Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, concluded a week's speaking tour in this state at Charlotte on Monday afternoon March 11, when he spoke to a large audience of white and colored people, which greeted him in the City Auditorium. During the week Dr. Moton addressed three white choirs, the State University at Chapel Hill, the Trinity College at Durham, and the State Agricultural College for whites at Raleigh. The other communities visited included Holly Springs, Method, Zebulon, Windall, Garner, Fayetteville, Chatham, and Wilmington. And at each place visited both white and colored people were present to hear him. In all of his addresses Dr. Moton stressed the importance of justice, forbearance, frankness and good will between the races as The meeting at Raleigh where he addressed three thousand white and coloured people at the City Auditorium was total of meetings held at all the places stated in Dr. Mouton and his party. A special writer in the Raleigh News and Tribune described the meeting as follows: Simple, straightforward, and earnest in his appeal, the Negro leader spoke for more than an hour after he had been introduced by former Secretary of the Navy Joseph Daniels. He told the Negro that the white people are thinking about them as a race and as individuals. He told the white people in the audience what the Negroes are thinking about them as a race and as individuals and upon that basis, appealed to both the frank co-operation and understanding in their relations. Talks to Conference. According to the address, Dr. Mouton brisk and informally to two score bearing entries of both races as a committee held in the office of Mayor Eldred. He laid before them the problem of relations as he sees it, and appealed to both directly to put their interests together to the end that prejudice and suspicion may be eliminated from the relations of the white and blacks. Present at the conference were former Governor and Mrs. T. W. Bickett, Joseph Daniels and Mrs. Daniels, Dr. William C. Riddick, president of State College, Mrs B. H. Griffin, and other representative white citizens, Berry O'Kelly and others of the Negroes. Other conferences will be the outgrowth of last night's session, if Dr. Moton's suggestion are followed. All participants in the conference are on the stage at the Auditorium during the address. Two-thirds of the audience that waited for the speaker was black. The west circle was filled with white people among them many leaders in State and city official circles. Students of two Negro educational institutions occupied sections of the dress circle. Musical numbers by the Shaw University girls and orchestra, the St. Aug. 15th Infantry A Presented To President LaGuardia Special Committee to Harlem Regiment 15th Infantry Armory Plan Presented To Armory Board President LaGuardia Reports Scheme of Special Committee to Provide Home for Harlem Regiment on 7th Avenue. The long cherished dream of a proper armory for the 15th Infantry, N.Y., is nearing its realization. President La Guardia, of the Board of Aldermen, who is chairman of a special committee of the Armory Board on Site and Plans for 15th Infantry Armory, has recommended to the full Armory Board that the armory be built on the site now owned by the city and covering the entire block bounded by Seventh and Tenox avenues and 147th and 168th streets. Plans for a one story concrete-building office as a repair shop for the Public Service Commission have already been prepared to act upon the proposed and it is the idea of the Armory Board special committee to recommend to the Commissioners of the Shining Fund that the height of the building be increased to provide an adequate arbor that will include all the welfare accessories designed and advocated by Colonel Arthur Little. Reverting to Former Custom. This would be reverting to the old plan of years ago when armies were trained in the field. The new Regiment was trained for many years in an army over Tougheme Bay, but the site of the brigade opened the Upper Union, and when the successor of the Second was built. Talks to Conference. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, constate at Charlotte on Monday afternoon audience of white and colored people, which during the week Dr. Moton addressed three chapel Hill, the Trinity College at Durham, whites at Raleigh. The other communities of Zebulon, Windall, Garner, Fayetteville, each place visited both white and colored of his addresses Dr. Moton stressed the awkness and good will between the races as Justin. Choral club, and the Negro National Anthem by the audience, preceded the address. Mayoc Eldridge Presided. Mayor Eldridge presided. He well- welcomed the audience to the Auditorium and the speaker to the city, and presented Josephus Daniels, who in turn presented Dr. Moton. Mr. Daniels facilitated both races upon the ract that during the lining and history of race during the 1960s and 1970s, there have been almost daily stories in the papers of racial strife, none of them had carried the Baltimore date line. "High tribunal was paid to the Negroes for their loyalty. The former Navy secretary related the instance of German endeavors to stir up the Negroes of the South against the whites at the beginning of the war, to which he had replied, when the situation was presented to him, that it was idle to consider it for the Negroes were as loyal Americans as there were the conspirators as he paid a high personal tribute, reminding the audience that he had been selected by the President and sent to France for special service with the Negro troops. Moton a Master Orator. Dr. Motson is a master orator, keen in his appraisal of an audience, happy in his choice of words to fit the thought in his mind to the thinking of the audience. He is tall, thick set, and as he himself says, a "deep mahogany brunette." His voice is clear, easy to listen to, and without being loud, carries to the far corners of the great cavern of the Auditorium. No better Negro jokes have ever been heard than those which he laid the preamble to his speech. "He stirred deep enthusiasm before he had spoken three sentences when he alluded to the presence of Governor Bickett on the stage, and accentuated it when he included Mrs. Bickett and Mrs. Daniels. Direct approach to his subject was avoided, he seeking rather to work around it through lighter allusions to himself, and his subject generally. His audience was thoroughly humored. Armory Plan to Armory Board Reports Scheme of to Provide Home for it on 7th Avenue. 69th Regiment succeeded to the Tompkins Market armory It is recalled that the 71st Infantry army was originally over a market on the site now occupied by the Herald building at Sixth Avenue, 56th St. by pushing the 15th Infantry armory on the second floor level the city would save $120,000 yearly. Avoiding Extravagant Waste The report further states that it is the opinion of the committee that "the ornate and defensive character of the design of the armories previously erected in the city are extravagant and wanful," and that the level of the first floor of the armory, if the plans are accepted would be only fifteen feet above the ground at Seventh avenue, thus permitting prompt, express and ingress. The location proposed is in the heart of the district where the rank and file of the regiment are recruited, and a site could be selected, the committee declares, which would be more suitable. It will be remembered that Colonel Little's plans will make the 15th Infantry Armory a community center, and this provides for public baths, etc. It is expected that the first floor will also open the public with plenty of space and public baths. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1921 Atlanta, Ga., Evidence of the methods used by Col. Wm. J. Simmong, and his Kingdoms of the Invisible Empire, the Ku Klux Klan, was brought here last week when Governor Hugh M. Dorsey was compelled to issue a public statement characterizing utterances alleged to have been made by one of the Klan's orators as "a fabrication out of the whole cloth." One J. Q. Nolan, Klan lecturer, speaking at Hartwell, Ga., is reported to have told his audience that only the patriotic influence of the Ku Klux Klan had prevented a serious race riot at Atlanta a few months ago when Negroes of that city demanded that two of their race be placed on the board of Education. The Rev. Homer Thompson of Hartwell wrote Governor Dorsey concerning the Nolan speech and it was this information which called for the Governor's denunciation. In making this statement, Governor Dorsey withheld his informant's name. This omission gave opportunity for W. S. Coburn, supreme attorney for the Ku Klux Klan, to include in a defense averted. Rev. Thompson asked the Governor for either confirmation or denial. Gov. Dorsey Is Emphatic. Gov. Dorsey immediately replied that the statements were absolutely untrue and without any basis whatever. Said who has attacked this organization was the reason for which is obvious. His name is Rev. Rauschen out of the whole cloth in so far as the Misrepresentations Exposed. The attempt to arouse ant-German sentiment with nullified by publication of another letter from Rev. Thompson, addressed to the Rev. C. P. Witmer, one of Atlanta's most distinguished ministers and a member of the Atlanta Interracial Committee, which, when made public, disclosed the writer's identity. In this letter, Rev. Thompson emphasized the charges of misrepresentation against the Klan's orator, and declared that fifty men stand ready to testify to the truth of the charges, notwithstanding denials that had been made by Supreme Attorney Cohurn, who acted in the absence of Supreme Wizard Simmons. In his letter to Governor Dorsey, the Rev. Mr. Thompson gave details of the statements charged to Nolan, who is alleged to have said that when a request for places on the Board of Education was refused, the Negro delegation served an ultimatum upon the City Council which virtually meant a race riot within a few hours. Nolan is quoted further as declaring that the Governor appealed in turn to Police Chief Beavers and JUNE 9 DOUGLAS DAY AT ROSCHESTER, N.J. Rochester, N. Y.—June 9th., Douglas Day—is to be a great day in Rochester. Plans are being laid for an extraordinary celebration, with many organizations taking part in a parade and with speeches by distinguished orators of both races. Various other entertainments are being projected, and an effort is being made by the Monroe Republican Council to have the day set apart as a holiday, that all the people may take part in the exercises which will commemorate the twenty-second anniversary of the unveiling of the Douglas Monument. The following resolutions have been adopted by the Council, and ministers of the city have promised cooperation. Among them are the Rev. H. W. Campbell, Rev. A. J. Graham, Rev. J. E. Rose and Rev. A. M. Kearney. The resolutions are as follows: WHEREAS, neither the colored people of the State of New York or of the United States of America have a national day of their own, as to many other great races of people, and since as a race we are intelligent, honest, thrifty and patriotic, an achieve in justice and liberty, we are to resolve that, therefore BE IT RESOLVED, that we, the executive committee of the Monroe County Republican Council, hereby set apart the 9th day of June, 1921, as a holiday, so far as to power lies, for the purpose of commemorating the 22nd anniversary of the unveiling of the Douglas Monument at Rochester, N. Y., the day to be known as Frederick Douglas Confidence Day. RESOLVED FURTHER, that we call upon the colored citizens of Rochester, N. Y., Monroe county, the Empire State and nation to make this a national holiday annually for colored people, because Frederick Douglass was a statesman, and we at this time enjoy the fruits of his labors. As a great national character, he enjoyed the confidence of the people at home and abroad. RESOLVED FURTHER, that we urge all ministers and ever, orator to impress upon the members of the race prejudice in our people, the State and the Nation and to suggest the enjoyment of proper festivities befitting the celebration of this holiday.

