In fact, barring the troubles NEW JERSEY CANDIDATE FOR U. S. ANTI-LYNCHING LAW (Special to THE NEW YORK AM) EAST ORANGE, N. J.—Gov. Runyon, candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor, at a meeting of the New Jersey State Federation of Colored organizations, held Monday night, came out squarely for the extension of Federal jurisdiction for the punishment of Lynch law. He said that the conduct of Negroes during the war entitled them to the protection of the Government in states where lynching is tolerated. The time has come when we must have conditions honestly and fearlessly said, "We must realize the truth that all men are born free and equal before the law and that America cannot live rites among her citizens. The white race and the black race were intimately evidently to work out separate crimes, but in matters of human rights we demand justice for all races. I am in favor of having all appointed to office made with reference to the irrespective of race. The public should know but one standard, and the man must fitted for the job would have it." COLORADO GOVERNOR URGES CONGRESS TO ACT Governor Oliver H. Shoup of Colorado, commenting upon the Address to the Nation signed by ex-President Taft, Charles Evans Hughes, Elihu Root and one hundred and fifty other citizens, which calls upon Congress to investigate mob violence in the United States, wrote to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as follows: "I am in receipt of your favor of July 25, enclosing a list of signers I am address to the Nation in the matter of suppression of mob violence throughout the country. "I am in hearty sympathy with this movement and especially at this time when there are so many outbreaks of local antagonism throughout the country. I deem it essential that the National Congress should take some finite action which will tend here to completely eliminate these breaks. "You have my full authority to use the name as Governor of Colorado as signature to this address to the Nation that you have so kindly foredrew to this office." PETITION TO AMEND Special to The New York Age Washington, D. C.-The National Rights League has sent to Vice- lord Marshall a petition that the state include in the peace treaty an element, providing that "rights of every shall be vouchsafed to United citizens, regardless of race, color, or previous condition." The peti- tion was signed by Allen, W. Whaley, W. Spencer, the Rev. C. M. Tanner, Phil H. Stewart, William M. Trotter and the Rev. Bryan Gumming. A STORY MAGAZINE FOR COLORED PEOPLE Out August 21,1919 THE RAINBOW 5c a Copy on the Stands PUBLISHED AT 2214 SEVENTH AVENUE, NEW YORK CITY we have had at times with certain aboriginal tribes which came under the wrong sort of foreign influence, there has never been anything like a revolution or internal rupture during the 80 odd years that Liberia has existed. Our troubles in the past have been mostly from without. In the great quest for African territory which seized Europe with such force, particularly during the last 40 years, Liberians have lived in daily dread of seeing one or the other of the great Colonising Powers of Europe seize their country and shatter the national aspirations and ideals of her citizens. That we escaped extinction is more a marvel, than an achievement, considering our weakness and exposed position. But our escape has not been complete, for we have lost to Great Britain and France during the last 40 years more than 100 miles of our former sea-board, and vast areas of our rich and densely-populated hinterland. These losses have been painful to Liberians, who realise that, in order to develop a strong Republic in Western Africa, there must be ample room for that development and to afford political opportunities, not only for the two and a half millions who comprise the Republic, but for the millions now under alliances, who in the evolution of things may feel the impulse to return to the fatherland and cast in their lot with us in building an independent Negro Republic in their ancestral home. Liberia's Hopes Dashed. It was hoped that in the regimentation of peoples and readmission of frontiers which took place at the Peace Conference those territories which Liberians feel were wrested from them would have been restored, paraguay so since the countries holding them derived territorial gains in West, South, West and South-Eastern Africa territories formerly under the cruel rule of Germany. Viewed from the Liberian standpoint no act of the Peace Conference could have been more important, if we expect the guarantee of our independence. It was hoped that at the suggestion of America, whose philanthropists planted Liberia, and whose Government has long sustained a sentimental and traditional interest in the Republic's welfare, our British and French Allies, with whom there now exists a stronger and deeper bond and a corresponding concern in our progress, these territories would be restored to us, as an act of grace, if not of right.

About 80 children of nearly every nationality attended the school. The teaching corps, Mrs. B. T. Harvey, Sr., principal; Mrs. Edmonia Brown, music and primary sewing; Mrs. Nathla Stewart, carpentry; Mrs. John Lewis, sewing; Mr. John F. Stephenson, kindergarten; Mrs. Harvey also had charge of Bible lessons and story telling. Alderman Schwaykart and Assemblyman McDonald were present and spoke words of commendation of the exhibits and the exercises.

