Newark, N. J.—The quiet suburb of Orange has just passed through one of the most bitter and exciting political campaigns in the city. For the past four years Orange has been considered a middle town; saloons have been unmolested, gambling houses have flourished, and the city has been the haven of undesirables from other places.

A number of speakers were presented who spoke strongly against lynching and its attendant evils, that interest of the evening centered around the two members of the National Congregation. Senator Calder spoke with eloquent force, declaring himself unequivocally in favor of the Bill. "If I had my way," declared he, "I'd pass the law now and argue about its constitutionality afterward. I have been in public office long enough to know that it is the business of the government to protect its citizens." He stated that Senator Wadsworth was also in favor of the Dyer Bill.

The conditions have grown to such an extent that they were almost unbearable, and for the first time in its history the people of Orange realized that something must be done in order to get the city right in the eyes of its neighbors.

Frequent and enthusiastic applause was evoked by the speakers. Fred R. Moore of The Ace appealed for a development of race consciousness and racial organization. Resolution introduced by Commissioner A. A. Pope, seconded by W. H. Harleston, urged favorable action by the Senate Committee on the Dyer Bill, asking that it be reported out at once. The N. A. A. C.

It is expected that the various fraternal borders, war organizations, benevolent societies and many other civic and religious bodies will participate in this parade.

The fight for the candidates who were pledged to "Clean Government" and a square deal for all sections of the city was led by Dr. Walter G. Alexander, Attachybllyman from Orange. The local police pursued that the "Combi" had one of the best working and most perfectly equipped machines that could be constructed, and it was a great surprise and an invigilly blow to the "Combi" when it found on election night that the colored conditions of the First Ward had been thoroughly swallowed to the pitil of conditions in which they lived, and had delivered a decisive blow of defeat to the supposed invincible machine of the "Combi."

Bridge Street Church Is Opposing A Former Pastor
Five Hundred Members In Special Meeting Adopt Resolution of Protest Against Probable Naming of Presiding Elder Cole as Pastor
The Pocahontas Negro Democratic Club of the State and City of New York, in the 21st Assembly District, has been granted letters of incorporation by the State Supreme Court. This new organization is composed principally of the voters who supported the candidacy of Counselor John William Smith in his fight for a seat in the New York City Aldermanic Board last Fall.
A permanent organization effected on April 6 put affairs of the club under control of the following officers: John W. Smith, president and leader; Dr. Gustavus Henderson, 1st vice-president; Mrs. Louise Russell, 2nd vice-president; Dr. James Banks, 3rd vice-president; Dr. Margery G. Mrey, recording secretary; Mrs. Estelle M. Flores, corresponding secretary; Dr. Alexander Kellogg, treasurer; George Hilton, financial secretary; Arthur P. Norwood, sergeant-at-arms; John G. Ridley, assistant sergeant-at-arms.
In making announcement of the incorporation and organization of the club the organization is referred to as having been founded by Mr. Smith's supporters in his unsuccessful Aldermanic aspirations in order that the gains for respectable democracy should not be lost; "for it will be remembered that many voters who have been Republicans in politics ably supported Mr. Smith's candidacy." Continuing, the announcement declares that the objects of the organization include, among other things:
To interest Negro voters in the study, debate and solution of State, City and national political, historical, economical and civic questions; to maintain a steady and continued interest in political and civic affairs, City, State and national; to cooperate with any Negro organization, regardless of political persuasion, in interest of the amelioration of the condition of the Negro, political and otherwise.
Through the courtesy of the Bishop Burch Memorial Mission, the club is holding its meetings at the Mission building, 28 Edgecombe avenue, and its membership is open to all citizens.

The controversy over a new pastor for Bridge Street. A. M. E. Church seems to be getting warmer as the time for the annual conference approaches. On Monday evening, May 21, the members of the church held another called meeting, at which time more than five hundred members met and expressed in no uncertain terms their sentiment with regard to the probable appointment of the Rev. C. P. Cole, who is now presiding elder of the Long Island district of the New York Conference, as either their pastor or presiding elder. After a lengthy discussion of the matter, a committee was appointed which drew up the following resolutions to be presented to Bishop William H. Heard, the presiding bishop of the conference.
To the Rt. Rev. Wm. H. Heard, D. D. Presiding Bishop of the New York Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church.
Reverend sir:
We the members of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, having read an article in The New York Act of May 20, relative to a rumor that Rev. C. P. Cole, presiding elder of the Long Island District, is seeking to be appointed either as pastor of this church or presiding elder over this church for the ensuing conference year, wish to enter our protest against the said appointment of Rev. Cole as pastor of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, or as presiding elder to preside over Bridge Street Church. We believe that it will not be for the best interest of the church to have Rev Cole over us longer. And furthermore, Dr. Cole has served out the time limit, and as Dr. Carpenter cannot be returned because of the time limit WE WILL NOT RECEIVE DR. COLE as pastor or as presiding elder again. Rev. Cole has been over Bridge Street Church for eleven years—SIX YEARS AS PASTOR and five years as presiding elder—for the same law that prohibits Dr. Carpenter's return also prohibits the return, of Dr. Cole.
We therefore, wish to further affirm

Port Jefferson, N. Y.—Alpha Lodge
No. 57, F. A. M., has made public its
recent action by which life expulsion
was voted against the Rev. George
H. Hall, formerly a member of that
organization. The charge against Hall
was that he had "Falsified his stat-
ements and perjured him." If in his
application to this Lodge for mem-
bership.
Alpha Lodge took this action on May 4th, 1922, basing the charge upon the fact that in making application for membership Hall had sworn that he had never been convicted of a criminal act in any court of law, whereas a certified copy of the record of conviction and sentence of the said Hall to a two years' term in the State Prison at Auburn was presented before the Lodge.
The certified copy was from the Niagara County Court, issued by Olney C. Armiston, special deputy county clerk, and set forth that on October 31st, 1905, George H. Hall, by occupation a minister of the gospel, was arraigned on a charge of rape in the second degree. By consent of the district attorney he was allowed to plead guilty to assault in the second degree and on this plea was given a sentence of not less than two years nor more than two years and six months at hard labor in Auburn prison, by County Judge Charles Hickey.
When this record was produced in Alpha Lodge, and it was further shown that Hall had served the prescribed term in prison, the expulsion action was immediately taken and public announcement made of the same. At the time of his conviction, Hall who was born in Puffalo, was ninety-eight years old.
Officers of Alpha Lodge are William S. Sella, W. M.; Nelson D. Combs, S. W.; Morton Treadwell, J. W.; Walter Thompson, treasurer; Robert G. Stewart, secretary.

