Pickens of Morgan College—A plea for The "Convicted" Arkansas Afro- Baltimore, Md., Nov. 26, 1919. To the President of the United States, His Excellency, Thos. Woodrow Wilson, Washington, D.C. My dear Mr. President—It is the mind of multitudes of good Americans that the legal department of the general government should not stand aside and see scores of American citizens legally murdered and onslaved in Helena, Ark., simply because those Americans happen to be also Negroes. It is well known that colored people riot only in defending themselves against white people in this country. This, of course, is not necessarily due to any superior virtues in colored people. But people who are hopelessly in the minority, numerically, and more than in a minority materially—such people do not start riots, and we all know it. More Negroes were murdered in the Eminence and Helena, Arkansas, riots, and ONLY Negroes are being convicted—by juries composed of all white people—friends and relatives of the white rioters, if not the actual rioters themselves being on these juries. This is outrageous. The President of the United States must be interested in a matter like this. If Arkansas be right in killing these Negroes for attempting to defend themselves what earthly harm could come to Arkansas by having the Federal Government to investigate the matter and find out and actually the antioffences of Arkansas? Congress should be urged to investigate this case. Southern. "Justice" Decatur, Ga.,—David Smith, (white, a truck farmer, was charged with committing a criminal assault on a little girl, Lucinda Davis, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Davis, members of the race, living near this town. The father of the girl engaged two lawyers to prosecute the guilty party and the case was called for trial. Four days previous to the trial the two lawyers game to the father and tried to have him withdraw the charge. He refused and went to see some of the best people in Decatur and Atlanta, and he was advised to change his lawyers. Although he had used these two lawyers one hundred dollars, he secured Harry Hill as his counsel and paid him one hundred dollars more. Despite the strong case presented by Mr. Hill, a mistrial was ordered. The case was to be called again the first Monday in this Wilberforce University, was given last Thursday evening, by Miss Hail Smith—Re: C. E. Bell, pastor of Centenary M.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Fighting Prejudice in the District of Columbia Supreme Court Restaurant To Honor Grimke-"Jim Crow" Negroes Again-Manning Washington, D. C., Proof, Neal H. Thomas, a member of the faculty of the W. St. Hirg School for our students, lived for some years, in his home in Chicago, O. This individual is still in active part in work and work in the school. What a chance that Mr. N. and I have had to teach in the North! We are watching to see how many of the "blue Norwegians" here are going to his asstitute in this fight for the race. The Grinleids, Proof, Proof, Kelly Miller, Judie Tentrell, Proof, Gee W. Cook, Rosie C. Bruce, and a score of choirs are being watched to see what if any part, they take in this contest: For a month, or more, Proof, Thomas has been fighting the Justices of Hon. Joseph C. Manning the District Supreme Court to make it an open the restaurant in the Court House to colored lawyers, litigants, and the public in general. His efforts have been met with all sorts of sub have been met with all sorts of sickness, but Mr. Thomas is not the one to be set aside, or fooled by subterfuges. Two colored ladies, litigants in the Court, were recently refused before a large crowd of white people when they required to the restaurant for lunch. Mr. Thomas did not want to bring their names into the controversy, since they had a case to be decided by these same judges who were thought to be responsible for the discrimination. So he went down to test it last week, to get his own case. He was given three excuses in the name of the Court, namely that the restaurant was for a "Bar Association" that the Court was going to establish a colored restaurant, and that colored people could not be served by order of the Court. Mr. Thomas sent three vigorous letters to the Court denying its right to exclude colored people from its right to the Court denying its right to exclude colored people from its right to the Court House, or to give over our public building to any white "Bar Association" to which all law could not belong, or to insult the Hon. Archibald H. Grimke # LE COPY FIVE CENTS RACE! AL H. THOMAS Rising His Rights As A and Citizen the District of Columbia Restaurant — To like — "Jim Crow" again—Manning "He promised me to take up the matter with the full bench of six justices, so I told him I would be on hand, to test the case again. The colored people should go there now and then to show the community that we have rights there. I told the justice I was protesting although I was his subordinate in the public schools of which he is heard, but that he could have my job, imprison me for—contempt of court, or do anything else to me he wished." Good! Although both branches of the congress have Republican majorities the restaurants of the House and Senate refuse our people alone of all the local public and visitors from out of the city. This and like discrimination, on top of the defeat of the Madden bill to wipe out "jim crow" cars as far as they affect interstate passengers, has not improved the morale of our people of this city and the country, to say the least. Southgrin "jim crow" Negroes are said to have helped to kill the Madden bill by writing to U. S. Senators and saying that its message would cause much blood-letting in the southland. Lord, have mercy! The local branch of the N. A. A. C. V. is to hold a public meeting, Dec. 10, in honor of the Third Baptist church, in honor of the Hon. A. H. Grimke's 70th birthday.

