Raleigh, N. C.—President Harding and Attorney General Daugherty have practically approved of the disfranchisement of the eligible and qualified Negro in the South by the recent managers of the Republican organizations (the "lily-whites") by sending to the United States Senate the name of Frank Linney for United States Attorney, Western District of North Carolina.

Yet in the face of this information concerning the political tactics of Linney, President Harding reminds the prosecutor of 100,000 Negro Republicans in North Carolina by mounting Linney for the responsible and important position of United States Attorney. Such conduct is discouraging, not only to the colored Republians in this state, but to Negroes throughout the South, because it taintamount to endorsing the iniquitous suffrage measures initiated by the Southern Bourbon democracy and subsequently adopted and put in operation by the "lily-white." JUDICIARY COMMITTEE REJECTS NOMINATION Special Correspondence to The Ace) WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Linney investigation came before the Judiciary Senate on Monday. Mr. Linney, the committee member, joined the illusory Republican and United States Attorney for the West District of North Carolina, Linney commission for this office, in the investigation of protests from Negroes in the state largely to the Linney as a Republican delegate to the Chicago convention. He requested instructions of the committee that declared in favor of the protest that having supported. Lowly eliminated by disclosure to the commission. The appointment of Linney, as was that of Blair, is believed to be a payment for the support of the Chicago and certainly disregards the welfare of the Negro Republican of the South. Committee Heads Protest The Judiciary Committee at one stage of its proceedings practically rejected Linney, but decided at the request of Senator Overman of North Carolina, one of the Democratic leaders, not to close the case and to give Linney a hearing. The committee was first apprised of the allegations that Linney exerted his influence and efforts against the voting In this connection that the commission of David H. Blair as Commissioner of Internal Revenue for the State is being held up in the court, the night conducted by Susan H. Haun, himself, based on the same case, Blair, as a delegate, ignored.

The principal at stake, says Senator Johnson, is whether or not a delegation elected to a national convention can ignore the verdict of its state preferential primary and vote for some one else other than the choice of the state primary. The appointment of Limee; as was the case of Blair, is believed to be in payment; for the support given Harding at Chicago; and it entirely disregards the welfare of the Negro Republican of the South. Committee Heeds Protest The Judiciary Committee at one stage of its proceedings practically rejected Linney, but decided at the request of Senator Overman of North Carolina, one of the Democratic leaders, not to close the case and to give Linney a hearing. The committee was first appressed of the allegations that Linney exerted his influence and efforts against the voting of Negroes by Bishop G. W. Clinton, a colored bishop of North Carolina. He wrote a letter of complaint to the committee. In addition to this Senator Hiram Johnson, of California, advised the committee that he had received a (Continued On Second Page) or $500 To Be Brown—Declined Hungry and Broke, suicide from Hollson Pay to Desist in the water and he saw Varon sink.

Disgraced over the antiknack, he decided to die. When Grouse saw the money taken from Varon's belt to weep, Dr. Haikou, of the Volunteer Hospital, who attended both mall, said the Negro was suffering from hunger and exhaustion. The police of the Bouche Strait station took up a collection, and Mr. Grouse Varon was sent to the Hospital.

Oldham, on his truck, was wearing the oil plant on Seventh street when the explosion occurred, the force of which bounced him up from the seat and knocked his hands off the steering wheel.

He pulled a heave beam from her back and she got her arms free. Second Explosion Caught Oldham. "Please get me out," she said. While I was digging away at her the boy kept tugging at my ankle and leg trying to pull himself out. He kept telling me to work fast and get the girl out. There was some one else crying.

"The girl said: 'Please, mister, take me out' and the boy said: 'Don't let us burn up. It's getting hot. Get Nan out.' But I couldn't get back again." said Oldham. It was like a furnace and I had no chance. If my helper, Joe Lannon, had been on the truck with me yesterday I think we could have pulled the boy and girl out. It was hard to see that game boy and girl dying, but Colored Citizen Effective Movement (Special to The New York Ace) Roamoke, Va.-Segregation of Negro residents in this city was frustrated when colored citizens appeared before the City Commission in the Corporation Court room, Municipal Building, and protested against action which would have limited the area in which colored citizens could purchase property. So strongly did the delegation present their objections to the Commission that the resolution embodying the proposed action was not even present. Commissioner Angell presided. He expressed surprise at the attitude of the delegation and said that they had been invited to the meeting for the purpose of discussing ways and means by which the housing situation might be bettered. Another member, Commission Sheldon, said the City Commission was doing everything in its power to ameliorate conditions in the colored section, but stated that the purchase of property in a certain section by a colored man had depreciated the property adjoining, which belonged to a white man.

Then Oldham, whose skirt is not very dark stopped on Spencer street when a husky truck driver got down of a street truck and shook his hand. "How's the hero, Millard?" asked the old driver. "I'm driver," answered the driver. "I just helped as best I could, but there's nothing great about that." Oldham was injured. Oldham received injuries which were painful, though not serious, his hands being badly cut and bruised and his left hip being hurt. After his heroic effort, he mounted his truck and drove back to the Swift plant, and wanted to work the day out. The Smith manager, however, would not permit him to do so, but after seeing that he received medical attention, sent him home to rest. "I like to keep no working, but the boys out at Swift's are, all good to me and I have to rest. They took me home yesterday. They're all good fellows I work with," said Oldham. And then a friend of the family came along and asked him to start pounding out working on games for the truck driver as the superhero. (Special to The New York N.Y.) Philadelphia, Pa—Chris J. Perry, Sr. founder and editor of The Philadelphia Tribune, died here Sunday, May 15th. He was one of the veteran Negro editors, the Tribune being in its thirty- seventh year of publication. He was one of Philadelphia's best known citizens and had long been a distinguished Fee- in civic and political affairs. He was at one time a member of the City Coun- cil. The funeral services were held Wed- nesday, May 18 noon, at the Lombard Street Central Presbyterian Church, 9th and Lombard streets, and interment was in Merion Cemetery. The Rev. L. I. Downing, speaking for the colored men, denied the accuracy of this statement, saying, that he had never seen the time when property, of his, could deceive the value of ad- jacent property belonging to a white man. "All we are after," said Mr. Downing, "is civic advantages we deserve and are justly due. There is no question here about social status—we merely ask what we deserve from a civic standpoint. Continuing, he declared that the Supreme Court of the United States had spoken on the segregation question, and it was not within the power of those present to take issue with the highest tribunal of the land, the speaker declared. Downing pleaded to view the issue in the light of the modern day and in the spirit of the "brotherhood of man," to take the matter to "Lord" he declared that it would not be in keeping with the principles of manhood to sit silent when rebuked for defending the rights and character of himself and of his children's children down through posterity.

A. at Metropolitan Baptist Church 128th street at Seventh avenue, the Rev. W. W. Brown, pastor, on Tuesday night, May 17th. The retention of Thomas E. Taylor as executive secretary over the action of a majority of the local committee of management was denounced by the speakers and it was the unanimous desire of the large audience, as shown by the vote taken, that Taylor should resign from further connection with the colored Y. M. C. A. The white men composing the City Board of Directors were also scored for their autocratic action in respect to the colored board. Fred R. Moore, editor of The Age, made a strong speech showing up the various indiscretions alleged against Secretary Taylor, and declared that a high standard of decency and character must be maintained. The statement resided by the white board as to the amount of money put in the "W" building, the race was shown to be aburd, dimensions of the various churches were advised to preach against the unChristian spirit manifested in the Y.

Another representative of the colored race declared that the property recently sold to colored citizens and that the property owned by white citizens had sold to colored people in the white man. He said that he had reared by white people and that they had always been his best friends, and that it was not the antagonism that the colored people are treating. The Rev. Downing also declared that no antagonism whatever was intended by the resolution. Both men said that it was merely a civic matter that it was where 10,000 to 11,000 colored people Mr. Angell, in a very frank talk, told the Negroes that council had done and was doing now everything in its power to give the colored section of the city everything possible. He mentioned the fact that the city budget now calls for improvement of streets in the colored section, and that the longest streets to be improved, Fourth Avenue, runs through the heart of that section. He said that he had been meeting with a resolution which he believed would be helpful in solving the problem, but that he would not offer it. The plan of a development corporation, composed of colored citizens, that would up a new colored residential section with all modern improvements, had come to his mind, Mr. Angell said.

White Men Denounce Dorsey Tom Hardwick, Governor Elect, Leads Pack in Assault on Decency Would Impeach Him "Guardians of Liberty". Believed to be Camouflage for Ku Klux Klan, Frothing at Mouth Over "Defiling of Georgia!" Atlanta, Ga.—The expected has happened, and the Negro-hating element of Georgia, white population, led by Governor-elect Thomas W. Hardwick, formerly United States Senator, has loosened its dogs of war about the beels of Governor Hugh M. Tressley because of his disclosures concerning the treatment accepted the Negro in various sections of the state. Vehement denials caused in subjurious language fill the atmosphere, and all sorts of threats from impeachment to bodily injury, are uttered against the Governor. "Guardians of Liberty" is the name used by an organization which seems to be most active in denouncing Governor Dorsey, but the Georgians are of the impression that this is but another mom de plume for the Ku Klux Klan. This body has issued a call for the impeachment of the Governor, declaring that unless this is done "every Georgian will be particeps crimins in his crime of blackening the character of the nearest mother man ever held by Georgia. Notwithstanding that George, while men sitting on a jury have coveted the crime as compromised by the Governor, in his disclosures, the Governor of Liberty make the allegation that through the Governor's action, George's mother is being held before the world."

