Shall Serve the Entire Community at Times CHILDREN TO PLAY ON DRILL FLOOR OF DAYS Cooperative Enterprises, Medical Clinic, Forum, Women's Exchange, Etc., To Be Operated One of the most novel armories in the country will be that of the 15th Regiment, N. Y. G., for the erection of which bids were opened recently. It will be more than a home for the 369th, more than to the Old 15th New York, the famous Negro regiment which was the second of all New York National Guard troops to be sent overseas and which fought with four major battle forces in its victory medal and French Croix de guerre on its regimental colony regiment of New York qualified for this distinction. PHOTOGRAPHS taken of Herbert Dent's head and face, after he had been beaten to death by three detectives in the West 135th street station early in the morning of June 27. Photographs show plainly, as indicated by white strings, wounds on both right and left forehead, left eyelid and cheek and mouth. Many Cases Indicate Epidemic of Brutality As Practiced By Members of Police Force The death on June 27 of Herbert Dent, the eighteen-year-old Negro, following a beating administered to him by detectives in the 135th street station house, where Dent was under arrest, has given rise to endless criticism and denunciation of what is termed unjustified police brutality by members of the New York police force. Numerous cases of alleged brutality are being enumerated, but not all of them are susceptible of substantiation at this time. But from possible evidence, and especially from the number of cases from other sections of the city it would seem that there is ample foundation for the charge that the beating to death of Dent was unjustified. After Dent's body was turned over to his family for burial, relatives called in two reputable physicians and had a careful examination made of the corpse. This examination revealed that Instead of a great citadel with an enormous drill floor used once a week in winger, it is to be a building constantly in use for the benefit of the community. The plans for the undertaking of this interesting work were conceived by Col. Arthur Little, commanding officer of the 15th Infantry of N. Y. N. G. When Col. Little assumed charge of the regiment, with, which he fought as a Major in France, he saw the possibilities through the interest evinced in the regiment for a genuine constructive work among the 300,000 colored people in New York. Site on Fifth Avenue. This armory, the foundation of which is now nearing completion, is being built upon a plot 200 by 300 feet bordering on Fifth Avenue, between 142nd and 143rd Streets. The complete plan provides for an administration building upon a plot about 100 feet square on the 143rd Street side of the building, extending out from the drill shed and facing the ground. In order to build the building, there will be a number of days in which the building will be完成。 argument and their families will be permitted to participate in the benefit of any of the departments of social service, provided a 75 per cent. standard of efficiency and duty has been attained by the member. A medical clinic is to be maintained for the benefit of the families of members in good standing. There will also be a legal department and employment bureau. Other features will be an exchange for women's work, clubrooms, sports rooms, a gymnasium, forum for community meetings, dance hall maintained upon a self-supporting basis. The drill floor will be made available during day hods as a playground for the children of the community and managed under the leadership, of the Playground Association. Col. Little's Plans. The Board of Estimate and Apportionment appropriated $500,000 to start the building of the armory on July6, 1921, and as much more is needed before the building can be completed. In discussing this unique plan which marks a new epoch in welfare work Col. Little said, "I shall devote my most intelligent effort to the development of a regiment which must win recognition as bulwark of strength to the law abiding interests of the community, and as an institution of pride to the colored race. "I believe the 15th Infantry can be and should be developed so as to change a great population of a race, which has never failed to do its duty, in a national emergency from the field of being a potential-liability to the field of being a very positive asset. "In my opinion, my plans, when carried out, will make the national Guard service so popular and so valuable to the eligible youth of America as to eliminate the necessity for recruiting drive, in the future. In other words, an opening for national guard service will be looked upon as a personal privilege as well as a public duty; and the full authorized strength of the organization will be maintained with a written list, thereby insuring the attention to duty of the man who in in and does not want to be dropped. rumors circulating around to the effect that Dent had been shot were unfounded. But it also revealed that the young colored man had been the victim of a most brutal and savage attack by the detectives. Three photographs of the dead man's head are reproduced herewith. A description in words is unnecessary. The pictures speak for themselves. Especially striking is the middle picture, showing a gash in the throat that might have been made by some sharp-edged weapon; instead of by the blackjacks which the officers are reported to have used. Wounds on the forehead and throat and bruises on the face show the ferocity with which the three policemen defended themselves from the attack of the lone unarmed prisoner. Notwithstanding the published reports that Dent had pulled Detective Redding's revolver from its holster and was pressing it against that officer's stomach, it can be stated definitely and without qualification that he did not draw the gun from the holster. An officer of the 135th street station, high in authority, has informed THE ACE that the safety catch on the holster prevented this same high official declared also that any two officers should be ordinarily be able to subdue and control the most obstreperous prisoner without the necessity of resorting to extreme measures, unless the prisoner was insane or armed.

Attention is called to the fact that daily papers on Monday, July 10, carried a story showing that three policemen had been accused of violence within four days, two of the attacks being made on women. And these were all white, both officers and victims. In one case, Peter Vaughn, a patrolman, was drunk: Daniel Byrnes, an ironworker, living at 917 Eagle avenue. The Bronx, took Vaughn into his house, that the officer might eat and sleep until he was in better condition. While the Good Samaritan was in the front room fixing a couch bed for the drunken policeman, Vaughan entered Mrs. Byrnes' bedroom and made an attempt to assault her. Her screams brought her husband. Byrnes' defense of his wife's honor brought him a severe beating from the young and powerful policeman, and Mrs. Byrnes was badly hurt when Colored Passengers Have Trouble on New York Cars Two Cases in Which Respectable Members of the Race, Resenting Imposition by Whites, are Hauled Into Court on Charges coming more and more pronounced on New York City transportation lines, and it is evident, from the methods pursued by employees of the various lines and by the police, that Negro passengers who have alterations with employees or passengers are always considered to be in wrong. Two occurrences on July 6, one on the Ninth avenue elevated, Manhattan, and another on a Myrtle avenue trolley car, Brooklyn, are typical of the attitude of those in authority. One of Brooklyn's most respected citizens, Andrew J. Carr, Sr., of 603 Herkimer street, Brooklyn, employed as a weigher at the United States Custom House, riding on a Myrtle avenue car, near Franklin avenue, Brooklyn, was called on by the conductor to pay a fare after Mr. Carr had already done so. Naturally he objected to being mulled a second time for one ride, and an argument ensued. During the controversy, Mr. Carr, an elderly man-some 57 years old, was struck by the conductor. The blow was returned and then the street car employee was joined by a number of passengers, both men and women, who united in a brutal and cowardly attack upon the colored man. During the melee, a small pen knife with which Mr. Carr was attempting to defend himself, wounded a passenger-alightly in the right arm. Then the mob of whites became really infuriated, and shouts and cries of "Lynch the nigger" were shouted by the crowd of whites. Detective Thomas O'Brien of the Clymer street station appeared on the scene, however, and placed Mr. Carr under arrest, not a single white person being detained. Arraigned in the Bridge Place Court, before Magistrate Short, Mr. Carr was held in $2,000 bail on a charge of felonies assault. The complaint was Henry Howe of 133 Franklin Street. Barring on the crowd, Lady Duncan very charged against members of the letter of public record, observers point fact that daily papers on Monday, that three policemen had been days, two of the attacks being made on white, both officers and victims. a patrolman, was drunk: Daniel at 917 Eagle avenue.

