Birmingham, Ala.—Under the heading, "Racial Supremacy," the Birmingham Age-Herald, one of the South's leading dailies, recently published an article written by Henry M. Edmonds and prominently displayed on the editorial page, in which a "square deal" for the Negro in the South is strongly advocated.
The article in part follows:
"If America dominates the League of Nations, it must be for the benefit of the League of Nations, for the service of our weaker brothers among the nations of the earth. If America excludes
QUIET IN CHICAGO, RACES TO CONFER
Colored people just from Chicago who had an opportunity to study the cause and effect of the race riots at close range emphatically assert that members of the race did themselves proud the same as those living in Washington when white hoodlums invaded what is known as the "black belt" and Negroes were forced to protect themselves.
other peoples from her shores, it must be that we shall have a little more time and a little better chance to prepare ourselves for the fullest and the widest service.
"If America keeps the Negro from voting, it must be not because he is black and we are white. * * * White and black alike ought to be made to meet the conditions and when those conditions are met, white and black alike ought to enjoy the franchises of their country.
"The shibboleth, white supremacy, will become a stench in the nostrils of Almighty God, unless deep down it shall refer to character and fitness, and unless we who enjoy it shall be able to say with Jesus Christ: I am among you as one that serveth.

Many recently arriving from the "Windy City" assert without fear of concession that the casualty list of the cities is much greater than that of the colored, and that the daily press failed to give an account of the numerous fatalities in which white aggressors were victims.
The indicting of seventeen Negroes charged with rioting and murder is re-elected a power of politics by many in Chicago, and is supported. The State Attorney, who is active in securing indictments against colored people, was a candidate for Mayor last spring and it is believed that Thompson was re-elected by the colored vote. Indicting colored men of first taking up the cases charged with inciting riot is re-elected as a case of "sour grapes."
The best advice from Chicago are the 6,000 men—6,000 State troops, 1,000 men and 1,000 deputy sheriffs from the "black belt" are expected in the district for at least an hour. By this time it is hoped that conditions will prevail.
It is reported that a committee prominent white and colored will meet and try to adjust the and industrial problems which are largely responsible for the racial misunderstandings.

"The Anglo-Saxon is certainly at this time upon the throne, but it is a shallow and thoughtless man who would make it an occasion for boasting. The very processes and purposes of his upliftment rather make it a time for dedication to a high and holy calling. The Anglo-Saxon is king, because in his personal and national life he has achieved the clearest notion of what government ought to mean. He is king because he has unhorsed-kings. He is king because he has perceived the law that all power, all authority, all knowledge, all wealth must be bent to the common good.
"And if he has come by that path, he has come for that purpose. He has been lifted up in order that he shall serve the ends of the earth. Now when he forgets how and why he has been exalted, that hour shall he begin to fall."
ABYSSIAN PRINCE
SAILS FOR AFRICA
Prince Dedjas Match Nadao, head of the Abyssinian mission, sailed on the Martha Washington from Hokoken Sunday afternoon. He refused to make a statement to newspaper men who tried to interview him, both on the pier and aboard the ship. His secretary said the Prince was not to be disturbed and that no statement would be forthcoming.
Officials at the port of embarkation were not aware that the Prince was to sail on the Martha Washington until an hour and a half before she was due to leave. Word came from Manhattan then that the head of the Abyssinian Mission would sail for home.
A suite was ready for him and his baggage was taken care of when he arrived.
demands of the occasion. The outstanding feature of the week was the excellent work of the Parent's League, representing 20,000 of the substantial colored citizens of Washington. This is the most powerful organization among the colored people, and its herculean efforts for the restoration of law and order and its acknowledged influence in checking the righteous wrath of the Negroes at a critical juncture of the riot, have been warmly commended at the White House by the District Commissioners, the Chief of Police and others high in authority, and all good citizens of the capital carefully concele the indebtedness of the entire District to this potent organization for its splendid labor in behalf of law and order.
The latest outcome of the situation is the formation of a Central Advisory Committee by representative colored citizens, the function of which is to collate and present to Congress and to the country the exact facts in connection with the causes which led up to this riot, to prepare a comprehensive survey of the race relations in the District of Columbia, and to make some practical recommendations looking to the betterment of the civic status of the more than 100,000 colored citizens of the capital.
Prof John R. Hawkins is chairman of the general committee, with Dr. W. H. Wilson, secretary, Dr. Emmett J. Scott is chairman of the committee on publicity, Dr. Carter G. Woodson heads the committee on Ways and Means. Meetings for the present are being held Monday evenings at the Y. M. C. A.

The only colored women's motor corps in the world is that of the Hayward Unit, a branch of the National League for Women's Service in New York City, and it has rendered valiant service in entertaining colored soldiers lying wounded in New York hospitals.
With the work of the Hayward Unit may not be as extensive or as far reaching as that of other departments in which personal service and results are appreciated it is excelled by none.

