GIVE AWAY ANOTHER AUTO! Mosby Confesses He Helped Murder Girl JOIN THE N.A.A.C.P. NOW PRICE 5 CENTS GIVE Mosby ADMITS HIS PART IN MURDER State's Attorneys Grill Complete Confession From Roche's "Handy Man" Russell Mosby is reported to have made a full confession Tuesday to Assistant State's Attorneys John Sbarbaro and Charles Wharton telling how he and Thomas Roche, white street car conductor, together killed Anna Cogwell, white, a woman of the streets, and later threw her body into an abandoned moving van in a vacant lot at 3726 Cottage Grove Ave. The body was found Friday by two boys, who immediately gave the alarm. A trail of crushed weeds led to the home of the conductor. Indications were that the body had been dragged from his apartment. Implicates Moseby Upon being arrested, Roche implicated Russell Moseby, variously employed as janitor, cook, and handy man in the building where Roche lived. Roche admitted killing the girl, but also claimed that Moseby assisted him. Moseby told the police that when he went to the Roche apartment Wednesday evening the girl was dead, and that Roche said he had killed her by a blow on the head from a pistol. He said that when he attempted to leave Roche threatened to kill him unless he stayed and helped dispose of the body. After the body had been in the apartment all day, they dragged it out Thursday night and threw it into the empty moving van. "Picked Her Up" After severe grilling Roche admitted that he had "picked the girl up" on the streets because he was lonely at home. His wife had been sent to a hospital a few days before. Upon arriving at the apartment the girl became intoxicated, he says, and beat herself with a revolver she found in a dresser, ending by drinking the contents of a vial, which he supposed to be poison. No traces of poison were found in the dead girl's body, however. He also told the police that when Moseby came to the apartment and found the girl there, he began scuffling with her, and struck her several times. This Moseby stoutly denied, declaring the girl was dead when he arrived. When he asked Roche (Continued on page 3.)

RUSSELL MOSBY SHOPPERS FLEE RAIN OF BULLETS Man Runs Wild With Gun In Busy Street, Shoots His Wife TOLEDO, Ohio, April 29.—A thousand people scurried hastily to cover at noon Saturday in the downtown district when Herman McNorton of Swanton, Ohio, ran amuck with an automatic pistol on Madison Avenue. The street was filled with Saturday shoppers and general pandemonium prevailed. Shoots Wife As hundreds watched, McNorton sent two bullets into the body of his wife as she walked at his side. He then fled from the scene pursued by police and pedestrians, peppering parked automobiles as he ran. His wife is in a serious condition at a hospital, and not expected to live. As the crowd took up the general chase in pursuit of the crazed man, he was finally brought down by two bullets in the leg. Several women bystanders fainted, and one woman, driving an electric car, in order to avoid running down McNorton, drove her car into a crowd at the curb.

Lynch Law Must Go, Is Slogan "Lynch Law Must Go," is the slogan of the Spring Drive of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, opening Monday, April 24, and culminating in an anti-Lynching conference in Newark, N. J., from June 18 to 23. The entire weight of the Association's forces, throughout the United States, is to be applied in an organized pressure toward the enactment by the Senate of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, H. R. 13, already passed by the House of Representatives. There is no doubt felt in the National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. that President Harding will sign the measure if and when the Senate enacts it. In fact, the President's signature is looked upon as a foregone conclusion. The N. A. A. C. P. campaign on the Dyer Bill has already been begun in two states, Michigan and New Jersey, where local elections are made to hinge on that issue. Colored voters and the press throughout the country are being asked to make it clear that the Republican Party will be held responsible for non-performance of its duty and its pledge to pass some such legislation as the Dyer Bill. Secretary Johnson's Statement In opening the N. A. A. C. P. Spring Drive, James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the Association, said: "The Dyer Bill was passed in the House of Representatives because colored people in the United States worked together for that end. It will be passed in the Senate for the same reason. "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People believes that the Dyer Bill is an excellent object lesson in the value of working together.

PROFESSOR OUTRAGED STUDENTS Maryland Teacher Skips Bail After Arrest For Serious Offense BALTIMORE, Md., April 29.—Police of all eastern cities have been asked to be on the lookout for Wilson S. Leigh, who has skipped bond on an indictment charging him with serious offenses against young boys. Leigh, who is supervisor for Howard County schools, was indicted after an investigation made by the Rev. T. P. Thomas, a Methodist minister of Cookesville, where the supervisor resided. After the minister had completed his investigations, he turned the information over to a grand jury which indicted Leigh on allegations of perverted practice with George Dorsey and James Johnson, Jr., two school-boys. A sensation resulted when it became known that a bench warrant had been issued. The supervisor was taken to the Elliott County jail. After lying in jail several days, friends arranged his bond. When the case came up for trial last week, Leigh was missing. He has not been heard of since. Professor Leigh was appointed supervisor about five years ago. He is regarded as an educator of ability, and was active in the work of the Maryland State Teachers' Association.

