Moore directed to Leave Office by Women-Stopping Super- intendent of Schools at Wilson, N. C. WILSON, N. C.—Prof. C. L. Coon, the County Superintendent of Schools, who gained some notoriety by slapping a woman teacher in the face some months ago, has again exploded. This time he insulted Prof. Charles H. Mopre, State Agent for the Rosenwald Fund, by ordering him to leave his office. C. J. Calloway of Tuskegee Institute, who is the executive secretary of the Rosenwald Committee at Tuskegee, that handles Mr. Rosenwald's money for the building of school houses in the Southern States for colored children, was invited by Prof. N. C. Newbold, of the State Department of Education at Raleigh, to visit the state this week, to make an inselection of some of the buildings erected through the generosity of Mr. Rosenwald. Prof. Moore was asked by Prof. Newbold to accompany him and Calloway, inasmuch as he is the state Rosenwald agent. Mr. Newbold made an appointment for them to see Mr. Coon, and this moving before they met Mr. Newbold, he and Prof. Calloway went to Mr. Coon's office and when they reached there they found Mr. Coon out. They asked two gentlemen who were in the office if Messrs. Coon and Newbold were in and receiving a reply in the negative, and that Mr. Coon was expected at any moment, they cut their values down in a corner and remarked they would return in a few moments. Starting out, Moore spied Mr. Coon, and turning to Calloway, he remarked, "there is Mr. Coon now." Mr. Coon looked at him and said, "I don't care to see you," and added, "Furthermore, I want you to leave my office." Prof. Moore replied, "All right," and departed. Later seeing Mr. Newbold he related the circumstances to him, and when Prof. Newbold asked him to return to Prof. Coon's office he declined so to do. Later Prof. Newbold, Calloway and J. D. Reid went off in a car on their inspection of the colored school buildings of the county. Prof. Coon said in explanation of his course that Moore wanted notoriety which he shouldn't get through the public press. "I reserve the right," he said, "to order any man from my office that I do not wish to entertain. Moore came to Wilson soon after the independent colored school was established, had much to say and caused much to be published detrimental to me." The merry pastime of smashing straw hats, as September reaches its meridian point; caused the death of one man and the injury of several others in the streets of Harlem early Tuesday morning. From being started as a harmless diversion of the fall season, this "calling in" of the summer headgear has degenerated into rough and tumble assault and battery, as many pedestrians object to the summary destruction of their hats without notice. One man, supposed to be Ephram Gethers, of West 136th street, was shot and killed, several white men were injured and a policeman beaten in the trenches that broke out at 135th street and Lenox avenue. It required the reserves from two police stations to clear the street and vicinity. The Negro was killed by Police Corporal A. Hayes of the West 135th Street Station, who was in civilian clothes. Hayes said he was passing the 135th street corner about 12.30 when a crowd who had spent the greater part of the night breaking straw has grabbed his hat and tore it to it hits. He pursued one of the crowd, followed by the others. Hayes overtook the man, who, with others, began to jeer the policeman. They suddenly surrounded him, and he was forced to, draw his revolver. He chased the crowd down the block, and fired two shots. As the man fell, the crowd closed in on Hayes and took his revolver away. They beat him on the head and were shouting "Let's lynch him!" when Patrolman Battle and the reserves appeared. City Children at Caroline Rest, Hartsdale, New York The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a grayscale photograph of a group of people in a room. Due to the low resolution, no specific details can be discerned. On Tuesday evening, Sept. 9 a meeting was held at the home of Dr. Charles H. Roberts, to devise plans for making Lincoln University one of the best equipped in the country. The aim is also to develop a spirit of fellowship and affection among the alumni which will be similar to that which exists among Yale, Harvard and Princeton men. Dr. E. P. Roberts presided and introduced Prof. William P. Johnson who outlined the drive which is now in full blast to raise $500,000. His remarks started a wave of enthusiasm which swept through the meeting. One thousand dollars was pledged by five men while the New York State Alumni pledged ten thousand dollars as its share in the movement. Drs. Holden and Watson, prominent Manhattan white preachers, spoke earnestly concerning the progress of the black man and the nobility of the effort which is to be made. Dr. E. P. Roberts lamented the fact that so little publicity has been given to the achievements of Lincolnites. Then he called upon Dr. Frank W. Hyder, Albert S. Reed, Charles H. Roberts, A. A. Kellogg, and Leroy Fitz Nearon. The latter contributed five hundred dollars after a short talk on the need of disseminating education among the members of the race. The Hon. John Clifford Hawkins, A. M. Robinson, John D. Saunders and Prince SIX SCHOLARSHIPS FOR NEGRO MEDICAL COLLEGE STUDENTS Six scholarships of $1,200 each have been offered by Julius Rosenwald, of Chicago, to especially qualified Negro medical students who desire to take up a post-graduate course. This was announced by the General Education Board, of which Wallace Buttrick is president and Abraham Flexner is secretary. The scholarships will be awarded by a special committee in 1920. The statement follows in part: "The General Education Board has just sent to the deans of all medical schools in the United States where there are Negro students the details of an opportunity for especially qualified Negro students to benefit by six scholarships to pay their expenses during post-graduate work in advanced study in such fundamental medical sciences as pathology, bacteriology, physiology, pharmacology, physiological chemistry, &c. These scholarships are offered by Mr. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, and will provide expenses and support up to $1,200 each, as needed. MOTHERS AND CHILDREN ARE CARED FOR AT CAROLINE REST Thirty-two colored mothers and their broods of little ones, from New York's most congested tenement sections, have just been the guests at Caroline Rest, the home maintained by the New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor at Hartsdale, N. Y. All these mothers, who just have returned to the city after a three weeks' stay at the Rest, were chosen from among the hundreds of poor families under the Association's care because of their run-down physical condition and their immediate need of rest, good whole meal food and medical and nursing attention. had things made more comfortable for her, many a baby has come into the world the better because of the instruction and advice the mother has received at the hands of the Association's visitors and nurses. Caroline Rest is coming to mean almost complete recuperation among the colored mothers who have been there. Nearly every week of the year visitors Taken together with the toddlers and very young babies, of which latter there were in the neighborhood of twenty, the entire party numbered nearly one hundred. The children ran from two and three weeks old up to four and five years of age. All had plenty of rest and recreation; plenty to eat and plenty of sleep; everything was done for them, every effort put forth to make their stay pleasant and at the same time beneficial. Caroline Rest consists of two large buildings located on a very large tract of land in the most picturesque section of Hartsdale, near White Plains. It is run solely for sick, tired-out mothers, so that they may obtain much needed rest and be brought back to health. The Rest is constantly under the supervision of physicians and a competent resident nursing staff. The visitors at Caroline Rest are relieved at once of all household drudgery, care and work of all sort. Their children have a large playground provided for them, where there are swings, slides, chutes, a sand-pile to play in, and many other amusement features. Their playing is constantly under the supervision of a play directress and they are, taught games, told stories and entertained. The very young babies have their little beds on the wide verandas—it amounts to life in the open, in the good fresh air of the country, whether in summer or in winter, for Caroline Rest is open all the year round. Parties up at the Rest have nothing to do but get well. This work at Hartside is just now supplementing the family welfare work the Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor has recently undertaken in the colored residential sections of New York. Particular emphasis is being laid on child health. This applies not alone to the children themselves, but to the care of the expectant mother as well, to the end that the children, the mother thus being advised and assisted during the period prior to the birth of her baby, may receive their right to be well born and have a correspondingly better chance at starting life a good, healthy infant. These families are watched and helped right through the period in which the child is in the infant state, through its growth up to the time it is old enough to enter school and then come under the health and welfare responsibilities of the national foundation. had things made more comfortable for her, many a baby has come into the world the better because of the instruction and advice the mother has received at the hands of the Association's visitors and nurses. Caroline Rest is coming to mean almost complete recuperation among the colored mothers who have been there. Nearly every week of the year visitors at the Rest will find one or two colored mothers with their children up at Hartsdale. The mothers are, taught how best to care for their infants, how to feed them, clothe them, and how best to train them. Every day there are classes for mothers in the feeding and the preparation of foods for their infants, and for the larger children as well. They are taught to prepare the bottle feedings scientifically and properly, and lessons in plain home hygiene also form a prominent part of this instruction. MADE MANAGER FOR (Special to The New York Am) WASHINGTON, D. C.—The model town of Truxton, Virginia, which was constructed by the U. S. Housing Corporation of the Department of Labor for Negro war workers who are employees at the great Hampton Roads naval base, has recently been placed under the management of Fred D. McCracken, a colored real estate man of ability, formerly of St. Paul, Minn. He entered war work in charge of Homes registration in Washington upon the recommendation of and under the supervision of Dr. George E. Haynes, Director of Negro Economics, Mr. McCracken who has had considerable experience in housing problems and who is deeply interested in the industrial advancement of the members of his race will be responsible for the upkeep of the homes and for the welfare of their occupants. This new town, which is one of the 24 housing projects of the U. S. Corporation, is scientifically laid out and consists of 224 substantially constructed buildings. All of the houses have running water and electric lights and are rented for $16 and $18 monthly. Arrangements are now being discussed which will permit their purchase, by the occupants, on a very attractive "Easy payment plan" which will doubtless be readily taken advantage of by the workers who will welcome the opportunity to become home owners.

