Hearst Men in Los Angeles Attempt to Bulldoze Peavey
Important Figure in Murder Mystery is Inveigled Away by Reporters Posing as Officers From New York
Prosecutor Woolwine Regrets That His Office Has No Jurisdiction and Denounces Action as "Presumptuous, Dangerous and Dastardly"
One of the most prominent motion picture directors in the country, William Dean Taylor, was mysteriously shot and killed under the most mysterious circumstances. The murder was committed in the Taylor bungalow at Los Angeles, Calif., sometime during the night. One of the most important and outstanding figures in the subsequent investigation has been the dead man's Negro servant, Henry Peavey.
Peavey has not, in any way been conspired with the shooting. He was not in the bungalow, as he did not live in the house, but left each night for his own home after his duties were finished. But he has been constantly in cooperation with the authorities in their efforts to solve the mysterious killing, appearing that his attachment to his dead employer, being deeper than is usually the case with employer and employee.
He has been examined by the district attorney on a number of occasions and has freely given all the information he presented as to Taylor's friends and interests, and as to his personal habits.
Returning, he says, the automobile picked up another man at the Alexandra Hotel and then proceeded to the Examiner's office.

Upon arrival at the Examiner office, according to Peavey, "he went in and a gentleman asked me what movie man it was in Hollywood that was paying me to keep my mouth shut, and I looked at him and said:
"Nobody has ever given me a penny for anything excepting this gentleman here, who gave me $10."
But it remained for employees of William Rudman Hearst, editor of the Los Angeles/Ladminer and of the New York American, to engage in what District Attorney Woolwide of Los Angeles characterized as "Presumptions, dangers and dastardly" action. Two men, employees of the American, went to Kroen's room, representing themselves to the officers from New York. They took him away in an automobile and attempted to bully and terrorize him by training him with a "ghost." They took him prisoner for nearly twelve years in the office of Hearst's Los Angeles/Ladminer.
Denouncing the alleged adulductors of Levy as "conscienceless blackguards" who represented themselves to be officers of the law, Mr. Woolwine said, "It is regrettable that the District Attorney has no jurisdiction over the offense committed by these miscreants, adding that if he had such jurisdiction and knew the names of those who committed the offense "they would be in solitude." The energetic demotion of the Lawman's tactics by Mr. Woolwine led a long conference between the District Attorney and William F. E. Ellis, editor of the Lawman, who met Mr. Woolwine's office on the south floor of the Hall of Records. Ellis was preceded in the District Attorney's office by Peavey, who in detail the alleged offences of the Lawman's representatives. Twelve written pages comprise Peavey's account to the District Attorney. He has sent him came to his room before last Sunday and asked him to

Returning, he says, the automobile picked up another man at the Alexandria Hotel and then proceeded to the Examiner's office.
Upon arrival at the Examiner offices, according to Peavley, "we went in and a gentleman asked me what movie man it was in Hollywood that was paying me to keep my mouth shut, and I looked at him and said: "Nobody has ever given me a penny for anything excepting this gentleman here, who gave me $10." This money, Peavley said, was handed to him on his automobile ride Sunday afternoon.
Peavley told the District Attorney that he was kept waiting for some time in the Examiner office and that he asked to be permitted to get something to eat, whereupon he stated, one of the men said: "No, we will send out and buy you some." He described the supper brought into the Examiner for him, and said, that after further questioning he was taken to Hollywood by three Examiner reporters.
He said the Examiner men referred several times to a spiritualist who would, according to his story of their assertion, cause him to talk with Mr. Tayler's spirit.
His remarkable story of the appearance of the Examiner's "Ghost" and the fusion that ensued is taken from the transcript of his testimony on file in Mr. Woolwine's office.
"They drove into the cemetery and said: 'I see, goodness, it makes me nervous to drive into a cemetery at night. How do you feel Henry?'"
"I replied: 'It don't bother me.' They drove up to the vault where Mr. Taylor was lying. They said 'Turn quick.' They turned the car and all the lights went out to make it dark.
"I got out of the car and walked over to the vault and just as I got out there a man walked out from behind the vault with a white sheet over him, and they said: 'Look, look, look, there is Taylor.'"
"I stood and looked at him and he commenced to make some funny noises and dropped down and got me around the feet and commenced grooming. They kept trying to make me run, and I wouldn't run, and said: 'What in hell are you guys trying to make out of me, anyway, a fool?' "
Evanaton Hensera Lincoln-Douglas
(Special to The New York Age).
Evanton, Ill. A Lincoln-Douglas celebration was held here on February 12th at Mount Zion Baptist Church, with Rev. E. P. Jones, president of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated, presiding.
The address was made by Charles S. Morris, Jr., of Norfolk, Va., a student at University of Chicago.
The outstanding feature of the afternoon was the singing of Mme. Capille Cohen Jones of 6540 Lawrence avenue, Chicago. Mme. Jones is formerly of New Orleans, a daughter of Walter L. Coffin, the well-known politician and insurance man. She has a delightful lyric soprano voice and sang a number of songs in French.
The Offends By Approbious Title
against Discrimination and moment of Race Men by "Bring in the Nigger"
The assistant district attorney, on hearing this declaration, promptly, disclaimed any intention of an attempt at discrimination because of color, and declared himself, in view of the court's pronouncement, as willing to go ahead with the trial. Then the bombshell exploded.
"Well, bring in the wigger," said Judge MacMahon, turning to the assistant district attorney, and showing every sign of irritation.
It was impossible for the colored citizens occupying prison in the court room to hide their feelings and the sharp offense they took was plainly evident. And Judge MacMahon saw it and was visibly embarrassed in the break he had made, remembering, this late, that he would name him a candidate before the public for reelection to his present position, and that he would hardly expect the support of a group he had angrily and unwillingly beheaded while clashed in the arena of his household district.

Bonus Supporters Create Disorder at Lyceum Meeting
Col. Little, Speaking at St. Mark's Church, Takes Decided Stand Against Bonus For Veterans—Legionnaires Are Discourteous
Supporters of the proposition that the government vote a bonus to veterans of the late world war used strenuous tactics in their efforts to prevent an expression of opinion in opposition to the bonus idea at the meeting of the Lyceum at St. Mark's M. E. Church, West 53rd street, last Sunday afternoon. A group of white veterans, with a few colored men, created a condition of disorder that threatened danger for a short while, and made it almost impossible for certain of the speakers to make their pro-

Has Worshipped in Crypt For Several Years-Rev E. G. Clifton, Vicar, Announces Order of Services for Lenten Season, With Preachers
John E. Robinson, managing editor of the Amsterdam Navy, is president of St. Mark's Lycum, and he had invited Col. Arthur Little of the 80th N. Y. Infantry, Bidson Herbert G. Shipman, Jill Hedges, Fred R. Moore, Chas W. Anderson and others, to address last Sunday afternoon's meeting. Previous announcements had indicated that the speakers attended opposing the proposed soldiers' bonus, and it was evident that friends of the measure were present for the purpose of disrupting the meeting, if necessary.
John K. Kiernan, state commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, and Harold Zuloul, formerly a state commissioner for the American Legion, made themselves conspicuous during the meeting, and by dint of insistent demands, secured permission to speak each for eight minutes. Both took advantage of the course, bolstered by the demands of their followers, and spoke for many more than eight minutes. This intrusion upon the regular program presented consideration of resolutions which had been prepared, as the time, limit allowed by church to the Lycum, had expired before action could be taken.
Patriotism Cannot Be Bribed
The principal address was made by Col. Little, who took as his topic "Hypocrisy." Bishop Shipman, in declaring his opposition to the bonus, declared that patriotism cannot be hindered or bought with money. The wounded and insulted should receive the ampleest care and protection, but it is impossible to measure spiritual service, such as was given by citizens who answered the call of duty, with money.
"Fred R. Moore, editor of The Ace, spoke in opposition to the bonus measure, as did Charles W. Anderson and Alderman G. W. Harris. Job E. Hedges was the last speaker, and he denounced the bonus idea as financially unbound. In speaking to his subject, "Hypocrisy," Col. Little declared that, speaking the language of high purpose and concealing dangers to our national welfare, hypocrisy was "citing to seduce the sober judgement of patriotism in terms of money reward." He referred to attending an important assemblage of business men a few weeks ago to speak on the subject, "To change the great colored population of the City of New York from a liability into an asset."
St. David's Church To Complete
Has Worshipped in Crypt
E. G. Clifton, Vicar, Ann
vices for Lenten Season
After a conference on Monday morning with Suffraging Bishop Herbert G. Shipman, the Rev. Dr. Edward George Clifton, vicar of St. David's P. E. Church, 304 East 106th street, The Bronx, New York City, makes the definite statement that construction work for the completion of the church edifice will be started immediately after Easter Sunday, April 10th. Contracts are to be signed this week.
For a number of years the congregation has been worshipping in the crypt, the only part of the building erected, but now the superstructure will be added. The proposed addition to cost not more than $20,000 is stated by Dr. Clifton that the necessary money is in hand for this work, and it will be pushed to rapid completion immediately that the church building is formulated, a campaign will be moved for funds with which to create a parish building on a lot reserved.
right from the opening sentence," said Col. Little. "I refused to admit that the colored race was a Hability. My ambition of public service runs along the line of desiring to help make the colored citizens of New York, as an asset, into a better asset. It is not a sensational as the other idea; but it is just as constructive."
Serving the Race.
Continuing, Col. Little said, in part: "Friends—this country is playing with matches. Some of our leaders through timidity and hypocrisy have already burn up a lot of our assets—assets secured by the blood of our forefathers—the assets called liberty."
"For a year and two months I have been at your call to serve the interests of the colored race. I have succeeded. I continued in both Past."

