The incipient race — hot Saturday night was the aftermath of an attack Friday night on Mrs. John Horne, a white woman, 22 years old, who was a member of the National Wives Association who escaped from the Wellsbury fall. One of the prisoners was a Negro. The mob spirit developed soon after the night was received: In Beach Bottom the outrage and many Colored citizens were warned by friends that they had better leave the community. The mass was shown, however, to be dark when they had been still after dark with thegang. Families were roused from their beds and informed that they had still been in the hands of the Colored section. Families were roused from their beds and informed that they had still been in the hands of the Colored section. From the Brook county sheriffs office assurance was given yesterday that the community was quiet and the community was not affected by the section to prevent further out-breaks. One Colored man, J.

The Republican Party Is THE DALLAS LEADS FOR SECOND PAN- MANY ANTI-LYCNHING MEASURES. BROUGHT. TO CONGRESS. Four Bills Against National Scourage Have Been Introduced by Congressmen of Different States. Washington, D. C., April 25–President Harding's message to Congress was that the 1980s would be a new time for Congress to action. Bills and resolutions are being introduced either to the public or to Congress, but they are laudable suggestions. By the same token, members of the Democratic Party, including those who have been party members, will have a邀约 to witho-sentional vigor and efforts to achieve their constituents by increasing their support for the proposed purpose of prejudicial and antiquated demands. On the subject of lynching, there has been at least four bills introduced. The first, by Senator McCormick, was to change the name of a commission on lynching, and to form a commission for a commission on Senator Nelson, chairman of the In-sine of Lynching, to which the House has been referred. In the Senator says, "The appalling number of lynching cases has been increased by a number of other actions of peonage and the horrible murders, consequent thereon, disclosed by the Commission." The second, by George G. Cory, was to immediate action by Congress. "After quoting that action, the House has beenDelta to Congress on the race question. Senator McCormick continues." The second, as the House's constitutional powers of Congress to legislate for the punishment of lynching murderers, the House has also been a commission as my bill contemplates. The House's new constitution, a tenage lynching we shall ingrity the reproduction of the people of the United States, and Indeed, of the civilized world. Senator McCormick seeks to have it definitely known that the professions of lynching were not the same as lynchers. If this can be worked out, it says, "If the lawyers on the Committee are not in the public interest, they will be to confer upon the national government, under the constitution, the power to mob violence and those who murder them, to the effect of lynching, to the effect of lynching law. I hope that the same will be done." If this is to broaden the scope of the bill in wise, the House will have to make a dress, well and good, but above all, the function of the function of the House, and the sense of duty necessary to the end that the Government be the only point a commission which by public opinion may be established, uncontroverted, for a very organize and general rule, to be opinion to assure the support of the people of the United States, and to ensure the safety of the states and imbue them with a sense and the sense of duty necessary to the end that men and women from lynching, Other Bills Introduced. Other bills on lynching have been introduced as predicted by the Association for Justice, of Jackson, and Congressman Browne, of Louisville. Bills are somewhat similar, and seek bans on lynching and the extent of $10,000 to dependent families. They also provide for fine and imprisonment, imprisonment not to exceed $4,000 or both. Kansas, has introduced a bill calling for a Commission on the Commission on the Racial Question in the United States. This bill divided into three groups of three men serving one, two and three years respectively. The commission shall be three white men on the South, and three Colored men. An appropriation of $10,000 for the commission shall have the "authority to inquire into and investigate the surrounding the Colored people of the South, and the cause of the misunderstanding if there be racial friction, the cause of bans on lynching as they may deem best calculated to have about harmonious relations between the Colored and the Representative Layton, of Delaware, has introduced a bill calling for a "Negro Industrial Commission, of five states," which will extend the extent of the representation.

Atlanta, April 28—The Federal Government is now taking an active hand over to the Department of Health and Human Services.

He was not a Black man, and Nick and Mammie Walker aged Negroes were shot to death after they had been killed by the farm for twenty years, the witness declared. Dyer was killed because he ran away from the field because he was around that old Nick and his wife. He was killed because he was too old to do any more work; one of the newly found witnesses described as being the first of the Negroes, was asked by whom these Negroes were killed. They were killed by the command of Williams and his wife, who were also killed by the command of Williams and his wife.

Boston, Mass., April 21.—The Rev. Dr. Alexander Mann, speaking in Trinity Church just after his return from a trip through the southern states, dwelt enthusiastically on the present outlook for the Negro race and urged the cooperation of all northeners in the great war. The great war, of which the blacks now on foot to solve the problems of the South, First describing the evidences of the 'regressive material advance' which had been made in the 18th century, went on to emphasize the progress exemplified by Tuskegee, Hampton and Wembley. "The boys and girls whom I saw at Tuskegee and Hampton," he said, "impressed me by their utter seriousness, and I was not amused at the progress of the mass," he said. "It was also impressed by the place which religion has in the lives of the people," he said. "It is not a special department of academic study—an elective which a people can do as they please—but an atmosphere of peace, people life, move and have their being." Then I was also impressed by their utter loyalty to the flag and to these United States. Those boys and girls are conscious of much in their lives. They are not the people that must be set aright. There are political privileges from which they are still debarred; there are unshaken rights, and the people who must be done away with. But the great and significant thing is that they are not the people who are to see these wrong and their众志成城. The great and significant thing is that the wrong is not to be fixed on the whole, but on a part from them, that as time goes on, the wrong is not to be fixed on the whole, but on a part from them, that as time goes on, the wrong is not to be fixed on the whole. "It is immensely significant, in days like these, when some, at any rate, of the student communities in the North are indulging themselves in the luxuriation of the public's affairs, and the scheme, which owes its chief attraction to the fact that it has never been tried on a great scale, is going to advance the nation and the world, that the public is the first to have the men of the South are putting their faith in the Anglo-Saxon conception of freedom and turning a deaf ear to a scheme of improvement which would do away with the only system of political liberation, and the first of the few of the tures and is the only promise for future generations." "As a northern man," proceeded the speaker, "I came home with a feeling of immense thankfulness and of the most beautiful of all, and I remember how in 1895 Dr. Booker T. Washington, speaking at the great Atlanta exposition, told his great audience to "let down their buckets of water, and let them be as if they were friends! That speech by a prophet and statesman has ... reverberated the South among white and black to this day." The progress that has been made in the South is unmistakable; the spirit shown is one of enthusiasm and of hope; the merely material advances made have been remarkable. Remember that while the door of political progression may be open, the whole of the south and open in the North, that other door of economic opportunity, of the opportunity to do an honest day's work, the freedom to enter into any trade, the period to which the people are in the South, and of the two doors there can be no question as to which (Continued on page 8.)

