Shrewd Manipulation Changes Perfunctory Act of Harlem Medicos Into Strong Endorsement of Alderman-Editor
HarlemDoctors'Assn Action Causes Query
Motion,Not Resolution,Adopted on Another Date—Signed When Assured That It Was Board of Aldermen Plan
What sounded somewhat like a bombshell explosion was heard in Harlem last week when the local paper edited by George W. Harris, Alderman from the 26th district, published what purported to be a resolution passed by the North Harlem Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association, giving unanimous endorsement to the candidacy of the Alderman-editor for reelection.
According to the best information obtainable, there are about seventy-five members of the Association, comprising some of the most prominent and active workers along civic and political lines, in addition to their medical duties, in Harlem. The first detonations heard were utterances by a number of these men to the effect that they knew nothing of the adoption of the alleged resolution with a purported endorsement of Harris's candidacy.

In publishing the text of the resolutions and introductory note stated that the meeting on "Thursday evening, June 22nd 1921" was on record unanimously enjoining for reelection the candidacy of the Alderman of George W. Harris in the Tenth Aldermann District." Dr. Henry O. Harding, secretary of the official association, is authority for the statement that no meeting of the body was held on "Thursday evening, June 22." As a master of fact, according to the records, the final meeting of the body, for the summer of 1921, was held on Wednesday evening, June 22nd, and there has been assembling of the body since that date.
Verbal Motion Adopted.
Seeking to find a basis for the reputed endorsement, to which Editor Harris gave in much prominence, it was found that at the last meeting of the body, on June 22nd, a motion had been offered and adopted that if the candidacy of Alderman Harris be again presented to the people, the North Harlem Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association go on record as endorsing him for selection. It is to be noted that this was in form of a verbal motion, adopted by twenty-one, the number present of a total of approximately seventy-five members.
The resolution as published, however, set forth as considerable length the reasons why the association took this step, though unusual." Alleged activities of the Alderman are covered, covering the welfare of the citizens of Harlem, and he is given credit for a host of unparalleled achievements, including radiuming of race relations at the Harlem Hospital, acquisition of bath bodies, play grounds, play sets and 'finger better' Harlem.
The resolution is alleged, was prepared by the president of the association, Dr. Allen B. Graves, with the above-referred to motion as authorily and, and it is surmised that the Alderman editor was not unaware of the expressions used in setting forth his great work.
The resolution was submitted to the secretary, Dr. Henry O. Harding for his signature, and report it has it that either demurred most emphatically, declaring that it was stretching the accession of the association far beyond its institutions.
Secretary Objected to Action
It is declared that Secretary Harding, in fact, refused absolutely to sign the document taking the stand that the adopter of a motion, tentative in its language,
PRES. KING LAYS WREATH ON ROOSEVELT'S GRAVE
His tenency, Charles Dunbar Burges King, President of the Republic of Liberia, in this country at this time in negotiation with the United States State Department completing the death of the 55,000,000 credit established some ago, visited Oyster Bay, Long Island, on July 4th and laid a wreath upon the grave of the late colossal Institute Roosevelt.
During his incumbency of the president, Mr. Roosevelt was deeply interested in the Republic of Liberia and he received a Commission from that country looking to placing Liberia on the plane of national efficiency. Mr. Roosevelt also arranged for an American commission to visit Liberia in 1909 that tested before the details were approved. Commission being sent by Mr. Lars within six weeks after his return in 1909.
President King was accompanied by the members of the Liberian Presbytery Commission, R. E. R. Johnson, former Liberian Secretary of the Treasury and Gabriel L. Dumont, representing the Commission.

did not justify the use of such definite and unqualified expressions as were incorporated in the resolution and, that if this were done, it should be referred back to the association for action. He was informed, it is alleged, that the course followed was that in common use by the Board of Aldermen, and that it was the usual and proper thing to have the secretary, on basis of a motion adopted, draw up and sign just such a document as was in question. Under the pressure of this official and Aldermanic influence, the secretary permitted his name to be attached even though he was also told that if he didn't sign, the document would be perfectly official with only the president's name attached. Although only twenty-one doctors, dentists and pharmacists were present at the meeting on June 2nd, the Alderman-editor attaches to the resolution a list of forty-four names, following the signature of president and secretary, shrewdly stating in a sentence preceding their names, that "among the members of the North Harlem Medical Association, are"—(the names following)—with no marks to distinguish those who were present from the absent ones.
Doctors Paid For Investigation.
One of the reasons given in the resolution for supporting the second term aspirations of Alderman-editor Harris was his reputed activity in the Harlem Hospital investigation. This has around some curious comment. From reliable sources, it is learned that the association, several months ago, employed an investigator, on salary, to look into the Harlem Hospital matter, assessing each member of the organization the sum of $5 for a fund with which to pay the investigator's salary. At the same time a committee, with President Graves at its head was named to secure aidhivas from patients who had been ill treated at the hospital and from persons familiar with facts concerning allied discriminations. It is alleged that this committee ignored the association's investigator and employed, on its own initiative, a young attorney of the Harlem district, thinking, it was said, that his charge would be nominal. When the young attorney handed in a bill for professional services amounting to $250, the association membership was dumbfounded. So it became necessary to increase the assessment by an additional $10, making it $15 all told, and it was voted to pay as much of this additional sum as was available to the young attorney, but without assuming any obligation as regards, the committee's contract.
Some Partinent Questions.
Therefore there has arisen among some of the doctors' a discussion as to why they should pay for the investigation of conditions at Harlem Hospital and then give the credit to Alderman Harris. And, too, questions are being asked—"When did he secure an appropriation for a bath house in Harlem? And when and where did he secure play grounds?" A demand is being made for more tangible evidence than is contained in a mere assertion as to the

Gustafson, and several minor officials of the department for dereliction of duty on the night of the riot. Roy Ward, head of the automobile recovery department, Roy Meacham, traffic officers E. F. Waddell, chief of police of Sand Springs, a Tulsa suburb, and F. E. Williams, a Sand Springs policeman, are the other men indicted. Seven civilians are also indicted.

Not only are these men charged with neglect of duty in connection with the riot, but they are also charged with failure to enforce law against vice in rooming houses, failure to enforce the prohibition laws, failure to enforce the anti-gun carrying law and automobile stealing.
Attorney General Freeling, who conducted the inquiry, declared that the grand jury unanimously inadequate, as officials and civilians, alleged rosters, should have been included.