Serving the Race
TO OPEN SCHOOL FOR ASPIRING TEACHERS
Members of the race who are aspirants for places as teachers in the public schools of the City of New York are not always familiar with what is necessary to the procuring of these positions. Some are not able to pass the required examinations and others, amply qualified, do not know how they can do it. To render assistance in this particular, Howard Day, head teacher, Department of English, P. S. 89, Manhattan, is starting what he calls "A Helping School," to be conducted on Thursday and Friday evenings, for the purpose of helping those who are deficient in English, grammar, algebra, geometry, Spanish, and other subjects. The session will be held at P. S. 89.
A feature of this effort will be the giving of a course for the Regents' examination, and attention will be paid children backward in elementary branches. Special facilities and conveniences will be provided for courses in photography and toewriting and in preparation for the civil service examination. Mr. Day announces that the fees are made very low so that the children may be afforded every advantage, and a correspondingly low tuition will be fixed for adults. The faculty will be made up of teachers from the public school system, teaching daily under supervision of the Board of Education, and from the College of the City of New York, Columbia University, Hefley Institute of Brooklyn, University of Pennsylvania and Rutgers College.
A number of women, qualified to teach in the public school system, have been helped by Mr. Day and he is now form a coaching class for applicants for the June examinations. This class is to meet on Saturday, March 4th, at the Y. W. C. A., West 137th street, for organization. Mr. Day invites those who seek information to attend this class and promises to tell them how girls of the other race from outside the city get into the system as Teachers.
SUBDEN DEATH OF REV. MURRAY AT NEWPORT
(Special To The New York Age).
Newport, R.I. - The Res. Dr. Abraham Lincoln Murray, pastor Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church, this city, died suddenly Friday night, February 24th from heart failure, possibly caused by indigestion. Dr. Murray had returned from Buffalo in apparent good health, but ten minutes after reaching home he was strenched and died, sitting in a chair, before medical assistance could be given him.
Dr. Murray was one of the prominent ministers of the A. M. E. connection, and came here from Jackson, Miss, where he had enjoyed a successful pastorate for two or three years. Prior to going to Mississippi, he was a leading member of the New Jersey conference, his last pastorate in that state being at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Jersey City, where he was stationed for several years. He was in his second year at Newport. He had recently returned from attending the tricouncil of bishops at Montgomery, Ala.
He was born in Michigan and is survived by a widow and foster daughter.
The Jewish Relief Fund.
A special appeal is being made by Miss Anna Weil of the Jewish Relief Fund Elying Squadron to Harlemlegs for assistance in the $5,000,000 campaign now being carried on.
It is noteworthy that there are no more liberal givers to funds for other peoples than the Hebrews, and it is believed that colored Harlem will keep this in mind and contribute as largely as possible to Miss Weil and other co-workers for this fund which is to aid children in war-streken regions of Europe.
avenue, 134th-135th streets, Dr. J. M. Ross, principal, was awarded first prize in the Chamber of Commerce composition contest.
The boys were required to write compositions upon the subject, "The essential qualities of the man who makes good," the first prize being $10 in gold. Every school in Greater New York entered the contest, hundreds of compositions being submitted. Miss Frederica Rogert is teacher of the class to which James White belongs.
This is not the first city-wide honor won by a Negro pupil from P. S. 89. McDonald Miller, of 28 West 130th street, now a student at Stuyvesant high school, while a member of the 7-B class at P. S. 89. Howard Day, teacher, won first prize in a contest which covered the school district, the subject being "Peter Cooper"—(founder of Cooper, Union).
The principal of P. S. 89, Dr. Ross, through his interest in the older boys, has succeeded in retaining a larger proportion of them than usual to the graduating point, and as a result, there are now two graduating classes—grade 8-B with some sixty to seventy prospective graduates. According to available records, this is the largest number of pupils ever sent out as graduates from P. S. 89.
That Dr. Ross does not confine his interest in the boys to the school room, is evidenced by that fact that he is not engaged in cooperation with his teachers in organizing a drive in interest of the Boys Welfare Association, which has a club house at 4 and a West Bluestreet. The interest already shown indicates that the teachers and pupils will follow the drive a universe.

Americus, Ga.—The law-abiding white citizens of Schley county, in which Americus is located, are up in arms and demanding the removal of Sheriff R. E. Battle on charges of neglect of duty, in connection with his failure to promptly serve warrants and put under arrest men named, by the coronor's jury as being implicated in the recent lynching, of Will Jones, a thrifty Negib farmer and good citizen, who lived at Ellaville, about twelve miles out from Americus.
The lynching, of Jones occurred at La Cross, another small town, where Jones had taken refuge in the home of his uncle, Tick Hart. Jones' standing in the community was of the best, and the mob action which resulted in his death has caused intense indignation. After being wound wounded and before he died, Jones made a statement to County Commissioner Williamop and Mayor Williams, giving the names of several well-known men as having taken part in the attack on him, and as a result of this information, Coroner H. U. Riggs, issued warrants for the arrest of four of nine men named, and these warrants were put into the sheriff's hands for execution Laetr, warrants were issued for the other men.
The sheriff's motion is shown in a statement printed in bold face on front page of the Americus Times Recorder, the leading afternoon daily in which it paid.
was also wounded slightly more seriously than DeVane.
"Sheriff Battle, although knowing the details of the lynching, or at least most of them, and having brought the dying Negro to jail, did not attend the impost, at the courthouse, but his deputy, Bailliff Carter, attended instead. The members of the mob appeared on the streets of Ellaville before the lynching and afterward with guns strapped on them openly and were not molested."
Assisted Men To Escape.
It is charged by the Times-Recorder, in the same article, that not only did Sheriff Battle fail in his duty in connection with making arrests, but that he is seriously suspected of having assisted some of the men to escape for whom he had warrants charging them with murder. These allegations are
Dismouncing The Sheriff.
The indignation of the citizens against the sheriff results from the following allegations, given by citizens to the Times-Recorder: It was more than two hours after he was gifted of the last shooting of the Negro Jones that Sheriff Battle would make any effort to proceed to the scene and discover what had happened: "Walrants for four of the nine accused men were issued by the counter Monday afternoon, three of them being two soldiers, who were strangers in the Community, and George Phillips. No attempt was made to serve them that day or night, and the two soldiers remained in the neighborhood of the lynching, where they had been" camped for several days; until 8 or 9 o'clock Tuesday morning, when they started for the elephant, termoshrill 100 cm wwpjptETMOIN Phillips was also seen Tuesday morning.
Tuesday afternoon, with warrants for the arrest of Arthur, Bennie and John DeVane in his pocket, Sheriff Battle was seen to engage their father, Joe DeVane, a farmer, in earnest conversation for some time in an Ellaville garage before having made any attempt, to serve the warrants. In fact, no visit to the DeVane homes was made until Thursday, it is said, the sheriff going to the home of Bennie DeVane, who was wounded and finding him there, where he had been all the time and placing him under arrest, and also placing a guard over Henry Harvey another of the accused, who

Dr. Wallace Battle, President Okolona School, Declares That in Problems Affecting Real Life of People, Church Follows Politicians
Okolona, Miss.-Dr. Wallace A. Battle, president of the Okolona Industrial School, declares that the church is a coward, and that in problems affecting the real life and pocket books of the people it follows after the politicians. This allegation was contained in a letter addressed to Dr. Charles F. Dole of Boston, and was called forth by Dr. Dole's letter on "Real Disarmament," published in Christian Work of New York City. Adverse comment on the position taken by Dr. Dole impelled Dr. Battle to come to the Boston man's defense.
In reference to the lynching question, Dr. Battle declared that "Lynching in the United States pays no more attention to the church than to a mosquito. The politicians, however, are now making the nation 'sit up and take notice' with reference to this blot upon our national life. The church cannot expect to keep its prestige by following in the moral wake of politicians and governmental authorities. If the church will not lead and cannot lead upon moral issues, it seems to me there is very little work for it to do.
I note that the editors of Christian Work accuse you of the doctrine of man-resistance," a doctrine preached by
Tackling Holl-Fire Problems
With reference to the church, Dr. Battle wrote of follows:
"The truth is the church is a coward. It seldom makes the first attack upon stubborn problems. It touches the real life and pocketbooks of the people; it prefers to tackle a hell-free problem—a problem that is entirely out of sight and does not at all affect human action here and now. Honest politicians will sooner attack knotty problems than the church. Politics must the attack upon slavery. The church followed and won the first to go to jail."

The members of the mob appeared on the streets of Flailay before the lynching and afterward with guns strapped on them openly and were not molested."
Assisted Men To Escape
It is charged by the Times-Recorder, in the same article, that not only did Sheriff Battle fail in his duty in connection with making arrests, but that he is seriously suspected of having assisted some of the men to escape for whom he had warrants charging them with murder. These allegations are being openly made by citizens of Elkaville, representing both town and country. It is predicted that the grand jury at April term of the Supreme Court will take steps looking to have the sheriff ousted from his office. This can only be done through trial he fore a jury in the Superior Court, under the laws of the State of Georgia. The story leading up to the killing of Jones, indicates that he became the victim of men who were already engaged in violating the law through inattentive and illicit handling of liquor. Will Jones, thrills, honest, intelligent and industrious, did not approve of the liquor traffic, and was suspected by the DeVane, and others of giving out information that was dangerous to their safety.
Jones lived on a farm occupied by Bennie DeVane's mother-in-law, and was in bed on a Sunday night when some one knocked at his door, pretending to want to borrow an auto tire patch. Not getting Jones to the door, the request was made for a lantern, then for matches, and finally, when these failed to bring Jones out, he was informed that he was wanted and demand was made that he come out. Naturally, he refused. Several men then attempted to force an entrance by way of the front door. Knowing that the door would soon give way, Jones grabbed his single-barrelled shot gun and ran out the back door.

