New Jersey Colored Men Support Frelinghuysen
Senator Has Proven Himself to Be Consistent Friend to Race in Matters Affecting Their Welfare
Many Appointments Made
Urged Action in Senate on Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and Supported Loan of $5,000, 000 to Liberia—First Appointments in Revenue Service
A special appeal to colored voters of the State of New Jersey in behalf of the candidacy for reelection of Senator Joseph S. Frelenglysen is meeting with most favorable response. This is because the New Jersey Senator has been absolutely four-square in his attitude towards matters that affect interests of the Negro.
To Call Congress in Special Session to Act on Dyer Bill
President Harding To Convene Body For Purpose of Having the Anti-Lynching Bill Passed, Thus Avoiding Disaffection of Negro Vote
A repopulation of Senator Frelinghuysen's activities discloses that not only has worked in behalf of the race along marked lines, but he also opened new avenues of recognition. For instance the Internal Revenue Department of the state had never, ben opened to public citizens until, through his influence Senator Frelinghussen succeeded in forming places for his colored constituents. Five appointments have been made to this time, the first ever made in the state.
In addition to these, he was largely responsible for the only diplomatic post in the race, the appointment of the Rev Dr Solomon Porter Hood of Trinidad as Minister to Liberia, with the father naming of Carlton Wall of Morrison as clerk of the American Legion.
Urged Action on Dyer Bill.
The Liberian loan, pledged by this country to the little African Republic by the former Administration, has been presently supported by the New Jersey Senator, who knows that the sympathies of colored people in America are with Liberia.
In the Senate, where the Dyer Anti-limching Bill was unacted upon before enquiry, it was Senator Frelinghuysen's influence which operated to get the measure out of the Senate Judiciary Committee, notwithstanding strong opposition on part of Democratic members of that committee. And it is believed by those who know of the close relations between President Harding and Senator Frelinghuysen that the Presidency announced intention of calling a special session of Congress in November in action on the Dyer Bill as one of the most specific purposes, is influenced by Senator's advice. A definite promise has been made by Senator Frelinghuysen work for the eventual passage of the
Worked for Interest of Race.
He matters affecting welfare of the Senator has been sincere and intelligent. This has been notably awarded the development of the MTA Training School for Negro Students. Hudsonown. He has been instrumental in securing much of the information shown this institute to state authorities, and he has contributed increased appropriation for further development of the state. During his service as Senator he has shown an active interest in the collisions and in all things, public or private he has exhibited as true and hard to handle for the race as could be treated for any other group of persons. In the present campaign attention of public opinion in New Jersey is centered on the work made by Senator Frelingham in the sense of its outstanding character in the work he has done in behalf of the colored citizens of the state. He has extremely active in enforcement of the majesty of law, enforcing the colored citizens suffer more from enforcement of law than any other group.
In the State Primary on September 20, Frelnghihysen was nominated a majority of approximately 11th, covering every county in the state. Hudson, the home county of his support, Attorney George L. Retert of Jersey City. It is practically certain that the Senator will have the unified support of the colored voters, with regard to party or other affiliations.
Washington, D. C.—Indications are that the Republican Senators are waking up to realization of the fact that New Yorkers throughout their various cities are indignant at the shelving of the Dyer Anti-lynching Bill by the United States Senate after it had been passed by the House. This is shown by the announcement in Government that President Harding will call for the convening of Congress an extraordinary session and that he will urge passage of the Dyer Bill. The call will be extended until after the November election, but it is definitely stated that American leaders have given permission to pass the bill at the special session. It is expected that prolonged debates will follow aking up of the bill, but it

DR. MINTON TALKED ON TUBERCULOSIS
As a recent joint meeting of the New York Tuberculosis Association and the North Harlem-Medical Society held at the 135th street library, Dr. Henry M. Minton, the well known authority on tuberculosis, delivered a timely and interesting address on this subject.
Dr. Minton is superintendent of Merry Hospital and school for nurses in Philadelphia and also conducts the Colored Tuberculosis Clinic at Henry Phipps Institute for the colored people of that city. In his lecture in New York he told of the work being done in these institutions. Among the other speakers on this program was Dr. James Alexander Miller, president of the New York Tuberculosis Association.

is thought that the President's influence will operate to secure a sufficient number of votes to ensure its passage. It is alleged that the bill was passed by the House with the understanding that it was to be killed in the Senate. The fact that colored voters in northern states exhibited signs of unrest brought about action to the extent that Senator Lodge made a favorable report on the bill.
When Congress adjourned, leaving the bill enacted upon, many thought it was practically dead. With the heavy Negro vote threatening many of the Republican Senators, however, there appears to have come a change in the situation, and the Call for a special session of Congress to act upon the Dyer Bill is expected to hold off disaffection among the colored people.

Friday, October 13, may have been
unlucky for some people but not for the
guards on Ellis Island, for on this day
Commissioner Tod informed them that
an advance had been made in their sali-
aries, rating as follows. All those in
the service more than two years, get
having received any increase, $300; all
those in the service less than two years,
$240.
Those in the service more than two
years now receive $1,440 per year.
All the employees admire Commissioner
Tod for his fair-mindedness to all,
regardless of race, creed or color. It
is said by some of the senior employees
that heretofore, when salaries were
raised, favoritism has been shown.
Commissioner Tod has been in office
one year, having been appointed in Sep-
tember of last year.
A copy of the commissioner's letter follows:

WASHINGTON BANKER
COMMITTED SUICIDE
(Special to The New York Age).
Washington, D. C.-William Henry Ricks of Corcoran street, who for seven years has been paying teller for the Industrial Savings Bank, committed suicide last week, domestic troubles being assigned as the cause.
The attempt was made at the Ricks' home on Tuesday, October 10, but death did not cause until the next day at Emergency Hospital, to which place Mr. Ricks was removed.
The dead man was prominently connected in church and fraternal circles, and had served for many years as an officer of Metropolitan A. M. E., Zion Church. The funeral was held from that church.

Marcus Garvey: The Man: An Intimate Study Of A Leader's Personality
(By LUCIEN H. WHITE).

"Marcus Garvey is as strong as a lion, as courageous as a bull dog, and as obstinate as a jackass!" This was the characterization given to the leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association by one of the most faithful and efficient lieutenants, a man who is perhaps closer to the great organizer than any other of those working with him.
A visit to the general offices of the association at 54-56 West 135th street was followed by a tour of the various activities being conducted by the U. N. I. A. and African Communities League.
Whether in the neat, sanitary lunch room, of which there are three; or in the well-appointed, fully stocked grocery stores, of which there are also three; in the busy laundry, the humming tailor shop, the new hotel or the spacious auditorium of Liberty Hall, there is one dominating personality—that of Marcus Garvey, president general and administrator of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and its allied organizations.
One who has had no previous personal contact with this man is apt to have formed some opinions concerning him that are dissipated when a chance is offered to talk to him. A rather unusual condition is that he is easily recognized from his printed photographs. Whether in plain civilian garb or robed in the gorgeous habiliments of his high and responsible office, the strength of line of his rugged features brings out the lineaments of the rugged face with tidality to nature.

But there is one characteristic about this man that is apparent to the most casual observer. There is a
The Man's Personality
The massive head and high-braced torso, however, serve to mislead one as to the man's actual physical development, for they are of almost giant proportions, judging from the photographs. Close personal contact reveals that he is only of medium height, sturdy of lower limb, it is true, but not possessing the physical development indicated by photos of the upper body. With it all, however, there is a not unpleasing symmetry of body, from the small feet, raster slightly built legs, to the large trunk, with more than a slight tendency to empionpoint, topped with the head that has ample room for a well developed brain. Small, rather close-set eyes sparkle as he chats, but becomes grim and icy where he is not pleased. It is an index of character, perhaps, that he is inclined to reticence, amounting almost to a self-centered withholding of confidence from his associates, and this perhaps is heightened by an obsession that capable and trustworthy lieutenants are almost impossible of development. It is told of President-General Garvey that every detail of the many transactions of the various commercial activities of his enterprises must be laid before him for final O. K. This applies to everything, from the smallest office need to the largest operation. To Mr. Garvey is ascribed a remark to the effect that this is necessary because he simply cannot find assistants who may be trusted to carry out his ideas.
Under Themendous Strain.
Of course, say his co-workers, there may be some superman who is capable of carrying this tremendous burden successfully, but they express doubt that President-General Garvey will be able to hold up under the strain. In proof of this opinion, it is pointed out that serious financial losses arising from operation of the Black Star Line of steamships, with other leakages of extensive import, would have been avoided if there had been provided what might be called a board of strategy, for consultation and advice, composed of men of character and ability, who would bring to their chief loyal and faithful service. But it appears that this was not done, with the result that it was simply impossible for all the various poor ends of operations being carried out by the

But there is one characteristic about this man that is apparent to the most casual observer. There is a grim determination to achieve what he has set out for, and every element of his nature must bend itself toward this end.
A Big Organization
It is a tremendous organization which Marcus Garvey has created, and its extent is hardly realized by the outside world. There are eleven principal departments housed under the roof of the headquarters' building at 54-50 West 135th street, and with each of these departments Mr. Garvey is in immediate and direct contact. For instance, a question came up in the legal department which involved the matter of some small sum, hardly more than $10. The settling of this amount appeared to involve some matter of principle, which Mr. Garvey

Voters in the 21st Congressional District, Manhattan, are rallying to the support of Martin C. Ansorge for reelection to Congress. In 1920 he was elected by the largest plurality of any Congressman in Manhattan, and the indications point to a similar result in 1922.
Mr. Ansorge's candidacy is of special interest to colored voters because of the consistent and sincere friend he has been to the race. In every instance, when the colored citizen's interest has been at stake, Martin C. Ansorge has taken a definite and uncompromising stand against racial discrimination of any sort.
As a member of the Republican State Convention in 1920, Mr. Ansorge offered a resolution, incorporated in the Platform Committee's report, and made a part of the State platform, declaring for equal rights to all citizens, irrespective of race, creed or color, and for enforcement of the 13th 14th and 15th Amendments to the Federal Constitution, and condemning lynch law.
successful fight for humane hours in vocational schools, but he has also voted for all appropriations for soldier's hospitalization, rehabilitation and adjusted compensation.
One of his most conspicuous acts in Congress was introduction of the Ansorge Port of New York resolution, passed by Congress and signed by President Harding in June, 1922, granting Federal authority for future development of the Port of New York, a work destined to be of great and lasting value to the commercial growth of the city.

