Negro Boxer Knocks Out Smiling Georges
Carpentier Goes Down Under Terrific Blows From Fists of Battling Siki
Attempt to Disqualify Black Fighter Met With Storm of Disapproval From Crowd of Thousands Attending Fight Another dark cloud has come across Jack Dempsey's path, in the person of Battling Siki, the French African-pugilist, who on Sunday, September 24, won the light-heavyweight championship of the world by knocking out Georges Carpentier, the idol of France, in the sixth round of a scheduled twenty round bout.

Grammier never had a chance after the third round. He was barely able to troop to the bell at the beginning of the sixth. With his right eye complex closed and his nose broken, he was able to put up a guard. In the sixth, the Negro fighter planted a series of terrific rights to Carpentier's head and the French idol crumpled to the ground. One of his legs caught between the legs of the Senagalese while he was falling.
Huge Corwd Secz Idol Wall.
The crowd, the largest that ever witnessed a boxing contest in France, rose and all was uproar. Many persons jumped into the ring and carried the Senegalese on their shoulders to this corner.
The referee, Harry Bremstein, at first ruled that Siki had been disqualified for hipping, but the throng, which conferred that Carpentier had been beaten squarely by a better man, received the decision with a great chorus of boots and jeers—even threatened the referee with bodily harm. The three judges of the fight, Victor Breyer, Jean Pujol, Frenchman, and Mr. Bannion, of London, went on consultation. An hour later they declared the Negro the winner. Their verdict was received with pride thring from the spectators, who had remained in the arena for it, many times in an ugly mood. Carpentier had hosted by large numbers of the crowd as he was taken from the ring in the dressing room.
The fear of Carpentier was entirely overcome. Carpentier was the favorites, the men entered the ring, and the crowd was dumbfounded when they saw the pummelled all over the ring and subjected to terrific punishments on the hands of the big black

SENATORTOMWATSON
DIES IN WASHINGTON
(Special to The New York Age).
Washington, D. C.—Another notorious figure in southern political life passed out with the death of United States Senator Thomas E. Watson of Georgia, who died from an attack of asthma care. Tuesday morning, September 26, death coming so suddenly that his wife and other relatives were unable to reach this bedside.
Senator Watson had intended going South on Wednesday to spend the Congressional recess at his home in Thomason, Ga., thirty-seven miles from Augusta. The train he had intended traveling on bore his dead body.
Senator Watson had a sensational career. He was one of the prominent figures in the Populist Party, and was candidate of that party in 1904 for President of the United States. He had previously renounced the Democratic Party and in his attempt to build up a Third Party made a strong and seemingly sincere bid for alliance with southern Negroes. When the Third Party movement failed he became intensely anti-Negro and was one with the late Ben Tillman in using the Negro question to elevate himself to office.

Opportune Time For Racial Business Growth In Harlem
Whites Grasp Opportunities Race Neglects--"Negroes Are Asleep," Says White Friend
RaceSpends$75,000Daily
Racial Enterprises Should Receive Larger Support And Negroes Should Demand Better Employment in Businesses They Support
"How long will it be before the Negroes of Harlem awaken to the opportunities that are around them?" asked a white friend of the editor of The New York Act, the other evening as they strolled up and down Lenox and Seventh avenues viewing the many business places owned and run by whites and the comparatively few owned and controlled by Negroes. Continuing, the speaker said, "The principal requisite for a retail business is people concentrating into a small area, and you have an opportunity here, with 150,000 of your people crowded into a comparatively small area, such as is afforded no other group of Negroes anywhere in the world."
an outsider. Examples of this fact may be seen in the manner in which the Jews have come into control of the clothing business, the theatre and motion picture businesses. This control was effected by one Jew making a success as a clothing manufacturer and then setting relatives up in the same business. It is this cooperation among Negroes that must give them power if they are to obtain it in business.
Negroes in Harlem have a nucleus around which to build. They can begin to strengthen the race in business by giving more of their support to those businesses we already have; they can buy their shoes from Miller or give him the opportunity to purchase the kind of shoes that if he hasn't got them.
The speaker was right, for the Negroes who live in Harlem spend approximately $75,000 per day, yet Negro business men receive about one per cent of this amount. The only businesses in the community in which the Negro dominates are the barber business and the pool and saliard parlors. These facts should be changed and instead of Negro merchants receiving one per cent of the money spent for necessities by other Negroes of the section, they should receive at least half of it, and the employees of the local businesses should in most cases be colored.
One of the jobs, it seems, is for some organization to make an effort to secure employment for capable colored men and women in the chain grocery stores in the neighborhood, the chain cigar stores and other big white establishments that make their money from colored patrons. At present colored business and colored business men have no standing with the white trade and commerce associations of Harlem. Many of the white business men boast of the fact that Negroes will support their businesses whether they are discriminated against or not, and although some of the dry goods merchants on Seventh and Eighth avenues receive the bulk of their business from colored customers, they often tell advertising solicitors from the colored papers that they are not interested in colored trade and want no more of it than they now have.
The theory that business in New York must not be built up on racial lines, but that capable Negroes must be employed in all lines of industry without discrimination because they are Americanalians, is ideal as a theory, but has not worked well in practice. Therefore always been and properly always will be a tendency for people to first help those who are closely related to them, and if there is enough good ground it in
an outsider. Examples of this fact may be seen in the manner in which the Jews have come into control of the clothing business, the theatre and motion picture businesses. This control was effected by one few making a success as a clothing manufacturer and then setting relatives up in the same business. It is this cooperation among Negroes that must give them power if they are to obtain it in business.
Negroes in Harlem have a nucleus around which to build. They can begin to strengthen the race in business by giving more of their support to those businesses we already have; they can buy their shoes from Miller or give him the opportunity to purchase the kind of shoes they wear if he hasn't got them; they can give support in a larger measure to the colored butcher shops and grocery stores; they can buy their furniture from Anderson, and support the colored restaurants, drug stores, fur shops, millinery stores and other racial enterprises in a larger measure than they have in the past.
Sometimes one colored establishment overcharges a customer on a sale or the sale proves unsatisfactory in some way. This usually causes the purchaser to go around knocking all colored business. In taking this attitude, we unconsciously fall into the same error that we criticise the white race for, namely, that of condemning the whole race for the faults of individuals. Many Negroes are prone to make excuses for not patronizing their own industries, but most of these excuses are absolutely absurd. The following is an illustration of the absurdity of such excuses:
A prominent social worker living above 135th street was asked to buy her shoes at the Harlem Shoe Store, but she made the excuse that the store was too far down Seventh avenue and was not convenient for her use. Yet she walked past this store and bought the same quality shoe on 125th street.
If we are to concentrate on building up the business establishments we already have, the proprietors would soon be able to employ a thousand or more young men and women of the race, who could gain experience to build larger businesses.
Whether the Negro continues to make progress in this country or not will be in a large measure depend upon the positions of employment that there of us now living upon us for our prosperity.
And here in New York we have the opportunity to not only open up more work for the present generation but to build up substantial business for the coming generations.

The pre-prohibition era question, "Will you have a drink?" is heard now more often than in the days of old, and an affirmative answer is just as easy to be met with fulfillment. And this applies not only in the home which has a well-stocked cellar, as would naturally be presumed, but to any casual meeting on any Harlem street.

Nor is there any need of password, mysterious sign or peculiar grip. The only dewdratum is the wherewithal to pay for it. And it doesn't require a king's ransom, either. For twenty cents, you can get a shot of alleged corn or gin that is warranted to rival the kick of a Georgia Mule. Forty cents will get you a four ounce vial, and 75 cents (six bits) is all that you need to become possessor of a half pint flask.
If you want "red licker," it can be had with equal facility, but the tariff is raised.

FRELINGHUYSEN WINS OVER RECORD IN N.J.
In the Republican primaries held in New Jersey on Tuesday, September 26, United States Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen was renominated over George L. Record, a lawyer of Jersey City, by a majority of more than 60% voters.
Senator Frelinghuysen carried every county in the state save Mercer, where incomplete returns on Wednesday morning gave Record a slight lead. The Senator was leading even in Hudson. Record's home county. This campaign was one of the warmest ever had in New Jersey. Senator Frelinghuysen was cuffspoken in favor of upholding the Volstead dry law, while his opponent was non-committal. State Senator Wm. M. Runyon was nominated for governor. The Democrats have nominated for governor Judge George S. Silzer, while Senator Frelinghuysen will be opposed by Governor Edward I. Edwards, avowed champion of the anti-prohibition forces.
Addition developments in the matter of an investigation by District Attorney Joab H. Banton into circumstances surrounding the heating to deaths of a young colored man, Herbert Dent, by detectives or policemen in the 38th Precinct police station on the night of June 27, do not promise any immediate fruition, judging from a letter sent Attorney Hoffman of 233 Broadway.