But the whites, as is evidenced by after developments, complied with the police officials and with the National Guard for a concerted move upon the "defiant" (?) Negro under the pretext of protecting them and their homes. The charge is made against the officials, both police and military, that not
Shifting Blame to Negroes.
Notwithstanding its indictment of these offenses, the grand jury made an attempt to nix blame for the disturbances upon the Negro citizens, by stating that no attempt had been or was being made to Lynch Dick Rowland, the colored boy under arrest by the sheriff, and that the crowd of whites about the jail was largely a peaceable one. The definite charge is made that armed Negroes, marching uptown, started the trot and that the whites who later took part in the fighting were not to blame. A further charge is made against some of the colored men that they had been spreading the doctrine of racial equality, that arms had been stored in Negro churches and other places. But the grand jury also declared that the majority of the Negroes were not implicated and were ignorant of these conditions;
These statements by the grand jury seem to be the nucleus of a general compulsory part of the white people of this town to shift entire responsibility for inception of the riot upon the colored people. Every statement published by white organizations or individuals makes this a definite charge. And while these officials have been indicted, it is notoriously true that the number of Negroes indicted is almost ten to one as compared to the whites.
As a matter of fact, the white people are only taking advantage of their greater publicity facilities to get rid of the onus of responsibility. They are not saying a word about the eight aeroplanes which circled over the section of the city inhabited by the college people, dropping bombs and liquid fire, confronting any statements concerning the four machine guns placed at strategic points, covering the four main approaches to the same section.
Lulled into Falac Security.
It is not brought out in these statements that these steps were not taken by the whites until after the Negroes had been lulled into false senses of security from further attacks by the whites. It is stated by men familiar with the facts that attempts by the whites to invade the colored section were repulsed during the early hours of the night, and that the whites finally withdrew. The Negroes, who had been fighting in defense of their homes.

Col. William Hayward, United States District Attorney for the southern district of the State of New York, announced on July 5th the appointment of J. C. Thomas, Jr., of 89 West 134th street, as an Assistant United States District Attorney. This is the third appointment announced by Col. Hayward.
Young Mr. Thomas has been a practicing lawyer since 1912, when he graduated from Cornell University with the degree of bachelor of law. He was a candidate for delegate at large to the Constitutional Convention in 1914, and in 1917 he ran for a place of the Board of Aldermen of New York City. During the recent World War he served for a time in the United States Army.
The appointment received the endorsement of Chairman Samuel S. Koenig, David B. Costuma and Alderman Charles H. Roberts, and Mr. Thomas was given appointed and executive recommendations by the Rev. A. Clay-Powell, the Rev. Wm. H. Brooks, and the Rev. J. W. Brown. Thomson took immediate charge of the duties attaching to his new position.
Born April 26th, 1889, in the City of New York, he is the only son of James C. Thomas, Sr., the well-known under-taker of 89 West 134th street, and Mrs. Thomas. He attended P. S. 26 and the High School of Commerce before entering Cornell. His preliminary training in law was received in the law offices of Max Franklin and John William Smith, Manhattan, and Rutus L. Perry Brooklyn, and shortly after graduating in law from Cornell, he was admitted to practice in the state courts of New York, and in the United States Supreme Court.
In addition to his political and legal activities, Thomson has been deeply interested in the case discussed in this article.
development, an aftermath of the injury action which resulted in true just Tulsa's chief of police, John for officials of the department for of the riot. Roy Ward, head of ent. Roy Meacham, traffic officers of Sand Springs, a Tulsa suburb, policeman, are the other men indicted. Aged with neglect of duty in conate also charged with failure to bring houses, failure to enforce the anti-gun carrying law and then retired to their houses and went to bed. But the whites, as is evidenced by after developments, conspired with the police officials and with the National Guard for a concerted move upon the "defiant" (?) Negro under the pretext of protecting them and their homes. The charge is made against the officials, both police and military, that not only did they conceive offenses of white rioters against the colored citizens, but that were themselves guilty of oppressive acts, looting being among lesser crimes charged. However, among the whites charged with looting and arson, there are no prominent persons mentioned, according to statements from official sources.
One of the high-handed acts of the whites against the Negroes was the order issued by Commissioner Adkinson directing Chief Guataton to arrest all Negro porters in returning houses, pool rooms, and hotel rooms, as to whether or not they had been issued the "green tags" which served as safety permits. Following the arrest of numbers of these men efforts of employees to secure their release was unavailing. The police head declared they would be held at the fair grounds camp and worked on the streets.
The Colored Relief Committee.
In the meantime, efforts are being made to relieve and assist the families which have been made destitute by the atrocious acts of the white mob. The Colored Citizen's Relief Committee, with S. D. Hooker, Chairmans, and Rev. R. A. Whitaker, secretary, has its headquarters at Frankfort and Easton streets. An appeal has been sent to the Negroes of Oklahoma and the United States, declaring that thousands are homeless, without clothes and dependent upon charity. The committee is working specially to restore the race's independent status as business men, housekeepers, and residents, and to preserve the valuable and desirable reality upon their homes, churches, business houses and amusement places were formerly situated, and which, it is believed, will be sequestered and appropriated by the whites upon the least excuse. The membership of this committee comprises men and women of highest standing, and contributions sent to this body will be used absolutely for the relief of the present desperate situation. The necessity of this body is made up of S. D. Hooker, chairman, Rev. R. A. Whitaker, secretary, Mrs. A. Bankhead, Rev. James A. Johnson, Rev. H. T. S. Johnson, S. G. Smith, Dr. J. M. Kev, Rev. I. R. McClain, J. Tyler Smith, C. B. Wickham, G. A. Gregg, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., with E. A. Saddler acting as legal advisor, to committee.

NEGRO WORKERS HOLD DEPOSITS IN BANKS
(Special to THE NEW YORK AGR)
Washington, D. C. The Department of Labor has made a brief canvass regarding the savings accounts of Negro workers in typical industrial centers as affected by the industrial depression during the period December 41, 1920, to April 30, 1921.
Out of approximately 350 savings institutions, in industrial centers, carrying accounts of Negro workers, 68 banks reported, furnishing figures showing that the savings of their Negro depositors remained practically unchanged during the four months ending April 30, 1921.
The 47,368 Negro depositors as of December 31, 1920, carrying a total amount of $3,809,609, were increased as of April 30, 1920, to 47,699 with a total savings accumulation of $3,721,474. These figures show a per capita deposit, as of December 31, 1920, of approximately $80, as compared, on April 30, 1921, with a per capita deposit of approximately $78.
In other words, Negro depositors withdrew from the sixxight banks above mentioned an amount of $88,813, or approximate per capita withdrawal of $2, considering the increase in number of depositors. This is certainly an indication of increasing thriftiness of Negro workers.
(Special to THE NEW YORK AGT)
Laurinburg, N. C. - There has recently been organized in the state of North Carolina an Inter-Racial Committee for the purpose of improving the relations between the races in this state.
This committee has at its head some of the leading citizens of the state, including Gov. Cameron Morrisan, hory chairman; Dr. W. L. Potate, active chairman; N. C. Newhold; ex-Governor and Mrs. T. W. Bickett; Mrs. T. W. Lingle, and many other strong and influential leaders.
A religious cooperative committee has also been appointed, which includes, among others, Bishop T. C. Darst of Wilmington, W. A. Harper and Dr. W. A. Campbell. A Negro State committee will be appointed later by Prof. Newhold.
This goes to show what North Carolina is doing for the protection of its Negro citizens and their religion and social betterment. There is no state in the South, with the exception of Virginia, where as good or better religion between the races exists than in North Carolina. It is even said that the so-called race problem is more nearly placed in this state than any other state in the Union and all because the white people of this section have apparently learned the lesson that in proportion as the Negro is improved the entire south will be improved, and with the removal of misunderstanding and hatred between the races, a decrease and ultimately an abolition of lynchings and race riots so prevalent throughout the country will inevitably follow.
This committee is at present active in ing over the entire state. Counties where it has already been established, it is said, have shown marked improvement. It is to be hoped that this movement will spread over the whole south and carry with it a favorable charge in conditions which speaks for peace and good will among men.