Fought for Anti Lynching Bill
In the halls of Congress Mr. Ansorge has not only fought for passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, but also introduced other bills intended to make lynching a federal offense. Countrywide attention was attracted to Congressman Ansorge last winter as a result of his naming a young colored boy, Emil Treville Holley, for appointment as cades at Annapolis Naval Academy. In local affairs, whether civic, political or charitable, Mr. Ansorge has been conspicuously active. He has been liberal in time and money in aiding local charities, especially those operated by and for Negroes.
Born in Corning, Steuben county, New York, in 1842, Mr. Ansorge was brought to this city when three years old and has resided in the 21st district continuously since 1885. He was educated in public schools 39, 57 and 89, and took college and law courses at Columbia University. He was connected with the business firm of Ansorge Bros. & Co. 657 Broadway, and a member of the law firm of Podell, Ansorge & Podell, Woolworth Building.

Ministers of New York City of all denominations have put themselves on record in the matter of fighting the present illicit and demoralizing sale of prohibition hooch to the people of Harlem.
At a meeting of the Interdenominational Ministers Union, held last week, and at a meeting of the Baptist Ministers Union, both held at the home of Fred R. Moore, editor of The New York Age, 228 West 135th street, resolutions were unanimously adopted approving the fight being made by The New York Age through its exposure of the Harlem liquor traffic, and pledging every assistance possible to bring about a curtailment of the damnable condition.
The women are taking a hand, too, as was evidenced by the presence at the meeting of Mrs. Ruth R. Dennis of 437 West 35th street, who asked cooperation of the ministers on behalf of the womien, and pledging the forming of an organization among the latter which will work to bring about better conditions.
Among the ministers present, who pledged their hearty and wholesouled support, were the Revs. A. Clayton Powell, Lawson, G. W. Hinton, W. W. Brown, A. C. Garner, W. C. Brown, L. B. Moore, R. J. Brown, Calvin Lane, William A. Harris, A. B. Vincent, A. W. Nix and Mr. Shepard.

In behalf of tenants, he was chairman of the tenants' advisory committee in his assembly district, giving free advice to tenants on rent laws and he participated, without compensation, as counsel for tenants in state and federal courts, including Supreme Court of United States, in upholding constitutionality of New York rent laws.
His Party Affiliations.
He is president of the Republican Club, 13th A. D., and is a member of the party organizations in the 19th, 21st, 22nd and 23rd districts. He is a member of the Republican County Committee, New York Young Republican Club, and since 1903 has been serving as Republican campaign speaker.
Mr. Ansorge holds membership in the Washington Heights Chamber of Commerce, Washington Heights Taxpayers' Association and Harlem Board of Commerce, and is chairman of the Tri-Borough Bridge Committee. He is an ex-president of the Young People's League and a member of the Harlem Federation and Federation of Charities.
A feature of the Ansorge campaign for reelection is the activity of a non-partisan committee, headed by Joseph J. O'Brien, with headquarters at 605 West 41st street, which has a list of more than four thousand Democrats, Republicans and independent voters who had occasion to communicate personally with the congressman. Many of these voters are giving active support to Congressman Ansorge in the effort to bring about his return to Congress.

An Intimate
Lead
One report is to the effect that new cafes opened at Seventh avenue and 134th street, at Seventh avenue and 138th street, and at other places, are owned by Italians who employ colored men to give their places a semblance of being conducted by members of the race which furnishes the greater number of customers.
Complain of Cabaret.
Complaints are being heard concerning the operation of Shuffle Inn, a cabaret operated in a basement of the Lafayette building at 131st street and Seventh avenue. This place was closed down for some time, following a raid by officers, but it is alleged that we proprietors have taken hold of the place, and that it has become a nuisance. One report is to the effect that scores of young white girls from other sections of the city frequent the place, and that it is headquarters for gangs of white gunmen and hoodlums from downtown who are driven to seek new hangouts by reason of the restrictive measures put in force in other localities with regard to closing hours.
Police orders have been issued to the effect that all cabarets must close doors at 1 o'clock, a.m., and officers are required to see that the orders are obeyed.
Another cafe in the same section as Shuffle Inn, on Seventh avenue, just below 131st street, is alleged to cater to women, females being allowed to enter even by the front door. In regard to this place, the report is that when these women customers become too much under the influence of the hooch they are unceremoniously removed from the place, being thrown out into a door opening into another hallway.
It is alleged that these conditions are so open and unbridled that it would be impossible for policemen not to be aware of them, and that it would be easy to suppress them if proper action was taken by the officers.
A Thankless Job.
The crusade conducted by The Age has attracted attention, even if it has not brought as yet any appreciable results. A letter has been received from Dr. J. R. Levy, Florence S. C., in which he expressed himself as follows:
"Let me congratulate you on the fight you are waging against the illegal traffic in liquor in Harlem. It is a thankless job, but I hope you will succeed in suppressing it."
With the aid of the ministers of the city, backed up by indignant womanhood, there must come some satisfactory result. The Harlem hooch hells must not be allowed to debauch and ruin the men and women, boys and girls of the race.
Marcus Garvey: The Man: An Intimate Study Of A Leader's Personality
was not willing to overlook. His legal advisor was included to suggest that expense and trouble would be saved by some sort of compromise settlement, but the president-general declared emphatically that the principle involved, which indicted alleged non-midnightness in the 'knm claimed, precluded the possibility of saving a few dollars against making a light for the right. It is probable that the matter was threshed out to the end. The operation of the Black Star Lane was spectacular and disastrous, and it has been superseded. But it is characteristic of Garvey that he still holds in his mind the purpose for which that company was formed. He plans. I am to bring about a recurrence of the moment and it is probable that if he will be guided by his advisers instead of trying to do everything necessary his efforts might be more successful. Close observation of the working of the company in the past indicates a lack of system in operations that must be remedied to avoid confused failure.
President-General Garvey is a West Indian, and it has been intimated that he has surrounded himself, in his New York office, with only West Indian assistants. That is not true. As a matter of fact, of some fifteen clerks and stenographers in the president-general's office, nine of them are said to be American born, and the first assistant to the president-general is an American.
These office attaches are paid good salaries, too, it appears, as the weekly pay roll is reported to be from $1,500 to $1,800 each week, and this is only the clerical force of the headquarters' offices, not including any of the head officials or any of the newspaper and magazine staffs.
There is not today in America a Negro who occupies the limelight to the same extent as does Marcus Garvey. Evidence of the truth of this statement is to be found in the fact that his every movement is a matter of news chronicling for the great news gathering agencies of the country. The great metropolitan dailies which either ignore entirely or give ceant space at best to activities of other leaders of the Negro race, devote street attention to anything Garvey does whether it is riding at the head of a gorgeous, glittering prosecution of his followers; interviewing the imperial wizard of the Invisible Empire, Kimbels of the Ku Klux Klan; propelling the reestablishing of the Black Star Line; advocating an exodus of Negroes to Africa; sending a delegation from the third-International Convention of the Negro People of the World to make a plea for the race before the League of

Three Publications.
Mr. Garvey evidently appreciates the value of newspaper; publicity, for he has had published, as an organ of the U. N. I. A., a weekly journal, The Negro World, the current issue of which is volume 13, number 10, which was entered under second class rates by the New York postoffice on April 16, 1919. Then three weeks ago, the publication of a daily, The Negro Times, was begun, and a monthly magazine, The Blackman, is announced for the year future.
For the physical equipment necessary to getting out these publications, Dister Garvey acquired the printing plant of the Beshire Printing Company, at 2305 Seventh Avenue, and this he has augmented by installing a Gross newspaper press, additional life-type and stereotyping unit in the headquarters building at 50 West 135th street.
The literary force on the Daily Times is headed by Mr. Garvey himself as executive editor, with an editorial staff composed of T. Thomas Fortune, editor; U.S. Poston, managing editor; W.A. Stephenson, news editor; J.A. Roders, sub news editor; John F. Bruce, H.G. Mudgal, Robert L., Poston, editorial writers; Remi E. Danghetty, sporting and dramatic editor; Arnold Potter and Robert Cross, reporters.
The weekly publication, The Negro World, also has Mr. Garvey as executive editor, with William H. Ferris, literary editor; Erin Waldman, assistant editor, Hudson C. Pryce, business manager.
The president-general's right hand man is G. Emmone Carter, first assistant, who is also head of the New York Local, which has its office in the same building. Mr. Carter has kindly furnished much of the data used in this article, and he personally directed the tour of U. N. L. A activities. Miss E. Lamos is secretary to the president-general.
FINANCIAL SHOWING
From other sources the Age has come into possession of an alleged copy of the report made by the treasurer to the parent body of the U. N. L. A and A. C. L., showing a condensed statement of resources and liabilities as of July 31, 1922.
According to this report, the total receipts from August 1, 1921, to July 31, 1922, were $187,633.54, of which voluntary contributions amounting to $14,165.25, and another item, "Construction Loan Notes," was $23,713.53. Expenditures