Theote Governor Dorsey concerning the Nolan he called forth the Governor's denunciation. Sheriff Lowry, neither of whom could handle the situation. Then the Ku Klux Klan was appealed to, and the riot was averted. Rev. Thompson asked the Governor for either confirmation or denial. Gov: Dorothy Is Emphatic. Gov. Dorsey immediately replied that the statements were absolutely untrue and without any basis whatever. Said he—I do not believe any such occurrence ever took place in so far as the others are concerned. It is a fabrication out of the whole cloth in so far as the statements relate to me." This correspondence was transmitted to Dr. Willem, who wrote the Governor as follows: "This is certainly a brazen piece of falsehood, but just the kind of thing such a secret order is bound to execute. For you information, the only thing the Negroes did about the Board of Education was, first, to ask a certain increase of pay for Negro (Commission on Second Page) GIRLS TO HAVE COLUMN IN THE NEW YORK AGE In response to urgent and insistent requests, to give our girls an opportunity to express themselves through writing, and at same time afford them an avenue of becoming acquainted through correspondence with their girls in all sections of the country. THE N.Y. York. As, has arranged to start a column devoted to the interest of our girls. Plans for its development have been fully consummated, but it will be given a beginning, and the girls themselves will have a chance to express their opinion as to how it shall be conducted. The following letter from one of the girls will serve to show the idea of the column as expressed by the girls themselves, and its continuance and growth will depend entirely upon the girls "BROWNIE," from Newark, N. J., writes as follows: "I am going to ask you a very big favor. Will you please start a column in your paper for the girls of our race? Girls from different cities and states can correspond with each other under a different name thereby creating a lot of fun. Once or twice a year we could give a play or some kind of an entertainment to help defray the expense of the column; we would join the column on a club plan, and this would induce a number of girls who never read the paper; to buy a letter. Ask your answer. Let your answer in the affirmative. I will send you a letter to start the column. "Each girl should give her correct name and address, in addition to her column name, but only the column name is to be used." The column will be started as soon as "BROWNIE" and the other girls send in their letters. Sign a fictitious name for publication, but he sure to send correct name and address, or letters will not be used. Col. Hayward M Locate Gra Sailed for Battlefields Unmarked Graves of His Old Col. Hayward Makes Trip To Locate Graves of Old 15th Sailed for Battlefields of France to Identify Unmarked Graves of Fallen Members of His Old Regiment. Col. Wm. (Bill) Hayward sailed from New York on the Cunard line Aquitania on Tuesday, March 2nd, for Cherbourg. France, from which point he will go to the battlefields of the Aisne and the Argonne Forest. Col. Hayward was the commander of the famous 369th Infantry, A. E. F. (the old 15th New York), and his trip to France is for the purpose of locating an island the given faction of the regiment which remain unidentified. The same and national governments have both failed to supply fire for this purpose, and so Col. Bill is making the trip and paying the cost of the mission out of his private pocket.

HAS MADE BIG EXPANSION Oldest and Largest Negro Business Enterprises in Harlem, on 135th St. 135th street is the oldest colored business street in Harlem. Some of the oldest and largest colored businesses are located on this thorough area. Among these businesses is the largest colored manufacturing establishment in Harlem, located at 30 and 38 West 135th. This company, the Berry & Ross Manufacturing Company, was incorporated under the laws of this state in 1918 with a capitalization of $100,000. It started out to manufacture colored dolls, and is now the largest manufacturers of colored dolls in the country. But as the manufacture of dolls is seasonable, the company also began the manufacture of women's house dresses, children's dresses, boutiques and chic shops. For this work the company has all modern electrical machinery, and employs forty people as operators, finishers and pressers. Recently the demands for the things manufactured by this company has been so heavy that the employees have been working over time. Six salemen are employed to sell the goods manufactured. The progress of the Berry & Row company has been so rapid that a retail store for the sale of its products was recently established at 65 West 153th street, and a southern branch was established at Norfolk, Virginia, over a year ago. The company has made shipments of colored dolls to West Africa, which has resulted in the organizing of the Gold Coast Import & Export Corporation, which was incorporated in 1920. This company proposes to export American food products to West Africa and import in exchange for these products mahogany, alpaca beans, palm oil, etc. Sent Agents in Africa Since its organization this company has sent tour purchasing agents to the west coast of Africa.

In speaking of the Berry & Berry company, Mr. Beulin said men going into white stores and selling products made by Negroes had done ELECTION OF VESTRY AT ST. PHILIPS CHURCH St. Philips Protestant Episcopal church, West 134th street, the Rev Hutchins C. Bishop, rector, held its annual election of wards and vestrymen on Easter Monday, March 8th, between the hours of 12 and 2 p.m. It was one of the most interesting elections held in recent years and one in which a very large vote was cast. Considerable opposition developed against some of the old vestry board members, the ballots being over and the votes counted. It was found that three of them had been displaced. H. T. Mars of Brooklyn, W. H. Norwood, and S. H. Baley of Yonkers were the three new members elected, taking the places formerly held by Clarence W. Robinson, Enoch W. Newton, A. Manson. The old members reelected were Dr. Alfred T. Robinson, Thomas H. Harrison, William P. Pitray, Ernest H. Pulley and Richard C. Clarke. Francis H. Carmand and Theodore A. Morse were reelected as wardens. When the result was announced, Rector Bishop made a short speech, thanking the wards and expressing satisfaction at the results of the election. He has been somewhat worried during the past year, he is reported as saying, over some conditions that existed but now he felt sure that he would be given the support and assistance of his board of vestry men and wardens. vidual honors. But many of the regiment's dead are laying in unmarked graves in the fields of France. Col. Hayward is devoting the next few weeks to discovering, and identifying these lost graves and hopes to bring back to relatives and friends of the fallen men information that will satisfy and console them. Another purpose of his mission is to restore the quaint old stone church at Vieille-Ville, on the River Aigue at the edge of the Argonne. At Vieille-Ville Col Hayward had his headquarters for a long time, his men occupying digouts that the Montcrayan had abandoned. German shells had plastered the beautiful village church, and Col.

Atlanta, Ga.—For more than a month, state, county and federal officials have been puzzled in attempting to solve the mystery attaching to the finding of the bodies of three colored men in Yellow river, near Covington, Newton county, but the matter is cleared up with the arrest of John Williams, a wealthy white planter of Jasper county, under charges of having killed or caused the death of eleven Negroes who had been held in a state of pronage on his farm. The arrest of Williams was brought about through the confession of Clyde Manning, a Negro employed by Williams, who declared that he had been pelled, under threats of death for himself, to assist his employer in getting and of those Negroes who had threatened to inform the authorities of the condition under which they were being held. The first Intimation of murder came with the discovery of two bodies bound together with a trace chain and weighted down with rocks. Later, another body was discovered chained to a sack of rocks. All were young men. United States District Attorney Hooper Alexander, of the Federal District Court, northern district of Georgia, immediately began an investigation as to the cause of the deaths, but with slight success. He issued a statement in which he declared that Newton county citizens were not divulging all they knew as to the identity of the men and the reason for their death. in the Tower. He described how he had killed five of the Negroes and helped drown six others, acting in each instance, he said, under the orders of his employer. For fifteen years he had resided on the Williams farm, he attended, and he were charged that a number of Negroes were being held in prison there. Killed, and Buried Power. "I knocked four Negroes in the head with an axe in this week and hurried them in a pasture back of Mr. William Hunt," declared Manning. "Why did I do it? Because the bid he wanted to get ruled of the condition under which they were being held." Indictments Follow Confession. "It is no doubt true that the coroner's jury in Newton county has not sufficient evidence as to who committed the murder." Mr. Alexander stated. "But I am morally sure, and I have no doubt that half the people of Newton county county are equally sures as to where the victims came from and why they were slam. It is not the first time by any means that the same things have happened, and for the same reasons and the situation is a challenge to the conscience and civilization of the state." Manning's confession was made to the Newton county grand jury on Thursday, March 24th, and both Manning and Williams were immediately indicted for murder and resisted to this city and placed in the Fohon Tower for an indictment. INVESTIGATING FALSE REPORTS. Covington, Ga., March 29.—Deeper investigation by the Grand Jury of Newton County, sitting here, into the source of the race riot panic of last Sunday night, when it was reported that 1440 Negroes were advancing on Covington to wipe out the town, and hundreds of frightened white women and children come locking into the Court House Square, was the outstanding development here to-day. A story which the Newton County Grand Jury here is investigating relates that a white boy of nineteen, whose name is withheld, was given 250 by a person not yet identified to go to Montello and sweat an assault that he had been at Waters Bridge on Sunday night after the bodies of two Negroes had been dug up there from the Alcevy River and had seen a number of automobiles filled with armed Negroes on the bridge with the bodies of two dead Negroes, and that these Negroes had pointed pistols at him and shouted they are going to wipe out the white This story became the source of a near panic. It has the belief of Newton County officials that the boy saw no such crowd of Negroes and was paid money to tell the story by a man desirous of stirring anger and panic and thus swinging to the side of Williams public sentiment, which is now strongly against him. The general feeling there is against Williams. If he is guilty of the alleged hendish slaughter he has violated also the noblesse oblige which the best element of Georgia's white population observes in dealing with childlike and helpless Negroes.

