LOTT CAREY CONVYTION IN SESSION AT NEWARK (By N. B. Dodson). Newark, N. J.—With a foreign force of forty Missionaries, more than two thousand delegates and visitors in attendance, and $50,000 raised for the fiscal year, the Lott Carey Baptist Foreign Mission Convention held its annual meeting at the Bethany Baptist Church in this city from Wednesday, August 31 to Saturday, September 3rd. The sessions were presided over by the Rev. C. S. Brown, president. The addresses of welcome were delivered by the Rev. John C. Love, pastor of the Union Baptist Church at Mountair, and president of the New Jersey State Convention, Mr. Simmons of Bethany Church. The responses were by Revs. Holloman and Long. The annual sermon was delivered by the Rev W. Hayes, pastor of the Mount Olivet Baptist Church, New York City. The sessions Thursday were given prior to the session, except at night, when only a small audience was present. NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 10, 1921. Half Million Brick Made By Students During Vacation President Hill Directs Manufacture of Material For Erection of Much-Needed Building at Morristown College (By Albom L. Holsey.) Hot Springs, Ark.—A sixty percent increase in receipts in spite of the depressed financial condition was shown in the report of John L. Webb, secretary-treasurer of the Woodmen of Union at its annual supreme session which opened here Wednesday, August 31. Several special trains and tracars brought upwards of a thou-and-celebrates and visitors to the city and the several sessions which were held at the Visitors Chapel A. M. E. Church were largely attended. Mayor H. A. Jones of Hot Springs delivered a strong address of welcome. His statement that it was his purpose to be mayor of all the people was amply being out in the fine spirit of good will and understanding between the two races in this city. Hot Springs is an ideal convention city. Rev. L. Lunon of Forrest City, Ark. responded to the mayor's address and won for himself unstinted praise for his work frank and helpful words. The Rapid Growth Revealed. The "high spots" of the session included the magnificent address by Dr. E. A. Kendall, supreme president, and the splendid report of the supreme custodian John L. Webb. The Woodmen of Union operate in eleven states and during the fiscal year just closed collected from all sources $284,173.20 an increase of $10,000 over the previous year. Mr. Webb's report also included reference to the $100,000 bath house which is nearing completion and the material for which, has been paid for. When it was shown, this and other real estate transactions had been done without a single assessment of the members there could be heard on all sides words of warmest praise for the highly efficient leadership of the supreme custodian. Such an achievement is unexamined in fraternal circles. Powerful Influence For Good. In his annual address, Mr. Webb emphasized the importance of thrift, of better race relations and the necessity for better living and educational conditions in the rural districts. Mr. Webb told of having visited the closing exercises of a school some weeks ago where the graduating class of some twenty members had only three boys, "That do dition," he said, is entirely too prevalent and it shows a deplorable lack of attention to the education of our boys. Negro enterprises are springing up every day and there is a constant and insistent demand for competent, well trained young men. You mothers and fathers owe it to yourselves, to your children and to your race to insist upon your boys attending school and completing their education. William H. Holtzclaw, founder and principal of the Utica Institute in Mississippi who was a schoolmate of John L. Webb at Tuskegee Institute delivered a stirring address on race pride at as to Half Million Brick Students Dur President Hill Directs Material For Erection of Building at Morris (Special to THE NEW YORK AGE) Morristown, Tenn.—Brick-making as a means of spending a summer vacation was adopted by President Judson S. Hill of Morristown Normal and Industrial College, Morristown, Tenn., in company with a band of students of that institution Morristown College is a thriving institution for Negro education with a history extending back to 1881, when it was founded by its present president. It is controlled by, the Board of Education for Negroes of the M. E. Church. The original building had been an old slave market, and several of its early pupils, whose ages range from seven to seventy, had been sold in it in their younger days. One of these men afterwards became a member of the faculty and another a presiding elder in the local Methodist church. Brick Clay on College Land. There are nine buildings with a value of over $300,000 and with no debt attached. This condition is the efforts of Pres. Hill, who has made many friends for the Institution which has received many substantial legacies. During the years of progress the president has had to act as carpenter, master, mason, as well as teacher, many a time before he has had to work on the construction of a new building. Tuskegee's 41st Session to Open on Tuesday, Sept. 13th Principal Moton Reports Record--Breaking Enrollment, With New Buildings Ready to Afford Enlarged Activity 1 the Thursday signing session the Thursday evening session. The influence of the life of Booker T. Washington upon this organization was seen in the frequent references to him and his work. The brief mention of his name by the several speakers, the public, and the reception brought forth applause from the audience as well as many earnest and sincere tributes. The Supreme lodge session took official cognizance of the Booker T. Washington monument which will take place at Tuskegee Institute April 5th 1921 and elected the supreme president, Dr. Kendall and the custodian, Mr. Webb, as the official representatives of the order. Webba' Fine Leadership. John L. Webb graduated from Tuskegee Institute, where he learned the carpenter's trade and later did contracting and building, both in Memphis and Yazoo City. Miss. The Woodmen of Union, was founded at Natcher, Miss. and for a number of years operated in only one state. When Mr. Webb was persuaded to accept the custodianship of the order in 1910 the monthly receipts were $82. "It is nothing short of a miracle what this man has accomplished in these five years," is the general expression heard around these parts when the name of "Webb" is mentioned. They say "Webb did it" and Mr. Webb says, "Whatever success I have had I owe to Bocker T. Washington." Mr. Webb recently pledged $1,000 to the Tuskegee Loyalty Fund. Tuskegee's 41st Open on Tues Principal Moton Replying Enrollment, W Ready to Afford 1 (Special to The New York Age) Tuskegee Institute, Ala.--September 13th, will mark the opening of the forty-first scholastic year of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. Dr Robert R. Moton, principal, announced today that present indications augur a record-breaking enrollment for the ensuing year. More than two thousand students have matriculated, many of whom have already arrived, representing approximately every section of this country and also other countries. The Institute opens this year under many encouraging conditions. The new boys' trade buildings, which were dedicated April 11th, are now in shape as to equipment.

With a score or more of loyal students, President Hill, who is white, set to work. They dig into the bed of brick-making clay on the college land and transported material to the site of the kilns, which are being built. There is wood enough on the place to furnish fuel for burning the brick and also the limestone at hand into time for the mortar. There is timber for lumber on a new piece of agricultural demonstration work by the college Department of Agriculture. A quarter of a million feet of lumber have already been sawed from this land and drawn to the campus, where the work is to be done. Overcoming Obstacles. The new building will be put up when the funds become available, but President Hill and the students have faith in the future of Morristown College. Other buildings have a similar history to the one for which the material is now being prepared. According to officials of the Methodist Episcopal Church, under whose sponsorship the college operates, no obstacles seem, big enough to lessen the enthusiasm or thwart the growth of Morristown Normal and Industrial College. They pay high tributes to the loyalty of the colored teachers and students in the building of the institution, not only to gratitude to actual construction of men and women, but to Best Edited—Best Known.