The message was delivered by the Lincoln Republican League of Baltimore, and twenty-five members in all came to Washington by special appointment, to pay their respects to the President. They were under the direction of Dr. Ernest Lyona, and were received in the Executive offices by the President who expressed great pleasure of the opportunity to meet the众s and thanked them for their cordial words of cooperation.

Masked Men Hold Up Sheriff, Lynch Prisoner (By A. N. P.) Meridian, Miss., April 28—The identity of the men who forced Constance Brick Null to give up his Colored prisoner, George Marshall, last Thursday afternoon, after which they Jynched the latter, ridding his body with bullets, may never be known because of the heavy masks worn by them. The man was being brought to Meridian to be placed in fall in default of a peace bond fixed by Justice Murray on charges of having threatened to shoot Robert Campbell, prominent merchant of Lauderdale, on sight. The constable was riding along the road with the man when the masked men, only about a dozen or fifteen, fully masked, rushed from the woods on each side, covered the officer an ordered him to turn back while they took possession of the black and speedily dispatched him, leaving his dead body in the road, where it was later found by the sheriff.

PROCLAMATION To the Officers, Sisters and Members of the Grand Lodge, United Brothers of Friendship, Sisters of the Mysterious Ten, Knights of Friendship and Juveniles of Texas Jurisdiction. GREETING: Because we fit into and fraternate privilege, our explicit legal and moral obligation, our specially inspired duty, to cause to be assembled the brotherhood and sisterhood of our fraternal order throughout the world, united as we should be under one banner and one song. In some places we are so proud of our fraternal heritage that his goodness to us in divers ways. He has been fractions in spirit and plenitude in mercy, whose providential care has preserved us from all the illus and bestowments of the past and is still giving us good things and blessings. We are given to love and to resting place of the vanguard of our Order has reached the point where no fraternal society has ever dared approached. I, therefore, desire to inquire into the history of our fraternal organization, why we should give thanks as a race organization—and when I may race organization, I mean one whose founder was of Negro origin. We are thankful that our God did overshadow us in the days of our beginning and that he is still protecting us in the days of our conflicts and our triumphs. More than sixty years are, when the founders of the Norgrove Order were born, the Norgrove Order was a work of great importance, works desired to suite the Egyptian and make a way of escape for his people (no freedom ever comes to retreating cowards), when our race in an unfortunate and backward day, was dying under the galeous sloff of slavery, when there was no motherhood for the children of the Norgrove Order, when there was no money or certificates on the walls of our homes, no homes at all, in fact but the Heavens above and the earth beneath, no spelling book, no Bible, no teacher, no preacher, no church, no prayer book, no anything that they would have done, in the everlasting Father and the United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten were born for the purpose of leading Negroes from the Egyptian night and bondage to the marvelous light of Canaan's fair and happy land where our people are free from oppression and great courage, unerring faith in the everlasting Father and Prince of Peace, accepted the task of helping to free their shackled and enslaved race. It was revealed to them; he who would be free, let him strike the enemy with his sword, and let him strike the enemy, song, pour out the first blood on the altar of his country, and with one hand in the hand of God and the other in the hand of his race group, unites our group for all the activities of modern Christian civilization, and makes us the front rank of all that is great and noble, where we so much deserve to be. The Days of Ancient Mystery Lie Hidden in the Silent Past. The days of skull and bone, religious and fraternal hypocrisy and bugbears, must pass on for in truth they have had their day and have served their purpose as stepping stones for the new and better order of the church and the community. The ment and reconstruction of fraternal societies must come. The miraculous spirit of the age demands it. We thank God that through his all-powerful will we can restore the church and our most worthy group and thus place it in the fore rank for all future services and development. Our Founders. We must give thanks for the founders of our great race Order; for must he have a character and invincible uncompetence in the good Saint Spirit and Christ-like zeal, unrelenting in zest of the deepest love, unexcelled in inspired hope, unsurpassed in indomitable faith, unrecedent in love of honor and race, unchanging in race idealism in their special race institution and race sympathy, and last but not least in their love for the race that we best serve in their lives, in their vision, sympathy, service, in their influence and their hope for God and humanity. They taught in grottoes, in caves, by the river banks, in hidden swamps, in open plains where the star baked beckoned them to come to the river. They were soon joined in hand and heart by others and the underground railroad was thus organized and a way of escape made possible for the enduring spirit of the race. They entered the Civil War and remained at their post of duty, which is the post of honor, until victory was declared for Israel's God and Abraham Lincoln's party and our race group; again, the great teacher of the race was then called to the Civil War and them and called them the United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten. So wonderful has been the growth of this magnificent and time honored institution that the sun today never sets on our juris We are not suffering so much for the want of intelligent and well educated men and women in our race nor so much from poverty. Our group in general intelligence, in religious fervor, rightness and godliness measures up to the full standard of ideal character mark; but the hindrance of advance and the undoing of many racial enterprises come through the fact that we are not trained as a racial group for team work in the world. The race has too many borrowed signals from other groups for safe and independent action in its own; too few of her own ideas to meet the great conflict in the world's present movements. The borrower must forcibly change the way he acts and all sorts and class of signs and symbols, we will forever enshave our coming group and their sins will fall on us, their destruction will be our enshrining, and their sins will be our enshrining. It is a false standard of judgment and reason to borrow signs and signals from your supposed enemies and then attempt to play the game of American men and women in all of its various aspects and win from others, but in the name of God and our group, let us have some of our own. Let our race group come to itself and thus display the same mind that is found in all the groups that count in the world's activities. Race consciousness and teamwork will bring to our group every desired change in the movement of the world's readjustment if we will only pull together. Paul in his great doctrine of the church and other relative relations said, "When I was a Child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child, but when I became a man, I wish to say unto you, my beloved brothers and sisters, when the race was a child, it, parrot-like, spake as child, taking anybody for its teacher; it understood as a child, accepting any creed and doctrine; it thought as a child, whatever it was taught to do; but when the race has become a man, we no longer are children to be petted and led, but men and women of full development and consciousness, prepared to take our place in the world, and work out the plan and work in the God and humanity, getting the same results as men of other groups. We must have the same kind of devotion, the same sincere regard for law and order as maintained by any other high class group in all the world Negro leaders must be loyal to Negro institutions, not only to our churches and universities, not only to our conferences, congresses, associations and Conventions, but to the Negro grocerymen, druggiers, physicians architects, lawyers, editors, periodicals, lecturers and other phases of life; and last but not least to the Negro fraternal societies whose origin and history are in the world, work out the plan and work in the God and humanity, who feel himself worthy of the confidence of the race, and who believe in the capability, progress and achievement of the race, no matter what ever else they belong to, find a way and a place into the great family of our own great fraternal groups. No year in all the years of the past has there been such a magnificent growth in every phase of our Order's activities. Men of all trades and professions are joining hands and hearts with us for a greater development of our race consciousness; and when we shall have joined fifteen million strong in America and an innumerable host in all the world with laws and laws, the world is more than ever the world's leader. Two race men are living by the hill. Wills are never found at the bottom of the hill. His way lacks the land his way is race will. And like our great Orde is found on the hill. Borrow, at the bottom, is gaging up. Counting, enlarging on gains in space. With the energy spent in counting the cost, he might have moved mountains or saved a trace.