"I knocked four Negroes in the head with an axe in the week and hurried them in a pasture back of Mr. William Hone," declared Manning. "Why did I do it? Because the bible said he wanted to get rid of the Negroes and that if I didn't get rid of the Negroes and that if I didn't make me disappear he died me. And I know I must have said." Mr. William Hone made me get Charles Cushelm, a Negro, trusty, and Mr. Williams, and I took him to the river on night and pitched him down the bridge after weighed him down. Charles begged hard, but Mr. Williams and I let's throw him over and have it come with. Following upon Manning's confession and the indictment and arrest of Mr. Williams and Manning, agents of the Department of Justice took Manning from the Fulton Tower on March 6th and made a search for the five bodies which he declared had been burned on the Fulton Hume and Campbell plantations. They were found in a pasture near the house during the morning and evening hours. Madam C.J. Walker Preparations If you want Beauty of Complexion and loveliness of Hair, try Mine C.J.

Reports current are that there may be as many as its forty bodies in the Alcoy River at a point where water backs up, forming a pond and putting feet in depth. These reports are consistent with jury photographs in special session Thursday at Friary, to investigate the reports. Solutter Campbell, of Newton County today requested Governor Dorsey to appoint Attorney General Denny to take charge of the investigation in Newton and Jasper counties, where the murders are offered to have taken place. Victims Are Reburied. The bodies of the four men buried on the Williams plantation and the two buried on the Campbell place were placed in separate coffins provided by Jagger counties. They were later returned in the pauper cemetery near here. All the bodies had on shoes that were soled with automobile coats, the same as in the case of the three Nettles found in the cemetery. For the bodies, the automobile caskets appear in the cemetery of county officials, to have been a sort of mark of identification used by Williams to keep 134 of his employees. Williams' : Wife Was Afraid. From reliable sources it is learned that Mrs. Williams lived in mortal tear that some harm would come to her husband because of his alleged treatment of Negroes. On March 1, 1920, Department of Justice agents A. W. Winner and J. W. Winner sent to Jasper to investigate all postage practices on the Williams plantation. They called on Williams, among others, but it is said that Williams gave a satisfactory explanation of his operations. At that time Williams is said to have had twelve Negroes working for him. The special agents went to the farm on Hulman Williams, a son of John Williams, and to fang Negroes at work and later Williams, a son, is said to have been guarding the men with a gun. The Williams are said to have resented the visit of the government agents and after the agents left the premises the Williams are said to have become apprehensive of the results. The three sons of Williams were at that time said to have been sent away from the plantation. These sons are Hollis, Leo W. Winn. They were gone for the week. It was after they left, it is alleged, that the bodies were disposed of. Williams worked 150 plows, planted 4000 acres of land, was one of the most prominent men in the county and had published a suit. Williams Charges "Frameup." His investigations in this case led United States Attorney Alexander into discoveries of alleged pledge condition in Lower county, which adjoins Newton county near where the bodies were found that he was unable to act as a witness in the trial of the Federal District Court of Georgia. However, he has served indictments against Sheriff Demore of Jasper county and also inmates, W. K. Denison, who were held with him coming into the northern district and kelpings and remanding to a virtual state to play a Negro in the trial of the employ of W. K. Denison. The trial of these two men ended April 4th. The indictment into jury will also meet on April 4th and the government is coming to lay cases before that body as a result of discoveries made by Department of Justice in certain Georgia counties. John Williams, the white farmer, denies the charges brought out by Man THE NEW YORK AUSTRALIA SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1981 ning's confession, although he acknowledges that he had secured some Negro from jail, but he declared that he paid them salaries, and that there was nothing illegal in such transactions. He charges that the charges are a "frump-up," and a result of troubles he has had with the Leverett family, owning the farm adjacency to this concerning controversies over land lines and stock.

DENUNCIES NU KLUX KLAN GRATOR (Continued From First Page) school teachers, and, second, to withdraw this at the suggestion of the interracial committee in favor of mild cr-claims. Dr. Wilmer also wrote to the Rev. Mr. Thompson at Hartwell, supplementing Governor Dorsey's letter, and in reply received the ringing letter from the Hartwell minister. "Your favor of the twelfth, adding your testimony to the denial of Governor Dorsey that the Negroes of Atterbury recently demanded that two of their members be sent to the Board of Education, and that as a result only the patriotic (2) interference of the Ku Klux Klan prevented a bloody race riot, in in hand. I thank you for the additional retutation of what I consider the base slander of all parties concerned. Klan Voted to Burn Schoolhouse. "The lecturer in question, was one 'Colonel' Nolan of Atlanta: His initials I think are J. Q., though I am not sure, you do not learn his name at that end, the line, I shall be glad to learn definitely inform you. "His lecture, I believe the effort to arouse prejudice against the Negro and create a demand for the reorganization of the Klan is not calculated to better interracial relations in Georgia. In fact, the misrepresentation of the Atlanta incident ought to be silenced, by somebody and no one can do, so better than you. I have the testimony of a Methodist I have the testimony of a North Georgia Conference who said that a Klan of which he was a member voted over his protest to blow up or burn a Negro schoolhouse. It is at his request that I am apprehensive of the future of the Klan and suspicious of its clandestine work. You are at liberty to use; either of my letters in any way that you see fit. Fifth, Governor Dorsay is a direct summary of Colonel Nolan's remarks in the Hart County courthouse." Both Imperial Wizard Simmons and Supreme Attorney Coburn issued statements in reply to Governor Dorsey, Dr. Wilmer and Thomas Johnson, secretary of the white House. M. C. A. who also denounced the attacks, has been SIMMON said that "the beater" of the Klan, has been grossly misquoted. . . . that even if he had made the statements credited to him, it would amount to nothing, because he is only a minor employee of the organization. . . . but also that the attacks are solely and infinitely into the foreign element and those who are opposed to white supremacy. Attack Interracial Movement Coburn went into more detail in his statement. He did not dare make any direct attack upon Gov. Dorsay, but trained his guns upon Dr. Wilmer and M. C. A. Secretary Johnson, as follows: "We are not surprised to have the Rev. C. B. Wilmer attack the chairman of the Atlanta branch of an inter-racial movement because he is the chairman of the Atlanta branch of an inter-racial movement which only recently held a meeting in the Atlanta Chamber or Commerce attended by white men. Negro men, and white women, at which meeting matters were discussed which never allied to be discussed by a mixed and white audience, and discussed of white and colored persons. We are bitterly opposed to the holding of such meetings and to the dissemination of literature which has for its purport nothing more nor less than a final breaking down of white supremacy. We are not accused, nor are we seriously concerned with the inter-racial affiliated with and associated with the inter-racial movement are opposed to the Knights of the Ku-Klux Klan and are doing all they can to discredit the organization "As for the connection of Thomas Johnson of the Y. M. C. A., and his effort to discredit the organization, we are not surprised, because I am informant, and I am not surprised, because I are being used to foster and spread the ter-racial propaganda which this committee on inter-racial relations is attempting to spread through the South.

C.—A race riot was narrowly averted here on Saturday evening. March 19th because of a gross insult by two white clerks in a store to two young colored school teachers. The young ladies resigned the insult and when the white perverses threatened to attack them, the police happened to enter the store just at that time, came to their defense. This manly action naturally incensed the white braves and they quickly called a number of their liks to assist in punishing the "impudent" Negro. The colored man, Mr. Bowyer, who is in business here, proved to be very much of a man. Singlehanded, he defended himself against the impromptu mob, and booring four of them, a ride his escape from injuring him, a coat considerably cut up in the back. The young ladies, Miss Burns and Miss Izell, had, in the meantime gotten safely out of the store. Further trouble was prevented by prompt action among the cooler headed citizens, which kept the races to their own territory. As a result of this incident, however, Gay Bros. proprietors of the store, one of the largest in this community, are as to lose the major portion of their property.

