18 PICNICKERS DIE AS BRIDGE COLLAPSES GIRL PUTS TORCH TO ORPHANGE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES KLANSMEN, IS CHARGE PRICE 5 CENTS GIRL REPUBLI RINGER DENIES KU KLUX KLAN AFFILIATION Says It Is a Scheme To Drive Away His Friends On The Southside South Side voters have been alarmed by the rumble and underground roars warning them about the activities of the Ku Klan and their members who in sheep's clothes have attempted to gain the favor of the Black voters. Rumors are heard that members of the klan already hold offices in the State's Attorney's Department and a new magazine which recently makes its appearance in the battlefield against the klausmen declares that Wm. H. Bennet is one of these men. Accuse Ringer Chas, Ringer, Republican candidate for the office of county treasurer, is also rumored and alleged to be a member of the Man. This statement Mr. Ringer emphatically denies. On Tuesday evening he was interviewed by a member of The Chicago Whip's staff and issued the following statement. It has been brought to my attention that my political opponents are making statements to the voters of Chicago that I am affiliated with the Klux Klux Klan. I am not a member of this organization, and as I understand their rules a man must be born in United States to become a member. I do not even qualify, as I was born in Nova Scotia on February 17, 1874. Mr. Ringer made it plain that he had no sympathy with the klan and knew only one religion and one race—the Christian faith and the human race. Will Expose Klansmen The Chicago Whip will publish the names of all members of the Ku Klux Klan who have aspirations and ambitions to hold public office and it is the duty of the Whip to side with the Side will not give them their support at the polls in the coming election. STUDENTS STRIKE AS WATER SURROUNDS SCHOOLHOUSE BALTIMORE, Md. Sept. 23.—Although the principal and teachers have been in constant attendance, not one of the 165 students of the Sparrows Point Public School has reported for instruction for over two weeks. The trouble arises from the fact that the school is surrounded with water to a depth of 10 feet. Access can only be gained by walking over a narrow strip of boards. SHOTS FIRED AT KU KLUX RITES FREDERICK CITY, Md., Sept. 23.—Open opposition developed to the formation of the Ku-Klux Klan in this county when about twenty shots were fired at members of the Frederick Klan during a ceremonial at which a number of candidates were inducted. The ceremonial was put on in a field about a mile west of Frederick, and had just opened when the gunfire started. One of the bullets shattered the windshields of a klansman's automobile. A member of the klan renamed the fire, according to an eyeitness, and the fusillade was kept up until the attacking party retreated. The klan has offered a reward of $50 for information leading to the identity and arrest of those who started the firing. Puts on Charcoal. Stages Holdup LOS ANGELES. Cal. Sept. 23.

SHARDING SHIP OF STATE ASSHUTION SOUTHERN CIVILIZATION Organization work for the annual home service campaign of the Salvation Army began in earnest this week with the acceptance of Cyrus H. McCormick, Jr. of the responsible post of chairman of the executive committee. At a luncheon of the executive committee at the Union League Club, Friday, Mr. McCormick outlined the plan for the campaign, and also announced that he was asking about thirty of Chicago's most prominent business and professional men to serve with him. Plans to co-ordinate the work of the men's and women's division of the committee were also discussed. Mrs. Joseph Fish, chairman of the women's division, entertained group chairmen of the women's division at a luncheon at the Chicago Women's Club on Saturday to discuss plans for their participation. Miss Agnes Foreman, chairman of the Women's auxiliary of the Salvation Army, announced that she expected to have 10,000 women enrolled in the auxiliary before the drive opens on October 16 and they will be attending the Salvation Army with the Salvation Army appeal. The army is asking $498,000 to carry on its work in Chicago in 1923. The army budget, showing how this sum is to be spent, has been approved in detail by the Chicago Advisory Board, of which the late Francis S. Peabody, was chairman. The hard headed business men on the board subjected the budget to a searching scrutiny and agreed that this sum was necessary if the army is to function efficiently. None of the money will be spent outside of Chicago. Mrs. Doris L. Chapman has been named chairman of the publicity committee for the campaign. Mrs. Chapman has directed the publicity for Liberty Loan drives and many charitable efforts, and is organizing a committee to lay the army message before every citizen of Chicago. STARTS FIRE WITH GASOLINE, MAN WILL RECOVER Irving Clark, 38, 2807 Wentworth Avenue, was in a hurry to get a fire started in a stove in his home Saturday.