TWO MEN STABBED IN LENOX AVENUE FIGHT
Marion, Thompson, forty-two, of 100 West 134th street, is in the Harlem Hospital suffering from stab wounds in the face and a dislocated shoulder as a result of an altercation with James Whitaker, twenty, of 475 Lenox avenue, on Saturday night, September 23. Whitaker was also slightly stabbed and is now being held under $1,000 bail for trial in the Heights Courts on Thursday. Both men were arrested by Police Reserve Officer Edward Givens, at 475 Lenox avenue. The fight attracted a large crowd.
speak-easies conducted in homes, many of which are fitted up with splendidly functioning stills, of capacities from five to fifty gallons at a run, probably move in some instances, the product from which is dispensed to the distiller's personal friends and acquaintances at whatever scale of charges he sees fit to fix. But it is usually on the high of "air bits" to the half point.
There is some danger attached to imbibing these various potions. Not all of the amateur distillers are sufficiently expert to eliminate all of the poisonous fusel oil, even when the purest of ingredients are used. Then there are many cases where economy or ignorance causes the use of materials that are below the standard of safety. In other cases, perhaps not so many, wood alcohol, a deadly poison, is used, instead of the comparatively safer grain, alcohol. That this is not a remote danger was shown when about a dozen persons, men and women, died from drinking a wood alcohol confection, the death occurring a few days ago, the drinks being obtained in Brooklyn.
One Drink. One Knockout.
But there was an incident of like nature in Harlem a day or so ago. One of the city's most prominent ministers is authority for the story. A woman, active in church and social activities, had been in the habit of stopping in an Eighth avenue grocery store and securing a "bracer" on the quiet. The customary stop was made on this occasion, the drink secured, for which she paid 50 cents, and she left the place. Her plans necessitated boarding a street car, which she did.
But that was the last thing she knew for a long time. When she regained consciousness it was in the psychopathic ward of one of the local hospitals. This incident is duplicated in immurable instances.
On Lenox avenue, from 131st to 140th streets, the most cursory investigation reveals seventeen places, including drug stores, cigar stores, delicatessens and malt parlors, where a drink may be had, and this does not include the cafes which were formerly hars, and of which there are three or four in the same area. The average for the nine blocks would be two drinking places to each block, if the cafes are included.
Easy To Locate a Drink.
It is easy to make a catalogue of these places. No credentials are needed, nor is it necessary that one be introduced. Drug stores at 131st street and Lenox avenue, at 434 and 448 Lenox avenue are alleged to supply bottle needs. Two cigar stores, one near 132nd street and the other near 136th street, are alleged to be headquarters where liquid refreshments can be had, either in the bottle or by the drink. But the favorite camouflage appears to be the delicatessen store. There are at least eight "hooch" emporiums in the area mentioned which are being conducted as delicatessen stores or limeh rooms. Incidentally, there are some malt and hop stores, located at 450, 507 and 575 Lenox avenue, which are alleged to be also oases for the dirstry.
Dolicatesen "Hooch" Trust
Practically every block has its delicatessen store, displaying a more or less meagre supply of food in its windows and show cases, but which on investigation, proves to carry in its more internal regions, an ample and apparently inexhaustible supply of "booch" in its various complexions. Appearances would indicate that there is one central agency controlling these places, as most of them carry signs indicating an identical alleged proprietor as "Louie." In like case the cigar stores referred to show signs on which appears such names as "Hyman."
Whatever may be its function, in case of hunger, certain it is that thirst on Lenox avenue is unnecessary. If you have anything from 20 cents to "six bix," for delicatessen with a double meaning are to be found at 456, 476, 488, 519 and 537, while other "food"emporiums with drink facilities are to be found at 523, 548 and 573. "Al & Sum" in the sign at 548, while another "food"emporium
calle to be the presiding genus at 573.
The cafe, formerly regular saloons,
above this area, are located at 131st,
132nd and 133th streets, with two at the
east corner.
On the cross streets, thirst-quenching
pachytes are to be found on 132nd,
133rd and 133th streets, with others that
are to be enumerated later.
Furniture Verous "Koech"
Perhaps the most striking instance of commercial drink emporium is to be found in a furniture store located at 108 West 135th street, two doors from Hook and Ladder, Co., No. 30, of the New York Fire Department, and just across the street from the West 135th street branch of the New York public library. It may be more than a coincidence, but it has not been definitely fixed that the sign "S. Hyman," over the door at 108 has any relation to the signs bearing the name "Hyman" over the cigar-store place on Lenox avenue.
It is alleged by would-be furniture buyers that their wants are entirely neglected, by the supposedly furniture salesman in the "S. Hyman Furniture Co" store at 108, as that person's time is altogether taken up in attending needs of chirty pilgrims who have found that furniture "evidently has a meaning that supplies "liquid" as well as "solid" comfort, even if it is precarious and dangerous.
One thing is plainly apparent. For many months the furniture store at this place presented no particular sign of prosperity. But recently it has taken on a new air, and is peaking and preening itself in a manner that seems to say to its neighbors in the fire company house and in Glenn's restaurant that it will come upon prosperous days and means to let the world know it.
Name of Collar Indicates Drink
Seventh avenue is not, perhaps, as fertile in developing "booch" plants as Lexon, but it is reported to be fairly well supplied. Some amusing subterfuges are resorted to, presumably because Seventh avenue is more of a residential street than its next neighbor, and therefore not so bold and wanton in its actions. A gens' furnishing store, in the neighborhood of 133th street is alleged to be selling certain brands of liquid refinement to the thirsty, the customer asking for certain brands of a well-known make of collar as a guide to the kind of drink desired. A drug store in the same neighborhood is more open in its transactions, its standing as an author land handler of alcohol giving it more latitude.
Another curious and interesting example of the schemes developed in the second brain of the bootlegger is to be found in a shoe store operating on Leno xavenue. It is alleged that in this shop the customer who is in the know can ask for a pair of $10 shoes and he will receive from the polite shoe clerk a box, the contents of which will be a perfect fit, without the bother of a tryon. Instead of shoes, however, there quest is for a pair of $5 shoes, the conwill be a quart of whiskey. If the refents will measure a pint, instead of a quart
POLICE AND BOOTLEGERS.
Much speculation is rife as to the seeming freedom of action enjoyed by these bootlegging places. Compliance, and possibly complicity, of the police is more than hinted at. It is definitely alleged that some of the police are in active cooperation with the people who are violating the prohibition law, and that this acquires for the openness with which they are doing business. One report has it that uniformed and plain clothes officers are frequently used to "stall" federal revenue agents; a policeman standing in front of a bootlegging place would indicate that that place was under surveillance by constituted authorities and other agencies would not be apt to interfere.
Even more sinister charges are alleged against members of the police force. Any casual miserber, who is familiar with location of clandestine drinking places, can note the frequency with which uniformed and plain clothes officers are seen in close, confidential conference with men operating these stores, the conferences being right out in the open, either in the doorways entering into the stores, or inside the store itself.
And then there have been several stories to the effect that some of the policemen actually engage in selling the stuff themselves. A tale is told of an incident in which an officer went into one of the places in which "hooops" is sold and possessed himself of a half-pint of liquor—and that without paying for it. Passing out into the street, in a few minutes this officer was called into an adjacent hallway by one of the hangerson, who had found a friend willing to buy, and the half-pint was transferred by the officer to the buyer for just one-half of the regular price. As it is alleged that the officer repeated the transaction a number of times, at 50 cents each time, it is probable he accumulated a considerable addition to the starvation (?) salary received from Father Knickerbocker.
Supplying a Need.
Another incident is, told of, happening the wee, small hours, when a party seeking to assuage his thirst found that *Louis* had sold out and there would be nothing doing for several hours. After two or three fruitless trips to *Louis*'s store, in the hope that some gravy bottle might have been found, the thirsty pilgrim was leaving for good, with dry throat and despairing heart, when it was hailed by "one of the finest," who informed him that *Louis*'s had nothing, but that for $2.50 he, the cop, could supply the thirsty man's needs. A little dubious at first, fearing a trap the pilgrim finally was convinced of the discreetty of the offer, passed over the money and immediately, from an insidious, a half-pint flask filled with hope* was produced and passed over the officer to the buyer.
Whether these tales are true or not, certain it is that the places enumerated have are wide open, day and night, day on overwhelming business in the way from time to time of all sorts and politics to the thousands who are willing to pay the prices asked many of those have never drank before, but who aim to be convincing their right to conform of individual action without regard to restraint or mass legislation. So far as Harlem is concerned it is, Nero who offers from the ill-used use of this thought. He is a constant philosopher and financier, all the bootleaders are the carkers and the bootleaders.

Two colored men, W. P. Hubbard and his son, Frederick, are among the most prominent and influential citizens aiding in Toronto, Canada, according to a letter received by editor of The Age from Henry A. Wallace of New York, who has been spending the Summer at Chester, Pa., and who visited Toronto for four weeks.
The elder Hubbard served as an Alderman in the Canadian city, and was also Comptroller. The younger man is at present assistant superintendent of the Toronto Transportation Company, and through this influence a number of colored men are employed as conductors on the city street cars. Both men are highly respected in the community and whenever questions affecting transportation problems are up for consideration, the opinion of Frederick Hubbard is always sought for. The Hubbards are large property owners.
Mr. Wallace states that the prominence in civic and business circles of the two men is not due in any way to their racial identities, but to the fact that they have identified themselves with the city's interests and entered into all of its activities.
A Newshov In Toronto.
In his letter to the editor, Mr. Wallace tells interestingly of his visit to Toronto, in which city he went to school as a boy and worked as a newboy, delivering the Daily Telegraph to subscribers prior to 1870. This paper is now the Evening Telegram—and it is being conducted by a son of the man who employed, young Wallace fifty years ago. During Mr. Wallace's visit he was interviewed and photographed by representatives of the Telegram, which printed his photo and a column story concerning his former connection with the paper and his present visit to the city.

IN THE MATTER OF DENT
Dear Sir:—
Replying to yours of yesterday, in reference to the above, it seems to me that you are entirely mistaken, when you state that you have been awaiting advice from me. To begin with, in reply to my letter of the 13th inst., you stated:—
"I am having the case investigated a third time and will be able to take the matter up with you early next week."
Since then, I have been awaiting advices from you. You will recall that on the occasion of our interview, you stated that you would have Mr. Hennis investigate the facts from the angle that the situation was presented to you by me and that Mr. Hennis would get in touch with me when he was ready.
You will also recall that I requested to be informed of the evidence your Mr. Hennis secured at the time of his first investigation so as to afford me an opportunity to present such additional facts as my own independent investigation disclosed. This, I have not yet received.
So far as giving you the names of any additional witnesses at this time, as I stated to you before, these witnesses will be produced at a hearing, either in open court or before the Grand Jury. It will serve no useful purpose to have these witnesses exposed to the danger of intimidation by the police in advance of such hearing. You already are familiar with the nature of the testimony they will give.
If Mr. Hennin or yourself is ready with the results of the investigation that you stated have been undertaken by you, since our conference, I am prepared to call upon either of you at once or go over the matter with a view to taking such action in the premises as the facts warrant. Again I want to assure you that I am ready to cooperate with you in this matter and await your further advice.
very truly yours,
HERMAN HOFFMAN.

Wonderful Discovery Makes It Possible For Every Man and Women of the Race to Have a Bright, Soft, Smooth Skin
Since leaving Toronto in 1870, Mr. Wallace has made six return trips and his conglomerate on wrist and political conditions is interesting. He writes:
I spent four weeks in Toronto and feel that I have been amply repaid for the trip. Not including costs of transportation my expenses were more reasonable than had I spent my vacation in the United States. The annual exhibition which lasts two weeks is worth seeing and excels anything on our side other than the affairs at Chicago and St. Louis.
The Question of Prejudice.
Toronto has made wonderful strides and from a population of 50,000 in 1870 is now 529,000. It would not be true to say there is no prejudice there. The large influx of Americans has caused considerable prejudice though one will be told, as in most of our northern cities, that there is none. It is quite possible that there may not be quite so much in Canada but that is due to the fact that there are not quite so many Negroes there. Prejudice increases with increase of Negro population. When I hear a person say there is no prejudice at a certain place I know then there are not many colored persons at that place. I was informed that in Toronto there are about 2,000 Negroes, a surprisingly small number as I thought. The Negro vote in Toronto has no political weigth, being almost infinitesimal. Therefore colored persons will seldom be found in high places.
I have been out of touch with politics for some time. It is about time for the political pot to commence boiling, and it is also about time for the colored brother to get a little more of the political pie. If he does not get it before election his chances after will be rather slim.

Boston, Mass., The National Equal Rights League, Rev. M. A. N. Shaw, president, W. M. Trotter, secretary, has telegraphed President Harding asking that the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill be made one of the subjects of a proposed special session of Congress to be called sometime in November.
The League is circulating a petition for signatures to a memorial to be sent the President urging the calling of a special session of Congress for the enactment of the Dyer Bill, as the one way to "save the great program of progress of twelve months" labor and "wipe lynching from the Banner of the Republic."

