Accounts of the procedures appearing in the Worcester Gazette show that about one hundred young business men attended the club meeting. The proprietor of the hotel, who must have been aware of arrangements for the Kluxer's mysterious entrance and exit, disclaimed knowledge at the matter. The Klanman spoke at considerable length urging members of the club to become knight of the invisible empire. This particular representative declared that the order has entered the North to pin down social unrest. He drew an imaginary line on the table and then declared that to a certain limit often groups might go, but once they crossed the deadline set by the Ku Klux Klan all "moral" pressure would be brought to bear to put a stop to it. A New Scientific Discovery. In writing forth qualities necessary for membership he enumerated 100 per cent Americanism and then said members must be American born, as must forebornborn Male loyalty for the land of their birth. As to the color he said: "He must be white man, because the progress of science has proceed the Neuro to be inferior." Then the speaker hit at Catholics by declaring that members "must owe no allegiance to any ruler, temporal or national." Declaring that the order is being at an unparalleled rate, the emissary of the invisible empire said that discipline, self-sacrifice and hard work must be undergone by the membership, and that the order had been given a clean bill of health by the United States Congress. The order plans to from plans in every state in the Union. Although Deputy Chief of Police Thomas McMurray was present, no effort was made to apprehend or discover the identity of the masked man. Representatives from the district attorney's office were invited to be present, but none accepted.

County Republican Anti-Lynch Committee of County of New Approve Declaration by A to Pass Dyer Anti-H --- A petition denouncing lynchings and introducing the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, pending before the United States Senate, was offered by Congressman H. C. Anseorge of the 21st congressional district, New York, to the Republican County Committee of the County of New York at a meeting on June 15 and it was unanimously adopted by the body. A similar resolution was adopted the previous night, June 14 by the Republican Club of the 15th Assembly District, when presented by Congressman Anseorge. The promise to the resolution receives the provision of Amendment KIV to the Federal Constitution that no state shall deny any person of life, liberty or property without free process of law for any equal protection under the law to any person within its jurisdiction. Statutes are quoted showing that 4-42 lynchings have occurred in the past thirty years, of which 2713 were Negroes. Decrees that lynchings are the work of slave groups, and that in equity States have been consistent failure to provide adequate protection to Negroes involved in crime; that lynchings have been increased, if not actually revoked, the lynchings going unpunished; and States by failing to grant NOTICE TO CORRELATE Independence Day, Day of respondents and admittance must be in The Annex of the fb enclosure provided with it. minister, Erangelist V. E. Starnes of Waco, conducting revival services in one of the local churches, received a visit from six white robed and masked Kluxers, during the progress of an evening service, and was presented an envelope containing $110. Starnes declared an his opinion that the "Ku Klux Klan is the greatest organization on earth after the Church of Jesus Christ." As an evidence of Starnes's preaching, the following paragraph is taken from a sermon which he delivered in only before he was visited by the Klan depotation. "The Ku Klux Klan stands for the supremacy of the white race, now and forever. God made the Negro hewer of wood and a drawer of water and he must stay in his God-given place. The worst crime the white race could commit against, the Negro would be to give him equal rights with the white race. I find more white men in Houston are agreed as to the supremacy of the white race, but some have the idea, judging from the many brown skins I see upon the streets that we ought to breed the black out of them. Gentlemen, it cannot be done that way. The more of them you breed the more hewers of wood and drawers of water you produce." thoroughly in seclusion in its declaration that members are lawabiding. The report came a few days away from Anderson, S. C. that Robert W. Sullivan, secretary of the South Carolina Cotton Manufacturers' Association, had been seized in company with a young lady, Miss Ruby Floyd of that city, by a group of white clad and masked Khnz Klan and taken in automobiles three miles into the country. Sullivan was stripped to his waist and beaten severely and warned not to be seen with the young lady again. When taken by the Kluxers, the couple were in front of the young lady's home and her mother saw the men as they drove in two cars and forced the man and woman to enter the machines. It is reported that the beating followed when both Sullivan and Miss Floyd refused to agree not to be seen together again. Revelations that the Khnz Klan is attempting to organize the State of Massachusetts on the strength of "Masonic sympathy and support" were made yesterday in a circular letter to all (Continued on Fifth Page). Dicans Adopt thing Resolution New York Unanimously by Ansorge Urging Senate anti-Lynching Bill denied to them the equal protection of its Laws, Congressman Ansorge read the resolutions as follows. "RESOLVED, That the Republican County Committee of New York, City and State of New York, hereby con- dition as a blot upon the fair name of America the practice of Lynching in certain of the States of thee Union; and be it further. "RESOLVED, That said County Committee hereby expresses its approval of the Federal Anti-Lynching Bill, upon as Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, which has passed the House and is now smoking action by the Senate; and be RESOLVED. That these resolutions be suppressed to the Hon. Calvin Coolidge, President of the Senate of the United States, so as a memorial to that body to present cancer in the action of the Senate, on said bill; and that a motion of these resolutions be also formulated to Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, senator of the Senate; to Senator William K. Breck, chairman of the administration on the Anti-Loading Bill of the Senate Judiciary Committee; and to Senator James W. Wadegraft, Jr. and Senator William M. Coulter, member of the Senate representing the State of New York."

R. Zion Church, Brooklyn, N. Y. Reception to Dr. Brown and Wife The closing of the second year of Dr. W. C. Brown's pastorate at Fleet Street Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church was marked by one of the largest receptions and donation parties ever tendered a Brooklyn pastor. Brooklynites, without regard to denomination lines, were present in an audience that numbered more than a thousand persons, to do honor to a pastor whose two years' service has been productive of such great results. John H. Neal, secretary to the general committee, presented the Rev. Dr. F. M. Jacobs as master of ceremonies "Dr. M. Jacobs who formerly pastored his church for twelve years, was unintended in his praise of the present pastor. He spoke of Dr. Brown as a pastor, preacher, citizen and gentleman. The choir sang with telling effect, "I have set watch men upon the walls." Among the invited guests to speak were Mrs. W. R. Lawton, president of the Empire State Federation of Women's Club; the Rev. Dr. Richard Manuel Bolden of the First Emmanuel Church, Manhattan; Rev. Mr. Haggott of the A. M. E. Zion Church, Jersey City; Rev. K. L. Warren, Brooklyn; Rev. T. W. Cooper of Newman Memorial Church, Brooklyn; Rev. J. Matthews, Brooklyn; Rev. George Fraser Miller of St. Augustine Church, Brooklyn; Rev. N. Peterman Boyd of St. Philip's Episcopal Church, Brooklyn. in the program were Mrs. Dennis Morse. "Trouble in the Amen Corner." Solo, Mrs. Jamie Hall. "Eyes that are weary." poem Miss Eva Richardson. "A word to the Ethiopian race"; solo, Mrs. Nellie McArthur, "Father, O hear us." Fleet Street Church has grown from year to year, and the year just closed was one of its most notable. More than $30,000 were raised, 347 members added to the church, and the building remodelled to afford seating capacity to 600 more, with rest room, study, up-to-date kitchen and other conveniences desirable in a modern church. Mrs. Brown's work side by side with her husband has been an inspiration to his unparalleled success. The organization is a unit and his return for another year is received with pleasure. Donations, were made from the auxiliaries and the public. Dr. and Mrs. Brown responded to the presentation. Refreshments were served to all. Mrs. Laura Brown was chairman of the general committee. The program committee was Robert Richardson, F. A. Ray and John H. Neal. The Age is in receipt of information from an authoritative source that the promotion of Alexander King, recently made assistant superintendent of the College Station branch postoffice at 140th street, near 8th avenue, to the position of superintendent of that branch office would be formally announced within the next few days. Mr. King, who lives at 235 West 133rd street, formerly served for ten years as assistant superintendent of the Wall Street station, being the first colored man to hold such an important position. Under a Democratic postmaster he was demoted in 1917, and given the rating of clerk with designation as bookkeeper, being put in full charge of the finances of the Wall Street station. He was assigned to his present post on April 14, 1922, largely through the activity manifested by Senator William M. Calder, County Chairman Mokenig, Congressman Ansorge, District Leader Costuma of the 19th and District Leader Vathorn of the 19th. The College station serves practically all of colored Harlem, ninety per cent. of its business coming from colored clients. Mr. King has made many valuable suggestions since coming to his Harlem duties, and it is expected that his elevation to the superintendency of this station will mean a fuller recognition of the colored clerks and carriers on duty there.