Seizure of Haiti Unconstitutional Say 24 Lawyers WASHINGTON, D. C., April 29. —Charges that the seizure by the United States of the Republic of Haiti is "in violation of our constitution, our treaties, and of international law" and constitutes "usurpation of power" through "mere executive action unauthorized by Congress," were made to Secretary of State Hughes late today by a joint delegation of eminent lawyers and the representatives of several national organizations, all of which urge the restoration of self-government to the Haitian people and the immediate withdrawal of our military forces. Attorneys Louis Marshall of New York, Moorfield Storey of Boston and Michael Francis Doyle of Philadelphia, prominent conservative leaders of the American Bar, presented the report signed by twenty-four lawyers, many of whom are of national and international reputation, which reviews the law and facts and condemns the occupation as a violation of the "honor and good name of the United States." The report was issued by the Foreign Policy Association of New York. Among other signers are: Frederick A. Henry of Cleveland, former judge of the Ohio Court of Appeals; Frederick Bausman of Seattle, former justice of the Washington Supreme Court: John P. Grace, mayor of Charleston, S. C.; William H. Byrnes of New Orleans; Nelson Spencer, president of the City Club of New York City; Jerome S. Hess of New York; Alfred Bettman of Cincinnati, former special assistant U.

Awards for All In accordance with The Whip's policy in events of this kind, the grand prize distribution is so arranged that every one will be handsomely rewarded—you cannot lose. Every moment of your spare time will be paid for by this paper just exactly as announced elsewhere. A $1,570 Prize Someone who is reading this announcement will soon be the proud owner of a brand new $1,570 automobile which is certainly ample compensation for collecting votes in your spare time. Others will receive large cash prizes and everybody, in accordance with the rules, will be paid directly in proportion to the spare moments used. Prizes Given for Votes Everyone of the fine prizes included in The Whip's gigantic gift distribution are to be awarded in exchange for votes. The Whip's prizes cannot be bought. Votes alone will be the deciding factor in determining who shall be the owner of the $1,570, as well as the many hundreds of dollars in cash prizes. There are only two ways to secure votes. One is by clipping out the 100 vote free coupons which appear in every issue. But the second and faster way to get votes is by having your friends give you their subscriptions to The Whip. New and renewal subscriptions count exactly the same number of votes. More Votes Now Right now 30,000 votes are given for a yearly subscription. Later, however, you only receive 20,000 votes for a one-year subscription. So you see, it will pay you to get busy at once if you intend to be numbered among the many people who will receive awards from The Whip. Even the free vote coupons will be reduced to a lesser number of votes in a very short time. Campaign Begins Now The campaign is now ready to begin. To secure complete details or to have your questions answered, you must get in touch with the campaign manager at The Whip office, 3420 South State Street, or telephone Victory 4006.

The printed vote coupons appearing in the paper each week must be voted before the expiration date appearing thereon. No statement or promise made by any solicitor, agent or candidate varying from the rules and statements published through this paper will be recognized by the publisher.

So it is a plan that works both ways and for the good of all concerned. Let it be understood at the very beginning that this is, not a "beauty" or "popularity" contest but it is strictly a competitive proposition for enterprising men and women, boys and girls. One big feature is that "Everybody Wins"—there are no losers. The plan of the campaign is the fairest and squareest imaginable and it is fully outlined in this announcement. The first step, in order to share in this mammoth distribution of costly awards is to clip and mail the Nomination Blank on Page 1, of this issue. Fill in your name and address and mail or deliver to the Campaign Department of The Chicago Whip, 3420 State Street, Chicago. The coupon entitles you or the person you nominate 5,000 votes. These votes are given you as a starter and speed you on your way to win. The next step is to call on, phone or write the Campaign Department for a free outfit, consisting of a special receipt book, sample copies of the paper and other information relative to the campaign. Thus equipped, you have but to go to your friends and neighbors, relatives and acquaintances and have them clip the free coupons from their papers and pay up a subscription to The Chicago Whip through you. THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT. However, you must make the start. Anything worth having is worth striving for. So, plan your campaign—get busy at once and let no one discourage you. A few short weeks and you may be riding around in your own car. It takes votes to win and votes are secured in two ways. First, by clipping the coupons in each issue of The Chicago Whip. Begin gathering them now. Very soon these coupons will be reduced to a lesser number of votes. The only restriction on the voting coupons is that they must be voted at Campaign Headquarters before the expiration date printed thereon. Get your friends to save these coupons for you—they all count. The other and faster way to get votes is by securing new and renewal subscriptions to The Chicago Whip. On each subscription turned in in a certain number of votes are issued, the number depending to the amount paid and during which "period" the subscriptions are received (See Schedule of Votes Below). So, you see, the more subscriptions you secure and the quicker you get them the more votes you will get and the better your chances are for capturing the Grand Capital Prize automobile. The advantages of an early start are apparent. Not only do you have the full SIX WEEKS in which to secure the winning votes, but from now up until June 4th, you will receive the greatest number of votes for every subscription you secure. Then, too, the first in the field will get the 'cream' of the votes and subscriptions, while those who put off entering will take what is left. Don't lose valuable time waiting to see what NOW and show the "other fellow" how to do it. Be sure tat your nomination is in RIGHT AWAY.

