Interesting Comment From a White Friend of the Race—Wilson's "Bogue of Nations" Portland, Ore., April 5, [20] Editor Gazette Ship Sir: Enclosed please find precedents to extend my subscription to your splendid paper. I was so glad to see you opposed to that abominable "League of Notions." It was about the worst piece of botched up nonsense imaginable and to my mind, treasonable, since it surrendered American sovereignty to hostile foreign control. Some of your editors were genial. And now our dear administrator is in the country, interested in the island. Some of those people better go live in the country they love so. We would be well-rid of them. Andrew Jackson would—disown the present day Democracy. He was an American, not a son of "the mother country." God save us! I hope Warren G. Harding is nominated for president next time. I am sure the nomination means election and I hope he makes Senator Hiram Johnson, of California, his secretary of state. I believe he has an interest in the government, from President, Mr. Johnson would be too arbitrary. It takes diplomacy to keep at peace with Congress. And really a man has enough to do without trying to be the legislative and judicial branches of the government as well as the executive. "Teddy" and the present incumbent both tried that and pretty much did. He's not a big more. The fathers knew what they were doing when they formed our government. It is the best on earth! Not perfect, for human agents must be its instruments and they are fault, but as good as human works can make it and capable of growing better. Our ideals are the best and we have to work with good wishes, sincerely yours. (MRS) PATRICIA ROBILSON. ALLEGED JOHNSON INTERVIEW MEXICALL, MEXICO.—Juck Johnson is here, supposedly en route to Chicago. He says: "I am under contract with a big American fight syndicate which calls for three fights, the final one for the championship. I am going to come back, not only in the fight world, but with the U. S. government. After my first fight, which will be with Fred Fulton, I am going to return to Chicago, give myself up and fight for proof of my innocence in the new trial that was granted me when I acted foolish and ran away." Jack refused to name the men forming the syndicate which has him sigmed, but it has gold and plenty of it to further his plans, he says. "I was asked to come to Tia Juana by this syndicate. Its plans are already pretty well along and I believe negotiations already have been opened with Fulton to fight me at Tia Juana for an early date. I sept a man to San Francisco and Los Angeles today to gather up a sparring partner and a training staff. I will go to Tia Juana Sunday or Monday, to begin training. No man on earth can beat me when I want to fight. Willard was never a fighter. He was just a big jolly fellow. Why, I had a dickens of a time flopping in that fight. I was supposed to go in the tenth, but I could not find a chance, and when I did flop on that hot canvus in my backyard I could hardly stay down long enough to take the contest. Carpentier? I've worked the French hoy lots of times. The first American fighter that meets him will beat him sure. It's foolish, it seems to me; to tout him as a contender for the championship and to tote him over here from France to meet Dempsey. Why, every American fighter that ever went to France whipped Carpentier soon as they met. If the Frenchman ever meets anybody before he does-Dempsey, he'll never meet that fellow, because Carpentier won't be a drawing card any more. He's fairly clever, yes. Just fair. He can hit a little." W. H. SENATOR WARREN G. HARDING TO THE COLORED VOTERS OF OHIO: There is a movement to call us, as a unit, in Ohio. It is not a plot among ourselves, but it is being carefully concocted by a combination of salaried white politicians, aided and abetted by Ohio Democratic newspapers. There has never been a traitor among American Negroes. This fact has been gloriously demonstrated in every war. We have proven loyal to our white friends and loyal to ourselves. We are not, for barter, for sale or for trade, and we again will prove our loyalty to those who time after time have proven our Friends. Senator Harding, against whom the conspirators seek to array colored voters, has always been the friend of the Negro and in his public life has always voted in favor of legislation for the uplift of our grace. The truth is, an attempt is being made and to staint our interests to use the colored voters against the true choice of Ohio Republicans, a man who has recognized us; and in the interest of those who have not recognized us. In this connection it will be well to consider the following important points: The propaganda to take our support from Senator Harding is from the same source that brought "The Birth of the Nation" into Ohio. "Darkwater," the latest book of the well-known author, Dr. W. E. B. DuBray, concerning the service of our boys in the great World War, contains the following very interesting and pertinent writings: "General Wood was early approached and asked to admit suitable (colored) candidates to Plattshurg. He refused!" That is the candidate we are asked to support in preference to the great Senator from Ohio, who has insisted upon the time, the greatest service any man can render his country at this hour. Senate Bill No. 2792, drafted and introduced at the instance of the General Staff of the Army, provides, at an estimated cost to the tax payers of the country of $550,000,000 a year, that every male citizen of the United States between the ages of 18 and 22 years shall be induced diligently to pay taxes to the United States for the purpose of military training for a period of four to six months. When the training-provided for is completed they are to be transferred to a reserve army for a period of five years, subject to immediate call at any time and must be called at least twice during the five years' period