"BIG SIX" GOES WEST TO GET SAM ELLIOT ENDS LOVE TRIANGLE WITH Southside's "Great" Paper Silent On Vice --- PRICE 5 CENTS SMOKE-SCREEN RAIDS PALLIATE PUBLIC AS VICE "MARCHES ON" Mouthpiece of Public Conspicuous by Silence On Issue; Vice-Lords Laugh Up Their Sleeves As Dens Thrive VOL. IV.—No. 39. ENDS Souths SMOKE-SCI PALLIATE VICE "MA Mouthpiece of Public C On Issue; Vice-Lor Sleeves As Vice on the south side of Chicago, where the black people live and are striving to succeed, has aroused almost every civic institution to start crusades and onslaughts against it. Committees have been appoint<sup>4</sup>, investigators sent out, petitions have been prepared, the ministers even set aside an "Anti-Vice Sunday," and each one preached a sermon against the vice in Chicago. Those newspapers which seemed to have the interest of their readers at heart have made dissolutions in evictions which aroused the city to enact a law of vice continued apparently unhalted, unchecked and unhammered. Great Paper Silent The greatest paper published by and in the interest of black people has yet to use its power and influence against these terrible conditions which everybody in Chicago knows about. This paper, even though it calls itself the mouthpiece of the black race, and the 'defender' of the people, has yet to utter against the gambling and prostitution in the districts populated by its traders and supporters. Even though a new gambling den has thrown open its doors within a few feet of this city, the police and a house of prostitution operates directly in front of its office, still this paper does not print a word against vice and specify the dives which have made the south side of Chicago the cesspool of the city and the dumping ground of its filth and dirt. Why? As the church arises against these conditions and the better class of citizens petition and pray the silence and non-p concern of this great weekly paper becomes suspicious and omnivorous. Are the vice lords paying a weekly stipend for the silence and "lay off" methods, or do crooked political affiliations forbid the press to tell truth or is it that publishers have become so morally lax that they do not care and have adopted the policy of "to hell" with the public? The public knows that "world's greatest week" has failed to join in the vice tight and it seems that something is wrong. What is it? Dollars, politics or back of moral courage? Smoke Screen Raids In the meantime raids have been conducted upon the smaller and comparatively insignificant dens while larger ones insignificant are still running without molestation. WIFE INJURED, MAN BEATEN, RESISTING COP When Patrolman Strontherds, of the Stinson Avenue Station, attempted to arrest Matthew Bolden, 3857 State Street, Saturday night at 39th and State Streets, he found himself resisted by both Bolden and his wife, Mrs. Lela Bolden. While Bolden struggled with the officer, Mrs. Bolden attempted to snatch his pistol from his holster. The policeman was the quickest of the three, however. He wrenched the gun from Mrs. Bolden's fingers, and pummed Bolden in the face with the butt of the gun. In the scuffle Mrs. Bolden's fingers were badly wrenched. SEGREGATION IN BOSTON BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 30.—It is alleged that efforts are being made here to weed out all non-white students from the "exclusive" Washington Grammar School. N.A.A.C.P. SILENT AS LYNCH BILL FACES DEATH NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 30—After flooding the country with irradiated aerosmors that the Dyer Antiblock Bill would be passed, at the session of Congress which has just come to an end, officials of the N. A. A. C. P. were silent when the final gavel fell without consideration of the measure. Deap disappointment prevailed in the offices of the organization as Congress neared its close and the death of the bill seemed inevitable. It was confidently expected that with the objections as to constitutional bill would be passed without trouble. The apparent reluctance of the Senate to pass the bill as it now stands gives rise to the belief that it is finally dead. WOMAN'S TENDER FEET START DANCE RIOT WOMAN'S TENDER FEET START DANCE RIOT BIRMINGHAM, Aha., Sept. 30—Two men were shot, one probably initially, and the other slightly wounded, when Will Green of 817 Seventeenth Street, South, went on a rampage in a crowded dance hall at 4 Short Fourteenth Street. The two injured men, Boisy Watts, who resides on the upper floor of the hall, and Vennie Lee Bagby, 1003 Avenue D. were taken to Hillman Hospital. Watts had his right arm broken, the bullet which caused the fracture to his right knee and lodging in his shoulder. The woman was shot in the back, although she is not seriously wounded, hospital authorities said. Watts was reported in a dangerous condition last night. According to Detectives M. K. McAdory and W. F. Lee, the trouble started when Will Green stepped on the toes of Vennie Lee Bagby while dancing. Vennie Lee is said to have given Will a forceful step, following which Will brought his artillery into play, wounding Vennie Lee and Watts, who were arrested at the time. Green arrested at the time and is being held at the city jail on two counts of assault with intent to Elliot Rice and Miss Sadie Paddon took a flier at free love. Police say they were living together as man and wife at 546 E. 45th Place. When the adventure grew monotonous, Rice ended the romance by slashing his sweetheart under the eye. The stabbing took place Saturday. When placed under arrest, Elliot gave his address as 3817 Vincennes Ave. GIRL SUES FATHER LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 30—Ella Ennis has brought suit to restrain her father from further drawing money from her employer, two by Mr. Mary Eunits, deceased. CHICAGO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30th, 1922. 'RACHAEL' TURNS TO RICHARD AS WIG IS REMOVED COLUMBIA, S. C., Sept 30—Richard Watson, a robust man, who short time ago was known as "Rachael," is now doing time in the city prison on a charge of disorderly conduct. Richard worked as a cook and mamed in various homes, where he conducted himself properly. It was only when a woman remarked: "Rachael certainly is funny that the police became suspicious. He was garbed from head of foot in women's attire, and so complete was his disguise that people living in the same house with him had no suspicion of his sex. Members of the household where he worked as a cook were considerably aroused when the police took him in charge. Richard says he had been wearing women's clothing for ten years. He first wore an apron, then a bit of ribbon tempted him. Next he put on a dress; then came a wig, and finally a brooch, a lavailer, and other articles of clothing. In the adjustment, the competition in the women's world not so keen in as the men's world, so he continued to appear as a woman. His home is in Danville, Va., but he has been working as maid and cook for several months in this city and has a good reputation as a domestic servant. City To Pay $5000 For Mob's Act ABILENE, Kas., Sept. 30.—William Bradley, a porter of the Rock Island Railroad at Herrington, Kas., who was kidnapped by a hand of striking shopman, taken into the country and beaten, has been given judgment for $5,000 damages against the city. He sued the city for $20,000 under the law. The demonstration against Bradley was made because he refused to leave his job during the shopman's strike. The state law under which Bradley obtained judgment is similar to the anti-ban law now pending in Con- MAN KILLS WIFE AS SHE AND DAUGHTER SEEK MEXICANS --- PITTSBURG, Pa., Sept. 30—Robert Neal has been convicted of second degree murder here for the killing of his wife, Mrs. Belle Neal last March. When placed on the stand Neal told a touching story of how his wife and 17-year-old daughter became inattended with a colony of Mexicans in Oakmont, after which he was unable to keep either of them at home. His wife came home drunk almost every night he said. His daughter, who was in the house, couldn't help himself, he said. He went to the house where they were in company with several Mexicans, and shot his wife fatally. TOM WATSON, GEORGIA FIREBRAND, PASSES OUT WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 30.—Death has finally stilled the vituprotative tongue of Senator Thomas E. Watson of Georgia, who died at his home here suddenly Tuesday. Death was said to be due to an attack of asthma. Senator Watson appeared to be at all times extremely hostile to Catholics and Black People, and never lost an opportunity to hurl maledictions against either. He had the reputation of being the most obscene and uncouth man ever elected to the Senate. In 1914 he was indicted for sending obscene matter through the mails. 'BIG SIX' GOES WEST TO GET SAM ELLIOT Ace of Detectives Sent On Trail of Man Killing Gambler Detective Sergeant David H. Smith, better known in police circles by the sobriquet of "Big Six," left for Seattle, Washington early this week to bring Sam Elliot, 3rd Ward "Bad Man," back to Chicago. Elliot is wanted here for killing "Sug" Clem, a gunman, while fleeing from a gambling house operated by Elliot above the Lorraine Gardens at Root and State Sts. Immediately after shooting Clem, Elliot is said to have gone to the 48th St. police station and made the statement that he had shot a man. The desk sergeant was well acquainted with Elliot, and not knowing that a murder had been committed, instructed him to appear next morning. Flees The City When it was learned that the gambler had died, Elliot failed to make an appearance. He was thought to be in hiding until the case could be "fixed" with the police. His continued disappearance caused a nation-wide search to be made. He is said to have been arrested in Seattle upon suspicion when his appearance tailed with descriptions sent broadcast. Speculation is rife among police circles as to who is pushing the prosecution against Elliot. The slain man has no relatives, and it is unusual that the state undertakes the expense incident to bringing back the slayer of a comparatively insignificant figure unless funds are advanced from some source, police say. "Big Six", who has been despatched to return with the murderer, is famous for his ability to handle and subdue "bad men." RIVALS MEET, REVIVE TWO YEAR OLD FEUD BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 30.—Frank Palm and George Smoot, rivals two years ago for the love of Miss Lillian Burton, on a busy street here last week, and the old feud was immediately rekindled. Smoot drew a revolver and fired three shots, one of them piercing his erstwhile rival's heart. The slayer is being held for murder. PYTHIANS SUSPEND JURISDICTION OF MO.