Of the hundred thousand men welcomed by the Haywood Unit, the majority are natives of Georgia, Alabama, Missouri, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Tennessee.
Forty members of the motor corps devote a large part of their time to the soldiers. With Capt. Sadie Leavelle directing, Lieut. Mae Kemp, Sergeants Murray and Anna Reid head the organization.
Three ambulances, two busses and a dozen cars owned by members are used in the transportation service. Mr. Harry Payne Whitney, a member of the National League, donated three motors for the use of the Hayward Unit. Every day the trim khaki colored ambulances may be seen standing in front of hospital entrances, ready for a load of comvalesents to be taken to the races at Sheepshead or Jamaica, to a baseball game at the Polo Grounds, or on a "seeing New York tour." Chinatown, Lafayette Theatre, the Ghego, Wall Street, Riverside Drive, Coney Island are interesting sight for the boy who has never before crossed the Mason Dixon Lane. The Hayward Unit maintains headquarters at 200 West 139th street. Comfortable rest rooms for reading, writing and relaxation are provided, and a time piano, player-piano, and victoria are placed at the disposal of visiting soldiers.
GARVEY PUT IN TOMBS.
Assistant District Attorney Kilroe brought action in the Tombia Court Tuesday for criminal libel against Marcus Garvey, thirty-two, a colored editor living at 238 West 131st street, who says he is in a native of Jamaica and not a United States citizen. Mr. Kilroe charges that Garvey caused to be published in a paper on August 2 an article headed "Two Negro Crooks Use Office of Deputy District Attorney to Save Themself." This article, Mr. Kilroe alleges, exposed him to the "hatred, contempt and ridicule" of the readers of that paper. Garvey was held Tuesday by Magistrate Simpson in $3,000 hall for examination Thursday.
Following are editorials from the Newark Evening News and the Seattle (Washington) Post-Intelligencer, which give an idea of how the East and West generally regard the recent race riots:
"The disgrueful race riots" says the Mexican problem—the only way to help Evening News that have occurred in ourselves among the Negroes is by help Washington and Chicago are likely to ing the Negroes themselves. We reoccur wherever the two races live inquire of them law and order; they must present. An outbreak in one place be given the benefit of law and order, stimulates the race consciousness of We demand individual responsibility; people elsewhere, whites and blacks we must give them individual recognition, and the only thing needed to set them. We demand decent citizenship up a disturbance is the spark for an we must treat them as citizens. We expect them to restrain their race feelings; we must restrain ours; we must train ours; we must explain the battles.
"In so far as the truth can be learned in the Chicago streets with the argument from the reports, the Chicago disturbment that the outbreaks had no imminence was begun by the whites and was diate cause and must have been inspired without justification. It may have been, by trouble makers from the outside. Al- and probably was, started by hoodlums, though propagandists have no doubt but they reflected the race feeling of the been at work the rioting in Chicago was better elements of the whites, to whom the natural sequel to the rioting in they are no credit. In Washington, also, Washington. They are not unrelated the greater part of the blame impugments nor is the almost simultaneously belongs to the writes. In all occurrence of bad blood at two distinct these disturbances the colored race is places simply a coincidence. The out-attacked for the crime, indiscretion or break in Washington was the signal for accidental happening of an individual, disturbances elsewhere. The psychol- and that is the root of the whole trouble, of the thing is as simple as pic-
Never was there a clearer case of the sins of the fathers, being visited upon the children. We have had a race problem ever since the colored people were brought here and held in slavery, and we have never faced it squarely. Every thinking man has known that this could not continue indefinitely and that we were simply heaping up trouble for ourselves by our toleration of mob violence, by our denial of the Negro's constitutional rights, and by our failing to provide him with the opportunities needed for his development in the citizenship, granted to him.
A half century of neglect, mistreatment, lynch law and unlawful discrimination has brought its accumulated amities to a head. For this the white races must accept the blame. The Negro is what they have made him, or neglected to make him. If he is ignorant, cocky and bellicose, that is his misfortune as much as it is his fate, and who can say that any other human being, with the same history and the same grievances, would not be the same? His attitude of mind and spirit is perfectly understandable. It is a normal outcome of circumstances.
"There is no chance that the situation will improve until the write race alters its attitude toward the colored race. Its urge on for days in the capital of this whole treatment of the Negro has been a record of exploitation, except, of course, for individual cases. It has discriminated against him at every turn. All it has wanted of him has been his labor, and it has wanted that at a cheap price. It has never treated him fairly. He has not been decretely housed, properly trained or suitably prepared for the citizenship given to him. He has been treated as a race and not as an individual."
The most important problem is with the
Mexican problem—the only way to help ourselves among the Negroes is by helping the Negroes themselves. We require of them law and order; they must be given the benefit of law and order. We demand individual responsibility; we must give them individual recognition. We demand decent citizenship we must treat them as citizens. We expect them to restrain their race feelings; we must restrain ours.
"In so far as the truth can be learned from the reports, the Chicago disturbance was begun by the whites and was without justification. It may have been, and probably was, started by hoodlums, but they reflected the race feeling of the better elements of the whites, to whom they are no credit. In Washington, also, the greater part of the blame impassionably belongs to the writers. In all these disturbances the colored race is attacked for the crime, indiscretion or accidental happening of an individual, and that is the root of the whole trouble.
"Justice is the key to the problem, and this has always been denied to the colored people as a race. If these disturbances are to be stopped, the guilty must be punished individually and punished adequately for their offenses. Public sentiment must express itself in uninquivable terms, regardless of race.
"But merely to allay the present feeling and check the prevailing disorders will be only a stop-gap. We must go deeper than that, recognizing that the Negro problem is a real problem, as serious a problem as this country has to deal with, and resolving to solve it. The colored race must be given the fair treatment to which it is entitled by law, ethics and reason."
Under the caption, "Riots and Democracy," the Post-Intelligence says:
"The race riots which have been gonation must make interesting reaing for the people of Europe, who look upon us, or at least our administration, at the bodyguard of democracy and the battles for oppressed peoples. If they have accepted all that our spokesmen have said at its word value, they cannot be but puzzled that such things could be under the very eye of democracy's leader. If the world is to be made safe for democracy by the United States, democracy cannot very well hunt niggers on the streets of our capital, at least without setting the rest of the world a bad example."
"The trouble in Washington is the old one. Some Negro committed an offense against a white woman, or at least is accused of an offense. But to the Lithuanian, the Savoyard or Turk it will be at some apparent that all the Negroes of Washington did not commit the offense, and the idea that, become a man is of the same epidermal that as the offender he should be mutilated (continued on P in Part 2)
Pennsylvania "Red Caps" Form Brotherhood of Railway Station Attendants
The first definite step to unionize colored station attendants, more familiarly known as "red caps" in the various cities was taken Tuesday evening when colored knights of the grip who work at the Pennsylvania Station were given a charter to organize and be known as the Brotherhood of Railway Station Attendants.
The meeting was held at Lafayette Hall and the charter was turned over to the "red caps" by Hugh Frayne, general organizer of the American Federation of Labor for the Eastern District.
The officers of the new organization are Charles B. Puleston, president; Norman Sneed, financial secretary; A. J. Gary, recording secretary and E. C. Kirby, treasurer.
Those actively engaged in forming the Brotherhood of Railway Station Attendants assert that the "red caps" have organized for their own protection. It is pointed out that while the initiative has been taken by attendants at the Pennsylvania Station, it will not be long before the "red caps" of other local stations, as well as those in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Pittsburgh will take up membership in the brotherhood.
WILSON IS ASKED TO MAKE AMERICA SAFE FOR NEGRO

