movement and the Pan-African Congress.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.—Hopes that the Dyer anti-lynching bill would be passed at this session of congress have been dashed to pieces by the reported agreement between Republican House leaders not to call the bill up at this session. The Dyer bill has been favorably reported by the House committee, but opposition from Southern Congressmen is believed to have killed it. The minority report on the bill expressed the belief that the bill is unconstitutional, destructive of the sense of local responsibility, and incapable of adding to the protection of the people. The minority report was submitted by Representative Summers, Democrat, of Texas. The majority report, prepared by Mr. Dyer, Republican, of Missouri, recounted 2.522 lynchings on record, and the disregard of appeals both by Presidents Wilson and Harding to wipe out the stain. On account of Summers' opposition to the bill, it is reported that an agreement has been reached to redraft the bill. ACCIDENT INJURES WOMEN IN T. ARNOLD HILL'S MOTOR CAR ACCIDENT INJURES WOMEN IN T.

At least three times the President MOST POPULAR BOY WINS SAUNDERS' DRUG STORE BICYCLE Teddy Beatty, age 12, who was one of a great number in the popularity contest of the Harvey Sanders Drug Store at 51st and State Streets, has established by hard work the fact that if votes mean anything he is the most popular boy in the district bound by Wentworth Ave. on the west, Indiana Ave. off the east, 47th St. on the north and 55th St. on the south, and now is the possessor of a new bicycle. Teddy Beatty The Harvey Saunders Store at Saunders Store at 39th and Rhodes Ave. is conducting a similar contest to find out the most popular boy in that neighborhood, and the winner will be announced about the first of December. Votes are secured from those persons who purchase at the store. Naturally the boy who knows the most people is likely to win out.

STORES TO CLOSE TWO NIGHTS EACH WEEK STATE ST. STORES TO CLOSE TWO NIGHTS EACH WEEK The South Side merchants, after conferring one with the other, have decided to close their places of business two nights in the week, allowing their clerks and themselves an opportunity to have some time for themselves. Wednesday and Friday night the nights decided upon and all stores with the exception of one have decided to co-operate. After a complete canvass of the neighborhood, there appeared to be only one store who refused to come in and that store was The Leader, 383 South State St. This store is also the one large store which does not employ colored help. The attitude of the proprietor seemed to be that he wanted to get all he could out of the community and give nothing in return. EX-SOLDIER KILLS MAN WITH WAR TROPHY OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. 12.

Alumni of Wilberforce University and Roger Williams College arranged for the entertainment of the football teams of their respective Alma Matters at the Wabash "Y" for Friday and Saturday nights, Between "dates," these busky young "rabs-rabs" were very much at home around the building and expressed themselves as having had the time of their young lives.

OSCAR DE PRIEST LAUNCHES FIGHT IN THIRD WARD At a meeting last Friday night of voters of the Third Ward Oscar De Priest, former Alderman of the Second Ward announced that he was in the fight against William A. Bither, present Ward Committeeman of the Third Ward. De Priest, by the new ward lines is now a resident of the Third Ward and therefore is eligible for election. His announcement that he was not satisfied with the representation that black voters had received at the hands of Bither in consideration of the voting strength of the black people of the ward, was received with enthusiasm by the audience who were expecting De Priest's action. DE PRIEST A FORMIDABLE CONTENDER As De Priest loses little of his former support by the redistricting of the wards and his action is the apparent outgrowth of numerous complaints against Bither and his attitude toward black people and his alleged membership in The Hyde Park and Kenwood Property Owners Association. De Priest was pleasantly surprised to note the number of people who have voluntarily come to him since the meeting pledging their unqualified support in his fight against Bither, knowing that De Priest will and has always been found strong when it comes to the protection of the interests of the race.