He has been connected with Voorhees School since its founding, serving as trustee and secretary of the board of trustees. It is probable that he will continue with the school as field agent. He has been a minister for more than forty years, and for eighteen years was director of Sunday-school and young people's work for the American Baptist Publication Society. His home is at Florence, S. C., where he owns considerable property. Professor Blanton is a half-brother to Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute. He travelled as financial agent for Perm School with marked success. He will take up his work at Vinehees Institute, sometime during the latter part of September.

Dr. Moton, while in the city, was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Malone at Poro College. On Tuesday morning he visited Summer High School and the plant of the Commonwealth Street Company, and in the afternoon in company with Mr. Malone, David D. Jones, W. C. Gordon, Mr. Robinson Editor Mitchell and other friends, saw the St. Louis Browns win from the Yankees in the last game of their series. Tuesday evening, Dr. Moton was the guest at dinner in the Pine Street Y. M. C. A., at which a number of the leading citizens of St. Louis were present. Following the dinner Dr. Moton boarded a train for Hollister, in the extreme southern part of the state where he had been invited to spend two days and to deliver some addresses on inter-racial cooperation, to students and professors from white colleges in the Southwestern region who are attending the student conference at the Y. M. C. A. camp there. The people of St. Louis were much pleased with Dr. Moton, and he made many friends for Toulouse. We are hoping that he may make another visit in the near future when he will have time to see more of what our people are doing along business and educational lines. SHOW & Mr. Austined by Hub Milton Harvard University Has Jim Crow Policy Pres. Lowell Is Personally Responsible For Segregation Ruling Committee of Graduates, Headed by Gannett and Story, Demands Maintenance of Traditional Policy of No Discrimination Agitation concerning racial discrimination at Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass., which has had special reference to exposed bars against entry of Jewish students, has taken on another phase from the publication of a petition, drafted by a committee of seven Harvard graduates, which flatly asserts that Harvard University is conducting "a jim crow policy" and is catering students from the South. It is brought out in this petition that colored students have been excluded from residence in the freshman dormitories, so that students from the South should not be compelled to room or eat with colored men. It is asserted that this matter has been simmering for some time. Two Negro students, Cecil Blue and William J. Knox, Jr, who entered Harvard last summer, were excluded from the freshman dormitories, and it is reported that President A. Lawrence Lowell of Harvard was responsible for the ruling. It is said that the ruling was adopted by the corporation or even brought before it for consideration. The committee, drafting the petition which was sent to Harvard graduate all over the United States, defended the Rev. Dr. William Channing, Gannett of Rochester, N.Y., University clergyman and author. A member of the class of 1800, Dr. Gannett materialized at Harvard in the very heat of the Abolitionist movement. Another member of the committee is Moorfield Story, 66, of Boston, who was private secretary to Charles War and who has been a president of the Moorfield Society Bar Association and is former overseer of Harvard. He is president of the National Association for the A When Knox and Blue attempted to argue the question with President Lowell they were told by him—and this statement he repeated in a letter to interested graduates—that: "If Harvard were faced by the alternative of quitting admitting Negroes to the Freedmen's colony, while admitting all white students, it might be compelled to other colleges, to adopt the other alternative." YALE LAW STUDENT WINS HIGH HONORS (Special to The New York Age). New Haven, Conn.,—J. Alton Atkins, Negro student in Yale Law School graduated with high honors at the Yale commencement held Wednesday, June 21. Young Atkins received the degree of LL. B. cum laude, and received the highest standing in his studies that any colored man has ever received who has matriculated at Yale Law School. In addition to being an honor man throughout his law school course, Atkins has for two years been a member of the editorial staff of the Yale Law Journal, and was the first colored man to be appointed to the Law Journal board. Atkins graduated from Fisk in 1919, leading his class at that Institution. He is the son of President S. G. Atkins of the Slater State Normal School at Winston-Salem, N. C.