Y.—Following the verdict rendered by a sheriff's jury against the Rev. E. D. W. Jones in favor of the Rev. James E. Mason, for $1,000 damages in a suit for libel, as reported in the A.C. last week, an execution was issued against the property of the defendant. Dr. Jones claimed that he had no property and refused to pay the judgment. Thereupon an execution against his person was issued and he was arrested and put in jail August 6. He remained in jail until the next day, when a bond was filed putting him on the jail limits of Monroe County. On August 12 he served through his attorneys, motion papers to open his default on Dr. Mason's attorney, C. D. Koehler, who has been the Rochester church's attorney since 1905. This motion will be heard at a special term of Supreme Court at Rochester on August 25. It is said by those who are the position to know, that when this is ended, the Rev. Dr. Jones will be other charges to refute in a court justice. $1,000 NEEDED FOR FRESH AIR CAMP IN PALISADES so more parties can still go to the N.E. Fresh Air Committee Camp in Palmside Park if their transportation is of $1.50 and board bill of $4 can be provided for each individual. The committee has no money to pay for a single bill, nor for its rent and board bills, and thus has been obliged to refuse the applications of two hundred poor people need the outings badly. The camp is deal and all the guests are so enthusiastic that the committee considers it well worth while to have undertaken it for one summer, as an experiment. This could not tell beforehand how it would cost. In making a further appeal for funds this worthy purpose, the committee stress "Almost all our former subscriber have responded to our appeals, and paid the heavy bills for furnishing new camp, and most of July's bills, we shall need $1,000 to come clear in August. The committee is composed of colored and white men and of small means, who publish an annual report, and work for the committee without compensation. We entirely dependent upon voluntary solutions which should be sent to Negro Fresh Air Committee, 131 90th street." The officers are: The Wm. N. Hubbell, Chairman; Miss L. Emerson, Secretary-Freasurer. CAFE WAITERS QUIT BECAUSE OF SEGREGATION WASHINGTON, D. C.-Robert A. Thompson of Westfield, N. J., a dental student of Howard University, resigned as a waiter last Thursday at the Library of Congress Cafe because means of segregation" were being instituted by the proprietress. Up to this time no color line had been drawn and this action was taken after a consultation had been held by the proprietress of the cafe with her employees, at which time she tried to seek a solution to the problem that, "the presence of colored guests was affecting the progress of her business." She informed the employees that if they wanted to make their jobs secure they would have to "co-operate" with her and offer some solution to her problem. Just what could be done she didn't know, but felt sure that her employees could do something toward helping her. The result was that two of the employees, waitresses who no doubt thought that the above cafe was the only place they could earn a dollar, "suggested" a separate or reserved section in the dining room for colored people. The young men protested and declared the acts of the waitresses not only a disgrace upon themselves, but on the entire race, and resigned as waiters the day segregation was started. The matter has been reported to the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and it is hoped that a thorough investigation will be carried on. Both of the young men are commended for their stand. (Special to Tuz Naw Yoak Aaa) Tnov, N. Y.-One of the most important features of the recent thirty-second session of District Grand Lodge No. 2, of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, of the State of New York, was the report of the Committee on Civic Affairs, of which District Grand Attorney Wilford H. Smith was chairman. Among other things it deplored the recent riots in Washington and Chicago and added that these were but the logical results of unpunished lawlessness, especially lynchings and burning of human beings. As none of these are ever punished, other lawless element felt safe in starting trouble on little or no provocation. It called on the President and Congress to take a hand in this matter, to make lynching and mob murders federal crimes punishable by the United States Courts, and asked that exact justice be done as between man and man and race and race. The loyal and splendid service rendered during the war by our members, the many thousands of our sons who he buried in French soil, having given their lives, for America and its flag, and its efforts to make the world safe for democracy; it was hoped that through these loyal America would see that America is made safe for at least its natural born citizens, regardless of race or color. At the opening session on August 5, which was a public one, Brother George B. Kelly of Troy Lodge 5728 introduced District Grand Supervisor John J. Epps of Troy Lodge as master of ceremonies. Brother Epps in a appropriate speech tendered all a most hearty welcome on behalf of Troy Lodge, and introduced the other speakers, as follows: Prayer by Rev. John G. Carlie; Hon. C. F. Burns, Mayor of Troy who delivered the address of welcome on behalf of the city of Troy; Hon. James F. Battie, president of Troy Chamber of Commerce. The response to the Mayor was delivered by District Grand Master W. David Brown, and D. C. Right, M. N. C., Mp. Lillie Prattis, The response to the president of the Cham- (Continued on E. 146 Faces). ACTIVE PREPARATION FOR NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS (Special to The New York A.M.) WASHINGTON, D.C. The official call for the meeting of the National Race Press of America to be held in October 7, has been issued by the president, the Rev. W H Jernan, and the clan from every section of the country are getting ready to attend at the nation's capital on the date mentioned. The call states the race with clearness and force and it makes that large delegations be sent here in the various states to consider the ways and means for the bet- tirement of the civic and economic status of the Negroes of the entire country. Able speakers are to be present and the discussions will be broad and thorough. Hon. F. M. Hercules, secretary of the Society of the Peoples of Africa, has accepted an invitation to be present and address the congress. The headquarters of this society is at London, England. Congressman Matthew Agady of Liberia is also expected to speak. Invitations have been extended to the Hon C. D. King, president of Liberia; Hon Blaise Diagne, president of the Pan-African Congress recently held in Paris, and a member of the House of Deputies of the Republic of France, who has also been in charge of colonial troops who fought so valiantly for liberty and democracy throughout the world war on the western front in France. The Rev A. C. Garner, pastor of Plymouth Congregational Church, this city, has accepted the post of field agent for the Congress, and will travel extensively in the next few weeks to place the purposes of the organization before the people. He will be assisted by the Rev D. L. Reed, the well-known lecturer and author; the Rev A. A. Graham, of Phoebus, Va.; the Rev J. N. C. Corgins, and others. Prof. John R. Hawkins, secretary of the Emergency Defense Fund, under the auspices of the National Race Congress, is actively pushing the work in defense of the innocent colored citizens of the district who were arrested during the recent riot, and whose only offense was that they did what they could to protect themselves from the violence of the mob, which could not be restrained by the lawful authorities. Prof. Hawkins is receiving contributions at his office, 1541 14th street, N.W. Washington, D. C. and any sums meant for the purpose will be welcomed. The forthcoming session of the Race Congress promises to be the best of the service and it is hoped by Dr. Jervengh that much good will be accomplished for all the people by this encounter of counsel with the most thoughtful members of the race in October. RAILROAD HARDSHIPS CREATE RESENTMENT (Special to The New York Age) BURTON, S. C.-Robert S. Simmons of this place has a complaint to make to the Director General of Railroads in two cases, growing out of the lack of "adequate accommodation" afforded colored passengers. He says: "Some months ago my wife and daughter were traveling via the C. & W. R. R. train, which reaches Burton about 9:30 from Beaufort, S. C. The train stopped and they were not able to climb the steps before it started again. Had it not been for the prompt action of a bystander, both would have been thrown to the ground. "The other occurrence which I witnessed was August 5, on Train 49 of the Seaboard Air line, leaving Savannah at 6 a.m. for Charleston. The Negro passengers were forced to go into a coach without lights, and much confusion and inconvenience were caused while groping our way in darkness. The entire train was well lighted with this exception. White men were allowed to congregate in the Negro coach and stand in the way of passengers entering. These white men stood and talked and drank, smoked and did as they liked, while the conductor said nothing." This kind of treatment is what is causing dissatisfaction and resentment on the part of the Negro. NEW HOME PURCHASED FOR ATLANTA BAPTIST INSTITUTE (Special to THE NEW YORK AGE) APLANTA, GA. The many friends of the Atlanta Baptist Preparatory Institute were very appy to learn a few days ago that the school had at last secured a permanent home in the very heart of the city. Formerly this school has gone under the name of the Bryant Preparatory Institute, taking the name of its founder, Mrs. S. C. J. Bryant, wife of the pastor of Wheat Street Baptist Church. In 1909 this institution was founded in an up stairs room over a grocery store at 242 Auburn avenue. The work has had many ups and downs, but it has continued to go forward and to increase in its efficiency although in small quarters. It is interesting to read the record of this school in the United States Bulletin 39, on Negro Education. The very first sentence of that report says in speaking of this school, "An effective little school occupying five rooms so a grocery store on a downtown street." The school has met the most primes of fire twice. It first got caught in the log fire in 1917 when all of that part of Atlanta was swept away, and again much of the property was destroyed in a fire at 132 Auburn avenue 1992 just this past winter. During the past year the Trustees succeeded in getting the school under the Atlanta Baptist Association, Dr. A. D. Williams moderator, and since that date the officers of both the association and the school have been looking for permanent quarters in a fine neighborhood. The selection has been made and the property bought at 411 Auburn avenue at a cost of $10,000. Several houses in good condition are on the lot, and these can be put in excellent condition for the opening of the school October 6. The officers of the Trustee Board are Dr. E. P. Johnson, chairman, and Dr. P. Jas, Bryant, secretary. FIFTEENTH INFANTRY TO GO TO PEEKSKILL The following order has been issued by Lieut. Colonel Fillmore: All officers and enlisted men are ordered to assemble at the armory on their respective nights for drill during the last week in August to get instructions for going to camp at Peekskill, N. X., on September 2. DEATH. FOLLOWED DISMISSAL FROM ARMY. (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE) BALKMONT, Md.—The body of Springs B. Coates, who was dismissed from a captaincy in the United States Army some months ago, was found floating in the harbor Thursday morning of last week. He had been missing since he left his sister's home on the Monday evening previous. He is said to have been melancholy since his dismissal from the Army on charges involving his company's funds. He was 52 years of age and enlisted in the Army in 1899. He had seen service in the Philippines and was in Mexico in 1916. He received his captain's commission at the Officers' Training Camp at Fort Des Moines. Funeral services were held last Friday at Mt. Ashburn Cemetery, where interment took place.

Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, was elected president of the National Negro Business League at its twentieth annual meeting held here August 13, 14 and 15. Acting on the suggestion made by Dr. Moton at last year's session held in Atlantic City, the league adopted a comprehensive program of reconstruction which the officers and members of the organization plan to put into effect at once. The other officers chosen for the ensuing year were: J. C. Napier, honorary president; Charles Banks, Mound Bayou, Miss.; Fred R. Moore, New York; C. H. Brooks, Philadelphia; John M.