Executive Secretary, National Urban League
The National Conference of Social Work with a membership close to 5,000 persons from all over the United States which met in Milwaukee, Wis., June 22nd-29th, 1921, is perhaps the most liberal large conference body in its attitude towards the Negro in this country. Each year in its week's discussion of the many social problems of the day considerable thought is given to social problems as they affect Negro life.
The National Conference of Social Work with a membership close to 5,000 persons from all over the United States which met in Milwaukee, Wis., June 22nd-29th, 1921, is perhaps the most liberal large conference body in its attitude towards the Negro in this country. Each year in its week's discussion of the many social problems of the day considerable thought is given to social problems as they affect Negro life.
In Milwaukee as in other cities numerous colored social workers were seen in earnest conversation with the leading white social workers of the country in the lobbies of hotels and in the corridors if the great auditorium where the conference meetings were held and seated in the small conference rooms and around the conference desks of various national organizations. This is a most effective means of pushing propaganda favorable to the race.
On several occasions in the highly technical Research Division where the most learned experts of the country were considering methods on the handling of statistical facts such coloured experts as Charles S. Johnson, former associate executive secretary of the Chicago Commission on Race Relations, to own erorrithaway now director of research of the national Urban League, Monitor N. Work, director of records and research, Tuskegee Institute, and Forrester B. Washington were the central figures in discussing new methods and points of approach in the presentation of hitherto unpublished facts or in the suggestions of new means of recording evidences of social progress.
the case of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the National Urban League, as special inquiry was made about these two organizations which are working one in the field of political and civic rights, and the other in the field of social service. As to Negro leaders disagreeing, Mr. Atwell replied facetiously that Negroes had adopted themselves quite skillfully to the American custom of developing independence of thought and that Negro thinkers, like white thinkers, do not agree on all questions of public discussion. The triple of humorous aplause that ran through the audience showed that the audience had immediately grasped the significance of Mr. Atwell's reply.
The question was raised by some of those attending the Conference as to whether there should be formed a separate National Conference of Social Work, but it was the consensus of opinion of the thoughtful members who have been associated with the body for some years that no efforts of this kind should be made, as the problems found by social workers among colored people were exactly the same problems and required the same
Charles S. Johnson gave a summary before this group of his study of public opinion on the Negro which will soon be published in connection with the Report of the Chicago Commission on Race Relations.
Disproving Derogatory Prophecies
T. Arnold Hill, executive secretary of the Chicago Urban League on Wednesday, June 29th, addressed the Division on Industrial and Economic Problems on the subject "Present Status of the Negro in Industry." He emphasized the fact that the experience of the nearly 500,000 Negroes who have migrated to the north during recent years has disproved the derogatory prophecies that have been made about the probable results of this migration.
He stated that in Detroit the death rate of Negroes has actually declined five or six per cent, although its Negroes population has increased over 400 per cent. The rigors of northern climate therefore did not produce the epidemics and abnormal death rate which factors have predicted. He stated that migration is still continuing despite the great amount of unemployment in northern cities. He spoke in part as follows:
"Repeated efforts to induce Negroes to return to the South have been turtle. One young fellow who had been in Chicago three days was asked why he came. "To try to get work," he said, "Did you not know there is no work in Chicago? "Yes, he said, "I also know there is no work in Mississippi and I would rather be out of work in Chicago than out of work in Mississippi."
"The employment situation in Chicago called forth the strongest efforts of the Chicago Urban League. It organized ministers and social workers who undertook the feeding and sleeping of unemployed Negroes. During six months, January 1st to June 22nd, the Chicago Urban League served over 40,000 meals and furnished shelter on more than 17,000 occasions."
The Need of Preparation.
The audience was much interested in the question as to whether social workers generally should advise Negro youth to prepare themselves for all lines of work whether the opportunity for using their training is immediately apparent or not. A vicious circle is kept up, it was claimed by the speaker, when we fail to have Negroes prepared when openings suddenly come. Negroes have lost many good positions by failing to prepare themselves because they could not use their training immediately.
In the discussion of Community Problems held under the "Community Division", E. T. Atwell, field representative of the Community Service, Inc., at the request of the chairman, Mr. Braucher, replied to the questions asked from the audience as to "Why do Negroes combine their social organizations and avoid duplication?" and "Why do Negroes combine their

the case of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the National Urban League, as special inquiry was made about these issues in the field of political and civic line in the field of political and civic rights, and the other in the field of social service. As to Negro leaders disagreeing, Mr. Atwell replied quite factiously that Negroes had adopted themselves quite skillfully to the American custom of developing independence of thought and that Negro thinkers, like white thinkers, do not agree on all questions of public discussion. The ripple of humorous applause that ran through the audience showed that the audience had immediately grasped the significance of Mr. Atwell's reply. The question was raised by some of those attending the Conference as to whether there should be formed a separate National Negro Conference of National Work, it was the consensus of opinion that the thought members who have been associated with the body for some years that no efforts of this kind should be made, as the problems found by social workers among colored people were exactly the same problems and required the same method of approach and solution as those handled in connection with our racial groups.
Social Workers Present.
Other well known social workers observed in Milwaukee, in addition to those already mentioned, were Dr. Geo. Cleveland Hall, member of the executive board of the National and Chicago Urban Leagues, and member of the Chicago Race Relations Commission; A. L. Jackson, member of the educational committee of the National Urban League; Wm. R. Connors, of the Cleveland branch of the Urban League; F. T. Lane of the Kansas City Urban League; E. A. Carter of the Louisville Urban League; John C. Dancy of the Detroit Urban League; R. R. Wright, Jr. editor of the "Christian Recorder." Philadelphia; Forrester E. Washington, director of Research of the Community Union, Detroit, Mich. In all there were thirty or more colored delegates in attendance at the meeting. Dr. R. Motton was relected a member of the board of the conference and Mr. Robert Celso of Boston was elected president of the conference. The next meeting of the National Conference of Social Work is to be held early in June, 1922, in Providence, R. L. Already plans are being laid for securing large Negro representation at the 1922 conference and more discussions of those problems affecting the Negro.
The daily papers of Milwaukee, both morning and afternoon gave liberal space to quotations from the speeches of Negro delegates and interviews held with the colored social workers, over the problems affecting the race. This is just a part of the many evidences of the democratic spirit which formed the atmosphere of Milwaukee. The delegates could secure meals and accommodations without any difficulty and it was observed that the colored citizens lived in all parts of the city and in numerous instances occupied apartments in houses where many of the other tenants were white.
Harlem Shoe Co. Making Rapid Progress
Cooperative buying and selling in the retail field has not been very successful in this country, excepting in the buying and selling of food products. The Harlem Shoe Company at Seventh avenue and 131st street is an exception to his statement for although this company's plan for selling shoes to the public at cost has been in operation for only a month, a large number of families have taken advantage of the opportunity now offered by this establishment. To interest more people in their plan, an illustrated booklet has been prepared by the company, which will be sent to anyone upon request. Send for this booklet at once, for we are sure that it can save you money.