The editor of The New York Age is in receipt of a letter from Attorney William B. Brandon of Newark, N.J., who made an unsuccessful effort to secure the congressional nomination from the 9th New Jersey district in the State Primary held September 20, in which Mr. Brandon takes issue with the accuracy of a news article published in The Age of October 14, which article purported to give a summary of the primary result. It was a three-cornered race, with Congressman R. Wayne Parker seeking a renomination, being opposed by Mr. Brandon and Frank E. Davenport. In the story emphasis was laid on the fact that Parker had voted against the Dyer Antilynchick Bill and that race leaders in New Jersey regarded Mr. Brandon's race for the nomination as unwise, since it was alleged to have contributed to Parker's success by splitting up the opposition vote.
Attorney Brandon presents an analysis of the atual vote cast showing that the combined otev for himself and Davenport was less than the total received by Parker, but she opinion is advanced that if an estimated vote of 600 colored citizens, supposed to have been cast for Parker, had been added to the colored votes cast for Davenport and the whole shifted to Davenport, the result would have been different and the colored man would now be the congressional nominee from the 9th New Jersey district.
Attorney Brandon's letter is as follows:
Editor of the New York Age:
EDINOR OF THE NEW YORK ACE:
In an article on page 2 top of columns 5 and 6. The New York Age of Saturday, October 14, under the caption, "Opponent of Dyer Bill has been renominated in New Jersey." I note the writer says, "The combined vote of Brandon and Brandon equal the vote given Parker." The final report given out from the office of the County Clerk officially in the newspapers shows that Parker received 7,143 votes; Davenport received 5,440 votes; Brandon received 1,233 votes. The total vote posted by Davenport and Brandon was 6,673, which shows that Parker received over the combined vote of Brandon and Davenport, 420 votes.
The writer of this article as quoted in part above has for some reason better known to himself distorted facts and attempted to discredit a run that was made in the face of the strongest opposition from within the Negro race.

DR. JONES, VA. UNION UNIVERSITY, IS DEAD
(Special to The New York Age).
Richmond, Va.-Dr. Joseph Endom
Jones, of Virginia Union University,
Richmond, Va., died at his home on the
university campus on Saturday morning.
October 14, one day before his
seventh birthday. Dr. Joseph was born
October 15, 1852, of slave parents and
was taught to read and write by a Con-
federate soldier. He was one of the
first colored men of Virginia to receive
a college education, receiving the
degrees of bachelor of arts and master of
arts from Colgate University (then
Madison University). Hamilton, N. Y.
in 1870. He was immediately called to
Richmond Institute, subsequently Virginia
Union University, where he has
served ever since.
During the past thirty years he has
also been pastor of Bethesda Baptist
Church, near Petersburg, Va.
by supposedly race leaders. The words of the writer as quoted above in the article of October 14 cannot stand in the light of truth. The writer of this article further says: "Promising leaders of the race took an unpromising stand against Brandon, but the appeal to race consciousness was strong enough to give him fifteen pounds." The writer omits the thing that was a fact, and remains a fact, that cannot be erased out. The prominent race leaders, with no thought of principle involved, fought Brandon in an effort to place in office for congressional nomination a man who did all in his power to crush race consciousness and pride in Essex county three years ago politically.
Davenport was chairman of the Republican County Committee at the time when that body some years ago refused colored representation on the state ticket, Davenport endorsing such action and upholding the committee in their stand. If this writer would go to the public with the truth of the statement he would tell you that the thing that is true is this: Frank E. Davenport campaigned among the Negroes of the 9th Congressional District under the leadership of the self-same race leader who fought him three years ago and Davenport's black lieutenants under the slogan of "a vote for Brandon means a vote for Packet." The writer will further tell you that Jews and foreigners cast the greater portion of the 1,233 votes received by Brandon and if the colored people who voted for Frank E. Davenport had voted for Brandon and the 600 (placing it at a conservative figure) who voted for the opponent of the Dyer Anti-lynching Bill had cast their vote for Brandon, a colored man would be the congressional nominee from the 9th Congressional District of New Jersey on the Republican ticket. There are in the 9th Congressional District over 10,000 colored people of voting age. I leave it to the public to decide between the actual figures given and the distorted statements made in the October 14, 1922, to decide whether it was an ill move on the part of Brandon.
When will the day dawn that my people will say as the poet, "Welcome, Oh! Life! I go to encounter for the millionth time the reality of experience and to forge in the smithy of my soul the uncasted conscience of my race?"
WM. B. BRANDON.

VIRGIN ISLANDERS SUFFER FROM POVERTY
(Special to The New York Age).
Hampton, Va - Natives of the Virgin Islands, which were acquired by the United States of Denmark in 1917 through purchase, after many years of futile negotiation, are suffering from dire poverty on account of the rapid removal of Danish capital, the heavy inroads on the cotton boll-wheel and the wasteful "mining" of the soil by the extensive and persistent cultivation of sugar cane, according to Frederick MacFarlane, a native of St. Croix, and former instructor. In history, of the Judiciary, senior high school of St. Thomas, who spoke recently in Oden Hall, Hampton Institute, on "The History and Economic Conditions of the Virgin Islands."
Professor MacFarlane has spent the past twelve years in the Virgin Islands. Previously he devoted three years to study in Denmark, where he prepared himself to become a translator in the Danish language. Recently he brought to Hampton Institute three promising, high-school boys from the Virgin Islands. These boys will be educated at Hampton Institute out of the funds which will be raised in the Virgin Islands and among Virgin Islanders living in New York and other large cities. Some of Professor MacFarlane's observations on the Virgin Islands may be summarized as follows:
The Orphan Islands."
Little is known about the Virgin Islands, which were under the control of Denmark for 250 years. The Virgin Islands might be called "orphan islands," since no one burrow of the U.S government cares to assume responsibility for them. The Virgin Islands include about 124 square miles—St. Croix (bought by Denmark of France in 1233), eighty square miles; St. Thomas (taken by Denmark in 1671) and St. John (taken by Denmark in 1683), forty-four square miles.
In 1848 Negro slavery was abolished dramatically in the Virgin Islands. The governor-general, named von Scholten, on July 3, 1848, acting on his own responsibility, declared the slaves free and issued the emancipation proclamation on July 4. In September, 1848, this act of the governor-general was confirmed by the King of Denmark.
In 1841 the Danish government started

Low Wage Brings Suffering.
In the last days of the Danish administration, full-grown men received 25 cents per day for their labor. In 1915 a labor union was organized and in 1916 a six-week strike brought the daily wage of the laborer up to 40 cents. Then the World War carried the daily wage to 96 cents. Now the daily wage of the laboring man has dropped to 40 cents and the laboring man can secure only two days of labor each week. The Virgin Islands lie 80 miles east of Porto Rico and eighteen degrees north of the Equator. The people on these islands are handicapped by their devotion to conventions and traditions, especially in the matter of farming.

(Special to The New York Age). New Orleans, La.-The American Legion, in convention here, voted to hold the 1923 convention in San Francisco from October 15 to 19, inclusive. The Negro question threatens to cause a sectional fight in the convention, although efforts are being made to keep the issue from the floor because a southern city is host to the convention.