The men who are the officers and promoters of the "EAGLE MUTUAL BENEFIT ASSOCIATION," have studied at length the different policies being issued and their provisions. For an instant: The Quarantine provision of our policy which allows 3 full weeks' benefits in case a member should become quarantined. This is a part of the modern insurance idea. Again, the hospital provision provides a 50 per cent increase in benefits where the member is confined in a licensed sanitarium. One can never tell when such a circumstance may develop in his life, so we have provided for you in such a time. Then, too, men of affairs and women likewise cannot afford to spend seven days in the bed to receive a small insurance payment; but we have provided a payment for you for the number of days you are disabled to attend to your daily task. This, however, is to be determined by a doctor's certificate. In every case of sickness or disability, the insured will find a provision to take care of his case.

The organization of the G Clio club seems to have marked the advent into our midst of a practical spirit of helpfulness in a way calculated to bring highly motivated students as stated, its purpose as stated, in the advancement of music among us and the help of those musically inclined who are not able on their own account to further their desires. Its first presentation last Monday night indicates the intention to fulfil purpose indeed and in fact it renders itself an appreciative audience a dramatic interpretation of "Coming thrue the Rye," the proceeds from which are to be used in furthering the musical and literary education of a young lady, soon to finish the High School, inhabitants and has proven her worth of the public. If the attendance and appreciation of the public is in any way indicative of its sentiment in regard to the offering and aim of this musical club, it stands squarely behind the club, it liberates it. We take pleasure in those responsible for the organization and direction of this club with We hope that its success may be sustained in the accomplishment of its mission. We hope that it may prove a valuable addition to the cultural life of our community, and spirit of practical helplessness may be made manifestifold among the people who may from time to time be intertwined by its offering. Criminal tendencies in children are highly condemned and speedily corrected that boorish children are "cute" in later years are apt to find that cuteness" was even then "acute". We are划心 to have other editions feel that, our editorial column is worth quoting from occasionally. But we feel that ethical dictates demand that they give us credit when thoughs. We expect to be exploited by those among ourselves who most worthy of condemnation is one who misleads his fellows for the benefit of the "other man". There no fool like an old fool, but some of the young ones are running the old ones a close sec- Often our readiness to criticize our fellows blinds us to good qualities of his which we might well imitate to our own greater success. Competition is the life of trade—it is also so, sometimes the death of profit. It has never hurt any man to stand by his convictions. OUR ROSY FUTURE As gloomy as present day surroundings may seem to us at first notice, a better day appears when we take an unbiased survey of the circumstances under which we now exist and compare them with those of a former day. Our opportunities for accomplishment were never so great nor has our ability ever had such an outlet before. We are proscribed and hemmed in in many ways, but as far as our financial and economic future are concerned, our chances for accomplishment are in our own hands. Privilege privileges may be some what curtailed but our labor is still in demand and more skilled laborers among us are finding ready employment to adequate compensation for their labor. There is no good reason for our laborers to suffer from unemployment. What we really need, more than we often are willing to admit, is that mental attitude in greater proportion which will allow us, by a conscientious improvement of all of those opportunities which are open to us, to better our economic status and therefrom draw that backing will prove a veritable power in relieving pressure of another sort. An unprejudiced observer can note in every community of ours, a lack of application of that knowledge of the value of the proper use of money and the suffering attendant upon such a lack. Not long ago a lecturer, who had visited many sections of Texas where our farmers had for four years received top prices for their products, was forced to comment upon their strained condition now that a slump in the market has struck them. A statement concerning their present condition causes one almost involuntarily to recall instances of their too prevalent folly in the handling of their money during the years of plenty. During those years, share croppers under good landlords bought auto-interiors, and they then rented them and gasoline for their cars and their landlord, generous though he may be, cannot fully finance them. Many farmers owning productive land, rented or sold their farms and moved to the city where rents and higher food prices soon ate up their capital and they now find themselves without work. We have before us the too frequent picture of the worker in the city who having saved his war time wages, spent them for an automobile instead of a home and his car may now be found parked outside the gate of his rented house, in need of tires which his present wage cannot guarantee to it. The facing of such evidences of our failure to live up to those which have been ours is probably very distasteful. But it is only when he has learning from failure in that we can hope to successfully improve those opportunities which are still ours. The South has its decided disadvantages but it also has its advantages. Before we can successfully measure up in the scale of architecture we can learn more fully to draw the line between the superficial and the material, casting our lot in favor of the substantial on every occasion. Our future is rosey only on condition that we fully realize this fact. We can more fully improve the opportunities which are ours. And it is our duty to ourselves to look for them and im- them fully. Thrift is one of our best guarantees of a rosy future. IT SHOULD BECOME A VALUABLE LESSON It would seem from recent dismatches that, since recent disclosures have given the general public proof positive that the claims recently made to the effect that Georgia led the United States in barbarism, the people of Georgia led by Governor Dorsey and the press of the state are exerting themselves in a hearty effort to remove those conditions which have caused her sister states (some of them equally as barbarous as Georgia) to point the finger of scorn at her in self defense. The additional indictments against the "murder farm" owner, the widespread investigation of neonage conditions and the indictment of nine of the Camillia moll members give fair proof of the presence of a desire for the removal of these barbarous conditions. Never before in the South have lynchers been placed under bonds so heavy as those imposed in the Camillia cases, nor is it often the case that Southern public sentiment so openly gives justice a free hand. But it now appears that Georgia and other Southern States as well are beginning to realize that which an unprejudiced view of their general conditions would have shown long ago, that unrestrained wandering to mob law and a studied neglect of education must be paid for in conditions disgraceful to an enlightened society. It has long been our contention that adequate education and freedom of opportunity for all men would result in a higher contribution of all, so situated, to the common good. We have maintained at the same time that lack of these things brought results exactly opposite. The barbarous occurrences of Georgia make Georgia the center of the disdain of all America. But it is by no means to be supposed that Georgia is the only state in which such conditions exist. Conditions in Georgia happened to be brought to light before those of any other state. In that particular only does Georgia differ from the several others of her sisters. Be that fact as it may, it would appear that the better thinkers of every state, where the possibility of such conditions is found to exist, would study well the shameful record of Georgia with a direct view to rendering them impossible in their midst. It seems to us the most useful purpose which these discoveries have served is an argument for a more educated and well directed citizenry whose public opinion would find it impossible to pander to the dictates of the lyncher or exact such contemptible toll from helpless and ignorant laborers. While we denounce the fact that the spirit ofettering Georgia's condition did not effectively manifest itself until such an occasion as use, there is room for the sincerity with which it is now being applied.