Dancing will follow immediately after the show to Deacon Johnson's symph. The committee, drafting the guidelines which was sent to Harvard graduate all over the United States, defended the Rev. Dr. William Chambers, Corpsett of Rochester, N. Y., Univinial clergyman and author. A member of the class of 1850, Dr. Chambers materialized at Harvard in the very hour of the Abdolitionist movement. Another member of the committee is Moorfield Story, '66 of Boston, who was private secretary to Charles Spurgeon just after the Civil War and who has been a president of the Massachusetts Bar Association and is former overseeer of Harvard. He is president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Other members of the committee are Charles C. Barkingham, 79, of New York, internationally known as an authority on maritime law and former president of the Board of Education; Alfred Jeretski, '81; John Bargatts, '81; Edward Eyre Hunt, '18; who was in charge of American law enforcement during the war with the occupation of the President's Council and was employed, and Robert C. Barkingham, '12, the writer. The Committee's Letter Mr. Benchley is secretary of the committee, and commenting on the petition, said it was their intention to work among Harvard graduates, particularly among the older men in whom the Civil War tradition still lives, and to have the ruling changed. The committee's letter, which was sent to President Lowell, as well as to the fellows of Harvard, read as follows: "We have learned with surprise that the long tradition of the college as regards Negroes has been broken and a color line drawn in the freshmen dormitories. The exclusion policy has never been publicly announced, so far as we know, and has only likely become known. "It is now stated that this policy was adopted when the dormitories were opened a few years ago; that during the war it lapsed and that through inference two Negroes, Jourdain, T. and Ghee, 22, roomed in the freshmen hall. They suffered no difficulties as a result of their presence there. Call Reason Insufficient "Last summer Cecil Blue and William J. Knox, Jr. were excluded from the freshmen dormitories because they were Negroes. A room in Standish Hall was assigned to Knox in May, and after attending examinations in June he received a telegram asking him to return his resignation card, and a week later a letter saying that the halls were full. When he went to Cambridge then Chase told him that it was the day of the college not to admit Negroes to the freshmen dormitories. "So far as we can learn, the policy of exclusion is based on the fact that residence in freshmen halls is now compulsory and the opinion that as many from the South and Southwest come to Harvard in considerable numbers they should not be compelled to room off with colored men. "We respectfully submit that they are not sufficient reasons for abiding the long and honorable tradition of Harvard College. Oppose. Surrender of Ideals. In the past, Southerners coming to Harvard have accepted Northern customs. They have eaten in Memorial Hall where Negroes also ate, although at other tables, and have roomed in dormitories where Negroes also roamed, although in separate rooms, avoiding intimacy distasteful to them but forming to the college customs, just as they had to conform to them in the college lecture rooms and the Harvard Union, as well as on trains, just cars and in restaurants. "We believe that the university uses the Southern man the best possible opportunity for education, but we do not owe him the surrender of our Northern ideas of democracy and our Hard ideas of justice. We do not believe that the Southerners who come to Cambridge for their education expect Harvard to give up their traditions. Better Accept Loan. "We are informed that just enough a Negro number of the freshmen cross-country team was obtained after discussion to the English team, although MAGE TWO The editorial board of the Harvard Law Review, with Southerners. However, we are mistaken in this conclusion and if the continuance of the traditional policy means a loss to the board of Southerners, many or few, it is race-consciousness, we believe that ideals are part of a Harvard education and that the College should accept that loss rather than surrender its standards. The founders explicitly contemplated the inclusion of colored, i.e., Indian students, in its chases and buildings. The Charter of 1650, still in force, refers to that intention. The present policy of exclusion means that the color is taking sides with those who would increase rather than lessen the burdens of the colored race. It is a Jim Crow policy. The alma mater of Channing, of John, Quincy Adams, of Sumpur, and of Robert Gould Shaw of the 5th Massachusetts Infantry should not abandon the tradition of Harvard liberalism, tolerance and justice. "For these reasons we feel it our right and duty as Harvard graduates to request the President and Fellows to abandon the policy of exclusion and to return to the traditional Harvard policy of no discrimination on account of color or race." The Negro student, Jordain, mentioned in the memorial, is not Gourdin, the famous Negro athlete member of the Harvard team team who won the intercollegiate broad jump. He is E. B. Jourdain, now a student in the Graduate School of Business Administration. He roomed last year in Weld Hall, in which William J. Knox, Jr., also roomed, Cecil A. Blue, a freshman also roomed at 46 Dana street, Cambridge, and E. P. Ghee, who graduated this year, roomed in Clavelry Hall. Disagree On Lowell Policy. Statements from members of the Board o Overseers of Harvard indicate that not all its thirty members agree with the policy ascribed to President Lowell of excluding Negro students at Harvard from residence in the freshman dormitories. The committee of seven Harvard graduates which is seeking to obtain signatures of Harvard alumni to a petition, in the hope that the college authorities will reverse the policy, look to the Board of Overseers, it is understood, for the backing that will bring about what they call a return to the traditional hospitality of Harvard toward all applicants for education, irrespective of race or color. One of their strongest supporters will be, apparently, Supreme Court Justice Francis J. Swayze, 79, of Newark, N. J., a former president of the Harvard Alumni Association. Judge Swayze expressed himself as follows: "I strongly favor the traditional Harvard policy of equal treatment of all and an open field of no favors." Edgar Conway Felton, seventy-nine, of Philadelphia, president of the Pennsylvania Steel Company and former president of the Harvard Club said: "I do not believe the governing boards of Harvard have any thought of abonding the time-honored policy of equal educational opportunities to all students. Some limitation of numbers must be made. Since existing facilities are inadequate for the proper, care and instruction of the larger student body. This will in no way affect the principle of equal treatment. I know nothing in regard to the exclusion of Negroes from freshman dormitories, but I think this a question of social relations and internal management which can best be left to the college authorities in charge of such matters." What President Lowell Said. President Lowell, Dean Greennough, and other authorities at the university withheld comment. One alumnus familiar with President Lowell's view quoted the following extract from a letter recently written by President Lowell. "No agitation will force us from doing our duty toward the rest of our students. If it is better for them, as we believe it is, to have compulsory residence in freshman halls, we shall not be deterred from doing what is best for this overwhelming majority of our students because there are perhaps 1 percent of colored men to whom the policy cannot be applied. "In fact, their inclusion would make it impossible to carry out the compulsion for the rest. Men from the South and Southwest come to us in considerable numbers, and cannot be compelled to room or eat with colored people. We owe to the colored man the best possible opportunities for education, but we do not owe to him inclusion in a compulsory social system with other people when it is not mutually agreeable." COLLEGE DECLINED TO MEET COLLEGE DECLINED TO MEET HARVARD NEGRO ATHLETES Cambridge, Mass.—William L. Knox, Jr. of New Bedford, one of the Negro students who, it is alleged, were barred from the freshman dormitories at Harvard, explained today: "I received notice last summer that I was assigned to Standish Hall, a freshman dormitory, where Edwin Jourdain, my friend, roomed in his first year at Harvard. So after taking my examinations I went to claim my room. I was given instead a notice to return my registration card for the hall to the office authorities on the ground that the hall was full. "Since then my friends and I have found out that activities of Southern students and alumni had considerable do with the harring of myself and colored men." Knox was domiciled later in Weld Hall, one of the yard dormitories, while Cecil A. Blue of Washington, who also failed to gain admission to the freshman dormitories, took a room in a residence. Edwin B. Jourdain, a townman of Noyers, was more successful in 1917. He said: "After I got into the dormitory during the war laxity I was treated deterrent. Now and then petty distinctions would come up, but I passed them over, as I had to. "Since then, however, the bars have been going up and I am told that soon after the war three colored students were barred from the freshman halls on the claim that the quarters were full and they discovered later that white men had been admitted afterwards." The presence of Jourdan and Edward Gordon, the world's broad jumping champion, on the Harvard track and last year caused both Amnapolis and the University of Virginia to re-appoint instructors for tests for the South. Gordon declared it could not load one or both of them, and the team was suspended by the Supreme Court. Cheyenne, Pa.—The commencement exercises of the Cheyenne Training School for Teachers were held at Cheyenne, Pa. on Wednesday, June 14, 1922. This is the second commencement under the reorganization of the institution as the fourteenth State normal school. One of the pleasantest features of the Cheyenne program is the fine singing of Negro melodies by the students. This year the singing was excellent. Most of the melodies sang were arrangements by Nathaniel Dett, Harry Burleigh and Samuel Colidge-Taylor. Miss Julia Gilbert of Philadelphia sang "I am so Glad That Trouble Don't Last Alway" and "Somebody is Knocking at Your Door." As usual the commencement was a reunion of the Cheyne family, and the meeting vibrated with the emotion of love and of service as graduates took of their efforts teachers in the hard places in the Southland, and welcomed the graduates into the field of the servants of the world. Amreta Nichols, Stella Hancock, George Evans, and Edward Jackson of the graduating class unfolded their visions of service. Stanley R. Yarnall, president of the Richard Humphreys Foundation, and principal of the Friends Preparative School in Germantown, Pa., gave the commencement address. He talked on life's ideals. On behalf of the alumni, the students and the faculty, Rev. C. S. Freeman, of the class of 96 and pastor of the First African Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, made the speech presenting the bronze tablet commemorating the services of the Society of Friends to the cause of education of the American Negro. He said that The Friends are responsible for the vision of thousands of young men and women who have been touched by those who have gone out from the school. The Friends have been and are men who have convictions born of suffering. Their inner light had compelled sympathy with the slaves and they had become pioneers in working for their education and freedom. The spirit of the Bible has been and is today the foundation-stone of the institution giving it is ideal. James Henry Bartlett, in receiving the tablet for The Society of Friends, said that behind the tablet were 150 years of devotion to a great cause. He spoke of the work of Anthony Benezet who first taught Negro-children in the city of Brotherly Love, and thereby taught his fellow citizens that these children were capable of receiving instruction of the highest type. He said that Renezet's message to the world was this "If you want to teach you must overcome that in you who hakes you work for people instead of of with people. We will never get together on the right plane until we learn how to work with people." Senator Albert Dutton MacDade of Chester, Pa., expressed his interest in the school and his intention of promoting it in the legislature. Henry Klonover, assistant director, Teacher Bureau, Department of Public Instruction, Harrison, Pa., presented the diplomas and prizes. Stella Hancock received a prize for highest general scholarship in the normal department. Alger Crawford received a prize for highest general scholarship in the high school.

Hampton, Va.-Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, in his recent report to the board of trustees, of which Chief Justic Tale is the pre- ident, stated that the number of students in the boarding department, enrolled to February 1, was 873 (553 boys and 320 girls). The Veterans' Bureau has sent to Hampton during the year 34 disabled soldiers for "rehabilitation" training. On January 20, the Hampton board of trustees voted to authorise a four-year collegiate normal course to prepare Negro men and women to qualify as high-school principals and supervisors. The Virginia Department of Education has given its approval, and for the proper completion of this work the degree of bachelor of arts in education will be given. To meet the demand for trained agricultural leaders for Negro farmers, teachers of agriculture, and farmers, Hampton Institute now offers a standard four-year collegiate course (of thirty-six months), which leads to the degree of bachelor of science in agricultural education. A course in institutional management for school matrons will be given during the coming autumn or winter. Instructions in tailoring has been introduced into the advanced home-economica course. Dr. Gregg in his report recommended the "building of a cottage for practice in house-keeping. The money for this cottage has already been given by Mrs. Henry A. Strong of Rochester, N. Y. The trades taught at Hampton Institute include automobile mechanics; blacksmithing; bricklaying and plastering; cabinetry; carpentry; mechanic work; painting; printing; steam fitting and plumbing; tailoring; wheelwrighting and blacksmithing. A new advanced builders' course will be offered to graduates of the carpentry and bricklaying courses. The 1921 summer scoll for colored teachers, held at Hampton, enrolled 637 men and women from seventeen states. Virginia furnished 187 and North Carolina, 166. The Whittier Training School, which is the practice school for Hampton Institute, has enrolled 492 pupils. The ministers' conference 'enrollment was 256 from sixteen states and 19 denominations; 133 came, from rural parishes. Mrs. John S. Kennedy has given Hampton a new dormitory, for girls, costing about $100,000, in memory of her husband. George Foster Peabody has, given from the Palmer Find an attractive trustees' house. The Hampton graduates and former students have given "Armstrong Field"—a modern athletic field, which, when completed, will cost $30,000.