A Gift from the Tropics to the Race in America
"HAIROLA" is definitely performed in which positively brightens refillers' half, making it cool and brilliant. No prism is required to be created but after application, light is given to the glass. It is easily blended from hard glass induction. For two years sold and used with success, former Bristol Black Control and South Glass, will be the first to be used in the race.

PLAINFIELD. N.
Flainfield, N. J.—We regret very much the unpleasant, position some of our people were placed in at Ashbury Park, N. J., after the landing of the excursionists, of the First Methodist Church from here last week. Some of our folks who patronized the said excursion were denied nearly every desired accommodation in the Sainted City, so far as to be denied even a drink in water on the board walk. I can't see for my life why our people persist in patronizing a God-foraken place that continues to easily show them they don't want them as does Ashbury Park. I'd rather get together, get a little basket of lunch and go into some woods alongside of a ripping back, than to allow my feelings to be hurt in the above-rated manner. Now, friends, socialism for the next four years to come and let us see if we can't get the race recognition that belongs to us.

A JOLLOR that has to students devote one half their time to actual useful work is so in lieu with common sense that we are amused that the idea had to be put in execution by an advocate as a life-saver for the disastrous race. Our great discoveries are always beneficial; we work for one thing and get another. I expect that the day will come, and are long, when the great universities of the world will have to put the Truthages Idea into execution in order to save themselves from being continued by the Colored slave.

“THE PASSING OF THE GREAT WHITE RACE”
ef aren icee teeeaae Ngee ee en
¢ It may be difficult for some of our readers in Miisissippi, Ala.
«| bama,’ Georgia, South Carolina and Florida not to think that the
.fheading of this article is a quotation from a lunatic; nevertheless.
'|"The Passing of the Great White Race” is a questiqn which is
| being seriously discussed. *
] Several years ago a book entitled. “The Passing of the Great
{White Race” attracted considerable attention. It was not written by
fa yellow jorunalist or a sensational author, it was written by a serious
and scholafly man, Madison Grant, chairman of the New York
Zoological Society. a trustee of the American Museuly of Natural
History and Councillor of the American Geographical Society.
One of the most talked of books last -year was, “The Rising
Tide of Color." by Lothrop Stoddard, a Harvard Ph. D.. and the
author of many books'on world politics. :
The object of both these books was to arouse the white peoples
vf the world to the danger to white world-supremacy. Mr. Grant
approached the subject from a biological and histori¢al point of view
while Mr. Stoddard approached it by a considefation of political
and economic forces now at work. Both authors, however. sounded |
the same warning, that the, decline of white world-aupremacy and
the submergence of the white race were not only possibilities but
probabilities, .
And now conies an organization whose avowed purpose is to
“save the white race.” This organization is the Anglo-Latino-Slav
League with headquarters at 161 East Twenty-Third street, New
York. ‘The president of the League is Maj. Gen. Count A. Cherep-
Spiriddvich. Gen. Spitidovich is making an éflort to convince the
People of the United States that-unless this country takes the lead
along the lines indicated by the League, the white race 15 doomed.
The Anglo-Latino-Slav League also has headquarters im Paris, Rome
and Lisbon.
From an article in a New York newspaper we clip the follow:
ing paragraph, which gives a brief summary of the reasons for the
establishment of the "A. L. $.” League. .
‘The passing of the Great ‘White Kare is nots new idea. Students
of the races and mankind, of natural history, ot geography, of civilica-
tion, have expandede this idea, and have demonstrated in quite a satis
factory manner, by birth statistics, by the law of fecundhty and by the
reed and ambition of nations that the White Race im the march of
years must succumb to the domination of the Colored Race—unless
some preponderant plan of prevention be devised by the Great White
Race now dominant
The same article from which the above paragraph was clipped |)
pointed out the following comparisons between the Great White |,
Race and the Great Colored Race: that the white world today con-},
ists af Europe, the Siberian part of Asia, Australia, North America ||
jo the Rio Grande, and the southern part of South America; and |j
hat the colyred world takes in practically the whole of Africa, the ]>
seater part of Asia, and the larger portion of South America and
entral Americay that the white races occupy 22,000,000 square],
niles; and that the colored races occupy 31,000,000 square miles; | 4
hat the white people number about $50,000,000 while the colored |t.

The Anglo-Latino-Slav League declares that dissension among |4

roposes by a closely’ organized union of these faces ta guarantee and |»

* THE WAR-MAKING POWER.
The American Federation of Labor has‘had up for, discussion
a resolution which, if adopted, will be revolutionary in its effects.
The resolution contemplates withdrawing from Congress the power
to declare war and placing it.in the hands of the people by consti-
tatiunalimendmefit. s .
_ ‘The proposed resolutiongprovides thet a declaration of war mast
have the approval of the majority of thé yoters.of the couatry, and
Shnt “ah shone: voting bn Sover-af di doctnensin ol. grav. quot by
This modification of the propesed resolution makes doub‘ful
whether or not the Federation ia in earnest or ‘not, because it ie
highly improbable that any amendment to the Constitution con-
taining such a provibo could be kdopted. The fandamental policy
of this country is government by 2 majority, s0-if the majority of
the people voted for wag the minority “would, according: to thac
Policy, become a part of the majority, that is, 60 far as practical
results go. . ; > ak cele
But, the main-idea of the resolution is 2 good one and might
have a chance of being put through. It is likely that it would stand
ay good a chance of adoption as prohibition. Furthermore, it is in
accord with common sense. One of the tragedies of history has
always been that of peoples and.nations berg forced into wars
concerning which they knew nothing and cared less, but which
they had to ‘fight and pay for. * . ;
There ix little doubt if the making of wars were taken-out
of the hands of Governments and placed in the hands of the peo-
ple very few wars would be declared, and practically none would
be fought. 3

cannot afford to disarm while other nations remain armed. Nobody
ot-whom we have heard, either in this county or England or
Japan, bas ever proposed such absurd action.
The proposal is that the United States call’a conference of
England and Japan and herself to consider the limitation of arma-
ments, There. uf course, is no reason why all the other military
uations should not be included im this conterence If they propose
that slich a conterence should be held and the linstation of arma-
ments be fixed proporuonately, aeither the United States nor any
other nation would be placed at any disadvantage “beyond which it

