Kersey Triumphs In Hot Fight For Legislature PRICE 5 CENTS VOL. IV.—No. 15. "FIGHTING" BOB'S ENTRY TRIUMPHS Kersey Leads Field For Legislative Nomination. Runs Away From Veterans Latest returns with only fifteen precepts to be heard from in the Third Senatorial District show that George T. Kersey won the Republican nomination for Representative to General Assembly and Adelbert Roberts ran second, Warring B. D. Douglas a close third. Eugene Marshall brought up the rear, with the other candidates as "also rans." Hot Fight For Nomination A hot fight was waged in this district and the signal victory of George T. Kersey came as no surprise, but the failure of Warren B. Douglas to run second and thereby qualify as one of the two selected to run in November came as disappointment to the Deneen camp. Kersey Receives Congratulations Major Jackson, who sponsored the candidacy of Kersey was highly gratified by the results of the election and attributes the success of his candidate over his opponents to the clean record of Kersey and his refusal to deal in personalities or become involved in any controversy which raises the race issue. Friends and supporters of Major Jackson and Kersey have poured in their congratulations for their success.

Mosely Causes Arrest Atty. Harold F. Mosely, who is connected with the office of Atty. General Brundage, and who was directing the Brundage-Crowe forces in the 2nd Ward, was advised that the election laws were being violated at 3119 Indiana Ave. After investigating, Atty. Mosely ordered the arrest of Brinkman and Myers for passing out and displaying marked ballots to voters as they entered the booths. Brinkman was let out on habeas corpus granted by Judge Joseph B. David. The promptness and direct action of Atty. Mosely has won for him admiration and respect, although one of the younger men in politics. He represents the new type of men who are now interested in the affairs of the city and the race. Westbrooks Polls Heavy Vote For Bench This display of strength on the part of Atty. Westbrooks would seem to indicate that if he ran for an office controlled by the votes of one ward or district, he would win overwhelminess.

C., April 15—In sanity has come to the rescue of state officials perplexed to know what to do with one-armed Wright Rouse, condemned to death in the electric chair, while the white instigators of his crime got off with 30 years in the penitentiary. While refusing to take the view of the situation held by those who have been contending that North Carolina's self-respect was involved in the case, Governor Morrison has determined to commute Rouse's sentence to life imprisonment. Aged and decrepit, he will get his "release" from prison long before his white associates' murder of Will Whitely are free. Rouse's case recently has attracted nation-wide interest. Studying the case anew, Governor Morrison recently reached the decision in his own mind that Rouse must have been crazy when he walked 12 miles to shoot a white man he had never seen before. Furthermore, he did the shooting on credit. He says he was promised $500. Rouse has received only $3.60 "on account." SEEK U. S. PROBE OF HOWARD U. (By Special Correspondent) WASHINGTON, D. C., April 15. Declaring that the dismissal of Prof. W. H. H. Hart from the law faculty of Howard University is simply one incident in a long string of sins of omission and commission on the part of the school heads, prominent Howard alumni are preparing to ask Congress to launch into a complete house-cleaning "on the hill." As the institution is a national one and supported in large measure by Congressional appropriations, it would be easily feasible, it is pointed out. It is proposed to ask Congress to make a thorough investigation of the methods in which the university is conducted, and it is expected that gross inefficiency will be revealed. That something is wrong with the management of the university no one seems to doubt. Student strikes and rebellions have occurred in alarmingly large numbers in the last five or six years, and each time when the show down came, it is claimed, the faculty was forced to compromise the issue thereby indicating the contentions of the student body. Indignation Aroused No action on the part of the university authorities has so aroused indignation in recent years as did the dismissal of Professor Hart. His dismissal came as the result of an article published under his name in a Washington daily paper. The article referred to outlined a defense in the Boddy case which justified his taking the lives of the two detectives who sought to arrest him. When trustees demanded a retraction of the article, the professor refused to make one, claiming that he wrote the article as a lawyer, and not as a teacher. Prof. Hart is now looked upon in Washington as a popular hero and martyr. He served on the Howard faculty thirty-two years and is entitled to recommendation for the Carnegie foundation. Prof. Hart secured the original appropriation for founding the Howard Law School. He is recognized as one of the best criminal lawyers in the District of Columbia. Refused Man Refund WASHINGTON, D. C., April 15.—When Mrs. Francis Kurtz, white, refused to give an unidentified man a refund for money he had deposited on soft drink bottles, he smashed one over her head and fled. FLASH GUNS, SEIZE MENS' AGED WIVES Perpetrators Of Outrage Go Free, Although Identity Is Said To Be Known LAKE CHARLES, La., April 15.—Strict censorship prevails throughout the county to prevent the publication of stories concerning the most outrageous assault in the history of this community. Everything possible is being done to conceal the names of two white men who assaulted George Hadden and a companion, and after beating them brutally, criminally attacked their wives. All four of the victims are over sixty years of age. After the attack, Hadden was found on the side of the road with a gash in his head, picked up in an automobile, and taken to Vinton, from which place he was sent here to a sanitarium for treatment. Two of the victims of the attack are still missing. On Fishing Party According to the story which persons in the vicinity tell, the two white men had been harassing Hadden for some time. On the day of the attack the victim, who is past 60 years of age, had gone with his wife and a friend to do some fishing. While they were at this they were come upon by the two white men who had molested them before. The whites are said to have stood around and insulted the woman. A little boy who was there, Charley Sampson, says that the two thugs sought to get the men to go away and leave their wives. They started in by coaxing and offering money. This attitude angered Hadden and his companion. Hot words followed, whereupon the whites jumped up, drew guns from their pockets and threatened the two fishermen. Sampson sought refuge behind a tree. Hadden continued to remonstrate. The white men, thinking the better of killing him, decided to drive him away, and one of them struck him on the head with a revolver. The old man was knocked unconscious. The other man was driven out of sight, bound and gagged. Then the women were attended to Picked Up By White Woman Their assailants fled. Hadden recovered consciousness and started to walk to Vinton to get medical aid for himself and his wife. On the way he was picked up by a white woman in her automobile. When he got to Vinton he told his story to a doctor there, who notified the sheriff. The identity of the white men who committed the crime was learned by Sheriff Lyons, but he refused to divulge them, claiming that to do so would only make bad matters worse. In this attitude he is being backed by the law. Hadden himself may die. His wife is in a hysterical condition and on account of her age may not live. It is feared that the other man and his wife have been kidnapped by the Ku Klux Klan. Westbrooks Gets Loyal Support A. B. C. Latest returns indicate that in the city-wide balloting for judge of the Municipal Court, Atty. Richard E. Westbrooks pollled over 10,000 votes. South Side precincts voted almost solidly for the young lawyer in addition to heavy balloting in other parts of the city. CHICAGO, SATURDAY, APRIL 15th, 1922 A CROOKED DEAL A LYNCHING A JIM CROW CARS A SEGREGATE A PEONAGE A DISFRANCHISEMENT JOKER LIBERTY White Woman Held Prisoner Eight Years PITTSBURG, Pa., April 15, Mrs. Charlotte Wyles, a white woman 45 years of age, was kept in the most peculiar form of imprisonment heard of in years, according to Judge De Wolf of the Municipal court, who has freed the woman and held Henry Washington, 3000 Lorigan Ave., without bond. According to the evidence presented in court, Washington held the woman a prisoner in his home for eight years. During the entire time of the white woman's presence in his home, his wife and three children lived there with him also. Washington is said to have intimated his wife and children into keeping silent of Mrs. Wyles' presence in their home, saying he possessed supernatural powers, and would be witch them all. He is said to have explained further that he kept the woman there to shield her from witches. The woman is said to have run away from her husband to go to live at the Washington home. She is said to have a son 20 years of age. Both Mrs. Washington and Mrs. Wyles were turned over to social welfare agencies for observation. Hold Woman With Mania For Adopting Strange Babies Mrs. Helen Libby, of Logansport, Ind., described as a "mulatto," has been arrested on a technical charge and placed in jail in Logansport. Mrs. Libby is said to be obsessed with a mania for adopting babies and representing them to be her own. She is said to have appeared periodically at charitable institutions seeking new babies to adopt. Irene Fryerson, of Logansport, told investigators that Mrs. Libby had paid her with a baby for eight days' work at her home. COP SHOOTS LIGHTS OUT IN CHURCH SAVANNAH, Ga. April 15—There was quite a scene at Second Arnold Baptist Church, Arnold near President streets, on Sunday morning when officers of the church attempted to prepare for the five o'clock prayer meeting. The church is pastored by Rev. H. J. Washington and has a thriving congregation. Around five o'clock in the morning Joseph Owens, one of the deacons, arrived at the church and proceeded to put on the lights on the inside. At this juncture, Lazarus Jenkins, one of the members, came up and requested Owens to light the lights on the outside and because Owens did so, after being ordered not to by W. E. Baughn, a motorcycle policeman, the officer took two shots at the light and kicked Jenkins in the side, all of which brought the officer before Recorder Schwartz Monday morning and resulted in his dismissal from the force and a fine of $200.00 or sixty days in jail. Gets Cop's Number After the light had been extinguished by the officer, he left the scene of the shooting but was followed by Jenkins who secured his number and acting upon the suggestion of the pastor, reported the trouble to police headquarters and an immediate investigation was begun which terminated with the officer being haled before the recorder. According to the testimony at the hearing Monday morning, when Owens and Jehkins reached the church, one of them requested the other to "light the light" located at the entrance of the church. A voice from the dark alleyway side church ordered that the lights not be lighted. "If you light that light I will shoot it out." The voice was that of Officer Baughn, hidden back in the alleyway. The light was lighted, and the officer (Continued on Page 3) Chicago's Most Popular and Widely Read Weekly PRICE FIVE CENTS EIGHT PAGES LEAK DEAL ARS A DISFRANCHISMENT JOKER RE Also Fun De LI An in the Pytha America tralia the a ize t throu The week sione check tion, ords The A sence are r suran missi attor who the d of do An order fense held tence Co the f the d insur contre exper It organ Third Trial For Elaine "Rioters" MARIANNA, Ark, April 15—One of the important cases set for the coming session of court is the third trial of the six so-called "Elaine insurrectionists," charged with the murder of W. A. Atkins, who was killed at the Hoop Spur schoolhouse September 30, 1919. Atkins was the first man killed in the Elaine insurrection, which occurred October, 1919 in Phillips county. This will be the third trial of these cases, which are being tried on a change of venue from Phillips county upon the application of the defendants. The first trial in Phillips county resulted in conviction and a sentence of death, but upon an appeal to the Supreme Court, the cases were reversed because the verdicts returned by the jury omitted the words "of murder in the first degree." Upon a remand of the cases they were tried the second time in Phillips county, resulting in another conviction and sentences of death the second time. The cases again were appealed, and again reversed by the Supreme Court on the ground that the Circuit Court had erred in hearing testimony on a motion which had been filed by the defendants to quash the jury venire on the ground that discrimination had been used in drawing the jury, in that only whites were summoned for jury service. The men on trial are Ed Ware, John Martin, Alf Banks Jr., Will Wordlow, Albert Giles and Joe Fox.