After the explosion it was found that Clark was painfully burned about the neck and chest. He will recover. CHICAGO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23rd, 1922. GARVEY SEEKING AFRICAN MANDATE FROM LEAGUE GENEVA, Sept. 13.—A contingent of Negroes representing Marcus A. Garvey, "Provisional President of Africa," appeared before the League of Nations today and demanded that it "grant to the Negroes of the world a mandate for South Africa." The spokesmen of the party were Jean Joseph Adam, a Haytian and Lee Van Sherill of New York. They declared that they would demonstrate their ability to run a government if the league granted them authority to do so. The New York Spokesman said that the delegation was acting under the authority of the United Negro Congress, recently held in that city. The league secretariat acknowledged receipt of the petition. BULLETS FLY IN NEW YORK'S Y. W. C. A. ROOMS NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 23. The calm of the Harlem branch of the Y. W. C. A. was rudely broken last week during a meeting of the Appomattox Republican Club. The shots were fired by Clarence Cobb, custodian of the building. The trouble started when D. W. Goodall, a member of the club, arose under the influence of liquor, and attempted to break up the meeting. The Rev. R. M. Bolden, who was in charge of the meeting, asked Mr. Cobb to eject the drunken man, giving him instructions not to readmit him in case he should return. Goodall left the building, but returned sometime later, still more drunk, and brandishing a revolver. Cobb then seized his own pistol and fired it, wounding Goodall in the hip. He was taken to a box where it was ascertained that his wounds were only of a minor nature. When sufficiently sobered, he expressed regret for his actions. The Rev. Mr. Bolden is candidate for the assembly from the 18th District. Elks Purchase Home Site DES MOINES, Iowa, Sept. 23.—Hawkeye Lodge No. 160, I. B. P. O. E, has taken the initial steps in erecting a beautiful clubhouse. The site has been chosen and the land purchased. MASONS DOUBT ABDUL IS ON THE LEVEL NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 23.—Abdul Hamid Hamiul Suleiman of Khartoum, Sudan, Egypt, present address 143 West 130th Street, is a greatly disappointed man. To newspaper reporters last week, he declared he was confident that the 200,000 colored American Shriners would be "tric" Shriners of Mecca in Arabia and thereby make it difficult or impossible, he said, for the white Shriners to go any further with the federal injunction proceedings they have instituted to restrain the Negro organization from using the name Mystic Shriner or wearing Shrine emblems. When the matter was brought to his attention, Caesar R. Blake of Charlotte, N. C., Imperial Potentate of the Shriners, issued the following statement: "American Negroes would have to become Mohammedans in order to accept Suleiman's offer, and American Negroes are Christians. That settles it. "Therefore Abdul will do no appointing nor will he collect assessment from each of the 200,000 which was to be paid by him at Mecca when he returned there to inscribe their names." "As to Abdul's authority, I have no reason to doubt it. Abdul appeared before the Imperial Council of the Negro Shriners in Washington last month, and after offering to authenticate his credentials, wrote them out in Arabic. No one could read the document except Abdul, however. It was turned over to the State Department, which at last accounts was still trying to decipher it. Our authority for the Negro Shrine organization in America is well authenticated as a branch of the Prince Hall order of Masons. Our organization expects a favorable decision from the courts in the litigation now pending against the colored Shrine in Texas and Arkansas." Professor Quits As School Standard Is Lowered DOVER, Del., Sept. 23—Dr. W. C. Jason, president of the State for Colored Students, resigned his post last week. He gave as his reason dissatisfaction at the lowering of the school's standard. Nab Woman. 74. As Vagrant WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 23.—An aged woman, 74 years of age, who described herself as Mrs. Fannie Taylor, was arrested and brought into court on a charge of vagrancy last week. She was selling newspapers in front of the Patent Office Building when arrested. EIGHTEEN DROWN WHEN BRIDGE COLLAPSES Death Halts Motor Party When Bridge Gives Way, Plunging Many In River. WAYCROSS, Ga., Sept. 23—Eighteen young people lost their lives Monday at noon when a truck load of thirty persons returning from Nichols, Ga., bound for Homerville, went through a bridge spanning the Sattilla river. The truck with its load was too heavy for the frame bridge which broke in the middle and dropped some twenty feet with those who lost their lives and the few who miraculously escaped. Bodies Recovered The bodies were recovered during Monday night and the forenoon today, and were brought to Homerville, where most of the drowned ones resided, and given a resting place in the burial ground there. The Baptist Church of that place was turned into a morgue. The seats of the middle aisle of the church were removed and one after another of the dead lay on the floor as stricken families and friends and hundreds of sympathizers looked into the faces of the unfortunates. It seems that the party traveling in a two-ton truck was getting back on its way home from an outing and that as the driver was not aware of the trail condition of the wooden bridge he did not hesitate to cross it with his loaded vehicle. Just ahead of the truck was a large touring car which was also loaded with friends of the occupants of the truck. This machine got across all right, but when the heavy truck got midway of the bridge it was heard to make a loud noise as the beams gave way and the truck was precipitated into about ten feet of water. So thickly was the truck crowded said to be carrying thirty or more persons, that few of those who realized the danger were able to jump to safety. Heartrending Scenes The scenes at the point where the drowning occurred were heartrending. As one body after another was litted from the water and distinguished by relatives or intimate friends even the strong men present gave way under the strain. Such an accident happens to a community but once in a long while. There is no way to fit one's self into the dreadful situation. In a small town of a thousand people where everybody knows everybody else and where personal contact is a daily affair, we on the outside can little imagine the effect of the loss upon Homerville of so large a number. Mr. Gaskins, the father of two of the drowned boys and one of the best colored citizens of Homerville, said to a reporter who was there, as he stood at the head of the casket who bore his older son: "Is his my boy" and looking down the line of cold beds "and that is my little one yonder" and I have a sick child at whom we are expecting to die any moment." He paused a moment, shaking his head, and said: "It's not for me to ask the reason why, I must bear it." Mr. Gaskins has a wife and ten more children. Among those drowned were Hardy Brown and his bride of just three weeks, ages 23 and 20, respectively; J. B. and Minnie Hopkins, a young couple, ages 20 years; Bertie Brown and her daughter, Artie Lee, ages 35 and 19, respective; Dennis Hopkins, age 40 years, stepfather of J. B. Hopkins; Jim Gaskins, age 24, and his little brother, Harry, age 12 years; Susie Wells, age 14; Jim Burke, age 40; Charlotte Evans, age 35; Ernest Jackson, Susie Brown, Marie Foster, Effie Wilson. Oust Foreigners From Coal Mines LEMONT FURNACE, Pa. Sept. 22—According to the Federated Press an attempt to replace the Hungarians, Slavs, Poles, Austrians and Italians, who have been working in the coal mines of this vicinity, with men of Anglo-Saxon, Teutonic or Negro operatives is being made by the operators, and the workers, are being brought in by the operators in effort to break the strike RPHA CHARGE 11 LURE BOOZERS TO ROOFTOPS, MOB, MURDER THEM NEW YORK CITY, September 23. New York bandits are using a new method of luring their victims to the roofs of apartment buildings, robbing them, and then killing them, according to Richard Faulkner, white, who was lured to the top of the building at 248 W. 62nd St., robbed, and then beaten, being left for dead. Faulkner has identified James Brooks, 241 W. 53rd Street, as the man who accosted him on the street and asked him if he wanted to buy some whiskey. He was led to a rooftop, where he was attacked by six other men. Two other white men were lured to roofs in W. 59th Street, last Thursday, robbed, and murdered. It is thought that the same method was used. GIRL SHILEDS HER LOVER FROM WILD MAN; IS KILLED CINCINNATI, Ohio, Sept. 23.—Thelma Butler, 17, threw herself between Ora Smoots, her sweetheart, and a drunken white man, Fred Henshaw, when Henshaw attached Smoots Monday night. Her body acted as a shield for her sweetheart, and a bullet from the drunken white's pistol imbedded it in her chest. The two were standing in front of the Butler girl's home when Henshaw, brandishing a revolver, staggered up to a point near the couple and began firing at Smoots. With a scream, the girl placed herself in front of the boy as a shield, a bullet entering her head. The slayer fled, pursued by a crowd of men. He jumped upon the running board of a passing automobile and forced the driver to drive him away. She then blocked the driver said that the liquor store Henshaw, and knocked him from the running board. He was then captured. SHOOTS SWEETHEART IN HEAD. GOES FREE On September 4, 1922, Amanda Stoball of 3837 Vincennes Avenue, shot her sweetheart, Fred Cooper, who lives at 3836 Vincennes Avenue. Cooper was shot through the head and was taken to the Cook County Hospital where his condition was reported to be serious. The girl was arrested by the Stanton Avenue Police and charged with assault with deadly intent to murder. After several continuances she was arraigned before Judge Haas for preliminary hearing at the Harrison Street Court, at which time she was discharged without being held to the grand jury. Attorney William H. Haynes appeared as counsel for the defendant. Woman Born During Washingtons Regime Dies At Age 121 WICHITA, Kan., Sept. 23.—Mrs. Clara Dawson Fountain died at the home of one of her granddaughters four and a half miles from here last week.

