Montgomery, Ala.—A sensational development which was brought out at the recent tri-council of bishops of the three great Negro Methodist bodies, the A. M. E., A. M. E. Zion and C. M. E. Churches, was the action taken by bishops of the A. M. E. Church in tendering a public apology to bishops of the other two denominations.
Montgomery, Ala.—A sensational development which was brought out at the recent tri-council of bishops of the three great Negro Methodist bodies, the A. M. E., A. M. E. Zion and C. M. E. Church, was the action taken by bishops of the A. M. E. Church in tendering a public apology to bishops of the other two denominations.
The apology was made necessary by an cultural attack on Negro bishops of the churches, appearing in the January, 1922 issue of the "Young Allente," one of the publications of the Sunday-school Union of the A. M. E. Church, reputed to have been written by Ira T. Bryant of Nashville, Tenn., secretary-treasurer of the Sunday-school Union. This editorial was characterized as "containing comminuting statements, vicious innuendement and slanderous inferences, the same being conceived, written and expressed in Christian and malicious spirit."
As a result of this editorial, Bishop S. Smith of the A. M. E. Church, a spokesman for the bishops' council, connection in the making of a apology to bishops of the sister churches, this taking the form of a set of instructions adopted by the A. M. E. Council, deploring the text and the editorial attack and discrediting and repudiating the acts and manners of the editor of the "Young Allente."

It is a matter of record that during this time Bryant characterized the New York, Aca. as being the most bitter enemy in existence of the A. M. E. Church, because of criticisms appearing in the columns of this paper concerning certain of the officials of the A. M. E. connection. An amusing incident in this connection was the personal meeting, six years ago at Philadelphia, during session of the A. M. E. general conference, of Ira T. Bryant and Fred R. Moore, editor of THE Ack.

The story of the Incident, as told to THE Aca. correspondent here, goes that Mr. Moore, while in company with Bishop Beckett and Dr Rankin, secretary of missions, was introduced to Bryant by Bishop Caldwell of the Zion connection, and that THE Ack editor
Bryant's Resignation Demanded
It was further declared that the immediate resignation of Mr. Bryant had been demanded and that in case of his refusal to comply with this demand, the board of managers of the Sunday-school Union was requested to suspend him from all functions of his office. The power of the board of managers in this latter request was the subject of disagreement and controversy in the bishops' council. Intense feeling was aroused, there being those in the council who declared the board of managers to be without power in the matter of supporting the secretary treasurer from his office. The acrimonious debate which terminated when Bishop L. S. Hopper, chairman of the board of managers resigned from that position, Bishop W. D. Chappelle being elected in his

The story of the Incident, as told to THE Ace correspondent here, goes that Mr. Moore, while in company with Bishop Beckets and Dr. Rankin, secretary of missions, was introduced to Bryant by Bishop Caldwell of the Zion connection, and that THE Ace editor promptly took the secretary-treasurer to task for attacks on THE Ace, accusing him at same time of intentional mendacity. Those present at the time assert with amusement that Bryant's fighting blood was not in evidence, but that he, as quickly as he could, found urgent business at some other point. Bryant, in this latter attack upon bishops of the three denominations, evidently considered himself well-fortified in his entrenchments, and it remains to the seen whether he is stronger or not than the bishops of his connection. The resolutions adopted by the A. M. E. bishops and read in public by Bishop Smith, as an apology to bishops of the C. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion churches, was as follows:

VISITING A SERVANT, IS TAKEN FOR ROBBER
(Special, to The New York Age).
Orange, N. J.-On departing, after calling on his girl employed at a boarding house at 90 Halstead street, East Orange, Le Roy Anthony was taken for a burlar and had an exciting time in an effort to flee.
A. J. Bush, the proprietor, fired three shots into the floor in an effort to stop the fugitive, and outside the chase was taken up by Milton Shoenthal, a resident of the house, who caught Anthony at Central avenue. The pursued gave up, Shoenthal said, when he shouted a threat that he would plug him full of holes.
It was found that the visitor had been admitted by the servant, Mary Morris, nineteen years old. Both were placed under arrest by Reservemen Springfield and Weiner, but were discharged the next morning, when Mr. Bush refused to make a complaint.

A., Black Star Line, and other enterprises, by returning additional indictments on the charge of using the United States mails to defraud, the indictments naming not only Garvey himself, but, as was, predicted two weeks ago, several others of the high officials of the organization.

Harlemites have shown much curiosity over an exhibition now being conducted in a rear room on the ground floor of the "Negro Bank Building" at corner of 135th street and Lenox avenue, in which stock promoters are endeavoring to sell residents of the neighborhood stock in the M-V All-Weather Train Controller Co., Inc., a Newark, N.

The Federal Grand Jury, on Thursday, February 10th, took further action in the matter of charges against Marcus Garvey, president general of the U.-N.-I. A., Black Star Line, and other enterprises, by returning additional indictments on the charge of using the United States mails to defraud, the indictments naming not only Garvey himself, but, as was predicted two weeks ago, several others of the high officials of the organization. The indictments also charged the men with conspiracy to defraud.
Elie Gartia, George Tobias and Orlando, M. Thompson were named by the grand jury, and, with Garvey, they were arranged on Friday, the 10th, for a hearing before Federal Judge Edwin S. Thomas, Assistant United States Attorney Joyce appeared as prosecutor for the government.
Garvey's counsel requested an extension of time for his client, in which to prepare special motions, and this was granted. The request also included Thompson, Judge Thomas granted a delay in the pleadings of Garvey and Thompson until February 20th, but Garcia and Tobias were called for immediate pleading. They entered pleas of not guilty and were held for trial

This campaign, organized to sell stock

been conducted in other section of New

withstanding that it does to appear that
any railroad is putting the device into

Wary investors, however, call attention to the fact that this company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1917, and that it has been selling stock in various parts of the country since that time. It is alleged to be capitalized at $2,000,000. Further comment is to the effect that it is unusual for a practical invention to require five years for promotion, and attention is directed to report that though the stock of this company has been listed for some time on the Stock Exchange, there is little or no demand for it.
Consult Your Banker.
Colored people have been fooled so many times in speculating ill-investments that it has been suggested as a good plan for choicel with have money to invest to consult its banker, broker or lawyer before putting hard-carmed dollars in a speculative proposition. For years Harlen has been a fruitful field for all kinds of get-rich-quick schemes and smooth and plausible promoters have had a readership in this section for exploiting their wares. Harlenies are beginning to realize, however, that investing money is a specialized science, not to be attempted incautiously by those who are without expert knowledge and experience.