Green, Supreme chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, the entire Grand Lodge of the state of Missouri has been suspended from the order, and all lodges, courts and departments are warned to refrain from any fraternal relations with the Grand Lodge or any subordinate body under its jurisdiction. Chancellor Green's action came after the Missouri jurisdiction refused to pay over $4,000 membership dues to the Supreme Lodge. 82. But Wants To Marry 5th Time ANNAPOLIS, Md., Sept. 30.

White Women Urban League Scrap Over Prepares For 'Brownskin' Conference ST. LOUISE, Mo., Sept. 30—Emily Piper, 28 years old, a white woman who gave her address as 2321 Chouteau Ave., was found lying on the sidewalk in front of 2203 Olive St., at 10:50 o'clock Monday night, suffering from a deep knee wound, in the right side of the neck and a laceration of the scalp. Police of the Laclede Avenue District took her to the City Hospital where her condition was reported to be serious. The woman refused to make a statement to police telling her her assailant was or explaining how the wounds were received. She was held a prisoner at the hospital on a charge of "suspected affray" pending further investigation. Sometimes Tuesday, Audrey Wells, alias "Brown Skin," another white woman, was arrested and charged with the cutting. According to "Brown Skin," the Piper woman had become unduly familiar with her (real brown skin) husband, Andrew Wells. Wells is said to be lawfully married to the woman who is charged with the crime. They reside at 2203 Olive St. LOOKS FOR BREAKFAST FINDS WIFE A SUICIDE BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 30—When Allen C. Brown arose for his breakfast Tuesday morning and went toward the dining room, he was greeted by the ghastly sight of his wife's body hanging by a rope from the upper frame of the door between the dining room and kitchen. It is thought that Mrs. Allen committed suicide in a fit of temporary insanity.

