Name Emmett Scott, 4 Others, In Liberia Intrigue DUEL TO DEATH IN STREET CAR into court serve the matter PRICE 5 CENTS Leaps 4 Stories To Death From Hotel Window VOL. IV.—No. 48. DUEL Leaps 4 S MEN BATTLE UNTIL BOTH ARE DEAD Men Crazed With Drink Slash Each Other Into Ribbons A quarrel over trivial matters which began on a south bound State Street surface car after midnight Saturday culminated in a murderous duel when George Simpson, 38, of 3237 Calumet Ave., and George Ragsdale, of 3565 Rhodes Ave., were ejected from the car at 40th street by the conductor. Board Car Drunk According to the conductor of the car, the men boarded the car at 31st St., both in an ugly mood, and under the influence of whiskey. They began quarreling, their voices rising higher and higher as the car progressed south. The other passengers and the crew of the car became alarmed, fearing that the two men would begin shooting. When the car reached 40th St., the conductor signaled the motorman to stop. He then compelled the men to leave the car. Knife V4. Razor. Over in the street, Simpson and Ragsdale set upon each other with fury. Simpson drew a knife. Ragsdale wielded a razor. They shashed and cut each other until both fell bleeding and unconscious to the ground. Ragsdale was dead when the police arrived. Simpson regained consciousness and dragged himself a short distance away, but died in an ambulance enroute to a hospital. SEIGEL SAYS WE ARE TOO POOR TO EAT TURKEY SEIGEL SAYS WE ARE TOO POOR TO EAT TURKEY During an interview Saturday with Jake Seigel, operator of a chain of meat markets known as the "General Market House Stores," a representative of the Whip was told "that the colored people living near his stores were so poor that they didn't eat chicken or turkey or any other high class meat." For this alleged reason, Seigel stated that he was particularly anxious for their trade. Seigel's attitude is further indicated by the fact that he employs only white help in his stores. They are located at 3514 State St, 115 E. 31st St, and 213 E. 47th St. ```markdown ``` BUY THE WHIP IN THE LOOP It Is Fighting Vice The K. K. Klan Slave Tho'ts Graft UNDERWORLD COLOR LINE LAID BARE Virgil Williams Shows How Colored People Are 'Jim Crowed' Virgil Williams, candidate for Alderman of the Second Ward of Chicago, continues in unbroken trend upon his rampage on the raging vice conditions in this city. Williams now asserts that not only does vice reign but there is a color line which has been drawn so firmly that only white people, mostly Jews, are permitted to operate. Pressure has been brought to bear recently upon the telephone company to rampage on the raging vice conditions in this city. Williams now asserts that not only does vice reign but there is a color line which has been drawn so firmly that only white people, mostly Jews, are permitted to operate. Pressure has been brought back recently upon the phone company to have phones re- Virgin Williams have phones removed from houses of doubtful character operated by black people, while those under the advice and protection of the Jewish prostitution syndicate have as many phones as they want. Officers Kick Woman The wrecking crew or the raiding squads of south side policemen recently went into a "buffet flat" operated by a black woman and beat her unmercifully besides destroying some of her furniture. Louis B. Anderson seeks to claim that he is not responsible for this situation but Williams states that Anderson had no trouble in closing the Community Park at the corner of Wabash and Thirty-Second street last summer. Williams states that it is an insult to the Second Ward to allow these Jews to come into the district and operate and forbid the black people to have the same privilege. If there is going to be vice no color line must be drawn, but "Vice must go," says the candidate. Anderson is going to be held to strict accountability for the color line by the underworld and the present incumbent is "a prophet with honor in his own country," states Williams. EXTRA! Another chapter in the violent underworld upheaval of Chicago's Southside, where the colored people live, came to a tragic close on last Tuesday night when Thomas Jasper, the "Baby Doll", emitted his pistol in the body of John Williams. It is the same old story, a crap game, an argument, curse words, a drawing of guns, a blinding flash of light, the dull thud of a falling body, a dying man, a soul in hell. And the next day the gamblers go back to dice and the policemen plod their beats winking knowingly. Prominent Characters. Thomas Jasper, nee Baby Doll, was a game keeper for Steve Mackey's Gambling den at 3449 S. State St. but on Tuesday night he was trying his luck at the game operated by John Williams, now dead, at 4446 S. State St. Williams is well known in the city, he was formerly associated with Thomas Cole at the Cole and Catlin Hotel, he is survived by his wife and son. The shooting occurred in the early hours of the morning over the payment of a bet won by "Baby Doll". It is reported by bystanders that both men fired their guns. The "Doll" was wounded in the abdomen while Williams is dead. "Baby Doll" is now in the Bridewell hospital. Wife Wanted Night Life LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2.—Laurence A. Reckler has instituted suit for divorce against his wife here because she has refused to become domesticated. He declares his wife persists in keeping late hours and frequenting the cabarets. CHICAGO, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2nd, 1922. AFRICAN PRINCE DECKED IN GEMS SWIPES CLOTHES WASHINGTON, Pa., Dec. 2. Declaring that while she was away at work, he stole her dry-dry wash off the line, Mrs. Carrie Starkes, 126 E. Spruce St., has asked police authorities to he on the look-out for a man who calls himself Prince Bular Saitaw, from Zululand, Africa. According to Mrs. Starkes, who keeps a boarding-house, Prince Saitaw, wearing a soft black hat, gray overcoat, stiff shirt, diamond ring and diamond stickpin, came there a week ago and asked to be allowed to stay until he could earn a little money. That night he met the Prince disappeared last week while she was out, taking with him her watch, two suits of pajamas, one dozen handkerchiefs, one pair of scissors, one razor stone, and he even took the rough-dry clothes off the line. The Prince, she says, is an orator and when he lectures he wears a full dress-suit. When he is not lecturing, he wears a pair of blue trousers and a stirred coat. FATE TOSSES DEATH DICE FOR POTTER The dice of death were cast Friday for Robert Potter, who several weeks ago killed a man in a gambler's fight. He was totally by another gambler in the same resort. The shooting culminated a gambler's quarrel in a den operated by William Bass at 478 31st St., known as the Party Men's Club. Shot Four Times Potter was shot four times by Johnson Arline, another gambler. The bullets took effect in his abdomen, neck, left leg, and left hand. He died Sunday in the Bridewell hospital. The two men began quarrelling over a disputed point in a crap game. When Potter refused to accept Arline's version of the controversy, Arline drew a pistol to silence him. Potter then started to leave the place, declaring that he would inform the police that Arline had threatened him with a gun. "You'll never live to stool on me," Arline is said to have declared, and drew his gun and began shooting. Potter fell, mortally wounded. His slaves made good his escape. Following the fractas, the place was raided and twelve men were detained at the Cottage Grove station by the nefice. Potter Had Killed Man There Potter is the same man who stabbed to death Charles Pine, 28, 3840 Eden Ave., in a tight at this same resort shortly after midnight August 9. Following the stabbing he temporarily escaped, but was later captured. At a request he was freed on the ground that he stabbed Pine in self defense. DR. SILSBY, VETERAN EDUCATOR, DIES TALLADEGA, Ala., Nov. 28—Dr. Edwin C. Silsby, for years dean of Talladega College and one of the vanguard of those sterling men from the New England States who first went south in the early days, passed away at his home at Talladega College last Sunday morning, November 26, at 6:30. Identified with the beginnings of Talladega College, Dean Silsby has had pass under his tutelage over thousands of students who will mourn his passing, knowing that they have lost a friend who never failed them and who ever stood ready to counsel, guide and assist any student who called upon him. Funeral services were held in Do Forest Chapel, Tuesday afternoon at 2 p. m., at which city friends and all of the college paid tribute to one of the noblest characters ever identified with the education and the service of mankind. SAYS 5 WILL GET RICH OFF LIBERIA LOAN Claim Liberian Loan Will Fatten Lewis, Scott and Houston WASHINGTON, D. C. Dec. 2.