IV.—No. 20 ACC Wreck R Entire NEAR RIOT FOLLOWS GUN PLAY Police Drive Away Throng Surging Around Restaurant To Avenge Soldier's Shooting A disturbance threatening to assume the proportions of a riot was created late Wednesday night when Joseph Watley, 22, 4019 Federal Street, was shot and fatally wounded by John Freud, a Greek, in his restaurant at 30th Street and Giles Avenue. Watley, who was a member of the Eighth Regiment, was attending drill at the Eighth Regiment Armory, a short distance away. In company with several other soldiers, he entered the restaurant. Accused of Debt After Wattley had completed his meal he walked toward the front of the restaurant. Claiming that the soldier was about to leave without paying for his meal, which amounted to fifteen, the Greek seized a pistol and ran from behind the counter. He fired three shots into the boy's body, two entering the abdomen, one piercing his hand. Sound of the firing immediately drew a large crowd from 35th Street, which was crowded at the time. Freud was seized and turned over to the police. In the meantime the crowd began to wreak havoc with the restaurant. Sugar bowls and water glasses were smashed, tables and chairs overturned. Rocks were hurled through the large plate glass windows. A special detail of police was required to drive off the crowd to prevent further demolition of the place. Wattley was immediately removed to the Provident Hospital for first aid. Indignation rose to a higher pitch when an erroneous rumor was circulated to the effect that he had died upon the operating table. After first aid had been administered at the Provident Hospital, the wounded soldier was placed in the County Hospital, where he died Monday. At the inquest held at the County Morgue Tuesday, Freud was held for indictment on a charge of murder. Wattley had an anunt, Mrs. W. Underwood, residing at 3908 Angus Avenue. Prowler Dies Of Woman's Quick Bullet Early Sunday morning Mrs. Lizzie Hogan, 3520 Prairie Avenue, discovered a burglar in the act of breaking into her home. She fired, the bullet entering the intruder's side. Stanton Avenue police were summoned, and took the wounded man to the Provident Hospital, where he died on the operating table. He was later identified as James Dearon, 27, 3542 Prairie Avenue. A Special $25 For YOU $25.00 will be given the "A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY Holley Disqualified; See Prejudice's Hidden Hand ANNAPOLIS, MD., May 20—The traditional jim-crow aristocracy of the Navy has been upheld. Emile T. Holley, Representative Ansorge's appointee to the United States Naval Academy here, failed to pass the mental tests, it has been announced. Although Holley's disqualification does not come as a surprise, it is a keen disappointment. No secret has been made of the intention of all concerned to disqualify the New York boy upon the slightest possible pretext. In making the announcement of Holley's disqualification, a possible comeback was sidestepped by the following statement: "Academy examination papers are marked by three instructors, unaware to which candidate they assign marks." Trinity Dark As Members Desert Her Trinity Dark As Members Desert Her Like a deserted village Trinity M. E. Church stands empty and untenanted. Its pastor and entire congregation, having defied the dictum of the recent conference, have deserted the magnificent edifice at 30th Street and Prairie Avenue, and organized a new church under the name of Peace Temple. The entire membership of the church seceded from the Methodist Episcopal connection when Trinity Church was made having defined the dictum of the recent conference, have deserted the magnificent edifice at 30th Street and Prairie Avenue, and organized a new church under the name of Peace Temple. The entire membership of the church seceded from the Methodist Episcopal connection when Trinity Church was made subsidiary to South Park M. E. Church, R. Bryant named pas W. Baher as his assis Park M. E. Church, and the Rev. G. R. Bryant named pastor with Rev. G. W. Baber as his assistant. So unified was Trinity Church's sentiment against the action of the conference that at last Sunday morning's service, it is said that the congregation numbered not more than six. It has been