Resisted in cold winter fairly, given only one arm behind an armored undercover dally, blinded, culled and beaten by the police, and held hostagehead from August 24 to 31, was the experience which Henry Byrne of 163 Eurex Street, New Bedford, Mass., a veteran of the recent World War, says he underwent at Bayonne, N. J.
Mr. had been arrested, on August 31 while on a ferry, held on purpose from Hoboken to New York, where he insured boarding a coastwise steamer for his home at New Bedford, the arrest being made by two detectives who accused him of having committed a robbery at the rectory of St. Henry Catholic Church, Bayonne, on August 12.
Byrnes, who is chief cook at his home, served with the 317 Infantry, Road Division, A. E. F. He was born in New Bedford, and declares that prior to his arrest he had never been in Bayonne. When arrested he was first taken to the Jersey City jail, notwithstanding his protestations of innocence and request to be allowed to establish an alibi. Warren Sullivan was a witness to the first ill-treatment to which Byrnes was subjected, according to the latter's story, as the detective used a black jack on him in the Jersey City jail the next day, Byrnes charges that he was given the "third degree" in an effort to force a confession, notwithstanding that the priest from St. Henry Church, and the maid from the rectory both had declared positively that, Byrnes was not the man who had robbed the rectory.
Byrnes was not permitted to consult a lawyer, he aaves, and he says that one bologna sausage sandwich a day was all the food he was given. Each day he was taken before Judge Gains of the City Court and remanded back to jail without bail. When discharged, on August 31, Byrnes charges that Judge Gains said to him: "Byrnes, we have no evidence to convict you, but I believe you are the man. I am going to let you go and you get out of this city and state at once." According to his story, after being discharged Byrnes called on the priest, who had him served with food and offered him money to pay transportation charges to New Bedford. Byrnes says he are the food, but that he had money of his own and would not accept the proffered funds. The young man swore he had never been in Bayonne before and had never before been arrested.
He is back at home in New Bedford, but has consulted officers of the N. A. A. C. P., and others, with a view to enlisting aid in securing legal redress for the suffering, mental and physical, which he underwent in the Bayonne jail at hands of Bayonne officials.

SAVINGS BANK IS NOW

CHAS. YOUNG POST WINS
HONORS AT SYRACUSE
At the State Convention of the
American Legion, held at Syracuse, N.
Y., September 21, to 23, the Col.
Charles. Young Post, No. 398, was well
represented by its commander, Thomas
H. Walters, being one of the delegates
from the New York County Con-
vention. Other members present were Wi-
Service Bell, vice-commander, and Sol
Butler and Dr. Willis N. Cummings,
who took part in the athletic meet.
Sol Butler won the broad jump and took third in the 100-yard dash, while Cummings contested in the one-mile run. Through their efforts, the Post was placed third in points scored. Butler will represent New York State at the National Convention at New Orleans in October, and Commander Walters has been named as one of the state delegates.
The resolution adopted by both New York and Kings County Conventions, asking for fair treatment of colored veterans in the American Legion, to be submitted to the National Convention, was unanimously adopted by the State Convention, and similar resolutions have been adopted by several other states. It is predicted that the New Orleans session will take an advanced stand on the question of opening the door to the colored war veteran.

Durham, N. C.—What constitutes the greatest insurance development in the race's history was recently brought to a successful consumption when the Banktrs Fire Insurance Co., of Durham took over in a merger the entire business of the Great Southern Fire Insurance Co., of Atlanta, representing assets of about $150,000 and outstanding insurance totalling more than $1,000,000. Including both companies, total assets amount to $325,000, with more than $7,500,000 in live policy. The advisability of the merger was brought to attention of the insurance officials by John E. Nail of the real estate firm of Nail & Parker, New York City, who in 1921 made a trip South and held a conference with L. E. Williams, president of the Wage Earners' Bank, Savannah, Ga., and other directors and officers of the Great Southern making up the controlling interest of that body.
Active details were handled by Mr. Nail and Mr. Williams, associated with W. Gomerz secretary-manager of the Bankers' Fire Insurance Co., who arranged a conference between representatives of the two companies, which conference was held in Georgia during August past. At this time an agreement was arrived at as to terms of the merger.
The entire outstanding business of the Great Southern has been reinsured by the North Carolina company. With