POLICE COOPERATION
It should be significant of improve- conditions in Harlem, that there have been signs of appreciation on the part of high police officials of that part played by Lut. And in exposing the vex- lation of law involved in the open sale of liquor and the maintenance of quo- sitionable reports, cooperation has been promised in trying to stop the sale of "bootleg" stuff and in general improvement of the neighborhood reports.
Efforts have been made to discipline the members of the police force who get drunk and disgrace their uniform by their irresponsible conduct while in such a condition. The closing of such resorts as openly violate the law is also plated, together with a vigorous prosecution of the offenders who have flaunted their distance of public sentiment to openly. Public officials seem to have realized in some measure that the majority of the residents of Harlem are decent, lawabiding people, and that the license given to evil doers is presented by the community as a whole.
The action of 1904 Act in giving publicity to the conditions that no afflicted public disease in Haiti is recognized by the officials who have looked into the matter to be bound on facts. Common tarmars to the lawabiding proportion of the community, required that these facts should be seen to clearly and convincingly that none could gateway them. All this was done both in our news and in public, with the result that some of those animals were brought to realize the necessity for looking into the matter. The result of this investigation would bring about an improvement in conditions.
The great trouble has been that the enforcement of prohibition has been made almost impossible, because of the fact that the Volstead act and the Mult-language law are so rigid in their requirements as to deter the possibility of callying them into effect. Public sentiment cannot be长久 upon to support the execution of these laws. The officials who try in good faith to carry them out are few and without support. Many process a compliance with them, who in reality are working to deter their purpose. The chief a compulsion of prohibition and its laityhearted enforcement up to date has been to enrich the "bootleggers ring" and to demoralize the horde of new officials appointed to enforce its drastic provisions.
The intimation that President Harding may take a hand in the prohibition press and call upon Congress to revise and modify the Volstead act, so as to avoid entanglements with foreign nations, is suggestive of an opportunity to correct the whole situation. Instead of seeking to enforce the drastic measure that has so far failed of enforcement, the law should be changed so as to permit the use of beer and light wines. The demand for wholesome beverages would be met by such a measure, while the temptation to use the poisonous compounds now venerated would be removed.
Of course such a modification would be fought by the anti-alcohol banets and the "hootleggers ring." Its adoption would put both these truths out of a lucrative business.
In the measure we may count on the cooperation of the police authorities in stepping the own sale of the villainous bootleg" vended in Harlem.
HE PLAYS STRAIGHT
The strongest reason that could be advanced for the reelection of Representative Martin C. Anlorge to Congress is the fact that he has played straight with its constituents. Coming from a Harlem district that number among its voters a large proportion of the race, Mr. Anlorge has always been mindful of their demands as citizens and voters. In 1920 he was elected to Congress by the largest plurality of any Congressman in Manhattan.
In the Republican State Convention held the same year Mr. Ansorge was a member of the platform committee and offered the resolution for equal rights to all citizens, irrespective of race, creed or color, and for the enforcement of the 15th, 16th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution and condemning lynch law. He introduced anti-lynching bills in Congress and took an active and aggressive part in the fight to pass the Declaration in the House. He exercised a right to name a candidate to the Royal Annales by naming
a colored lad, although his selection failed to secure admission.
All in all, Representative Ansorge has shown himself a fearless and progressive member of Congress, able and willing to serve all his constituents without bias or prejudice. More of his sort are needed in Congress. He should be returned for another term, so that the fact may be made apparent that faithful service is appreciated. The usefulness of a legislator is a thing of slow growth, and if he is capable It is bound to increase with the length of service. It would be a good thing for all the people to return Mr. Ansorge to Congress for another term of useful service.
READ HIS RECORD
Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen has served out one term as representative of the State of New Jersey with general acceptance to the voters. He is now a candidate to succeed himself in the United States Senate, having been nominated by the voters of his party at the primaries. His record is a useful and active legislator is made up and the voters can readily see the reason why he should be reelected.
Apart from his period on general legislation there are special reasons why the colored governors of New Jersey should support Mr. Frelinghuysen. Among those reasons may be his unwilling advocacy of anti-limiting legislation and his active efforts to get the Dyer Bill before the Senate. He has also worked with marked energy in the interest of the Liberian loan and other measures that have been favored by his colored constituents.
Senator Ferdighyensen has been helpful in securing the appointment of members of the race to Federal positions having opened the Internal Revenue Service to colored citizens in his home State. His record as an adnocase of law and order, together with the recognition of his constituents, without distinction of race or color, entitle him to united support in the coming election.
WHY NOT AMERICAN?
A writer in the Wall Street Journal's financial sheet specializing in stocks and bonds and "bulk" and "hears," wandered from the ticker long enough to indulge in a disquisition on what he called "The Melodious African." It read as follows:
Southern business conditions may be poor, the cotton crop may be wretched, but the melodious African on the plantation strums, fiddles and blows to his tuneful racial melodies, in poverty and in plenty.
One of the largest Chicago music houses, selling instruments chiefly by mail finds that 80 per cent of its requests for catalogues comes from south of the Mason and Dixon line and 90 per cent of its orders from the same territory.
Analysis of correspondence indicates that all but an insignificant fraction of the 90 per cent of orders comes from southern Negroes.
Now this article is doubtless well intended and unobjectionable so far, as it states facts, but it would have been far more consistent if it had been braided "The Melodious American" "Colored" or "Black" "it you will, but nevertheless American
The introduction of Negroes into America began early in the life of the colonies and by 1700 the colonists themselves declared slaves "the strength and anewness of this western world." Before the Revolution the total expatriation to America was estimated at between 40,000 and 100,000 each year. The population of 1700 showed 697,807 slaves in the United States. These people from Africa increased and multiplied and rapidly assimilated American civilization as they achieved freedom and opportunity. The customs and manners of their African forefathers became a thing of the past. These colored Americans not only adopted the language and customs of the new land of which they had become an integral part, but they fought in all wars at home and abroad. From Bunker Hill to Flanders Fields. They gave not only their drawn and muscled to its building, but they gave their life and blood to its defence. They also coiled and gave to America the only original music it has produced, not African melodies but American melodies. These racial medias were not born in Africa; they were the result of the reaction of the race to its new world environment. The colored race in the United States, for better or worse, has parted with Africa. The history and traditions of Africa may command the respect and generation due to the ancestors of the centuries, but in all that is vital and living reality the Negro is wholly American. He has absorbed its ideals and its defects, its sordid realities and its glorious visions. He is doing his part to make it better and better every day.
According to a Memphis daily paper rural schools in the county were temporarily closed in September, so that the pupils might go into the fields and pick cotton. The official closing was the method adopted to get around the compulsory attendance law. Whether the period of closing was to be added to the length of the school term did not appear.
The National Alliance of Postal Employees has a membership of 700 colored men, who were denied admittance to the regular organization of white railway postal clerks. The alliance has assets of $20,000, it is stated, and its benefits compare favorably with those offered by the white organization. It is proposed to extend the membership to all colored postal employees with the hope to attain the total of 25,000 members.
THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1922
EXTRA SESSION PROBABLE.
Washington dispatches of October 11 state that President Harding will call an extra session, be convened on November 20, for the purpose of Ship Subsidy Bill. These dispatches also state that he is wrestling with the Ship Subsidy Bill the Senate to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
The Washington correspondent of the New York "World" has all along been opposed to the measure—declares that the Anti-Lynching Bill was House on the distinct understanding that it would Senate, but that such strong political pressure was colored people that it became necessary for the Repeal to give positive pledges that the Dyer Bill would vote early in the next session. The "World" declares that with the influence of the President to receive the requisite number of votes.
These Washington dispatches are, without doubt, the administration and by the Republican leaders. Therefore, they may be taken as a pretty sure sign the Republican party is now fully awake to the vital importance of Anti-Lynching Bill.
When Republican senators got home after the moment of Congress they found out that what had about the sentiment of colored voters regarding the bill was only too true, and there have undoubtedly carried and earnest communications between various home and the administration forces in Washington.