Six Negro Legal Reserve Life Insurance Companies
One Company Has Reserve of More Than Million Dollars and Eleven Companies Have Paid out $14,741,731.53 to Beneficiaries
Twenty-five years ago legal reserve life insurance companies owned and controlled by Negroes were unknown. Only fraternal associations existed. The form of insurance which they handled did not fit the needs of their members. While aid and death claims were paid with some irregularity by the fraternal unions the government which does not provide certain protection is deemed to fail.
Partly as a result of the failure of the fraternal associations to meet the demands of the people for insurance and partly because of the refusal of the white companies to sell the higher types of insurance to Negroes due Negro legal reserve life insurance companies
York City for twenty-five years. After taking courses in embalming in several of the best embalming colleges in New York, he graduated in the Spring of 1897 from the famous Philadelphia Training School for Embalmers, now known as Eckles College of Embalming. On the first of September, he made the preparation and burial of Negro dead was entirely in the hands of white undertakers. Success came to him from the start. During the first sixteen years of his business venture, he buried nearly eight thousand bodies. During this time he trained personally all of his assistants. His wife, Mrs. Ella A. Thomas, was his indispensable assistant, and at time of his death, was his active business associate. Mr. Thomas was one of New York's wealthiest colored citizens. Mr. Thomas' skill as an embalmer caused him to be invited on many occasions to demonstrate the art of scientific embalming before various of the local embalming colleges in New York City. On the walls of his office are to be seen many testimonials from European countries testifying to the perfect condition of bodies shipped, after embalming, to foreign ports by Mr. Thomas.
Always active in civic, fraternal and political matters, Mr. Thomas was connected with many organizations. He was a member of St. John's Lodge, No. 29, F. & A. M., and this lodge officiated at the funeral service. He was also a member of Fred Savage Lodge, 9387, G. U. O. O. F.; Colored and White Undertakers' Association; the Saloonmen Association; the Banquet Association; the Bethel League; Mt. Zion Lodge, Order of Moses; Clubmen's Beneficial League; Southern Beneficial League; B. & S. Society; the United Civic League; an honorary member of the Bellmen's Association, and a life member of the National Negro Business League.
The funeral services were held on Wednesday evening, May 24, at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, of which he was a member, with the pastor, Dr. J. W. Brown officiating, Bacom F. Hodge, of the Thomas Undertaking Establishment, had charge of the funeral arrangements, assisted by Norman B. Sterrett. Interment was made in Mt. Olivet Cemetery on Thursday morning.
The understaking business will be continued as usual, directed by Mrs. Ella A. Thomas, assisted by Bascorn F. Hodge.
Besides the widow, Mr. Thomas is survived by four children, James C. Thomas, Jr., an Assistant United States District Attorney in New York City; Mrs. Corine Thomas Christy, Miss Evelyn Vivienne Thomas and Miss Ruth Marie Thomas.
N. Y. Republicans Greet Gov. Miller
Great Demonstration at Town Hall,42nd County Republicans Meet
Hylanism-HearstismDenounced-TellsParty to Stand On Achievements, Fight Hard and Ignore Misrepresentations
Governor Miller was hailed by Republicans of the city in great demonstration on Friday night, May 19, in Town Hall, as the one man who must lead his party through the next State campaign in a battle against "demagogues and demagogism." Acclaimed the leader, he was nominated with one voice by the New York county Republican organization.
In a two hour speech the Governor outlined the issues of the campaign. Reviewing the achievement of his administration, he told the party workers that it formed the platform on which they could with confidence go into the fight. Though uttering no word of his own intentions regarding his political future, he interentially in nearly every word made it clear to the audience that it was his own platform and his own campaign issues he was defining.
lasted several minutes. All of the 1,500 or more men and women in the audience were on their feet applauding and showing. It dwarfed the applause which greeted the Governor when he first appeared.
Nathaniel L. Elsberg, former Senator and president of the National Republican Club, rose to the station of thanks extended to the Governor and said:
Big Demonstration Result.
It was at the end of his speech and in the last minutes of the meeting that the demonstration of the night occurred. Samuel S. Koenig, chairman of the committee, under whose auspices the Governor spoke, had said that this city "hailed the Governor as the great leader of the party and assured him that no where in the State would be find more loyal supporters than in New York."
Then Mr. Koenig called on Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia, sent in a box, who had listened with interest to his deep appreciation for his address," said Dr. Butler. "What we have heard tonight is the direct story, simply told, of a faithful stewardship to the people, of promises fulfilled. It reveals our American government at its best.
"In three words the Governor has written the next State platform; these are 'performance versus talk.' There are those among us whom we justly call demagogues, who constantly pander down to the ignorant, envy, malice and all uncharisability; and there are those among us whom we gladly call statesmen, who appeal to intelligence, to human sympathy and to people of understanding.
"It may be that the Providence which rules our destines is shortly to ask the people of this State to enter upon a contest between a statesman and a demagogue. I for one welcome the call to battle. The bugle that shall summon us to such a contest will only precede by a few short weeks shouts of a people's victory."
The reference obviously was to W. R. Hearst.
There was tremendous applause. It
5 CIVIL RIGHTS SUITS AGAINST HILL-WARE CO.
Because the Hill-Ware Co., operating a bakery and restaurant at 310 Lenox avenue, refused to serve them on April 20. Dr. Benjamin T. Withers of 152 West 131st street, and Samuel Price of 288 West 137th street, have filed suits under the Civil Rights law for $500 each for damages because of said refusal. Counselor Robert Latimore represents the plaintiffs and suits have been filed in the Seventh District Court.
Counsellor Lattimore has also filed three suits, for $500 each, for Anderson Campbell, 2991 Seventh avenue, Freed Lowery, 65 State street, Albany, and Miss Alfarata Miller, 247 Second street, Albany, respectively, who were refused service by the same company on Arpil 24th.