In May, 1918, when the Government took over the railroads as a war measure, the "red caps" at the Pennsylvania Station were granted a salary of $25 monthly, each. Of course their tips were regarded as an important financial consideration. It is said that at the Grand Central Station the colored attendants were allowed $45 each monthly and tips. Although buying Liberty Bonds on all occasions and showing more than passing interest in war work, notification was given "red caps" in New York and other cities last May that their salaries would be cut off. This aroused a big howl of protest from the local attendants, and the Pennsylvania "red caps" sent a grievance committee, composed of E. C. Kirby and O. H. Waters to Washington to put their case before Director of Railroads Hines and his associates, who promised to give the matter immediate consideration.
Last June a decision was made by the Wage Board at Washington holding that "red caps" did not come under General Order 27, which relates to the employment of station attendants. In fact, it was ruled that "red caps" are not station attendants and that in the beginning when Mr. McAdoe was Director General of Railroads a mistake had been made in classifying "red caps" as such.
At this time it is said that thirty colored attendants at the Pennsylvania Station receive $19.75 each monthly as salaries, while 100 or more are given $1 a month and have to depend solely on tips. A similar condition is said to exist at the Grand Central Terminal.
Those who have become members of the Brotherhood of Railway Station Attendants say it is a difficult matter for a "red cap" to make a good living on tips alone, all the year round.
APPROPRIATE $405,020 FOR
PRAIRIE VIEW COLLEGE
(Special to THE NEW YORK ACE)
PRAIRIE VIEW, TEX.-The Legislature of the State of Texas which closed its special session July 22, did a generous thing when it appropriated $405,020 for Prairie View, the State college for Negroes. This is the largest appropriation in the history of the schoolland is in fact the largest appropriation ever made by any southern State to any Negro institution.
This institution is beautifully situated at Prairie View, 46 miles from Houston and has a farming estate of 1400 acres.

Among those to receive medals from the French Sunday at sixty-ninth Regiment Armory was Mrs. Ida Battles, whose son, Corporal Fletcher Battles of the old 15th, gave his life in battle to help make the world safe for democracy. Mrs. Battles was handed the Croix de Guerre by Major Ulysse Breton of the French Commission. Twenty-odd other awards were made by the French.

We hereby appeal to you to take action against mob violence, in behalf of humanity at home; and to give the Negro the rights and privileges that he as an American citizen. You have pleaded the cause of humanity for Europe, now let charity begin at home. The recent race war in Washington is indicative of the Negro's determination to defend himself since he is denied the protection of the law. Our Government exacts every duty of the Negro as a citizen, even to making the supreme sacrifice, but in turn denies him every right as a citizen, even the defending of his life. You commended us to fight and die to help "make the world safe for democracy," and now we ask you to make America safe for us. At your command, we fought and might other races and nations might be free, and we have resolved that we shall share the fruits of our sacrifice and death. We will not request a submit to the quasal slavery, lynchings and burning we endured before the world war. You yourself have taught us by your preachments during the world war that liberty and freedom are dearer than life itself; and by this doctrine we stand ready to live or die at home, the same as you bade us do in France. In the name of God and Justice, Mr. President, we plead with you to make ours a land of real democracy.

MINISTERS' CONFERENCE AT HAMPTON INSTITUTE
(Special to The New York Age)
HAMPTON, VA.—The sixth annual meeting of the Ministers' Conference of Hampton Institute brought together 179 ministers, including 109 religious leaders from rural districts or small towns, from Virginia, 101; North Carolina, 73; and one each from South Carolina, West Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, and Mississippi. In 1918 the enrollment was 125, including 64 men from rural districts.
The denominations were represented as follows: Baptist (all branches), 96; A. M. E., 38; A. M. E. Zion, 16; Protestant, 9; Colored M. E., 4; Protestant Episcopal, 11; Christian, 1; Reformed Zion Union Apostolic, 1; Congregational, 3; United Presbyterian, 1; and United Holy Church of America, 3.
Those who delivered conference lectures were: The Rev. Dr. E. R. Carter, pastor of Friendship Baptist Church Atlanta, Ga.; Dr. James Hardy Dillard, Charlottesville, Va.; president of the Jeanes and Slater Boards; Dr. Jesse E. Moorland, Washington, D. C., secretary of the Colored Men's Department, International Committee of the Y. M. C. A. the Rev. Dr. Reverdy C. Ransom, Philadelphia, editor of the A. M. E. Church Review; the Rev. Dr. Ralph W. Sockman, pastor of Madison Avenue M. E Church, New York; and Dr. Matthew R. McNutt, New York, of the Department of Country Church Work, Presbyterian Board of Home Missions.
The Ministers' Conference of Hampton Institute was organized to afford an opportunity to ministers of all nominations to meet for a few days of study and discussion of the great common problems which they are facing in their work.
The officers of the conference follow A. A. Graham, Phocibus, Va., president: G. W. Jimmerson, Newport News, Va. L. L. Downing, Roanoke, Va., M. L. Davis, Richmond, Va., S. S. Morris, Norfolk, Va., D. J. Lee, Norfolk, Va. J. T. Johnson, Hampton, Va., A. A. Hector, Richmond, Va., and R. E. Ricks, Newark, N. J., vice-presidents: Lawrence Feminger, Hampton Institute, Va., executive secretary, and W. R. Howerton, Hampton, Va., recording secretary.
NO JUSTIFICATION.
When all is said and noe no real difference of interest exists between white and black Americans, and there is no justification for such outbreaks as the Washington riot. If each race will remember that this country belongs to both, and that the color of skin is an accident of birth, the tough white man cannot stir up trouble, nor can the tough black man by any act of his, light the conflagration that threatens to destroy their common society. Our only plea on behalf of the Colored man is "give him tolerance and justice." Nothing more nor less—Cleveland Advocate.
NO LONGER A TARGET
Even as Ireland is asking England to "hands off," and China suggests that Japan should stay in her own back yard; and labor in the United States is waging war on capital; the Negro or Colored Americans are deciding that no longer will they be the target at which all the people should hurl their prejudices, and that America for whom they have fought, bled and died shall at least allow them a fair chance for existence.—California Eagle.
TO STEM THE TIDE.
It is especially desirable that the better thinking of our people get together throughout the country and use their influence to the utmost for the purpose of bringing home to all those of the race that are reachable the infinite necessity of maintaining a sober and intelligent disposition toward the opposite race and thereby assist most materially the efforts that are surely being put forth by the proper authorities to stem what seems to be a steadily rising tide of racist unrest. It would be a step in the right direction.—Indianapolis Pressman.
SOUTHERN PROPAGANDA
The Associated Press is a strong factor in stirring up race feeling and hatred. Whether it is a part of this propaganda, the writer is not able to truthfully state, but suffice it to say that the way the news stories are reported, such as "bush, Negro" "assaults on white women," surely has had the desired effect. Special correspondents and news reporters for the great metropolitan dailies usually follow the same line with suggested reports, all of which is food for this southern propaganda--St. Louis Argus.