Slashes Off Adversary's Coat MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Sept. 23. — Walter Thomas, minus his coattails, appeared at the police station and lodged a complaint against William McLeigh, who had attacked him with a knife and literally cut his coat off his back. INGE 11-YEAR-OLD GIRL HAD MANIA FOR SEEING FIRES Youthful Firebug Author Of Two Disasters, Is Unmoved By Act GILMER, Tex., Sept. 23.—Azalee Jeffrey, eleven-year-old girl who was taken from the juvenile officers of Dallas County and placed for training in the Dickson Orphanage at Gillmer, is the author of two disastrous fires which in the past months have caused a loss of more than $10,000 in buildings to the institution. Burned Girls Dormitory Several weeks ago the people of Texas were shocked to learn of the complete destruction of the girls dormitory by a fire of unknown origin. Investigation disclosed the fact that Azalee Jeffrey was the only person in that portion of the building in which the fire originated but her story, upon being questioned was so convincing that no blame attached to her in connection with it. As a result of this fire all of the girls and babies of the institution were rendered homeless, being compelled many of them to sleep upon the ground for want of other shelter. A total loss and many of the children suffered greatly from nervous shock caused by the panic resulting therefrom. Last week, however, the maniacal desire which seems to be a birthmark of this little girl was discovered when the office building was burned with all of the records of the institution and many of the presidents. Azalee set it afire. She was found shortly before it burst into flames, coming from it with matches in her hands looking back for traces of the blaze which shortly burst forth, completely enveloping the building. She was taken in hand by teachers and after a severe gruelling confession she said, "I just like to see it blaze!" She also confessed to setting fire to the dormitory by tearing open a mattress and lighting its straw contents. Given Back to Officers When seen last Friday morning Rev. Dickson stated that while he was unwilling to again turn the child over to the officers from whom he had received her for training that no other course was open to him. He said: "I hate to do it. This is the first time in the whole history of the institution that we have had to contend with such a child, but I see no other way. She is not to blame, for the desire is a mother work. I believe, even her mother who is living declares that she has set fire to two buildings before and she cannot control her." The child who is winsome, vivacious and apparently normal is unmoved by her experiences. She was brought back to Dallas last week. What will be done with her has not yet been decided. She is eleven years old though with the stature of a child between the ages of seven and eight. THREE KILLED AS SPEEDING AUTO OVERTURNS TRAIN BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 23.

"WRONG MAN" IS FREED AFTER YEAR IN JAIL KELLERFOUND INNOCENT, IS FREED WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 23.—After more than a year of seeking information and investigating the murder of a Mrs. Weber, whose body was found in Maryland, Joseph Keller, a colored man, charged with the commission of the crime, was on Friday September 8, 1922, released from the custody of the Maryand authorities the evidence thus far found not warranting his detention longer. Credit is due to the Prince George Branch of the Maryland A. C. P. as well as the operation of the District of Columbia Branch, for the favorable outcome of this celebrated case. Forced Confession From the time of the arrest the Prince George County Branch used every means to keep in touch with the case as it progressed, while the Washington Branch during his incarceration in the District of Columbia observed closely the third degree process as it was used to force a confession from Keller and instituted steps when extradition proceedings were begun, to have him released. When this failed, and he was carried to Upper Marlboro, Md., the District of Columbia Branch, advised by the Prince George County Branch, was instrumental in interesting the state's attorney, Mr. Kline. From information furnished by the chairman of the Legal Committee, Mr. James A. Cobb, Mr. Kline took up the matter. turned Over to N. A. A. C. P. On invitation of the state's attorney, Mr. Cobb appeared at the first hearing in May, reviewed the evidence with the state's attorney's office and was called in consultation when final reports were made by Maryland detectives and was successful in convincing them that evidence was hacking to further hold Keller. In the last conference with Justice of Peace J. A. Joyces and the state's attorney, Mr. Cobb was advised of the discharge of the prisoner and was asked to assurances that when Keller was discharged he would return a charge upon the state. Mr. Cobb assented to the proposition. Funds were furnished by the District of Columbia Branch for the transportation of Keller to his home in Summerville, S. C. Accompanied by Mr. Shelly J. Davidson, executive secretary of the District of Columbia Branch, and Mr. J. A. G. LuValle of the Washington Tribune, Mr. Cobb appeared at the court house located at Mt. Rainier, Md., and after formalities the release, received Keller in the courtroom at Mt. AIA, Md. After adjournment of court, accompanied by the sheriff and his deputy on either side of the car, Keller was brought into the District of Columbia and sent home the following morning with his brother who had been summoned for the purpose.