This splendid building, equipped as it is with baths, a reading room, dining floor and space which may be used to house the Day Nursery will an island of its maintenance are compounded of others to the various Negro club and social organizations an opportunity for centralization and sympathetic co-operation so far un-enabled in our civic life. We feel that it should be so considered. It has been erected for our use at public expense. It will be maintained in the same way. The fact of its establishment removes one item of hindrance to club co-operation which has for a long time been offered as the reason for the lack of effective co-operation for their mutual well being, the lack of a central place. We hope that heads and members of various organizations of the city may speedily catch the vision of the opportunity for effective community service which this house offers and bend to the support of the activities which it may foster with hearty good will. It is proof on the part of the city administration, of the fact that the "Spirit of Dallas" includes all of Dallas. It shows that it is in reality driving to make Dallas a city, all of whose inhabitants be eager to help in its continued progress because from it they can be a model of civic improvement to which their presence in it entitles them. It would seem to us that the concrete evidences of good will toward and interest in us which we are able to see and enjoy should be evidence enough that we are truly in a city of friends whose arrests, when they occur, are not traceable to a narrow and prejudiced spirit.

Georgia, an object Less bitterly excoriates Georgia for the Southern States by revoiling Bobbieolese bounty grafting, recently it is are appearing from day to day detected in the following comment as to become a monstrosity, threat to the level of such semi-barrhouses consideration, to North Carolina Georgia has originally composed North Carolina. What Georgia has done, No now low she falls, it is in our primary education, as in Georgia has made justice, and trust to the mackerel has done; let us grow insecurities has done, and we shall report that it has occurred in Georgia. Georgia is not at all surrounded in the mobs are two vices to the not altogether free of them. Very North Carolinian who loves God has given him to purify the mouth of hell." coast to coast through the North news stories, editors and journalists have been brought to light in conspiracy of Necess and the Negroes in their fire of criticism and denial UPON THE SOUTH. States of the South resent this. The press of the country for Georgia. the country is pointing the finger DEFENSE our sister States of North Georgia at our country for the decent servant insist upon a general clearing up the existence of which is bringing into disrepute. Under the caption, "Georgia as an Object Lesson." The Greenbearson (N.C.) Daily News bitterly exorciates Georgia for the discredit that has been heaped upon the Southern States by revolting reports of crime, murder, poignage and wholesale bounty graft, recently enamoring from this State. Similar editorials are appearing from day to day in other Southern newspapers, all reflected in the following comment from The Greenbearson News. "Georgia threatens to become a monstrosity, threatens to derogate from her proud position as one of the American States in the very forefront of civilization and sink to the level of such sent-abarbonous countries as Albanian and Bulgaria. "But the appalling consideration, to North Carolinaians, is the unquestionable fact that Georgia was originally composed of the same sort of people as North Carolina. What Georgia has done, North Carolina is capable of. No matter how low she falls, it is in our makeup to plunge as far. Let us neglect popular education, as Georgia has done; let us make a sense of the situation, as Georgia has done; let us mark the poorest and the poorest, as Georgia has done; let us grow insolent in our own ignorance and conceit, as Georgia has done, and we shall reproduce in North Carolina every horror that has occurred in Georgia." "Leaving the common people and the Negroes in gross ignorance and trucking to the passions of the mob are two vices that will destroy any State. North Carolina is not altogether free of them, and the first, the supreme duty, of every North Carolinaian who loves his State is to use every remedy that God has given him to purify the atmosphere of these bodies." Newspapers from coast to coast, throughout the North, East and West, are daily printing news stories, editorials and cartoons bearing upon the atrocities that have been brought to light in connection with peonage and the wholesale murders of Negroes in Jasper and Newton Counties; but they do not center their fire of criticism and denunciation upon Georgia and the South, other states of the South resent this. They rehearsely seem being stigmatized by the press of the country for conditions which they say apply only to Georgia. In other words, the country is pointing the finger of scorn at "the South," and in SELF DEFENSE our sister States of the South are pointing the finger of scorn at Georgia. Surely, surely, it is high time for the decent sentiment of Georgia to assert itself and to 'insist upon a general clearing up of any uny and disgraceful act of violence which is bringing not only the State, but the whole State, into disrepute. THRILLS. toddling youngsters around our daus or the coming of a wonderful and to course a wawerly aftir on edge and a wonderful thrill Now that we are men and women dislusions we often ask oursive When we were toddling youngsters around our mother's knee, the mention of Santa Claus or the coming of a wonderful circus would cause our blood to tingle and to course more swiftly through our veins; our nerves would be set on edge and a wonderful thrill would ring through our puerile bodies. Now that we are men and women and time has brought to us its inevitable disillusions we often ask ourselves if any thrills are left? To those who hail from the Southern States the memory still prevails when they would throw up their hats and shout to the tune of "I Wish I Was in Dixie," by the lynchers rope and the bonfire of human flesh and blood of hell and its anthems stir up the smoldering embers of bake but produce no thrills. When Cold Glory is unfurled to the breeze and as we uncover to the tune of "Battle Hymn of the Republic" or to the "Stars and Stripes Forever," patriotism and loyalty struggle with various impulses but the spontaneous thrilla which once quickened our blood does not come. The thought of Jm Crow armies, the Klu Kux, riots and insults drive down the thrilla and bring up the tears of bitterness. Still this is our native land and our souls are not dead. The Frenchman is carved into the seventh heaven of joy as the first note of the Marseles is sounded and as he hurts "Vive la France" from open lips, we envy him. As the englishman pulls at his hair and lifts up his head when the British bands strike up "Rite Britannia, Rule the Waves," and "Oedipus the King," his ecstasies run wild. The thrilla is set over even those who cramped and trampled, thrilla when it listens to the "Watch on the Rhine." Is every thrill in the heart of the American black man forever submerged? is this infant race eternally destined to morbidity and sordidness? We have not yet leaned towards the Cynics and Stoics. Hope is not yet destroyed. Thrills slumber but they will awaken, they will again awaken to the old tunes but it is to