But two of the men, anticipating this move, had stationed themselves there, Henry Harvey on one side and Bennie DeVane on the other. As he ran out these men fired, wounding Jones severely that physicians declared after-

What We Have Done!"
"The liquor problem was solved through politics while the church stood by and saw home after home, and, indeed, much of the nation, in ruins.
Lynchera Ignore Church.
"Lynching in the United States press no more attention to the church than to mosquito. The politicians, however, are now making the nation sit up and take notice with reference to this blot upon our national life. The church cannot expect to keep its prestige by following in the moral wake of politicians and governmental authorities. If the church will not lead and cannot lead upon moral issues, it seems to me there is very little work for it to do.
I note that the editors of Christian Work accuse you of the doctrine of 'non-resistance', a doctrine preached by Jesus. The doctrine of non-resistance will always seem foolish if the church fails to lead in making the attack on evils; and it is no less true of the church Can of the individual that Whosever will save his life, shall lose it; and whoever will lose his life for My sake shall find it.
If the preacher of the United States would unitedly preach against any evil whitheaver, that evil would disappear and no armed resistance would be necessary, but without some such moral force, we shall find ourselves fighting evil with evil, spending our billions for armaments and fighting with humans and animals."
A Race Woman and Her Work in Florida
In a three-room log cabin on a rice farm—about three miles from Mayesville, S. C., Mary McLeod Bethune was born of slave parents and has literally lifted herself by her own bootstraps to a position of distinguished service to her race and to humanity. Through a scholarship given her by Miss Mary Christman, a white dressmaker of Denver, Colorado, Mrs. Bethune was given the opportunity for an education. After a few years in the little mission school near her home, Mrs. Bethune's education was continued at Scotia Seminary, Concord, N. C., and Moody Bible Training School, Chicago. Several years were spent in teaching in South Carolina, Georgia and Palatka, Fla. In each place interesting accounts are given of her original methods of work in the class-room and in the community.
She had not, however, found the work of which she had dreamed, even as she picked cotton in the fields of South Carolina, or sat among her, seventeen brothers and sisters before the open fire in her bare cabin home. Urged, therefore, by an irresistible impulse, prompted, doubtless, by the knowledge that many of the Negro girls of the East Coast were sadly neglected, because their parents were committed to the care of the tourists, in whose service sufficient money must be earned during the winter to provide for their families for the entire year, she made her way to Daytona, that stranger city, without money or friends—misunderstood by both races, the whites who thought she was "spilling the girls" and her own people who claimed that she was "only teaching the girls to work,"—her lot was truly a hard one.
Nevertheless, she went steadily forward, gathering in the little girls, only five at first, from turpentine camps, and the neighboring homes. Often the procuring of grits and bread for the little girls was a real problem. (Once a colored merchant refused to give her credit for a little meal and bacon from Saturday to Monday. The story of these days is truly pathetic). There were times when with paste-board in her almost solemn shoes she went from door to door, seeking aid to keep the doors of her little school open; but not once was she disconcerted. Said a white visitor in these early days. The courage, common sense and high faith of the woman, enmiled with advanced education and the absolute cleanliness of the humble little place completely captivated all who had any interest in educational matters, and several of us at her urgent request became members of her advisory board.
From this humble beginning this brave woman has built up a flourishing institution. The twenty acres of terrace land and seven buildings, of which two are well equipped brick structures, are conservatively valued at $150,000, with no indebtedness.
Of far greater value to the race and county than any material results are those which cannot be measured. Hundreds of girls here receive training in grammar and normal school courses and in gardening, domestic science, domestic art and home crafts. Many of them have made notable improvement in the communities in which they live.
Fifty-seven young women have completed the full high school course. Two have served as local demonstration agents in canning, home crafts, etc., in the state and seven are teachers in the state and schools. Trained nurses have been sent out from the Meckel Hospital, founded by Mrs. Bethune in 1911, and are rendering good service in both white and colored homes, and in hospitals.
Five upon graduation from our high school entered college-three at Tal-ti-gea College, two at Fisk University and age reported as doing excellent work.
A boy's center has been established in which the boys and young men of the community are helped by means of Better Boys' Clubs, industrial classes, lectures, etc., the only effort made in this section to prevent idleness and offset the lure of the street corners.
Better homes, gardens and farms are found in the entire county as a result of the county conferences; adults' com-
There has been an awakening of the Negroes of the section, both men and women, to a realization that within themselves the possibilities of making strong, useful, desirable citizens, that to this end they must not only be consumers, but producers as well. Mrs. Bethune says: "Our aim is the rounding out of a model institution that will stand for training in the practical things of life, fountain to which the untrained, unqualified you'n may go to drink, a practical training school whose mission it shall be to fit the youth of the race for usefulness, for ideal American citizenship."
ENDOWMENT NEEDED.
Continuing, this earns woman who is being recognized as a leader in educational and social service work, makes the following:
"Direct, Personal Appeal to Men: Women and Children of the Era."
"My friends, I want to appeal to you to stand by me in the work that I am doing here for the race. I feel the need of your support in a way that I cannot express to you.
My years ago, under God, I joined this tremendous job. I have given my heart to it. My vision has materialized. The institution is here. My white friends have stood by me like a stone wall in bringing the plant to its greatest efficiency. They are willing to continue to stand by us, but they are asking, 'What are the Negroes doing for the work?'
There is a growing and insistent demand that our people should as far as possible help themselves. Self-help, self-support, is the cry of the hour! I believe that my people are able and willing to undertake more largely for themselves than they have done hereto. The task is too great for me, alone. need you! I have turned this plant of my soul! God has permitted me to express myself here. I am giving my sense of my strength to the task life I hire and I have asked for $25. insurance on my own life as an investment for the institution, that will keep things going when I shall be ground up to the other shore.
want that the premiums should be kept up yearly, by the teachers, students and Negro friends of this institution.
"With this end in view, our teachers and students are putting on a campaign for $5,000, by March 15th, and we are asking every Negro man, woman or child to send us at least $1 by this time."