Malone, St. Louis; Berry O'Kelly, Method, N. C.; W. J. Hale, Nashville, Tenn., members of the Executive Committee. Emmett J. Scott Outlines Reconstruction Plan. The reconstruction plan adopted by the league was in the main outlined by Emmett J. Scott, which was as follows: 1st. National Clearing House for the Negro Business League and associated and kindred organizations and for the business interests of the race. 2nd. Duty and function to keep the white and Negro press informed and exploit and improve the interests of Negro enterprise. 3rd. Special effort to locate and produce Negro business enterprises and manufactures. Keeping local leagues in touch with the regulation. 4th. Clearing house for Negro labor and employment of all kinds skilled and unskilled. 5th. Compile a catalog of Negro business enterprises, institute a Negro mercantile agency. Offer encouragement and make inquiries and find out who is worthy so as to induce expenditure of capital. Warning at the same time against frauds, swindling speculators and wild-cat schemes. Suggested the adoption of a form of inquiry on the order of a questionnaire which would be very useful in getting results. 6th. Covered the most successful method of building business interests. 7th. Dealt with the method of defraying the expenses of the League under the new systems and methods suggested. Visitors Highly Entertained. Five hundred delegates were in attendance at this year's session, and in many ways the gathering was one of the most representative in the history of the league. St. Louis is known for its marked hospitality, and St. Loussain outdid themselves on this occasion. President Malone of the local committee, and his associates spared no pains in making the visitors feel perfectly at home. HOW THE WHITE RIOTERS WORKED IN WASHINGTON (Special to TNX New York Aaz) WASHINGTON, D. C. - A repentable colored man who was pulled from a car and assaulted during the recent riots here, gave the facts in an affidavitually sworn to, which was secured by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The affidavit reads: "Monday, July 21, 1919. I was returning to Washington after having been out of town since Friday, July 13, 1919. I arrived at the Union Station at 12 p. m. Monday night and on entering the station noticed nothing unusual. I boarded a street car which went to Rockcreek Bridge via New Jersey Avenue and got a transfer to the Brightwood car line. When I reached 7th and Florida avenue, N. W., the place of transfer, I noticed that things were as quiet as is usually the case at that hour of the night. I waited there about five minutes for the Brightwood car and when it came I and The New York Age is the most widely Quoted Negro Publication.

J.—Demanding a square deal for the Negro and deploying the recent race riots in Washington and Chicago, Supreme Chancellor L. H. Green opened preliminary sessions here Monday of the twentieth biennial meeting of the supreme lodge, colored Knights of Pythias. Nearly 5,000 delegates are in attendance. They have been arriving in the city since last Thursday, the advance guard being the officials, the finance committee and the Pythian temple commission. The commission in its session completed arrangements for the improvement on the Pythian Sanitarium at Hot Springs at a cost of $30,000, and the erection of a temple at Chicago at a cost of $250,000. This will be ratified by the supreme lodge, and work will soon be started. "We deplore the recent riots in Chicago and Washington," said Supreme Chancellor Green, "and we hope that nothing of the kind will ever occur again in any part of our country. The Knights of Pythias stand for law and order, and we are willing to do all in our power to maintain it. The Negro is not asking for any special favors or any special legislation." MINISTER MAKESPLEA FOR RACE JOURNAL BALMORE, M.D.—A strong plea that the race subscribe to, pay for and carefully read race journals, in order to get the correct side of racial matters, was made by the Rev. Joseph L. Butler at Grace Presbyterian Church. Sunday morning. His theme was "Some of the Infamous Methods That Lead to Race Clashes." He scored the white press, the police and the courts as fomenters of prejudice against the race. He said further: "No Government can expect to live and prosper that invites in the time of need to its service its prescribed citizens of brain power and brawn, that equal other elements of the population, and then turn them loose to the fury of the mob, unprotected, to be lynched in the most horrible manner, with almost no chance of making a defense, and such action being supported by the press, police and the courts."

I walked into the car, car and, soon noticed that I was the only iots member of my race present except auly lady whom I noticed later but not at this time. "As I started to get a vacant seat, a soldier put his arm across me and said, 'Where are you going, nigger?' I said to him that I was going to get a seat. As I was telling him that I heard some others in the car saying, 'Lynch him,' 'Kill him,' 'Trow him out of the car window,' and at that time I was being grabbed from all sides. I forced my way to the rear door and was hit by something, as I stepped off, which cut my car and bruised my head. As the car moved away the conductor fired three shots at me. It was as I got off the car that I noticed the lady on the car. What became of her I do not know." PRICE FIVE CENTS resources of Liberia are great. For the last half-century the bulk of Liberia's trade was in the hands of Germans. The great house of Woermann, and the smaller establishments of Wiechers and Hilm, J. W. West, Victor and Hilber, and numerous others, had their beginnings in the trade of Liberia. Why America and Britain permitted the capture by the Teutons of the trade of a country bound to them by language, by institutions and by blood, is hardly understandable. But it was discovered during the war that, even in British African Colonies, the "free trade" policy of Britain had allowed Germany the upper hand in trade. With Germany out of the Liberian field, there is great room for the establishment and expansion of American and British trade. The country contains untold wealth in palm products, fibres, rubber, gums, ivory, mahogany and other furniture and hardwoods. Its agricultural possibilities are unequalled in any other part of West Africa, owing to its rainfall and its numerous rivers and creeks. The Liberian coffee, indigenous to the soil, which has a distinctiveness well known in foreign markets, grows everywhere in Liberia, and with comparatively slight cultivation yields handsome returns, and many of our farmers on the St. Paul and elsewhere have amassed considerable wealth from this source. The soil is admirable for the growth of cocoa, ginger, groundnuts, cotton, etc. Experiments in the cultivation of Para rubber have proved satisfactory. The great war checked, almost killed, a general movement among the Natives of the Liberian Cavalia in the growth of cocoa. The imminent was caught on the Gold Coast, whether our Natives went to labor, Gold, diamonds, tin, manganese, copper, and other minerals, as well as precious stones, have been discovered. But, as with all other portions of Africa, before this great natural wealth can be realized and turned to account we must have roads, and railways. Herein lies Liberia's most pressing and present need. Herein has the means which will produce the New Liberia, which I have wont to speak of. Possibilities of Liberian Trade. It is stated on good authority that the United States will enter the Liberian field in a substantial manner soon; that American steamers will run between Liberian and American ports, and that American merchants will contend for their share of the plum. It is also stated that she will take a prominent post in the economic development of the country. This is welcome news to Liberians, for, despite the absence of America from the trade of the country, the Liberians have decided leanings in that direction, which of course is natural, considering their origin. I do not mean to imply, however, that the trade and enterprises of other countries are likely to be discriminated against. America "books that way" that is all. Britain in particular, whose mercenaries have stood by us in the past and have been a main factor in the development of our trade and enterprise, will as in the past, and an open door in Liberia. We recognize the advantages we have received from that source and are grateful. Indeed, our carrying trade has been in much translated for the merchant that of Mexico, Italy, Germany & Co. where she shares much power with our mercenaries, and the markets on which she trades. The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a blank or heavily pixelated document. Therefore, no text can be extracted from this image. The great wealth of Liberia lies in her fertile productive soil. Any effort made to stimulate agriculture, and to apply it to the advantages of science must prove profitable to all concerned. Other groups of British financiers have long had their eyes on Liberia's other economic possibilities. Most of the concessions for railways, mining, and other such big ventures are held by British companies, exclusively or consistently with Liberian companies; and as far as I know there is not the remotest intention to affect these rights, even if this were straightforward possible. If America should enter the Liberian economic field, she will undoubtedly receive a hearty welcome, for we are bound to that country by the strongest ties. But, as far as we can see, her entry will not necessarily produce clash in any quarter. In fact, it is now understood that development of Liberia's varied resources will be undertaken by a strong financial group of British and American financiers. This, I am sure, will be welcome news to everybody in Liberia. HAIR:VIM BUYS $35,000 PROPERTY. Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, president of the Hair-Vim Chemical Company, of Washington, D.