lasted several minutes. All of the 1,500 or more men and women in the audience were on their feet applauding and shouting. It dwarfed the applause, which greeted the Governor when he first appeared. Nathaniel L. Elsberg, formerly Senator and president of the National Republican Club, rose to second the motion of thanks extended to the Governor and said:
"The Governor tells us that the Republicans of New York can go forward with confidence into the next campaign. I ask him whenever was 'Hamlet' played without the presence of Hamlet on the stage?
Lincoln's Words of Grant.
"Lincoln said of Grant, 'I can't spare this man. He fights.' If I see the signs of the times and read them right, and the wave is getting greater importance every day, the people are going to say to Gov. Miller we can't spare this trip; he fights. And what is more, he compulsion what he fights for himself and many others."
At the governor's office, the governor is leading on the political situation, although the only words on the subject during his long address. He said:
"I think that because I have an abiding faith in the intelligence of the people of this State, and I know that you can make the appeal in the campaign which you are now laying the foundation for upon grounds which are unanswerable, that you can stand upon the rock of solid performance and will not need to excuse or apologize for broken promises or for non-performance.
"The interest which you manifest tonight tells me that you are going into the campaign with vigor and with confidence. Let the dead past bury the pats. Set your eyes ahead. Look to the future and move forward with confidence and you will certainly disperse the enemy."
As Leaders. See It.
It was accepted by the Republican leaders who discussed the speech after the meeting as almost a forgone conclusion that the Governor was ready to accept another nomination and was only waiting his time to announce his stand. His speech could not be interpreted in any other way. Prior to the arrival of Governor Miller, who was entertained at dinner at the National Republican Club, the County Republican Committee held its regular business meeting, at which routine affairs were transacted. Miss Helen Varick Bowell, associate county chairman, and head of the women's committee, presided.
Gov. Miller's Speech.
In his speech, which was regarded by all who heard it as a campaign document, the Governor instanced the following as the great achievements of his administration:
1. Putting the site on a businesslike basis and effecting promised economies.
2. Developing the state's water power under state control.
3. Adopting a real social welfare program.
4. Enacting the most progressive, liberal and just workmen's compensation act in the country.
Referring to housing and transit, the Governor declared that the solutions of the two problems were interwoven, and that the Hylan administration, despite its policy of obstruction and destruction, could not delay the distribution of the congested population to the suburbs by a unified transit system for a single fare.
Obstruction Hylan's Only Policy.
The Governor reminded his heaters that at the time of the creation of the Transit Commission the cry was set up that it would establish an 8-cant fast. He pointed out that it had been at work a year and had held its pawn on the table and that the Hyden administration still continued to obstruct.
"I think the eight-cent fare myth has been dispatched," continued the Governor, "and there was just as much truth in that propaganda as in much that you are likely to hear between now and now November. You know how acute the situation was growing. We could have dealt with it another year or all another, and it would have still grown more acute, but there was a glitch to perform, a public duty on our behalf as it did the administration.
the Legislature or the Governor had any right to stop to play politics with that, to refrain from discharging its duty merely for political expedency.
It is appalling when you stop to think what will happen in this town if some relief is not, specially obtained. Your existing facilities are more than increased, as you know, and the travel is increasing every day at the rate of 6000 a day. If you could begin to memorize the necessary extensions and new lines, it would be years, as you know, before they could be built. I am appalled at what you will have to suffer even if we could make the most haste possible.
"So it seemed to me that that was a situation which did not admit of temperating an athlet; it was necessary to substitute action for talk. Now you have had a year of this commission of your own citizens, two of them Democrats. What have they done? They certainly have not given you the eight-cent fare which was charged they were created for, but they have been pro-coding, not by proclamation, but by investigation. Instead of issuing harmless fulminations attacking the "interests" they have been investigating the rights of the people and ascertaining all of the facts. And they have been doing it in open day, all of the cards laid out face up, for every citizen of this community, if he is interested, to ascertain the facts.
Sums Up Board's Work.
"That is the difference between talk and performance. A plan for the unification of the system and its acquisition by the city, the plan for new subways and extensions," improved service on existing lines—I think that is quite an accomplishment for only one year." The Governor, amid tremendous applause from his audience, which was made up of members of the New York County Republican Committee, and men and women prominent in public and business life, called attention to the fact that during the previous four years of the Hylan administration there had been nothing but talk.
After he was introduced by President Koenig, the Governor outlined the plan of the next state campaign.
In the campaign which will be conducted next Fall you can go before the people upon a platform of achievement, upon a platform of performance," said the Governor. "You will not need to make any excuse or apologies for things that have not been done. You will not need to take the defensive, but you can enter the campaign on the aggressive, paying little heed to the misrepresentations which you probably will have to meet, by standing squarely upon the record of what your party has accomplished in this state while it has been in complete control of both branches of the state government.
Economy Pledge Kept
"We promised the people two years ago that if intrusted with power we would reduce the cost of government. Everbody in this country is coming to realize what an important bearing the cost of government has upon the prosperity of the people and upon the well-being of all of us. That promise was so thoroughly redeemed last year that our. Democratic opponents said we had gone too, far, that we had not made sufficient provision for the support of government. But in preparation for the coming campaign their official spokesman has recently asserted that the assertion of economics was false, that no such thing had been done. "Some kind friend told me today Democrat evidence on that subject. Government of the Comptroller of the City of New York, and I think I need go no further than to call him as a witness. I want to call your attention to the exhibit while he himself has supplied.
"Last year the budget of the City of New York increased from $216,000,000 in round numbers to $233,000,000. This is from the statement from the Comptrollers office, which I am reading. The taxes of the City of New York increased from $37.60 per capita to $39.80 per capita. That is for the city budget. The state taxes borne by the City of New York decreased from $230,000,000 to $144,400,000 and the decrease per capita was from $183 to $24.7.
Burden on Taxpayers.
"Now, for proof of his assertion that the claim 'M economy was false,' the chairman of the Democratic State Committee appealed to the man in the street and asked him whether his taxes had been decreased or his rent reduced—because in the last analysis, of course, direct taxes fell upon the rent payers, when economic laws are not suspended as they have been during the recent housing crisis. Well, if the taxpayers and the rent payers have not felt the reduction in their taxes it is due to the fact that the city administration absorbed the saving of $7,500,000 of state taxes and added to it an additional increase of $17,000,000 in city taxes. And while doing that, mind you, as you know, they left a deficit of $2,000,000 for the support of your schools.
"Everyone knows that in public affairs, as well as in business, we had both passing through a period of extravagance, or inflation, of extravagant expenditure, and there was precisely the same opportunity in your city to effect a reduction in your tax budget as there was in the state, with this exception, that the opportunity was here several times greater because your expense can so much greater. So that, upon the evidence, which certainly is unimaginable, the case which we claim is established, and the reason on which the democratic appeal is made convicts their own administration of the grossest extravagance of the public funds." We claim that while reducing the cost of government we have more efficiently discharged every public duty and that every activity of the state resulting in good to the public has been carried on with greater and still greater efficiency."
Bewer Policy Benefits People.
Governor Miller then took up the question of water power, and described the policy adopted as one to encourage the investment of capital, and encourage private initiative to undertake the development, but to do it under such terms as would assure to the public the benefit of the widest distribution of power, at a proper price to the consumer. And so rejecting the claims of the companies on the one hand and of others interests on the other, who would be unable to natural resources to support" constituted the Governor.
Voorhees School Closes Its 24th Year With Enthusiasm
Splendid Exercises Feature Ending of School Year- Seven Graduates Hear Notable Addresses by Rev. Dr. Gibbes and G. Croft Williams
Denmark, S. C.—Wednesday, May 17th, 1922 marked the close of the school year of Voorhees Normal and Industrial Institute for 1921-22. Every one connected with the Institution, from the principal to the least student, has just cause to rejoice because of the success which has been attained during the year just closed. From its founding in 1897 by the late Mrs. Elizabeth Wright-Menafee, to the present day, Voorhees has grown steadily and surely year by year until it now occupies a very distinct, unique and important place in the educational system of South Carolina.
One of the best normal and industrial schools in the entire Southland, Voorhees deserves the patronage and support of the people throughout the state. To Send boys and girls to Voorhees to be educated is to place them where their very best qualities will be drawn out and developed along lines moral, spiritual, industrial and intellectual. A corp of competent and willing instructors and teachers are always on duty at this institution who do their work willingly and well. Special stress is placed upon agriculture and farm life which makes Voorhees just the school for boys and girls from the farm.
The Exercises
The commencement exercises were begun on Sunday afternoon, May 14th when a splendid, inspiring and practical commencement sermon was preached by the Rev. Kno, C. Gibbs of Clafin University, Orangeburg, S. C. Promptly at 1:45 the school cadets formed in line, led by the school's excellent brass band. To its martial strains they marched to Redford Hall, where the young lady students, attractively uniformed, with members of the faculty and distinguished guests, joined the line of march which proceeded to Kennerly Hall Chapel, where the services were held.
The introductory services consisted of a melody by the congregation, the reading of the old Psalm and prayer by the chaplain, Rev. T. L. Jones, and the singing of Gounod's "Sanctus" by the choir, with Mrs. J. G.-M. Curtright at the piano. Principal E. R. Robert, with appropriate E. R. presiding, gave Gounod a speaker for the occasion who held the attention of his audience throughout his discourse. Other thrilling musical numbers were beautifully rendered after the sermon.
Class Night Exercises
Monday night, May 15th, students faculty and friends assembled in the chapel to enjoy the class program. Each number, musical and literary, was interesting and pleasing. Among the special features was the oration, "Heritage, Environment, Will, the Three Arbiters in Human Deatty." by Wm. G. Roberts. Paul C. Jones of the 1923 class made the fitting response in behalf of his class. Despite the heavy downpour of rain all day Tuesday and on into the night the appointed hour found a representative audience present to witness oratory and drama. After the number the following named judges were announced; Rev Dr. Cottingham of the A. M. E. Church, Ramberg, Prof. Punckney, principal of Bamberg public school, and Mrs. S. Bacon Collins of Edgefield head of the English department of Bettis Academy.
The speakers and their subjects were: G. Alberta McPherson, "A Spotless Sheet"; O. Woodrow Wright, "The Birth of a New Race"; L. Ruth Gulden, "The Negro Girl and her Future"; T. Goodsel Brown, "The Coming of True Democracy"; L. Richard Twiggs, "The Price of Freedom"; B. Talferton Sirmans, "The Cost of the Civilization of the Negro"; H. Walker Peters, "Will America Repent"; Mrs. Collins, who announced the decision of the judges, stated that it was hard for them to make a distinction between speakers in some situations but when they announced the decision the hearty and prolonged applause showed that the audience approved of it. The winners were: H. W. Peters, first honor; L. R. Twiggs, second honor; G. A. McPherson, third honor, the prizes being $5, $3, and $2, respectively.
Among the enjoyable numbers on Tuesday evening's program was a solo, "O Divine Redeemer" by little Miss Catherine Holman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jas Holman of Denmark. Mr. Brooks, head of the department of veterinary surgery, presided at the piano. After the regular program Principal Roberts called upon each of the judges for impromptu speeches.
Commencement Day.
ednesday morning dawned with low henging, threatening, clouds much in evidence, but about noon. Old Sol made his appearance and by two o'clock the hour for the exercises, a large audience had assembled.
The beautiful music by the hand and the grand march to the chapel by graduates, students, teachers and friends was witnessed and enjoyed by the large assembly. The first twenty-minutes after assembling in chapel were devoted to a practical display and
should get a fair return upon every dollar honestly invested in the enterprise, but that the state itself should reserve the complete control of the distribution of that power and the fixing of the price of the power to the consumer." The Governor reviewed the numerous child welfare acts signed by him and declared that these provided for the real well-being of the people. He said he had been called many hand names by bailiffs and theologists for not enacting "their visionary and impractical schemes."
Next he took up the labor legislation enacted during his administration, and rebutting to one of the man yelah laws signed by him, the amended women's compensation act, he called attention to the fact that at the hearing in the Executive Chamber the representatives of yelah said "it was framed by the friends of labor."