When confronted with the "buglear" of "Social Equality" few of even the stunchest a advocates of equal rights for the colored American will admit that the Negro design or that the white man will permit the social intermujices of the ```markdown ``` races on an equal basis. Evasion has usually been the avenue of escape when this phase of the subject has been put. Not until this insidious barrier is swept away will the Black American be more than "Half a Man" nor will be vaunted ideals of American Democracy be more than an empty mockery. "With the changing of the ward lines the ancient battleground of the "Black Belt" has shifted from the Second to the Third wards. Such a galaxy of Leaders as have now invaded those hitherto rather peaceful confines the bewildered Third Warders have never seen before. But from the much abused, long-exploded Second War comes a great high of relief and well thoughtful—for the turn events have taken. If the new voters and the women do some independent thinking—there will be a different story to tell by the time another election shall have passed. Twenty years of unswerving loyalty to principles have been recognized by Ex-Governor Chas. S. Deneen in the appointment to the highest position in ward politics of W. A. Davis, whose labors in the interest of his people and his party in the Second Ward during these many years has been productive of untold good. A Mason of high standing, a church-member of whom Ebenezer is proud, all-around worthy child, an all-women delight to honor and be rewarded. The Second Ward should be congratulated to have such a man as standard—bearer for an organization that stands for civic decency and clean leadership. The women of the first three wards of Chicago have launched an unparalleled effort toward organization, in this community. Already they have set about securing headquarters and the two hundred members now enrolled will be two thousand before the spring election. Classes in Citizenship are now being formed and the women are realizing as never before that to blaze the way to better things not only for themselves but for their children, the ballot as a weapon cannot be ignored. Many rights now denied us will be obtained by the intelligent use of the ballot. Our racial birthright has been sold for an individual mess of pottage times without number by our too often hungry leaders who seek not the welfare of the race but their own personal interests. Many of us we have advanced to political leadership have achieved "a house and a fliver" and in the mad scramble for more have forgotten all about the Race and its wrongs. This must no longer obtain. Men and women we must have, working hand in hand, with but one aim, one goal—the full enjoyment of the common rights and privileges of citizenship. --- It is an old biblical injunction, "Cast thy bread upon the water," etc., and the same is to be shortly verified at the capitol of the nation when Hon. Adelbert H. Roberts, present State Representative from the Third District, will appear on program as one of the principal speakers at a conference of leading statesmen, dealing with some of the most perplexing problems confronting the nation today. To dat. Mr. Roberts is the only gentleman of color scheduled on program. This gives testimonial to the real worth of a constructive legislator who places Race above party or personal grief. At the time of Mr. Roberts' selection it is but fair to presume that the pendulum of memory swung back to days when Prohibition, Search and Seizure, etc., was holding the boards at Springfield. The position of open aggressiveness in one, and to say the least, of dignified silence on the part of Representative Roberts in the other, has long since been a matter of history; but after many days it has returned unto him—and now it is that at this convention of worthy men Mr. Roberts is extended this invitation to take a place in the "seats of the mighty."

Leftel, 30th, 47th, Milwaukee, Wis. By Robt. W. Daggs By G. Burles EUROPE BY Dr. W. A. Blackwell I have been asked whether or not race prejudice shows itself in Europe as it does in America. Well, I answer yes, and no. Europeans have quite a bit more to do with Asiatics, Africans, East and West Indians, than with the Americaine noir (American Negro). If you wish me to say that Europe is as prejudiced against the American Negro, as America is, I should answer no, emphatically. But, on the other hand, if you ask me does Europe have as much prejudice against races of color with whom they come into contact I would say, yes. European peoples are conservators of the Aryan supremacy. Do not mistake me. Whether French, English, Belgian, Italian, Swiss, German or Sean dinavian, the Aryan kingship of the world is the hope and desire of all Europe. Very few American Negroes go to Europe. Those who go are the equal of the white people who go. That is only the best Negroes go, and when they go, they have ample funds to satisfy the most ominivorous seeker after tips. It is hardly news to say that from the time you leave New York harbor until you return to it, the tipping business is an organized bureaucracy. The Europeon wants American dollars. What do they care for other things? Two Incidents At Florence there chanced to be a Southern professor (white) and several made and female teachers—students of antiquities—in the Grande Hotel. These made complaint to the manager against being fed in the dining room with Negroes. Some of our men left and went across the street to another part of the same hotel. I chanced to get up late, and when I went downstairs to breakfast, some of our men were sitting in the lobby, slightly disconcerted, but weak on account of the deprived members. I joined them and we went into the middle of the crowd of whites and, taking a table in the middle of the dining room, were served with the utmost care and politeness. Nobody interfered. The incident passed. Next we found in London that no crowd of Negroes could get into the big hotels on the Strand, such as the Palace, the Cecil and the Savoy, but that two or three could go into any of them and get food and shelter. I rather think it is fear of losing business more than it is prejudice. The French dislike the Germans and Enemies (whites) and the American (whites) and German, but they all class the American Negroes as white men of dark color. Why not?

O NOSEY HAS heard all of the little society flappers making a great fuss over the "millionaire" who had just arrived and indulged in the petty squabbles that seem to be their very existence over this wonderful man. They sought him out, one vieing with the other for recognition and "appointments." Nosey smiled as he observed the furore that the man had created. Then the smash came. They could not locate the gentleman at his "hotel." His big car was not in evidence. His splendid "personality" no longer radiated charm. Some of the sweet girls are still looking for him. For their information he has moved his hotel to the County Hotel, known by many as The Bridewell. It seems as though he had tried the old confidence game stuff. It's allright if you don't get caught. ONLY THE "highbrows" were admitted to that midnight party that ended in one of the prettiest rows that ever was staged in a small apartment. Nosey was passing this beautiful residence and heard the first bottle come through the window. He located the window and then the apartment. As it was 3 o'clock in the morning and things seemed lively in the apartment. Nosey commanded the aid of a passing "drunk" and pinned a big star on the outside of his coat, convincing him that he was the law. When Nosey knocked on the door the noise ceased. When asked who was there, Nosey replied, "The law." It became more quiet. Nosey left the drunk in front of the door and retired to the shadows of the hallway. When the door opened all was in order and the door closed quickly when the man saw the star read "Gas Inspector." Then the noise began again which shows that the "highbrows" like their little fight, behind closed doors, without the interference of "the gas inspectors." SAVAGES ARE not the only ones who have weird dances. Nosey is in on one of the Hallowe'en parties and watched a dance that looked more like a savage war dance than any of the sideshows of the circuses. Savages usually dance alone, but these savages got together and dynamite would not have gotten them apart. It was not the "shimmy" or the "toddle", but just a "few friends". Nosey accepted some of the liquid refreshment and then he knew how they felt and, for fear that he, too, would be seized with the same desire, fled the place. I had career of that champion back-biter," who seems to let no one out. He has barely escaped many times, but seems to be known by all of the married folks as one of the "most charming men in the world." Complaints are beginning to come from the poor husbands on all sides, but this Raffles is so slick that nothing can be caught on him. Nosey heard one husband who had his suspicions but no evidence say that if the gentleman's neck was long enough he would bite himself in the back. Nosey smiled, because he knew that sooner or later (maybe sooner), this back-biter would let his foot slip, and then the deluge. He will then sing, "They are all after me," and he will "Be all by himself, alone." YOUTH WILL he served, was a maxim that stood the test last Saturday night when a youth was seen running down the street with a middle-aged man in his wake, armed with a stick and a bludgeon. Nosey followed the runners up dark streets and in and out of alleys, and noticed that the youth was gradually pulling away from the older man. When the older gent was finally eliminated, Nosey came up with the young man and asked him what it was all about. He merely said, "Old age ought not try to interfere with the activities of youth, because youth must be served." Nosey then recognized the young man and recalled that the aged one had recently taken unto himself a young wife. Such are the affairs of Anatol. Do You Approve of the "Whip?" THEN SUBSCRIBE!