Mrs. Peck—My husband never talks anything around the house.—Boston Transcript. (Speech in the New York Age) PORTLAND, ORE—Writing in the *Ad- vocate* of this city, Dean William Pick- cens of Morgan College, Baltimore, had the following to say about Tacoma, in the state of Washington: The City of Tacoma is one of the fastest-grown western towns. It has many Japanese. They are a great people, and they excite admiration where they do not excite envy. The Japanese woman works right along by the side of her husband. As barbers, while he is cutting a man's hair in one chair she is shaving another man in the next chair. They are in every sort of business. They look prosperous. A Japanese will take a plot of garden ground on which a white man was starving and make money. For a given sum of money you can buy more or better food in a Japanese restaurant than in the eating places of white people. They do not draw the color line. When the whites wanted to bar colored Americans from their places and wanted to get a Japanese to help to make a success by also barring Negroes from his place, the laconic remark of this Oriental, after hearing the case against the Negro was, "He pay." He was doing business with people who pay, and not merely with people who had the misfortune to be born white and bigoted. I repeat, they excite admiration in the man who has no occasion to envy or to fear them. And the Japanese children! Even the big mountain is not to me more wonderful than these brown and yellow, healthy-looking, oblique-eyed kiddies. I love children of any race or color, and I have never seen any outer specimens than these bawling, kicking, mischief-making offspring of the Japanese. They are so normal and so real that mother must occasionally stop shaving a man's face to jerk or spank one of them. There are only fifteen hundred black Americans in this town, and they are just as human as anybody else, and seem to be giving a very good account of themselves in industry, in business and in devilment. They always everywhere to demand and receive their full share of the white man's attention, albeit the Japanese are the chief baukado of the Pacific Coast. Some of the biggest labor unions here are admitting colored men to full membership—in self-defense. The God that made the human race is more than a power; he is in artist, an aesthetic being. He loves variety, And why on earth does anybody object because He did not make the world one color and kind? What a dull, that motivate that would have been-all black, for example, or all white. After all, the God of creation is perhaps wiser than Katarz hill or Governor Bello. Certainly. He has more art and better taste. BANQUET IN BOSTON TO HONOR DR. DUBOIS BOSTON, MASS.

A Bible Verse that isn't Clear is a verse lost All of us understand the easy verses of the Bible, but most everyone has longed for a handy Bible that would explain a difficult verse simply — and right on the same page. With this Self-Explaining Bible, just consult the lower part of the same page when verse purifies and clarifies a difficult verse, spiritually, carefully — not a mere shallow word or two, but an Explanation that can be understood. IN CHICAGO SERIOUS Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, who recently returned to New York from Chicago, where he had been observing the aftermath of the recent race riot, says that the industrial situation there is serious. The intention of the packers to have all colored workers return to work will, however, have a salary effect on the question of the Negro's right to work. Mr. Jones said: "The League is the outstanding private agency influencing the present situation and is a God-send to the community. The headquarters of the League on Wabash avenue and 31st street is headquarters for the Red Cross Relief Work and one of the four relief stations for the homeless and foodless Negro victims of the riot. Lines of men and, women all day for more than a week have been coming to the station to get their regular allotment of meal checks and food. "The industrial situation for the Negroes in Chicago is serious. Many Negroes who could not safely reach their work during the time of the riot returned to their places of employment last week to find their positions filled by white workers who, in many instances, are being retained. The League with its employment force of some five or six workers is attempting to get work for the unemployed either in their old jobs or in new places as speedily as possible. "The most ominous situation is that at the stockyards, where before the riots about 15,000 colored men were employed, of whom 3,000 are union members. The white union members have struck against military and police guards remaining at the yards to protect the colored workers, who in large numbers are returning. Simultaneously the union officials are publicly claiming that the packers are responsible for the riots. "The Urban League has demanded that the unions as proof of the good faith of their claim that there is no race feeling against Negro workers at the yards issue a statement urging all union members to refrain from all hostile acts against Negro workers—union or non-union, and is urging all Negroes to return to their respective places of employment. Any efforts to unionize Negro workers, whom they claim they would 'welcome to their ranks,' can follow the return of tranquility. Prominent union laborers promised us they would use their influence to have such a statement issued. "In consultation with certain influential men representing the packers, we learn that it is their intention to have all colored workers return to work. This will have a salutary effect on the question of the Negro's right to work in Chicago wherever he is wanted by employers and as a test case will be of value in similar disputes in other locations. These representatives of the parking interests in Chicago who shape the policies of the large plants in other cities will give financial help to our efforts to organize branches of the League in Kansas City and Omaha, Nebraska. "The League has issued a public statement touching the whole question of racial unrest which has been sent to members of commerce, mayors, leading newspapers and magazines and leading citizens, white and colored, in all cities of the country having any appreciable Negro population. We are also trying to raise additional funds to spread our efforts of race harmony and good will among men using the frightful experience of the past few weeks in Washing- Washington, Lackawanna graduate and associate of Harvard University, formerly secretary of the Chicago Young Male Christian Association, began his work at Augusta National International Sec- tory, the National Urban League. He will continue the research train- ing work in the social works team with the Board of the National Committee of the League." 1.000 ODD FELLOWS IN MARYLAND ```markdown ``` these Bible stores unlocked and laid open.

