Washington, May 18—Many southern states are beginning to dispense here with administration intermedding with the negro question. the offenders with the negro question. the strappers of the Labor Department or very disbanded Occupied Burden, and all these persons are of the lunatic fringe which the Democratic party has at a slight advantage the North or placed in office in the effort to cuddle and conciliate the "radical" element. the number of limousine liberals and parlor Bolshevik now holding office at Washington is very large and the number of the party, which has to bear all the odum of a supposed domination as the man of the estate for the radical stunts of its northern faction—to the disgust of its southern con-
Kirby Was Right.
The recent attack of J. H. Kirby on the Labor Department's intervention into the negro labor situation was the work of the bureau's known opposition to the Wilson administration, but recent events have tended to confirm Kirby's claims. The South has always held that the negro question must be left to the justice system, but the South has not made the situation itself from its own standpoint and to the greater ultimate good of the negro. The bureau will naturally oppose any interference by federal bureaus. But the work of so-called Bureau of Negro Economics has an interesting effect. So far the work of this bureau has outwardly been harmless. There has been no harm to the bureau. In fact, the bureau has borrowed
FLORIDA SENATE WONT LISTEN TO NEGROES' PLEA Orders Clerk Not To Read Petition Of Negro Uplift Ass'n.

Tallahassee, Fla., May 22. The State Senate not only refused to have spread on its journal a memorial from the "Negro Uplift Association of Florida," but stopped the clerk in the midst of a petition to "Negro Uplift Association" schools petition a for longer school years for colored children, for a colored superintendent to be in charge of Colored boys at the state's industrial school, expresses appreciation of efforts of governor and legislature trying to improve labor conditions at Mariana, demands more sanitary and better fitted waiting rooms in race facilities, and requests the protection of the prisoners and the protection of lynchings, asks for a discontinuation for a "disregard of law," and calls attention to the part served by the legislature in serving their country both at home and abroad.
The memorial states that every true American will agree that democracy should prevail, and adds that the adoption by the legislature of the recommendations of the petition should be quiet, exodus of the Negro from the South.
The petition was submitted by representative people of the race, in business and professions, and returned army officials, the efforty of the Negro in the fight of the grossest insult ever perpetrated on anyone people, even in the darkest days of Russia and the "Hun-

A visit to its offices, however, discloses features which do not harmonize its professions. The negroes occupy the living, living, living over-educated type, found in Washington in such great abundance. None of them show any signs of ever having been educated. The tables are littered with the inflammatory type of negro periodicals printed and circulated in the northern states. The tables are ported by the rich idols of New York who are at present toying with Bellevue negro publication and shows its Bellevistic tendencies quite plainly.

The bureau at present is under the control of Louis Post, assistant secretary of labor. It reserves the "old Public" do not have to be reminded of Post's unnous ideas on the race question. With these things are noted in Washington, reports come from Ohio and New York to the effect that active members of the party from the Republican, the Socialist party are under way.

Migration.
In three years more than one-half million black people; men, women and children, have gone out of the South to North, encouraged by economic conditions and rich promises. Now the North, encouraged by economic conditions and rich promises, is great need of labor, and some Northern communities, particularly Coastville, Pa, and North Carolina, are seeking to re-populate the South. Comes a large portion of the South saying, "We are the 'Niggered back' with new fangled Northern ideas." Outside of a natural flow of people returning to the South, "the Niggered back" with new fangled Northern ideas." Outside of a natural flow of people returning to the South, "the Niggered back" with new fangled Northern ideas." Take it for unquestioned truth, the black folk are not returning South. If there are industrial problems in the South, further movement, it is further movement, it is further North and West, rather than South.