for active field training for not less than fifteen days each. During all this period the boys are required to make sure they are to the greatest staff where they are and what they are doing. Secretary of War Baker is strongly for this scheme. General Leonard Wood (the man certain persons are trying to tell our race is such a friend of the Negro, although he wouldn't allow colored officers at the Plattsburg Officers' Training School) came from his headquarters at Chicago and appeared in September 10, 1919, to urge universal military training in support of this bill, which has begun his hobby for years and SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS which is one of the principal planks of his platform in his campaign for president. What are we to expect from General Wood, if he is elected President of the United States and his military program is adopted? Your attention is called to another significant fact in connection with the support some of our men are giving to an outside candidate, which should be sufficient evidence that the movement is political and mercenary and not for the good of our nation. We are responsible for Mr. Fried D. Patterson's withdrawal as a candidate for delegate-at-large. Mr. Patterson says so in a letter given herewith which is very interesting reading. The effort to link him with the Wood candidacy, when by so doing it was injuring the Harding candidacy, was the prime reason for Mr. Patterson's withdrawal. There are several of our race papers in Ohio whose influence has been purchased with Wood money. Several of these publications offered their columns to the Harding headquarters before selling their space to the opposition. Their propositions were refused. Patterson wired the following letter to Hardy W. Pyler, part publisher of a waking paper which was advocating the election of Patterson: "Announce, please, my intention to withdraw from the candidacy for election as delegate-at-large on the Republican ticket. I do so, Ralph, with very sincere regrets; and for these reasons and these reasons only: "First—I am a Harding man. I so announced in the beginning, and I am still of Harding allegiance. It doesn't make a particle of difference whoever else may desert him, I did and do feel that the Harding management should have made provision for the proper recognition of the Negro vote of the State. As a protest against the lack of such provision I entered the contest, under the impression that was made a material and interested portion of the Negro electorate of the State. After having filed under the above impression my subsequent investigation developed the fact that you and your paper were, perhaps, my lone sponsors. "Mr. Beaty's refusal to accept the alternate-at-large was nullled by Mr. Cottrill's acceptance of it, and such action on the part of a man of Mr. Cottrill's ability and standing I consider a very strong indication that a no inconsiderable number of Negro voters consider the alternate-at-large satisfactory and not claim a delegated as well as all alternate-at-large. "My candidacy you have championed with zeal and courage but I can not follow you to Wood. Already a number of protests against that line of conduct has reached me, under the impression that I had endorsed Wood. Quite to the contrary. The Wood candidacy threatens the defeat of Harding, who, in my judgment, is at heart the choice of 90 per cent of the Negro voters of the state. My own candidacy is made by people who are the man of our position. "The position is untenable, the whole thing undesirable, especially considering the sacrifices this firm was willing to incur in event that it had been possible to pursue the matter along direct, clean-cut lines. I am depending on you. Tyler, to make this thing plain, as you know it to be, and under IN UNION IS STRONG COPY FIVE CENTS OYS! no circumstances submit my efforts to the despicable charge of self-in- rest. It is time, for us to do a little thinking for ourselves. We have always been solid for Senator Harding and he has not changed since the last time we supported him. Are we to be led astray by certain persons who have been paid liberally for their services by a rival candidate to our own? Why is it that some of these persons went to Harding headquarters and offered to support the Ohio candidate—for so much money per week? Is our support to be bartered in dollars and cents by them? Mr. Cooper Procter, head of the Procter-Gamble Company of Cincinnati, and who is manager of the campaign for Leonard Wood, has always been our enemy. Not a colored man is employed in his great factory at Cincinnati, nor can we procure employment therein. The malicious charge that Senator Harding "flirted" with the "illywhites" in Texas has been investigated, and has been found to be a faeschool in every respect and absolutely without fact. When a member of the Ohio Senate, Senator Harding was always ready to aid such measures as were for the best interests of our race, and his support was as cordial as it was willing. Senator Harding was always a stanch friend of Senator Forsaker, and our race has never had two greater champions in Ohio. The attempt to turn our vote against Senator Harding on account of the Hon. Harry M. Daugherty, one of the candidates for delegate-at-large in the interest of Senator Harding's candidacy, will fail. Our voters will remember that Mr. Daugherty is the only lawyer in Ohio who has been hanged in effigy because years ago he defended an officer of the law who relied on him in the pursuit to take the life of a member of the race. The sentiment which these publications are attempting to lead their readers to believe, is against Senator Harding and is in the large part purchased with real money. The Senator is the only avowed candidate for the Republican nomination for President whom we know, as a result of assistance always freely and willingly rendered, is a real friend of the race. W. S.

Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Gazette, Cleveland, O. In answer to your inquiry, as to whether or not I was induced to withdraw from my candidacy for delegate-at-large for Harding by the Harding headquarters, I reply emphatically that such was not the case. I wrote you recently my full reasons for withdrawing and have nothing further to add. I was a Harding man to begin with and am more strongly for him today than at any previous time during his candidacy, in view of the fact that I consider him a strong, sincerer, candidate to best man in the Presidential field today altogether worthy of the great state of Ohio. No man of the Harding management asked or even suggested that I withdraw. In connection with this wire, kindly republish my statement announcing my withdrawal. F. D. PATTerson. -Adv. Lynching Denounced, LEXINGTON, Ky.—The recent lynching of Grant Smith was roundly denounced by Gov. Morrow here, on April 1. The lynching question has become a political issue. The governor pledged rigid enforcement of the new anti-lynching law becoming effective in June which permits summary removal of officials who surrender prisoners to mobs. Mrs. Jack Johnson in U. S. LOS ANGELES, Cal.—Mrs. Jack Johnson, (white), wife of the former heavyweight champion, who recently arrived at Mexicali, Lower California, from Mexico City, has arrived at Calexico, Cal.

SATURDAY, APRIL 10, 1920 Some people for reasons obvious are apparently much more perturbed over the withdrawal of Fred D. Patterson than he is. Why? The Governor of Michigan permitted the extradition of Grant Smith the Afro-American, lynched recently in Kentucky. This ought to be a warning that every other northern Governor will heed. We fail to see a single real friend of the race among the state leaders of the Wood campaign. Perhaps we have overlooked some. Hope not. Surely we have made no mistake in the case of Col. Procter, the big Ohio Wood leader. Do not be misled. Vote for Harding and Daugherty! When the race needed friends they responded promptly. The only way to retain friends is to show proper appreciation when you can. We may need them again. Who knows? PEACE RESOLUTION WILL PASS It is understood that Mr. Wilson intends to do nothing further with the peace treaty until Congress has acted on the proposed peace resolution. There appears to be little doubt that such a resolution will be speedily passed and put up to the President for his approval or rejection. If he cares to deny what everyone knows to be a fact, then he will veto the declaration that the war is at an end, but if he has a vestige of sound judgment remaining he will sign it and add the touch of formality to a condition that everybody has recognized for months. DEMOCRATS DEFEATED TREATY Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia who has announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for President, states that he is "unalterably opposed" to his party committing itself to a national campaign on the proposition that the League of Nations should have been ratified by the Senate without any change. Unfortunately for the Senator, and for any other Democratic aspirants for office the party will be forced to meet the issue. It is going to be put up to them by the Republicans in a way that cannot be dodged. Democratic votes defeated the treaty on two occasions after reservations had been made to it that preserved Americanism. They not only defeated the treaty after all the reservations had been finally applied to it, but they voted against Americanizing reservation individually when it was passed upon by the Senate. Such a record cannot be ignored by the party in the coming campaign. Republican attacks upon it must be met, either by way of apology or attempted justification. NAVY INEFFICIENCY PROVEN Every naval officer thus far called before the Senate Naval Committee investigating the situation in the Department in the early days of the war has testified to the complete unpreparedness of the Navy to meet a formidable foe. No plan was at hand for offensive operations, the ships lacked ammunition, their personnel was entirely inadequate and Secretary Daniels refused to make a move to improve matters. Admirals and captains who held high positions in the offices of the Department at Washington when the war began have all testified to substantially the same effect. They all say that it was only extreme necessity that induced the Secretary to make the most elementary provisions for the safety of the fleet and its use in helping the allied cause. Through it all great care was taken by Mr. Daniels that not a word of the true state of affairs should be allowed to reach the public. It is a great relief when we remember that this political incompetent will be inflicted on our navy only eleven months longer. A NEW ANTI-LYNCHING LAW. Kentucky's new anti-lynching law makes the penalty for lynching, death or life imprisonment, and for attempted lynching confinement in the penitentiary for not less than two years nor more than twenty years. Unlike our Ohio law it does not provide