OPPOSING FORCES
The history of races and individuals fully illustrates how men grow mad and rockless as they press on and go toward, self-destruction, and how they shut divinity out of their calculations only to repent when it is too late. We are evidently nearing some unknown the strong is on the throat of the weak, for in every country the hand of or brother. It simply cannot last, for the praying people of the land have unshaken confidence in God, and are hourly expecting the dawn of a better day.—Georgia Baptist.

CRIMINAL CASE REVERSED
IN PETERSBURG COURT
(Special to The New York Am)
Petersburg, Va.-Nothing of a tangible character resulted in the trial of James R. Harrison, a prominent white business man and social leader of this city, charged with attempted criminal assault on Mrs. Robt. Myers, colored, of St. Mathew street and Chiquapin avenue. The case came up in the Hustings Court a few days ago. It has attracted wide interest, especially since Harrison was sentenced to thirty days in the city jail by the police justice when the case was heard by him early in May.
The colored people have confidently expected either a confirmation of this sentence or the full penalty of the law. And then the circumstances attending the case of a colored man named Cole, who was tried on a similar charge about two years ago, faxed by many as proof that the present trial would result in conviction in the Haltings Court. In this case Cole was pursued by men in automobiles and otherwise, shot at by his pursuers, and when finally apprehended was lodged in jail, tried, convicted and electrocuted possibly inside of a fortnight. In the case of Harrison, however, he enjoyed his liberty, on bail of course. But special attention is called to the attitude of the public which made this possible. No threats were made or any effort to do other than await the orderly processes of the court. In the meantime the defendant associated with himself in business a very prominent churchman and took to himself a better half. Myers endeavored to employ counsel to assist the prosecution in Petersburg without success and was forced to go to Richmond, where he got Attorney Harry Smith of the firm of Windenberg & Smith. Mr. Myers was assisted by the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to the extent of $100 to secure counsel. Attorney Smith made a strong plea for justice and right, but the jury, after being out 30 minutes, brought in a verdict of not guilty.
In course of the argument one of the attorneys for the defense attacked Dr. Kobt. E. Burton, president of the local branch of the National Association, charging him with being responsible for stirring the colored people up and with advancing money for Harrison's prosecution. Of course, although Dr. Burton is admitted to be the greatest race man in Petersburg, he has done nothing in this case on his own responsibility.
At the conclusion of the trial Judge Mullen lectured the spectators and reminded them that justice had always been meted out impartially, in his court, and advised that they go quietly to their homes, apply themselves diligently to the co-operative efforts to promote harmony between the races and forget the incident of the trial, and that they should refrain from comment on the trial either one way or the other.
DR. WINSEY'S WILL.
Baltimore, Md.—The will of Dr. Whitfield Winsey, the oldest Negro physician here, leaves two houses to his daughter, Bertha Winsey, absolute. She is named as executrix without bond. His son, Herbert Winsey, is given the testator's gold watch and chain. The daughter is also directed to pay all just debts and divide the income from the remaining property equally between her and her brother. An old house dealer is left alone. The testator directs that his estate is to be family divided between Provident Hospital and the Industrial Home for Colored Girls, should his children die without loss.
NEW HOSPITAL PLANNED
FOR BALTIMORE
BATTERWORTH, Md. A campaign to raise a fund of $75,000 for the new Victory Hospital was held for two weeks. The Rev. Dr. W. H. Weaver is in charge and the headquarters are at the War Camp Community Club, 408 Orchard street. Fifty thousand dollars will be used to purchase the grounds and buildings of the Union Protestant Internaty, on Division street. The plant and equipment is said to be worth $160,000. Provident Hospital, now located on West Biddle street, will move into the new home, which will afford 125 beds. The staff will be colored, but prominent white physicians have volunteered to serve as consultants. A school for nurses will be maintained and a medical school, affiliated with Morgan College, is a probability. The Victory Hospital will be managed by nine trustees, four of whom will be colored.
A state sanitarium for colored consumptives is to be built in the northern suburbs. Plans for improving local sanitary and housing conditions among the race will be started this summer.
SUCCES&FUL SUMMER SCHOOL.
(Special to the NEW YORK AGE)
GREENSBORO, N. C.—The most successful summer school in the history of the Agricultural and Technical college closed here, having been attended by 275 teachers, from all parts of the state.
President James B. Dudley has been at the head of the institution for over 30 years, and who has much to do with the training of many of the successful men in the state, in his closing address declared that this was an age of push and work, and the man who would prepare himself and exercise common sense was the one to succeed.
During the recent session of the state Legislature a bill was passed extending the school terms in the rural districts and raising salaries for the teachers, which guarantees better work in the future. "As teachers," said President Dudley, "do all in your power to get the boys and girls in school and keep them there. In the future the man who thinks is the man who will be recognized."
A large number of noted men and women spoke. Among them were Dr. Allen Leroy Locke, of Howard University, Washington, the only member of the race to win the Rhodes Scholarship at Oxford, Eng.; L. B. Moore, Howard University; Dear Brawley, Moorehouse college, Atlanta; H. H. Long, Clark University, Atlanta; Mias L. E. Wilts, Washington; Charles Stewart, Chicago.

Racism, Va.-The Atlantic Coast
Line and the Richmond & Fredericks
burg road have jointly opened an excellent

Department of the Department of Washington, are men of ripe experience and information and should be heard. Many people will also come for the outing, the country dinner on the campus and the games. All are invited and urged to come.