Black Portuguese And Not
The Negro To Blame
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Boston, May 22.—J. X. Youngblood, white, has called attention in several ways, that the recent occurrence here during a recent parade, was not caused by "Negroes" but by "black Portuguese." In a statement he says: "The Portuguese in America have nothing in common with the Negro, except his complexion, just as the Hindu, Turk, Filipino and other Asiatic peoples. They are far removed from the trend of events and of ideas of the Colored people as they are from the whites. They live in their particular sections. Their customs of living are different. They do not claim themselves to be Negroes; neither do white people claim them to be Negroes, only when they commit a crime."

thousand Chicago laborers who have had six months or a year of education in the politics of Chicago, who have worked in the methods of Chicago's Second Ward—are they wanted as missionaries of labor among the Negroes of South Chicago?
If Chicago would be rid of this "surplus Negro labor," Chicago's motive would be to change the East St. Eau Claire, Springfield and Contesville, Va. and this labor, having changed the opinions and manner of the Negroes, had inculcated them with empathy towards everything to them, no longer needening them and finding them inconvenient and disturbing competitors with white labor, but they would be so. Why should the South take negroes out of Chicago to compete with white labor? There may be in the South employees who would accept and use any kind of labor, who would welcome a re-entry into the Negroes' "conef"—the band of saltiness of Chicago and the land of Northern COMMUNITIES OUGHT TO GIVE PREFERENCE TO THEIR PLANNING ABOUT SOUTRENN TREATMENT OF THE NEGROES.
South Short On Colored
Rock Hill, S. C., May 23—There has been some discussion here related to the community have grown so prosperous with material goods and money that they have formed an oratory known as "Fold-the-Air Club." One daily states: "Whether they hold holders, tell us more difficulty is being experienced by Colored labor of ever better men in the history of this city in which a child able to learn just what the trouble is." Another states: "Let the white people know that we will not harm them. To the housekeeper who has learned to serve herself there is no terror in the situation." Another way: "This comment from a white newspaper in the South reads like fiction for those who serve themselves."
Grand Army Of Americans Be-
ing Organized At Capitol.
---
For the moral, social, economic, educational and political welfare of its citizens, the National Capital under the name of "The Grand Army of Americans," its membership to comprise the official armed forces of the World War, together with their sons and daughters, is a distinction of race or color are to be drawn and the ramifications are to reach the entire United States.
In opinion of Colonel Charles Young having been asked in regard to the project, the following is his statement: "We do the venture an important and commendable one, but would suggest, first, that the provision that the organization officers and sailors would weaken the prestige of the organization if they wish. Second, the word 'political' should be understood to shut out party politics of all blish political groups, and sound policy in our external and social aspects of Americanization, safety and sound policy in our external and law and order in a common country only. It is a danger word in any constitution. Third, submit that the organization should be merging with an organization with the American Legion now being unable to do so. By doing so, we all working to a common end, presenting a more solid front to the difficulties and problems to reach the goal of our ideals. In belief I believe the opinion of a swapping; it was not simply for white humanity and for white freedom that the United States throw the award for all irrespective of race, color or
condition. Let America be friendly and free."
"I counsel, for one, that a respon-
sibility organization be made if possible.
In the 70,000 dead in the fields of
France, black blood freely and generously minced itself with white.
The surviving comrades should not honor these heroes by standing shoulder to shoulder for the principles for which the Almighty God has spat the living, both black and white."
RESPECTED PHYSICIAN DIES

AMERICAN-MADE MOTION PICTURES MADE A IITT WITH THE DUSKY SWANELLES OF EAST AFRICA, WHERE THE MOVIES KISS NEW ADMIRERS WITHIN SOUND OF THE LAUGHING HYNA, ACCORDING TO THE REPORT OF A NEGRO "WORKER
The movie kiss has won new admirers on the edge of the jungle, within sound of the hyena's laughter.
Nowhere is the love story of the screen more popular than among the Swahels of German East Africa—those dusky German soldiers who became British troops after the conquest of the territory by General Smuts in December, 1917.
So says W. P. Stanley, a Negro worker sent to serve the native and British soldiers in German East Africa, the National War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A., in co-operation with the "Y" International Committee. Mr. Stanley, whose home is at 233 West 149th Street, New York City, has just returned from more than one year's service in the tropics.
"The Y. M. C. A. cinema theater," Mr. Stanley said, in telling how the movies were brought to the Swahels soldiers, "was the old German market place in Dares Salaam. We set up screen in the middle of the hall. The Swahels would crowd into the place, sitting one almost in another's lap, so that, watching the pictures from both sides of the screen, fully 6,000 could be accommodated.
"They delighted in the sentimental pictures, the love stories, if the plot was not too complicated. The would chorus exclamations of pleasure when the hero kissed the heroine. Their other favorite among the screen was the fairy story film, which, because of their simplicity, they could follow easily."
"If at one of these Swahelli picture shows, you kept your eyes on the screen, you would believe yourself back in America. Every picture was an American film. Probably one had been shown on Broadway. But a glance at the gleaming eyes in the dark faces of the Swahelli men, and the sound of a hyena laughing off in the jungle, would call you back to a realization that you were in the "Y" cinema theater in Dares Sahaam." Often, Mr. Stanley said, the laugh of the hyena would cut into the clam or of heater debate. For the Y. M. C. A. organized a debating society among the British troops from the West Indies, and the Tommies would plunge into a mele of talk over some such theme as:
"Resolved: That money is more essential to success than education."
"One day," Mr. Stanley said, "an old man, all skin and bones, wandered into the camp. A deputation of Gold Coast natives visited their commander, soon afterwards. They had a "cave" in a lake, and the commanding officer permit them to eat this old man."
Three Y. M. C. A. canteens for the Swahells alone, and Mr. Stanley learned the languages in order to be able to supervise the natives in charge of them. The tastes in the Africans, he said, were quite un-exotic. They relish sardines and salmon, cakes, cheese and canary, quite as much as the average Tommy d.l.
Five Negro "Y" workers served in German East Africa, and two of them gave their lives in the land where few white men can live a year.