General Jan Smuts, Premier of ‘the Union of South Africa, a
man who has proved himself to be a statecman of the broadest
vision and highest ideals. made a profound impression befure the
Imperial Conference recently held in London when he spoke on
this question. General Smuts declared that if England persists in
irying to stagger along under the load of military and naval arma-
ments she is doomed. There may be reasons why the United States
should not take what is not only the spiritual, but the common sense
cadership in this matter, but those reasons have not yet been made

MME. ELLA PRANCE JONES
SINGS TO NEW YORK / UDIENCE
By Rudolph Grant
"Born out of due season" is the only expression comparable with so brilliant a song recital as was given by Mme. Ella France Jones of Boston on Monday-evening, June 20, at Bethel Church, almost a month after the closing of the concert season for 1921. Assisting her were Mr. Bell, baritone; and Mrs. Battle, reader.
The prima donna, soprano simply astounded the wise one, with her silver throated tones and dazzling technique. Her voice remained true to pitch throughout the entire performance. A full and well balanced middle register gave an impression of the soulful genuine lyric voice. But just as the house had settled down to such a social classification, Mme. Jones amazed and thrilled the audience with a flight into the upper ranges of the voice, displaying a coloratura apparatus of rare and voice been heard in New York among our people.
It is certain that Mme. Ella France Jones gill take her place as an artist second to none. It is hard to designate her best numbers. Every song was a lovely piece of work. Puccini's "Butterfly," Scott's "Butterflies," Scott's "Winds in the South"; and Clough-Leightner's "L'hure Exquise," were marked for tonal resonance, exquisite interpretation, and unquestionable enunciation. Insistent encores demanded two or three additional songs in succession two of the same numbers. Marie Jorge Jones played her versatility by accompanying herself.
William Servise Bell, harpist was in good voice, and sang with intelligence and super ease. However, there is a tendency to monotony, because Mr, Bell is over careful in his tone placement. This fault provokes a velling out of the harpist, who, in the words wrote "Die Lotus Blume" in German, and Prothrope's, "What is there in the Heart of a Rose?" The latter was repeated in response to the damnous applause of the audience. Mrs. Keron Battle' read acceptably in her voice did not carry well. E. Aldama Jackson accompanied the charismatic Gerhardt, who was sympathetic and there was a refreshing crispness in his playing of Pollen's "Sea Winds," and Schuberts' "Margaret at the Spanning Wheel."
Mme Strother's Pupila' Recital
One of the largest audiences assembled within its walls for a long time filled Laurel Garden, 73 East 10th street, on Friday evening, June 24th, on the occasion of the hiteenth annual recital by the pupils of Mice Lee Strother and the New Amsterdam Musical Association under direction of Marie Wayne, violinist; Miss Lillian A. Lee of Jersey City; Miss Melt Elaine Clarke, soprano; and little Miss Beatrice-Lewis, dancer.
Thirty-five musical and dance numbers in the program, but this extraordinary lengthy program was not treasome of monotonic to the assemblage. C. Elise Payne served as accompanist, and the prizes were distributed by Miss L. A. Lee, sister to Mme. Strother, and herself one of the leading music teachers of Jersey City, to Mr. P. Peterson, who received a mark of 575 Perfect Stars. Mrs. Evelyn Johnson received 529 and Harold Palma, 521. Those receiving more than 400 were Alice Dodds, Carrie Calloway, Inez Cheeseman, Paul Jones, Iner Johnson, Elise Payne, Livingston Payne, Lillian Powell, Mrs. Saxon and Thel-
One hundred and fourteen pupils were enrolled for the term, September, 1920, to June, 1921. The work will be continued until July 31st, when a month's vacation will be given, the school reopening September 1st, at Mme. Lee Strother's residence, 220 West 199th street.
Bordentown Summer School.
Bordentown, N. J.—The summer school of the Bordentown Industrial School opened July 6. Many students in attendance in the regular school will return to make up back work to advance their grades. The summer school offers remarkable educational opportunities for boys and girls over fourteen years of age. The school will most likely teach the students will be der supervision. The curriculum and the program is adjusted to the weather; the recreation of the students is carefully planned for.
The annual Chautauqua will be held the 21st of July. On these occasions students from this white section of the country are in attendance. They enjoy an afternoon's eating and are interested with purpose in all areas.
THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, JULY 9, 1921.
The Age Readers' Forum
Editor of THE NEW York ACE:
Well, the Limney case has been settled, at least for the present, and the Negroes of North Carolina can congratulate themselves that with the cooperation of members of the race elsewhere, they won't out in their protest.
The women are a crucial animal and, withal, he is perfectly natural. It matters not how much they differ with one another politically and other wise, whenever any one of them is confronted by another or an alen race, they quickly close ranks and become a unit.
Herein is a salutary lesson for the Negro, but he is able and backward in learning it. In the meantime the white man takes advantage of his mental优越ness.
In this protest against Limney's appointment, the Negroes of North Carolina had not only the "lily-whites" but the whole of the Democratic press in the state to fight. Why? Simply because out of a diseased heart the whites will be able to conquer the Negro domination" threatening "white supremacy" in this protest.
Conscience oftimes makes races as well as individuals, cowards, especially when they are unwilling to conform their conduct with their fellow-man to the rules of the game. We are glad to say that in this recent fight, the Negroes of the "Old North State" for once were practically unanimous, excepting perhaps one or two insignificant character, whose opinions leather with other, members of the race.
When the Linnies hearing was set for June 8th one of these cipher characters, a little-cat fish Negro who resides in the eastern part of the state, and who enjoys the unenviable rephiration of making himself more or less conspicuous by boottucking and servile behavior, can suddenly unburden himself to write a letter to the Raleigh News Observer, in which he cautioned the Negroes not to be so rash and foolish as to oppose Mr. Linney; because he is a white man. But for the political capers of this very same little Negro and others of his kind, whB, twenty-five and thirty years ago, made it their business to corral the illiterate Negroes; the Eastern part of the state and hurt them by the Negroes, who would not elect the Negroes would never have been disfranchised in North Carolina. And notwithstanding this kind of conduct, such noncompromises have the brazen effrontery to venture political advice and caution to their supplerves in everything.
God save the mark!
CHAS. H. MOORE,
Greensboro, N. C. June 27, 1921.
TULSA IN RETROSPECT
Q. What occasioned the Tulsa riots?
A. A colored man, nineteen years old, named Dick Rowland, stepping into an elevator in the Drexel building, stumbled and in reaching out to save the girl who was running the elevator. She screamed and he ran. The official investigation howed that she suffuged no injury whatsoever. Her face was not scratched. Her clothes were not turn. Q. What followed?
A. The Tulsa Tribune—destined to issue a denial of its assertions the next day—appeared on its streets declaring that the girl was average the purity of a white woman." Rowland had been removed to the county jail, located on the top floor of the court house.
Q. How did the public respond to the inflaming of the press?
A. "By 9 o'clock that night between 300 and 400 whites had gathered around the court house. Some one had telephoned to a moving picture house in "Little Africa," the Negro section, that an attempt would be made to lynch Rowland. At 9.30 twenty-five Negroes came to the court house armed to protect him. They were first persuaded to go away, but returned, better armed, to the number of seventy-five at 10.30. The two sisters sat glaring at each other.
Q. Prescene the resulting battle.
A. Prescene the battle.
C. came up to the jail, yelling "Bring the rope" and "Get the nigger." Armed mobs of whites broke into warehouse stores and pawnshops, taking weapons and ammunitions. A pitched battle soon broke out, with the "Frisco" tracks as the enemy's main weapon. The white mobs, number more than 10,000, invaded the Negro section, pouring oils of oil on the fires and driving away any fırzman who attempted to put them out. One aged colored couple, found on their knees in prayer, was killed. The man was stanley. Then their house was burned, A. C. Jackson, a colored physician, worth $100,000, pronounced by the Mayo brothers of Rochester "the greatest Negro surgeon in America," sound his house attacked and proceeded to defend the building. He surrendered, and white being carried to Conner Hall for confinement, was purposely shot and killed.
Q. What is the account of this affair with which the public was criminally served?
A. That "radical agitators" had gone in among the Negroes and inflamed them to deeds of violence.
Q. From what sources does the information above set forth come?
A. Very largely from a sheriff of the county, named McCullough, who has told a very straight-forward story of the affair, of which the above is a summary.
Q. How long do the American people remember they cried in settings in this way?
A. Not much longer, if their civilization is to survive.
ALBERT S. BEASLEY DEAD
(Special Two New York News) A
Mary McGill S. Albert S. Beasley one of the most prominent citizens of Macon, died while on a vacation, at his son's home in Boston on June 15th. He was buried in Macon on June 22nd.
Mr. Beasley was for nearly forty years a railway militer clerk, and was one of the best known men in Georgia. He was a graduate of Atlanta University, and had been a consistent member of the Stewart A. M. E. Church for a number of years. He is survived by a loving wife and four children. One of his sons A. S. Beasley, Jr., is a prominent physician of Boston, and another is a nursing a literary course teacher. He was a member of the
An imposition by D. D. T. JABAVU, B. A. (Lond.), Professor of Bantu Languages in the South African Native College, Fort Mate, Alice, Cape Province, South Africa, and author of "The Black-Problem." South Africa is a land that literally bristles with problems, social, racial, political and economic. These are rendered more complex and acute than they are in the United States of America and are more difficult to stand in two antagonistic groups: (a) The peaceful progressive British who cooperate with the advanced Dutch, under the lead of General Smuts, and (b) the rabid racialistic Dutch of the Northern provinces who led by General Kertogt, are determined to adhere to the traditional rule, to reshape the old discredited Bora republics and to impress the black Bora unchecked.