Byrnes' defense in a severe beating from the young Mrs. Byrnes was badly hurt when in Suffolk Page) Rangers Have New York Cars Respectable Members of the position by Whites, are Court on Charges young colored women and a colored man had an unpleasant experience on the Ninth avenue L, approaching the 72nd street station. Mrs. Frances Tarris, 26 years old, of 64 West 129th street, Mrs. Flora Bryant, 26, of 225 West 140th street, and Samuel Merchant of 100 West 136th street, were passengers on the train, and they aroused the anger of a white man, Frank Morris, 174 West 81st street, when one of the women would not give up her seat for a white woman. The aftair did not go beyond a controversy, but it appears that the discussion was quite bitter. Some unknown white man added fuel to the flame by interjecting a reference to what would happen "down South" If the Negroes stood up for their rights and privileges as passengers on a public carrier. As a result of the argument, when the train reached the 72nd street station, the train guards blew their whistle summoning the police, and the three colored persons were all arrested and held at the West 60th street station on charges of disorderly conduct. As in the Brooklyn case, not a single white person was detained, even though a crowd of whites assembled when the police boarded the train, and uttered threats of all sorts against the three colored prisoners, as well as against other colored passengers on the train. Observers of events who note the effect on the people of such discriminatory tactics, declare that serious trouble will eventually ensue if this policy is not changed. The assertion is made that if a law is violated all parties concerned, regardless of color or race, should be given the same treatment. It is not possible that there can be only one party to a quarrel. In such instances as the two cited it is certain that if the Negroes were violating any law in sending up for their manhood rights then the whites were on guilty in willing to accuse or limit their government of racial persecution. --- Extraordinary Heroism and Daring Shown by C.Saunders Negro Superintendent of Apartment House Fought Through Flames to Rescue White Woman and her Child Women Eludes Grasp, Jumps low-Then Man Swings by Slender Clotheline through Air and Drops Thru Window on Another Floor One of the bravest deeds performed in New York recently occurred on Thursday afternoon, July 6, when Clifford Saunders, the Negro superintendent of the apartment house at 233-235 West 109th street, made an unsuccessful attempt to rescue Mrs. Amelia Gordon (white) and her baby from their burning apartment. The woman, crazed by the fire, fought off the superintendent who had come to her rescue, threw her baby out of the window and then followed, falling four stories into the court yard, and receiving injuries from which she has since died. Dr. Hinkson Assaulted By Brooklyn Policeman "Church Blood-Suckers" Theme of Dr. Hyder's Sermon The woman discovered the fire about 2:30 o'clock, and was seen to appear at the window with her two-year-old baby, Evlyn, in her arms. Her frantic screams soon brought every tenant in the neighborhood to their windows. One of the first to hear the cries for help was Clifford Sanford, the superintendent, who was working on the floor above the Gordon apartment. He ran down to find that the fire had spread over one side of the room. Flames were blocking the doorway, but he fought through to Mrs. Gordon's side. The New York Times tells of his heroic action in the following words: Fights Against Rescue. A shout went up from the many at the windows when it was seen that Sanford was in the room. He attempted to take the baby from Mrs. Gordon. She resisted and those watching could sed the two as they struggled in the room that was filling with smoke. Sanford said that once he managed to get possession of the child, but Mrs. Gordon's fear gave her strength and she smatched it back. Again the superintendent got it away from her but could keep it only a few seconds. All the time he was trying to ally Mrs. Gordon's fears. In this he might have been successful, but that manny came up on fire and as it flared up Mrs. Gordon wrenched from Sanford's hold and threw the baby out the windows. Dr. Hinkson Asss. By Brookly Unnecessary police brutality seems to be prevalent in all sections of the city, and although Negroes are not only the victims, the police have shown an increasing desire to handle colored prisoners unnecessarily rough during the past few months. Dr. Gladstone M Hinkson, a physican and surgeon, of 391 Cumberland street, Brooklyn, although not a prisoner, is the latest victim of a police assault. On July 1, about 9 o'clock in the evening, while making professional calls, Dr. Hinkson was caught in a traffic jam at Atlantic and Vanderbilt avenues. It was raining, and to avoid hitting a taxi-cab, he pulled his car over in the trolley tracks in front of a street car. The motorman told the doctor to go ahead, but the traffic had stopped in front, which prevented him from going ahead immediately. The motorman became impatient and bumped the street car against the back of the doctor's car, doing damage of $25 or more. Policeman (No. 4381) of the 79th Precinct station came up at this time, and as the "Church Blood-Su Theme of Dr. Hy St.-James' Pastor Scores Paras Ex-Booses, Who Further Expense of the --- Dr. F. M. Hyder, pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church, 59-61 West 137th street, near Lenox avenue, preached a sermon last Sunday morning which took the large congregation by surprise. The sermon was polemical from the moment the pastor announced his text and lasted forty-five minutes, the longest he has preached in his seven year's ministry at St. James. The discourse was an exposition and direct application of the one hundred and twenty second Psalm. The theme was: "Church Blood Suckers." Dr. Hyder drew attention to that group of parasites in the church who do nothing but growl and grumble while the great majority do the work and pay the bills. These same people, the minister said, are too singy and selfish to even pay their first amount of church dues, and pretended that the reason they do not pay their dues is that they are dissatisfied with the policy of the church. Dr. Hyder said that self-respect should compel this handful of disgruntled spirits to get out and not require the session to suspend them. The pastor discussed the principle of majority rule, and applied it to the officials of the church in the same tone and manner as he did to the membership. Special attention was directed to some of the ex-poets of the church who was the church on a much pre-other than their own personal proprietary interests. Dr. Hyder took attention to WHEN YOU SEE IT IN The Age YOU CAN DEFEND UPON IT News That Is Informing.

Mrs. Samuel Tauber, who lives on the fourth floor of 231, had begun historically calling out to the mother and to jump. When she saw the baby still the ran to the telephone and called up Police Headquarters. Up so that time there had been no thought of sending in an alarm, because of the breathless interest of those who were watching the struggle through their windows. Mrs. Tauber fainted with excitement as she bump up the telephone receiver. While Sanford and Mrs. Gordon struggled at the window the fire spared. Flames ran along the mantle and caught on the curtain of the window at which they stood. The superintendent was using all his strength: to hold Mrs. Gordon against the side of the window frame while he attempted to quit her. A fold of the blazing curtain fell across the man's extended right forearm. The whole blazing man looked as though it would fall upon them when he momentarily released the hold of one of his hands on Mrs. Gordon and quickly reached up and dragged the burning cloth down. At that instant Mrs. Gordon torse herself free.

Then she (Continued on Seventh Page). Assaulted Brooklyn Policeman traffic started again, ordered the physician to pull his car over to the curb and asked to see his license, which were promptly shown him. The doctor had gotten out of his car at this time, and was examining the rear. After calling him nigger and causing him, the policeman asked if the doctor was looking for damages. This language was resented and the doctor remonstrated with the policeman for insulting him without cause. By way of reply, the officer hit the surgeon a powerful blow in the face and when he threatened to protect charges for this assault, the policeman became more enraged and attempted to blackjack the colored man. He was prevented, however, by two indiscrets caught the weapon and plumed with the policeman not to use it. The doctor immediately went to the 79th Precinct station and preferred charges against the policeman, but so far nothing has been done in this case. It is alleged that only the week previous to this incident, the same police man beat up a colored man in shat vicinity without cause. -Suckers" Hyder's Sermon Parasites in the Church and other Personal Interests at the Church state that his motive in preaching this sermon was to draw a sharp line between the workers and the shirkers. At the close of the sermon, large numbers of the members who shape the policy of th church crowded around the pastor and assured him of their loyal support. Four new members joined the church at the close of the sermon. Collection for the day was $175.50. Next Sunday the subject at 11 o'clock will be: "The wheel within the wheel." COLORED CLUB DONATES TO CIVIC CELEBRATION (Special to The New York Age) Elizabeth, N. J.—The Elizabeth Colored Republican Club enrolled itself among the patriotic organizations of the city when it voted a contribution of $10 to the City of Elizabeth Celebration Fund. Elizabeth celebrated its clearing up of an indebtedness that had obtained since 1882, the exercises occurring from July 1 to 4, and the colored organization at its last regular meeting unintentionally voted to make the donation. Officers of the Colored Republican Club are J. R. James, president; M. R. Dupont, secretary; L. John Patterson. New England K. of P.'s Meet; Annual Address by Chisholm (Special to The New York Age). Providence, R. I.—The fourth annual convention of the Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias, N. A., S. A., F. A., A. and A. opened its four days session here Monday, July 4, and concluded its sessions on July 6. In point of attendance and enthusiasm, this was the most successful convention in the history of the New England grand lodge. Grand Chancellor E. B. Barco provided at all of the sessions. The bodies of the Grand Court comprised half of the delegates and visitors. Supreme Chancellor S. W Green of Louisiana, head of the Order in the United States, was present and made an address. He congratulated the Grand Lodge on the acquisition of its $50,000 Pythian Temple in Boston, and assured Grand Chancellor Barco of his support in all his undertakings. The supreme chancellor gave a resume of the work of the Order in the United States and dwelt especially on the Pythian Bath House at Hot Springs, Ark, which, when finished, will be second to none in the world. "The Knights of Pythias own more substantial real estate than any other colored "fraternal organization," he said. "They have temples ranging in value from $25,000 to $25,000. In its last report, the Supreme Lodge showed a cash balance of $4,932,000." The supreme chancellor was given three rousing cheers when he concluded his address. Grand Chancellor Lee Crawford of the State of New York, who has completed his eighteenth year in this exalted position, brought greetings from the grand lodge of his jurisdiction. The re-election of Sir E. B. Baren as grand chancellor of the jurisdiction of Massachusetts and Rhode Island was received with long and enthusiastic praise. He now enters upon this with term as grand chancellor. Chinaholm Makes Address. The annual address was delivered by Frank P. Chisholm, a graduate of the College Institute, and field secretary of that institution. Mr. Chisholm's theme was "the Status of the Negro in American Citizenship." The facts and figures he presented indicating the progress of the race in religion, industry, education and citizenship were both a revelation and encouragement to the seven hundred people who heard the address. Speaking of lawless conditions in the country, Mr Chisholm asserted that troubulous conditions today were in large part the heritage of the brutal and inhuman treatment the Negro in years past which is now bearing fruit in hatred, illwill and the ruthless murder of other inoffensive persons. "The Herrin, Ill., massacre," he said, "is in large part the direct outcome of the continual lynching and burning of Negroes for many years. Lawlessness and ininite violence unchucked spread rapidly and in time will drug a whole people into a desire for blood host." Mr Chisholm spoke in part as follows: "The Negro has made his most notable progress in religion. In 1800, shortly after slavery was abolished in every part of the country, there were 700 Negro churches with 600,000 communicants, and church property valued at $1,500,000; today we find these figures to have increased to 44,000 churches, 48,000 communicants, and church property valued at $88,000,000. The Negro's progress in education is best summed up in the statement that illiteracy among Negroes has been reduced from 90 per cent in 1890 to 20 per cent in 1922. The property now owned by secondary schools and higher institutions of learning is valued at $25,000,000. Of the $700,000 spent for education of Negroes in 1890, they contributed $90,000; today Negroes are contributing $1,500,000, of the $15,000,000 spent annually for their education. In industry, it has been a record of hard work, thrift and extraordinary tenacity. Today more than 70 per cent of the Negros over ten years of age are caged in painful occupations; starting without capital, land or credit All Kinds of SKIN DISORDERS Believed by Using LIMIT SALVE and LIMIT SOAP LIMIT SALVE 1—Removes freckles, blotches, pimples, blackheads, etc. The skin becomes beautiful, clear and youthful.