"MOOCH" AND THE CHURCHES.
The ravages of "hooch," the comprehensive term used to embrace various poisonous compounds vended in the name of liquor, have become to harmful morally as well as physically, as to make it needful to summon all the forces for good in fighting this evil. The widespread extent of the bootleggers industry has been set forth with many details in the news columns of The Agr. The supply of intoxicating liquor, formerly confined to the saloons and family liquor stores, was a comparatively harmless traffic in a legitimate product, beside the illicit flood of noxious beverages sold to all comers in all sorts of places, with.
our regulation or legal restraint.
The situation in Harlem has become such a flagrant violation of law and deficiency as to threaten the health and morals of the community. It is useless to say that no one is compelled to buy the stuff sold as "hooch" and offered on every side. Human nature is weak and perverse and the necessity for legal restraint is born of the need to save the heedless and erring from action harmful to themselves as well as others. A prohibition law that is not enforced is worse than no prohibition law at all.
In view of the failure of the authorities to enforce the law, it becomes the duty of the churches to use their influence to bring about such enforcement. The House of Deputies of the Episcopal Church, in convention at Portland, Oregon, recognized this fact by adopting a resolution deploring "the growing tendency of the people to disregard the laws, especially the prohibition law." It was urged that the church take a firm stand for observance of the law. Although the church was not put on record as favoring prohibition itself, the plea was made on the ground that every citizen should abide by existing laws as a duty of good citizenship.
The churches to Holism of all determinations should exert their united efforts in the same way to secure the observance of the prohibition law as the duty of good citizens and also to protect the community from the twin evil of physical poisoning and extortion for vicious indulgence. Every pastor and every church member should insist that the law be enforced, so long as it remains a law, whether he is in favor of prohibition or not.
As to the wisdom of amending the Volstead act and the Mullen-Gage law, which were intended to regulate and enforce prohibition in New York State, there are several opinions. The modifying of these laws so as to permit the use of beer and wines would certainly be an improvement on present conditions. Prohibition is now enforced as a force which demoralizes the community and hurries the bootleggers' industry.
GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION
A great deal of dust has been raised by the forces of unionized labor over the cry of "Government by injunction" in the case carried into a Federal court in Chicago by Attorney General Dougherty, to restrain the railroad strikers and their sympathizers from the commission of lawless acts. These labor leaders have gone on far as to call for the impachment of the Attorney General by Congress, and there have been found certain partisan members of that body ready to follow the bidding of the unionists.
For some reason or other the Attorney General has been the objective of the bitterest attacks upon President Harding's cabinet. The motives behind these attacks have been shown by the sources from which they have emanated and the character of the parties behind them. Previous assaults have been largely coloured by partisan politics and the entities engineering by the government prosecution of war profiteers and their former friend: in political office.
The present attack of the Labor leader is due to the attempt of the government to curb the excesses into which union labor has been led by reckless leadership. So dominating have these leaders become in their desire to control all workers and to whip them into the harness of unionism, that they would blow the right to work to all outside the union. More than this, they are as conspirations of the right of the public service as they are of any interference with their decrees. The only power that can curb their rule is the government self.
in behalf of the public so large as well as for the man who were willing to serve the public, he was performing his duty as a public officer. Whether the order he asked for was too swearing in in the terms, in facilitating interference by the strikers, is a matter for the courts to determine, but the chief law officer of the United States was simply doing his plain duty when he invoked the aid of the judicial power against the tyranny of the unions.
Labor unions have an important and useful part to play in the betterment of the condition of the wage earners, but their usefulness has been lessened by the unwise policies of the leaders and the violent methods they have encouraged among their members. As a means of obtaining better terms through collective bargaining they still have a good purpose to serve. But they must not encourage the idea that they are above the law or that they can supplant the legal processes of the law.
Government by injunction may not be a popular method of enforcing the law, but if it is the only legal way of coping with the excesses of the strikers and their total disregard of the law and the public, why "government by injunction" is far better than no government at all. The Attorney General should be commanded for his efforts to excive law and order out of chaotic violence and confusion. On a fair showing of the facts in the case the effort at impeachment should fall to the ground of its own weight.
COTTON FAMINE PREDICTED
An English publication, the Saturday
Review, not long ago came to the conlusion that a famine in cotton is not only impending but is inevitable. This ominous prediction was based upon the reports of American experts, who placed the Future crops in this country at an average of 6,000,000 bales per annum, which would only suffice for domestic industries. With no margin for export England would be compelled to look elsewhere for supply.
The cotton industry in the United States is dependent almost wholly upon Negro labor for its supply of raw material. The cotton crops in the Southern States are planted, cultivated and picked by the black workers of that section. Any movement which tends to drive the Negroes from a certain section of cotton producing country is reflected in the falling off of the crops raised in that locality.
As a writer who has studied the subject carefully says, cotton is an essential element in the nation's industries and in American homes. Curtail the production of cotton and you automatically bring on a lack of raw material in the great New England and other textile industries. This shortage of material brings about a "shut down" of the mills or a "lay-off" of the workers. This enforced non-employment throws a lot of idle men and women on the streets to look for a living. Any movement that tends to drive off or scatter the black field workers in the South who produce the cotton, is reflected in the throwing out of employment of the white factory workers of the North, who depend upon the supply of cotton as their raw material.
If this lack of raw material should continue for any length of time, its results would be felt further in the failure of the mill corporations to pay the interest on their bonds and the dividends on their stocks, which are derived from the fashioning and marketing of the raw material raised by the black workers of the South.
A cotton famine, such as is predicted by this English writer, would be fraught with serious results to the textile industries of the country, especially those located in the North. It should therefore be a matter of concern to the whole country to bring about such conditions as will keep the black field labor of the South contented and industrious. This can only be done by ensuring the workers a fair return for their labor, sanitary housing conditions, better school facilities, freedom from molestation by mobs and justice in the courts. The lack of any of these conditions will eventually drive away the workers and help to bring about the cotton famine which the English writer deems inevitable.
In an editorial treating of "Common Courtesy," the Atlanta Independent called attention to a most uncalled for and obnoxious breach of this duty in the treatment which colored patrons receive from white clerks. It said:
In numbers of white business places when a colored person enters to buy goods or wares a clerk will say, "What is it, Sambo," or "Bill," or "Joshua," or "Ucle," or any other name that might come to his mind. If the customer is a woman, it is "What is it, Sally," or "Julie," or "Auntie" or anything else. This is a decided act of discourtesy and ought to be stopped. It is just as easy, and far more sensible to refer to a customer as a customer than to use any other term. There would be no impropriety in saying, "What is it, customer."
Another phase of such insults is a refusal on the part of clerks and bookkeepers to address a colored person as "Mister" or "Mistress," regardless of how high that person may stand in mental, moral or financial development. A thing mysterious is that they prefer to address one as "uncle" or "aunt" so and so. We have never been able to understand why some white folks would rather claim kin with us than proffer a common title of respect.
The "Independent" suggests that such insulting practices can only be stopped by the person thus addressed showing his offence by promptly leaving the place. This is another group why the race should prompt and abrogate the offence.
SEGREGATION IN PUBLIC LIBRARIES
We have before us the "Library Journal" for August, 1932, in which is given an account of the annual conference of the American Library Association held recently in Detroit. A part of the published proceedings includes a report of a round table meeting on "Work with Negroes." This round table report is of interest to colored people everywhere and especially to colored New Yorkers, as it was predeided over by Miss Ernestine Rose, the Librarian of the One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Street Branch in this city, the branch which, because it is located in the heart of New York's largest Negro population, is very largely patronized by colored people.
According to the report of this round table meeting, this question of "Work with Negroes" was principally discussed by librarians from Southern cities where branch libraries for the use of colored people have been established. George T. Settle of the Louisville, Ky., public library opened the discussion by telling about the work done in the colored branch of that city. Lloyd W. Josselyn of Birmingham, Ala., followed with a paper on the support and control of Negro libraries. Mr. Josselyn opened up his paper, with the statement that it is not fair to the Negro to judge him by the standards of the white race, etc., etc.
Mr. Josselyn, of course, laid down his first proposition in order to say that the sort of knowledge and the sort of information suitable for the white man's head was entirely unsuitable for the Negro.
The Librarians from other Southern cities reported. The remarks of some of these librarians were, from a Southern point of view, quite liberal; but they all felt that they were dealing with a problem, a problem which was not only perplexing but embarrassing. We can easily understand how the position into which these librarians are put would embarrass them. Here are these custodians of the depositories of knowledge, the custodians of that which should be as free to all who seek it as is the air, yet compelled by narrow, artificial limitations to deny this knowledge altogether or to allow access to it only under prescribed conditions to a large proportion of the seakers.
This problem of separate libraries is a problem of the South's own making and one in which it does not deserve any special sympathy. But why should these librarians, from Southern cities where separate libraries for colored people are deemed necessary wish to impose their so-called problem on the North? And yet it seems that with the persistence that always goes with Southern prejudice, they are striving to do so, and in a degree they are succeeding.
Miss Ernestine Rose, the chairman of the round table, according to the report, spoke of the North coming rapidly to a problem similar to that in the South. She is reported as saying: "In New York, the 135th Street Branch is the only one at present having colored assistants, although other branches are in large, growing Negro centers. It is a question whether it should be made a colored branch or whether colored assistants should be put in other branches. Segregation will be a large problem for the North to solve, although it is not yet realized in most quarters. Legally, colored and white are on the same ground, but in many cases there is not a real feeling of equality in the library."
We would give no credence at all to these statements attributed to Miss Rose if they did not appear in the "Library Journal" in a report over the name of Miss Rose as chairman. Under any other conditions we would not credit them.
Miss Rose is laboring under a mistake if she thinks that New York or the North is approaching any such problem, in libraries at least, as there is in the South. Miss Rose is also laboring under a mistake if she has any feeling that she is "working among Negroes." She is the librarian of one of the branches of the Public Library of New York City, a branch in a part of the city where there are large numbers of colored citizens; but this branch is in no sense a colored branch. It is a public library largely patronized by colored citizens who got into it as citizens and not as special beneficiaries.
If Miss Rose has such ideas about segregation in public libraries, as is intimated in this report over her name, she does not belong in the One Hundred and Thirty-fifth Street library of New York. There are no conditions in the library situation in New York City which require or admit of any such ideas.
In contradistinction to the expressions attributed to Miss Rose were those made by Miss Rice of Chicago. Miss Rice felt that the Chicago-Public Library had no problem to discuss. No separate branches are considered and work does not differ from that with foreigners.
The same sentiments were expressed by William F. Yulst of Rochester, N. Y.
A public library is the last place where race segregation should show itself. In fact, such a policy is contradictory to all that a public library stands for. We do not believe that New York City would ever seriously consider separate libraries on race lines, but such a propaganda should not be allowed to gain any headway. We hope, too, that a great organization like the American Library Association will not tolerate the organization of any distinct and permanent Negro department in its body.
THOSE COLORED FRENCHMEN
Several months ago Rene Maran, a colored Frenchman, startled the world with a distinguished achievement. Cables, telegraph wires, and the wireless telegraph flashed the news of what he had accomplished to every corner of civilization. And now comes another colored Frenchman, Silu, who in an entirely different field, has duplicated the achievement of Maran, and the front page of every Metropolitan newspaper in this and other countries carried the account of what he had done.
Siki's achievement is that of defeating Georges Carpentier, the pugilistic idol of France, the champion of all Europe, and the light heavyweight champion of the world. The defeat of Carpentier was the most unquestioned defeat ever administered to a prize-fighting champion in the modern history of pugilism. After the fight, the champion, battered and broken, was compelled to take to his bed, while the victor was almost unscratched. But Siki showed himself not only a superior fighter to the white Frenchman; he also showed himself a better sportsman. For example, in one of the rounds when he had knocked Carpentier over against the ropes, he stopped to pick him up, and in doing this, he received a vicious blow on the jaw from his opponent. All through the fight Carpentier, after he realized that he was up against his superior, when he realized that his pugilistic crown was being snatched from his brow, resorted to fouling and other unfair tactics to save himself.
Perhaps the most significant phase of this contest was the stiffness and brawniness of the Frenchman.
sporters who witnessed the fight. The sword, when it saw the tactics which Carpentier was using against Siki, expressed its disapproval by jeers and boasts at the man who only a few hours before had been the pugilistic idol of all France.
When Carpentier in the sixth round was finally knocked out and carried from the ring, the judges, nevertheless, awarded him the decision, on the alleged ground that Siki had tripped him as he was falling. The crowd raised such an uproar at this obviously unjust decision that the judges were compelled to reverse themselves. The uproar lasted for more than an hour and finally the judges brought in the decision declaring Siki the winner and the pugilistic champion of Europe.
This latter decision of the judges has been sustained by the moving pictures of the fight which show that Siki did not trip Carpentier. Furthermore, all of the sporting authorities of France agree that it would not have necessary for him to have done so; that Carpentier had been knocked out for good and all before the seeming trip took place.
We shall now hear from a number of writers in the United States who will seek to lessen Siki's triumph. Men like Brisbane on the Hearst papers will write articles to show that what Siki did would have been done better by a gorilla. Such a statement is perhaps true, but it is irrelevant. Even if we grant that prize-fighting is a gorilla game, the white man plays the game and not only plays it but claims superiority at it. So it he is beaten at a game which he plays and in which he claims, to be the superior of all others, the man who beats him deserves whatever credit goes with the victory.
We can remember the sort of stuff that was written when Jack Johnson was to fight Jim Jeffries. There were writers who claimed that Johnson would be whipped when Jeffries looked at him in the eye, that he would quail before the gaze of the white man; that Jeffries had behind him the background of Runnymede and Agincourt, while Johnson had nothing but the jungle.
It has long been a cherished delusion, of the Anglo-Saxon peoples especially, that the white man is superior to all other races not only in intellectual capacity, and ability but in physical stamina and courage. So when the white man on such a claim goes into a physical contest with the black man and loses, it is the worst kind of sportsmanship to say that after all the game is only a gorilla game.
How curiously these two black Frenchmen—they are both pure-blooded Negroes, Maran a West Indian and Siki a native African—within such a brief interval have challenged the white man's claim on both points. If we concede that Siki's achievement is one in which he himself could be bested by a gorilla, what about Maran's? Maran entered an intellectual and artistic contest with the best white man of France and carried off the highest award that France gives in that field.
But in our opinion the triumph of both these colored Frenchmen will have far-reaching effects. Maran has shown the whole world what a Negro brain is capable of and Siki has shown the whole world that in physical strength, in courage and in stamina and ability to sustain grueling punishment, the Negro is no whit inferior to the white man. And in our mind it is just as necessary to have the white man convinced of the latter as it is of the former. And now just a word about Frenchmen. We do not believe that in any other country in the world two black men would have been given just the same sort of opportunity to prove their diverse abilities as was given to Maran and Siki by the French people; and even if in any other country they had been given the same opportunity, the outcome of their efforts would not have been received and hailed in the same way.
The French are still, so far as race prejudice is concerned, the most fair-minded white nation on earth, and it may be after all, that it will be black Frenchmen in Africa and in the West Indies who will have, through their mother country, the greatest chance to convince the world of the capabilities of black men in all fields of endeavor.
PRESIDENTIAL BACKBONE.
In his veto of the Soldiers Bonus bill last week President Harding showed in no uncertain terms that he is passsed the provision providing the funds for the expenditure and the complete defeat of most intense party pressure, when he believes that he is right. It was expect-
PRESIDENTIAL BACKBONE.
ed that the President would take the measure, but in the face of the overwhelming state of his party and the earnest pleas of his teacher associates in the Senate, it would not have surprised many of his supporters if he had sided to the pressure put upon him. But the amiability that has so far characterized Mr. Harding's relations to the Party was in this case subordinated to the greater interests of the country.
In his message to the Congress the President freely acknowledged that the Nation has certain very binding obligations to those of its defenders who made real sacrifices in the World War and who left the armies disabled or diseased. These obligations, he said, are being gladly and generously met, despite possible inefficiencies and injustices, with no complaint about the heavy cost. The heavy expenditures for the current fiscal year are set at $510,000,000 to cover hospitalization and care of sick and wounded, compensations and vocational training and for insurance. More than 99,000 veterans are now enrolled in some of the 445 different courses of vocational training.
The chief reason assigned for rejecting the measure were that Congress failed in the act to provide the revenues to pay the bonus and the certificate plan of payment involved a dangerous use of public credit. The fact that the bill would add at least four millions of dollars to the country's indebtedness was shown to be directly opposed to the pressing problem of diminishing its tax burdens. It would wipe out everything so far accomplished in the way of government economy and saving. The President also emphasized the fact that in the war everybody was ready to give his all with comparatively few exceptions. Citizens of every degree loaned and sacrificed precisely in the time spirit that the soldiers went to war.
A peace betrothed of this nature on the ex-service men was finally pronounced a perversion of public funds and a reversal of the policy which ensured patriotic service in the past. While regretting to stand between the ex-service men and the privately small companies promised in the latter the freedom
The fact that Congress was unable to pass this measure over the Presidential veto showed that there was a saving sense of wisdom in the party legislators, especially of the Senate side. The passage of the bonus measure was not activated by any real concern for the best interests of the ex-soldiers. It was the rankest kind of appeal to the pockets of a certain class of voters, who would realize a temporary benefit from its passage. The members who voted for it were endeavoring to make sure of so many votes to help re-elect them to Congress.
It is cause for congratulation that the country possessed a President with sufficient backbone to shoulder the responsibility for standing between the Treasury and the bonus grabbers. It is the most courageous act that has so far characterized Mr. Harding's administration. Let us hope that it indicates the possession of equal courage to grapple with the other problems that demand his decision to effect a right solution, such as the suppression of lynch law, the restoration of home rule to the Haitians, the giving of a helping hand to Liberia and the extension of educational facilities through national aid on an equitable basis.
Presidential backbone is a needed element in national reforms.
AN OKLANQMA MOVEMENT
An esteemed subscriber of The Ace, Dr. A. E. Beatty, writes to the editor from Haskell, Oklahoma, as follows:
I need not tell you that I am an old subscriber of your most excellent paper, as your books will show that you have had me for a good many years with only one blank space, and that was when I grew sick of your defence of President's Taft's administration. That is fact. I still believe that your paper is the greatest of all the Negro papers.
Now, Mr. Moore, I think I know that your paper is Republiqn in principle, but will you read carefully enveloped pamphlet and then say in your paper what you durn please about it.
The encirclement referred to was a two-page leaflet, entitled "An Address to the New Years of the State of Ohio."
Governor Club at Oklahoma City, August 27, 1922. It embodied an appeal to the Negro—Republican and Democrat—to vote for Jack Walton and the laws of citizenship, the rights of liberty and the pursuit of happiness and better facilities as promised under laws of Oklahoma. It was claimed as the sentiment of the party of Lincoln has been choked out by the "Lily" guardians of party principles and that the times demand that the Negro cipulate himself from political bondage. A state committee was formed for its primary purpose the citing of Mr. Walton as Governor, and him every candidate on his ticket stands for the largest opportunity of citizenship for the Negro, such broadest education, absolute protection before the law, equitable taxation, a proportionate distribution of the money and the inalienable right to his ballot as guaranteed by the Constitution."
THE ACE is not acquainted with the record of Mr. Walton as Major and the leaflet does not furnish it nor clearly state his party affiliations. He credit Dr. Beatty and the other crediting this address with having good reasons for pledging him their support. If Lillywhite activities in the Republican party of Oklahoma have on these Negro voters to support an outside candidate, that is their right and privilege. They are fully justified in adopting the course the most effective in resisting "Lillywhite aggressions." When political parties play fast and loose with the principles upon which they are founded, the voters must resort to the support of such individual candidates, as will conduce to the preservation of those principles.
That keen and incisive commenter on realities and shams, William Pickering, recently described a visit to "The Church of God and Saints of Christ" otherwise known as "The Holy Roller" in a mid-Western city. In his description published in the Cleveland Collegi said the saints were both white and black, male and female, old to younger folks and little children. The head of the church was a black man, he found the rites of the jungle and the cave rite in the heart of a big city of civilization." But, he said.
One thing impressed the thinking holder; there was more democracy and brotherhood in this jungle that in the "first Methodist" or the "first Presbyterian" church. Whether her mother shouted and clapped one little white girl about ten, took scrupulous and natural care of one little black baby about ten, while its mother sang and danced the "holies." The "saints" seemed to be absolutely color-blind. We left in a state of interrogation.
What is the answer to the question, which Mr. Pickens could not solve?
The Kansas City, Mo. Call contends that investment in land is essential to business security. To illustrate this point it said:
Some months ago the Call first beve-
te look about for a home and priced
a building which it would have liked
much to own. Since then though leav-
than a year has passed, that building
is valued at more than 25 per cent more.
And if it is in a Negro neighborhood.
The charge that Negroes depreciate
property seems to have found answer
an all sufficient answer if this one case
is typical.
After all there is no black dollar. All
men, black as well as white, gave up
to the land where they gather. Negro
business is little partly because it is
hands that are inexperienced, and part
because it has to keep moving. It has
not made itself permanent by buying the
land. In many a city sections are pounded
out which once had colored ownership
and occupancy. Yet in those cities we
have now in humbleness far removed
from valuable land. We have failed to
dig in.
The lesson that the Kansas City editor is seeking to enforce is one that experience has taught in many other cities. The putting of this lesson into practice will tend to put our business development on a firmer foundation.
The American Negro is said to be a great imitator of the white race. Unfortunately this accusation is more or less sure. We were forcibly reminded of when the present grand jury of Marion county, Ill. holding an investigation to find out who were responsible for the herrin massacre, presented a true bill against one Frank B. a colored deputy sheriff and nine white men. And before this investigation is finished, there may be more colored印 indicated for taking part in this blast and horrible massacre, as according to the. Associated Press the grand jury have in hand now over 500印 persons, charged with participation in the riot.
Whether or not it is true, we have more than once read in the white prose where some Negroes down South have engaged in the Southern white men wicked pastime of lynching some number of the race for an alleged instead of letting the law take its course.
So thoughtless and blind that they seem not to be able to see what they are furnishing a pretext, even they take the law in their hands to the white man to mob them at own sweet will at.
This apparent eagerness and readiness to pattern after the white man vices and foliages, reminds us of discovery which we once heard a preacher deliver upon the progress of the race.
In discoursing, at length, upon advancement the Negro had made to every avenue the white man had to the divine finally closed in a blaze of eloquence by saying: Wherever find of there goes a white man will, also, find a Negro—in heaven and in hell.
If as a race we find it proper at any time necessary to imitate other Jews as it be the excellence and
The Philadelphia Tribune recently told how a bold daylight robbery was offended at the Citizens and Southern Bank in this city of which R. R. Wright is the president. It said:
There was no one in the bank except Charles Ealy, a teller. He was about to use the telephone, when armed men, entered, pointing their weapons at him. He became so frightened that he forgot to use the pistol near a hand. He backed into the collar, that he would be able to come street through the trap door and the alarm before the robbers make their escape. However, because could open the trap door of the street in order to give alarm the bandits had raised the alarm of the paying teller's cage, seized one thousand dollars, crawled through the window, and up an alarm to a waiting automobile. They were quickly and quietly until no reported that anything was wrong.
It appears to be the first robbery of this kind to take place in a Negro housing institution. It was announced that depositors would not suffer, as many had secured adequate insurance against every possible kind of loss. They are to be congratulated on their fireight.
Returning to the attempt to turn the Republican organization in Oklahoma over to the "Lilywhites," the Birmingham Reporter said:
A meeting of the Republican party held as a state Republican, convention was held in Birmingham, Thursday, September 11. It was what newspapers said a white Republican, meeting," what the ex-chairman, Pope Long.
Siskiyou County, openly boasted of in his incoming address as a meeting for Iowa Republicans and a place for Iowa Republicans and white ladies to free from attend, and in praising himself for such a wonderful meeting he thanked God that there was not a bigger delegate or alternate seated in the convention. Mr. Long was decisively directed on all points by the Street and barricade aggregation.
It was hardly a Republican convention in reading and studying the movement it appears now to have been a mass meeting called under what had been called as a regular organization in order from one that would as least make their effort at Republican principles. No Republican, let him be white or from whatever section, can happy under the Pope Long spirit endorsement of the convention held September 7. The Negro of the state and all over this country is going to party affiliation; he is having it somewhere and he is going to have it South. If men choose to tear up party and destroy its use in Ala-adding for office and appointment should be no barrier or charge against the colored population; and the party through its national recognize, respect, tolerate an organization of blacks in the principles of the party to race, color, section condition.
Five men made to hold a state wide meeting in Negro voters to preserve the Republicanism in a real battle where all races and corporations are admitted.
The man Journal recently urged the men of that place to let the people know what is being done by the state element. It said:
It seems an unbelievable claim that there are people in the city who are part of the activities of the state. It seems almost as unbelievable that there are some know of the existence of the Savings Bank, the Wage Bank, the Dunbar Theatre, the Bank, the Fidelity Bank nor the Theater. Then there are those in the board of them they do not own the corporations are owned by Negro men solely.

