Mr. J. R. Johnston,
By his untiring efforts and push, we are able to present to the public the above likeness as a business man and now founder of the People's Undertaking Company, of which he is President, which is proving to be one of the best in the city. It is now located in its new home at 1155 Wabash Avenue, where spendid arrangements have made the place convenient and attractive. A beautiful front yard now being graded and shrubbery planted, front porch with lights and doors which lead into a private office for the president and his customers and into the well arranged chapel, where funeral services can be had—in the back of this department is the a tar and back of the altar is an oil painting by Mr. Andrew Waters, "Why Weepest Thou," showing a Negro woman sitting by a pool in the mountain after losing her only child and the Master standing with Irs sympathetic hand stretched over her as a Comforter. The show room and the embalming room make it a very unique place for the company and its customers. His love for fellowship has drawn him into the St. Paul A. M. E. Church, Masons to the 32nd degree, Oddfellows, Pythian to the Uniform Rank, Charter member
of the Peerless Princess Lodge of Elks and served one year as President, American Woodman, National of Topeka. He gives his development thus far to his wife and these organizations. He owns 10 ots and 4 houses, was formerly connected with the Busy Corner Barber Shop, soft drinks and cigar store, which stood as the leading place in the city for years. He is the son of the memorable Johnston family, whose mother now is 93 years old and whose father was hurt on the 16th of last March by a spirited horse running away and throwing him from the buggy and crushing his side, which caused his death; if he had lived until the 10th of August, he would have been 104 years old. Mr. Johnston is trustee of the World's Wonder Oil and Gas Co., which has founded one of the leading Negro Insurance Companies of this country and at their next meeting they are planning to establish a bank.
Mrs. J. R. Johnston, his most valuable help, is past counselor of Court of Calanthe and Princess of S. M. T.
The public is asked to visit the new home of his company at 1155 Wabash and to sustain this necessary business enterprise, where success has been enjoyed and where business is known and practiced in a most courteous manner.
The following letter will show you how we do business:

World Wide Stateman
Ship-For President
Harding.
Washington, D. C., July. 22
President Harding has entered the field of worldwide statismanship. His invitation to the various powers to hold a conference on the subject of disarmament has met with a quick and hearty response.
This tremendous subject, which has been working its way forward for a number of years, is about to be considered in Washington. It is a subject that affects every citizen, and the course of the general program will be watched with the greatest interest.
The President's opposition to the consideration of the bonus bill under the present economic strain, has been successful, and the majority of the soldiers are willing to look at the matter from the Administration point of view.
These big questions together with the consideration of the tariff, have somewhat overshadowed the matters in which Colored Americans are vitally interested. However, there is no letting up of the leaders in promoting the interests that affect the race.
There is a real conspiracy on in Concerns against giving the Colored Americans a square deal. It is not all from the source that might be expected. The Associated Negro Press has learned from authoritative sources that there are men in Congress, some of whom have Colored constituents in large numbers, who have been elected on the Republican ticket, who are double-crossing both the President, and the Colored people. It is known that the President is pretty well disguised with that class of "st-teman" and it is an open secret that the Chief Executive does not take kindly to the idea of having all criticism directed to him. There are a number of these already on the "black list."
Marcus Garvey Is Back.
(Mr The Associated Negro Press)
New York City, July 22—Marcus Garvey is back! The founder and head of the <u>Universal Negro Improvement Association</u> is once more on American soil, after an abgence of several months.
Mr. Garvey was delayed several months in his return to the United States by governmental complications. Some time ago the Associated Negro Press stated that efforts were being made to keep the U. N. I. A., chief from returning to the states on the grounds of being "an undersirable citizen."
It can be authoritatively stated that such was the plan. The matter was taken up with the Department of Justice and the State Department by the General Counsel of the Garvey movement, William C. Matthews, of Boston and aided by the assistant counsellors of the movement, they were successful in producing evidence to show that the work of the organization is quite entirely in line with the principles upon which the American government was founded. No demonstration was permitted by the officers of the organization when Mr. Garvey reached New York, but a great mass meeting was held in Liberty Hall following his return.
Your Chance To
TULSA, OKLA. (Special) July 22 S. D. Hooker, Chairman of the Colored citizens relief committee has just issued an appeal to the general public for help in its work to bring a return of normal living conditions, among Colored people in this city. Thousands of the people are now living in tents and in such other improvised homes as can be given them by the local Colored committee. Unfortunately, the Colored have been left to their own resources despite the general plan for relief. Therefore, the committee asserts that the relief must be immediate else the coming Winter season will find great distress and suffering among our Colored population. Money, food and clothing are requested by the committee and sames can be sent to
EVIDENCE AGAINST TULSA COPS DUR ING, THE RIOT
Overseas Veteran Declares Policeman Told Him To War on
TULSA, OKLA, July 15—The state this afternoon rested its case on this first count on which it has introduced evidence against chief of Police John A. Gustafson, suspended and on trial for removal. The defense asked that the charge be quashed. It argued the chief of failure to do his duty in stopping and preventing the race riot. There are three other counts against the chief on which the state is expected to offer evidence when a ruling is made on the riot charge.
Laurel Buck, a bricklaver and overseen veterin, tried that, when he went to the police station after the outbreak of the riot and asked to be sworn in as a special officer he was told by a policeman he was not needed there, but that he should get a gun and take part in the action against the Negroes.
Fire Destruction By Officers Back also that specified that on the morning of June 17, following, the night of race war, he saw two policemen keeping a crowd back from the edge of the Negro district while two other officers went down a Negro street, smashing in plate glass windows and entering the buildings. He raid that after the officers emerged from, each building it burst into flames. He said he had seen these officers many times and thought he could identify them, but when asked if he was ready to go, to the station to identify them he said he was not certain he could do it.
I. Buck, father of Laurel Buck, testified he went to the Negro district on the morning of June 1 intending to save two buildings which he owned but was detained by a police man who told him he "had no business building buildings for Negroes to live in." The defense moved to strike this testimony but but the court let it stand.
Buck said he tried to get by later and the same officer, stopped him. "The policeman told me that if I didn't want to get my head-shot off I had better leave so I did," the witness testified. He said the buildings later were burned.