Then there is the overwhelming population of the aboriginal people who are composed of different strains, speaking different languages. The recent Great War, with its consequent depression of trade labor struggles and economic stress, has conspired to throw the country into a melting pot, and nobody can forecast what may be produced by the next decade of two. Ceremony is the country need of real progress is to be made, a large number of moderate-minded men and leaders in each race, men who will work to produce harmony, firstly among the whites alone, secondly among whites and blacks.
Dr. J. E. K. Aggrey.
Now Dr. J. E. Kwegwer Aggrey, a native of the Gold Coast, trained in England and America, has in some respects shown in a series of closely reasoned lectures, (lately delivered in Copen Town, Victoria, East, King William Town, Grahamstown, Port Elizabeth, Queenstown, East London, Durham, Johannesburg, Wloemfontein, Umtata and various other districts of the Transvaal. The Orange Free State, Natal and Transkei more than any other country, has shown that interracialism can be compulsed. As a native I wish to give in a few words an idea of some of the good work done by Dr. Aggrey amuse us in this line.
He was brought to us in the first instance by the notable accident of his being a member of the Education Commission of the American Phils-Stoker Trust whose president is Dr. Jesse Jones. His study condition, as described in the African Association of Africa, of O. Africana, origin he is a man of medium stature of jet black hue, whose conversation is characterized by a simplicity and eloquently agreeably homely for a scholar of his intellectual calibre. We have been highly impressed by his severely practical views as an educationist, unapologetic, unuplift, and the gospel of self-help that he preached with telling confidence and persuasive eloquence. I was privileged to be closely associated with him in part of his travel in my district and was thus enabled to study at first hand his captivating personality and his versatility, addresses each of a distinct stamp to shut the occasion, all strictly practical, never nebulous but always to the point. He excelled in the art of concentrating his thought on one specific topic, finally gathering up his argument, getting to the heart of his interests with Quintin effect. His method of extempore speech, without the slightest note-paper for reference, invested his discourse with a genuineness that astonished his audiences, compelling their admiration. Without doubt he has done more than any other student in the brief space of ten months to create pleasurable constances of the necessity of racial cooperation between white and black.
African Origin an Advantage
His African origin was a real advantage to him for it gave him the ear of whites who otherwise, on account of their dread of Ethiopian doctrines, are always suspicious of American Negroes, whilst it secured him the attention of indigenous Africans who, ever since the reports of Marcos Garvey's Black Star Fleet, have had their eyes turned to Negroes. Negroes came from the preaching of Indian depression as for liberation from the injustice of the white man in whom they are tending to lose faith. He convinced the former in a single address more effectually than any amount of argument has done in a generation, that in the British colonies and America there are Negro intellectuals who have assimilated European culture in its refined form with rational mentality; while he disillusioned with the American republic mirage, acting them in an edifying message of self-help based on Booker Washington's principles and on Christian ethics.
Perhaps his most notable, intellectual feat in his tour was performed in Johannesburg when before the Eclectic Club of the most learned Europeans in the Keef. After his address they questioned him on subjects including Sociology, Economic Psychology, Education and so forth and found him so well informed that he was accorded a spontaneous ovation, being declared by the 'Kand Daily Mail' (18th April), "Probably the most high educated and erudite man of African race in the city." Certainly his talent for logic and mastery of crowd psychology, sharpened by university studies, made him more than a match, in open public debate, for the most hostile audiences of disgruntled opponents that he frequently encountered. His urbanity made him a central figure of admiration with all grades of society.
Of Abatenuous Habits.
His secret lies in his Christianity, in his belief in the efficiency of prayer, in the importance of clean-living—these being points where so many leaders of the church are abstemious, not only with regard to alcohol, but with regard to point of non-smoking, and avoidance of tea, coffee and any other beverage that may have smallest deleterious effect on the human system. He showed a rich fund of humor which both for eruditing exquisite patience conditions in our railways, and public places, and for tolerating irresponsible bookers at meetings as well as insistent interrogations will be extremely useful.
among radicals many black and white converts for cooperation in the solution of the native problem. 2. The organizations of native welfare associations have received needed impetus from his work at Johannesburg, presided over by Professor MacMillan and composed of fifteen European and fifteen native representatives, which will handle all questions affecting natives; and probably he recognized by Government. This is the leader notnotiously negrophobit Transvaal that leaders of the white and black races have been brought to cooperate in an advisory council. Dr. Aggrey has rendered to South Africa an incalculable service for which those of us who desire to secure countryside and economic prosperity cannot find adequate words to thank him.
FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT.
(From Public Ledger, Philadelphia).
Section 2 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States might as well not be part of the fundamental law of the land. It has never been enforced, and today remains a dead letter because the politicians of the party which endorsed that amendment and put it into the Constitution have been enforced in the country—which would inevitably follow. Political expedition has therefore perpetuated a gross wrong for more than half a century. The purpose of the amendment was to insure to the newly enfranchised freedmen in the South their political rights; and the means adopted was the penalization of the States which abridged the right of its citizens to vote ("excep for participation in rebellion or other crime") by reducing the representation which the number of such enfranchised citizens shall bear to the whole number of citizens of voting are.
Had this amendment ever been enforced, the Southern States, where by "grandfather clause" and by more rough-and-ready measures the black citizens have been presented from voting, would have had their voting power in the House of Representatives materially reduced and the anomalies of representation in the States North and South would have been ironed out in great measure. It could no longer have been possible for the vote of a single citizen in the South to have had many times the weight of a citizen in Pennsylvania or New York. So manifestly unjust is a system of apportionment and representation that allows a district where only a handful of voters are allowed to cast a ballot the same voice in Congress as given to another where fifty-five percent are heard at nearly every election. But the party managers on both sides have no liking for the issue and the protests are usually anothered.
At this session a formidable group of Republicans has been formed with the intention of forcing a showdown on this issue; and they do not propose to be sidetracked. It is doubtless true that a serious effort to reduce the Southern representation in Congress in proportion to the number of Negroes who are denied the vote would provoke bitter contemperay and perilous contemperay and perhaps even contemperay. So much which the amendment was originally designed to prevent or to correct. Then, too, it is to be noted that recent congressional elections have revealed an amazing growth in the Republican vote in the South; and party managers may fear that to open the issue of representation now would drive these Republican votes back to the Democratic ranks as the "white man's party." How much force there may be in this contention is indicated in a recent compartmentalized election selected districts in the South, where the Republican vote increased from 38,000 in 1916 to 276,000 in 1920 and where the Democratic majority was reduced from 263,000 to 94,000.
All this may be true, but it only emphasizes the fact that the amendment has been totally ignored for reasons of political expediency, an admitted wrong has been condoned and the Constitution flouted. It will be interesting to see to what lengths the "result" under the leadership of Representative Tinkham, of Massachusetts, will be carried and what arguments, if any, the advocates of expediency will offer in justification of their position.
THE PRESIDENT'S DIFFICULT GAME.
(From Richmond (Va. Times-Depach)
President Harding is engaged in the difficult—not to say impossible—double-heard task of trying to build up his party in the South and at the same time to parcel out such substantial rewards for the fealty of the colored voters that they will have cause for renewed partisan activity in the next campaign. Apparently it is playing both ends against the middle, but to date he has succeeded only in stirring up a political, racial harenet's nest about his own cars, revising the unfortunate race question and altering all that considerable support the South contributed to him in his race for the presidency. His unfortunate awkward endeavors along this particular route have been a major effort of Representative Tinkham and his followers to punish the South for its alleged disfranchisement of the Negroes, are not contributing materially to that approachment with the. South over which he 'has been so valuable.
Use the case of Henry Lincoln Johnson, Georgia's famous "100,000 peach," who achieved notoriety at the time of the G. O. P. National Convention and was rewarded with a place on the national committee, becoming the only dark shadow on its lily-whitness. The "peach" has been bitter fruit in the mouth of the party management, and a bar to party building in the South. Johnson, the colorful brother has been a problem. Mr. Harding believed he could solve it by appointing Johnson to be Recorder of Decals for the District of Columbia, but the last condition seems worse than the first. Georgia in particular and all the other States of the South generally are aroused to a high pitch of indignation and will fight to the last ditch the elevation of a "Negro to a position of authority over all employees, most of whom are women. Nor is it so certain that Johnson ever惧地 the political power even ever possess to resign from the national committee place of which he is inordinately proud. If he refuses—and the party would not dare to out him—the President will have nothing but a political and racial furor and loss of his prestige in the South to show for his plum.
Not current with the o'er own appointment, however, the President is determined, it is said, to go into his own office of Chief Justice and Supreme Court.