J. - In the light of recent developments, the question is being asked are Newark city officials members of the Ku Klux Klan or in sympathy with it or controlled by it? Director of Public Safety Brennan directed the police to prevent Jack Johnson, the Negro pugilist, from delivering an address scheduled at the 1st regiment armory on Labor Day under auspices of the Rosevelt Memorial Temple, the Rev. S. L. Corrothers, pastor. An audience of two thousand had assembled to hear him. Johnson spoke two weeks ago to members of Rey Corrothers' church and his speech was followed by the reported organization in Newark and other parts of New Jersey of branches of the Klan. During the past week or so the leading Negro citizens have been in receipt of communications alleged to have been been written by members of the Ku Klux Klan, warning them against opposing the Klan's activities, threatening severe reprisals at it, failed to desist Colored women and girls have been in a state of semiparity, and they have been warned to remain indoors at night. Commissioner Brisman gave no reason for his order presenting Johnson from speaking, but it is believed by some that it was caused by influences emanating from the "impossible empire" of the K. K. K. No attempt was made to combat the Commissioner's order. Instances of the Klan's disregard of law and justice is found in reports from other sections of the country. In Texas Negroes have been forced to pick cotton at greatly reduced wages, following a warning from the Klan, and at Key West, Bla. a colored man, named Higgs, accused of talking too boldly against the Klan, was taken out and his body covered with creepers. He had to be taken to the hospital at St. Augustine for treatment. states the instruction and also offers opportunity for instruction in the mechanical trades to a larger number of students, as well as a more thorough course in the use of modern machines and other apparatus. The opening of James Hall, the new dormitory for girls, has made it possible to accept a larger number of the many girls applying for entrance and at the same time will alleviate to a great extent, the somewhat congested condition of the dormitories. In addition to the aforementioned favorable conditions, a regular organized graduate course in the mechanical industries is now offered, as well as a similar course in agriculture. All of the departments and divisions have been reorganized as to course and instruction. MADE AIRPLANE TRIP TO BUSINESS LEAGUE (Special to The New York Age) Atlanta, Ga.—In order to attend the last days session of the National Negro Business League and speak on the program, Carrollold Hardwick, a successful restaurant keeper of Cleveland, Tenn., chartered an airship, successfully making the flight from his home to Atlanta and return. Mr. Hardwick, who is said to be worth over $50,000, was on the program to speak at Friday's foremost session on the restaurant business. He had planned to make the trip by automobile, but became suddenly ill Wednesday. The following day it tained so hard it would have been a difficult matter to have reached Atlanta by automobile. will Wed tained a difficult alma by rode in- offering up for a he spi- said he to Atlanta you up, agreement lock the shortly reading with where moon Mr. place of fessional makesmen, who net the Now the Negro has becom- ant anti-Jew, anti-Catholic, anti-ali- through the North and West a How has it managed to spi- First, by appeals to local Pacific Coast it has beckoned the yellow man is plotting to the white man.

When he approached Hardwick the latter said he would pay $50 to be taken to Atlanta and back. "Make it $100 and I'll take you up," replied the aviator, and an agreement was promptly reached. Friday morning 7:30 o'clock the party started for Atlanta, and shortly before noon Hardwick was reading his paper at Big Bethel Church, where the league met. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon Mr. Hardwick was back at his place of business. The distance between Cleveland, Temm, and Atlanta is 159 miles. After Months of Inquiry Within and Without the Organ The New York World Publishes Story read of Ku Klux Klan Into Every State in Union But Montana, Utah and New Hampshire The Age, By Special Arrangement Will Reproduce The World Stories With a Reputed Membership of More Than 500,000, The Investigation Shows That It Is Growing More Than Twice as Rapidly in the North and West as It is In the South Selling of Membership by Salesmen Whose First Objective is to Enroll High City Officials, Judges and Policemen, Following With Officers on Army and Navy Reserve Lists Klan Opposes Catholic, Jaws, and Allians, As Well As Negroes WHAT IS THE KU KLUX KLAN? How has it grown from a nucleus of thirty-four charter members to a membership of more than 500,000 within five years? How have its "domains" and "realms" and "Klans" been extended until they embrace every State in the Union but Montana, Utah and New Hampshire? What are the possibilities of an order that preaches racial and religious hatred of the Jew and the Roman Catholic, of the Negro and the foreign-born citizen? What are the possibilities of a secret organization that practices censorship of private conduct behind the midnight anonymity of mask and robe and with the weapons of whips and tar and feathers? What ought to be done about an order whose members are not initiated but "naturalized," whose oath binds them to obedience to an "Emperor" chosen for life? What ought to be done about an organization with such objects when the salesmen of memberships in it work first among officers of the courts and Police Departments, following then with the officers of the reserve lists of the military and naval forces? At the end, of months of inquiry throughout the United States and in the performance of what it sincerely believes to be a public service. The World begins the publication of a series of articles in which answers to these questions will be offered, set out against the vivid background of as extraordinary a movement as is to be found in recent history. The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, Inc., was organized October 26, 1915, in Atlanta, Ga., by William Joseph Simmons, who at one period of his life had been an itinerant Methodist exhorter; at another, professor of Southern history at Lanier University, a small, newly organized institution; in Atlanta; and at still another a solicitor of members for the Woodmen of the World. On that date Simmons and thirty-three of his friends signed a petition for a charter as a standard fraternal secret order, which charter was issued by the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia, on July 1, 1916. Now the organization is active in every State of the Union but three. It has a membership of more than 500,000—of 650,000, according to the boasts of its leaders. When it was organized as founders claimed it was a revival or legitimate rebirth of the old Ku Klux Klan of the reconstruction period in the South, and, like the original Klan, its slogan was "White Supremacy." It was directed against the Negro. Now the Negro has become a side issue with it. Today it is primarily anti-few, anti-Catholic, anti-altism, and it is spreading more than twice as fast through the North and West as it is growing in the South. How has it managed to spread out so widely and rapidly? First, by appeals to local or sectional prejudices and hatreds. On the Pacific Coast it has beckoned to Japophobies and whispered in their ears that the yellow man is plotting to incite the black man in America to rise against the white man. In the cities of the Central West it has pretended to assume itself to stamping out radicalism. On the Atlantic Coast it has preached that an alien-born man or woman, even though naturalized, has no place in America. Everywhere it has hammed Jews from membership and made anti-Semitism one of its many missions. Everywhere, also, no less positively but not so frankly, it has barred and attacked Roman Catholics. Wherever a prospective member lives he has been promised that his pet aversion will be made an object of Klan action. Second, it owes its growth to the employment of a large number of professional salesmen, who net the country in an up-to-date sales organization and pledge membership on a basis of $4 for each member taken into the Klan. These paid organizers, or Kleagles, are at work this summer on a membership drive directed from Atlanta and from the various cities where the State Department, or King Kleagles, have set up their headquarters. Negro Now a Side Issue. WHEN YOU SEE IT IN The Age YOU CAN DEPEND UPON IT News That Is Informing. PRICE, FIVE CENTS to his King Kleagle, who pockets another $1. The remaining $5 vanishes into the "infernal" treasury of the order. Furthermore, the Klan itself owns the company manufacturing the regalia of cotton robe and hooded cap, which is sold to members for $6.50 and costs $1.25 to make. The whole "propagation" department is in the hands of professional drive leaders, whose sole interest in Ku Kluxism is in the "split" just outlined. In the last five years membership "donations" and sales of regalia have yielded at least $5,000,000—probably a considerably greater sum. Ku Klux Klan inside has been a paying enterprise and its lucrative possibilities have recently been increased by the decision to admit women as well as men to membership. The sisters can now come on in with the brothers—at only $10 per come-on. The original Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, Inc., modestly begun five years ago, has become a vast enterprise, doing a thriving business in the systematic sale of race hatred, religious bigotry and "100 per cent." anti-Americanism. It has become and calls itself an "Invisible Empire," ruled by an "Emperor" and "Imperial, Wizard," Col. William Joseph Simmons, who is no more legitimately a Colonel than he is an Emperor or a wizard. Closely associated with him and making up the "Big Three" which controls its affairs, are Edward Young Clarke, "Imperial Kleagle," a professional publicity man and drive promoter, and Clarke's business partner in the management of the Southern Publicity Association of Atlanta, Mrs. Elizabeth Tyler, who is the principal stockholder in the Searchlight, a newspaper published in Atlanta as the organ of the government.