RAW PROPAGANDA
The preachment of certain dangerous doctrines in the name of latter day socialism by well trained, if somewhat parrotlike, writers and talkers has become one of the features of propaganda among Negroes. These doctrines are particularly dangerous when applied to unsophisticated or half-trained intelligence, as is, the case with a Harlem sheet which professes to deal with socialism on a strictly scientific basis. The naive self-satisfaction with which these advocates of a spurious doctrine plume themselves as being the real thing would be laughable, if it did not bear so close a resemblance to the case of a child playing with matches.
Wholesale denunciation of capitalism with the incitement of unrest with all existing social institutions, carried out to their logical outcome, mean the uprooting of the existing institutions of law and order and the substitution of anarchy and mob rule. The Negroes in this country have suffered too much from mob violence to lend a willing ear to any policy that would extend its sway to any further extent.
The preachers of this doctrine of force as applied to socialism are liable to become a source of danger to the community in which they carry on their propaganda, unless the futility of their pretensions is exposed and the fallacy of their cure-all for social illness demonstrated by the light of common sense and the teachings of history.
The promise of an equal division of the good things of life, with the shifting of all responsibility for provision for the future to a paternal government may appeal to the great majority of the struggleers for a bare existence. A lessening of the hours for work to the point of almost nothing, with a corresponding increase of the time for leisure and relaxation, might well dazzle the vision of the average worker, but with the slacking of production and the increased prices of necessities, it would be found that the proletariat, as the masses of the workers are styled, would be the chief sufferers from such changes. The trouble is that the reduction of the glittering promises of socialism to the hard terms of actual performance is an operation that has wrecked the hopes of many an enthusiast of the cause.
The present day leaders of socialism appeal to the most passions of mankind, in their stirring up of envy and class hatred against not only the capitalists, but against those who are making the best of present conditions, when they contemptiously stale the homogeneity. Their present propaganda embrages all sorts of smartness and bolderness in practice, that would lead to a Russian to the destruction of all civilized government and institution, like the greater ones, out of its force and ignorance, is doing in the destruction of all habits of industry and order. This phase of revolution has had the effect of driving from the party nearly all the altitmus who saw in its tenets a move toward the betterment of mankind. The control of its policies has therefore fallen into the hands of the extremists whose policy is to rule or ruin.
The propaganda is still pursued on the old lines, with greater zeal and aggressiveness, than ever before, enlisting under its banners all those possessed by the spirit of unrest and dissatisfaction with existing conditions, as well as those mercenaries whose services failed of acceptance in either of the old parties.
Those who appeal to the doctrines of force and destruction are playing with fire, and the Negroes as a people should beware of such propaganda and such erratic agitators.
A LOGICAL CONCLUSION.
The United Irish Societies of Philadelphia, representing about 50,000 Irish Americans, at a recent meeting, "viewed with alarm the passage of the Peace Pact, made at Versailles," and declared for the immediate release of all oppressed people, "be they white, black or yellow." Some of the speakers clearly emphasized the claim that the Irish once stands against oppression everywhere and anywhere, and that
the fore it upholds the Negro in this country, who is struggling for equal political rights throughout the land. The declaration that Irish-Americans should frown on any racial discriminations and prejudices would be a logical conclusion to the valiant fight that the Irish are putting up for their own political freedom. Nevertheless, it is a step further than might have been looked for, and it serves to emphasize the genuine character of their campaign. If their plea for the redress of all oppression is broad enough to include the Negro, there is more in their platform than has characterized earlier stages of their struggle.

A special writer, styled "Special Commissioner," in the English daily called the Empire News, advances the theory that the racial troubles at several British seaports will be found to be part of a great political move fomented by colored students in that country. The term "colored" in this case is probably used to include the natives of India, Egypt and other African territories, as well as the West Indies. It is also stated that the British Government is arranging an inquiry into the troubles which resulted in bloodshed in Liverpool, Cardiff and elsewhere. In the rioting in South Wales, three persons were killed and fifteen injured, according to the same authority.
It is broadly stated that there is an enemy influence behind these outbreaks, which is interested in making out a case that British white men have hounded from their country British subjects who happen to be colored. The upset of British rule abroad is the object aimed at, it is claimed, with the black man as a tool to that end.
The conclusion of this special commissioner is that the Government must take notice, "if only to save the prestige of our race."
British "prestige" must be in a slightly precarious condition, if its preservation is dependent on anything but the strictest justice in dealing with the colored races that help to constitute the empire upon which the sun never gets.
The action reported of the Alabama Legislature in adopting a joint resolution of regret at the race riots in Washington and Chicago does not ring quite true. The Alabama legislators should save their expressions of regret for the mob violence and lynching in their own State, where unoffending Negroes are hanged and burned at the stake without a chance to strike a blow in self-defence. At least in Washington and Chicago they were given a chance to fight back for their lives.
The announcement in a news dispatch from Nashville that Governor Roberts of Tennessee had received a telegram from a Chicago newspaper, stating that many Negroes of the more industrious class who went there for war work are anxious to return South is important if true. If true, it will afford the Governor and, the people of Tennessee an opportunity to prove the truth of their oft repeated plea that the South is the best place for the Negroes and that his best friends are to be found in that section.

The voters of Harlem will have an unusual opportunity to secure able and print-positive representation in both the State and local legislature this year, if they rise to the occasion. Among those designated for choice at the primaries are Miss Margaret Smith in the 19th Assembly district and Dr. Charles H. Roberts in the 27th Admiral district. The petition is a well known Y. W. C. A. social worker, which Dr. K. Roberts serves as a social and professional member of the public in Harlem. All are held. British men in the two districts will make no mention of voting to place the names of three two candidates on the regular ticket.
A comprehensive resume of the recent race trials in Washington pools the Washington correspondent of the New York Tribune to assert that "the Negroes of this country are fostering in their own papers dangerous propaganda." He continues "This type of propaganda is most generally ascribed to two causes: The presence of Negro soldiers in France, where French women of the lower classes accepted them as equals, and the presence of an increasing number of agitators among the Negroes." This deteragatory inimulation that only "french women of the lower classes" treated the colored American soldiers as human beings is unworthy of the reputation of the Tribune. French women of all classes, including the families of the mayors and other French officials, united in extending hospitality and social courtesies to the colored officers and soldiers quartered in the various town. And this hospitality was not abused.

VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Weldon Johnson, Contributing Editors
CHICAGO'S PRESENT NEED.
Chicago's great need in the present hour is wise and unselfish leadership on the part of men and women of both races. $ ^{*} $
There was a difference between the so called causes of the riots in Washington and in Chicago; and there seems to be a probability that the results will be different.
In Washington there was race prejudice almost pure and simple. During the war Washington became the Mecca of the Southerners. They came up by the thousands and tens of thousands. It was a most important part of the war work of the present administration to provide and create good jobs for Southerners.
And so Washington was filled with Southerners. It became a Southern city. And in a way it became a more dangerous city for Negroes than Atlanta or Memphis or Birmingham. There was more in it to arouse the wrath of the. Southerner against his colored brother than in either of the aforenamed cities. For one thing, there was the equal street car accommodation. Equal street car accommodation for Negroes has always been a hard pill for the Southerner visiting Washington to swallow, but since Washington has become strictly a Southern city, the people from Dixie see no reason why they should swallow the pill at all.
And so, it needed only an excuse for the Negro-hating element to start out to put the Washington "niggers" in their place. But white mobbism in Washington got more than it was looking for; and it was glad to stop. It may sound like a strange prediction, but it is quite probable that the riots at the capital will be followed by a better feeling between the races. Like the feeling which usually follows a fight between two boys.
In Chicago there was also race prejudice; but added to race prejudice there was an element of bitter economic competition. The Negro was mobbed by whites who not only didn't like him, but who wanted to put him entirely out of the way, who wanted to take the bread absolutely out of his mouth.
Therefore, the Chicago situation is more complex and more serious than the Washington situation. Following the rioting came the announcement that the stock yards would lay off their 15,000 Negro employees; there is no doubt that the anti-Negro element will seek to have this lay off made permanent. Neither can any one help believing that this same element will seek to have Negroes thrown out of other lines of employment. The seriousness of the riots themselves will pale into insignificance if fifteen or twenty thousand Negroes in Chicago are suddenly thrown out of employment.
Having an occasional riot in which a score or so of people are killed on both sides would not be so pernicious in effect as the pressure that would reduce one-third or more of the wage-earning Negro population, of the city to poverty and beggary. For in the wake of poverty and beggary would come crime of every description.
The thing that Germany complained of most in the war was not the hard fighting which the Allies put up to her, but the process by which they reduced her to starvation.
Following this economic blockade of the Negro in Chicago will come efforts for various forms of segregation. It is likely that separate public schools will be proposed.
Segregation in Chicago will solve nothing. In fact, it will only sow the seed for more lasting discord than the riot could ever produce. It must be fought and killed now.
To meet the situation, Chicago needs wise and unselfish counsel from men and women of both races. Especially now do colored men and women of Chicago need to rise to what the hour demands of them.
Let politics, let personal jealousies, let individual gain and glory, let everything else be sunk except the permanent good of the race. In a manner, the vital interests of the whole race are now at stake in Chicago; for as Chicago acts in this crisis, the whole nation may act.
Let colored men in Chicago come together for this once, if no more, and with this one purpose, to act in union with all the wisdom with which they are endowed, and to stand shoulder to shoulder with all the strength they can command for the deepest and highest interests of the masses of their people.
DEMOCRACY AT THE DEMOCRATIC CLUB.
A mission from Abyssinia came to this country several weeks ago bearing the congratulations of their ruler to the President and people of the United States on having made the world safe for democracy. The mission was composed of a royal prince and two or three other high dignitaries.
It is more than probable that President Wilson and official Washington would have preferred that Abyssinia had sent its congratulations by mail; for it is difficult to imagine anything that would be more embarrassing to the present Administration than an official mission composed of three black Africans. However, courtesies of some sort were shown the mission.
The day neared for their departure and the mission returned to New York to take their steamer. There is no doubt that on their leaving Washington a sigh of relief went up from all members of the Administration, from the President down to the 3rd secretaries; for up to that time nothing untoward had happened.
But when the distinguished Abyssinians reached New York, General Toplakan, Consult-General of Persia, thought it would be a delicate compliment to give them a farewell dinner. As the place for this function he chose the National Democratic Club on Fifth avenue. Accordingly he arranged by telephone for a dinner for seven to take place Sunday evening.
Sunday in the afternoon the Consul-General was out automobiling with his guests, and, in passing, he drove up to the club to get some cigarettes. While in the lobby, he mentioned his dinner to a member of the club, then the complications set in. The member glanced out of the window and beheld the dusky emissaries of the Ethiopian Empire seated in the automobile. His reactions were such that he immediately called the steward of the club and registered a vigorous protest. When upon the steward informed the Consul General that the dining room of the club would not be available for the dinner.
The Persian diplomat next bethought him of the Republican Club. As the representative of a friendly nation the Consul-General is accepted for membership in both clubs. Thereupon he telephoned and was informed that the Republican Club would arrange to entertain the party. But fearing for the future of the entente cordiale between this country and Abyssinia if the Republican Club should also prove unsafe for democracy, the Consul-General thought it best not to take the risk; so he shifted the party for a third time. The last time to the Ritz-Carlton. So at 9 o'clock, or there-abouts, General Topakyan got something to eat.
We hope that the distinguished visitors did not catch on to what was going on; for if they did, we know that they did not enjoy their farewell dinner. But they could not help from knowing it the next morning when the whole story came out in the newspapers. And the affair will certainly reach the ears of the Empress, Vanditu. Nobody can tell how far-reaching will be the consequences, diplomatic and commercial, of this incident.
When the Abyssinian mission first arrived, the newspapers reported them as stating that they were not Negroes, but of Semitic extracilii. We do not know whether or not the mission made this statement, but a sorry related some years ago about the old Emperor, Menelik II, supports the belief that the statement was made. The story was that the president of Haiti sent a representative to Menelik to seek a closer union between "the two most powerful Negro governments in the world." It was said that old Menelik listened to the Haitian envoy, then told him that he sympathized with him and his people, but he did not see how a closer union between the two governments could be brought about, since the Abyssinians were not Negroes.
If the members of the mission did make the statement attributed to them by the newspapers, they evidently realize now that in the United States they all look alike.
It appears that Capt. Paul Rex Morrisey, who accompanied the mission as the representative of the President, and Mr. J. Conell Tarler, who accompanied the mission as a representative of the State Department, are very much wrought up over the affair. Capt. Morrisey declared that he intended to make a report of the matter to the President personally. We are afraid