When arraigned on Monday, February 30th, before Judge Webb in the Federal Court, Marcus Garvey pleaded not guilty to the charges of conspiracy to defraud and to using the United States mail for fraudulent purposes, and was held in $2,500 bail for final pleading.
Arrested January 12th.
Garvey was the first arrested by agents of the Department of Justice on January 12th, on the charge of using the mail for fraudulent purposes. The arrest was made at his apartment, 130 West 129th street, and he was taken before United States Commissioner Hitchcock in the Federal Building and held to the Federal Grand Jury at $2,500 bail. On February 3rd, an indictment was handed down by the grand jury and it was intimated then by United States Attorneys Hayward's office that other officials of the Garvey enterprises would be indicted. It is not known as yet whether others than Garcia, Tolias and Thompson will be indicted or not. It is set forth specifically in the in-

A Stock Broker's Advice.
One of the prominent Harlem business men is Claudius A. Meade of 226 Seventh avenue, himself a licensed stock broker, and he expressed himself in the following words concerning the Train Controller Co. proposition:
"Concerning the M-V Train Controller, I would say that at a time like this when colored Harlem should be profiting by the large number of near swindles and spurious investments of the recent past, it is surprising that so many are gullible enough to invest in the remote speculative possibilities of what really is only a mechanical toy, which since 1907 has been exploited in a so called effort to raise $208,000.
"It is time be began buying standard, seven and eight per cent, bonds, the issue, which are subscribed in half hour, sometimes, and which are not netted among the curious at crowded street corners."
The M-V train controller is alleged to be a device capable of preventing wrecks during snowstorms, rainstorms, fogs, etc., by a new kind of signal arrangement, and it is dominated by its promoters as one of the seven greatest railroad inventions. The prospective buyer is afforded demonstrations of its efficacy by means of electrification, controlled miniature train, and there is an apparently inexhaustible supply of alleged recharge from railroad men. Figures are quoted in abundance showing money made by other inventions, all with a view to creating an amusement of riches to be brought by the train controller.
The colored students at the 124th street Branch Y. W. C. A. 124th street and Seventh avenue, are planning to bring suit against that institution for alleged discrimination. These young women are Miss Anna L. Bullock and Miss Luckey, who are taking courses in the business school there.
It is alleged that these young women went into the cafeteria with the other members of their stenographic class to get lunch, but were told that they could not be served there. The appealed to the executive secretary, Miss Dyom, who offered to give them extra time to walk up to the colored branai at 137th street, but stated that prejudice was very strong to her against colored girls eating in the cafeteria.
Both Miss Bullock and Miss Luckey are refined and would reflect credit on the colored race anywhere. They have consulted Councillor Henry A. Rucker, Jr. of 299 Broadway, who states that if, after a thorough investigation of the case, he finds that the Civil Rights law has been violated, he will proceed immediately against the parties responsible.
BOY AND FAT TURKEY
AROUSE SUSPICIONS
(Special to The New York Age).
Newark, N. J. "The sight of a young boy dragging a fae turkey along Mulberry street aroused the suspicions of Patrolman George Goetz, who took the boy to the office of Daniel Nusbaum, assistant clerk at the Capital Market, 1002 Bergen street, where he was questioned. Investigation revealed the loss of a 14-pound turkey from a wagon belonging to Nusbaum & Schlosch, which had been standing on the plaza. The boy was taken to the Parental School after it had been established that he was in the habit of running away, stealing enough food upon which to live, and sleeping in vacant buildings.

He will oppose the giving of a bonus to World War veterans, either by the State or Federal authorities. Serving as a major in the Old 15th N. Y. Col. Little speaks with authority when he declares that members of the outfit are not seeking any gratuity for the services rendered as members of the famous Hellfighters, and would regard such action in the light of an insult.

In Affidavit Swears She Advanced Money and Bought Clothes for Present Alderman Harris and That Same Has Never Been Repaid
Alleged Divorce Told Of
Declares Harris Knew Whereabouts, Although He Swore to Ignor Served With Summons in Divorce on
Trenton, N. J.—Disclosures which would seem to make necessary at least an explanation from George W. Harris, editor of the "New York News," 135 West 135th street, and member of the Board of Aldermen, New York City, from the 21st A. D., are contained in an affidavit duly attested and sworn to by Mrs. Agnes L. Kemp-Harris, principal of the Trenton School of Designing and Dressmaking, a prosperous establishment, located in a well-pointed three-story brick building at 31 Montgomery street, the city. Mrs. Kemp-Harris was married to Alderman Harris on June 5th, 1912.
The affidavit made by Mrs. Kemp-Harris, a copy of which has come into possession of the correspondent, alleges by implication that her husband, who was granted a divorce by an Alexandria county, Va., judge on December 13th, 1917, secured same by misrepresentation, and would seem to imply also that the present marriage of the New York City official might not stand legal scrutiny.
Copy of Affidavit
The affidavit as made by Mrs. Kemp-Harris, and sworn to before William S. Mills, notary public, of Mercer county, N. J., reads as follows:

Claimed Virginia Realence.
The wording of this affidavit recalls the publication by Turr, Arz, in its issue of July 23, 1921, of certified copies of Virginia courts records, which showed that George W. Harris, on February 10th, 1921, had sworn to be a legal resident of Virginia since July 5th, 1915, notwithstanding that he had at all times, during the period covered by his deposition, been actually engaged in the publication of The News in New York City. In connection with the deposition by Harris, there were published also sworn depositions from Mrs. Hatie Anderson, 533 Lenox avenue, New York City, and W. F. Troman, 533 Franklin avenue, Brooklyn, supporting the claim made by Harris of having established a Virginia residence. In his sworn deposition, Harris stated that he was ignorant of the whereabouts of Mrs. Harris, but in her affidavit, Mrs. Kemp-Harris declares that she had gone to Asheville, N. C., "with the full knowledge of said Harris, * * * for the purpose of supporting herself, and she did so support herself. That at all times, she said Harris knew her whereabouts and the reason for her departure, and that she was engaged in earning her own living following his failure to do so."
Mrs. Kemp-Harris makes the definite and positive declaration in this affidavit that never had she been served with summons or notice of any divorce action, and that she had never had knowledge of divorce being brought against her of any kind or character whatsoever. And that notwithstanding this state of facts, "she is now informed that the said Harris has married and is now living with a woman who purports to be his wife in the City of Brooklyn, N. Y.

Federal Government Should Protect Citizens at Home
Newark Audience Told on Lincoln Day by Rev. W. P. Hayes, U. S. Should Extend Same Protection to Citizens at Home as On Foreign Land (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE).
Newark, N. J.—Speaking on the subject, "Frederick Douglass," at the joint birthday celebration held in memory of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass at the First Presbyterian Church, on Monday, February 13th, the Rev. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, New York City, stirred the large audience to a large-degree of enthusiasm when he declared the Federal government ought give the same protection to its citizens in America as on foreign land.