Efforts are being made to spread the poison of Ku Kluxian in the army and navy. For months its membership pleddlers have been sending their anonymous circulars to officers on the reserve list of the military and naval forces. Also to reach the hundreds who flew during the war and the thousands then awakened to active interest in aviation, the promoters of the Klan last spring formed in Atlanta an adjunct order headed by "Homeroft" Simmons and known as "The Invisible Planet, Knight of the Air." Membership in this was open to men, women and children, and Jews and Catholics were not barred. The price of admission was $10. Only Klansmen could be officers in the Knights of the Air, and every white, Gentile, Protestant, native born member was a handpicked prospect for Klan-manship and another $10 donation. The Khan organizers go out instructed by headquarters to make their best drive to secure city, town and village authorities as members, and to center their efforts also on judges of local and effent courts and the police forces. In the weekly news letters sent out from Atlanta by Imperial Kleagle Clark for circulation among Klanmen the success achieved along three lines is boasted as the reason why in so many places the Khan has sentured to work openly without fear or interference and as an incentive for pushing forward the work of setting up an invisible Khan-controlled super-government throughout the country. What are the possibilities of such an organization as the Ku Klux Klan? A partial answer to this question lies in an analyzed list prepared by The World of outrages committed by groups of maked men wearing white robes and heels and announcing themselves to their victims as Ku Klux Klanism. A large majority of these attacks on individuals have involved matters of behavior along the lines of personal morality, have flagrantly violated the Bill of Rights implanted in the Federal Constitution and the charter law of every State in the Union and have involved an assumption of the Klan's authority to impose moral coercion on communities and citizens, summarily punish any "offenses," and set up and enforce its standards covering every incident of private life. To sum up this aspect of the case, the words of a man who knows CATARRH OF THE BLADDER EASY TO USE SANTAL MIDY SAFE AND SUCCESSFULL Mad the Klan intimately from the inside may be used. He says: "It would be impossible to imagine an attitude more essentially lawless. Ku Kluxism as conceived, incorporated, propagated and practised has become a menace to the peace and security of every section of the United States. Its evil and vicious possibilities are bountiful. It is nothing more or less than a throw-back to the centuries when terror, instead of law and justice, ruled and regulated the lives of men." For months The World has been engaged in a Nation-wide investigation of the Ku Klux Klan and has uncovered a vast mass of evidence. It has learned what the Klan is, down to the last fatuous bit of verbiage tucked away in the secret ritual, what Ku Kluxism means, down to the last whispered words of its insulting propaganda, and what the propagators of Ku Kluxism, Inc., have done and have set themselves to do. The information thus gathered The World now proposes to make public property in a series of articles, of which this is the first. This series will constitute a complete exposure of the organization What Investigation Shows. Specifically, here are some of the things which The World will lay before its readers in forthcoming articles: Proof of the Klan's anti-Jew and anti-Catholic tenets, with definite instances of their application; Basic extracts from the "Kloran," the ritual of the first degree of the order and most secret of its documents; The names and headquarters throughout the country of the Kleagles, the organizers who paddle memberships at $4 a head; Photographs of pages and passages from the "Kloran," of initiation ceremonies in widely separated parts of the country of "Imperial" Simmons, of parades of Klanmen, of their chief officers of advertisements for salesmen and members, of letters of bake and Navy-Club in New York City and a mass of other photographic evidence; The analyzed lists of outrages by the Klan or its various State and nation taken by various State and municipal authorities against the further spread of Ku KluxKlan; A blistering letter of withdrawal from one of the most active Kleagles in the South, aacraigning the "Imperial Wizard" for the cell and impatiotic things done in the name of the Klazn: Details of the efforts to widen the held of exploitation by organising the "Invisible Planet, Knights of the Ait: Facts about efforts being made just now to "call off" the newspapers of the country by launching a $100,000 advertising campaign.

To gather, verify and fit together all this information concerning a movement which specializes in mystery and secrecy has been a work of months, carried on by the most highly qualified members of this paper's staff, assisted by local representatives of The World in more than forty cities in a score of different States. Insiders Aid Expose. Eyen then it could not have been successful, as it has been, without the cooperation and aid of certain persons who had knowledge of the actual workings of the order such as only insiders have an opportunity to obtain. They were or had been Klausmen who joined in good faith, and were compelled to withdraw because of the shocking realities and potentialities which were revealed to them after they passed inside the "portals" of the "Invisible Empire." Chief among these individuals was a man of well-established antecedents who joined the order and was induced to take an active part in its propagation work. For several months he served as an officer and organizer of the Klan. Then he saw the light and in a letter addressed to "Imperial Wizard" Simmons withdrew from his office and from the organization, repudiating on the grounds of patriotism, decency and duty his Ku Klux oath and all, the obligations which he had unwittingly assumed. That letter, coming from a well-informed insider, is one of the most complete and severe indictments of Ku Kluxian which could well be drawn. SUPREME LODGE K. P. ENDS 17TH SESSION SUPREME LODGE K. P.

MITCHELL 'AFRICA FOR AFRICANS' IS NOT NEGRO SLOGAN Paris France-France's two Negro deputies do not agree with Marcus Garvey's contention of "Africa for Africans." Diagne, the colored deputy from Senegal, and Candace, from Guadeloupe, today declared: "We do not hate the white race. What we seek is conciliation and collaboration." "Our evolution and development depends upon relations with the white race. We would lose everything if we were isolated in Africa." "If I were asked to choose," Deputy Condace said, "I would reply, I am black, but I am French first." Candace attacked America's attitude toward the colored races, and ex-President Wilson's attitude in refusing them racial equality. Bellegarde, the Haitian Minister, who is here for the Negro congress, corollated the attitude of the colored deputies. LEXINGTON, VA Lexington, Va.-Rev. R. W. Stenette attended the annual conference.

You know we wish to do things worth while, "Gay" is our president, "Buster" our secretary and "Snookums" our treasurer. We meet every Monday night. You ought to meet "Bright Eyes," girls; she really makes everybody starte, "Billy Boy" is something like you "Bobbie," rather prim and sedate; dont-cha know? "Wes," we haven't soul like you in our club. I am exactly your opposite. I am so thin that I look miserable. People really feel sorry for me and tell me that I am getting stouter, and when I weigh-lo and behold! I have lost. How can people be so cruel! "Kittens" is very sweet, but she looks more like a "Tabby cat." Won't she boil when she reads this. "Moonbeams" is a dreary-eyed, cute little witch—we just love her. When are we going to hear from "Happiness," "Numbers," "Melrom," "Brownie, No. 2," and the others? We miss you so much when we don't be from you. How much you could be, a crowd of people wherever you are and organize an enjoy the wonderful times we are having in New York and New Jersey.