their conditions are different; now that the office has grown to immense proportions. Already more than 500 white women employees of the office have petitioned against appointment of A. Negro to a position of chief executive and to fresh embassage is promised.
The record to date of the Harding regime is sufficient evidence that the President, has little sympathy, or at least little faith, in the filly-white movement in his party. Certainly he has not hesitated to kill it by his appointments. This being the attitude of the national advisers to the course of the Virginia Republicans who will meet in convention at Norfolk on July 14. They have directed themselves so far as they dared of the influence of their colored brothers and denied them a voice in the party council, though still not adverse to their votes on election day. To put themselves in a more thorough account with the national leaders, it would seem insulted upon "white men" to attack the white steps and invite the colored Republicans to meet again with them in political equality.

"Broadway Rastus" is back in town, opening at the Lafayette Theatre July 4. The popularity of this musical production was attested by the large audiences at both performances Monday, despite the terrific heat.
Emmett Anthony, cast at Harlem's favorite comedians, Irvin C. Miller, Ernest Whitman, Anita Wilkins, the Leggett Sisters, and a hard-working chorus are pleasingly conspicuous throughout the performance.
The two funniest situations in "Broadway Rastus," the bakery shop and grave yard sizeness, evoke as much merchant as usual.

VERY GRATIFYING
It is gratifying to note that the clergy is beginning to see and understand the mission of the stage. It is not often that words of computation fall up in the ears of the theatre artists as uttered by ministers some gospel. Confession is usually characteristic of their remarks. Unless a title is absolute in itself, there is generally an exception to it. A happy outcome from the custom of the clergy to condemn the thespian, may be found in the groom of the Rev. Dr. Lawton, who so badly conducted the funeral obeuvre, ver the remains of the late fields Kemp at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Sunday, June 20th.
Among other things, he said: "The little attention is often paid to the importance and value of the theatrical profession. If it be the fault and failure it is not different from other professions. The virtues of the Place should not be minimized but encouraged."
As an artist of nearly a quarter century's experience, I on this night agree with the good pastor and I believe that all real artists do. Along with other professions and vocations, that of the stage should be accorded its rightful and proper place. We bring cheer and comfort to an aching heart or throbbing brain sometimes when no other remedy seems able to alleviate these ill. Good and bad seem to make up this old world of ours and if a nefaste character happens to creep into a group of theatrical artists it is (while not polluting such no more than what happens to other organizations, even if you please, the church. Not only do we amuse and entertain, but many charitable acts. St. Peter can put down to our credit
Those with glamour, punch cards, missionary boxes, tickets, and the like, invariably find their way to the stage door and from thence into the hearts and purses of all the performers. The financial response is always generous. The present stage has, like other professions, developed by due process of evolution. A striking example may be seen in Charlie Tolman, who has so recently covered himself with glory. The stage is no longer made up of a class of lead women, classiviles men, crap shooters and degenerates, but, on the contrary, men and women of education and character, thrift and economics. Don't draw your skirts away from the girl upon the stage, when your own might not be immaculately free from sin. Don't feel that when you re presented to a male artist that you will meet a whiskey breath with the introduction. This admiration is not entirely for the clergy, but any and all who do not know the present day artist. Again let me say it is gratifying to hear from such divines as Dr. Lawton.