CHISHOLM the race owns 600,000 or 25 per cent of all the homes occupied by its members. Negroes now own and operate thirty-six of the larger insurance companies, and 72 babks. They own 20,000,000 acres of land and the estimated wealth of the race approximates one billion dollars. Growth of The Order. In August, 1917, when Grand Chancellor Barco took charge, he found in Massachusetts five wrecked or inactive lodges. Sir Barco built up these five lodges and organized six additional ones and then organized a grand lodge in August, 1918. Upon the organization of the grand lodge, Mr. Barco was elected grand chancellor, and he has been re-elected each year up to the present time. There were less than 100 members in Massachusetts when Barco was first commissioned. There are now thirty-one lodges with a membership of more than 2,000. There were only three Courts of Calanthe in New England when he went on the job. Today there are twenty-three, subordinate courts which were organized into a grand court in May, 1920. Two years ago Brother Barco made the first payment of $5,000 on the Pythians building, which is now the property of the Knights of Pythias of this jurisdiction. This building is valued at $60,000 and is destined to be the shrine of Pythians living not only within the confines of New England, but the shrine of Pythians the world over. The endowment bureau has in cash and resources $14,000. The Courts of Calanthe has in cash and resources $4,000. Something is radically wrong with our Government when it clearly excludes its inability or its indisposition to protect its citizens from mob violence and permits more than 3,000 Negro men, women and children to be burned and lynched in a little more than fifty years. The frequent and bitter race conflicts and brutal lynchings which disturb the peace if no many of our states, and which are rapidly spreading to other parts of the Union, must be blotted out or reduced in number, if the Nation is not to be at the mercy of the dangerous methods of the mob. Towards this dangerous end the Nation is driving fast. Mob rule is spreading rapidly and is subjecting our institutions and our civilization power in the government to superselec mob violence by the reign of mob, the experience of all time shows that lawlessness will spread. Lawlessness and mob violence unchecked spreads rapidly and in time will drug a whole people into a desire for blood lust. DEDICATE DOUGLASS MEMORIAL ON AUG.12 Ansacosta, D.

The other is satisfaction for the mind and soul. No race of modern times has gained this comfort and satisfaction to such full degree as the races of the ancient Orient—who made a deep study of how to live. We, of the New World, have one by one adopted the things these ancient people discovered, and always we have found them good. Gradually, we are realizing the importance of many ancient things which up to now we have been too busy or too careless to think about. One of these is the use of incense, which was considered by the ancient people as vital in living a happy and successful life. Incense—in Years Past and Today Incense was burned in the homes and at important meetings of the wise old Egyptians, Ansysrians, Persians and Hindus. And the Greeks and Romans of classic times, who in many ways were the most civilized races the world has ever seen, made the burning of incense a regular part of their family life and their public ceremonies. And now in our day there is a tremendous revival of interest in the use of incense, and a great curiosity as to the strange powers which for centuries have been associated with its burning. A few people today still look upon the use of incense as a mere fad. They have never prophesy looked into the matter. For true incense, prepared according to ancient formulas, and made of the real ingredients, is admitted by many of the foremost thinkers of the day to have strange influence upon those who come within its circle. Incense Purifies the Air The least important advantage of burning incense in your home is that it purifies the air, and replaces any obnoxious odora with a penetrating, delicate, stimulating fragrance that delights the senses. This benefit alone makes it advisable to use incense to drive out foul odors from the sick-room, kitchen, "den" or bedroom, whenever it may be necessary. Incense Produces a Charming Atmosphere There is, however, a more important use Get the benefits above described, pounded with infinite care of the ancient chemists. Such an incense comes in two marvelous odors—Get it at most drug stores, gift shops have the least trouble, we'll gladly let Small size package costs 35c—laws (incense and small burner) can be set for $1.00.

The out of town guests present were: OUR NEW HOME for incense than merely acting as a purifier. When used during the entertainment of a few guests, or at large parties, the curling waves of fine perfume rising from the incense burners give a new and fascinating atmosphere to the whole room. They seem to act directly on the spirits of everyone present, and make them happier, livelier, wittier, more sociable. Besides, incense makes your hospitality different fromanybody'selse—it makesyouandyour home stand out distinct in the minds of your visitors long after they have departed. Incense Soothes the Nerves Helps the Mind But true incense has powers beyond those of giving social pleasure. It is used by hundreds of great writers, philosophers, artists and other creative geniuses to give inspiration to their work, and to float their minds up and up into new realms of imagination and accomplishment. Every man and woman can use the subtle, delightful stimulus of incense to help them in their mental work — or to give them comfort and peace after a period of tiring activity. For secret society meetings or services, incense is widely used to give the spirits of the dear departed a physical means of communicating with the living, or at least making their blessings and helpfulness felt by those within the magic circle of the incense waves. only by buying a true incense, com- precious substances specified by the JAMES' TEMPLE OF ALLAH, which landalwood and Wistaria.