—Charges were made in the senate Friday by Senator Harrison (Miss.), Democrat, that five colored men prominently identified with the Republican party would receive a commission of $65,000 from the Liberian government as soon as congress passes the administration bill for a $5,000,000 loan to Liberia. He named the five men as follows: William H. Lewis, Boston, assistant to attorney general in the Taft administration; Emmer J. Scott, secretary and treasurer of Howard university, Washington, prominently connected with Gen. Leonard Wood's primary campaign in 1920; James A. Cobb, Washington, former assistant district attorney; Rev. Ernest Lyman, Baltimore, former minister to Liberia, and William L. Houston, Washington, recently appointed to the Washington board of education by President Hard- Passage of Bill Endangered These charges, following upon Senator Borah's assertion that a large portion of the loan would go into the pockets of New York speculators who bought up Liberian obligation at 10 cents on the dollar, have placed the fate of the bill in jeopardy. An agreement was entered into today to vote on the measure Monday. Before the final roll call is taken, however, the senate will vote on a motion made by Senator Simmons (N. C.), Democrat, who will strike out all except the Borah amendment, already adopted, providing $20,000,000 for reclamation in the United States, and the Harrison amendment, adopted today, appropriating $170,000 for the employment of thirty-five additional inspectors to enforce the locomotive inspection law. Liberia's Part in War The senate was thrown into much merriment by a speech of Senator Norris (Neb.), Republican, in which he satirically extolled the part played by Liberia in the world war. Recalling that the loan was pledged by the Wilson administration to induce Liberia to come into the war, he said: "When Liberia declared war the kaiser turned from a dark brunette to a pale blonde. His hair stood on end and his mustache straightened out. Rich and poor alike rejoiced. The shepherd in the hills, with heart full of rejoicing, turned his face to the rising sun and cried aloud: "The world is made safe for democracy; Liberia has entered the war." 10 INJURED IN NAPHTHA EXPLOSION Ten persons, most of them young women, were injured Tuesday when a naphtha tank exploded in the Julius Birck cleaning and dyeing works at 4410 State St., and showered the work room with splintered glass. The blast wrecked the rear of the building and was heard for two miles. Tales of home bombing and viol nce flew thick and fast. Those most seriously hurt were treated at the Provident Hospital. They were, Frank Edgert, 3220 Lowe Ave.; Ethel King, 16 W. 43rd St; John Murphy, 5721 Aberdeen Ave., and William Perry, 4525 Evans Ave. For Better Trained Teachers RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 2-"A nine-month school term for every child and at least a normal graduate as teacher in every Virginia school," was the educational objective of the recent, three-day, tenth annual session of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia, whose officers include Robert R. Moton, honorary president; Allen Washington, president; and John M. Gandy, executive secretary. PREFERS DEATH TO DUNNING;HE LEAPS 4 FLOORS Jiles Ware Ends His Life In Fatal Leap From Hotel Window Despondent and brooding over the fact that he was to be returned to the lunatic asylum at Dunning, Jiles Ware, 42, leaped to his death from the window of his room on the fourth floor of the Idlewild Hotel late Wednesday night. Ware, who was mentally incompetent, was sent to Dunning several months ago. He was later released on a parole. The parole was to have expired December 3. At the time Ware took his death plunge his wife, Mrs. Mamie Ware was in the room with him. According to her story, Ware began to grow despondent as he realized that his days of freedom were about to come to an end. She says she had no reason to believe, however, that her husband would commit suicide. She was about to retire for the night, when without a word, Ware walked to the window, threw it open, and balancing himself upon the ledge, plunged downward into the darkness to his death. Ware was already dead when hotel attendants rushed to his side. His body was removed to Edwards' Morgue, 31st St. and Indiana Ave., for burial. Two Others Attempt Suicide Two other persons, one a man and the other a woman, unsuccessfully attempted suicide during the week. They were Cecil Hayes, 21, a waiter, of 3853 Langley Ave., and Mimie Rein, of 643, 33rd St. Despondent over all lighthouses, Hayes drank a dose of lysol Thursday. Mrs. Rein attempted to end her life late Sunday night by opening a gas jet in her room. She was discovered shortly after midnight and revived by the police with a pulmotor. STATE ST. LIGHTING NEARS COMPLETION The work of lighting State Street between 30th and 36th Streets is rapidly approaching completion as seen by the beautiful concrete posts fifty feet apart which have recently made their appearance. On account of the difficulty in securing lead cables, it is difficult to predict the exact date when work will be completed. Elaborate plans are being made for one of the biggest celebrations ever staged in an outlying business section when the lights are turned on. Four bands have been engaged for a parade in which city officials, mounted and motorcycle police, societies, both fraternal and civic, and numerous floats will participate. Stores will be decorated between 30th and 36th Street on State Street for the occasion, which is truly to be one of the most important and enthusiastic gatherings ever held on the South Side. The town council will have labored to bring this work to a head as the highest praise and every good citizen will be asked to show his appreciation by being present at the celebration on the night the lights are turned on. Due notice through the daily papers and the South Side journals will be given of the exact date of this celebration. Watch for further announcements and be prepared to come and bring someone with you. RAIL STRIKE TIES UP TRAFFIC IN JAMAICA RAIL STRIKE TIES UP TRAFFIC IN JAMAICA KINGSTON, Jamaica, B. W., I. Dec, 2.—(Crusader Service).—The mismanagement of the railway by government bureaucrats has aroused great public indignation here. Today the workers in the locomotive department, dissatisfied with the promises made by the government, struck. It is expected the engine drivers will also quit work. The Dive Near Wendell Phillips ALPHA Don't let this disturb you, dear reader, it does not matter much to your Alderman or he would start a fight against it. Just remember that your children are put in danger by such places. Remember it. PRICE FIVE CENTS The Dive Near We Don't let this disturb you, dear reader, your Alderman or he would start a fight your children are put in danger by such pl VICE IS MENACE TO MORALS OF CHILDREN Almost within the shadow of the cloistered walls of Wendell Phillips High School where the youth of both sexes go daily to gain knowledge and seek inspiration, the horrid head of Vice raises itself and leers into the clean and pure faces of the boys and girls who pass morning and evening. This condition exists in spite of protests on the part of press and pulpit and the building at 206 East 39th Street still houses women who ply their filthy trade of selling body and Saloon Downstairs A saloon on the ground floor, in the back of which men of all types sit at shiny tables and engage in games of chance, while above them a house of ill fame which is only rivaled by those of the notorious Brown Brothers equals in degradation. Under-world characters from all over the city come to this resort of vice and those working people who attend the night school sessions of Wendell Phillips must rub elbow with them in order to pass on the sidewalk by the principal of the Phillips High School has been advised of this hole of prostitution so that he can also aid in the protest to rid the neighborhood of this cesspool of vice. "Immune Brown Brothers Still Run" Despite all efforts to close the houses, alleged to be under the rule of the "famous Brown Brothers" at 3617 and 3625 Indiana Avenue, these houses still carry on their filthy trade within a stone's throw of the Y. W. C. A. It is alleged that certain underworld characters had the nerve to try to have members of The Whip staff indicted for the exposures which have appeared in its columns. When such audacity as this can be shown by the owners of houses of prostitution, it shows the extent and the depth to which vice in this section has been carried. All of Chicago's decent citizens are called upon to aid in the fight to remove these houses which are increasing every week that passes. EIGHT PAGES CAR Wendell Phillips reader, it does not matter much to fight against it. Just remember that much places. Remember it. MORRIS BESTED IN HOT DEBATE WITH DARROW Last Sunday afternoon at the People's Movement Hall, Clarence Darrow, Chicago lawyer (white), who gained fame in the MacNamara case and in his fight against the capitalistic system, won over the great Edward Morris, colored, also a great lawyer in a debate over the proposed new Illinois constitution. Morris is a member of the constitutionalition which drafted the new instrument. He also was successful in revising and improving upon the civil rights bill in the present constitution. Present Laws Sufficient Darrow won the debate by picking fallacies in the new revenue laws, the unfairness of the new provision which denies bail in many cases, and upon the proposition that the present laws under the constitution are sufficient if they were enforced. The hall was crowded to the overflow. The reliance was fully appreciative while the master minds deliberated. It was the consensus of opinion that Morris was shaded by his brilliant rival. CLAIM KU KLUX ATTEMPT TO OBSTRUCT MAILS CLAIM KU KLUX ATTEMPT TO OBSTRUCT MAILS WASHINGTON, D. C. Dec. 2.—(Crusader Service)—Reported bold attempts of the Ku Klux Klan to interfere with United States in Louisiana and Texas today brought the organization under direct jurisdiction of the Federal government. What action President Harding and his attorney-general will take is, however, problematical, when it is remembered that this administration has done absolutely nothing to curb the activities of the vicious klan in the past. Details of the reported interference with the mails are lacking, but it is understood that the klan has been attempting to bar northern colored newspapers from Louisiana and Texas and other parts of the South.