announced that the institutional departments inaugurated by Rev. Baber at Trinity Church will be continued under the new organization. At present meetings are being held at the People's Movement Club, 3140 Indiana Avenue, pending the construction of a community house. Co-incident with Trinity's secession, a feeling of unrest has spread through South Park M. E. Church, proper. At a stormy meeting Monday night, Charles L. Reese, chairman of the trustee board and director of the church choir, handed in his resignation. After several hours of deliberation, the pastor's salary was increased over a protest and the meeting adjourned. CHICAGO, SATURDAY, MAY 20th, 1922 SHOOTS SELF AS LETTER BARES LOVE Woman Tries To Kill Self When Letter Reveals Love For Husband's Brother Discovered in an extraordinary love triangle, Mrs. Ollie Malone, 31 years of age, attempted to commit suicide at her home, 3632 Vernon Avenue, early Tuesday. Mrs. Malone's act is said to have been prompted by her husband's discovery of an ardent letter she had written to her husband's brother, John Malone. She is said to have been desperately in love with her brother-in-law and several times contemplated suicide over the futility of her love for him. Her husband discovered the letter she had written his brother Monday night. He is said to have chided her severely about it. She brooded over the discovery throughout Monday night. Early Tuesday morning she took a 32 calibre pistol, and pointing to her heart pulled the trigger. The bullet entered her breast just about the heart. She was removed to the Fort Dearborn Hospital, where surgeons say chances for her recovery are doubtful. Two Die At School Commencement GURDON, Ark., May 20.—Two women and two babies were killed Thursday night and twenty-five others injured in a stumpede which followed the explosion of a gasoline lamp in a school where a commencement was being given. Several of the injured may die, it was said. Asks $100,000 For Wounded Heart WINSTON-SALEM, N. C., May 20—Alleging that her heart has been wounded to the extent of $100,000, Miss Daisy Berkley, prominent in social and church work, has asked that sum from Charles H. Jones, reputed to be North Carolina's most wealthy citizen. Miss Berkley alleges that Jones made ardent love to her, wow her heart, and asked her hand in marriage; that after she accepted him and resigned her position with the board of home missions, Jones refused to marry her.

Hortenso Grayson Miss Marie Lucas Mrs Gladys Casino Enthusiasm Intense In Big Campaign The public mind is being largely centered on the outcome of the race. Nearly everyone has his or her favorite candidate who is striving to bring home to the many friends he or she represents as well as to gain a mammoth personal reward. In some cases the entire neighborhood and city appear to have arisen to the occasion, determined to see that their favorite comes out ahead. False Stories It is no doubt natural, with such intense interest being shown in The Chicago Whip's great race, that some candidates and friends of contestants would attempt to discourage others by circulating rumors more ingenious than accurate. One hears all sorts of stories. But the tales that are heard are so highly embellished with frills, so utterly inconceivable, that their untruthfulness is apparent. The exaggerated stories are deserving of no consideration, and the wise candidate is too busy getting votes to listen to them, let alone being influenced by these "wild reports." Candidates Reporting Success Candidates are reporting that they are meeting with unusual success in inducing subscribers to extend their subscription to three, four, five and ten years. These are the kind of subscriptions that count the most. This is a campaign where the "best man wins"—the contestant who secures the greatest number of votes will win this fine Paige car. A Special Prize Just to prove how easy votes may be obtained and what a generous offer The Whip is making they will give a special prize of $25.00 to the person who turns in the greatest number of subscriptions to The Chicago Whip from May 10 to May 20 by 9:00 o'clock, Saturday night, May 20. Remember, a ten-year subscription counts you as ten one-year subscript First Subscription Coupon When