Eagle EIGHT PAGES RECEIPTS FOR 1921 MISSING Also Charge Misuse Of Funds In Contributing To Defense Of Elaine "Rioters" LITTLE ROCK, Ark. April 15. An investigation into the affairs of the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and the State of Arkansas, by the attorney general, may revolutionize the operations of secret order throughout the United States. Receipt Book Missing The investigation began several weeks ago when Insurance Commissioner Bullion, making his annual checkup of the affairs of the organization, found that there were no records for receipts during the year 1921. The receipt book was missing. A further search disclosed the absence of several other records which are required of orders dealing in insurance and similar matters. The commissioner then filed charges with the attorney general, and state experts who are working on the figures hint the disappearance of several thousands of dollars. Attack Contributions Among expenditures of funds of the order is an item of $480.00 for the defense of the Elaine Riot victims now held in the penitentiary under sentence of death. Commissioner Bullion declared that the funds of the organization are for the exclusive benefit of members of the organization, as construed under insurance laws, and that the Elaine contribution constituted an improper expenditure. It is declared that if all fraternal organizations with insurance features are subjected to the same rigid supervision as insurance companies the operations of fraternal organizations will be revolutionized. ANNAPOLIS, Md., April 15. For the second time in two years, Maryland's uniform marriage law, drawn up to deal a "death blow" to intermarriage between the white and colored races, was killed last Saturday on its third reading in the Senate. The vote stood 16 to 5. According to Senator Frick, who advocated its passage, the bill was aimed primarily at marriages between the two races. For years, this question has been the subject of fiery discussions, and many women, prominent in Maryland politics, appeared as the bill was being argued. Under the laws of some states, intermarriage between the two races is allowed, and according to the custom existing among states of recognizing laws of other states, Maryland is forced to accept such marriages, if the parties come to this state to live, despite the fact that the Maryland law prohibits it. Features Attacked If passed, the law would have rendered invalid any marriage contracted in Maryland, if contrary to the law of the state from which the parties came, or in other states by Maryland residents if that marriage was contrary to Maryland law. Opposition to the bill was led by Senators Biggs and Robb. Mr. Biggs attacked the former feature particularly, declaring that by this, Maryland sought to extend the jurisdiction of its Legislature to other states. Memphis Woman Asks To Be Jailed MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 15. "I have killed a man, and I want to be jailed," was the confession of Mrs. Morris, as she appeared at the County jail and surrendered to officers for the murder of "Son" Jasper at Eldorado, Ark, March 17. Her request was complied with.

The Brundage-Crowne Machine was successful in defeating the slate of Governor Deneen and the City Hall combination. The candidates of the black race could not all win but the upshot of the result strengthened the opinion that great possibilities lay in the black voters. Latest Returns Sheadrick B. Turner walked away with the nomination in the First District and Harris B. Gaines, the young lawyer, made an excellent showing against the present encumbent Brinkman. Gaines charges double dealing and crooked voting and the election commission is investigating the charges. In the third district Geo. Kersey, prominent fraternal man and underker, led the ticket, with the present encumbent Adelbert Roberts a close second. Warren B. Douglas was defeated, but the "miracle man" was the center of attack of the city hall forces. Augustus Williams, Eugene Marshall and Oliver A. Clark all made splendid showings. Morris Lewis did not run as well as was expected. Senators Samuel Etelson and Marks defeated their opponents of our race with hands down. Marks getting three to one plurality and Ettelson chalking up a larger vote than the composite score of Dr. Huff, Atty. Sims and Atty. Anderson. Wallace Clark Defeated The most signal victory of the race was the defeat of Wallace Clark, who, it is alleged, is an avowed enemy of the black race. The voters of the second and third wards voted solidly against him, the result being that his opponent Charles Ringer won in a walk-away. DULUTH RIOT CASE IN MINNESOTA SUPREME COURT DULUTH RIOT CASE IN MINNESOTA SUPREME COURT DULUTH, Minn., April 15.—The Max Mason case, appealed from the trial at Duluth, was argued orally before the Supreme Court of Minnesota, Wednesday, by Attty, F. L. Barnett of Chicago, representing Max Mason, appellant, and Warren E. Greene, county attorney of Duluth, representing the State. The case was taken under advisement and an opinion will be rendered later. In his argument, Mr. Barnett contended that the statement of the case by the prosecuting witnesses was wholly insufficient to justify a verdict; that no reasonable identification of Max Mason was shown by the evidence; that Max Mason was indicted after he had been compelled to testify against himself, and that the evidence presented by the state, not only raised a reasonable doubt, but actually proved that no rape had been committed. Max Mason and five others were indicted for rape alleged to have been committed upon a white woman on a circus ground in Duluth, June, 1920. The result of that charge was the arrest of seventeen men on the morning after the alleged rape. Three of the arrested men were lynched that night with indescribable brutality, and the whole city of Duluth was thrown into riot and turmoil for three days. Thirteen other colored men were held in jail for several days—then seven were discharged by the Grand Jury and six were indicted for rape. In April, 1921, the indicted men were called to trial. What Ralph wrote to Bill Bert Williams Left $200,000 To Widow NEW YORK CITY, April 15. The publication of Bert Williams' will, which was recently admitted to probate, has settled many rumors concerning the comedian's estate. It had been rumored that Williams left only $2000 to his widow. The $2000 mentioned referred to personal property, such as clothing and jewelry. It has been announced by Mrs. Williams' attorneys that she will receive all the comedian's property valued at about $100,000 in addition to $25,000 in royalties from songs composed and sung by her husband during his long career on the stage. College Men In Drive For Education College Men In Drive For Education WASHINGTON, D. C., April 15—Announcement has just been made by national secretary, Norman L. McGhee of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity of the recent formation of chapters of the organization at the State University of Iowa, Iowa (City); the University of California, Berkeley, Cal.; the West Virginia Collegiate Institute, West Virginia, and a new chapter at Harvard University, Cambridge Mass. This brings the roll of chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha up to 42 in number, comprising nearly every leading American college and university. Within the next ten weeks the fraternity is to begin its annual "Go to High School, Go to College" campaign with final efforts centered on the week of May 8 to 14. Simultaneously throughout the country its various chapters will conduct an intensive campaign among the students in the graded and high schools urging them to increase their educational equipment. Meetings are to be held in churches, halls, high schools, and various assembly places where speakers will present the appeal of the fraternity to the youth of the nation to continue through the graded and high schools and take up collegiate and professional work in order that they may be better fitted to serve their race and country. The national campaign this year will be under the direction of the Commission on General Affairs of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity composed of Attorney Daniel W. Bowles, St Louis, Mo., chairman; Lucius L. McGhee, Oklahoma City, Okla.; Dr Homer Cooper, Chicago, Ill.; William J. Powell, Champaign, Ill.; Ralph O. Lanier, Lincoln University, Pa. Homer S.

He went to his death singing: "I am going home to die no more." BILL is a good substantial citizen who, like many of us, had, up to a short time ago, never saved his money systematically. He never really thought seriously of investing in bonds until he was married a few years ago. Being inexperienced in financial matters, he wrote several letters to Ralph, an attorney friend of his, who answered all his questions in a very simple and clear manner. We have just published a booklet called "An Investor's Letters" which contains all of Ralph's and Bill's correspondence. You will find it very interesting and it may clear up some of the questions you have in your own mind about investment matters. We shall be glad to send "An Investor's Letters" free of charge or obligation to anyone who requests it. THE CHICAGO WHIP "11" cigarettes 10¢ Good!