The demoralization consequent upon maintaining in office an executive secretary whose usefulness was ended by his own perverse persistence in a course of conduct that outraged decent public opinion, is illustrated in the case of the West 135th Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A. An employee who recently resigned from the service, stated that the secretary spent most of the time for which he is being paid to do Christian work, in petty bickerings and spite work to those who are so unfortunate as to incur his displeasure. This tendency on the part of the secretary is not to be wondered at, when he contemplates the damage that his misconduct has wrought on the moral and material condition of the institution committed to his care. Burdened with a deficiency of some $3,000 in its income and the necessity of borrowing, $4,000 to keep things going, the cost of training Mr. Taylor has not been light. More costly than this material loss, has been the loss of public confidence in the aims and purpose of those who are responsible for keeping Mr. Taylor in a position, where he has proved a positive detriment to the work. Example has always had a greater influence than precept. It is useless to progress great moral principles and the building up of moral character, when these elements are lacking on the part of the teacher. In order that the local brach should do the work for which it was originally established, it is necessary that the head should command puffish confidence and that the local management should be represented in the central board by men of the race, who can speak with authority on the needs of the race in such work. Until such a change is made in the direction of affairs, the "Y" work in Harlem will continue to deteriorate, both in quantity and quality. HIGH RENTS IN HARLEM No section of the city has suffered more from the repeated raising of rents than Halem, and this rent exhortation has fallen with the greatest force on the colored tenants. Restricted in their choice of residential territory, they had no option but to pay the increases as they came and merit the extra outgo by cutting off some, other expenditure or taking in another roomer, if space permitted. In some cases the plea of the land lords and agents as to increased taxes, cost of repairs and general upkeep, constituted a reasonable argument justifying the increased rental. But, in most instances the increase in rent, repeated every few months, far exceeded the increased expenses on the property. Often where the property had changed hands, from one owner to another, the rent were raised to an extortionate degree, in order to provide profits for each separate owner. This is the sort of profiteering that the rent laws passed at the last session of the legislature were devised to prevent, while the Mayor's Committee on Rent Profiteering aided in their enforcement. A great many tenants, either through fear of losing what accommodations they had or distrust of the law and the courts, failed to avail themselves of the relief afforded by this legislation. They grumbled at each increase, but met it by raising the money in one way or another. The recent decision of the Appellate Tern of the Supreme Court in Brooklyn has given another twist to this rent problem. While seemingly favoring the landlords to the extent of allowing them 10 per cent, return on the value of their property as a reasonable rent, after adding the expense of operation, it should get a check to extortionate profiteering. Those landlords and agents who have boosted their rents 100 per cent, and more in the past year or so have no doubt exceeded this limit. They should recognize that their demands are more than traffic can bear and bring their schedules down to within the limit of the law. The secrecy of employment and cutting down of the scale of wages have made it harder and harder for the tenants to meet the high rents still prevailing. It would be the better part of wisdom for our real estate owners and agents to take steps to meet this changed condition by reducing rents in a reasonable degree. By such a policy they would not only retain the good will of their tenants against a day when housing but they may keep the return from their inestments within the limit allowed by the latest legal decision. In other words, do not kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. LAWYERS AND LYNCHING. The American Ilar Association, comprising some of the leading lawyers of the United States, which met recently at Cincinnati, devoted one of its sessions to the subject of law enforcement. Three addresses were delivered on this subject, by former Governor, Whitman of New York, Luther Z. Rosser of Atlanta and Judge Kavanaugh of Chicago. Gov. Whitman sought to minimize the part played by public sentiment in affecting the enforcement of the law, and placed the responsibility for such enforcement on the executive power. He declared: "There is no such thing as unenforceable law. You cannot say a law is a dead letter because of public sentiment, because it is impossible to accurately determine public opinion. The mere fact that a law is irksome does not prove that it is inconsistent with public welfare. Law enforcement is a matter of executive desire and determination." This may be true enough as a matter of academic discussion, but the governor was practising law in the courts of South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi, or any other of the Southern States; he would find the facts vastly different when the rights of a black man before the law were concerned. Social and business ostracism would eb his portion if he dared advocate those rights, and but few judges or juries would decide in his favor. Mob law, and particularly lynching, were denounced as "poisonous and pestilential" by Mr. Rosser. Declaring that the annihilation of these was the "only guarantee of national safety," he continued: "The essence of mob law is swift action without reflection. I inevitably not all those lynched are guilty. America in all its history has been the breeding ground for mobs, racial, political, labor, religious. Most of our citizenship have been gathered from the four corners of the earth. They have fled oppression and class obstruction to the asylum for the governmental aggrandement heretofore. He has very privileges of the thoughtles. American tend to beguile him to lynching and he is encouraged by political heresies. He forgets in his wild real and frenzy that when he destroys every boon and compass of the past there is nothing left but the storm and the night." As might have been expected, an effort was made to palliate the criminal record of the South in lynching by the threadbare assertion that the atrocious crime of rape justified the action of the mob. This charge has been so thoroughly exploded by the statistics furnished from Southern sources, that it was an insult to the intelligence of the average lawyer to make such a plea before such an audience. It is only in a minority of cases of lynching that offences against women are alleged as the cause, and it is more rarely that the charge is proved. In several instances the innocence of the victims of the mob has been established by white testimonies. The lynching of Negroes in the South has no justification. It is based upon the primal elements of envy, hatred and malice, abetted by bestial brutality and cruelty incarnate. It is the last argument to assert "white supremacy." NOVEL POLITICAL STRATEGY. NOVEL POLITICAL STRATEGY. The political experiment now in process of trying out in Virginia is regarded in different lights as viewed from different angles. The process of eliminating the Negro from the so-called Republican party of the State and bleaching the residuum to a true "lily-white" hue has aroused natural resentment among Negro Republicans. These latter have repudiated the nomination made for Governor "by the "Lilywhites" and will hold a separate convention and name a ticket of their own. An interesting sidelight was thrown upon the "Lilywhite" movement in a recent editorial published in the New York Times, which regarded it as an effort to change the political strategy and strike out in new paths. The reasons advanced for this are: The Republican movement starts out in the name of the State, pure and simple. National questions are not mentioned. The charge is that Virginia has been for years badly governed. The Democratic machine has been able to entrench itself in power largely appearing in race pudding, and has hardly deterred. The vital interests of the State have been more and more neglected, despite the increasing army of officeholders. The old cry attaching to any anti-Democratic movement, that it meant "Negro domination" was evaded by eliminating that element in advance, or at least that is the hope of the "Lilywhites." They profess, according to the Times article, to be desirous of securing to the Negroes their political rights, but do not wish the colored voters to attach themselves to any one party. If they carry the election the "Lilywhites" will appoint no Negroes to office. Whether there exists sufficient dissatisfaction among the white voters of Virginia to cause any considerable number of them to desert the Democratic party remains to be seen. On this point the "Lilywhites" have made their gamble and by it they rise or fall. With the prospect of a Negro ticket in the field to make it a triangular contest, the regular Democrats look to have the advantage. The Times thinks that the Vikings plan is meeting with favor in other Southern seas and that every time THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1921. The Republican National Committee, at its meeting held last May, in Washington, adopted a resolution that affected all members of that party, especially those in the South. It provided that hereafter no individual will be permitted to participate in the deliberations of a precinct, county, district, state or national Republican convention, unless that individual is a qualified voter under the laws of the state in which he claims a residence. The Negro voters of the South are most vitally affected by this resolution, for they are the ones whose franchise is generally denied by the local authorities and who are frequently prevented from registering as voters. Even when the opportunity is open for many of them to qualify under the various state laws, a large percentage do not make the attempt. Continued denial and suppression of franchise, rights have resulted in a spirit of indifference and lethargy in seeking the opportunity to vote. The prerequisite to voting in most of the Southern States is the payment of a poll tax on or before the first day of February and a trip to the county clerk's office for registration. In many of the larger cities no serious obstacles are thrown in the way of those members of the race, who seek to qualify as voters in this way. In fact, in many of the bond elections in such cities as Atlanta and Savannah, the participation of men and women of the race has been invited. If the Negroes of the South are determined to assert and maintain their status as citizens entitled to the franchise and to equal participation in the councils of the Republican party, they must take the proper steps to qualify as voters. Let them pay their poll taxes in due season and present themselves before the proper official for registration. It is only by complying with the requirements of the law, that they will be in a position to claim their rights as voters and as fullfledged Republicans. The fitness of the race for political recognition has been questioned. It is up to every member of the race to prove that fitness by meeting the test prescribed by the laws of the state and the laws of the party organization. Failure to do this will result in the elimination of the Negro as a political factor. EXERCISE OF RIGHTS Exercise is necessary to the system, just as it is to the rule. Neglect to use a faculty or an both through decay or rust. The leges and rights of citizenship. It should be made to feel that it is a need for this sort of awakening all over the country, but or political situation presented in it. In the Nineteenth Assembly are about 13,000 voters, who are and 5,000 colored. According to there should be at least double. The question is therefore, why residents who are qualified to vote and cast their ballots. The growth of the community to a large degree by immigration suggested that many of these men which qualified them as voters the non-use of the franchise, that of it, even when the opportunity for it gives support to the assertion to the franchise that he will not in his way. Another reason advanced for it is the feeling, expressed by some, is to be gained by them personal a view to take of the duties of means by which a man or woman kind of government he wants, is affected by the laws and taxes citizens are dependent upon the branches of the public service for schools, water and street light. The taxes have a direct bearing on it. It is therefore the part of will exercise their right and privileges. Let them enroll as members of the out their ideas of government. The choice of candidates to go on the register as voters, so that they re day. By so doing they will exercise rights and command the respect applies to the women as well as to the failure to exercise a right with that right. necessary to the full development of it is to the running of any faculty or an engine leads to fire or rust. The same thing is to citizenship. Those qualified feel that it is a duty as well as part of awakening among the nation, but or the present we presented in Harlem. Ninth Assembly district it is voters, who are divided as for. According to the population at least double this number, therefore, why do not these qualified to vote, come out of votes. If the community in Harlem by immigration from the State of these newcomers, even them as voters, have become the franchise, that they fail to the opportunity is open. This is to the assertion that the Nepal he will not vote when no one advanced for this indifference passed by some members of the them personally in voting, the duties of citizenship. The woman or woman can voice and but he wants. Every resident laws and taxes governing that sent upon the police for public service for various needs and street lighting and public direct hearing upon the rentals the part of wisdom for the public and privileges as voters to the members of the political party government. This will give the ties to go on the party ticket so that they may cast their they will exercise the full men and the respect due to all goen as well as the men. Exercise a right is the first su Exercise is necessary to the full development of the physical system, just as it is to the running of any kind of machinery. Neglect to use a faculty or an engine leads to the weakening of both through decay or rust. The same thing is true of the privileges and rights of citizenship. Those qualified to use the franchise should be made to feel that it is a duty as well as a privilege. There is need for this sort of awakening among the members of the race all over the country, but for the present we will consider the political situation presented in Harlem. In the Nineteenth Assembly district it is claimed that there are about 13,000 voters, who are divided as follows, 8,000 white and 5,000 colored. According to the population of the district, there should be at least double this number of colored voters. The question is therefore, why do not these other 5,000 colored residents who are qualified to vote, come out and enroll, register and cast their ballots. The growth of the community in Harlem has been assisted to a large degree by immigration from the South. It has been suggested that many of these newcomers, even after a residence which qualified them as voters, have become so habituated to the non-use of the franchise, that they fail to avail themselves of it, even when the opportunity is open. This is a wrong policy, for it gives support to the assertion that the Negro is so indifferent to the franchise that he will not vote when no obstructions are put in his way. Another reason advanced for this indicence to political matters is the feeling, expressed by some members of the race, that nothing is to be gained by them personally in voting. This is too narrow a view to take of the duties of citizenship. The ballot is the only means by which a man or woman can voice an opinion as to the kind of government he wants. Every resident in a community is affected by the laws and taxes governing that community. The citizens are dependent upon the police for protection, upon other branches of the public service for various necessities in the way of schools, water and street lighting and public improvements. The taxes have a direct bearing upon the rents paid. It is therefore the part of wisdom for the people of Harlem to exercise their right and privileges as voters to the fullest capacity. Let them enroll as members of the political party that best carries out their ideas of government. This will give them a voice in the choice of candidates to go on the party ticket. Then let them register as voters, so that they may cast their ballots on election day. By so doing they will exercise the full measure of their civil rights and command the respect due to all good citizens. This applies to the women as well as the men. The failure to exercise a right is the first step toward parting with that right. it. It admits that the experiment is interesting and considers "its avowed aims undeniably worthy." But it is pessimistic as to the success of the movement on the ground that: York's children for the sake of a disgraceful quarrel in the Board of Estimate. "We need 100 new buildings, but Hylan has built just two. It is bad city business to be thinking about Unless old prejudices have lost their force and Southern Democratic politicians their cunning, the cry of social equality for the Negro and endangered race purity for the white will long be raised in the South with great political effect. Whitewashing the elephant's hide evidently does not change the color of his skin, in the eyes of a Democratic observer. CURRAN AND THE SCHOOLS. It is refreshing to find one of the candidates for the mayoralty devoting his attention to the crying needs of, more schools for the city of New York. The candidate who recognised the fact there are not enough schools for the children was Borough President Henry H. Curran. At a meeting held in Brooklyn last week he said: "I have not heard a word in this primary campaign so far about schools. You and I know that we need more schools, and then more. We have seen four years of baiting of the Board of Education by the Board of Estimate. Instead of building schools, they have been busy building bonfires under the Board of Education. "Where does this get us?" I'll tell you. How many new schools do you think we have ready today as a product of the present city administration? The number is two—just two. There is a little addition in The Browns, and there is a new school of Fort Worth, and that is all you care of Middletown on our behalf." the full development of the physical running of any kind of machinery in engine leads to the weakening of the same thing is true of the private. Those qualified to use the franchise a duty as well as a privilege. They sing among the members of the race at the present we will consider the Harlem. Only district it is claimed that there are divided as follows. 