THOMAS KENNEDY EDITOR AND PUBLISHER COMMENDS WEST VIRGINIA PRESS (Columbian Press Bureau) Washington, D. C., July 24.—In the recently published report of T. Edward Hill, Director of the Bureau of Negro Welfare and Statistics for the state of West Virginia, the following interesting comment is made concerning the very favorable attitude of the white press in its relation to the colored citizens of that state. Director Hill says: "There is no state in which the white press on the whole is fairer in its attitude towards the Negro than in West Virginia. Every worthwhile movement for the advancement of the Negro can get liberal space in the daily newspapers, and all editorial comment is uniformly fair and frequently helpful. In reporting the news the press of West Virginia does not attempt to magnify the crimes and failures of the Negro and minimize his progress and achievements, as appears to be the studied policy of the daily press in many sections of the country. It is only on rare occasions that any of the state papers publish glaring headlines of crimes alleged to have been committed by Negroes and follow them up with sensational articles tending to inflame the prejudices and passions of the people. It would have been impossible for the Bureau of Negro Welfare and Statistics to function with a small degree of success without the assistance of the press of the state."

Carey Our quarterly conference Saturday night was held by our most excellent Presiding Elder Dr. W. T. Osborne, A. M. All reports were good. Words of praise and encouragement from the presiding elder was very inspiring to the conference. Sunday was a high day in Zion. Dean Vaughan from Western university preached a masterful sermon as he always can do. The pastor and Dr. Osborne went out to Grandview mission 11 o'clock, the presiding elder preached a great sermon. Two young girls were converted and joined the church. At 3 o'clock p. m., our dedication service began with Rt. Rev. A. J. Carey D. D. Ph. The bishop electrified the audience-with his eloquence and evangelistic and unique way of going through the dedicational service. The following ministers took part in the service: Rev. J. A. Broadnax, Rev. T. W. Green, Jr., Rev. G. M. Tillman, President F. J. Peck, Dean Vaughan, Dr. Barkale. A grand program was carried out. The collection was taken, $51.97. Visiting ministers, Rev. Dent, Rev. A. C. Kyles, Rev. Chas. Sims. All the ministers were asked to say a few words. They all were encouraging to pastor and members and to the congregation as well. The presence of Bishop Carey here will be a lasting impression on the hearts of the people. It will indeed be a glorious occasion when God fills His Holy temple with His Holy presence. Many hearts were touched and amens went up from the mouths of many witnesses. Our fourth and last quarter was a grand success both spiritual and financial. Dr. Osborne our presiding elder preached another one of those great sermons at night, which was with great power and affective. Receipts for day $102.41. The pastor and members want to thank our good Bishop Carey for coming to us and giving such a wonderful inspiration. Our hearts are filled with gratitude when we think of such a God sent man, going through the country doing good for the people, spreading the banner of African Methodism and lifting the cross of Jesus among men. One does not realize how much comfort is derived from such beautiful expressions shown by our visiting pastor and president, and dean of Western university and Editor Western Recorder and friends in this our effort. C. R. Johnson, 2068 North Sixth street, who had an operation at the Douglass hospital last week, is doing very nicely of which his many friends will be pleased to know. He is still at the hospital. The Christian Endeavor Allen league of First A. M. E. church will have a special speaker Sunday evening at their meeting. Prof. Wise will furnish the music. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50 RECHRISTENED AS A MARK OF RESPECT (Editorial in Dallas Morning News) The sleeping-car Sirocco was in the wreck that cost so many lives near Rockport, N. J., last month. When it comes out of the repair shops it will bear the name of Daniels. The new name is in honor of the porter who used to have the car in charge. Oscar J. Daniels he was on the pay roll of the Pullman company, but he answered to Oscar or Daniels or George. It was all the same to Oscar. Black though his skin was, he had the heart of courage when the last great testing came. In the face of clouds of live steam from the wrecked locomotive he closed the door of his car and saved others instead of himself. The steam took Oscar into its arms of agony and handed him over