Declaring he had been criticised by the more radical ones for his conciliatory attitude on the race question. Sutton E. Griggs in a signed article says that the dinner at the White House where Booker T. Washington was Theodore Roosevelt was the cause of the enactment of Tennessee's separate car law. Some who favor a policy of co-operation between the races criticize the friendly tone and manner necessary to bring it about. Thus I have been blamed for not putting more harshness in my pleas for our people. In dealing with the race question, the question of atmosphere should steadily be kept in mind. It was in the hostile atmosphere created by the dinner between President Roosevelt and Booker T. Washington that the separate car law was passed in Tennessee. It was in the time of more or less hostile feeling between the two races that brutal lynchings have taken place. In an atmosphere of kindness the lynching of Negroes has been abandoned in the state, white juries have freed Negroes charged with the murder of white men, in one case where the killing was admitted. It was the right sort of atmosphere that made it possible for Tennessee to complete the ratification of the amendment to the Federal Constitution that enabled Negro women in various states of the nation to vote. Crowds View Unveiling Of Statue Crowds View Unveiling Of Statue TUSKEGEE. Ala., April 15. — Transportation methods ranging from special cars to muleback were utilized to bring to Tuskegee a steady stream of people to attend the unveiling of a statue of Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute. Special cars brought parties from New York, Washington, Chicago, Atlanta and New Orleans, and the country-side rallied in automobiles, on horseback, muleback, afoot and in every conceivable kind of vehicle. Those present from Chicago and vicinity were Mr. and Mrs. Julius Rosenwald, Walter Hoff Seeley, William R. Cowan, A. L. Jackson, Dr. D. Herbert Anderson, Dr. John A. Weaver, Dr. John W. Lewis, Dr. George A. Thornton, David Hawley, J. L. McKenzie, Mrs. B. L. Goodkind, Mrs. Max Stern, Dr. George C. Hall, Davison Washington, George R. Arthur, Dr. L. H. Butler, Dr. L. E. McDonald, Claude A. Barnett. The unveiling was set for the afternoon with Dr. Wallace Buttrick, president of the general education board; Dr. George C. Hall of Chicago; and Josephus Daniels, former Secretary of the Navy, as speakers. A letter from Presiding Harding praising the work of Booker T. Washington, was made public today. In it the President said: "I think there will be little divergence from the opinion that Booker T. Washington was one of the most useful Americans of his time, and that the work he inaugurated and so long directed is already demonstrating the wisdom of his attitude toward one of the great public questions of the nation. My own views on this subject are in no small part the result of my observation of Dr. Washington's work and its results. "I have long felt that Booker T. Washington had visioned the right way to deal with our nation problem of the races, in a manner most likely to produce the best effects from the standpoint of the entire nation and of all elements of its people. I am glad of the occasion thus to signify my very high esteem for a great leader." The statue, a heroic bronze made by Charles Keck of New York, repre- EGYPTIANS IN SUDAN LINE UP WITH N. A. A. C. P. NEW YORK CITY. April 15—Egyptians in the Sudan have become members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, according to announcement at the national office. News of the fight over the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the United States has spread to Egypt and the letter from the Sudan enclosing memberships contains a word of congratulation on the passage by the House of Representatives of the measure. The letter from Egypt says in part: "You know it is quite easy to rob a man if he is blind; whether physically or intellectually. It i s an outstanding fact that the rulers of Africa, without exception, deny my race this privilege of self-seeing, because they feel that some day these people whom God has created free will arise and demand the exit of their oppressors. So they say, if not in word in deed' keep the Nigger blind; and we'll see to it hat no one opens his eyes: not even the Carpenter of Nazareth if He was on earth. "That's the noxious atmosphere we are inhaling daily, you can judge the present state of our health. We look to you as never before, praying that you will remember us as you struggle on for the welfare of the race. Convey please our warm congratulations to the wary and indefatigable Secretary 'J. W. J.' (James Weldon Johnson) for his recent achievement (Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill)." Trotter Purse Reward For Long Service (By Rev. W. D. McClane) The impartial Historian of the future will record the fact that William Monroe Trotter did as much as any one man of his time to protect the sacred jewel of Liberty for his people. He has been consistent, relentless, courageous and uncompromising and as radical as truth. The worst piece of ingratitude would be to allow him to pass off the stage of action unappreciated and unhonored by those whom he has so loyally and faithfully striven to serve. He will reach his fiftieth birthday in a few days. In view of that fact many prominent citizens of Massachusetts have organized to honor him and present him with a purse of gold April 18th. I have been elected as Corresponding Secretary of that movement and I consider it an honor to serve. Please therefore let me appeal to you from the bottom of my heart to send me contributions at once from any part of the country. We wish to make this tribute a national one. As a receipt for your contribution we will print your name and the amount in the Guardian, unless you request otherwise. Please grant this request. Send anything from a dollar up, but send it quickly as the time is short. We want to break the Alabaster box of love over him Tuesday evenings April 18th, the love of his Race which he has served so well. We want to shower him with the tokens of our gratitude, because he has rung true because though he could have chosen the easier way, he instead took the path of duty and honor. Therefore you and I and all will honor him now. Send your token right away.

Yarmouth Jag Cost Garvey 8 Thousand NEW YORK CITY. April 15.—The drunk thrown by the officers and crew of the S. S. Yarmouth, the Black Star Liner, will be known hereafter as the $8,000 jag. The Supreme Court has ordered that this figure be paid the Pan Union Corporation as damages for the non-delivery of a cargo of Green River Whisky to Cuba. According to contract, the delivery was to be made before the Volstead Act went into effect. It appears that when the boat set sail for Cuba, both captain and crew began to imbibe of the precious cargo so liberally that by the time the boat had reached Cape Hatteras, everything on it was drunk, and the steamer itself was literally "wallowing at sea." Revenue cutters towed the boat back to Brooklyn, and by the time the outfit sobered up, the time limit had elapsed. All Aboard For Annual Turf Classic Plans for Chicago's annual pilgrimage to the Kentucky track classic are already shaping themselves up, and from present indications it appears that even a much larger crowd will journey to Louisville on Derby Day than did last year. As usual, Clarence (Packy) McFarland, Jas, Williams, and William Bottoms will operate a special train to the track, and the trip is being looked forward to as one of the most pleasurable events of the season.

The train is scheduled to leave Friday night, May 12, at 9:00 p.m., m. over the Pennsylvania Lines, arriving in Louisville at 9:00 a. m. Derby Day. Meals will be served from the dining car attached to the train. The Special will leave Louisville at 4:00 a. m. Sunday morning, arriving in Chicago Sunday afternoon for the convenience of those who wish to be back in Chicago by Sunday. Special interest is centered on the Derby this year on account of the fact that the great 2 yr. old, Morvich, is expected to be entered.

Kelley, who had voted against the Dyer Bill, it was announced today that Senator Townsend, his opponent, had explicitly come out in favor of the Dyer Bill and had promised to give it his support in the Senate if elected. Senator Townsend announced his stand in a letter to Oscar W. Baker, who has been chosen as chairman of the colored division in Michigan to support Senator Townsend's candidacy. The letter is as follows: I have your courteous favor of March 29th this mail stating that you had been selected as chairman of the colored division in Michigan for the purpose of favoring my candidacy for renomination to the Senate, and you call my attention to the Dyer Antia Lynchning Bill. I cannot imagine that any intelligent civilized being could even indirectly favor Lynchning. It is exaggerated murder, and one of the worst enemies of law and order known to civilization. The growing practice of Lynchning calls for every effort of organized society to check it. There is work for the countries, states and nation in this behalf, and any practical constitutional method which is brought before the Senate having for its object the suppression of Lynchning will have my support. The Dyer Antia Lynchning bill is, in my judgment, con- Telephone Drexel 7226 Office Hours: 11 A.M. Sundays by Ap Dr. R.

