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.

Turner's statement is as follows: "As president of the Colored Men's Child Army, I attended the Invisible Empire." Together with two members of the League, I attended. At the close of his sermon to my surprise, I was invited to promote the benediction. The hymn, 'My Country, 'tis of thee,' was sung, and benediction said.

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.

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 (Continued On Reverenth Page) The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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."

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.

JAMES E. GREGG, Principal WARREN K. BLODGETT 4-5t-alt Director TEXAS SHOWS CAUSE. The people of Texas are showing cause why the Dyer bill should be enacted into law, so that the power of the Federal government could be invoked to restrain the excesses of mob murder and the barbary stain of the public burning of human beings. Following fast upon the triple burning at Kerlin came another burning last week at Texarkana, where the mob took a Negro from the Miller County jail, Arkansas side, dragged him at the end of a rope until he was dead and then burned the body in the downtown section. The New York Exciting Post asked a pointed question when it put the query in this fashion: Would the mob which burned three Negroes at Kirtun, Texas, on Saturday, May 6, have been so bent on its atrocity had it known that every participant who could be hunted out by Federal officers would be imprisoned for from five years to life? Would the sheriff had been so ready to hand over the keys of the jail had he known that failure to perform his duty fully would lay him open to a fine of $5,000 or five years imprisonment, or both? Would the county authorities be quite to acquiescent in this horror if they face a $30,000 fine immediately—$10,000 for each man? It is not to be expected that the United States Senate will be greatly moved by the consideration that Texas has had 204 lynching in the years from 1885 to 1919 but when it is appreciated that in taking the lives of those victims unconvected by the laws of any crime, the members of the mob committed murder, it will be seen that the unrestrained practice of lynching and burning at the stake is fast converting Southern communities into hordes of barbarians. Mob murder is contagious and this contagion is spreading to fast in the South as to constitute a moral epidemic. The immediate victim of the mob may be the Negro who is lambed, but the ultimate victim and the greatest sufferer is the community that commits the crime and glits over its commission. What can be expected of a community that regards a lynching as a festal occasion, and allows its women and children to witness and rejoice, over the torture of the mob's victim? If the State authority cannot or will not put a stop to the barbarities practiced in the name of lynchlaw, which has been pretty thoroughly demonstrated, it becomes the duty of the national government, in the cause of preservation of decency and civilization to intervene. If the South still had statesmen worthy of the name, they would see this fact and instead of opposing the Dyer bill, they would be the most insistent for its passage. Let the Senate pass the Dyer hill on the broad ground that the emergency now prevailed in the South demands drastic action. FOR DELINQUENT GIRLS. FOR DELINQUENT GIRLS. The importance of making some provision for the care and reclamation of delinquent girls cannot be too strongly stressed as a necessary feature of welfare work in all large communities. Especially is this true in a great city like New York, where no special provision is made for girls of the face who may be apprehended as first offenders for slight misdemeanors. Thrown in contact in the places of detention and in the courts with hardened offenders, the novice in delinquency is likely to become so steeped in the ways in which to make a return to the straight and difficult if not improbable. To meet this emergency an institution like the Sojourner Truth House was designed to afford a refuge and abiding place for those girls who might be restrained to decent living after a false belief through ignorance or error. The work of caring for these girls and helping them to regain a firm footing in useful members of society is a good idea and should appeal to the community in worthy of substantial support. A helpful staff of workers have given their lives and efforts to the task with most encouraging results. The need for such an institution has been thoroughly investigated by the work that has already been accomplished. Explain the services of the workers, abiding and food supplies are provided by the work that has already been accomplished. keep this work in operation. Every member of the race should consider it a duty to help a work of this kind to continue and to widen its field of operations. Contributions of any amount are solicited and will be welcomed by those in charge of the work. The names of the members of the board are a guarantee that the money given for this purpose will be devoted to the use proposed. The temporary closing of the Sojourner Truth House at 170 West 130th street has convinced those interested of the great need for this work and it is hoped that means will be provided for its early resumption. Full information will be given to inquirers as to how the girls are cared for and helped. The results that have been attained in this direction and the great need for future effort have been abundantly demonstrated. Let everybody unite to give the delinquent girl another chance to regain her self-respect and make a new start. GOVERNOR MORRISON'S FEAT GOVERNOR MORRISON'S FEAT. Governor Cameron Morrison of North Carolina is determined that his name shall go down in history as the author of some notable feat of statecraft accomplished in behalf of the state, of which he is the chief executive. Having failed in his effort to secure the return of a Negro fugitive from Canada, so 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 down through the ages as declining to appoint any Negroes 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. This farsighted and magnificent stroke of statemanship on the part of the Governor has not received the recognition 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 less about discussing" and added "To deny a considerable portion of the State's population the right to conduct their own business affairs isn't just. And we are confident that the overwhelming 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 blanket race discrimination. It sees no objection to a few representative Negroes being appointed notaries in order to serve members of their race, and it does not believe that an arbitrary attitude such as the Governor is reported to have taken reflects any credit upon him or his party." Among the well-known members of the race in North Carolina, who will be silent of their notarial powers through the Governor's action are mentioned 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 commencement exercises of this institution held May 25, an address was announced by "His Excellence, Governor Cameron Morrison," as a part of the program. It is to be hoped that the Governor told the students and audience assembled why the president of this state institution upon which improvements costing more than one hundred thousand dollars are being made, is deemed ineligible to a commission as notary public. It cannot be that President Dudley has rendered himself personally unpopular to the Democratic leaders of North Carolina, as his calling and election were seemingly made sure by his advice to the colored women of the State some time ago to keep out of politics and not seek to exercise the rights conferred upon them by the Nineteenth amendment. After Governor Morrison has explained why he considers Dr. Dudley and the others of his race unfit to administer oaths and to take acknowledgements to deeds and other legal papers, the public and press of North Carolina will no doubt be able to appreciate the grave and weighty reasons which prompted the Governor to refuse to appoint any Negroes as notaries. A vacant niche in the Southern Hall of Fame is undoubtedly yawning for Governor Cameron Morrison of North Carolina. Kelly Miller, in an article in the Philadelphia American recently said: Brazil has elected a Negro president. The United States may follow the example in the year 2222. If human brotherhood is the goal of all human striving, Brazil is three hundred years ahead of her Northern sister in the realization of that "One far off divine event, to which the whole creation moves." Prof. Miller is inclined to optimism, but he evidently does not expect the United States to more hastily in the direction of human brotherhood. All things are possible to the true believer, however. The editor of the Atlanta Independent made the following pertinent inquiry as to a recent appointment under the Department of Justice: What does Attorney General Daugherty mean by appointing Green F. Johnson, chief counsel for John S. Williams, the wholesale Jasper County murderer, Assistant Attorney General in Georgia, in view of the fact that he is best known as defender of murderers, contempt labor criminals and pornography? It may be that the appointment was made on the principle of acting a chief to coach a chief. As former defender of the criminals whom he will allow have to represent the new challenge with proper force to achieve his objective. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, MAY 27, 1922. A THREATENED REIGN OF TERROR. Within fifteen days, that is to say from May 6 to May 20, eight Negroes have been lynched, six of them burned at the stake and two of them hanged. Five of these burnings took place in the state of 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 allowed to continue. The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, which seeks to remedy this situation is now pending in the Senate. Newspapers report that the State Committee on Judiciary, which has the Bill in hand, will report it unfavorably. The members of the Committee are quibbling over the constitutionality of the measure and while they are quibbling mobs are continuing to defy and overthrow the law and 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 its responsibility by merely saying the bill is unconstitutional? Is it enough 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 incapable of dealing with the form of crime to which this Bill relates. The duty of the United States Senate, at this moment, transcends the splitting of hairs over the questions of constitutionality. The Senate is faced by grim and terrible conditions and not by theories. What sort of statesmanship is it which says that according to the theories of our Constitution the States should be left to deal with conditions which they have shown themselves powerless to deal with? The irony of the situation is that the members of the Judiciary Committee have, at sometime in their liver, been lawyers of one sort or another and in considering this measure, which they are ready to declare unconstitutional, they are not looking at the Constitution itself but at a long series of decisions laid down by various judges. They are looking upon these decisions as a heathen looks upon a fetish, that is with superstitious awe and reverence, a reverence which they do not merit. Anybody who knows the history of the Fourteenth Amendment and Bill of Rights knows also that the highest Courts of the land immediately brought into play all of the intellectual hair-splitting and sophistry that technical interpretation of law affords to nullify those measures. Any man of common sense reading the Fourteenth Amendment can see that it was the intention of Congress in passing it to protect the Negro in his newly acquired rights as freedmen. Congress rightly considered that these rights could not be left to the mercies of the government of those States in which the Negro had lately been a slave. The Amendment was passed and carried with itself the power of Congress to enforce it by appropriate legislation. The meaning is plain. It is only to a lawyer, lost in the mazes of legal constructions which were primarily designed to weaken, nullify and defeat the Amendment, that the meaning becomes vague and indefinite. The present situation places another responsibility upon the Senate. As I stated above, within two weeks eight Negroes have been lynched, six burned at the stake. If the Senate declares or admits that it can do nothing to remedy this condition of anarchy it will be tantamount to issuing a license to mobs that they can, with impunity, lychch and burn alive Negroes who are accused of crime and the probabilities are that there will follow a reign of terror, of bloodshed and of degenerate savagery. The colored people of the United States are today looking and wondering if there is not sufficient statesmanship in the American Congress to avert this threatened reign of terror. If they find there is not, if they find that the Government to which they have always given loyal allegiance cannot protect them in the most elementary and fundamental rights of citizenship, cannot protect them even in the constitutionally guaranteed right of a trial by due process of law, who could blame them if they questioned whether it was a Government worth serving worth fighting for and dying for. NEW TACTICS IN HAITI. The latset dispatches from Haiti report that the 'Haitians have resolved to defy American rule by "passive war." They have tried two other methods of regaining their independence and sovereignty. Some of the braver natives of the country armed themselves and took to the hills shortly after American occupation and did what they could for three or four years to regain by force what had been 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 intellectual leaders of Haiti have tried methods of petition and protest. The yhave organized the Patriotic Union, whose purpose it was to wor kfor the restoration of Haitian independence. They sent a delegation to the United States to place their just grievances before the Administration, the Congress 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 fought 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 going to try the method of non-cooperation used by Ghandi in India. In a cable to the Haiti-Santo Domingo Independence Society the leaders of the new movement said: "We shall decree civil disobedience, effective in eight days (May 25), as an indication of our protest against pseudo-Government of Louis Borno (newly elected President of Haiti), fundamentally illegal and sustained only by American bayonets.. American government has been notified." The program announces that a general boycott of all American goods has been agreed upon. This boycott is in protest against the American seizure of the Haitian treasury and the foregoing on the Haitian people, in spite of their protests, a loan of $40,000,000. I believe that the Haitians can accomplish much by this method but the ultimate success of their efforts is extremely doubtful. If the East Indians, numbering over 300 millions, covering vast areas, with their superior cohesive qualities and with the inspired leadership of a Caddis, after months have not been able to throw off the disobedience, the proponents are going to throw The conference at Genoa has closed. On the whole the Genoa conference may be called a failure. The conference was called to undertake the re-establishment 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 government toward Russia. We are standin goff and holding up to Russia the "moral code" according to which she must live before we can associate with her. This attitude does not take into account that the present government in Russia which we refuse to recognize has endured for five years and so far as can be foreseen 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 only to recognize the government which actually exists and governs. But why all this holy horror of the Rusian government? Were we not on intimate terms with the benighted government of the late Czars? Are we not now on intimate 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 conference, the conference failed even to impress on the nations most concerned 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 amounting to only a little more than 19,000,000,000 francs. But the most astounding figures in the budget are those which show that the expenditures for the Army and Navy are increased, the former by 234 million francs and the latter by 323 million. The total Army and Navy appropriations are 5,144,000,000 francs. The only judgment one can form from these figures is that Europe is mad and rushing headlong gto destruction.