ELIZABETH, N. J. Elizabeth, N. J.—Conditions of the colored orphan children in the State of New Jersey, around the ambition of the colored women to come together and organize a Child's Welfare Committee to investigate the conditions. The committee was organized March. 2, 1917 at the residence of Mrs. Richard Holmes, 361 Pennsylvania avenue, Elizabeth. They found 500 motherless children, and realizing that the financial conditions of the colored people would prevent them from meeting the situation properly, this committee took the matter up with the authorities of our state. In 1918 Assemblyman Charles Morgan introduced a bill for a State Home for Colored Orphan Children. During the 1918 session the bill passed the Assembly. In 1919, 1920 and 1921 Assemblyman Warner introduced the same bill and we are anxiously waiting for its use in the session, as conditions are getting worse. After working as a committee for three years we saw the need for a larger organization to carry on the work. In February, 1920 at the Shiloh Baptist Church we were reorganized as "The Harriet Tubman Child's Welfare Organization." We are also doing some community work. In the winter of 1920 there were a number of sweaters, stockings and caps given out to mothers and young children. During the summer small children were cared for during the illness of their mother. Special meetings have been held to explain the need of pure unadultered women and boys to train children. During post winter we have spent evening sewing. We made four garments. A number of these have been distributed. The organization is named by the membership fee. But our demand is greater, so it any person desires, contribute to the work we will gladly accept the gift and you it will make some heart happy.

"I believe the Negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battlefields of the republic have entitled to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands."—(Senator Harding at Marion, Ohio, July 22.) This utterance by the President-elect should be sufficient answer to those carping critics of the press who are inclined to question the disposition of the coming Administration to give a square deal in the political recognition of all elements of American citizenship. NO DIVIDED ALLEGIANCE. Dr. Kelly Miller of Howard University has written a letter, in which he takes the ground that the appointment of a colored man as Minister to Haiti at the present time would create an awkward situation. He says that a representative with deep race affiliations and sympathy is hardly the ideal American diplomat who must first of all represent the government which sends him and not the government to which he is sent. He adds "the race spirit has become so intensified in Haitian diplomacy that a colored representative would necessarily be placed under great temptation of divided alliances." We think that Dr. Miller's fears are increased in this particular, provided the representative selects his of the proper called. "He must not be of the race whose sympathy runs away with his discretion. He must be of the true type of Americanism, who puts country first. The race is abundantly possessed of this type of character was splendidly manifested during the World War, when all questions of race and color were subordinated to the call of the country. There would be no question of divided allegiance to the right type of man, whether his color were black or white. A policy of justice and good faith towards the rights of the Haitians would be as effectively carried out by a colored minister as a white one, and the former would probably be more apt to find his way made easier. As to the desirability of opening the general diplomatic service to members of the race, instead of restricting them to Liberia and Haiti, as Dr. Miller augue to there can be no question. If such a course were adopted, then perhaps it might be feasible to adopt the further suggestion "to send a member of the Hebrew race to Haiti in the present crisis." But such a representative should possess the same qualifications that would be required of a colored representative. As Dr. Miller truly says, "much of the present predicament in Haiti is due to the unwise policy of appointing a southern white man as minister and filling the important fiscal positions with men of southern birth and attitude on the race question." This "attitude on the race question" as the fatal rock to be avoided. As to a divided allegiance, there need be no fear of that if the proper man is appointed. COL. HAYWARD'S MISSION. The announcement that Col. William Hayward, late of the 30th United States Infantry, left for France last week, was coupled with the statement that he was receptive candidate for the post of American Ambassador to the French Republic. Instead of going to Washington, however, to urge his claims for the desired post, Col. Hayward sailed for France to fulfill a more pressing mission. There were 318 enlisted men and sixteen officers of the "Old Fifteenth," who were killed or died of wounds in France. Many of these lie in unlocated graves among the dead French colonials, with whom they fought, side by side. Since the State of New York failed to appropriate funds to locate and mark the graves of these fallen heroes, Col. Hayward has gone to undertake this task, paying the cost himself. He will attempt to identify the graves of those lost soldiers and to bring back to the relatives and friends of the fallen this composing information. It is to be hoped that Col. Hayward's political ambitions will not be endangered in the slightest degree by his absence in such a sacred mission. It is characteristic of the man that he should put the interests of the "OM - Fifteenth" ship personal ambition. Such a course has amply demonstrated his capacity to serve the country acceptably in this capacity and he would undoubtedly be welcomed with open arms to the French. We trust that after his last service to the "Old Fifteenth" is rendered; he may be named to represent this country at the French capital. TWO CAMPAIGNS CONTRASTED. Last year the campaign to raise funds for the benefit of the 135th Street Branch Y. M. C. A. in a period of nine days resulted in the securing of four thousand dollars in cash and pledges. This year a similar campaign prolonged over a period of thirty days raised but one thousand dollars. The membership of the institution is reported to be falling off and many organizations formerly active in supporting the work refused to take part in this year's campaign: This marked indifference and general decline in the work of the institution indicates that the ugly situation precipitated by the attitude of the secretary is responsible for these unfortunate results. The need for a change in that office could not be more empiastically indicated. The sooner that action of the local board of managers, providing for the separation of the secretary from his present position, is carried into effect, the better it will be for the morale and continued existence of the organization. Any other action in the matter would spell disaster. UPRISING OF THE EXPLOITED. From time to time The Ace has referred to the exploitation of the colored races in all parts of the globe in the interest and for the benefit of white capitalists. Great Britain and her many colonies have been foremost in this commercializing of humanity, the squeezing of dividends from enforced labor as seen at its worst in British-South Africa. The Belgians under the late King Leopold perpetrated the atrocities of the Congo in order to amass millions out of rubber, until a divine Providence visited retribution upon Belgium in the shape of the invasion by the Germans. The Germans, the Portuguese and other European nations have made a hideous desertion in remote parts of the Dark Continent in order to reap a harvest of bloodstained profits. New Zealand, a colony settled by British convicts and criminals, declared in favor of continuing the use of Chinese indentured labor in Samoa, an island in the South Sea taken from Germany. Indentured labor is the commercial term for economic slavery, comprising all forms of intimidation, immorality, degradation and murder, practised upon the indentured workers. In such parts of the United States as Georgia and Arkansas it is styled peonage, while American marines forced it upon Haiti under the French term of cursive. It must not be supposed that this subjugation and exploitation of the colored races has been accomplished without resistance on the part of the oppressed. In India, Egypt, South Africa and other lands under the iron heel of commercial greed there has been protest and revolt. So far machine guns have silenced native protests and stifled the efforts at self-determination of the oppressed. But not for long for no later than last week the cables brought word of new uprisings in two different continents, as follows: Antwerp, March 18—Natives of the equatorial district of Congo Free State have risen and burned nitty trading posts, according to a wireless dispatch from Bona, Congo Free State, published by the newspaper Nettung. Buenos Aires, March 13—Indians living in the high tablelands of Bolivia have risen against the Bolivian Government, and a native chief has preclaimed himself President of the Indian tribes, says a La Paz despatch to La Nacion. Several persons have been killed and wounded. These two itms are full of significance, as showing the undying tenacity of the spirit of revolt against injustice and oppression, as practiced by the stronger forces of capital against the weaker races of the world. Of course, so long as the capitalists have the machine guns and trained military forces on their side, they will be able to crush such uprisings, but it is inconceivable that such conditions should prevail forever. Either the exploited millions will wear out the machine guns by force of numbers or else meet extermination, or the greedy exploiters will become glutten with bloodstained dollars and discover conscientious scruples against further pillage and peonage. There is also a certain section of public sentiment among the whites, both in Europe and in America, which is strongly opposed to this exploitation of the weak for the benefit of the strong. Much depends upon the growth and working of this sentiment as an active force in politics. There is need for a spiritual awakening of the forces of modern civilization to the demands of universal justice, and the dropping of sordid policies based on greed and ambition.

If a member dies the clerk of our camp will mail each member a notice to be present at the funeral and if you fail to show up you will be fined $2. Again if a member is just sick in bed and the Relief Committee mails you a notice to call and see the sick member and you fail to do so, you will be fined $2.

