Colored People Should Leave Those Sections Where They Are Oppressed. These sections where they are oppressed, the duty of Colored people whereever opportunity offers to leave those sections where lynching and racial insurrection with impunity. I know quite definitely the differences that place black men in Northern sections, but these difficulties that black men are likely to experience in these sections, but these difficulties are inconsequential when compared with white men and unruthenized citizenship.

Gary, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the University, a heated communication was sent him by Mr. John M.

Gibbs' letter, Doctor Scott has sent the follow reply:
Letter
Washington, D. C., April 24, 1923
Mr. John M. Gibba,
Sec-Treas.,
The North Carolina Pine Assn.,
1203 National Bank of Commerce Bldg.,
Norfolk, Va.
Dear Sir,
write to acknowledge receipt of your letter of April 19th. I fear from the tenor of your communication that you must not have read my complete telegram but only a portion thereof. I therefore send you herewith a copy of said telegram that you may more fully in-form yourself of just what I said to Judge Gary.
Refuses Suggestion He Is Not Family
I evidently you rest under the misapprehension that I am, as you state, "unfamiliar with Southern conditions." You are probably not informed of the fact that I am a Southerner who has spent most of his life in the South, having been born in Texas where for a number of years I conducted a newspaper, and of years having served for 22 years in the South. I have read the House of the South as Secretary to the late Booker T. Washington and of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. I also served for twenty-one years as Secretary of the National Negro Business League. I am therefore venturing to suggest that I have a fairly accurate knowledge of Southern conditions.
I understand the Commission for International Peace commissioned me to make a study of the whole program of Negro migration during the war. The conclusions of that study are set forth in a publication very widely distributed by that organization. I would venture to call the conclusions of that Study to your attention.
[FR Doc. 2005-10001]
I approached the study of Negro migration in no. 29, spirit of hostility.

Washington, D. C. May 5, 5—A general movement of southern Negro farmers to northern industrial areas is the survey of southern farming district made by the United States Department of Agriculture, figures recently issued showing additional light on farm population figures recently issued. Movement from farms to towns and cities, of $24,000 persons including the South Atlantic State in 1932. High industrial wages is given the chief reason for the reported increase in worker conditions last year which made cotton growing unprofitable for a number of Negro farmers, unreal among returning Negro farmers, more attractive living conditions away from farms during and after the contract labor system are given as contributory causes. The average per cent or 23,000 persons of the total number of Negro farm hands or laborers in the past 12 months, the report shows. The movement goes on although crops for the present season are not being grown, the document of average is reported, and the labor shortage is expected to be a major factor in this season. The situation in Georgia is much worse than is generally the case.

has never hosted the white feather, neither has it been disfigured by the yellow streak. It is not afflicted with the flamel mouth. It is a plain, every day, sunnable, conservative newspaper, which trim no sail to catch the pasing breeze; flies no doubled flag: It professes a patriotism as broad as our own. It has covered pacing-waves all the territory occupied by the human race. This is pretty high ground, but we live on it and are propping. Up and stand with us. This ground its baby.
W. E. KING.
PRACTISING AND PREACHING.
The public program and banquet tendered by the local business league to the people of Dallas has taken two reasons. First, there was a larger number of people present than usual on a similar occasion. The auditorium of St. John Church was comfortably filled by them and in them, the audience was thrilled by the threatening weather they stayed, listening appreciatively, tilted their heads, and the character of the messages delivered by the various speakers differed so much from what has been the usual pattern of meetings as to elicit much serious comment. The speeches of Lawyer Wells, H. H. S. and J. A. Markle were marked for their frankness and accuracy in diagnosing the situation in our city, should bear fruit. Second, the public program was on the part of the general public in the determination of the business men to increase the financial status of the community.
These speakers without exception scored the laxness of the so called "business concerns conducted by what they have preached. They expressed the belief that the failure of the business concerns conducted by what they have preached and grow was due primarily to the failure of those who were preached, example, to step out boldly and unreservedly and guarantee this growth. The speeches were not emotional. The speeches were full of facts and common sense. They gave much food and advice to the students should lead to more concert action on the part of laymen to help off bigger and better businesses. It is time that Dallas waked up and bestowed herself in this regard. She did not give up for which we are not responsible in poor satisfaction. Consentment is the amount to nothing more than indifference is time that our people wake up to the fact that they are bead and the Cause and make definite effort to send the damage done by negativity.
There is no better means of spreading a sentiment than a frank admission than frank admission than high sounding speeches are given the most important and respectful hearings. Nearly 30,000 people agreed upon and worked toward a plan of fit for the job, especially situated as are our people here in a Metropolis which so speaks, "lifted itself by its own innovation from a hamlet to a metropolis. Nothing can so quickly make us feel comfortable and insecure and command the aspect of their neighbors as successful contribution to the commercial economy. From business projects which thrive and a grow do people buy pieces of decent employment for them and proper. Stch projects result only from course, initiative and hard work for them. They can come by chance. We are pleased may grids must provide it and to this rate there must be no exceptions.