Clarke of Ohio State University and many other prominent white and colored educators and students of race problems. MITCHELL MUST QUIT TO LET BANK OPEN MITCHELL MUST QUIT TO LET BANK OPEN RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 30.—John Mitchell, president of the defunct Mechanics Savings Bank, must resign with his entire staff if the depositors of the institution wish to save anything from the wreck and re-open the doors, is the substance of an ultimatum issued by wealthy bankers to whom Mr. Mitchell went for aid. Following charges of misuse of the bank's funds, Mr. Mitchell was placed in jail and the bank's closed. --- EIGHT PAGES GUN SHOOTS WOMAN AS HUSBAND LOOKS ON Angelus Building Again the Scene of Bullets and Love Tangle Mrs. Maggie Russell, 27, 3501 Washab Avo, the Angelus Building, is lying at death's door in the Provident Hospital. She was shot twice in the left breast just beneath the heart by Eiluh Seats in one of the most amazing and intricate love tangles recorded in police annals. Seats lives in apartment 704 of the Angelus Building. Chided By Husband The trouble is said to have started when Jerry Russell, husband of the wounded woman began to demonstrate with her for her relations with Evelyn Bates, a woman living at 3134 Prairie Ave. It is said that the Bates woman wielded some unusual influence over Mrs. Russell, and had alienated her affections from her husband. In retaliation, according to the police, Mrs. Russell had her husband for his friendship with Elijah Seats. She also accused him of spending many hours and much money in Seats' flat. Seats is said to have sold whiskey to Russell and made arrangements for him to meet women there. Goes to Seats' Flat To substantiate her charges she went to Seats' flat and repeated her accusations. Is it claimed, however, that Seats and Mrs. Russell had also a love affair, and he too, was indignant on account of her relations with Evelyn Bates. In the meantime the Bates man appeared on the scene. Trouble immediately started between her and Jerry Russell. The scene now shifts back to the Russell flat. The trouble between Russell and his wife and Evelyn Bates had apparently been ironed out, when a 'stock was heard at the door. Mrs. Russell answered it. There stood Elijah Seats, gun in hand. The argument between him and Mrs. Russell began again. Fires Twice With a few curse words he placed the gun at her breast and pulled the trigger twice. Mrs. Russell fell with two bullets near her heart. She was first reported dead, if not fatally wounded. Physicians at the Provident Hospital say she will probably recover. After the shooting Seats told the police that he believed Mr. and Mrs. Russell and Evelyn Eyates were planning to kill him, and had lured him to the Russell apartment for that purpose. Mrs. Russell was employed as a waitress at Arrington's restaurant, 35th and State Sts. After several years of varying degrees of marital infidelity. Mrs. Wilm Bottoms was divorced from her husband, William Bottoms of the Dreamland Cafe, Saturday.

The trial of Junie Raymond, which was set for Monday, will not be held. The Raymond woman was charged with stealing a girl, tried on the charge but for the fact that Thursday she was declared insane by a lunacy court. FIRST BRONZE AIR QUEEN TO FLY HERE TO SOAR OVER CHICAGO IN AEROPLANE The world's first dark-skinned aviatrix, Miss Bessie Coleman, a Chicago girl, is back in the Windy City to fly for the "home folks." Miss Coleman, who studied aviation in Europe, bears the distinction of being one of the only women either white or black, to receive a pilot's license from the French Aero Club.

TRIES TO FRAME PHYSICIAN BY CLEVER RUSE MEMPHIS, Tenn., Sept. 30—For cunning and ingenuity the script devised by Charles Clayton, 30, to get a witness against him out of the way deserves the palm, according to the police. And that scheme devised by Clayton, almost worked. Clayton was under indictment in Marion, Ark., on a charge of stealing 10 bushels of corn. His trial was held Saturday. The important witness for the state in its case against Clayton was a physician, Dr. C. E. W. Williams, who resided in Orange Mound. Should Dr. Williams fail to appear against Clayton there would be no case against him, and as a matter of course, he would be released. Clayton came to the police Friday night and told them he knew there were some whisky in automobile. The officers followed and found the whisky. It was in Williams' machine. Now one of the policemen happened to know the physician, and knew that his reputation was good. Williams told them of the case in Marion, Ark. Clayton was questioned by the officers, and finally he admitted, according to their statement "that he "planted" the whiskey, hoping that Williams would stay locked up over yesterday and thus fail to be at the trial. Put System In College Athletics WASHINGTON, Sept. 30—The Howard University at Washington, D.C., and Lincoln University, Lincoln University, Pa., have revised their business arrangements for athletic events, placing them on the same basis as the larger universities of the country; that is, the Department of Physical Education of each school shares in the net proceeds from the games played between them each year. The old basis whereby the visiting team secured only its expenses has been revised so that hereafter the entertaining school shall receive 60 per cent and the visiting school 40 per cent. This new understanding and arrangement goes into effect this year. A Program of Advisory Relationship At the last meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Howard University, a program of advisory relationship was worked out. The Advisory Council which was provided for in the adopted recommendations will be composed of the faculty of the Department of Physical Education, five students, and three members of the Alumni Association. Major M. T. Dean, head of the Department of Physical Education, will be shortly calling into conference the Advisory Council. The Alumni representatives are: D. Harold C. Stratton, Washington D. C. Q. D. Washington, Newark, N. J., and M. James M. Carter, Washington D. C. H. C. Football Prospects Bright Already at Howard things are beginning to take definite shane with respect to the coming football program. Coach Morrison began practice in earnest on Sept. 15 with a fine bunch of "huskies." Quite a large number of the "old warriors" have not returned as yet but during the coming week practically all will have reported. With the old boys back in togs and the splendid recruits from the freshman squad of last year, the prospects for a winning team for Howard's 1922 season seem bright.