that such action on the part of the captain will only make matters worse. How will it be possible for President Wilson to call members of the Democratic Club, many of them Southern gentlemen, to account for not allowing black men to eat in their dining room?
When the first rebuff was given at the Democratic Club, the Persian Consul-General is reported to have asked John Hines, superintendent of the club, "But do you know who these gentlemen are? Do you know they have been entertained by President Wilson?" This makes another story. Did President Wilson really sit at table with the Abyssinian mission? If he did, the press was remarkably quiet on it. We should like to know if this is true. We should like to watch the effect on the South on learning that President Wilson had outdone Roosevelt three to one by sitting down to eat with three African Negroes.
RADICALISM AND THE NEGRO
Since the Washington and Cairo about the dangerous effect the doom organizations have had on the Negro riots were due to the extent to which by the Negro. All of this is, of L. W. W.'s and the other radicals with the desire to put the Negro out. But we also hear a number of many of them who know no reason and of real radicalism than they know. In a widely published article of Howard University is quoted as Tribune:
Throughout the South, Dean tremely dangerous sensitiveness at L. W. W. agitators. He also not to question the justice of a country the right to vote but compelled the it is possible that Dean Moon for so little brain and common sense agitator to make Negro soldiers denied them the right to vote but confine if he does, he had just as well given. Does anybody consider that the idiots that it requires agitators to treat unjustly? That they are burned at the stake? That they have racy? Why the most ignorant Negro know what the letters "L, W, W." and are protesting against them.
Real radicalism has not yet to things that Negro require to day radiate the rest of the world. They are the of them more than even hundred batters wielded the Nihona Charta free. What are the things that Negro section of life, safety, property, rise to the ballot. These are things who years ago. Of course, relatively special radical thing to demand the right to speaking he is not, for the radical world. The radical world to day is not which confidant the Negro. As an end to the recent proposal of the railway roads. A proposal not looking for a ship of the roads and a share in the But there is no logical reason when the ranks of the radicals; and there is getting will eventually force them the
Since the Washington and Chicago riots, a great deal is being said about the dangerous effect the doctrines of the I. W. W. and other radical organizations have had on the Negro. In fact, it is being charged that the riots were due to the extent to which these doctrines have been accepted by the Negro. All of this is, of course, a part of the plan to put the I. W. W.'s and the other radical organizations out of business, together with the desire to put the Negro out of business along with them.
But we also hear a number of colored men echoing this piece of cant. Many of them men who know no more about the doctrines of the I. W. W. and of real radicalism than they know about the mystic rites of Lamaism.
In a widely published article even so scholarly a man as Dean Moore of Howard University is quoted as saying, we quote from the New York Tribune:
Throughout the South, Dean Moore said, he found evidences of extremely dangerous sensitiveness among Negroes, due to the activities of I. W. W. agitators. He also notgd a tendency among the Negro soldiers to question the justice of a country which in many sections denied them the right to vote but compelled them to take up arms in its defence.
It is possible that Dean Moore gives the masses of the race credit for so little brain and common sense that he thinks it requires an L. W. W. agitator to make Negro soldiers question the justice of a country which denied them the right to vote but compelled them to take arms in its defence? If he does, he had just as well give up the job of trying to teach them.
Does anybody consider that the Negroes in the United States are such idiots that it requires agitators to go around and tell them that they are treated unjustly? That they are disfanchised, "Jim Crowed," mobbed, and burned at the stake? That they have been bumcoed in the war "for democracy"? Why the most ignorant Negroes in the country, who do not even know what the letters "I, W, W" stand for, know and feel these things and are protecting against them.
Real radicalism has not yet touched the masses of the race. The things that Negroes today radical about are not considered radical by the rest of the world. They are things that were radical years ago; some of them more than ten hundred years ago; that is, when the English letters wrinkled the Ninja Charta from King John at Runnymede.
What are the things that Negroes are demanding to-day? They are protection of life, safety, property, right to trial by a jury of peers, the right to the baillet. These are things which the radicals of the world secured years ago. Of course, relatively speaking, the Negro is radical; for it is a radical thing to demand the right to vote in Mississippi. But absolutely speaking he is not, for the radical world gained the right to vote years ago. The radical world to day is not for itself concerned with the questions which confront the Negro. As an example of modern-radicalism we point to the recent proposal of the railway men for the management of the railroads. A proposal not looking for higher wages but a share in the ownership of the roads and a share in the profits.
But there is no logical reason why the Negro should not be forced into the ranks of the radicals; and there is no doubt that the treatment they are getting will eventually force them there.

To the Editor of The New York Now,
I am mad! I am mad all over! I am
smail through and through, for I am
thinking of the uncalled for, disgraff-
ful and shameful riots which were
pulled off here in the National Capital,
apparently under the aisles of the
Washington daily newspapers. These
papers should lament for having brought
up the nation's capital such a disgrace.
But they sowed the seeds of discord, and the dreadful harvest is now ripe. These papers have vied with each other in the attempt to do their country the most harm.
What will other civilized nations
think of the United States, after her
delegates took a leading part at the
peace table, talking about performing
miracles in behalf of the weaker nations
and races, when they learn of this

Colored men echoing this piece of care more about the doctrines of the I. W. W. know about the mystic rites of Lamaism, even so scholarly a man as Dean Moon, saying, we quote from the New York Moore said, he found evidences of examining Negroes, due to the activities of the tendency among the Negro soldiers, by which in many sections denied them them to take up arms in its defence.
He gives the masses of the race credence that he thinks it requires an I. W. W. W question the justice of a country which impelled them to take arms in its defence up the job of trying to teach them.
Negroes in the United States are suchigo around and tell them that they are disfranchised, "Jim Crowed," mobbed, and been bounced in the war "for democrogress in the country, who do not ever stand for, know and feel these things."
Uncheched the masses of the race. The real about are not considered radical by lines that were radical years ago; some years ago; that is, when the English from King John at Runnymede. Are demanding to-day? They are prophigh to trial by a jury of peers, the right which the radicals of the world secured taking, the Negro is radical; for it is a vote in Mississippi. But absolutely world gained the right to vote years ago; for itself concerned with the questions example of modern-radicalism we point men for the management of the rail-higher wages but a share in the owner- profits.
By the Negro should not be forced into no doubt that the treatment they are here.
shameful slaughter in the capital of the nation?
Brutal soldiers and marines were the instigation of all this strife and blood-shed here. They started in by beating colored men. But if there were any of the southern crackers among them, they soon found out that they were not hammering helpless Negroes in Mississippi or Georgia. The colored people here, as everywhere else, are endeavoring to be law-abiding citizens. But when it comes to a question of protecting their families and homes, they are Johnny-on-the-spot!
We bought Liberty Bonds; we answered our country's call to arms; we bled and died in the triples in France to uphold the honor of this country. Since the war has been fought to a successful end, and the country is now considered, to be a safe place to live in, we are going to try it.

and bludgeoned; will not appeal to those Europeans the least equipped to reason. To the dulest it will be obvious that race antipathy is at the bottom of these riots, and, inasmuch as race antipathy is discerned at the bottom of not a few of the present and past superriots in European wars, the emptiness of most of our perpetual peace platitudes will be their most impressive feature.
"Making allowances for the Russian and Polish ignorance of local affairs and for the serrapy disconnected details of these race riots that will reach Russia and Pole, what will be their disposition when they receive our protests against the programs. Can they take their resolutions which we passed with much solemnity seriously? Commence tells us that we will think the same thoughts as we would if the situations were reversed.
"Those who display so much enthusiasm for the legal forms of constitutions and covenants might well consider the facts of human nature as evidenced in these Washington riot. There is plenty of law to deal with the offending Negroes; plenty of law to protect the innocent Negroes. All the forms and all the officials are ready at hand. Still unmistakably the condition in Washington is one of anarchy, white against black. What do 'men everywhere' say to this? Are there any yearnings audible? Soldiers and sailors who fought to make the world safe for democracy are conspicuous in the mobs no doubt energetically beating up black soldiers and sailors who also fought to make the world safe for the same democracy. "Ho! Hum! What a funny world!"