It is said that declarations have been issued by many student organizations condemning missionary efforts in this country and speaking out particularly against Christianity. One of the statements against Christianity as published in a dispatch reads as follows: "Of 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 collusion with militarism and capitalism." Realizing that China has long been an object of exploitation of the capitalistic and imperialistic countries of the world, Christianity is utilizing the opportunity to extend its influence. It is the intelligence officer of the capitalists and the hireling of the capitalistic countries." Aside from any of the benefits which Christianity may confer upon the Chinese it must be 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. Most of the colonies of the nations of the Old 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 professions, and when this feeling perhaps resulted in the throwing of a few stones at the misison house and the smashing of a few windows, the missionaries immediately cabled home and warships were promptly dispatched to protect the missionaries and missions and eventually to seize the heathen country. This has been done over and over again and the people of the imperialistic nations stood for it because 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. China is at present engaged in a civil war, and these dispatches may be a part of the usual diplomatic method of laying a foundation for interference. If the so-called Christian nations feel that they must interfere in China they will want a good reason for doing so and one of the best reasons that has yet been tried is the protection of Christian missionaries in a heathen land. HARMONY AMONG REPUBLI CANS. The demonstration held by the Republican leaders of New York City that Friday night are Town Hall was indicative of restored harmony in the party ranks. More than this, it showed that these leaders have buried their former grievances and united in hearty support of Governor Miller for another term. Former State Senator Elsberg voiced the sentiment of the party, when he said in seconding a vote of thanks to the Governor for his address: "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 Hahlet on the stage?" "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 impetus every day, the people are going to say to Gov. Miller we can't spare this man; he fights.

Governor Miller in his address to the party workers told them that as "long as you stand steadfastly for the principles of the party and not yielding to expediency but working for solid achievement you may rest confident that in the long run you will make steady progress toward securing the support of the intelligent electorate."