OUR NEW HOME 25,000 MORE PORO AGENTS WANTED Equipped with the Very Latest Apparatus for Teaching the Poro System of Scalp and Hair Culture and all Branches of Beauty Culture Terms Moderate Diplomas Given Write Today for Further Information "PORO" COURSE --- Col. Arthur Little, formerly of the Old 15th New York, and now commander of the 360th Infantry, New York Guard, the organization which takes the place formerly occupied by the famous 15th, has sent a letter to various United States Senators urging in strong and unqualified measure the immediate passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Col. Little declares that five years of comradeship "in the broadcast school of fraternalism that I can imagine—war service," sharing "hunger, cold, fifth, bodily danger, unfair treatment, bereavement, sickness, fatigue, good health, triumphs, plenty, joy, honor, acclaim" with colored soldiers has proven that "the colored man in his individual character sized up just about the same as the white man." The plea is made that the public stop thinking about the Negro as a problem, but think of and treat them as fellow citizens. The letter sent by Col. Little reads in full as follows: 369TH INFANTRY, N. Y. GUARD 58 WEST 140TH STREET NEW YORK June 9. 1922. My dear Senator: I have been requested by a number of leaders of thought of this community, sometimes referred to as the colored district of New York City but, at all events, the district from which this regiment of colored volunteer infantry is recruited, to send you a message of advocacy, upon behalf of the men of my command of the so-called Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Although I have sought no formal expression of opinion from the members of our regiment or from the members of the families of the men of our regiment. I have no hesitancy in expressing the opinion that we are unanimously in favor of any Federal Act which could offer even a slight contribution to a solution of the horrible problem of how to move certain states of our country to take efficient action against the ignorance of laws which upon their face exist for the protection of our citizens according to modern ideas of civilization. Personally, I cannot speak too strongly in the hope that a true development may be accomplished in this field.

As a result of a natural evolution of my mind I reached the conclusion more than three years ago that it is a mistake of judgment upon the part of many, public spirited and well meaning citizens, ready and willing to work unselfishly for the betterment of interracial feeling, to talk about and to think about the colored race of our country as a problem. I have had the opportunity of com- tradeship with colored men and, in a sense, with colored women, in the broadest school of fraternalism that I can imagine—war service. I have shared with colored soldiers, hunger, cold, filth, bodily danger, unfair treatment, bereavement, sickness, fatigue, good health, triumph, plenty, joy, honor, acclaim and all of the other elements of character test that come out at a time in a soldier's life who serves his country in war services. I found that the colored man in his individual character sized up just about the same as the white man. Individual weaknesses, of course, developed, but individual traits of the beauty of human nature-developed too. There is nothing attractive about a scoundrel or a degenerate whatever his race may be; but I don't know of any race with whom I can take a greater degree of pride of accomplishment and co-operation than with the right-hearted soldiers of the colored race with whom I have been associated for five years. My plea, whenever I have a chance to make my plea to the public at large, is to stop thinking about the colored race as a problem and to start in honestly thinking about them and treating them as fellow citizens. If this so-called Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill by its enforcement of laws against Lynching can accomplish even one step towards the elimination of the problem idea as appled to the colored race, it will have served a useful part in the development of our civilization. I am free to say that I am not informed as an expert in regard to all of the conditions of the Bill and I am by no means clear in my mind as to how the law, if adopted, can be enforced without violation of state's rights. Such questions, however, are questions for lawyers. My interest in and approval of what I understand to be the principle of the proposed law is based upon a common sense view of humanitarianism. We need not deceive ourselves in looking the lynching question in the face. Lynching would cease to be an issue if crimes against women should cease to be a practice, but from my reading of the newspapers, the lynching penalty is rarely inflicted upon white offenders against women. That fact, if true, establishes a fairly good proof that the lynching is not inspired by the outraged sense of decency of men on account of the violation of women but on account of a racial prejudice. I would venture the opinion, and I could submit a number of points of evidence to justify my opinion, that colored men as a race are just as violently opposed to assault upon women as are which men as a race. First and last throughout the history of this regiment in the War, more than 5,000 colored men passed through our rolls. To the best of my knowledge and belief, not a single case of rape occurred. I know of one instance, however, in which there was an alarm and a tumor of a French girl having been violated by a colored man of our regiment and the feeling of indignation against this soldier by the man of his own race was so high and so violent in expression that I fear a lynching of a colored man by colored men might have occurred if the man had not been cleared by confession of false witness upon the part of the girl originally making the charge. I should be in favor of making assaults upon women a capital offense and I should like to see the laws applied in such cases so as to get the benefit of the effect of prompt retributive justice against all criminals of this kind irrespective of race, or social, or other worldly considerations. This present practice of applying the lynching punishment only against men of one race is mere hypocrisy and its effect is to array the people of the colored race against the people of the white race on account of the injustice of the application of the practice and to make people of both races forget the real crime in which both races should unite in opposition—the crime against the cavity of womenhood.

KU KLUX CANNOT HOLD OFFICE It remained for a Texas judge to lay down the law that a county official who had taken the oath of allegiance to the Ku Klux Klan, could not continue to hold his office. This simple but perfectly consistent decision was rendered by Judge Robert G. Street of Galveston in the sixteenth district court at Beaumont, when Tom G. Garner, sheriff of Jefferson County, was removed from office on the ground that his official oath as sheriff was contravened and contradicted by the oath he had taken to the Klan. This constituted official misconduct and was held by the court to be sufficient cause to remove him from office. This decision will be appealed of course, as it is regarded as a body blow to the organization that has become so active in Texas. If it should be affirmed by the highest court, it will mean that no officer of the state of Texas can hold office and at the same time subscribe to the oath required to become a member of the Ku Klux Klan. In other words, every officeholder in the State will be subject to removal upon proof of having taken the oath to the Klan. As the verdict was rendered by instruction of the judge, the jury was not polled, but it was stated that eleven of them signed a statement that if they had both allowed to pals upon the case, they would have decided in favor of restoring the sheriff in office. The acuteness of the judge in arriving at his decision was shown by his rejoinder to a statement by counsel for the sheriff that the oath taken by the Klan member was not in contravention to the oath of a peace officer of the State, in passing upon this plea. Judge Street said that "the portion of the oath of the Ku Klex Klan that makes the objection of the constitution and the absence of church and state and other reasons of that kind, is really camouflaged and is introduced for the purpose of restoring the unwary and the ignorant." Chairman must grew out of the ac- cult of the Klan in Romance about warfare which gave rise to several theological debates the participants would continue for years. an web violence and changes were made that the sheriff was a member of the Klan. While this case does not seem to involve the activities of the Klan, as directed against the Negro, it should have a far reaching effect in making the membership of state officials in that organization a serious matter for them. It might even result in the decision that the oath of allegiance to the Klan is in contravention of the oath of allegiance to the United States. If this legal dictum was pushed to its logical end, it might result in vacating a number of scents in both Houses of Congress. COL. LITTLES PLEA. That was an unusually strong letter addressed by Colonel Arthur Little of the 300th Infantry to Senator Wadsworth, in advocacy of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. An outstanding and most refreshing phase of this communication is the conclusion reached by the writer of it, that it is a mistake of judgment upon the part of many public spirited and well meaning citizens, ready to work unselfishly for the betterment of inter-racial feeling, to think about the colored race of our country as a problem. His reason for arriving at this conclusion is given in the following, soldierly and straight-forward language: I have had the opportunity of com- radeship with colored men and, in a sense, with colored women, in the broadest, school of fraternization that I can imagine—our service. I have shared with colored soldiers, hunger, cold, filth, bodily danger, unfair treatment, bereavement, sliness, fatigue, good health, triumphs, plenty, joy, honor, acclaim, and all, of the other elements of character test that come to one at a time in a soldier's life who serves his country in war service. I found that the colored man in his individual character sized up just about the same as the white man. Individual weaknesses, of course, de- veloped, but individual traits of the beauty of human nature developed too. There is nothing attractive about a scoundrel or a degenerate what- ever his life race may be; but I don't know of any race with whom I can take a greater degree of pride of de- g accomplishment and cooperation than with the right-hearted soldiers of the colored race with whom I have been associated for five years. On the ground laid by this intimate knowledge and association, Colonel Little based his plan to the public at large, to stop thinking about the race as a problem and to start in honestly thinking about them and creating them as fellow citizens. This is the creak of the whole situation. The recognition of the men and women of the race as human beings and American citizens, instead of an abstruse and unwelcome problem, to be solved by statistics and long winded disquisitions on non-essentials and imaginary bogies. But to bring this about requires a better knowledge on the part of both races of the better qualities of each. Until such a knowledge is acquired the work of bringing about a better understanding will be greatly hammered and delayed. The plea advanced by such a tried soldier, and practical business man as Colonel Arthur Little should help to bring about this better understanding. --- "A Potato Sermon" was the peculiar heading given by the Norfolk Vigil to an announcement that one thousand persons were wanted to "hear Dr. C. C. Somerville repeat that celebrated sermon from the subject 'The Strange Face,' using an Irish potato to illustrate the discourse." Virginia preachers seem to have a foodness for freak sermons, but none has achieved the fame won by the late Rev. John Jasper of Richmond in his discourse expounding the belief that "The Sun. Do Move." In his rejection of the teachings of modern science the Richmond preacher would find himself reinforced today by the weight of such authorities as the Kentucky legislature and the Hon. William Jennings Bryan. The Baltimore Herald in its Philadelphia news columns corrected a false report in the following emphatic manner: By some wild false rumor this paper published an article last week stating that Uncle Jack, whose correct name is Rev. Jack Bamister, was dead. The report of his death was greatly exaggerated. He is not dead but living. The styling of the false report of a death as "greatly exaggerated" is a classic of American humor, and antony by its effectiveness for the lack of originality. According to the Birmingham Reporter the City Commission unanimously defended an ordinance to bar masked parades or masked people on the streets of Birmingham, which was aimed at the Ku Klux Klan. The report further stated: A Rev. A. J. Mauhburn of Atlanta, Ga., declared himself to be a Ku Klux and a minister in the Baptist Church, defended the Ku Klux organization, and opposed the ordinance. He gave bits of history of the organization, told of its formation years ago, its purpose then and its purpose now. He declared it was not a whipping organization, but one for law and order. "This is the best friend the Southern Negro has, but we are against the northern agitator and the Society for the Advancement of Colored people which preaches social, as well as political equality," he said. By raising the lily of "social equality" the prospectors of the Elm were able to defile the碴塘 to earn its DEMOCRACY AT HARVARD diversities of the world have always been using and the refuge of liberalism.