Much of the comment has been fair and judicious, with the exception of those bigoted representatives of Southern opinion, who see in every demand of the Negro for justice and fair dealing the bogey of what they call "social equality." It is hard to determine how much sincerity is contained in this plea, or whether it is only a bogus evasion to face the issue squarely. A notable feature of the discussion has been the unequivocal utterances of the Negro clergy who have been quoted on the subject. They have talked straight from the shoulder, without mincing their words or biting their tongues. This was especially marked in the response of Bishop C. S. Smith of the African Methodist Episcopal Church to the New York World, when it solicited a warning against the counsels of Bolshevism and violence. In his reply the Bishop said: "The colored people of this country do not need to be consolled against Bolshevism and violence. My people stand firmly for law and order. We cherish no ill will toward any part of the American citizenry. We ask for no special favors or privileges. In every bloody conflict in which the nation has been engaged, from Bunker Hill to Metz our loyalty has been the recent riots in Washington and the cruel but fruiting of the seeds of laziness that have been sown in various parts of the country during the most thirty years. Urbana and Springfield, Ohio; Coatesville, Pa.; Springfield, Ill.; and East St. Louis have witnessed lynchings and race riots. Unless there is a radical change in existing conditions we may look for race riots in all the other industrial centers of the North. All the forces of the nation should be directed toward making America safe for all classes of its citizens. The utterance was insulted, General Lang mounted the British forces that their backs were against the wall. This is the position of my people today. Our backs have been forced against the wall." In a letter to the Christian Herold of this city, Dr. William H. Brooks, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, expressed himself with equal vigor and courage in criticism of an article that appeared in that journal entitled "My Overseas Experience" by Homer A. Rolleheaver. He said: "I am grieved that any decent paper, not to say religions, would publish such an article throughout in which any group of people were referred to as darkies.' What must we expect from secular press when the so-called religious press is so difficult and brutal? What other cases of people in the world would have been spoken of in such a contemptible manner, especially when we were making the supreme sacrifice of all roots and hardiness is ill-will, and he who sows ill-will cannot escape culpability in the harvest. If Mr Rodeheaver and his kind are the proper exponents of the religious life of the Anglo-Saxon, the black man turns from it with disgust, and the Last and the strongest 'sow' between the two peoples is broken. If peace and safety are to be purchased by cowardice, scophancy and the loss of manhood, then let the war drums beat and the dance of death go on until the world learns the deeper meaning of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man." These two utterances are truly representative of the church militant and indicate the growing sentiment of the Negro people in their strivings toward justice and their abhorrence of the reign of iniquitous prejudice. Such frank and outspoken exposition on race sentiment is bound to be enlightening to all parties. "FAKE" ASSAULTS. So much clamor and bad blood have been aroused by the repeated charge of assaults attempted upon women in the city of Washington, that more than ordinary significance attaches to a news item found tucked away in an inconspicuous position on an inside page of the Washington Times. It was headed "WOMAN NOW DENIES, SHE WAS ATTACKED" and read as follows: The case of an alleged attack on Mrs. Minnie Franklin, 1361 K street southeast, by two Negroes near Fifteenth and If streets northeast, Thursday night, was closed last night, when, according to detectives, the woman said the story was a fabrication. Several headquarters detectives questioned the woman yesterday and then went over the ground where the alleged attack was supposed to have occurred, but could find no evidence of a struggle. This reported case of "assault" had "scare" head lines at the time it was supposed to have occurred and it looked as if the daily papers were trying to provoke another riot. Later, by the admission of the accuser, the police and the press the charge was shown to be groundless. Time and again these charges of assault have been shown to be "faked," and the most credulous should be brought to see the necessity of searching investigation before pronouncing the accused guilty. Hysteria, by newspaper suggestion, may be at the foundation of many a case of reported "assault." A correspondent of the Philadelphia Tribune registered a protest against the "African Dodger" disgrace, as witnessed at a carnival in that city. He recalled the fact that while such exhibitions were common at Coney Island, a few years ago, "THE NEW YORK AGE took up the matter and succeeded in having placed on the staging books of New York State a law making such exhibitions a misdemeanor, with an adequate penalty attached." He added: "Unfortunately, however, Pennsylvania lacks a great deal of being New York, so far as legislation safeguarding the vital interests of the race is concerned." The writer then called upon the Tribune to conduct a light for the passage of a similar law. Although the Pennsylvania legislators have been singularly remix in passing bills for the protection of the Negroes as a race, a strong campaign would probably bring forth results. The movement to erect a fitting memorial to the late Theodore Roosevelt will culminate in the collection of a fund fixed at $5,000,000 during the week of October 20-27. The plans of the Roosevelt Memorial Association include a magnificent monument at Washington and the establishment of a public park at Oyster Bay, in which may be included eventually the Roosevelt home at Sagmore Hill with its contents, thus preserving it for national use like Mount Vernon and the Lincoln Home at Springfield, Ill. Truly a magnificent project worthy of the American whose name and fame will thus be commemorated. But the finest and most lasting memorial to the former President will be the lessons of true Americanism, which he impressed upon the hearts and minds of his countrymen. That the outcome of the Peace Conference at Versailles failed of giving complete satisfaction to all the nations whose representatives signed the document has been apparent on many sides. One of the latest evidences of this sentiment is to be found in an expression made by the Chief Justice of Liberia to THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 1919 AS OTHERS SEE US. The following paragraph for Public Ledger is significant: There is no way of knitting Germany or Mexico of the recent easy to imagine that similar repellent Americans to talking.

Moreover, if the stories we in Russia are true, it is also true against those who are considered the authority of the existing gor Chicago the mobs beat and kill citizens. We can make a pretty fair Russia and India and Germany try; and as for Mexico and all definitely what is being said. Several years ago we gave why Latin-America dislikes them and most of the officials by the fact that in spite of the fact to be the great safeguard of the republics, and in spite of other ship on the part of this country to any display of genuine gratic feeling whenever it is not unsafe. This attitude of Latin-America way in which the Negro is tree Americans realize that they are American sense; and many of it have had the realization for country. Thousands of wealthy visited the United States and had not only this, but the American him into Latin-American country.

But it is easy to imagine that similar reports from abroad would set a lot of complacent Americans to talking of "peoples unfit for self-government." We should have jingoes bellowing from the housetops for the fleet and for armies of invasion. What does America think that other nations ought to think about her after the mobbing of Negroes in the streets of Washington and Chicago? Does she think that the opinion which she has of Bolshevik Russia has any justificatoin for being worse than the opinion which Bolshevik Russia has of her? In truth, America's opinion in the matter should be influenced by the fact that nobody in this country can be quite sure of what is transpiring in Russia, while every American citizen knows what took place in Washington and Chicago. Moreover, if the stories which we hear about mob violence in Russia are true, it is also true that the violence is being directed against those who are considered to be conspiring or acting against the authority of the existing government; but in Washington and Chicago the mobs beat and killed loyal and unoffending American citizens. We can make a pretty fair guess as to what is being said in Russia and India and Germany of the recent outbreaks in this country; and as for Mexico and all the rest of Latin-America, we know definitely what is being said. Several years ago we gave in this column an explanation as to why Latin-America dislikes the United States. Americans generally and most of the officials at Washington seem to be puzzled by the fact that in spite of the Monroe Doctrine which is supposed to be the great safeguard of the independence of the Latin-American republics, and in spite of other demonstrations of patronizing friendship on the part of this country, Latin-America fails to be moved to any display of genuine gratitude, and even shows the opposite feeling whenever it is not unsafe to do so. This attitude of Latin-America is based almost entirely on the way in which the Negro is treated in the United States. Latin-Americans realize that they are not white people in the North American sense; and many of them who may not have realized it have had the realization forced upon them on a visit to this country. Thousands of wealthy and cultured Latin-Americans have visited the United States and have been treated like colored people. And not only this, but the American has carried his prejudices with him into Latin-American countries. The distrust and the dislike which the people of Mexico and the rest of Latin-America have for the United States will be strengthened by the occurrences at Washington and Chicago; and we know quite definitely what they are saying about those outbreaks. ATTENTION GIRLS!-AND BOYS. TOO. A French journalist, M. Orcel, has undertaken to find out why so many American soldiers married French girls. He decided that when between 6,000 and 10,000 soldiers and officers of the American army chose French girls for wives there must be a reason, and he determined to find out what that reason was. He carried on his investigation by a sort of questionnaire; the answers which he gathered from the American boys are epitomized as follows: "More interesting," "less mercenary," "less dictatorial," "more affectionate," "more helpful," "less athletic," and "more tender" than the American. More fully, the answers given by the American boys were as follows: "We have studied both the American and French girls. As a consequence, we are convinced that it is infinitely more interesting to a man to be married to a French girl than to an American one, and especially so if he is not a millionaire." "In the United States a man without a fortune is the man without value. He only exists to make money. The eAmerican woman is placed on a pedestal from which she rules everything the husband included." "In France, on the other hand, we have found that the man is considered as having greater social value, and he retains his independence, marriage addition, and above all, the French girl, is more tender, more affectionate, and above all, and tries harder to help her husband both materially and morally. the effect that it was hoped that in the regrouping of peoples and readjustment of frontiers, the territories wrested from Liberia would have been restored. Needless to say, this was not done, although during the last forty years more than one hundred miles of coast line and vast acres of the interior have been lost to Great Britain and France. The latest variety of a strike or account of race is reported from France, where the French waitresses at the Y. W. C. A. Hostes House in Paris refused to serve the twenty-two German brides of American soldiers on their way to America. It is reported that scarcely was the peace treaty signed before 140 German women were married to American doughbags. News of a race riot reported from Kingston, Jamaica, stated that the affair was suppressed only after West Indian troops and marines with machine guns were called out. No mention of casualties was included in the report. Coming on the heels of similar riots reported from England and Wales, this shows that seeds of racial conflict have been widely sown and that it requires every precaution for the strictest enforcement of law and order to preserve the peace. Turbulence of word or deed tending to incite to disorder should be discouraged by the sober minded citizens of both races. what is said in Russia or India or outbreaks in this country. But it is reports from abroad would set a lot of "peoples unit for self-government," going from the housetops for the fleet and that other nations ought to think of Negroes in the streets of War. I think that the opinion which she hastificatoin for being worse than the has of her? In truth, America's opinion by the fact that nobody in the what is transpiring in Russia, what took place in Washington and which we hear about mob violence, that the violence is being directed to be conspiring or acting against government; but in Washington and loved loyal and unoffending America, or guess as to what is being said to the recent outbreaks in this country the rest of Latin-America, we know in this column an explanation as to the United States. Americans genet at Washington seem to be puzzles Monroe Doctrine which is supposed independence of the Latin-America demonstrations of patronizing friendly, Latin-America fails to be moved, attitude, and even shows the opposition to do so. America is based almost entirely on the related in the United States. Latin are not white people in the North, them who may not have realized upon them on a visit to this and cultured Latin-Americans have been treated like colored people. Mexican has carried his prejudices with ties. which the people of Mexico and for the United States will be strengthening and Chicago; and we know saying about those outbreaks. ISS!—AND BOYS, TOO. Itel, has undertaken to find out why married French girls. He decided that soldiers and officers of the American lives there must be a reason, and he that reason was. He carried on his questionnaire; the answers which he are epitomized as follows: "More less dictatorial," "more affectionate," and "more tender" than the men by the American boys were as American and French girls. As a continent is infinitely more interesting to a girl than to an American one, and vice- without a fortune is the man without they.