LAND-GRANT COLLEGE MEN HOLD A MEETING
(Special to The New York Age).
Nashville, Tenn.-The outstanding need of the land-grant colleges for colored people is a supply of trained teachers—teachers in agriculture and the mechanic arts—teachers who can uphold high standards and give their pupils high those pupils need. Last week the Nashville meeting of the heads and other representatives of the colored land-grant colleges, called and presided over by Dr. John J. Tigert of Washington, D. C., U. S. Commissioner of Education.
J. B. Brown, State superintendent of public instruction for Tennessee, in his address of welcome, expressed the greetings and interest of Gov. Alfred A. Taylor. He stated that 101,000 Negro children in Tennessee are 100,000 who are of school age, are enrolled in school.
Obligations of the Schools.
Dr. A. C. True, director of the States Relations Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture, stated that it is important that the Negro colleges should get a correct idea of their obligations to the people whom they serve, since their work is one phase of a worldwide educational movement for vocational education.
"There are still compacitively few good institutions for vocational training" declared Dr. True. "As long as industries were simple and labor was both cheap and abundant, there was comparatively little progress or need of skilled workers. With the application of science to industry, however, there has come a change. The human element in industries is now tremendously important, and we cannot have prosperous industrial communities without trained workers.
Vocational education is not narrow: it must include the principles and fundamentals of the business and its relations to community life.
Nego Farmers Are Assets
"There are 225,000 Negro farmers, in the United States, of 15 per cent of the total number of farmers. Over 70,000 of these Negro farmers are tenant farmers or operators. There are about 200 Negro farmers who are put down as managers. There are about 28,000 Negro farm owners. In the case of the Negro farm operators, the land and buildings are valued at two and one quarter billion dollars.
"There are about 160 Negro farm demonstration agents and about eighty home demonstration agents who are working under the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. There are also two Negro special agents.
"The U.S. Department of Agriculture would like to devise the work further. Yet even if the Congress should give us a larger fund for this purpose, our greatest difficulty would be to find people with the requisite training and experience. Therefore, the land grant colleges should try to turn them out." They need more money for the purpose.
Institutions Win Support
In 1900 three white and one black normal schools were established in Tennessee. The first year $15,000 were given to Tennessee for its colored land-grant land. The last year $55,000 were given and in addition $70,000 were given for houses.
Negro Education Pays Divi ends.
The first year $10,000 were appropriated for Southern University, Baton Rouge, La. The last Legislature appropriated $267,000 for the University and $800,000 for a school for the Negro blind which has been built on the Southern University campus. Today 1,000 colored people on this university homes in the Southern University. The general chairman was 4. B Brown, and the general secretary was Dr John M. Gandy, president Saide Normal School, Petersburg, Va.
1.923 Rosenwald Schools.
The Conference sent a resolution of amelioration to Italian Rosenwald of Chicago for interest and cooperation in the rural school lunch campaign which is going on throughout the South. Today, there are 1,223 Rosenwald schools, with a teacher capacity of 2,422.伙业 a total cost of $10,129.25 which is being contributed as follows. Negroes, $1,190.16; whites, $277.68; public funds, $1,840.210; and Rosenwald aid, $255.890.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, MARCH 4, 1922.
(Statement submitted by WILLIAM BICKENS at hearing before Commissioner David Hirschfeld, on February 20th, 1922, concerning histories in use in the public schools, and their unfair treatment of the record of the Negro in the United States).
It is said that history is "lies agreed upon." And while we are not willing to agree that all history is "lies," we know that it is whatever is agreed upon in any age and country. The myths were once accepted as history.
While the Negro is one of the great facts in American history, he has been almost completely excluded from authentic and credited history, because the writers of history have not agreed to tell his story. The absence of the Negro's story from the school histories is an especial misfortune, for it robs us of a sound basis on which we could build better relationships between White and colored Americans. If the little white boy sitting in his seat at school could learn that the first man to tackle in the struggle for American independence was a Negro; that during the War of Revolution one state had a Negro regiment (Rhode Island); that Negro troops were among the soldiers of George Washington; that Negroes served with credit and honor in all the history of the Republic; then that little white boy would have a feeling that the little colored boy over in the next seat had a right to be there; and even this colored boy, if he read of how his ancestors toiled and suffered with the ancestors of that little white boy, would have a feeling that he too, is to be a comrade of that little white boy in the further struggle of civilization. Surely these thoughts and feelings would be of some advantage to those two boys.
Misleading Statements
Sometimes there are misleading statements and falsely insinuating contexts in these histories, but their greatest sin in reference to the 'Negro is their OMISSIONS. They speak, of the Revolutionary War, and mention Paul Bevere but do not mention Crispus Attacks; they mention the French but not the black troops who fought by the side of the white Colonials. In the War of 1812 they forget, the blacks on Lake Erie, at New Orleans and in Baltimore. They tell of the Civil War and only tell that the Negro was the cause of it, but do not tell that 40,000 black men were very important, it indeed not absolutely necessary, in the right settlement of it. In the Spanish-American War story they tell of the Rouge Riders, and do not tell of the black regulars who saved these Riders from destruction. Will they write of the World War without mentioning the famous Negro regiment from New York for the important and dangerous positions bravely held by the 29th Division?
One of the chief difficulties about the making of our school histories is that they are almost all written by individuals, and individuals always have dominating prejudices. Some of the histories are therefore pro-British, or Anti-French, or "Southern" or "Nothern" and almost all of them are silent on the honorable achievements of the Negro. The only remedy we can propose for making our histories written or selected and revised by Written SION representing, not so much the various prejudices, as the various SOURCES of intimate knowledge. A great deal of the trouble is not due merely to prejudiced sources but also to inadequate sources of knowledge, or inadequate sympathies to understand and interpret other groups or races or nationalities.
Capital N for Negro
We have examined some of the histories used in Public Schools 89 and 119. Some of them capitalize the word Negro, is grammatically and otherwise correct, but some write Negro with a little bit. This cannot be detained in common grammar, for whatsoever it has been the original meaning of the term Negro it becomes a proper noun when used to designate a race of mankind. Even if it it were not otherwise a proper noun, it is certainly an indefinite selection of English to coordinate it with proper nouns and then not capitalize it. And yet we have seen written together in the same sentence, in perfect co-ordination, the words Indian, Malay, Mongolian, Caucasian, and Negro, and the word Negro being the only radical name not capitalized. Some say: Weil, white is not capitalized. But the word white man is not co-ordinate with Negro. But the words black and colored should be written like the word white, but the word Negro should be written like the words Indian, Mongolian, Caucasian. Negro is not the opposite of white, it is the co-ordinate of Indian or Caucasian.
Why, then, is the word Nekro written as a common noun in some histories and certain journals? It is a quiet tait of propaganda, which began in the days of slavery, in an effort to make Nekroes seem like other chattels; mules, vegetables and acres. Before the Negro was written, his racial name was written with a capital M; after fifty years of freedom, the "lower case" letter, stamped on by chattelism, has persisted in defiance of grammar and commonness.
An Apology for Slavery
"Gordy's Elementary History of the United States" which seems to be used in grade 6 where most children learn all they know about history and unit school, and in one of the schools of Harlem, in which the great majority of the pupils are Negro, wells the word Negro with a small "m" on the very first page, the third page, and consistently throughout. This little book is an effective apology for slavery and for the subsequent treatment of the Negro. It makes Harriet Beecher Stowe out to be a falsifier. "There is no doubt that in the author's strong desire to paint vividly the inhuman treatment of the slaves, she did not give a true picture of slavery in all its phases." This is in spite of the fact that she could not possibly give "all of its phases" but did tell the truth about one and a most important one of its phases: the inhuman happened to the Negro in Georgia in 1919, 1920 and 1921 in the book which Mrs. Stowe describes in the book, "Uncle Tom's Cabin"—even fifty years after the power of slavery has been broken. On page three Gordy's little book very shewly makes out that cruelty to slaves was the rare exception, while as a fact kindness was the exception.
And this book tells the story of Abolitionism and mountain Garrison.
Phillips, without any, mention of the black orator and agitator Freedick Douglas, who was to these other two men like a "third twin," so to speak—And it is said, for the sake of brevity ("John") Brown was tried for murder and treason, was convicted and hanged," without indicating that he was tried by Virginia, by the slave-holding power, when even the National administration was controlled by that power. An important question may have the same effect as a misstatement of fact. The half truth is often more dangerous than direct contradiction of fact, for it spurs on imagination which is very unreliable.
Cordy's Misstatements.
An apologetic tone is very effective. On page 5 of this history by Gordy we read: "Of course, this made the South very angry," when slaves were helped to escape to Canada and freedom. And on page 6 it is: "Of course the Southern leaders were just as eager to kill Kansas with men who would cast their vote for slavery."—as were others to get votes for freedom. There was no moral issue involved—these were simply matters of courses." On page 14 it is merely remarked that "Buchanan was weak," and there is no indication that he was the traitor which he undoubtedly was, for allowing secession to get a good start before Lincoln could be inaugurated. On page 15 Beaugrand and his overwhelming force of Confederates, who from their position of absolute control pushed down Fort Sumner about the Ready, to set fire to it, are pictured as generous and gallant that "admiring the courage of this handful of men" they "allowed them to escape, bearing their arms," without any indication that the chief aim of the attack was to drive these men out, and that United States ships were in sight at the time to seize and save the garrison.
We do not know whether Gorley wants to teach American youth that it was and is right to disfrumming Negro citizens and mob them from the polls, but it we wanted to impress that on the minds of children, we could not do better than this: On page 45 et seq. after telling how President Andrew Johnson, who was exposed to allowing colored folk to vote, "was found not guilty" of breaking the law which he broke, the account goes on.
"Congress, however, had we way in passing laws which gave the negroes the right to vote, and which to stay away from Congress, the leader the power of voting. This means that leading men in the South could have no voice in making laws, while the most ignorant freedman could. Of courses, the Southern people slowly opposed these measures, and tried to prevent the negroes from voting. When they could not persuade or bride them to stay away from the polls, they would sometimes frighten or whip them, and in the worst case even murder negro leaders.
"On the other hand, the negroes were pounded by two classes of white men. Some came from the North and were called carpet-laggers, and others were of the South and were called scalawags. For the most part the negroes were under the control of these white leaders; many of whom seemed to care very little for the public good. These men were seeking more personal power and wealth. There was a great disorder. Bad laws were passed, and heavy taxes were laid. Many State debts were made very large.
"But after a few years the Confederate leaders were given the right to vote. They at once got control of affairs, and things were soon in much better condition. Schools were established for the negroes, and it is hoped that education will make the freedom able to take care of themselves."
The Truth About Congress.
The truth is not told that Congress was not aiming to put ignorance in the lead but only to make sure of establishing loyal state governments in the South, that many of the late Confederate leaders were irreconcilably disloyal and that the Reconstruction South was not opposed to ignorance at the polls, for many ignorant white men could vote, but were opposed to the enfranchisement of Negroes as Negroes "Bad laws were passed" by the Negroes and their white friends, but nothing is said of the many good laws which were passed for the first time in the South's history. And it is beautifully said that "Schools were established for the Negroes." But it is not said that Negro votes made the first public school systems in the South and gave its poor whites their first chance for free education. And although the American Negro has been taking care of himself against herестest opposition and greatest odds for over half a century, Gorly only finds that even in 1920 it is merely "honored that education will make the freedmen able to take care of themselves." And nearly all the freedmen were dead in 1920. So there will be only Negro freedmen left in these United States.
We do not object to this cow-towning to a lost cause. But we know that the insinination of false ideas into the minds of the young respecting the history and character of a great race, is a dangerous foundation in this country. And especially are the GREAT OMISSIONS in the Negro's true story robbing us of a platform on which we can build a lasting interracial harmony and peace.
We cast our vote for history by commission.
Addenda to Statement on 'The Negro in American History'
One teacher in the schools of Greater New York writes that a history of the United States by Emerson David Fitz, published by Henry Holl and Company, contains an objectionable cartoon on page 97. The teacher says: "I was able to look over one history in our High School, and although the text was far from being objectionable, there is a repetition of a most objectionable cartoon from 'Vanity. Fair'—showing a lousily dressed Negro, holding a glass of beer or ale in his hand laughing while far away in a railroad march."

*(Special to The New York Age) Denmark, S. C.—A "Red Letter Day" for *Voyeurism* School and Hamburg county generally was marked by the 12th annual session of the Voyeurism Farmers' Conference, which was held in the Institute Chapel and which was a record breaker. Several hundred men and women representing this and other counties were in attendance, among whom were ministers, teachers, etc., and a large number of *farmers* and Lobbyists.
Mayor Thomas of Bamberg was presented to the audience by Collaboration Jenkins, and after welcoming all the visitors to Bamberg county and to Voorhees, he praised the excellent work which the school is doing in all of its departments, plating special emphasis on the unselfish service which the hospital department is rendering. He also gave the farmers some helpful information. Mr. Folk, white, of Bamberg, also spoke helpfully and encouragingly. H. D. Calhoun, brother of Barnwell, and one of the tried and true friends to the colored race, delivered a clearent, forceful and inspiring address, plessively interpersed by anecdotes and pleasant entries.
The special order for the afternoon session was the address by Dr. George W. Carver of Tuskegee. After reviewing and emphasizing the remarkable possibilities of the sweet potato and peanut and speaking briefly of the more than a hundred products which he had developed from each of these plants, the speaker told of the benevolence of the coming of the holl weevil to the Southland, and urged the farmers to arise and meet the issue as men. He advanced helpful ideas on the new epoch which the war brought to us, and showed how the farmers can and will succeed if they will let down their buckets where they are and just not brain and brawn into their farm activities.
Launching out on his subject "Another great money crop for the South," Dr. Carter introduced the peanut. He pointed out the advantages and benefits to be derived from peanut growing, and stated that the soil there is well adapted to the peanut, after which he exhibited some thirty or more products which he has recently developed from the peanut, including the hull and shell. In this exhibit were oils, sauce, soaps, fertilizer, stock feed, relishes and other products.
He emphasized the fact that the potato, the peanut and the peanut, is properly cultivated and developed will constitute agricultural conditions in the S. mund.
A number of white friends made remarks, all of whom commended Viviers for the splendid work which it is doing, and with one actor they endorsed Dr. Carver's address. Among those to speak were Rev. Friar of the white Baptist church, Rev. Williams of the white McCarthy church, Captain Guess Mr. Goldby and Mr. Carrars. The closing speech was made by the Rev. C.R. Brown of Florence, a lead-