LAST "Y" WORKERS HOME FROM FRANCE The last three colored men engaged in welfare work under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. among the forces overseas, arrived in this country Saturday night, Sept. 6, on the French Liner Chicago. Their names are as follows: Max Yergan, B. F. Lee, and B. F. Selden. Mr. Selden who has written most interestingly of certain phases of his observations while engaged in work among the soldiers, during his year's service, told of a trip he enjoyed before his return, which gave him the pleasure of seeing the most beautiful cities, watering places and mountains of France. Among other things Mr. Selden said: "My great regret is that more of our boys did not see the beauties of France before they were rushed home; they would have returned with a different impression. In the last four months I have visited many places where our boys have been and you little know how glad I am to hear the abundant good reports which are given and the sincere sorrow expressed concerning their departure. They have indeed made lasting friends with the French—friendship which will count in days to come. "My trip included Ascachom and Biarritz, two fashionable watering places on the Gulf of Gascogne. I stopped a day at Beyonne, where many of our boys have labored for the last year and a half; from there I went to Pau, where Henry IV was born and while in the Pyrenees I visited Lourdes, Couterai which is on the Spanish border, Tarbes where General Foch was born and lives, Tonlouse, the famous walled city of Carcassonne; Mimes, Narbonne, Cette and Avignon, the home of the French popes during their differences with Rome. From Avignon I went North and visited the beautiful cities of Lyon and Grenoble. The lakes of Annecy and Bourget and Geneva. From there I went to Chamounix and climbed the famous Mont Blanc and took a trip over the beautiful Sea of Glass. "En route to Strassbourg I stopped at Bonaconn, the birth place of Victor Hugo and saw there that world famous clock which is only surpassed by the one at Strassbourg. "I am very anxious that you know just why I brought you the picture of the monument Gutenberg. The statue represents the press and shows on one side the American Negro and the Indian with outstretched hands, pleading to the (Continued in Bight Page) DENVER, COLO.—At the annual Conference of Governors just held here race problems were brought before the body by a committee from the Southern Sociological Congress. The Committee consisted of Bishop Bratton, Episcopal bishop of Mississippi and president of the Congress; J. E. McCullough, its secretary, and Dr. J. H. Dillard, chairman of the section on race relations. The Congress, in its recent appeal to the Federal government to control mob violence, took the ground that race problems are of national rather than sectional concern; and it was felt if a policy coul dbe formulated which could be endorsed by the governors of all the states a starting point would be secured from which the whole problem might be worked out along common lines. The committee stated its belief that "no enduring basis of goodwill between white and colored peoples in this country could be developed except on the fundamental principles of justice, cooperation, and race integrity"; and that we owe it to posterity "to preserve the purity of our democratic ideals expressed in the American constitution, as well as the purity of the blood of both races." The three items of the program are: The preventing of mob violence; safeguarding the Negro's rights of citizenship; promoting closer co-operation between the races. BAPTISTS ELECT MORRIS 25TH TIME (Special to The New York Age) NEWARK, N. J.—The National Baptist Convention, which was in session in the city all of last week, closed Monday, selecting Indianapolis, Ind., for the next session. The convention has been attended by fully 5,000 delegates. The following officers were elected: E. C. Morris, Helena, Ark. president; W. G. Parks, Philadelphia, vice-president; R.B. Hudson, Selena, Ala., secretary; T. O. Fuller, Memphis, Teen.; E. Arlington Wilson, Dallas, Texas; E. H. McDonald, Pittsburgh, Pa., assistant secretaries; A. J. Stokes, Montgomery. The specific suggestions under the first head appear very inadequate, as nothing is said of punishing mob leaders; but an honest carrying out of the rest of the program will do away with mobs by changing public opinion. This includes, under the second head, proper traveling accommodations, better housing, and adequate school and recreational facilities. The real strength of the program is in the promotion of co-operation. If the best men and women of the two races can be brought to know one another, the bogey of "social equality" will vanish and mutual trust and respect be established. Local white and colored committees are to be formed to consider matters of common interest—a policy already in successful operation in a number of communities in every Southern state. The employment of colored physicians, nurses, and policemen for public health and law-enforcement among Negroes is recommended; co-operation with all constructive agencies of both races; and the appointment by each governor of a standing commission to study the race situation and to recommend means to prevent friction and to promote good will. This program was adopted in whole, and with hearty recommendation, by all the governors present. DR. MOTON DEFINITION DR.

My position on the recent riots was stated in the communication which I sent to the New York World, August 2. In that communication I said: "The time has come when thoughtful white and colored people alike will not tolerate wholesale mobbing of innocent Negroes because of the alleged crime of one. "The Negro has never instigated a riot by wholesale attacks on white people. The very fact that in riots the innocent have so frequently been obliged to suffer with the guilty has created in the Negro an aggressive and vindictive spirit which manifested itself in the riots. One of the most unfortunate things about such occurrences is that it frequently hurts the morale of the conservative, law-abiding Negroes and puts them of necessity actively on the defensive. "Those who make and execute the laws owe it to themselves and to their country as well as to the Negro, to see that the Negro has protection along with other citizens. It is hard for the average Negro to understand how we can spend millions of dollars and thousands of lives to help protect the lives of weaker peoples in foreign countries, yet fail to protect our own loyal, patriotic colored citizens in this country." WIN'S SUIT AGAINST RED CROSS. PHILADELPHIA, PA—Mrs. Emma J. Caldwell, widow of John C. Caldwell, was awarded $100 and $6 a week for as many of 300 weeks as she remains a widow. Caldwell was employed by the Red Cross as a utility man, and in some way lacerated his finger, which developed into blood poison and resulted in death. This made the society the defendant in a compensation suit which resulted in the favor of the widow.