The question of color and race is raised of what Harvard has to offer. A lot of Jews, and reducing their number as public one. A few days ago the same students became public. This students has been simmering for some time and strong influences have been at work with the practice of discrimination which was fast becoming a fixed policy made by certain members of the Alum and Storey of Boston to have a petit body of the university asking that the condition as regards the Negro and that men from the Freshman dormitories be disheartening aspect of this whole President Lowell. President Lowell frankly that Harvard is catering to that he is not going to let a little triple stand between Harvard University the South. Dr. Lowell is quoted as defining the following statements: Station will force us from doing our duty tew. If it is better for them, as we believe it is, in freshman halls, we shall not be deterred for this overwhelming majority of our students one per cent of colored men to whom their inclusion would make it impossible to for the rest. Men from the South and Southrable numbers, and cannot be compelled to robe. We owe to the colored man the best p education but we do not owe to him inclusion system with other people when it is not mutual. President Lowell had been reared in Mississippi, he could hardly have put up a strong. Evidently Southern students at Harvard this situation for a great many years President Lowell's official endorsement for reasons it is likely that they will stand to keep colored men out of Harvard latter had transpired at Yale University, even some degree of prejudice against large university in the country it was out for it to have transpired at Harvard expression. The universitatis of the world have always been considered the well-spring and the refuge of liberalism. This has been so regarded in all countries, and in all times from the middle ages down. Among the great universities in the United States none has held a higher place in this respect than Harvard. Harvard University has always been looked upon as the strong-hold of liberalism. This is especially true as it touches the Negro. Not only were a great many men who championed the Negro's cause cradeled at Harvard but in turn became the cradle of numbers of aspiring colored youth. Today the question of color and race is raised as a bar to the enjoyment of what Harvard has to offer. A few weeks ago the question of Jews, and reducing their number at the university, became a public one. A few days ago the same question as applied to colored students became public. This question as to colored students has been simmering for some time at Harvard. A number of strong influences have been at work in an attempt to do away with the practice of discrimination against colored students which was fast becoming a fixed policy. An effort is now being made by certain members of the Alumni headed by Mr. Moorfield Storey of Boston to have a petition presented to the governing body of the university asking that Harvard return to its old tradition as regards the Negro and that the exclusion of colored men from the Freshman dormitories be discontinued. The most disheartening aspect of this whole situation is the attitude of President Lowell. President Lowell is reported as stating quite frankly that Harvard is catering to students from the South and that he is not going to let a little matter of democratic principle stand between Harvard University and white students of the South. Dr. Lowell is quoted as having written a letter containing the following statements: "No agitation will force us from doing our duty toward the rest of our students. If it is better for them, as we believe it is, to have compulsory residence in freshman halls, we shall not be deterred from doing what is best for this overwhelming majority of our students because there are perhaps one per cent of colored men to whom the policy cannot be applied. "In fact, their inclusion would make it impossible to carry out the compulsion for the rest. Men from the South and Southwest come to us in considerable numbers, and cannot be compelled to room or eat with colored people. We owe to the colored man the best possible opportunities for education but we do not owe to him inclusion in a compulsory social system with other people when it is not mutually agreeable." If President Lowell had been reared in Mississippi instead of Massachusetts he could hardly have put up a stronger defense for discrimination. Evidently Southern students at Harvard have been working up this situation for a great many years but now that they have President Lowell's official endorsement of their attitude and their reasons it is likely that they will stop at no ends in their efforts to keep colored men out of Harvard University entirely. If this matter had transpired at Yale University where there has always been some degree of prejudice against the Negro or at any other large university in the country it would have been bad enough; but for it to have transpired at Harvard is discouraging beyond expression. THE KAPLAN CASE Senator Sutherland of West Virginia, senate with a newspaper article in his letter to the year book issued by the grading, attaining a mock biography of Leonard the graduating class, and a Jew.