They will welcome the Rev. T. S. Harten who is considered the most successful Evangelist in the Colored Race. He has been conducting the greatest campaign in the City of Brooklyn ever known. Over 500 Souls were saved, and crowds have flocked to hear him.
The general interest felt by groups of thinking persons in various walks of life in the question of the education for and the selection of suitable and wise choices of work is voiced everywhere and then by some one who demands that action be taken to bring about better adjustment. A letter published in a recent issue of *The New York Accurge* the Negro youth to enter the business occupations in greater numbers and ease overcoming the professions. The advice is timely and indicates that the public, outside of those persons directly connected with the work of cating a youth, will be interested to know that systematic work is being done, right here in Harlem, toward the end of which he speaks.
The science of systematically helping a study himself, his aptitudes or lack of them, the educational facilities at his school for the development of his special talents, together with the study of the fields of occupation for which he may prepare is known as vocational guidance.
Just such work has been systematically carried on in P. S. 119, in Laredo street, for nearly three years. At first it was privately financed by the Henry Street Committee which maintained Vocational College Bureaus in six schools, located in various parts of the city. After one year the Board of Education decided to take over the work and has continued the work. In June 1921, the work was extended to P. S. 90, and P. S. 5, both of which are boys' schools. The work has been administered by Mrs. G. E. McDonald, a teacher who combines that experience with work in the placement and employment world. The work of the Vocational Guidance Bureau proceeds as follows: Each child, over fourteen years, and in the 6th, 7th, and 8th years, fills out a questionnaire, which asks him many questions about the ideas and plans for future education and location. In many instances this questionnaire starts the child on his first thoughtful planning of his future. It also serves to disclose many problems, economically, socially, financially. Everything is done by the
ing minister of the M. E. Church, Mrs. A. S. Steele (white) of Chattanooga, Tenn., a trustee of the school, whose efforts and influence were largely responsible for its founding, made some interesting and helpful remarks. The 1922 session of the Northwest Farmers' Conference may be styled as the best ever held at the school. The hundred of farmers who attended went away benefited and inspired. Aoversees is telling a definite place in the educational system of South Carolina and is doing a work specifically its own.
It was founded in 1857 by the late Miss Elizabeth E. Wright, who afterwards became Mrs. Martin A. M. Nenauer. Its present faculty is headed by the Rev. Dr. E. R. Roberts as principal, Mr. Nenauer being the treasurer. The board of trustees is headed by George W. Kelly of Rockland, Mass., as present, and includes S. G. Maynell of Denmark, vice-president; Dr. Roberts; Mennonite Emily S. Lowland of Sherburne; V. M. S. Lowland of Chattanooga; Dr. J. R. Levy of Fortune; Dr J. R. Kollog of Battle Creek; Mist; Warren Logan of Teague Institute; Samuel Hueckel of Wesley, W. V.; Mrs. E. R. Vourhees of Clinton, N. I.; Mrs. I. C. D. Green of Detroit; Arthur Wiggs of Denmark.
Vocational Guide to make psychic realization of a good plan, to simulate those with no plans, and to study clearly any apparently poor plan.
This study involves having all 8th year students, and as many others as circumstances demand, the psychological tests to ascertain grade of intelligence, as measured in functional functioning which the student accesses. This, together with the test estimate of disposition and qualitative character, and the record of the work achieved by the pupil form, the theory of the guidance, prevocational work which is given the three schools gives the child a chance to determine what he is suited skilled trade work and whether he will
If a girl is sure she will not do trade work, she can go to P. S. 90 to try out her adaptability to commerce work. The boys have not yet been given the opportunity as there is no junior high school in the neighborhood of boys. The parents of the children are urged to consult with the Counselor about their hopes for the children's future.
Much of the error in choice of vacation is due to lack of knowledge of the conditions in industry and trade in the professions. To overcome the Counselor, in the three schools, gives a series of lessons on the various factors influencing the choice of a vacation. Up to date, information as to which fields are crowded, or which do not offer many advantages, is given, and the Bureau encourages the student to make individual investigations of himself through use of the public library. Trips to typical lines of human indicator have also been conducted by the Counselor. An attempt is made to follow up and assist the graduates after entering high school.
The work of vocational guidance has met with success. The parents and pupils are eager to be shown the way, especially when they are convinced of the sincerity of purpose back of the work. As little advice as possible is given with a maximum of information. There is a tenacity toward the overcrowding of the professional field by those not sufficiently equipped to do the work, improvement in this respect has come from understanding the exact requirements and rewards of the professions. These vocations which are unpopular, due to the lack of appreciation, will gradually receive recruits from the sources of labor supply, if the work of guidance can go. Nothing is more important than that the machinery for getting and distributing information to the students shall be kept intact. Mistakes easily to the State can be avoided and crime diminished and lives kept happier by a continence of this work.
Toward this end the North Harlem
Vocational Guidance Committee, was
formed last spring. It has included the
Federal Department of Labor to gather
information about the occupations engaged
in by the Negro men of New York. Results have not yet been
obtained but when the work is completed, "the results will be put to the greatest
possible use in furthering education
and guidance." Dr. E. P. Scherris is com-

The country is staggering taking under
present burden of taxes and bond
due to the risks and extravagant
expenditures of the Wilson ad-
option. From my and the curre-
tion of hash spending are necessary
but the national finances on a sound
floating and to restore normal business
conditions. The adoption of the bonus
measure would prevent the bringing
about of this desirable end and load
increased taxes and more debt upon the
people in large.
The decision of many men who serve during the war to oppose the bonus is both hard to be able to them and easy to understand. Many who did not get always the stare so benitted by the mental and physical training they received in the camp that they returned to civil life in better conditions with improved earning capacity than to their army experience. Others who made the transition a hard life in the war must be returned with improved experience and be rewarded with more than that them better merit. Then it must be remembered that it took more than the mere soldiers in the field to win the war. Nitari every
resister of the civilian population at home was doing his or her part toward helping raise money, make ammunitions, produce and save food, care for the soldiers, dependents and contribute in other ways to carry on the war. And yet all of them cannot have a bonus.
There is however, a class of war sufferers who deserve all the aid and sympathy that the nation can give them. These soldiers who were incapacitated in wounds or disease from earning a living should be cared for at the nation's centre and if possible respoorted to health. Employment should be provided for those who lost their positions by reason of their army service. The dependents of those who give their lives for the country's cause should receive adequate pensions. With these just compensations freely accorded there would be no need for a politics' bombs.
LECTIVE REPRESENTATION.
Considerable discussion has been indulged in over the fact that the colored voters of Harlem no longer have a representative of the race in the Legislature as Albany. One of our local communities has been conferring over the question, "Why is the race no longer represented in the Assembly?"
If someone who raise this question wants
to consider a moment that would
realize that elective representation in any body is based upon votes. In order to secure these votes, a candidate for office must first get a nomination. In other words he must elect which party he will stand for and endeavor to get the enrolled voters of that party to cast enough votes for him at the primary to place his name on the party ballot. There is another way of having a petition signed by the required number of voters, and running as an independent. The colored voters of Harlem are mostly located in the 19th and 20th assembly districts. There are not enough of them to outnumber the whites in any election, but there are enough to combine with white voters of outer party and elect their candidates. In order to effect this combination, it is necessary to give as well as to take. If the whites give the nomination for assembly to a colored candidate, they naturally expect to receive the nomination for alderman. Last year the colored voters were allowed to name the candidates for aldermen and the whites name those for assembly. It the Negro voters were all segregated in one voting district they could probably name the candidates for every office comprised in that district. But we do not think that the general benefit would be as great as under the present arrangement. As the districts now exist, it becomes necessary for the two races to divide the nomination on a fair basis, according to the voting strength contributed by each side. This tends to liberalize the white voters by educating them to vote for fit candidates of the other race.
The project way for the Negro voters to increase their elective representation is by bringing out a full enrollment at the principaries, so that they may demonstrate their voting strength in the naming of candidates. Then they must give their united support to their candidates on the score of character and fitness. Pick men who would command respect regardless of race or color.
Thus, ACE would like to see all parties be encouraged enough to ignore race entirely in the choice of candidates for office, but until that time comes when candidates are chosen entirely on the ground of merit. We must increase to contribute our factor of political strength and secure commemorate representation therein in both elective and appointee offices.
The reason why we have no representative of the race at Albany this year should be plain to all. But at the same time the Negro voters of Harlem are represented by the Assemblyman, whom they helped to elect and whose nomination they acquired in when they were accorded the nomination for alderman.
SURPRISED AT THE BISHOPS.
The Aa. has received a communication expressing surprise because no action was taken by the Council of Bishops or the African Methodist Episcopal church, at their recent meeting in Montgomery. Aa. concerning the charge of humoral conduct preferred last June in a sworn allday against a member of that board. It is also claimed that no explanation or denial of the charge has been made by Bishop Flipper, not understanding that the charge has been published broadcast.
The failure to take any action in the case of Bishop Flipner is contrasted with the death action taken by the Bishops in demanding the resignation of Ira T. Bryant, Secretary of the Sunday School Union for the publication of an article in the *Louisville* Institute, reflecting severely against all Negro hops. This willfully denunciation of the bishops was entirely too sweeping, but the failure to act on domestic charges like those prosecuted against Bishop Flipner is taken as a correlation of such criticism.
We believe that there are enough good men and true in the ranks of the bishops to purge that order of all unworthy members, but they cannot afford to rest supremely under such charges as have been pretended against one or two of their number. Also, Nor has always stood for the requirements of moral fitness and good character among those chosen to lead as teachers or pastors. The higher the office the greater the need for strong character and godliness on the part of those who would fill it.
If the ministry needs purging; and we believe it does, the sooner it is administered the better. The bishop is too high an office to be entrusted by the tenger of suspicion.
The Portsmouth (V.A.) Cigni noted the fact that Shinichiro Matsumura, counselor at the bureau of legislation of the imperial government of Japan, visited and impressed the colored school of Tristanum of which Prof. V. N. Carney is principal. It added:
Counsellor Matsumura has been in attendance on the conference for the limitations of armaments at Washington, as a member of the Japanese delegation. He spoke through an interpreter. After going through the class, room and making a good many notes, Counsellor Matsumura said it was the best Negro school he had seen anywhere in this part of the country. He said there were things about it he would like to take back to Japan.
Counsellor Masumura said that he had been commissioned by his government to investigate the conditions of the Negro in this country and he said that through him his government sent greetings to them.
This interest manifested by a Japanese representative in the condition of the American Negro is significant, especially in view of the fact that Japanese has commended for racial equality in world affairs.