William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, New York City, stirred the large audience to a large degree of enthusiasm when he declared the Federal government ought give the same protection to its citizens in America as on foreign land.
The Dyer Anti-Ynching Bill, now in the Senate, was the base on which the speaker built his remarks to prove "the present inequality existing in this country among races."
"The old order changeth," he quoted, "but to add another remark, we can say like Bamuco's ghost it will not vanish."
"It is up to us to bring pressure to bear on the Senate of this country to have the Dyer Anti-Lyndhing Bill passed and enacted. If we sleep, it is more than probable the Senate will sleep. The Senate is used as a convenient cemetery to bury bills politicians want killed."
Defining Democracy.
"And that is is the condition," he continued, "that is confronting us now. By constitutional amendment things are supposed to have been changed for members of our race, but though the order has changed constitutionally, the older order still exists:
"It means is democracy? Defined, it means that every man is a sovereign to determine what may and what may not be done by a government. There is no power greater than the individual."
"By that condition, a man is entitled to a trial by jury of his peers when charged with a crime. But when he is left to the mercy of an extra-judicial body, known as a path, whose vengeance parallels the most solidid atrocities of savages, then where is democracy?
"Nectaros almost exclusively are subject to that form of democracy. Therefore it is in good hands to govern."

"It is up to us to bring pressure to hear on the Senate of this country to have the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill passed and enacted. If we sleep, it is more than probable the Senate will sleep. The Senate is used as a convenient cemetery to bury bills politicians want killed.

"If this country can give protection to its citizens in foreign countries is there any reason why it cannot accord it to its citizens while they are in the United States?
"This country has more power over foreign States in protecting its citizens than it has in the protection of them in the various States. The violation of an American's rights in Mexico or Russia or any place else would lead to war if an apology and reparations were and forthcoming. But when a citizen of this country is hindered the Government regrets exceedingly it cannot become involved in 'State's rights.'

"Why should we longer have a Federal Government if it cannot exact order from its own States?" At this point the enthusiasm reached such a point that the audience rose and cheered the number for more than five minutes with applause. "The right you deserve."

· Mayor's Death Stops Parade.
The meeting was held following a street parade of Boy Scouts from St. John's Church to the First Presbyterian Church. The features, such as the parading of fraternal organizations and Civil War veterans, had been eliminated in respect to the late Mayor Archibald, Major George Haven Putnam, a Civil War veteran of New York, and the man who succeeded in restoring law and order at Georgia at the close of the Civil War in his capacity as post adjutant of Savannah, was another speaker, addressing the audience on "Abraham Lincoln: His Life and Anecdotes," Major Putnam was personally acquainted with both Lincoln and Douglass.
The meeting was opened by an invitation delivered by the Rev W. A. Hubbard. Extracts from speeches of Douglass were quoted and commented on by Counsellor W. B. Brandon, following which Miss Elsie Garland delivered Lincoln's Gettsyburg address.
Benediction was pronounced by the Rev. A. L. Carr.
The plan of the entire body parading to the Lincoln statue was abandoned in defence to Mayor Archibald's death and instead the Roy Scouts, accompanied by the speakers, marched there alone and in a simple manner placed wreaths on the statue.

is limited or abridged, that it
should be within the province of the
people to remove the limitation or
ringement. Another one proposed the
organization in order to support any
originating in justice to change the present existing condition.
Another declared, "We reaffirm the
right of the colored citizens of Rhode
Island to equal opportunity and responsi-
bility before the law."
One touching upon State laws was in effect that "as no full enjoyment of civil rights can come to the colored people of Rhode Island because the minority and not the majority control legislation, we favor the necessary amendments to the Constitution, whereby the majority and not minority will control."
Rev. R. A. Carrell, pastor of the Zion Church, awarded the Republican party as "a party that uses the Negro for its own selfish ends in Rhode Island." He convinced the party for the wrongs which he claims it has vested on the members of his race in Rhode Island.
Another speaker, Dr. William H. Higgins, served the Republicans for what he termed the consolidation of racial and national regimes, and the awarding of political places to members of these groups. Mysers R. Vernon强推 as chairman and introduced the following speakers. Rev. R. M. McCoy, J. O. Lattimore, C. H. Dixon, Dereon Rey, M. J. Moss, and Miss Anne A. Lewis.

$75,000 School Building Erected at Reidsville, N.
Modernly Equipped Structure for Colored Children of Graded and High School Classes-Lincoln Day Address by Chas. H. Moore of Greensboro
Reidsville, N. C.—Prof. Charles H. Moore, of Greensboro, was the orator here on the occasion of the 113th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birthday. The exercises were held in the afternoon in the large auditorium, seating capacity one thousand, of the new graded and high school building which cost more than $75,000.
Prof. Moore served one year (1914-19) as principal of the local graded school during an interregnum in his services as organizer of the National Negro Business League. It was during his one year's administration here that he was successful in causing the city Board of Education to use the need of providing better and larger accommodations and facilities for our school children. They gave him their word that they would make such provisions as soon as possible. The United States, however, having entered the World War the year after Prof. Moore resumed his work in the National Business League, the fulfillment of the Board's promise was delayed.
Reidsville is a progressive Carolina town of about 8,000 inhabitants, one third of whose population is of our race. Its chief industry is the manufacturing of plug and smoking tobacco, under the auspices of the American Tobacco Manufacturing Company. About 2,000 colored persons of both sexes are employed in their factories. They make money with which they build homes, establish various business enterprises, send their children to school, worship God under their own vine and fig tree and live in peace and harmony with themselves and their white fellow citizens.
An Up-to-Date Buildnig.
But last fall four children entered this splendid structure, the like of which is no where in the state surpassed, if indeed it is equalized, in the architectural design and in its class room appointments.
It is a three-story brick building, with granite grimmings, including the basement. In the later are rooms for teaching domestic science and manual training. Here is also the boiler room. On the second floor, are two recitation rooms in the front part of the building; in the rear, across the hallway, is the main floor of the auditorium. On the third floor are two more recitation rooms, the principal office and the art gallery of the auditorium. The old frame building, which served as the former graded school structure, located in the rear, consisting of ten rooms, is still used for the grammar grades. The rooms in the new building are for the high school department, carrying a four years' course. We are informed that within a year or two the old building will be replaced with a large modern school building.
The principal, I. A. McKee, has associated with him seventeen coworkers. And they have behind them a Board of Education and City Superintendent, who are deeply interested in the educational welfare of the seven hundred colored children enrolled.
Lessons from Lincoln's Life.
Prof. Moore, on this occasion and at the same time, in his very timely and practical address, laid much emphasis upon the lessons to be derived from three outstanding traits in Mr. Lincoln's life, to wit: his industry, his zeal for knowledge, and his honesty.
After recounting some of the achievements of the race during the last half century or more, made possible by the life and conduct of such a great and good man as Abraham Lincoln, the speaker, in closing his foreword, said,
"I am satisfied that we thoughtful person who has given great attention to what life has taught and this attention regarding the marvelous tactics and practices pertaining to the march of progress during the last thirty years or of the life of the negro will be inspired by the experience that these with much of patience
To the intelligent and child prodigy of history, we have but their more than made a start so far as the masses are concerned.
What achievements we have successfully accomplished, in individual members of our race, is a very hopeful index of our effort, of which the extent of what they may and can do during the coming half century makes our counsel and a prudent and faithful leadership.
And farthermore, may you not to give heed to follow any other kind of leader or teacher be so mercifully safe, safe and sound in the teachings, and in addition thereto that both his private and public conduct spurs with his accents.
Reidsville a Tabocco Town
"And to those in authority, of the other race, who may be disposed to mistreat and indulge (determine against us, say to them) All that the Negro asks is that the door which rewards industry, trust, intelligence and character, be left to wide open for him, as for the foreigner who comes to our shores to enjoy the fruits of our labor."