The Nationalist delegations fused today and asked the conference secretariat to be admitted on the ground that Turkish sovereignty over Egypt disposed of by the Sevres treaty is naturally before the conference which is to revise that treaty. The statement declares that Egypt regards herself as absolutely independent and not a British protectorate, protests against the presence of England in the Valley of the Nile and ask the powers to declare Egypt free. The Egyptians call attention to the fact that freedom of the Suez Canal is only mythical now under British control.

RIETORS THE CHICAGO WHIP NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.—(Crusader Service.)—Telling a story of poverty, broken promises on the part of the United States government and of the high-handed actions of naval officers in his native island, Hon. Rothschild Francis, member of the Colonial Council, St. Thomas, V. I. editor of The Emancipator, addressed a mass meeting of his countyfemen at St. Mark's Hall. Mr. Francis assured his hearers that Virgin Islanders although under the Stars and Stripes and subject to all the burdens of American citizenship are not citizens. Because of this fact operation of the Volstead Act had destroyed the principal industry of the islands—rum distilling and today the people are faced with a bitter speaker and Mr. A. A. Berle, attorney of the islanders, for civil government to supersede the naval autocracy now crushing out the lives of the inhabitants The islanders propose, through their leaders, to memorialize, congress to give them relief from naval rule and the privilege of American citizenship.

They were told that there were no seats available except down in front. Nevertheless two of them entered the theatre and found several vacant seats in other places of the house. They were restrained from taking these seats, however, and told that they would be compelled to occupy the seats pointed out. One of the men then asked for a refund of his admission price, and was given it. The third man applied at the ticket office for a ticket carrying a package. He was told that no persons were allowed to enter the theatre carrying packages. Gets Rid of Package He went away and returned later without the package, and like the other men, was told that the only seats available to him were "down in front." When they protested at the ticket office that other seats were vacant, they were told that "the theatre doesn't cater to colored people any way, and they had to take those seats or none at all." They were told the same thing by one of the ushers. HOW ONE MAN CURED SMOKING CAR EVIL DARBY, Pa., Dec. 2.—How a colored railroad passenger in South Carolina maintained his rights against white invaders of the smoking and wash rooms is told in a letter of Wm H. Summerson of Darby, Pa., made public today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City. "Leaving Charleston, S. C., October 29, 1922, on the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad for Philadelphia," says the letter in part: "I took a seat in coach 1014 which in appearance was the same as the one occupied by the whites. In the forward end of the coach were, on the left, ladies' toilet and on the right, ladies' wash room. About 15 minutes after the train left Charleston. I noticed a young man go into the ladies' toilet, after coming out he then went into the ladies' wash room; about 10 minutes later 2 men did likewise. I at once thought something was wrong so I began to investigate and I found that at the rear end of the coach, the smoking room with all accommodations for men had been taken over by the whites and our men were obliged to use the women's toilet and if they wanted to smoke, they had to go to the platform of the car to do so, and at one time 6 or more were there smoking while the train was speeding along. "Shortly after noting these facts, the train conductor came along and I asked him, 'what about the men's smoking room and their toilet in that coach,' and he said that we would have to use the women's and go to the platform, if we wanted to smoke. I then said to him that it was against the law of the Inter-State Commerce and that I would report it. "Later I secured the names of a few witnesses which I here send you _____. While I was getting these names the conductor told me 4 seats of talking to 2 white men. Shortly afterward they disappeared into the smoking room and a short while after that I noticed a change and the smoking room was vacated by the whites and turned over to us before we reached Florence, S. C." Remarkable Preparation Makes It Easy For Anyone to Quickly Grow Long, Soft, Silky, Lovely Hair. BOOZE OUTLAWED VIRGIN ISLANDS FACING RUIN By N. B. Dodson. NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.—While James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is at Washington working to have the United States Senate enact the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill into law, Dr James E. Shepard, president of the National Training School at Durham N. C., is making a direct appeal to the South to put an end to mob violence. The text of Dr. Shepard's address "The ravening mobs of Georgia and Texas—The closing of the door of conscience in the breasts of those in authority—the damning of the stream of mercy that should flow always and ever in the life of every civilized man in this Christian country, makes the black man again knock at the door of a white man's justice. There is nowhere else for the southern Negro to go. How futile to look to any other part of the country to superimpose a government upon the actions of the South when it has its own self-imposed laws. If men who make solemn oath to support the laws which they in their sovereign power have written, will not entrench them, how can we expect any other influence to exercise any control? And so it is to the conscience of the South we appeal once again. "When a black man murders or outrages, he serves no notice on the leaders of his race. They know nothing of it until the crime is done and he has fallen into the hands of his white sheriffs and governors. And once there by every condition of chivalry the Negro is entitled to the white man's protection. The law which invests the guiltiest with the presumption of innocence is the Anglo Saxon's law. "Lynch must be stopped in the South and by southern white people. If it could be stopped by anybody else on God's great earth the South would lose the moral victory to which a gain so great would entitle our people. This is our sectional sin for which there is no vicarious atonement. The South must stop its mobs crimes or the mob will ruin the South." "Our civilization stands impeached in the courts of all the civilized world. Crimes which long' since have been too horrible even for the heart of Central Africa, are with impunity committed by thousands who claim the blessings of the most orthodox Christianity and the laws of the purest blooded patriotism." Receiver Ask Mitchell for $11,000 RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 2.—Receivers for the Mechanics' Savings Bank here have demanded that John Mitchell, former president, liquidate personal debts of $11,000.

PIGGLY WIGGLY WIGGLES BROKE IN NEW YORK NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.—The sudden financial collapse of the Manhattan Piggly-Wiggly Corporation a few days ago has brought financial ruin to hundreds of colored citizens of Harlem who owned thousands of dollars worth of stock in the concern. Not long when the corporation apparently foresaw the possibility of failure a staff of colored stock-salesmen was recruited for the purpose of unloading the practical worthless securities on matters of the colored race who were easily misled because of the supposed success of the pretentiously established stores. Had 42 Stores The corporation operated forty-two self-service stores but the prices asked for commodities were very low, perhaps because of the necessity of fighting competition. The petition in bankruptcy was involuntarily filed by three creditors, with claims aggregating $4,100. The liabilities were estimated at $1,250,000 and assets at $350,000. Judge Augustus N. Hand appointed Percival Wilds, 2 Rector St., receiver, under a bond of $25,000. The petitioning creditors charged preferential payments to certain creditors after insolvency. Attorneys for the company ascribed its financial difficulties to "the opening of too many stores in too short a space of time and the pressure of creditors." Only New Yorkers Hit This failure involves only the Manhattan group of twenty-one stores operated under subsidiary management and does not affect 1,100 Piggy-Wiggy stores operated all over the country. At the time of the alleged bankruptcy twenty-one stores were being operated by the Manhattan Company, in addition to some twenty-one locations up-State and in nearby States, under the direction of subsidiary companies. Pericular Wilds, the receiver of 2 Rector St, whose bond was fixed at $25,000 by Judge A. N. Hand, will take immediate possession of the stores in which customers enter through a turnstile and pass through alleys with a basket, with which they are expected to fill with groceries taken from the shelves. Mr. Wilds has had previous experience in chain store receiverships. James W. Elliott, the master spirit of the promotion, had no comment to make on the allegation of bankruptcy. A telephone call to his home brought the information that he was ill and under a physician's care and would answer no questions. Vincent L. Leibell, of Phillips, Mahoney & Leibell, 51 Chambers St., attorneys for the Manhattan corporation, commented on the situation, saying: "The financial difficulties of the company is due to their having over-extended themselves. They set up too many stores in too short a space of time. Because of pressure over and over and of certain financial assistance to materialize it was deemed best in the interest of all creditors to consent to the receivership as preliminary to a reorganization of all the firm's affairs. The creditors' meeting will be held as soon as the receiver's accountants are in a position to make a statement. 35c"Danderine"Saves Your Hair—Ends Dandruff!

Hubert Julian, a colored flyer of the Canadian Air Service, were features at Curtis Field, Garden City, L. I., last Sunday. The aerial circus was held under the auspices of the American Legion for the benefit of the widow and four children of Lieut. Melvin W. Maynard, "the flying parson," who was killed recently. Lieut. Julian landed in a farm yard two miles from the field, frightening the farmer so much that he ran into one of his own chicken coops for safety. DISASTROUS FIRE RAGES IN LIBERIA (Afro-American) MONROVIA, Dec. 2.—One of the most destructive fires which has visited the city in recent years completely burned, and the Spanish Consulate Sunday and threatened for a time the steamship offices of the English Elder Dempster Line. The extent of the loss is unknown. As soon as the alarm was heard, crowds of people rushed to the scene, but there was no hope of saving the building or anything therein, so they stood and looked on. Inmates of the hotel declared that they saw Major Joseph Copeland with a lamp go down into the cellar to look up a moving-picture film entitled "Rock of Ages." The hotel was a light blaze when Faulkner appeared on the scene running barefoot from the seashore where he was engaged by the Government, but he attempted to enter the building to save valuables, but was driven back by the heat. The electric light plant went with the hotel. After the embers cooled, the remains of Copeland's body were found HAFFNER & MARX that appeals to all lovers clothes.