for damages in case of lynching, serious injury or simply injury, but ought to prove valuable as a deterrent anyhow. Then, too, there are other though minor differences in the two laws. However it shows progress, for Kentucky is a southern state even if "on the border." Our people of that state, led by that Ohio "boy" and former member of The Gazette staff, Dr. E. E. Underwood (not the N. A. A. C. P.), deserve great credit for the work they have done to help secure the introduction and passage of the bill that will become Kentucky's "mob violence" law in June. Of course that grand governor, E. P. Morrow, was the big leader in it all. More power to him and his kind! There is pending in that state a bill to submit to the electors a constitutional amendment providing for the automatic removal of any peace officer who permitted a mob to lynch a prisoner. Ohio also has a law very similar to this introduced by the Hon. Henry T. Eubanks (deceased), a member of the Ohio Assembly, some years ago, from Cleveland. HARDING AND DAUGHERTY Among the things Senator Warren G. Harding said to the editor of The Gazette at our conference in Hotel Statler, this city last week Tuesday night, was the following: "The attempt to array the Colored voters of Ohio against the Hon. Harry M. Daugherty, manager of my campaign and a candidate for delegate at large, is stamped with hypocrisy. If the opposition thought it vital to select a Colored Republican for delegate at large, there were four opportunities while the exigencies of the situation left us none, yet Colonel Procter and his associates left two blanks on their ticket for delegates at large rather than prove the sincerity of their solicitude for the Colored Republicans. "More, Mr. Daugherty is the only lawyer in Ohio who was ever hung in effigy in 1861, and the Gauley Guard to who had hated a mob guard to execute a colored citizen who was in the hands of officers of the law. And this fine service will not be forgotten when the conscience of the Republic and of Colored people in particular is crying out against mob violence." We agree with the Senator in all he says in the foregoing and go further by saying that our people waited until the candidates for delegate and alternate delegate at large (one a member of the race) had been selected by the Harding management before asking for a candidate for delegate at large. If they asked anything from the Wood management, they have received nothing. And there is no good reason why some recognition should not have been given them. Col. Procter, Wood manager, could not "see" the Colored vote in Ohio any more than he can "see" our workman when he applies for a place in his great industrial plant at Cincinnati. Of course, Gen. Leonard Wood could not "see" them in this matter, either when he found it impossible to "see" any of our boys who made application for admission to the Plattstamburg N. Y., Officers' Training School which he established and over which he presided at the time of this country's entrance upon the World War. If elected President what assurance have we that he would not continue to follow the same (color) line of action, if not freely and willingly, then at the behest of the War Department just as President Wilson and every other President before him has? Warren G. Harding is a very different sort of man. He is bigger and broader and showed it away back in 1900 when he and the editor of this paper were members of the Ohio Assembly. Repeatedly the writer, a member of the lower house of the Assembly, go to State Senator Warren G. Harding and ask his vote and assistance for measures of direct interest and importance to our people of this state. Never did he make it necessary for us to ask him a second time but always readily and willingly acceded to our requests. This was a demonstration of real and practical friendship that our voters of this (and other states) cannot afford to overlook at this time, and they are not going to do so, either. The story that the Senator went to Texas a few weeks ago to recognize, strengthen or do anything else for "illy-white" Republicans of that state and the South is a malicious political lie spread broadcast for a purpose clear to all. It is simply an exposition of what is commonly referred to as "dirty politics." Senator Harding is entitled to the vote of every honest and honorable Afro-American Republican in the state and we believe he is going to get them on the 27th of this month. This same is true of the Hon. Harry M. Daugherty, candidate for delegate at large. Any one in doubt as to his real friendship for the race has only to write to any Afro-American resident of Mr. Daugherty's home town, Washington C. H., Ohio—and he will be more than satisfied instantiar. Write Justice of the Peace John T. Oatmeal of that little city, one of the very best members of the race in the state, if you are not acquainted with residents of the place. Harding and Daugherty are Ohio-ans, loyal, active Republicans and friends of the race. They do not live in New Hampshire. Be loyal to our friends, have Additional