GEORGIA MOB TO PUNISH KUJ
KLUXIAM.
(From New York World).
When five white men, admitted leaders of the Ku Klux Klan, can be indicted in Liberty County, Ga., for participation in the lynching of two Negroes convicted of assault on a white woman, there is ground for believing that times have changed or are changing in the South.
According to the Sheriff of the county, there is little local sentiment in favor of punishing members of the mob which took the law into its hands, yet not only the five already indicted but others of equal prominence are likely to be brought to trial. Both the Grand Jury and the county officials evidently realize more readily than the bulk of the populace the opprobrium that goes with an unpunished lynching. To this end the unwavering opinion of the North and of the better elements in the South, but more particularly of late the dramatic exposure of the Ku Klux Klan, are without doubt the moving factors.
A Southern community that might tolerate an old-fashioned lynching will hesitate to condone violence by an organization formed to usurp the functions of the law which has fallen so low in public estimation, as the Klan.
"POR THE GOOD OF THE COMMUNITY."
(From Birmingham Age-Herald). "While we rejoice over our wage advances and the added money in circulation which that means, it is a good time to lend a thought to the black man of this district. Vain efforts have been made to suppress the labor agent luring the black man away. The black man will go long as he finds real or imaginary cause to.
"The remedy for the emigration of the black man rests on the shoulders of the southern white man. He can keep him or let him wander away, then whistle for the working power which he represents and the safe Americanism which is in every Negro breast. The Negro knows no other country and cares less. America is his all. He belongs in the South. He will remain here if certain things are done for him. If not he will go away in increasing numbers. "The Negro of today prefers the separation of the races from a social standpoint. They have their own picture shows, their own churches, their own lodge rooms, their own physicians and dentists. They know what justice is and, if they are not accorded it in the South, they will seek it elsewhere. "The business men of the South need to awaken to the treatment which the Southern Negro meets at hands of the understraints of the law. They need take practical measures to see that the black Southern soil tiller and furnace helper is not harassed by ignorant and unconscious whites.
"Preaching to a certain class of white men is of no avail. There must be an organized protective agency thrown about the Negro in his industrial life. "Yours for upbuilding. (Signed) "RICHARD A. JOHNSTON."
TWO PARISIAN HEROES
This has been a great year for the Negro in Paris. First the Goncourt academy of literature astounded the Parisian, of letters by giving the Goncourt prize for the best novel of the year to "Batouala," the work of Rene Maran, a full-blooded Negro. There was little consolation for the Caucasian race in this award. The father of Maran was a native of Martinique, the mother of Guadeloupe. To be sure, he was born at Bordeaux, France, and had gained his African experiences upon which his book was based while serving in the French colonial offices in Central Africa. But his book was an outspoken criticism of French officialdom and was in effect a plea on behalf of his dark, and subject brethren.
Now, on a different level culture but one hardly less interesting to the white race, it would seem, and for which the white race has certainly laid down the rules of competition, Siki, the Senegalese, pounds his way to triumph. That large portion of Paris which was present seems to have applauded the results with complete impartiality, turning against its hero of its own color with that cheerful fickleness which seems to be the trait of most crowds without regard to nationality.
Is there any moral for the white man or black man in America? The double achievement rather silences those extreme advocates of white supremacy who assert that the Negro belongs inevitably in a lowly walk of life. It supports those friends of the Negro who ask that he have a free chance to develop in those cases of unmistakable talent of which Rene Maran is a clear example. As for further conclusions, the most obvious is that Paris is not New York and that Mr. Jack Dempsey is very lucky not to live in the leasing town.
Fleet St. Queen, Brownhay,
Sunday was observed as Missionary
Day, known throughout the church as
Foreign Mission Day. The pastor Dr.
Brown, preached at 10:45, showing
for his theme "Working with Palestine
vs. Working and Waiting." This was
a worthy tribute to those who had
worked unaccentedly, for the promotion
of the work in Foreign lands, and an
incentive for better and a more tangible
work for the living fields.
Al S. a. m. Mf. Rev. R. E. Tylor pastor of Bridge stater A. M. E. Church addressed the audience from the theme "The place of the Christian in the world." This was Dr. Tylor's first role as pastor of the church and the minister was one of a special training to preserve the church with a deep understanding of its mission.
WITH OUR GIRLS
WELKLIMINAM SUGGESTION
Editor of Tum New York Amt:
I received your letter asking that you would be compelled to do away with the Girl Quilt in The Age, unless we showed more interest in it. I am asking in behalf of the Augusta girls, in fact, all the column girls, that you give us another chance, and I will assure you that we will do better. As for myself, I have also been puzzled over the lack of interest the girls are showing. Perhaps it is because they are on their vacations. Then there is another reason why our column is growing small; when I joined this column the girls made me feel so good by so many welcomes, but now you hardly ever see that expression — "Welcome to all the new members." It seems now as though the "Chain of Friendship" has been broken by some link that fall out. Then on the opposite side there should be something to appear in the column every week to make the girls more interested, such as a puzzle, witty sayings, a poet's corner. These will not only inspire the girls to come back, but will aid your paper also. Let the girl that solves the puzzle every week for three months, and sends in one year's subscription for The Age receive a prize, also the title of being the "Cheriver Girl" in the column. The girl coming next and sending in a subscription for The Age, receive a prize also, and the title of being the "Noblest Girl" of the column. The girl coming next and sending in a subscription for The Age receive a prize also, and the title of being the "Happiest Girl" of the column (of course these titles are only surprises).
If you think this plan is useless to bother with, why you can drop the matter.
I am going to have a called meeting for the girls in my city who belong to the column, and try to make them more interested. The girls have asked me to ask you about how we could get The Age every week. Of course there is a man who sells The Age, but he is a non-respectful white man, who does not have any respect for us at all, and sometimes he is sold before we get to town to buy one. So I am asking you to please send me the rate per week or month or whenever the girls would like to pay for it. Please give us another chance in your column as it has benefitted us so much by getting acquainted with girls whom we have never seen. I think it is one of the greatest things ever founded. "WILHELMINA." Amurata Go.
'DEAR GIRLS:
Just, a few lines from an old-timer. Here's hoping every one is sitting atop of the world. Well, I suppose you all know the "Wonder Girls" are having a bazaar next month. We have also changed our meeting night to Friday, as many of our girls are students in evening school. We had a most grand and gorious meeting last week at "Buster's" house. "Moonbeams" was the whole show, she had on a Hawaiian dancer's costume and we'll say she danced like a through-bred.
"Ethel" was holding a conversation about her place of business. She said "There's a little red-headed girl in the place. She's not red but she's fat." The manner in which she spoke made all the girls roar. "Bubbles" was so busy crocheting, she didn't realize all that was said, when all of a sudden she gave one yell and went back in the morris chair. As for "Tootsie," she is one of those dear little children that are never heard "Buster" has cutesy little puppy and all the girls just smile for love with it. She is a loss what to name it. Maybe one of the girls has a pet name, if so send it in. In my next letter I will write on fads and fashions of the present day. Love to all.
DEAREST GIRLS:
Well, well, it has been an age since I last wrote to the column. I really am ashamed of myself. Now Summer it over I am going to try and be more attentive. I do hope all of the column girls enjoyed this Summer as much as I have. Mr. Jack Frost will soon be back with us again, and oh, how happy I am.