C., April 29.—Following receipt of letters from all over the state, Governor Morrison of North Carolina has commuted the death sentence of Wright Rouse, aged, feeble, deceitful, and rheumatic murderer of Will Whitley, white. Letters Poured In Letters from every part of the state poured in to the governor, saying that the self-respect of the state itself was involved in sending the aged victim of Mrs. Whitley's and her "lover" accomplice's scheming to the chair. And the pressure brought to bear by these outside sources literally forced the state executive to hand down his final decision. Four respites were given the condemned man before the death sentence was finally commuted to "life." The most powerful appeal in behalf of the condemned man came from the commonwealth's attorney, who prosecuted all three defendants. Mrs. Whitley and Tom Hays got off with penitentiary sentences. The jury found the aged colored man guilty of first degree murder. Murder Is Reviewed The crime for which Rouse was convicted was naturally a sordid one, with nothing of a colorful nature attached to it. One night, while Will Whitley lay sleeping in his barn, the aged man crept up to him and shot him at close range. His first tale of being forced to "shoot" in the direction of a white man by four white men was not believed. Investigation followed and the truth began to leak out. It appeared that Mrs. Sarah Whitley was in love with one Tom Hays. Whitley was in the way. Playing upon his merits as a doctor, and further enticing him with an offer of considerable money if he got Whitley "out of the way," the aged man was employed. He carried out his part of the program, but the money was not forthcoming. He squealed, and the sordid, tarnished, details were brought to light. The jury returned a first degree verdict against Rouse. Mrs. Whitley and Will Hays got off with second degree murder, and were sentenced to the limit of the law—thirty years. Mrs. Whitley's sex undoubtedly saved her. Before Rouse could be brought to the state prison, sentiment for the commutation began to manifest itself and thousands of persons, mostly white family immanded the governor with letters. "HANDY MAN" MOSBY. MAKES CONFESSION (Continued from page 1.) why he killed the girl, Roche is said to have replied: "I don't know why I did it, but I'll lay you out as dead as she if you try to get out of here and leave us." Until he made his confession Monday, police were disinclined to believe that Moseby was implicated in the actual killing of the girl. Inquest over her body was to be held Wednesday at the Stanton Ave. station.

Put Children Out Of School; Doubt They're White JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 29.—Mr. Lewis R. Salis has just succeeded in getting a mandamus against Dr. Hathaway, superintendent of Public Instruction and the Board of Instruction, compelling them to readmit his children to Arlington school or answer the reason why. His three children, Clara, 11 years old; Gladis, 9 years old, and Lewis R., Jr., 6 years old, were attending the Arlington school until parents of other children made complaint that these three were not white. According to Florida law if an individual has more than one-eighth of blood other than white he cannot be classified as white. Mr. Salis' argument was that he himself was of Minorca descent but seven-eighths white, his wife was a full blooded white person, and that therefore his children had less than one-eighth of blood other than white and had a right to attend the school. (The Minorcans are the inhabitants of Minorca, one of the Baleare Islands located in the Mediterranean the north of Africa and east of Spain. The Minorcans have a considerable infusion of African blood.) The officials insisted that the children were "not considered white" and should not attend Arlington school.

B. N. Henningham, beaten in the town of Winder, Georgia, on a charge of "preaching Catholicism" to the colored people there. Mr. Henningham's statement has been forwarded to the British Ambassador at Washington, Sir Auckland Geddes, as Henningham is a citizen of the British West Indies; also to the United States Departments of State and Justice. Mr. Henningham's statement follows: Attack made upon Rev. B. N. Henningham, pastor of Bushes Chapel, A. M. E. Zion Church, located at Winder, Ga., by twelve or fourteen masked white men. They came to a colored man's home by the name of Oscar Bergamy, where I, Rev B. N, Henningham, was giving him elementary training, about 8 o'clock p. m., March 6th, 1922, seized me without a moment's warning, dragged me from the house bareheaded and placed me in an automobile and drove me about ten miles toward Gainesville, Ga. While on the way I asked them what I had done to be punished. They answered me by holding a pistol on me and slapping me in the face, stating, we will tell you what you have done. Your damn Bishop came here preaching Catholicism and got away before we could get him. Then he sent you here with your Catholic doctrine and educating these damn Negroes, making them worse. When we get through with you your Bishop and no one else will come here preaching that damn Catholic stuff. When they reached about the ten mile point they took me out of the automobile and carried me into the woods, stripped me of my pants, placed me over a log and beat me with something like a leather stron until one of them said that was enough. Then they made me get up and told me to run and not look back or they would kill me. I was compelled to walk eight miles back to the home of one of my members through a heavy rain storm bareheaded. They robbed me of the money I had, which was $9.75 and took my clerk book, my testament and other articles. On March 7, 1922, I went to some of my members and they raised money to help me get out of Winder. I am a Methodist and know but very little about any other doctrine and have no cause to preach Catholicism to my people. No one, white or colored, in Winder can testify that I have ever done a thing of the kind since I have been pastoring there. I feel that it is one of the greatest outrages ever perpetrated on my life. I am from the British West Indie Islands, Kingston, Jamaica. Yours truly, B. N. Heningham.

Major Betts is now on duty with his battalion. The officers of the regiment were served a luncheon by the ladies of the Red Cross on Wednesday, April 26th. This unit is under the leadership of Mrs. Florence Jones. Too much praise cannot be given her on the wonderful work that she has done in the way of making it pleasant for the soldier boys. The organization of the regimental baseball clubs are under way and it looks as if there will be several good teams this season.