W. C. A. Hostess House in Paris refused to serve the twenty-two German brides of American soldiers on their way to America. It is reported that scarcely was the peace treaty signed before 140 German women were married to American doughboys, despite the rigid rules against fraternizing. However, no more German brides will be permitted to stop in Paris. According to a recent survey made by a newspaper bureau, the population of New York City on July 1 was 6,244,616, of which 120,138 were listed as Negroes. As these figures would only about cover the Negro colony in Harlem, there should be several thousand more, inhabitants of mixed blood who were not "listed as Negroes." Census taking on fines of race and color is a mighty uncertain operation in so cosmopolitan a city as New York. admiration for the French woman, who is generally most devoted to her husband. Here we have a charge that has often been made against the American girl; namely, that she is less willing to begin life with a man, to work and struggle with him for success than girls of other nationalities; that she is unwilling to consider marriage if it entails any material sacrifices; that her chief demand is that the man shall have already made a certain financial success. Is this charge true? There is no doubt that there is some ground for the charge. The opinions expressed by several thousand American soldiers cannot be entirely thrown out of consideration, especially since they tend to confirm a statement which has been made many times before. Nevertheless, it is our opinion that insofar as this complaint about the American girl may be true, the American man himself is much to blame. When the average young American fellow begins to look about for a wife, what is it that strikes his fancy? It is the "doll" type of girl. He thinks that what he wants is a "baby doll" wife; something for him to dress up and keep looking pretty all the time. Of course, during this boob period he has no conception of what it costs to keep a real, live "baby doll" dressed up and looking pretty all the time. In his craze to possess a "baby doll" he overlooks a great many sensible, economically and domestically inclined girls, girls who would be willing to struggle and sacrifice with him for the common success of both. In the matter of marriage, up to this stage of civilization, men set the style; and so, as the "baby doll" type is so popular with American young men, and old ones, too, many American girls who would otherwise be sensible strive to be "baby dolls." It must be admitted that the average French girl is different; and she is different for the very reason that, in marriage, Frenchmen set a different style in girls. There is no greater error in the world than the general idea which Americans have of French women. That idea consists in believing that all French women are gay butterflies who spend their time sipping champagne and kicking silk hats off the heads of their gentlemen friends and acquaintances. The only women of this type that can be found in France are those found in the resorts of Paris where "shows" are put on for the special benefit of the gullible tourists. And these shows pay. For instance, there is absolutely nothing that can afford the touring members of an organization with a moral purpose such ecstatic enjoyment as being shocked by the "sins" of Paris. We might add that the chief use of champagne in France is its sale and export to other countries. The French sell their champagne and usually drink what we call claret. The true picture of the average French woman is a very common sense and conservative person. A person who is generally her husband's partner if he is in business. A person to whom the proverbial depth of the French stocking is due. These traits which are characteristic of French girls, and are charged to be lacking in American girls, are very largely due to the tact that Frenchmen approach marriage from a different angle to the one by which Americans approach it. Or it might be better to say that the French approach includes a different angle. The American, as a general thing, wades or plunges into matrimony through seas of mushy sentiment. The Frenchman, no matter how much in love, seldom goes in without having, at least, a few of his mental faculties functioning. From a national point of view, marriage is looked at in America solely from the sentimental side; while in France it is looked at also from the economic side. This economic side is frankly discussed, arranged and settled before marriage. It would, no doubt, be astonishing to learn how many American marriages have been unsatisfactory and unhappy because the girl thought she was marrying a fellow with money, or the fellow thought he was marrying a girl with money. In many cases it would be found that both the fellow and the girl were bluffing. Such a cause for unhappiness would be impossible in an honorable French marriage. If it is true that American girls are inclined to be "baby dolls," to be extravagant, to practice none of the domestic arts, the American man has himself to blame more than anything else. If he sets up "sensible" girls as the highest standard for wives, even the natural "baby dolls" will try to conform to the standard. And we are sure that the American girl can be as sensible and at the same time as sweet as any French girl ever dared to be. But we do not believe the American man is going to change the standard. He may kick and complain, but he is still very apt to keep "baby dolls" as the correct style in girls. At any rate, he will never change the standard so that it will be the same as that of the Frenchman; for these differences in girls and men and marriage he deep down in differences, in national characteristics: The American is sentimental in everything, except business. The Frenchman is intellectual in everything, including marriage. Perhaps the American girl, when her attention is drawn to this comparison between herself and the French girl, will want the standard changed. Or does she prefer to be treated as a "baby doll?" AFRICAN NATIVE PRESS There is a local parable amongst our Sierra Leone friends, which says "Monkey neka heft him black hand," which interpreted means that it is impossible to interpret the African by whatever means attempted. If therefore, it is asked be what right and authority the educated African or the Native Press speak for the aboriginal African, we answer to the inherent right of being Africans "unilinated" or changed by education, indeed, education is the weapon unintentionally given us by the European and because we have discovered how to make use of it effectively, he is seeking a way to parry or defect it blows, hence the attempt to alienate the African his country. The argument at the back of the mind of the European runs something like this: "We made a fundamental mistake in educating the African; now, if we can divorce the educated ones from the uneducated we shall be able to again resume our lost position and displace the educated African." Nearly ever West African Governor has done hiest to forward this policy of "alienation," they have even carried it to the extent of establishing an African Press in England, and most absurd of all, taking themselves West Africans and the real West African Natives! Africa and West Africa in particular, has bulked so large in the eyes of Europe that it is not now beneath the European to adopt African nationality and become African as in the case of South Africa—Lagas Weekly Press.