Out of Jasper County, Georgia, come disclosures regarding peonage conditions in that state that ought to shock the nation. Following information which had been laid before the Department of Justice at Washington, agents of the Department began to make investigations in certain counties in Georgia. These agents had questioned Negroes on and about the plantation of John Williams, a white Georgia planter. Williams, who had been guilty of the practice of peonage in its most brutal forms, in order to head off the investigation, killed and caused to be killed a dozen, and perhaps more, of his Negro employees. Some of them had their brains battered out with an axe; others were weighted down with chains and stones and thrown alive into the river near the plantation. Two of them were compelled to dig their own graves. Williams and Manning, the colored man who declared that Williams compelled him to commit eight of these murders, have been indicted and are in jail. The Department of Justice is on the case and it appears that Governor Dorsey of Georgia will take some steps on behalf of the state. In all the history of peonage this is the most flagrant and savage case. The details are more horrible than anything that was disclosed in the atrocities in the Belgian Congo. Anybody who has been thinking of Georgia and the South as civilized sections of the country needs only to read what is coming out of Jasper County, to be undecided. But these are conditions which are not confined to Jasper County, Ga., alone. They apply to the entire region in the Mississippi Delta and, in fact, to all that part of the South where cotton is raised. This condition of peonage is perhaps the greatest curse and handicap upon the Negro in the South. As Walter F. White said in a statement given to the New York "World": "As an isolated case, the Jasper County murder of at least eleven Negroes, because they threatened to reveal promage conditions there, is not as important as the fact that it is indicative of a widespread and closely organized system in the South. Horrible as the facts are, they can be duplicated in every Southern state. The Mississippi Delta region, embracing the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, western Tennessee and eastern Texas, is built on this system of debt-slavery." Thousands upon thousands of Negroes in the agricultural sections of the South have for years been constantly cheated and robbed of their earnings and chained to the soil by this system of debt-slavery. The majority of the Negroes in the agricultural regions of the South cannot better their conditions until peonage in any and every form is absolutely abolished. Peonage slavery is more heartless than chattel slavery. This man, Williams, for example, never would have killed eleven slaves whose bodies belonged to him. They would have been considered too valuable. At the time of this writing the Jasper County affair has assumed an added but well recognized phase. The morning papers report the fact that in response to tales that were spread of a big Negro uprising hundreds of heavily armed white men poured into the county from the surrounding districts. They came in for the purpose of putting down the "uprising." As it was, there were not enough colored people anywhere in sight to give the slightest color to the rumors that had been sent out. Here we have the same sort of thing that happened in the Arkansas cases, only in that instance the ruse succeeded. In Arkansas the colored farmers decided to hire a lawyer and sue their landlords in the courts for an accounting. The cry of a Negro uprising went out and thousands of armed white men came in from Mississippi and Tennessee and massacred scores of Negroes. This not only covered up the question of peonage but threw on the Negroes the charge of a conspiracy to massacre. If there had been gathered together any number of Negroes at any one place in the vicinity when these armed white men came into Jasper County, they would have suffered a like fate to that of the Negroes in Phillips County, Arkansas, in 1919. We deplore what has taken place in Jasper County, Ga., but if these terrible disclosures should arouse the country and bring about an investigation that will end peonage the colored men who died on John Williams' plantation will not have died in vain. GOVERNOR MORROW OF KENTUCKY. Governor Morrow of Kentucky, gives another proof that he is a governor who believes in carrying out his sworn duty to enforce the law. A short while ago a law against lynching was passed by the Legislature of Kentucky. Among the provisions was one which called for the removal of any sheriff, jailer, or other county official who allowed a prisoner to be taken from his custody by a mob. About the middle of this month a colored man was taken from the jail at Versailles, Ky., and lynched. Governor Morrow immediately put the law into execution by removing John H. Edger, the jailer of Woodford County. Edger has been making efforts to be reinstated and the Governor has refused to do this and has said, "It is the duty of the jailer to resist a mob until he is beaten into insensibility or killed. Accepting Edger's own statement as facts in the case, he did nothing to defend the prisoner, asked for no help and demanded no assistance." If every state in the South had a governor like Governor Morrow, lynching would soon be a thing of the past. MR. LANSING'S.BOOK. ing-expected book by former Sire, and naturally it has evoked form of criticism. This is only if Woodrow Wilson cannot by their idol has not only feet of ivory. Of course, the partime observation about Wilson that the facts are all on one season's whole conduct during the iterized only as conduct actual stubbornness and often down explanation of a man posing as a Conference where the affairs of there after having four years At last the long-expected book by former Secretary of State Lansing has appeared, and naturally it has evoked both a wave of approval and a storm of criticism. This is only natural. People who are partisans of Woodrow Wilson cannot by any array of facts be convinced that their idol has not only feet of clay but a head constituted largely of ivory. Of course, the partisans of Woodrow Wilson make the same observation about Wilson's opposers. The great difference is that the facts are all on one side, and the facts show that Mr. Wilson's whole conduct during the Peace Conference can be characterized only as conduct actuated and governed by pride, egotism, stubbornness and often downright stupidity. There is no other explanation of a man posing as a great statesman going to the Peace Conference where the affairs of the world were to be settled, going there after having four years in which to think over the questions that were to be considered, and still going without preparation, without competent advisers, and not even taking advantage of the sources of advice which he did have at hand. Many of the pro-Wilson newspapers, in commenting on Mr. Lansing's book, take refuge in the statement that Lincoln was also criticised. They make much of the fact that General McClellan criticised Lincoln severely and that Seward, Lincoln's Secretary of State, drafted a policy which he felt the President should follow and criticised Lincoln bitterly for not taking his advice. There is, however, a great difference between Lincoln's case and that of Wilson which those critics of Mr. Lansing seem to overlook, and it is this: The results of Lansing's own prosecution that both favoured methods followed by Wilson at the Peace Conference is not confined to ex post facto prophecies. It is very easy for someone to come along after you have failed and say, "I knew all along that you were going to fail," when in fact they did not know anything of the sort or at least did not give you any intimation of that knowledge. With Mr. Lansing it is different. He quotes from his diary that he warned Mr. Wilson against going to Europe, telling him what he felt the results would be. He also quotes from his diary opinions which he formed in Paris as to the probable outcome of the kind of peace treaty that was signed. In many instances these prognostications of the former Secretary of State have come true. Mr. Lansing's book is a great contribution to the history of the Peace Conference, the Versailles Treaty and the League of Nations, as it is written from an inside point of view which no other writer could have taken. The desire of the projectors of this movement, under the Leadership of Mr. John W. Thompson, who worked so ardently to make the Douglass monument a reality, is to make this national holiday annually for colored people. Among the reasons urged for this purpose is the fact that "Frederick Douglass was a statesman and we as this time enjoy the fruits of his labors. As a great national character he enjoyed the confidence of the people at home and abroad." This is all very true, and the injunction to all ministers and orators to impress upon the members of the race confidence in our people, the State and Nation, is both timely appropriate. The suggestion of proper activities befitting the celebration of this holiday is also confided to the discretion of the ministers and speakers. As the projectors do not appear to suggest, that the date be made a legal holiday, the celebration is evidently expected to be of a purely voluntary and official nature. Nevertheless, the celebration should entitle a genuine and popular response. USEFUL AS AN ISSUE. The Norfolk Journal and Guide ventures the opinion that "as a voter, the Afro-American in politics in Virginia is not a quantity to be counted seriously. As an issue, however, his utility increases, rather than diminishes." This conclusion as based on a reported speech by the Democratic County Chairman on "the growing menace of the Afro-American vote to the white civilization of the South." The Journal and Guide corrects some of the misstatements attributed to this county chairman, by saying: It might be interesting to him if he knew that an Afro-American can for the office of United states Senator instead of that of governor in Maryland, and came within 200,000 votes of winning; that only one Afro-American was elected to the Ohio legislature. The colored candidate for governor in the last general election, made the race in Arkansas much further south than Maryland. If he had gotten 200,000 more votes than he did receive he would have been elected. If Mr. Hutchins did not tell his audience about the Afro-American that ran for the office of United States Senator in Virginia in the last general election he missed a great opportunity, and one that occupied much of his speaking this last fall. This candidate came within about 150,000 votes of being counted in. The attention of this presumistic county chairman should also have been directed to the recent bond election in Atlanta, where the Negro voters were appealed to, to make the issue safe for public improvements. This talk about the Negro vote being a menace to public civilization is merely to manufacture the basest sort of political issue, the appeal to race prejudice and intolerance. The sort of white civilization that could not survive the test of the Negro vote must be a pretty low down sort of civilization. The position taken by this county chairman is self-incriminating and degrading to the voters whom he pretends to represent. The Negro vote in the South, if properly appealed to and fairly treated, can be made the prop and support of good government. JUSTICE IN THE COURTS An essential feature of the political system of New York State is the system of administering justice through the courts. While complaint is sometimes made that justice lags in the punishment of the criminal classes, due to the devious procedure of the law, it is generally conceded that the judges deal out evenhanded justice without bias or prejudice in account of race or color. This impartial attitude of the judiciary has been especially marked in construing legislation specially affecting racial interests. At the same time the litigant of the race, whether he appears in the civil or criminal courts, is assured of a fair and impartial hearing by both judge and jury. While this state of things is what ought to prevail in all courts, in all parts of the country, it is rare enough in certain sections, to make it worth while emphasizing at this time. Special attention was directed to this correct judicial attitude as it prevails in New York State by the conspicuous fairness and impartiality displayed by Judge John F. Melintyre of the Court of General Sessions, in the disposition of a difficult case involving parties of both rooms, recently brought before him. The question in which the scale of justice were adjusted on the wedding of the two brothers was affirmed by the Supreme Court. An article in the Kansas City Cell recently described how the Wheatly Provider Hospital of that city is being made "standard" or brought to the Grade A standard of the American Hospital Association. As the hospital already possesses a thousand dollar X-ray equipment and pathological laboratory, but little additional expense was entailed in the effort to attain the desired standard, although it made more work for the physicians and nurses. The rules set forth by the American Hospital Association have been adopted for the conduct of the Wheatley Provider Hospital and every member of the staff is pledged to abide by them. As the rules are designed for the protection of all the patients who enter the hospital, the hospital authorities did a fine thing to standardize their institution. It should inspire local confidence, as well as raise the rank of the hospital. According to the Columbia Light, at the recent State convention of the colored teachers of South Carolina, R. S. Wilkinson, president of the Negro State College, at Orangeburg, presented some startling facts reflecting the attitude of Negro parents toward public school education. Mr. Wilkinson said that out of the very large enrollment of Negro pupils in the public schools of the state due to the dense Negro population, that 80 per cent of them stop in the third grade. That is to say that the average Negro has hardly education enough to read a third reader. He furtherly showed in special data he had prepared that hardly an average of 52 out of all Negro pupils enrolled go through the tenth grade. The president of the convention in his address asked for closer supervision of the Negro schools, larger appropriations, more and better buildings and in general a more constructive program to make the schools efficient and of greater benefit. With better schools the attitude of the parents undoubtedly would change from the indifference alleged above to an appreciation of the greater benefits to be gained. Commenting on the use of the terms "darkies" and "negroes" by some of the white daily papers in North Carolina, the Rocky Mount Voice claimed that the colored people furnish 35 per cent of the circulation of the papers in question. It added: No advertising solicitor on either of these papers says to the advertiser: "Our circulation is 50,000, 35 per cent, of which is composed of 'Negresses' and 'darkies.'" A simple remedy would appear to lie in the hands of the 35 per cent. of aggrieved readers. They could exercise it by the exertion of some self-denial and will-power. But will they? Quite a number of our young race men can be seen daily with gold pieces of various denominations dangling at the ends of their watch chains. The judges of the petty courts have had no mercy on these fellows if they by misfortune chanced to get into trouble. It's a well known fact that the majority of the "shinny" bugs, bootleggers and cadduids "wear the coveted" medallion. Save your money and invest it. Keep it off the watch chain. Good advice, as too much ostentation in the display of wealth is apt to promote its separation from the owner, either in court or out. The civil rights bill is having hard sledding in the Pennsylvania legislature, according to reports, but the Pittsburgh Courier urges the pushing of the fight for its passage, as follows: If any member of the Assembly thinks he has even a ghost of a chance to sidestep the colored citizens of Pennsylvania on the question of their rights, he is doomed now to find his place among the ranks. The Negroes of Pennsylvania are not going to have their rights denied them, and then with slave-like humility serve the party responsible for the denial of those rights. That's the spirit that will win the victory. Make the party leaders realize that you mean it, and the rest will follow. We learn from the St. Louis Argus that the bill to make Lincoln Institute a university had passed both houses of the Missouri Legislature and awaived the Governor's signature to become a law. The bill was introduced by Walthall M. Moore, the first colored member of the legislature, and carried an appropriation of $300,000. The Argus said: We take the writer to the preacher, but he exalted him in sympathy with many of the extemp-tations, petitions and suffering congregations under the name of prayer. The Florida Sentinel announces that will sit in watchful waiting the proposition of the recent million dollars of Jack Lords is devoted for improvement in the long neglected colony and adds forcefully: It is all nonsense, talking about tary conditions when streets beds for streams of water, water lights and sewerage are provided. At long as this neglect is allowed, will the city be an easy prey to That's the line of argument used with the city fathers. Waiting must be supplemented by a talk from the shoulder. Commenting on the organiser should to abolish the use of the term as the Beamont (Tex. of Moor). Every effort should be used to courage the use of images, the orator and the public speaker in a Race man should eliminate their discourses, where often there is a mistake by using it. The standard set the example and refrain from it. Set the standard at home and the proper use will have its praises. Truly said, a reform of the standard charity should begin at home.