8,000 white to the population of the district; this number of colored voters do not these other 5,000 colored vote, come out and enroll, register. Unity in Harlem has been assisted from the South. It has been newcomers, even after a residence, have become so habituated to that they fail to avail themselves is open. This is a wrong policy that the Negro is so indifferent to vote when no obstructions are put. For this indifference to political matters the members of the race, that nothing really in voting. This is too narrow citizenship. The ballot is the only man can voice an opinion as to the Every resident in a community is governing that community. The police for protection, upon other for various necessities in the way lighting and public improvements, upon the rents paid. Wisdom for the people of Harlem takes as voters to the fullest capacity, the political party that best carries. This will give them a voice in the party ticket. Then let them may cast their ballots on election exercise the full measure of their civil act due to all good citizens. This is the men. Right is the first step toward parting York's children for the sake of a disgraceful quarrel in the Board of Estimate. "We need 100 new buildings, but Hylan has built just two. It is bad city business to be thinking about everything except New York. I want you to think about New York homes, our schools, our schoolchildren, our playgrounds. There ought to be less playing of politics and more intelligence and devotion, if we are to continue proud of this, the greatest city in the world." That is the sort of talk that should appeal to the voters of New York City, the men and women who are the parents of the children. The public schools play a most important part in the training of youth into self-reliant and intelligent marshood and womanhood. Especially is this true of a great city like New York, where all races are gathered together to work and dwell in peace and harmony. To the schools is entrusted the task of making good citizens and 100 per cent Americans. It is therefore essential that their numbers and capacity should be kept equal to the increasing population. Major Curran's insistence on the provision of more schools shows that he is alive to the needs of the people. Things who appreciate the necessity for popular education should support Mr. Curran's candidacy in the primaries, as well as on election day. THE AIRH RADIT. Attendance at an open air religious meeting was long ago revealed the fact that the days of saddening and showing on a gaze of spurious emotion and exasperating have not widely passed away. The problem at the conference is that his speech and gesticulations, resplained in rhapsodies over the golden streams of the new Jerusalem. His hearers were around to the highest pitch of enthusiasm over his flowery pictures of the future life and responded with a rapturous chorus of "amens." It was a purely emotional outburst, unmixed by any constructive effort on the part of the speaker to give his hearers instruction or direction in the ways of upright living and honest striving that would set them on the path of righteousness. Neither preacher nor people received any lasting benefit from the flood of emotion set loose by his appeal to their feelings. The ready responses evoked by the visions portrayed did not mean anything beyond a tickling of the sensations of those who listened. The amen habit was still strong enough to give that ready response. The whole performance was doubtless a mental relaxation for the audience that attended, as it required no thought on the part of the hearers; but the same result could have been attained at the ordinary moving picture show. As a means of spiritual awakening and moral uplift the results were fruitless. It lacks the elements of religious instruction or intelligent worship. It was a purely physical demonstration of emotional nature, without meaning or purpose. Fortunately such exhibitions as this in the name of religion are becoming the exception. The people are demanding a constructive religion that shall teach them who live as well as how to die. The ministry in large measure is meeting its responsibilities by responding to this demand. Special training and equipment are now required for the task of caring for the souls of the congregation and the needs of the body are not neglected. This is the kind of religion that is needed as a year round course, not a spiritual aplure with an "amen" chorus for an open air meeting. Religion should be made a practical means of better living here on earth. The amen habit is but a hollow mockery, if no lasting good comes out of it. Let us have more practical religion that makes for better manhood and womanhood. The aggressive attitude of the "Lily- lye" Republicans in the South moves the Dallas, Tex. Express to the point of indicating some things that should be seriously considered. It says. We believe in Republican principles and our years of support of that party make it hard for us to realize that during all of these years we have made ourselves its willing tool by failing to coordinate our forces as to become a power worthy of its careful consideration in making up its program. In failing to do this we have made our elimination easy. And in case that scheme is followed with the same consistency with which it has been begun we soon will find ourselves facing either the adoption of another party or the formation of one all our own. The adoption of another party would of course mean the division of our voting force for it is not to be supposed that the appeal of any other now in existence would cause us to flock to it en masse. The formation of a party all our own would take on the aspect of another Republican party, black of course, but a unit which under certain conditions might become a balance of power. While the editor of the Express adds that these speculations only, it goes to show that the tax is doing some thinking on the subject The Kansas City, Mo. Call is convinced that caricassism is an attribute of women in politics. It says: If any one doubled the deadly earnestness of women in politics, the meeting of the Negro Women's National Republican Convention would discharge him of that idea. The gathering was not large, but it was impressed with its opportunity and therefore it moved with as much dignity as one of vastly larger numbers. Committee work was not neglected; speeches might interest, but plan did interest. From the moment when Mrs Momen L. Gray as president, called the meeting, until the close, the burden of committee work and discussion never made the delegates weary. A feature of the session was the manner in which the men, erstwhile sole arbiters of things political, came into the meetings. The Convention set a price of $1.00 per head on them, called it honorary membership, and the dollars continued to roll in as they clamored for a hearing and a brief moment in the eyes of the women. This piece of financial strategy shows that the women will not lack for devices in raising campaign funds, the rock upon which so many political movements have foundered. The Philadelphia Tribune wants to know where the mayor of that peaceful city stands on the question of the organization of the Ku Klux Klan. It puts the case as follows: In New York, a Northern city, and Louisville, Ky., a Southern city, the mayor of each have come out holdily and forbid; the entrance of the K. K. but Mayor Moore of Philadelphia is not unlike Woodrow Wilson in his "Wait and Watching" game. Speak out, Mayor Moore, and express yourself. With this injunction to action, and a municipal campaign impending, the head of the municipality should feel it incumbent to align himself on the side of law and order. A layman writing in the A. M. B. Ziem Quarterly Review on "Church Business" sought to emphasize the lack of religious knowledge among adults by the following illustration. He said that he was afraid it was on a par with that of little Eva to whom Bishop Hoss addressed himself at a Nashville public "So you attend Sunday School for me." "Could you perhaps tell me something more to tell you everything that's in it?" I said and tell you everything that's in it," and the Bishop smiled. "Do tell me, then." "Sister's babe's photo is in it," said little Ben promptly. "and man's recipe for vanishing cream is in it, a lock of my half ear cut when I was a baby is in it, and the ticket for pa's watch is in it." This would argue for the necessity of the revival of Bible reading and study among church members. "The ministry should take heed of this criticism from the benches." The Omaha Star says that since lynching has become the national sport in some parts of these United States, many remedies have been proposed as a cure-all. It cites among them "new legislation, strict and impartial law enforcement, unionization of the Negroes and the Golden Rule." Reviewing the action of the authorities in resisting mob law in three recent attempts at lynching, namely, at Barnstable, Mass., Des Moines, Iowa, and Knoxville, Tenn., it claims that theroin lies the real remedy for the lynching evil. It says: Mobs are composed of cowards, moral and physical—who will shrink back every time that death stares them in the face. Determination by officials to uphold the law, and shoot to kill if necessary to protect their criminal charges, will go further toward wiping out the lynching evil, which has become a national disgrace, than all the laws which may be enacted or any of the other remedies proposed. True enough, but it must be borne in mind that in the three instances cited there existed a sufficient public sentiment to back up the authorities in their stand for law and order. There is need for a stronger sentiment for law enforcement in the section where lynching now runs riot. Commenting on the growth of the work of the Presbyterian Church among colored people, the New Era Mayszine said: Negro churches last year gave more to ethnoblue by far than ever before. Twelve new churches for Negroes have been opened in the North the past year. Recently a friend of the cause gave $200,000 to be added to the permanent funds of the Board; making the total now nearly $1,000,000. Following the popular meeting, the Board was given $5,000. The Board is free of debt for the twenty-first successive year. This recalls the remark attributed to a famous educator of the race, that when he met a Negro churchman, who was neither a Baptist nor a Methodist, he suspected that "some white man had been tampering with his religion." The suspicion would now be removed. The Florida Sentinel published at Jacksonville, which claims to be the only distinctive organ of the Republican party in the State, reaffirms its party creed in the following terms: During the thirty-five years of its existence, the Sentinel has espoused the cause of the Republican party, never stooping to dirty and slanderous publications. The fortunes of the party it has shared, criticizing party sins when apparent, and commenting what is right and found in line with the real doctrine of pure Republicanism. We see no reason why we should cease to do this. With the concept of Alexander Hamilton, and Abraham Lincoln, and the others who are the fathers of this party, the Sentinel stands firmly and has no patience with latter day saintism, preaching a mongrel doctrine which can claim no place in pure Republicanism. As an uncompromising expression of stalwart Republicanism, the above will pass muster. But how much of a response will it elicit from those now constituting the party in Florida? That the heaviest liability of the Negro is ignorance, and that it is responsible for most of his ill, is the contention of the Birmingham, Ala. Reporter. It explains that ignorance in this case does not mean illiteracy, but rather the failure to know and do the things, which one can and ought to know and do. It specifies. The fragrant and widespread violation of the elementary principles of health. It applies to those who sleep in stuffy rooms, teach in poorly ventilated schools, sit and waggle for hours in wall-well air-tight halls, and hold prolonged services in buildings which fairly reek with foul air. It points an accusing finger at those who know that drafts are dangerous but will be the first to hoist the window of a moving railway coach, even in wintry weather, includes those who by and failure to keep the clean and free of tin-tins, aid and aid to propagation of mosquitoes and houseflies, the foretanners of malaria, typhoid and berculosis. Nir should those be forbetted who subject themselves in divers ways to needless exposure and, finally, those who are given to dissipation in the matter of eating, drinking, frolicking and sexual indulgence. This is hitting straight from the shoulder at evils and indulgences which can be corrected by intelligent self-control. The press and the pulpit should cooperate to dispel the ignorance that is responsible for these conditions. The policy of disarmament should be extended to woman and her gun argues the Norfolk Journal and Guide in a lengthy editorial. It supports this plea by saying: As long the privileges which women has arrested to herself are the right to bob her hair, to smoke cigarettes in public or private, to wear her clothing as 1-7 at the top and as short of the bottom as it pleases her, and to carry concealed weapons and to护 them, with more of loss of immodality, as the occasion may determine, with the foudre they do not clean hang their hair, shaving their beards, wearing their long white, or if them have abused themselves, were punished in your own discretion. their action was very great and dis couraging. This immunity granted to women charged with murdering their husbands or lovers is not confined to the South Juries composed of males are in tenu- ously lax in finding guilt in such cases if the accused is at all prepossessing in appearance. A jury of women in deal more harshly with offenders of their own sex. THE DISCHARGE OF COL. KERLIN (Richmond (Va.) Times-Daily) Has it come to pass in Virginia a man must choose between the given right of free speech and his has it come to pass that an engaged in teaching Virginia a school usually to broad-mouth progressive as the Virginia Military Institute must confine his visit pages of his textbooks or write walls of his study room, dating to his visit in New York, to believe a great wrong is bound to a people still in infant freedom, or to aid in the solution a racial problem that has took nation to its foundations? It seems such a pass has been reed. For one man did so dare a day he finds himself without a discharged from his profession the Virginia Military Institute he courageously refused to quest of the board of visitors The man is Colonel Robert T. Kellin. His offense consisted of sending a letter to Governor McRae of Arkansas, protesting against the treatment of Negro defendants following the Harriots. His protest was based on institutional grounds as well as upon a broad humanitarianism. He no more than voices what he was minds and hearts of faraway people and both the North and the South, who envisage racial conditions and conflicts above and beyond local outbreaks when inflamed with engulf better judgment. Colonel Kertlin's offense in the case of the board of visitors lies in "reflected upon th e cadministration of justice in that State (Arkansas) and those upon whom the solemn duty of enforcing the laws therein" "by he has, the board believes, entrusted his further connection with the Virginia Institute undesirable" in that would "prove harmful and deterrent thereto and embarrassing to th e responsible for its conduct." The country at large needs the imageously spoken words of such men as Colonel Kerlin, who has studied conditions which he and thousands of others seek to ameliorate. It particularly needs them from Virginia whose interpersonal relations are close to the deal. States to the south of Virginia States to the north of us are looking to Virginia for guidance in the handling of the delicate race problem here, more than in any other state it has ceased to be a problem. And as Virginia, through one of its tamed institutions, answers the call for action by discharging one of its education is fitted to lead, but who does not on justice regardless of color. Unless there be reason to the board's action which have not been given, to the public it must be pronounced narrow and provincial, together unworthy of that broad and kindly leadership of Virginia among the States. There is danger that it wundo much that has been done in promotion of interracial harmony and good understanding.