FINEMAN 9 . --- SHERIFF THROWS GARVEY'S STUFF INTO STREETS NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.—(Crusader Service.)—The branch office of the U, N, I, A., the defunct "Daily Negro Times" and the monthly "Blackman," which has not appeared as yet although Garvey announced it for publication in September, located at 504 Lenox Avenue was closed by the sheriff last week and the office furniture placed on the sidewalk. During the convention last August, Mr. Garvey rented the store which is less than a block from his main office and placed flaming red-lettered signs in the window announcing that a new enterprise would be located there. Less than two months after actually occupying the "branch office" he and his office were incontinently thrown out for inability to pay the $250.00 monthly rent due the landlord. Close Restaurant Too The restaurant at 73 West 135th Street has also been forced to close its doors. No reason has as yet been given by Mr. Garvey, and probably none will be forthcoming. The apparent fact is that ever since Garvey's flirtation with the Ku Klux Klan and his advocacy of its plan for a white man's country in the United States, the few thousands of members who had weathered the failure of the Black Star Line and the many evidences of bad business management have been steadily dropping away. With the closure of three of his "businesses" in Haitem in less than a year of his followers are losing faith in the "Negro Moses" whom they were formedly wont to describe as "a man sent by God to redeem the race."

Finest Assortment Of The Best In Gent's Furnishings Get Your Christmas Presents O. FINEMAN DOCTOR BEATEN UP; ASKED FOR A PULLMAN RALEIGH, N. C., Dec. 2.—Refusal to provide Pullman accommodations from Raleigh to Portsmouth, Va., and an assault alleged to have been committed merely because the plaintiff tried to secure a berth on a sleeping car, form the grouns for one of the most brutal damage suits, in the history of the Seaboard Air Line Railway Company and the Pullman Company, according to the Pittsburgh Courier. The suit for $35,000 follows a complaint lodged by Dr. J. J. Jones of Hampton, Va., one of the most prominent men involved in the case, alleges that the plaintiff and his wife are prominent in Virginia society, cause Portsmouth to Raleigh on a Pullman car on May 24, 1922, to attend a meeting of the alumni of Shaw University, but that the plaintiff received treatment little short of murderous when he attempted to secure accommodations for the return trip of June 2. Lynching Threatened Dr. Jones alleges that when he applied for a Pullman berth at the Union Station, he was informed that he could secure space after he got on the train. The conductor, whose name is given by Byans, refused to sell Dr. Jones anything except a drawing room, asserting that the physician would be lynched if he attempted to ride a berth to Portsmouth. At this time, a porter told the physician that there was room in a rear Pullman, but without further provocation, the conductor proceeded beat up his passenger, knocking him down and otherwise maltreating Severely Beaten The details of the alleged assault are set forth in the complaint as follows: "He grabbed the plaintiff in the collar, struck him violently on the head with some instrument, knocked him down the aisle, beat him over the head severely, cut his lips, knocked out a number of his teeth, broke his nose, stamped him on the stomach, which caused the plaintiff to suffer a rupture, broke his spectacles and seriously and severely injured one of his eyes, choked him and dragged him in a body and through the day coach for whites in his mouth, threw him in the colored coach and threw his hat in behind him. Dr. Jones claims that the above treatment reacted to his permanent injury in the sum of $25,000 and asks, in addition, to positive damages of $10,000.

Answering a telegram "from his Colored supporters" sent by the Equal Rights League, Senator Lodge, who during the campaign agreed to put the Dyer before the Liberian bill, wired: "I shall do all I can to get Dyer bill disposed of." He also said the democrats would obstruct. Thereupon President M. A. N. Shaw wired Senator L David L. Walsh, democrat, and now influential in that party in the Senate, to break up the solidity of the democratic opposition, putting the bill above party politics. The league is also taking advantage of the fact that Vice-President Coolidge, presiding officer of the Senate, is from Massachusetts, and declared against lynching in the 1920 campaign.

The resolution was passed unanimously. SENATE MAY NOT CONFIRM COHEN'S JOB WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 2, — (Crusader Service).—It is the general feeling here that there is little chance of the Senate confirming the appointment of Walter L. Cohen, republican of New Orleans, to the office of Controller of Customs of that port. The opposition in the republican Senate is intense and the opinion is that a big majority of the senators will vote against confirmation. It is suggested in some quarters that the appointment was merely a gesture by President Harding around election time, and that the President fully recognized at the time of the appointment that there was little chance of getting the Senate to confirm it.

SOUTH PLANS TO SOLVE PROBLEM SOUTH PLANS TO SOLVE PROBLEM ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 2.—(Special.)—Another important step in the South-wide movement for better race relations was taken when eighteen representative North Carolina women met in Raleigh, on October 12, accepted membership in the State Committee on race Relations, and gave out a vigorous declaration of their principles and purpose. After a day given to earnest study of the interracial situation, the group drafted and gave to the public the following statement: "We are conscious of a world condition of restlessness in which race friction plays a conspicuous part. We cannot ignore the fact that this presents a problem in which the South is so acutely involved that we are conscious that the eyes of the world are upon us, questioning our course. We cannot shirk the responsibility of taking up the challenge, grasping the opportunity presented, seeking a solution to this problem and demonstrating it on our southern soil. "We believe that unrest existing between two different races dwelling side by side under the same economic system and the same government can be lessened, and eventually dispelled by a course of justice and fair play. When one race exceeds the other in numbers, in possessions and in opportunity, there is but one solution. As a Christian people we hold the elephant of the situation as the cultivation of an attitude of fairness of good will and a conscious determination to establish an understanding sympathy."

NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.—(Crusader Service.)—Following the opening of Ku Klux Klan headquarters in this city by the Rev. Mr. Oscar Hylan, democrat, issued instructions to his commissioner of police, Richard Enright, to drive the klan out of New York City, Mayor Hylan's letter to his commissioner of police follows: "The Ku Klux Klan or any secret organization of similar character and purpose, is a menace to our city, state and nation. The people of the city of New York will not tolerate their existence within the confines of our metropolis. Do not leave a stone unturned to ferret out these despicable, disloyal persons who are attempting to organize a society, the aims and purposes of which are of such a character that were they to prevail, the foundation of our country would be destroyed. "I noticed in yesterday morning's World that Rev. Dr. John Reach Stratton and Rev. Oscar Haywood, D. D. of Calvary Church Church, are alleged to be connected in some way, with this secret organization. If this is so, a little police attention along this line would not be out of order. "Go after the Ku Klux Klan and do not let them get a foothold in New York City. It is to be regretted that the men of the cloth, regardless of their denomination, would have anything to do with an organization whose purpose is as vile as that of the Ku Klux Klan.

Levy, grand master of the organization and presiding justice of the Municipal Court of the City of New York. Judge Levy said he hoped to enlist other Jewish fraternal organizations in a fight on the Ku Klux and eventually he suggested that Jewish and all other fraternal bodies opposed to the klan should be merged into one big organization to wage relentless warfare on the klan. His decision to ask the Independent Order of Brith Abraham to help in making an end of the klan was reached after reading newspaper accounts of how school children were being used to propagate the vicious doctrines of the klan and distribute Ku Klux literature throughout the city. Circulars distributed through the media of these school children contained an appeal designed to engender hatred of the foreign-born, and the Negro. CORNS Don't hurt, a bid!

The cause is Baby Charles Wright, 13 months of age. But little Charles did not effect the reconciliation as babies generally do in the movies, or as the baby in the well known cartoon does, by gurgling—"Mamma love Papa—Papa love Mamma." To love the contrary, If Charles could talk, he would probably say, "Papa sure does hate Mamma." But back to the story—Mr. and Mrs. Wright are drawn more closely together today because little Charles is at the point of death. His skull is fractured. Papa Wright's aim was poor that night he fought Mamma Wright. When he picked up a milk bottle and hurled it, he fully intended to crack Mamma's cranium. He must have been little English on the left, however, for it certainly swerved and caught Charlie back of the ear. A cranium was cracked, all right, but it wasn't Mamma's cranium, it was the baby's.