The French Government is supporting a school of Fine Arts at Fontainebleau and will welcome to it 100 American students. The selection of these students was left to a committee of American Artists. A Negro girl made application to the committee. Her name is Augusta Savage. She is a native of Florida who moved to New York.
The committee refused her application and returned her deposit giving as a reason that "many of the students are Southerners and the Negro girl would have to be in close association with them on the ship and in the school." The Negro, an active member of The Ethical Culture Society will visit Europe and present the claims of this young lady to the French Government.
What will be the result?
It cannot be argued that the young lady does or does not have artistic ability. But it can be argued that the presentation of her case to the French government will present to France and to Europe a view of American color prejudice which will not improve the French idea of American democracy. Whether they are right or not, Frenchmen do not believe in such prejudice. They prove it by their recognition of their Colored subjects of ability.
Eventually by such incidents as these the world will come to know the real American soul. Complete knowledge of that soul may not be beneficial to the American reputation. Who knows?
SLOW CHURCH GROWTH.
In a recent gathering of ministers Dr. I. Garland Penn gave out figures showing that the outlook for the Negro church of the future is by no means as bright as might be imagined. There are 4,800,000 members of Negro churches in America but only 2,250,000 Sunday School children. There are only 910 Negro students in 36 theological institutions. With the exception of Sunday school pupils as church members our churches face a diminution in numbers in the future which should cause concern. That only 910 students are preparing for the ministry indicates a death of pastors in the future. Now there are about 37,000.
What is wrong?
Do our ministers now show so much interest in the taking of collections and the building of churches that they are neglecting the Sunday schools from which the church must be constantly fed?
Has the conception of the ministry fallen so low that our young men find in it no challenge to service?
These questions are worthy of consideration for it is true that the older and highly respected type of Negro minister is not so frequently seen as heretofore. We had been accustomed to looking upon him as the rule. Now in some sections we see in this type the exception.
We do not believe that the fault, if such really exists, is to be found with the public. It is as responsive as it has ever been. It appears rather that the failure of the church to hold the most important items of present day parishes is due to the fact that its representatives, as a class, are not capable of commanding their respect.
Men still strive for better lives. Men still believe in the Saving Grace of Jesus Christ. But they do not believe that men less intelligent, less capable, less moral than themselves can lead them into this better life.
Our church life is not the potent force which it once was. Why?
EMMETT SCOTT MAKES PLEA FOR NEGRO LABOR.
If the suggestion of Dr. Emmett to Judge Gary contained in the telegram which was made public last week is headed, the future of the Negro laborer in America will be made measurably brighter and he will take his place regularly in the great industrial scheme from which he has hitherto, by one means or another, been barred as a class. Judge Gary in an Associated Press dispatch expressed himself with the entrance into America of "a great abundance of labor on the other side of the world that would be glad to come here and develop our American resources."
Answering the statement of Judge Gary, Dr. Scott says: "May I venture to say that there are in this country today twelve million Colored people. Eight million of these twelve million are African Americans. It is important that we are tied to a one crop system and oppressed by economic conditions that hinder and prevent their fullest development and the enjoyment of the fullest American citizenship. They possess strong bodies and have a real patriotic attachment to American institutions. They are in position to supply the labor shortage to which you refer if plans are undertaken in a large and important scale to transfer them to the centers where their services are needed. It seems unnecessary to look for foreign shores to supply any labor shortage that may exist in American industries when there is this large and sympathetic group within reach. When Colored Americans are not Allens, they have never sought to dislodge them from their homeland. Anarchistic ideals. They are ready and willing to help develop the resources of their country. Will it not be possible for one circumstance as you are to lend the weight of your great influence in opening larger economic opportunities for this group who are struggling under adverse conditions in the rural districts of the far South where lynching and peonage are practised upon them with impunity. Your support of such a movement will be gratefully appreciated." No true statement could be made and it indicates a condition which should challenge the attentions of employers of labor in large cities in the North and East. It is a fact that there need be no labor shortage with such an ample supply of Negro labor within reach.
Negroes can fill all needs of American industry. This fact was proven during war times when thousands moved North and were taken into the larger industries. Statistics prove that they fitted in. Why should they not be again resorted to? The ravages of the boil weevil and the widespread agreement with peonage have rendered a multitude of Negro farmers ready and able to try new fields. Such a weakness can be beheaded if one takes pains to analyze the conditions under which they have been forced to live and labor for many years. Already they have begun another migration. The spirit of "America for Americans" can have no more practical espousal than the invitation of Negro labor to fill the shortage which Northern industry now experiences. There can be no doubt but that this stand of Dr. Scott will cause no little comment in the South and some sharp criticism from the Negro labor movement. Negro laborers should leave the farms. In fact, one criticism has already been made public in which the author, a large employer of Negro labor, accuses him of being ignorant of Southern conditions. Suffice it to say that such criticisms, since sincere though they may be, cannot outweigh the facts as they are able to be produced to prove that peonage and wage slavery do exist on a large scale in Southern States. It is these things which will make migration possible to leaders who have experienced them and agreement in that migration possible to leaders who know that these conditions exist.
Migration of many Negroes from the Southern states, while creating a labor shortage temporarily will be highly beneficial to the country generally. It will cause the South to realize that its agreement in a policy of cruelty and expression is economical in a policy of a reorganization of the Southern agricultural scheme, abolishing the land-based creating the number of land owners. It will give to the Northern industry a valuable and capable supply of American labor. And it will improve the mass of Negroes by putting them in touch with better educational facilities and tending toward their economic improvement. It is easy to agree with the suggestion of Dr. Scott and to express hope that large employers of labor will heed and set upon it.
THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, MAY, 5, 1923. THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION
Discussing "Migration and Its Causes," The Age, a newspaper of the Nerroga, published in New York, concludes an article with this paragraph:
**Dreamworks** - Migration and its challenges
Negroes, published in New York, concludes an article with this paragraph:
"If the South desires to retain the Negro as the most valuable of its assets, as a source of skilled and unskilled labor, it will lend an open ear to such suggestions as those offered by the meeting of Greenville, which was said to represent at least a thousand houses."
The "Greenville" reference is to a meeting held in that city in which extension of better school facilities and better general treatment to the Negroes, to check migration, were favored.
The premises of The Age are not admitted by all Southern white people—certainly not by The State.
The State has since its beginning advocated justice to Negroes, the giving to them for their dollar the dollar's worth, justice in the courts, as good schools as the state can afford for them and, above all, helpful and encouraging treatment—all this with inflexible maintenance of separation of the two races.
As numerous "race newspapers" and newspapers of white people, too have the habit of proceeding on The Age's assumptions. The State takes occasion to say that it does not believe the Negroes to be "the most valuable of the South's assets" and is not concerned about their retention "as a source of skilled and unskilled labor." On the contrary, the dispersion of the Negroes over this continent would be a most excellent event for the South. The migration is even now improving race relations in the South. However, it may and does cause temporary inconvenience and losses, in the long run it will be an immeasurable blessing to the South. We do not believe that Negroes should be driven away; they are here, they are entitled to receive fair treatment, and what constitutes "fair treatment, will in the main be, as it is, defined by the Southern white people.
We can not be cruel to the Negroes, we can not cheat them or deny them the rights of human beings without degrading ourselves—without undermining our own civilization. To say that they should be denied training in good schools, to set up that ignorance is better than knowledge for Negroes, is itself exposure of stupidity. We must do best for the Negroes because righteousness commands it, because in so ding we do the best for our creative
Were The State disposed to discourage migration, improvement of Negro school would be the last thing that it would urge. The Negroes shall be educated, the more they will be disposed to leave the South. As The Age truly says, restriction of immigration is creating in North demand for Negro labor and gaining concessions for it. This the better informed Southern Negroes learn first they are the first to migrate—and the indicator of their success is that the South suffers is that chiefly to the deportee, were a heroic effort made to assist the Southern Negroes they might be convinced that the South offers them more, than the North does but that would be required to lift them to a plane in which they would be worth much better wages in the South and, considering them coldly as a labor class, the South can and will obtain white labor superior to them in that time.
No one expect all the Negroes to leave but it is nonsense to pretend that Carolina would not be tremendously improved were 400,000 of the 800,000 of the worst in the west in terms of the wealth would have two whites to one black. Nor is Turkey parrouting that the South is the "natural home of the Negroes," that they "are and will be haplier in the South than elsewhere" in the United States. Usually it is canning nonsense. We doubt the statement. Much may be said in either side of it. At any rate, we are content that the Negroes decide it for themselves.
The sooner the old notion that a white Southern woman must have plenty of Negro servants fades, the better for the growth of such a civilization. The sooner the South will be South Carolina.
South Carolina would be a better state with 900,000 whites than with 500,000 whites and 900,000 Negroes.
Let us give the Negroes justice, let us show them help and kindness—but not for the sake of keeping them in the South. The restrictions on immigration are excellent for the white South in what they open the road to Negro employment in the North—and they are no less as excellent for the Negroes, if it shall continue, will be an important factor in desperate efforts by the white North to relax or remove the restrictions.
BIG UNIVERSITIES AND BIG FOOLS
Big universities should turn out big men with big minds, big visions and big plans. Black men who have received the stamp of approval from big universities are expected to do big things because they have had big opportunities. The eyes of the world are turned upon them and the teaming thousand of their race are looking to them for new light, new courage and new inspiration. Some of our big university men are running to form and the world respects them, but it is a regrettable fact that a large proportion of our graduates from large universities have been turned into simmering idiots and boasting, bombastic fools.
We have produced some big fools whose contribution to society is the parchment paper called a diploma which they point to with "peace coefire" and a vow is a racial distinction, this they dedicate to their race and display in conspicuous places. We have other big fools from big universities who teech like suck the blood from the white men with whom they have been in contact while in the big university. We have men from Harvard and Yale, etc., who seek alms from their classmates in the big universities, prostitute and exploit their friendliness by using it in selfish and unworthy causes.
It has long been claimed that no race of mendicants could win respect and recognition yet our leading big university graduates are as a rule always begging "their white" friends for this and that favor. A young man some years ago graduates from one of the biggest universities in this country; since leaving the classic walls of his alma mater his most outstanding achievement, outside of boasting of Harvard, has been to cultivate every student's sense of responsibility and hard cuts to easy money. This gentleman is one of the big fools from a big university. It is impossible for this man to have benefited the world either by his birth or his education. He is a concrete example of the attempt to make "a race horse out of a mule." He is a decided liability both to his rac e, his friends and their university. Other big fools from big universities are those who have assumed a supercilious attitude, who have thrown their heads into the air, who can't be reached with a "ten-foot pole." These men have an exaggerated sense of self-importance and are to their race at all. These men have been unified for useful career and had a upon society. This is the fool who went to college, but did not learn how to think. We have the big and unpardonable fool who is too proud to work, but is prone to cke out a morbid existence in "a collar and tie" job. This fool will engage himself in any occupation which affords a living wage and a roll top desk. He is content to work at any salary as long as his duties are "digested." This man is spied for real work and actual seri-ness. He is not temperamentally fitted to grapple with the problems of life. But the fault lies in the university that he gained him has made a sad mistake. But the fault lies in the men themselves.
Big universities sharpen the intellect of men to such a fine point that they are better able to perform intelligent service for humanity. Wise men appreciate this fact and make the most of their training. Fools pervert their qualifications and make a mess of their lives. The black people in America cannot afford to have so many bigools coming from big universities. They need the training that these men are capable of imparting, the need them to blaze the paths to success in unbeaten vies. They need them to outsmart the bigools out from Harvard and Yale, etc., parasitic, superillious, narrow-minded, and full of false bride. We want men to come out of the big universities not whips. Chicago Whips.