MAKES RED HOT REPLY TO EDITOR OF CRISIS
CHALLENGES DU BOIS TO PRINT "BILL OF PARTICULARS." CHARGES HIM WITH BEING NEITHER UNSELFISH NOR SINGERE.
Washington, D. C.—In the May is—soon found that I COULD NOT DO an of the Crisis magazine, Dr. W. E. EVERYTHING; but there were a B.DoBio, editor, attempts to "quit" a number of important things I could do, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, regarding certain conditions said to exist in the course of public addresses, respectively, when the case has been looked after. D. C. and Richmond, Va., among Negro troops in France and, made veiled ininations concerning the way and manner in which he suffered officers overreported, to one by the welfare of Negro soldiers overseas.
When the matter was mentioned to the Negro officers, Negro chapmans and Negro and other American civilians, did receive prompt action at any hand, Dr. be said.
Dr. Scott, he said.
"Yes, I have read Dr. DuBois' questions as propounded and sent around to the colored newspapers through his advance sheets. Apparently he seeks to discredit one who, according to his own testimony, has been laboring in the War Department 'under very difficult circumstances' and who has been a member of the army to take a firm stand for the rights of Negro soldiers at home and overseas. In the first place, I do not recognize the usurped right of Dr. DuBois to 'call me to account,' or as the man to whom I must give an account of my stewardship. I am willing to leave to that loyal, unblased, and sane jury of twelve million colored Americans, whose 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s have been in the War Department as to whether or not I have done my full duty. I am now preparing an account of my stewardship with it be presented to that jury at the right time and in the proper way."
"In the representative capacity I have been serving during the war I have been serving the 'loyal and unselfish co-operation' of all colored Americans, whether of the radical or conservative type, but again quoting the words of Dr. DuBois, my association with him during the war has been 'AT THE COST OF SUSPICION AND CRITICISM,' for I have been repeatedly warned that he is neither unselfish nor sincere."
"In the same way, having, however, to read on pages 7 and 8 of the same issue of The Crisis, wherein Dr. Dubois assumes the self-appointed task of in-sinuring my alleged neglect or fall-ure to do certain things or 'every thing' in the article headed 'MY MISSION,' he says: 'I went to Paris. What did I do when I got there? First, 'There were 'CERTAIN THINGS THAT I DID NOT DO. But it did not follow that, because COULD NOT DO EVERYTHING COULD DO NOTHING.

"Now, it was precisely the same when came to Washington and began to understand 'under very difficult circumstances' the War Department. There were certain things that I did not do' and I