Colonel Little Would Serve as Our Hour for Members and Colonel Arthur Little plans to make the armory of the 150th February, N. Y. G. a community center for Charity. If he permits that his example will be followed in other National Guard Dignities of the city. At present the 15th Battalion has no armry. Colonel Lillis said that he did not need an armry of the old type. He hopes his command will accept the upper floors of a building to be erected at 15th and 16th Battalion. However, strength and equipment will be insufficient to build the primary armory of the unit which will be built in the future. The unit has already been given the security. This armory is to be equipped with all modern armories in the army service. The value of the armory and membership in the regiment lies, however, in the team spirit the unit will in the next recruitment so be built. Colonel Lillis insisted that the primary armory be provided for the regiment. He also recommended the guardroom with 600 laths. He also recommended the armory with 600 laths.

It is well known in Germany that Hardwick's political advancement had been founded on anti-Negro propaganda, started by him many years ago when he was a member of the State Liberation from Wachau, Germany, and introduced the first disfranchisement vote on in Georgia. It is a matter of record that when a vote was taken on the Hardwick measure, there was only one vote can for it, and that was by Hardwick himself. He was the only person to vote against him and that is how it happened. He was defeated for reelection to the Senate during the reaction which, and when this country entered the World War, but in the last state campaign he with Thomas E. Watson as captain for the Senate. Hardwick entered the gubernatorial race and won out. His campaign speeches were filled with bitter abuse and exorcism for the governor who was suspected of having in the reinstated degree a kindly feeling for the race. Any hope that Governor Dorsey disclosures would create sentiment favorable to fair dealing for the race. If just assofar as it might apply to Governor-elect Hardwick and his supporters, the malefactors of the John W. Willett will not come through easily but put forth by the Hardwick administration. Sam L. Olley, President of the State Senate, charges the Governor with having abused women in a way he should remedy it as soon as possible. Notwithstanding that the records show almost no lynchings due to assault upon women, Olive brings forth that old argument advanced by the excuser of lawlessness and impoverishment declaring that the only way to stop lynchings is to stop attacked women. It remains to be seen whether the better element of Georgia's white city, reeled by the men, who are deceived in the Inter-Racial Commission programs for betterment of conditions with illification and hate launched against them by demagogues of the type Hardwick and his supporters.

BE SURE THIS SEAL IS UNDERGROUND About 5,000 friends of the 15th, including a large number of military and civil officials, filled the galleries and boxes of the great army that had been so courteously placed at the disposal of the regiment by the commanding officer of the Seventh. The regiment reached the army about nine o'clock and was promptly formed for the review by Major General Daniel Appleton and a large and distinguished staff. Colonel Arthur Little was in command of the 15th Infantry, with Lt. Col. McClinton and Captain Mechan, regimental adjutant, assisting him. The battalions were commanded by Majors Jackson Haan and Shethar, and paraded six provisional companies. With the regimental band the total strength present at the review was more than 500 men, of whom over fifty were overeas wears who paraded in compliment to the organization. It was the largest turn out of the 50s since its war days, and was an earnest of the new spirit and interest taken in the organization by the enlisted personnel. General Compliments Regiment The formal review was followed by evening parade and a "trooping of the colors", and every formation and evolution was performed with snap and precision. Major Appleton complimented Colonel Little very highly for the splendid showing of the 15th, and every officer and soldier in the regiment was entitled to share in that praise. It was the first time that the 15th had appeared on the floor of a great army and their baring and department did them the greatest credit. Every man in the ranks thrilled to the thought that within two years the regiment will be able to stage a review and entertain its friend, in its own great army in Harlem. The military ceremonies were followed by a dance to the music of the regimental band and the soldiers and their friends completely filled the lag drill floor of the armory. Refreshments were served to all. At the same time the officers of the regiment entertained their friends in one of the smaller halls. At 12:30 the regiment was reformed and returned to the armory at 132nd street, a proud and happy lot of volunteer soldiers. The Ladies' Auxiliary and the Gold Star Mother of the lag regiment were special guests of the occasions and occupied boxes on the floor during the review. Central Park Review On Saturday afternoon of the present week—May 21st—the regiment will parade on Fifth avenue from Madison Square to the Sherp Meadow in Central Park, which will mark the first appearance of the Hardin soldiers on Fifth avenue since the home coming of the 300th Infantry, which was the first New York regiment to return from the World War. Colonel Little expects to parade an even larger regiment than last week in compliment to Lieut General Nelson A. Miles, U.S.A. (reputed), who will review the regiment in Central Park and present a new United States soldier to the 15th, as the gift of Lutavette Post, Grand Army of the Republic. This will be the last military inspection of the 15th until mid-later in the year, and all the members are urged to be present, as well as every visitor, as veteran who can join the ranks for the Fifth avenue parade. The review will be followed by a dinner for the entire regiment and a theatre party at the Latviette Theatre. Next week most of the regimental officers will attend the Officers' School at Peekskill.