PRICE FIVE CENTS Economic Motives Strengthen Negro's Claim To Justice In the New York World editorial section, Paul Hanna recently had an interview with Emmett J. Scott under the caption of "The Negro, His Economic Contribution and His Right to Live in Peace." Dr. Scott was quoted in part as follows: TWO "An apology from the colored people would not solve nor simplify this problem, even if if b were authorized to make it. And I am not so authorized. We make no claim to perfection; we confess our share of responsibility. But the Negro masses have made it plain to their leaders that no discussion of the present-day race conflicts in America will have their approval which assumes that the blacks are more to blame than the whites." "If our ideals and professions are not moonshine and hypocrisy, then a peaceable solution will certainly be found." Dr. Scott began. "I confess there is much in the record to discourage optimism. During 1917 and 1918 the colored people of America gave a demonstration of patriotic loyalty, efficiency and courage unexcelled by any other element of our population. Democracy was at stake, yet during those critical years 100 cloaked men and women were lynched in the United States, more than ever before during a like period. That was discouraging. In the great victory parade in Atlanta an old colored man was perhaps the proustest marcher in line. He bore aloft a banner attesting that eleven of his sons were serving in the Army of the United States. It must have been a hard blow for him to learn that he had been topped by another old man of his race from Louisiana, who gave thirteen boys to the fighting forces. But this must have hurt him still more. The Black Man as a Laborer. "I was born in the South. I have labored there. The masses of the Negro people live there. For many years to come this will be true, and that section should take the lead in establishing definitely friendly relations between the races. The time has come when there is more than a sentimental motive for doing so. The new motive is economic, and it applies to every part of the country where workmen are scarce and the worth of the black man as a laborer has been demonstrated. Every American community must soon realize that it cannot permit lawless groups to persecute the Negro if it wishes to enjoy the benefit of his economic contribution. "On the 19th basis of 1,000,000 immigrants a year, the United States is now suffering from a deficit of at least 4,000,000 workers. And there will be a continuing deficit, for while there is no immigration many foreign residents of the country are returning to Europe. The colored man has profited from this, and of course he knows it. He would indeed be the mental inferior of other Americans if he did not. I do not believe he plans to, take an unjust or improper advantage of the circumference, but it certainly does not weaken his claim to ordinary justice, which is all he asks of his fellow men. "There is an interesting economic background to the Was muton riots." Dr Scott continued. "During 1917 and 1918 the Government posted many thousands of additional troops and knew that it was necessary to hire against the coloured population and other groups to help them from the outside. They also aired an investigation result and refused to summon. Private investigators were white workers to the Government and the man who was to the Government remained at $1,200 or $1,400. But the United States based investigators with premises located from the outside found himself carrying $5,000. It was a tragic event that the government ordered the investigation here in the Pacific. Now we have her kind of that. The international institution is the international institution. Yet he has been a great friend to people in the world. He is the friend of his plight and has a great because employees in the District of Columbia lost to Dr. Scott smiled again. "I have some old fellows working around the university grounds here who collect $1.50 a day from us. They received about $1.25 under the pre-war wage standard. I can't abuse them and get a mob to chase them to make them work for less, but I fear that expient is sometimes resorted to elsewhere in the PHOTOGRAPHY 15 years' experience in Portraiture.

It is one kind of human nature to strike at your most exposed competitor, and the colored man is frequently the easiest target. Tactics that Undermine Democracy. Tactics that Undermine Democracy "But such tactics, if permitted to continue, simply undermine our democracy and cannot possibly bring a solution of the problem. Thoughtful teachers, students and employers are coming to see this quite clearly. Side by side with the disgrace of lynching there is growing up in the South a determination among the better elements of both races to stop this evil before it engulfs the whole Nation. So we have here an open letter to white college men of the South signed by members of the faculties of eleven different State universities in the South in which a fine tribute is paid to the Negro, and all are reminded that 'no people is stirred to higher things when habitually referred to in disparaging or contemptuous terms. Ordinary human beings live up to or down to the role assigned them by their neighbors." "Beside that fine letter may be placed the ringing denunciation by Gov. Bickett of North Carolina of the current effort to revive the Ku Klux Klan, in which he asserts; 'Just now all of us need to be considerate, and kind and trustful in our dealings with the Negro; the best and the wisest men in both races are.' On the encouraging side also there is the example of such Southern employers as the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company, which prizes its colored workers, so highly that it is catering on a large scale to the black man's strongest desires by providing fine facilities for the education of his children, and other agencies for his welfare. "No, I am not dependent over the outlook. The situation is serious but not desperate. A healthy sentiment in favor of fair play is growing up on many sides. Wise and courageous leaders of both race are now contending that the first and biggest task of democracy is to keep her own house in order. It is vain to talk ideas, unless we practise justice. And in the final triumph of justice I never lose faith." Dr. Scott stood silent by the window for a moment, then turned, with his face full in the morning light, and summed up his hope and convictions. Problem to be Solved by Facing It "To all your questions there is a cheerful answer. If there is a crisis in the race problem it is because the Nation has ignored, neglected and pushed the problem aside. To solve it we must face it and who shall say we are afraid to face it? "Too often the whole question is complicated and well meaning efforts negatived by many persons North and South who conjure up the spectre of 'social equality' a term which, as often used, is a misnomer. Every self-respecting colored man and woman concludes the right of every other individual to decide whom his associates and companions shall be. Nor is the Negro—and I think I am rather well acquainted with the main hopes and aspirations of my race—delectous of imposing himself on any one of any particular social group in which he is not accustomed. But that is not nothing to do with the virtue radiance and persistence to which every decent man is entitled. Certainly all has no chance in the future of the true Native American man who has returned from France, where in the eyes of native men and women the war was not regarded as pathetic. But simply a good fighting man we have learned to love in the they were sent to do. that do our people dream of using leaders to become the two most sensitive men in the world and intimate and intimate friends. What the Nazi war with all his heart, and that America will proudly concede to the invasion is still very critical. In this situation for leisure, it wants to be on the court; he wants the privilege of serving on justice; the right to vote; the right to hold office like other citizens. He wants better educational facilities, abolition of the 'Jim Crow' car and of discrimination and segregation in the Government service; the same military training and chance for promotion in the army that white men enjoy; destruction of the promage system, an equal wage, better housing, better sanitary conditions and reforms in Southern penal institutions. "That is the Negro problem. Does it impose too much upon the greatest democracy in the world? I cannot believe that it does." HOPE CHURCH OBSERVES FIFTEENTH ANNIVERSARY (Special to The New York Am) CHAMBERSBURG, Pa.—The 15th anniversary of the Hope Presbyterian Church was fittingly celebrated last Sunday. In the morning the pastor, the Rev. Burton, preached a special sermon, "A Triumphant Church." He emphasized stealthiness on the part of the members in the fundamental truths of religion, in fellowship and in prayer and a passion for the Kingdom and Kingdom interests. Not by numbers or by display, but by these things shall a church become a triumphant church. Lord's Supper and roll call of charter members were held in the evening. Mrs. Rebecca Crankleton, Mrs. Anna Christian and Mrs. M. Retta Norris and Miss Rebecca Quivers are the charter members still in our midst. Checks and congratulations came from several of the white founders of the church. Mrs. Fred Baltimore of the Bethel A. M. E. Church, presented a beautiful bouquet of flowers for the occasion, also Miss Grace Starkes of Hope Church. Elder Isaac Harrison and Rev. Wm. Burton left town on Monday to attend the fall meeting of Carkle, Presbytery, held in Millerstown, Pa. A special sermon to the Prince Albert Lodge No. 17, F. and A. M., will be preached by the Rev. Wm. Burton in the Hope Church on Sunday evening at 8 p. m. The Century Club are also invited to participate.