Considered by Leading Sports Writers as Only Available Opponent for Champion Jack Dempsey.
HARRY WILLS PUTS K.O. ON "BIG BILL" TATE
Harry Wills, the leading contender for the heavyweight championship of the world, knocked out Hall Tate, Jack Dempsey's former sparring partner, in 10 rounds before a crowd of 10,000 fans at the Queensboro A. C. in Long Island City on the evening of July 2nd. Wills had little opportunity to display his skill, for Tate was not at all aggressive, and was ready to quit after the first round. However, the boxing officials, by threatening to not pay him, kept Tate in the ring for several more rounds. During these rounds he was forced three times, and the bell sailed him from being counted out in the second. Although twenty-five pounds heavier than Wills, he proved to be no match for the New Orleans heavyweight.
Several other interesting battles were staged during the evening, the best on which was the six round tight between Kid Bacon and Dan Stewart. Both are test offensive fighters, and although Kid Bacon showed more skill in the first three rounds, the heavier weight and greater strength of Stewart soon made him an advantage over his opponent. The other fights of the evening were between Joe Sullivan and Johnnie Nash, and between Jackie Mason and Joe Fludger. Jimmy Shortell was the reference of the battles.
AT LINCOLN THEATRE
Alice Ferguson scored a great success in "Sandell and Profane Love," the Paramount picture version of Artist Emmet T. Johnson's play which opened at the Lincoln Theatre last night, for a four day run. Miss Ferguson in the star role she created on the stage express even the best traditions of the part. William D. Taylor, the producer, staged the production in a manner worthy of the subject.
Miss Ferguson's "Carlotta" of the screen is undoubtedly greater than the same character of the speaking stage. For the play version could show only scattered snapshots of the strange impulsive girl whose reactions to the love of two different men from one of the most impressive studies in all literature. Conrad Nagel as D'ar presents a masterly portrait of the eccentric pianist, accentuating properly the episodes of his musical triumphs, his passionate romance and his degradation. The support generally was excellent.

202—IF YOU DON'T WANT ME BLUES
THE
Talk Renewed About a Dempsey-Wills Fight
(By W. E. CLARK)
Now that Jack Dempsey has successfully defended his title against the French Champion, fight promoters, sport writers and boxers, as well as the general public, are all interested in who will be given the next opportunity to meet the world's champion. A general discussion has already started about the merits of the various heavyweight boxers. Some claim that Tom Gibbons, Who has won all his recent bouts, should be given a chance at the title. Friends of Bill Brennan claim that Brennan should be given another trial for the title, as he has never been knocked out by anyone but Dempsey, and it took the champion twelve rounds to perform the feat. Others who are seeking a match with the champion include less Willard and Fred Fulton.
It appears that Dempsey wants to fight Willard on Labor Day, and Tex Rickard is reported as already making arrangements for another championship bout on that date. Several writers have again voiced the sentiment that Harry Will should be given a chance for the title. In reply to this sentiment Dempsey states that he will give Wills a chance for the title if the public wants the fight. Whether he means that part of the public that is interested in boxing or the public in general, he does not say. But if he means the boxing fans, there will be no question about a fight between Dempsey and Wills, for they have on numerous occasions expressed a desire to see those fighters meet.
Although the newspaper men as a whole do not like Dempsey, and would like to see him defeated, many of them take the stand that a mixed bout for the champion hip would be against public policy, as it would tend to increase race prejudice. For this reason few of them are advocating a Dempsey Will fight. Hugh Fullerton, a noted authority on sports, who opposed the Carpenter-Dempsey fight on the grounds that it was an uneven match, has stated on several occasions that Wills was a logical contender for the championship, and should be given a chance.
The best opinion observable now as that Dempsey can defeat all of the white contenders, and although they may not get first chance for the title, the public will eventually turn to Wills as the most formidable opponent of Dempsey, which will bring on this fight. How soon this will be remaining to be seen.

Another field of sport has been opened to the colored people of the city in the organization of the New York Colored Golf Club. This club was incorporated on June 11th with the following officers: J. F. Garland, president; John Javis, vice-president; Arthur H. Gibbs, secretary; and Annia M. Garland, treasurer. The president of the club is the colored golf champion of the city, and the entire membership is composed of well known golfers. However, the officers are making arrangements to teach new members the name.
For the present this club will use the public golf courses of the city for their games. These courses are located at Van Cortlandt Park, Pelham Bay Park, and on Jerome avenue, opposite Woodlawn Cemetery. In October the club is planning a national golf tournament, in which it is expected that colored golfers from all over the country will participate. That such a club will be a great addition to the recreation, centers open to colored people of the city, is evident, and although several of the white papers were inclined to ridicule the idea of a colored golf club, others have noted the possibilities of such a club, and seg in it a healthful sport and recreation for its members. Hugh Fuller-ton had the following to say about this club in the Evening Mail.
Thoughtless persons are laughing over the idea that the Negroes of New York have organized a golf club. To

Mindspoken and his family. Dr. Cole spoke on the superior ability and contours of man to that of the rest of creation, from John 10:17 and 18: "I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me but I lay it down of myself. I have the power to lay it down, and I have the power to take it" Dr. Cole discussed his subject thoroughly, with intelligence and power.

the usual large attendance at Fleet
Street Church on Sunday, July 3rd, and

pointing his audience in the presenta-
tion. He was the first to attend the
Race. The back ground had its set-
ting in the days of St. Paul and the
Olympic races, and was eloquently
portrayed to fit the needs of modern times,
as he emphasized the four principal
traits necessary for the Christian race,
viz. "Vigilance," "Singlenindedness," "Se-
paration," and "Discipline." Several
people were baptized and persons were received in the church
Bishop Lee and Bishop Wallace
wrapped with pastor and congregation.

fulness of Abraham. The offering was

The program rendered by the Sunday School at 1 p.m. under the superintendency of Frank M. Stuart, assisted by committee composed of Mrs. Carrie L. Jones, Miss Magaret Tyler and Miss Dorothy Abrams, was a worthy sequel to the sermon.

Women, the makers of Men, were the students; a night was tried of ages. Several persons united with the church: The day's offering totalled $100.