Barron President Alex Fernan then introduced Dr. C. X. Johnstone, who briefly outlined the club's history and told of its object. As masurer of ceremonies, Dr. Johnstone presented William C. Collins, who sang with splendid effect "There is no death" (OlHare). A trio of violins, written by Levent. Nikell, entitled "Good live," was played by the composer and his two sons, Otto and Engle, junior.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, MAY 21, 1981 (Special to Tux New York Am.) Orange, N. J.—Much attention has been attracted by the complimentary reference to Dr. Walter G. Alexander's first as an Assemblyman made by Warren Patten Coon, chaplain of the State Legislature and field secretary of the New Jersey Patriotic League, Mr. Coon, writing his impressions of the 1921 Legislature for the Newark Sunday Call, referred to Dr. Alexander in the following terms. "Barring the two women members, no one attracted attention as did Dr. Walter G. Alexander, Assemblyman from Essex. Every inch a man, this reputable physician of colored extractions made for himself a name among his colleagues that was second to none in the 1921 Legislature, and the attention she aroused was not only State-wide, but national. He was the author of the Civil Rights bill that passed both Houses unanimously and compelled the admiration of the Governor when he signed Another local honor recently paid Dr. Alexander was from the Essex County Medical Society, said to be the oldest medical society in America. At the regular meeting of the organization, held at Academy of Medicine, April 8th, Dr. Alexander was the principal speaker, his subject being "history of the health bills in this Legislature." The official notice of the meeting, sent to members of the Society, declared, that Dr. Alexander's speech on health bills in the Legislature was the outstanding one, and that "we are proud to acclaim him a member of the Essex County Medical Society." Incidentally, it is declared that this was the first time a colored man has been selected as the speaker before this body. RHETORIC OUT OF GEORGIA (The New York World) Governor Dorsey's courageous effort to end peonage in Georgia by telling the truth about it has been countered, as might have been expected, by a fire-breathing demand for his impeachment, signed, perhaps with unintentional irony, by the "Guardians of Liberty," "Georgia, our mother," runs the appeal, "is being deified before the world. And by the help of the eternal God he shall answer for it" "The conduct of your investigator and you as Governor of the State begs my contempt," says Judge William Searcy in a similar oratorical mood, and with a fine contempt for grammar. Thomas Hardwick, Governor-elect, brands "as an infamous slander on the State these statements that have been sent over the country." Such old-fashioned Simon-pure, flag-flying rhetoric as this derives unmistakably from Tom Watson as the fountain-head and means no more than is usually meant by such verbiage. The difference between Governor Dorsey and Governor-elect Hardwick is simply that the former is an honest man willing to sacrifice himself in order to clean up his community, while the latter is a demagogue willing to snatch at any advantage to cement his hold on his office. Dorsey presented facts in regard to the status of the Negro in Georgia, hoping to bring about reforms. The facts were unpleasant. His opponents would howl him down as a traitor to his State's good name. It will be a sad day for Georgia if they succeed. There is only one remedy for the growing evil of peonage in the South—a conscientious effort on the part of Southern States to eradicate it from within. Such an effort is impossible while responsible citizens obscure the issue with cheap phrases appealing to a cheaper State patriotism. Bronx Giants Defeat Boston Nine. The Boston Nine of the Continental League lost two exhibition games to the Bronx Giants at the Bronx Athletic Field on Sunday, May 15th. McConnells Defeat Newark Athletics the McConnell Giants of Montclair won an easy game from the Newark Athletics in Newark on Sunday by the score of 10 to 5. WITHOUT GIRLS DEAREST GIRLS! DEAREST GIRLS! I felt like a lost child that had to come home Saturday, while reading the New York Act. Forming a club in New York would be nice, "Dimples," but I think the girls from Pennsylvania, North Carolina and South Carolina feel a little different about that as it would be difficult for them to attend meetings. Girls let us adopt "Happiness" idea of "Suggestion Day" and let it be May 28th. Everybody send in their suggestions and let the majority rule. Don't you think this would be a quick way to settle business? We could be organized by June 6th. Vote on everything that has been mentioned before this week. I am asking that New York Act to print all votes of suggestions in a separate paragraph, if something better hasn't been suggested, concerning the column. "Buddy," dear before you ask me, I am going to tell you, that I don't attend schel. I am very sorry to say so. I have been out for a year and a half. I used to attend Central High School. "Red," your riddle is one on me. A stick to candy is like a race horse because its hard to break. Am I right, "Bobbie?" "Jamie" I don't dislike the word "hike," but I can also tell you about an awful one I wore on last year. "Happiness," that was a splendid verse you wrote in memory of your mother. I hope our column brings happiness to you, each week. I want everybody to know that my judge turned out better than before. Yet I can't say it was the best. Why, is the idea of everybody bobbing their hair? If we ever meet in a body, it would be hard to find "Bobbie" and "Djples." "Teddy," have you ever been to Krehw, New Jersey. Do you know anyone there: "Everybody told just why they named themselves; as I didn't I am going to tell you now. My name is "Brownie" because I am brown skin, have brown eyes and brown hair. My friends try to call me "Little bit," but I am too tall for that now. Bye, Bye, Girls, "BROWNIE" WELL GIRLIES: As this is my first writing I will not have a very long nor a very interesting letter, I am afraid. But anyhow I will do my best I have read the various letters in your column and I have decided that I would like to become a member of your circle. Girls is there a possibility after we are organized, of your ever coming to view Roosevelt's home? It would certainly be a wonderful outing for the girls you could come from New York by train or motor, to our home and we could hike to Roosevelt's home. We could all bring, basket lunch, which we would enjoy eating in the surrounding woodlands or on the beach. As "Buddy" suggested I think we should give the girls a chance to have a wider choice before organizing. I agree with "Teddy" in choosing "townie" for president of the club. Remember me girls and write soon. Oyster Bay. N. Y. DEAR GIRLS: After reading some of your letters, I have decided to come into your column. "Brownie," and I are pals, and we are both trying to get more girls to join the column. I am not quite as short as "Brownie," is, and yet I am not very tall; have dark brown eyes, black crimp hair, and am brown skin. "Brownie belongs to the Minerva Club of the W. C. A. and so do I, we have lots of fun every time we meet. Don't tell "Brownie" I told you so. As the girls are so scattered I think that it would be better to be taxed a certain amount a month instead of forming a club. It is Young people's day at our church and I am on the program. Lovingly, "SMILES." DEAR GIRLS: Permit me to join with you at this late time. I have been reading your letters and in fact I want anxiously for the paper to see the girls' column. I approve of the suggestions of forming a club, also of "Brownie" being president. I cannot describe myself very well as I have never seen myself, but I am rather tall with exceptionally large feet and hands. That is how I get my column name. As "Brownie, No. 2," and I are in the same city, I would like very much to become acquainted with her personally. So "Brownie No. 2," please invite me to go to church with you some time. To co-form with the request of "Buddy," I must tell how ignorant and slothful I am. Well, I've finished high school but was unable to enter college last fall on account to illness. I have a few music pupils at present. Very friendly. DEAREST GIRLS I have been hesitating for two weeks because I didn't know what to say that would be interesting to all of you. I am a bookkeeper-quite tall and quite thin but "Bobby," I am from New York. Weren't you glad when you read "Bert's" letter? I am sorry that she used such a flimpy excuse for not joining the church. Every one, especially girls, should be members of some church? Now girls, do hurry and organize. It is a wonderful thing to know such lovely girls in all parts of the country, "Brownie," New York is not far from Newark, you might come over and see me. "Happiness," that was a sweet little poem you sent about mother. I owed my mother a letter for about two weeks and last Sunday night, I dreamed that she was very ill and when I awoke I was frightened nearly to death. The next day I sent her a special delivery full of love and kisses: "Red" please don't tell us about going to a theatre unless you invite us: "Red," "Elite," "Happiness," "Buddy," "Atlanta," "Bobbie" and "Brownie," please send me your pictures. I promise to return the compliments immediately. Don't be lonely: "Melrose," we all love you. Oh My. I nearly forgot "Teddy." I wish you could all come to the wonderful city and allow me to entertain you, Barrels, of love. ETHEL New York City. Mei plus cheres soeurs: So glad to be with you once more. Really, you cannot imagine the enjoyment I get from reading all your letters. "Bert," I am truly glad that we at last have a member from New York City. Remember, that even if our hair is mixed with silver we may have youthful hearts. After all, hearts count a great deal, don't they? "Brownie," I was in your city last week shopping. Possibly, we paused each other. Who knows. "Dimples," if you have two beauty spots in one cheek, could I possibly persuade you to part with one? I'd enjoy life let's better if I had just one dimple. Please consider this request and let me know your decision. Greetings, "Jamie" and "Blinktum," "Jamie," I'll bet you certainly did prize those hard-earned violets. Best wishes for high marks in your exams. "Blinktum," "Dearet "Buddy," I also was at the Lycceum dance and enjoyed myself thoroughly. The storm made it an excellent evening for swimming or rowing. All hail to our future poets, "Happiness" and "Brownie." "Teddie," I wonder if I am included among your Plainfield acquaintances? For your benefit, "Buddy," I will state that I graduated four years ago from Plainfield High School, having completed the classical course. I really don't think you are archaic, "Buddy." I think you are very original. Best wishes to "Robbie" and "Atalanta," and also "Midrose" and "Elite." I hope I have forgotten no one in our growing family. I'm expecting some answer to my riddle. Toujours votre soeur, "RED." Top of the Morning to You. I am sure our circle is growing, and who knows what great things are in store for its girls. It is laqueasure to me to read all the letters, and doubly so when I find one from the Sunny South. That is why I should like so much to know what "Happiness," "Brownie, No. Z., are like, and some how, "Melrose," I feel as if I had passed you in the street sometime while wending my way to St. Paul's Church to hear Rev. Ahe preach. Do you ever go there or not. I do not know the new pastor, "Dimples," what are you doing with two dimples in one check? Were you trying to get a monopoly on dimples? I have always craved a dimple and well shaped nose. Alas and around! Lovingly, "BERT." New York City. HELLO GIRLS: I am one of the happiest girls in the world! How I love to become acquainted with dear new pals! I wish some book to read, as I am very fond of reading. I want something I have not read before. I know you do not know what I have read, but please make up your suggestion and if I have not read it—all right. Did you wear a flower in memory of your dear mothers on May the eighth? I wore four white carnations for mother on Sunday and one for Dad on Monday. Did you ever hear of any one wearing one for Dad? I'll let you guess how I received my name and if you can't I'll tell you. Much love to you. MELROSE. HELLO GIRLS: How I enjoyed the letters this week and her friends are reminded that they instead of Saturday. Well, I still have the toothache and had it last week, the reason I did not write, but am taking treatment from a very good dentist. Now, don't let me surprise you, "Elite," for I may see you real soon and I have put your number in my address book-so beware, "Happiness," I will send you a snap as soon as I can but don't be surprised when you see me, for I am just a Brownie, nothing more, Yes, "Brownie," it is lovely, there with roses and honey-suckles in bloom and a nice long ride to the beach after a days work in the office is very enjoyable "Melrose," glad to meet you, "Red," are you really "red?" I can dance, but Oh, you singing! Not guilty, "Bobbie" yes, we are far from each other, but yet so near. Well, I will try and answer "Bobbie" riddle, "TH MORE YOU LICK THE FASTER IT GOES." Am I right? Lovingly, BROWNIE NO. 2. Wilmington. N. C. Since today is Monday the sixteenth: I am in New York celebrating my birthday, making candy (some of my famous fudge!) you know what I mean. Well, girls, I can do as I please now, since I am eighteen. I have just come in from snapping some pictures and what I mean we had some fun! "Red" I have just mailed you a funny postal and I congratulate you. You know what for. ("Red" don't forget my birthday present you promised me). "Brunnie." I would like to see you personally so I am going to look you up the next time I come over on a shopping Youth and Beauty Chats "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." But when try and try again, and all your trying is in vain, then it need indeed, another rule on "To succeed." Perhaps for a few days, weeks, or even months, we care and attention to our personal appearance; hair, skin, weight; and then gradually, because we don't get innuimate or it takes too much time, begin neglecting ourselves, and sure to feel the method was a failure, when instead we ourselves the failures. However I guess the most us do not usually stick to start long enough. Perhaps for a few days, weeks, or even we will give care and attention to our personal appearance, skin, nails and weight; and then gradually, because we don't mediate results, or it takes too much time, begin neglecting and we are sure to feel the method was a failure, who we ourselves were the failures: Take one ounce of sage and boil in one quart of water put in a glass jar and add a half a dozen iron nails; the rust, and the iron will turn the sage black, making a t as a oye for the hair. Apply with a tooth brush. tour, "Dimple's. I am glad you joined, giving a little more marm to our olumn. I am somewhat similar to your description, but I have only one dimple. "Atalanta," you know you promised me a present, too, so I shall expect it when I return home. "Buddy." I guess you know me by this time, as I think everybody in Plainfield would from Atalanta's description. "Teddy." I have an idea who you are as I visit Amboy very often but you don't know me. Hello, New York City. Glad you have joined and encouraging more of your companions to join also. Oh! Yes, the new Plainfield too. I forget your name, as I haven't got the paper with me, but I know you are. Well, sweethearts, since you can't lick me, for my birthday all you can do is threaten now I must stop to look at a present I have just received. I bid you fair adieu. Plainfield, N. J. DEAR GIRLS: I have been reading your column with a great deal of interest and think it quite amusing and interesting. I am an old girl, but since I can not find any age limit printed anywhere in your column, I may as well send you an expression or two. We have a delightful club thirty members strong and tough, we are not very old we intend to make things hum. We delve into literature, art, music, social activities and charities. We creat and maintain a harmonious atmosphere of love, service and social development. Nothing but a refined atmosphere shall permeate our club life. This is simply an introduction to you.

"Red" and "Bobbie" I didn't mean to step on your "corns" when I said that everything was dead, but I too, played basketball last season, and am going to join the tennis club. I like dancing too, but for the majority of girls, I think you'll both agree, that I am right. Hello! "Bert" and "Dimpies." I'm mighty glad to see your names added to our list. "Happiness," you can't realize how much I enjoy your poems. Girls I feel we're forgetting somewhat our days of organization. Now let us have them so that we can really get to work. Will you? Yes. I know you would. "Brownie," were you on the basketball game New Year's Day, or were you just visiting someone. Please tell me, for we live near enough to go, really acquainted. Lots of love to all.

