SOUTH CALLED TO WAR:
Methodist Women Demand Mot
Violence be Blotted Out—Planning
South-Wide Campaign
Authorities, Pulpit, Press and
People Called Upon to
Unite.
Atlanta Ga. A movement to enlist the 25000 organized women of the Southern Methodist church in a determined and systematic campaign for the suppression of lynching was launched here last week. A large group of representative women (white) from their own states, all of them officials of the Woman's Missionary Council, or Conference Social Service Superintendents met at the call of the Race Relations Commission of the Council, spent three days in conference and the commission issued a vigorous address to the public relative to the lynching evading upon the authorities of the several states and countries for its complete suppression and upon the citizens, the public and the press for their united support to this day. The effect of the lower Antitraching bell was used to give point to their utterance. They for their pledged themselves individually and in an official capacity a response to the social service leadership of the organized Methodist women, in a persistent campaign for state laws and for law information. Details of the plan are already being worked out. Their statement follows.
"Where is the definite of the lower antitraching bell, which provided for the federal control of lynching, has thrown the whole responsibility back upon each state for removing this hideous crime there-fore.
The it resolved, that we, the Commission on Race Relations of the Woman's Missionary Council, Methodist Episcopal church South, the conference social service superintendents, and other officers in conference in Atlanta, Dec. 4-6, do draw mind of the authorities or the several states that they make good their claim proving their competency to abolish mob violence and lynching.
That we assume our response is sufficient for the protection of human life and hereby call upon all the people of all the States, upon the pulpit and upon the prairie to join in an insistent and persistent audition against this criminal practice.
That we formulate plans for an organized movement in behalf of domestic state laws and law enforcement."
TINKHAM "SCORES BIG."
Hits the South a "Daisy" in a Letter to President Harding—More Power to Him!—American Negro Academy Meet.
tive Tinkham, of Massachusetts, has made public a letter to President Harding commanding his reference in his message to Congress to "wide-spread disrespect for law as exemplified by defiance of the eight-tenth amendment," and suggesting that all parts of the constitution "be enforced equally and impartially."
With the greatest respect Mr. Tinkham wrote, may I draw your attention to the fact that, whereas the eight-tenth amendment is pursued in the constitution to enforce the protection of the four freedoms of speech, religion, and property, it is not enforced equally and impartially.
Mr. Tinkham has said with frank and with pride that he has made a significant contribution to the development of the Constitution and its implementation.

Time Springfield's Civic Organizations Were "Taking A Hand" To Stop It Another Great Court Victory Thirty two Cases Won Wonderful Women Pickets Great Work of Attorneys Jaymes, Daniels and McCormick.
Special to The Gazette
Springfield 9. With the return by the jury at noon Friday of a verdict of not guilty in the case of Walden Barley, charged with rioting the thirty-one other similar cases and be hanged by Police. The jury after Justice Ackman All had entered into a court of last甘量. The police and jury declarated and adjourned the trial. The other rioting cases were notified according to an agreement that if a conviction was not held on the Barley case, the other cases should be dismissed. With this verdict and the dismissal of the Barley case, all cases tried in police court following the trouble at Walden school, Nov. 7, have been disposed of. In the affidavit against Barley he was charged with rioting onto the running board of an assemblage in which teachers and the principal of the gym class. Fulton school were riding, and with attacking the ompans. The prosecution brought in witnesses to testimony that Barley was the man seen on the running board and that he struck at the occupants. The defense, while admitting that Barley jumped, on the arry denied that it was with any attempt at assault, and that there had been an assembling partner to form a riot. On the jury were three Afro-Americans and nine white men. Attys. Suily Jaymes G. W. Brendels and Thos McCorrunk knocked out Police Prosecutor Justin Altson, in the first round.