PLEA FOR EDUCATION OF THE WHITE MAN, WASHINGTON, D. C.-The following open letter has been addressed to the Hon. William H. Taft, by the Bureau of Negro Information of this city. We have read with interest the attest by you, in which you advance the theory that "sympathetic aid" to the Negro will stop race riots. We advance the propo- sition that as you admit the Negro is not the aggressor in these riots, the question is not one of sympathetic aid to the Negro by the white man, but rather the proper education of the white man ag to the rights of his fellow man, whatever the color of his skin, and the observance by the white man of the laws he himself has made for the main- tenance of law and order throughout the whole land. We believe that when one great fact is recognized, that the Negro with other men is entitled to the "inanlainable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness," there will be no more rioting; no more innocent people of both races sacrificed, no more shame for this great Republic ours. We agree with you in a statement that the Negro the Negro from the South was caused by atrocities practiced on him there, and we maintain that the lynching, burnings, tortures, disfranchisement and segregation, and the totally inadequate school facilities for Negro children were the dominant causes for such migration and the high prices for labor in other sections only secondary; for the Negro-loves the Southland. We see as the main causes of race riots said to be caused by this great injustice. Negro beheaded in the Southland. The ganda of race prejudice and race hatred that accompanied the Negro to these new fields of labor and indeed has preceded him by many years. We again agree with you that the unmerited, humiliating treatment of Negro officers and men in France was ill judged, unfortunate and unintelligent, and that these things were justly published by the colored press. The question is "Why should they not have been?" The white press printed everything pertaining to the treatment of white soldiers in the American Expeditionary Forces "Hard-boiled Smith's" administration is in every daily paper. News article after news article was spread broadcast over the land as to the treatment of white soldiers in France. Congressional investigations were called for to substantiate these allegations that the black men betrayed out to the guilty investigators of these crimes against white soldiers. Then why should not gross humiliation and injustice to Negro soldiers in France be published in the Negro press? Why should these things be hidden from the American public? Since the propaganda in France was secret as far as possible, but the mistake was made in thinking the Negro was so unintelligent as not to understand and not to enlighten the world as to the matter. As to the two classes of race leaders to whom you have given the leadership of the Negroes, it is obvious that in any body of people, are found different types of minds, one group is for one course and one for another; witness the different groups in the Democratic and Republican parties and each group has its own leadership. Sp with the Negroes. They have distinctive groups and their leaders. T. Taft, with his group, Mr. Taft, will add another group which we will speak later. We have followed the first group of whom we speak and of whom the late lamented Booker T. Washington was the leader. Race prejudice has increased instead of abating, lynchings occur as of old, the Negro has still to flee for his life and he has still been denied the rights of an American citizen. Coming to the second class of race leadership as described by you, history shows that only through the sacrifice of some few strong souls proclaimed the rights of man, have human liberty been achieved and enduring reforms instituted. Now the question confronts the colored citizen, what shall he do when the mob rises against him? What must he do, Mr. Taft, when those wearing the uniform of the United States and pledged to uphold our national honor and protect our citizens? What shall he do when constituted authority fails to his rescue? Shall he sit surrender and see all the rights dear to the of a man sacrificed to the ruthless. Shall he consent to be beaten in his home destroyed, his wife be dren murdered. What shall he Now we come to the third Negro leadership, leadership of Negro, the product of half a century of depression in freedom, and of spirit of true democracy. 11 million Negroes in this country these things have developed a scioiness, a passion to be that holds aloft the heck true liberty to all we heart to heart of these blacks is school the justice before the law, fresh from a way four world's denomination grant the dermand cumine from her colored citizens?

A-35 St. Louis, Mo. WASHINGTON, D. C.—It may be interesting to know that one of the white women, who claimed that she was assaulted by a colored man and one of the main cases which inspired the race riots and which disgraced the capital of the Nation, has come out in a statement in one of the daily papers to the effect that she had never been attacked by a colored man, but that she was induced by the District Police Department to make the statement that she had been so attacked, and that she regretted very much that she was forced to give out such a statement which has caused trouble and disgrace. Abolition of the Metropolitan Police Department may grow out of the Congressional investigation of the department by a subcommittee of the House District Committee, it became known today. Under the proposed radical departure, the District of Columbia would become virtually a military reservation and all patrol work would be by soldiers from Fort Myer. The proposed new system does not contemplate doing away with the plain clothes members of the force and others employed in the detection of crime. It is tentatively agreed by those backing the move that the superintendent of police, the precinct captains and lieutenants shall also be retained, to be used in directing police work in co-operation with military officers from the fort. All privates and sergeants in uniform would be dropped. This would mean a saving of at least $2,000,000 annually to the District and Federal Governments and would provide for an increase in pay that is proposed for privates from Fort Myer who would be assigned to police duty here. Barracks to house the soldiers have also been considered in this plan. It is also proposed that police duty in the District shall constitute a part of the regular training of the military units that may be stationed at Fort Myer. In a clash of races last Monday night at four-and-a-half and G streets Southwest Africa was triumphant over Mexico and aboriginal America. Attacked by six Negroes, Joe W.

THE STAGE-MUSIC-ATHLETICS "Exploits in Africa" Drawing Large Crowds at Lafayette AFTER the record-breaking audience at the Lafayette Theatre for four consecutive weeks, Billy King and Company opened this week in their third and last production "Exploits in Africa"—to the largest Monday attendance of the entire engagement. That Harlem has gone simply wild over the King Company and the Lafayette is once again very popular with the theatregoers go without saving. "Exploits in Africa," which will be presented at the Lafayette for two weeks, is a hodge-podge of mirth and melody which seems to have ingratiated itself into the good graces of the public as successfully as did "Over the Top" and "They're Off." There are laughs galore, Billy Higgins and Billy King being the principal funmakers. Several of the numbers are rendered with intelligent interpretation and dramatic effect. "Bleeding Moon", from Cole and Johnson's "The Red Moon," sung by Marguerite Scott, assisted by Ernest R. Whitman and chorus; Theresa Brooks in "You Can't Get Lovin' When There Ain't No Lovin'"; "Itsy Bitsy Doll" by Gertrude Saunders, and numbers rendered by quartet are deserving of special mention. The more local theatregoers see of Billy Higgins the more they like him. For four weeks he and Billy King have jointly put over many a laugh. In "Exploits in Africa" he shines forth as a monologist and goes big. Billy Higgins has a style of his own, is also a good singer and dancer, and at no time can he be accused of attempting to do a Bert Williams. The company continues to live up to the standard set in the first show in the matter of costumes and scenery, the African setting being particularly striking. Principals and chorus people display the usual penchant for hard work and romp through scene after scene as if they really enjoyed their work. Judging from the enthusiasm displayed by Monday's audiences "Exploits in Africa" should draw large crowds to the Lafayette for the next two weeks.

Opening day addresses of welcome were made by Mayor Henry W. Kiel on behalf of the City of St. Louis and Prof. Frank L. Williams, principal of Sumner High School on behalf of the citizens of St. Louis. President Malone half of the local league said that it was a pleasure to call to order the twentieth session of the National Negro Business League; that through the league members of the race should be able to get together so as to be of use of each other and give inspiration to others. Mr. Napier's Annual Address. Mr. Napier, who, by vote of the league became honorary president, delivered his annual address the first evening, stating in part: "We simply ask for that which was promised us when we were called to do our part in driving autocracy and militarism from Europe and making the world safe for Democracy. America has contracted many debts during the war and she will pay all of them in whatever coin her creditors demand. But it does not yet appear whether she will pay the colored soldiers and the colored citizens the debt due them for their part in driving out the Hun, as promised, or in the coin which they now demand. This league should go on record as being strongly opposed to mob violence and everlastingly in favor of the mob, or slow feeling with the criminal, whether he be white or black, or whether he be the individual who attempts to outrage womanhood or the member of the mob who unlawfully arrogates to itself the right to administer, punishment and take life. "We constitute one-tenth of the population of this country and yet we have no voice in making the laws, by which we are governed. We are taxed, we are controlled, we are held strictly amenable to every requirement made by the law enacted by the white man and for the white man. His usages and customs according to his idea of justice and right must be observed and respected by us, whether they meet our idea of justice and right or not. "His law.provides that in the courts every man shall have trial by a jury of his peers. He always sits as a juror, too, in the trial of all of our cases, and yet he would under no circumstances admit that we are his peers. There is no wonder that mob violence previews in a land where one custom may, at will, withhold any right or privilege from another. The withholding a small right to-day will only tend to the withholding or withdrawing of a greater one to-morrow." Dr. Moton Optimistic. Shortly after his election as president of the National Negro Business League, Dr. Moton made the following statement to a representative of The Age: "The Business League under its founder, Dr. Booker T. Washington, and his successor, Mr. Napier, demonstrated clearly the Negro's capacity for organization and business leadership. This meeting here in St. Louis showed that what has been done in the past is but a stepping stone to greater achievements in the future. "I highly appreciate the great honor which has come to me as president of the league, and I realize fully the great response that we are doing long after the office. It will be a purpose to interpret and carry out the high principles and ideals for which the league stands, and to use my best endeavors to see that the work continues to advance in such a way as to make Dr. Washington proud if it were possible for him to ree it. "With a new and definite program before us, and with the cordial support of the officers and members of the league, I believe that the organization during the coming year will make forward strides along every line." It was agreed at last week's season that in order to defray the expense of maintaining said permanent National headquarters that a nation-wide effort be made to secure three classes of members of the league: National Life memberships $25; sustaining memberships, $10 a year toward the maintenance of the new program of the league—annual memberships) including each and every member of every local or State league whether he or she attends the annual convention or not) $2 a year. The session will be held next year in Philadelphia. VISITORS TO BOSTON Thomas T. Taylor, of Wilson Park, Baltimore, and his wife, Mrs. Cindonia Taylor, sister of Dr. W. C.