Except during “rush” hours cone has to wait from cight to ten min- utes for a Central Ave. car and, with ‘one or two exceptions, when they come, 0, such cars! ‘They evidently were here “when Noah shoved off.” Even during the “rush” hours two and sometimes three (each) “Woodland” and Buckeye Road cars will pass while one is waiting for a Central car.

Last ‘Thursday, another member of the Jewish race was appointed an as- sistant pdlice prosecutor. This makes two or thre in that deparjuent alone ‘This is the position that 8 refused a meniber of the race (R. R. Cheeks, Esq.) over three years ago by Mayor Davis and altho there have since been four or five similar vacancies, the Maschke-Davis administration (Maur- ice Maschke is a Jew) has steadily refused to give ar Afro-American one of the four appointments in that branch of the city’s service. The same thing that eaases the adminis- trition to refuse our people this small appointment is what caused it to “dump” Alex: H. Martin, our candi- date fora “Muny” judgeship at the recent election. And Mayor Harry L. Davis is’ an avowed candidate for governor of Ohio, next year. Good Lord! Four years mayor of Cleve- land and duving those four years he has also steadily’ refused to appoint an ‘Afro-American to's clerkship in the city hall. —hi—— SAME OLD “STUNT”! ‘The reappearance of “The Birth of a Nation” in some of the cheaper picture houses called forth an emphatic >. test to Gov. Cox. The national office was notified and added their protest with the result that the objection- able film was definitely withdraven from the state.—Cleveland Branch Bulletin, N. A. A. C. P. The foregoing is misleading and does NOT leave a truthful impress. ‘The fact is the result referred to had been accomplished by wire by the ed- itor of The Gazette before the “Cleve- land branch” got started in the mat- ter and “the’ national office notified.” If is about time the N. A. A.C. P. and some of its branches abandoned its old “stunt” of claiming all or even part of the credit for things it or they have NOT done or only helped to do. “The Old Reliable” Gazette secured “the definite withdrawal” of “Th Birth of a Nation” without assistance from the N. A. A. C. P. or any of its branches some time previous to the “reappearance” referred to. DU BOIS, A SOCIALIST? Mr. Steve Mason, of Bloomfield, Ky., writing The Gazette, recently, said: “{ notice DuBois’ article on re- construction. It is alright until he kets to the point where he advises our people to scratch the ticket. If T understand, he wants our people to vote for a Democrat”. We understand that Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis, is a So- cialist. If this be the case, he was undoubtedly indirectly trying to boost the interests of his party rather than those of the Democratic party. In either case he would be wasting his time, as far as our people are con- ree because if ever there was a time when they want nothing of cith- er the Socialist or Democratic parties it is now. Our experiences, as a race, at home and abroad, during and since the World War, have been such as to make all of our voters actually year for an opportunity to vote the Repub- ican ticket, especially in a national election, Editor DuBois showed our people, last year in June, at Washing- ton, D. C., that, tho highly educated ‘and able, he was not always a safe fee by any means. —$i — | “REDS” IN THE GOVERNMENT ‘The manner in which the Congress- ional Committee on Immigration is identifying employees of the U. S. Department of Labor with anarchists marked for deportation and saved by these Federal officcholders, lends great deal of color to the charges made by Senator James Watson, of Indiana, respecting the Federal Trade [Commission as a hotbed of revolution- aries, It is probable that when the [Watson resolution is acted upon and |an investigation of the Commission is made, additional facts will be forth- coming showing the oxtent to which the Wilson Administration has per- mitted, if not actually sanctioned, the ‘honeyeombing of the departmental! ‘bureaus with enemies of the Republic and of all organized government, but steadfast friends of the “new free- dom,” which seems to be a Woodro- |vian euphemism for communism and free love. MR. PALMER STEPS TO THE FRONT | We thought so! South Dakota ‘Democrats will name a solid delega- ‘tion for Attorney General Palmer's Presidential boom. No wonder he stages so many grand-stand scenes. No better man could be nominated by the Democrats, so far as the Re- publieans are concerned. His consis- tent record of inability, inactivity and procrastination will kill him from the start. A Presidential aspirant can’t carry water on both shoulders. In ‘these days a mam is cither against or for the profiteers; he is either against lor for the “Reds” and he is either for or against law, order and justice. In thé same dispatch that tells of the South Dakota Democratic activities it is stated that Senator Poindexter will appear there in person at the Republi- can convention. Poindexter has set the pace. He has mamed his plat- form and the country knows where he stands. His method of announcement Was unusual. His follow-upj methods arg unusual but these are unusual times. ‘The Democrats have failed to discover this fact, up to date. MISS MARY WHITE OVINGTON Sends a “Hot” Letter and Challenges the Resolution of the Prejudiced South Carolina’ American ‘Leatea: New York City.—The N. A. A.C. P., through its chairman, Mary White Ovington, (white), has issued a state- ment challenging ‘a. resolution of the American Legion of South Carolina which stated that the Association's activities would tend to cause fric- tion between the races.

(OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers a The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C.

For those who enjoy a good glass of beer or stronger drink, there is one chance left for them to gratify their desive. ‘The only way that this may be accomplished is to make it your- self. Home brewing and the making ci strong liquors without the use of stills or machinery is as yet in its in- fancy in this country. In Europe, however, it is a daily task of the av- erage housckeeper. ‘To meet the de- mand for a reliable book of instrue- tions and receipts for the Home Mak- ing of Liquor, a Master Brewer has revealed his priceless formulas and trade secrets in a new, copyrighted hook "SECRETS OF HOME BREW- ING.” This wenderful book contains OVER 200 of the choicest professional recipies and full instructions, for the making in your own kitchen of beer, wines, gin and whiskey.

The remains of Mrs. Lucy Trimble were taken to Hillsboro for burial. Funeral, last Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Anna Jones, a former resident of this city, now in business in Youngstown, was in the city the first of the week. Mrs. Fannie Sampson Norwood, Wilmington, N. C., is the guest of Dr. and Mrs. E. A. Dale. She may move her family. Mrs. Rena Belvin, 2479 E. 37th St. who was called home to Atlanta, Ga. to attend a sister's funeral, will return to the city soon. Some members are trying to stir up "a hornet's nest" in Shiloh Baptist church while others are leaving the church and joining others. Dr. J. K Nickens lectured to a large audience at M. Pere Baptist church, Monday evening, and Mrs. Nickens made an interesting address. After Jan. 1, 1920, The Gazette will be two dollars a year! If you owe for your subscription be sure to pay before the first of the new year and save fifty cents! Dr. and Mrs. Arthur Scott spent Thanksgiving with Mrs. Scott's relatives in Erie, Pa.