SUMMER TIME AT: IDLEWILD It seemed like the good old summer time at the Idlewild Hotel, 50 East 336 Street Tuesday of this week when the weather changed from a beautiful fall to a mean, wintry day, snow and rain. Every room in the hotel was warm and the radiators were sizzling, heat spreading to every nook and corner. This was because of the surplus of coal in the basement and the tireless energy of the janitor to keep the hotel warm.

Influenza Miss Cleo Bäker, 17, 2963 State St. was taken to the County Hospital Oct. 7, when it was learned that she was suffering from influenza. A CORRECTION In reporting the case of Fred Young vs. Al Tienerway in last week's issue of THE WHIP, Fred Young's attorney was shown to be Attorney John F. Wilson. It should have been Attorney John S. Hoyle, 3102 South State St. We regret the error but feel sure that in either case Young is well represented.

Additional Clubs Ebernzerer Choir is going strongly under the embarrassing circumstances. Mr. John A. Taylor is really producing the goods. Co-operation from both church officers and the EDITOR OF THE EBERNZEER REMINDER would do lots more. Use the paper to boost your own choir lots more. We remember the incident of few weeks ago—now, why not bury the hatchet and insert the news of your own CHOIR in full. Cut out some of the lesser stuff. Watch the M. C. C. "Tidings". Mrs. Mary Clark Cooper can also do lots to make smooth this matter. Sunday morning the solo by Mrs. Peyton, "Deep River", by the Choir, and the organization. But Mr. Taylor, like Mr. J. A. Lillard of Pilgrim, is handicapped by lack of support from people who could help him. Why NOT change the Editor of that "Reminder?" The Sunday Evening Club missed J. W. J. Sunday evening. He is ill, Mr. Harrison and E. Grundy put over the music strong. The obligato in "Listen to the Lambs" by Miss E. M. Gaines and the solo by Mrs. James were perfect. The real feature of the evening was the piano solo and the soprano solo by Miss Irene Thomas and Miss Irene Taylor of Philadelphia. Released us of Madame Houston (New York) and of Golden City (Chicago) that's nuff, Mrs. Ophelia Hudson, president. Willing Workers furnished this talent. H. A. Watkins presiding, Dr. Cook, being ill, was really missed by all. The People's Movement Club, Oscar DePriest, president, and Morris Lewis, secretary, with Attorney Scott, chairman of program, presented one of the best programs of the day, at Unity Hall. Mrs. Jean Cummerford addressed the hundreds of women and men present upon live topics of the day. Local political questions thoroughly exposed and the Women's City Club condemned for its unfairness. The trio by Mines. Coleman, Oldham and Nelson was standard. It James Folkman, again. Thompson violin, again. went over strong. Again with Miss Charlotte Terralon in soprano, these three applied the muse to music.

ALL GOOD DEALERS CARRY THE "Black Swan Records" WESTERN REPRESENTATIVES PACE PHONOGRAPH CO. 3420 SOUTH STATE ST. CHICAGO, ILL. By Mildred Bryant Jones Good taste in music is as much a matter of training and cultural development as good taste along any other line, and in the majority of cases, it is found to be far more necessary than in many other departments of our everyday life. This is true because of the fact that the effect of music is so powerful and anything that is capable of wielding great good or evil should be, if practicable, directed in the channels that will lead only to the promotion of good. Therefore, it is a matter of vital importance not only to the individual but to the community at large that musical tastes in the right direction be acquired. The fact that certain types of music appeals to the brain, the highest motions and deepest sensibilities, leaves no doubt as to the advisability of choosing it as the musical rock on which to build our house of musical benefit and to use as a stepping stone to the highest things in life. How, then, shall we start in the effort to rightly direct the musical thought and taste? First of all, through the medium of music appreciation—that is, through having good music as much and as often as possible. The music, to be thoroughly enjoyed, should be intelligently explained to the listeners, so that the thought and intention of the composer may be understood and the correct interpretation made clear. Of course, in this matter—as in all others of like purpose—explanation should be brief and to the point, directing the thought but leaving some room for the mental effort and interpretation of the listeners. Having been led into the properly receptive condition of mind by a brief, interesting description of the music to be heard, the selection will be given a fair chance to impress itself and begin its mission of good.