Daytona, Fla. The annual rally in behalf of Daytona Normal and Industrial School, founded seventeen years ago, by Mrs Mary McLeod Bednich principal, has been set for March 15th, and an energetic campaign is on for the raising of $5,000.
Mrs. Bethune is anguish that the effort will be successful, but she is devoting all possible energy to the campaign, and in this she is being loyalty supported by her co-workers on the faculty and the board of trustees. The following appeal has been issued and sent to friends of the school in all sections of the country:
If thou hast much give plodiously; if thou hast little in the diligence gladly to give of that little; for on gatherest thou thy self a good reward in the day of necessity.
The months have told around and brought us the time of our annual rally, which is the opportunity of teachers, students and friends to demonstrate self-help on the part of the Negro and they to begin our institution in the hour of great need. We are asking you to manifest your interest in the Negro girl of the South and your confidence in a growth of prepared, conquered Negro women who are doing a good work for God and the race, by sending a contribution to and us in teaching our goal-$400.
Mrs. Bethune is urging each friend of the school to send at least $1,000 notice, to assist in securing the desired com-

No, there is not a bank in Fayetteville operated by Negroes, but there are Negroes in this city who own nine blocks of stock in banks operated by white people.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Chelsea Justice William H. Taft, in his address on Founder's Day at Tuskegee Institute two years ago, agreed that Founder's Day at Tuskegee Institute should be as significant to the Negro as George Washington's birthday is to the American public in general. The host of Negroes and white friends who gather at the institute each year upon this occasion to pay tribute to the memory of Dr. Booker T. Washington, attests the system in which this event is held, not only in Negroes, but the public at large. There is a special interest in the observance this year in account of the meeting of the Booker T. Washington monument, which will be held in connection with Founder's Day exercises on April 5th.
Each year since the death of Dr. Booker T. Washington a prominent American has delivered the Founder's Day Address. The array of speakers or some of the most elegant orators on the program this year is composed and led by guest thought on America. Dr. Booker's Day Address will be delivered by Dr. Wallace Buttick, chairman of the General Education Board, Joseph Daniels, exSecretary of the Navy, will represent the South; Dr. George C. Hall, one of the leading citizens of Chicago will represent the Negro and Dr. Emmet J. Scott, secretary treasurer Howard University, was for eight years secretary to Dr. Washington, will formally present the monument to the trustees of the institute.
The Booker T. Washington Memorial which is the work of the famous sculptor, Charles Keck, of New York, has been proclaimed "a master work of art" by those who have visited the sculptor's studio. It is a representation in bronze, standing eight feet high.

NOTICE.
WORKING CHRISTIANITY. Some peculiar phases of working Christianity are reported as being practiced at the West 135th Street Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association. For instance it is stated on good authority that young men securing employment through this organization are required to pay a certain percentage of their earnings to the management of the institution. It is not known whether this is an authorized policy of the managers or a private perquisite for some individual connected with it. It is also stated that a recent applicant for aid, who was represented as a refugee from the vengeance of the Ku Klux Klan in the South, upon preferring his request for lodging and employment, was told that the institution did not afford that kind of relief. He was re-
required to take his troubles to the
Station Army and a card was given
his desire for temporary re-
lief and employment.
It may be legitimate business for the
U.C.A. to levy a toll on the earn-
ings of those young men for whom it
makes employment, but it savors more
profit from an employment agency.
Christian organization. To a significant for relief to the Sal-
tation Am. an indication of inability
mewlingness to shoulder its own re-
sultivities by turning them over to
another organization, which has burdens
of its own.
Neither of these stories warrants the
assumption that the Branch is doing the
work that it was intended to do. In fact,
the both go to show that the usefulness
of the institution has been crippled by
the retention in office of a secretary who
has lost his usefulness. It sounds like a
case of working "Christianity" for all
$t is worth.
FOOLISH INVESTMENTS
Harlem has long been a rich field for the promoters of get-rich-quick schemes. Stocks of all kinds, in all sorts of concerns, from oil wells and copper mines to patent medicines and adjustable household devices, have been peddled around by plausible vendors, who promise fabulous dividends on the investment of large or small sums. It is the exception when stock in a sound enterprise is offered in this manner.
Stocks, of any kind are at the best a speculative investment. The person who buys or subscribes for stock in any enterprise assumes all the risks of a partner in the enterprise. If the project fails, dividends cease if they ever began, and the investor loses all that he has invested. Unless the stock represents a going business, the promoters of which are known personally to the investor as men of honesty and experience in their particular line, the scheme lacks the first element of legitimate investment. At the best, the purchase of any stock is a gamble, with the odds against the outside investor.
If the interest paid by the savings banks does not furnish a satisfactory return for the investor, let him put his money in guaranteed mortgages or bonds from LLP. Some responsible enterprise is required by ample property holdings. Such bonds should only be purchased after seeking expert advice. Above all the small investor should beware of speculating on a margin, as such a course will probably take him into the bucket shops, where his pall will soon vanish to the tune of the stock ticker.
For the great majority of mankind there is no quick road to riches. The propensity to seek one and get quick returns from small investments is the human failing that puts money in the stock schemes pockets and keeps the guillible investor poor. It is high time to take warning and light shy of specious stock schemes.
Republican National Committee from Georgia, has been the subject of considerable discussion between Editor John Mitchell, Jr., of the Richmond Planet and Editor Benjamin Jefferson Davis of the Atlanta Independent. The former contended that an open break had taken place between the latter and the National Committeeman, which indicated a split in the Republican organization of Georgia. Editor Davis repelled the impeachment with the following reservations:
You are wrong. Brother Mitchell. There is no split in the organization, except that Mr. Johnson has adopted for himself the policy of sitting in humiliation at the feet of the lily whites and undertaking to stand at the same time at the head of the column of thirteen million Negro citizens as their political leader. He has adopted the policy of running with the lily whites and holding with the organization of which he is leader. The organization in the state is solidly against the policy of vacillation and surrender, and there is no personal break between the Editor and Mr. Johnson. It is not that we love the Colonel less, but that we love the rights of our group more than we do the personal ambition of any one individual. It is a question of principle with us that envolves the entire race's political status for all time to come. We are thinking in terms of a thousand and not of a political meal for one man. We love Mr. Johnson, and will serve him personally whenever we can; but we cannot subscribe to his political leadership; we cannot adopt nor follow his policies; we believe in no surrender of our rights to any man or set of men. The rights of all first, and jobs for the individuals last.
Mr. Johnson is a public servant and directly accountable to the Republicans of Georgia; and if the President has not treated him right—and the country knows it—it is his business to report to us and let us fight his battle, and not acquiesce in or surrender the rights of all of us for peace with an administration that has violated every promise it made when bidding for votes.
If this declaration of independence by his former political henchmen does not serve to break the silence maintained so strictly by the Georgia leader, we shall have to seek a solution of the situation by consulting the narrative of "Uncle Remes," as interpreted by another famous Georgian: "En Brer Rabbit, he lay low."
GOVERNOR MILLER'S ATTITUDE It is no new thing for THE ACE to stand for the recognition of the race in politics, as through its long career it has consistently advocated the appointment of fit and capable candidates for office, under city, State and national administration. Because THE ACE and its editor have emphasized the fact that the present State administration has failed to recognize the Negro voters, seems to have aggrieved one of our local contemporaries, who essays the role of apologist for the Governor.
This groueling apologist has limits to his self-abasement, as he ends his abusive trajice concerning the editor of True Ace and his servile flattery of the Governor with the statement, that "We do not here discuss his failure to recognize the race." Even his servility could not go so far as to justify the position assumed by the Governor. If he dared not either approve or disapprove the failure he hints at, he had better maintain the silence that best conceals his ignorance and lack of courage to face the facts.
This situation in New York State, and particularly in New York City, at this time, is one that calls for plain speaking to the responsible leaders of the Republican party. The Negro voters constitute an element that must be reckoned with. They feel that they have not received a square deal from the Governor and the other leaders in the State. The recognition given by the Democratic municipal administration in New York City is contracted unfavorably with the total absence of such recognition in State affairs. Among the many appointments to places of honor and emoulment by the Governor not one has gone to a member of the race.
This state of affairs does not make votes for the party. While officeholding is not the chief end of citizenship, it is one of the attributes that goes with it. There is no sound reason why this attribute should be denied to a race that has figured as a faithful and active factor in party success.
The Nashville globe calls for a suspension of judgment in regard to the charges brought against President W. J. Hale of the State Normal School and Prof. H. N. Robinson, coordinator to the ex-service men at the school. It says further:
President Hale and Prof. Robinson have fine records to their credit and have done great work for the men out at the school as well as here in our own community. We are throughout this whole investigation and tailed to see where the government at any time showed or proved an intentional wrong, compulsory or extortion. Every ex-soldier that we heard testify, swore that the money they borrowed, was borrowed of their own will and that no one forced them. They were satisfied with the terms and that President Hale had from time to time discouraged the habit of men borrowing and throwing away their money. He had urged them in public and in private to even open a bank account. Others said that even now they were indebted to President Hale. These men most of them, said they came here with no funds and were glad to have the assistance rendered them. Not one swore on the stand that President Hale had loaned any money since the orders came from Washington, discouraging it.
We trust that a teaching and impartial hearing of the charges will confirm this view expressed of the case.