Our laws and our institutions stand in no need of a sustaining from organizations that walk and seek their objectives under darkness.

Thank God, it has not to such a level, and it never long as its people are inspired with law and order and refused led astray by those who would tute the tenets of lawlessness and order. There is sound logic in the reasoning of that Southern Representative who purposes to ask of Congress an investigation of the "organization operations of the Ku Klux Klan" South, although it is not obvious that he confines it to the South, inasmuch as the order has spread into the Northern States, where it is reputed to grow rapidly. It also may be questioned by what authority Congress undertake an investigation of this organization which trades upward in name of a body of men who did theorious work for the South in the immediately following the Civil War and then disbanded forever. He pointed out, reasonably it seems, that masmuch as so many thugs have done in the name of the Klan, of which it disclaims responsibility much unrest has been engender among certain classes by the protection of the Klan name, and its effects on our social structure and portentous, that the Congress is in view the protection of the unrested welfare, might well look into cities at least to the extent of protecting as to its right of using the United States mails to promote its growth and disseminate its propaganda. It may be doubted if it would be in the province of the Congress bid the members of any secret to wear in public regalia which ceals their identity. That would be left to the police power States or communities, but it is that such an inhibition, whatever source, would destroy the public which at once attracts the public and terrorizes the ignorant. Test the effect and discuss and the civil effects will manifest. There is no cause to cavalry with secret organization so long as its organizations are legitimate and it constitutes no menace to society. It is no business but their own what the members of any society wear in their boots and lodgerooms, or in public offices so long as they are worn to check an inferior purpose. But it is the business of the American people when crimes against society are committed in the name of any secret order, and in order in whose name such offenses are even, even if it be innocent of pardon,igation, is 100 per cent American if will change itself of its objection to law.