Donot wait for the collector to call on you, but do as many have done the past week—either call, send or mail your overdue subscription money. It is so much pleasanter. The Dunbar Literary society drew a large crowd, Tuesday evening. Interesting debates are being held. Next meeting, Tuesday evening, at Shiloh Baptist church. The minister's Conference, representing twenty local Baptist churches, held an interesting meeting, Monday evening, at Zion Hill Baptist church, cor. E. 55th St. and Thackery Ave. Ralph Wilgera Tyler has returned from Columbus and resumed his position with the Ambrosia Toilet Co. It is said. The political job at the state capital did not materialize, it seems. What was the ruling of the Court of Appeals in the Young vs Pratt case under Hen. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Right's law and who has the case against the Hippodrome, under the same law? Arkansas race riots were caused by white planters who keep "Negroes in veritable peonage," Walter F. White assist. sec. of the N. A. A. C. Pa, said in an address at E. Tech. high school Monday night. A year's subscription to "The Old Reliable" Gazette makes a most acceptable Xmas gift. Many of our readers, each year, take advantage of this opportunity and find the present greatly appreciated in every instance. Miss Addie W. Pickle, formerly of Greenville, Miss, one of our local public school teachers, and Luther W. Nickle, W. Nickle's Thanksgiving day, at Mrs. Taylor's, 2188 E. 73rd St. Sinceest congratulations and best wishes, Mr. and Mrs. Nickle. Warren J. Cossey, who had been in Pasadena, Calif., in charge of Charles M. Schwab's private car, for a month, arrived in the city to spend Thanksgiving with his wife. Mr. Schwab thinks a great deal of "Warry." Nickles and Fitzgerald's new quarters at the corner of E. 34th St. and Central Ave. are neat, cozy and ample. Go in and see them! Both men are well and favorably known and sort their business under the most encouraging circumstances. Their conduct of the St. John funeral recently, is still being praised by all who attended it. The Coleridge Taylor Choral Society has reorganized. Mme. Rachel Walker Turner is the musical directress and T. J. Hicks, assistant. The other officers elected are: Milton Gibson, pres.; John Murrell, vice; Henry Dhent, sec.; Phillip White, cor. sec.; William Anderson, treas. The society meets every Wednesday evening at the Community Center. Memorial exercises were held at Shiloh Baptist church, recently, for Sergt. Leroy Alexander, who died in Royal Herbert Hospital, London, England, in October, 1918, from pneumonia. He served as sergeant of mechanics in the Motor Transportation Reserves, having enlisted in Chicago in J. S. HALL'S 3121 Central Ave. J. E.

Britt, of Louisville, Ky., sang at Zion Hill Baptist church, Sunday, and was given ($25) the largest collection (donation) for one song he ever received and he has sung in many parts of this country and the Old World. Prof. Britt, who will sing at Triedstone Baptist church, E. 38th and Scovill Ave., Sunday, is really a remarkable evangelistic or gospel singer. The Harmony Trio, composed of Mrs. Cleage, Mrs. Olive Wells Ball and Miss Gladys Wells had a narrow escape from fatal injuries, recently, when the auto in which they were being driven from Alliance to Cleveland ran down an embankment, they were badly shaken up. The trio had just closed a successful season in the east under the direction of the Coit Lyevum bureau. After a fifteen minutes talk by Langston Hughes on "The Negro Problem in America" in the Civics senior class at Central High School, recently, the scholars sat in amazement at the atrocities mentioned by him and so forceful were the facts presented that a member of the class asserted that he could not understand how such mistreatment in this country of the Afro-American who fought in the recent world war for the cause of democracy could be possible. Miss Helen Wright, one of our local public school-teachers, continues very ill with pneumonia. The community was shocked at the news of the death of her greatgrandmother, "Mother" Palmer, of the pioneer residents of Cleveland. She was the mother of Mrs. William Hayes and M. Andrew Braggs, of N. Yakima, Wash, and former resident of this city, and grandmother of Mr. Walter Wright, Jr., Chicago, formerly of this city. Louia V. Jones, the popular and gifted young violinist, a graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music of Boston, will give a recital in Epworth Memorial church, Prospect Ave. and E. 55th St., Monday evening, Dec. 29. As this is Mr. Jones' first local concert appearance since his graduation, Cleveland's music loveable public should turn cut en masse to hear their native son. It will be THE musical affair of the holiday season. The Hiawatha club elected the following officers at the recent meeting at Mrs. L. S. Jones', E. 101st St. Mrs. Carrie Crawford, pres. (re-elected for the ninth consecutive term); Mrs. W. H. Thurston, sec. and parliamentarian; Mrs. Benj. Shook, ms. Mrs. Carrie B. Benj. pres.; Mrs. Walter B. Wright, chairman of program committee; Mrs. Lucy Douglass and Mrs. Fred Scott, chapleas. Quotations on "Thanksgiving" were thoroughly enjoyed. The club met, last week, Monday afternoon, at Mrs. Wm. McIntyre. Large congregations greeted the new pastor at St. James A. M. E. church, again Sunday. The members are greatly pleased with him, thus far, and feel that he is capable of continuing the excellent work of his splendid predecessor, the Rev. O. W. Childers, who was sent to Dayton. The "Tom Thumb" wedding at the church was a success. The Boy Schoenfeld every Monday in the church, J. W. Holland is so master. Rev. Childers had grown to be the great A. M. E. Church's leading pastor in this city. Much is being said anent Col. Charles Young's advice to our people to join forces with the good people of this country to route every vestige of radicalism that threatens the safety of this country." He does not mean that our people are to lessen any legitimate efforts we are making to secure all of our rights and privileges as citizens, but is directing his attack Bolshevists at the W. and the like. Designing whites at Nerogs are very busy, these days, trying to create an opposite impression. Mrs. John Newell, president of the board of directors of the Women's Protective Association, wrote Attorney Harry E. Davis, under date, Nov. 24, '19, in reply to a letter from him, that the board had abandoned the idea of a "jim-crow" delinquent home for our girls. Splendid work, Harry! Keep it up by seeing that the local delinquent girl's homes are open and all others in the community girls common with all others in the community are a real pleasure for The Gazette to give Mr. Davis full credit for this very prompt and meritorious action. That "Hyde Park." Chicago, association, the outgrowth of the establishment of that city's "jim crow" Y. M. C. A., last week circulated posters notifying our people of that and the Kenwood districts, Chicago, to move! Meantime, the association's efforts to establish "jim crow" schools in that city have not been lessened. The "jim crow" Y. M. C. A. is certainly a most pernicious harmful bit of segregation for our people where-ever it is established in this section of the country. Cleveland's "jim crow" Neal, the race here will please "take notice." Major W. T. Anderson, retired U. S. Army chaplain, landed in The Gazette office, the first of the week, very much perturbed over the statement in a local publication that Col. Charles Young, in his recent speech in this city, "rapped the American Legion" THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, DECEMBER 18, 1919 ette and "admonished the race to burst it asunder." The Major characterized the statement as a lie cut out of whole cloth and insists that the Colonel said nothing that could even be twisted into such a statement. The fact that Col. Young lives at Wilberforce may explain this dirty and characteristic attack upon him. Anything from that little college town is apparently like "The Old Reliable" Gazette to some people, these days. Don't get excited again, Major, over anything it says as it won't bother you much longer. ACHE QU You'll sc Put it "The Cleveland police force needs more men and needs them at once," declared Chief Frank W. Smith, Monday, in issuing an appeal to the public to aid in increasing the number of recruits. It is true that the pay for the first year, $1,500, is not high, but at the end of the first year it amounts to $1,800, and after three years' service the policeman is entitled to take examinations that lead to higher rank and higher pay. The long hours in the department have been abolished. The job is now one of an eight-hour day, giving plenty of time for recreation. After twenty-five years' service