C.-Saturday evening, September 6, during an altercation near Fourth and V streets Northwest Policeman Attinelli attempted to arrest Mrs. Mary Boston. Her husband objected to the rough handling of his wife and entered the fray with such fervor that the policeman was knocked down and deprived of both his club and gun. A riot call was sent in by the fallen officer's companion, and after a general but brief melee the woman was arrested. Her husband, however, had disappeared. This forms the prelude of the real drama. Editor J. Finley Wilson, and who knew, nothing of the events just described, were busily engaged in the office of the Eagle about 5:30 o'clock the same evening. Local white papers, however, with their usual veracity, spoke of Editor Wilson being in the night at Fourth and V streets at that time. A series of piercing screams caused all to rush to windows and doors to investigate the unusual disturbance. They saw the policeman roughly dragging a colored woman by the arms through mud and up the stone steps of Eighth Precinct Station, just across the street from the Eagle office. A large crowd of excited colored citizens had gathered around the station by this time, and Editor Wilson and others rushed over to inquire why such rough tactics were necessary in taking the woman into No. 8. Her head struck the steps several times during the brutal dragging. Shades in the windows facing You street were hastily drawn and the door slammed in the faces of those who attempted to enter and protect. Wild screams and blows floated through the windows, which were screened and protected only by drawn curtains. "My God, don't kill me! Mercy! Help!" were her exclamations. Editor Wilson now moved to the west side of the station to ascertain if possible, through an open window there, this new barbarian. A recent appointee from the army, one Glassman by name now came forth and injured of Editor Wilson and Attorney Chas. S. Hill, who had joined him: "What do you damned niggers want here?" They replied that they desired to speak to the new captain of the precinct. With more oaths he told them that "You damn niggers think you can run this precinct, but we'll show you." Assuring Editor Editor Wilson, with a new assortment of profanity, that if he really wanted to speak to the Captain he would accommodate him, he then roughly placed the editor under arrest. At this juncture a host of friends started a demonstration to liberate him. The prisoner, however, quieted them and entered the station with Glassman. While entering this corner unexpectedly hurled Wilson into the room, and policemen there began to pummel him without further ceremony. When the desk sergeant said, "This is Wilson, editor of one of the colored papers," the uniformed man desisted. At this repeated request to see Captain Harrison he was told that he would not be in until 7 o'clock. The editor was compelled, however, to post a cash collateral of ten dollars or suffer confinement in a cell. He paid. Meanwhile his personal friend and counselor, Chas. S. Hill, appeared at the door and tendered his card. The attorney was also subjected to the newly instituted "rough house" tactics now in force there. Editor Wilson saw Captain Harrison upon his arrival and registered his complaint against the treatment accorded the female prisoner whom he warned him that the tactic would not work. Captain Hill and himself were not wise. He told him further that he would not work with the inmate in the prison. Harrison was dismissed all except his prisoner. He thanked you for your expectation to work with any inmate. He would like to work with you in Southern and western Southern demolition and with him in prison. He promised to promote his results upon Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hill. The Captain faxed a letter that if he were wrong enough they would not be held in Glassimary. The Captain's response was accepted. and warranted a dismissal, a denomination. A case in unfavorable assemblage was instituted by Editor Wilson. The case called Monday, was postponed until Wednesday. Lawyers Chas, S. Hill, Royal Highes, and John H. Wilson appeared in the defendant's behalf. The testimony of the plaintiff and his "witnesses," all policemen, was so inherent, so contradictory, that the case was dismissed. Editor Wilson, backed by several public-signed citizens, has instituted suit for $1,000 damages. DISTRICT CONFERENCE HELD AT KINGSTON KINGSTON, N. Y.-The Albany District Conference of the A. M. E.

The Utopia Art and Embroidery Club met at the home of Dr. and Mrs. H. F. Prock on Monday evening, Sept. 15. Certain expressions from representatives of Texas opinion afford ground for the belief that not all the white men in that State are "plugglies", nor are all the black men cowards, as certain events might lead the hasty reader to suppose. The ground for the first assertion is found in the columns of the Galveston Daily News, a leading white paper which has heretofore taken strong ground against lynching as practised by too many citizens of the State of Texas. While feeling it necessary to deprecate the meddling of a few white people of the North in the problem of race relation in the South, the News thinks that Governor Hobby was betrayed into "misrepresenting himself, as well as the people of Texas," when he declared his belief in "Texas for Texans only." The News also repudiates the Governor's "plugugly" language, in advocating a broken jaw for reformers from the North, claiming that the people of Texas do not believe in lawlessness. Of course this academic assertion has not yet been backed by any visible demonstration, except the pacific protest of the News. On the other hand the courageous attitude of the Negro newspapers is shown by the statement of the San Antonio Inquirer that it cannot agree with the Rev. L. L. Campbell and other would-be race leaders, who contend that there is no need for complaint for the way colored people are treated in the South. This outspoken editor continues: If there is a colored man in the South who believes in true democracy and the advancement of his people, who says he is satisfied with the living conditions in the Southland, he is either a hypocrite or a tool or both. This is no time for hypocritical propaganda being carried on in this section of the country by some of the leaders at the expense of the race. We do not want social equality, race roots or lynchings, but we want better living conditions for the colored people, and a better relation between the two races which will have a great effect toward the abolition of lynching and race riots which are disgracing the fair name of America. While these two utterances do not settle the whole question, they go to show that the two races in Texas are not entirely represented by the Campbells and the Hobbys. We congratulate Texas that there are both white and black men brave enough to voice their protest against wrong and injustice. WAR RISK INSURANCE. WAR RISK INSURANCE. According to the information furnished by the Treasury Department, widespread interest has developed in the conservation of the millions of dollars of insurance carried by Negro soldiers and sailors during the recent war. The Bureau of War Risk Insurance is receiving the support of colored organizations of all kinds, especially those interested in the welfare of colored service men. In volunteering aid, these organizations have offered to, become clearing houses for informa- tion on war risk insurance. They realize that in this way they can render an invaluable service to those men who took part in the war, by pointing out to them the advantages of war risk insurance. The influence of these organizations, with their hundreds of thousands of members, will become a big factor in educating former service men on Uncle Sam's insurance, which soldiers of the United States won a right to by reason of the part they took in the World War: Extremely liberal provisions have been allowed for reinstatement, application for which they may be made under the following conditions: A. The applicant must be in as good health as at the date of discharge, or at the date the insurance lapsed, if lapse occurred after discharge, and must so state in the signed application for reinstatement. B. The application must be accompanied by a remittance to pay the premium for the month of grace during, which protection was provided after discharge, and for the first month on the reinstated insurance. Distinct advantages afforded by the War Risk insurance policy are: The permanent disability clause, free from all restrictions; absence of any overhead expense; substantial payments, with no age restrictions; unrestricted as to travel, residence or occupation; policy non-taxable, liberal cash and loan values and participates in dividends. If the policyholder is unable to keep the full amount of the war risk insurance he carried while in the service, he may reinstate part of it from $1,000 up to $10,000 in multiples of $500. All former soldiers who have allowed their