to death. But he lived long enough afterward to wave an attending physician to a little child whose need he adjudged greater than his own. It is said that this is the first time in the history of the sleeping-car company that an employee's name has gone on a car. But there will be no criticism of its lapse from policy. Bravery knows no conditions save the need of it, and manhood rises above the accidents and inheritances of life. No man could have done more than Oscar Daniels did. A man can not be born too humble or by misfortune sink too low to reach up and achieve heroism, provided the stuff of heroes is in his heart. It may be that Oscar Daniels did what he did without-thinking. It may be that it was all over before he consciously thought at all. It may be that the grooves of duty to those for whom he was responsible held his actions when actions counted most for them—and most for him because of them. But however these things may be, no man, be he black or brown or white, need hesitate to take off his hat as he enters the sleeping-car that Oscar Daniels rechristened with sacrifice. THE CIVIC LEAGUE Will meet Tuesday evening August 4th at its rooms over Home Drug Co. The committees on Boys Week and Emancipation will be completed and their work apportioned to them, and matters will be set in motion for the complete success of both enterprises. A very good meeting was held on the 21st, and considerable business was transacted, however the attendance was not as large as it should have been, on account of attendance at parks. It is to be deplored that matters of lighter import are sufficient to detract from attendance, where matters of vital importance to be considered. But we are learning, though late—if we do not learn enough—the fault will be to our discredit. I. F. BRADLEY, President. C. L. JONES, Secretary.

Number 49 MOB VIOLENCE DECREASES IN SOUTH INTERRACIAL COMMISSION SENDS COMMENDATORY LETTER TO SOUTH'S ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS Atlanta, Ga., July 24.—To the endeavors of sheriffs and other peace officers in the performance of duty—sometimes dangerous and on occasion unpopular—is to be credited the steady decrease in the number of lynchings, the commission on interracial cooperation holds in a letter sent the sheriffs of the several southern states. The growing number of reported "preventions" of mob violence in proportion to the decreasing number of "lynchings," the letter sets out, is clearly the result of the officers' vigilance and at the same time points "the way to the final extinction of mob violence," which peculiarly American crime may specially be wiped from the map by faithful officers, backed by an aroused public sentiment." The commission's letter to the sheriffs, signed by Dr. M. Ashby Jones, Chairman, and Will W. Alexander, Director is as follows: "During the last three years America's annual lynching record has decreased 70 per cent—from 58 in 1922 to 28 in 1923 and to 16 last year. This is most gratifying and has occasioned nation-wide comment. "That this trend is due largely to the vigilance of sheriffs is clearly indicated by a study of the records. In 1914 there were 52 lynchings and only 14 reported preventions. In 1924 the figures were reversed—16 lynchings and 45 preventions. These figures tell the story and point the way to the final extinction of mob violence. In this effort our officers have undoubtedly had and will have the full approval and support of enlightened public opinion in the south. "The purpose of this letter is to express on behalf of the Interracial Commission and its hundreds of affiliated state and county committees their cordial appreciation of the fidelity and courage on the part of the sheriffs which has brought about this gratifying change. In successfully opposing mobs these officers are doing something more than protecting their prisoners, whether guilty or innocent. They are protecting the law and constitutions of state and nation. They are upholding the good name of their communities, their states and their country. They are defending civilization itself against the threat of anarchy. This peculiarly American crime may speedily be wiped from the map by faithful officers, backed by an aroused public sentiment. To that end we wish you Godspeed and pledge you our hearty cooperation and support." MISSOURI COTTON CULTIYATION EXPANDS Jefferson City, Mo., July 24.