the policeman can retire on a pension ranging from $65 to $125 a month. If he should die in the meantime there is a $5,000 lump sum pension for his widow, to take a lifelong pension for her other pensions for his children until they reach the age of 16. There are very few positions in other lines of work that do as well by a man. I would direct attention of members of the American Legion to the openings on the force for returned soldiers. They are the kind of men we would like to have. The medical examination is not as strict as that of the army." Our soldier boys and others should take advantage of this opening. STOP THROWING AWAY MONEY! In an able address, delivered in this city, Monday, U. S. Senator Warren G. Harding said, among other things, anent what he called the "spendthrift" attitude of the present day: "America will never get its hat on straight while its intoxicated Indians of citizens are spending in the way they are. A world, compensated as it is today, is living without thought of compensation is matched by a sweeping tide of expenditure. This country will come to its senses only when it feels the pinch." To no class of people in this country is the foregoing more truly applicable than to ours. Our people, too many of them, making more money than they ever before in their lives dreamed of making, have gone "stark crazy," spending with an abandon that characterizes the "drunken sailor" only. Too few are saving a dollar for the future—that future which is bound to come and is but a few years away at best—when they will need, and sorely, too, as they have many, many times prior to the past few years, what they are literally throwing away, these days. Our leaders, especially our newspapers and ministers, should be warning them just as often as the opportunity affords. Senator Harding, in calling attention to the matter, is performing a service the American people will some day thank him for. We do so now—for our people. CONTEMTIRLE The following, from the "sport page" of the Cleveland Daily News, was evidently written by some southern "cracker" reporter who has the same regard for the truth, Jack Johnson and our people: "Johnson, his title and his fortune swept away, a fugitive from justice and an outlaw from his native land, is today pittilactious. His rise from the Calgentine堡 was heavy-weight championship served him of what little sense originally was contained in his bullet head, and he ran amuck in the brief time that the linelight beamed upon him. However, wiser heads than his have been turned by success, and he is, perhaps, deserving of pity rather than censure. The victim of his own foolishness, he hovers about beyond the pale, living as best he can on the lean pickings to be derived from his sparring exhibitions in the built rings, second-class music balls in the strife torn republic that stretches southward from the Rio Grande. "Instead they (Johnson and Carl Morris) will answer the changing call of the gong in an isolated border town before a gathering of greesers and ventureurs. Americans who have been the gongmer to do than to cross into an arid land to meet the meeting of a half-forgotten outcast and a blundering fourth-rater." According to persons who know, Jack Johnson is not "broke" but has plenty of money and has been making a very liberal amount of it in Spain and Mexico—ever since his banishment from this country for "making a fool of himself" as many champion pugilists did before him but got away with because they were "white." Johnson's "crime," in the eyes of prejudiced America was not simply his consorting with white women. That was objectionable to them, it is true, but was only used to "get him." His use of crimes" was the whipping of Jeffries, the champion "white" whom they thought invincible. The real animus of the "cracker" reporter's venomous attack upon Johnson and the race is made clearer in the last sentence. Carl Morris who is matched with Jack is "white." See!! DARE TO DO YOUR DUTY! "Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it."—Abraham Lincoln. "THINK AS A MAN" Class is as fatal in intelligence as anywhere else. Watch yourself, that you do not slump into looking at all questions from the point of view of your class. Think as a human being, not as a Republican, or Democrat, or Laborer, or Capitalist, or Protestant, or Catholic, or Jew, or an Easterner, or a Westerner, or a Negro, or an American.