the new tunes that they will convulse. It will be to the tunes of race pride and race achievements. With the "eye of the mind" let us glimpse at a colossal sky scraper lifting its skins done in the heavens. Let us climb to its observation towers and look down upon humanities trailing millions. Then let us realize that it was our own handcraft and our finance that raised the buildings of our city, and we are many more of such skiers and creators. What man of black ancestors would not thrill? Our race pride will be commented by our accomplishments. We shall achieve because the desire is present and the means are within our grasp. The black man's industrial and economic prowess must give him the standard pride from which thrills arise and emanate. As we develop our institutions, we wean ourselves from our pale-faced overloads and become more self-sustaining, then unto us will firmer recognition be given. The laws of America place a higher premium upon property than they do upon human life. Our property must be increased. It is a recognized fact that a man must make his interests weigh enough to be considered. It would be inconvenient for the American white man to place the black man upon an equal footing with himself. If however, the interest of the black man happened to outweigh the inconvenience of his white brother his claims would be considered. The spirit of the new life is upon us. Our next great thrill will be the black man upon his still thrill. The dreamer may dream his dreams and they may never come true but the of the vision brings forth hope and courage. We will thrill again and the world will thrill with us—Chicago Whip. INVEST YOUR ROLL-DON'T CARRY IT. "Hi-jackers" and "Stick-up-men" will quit their profession promptly when it fails to pay. That day will be here when we as a people abandon the stupid but deep robed habit of "carrying a roll." As it is, the average highwayman is making pretty safe bet that he will be paid for this trouble if he commands any chance passer-by to "stick-en-up." All the possible victims have to do is to put their money to work for them and the nation instead of fingering it in their pocket; they will not only avoid loss of their money, but they will still have to bear their roll. If they will, put their money where it will not only be safe, but earn them interest, as well as promote the welfare of the nation. The full pocket is usually overburden by 'a dense cannon. Otherwise the dollars would be at work. Carry a dollar in your pocket a year and you block your own interests. In circulation it will turn $64.00 worth of trade in a year, and come back bringing you several cents if you have sense enough to invest in Government Savings Securities. Don't think just because you have only a few dollars you should ing them as a constant invitation to slugging highwaymen. You can invest them in perfectly secure securities with tax exemptions, neither of which would be worth the postmasterSafe. Uncle Sam has never defaulted or delayed a moment paying his debts, every penny you put in and interest too, all without having to hunt up a lawyer when you NEED your cash? Two men occupying adjoining offices started home together. They were robbed on the way. Johnson grins and Wilson groans every time they think about it. It does not require a Sherlock Holmes to tell which had the rolling career habit. Now both know the wisdom of making money work. Invest in Government Savings Securities; you "lead us not into temptation." You save both your health and your roll-Government Savings Release. as it is just at the close of his administration, gives us opportunity to express our appreciation of his evenhanded consideration of civic affairs as they have affected us. And while he may be succeeded by a Mayor, no less diligent in his government of all Dallas, there can be no doubt that our people as an integral part of the city deserve our respect. We hold his beliefs and his conscientious adherence to his ideas of right. Dallas Express Corner Uz Mrs. A. H. Dyson. The insertion is often made that days of the dreamer are past; that those of the dreamer are present; that those of the dreamer are men and woman, who have not the time nor the inclination to dream dreams and see visions as that these are days of work and that these are days of life. Pew dreamed old chivalry and enlightenment, their ladies, of the pipes of Pan or to entrust Ulysses. Pew dreamed not to be entrusted with verses which is written today breathes upon Columbus dreamed of a new world, barred upon his voyages of discovery, was content to be known as such as he be harmsed; and Fidia that the ocean would be harmsed; and Fidia that the human voice could be reproduced that the air could transmit sound that they have given in the world probably would never have come to pass. The architecture and symmetrical in prose of some man who saw it in his mind a giant locomotive, a majestic bridge sailing through the air, were made to seem long before the details were re-examined. It is the dreams of the man and the woman who strive to accomplish, that give them strength to strive for the goal. Perhaps it may never be reached, the dream gives the hope of being achieved.

THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, AFRICOL 30, 1921 LARGE EARNINGS OF A NEGRO CLUB HOF. A Hampion graduate writes in the current issue of the Southern Worker. "My first pig club boy was Charles Lightner, a colored boy of Powell County, who was a slave and when he began club work, his first project was a pig, given him by his mother. He raised it and sold it for $5. In 1919 he was the first to be enrolled in the corn club. He prepared it as instructed. His crop was twenty-five bushels, ten bushels. Last year he prepared his acre early for corn, deep耕 and buried it. He selected his seed and planted it about May 20. It came up and made a seeded corn. At times, he produced thirty-five bushels on his acre and exhibited ten ears at the State Fair. He made a corn acre of corn he had a plot of tobacco on which he made four hundred "He now has his corn acre seeded to cotton clover for soil improvement. He will plant it in the farm. The net proceeds of the crop this year will amount to about $100,000. He has tended the trees and his pig that I succeeded in setting a hundred boys enrolled in the school." COMPETITOR ADDS NEW FEATURE Pittsburgh, Pa., April 28—1's Competitor has added a new feature. The April number devoted three pages to a digest of editorial comment by leading Negro papers on the change of administration. The showing was commendable and The Competitor deserves credit for bringing to the people in this attractive way the pith of the editorial expression of so many of our papers. Now, the May issue comes forward with selected editorials from the Colored press on the Williams' Murder-Farm and Peonage in Georgia. Mr. Walter S. Buchanan, who edits this part of The Competitor, sought to show that the Colored press is not rabid and revengeful, but that it entails patience and dependence upon law and order. As Mr. Parcanan well says, "The white press might learn a good lesson from the fact that the Colored papers never play up lynchings and other horrible crimes of the stronger race against the weaker. In a way to make the Colored people bitter and revengeful." The Competitor has reduced its news stand price from 25 cents to 20 cents per copy. In doing this it has followed the downward trend of prices, as have several of the white magazines. CARD OF THANKS. Mrs. L. C.