insurance to lapse should avail themselves of the opportunity to reinstate their risks on the terms cited above. ROOSEVELT'S DEMOCRACY The breadth and genuineness of the democracy advocated by the late Theodore Roosevelt are aptly portrayed in the following quotation from a speech delivered by him to a cobored audience at St. Louis some time before his death: I hold that we, of this Nation, are false to our profession, false to the traditions handed down to us by the founders and the preservers of the Republic, if we do not make in very truth a real republic, a democracy in fact as well as in name, a democracy where each man stands on his worth as a man and is judged as such; a democracy in which the people really rule themselves, where their representatives do not rule them, but, honestly and efficiently manage the government for them." The Roosevelt Memorial Association does well to call, attention to this speech in the course of its campaign to raise funds for memorials to the former President. Nothing could more fully illustrate the greatness of the man and his influence for good on the nation. All good Americans should consider it a privilege to contribute toward the fund now being raised by the association to perpetuate the memory of Theodore Roosevelt. No matter how small the sum, if it is a measure of the true sentiment of the individual offering it, it should count in the great need of esteem felt toward the departed statesman. Let all our citizens do their part in aiding the labors of the memorial committees by a prompt and willing offering. ONE CAUSE OF UNREST. The efforts of Southern Congressmen to ascribe the unrest among Negroes in the South to other than the true causes, has drawn out a brief letter from an Atlanta physician, which was printed in the New York Sun. In denying the suggestion that Russian Soviet interests were at work among the colored people of the South, Dr. H. R. Butler said: That there is an unrest among the colored people everywhere no one can doubt, but not to the out of any revolutionary sentiment; but is it not true that Mr. Byrnes, who brings these charges, is representing in Congress a district in South Carolina in which the colored taxpayers have no voice or vote? Here lies one of the main causes of the unrest of all colored Americans in the South, and there will he no real pacification of these people until this wrong is righted by our State and national governments. Taxation without representation was the cause given by the THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1919 VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Woldon Johnson, Contributing Editor THE MEASURE OF DUBLIN, GEORGIA. We call the special attention of our readers to an article from the Dublin (Ga.) Courier-Herald, reproduced elsewhere in this issue. The article is an editorial which appeared in the above-named paper. The editor of the Dublin Courier-Herald makes no pretense at reason or argument; he simply wallows in vile abuse and vituperation. He is mad, mad in the original sense of the word; and he is not only mad, but he is wrong, and when a man is both mad and wrong, he is a pathetic figure. Here he shows himself foaming and frothing at the mouth like a rabid dog; and about what? So far as we can glean from the cesspool of his language he is raving because the N. A. A. C. P. made inquiries into the lynching of Ely Cooper, a colored man, and asked that the law be enforced against the lynchers. In the last paragraph of its article the Courier-Herald expresses its highest-minded sentiments in the following words: If the nigger lovers want to make an official investigation of the affair let them send Shillady or some other representative to this county, and, while we do not believe in lynching or condone the acts of the night riders, we will venture to say that the investigator will reach Hell before his scheduled time. The advancement association would do well to keep out of the South and leave the negro problem to people who know how to deal with it. These words give the measure of the editor of the Dublin Courier-Herald. He himself, although he says "we do not believe in lynching or condone the acts of night riders," is a lyncher at heart. He may be too cowardly to join a mob, even though a mob is made up of cowards, but he does not hesitate to inspire others to mob and to lynch. But this article in the Courier-Herald is not only a measure of the editor of that paper; it is a measure of the community of which Dublin is the center. It is proof that the community of Dublin is made up in the majority of lynchers at heart. Of course, there are white people in and around Dublin who do not approve of lynching. But the lamentable thing is that there are not enough white people in Dublin to DISAPPROVE of lynching to make the slightest impress on the sentiment of the community. If there were, it would not be possible for the editor of the leading newspaper of the town to publish an article filled with such unreasoning hate and containing a threat of murder against seeking to uphold the law in behalf of the Negro. We are literally sick and tired of hearing about this "better element" in the South, this element which does not approve of lynching and injustice towards the Negro. If this element amounts to anything at all, let it speak out and DISAPPROVE of lynching and injustice. If one-third of the white people of Dublin belonged to this "better element" and only did not approve of lynching and injustice against the Negro, but openly DISAPPROVED of them, the leading newspaper of their town could not publish such an article as the one which appeared in the Courier-Herald. But what has the editor of this Dublin paper really accomplished? If he thinks he has damaged the organization which he attacks in so vile a manner, he is mistaken. For if anything is needed to thoroughly convince the colored people of the United States, and especially of the South, that this organization is doing a good work for them and is one which they should join, it is just such articles as the one written by the editor of the Dublin Courier-Herald. EVERY SOLUTION BUT THE RIGHT ONE. The recent race riots have brought forth a fresh crop of solutions for the Negro problem. Many people are using up newspaper space giving suggestions. An Age reader has sent us an article containing the solutions suggested by a correspondent to the Raleigh (N. C.) News and Observer, the newspaper owned and operated by the Honorable Josephus Daniels, the "ruler of the President's navye." This correspondent is very much worried by present conditions; in other words, he is good and scared. He believes, after contemplating what took place at Washington and Chicago, that something must be done at once to solve the whole question. Accordingly, he offers a few suggestions as to how it might be done. However, he goes to the greatest pains to avoid suggesting the simplest and most effective and only solution; treating the Negro like a man and an American citizen. He opens up in the following lugubrious manner: "It looks like the beginning of the end or the parting of the ways, and none but an all-wise God knows the end thereof." Thus far he is right; it is the beginning of the end, the end of denying the Negro his fundamental rights and making him act as though he was contented with that sort of treatment. He is right too in saying that none but an all-wise God knows the end thereof. However, in trusting in an all-wise God for what the end will be, the Negro has a decided advantage over the News and Observer correspondent and all who hold his views. Here are some of his views: The Southern white man is the Negro's best friend; the South depends upon the Negro for labor early American colonists for throwing off the rule of Great Britain. Can it be expected that native Americans, regardless of their color can continue passive under such a condition? No wonder that unrest is found among them. They are too true Americans to be in any other state. SAN DOMINGO'S PLEA Representatives of the Republic of San Domingo recently issued a statement from Washington, explaining the efforts being made to get the government back into the hands of the natives of that country. For nearly three years, it is claimed that the government has been one of military occupation by the United States. According to this statement, Individual liberties have been greatly diminished in Santo Domingo by the action of the American military Government. There is no freedom of the press, no right of assembly, and the people cannot take any initiative to modify the situation. Some administrative reforms of great usefulness have been introduced by the military Government, but the population desires a change in the present situation and wish to see the national Government again in native hands. At the same time, there is a desire to reorganize national institutions in accordance with advanced ideas in order to avoid any internal disturbances and to favor economic development. As the Dominicans were