demonstration by the several industrial departments, the audience being given a 'real View as to how efficiently and well the students are trained in domestic science, sewing, laundering, nurse-training, handicrafts, printing, dairying, agriculture, carpentry, brick-masonry, blacksmith, wheelwrighting, electrical engineering, etc.
Then came the processional: The four young ladies and three young men of the graduating class marched into music by Mr. Brooks and found their places; after which Chaplain Jones conducted the opening exercises.
The speakers were: Salutatorian, 'Albertha R. Johnson, Simpsonville, S. C. Who Merits the ePalm, let him wear It'; Wm. L. McKinley Baxter, Blairs, S. C.—'The Dawn of a New Age'; Wm. G. Roberts, Woodbine, Ga.—'Spanning the Chasm'; Valedictorian-Luraine Williams, Barnwell, S. C.—'Wither Bound?' The other members of the class were Mary E. Smith of Spartanburg, S. C.; James C. Gripper, of Jacksonville, Fla., and Elizabeth E. Dowling of Denmark, S. C.
The commencement address was delivered by G. Croft Williams, of Columbia; Mr. Williams announced as his subject, "The Art of Living Together." His discourse from beginning to end was filled with sound, practical common sense advice and admonition, which cannot but prove helpful to the members of the graduating class and to all who heard him. The speech had the right ring to it; not only that, but Mr. Williams practices what he teaches and preaches. He is one of the foremost welfare worker of the southland and is deeply concerned about the welfare of all the people, white and black.
Principal Roberts presented diplomas and certificates to the graduates, and presented prizes to winners in the oratorial contest and to other students.
Dr. R. Shaw Wilkinson, president of State College, Orangesburg, was presented to the audience and spoke of Voorhees and the excellent work which it is doing. He paid glowing tribute to the founder, to Princaal Roberts and Treasurer Menafea.
The musical renditions on Wednesday were of a high and inspiring nature. Among the selections were; "How Lovely are thee Messengers," from Mendelssohn; "St. Paul," and "Gloria in Excelsis," from Movart's Twelfth Mass. Miss Helen B. Lee of Cambridge, Mass., secretary to treasurer Menafet, presided at the piano on this occasion.
Another milestone has been passed in the history of Voorhees and the pathway for the future looks bright and promising. One seeking to find the secret of Voorhees progress and success will find, first, that its founder hid a safe, found foundation by making friends with the people who surround the school, both white and colored, then launched out and made many strong friends in other states, North and South. Second, the institution was fortunate in its early life to secure as its treasurer and general manager, Martin A. Menafe, whose wise head, warm and sympathetic heart and strong hands have guided it safely through sunshine and storm through all these years. Thingly, by his tact and skill and the earnest co-operation of his fellow trustees, Mr. Menafe has been able to keep all departments of the school filled by men and women who are specialists along their particular lines and who have rendered excellent service.
The school has as its executive head a man who is well prepared in every particular to execute the duties that devolve upon him as principal, a man experienced and consecrated to the work before him. Dr. E. R. Roberts.
On Wednesday night the annual concert, sponsored by J. L. Simmys, the school's efficient bookkeeper, was enjoyed by the large audience.