A SPLENDID SHOWING The review of the Fifteenth Regiment of the New York Guard, in honor of Major-General Daniel Appleton, held at the Seventh Regiment Armory, May 13, was a notable occasion. The large numbers in attendance attested the growing interest in the regiment, which made a splendid showing of its rank and file, at its preog strength of 550 men. The effect of this review should be to inspire the younger men of the community to rally to the support of this military organization by joining its ranks and raising its strength to the full quota allowed. The review indicated the possibilities opening to an organization of this class, with the prospect of having an armory of its own provided, where such exhibitions could (frequently be held). Then there would be the advantages arising from military and physical training, athletic sports and social recreation of a suitable character. Colonel Little is to be congratulated upon the splendid showing made by the regiment in the brief period since he assumed command, as well as the harmonious and adequate provision made for those who attended the review as guests. WHY CONGRESS SHOULD ACT The fact that the Republican Secretary of the Navy was quoted as characterizing the charges preferred by the Haitian commission, now in this country, as "the same old rot," moved the New York Times to enter that "Mr. Denby sustains Josephus Daniels, Admiral Mayo, and Admiral Knapp." This inclusion of the new offload head of the Navy among the white-washers of the Marine Corps is discouraging to those who looked to the present administration to redress the wrongs committed under the Wilson regime against the smaller nations to the South of us. If Secretary Denby's former connection with the Marine Corps has not imbu- him with the sentiment that the arm of the service can do no wrong, it emphasizes the necessity for immediate action by the Congress. At the last session resolutions for an investigation of conditions in Haiti were introduced in both houses, but not pressed for action. They should be renewed if necessary and action demanded. The charges and specifications made against the American occupation of Haiti, as printed in Tirr Act last week, constitute a terrible arrangement of the American officials and members of the Marine Corps, Murder, arson, rape and other brutality are detailed with names and dates given. In addition, it is charged that 550,000 of Haitian government funds were caged off to New York; that the Legislative Assembly was dispersed by marines; that ratification of the Constitution of 1918 was obtained by duress and that 9,475 Haitians died in American prison camps in five years; Since Mr. Denby has dismissed these charges as "rot," without even giving them a hearing, Congress is the only body with power to probe into the matter. Let Congress act at once. CLEAN HANDS REQUIRED Attention has been called to the fact that the metropolitan headliner is still at work unduly emphasizing race, in the accounts of crimes committed, or alleged to be committed by Negroes. Whether this insistence on playing up the race of the accused in such cases is the work of artful Southern propaganda is for the reader to decide. The letter calling attention to the latest example of this sort of thing was written by Mr. J. D. Wetmore, an attorney at law, and reads as follows: For some years I have noticed that the New York newspapers, in common with other daily newspapers throughout the country, feature all crimes committed by Negroes, and generally use big headlines, such as "NEGRO ASSAULTS WOMAN" "NEGRO ROBS WOMAN" "NEGRO KILLS MAN", etc. and, I have often wondered why the leading Colored papers in the Country did not get together and constantly call this addition of affairs, to the attention of the Editors of the different daily papers. The New York Herald of Thursday, May 12th, on the sixth page, there appears the following headline: "NEGRO ASSAILANT OF WOMAN SOUGHT" and on the last page of the same paper, the same day, is a similar headline, as follows: "TWO NEGROES HELD ON ROBBER CHARGE" and in the same paper there are at least half a dozen stories of other crimes committed by Negroes. are headed, "IRISHMAN COMMITS CRIME," "ITALIAN, SWEDEN, GERMAN, or any other race commits crime." Of course you must realize that the use of these glaring headlines, in reference to crimes committed by Negroes, have a terrible Effect on the minds of the average newspaper reader, as he, or she, unconsciously concludes that Negroes must be forever committing crimes, because the papers are always featuring the comedians. When the same people do not take the trouble to investigate and find out that the percentage of crimes committed by Negroes, are very small in comparison with the Negro population of this, and the other metropolitan cities. GOVERNOR DORSEY UNDER ATTACK. The New York Herald, and most of the New York Herald, papers, are very fair on the race question on their editorial comment, and if you, and the other editors of the colored papers in this city would get together, and go to the office of the editor of different New York daily papers, and call their attention to this matter. I have not the slightest doubt, that all of the daily papers would cut out this pernicious habit, of always mentioning at the top of an article, telling of a crime committed by colored men, the fact that the criminal is a Negro. The suggestion, as to the editors of the colored papers of New York getting together and calling the attention of the editors of the various dailies to this matter is undoubtedly well meant. But suppose these latter should have some of the recent issues of the colored weeklies on hand, and refer to the fact that most of them play up crimes committed by members of the race on the first page, although the term "Negro" may not appear in the headlines. Would it not be equivalent to saying that the makers of the protest were guilty in almost the same degree of emphasizing, Negro crimes that the headliners of the dailies are? There is an ancient legal maxim we think, which undoubtedly Attorney Wetmore is familiar with, to the effect that the petitioner for justice must come into court with clean hands. We doubt if any unbiased court would hold the editors taking up such a proposition, could comply with this requirement. Let the editors of the Negro papers first cease to devote their greatest efforts to exploiting news of crime and criminals, then they can with some measure of consistency adopt the suggestion of our correspondent. NEW KIND OF BOYCOTT. A correspondent of THE AG. has sent us a clipping from the Birmingham Verig, in which an indirect suggestion is made that the white people in that part of Alabama boycott those professional men who employ colored maids in their offices. The reason for this narrow and selfish policy is to force the colored women back into domestic service. The letter reads as follows: There is no doubt that the scarcity of domestic help colored is largely due to the custom of employing colored maids in the office buildings—jobs which many deserving white girls would be glad to get, if such places were open together race only. There is little actual work connected with such duties, and the very idleness appears strongly to Negroes and encourages them to seek those jobs, in preference to more active work. If these situations were closed to Negroes such places would be promptly filled by white girls of more intelligence and ability, and the several hundred Negroes would return to domestic service to which they are better adapted. I suggest that this subject be taken up by the various clubs of the city, and a converted effort be made to bring it about. While a boycott under any circumstances is unthinkable (7), the white people could conne their patronage to those professional men who employed only white girls in their offices. Now is the chance for the so-called "better element" in the South to come to the support of a man who has dared to speak what the "better element" is supposed to believe. The "better element" has found a spokesman, a spokesman of their own number. If they do not rally to him now, it is proof that this so-called "better element" of the South is only a mirage. If they do not rally to his support, Governor Dorsey is done for in Georgia. But the Governor has given proof that he is a man of courage and a man of courage is always able to take care of himself. The steam of protest which has now broken over him has never silenced or cowed him. He is striking back. For example, a Judge Shirley criticised the Governor for making public one of the cases cited in his book of a colored man, Oscar Edwards, who was whipped by a small group of whites. The Judge stated as an excuse that the Negro had used an oath which no southern white man of proud Anglo Saxon spirit could accept. To this the governor replied.— This is another phase of an old question, which the writer of this letter seeks to solve by introducing the principle of pledge into domestic service. Not long ago we learned from a Negro paper of Birmingham that efforts were being made to use the United States Employment service toward the same end, of discouraging the employment of colored women in offices and restaurants. Evidently, the plan failed to bring about the desired results, hence this suggestion of a boycott. Even the editor of the Birmingham Articles questions, "Would it solve the problem?" Let the white employers try a better and fairer plan to make domestic service attractive. Let them offer higher wages and decent conditions of labor and living. Let them protect their hired help from insult and immoral advances while members of their household. If they have neither the power nor the disposition to do these things, let them solve their domestic problems without calling upon Negro womanhood for a sacrifice. We hope that Governor Dorsey and his small but valiant band may be able to beat back these howling wolves, but we are almost afraid that they are not. It may develop after all that Governor Dorsey is too civilized a man to be able to live in Georgia. THE THREATENED BREAK BETWEEN ENGLAND AND FRANCE. Perhaps not since, the Fashoda incident has there been such peril of a break between England and France. It has come on account of the public remarks made by Lloyd George a few days ago in London with respect to the attitude and acts of Poland. A BROOKLYN PASTOR'S RECORD For the past three years the Rev. W. Spencer Carpenter has served as the pastor of one of the oldest of the Brooklyn Churches, of the African Methodist denomination, namely Bridge Street Church. During this brief period he has developed the usefulness of the church as a living force in this community and added largely to its membership. In our opinion, the British Premier's remarks about Poland were deserved. Our readers will remember that some weeks ago a plebescite was held in accordance with the Treaty of Versailles to determine what disposition would be made of Silesia. That disposition has not yet been made, but in the meantime Polish insurgents under Korfanty have attempted to take Upper Silesia in order that the Allies when confronted with the situation would find an accomplished fact. That is, when they make the award they would find the Poles already in possession of the rich mines of Upper Silesia and would therefore be confronted with the necessity of making the award to Poland. Dr. Carpenter has arrayed himself against the forces of social evil and courageously waged warfare against its practices. He has suffered from physical violence on this account, but it has not diminished his ardor in speaking out for clean living and righteousness. He has made himself an active and useful factor in all movements for racism: progress and development. The Polish government made no effort to restrain Korfanty and when the French government heard there was some likelihood that Germany would send troops into Upper Silesia to put down insurrection, it declared that such move on the part of Germany would be met by an invasion by French troops. This was the climax when Lord Gunner made his new It would be a wise act on the part of the annual conference to return him to the charge than his ban allows us accordingly. famous speech. In making his speech Lloyd George uttered words that do not belong to the politician, but to the statesman, no matter what may have been his reasons for giving them utterance. They were words which belong to the statesman because they did not refer merely to the expediencies of the present but showed a consideration of what will be vital in the future. On arising, he warned the House, of Commons that he would speak plainly, and he did speak plainly. He confessed that he was alarmed and even frightened at the condition in which civilization finds itself today. Continuing he said: "Therefore I think it is essential that, whatever our prejudices may be, whatever our predilections, whether we like this man or dislike this man or dislike the other, we must decide fairly and sternly, according to the past we have signed. [Cheers.] The Treaty of Versailles is the charter of Polish freedom. It may be a bad treaty or a harsh treaty, but the last country in Europe that has the right to complain of it is Poland." He rebuked Poland sternly for her action in language that is almost amazing for its lack of usual diplomatic euphemisms. He told Poland sternly that she did not win the Treaty of Versailles; that while the war was being fought Poland herself was divided; that half of Poland was fighting against the Allies; that the Allies were capturing Polish troops in the German trenches and that Poles fell wearing German uniforms, shooting down Frenchmen, British and Italians who were fighting for their freedom. We quote the following sentences verbatim from this remarkable address: "The liberty of Poland is due to Italy, to Britain, to France. There is not a letter of the Treaty of Versailles that does not mean a young British life, not a letter that does not mean nearly two French lives, and there were hundreds of thousands of Italians. "But Poland did not win her freedom, and under these circumstances Poland above all lands ought to respect every comma in the Treaty of Versailles [cheers]. Now, when Germany is disarmed and helpless through the action of the Allies, Poland says she will fight even against the Treaty of Versailles for Silesia. Mr. Korfanty says that all the Poles in Silesia will die rather than surrender. If they had