soon found that 'I COULD.NOT DO EVERYTHING,' but there were a number of important things I could do and I did do for the benefit of Negro soldiers in camps at home as well as overseas. Of course, no sane person would ask or expect a man holding a confidential position in a great department of the Government to reveal in public print official and confidential information, but as proof of the fact that complaints concerning Negro soldiers overseas reported to me by Negro officers, Negro chaplains and Negro and other American civilians, did receive prompt action at my hands. I submit at this time just a few of the many letters which I have received from Negro officers who actually served overseas and from other men who brought specific complaints and grievances of Negro soldiers overseas to my office for attention. These letters express appreciation of the satisfactory and, in most cases, the effective way in which I have taken up and handled all such complaints.
"Be it remembered that American white officers and soldiers had their own troops, and felt as the Negro troops belonging to the American Expeditionary Force—some of which they had to endure in the war, and even the War Department in Washington altogether to remove or remedy—and yet I offer no apologies for the loss."
"In order that the exact facts might be secured regarding colored soldiers oversee it, will be征候 that it was upon the recommendation of the Negro Editor's Conference, held in Washington, D. C., June 1918, which recommendation was pressed by me, Mr. Ralph W. Tyler was designated by the Committee on Public Information to render this service. Mr. Tyler constantly called to the attention of the War Department, through me, certain conditions; and in each and every case these complaints were brought to the attention of the proper officials of the War Department.
My files evidence the fact that Dr. DuBois wrote me repeatedly calling to my attention complaint after complaint concerning wrongs, grievances, discriminations, etc., alleged to exist among Negro soldiers in various camps here in America. He was informed time after time with reference to the investigations which followed as a result of those complaints, and expressed in writing his satisfaction with the action taken in following up such complaints. Having gone on his "Mission" to France December 1, 1918, why did he wait five months until the May, 1919, issued of "The Crisis" to mention to me any overseas complaints? I fear that the animating impulse back of his present inquiries has not as yet been altogether disclosed to the public. An old and familiar

Some Observations.
Many things are happening throughout the country these spring days. On all sides men are making history of the past, and women will grow brighter with the years.
The studied efforts of certain southern white newspapers to make it appear that they would be the people who about a year ago journeyed toward the north, are now dismantled and want to return, has failed, run down, and when they had the acid test applied to them it was found that they would not stand. From the south some time ago, went away to stay. Before leaving they took everything into consideration — they would not only return, but if all the signs don't fall there are others here who will simulate their

is the name of the North Louisiana metropolis where I landed the morning of the 25th of April, where I was bilted to speak that night and the night of the 28th. A part of the plan had miscarried. Revivals were every where to full blast. The business of soul-saving had taken precedence over all other enterprises, and as a result on the night of the 28th. I could find no place to speak. You see, I merely wanted to teach the way to get the bread and meat of this life, while the preachers were talking about that living bread, which, if a man eats, he will hunger no more. On Tuesday night, the 29th, through the kindness of Rev. W. A. Bingham, the pastor of Antioch, famous Antioch, I got a small bunch of the commercial elect together and was permitted to expound the great doctrine of "Race Organization For the Promotion of Commercial Business." Rev. J. M. Carter presided and a brother whose voice was not broken, but badly cracked, raised the Old Hundred, "And Am I Born to Die, to Lay This Body Down?"

The meantime Mr. and Mrs. Titus had decided that I had bed and board at their very comfortable home, and Bro.

Here I caught the natives more or less unprepared to greet me, and I was able to get them to R. Swancey. I did not utterly fail.

Bonham, Texas.
May 9, was my next stop. I spoke under the auspices of the Colored Welfare League, of which Mr. S. M. Johnson is secretary. A reception committee led by Rev. Higgs met at a Talking seat in a Ford in waiting. I was soon at the big general store of Mr. J. D. Johnson. He carried a large box of dry goods, etc., and is said to be worth $100,000. From there, in company with Rev. Hicks I visited the following and colored by Colored persons: Arthur Murphy, groceries, N. Ample Moore, chef; Richard Murphy, restaurant, N. Star St.; Dr. A. H.