Other marked swallows, liberated in England, have been reported from Natal, Orange Free State, Cape Province and the Transvaal. Dr. Bundy In Money Tangle In Cleveland Dr. Bundy In Money Tangle In Cleveland CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 23—Hospitilities have broken out in the Cleveland local branch of the U. N. I. A. over the way Dr. Leroy Bundy, president of the branch, has been handling the financial affairs of the organization. With Dr. Bundy, Secretary Wesley Holder is also being questioned. Dr. Bundy settled in Cleveland after being freed of charges involving the East St. Louis race riots. According to the Cleveland Advocate, on August 1 Dr. Bundy and Executive Secretary Wesley McD. Holder toured to New York in a splendid new Haynes sedan. A few hours after the president of the local branch and his executive secretary left the city the reality company that controls the property located at 5912 Central Avenue, otherwise known as Liberty Hall, placed a very conspicuous sign, "For Rent," on the buildings. An investigation by a committee showed that there was six months' arrears in the rent and numerous other bills unpaid, among them $30 on chairs and a like amount on the piano used by the local. It is said by the committee that Dr. LeRoy Bundy said he must have $20 spending money a day while in New York, and by reports and statements led the people to believe their bills had been left paid in full and that everything would be all right when he and the executive secretary were out of the city. When President Bundy and Executive Secretary Holder came to a meeting last Sunday afternoon, one of the officials of the division asked of President Bundy an explanation of the way he handled the members' money. The audacity of this man who was asking for information out of interest for the welfare of the membership so infuriated President Bundy (who is now also first vice-president of the entire U. N. I. A.) that he left his elevated position and grappled on the boor. The speaker's name was Roy Davis. Then a general free for all eight ensued. Chairs and bottles flew through space. Several men and women fled from the hall. In the general uproar several combatants were struck over the forehead with bottles and as a result two men are now in City Hospital. It is said the executive secretary made a hasty retreat backward from a second story window when some of the angered members made a rush into him. "Where has the money gone?" was shouted from all parts of the hall.

It is a 32-page booklet, entitled, "The Next Emancipation," written by James Oneal, and published by The Emancipation Publishing Company, of New York City. "The Next Emancipation," referred to in the pamphlet, is, of course, the coming emancipation from wage slavery. The pamphlet explains clearly just why the emancipation of the Negroes from chattel slavery did not solve the Negro problem. It is a labor problem—and the problem of Negro workers and white workers is one and the same problem. The Socialist program of transferring the great industries from private ownership and operation to social ownership and operation—and forever abolishing the robbery of the many by the few—is explained.

BUT NO BLACK MAN WAS ON THE BOAT NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 23.—One of the peculiar statements made by passengers who arrived on the French Line Steamship, "Lorraine," which arrived Monday from Havre was by Mrs. N. A. Davidson, who says she had been insulted during the voyage by a Black man when there are no colored employees whatsoever on any of the passenger boats of the French Line. Mrs. Davidson reported the loss of a pearl necklace worth $10,000 to $20,000, and the indecent behavior of a Black man supposedly a member of the crew whom she said used language to her that was "very bad induced." "My husband would have killed him," said Mrs. Davidson, who said the man thrust his head and arms through the porthole of her state-room. Mrs. Davidson, who formerly lived in Indianapolis, but has been in Paris most of the last two years is the wife of an Englishman in British Government service. She said when she went to bed last Monday night she put the necklace, with other valuables in a reticule on her burean. She did not lock her door, and when she arose next morning the necklace was missing, but none of the other jewelry. Officers of the French Line denied and member of the crew showed any disrespect to Mrs. Davidson. They further said La Lorraine has no Negro in the crew and none of their ships employs them, all seamen and other employees being white Frenchmen.

Representative Haitians, upon finding the backers fully responsible and qualified for big business at once offered alluring inducements and valuable concessions and a conference between the parties concerned warranted the organization of the OVERSEA NAVIGATION CORPORATION to effect regular service between American and Haitian ports and the OVERSEA TRADING COMPANY to supply the immense Haitian needs which will grow out of the large American loan of $40,000,000 for the development of the island republic. Opportunity for Banks The new companies will have their offices at 80 Wall Street, New York City. All business will be transacted through the colored banks and each bank has been asked to assist in the underwriting of the project. A small block of stock, however, will be available to the general public. This is practically the first time that colored banks have had an opportunity to depart from the usual real estate and mortgage business, and enjoy the huge profits common among white banking institutions engaged in the promotion of international commerce and the colored bankers have not been slow to take advantage of the situation. Capable Men at Helm That the new companies are being operated by trained business men after the most approved modern business methods is indicated by the brilliant moves made so far and by the roster of its officials which include the names of such widely known and capable men as Charles E. Mitchell, president, and also president of the Mutual Savings & Loan Co. of Charleston, W. Va., Anthony Crawford, vice-president and managing director, a ship operator and importer and exporter of long experience; Major William H. York, secretary, former ex-commercial officer; Col. James M. Cany, treasurer, and also vice-president of the Mutual Savings & Loan Co. of Charleston; L. Melandez King, attorney, also examiner in chancery, District of Columbia, and Napoleon J. Francis, director Port au Prince, Haiti. Homeless Man Collapses Henry Killum, 18, Shreveport, La, while seeking employment here, collapsed Saturday on State Street, near 32nd.

COP SHOOTSHOOCH FROM HAND OF FLEEING 'SHINER SAVANNAH, Ga., Sept. 23—When prohibition agents raided stills in the Black Ankle District last week an unidentified man escaped, taking with him a quart of whiskey and on the pin he waved it at the officers, yelling "You can't get this." One of the raiders, an expert marksman, realizing that what the fleeing moonshiner said was true, pulled his automatic, and taking aim, splintered the bottle with one shot.

CAGO KU KLUX SEND EDITORS 2nd DEATH WARRANT JANUARY 1 IS EDITORS' LAST DAY, SAY KLUX NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 23—As further proof that the human hand received by A. Philip Randolph, coeditor of The Messenger Magazine 2305 Seventh Avenue on September 5 did actually come from New Orleans La. Mr. Randolph, Tuesday morning September 12, received the following letter whose outside postmark was that of New Orleans for the date of September 6: "SEPT. 6, 1922 YOU WILL NEVER LIVE TO SEE IAN L. 1923 FOR WE DON'T want NIGGERS LIKE YOU HERE Your report K. K. K." This letter is unmistakably from New Orleans. It was all written in red typewriter ink in capital letters except "Your gang goes to K. K. K" which "Your gang" was script and "Goes to—K. K. K." was printed in ink. The envelope was addressed to "Mr. Philip Randolph, editor, Negro Monthly, New York City, N. Y." It was addressed in black typewriting. There was no number and the envelope had been to several different. There was no number and the envelop-mark was "New Orleans, La, Sept. 6, 1922, 8. P. M." Mr. Randolph also turned this over to authorities of the law and expressed himself as believing that it was genuinely his Blake纹itter and coming direct from the South. Carries Gun However, 'he is wisely cautious and has secured a permit to carry a gun. He will not in the least check up on his efforts against Garvey, but will fight him more relentlessly. Also, last Friday, came a long letter to Messrs. Randolph and Ownt with both their photographs enclosed, evidently clipped from the back page of the July Messenger, saying they were traitors to their race and they would die the death of a food. It further declared that "Hon. Marcus Garvey" is the only black man of the '70s. The police also have it in hand for investigation, which was written in a fair hand, but殁ed of pointillism, and signed "U. N. I. A. Member." The letter follows. Garveyite's Letter Randolph and Owen: This to inform you two Negroes that we the people of Philadelphia have seen what you have put in the white paper. But let me say something the K. K. won't have to come from New Orleans to get you. You will get gotten right here in the city. You will have to race our race. Negroes have been traitors to their race for 300 years and we decided once for all that wherever a traitor is found she or he shall die the death of a fool. Showing the letter to the police of New York, that won't save you. You two Negroes have taken up a load that you can't carry and you won't be able to put it down. You ignore these letters that is written to you, that will be all right. I would say that myself if I did not know any better. You two Negroes have made all the attacks on Mr. Garvey; he has not made one on you. But you shall pay heavy for it. You spoke of your soulism. Black people don't need socialism. We need a government to protect us from the tropes (Bullets) (Cassino) that what Be causes you two Negroes can go among the white people and get money from them, that's why you try to food the narrowed Negroes.