INDIANS TO TEST EQUALITY
RIGHTS IN EAST AFRICA
(Preston News Service)
London, England, May 4.—The outcome of an important test case, which will decide the rights of Indians to equality with the whites in the British Empire has arisen in the former German colony of Kenya, East Africa, is being watched with more than passing interest by leading members of darker races in all parts of the country.
A delegation representing 10,000 whites is in London and another delegation representing the Indian point of view has sailed from India and the two groups will meet here in an effort to avert the threatened civil war between the two races in Kenya. All India is deeply stirred by the situation.
Kenya was developed, it is said, by white men. But now they are in a difficult position, as there are 30,000 Indians in this country against 10,000 whites. Furthermore there are 2,500,000 Negroes that inhabit Kenya are naturally in sympathy with the Indians. It is said that these Negroes are of the semi-savage warrior type.
It is reported that the whites have refused to grant even a modified scheme of concessions and the result is that the Indians are seriously aroused and openly threaten to drive the white men out of Kenya.

BAYS WHITTS, NOW SUFFER
SUFFER CHILFY FROM LYNCHING.
New York, May 14—Mob violence is now directed chiefly against white men, even women, an cohort of African-Americans, chiefly against Colored, according to a report just issued by the American Civil Liberties Union, which points out that in the 102 cases of lynching, tarring and feathering or flogging in the street and in murders, victims were white men and women." Among the 32 Negroes in the record, 20 were lynched. "When a mob goes after "Negro, in most cases," the report states, it does not stop
Presenting the striking facts of mob violence in the United States, the Civil Liberties report notes "a marked increase in the number of cases," and claims that "the violence is in most cases the result of an organised campaign of terrorism and lawless assumption of power by private organisations, notably the Ku Klux Klan."
Stating that “Texas leads all the other states in floggings, and tarrings and featherings,” the Civil Liberties report claims that the increase in mob violence “is the product of the class feeling and prejudice aroused by the war. The dominant group behind organized mob violence is that of ‘white, Protestant, and Gentile’ southerners, centering in the Ku Klux Klan with the object of class supremacy, private vengeance, and fantastic notions of ‘a forcing the ‘moral code’.”
While most of the mob violence is the last two years took place in the south and southwest, “there were scattered cases throughout the west, and a few cases in the east,” the report states.
The record totals nearly 800 victories at the lowest court, not included in over one person a day. Of those, 102 persons were lynched, 32 whites tarred and feathered by 54 whites and only two Negroes; 167 persons were lynched by 159 whites and Negroes; and 169 whites clearly allied with I. W. W.a., were deported from four communities to the Civil I. Lorem report states that "the killings by mobs in fact total 100,000,000,000 of the election riots in Florida, where 30 to 60 Negroes lost their votes in the election, voting in Oklahoma, where 80