Other hand certain Senators have risen and the most insulting epithets upon one being called to order by the pre- the Jews command is due to power a equivalent of that saine sort of power the same respect. Last week Senator Sutherland of West Virginia arose on the floor of the Senate with a newspaper article in his hand. The article referred to the year book issued by the graduating class at Annapolis containing a mock biography of Leonard Kaplan, a member of the graduating class, and a Jew. Senator Sutherland said: "I cannot too strongly characterize the circumstances set forth in the article. It relates to a boy from my State by the name of Leonard Kaplan, who is of Jewish extraction. Throughout his four years at Annapolis young Kaplan has maintained a very high standing. "In fact, I understand he was very near the head of his class which has just been graduated; but because of his nationality he has been subjected to a refinement of cruelty such as has been set forth in this article." The Kaplan matter has been taken up not only by members of the Senate but the Navy Department has also taken a hand. Colonel Roosevelt, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy, issued a severe reprimand to the cadet who is the editor of the year book. We mention this activity on the part of Senators and Navy Department officials merely by way of contrast. Here was a Jewish boy, a cadet at the Academy who had been caricatured on account of his race in the year book of his class. When learning of it his Senator rises to the floor of the Senate to champion his cause, and not only gets reaction in the Senate but gets action on the part of the Navy Department. On the other hand certain Senators have risen in the Senate itself and heaped the most insulting epithets upon colored Americans without even being called to order by the presiding officer. Such respect as the Jews command is due to power and the Negro must find the equivalent of that saine sort of power before he can command the same respect. EDISON KNOWLEDGE TEST real quiz which Thomas A. Edison puts applicants for employment in his plan with a great deal of interest. They affer and paragrapher a good deal of matter those who wish to try out their studied subjects, a splendid chance to do what's questions are generally asked to find geography, history, commerce, sci- learning. Any one who is able to aasks, may put themselves down as he reral subjects. For example in the pics, in what State is Pike's Peak? Naming localities in the United States. The periodical quiz which Thomas A. Edison puts to the young men who are applicants for employment in his plant have come to be watched with a great deal of interest. They afford the newspaper writer and paragrapher a good deal of material for fun, and they provide those who wish to try out their stock of information on varied subjects, a splendid chance to do so. Mr. Edison's questions are generally asked to find out what one knows about geography, history, commerce, science or some other branch of learning. Any one who is able to answer all the questions he asks, may put themselves down as being well-informed on general subjects. For example in the present set of questions he asks, in what State is Pike's Peak? Name two principal salt producing localities in the United States. From what source do we obtain iodine? Who discovered the radium ray? Who was Fernando de Soto? Who is the present Secretary of the Navy? Who wrote "The Charge of the Light Brigade?" What is the fundamental difference between our alphabet and that of the Chinese? Name four localities where civilization existed 3000 B. C. What was the Spanish Armade? How come he ain't see you was not at home? Write this in correct English. There are nearly one hundred and fifty questions of which the above are examples. It is quite a pleasant game to go through the whole list and see how many you can answer. But in his latest quiz Mr. Edison depends from the general trend of the questions asked. He puts two questions, the answer to which cannot be found in any that handle any pyneclapodia. Question 109 ing games with a man you have never seen before. On the first time he finds a pet hand. You have three eights after the draw. There is fifty cents in the pot. He bets a quarter. What are you going to do and why? Why Mr. Edison asks this question, he alone can tell. Did he ask it to test the applicant's shrewdness or his judgment, or did he ask it to find out whether or not the applicant was a pokerplayer? Question 147 reads as follows: You are a salesman making every effort to get an order from a big manufacturer who is married to an unusually jealous wife. One evening you see this prospective customer dining in a restaurant with a chorus girl. What would you do. It is harder to guess why Mr. Edison asked this question than to guess why he asked the poker question. Perhaps he asked it to find out whether the applicant had sense enough to attend to his own business. NOT SELF-RUNNING. Under the unflattering headline commentary, "And It's True," the Pittsburgh Courier reproduced the following sketch, which was credited to the Houston Daily News: Across the street is a Negro grocer. I am black and a customer. I love my race; love it passionately. I want to see it grow into a great industrial power. Owning ships and railroads, and majestic skyscrapers. From groceries spring big things. I decide to patronize my grocer. I want to see my race prosper. I go in. There is nothing offensive about the place. It is a regular grocery store. On the shelves are rows of tins of salmon and jars of marmalade and tempting preserves. The grocer is clean, alert and brown-faced. A hundred per cent. new Negro. I adore the glitter in his eyes. It is a sign of belligerent upstandingness. I like it. The apron he has on is spokeless white. I like the general looks of things. High up on the walls is a sign: "If you don't see what you want, ask for it." I begin to order. "No!!" the grocer mutters. "I don't think I've got any herrings left. I ordered some only yesterday and I haven't got 'em yet." "All right, I don't care for the things anyway. Friend asked me to get them for him. Have you got any mayonnaise? Give me a jar—a nice large one, please. No mayonnaise? That is all right. Give me a couple slices of ham—nice, fresh boiled ham, please." "Sorry, but I am entirely out. I forgot to order a new supply. I guess I'll get it today. No, I haven't got any." "Well, I see me see. Give me five pounds of sugar. I've been trying—" "Seems as if I'm out of everything you want." smiles the grocer. "But it is this way, sir. Sugar is a thing I've got to buy in wholesale lots, and unless I buy in large quantities I'm unable to get it. Competition is so awful high. And you know what the small dealer is up against—big overhead, small profit, turnover. It doesn't pay to invest too heavily in any one line." I do not swear. I am ignorant of the technique of grocerying. I walk out. I go to the Jew next door. Of course all Negro grocers are not always out of the goods their customers want any more than they are too indolent and indifferent to serve their demands, as depicted in a popular musical melange. But there is enough foundation for both these sketches to warrant the comment of the Courrier, that "your business cannot run itself." Full stocks of fresh goods and courteous and efficient service are essential to success in all lines of retail trade. PROFITEERING GOES ON. PROFITEERING GOES ON. While the game of proftering, or extorting exorbitant profits upop investments, has abated somewhat in such necessaries as food and clothing, rents still continue to soar to unheard of heights. This is undoubtedly due to the fact that new building has not yet caught up with the demand for housing and the congested conditions continue unabated. The acute conditions prevailing in Harlem in the districts given over to colored tenants, are reflected by the prevailing rates of ten to fifteen dollars a room for apartments of six rooms or more. Private houses are said to rent for from $125 to $175 per month. No relief is offered by the acquisition of the few additional properties offered to Negro tenants, as immediately upon such houses being vacated by the white tenants, the rents are boosted. After one transfer of this sort, the rents were raised from $60 and $75 per month to $125 for the same apartments. In the case of houses, rents have been increased from $75 to $175. To add to the hardship involved by this insane rent boosting, most of the wage earners of the race have experienced a reduction of wages. Cools who used to receive $50 and $100 a month have dropped to $40 and $50, while unskilled labor that not long ago was getting $6 and $8 per day is now reduced to $4 or $3.60. In view of this falling off of income, the rent question has become more serious than ever. In order to keep a roof over their heads the wage earners whose pay has been decreased are obliged to resort to all ports of devices. Some have disposed of their furniture, given up their apartments and hired one or two rooms, and take their meals at restaurants. Others who cannot solve the question of living in this way, sublet as many rooms as possible and make their subtenants居 the burden of the rent. This is not always a desirable solution as it tends to increase the congestion of housing, with its attendant danger to health and morale, especially where there are children in the family. In a fair open, when the family was small to medium, all the public living areas were the main incurred in keeping the rooms in order. But the general result of such congested housing is harmful. The only practical remedy for existing conditions is the increase of housing accommodations and the possibility of an early increase appears to be doubtful. No apartments have been constructed to meet the especial needs of Negro tenants in Harlem. The properties offered for their occupancy have been those formerly tenanted by whites, when the owners found it to their advantage to either sell or rent for occupancy by Negroes. Property owners and real estate agents are not in business for altruistic reasons, and their general policy is to reap the highest returns possible on their investments. The State has endeavored to limit the rents to a reasonable return, on the investment, but a system of repeated transfers and juggling of ownership has defeated this purpose, together with the fact that tenants feel that they must pay any rate demanded in view of the scarcity of housing. What is needed is the erection of model tenements or apartments, of three or four rooms, at moderate rentals, that would obviate the necessity for taking lodgers or subletting rooms. Whether these could be constructed within the limits of Manhattan at the present cost of land and building is doubtful. Land for such a purpose would more likely be found available in The Bronx or in Queens. The next question arising is, whether if such apartments were provided outside of Harlem, could any paying number of the present dwellers be prevailed upon to remove outside the district. In the meantime the real estate owners and agents who are responsible for the continued system of profiteering should bear in mind that there is such a bear as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. With the present reduction in the earning capacity of their tenants, there will come a point where the ability to pay extortionate rents will end. It is not good business policy to pay inflated prices for real estate on the supposition that the present rental can be continued indefinitely. The resumption of building or the driving out of the tenants from the district may bring about a slump in real estate values in the next few years. --- Col. Robert T. Kerlin, who was ousted from his position as an instructor in the Virginia Military Institute, because of his outspoken plea for justice in the case of the Negroes condemned to death in Arkansas, on the pretext of rioting, spoke to a large and enthusiastic audience at Richmond June S. under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Col. Kerlin was quoted in the St. Luke Herald as follows: "I have a vision that some day this great mistake of inequality will be swept away. I will save my people from a growing bitterness and estrangement. I dare to dream these things like the dreamers of old. I dare to aspire to be a friend of Immunity and I am never ashamed of being a friend of the Negro or of championing his cause. I stand for the true America, the America that knows no racial difference." One of the great needs of the white South is more outstanding spoliteness with the violin and the counterpoint exhibited by Col. Kerlin. In the column of "Book I," conducted by Miss Mary White Olvington in the Cleveland Call there recently appeared a review of "Diet and Race" by F. F. Armitage. The author advanced the theory that call is what makes blondes and its absence makes brunettes, which gave rise to the following comment: The author asks himself the question as to whether the thirty-cloned man will grow higher in time to the eating of much salt. For salt is now a commodity obtainable all over the world, and is unable to answer it. So, I presume, are we? But it is an entertaining question, and leads one to wonder whether the lightening of the skin of the American Negro is wholly the result of a mixture with the white race or whether some of it has come from bacon and spare rib! And should not our vegetarian friends be sure to put much salt upon their potatoes, if they wish to keep the color they now are. Well, we never thought, much of color anyway, and now we learn that it is a more pinch of salt! The next thing we know, the heavy pariors will be offering sodium chloride as a blooding agent, warranted to effect some magical lightening of the skin. The great alchemist who said that the American people liked to be handcuffed, might no exceptions so to speak on colon. Thomas, two worthy Negro citizens of Peninsula, served on the jury in the May warm of the United States District Court for the northern district of Florida. The Seninul said: A damage suit for a half million dollars, brought by the Peninsula-Matime Company, against the Texas Company was tried, and the trial jury contained these two men. The case is summed nearly a week, and the jury is bringing in a verdict for $555,000 for the plaintiff. The names of Pons and Thomas being among the twelve men who did this case is of interest owing to the magnitude of the case. Negro citizens serving on the jury in this court are so rare a thing as is in the court district. While jury service is often a hindship to the individual concerned, its performance is a concrete evidence of its ability to citizenship. Such instance that described above should be an lesson to the people and the State authorities of Florida. W. Forrest Cazart, writing in the Indianapolis Freeman on "The Story of the White Man" quotes from savior authorities to substantiate his statements that the Anglo-Saxon is to his original savage state than Negro is to his. He claims: While the white man can only trace his Anglo-Saxon ancestors back a thousand one thousand and fifteen hundred years, the Negro can trace his ancestors back through Africa, Ethiopia and Egypt, covering a period of over a thousand years. Biology teachers that racial characteristics are inherited and if this be true, so, the white man being in close proximity of his ancestor, may account for the action of the white mobs throughout the country, precipitating race riots, or for the black lynchings and burnings of human beings in the South. This is an interesting theory which should open a fertile field for investigation by students of ethnology and sociology. In the meantime something should be done in the way of domestic missions, to bring the light of Christianity and civilization to those communities where mob violence and lynching are popular diversions. The Kansas City Call maintains that day dreams serve a useful purpose, and argues to this effect: The close of school is the beginning of life for the boy and girl. The hope that have been nurtured through the years must now be measured at side grim reality. The castles in Spartan tricked out with every beauty and comfort, turn into humble cottages in Kansas City that have to be bought and paid for. The boy and the girl will be disillusioned, but after all, it is better to dream it is sanger to people the mind with fancies, than to be so much a creature of earth that the body is the limit of the soul. By all means let the end of school be the commencement of the struggle after the unattainable Man would be a worm if he was content with what he has. The divine quality of discontent is what spurs human kind on to the achievement of higher things. If day dreams serve that end, they play their part in the eternal scheme. PRES. HARDING AND LINCOLN. Editor of Tit. New York An. When President Harding, in his address on May 30, dedicated the white temple erected in Washington city to the memory of Abraham Lincoln, and precedence to Mr. Lincoln's bene- savior of the Union instead of the Great Emancipator of 4,000,000 she he was not only reversing the reef of history, but catering to the pro- duces of the Southerners in charge of the ceremonies. For was not John Temple Graves, the main instigator of the Atlanta root, the resident commissioner of the memorial? Said President Harding: "But he would have been the last man in the republic to resort to arms to effect its abolition. Emancipation was a means to the great end-maintained union and nationality. Here was the great purpose, here was the towering hope, here the supreme faith. The unfit must be preserved. It was the critical thought, the unalterable purpose, the unyielding intent, the foundation of faith." Be as it may. We, however, have read somewhere that "The offended plans of mice and men all gang agile. The time had arrived for the abolition of slavery in the United States. The almighty used Abraham Lincoln as a humble instrument in His hands to bring about the result. Furthermore, the Union could never have been saved had not the man been freed. And during the prosecution of the war, Mr. Lincoln gradually and thoroughly convinced this fact. For Free Harding to then assert the Abraham Lincoln will be remembered more for the saving of the Union than for the treeing of the claves is, to press it mildly, putting the cart before the horse. When however we read or learnt of the segregation of memorials of the race (on that most eventful occasion for whose emancipation Lincoln was assassinated, we were not at all surprised at some of the startling wield to which Mr. Harrog gave utterance to mollify the feelings of his Southern audience.

