NO.12. Claims Victim Was Trying To Rob Candy Store 一 (By Associated Negro Press) PHILADELPHIA, June 7.—Benjamin Mittman, a white man and proprietor of a delicatessen establishment at 1423 North Twenty-third street, is charged with having murdered a young colored man named Charles E. Brown. The shopkeeper claims that he killed Brown because Brown was attempting a hold-up. However, it developed at the inquest that there are other circumstances and the hearing has been continued pending an investigation of the slaying. The party responsible for the turn in this matter is Thomas Washington, a colored lad thirteen years old, who states that he, in company with several of his companions all pupils of the Reynolds Public school, had witnessed the shooting, and that Brown had not attempted a hold-up of the store. The testimony of the wife of the storekeeper and of his young son was to the effect that Brown and his companions entered the store and that Brown grasped Mittman by the throat and then picked up a meat cleaver to hit him. Mrs. Mittman is reported as having stopped the blow by jerking the cleaver. Brown is said to have shoved Mittman against the counter, whereupon Mittman seized a revolver from under the counter and fired the shot that cost Brown his life.

N A Jones, president of the Pensacola branch of the N.A.A.C.P. reports that the case arriving out of the attempt to bar Negroes from the polls will probably be argued in court some time in July or August.

Booth has pleaded guilty to murder in connection with the death a short time ago of his baby who died after drinking a bottle of soft drink brought to the home of his estranged wife. Judge B. F. Carter has sentenced Booth to life imprisonment. ports Mr. Jonce. The white citizens according to local newspaper report, were called together by Mayor J. H. Bayliss of Bensacola, being notified by telephone of a meeting. Mayor Bayliss was renominated as a member of the city commission in an election from which Negroes were barred. The white citizens attending the meeting voted to ask that any surplus remaining from county candle dates' fees after the June primary election, be used as a fee to pay attorneys opposing the Negroes. Other meetings of the white citizens were reported planned in connection with this contest. Colored Delegates From South For Him Strong (WASHINGTON, June 7.—Leaders here are conceding that the nominee of the republican party at Kansas City will be Herbert Hoover. "It looks like the field against Hoover," said Dr. Emmett J. Scott, whose ability as a political analyst is well-known, "but you can't beat somebody with nobody and the field has nobody." Most of the colored delegations from the south have lined up for Hoover. Both Howard of Mississippi and Davis of Georgia are for the secretary of commerce, Scipio Jones, the lone delegate from Arkansas, is said to be uncertain. His delegation was instructed for Lowden, but his friends predict that he will be found on the Hoover bandwagon. Walter Cohen for reasons strategists at the capital are unable to explain is said to be against Hoover. He declined their offer to have former Senator Leenroot present his contest at Kansas City. Originally, Cohen declared for the la' Senator Willis of Ohio out of gratitude for Willis' espousal of his cause in the senate when Cohen was seeking confirmation of his job as collector of port at New Orleans. Senator Willis' death removed that obligation. In the meantime, the lily whites of Louisiana, led by National Committee Kunze, and who are fighting Cohen, endorsed Hoover, which may account for his attitude. Lily whites all over the south have endorsed Hoover for the reason according to his friends that they regard him as a sure winner. He is in some states endorsed by both the colored regulars and the lily white pretenders. In Mississippi former governor Sheldon of Nebraska who is alleged to have left his state under a cloud has joined with U. G. Gordon, a postmaster of Chicago some thirty years ago to form the Southern States Republican league, a lily white combination. Gordon who is the Dawes representative in Mississippi public utilities is said to be really for Da. or Lowden, but his faction endorsed Hoover. In Chicago, Oscar DePriest and Dan Jackson, district delegates, swear they will never vote for Lowden, although they were instructed for him, because his was the only name on the ballot. They say they are for Coolidge, but are expected to end by voting for whoever Mayor "Bill" Thompson directs. Bob Church of Tennessee has had his hands full in the local battle at Memphis, where the whites have fought him every inch of the way. He is a district delegate. The Tennessee delegation is instructed for Hoover. In Texas the Creager faction led by Committeeman Creager endorsed Hoover, but have not a colored delegate or alternate. The Congressman Wurzbach group have one Negro district delegate and one alternate and the delegation is uninstructed. Dr. Alexander of New Jersey is for Hoover. John R. Hawkins of the District of Columbia is also for Hoover. Homer G. Phillips of St. Louis, who was defeated as a Hoover delegate, in the Missouri state convention, which went on record for Lowden, was a visitor in Washington last week. Attorney Phillips, who is president of the National Negro Bar association, conferred with Hoover leaders and is expected to take a definite part in their activities. GONZALES.