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.

COMMISSION MAKES PUBLIC RIOT FINDINGS After three years' study on race relations in Chicago, the commission on race relations appointed by Governor Lowden following the race riots of 1919, made public its report this week. The commission made fifty-nine recommendations as to means for preventing future clashes between the races. Some of the most important are as follows: "We recommend that the most stringent means possible be applied to control the importation, sale and possession of firearms and other deadly weapons. "We recommend that the authorities exercise their powers to condemn and raze all houses unit for human habitation, enforce health and sanitary laws and regulations in the care and upkeep of streets and alleys and the connection of negro residence, where the commission has found these matters to be shamefully neglected. "We recommend that, in the areas where the main part of the negro population lives, school buildings, equipment and teaching forces be provided which shall be at least equal to the average standard for the city, that night schools and community centers be established in sections not now adequately provided with such facilities, and that truant officers give attention to school attendance by the children of negro families migrating from the South. "There must be more and better housing to accommodate the great increase in negro population, which was at the rate of 148 per cent from 1910 to 1920. This situation will be made worse by methods tending toward forcible segregation or exclusion of negroes." For Checks on Athletic Clubs The report also recommended that bombings of homes in mixed districts be suppressed by "prompt and vigorous action" by the police. It also advised that each "athletic club" be forced to file with the city clerk statements of their purposes at stated intervals. Discourage Race Agitators "We recommend to negroes the pro-mulgation of sound racial doctrines among the uneducated members of their group and the discouragement of propaganda and agitators seeking to inflame racial animosity and incite negroes to violence. "We particularly urge that negroes vigorously and continuously protest against the racism in their residence of any vicious resort, and that they join in and support all efforts to suppress such places. Courts Unfair "Negroes are more commonly arrested, subject to police identification, and convicted than white offenders. On similar evidence they generally are held and convicted on more serious charges and given longer sentences. We point out that these practices and practices of the Negroes but weaken the machinery of justice and produce misleading statistics of negro crime. ACQUITTED OF MURDER CHARGE EVANSVILLE, Ind., Sept. 30.—Carlo Britton has been acquitted of the charge of murder of Doris Johnson, proprietor of a soft dring establishment. Britton was charged with entering the place in an intoxicated condition and shooting Johnson with a shotgun. SEEING--AHEAD It's being able to see ahead that wins success, no matter what you're doing.

THE CHICAGO WHIP MOROCCANS FIGHT MACHINE GUNS WITH ROCKS MOROCCANS FIGHT MACHINE GUNS WITH ROCKS (Crusader Service) PARIS, Sept. 30.—While threatening war clouds are gathering heavily in the Near Eastern sky, where the armies of British Imperialism are attempting to block the patriot Turkish Nationalist army, lead by Mustapha Kemal, fresh from his victories over the Greeks, news comes from Northern Africa of a war of another kind, in which Morocco mountain tribes are valiantly fighting with knives and chunks of rock torn from their rugged hillsides against troops armed with machine guns, air bombs and all the latest machinery of modern warfare with which the French invading army is armed in its efforts to deprive the Moroccanans of their liberty. In the wild, mountainous country, heavily veiled by thick mists which hamper observation and remuner aerial attack almost impossible, the French have been worsened in many neree hand to hand battles with the warlike French army. Only in French control possible at the present time, when all the country is stirred by the news of the brilliant victories of Mustapha Kemal over the troops of Greece. The situation in Morocco is typical of the situation in many other French African colonies, and particularly in the British colonies. The British and French foreign offices are deeply concerned over the militant evidences in the vicinity of the Islamic World in whose ranks are included the greatest and bravest of the tribes of Africa and Asia. Monument to Living, Aim of Legion Millions of dollars have been spent by various communities for the creation of monuments, marble shafts, obelisks and Arcs de Triomphe and the like—in token of gratitude for the ex-service men and women of the World War. Chicago, however, proposes to take the lead of the big cities, in providing a monument for the 175,000 ex-service men and women of Cook County, in a manner that will not only provide a suitable memorial to the sacrifice of the dead, but a monument of service to the living as well. With this in view, the campaign to raise $750,000 has already been started, and within a few days it is expected that the drive will be in full operation with an exceptionally well organized group of monuments Chicago citizens using the Cook County American Legion Association to the limit. Food, jobs, shelter and relief is the purpose of this memorial of service—not a chill marble shaft that feeds no hungry men. It is hoped to build or buy a centrally located home, commensible enough to take care of the meetings of the 150 Legion Posts in the county, as well as the County Legion Association; the headquarters for the Chicago division of the State Department of lathery, given at least 50 rooms, where ex-service men of limited funds can be accommodated or cared for gratis if necessary.