This electrical equipment makes the projection of all pictures clear and distinct and removes all possibility of that jumping effect sometimes seen and which hurts the eyes. In addition to this Mr. Paul has put in a gold screen, which is the very latest in the motion picture houses and which has to be woven much like gold cloth. This gold screen adds to the clearness of the picture and removes all of the glare that sometimes appears on the screen and makes it possible for a person to sit very near the screen without any strain on the eyes. That the States Theater should incur this great expense is evidence of the fact that the management is trying to give the South Side moviegoers the same accommodations that can be found in the best of houses in this or any city. Mr. Paul will announce soon the appearance of two of the greatest screen productions of recent years. Congratulations are in order for Mr. Stone for his efforts. MRS. HALL WORKS TO MAKE "EVERYWOMAN" A SUCCESS MRS. HALL WORKS TO MAKE "EVERYWOMAN" A SUCCESS The play, "Everywoman," which is being presented by Mrs. George Cleveland Hall, head of the Ladies' Amateur Minstrels, for the benefit of the Alpha Phi Fraternity Scholarship Fund, is gradually coming into almost the same enthusiastic prominence as the annual event of the Lady Minstrels. The cast was drawn from the Lady Minstrels and from the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. With Miss Dorothy Cadozo as Youth, Miss Minnie McDowell as Beauty and Mrs. Gladys Allen as Truth, it naturally follows that many have developed an interest in the play that has not hitherto been shown. The announcement that Miss Ione Harris will assume the Theda Bara role further enliven the interest in the coming event. The care taken in selecting the different persons for the different roles anguers well for the character of the presentation, aside from the fact that the proceeds will be for a worthy cause. The complete management of the affair is in the hands of Mrs. Hall and every detail is being taken care of to assure complete success. The date set for the performance is December 2nd, at the Avenue Theater, and patrons are urged to secure their tickets early to avoid disappointment. CLARENCE WHITE IN RECTAL On Monday night at Lincoln Center, Clarence Cameron White, violinist charmed a large and appreciative audience, rendering selections from Mendelsson, Brahms, Handel, Paul Junon and three spirituals of his own composition. Critics agree that he has lost none of his power as an artist of the first water. Miss Cleo Dickerson accompanied him in all of his selections. The recital was under the direction of Mr. Julius Avendorph.

"HOLE IN THE WALL" "The Hole in the Wall" is one of the most gripping and interesting dramas that has been produced since that famous play, "The Thirteenth Chair." It will be presented at the Grand Theater next week exactly as it was produced at the Punch and Judy Theater in New York, where it was one of the most pronounced successes that Broadway has had in some time. Chicago theatergoers are to be congratulated upon the fact that they are to see this big mystery play at so early a date. Whether or not you believe in Spiritualism, and some of the biggest minds of the day argue that there is a great deal to it, you will find the treatment of this subject in the Fred Jackson drama. The Hole in the Wall, which is set to be a week's offering at the theater, one of the most absorbing plays you have witnessed in some time. "The Hole in the Wall" drives home an intensely interesting argument on the subject and does so without making it a sermon. Crooks who utilize so-called Spiritualism form a part of the action in the splendid drama, "The Hole in the Wall," which is to be a special attraction at the Grand Theater all next week. This famous play, by Fred Jackson, was a tremendous hit in New York, where it was considered the best piece of dramatic writing of its kind since "The Thirteenth Chair." Make your plans to see a performance next week, and make them now.

Before the largest crowd that has this year witnessed a football game in the Laidley Field in Charleston, the Howard University, of Washington, D. C., by means of Fullback Payne's educated toe, caused the downfall of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute eleven in a score of 3 to 0. The game was one of the hardest fought gridiron battles that the Howard eleven has butered for many years. It was the first time the Institute eleven has been defeated at home. Howard's win from the West Virginiaians marks the fourth game played during the season, from each of which she has emerged victorious and miscured upon. The only incident that marred the otherwise good game was the breaking of the right leg of Williams, the left end for Howard. Williams had run down the field twelve yards after pulling a pass out of the air, when he was tackled by the safety man. As he fell his leg doubled back under him and snapped just above the ankle, the bone puncturing the skin. At the opening of the game Institute kicked off to Howard and the men receiving the ball returned it ten yards. On the first play a penalty of 15 yards was inflicted for unnecessary roughness. The play was punctuated by frequent penalties all the way through. The prettiest run of the day came when Drewery, left half back for Institute, intercepted a pass and ran 45 yards, nearly to the goal line. Institute failed to put the ball over the goal line when they had it inside of the 10-yard line. Holland, the giant end of the Institute team, was the individual star for Institute. His punting was a feature. He also played a wonderful defensive game. When the Howard eleven gained possession of the ball in the first quarter it ploughed through the line of the Institute team and in fourteen plays gained six first down for a distance of 64 yards. But, with the ball on Institute's 25-yard-line, the West Virginia held the "Blue and White" for three downs. Payne then dropped back for the field goal and put the ball fairly between the uprights, three feet above the cross bar. Howard tried two or three other drop kicks but all failed to go for a score. Institute missed a chance to tie the score when a field goal, attempted from the 25-yard line by Holland, missed the upright by three feet. The ball was kicked from such an angle that the star booster for Institute had about three yards of the space between uprights to kick at. Two other attempts at a goal from greater distances failed, one from the 50-yard line. Not a substitution was made by either team until the injury of Williams in the third quarter caused him to come out and Walker went in his place. Crawford was then substituted for Melton for Howard. The weight and the speed of the Howard team was really the cause of the West Virginia warriors' downfall, but, on the whole, the teams were evenly matched. During the second half the game became a punting duel in which Holland outkicked Payne. The play during the last two periods was nearly always the center of the field. Several times it looked like one or the other of the teams would score, but the ball never crossed the goal line except when it was kicked. Then it was brought back to the 20-yard line. The game was witnessed by probably 3,500 fans, both white and colored. Summary: Howard. W. Va. Williams L. E. Holland Fuller, (Capt.) L. T. Brannen (Capt.) Smith L. G. Sounders Holton C.