Traditions are very slowly built up but more slowly destroyed. It is curious to observe how a tradition which has been long founded persists in spite of facts which prove it to be false. There are several traditions of this latter kind which cling to the Negro. One of them is that he has more superstitions fears than anybody else in this country; that he is terribly afraid of graveyards and ghosts and all the other supernatural phenomena.
The Negro himself has helped to foster and support this tradition. A great many of his best stories and softer of his songs are all about hair-raising episodes in graveyards and about running from ghosts. So it is natural that white people would swallow this tradition whole. It would take a Freudian analysis to explain why the Negro has so many stories about running. The colored soldiers before the War and during the War were responsible for some of the most humorous of all the war stories, and a great part of these Negro stories were concerned with running away in fear.
Now, the fact of the matter is that the Negro soldiers, told these stories but none of them ran at any time.
This tradition about the superstitious fears of the Negro figured in an episode in Los Angeles in connection with the murder of William D. Taylor, the motion picture director. The episode was at the same time serious and amusing.
One of the most important witnesses in the case is Henry Peavey who was employed in Taylor's household before and at the time of the murder. The murder, as is known, is still an unsolved mystery and everybody who had any close relations with the murdered man has been put through the most rigid examinations by the police and District Attorney.
It seems to have occurred to several reporters on the Los Angeles "Examiner," the Hearest publication in Los Angeles, a few days ago, that if they took the proper means they could get some valuable information out of Peavey. Accordingly, they set the stage with considerable ingenuity, as they thought, to bring forth the desired information.
Two men drove up to where Peavey was living and asked him to come out. He said to them that he was not doing any talking to newspaper reporters. The men then declared to him that they were not newspaper reporters but officials of the law and that they had come to go over certain of Peavey's statements with him. They suggested that he go with them to the office of the "Examiner" to answer these questions. He was kept in the office of the "Examiner" several hours. Peavey stated that the "Examiner" men several times referred to a spiritualist who would arrange for a conference between him, Peavey, and Taylor's spirit. After nightfall they put Peavey onto an automobile and drove out to the cemetery. One of the reporters remarked, "Gee! Goodness! It makes me nervous to drive into a cemetery at night. How do you feel, Henry?" Peavey said that he replied, "It don't bother me."
The party then drove up to the vault where Taylor was buttied. The lights on the car were suddenly turned out. The party got out and walked over to the vault. As they did so a man walked out from behind the vault made up like a ghost. The reporters then exclaimed, "Look! Look! Look! There's Taylor." The "ghost," according to Peavey's story, commenced to make funny noises, dropped down and caught him around the feet and commenced groaning. The reporters kept trying to have Peavey make some sort of confession to the "ghost," but Peavey's response was far from being a confession. He said to the man, "What in the hell are you guys trying to make out of me—a fool?" This exclamation ended the scence.
Peavey reported to District Attorney Woolwine, Mr. Woolwine characterized the action of the "Examiner" reporters as "presumptuous, dangerous and dastardly." He denounced the alleged abductors of Peavey as "conscious blackguards."
And so it is seen that this episode at once serious and amusing—serious, because it is a case of abduction, which is a crime, and amusing because these reporters based their faith and expended their good money for auto hire and other expenses on the old exploded tradition that the sight of a ghost would so terrorize a Negro that it would make him tell both things that he knew and did not know about the murder mystery.
OPPRESSION BY FORCE.

We have more than once referred to the situation in India in these columns and spoken of Gandhi and his non-cooperative movement which has already reached a critical point.
Gandhi's movement, as we know, is based upon peaceful non-cooperation. Gandhi himself proclaiming that it will be far more effective than any movement of violence that India could possibly undertake. The movement might indeed be called the Passive Resistance Movement.
We are interested in the central theory on which Gandhi bases his movement. This central theory is that an empire rules a subject state less by force than by enticing it into convenient collaboration. Of course, the orthodox idea is that it is always machine guns, first and foremost, that keep a people subjugated. Gandhi, in considering the amazing fact that fewer than 100,000 Englishmen lord it over 300,000,000 Indians, declares, "They do so somewhat uniquestedly by force but more so by securing our cooperation in a thousand ways and making us more and more helpless and dependent on them as time goes forward." In other words, Gandhi means that Great Britain could not oppress India unless she secured the help of the Indians themselves in doing the job. What he proposes to do, then, is to deprive Great Britain of the help which the Indians themselves give her in oppressing India. It is his theory that this help which the Indians give is far more important than the actual force behind the British machine guns.
There is a great deal in this theory to think about. Of course, England could not take hold upon India and keep hold upon her without the power of machine guns and warships. But after all, she could not continue to hold India and rule it through the means of shooting down natives and bombing cities daily. The conquest depends upon gun power, but the ruling of a people by a small minority of foreign overlords cannot be carried on at all except through the cooperation of the oppressed people themselves.
There is something in this theory which applies to the condition of the Negro in the South, and there is something in it which could be worked out to his advantage. Of course, it cannot be worked out in precisely the same way in which Gandhi worked it out in India. Nevertheless, there are parrellel lines between the condition of the Indians in India and the Negroes in the South.
in the South which could not be denied them except through their own connivance and cooperation, and there are simple methods which, if they were put into practice by the mass of colored people, would immediately put an end to many of the wrongs and injustices which they now suffer.
Some time ago we intimated in these columns that if in communities where lynchings were threatened, the mass of colored people would serve notice that they would not do one stroke of work for any white person, that they would not drive a nail, or move a piece of lumber, or garrue a brick, or drive a mule, or wash a dish or garment, or cook a meal, or sweep a house, etc., until the threatened victim was assured of safety, it would in most of such cases obviate the action of the mob. This is merely an example of the sort of thing which might be done in other cases, and done much more effectively because less urgency would give more time for thorough preparation and united action.
HOW OPPOSITION IS CREATED

COLOR LINE IN RELIEF.
A few weeks ago the root of a moving picture theatre in the city of Wash ington collapsed, with the result that a large number of people were killed and wounded. When the summer was sent out medica and it is related that the ambiance from the Freedmen's Hospital was the first to arrive with its corp of surgical attendants. By this time the injured and bleeding survivors were emerging from the ruins, in dire need of first aid to the injured and medical attention. But the officials, on individuals, who had assumed charge of the rescue and relief of the injured, met the ambulance corps from the Freedmen's Hospital that they would accept the use of the ambulance, but that no medical attention from colo od surgery was desired.
We have often said in these columns that many colored people have the vague idea that the opposition which the Negro meets in the United States is something floating around in the air which they bump up against frequently and which incommodes or handicaps them. The opposition which we meet as a race is not that sort of thing at all. It is something which has been thought out and worked out. The Negro must realize that he can meet this opposition only through the same methods—by thinking out and working out his plans.
This business of thinking out and working opposition to the Negro goes on daily. We are not merely up against opposition which was created fifty years ago, much of which has been overcome, but we are up against opposition which is being created each day. Our opponents are always thinking for us. That is why we need to be always on the alert. That is why so much truth is expressed in the line, "Literal vigilance is the price of liberty."
An example of this was given at the National Conference of Bar Associations which met last week in Washington. This conference was made up of the various state organizations of the American Bar Association. At this conference a resolution was adopted requiring future members of the bar to have at least two years college education in addition to their regular law school work. After considerable discussion and opposition, this resolution was adopted.
Now, among other resolutions, was one proposed by W. H. Ellis of Florida: A resolution which provided that the respective state bar associations be empowered to establish their own regulations and qualifications for admission to the bar. Here was a resolution which looked innocent enough on its face, but it was loaded, loaded for Negro asurants to the bar. It simply meant that Southern state bar associations would make regulations that would look fair enough, but which could be used to prevent colored lawyers being admitted to practice.
Freedmen's Hospital is maintained by the Federal Government as a part of the medical department of Howard University. It ranks fifth in the value of medical institutions and its staff has included such well-known doctors as Dr Daniel Hale Williams, William A. Warfield and others.
The caulous heartlessness of race prejudice that would deny immediate relief to suffering human beings, because that relief was brought by those of good color is hard to believe. The fenth of race prejudice deeds savage witnesses from our savage servicers.
GETTING STRAIGHT ON
LYNCHING.
Every now and then estate owners out in various parts of the South that there is a right thinking portion of the white community that does not enclose law and lynching. The latest revelation of this sentiment was manifested in two separate States, Georgia and North Carolina.
The manifestation in the Georgia case was provoked by the killing by an armed mole of a Negro farmer, in Solich county. The indignation argued by this killing is voiced, in no uncertain terms in an editorial published in the American Times-Recorder, the official organ for the city of Americus. The victim of the mob is described as a young Negro farmer, who through his torture, honesty and intelligence and the application of those virtues which the white man teaches the members of his race, make good citizens." The article goes on to say that "the best people of the community, who appear to be vast in the majority, are up in arms, demanding that the outrage be punished." According to popular belief, the Sheriff has been anything but diligent in the performance of his duty and it is said that efforts are to be made to have him ousted from office. If the best people of the community are in the majority, as the Times-Recorder thinks, they ought to be able to get a sheriff who will enforce the laws.
The Albany (Gas.) Herald was commonly prone in calling for the authorities to take proper steps to punish the lynchers' saying: "It is time to put a stop to lynching in Georgia, and it will never be done until some lynchers are trained."
of these columns that many collares that the opposition which the Negro something floating around in the air frequently and which incommode position which we meet as a race it is something which has been The Negro must realize that it is through the same methods—by his plans, out and working opposition to the not merely up against opposition ago, much of which has been over opposition which is being created always thinking for us.