thought of that earlier, when the battle for Polish freedom was being fought, there would have been fewer British, French and Italian lives lost. But they have only thought of it when Germany is disarmed." The Premier also sounded a warning regarding the future. He asked the House of Commons and the British people to consider the change of circumstances which are likely to come to the sixty millions of German people, whom he characterized as a powerful and resourceful people. He asked them to consider what might be the result if these people should join hands with that powerful people which is now a broken power but which will also regain in vitality—Russia. He asked them to consider what the answer will be when Germany in the future might say: "You are asking us to honor our bond; what did you do with yours when it was against us, whether for reparation or disarmament? You insisted, you threatened to blockade us and you took hold of our coal mines which are essential to the life of Germany because you want us to carry out the Treaty of Versailles. What did you do when Poland denied you under the Silesia?" Loyd George pointed out that Germany would have the right to ask these questions and so she would. We trust that Lloyd George's speech will have the effect of startling the whole entente into something like common sense in dealing with the European situation. THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY, MAY 21, 1921 The wolves of Georgia have at last turned upon Governor Dorsey. It seems that at first they were so dumbfounded by his revelations that they could not utter any cry, but they have found their voices and their howls are arising from every part of Georgia. Even some of the influential newspapers that at first lauded the Governor for his courage are now deserting him and joining the mob that is thirsting for his blood. This outcry is not based on the ground that the statements made by Governor Dorsey were untrue but upon the ground that he has defamed the state of Georgia. Of course, no attempt is made to explain how it is possible for the Governor to defame the state by stating facts. But on the Negro question the popular mob of the South is never rational. Witness the manner in which the Guardians of Liberty, a Georgia organization, attacks Governor Dorsey. Why they call themselves the Guardians of Liberty will perhaps always remain one of the mysteries, but so they call themselves. These Guardians of Liberty have made the announcement that they will hold a mass meeting in Macon, Ga., next Sunday in order to urge impeachment proceedings to be brought against the Governor. The call issued for the meeting reads, in part, as follows: "Unless Mr. Dorsey is impeached every Georgian will be particeps criminis in his crime of blackening the character of the fairest mother man ever had—Georgia. No living man will stand by while a villain dehles his mother, Georgia—our mother—is being defiled before the world. And, by the help of the eternal God, he shall answer for it. Did anyone ever hear such empty, rhetorical bombast uttered on a question which calls for common sense? Every white man in Georgia who has any knowledge at all on the question at issue knows that what Governor Dorsey said is true. He knows that the state of Georgia is confronted with a condition, which it ought to be brave enough to face and to clean up. Nevertheless, we have men who know, or least ought to know, the truth, uttered such rot as is quoted above. One of the chief difficulties of dealing with southern people on any controversial subject is that the southerner is congenitally a rhetorician. He generally thinks he has disposed of an opponent when he has called him a hard name. What hope is there of dealing rationally with any man or set of men who can draw a figure of speech in which Georgia is represented as a spotless mother who has been insulted? But perhaps after all the southerner's rhetorical bombast is only a method of covering up certain deep laid schemes. For instances we know that when many a southern politician blackguard is on the stump villifying the Negro race, he is only talking for votes because he has got to learn that in the benighted South that is a pretty sure way to get them. So there is little doubt but that those who are now hurling bombast at Governor Dorsey have other things in mind. There is little doubt but what they are laying plans which they expect to see worked out in practical politics. It is significant that several leading politicians speaking a few nights ago at a meeting held in Henry County excoriated Governor Dorsey declaring his charges were false or grossly exaggerated. Former Senator Thomas Hardwick, now Governor-elect of Georgia, is quoted as saying at this meeting. THE PRINCIPLE INVOLVED. The fact that the Judiciary Committee of the United States Senate failed to approve the nomination of Frank A. Linney to be District Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina is cause for congratulation. The unfitness of the candidate for the post in question as so glaringly apparent, that it is hard to conceive on what grounds the President and the Attorney General could justify it. "This demonstration here today has convinced me that these are not a bad people nor Georgia a barbarous state, as has been charged. I deny these charges, I brand as an infamous slander on the state these statements that have been sent broadcast over the country." Mr. Hardwick promised the audience that he would take up the charges in detail in his inaugural address. A few high-minded and sincere white citizens of Georgia have lined up with the Governor, but unless their number is greatly and immediately increased, there is little doubt but what Governor Dorsey will suffer political martyrdom at least for what he has done. As was pointed out in The Age several weeks ago, the colored voters of North Carolina, protested against this appointment on the ground that: Mr. Linney, as head of the Lilwhites, the so-called Republican State organization, agreed to meet the Democrats half way in barring Negro voters from exercising the franchise. Such a violation of Republican policy, to say nothing of the contempt of legal rights, was sufficient to stamp his unfitness for any office under the administration, especially one in which his sworn duty was to maintain the Constitution. The principle at issue is one that affects the Negroes all over the country. Is a man who enters into a combination to disfranchise Negro voters a fit candidate for office under a Republican administration? His appointment and confirmation, cannot be regarded in any other light than as setting the seal of approval on Lilywhitism. Wilsonism at its worst could do no greater harm than this. The fact that Senator Overman of North Carolina, a Democrat, advocated the cause of Linney, indicated the light in which the appointment was regarded by those who profit by the suppression of the suffrage. "You say that the cause of the beating of Oscar Edwards was the use by the Negro of an oath, one which no Southern white man accepts. I am sure that you will agree with me that the true spirit of the Anglo-Saxon, to which you refer with a pride in which I share, calls for the resentment of such an insult at the time when given, and never justifies waiting for the cover of night to go in a mob, however small to beat the giver of the insult." LET MISSOURI CLEAN HOUSE A. representative of the St. Louis Argus has been investigating stories of peonage and semi-slavery existing in southern Missouri. Writing from Haiti, Mo., he gave this example: Near here there is a farm known as Taylor farm, comprising something like 300 acres of land. If reports hereabouts are to be believed, and they come from good sources, on this particular farm, the work bell is ring at 4 a.m. and the wage paid for a day's work is $1.00, but the workers never get a settlement. At 11 a.m. the women are called from the field to work in the house, and at 1:11 a.m. they return to the fields to finish the day with their husbands. Workers are not permitted to have hogs, chickens, etc., and the reason, presumably, is to force them to patronize the store; the fortune gives as his reason for not allowing the help to have chickens, cows, and the like is that they will get mixed up with his. It was also alleged that the mayor at Commerce, Mo., does not permit Negroes to board or alight from Iron Mountain trains ahead of white people. It was further stated: In this Town of Hearth, the Negroes are Discriminated by being prohibited ticketed by the People's Republic. They are not permitted to enter the People's Republic at the Town of Hearth. have access to on: small bench, four feet long as a waiting room. At Caruthersville about the same condition of affairs obtain for which the Frisco agent is to blame as much and more than anyone else. It is believed that Governor Hyde of Missouri will give every possible relief in such cases as are brought to his attention, concludes the writer in the Argus. No time should be lost in bringing these flagrant cases of oppression, which have warrant in the laws of Missouri, to the attention of both the state and the Federal authorities. Missouri should not be allowed to fall into the same class with Georgia and other southern states in denying just treatment to any class of citizens. The Missouri authorities also have under investigation a recent lynching at Bowling Green, the victim being a Negro youth, who had been sentenced to ten years imprisonment, on a technical charge. It is alleged that the sheriff made no attempt to resist the mob and that his deputies although sworn to enforce the law, took part in the lynching. So far the investigation was declared to be of a farcical character, the grand jury failing to indict any of the mob. The State authorities of Missouri need to start a general house cleaning in behalf of law and order. TOO MANY WEAK CHURCHES According, to the Baptist Vanguard, a church council called to consider the legality of a church supposed to have been organized in Helena, Ark, refused to recognize the temporary organization on the following grounds; In view of the fact that there are now nine Baptist churches in this city, which city has a Negro population of less than eight thousand people, and that these churches have houses of worship which will furnish seating capacity for at least four thousand and people, or more than half of the entire Negro population; and the fact that four of the nine churches here are not self-supporting, and are unable to pay a pastor a living salary, and as these four smaller churches will of necessity have to ask the help of the larger churches to build suitable houses of worship, and whereas, it is a reflection upon the intelligence of the churches already in existence for any group of men to assume, to organize a church in a city which has already nine churches of the same faith, when they have not so much as offered themselves for membership in any of the existing churches. Other reasons were cited for the action taken, but the foregoing seemed ample to cover the situation. A recent report upon the salaries paid to Baptist ministers stated that the minimum; about $325, was paid to Negro ministers in Arkansas, which would indicate that the market is overstocked in that state and that the Helena Council was wine in restricting the supply. The trouble is in the there are too many wild churches already in existence. The many churches gathering on every way to make a living resort to the ministry as a vocation, when they should be using workers and producers of material things. This is no reflection on the large number of useful members of the ministry who are leading their efforts in ways of right living and in industry. The whole situation recall the told of a good southern man was equally noted for his work rom as for his piety. A illiterate candidate for the minister the bishop that he had seen which had convinced him that called to preach the gospel quiry as to the nature of the candidate said that he letters of fire outlined against "G. P. G." which he interrupted the command "Go preach" "No, brother, the bishop was as replying. "You read the Those letters meant to ground." Many a good tiller of the mistaken his vocation is preaching and starting an church, where the religion is ready fully supplied. The tiller did a good thing by distributing such a policy in Arkansas energies of the race he developed building up of the church existing and the development of and industrial enterprise. The death of Editor C. C. of the Philadelphia Tribune on another landmark of Negro Previous to starting the Perry conducted a column on the Sunday papers of Perry His genial disposition was friends and he became active and served several terms in Council. He was elected to the National Negro Press some years ago and commissar that office until his death. The Negroes of Louisiana attempt to number 200,000, were given a hearing before the State constitutional convention, assembled at Baton Rouge, the subject of the suffrage and election. Bishop R. E. Jones, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, made an address which was printed in the western Christian Advocate, in which said: We come to plead that the officer plank which shall grant a place in Constitution of the State of Louisiana shall be applicable alike to those not discuss standards or measures of qualification. We believe in an intelligent electorate, and in one of the handicap which is natural by the poverty in our ranks and large percentage of immigration in our group, we subscribe to the principle of intelligent suffrage, asking no special favors because of our natural handicap, and no special consideration. Negro is perfectly willing to be insured by any standard that is fair applied to all classes of citizens and the Negro is willing to this, the preferred class, it would seem, or afford to require more of him. If further reasons for our faith are deprived, in brief, we would say that Desire the ballot because it means tection and progress, and by some to hold that American citizenship in the ballot are inseparable. It remains to be seen what effect able argument of the speaker has on the members of the convention. The Southern Christian Press prints the following figures as by the Southern Publicity Comm as to land grant colleges for Secrta Texas leads the South with an am- propriation of over $7,000,000 normal and industrial college in groes at Prairie View.