THE "WORLD" AND THE DYER BILL For some unknown reason, the New York World, a newspaper that should always fight for progress and reform, to carry out the purposes of its founder, the late Joseph Pulitzer, is violently opposed to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, now before the United States Senate. In its latest attack upon this measure, based upon the effort made by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts to have the Senate Judiciary Committee report the bill favorably, the World indulged in the following aspersion upon the motives of its supporters: To do Senator Lodge justice, he knows the Constitution. He can repeat it backward, forward and sidewise. He knows that the Dyer bill is a pure fake, for politics only. He knows as well as do the members of the Judiciary Committee that it is unconstitutional and that the courts will upset it at the first test. But that will take time. Meanwhile, the "Negro vote" is badly needed. No one will accuse the World of sympathy with the Ku Klux or with lack of friendship for the Negro. But friendship is better shown by saying now, and plainly, that this measure will do him no good than it is by passing, with a wink and a jest, a bill that the entire Senate knows to be not worth the paper it is printed on. The Dyer bill may not even pass the Senate. It is sure to encounter opposition from Senators who do not think the name of their great Chamber should be lent to a legislative cheat. But if next October Mr. Lodge in Massachusetts, Mr. Frelinghuysen in New Jersey and other anxious statesmen can say, "Well, we tried to pass-an Ant-Lynching Bill," they will be satisfied. It is a good enough Dyer bill until election, whatever courts or Congress may do with it later. It is perfectly true that no one who has followed the course of the World within the past few years can find cause to accuse it of sympathy with the Ku Klux or with lack of friendship for the Negro. It has conducted the most vigorous and relentless campaign of exposure of the purposes of the masked organization, driving Simmons and his fellow compromiers to cover in disgrace. His sympathy for the Negro has been condemned by uniformly fair treatment in both original and more sensitive with adequate notice of racial progress and the use of the term Negro as a proper room. So neither of the motives mentioned can account for its opposition to the Dyer hill. We may also assume that the World is opposed to lynching or mob violence, whether the victims of such acts are black or white. In fact the World took especial pains to denounce the recent lynching of strikebreaker in Illinois by a mob of miners and the failure of both the county and State authorities to enforce the law. In discussing the miners' troubles in West Virginia and Illinois, the World commented on the failure of State government in this wise: The abdication of one State to operators' gunnar law does not excuse the abdication of another State to miners' mob law. The challenge in either case is to Government, local, State, national, and it must be met. No immediate need of the country is more important than a settlement of the coal strike; the Harding Administration is slowly waking up to its duty in that direction. But more important still is the vindication of public order and the discomfiture of private vengeance that would substitute the rifle and the torch for the scales and staff of justice: The same challenge to government is offered in the lynching of Negroes in the South. The States in most cases have failed to meet it. Hence the course to the Federal authority, through the medium of the Dyer bill. Whether the measure as a law will meet the test of constitutionality raised before the Supreme Court, no living man can tell. Some of the most important issues in the history of the Republic have been decided by a majority of one in the highest court, a bare minority of the judges dissenting from the prevailing opinion. As a measure for the vindication and carrying out the purposes stated in the Constitution of the United States, the Dyer Bill should pass the test of all legal objections. What valid ground has the World for calling the Dyer bill "a legislative cheat?" POLICY OF COOPERATION The value and necessity of the work undertaken by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was thoroughly demonstrated at the recent convention held in Newark. If it had not done anything else, the manner in which this organization has directed the attention of the nation to the lynching evil would fully justify its existence. The manner in which its propaganda has extended to all sections of the country was illustrated by a syndicated article written by John D. Barry, which appeared in the San Francisco Call. In acting the reasons for membership in the association, Mr. Barry said: If you belong you have the satisfaction of helping in a good work. The colored people need all the help they can get. Most of us, in our comfortable security, have no conception of what they have to bear, even those of them that live in our midst, far from those regions where race prejudice is most bitter and where it breaks out in frightful outrages. While the special work of the Association has been in the field of fighting discriminations, mob violence and lynching, it is well to consider whether its usefulness could not be extended by a policy of cooperation with other organizations working for the welfare and progress of the race. There is the National Urban League which has for its purpose the improvement of the condition of the Negroes in the cities, by extending their employment in industry, bettering their housing facilities and safeguarding them against disease and crime. The National Negro Business League aims to stimulate the efforts of the race to build up business enterprises under their own control, and in this way find a use for capital and provide employment for their own people. All these organizations are carrying out a necessary program, and if they would work in harmony of purpose and action, they could undoubtedly accomplish more than by maintaining a solid indifference to one another's efforts. Let them settle upon a plan of operation in their several spheres of influence, so that there need be no conflict but the clearest kind of agreement, whereby one may supplement the work of the other as the circumstances may require. The purely political end of the matter had better be left to the political organizations already in existence and those that may arise as the occasion may require. (11) The proposed law constitutes appropriate Federal action under the fourteenth amendment to prevent the individual State from denying to persons within its jurisdiction the equal protection of its laws. With all these bodies working in close harmony for racial progress, there is every reason to believe that the work will be greatly advanced. We find the solid ground of fact under our feet at once when we regard the proposed law from this angle, for the States in fact do not give equal protection. You know and I know, everybody, even the individual members of the Supreme Court know, that the victims of lynching mobs do not get the equal protection of the State's laws, that State and county officials do not try to prevent this crime as they try to prevent other crimes, that they do not try to punish this crime as they try to punish other crimes. This is susceptible of overwhelmingly convincing demonstration. And it is of the greatest importance, in my estimation, that a strong record, showing in graphic detail the unequal protection afforded the victims of lynching mobs, should be made before the committee which has the bill under consideration, or in whatever place and manner is appropriate, so that this record can be brought before the Supreme Court when it passes on the constitutionality of the law. Discussing the movement to revise some of the unruthful histories that have been used in the public schools, the Kentucky Reporter, published at Louisville, recently said: Facts are facts. History text books for use in the public schools are supposed to tell facts, not the viewpoints of the historian. When the writer of history prior to the war admits that he has changed his history because subsequent events changed his viewpoint, he admitted that he was a writer of fiction, not of history. It is worth noting in passing that it is in record with the fundamental purpose of this amendment for the Federal Government to take action to insure the Negroes particularly equal protection. Their plight was the cause of the amendment being adopted; their plight now is the occasion of this legislation. The weakness of nearly all school histories from a racial point is the omission of the part played by the Negro in the making of the nation. To properly repair this omission, recourse must be had to such special works as Williams' "History of the Negro Race," Col. Wilson's "Black Phalanx," Scott's "History of the Negro in the World War," and other volumes by colored Put is such inequality as the Negroes suffer in connection with lynchings the denial of equal protection by the States which the Constitution prohibits? To anticipate such an objection we should next observe the inequality in administration is a denial of equal protection of the laws. It hardly seems possible to make any definition which more exactly fits the existing conditions with respect to lynchings than the constitutional phrase "duty the equal protection of the laws." It is clear that this must not be taken to mean only the passage of discriminating statutes or ordinances. The language of the provision we rely on is sharply distinct from the language of the preceding provision against discriminating legislation, which is that "no State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities," etc.; not to deny that equal protection of laws imports not only an obligation to make no laws which discriminate but equally an obligation to enforce all State laws in existence, so that all persons within the jurisdiction of the State enjoy equal protection from them. But the Supreme Court has said this very exactly: The denial of rights given by the fourteenth amendment need not be by legislation. (Saunders v. Shaw, 244 U. S. 317, p. 320). So, in Tarrance v. Florida (1888 U. S. 519), Mr. Justice Brewer said, page 520 (the italics are mine): The contention of plaintiffs in error is that they were denied the equal protection of the laws by reason of an actual discrimination against their race. The law of the State is not challenged but its administration is complained of. As said by their counsel: "We do not contend that the colored men are discriminated against by any law of the State in the selection of names for jury duty, nor do we contend that a Negro being tried for a criminal offense is entitled to a jury composed wholly or in part of members of his race, but we do claim that a Negro is tried for a criminal offense he is entitled to a jury selected without any discrimination against his race on account of race, color, or previous conditions of servitude; and when this is not the case he is denied the equal protection of the laws as guaranteed by the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States." Such an actual discrimination is as potential in creating a denial of equality of rights as a discrimination made by law. But such an actual discrimination is not presumed. It must be proved or admitted. I believe the Supreme Court will come to adopt the reasoning ably expressed by Krekel, D. J., in his charge to the jury in United States v. Blackburn (Fed. Cas. No. 14603): The court says further (p. 345) of the fifth section of the amendment: We have said the prohibitions of the fourteenth amendment are addressed to the States. * * * A state acts by its legislative, its executive, or its judicial authorities. It can act in no other way. The constitutional provision, therefore, must mean that no agency of the State, or of the officers or agents by whom its powers are exerted, shall deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. * * * Power was given to Congress to enforce its provisions by appropriate legislation. Such legislation must act upon persons, not upon the abstract thing denominated a State, but upon the persons who are the agents of the State in the denial of the rights which were intended to be secured. Such is the act of March 1, 1875, and we think it was fully authorized by the Constitution. As lately as 1912 in Home Telephone & Telegraph Co. v. Los Angeles (227 U. S. 278), Mr. Chief Justice White said at pages 286 and 287: * The provisions of the (Fourteenth) amendment as conclusively fixed by present decisions are generic in their terms, are addressed to the States, but also to every person whether natural or judicial who is the repository of State power. * * * The written constitution of the amendment is that it presupposes the possibility of abuse by a State officer or representative of the powers possessed and deals with such a contingency. The immediate and efficient Federal right to enforce the contract clause of the Constitution as against that who violate or attempt to violate its prohibition, which has always been exercised without question, is but typical of the power which exists to enforce the guarantees of the fourteenth amendment. The provisions of the Dyer Bill are within the scope of these decisions. The bill is entitled "An act to assure persons within the jurisdiction of every State, the equal protection of the laws." Now, sir, I urge upon you the conclusion that you should not refuse to force this bill out of committee and urge its passage with all the power at your command, merely because neither you nor I can guarantee that the Supreme Court is going to take the view of this bill that I have set forth above. The bill is very ably drawn. It is probably the best bill that can be framed under the peculiarly artificial restrictions of our Constitution. It ought to be held constitutional by the Supreme Court. I think it is entirely true to say that the court can hold the bill constitutional on sound reasoning if it wants to. This is the case, therefore, where the problem ought to be put squarely up to the court; it is not a case of passing the responsibility to the court because the legislature does not want to incur the popular odium of refusing the remedial statute. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1922 THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE DYER BILL. A number of our readers have from time to time asked that some light and information on the mooted points of constitutionality of the Dyer Anti-Lyhiching Bill be given. They have requested this information for their own satisfaction and also for the purpose of having facts which would enable them to understand and meet arguments regarding the constitutionality of the Bill. We have therefore, epitomized, as given below, the brief on the Dyer Bill prepared for the Senate Committee on the Judiciary by Mr. Herbert K. Stockton of the firm of Haight, Smith, Griffin & Deming of New York City. This is the first time that Mr. Stockton's brief, which had so much to do with the final decision of the Judiciary Committee, has been given to the public. The brief begins by eliminating a number of old cases and decisions which have been quoted against the Dyer Bill. It then proceeds to show the solid constitutional foundation upon which the Bill stands. The brief is, of course, written for lawyers but we feel sure that if the laymen will not bother his head about the legal citations he will find sufficient in the body of the brief to interest and enlighten him. In view of the many judicial interpretations the Constitution and its amendments have received, it may be well to begin by clearing away certain lines of decisions which might at first sight be thought fatal to the proposed law but which I think can be shown to be irrelevant. It must first be observed that—(1) The Dyer bill rests, or should rest, squarely and solely on a single clause of section I of the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution, which reads: "Nor, shall any State * * * deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." I hope to show later that the proposed law is within the scope of this provision and its supplementary section 5, which empowers the Congress to enforce the provision quoted by appropriate legislation. Meanwhile, it helps clear the issue to note that: (a) The Dyer bill does not invoke the rights of the citizen of the United States as distinct from the citizen of the individual State. Therefore the line of decisions culminating in the Bisbee deportation cases, United States v. Wheeler (254 U. S. 281), has no application. It would be futile, it seems to me, to base an antijllynching law on the constitutional rights of the citizen of the United States in view of that decision. Though not appearing in the statement of facts, I am told the county authorities were part of the armed mob which seized the United States citizens in question, because they were members of the I. W. W., locked them in box cars, and ran them out of Arizona into New Mexico. Mr. Chief Justice White, after stating that the court below had quashed the indictment on the ground that no power had been delegated by the Constitution to the United States to forbid and punish the wrongful acts complained of as the right to do so was exclusively within the authority reserved by the instrument to the several States, cited Cornfield v. Coryell (4 Wash. C. C. 371); Slaughter House cases (16 Wall. 36); Paul v. Virginia (8 Wall. 168); Ward v. Maryland (12 Wall. 418), and on the strength of these cases affirmed the judgment of the court below, observing at page 298: * No basic is afforded for contending that a wrongful prevention by an individual of the enjoyment by a citizen of one State in another of rights possessed in that State by its own citizens was a violation of a right afforded by the Constitution. This is the necessary article 4, section 2, which reserves to the several States authority over the subject, limited by the restriction against State discrimination action, hence excluding Federal authority except where invoked to force the limitation which is not here the case. * A conclusion expressly sustained by the ruling in United States: Harry (106 U. S. 629, 645), to the effect that the second section of article 4, like the fourteenth amendment, is directed alone against State action. See also United States v. Harris (106 U. S. 629); James v. Bowman (190 U. S. 127). It is to be noted from this quotation and from these cases (1) that in United States v. Wheeler the Federal authority to enforce the limitation on the States (e.g. against denying equal protection) was not invoked as it is invoked by the Dyer bill, and (2) that the Dyer bill, to be constitutional, must be shown to be "directed alone against State action," as I hope to show that it is directed. By the same course of reasoning we must also put aside such cases as Logan v. United States (144 U. S. 203), where lynchers of a United States marshal's prisoners were held to be subject to Federal indictment. That case involved the rights of a citizen of the United States, and this fact gave the Federal Government power to act directly upon individuals as distinguished from the State. And at page 206: (b) The Dyer bill does not invoke the power of the United States to enforce the thirteenth amendment, which prohibits slavery and involuntary servitude. The immediate and efficient Federation the Constitution is against those who wi which has always been executed with which exists to enforce the guarantee. The provisions of the Dyer decisions. The bill is entitled "An act ofiction of every State, the equal Now, sir, I urge upon you t refuse to force this bill out of coall the power at your command, can guarantee that the Supreme of this bill that I have set for drawn. It is probably the best peculiarly artificial restrictions be held constitutional by the Sup true to say that the court can he reasoning if it wants to. This problem ought to be put squarel of passing the responsibility to does not want to incur the popul statute. Accordingly we can eliminate such cases as Hodges v. United States (203 U. S. 1), where it was held that the Federal Government could not by legislation act against persons intimidating Negroes from working for wages. This decision was placed on the ground that inability to contract was not an essential element of slavery. Also we can disregard the Slaughterhouse cases and the Civil Rights case (109 U. S. 3), in so far as they deal with the thirteenth amendment. On the authority of Hodges v. United States, the Supreme Court, in United States v. Powell, defeated an attempt of Congress to deal with individual lynchers. It is to be noted, however, that the indictment of the lynchers in the Federal court was under sections 5508, 5509. Revised Statutes, prohibiting conspiracy to injure a citizen in his enjoyment of rights secured to him by the constitution. The court in the Hodges case said, by Mr. Justice Berwer (p. 14): That prior to the three post bellum amendments to the Constitution the National Government had no jurisdiction over a wrong like that charged in this indictment is conceded; that the fourthenth and fifthenth amendments do not justify the legislation is also beyond dispute, for they, as repeatedly held, are distractions upon State action, and no action on the part of the State is complained of. We are thus brought squarely to the question. Do the provisions of the Dyer Bill aim to reach the lynching evil by acting on individuals or on States? DEMOCRATIC HOLDOVERS: Considerable discussion has been tamed among department heads at Washington and among members of Congress over the retention in responsible positions in the public service of Democratic holdovers. The heads of some of the departments and the advocates of the principle of civil service reform favor the retention of many of these other holders on the ground of their experience and their value as trained officials. Those who think that they ought to be dismissed and their places filled with capable men of Republican tendencies, argue that the Democrats are not in sympathy with the policy of the administration and seek to perpetuate the Democratic practices which were condemned by the verdict of the voters. There is something to be said for both sides of this question. A change of political administration naturally brings about a change in the heads of departments, as under our form of government, by parties the principal positions are nearly filled by partisan leaders. It would be out of the question for most of these heads to accommodate themselves to a change of administration, as they would be unable to carry out in good faith a policy formulated by their political oppugments. Only such an emergency as the law would bring Bordertown, Dame corrs and Independents to work in co operation for the good of the whole country. On the other hand, the trained government employee, who does not have to formulate policies, but merely carry on the functions of administering certain duties that do not vary, whether the administration be Republican or Democratic, is undoubtedly more valuable than a new and untrained than appointed sply on the ground that he voted the ticket of the party in power. There are many Democratic holdovers in the government service today who are noted for efficient service in their various capacities and who deserve to be retained. On the other hand there are too many Democrats in the several departments, holding important positions, who are most offensive partisans. These are the men who act as if the Democrats were still in power and endeavor to preserve the most offensive discriminations and practices that characterized the Wilson administration. These are the men who are responsible for keeping up the segregation of the races in public service, and who discriminate against the advancement of Republicans of all colors, no matter how well it has been carried. They are ever on the alert to favor propositions backed by Democratic institutions, regardless of whether they are persistent partisanship in government constitute a reproach anger to the Republican admits which should be alated. Then, there is another class of holdovers who were from the government payroll simple of their political pull, and who adequate return in the way rendered the government. The earthly reason why these do be carried by a Republican tion. This question of retaining holdovers in office should the light of common men who are rendering and who are not playing tained.