HEFLIN DOESN'T WANT TO HEAR US PRAISED The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through its secretary, James Weldon Johnson, calls attention to an incident in the Senate, an account of which was published in the Congressional Record of September 13, which shows the hostility of Southern Senators to the Dyer Mt. Calvary Lynchman and William Mt. Calvary of New York on thevious Sunday delivery an address in the Nazarene Congregational Church of Brooklyn in which he discussed the development of the race during the past sixty years and urged the passage of the Dyer Bill. When Senator Shortridge of California joined with Senator Calder in asking that the address be printed in the Congressional Record, Senator Heather of Alabama objected. The Congressional Record as follows: Mr. Shortridge: Mr. President, my attention has been called to an address delivered by the junior Senator from New York (Mr. Calder) at the Nazarene Congregational Church, in Brooklyn, N. Y., on Sunday evening, September 10. In this address the Senator from New York discusses the development of the Negro race during the past 60 years, and urges the enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. It was my privilege to report that bill out of the Judiciary Committee, of which I am a member, and I join with the Senator from New York in expressing the hope that that measure will be passed before Congress adjourns this session. The address is thoughtful and contains some very interesting facts bearing upon the progress of the Negro race in our country. I ask unanimous consent that the address may be printed in the Record in 8-paper form. Mr. Heffin: Mr. President, for the time being I object, until I can examine the address. The Presiding Officer: The Senator from Alabama objects. Mr. Shortridge: I shall be very glad to hand a copy of the address to the Senator from Alabama and if he will do it, it will be his privileger to do so. Cut Man For Refusing To To Buy Drink Two strangers attacked John Everett, 45, 5. E. Division St., Thursday afternoon at 30th and Federal St., and cut him painfully about the face and head.

CHICAGO BODDY MURDERED IN NAME OF LAW', HE SAYS "Murder in the Name of the Law" is the title of one of the most drastic documents against capital punishment that ever appeared in print—and it is published in this week's issue of "Midnight," a weekly magazine. It is also personally witnessed and tells of his sensation at the execution of Luther Boddy, who was recently electrocuted in Sing Sing for the murder of two policemen. The writer does not attempt to justify crime, nor does he question the legality of an execution. But the picture he paints—the horror of the terrible soul killed in the gunshot—is done in the name of the law is one that can never be forgotten.

Old Game of Plunder According to the A. B. B., the British are playing in the Near East their old game of plundering the coloured races the while posing as the experiments and exemplars of Christianity and civilization. Having seen collapse their plot of using the Greek army to carry out their evil designs against the Turkish people and their territories the British are now attempting to do for themselves what their Greek tools were not able to do for them. They seek to make Constantinople a second Gibraltar, order that they may be able in time of war to shut off the peoples of Southern Europe from the sea. The statement further declares that the British at the Dardanelles solely to defend the vicious principle of "European eminent domain" (European control of other peoples) and British thrist for ulceration against the virile which are being launched against it, Jastapha Kemal, leader of the Turkish Nationalists, and which the A. B. B. compares a part of the rapidly "rising title" to which imperialists and the capitalists participate throughout the world, and cites as proof of its accusation the following statement appearing in a press dispatch from London: "Regarding India, it is contended that if the British Government yields to Turks the Indian Mussulmans will be more unruly, whereas in Kemal Pakistan and prevented from crossing the Straits British presence will be high." Sets "Bad Example" In other words, the Turkish Nationalists are to be thwarted in their legitimate aspirations to regain Constantinople and Turkish Thrace because if those legitimate aspirations are achieved, the peoples of India, Egypt and Africa, who also have legitimate aspirations for the liberation of their homelands from the British bondage and despotism, will be stirred to give their effect to their demands. The A. B. E. B. is not improbable that the world may soon see an alliance between Turkey, China, Japan and India for the purpose of wresting from the white plunderers their thefts of colored men's lands in Asia and Africa and calls attention to rumors appearing in the white press to that effect, expressing the hope that the Negro peoples will wake up to the true situation of the stirring challenge to white supremacy created by the rapidly moving events in the Near East and in Northern Africa where a slave trade was established, the brave Moroccan tribes have been taken the warmth of the French Declaring, that the color line and trace prejudice are unknown in Moslemized lands, where Moslems of all shades and colors mix together without comment or thought of prejudice in political, social and religious affairs, and that the Turkish Nationalists today represent the entire colored world in the struggle against white imperialism, exploitation and impudence in the homelands of the colony, the Abyssinia, the Bantu lands, that the NEGROe of America is supportive of their religious beliefs, must be in favor of Turkish success as against the plunder-bund of the "Christian" nations.

Miller Says Johnson Is Imbecile WASHINGTON, Sept. 30—Prof. Kelly Miller has taken vigorous issue with Fenton Johnson, a Chicago poet, who attracted the professor's attention by a poem he wri to contain this line: "It is better to die than to grow quiet and quiet you are colored." In a baffling article for publication, Prof. Miller played Johnson in the following terms: "Unfortunately Fenton Johnson does not stand alone. His brand of moral imbecility is widespread and contagious. The race abounds with weak-skinned pessimists without faith, hope or courage. They are ashamed of their kind and of their own progeny. They live without hope and the without issue. They are even devoid of conscience which makes them think rather of the ills they have than face personal or social suicide.