His 2 year old step-daughter, clinging to the mother was covered with blood. The evidence gathered here and there showed that his wife had, left him several times and even sold the household be ongings without his knowledge on one occasion. He had tried to help his mental condition by telling his troubles and the tragedy was delayed by his friends' advice from time laid by his friends' advice from time to time, but some unkind person to the welfare of society, told him that his wife was again in the city and he responded, speedily to the evil resolution that was fixed in his mind and today the People's Undertaking Company is holding two bodies, waiting the orders of relatives and friends.

No Market For Cotton.
NEW'BEDFORD., MASS., July 22 Outside of a very few odd spot lots and occasional small sales at distressed prices there was practically no activity at all in the extra staple cotton market here during the past week. Interest was at a low ebb, and many of the mill treasures, either because of the nearness of the end of the quarter or a determination to await the government crop, report before making any further cotton pur chases, were unwilling even to consider especially low-priced offerings and declared they would not buy any more cotton now no matter what the price.

A Splendid Faculty And Anxious Students. ENROLLMENT MUCH INCREASED.

The, Summer School held at the Topeka Industrial Institute July 6 was quite a success even beyond that of last year.
The very efficient faculty composed of Dr. J. M. Girlev, director of Christian Education, Dr. E. M. Moore of Pittsburg, Penn., director of Nerro religious and social work in the North, Drs. Denton and Sharp professors in the Baptist Theological Seminary of Kansas City, Kans. In addition to these regular teachers, several of the brethren took important parts on the program.
An anxious body of earnest seekers after truth met the faculty for about ten hours each day.
The Round Table Talk conducted by Prof. Bridgeforth was especially helpful to all. . .
Ex-Principal Carter and Rev. Hillman, both now of California, gave very helpful addresses.
The enrollment was much beyond that of last year.
Doctor Van-Lue deserves special mention in speaking of the Summer School.
This enlisted idea was born in his forty's brain and materialized through his unrising efforts. Principal Bridgeforth however, heartily co-operated with him.
Moreover, our stay was made pleasant as well as profitable through the efforts of Mr. Bridgeforth, our congenial matron. Mrs. Johnson and the faithful young men and women of the dining room.
A brief business session was held in which Missionary Van Lue was made by vote the Director of the Summer School and J. W. Haves. Sen. It was also voted that instead of 5 davs' school next year that we have ten days beginning Monday after the 2nd Sunday in July 1922.

We are sure more than a hundred persons enjoyed some of this wonderful evening. The out of town guests in receiving line with Mrs. P. J. Coleman and Mrs. W. A. Bettis at the head did their part to the occasion as having the 18 or 20 visitors, who were visiting different friends in the city know each guest. Mrs. Brown certainly saw that everyone was served and Miss Hurst Kedaked several lines of guests. Punch, ice cream, cake and candies were served in abundance.