DEAR GIRLS:
I am so glad to see more letters from the old girls again. The "Wonder Girls" have some wonderful plans for the future. First, we are planning to have a bazaar about the last week in October, and we hope every girl will be able to come to our bazaar. Also if any of the girls know how to make any little nice pretty things, I will be very glad to accept some donations or some ideas from any girl in the Girl's Column. My address is, Miss Audrey Bolden, 313 East 54th street, New York. All of our "Wonder Girls" are not sewers or crocheters. I was reading in the Sunday News an article encouraging Italian girls to go to Manhattan Trade School. It was quite interesting, as I am a graduate from that school myself. I have heard several times lately that colored girls are not encouraged to go to that school. As I have made good, I wish to encourage all colored girls just as those Italian girls were being encouraged in the Sunday News. All the trades are free of charge, and you can have any trade you want to have—dressmaking, millinery, manicurizing, typewriting, machine operating, etc. When I was a little girl I used to hate the sight of a needle, but when I went to Briveg High School in Long Island, and when I had a little bit of sewing there, I grew to like it. I took a dressmaking course of one year and a half. I learned draping and drafting and custom designing and sketching, etc. I was then sent out to a position for twelve dollars a week. That was three years ago, and last January they sent me to a place for thirty dollars a week, and I am still at the same place. I can always get a position from the school and I still go to night school to continue my custom designing. I hope every girl who can go to the school will go and learn all they possibly can. Mr. Moore said he woo'd isometric print one of my sketches in the paper, so look for it. Good-bye, Girls, until next week. "BUSTER."
DEAR GIRLS
Well, girls, I left camp looking forward to next year when I shall go again. We left New York on a palatial steamer. The day was ideal and the sail was a pleasant introduction to all the good times that were in store for us. We got to Bear Mountains on time and then for that one hour's swift ride out to the camp. The road seemed to be just like the beautiful Hudson, winding around and around until we get to our Lake Torrilla. The girls were there to greet us with a shout. Before I could get my things packed away, I was off to examine the place. Ding! Dong! there goes the bell for lunch. Oh, such a nice hot lunch with cocoa and milk galore. We had a lovely tune that day and in the evening was campfire. We sang songs and played games then away to bed we treated.
"Mystery Girls," please hurry up so we can have a meeting

(By JESSE O. THOMAS).
Daytona, Fl.—On the morning of September 6, when all of the train, automobiles, buggyes and ox-cartes had arrived, the largest number of young women in its history, representing six states, were upon the campus of the Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute to present themselves for enrollment. Each train, automobile, buggy and ox-cart brought its quota, and many from the immediate community came afoot. Some were returning as former students for their last year, others were coming for their first time, and there were a multitude of intermediates. Mothers and fathers were bringing their daughters to put them under the guiding influence of the woman about whom they had heard so much; the one who is doing so much to shape the character of the womanhood of her race in that section of the nation. They came asking for Mrs. Thum—as many of them had the name of this great woman.
In her characteristic, ambitious, giving and purpose-fixing address, Mrs. Bednane welcomed this large group of young women to the school and urged them to get the Daytona spirit. Many visitors from the immediate community and -some from a distance, including Dr. Judson King, missionary to the Congo Region, Africa; Dr. and Mrs. J. C. Wright of the Edward Walters College, Jacksonville; Dr. S. Hill, a trustee of the school, Jacksonville; Miss Ellen O. Page, of the home economics department, Tallahassee College; Miss Shaw of Montgomery, Ala.; many of the ministry and citizens of the local community. The school is steadily growing in influence and prestige, and in its usefulness to the State of Florida and to the nation, expanding and multiplying its physical facilities.
The new dormitory, a three-story, fireproof structure of red brick and gray stone, is just being completed and is occupied for the first time by students and teachers. The rooms are neatly furnished in oak; the floors are beautifully stained; there are seventy-five bed rooms, well furnished with single beds and with accommodations for two in a room; each room has a large closet. There are an office for the preceptress, teachers sitting room, a large airy living room for the girls, and three guest chambers. Several rooms have been furnished by friends and bear their names. The guest chamber which has been set apart for the trustees has been handsomely furnished by the Alumni Association. In the girls' living room, beautiful electric light fixtures has been placed by the
All Dormitory Space Taken At Opening of Bordentown
---
(Special to The New York, Age).
Bordentown, N. J. The state of New Jersey Manual Training and Industrial School here opened its doors on the fifteenth to the largest enrollment yet secured by the institution. With two hundred and seventy-four students enrolled in the various classes and with fifty more on the waiting list, every available bit of dormitory space was utilized and a start made to what appears to be the most successful year the school has known. The graduating class this year enrolls forty-two members, larger than any previous senior class and represents in its membership twelve different counties of the state. Eighteen counties of New Jersey have sent students up to

plans of 1822. On each floor there are laboratories and showers both. The dimensions of this building are 128 by 36; the cost, furnished, $65,000. The first thousand dollars toward the building was given by the teachers and students in their 1921 rally. They gave an additional thousand in their 1922 rally. The whole amount contributed represents a few large subscriptions and a great many small ones, from $1 to $20, coming from people all over the country of every class and condition.
One of the encouraging features in connection with the financial campaign incident to the construction of this building was the gefitrous response of the fraternal organizations and the colored people generally throughout the State of Florida. Approximately $5,000 were given by the colored people. Other improvements that have been made during recent months, are a new brick-iron fence surrounding the entire campus; the old dormitory known as "Faith Hall" has been renovated and is admirably adapted to its present use as class rooms for the elementary school. Repairs and necessary alterations have been made in the McKeed Hospital, that renders it in splendid condition for service as a training school for nurses and as a health restoring institution for the Negroes, not only in Daytona, but throughout that section of the State.
A reorganization of the school has resulted in establishing an elementary school—kindergarten, primary, grammar grades through the sixth grade; junior high school—seventh grade; through the ninth; senior high school—10th grade through the 12th; Normal school for the training of teachers, continuing two years above the 4th year high. The nurse training school at the McLeod Hospital is open to students 18 years of age who have completed two years of high school work or its equivalent. In addition, there are special courses in music, home economics, physical culture and many other allied industries. There have been many new teachers added to the faculty for the year. With this additional equipment and arrangement of courses of study it is expected that this shall be the banner year of the Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute for girls located on the east coast of Florida.
FARM EXTENSION WORK