Activities of Invisible Empire on the Increase Madam C.J. Walker Preparation If you want Beauty of Complexion and loveliness of Hair try Madam C.J. Walker World Renowned Toilet Preparation. (ALL DIRECTIONS ON EVERY BOTTLE) BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, CITY OF BROOKLYN Madam C.J. Walker Grand Lodges in that State by Arthur D. Prince, Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Masons of Massachusetts. In the letter Mr. Prince denounced the Ku Klux representations of Masonic friendship as false and he branded the Klan as an "un-Masonic organization, utterly without Masonic support or sympathy," calling upon all Masons to "protect the fair reputation of Free Masonry from being spotted by any connection with such an organization." Denounces Floating of Law. Asking how long it would be "before the law-abiding people of this Commonwealth visit dire punishment upon those who forget or flout the sovereignty of the law," the letter concluded with a declaration that "no Masonic Temple or apartments must be used for the Klan's purposes." Behind the plain language of the supreme Masonic officer of Massachusetts lies an audacious program of E. Y. Clarke, vice-imperial wizard and imperial kleagle of the K. K. K., and a ring of his Atlanta associates to throw across the American continent the menace of a secret political organization to carry the cross of Know-Nothingism. And first and foremost in the program is an unmasked effort to associate Masonry in the plot. The details follow: Finding that the anti-Catholic sentiment in the United States fairly well worked up by the original Klu Klu collectors, the Atlanta promoters, conceived the idea of a super-organization devoted exclusively to the political field and aiming at the exclusion of Roman Catholics from public office, from places as teachers in public schools and from positions of political influence. New Clique Formed. The result was the formation by a clique including it, is said, Carl F. Hutcheson, notorious author of the "Unleash Your Dogs of War" editorial inciting religious war on Catholics, and J. O. Wood, editor of the *Searchlight*. This group, still a paper organization, is to be known as "The Great American Fraternity." To become a member of this body it is necessary to send $5 to No 316 Hurt Building, Atlanta, Ga., where none of the promoters is willing that his name be connected with the scheme. But there is one other requirement. For even with $5 it is not possible to become a member unless one is a member in good standing one of the following organizations: "Free and Accepted Masons, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, Junior Order of United American Mechanics, Guardians of Liberty, Sons and Daughters of Washington, Order of the Eastern Star, Daughters of America, Knights of Luther, Loyal Grange Institution, National Order of Pathfinders, Order of De Molay, and the feminine members of their families who are 'otherwise qualified.'" The original announcement named $3 as the required membership fee. A subsequent announcement raises this to $5. Every official of the Klan who can do so plays his Masonic affiliation for all it is worth twenty-four hours a day. Indeed, the appeal for members is made on the ground that the Klan is a militant body picking up where Masonry leaves off. But not every Klan officer enjoys Masonic affiliations. There is significance in the fact, for instance, that several of the "all highest" do not. They include William Joseph Simmons, the vacationing wizard: E. Y. Clarke, the vice-wizard, and others of the imperial auilif. The Grand Master's Letter; In his letter to the Massachusetts lodges, Grand Master Prince wrote in part as follows: "As a Grand Lodge, we would take no interest in this organization but for the claim made by its officers and organizers that its membership is largely Masonic and that it has Masonic approval and support. This statement is absolutely false. The Klan has no connection wish and neither does have the support of any Masonic jurisdiction. To the contrary, in jurisdiction where the Klan has been active Grand Masters have repudiated its claims in the strongest terms and have issued edicts warning their members against the Klan under penalty of Masonic discipline. Making False Claims. "It was not supposed that an organization with such principles could gain a foothold in this Commonwealth, but from information that I have received the organization is beginning activities here, making the same false claims of Masonic sympathy: "Without hesitation, I declare the Ku Klux Klan an unmasonic organization, utterly without Masonic support or sympathy. "It's avowed principles violate Masonic law at every point and it would be impossible for me to conceive of a Mason who could so far forget his Masonic teachings as to affiliate with an organization which advocates taking the law into its own hands, condemning men and women in secret trials and imposing the punishment of the whip, the tar bucket or unlawful hanslip, the Forces Dire Punishment "How long, will it be before the law abiding people of this Commonwealth visit dire punishment upon those who forget or flout the sovereignty of the law. "This is not an edict against the Ku Klux Klan. We cannot prevent misguided men from joning it and the arm of the law will soon reach those who join in its overt acts. "But we must protect the fair reputation of Freemasonry from being spotted by any connection, official or otherwise, with such an organization. No Masonic temple or apartments must be used for their purpose, and let every Mason who is tempted to join the Klan consider it well if he can harmonize his obligations as a Mason with the principles of the Klan.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS A television program has ever had more successful showing in Harlem than "Square Joe," which played to greater heights at the Roosevelt house on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, June 18, 19 and 20. It was estimated that at least 8,000 people saw the picture during its three days showing here, and many complimentary shows were said about it by the spec- On Sunday evening, Miss Marion Moore who portrayed one of the principal parts in the picture appeared in person and received a big ovation. Bob Sliger was also present at this performance and received a cordial reception. At the performances on Monday and Tuesday nights, Joe Jeanneette appeared in person and was enthusiastically received. The director, J. Harrison Edwards, was much encouraged by the reception the picture received here, and states that it is his belief that Negro pictures will in the near future become an important part of the motion picture industry. "Square Joe" is being booked, and will be shown at all-colored theatres or theatres with large colored patronage throughout the country. FLORENCE MILLS AT LAFETTE NEXT WEEK An extraordinary attraction will be at the Lafayette Theatre next week when the Colonel Brothers will present Florence Mills and her Plantation Revue Company of forty at this theatre. Miss Mills is rated by many as the greatest female star of the race, having been for some time one of the stars of "Shuffle Along." She left the show several months ago to join "The Plantation Revue" at the largest salary ever paid a colored woman. This attraction ran for more than three months on Broadway, and next week will be the first time that Miss Mills has been seen off Broadway in a year.