Whitewright, Texas, May 9.
In my next stop, I unadded here out to the town, and I was owned by Mr. O. W. Andrews, one of the biggest farmers in Texas. You see it came about this way. I came from Bonham to Belle and finding that I had a lay-over from 8:50 a. m. to 2:30 p. m. I decided the one of the changes, either the county the the WhiteWright, less than ten miles away, or call up the man who owns a car. After examining the ties and finding out how fine they were, I decided that walking was not good, and accordingly I began the course of the town. Mr. O. W. and Mr. L. L. were the people of the country. Last year he raised this two-year different specimen of seed on his farm, besides several kinds of anormal life. He is a large property on her, having extensive holdings in Sherman, Muskogee, and the city. He was carried me over his farm and showed me wheat five feet high. But as I started to say, he gave me to eat and then a ride to Whitewright. Mr. Davis had taken the responsibility to make my comingன்னo. He was a great artist of the way I was. I was a great artist of the way I was. Mr. Prockover, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis, Mr. and Mrs. Dovho and others. I spoke at the C. S. E. Church and Prof. Rucker presided. I had a full house and expt. led to the people that they must go up. I could be saved. The speech was received. Some good work was done.
I left Whitewright Saturday morning. May 10, going to Van den Bosch, and I was in the kitchen in Den Bosch, so I asked three minutes. I had five little pigs in Sherman.
Dallas is the town where I chance shirts. I did this and just as I was walking down the street, I rain set in and a result I did not board the iron horse. I rode the iron horse. I found my way to New Hope Baptist Church, where I ran up in the rear of a devil-driving reviver. Matur A. S. Zemin imported from Morgantown, Ree J. B. Plus, who was doing the preaching. I board the Oklahoma gospel plant with plans and proof of death and called to New and bathe it. Night telling the wonder story of the Cross. Many first-lock shiners have been snatched in a new and bathe it. Some fifty sculta or more have been snatched as brands that might burn from the cremated flesh.

HOW ADVERTISING PAYS
There is no longer any argument as to the value of advertising for the business, but more than proved it is worth. Business success is now generally accepted as founded on advertising, making the more successful the business. It is still worth while, however, to advertise a service to the customer, to increase the more information coming from the point of view of the man who wants to buy. Advertising renders a service to the customer by increasing the more information that it renders to the dealer. In these days of technical methods and computer production it is physically impossible to know at first purchaser should know, at first买, all the features and details that enter into the purchase, and to gain information by short cuts—and here advertising helps him. The advertising of a manufacturer's special merits are, and for what purpose it may be best used. Whether the purchase is washing or automobile advertising is his guide, for through advertising he is able to choose the model best. Furthermore, advertising is of great value to the man who buys with a close watch on the business, by consistently following the advertisements in his daily paper he is able to buy to慰安 the price that often mean considerable price for an office. The information and costs of the Information Service Department of Labor, believes this is a time to encouragebuy, in order that business, now resuming after war, may be made normal by the government, by means of aid in resumption of business; it means an aid of patriotism; as it was during the war, from the time during it during the war. But at any other time, buying should be undertaken wisely; and there is no better time, buying should be purchasing than advertisements.
TREATMENT OF THE NEGRO.
(From New Bedford (Mass) Stan dard)
There are many people this country who, if put it mildly, do not care much what is done to them, they should be so much so far as they are naturally abhor, but as to disfranchudication opportunities they are to speak plainly, in different cases, today, their ability is saying that they guess if they lived in the South they would do what the Southerners are doing. Their attitude is that they should be more than they hurt the Negro, but it is intelligible and it is not affirmatively hostile.
But if these people in a sense, condolence the denial, to the Negro, of his constitutional rights, they do not condone hypocrisy in the matter. Specifically, they have no use for theฮาคอร์ʿes of the most personal sympathy for oppression. Wilson has so frequently uttered when accompanied, as in his case, by a negative and unhelpful, the negro in the South where his electoral votes come from.
In Paris as a journalist, Mr. Duisman, editor of the Crime-Afro-Africa's press, was moved for the press in the press of the American mission, to whom he applied: "The French government has been a pre-political pre-political tool in the matter to took the matter up with the French American denied passports. "The net result," Mr. BuBois writes, "it is a complete, uncloned, "Fraud," "Frought," "Frought," "Frought," and "Frought." The Pan-African Congress to hold the Pan-African Congress in Paris. It was held despite the obstructions of the French administration. Mr. Wilson was very de-democratic and was an one-with-regard to the oppression Jugo-Slungs, but naturally he does not want the "fugitive" and "fugitive" by the Southern states stirred up abroad or, for that matter, at home. Altogether, the indignities heaped upon our Negro troops by the army con-