R. McCall, of counsel for President W. J. Hale, of the Tennessee State Normal School, the attorney says the charges sprang from jealousy and enmity toward his client, and will fail when brought to trial. Prot. Hale was indicted on charges of defrauding ex-service men who are in training at the Tennessee school. The statement by Judge McCall is in part as follows: Personal Enmity Charged "Without desiring to reflect in the loath upon the United States District Attorney, who, I am sure, has no interest in the matter further than to see that the laws of the United States are not violated with impunity. I think an investigation of the inception and progress of these cases will disclose that there is bitter personal empathy at the bottom of all of them, and that persons whose names do not appear in public are pushing these prosecutions. I might see persecutions, through malice, spite and envy. "As everybody knows, the examinations conducted before the grand jury are wholly one-sided. The defendant is not permitted to present his side of the matter in person or by witnesses to the grand jury. The grand jury, therefore, hears all the evidence that the prosecution thinks may tend to show guilt and it hears no evidence which may tend to show the innocence of the accused. Under such procedure the fact that the grand jury returns an indictment shows only that the government is able to present evidence which unexplained, indicates that the defendant is probably guilty. Whereas, in the grand jury had all the facts before it both for and against the accused, it would not return an indictment. I am writing this to ask that people, who desire to be just, withhold forming an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of these men until their eyes are tried before the court and jury where both sides will be heard and the facts presented. "These defendants are well known leaders of their race in the state. They are men who stand at the top in national and business affairs and who attained their high standing by years of effort and struggle and by living correct lives in this community and they are entitled to fair treatment." Terms Indictment Indefinite The indictments against them are based on three transactions, except the indictments for conspiracy, which are very general and indefinite. One is a charge of embezzlement of a certain trainee's check for $6250; another is a charge of forging a trainee's name as an endorsement on a check for $76.25, and the third is the attempt to extort $5 from a trainee. These charges are based upon the respective statements of the said trainees themselves. None of these charges were made before the United States Commissioner, and defendants had no knowledge that such would be made before the grand jury. They assert their innocence of said charges and their friends believe they will be completely exonerated when the cases are heard. These new Hale and Robinson, handled thousands of checks and hundreds of thousands of dollars passed through their hands for the trainees and after weeks and months of a most searching investigation by trained inspectors, the alloys are the only violations charged against them. little was found upon which to bring a charge. When the time comes that the defendants may be heard they will explain these transactions to the entire satisfaction of the most exacting "There have been so many must-leading statements published about these cases and so much political propaganda illuminated about them and against the defendants, and also against the State Board of Education which knowing all of the facts, has been standing like a stone wall for justice and right, that I thought you would consent to publish a few facts so that your readers would know there is an other side to be considered. SAVANNAH COP SHOOTS OUT CHURCH LIGHTS (Continued from page 1.) carried out his threats. One of the men struck a match. He says he saw another person, but that person managed to get away. The officer remained, and, according to the statement before the recorder, attacked Jenkins. Officer Baughin told the recorder he was hiding in the lane to be on hand if the Negroes in the nearby dance "started anything". He denied kicking Jenkins, and denied the presence of another person. He admitted shooting out the light. Recorder Schwartz then placed his fine at $200 or sixty days in jail. Chiropodist's Skill Saves Woman's Leg For many weeks after an infection had attacked Miss Ollie Mahone, popular clerk at the Walgreen Drug Store, 35th and State Streets, it was feared by her friends that she would never be able to walk again, or at best with the aid of a crutch. She was placed under medical care and operation after operation seemed to prove a failure. After others had relinquished hope of saving the girl's leg, Dr. Wm. A. Hill, a chiropodist of 3518 State Street, took charge of the case and was so successful in his treatment that Miss Mahone has been enabled to walk without assistance and is on the road to rapid recovery. The afterglow of a broken and bejeweled romance sputtered out Wednesday in the Harrison St. police court when Judge Fetzer dismissed Frank M. Sommers, 4527 St. Lawrence Ave., of a charge of larceny by bailie of a diamond ring. The ring was the property of Mrs. Ollie Isaacs. Evidence showed that Mrs. Isaacs gave the diamond to Sommers and afterward demanded it when he announced his engagement to another woman. When he refused to return it, she caused his arrest. Sommers was represented by Atty. Violet Anderson, Mrs. Isaacs by Atty. Jas, Cashin. Collegians To Sing The "Sheik" Collegians To Sing The "Sheik" The Kappa Alpha Psi Glee Club will appear on a unique musical at Lincolon Centre 39th and Oakwood Boulevard on Monday evening, April 24th, 1922, at 8:15 o'clock. The program to be rendered will be characterized by originality in presentation and arrangement and excellence in artistic workmanship. The personnel of the Glee Club includes some of the finest talent in the city both in vocal and instrumental music, as well as a number of first-class theatrical performers. The presentation of the program is beneath the direction of Chas. A. Wilson, Count Teffner, and E. J. Ricks, all of whom have had considerable experience and success in local anateur dramatics. The Glee Club appears under the engaging title of the "Whippoorwills and Pollywogs." Among the features of the musical will be the tradition in costume of the popular song hit "The Sheik," and a one act play "The Honorable Togo. The ability of the performers and the thornghewns, with which they are being prepared guarantees a performance of professional calibre. This is the second appearance of this group of young college men who are working so earnestly to bring a fresh and original impulse into the artistic life of the community. They deserve the notated support of the Chicago music loving public. Postmaster Delivers Address At. St. Mark Lyceum On Sunday, April 9, 1922, the Honorable Arthur C. Layne, postmaster, delivered a very interesting and instructive address to an overflowing audience at Saint Mark Lyceum. The postmaster gave very briefly the history of the establishment of post offices and in a very comprehensive manner outlined the work of the Chicago Post Office and the means by which the service could be improved. This postmaster emphasized that his office was open at all times to all persons regardless of race. Bird remarks were made by assistant superintendent of mails, Mr. A. Shields, secretary to the postmaster, Mr. John E. Siketa, Mr. Arthur Dozier, president of the Phalanx Club Col. John B. Jenkins and Rev. John W. Pollinson, who introduced the speakers. And excellent musical program was rendered by the Phalanx Club Orchestra under the able direction of Mr. Edwin O. Tucker with Mrs. R. A. Bedan accompanist. The program for our next meeting Sunday, April 23, 1922, will be an- nounced in the next issue of this paper.

C., April 15 (Special)—That the material and moral interests of the whole country are involved in the question of education in the South is the substance of an interview given out by Dr. John J. Tigert, United States Commissioner of Education, on his return from a recent conference in Nashville with the heads of the twenty-eight State and Federal Land Grant Colleges. The fact that Dr. Tigert is a native of Tennessee and has always lived in the South, adds significance to his statement, which follows in full: "The neglect of Negro education has resulted in an immeasurable loss to the country. It has affected not only the material prosperity, especially of the South, where the Negro population is greatest, but has likewise affected the standard of living and the character of citizenship, and has injured the morale of our people. If we had long ago made provision for the technical education of our Negro population, the increase in the value of our products, both agricultural and manufacturing, would have been incalculable great. The intangible and immaterial benefits which would have accrued can scarcely be estimated, nor can we form any estimate of what would have been the effect upon the Negro himself by way of encouragement, raising his ambition and increasing his value as a citizen." Urban LeagueOpen For Fellowship Applications NEW YORK, CITY, April 15—The National Urban League announces that applications may now be filed for its social service fellowships for the school year 1922-1923. These fellowships are available for graduates of recognized colleges or persons who can present evidence of equivalent training.

Already some of the most successful colored social workers have received training in these fellowships and authorities associated with the League are enthusiastic about the growth in standards of social service among colored people resulting in past from these fellowship awards. The candidates are selected on the basis of personality, training, physical condition and a competitive examination showing the student's knowledge of current affairs and social service problems of the day. Successful candidates, of course, are formally awarded the fellowships on qualifying for admission to the school to which they are assigned. Persons interested, whether north or south, should tie their applications with the Educational Committee of the National Urban League, 127 East 23rd street, New York City.

Mrs. Clarence Muse, wife of Clarence Muse, well known actor, was brutally assaulted Tuesday afternoon of last week as she was alighting from a street car in Harlem. The attack is said to have been staged by a special policeman. Mrs. Muse, who is known on the stage as Belle Moore, was returning from Willard Park Hospital from the bedside of her young son, who is seriously ill. Both Mr. and Mrs. Muse are well known in Chicago. Young Pastor Has Performed Great Service Rev. G. W. Baber, perhaps the youngest pastor in the city of Chicago, has just finished his first year as head of Trinity Church. This young man faced a Herculean task when he took over this church which had very few members and was sadly in need of funds. He took hold of his problems courageously and began to wage such a stern vice against the moral evils in his community that he was the center of attraction and admiration of the entire city. Gets Institutional Idea Dr. Baber not only pointed out the evils of the community, but started to correct them with remedial services. He, assisted by energetic members, fostered and founded an institutional department consisting of a gymnasium, a nursery, a branch of the public library, a free dental and medical clinic and was able to employ two active community workers. Trinity has done wonderful work in adding and assisting the unemployed and indeed an employment bureau is another one on the features of the Trinity Church. Powerful Preacher The pastor of Trinity Church is one of the most eloquent and impressive pulpiters in the country and his exemplary life gives force to his utterances. Great crowds flock out to hear and the membership of his church has almost reached the five hundred mark. He has the assistance of the Law and Order league and all civic institutions who favor a higher standard of moality and clearer Christian communities.

LEGISLATURE URGES PASSAGE OF DYER BILL (Special) BOSTON, Mass., April 7, 1922—Today a petition to the legislature of Massachusetts that it urge the U. S. Senate and its judicial committee to pass legislation to make lynching a federal crime was admitted to the Mass. Senate under a suspension of the rules and referred to its committee on federal relations. On Wednesday, this same petition, which was made in the name of the National Equal Rights League, was admitted to the Mass. House under suspension of the rules and referred to its Committee on Constitution Amendments. These Committees will both give public hearings in short order. The petition was introduced last week by Rep. Mevers of Cambridge, Mass., at the request of Wm. Monroe Trotter, national secretary, E. T. Morris, president of the Boston Branch, and Rey Walter D. McClane, chairman of the Executive Committee, and referred to the Committee on Rules on the question of suspending the rules to admit late legislation which gave a public hearing on Tuesday of this week. Secretary Trotter, Press. Morris and Albert G. Woltz, Esq., secretary of the Boston Branch, spoke for the League's petition, asking that the Mass. legislature memorialize Congress on lunching as it bad for the Irish Republic, Palestine for the Jews, and a bonus for the soldiers. Miss Martha Taylor, a white Kentucky woman, Rep. Mevers and Rep. Kidder spoke for this law and order move. The National Equal Rights League today, 15th anniversary of its being founded, issued a call to the race to promote this method before every Northern and Border legislature at once. The League states that any group or organization can frame a "joint resolve," sign up an official petition blank, to be secured at the state capitol, and seek a legislator who will introduce the petition. Branches of the League, all race bodies, and Equal Rights Committees, are organized for this purpose are urged to at once petition their state legislature to urge upon the U.S. Senate and its Judiciary Committee legislation against lunching in the form of the Dyer Bill.