Absolutely No Truth In The Statement Says Dr. Wm. A. Byrd and the Entire Race Press—Afro-Americans, Most Loyal Citizens, Demand Their Rights and Privileges and Just Treatment! The Associated Press on Sabbath, Nov. 23rd., published the report of the Department of Justice, rather the de- partment. of injustice and incompe- tence, on “Bolshevism and Redist®” in America. The astounding statements respecting colored people and colored news-organs cannot go unchallenged. ‘That there is ground to believe Ne- groes are joining the ranks of “reds” to overthrow the government, we doubt very much and cali upon the Department to give facts and not prej- udiced and sectional conclusions that are reached and published to mitigate the shameful miscarriage of justice as practiced by that Department, “That race journals have published the fact that Negroes have found themselves and will not take what they once took, is not “redism” but real American- iam which hates injustice and lieing. ‘Negroes should not take any more op- ‘pression than whites take. A democ- ) ; | re cor racy guarantees to every citizen the same and equal rights before the law and in the protection of rights, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If, under a democracy. colored people are satisfied and willingly take un- democratic treatment, they are not worthy citizens and constitute a men- ace to the liberty of every other American citizen, “For what oppres- sion will do to one race for its ad- vantage it will do to all when their selfish advantage has power and force ‘enough to repeat it. This race con- ‘sciousness of hating oppression and fighting it is one of the most hopeful signs of democracy coming to its own in America, Real Americans “tote square” with every race. Only the cowards and curs resort to oppression and prejudice to injure a fellow Amer- fean' of any color. Unfortunate for the present Administration, it is and has unjust toward colored peo- ple. During the war when it was feared that the desertion of the Ne- gro might prove advantageous to the foe and disastrous to America, the De- partment hired, men to go North, uth, East and West among Negroes preaching “our country, we are one people, white and black,” but soon as the armistice was signed the Depart- ment did its worst to make the col- ored man feel that this is a “white man's country” and that colored men will, get what they received before the War, ‘The race riots were part of ‘a well laid plan to make the black boy, who went throurh hell in France, cow before the brutal mob spirit of America. In this the enemies of do- mocracy failed and for one time felt the sting of conscious manhood in a once long-suffering and timid race, but a race that is not afraid to die when it is honorable to die nov shzink from fighting when liberty is at stake. We agree with the Department that colored people are hostile toward the south. Why should they not be? Has not the south out-Turkeyed Turkey in savagery? Is not the South, im and ‘out of Congress, implacable foes to the rights and liberties of colored peo- ple, everywhere? Is. it not a, fact law and government have failed in the south and only anarchy, force and mob, violence rule supreme? Did not the south in France and in Amer- ea seek to have the world recognize the colored race as inferiors and by every conceivable device of treachery and foul play seck to discredit col- gred people at home and abread?, If if is Bolshevism to hate the south, the race pleads guilty to the charge. " We! do not think it so. but we fecl it is our bounden duty to relentlessly op- pose the south until it is licked again, not by the sword but iy an aroused public opinion against its law!essness and autocracy. ‘The south like Mex- feo, must be taught 2 lesson of law and order. The sooner the lesson i given and heeded, the better it will for all concerned, If this present ‘Administration had been American in its policies and just in the execution of its laws, no class of American cit- izens would have honored the Admin- istration more than the colored, Be-| cause the Administration was domin- ated by the southern unjust policies is the reason that we fecl that the, time cannot come to soon to rid the country of a menace to civilizations Let it be understood now and forevegh that coloréd people are the most [\q) ‘al-citixens that America can boast oA We are willing to give our lives and ail for this government but we frank- ly admit that we would not give a snecxe for the interest of the present dministration. ev.) Wm. A. Byrd. WAR RISK INSURANCE An Appeal To Our Soldiers To Save It That Should Be Headed. If all the 400,000 Afro-Americans who were in the army and navy dur- ing the World War do not keep up their War Rick Insurance it will not be the fault of our Welfare organi- zations throughout the country, Spurred by the fact that only about five p. e. of our solider boys are re- taining their insurance now that thoy are out of the service, many of our leading organizations have started re- newed activity to save for them the War Risk Insurance upon