COURT REVIEWS EVIDENCE Cashier Confesses To Part He Played In Solvent's Flop MEMPHIS, June 7—T. H. Hayes, G. W. Atkins and J. L. Yancy, three officers of the defunct Solvent Savings Bank and Trust company which failed last December with losses of a half million dollars, were found guilty Friday of fraudulent breach of trust in connection with the theft of $21,403.35 of the bank's money and were sent to prison. The sentences imposed upon the men were light and are said to have been a distinct disappointment to the state's attorneys. Hayes, president of the bank, was given a sentence of one year, and Atkins and Yancy were given two sentences of five years each to run concurrently. Although the state's attorneys made every effort to see that a heavy sentence was given Hayes, hitherto known and respected as one of the wealthiest and most influential Negroes in the Memphis district, Hayes' attorneys were able to show that the convicted bank president, was a president in name only. Hayes confessed that he knew very little about the bank's business and trusted that if everything was not all right the state bank examiners and auditors would discover errors and see that they were corrected. Justice of Peace Held for Killing (By Associated Negro Press) RIPLEY, Tenn., June 7.—Strange things are happening in this section of the country, and one of the strangest of these was the arrest of W. G. Dennie, prominent white planter and justice of peace here Tuesday charged with the killing of a colored man by the name of George Anderson. According to the reports, Anderson and Dennie are neighbors and quarreled over the "property dividing line". In the argument Dennie shot and killed his colored neighbor and in turn came to the city to advise the law of his action. He was arrested but later released upon a thousand dollar bond. Even this is strange.

The story of Africa and its problems and struggles was told by a native African girl to a Gary church audience of 300 persons last Sunday night. The girl is Amanda Mason, a native of South Africa, who was born in Africa, but educated in America at Wilberforce university. She spoke to the congregation of the A. M. E. church at 20th and Massachusetts streets, in the evening services. "Africa is making surprising progress," she told her hearers. "Missionary work is being carried on by near all of the denominations and natives of the continent are becoming civilized and converted to the Christian religion," she said, picturing a brilliant future for her native country. Miss Mason declared that Africa PRICE FIVE CENTS DERS Bank MINISTER HITS GRAFT IN GARY POLITICS GAME Claim Negro Group Asked Protection In Primaries CLAIM VOTES WERE SOLD Masses of People Not To Be Held For Condition By DR. FRANK S. DELANEY Where should the loyalty in Negroes cease in the support of fellow Negroes who are aspiring for position and place and power? It must be remembered that loyalty must be responded to by loyalty. Race pride may be the incentive for the beginnings, but it is not sufficient to hold the masses to unfaithful, inadequate, would-be politicians and office seekers against their unfaithfulness and deception. A very prominent city official is quoted as saying that the Negro politicians asked for their parapaticipation in the election direct money payment of a job or protection for gambling joints and houses of prostitution among their own folk. It is a common rumor that a certain deputy in the county who was elected as a delegate to the state convention, was paid to vote for three different opposing men. In the past, there has been a very pronounced outcry against the apparent disloyalty on the part of the masses of the race. People Demanding Justice At the present, a new note is being heard; it is rising from the mills, the farms, the factories, the mines and the levees, and it is expressing itself in very vehement terms against the white collared, silk stocking crowd. Both of these complaints have been wrong—eternally wrong, everlastingly wrong and yet both of them have been based on an element of truth. The great mass of Negroes must remember that it requires educated leadership on the part of Negroes to treat with the educated element of the white race, if we are to treat at all; and we must cease to condemn and mistrust educated Negroes as a group. We must openly and deliberately denounce and refuse the false and fearlessly and courageously stand by, support, and promote the honorable and true. I do not think that the masses are entirely at fault. The professional group, who logically should become our leaders, because of superior advantages and opportunities, must weed out from among themselves the false and dishonest and condemn them publicly hat we, the masses, may know the truth and choose and follow the leadership which will be for the best. The so-called cultured professional group has been too prominent in the defense of the raving, treacherous wolves who become a part of their group and whose only contribution to society is destruction, mistrust and disgrace, and who like vultures prey upon the weakest of the common flock. GIRL IS VISITOR; TRY'S STRUGGLES "needs only the help and co-operation of the Negroes in America to come into its place in the sun. Contributions to the Missionary Fund of the A. M.

She is a graduate of Wilberforce university and was one of the delegates to the recent general conference of the A. M. E. church. She is now on a nation-wide tour of the United States, which will close in November. While in Gary, many social affairs have been arranged to honor her.
