THE NEGRO STAR FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE VOL. 13 NO. 52 SPECIAL COMMISSION FOR SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE SPECIAL COMMISSION FOR SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE Washington, D. C. April President Harding recently asked his special commission, headed by Charles G Dawes of Chicago, to make "diligent inquiry" of government department heads in an effort to find out just where the government agencies have been "lacking in authority, neglectful or failing" in caring for disabled service men. He asked also that investigation be made of "the abuses which have developed." The President's request was in the form of a statement, which was read at the first meeting of the Commission by Mr. Dawes, who called on the President at the White House. The commission chairman announced the President's wishes would be carried out to the letter and that the inquiry would not be directed into controversial or extended subjects.

TRAVELED OVER 600 000 MILES IN THE INTERESTS OF BOYS AND GIRLS AN INTERNATIONAL FIGURE IN SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK TO BE AT THE STATE SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION, HUTCHINSON, MAY 35 R. A. Waite of the international Sunday School Association, one of the foremost leaders in young people's work on the continent. He has seen and has helped to meet boys' and girls' problems from the point of the pastor, the Y. M. C. A. secretary an adviser to the Juvenile Court, as well as from, the point of view of the leader in religious education. Yes, and "Daddy" Waite is the father of three adolescent youngsters himself! He KNOWS the m. He can tell you what they are thinking, feeling and wishing. Doubtless he has the confidence of more boys and girls than any other leader of our day. He has attended 1053 older boys and older girls conferences and traveled over 600,000 miles in the interests of boys and girls. The suggestions he will be able to make to pastors, Sunday School teachers and parents will be apt. They will fit the case in hand. The study Mr. Waite has been making for several of the four-fold programs of activities for boys and girls, furnishes him with information with which to answer a score of the questions which have been bothering leaders everywhere. Three afternoons spent with him in a discussion of the problems facing church school leaders in the religious education of the youth of today will bring inspiration and satisfaction. Those afternoons will furnish more workable plans than many months of spare time reading. Mr. Walte is to be in Hutchinson May 45 at the Fifty-sixth annual convention of the Kansas Sunday School Association He will be the special guest of the Young People's Division workers. Miss Bonita Ferguson is the Superintendent of this division in the state Sunday School Association. PRICE, FIVE CENTS SHALL PREJUDICE OR MERIT RULE THE GOVERNMENT? Washington, D. C.,—Members of Congress today received copies of a petition, addressed to Mrs. Virginia White Speel, chairman of the National Woman's Republican Committee of Columbia, and signed by 508 white women employed in the office of the Register of the Treasury, opposing the appointment of a Negro Register. We have been definitely informed." the signers of the petition declared, "that the appointment of a colored man as Register of the Treasury is being considered. 'There gister's office is now very large and is doing re-possible work. Its personnel consists of more than 900 clerks, mostly ex-service men and white women, who are dependent upon their income here for support. For a Negro to have jurisdiction over those clerks would be intolerable. "It is true that colored men have served as Registers of the Treasury, but out of the twenty-two registers only four have been Negroes. At no time when this office was under the supervision of a Negro did the personnel consist of more than nineteen clerks and one messenger." The signers of the petition, whose homes as given included thirty-five states, in a letter to members of Congress enclosing the petition, declared: "This petition does not come from any political reaction, nor was it instigated by southern prejudice, Northerners, Southeaners, Easterners, Westerners, Democrats and Republicans alike have set their signs ture thereto. "In times of war it was thought inadvisable to put Negro officers in charge of white troops. In times of peace it would certainly be inexpedient to give Negroes jurisdiction over white citizens." Short Course of Domestic Science. (By The Negro Associated Press.) (By The Negro Associated Press.) Plateau, Miss., April—The Mobile County Training school has planned a Short Course in Canning for the season. More than sixty girls taking Domestic science and the women of the community will be given an opportunity to learn canning and preserving. The teachers who will attend the summer session for Teachers will be given the course as it should be taught to the pupils in the county. Through the generosity of Mrs. G O. Johnson, Probation Officer of Mobile county, an Outdoor Cannery has been installed for this purpose. The school considers this a great opportunity and blessing by which it may teach an industry so much needed in the homes. Other gists to the school are fifty Morning Hour song books coming from the Lend A Hand Book Mission of Boston, Mass., and fifty-five dollars worth of library books given by the friends of the school.

New York. April 22,—The N A. A.C, B. hasiseued a state ment of Walter F. White, Its As sistant Secretary, who hat made several Investigations of peonage in the South, and com ments as follows on the case: brought to light in Jasper coun: ty, Georgia: Asan isolated case, the Jas per county murder of at leas! eleven Negroes becausethe y threatened to reveal peonage conditions there, isnot as impor tant as the fact that it is indica: tive of a wide-spread and closely organized system inthe South, Horrible asthe facts are, they can be duplicated in every South: erners state, The Mississippi delta region embracing the statesof Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, western Tennessee and eastern Texas, {s built on system of debptslavery, In october, 1919, for example, the newspapers of the couatry told of a vicious massacre plot, fortunately discovered in a4- vance, which Negroes in Phillips county, Aansas, had planned to kill all of the white people and seize their land. { was sent tnere to investigate the report and found that there was no basis in fact for the massacre story. A groupof Negro peons had banded themselves togeth+r tu raise enough money by pooling membership duesto employ a white lawyer to carry one of the eases of exploitation to court. The colored men hoped that other cases would be settled based ont he decision rendered in the test case. Tne land-own- ers concocted a fantastic story about a massacre, organized mobs who slaughtered an un- known number of Negroes in cold blood and then sentenced twelve men todeathand 67 to long prison tems, The Nation- al Association has defended tnese men sintethen and the cases are yet pending. “In January of this year, Henry Lowry, a Colored ma n,, was burned todeath in most horrible fashion at Nodena, Ark,, followinga dispute {ts the landowner who had been robbing Lowry, in which fight Lowry killed in self-defense the land- owrer. “Many more cases can be cit- ed equally flagrant. Last Sep- tember, I presented In person to a representative of the Depart- ment of Justice at Washington, evidence of several peonage cases in Georgia which led toa statement later by Hooper Alex- ander, United States District Attorney of Northern Georgia. in which* he declared that al- most unbeliev able horrible con- ditions existed in that State in the treatment of Negroes. The Department of Justice has the authority to investizate these peonage states and to punish the perpetrators, Failure to do so will mean a still greater distur- banee of labor and a loss not to the Negro alone but to the South and America.” Stars In Their Line Rewarded.