It will it comes to recognizing the purpose of the great questions settled by the Peace of the Rebellion, they remain old and uneven and are invaded of their feat. As to giving their votes to the maker of these friendly overtures, their contempt for his self-assessment is so great to contemplate such a possibility. Better relations may be established between the North and South, as they are being slowly brought about between the two races dwelling in the latter section. But it must be on a foundation of mutual respect and the recognition of truth and justice. No permanent peace can be built upon a basis allowing to ancient prejudices and conditioning the principles that Lincoln and died for. Mrs. Margaret Cormoran is the wife representative of the cultural people of Pennsylvania in the Republican State Committee, according to the Philadelphia Tribune. This is another reason that the women are taking their part. Two items of news in the race are pregnant with significant twins, how Councilman Robert L. Johnson, a Negro member of the City Council, presented a resolutionhibiting masked parades within city limits. This blow directed at the Klux Klan received the unanimous approval of the judiciary committee. The item noted the passage of a resolution by the Republican State Central Committee of Kentucky, which met at the ville, favoring the adoption by 100 of a national milt-lyth law. The petition was initiated by an improvement by Hon. Edward Chenault, a member of the committee. The happenings illustrate the value of having proper race representation in judicial organizations.

E. Edwards, for constables; Ira Besson, for constable for the Fifth District, and Waltall Moore, for re-election to the Legislature on his record. It will be observed that the ancient local office of constable is a position most favored by the candidates of the race.