accompanied by the Nomination Blank, and your first subscription, this coupon will start you in the race for the magnificent Chicago Whip's prizes with a grand total of more than 135,000 votes. This coupon may be used only once and is valid when accompanied by a subscription remittance. Candidate's Name..... This coupon will count 100,000 EXTRA free votes when returned to the Campaign Manager, together with the first subscription you obtain. It must be accompanied by the cash, and the subscription must be for a period of one year or longer. The 100,000 EXTRA free votes are in addition to the regular number of votes given on the subscription as per the regular vote schedule. False Stories A Special Prize (Continued on page 2.) POLICE PUMP FOUR BULLETS INTO MAN WHO MAULED WIFE Charles Thaxton, 3707 Prairie Avenue, came home drunk Friday night. His wife, Mrs. Sallie Thaxton, could do nothing to please him. He got rougher and rougher. Finally he attacked the woman, beating her over the head with a pair of brass knuckles. When she was later taken to a hospital three stitches were required to close the wound. Neighbors hearing the woman's screams, called the Stanton Avenue police. Policemen Kelly and Mazon responded to the call. They found the drunken man still abusing his wife. When ordered to hold up his hands, Thaxton showed them into his pockets and warned the police not to advance upon him. Policeman Kelly responded with a fusillade of bullets. Thaxton fell, wounded in the neck and abdomen. Bullets had also pierced his right abdomen and left hip. He was taken to the Provident Hospital, where he may recover. Call Troops As Brick Makers Go On Strike HAVERSTRAW, N. Y., May 20.—A handful of state troopers from White Plains tonight were patrolling the streets of this Hudson River town, ready to quell any disorder which might result from a sudden strike of 1,500 to 1,800 negro workers who have succeeded in shutting down 16 brick plants scattered along about two miles of water front. Good For 100,000 Extra Votes Chicago's Most Popular and Widely Read Weekly PRICE FIVE CENTS ON' 40 Cents Contest PAYS WITH LIFE FOR ASSAULT 14 Year Old Girl Tells How She Killed Southern White Man Who Outraged Her GREENVILLE, S. C., May 20.—Lucille Tinsley, a 14-year-old girl, is on trial here, charged with the murder of N. B. Howard, white. The girl's defense is that she took the man's life as the price of her honor. Howard was shot in front of the home of the defendant on March 22, dying twenty-four hours later from the effects of the wound. Several witnesses swore that previous to the shooting Howard had approached and insulted the girl. On the day of the actual shooting, he forced his way into her home, making a criminal assault upon her. After she had driven him out of her home into the yard, he advanced upon her with threats, she said. Fearing his return, she ran into the house, secured a pistol and fired blindly. Examination of his body showed that he had been drinking heavily. The girl's testimony was strengthened by that of a white woman, residing in the vicinity of the shooting, who corroborated the defendant's story. The defendant denied the accusation made by the state accusing her of shooting the man over a small money matter, and declared that it was done in self-defense. 5th Eastern Bank Closes In Pittsburg PITTSBURG, Pa., May 20—The Modern Trust and Savings Co., of this city, is the fifth eastern bank to close its doors since the beginning of the year. Fully 500 men and women depositors stormed the bank when it failed to open its doors last Tuesday morning. A big sign reading "Closed" was conspicuously in view. Bank examiners in making an audit of the books found that doubtful loans and notes without proper securities necessitated the closing of the bank. Bandits Laugh As They Get Life Sentence Sentences of from ten years to life didn't seem to mean much to Fred Petters, Howard Johnson and Ollie Turner, known as the "Black Knights," who were on trial before Judge Fitch as holdup men. The sentence pronounced by the court drew a contemptuous laugh from the three. In view of their derisive attitude, Judge Fitch instructed State's Attorney's Cook and Guerin to write to the pardon board to see that the men are properly punished.