HAMPTON ANNIVERSARY
POKERED BY MANY GIFTS
(By WM. ANTHONY AERY).
Hampton, Va.-Wm. Howard Taft, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, and president' of the Hampton Institute board of trustees, announced at the closing public meeting of the Institute's fifty-fourth anniversary the gift of $25,000 from an anonymous donor for an organ which will be placed in the Robert Curtis Ogden Auditorium as a memorial to the late Dr. Hollis B. Frissell, who served as principal of Hampton from General Armstrong's death in 1893 until his own death in 1917.
Chief Justice Taft also announced the gift of $15,000 from Mrs. Henry A. Strong of Rochester, N. Y., for a home-economics practice-house. He stated that while Hampton Institute has a permanent endowment funds of $47,000,000, there is need for more funds.
Chief Justice Taft will continue to serve as the president of the Hampton board of trustees.
On behalf of Mrs. John S. Kennedy of New York, Dr. William Jay Schiefelin, a Hampton trustee, presented in Hampton Institute a dormitory for twelve teachers and fifty girls which Mrs. Kennedy provided as a memorial to her husband, who was also a life-long, friend of Hampton Institute, Dr James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, acting for Chief Justice Taft, accepted Mrs. Kennedy's gift. He stated that in case of need it could be converted, in part, into a hospital.
Dr. Gregg announced the selection of Arthur P. Dava of Hampton, Va., the ranking scholar of the senior class, as the valedictorian, and John H. Calhoun, Jr., Greenville, S. C., the second scholar, as adjutorian.
Gift of Armstrong Field.
The graduates and former students of Hampton Institute presented to the board of trustees, through William M. Reid, Hampton 770, president of the Alumni Association, an athletic field and named it in honor of Gen. Samuel Chappan Armstrong, who founded Hampton in 1808. Hamptonians plan to spend $30,000 to make this athletic field to conform to all modern requirements. The field was accepted by Chief Justice Taft for the Hampton board of trustees.
Dr. James E. Gregg, principal, paid a tribute to Charles H. Williams, Hampton '09, director of physical education for boys, who served as chairman of the executive committee which solicited funds for development of Armstrong Field. Hampton graduates and former students at Tukegee gave $1,200 on a pledge at Tukegee.
The trustees elected J. Henry Scattergood of Philadelphia as a trustee to succeed the late William W. Frazier, Mr. Scatterwood was graduated from Haverford College in 1896 and from Harvard in 97. He is the creatureur of Haverford College and of Christiansburg Institute at Cambia, Va. Institutions which have been developed through the influence and support of the Friends. George Power Peabody. Hampton's senior trustee, presented to trustees the new guest house which has been erected from the Palmer Fund. Mr. Peabody stated that some years ago General Palmer turned over to him some funds, with a request that these funds be used from time to time for the advantage of Hampton Institute. All the Hampton buildings and classes were thrown open to inspection, including the Whittier Training School, the Trade School, the agricultural exhibit and projects, the home-Economics School and Academy classes, and the Shellbanks Farm.