He says in part: "An alliance of Oriental people with the avowed purpose of wresting all Asia from the 'white grip' is the goal for which Japan is heading. "The foreign office in Tokyo calls this movement for a united yellow race the 'Pan-Asiatic League.' Nationalists in India call it the 'All-Asia Movement.'" It is the movement pregnant with possibilities far beyond the mere object of ridding Asia of the white man's economic dominance. Rather is it the seed of a mighty, movement that may yet sweep the caucasians from their own spheres. "To this end the Imperial Japanese Government proposes to take the main step in its hastening succession of clever deeds in diplomacy. Japan is almost ready to invite the great powers of the world to attend a world congress on immigration and Racial discontent." BUT Japan knows all too well, far in advance of the convening of such congress, that the Oriental peoples Get a Home You know that in the country. You there on the lake and the city life.

"Japan knows that such a conference must end unfavorably to the Asiatic, to the African, to the Australoid. "But once Japan has been successful in drawing a definite declaration from the white nations that the Oriental is persona non grata to all white peoples, then the first great unifying force among the Oriental peoples will have been fashioned. "Returning home, seemingly defeated, but in reality with the fruits of richest victory, Japan, under the protestation that the Asiatic has been grievously insulted, will turn her eyes upon her Asiatic brethren and, as leader, decry the action of the white nations. "In a clarion voice of commanding and exalting tone her stentorian cry will sweep all Asia and Africa: 'The white man has refused to grant us equality. We must ally ourselves for protection against him lest the white man subjugate the yellow man in Asia as they have already subjugated the black race!' "By inverse application of results such a conference becomes the key for unification of the dark peoples into a mighty organization — numbering three-fifths of the earth's population. Its menace to the white race needs no elaboration." Husband, Dead, Had Two Wives NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.—When Mrs. Wethers instituted suit against the New York Central R.

SMITH Business everywhere is reported as satisfactory, with very little change in the aggregate. Temperatures at the present indicate that fall has departed and has relinquished its hold in favor of frosts and thin ice, emphasizing the approach of tardy winter. Retail business continues to increase, with continued indications of a splendid holiday trade. Price changes for the year are mainly downward. A good demand for fruits and vegetables is reported as the many articles of foodstuffs for the holiday meals. The early part of the month a slight slump in business was felt, but the reverse seemed to be through now and again, again a demand that leads everyone to believe that the holiday trade this year will surpass anything last year or for several years.

THANKSGIVING DINNER MUSIC--DANCING Private Dining Rooms LACEY'S CAFE 4658 So. State St. Call Drex. 4685 for Reservations "NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL A man kneeling in front of a door, holding a book. N OSEY WAS sitting in one of the South Side restaurants the other night and noticed that one of the gentlemen had an unusually large and long walking stick. Nosey also observed that the man constantly put the head of this cane to his mouth and before he had finished his meal the gentleman with the cane was very happy and staggered out of the restaurant feeling very fine. He left his wonderful cane standing near his table and Nosey, always curious, examined the stick putting the end to his mouth, fonding that there was a little tilt sticking to the outside and all one had to do was to suck and he got some of the best "booze" in the world. Wonderful walking stick only it makes you walk crooked instead of walking straight. . . . ONE OF THE South Side's most Sheikh-like dentist lost the friendship of one of society's reigning queens on account of the condition of his nice automobile. It seems as if this beau Brummel, whose offices are out 47th Street way drove up to take this nice and refined lady to theatre before cleaning out his car. The girl was amazed to see empty whiskey bottles, broken bits of meat and bread from sandwiches and the upholstery sticky from other food. What peeved the lady most was that she scratched her hands and dirtied her white gloves on the cockle burs and mud on the robe with which she tried to protect herself from the cold. The good but handsome dentist could not be blamed. He had had no chance to pay any attention to that car since the night before and he kept his engagement to the nice lady without even going to bed from two night before. In the last life, why should a girl—even a nice girl—get mad about a little dirt accumulated in travel? . . . SOME MEN never learn matter how old. Nosey found out that the old gentleman with a large family was still trying to take the young debatantes out to dinner and last week he was introduced to a demeure little thing who was supposedly from Philadelphia. The dinner went off well, but the old man with raven black hair made one mistake. He showed her his bank-roll of some three hundred dollars which he had largely for show. The little sweet girl "showed" him and now the old man has told his family that they will have to economize as he just lost five hundred dollars on the stock market. Chicken market, says Nosey. --- EACH CUP tells its own tale. Nosey found an ambulance in front of one of those large apartment buildings out on Wabash Avenue the other night. On investigation he found out that the party had been in "good spirits" when they tried some of that last "hootch" and then people got pomaine poisoning and had to go to a private hospital. The husbands are footing the bill for their illness, yet they need their husbies' cash to get that violent "hootch". Some day death is going to be a guest at one of these parties and then the ladies will not be able to tell their husbies' such fanciful stories as to their wheabouts at night. --- YOU KNOW every man is not a fool and Nosey had to laugh when he found out how a jealous husband whose wife did permit to have a key tricked her. Instead of going out on his run, he came back to the flat and found out that the bell did not work. So he put on his Pullman uniform and beat on the door, saying, "Open in the name of the law." Confusion broke loose within and when a frightened wife came to the door she really thought the law was without as she could not see well in the dark. When "the law" entered and she saw her husband she fainted and some of the company went out the back. This is a tip for others.

Eighth Infantry Notes By 1st Lieut. Matthew R. Johnson. As public officer, in this article, I must call your attention to the imperative fact, that the citizens to whom the 8th should mean much are allowing themselves to become neglectful in their enthusiasm for the regiment. To be effective, enthusiasm must be continuous. By this, I mean that now since we are at peace, we are apt to pay little or no attention to matters of our military organization. We have too early forgotten the lessons learned in the late World's War; hundreds of young men who were drafted in Chicago regretted that they had not taken advantage of the opportunity which afforded them millefamilies while from other states wished for the opportunities which were available to the Chicago young men for military training. And to those who should take advantage of the facilities that are at their disposal. I must again say, they are very imprudent and injudicious. We must fully realize that our Military Institution is just as necessary as our churches, banks, clubs, fraternal societies and other businesses. And like unto these; churches, banks, etc., their success can only be obtained through the support that is given by the public. It is true that those who survive the late World War have had experience, but what of the young men, who should be prepared for that which is an uncertainty? You may ask, "How can I help?" or, "what should I do?" or, How does it affect me?" First, by your interest in our military institution, second, inculcate patriotism in the hearts and minds of the present generation. And if you are within the age limit make yourself an integrant part of our organization. Chicago, with its enormous colored population might some day regret their laxity and non-interest in one of its greatest and most powerful organizations. With an average of approximately 100 colored men their laxity there should be unfulfilled ranks. On the other hand, there should be a waiting list. Great pressure was brought to bear in convincing those in authority, that our regiment was worthy of Federal recognition. Shall we let those efforts be set at naught? We are "carrying on" but with the co-operation of the public we can better "carry on." URBAN LEAGUE NOTES The Xmas rush has begun. Industries are taking on more workers. The needle trades, which have been unable to get a sufficient number of laborers, are crying for more. The dry goods stores have begun to take on additional workers in their stock rooms. The Urban League, last week held a conference for teenage girls for one store, then had a request for twenty-five more. There has been a difficulty in finding schools suitable for a boy or girl who needs special supervision but does not necessarily require commitment to a state institution. The Urban League has tried to find just what facilities were available in this regard. It sent out a questionnaire to ninety-four schools—received answers from forty-three. Of this number seven admit whites only, and of the others none were available for the special purpose for which this questionnaire was sent out. However, there is a fairly good collection of school catalogues at the Urban League office which any person, who so desires, may consult. WILL SPEND A FEW DAYS IN CALIFORNIA Rev. Jas, A. Stout, pastor of Carter's Temple C. M. E. Church, will leave December 7 to spend a few days resting up with his family in Santa Monica, California.

We had only one change in the grand office force, viz.: Mr. Des Verney, Director from New York, who was succeeded by Mr. Freeman of New York. I know that all of you are holding your own in the line of service as usual. I often think of you and in many ways long to be in old Portland, where the roses bloom all the year. I trust that all of you are enjoying good health and that the machine is sparkling all the time. I extend to all my best wishes for a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year.