He continued. "The management of the affairs of this State is like that of a huge corporation. It is merely a business affair, and the whole question of the result depends entirely upon whether there is efficiency or inefficiency, service or lack of service, and what we claim is 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." The Negro votes of New York State have no special cause to regard Governor Miller with favor, as he has completely ignored their existence as a factor of party strength. Nevertheless his efficiency as a state executive and firmness in holding to a fixed policy are to be admitted. Nathan L. Miller is one of the strongest executives that the Empire State has known. It looks as if the party will name him for a second term. RATIONAL ENFORCEMENT.

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 WILSON LAM TEACHER & VOICE JOURNAL A119 E. 130th St. N.Y.C. City First International Church On Broadway at 130th Street Street, New York, N.Y.

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. JERSEY RACE MEN TAKE ACTION ON CANDIDATES (Special to The New York Age) Newark, N. J.-L. a conference of colored Republicans from all sections of New Jersey, held Monday, May 22 at the Essex County Republican headquarters, 45 Academy street, with 200 men and women from sixteen of the twenty-one counties present, it was vowed to endorse the candidates of Senator Joseph Frelinghuysen for reelection and State Senator William N. Rumyon for election to the United States Senate. The resolution was adopted, 169 to 9, after a warm fight had been made by Rev. W. S. Smith of JerseyCity, W. H DePaur of Summit, and J. T. Cheshire of Newark against such action. Dr George E. Cannon of Jersey, chairman, presided, and made the keynote speech, extolling the two candidates. He cited a number of Federal appointments secured for the race by Senator Freihughesu, including positions in the Internal Revenue Service, never before given colored men.