A splendid program has been formulated and members throughout the country are expected to attend. That it will cause more lynchings: as if human nature were so upside-down and go inside-out in Mississippi and Georgia that the lyncher will be more apt to commit his crime, if you give him a chance to get into the penitentiary, than he is now with his present chance to get into the hero column of the newspapers. We will not believe that until it is demonstrated MORE THAN ONCE. That the states if let alone will eradicate lynching: as if the very states that do the lynchings were not the states most solidly opposed to anti-lynching laws and even to anti-lynching education. Why should the rest of the country leave these states "alone"? Civilization in the rest of the country is being victimized by this crime. The most积极 part of the community could reasonably be asked to let highway robbers alone, in the prospect that their own consciences and the good members of their families will ultimately (certainly ultimately) reform them. That there is no occasion or "reason" for such national legislation: as if 4,000 lynched men and women were not just 3,000 superfluous reasons for a law against it. But what reason can you offer to prejudice against itself? And suppose we had to get the consent of every bootleger before the rest of the community could agree upon legislation affecting his profession, or the consent of every "second-story man" before the rest of us could agree on laws against burglary. WILLIAM PICKENS. New York City THE TRUTH OF HISTORY Editor of The New York Age I have just read with much interest the article in the issue of The Age of July I, by Mr. George F. Bragg, Jr. of Baltimore, under the caption "Negro Saved the Union." Mr. Bragg shows in that article that he is a student of history and well informed as to historical events leading up to the freedom of the four million Negroes of this country. He pays just tribute to the worth and friendship of the brilliant Henry Winter Davis to the cause of our race—for perhaps Charles Summer alone excepted, it is doubtful if the Negro race in the United States ever had a stronger or alter advocate upon the floor of either House of Congress than it had in Mr. Davis. Unless, however, we get the proper historical setting of events that called forth, the interances from Mr. Davis which Mr. Bragg quotes in his article, we shall be inclined to magnify the efforts of Mr. Davis in behalf of the Negro, and at the same time to minimize the efforts of the great and patient man who at that time occupied the Presidential chair—Abraham Lincoln. To the Negro student of American history it is a source of profound regret that these two great men—both genuine friends of the Negro—were not in more complete harmony, but if conditions had been reversed, and Henry Winter Davis had been President of the United States charged with the responsibility of putting down rebellion and saving the Union, I doubt whether Henry Winter Davis would have been more radical in his views as to the freedom and enfranchisement of the Negro than was Mr. Lincoln. Mr. Davis probably became estranged at Mr. Lincoln because of Mr. Lincoln's failure to place him (Mr. Davis) in Mr. Lincoln's cabinet—a position given to another son of Maryland, Montgomery Blair. This, no doubt, largely influenced Mr. Davis in the severe criticism to which he subjected every measure of Lincoln proposed for the reconstruction of the states and their representation in the Federal Congress. In the light of the history of the times Mr. Lincoln was probably wiser than his critics. He could not more faster than he did in his efforts in behalf of the Negro if we but study the history of that period. Had the Emancipation Proclamation been issued earlier than it was, the pro-slavery sentiment then ex- THE NEW YORK AGR, SATURDAY, JULY 15, 1929 "111" cigarettes They are GOOD! 10¢ Buy this Cigarette and Save Money liting in the border (slave) states of Maryland, Missouri, Kentucky and Delaware would doubtless have carried those states into the Confederacy, and thus would not have made it possible for Maryland to have formed its State Constitution excluding slavery, which Mr. Bragg tells us was ratified October 12, 1864. Three years of patient effort by Mr. Lincoln in dealing with slavery and the slave power had thus told in its results upon the public sentiment of the state, for we must not forget that Mr. Lincoln had to pass through Baltimore at an hour unknown to the population of that city on his way to his inauguration because of the hostile feeling there against him, and that the streets of Baltimore ran red with the blood of the soldiers of the Union who passed through there on their way to Washington to respond to the call of the President. The controversy between Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Davis was largely due to the question as to whether the President, instead of Congress, had the Constitutional authority to recognize any state government in the rebel states. In his message to Congress December 8, 1863, Mr. Lincoln gave expression to his views upon the subject of Reconstruction, and took such advanced views with relation to the freedom, the enfranchisement, and the education of the colored people of the country as to delight such friends of the Negro as Summer, Henry Wilson, Owen Lovejoy, and others. That Mr. Davis did not accept these views must have been due to a belief that these matters were subjects for Congress rather than executive action, or because of personal bias growing out of the Cabinet incident. If Mr. Lincoln had lived through the period of Reconstruction, a broader and better basis of adjustment would probably have been established for the rebellious states, and the Negro would have been more secure in certain rights than he is today. Andrew Johnson is a splendid illustration of a Radical who became an ultra Conservative upon the subject of Reconstruction after being vested with power. All honor so Henry Winter Davis, Charles Sumner, Wendell Phillips, and the other true friends of their kind! All honor to Abraham Lincoln, who moved less quickly, but more surely, and who gave freedom to four millions of human beings on this continent! CHARLES V. CAUSLER. Knoxville, Tenn. SELECTING CHURCH OFFICIALS Editor of The New York App. Daniel Alexander Payne was a man of "vision" and good judgement. During the general conference of 1892, his fortieth anniversary as bishop was celebrated, and in response to the address of the late Bishop Ward, he said some bighty good things, very pertinent for the present times. Speaking of the A. M. E. Church, Bishop Payne said "I desire to see an eminent man, an eminent minister, an eminent ministering as to avoid an influence, so enlightened and gracious as to be a benediction to all traces; to all the coming generations." Continuing the good Bishop said: "Candidates are pushed to the front by their admirers, who are well known in their lodgages, to be spotted back and front; at the same time, men of middle age who have been successful pastors, successful financiers, and of spotless reputation are overlooked as though they were more ciphers. Of all Negro organizations, none are so scrupulously watched and severely criticized as that of the A. M. F. Church. Therefore she ought to be careful whom she makes secretaries, editors, and bishops. Not for his eloquence, not for his rhetoric should any man be elected to shoulder such great responsibilities. The time has come. I tell you, beloved brethren, the hour is at hand when the spirit of sectionalism ought to be trampled under foot. Not because he is in the South, nor in the North, nor in the West, nor in the East; but because he is competent, possessed of natural endowments, acquired ability, and has given evidence of incorruptible Christian character. We have many such elders among us. Terrible will be the ultimate consequences if we ignore them. And moreover, the A. M. F. Church is in need of officers and secretaries in all of her departments, whose character, intellectual, moral and spiritual, can command the respect and confidence of all Christian denominations."

Washington, D.C. 10019 Virginia Farmers' Conference In 2-Day Session at Hampton Constructive Work Has Been Accomplished Among Rural Residents By the Home and Farm Demonstration Agents, State and Federal Hampton, Va.-John B. Pierce, field agent of the States Relations Service, who supervises the Negro extension work in Virginia and seven other Southern states, reported at the recent two-day Hampton Institute Farmers' Conference that there are at work among Negroes in Virginia 24 farm and 7 home-demonstration agents, who are in touch with 28,000 Negro farm families and who, with twenty-eight county advisory boards, have organizer 305 community clubs in which there are enrolled 7,400 families. In twenty-eight Virginia counties there are Negro farmers' conferences, whose officers are the officers of county advisory boards, which co-operate with the extension workers to help improve the economic and educational conditions of rural Negroes. Every year in Virginia there are held twenty odd county fairs, which serve as educational exhibits for the work of Negroes. Charles W. Pugley, assistant secretary of agriculture; Dr. C. B. Smith, chief of extension work for the States Relations Service; William B. Mercier, agriculturist, extension work, and Miss Grace E. Frysinger, who is in charge of extension methods in home economics—all of Washington, D. C.—represented the U. S. Department of Agriculture. John R. Hutcheson and W. P. Moore, both of Blackburg, Va., the State and assistant State directory of extension work, represented the Virginia College of Agriculture and Polytechnic Institute. The remainder of the official conference membership of 140, in addition to the demonstration agents, was distributed as follows: one field agent, 4 district agents, 49 representatives of clubs, 18 members of county advisory committees, 40 members at large. This conference represented the vital interests of Negro farm families in twenty-five Virginia counties. Rural Life Improvements The home and farm demonstration agents gave detailed progress reports on the constructive work which has been done in helping rural Negroes. Secretary Purgley outlined the policy which teachers and other leaders should take in guiding rural pupils into the study of agriculture and the improvement of rural communities. C. B. Smith, referring to "Who Who in America," which contains about 30,000 names of people who have attained some distinction, stated that of those who have had no school education, there is only one man but of 150,000 men; of those who have gone through the grammar grades, (out of 150,000); those who have gone through high school, 87 out of 150,000; those who have privileged to go to college, 80 out of 150,000. W. B. Mercker summarized the history of agricultural education. Today there are 2,000 county agents and 725 home demonstration agents, about 276 of whom are Negro agents and still about one-half the territory is uncovered. The total amount of men which is spent for demonstration is ranges between $15,000,000 and $18,000,000 each year. He referred to excellent work by two Negro agents—John B. Pierce of Virginia and T. M. Campbell of Alabama. *Dr. Jimmy E. Greene, principal of Hampton Institute, urged the visiting agents and the representative farmers to make careful plans for marketing the products of those farmers who have learned the value of diversifying their crops and are freeing themselves from the evils of the single cash crop system.

He emphasized the value of teaching farmers how to conduct their business according to the best modern business methods. John R. Hutcheson stated that Virginia has the best Negro work in the United States and that in the hands of the Negro teachers is the moulding of the future of their race. That marketing associations in Virginia are getting well under way was the opinion expressed by Director Hutcheson, who stated that some 5,000 peanut farmers in Virginia and North Carolina are working cooperatively and that 75,000 tobacco farmers in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina have signed a contract to market between 375,000,000 and 400,000,000 pounds of tobacco, which will have a value between $75,000,000 and $100,000,000. He urged all demonstration agents to present the extension work program to local groups of farmers. the home demonstration agents help their annual meeting a few days before the annual Hampton Institute Farmers Conference and remained at Hampton for all the regular conference sessions. Instruction was given by a number of the Agricultural School staff and by Mrs. M. M. Davis, State agent of women's work in Virginia; Mrs. Mallie L. Huchus, State girls club agent; Mrs Harry D.

Daytona, Fl.—The Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute as it spreads and grows, not only in well equipped buildings but in the standard of its varied courses offered in music, in the academic, in the industrial department and the McLeod Hospital, has some interesting advantages to offer for the term 1922-23. First, the music department. Beginning September, 1922, we offer a special conservatory course to music pupils especially interested in music. We are having a number of rooms equipped as studios and practice rooms; we are adding more pianos to our conservatory. Our conservatory course embraces theory, counterpart, history of music and musicians and composition. Two efficient teachers will have this department in charge. Josie W. Roberts, who has been in the department as director for the past seven years, is a student of Talladega College, having completed the five year course in music at that place and received the degree of A. B. from the college department. She has studied for two summers at the Chicago Musical College, having received great praise from the professors under whom she studied. The department has grown wonderfully and this year we were visited by some of the best musicians and critics of the country; both white and colored, who expressed themselves pleased at the quality of the work done and the great good accomplished. Second, the academic department. This department has made rapid strides under its most efficient dean and director, Frances Reynolds Keyser, Mrs. Keyser makes a visit each year to the best schools of our county to study their methods and management to that she may put the best in this department to raise the standard to the highest. This year we have made a new departure. Along with other schools that are ambitious for the best we have added two year preparatory work leading to high A SENSATIONAL SUCCESS IN EVERY COUNTRY IN WHICH IT HAS APPEARED Batouala By RENE MARAN Selling 8,000 copies a day in France, Selidom has a book been issued by the public with such keen interest.