BISHOP BESTS P. V. IN THRILL
ING BASERALL BOUT.
Prairie View entered the "Bengal Den" (Bishop) on Monday afternoon, and the gold only to fall victim under the brightly blue sky. But the third-thirty prompt with all Wiley College and many supportive cheering and jerasing as well as withstand the heavy sticking of this wonder "Bishop". That bunch is on. On Monday Parchmanum took the penalty catching and both proved inferior to the mighty task before them and soon a new battery for the right hand to try and check the right on the second and stringer). This second battery for Prairie View was composed of the second in at the Martin. They came in at the Martin. The second inning. Five scores had already come in and so there were added to the mighty lines of Bishop.
Hits off Friday five; off Parchman four; off Hunter twenty. Men struck out by Friday five; by Hunter five.
Home runs: Walker, three base h, Dorsay; Gilmore, Prince; two base hits; Oliver, Thornton, Harden, Hunter. Men walked by 14-day, 2; by Hunter 1. Time of game 2 hours and 30 minutes. Umpires Breck and Bledoe.
On Tuesday afternoon P. V. entered in upon her second defeat and was outplayed from the beginning to the close. The P., V. battery for the occasion was composed of Martin and Bishop Martin, the former Dallas Giant hurler, was always in good but is infied was incapable of exerting the always needed support and punch which he constantly cried for. The house run of Captain Stringer in the eighth won for Bishop as it cleared the center field panel putting the score at the point of ten.
Hines, Moss and Stringer made up the batteries for Bishop. Hines went to the showers at the close of the second inning, but the mighty Southpaw was by no means on a road to defeat. "T," Carroll starred for Prairie View while Jermyn wears the laurels for Bishop on account of his almost superhuman work in left field.