Washington was amazed and disgusted Easter Sunday and Monday to find signs "For Colored Only," and "For White Only" designating certain sections of Rock Park for picnics for the two races. An investigation was made, and it was found that Col. C. O. Sherrill, a Harding appointee, was responsible for the placing of the signs. Sherrill has charge of all federal buildings and grounds in the district. He is a southerner and is said on other occasions to have attempted segregation in public places. After a strong protest, the objectionable signs were removed. Man Kills Stepson With Rifle Bullet INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 29.—Robert W. Chambers was fatally shot by his stepfather, Ruius Johnson, in a rifle battle last week at their home, 353 West 26th Street. The trouble is said to have started when Johnson entered the house, and after an argument with his wife, Chambers' mother, threatened her life. As he left the house after the quarrel, he is said to have fired back through the window at her. The bullet struck Chambers behind the ear. The wounded man's brother, William Chambers, then seized a revolver and followed Johnson, firing at him. Johnson escaped, but was later captured by a squad of policemen who were seeking him.

Last Sunday evening the solo, "Fear Not Ye, O Israel," Dudley Buck, sung by Professor Taylor was a treat to the packed house that turned out. This was Professor Taylor's first time to sing a solo since his connection with Walters, for he always prefers to let his choir members sing whenever it can be arranged. We had Mrs. Martha E.

This company, composed of singers and players who make Black Swan records and who have been on tour for over five months, attracted so much attention that the New Orleans Daily Item, one of the largest white dailies in the South, engaged the Company to sing and play their famous jazz number, "Down Home Blues," and other songs, over the radiophone through the New Orleans broadcasting station. The concert was heard in five states and in Mexico and thousands of radio fans listened to a colored girl sing through the air. Miss Waters, who has broken many records on this trip, adds another star to her laurels by being the first colored girl to sing over the radio. She was accompanied by the Black Swan Jazz Masters under the direction of F. H. Henderson, Jr. "The Devil's Pawn" At the Vendome Theatre, Sunday, April 30, Pola Negri in "The Devil's Pawn."

Buy this Cigarette and Save Money BROWN IN FINE FORM; WINS 11-0 By Al Monroe With Dave Brown, Andrew Ruhe's bantam southpaw, working in midseason form, and the rest of the Foster burelings showing a similar disposition the American Giants experienced little trouble in defeating the Sixth Army Corps from Ft. Sheridan, Sunday afternoon at Schorlings Park, 39th and Wentworth Ave., before a large crowd. The score was eleven to none. Brown had the Samuels eating from his hands from the very start. He did not allow a single runner to get as far as second base, struck out ten and permitted only two hits, both of which were made by McCarthy, hostile left fielder, the first coming in the initial frame and the second, last, final only, and what not, coming to the seventh, almost a whole game apart. The Giants coped in the very first stanza when after Brown had disposed of the visitors by making Lemke roll out, struck out the next two men, Gardner, first up in the home half, was safe on Lemke's error, stole second, took third on DeMoss' sacrifice. Lyons rouled to Miller, but Torreitiit started the day's homboundary by polling a terrific smash over McCarhy's head for the circuit, scoring Gardner ahead of him. J. Brown went out, Hespen to Walsh. The Giants counted again in the second frame. Beckwith singled, took second on short passed ball. The next two men were easy outs, but our own Dave Brown snote a single to right and Beckwith scored from second. Gardner then rolled to Hespen for the third out. Three More in the Third The home boys collected a trio of runs in the third. DeMoss, first up, was beamed, went to second on a wild pitch, and scored when Lyons doubled to left. Torrents then upset the inner works by hunting. Torrents and Lyons successfully executed a double steal and both men scored when J. Brown singled to left. McCarthy took Holt's liner. Jersey singled to center D. Brown ended the inning by striking out. Heapen Goes to Showers. When Holt first up in the sixth, stepped to the plate he was confronted with a new hurler. It made little difference to the Giant shortstop, however, his response being a single to center, stole second, took third on a fielder's choice, and scored when D. Brown sent a long sacrifice fly to center. Gardner and DeMoss were easy outs. Becomes a Farce. In the seventh the Giants added the title farce to the affair by pro- ducing four more runs. Lyons was sale on Glocken's error, Torrienti then hit to center for three bases, scoring Lyons. I. Brown struck out, Beck- with tripled to right center, scoring torrienti. Holt walked, leftright- singled Beckwith home, but Holt was nailed at the plate trying to score on the hit. Dave Brown field out to Conlan.

Ben Taylor and his 1922 entry who will bear the Hoosier Capitol colors this season, accompanied by the club secretary, E. J. Butler, and A. D. Williams, secretary of the National Sport Writers Association, invaded Terre Haute, Sunday, April 23, and combatted the local Three I league club. Taylor brought fifteen men along to see that the job was well done and it was. Wayne Carr and Mackey started as the battery for the A's and Carr was relieved after hurling three innings to allow Jeffries, veteran south paw, to "strut his stuff," which he did. Jeff toiled until the sixth and gave way to Ross, a newcomer, who wished to try his curves against the leaguers. For three innings it looked as if the clubs were in for a pitcher's battle, but in the fourth, manager Ben found the opposing moundsman for a long, wicked drive which netted him two bags. After this it was all the A's. In the seventh frame, Taylor again led off with a double, followed by hits, from his mates which netted four tallies, enough to ice the game. The fielding as whole was all that could be asked of any club, and those who witnessed the game feel that at last the A's are due for a pennant. The work of Day, Clark and Blackman in the infield caused much favorable comment, while in the outfield, Charleston, Washington and Holloway proved a veritable stone wall defense. At the bat Charleston, Mackey and Taylor and Holloway led the club with well placed hits at opportune moments. The A's open the season at home with the Cuban Stars as opponents, April 30th. Carr will probably be the pitching selection. The score: A. B. C.