Discrimination In Loop Theatre "Dastardly" Hobart Harris and Edward Woody were called to the bar in Harrison Street Court Wednesday morning to answer charges of disorderly conduct during a performance at the Colonial Theatre. As the case proceeded evidence showed that the only disorder of which the men were guilty was retaliation to surrender the stubs to their tickets, or to exhibit them to the manager, who demanded them. Harris and Woody were then removed from their seats on the main floor and placed under arrest by policemen at the request of the theatre management. The men were immediately discharged upon the presentation of this evidence. It is expected that a damage suit against the theatre will grow out of the case. The defendants were represented by Attorneys L. B. Anderson and E. H. Wright, assisted by Senator Marks, who characterized their eviction as one of the most dastardly pieces of discrimination ever witnessed in Chicago. ARE YOU GOING TO MOVE?

Kind Sir: On yesterday (Sunday, April 9) T stood in St. Paul Church and heard you make these remarks, or some oth. ers to the same effect: “that you had accepted a conference with me aiter 1 had talked with vou over the phone that during our conference I told you of a great deal of the mishandling of funds in St. Paul's Church: that, you asked me how I knew so much in so Short a time; that you made no state- fent to me in support, of a more business-like procedure in the han- dling of the financial affairs at St Paul; that I had taken matters to the defendant and left money and it was returned to me; that Mr. Harper of the defendant had stated to vou that he refused to consider my statements hecause of the charges against Rev. Winters: that you would have taken a stick and clubbed me ont of, the church # you had been in the position of Pastor 3. A. Winters; that if T used your fame further in connection with the issue of business mismanage- ment in St. Paul Church that some of your friends will get me, using an ilustration that I would suffer bodily harm. And you used many other statements in your personal attack on me and I could not reply and protect myself, My dear’ bishop, you must have a yery poor memory, of since you have so many confererices with many per- sons yout have confused vour talk with tne with that of some one else for, not- withstanding your unwarranted, bold and malicious attack on me to several hundred people when you knew 1 could not reply, I_am not yet con- vinced that Bishop R. A. Carter would wholly disregard the truth, In the first place I myself have not taken in matier to the defendant, paid no money and have not seen Mr. Harper in over six months, To refresh your I am submitting an accurate account of our conference which appointment was made by Mrs. R, A. Carter when you were out of the city and I have never talked with you over the phone, In our conference I only made a few inquiries, namely; “Do you Bishop ap- prove of the completion of St. Paul Church? Why the laxity in the build- ing program? What would Bishop Carter advise me as trustee to do to stimulate interest in the building pro- gram since the membership was very desirous of the completion of the church?” REPLIES TQ BISHOP As I came to you for the one thing, to know whether you would appro an effort of activity towards a proper and business procedure in building the church L made vo further utterances relative to St. Paul Church, but lis tened attentively to the bishop make the following statements verbatim (Bishop) “I do not know what is the matter with those folks at St. Paul, T want them to build and endeavored to help them, but Winter's friend put out the report that I wanted the money for Carter's Chapel. You ought to tell those bonchead trustees to get busy and do something. 1 never saw a board of officers, who indulged. in Such unbusiness-like arrangements The contract to build the basement to the church was the worst business transaction I ever saw.” (Give in de- tail, nature of contract which showed that the contractor who huilt the base- ment was to be given $30,000.00 for the basement and 3 per cent of all amounts to be spent in the completion of the church whether the said con- tractor completed it or someone else.) The bishop continued. “I took the contract to my lawyer and he said it was not worth the paper upon whieh it was written, You (Brother Henry) go back to the trustee board and tell those trustees before they muddle up business affairs for the church they should secure a lawyer. ‘The chief trouble at St. Paul is that they haye little or no business system and the officers, especially the trustees who have been doing the church's business have proven to be a set of boneheads.” Tam sure that when the bishop re freshes his memory that every wor'l quoted above will be vivid in his mind as well as many other statements re! ative to the said matter and that I made no further statements than those quoted. Upon the strength of these state- ments from the bishop I cheerfully went about my duty and my desire to diligently carry ont a proper business procedure which would start the build- ing and never referred to the bishop until my published article in which | stated only these words, “that Bishop Carter had given his approval to the contention of a straight-forward and juisiness procedure in the church's af fairs.” ‘The bishop and no. one else has any other true information of my references of his name. The bishop will also find that the very slight ac- quaintance which he had of nie was through some very reputable friends of his who also knew me from child- hood to be honest, upright and de- pendable. 1 refer to the Doctors Martins and Mr. and Mrs, Saunders of Memphis, Tenn, The bishop will also find out that the man he so care- lessly considered and relentlessly at- tacked was one of whom the people of Chicago have known for the past six teen years to be honest, upright and courageous in the promotion of all worthwhile movements pertaining to the betterment of our people in this city and elsewhere As regard to the charges which I made about mismanagement of churctt funds the bishop will please refer to the letter which T wrote him under date of March 29, in which 1 ex- pressed the desire to have the bishop point a way for the whole church to hear me prove these charges. Upon careful investigation the bishop will also find that the charges of nisman- agement and incompetent _business conduct is practiced at St. Paul Church and that the pastor, Rev. } \, Winters, has suppressed. this the only true issue which I have raised. The bishop will also find upon inves- tigation that in shielding and evading this issue the pastor has indulged in despotic rule and high handed means of persecution and treatment of me which is not found in Christian prac- tices and not supported by the proper interpretation of the C. M. E. disci~ pline. ‘The bishop will also recognize that his attitude to crush me aiter | had prayed to him for justice antl mercy and he had not allowed himself to become acquainted with all the fatts in the case, will not meet the approbation af a’ Christian following and others who love justice at all times. The bishop will further find out that there are some men, atid Christian men too, who will dare to tell the truth and who will attack wrongdoing in high places, even at the threat of a bishop to bluff and in timidate them and to threaten them with bodily harm, remembering the lines of the poet, “And how can man die better, Than in hgiting against odds; For the: ashes of his father~ And the temples of his God?" He will also come to know that the courts in Tilinois, (unlike those in Georgia Where the bishop hails from) can be relied upon for protection and justice even where the low is pitied against the high. The bishop will further real ize that, though his office was used to suppress the real issue in St. Pan! Church—that of mismanagement aud incompetent business methods—the people at St. Paul and elsewhere will he satisfied with nothing less than a strict accounting of the funds and financial transactions at the great St Pail Church, And abbve all the hishop must realize thé the day is now past for palliating and “big stick- THE CHICAGO WHIP 1, = | er “ Underwriters if?

A lone black mule, without bridle, harness on anything, stood munching on the tin cans and rubbish. Nosey wondered from whence he came and to whom he belonged. Soon a dark man came around the corner. He stopped, looked at the mule and said, "What you doing here, Mule?" The mule cocked his car on one side, blinked his eye and came up to the man, putting his mouth to the man's ear. The man said, "Oh, is that so? Well, come on." Taking a bottle of white liquid out of his pocket, he started off towards Dearborn Street, the mule following him closely. They disappeared in an alley together, entering a stable whose door was wile open. What that mule said to that man, Nosey does not know, but there was certainly "white mule" in that bottle which the man carried. . . . ONLY THE BEST of references are accepted now at the Gold Room. Nosey stopped in Chicago's premier cabaret de luxe the other night and almost had to produce his birth certificate to be admitted. It all happened because two 'weary' gentlemen from the South recently broke all of the golden dishes and goblits which is part of the gold service of the place. They did this after their check was presented and it showed the figures $234.60. They thought that they had better get their money's worth if they had to pay the price. Now, they only let old patrons in. --- SAMSON HAD his Debila and lose his hair, and lost his strength with the loss of his hair. One of Chicago's popular young men fared just as bad. He visited a barber's house. He partook of moonshine. The "white mule" threw him. He fell asleep. When he awoke, he was minus all of his flowing black hair and his rather big roll. He was weak from loss of blood where the clippers had dug in his scalp. He is telling his friends that a barber did the job, but Nosey knows that it was a "lady barber" who has said that she would get even with this smiling "vamp" if it took her all her life. She has done it. EVERY NOW AND THEN "society" gets its thrill. This latest thing which has made all of the ladies sit up and take notice was a knock down and drag out the tight between two of leadingest leading ladies of the smartest set. The tight followed an argument about certain remarks about the character of the other and about her activities. Before the tight started, the lady whose character had been assailed told the older lady some things about her own activities. The tight did go the required number of rounds so the winner cannot be declared, but all of the ladies present decided that they would not talk about it. Well, you know the ladies. That is how Nosey learns about it. . . . YULE-TIDE IS over but the Christmas bells still ring. Nose overhead a man telling how some Christmas bells almost runed him. It seemed as though these bells wer lying on some furniture in an armchair room. He visited the house. Was ushered quickly into the unused room, where he was to remain in silence. He stumbled up against the furniture. The bells rang—for Christmas, so they thought, but he was in hospital at the last report and another divorce suit is on. Ring on Christmas bells. Bindley C. Cyrus, undertaker, has returned to the city after a visit to his wife and daughter at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, where he also attended the unveiling of the monument to the Booker T. Washington. While at Tuskegee Mr. Cyrus has his two months' old daughter, Margaret Alice Milicent, christened by Bishop Thomas H. Demby of the Episcopal Church. The godparents are: Dr. Geo, C. Hall, godfather; Mrs. J. C. Napier, Nashville, Tenn., godmother, and Mrs. T. E. Owens, Tuskegee, sponsor. The ceremony was attended by all of the Chicago visitors and by a number of friends from all parts of the country. Mrs. Lois Mallard, prominent in Detroit social circles, has made Chicago her home. The accomplished young lady is studying chiropractics at the Rubel School. She plans to open offices here.