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. Rick, who for the past year has been instructor of religious education, leaves in a few days to take charge of Lincoln Academy at Kings Mountain, N.C.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS last week's issue of The Age was introduced an article written by Heywood Broun, dramatic critic, of the New York World, in which he com-posed forly upon race segregation New York theatres, denominating it "implicit discrimination," and declaring that art ought to be at least one field in which the color line might readily dispense with." Mr. Broun's art is published in The World, evi- ciously aroused interest among Southern men, for in a later issue of the same he tells of a letter received from Southern lawyer, who takes issue with Broun's running comments on this matter are so interesting that The Age is reproducing it in full as a corollary as to the article published last week. Mr. Broun writes under his column question: "IT SEEMS TO ME." It does not seem possible to keep discussion of the relations between the white and the Negro races out of this column. "I read your article on the McKay incident" writes R. E. L., who identifies himself as a Southern lawyer, and I wonder if you'll be fair enough to read this little commentary—all of it. We have done so and we are accordingly depressed because the letter illustrates very forcibly the prevailing tendency to "disorderly thinking which makes all improvement in present day conditions so difficult. For instance, we wrote in protest against the practice of New York theatres in baring Negroes from orchestra seats and assigning them to the first balcony. R. E. L. writes to ask whether we want to have a black child. The color and number of the children in any given family seems to us to be strictly the concern of the parents, and we can't for the life of us what it has to do with the seating arrangements of Broadway theatres. Again we find in R. E. L. S. letter the extraordinary statement, "You must admit that the South is coping successfully with the Negro question." Of course, we will admit nothing of the sort. Indeed, we are baffled that anybody should have the hardship to make such a claim less than a week after the recent atrocity in Texas. As a matter of fact, the phrase "Negro question" is hardly adequate. It is not as much the "white question." We must consider ways and means to educate or toate those communities in which lynchings occur. It is unimaginable that certain sections of this country shall continue to believe that upon the theory that the only adequate answer to revolting crime is more crime. "If you intend to draw a line any where, write R. E. L. two of the South will show you where to draw to Draw it at the beginning. Accept an sanction no form of social equality. Your line of demarcation then must include the theatre, the dance hall, the restaurant, the hotel, the school the churches, the Pullman car, dining car &c. &c." This we find interesting, as it illustrates a certain attitude toward the church which would identify religion as a sort of spiritual table of love of nothing more than social significance. --- "If a Negro equates himself to my level," continues R. B. L. "I will meet him as an equal intellectually, but socially never." Society which depends upon anything but intellectual party seems to us of a importance. This is a distinction entirely too fine for our understanding. We can only guess as to our contender's meaning. We think that he intends to say that he cannot abide with the thought of interbreeding between the white and Negro races. Indeed he has an anecdote bearing upon this question. "Now, I know," he writes, "two Negro girls who couldn't be identified as Negroes in the little Southern town where they live except for the fact that everybody knew them. Their father and mother are militaries. Their father had some money that he had accumulated and big sent those girls up North to school. He never would say where and nobody cared especially. That was ten years ago and neither of those girls have come back yet. They are up here somewhere passing as white girls." As a matter of fact, we are not capable of being as acutely horrified over this tale as R. E. L., but even from this view we cannot quite get what wants to prove. It was not an accident of nature that the two young women happened to be so nearly white South and its citizens cut a ridiculous figure in raising such reactions that misgénition when palpably placed so frequently in the very cities which profess to regard it so much horror. It seems to us a little academic and pitting to be learn about whites and Negroes meet churches. Possibly they might there with lesser danger to the ex-peninsons of the South than in places not so sanctified. clincher R. E. L. hurts statistics us. "Let me give you a few that you probably did not know he says. "Over 90 per cent. proverbs are morons; that is, they mental age of about twelve or years." as a matter of fact there are statistics of that sort covering the race in America. Army figures, however they may be, would do more show a tendency. We don't know percentage of morons were found colored troops in the army. We together R. E. L. does, because it impression that the figures were given out. It is also trimmed the percentage for the white army up to some amazingly high between 50 and 60 per cent, so many of us are morons won't afford to be snobbish about become the universal practice to talk continually while a play is in progress and to repeat the lines immediately after the actor has said them. The theory that a man admits social equality with every one who sits down in a theatre with him seems to us to be carrying democracy much too far. CREOLE FOLLIES. REVUE AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE "Because of the success 'Shuffle Along' is having on Broadway, there will doubtlessly be numerous imitations of this show, dusting the next few years. And although this show has not yet closed its phenomenal run, a similar attraction along practically the same lines opened at the Lakaye theatre on Monday night, May 22nd, at the American run. With two 'Shuffle Along' companies and "The Creole Follies Revue" playing Greater New York at the same time, there is danger that this style of musical comedy will be overworked. Unlike "Shuffle Along," "The Creole Pollies Resue" has no story, but is a series of vaudville numbers, with several new songs and dances by a large and snappy chorus, it was gotten together by Quintard Miller, who, with Emnett Anthony, takes the leading comedy parts. Other well known stars taking part were Billy Higgins and B. E. Bowyer, Hudgins and Hudgins, Lula Whidby, Blanche Thompson, Freeman and Metelmy and W. F. Richardson. The musical numbers by Porter Grainger and Donald Heywood and the dancing were the principal features of the show. Besides those named above, the cast is composed of the following: Amie Smith Mills, Elma Alexander, Mace Jones, Eiffe Humphries, Josephine Curtis, Anne Freeman, Mildred Martine, Arnie McGimmy, Joe Loomis, Mac Jones, Mildred McCoom Aired Chester, James White, William Macwell, Dolores Mitchell, Peck Cragg, Laura Brown, Mary Lane, Roberta Lowers, Evelyn Davis, Ellie Peterman Ida Archer, Marguerite Brown, Travis Bachelore, Willie Johnson, Carry Braston, Agnes Anthony, Madelia Chance, Eiffe Mitchell, Josephine Curtis, and Mildle Johnson. "The Creole Folies Revue" has been playing to large audiences during the past week, and will continue at the Lafayette all next week. THE LINCOLN THEATRE Reed White, the Fox star, wields a "winked" cowbell, according to the leader of the big jazz orchestra which was engaged for the filming of the cabaret scene in Miss White's newest William Fox picture, "the Broadway Peacock", current at the Junction Theatre. Between scenes nothing delighted the popular star more than to sit on the drummer's chair and manipulate the various sound-producing devices that are peculiar to an up-to-the-minute jazz or orchestra. Several times she played drums with the orchestra while the other members at the cast, together with more than two hundred extra men and girls danced on the spacious studio floor of the William Fox plant in New York, where "The Broadway Peacock" was timed. She received hearts praise for her "work" from both the drummer and the orchestra leader, who assured her that it she ever abandoned her career as a picture star, she could easily make a comfortable living as a jazz drummer. Director Charles J. Brabin, much admired at the star's predilection for playing drums, admitted that it was a new place of her versatility. "The Broadway Parcock is an entracing story of the Great White Way in New York and relates the strange romance of a brilliant caterpillar performer." --- THEATRICAL JOTTINGS By BOB SLATER.