Yesterday's game was a plain shout out of 6 to 0 for the home team. Lockhart, Talladega's star twirler, pitched a not hit, no run game against the visitors yesterday. The game was fast and snappy, one hour and twenty-five minutes, and a simple case of three up and three down for the Atlanta boys in nearly every frame, only 27 men facing Lockhart in nine innings. Though the game was indeed a pitcher's battle, Morris Brown's southpaw, Harrold, working for all he was worth the Talladega boys just outwitted the visitors. Edwards faced the visitors on the mound today for Talladega, yielding one run in the first inning and three in the seventh when Lockhart replaced him, putting an end to the enemy's hopes. Felton, Morris Brown's twirler, held the home team scoreless until the fourth, yielding two runs in that frame, one in the sixth and five in the seventh, when he was replaced by Harrold, who in turn yielded two runs in the eighth. Though not as fast as yesterday's game it was quite as interesting. Spencer, catcher for the Talladega nine is easily the best catcher in the circuit of Southern colleges and is credited with twenty-one putouts in these two games alone. The team leaves on their southern tour Wednesday, April 26, playing the Montgomery Gray Sox Thursday, the Tuskegee aggregation Friday and Saturday; Americus, Ga., Monday; Thomasville, Tuesday; Tallahassee, Fla., Wednesday and Thursday, and Camp Reinnings, Ga., on the return trip.

SPORTIVELY PEAKING Dave Brown was truly right Sunday, the Portsider allowed only two bits, one in the second and the other coming in the seventh frame, struck out ten and did not allow a single runner to get as far as second base. Torrienti is performing a la Babe Ruth so far this season. Having made two home runs in as many games, he might have had a second homer in Sunday's fray had he cared to take the chance but stopped at third. It is surprising that he did not try for it as it would have added to the otherwise rotten game to have had him duplicate his feat of the opening stanza. Any way, he had every thing to gain and nothing to lose for the Giants certainly did not need the run that playing it safe late produced. It's all in the game. The Giants' record now shows, two in the won column and none in the lost column. Which is not so bad considering. Rube Foster said to a small boy who was sitting on the player's bench: "Sonny, if you would get up one of the players could sit down." The boy did not get up, but instead, looked at the Giant manager and said something, we know not what. However, at this time Rube got up and four (4) players sat down. Brown seemed to have had petty ambition to strike out two batters each inning, for the first four innings he struck out two of the three men who faced him. Rube sent Bobbie Williams to short and Marlacher to third in the 8th, also had Reece take Torrentiti's place in center. Bobbie and Marlacher are not taking any chances with their wings, as both threw with the greatest of care to first base, any fast man could have beaten their peg. Sammy—"Say ma, don't it make your hands warm when you smack me?" His mother—"Why, yes, Sammy, it does." Sammy—"They why wouldn't it do just as well to hold them over the gas stove?" After lamping the soldiers perform we are of the opinion that they should all be generals or officers of some rank or other. Yes, sir. Because as baseball players they make simply wonderful soldiers. Jack Johnson visited one of the cabarets the other night and decided to indulge in a bit of dancing. Now after watching Jack doing his bit as a shimmy artist we are of the opinion that he had best stick to fighting. If it's all the same to the Doctors what we would like to know is: Is one bebulosis as bad as tuberculosis. AMERICAN GIANTS PLAYER'S NAME 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 AB R H P E Gardner, R. F.