She has beautiful tones and while quiet and modest in her manner, sings with understanding and power. She will be heard with pleasure, and devotion to study and work will place her high in the ranks of our singers. She sang "Spring's Awakening" (Sanderson) splendidly, Olive P. Hogkowski. sang audits "I'll bacio," and Mrs. Henry was heard in the well-known and imch-lucked duet from II Trovatore, "Mistere," with II Williams, tenor, with a show last year's program, enhanced their deserved reputation and were given an enthusiastic reception. Mrs. Junius-Harris, with art and sympathy, sang Dett's arrangement of a Negro Spiritual, "I'm so glad trouble don't last away," and her work was one of the outstanding features of the evening. Frania Duty did two songs of Dett's Twilight, Dett's Every little wanderer (Vanderpool), with charming effect. She is a promising young singer. As in Mr. Woodward's policy, the Spiritualists were not rearranged or given a sophisticated setting. The original form, as far as possible, was preserved and if there was anything in the singing of them that deserved criticism it was a too-apparent striving for it. The music was simple. Use or organ himes added to modernity of the performance, and also to the effectiveness. The numbers given were Roll, Jordan roll; Go, Mary to toll bell; Peter, go ring dem bell.

The accompanying for solo was divided between Mr. Adger and Mrs. Hawkins, and both did splendid work. In some instances, however, Mrs. Hawkins did not seem to remember it might be well to play pianissimo.

The private organization, the membership of the Caucasian residents of Jackson Heights, and the entertainment was to benefit of the club house improvement fund.

Mr. Eckles has an attractive voice of lyric quality with a strong sense of emotion and effectively after the Italian school Blanche Smith-Eckles possesses a soprano voice of exceptional sweetness and power, and she handles it with definite authority. She seems to be a little too modest in self-appreciation—a great singer, she would not be misplaced. She has the makings of a first-class artist. MUSIC NOTES Mother A. M. E.

Lula Robinson Johnson, soprano solist in the choir of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, New York, and one singer of the city's most popular concert singer, has recently completed a, re- treat tour on tour with appear- ment of Mme. Pa. P. Church, Park- ersburg, W. Va., Cincinnati, and Louis- ville, KY. The May issue of "The Negro Musician" is out, and it is by odds the best number yet issued, both in typographical appearance and in excellence of contents. There has been considerable disappointment at the uncertainty which seemed to exist as to the printing of this magazine, but a slip has been enforced. The newspaper telling patterns that the journal will appear regularly or the tenth of each month. Henry L. Grant, publisher, states in this notice that the printing conditions caused irregularity of issue in the past, but that arrangements have been perfected with a reliable publishing house which will observe this trough. The newspaper assured of regularity of release, careful proofreading and good presswork. The current issue bears out this promise to a remarkable degree. Cleona Collins, soprano of Columbus, Ohio, writes that she will not sing in the East this season. In private life Miss Collins is Mrs. Lacy, and housekeepink duties are so onerous that the singer found difficult to manage more than one long concert, trip, and that itinerary, took her to the southern territory, where a distinctive triumph was realized. She made this tour in January and southern audiences gave her a royal reception. Miss Collins is giving considerable time to work on the organ, the harp, the piano, the recitals in Mt. Vernon, Marion, Hamilton, Dayton, Toledo Newark and Cleveland, all in Ohio, and in Middleboro, Kentucky. In addition she journeyed over to Erie, Pa., on May 2nd, and gave a joint recital with Helen E. Hagan, the distinguished pianist. Easteners are hoping to hear her early next season.

PAN AFRICAN CONGRESS CALLED A FUTILE FANCE Two letters have reached me from your side of the Atlantic inquiring as to the feasibility and usefulness, if any at all, of the holding of this projected, so-called, "Pan-African Congress." Now from the special knowledge which I possess of the historical facts, and present day conditions existing and aid and protect the people, reply that the attempt to hold such a congress would be perfectly feasible, a most expensive and ridiculous farce. I neither know nor care who the convengers are, or what beside lime-light and notoriously, they have for their object, but I do know that Africa as a political entity is lost to colored stadiums, and that they might as well meet, consult and advise for the improvement of the firmament overload as to plan and devise for country and to use no objection evidence. If they could drive out the white man from Africa and let the black men elect their representatives, you could hold a Pan-African Congress, but not otherwise. Powerties for Improvement. I therefore, say that, of any such Pan-African Congress, to improve or better, by on hair's breadth, the political status of a single man, woman or child in all Africa; (2) that such a congress should restore one acre of the black man's land to it lawful owner; (3) that resting Africa from the civilization of the Europeans, if that were possible, and placing it under Negro rule would enhance the status of the one not so, that there is now any other method (short of a resort to arms) of effecting reforms or any political or economic changes in the status of the people of the various African tribes for good, except by petition to, and in cooperation with the European Governments under which they live; (4) has issued a Congress to help the Negro civilization more harm than good; for if as true Negro representatives they would protest against the European regime for natives in any colony; (6) that a single European nation with Negro subjects would recognize their assumed authority, or favorably receive the requests, or deform them; (7) that Negro subjects, 'meddling and interfering and antiguing with Negro subjects of their dominions. Now to those versed in African and AUGUSTA GA. Augusta, Ga., Miss Anita Johnson, a young musician of unusual ability, rendered an instrumental solo with grace, dignity and sagacity during the evening session of the Doctor's State Convention at Tabcarnacle Baptist Church on Tuesday night. Miss Johnson is a student of the Haines-Institute of this city. The Doctor's State Convention met in this city. It was interesting from beginning to end. A boarbecue and picnic was given at Liberty Park at the close of the Convention on Thursday. A new millinery shop is being operated in the Pilgrim Building and a new ladies ready-to-wear in the Lenox store. The garments are owned and controlled by colored. The Service Laundry, a large Negro enterprise, has opened up again for business and is doing excellent work under its new manager. Miss Lucy C. Laney, who has spent the best of her life for the uplift of our people deserves and needs our mortal support and financial support in carrying great work which is so much needed. Dr. C. T. Walker, who is sick at the hospital, is improving moderately. The Negro who fails to read race literature and to register to vote deserts the condemnation of all self-identification. Tommy Jacobs of 503 Twiggs street has returned to the city after a two years stay in New York City. A. G. Gilbert, formerly of the Georgia Mutual Insurance Co., has been appointed salesman for a large rainforest resort and will make Augusta his headquarters. European affairs, the reasons for the foregoing conclusions are too obvious to need defence or elaborations. For the several nations of Europe have divided up, and parcelled out the land surface of the continent of Africa throughout its length and breadth. And the continent is divided into each several nation, its law, government and customs, are absolute and supreme. No agitation from within, nor meddling dictators from without, are for a moment tolerated. What good could possibly accrue to Negro liberty, welfare economic or political, if black men from the several republics should meet with, and concert measures with men from the several monarchies; if black men speak with certainly from Britain. It were better for all concerned that it came not to the notice of the press and people of England that colored British subjects have been advised, primed and urged on by men of either the American or those of the French Republic. Because advising, consulting and taking measures against the authority of our Lord the King is high reason, and we will enail jail ifference in the case of any American citizen, these meet; it will be pure delusion and deception of the people who pay out their money to call it a Pan-African Congress. The most it could possibly be would be merely representatives from the several isolies under European governments. The only possible connection they would have with Africa would be their dark skins; to the aspirations of native Africans, no concession. A beautiful sight, indeed, it would be an ambitious and Negro who want to boss the whole Negro world leading a batch of men from the West Indies and West, South Africa to Paris, under the delusion that he or they can improve conditions in Africa. I say this is mere bluff and lime-light seeking Claima Race is Exploited. - As England has the most colonies, the larger number will come from under the English flag. I advise such men to remain at home; put their money in real estate; educate their children. Let the Conversers of this Pan-African Congress remember that action and re-action are equal. Also that fooling all the people all the time has always failed. The poor colored people are more easily exploited and humbled, than any other by the Nazi groves who have obtained education than the whole white race together. During the late war two such men, one from the Boston Guardian, and the other from the Crisis, New York, managed to get over to Paris making their race believe they were performing wonders for it; but they did absolutely nothing. They were only bluffing and fooling the colored men they went home and like Hitler, whom the President, dent, they "sung round the circle" and gathered in the dollars and the kudos. But I hold no brief for or against this Pan-African Congress, and I am an "knocker," but a forward looking man and progressive. I would rather help than hinder; but can not a sigh. I will still help, and I deep the right of any man to obtain a cheap trip to Europe by exploiting colored men in such tan fashion. Come here moving mountains to produce a ridiculous little mouse. But to come to Paris, the most expensive city today in the world, Room cost from 100 to 390 francs per Hotel, and pensions are charging from 20 to 40 francs per day. Best Way to Serve Africa. Men can serve Africa best by letting her alone. Her civilization and christianization are going on apace. She is under the protecting wing of all Europe. Their wisdom, science, culture are all being bestowed upon her. The great railroad from Cairo to the Cape is opening the continent to world-wide trade and its civilizing influence. If Africa could be given over totally to black men she would retrograde and relapse into barbism. In London at present travelers returning from the West Coast are filling the papers with accounts of their experience among the Leopard men. Negro cannibal murderers almost next door to Liberia in how colony has grown in the West Coast. Negro men in the Western World, copying after Irishmen, to rise up and say we want Africa. We must rule ourselves. and possess Africa. "It is too late!" The individual, or coterie of such, who interfere in African affairs simply because, they are black will do so at his or their peril. England stands, ready with every man every gun not needed in Ireland or India to defend her African possessions. So is France, Italy, Portugal, Belgium and Spain. See how quickly England made war in Egypt to Arab Pasha's attempt to throw on the Brittish voke. Garvey's Movement Denounced. I would rather pass over in institutions, such monkey艺 recently displayed in New York City, of that shallow-painted ambitious black man from the island of Jamaica, totally ignorant of history, who wants to rule and govern in Africa, and whose only ground of claim is his inheritance of a black face. I read in Tirr Ace that Bishop Smith was only a West-Indian leading Halem. West Indians. Be it so; but Garvey must remember Gordon Jamaica, and how promptly the English Governor Eyre hung Gordon for trying his hand at reforms. Well, England is only waiting for Garvey to come where she can clap a hand on him. It is a great shame to let this fellow humiliate and disgrace all the colored men on the planet. So long as he continued himself in barter and trade I was in sympathy with him. France, too, is equally ready to string up black intruders among her Negroes. So long as she remained a colored Lesser Slave, Madagascar for interfering with her regime and sent him in charge in France and it took a long time to secure his liberty. British Colonial Policy Why, the Negroes in British colonies find it most difficult to get a retinue of grievances and necessary reforms from the British Government when petitioning alone along constitutional lines. How can they express their opposition, if printed and engraved only by foreign Negroes? Often educated West African someone, resolve petition to the king, as all British people, with the same language. But English king has the special limitations. They have no power of initiatives. The king must hand in petitions to the Secretary of state for the Colonies, and generally, in his own Negro petition is treated the waste paper basket. For the British bills are still the same as in British treaty days, so far as colonies are concerned. They are shaking in their lives last Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa cut the painter and padree man. And thus hand appalled, burdened and waiting, wearily is judged by the dawning glory of dark mankind. ARCHIBALD JOHNSON Barrister at law, Montreuil, Switzerland NEXT TO HIS BIBLE.