The University, referring to this article, said that nothing in the number deserves to be read with attention than Dr. Moton's essay. He presented as the leader of Negro thought in the United States and as the champion of Negro progress his influence is being constantly exerted against those who are preaching race hatred and revolt. The story which this is a remarkable one; but still more remarkable is the spirit in which this argument stands out luminously persuasive against the backdrop of present passions." The article of Dr. Moton is of such interest that it will be reproduced in columns of this Notation, and on account of its length the publication will be more successive issues. The second installment follow: ST. ECONOMIC PROGRESS. the result which the Negro race has made in economic advancement is most interesting pertaining to the reason that he is impossible to make comparisons in directions that are exactness than is needed pertaining to other phases of life in an abundance of opportunities to estimate and combine his material treatment. In opening the Negro progress on some of the most important look for its sig- gest contribution in the aggregate as a resource with which the progress of the people under some basis can be measured. As Fred- Dickinson has been the progress of the Negro, it has been measured by bushman who has gone, but the effort which he has come, assessment of the race without there was the travel and development in slavery and a settlement which acquired in the centers of the slave regime.

Three of the banks among the total mentioned above have over a million dollars in resources. Increase in Wealth. These figures indicate the extent to which the Negro is being woven into the industrial fabric of America, becoming more and more indispensable to its economic life. They show also how he is passing from an employee to an employer, from a dependent factor to a contributing factor. Here is evidence of energy, application, thrift, enterprise, business acumen, and executive capacity, in all of which he must of necessity measure arms with some of the shrewest and most experienced business men in the world. It were vain to boast that he excels anyone, but it is more than encouraging to know that he not only survives but makes progress. This is hopeful for him and reassuring to his friends. It is furthermore true that in all of this success he has generally had the support and encouragement of white people in the community by which he is surrounded. All this industry and activity has meant a rapid increase in the wealth of the Negro. According to the best available information, the total estimated wealth of the race now approximates one billion dollars (1200,000,000). Along with this increase in individual holdings, the race is now entering upon a period of rapidly increasing accumulations of capital in the form of banks, stock companies, and insurance companies of various kinds. These holdings offer prospect of larger and even more rapid increase in wealth in the next few years, a fact which makes the prospect of general race development even more hopeful than heretofore. A comparison with Russia. At the 50th anniversary of the concep- tion of the Negro, celebrated by the race in 1913, a comparison was made of Celtic progress and the progress of the Russian serfs in a similar period. The statement on the matter said:— The serfs were emancipated in 1861. Fifty years after it was found that 14,000,000 of them had accumulated about $500,000,000 worth of property, or about $35 per capita—about $200 per family. After this same lapse of time only about 30 per cent. of the Russian peasants were able to read or write. After 50 years of freedom the 10,000,000 Negroes in the United States have accumulated over $200, 000,000 worth of property, or about $20 per capita and $150 per family, while 70 per cent. of them have some education in books. This record means much for the Negro, not only with respect of his past, but also for the future. In spite of much that is said to the contrary, it is an index of toil, diligence, and thrift; traits that still inhere in the race and promise further development under the stimulus of increasing freedom. It also means much for the white South. In the past, the foundations of industrial and commercial development in the South have been built most largely on Negro labor. The marvellous recovery of the South from the devastation of the Civil War is inseparably associated with these achievements of the Negro for himself. For it is not too much to say that under the industrial system of the South, the Negro, in whatever gains he had made for himself, has gained at least an equal amount for his white possibilities both for the white man and the black man in Negro economic development. Both as a laborer and as a THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1821. buyer, as well as an investor, his possibilities are yet to be developed. Those who have taken the first steps to encourage such development on a just and considerate basis have found that it pays large dividends both in immediate cash returns and permanent economic stability. V. SOCIAL PROGRESS. The facts set forth thus far are of a kind that can be measured, at least approximately, in figures, but there are other phases of Negro life whose story is to be learned beat by direct observation. It is this part of the Negro's development that is known by very few people outside of the race. This part is the social progress of the Negro. By this is meant the evolution of a well-regulated and harmonious social structure within the race itself that provides for the more intimate personal needs of its members, and ministers largely to a rapidly growing race-consciousness. Its natural source of development is in home life. Perhaps in no phase of his life did the Negro have so far to come in his journey from bondage to freedom as in the most sacred institution of civilization—the home. Nowhere, perhaps, did slavery work a greater hardship to the race than in this mater of home life. Even as a heathen, family relations were both real and sacred to the black man—more sacred perhaps than is true in many quarters of more modern civilization. But slavery destroyed nearly all this for the Negro, so that on emancipation he had to build his home life from the bottom up. The struggle from the one room cabin—the heritage from slavery by way of the quarters—to the home of respected privacy, to pure morals, of high ideals emulating friendships and lofty aspirations, has been both long and hard—how hard is known only to a few outside of the race; but within the race it is a story full of pain and oftimes of bitterness. But the race has arrived in this as in other things. It is impossible to tell this story by the printed page; but no man can say he knows the race until he has been within the contines of such a home among this people and breathed its atmosphere and felt its impulses. Here it is that the Negro has learned to be proud of himself and of his race; here his friends must see him before they can understand him. I sometimes feel that if those who discredit the race could only behold this picture of the Negro, their fears and alarms, as well as all prejudices and unfriendliness would instantly disappear. Negro Teacher. For the maintenance of these homes there has grown up a body of school mothers—more than 40,000 in number—those affords in behalf of their young charges with limited equipment are sometimes pathetic. But it is positively inspiring to look upon a group of these teachers assembled at one of the many summer schools that they eagerly attend with a view to their own improvement for their work. There is within them a deep consciousness of the meaning of their labors for their race, and not the least of their virtues is the decision which they show, in spite of the fact that school systems almost everywhere in the South provide form with salaries very much lower than are paid their white colleagues of the same grades, for the same work, under obviously more favorable conditions. Yet they are enthusiastic, resourceful, and in most cases uncomplaining. They are in many ways the race's most hopeful asset; they stand, both for the Negro and the white man, between the South and all the menace and danger from ignorance, incapacity, and shiftlessness.