assured that the military occupation was merely to be a "transitory" affair, it is felt that the time has arrived for them to take charge of their own matters again. With this end in view, they have sent a commission to Washington to suggest a plan for the restoration of their national government. As the President and the American people are pledged to the principle of self-government for the smaller nations; there is an excellent opportunity afforded to put this principle in practice in the case of Sam Domingo. and pays him well for his services; but when the Negro accumulates wealth and obtains an education he is transformed from a laborer into a landlord, and is then looking for a white man to do his work; it was a mistake to free the Negro; it was a mistake to enfranchise him; it is a mistake to sell him real estate because it makes him a permanent citizen in a country from which he may have to immigrate (he undoubtedly meant "emigrate"). He further expresses his views by asking the following question, "Will the Negro accept what we term as 'his place' (they all understand what that means), or will he prefer to meet the same fate as the North American Indian?" To both parts of this double question the Negro answers with an emphatic "No!" It is time that the Southern whites understood that the Negro never intends to accept "his place." And as for going the way of the North American Indian, that worries the Negro about, as little as does the final extinction of the light and heat of the sun. This jitney sociologist then propounds his solution, a solution which was discarded absolutely a generation ago. He advocates colonizing the Negro in some other land. It is a waste of time to discuss such a proposal. The best part of this article in the News and Observer is the last paragraph. For while all the rest of it is made up of backward and obsolete ideas, the last paragraph is one of the best examples of unconscious humor that we ever read. Here it is: I feel that I owe the Negro an apology for the seeming harsh measures I have advocated in this letter, but they are all for his good. I know that he has no better friend than I am, for I fondly cherish the memory of an old black mammy and all our slaves for the protection they gave my mother and her children during the war between the states. I now have the same tender feelings and sympathy for their poster, when their conduct merits it. We do not want you to apologize, brother, all we pray is that God will protect us from these Southern "black mammy" friends of ours. JACKSONVILLE DISGRACED they have had a lynching in Jacksonville, accused of complicity in a murder, will be by a mob of men in automobiles and cities of the victims were brought down off the streets.ville is the birthplace of the writer. For it is a most liberal city for colored people older of letters from colored residents ofville is remarkable in that it is taken up on city. We have no doubt that there are residents of Jacksonville who are as their city has been thus disgraced as lynching itself. Indeedeming incident in the matter so far the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerceville is not a lynch law community and lynch law prevailed in Duval County during inhabitant. This resolution deplores the participants are liable to indictments, the process of law as any other murderers, the way in which Jacksonville may re-putation. She can find out who the old name, and see that they are punish At last they have had a lynching in Jacksonville, Florida. Two colored men, accused of complicity in a murder, were taken from the county jail by a mob of men in automobiles and shot to death. Later, the bodies of the victims were brought down into the business district and left in the streets. Jacksonville is the birthplace of the writer. For many years it was known as a most liberal city for colored people. We have received a number of letters from colored residents of the city. One of these letters is remarkable in that it is taken up entirely with the shame of the city. We have no doubt that there are many of the older colored residents of Jacksonville who are as much pained by the fact that their city has been thus disgraced as they are at the fact of the lynching itself. The one redeeming incident in the matter so far is the resolution adopted by the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce, which declares that Jacksonville is not a lynch law community and that in no instance has lynch law prevailed in Duval County during the memory of the oldest inhabitant. This resolution deplores the lynching and says that the participants are liable to indictments, trial and punishment by due process of law as any other murderers. There is one way in which Jacksonville may regain something of her lost reputation. She can find out who the men were who sulted her good name, and see that they are punished. BREAKING HATS IN HARLEM so we had something to say about the man is indulged in on each 15th of September of Harlem. Our remarks at that formal; for only a few weeks before, tears and a half for a straw hat, which is of that season, and perhaps for a cow home at night, his thoughts far renoundings, he suddenly found himself and half-grown men howling, not for a cow hat. and they smashed it; it was a case of the writer could do was to come downignant article on the whole lawless predicted that breaking straw hats was that somebody would eventually get a conviction has come true. This season's ruthless death of one man and the injury of the city and the police will take step A year ago we had something to say about the hat breaking nuisance which is indulged in on each 15th of September by the young hoodlums of Harlem. Our remarks at that time were not entirely impersonal; for only a few weeks before, the writer had paid three dollars and a half for a straw hat, which he expected to wear the rest of that season, and perhaps for a couple of seasons more. Going home at night, his thoughts far removed from his immediate surroundings, he suddenly found himself in the midst of a mob of boys and half-grown men howling, not for his blood, but for his new straw hat. They got it and they smashed it; it was a case of a hundred to one. The best the writer could do was to come down to the office and, write an indignant article on the whole lawless business. In that article he predicted that breaking straw hats was going to cause serious trouble; that somebody would eventually get hurt at it. The prediction has come true. This season's ruffianism has resulted in the death of one man and the injury of several others. Perhaps now the city and the police will take steps to stop this idiotic practice. THE BULLITT TESTIMONY. testimony before the Foreign Relation was caused a sensation on two continents. Late Lansing in a conversation with him: that the League of Nations at present is at Powers have simply gone ahead and themselves. England and France in particular have something that they Mr. Bullitt's testimony before the Foreign Relations Committee of the Senate has caused a sensation on two continents. He quoted Secretary of State Lansing in a conversation with him (Bullitt) in Paris as saying: "I consider that the League of Nations at present is entirely useless. The great Powers have simply gone ahead and arranged the world to suit themselves. England and France in particular have gotten out of the treaty everything that they wanted, and the League of Nations can do nothing to alter any of the unjust clauses of the treaty except by unanimous consent of the members of the League, and the great Powers will never give their consent to changes in the interests of waker peoples. "I believe that if the Senate could only understand what this treaty means and if the American people could really understand it would unquestionably be defeated, but I wonder if they ever will understand what it lets them in for." In answer to an inquiry addressed to his summer home at Watertown, New York, Secretary Lansing issued the very brief statement, "I have no comment to make." In diplomatic circles the statement, "I have no comment to make" is equivalent to saying "I do not deny what has been said." However, since this first statement, Secretary Lansing has issued another in which he says he will not dignify Mr. Bullitt's charge with a reply, but will allow the people to form their own judgment as they may see fit. This course of action seems to be a little risky. In Paris, Colonel House also refuses to make a statement. The whole affair is rather puzzling. It is hard just yet to tell what effect the Bullitt testimony will have; but if it is left entirely uncontradicted it will carry weight with a good many people. It seems that the Administration will follow a policy of ignoring what Mr. Bullitt said. It remains to be seen whether that policy will have the desired effect or not. Such a policy may result in causing the people to think that the Administration dare not contradict what Mr. Bullitt said. In the Air "Soap is going up."