Those who attended the meeting of the Civil Rights Protective League, last Friday evening, received another intellectual and oratorial treat. In keeping with the policy of the League in securing the best speakers possible, we were favoured at our last meeting, in hearing as speaker Thomas J. McCormick, the well known Irish attorney of this city. He has been associated with the League's attorney in defending the so-called riot cases in Police Court in which the rendered invaluable service which is all very much appreciated. Attty, Terry W. Daniels, who introduced Mr. McCormick, paid high tributes to his friendliness and fairness. Special mention was made of his reception by Mr. McCormick upon his arrival in the city as a young attorney. Attention was also called to the fact that Mr. McCormick, a member of St. Raphael's Catholic church belonged to the only Christian denomination in the U.S. which made any effort to express the spirit of Christian brotherhood without regard to race or color. Mr. McCormick, began his speech by referring to the trial in the so-called riot cases in which he said the fundamental of government were on trial. Continuing he said that it is the duty of every member of the race to help every other member trying to rise in the world. We were addressed that our progress in securing our civil and political rights depends almost altogether on our own efforts, and that so astonished we have become to looking to others for assistance that we overlook the fact that our vote is the balance and deciding power in elections; also that we should take things for granted and should strive for what is due us, and that we could accomplish much if we only would get together. Commenting on the recent election, the speaker told of the surprise of St. Democratic Chairman Durbis at the result in this, Clark county, which was attributed to our voters who revolted against the arrogant
militating local Republican ma-