We know that except for a small number of Democrats and Republicans in the Upper House did not wish this measure. They considered it hot at both ends, wanted to take it up and pass it or to take it up as a result of the President calls this special session of Congress is busy for two or three weeks on the Ship here is nothing else for the Senate to do but to take Lynching Bill for consideration.
The colored people of the country, and all who have this great fight for human rights, must now bring their energies to put the Dyer Bill over when it is considered. The cooperation of the colored fundamental issue, the first great fundamental issue of Negroes that has been before Congress's Rights Bill, has been magnificent. This united effort colored people have made on the question of Lynching that it has cost in energy and money, because it has least, partially aware of their group strength.
Colored organizations, secular, fraternal and religious people, and the colored press, have put up a widespread colored newspapers have belittled these efforts will suffer when the fight is wont; and we are the fighter is earnestly continued for just a little while I will be won.
The way to continue the fight just now is for Congress to come elections to vote against those men or, whether they be Republicans or Democrats, to those in favor of the Bill, regardless of party affidavitally should they be able to exert their strength possible, to defeat those Republicans who voted against the House, and thus serve notice on the Party that now on intends to use the ballot with some do not serve.
Washington dispatches of October 11 state it is probable that President Harding will call an extra session of Congress to be convened on November 20, for the purpose of taking up the Ship Subsidy Bill. These dispatches also state that while the House is wrestling with the Ship Subsidy Bill the Senate will be expected to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
The Washington correspondent of the New oYrk "World" and the "World" has all along been opposed to the Anti-Lynching measure—declares that the Anti-Lynching Bill was passed in the House on the distinct understanding that it would be killed in the Senate, but that such strong political pressure was exerted by the colored people that it became necessary for the Republican leaders to give positive pledges that the Dyer Bill would be brought to a vote early in the next session. The "World" correspondent also declares that with the influence of the President the Bill will receive the requisite number of votes.
These, Washington dispatches are, without doubt, inspired by the administration and by the Republican leaders in the Senate. Therefore, they may be taken as a pretty sure sign that the Republican party is now fully awake to the vital importance of the Anti-Lynching Bill.
When Republican senators got home after the recent adjournment of Congress they found out that what had been told them about the sentiment of colored voters regarding the Anti-Lynching Bill was only too true, and there have undoubtedly been some hurried and earnest communications between various senators at home and the administration forces in Washington.
We know that except for a small number of Republican senators and Republicans in the Upper House did not wish to take up this measure. They considered it hot at both ends; that is, they feared to take it up and pass it or to take it up and not pass it. But if the President calls this special session of Congress and the House is busy for two or three weeks on the Ship Subsidy Bill, there is nothing else for the Senate to do but to take up the Anti-Lynching Bill for consideration.
The colored people of the country, and all who are interested in this great fight for human rights, must now bring together all of their energies to put the Dyer Bill over when it is taken up for consideration. The cooperation of the colored people on this fundamental issue, the first great fundamental issue touching the rights of Negroes that has been before Congress since the Civil Rights Bill, has been magnificent. This united effort which the colored people have made on the question of lynching is worth all that it has cost in energy and money, because it has made them, at least, partially aware of their group strength.
Colored organizations, secular, fraternal and religious; the colored people, and the colored press, have put up a wonderful fight. Several colored newspapers have belittled these efforts, but they alone will suffer when the fight is won; and we are confident that if the fight is earnestly continued for just a little while longer, it will be won.
The way to continue the fight just now is for colored citizens in the coming elections to vote against those men opposed to the Bill, whether they be Republicans or Democrats, and to vote for those in favor of the Bill, regardless of party affiliations. Especially should they be able to exert their strength, wherever it is possible, to defeat those Republicans who voted against the Bill in the House, and thus serve notice on the Party that the Negro from now on intends to use the ballot with some degree of common sense.
AGAIN ABOUT BOOKS
We take up again the talk about books. Last week we recommended a good dictionary of language as the first book to be secured by those who want worth while reading. Spanish, Italian, and many readers may be able to get along without much difficulty, but it is impossible for readers of English to do. Under all reading there must be a broad foundation, a great many books which cannot be appreciated only by a reader who has not this foundation. This consist of a fairly clear and comprehensive idea of the human world.
Last week we recommended a good dictionary of the English language as the first book to be secured by those who decide to take no worth while reading. Spanish, Italian, and perhaps even French readers may be able to get along without much of a dictionary, but it is impossible for readers of English to do so.
Under all reading there must be a broad foundation. There are a great many books which cannot be appreciated or even understood by a reader who has not this foundation. This foundation should consist of a fairly clear and comprehensive idea of the whole experience of the human urge from its earliest beginnings down to the present. Thus, perhaps sounds discouraging to begin with but actually it is not so discouraging as it sounds. This comprehensive idea of all human experience does not imply exact and exhaustive information on every branch of human knowledge, but it does mean the power to classify all human knowledge, the ability to tell into which branch of knowledge certain facts fall. It means the possession of at least the keys to all branches of knowledge and knowing which locks the various keys fit.
This is the sort of knowledge which the college and the university seek to give. It is the foundation upon which the acquisition of vast knowledge in any particular field is built. The person who has laid this foundation is known as an educated, or cultured, person.
But this state of education, or culture is not the end; it is merely the beginning; that is, a person must be educated, or cultured, before he can really begin to learn. The supposition that an education is the end of knowledge has been a mistake made by a great many college and university graduates. They have felt that a diploma signified that they were already in possession of the sum total of human knowledge, wherein, actually, the diploma meant that they had just reached the state at which to begin acquiring it; that they had merely been given the keys, that open the storehouses of the various branches of knowledge.
Now, for those who have never had the opportunity of going to college or even to high school—the possession of these keys does not necessarily depend upon going through any institution of learning. Many a person who has never seen the inside of a college or of a high school is in possession of them. Any man or woman with a fair degree of intelligence and a sufficient amount of application and determination may lay this broad foundation, may come into the possession of the keys of knowledge, in fact, may become educated, without working for an A. B., or a Ph. D.
The best way to do this is through reading; and I would here recommend two sets of books, through the reading of which anyone may lay himself the broad foundation upon which all human knowledge is based. These two sets of books are "The Outline of History," by H. G. Wells, and "The Outline of Science," by Professor J. Arthur Thompson.
I have already written in these columns something about "The Outline of History." In "The Outline of History" the human race is traced from its earliest beginnings. There is given a comprehensive summary of all the vitally important experiences of the race for the past ten thousand years. This knowledge of the
past is not only valuable in itself, but it gives the necessary background for a fuller understanding of what is taking place in the world i nour own age. And the book is easy reading; in fact, it is far more interesting than the average novel.
"The Outline of Science" is a latter work. Its author is Professor of Natural History in the University of Aberdeen. "The Outline of Science covers every branch of scientific knowledge in a manner that can be understood by the man in the street. In fact, anyone who reads it through will gain sound information regarding every field of scientific knowledge in which the human mind is working. This work also is written in a style that makes it read like a romance.
"The Outline of History" was originally published in two volumes. Since then it has been put out in a single volume, the price of which is five dollars; but those who cannot purchase it may get the use of it in any good public library.
"The Outline of Science" is published in four volumes and is a great deal more expensive than "The Outline of History." The price of the four volumes is at present eighteen dollars. I am not sure that it can yet be secured in public libraries; but the books are well worth the money. In places where they cannot be secured in public libraries, and individual readers do not feel that they can afford them, I suggest that clubs of four persons be formed to buy the four volumes and pass them around from one to the other.
MISS ROSE'S STATEMENT
In last week's issue of the 135th Street Branch of the statement in which she said "Public Libraries" was based port of the round table on meeting of the American Library "Library Journal."