One theater, the Auditorium, stopped its show, "Strut Miss Lizzie," and told more than 2,000 patrons to return for any show this week, while the other two continued their performances by candle light. Defective coal was blamed by the management of the Congress hotel, in the basement of which is the power plant supplying light to the two hotels and three theaters, for the darkness. Brand Face Of Klan Victim With "K" Brand Face Of Klan Victim With "K" CHAMBERSBURG, Pa., Sept. 15.—William Hollingworth, a laborer of Waynesboro, seventeen miles from here, who was taken out Wednesday night and mistreated by masked men robed like the Ku-Klinx Klan, and the letter "K" branded on each cheek and his forehead, was at his home today recovering from the attack. Contrary to first reports, he was not branded with fire, but with a chemical, which may not leave scars. There is no clew to the identity of the fifteen or twenty men Hollingworth said attacked him. Cruelty to Mother Their Excuse According to his account, he was taken to a field at Smithburg and branded because he is alleged to have cruelly treated his mother, now in the poorhouse at Chambersburg. His hair was cut in a grotesque manner, and one side of his mustache was cut off. When he denied being cruel to his mother he was beaten with picks; rope was tied about his wrist; there was talk among his captors of hanging him. The white-robed men left him in the field and he found his own way home. CASUALTY COMPANY ENTER THE NATION'S CAPITAL The Supreme Life & Casualty Company of Columbus, Ohio, has just received from Hon.

Member FEW REALIZE 8TH'S UNIQUE POSITION By Lieut. Matthew R. Johnson. The general public knows very little about a military organization, especially our own "Old 8th," aside from ceremonies and parades. A greater appreciation would result if we gave more thought to its importance in a community. For instance, as a military organization, we have a double function; first, the protection of our country from enemies from without, second, the supporting of civil authorities in safeguarding the public peace when it is threatened by enemies from within. Those who compose this organization are men who aside from their daily vocations are enthusiastic and patriotic enough to give several hours of their time two or three evenings studying the sciences of military arts. Is Federalized The 8th Infantry Illinois National Guard is an institution supported by our government and trained by men of our Race under the supervision and co-operation of regular army officers, whom the government assigns to each military organization, after he has qualified as an army instructor from one of the service schools where modern sciences of warfare are experimented with and adopted by the war college, he, the instructor in turn concludes that the unit to which he is assigned, thereby imparting the knowledge he has gained to those who, in turn impart the same to the enlisted personnel. Only One of Its Kind It is quite surprising to note, that here in our midst there are any number of persons, who do not know the significance of our organization and what it portrays; and further, that is the only colored unit of its kind in the United States authorized by the War Department and officered from the colonel down by men of our Race From that let us impose a clear conception and show proper appreciation for the wonderful opportunity that was allowed to perfect such an organization, after it had been declared by the past administration that there would be no more colored combat troops. We are endeavoring to "carry on" and the more intricate conditions are the more urgent we are to prove to those interested, that we can supply that which is necessary, intelligent and patriotic men to represent us. Men whose integrity and judgment can be relied upon. The traditions of the "Old 8th" and some of its former leaders should be the standard for the young colored youth and should exhilarate his patriotism.

Eason JurymenScore Mob, But Fail To Indict It WACO, Tex., Sept. 22.—The September grand jury sitting here took occasion to condemn the action of a mob defiled the body of Jesse Thomas alleged murderer of Harrell Bolton. Bolton was killed escorting a woman who was alleged to have been attacked after Bolton's killing. Jesse Thomas taken as the suspect to the home of the woman was identified by her as the guilty man. The woman's father then killed Thomas and his body was removed to an undertaking establishment. The mob enraged because it had lost the opportunity to lynch Thomas stormed the body, set up a court and public square and then dragged the partially burned body through the streets. The grand jury was especially charged to investigate the Bolton murder but not enough evidence was adduced to justify any indictment. The grand jury report reads in part as follows: "In connection with the Bolton murder the consensus of opinion of the grand jury is that Bolton came to his death at the hands of a Negro answering the description of Jesse Thomas. However, there has been considerable evidence presented to condemn jury that would leave doubt as to the guilt of Jesse Thomas. "In connection with the killing of Jesse Thomas we wish to condemn the action of the mob in dragging his body through the streets of Waco and afterwards burning the same and urge all law abiding citizens to uphold the law at all times."

FORD SHUT DOWN IS CAUSE OF HUGE INFLUX HERE At least six or seven men a day come into the employment offices of the Chicago-Urbian League from Detroit. Their testimony is that the automobile business with the exception of the Ford Company is suffering a slump in the fall and winter, therefore the men during this season go to other places seeking work. It is probable that a much larger number of men come into the offices of the Chicago-Urbian League. If the factory, employing a large number of Black men, has any for any one length of time a large number of men may be expected from that source. The Ford Company heretofore has been the one big plant in the automobile industry in Detroit which has been running throughout the year since the demand for Ford cars is constant rather than seasonable.