NEWARK, N.J., July 22—(Special) New Jersey Colored Republicans have gone on record of endorsing only such candidates for public office who prove themselves true friends of the people, and they will accept no political favors from their United States Senators until after such a time as the S nators rescind from the endorsement of a candidate for office who was recommended for office without the state organization endorsement.
These facts were brot out in the monthly meeting of the Colored Republican State Committee, of which Isaac H. Nutter of Atlantic City is Chairman. There was an election of officers at the meeting at which Mr. Nutter was re-elected unanimously. The state committee is an organization which meets once ecal month in a principal city of the state representatives being present from every country of the state where Colored people's reside.
There was a remarkable spirit of politica independence prevalent in the meeting and the delegates went on record of opposing any policy of the Harding Adminstration that refuses to appoint Colored people in the South, or deny the citizens of that section protection and equal rights under the law.
One of the speakers at the gathering was Nahum Daniel Brascher of Chicago. Editor in Chief of The Associated Negro Press. Mr. Brascher has been in Washington for four months where he has studied closely the progress of the new administration. He declared: "There can be no doubt about the sincerity of purpose of President Harding. He is being badly advised in some quarters, however, and unfairly supported in others. Not all opposition is from southern Democrats. There are some northern Republicans in Congress who are frilling to properly support the President. All political hypocrisy must be exposed and denounced."
Mrs. B. J. Davis of Atlanta, Ga., was a visitor.

PHILADELPHIA, PA., July 22—Here in the "Cradle of Liberty" there is a new vision of life. The people are seeing that the political bosser have been using them for catpaws, goats and all the other by-products of "good things" and they are deter mining that henceforth and forever there shall be a new deal.
It is a well known fact, that Phila delphia, with all of its tremendous Colored population, and its fine herd age of pioneer citizenship, gets less political recognition than any other of the large cities in the East.
This awakening is not really new it started some time ago, but is beginning to function now, in a manner that bespeaks real success. Publicity is doing it backed up by organization. Philadelphia has been arriving on a real publicity campaign through its newspapers, and so people have been organizing in way that makes old timers sit up and take notice.
The largest and most important political organization in the city is the Citizens' Republican Club, which is its own home. The President of the Club is Edward W. Henry, a business man and lawyer. But he is more is a natural born leader, with a personality, and the confidence of the people. Mr. Henry is even more. he is frank and independent. Good mixer and sticks to his friends. Edward W. Henry is one real big son for the Philadelphia awaken. His friends, are urging him to a candidate for Magistrate which will probably consent to do.
then there is a big business awakening in Philadelphia. Brown and vens, the bankers, are solid rocks this foundation. They have desirated what can be done by co-operation. Not only have they build the successful bank, the Dunbaratro, backed the Quality Amuse- t Company and enlisted exten- holdings in New York City, but have personally identified them with the civic and political press of the city, Andrew F. Stev.

These examples briefly tell, certainly only in part, why the country is hearing things from the "City of Brother y Love." They say they are just starting, one may well believe it. If the city does all the things in the program for the next five years, look out!
Is there any wonder then, that these people are alive to the political needs of he people? as it any wonder that they do not propose to be "on the outside looking in?" Their example in accomplishments may well serve other cities. Philadelphia to day is a beacon light.

law of this country {s supported and
the greatest violators are the officers
in many cases. They are sworn, citl-
zens, who should heve had the country
at heart before taking the gath; and
the orth is only # revelation of the

because he is the susttiner of the
law, which guarantees 1 fe to every

that a long free breath might be
drawn in safetv, because of the pro-
tection assured by the law under his
supervision. He needs to know the
lrw, because then he would know
freedom and its blessings to human-
itv. He wou'd see a ptosperous peo-
ple; a government supporting people
and strong enough with confidgnce in
the eafety assured them to, want to
maintain such a civilization. What
kind of a civilization would America
soon witness with such, protection aa
given by the officers at Tulse, and
evervwhere, where you hear of mobs,
lynchings, ku klu kans atid other
organized forms of destruction “of,
Jaw und order? From what source
will the safety of the people come
when the opinion of & community {s|

organize something stronger than
the law? It mav be a sweet rnd
hasty revenge but it tears a long
and Ineurable wound on the strong
erm of the law, which weans to slow-
Iv bleed every drop of integrity out
ef it. Think sober y over the grad-
unl slip of civilization, when the chief’
officers refuse to take steps t> protect
law and order. but adviséd those who
thought it right to maintain law and

real ond join the mob of ‘destruction?
The Negro in this instance lost many