which they paid premiums while in the service. The average face value of each policy carried was $8,740. Although a large per cent of this insur- ance has been allowed to lapse, it has not been lost’ to the men under the very liberal reinstate- ment privileges granted veterans of the World War. Our organizations not only are offering the men infor- mation as to their insurance rights and privileges, under the provisions ‘of the War Risk Insurance Act, but are voluntarily aiding them in again placing their insurance in good stand- ing. ‘These organizations are ren- dering valuable work in co-operating with our representative who is look- ing wfter the interests of our men in the bureau of War Risk Insurance. ‘The government does not charge a higher premium beeause of dangerous employment, as is customary with commercial life insurance companies. No matter how hazardous the job a x dq a ye ao % oe Ee es : oS as Lee : oe ee oO Pe oe cant: goes Ree ek Pe ONS fee A ep Boi eT a Guna man holds, he can be protected under the terms of government insarance. A disability clause is contained in government policies for which there is no extra charge. If totally and permanently disabled for any cause, the insured may get the benefits and vo longer be required to pay prem- jums upon his insurance. “The gov- ernment is in the life insurance busi- ness only for the benefit and protee- tion of those who safeguarded the Na- tion in its greatest crisis,” says Lieut. J. Williams Clifford, in charge of out men’s interests in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. “The Country's ob- ligation to its fighting men did not end with the war, or when the men left the service. In discharge of an everlasting obligation Unele Sam is offering his service men permanent in- surance protection by extending to them the privilege of keeping their Government Insurance. Such an_in- surance policy is an asset with which to begin any career” Every dollar of the insurance car- vied by our men can be reinstated by oaying only two months’ premiums. Only the premiums for the month of grace following discharge, whes the insured was fully protected, and for the month in which the reinstatement takes place are reauired in order to again be fully protected. Our boys should not forget the fact that rein- statement must be made within 18 months after discharge. | Premiums should be paid by check, draft or men- ey-order, payable to the Treasurer of the United States. and sent to the Premium Receipt Section, Bureau of War Risk Incurence, Washington, D. 7 Editor Gazette, Dear Sir: In order thut this office may render even great- er vetvice to the discharged colored nldiers and sailors, their wives, chil- dren, dependents, ‘beneficiaries and friends, 1 have the honor to request that you be gracious encugh to pub- Tish a short notice of four or five Hnes on the editorial page of your paper UMFing these persons to write fo, Lieut.

China has no fixed number ot hours for work, except fn the case of certain individual factories and firms, With some of the latter the iwelye-hour day prevails, while with a smaller proportion the eight-hour day has become the custom. In the shop, however, the hours are just as long as the proprietor wants to keep open. The eppren- tices, youths who in America would still be in the grammar schools or the firet year or two in high school, are the ones Who suffer most from this, Their work time varies any- where from twelve to nineteep hours. Most of the shops keep open ‘at least sixteen hours. It fs estimated that in shops of the foreign settlement alone in Shanghai there are more than 20,000 boy apprentices. Their pay is ‘small, or nothing at all, though they do receive rice and’ lodging where they work. ‘Very few of the boys, aside from those employed in Christian estab- lishments, have any chance for study or play. They are bound out by their parents or guardians to the shopkeepers and tradesmen to learn a trade, In much the same way that Engiish boys used to be apprenticed ‘They are almost as completely at the mer of the man to whom they are apprenticed as though he had bought them as slaves, as still hap- pens in China, and have no redress from crue} and inhuman treatment Little so far has been done for the apprentice boys by the mission workers in China, because the boys, having been apprenticed their par- ents or guardians cannot easily be released, But much is being done for the children generally of China and this will eventually react upon the apprentice boys and make thet» situation more tolerable.

That, surely, was bad enough, but when he was denied the right to at- tend the wedding of his own daughter he thought it time for the worm to turn, especially as his daughter, deeply religious, said: “Tf the church smites father itis my duty to shun him, even if it means a den‘al of our relationship.” ‘The Mennonites are opposed to all the world’s vanities—such as wearing suspenders. ‘They despise war and love peace, Ginetich is. in hearty accord with all the ideats of his church, except with respect. to suspenders.