Elie's new ballet is a work de- voted to the weird, thrilling strains of the ceremonies and rites of what is sketchily known to the world as Voodoism. % Voodoism is said 10 be as lofty in ‘conception and pure in practice as any of the ancient Greek cults, to which, in fact, it bears a close resem- lance. “Its. initiations are closely guarded and it was only by a rare piece of good luck that M. Elie was able to witness one of them. He de- scribes his experiences as follows: “My young friend and guide took me with him back into the mountains at a considerable height. We were not a great distance from Port au Prince when we arrived at our desti- nation, “As we approached. and we were both dressed in simulation of the clothing of the mountaineers, “he ceremonial was in progress. We ‘could hear the drums, the evmbals, the spe- cies of castanets, the voices and the soft reed music. It shrilled my soul to hear it and I shivered with an cestacy of pleasure, combined with fear “We stole to the outer line of wor- shippers circling the fires and dancers and musicians and stood as though part of them, speechless and with bowed heads. “As I gazed T felt myself back in ancient Greece, whence thousands of years ago these same strange airs had been played and those erotic dancers performed the same tempo. M. Elie’s ballet on Voodoism will soon be produced on Broadway. “SHUFFLE ALONG" GIVES MONIT RAI CONCERT ~ “DLO HOMESTEAD” NEW YORK—Eubie Blake and Noble Sissle, who wrote the score and Iyrics" for “Shuffle Along,” brought suits this week against the New York Recording Laboratories, Inc, for $150 and $250, respectively, alleged to be due them for services endered.

Wednesday Morning, Nov. 29.—To-morrow (Thursday) morning promptly at 10 o'clock the Lincoln "Lion" and the Howard "Wildcat" will meet in their annual clawing contest, so correctly styled the "year's classic." Now unless we miss our guess there is going to be considerable fur flying from the well primed backs of these animals. The meles will be staged at Griffith's Park, the home of Walter Johnson, Clark Griffith, et al., where base ball reigns supreme in summer and early fall with a slight trend toward foot ball during the reigning days of the pigskin. It is going to be a great game with an even greater treat for those who place entertainment above sports, for in the afternoon and evening following the game there will be parties and gayeties galore. Those who think differently are in for the surprise of their unfortunate lives. Certainly none of the fortunate who will see the contest predict anything other than a hard fought, bloody battle. Howard Should Win Those who approach the scene of battle expecting to see the same Howard that bowed in defeat to Hampton's warriors of two weeks ago, are in for an equal surprise. Regardless of the out-come, whether it be Lincoln or Howard, you can bet the old Canadian dime, fans and students will see a different Wildead from the one that was forced to how insubmission and be anointed with the emaculate last Saturday. With all die respects to Hampton, who boast one of the strongest teams ever chosen to represent the Virginia golf team, the brawny bunch, is most assuredly at her best in the "classic" melle. In fact we are of the opinion that this very thing is going to be the chief factor in the outcome of the contest. Both teams are being primed to the minute for the game, nothing is being left undone. Many Notables to Be Present Not since one year ago when a like feat was staged has so many notables, from as many different cities gathered with no other intention than to have fun and enjoy the efforts of some of our young men participating in what American negroes are fast beginning to accept as their leading sport. New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Pittsburgh and practically every city in the United States will be represented at this the greatest of all great athletic feats. In fact, from some of the cities whose whole delegations are coming to make the trip in auto-robiles, On the whole it appears to us that the affair has been correctly named "the classic." A Grudge Fight It will be remembered that Lincoln downed Howard last season in a hot filt that it was marred only through the fact that it rained and poured through out the battle. The score was close, to be exact — to —. Howard was beaten not disraced, but humiliated to the extent that this year's affair will prove one of the most grueling grudge fights ever witnessed between the two histi- oric rivals of the gridiron.

C.'s. This team is composed of former high school and college stars of Chicago and Cook County, while the Indianapolis team is made up of exclusive college stars from Indiana and other states. Pollard Coaches Lincoln Fritz Pollard, former Brown star Wills Fittin to Dempse Dollar C One of the few things that Jack Harrison Dempsey, white heavy-weight champion of the world, did while spending a few brief moments in Chicago, was to announce to the world that he has accepted AI Woods offer to participate in three bouts for which he is to receive one million dollars. It has not been definitely decided as yet, but it is believed that the three Dempsey will most likely bid "Strangler" Lewis, world's champion wrestler, in a mixed bout. Joe Beckett, heavy-weight champion of England, and Harry Wills, recognized as the most logical challenger for Dempsey's crown. Only Wills Has a Chance Regardless of the P. A'd argument to the contrary there rests little doubt in our mind but what both Lewis and Beckett are not of sufficient calibre to tackle the champion. Beckett is a smart battler but most assuredly not good enough to battle Dempsey. It will be remembered that some few months ago this same Beckett was mauled unmercifully by Georges Carpentier, whose fight with the Champion lack clearly demonstrated the class of the latter, especially when it comes to battling men of the Carpen- d Chronic Diseases made a specialty of treating Social Syphilis and all venereal diseases; tomach, Kidneys, Bladder, Heart, Pimples, Boils and Ulcers, Goitter THE CHICAGO WHIP OLD OF To Win ALL PARK THU and All American half of 1920 has en engaged by Mr. Bottoms to coach the Chicago eleven. Pollard is one of the few men who have made good as coach following a brilliant career as a player. In the Indianapolis team the Lin- colna are meeting what is undoubt- tie, Beckett and Lewis class. As for Harry Wills, we face an entirely different situation. Wills is as heavy as Dempsey, has the punch, the courage confidence and on a whole sizes up wonderfully against the champ. There is no doubt but that Dempsey will take but little chance with Wills. In the first place Wills will undoubtedly be the three men to tackle the champ. Oh no, the team certainly be poor management on the part of Kearns to allow his protege to dabble in fire of the Wills type at such an inopportune time. Million Dollar Proposition Perhaps never before in the history of prizefighting has a champion had such a remarkable proposition financially with such little danger of being dethroned. For instance, we have the champ engaging in three fights and being well paid in each case, and we feel safe in saying that there is little doubt of his falling until he has at least reached the end of this great money match. It is indeed wonderful: you have the chance of your life, Dempsey, and with the exception of one rough spot, in the person of one Harry Wills, you are bound to experience soft and silky sailing.

TATE TUCKS TUT TO SLEEP IN 4 ROUNDS TOLEDO, Ohio, Nov. 28 — Big Bill Tate of Chicago, handed Sir "Tut" Jackson of Washington Court House, Ohio, an awful walloping here last night in the fourth round of their scheduled twelve-round fight. Tut started out like a house a-fire landing on Tate at will in the first three rounds, to which Tut offered little resistance. But in the fourth round fans were facing a new Tate. The big fellow simply wanted for Tut to lower his guard and let the latter did, after which it was the first shouting. "Tate, Floors "Tut." In the third round Tate sent several telling blows to the stomach and head of his victim, the brunt of which Jackson could not withstand, and went sailing to the mat like a beef. At that, however, the beaten man was game time and again Tate sent hooks to the stomach of his victim, who each time came back for more. One thing in Tut's favor was confidence, the lad really believed that he could Tate's measure and never lost this confidence until the end. It was, after all, an interesting battle. Tate won, but not as soon as he should have. In fact his manner of attack was replete with blows. In the first place it made the contest threaten to become tiresome by the way he waited for Tut to tire in the early stages of the battle. Punch to the Cfin Ends It Tate ended the fight in the fourth stanza, when he opened up for the first time with blows that were hard enough to sting. A left hook to the face, another to the stomach and a terrific right to the body sent the Tutting person to the canvas for a brief period, or to be exact for the count of blows, to point the beast, however, and not until Bill took several more punches to the body did Jackson become a member of the well known Cuo Coo Club. Tut hit the floor like a stone wall, and did not move for several minutes after the referee had counted him out.

Bottomt's husky warriors from Chicago beat the Columbia Athletes here yesterday in a game replete with thirds from the very start. The final score was: Lincolnus, 8; Columbus, 6. The visitors were constantly threatening to do harm but only on two occasions did they plant their feet where footsteps really count. Superior generalship wan for Chicago. Bluett working at quarter was unusually cool and handled the team in a manner that made titem a terror in the colors of the Columbia team. Chicago started off like a house afire and before the game had gotten many minutes old a touchdown had resulted. Then the teams settled down to a bit of grunning battling, with the advantage slightly in the favor of the visitors, in the second period with Chicago in the 60, and the locals staged a terrific rally that for a moment threatened to ruin the Chicago bunch. The life of this threat was brief, however and after registering one touchdown, it was all over. Managers Poor Sportsmen Managers Poor Sportsmen On the whole it was a great game, indeed an enjoyable one to watch, but about the managers of the team we are not able to say so much. Three men control the team. They are by name, George Scott, B. W. Schweich and Andrew B. W. Schweich. The sport according to the reports circulated by the returning Lincoln players. There are few men in pro- fessional foot ball as fair as William Bottoms and we are in a position to know that when Sir William registers a kick it is valuable stock. A Whip representative called on Mr. Bottoms Monday morning and found the foot ball mogul somewhat upset over the results of the aftermath to the game. "How was the trip, Mr. Bottoms?" he was asked. "I was very concerned. I have seen if any better, but the managers and promoters of team are poor sportsmen." It seems that the Columbus management refused to live up to their contract and as a result the Chicago team would have suffered had not the hand of William Bottoms been strong enough to tide them over.