No Salary At opened his vaudeville engagement in Detroit this week, according to William Bottoms, of the Dreamland Cafe, who declares that criminal action against the actor-pugilist is his last hope for recovering money he loaned Johnson immediately upon his liberation from a federal prison. "Jack" No Salary At Avenue After several unsuccessful efforts to make a collection from Jack, Bottoms attempted to make a garnishment of his share of the receipts at the Avenue Theatre, only to find that Johnson had made an arrangement to receive all his money in advance. Bottoms then carried the action into Indiana and seized Johnson's $5,500 Lafayette automobile, only to have Mrs. Johnson step into the case and swear that the automobile belonged to her. At this juncture the Lafayette Automobile Co. further complicated matters by claiming the automobile belonged to neither Jack nor his wife, but was still the property of the company, as it had not been paid for. The court ruled that before Mrs. Johnson could take possession of the automobile she must schedule an $8000 real estate bond or a $6,00 cash bond, in default of which the car still remains in the custody of the auto company. Determined not to be outwitted by the wily pugilist, Bottoms declares he will follow Johnson into every state where he appears with attachment writs. In the meantime he has instructed his lawyer, Atty. Wm. E. Reilley to ask the grand jury to indict Johnson on a charge of operating a confidence game, alleging that he obtained over $6,000 from Bottoms on false pretense, inasmuch as he admits that he obtained the money, but boasts that it cannot be collected. W.Va. Discrimination Taken Into Court BRIDGEPORT, W. Va., May 20. One of the first cases to be tried under West Virginia's Civil Rights Law came to trial this week, five witnesses for the plaintiff and one for the defense having testified. Four men, James Sims, William Bradshaw, Silvester Freeman, and Samuel Corbett, brought suit for $500 each against George Vlahos et al, proprietors and waiters at the American Dairy Lunch in Bridgeport because of discrimination against them on account of their color. They claim to have been refused service in the restaurant. - Ps . ‘3 oe om . >) a « 2 ENTHUSIASM. « INTENSE IN BIG CAMPAIGN Great Interest Being Shown tions, a five-year subscription as five one-year subscriptions, etc. This of- fer is in addition to the regular vote schedule which appears on another page ofatiis issuer$25,00. for @ Sew moments spare time next week, Isn't that worth trying for, Right Now Is the Time _ From now until Saturday night, June.a, is the time to “dig in” and gather the yates, by the thousands emember, Saturday night, June 3, is positively the last minute of the big vote. ‘Two Imported Weeks ‘The winning votes can be secured between now and 10 o'clock Saturday night, June 3.

Johnson NEW YORK CITY, May 20—Ridiculing the statement of Robert Lansing, Secretary of State, under President Wilson, that the United States had taken Haiti to protect it from German invasion, James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, today called the story a pretext. He said: "The Americans landed forces in Haiti—which have not yet been withdrawn—on July 28, 1915, exactly twelve months after the so-called German threat of occupation. We should like to have Mr. Lansing tell why, if the occupation of Haiti by Germany was threatened, did the United States take twelve months to get forces down to Haiti to avert that threat. The truth is, the German incident may now be used as an excuse but it was not the actual reason for our intervention. "That fact of the matter is that the United States has done in Haiti precisely the things which it claims the Monroe Doctrine was established to keep any foreign power from doing, namely, it has obtained a foothold on the territory there; it has seized the Haitian custom houses and violated every safeguard which the Monroe doctrine was designed to throw around the weaker republics to the south of us. "Let the administration, let the government and let the American people come clean on this subject. Let them acknowledge that we have done and are still doing the Haitian people a grave injustice; that whatever may have been the reason for stepping in, it gives us no right to take from the Haitian people their well-earned independence and sovereignty." U.S. Disgraced By Lynchings, Say Bishops HOT SPRINGS, Ark., May 20.—(Special)—The official weight of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, numbering two and a quarter million members, was thrown into the balance against lynching by the quadrennial address of the College of Bishops to the general conference now in session here. Having commented on the negro's "commendable zeal" in the effort for education and on the remarkable progress made by the race since it emerged from slavery, the bishops continue: "We urge our people everywhere to do all they can for the uplifting of the negroes in preparation for a safe and helpful citizenship. This implies that they shall have complete justice where their lawful rights are concerned. We especially urge that everything possible be done to prevent lynchings, which are no less a disgrace to those who engage in them than they are an outrage upon the helpless victims. This crime of crimes, which is not only a complete subversion of law Illiteracy Is Reduced By 20 Per Cent WASHINGTON, D. C., May 20.