We, Emmett Anthony and Walter Richardson, and the entire company of The Creole Pollies Revue, take off our hats to the Coleman Brothers, for they are managers-to be proud of. I, Emmet Anthony, have never before been with a show that paid off and gave a ticket home. May the Coleman Brothers prosper, because they are out to lift business. I wish there were more Coleman brothers as managers of shows and yaudhats. Three cheers, so Coleman Brothers, managers of The Lafayette Theatre, New York EMMETT ANTHONY WALTER RICHARDSON KID GIBBONS KNOCKS OUT JACKSON IN SECOND ROUND Alex Kid Gibbons, who was defeated several weeks ago by Willie Walker, staged a come-back at the weekly boxing show of the 369th Regiment, held on Friday night, June 16, and knocked out K. O. Jackson in the second round of a scheduled twelve round bout. Jackson is a newcomer to the regiment, and should have fought in the preliminary times before taking on such a formidable opponent as Gibbons. As it was, he did not have a chance, and was almost knocked out in the first round. His weight was 158 pounds, and flaoz of Gibbons 152. Kid Fuller made his second appearance at this armory, and confirmed the impression made several weeks ago that he is an exceptionally good fighter. His opponent was Jimmy Day of the 9th Coast Defense, who was knocked out in the third round, after Fuller had completely outclassed him in the two previous bouts. Fuller's weight was 123 pounds, and that of his opponent 125 pounds. In the two preliminary contests, Jerry Martin of the 42th won a decision over Kid Brooks of the 369th, and Danny Sullivan of the 212th Regiment defeated Kid Coleman of the 369th. All of the bouts were referred by Odell Crump. BASEBALL Bacharach Giants Win.

These women got what they deserved and no doubt had it not been for the timely shots of the bearder, some poor Negro would have paid the penalty for this crime. How many faked crimes of this kind have been charged up to innocent black men, it is hard to tell.

THE DANGER OF 'TOO MUCH STANDARDIZATION (Special to The New York Age). Hampton, Va.-Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, presented the St. Philip's Church School prize to Arthur P. Davis of Hampton, the ranking scholar and valedictorian of the 1922 class. Mr Davis in his address on "The Contribution of the Individual," made a strong plea that men should discover and develop individualities. He said: "There are many who feel that standardization, the mere following of the crowd, is a sure sign of progress. Theirs is the clearer vision who firmly believe in individualism—the following of one's own best light. "Gandhi has been fighting Western civilization because he believes that it tends to standardize everything. He does not advise the people in India to spin and weave their own cloth because it is economical, but because it tends to develop their own individuality. Of a necessity, the land-worker is a thinker, whereas a machine worker soon becomes a mere coog in the machine. The recent World War, at its best, may be regarded as a protest of the nations against such standardization. Germany set out to standardize, Europe. At the beginning, the Great War was an honest struggle on the part of the nations to maintain their individuality—to possess their own souls. But the tragedy of tragedies is, that many of the nations, because of the mob spirit which the war produced, so soon fell victim to the very standardization against which hither had fought so determinedly at first.

New Rochelle, N. Y.-The one hundred and first annual session of the New York conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church closed here on Sunday, June 19, 1922, with the reading of appointments for 1922-23 by the presiding bishop, Rt. Rev. J. C. Cadwell. The session began on C. David's 14th birthday and Bibho Cadwell was in hand in handling the conference by Bishop W. L. Lee of Brooklyn. The outstanding feature of the session was the fact that moneys raised for general and local purposes were greatly in excess of previous years. This result in larger appropriations being made possible for superannuation and other charitable purposes. $12,000 was raised for general and $4,000 for local purposes. A commendable action taken by this conference was the special contribution made to Mrs. M. R. Franklin widow of the late bishop M. R. Franklin, her son upon a permanent pension. The New York conference will provide for her wants for the remainder of her life. The Rev. N. E. Collins, pastor last year at Westbury, Long Island, was paused upon the superannual list after fifty-two years of activity in the ministry. He will make his future home at Sparkell, N. Y.

The 11 o'clock sermon as Mother Zion Church was preached by the Rev. L. H. Taylor clock. Rev. R. E. Taylor text from the 103rd Palm. The theme of his discourse was the "Loving Kindness of God." Rev. Taylor spoke of the fatherly care exercised by Jacobh over his people. He spoke of the unmistakable distinction between those who are really followers of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and those of the world. He pointed out that contrast in their conduct was so difficult all the time, a testable evidence of the fact that their lives are influenced by the Holy Spirit. The sermon was inspiring and much enjoyed by all present. He painted a beautiful, picture of the reception of the Saints at the final triumph through faith. At the conclusion of the sermon invitation was extended to those desiring to unite with the church. The choir rendered an appropriate selection of music and danced into the church.

"DOUBLE-MINDEDNESS" Hampton, Va.—That humanity constantly requires a few unfinishing Pupiters who will not equivocate, even to themselves, was the opinion expressed recently by Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, in his baccalaureate sermon on "Double-mindedness." "Men and women," said Dr. Gregg, "too often sanction with their heads what their hearts chapmprovve. They say: 'I don't like to do this bit of dirty business, but it seems to be necessary.' 'Business is business.' 'When you are in Rome, you must do as the Romans do.' I didn't wish with myself self-right-standing, but only following instructions.' Well, a man has to live. ' plenty of people higher up are doing worse things.' " Dr. Gregg stated that these are some of the stock excuses which one hearts in defense of a good man's participation in wrong-doing. "The mechanic must take care that his attention to details does not become fussiness; his skillful speed, hastiness. The school-teacher must continually watch herself lest her strictness become harshness. The soldier must be on his guard against both tyranny and slavishness. The lawyer must beware that his zeal for the interests of his client does not lead him into an advocacy of injustice. The physician must see to it that his loyalty to his profession does not cause him to "cover up his occasional mistakes" in the advance of humanity to sounder health and firmer happiness. The minister must make sure that his prosecution with doing good and upholding the Church and the Church's faith does not hind him to the fundamental necessity of sincerity in every word and deed."

Mr. Chavers said "the effort to secure the permit and character necessary to the instituting of the Douglass Nationa Bank served to convince me beyond the shadow of a doubt that politics and the Douglass National Bank, with a capitalization of $250,000, is now a reality. Mr. Chavers visit was in connection with plans to establish a banking institution in Harlem, Rev. A. C. Garner and W. H. Bagnall addressed the meeting, outlining the present status of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Musical numbers were rendered by Miss Ethel Gary.