This year we plan a larger and more efficient work in our rug weaving and hand crafts; our domestic art and domestic science departments. This department is to have a special specialist who will handle all of the duties under this department. The supervisor is at Hampton posting for the summer. We want this department to be the second Tuskegee of the South. Fourth, The McLood Hospital. This hospital has indeed endeavored to do its missionary part. "Where I was hungry, ye fed me; when I was thirsty, ye gave me drink; when I was sick and afflicted, ye ministered unto me." An eminent surgeon is to be here to take charge of the hospital and direct it. We want this hospital to be to this section what the Freedman at Washington is to that section of the country. All of these things we are offering to the young women who have a purpose in view and who desire to make their lives count by living, serving and doing their best for God and humanity at large.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS State Movie Commissioners Put Ban on Offensive Films Secretary Levenson Tells Buffalo Rotarians That Pictures With Objectionable Racial References Have Been Eliminated The Jewish Daily News, in a recent issue, had something to say relative to moving pictures which will be endorsed by those anxious to see the industry enlarged and its possibilities developed to a greater educational and moral benefit and made more profitable to producers. That the movie is here to stay, and that it can be made a mighty force for good or none would deny. In an address before the Rotary Club in Buffalo, Joseph Levenson, secretary of the State Motion Picture Commission, said that pictures reflecting on races or creeds, belittling clergymen of any denomination, or ridiculing sacred religious customs, are no longer permitted, and references of contempt or ridicule aimed at various groups have been eliminated. determination of the Commission, without some control, there is reason to expect references such as have been mentioned could become offensive, and, which is more, they add nothing to the picture, either in artistic or comedy values. In his address, Commissioner Levenson said the Commission had struck out such terms as "shoony," "kike," "nigger," "wop," "dago," and "polock," and many others as applied to racial groups, not alone because they were offensive but because they would create a hatred, which thinkers—to-day are trying to wipe out. It may be remembered that Governor Miller was moved to approve the bill creating the Commission after he had been given facts which were indisputable as to the wisdom of establish- The News, which has an enormous circulation and commensurate influence, says, after quoting Commissioner Levenson, "If the Motion Picture Commission did nothing else it has justified its existence."

AT LAFAYETTE THEATRE "Jump Steady," a fast and tuneful musical show, is the feature at the Lafayette this week. This show has probably more talented performers in the cast than any similar production shown at this theatre. In addition to the regular cast of the Smarter Set Company, Ethel Waters, the queen of Blues singers; Brown and Brown; Sarah Martin; Chappelle and Stongette; Emmett Anthony and Walter Richards; and Daisy Martin were added attractions. Ethel Waters, who has just completed a tour through the South and middle western states, was given an enthusiastic welcome home, and had to repeat each of her numbers several times. Next to Miss Waters, the biggest number on the program was the dancing of Brown and Brown, who brought down the house with their yellings. The comedy work of Whitney and Turt, Amon Davis, and the singing of "Anybody want a little dog yodle?" by Emmet Anthony, were also enthusiastically received. This production is in many ways the equal of any colored production on Broadway, and should be successful at the old Street Music Hall where they are to take the place of "Smiffy Along," which closes there next week. Besides those mentioned above, others in the cast were Andrew Tribble, Paul Moorefield, Alonzo Fenderson, Julian Costello, Roselle Wickham, George Phillips, Dick Contro, J. J. Jasper, Wilson Dyer, Burde Williams, Nat Cash, Marguerite Lee, Margaret Sims, Ethel Wimpey, Lottie Harris, dessie Sim, Nellie Brown, Helm Fenderson, Elinata Davis, Elizabeth Campbell, Helm Springer, Violet Williams, Ollie McNailley, Etha Pole, Madeline Alston, Edith Sims, Helen Warren, Viola Mandeep Jewal Thomas, Adle Winters, Ray Shipford, Joy Robinow, Jane McCarthy, Peck Craig, Catherine Hlebly, Mary Fortune, Anira Robinson, Sally Evans, Leroy Broomfield, Chester Jones and Al Bowman.

According to reports from other roles, this is the best show King ever produced. determination of the Commission, without some control, there is reason to expect references such as have been mentioned could become offensive, and, which is more, they add nothing to the picture, either in artistic or comedy values. In his address, Commissioner Levi- erion said the Commission had struck out such terms as "shoony", "kike", "nigger", "wop", "dago", and "polock", and many others as applied to racial groups, not alone because they were offensive but because they would create class hatred, which thinkers-to-day are trying to wine out. It may he remembered that Governor Miller was moved to approve the bill creating the Commission after he had been given facts which were indispassable as to the wisdom of establishing some control. No one has ever questioned the good that dogs come from the movie, and the purpose of the commission is to make the industry greater than ever, which Commissioner Levenson says, will be helped by the eliminations he mentioned in his speech to the Rotarians. BEN PONTEAU AND KID ROUX IN 15-RD. DRAW One of the fastest and cleverest bouts ever fought at the 15th Infantry Army occurred on Friday night, July 7 when Benny Penny, former amateur lightweight champion, and Kid Roux of Memphis, Tenn., fought fifteen rounds to a draw. Roux is a newcomer to New York, and gives promise of making a record here. He is exceptionally clever and loves to fight. Ponteau, although slightly nervous in the beginning, put up a skillful fight, leading in almost every round. It was only Roux's ability to dodge and make his opponent miss, that prevented Ponteau from winning the decision or perhaps scoring a knockout. In the early rounds of the bout, the Memphis fighter appeared to be much the faster, but after seven or eight rounds of fighting, he had been closed up considerably. In the last two rounds, he was not missing many of his blows and did very little damage to his opponent. The decision of the referee, declaring the bout a draw, met with the approval of most of those present. Ponteau weighed 154 pounds and his opponent 131". The former amateur lightweight champion was able seconded by Kid Norfolk, the colored light heavyweight champion, who is under the same management as Ponteau. The semifinal bout, between Knockout Evans and Marty Powell, two white fighters, lasted less than one round. Knockout Evans was hit on the chin with such force that he knocked himself out by allowing his head to his first as he fell. He was dizzy for several minutes and had to be carried from the ring. Joe Hall of the 360th and Jerry Marion of the Naval Militia fought a slashing four round bout in one of the preliminaries, with Hall winning by a shade. Both of these fighters weighed 122 pounds. In the other preliminary bout six rounds, Carl Moore of the 30th won an easy victory over Soldier Barry of the 47th Recruit. Barry was several points beaver than his opponent, but was much too slow. He was outpointed in every round. Billy Roche, Eddie Pollock and Danny Bailley were the referees. Next week one of the best bengal bills presented at this armory in some time will be staged. In the main bout of fifteen rounds, Willie Walker, the middleweight champion of the National Guard, will fight a return bout with Kid Gibbons, and in the seminal bout of ten rounds, Terry Matton and Kel Butler will be the contests. MISS HELEN ANDRE SHELLR, AUGUST GA. MAKES DEBUT (Special to The New York Age) Augustus, Ga—Miss Helen Andre Sherrell was given a debut part by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. M.

Miss Alston was the house guest of Miss Sherrill for a week. Both young ladies are students at Syracuse University, Syracuse, N. Y., and are members of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority. TAILORS' ASSOCIATION IN WASHINGTON AUGUST 1 (Special to The New York Times) Burlington, N. C.—Secretary and founder M. K. Tison of the National Association of Negro Tailors and Dressmakers of America announces the third annual meeting of that organization for August 1, 2, 3, at the Whitehall Hotel, Washington, D. C. The association plans to cooperate with the National Negro Business League in the development of commercial propositions among the race. Mr. Tyson intends presenting plans looking toward the establishing of a national cut, trim and make house and woolen sample line on a large scale, and will ask Dr. Motton and the Business League to unite in the proposition. A representative of the tailors body will attend the Norfolk station of the Business League. THE W. W. WOODS ARE, SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1952 Dempsey and Wills Sign For Championship Battle Tuesday, afternoon, July 11, Paley Mullins and Jack Kearns, manager for Harry Wills and Jack Dempsey, respectively, signed articles for the champion to meet the colored contender as soon as suitable bids for the match are received, and the match can be arranged. The possibilities for a bout between These two before next Spring or Summer seem remote, as it is said that Tex Rickard, the most likely promoter for the bout, has emphatically refused to stage it before next year. In order for it to be held this year, some other promoter must secure an arena large enough to hold at least 75,000 people and stage it within the next three months. The agreement will not prevent either fighter from meeting other opponents before their match. Dempsey, it is said, will meet Harry Greb, the light heavyweight champion, in a ten round bout in Pittsburgh, Pa., on Labor Day. Wills has no other bout scheduled, but continues to train at Grupp's gymnasium, 116th street, near Eighth avenue.

NEW YORK PYTINANS TO MEET AT BUFFALO Additional disclosures concerning the arrest of Herbert Dent on June 27 are to the effect that he had not been arrested originally by Detective Redding, but that Detective Scott had made the apprehension; turning the prisoner over to Redding, the latter taking Dent to the station house on suspicion of being concerned in the recent shooting of Policeman McCue. It is also denied that the dead man had any previous prison record. Members of the family declare that he had been arrested just once on a trivial charge six months ago, the arrest being made by a brother of the late Detective Buckley. He was acquitted in that case. Dent was born in Charleston, S. C., on May 15, 1904, and came to New York the first of July, 1921, just about a year ago. When arrested six months ago, he was taken to the East 123rd street station and had never been in the 135th street station until the night he was killed.