In North Carolina the effects made to egregiate Matthew Bunnel from Canada transmitted the Greenberg 1712 New with the occasion the pattern of impala with facts in regard to the State's position toward blinding it started out by saying that Governor Morrison's pretty tacities and North Carolina's ugly facts do not harmure worth a cent. In contorting the Governor's assurance that their actions are never winked at by the authorities it returned "Often the authorities do not take the trouble even to wink." The history of our state is replete with blunders which did not save our officers even to bar at once. And it goes on to give details and facts concerning such violence which custom in the inhalation conclusion "Omit Gold-Sand's 1921 sentence and Winston Salem's 1918 night against the mob and North Carolina's record is shameful, indicted." All of which goes to show that thinking Southern editors realize the lengths to which manured myths violence have dragged their civilization and the light in which places them before the outside world. Incidentally it amplifies the stand taken by the Canadian authorities in retiring to another Bunnel.
These instances of plant speciation in Southern editors show that the settlement is getting straight and just of breeding. Whether it will grow strong enough to stop lying in its own lair or is the question in the meantime the remedy offered through the Dyer bill should help the South to please itself of this growing measure.
The Chicago Tribune declares that the South had missed a good show when it objected to the production of "The Emperor Jones" because a share was the star with an imputed crown. The South has missed a good mass flowers of civilization because of its colorophobia.

THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, MARCH 4, 1932.
That brilliant young pianist, William L. King ("Billy") of Philadelphia, is serving as Miss Anderson's accompanist, and from a copy of the Nashville program, I see that he is also figuring as a soloist. At Fisk recital he played Schuntman's Aufschwung (opus 12), as the central number of the evening's program. Leaving Nashville, Miss Anderson and Mr. King had engagements at Tuskegee Institute, and Montgomery, Ala., Atlanta and Augusta, Ga., and Raleigh, N. C., expecting to reach Philadelphia next week. Miss Anderson's work is attracting much attention, and interesting comment is made in the Musical Courier of a recent issue.
WHITE CITIZENS OF GEORGIA
COUNTY INCENSED AT SNERIFF
ward that these wounds would have eventually caused his death. Jones returned this fire. His first shot struck DeVane, who yelled that he was shot. As the colored man was slipping another shell into his gun, Harvey started to run, but Jones' aim was good and his second shot struck the fleeing white man, wounding him seriously. Wounded as he was, Jones made his way to a nearby farm run by R. F. Allen, a white man. He stopped at the house of one of Allen's colored employees and asked for help. This man feared for himself, and called Mr. Allen. Jones' father-in-law lived on the Allen farm and was asked by the white man to take care of Jones, but the old man was frightened and refused to have anything to do with his daughter's husband. Jones then asked Mr. Allen to take him to La Cross, to the home of his uncle, Tork Hart, which was done. It was here that the mob found him on Monday morning, when the final act of the butchering took place.
The mob did not attempt to take Jones from the house, a small shanty, in which he had taken refuge, but, according to report, the men were seen to approach and from a distance, fire a volley into the house, as though to drive its occupants out. A short silence was followed by noise and greater ushade of varying volume, after which the mob made its way back to town.
Immediately on hearing of the shooting, County Commissioner Williamson and Mayor Rogers Williams went to the scene of the shooting, and found Jones where he had been left for dead. He was still conscious, tough riddled with bullets, and was able to make a statement to the officials naming many of the men who complained both the Sunday nights' and Monday's wolfs. The sheriff finally arrived and took Jones to the county jail, where he died at 6 o'clock Monday afternoon. Sheriff Battle has held office for seven years. He was reelected last year to a term of four years. It is allied that he is backed by the "whiskey ring," which as rehealed in each primary to enter a number of candidates, dividing the law and order vote, thus giving Battle opportunity to slip into office. But all citizens are learnt, then seen.
This is the most outrageous thing that has ever happened in Georgia, and the better element are going to see to it that it is properly punished. And they are going to see if they can't have the present chief removed from office. If such crimes are permitted to go unchallenged none of us or our property will be safe from the laxious element. We must have a clean-up, and we are going to have it.
BENEFIT FOR MANASSAS
AT RENAISSANCE THEATRE
The management of the Renaissance Theatre announced that on Saturday afternoon, March 4th, the entire proceeds of the afternoon performance at that theatre will be given over to the fund being raised for the benefit of Manassas School, Manassas, Va. The feature picture for this performance will be "Shane" starting John Gillbert. Manassas School was founded in 1904 by Jennie Deane, and has done a fine work in the northern part of Virginia as a secondary school. It has been depending on public contributions for its support, and like many other such schools funds it still very much in need of funds this year. For this reason a campaign is being waged in New York to raise $3,000 to help complete the school year. Those who attend this performance at the Renaissance will be siding a worthy cause, and at the same time will see a good picture.
Southern White Editors Are Evidencing Changed Sentiment
THE AGE is reproducing herewith two editorials from Southern newspapers edited by white men which are calculated to show that there is gradual growth of a changed sentiment in the South as regards the toleration hitherto shown the criminal and law-breaking element constituting the lynching mobs. The demand of an Americus, Ga., editor for the removal of a county sheriff who failed to properly perform his duty, and the declaration of a Greensboro, N. C., editor that North Carolina "whites practice murder on a corporate scale and rarely ever come to account for it." in decrying the demand made by the Governor of that State on the Canadian government for the extradition of Matthew, Bullock, afford evidence that a new spirit of justice and fair-play is coming to life in the breasts of a certain element of southern white area.
SCHLEY COUNTY'S INDIGNATION
(From Times-Recorder American, Ga.) A worthy Ngro farmer, who through his thrift, honesty and intelligence and the application of those virtues which the white man teaches the members of his race make good citizens and which all of them should practice, has been killed by a mob in Sichley county, only without provocation and the people of the community, who guess the youth in the majority, are in arms, demanding that the courage be punished.
But at the outset apparently they have run up against a serious snag. After a coroner's jury had made accusations upon evidence heard, and warrants had been placed in the possession of the county sheriff, that officer, according to popular belief supported by the record of net results achieved by hung has been anything but diligent in the performance of his duty. And so indigent has the community become that efforts are to be made to have the sheriff ousted from office.
Evidently there is something written about the situation in India. Some where the machinery of justice is jumping dogs. For results were not attained when they could have been attained and the accused men have not been rounded up, but rather have been given the opportunity to make their get-away, except two wounded men.
The Times-Recorder does not intend here to reflect any concern as to his guilt or innocence of the men accused of this crime, but it is merely attempting to point out that the names of the men alleged to have been involved have been duly retested and warrants placed in the hands of the sheriff for service, and that because of his negligence, either wilful or through sheer inefficiency, has permitted man to escape from under his very nose when all he would have had to do would have been to lay his hands on them and arrest them. But the accused men will likely be caught eventually. If the sheriff does not locate them they probably will drift home one by one to find the
The Times-Riverlet believes the good people of Sibley county are justified in their indignation, and that they are to be commended upon their insistence that they must be arrested and brought to trial, there to establish their justification for the killing of Will Jones, if there be any, or the guilt or innocence of this apparently atrocious crime, the case of Thomas and the nation on Sibley county, this time, is criminal. And the verdict is in her own hands.
PRETTY FANCIES AND UGLY FACTS.
(From Daily News, Greensboro, N. C.)
Governor Morrison's pretty tancies and North Carolina's ugly facts do not harmonize worth a cent.
It is true enough that the "people of Warren, County, as a whole, are law-abiding people as can be found in the United States"; and equally true that the people of Warren as a half, a third a fourth or any other part capable of participating in what Governor Morrison is pleased to denominate "so-called lynching"; are as cowardly, vicious and criminal as can be found in the United States. Geography has very little to do with organized savages.
But the governor might as well face the truth now as later. The Canadian authorities are refusing to extradite Matthew Bullock simply because they have heard that down here in North Carolina where the odds in population are two and three to one, the weakest and poorest of whites 100 to 1, in laws, and the courts are the weakest in the ratio of 2,500,000 to 0, whites unwilling to like under the laws of their own making, practice murder on corporate scale and safely ever come to account for it.
What makes Governor Morrison so sure that Warren county officials, who informed him a year ago that there was no danger of a "so-called lynching" which took place while the assurance was being transmitted by telephone would know any better now if another "so-called lynching" were being conspired? It lets no great burden on
in rare instances, a record of cowardice and disgrace. Governor Morrison declares that "lynchings are never winked at by the authorities and are always prevented where the authorities have any knowledge of the approach of danger and an opportunity to prevent it." Often the authorities do not take the trouble even to "wink." The history of our state is replete with lynchings which did not cause our officers even to bat an eye.
But how long has it been since a mob in Governor Morrison's town went to a hospital, ran over the women purse, took from a ward a scuffled Negro and lambed him severely as an undertaker have taken him out and burned him? What did Charlotte do to punish the man who decapitated the soil of the signers? And how long before this was it when a Rowan county mob broke into jail during a special term of court which had been called to try a group of prisoners kept many weeks in Charlotte jail, tortured three of them while 15 special deputies did a military security jail held highway, the police.

would "shoot no white men to save a damnedigger?" And how long prior to the visit of that Rowan meebus was it that the same "people as a whole" could not present the lynching of two black brats, aged 13 and 11?
How long has it been since Solicitor H. K. Norris, perhaps the most powerful prosecutor in North Carolina, conducted the

Who doesn't recall the Greene county sortie into Lehigh to get Old Joe Black who was a jail from jail and murdered on a injustice misleamer? Who doesn't recollect Governor Craig's call on the resident judge to conduct an investigation, the jurist's declination and the subsequent inquiry of Solicitor Henry E. Shaw and Judge W. E. Bond into that community murder? And who can name one man in Greene or Lehigh counties who lifted up his voice in support of a solemn investigation which Chief Justice Walter Clark called "the Kington performance"? Who will ever forget the Goldsboro mob's easy victory over the jailer and the twisting of the late Justice Allen by Judge Clark because Julge Allen did not prevent mob murder in his home town? Omni Goldsboro, 1920 resisted
North California's record is angane al indered.