However, this opinion was not borne out, as Holmes eliminated his pupil in the semifinals, and won the finals in this event from Dr. Williams of Chicago, by a score of 6.4 9-7 to 3. Another surprise of the tournament was the comparatively poor showing of the New Yorkers. Twenty players from the different clubs of this city were entered in the tournament, and it was confidently expected that New York would win a championship in the ladies' singles, in no other event. But in the ladies' singles as in the other events, the New Yorkers were defeated. The winner of the ladies' singles was Mrs Lucy Slowe of Baltimore, who defeated Miss Channels of Chicago, no. 3, 40-6, 10. In the nets' doubles, I. Hollegs and S. Smith of Washington defeated Walktun and Freeman, also of Washington, for the championship of that event. The score was 7:5, 7:5, 8:0. The New Yorkers reached the final in the mixed doubles, when James, Buit and Mrs Lottie Wade of New York played Freeman and Hawkins of Washington. The Washingtonians were the winners by a score of 3:1. The tournament with a total of 135 entries was one of the best set held South. American Tennis Association.

Hart, famous portrayer of western had men's roles in Paramount pictures has a novel role—that of a mill foreman in his latest picture, "The Whistle," shown at the Lincoln Theatre Thursday. Although "The Whistle" is said to be equal to "The Testing Block" and "O'Malley of the Mounted," productions which are establishing new productions throughout the country, in its pulp novel series, these two productions, a western picture "The Whistle" deals with an interesting phase of industrial life. The story is dramatic and the various situations, including a characteristic Hart fight, are thrilling. Myrtle Steadman and Frank Browneau, not to speak of the three famous juvenile players, have the leading supporting roles.

Jackie Moore of the 15th Regiment outpointed Al Kale of the 12th Regiment in the main bout at the 15th Armory on Friday night, September 2nd. Several months ago Kale won a decision over Moore, but by changing his tatics on Friday night Moore was able to outpoint his opponent in every round. The fight was a fine exhibition of good boxing and was well enjoyed by all present. The semi-final bout, between Al Reese of the 12th Regiment and Joel Paul of the 69th, had to be discontinued in the fifth round because Reese sprained his hand. The decision was awarded to Paul. One of the preliminary bouts was featured by a knock out. The principals of this bout were Barney Williams of the 19th Coast Defense and Kid Dean of the 15th. Dean put up a good fight in the first two rounds, and was apparently outpointing his opponent but in the third round Williams opened up with several terrific blows to the body, and after 1 minute and 33 seconds floored Dean for the count with a powerful blow to the stomach. In the other preliminary bouts Joe Blake, of the 71st Regiment defeated Kid Cunningham of the 15th, and Young Hart of the Naval Militia and Kid Bennett of the 15th fought four rounds to a draw. Summary of bouts: Four rounds: Joe Blake, 71st Rgt. (124lb) vs. Kid Cunningham, 15th Rgt. (125lb) Won by Blake. Four rounds: Naval Militia, (135lb) vs. id Bennett, 15th (135lb).

PANAMA JOE GANS LOSES HARD BOUT TO McTIGUE Panama Joe Gans, the colored middle-weight champion, and Mike McTigue provided the real thrill at Boyle's Thirty Aves on Labor Day in the semi-finals of the Wilson-Downey fight. This tight was interesting from start to finish, although Gans was defeated on points by a slight margin. In the first four round, Gans outpainted his white opponent, but during the seventh and eighth McTigue bad Gans, groggy with blows to face. However, Gans managed 16 weather this season, and he was crowned with rounds stood tee to tee with his opponent and exchanged blow for blow, while the jams climbed upon the backs of their chairs and yelled with delight. More than thirty thousand people saw the fight, and although the Wilson-Downey match was booked as the main attraction, the fans all agreed that Gans and McTigue-sought the star bout of the afternoon. Before the fight, the betting odds were on Gans, and it is said that overconfidence on this part was largely responsible for his losing the bout. Nevertheless, he showed himself to be champion fighter by rallying after being nearby knocked out in the eight round, and giving his opponent a tough time for the remainder of the fight.

CALL TO ADVENTURE INSPIRES MENDACITY The spirit of adventure is not dead in American boys. Furthermore, the spirit of Anamias has joined heads with it. Captain D. W. Smith of the Old British Convict Ship, "Success" now lying at West 19th Street Dock, was standing near the gangway one day last week when he noticed a youngster about twelve years of age who was casting longing looks at the old hulk which had battled the seas for 131 years. The your gister asked innumerable questions of one of the officers who finally directed the boy to the ship's commander. "Dry want a cabin boy?" he asked, and here the captain could reply, he told him to go "back home" to Australia. The captain explained that it might be many years before the old "Success" ever went back to Australia, but the boy was still insistent that he wanted to be a cabin boy and "travel around." First a Stoaway Then Mascot He then told a harrowing story of having traveled to France during the war with Australian troops and becoming a mascot when he was discovered as a stowaway. In France, he said, he met up with the 69th Regiment, New York, and declared he came back with them to New York. Since then he said he had done "old jobs" and slept in the parks THE NEW PARK FORMERLY THE PROPERTY OF THE WESTFIELD GOLF CLUB Beautiful club house with modern equipment. Ball ground.

Although, the yarn was improbable, it was plausible enough for the Captain to tell the boy to go aboard and look around the ship, after explaining that he could not give him a job. An hour later, the boy made his way down the gangplank, at the foot of which was ten-year-old Horace W. Mortimer, son of the press agent of the boat, who lives at 504 Riverside Drive "Lo, Sam" "Lo, Horrace" said the supposed youthful war veteran. And he ran past Captain Smith. "Dye know him?" asked the captain of young Mortimer. "Sure. Used to go to school with him over on 'Amsterdam avenue,' by the car barns. He was the biggest liar in the school."