JUNIOR SPORTS REGORD (By JIMMIE WARD) Colored Athletes in Inter-high School Meet Three dusky athletes in the persons of Cecel Cook, Fred Handy and Charlie Majors, all of DeWit Clinton High School, added five points each towards their school's total in the fifth annual Inter-High School championship meet, held under the auspices of the Polytechnique Institute (Joly Prep) held on Saturday, May 20th, at Dyker Heights, Brooklyn. Majors easily won the high jump with his feet seven and a half inches. Little competition was offered him. After winning he dressed and left several of his competitors at the bar jumping for third and fourth places. Cecil (Raber) Cook, for cracker man, performed a remarkable feat of gameness, by winning the 440-race race with a twisted ankle. Cook's right ankle had been twisted before he journeyed to the field. He had received not to compete, but the earnest appeal of his team-mates forced him to do so, much against his will. Van Allen of Curtis High School was the only man for whom he had any worry, and he told Allen of his injuries, and that he Allen, would be the winner. For some unknown reason, Allen refused to run in this event. Cook took things easily and came second in the trial heat. Then came the never to be forgotten final heat. Six men faced the starter. At the crack of the gun, Cook was up and digging hard to get the lead, which he secured after the first hundred yards. At the 220-mark mark, he had a bigger lead, and finished eight yards ahead of the second man, covering the distance in 53.1-5 seconds. This is kind of grat that gives our runners a good name. Cook had to run, and he did, and those who saw the race could hardly believe that there was anything wrong with his ankle, but on close observation the swelling could easily be detected. Fred Hands lowered the meet record for the 220-yard dash of 25.25 seconds by a half of a second. Van Allen of Curtis and K. Wibecan, another colored runner, were second and third, respectively. Handy's time was 25.15 seconds. After performing this feat, he displayed no more emotion than he would have displayed had he broken a phonograph record. He'll break more yet, watch him! SOL BUTLER RETURNS TO TRACK ATHLETICS Sol Butler, former holder of the inter-collegiate 60-year championship, and the running broad jump records, returned to competition at a track athlete at the first outdoor meet of the season held under a supersite of the Longhill Lycambe at McGolrick Field on Sunday. May 21. Butler was entered in a series of special sprint events of 70, 80 and 90 yards, but was heaten in each by Eddie Farrell of Fordham University. He was second in all three events, and stood second in the number of points scored. The former broad jump champion has recently come East to live, and is training to take part in all of the big outdoor meets of the season held in this vicinity. He is now running unattached, but it is expected that he will cast his lot with one of the local clubs soon. Race Boyx Make Good.