—(Special.) The public schools of the South are making progress in eliminating illiteracy among the negroes. The 1920 census showed about 300,000 less colored illiterates than that of 1910. In 1910 the percentage of colored illiteracy in the South was 33.3. In 1920 it had dropped to 26.3. This leaves 1,753,000 negroes who cannot write. Georgia has the greatest number of these illiterates—261,115, a percentage of 29.1. Louisiana with 206,730 had the highest percentage of illiteracy, 38.5. Other states which still have great masses of colored illiterates are Alabama, with 210,690, or 31.3 per cent; Mississippi, with 205,815, or 29.3 per cent, and South Carolina, with 131,422, or 29.3 per cent. Every Southern state showed a marked reduction in illiteracy between 1910 and 1920. Every Northern state also showed a decrease. This would indicate that the negroes migrating were mostly able to read, otherwise they would have increased illiteracy in the North. The percentage of illiteracy among Northern negroes is much less than among Southern negroes, being 26 per cent in the South and eight per cent in the North. Every Southern state also shows a marked increase in the proportion of negro children in school. For the South as a whole slightly over half of the negro children are reported in school, while in the North slightly over 60 per cent are in school. Mayor and Klan Official In Hot Debate Over "White Supremacy Wife And I Are Miracle Wom'n Ill-Matched, Heals Sick In Says Reese Nashville CHICAGO, Ill., May 20.—According to reports in a Southern newspaper a debate concerning the Ku Klux Klan was held in Kansas City, Kan., two days ago. Mr. Harry Graham, international organizer of the Ku Klux Klan, was opposed by Mayor Harry B. Burton of Kansas City. Dr. Graham presented the time-worn arguments centering around social purity, white supremacy, welfare of the nation, and the upholding of the constitution and stated that his organization was the largest secret service organization in the world. Mayor Burton, on the other hand, argued that supremacy of the white race was a matter to be proved by its own action. No guarantee of white supremacy was in the constitution of the United States which on the other hand guaranteed equal rights to per- WifeAndIAre Ill-Matche, Says Reese Anent the forth-coming divorce proceedings to be brought against him by his wife, Charles L. Reese, well known automobile mechanic, 10 E. 36th St., stated that he and his wife were an ill-matched couple, finding no pleasures in common. The Reeses, who are both well known in Chicago, are living apart pending the outcome of the divorce suit. Mrs. Reese is said to be living with friends at 3221 South Park Ave. She plans to sue her husband, charging him with desertion, it is said. In the course of an interview, Mr. Reese admitted that he had left his wife, declaring that she had neglected him during his illness. "My wife and I were ill-matched," he said. "She loved the bright lights and cabarets, while I preferred to go to church." She was also indiscreet with other men, whom I shall name when the case comes up for trial." Mr. Reese is chairman of the board of trustees and chorister of So. Park M. E. Church.

The Ku Klux Klan had better "Be co-operating unmasked with the law" than going around "frightening and punishing in defiance of the law." Mayer Burton further deprecated the fact that by its masking and robbing, it opened one more loop-hole for criminals to murder under cover, whether the members of the Klan themselves were guilty or not of the outrages charged to them. The same Southern newspaper later carried an editorial commenting on the office hefld by Dr. Graham. The Ku Klux Klan had been posing as a 100 per cent American organization and the newspaper wondered what an INTERNATIONAL organizer could do in an organization whose membership was limited to 100 per cent white Americans.

The charge against Bougus was filed by Mrs. Ruth Gillespie, the mother of Istmal March, a girl of 15 years of age, with whom Bougus was charged with having illegal relations. It developed on cross-examination of witnesses that Bougus, who was a roomer at the home of the Gillespie was a secret lover of his landlady, also that Mrs. Gillespie lived openly with another man by the name of Brice Jones, better known as Home Boy, and that the charge against Bougus was the result of a conspiracy between Mrs. Gillespie and her avowed lover, Brice Jones, to extort money from Bougus. After hearing the testimony of the examining physician as to the condition of the girl the court promptly found the defendant not guilty. Bougus was represented by Attorneys W. J.