Foster.* COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 30 —The citizens of Columbus, headed by the Citizens Committee, of which George Weaver is chairman and G. A. Stewart is secretary, is making a determined night against the establishment of a Junior High School for colored children. At a big mass meeting yesterday held at the St. Paul A. M. E. Church under the anpies of said committee, Attorney Ray Hughes delivered a stirring address in which he not only explained the present situation but traced the events which led up to present conditions. Segregation Bobs Up Prior to 1909, colored teachers were employed in many of the district schools, where they taught both white and colored pupils. Columbus at that time had honest-to-goodness mixed schools, i.e., mixed teachers as well as mixed pupils and it is said that perfect harmony existed. There were no complaints from either white or colored citizens. In 1909, however, agitation for a separate school was begun and although a bitter fight was waged against such by prominent citizens, the Champion Avenue School was established for colored pupils. The colored teachers were then removed from the other schools and all were assigned places in the Champion Avenue School, which thereby became a separate school. In order to accomplish the perfect segregation of the children of the district affected, it was necessary to redistrict the entire section and this was done so perfectly Join The Supreme Royal Circle of Friends of the World (Incorporated) BENEFITS 1 Sick and Accident Benefits—$7.00 to $10.00 per week. 2 Burial and Death Benefits—$300.00 Monument—$60.00. 4 Free treatment in Hospitals at Mem- phis, Little Rock and Hot Springs.

M. C. A. at the house in the woods last Sunday proved successful in every way. Over thirty men left the Wabash Avenue building Sunday morning at half-past nine o'clock and by car and bus journeyed to the Northwestern "U" Settlement House on the Despainnes River. In the forenoon, after devotionals led by Prof. Huggins and Rev. S. H. Henry, Geo. R. Arthur introduced the purpose of the conference as an occasion for withdrawing from distractions of the city to think carefully and at length upon the problems of the program that the Y. M. C. A. will promote during the conference. The crowd then broke up into smaller groups severally considered the problems that were especially interesting in each of the departments of the association. At one o'clock after much fruitful and enlightening discussion the committee gathered around tables for a delicious dinner. W. C. Casey presided at one table while E. F. Smith did the honors at another. Messrs. Benj. Grant, J. D. Fowler, and Foster Branch spent a busy hour catching snaps of individuals and groups. Then the crowd settled down to enjoy devotional led by the Rev. M. O. E. Jones, and W. E. Green, Mr. L. W. Tucker introduced the speakers of the afternoon. Messrs. Wm. Frans, chairman of the Committee of Management, and Parker of the general office President introduced M. C. A. College. These gentlemen brought to the groun the thrill of contact with a live organization in the Y. M. C. A. from a local, national and world viewpoint. The crowd returned to the city with a new interest in the work of the association and with especially high hopes for the future of the Wabash Avenue Department. that despite the fact that the district line was a zigzag, there was only one white child left to attend the Champion Avenue School, white all colored pupils were found to be in the district. It is needless to state that the one white child was immediately transferred to another school. Fear Another About a year ago, the Pilgrim School was erected at a cost of $100,000 for a Junior High School. The Champion Avenue School and the new Pilgrim School are in the same district. Despite this fact, the School Board has established Junior High School work in the Champion Avenue School and has transferred a large number ofcolored students to it. The School Board also recently purchased adjacent property upon which is located the old Union Grove Baptist Church and it is feared by colored citizens that it is the purpose of the Board to erect a Senior High School within the near future. At the present time, this church is being used for school purposes. Repeated efforts have been made by members of the committee to meet the School Board to present certain petitions drawn up by the Parents-Teachers Committee and the Board has deliberately exed meeting this group. At the time regularly set aside for the Board meeting, the committee presented itself only to be told that the Board had held a special meeting during the afternoon at which time the entire Gene School matter had been settled."

On September 14 and 15, 1922, the National Negro Insurance Association convened in the Y. M. C. A. building in the city of Atlanta. In point of numbers some would say that the assembly was not larger; there were eighty-four ladies and gentlemen representing thirteen companies. They had never assembled a more intelligent, earnest and businesslike meeting than this one. Various phases of the Insurance Business among our people were exhaustively discussed, and many progressive plans for the improvement of the business were adopted. Funds were pledged for the purpose of endowing chairs for the teaching of courses in Insurance one to be in the business of the C.

The settlement of the rail and coal situation, which of course were the chief causes of the temporary shut down of the country's largest plants, has caused more optimism to be placed on Ford-opens Mammoth Plants. For instance the "Ford Motor Co." which closed its doors some time ago, again threw open the doors to their various plants, and once more the wheels of industry of this gigantic plant have again started to revolve. A large percentage of the labor in the various Ford plants are black men. Cotton and Its Products Advance The cotton market appears to be strengthening considerably and of course is causing heavy buying by brokers. At high price that is now being paid for cotton and cotton seed is highly encouraging to merchants and laborers alike. The money from cotton and cotton seed goes mainly to colored people on plantations and it simply means that they will have more money to spend. It will mean more sales for the retailer and collections will be better all over than they have been for some time. Last but not least, the banks will gradually begin to make loans that their heisters turn down. Unemployment is particularly non-existent. All business in this country during this season will show considerable expansion over the same period in 1921. A new enterprise has recently been formed which will make it possible for any family to possess their choice from among the best known washing machines, guaranteed for the usual term of one year, at a saving of from thirty to sixty per cent of the standard purchase price. This will come as good news to many who have been awaiting the time when the cost of high-grade washing machines shall come within easy reach. The International Washing Machine Company, located at 426-428 South Wahash Avenue, Chicago, operate a large plant where re-built and re-finished washing machines of well-known manufacture are put into first-class condition and uniformly finished in a most elegant King's Bike of the building, all worn parts are replaced with new, every inch of the mechanism is refinished and the whole machine is thoroughly tested by expert mechanics. --- CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 30—Edward H.