"Bari" Simms, champion billiard player of America, had little trouble in taking the first 250 points of his 1,000-point match with Minor Haney Tuesday afternoon. Both men were some what off form, but Simms was easily the master of the situation throughout. The game was slow, but interesting from other angles. It took something like 35 shots for Simms to run out, something that is not in the records of Bam when he is at himself. It might have been that Bam was somewhat inclined to take it easy after seeing that the big foreigner was hardly in his class. Many Prominent Figures Present Many of Chicago representative business saw the contest, which was held in the beautiful Dreamland Cafe dance room. Better yet the spectators were gentlely throughout time and again they applauded, but always recognized the proper time to remain quiet. Such ordinances are not always in evidence and it behooves us to speak of it whenever we have opportunity. Tha.ksgiving Day Lincoln vs. Howard at Washington D. C. (10:30 a. t.) Union vs. Hampton at Hampton By Al Monroe Perhaps the most conspicuous feature of the football game Saturday between Chicago and Wisconsin was the absence of enthusiasm. It was not only evident but disgraceful. Perhaps had the Chicago team showed to a better advantage and played the game that was expected by the fans and preached by Mentor Stagg, this condition would not have existed. But are we not aware of the long established fact that few teams are better than their praise, while conscientious teams strive to be as good as their praise. Now in this point we are inclined to think rest the cue for the fall of the Chicago hope, chances and enthusiasm, perhaps not perhaps so, but we do know the showing of the Chicago team was in a sense miserable and that the rooting of the students and members of the alumni was very little more. Let us hope the sunporters of the university eleven will wake up. Set a barrier in the form of praise, give them something to shoot at, and then register our kick. Not before. On our desk rests a report to the effect that the football game scheduled between Atlanta University and Morehouse College was called off last week because they could not agree on officials. Now this is a regrettable situation, it is certainly to be regretted that two race institutions of this calibre are forced to announce that no one could be secured to furnish a bit of fair arbitration in a contest that was to be imbedded in a path of true sportsmanship and fairness. Perhaps no section of the country is so thickly inhabited with schools as this in which these schools are located, where represented by the football world and loved worthy of mention. When we are forced to admit that the former stars of these teams yet in evidence on the scene of where they achieved success as football artists have not gathered any of the teachings of their coaches in a manner so as to be able to decide the vital situations of others we are ready to tow in the sponge. Anyway it was a disgusting situation if not a blow to the ability of the colored athlete. West, the great football player with the strong W. and J. team, is perhaps the most hard-luck player of the year. West is a great player, surely ten excel him in, all around play. He is most certainly one of the coolest players under fire the game has ever known, whether in defeat or victory. West will hardly receive mention on the all-mythical elephant, not because of flaws in the play of this sterling athlete but for reasons purely accidental. West has been, burt for the most part of the season. It is true that he played in several games, but there is no getting away from the fact that he was laboring under handicaps. Most assuredly if a man can be at his best while injured then away with science and coaches. Then in justice to the sterling ability of this great athlete we nominate as hard-luck champion of 1922: Charles West. The accomplishments of Hampton and Princeton present a like situation in the grid iron world of 1922. Princeton after a brilliant season climaxed it all with a set of brilliant triumphs over Yale and Harvard, recognized as the first if in foot ball. On the other hand Hampton thought to have little chance of doing big things in the strong field in the list of 1922 football history played spectacular all the way through and surprised the football world with a pair of brilliant triumphs over Lincoln and Howard. There may have been better teams than either Hampton or Princeton, but hardly any teams reckoned the chances of others and produced as many upsets as these two teams. To our way of thinking they represent the wonder eleven nominations for 1922. Morehouse vs. Fisk at Atlanta. Morris Brown vs. Atlanta University at Atlanta. Talladega vs. Tuskegee at Tuskegee. Va.

Imagine it, kind readers, of black Moton's answer be? We know that not drop from Moton's lips; to the contrary, in his apologetic mein and softly and hum-ful servility: "Don't worry; just leave the compromiser as are all of our pseudo leader, baned by the fundamental lack of manhood and of our foremost men compromisers.

TOO OLD TO COMPROMISE TOO OLD TO COMPROMISE When Georges Clemenceau, the "Tiger of France," the most brilliant and undaunted soul in the last Great Conflict, came to this country, to these American shores, he was advised and admonished by some of the "higher ups" not to make his speeches too radical but to tone them down. Clemenceau, altho eighty-one years old, was not dismayed, but with all the decision and firmness that made him the greatest living Frenchman, replied: "I am TOO OLD TO BE A COMPROMISER." Age has not addled the brain of the Frenchman; it has not dulled his ardor nor has it stultified his mind and soul. Clemenceau has never compromised the case of France and he never will. He stands forth majestically as the champion and great exponent of the Sons and Daughters of the French People. Clemenceau is a man of courage and of might; he stands as a living example to the black leaders who gaze in silence and wonderment upon him. We, the black people, of America have no outstanding figures; no men who are too old to compromise; no men who are undaunted and unmoved when pressure is brought upon them. Not one. We have Robert Russa Moton, who has just returned from Europe, and some claim that he is a great leader. Suppose right here in his native land some one told Moton just before he arose upon some commanding platform not to be "too radical" and to tone down his speech. Imagine it, kind readers, of black descendants. What would Moton's answer be? We know that no such gifted words would drop from Moton's lips; to the contrary he would smile and bow in his apologetic mein and softly and humbly answer in the acme of servility: "Don't worry; just leave that to me." Moton is a compromiser as are all of our pseudo leaders. Age and time, accompanied by the fundamental lack of manhood and courage, has made all of our foremost men compromisers. Not a single one is too old to be a compromise. The scholarly and pedantic DuBois, when called upon to take a man's stand in the one great moment of his life, during the war told the black people to forget each and every insult, overlook Jim Crow armies and cannon fodder troops, ignore burnings, beatings and lynchings and go on to war. DuBois was not too old to compromise. It would be foolish to ask whether Henry Lincoln Johnson and his allied political confederates would take a stand like Clemenceau. The American black leaders have compromised each and every issue that vitally concerned them and then sought to paliate their followers with smoke screen defenses about the great progress that has been accomplished by the black people in the last half century. It is hoped that Clemenceau's magnificent stand will fire the lethargic spirits of black people, that he will stir up their apathetic souls. It is hoped that stagnant blood and impoverished minds will be freshened and stimulated by the spirit of the "Tiger of France." If age has taken out the fighting spirit and vanished the vigor of youth still then let us look at aged and venerated seer of France who rises to an equal occasion exclaiming that "I may be an old man, but I am no compromise."

Thanks be to God for the great mediums of publicity that are battling with forces of sin and evil. On this Thanksgiving Day we of all people have many things to be thankful for. HEALTH HINTS By Dr. Troy Smith THE TREATMENT OF "COLDS." There is no common malady that has so many so called "cures" than the ordinary common "cold." Nearly every individual or family has a preparation or combination of remedies that they rely upon to relieve them of their "colds." These preparations range from a few capsules of quinine, a pint of whisky and rock candy to a combination of herbs taken in the form of hot teas; or the eating of a popular salve on the market known as "Vicks." There is no common malady that ordinary common "cold." Nearly every or combination of remedies that the "colds."