Mr. French was the host of the evening, and after the programme ordered the refreshment committee to come forth with a most elaborate repast, and in this manner lent great significance to the end of a perfect day. Mrs. M. T. Williams, president, and L. E. Maddox, secretary. Amateur Minstrels We can think at this writing of not treat so rare within the reach of Chicagoans as the 20th Annual Show and Dance of the Amateur Minstrel Club at the 8th Regiment Armory Easter Monday night. It looks now as though all previous records for attendance will be broken. Under the able leadership of President Lewis V. Berry the splendid line-up of last year has been augmented by the addition of several clever young stars. Among these are Balancing Roane in a slack wire act; Davenport, "lightning" moon artist, and Lawrence and White in a "Mechanical Doll" act. Clarence Lee, the inimitable singing-dancing comedian, is also in the line-up, featuring the "Barefoot Blues" in clever style. Gene Burdette, the promising young pianist, comes to the club with his own clever composition "Underneath the Southern Moon," featured by Major Jackson and the company. Among other trivets are Bobby Hardin's splendid tradition of "The Shick" with ensemble: Floyd Cardwell in "I Aint Givin' Nothin' Away" a screen as is also George Harris with "Vamoon" Liza Jane." Fat Thompson "Dapper Dan" Meredith Conley "Pullman Poster Blues" Charlie Fielding "Yo Hoo" Leonard Raone's "Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes" Charlie Settles "Better Days Will Come Again," Be Kearn-broughs "Granny", Clarence Mayo's "Free, Single and Disengaged," Geo Proctore's "Just Like a Rainbow," S Offorde Edwards "Love's Golden Lane" and Andrew Childress "Wonder If You Still Care for Me" are all clever numbers and with the splendid ensemble by the entire club composes a magnificent program worth going far to hear, and then after the show—the dance. If this is not what Chicago wants, please tell us what it does want. The entire net proceeds go to the Home for Aged Colored People.

Glenwood The Coming Cemetery of Chicago and Cook County Mount Glenwood Cemetery, located twenty-two miles south of the City Hall, between the villages of Thornton and Glenwood, contains one hundred and three acres, more or less, of land which has been improved at an expense of Two Hundred Thousand ($200,000) Dollars, which improvements consist of landscaping, macadam roadways, trees, shrubbery, three sets of ornamental iron gates, a chapel and superintendent's quarters with modern improvements. Thorn Creek runs through the cemetery, adding greatly to its natural beauty of the grounds. The cemetery is surrounded by a county forest preserve and thereby receives the benefit of the natural beauty of those tracts. The cemetery contains fifty thousand lots, of which approximately fifteen thousand have been sold, and twenty-two thousand additional lots are to be sold within a six-month period commencing February 1, 1922. The remaining lots will be divided up into single graves for single burials for the future. One-half of the cemetery has been fully developed, laid out, beautified and completed. The same work on the remaining portion will be finished in the early summer of 1922. A complete waterworks will be built and in operation about that time, for the purpose of supplying water throughout the cemetery. Lots up to and including the present time have been sold at prices ranging from $75.00 to $400.00. There were no lots sold for any less than $75.00 since the proper improvements were completed. It is now proposed by officers of the cemetery to sell the twenty-two thousand lots for the flat price of $50.00 each, instead of $75.00 and upwards, as heretofore. These lots are to be sold on the installment plan. The purchaser will pay $10.00 down upon the signing of the contract and $10.00 or more per month until the full purchase price is paid. In addition to title to the lot the purchasers shall each receive two shares of stock for each lot purchased by them, which stock is now being sold for $15.00 per share. The lot owners will have a double interest in the cemetery, that of lot owner and that of stockholder. As a part of the revenue of the company about $1.50 per year will be collected from each lot owner as a fixed expense for watering the lots and cutting the grass for the purpose of keeping the cemetery in first-class condition. This is a sum considerably less than is usually charged by other cemeteries for like services. It cannot be too strongly emphasized and borne in mind that while the cemetery is one of the most beautiful and attractive in the City of Chicago and its environs, yet the price of $50.00, not to include the stock bonus which is easily worth $30.00, represents about 25 per cent of the selling of lots in the average cemetery. Do not fail to secure one of these choice lots while they last. It is the coming Oak Woods of cemeteries in this city. Every family and householder should own a lot thereby providing for the future of our bereaved ones just as we do in everything else. Agents will call and see you upon request and furnish full information. Call the office by Phone Victory 6254 or visit our office at 3125 S. State Street. Come and select a choice lot while you can. MT. GLENWOOD CEMETERY ASSOCIATION 3125 South State Street Berean Choir Musical Last Sunday evening the Berean Choir rendered their regular monthly program at the Berean Baptist Church, 52nd and Dearborn Sts. A large and enthusiastic audience was in attendance. Hon. Willis E. Mollison was the speaker of the evening. He delivered a masterful address on "Bert Williams and Charles Gilpin. Their Influence on the American Stage." That every one was pleased was evidenced in the applause at the conclusion of his discourse. In speaking of Bert Williams, Mr. Mollison said in part: "Bert Williams was the idol of the American public. He demonstrated that one man of Negro blood stood supreme, and at his grave a nation shed bitter tears. He was a supreme genius in his line and in his role was without an equal in the world." He also paid Charles Gilpin a beautiful tribute. The following artists appeared: Dramatic reading, Mrs. J. H. Brewer; piano solo, Miss Isadora Bufford, pupil of Miss Estella C. Bonds; solo, Mrs. Priscilla Mayo. The feature of the program was a duet: Miss Edmonia Lee, mandolin; Miss Alice Lee, guitar. Each participant was forced to respond with an encore.

Bradan, pastor; Miss Helen Thomas, chairman of program committee.

Among those appearing on the program were: Daughters Eliza Jackson, state grand queen of Illinois; Serilla Jackson, Nellie Burbouge and Ida Simmons. The most excellent queen and her staff were congratulated for the splendid did showing made. Dance for Memory Trees Something out of the ordinary in the way of balls is promised the public in the Memorial ball to be held at the 8th Regt. Armory Saturday evening, April 22, 1922. The announced purpose of the ball is the procuring and planting of Memorial Trees for the men who laid down their lives on the battlefields of France. We have stood silent and idle while organization after organization of white citizens have shown grateful remembrance of the sacrifices of their soldier dead. Let us not forsake our own. It ill befits our race of all races to flagrantly neglect the young men who laid down their lives in the high hope that they were rendering a great service and force to the lips of their relatives and comrades the bitterest of all cups, death without gratitude. The ball will be one of the greatest in point of attendance staged in a great while as Col. Dunean and the Regiment as well as many prominent civic and social organizations are giving it their loyal support. Besides there are few persons comprising the mass of the general public who has not a vivid recollection of some comrade or relative who did not return. The first trees will be planted in front of the 8th Regiment Armory with fitting dedication services. It is hoped later to extend these trees along Giles Ave, and the prominent boulevards. Tickets will be on sale at the Appotomax Club, Vinecines Hotel, Wallgreen's Drug Store, Porter's Drug Store, Stobail & Hudson's, Avenue Theatre, Colonial Barber Shop, Roosevelt Pharmacy, Human Drug, The Art Barber Shop and the Giles Post or the American Legion. All officers and enlisted men will attend in uniform. Gold Star Mothers will be signally honored. It is requested by Sergeant D. L. Jones and S. H. Smith, the conductors, that they register their names before the occasion. Wife Hacks Taylor Morris Taylor, 27, 2008 Federal St. was cut on the legs. April 7 in a fight with his wife.