PROGRESSIVES 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 AB R H P E STARS IN NO HIT, NO RUN TRIUMPH DETROIT, MICH., April 27.—Perhaps for the first time in the annuals of baseball history three pitchers took part in a no hit, no run game here last Sunday, when Pitchers Wilson, Force and Marshall of the local league club let the strong Alconas down without a semblance of a hit being gleaned off the delivery of either hurler during the three innings that each man worked. The twirling of the three leaguers was almost identical in every detail Wilson breezing three batsmen, Force two and Marshall three. For five innings the Alconas were retired in one, two three order, and would have continued in that groove but for a wild peg by Second-sacker Thomas in the sixth which allowed a runner to advance as far as second base and that was as far as any runner of the opposition managed to forge along the circuit. Barber in right and Johnson in left capered about and dragged down drives of the difficult variety, while Shortstop Riggins skidded about and turned sure hits into putons. Petway's charges showed a world of pep along the base path, the boys tabbing a brace of stolen bases. Wesley, Force and Smith rapped the sphere for extra bases while Thomas slammed out a clean home run inside the lot, doing the circuit with time to spare. Pitcher Kidron managed to keep the ten hits acquired by the Stars well scattered and managed to hold the colored boys to one run from the first to the sixth, then an error, a double and a Frank Young of the Defender had a new score hook Sunday. After careful consideration we are of the opinion that Frank has more score books than Dempsey has alibis. McCarthy lost his balance in trying to field Torrenti's hit in the first and fell. At that he has nothing on Hepsen who was pitching. The poor follow lost his nerve. Big Bill Tate whose hand was injured recently is about O. K. now and says he is anxious to mix it with either Wills or Dempsey. Dempsey before sailing announced his willingness to give Tate a chance at the title squeeze netted the Stars two markers. Thomas hit his long drive in the eighth with no one on the paths. From a standpoint of speed, both afoot and in handling the drive of the foe, the Stars book to have the majority of the leagn clubs tied to the sod. The verdict of the fans is, "the best team ever." Petway's pitchers have rounded into mid-season form and each man is on his toes and taring to go the full route. A bunch of the strongest teams around these parts have been rounded up for the trout of the new Stars and the work they are giving the leaguers is destined to put a mighty fine edge to their form which should have them ready for the overrun. Ciants Out For 3rd Win, To Play Progressives Next The American Giants fresh from their 11-0 triumph over the 6th Army Corps from Ft. Sheridan, and conquerors of Rogers Park in the opening game of the season at Schorling park are out to make it three straight wins. Rube and his warriors battle the Progressives Sunday april 30th. The latter team is a strong Semi-Pro team and have been greatly strengthened by the addition of several ex-major stars, they are confident that they will end the Giants streak at two wins. The Giants think different however, and a great battle should ensue. Torrenti has made two home runs and hopes to continue his streak in Sunday's battle. See lineup and official score card at bottom of page. DEMPSEY UNLIKELY TO APPEAR IN EUROPEAN RING Just about the time we decide to believe some of the rumors affloat that Dempsey will meet certain fighters we observe new rumors, coming from different angles as well as different countries. First we had it that Jack and Harry Wills were to do battle in Jersey City July 4th and behold, just as the publicity the match was getting had about succeeded in arousing national favor for the battle, Dempsey decides to go abroad, and then the Wills hopefuls come to the front with the statement that Jack will surely return in September and meet Wills on Labor day. Next we have it that the fight has been arranged for Europe and will be fought in London early this summer. Now we are willing to wager a deal more money than we should be willing to chance on Dempsey beating Wills, that the confab will not be held in Europe. In fact, it is our candid opinion that the champ and his manager, Jack Kearns, is not and never has entertained such an idea, we admit, however, that it is well planned and well directed publicity. Reports from Europe say Dempsey is not being received with such storm as he expected to find awaiting his arrival. Now Kearns knows very well that it takes noise to get money and that noise alone can get the kind of money that he is after, so he is starting out after the noise and consequently the money. There is one other thing that Kearns knows as well as anyone else and better than most people: he realizes that no country in the world cares more for a hero than France, and better yet, they know a hero when they see one, and are certainly not interested in self-styled idols. So if Dempsey wants Europe to receive him as the wonder man that his manager declares the champ to be, he must prove some of it in real battles, not in setups. Those who permitted the press to deceive them into believing that Europe would stand for a Dempsey setup with some of their good but lighter European battlers are going to be badly fooled. Not on your life are they going to stand for another Dempsey massacre through being pitted against some ill-matched foe. A. E. M.