other parts of the state. He said

DECEMBER 23, 1922
The fight for laws against mot violence and lynch-murder MUST be made in the several states. Note what is said in our Atlanta (Ga.) letter elsewhere in this paper. We have been for years trying to impress this fact upon our people. Indeed, it was what impelled us, twenty-six years ago, to introduce and secure the enactment of what is now our Ohio anti-lynching law.
It Editor Ben, J. Davis of the Atlanta (Ga.) Independent ever learns how much is paid in salaries to DuBois, Johnson, White, Pickens, Bagnell and one or two more "secretaries" of the N. A. A. C. P., he will think that "queer", too. It makes one "shiver" when he thinks of the thousands of dollars that organization has literally "filtered" away in the last three or four years in salaries and in chasing "shadows" of one kind and another. These later were at times only excuses to raise more money from our hard-working people, particularly.
The editor of The Gazette is indebted to James Elmer Harvey of Sharline Heights (near Youngstown) for a copy of the December issue of "The Silent Partner," a publication characterized as "more than a magazine—an institution of inspiration and service." It was our first Christmas present, this year. Thank you kindly, Friend Harvey.
St. Louis and Washington, D. C. Afro-Americans presented Georges Clemenceau with beautiful and costly floral gifts while those of Indianapolis gave him an expensive silver loving cup a foot high on an ebony base. With the cup went an address praising Clemenceau and France for their fair treatment of our soldiers during the World War. Good!
NEW AND BETTER LEADERSHIP.
A. D. Male, of Mosopotamia, O., returned home via Cleveland, Friday, from Columbus, and West Mansfield, where he visited a daughter. He called at The Gazette sanctum and said that he found the "faithful" (state officeholders) at Columbus preparing to "walk the plank" soon after the first of the year, and that Gov-elect Vic Donahay was "on the ground" selecting his cabinet-offers. There are only a few Afro-American job-holders under Gov. Harry L. Davis. Indeed, this is one of the many reasons so many of our voters in Ohio failed to support the Republican state and many local tickets, this fall, and helps to explain the defeat of our candidate for governor and many local Republican candidates. Ohio Republican leaders, who still persist in refusing to give Ohio Afro-American Republicans the recognition due them, should be deposed and broader-minded, more sensible and loyal leaders selected to replace them, if the party is to succeed in this
state in the future. Our voters' patience has been worn out. President Harding and U. S. Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty, the "Buckeye" state's two most conspicuous, most important and greatest interested Republicans should take a hand in this reconstruction and at once. Another year of the present leadership and it will be too late!
'RAH! FOR HARNEY.
Of course we are all very proud of Patrolman Harrison Harney, World War veteran and a member of the Cleveland police force for less than half a year, who made the first "clean-up" of local drug-store robbers in recent months, and there have been more than a score of such crimes committed in that time. He shot one almost to death and wounded another. There were four, three of whom were captured by Harney and other officers who arrived on the scene, the Carnegie Drug store, 3546 Carnegie Ave. soon after he had done the shooting, last week Friday night. The daily papers gave Harney full credit for his meritorious work, and Chief Graul, Director of Police Martinec and Mayor Kohler all publically commended him, particularly the first two. Here is what they said in one local daily paper:
Chief Graul: "Very nice work, Harney's a real policeman and he knows what a policeman is for. He did his job intelligently and did it well."
"He did a fine piece of work and we're mighty proud of him," Safety Director Martinee said. Saturday, Patricia Harney did his plain, simple duty, as all other policemen should do," was Mayor Kobler's comment.
Yes, Mr. Mayor, that is true. But, O. how very few of them have been able to, for one reason and another? We have a good police and many good policemen of course, but after all is said and done, very few Harneys, it seems.
NO FEDERAL ANTI-LYNCHING LAW.
THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. DECEMBER 23. 1922
interest of our iner-state passengers that would redound to that organization's everlasting credit and be a great boon to all of our people who travel from one state to another in the southland. The Gazette some years ago tried to get the management of the N. A. A. C. P. to see this and act upon it—but in vain as usual. This would be doing something, win or lose, which is not true of chasing a federal anti-lynching "shadow" as was the case with the Dyer bill.
BURNING REAL MONEY
Current rumor has it that Garrett Morgan sank over eight thousand dollars in trying to publish the Cleveland Call and that Dr. E. J. Gregg lost over $1200. There are others, according to the same rumors. Dr. Gregg was not connected with the Call-Ohio Pioneer, many months. A score or more persons in this city lost money in the many times defunct Cleveland Advocate. The fact is, there is no field in Cleveland for two race papers! All ought to recognize this fact now in the light of the failure here of eighteen attempts, in the last twenty-five or thirty years, to publish a second, and even a third, occasionally, at the same time. There is no better business in the world in which to burn, and quickly, too, real money (lots of it) than the newspaper business, especially when those engaged in it do not know the business but do think so because they have at some time or other written a little, or more, for some newspaper or newspapers. A journalist or newspaper writer is not always a good business man by a good deal. It will be well to remember this. Then, too, the idea that we can do anything any other member of the race, or any one else can do, simply because we think so, does not always work out that. The other fellow may have learned the business. It will do no harm, we feel sure, to remember this, also. Persistent rumor, last and this week, couples the name of Secretary H. S. Chauney and other officers of the Empire Savings & Loan Company with an attempt to either resurrect and republish one of the two latest defunct local race papers, or to start a new one. This is to be regretted, if true. We give little credence to the report because we believe the officers of that young business venture have better sense than to become entangled in any such a notoriously losing venture. Nothing so quickly and so surely robs an organization like a savings company of the confidence of people than such a foolish move. Once the Empire Savings and Loan Company loses, even in part, the full confidence of our people of this community, that day dates the beginning of its end. Secretary Chauney and the officers and many of the stockholders must know this and know it will hardly make so serious a mistake. That is why we do not fully credit the report that he was "messed up" in any such foolish move. For years there has been a little clique of "Negroes" (most of them W. M. N.'s) in this city who have wanted to dominate "The Old Reliable" Gazette and because we would not permit them to do so have done their utmost in an effort to harm this paper in every way they could. Encouraging the guile to start a race paper in Cleveland was but one of the ways. Another was starting an occasional "damage" law-suit, or five at one fell swoop, as was the case several years ago. Of course they lost all of them, and there were many. Instead of being loyal to the race and its business enterprises and helping to make The Gazette a better paper by increasing its business all they could, they took just the other course, with the result already made clear. Now then, all these 50 or more years we have said little or nothing, certainly not as much all together as we have already written in this leader. But it is going to be very different in the future, we assure all. Those who persist, in the future, in trying to harm "The Old Reliable" we going to be given just what they deserve as a result of their knocking" proclivities and activities. We shall give them a taste of their own medicine.