—Cotton cultivation in Missouri has taken a marked jump during the past five years, and the southeastern counties of the State are now well on the way to a position of vantage in the cotton market. In this connection it is said that that portion of Negro migrants-finding their way northward into Missouri, which preferred the cotton fields to the factory, has found steady employment in cotton cultivation at a good wage and under improved conditions of housing and with better chances for education and general advancement than formerly. Consequently Missouri's Negro population is steadily increasing and the supervision of the state administration over their welfare has increased its watchfulness. The Missouri Negro Industrial Commission has therefore been repeatedly called upon to broaden its inquiries into the community and work life of the Negroes of the state, and the findings of the commission have provided ample material for increased attention to this particular phase of the state's work by officials in public office. The state administrative staff and the efficient personnel of the commission are to be heartily commended. Dr. J. A. Barnes, M. D., of New Orleans one of the leading physicians of that city, his wife and daughter, were the guests of Rev. and Mrs. C. E. Brooks, 1111 North Eighth street, the week.end. Dr. Barnes and family are old and intimate friends of the Brook's. They are on a three months travel, leaving Monday night for the northwest and the Pacific coast.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. REV. J. W. GREEN VISITS OLD HOME IN SOUTH AFTER 35 YEARS Rev. J. W. Green of 1236 Nebraska avenue has returned home after a months' visit at his old home, Columbia, South Carolina. This is the first time Rev. Green has been back or seen any of his folk, in 35 years. This is his own story of his trip and visit: "During my absence of 35 years my oldest brother died and my youngest sister and my father about two years ago. During this 35 years I kept up a correspondence and one day a letter came from my brother Lewis, begging me to come and make them a visit, so they might see me once again. He could not understand how I could stay away from folks so many years. This letter affected me, as no other one had, so I immediately made up my mind to go. My wife said, Jesse, you should go. I told my little church membership and they urged upon me to go and in a short time they placed in my hand $46.00 to help in making the trip. The 4th of June, at 9:30 p. m., I boarded the train and was soon on my way to my old southern home. Before I left home I said to my wife if I could only see my brother Isaac, who left two years before I did and none of the family had heard of him since going away. But on my arrival to my happy surprise, when I stepped off the train at 4:50 p. m., Saturday, my brother Lewis, said, who do you suppose is here—well it is brother Isaac, he came in Thursday. He soon was before me and we had a joyful and happy meeting. When he begin to tell his long absence he had been in Buffalo, New York. He thought I was dead and I thought the same of my brother Isaac. I said this must be the providence of God, that we both meet after nearly two score years from each other and not knowing that either were living. It was a glorious meeting of all of us and the tears trinkled down our cheeks. Sunday morning I went with my brother Lewis to his church—Sidney Park A. M. E. church, a large brick edifice. That evening we drove out to the little church where I preached my first sermon and my mother and father are sleeping. While viewing around we saw an open grave and soon come the funeral. I ask about who it was and I was told it was Ellen Bynam, she being my wife's youngest aunt and there I saw and met four other aunts and an uncle of my wife. We mingling joy with sorrow. We then drove to our fathers house (deceased) where I met my step mother and we embraced each other with tears in our eyes of joy. She is the mother of seven children, four girls and three boys of whom I saw for the first time. My heart was overflowing with joy—my love went out to them. It was to me such a sweet family and I seemed to be to them. The second Sunday I was invited to preach at Sidney Park C. M. E. Church. Rev. Pharmer was the pastor. After services I went to my brother Eliott's home, where he I visited Mr. Starks (white) and family, who is the son of a Mrs. Starks (deceased) where I did my first work, away from home, as a nurse for this boy. I also visited Mrs. Landrum, for whom I nursed in her family. She is still living. Six brothers and two sisters dine together for the first time as a whole for more than 40 years. There we had a group picture. It was one of the happy moments of my life. Each of my sisters had special dinners for my brother Isaac and myself. We taken dinner with sisters Elizabeth THE WEEKLY ANNOUNCER OF FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH C. E. BROOKS, Pastor. Parsonage 1111 N. Eighth St. Phone, Fairfax 2904 Order of Services 9:30 A.