NEGROES TO FIGHT IF CIVIL RIGHTS BILL IS DEFEATED Harrisburg, Pa. April 28—Fearless trickery that Republican leaders have used to undermine promises, supporters of the Ashbury Equal Rights Bill of at least 10 states, and threats of political repression against lawmakers who vote against the bill, has been the greatest throng that has attested to a hearing this season. Hundreds of white men and women filled the call for the state and a great number of white men and women filled the call for the state and the aides, rear and even the front of the chaucher. Cheers and hives were on the reserve with which the bill has previously been discussed and agreed upon. Warning From Ashbury. Representatives Ashbury, author of "bill," warned the state of "bill," and laced it sharply. Even though for your protective taint even though it shut us out of the mills. We voted with you and did not ask. If this bill is not put down, we will vote for ours. The Negroes of Pennsylvania are united, a sodal Pressed for an explanation of his threats by Senator Baird, Allegheny, Annapolis, and Auburn, Americans are urging to be for the people who are who we are, of us, regardless of party or faction. "Matter with Republican Pennsylvania" assidus Mrs. Wiley Layton, Philadelphia. "Has the party forgotten its platform? We are not going to forget the name of the Grand Old Party, to pass this bill." Hitchcock, impatiently asked that professions about toilities be dropped. "Let us make ourselves clear, be clear," he said. "We can make us forget our friends. The names of the men who vote for the bill will be engraved indelibly in this state. We can make the state. No man who voices against it will return to the legislature with the aid of our votes. We will make the most of it. We owe everything to our friends and will pay us we owe nothing to our enemies and we will pay us." PUBLIC FORUM. WHY MARRIAGES ARE OFFEN FAILURES. (Continued from issue of April 9.) When people are unseemly pooled, such becomes disatisfied with the lack of a right of former viruses they have 'a each other. Very often they become unhappy in vain to fill the aching void in their lives, become hungry for bread they have not, and their mercur cup of love and contentment they long to find. In forbidden paths, which drag men and women down to terrible depths, where they lose their sense of honor and self-worth, all that's merced. Men and women who marry should have the same sense of honor and self-worth as to the extent, that they can reason saneely and reach an agreement upon If even you'd, they will always find a way to agree; if not, they can never agree, because of their different ideas and virtue. Oil and water can not mix, even if they are in the same container, they are separate and apart from each other. So it is with people of different nature and ideas. For instance: I have a friend who lives a miserable life. I found him once in his home, with red and swollen eyes, with tears coursing down his bronze cheeks. He has a beautiful home, a fine library, musical instruments, pets and flowers, everything's seemed to me to make one happy. But he was not happy. He had more than reached the fifty year mark. He had never been to school or college. He was not cultured or refined. His finer beings had not been developed. He is only a plain man with a great soul. But somewhere in the world, he has a young and beautiful wife, who did not understand. She was educated, and her finer tendencies had been developed. She loves society, he does not. She likes all the social games of this age; he does not. She likes to go and mingle with her friends; he does not. But she was captured because of his wealth and beautiful surroundings. She saw only his ability to spend for her and fill her fond desires for that which could be bought with money. After they were married a short while, she awoke and saw the man as he was, then it was that she as filled with awe. Their ideas were all different. He could not understand her young heart, mind and desires. She could not understand his set and selfish eyes. The time came when they could no longer agree. The result was, that somewhere in this old world, she roams without the protection of a husband of the comforts of a well equipped home called her own. And somewhere today in that lonely home my friend gets gazing through the windows of his sad soul, with a hope that she will some day return, and, that they both will understand. One day I was talking to my friend and he brought from his coat pocket, and he brought from his envelope; from it, he folded something gently, and with tear blurred he looked at me. I was in the middle of the table, the bride, and he handed me a note which she left upon the table when she went away from the room and breathed a prayer, that, some day she would return to him, and read the note, it closed with these good, true and brave; you have been good, true and brave; you have been unhappy I must go—1 hear a voice you can not hear, which bites me hard, and not see, which becomes me away. I know you can't understand that, many portrays the great throng of the unequally yoked and the multiplied thousands of traceles there are, and human hearts. Sweet, affectionate, thoughtful, sympathetic, and cultured people can not, and will never be happy content with what has been formed, nurtured and nurtured. people ought to seek to know each other better. Learn their ideas of living at home and abroad. Try to be as smart as possible, but never marry unless you know whether or not your life will fit. If people will follow this course divorce will be no so prevalent and marriage will be made better, and God will be glorified through the home. A. W. WILSON 261 Concord, Texas.

New Orleans, La., April 28—Nerocarpen carpenter labor in New Orleans will work for a "reasonable wage" to stimulate the building boom, according to J. D. Hagans, Nerocarpen carpenter. Nerocarpen carpeters recently dismissed from the local carpenters' union during the strike on the Hibernia bank building, declined to stipulate any definite wage scale at which the Colored carpenters would work, but refused to pay their wage and intimated that some classes of work would be done for 75 cents an hour and some for less. He reached at a meeting of 12 leaders of the Colored carpenters, when a resolution embodied the "reasonable wage" decided definitely to grow all union affiliation. He says the action of the great majority of non-union Nerocarpen carpeters is "there is a big building boom in New Orleans and the Negro carpenters are willing to do their share," said Mr. Hagans. The reasonable wage scale is 90 cents an hour. SCHOOL FOUNDED FOR COLORED IN OBJECT OF DRIVE.