One does not have to be a Negro phile to feel disgust for the lack of sincerety in the President's talk about the rights of the oppressed, and for the obvious political reason behind his unwillingness to espouse the Japanese demand for racial equality. The Solid South is his political meal ticket.
AMERICA'S LYNCINGS
Indianapolis News).
According to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a city-thru Negroes of the United States, the state stands on white mobs in 1918. The war can not be blamed for this outrageous record, for only two persons were inched on account of diholy uttes which were not included on the total of Negroes inched. One Negro was linched after being accused of quarrying with his employer, another for creating a charge of stealing a loot. Contrary to the general belief, only 30 per cent of the victims were accused of being in the other states with nineteen recorded lynchings, while Texas was second with eleven.
Thus, we have the spectacle of an error of the time. In 1900, the national and the fundamental rights of the common citizens of the nation that sent these men forth not only took the law into effect, but also the law of the federal rights, but indulged in orgoles of the most degraded savagery. For which there is no parallel among civilized peoples, exasperated in the American civilized people. While the civilized world was still white with anger over the execution of an English nurse by German soldiers, the man who took the horrible horrible cruelties upon a Georgia woman who, had she not been killed by the mob, would have become a unleashed man.
Americans do not need to be reminded that insulting is wrong. While education may in certain extent lessen the evil, it is not no necessary as the selection of law officers possible. The country could not come some southern Governors lack the courage to deny a mob, and they encourage financing br falling to punish the man who is in the power of the public.

to office, they will have to wear the brand of lynchers. Northern states are not entirely blameless, but as a rule northern mob leaders are punished. The south must come to this point before it can be rocked with an capable of reform.

WHERE PATRIOTISM FAILS.
A Kansas City man writes to this department to complain that a telegram sent from St. Paul, fled in that house until 1:40 Sunday morning, and received in Kansas City at 9:36 the same evening, was not delivered at his house until 1:40 Sunday morning. Influenced Kansas City man, "And to think, the government has infused a new sense of service that is 'kind of service.' The man who sent "the message paid the indemnities for the bed and a sound sleep" he ensured that it "would be sent through in a hurry." Another man complains. Why not replace, as becometh patriotism, even at the hour or 1:40 Sunday morning, when called from a comfortable bed an a sound sleep. He hours to come from St. Paul Mun. to "Kansas City. Mo. That puts an abatement to this Secretary's conversation," sending telegrams by freight trains instead of electric to the mailbox also mails "better time to send a message by express than by wire.

"He must be pro-democracy." This patriotic view of the matter, here comes the infuriated citizen with a letter, the Sabbath morning, actually complaining that it required seven hours and two hours of what he delivered after it was received in Kansas City. No wonder our good Secretary Burke complains of the ingratitude of
DEMOCRATIC PARTY STILL PERSONAL PLAYTHING.
(From Detroit Free Press)
A meeting of the national committee of the Democratic national committee on May 26. It is probable that Mr. Wilson will communicate some of his ideas and commands to the committee, and the sequence the gathering may be looked upon as the first move by the "ins" in the next presidential, campaign committee to outline—or accept a party platform and to O. K. Wilson's choice of himself or of the other candidates. All this of course, is on the assumption that Mr. Wilson has not lost the stranglehold on his party which has been the focus of the committee, the state central committee, and the local committees his bond slaves the last six years, and has been unable to remark that the Democrats have a leader without a party. And then he must to suppose that the Wilson has lost his grip on his party organization. It is significant that in all the criticism he has received, there has been no talk of a revolt against Mr. Wilson except through revolt from the Democratic party. However, the party's secretary to Mr. Wilson

saying, "When folks can't use you they then 'knock you', you comes to my mind. Dr. DuBois knows, and his friends know, and the record proves, that as far back as two days before the meeting of the Negro Editors' Conference, which I called here in Washington, June, 1918, he was seeking my personal good offices that he had to give to the Negro Editors. He knows that I did everything I could to help him secure that much coveted commission in the army which he so eagerly but vainly sought. He also knows, as the record will show when necessity arises, that there were other occasions also when Dr. DuBois probably had to give his chestnut out of the fire* for him. Personal Testimony as to Service Rendered Colored Americans Overcoming "While in the very nature of the case it was impossible for me or any others to do during the war, everything was going on among Negro soldiers or even white soldiers in France, yet, in my efforts to handle specific complaints that come to my attention, the Secretary of Negro troops generally, it is gratifying to have received from Negro soldiers, Negro officers or Negro chaparrales, Negro officers, Secretary of Negro personnel, numerous letters on the order of the few partially quoted below: "Hom.