TO PLAY MAPLEWOOD ROVERS ON ARMISTICE DAY The strong Maplewood Rovers from Logan Square are the next opponents of the Lincoln A. C. and will meet them at the American Giants' Park on Armistice Day, Friday, November 11 in a holiday gridiron tilt. "Fritz" Pollard, coach, has worked with the Lincoln team getting them in final shape for this mid-season game, and they are prepared to give a splendid exhibition of the sport which is taking the city by storm. The same price of 50 cents will prevail for admission. The Rovers have proven that they have a strong team, and a hard fought struggle is predicted. HOWARD ROMPS THROUGH SHAW 24-0 HOWARD ROMPS THROUGH SHAW 24-0 WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 12.—The Howard University football eleven, despite the absence of its two star players, "Bull Dog" Williams and Molson, who were injured in the West Virginia Collegiate Institute game October 29th, gave defeat to the Shaw University (Raleigh, N. C.) team Saturday, November 5th, by a score of 24 to 0. While the Shaw team put up a good fight in the first quarter, making it appear in the first eight minutes or play that it would be difficult for Howard to score, however, as soon as the "White and Blue" eleven got themselves together they dispelled all misgiving by smashing through Shaw's line for two touchdowns in the latter part of the first quarter, goal being kicked each time. Near the end of the first quarter, R Williams, Shaw's fullback, slipped through Howard's defenses and gave her the scare of the year by making a 45-yard run to the "Blue and White's" 10-yard line. It was here that Howard's line showed its strength by holding Shaw for the four downs. The remainder of the first half was played mostly in the center of the field. The second half contained many thrills but no scores, until the fourth quarter, when Howard made a 45-yard run off end with an exhibition of perfect interference. After two successive gains of 6 yards each, the ball was sent across for Howard's third touchdown. Goal was again kicked. With about three minutes in which to play Howard made another attempt to score, when a 20-yard gallop brought the ball within striking distance of Shaw's goal. Shaw's line held for two downs. On the third down a short forward pass was completed, bringing the ball to the center of the field, from which place a drop kick was registered from the 20 yard line for a field goal, giving Howard her final score of the game. Shaw was by far the strongest aggregation to visit Howard this season, and the account of the game might have read differently were it not for Howard's defensive teamwork. Howard's victory over Shaw leaves her still unscored upon for the season. It was the "Blue and White's" fifth game for the season and the last to be played at home. Summary: Howard. Shaw. Nurse R. E.