So through the window he went, taking the boy with him. The lad suffered a broken shoulder and other severe injuries. The prisoner, John Sharkman, 38 years old, was being taken to the Dayton Workhouse to serve a sentence for bootlegging. The boy, Leonard Larkins, was being taken to the state reform school at Lancaster. The two officers in charge of the prisoners had handcuffed them together. Both prisoners were recaptured.

West, thought to have been lynched by a mob in 1911, was returned recently from a French battlefield, where he fell in action. West was jailed with several other men on a charge preferred by a white girl. A mob broke the jail and hanged him from a bridge over a river. Two other men were hanged with him. When the rope holding one of the other victims broke and the victim fled, the mob pursued him, allowing West to extricate himself and fall into the river below. His disappearance was never noticed.

A man in a suit pushes a door. NOSEY WAS hanging around a railroad station the other night looking for those that come to the Windy City. He saw a couple—evidently sweethearts—saying their last goodbye. The girl was leaving. The man could not stand it so he bought a ticket to Englewood Station. So did Nosey. The couple billed and cooled all the way to 63rd Street. Nosey got off and noticed that the young man was oblivious to the fact that he was at the end of his ticket. The next day Nosey saw the young man buying a pair of house slippers and inquired why. He was told by friends of the young man that this young Romeo had to walk back to South Chicago from somewhere out in the prairies, as a mean conductor had let him off out there because he did not have the fare to go farther. See what love did for him. --- OLD MEN sometimes have strange habits. Nosey has noticed an old man wearing a live pet lizard on his coat. One of those reptiles that changes its color to match the color of the surface on which it rests. The old man had almost every color suit that one could buy. Nosey saw the old man the other day wearing one of those violet plaid suits with every color of the rainbow mixed in, but was without his little lizard. Nosey asked after the pet and the old man said: "Well, you know he changes his color to match every suit I wear and did not have any trouble with green, blue, red, black and brown, but when I put him on this new suit of mine the little fellow just busted himself wide open trying to make good." Tears came into the old man's eyes as Nosey moved away to hide a smile. --- SOME PEOPLE have very delicate appetites and a little thing can spoil their zest for food. Nosey was one of the invited guests to a chicken dinner the other day. When Nosey and several of the guests approached the apartment where the dinner was to be held, the strong smell of cooking cabbage struck their nostrils. The guests stopped, looked at one another and then decided to go back as that was not their idea of a chicken dinner. Nosey remained and investigated, locating the cabbage pots in three of the four apartments, and then entered the one where he was invited. There was chicken and plenty of it there. Nosey made excuses for the other guests while he ate their portion and decided that it is really an evil smell that blows no one some good. --- EVERY EVENING a little soldier boy has been meeting his little girl on the Boulevard and after friendly greetings he has taken her for a stroll. Last Saturday evening he was at his accustomed place at the right time. No girl in sight. He waited and waited and then concluded to go home and take off his uniform. On the way home he encountered his girl on another Boulevard. She was swinging on the blue arm of an officer of the law. For a minute it looked as if the army and the law would engage in battle, but the little fellow took in the policeman's size and side arms, then stamped his foot, made a right-above-face in true military style and went off. The girl only smiled. Some women simply must have plenty of protection. --- YOU CAN NEVER tell whose wife you have when you meet them out. Noscy saw a man approach a couple, looking daggers and foaming at the mouth. He asked the man what he was doing on 35th Street with his wife in the daytime. The man addressed did not answer but wheeled and fled. Noscy knew that he was guilty. The lady looked frightened but stayed by the wrathful one. They had hardly gone half a block when another man stopped the new couple and told the lady to go home at once and look out after his children and other advice that could come only from a husband. Nossey was dumbfounded when he saw the lady obey and wondered if he tried it would the lady obey him. Investigation showed that the first man was her crazy brother and the second man was her husband's brother. The real husband was at an afternoon matinee dance with a real "vamp." All of which means that you can never tell where you are when you are with a strange lady. Clark Valentine of Troop 16, Boy Scouts, has received his conserveted Badge or Star, life, bugle and merit He will pass on to the rank of the Eagles next week, he being the only boy of the race to receive such great honors in all Michigan. --- Mrs. Ida Gaines of 93 Bedford St was called to Detroit to the funeral of her cousin who died Wednesday.