Bordentown this year, Essex heading the list with an enrollment of 46. Mounmouth County follows with 33 students, while Hudson and Union have 22 and 29 respectively.
That the athletic fame of Bordentown is spreading yearly is shown in the increased number of challenges which the football team has received this Fall. Its schedule as arranged includes games with the powerful Lincoln University eleven on October 7 at Bordentown, with Cheyney Normal School, with the Baltimore High School, and with Dumbar High of Washington. Chances look bright for a successful year in spite of the loss of five men from last year's line.
that did. In company with Henry Gorman paid guest for Negro men in Albany and C. H. Kynastie, who club taught for Negro boys, have been making a tour of impersonation visits, visiting Clinton county, building a meeting on September 11 at Malibu and Nyack districts, where there are large outposts owned by Negroes. On the 12th they visited Mobile county speaking at the Rosenwald school house at Grand Bay in the afternoon and at night at Phoenix Training School on invitation of Proof, I. E. Whitley, principal. On the 13th, Clarke county was visited, the meeting being held at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, near Grove Hill, where an audience of representative farmers and members of Home Demonstration clubs attended. The white county agent and health officer of the district attended, and spoke on saving the soil and health measures, respectively. Wilcox and Dallas counties were also visited with similar meetings. The local demonstration agent called the farm folk to gether at these meetings.
Professor Campbell, who was the first Negro demonstration agent under the auspices of the U. S. Department of Agriculture led the various audences in singing Negro melodies like "Oh what a song the Angels sung." "Gie me that ole time religion," "Swing low, sweet chariot." He made a heart to heart talk to his folk of the necessity of just coming together so as to understand one another. He said this, coming together of rural folks was all the more necessary since they had not the facilition for such a purpose as town and city folks had. It was necessary that they understood each other better and advised the adoption of a slogan similar to that used in a part of the West where the people lived so far apart from each other one time: Get acquainted with your neighbor; you might like him. He dwelt upon selfishness as a cause of the misunderstanding between individuals as as races, and gave instances in real life, and how common troubles bring a people together. He remarked that the late Booker T. Washington had said that he hoped to live to the time when medicine would be as free as sunshine and air and then proceeded to define this kind of education to follow. Heads of families should have more regard for life of the home. Men would not provide such commodities as snowwood and drinking water; but like the Egyptian taskmaster of old, required their wives to cook a meal, cut the wood and fetch the water in many cases from long distances. He showed where larger acres were owned by Negro farmers who had no home, their children packed together in one room without ordinary necessities of a decent life; harboring places of disease and immorality. As a race we need, he said, to imitate all that was moral, deceive and upilting in the white race. He would advise that it was impossible to get church and school to do that which the house had failed to do; the home impresses going with the child forever. On the health question, he had found it necessary to screen the home from flies and mosquitoes and to erect the sanitary toilet; but the daily for frequent bath was indispensable. In the enumeration of the above, he was showing the kind of education Dr. Washington had outlined, in whose portals old and young could enter for instruction and live the life the Creator had designed for his children, black and white alike.
INSURANCE CO. HONORS
ITS GENERAL MANAGER
Washington, D. C.—As a practical tribute to S. W. Rutherford, the National Benefit Life Insurance Company launched a two weeks' drive for September 11-23, inclusive, known as the S. W. Rutherford Fortnight. Each district of the ten states in which the company operates pledged themselves to submit $6,000 worth of insurance—$1,000 for each year the general manager has lived. Individual representatives determined to submit 56 applications.
The first to report at the end of the first week was Levi C. Brown, manager of the Richmond, Va. district, with 998 applications amounting to $65,779, covered by premiums of $65.29.
French African Pugilist Is Now World'sLight-Heavy Champion
Battling Siki, a Senegalese Boxer, Knocked Out Georges Carpentier, Idol of France, and Popular in All Countries, in Sixth Round
Bout Was Held Sunday, September 24, in Buffalo Stadium, Near Paris, Before Largest Fight Crowd Ever in France
battler took his blows and came back looking for more.
So confident was Carpentier of ultimate victory, however, that he was smiling as he went to his corner when the gong ended the first round. "I'll get him whenever I want to," he said to Francois Descamps, his manager and trainer. The crowd was evidently of the same opinion as Carpentier, for it lustily cheered Georges, the Senagalese not having landed a solid blow up to that time.
Battling Siki's Action in Ring Likened to Leopard
The physical make-up of battling Siki has been likened to that of the leopard. In action his great muscles play fascinatingly under a copper skin; he is extremely fast of foot and is wont to make great leaps when evading the punches of an opponent. This form is in striking contrast to the graceful Carpentier whose foot movement is that of the aesthetic dancer.
Siki is typical of the brigades of picked Senagalese soldiers brought to the Western front during the World War. Stahart, possessed
"Georges is letting him stay for the moving pictures," was an expression heard from various spectators. The big Semagalase evidently was considered a kind of sacrificial offering to the prowess of George for the edification of the boxing enthusiasts.
Champion Seemed Overtrained.
The French champion appeared thin. His complexion was sallow and his face drawn, but he had stripped off apparently in good condition for the flay, albeit somewhat "fine." Among the great multitude in the new Buffalo stadium it would not be venturing a guess to say there were comparatively few who believed the Senegelove would be returned the winner. Georges' weight was announced at 173.1 pounds. Siki stripped a beautiful picture of health and condition. His skin was like alley as compared with the whiteness of coat of the Frenchman. Carpentier smiled in his usual debonair style as the buthrobe of the black man fell from his shoulders.
On the first round Siki rushed out of his corner and met Carpentier before the Frenchman was fairly off of his chair. Carpentier, however, caught the black man with two straight rights. Siki covered up and then went down to one knee from a light left. The reference ordered him up. Carpentier then swung two hard rights to the jaw. Siki took them merely shaking his head, and bored in. Carpentier's face wore a puzzled expression, although plainly he was holding back. Siki did not land a clean blow.
In the second round Carpentier, with a look of disdain in his face, repeatedly jabbed Siki with his left, without return. Then, as Siki was rushing in, he caught the Negro flush on the jaw with a terrific right swing. Carpentier drew back, expecting Siki to drop under the blow. Siki, however, instead, rushed in and shot two short hooks to the body. This surprised Carpentier.
Negro Grina at Blowa
Just before the hell rang Carpenter again caught Siki flush on the chin, but the Negro merely grinned at him and said: "You don't hit very hard, Mr. Georges." The round wax Carpenter's by a wide margin, but the Frenchmen was puffing hard as he wandered to his corner. Also he had lost his confident smile.
In the third round Siki rushed from his corner toward Carpenter. Carpenter backed away and spared cautiously. Then he feinted with his left, and, obtaining an opening, drove a hard right to Siki's jaw. The Negro dropped to one knee and took a count of seven. Then he jumped up and caught Carpenter with left and right swings to the stomach. Carpenter went down and took a count of four.
When the Frenchman atrobe he plainly was groggy. Ski, seeing his advantage, showered rights and leapt upon him, always playing for the stomach. He had Carpenter gasping for breath and staggering at the end of the round. In the fourth round Ski pummed carpenter all over the ring. The Frenchman was barely able to withstand the punishment. He was bleeding, his right eye was closed his nose was flattened and his mouth was wide open. Carpenter resorted to all the known tricks of his long experience. He neeavedow to hold the arms of the Negro under his own arm pits.
No Mark Shows on Black
Siki, over anxious to finish his man, missed many blows that would have ended the bout that they landed. Meanwhile, Georges occasionally shot wicked rights against his opponent, which, however, failed to slow him up. Up to this time the Negro showed no marks of punishment.
In the fifth round Siki again sprang to the offensive from his corner, including quickly to polish off the Frenchman. Carpenter met the attack with a blow blow and was warned by Referee Bustapain. The low blow seemed to engage Siki, who went furiously at Carpenter, missing numerous swings. Finally, however, he caught Carpenter with a short knock to the jaw and the Frenchman went down. Carpenter, who was over the reggae gripped them in rinsing and batted Siki in the stomach. The Frenchman was helpless. Again he was urged by the referee for batting. Meanwhile the crowd was telling the players to stop the encounter. When the long grip Carpenter engaged groggyly all round.

This form is in striking contrast to the graceful Carpentier whose foot movement is that of the aesthetic dancer. Siki is typical of the brigades of picked Senagalese soldiers brought to the Western front during the World War. Stahlwart, possessed of great strength and endurance, and an irresible foe when excited, he crouches and bundles together his massive-muscelled shoulders, much after the fashion of Jack Dempsey.
Grin Changes to Leer.

A broad grin, exposing the perfect white teeth so typical of the Negro, grin up his face as he goes into fictive combat. At times this grin narrows until it becomes somewhat of a leer, perhaps intended to frighten an adversary.
In all of his ring engagements in France Siki has been successful. But in none of them prior to his bout with Carpentier did he display any terrifying power. He knocked out Harry Reeve, a former light-heavyweight champion of England, in the sixth round of a match in Mursellees, and received the decision over Marcel Nilles in fifteen rounds in Paris. After the latter bout Carpentier's manager, Franois Descamps, who is credited as being a shrewd judge of fighting ability, asserted that Siki was such a poor fighter that he would not permit of Carpentier's meeting him. Siki also outpointed Paul Journe, the lumbering French heavyweight, who visited the United States and helped to train Carpentier for the fight in which he met defeat at the hands of Jack Dempsey. Journe twice was defeated by heavyweights of the second class while in the United States.
The success of the Senegalese possibly will start talk of a match between him and Harry Willis, the American Negro heavyweight, who is being groomed as a prospect for a championship bout with Dempsey.
Senegal, Siki's home, is a French colonial dependency in Western Equatorial Africa. The inhabitants of the country are mainly Moors and allied Berber races and Negroid. The latter, however, form the greater portion of the population.
When the gong rang for the sixteenth round Carpenter came out, hardly able to stand. A majority of the spectators expected his second, Descamps, to throw up the sponge, as the Frenchman was unable to put up his hands. A short uppercut from Siki sent Carpenter recling backwards, and then the Negro drove hard rights and lefts to the body. Carpenter crumpled to the floor, half-way through the ropes, completely out, after 1 minute and 10 seconds ofighting. Siki weighed 174 pounds. At the end of the bout Siki was remarkably fresh and here no signs of the encounter.
Ready to Fight Dempsey.
"You had better cable Mr. Rickard tonight that I am willing to tight Dempsey right away," said the Senegalese to "This will be enough fighting for today." remarked M. Heller, Siki's manager, as he quickly started his projege toward his dressing room. Siki fought a clean and fair battle. He had the crowd with him in the last two rounds, especially after he had lifted Carpentier from the floor when the Frenchman was virtually helpless in the fifth round. As he placed Carpentier on his feet the Frenchman swung blindly a wicked left to Siki's jaws. This caused the crowd to shoot and jeer Carpentier. The reversal of the first decision of the referee in giving the bout to Carpentier on an alleged foul probably saved the boxing game in France from a black eye, as the crowd apparently was invilling to countenance a fairly defeated man, completely out and helpless, being declared the winner.
Decisions Favored Descamps.
This particularly was true by reason of the fact that there had been two other disqualifications in the preliminaries, both fighters who profited by the decisions belonging to the "stable of Framois Descamps, Carpenter's manager. The two men who received the favorable decisions were Fritsch, who won the Olympic featherweight title in 1920, when Billy Merchant, of England, was declared to have hit him low in the third round, and Charley Ledoux, who was declared the winner over Benny Thomas, of England, in the eighth round for lack of fighting spirit on the part of the Englishman.
Referee Bernstein had his part of the ring under the protection of the police while the judges were deliberating on the question of who was the winner of the bout. Descamps also was the object of the anger of the crowd. Many persons attempted to reach him, but he made a quick getaway. The spectators in the popular seats, which sold for 7 francs each, and for which many persons had been saving their centimes for many weeks, were especially bitter in denouncing the referee for his decision in declaring Carpenter the winner. A majority of the crowd, however, seemed to take great joy in seeing one more idol shattered.

DANNY EDWARDS LOSES IN FIRST MIXED BOUT
Danny. Edwards, colored bantam-weight champion, was defeated by Irish Johnny Curtin of Jersey City in a twelve round bout at the Pioneer A. C. Tuesday night. September 26. Edwards put up a stiff fight, but his opponent was the aggressor throughout the fight, and outboxed him in the last two rounds. Edwards weighed 121 3-4 pounds, while his opponent, weighed 119 3-4.
The bout was witnessed by a crowd estimated at 5,000 people, who packed the club to its capacity. Several hundred people were turned away because of lack of space.
In one of the preliminary bouts of eight rounds, Ansell Bell, a colofed Harlemite, was an easy winner over Johnny Lavieine of Brooklyn. Bell was the winner in every round. His weight was 124 pounds and that of his opponent 126 pounds.

If the management of the 300th Infantry continues to give the type of entertainment furnished at the boxing show at the 15th Armory on Friday night, September 22, boxing will soon become so popular in Harlem this army will not be able to hold the crowds. With the announcement of the breaking down of the barrier against mixed bouts outside of the armories and the presentation of an excellent card of bouts, this army was packed to the doors on Friday night when George P. Moore staged his third weekly show, which proved to be the best he has yet staged.
In the main bout, scheduled for twelve rounds, Sandy Taylor of the 30th regiment scored a technical knockout over Mike 'Carrier' of the 102nd regiment
after eight rounds of furious fighting. An old wound on Carrier's forehead was opened in the eighth round, and bled so pretensely that the boat was stopped at the end of this round and Taylor awarded the decision as a technical knockout. Both fighters in this bout were evenly matched, and Taylor, may not have won on points had it not been for the loss of blood by his opponent, so they have been matched for a return bout in three weeks.
Kid Rash the bantamweight champion of the National Guard, again put up one of the best fights ever seen at this regiment in the ten round semifinal bout. George Baden was advertised as his opponent, but because of an injury to his nose while training, he could not fight. Tommy Fain of the

Fall Court Defense supplemented in the plain and proved to be a bounty opponent for the colored hatter. In the beginning Rash seemed to hold Fain's ability too lightly, but in the second round his point of view on this subject was changed for Fain opened the round with a rolloff of blows to the head and face of the little batman that almost carried him off his feet. The colored fighter's gameness and ability to take punishment saved him from being knocked out in this round. In the next round, Fain again led a ferocious attack on his opponent, but Rash came back strong after the surprise of the previous round, and the next two or three rounds, were about even. In the last few rounds, Rash took the lead but was unable to do any material damage to his opponent. The judges declared the bout to be a draw. Their weights were, Rash 117 pounds, Fain 121%.