The manager of the company afterwards, that he could secure first-class talent at paid by teh theatre manager that he had to do the best under the circumstances. My belief is that if the manager furnished his people costumes and stopped knitting shows, he would not only earn better salaries but would play return engagements. The company is fortunate to show at all. WILLIAM L.

White English Writer Says Only American Folk-Music Is Negro in the London Telegraph of recent date goes exhaustively into the consideration of Negro Spirituals, which he calls "An American Treasure." Writing to the Loving of slaves to Jamestown, Va., in 1010, aboard a Dutch ship, he writes that "to this day no one knows from what port of Africa time or from what tribe." Yet how fraught with ultimate importance that simple act of brigandage all the world knows. Its effect American need not be recorded here; the part directly and inexplicably by the descendant of those slaves—and of other slaves who were brought generation after generation—in the American War is known even more clearly. To the student of folklore it is a curious and significant fact that the only American folk-music is Negro." It is pointed out that the original settler of America came from countries where colonization was centuries old (quoting World's "Folk-song of the American Negro") and they brought to this country their old country, customs, literature and music. The building of a new nation developed wonderful power, but "the beginnings were not advanced, the surroundings too conventional, for folklore was." It had brought his own song from his fatherland—which is why there is no American folk-song. At the same time, there is no American folklore in America—an American production, born in the heart of the exploring the life, not of the whole, but of a part of the continent's country. The constitution of the Negro Spiritual with objectionable words and not the Negro's fault, the writer declares, though he does that in an involuntary variation of the English language produced a new characteristic of his own times — synoptation — became centuries the Bible was the only book he was permitted to are full of Scripture—in 'ragtime'. It: this ragtime which is the point of much of our misunderstanding of the Negro Spiritual, so as soon sense of decorum it is unreally that he should keep while he sings of salvation. The hope of the Fisk Jubilee Singers during the 'Sexties is statement is made that for the first time Europe was quite and significance of those songs. "Unfortunately for it is incredibly traversed by troupes of charcoaled nigger the more recent Southern Synoptated Orchestra, which work in some ways, has not been entirely tolerated inance. Ragtime as we know it is a counterfeit of this song of hands, putting of feet, swapling of body in his and other songs are few and insignificant—the Negro is The stranger who thinks this is fun, and the 'minstrel' face and throws his audience into convulsion—with his have both missed the point." makes an interesting reference to the work of Roland Hass American tenor, and in a later issue of the Telegraph given by this singer at Wigmore Hall on Saturday, of the recital, the Telegraph said, "One had only to activated artist who has not yet forgotten the traditional ings as 'Swing law, sweet charion' and 'Don't you weep realize what a gulf there is between our popular conception and the real thing. There were several of those introduced Witness—in which reference is made to Methusaleh. Elhah, and Daniel as witness—to the great Truth— the Negro singer's powers of interpretation and of vocal Mr. Hayes proposes to give a recital which will include songs of Africa in various dialects and some Brazilian- ment is of special interest because of the fact that one of Mr. Hayes' foreign visit, as announced before his America, is the study of native African music in its original form, he purposes going into Africa and securing material in hand. It is evident that he has not had to await that there are in England any number of native African many of account for him the legends on which the songs are based songs themselves in their original form, preserving the are in whom they were originally rendered. It has been found and definitely illustrated by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor in that the primitive pentatonic scale—1-2-3-4-5—characterizes it individually and in group. The American composer tries to a large extent, but there has been added a result of contact with Caucasian civilization. Hayes has found a source of information ready to his hand to take advantage of its according to reports received mean that he has abandoned his original idea of person- Africans' skill for material, for the writer in the Foliograph in this direction in the following word: he is a man of culture, he is an authority on the songs he sings, and it is his intention presently to visit various part of the continent on research work. Already in London he has worked on his subject, and the other day he took down from a family a native of Lagos, Nigeria, a ballad which tells of a family in which there were three sons, the eldest of which wanted to be a farmer, and the parent gave him his wishes, and he ungrateful because he was obedient. The second wanted to be a hard worker and he was granted his wish, and was successful and happy. The third and youngest had been granted a part of his desires, with a promise of complete fulfillment when he was older, but this boy was discontent, and his pay was slavery and discomfort for the rest of his life. The tune to which this ballad was sung (in the original Yoruba) to Mr. Hagos is typical of the Negro melodies of the States today, with simple difference that it retains the primitive outline of which the territory civilization has robbed the Afro-American tunes." As the Wiggmore Hall recital on March 14, Hayes was greeted with a warm welcome. He sang a program containing a number of art works by Cleridge-Taylor, Negro Singer and songs in French and Italian, DuPont-Burdrain, Faure and Sambrook. The last-named com- poser is represented by Poesie Persian, H. and H. Illumination, to many of the Persian poems, on by Oscar Wilde, the other by Abu-Said. Sambrook is a new composer and theater were sung in London for the first time when Mr. Hayes gave theatre spoken of as "unique and unique." Lawrence B. Brown, the companion Mr. Hayes to Eric the accompanist, is given his splendid work. The theatre of the Telegraph said that "the talented coadjutor, Mr. Lawrence Brown, especially the brilliant Covenant (Foundrain)."—he mighting like the authority and messenger was able to put into the Three of the Spirituals. Lawrence Brown and Ro- dine were in MS.—"I got a home in the Witness, and "I would never pray." contributions to the develop- ment folk music are some published compositives by The Concerto White of Boston. Leaves to the public by Car- lton New York, and com- piles one for violin and the Cotton Fields," and one with piano accom- pliments in Memories." He compiles four tunes of which is the arrangement amplified by the piano making of it for violin. "Nobody knows the trouble I seen." The other three are arrangements of melodies not herefore used, "Bair de burden," "I'm goum' home," and "Down by de rubber side." These are works of merit and Mr. White has preserved largely the original atmosphere. There is an occasional tendency to modernize the structure of the accompaniment, but on the whole he succeeds well in conforming to the primitive scale. These songs, in the original keys, are especially well suited for the repertoire of contralto and baritone singers, and are worthy of serious and sincere study. The violin group consists of "Calin Song," "On the Bayou," and a "Spiritual." Mr. White, himself a violinist, has given of his best effort to these numbers and they are splendidly constructed. The S. Coleridge-Taylor Musical Society of New York City, David A.