A Foreign Flavor Fussy Diner—Waiter, switch off that electric fan; it's waiting the flavor of the gentleman's sauages into my soap—Boston Transcript. Dublin (Ga.) Courier-Herald. With the imprudence of an organization with no other purpose in the world than to cause unrest among the Negroes of the South, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has deemed it advisable to send to the highest official of the United States a request that a rigid probe be made of the lynching of Ely Cooper, black, by "silent riders of the night" on early Thursday morning in Dodge county. Backed by a statement, which is a black lie in itself, that the lives of "citizens of the United States" are not being protected, the trouble-making association also brings the Shillady case of Texas to the president's attention with a hope that something will be done to the men who sent a white-niger scampering back to the North with his slimy, moss-covered teachings. The Courier-Herald resents the insult cast upon the officials of Georgia by this nigger-lovers' association which had the insolence to say to a white president of the United States that this state with others of the South, was not protecting the lives of its citizens both white and black. Since the day Ogljehorpe set foot on soil afterwards christened Georgia, this good state has had laws and officials fully competent to deal with any situation arising within its borders without the aid of a nigger racial equality society. It is high time that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in its infancy, (and liable to die in this state) should learn that Georgia is the land of white men. The South is a "white man's country," and the time will never come when the interference of a nigger society, breeding discontent with every hour of existence, with the enforcement of its laws, made by white men, and enforced by white men, will be tolerated. The best thing the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People with its white-nigger secretary can do for the betterment of the Negroes of the country is to shut its fithy mouthpiece and organs of racial equality and die in a grave filled with hop slops. When the South thinks it advisable to seek the president on "protecting the live of citizens of the United States" it will do so with the support of white men and if it thinks best, the respectable, peace loving Negroes, who have lived and know the state affairs. The mayor-lovers' association can rest assured that the officials of Georgia will, protect the people without its aid or advice. The national association with the aid of Chicago newspaper, which have even come as state to state that the South was responsible for the recent race riots in the North, are indirectly responsible for the recent trouble in Laureus and Dodge. If the nigger lovers want to make an official investigation of the affair, they send Shilladdy or some other representative to this county, and, while we do not believe in lynching or condone the acts of the night riders, we will venture to say that the investigator will reach Hell before his scheduled time. 'The advancement association would do well to keep out of the South and leave the Negro problem to people who know how to deal with it. TEXAS DISAPPROVES GOVERNOR'S METHODS. Galveston Daily News Governor Hobby probably didn't mean the strict import of his words when he declared at Fort Worth: "I believe in Texas" for Texans only, and just as strongly do I believe that Texans should be the people to say how the affairs of the state should be conducted." He was discussing the recent race disturbances, and doubtless tended only to voice a sense of resentment because of a growing disposition on the part of a very few white people in the North to meddle in the problem of race relation in the South. In that feeling of resentment the people of the state generally will sympathize. But we are sure that no considerable number of them would indorse the whole implication of his words. The progress and present greatness of Texas are attributable in a very large degree to men who have come to it from other states and other sections of the country, as well as to the social, commercial and political intercourse of the people of Texas with those of other states and sections. The people of Texas do not wish to deprive themselves of influences which have worked such beneficial effects, and we are persuaded that neither does Governor Hobby, an inepouse of words probably having betrayed him into misrepresenting himself, as well as the people of Texas. We wish we could find some such charitable explanation of Governor Hobby's further statement that he believes "in sending any narrow-brained, double-chinned reformer who comes here with the end in view of stirring up racial discontent back to the North where he came from, with a broken jaw if necessary." Unfortunately, there is reason for thinking that Governor Hobby harbors exactly the feeling which that statement expresses. But an overwhelming majority of the people of Texas do not. The News is sure, and its reason for expressing this conviction is its desire to save the people of Texas, as much as it can, from incurring the reputation which the publication of that plug-ugly language from the governor of the state is so well designed to fasten upon them. Of course the activities which Governor Hobby so rudely denounces are an importence, and one which is injurious both to the whites and the blacks, but more to the blacks than to the whites. But the method which Governor Hobby sanctions for discouraging those who are given to these impertinent activities is not approved by the majority of the people of Texas. They do not believe in lawlessness, nor does Governor Hobby possess the power of persuasion sufficiently to overcome their repugnance for it. Furthermore, the people of Texas are not so distrustful of their own intelligence as to feel that it is only by reporting to violence that they can accomplish their needs to be done.

There has been considerable rejoicing by the members and friends of Wheat Street Baptist Church in that this congregation pulled off one of the largest cash rallies ever held in the city of Atlanta, the State of Georgia, and so far as is known here in the entire South. Ten thousand two hundred forty dollars were raised by the church. The cash rallies is itself a week's weeks ago this same church set out to raise $5,000 in cash, but when the cash was counted there was $8,005 put on the table. Dr. P. Jas. Bryant, the eminent pastor and orator, has set a new record for effective organization that can—really deliver the goods. The last big effort was held on the fifth Sunday in August, and the ground-breaking for the new church took place the following Wednesday, in the presence of a vast crowd of enthusiastic friends and well wishers. This church was destroyed by the big fire that swept over Atlanta May 21, 1917. Notwithstanding this big setback the congregation kept right on the job and raised not the usual amount, but much more for the various causes it helped with. Before it, among the contributions was $1,125 in cash to the new Y. M. C. A. This was a direct contribution from the church in addition to the pledges of the individual members. The new church is to be one of the most modern and complete in the country, costing $100,600. The big musical event of the season was given at the City Auditorium on September 2, under the direction of Komper Harreld of Morsehouse College, for the benefit of the N. A. A. C. P. in its local work. The chorus of 300 voices was at its best. This was attested by the favorable comments and applause of the 1,200 people who came out. This association is now the second largest in the country, having on its membership roll something like 3,000 members. When Dr. A. D. Williams took charge of the branch over a year ago there were less than one hundred members paid up on the roll. Lieut. Chas. A. Shaw and President John Hope of Morehouse College delivered splendid addresses. W. J. Trent secretary of the Y. M. C. A., was unanimously elected to conduct the publicity campaign in connection with the musicale. He was also one of the soloists. Big Bethel'A. M. E.

In keeping with the occasion the management has decorated the lobby of the house with lilac, while the cashiers and ushers wear in their headdress a spray of lilac.” The odor of lilac per- meates the theatre, while on the stage lilacs are used in the set- tings without stint. Again Miss Mitchell impresses one with ‘her versatility. Last week in “The 13th Chair she was an old-woman with an Irish ac- cent, while this week she portrays the part of a vivacious French lass with a Gallic. accent, and’ she is positively captivating. William (Babe) Townsend handles the part of the: English Jove creditably, while Barrington Cater, Will A. Cooke, Lawrence Chenault, Harry Plater, Mattie Wilkes, James H. Gray, Elizabeth Williams, Charles H. Moore, Henry Pleasant, E. Edward Brown, J. Francis Mores, A. B. DeComathiere and Robert Slater do justice to their parts. | “Lilac Time” carries a war-time story of absorbing interest, and is onc of the prettiest plays that has been at the Lafayette in a long time. . SMARTER SET NEXT WEEK Next week another big musrcal offer- ing will be the attraction at the Lafa- yette Theatre, when S. Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt heading the Smarter Set, will appear in their new season's show entitled, “Children of the Sun.” The production is a sequel of Darkest Americans, which was witnessed by thousands at the Lafayette last season. S. Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt appear cach season with something new and diverting. This is easily explained, for they are playwrights, and their spare time is devoted in writing something for the following season. The_Smarter Set will offer this sea- son af entirely new musical comedy in two acts and ten scenes entitled, ~Chil- dren of the Sun,” with new and original special scenic effects and beautiful co- tuming. While the story of the play tells of Dean Kelly Miller of the How- ard University successful voyage of archaeological research, where he dis- covered valuable records which he claims establishes the antiquity of. the Negro race, These records having been translated ‘are to be read at a Race Congress to be held at the Howard Uni- versity in Washington, D. " The records speak of Ethiopia as the mother of nations, and her offspring us “Children of the Sun"; also of fabu- lous wealth, and how King Solomon procured his wealth from their mines, so that the legend conclydes with the prophesy that whoever locates the orig- inal site of the “Children of the Sun” will discover a mountain of gold. A Japanese student attending How- ard tells of his people being sun wor- shippers; which cause an expedition to immediate proceed to, Japan. <lbe and Gabe Washinaton by reason of their previous expedition, are elected to head this second expedition, and aiter traveling through Japan, Persia. hidia and Egypt in a fruitless scuren, at lust arrive at the site of ancient Ethiopiay and learn the true story of the “Children of the Sun.” the Stnarter Set will he the ‘attrac- tion at the Lafayette Theatre week of September 15, with ‘daily matinee, and midnight shew Thursday, as hay’ been the usual custoin of this attraction, The company will: appear at she Popular: Playhouse for one week only, “THE CONFESSIONS OF A WAR _ BRIDE” SEPT. 29.