Washington, D.C., May 10, 1919.
“Washington, D.C., May 10, 1919.
“From the very beginning of your services in the War Department near the 19th and 19th战斗, I have not fully opportunity to know something of the hard position you have filled with so much benefit to our race generally and to colored soldiers, particularly.
“We have made an order to have been my visits to your office in the War Department for the purpose of presenting specific cases involving complaints and grievances of the war. I have been on the home and overseas and also cases involving discrimination against colored men and women in the Government service here at Washington.
“We are here for the purpose of presenting, from positive, personal knowledge, covering nearly two years of intimate contact, that you have always gone to the other place, and that you are in a firm, many, uncompromising way—urging Right and Justice in behalf of colored soldiers at home and overseas, and the behalf of colored Americans generally.
Yours very truly.
(Signed) Archibald H. Grimke, President, Washington Branch, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
“I would rather have the testimony of these gentlemen who know the facts concerning my efforts in behalf of Negro soldiers overseas, some of whom actually served “over there”, than to be at all perturbed by, or to treat other than with appropriate contempt and the insinuating remarks, printed and spoken, of a self-centered, self-seeking, unfair critic—the main drift of whose life has been to tary to “tear down” and to destroy what other men have sought to build up for the honor and welfare of their country and race. Discredited himself by a large portion of the Negro press of the country, he now seeks to discredit others. Surely “misery likes company,” but in the desperate effort of Dr. DuBois to rehabilitate himself in the eyes of the Negro world after the severe drubbing he has received in the Negro public press and otherwise. It might be well for him to know that if he is trying to “come back,” and again pose an ardent defender of the race, he shall not do so at my expense. I am fully prepared for any further onslaught he may make.
What the Record Shows.
My record in the War Department speaks for itself. I am not ashamed of it. I have no excuses or apologies for it. I have no doubts about doing everything," as he confesses for himself, yet I challenge any man to show wherein I have failed to perform what I should have expected or could expect that a civilian official in the War Department could altogether control every untoward action of soldiers overseas, it was always expected at least (and I have so inspected it as my duty) that such actions would be the matter of presenting the complaints and grievances of such men when brought to his attention, and should be handled with a thorough investigation and bring about change.
sible, a prompt and suitable remedy.
The following recommendations, among others, have been brought to the attention of the War Department by me and urged as offering assistance to the Negro officers and soldiers overseas:
1. That the Negro soldiers of the Labor and Engineer units be given the same opportunity for promotion and advancement as are given the same opportunity for soldiers as are given the Negro laboring units be given Negro non-commissioned officers.
2. That all Negro units be supplied with Negro chaplains.
3. That military police be selected from the men as well as from white soldiers.
4. Also a change in the matter of doing the men as well as from white soldiers.
5. Also a change in the matter of doing the men as well as from white soldiers.
6. That trials by summary court may be the case of these particular units be discontinued.
7. That the non-control of social questions outside of camp limits unless requested by the social and other questions non-military in nature.
8. That racial discrimination among American military both at home and overseas be in no way countered by the War Department.
9. That officers of armed officers in combat units be made as much promotions be earned, etc.
I challenge him to cite specifically overseas complaints among Negro workers in my attention to my attention or to the attention of my office, where according to testimony, such complaints should have been brought and pressed for correction.

Organize Blacks
Mary White Owington, one of the leaders of this organization, has been involved in the organization and denouncing the South. It asserted that the administration has been playing up to men who claim to pay the expenses of many jailers on junkets supposed to be connected with "war work." On some occasions, the president has harragued by northern Democrats on the subject of the president's alleged purpose to force "reform" for the South and to be the "negress" friend. The charter of some of these publications is stricter. One of them requested that the president demand for a declaration for "race equality" at the peace conference used this headline: "Wars Are Only Heavy Negro Youth Should Be Armed." The Postoffice Department, which has been a little severe on some types of discrimination, has demanded aflammatory stuff to circulate openly. The appointment of Norman Hapgood as minister to Denmark rather than to the United States who recall his vilification of the South and his wife's circulation among the viciously South-battling negro agitators. The National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People makes a practice of addressing impoverished readers. Readers might just as well be informed that this organization is largely composed of Socialists, black and

The encounter takes place between Bill Stirton (Mr. Farnum) and "Silver" Jack Belmont (Alphonze Elther) at the foot of a staircase in "The Nugget," the social center of primitive Yellow Gulch. Both men struture with the passion born of years of hatred.