Locals It is said that Secretary John H. Shilady, Assist. Sec. Walter H. White, Editor Wm. E. DuBois, Field Agent James W. Johnson and Organizer Wm. Pickens, officers of the N. A. A. C. P., are paid salaries aggregating $25,000 a year. That is a good deal of money for poor Afro-Americans to pay for the results secured. What do our contemporaries think about it? Last week Friday someone mailed us two bills and a blank sheet of paper in a Gazette stamped envelope. Will the person please send us at once their name and address, so we can properly credit them with the amount? The most unsightly and poorest appearing bath house in the city, we really believe is that Central-Marion Ave. honeily pile of bricks, which was formally opened, Tuesday evening, with exercises designed to "boost" Councilman Tom Fleming. The thing, the speakers claimed, is to cost $100,000 when completed; while the city clerk's office maintains that only $50,000 have been appropriated by the City Council for it. The same city officials also claim that the new bathhouse for poor whites out St. Clair Ave., between E. 60th and 70th streets, is to cost $200,000, when only $100,000 has been appropriated for it. It has TWICE the number of showers, etc that the Central-Marion Ave. affair has and is far superior to the latter in appearance and the respect of the Central Ave. is district and the poor whites St. Clair Ave. have been treated so differently, the latter so much better, is a question Tom Fleming; who sat in the Council and allowed this unfairness to be "put over" without a single word of protest, ought to be made to explain. The Davis administration is responsible for it. Senator Warren G. Harding's visit in the city, Tuesday, especially his several speeches in the evening, have awakened the Ohio spirit and pride in Cleveland as it has not been awakened since the days of McKinley's first campaign for the Presidency. At the largest meeting, in Gray's armory, where nearly three thousand people crowded into a building, crested to accommodate about two thousand, to hear the Senator speak, there was unmistakable evidence of the fast growing interest in his candidacy for the Presidency. The enthusiasm was great and everybody was happy. The Senator's speech was a masterpiece and thoroughly satisfied and delighted the large audience. His frank expressions aunted our people pleased greatly. There is no question as to where the Senator stands on all matters of vital racial interest. At the Senator's request, the editor of The Gazette held a half hour's conference with the Hotel Statler immediately after the meeting in Cleveland, Tuesday night, in J. G. Robinson and another friend (white) were asked into this conference by the editor. We shall have more to say of it in early issues of The Gazette. Suffice it to say at this time that matters of racial interest were discussed and in an entirely satisfactory manner. Our best candidate for the Republican nomination for the Presidency is Senator Warren G. Harding, as we have repeatedly said in recent weeks. Unwillingness to accept aid from the government and ignorance of the fact that compensation is due them is preventing many Cleveland formerservice men wounded in the World War from claiming compensation, according to Col. D. H. Pond, a member of the Red Cross committee. He pointed out, Monday, the urgency of men disabled in service filing claims before the period of crisis, one year from date of discharge, expires. Applications are received by Mrs. Elise Cuggle, Ontario $44. Additional compensation provided by the Sweet bill will give maximum of $60 a month to single men and $125 a month to married men. Red Cross headquarters are at 600 Standard Parts building. A PRIVILEGE It is a privilege to fearlessly stand for the right— Not a sacrifice, even though you go down.

A WORLD REBUILT THIRTY denominations of the Church are uniting in a simultaneous campaign in the week of April 25th-May 2nd. They are uniting because the task before the Church is too great for any one denomination; because there must be no duplication of effort; no waste. These churches know that the world needs many things; but it needs Faith most of all. They know that there can be no final solution of our economic problems that is not a spiritual solution, based on the teachings of Jesus Christ and His Golden Rule. They have had the courage to survey the whole task, and to ask for a budget large enough to sustain (1) the work abroad, (2) the work at home including the church's part in the huge task of Americanization, (3) the colleges and (4) hospitals supported by the Churches, (5) the religious training of the young, and to provide (6) a living wage for the Church's ministers. The budget is large in the aggregate; yet if each person who loves America would increase his contribution by only a few dollars the whole amount would be easily subscribed. We face the task of rebuilding the world. Let the cornerstone be a strong and vital church in every American community; and the measuring rod by which the builders build must be the Golden Rule.