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, detaches the will and reason, brings on physical illness, nervous diseases, stomach trouble, head ache, and moral degeneration. Nature is a strict master — she never gives up or more than she intends to direct, but out over balanced account, by extracting more from some other, than it is willing to draw 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.

With no law to stop you, what would you do tonight? The city before you—women—cafes—banks—riches in homes and shops—take what you want. Would you be at home or with your sweetheart? How about those secret wishes—those half-thoughts that quiver and jump within you? Take all! Take all! There was such a day in a great city—the smartest city—and the wickedest. No law—and everyone doing what he or she wanted to! They danced—and such dancing! They drank—and such drinking! There was passion—but there was also faith! Bad women, and beautiful—but there were good women, even more beautiful. Oh, that mad day! Into it, from the country; came pretty Henriette Girard, her little love-heart brimming with sweetness—for her blind orphan sister—for all the world. One man stole her—and kissed her—and fell—amid wine and revelry and dancing. Another kissed her—and handsomest man of millions—and was driven from the city. The third man kissed her—Danton, a nation's hero—and they threatened his life! Love! Laughter! Madness without limit! Would you have withstood it? By all means see this most daring and startling production, for thrill follows thrill so fast that you can only in your seat and gasp and never IQKER! FRANKFORT. KY. Mr. W.

Along with this joint involvement there is an associated inflammation of the kidneys.

A combination of poor food, defective hygiene, overcrowding, and the great consumption of excessively highly malted lions are factors in producing gout. Persons of large frame and good physique with a tendency to become fat are usually the ones that become a victim to attacks of gout. Also the majority of people who over-eat and partake of too much alcohol are apt to become victims of this disease. It is also known that highly seasoned foods, an excess of pickles, vinegar and highly salted foods bring on attacks of gout. Excessive mental work over exercise and strain may produce an attack of gout yet a certain amount of out-door exercise in summer and indoor in winter is beneficial in preventing attacks. The Diet The diet forms one of the important factors in the prevention of gout. Those who have a tendency toward gouty conditions should partake of such foods as eggs and milk in any form, providing both are fresh. Cheese is very desirable and may be combined into attractive dishes with milk and eggs. Any starchy foods may be used freely. Bread, rice, potatoes and any green vegetables should form the major portion of the dietary. The fruits that are particularly nourishing are oranges, pineapple and grapefruit.

LASH OF THE IIIP UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP A column of constructive criticism of men and measures in the hope of correcting errors and evils. We have only one fault to find with the Baptists since the days of good old John the Baptist, who came preaching in the wilderness of Judea many thousand years ago saying, "Repent ye, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand," and that is they hold too many conventions, and verily they say unto you that each and every one of these conventions is the National Baptist convention. At least half a dozen National Baptist conventions have been held in the last three months. The real situation is that all is not well in Judea. Baptist leaders are seeking worldly glory and several ambitious divines are at each other's throats; thus so many conventions and so much money raised by the good old brothers and sisters. Let the Baptists get together under one leaderlike John the Baptist and lead us out of the wilderness. Silence prevails in the ranks of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The Dyer bill has not yet passed. The N. A. A. C. P. has done wonderful work in fighting the lynching evil, and no doubt they would like to receive the credit for getting the bill passed. They deserve it and in event of its passage will undoubtedly receive due credit, but why should they constantly inform the press that this bill is sure to pass, and etc., when the same is not true? We want the bill passed and have aided the N. A. A. C. P. in every way, but we have always had our doubts and misgivings, and we would hate to think that the N. A. A. C. P. is fooling the people about it. Why are they so confident? Or are they merely seeking credit? Some of our leaders are getting tired of calling us such foolish names as "race men," "members of our group," etc., have marked us with another term—the brethren. The clown of Chicago's city council, one Louis B. Anderson, member of the black race and noted for his funny jokes started to call us "the brethren," and recently some learned speakers have been heard using the same term. They just hate to say "black men." They don't like the word "black," and none do who haven't race pride. Away with this brethren business. 8 VOL. IV.