L STATION 4 ONE OF US IS A LIAR, SAYS WM. PICKENS By William Pickens Did you ever play those little puzzle games, wherein you have to "find" something that is hard to find? Well, I am going to give you a puzzle. It is "Find the Liar." There are just two of us: MARCUS GARVEY and WILLIAM PICKENS. And one of us is the liar. For he says that I was a "job hunter," and I say that his "jobs" have been hunting me for many seasons, and that they continued to hunt me right up to the minute when I gave them the coup de grace by flatly, publicly and incontinently rejecting his recent effort to make me the Duke of Uganda or something. He had never been to Uganda, and never will be), and I did not want to be its "Duke" by becoming his "dupe." I told him so, and altho he had offered me the biggest job in the "African Republic" for years, and right up to the minute when I wrote him "fatly," he prints in his paper that I was a "job hunter." One Must Be Lying Now, one of us is lying, because in formal logic, nothing can be both is and ain't at the same time. And how, dear reader, are you to "find the Liar"? Well, I am going to give you the chance of your life right now. I have been away on vacation, far from my letter files, in which are packed a whole string of Garvey " jobs" that have been pursuing me still to get a number to give to a soup. The best one to give you, is the one which reached me just a few weeks before I turned down his offer to "be-night" me. The Letter Mr. William Pickens, 260 West 139th Street, New York City. My read Mr. Pickens: I have to write you again in the matter of our organization. As you are doubtless aware, our 3rd International Convention comes off from the 1st to the 31st August of the present year. We are expect- ing the biggest gathering of Negroes assembled at this Convention. Our delegation will be coming from the four farmers of the globe. The matters to be discussed will be of vital interest, and importance to this race of ours. We are to elect and appoint our new leaders, and knowing your feeling on the matter of Negro progress, I feel it my duty to write you asking that you arrange to be a Delegate to this Convention, and to give us your time for the month of August. You will remember the conversation I had with you bearing on the work of the Organization. We have lined up some of the ablest men of the country for our new administration, those to be in our new cabinet. I feel that a bigger work awaits you in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, than in any other movement of the race at this time, in that our program is so colossal, so far reaching, and effects so many hundreds of millions of people, that it is necessary to have the biggest minds of the race to direct its destiny. You will have absolutely no cause for not throwing in your lot with the Association in this great world movement. Please be good enough to consider the matter, and let us expect you at our Convention as one of the future forces of this great international movement. As you know, there is always a place for you in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and not at the foot, but at the very head, in that we can appreciate service, and feel that there are very few Negroes today who are better able to serve the race than you. I write to you in a friendly way, because I know that your heart beats right, and I feel the same toward you. I will be leaving town for a trip to the car West and the South, which will keep us out until the date of July, but you will please reply to this letter immediately, and address it c/o Moya Amy Jacques, who is my Private Secretary, and she will forward it to me, so that I can communicate with you from afar. Understand that we are looking forward to your presence at the Convention, and we are planning to have you be one of the biggest leaders of the movement. I trust no entanglements will pre- vail you from serving at that time. President-General, Universal Negro Improvement Association. Anderson and Wright Back Home Alderman L. B. Anderson and E.

Smith Industry Awakens Since Fall has arrived, optimism prevails among business men of this city which is all that can be expected. The rail strike is nearing its end, and the men are returning to work in large numbers. Lines are placing large orders for equipment which, of course, will be needed to turn. Retail business is improving measurably. Collections are somewhat better. Good Times Ahead Reports from sections where crop movements are heavy show that those who look for good times again are not wrong. Colored People Benefit The colored man is getting some ready cash and is spending it for the first time in many 'months, which makes the demand good for groceries and other items that are necessities. One thing is particularly noticeable, and that is the colored man is not purchasing luxurious items, which was noted during the war. Prices are about the same than during the war, and in months. Business conditions everywhere are far from normal, but are decidedly "on the mend."

United States Warning The eye sight Conservation Council of America reports, together with the writers observation, that a normal human eye must use 40 per cent of nerve energy to see, leaving only 60 per cent for all other functions of human body. That 80 per cent of our population are using excess nerve force to see correctly, and are actually compensated instinctively, by the 60 per cent of nerve force that nature gave for the use of the body only. This robs the body of its natural power of resistance of diseases, weakens the mental and moral power, dethrones the will and reason, brings on physical illness, nervous diseases, stomach trouble, head ache, and moral degeneration. A strict master — she never gives up more than she intends in one direction, with out over balanced account, by extracting more from some other, than it is willing to pay out. Science has been trying for 100 years to overcome this appalling error, but has found no means save one—LENSES—lenses belong to the same law of physics as the science of eye sight. The American Conservation Council of eye sight, issues orders for every man, woman and child to have their eye sight examined once each year, and correct lenses adapted thereto, to save the nation from physical, mental and moral decadence.

A., one of the prominent leaders, once associated with Marcus Garvey. President General of the great African Movement, but who has been dropped from his position because Garvey could not control or ush him. Dr. Eason will tell the people of the inside workings of the Association and how the people's money has been wasted and sent out of America because Garvey has absolute control of the funds to do as he pleases. Other speakers like Dr. Gibson of N. Y. J. Burtler, Esq. of Monrovia, Africa Rev. Green, Ex-President of the Chicago Division, Atty. Eugene Marshall of Chicago, Mrs. Covington, Real Estate manager. The above named gentlemen will be here on the 28th and 29th of秋. Mr. Grabriel H. Johnson, major of Monrovia, Liberia, South Africa, is spending a few days in the windy city and will leave the latter part of the week to conclude his tour of America. He has selected Miss Emily C Kinch of Philadelphia, Pa., as his private secretary. "NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL OI N OSEY WAS in the city's finest South Side hostie in the evening and saw a distinguished looking gentleman who has maintained that he is from South America somewhere and most everybody calls him by his name or title which seems to be Lord or Count or Duke, but mostly Count. He was insulted by a slim young dapper man from the East. In a manner much like one of the Dukes of old telling his rival to meet him on the field of honor the Count told the he must pay the price of insulting him. He insisted and proper but not with swords or duelling pistols—just their bare fists. Who won? Ah, they both claim victory and the bystanders are divided in their opinion. Nosey's decision? he is neutral. He knows both gentlemen . . . ON HER WAY from one of the little dances, Nosey saw a pretty little matron take a street car. Nosey followed in his little fluyer. She rode a block, then took a taxi and rode ten blocks, walking five more and there she met a pale faced gentleman who had evidently been waiting for some time. He did not speak to her as she passed by him and entered a waiting limousine, which drove off and circled the block returning for the pale faced man. This was on the Northwest Side. The limousine took the man to a beautiful flat building. Nosey grew tired of waiting and then called on the lady's house and was informed by the husband that his wife was over to her father's house. Nosey smiled and mumbled, "Father's house." The hubby was right and yet he was wrong. . . . SOME PEOPLE think that the beaches are closed, but that is not the fact as Nosey thought that he would get a little fresh air and he alone. When he reached the beach near the "Ink Well" he heard all sorts of voices and all sorts of noises even though the air was chill. Several parties were in progress and had called to the aid of their comfort tire and large blankets, and several bottles of liquid cheer. One of the ladies, lost her hat in the water and one the gallants tried to retrieve it and was almost chilled to the bone and required all of the liquid fire to get him warm again. The police came along and the beach was crowded. The law can really make the darkness give up its secrets. . . . EVERYBODY IS talking about the married man who decides that he had to leave his wife he cause of her actions. He has swing like the old pendulum and now is doing those things that he accused his wife of doing. She has beat him to it and tied suit for divorce and has named one of the high society ladies as the correspondent. The old hubby is now truying his hest to get the wife to either come back or withdraw her suit. He claims now that he really loves her, but she says that all he wants is to get an opportunity to beat her up. Funny how the hubby feels when he is actually caught at his own game. . . . YOU CAN NEVER tell from the lady's rear just how old she is. Nosey was following a young society man the other day and saw that he was on the trail of a lady who was trapping along in front. She had short dresses and was dolled up to the minute. The man finally reached the lady and doffed his hat. Then he turned on his heel and almost ran in the opposite direction. Nosey wondered what the lady had said to the man. Then Nosey looked at the aged face of the lady and knew that she did not have to say a word. Her face was her protection anywhere. It is a hard matter to tell the girls from the old ladies from the rear. Planning Eastern Trip A bunch of young married folks are planning going to Washington, D.C.