EIGHTH INFANTRY, ILLINOIS NATIONAL GUARDS NOTES By First Lieut. Matthew R. Johnson We respectfully say to the people of Chicago that a little more than three years have passed since the return of the Old Eighth and just prior to their return elaborate preparations for an adequate welcome and homecoming for the Old Eighth, who had added bright chapters to the history of Illinois. They were given all the honors that a grateful and great city like Chicago could give them. They, the soldiers, had on their proud breasts over 30 American Distinguished Service Crosses and more than 70 Croix De Guerre; no American regiment did better. Every effort that was put forth to show our appreciation on their return—they deserved it all and more than they returned were the living, but what of those who did not return—"the dead?") It is very true, some had to pay with their lives; some could not return; it is to those that did not return that we, the Memorial Committee of the Eighth Infantry, Illinois National Guard, feel that the public owe it (to those Fallen Heroes) to erect a monument to their honor and also to turn out en masse, as they did for the return of the living, from France, to pay a high tribute to those who did not return, and for those who paid with their lives that we may continue to enjoy the principles that our nation fought for. On June 3rd, 1922, at 2:00 p. m., come with us and do your part in this solemn occasion; it is necessary that we ask the public to contribute to a fund which is estimated to cost over $2,000. Many have begun sending their donations and we hope that the required amount will be subscribed early. The program for the day Is as follows: Master of Ceremonies...... .....The Hon. Edw. H. Wright Invocation...Chaplain Wm. S. Bradden Unveiling of the Bronze Tablet.

A brilliant, romantic melodrama of Apache dens and gilded cabinet—of the dancing the shadow that menaced their love. Men fought and killed one another for her smile and yet that did not satisfy a soul craving for excitement. It was not tragedy she sought, not the ghastly impact of man fighting man for her favor, but the superb thrill of stalking and stealing gems whose richness made them irreplaceable. Until she saw and succumbed to the Green Temptation and then—well see what happened in this Betty Compson's latest picture.

Emil Treville Holley, the black boy who was nominated by Congressman Ansorge as an appointee to the United States Naval Academy "failed" to pass his entrance examinations. Broad minded American citizens view the alleged failure of Holley with doubts and misgivings and it seems hard to believe that an "honor man" in the schools of New York would fail these examinations. In the light of the expressed opposition to Holley's admission and the history of the naval academy's hostility to black people it would seem that Holley ran into the brick wall of American prejudice. Bishop Leet, the Jim Crow bishop of the M. E. Church, is not gaining favor in the attitude manifested toward Rev. G. W. Baber, formerly pastor of the Trinity Church of this city. Rev. Baber started in this church with fifteen members and no money or financial connection. In a year's time Trinity became an institutional organization with several hundred members boasting of a free library, nursery, medical and dental clinic and other advanced and much needed departments. Notwithstanding these facts Rev. Baber was unceremoniously related to fill the chair of assistant pastor to the church which he had built up and developed. Bishop Leet is the same red necked, white hypocrite who refused to eat with black preachers at Gammon Theological Seminary in Atlanta, Ga., and in many devious ways has shown himself unworthy of presiding over a Christian connection. He is alleged to be adept in using the term "nigger" and other objectional epithets when referring to people of the black race. Dr. Baber has revolted and he is a man whom we cannot help but admire because of his manly attitude. Bishop Leet, we cannot admire because of his narrowness of mind and soul. "Sing while you work" is the new idea of the Pullman Company. The porters must entertain the passengers with melodious voices and ante-bellum tunes. Not satisfied with the humility of the task of serving the traveling public, the porter must now make the traveler happy while the iron horse draws the rolling palace over the steel tracks. How the porters can relish the job of singing on a job which pays them poorly and offers them no opportunities of advancement is hard to understand. If the porters would weep and moan instead of singing, the public would appreciate the fact that they were not altogether satisfied with their condition. Yet after all, there is dignity in labor and if the porter is willing to sing while he works it is his business, not ours. Adams Men's Shop OPEN EVENINGS 3139 So. State St. Chicago, Ill.