WE HAVE DENICATED OURSELves TO PUBLIC SERVICE. WATSON'S SOUL Tom Watson, Senator from Georgia, kindred spirit of Tillman, Vardaman and Blease, has been stricken by the hand of the grim reaper. Watson is dead. We remember him and the wounds inflicted by his cruel and gnarled hands are still afresh and gaping. Watson hated black people. He spit his venom upon us at every opportunity, he called us black, burly brutes. Our women were known to him as wenches and witches. Tom Watson, the Charlie Chaplin of the Senate, descended from the convicts brought over in Oglethorpe's ill-fated ship, has fallen. Oh, mighty Tom Watson, hast thou fallen so low? No more will the strident voice of this misanthrope be heard railing and reviling the black people; no more will he abuse and defame us. Tom Watson has gone the way of Ben Tillman. He is dead, and may God have mercy on his soul, but where is the soul of Tom Watson? He did not love his brother, he upheld murder and the destruction of human life. He gloated in the agony and misery of the weak and wretched. Where is the soul of Tom Watson? We remember how he humbled our pride and trampled over us in his pomp and evanescent glory. Tom Watson, with his soul laid bare, now faces the God of creation, who says that I am a just and righteous God. Where, then, is the soul of Tom Watson? VIVE LA FRANCE VIVE LA FRANCE Good old France, glorious France, the land where every man gets a square deal and the color of the skin does not cause hatred, contempt and enmity to rankle in the hearts of humankind, France gave the world a lesson in chivalry, courtesy and gentility when she lifted the crown of Georges Carpentier, her war hero and fighting idol, from his pallid brow and placed it with tender hands upon "the knotted and combined locks" of "Battling Siki," black man and conqueror of her erstwhile idol. Carpentier, pride of France, one of the aces of her air forces, pampered and petted favorite of society, movie hero, lies crumpled in defeat. A black man, a denizen of the underworld of Paris, born and bred in a French tributary, has succeeded to the pugilistic glory of Carpentier and France hushes as he falls, then shakes the world with her spontaneous cry of ecstasy, "Carpentier has fallen; long live Siki, our new champion." In America in nineteen ten, when James J. Jeffries, the pride of the U. S. A., was felled by the powerful blows of the black Jack Johnson, and rolled in a crumpled heap at the feet of the new champion, the white people of America became embittered and sporadic outbursts of race irre were evident all over "the land of the free and the home of the brave." America was loath to receive the black man as her champion and here and there he received the hoots and jeers of the inflamed populace. America found it hard to relish the idea of a black man's superiority in the manly art of self defense, and who cried long live Johnson? We all heard the wail of white America, we heard her moans and groans of discontent. We heard her whine for hope, white hopes to bring back the pugilistic glory to the white race. Never for once did she take pride in the fact that one of her native sons, a black man, had succeeded to the highest honors in the pugilistic world. She forgot that Jack Johnson, though black, was an American son, and "to the manor born." France cannot see the color of Siki's skin, nor the texture of his hair, the lines and angles of his face nor the arch of his foot. Siki is a Frenchman and France loves her Frenchmen. The world saw her take this swarthy gladiator upon her shoulders and lavish her affections upon him. That is the way of France. Vive La France. Well do we say that every black man has two countries—his own and France. Vive La France. THE WRONG MAN Major Munro Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, is going to Scotland to represent the black people of America before the Scottish people and the European universities. It appears that Major Moton has conceived the idea that he is the sponsor and spokesman of his race. Where he got this idea we are at a loss to know. Mr. Moton was literally bequeathed the mantle of Booker T. Washington, at Tuskegee, but what has this gentleman achieved or accomplished to gain so much prominence and self-conceit? He studied at Hampton Normal and Industrial Institute, and was an instructor there for many years. He has written nothing worth while, said nothing worth while, and done nothing worth while, but like Topsy, he just "grew up." Now he is going to Europe and pose as the leader of us black Americans. We want men to be seen and heard as types of black men; real men who stand four square to every wind that blows, who understand political and economic theories of the day, who are prepared to consider advanced thought and conceive of a racial renaissance. Moton is the wrong man. His horizon is exactly the sky line of the buildings at Normal and Industrial institutions like Tuskegee and Hampton, but he cannot peer very far beyond, where higher education and higher learning abide. Moton is the wrong man. God give us men of vision and men of might.

Press, the sermon on the great subject, "Man," by Dr. John Dill Robertson will live in the minds of all who heard. Mad- tionally known fighter of vice and vice conditions, addressed the very large and appreciative audience on DIDDIGHT AWAYS THROUGH THE NIGHT LIFE of the CITY OF CHICAGO." The speaker recited graphically his own experiences in fighting vice on the South Side and laid the blame for such conditions on the corrupt conditions of politics in the City of Chicago. He was eloquent in his praise of the courageous stand of The Chicago Whip in its efforts to eradicate some of the hell holes of the South Side. He also showed that two of the most potent apprehensions of destroying the morals of a race were the moving picture shows and the cabarets. Quinn Chapel Church Dr. H. E. Stewart has been returned to Quinn Chapel as pastor. He is now serving his fifth administration as pastor. The church gave him a rousing welcome. The Chicago Annual Conference has endorsed Dr. Stewart as a candidate for the bishopric, in 1924. We need leaders like Dr. Stewart. He is a man of profoundity and recondite ability, with high scholastic attainments; and intellectual foresight and reason. 10:45 a. m. The pastor preached a powerful sermon to approximately 1,300 people. The shouts of the Saints were heard praising God from whom all blessings flow. Mine.

Liberty Life Increases Capital Stock THE success of Liberty Life is an established fact. Ever since its beginning and incorporation June 30, 1919, the company has steadily—yet, quite rapidly—grown into the success which it now enjoys. Not so long ago, however, the entire plan was a simple inspired vision without tangible construction, but those days are no more. Liberty Life has been efficiently organized; written a large volume of paid-for business; made friends and established good will throughout the United States. Respect and support has been gained especially in the two states in which the company operates; Illinois and Michigan. In the North, Liberty Life dominates the field of big business and of life insurance among Negroes. Why Capital is Increased This steady growth has caused an urgent need for still more expansion. Consequently with the completion of the sale of the first issue of stock, rays gleamed in showing opportunities that could be grasped if the capital was increased from $100,000 to $200,000. To be specific, an increased capital of $200,000 will enable Liberty Life to enter more States, secure more policy-holders and make more money for its stockholders. or 1st, this stock will be offered opportunity to invest in a go days of infancy and uncertainty company is growing nearer a Don't hesitate!

Snappy Thoughts "No corsets for women in 1923."— Style Journal. Therefore it is optional with the men to use their own judgment? LOOKEE? Just 200 more days before school will be out. Censored movies remind us of 5-cent cigare. They do not draw well.