NEW LYNCHING STATISTICS
When the debate on the Dyer Bill began in the House of Representatives the Southern Congressmen started out all primed with the old argument that lynching was caused by rape and was practiced only as a punishment for rape. Every Southern Congressman who arose to speak on the Bill attempted to impress upon the House that lynching would not stop until rape was abolished. Some of them attempted eloquently to defend this ancient Southern institution by pulling on the tremole stops in their voices and painting heart-rending pictures of white girls of tender age being assaulted and choked to death by "burly black brutes."

But as the debate went on these statements became weaker and weaker, because each time a Southern Congressman made them a supporter of the Bill arose and knocked the argument silly by producing figures which showed that in not one-fourth of the known cases of lynching was there even a charge of rape.
It now appears, from a Southern paper which we have at hand, that some Southerners are going to busy themselves to make some new lynching statistics for use in the fight in the Senate. They realize that the figures they had to go up against in the House knocked both the top and bottom out of their arguments defending lynching. They propose to show that the majority of lynchings are for rape. The newspaper requesting the making of these statistics concludes with the following paragraph:
"A newspaper undertaking to compile such statistics for the State of Georgia could thereby render a tremendous public service, not only to the State but to the entire country; and if some reliable paper in Georgia should undertake to perform such a service, I believe that responsible people in the other States would busy themselves with compiling similar statistics for the presentation to their Senators before the Dyer Bill comes up in the Senate."
In the authoritative data which has been gathered for the last thirty odd years, murder is the charge always in excess of rape. Now, these Southern statisticians are setting out to prove that whenever the charge averred is murder it simply means that the victim who is lynched committed both rape and murder and that, therefore, the murder charge should also be counted as charges of rape.
We, however, do not feel that there is any chance, no matter how clever the statisticians of Dixie may be, of compiling within the next 1e wweeks any lynching tables that will take the place of the authentic figures that have been accumulated and tabulated for the last thirty-five years.
A BIG SUNDAY SHOW.
The Rev. John Roach Stratton has for some time made it a specialty to inveigh against the theatre. In so doing, he has used some pretty harsh terms. Dr. Stratton has at various times treated the stage in his sermons under the following headings: "The Price of Promotion." "The Spider and the Fly." "Masculine Honor Wreckers." Stage Beauties and Millionaires." "Aphrodite and Jesus." The recent occurrences in the movie colony in Hollywood have furnished Dr. Stratton with fresh material for his attacks on the stage, material which he has not delved in using.
On Sunday, a week ago, by announcement, William A. Brady, the theatrical manager, appeared at CalvaryBaptist Church and debated the question of stage morals with Dr. Stratton, the pastor. No show in any of the theatres could have been more dramatic than this warm debate on Sunday afternoon. The church was crowded with the members of the congregation and with members of the theatrical profession. The audience joined in checking the speakers, by applauding and hissing. Dr. Stratton spoke for an hour and a half, it is reported, and made some very serious charges against the theatrical profession. Most of his charges, however, were those of the blind which do not admit of proof.
Dr. Stratton charged that the majority of women who made a success on the stage gained their promotion at the price of their virtue; which is a charge, regardless of its truth or untruth, that is not susceptible of proof.
Mr. Brady, in answering Dr. Stratton, was more specific. He met Dr. Stratton's wholesale charges against the theatre by retort, that:
"I can cite you more crimes, murders and degeneracies perpetrated by ministers of the gospel than by all the theatrical profession. I can prove to you there have been more murders committed by ministers and there are more ministers in jail than stage people. I have court records to prove it."
Here is something that can be substantiated or refuted and we hope that Dr. Stratton will leave generalities long enough to dig out the statistics and see whether or not Mr. Brady's statement that there are more ministers in jail than actors is true or not. We think until he does this that Mr. Brady has sliglitly the better of the debate.

Every generation sees a number of wise men who make it a business of telling people how to live a hundred years or longer. Most of these wise men themselves die before they reach the end of their three score and ten.
But last week out in California there died a Dr. James Martin Peebles, a physician by profession, who began when he was forty years of age telling people how to live a century. He wrote a book entitled "How to Live a Century and Grow Old Gracefully." When Dr. Peebles died he was within forty days of reaching the age of one hundred years, and so we may say that here was one of the wise men who actually made good. Dr. Peebles summed up his method in a few brief rules. He is quoted as saying that his advanced age was due to living in accordance with the following:
To bed every night at 8:30.
Out of bed every morning at 6.
Never use tobacco.
Never use intoxicating liquor.
Never complain.
Avoid worry and keep a harmonious mind.
Have a strong will power.
Always book for the new.
Keep calm.
In addition Dr. Peebles declared he stopped eating meat when he was thirty-nine years of age.
worry about anything and others are so constituted that they worry about everything. It simply depends upon which sort of person one happens to be. Nevertheless, it is true that worry kills more people than work, and it should be banished from the mind as far as it is possible to do so.
On the whole, we think this question of long life and short life is congenial: that is, certain people are born with the elements which make for long life and they live to a great age in spite of themselves and vice versa.