We had only listened a, few moments until we were well convinced that the speaker was one of those Mar- cus Garvey propagandists, which was, in all probability, responsible for the large out-door congregation. The best part we saw, and what we enjoyed mose was the frantic efforts op the part of the sisters to, show to the parson that they really appreciated the'r trip to the “Church” cause he was preaching SOME sermon, For a white, however, it looked like we were going’ to have a few serious mishaps. Scon after we took our “seat” we were attracted by an awiul conslomoration, {ooking we saw one of the sisters chits- ing her husband with umbrella, hatpin and everything else available. “On in- ‘vestization we learned that the brother ‘had payed entirely too much attention to a young flapper’s attempt to board a street car, and according to withesse- ‘it would not have been 20 serio it the old brother had not gone overt help the flapper oa: the car | Now back to the sermon.

G, “Ned” Gourdin of Harvard has.again taken the national A. A. U. Pentathlon. This makes the second consecutive time in as many starts that Ned has captured this event. We are told that Gourdin had a narrow ‘escape in capturing the “medal this ‘time, but after all what is the difference so long as you cop. for after all an inch in athletics mean as much as a ‘mile. It all depends upon whjch end it happens to be. If you lose by an inch you are dethroned jnat the same, while should you cop with a mile to spare you have only taken first place. We are with Ned 100% for several reasons, in the first place he fas knocked asunder the thing that seems to be an everlasting jinx to the Negro athlete, when he not only keeps his class record clean to the effect that he is able to compete in all the schools important meets but continues his good record for several years, even ‘iter starting his post graduate work he 's able to evade the scholastic, barrier. It is something that several white stu- dents are and have been doing for some time, but few negroes scem to be able to. What is the trouble? Are they given the same chanee? Perhaps not. Yet we have go proof to the contrary, $0 let us hand it to Gourdin--its great work, reerrdless of the circumstances.

The Justins got away to an early lead in the first three innings, but could not hold it, the Tigers scoring a total of 7 runs in the 4th and Sth frames, Toney, who pitched for the losers, was stingy ith his hits in the early innings, but a barrage of wallops, including a pair of homers by Macklin and Fields, proved too much for the flinger and he was casy the rest of the way, until Hayden relieved him.

Last year Gourdin was winner in New York with the low score of 13 points, but today in championship event he made the remarkable record of 10 points, ‘thus averaging a good second in the five events.

HEALTH HINTS Most cases of appendicitis can be prevented if the proper precautions are carried out before the first attack, ‘This disease is such a serions one that everyone showld be interested in its prevention; the old adage, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of curc,” applies to appendicitis, because after the disease is in progress an operation is always necessary before a permanent cure is had. cee . Each year more and more is learned concerning appendicitis, Now it is a positive known fact that constipation is a potent factor in causing ap- pendicitis. Constipation aids in the developing of appendicitis in two way. (1) The presence of fecal masses around the toot of the appendix interiers with its circulation and predisposes the appendix to inflamations, (2) ‘The fetention of fecal matter in the bowel causes also the retention of infective inatter in the Iumen of the appendix Diseased tonsils and adenoids predispose to appendicitis and these should he cured as a preventive measure. ‘The same may be said of infections of the teeth and tooth-sockets, gall-bladder infections, and ulcers of the stomach and intestines, Ns the discase is most prevalent between the ages of five and thirty years, and in those who are particularly disposed to tonsillitis and so-called rheumatic disease, these ages and conditions should receive special consideration. ‘Again it has been observed that the vietims of appendicitis are large con- sumers of meats. In comparison, patients who live on farinaceous foods, legumes, macaroni, butter, milk, cheese, with a plenty of green vexctables, and who do moderate and’ systematic work in the open air, are least subject to the disease. Alcohol or alcoholic drinks help to bring on appendicitis The oid idea that appendicitis was caused by swallowing grape sceds and other seeds, cherry pits, czg shells, particles of bones, pins, ete. is rapidly passing out of view, Out of 485 patients operated on for acyte and chronic appendicitis only in four cases were foreign bodies found. ‘Appendicitis seems to run in_certain families, ‘Those who have had appendicitis in their families as well as others should pay strict attention to their diet, Along with the precautions mentioned above, excessive amounts of sugars and sweets should he eliminated from the diets and when micats are eaten they should along with the other food be thoroughly masticate, The present generation is eating their food too hurriedly. ‘The best prevention against appendicitis then, i therefore, to eliminate constipation, masticate the food thoroughly and use a mixed diet containing plenty of vegetables and very little meats, climinate all routes of injection, such as bad teeth, tonsils, adenoids, cte; and live a simple life with methodical work in the open air.