Martin and Captain A. A. Branch, the Virginia Union University baseball team has unquestionably won the championship of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the Middle Atlantic States. The team won Howard University, Lincoln University, V. N. & L. L, and V. J. S. & C. each twice, playing a total of nine games with member teams of the association, losing only two games. Union has won more games in the association than any other team and has no opposition for the baseball championship of the season. Concerning the players, Merrit and "Indian" Lee, pitches, have measured up well and give promise of doing even better next season. Heavy bitters are F. D. Johnson, H. Hoffman, "Rai" Adams and B. C. Gregory. Sensational fielding was done by two Union stars, Gregory at first lease, and Adams in shortstop. Captain A. A. Branch covered much territory and slowed that he had a real good arm all season. Union made a splendid showing and proved to be a real "bugbear" to other teams in the association. The team was composed of the following members: "Rai" Adams, ss.; A. A. Branch, cf.; B. C. Gregory, b; F. D. Johnson, rf.; H. Hoffman, 3b.; A. C. Jackson, c; E. W. Green, H. J. J. Wilson, 2b. and B. Merritt and "Indian" Lee, pitches R. N. Brown, C. E. Jackson, W. Hustles, L. E. Jeffries, R. A. Gostam, W. A. Smith, A. J. Prior, G. L. Jones and W. H. Cooper were substitutes. ```markdown ``` Royal Giants Wt. Double Header. The Brooklyn Royal Giants was the winner in both games in their series at City College Stadium on Sunday, May 21. In the first game the Highbridge nine was easily outclassed and defeated by a score of 8-0, and in the second game the Murray Hill nine was shut out by a close score of 3-0. Harris, the new pheasant for the Giants, pitched an excellent game, and by hitting a home run in the seventh, scored two runs for his team. The showing made by the entire team on Sunday seems to indicate that they are to have one of their most score still seasons and will be a strong contender for the local semi-professional championship. Wilkins and Spearman was the batters for the Giants in the first game; Harris and Spearman in the second game. --- Taladega Has Successful Season. Taladega. Ala. The Taladega baseball team returned from an extensive trip to southern Alabama. George and Florida a few days ago. Fourteen games were played, with only one lost by the local team. The game last was to the Montgomery Grey Sox on April 27th, and was one of the best games seen this season. The score was 0:18 to the last innning. The team has deflected Morris Brown, Tuskegee, American, Florida A & M, and several other schools in the South. Oxford Defeats Durham Red Sox. Oxford, N.C. - The Oxford All-Star defeated the Durham Red Sox here on Saturday, May 20th, to a score of 8-2. Batteries for the game were Reavis and Reavis for Oxford, and Matthew and Bonnie for Durham. ADAMS REGAINS AMATEUR MILLIARD CHAMPIONSHIP The playoff for the color of the amateur 18-2 ball line championship of the Ama- ture Ballard Players' Club, which was a tie between Williams and Mays, re- turned Adams as the club champion to the second time, he having won at turs 1920, score 100 to 75. As this is William's first try in the club's annual Round Robin, he did well to draw a tie against the champion. At the finish of the match Mr. Ad- ams was immediately challenged by S. M. Baird of Philadelphia, for a match game at 18-2, 150 points, to be played at the club room. Thursday evening, May 25. This challenge was a surprise to the members, as Mr. Baird has just joined the club, but he comes well re- commended as an amateur of class. He made it his first duty to register his permanent membership with the club on arriving in New York. He is a good shot maker and a lover of the game. Peekskill, last year's club champion, captured the prizes for high run, 19, and best average, 216, but could not get in on the tie for the W. H. Willis Trophy, a much coveted prize, on which he has one leg. WILLIE WALKER KNOCKS By Knecking out Alex "Kid" Gibbons, in the fourteenth round of their scheduled fifteen round bout at the 15th Regiment Armory on Friday, night May 19. Willie Walker, performed a feat which Panama Joe Gans was unable to do a few weeks ago. Gibbons has fought all of the leading colored midweighties of the East, and previous to his bout of Friday night, had never before been knocked out. Walker, however, profited by a mistake of Gibbony manager, when he had his man change his style of fighting in the tenth round. Previous to that time Walker had been winning on points, but had been unable to do any material damage to his opponent. In the tenth round Gibbons was ordered to stand up and dug by his manager, and from that time to the end, he was badly bathed. By the opening on the final round, Walker had his opponent completely tired out and hitting wildly. In doing so Gibbons left his body impropered, which gave Walker the opportunity to get in several powerful blows to the stomach and heart. These blows were followed by an upperment, which sent the defeated man down for the count of nine. His head had not cleared when he came up, and another blow to the face hung over the ropes to be counted out. Walker, who is now under the management of George Moore, has never showed up better, and Should in a short time be at the top of the colored fighters in his class. It is very likely that he will be matched to meet Panama Joe Gans in the near future. Despite his defeat Gibbons also continues to give the impression of being a remarkably goodighter, who has never been properly trained. With careful training under a good manager, he too has possibilities of becoming one of the best middleweights Joe have. Walker weighed 100 pounds and his opponent 152. In the semi-final contest of ten rounds, little Johnny Clark on the 15th, was outpressed by Marty Sullivan of the 47th Regiment. Clark put up as game a night as has been seen at this armory, but his opponent was too heavy for him and was also a more skillful boxer Sullivan weighed 122 pounds to Clark's 114. The preliminary bouts were tough by Frankie Burke and Kid Albert, and Kid Albert against Bobby Dixon, with Albert the winner in both contests. In the latter bout he won by a knockout in the first round. Jace Shipp, Jr. and Eddie Pollack were the reserves. CUBAN STARS VS MURKAY HILLS SUNDAY. On Sunday afternoon at the City College Stadium, 18th street and Amsterdam avenue, the Cuban Stars of Havana, Cuba, who have defeated all of the best clubs in the country for years past will be the opponents of the "Murray HILL" in one game of basketball at 5:30 p.m. While prior to this contest, a game in the Catholic League series will be played preliminary to the Cuban-Murray Hill contest. The Stadium is within doubt the finest field in empro ball and the games last Sunday when the Royal Giants appeared in a double header two of the cleanest played heatsheets for some time. Murray Billy Jordan of the Stadium will show only his best attractions in the business, troops on every Sunday. --- Blue Circle May Pole Dance. Blue Circle May Pole Dange.

College Fraternities — Their Mission The generally accepted view of a college fraternity is that it is a closed corporation of young college men, an organization accruing to its members. As a matter of fact, the college fraternity owes much more to the community and to itself. No organization of this type can hope to fulfill its highest mission unless its program calls for the rendering of service to others. COLEMAN BROS. Inc.

Y., died on Tuesday, May 2, 1922, his residence, 11 13th street, after three days' illness from a stroke of apoplexy. Mr. Kelley was widely known and respected in the community. He was a carpenter and builder and had applied his trade up until about ten years ago when he retired. For years he was one of the Republican leaders of the city and was greatly interested in all race enterprises. He was a veteran of the Civil War, being a member of the 20th U. S. Colored Volunteers. In 1869 he was married to Miss Mr. trida J. Develsen of Newburgh, N. Y., and about three years ago he and Mr. Kelley celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary.