WELCOME DOCTORS AND DENTISTS FROM OVERSEAS (Special to TIME and Your Am) PHILADELPHIA - PA-On Monday evening, dentists and dentists gave a seminar in honor of, our doctors, and dentists who had returned from overseas, at the residence of James A. Howard, the enterer. There were present the heads of all of our professional organizations, and Tally Holmes; the great tennis player. Those present were the seen service overseas were the captains Frank E. Boston, DelHaven Hinkson and Captain Atlanta, Ga.; Dentists Captain William Slowe, Leon F. Dentist, Harry Bowden and Captain DelHaven of Columbus, Ohio. Dr. J. Q. McDonald was master of ceremonies. The men from over the seas related many thrilling and interesting experiences, interspersed with plenty of wit and jollity. In closing every man declared that he 'represented not himself but all of the race who went abroad, and declared that an army working in France for Freedom and Democracy, they all had returned determined to work for the same principles in America. Dr. Slowe praised those who remained behind and kept the army supplied and pledged the courage and fighting ability of the returning soldier to the cause of freedom in America. Dr. Sargeant urged the professional race man to make a larger interest in politics in organizing the masses. Dr. Hinkson, Howdon, De Hankson and Boston told interesting experiences in trench life and on the battlefield. Dr. Carter told of a speech General Pershing made to the race officers of the 92nd Division, in which he said that the whole 92nd Division had acquitted itself on the battle fields of France in a gallant manner, and that he hoped they would go back home and infuse the same spirit in their people at home. What did Pershing mean? The men thought he meant, that they should come back home and stand up and fight for justice and democracy. The felicitous remarks made by Dr. McDougall in introducing each speaker were very much enjoyed. After the speaking everybody sought the spacious back-yard, where in the mellow moon-light a delicious repast was served. INDUSTRIAL DANGER8. There is no better section for the laboring than Birmingham. The laboring field is unlimited, wages are on both with other sections and living conditions excel them. It is a great mineral field, factories, mines, mills, furnaces of various kinds, are continually going. Men are flocking to Birmingham from everywhere. They are going to take the places of the shiftless, men, those who are willing to do only three or four days' work in a week. The writer has in mind a factory that is working only colored men. They needed 25 choice men that they wanted to develop into skilled mechanics. They made a call for them. We sent 25 or more of the factory's young, omitting fellows, fairly diligent; not a third of them needed not half of them began work. The wages are good, the work light and indoors, but the requirements were that they had to work regularly. They did not see the need for so much money at the loss of their usual frolic. This is dangerous. It is growing worse ever day. There is a chance and a big chance for the Negro to lose his position in this section and in this Birmingham field where so much opportunity is offered, where so much leniency is granted, where so much tolerance is had. The change is bound to come somewhere in the future to change his attitude to service and respect for jobs, corporations and institutions are bound to change—he will lose. Strangers will get their jobs. They will breed further shiftlessness on the part of the colored man and he will lose in respect, for the reason that he cannot be depended upon. Organizations of the Negro race, while discussing other important necessities for race advancement would be better in direction and educate our people as to the dangers before them in this their most lucrative field...Birmingham Reporter. ZION'S WORK IN SOUTH AMERICA Bishop J. W. Alstork, of Montgomery, Ala., and Dr. C. A. Alleye of New Rochelle, N. Y., who accompanied him, returned from South America after spending about a month in that country, holding the South American Conference at Walter's A. M. E. Zion Church, Demarara, and touring the work. They report a pleasant trip and uneventful. Special arrangements were made to develop the schools and render their service 'more efficient and to improve the buildings.' Several new candidates were ordained to the ministry and the work, which they found in excellent condition under the able supervision of Presiding Elder W. A. Deane, was better provided for and in some respects reorganized—Star of Zion. EDUCATE THE WHITES. Negroes need the education and they are getting it. White people need it far more and they are not getting it! We, of course, refer to the masses of the South. On the one hand, we seambitious, studious Negroes striving to rise. On the other hand we see a mass of ignorant whites using every effort to force them down to the position they occupied in days of slavery. By all means and for God's sake, educate the white man so that he may learn to treat his black brother justly.—Cincinnati Union. MILLION A MONTH Just to live, the Negroes of Kansas City, Missouri, spend a million dollars a month. Bread and clothes, not shelter, investment, or amusement, costs us that sum. The power it has, for making friendships for us, for lifting us up from weakness to established business standing, is in our hands to use or to neglect. It is the sensible thing to exert this power.—Kansas City Call. SOURCE OF INFORMATION. To the Editor of THE NEW YORK Age: I hand you my check to pay my subscription for the coming year.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, AUGUST 28, 1919 (Appointed to Twin New York Amp) CAMP GRANT, III.—After nearly four months of hard work the General Court Martial appointed by President Wilson to try the fourteen colored soldiers at Camp Grant for an allied criminal assault upon Louise M. Schneider, completed its work resulting in the acquittal of six of the men and eight were convicted. On the 14th day of May, 1916, a number of soldiers alleged to have committed an offense upon this woman were apprehended and arrested just before the 92nd Division sailed for France. Their trial was hurriedly completed resulting in the conviction of fifteen men, eight of whom were sentenced to pay the death penalty by hanging, the others to serve life in the penitentiary. President Wilson reviewed the record of the first trial and ordered a new trial of the three soldiers principally on the ground that they were not given sufficient time in which to prepare their defense. Col. Young was president of the court martial that tried the soldiers, the other twelve members were white officers of the rank of colonels and majors. Just a few days before the case was set for trial, Major A. E. Patterson, judge advocate for the 92nd Division, returned from France and was persuaded by his friends and the convicted boys to undertake their defense. There was no money available for this work but Major Patterson decided to undertake the job of a vindication of the fair name of the race, and of the splendid record the colored soldiers made in France. For the first time in nearly sixteen months, Andrew Fields, James Reel, Col. Jackson Cheeks, Iron Townsend and Clemme Johnson, five of those acquitted were able to walk around the camp without guard and handeuffs, Elia Chang, the Older brother returned from France to be tried was the sixth man released. Major Patterson in discussing the case said he was quite sure that the reviewing authority would release three of the men convicted by the trial court and that it was his opinion that the record was bad and contained enough jurisdictional and prejudicial errors to warrant the release of all the convicted men. Major Patterson refused to say what steps would be taken in the event the reviewing authority refused to release those convicted. It is believed however, that he and another prominent attorney of Chicago, will carry the case to the United States Supreme Court.