UNDER TuIP OTK YS “iif W 00,87 f x Wigs) Xe Ses Aiea 4, : Sac) a By i Coy A column of constructive criticism of men and measures in the hone of correcting errors and evils. President Harding has appointed a white man to the Governor- ship of the Virgin Isles. These small islands are populated mostly by black people and we had been led to hope that Mr. Harding would send one of us down there to guard over our own, but that is not: his way. We are not dismayed at this policy and the conduct of the President of this nation. We rather expected just this “‘modus oper- andi.” This p resent age of Republican politicians is not much in favor of giving us a square deal, but verily we will not forget them at the next election. Even the “old timers” are sorely nettled, and idle threats are not the order of the day. . Ignorance cannot triumph forever, and last week R. E. Parker, an illiterate, verbose black man, who has embarassed us by forcing his way to the front and in the public eye, was sentenced to serve ten days in the house of correction in Chicago for practicing law with- out alicense. This type of gibbering, but criminally keen individual ‘causes us all to suffer chagrin and shame. This quondam editor, lawyer and candidate for everything from dog catcher to congress- man is a menace to the black people of Chicago, and should be scorned by all who want recognition and respect in this city. * ‘ " In New York a stir is created in the district of black people be- cause of attempts to segregate in the public libraries. In Pittsburgh disturbance arises because of efforts to establish Jim Crow bathing beaches. In Chicago we do not have these difficulties because there is no library at all in the neighborhoods of the black people, and_ the bathing beach for their community has been justly styled “the Ink Well.” , 8 An Independent Newspaper — Published Every Week VOL, Iv. _ SEPTEMBER 23rd, 1922 No. 38 rublished by rHE MAC NEAL PUBLISHING COMPANY (Incorporated) Chicago Office: 3420 STATE STREET Phone VICTORY 4606 eee e —— JOS.

WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. / Whether you approve of gambling or not, it is an irrefutable fact that this practice has stultified the minds of our peole. It has weakened their group strength, it has broken the morale of their civic institutions and now we find ourselves in consternation, chagrin and dismay. As we witness a much abused and oppressed people who would shatter their fetters and demand unconditional recognition from civilization, as we see them guilelessly allowing themselves to become ‘enmeshed in the serpentine coils of gambling, we cannot help but shudder. It requires no great imagination to picture the ruined and wrecked structure of human clay which could have been moulded into men of power and men of might, who might have defeated the invisible empire of enemies and brought down the spontaneous plaudits of the world. If the black man of America would hesitate and pause during the shuffle of the cards and the clatter of the dice, they would realize that fifteen million white Europeans are seeking to grapple in America for their jobs and bread. They would realize that anti-black propa- ganda is being scattered indiscriminately throughout the world. They would realize that in the northern states of America that they stand “on trial” beforethe cynical and prejudiced Caucasian. It follows that they must make good and they must discharge from their per- sonal, private and public environments each and every influence which will retard and disintegrate. Gambling is not peculiar to race of creed. Some form or specie of it exists wherever man is found. It is neither characteristic of the rich nor the poor. It is the inherent evil streak in humanity which devitalizes and destroys. Almost every transaction in the affairs of life involves the chance element. Every investment has associated with it the chance of either winning or losing. When energy has the latitude to lessen the degree of chance and make success reasonably certain, then society condones the chance element, but where the chances for winning or losing are equal, when energy and intelli- gence play little part and some caprice of fate or luck is eft to control the precious gold of life, then society stands aghast and both law and religion register their dissatisfaction. In Chicago—the Elysian fields of those who seek refuge from burnings, lynchings and fratricide—where the philosophy and psy- chology of the new age seeks foothold one would expect to find those pilgrims from the haunted south guarded, shielded and pro- tected. One woud also expect to see those who were born here engaged in the great task of building up their struggling race. One woud expect to find seriousness, earnestness and morality in the majority. Yet one finds that the communities populated to large extents by black peope are the very cesspools of vice and infamy. You see unearned dollars changing hands and gambling conducted notoriously unmolested, protected by political systems which reflect on the administration, the commonwealth and the people. Every public official disgorges the blame, yet everyone knows “that the Monte Carlo of the south side” is the product of a crooked, unholy system which makes Chicago the ‘“‘devil town’ of America. We do not need the intuitive or deductive ability of a criminol- cogist to know that the broken, hungry, outcast gambler is easily con- verted into the bloodthirsty, merciless highwayman and prowling, reckless footpad. The gambling tables with t heir hypnotic green baize drive a red, ferocious danger stare into the eyes of the loser. ‘The laborer loses both job and hope. He becomes driftwood on the sea of iniquity and his fellow black worker is unreasonably forced to suffer for his delinquency. The professional man who has lost maltreats and neglects his trusting clients. Unkempt children with wan faces and emaciated bodies give silent but terrible rebuke to the sins of their fathers. The whole system of our civic life has become infected with this contagion of gambling which sweeps like wild fire through the ranks of our much battered army. In the name of civilization, law and order, we implore the in- fluences of goodness and morality to free us from this terrible in- stitution of gambling which fattens the political profiteer as he mercilessly snatches his toll from the trembling fingers of the wretched. The young men of Chicago, if they would be saved must link them- selves with the inevitable forces which will start the next crusade on the gambling in cur community. Let us dethrone the devil god of gambling whose political throne can be found somewhere in Chi- chgo'e Southside: A great change was wrought in America known as the Indus- trial Revolution. This change came immediately following the Civil ‘War. It was the adoption of machines to do the work formerly done by hand. It was the first step in the economic evolution of this coun- try. Now the black race is changing drastically from the use of the mouth into the use of the pen. Men who formerly prided them- selves and were prided by the public as being great speakers are now writing their thoughts and circulating them broadcast to their people. It is the first step in mental evolution and marks the begin- ning of the new day when the black people will be swayed by real facts and not flamboyant fancies. Some of our recent prize orators are reading and thinking and setting their thoughts into ink and type. They are no longer open- ing their mouths upon every available opportunity with the expec- tancy that “God will fill it.” It means that the black people are becoming more intelligent and that they are reasoning from cause to effect and effect to cause. ‘The spoken language does not remain in the minds of men and does not burn itself into their souls as does the,written word. The slippery mind of human kind scon loses the effect of oratorical flight but sincere, sober written word lives forever. We welcome the change from mouth to hand.