It is indeed the most troublesome issue which has been transmitted by the crying regime. The attempted terror of both constitutes the most inscrutable chapter in the annual diplomatic tangle. The nation has always been unable to play the role of opener and high handler to take advantage of the weakness of the weak America assumes the champion of the domestic trials in the Western Hemisphere and is unanimous in the eyes of all the nations. A champion who rattles by the weak will soon portent to his success. Victory and nobility are matters. The role of the lieutenant of the lieutenant cannot be passively accepted at the same time.

The dogma that the southern white man knows best how to handle the Negro has long been exploded. A slave driver knows best how to drive slaves, if slaves must be driven; but it would be most difficult for him to readjust his attitude so as to deal with erstwhile chattle in terms of equality. The southern white man is apt to have a provincial mind and a limited spirit and local outlook so far as race relationship is concerned. He genially mistakes his narrow traditional spirit for the universal mind and the question that must be quickly uninquisitely a missionary propaganda to make it so. The intensity of his zeal for racial traditions necessarily militated against his success as diplomatic agent among the people held in social disrepeat. It might prove practical wisdom to send a member of the Hebrew race on this delicate mission to Haiti in the present crisis. This race is characterized by unquestioned national loyalty, broad human sympathy and international understanding. All elements concerned will have confidence in the rigourousness of his judgment. It is our traditional policy to send a Jew as Ambassador to Turkey because of the military racial, and religious situation. England has just sent a member of his race as Viscount to India to compose the threatened racial turmoil. President Wilson recently appointed a member of this race as personal representative and mediator in Armenia. At any rate it is to be hoped that some way out of this awkward situation will be found by the newly established Admin trainee. (Signed) KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C. VALUE OF A CONFESSION! George Washington Knight, a right princely manmant, on trial in New Jersey, charged with the murder of Mrs. Wilson, a church organist, on a Saturday night in March. He is edated. The woman was white. That has nothing to do with the evidence, but it may have something to do with the minds of those who are hearing the evidence. He is said to have "confessed." Let us see how he confessed and what his voluntary correction was. A woman was found murdered—God only knows by whom. She may have been murdered by a white person—or by some Negro—and possibly by this Negro. Who knows? But this Negro was wandering around that night, and, so he was arrested and charged with the crime. He remembered "grabbing" somebody in the street, but remembered nothing more. All the rest of the "conviction" was supplied by the detective, and all the Negro had to do what he says "Yes." And why did he say yes? "There really hung the tale. Let it be told in Knight's own words in Court. "There were fifteen men in the room where they took me at Police Headquarters. A big man with a black-jack up his sleeve stood over me. I could see the blackjack, and I knew that if I did not answer "yes" to every question I would be beaten up. "Remember that I went to Perth Amboy on Saturday night. We went to Mrs Storm's salon. I had been there twenty-one twenty-buy. Cines before. We had four pints of gin between us. I drank a pint and a half. Then the other men left me. I went out in the street, and I can remember grabbing some one, but I don't know whether it was a man or woman. I can't remember now whether I took with her or not. I can't remember anything else about that night except what they told me at Perth Amboy." A man as drunk as Knight was, too drunk to tell a man from a woman, and hardly have a presumption of murder nearly placed against him. WILLIAM PICKENS. New York City. N.C. WHITES HEAR DR. MOTON ON RACE ISSUE (Continued From First Page) and he might have said anything to them. He did a good deal of plain talking, before he was through. "A teacher of the gospel of good will was the title he took for himself. He wanted to tell the Negroes some things for their, own good, what the white people were thinking about them, and then he wanted to turn the subject around and apply it to the section of the circle occupied by the white people. Advised Race Pride. "He upbraided. Negroes for being ashamed of their race. He charged them to be, proud of it, to be proud of the thing that they have achieved through tribulation in America. He charged them not to be ashamed of their work of whatever nature it might be but to do it, and to do so well that they would not be merely tolerated, but so well that they would be indispensable. Whatever you do, glorify that job," he told them. And don't feel anybody fool you by telling you that what people are not your friends he concluded his charge to the Negro element of the audience, during a performance, the audience, he set forth some of the lies that the Negroes are thinking of them. The Negro does not object to being called a Negro, but he does object to "darky and nigger." They regret the attitude of some white people that hold the belief that all Negroes are bad. "We don't like to be told that we have to stay in our place, the trouble is not in our staying in our place, but that there are men among you who will not stay in theirs," he continued. He discussed the attitude train ministries toward the Negro community in the conditions that found in cars set apart for Negroes. He objected to the neglect of sanitary conditions allowed to exist in Negro sections of cities. For Equal Justice. "It is you white people who make the laws. You have the laws, the courts and the officers, and it seems a shame that you cannot enforce them, he declared when he had come to the general subject of law enforcement, and the crime of lynching. He complimented the people of North Carolina, and in particularly Governor Buckett and the NRA and Observer for their efforts to provide equal justice and to suppress lawlessness. "It is time for you Negroes to talk talking about the white people" he declared at the conclusion. "It is time for people to talk talking about the Negroes. You ought to talk to each other, and together work for the common end of common justice, common understanding, and a solution of your problems." Human Laborerury. "I believe God has set these two races down here together as a sort of human laboratory to prove to the world that two people can live together in harmony and in peace. "It is time to quit talking social equality. We neither want that. We want racial equality. It is for us both to follow the traditions of our people, and don't let any of us stoop to anything that is mean, or that is unjust." That message is bound to do good in the South, declared Governor Buckley when he was asked by Major Lidfidge to speak. "It is the voice of a prophet." The former Governor was given a tremendous burst of applause when he came forward as a request to not be declined to speak more than two sentences. "Not even the combined eloquence of Mr. Daniels' Mayor Eldridge, Major Molon, William Jennings Bryan and myself would warrant further this late at night," he said. The tour was arranged by Berry O'Kelly of Method, who is a warm personal friend and admirer of Dr. Motson and one of the most active members of the executive committee of the National Negro Business League BORDENTOWN, N.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS "The Scandals of 1921" Is a Laughing Success By LESTER A WALTON. THERE is a reading in "The Darktown Strawdale of 1821" that would prove spicy reading in *The Observer* Nov. 9, 1956, or in the "publisher's column." Despite its rather negative reputation it is still one of the rigid censorship of Dr. Hutchins and the Police Department. At times during the performance is the immediate presence of the Fire Department necessary on the stage to apointments combustion. "The Scandals of 1921," whisper at the Lafayette Theatre this week, is a medley of comedy and melody, plus pretty girls with plenty of joy who are minims the usual amount of wearing apparel invariably made conspicuous by its absence in a musical show. "High Yellow Candles" or even a more intrigu title Quintard Muller could have dubbed his show with just as much grace and comedy, for as Mr. Shakespeare has mobilized: "What's in a name." All Harlem is just ready for a musical show, for not since December has this style of entertainment found lodgement on upper Seventh avenue. So "The Scandals of 1921" is being most warmly welcomed, and by large and appreciative audiences. The production is of the revue type, with not insinance of plot. Specialities - musical, and comedy rapidly follow one another with the net result that Quintard Milker and his associates dispense a brand of entertainment that is pleasing. Whether you first continue own Billy Higgins and B. H. Joyner on the beauty charge—that is the question. But as the names of Mrs. Higgins and Joyner are the first to be advertised in big type, for courtesy's sake it behooves me to speak first of the two thirty men who would do credit to any musical show. Each is original in his own particular way and they make the well-known ring with round after round of laughter. Their dialogue in the first act while lying on the ground is too long drawn out, and the talk about Higgins' feet might be taken to the chiropodist for amputation. B. B. Joyner is one of the most promising of the younger comedians. He is coming through with some eccentric dancing that puts him in a class by himself. Billy Higgin made a reputation as a comedian at the Lafayette several seasons ago and with Harlem theatregoers he is Quintard Miller Co., Lafayette Next Wee Quintard Miller Co., To Be Seen At Lafayette Next Week in 'Why Worry?' --- On Monday, April 4, the Quintard in Miller Company of condoms, cigarettes, and dancers will will open its second and last week at the Lafayette Theatre presenting a cyclamen musical comedy entitled "Why Worry?"