Report itself, there could be no misunderstandings but as plain as English words could make it, the following paragraph:

Quotation from Miss Rose's report we fail to sense of protest against segregation, nor did in any other part of her report. The only prerequisite those made by Miss Rice of Chicago, that the Chicago Public Library had no problem in separate branches were considered, and Ms. Rochester, New York, who said there was no at city.
Me with Miss Rose when she says that group is part of the work of librarians, according to which they are located; and by group service that the libraries should provide the kind of people of the community naturally want to readily interests them. Of course, this is true. Readers at the 135th Street Branch want to read or "The Souls of Black Folk" or "Batouala," see that these books are on the shelves. But matter of the catalog and calls for no special library or its policies.
Agree with any idea that either Jews, or Italy, are any special sort of a library, for any special service carries the idea of limitation. No one has the power to decide what source of knowledge to a community.
Public libraries is not a problem in New York, problem it may be in Birmingham, Ala. And a charge of a Birmingham library. We are decoration that her true attitude was not exaggerated, and that she is opposed to segregation.
In last week's issue of The Age Miss Rose, the librarian of the 135th Street Branch of the New York Public Library, made a statement in which she said that our article on "Segregation in Public Libraries" was based upon a misunderstanding of her report of the round table on "Work with Negroes" at the annual meeting of the American Library Association, as published in the "Library Journal."
It may be that the report as published in the "Library Journal" did not accurately express Miss Rose's attitude on this question. That, however, is Miss Rose's misfortune, if not her own fault, because the report was printed over her signature as chairman.
As for the report itself, there could be no misunderstanding of it. It was about as plain as English words could make it. In this report occurs the following paragraph:
"Miss Rose spoke of the North coming rapidly to a problem similar to that in the South. In New York the 153rd Street Library 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. Negregation will be a large problem for the North to solve, although it is not yet realized in most quarters."
In her statement Miss Rose says that at the round table she had "two sets of auditors, southern librarians who believed in special library service for Negroes but who were absolutely certain that this could only be furnished in segregated libraries," and "northern librarians who were only partially awake to the demands of Negro constituents of their libraries but who, when they did awaken, were liable to assume without question that Negro patrons could only be adequately served in segregated Negro branches."
Miss Rose further states that she met great opposition, particularly from the South, because of her stand.
In the above quotation from Miss Rose's report we fail to discern the slightest sense of protest against segregation, nor do we find it expressed in any other part of her report. The only protests we notice were those made by Miss Rice of Chicago, who said that she felt that the Chicago Public Library had no problems to discuss and no separate branches were considered, and Mr. William F. Yost of Rochester, New York, who said there was no race problem in that city.
We fully agree with Miss Rose when she says that group service should be a part of the work of librarians, according to the communities in which they are located; and by group service she says she means that the libraries should provide the kind of literature that the people of the community naturally want to read and which particularly interests them. Of course, this is true. If a large number of readers at the 135th Street Branch want to read "Up From Slavery," or "The Souls of Black Folk," or "Batouala," the librarian should see that these books are on the shelves. But that is merely a matter of the catalog and calls for no special reorganization of the library or its policies.
But we do not agree with any idea that either Jews, or Italians, or Negroes require any special sort of a library, for any special sort of a library at once carries the idea of limitation. No one has the right or should have the power to decide what source of knowledge should be open to a community.
Segregation in public libraries is not a problem in New York, however great a problem it may be in Birmingham, Ala. And Miss Rose is not in charge of a Birmingham library. We are glad to have her declaration that her true attitude was not expressed in her report, and that she is opposed to segregation
Zoe Banks' Corner is a department on the New York Literary Mall, in which frequently appear word etching on the paging show, which illuminate some phase of the problem of human existence. In fact it might be termed a repository of human documents, in that did not sound too stilted. At once rate, last week there appeared in her column a little story which might point a moral and sugar coat a lesson for the dependent. While a trifle lengthy it is well worth reproducing here.
Rachel Rux is private secretary to Ruth Tayler, of White Plains, candidate on the Republican ticket for judge of the Children's Court. Miss Taylor, everybody thinks, will be elected—first judginghip given to a woman in New York State.
Miss Taylor, if elected, hopes to keep Miss Rux as her secretary because she is the last one she ever had. Miss Rux is a colored girl.
She won a lot of prizes in her grammar school. She went to high, and was graduated with honors. She took up shorthand and secretarial work and several classical courses, shining rather brightly in all.
Then she started to get a job. People talked to her nicely over the telephone. Asked her to call. Look surprised. Took her name and address and politely promised to "let her know." Months and months went by. One day Miss Taylor, head of the Child Welfare Department, made it known she wanted an assistant. Rachel Rux applied—over the telephone. Everything seemed: we. Then Miss Rux took a deep breath and said, "Just a moment, please—I'm a colored girl," and held on to her nerves, waiting.
DOING THINGS BETTER
"What of it?" came the voice over the wire.
"You really wouldn't let it stand in the way of employing me!" incredulity and joy mixed in the tone.
"Come tomorrow at 9 and take the test" said Miss Taylor "Being able to do the work is all that matters."
Which reminds us of two things. One is that the New York postoffice announced the other day that its quickest mail clerk is a colored girl. The other is that a young Negro woman in Raleigh, N.C. once said to me.
"The only way a colored girl or man can get along in anything worth while is to do that thing better than a white person can."
The direct application of this story is in the lesson that worth while results may be achieved by members of the race, through doing things better. In order to attain this degree of excellence in any trade or profession, diligence in study and persistence in practice are necessary. Excellence is not secured in any branch of labor or art without sustained effort. Whether the task assigned us be to keep books or to raise poultry, to paint pictures or to lay carpets, let us strive to do it to the best of our ability.
The striving for the attainment of excellence in any avenue of industry is the best way of making life worth living. It keeps cobwebs from the brain and makes strong men and women.
CHALLENGE OF CULTURE
CHALLENGE TO THE KU KLUX.
The Fayetteville, N. C., Observer recently published an open letter over the signature of J. R. Harrison in which he challenged the Ku Klux Klan of that city to show me one act they have
committed that wasn't common and violation of the National and law." The writer stated that he proached last Fall by one who claimed to be the organist Klan. After thirty minutes of the Catholic Jew, Negro and this organizer asked for his arrest. Mr. Harrison says he conceived seriously, but came to the conclusion that it was Bolshevism from finish. He asks why the organization's mission is to design ashamed for people to know are. He also refers to the report on the streets of Fayetteville damnable disgrace to our town was apparently a parade, in which taking part appeared when covered.
But Mr. Harrison did not give this denunciation of the marked man. He made this bold suggestion.
Now in conclusion you can see that 400 strong in Fayetteville, I am a single man that makes this suggestion to you. Thursday night is your ing night. After your meeting the day night you take me out and me a good whipping. Now do cowards and take as you do Minister of the Gospel over at Lafayetteburg, N. C., who refused your "We will see you later." I am sure that you can overpower me and what you want to do, but please men one time and take me the day night and do what you are going to do or admit to the public of Fayetteville that you are 400 cowardly ours.
Evidently the Klan has not a white men of North Carolina faled; when one of them uttered open defiance as this. Those young men of an Eastern city a Klan organizer make monkeys of them at their annual dinner, the love heart again.
Instancing the fact that not a shee string could be purchased in black belts of Cleveland during the abration of Yom Kippur, the Jew in Year, the Cleveland Call said.
With several business associates within our midst whose efforts are aimed to be directed to promote bigger and better business among Cleveland centered business men this condition is amusing.
One reason why there is so little cooperation on the part of these white business associations to help further Negro business in this vicinity is due to the fact that socalled leaders of our group hold up these organizations to satisfy their own egoism which leads to selfish and "You'll find that the people of Cleveland are CLANNISH," was a remark made by a local business man a few weeks ago. We do not doubt this statement. This man is a failure.
There is a foregoing conclusion that there is something wrong with Black business in Cleveland "Clannish," and when a Jewish holiday comes around, the city is in darkness and the race stumbles about from place to place in search of the small things of life due to the lack of colored business in a district of 20,000 black men and women.
This is a field that would test the efficiency of the plans of the National Negro Business League to install the star of business enterprise in barren places. An intensive campaign of business propaganda is evidently needed.
The mango is one of the truest of the tropics which has also been cultivated with success in Florida. A recent development of this lucrative product is described in the Christian Science Monitor as follows:
Herkiah Brooks, Negro gardner and fruit grower of Miami, recently announced the successful conclusion of his attempts to produce a new variety of mango. The result is described as a gap in the trot calendar of this tradition because he claims, the fruit must between November and January, a control during which the mango is not to be found in the market.
The Brooks mango is similar to the Mugloba in appearance and texture it is declared to be superior to the trinity in flavor. Some experts proclaim it a cross of the Mugloba and Sanguine.
If this new variety is marked by a reduction in the size of the pit, it will the elimination of the strings which turpentinish flavor, the Brooks mango may prove to be a fruit that can be summed in comfort outside the halls.
The Dallas Express noted the appearance of a news item in an observer of a Texas daily, which stated that the chief of police, one of his assistants and three other citizens were expected to be arrested in connection with the lynching of a Negro, which occurred several months ago. It asked.
Does this mean that Texas is from her lethargy and making real help "wipe the stain of barbarian" from her banners? Or does that the public will again be treated the spectacle of "whitewashing" commonly seen in such cases? We have anxiously awaited some indications of a genuine desire to end the real barbarian and anarchy, as evidenced by the numerous lynchings which have curred within her borders and gone unpunished, have long since learned that such reports are not to be made on basis for any high hopes. As yet hopes have never been realized nor proven justified.
But in spite of the attempts at outrage, the nation, and Texas as a result of it will eventually realize that barbarian does not pay. It punishes the process of law does not follow outrages, the harvest must be treated increased lawlessness and more growth of mob mind.
The conclusion reached by the editor is confirmed by the fact that violence is no longer confined lines in his state. The mob as crises in the Ku Klux Klan attacks back
{IRE NEW TORK AOE: LATURDAY, OCTOBER 21. 1927
Group assembled in a theatre’ or concert hall js attracted ta that
place by s6me element of personal curiosity. That there is a heal-
thy benefit to be gained by this: ‘‘personal curiogity” is also true.
In the first place, it contributes to the financial sutcess of an artis-
tic endeavor, because it creates an additional clientefe. Then it
reacts to the good of the curiosity seeker, because it provides an
opportunity for-cultural development which otherwise would not
be taken advantage of. © 7
~--A-tundamental necessity for proper “and intelligent apprecia-
tion of any artistic effort is a knowledge of what is being done.
Ignorance is a handicap which cannot, be overcome, It must be
eliminated. Frequent contact with a particular subject compels
one to learn something of its quality, whether good or bad. But
& proper appreciation of the best in any line of endeavor must be
preceded by study of correct form and structure, and to the great
masses of any people the only school available in dramatic and
music art ia the theatre and concert hall.
And so, whatever may be the impelling motive in the begin-
ning, constant hearing of the best in drama and music will event-
ually lead to intelligent comprehension and proper appreciation.
. Incidentally, it must be noted that this column made no com-
parison of the Negro's artistic appreciation in relation to that of
the white man, not even inferentially, because in the consider-
ation of the matter attention was given solely to what had been
charged as a racial lack on part of the Negro, and it was believed
that this deficient clement could only be supplied by intensive
cultivation within the race. However, the drawing of comparisons
by Miss Rumford do not detract from the interest generated by
her observations.
As compared with the white race, and in proportion th relative
group numbers, fhe Negro race would Got be found lacking in
proper dramatic.or music appreciation to a disgraceful degree, but
unfortunately the size of these groups is not considered when
other groups, largely outnumbering them, give evidence of their
lack of comprehension of dramatic or music values.

Taking up the matter of dramatic appreciation more in detail,
Mi. Rumford wrote as follows:
“is is quite true. a3 you point out. that the Lafayette Players did

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS
Battling Siki Has Stirred A Tempest in Boxing Ranks
Report That He Will Abrogate Contract to Fight Kid Norfolk in New York on Nov. 30 Arouses Tex Rickard to Cable Protests --Dispatches Say Siki Will Fight Joe Beckett in London on Nov. 23.
According to an Associated Press dispatch sent out from Paris on October 15, Battling Siki and his manager, M. Hellers, have signed a contract to fight Joe Beckett for the heavyweight championship of Europe in London on November 23. By this agreement, it was said that Siki would receive 50 pounds ($22,000) as his end of the purse.
The conqueror of Georges Carpentier was under contract to fight Kid Norfolk in New York a week later, on November 30, the announcement of the fight with Beckett in London was generally interpreted to mean that he had decided to break his contract with Rickard for a fight with Kid Norfolk and would not come to this country—at least not this year.
After sending the cablegram, Rickard made the following statement:
"I don't know whether there is any truth in these stories from Paris or not, but I am taking no chances. I just want to inform Murice Hellers and Mr. Siki that the cabies exchanged between us constitute a legal contract. The contract
When Tex Rickard read the newspaper reports about Sika breaking his contract with him to fight here on November 30, he penned a forceful cable to Siki's manager in which he warned him that unless the Senagelese fighter lived up to the cable agreement he had reached with the Madison Square Garden management every possible step would be taken to prevent him from securing a match in this country or in Canada.