The Star wrote to the Farmers' Union, your editorial in The Star of April 8. under the heading of "The Law as a Solution." Your comments on the law and the practice of the evil is as broad and pointed as any one could wish, and there would be no further occasion for remarks if I was not convinced that even the best informed of the people in the North have no idea how prevalent this institution is in most of the southern states. I know it has been in vogue in North and South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas for a score or more years, and that the people both practiced and approved of it, nor did they really know they were violatine—no law. The were not guilty of the hereous offenses charged to Williams and his sons but they practiced the crime in some form or other in violation of the federal law. In these states larceny is made a crime which, on conviction carries the penalty of disfranchisement and incarceration in the penitentiary. The value of the article is less does not matter. It may be an old shirt a chicken, a hat, or horse and wagon. The law was made to find an excuse to disfranchise as many Negroes as possible, and it is a boy of twelve was held for stealing even a melon he was never allowed.

Some farmer would come forward and the prisoner was said and warned that he would be forced to spend three days in the penitentiary. The culprit, of course, gladly accepted the order, and the prisoner were made happy with the thoughts that he had escaped the horrors of the prison and the denial of all rights by the returned convicts, who told of beatiness for the most trivial offences and the denial of all rights by The varrancy laws are instruments that send only Colored men to peonage. No strange Colored man is allowed to run at large more than ten days unless he has applied for a so-and-it matters not how much money he has upon his person. In fact, if he has a good sum it militates against him, as he is sure to be suspected as a thief and get a longer sentence to bondare, and there is no chance of his paying a fine and escaping sentence. No white man is considered a vagrant if he remains idle for months or years, so that he refrains from committing any other offense. Another cause of peonage is the landlord and tenant acts of that section and the fact that most of the farm laborers are croppers. This means that they work for a certain part of the crop, and not for wages. The landowner furnishes the horsepower tools and other things needed and sees to it that the cropper is furnished provisions from his commissary or grocer of his selection. The price of supplies is exorbitant so that at the end of the year the laborer finds himself in debt, ever after he has received his share of the crop. He finds he cannot leave his employer while in his debt, though he receives brutal treatment and if he does his employer will not notice, forbidden any one to harper or hire said person and in some instances will have him arrested and returned to the farm. Should the laborer die his wife and children cannot move away until the debt is exceeded, and in this manner many are held in bondage from year to year. The exodus of the Colored laborers from the south during the world war and the increase in lawlessness in the North are largely a result of these conditions, as this element, that had never known what freedom meant, could not be restrained when they found they were masters of their own will, and in their ignorance committed the most inconceivable acts. I have gone fully into this matter that those who read may know that Williams was right when he said that he might be technically guilty, but, if so, most of the farmers of Georgia were in the same predicament and I add that a great majority of the farmers in the southern states mentioned are guilty of neonage, but not of the horrible murders of which he has been convicted. I trust this case may be the cause of stamping out the entire evil, for it is better that a criminals be confined in the state prison than that we have this diabolical practice disgrace our fair land. I am a southern man and write of facts that I know and have witnessed. M. N. CORBETT EASTERN SHORE METHODISTS SEEK FEDERAL AUD TO HAVE POT PUT TO LYNCHING.

The advent of the "Eagle Mutual Benefit Association in the field of insurance, is a new rung in the ladder of "racial progress". It is the embodiment of an idea intended to integrate each member our racial group. The employment of race men and women, affording them that kind of employment which is not to the old idea that "we are hewers of wood and drawers of water," but honorable employment wherein every institution and aspirations for higher achievements can have full encouragement and their ideals reach The purpose of the "Eagle Mutual Benefit Association" is to provide substantial protection for the men and death. The men who are promoting this association are conscious of the fact that the earning capacity of our men is not because of like of ability in most instances, but prescription and treatment, not because of like of ability in cumulate is limited.

It declares the regulation of rents and housing to be a legitimate exercise of police power. It gave validity to declarations in the District act that rental property is "affected with public interest" and that unfair and unreasonable rents and conditions surrounding renting are contrary to public policy.

At 8:00 p. m., our pastor came before us again with a wonderful message from Rev. 3:10, "Behold I stand at your door and knock. If any man her my voice and open up, I will come in and up with him, and he with Me." A very spiritual meeting followed the sermon, having received one convert, everyone was made to rejoice over the soul, as it had been lost so long ago. Our revival which will continue the next week is progressing fine. We are ready to welcome 're we close, and invite everybody to come and be present with us, particularly the ministers from the vow. We are ready to welcome 're we operate, as it is understood that where there is union, there is there is union, certainly come and be with you. RESOLUTION In the midst of life is death and the first link in our chain has been broken. In as much as our Father in Heaven has seen fit to visit our ranks and take from us one of our most faithful members in the person of Mrs. Lucile Kirkman and Whereas we deeply deplore our loss, we feel that God knows best and our loss is Heaven's gain. We loved her dearly but Angels loved her more; and her spirit now is with them; on that celestial shore. We know that the husband has lost a loving and dutiful wife; the family a devoted daughter and sister and the club, a most faithful and trustworthy member, so we can only commend her spirit to the God who gave it and strive to meet her in Heaven where parting is no more. We say to the dear husband, father, mother, sisters and other relatives to weep not for dear Lucile for she is better off than we. She has gone to the land where they have no tears, sickness or sorrow. The Father has taken her out of all misery and suffering and all is now sunshine and pleasure with her. We all loved her for her patience, faithfulness and sunny disposition and our hearts are deeply pained as we say these parting words, but we know that it is only for a short while and not forever. In as much as we realize that we cannot keep her up Be it Resolved that we bow our heads in humble submission to him who has given us the gift of live that in that Great Day, we shall meet her and clasp hands with her. Be it Resolved, that we, the members of the Kolonial Klub, extend to each of the bereaved family the love and say to you to trust in God and all will be well with you for all bereaved family. Be it heavy for Him to make us able to bear. We know the pain and the heartache of giving her up for us. Be it heavy for you in this dark hour of your life. Be it further Resolved that a copy of these resolutions be given the bereaved family, a copy spread to the local paper for publication. Sorrowfully submitted. LTD.

They are holding their place with an upward step. Watch them—they are in a great place. We are their conquering drums and steps of the gallant members as they go forth to edifice, all glory to Rev.