We have often pointed out glish" which Southerners often whenever they tackle the Negro siding this uncomfortable question mouth and then their so-called ravings of maniacs; and sometimes, but often even then the absurd.
We have just had our attest Gainesville (Fla.) "News." The "CAN A NEGRO GUEST" the question, of course, meaning South. The editor then proceed an incident to which he was a the case of a colored man being of murder in the first degree.
The editor of the "News." as good as any other prisoner it was taken before the grand jury pointed as his attorney one of Florida, Colored Robert W. Da lawyer to assist. He further said the jury except he expressed his trial as a white man. He rehears the leading counsel of the accuse the jury "with no haste whatever lawyer still burning in the dinner and then coolly went over.
Now for the conclusion: We editor, himself. Following up the "Nearly two hours later they guilty of first degree murder as hanged. We editor has been present courthouse, but never before conducted by any more fairly as John Bowyer got his verdict."
We fail to see how the result Negro can get as fair a trial in the trial might have been a fair or been any different had the man able. If the editor of the Gaines a Negro being tried at Gaines's first degree and then acquitted by some argument in support of theceive a fair trial in the South.
But this is simply another the Southerner's mind on the Negro.
We have often pointed out in these columns the "reverse English" which Southerners often put on their efforts at reasoning whenever they tackle the Negro question. Sometimes in considering this uncomfortable question they go mad, and troth at the mouth and then their so-called reasonings are no more than the ravings of maniacs; and sometimes they try to be calm and rational, but often even then the conclusions which they reach are absurd.
We have just had our attention called to an editorial in the Gainesville (Fla.) "News." The heading of the editorial is:
"CAN A NEGRO GET A FAIR TRIAL"?
The question, of course, meaning can a Negro get a fair trial in the South. The editor then proceeds to answer the question by citing an incident to which he was an eye and ear witness. He cited the case of a colored man being tried at Gainesville on the charge of murder in the first degree.
The editor of the "News" states that the Negro was treated as good as any other prisoner in Jailer Torlay's custody; that he was taken before the grand jury and indicted; that the judge appointed as his attorney one of the ablest criminal lawyers in all Florida, Colonel Robert W. Davis, and another prominent white lawyer to assist. He further states that no man was accepted on the jury except he expressed his ability to give a Negro as fair trial as a white man. He rehearses the eloquent speech made by the leading counsel of the accused man and relates the fact that the jury "with no haste whatever, but with the words of this eminent lawyer still burning in their ears set down and ate their dinner and then coolly went over the testimony."
Now for the conclusion: We shall give it in the words of the editor, himself. Following up the statement about the jury he said:
"Nearly two hours later they rendered a verdict that Bowyer was guilty of first degree murder and Judge Long sentenced him to be hanged. We editor has been present at lots of trials in the Alachua county courthouse, but never before in his life has he ever been a trial conducted by any more fairly and impartial than the one in which John Bowyer got his verdict."
We fail to see how the result of this trial is any proof that a Negro can get as fair a trial in Florida as a white man. Of course, the trial might have been a fair one, but the verdict could not have been any different had the man received the most unfair trial possible. If the editor of the Gainesville "Never had it in a case of a Negro being tried at Gainesville on a charge of murder in the first degree and then acquitted by a white jury, it would have been some argument in support of the statement that a Negro can receive a fair trial in the South.
But this is simply another example of the reserve action on the Southerner's mind on the Negro question.
The affair, American Presbyterian, published at Charlotte N. C. recently announced that because of Mrs. Johnson C. Smith's large gift to Biddle University for additional buildings, equipment and endowment, the Presbyterian League M. Messias for treasurer has voted unanimously to罢免 the name of the institution for Johnson C. Smith University in memory of the deceased his band of the donor. Mrs. Smith has given to the institution since last September $115,000 for buildings and will also provide a permanent endowment for the running expenses. Sellem has the query "What is in a name?" effectively answered.
Discussing a movement to organize a separate Catholic church, and also a school in Cleveland the Cleveland Call made a strong protest, it follows:
We have not been used to any separate schools in Cleveland and in this high light of civilization we don't intend to get used to it, and if the Negroes of the Catholic Church are not satisfied with that solution they can best go where they can have their want. A disease of the symptom in the same tone age in the city of Cincinnati but there were no anti-burn quitters they to diagnose its cause and so it racked every nerve and thief of the Negroes rights until today Cincinnati is but a little better place for Negroes to live in than the worst city in Mississippi state of Representative Situations.
We are quite willing to have our churches and schools continue as they are, minus any interference from those susceptible to giving vent to their desires without a moment for thought. The idea advanced of a separate school is little less than lunacy, and those who foster it will be the first to feel the lack of their fellow, but whether they be or not, we cannot use it and be helping that we have been well understood.
Separate schools tend to encourage discrimination on account of race, and color and are contrary to the spirit of true democracy. The editor of the call is justified in saying their introduction into a city tree from that form of segregation.
Referring to the failure of President Harding to appoint a Negro as Register of the Treasury, the Minneapolis Messenger extracted this consolation from the situation:
The Messenger holds and proves that it is foolish and futile to expect or advocate the appointment of a Negro to succeed a Negro in every position. This would permit the white element of any party to object to the appointment of Negroes in positions herefore held by white men, and would limit and binder Negro progress. It would confine and classify government positions and leave only certain jobs for the entire race.
This has been true. Mr. Harding has helped the race by changing the custom. Herefore we have had "Black Cahinets" and mulatto diplomats, who have misapplied the dictation of certain Negro appointments and built up within the Black community.

PLEA TO BOYS AND GIRLS.
Editor of Du New York, NY.
Recently I was practicing a common boy of sixteen to learn in high school as it would be of great benefit to him in later years. Since the boy's parents were perfectly willing for him to become educated on a strong basis in reasons for having college he applied that he needed money to buy clothes and spend on the expenses. He is not the first, or only colored boy who tells that same story.
Amongst the girls it is a cry for
clothes. I often wonder if they rea-
tion that these luxuries and fancy only last
a short while.
Today, an illiterate boy or girl is not needed. There are so many methods of gaining an education. If it is not convenient for them to attend day school, certainly they could patronize the evening schools. The evening schools are open for benefit of the unfortunate ones who cannot attend day school. I certainly do wish that every American boy or girl would think for a moment: "What an education means."
I myself am attending evening college
in order that I may continue my edu-
cation. It certainly is not a deter-
mence to my young life, but a gain. I hope
that all of my young readers will read
this.