Graduates and former students are raising money to construct and equip this up-to-date field under the leadership of the Hampton Alumni Association, founded 43 years ago. Hamptonians everywhere are enthusiastic over the construction of the field, which will be one of the finest in the country. It will be equipped with grandstand, quarter-mile track, 220-yard straightaway, football and baseball fields. Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, and George J. Davis, Hampton 74, broke ground for the new field. E. L. Dabney, one of Hampton's football stars, loaded the first scraper. Representatives from the several R. O. T. C. companies shovelled cartloads of dirt and cheered the speakers, the athletic field and the Hampton Alumni Association. Value of Field to Hampton "This field is going to be a blessing," said Doctor Gregg, "not only to our school as regards its athletics, the outward and visible side, but it is going to be an asset and an advantage to the spiritual training of the school by reason of the promotion of self-control and co-operation. "I feel deeply grateful to Mr. Charles H. Williams for the long chain of influences, so to speak, which he has set in motion and which he has guided that have resulted in the gift of this field. It is deeply touching to think that our graduates should be so quick to respond to the invitation which he has given them within the past few months to contribute to the expense of making this field. I have not the least doubt that all the money that is given to the graduates is the money that is necessary to maintain the field is proper condition will be casually secured. I congratulate the graduates upon what they have done already and what they are going to do with the help of us all, to make Hampton Institute just the very best school to be found anywhere." TALLADEGA WINS SOUTH'S BIGGEST PIGSKIN EVENT By E. A. Lanier BIRMINGHAM, ALA., Nov. 5.—In the fast and brilliant game at Rickwood Park yesterday afternoon between the Talladega and Tuskegee elevens, contestants for the championship of the South, Talladega was the decisive and glorious victor. The game was witnessed by a crowd of over 3,000 people—Birmingham gridiron fans and a large body of students from each of the rival institutions. Officials and regular fans declare the game the best to be played on the field this season, white or colored, and both of the leading Birmingham daily papers (white) devote several columns to a detailed account of this classic of "The Art of the Pigskin." From the initial kick-off to the end of the first quarter the ball see-sawed in the middle of the field, with Tuskegee seemingly most aggressive and appearing to have a slight advantage. At the beginning of the second quarter Tuskegee steadily advanced the ball by line plays within six yards of Talladega's goal, finally sending it over for the first touchdown of the game on a criss-cross fake end run. The Talladega team, coming back with blood in their eyes, advanced the ball to within one yard of Tuskegee's goal, thus brightening back the enemy pint to the 30-yard line, finally evening the count by a series of forward passes and end runs. Booker, halfback, being the first lad to cross the coveted line. The second half—that's when the fun began. The score was 7—7. Talladega opened the fireworks by a field goal from the 25-yard line by the unerring toe of her "rambling" fullback. Edwards, Gordon, recovering Booker's fumble a few minutes later, scored Talladega's second touchdown. Then receiving the kick-off and being held for downs in her own territory, Edwards again booted the ball far down the field, out of bounds on the enemy's 3-yard line. Blocking the enemy behind the goal in their attempt to punt out, the Talladegans added a safety (2 points) to their score. From this moment on, the Tuskegeeans, who up to this time had been fighting seemingly to lose hope, and almost always on the defensive just seemed to crumple up before the Talladega machine, now in full working order. First, Edwards, the big fullback, circling the end at full speed, ran roughshod through the whole Tuskegee eleven for the third touchdown for the "Crimson and Blue." Next, Geny, tackle, added another touchdown to the high-piling score by covering an enemy fumble behind their goal—and, as the crowning point of the game, which brought the whole of the stands to their feet with a mighty roar, Rivers, Talladega's all-American end, his long arms tightly encircling a 45-yard forward pass from Edwards on a fake formation, romped across the conquered "Tiger's" line—sending Talladega's count up to a total of 39 points. A few minutes later and the crowd overflowed onto the field to grasp the victors' hands, the sun dropped behind the west field bleachers, and the game was over. Truly, Talladega "had met the enemy and they were their's," as were the laurels of the gridiron championship of the South. Line up: Talladega. Position Tuskegee. White L. E. Myers Gentry L. T.

Paddy Driscoll star player of the Chicago Cardinals was nailed in his tracks time and again by the dark-skinned, fleet-footed end who seemed to dart with the aid of wings. Although the Hammond team was defeated by a score of 7 to 0, which score was made in the first quarter, the Cardinal team found out that the man to be feated was Williams, who managed to get in every play and who outstripped even the ball in its flight. Spectators who scoffed at him upon his appearance on the field rooted for him continually after his splendid tackles and his handling of forward passes. Williams at Normal Park on Friday Since Williams played against the Canton Bulldogs, Jim Thorpe's old team, that team has had a wholesome respect, for "Ink's" speed, and secured him to play against the Akron team and now have secured him to play with them when Canton meets the Cardinals on Armistice Day at Normal Park. Football fans will again have an opportunity to see Brown's former star perform against before the season is closed. ATHLETES GAINING RECOGNITION ALL THROUGH COUNTRY Negroes are getting headlines on the sporting pages of the big city dailies by splendid sportsmanship and athletic prowess of first magnitude. Ned Gourdin of Harvard broke the world's record in the broad jump with a leap of 25 feet 3 inches, and just last month walked away with the national Pentathlon championship under his arms. This last consist of five events. Gourdin won three, was third in the discus throw and sixth in the 1,500 meter run. There were seven competitors. Earl Johnstone of Pittsburgh re- SCRIBES GET IN BEHIND DEMPSEY The growing dissatisfaction of the public with the attitude now maintained by Jack Dempsey in his refusal to fight Harry Wills is voiced by an editorial in the Chicago Tribune, as follows: Ring Lardner has an amusing story in last week's Saturday Evening Post. He calls it "The Battle of the Century." There may be considerably less fiction in it than there is in Prescott's "Conquest of Mexico" or Wells's "Outline of History." It may be the inside story of the Dempsey-Carpentier fight. Jim Dugan is Dempsey, Goulet is Carpentier, etc. What, anyway, make Ring Lardner think he was improving on the names? As fiction he presents the following as fact: Dempsey and his manager did not make enough money out of the Willard fight to pay for a Chinaman's personal laundry. They did not care for glory. They wanted coin. There was no one to fight for coin, because there was no one in the game who could be built up to draw a gate, Carpenter knocked Joe Beckett silly in seventeen seconds, and Dempsey's manager saw that the champion of Europe could be built up. He was built up, although Dempsey thought it was murder and wanted to know why they didn't put Benny Leonard in the ring with him. That at least would keep the $200,000 guaranty to the loser at home in America instead of sending it abroad. The preliminaries were built up, Carpenter was built up, Tex Rickard was built up, the New Jersey arena was built up, and the gate was built up. The main thing, the Dempsey bank roll, was built up. All these were man-made buildups. Nature built up something, which Dempsey and his manager might see in daylight even if it were invisible in the dark. Its name is Willis, profession the same as Jack's, prize fighter; object the same, to fight and make money; race different. He is black, but he is good. The Dempsey management need not worry about the gate for this fight. It will be good, better than they can build up for the gate for the colossus cornstalk. Willard. The only reason Kearns hesitates is for fear he'll lose his meal ticket. cently won the 15-mile marathon in Chicago, and not satisfied with that, he went to New York and won the National Amateur Athletic Union 10-mile run championship for his club, the Edgar Thompson A. A. of Pittsburgh. Most of the prep schools which have a number of race boys in attendance have representatives on the football teams, Woodward of Lane Tech being especially worthy of note. Great expectations were also being realized in Turner of Northwestern, when injuries sent him away from the gridiron. Taylor, however, is still alive and working hard at that school. All in all, it is a great season for race athletes. Lawrence QUALITY ICE CREAM CO. LINGOLN A. C. BEATS SD. CHICAGO INDEPENDENTS The Lincoln A. C. defeated the South Chicago Independents last Sunday to the tune of 33 to 0, keeping the ball in the territory of the South Chicagoans at all times. The Lincoln team showed at every stage of the game that they were the superior team, Teamwork and the splendid work of the Lincoln backfield clearly showed that the Lincoln team has given much training to all departments of the game. WILLS-TATE MATCH CALLED OFF. Big Bill Tate told a Whip reporter that Will's manager had called off the bout between him and Wills. Much interest had been created over this match as these two heavyweights are outstanding contenders for Dempsey's crown. Good basketball players living in other cities, expecting to make Cleveland their home during this season, should get into communication with the manager of the Swastikas. SWASTIKA 5 WANT TURKEY DAY GAME The Swastika Champs, Cleveland's leading basketball quintet, desires to arrange an out-of-town game for the night before Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving night or the night after Thanksgiving. Game can be arranged by communicating immediately with R. W. Taliaferro, 2396 E. 40th St, Cleveland, Ohio. Initial practice was held last week and ten players reported to the manager. From the spirit shown at the first practice, the Swastika Champs will be a worthy opponent for any team it meets. Hampton, a youthful athlete, has replaced Minor, who is attending Michigan, at center, and looks very promising. This is the only change from the champion line-up, so far. All candidates are given tryouts for positions, however, and several new faces might appear on the line-up.

WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSLEVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. What Do Suicides Mean? What Do Suicides Mean? Another theory is exploded and smashed as our people are seen committing suicide. A pet argument of the Southern philosophers used to be that "a black man never commits suicide." A good statistician can now compile figures covering recent suicides among black people and force those who claim that the problems of life never weigh very heavy upon the hearts of black people to admit that another foolish idea of the black man's difference and inferiority has been exploded, as every day some black man or woman ends the struggle of life by turning their hands upon themselves. It is claimed that only the highly developed races commit suicide and the black race being inferior and backward never took the issues of life so seriously that they would destroy themselves. A close student of fact can observe by following the newspapers published by black people that an epidemic of suicide has attacked the black race in America. Almost daily some dusky man or woman takes his own life. As among the other races of the world those of lighter "specific gravity" fall victims to the lure of ending their mortal existence; and our women constitute the majority of the suicides. It means that they feel keenly the baleful conditions of life, it means that they respond to the hurts of ill-fortune, it means that the strain and struggle for life in America has made them unstable and that they are no longer able to resist the fearful distress of body and mind which America puts them under. It means that discontent has made death easier than life. It means that they are sensitive, intelligent creatures who think and brood over the affairs of life. When a race of people begins to think and brood something must happen and something will. There is a famous bridge in Japan from which hundreds of Japanese students hurl themselves because of failure in their studies. The Japanese people are taking faster and quicker steps along the paths of civilization than most of the other races and it is a curious fact that suicides multiply with race progress. Maybe even out of our self-destruction, man's most repugnant and hideous crime, some hope can be found to dispel the gloom, at any rate they can no longer claim us inferior and distinct because we do not commit suicide. John C. Calhoun devoutly believed that the black people could never learn Greek nor master the mathematical problems of Euclid; but Calhoun, like President Harding, had encouraged his mind in prejudiced misconceptions which made him also believe that there were certain "fundamental and inescapable differences." Black people have now proven that the Greek language is no great enigma and that the lines and angles of the great Euclid could be easily mastered. The Scions of the South will be evidently perplexed and amazed to find out that the black people are now "drowning their sorrows in poison," "blowing out their brains" "taking bichloride of mercury," and diving from the bridge of death. Surely they will not argue here that the black man is imitating the white in taking his own life. It will be impossible to bring in the riddle of "social equality." After all, the black man is just human like other people. It is embarrassing to prove equality by introducing the fact of prevailing suicides among black people, yet facts, not fancies, such as President Harding advanced, will cause the white people to admit that the black people are fundamentally and eternally rational creatures, who live, laugh and even commit suicide like themselves. Armistice Day This day brings back memories of the great world war. Big Bertha is hushed and the terrible fratricide has ceased, yet when guns stopped fire the hatred in the hearts of men did not cease to burn and neither is this world a decent place to live in. The black men are filled with bitter reminders of the causes for which they futilely fought, for they are still maltreated, abused and murdered. Armistice Day is celebrated in America, but it brought no virtues to the black men who bled and died for Democracy. A Much Needed Institution At last a real constructive and much needed institution has begun to function in Chicago. That institution is the Real Estate Mortgage and Bond Corporation. It proposes to protect the property of the black people and at the same time give them a safe and sure investment. This kind of an institution is needed in every city in the United States and Chicago is fortunate in securing men who have the brains and means to aid this city. It gives us a great weapon to battle such enemies as the Kenwood and Hyde Park Property Owners Association and should be supported by every citizen who is interested in the real estate holdings of his people. The Real Estate Mortgage and Bond Corporation is to be congratulated for their efforts and the thirty thousands of dollars that they have used toward protecting our homes, should be augmented a hundred fold. --- THE CHICAGO WHIP HEALTH HINTS By Dr. Troy Smith Dear Dr. Troy Smith: I am a constant reader of the Whip and your articles have helped me wonder fully in keeping fit, but I have not always lived up to your advice, especially I am a constant reader of the Whip and your articles have fully in keeping fit, but I have not always lived up to yo the one about "to beware of the prostitute." The doctors, down here, tell me I have contracted gonorrhea, but none of them seem to be interested in my case. All they give me are pills and do not tell me what to eat and what not to eat, nor do they instruct me in regards to the proper hygienic measures to pursue. I have had this trouble top three months and do not tell me what to eat, nor do publish this letter and answer the same through the columns of the Whip, because I am sure that the general public needs proper instructions concerning the general care of the disease. A. B. B. Answer—My young man, you should not complain about the length of time you have been under treatment for this disease. Some cases respond to the treatment very quickly while others linger and are slow in responding. There is an old saying, "Everybody knows when gonorrhea begins, but God only knows when it ends." My advice to you is give one doctor a chance and do not change so much DR. TROY SMITH. I need yourself under a reliable physician and follow his advice. For general information of sufferers of gonorrhea, I am publishing a few hints in regard to the general hygiene of the disease: Care must be exercised not to touch the discharge. It may easily be communicated to the eye and cause a dangerous inflammation of that organ. For this reason extreme cleanliness is imperatively demanded. Prohibited: (1) All alcoholic and malt liquors, whisky, brandy, beer, wine; also carbonated drinks, vichy, soda water, etc. It is particularly harmful to drink large quantities of fluids, especially evenings, even including tea. (2) Condiments and seasoned foods, pickles, mustard, radishes, celery asparagus, onions, salads, maonnaise dressing, etc. as well as baked goods, sandwiches, and hot dogs. Prohibited evenings: Eggs, oysters, smoked beef, smoked or canned fish late suppers. Prohibited also: (3) All physical exertion, especially of a violent character. Riding on horseback, dancing, cycling, straining by lifting heavy loads, jumping on or from moving vehicles, street cars, etc., must be avoided. Recommended: Cereals, bread, butter, cheese, milk and puddings with fruits cooked and uncooked, as well as vegetables of all sorts constitute the ideal diet. Eat sparingly and easily digestible food only; supper at least three hours before eating. Drinks allowed: Milk, a little claret mixed with plain water (no carbonated water), fruit juices (except lemonade), tea, cocoa, coffee with plenty of milk. LEGAL HINTS G. C. ADAMS. Attorney at Law.