The original Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City were defeated in a double leader by the Lincoln Giants before a crowd of ten thousand people at Protectorial Oval on Sunday, September 24. The first game was one of the best played games seen this season, and was only won in the last inning by Joe Williams, who substituted for Bradford in this inning. The Bacharachs led in the scoring and retained this lead until the fifth inning when Thomas hit a home run. This tied the score until the winning run was made in the last inning by the Lincoln. The score was 3-2. In the second game the Bacharachs played very poorly and were beaten 6-2. The game was called in the 7th inning because of darkness. "Doc" Wiley was the star for the Lincoln in the second game, hitting a home run in the third inning. The summary of the games were as follows:

FEAR MME. HACKLEY IS
A PERMANENT INVALID
(Special to The New York Age
Detroit, Mich. It is feared by friends
that Mme. E. Azalia Hackley, who
work in promoting Negro folk song
festivals in all sections of the country
had made her one of the best known figures
of the race, has become a permanent
invalid. Since the seizure she had
in California some time ago, following
which she was brought to her home here
at 436 Clinton avenue, she has shown
little sign of improvement.
Now it is thought that she is not only
physically infirm, but that her mental
is also affected. In fact, it is probable
that her mental ailment has affected her
physically, according to those who are
familiar with her condition.
Notwithstanding that news concerning
Mme. Hackley is of such depressing
nature, her friends and family are sanguinely hoping that with time she will
regain much of that superb poise
imperious confidence which was notably
characteristic of her.
One of the largest theatrical companies ever taken out of New York City by promoters was headed by Moss & Przy, a time vaudevillians, who settled upon the rather suggestive title ad. "Thumb Luck" as a characterisation for their offering. Ninety-three people were on the stage and among the members were some of the best known figures amongcolleagues Thespians and musical artists. "Thumb Luck" was presented by house band at the theatrical customer, who formed Louis Rosen Producing Co.; and Moss was the active manager. He was responsible for the post-show company through New England, not known, but two weeks covered the life of the play. The opening was at Stamford, Conn., on Monday September 11, and the closing on Saturday, September 23, at Worcester. Mass. From all accounts, screening two weeks brought some exciting experiences to members of company who had no financial resof their own.
In the collapse of this company brought by the finest acts of voluntary and compassion the profession has been head of.

PULLMAN PORTER NEWS
BY JANES H. MOGANS.
Mr. James Weldon Johnson's "Views and Reviews" are always interesting to us; so when he comments on a subject of much vital importance to the fraternity of porters, waiters and other service attendants on Tipus, we are doubly interested. A few days ago under the heading "To Tip or Not To Tip," he described the staging system as it is practiced in the hotels of Europe, especially the influence it has on those unaccounted to travelling. But we do not know of porters and waiters are included in the tip department or not.
Before describing Great Britain's system of feeling, he began with "To Tip or Not To Tip"—that's the question.
Then he goes on: "Those who have not travelled much do not realize what a puzzling question it is," often which causes us to assume that the confusion is universal. If that is what he really meant to imply, we are also puzzled at the mental arrangement of any traveller or tourist who can not decide what he must give. It access to us that the size of one's income or purchases should determine that question, even in Europe. Fortunately the European and American tipping systems differ. Although the tipping here would be the same, the local impersonal and other employees pay shall serve attendants a wage at least. That allows the unequivocal notion to go by way completely. In reporting the European Tipping System most American writers addhoo go to the extent of explaining that these amounts are paid no wages. They are absolutely dismantled on the tip for their salary. In many places the tipping of tipping is a payoff or reward to be paid for. In some places it is a reward to be paid for. In some places it is a reward to be paid for.

Howard Football Squad Begins Its Shaping Up For Lincoln
(Special to The New York Age).
Washington, D. C.-On September 15 the Howard football squad was called forth by Coach Morrison and the work begun which will only end when Howard and Lincoln teams clash in their annual football classic, to be played this year in Washington on the gridiron at American League Baseball Park, on Thanksgiving 'Day, November 30, at 10.30 o'clock in the morning.
With reference to various and different statements which have been given publicity "concerning the Howard-Lincoln game, Secretary-Treasurer Emmett J. Scott has issued an explanation as to why the game is to be played at 10.30 a.m., instead of in the afternoon, as heretofore, 'Said Dr. Scott:
"Georgetown and George Washington Universities, both located here, have contracted with the park management to stage their annual Thanksgiving game every year at American League Park, and in addition, these colleges will play four to six games every year. Howard can only book one game every other year that is big enough to be taken in the park, and that is the game with Lincoln, which allocates each year from one home gridron to the other. This necessitated a new arrangement. Howard has agreed with Georgetown University and the park management to play at 10,30 a.m. giving ample time for the game and for clearing the grounds before the afternoon game of the other two Washington universities."
"Football festivals for visitors will begin the day before Thanksgiving and will wind up with two big affairs under supervision of the Howard administration—a reception from 2 to 6 p.m., and another from 8 to 12 midnight, both at the Coliseum."
comes and goes without remembering them?
There are some in America who associate tipping with charity—but the two words have decidedly different meanings. The three words "tip," "tie" and "bonus" are synonymous. One is indeed entitled to his own opinion in the matter, but we repeat "tipping is not charity."

Anti-Lynching Crusaders
Urges a United Sisterhood
At a recent Spring Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Newark, N. J., Congressman Dyer, author of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, said, If one million colored people got together and decided lynching must go, it would go.
Sixteen colored women from five states immediately formed themselves into a committee of Anti-Lynching Crusaders and decided to put on an intensive campaign for the purpose of uniting one million women to end lynching and mob violence. The committee went into permanent organization on July 8. By manhuntous vote, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert was elected president.
This promises to be the biggest and swiftest movement ever undertaken by colored women. The women of the race have always stood by the men in the hour of need. The hour has come when their help is most needed and they should stand firmly together to sweren away this evil which is not only an injustice that falls most heavily upon the Negro but which makes our Nation a byword of seem. An added reason is the fact that within the past thirty years eighty-three women have been bledhed in the election of Mrs. Mary R. Laleban of the district Mrs. Helen Curts of New York has been chosen as first national vice director, Mrs. Butler R. Wilson of Boston as second national vice director, Mrs. Lalifan Alexander of New York as secretary, and Miss Mary E. Jackson of 351 Willard avenue, Providence, R. I., as national organizer. Committees on publicity, program, finance and campaign literature have been formed.
Ms. Talbert announced that forty prominent colored women in as many states have accepted duty as state directors, and that fifteen hundred women all over the country have volunteered to act as key women.
It is intended that this movement should include all who are interested in law and order and justice. Already a num- brium of women in the women in influence have joined the movement, and is the intention to secure the cooperation of all the powerful organizations among white women in the country.
The actual carrying out of the plan will begin Sunday, October 1, with a surprise prayer meeting in the churches

drought the company, as laid out that this campaign should begin by involving blessing and help of God upon it. The practical object of the agreement is to raise $1,000,000, given by a million women, through segregation and social disinhibit, to serve as a fund to be used to stamp out breeding and for the defense of the Negro in his fundamental rights as an American citizen. Arrangements are being made to have the General Trust Company of New York, at 522 Fifth avenue, act as depository for the fund.
SLOGAN—A Milling Woman United to Succeed Lynchburg
FUNERAL SERVICES FOR LATE REV. E. C. MORRIS Helena, Ark—The death of Dr. Elias Camp Morris at Little Rock Ark. September 5, 1922, marked an epoch in the history of the Negro Baptists of the United States. The funeral services were held at his home in Helena, on Tuesday, 12, attended by eight thousand people from all walks of life, representing both races, and citizens of his own city where he spent forty-three years in the pastorate of Centenial Baptist Church.
According to a statement made by R. H. Hudson of Selma, Ala., for eighteen years secretary of the National Baptist Convention, who had charge of all arrangements for the services, the funeral was attended by four hundred representatives of the National Baptist Convention, of which Dr. Morris had been president for 20 years, and official members of the convention, including chairman and secretaries of the several boards, who served as honorary pill bearers. The sermon was delivered by Dr. W. G. Parks, of Philadelphia, Pa., vice-president of the Convention; culinary by Dr. W. M. Taylor, of Baton Rouge, La.; biblical was read by Dr. R. B. Tracy, Isaac Tracy, scriptures and by Rev. C. H. Parrish, president of Simmons University, Louisville, Ky.; and prayer was offered by Dr. S. E. J. Wayson of Illinois, Dr. J. C. Jackson, of Hartford, Conn., was master of ceremonies. The services were conducted in Centennial Baptist Church.
As evidence of concern, the mayor issued a proclamation calling upon the business men to close their places of business, for thirty minutes during the funeral services. This was the third time this honor had been paid to any citizen of Helena, and the first time to a colored man.
The floral offerings were numerous and elaborate and came from all sections of the United States. Scores of telegrams, letters of condolence and resolutions attested the popularity and influence of the great leader and chieftain.
Dr. Morris was a member of the Federal Council of Churches of America, the only Negro member of the Baptist World Alliance, founder of the Arkansas Baptist College, and chairman of its board of trustees at the time of his death, and for twenty-five years the president of the Arkansas Baptist State Convention.
He was born in Georgia in 1855, educated in the public schools of Alabama and at Roger Williams University, Nassau, Tennessee.

When, there have come conquests, existence in our country, since the World War certain societies whose members are secret, disfigured and masked; which organizations, while proclaiming their loyalty to the government of the United States, in reality, by appealing to religious prejudice and racial antipathy, by attacking the rights of people by affording opportunity for acts of violence, have pursued a course tending toward the overthrow of the very foundation of ordered society:
"And, whereas, in many places in which a society of this nature has been introduced there have followed numerous instances where persons without the ceremony of trial have been taken out, by masked men, tarred and feathered, cruelly whipped and otherwise hutilated and maltreated; and others, by threats and intimidation, have been driven from their homes and communities and deprived of their inalienable rights without due process of law." "And, whereas, such an organization is morally responsible for crimes of this nature committed in its name and by men wearing its garb, whether they are really members thereof or not, because the very nature of the organization opens the way for any lawless element in a community to operate with but little fear of arrest and punishment; therefore be it
"Resolved, by the House of Deputies, the House of Bishops concurring, that we solemnly condemn all secret socalled patriotic societies, whose masked and unknown memberships capitalize bigotry and hate, foster racial and religious prejudices, and encourage acts of lawlessness and mob violence.
"Be it further resolved, that is, the conviction of this convention, that any man or set of men, organized or unorganized, man, citizen against citizen, against neighbor, race against race, or creed against creed are the enemies of society and disloyal to the fundamental ideals of America, no matter in how strident tones their elites pose the position of ultra patriotism to violate