Sikir's Frame-Up Story.
Paris, France, Dec. 19.—A close study of the film of the Carpenteri-Sikir fight shows that Francois Descamps, manager of the French boxer, went to Sikir's corner in the fourth round and said something to Hellers, the Senegalese's manager, according to a story printed by L'Auto today. The journal recalls that according to Sikir's allegations it was in the fourth round that it was arranged for him to allow himself to be beaten. Vice-President Bourbart of the boxing federation, in an interview with L'Auto, said that for the manager of one boxer to talk to the manager of another while a bout was in progress was a very serious thing. The journal adds that as the federation's investigating committee has also seen the film it will no doubt draw its own conclusions. It certainly looks as if Sikir's story of a frame-up that he balked, is true.
Signs Trust Deed For $100,000
Richmond, Va.—In order to protect the depositors of the now defunct Mechanics Savings Bank, Editor John Mitchell of The Planet, former president, has signed a trust deed for $100,00 in favor of the bank and the Knights of Pythias. The
trust deed is secured by real estate owned by Mr. Mitchell worth approximately $231,000. Mr. Mitchell complains that the receivers have delayed auditing the books.

THE GLOBE'S HOLIDAY PROGRAM!
Next week, the Globe has a real holiday program—five big acts of vaudeville and a Fountainine photo-lap. Here they are:
"The Five Musical Magpies" who have just returned from the west coast to spend the holidays at home. Manager Bob. Davis had a hard time in inducing them to accept an engagement week. "Hooten & Hooten" who were booked for the Globe about four weeks ago, but owing to illness, unable to perform. They are a very clever team and were headlined thouht the east. This will be their first western engagement, this season.
"Carter & Hunter," a very classy singing, dancing and talking act.
"Green & Price," also coming from the east, this being their first western engagement, this season, and ast but not least.
"Eddie Lemmons" a versatile and character comedian
As an extra added attraction for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Dec. 28th to 31st, the Globe will show Wm. E. Fontain's (Cleveland boy) latest feature pho'lonov entitled "The Virgin of Seminole" Brown & Brown "whirling doors" with the headliners at the Globe Theater, weekly Mon.-Fri. Mon. who set that raid pace, we spoke of in our last issue, to which the others on the bill measured up so nicely, and they should have credit for it. The Globe really had a wonderful show and has another, this week. The people are crowding the theater nightly, which the artists have exceptional ability of Manager Bob Doyle the artists and plays that please most his hundreds of patrons.
A CLEVELAND AND OHIO PRODUCT.
"They come and go"—don't they? But "The Old Reliable" remains with you. Eighteen "race papers" have been born and have died in Cleveland alone, to say nothing of the many more that "have passed out" in the state of Ohio, outside of Cleveland, since the advent of The Gate on Aug. 25, 1883. Then, too, the Gate has been our time since the day of its birth, and does not owe anybody or anything "a dime." Isn't that a record to feel proud of? We think so; don't you? Why not, then, "boost" The Gate and stop chasing after newspaper "shadows" or "rainbows." "The Old Reliable" is "to the manor born" (in Cleveland and Ohio) and not an interloper or "yesterday" arrival in this community or the

MeCord in his effort to force the obnoxious and, illegal "jim crow" Fulton school on our self-respecting and aspiring people of Springfield. His going will not be regretted!

Constant and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth—Stephen Girard.
The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise?
While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business crowding during "dull days."
The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It is a good time to "get wake."

IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON-
TEND FOR RIGHTS?
Colored Americans are the
only race, responsible members
of which are in favor of sub-
mitting to discrimination on
the claim that ther ruce“al-
ways will be discriminated
against.” The Jews are still
contending, after over 1900
years of aniversal diserimina-
tion, and are winmng even so-
cial rights today. ‘The Insh at
home have contemed for 700
years und are winning because
they will die rather than sul
mit. The race that save it’s of
no ‘use to resist, downs itself
and the world then will say,
*Negroes are not worthy of
equi rights; they are by na-
ture without self-respect and
have no ‘guts."" ‘The world re-
spects only thove who. resent
and resist proseriptions for
race.
Let us be worthy of the abo-
Hitionists, worthy «four own
fathers who have died in every
war to vindicate the title of
their race to equal liberty, and
forever resist denial of rights
in our native land, however
long race diserimn ation may
continue. To submit’ is to de-
serve contempt. — Boston