BRIDGE STREET CHURCH OPPOSES FORMER PASTOR our petition, which was sent you by over three hundred members of this church, on May 8, and further petition and pray that you will not appoint an apostate for Bridge Street Church. We remain as loyal and faithful members of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church. Resolved. That these resolutions are hereby adopted, and the following named committee be hereby appointed to present to Rt. Rev. William H. Heard, our bishop, for his godly consideration. (Signed)- TURNER M. SMITH, chairman. Committee: Mrs. Gertrude Brawner, chairman, George Billups, steward; Thomas Merriweather, class leader. These resolutions were voted on by over 500 loyal members of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church on Monday evening, May 22, 1922. Dr. W. Spencer Carpenter, in completing his five year term as pastor of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, makes the following report of all money received during his pastorate: Bv. Trustees ..... 145,484.74 Bv. Stewardships ..... 131,547.47 Total receipts.....$79,036.21 The "dollar money" received for the annual conference during the past two years was as follows: 1921—$1,350; 1922—$1,375.75; $1,381.06 was received in class dues during the past five years. The pastor's salary is paid out of money collected in this manner. In 1917 his salary was $1,400, and is now $2,400. This year $1,072.40 was the amount of the class dues collected, which gave the pastor $2,740 over his salary of $2,400. Not only has Dr. Carpenter kept the church in good condition during his patricate, but he has also substantially increased its bank account. BRIDGE ST. CHURCH QUESTION Edu. of THE NEW YORK CITY: I am not a member of the A. M. E. Church, but, as a grandson of one who gave his life in the ministry of that denomination, and deeply interested in the progress of our people in Brooklyn, I was justified in entering the controversy touching the pastorate of the Bridge Street A. M. E. Church. As far back as December of last year George Towne, writing in the Brooklyn Informed magazine, said: "The A. M. E. people, as a rule, get tired of a pastor after three or four years. Then they common knocking. If they can find no real cause for complaint they invent some. Dr. Carpenter has been blessed, so far; but keep your ears to the ground and you will soon hear tumors—tumors of the devil's own invention." And so now it has come to pass! During his pastorate of the Bridge Street A. M. E. Church Rev. W. Spencer carpenter has been a most relentless supporter of vice, an infatigable worker for the advancement of our race, and a faithful advocate of Christ's King. And a faithful advocate of the infatigable Ease in the affairs of pilgrim chalmers, unworthy of the name of Christian, should be permitted to deprecate Dr. Carpenter's prestige at the conference at New Rochelle. Brooklyn, N. Y. SAMUEL A. GIBBS. Sunday morning, May 21, the church was filled to its capacity with those who came to worship. The semi-closed sky and the gentle breeze which prevailed, enriched the day ideal for church attendance. The music rendered by the choir during the preliminary service was intriguing. The 11 o'clock sermon was preached by Dr. Brown, the pastor. The instrument used by the pastor was "The instrument our talents." Just before the beginning of the sermon, Dr. Brown asked that the entire congregation engage in a few moments of silent prayer that the services might truly be a source of spiritual strength. The text was read from Matthew 25:15. "And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and another one, to every man according to his natural ability." creating this subject the speaker is to show that the theory of equality among men was false. He goes on that there is an inequality among men regards their capacities, and that the inequality was recognized by the spoken of in the text, in his one talent to the one, two to the three, and five to the third. He declares that the mart with the five talents always the most successful. He declares that one talent in were most numerous in the community of humanity. He declared that all the one-talent persons in the community and the community to bestir themselves in those things that would resemble the greatest good to mankind, accomplishments would far surpass the efforts combined of those among the two and five talents. One purpose of the speaker is to inform the servant named so upon those who feel that only the one talent the immanent of doing all in their power to the improvement of their talents is required in the dest.

Stand firm until the storm blows over—and hold your people." This was the essence of the address of Bishop R. F. Jones of New Orleans, speaking to Negro pastors at the first conference of Negro City Leaders of the Methodist Episcopal Church in session at Central Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church, Atlanta, May 10 to 14. The meeting was composed for the most part of prominent Negro pastors of that denomination in the large southern and northern cities of this country. "There never was a day when the Negro race was so dissatisfied as it is today. I have always been a conservative on race matters, but I wonder if you know how rapidly the church is losing hold on the race. The Negro is not looking for philanthropy, but for justice. Let this present wave of dissatisfaction move on and we shall have what Sherman once said of War," said Bishop Jones. The conference of Negro City Leaders was presided over by Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, secretary of the Department of Negro work. Board of Home Missions and Church extension. Dr. Melvin P. Burns, head of the Department of City Work of the denomination at Philadelphia, collaborated with Dr. Hughes.