The Graduating Addresses.
The addresses and demonstrations by members of the graduating class were received with enthusiastic applause by a large company of representative men and women. Richard Wilson Howe of Wilmington, N. C., spoke on "The Negro and His Songs". Clara E. Majors of Lynchburg, Va., demonstrated methods of preserving milk. The interest of farmers in co-operative buying was reflected in "A Demonstration Agent at Work", presented by three Hampton seniors—Walter L. Webb, Semeca, S. C. Joshua W. Williams, Lightfoot, Va., and James A. Harris, Honore, Ark.
That several attractive waists could be made from a single, plain pattern, which had been carefully drafted, was clearly demonstrated by Florence I. Wilson of Hampton, Va. The distinctive wearing advantages of rift flooring over flat-grain flooring were clearly stated by Milton Jerome Carr of Baltimore, who gave an illustrated talk on the sawing of lumber for high and low grade work. Since the home-maker is a consumer, she must estimate cost, qualities, and values and relate the family expenditure to the family income, declared Mahir M. Stephen of Hampton, Va., in her demonstration. "Art Applied to home-making." After seeing this demonstration, Mrs. Henry A. Strong of Rochester, N. Y., decided to give $15,000 to Hampton Institute for a home-economics practice-house.
"Hampton's Idea of Educated Men and Women as I Have Learned It" was outlined by John H. Calhoun, Jr. of Greenville, S. C., salutatorian, H. Peyton Brown, of McAlpine, W. Va., described her experience, while still a student at Hampton Institute, as a nurse, marron, and sewing teacher at the Virginia Industrial Home School for Colored Girls in Hanover County. This Hampton girl was given the opportunity of assisting Superintendent Janie Porter Barrett at the Industrial Home School. Ardur P. Davis of Hampton, Va., valedictorian, told the story of his grandfather's relation to the American Missionary Association, which made possible the establishment of Hampton Institute in 1868.
ELMIRA, N. Y
Elmira, N. Y. —The anniversary which was held at Bethel A. M. E. Church was a most wonderful success. All the churches united their forces and made one great time for the pastor, Rev. H. D. Lowber. Rev. Lowber has successfully completed his first year here. The writer is sorry to say that our good people of Elmira do not value a good preacher. We don't do our every duty; we don't see our failures until the good minister is gone. Rev. Lowber went to conference with every claim paid in full. Services were largely attended at Monumental Baptist Church Sunday

Perfume and highly scented talcum powder will
not disguise or hide perspiration and body odors. Even
bathing every day will not destroy these disagreeable

A French chemist has invented a delightful cream
by the use of which youcan keep your body as fresh

French means “My Secret.” :

Mon Secret is truly a

Governor Cameron Morrison of North
Carolina is deterrmined that his name
shall go down in history as the author
oi some notable, feat of sxatecraft ac-
convpltshéd. in behalf of the state. of
[witich he 1 the chief executive. Hav-
‘ing failed in his eMort to secure the
retum of a Negro fugutive from Can-
ada, 10 that he might be turned over
to the activities of a mob bent on lynch
law, the Governor decided that his name
should go thundering dawn shrough the
ages a1 declining to appoint any Ne-
groes as notaries public in the state. He
declared that no appointments of this
character will be made or commissions
of Negroes renewed during his term of
office. *
‘Vuis farsighted aid mazrificent stroke
of, statesmanship on the part of the
Governor has not received the recomni-
tien and appreciation that he expected
on the part of the white press.” The
Raleigh Times frankly admits that, it
“never met a subject that we cared
lesa about discussing.” and added “To
deny a considerable portion of the
State's population the right to conduct
their own buviness affairs isn't just.
And we are confident that the over~
whelming majority of the people of
North Carolina will at once realise the
injustice of it.” The Kinston Free Press
says it “cannot endorse any such blan-
ket race discrimination. It sees no ob
jection to a few representative Negroes’
(eing appointed notaries in order to)
serve members of their race, and it docs
not believe that an arbitrary attitude
such as the Governor Is reported to have
taken reflects any credit upon him or
bis par.”
Among the well known menibers of
the race in North Qhrolina, who will
Mic sMigeAiT of their notarial powers
through the Governor's action are men-
tioned J. B. Dudley and Berry O'Kelly
of Method. It is a peculiar coincidence
that the former is the president of the
Agricultural and Technical College of
Greensboro, and that at the commence:
ment exercises of this institution held
May 25, an address was announced. hy
“His Excelience, Governor Cameron
Morrison,” as a part of the program
It 1s to be hoped’ that the Governor told
the students and audience assembled why
the president of this state imstitutien
upon which improvements casting mere
than ene thundred thousand collare are
hang made. is deemed ineligible to 4
commission as notary’ public.
It cannot be that President Dudley
has rendered himself personally unpop-
plar ta the Democratic leaders «f North
Carolina, as his calling and election were
seemingly made sure by his advice to
the colored women of the State wme
ime ago to keep out of politics and not
eek to exercise the sights conierred
ypon them by the Ninetecnth amend
ment.
After Governor Mornson has explain-
nd why he considers Dr. Dudley and
he others of tis race unfit to adminis-
cr oaths and to take acknowledgemems
«0 deeds and other legal papers, the
pitblre and press of Nosh Carofma