Bordentown, N. J.—Increased activity in organization work among the colored boys of New Jersey is sure to be one result of the state conference of colored boys which will soon convene at and under the auspices of the Bordentown Industrial School, at Bordentown, N. J. This conference is given the name of the Bordentown State eConference on Colored Boys' Leadership, and it has the enthusiastic endorsement of practically every prominent citizen of the state. It looks forward to forming a state organization among New Jersey boys between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one with branches in every important town in the state. Athletics will be one of the main objectives of the organization, and it is hoped especially to develop organized athletics in the southern and rural sections of New Jersey, where colored boys have practically no opportunity for, group recreation. The conference will open on Thursday, July 13, and will last until Sunday, July 16. Included in the program are talks on various subjects by Dr. George E. Cannan of Jersey City, C. M. Cain of Atlantic City, Principal J. R. Brock of the same city and C. Lanning Nevius of Newark. The recreation side of the program will consist of every outdoor sport in which boys indulge. There will be swimming, tennis, baseball, hiking and fishing. On Saturday, July 15, is scheduled a state wide track meet open to members of the conference, which will include both junior and senior events, and which will be a forerunner of even bigger meets in years to come. Much rivalry is being shown between the cities, especially of North Jersey, in the effort to send down the strongest athletic delegation to Bordestown. So far, Newark leads in enrollment with the names of nearly forty boys on the registration list. Harold Hopper and H. M. Stewart are active in securing representation from the city. Lester B. Granger, extension worker at Bordentown, states that about two hundred boys are expected to be present at the conference, and tells that the school is extremely anxious to obtain representatives from every city in the state. The charges of maintenance during the conference have been reduced to in low a figure so possible, these dollars being the social charge for room, board and registration fee. Many employers are applying for representation from their schools and municipalities in general and are interested in the possibility of the school receiving the charge. it to be held this year, some other promoter must secure an arena large enough to hold at least 75,000 people and stage it within the next three months.

Mixed Bouts Sentiment Is Opening Door for Boxers Attitude of State Boxing Commission Brings Favorable Reaction Among Managers, Who Are Now Looking for Promising Negro Fighters The recent change in the attitude of the New York State Boxing Commission toward mixed bouts and the favorable development toward a Dempsey-Wills fight in the near future, have brought about a reaction as to mixed bouts in New York City which will make it possible for colored fighters to be contestants in the leading boxing clubs of the city. Already some of the leading managers of fighters in the city have begun to realize what this change will mean to them, and are now looking to find good colored fighters whom they can handle. Several have been to Harlem to witness the mixed bouts at the 15th Regiment Armory so that they may know who are the best colored fighters in Harlem. Although Harry Wills is the most likely Negro boxer to become a champion, there are, nevertheless, a host of colored fighters who will become strong contenders for championship honors in their various classes when the opportunity is given them. Among the colored fighters in the city who will have to be reckoned with are Kid Norfolk in the light heavyweight class; Panama Joe Gans; Willie Walker, Alex Kid Gibbons and Harry Robinson in the middleweight class; Ben Ponteau, Kid Roux, Buddy Saunders, Dan Stewart and Carl Moore in the lightweight class; and Danny Edwards, Kid Buller, Kid*Rash and Terry Martin in the bantam and featherweight classes. New Jersey is also having a reaction as to mixed bouts, which will cause that state to offer splendid opportunities to the colored "leather pushers" in the near future. It is reported that a mixed bout was held in that state last week. Let the colored fighters prepare themselves, for they will be watched, and will have to produce the goods in the ring and lead upright lives outside to keep the door of opportunity open to them.

HOGANS. A Pullman conductor, operating South, related an incident of the shopmen's strikes where a certain rail road company with repair shops at Norfolk, Va., expected their colored machinists and repairmen to stay on the job when the white mechanics went out; but they were mistaken; the colored men also stayed away. In our opinion they did exactly right. There is one thing that can be said in fairness to the Southern white man—he will work with any man, irrespective of color. Then again, Pullman porters dislike seeing colored men used as strikebreakers, especially in the railroad service, due to the fact that there is no group of workmen where colored and white are along so amicably as those employed on the railroads.

Prior to the sermon, the congregation joined the pastor in singing, "Nearer the Cross." The text announced by the pastor is found in Isaiah 40.31. The subject was the "Renewal of promise." The need of strength was clearly set forth as essential to the accomplishment of undertakings. The text used reads: 'They that wait on the Lord shall know their strength; they shall run and not weary; they shall walk and not faint.' This promise of Jehovah to His people through Isaiah, the prophet, when they were yet captives in Babylon declared the speaker, was a bright hope that shone after the darkest of the days of slavery, following their captivity. The accomplishments that behold the membership of this church for which a renewal of strength in necessity are possible by reason of the way of light that shines forth of old faith to help those who wait upon and put their trust in Him. The one great accomplishment pointed out was the building of the new church.

All continued with one accord in praise and supplication with the women and Mary, the mother of Jesus, and with her brother. Pastor Bolden said that the primitive church obeyed the command given them by our Lord, the Empress, they assembled in one place; had one mind with a single aim and purpose; they were constant in their devotion and prayers. This creative spirit gave them strength in the cause that was on their heart. Their abandonment of home and friends qualified them for hearing and obeying the voice of God. At the close of the ten days, they swoke to a realization that they were faithful and earnest prayers had led them to a greater manifestation of their presence and power than they could, and so it is today with the people who will obey the voice of God live in the bonds of peace. memoirs of Pawor Bellon's existence revealing the power of the promised Holy fostering and developing the disciples in our Lord's prim- Christian workers and be- greatly helped in having Hogans assisted in the ser- vice music was rendered by poured the Sunday-school in session Superinten- conducted the opening ex- tremely review.

Between him and the doorway was a curtain of fire through which he could not fight a way. Those watching saw a return to the wainland and said there currently unrestain to his next move. Again the chorus went up for him not to jump. "Help will soon be, here," they cried, and those who could not command a view of what had happened took up the crie. From the window at which he stood a clothes line had been stretched to another window in the same apartment. It bridged a space of about twenty feet. Sanford climbed out of the window, tested the line, and then grasping it with both hands swung out. One of his arms had been pretty badly burned and he apparently could not make his way across the line. There was quiet at every window as the superintendent began to swine his body back and forth. Then, in his own words, he took in chance and did the unexpected. As his body swung back he let go his hold and dropped. The momentum carried him straight through the open window of the room in the apartment below. Amazeed at His Feet. "I don't know how I did it," said Stanford. "I knew I could not get accustomed on the line, and I knew that I could not get back into the room where the fire was. So I had to do something. I took a chance and came through. What a chance I took I know now and I can find no answer to the question that has been asked me a score of times since this afternoon, 'How did you do it?' Sanford landed in a heap in the apartment of Mrs. W. R. Borden. He picked himself up and running back upstairs to the Gordon apartment began to fight the flames, carrying pan glove pan of water from the kitchen and pouring it on the fire. He had made some progress when the firemen got there. Then he went to St. Luke's Hospital. In the meantime neighbors had picked Mrs. Gordon and the baby up and they were receiving medical attention. Mrs. Oscar Bochert, wife of the superintendent of the Monaco Apartments next door, picked little Evelyn up and ran all the way to St. Luke's Hospital with the child in her arms. There it was found that the baby's right leg was broken and her skull possibly fractured. Mrs. Gordon is in Knickerbocker Hospital. She had landed on her feet and of her legs were broken, and in addition of her injuries, injuries Mrs. Gordon is 35 years old. Sanford after being treated in St. Luke's Hospital, went home, and the same evening half the neighborhood had called to congratulate him on the brave effort he had made to save Mrs. Gordon and her baby. - FOR SALE - Will sacrifice 4 story apartment, 4 families, 7 rooms, bath. 127th Street near 70 avenue Easy Terms.

AMERICAN LIBRARIANS CONFER ON WORK AMONG NEGROS One of the interesting features at the annual conference of the American Library Association recently held in Detroit, was a Round Table discussion on the work of Negro students with Miss Ernestine McCormick, librarian at the 155th street library, New York City, presiding. Papers were read and discussion held on support and control of libraries for the Negro, training of Negro librarians, opportunity for the trained Negro to enter the library field, and the establishment of libraries of the large city systems in colored institutions. Wide differences of method and policy as between the North and South were brought out, representatives being present from Louisville, Ky., Indianapolis, Chicago, Knoxville, Tenn., Cincinnati, Birmingham, Ala., and New York City. Mr. Blue, chief of the colored department, briefed the college Library, read a paper of Louisville's work in training colored librarians for work in southern libraries. In preparation for Miss Rose's conducting of this Round Table discussion Miss Watson of the New York Library had sent out questionnaires to leading libraries of the country to ascertain information as to their methods. Answers received indicate that within the next year Negroes will enter the library training schools of the Carnegie Library, Pittsburgh, and of the New York Public Library. A similar Round Table conference will be held at next year's session of the American Library Association. Mrs Violet Welman of Yauxhall, N.