DRIVE FOR FUNDS FOR
MANASSAS INSTITUTE
The Mamasas Industrial School, located at Mamasas, SA, for the training of colored boys and girls in the fundamentals of education, is engaged in a drive for funds, and a campaign is being conducted in New York City by its representative, Prince L. Edwards. The office continues until March 08.
There is a great variety of schools for colored boys and girls in the north-east part of Virginia, and what education is available is confined mostly to that training which can be provided in one-and-two teacher schools, where each teacher has from four to five different grades assembled in one room. Natural there is an impairment of work, due to lack of proper sanitary provisions.
The Mamasas School was conceived and developed by Miss Jennie Deane, a young colored woman, and started operations in 1892. Miss Deane began her work in a one-room farm house, but today, there are twelve buildings, and the school grounds comprise about two hundred acres. In addition to the academic course beginning at the first grade and continuing through four years of high school, the industrial department offers courses in carpentry, metalworking, blacksmithing, woodworking, dressmaking, basket and hammering. The school also adheres a splendid cultural course.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1922.
By Wm. Pickens
We read in the Virginia papers of yesterday that a white man was sent to the penitentiary for life, he had killed another white man, according to the court, in cold blood, without any provocation, maliciously.
We read in the Virginia papers two or three days ago that a colored boy was electrocuted, in Richmond; he had shot into a crowd of young white men who were attacking him and had killed one of the attackers. They were having a little fun, of course, as "giant fire crackers" on him as he passed along the street. They lit them and hurled them at him, and when one of the great explosives went off under his feet, he fell to the ground. As he rose, he came up shooting and one of his assailants was killed.
We are not pleading either one of these men's cases. We are simply contrasting them, and leaving it to you to think whatever you can think. The white man killed in cold blood, perhaps to steal or revenge himself. The colored boy killed in great excitement and under the surprise of an attack which he could not at once understand. There was no premeditation and no malice apparent. He could not mean to kill this particular person whom he hit, when he fired at his assailants.
There you have it! When we get an anti-lynching bill on the statute books, then we must be eternally busy trying to hinder the court lynchings. The jury condemned this boy quick TO SAVE HIM FROM A LYNCHING.
On the day when he was to be electrocuted in Richmond, the father of the young white man whom he killed and several of their friends journivaled from Fina-tle to the place of execution to "see it well done" true to Southern civilization. We like to see him die down here. What a fine audience we would have made for Nero or Faustine; we would always have turned our souls down" when the victim was down.
twelve of them, including the white father, were burned to death, and others crippled for life. This all happened before the Negro boy was electrocuted. We wonder if he heard about it.

Lord did you know many colored talk think that God is so much more specially if it be the temple community, have made in the way we do. Prohets—White people laugh, 70 groves, and then a flood, a fire and a collapsing theatre take off 170 white people, and the colored folk feel almost satisfied. They feel it to be a sort of compensatory justice. Well, is it And what if it isn't, if you think it is?
It is our own personal belief that some of the white people will meet with calamities, even if we break up their lunchings. There is a greater Power and a higher Intelligence in the universe than Man, even if it isn't murderous and incendiary.

By settling attention to a serial, entitled "From a Negro Historical Writter to Mrs. Anne Denton Nelson, for Florida Gentleman."
Florida people should give particular attention to these stories, for among those whom, the historian, has omitted out of the stories of the period of discoveries and explorations of this state in the long ago were the black men who formed part of the doings of those days. In and around St Augustine, Apalachicola, and Pensacola, St. Marks, and other old settlements in Florida were black men who came to this continent long before the slave vessel landed at Jamestown, Va. Tradition gives quaint and weird stories of those days. Some of the families now in existence were direct descendants of these princes and personal one of the men who have treasured in their landed down by their forebears.
These memories and traditions constitute a mine of literary material, which awaits the exploring talent of a Dunbar or a Chestnut, to bring it to light and polish it into genius of literature. Florida may be the most progressive sons and daughters who will essay the task.

How to present the screen, with that marvellous spirit of fantastic lounge, which Mark Twain conceived in the moving array of a gorgeously colored story-story was the task that confronted the makers of "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court." The result is a vivid realization of the opportunities presented and, as the spectators sit in his chair he is carried from the rich appointments of a luxurious Connecticut home of today back onto the pictured panoply of medieval pump and display. And to him the spectacle of knights in armor, men and ladies in wagons, combat, in tournament, and good in chivalry and valor is presented through the eyes of that daughter-loving, slang-simile, hard-shelled product of twentieth century civilization, the Connecticut Yankee, whose braves, personality, pervades, and dominates the entire scene. The audience root for him tear him, high for him and love him throughout this unique production which will be shown at the Roosevelt Theatre on Thursday and Friday, February 25th and 26th.
JUNIOR SPORTS REGORD
At New Star Casino last Friday, right before a fairly good sized crowd, the Columbia Cubs succeeded in taming those wild and stinging Spartan Hornets to the score of 21-17. All through this sensational game, Columbia practically led. The score at the end of the first half was 140, with Spartan at the small end. Our old friends "Joe" Sister Jackson, and H. C. Parker proved to be as good as ever, not better. Mr. Logan officiated as referee.

The Buffalo Club won two sweeping victories last Friday evening. In the first game the Buffalo Triangles encountered the Murray Hill Separates. When the dust cleared at the end of life, the half the score was 14-5 in the Triangle's favor. During this period of time professional rules were issued. In the second half amateur rules were played. The final score was 14-7.
For the second victory, the Buffalo Juniors triumphed over the Boroes "5" with a score of 52-22. The end of the first half brought out the close score of 14-13 with the Buffalobacks leading on one single point. Well the "Demons could find a much of what, so they take their heads together and make some exciting plays. After more of their good passing the game ended.
Mist. Marks Hall on Friday night, the first "Tigers" bowed to the Alpha Magna with a score on 29-22. Cap. Carrel with his worthy assistants, Nanton, Monroe Grant and Wadel proved too much for the Red and Black boys.
The twentieth annual indoor track meet on DeWitt Clinton High School was held last Saturday afternoon at the Twenty-second Regiment Armory. The games began promptly at 1 o'clock. Hotly contested sprints and distance runs afforded the spectators much enjoyment. DeWitt Clinton won the meet, but the cup went to Subway's school ranking second according to rules. "Happy" Cookie, Clinton's 140 pound wonder and pride, won the 440 lb. default. Throughout the final Cookie held second place, on the last leg the first man soiled the "fabeb" by putting him into Cookie's mom.
"Rally," Golmer failed to win the centuries, although in the semifinals he made the distance in 10 1-5 seconds. In the final, owing to a bad start, he failed to do anything with Hussey the 100 yard champion. It must be remembered that several weeks ago, in the indoor championships, Golmer was leading Hussey, when he fell having pulled a tendon. Handy of Clinton the 220 record holder broke his own record. Miller and Dawkins both of George Washington Evening High took first and second respectively in the "220" for Evening High School.
Charles Major of Clinton won the high jump with ease. It can be noticed that the colored boys of all the High Schools of the city who so in for athletics usually make a good name for themselves.
The St. Mark's Flashes overplanned the Buckeys "5" of the Browns with a score of 35-11 in an interesting game. The visitors seemed to be quite a bit nervous as they missed a large number of trials at the back. The best game of the coming was between the St. Mark's Sparks and the Spartan Waaps. Although this was the preliminary game to the former it was much more interesting. For a while it looked as if the Spartan boys would hit the Sparks with practically everything but the ceiling, the floor being included in the list. But, nevertheless, the Sparks had the better of both halves. The score at the end of the first half was 15-11 in favor of