Aid in building and do not create such a spirit of unrest in your brother's breast that he will tear down our achievements." These were the words of advise recently rendered by a member of the "old school" to his fellowmen. The general public has not been able to appreciate the virtue of propaganda and policies which would blast away, uproot, and forever destroy any of the manners and customs which have been handed down to them from the tawny fingers of their enslaved and fettered fathers. Society as a general rule is loath to depart from systems which have already been established and tried. It took years for the steam engine to supplant the ox cart, but for all beneficial purposes now, the ox cart has been abandoned. The automobile was spurned as a thing of evil when it first made its appearance and the good old horse and carriage were fondled closer. Society itself never moves, but circumstances within society move and society accepts the change. The black race is inordinately slow and sluggish in accepting the shifting scenes of society and religiously clings on to relics which should be discarded and destroyed. Many of the customs and manners of the black people in this country are unsafe for further development. They should be destroyed and the ideas of the new day put in their place. Destroy them and construct in their stead modern philosophies, modern psychology and virile policies. If the black man in America would realize that destruction is a basis element in construction and would forthwith start in the wholesale destruction of systems and institutions which now stultify his soul and paralyze his progress, he would soon rid himself of many present embarrassments. The first idea that should be completely and utterly destroyed is the idea of the black man's inferiority. In the place of apologetic shame for having strains of Ethiopian blood in his veins, pride should be instilled. All ideas of inferiority should be exploded, and any which advocate that the "black man has a separate place" in the world from the rest of humanity, should be smashed into smithereens. This would be finale of the most disgraceful idea that any race ever tolerated. The abolition of fanaticism is one of the most essential needs of the black man. Fanaticism according to one of the world's most brilliant thinkers, placed a hand organ in the lap of Italy and a guitar in the hands of Spain. Fanaticism will devitalize and emasculate the black people and shut them out from the practical benefits of life forever. It should be destroyed and an intelligent spiritual understanding built in its stead. Race sycophancy or cowardice should be included in the process of condemnation and those who advocate accepting anything less than the full measure of liberty and freedom are the sponsors of race sycophancy. Red blooded men, men without fear are those who have built up the other great races. "The Uncle Toms" of our race stand as Nemesises to our progress and they should no longer be allowed to contaminate the minds of the world with shameful and slavelike bleatings. Constructive Destruction will put pride in the place of shame, spiritual understanding in the place of fanaticism and men in the place of cowards. Let us destroy in order that we may build us OUR AUTO CONTEST OUR AUTO CONTEST Last year the publishers of The Chicago Whip startled the country with the astounding proposal to give an automobile to the friend of the paper who would bring in the largest number of cash subscriptions. It was doubted that The Whip would make good its promises, but it is now a matter of history that the auto contest was a huge success and every contestant who competed and complied with the rules received the allotted prize that was offered to them. The publishers of The Whip have been requested by the public to stage another contest and in accordance with their desires beginning this week the second of The CHICAGO WHIP EVERYBODY WINS AUTO CONTEST BEGINS. The management proposes to give the winner a handsome car, more handsome and valuable than last year's prize. The purpose of the contest is to increase the circulation of The Whip and scatter its message over a larger territory. The Whip will make good its offer and the public is invited to enter the contest. An early start is a great advantage. Pick the winner. TORIAL HEALTH HINTS By Dr. Troy Smith By Dr. Troy Smith There are a great many mistaken ideas that the general public has concerning tuberculosis or consumption, that should be corrected. It should be firmly impressed upon the minds of everyone that this disease in its early stages can be cured or affected, just because a case is diagnosed early tuberculosis, the person is not doomed. There are about 140,000 deaths from tuberculosis each year, yet, in a given community there are at least four times that number of active cases of tuberculosis, hence if everyone died that had tuberculosis the death toll from this disease would be 560,000 yearly. There is an old German proverb that says, "Everyone has a touch of tuberculosis before death." The old, the young; the poor, the rich; the fat, the thin; the nervous, the phlegmatic; the undersized, the giant; may have tuberculosis infection. Infection however, does not always mean active tuberculosis. The majority of tuberculosis infections of the lungs lie dormant or heal without the person being aware of their presence. To tell when the disease is active is the duty of the physician. By careful examination he notes any abnormal tissue changes, especially any local tissue changes which are manifested by expectoration, pleurisy, and blood spitting. Your physician also recognizes tuberculosis by noting the yearly symptoms, loss of weight, hoarseness, cough blood spitting, pleurisy or frequent colds. A rise in temperature may or may not be present. It is the above early symptoms of tuberculosis that the patient should seek the advice of his medical adviser because it is in this stage that the disease can be cured or arrested. In the later stages when such symptoms appear as a hacking cough, night sweats, profuse expectoration, fever, and rapid loss of weight, the disease is very hard to cure or arrest and in most cases it is incurable. However tuberculosis like many other diseases in that the percentage of favorable results depends upon many factors, such as the degree of activity, the extent of the lesion, the general physical and nervous equilibrium of the patient and his ability and willingness to cooperate. Ordinary colds which are common at this time of the year must not be mistaken for tuberculosis, yet a neglected cold while it is caused by an entirely different germ than tuberculosis, however, may lay the foundation for the germ of tuberculosis. Any cold that lasts over ten or fourteen days should be looked upon as suspicious of early tuberculosis. TREATMENT In the treatment of tuberculosis much can be written, but there are a few general principles that should be familiar to all. It should be universally understood that certain hygienic measures are more important than patent medicines. These hygienic measures include such measures as open air, food, exercise, rest and psychotherapy which will be discussed in the next issue of this paper. LEGAL HINTS Dear Mr. Adams: I leased a house from a man by the name of Jones. When time came for me to take possession I was unable to do so as Mr. Thomas claimed ownership. Who should I bring suit against and why? J. Jackson, Atlanta, Ga. Answer: Bring suit against the man you leased the property from. He is the only man who is liable to you. If he had the right to lease the property to you this means will compel him to get it for you and if he had no right you will be able to recover damages. Editor of the Legal Hints: My father died leaving a will which left his residence to his son, John, a farm that he owned to his daughter, some stock in a very successful business enterprise to me, and the remainder to John's son. Just before he died he transferred the stock that he bequeathed to me for railroad bonds. Will I be able to recover the railroad bonds as my share or will John's son get them? James P., New Orleans, La. Answer: John's son takes the bonds. The above is a specific legacy and the bonds are "substantially different" from the stock. In this way your father has deemed your legacy. Editor G. C. Adams: Upon the preparation of a deed for signing the owner had me sign his name to the deed in his presence. He then acknowledged the deed before a Notary Public and delivered it to me. The question as to whether the deed is good has now arisen and write your valuable paper for information? John C., Albany, Ga. Answer: Yes. If a grantor acknowledges and delivers a deed which bears his name as signing the same, with a seal affixed, it is not important who affixed the signature and seal. Those acts are the grantor's by adoption. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP A column of constructive criticism of men and measures in the hope of correcting errors and evils. Now come those who claim that Marcus Garvey is the Moses of our race. Next thing some will proclaim that Garvey is the second Messiah, but he will have to teach us how to walk on water if he continues to embarrass his constituency with the leaks in the Black Star Liners. Mr. Garvey has made a notable contribution to his people he has awakened to a marked degree their consciousness, but he has none of the qualities of leadership that Moses had. Garvey is just a splendid organizer who knows the weaknesses of his people and plays more upon them than he does upon their strong qualities. After having gone through a winter of suffering and poverty during which time famished black people begged their bread on the streets and shivered in their rags and tatters, their "so-called leaders" and sponsors are preparing another summer of convention and another orgy of wild spending and pompous strutting is in the planning. Wise folks see the error of their ways, but the foolish never change. Dreamers and social reformers are not the only ones who advocate and practice the theories of "free love." In our records of crime in the city of Chicago we find that the unlettered and the ignorant have taken unto themselves common law wives. Our original conception of the sanctity of the marriage celebration is rapidly losing prestige. It is not the result of high brow reasoning but another example of the moral laxity of this great city. The strength of any people is generated in the family proper and any departure from our civilized theory and practice of marriage will tend to sap our potentialities. Common law marriages should be discouraged. Have You A Plan to Help Cut High Rents? IF NOT ACCEPT OURS.