Y.W.C.A.News One problem of the outlook of the world today is International Peace. This problem is one of vital concern for the entire human family. Many writers and seers are giving their best thought and efforts to this issue. The Young Women's Christian Association representing over 44 nations stands out as a challenge today in helping to bring about this "Great World Peace." The greatest proof of this religious consciousness today is being manifested by the program of the Young Women's Christian Association through its world fellowship and other activities. Many people come to the shrine of our Divine Master, to learn of Him and His teachings and from this ensemble go away with a soul fired by the truth from His word. Since the purpose of the Association is to associate young women in personal loyalty to Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, to promote Christian character and service through mental, moral, social and spiritual training; and to become a social force for the extension of the Kingdom of God. Can't you appreciate more conscientiously the workers in this uniting struggle of Christian service. Indiana Avenue Branch invites you to see the work of the girl of least opportunity which is represented by the Industrial Department.

Howard To Have Both Varsity And Freshman Team WASHINGTON, D. C., April 15.—For some time candidates for the Varsity and Freshman baseball teams have been at work and from all appearances. Howard will be able to put to toph a most representative baseball team this year. Already from the battery candidates the Varsity team is sure of five good pitchers, three left-handers and two right-handers. For catchers the Varsity will have two men from last year and a number of promising receivers. The outfield has a pair of nucleus from last year to work around and with the acquisition of the new men who are showing promise will round out strongly. The outfield is causing considerable worry as the outfield material is very poor in their field work. Among the prospects for the team are some very good batters and all in all the Varsity team may be expected to be up to the usual standard.

THE WORLD OF SPORTS CHAMPION GIANTS HOME FOR SUNDAY Ancient Fox Rogers Parks Will Bat the Foster Crew in Oneness. By DAVE WYATT Fresh from diamond conquests in the Southland, the American Giants champions of the big colored league and monarchs of all baseball territory, among Darks, extending from Chicago to Gotham, Havana. New Orleans and what not got back to taw this week. The men under Foster encountered but little difficulty in shaking off the advances waged by the Crescent and Cuban Stars at New Orleans this spring, the series of preparing set to serving the prime purpose to acclimatize. The boys are airing at hold front and every mother's son shows in the pink. The Chicago club went through the being exhibition title with an en precaution season blue gets into full galley. Malarcher, D. Moiss and others will be doing stunts at the same old shade. Rockwith, the lad of boundless hunting fame, has been holding down the first back and incidentally hitting like a head. Jerelies' endeavor of the former of the Joe green force, has been setting a pace at third that notes. Newtwick and Holtz of the St. Louis club no doubt, will be returned to their base, so there is a possibility of the Windy City fans fanning an infield of Rockwith, 1b, D. Moiss 2h, Malarcher or Johnine George's infield of Rockwith 3b, Gardener Lyons, Torrentettes and Reece will do the outpost work again this season with Jim Brown and "Pep" Dixon shock-absorbing the heavy slants and rolls of Dave Brown, Lieut. Johnson, Rice, Windworth and Ed Rile. Star Slahmen A start at the champion's artillery force, indicate brave and consistent shooting at the enemy this year. Johnson is not only one of the most dependable pitcher's of the Foster staff, but he is a steady and consistent writer as his record shows; he knows how to pitch. The prowess of Dave Brown is truly established the kingpin of them all about its "Lefty." The dire deeds of Whitworth are well in caused within the memory of the fans, and Walt is said to have retained all that wonderful pitching form that in the past had him the idol of all fans. Big Ed Rile is not oll to the fans of the circuit; he certainly is not next. Rile is a big hunky youngster batting from Columbus, O. He wields a night's right arm and swings a mea-bar. In 1920 pitching for Taylor, A. B. C., Rile went three straight games, two in one day, against the American giants and was not defeated. The first game his blow won it in the tenth 1.0 against Dawn Brown. The second game he tied, 2.2. The third went ten innings 8.8. With the Columbus BucKEYS last season, Rile冠中 nine straight games. Rogers Parks The Foster Club has encountered all sorts of tough propositions but topped them all off and did it with ease and grace. But the Rogers Parks are their nemesis. They have been preaching at this North side aggregation for some seasons with about even results. In fact the Rogers have a shade on the Dark champs. The closed schedule and bad weather prevented the scrap last season, but to go back to 1920, we find that the Rogers won two of three, one game by the score of 1.0. The American Giants opener Sunday should bring out a fierce season with Foster unleashing that formidable bunch of hurlers against the wealth of ex-b league sharp shooters that the Rogers will extract from the Windy City's great supply. HOWARD IN HARD TRAINING FOR PENN RELAY WASHINGTON, D. C., April 15. The Howard University Varsity and Freeman track teams are making great preparation for the coming Penn Relay Games to be held on Franklin Field at the University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, Pa., on April 28th and 29th, 1922. The teams will be composed of eleven men who are to compete in two different events. Last year the Varsity Relay Team was successful in winning the event in which it was entered. This year Howard has been entered in a faster class by the authorities in charge of the Penn Meet and will be competing against such schools as the University of Pittsburgh, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Notre Dame, Boston College, and a number of other colleges in that class. The coaches at Howard realize that they must put forth every effort to have the men in thorough condition for the entrées. The Freshman Relay Team to be entered in the Meet is doing exceptional work and the time being made by the team compares favorably with that of the Varsity Team. Howard is also entering a man in the Hammer throw, the Javelin and Discus throw. This man has remarkable ability in these three events and it is expected that he will win at least one of his events and place in each of them. His work with the hammer is close to 165 feet at each throw and TALLADEGA WINS ONE, LOSES ONE Atlanta, Ga., April 7, 1922:—Talladega lost the second game of the series with Morris-Brown University here today 6—5, which was quite a disappointment after their brilliant victory yesterday of 9—0. Yesterday's game was one of the most interesting and exciting games ever played in the metropolis of the South and Lockhart, Talladega's super-pitcher, was easily the hero of the day. Although backed to the limit by a team that bids fair to be the best Talladega has put in the field in many years, it was Lockhart who in a large degree, held the former champions of all Negro baseball scoreless by his wonderful twirling ability. Otherwise, the telegram of Talladega's manager to the college just after the game sums up the high spots of the game briefly: "In first innning Harris trapped with two men on and later was scored himself. Talladega knocked out two Morris-Brown pitchers. Spencer's peg to second was like a rifle shot. Twice, in the fourth and eighth innings with a man on second and one on third and no outs, Lockhart pulled out of the hole in fine style, retiring the side. 3 base hits—Harris one; 2 base hits—Tremble two; home runs—Tremble one; struck out by Lockhart 11 men; hits off Lockhart 2; All Atlanta is strong for T. C." Because of the soreness of "Bill White's arm, Talladega's veteran pitcher, who was to pitch today's game, Edwards' football star, had to be put in the box. Having had but one year's experience on the mound, he could not put up the showing that Lockhart had, the day before, and after yielding 5 runs on 4 hits, Lockhart was put in again in the fourth inning. He held Morris-Brown to one additional run which was just one more than the Talladega boys could overcome in a batting rally in the last of the game. The team returned home today to fitness for the second series of the season with Tuskogee on the home diamond next week, April 13 and 14. Talladega Grove, c. f. Childs, 1b. Gordon, 2b. Harris, r. f.

LANGFORD GOES DOWN BEFORE YOUNGSTER LANGFORD GOES DOWN BEFORE YOUNGSTER James "But" Jackson of Washington Court House, Ohio, bested "Tham" Langford, the Boston Mauler, in five rounds, at Dayton last Thursday, before a fair crowd that simply raved with disapproval over the retreer's decision. The fight lasted five stanzas and even though it is admitted that Sam was getting the worst of the argument at the time of its abrupt ending, it is believed that Langford was by no means "out." In fact most of the critics argue that Tham was getting stronger as the fight progressed and that most anything was likely to happen. Langford was down twice in the third round, on the second knockdown he tumbled through the ropes, but was sitting on the edge of the ring platform. "He had hardly hit the floor when the timekeeper started to ring the gong the round was over. The referee did not hear the gong and counted Sam off, held up Jackson's hand declaring him the winner, a riotous scene ensued and after several minutes of arguing the referee decided to let the fight go on. Jackson and Langford were in a clinch in the fifth round. Blood was flowing on both sides, and Sam was getting the worst of some spirited rallies. In said clinch Langford took a sock at Tat, the blow landing in the chin neighborhood. They were batting with one arm free, which is perfectly fair according to the rules, but the referee decided Sam had committed a foul, giving the decision to Jackson for the second time in one battle. According to Jim Mullen, Langford's manager, following the knockdown in the third round Jackson's manager offered him 500 berries if he would take Langford out, and allow a Jackson K'O.