| ‘Within fifteen days, that is to sey from May 6 to May 20,
eight Negroes have been lynched, six of them burned at the stake
and two of them panged. Five of these burnings took place in
the state o {Texas and one in the state of Georgia. Both hangings
took place in the state of Texas, We have here an intolerable
situation for a civilized country, a situation which cannot "be™al-
lowed to continue. . .
The Dyer Anti-Lynching Dill, whieh seeks to remedy this sit-
uation is now pending in the ‘Senate. Newspapers feport that
the State Committee on Judiciary, which has the Bill in‘ hand,
will report it unfavorably. ‘The members of the Cammittee are
quibbling over the constitutionality of the measure and while they
are quibbling mobs are continuing to défy and overthrow the law
land to heap shame and disgrace ‘upon the Nation,
What does the Senate of the United States propose to do
about it? Does the-Senate feel that it can throw of itn responsi-
bility by merely saying the bill is unconstitutional? Is it cnough
for the Senate to say that the question involved is a matter of
States’ rights and should be left to the States? The fact is, certain
States at least have proved beyond all doubt that they are in-
capable of dealing with the form ol crime tu which this Bill
relates. rs
The duty of the United States Senate, at this moment, trans-
cends the splitting of hairs aver the questions of constititionality.
The Senate is faced by grim and terrible conditions. and net by
theories, What sort of statesmanship is it which says that accord:
ing to the theories of our Constitution the States should be left
to deal avith conditions which they have shown themselves power-
Jess to deal with? 3
The irony of the situation is that the members of the Judiciary
Committee have, at sometime in their liver, heen lawyers of one
sort or another and in considering this measure, which’ they are
ready to dectare unconstitutional. they are not looking at the Con-
stitution itself but at a long series of decisions laid down by varios
judges. They are looking upon, these decisions: as a heathen
lonks upon a fetish, that is with superstitious awe and reverence.

NEW TACTICS IN HAITI.
The latset dispatches from Haiti report that the ‘Haitians
have resolved to deiy American rule by “passive war.” ‘They have
tried two other methods of regaining their independence and snv-
ercignty, Some of the braver natives of the country armed them:
selves and took to the hills shortly after American occupation
and did what they could for three of jour years to regain by force
what had heen lost. The contest was unequal, when it came to a
matter of force America was too strong, The small revolutionary
force of Haitians was completely crushed.
The political and intellevtnal leaders of Maiti have tried meth-
ods of petition and protest. The yhave orgamzed the Patriotic
Union, whose purpose it was to wor kfor the testuration of Hai-
tian independence. They sent a delegation to the United States
to place their just grievances belure the Administration, the Con-
gress and the American people. With the aid of their American
friends the people.of the United States have been made acquainted
with the actual facts regarding our seizure of the Haitian Republic
and a great deal of sentiment for justice to Haiti has been aroused.
The question is now being fonght over in the Senate, but as yet
the American government seems to be as far off from giving Haiti
back to the Haitians as it was under the Wilson administration.
Now the Haitians are going to try a third method. They are

THE RESULTS OF GENOA.
The conference at Genoa has closed. On the whole Me enous
conierence. may be ¢alled a failure. . The conference was'called to
undertake the re-estabhishment of economic stability in Europe.
Nothing effective was done toward that end. .
This failure may be ascribed to the refusal of the United
States to participate more than to anything else; and the refusal of
the United States was based almost entirely on the attitude of this
gorerrmieat toward Russia, We are standin goff and holding up
to Russia the “moral code” according to which she must live be-
fore we can assdciate with her, This attitude does. not take into
account. that the present government in Russin which <¢ refuse
to recognize “has endured for five years and so far as can be for-
seen will endure for a good many years to come.
As a matter of common sense we have nothing to do with the
form of government in Russia, it is our business onfy to recognize
the government which actually exists and governs.
ut awhy all this holy horror of the Rusisan government?
Were we not on intimate terms with the benighted government
of the Iate Czars? Are ye not now onvintimate terms with the
government of the terrible Turk? The explanation will be found
in a study of American investments in Russia.
But back to the general conférence, the conference failed
even to impress on the nations most concerted any economic
lesson at all. Take France for instance, a recent dispatch from
Paris gives the French budget for 1923. This budget provides
for expenditures amounting to more than -23,000)000,000 francs
with the receipts amdunting to only a Httle morethan 19,000,000,-
000 franes, . : ;
Rut the movt astounding figures in the hudget are those
which show that the expenditures for the Army and Navy are in-
creased, the former by 234 million franes and the latter by 323
million. ‘The total Army and Navy appropriations are $,144,000,-
000 iranés. The enly judgment one can form iro mthege figures is}
that Europe is mad and rushing headion gto destruction,
CHINA'S ‘ANTI-CHRISTIAN REVOLT...
[Reprinted from last week because of transposition of lin¢s,
which caused mixup im meaning.
Disnatches under date. of several weeks ago from Peking,
China, give accounts of an anti-Christian movement which has
heen put under way by students in universities and ‘schouls in
China, It is said that declarations have been issued by many
studeat organizations condemning missionary efforts in this coun-
try and speaking out particularly against Christianity, One. of
the statements against Christianity as published in a dispateh
reads as foilows: *
“cat all religions Christianity is. we feel, the most
detestable, One sin which Christianity is guilty of and
which particularly makes our hair rise on end is its collu-
“son with militaricm and capitalism, Realizing that China
has long’ been an object of exploitation of the capitalistic
and imperialistic countries of the world, Christianity is
uulizing the opportunity te extend its influence. It is the
intelligence alticer of the capitalists and the hireling of
the capitalistic countries.”
Aside from any oi the benefits which Christianity may confer
upon the Chinese it must he admitted that in a great measure
the above indictment is true. Much of the spread of imperialism
was effected in the name of the spread of Christianity.
«Must of the colwnies of the nations of the Ohl World were
acquired in the following manner: Missionaries were sent out to
Christianize the heathen people and when for obvious reasons the
heathen felt that the Christian was not living up to all of his
teachings and :-ofessions. and when this feeling perhaps resuited
in the theawing of a few cones at the mrisison hausé and the
smashing of a few windows, the missionaries immediately cabled
home and warships were premnptly diepatched to protect the mis:
tonanies and missions aml eventually t seize the heathen coun-
tr ‘
This has heen done over and over again and the people of
the imperialistic nation. steal for it hecause it was done in the!
name of spreading and protecting the Christian religion,
We feel, however. there is another angle to these dispatches
from Peking, “Chika is at, present emgaged in a civil war, and
these dispatches may he a part of the usual diplomatic method of!
lasing a inundation for interference. If the smcalled Christian
nations feel ‘that they miust interfere in China they will want a
good reaser far doing so and oie of the best reasons that has yet
heen tried 1s the protection of Christian missionaries in a heathen
land.