Under date of February 15th, the Universal Negro Improvement Association issues a statement from its president, Marcus Garvey, in which that special gives what he alleges is the reason for the present investigation by federal authorities. Garvey declares the indispensence of orders and disafford for instructions to officials and causes the trouble. The document, in part, says:

REV. A. A. COSEY RETURNS
FROM TRIP TO AFRICA
Among the passengers on the Olympic, which arrived in New York on Wednesday, February 15th, was Rev. A. A. Coosey of Mound Bayou, Miss, who was returning from a three weeks trip to the West Coast of Africa. Rev. Coosey was one of the members of the excursion party of colored ministers and others of the race who were to have gone to Africa in December. When this party failed to charter a ship, he decided to make the trip alone.
He was a caller at The Age office on Thursday, and reports that he found a great opportunity for economic, educational and religious work among the natives, but it was a question to just how far the European nations who control most of that continent would allow Negroes from other parts of the world to go in helping these people. He stated that he found it very difficult for foreigners to enter the colonies under European control, and that visitors and tourists were closely questioned before they were given passes to enter these countries.
His stay in Africa lasted three weeks, and on his return he visited Paris, London and other European cities. The entire trip lasted over a period of two months. Munday Bayou, where the Rev. Cosey the pastor of the First Baptist Church editor of *The Existence Dispatch*, is the largest Negro town in this country. It is a community of about two thousand inhabitants, and is surrounded by 1000 acres of rich Mississippi farm and owned by Negroes. He reports that the town is making progress, and that the Negroes from the surrounding territory are constantly settling there. He left for his home on Friday, February 17th.

Funeral services were conducted Monday, February 20, 1922 at the Clinton Brooks Chapel by Rev. W. H. Brooks of St. Mark's M. E. Church of which deceased had long been a member.

COL. LITTLE'S PLEA
HELPS 15TH VETERAN
Joaquin Leoqu, who murdered his wife in Harlem last Fall, pleaded guilty to the charge of manslaughter, first degree, which drew a punishment of twenty years to life.
When Joquain, who was a member of Company C, 40th U. S. Infantry (the Old 15th), appeared before Judge Knott in part S. General Sessions, on Friday, February 10th, Colonel Arthur Little, who formerly commanded the 1st Battalion, 40th U. S. Infantry, of which Joquain's company was a part, voluntarily appeared to speak in behalf of the young soldier.
His plea for clementy was so strong, and his statement of the heroic work of the young Harlemite in the battles of the Old Kish so appealing, that Judge Knott complimented the Colonel upon his effort to reclaim one of his former soldiers from the tolls of the law. Judge Knott promised to consider the plea of Col. Little in reaching his decision as to sentence on Joaquin with the result that the sentence imposed was not less than six, nor more than twelve years. Good conduct allowance, plus eight months already served, will give the Hellhighter about three and one half years. Joaquin, who took an important part in the campaign of the South U.S. Infantry, was wounded in the face but was able to take part in the monster never-told forcible parade of the Hellhighters up 5th avenue, on their return from France, although not entirely recovered. Attorney Julius Flood had charge of the case and left nothing undone to bring the case to a successful culmination.

At the weekly meeting of the local minister's union held on Monday afternoon, February 28th, at Metropolitan Baptist Church, Herman Hoffman, one of the council for Luther Boddy, addressed the ministers and told why an appeal was being made for a new trial in his address he paid tribute to the four-mindedness of Judge Wasservogel but said that he thought that an error had been made in permitting the testimony of Policeman Jasper Rhodes, and that it was on this testimony that the conviction had been secured. This information was given the ministers so that their congregations would know why the right would continue.
Other interesting addresses were made by Dr. E. P. Roberts, who spoke on the relation of health and religion, and Dr. George E. Haynes, who told of the program for better inter-racial relations that is being started by the organization itself which he has recently become connected.

Preparations are being made by the McDermough Memorial Hospital Association of New York City to break ground on April 11, 1922, for the creation of a hospital which will be the only one of its kind in the State of New York, and which has been many years in process of development. This hospital will be entirely owned and controlled by the colored people, and its staff and administrative personnel will be composed altogether of members of the race. Under the leadership of Dr. A. S. Clair Jones, the McDermough Memorial Hospital Association, composed of physicians, laymen and auxiliary of women, has at last reached the beginning of actual constructive work on a hospital for the care of Nero patients.
The hospital, originally organized September, 1894, and incorporated June, 1895, was operated for two years, but lack of funds caused a discontinuance of the work. The charter, however, granted, by the State of New York, is for a period of fifty years, and it is under this charter that the present Med-Dougish Memorial Hospital Association is planning to operate the new hospital. The association, through Dr. E. Clair Jones, has issued a statement to the public, giving some pertinent reasons for the building of this hospital. After declaring that the need cannot be seriously questioned by any one acquainted with facts of health, sickness and death records of the race, the statement enumerates reasons as follows for the project:
"1. To patients we point out the fact that poor and defenceless Negroes in hospitals feel themselves not only at the mercies of experimental research, by victims of color prejudice. A hospital of their own will remove all causes, real or fancied, for their fears.
"2. To physicians and surgeons, we point out the very disagreeable and annoying fact that the Negro physicians and surgeons find no opportunity for hospital experience under present conditions. With the great advance in medicine and Surgery, it is necessary that our fittest men be given every opportunity for development. In this way only can skill and technique be acquired by the election of an institution which offers the opportunities now denied our scientists as a class.
"Our purpose, then, is twofold: to look out for the unfortunate sick folk and to afford Negro physicians and surgeons an opportunity to keep abreast

of the times in their profession, and to tender efficient service to the community."
Detailed of the plans announced by the association call for the remodelling of one of the buildings in West 133rd street, now held by the corporation for immediate service as a hospital. As conditions make possible, this will be extended from time to time as necessary. Plans for the remodelling have already been approved by the New York City building department, and the actual construction work is to begin April 1st.
In furtherance of these plans the association arranged for a mass meeting on Friday evening, February 24, at Palace Casino, 15th street and Madison avenue, when some of the most prominent men and women of the city spoke in interest of the project. Among those programed were District Attorney Joab Boston, former Judge of Special Sessions Morris Koenig, Col. William Hayward, former commander of the old 15th N. Y. (300) Infantry, A. E. F.), Acting Mayor Murray Hubert, Bennie Leonard, lightweight champion, Miss Annie Matthews, Register, New York counts, Counselor Joel William Smith, Ferdinand Q. Morton, Charles F. Murphy, Fred R.