Editorial comment is very free and much to the point of observation we are pleased with such pressure, and it will tend to situations, that comment little or no good as comfort the harm that is done by the other who furnishes the harm on the first page - Pittsburgh County.

THE STAGE-MUSIC-ATHLETICS
Billy King Puts Over Big Hit at Lafayette in "They're Off"
BY LESTER A. WALTON
WHEN announcement was made from the stage of the Lafayette Theatre last week that commencing Monday Billy King and company would appear in "They're Off," a sporty musical comedy, which was even a better brand of entertainment than "Over the Top," the statement was received "with a grain of salt." But after sitting through the entire performance of "They're Off" I must confess that in the second show the promises are being faithfully lived up to in every particular.
A stirring submarine scene was promised, also the novel spectacle of an aeroplane hovering over the heads of those in the audience. No one who sees "They're Off" will have good cause to complain that these features are not introduced as advertised. Besides, there is a wealth of costumes, about the most dazzling array of finery ever sported by a colored show in Harlem.
"They're Off" is a revue with a dash of the burlesque. Silk-covered limbs are recklessly shown in prodigal profusion, such as greet one's eyes at the Winter Garden. The young men (unmarried of course) seem to be having quite an ocular feast at the Lafayette nowadays.
"They're Off" is a much better constructed vehicle than "Over the Top," and is a better entertainment in many ways. The comedy as a whole is more up-to-date and palatable, and from start to finish Billy King and Billy Higgins keep the audience in good humor. Some of the situations in which they are principals are really of the side-solitizing variety.
As a producer and a comedian Billy King looms up at this time in a class by himself. After years of hard work he has come to New York and scored a big success. There is no question in my mind as to the big hit he will make over the new colored circuit with his attractions, and if his New York success does not cause him to lose his mental equilibrium, which is not likely, his immediate future looks very bright.
Ernest R. Whitman is one of the many energetic workers in the Billy King Company, and he is gradually establishing himself as a vocal favorite among Harlem theatregoers. After putting over several numbers he makes the artistic hit of the performance singing "Remember" in the last scene of the last act.
In "They're Off" songs are rendered, with marked frequency, and effectively, too. Berlina Blanks, well known to Lafayette theatregoers, starts the ball a rollin' by singing "You Can't Shake Your Shimmie Here." Laura B. Hall, while not possessing a voice of volume has one of sweetness, and wins applause in "Kiss Me." Mme. Rosa L. Tyler makes it evident in the last act that she is still in the ring by singing the "Kiss Waltz." One of the best workers in the company is Theresa Burroughs Brooks, who rightly deserves the title of "Dainty Theresa." It falls to her lot to sit in the aeroplane and sing "Up in My Aeroplane," assisted by W. Burns.
The vivacious Gertrude Saunders continues to make them sit up and take notice, her best number being the "Hot Dog Ball," assisted by dancing girls. Speaking of dancing girls, there is one miss in the bunch who have a pair of comely legs which have been responsible for many encores during the past three weeks. In every dance number in which she is a participant she occasions laughter and applause. Miss "I Don't Know Her Name" has the makings of a comedienne. Ida Forsyne, ever smiling and popular in Harlem, registers one of the dancing hits of the show, and Ollie Burgoyne is again demonstrating her ability in the terpsichorean art.
One cannot help from being most favorably impressed with the sincere effort made to please by every member of the Billy King Company. Although this is midsummer, principals and chorus people work hard every minute. "They're Off," has gotten off with a flying start. It is sure to come under the wire a big winner. If you want a tip on a sure thing, go and see "They're Off," which will run for two weeks.

From Montgomery Advertiser
Big Bill Tate, the heavyweight Negro boxer, who has been selected by Jack Dempsey as his sparring partner, is a Montgomery product. Dr. F. C. Caffey, the well known colored physician, who was the medical expert in the training of Jack Johnson, when he defeated Jim Jeffries, was the discoverer of the giant, who is to play an important part in the training of the aspirant for the heavyweight championship. It was on the suggestion of Dr. Caffey that Tate was selected. On May 2, he wrote to Jack Dempsey and told him of this young giant and the first he knew of the selection of Tate, he read in the Advertiser on Saturday. Tate has been nicknamed "The Alabama Whirlwind" and he is handled by Tom O'Rourke, of New York, who is probably the best matchmaker in the world.
How Discovered
Dr. Coffey told the editor of the Advertiser on Saturday of his discovery of the heavyweight. He said that he had just returned from the Johnson-Jeffries fight when he decided to try his hand on Tate. At that time Tate was only 19 years of age and was employed by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad on a run between Montgomery and Graceville, Fla. This was in 1911. Dr. Caffey conditioned and trained Tate until 1912, when he turned him over to O'Rourke in New York and Tate has been there ever since.
'Speaking of Tate, Dr. Caffey told of the training he had under Big Bob Armstrong, the big smoke, who helped to condition Jeffries. Tate was sent to New Dorp, Staten Island, and there he trained with Jess Willard, Al Palter, Montana Jack Sullivan and Fred McKay. He secured information as to Willard's fighting during the training, which will be of great benefit to Jack Dempsey in the coming championship.
Replica of Willard
According to Dr. Caffey, Tate is an exact reproduction of Willard, except that he is faster and has a longer reach as well as being several years younger. He was born and raised in Montgomery and has the distinction of having won two fights from Sam Langford, who was looked upon at one time as a contender for the heavyweight championship of the world. He has met most of the big heavyweights in sparring matches and has always given a good account of himself.
A number of Montgomery persons will recall Tate, having seen him while he was in training here before he went to New York, as well as having seen Dr. Caffey when he was working him out in the doctor's gymnasium on Houston and South Jackson streets.
Tate is six feet, five inches tall, just an inch shorter than Willard and weighs 236 in condition. He is considered a valuable addition to the camp of Dempsey.