Realizing the need of more thorough training in the course in harmony, theory, composition and counterpoint with Dr. Hugh A. Clarke, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, and after three years' study he received a music diploma. At the age of fourteen he organized and conducted an orchestra, and also had a number of pupils. He helped to organize and was assistant director of the Municipal Band of St. Thomas, later on organizing and teaching his juvenile organization.
Since entering the United States fifteen service Mr. Adams has organized two more bands, stationed at other points on the Islands, so that he was, at a time, bandmaster of three groups. These are now scattered, through the detailing of the men to duty on board various ships, and the band at St. Thomas is the only one engaging his attention at this time.
This young Negro has made some valuable contributions to musical thought of the day, his articles on various phases of the art having been published in the Dominant, the Metrohome, both New York publications; the Musical Enterprise, Caden, the Army and Navy Musician, Elkart, Ind., and other leading journals in the United States and the West Indies. While in New York he is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Romeo L. Dougherty, 250 Union Hall street, Jamaica, Long Island.

SIX NEGRO LEGAL RESERVE
LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
(Continued from first page.)
of Durham, the Standard of Atlanta, the Mississippi Life of Memphis, the Supreme Life and Casualty of Columbus, the Liberty Life of Chicago and the National Benefit of Washington, D. C.
A legal reserve company is one that maintains in liquid securities a fund called the reserve which is sufficient to meet all immediate claims and which will mature to an amount sufficient to meet all future claims. The reserve is estimated by the actuary according to the laws of the state in which the insurance is in force. A definite percentage of the reserve, a sum large enough to meet immediate losses, is deposited with the insurance commissioners of one or more of the states in which the company does business. The largest reserve maintained by a Negro company is $1,997.745 which the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company has set aside in gilt edge liquid securities for the safety of its policyholders. The remaining Negro legal reserve companies set aside like funds, though none of them is as large as that of the above mentioned company.
A single concern which maintains in one fund over one million dollars is capable of great good or untold harm. We are glad to report that the insurance companies exercise their strength along channels which make for race advancement and pride. The National Negro Insurance Association recently requested every Negro insurance company to send to the secretary of the association certain facts; as a result of which he was able to compile the following statement. The combined report of eleven Negro insurance companies showed for 1920:
Assets ..... $4,203,415.58
Insurance in force ..... 80,009,151.58
Claims paid ..... 3,512,985.02
Total claims paid since organization ..... 14,741,731.53
Think of eleven companies having paid out nearly fifteen million dollars in claims. Imagine the misery and pain such payments must have relieved.
Furthermore, consider what it means to have combined assets of over four million dollars. All of this money has to be invested. Do you know that it is largely invested in property owned by Negroes and in advancing Negro business? In the one year of 1921 the North Carolina Mutual made loans to Negro farmers of over $280,000. It was thereby able to save hundreds of farm bonds and houses held by our people. This is but one of the ways in which these companies aid our people.
It takes agents to write the business, clerks to record the businesses agents write and doctors to examine the applicants. All of which is a round about way of telling the facts in the case; namely, that life insurance companies afford work for probably ten thousand Negro men and women. The North Carolina Mutual alone employs 1,144 of our people.
But the insurance companies have seen further than any other Negro business with which we are acquainted. They are helping to educate men and

women to work in the field of insurance. When the National Negro Insurance Association met in Durham, October, 1921, it decided to seek means to teach insurance in our colleges. Following this desire of the association the North Carolina Mutual has endowed a chair for the teaching of insurance at Howard University. At this writing we understand that other companies are preparing to endow similar chairs at other colleges.
The life insurance companies have reached out beyond the mere selling of commodities. They are dealing in the protection of the family and the prolonging of one's usefulness beyond the short space of human life. At the same time they use the funds which are entrusted in their care to increase Negro property holdings, to give employment to members of our race, to help train efficient insurance agents and to protect the family. Could one organization render greater service than this? Think of fifty such concerns combined in one National Negro Insurance Association working to serve humanity. Can you longer hesitate giving your support to such concerns? Take out a policy today in a Negro life insurance company. It serves your family and your race in life and death.

COLORED VOTERS FORM LEAGUE AT DURHAM, N.C.
(Special to The New York Age)
Durham, N. C. At the Hunter Masonic Temple recently, a number of colored citizens met and organized the Colored Voters League. After a full discussion the prevailing sentiment was that in order for the Negro to render his beat and fullest services as a citizen, he should exercise the rights and privileges of citizenship accorded him under the law; and that his future political activities should be along independent lines, regarding men and measures rather than platforms and parties. It was voted to style the organization the Colored Voters League. Upon nomination, the following officers were elected: J. C. Scarborough, president; Dr. S. J. L. Warren, vice-president; R. McCant; Andrews, attorney; secretary; Dr. J. N. Mills, assistant secretary; William O'Kelly, treasurer. The following standing committees were named: steering committee committee on presidents; committee on women, publicity committee and committee on registration and voting.
The meeting was highly enthusiastic and all present subscribed amounts ranging from $100 down to maintain and perpetuate the organization. The outline of the organization as stated by its officers is that of promoting a more responsible citizenship among the coloured people of this community.
Services at H.A. were largely attended. Rev. D. Garner delivered an interesting sermon, subject "They shall not be ashamed that wait on the Lord." Rev.

The Parents' Association of P. S. 19 held its last monthly meeting on Thursday evening. May 18. Notwithstanding the stormy weather, the auditorium was well filled with parents and friends. The children rendered a musical program. Folk dances and an exhibition drill were well done and very interesting. A trip from New York to the Yosemite Valley, from there to Washington, then back to New York, was shown in moving pictures under direction of Miss Temper. The speaker of the evening was Captain, Patrick Gargan of the 38th Precinct, who talked seriously on the duty of mothers to children, and the support they should give the teacher. He emphasized cooperation. "Love your children," said the speaker, "and don't whip but punish them." He warned parents against letting their boys swim in the Harlem River or the North River, from 125th street up. Cap. Gargan also urged the boys not to build bonfires.
Mrs. Tupper told of the work of the school and thanked the mothers and the Association for the support given. A representative from the Washington High School gave a descriptive talk on domestic science as taught at that school. Fred R. Moore, president of the Association, presided.