TYMONY, Mgr. 25000 SQ. FT. CLEAN STORAGE SPACE Real Estate Department The colored renter still finds that he has the little end of the horn to come out of. The colored tenants find the rents are still climbing for them—and wages are going down—a sort of inverse ratio. White tenants are being offered one and two months rent to remain in the apartments they are now occupying. The answer to this is very easy, if one reads the financial page of the papers, they will readily see that investors are investing heavily in first mortgage bonds, thus making available the money by which building operations can be developed. It is the same old story, if you want others to belief in you—you must first believe in yourself. So if you want others to believe and believe it is worth while building for you, you must do some building on your own account. In investing money, after all, is only the use of good common sense. Would you allow a man to carry you across a stream on his back, if that man was afraid that he was going to fall into the stream? Then why should we expect others to invest in buildings for us when we ourselves seem afraid to do so, if it is not a good investment for us, why should it be a good investment for them. If it's not sauce for the goose, it certainly can't be sauce for the gander. There is over twenty millions of dollars of colored people's money in the banks of Chicago, yet these same twenty millions are not doing you twenty cents worth of good. The Whip would like to hear from some of its readers on the subject.

OAKLAND 3784 BOOK REVIEW BOOK REVIEW By Mary White Ovington Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Ad- vancement of Colored People. "White and Black." By H. A. Shands. Published by Harcourt, Brace & Co. New York City. Price $1.90. Postage 10c extra. "White and Black" is the story of a small rural community in Texas. You have the Negro tenant farmer, the poor white, the landlord, the white and the colored preacher. You have these people in their relation to white and colored women. And this picture is presented by a white Texas My last sentence makes me want to indulge in retrospect. If a book with this setting had been sent me to review ten years ago, I should have been able to size it up pretty accurately without reading it. Its treatment would have resembled the second half of the "Birth of the Nation." Even one in the Negro world would have been objectionable, except the trusted servants; and everyone in the white world would have been noble, except a stray poor-white. The North would have been censored for reconstruction, and the South praised for its patience with the colored race. The South has produced many books on this pattern, by Page and Dixon and others, books not written to tell the truth, but to defend the white South. To review "White and Black" on any such basis, however, would be ridiculously incorrect. One must read this story to see what a keen observer Shands is, how he picks out a bit of Texas and holds it up to us as it really is. The former picture by the Southerner was like the photograph Mother has taken of her small boy—hair neatly brushed, boots shined, best jacket, neck-tie straight, and on the angel's face a look of pious resignation. But Father now appears with his kodak and snaps his offspring with tousled hair, torn shirt, scaling a fence to chase a stray cat, devilry in his eyes. Shands has used his camera, and he has not been afraid of catching his white characters under some very shady circumstances. It is a remarkable sign of the times that within a few weeks of one another Stribling's "Birthright" and Shands' "White and Black" should be published in New York. Of the two, Stribling's story, which I reviewed as it was appearing in the Century, is the more artistic. This young man from Tennessee is a master of style and has produced a beautiful piece of work, all the more remarkable since it deals with such sordid material. For this reason I like it the better of the two books but it does not get so quick a hold upon one's sympathy. Perhaps this is because Stribling has dared to make a colored man his hero, to centre his story about a Negro college graduate, and he has not sufficient knowledge of the race to make his figure wholly real. Whereas Shands has sketched his educated Negro very lightly, making his hero a white man. But it is not the people who count for so much in Shands' novel, it is the things that happen, the lynching, the Ku Klux, the part the young people play. Events move rapidly and the ending is powerful. But of this I must not tell you. It is unfavorable to spoil a good story. Don't miss this book. I have reviewed many volumes since last October, and I cannot speak too strongly of the necessity of reading this story. Read it and then read "Birthright" and tell me which one you like the better. There has been a battle royal at the N. A. A. C. P. office regarding the relative value of these two works. Of course, you will find things to criticise, but when you are through, go to the library and pick up Page's "Red Rock" or Dixon's "Clansman." Then you will see the immense distance we have progressed. The lynchers and the Ku Klux Klan are still with us, but the Southern youth of today as exemplified by Shands and Stribling, is not defending them. On the contrary he is relentlessly showing their weakness. And let us take a little credit to ourselves for bringing this about. The colored press, the N. A. A. C. P. with its constant stress upon publicity, the many daring investigations of lynchings that its staff have made, the fight going on today in Congress for the Anti-Lynching Bill, all these things have awakened the country. Perhaps when John R. Shillady was beaten up in Austin, Texas, he helped to make this book of Shands. Who knows? What we do know is that when self-criticism begins a community takes on new life. Self-satisfaction, self-complacency, is killing much today that was fine in America. Let us rejoice that an opposite tendency is to be noticed in this attack upon the race question, and be glad that here we are beginning today to face the truth that alone can make us free. New York's Dead Weight The reason that Harlem does not carry very great weight in New York City politics may be ascribed to the fact that of Harlem's entire population, 50,000 persons of voting age have no franchise. 50,000 West Indians in Harlem, who are to all intents and purposes American citizens, but who are technically British subjects, constitute New York's dead weight. These West Indians have for the greater part failed to become naturalized American citizens.