THE MISSING MEN OF THE WORLD a big favorite. Some funny com- bination. The biggest song hit in the show "Home Again Blue" is put over by Mrs. Lulu Whitby, assisted by two young men and beauty contours, in this number Mrs. Whitby does some excellent footwork, which is largely responsible for the numerous contours. Miss Marguerite Lee and Miss Theresa Edtrough Brook are both well known to Harlem, having made many friends on former occasions. Miss Brook always pays particular attention to her welfare and in "The Darktown Scandals of 1921" looks as charming as advertised. Miss Lee quite a small individual and trained later to become an exponent of the drama, is successfully filling the role of prima donna. "Timmy" Howell is doing the best work since he started out with J. Lanchez Hill some years ago. Now, as to the members of the beauty chorus, they must be seen to be appreciated. Needless to say, they are appreciated when seen. Surface to say, they are young as to years and length of service before the footlights. "The Darktown Scandals of 1921" is a laughing success, so if you want to spend a few hours in a fit of merriment—use your own judgment. Do., To Be Seen At Seek in 'Why Worry?'

This game has been growing more popular each year, and during the season just before no less than 15,000 people witnessed the eight big games held here in the city. Manhattan Casino maintains its popular as having the best basketball court in Harlem, with the New Star Casino making a strong bid for the honors. Although the public has generously supported the game this season, no one team has showed any marked superiority over the other teams. Early in the season the St. Christopher Club started a movement to stamp out professionalism from the game. Four of the eight players of that club were disqualified for having professional or semi-professional ball. In taking this step other clubs were invited to join in the movement. In other clubs expressed a willingness to join the movement, but showed no disposition to disqualify any of their players in this season. So, to complete sneerfully with other teams in the city, the disqualified members of the Red and Black machines were reinstated.

Aud. 1987 HARRY & LAURA PRAMPIN SCHOOL OF MUSIC THE PAIR THAT MADE THE MUSIC BY IS In the meantime, the Manhattan Basketball Association was formed, but it was so late in the season that very little work could be accomplished. The old prejudices and suspensions of former years have been more marked this season than ever before. The Spartan basketball game a few weeks ago was the first time the city had played each other this season. For this reason, it is very difficult to determine which is the best-colored team in the city. The Spartan team has the test claim on the Eastern championship, because of her record of no deficits by any of the local teams this season. Her only defeats have been at the hands of outside teams. Lloydi clearly showed her superiority over this team, but the Hartrushburg five which defeated the Spartans in Hartrushburg early in February, were casually outlasted in a return game later. The St. Christopher team has played a very inconsistent game this season. At times this team played ball in its old time form, but the loss of the first game with the B. A. C. five, and the last game with the Dunbar five, clearly showed that this team was not up to usual standard. The alpha five made a good showing in its games with the Spartan five, but did not meet many of the other leading teams. The five leading teams in the city this season are as follows: Spartans first; St. Christopher, second; Alpha, third; Vandais, fourth; and the B. A. C. fifth. The national standing of the colored teams is as follows: Lloydi, Spartans Forty Club, St. Christopher and Alpha. The Loebi club of Pittsburgh has the right to claim the Eastern championship. The Forty Club of Chicago is the best western team this season. It is hoped that the local basketball association will have a league formed by next season, so that the actual percentage of the teams, showing their standing, may be kept. And it is also hoped that the rules and regulations of this league will be so strict that the teams who show poor sportmanship will be expelled by the other members of the league. Unless this is done, the public will not continue to support the game, and basketball will receive a setback from which it will take years to recover. The Scotia Chapter. The Scotia Chapter of New York and vicinity met with Mrs Eliza Pelham 168 West 13th street. A large gathering of members responded to the meeting.

A., most imprisoned because of prohibited control Texas police officers after the soldiers had been made victims of most malicious persecution by the others. There was only one order of the day and one subject on very personal mind, and that was to hold a long hand in some way to further a worthy cause. Congressman Tasso of New Jersey arrived from Washington just in time to make the first speech. He said in part that this was one of the greatest demonstrations he had ever witnessed, and he told the audience they had a perfect right to appeal for elemen- hency for those widows, who had won for this government and themselves both honor and respect. He promised to return to Washington and present the matter to President Harding. William Pickens, secretary of the N. A. U. B., and Rev W. Creeder, principal of the Downtown School of Pennsylvania, spoke at length. Mr. Pickens condemned the history of the 8th Infantry from its mustering in and out during the Civil War to the time of the Texas disturbance, and he showed that the regiment had the clearest record of any unit in the U. S. army. An appeal was made to the fund to assist the P. P. P.

Signatures were also secured a petition to be used by the national office, asking clearness for the soldiers. Major C. P. Gillen of Newark and Commissioner Brennan gave short and interesting talks, pleading their assistance. The chairman of the meeting was Dr. W. W. Wolfe, a member of the local executive board, and one of Newark's prominent physicians. He cooperated with the executive committee in carrying the meeting to a successful conclusion.

Mr. Jones gave information as to how the Center might afford instruction to lower the alarmingly high death rate among Negroes, and reduce the large number of children passing through the Children's Court for dependency and delinquency. He also gave statistics from the Health Department showing that colored women worked out in twice the proportion to white women, and how "baby farms" were being utilized by working mothers because of lack of instructions for the proper care of their children.

TO COLORED MEN IN BUSINESS Out of the wreckage of the ingly a very promising indication ofness activities will to some dimentant racial success. There everyone of us colored men in mind that the future will move into permanent success. In vvintent, it would be well for our facts in mind which are as for First: There must be uncooperation for the good of the Second: Negro business onstrate your honesty to your Third: You must think not with whom you serve.

This is a wav among White business men. I and experienced business men and must he for the same real business will have to organize in the past. THERE The Association of Trade organized by some of us Negro specific purpose, the proper dness enterprises; to render and otherwise to all legitimate and terprises; to seek and gut be institutions for the furtherance ored men. Such is the brief the Association of Trade and Out of the wreckage of the past failures, there is seemingly a very promising indication that the present day business activities will to some degree stabilize itself into permanent racial success. There is no doubt in the minds of everyone of us colored men in business, that we are all hoping that the future will mould our respective businesses into permanent success. In view of this sincere desire and intent, it would be well for us to bear certain conclusive facts in mind which are as follows: First: There must be unity of purpose, and intelligent cooperation of the good of the general public. Second: No one should, you will have to demonstrate your honesty to your least intelligent brother. Third: You must think not of yourself but of the people with whom you serve. You must eliminate greed and promote those principles and ethics that have moulded what we know in religion as the "Golden Rule." Fourth: In order that you should be successful in business and rise to great heights like the mighty commercial geniuses of other races, you will have to gather sufficient intelligence so as to understand and coordinate in the matter of organizing, and to believe that your business will stand the strain of cruel competition. Without organizing yourselves would be like trying to change night into day. In this big City, every known group of White business men are affiliated with some organization for the development of his business interest. This is a well known established principle among White business men. For the same reason practical and experienced business men of other races organize, it should and must be for the same reason that we Colored men in business will have to organize more efficiently than we have in the past. THEREFORE: The Association of Trade and Commerce has been organized by some of us Negro Business men having for its specific purpose, the proper development of Colored business enterprises; to render and give assistance morally and otherwise to all legitimate and well deserving Colored enterprises; to seek and get better facilities from financial institutions for the furtherance of business operated by Colored men. Such is the brief concrete principle for which the Association of Trade and Commerce was organized. TO THE COLORED MAN IN BUSINESS It is no need for you to stay you should not stand with cold should jump in and join this r of Negro Business in general, well in a state of trial. We mustples confidence. At this moment of their earnings with our bus that is that we have not organi to take care of their interests. So in conclusion, Mr. Business ethical duty to join hands wi and Commerce for the further commercial interest of the race to criticise and denounce every God's sake, remember after all, in one's life as the consciousness their hit to the development of Represented WILL President of It is no need for you to stand off, watch, and criticise; you should not stand with cold, egotistical indifference. You should jump in and join this movement for the furtherance of Negro Business in general, which includes yours. We are all in a state of trial. We must gain the masses of our peoples' confidence. At this moment the masses spend too little of their earnings with our business men. The reason for that is that we have not organized to fully prove our ability to take care of their interests. So in conclusion, Mr. Business Man, it is your racial and ethnic duty to join hands with the Association of Trade and Commerce to join the further development of the general commercial interest of the race. There is nothing to criticise and denounce everything that is noble. But for God's sake, remember after all, that there is nothing so noble in one's life as the consciousness that they have rendered their bit to the development of their own people. N. B.