an excellent audience. The Lafayette Theater this week headed by Green and Burrette, the two bad carrier comedians of "Siren Miss Lazzie," and the Justa and Marshall Company. The outrage of the famous opera song by Green and Burrette, and their singing and dancing received the biggest applause of anything on the bill. The dancing of Miss Justa and the members of the Justa and Marshall company were also outstanding numbers. Gulport and Brown received a big welcome to Harlem as did Alberta Hunter in her first appearance in New York. The other acts on the program were the three Mellfords, Yoko Duo, "The Bridal Suite," and Grinding a Woman to Pieces. All of the acts went over big at the opening performance, and the show is one of the best avudeville shows that can be seen in Harlem this week.
Next week, the management of this theatre will present a musical comedy rescue, "Laffin Thru 1922". This attraction was staged by S. W. Manheim and W. J. Vail ad has a cast which includes George Shelton, Rose Allen, Al Belasco, Al Golden, Collette Pattie and others.
GREENSBORO DEFEATS
RALEIGH IN TENNIS
(Special to The New York Age).
Greensboro, N. C.-The Greensboro
tennis teams defeated the Raleigh ten-
nies teams on the former's tennis courts
Friday. September 15. Each match
was well played and hard fought. The
scores were as follows:
Stewart and Trigg of Greensboro
defeated Evans and Rogers of Raleigh,
6-3, 7-9 and 6-2, respectively. Huntley
and Waddy of Greensboro defeated
Rogers and Hamlin of Kaleigh 6-2, 4-6,
10-8. Caldwell and Stewart of Greensboro
defeated Hamlin and Rogers in the
one, set played, 8-6.
At the close of the tournament-
delightful refreshments were served at the
home of Moe. W. H. McNeil, and dinner
was served at the home of Dr. C.
C. Stewart.
THE NEW YORK AGE SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1932
a fight in this country until he lives up to his agreement with me."
The reports from Europe said that Siki was confident of beating Beckett, and that he considered the next step would be a match with Dempsey for the world's heavyweight championship. Dempsey is amenable to the regulations of the New York Boxing Commission and that organization has a wide spread working agreement with the boxing authorities or the rest of the country. There is no doubt that the local commission would take the stand that Siki must fight for Rickard or not at all, in this state, and most of the other states where boxing is permitted would undoubtedly follow suit.
The amount of cash that Siki can get for fighting the mediocre heavyweights and light heavyweights of Europe would be but a drop in the bucket to what he can draw in this country it he has the ability that his victory over Carpenter would seem to indicate. The stories of alleged repudiation of his contract to fight here is taken by the local tans to indicate that he is a flash and will not measure up to the class of the American heavyweights.
LINCOLN GIANTS WIN IN DOUBLE HEADER
The Lincoln Giants won both games at Protectory Oval on Sunday, October 14, when they defeated the Fire Department nine by a score of 5-4, and the Recreation A.C. of Plainfield, N.J., by a score of 4-1. The second agame had to be called in the sixth timing because of darkness. The battles in the first game against the Lepremen were Marshall and Gatewood for Lincoln and Marshall and Dempsey for the Lepremen. In the other game the lotteries were: Joe Williams and Wiley for the Lincoln and Congrass and Hahn for Recreation. About five thousand people witnessed the agame.

"LION IS SYMBOL
FOR LINCOLN TEAM
(Special to The New York Age.
Lincoln University, Pa. Last Spring,
as school days were waning, the question of mascots among Negro colleges and universities was considered among the students here. At that time, the students were opposed to selecting "tawny mane" as the living symbol of the athletic prowess and achievements of Lincoln. Certain student, however, were determined that our schools and Lincoln in particular, should have some animal which could be placed in songs and yells, which would look snappy upon pennants and learners, and, in addition, add class and rest to the warriors upon the field of battle.
At a mass meeting that fall the master of massasau came up against T. Full, typhlying ringguided me, chilling and beastly terror was suppressed. The "king of the bird" had a lute following, especially of Sophonius, but he lacked sufficient oxyz to become the choice of the college roster. Following the rejection of the bull, a long list of animals were presented, including the bear, the gun, the lion, the panther the eagle, the bat, the shark, the buffalo, and the lion again. An ingenuous, Senior and head coach leader, W. Harold Webb, sketched a huge, ferocious lion and showed that by mangifying the first, second, ninth and seventh letters of the word Lincoln, thus—LinOLN—the word lion would be clearly seen in the word Lincoln. When this was done and the natural qualities of the King of all Beasts were lauded the students overwhelmingly selected the lion as the mascot of Lincoln University. Already there is a general call for pennant with the smashing lion upon it.
In the Autumn Football Classic at Washington on Thanksgiving Day the Orange and Blue of Lincoln will be doubly recognized by the appearance of this mascot in big time fashion. The squad is zealously preparing for this and other frays.

Crusaders, under leadership of Mrs. Fenwicke, wife of the pastor, held a mass meeting to hear the work of the organization and discuss the best possible way to make the movement effective. Mrs. Fenwicke presided and Rev. E. A. U. Brooks of Auburn offered prayer. An ex-soldier, who saw service in France, introduced Mrs. Helen Curtis, field agent who told of the work of the Antitrenching Crusaders, which had its beginning in her summer home at Paterson, N. J. Mrs. Curtis explained that one hundred cents of every dollar raised will go to the Guaranty Trust Co. New York, custodian of the fund, to be used for legislative purposes only. The key women of Saratoga Springs are Meydames Marshall, Slown, Walker, Heath, Davis, Taylor, Coleman and Palkington. An after collection on $11.50 was given Mrs. Curtis for expenses.
Rochester heard Mrs. Curtis on Thursday evening at Mr. Olivet Baptist Church, Rev. J. F. Rose, pastor. The building was packed to the doors. Rev. J. L. Rose, pastor, provided. Key women in Rochester are Meddames Cotton, Rose, Barke, Ball, Taylor, Wilson and Mrs. Carpenter. Collection for expenses, $22.67.
At Syracuse Mrs. Curtis met an audience at the Protestant Episcopal Church, Mrs. Helen Scott, presiding. Mrs. E. Lippins and Mrs. C. Johnson are tendering valuable service.

HOWARD DOWNS VA
SEMY IN INITIAL GAME
(Special to The New York Age)
Washington, D.C. Howard University
was the initial football game of
the game against Virginia Theological
Summer and College Lynchburg, Va.
in a one-on-one. A large and enthusiastic crowd witnessed the game, as much
interest as being centered in the "blue
and white" clash which is to meet Lincoln
University on Thanksgiving Day
in the "Football Classic of the year" to
be played at the American League Park,
Washington, D.C.
Howard secured its score in the second
quarter after getting far down into
the "Theologi" territory by blocking a
kick which was recovered by a Howard
man and followed by a couple of line
plunges and the use of a short forward
pass for a touchdown. A forward pass
was attempted for the extra point but
the effort failed.
In the third and fourth quarters Howard kept in the territory of the "Theology" and a number of times threatened their goal. The plucky Virginian fought hard and held the "white and blue" eleven from scoring again during the game.
While the first game's result's were not as one-sided as was expected by the Howard supporters, none the less confidence is expressed in the belief that the Howard warriors will be successful throughout the season.
Main Bout Fighters At 369th Armory Do Poorly
Wee Wee Barton Warned For Not Fighting and Opponent Not in Condition-Best Fight Was Semi Final Between Sinclair and Murray
Wee Wee Barton of the 369th Infantry was awarded the judge's decision over Johnny Lustig of the Naval Militia in a slow ten round bout at the 15th Armory on Friday night, October 13, though Barton outpointed his opponent in every round, the Lustig was very unsatisfactory from the spectator's point of view, as Barton did not appear to be doing his best and was warned several times by the referee for not fighting. His opponent was fat and slow, and had Barton fought as he can fight, he should have won by a knockout before the fight had gone five rounds. The weights were. Barton 145 and Lustig 147.
The best bout of the evening was the semi-final bout of ten rounds in which Willie Sinclair of the 369th won a close decision over Charlie Murray of the 102nd Regiment. Murray carried a hefty punch which made Sinclair over cautious in the early rounds of the fight. In the last three rounds of the fight, Sinclair made his opponent miss continually and outpointed him by a wide margin. Because of Murray's lead in the early rounds many of the spectators were of the opinion that he should have been given a draw. The writer also felt that this bout was a good draw, as Sinclair's margin of points was so small that it would appear to outsiders that the judges were favoring the local fighters, which would serve to discourage white fighters from fighting at this armory. For the satisfaction of Murray and his followers, it would be a good thing if these fighters were matched for a return bout. Their weights were anounced as Murray 141½ pounds, and Sinclair 136½.
Tom Jackson of the 369th scored a knockout over Frankie Chipp of the 47th in the second round of a scheduled six round preliminary bout. In the first four-round preliminary, Manhattan Kid of the 369th scored a knockout in the first round over Sammy Dobbins, and in the other preliminary bout, Terry Sands of the Naval Militia lost a judges' decision to Battling Powell of the 369th. Both are lightweights.
To eliminate as far as possible any chance of favoritism on the part of the judges, Matchmaker Moore has decided not to select these officials until just before the fight. This policy was inaugurated on Friday night when W. E. Clark acted as one of the judges in place of William White. One or both of the judges will be changed each week. All of the bouts were refereed by Barney Williams.
All future bouts at this armory will be held on Tuesday nights instead of on Friday nights as they have in the past.