WILLIAM E. PRINCE, Proprietor THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS Boston Negroes Prevent Showing Of Ku Klux Klan Photo Play "The Sport of the Gods" and Other Features at Lafayette Week of May 23 By LESTER A. WALTON Boston Negres have prevented agents of the Ku Klux Klan from exhibiting the "Birth of A Nation" in the "Hub" City, as the sub-joined, appearing in a local daily discloses: Boston, May 10.—The Municipal Licensing Board, of which Mayor Peters is a member, late to days suppressed for an indefinite period the license of the Shubeney Theatre. The action was taken on recommendation of the Municipal Censorship Board, which had viewed it a private exhibition a motion picture which was to have been presented to night. Earlier in the day a large delegation of Negro men and women had appeared at City Hall to protest against the picture on the ground that its representation of scenes in the South under reconstruction after the Civil War would arouse racial antagonism and might provoke disorder. The picture was shown publicly in this city several years ago. At the offices of the Messrs. Shulbert in New York city it was said last night that the motion picture referred to in the Boston despatch was "The Birth of a Nation" and that the presentation was to have been made by D. W. Griffith's producer. The colored citizens of Boston succeeded in their fight to suppress the vicious film in New York, they failed. Moral: Make a determined effort to stop the presentation of an objectionable play or picture before it has been put on—not afterwards. Colored Musicians in Paris Is race prejudice after all a form of jealousy? Instead of our daily papers exulting over the success of colored musicians in Paris, France; they give more space to criticism than commendation to the colored American as the following dispatch shows: Paris, May 14-All Paris is turning out to hear the American Southern Sonatared Orchestra, which has just played a season in the Theatre de Champs-Elysse. Seats are bringing 50 francs each and crowds stand in long lines in front of the box office, and the serious music critics declare that the concert strikes anew note in the art Dunbar week will be observed at the Lafayette Theatre commencing Monday, May 25 in memory of Paul Laurence Dunbar. The feature attention will be the latest plot of dramatic success, "The Sport of the Gods," in six weeks taken from Dunbar's great novel of that name. This picture was drawn by the Real Productions Corporation, and nearly two hundred colored artworks were used. Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson, after greeting "The Sport of the Gods" on the screen, made the following comment: AT LINCOLN THEATRE William S. Hart's latest Paramount picture of the worst "O'Malley of the Mounted," scored a triumph at its presentation at the Lincoln Theatre Thursday night. It is certainly one of the strongest character portraits with which Mr. Hart has favored his followers in many months, to say the least. Thrills abound throughout the action of this virelle photoplay. As O'Malley, a mounted policeman who pursues a supposed murderer with the energy and relentlessness characteristic of the Canadian police, only to be balked at the last when his quarry proves to be the sister of the girl he loves and who has saved his life when he is about to be hanged by hands, he adds another splendid characterization to his gallery of western screen portraits. The story was written by Mr. Hart and the direction by Lumhert Hillver is all that could be asked for. Nowak heads, a capable supporting company and all acquainted themselves with credit. The picture is well worth seeing. MRS. LELIA WALKER WILSON SCORES TREMENDOUS SUCCESS Gypsy Carnival Prettiest Affair Ever. Mrs. Lelia Wilson, captain team No. 2. Child Welfare Committee, gave Gypsy Carnival at New Star Casino. May 10th, for the benefit of the Child Welfare Drive, which was a decided success financially and socially. The C casino was artistically decorated in truly gypsy colors, and the daily dressed "Gypsies" danced to streams of Marie Wavne's music. It was a spetacular sight. The following ladies helped Mrs. Wilson with sale of tickets, etc.; Mrs. Charperson Young, Mary Hicks, Harriet Waller, Berna Austin, Emma Fung, Blanche Hutchinson, Mrs. Perkinson, Florence Lee, Bissie Beardon, Lena Brighthaupt, Lunille Randolph, Minc. May-Beck Cofer, assisted by Dr. Jas- William, Louis George, Blood Thomas, Henry Wilson and Ford Dahny. The following girls assisted Mrs. Wilson at the Carnival: Mrs. Abelde Chessman, Beatrice Wilson, Florence De Loach, Crarina George, Hattie Lucas, Queenie Davis, Miss Sara Collie, Mamie Brigges, Bertha Hartgrove. Mrs. Wilson wishes to thank the ladies named above, and the gentlemen, also the general public for the splendid winter in which they cooperated which help to make this affair the success it was. $47.00 was realized from cigarette case given by Mr. William Wash, Jewel of 2247 Seventh avenue. The Gypsy Carnival netted $27.24. This was the third affair given by Mrs. Wilson. The first affair of music—almost some critics do not like that—note—lamenting that the Negroes are too prone to noise and burlesque. The Concodia avers that Parisians under the influence of the orchestra show evidence of a return to primitive savagery and that the Avenue Montaigne, on which the theatre is situated, will soon be planted with coconut trees. As one critic puts it, the apotheosis of jazz bids fair to make the opera seem a back number, while the Observatory of Paris is said to register nightly a tremendous seismic disturbance in the neighborhood of Pont de L'Malli. Seast bring 30 franes each, and crowds standing in long lines in front of the box office is the answer. Gilpin Wins Additional Laurels Alexander Wolkott, dramatic critic of the New York Times, published a list submitted by correspondence of the ten best plays of the season. "The Emperor Jones," with Charles Gilpin in the title role, is invariably included. The most favored list of ten best plays in order of their appearance are: *Golda Varsci* in the role of "Enter Madame." *Margaret Anglin* in the title role of "The Woman of Bronze. *Roberta Arnold* as Mrs. Tucker (you remember Grace Livingston—well, she married that Tucker fellow) in "The First Year."

Lionelie Atwill as Jean Gaspard Deburau in "Deburau" Laura Hope Creews as Olivia in "Mr. Pim Passes By" Margaret Anglin as Jean in "The Trial of Jean of Arc" Joseph Schildkraut as Lilian in "Lilian". Sunday evening a professional performance of "The Emperor Jones" was given at the Princess Theatre which was attended by many of the leading actors and actresses. At the conclusion of the performance Mr. Gilpin was the recipients of bouquets from Jane Cowl and others. "The Sport of the Gods" is a wonderful picture. Among the other features during this week will be songs, poems and characterizations presented by such well-known artists as Blanche Deas Harris, Lilian S. Wright, Lawrence Chenault and Edina Morton Wilson. The entertainment will also be enlisted by several jazz numbers rendered by talented jazz artists.