AFRICA NOT DARK CONTINENT, BUT MISUNDERSTOOD The druggist also has the habit, as most drug stores put up various formulae that are advertised as a positive cure for a "cold." The peculiar thing about these preparations of the druggist is that no two formulae are just alike, but all are sold for the same purpose, to cure a "cold." There may be a few druggists that do not make this so-called "cold cure" preparation, but they will dispense various "Laxative cold tablets" or "Stop that Cough Syrup," to any and everybody who has a cough, regardless of the cause. The cough may be the cough of pneumonia, tuberculosis, influenza, bronchial asthma, and if it's a child it may be the whooping cough, or measles, etc. Yet, who does the suffering? Certainly not the druggist nor the one who prepares these various preparations. I do not mean to say that there is no value in these various preparations. Many "colds" are cured by them and many "cold" are cured without any medication. I also do not want to discourage the use of household remedies for ordinary "colds," for often a "cold" is cleared up by taking a good hot bath, a saline purge of "Pluto water" or magnesium citrate and a hot lemon stew just before retiring. These are cardinal points in the treatment of all colds. It should be remembered that an ordinary cold does not last over 104 hours if "colds" are cured over the birth of time don't keep filling your system with "patent medicine," but seek medical advice is always best to seek medical advice early as often neglected "colds" lay the foundation for tuberculosis, pneumonia, and other respiratory infections. Another cardinal point about "colds" is that the stronger your system is the more able you are to throw off the "cold." Consequently, each measure you use to build up your system, such as a good nourishing diet, moderate exercise in the open, with comfortable protection from the cold and damp and plenty of rest in the form of 8 to 12 hours of sleep are factors not only to cure or throw off a cold, but are important factors in warding off other diseases. AFRICA NOT DARK HALT THE OUTLAWS CONTINENT. BUT SAYS EDITOR OF MISUNDERSTOOD NEW YORK PAPER NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2, (Cruzman Service) After a ten months intensive study of the hygienic, economic, social and religious condition of the native African, an international commission of experts in educational and missionary work has reached the conclusion that Africa is the "Continent of Great Misunderstandings" rather than the "Dark Continent," and that the country's vast potential strength in raw materials and the progress of its native peoples should be emphasized instead of its interior and agricultural edge. The port of the commission has been published by the Phelps-Stokes Fund. Seventy-five photographs and maps are used as illustrations. The report says: "Of the many misconceptions that still tend to limit the investment of capital in African industry and agriculture, to hamper the efforts of Colonial governments and discourage the support of missions, there are four of such importance as to require consideration in any effort to evaluate the educational possibilities. The first of those misunderstandings relates to the wealth of resources and natural scenery; the second is concerned with the health, well-being, continent and the promising possibilities of sanitary improvement; the third has to do with the improvability of the African people; the fourth with European and American influences." The report then proceeds to tell of the vast wealth of Africa, its diamond mines, gold fields, etc., and of the healthy climate in many parts of the continent where the effect of attitude has neutralized that of latitude and the result is a climate as healthy as any European or American climate. Even in the lower levels, the report says sanitary measures can eliminate unhealthfulness. As to the improvability of the Africans, the report stresses that natives occupy responsible positions in every colony visited by the commission and tells of the large number of physicians, lawyers and other professional and technical men who have successfully completed the requirements of the leading European universities. UNDER THE LASH OF WHIP UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP A column of constructive criticism of men and measures in the hope of correcting errors and evils. The greatest and foremost question that has been in the minds of the Americans, white, of course, the only thing that seems of real importance concerning which they would like to secure conclusive information from Monsieur Clemenceau about is whether or not there are any black troops in Germany. At this time when the fate of empires is at stake, when millions and millions of dollars are out owing to this country, the only question that can be asked of the man who juggled and pawned nations at the peace table at Versailles is, what about the black troops in Germany? The foxy and wily Frenchman has commented that he noticed the statue of Robert Gould Shaw, in Boston, who led the black regiment in the civil war. Satirically and ironically the Tiger of France is answering, "Why in the hell don't you lay off of the poor black people?" So it is stated that Emmet Scott, William Houston, William Henry Lewis and several other black men are going to profit personally out of the proposed five million dollar loan to Liberian government. The black man, if such being the case, is certainly learning adeptly and swiftly how big money is made out of politics. In fact, the black people are really putting over confidence game in style de luxe. Look at the Senegambian Garvey who has squandered but nevertheless secured over nine hundred thousand dollars. Black men bear watching for they are really getting wise. If they had been as wise during the war probably some of them would have been among the two hundred and fifty men who became millionaires by profiteering methods. Soon we will have some wooded estates, some butlers, valets, maids, air ships and yachts, etc. Watch the black man; he is getting wise.

The New York American's editorial reads as follows: "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People asks Governor Miller to do as Governor Allen of Kansas has done regarding the Ku Klux Klan. The latter has taken steps to suppress that anarchic body. "It appears that in western New York the clamorous kluxes are growing hold in their scurrilous denunciations of Catholics, Jews and Negroes.

THE EDITION Snappy Thoughts Bv E. F. S. Licker may be spelled with one on two k's, depending on the locality, but there is the same amount of 'l in it. "Grandma Felton was a senator in name only."—Well, well; so many are like that. There wasn't so much talk of the high cost of living in the old days when they used flour sacks to make underwear for the children. "Bankers are sure of the future." Well, bankers are among the very few who can be sure of the future. A rolling stone gathers no moss, but a rolling pin certainly gathers the long green. Faith makes the grocer send the bill; hope keeps the account on the books; charity at last closes the incident. In some localities cleanliness is next to godliness, but in others it is next to impossible. Seems like every person knows how to cure a cold except the person who has one. A man's pocket is a more sensitive spot than his solar plexus, says an old-timer. This Week in History Sunday, November 26 Sojourner Truth died at Battle Creek, Mich., 1883. Monday.

Groesbeck was asked, in a telegram sent to him by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, to ascertain and make public the views on the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill held by his appointee to the Senate vacancy caused by the resignation of Truman H. Newberry. The telegram states that the 45,000 colored voters of Michigan expressed themselves unmistakably on this issue, defeating Patrick Kelley, the senator primeminor because of his vote against the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill in the House of Representatives. The telegram which was signed by Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the Advancement Association, is as follows: "National Association for the Advancement of Colored People representing 100,000 members and in behalf of 45,000 colored voters in Michigan respectfully urges that attitude with regard to Dyer Anti-Lynching bill now before U. S. Senate of man you appoint to Senate vacancy caused by resignation of Senator Newberry be ascertained and made public. Colored voters in Michigan expressed themselves unmistakably on this issue, defeating Patrick H. Kelley in primaries because of his vote against Dyer bill in House of Representatives."

This Friday evening at 7:45 the funeral of Dr. C. C. Morris will be shown at the church in moving pictures. The pastor conducted the funeral services of Sergent Edward Means, at the 8th Regiment Armory last Wednesday morning. He was the faithful husband of the president of the Missionary society of our church Olivet Baptist Church 31st Street and South Park Avenue Lacey K. Williams, D. D., Pastor Anniversary Services Continued The supernatural influence of the Holy Spirit was well demonstrated in last week's program. Many of the ministers of the city with their congregations, and some with their choirs, constituted the program. They came with burning enthusiasm which ignited with the intense heat already here. Each night the previous church seemed to have dropped its mantle on the one to follow—in that way, the spirit of truth was kept in one continuous line that one could well say, "It is good to be here." Sunday morning at 11:00 o'clock the older members of the church were given place on the program—each one was called upon to tell in his own way just what was in his mind—some had been connected with the church for thirty years, some forty, some fifty and one even a longer time. Deacon S. A. Griffin, chairman of the Deacon Board, spoke on the organization of the church. He told how it was organized with three members and continued for three years with absolutely no increase; he then named the ministers from the foundation to the present time, and spoke of the growth of the church under each administration—he beautifully brought out the contrast between the three membership time and the more than nine thousand present membership. Dr. E. W. D. Isaac of Nashville, Tenn. was then called upon to introduce Dr. J. B. Perkins, Memphis, Tenn. who was to administer the gospel at that hour. Dr. Isaac in concluding his introductory of Dr. Perkins, went into the Overflow Meeting where he was to speak. It is needless to attempt to tell you what Dr. Isaac said, for you know that paid due tribute to the occasion, because he is a man of national reputation. Dr. Perkins took for his subject, "A Noble Celebration and Achievement of the Greatness and Goodness of God."—Quoting scripture found in the 147th Psalm. After brief preliminaries, the speaker stuck closely to his outline when he had reached the highest point in his zealous power the words of the text seemed to have touched the burning instinct of the inner soul and the Holy Spirit passed through the church as a rush of Mighty Winds. 3:00 o'clock was citizen's hour—a big platform meeting was held. Editors Jos. D. Bibb and R. S. Abbott, Hon.s B. S. Turner, W. B. Douglas, L. B. Anderson, Wm. E. King, Ex-Gov. Chas. S. Deneen, A. H. Roberts and Major R. R. Jackson, Prof. S. L. Jones acted as master of ceremonies. We are hoping that much good may come out of this meeting in the way of helping those in the administration of civic affairs to see the need of Christian influence to work out the unsolved problems that are confronting this city today. At night Dr. Perkins again spoke to a filled house. Monday night Dr. Isaac lectured, his subject being "Casting Diamonds Before Hogs." Tuesday and Wednesday. Harvest Home Festival; Thursday, Thanksgiving services. CARTER'S TEMPLE C. M. E. CHURCH. 43RD AND CHAM- PLAIN AVENUE Rev. James A. Stout, Pastor.