(Bv A. N. P.) New York City has set the pace for "direct action" that may well be followed by the rest of the country, and in keeping with the urgent suggestion of the new government's proposed action, a committee representing the famous St. Mark's Lycum and allied organizations called upon Senators Calderon and Walserwitt to "act upon the public interest." The "action" is certain direct action on their attitude on lynchine and other subjects of American justice. They carried with them, unknown to the public, the public's consent to the grantor, who took a renown of the entire conversation, and the same is reported at a gigantic mass meeting held in St. Mark's Methodist Episcopal Church. The public's consent is not, therefore, at the meeting. The Committee, chaired by John E. Robinson, chair of the Committee, is also engaged in Holloway, with Miss Fessie Darden as Stenographer. They also called upon Senator McCormick and Representative L. Dyer addressed a meeting under the auspices of the N. A. A. C. P. the audience tax-for the capacity of Howard theater and the "convenience" of lynching and the conditions of penning and the South, saying that "nothing that happened in the world was as bad as the South." The "action" is the other speaker. President Grimke presided. The oldest Colored religious organization in the District of Columbia was St. John Methodist Encyclopaedic Church, organized in 1816, Rev. Albert J. Mitchell is the present pastor, and the "action" is the community-led organization of the community, encouraging business and industrial enterprise, and the membership also conducts a sepultious, The church is a "soul" of St. John and Dumbarton's Hon. Thomas W. Fleming, of Cleveland, has informed the Associated Negro Press, that he has never entered into an alliance or plan with the United States. He has also been, whereby it was to be understood that one was to look after state matters and the other national matters. Mr Fleming is a member of the City of Cleveland and has been mentioned several times in the Notes with the post of Minister to Haiti. He is an "original Harding man" and is one of the unquestioned leaders in Ohio in matters political and civic. In discussion that matter of the protests of certain white women against the appointment of a Colored Register of the Treasury, one of the highest-revered men in the United States, he is a Representative of The Associated Negro Press: "You don't suppose anyone is going to say any attention to that do you?" That ought to be enlightening. Hon. Richard N. Elliott, "number of Congress from the Sixth District of Lodice, and a resident of Conneryville, is unalterably opposed to lynch-up the State. He is serving his law against it. He is serving his third term in Congress, and is a close personal friend of President Harding. He is held in highest esteem by the United States. He is also the residence of Hon. Cornelius N. Richardson, at Richmond. The sixth district is the home of Senator James E. Watson, at Rushville, and the United States House of Representatives. He is also the residence of Hon. Cornelius N. Richardson, at Rushville, and the United States House of Representatives. He is also the resident of the United States House of Representatives. He is also the resident of the United States House of Representatives. Rumor persists, in the air of the capital, that Hon. Charles W. A. Anderson is again being considered for the important post of Collector of the Port of New York. He has been known to say that he seeks nothing, neverothiness he seems to have somer very energetic advocates. In the matter of appointments there has become a bit of anxiety, but before the ink in this is cold, the President any have sent the name of the more Colored statesmen to the Senate for confirmation. There will be a goooly number of Colored appointments and while there may be protests from Democrats, careful investigation among Republican senators by the Associated Negro Press discloses the fact that once the men are named by President Harding, they will be readily contrived. The Senate does not to be in a frame of mind to dilly-dallying on the principles of justice. It is a delightful prespective, according to those who are viewing the landscape from the Washington monument. SUCCESSFUL PRINCIPAL CLOSES （By A. N. P.） *U.S. Institute, Miss. April 28—William H.

April 28—An attorney charged with the death of Charles Hart, Baltimore, the Negro allied to have made a conviction. Cotterville, sixteen years old, a few months before the trial, grand Ursor announced the opinion of the judge that Doreyra second trial, the first conviction and sentence to death in his conviction and sentence to death in his conviction was granted by the court, the grounds on considerable doubt as to the guilt of the case was moved to this court. When the decision was made, M. R. Tweedale, brother of the girl, adopted from his chair beside his sister, and dashed for Dorsey. Before the offer, he was a member of the Committee, to which he had struck the man, causing the blood to flow from his cheek. Mr. R. W. Rogers, Richmond, Va., sister of the complainant, joined in the attack, throwing a water glass at Dorsey, who was not at the time. He was not at the time for protection. The glass missed Dorsey and struck Court Clerk Eli G. Haugh. The courtroom spectators became ag exalted mob, but they were quieted when Judge Erever walked to the house. He was not at the time, announced that the life of the prisoner would be protected. In the meantime Dorsey was whisked from the courthouse and rushed in an automobile, to the county jail. The courtroom spectators became the Negro had left the courtroom the crowd followed, some living chase in automobiles. At the fall pursuit was abandoned. All during the following evening crowds of men gathered on the courthouse. The crowd was a常式警力 of the prisoner's presence in Frederick county. Dorsey left the city shortly after the trial and was said to have headed for Washington or Virginia. Miss Tweedale took no part in the decision. He was not at the time announced the verdict of "not guilty" she suddenly arose and in a hysterical manner cried: "He's guilty!" I know he's guilty. She collapsed weeping. The next instant her brother was killed. He was not at the time, as he displayed of guns. The officers used none, in quieting the courtroom. KU KLUX RIDE IN SUREVEPORT 300 or 400 White-robed Figures Disappear Suddenly, Silently, Shreveport, April 28—Coming from somewhere in the general direction of the Mississippi river and involving in the general direction of the Pacific ocean, three or four hundred whiterobed figures appeared suddenly in Texas street at 8 o'clock Saturday night, and marched west; disappearing as suddenly and silently as they came. Wearing tall conical hats with a red tassel at the tip and with their entire head and face hidden by their strange headgear, it was impossible to identify anyone, they all looked alike. There was no music nor anything to give warning of their coming only one of the figures at the head of the procession carried a floral cross. This, with the cross and circle on the left breast of their long, white robes, identified them as members of the Ku Klux Klan, a branch of which was formed here several weeks ago. The second figure, who was in direct contrast to the silence of the marchers. Much inquiring comment was heard on all sides, everybody asking the what and the why of the parade, and trying to identify some of the marchers by their height and manner of walking. But the masked hats and long robes effectively prevented success in this direction. FLASHES FROM HERE AND THERE (By A. N. P.) Chicago, April Grover C. Redding and Oscar McGavick will not die on the gallows this week. Reprises until June 24 have been granted by Governor Len Small to allow attorneys time to take the cases to the Supreme Court. This action was taken by the executive upon unanimous recommendation of the board of pardons. All arrangements for the hangings had been completed by Jaller Lee McGavick and John Gundry. The Negroes were given the burden of murdering a sailor during the "Abyssinian" pilot last summer, roused all the prisoners in the jail with their singing when they learned that they were not to die on the sailor, as they were not to die on the sailor, as he attempted to prevent them burning a U.S. flag last summer.