Representative Blanton of Texas argued that the Dyer bill was a hoodoo because it was No. 13 on the House calendar. He was reported as follows:
There is not a colored person in the United States who will have any confidence in the law when you pass it when it has the number 13 attached to it. (Laughter). They knew that it means bad luck to them, and I will be.
possibly, in the Senate, though I am not, but either in the either end of this Capital or in conference it is going to die a natural death, and that death was intended by the very men who have been speaking in its favor for several weeks. Mark that prediction.
It is up to the supporters of the Dyer bill to prove the Texas Congressman a false prophet.
This is a free country-or rather it is supposed to be. We also urge colord men, to seek elective offices-why not, you claim that your rights are equal and coordinate with all other peoples. You make a great bowl about your rights here, why are you afraid to exercise those rights-why a political right—a right to vote for some one else, carries with it a right to be voted for and to hold office.
Illinois is a good State in which to carry this doctrine into practice. The Negroes of Chicago have demonstrated their political strength in local elections and have gained corresponding representation in state and county offices.
In advancing reasons why the women of the race should register, so as to be able to vote at the November elections in Illinois, the State legislature has directed the State legislature to hold the nation in the 6th congress, be elected, and if the Republicans are not vigilant, the Democrats will carry the lower house and further embarrass the administration of President Harding, whose outstanding feature to date is dilly-dallying and doing nothing permanent nor constructive for the relief of the people.
There will be many reasons why you will want to vote. Bond issues may come up—tax burdens may overtake us again. Charter revision is threatening us, and we want to in a movement.

The local reasons for exercising the ballot seem to weigh heavier than the national ones, according to this appeal. But the advice to qualify as voters is sound and should be heeded.
Fossenen, Academy. Flat-The destruction by fire on December 15th Last of Carnegie Hall, the largest and most beautiful building on the campus of Fossenen Academy and Industrial School, was a severe blow. The building housed the girls, and conglined the dining hall and rooms for meetings, specials and stood. The library was also in this building.
The president, W. H. Kindle, formerly of the West 135th street Y. M. C. A., New York City, was not discouraged in cash materials and plugs, so only $900, remains to be raised. An additional $2,500 is secured from the repair fund, and an additional sum is to be realized from sale of land owned by the school, but too far distant for advantageous use.
With these funds immediately available, President Kindle intends beginning the rebuilding of the girls' dormitory without delay. The destroyed building was valued at $22,500, and damage to furnishings and machinery amounted to $5,000 more. Fessenden is under control of the American Missionary Association with headquarters at 237 Fourth avenue, New York City. The school force is now busy winding up the farm planting. Ten acres have been planted in watermelons, two in tomatoes. An orange grove of seventy-five trees has been planted, and is expected to begin bearing, in three years.

THE LINCOLN THEATRE
"Perjury," the William Box opened which created a tremendous sensation during its run in a Broadway, New York, theatre, opened that day might at the Lincoln Theatre. It is a gripping drama of some human emotion and held the audience spellbound to the end. The tour is certain to be one as a Virginia play, and theatrical art exhibition and festival show of a change and then comedy rage, followed by despair. Prison rates close on Robert Moore for every year, following an annual census of murder and his wife and children are left to a neglect in the world.
Harry Millarde directed the production and parked it for 60 years. His age, but with all fitness and almost eliminated in the cruiser, long continuation.

Lincoln Descafé Hampton.
(Special to The New York Age)
Hamilton, Va. - Lincoln University won the basketball championship of the Colored Interstate Athletic Association of the Middle Atlantic States on Washington's Birthday, by defending Hampton 41 to 35 in a hard-fought, well-played game. The first half ended 25 to 17 in favor of the visitors.
The second half began with Lincoln getting the jump, but toward the end of the game the "Seasiders" played with old-time form and only twice saved the Penn State contest. The playing of Mitchell and Lincoln was easily the feature of the game. He made 11 points in the final. Lincoln's victory was the second record Hampton this season.

He kept his promise for 14 months. He will keep my promise. But next summer my friends, the colored people, will have a show-down.

of the recent war. Another burden upon the shoulders of the workers for the benefit of a selected class! We read, and read with respectful consideration, the statements of the big men of foreign nations to the chief that for our country to insist upon the payment of its war loans to the allied nations will result in the bankruptcy of the world. These loans I believe are for eight billions of dollars. In the face of that, we have what appears to be alarmingly near a majority of our Congress who stand ready to put a new debt upon our shoulders of between five and six billions.
A Misguided Prepaganda.
"I cannot believe that many of our law-makers actually believe in the wisdom of such a crime against the people. I believe they are treachful or deceit at the polls if they do not yield to the active propaganda of misguided or misguided leaders who have deluged them with their demands. Let us today organize a back-tire with a purpose of giving courage to weak-minded Congressmen. Let them understand that if they betray the many for the benefit of the few they will have the same kind of a light on their hands next fall as they tear they may have it they displace the organized veterans of that great army that marched forth so proudly "To Make the World Safe for Democracy."
I urge you as leaders of the great coloured race, and I urge all of my old comrades in the best advertised regiment of your race, to take action and organize today and start tomorrow the endless chain to cover the whole country and register the 12 millions of colored Americans as against the bonus. Other men better qualified than I have been telling you for months the dreadful facts of financial significance of the scheme. It will put upon our countrys financial scars from which our children's children will suffer. The few hundred dollars given to each man will start no new businesses—create new and permanent avenues of wage earning. It will yield nothing for permanent support for the disabled and the dependents of the disabled for whom the American pocket-book will always spend and spend gladly. It will be exactly what it is called—A bonus—that and nothing else—A bonus. Extra pay—something to blow in—a few weeks of revelry and a hope that somebody else will have the head of the cold gray dawn of the morning after.
Aksa Race to Lead.
"Let the colored race lead in this movement for the public good, as our regiment led in France. I have taken part in many public movements for the benefit of the colored race. Now let this rule be reversed. Tthrow away your crutch." "Lead for the public welfare without a taint of private interest and see what effect it will have upon your struggle for equality, throughout the nation: "I have referred to arguments of practical men to demonstrate the dangers which lurk in these bodies—the deprivation of liberty, a nation—the derriers through which taxes are even higher than at present, by which our entire commercial energy would be destroyed. I shall leave technical arguments to others."
"It is upon the consideration of sentiment that I address you. Do not sneer at me. Do not sneer at men. Men and nations holding themselves above the influence of sentimental emotion are men and nations without ideals. Men and nations without ideals are men and nations ruling the road to men. No nation has ever survived that has turned its back upon sentimental ideas. It is sentiment, not politemen, that keeps men going straight. It is sentiment; not indifference to death, that keeps men going forward in battle. It is sentiment that we must look to keep the Han outside our gates to keep the Trotskis and Lenins in Bolshev Russia.
March of the Old 15th.
"It was by sentiment that our soldiers of the old Baltimore, won the fame that inspired New York City to turn out to greet us on our welcome-home parade on, that never-to-hefergorten 17th of February, 1919, when we marched up 55 avenue from 23rd street to 110th street and then up Lenox avenue to 145th street.
"The tens of thousands who cheered that day and drowned the music of Jim Europe's band—the women who wore the men who cried "God bless you, boy!" they did not give us their greeting that day because we were a regiment of colored soldiers—they did not give us their greeting that day in spite of our being a regiment of colored soldiers. "The citizens of New York greeted us that day from hearts filled with love, and with gratitude and with pride because we were a regiment of their fellow citizens who had volunteered, with lives for our state and with glory for our reward. to do the work of patriots and because we had done that work and done it faithfully and well.
"A few days later I was a guest of honor at a great lunchon given by 200 members of the Merchants Association of New York to a member of soldier men. At that lunchon one of leading publishers of New York and the United States (a man who had known me since I was a boy) put his arms around my shoulders and said: 'Arthur, I am proud of you and of the splendid company in which you served.' That man was not an emotional man, but he spoke to me that day his eyes were filled and his voice trembled.
"Three weeks ago of this present year I asked that same man of if he would care to publish my book which I completed some time ago—the book of my two years of adventure with the 16th Heavy Foam my story of the most famous colored regiment in the world. My friend, the publisher, declined with scorn and with hot indignation of expression. I'm through with soldiers, he said, soldiers—gratifiers and hams—Arthur, you know of the gratfulness of my heart to soldiers when you came home. I was ready, then and I am ready now to give my full share, whatever the cost, to care for the helpfulness and to assist the partially helpless and the dependants of the These roils in themselves will run into tens of thousands.

"Such was the evolution of that man's mind during the short space of time marked by three years. That man's mind is a normal mind.
"My friends, I went home that night with my head down. I've always been against this bonus thing, and most of my comrades and military friends, have been against it. But I had kept silent about it. I had raised my voice in protest. My associates and I had not given our moral support to the courageous few in Congress who are perhaps sacrificing their political fortunes in defence of the United States Treasury. I was a shocker.
That night I didn't sleep but by morning I was a man again. With the dawn of day had come to me a new light of guidance as to duty. I had determined once more to serve my country—to ask the men of the 150s and the men and women of their race to follow me once more into battle. It may be too late to wif, but at least we can try.

The evening service was again inspired by the subject, "The exalted Christ, way dear." I lifted up will draw all men. If Christians exalt Christ, He will draw all men unto Himself. The chief rendered several impressive numbers.