With Monday's game, the Giants closed the Monroe Southern Giants series with a clean sweep. It was a case of edging up and digging in; the expression referred too is simply a self explanatory proposition; the reader may ador or subtract. However, the word mentioned in the text, "edging up and digging in the opposition" to inform the opposition whether to bow or who is who. Three wins in only many games tells the whole story.
In the initial clash Saturday, the Giants won from Monroe by a 10-6 victory in the form, doing the chumping. Max for Monroe was pitted against Burdine, both pitcher pitched in the form, and that were good for 5 runs. Burdine kept the five hits garmed off of

It was a pitcher's battle between Burton, the visit者翠, and our Mr. Burton, the local deck. Shanks was given glift-edge support; behind him, the local deck of critical stages of the game were costly to him, his team mate having given to Dallas, a 2 to 0 victory in the critical stages of the game locals down with only three hits, Shanks was touched for seven hits in a crazy chap kept them well scattered.

By Wm, Ross A. B, C.'s Pitcher No. 9.
In January, 1916, I began to sign up new men for my Monroe club because I wanted to make good as a manager just as I had as pitcher. On the first of March I had my club signed up and it was a dandy. The club was composed of the following men: Nathan Trim, 1b; Marcus Stanford, 2b; Ed Dardon, 3rd Alonzo Longware, ss; Anchorline Haney, lf; Frank White, cf; Grace Hicks, rf; Emmett Scott, c; Will Davis, c; Eugene Scott, p; Pat Haney, p; Wm.

I am a member now; five games against Rube Foster's club of Chicago and they also wanted me to bring my catcher who was at that time Eugene Scott. So I got permission from the owner of the Monroe club to go then I wired them that Scott and I would come for $10.00 a game and all expenses which they agreed to pay. I left the club with Longware in town, and asked him to report at Longware's when he did and I told him that Scott and I were going to New Orleans for about three weeks. I told him my plans and how I wanted the men lined up and then Scott and I left for New Orleans.

After we arrived in New Orleans we practiced about five days then went to Beach. Our first game was on Sunday. I pitched and lost by the score of 11-6. We were in New Orleans, I pitched six games, won three and lost three.

Our first game was on Sunday, on May 13, the park was crowded, all the fighter for the game to start.

The 3rd and Dallas won 7 to 1. On the fourth we played a morning and afternoon game at the Monroe and the Longware, one of the best all round players I have ever known; he beat Lighten up to one of the best all round players; so manager Lee Jones sent Dave Brown back to try and tie things up.