The fortune of battle turns finally in Belmont's favor, but Bill soon recovers with the roar of a lion, he hurts himself upon Jack with such fury, that the latter is forced to save himself by clutching at his opponent's throat.
Belmont locks his hands around his neck in the pressure his heavy blow. The strain of the encounter is sheared from his face by firmly sucking the violence of the carcereal effort. Stratton tears himself away and with a terrible smash his bicee into the breathless crowd.
Belmont is on his feet in an instant and the contest goes on for several moments. It ends with a crushing knockout. The victor is so exhausted that he sinks to the floor by the side of his defeated opponent.

"HARE PISTS" IS VIRILE STORY OF THE WEST
Harry Carve's New Photophy Seen At The Mammoth Theatre is a Cowboy Thriller.
Cheyenne Harry's father was the town marshal, and disturbances might be a result. But occasionally they did occur, and one of them cost the town a Mexican bullet.
The police believe that he would put aside his gun, for she feared the same fate for him. Harry promised that he would never draw it again, either in attack or defense.
His enemies, and particularly Lozano, the Mexican, and his master, Boone Travis, soon discovered that Harry was no longer the Harry of old, quick on the trigger and fearless at all times. They insisted him, ran off with his cattle, plagued him in many ways. But when they branded his little brother, but daring of his own, and they allowed him to run, that was the end, to engulf them. The play sweeps on to a big climax, which shows the virile Harry Carey at his best.
O' man who can't shoot can't brand cattle on this range!—
but Harry showed them later that he could do both.
HARRY GAREY
If you can't get out on the range and ride a horse, go see Harry Carey in his new big wildland Western drama—the story of a man who promised his mother he'd never shoot, but had to take his promise back. It's a thriller!

NOTES FROM MT. ROSE BAPTIST
CHURCH
Our reporter was over worked last week, hence we had no report in The Express. Last Sunday was the banner day of the year. We begun with sunrise prayer service led by Rev. S. R. J. Motely, and the Holy Ghost seemed to have lingered with us all day. Our Sunday School was well attended, and Superintendent Booker was full of smiles. Our brilliant pastor was at his best Sunday. His Subject for the morning hour, (The Ladder of Divine Promise) was well suited to the occasion and ably handled. Our installation services at the City Auditorium was indeed grand. The various pastors who spoke seemed anxious to make our pastor feel at home to his new field of labor, and our membership enjoyed it immensely. Our B. Y. P. U. held one of the best sessions of its history. President Cornelius is bringing things to pass in this department. But did you hear our Junior Choir? They were wonderful to look out. Seniors The Choir, of the day was reached at the night service. Pastor Johnson preached one of the most powerful sermons ever preached in the city.
Our congregation has not been in the habit of shouting much of late, but they broke the record Sunday night as we had shouters in doors and out. Sixteen were added to our membership and the officers reported $416.59. Mt. Rose agreed to bear the expense of moving pastor Johnson from Houston to Dallas and buy him a car, and we are ready for both. We are delighted to have Miss I. L. Reed, the pastor's cousin, an accomplished stenographer, unite with our church during the week. She has organized a large business class, and we believe will give splendid account of herself in Dallas.
Our pastor attended the Executive Board of the Zion Rest Association in Rosser last Wednesday and Thurs- day, where he had been programmed to conduct a Bible Institute; and if we are to judge from the reports coming from that section, he took care of the work in a large way. He expresses himself as being well pleased with the brotherhood of the district. Old Mt. Rose is proud to see her old time crowd worshipping within her walls once more. We never have room enough at the Sunday night service. The people are simply wild over Dr. Johnson's powerful semons. Our pastor is not only a man of education, but one of the most powerful preachers of the age. Those who hear him once never fail to come again and bring someone with them. Our own Dr. Shields quitted himself in the synot at the Auditorium Sunday. We are all proud of him. We regret the incident which caused Mrs. M. A. Harkins to have to keep bed this week Mrs. Hawkins is one of the most sweetly disposed women of this city, and no one believes she would knowingly impose upon anyone. Her many friends pray for her speedy recovery.