Disnuke, another popular, dance promoter as master of ceremonies, who will be assisted by Warren Green and Geo. Fitz Patrick as floor managers. SHELBURN, DARTMOUTH TO COACH LINCOLN TEAM Lincoln University, Pa.—A new and progressive athletic policy has been inaugurated at Lincoln.

First to popularize ragtime in New York City!- It was back about sixteen years ago that entertainments in rathskellers of cafes and restaurants in New York City were all the craze. Eccentric dancing and melodious singing, characteristic of and specially common among coloured people, played a great part in the life of New York City pleasure seekers. After the theatres were closed, to the rathskellers, the crowds would go, "Deacon" Johnson was then new in town! He was ambitious and full of life. He had an object in view that he wanted to accomplish and a goal he desired to reach. Allegible, kind and good-matured, all the time with a happy smile on his face, "The Deacon, as he was called, went from one rathskeller to the other, "Who is the proprietor? - May I see him?" "What is your business?" "Oh, well, I am an entertainer and I would like to see the proprietor or whoever hires the entertainers," "Deacon" never accepted "No" for an answer. "Let me talk with the right man." Once "Deacon" got his eyes based on the eyes of the man who hired entertainers he was good for a job. Once in the place and it was not long before "Deacon was known to all who came and went and to those who stayed around. Sweet singing happy ways, attractive movements, up and down the floor of the rathskeller, and "The Deacon" was at home. Most politely, always accommodating way "Deacon" Johnson. It was not long before "Deacon" Johnson had won his way. Demand after demand was made for "The Deacon". He did not remain long in one place because he could get more money in a larger place. But "The Deacon" was never at a place to which he could not return. Having an eye to business and a desire to help others as well as him with "Deacon" Johnson soon got a "Deacon" Johnson Quartet together. Now the "Deacon" Joachim himself on the road to accomplish what was in his heart to do. Rise in his chosen field of a musical entertainer and as he went up to carry others along with him. How well she "Deacon" has succeeded can not be told in a short article. It is enough to state that his efforts have been crowned with tremendous success. The late and much lamented James Reese Europe, organized The Cler Club in the early part of 1910, Europe, being ambitious and determined on achieving greater things rof himself, did not remain any too long with the Cler Club. Change after change was made in the head and leader of the Cler Club until "Deacon" Johnson was elected president in 1914. For six successive years, "The Deacon" was elected to guide the Cler Boys. Well, you know all life is not sunshine. "The Deacon" had to meet all weather the storm, which he has done manfully. Changes have come about but "The Deacon" is still in town and very much alive. Keep eyes on the newspapers and watch for advertisements from day to day and see what is coming off soon. "Deacon" Johnson is now planning a surprise and he proposes to show New York City folk something new, up-to-date and full of life. Watch the moves of "Deacon" Johnson. "The Deacon" is still the man of the hour. Day by day with time. "Deacon" Johnson moves on and moves up. WATCH THE BILL BOARDS! Colored Inter-Collegiate A.A.Meet at Howard Univ.

C.--Among the crowd of contestants found on Howard's Campus the morning of May 14 was the Orange and Blue banner of Lincoln University. Other representatives were Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute, Dunbar High School, Bordentown (N. L.) High and Hampton. Hampton was disqualified leaving the battle between Howard and Lincoln. Manager Randolph of Lincoln states that his men made a reputable showing against. Howard's overwhelming number of contestants. Some events were composed entirely of Howard men, which continued to build skyward. The outfitte of points which Howard was destined to capture. Lincoln succeeded in getting away with four first places and tied for first place in the pole vault event. Neither Redmond of Lincoln or Johnson of Howard were able to get over the tape at 9 ft. 6 in. in Johnson won on the coin toss. Hailstok of Lincoln ran the mights Robinson of Howard dead in the 440, taking first place. He hit the string in 53 seconds. Cannon of Lincoln taking third place. Branch of Lincoln walked away with the 100 yd. dash in 10 1-5 sec. Trigg took 3rd place for Lincoln. Redmond smashed last year's running high jump record, getting over the tape at 5 ft. 8 inches. Law captured first place tossing "The old discus" and placed 2nd in the 12th shot put and 3rd with the javelin. Captain Randolph showed Contrec that he had to step for the male and he did. Contec took the mile for Howard with Randolph close on his heels. Hailstok, after taking the 440, attempted to run the 480 in which he placed third, with Howard first. The most interesting event of the day was the Howard-Lincoln relay race. Webb Carr the baton with a 122d lead Craft, "the running piece of plunder," for Howard, ate up the distance, coming in with a five yard lead for Howard. Hairstorq of Lincoln held the ground without further loss. Robinson running anchor for Howard got away with a 5 yd lead over Branch. Lincoln's anchor man. Branch ran splendidly, gaining the lost ground, but lost it again on the home straightaway, giving Howard the victory in the principal event of the day. Both teams showed excellent training and an enormous amount of pen. Another interesting event was the open 100 yd dash. Lee Thompson of Baltimore got away with Joe Rainey in 10 1:5 seconds. Bordentown Wins in Washington At the second annual colored intercollegiate track meet held in Washington on Saturday, May 14th, John Watson of the Bordentown Industrial School team won the 100-yd dash, and Eugene Stricklin of the same team was a winner, in the 220-yd dash. The relay team of this school, comprising Brigg, Reid, Stricklin and Watson finished first in the mile relay, but were not awarded first place because of alleged fouling by Watson. The first prize in this race was awarded to the Dumbar High School team of Washington.

Q. GOURDIN ASTAR IN HARVARD-YALE MEET E. O. Gourdin, the all round athlete of the Harvard track team, was the in- dividual star in the Harvard-Yale track meet held in New Haven on Saturday. May 14. Gourdin scored 13 points of the 24-2-3 points scored by his team. Yale scored 02-1-2 points in the meet. On a heavy track Gourdin won first place in the 100 yard dash in 10-2-5 seconds and broke the Harvard-Yale deal meet record in the broad jump with a leap of 24 feet 4 inches. He also finished second in the 220 yard race. Although Yale won the meet, in view of the fact that she won *faste* year by a score of 84 1-2 or 32 1-2 with the same team, the work of the Crimson team was regarded as 'excellent, due largely to the work of Gourdin in scoring 13 points for his team. DEWEY ROGERS NOT IN PENN-CORNELL MEET Deway Rogers, star colored athlete of the University of Pennsylvania, who won the 400-yard race in the recent triangular meet with Columbia and Dartmouth, was not permitted to ac- company his team to Cornell for the track meet held with that school on Saturday, May 14th.

City "board of managers," a sort of "sugar-tin," such as our mothers, to give us when we were babies, to keep us safe. From the position taken by this white board, no really self-respecting No groc can be expected to sit on the "cured board." They have no authority, and as the action of the white board proves in this case, they do not have the respect of their white superiors. This subordinate board is a makehift and a sham merely. And it had on it the ablest and best respected colored men of New York City. No wonder under Gods heaven they have resigned, and the superiors know that the opinion of a like group among white folk would have been favorably considered in any similar case or all self-respecting white members would resign even sooner. This letter of the white board to the colored board is one of the most insulting documents of the kind that we have ever seen, and we have seen a few. It tells the colored men, with formal impulses, that the really YA. And the worst feature of this letter is its poor un-Christian economics. Diack assumes that the right of colored people in the case is to be proportioned to the amount of money they paid for the building of the house. It is the name of the Christian "community" that measures the width of "colored Church" by his bible melee; Will Diack do the same in Heaven? Will the colored saints share Heaven be proportioned to his contributions to the church? Did their colored folk give as much, in proportion to what they possess, as the white people gave, in proportion to white white people, in proportion to the rather "the windows, mite," which they use to elucidate so clearly? If an institution has been so apart by the money of all the Christians, for the special use of the colored Christians, and more especially to keep the black Christians in annoying the white ones in their white preservation,—the Christians have created such a system that should not the leaders of the colored Christians have a say so in this color institution equal to that of an white men! Undoubtedly the staut law will give the property to those who hold the legal title; but do no Christians recognize moral obligation as above mere statutory law, and have they not tried to increase a higher type of worldly economic system? Ask they think they did and well, have the white brethren lost the text that ghosts of Ananias and Saphrura. Are the colored people of New York requiring any rights or titles to the building by USING it and by spending their money and energizes it and it is for all of them. If they use this building for a hundred years, according to Diack's logic, they can be kicked out of it by the white "Christians" simply because they did not pay the major cost of the original building and acquire the legal title to it. There is in them a group of the FF Christian priests we are not talking law, we are talking of Christian preachments and professions. We are not discussing Caesar but St. Paul. Verily, when the Negro enters the modern Christian brotherhood, he is no full member on his Christian principal measure of his share. Those who started to work at the eleventh hour are to be paid off, in Diack's Christians, strictly to the hour This bran of Christianity is not quite as good as some worldly organizations: as in a common lodge of Masons, who become a member and a full man for all of them, as a strong as this of the man who has been a member for forty years. If colored people really have a share in all the schools, "W"—work churches and what not, which the white Christians have helped to erect for them (to accommodate a certain sentiment among the white Christians), the colored race had better, begin at all institutions at all, and see that the deeds are made according to Cases and get according to the Anglicans.

That is a clear issue and can stand on its own feet. Has this colored board any authority? Not a whit according to the pronouncement signed by the white board. The colored men's "hodr" is just a puppet affair, a thing made to please the Negroes and to "be 'em think" that they have some authority, till some real issue is joined. This is just a pactier, this colored educational sermon. Some of those who attended were Dr. and Mrs. J. B. Bodie, Dr. A. C. Mathews, Dr. Timothy White, Dr. A. H. A. Booker and W. H. Johnson.