BOMB, BOMB BOMB, BOMB The labor disorders which have resulted in murders and mutilation, dealt by infernal bombs, have aroused the indignation of the civic authorities in Chicago and chagrin of the whole country. Two policemen were killed by bombs last week and then, and not until them, did the powers that be draw back the fictional veil of law and order... It is the old story of the law of compensation—the pendulum which swings out must swing back again. Over thirty of the homes of black people have been bombed in Chicago and not one of the bomb throwers has been apprehended. The Mayor of the city was supinely silent and not at all frustrated notwithstanding the fact that it was the overwhelming majority of black votes that threw him in office. The bomb thrower, however, became unwary and now the doorsteps of the city official is painted red. The whole commonwealth is aroused and Chicago is strangely alarmed. The Chicago Whip prophesied this very thing. OUR DAILY BREAD OUR DAILY BREAD WHILE the black people are raving over the Ku Klux Klan, the Haitian situation and the prolongation of the Lynch Law, the white man shrewdly and silently ignores these issues and skillfully profits from the labor of the black man and exploits him to his heart's content. The American black man without a doubt is the most exploited civilized human in the sweep of this Solar System. HE works for less money, puts in longer hours, receives less pay than any other group in the Federation of States. He, after receiving his measly pittance, is systematically robbed of the most part. He pays more to live and receives less for his money than any other American citizen and the appalling feature is that he does not realize how he is duped, cheated and deceived. IF the black race would be returned an equitable interest in the money that is filched from them each month, they would be able to buy out many of the syndicates and systems that have grown fat off of their stupidity and ignorance. Our Jewish friends have been facetious salesmen for the last six thousand years. They not only know how to buy low, but they know how to sell high, and no extraordinary mentality is needed to understand why they infest the black people's districts. The black people have been so gullible to the arts and wiles of the crafty Jewish merchants and salesmen that taking their money is like pilfering candy away from a baby. Wherever the black people can be found in America, regardless of whether it be in the distant West or the extreme East, if in the highest point North or in the foremost point South, wherever the black people are their commercial shadow, the Jew, will be found, and not even the lesson taught by experience has weaned the black people from these exploiters, who have bled them white and rode away in high-powered machines to lay back in the beds of luxury and gloat gleefully over the easy marks. IF some lessons were taught to black people on buying, selling, bartering and trading, if less time were spent on hymn singing and dry-eyed moaning over the devil's doings, surely their cleverly contrived robbery of black people would be brought to an impromptu halt. THE black people live in neighborhoods where the cheapest merchandise is dispensed at the highest prices. The foodstuffs that they pay first-class prices for are as a rule what is known as "seconds." Not only the Jewish people thrive from this practice but Gentiles who mercilessly grind human flesh through their money-making machines reap full harvests. It is desired that the black people be awakened to the fact that they are being robbed by daylight burglaries who use short weights and measures and palm off rotten food and inferior commodities. IT is not a problem to be worked by mathematicians nor scientists, but the average person can see through the scheme which has caused their fellowmen to grow poor, while the dealers in their immediate neighborhoods grow richer. We hear every day in Chicago of ex-butchers and storekeepers controlling millions of dollars and delving back a few years into their histories would disclose the fact that they got their footholds in the "black belt." HERE is real work for the business leagues to accomplish. Here is a task for the church to perform. Teach us how to buy our daily bread and how to bargain for the roof over our heads and the raiment which covers our bodies. WEATHER CHICAGO, Ill.