Yes, it is payable within a reasonable time after date. See a lawyer. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Eolls. Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. Perry Howard made a trip to Chicago recently and gave some news to the press(?) He did not, however, give the real story to the press. It has at last leaked out why he was here. The Chicago public as well as the entire United States will be interested to know what his real purpose in the city was. In next week's issue of The Whip the story of Perry Howard's Chicago visit will be revealed. There will be some startling disclosures made. Congress is too busy to pass on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill at the present session. Lynching bills have never carried much weight in Congress. The fact that the stench of burning human flesh fills the nostrils of the American public and the fact that mutilated bodies fixes the gaze of the world upon this country does not evidently disturb Congress. We can only hope that a change of heart will cause this great body of American citizens to rid this country of its arch evil. The South Side business men have decided to install humane working hours in this section of Chicago. Many of these men employ black people in their stores and feel that ten hours a day is enough time to exact from them. One store on State Street refuses to close with these gentlemen in the early hours of the evening. This gentleman should not be allowed to profit out of the beneficent acts of the business men. Maybe moral pressure is needed to force this gentleman into line. The Chicago Whip is ready and willing to aid. Hoodlums hooted President Harding in Atlanta, Ga., as he attempted to address the southernners there last week. Any acts of discourtesy shown to the chief executive of the nation should receive the severe censure of the press and should not be tolerated by the citizens of this nation. President Harding has at last seen a sample of the southern mob which disregards the most sacred institutions of the nation and even disrespects the Federal head. The North is very tolerant with the South and since the South was originally settled to a large extent by outlaws and convicts, nothing else can be expected. Patience, however, will soon be taxed. 8% INTEREST GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY 1ST MORGAGE 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% 8% - RECEIVE - 8% ON YOUR MONEY Have The Earth For Your Security We are organized to protect people.