Director af ihe Music Schon! Senlement: ireiiea Ford Fite Brooktyn, wi been working Harribarg Fr organizer of women for the ‘War Camp Community service, tefls of some of her experiences in the work, as follows: “This year, for the firet time, the city Jof Harrlaburg asked the colored com- | munity, through pee W- C.C.S., to take rn in their Ki “water carnival on her Dey. by eapeiring one of the four choruses. The task was given to me. In less than three weeks a chorus of one hundred and fifty living in sepa- rate communities—Harrisburg and.Steel- ton—was assembled and: trained to sing three numbers—the rational Negro An- them, ‘Lift Every Voice’; the patriotic song, ‘The Old Fhig,” by James and Rosamoad Johnson, and the folk song, ‘Go Down, Moses,” arranged by H. T. Burleigh. When 1 first attempted to assemble the chorus I announced in the Harrisburg Telegraph: our intention to sing the music of our race. @ “The announcement was published to read we would sing ‘darkey’ songs. Early next morning | had_an interview with the managing editor and askéd-for an explanation. A lengthy discussion followed, but I left with the assurance that he would help my work for the colored community whenever possible, and feeling that 1 had won a friend for our people.» The notice was republished that evening just_as I had given it to them and was followed next evening by an editorial on the Negro in music con- taining facts used im my conversation 1. “The Harrisburg Kipona was staged on floats oN the Susquchanna River about seventy-five feet from — shore. There were many tadleaus of the his- tory of Harrisburg. several hands and four choruses. All choruses were cos sumed and the Tine of floats reached | the length of three city blocks, T have : gone inte this amount of detail so_you | Ret an idea of what the affair wae. This was practically the climax of my work in Harrisburg, since I have been asked to take charge of girls’ work in. two other fields, but declined because T had to return to Brooklyn to be ready for my pupils by the first of October.” ELMIRAN WANTS 4 FIGHT To Tne Sroxrin¢ Eprroa op rae Acs: I would like to challenge Eddie Dor- sey or Arthar Siigall for the colored lightweight championship.

HARLEM'S POLITICAL _ OPPORTUNITY DISCUSSED At St. James Presbyterian Church last Sunday morning Dr. Hyder discussed “Harlem's Political | Opportunity.’ Among other things Dr. Hyder said that the opportunity, now presented to the colored voters of Harlem to secure elective representation in the adminis- tration of the affairs of both city and State is a direct answer to the prayers Of Mlack people for more than fifty years; and not to rise to the level of the opportunity will indicate that we are not sincere in our petitions to God for justice. The pastor said ‘that a fundamental racial principle is involved in the forthcoming election, viz.. do col- ored people really want elective repre- sentation? The pastor said he believed they did, But he warned the large con- Jeregation that all personal envy must ‘be oxercome in order to tealize our long cherished hope of seeing ourselves rep- resented in the affairs of city and State, ‘of which we form an integral part, The ywaker nid that im the candidacy. of Dr. Chas. Rotects the people of Harlem i all races have every reason to. be satisfied ant predicted that Harlem would fise to the level of the situation. AAs is usual there were many strangers prevent, among whom was Dr, Terry of Georgia, who way a callege mate of the pastor, “At the close of the sermon nine persone resnonded to the appeal and joined the churclt. At she evening sery- lee the subject was *Abeaham and Lot.” The pastor said that Abraham typitied all_decent people whe study peace, white Lot represented the class of people who are so, selish that they neither make friends ior money.

About 1,00) persons who were unable to obtain xeafs or standing room in the church, were addressed at an overflow mceting. Commenting on the promis- ing future which awaits the peoples of Africa, President-elect King emphasized the difficulties which his country Teas. encountered and overcome since # Was’ frat established in the first part of the! last century. He, paid tribute to the efforts of the original and later settlers from the United States, who have com tributed much to the ‘development of Liberia, “Liberia, owes pach to the friendship of the United Beates, and le most anxious to obtain the co-operation of both white and colored Americans for the government modeled after your ows republic,” said President-elect King. “Liberia knows that her future to a great extent depends upon the interest manifested by the colored people of the United States. We need emigrants from America to hel the further de-| velopment of our country, znJ'to labor both with their hans, their brains and their hearts in the cause of progress in Liberia, We are cager to obtain the co- operation of intelligent colored citi- zens of the United States, and we know by-experience that this co-operation will continue to be forthcoming, because the colored people of America may always be depended upon to interest themselves ma cause which calls for al-ruism, “The -diffeulties which Liberia: have met with,” President-elect King con- jinued, “were largely due to the fact that the 40,000 first settlers from America were-called upon to establish a govern ment among 2,000,000 natives. But ferough the ceaseless efforts of all Liberians these difficukies have been evercome and Liberia is progressing in remarkable :manmer.” The President-elect of Liberia af- dresse@_a mass meeting at John Wenley.

Here in Nigeria it is the general prac- tice of nearly all white men to keep native women as their mistresses, es- pecially this is the case in the Northern Provinces where they go through a form of martiage according to the Mohame- dan custom. T even know of cases where ote white man marries as many as four women at a time. And this pragtice is not confined to the “lower” lacs of Europeans but more so to the class of mien who hold positions similar to Sir Rabhh Walliams, Gad thot been for the sake of com- min decency, T could mention names of such men which would not only shock the dehicate feelings of Sir Ralph but would end in the social ostracism of some of the most prominent of these men in their own country. I know of cases where the ruling chiefs of goun- tries in the interior of Nigeria have been ordered by Sir Ralph's countrymen who bold sway over the people of these dis- tricts to procure virgin gjrls for them to indulge their carnal appetites on pain of punishment, and the chiefs in order to save theit skins or their positions are compelled t obey these outrageous of- ders. May I paraphrase Sir Ralph Wil- liars’ words and say “what blame to the Natives, peeing the conditions under which our gitls are prostituted, and loathing them, resort to violence?” But the natives do not resort to violence; they abhor these things even more so than the white man abhors his women being intimately associated with black men, for it is a fundamental custom among West African natives that black sould not mate with white.