BLACKBURN GETS DECISION OVER RESPRESS The hopes of Calvin Respress South American Mauler was given a severe setback Thursday afternoon when the referee awarded Jack Blackburn the decision in their ten-round setto Elgin. The light was fast and interesting, both men showing well. But Blackburns craftiness was too much for the foreigner. The referee rightfully awarding the decision to the former. The result was a grave disappointment to the Respress supporters, who entertained hopes of getting more important bouts for the future, based on his showing in this bout. No knockdowns were scored; Blackburn weighing 162, and Respress, 197. 150 feet for the Javelin and 154 feet for the Discus. Much interest is being exhibited in the coming meet and everyone is expecting Howard's representatives to make a good showing for the University. THE CHICAGO WHIP Bv E A Lanier Line-Up: SPORTIVELY PEAKING You cannot make your shimmie shake on tea. Nor do the men object to seeing the flapper's knee; But if you want your eyes closed. Stand on Michigan Boulevard as the After admitting that Langford's blinkers are on the blink, a scribble says: "I cannot see where San touled Jackson." Wonder if he is still speaking of eyes? Some people speak of love because they haven't anything else to do. Others speak it cause they know it isn't true; A few mention it just to be in line. But the average flapper uses that jive all the time. The only difference between Dempsey and a Turtle is: A Turtle jump into the stream to avoid the rain, while Dempsey jumps over the pond to avoid "Darkness." A fair one speaking of the Giants sojourn in the southland says: "I know the poor boys will be all tanned from sunburn." Will someone please page Gans? "Tut" Jackson has 41 knockouts in 41 fights, but he has nothing on Judge Landis. The judge took five weeks of honoring from the "Babe with a five week homer." Wills and Tate go ten rounds to a draw. Wills hurts his hand in Norfolk tight. Tate hurts his in Langford tight, which is further proof that the boys are evenly matched. Our suggestion to Wills is: See that Dempsey signs泵 for Labor Day battle or follow him across the pond, for Europeans are not going to let the champ gather in all their coin as champion, with Harry justly questioning his claim to same. Wills and Tate may have fought twoights for a single purse, but they have nothing on Jackson and Langford as "Tut" beat sam twice in the same battle. Scoring a K'O in the third and getting a decision in the titth. DEMPSEY AND WILLS The arrest thing along right row is the Dempsey-Wills battle, that is settled, the fight will take place Labor Day at Boyle's thirty acres, you can put that in your pipe and smoke it. Dempsey is going abroad and expects to pick up lots of loose change on theatrical tours, Kearns also plans to have him spank Europe's best, an easy task for the champion for every one realizes that Carpenter, who is the best of the "Overtherc" lot is an easy mark for Dempsey, while the rest is all taboo. There is some talk of Dempsey meeting Wills on the other side of the pond, this, of course, is well planned publicity, Jack is not thinking of such and in all probability never has. However, there are a few things of importance that contricts the champ at first. First of all he realizes that a Wills meeting is inevitable, and that Harry is no set-up, he also knows that it beaten his money coming days are over. It would certainly be a reflection on Kearns' management should he allow his protege to cut his money-making chances in half or less by meeting a man that is in every way his equal before the time is ripe, so my dear readers do not allow your minds to become uselessly overtaxed with the thought of Dempsey losing his crown on foreign soil, the fight, as aforestated will be on this side and in Jersey City. Now you may dub us self-styled prophet, magician or what not for saying Dempsey never intended fighting. Wills across the pond, nevertheless it is true, Dempsey has made lots of money, probably more than any other champion, but he has likewise spent more through law suits, income tax, etc., than any other battler. It is our belief that Kearns intends to have Dempsey gather in all he can through exhibitions abroad, until July 4, fight Carpenter on that date, collect some more easy money showing himself before returning to do battle with Wills on Labor Day. According to a certain well-known daily sport writer, the referee, and not Jackson beat Sam Langford at Dayton last Thursday, the critic in defense of Langford had this to say of the referee: "Langford lost to Tutt Jackson in five rounds, but was the victim of the rawest and rankest bit of refereeing it was ever our privilege to see." He also says: "Old Sam lost in the fifth round, so Capt, Claude Capt, Snyder may be a dandy army Snyder may be dandy army man and man and a fine captain, but as a referee he has missed his calling. This article was intended for that particular fight, but we honestly believe that it could be applied to at least one other fight and with the same fairness. Now we insert the above paragraphs to show some of the things our boys must contend with, and in conclusion we say to Wills, come on Harry we are with you, let us pray that you are not a victim of similar circumstance in your coming battle with Dempsey.

WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. “BOY” ORATORS ~Some speakers who have been in the limelight for the last ten or fifteen years are still advertising themselves as “Boy Orators”” and Boy Wonders. Why they wish to deceive the public it is hard to understand. The world today is looking for men. Napoleon at the age of twenty-six was placed at the head of the best troops that France ever had and nobody ever heard of him boasting of being the boy general. We have a few young men who have waxed into maturity for whom we have the utmost respect, but the world would respect them more if they would lay off the grandstand play of being Boy Orators and Infantile Wonders. We want these boy wizards to reach manhood before they die of old age. Those beautiful stately mansions that we visualize up in the skies thru the haze of dreams and the wild flights of imagination do not aid us much in solving our problems here on earth. Vision is a splendid thing and men with visions as a rule are the men who build up the earth. We as a race have made the mistake of draw- ing our visions in the skies and not down here where we mortals suffer and toil. We as human beings are sadly in need of some of the serviceable earthly structures that other practical visionaries have secured. We need to build some mansions here in America and particularly in Chicago. If we can’t build towering mansions and sky scrapers we can at least build a modern office building. The “mansions built so stately in the skies” cannot be reached until we cross the “river Styx”? and none of us seem anxious to make the journey thru the bleakness of the valley of the shadow. In a southern town, whose black population is not nearly so large as here in Chicago they have built an eight story office build- ing accomodating over five hundred professional and business men. This structure is equipped with all modern appliances including ele- vators. It has been a huge financial success. In Chicago the black people have over fifteen hundred businesses and over five hundred professional men, yet no first class office building is owned and con- trolled by them and we cannot point with pride to any stately struc- ture that has reared its lofty head thru the financial genius and handi- craft of black men. Our only mansions are those which we have raised thru the fantastic creations of “moon calfs’’ and false prophets. If it is true that the credit houses of repute record the five hundred thousand-dollar limit to three black men and the two hun- dred and fifty thousand-mark to six more, then these men have not only been financially, slothful and indolent, but they have not awakened to their full capabilities in aiding their fellow men. White citizenry contends for subways, good roads, palatial hotels and colossal superstructure while the lethargic black people contend for larger churches and more beautiful mansions in the skies. If the down trodden race of ours is desirous of winning recog- nition in the economic affairs of men they had better get down on earth. The eyes of America are turned upon Chicago. To black people it is the land of Elysian fields. They yearn for its advan- tages and pray that thru its good graces that their burdens will be lightened. Chicago they believe is “where perhaps some beauty lies, the cynosure of neighboring eyes.” Chicago can be made to satisfy their hopes if the black people here will be racially con. scious enough to pool their interests and unite their capital. Divine hands will mold and form the mansions in the skies but human hands, and human courage must build the serviceable structures that accommodate men on earth and give them pride tc point to. A first class office building in Chicago is one of the need: of the black people here on earth. Let’s get busy. It is claimed by the general public of Chicago that Mayot Thompson has bought and paid for the black voters. The Mayor's reversal of form at the polls‘on Tuesday and the independent spirit that was manifested by the black voters proves decisively that they are no longer to be fooled. If the Republican faction, which seems to be assuming the leadership in State and City affairs, makes a strong bid for the black voters they will receive favorable consideration. The better class of citizens in Chicago want clean govern- ment and the vice immunity system of politics destroyed. If the patronage is equitably divided without prejudice, the black people will prove beyond the shadow of a reasonable doubt that they are not bought and paid for and that Mayor Thomp. son has not secured a mortgage on their souls. = THE Chee Wie MY mm mm wa aa Nr OR LA, bom ota TAHA HEALTH HINTS || By Dr, Troy Smith red chest protector a bag of asafetida Jabout their uceks and three or four |suits of heavy underwear on their |bodies to succumb, more readily to an aitack of common cold than it is tor an individual who wears B.

This rule applies to Mis- sionaries as well as laymen. It is said that the ruling class of whites are afraid that the native black men will be filled with the wild dreams of freedom and liberty. America is not the only place that the black man is subjugated and if the truth was told the fact that the black man is the world’s door mat would be revealed. There is still great work to be accomplished by Treaty Makers. It is a great pity that our greatest newspapers, great in power but _weak in principle, do not have any interest that they will not sell out. In the recent election one great paper posing as the ‘“‘pro- tector and the defender” of the people refused to publish facts re- garding the acts of one of the candidates for County Treasurer. These acts were so flagrant and so offensive that even the most reactionary of our politicians refused their support.

He compares the Nordic with the Mediter rajieass tares, and finds that the Nordic, his own race, 1s the better qualified the fo. Especially he emphasizes her tenacity and. her assertiveness These qualities make her the great conqueror, and he speaks with enthusiasm of her rule in India. One is reminded in reading the book of Lothrop Stod dard’s, “Rising Tide of Color.” Both writers show the same fear at the vireatened downfall of the white man’s present. civilization, Hew to Strengthen if, is McDougall's question, and fis answer is by adding more assertive and tenacious people th the population by the careful breeding of selected types This can be done by subsidizing selected families as they bring forth children, Twas in London when ant International Committee on Eugenics was meeting at Dublin and I remember reading a witty account of their proceedings. ‘They were described as spending their days in en deavoring to find out how best to reproduce a race that should be indis- tinguishable from the members of their own Committee.

It is that the psychological tests: he often quotes that are given so commonly now to children, and that. are used in rating ability, be arranged by very divergent types of people. Let us have the North American Indian, for instance, whom Prof. MeDougall of course finds stupid, devise tests for the sons and daugthers of Harvard pro fessors. tests such as the Indian would want his child to pass; let the Negro with his extraordinary musical ability and deep artistic spirit, set the tests for the child of the Nordic race.