AUSTIN ODD FELLOWS
BANQUET J. T. EWING,
NEW D. G. S
Austin, Texas, May 5.
One of the most pleasant banquets on record was held here last Tuesday night in honor of J. T. Ewing, recently elected D. G. S., of the Odd Fellows of Texas to complete the unexpired term of Prof. J. P. Starks, deceased. The banquet was held at Lyons Hall.
Mr. P. A. Hill was master of ceremonies in that unassuming manner put over the program with occasion.
After making timely remarks touching the achievements of Old Fellowship in America and the world over, Mr. Hill introduced the following in the order mentioned, each one acquitting himself admirably: Prof. L. C. Ander, principal of Anderson High School; Hon. Wm. Tears, Sr., the veteran undertaker; Editor M. M. Haynes, of the People's Mouthpiece and Mrs. L. C. Anderson, who represented the Ladies of the H. H. of Ruth. The addresses were interspersed with music by the orchestra.
Each one of the speakers paid a glowing tribute to the life and character of Hon. J. T. Ewing who has been promoted to the office of District Grand Secretary of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of Texas.
When Mr. Ewing was introduced by master of ceremonies, P. A. Hill to respond, Rev. M. M. Haynes led the son, "Go On," the ovation was sublime.
Mr. Ewing spoke briefly, paying glowing tribute to the memory of his late wife, Starke; thanked many his Austen friends for their support and confidence, assuring us all that he would be the very progressive, standard set of Starke; thanked John Starke who wrought so mildly on John Starke who made Odd Fellowship what it is. He was the importance and responsibilities of this office and it shall be my purpurpose to make all the people connected with this Order, from he humblest to the highest. "Efficient service I know you want," he said. "I want you all to know I appreciate this expression of confidence, and promise you to thank than can express in words," which I have failed to accomplish, and promise you to fulfill in service. "This compliment paid me to touch my home office with the greatest joy, as I go forth in the discharge of my duties as the Grand Secretary Odd Fellowship."
At the conclusion of Mr. Ewings' address, he was roundly applauded and the Odd Fellow Boys sang, "He was a great man," and Mr. M. Haynes, M. V. P. Then followed the Grand March led by Mr. and Mrs. T. E. Tewing. Refreshments consisted of chicken salad on lettuce, a variety cake and cream and punch.

Deputies' Methods of Obtaining Evidence Bring Instructed Verdict.
"I wouldn't present evidence of this kind to a jury of white men and ask for the woman to be guilty of offence charged, but notwithstanding, I ask your honor to instruct you to challenge the charge, notwithstanding the guilty."
"Assistant District Attorney R. B. Allen Jr., Saturday morning requested Judge Charles A. Pippen to instruct me not guilty in case of Maggie Stewart charged with violation of the Dean liquor law. His request was denied, and the case against the woman, as well as one against Jody Dyes, Negro roommate, was evidence in the Stewart case developed that two special deputies and a night watchman specially commissioned to investigate the four ounces of whiskey from the woman, under the pretext that the deputies had needed liquor. The deputy city, he said, according to the woman, further testimony not contradicted by the watchman on the stand, was of an unprintable na-

posed to consider the ambition on the part of Colored people to see their fullest development and the enjoyment of the fullest American citizenship as being unworthy. I am not sure why that the South, the natural hikari of the Negro, so you may, is going to hostility toward the Negro in these fundamental directions. If it does not happen, the Colored Men Support Statement That Situation Has Been Correctly Revised. Dosms of letters and telegrams have reached me from all parts of the South, from Lake Charles, Louisiana, for instance and from points in Mississippi from Colored men advising that my telegram to Judge Gary Cory should be sent to me. Many parts of their sections just as I described them. These communications very definitely indicate that these Colored Americans seeking a higher wage and release from the economic burden of many parts of the South to a one-crop farm, supply the labor shortage in American industrial plants where conditions are more satisfactory, it plants more crops, and provide the most important scale to transfer them to the centers where their services are needed.

are 27,000 Negro ministers of all kinds in the United States, and it is charged that too many of them take little interest in the prevailing upon them and their parents to have them attend Sunday
Dr. Penn says that there are bu 910 Negro students in 36 theological institutions and departments in the entire country, and that there is not the same effort being put forth to direct the Negro young man to the ministry, that is put forth in the home and public for other professions and avocations. In the Negro youth is seeking everything else and forsakes the fundals' mentals progress, which will be used and morally, leadership needs to wake up and change the trend. Conferences and convictions of young men, called to consider the religious situation and their relation to the Christian ministry, older boys' conferences in connection with Annual Conferences, special efforts in colleges and secondary schools and propaganda in the home, were among the recommendations to change the religious attitude of the youth toward religious life and the ministry in particular.

"You know they did not have a night to come to my house at 11 o'clock at night and break in. They'll claim that they had a warrant for me for a bale of cotton but it was untrue. They must have come there to kill me. If they had called me I would have gone anywhere they wanted me to go with them and get them all the cotton they wanted. It was so to me like they would come in the day. I don't see why they came at that time at night. " I stayed around there one week and I saw they was going to kill me. I went into Georgia. They whipped Gus Glover so bad until the people are looking for him to die in life. Culbreath/Stump Jones/Joe Culbreath, David Glover and Butler and all my family. They whipped all of them.