KNOCKOUTS FEATURE
15TH ARMORY BOUTS
The first Tuesday night boxing show at the 15th Armory, held Tuesday night October 17, was featured by knockouts in four of the six bouts. The main bout of the evening between Charlie Picker and Johnny Coleman for the welterweight championship of the National Guard resulted in Coleman being knocked out in 49 seconds after the bout started. Apparently Coleman was afraid of the champion and never hit a good blow. Picker brought a large and noisy crowd of rooters with him, who made a big demonstration for him at the end of the fight. His weight was 148 pounds and that of Coleman 149
Little Jack Johnson of the 369th Infantry did not go through with his bout with Terry Davis of the 100nd Regiment, and Danny Lyons had to be substituted in his place. Lyons made an aggressive fight and was awarded the judge's decision on points. The bout went only six rounds instead of the ten as scheduled. Both fighters weighed 127 pounds.
An extra bout was added to the bill because of the shortness of the preliminaries. In this extra bout Tommy Jackson of the 369th was awarded
judges' decision over Panama Billy Walker, a member of the same regiment after six rounds of fast fighting. Walker's legs seem to have gone bad, as he was pulled down and knocked down several times during the fight. He came back each time, however, and fought gamely until the end.
Larry Estridge's opponent failed to show up, and Tommy Hansom was substituted in his place. Hansom lasted less than a round against the former middle weight champion, and went down for the count on what appeared to be a light blow. In another of the preliminaries Satisfaction Brooks of the 369th was knocked out in the third round of a scheduled four-round bout by Bubba Gram of the 102nd Regiment. Brooks has a habit of quitting when fighters get too tough for him, but was foiled in an attempt to quit on Tuesday night. In the second round he received several good blows and went down with theention of being counted out, but the round ended before the full count was given. So he had to come back in the next round and receive a real knockout blow. The other preliminary bout was stopped in the second round because Jerry Bernard of the Navy injured his hand. The decision was awarded to Manhattan Kid, his opponent.
The Sword of the Spirit
Written for THE NEW YORK ACADEMY by the Author of "Gandhi as America"
"I'm to be published in December, 1922, and a Monograph on Gandhi
has been published in India. Miss Watson is recognised as an authority
in India."
IN TWO PARTS—PART 2)
many another, at that time saw in the war a struggle for determination of all peoples—in the weaker and the subjugation—and in every way conceived with it, with the constant be it did) he tried to operate with the government, to that India might receive the real luxury in the shape of Home which was the limit of their desire that time. For this, Gandhi declared his penitence; and says he been well punished for his mis-
representing the British Government, a machine gun on a peace-gathering of men, women and children about the thousand of them. This incident heretofore with the infamous Rowlatt which made it a crime for any work for national independence actually aroused the hitherto inactive people. There is no doubt but what it made the people willing than they might have been taking into consideration the fact that the 217,000,000 practically Hinckley accede to Gandhi's request that work for her independence by her rather than military methods, not them the absolute helplessness of the hands of inefficient, egistic, rusty, officials whose usurpation of much power goes unrestrained or at times unbaked by the government they were not. The press of the always against the oppressed men in the side of the privilege—help them keep the news of Amritsar from going out for a matter of nine months, although during all that time guarded references were being made to "upstages of 'rebels'" in India, harbours the best and general unrest. The wave of indignation and horror that I saw this massacre bore. Gandhi
increst to a place of prestige and power, never before attained, by any political leader in India—perhaps by any leader in the history of world Home Rule gave way to the cry for Surajyā: Self-Government; the Hindus joined with their Mohammed brothers in the demand that the Kifatif wrongs he righted and Muslim integrity restored, while Mohammedans joined in demanding redress for the crime of the Punjab. When Gandhi came before the monaster gathering held in Nagpur December, 1920, with his program for a peaceful campaign for the achievement of Sahara—with the plan for the scott of all British activities in India—all but two of the 43,000 delegates commemorating more than 300 millions of people voted in favor of it, and the greatest and strangest revolution in the history of the world was on!
Gandhi's theories have indeed worked. His mistakes have been few—and one may use the seemingly paradoxical phrase, they too have worked, and to the advantage of the movement, a man who says that he would rather be right with God" though that mistaking with all his friends; who treats and apparently receives, divine grace; who is not afraid to retrace his steps when he finds that his suspicions are weakening—such a man can succeed in the end.
Gandhi's arrest in March was exaggerated by the upholders of military power to cause rises of blood. So well be the people—the "soldiers" of peace trained by their painstaking leadership that this event was received in pervasive all over great India; the instances of violence were negligible and ineffective. The masses cried and are still obeying Gandhi's administration—given on the eve of his going to jail—to work hard and carry out the non-program program with regularity of close work and the kind of the Punjab express."

the head of the Punjab Provincial
conference in his Presidential address,
much vaunted and carefully guarded
image of the first president of India,
to more to rise again
to our minds and exact help

All India is saying to-day with Mrs. C. C. Day, the president of the Bengal International Congress:
"We have to forsake all our weaknesses. Come to-day Bene gale-let us lift up the national inner. Let us unfulg the national flag in the name of Bengal, and in the name of God conquer all tears."
All over the land the message of Evaray has been carried to every heart and home. Everyone, be he Moderate, be he Extremist, considers Self-Government as indispensable for India to be able to to her full stature and take the rightful place among the nations of the work on a footing of equality. It: Leader of Allahabad—not an extremist organ by any manner of means but the situation well. It says:
We used to be told in the old Congress days that the educated masses did not represent the masses in that the masses were too passive and too ignorant to care for politics, and regarded the British as their trusted leaders. The scene is change in the vast depth of immobility heaving with life. Where is that sun now? It has melted at the non-operators' touch like snow before the sun of June. The lesson itself reliance has gone home and the whole nation has been taught what it would have, it will have to give for and that nothing is worth having which has not been won by one's own efforts."
This, the Indians submit is success! But IS Swaraj! But the end is not yet. What the Indians have agained by non-voluntary co-operation they must hold on.
by the 'continued use of the weapon that has proved its worth, till the enemy realises and admits that, it is beaten. The least letting up of the boycott, the slightest change in the atmosphere of the non-violence necessary for the effective use of that weapon, and the battle for freedom is lost.
Will the ranks of the non-cooperators be strengthened in the months to come as they have been strengthened steadily since the arrest of their leader? Will they hold fast to their principles in the greater struggle that is ahead of them, when deprived of the inspiration and the living presence of their beloved Mahatmaji, seeing other equally consecrated leaders ever being taken from their midst—they feel the screws of oppression tightening and the current apparently running the wrong way. Let us watch India for it is not too much to say that on the answer to these questions hangs the future, not only of great India, but of all mankind, for the peace of the world is bound up in this movement for the liberty of one-fifth of the human race. There can be no peace as long as these people are enslaved.
There can be no disarmament, "no real democracy, no internationalism! But think of what victory would mean! The outlawing of physical force in every field, the fulfillment of Christ's words (so long mis-interpreted) "turn the other cheek," and the saving of future humanity from that terrible God, Moloch, who takes his toll of the finest and best of the men of the race, says his fell hand upon the children, and reaches into the future—even unto the fourth generation.
And India free would mean, must mean—a free world! Gandhi's leadership will pass on to his people—a leadership which shall point the way toward universal brotherhood.
"My Life,"—says Gandhi, "is through the religion of non-violence world my religion has no geography which I believe is the root of true Hinduism. — I believe absolutely that India has a mission for the world. My religion has no geographical limits if I have a living faith in it, it will transcend my love for India herself."
If Great India can say this, and
the whole world will indeed be saved!
NEGRO TEACHERS RAISE
$428.58 FOR SCHOOLS
(Special to The New York Age).
Hampton, Va. - Dr. James Hardy Dillard of Charlotteville, Va., president of the Jeanes and Stirrer Boards, states that the Jeanes Fund, which was created for the improvement of Negro rural schools, cooperated during the school session ending June 30, 1922, with public-school superintendents in 273 counties in thirteen states. Dr. Dillard reports that this Negro, rural improvement work was taken over by the State in four counties. Dr. Dillard adds:
"The 275 supervising teachers, paid partly by the counties and partly through the Jeanes Fund, visited regularly in these counties 7,850 country schools, making in all 33,921 visits, and raising for the purpose of school improvement $428,528.39.
"The total amount of salary paid to the supervising teachers was $207,877.75, of which the sum of $114,521.51 was paid by the public school authorities and $272,651 through the Jeanes Fund."
"The business of these traveling teachers, working under the direction of the county superintendents, is to help and encourage the rural teachers; to introduce into the small country schools simple home industries; to give talks and lessons on sanitation, cleanliness, etc.; to promote the improvement of school grounds, and to organize clubs for the betterment of the school and neighborhood."

Fleet St Church, Brooklyn
According to previous announcement Rev. W. C. W. Zoon, pastor of the Fleet St. A. M. F. Zoon Church on Sunday morning addressed himself from the theme "Has Christianity Failed?" The audience was unusually large and attentive. While it was nice the minister spoke before a critical congregation, and that there were some that had reached a decision, every word was listened to with the most marked attention, and the pastor's conclusion that Christianity has not failed, is borne out in the most concrete forms of service in the spirit of Christ, challenging and interpreting Christian opportunity in its relation to the great issues of our time, and encouraging, and inspiring young people to Christian ideals as shall lead them fearlessly and with faith in God to embody those ideals in life. The power of the church to do this is uncalculable.
At 3 p.m. Holy Communion was served to several hundred. The Rev. Mr. Hurley spoke from the text, "We need not for me, ye daughters of Jerusalem."
The evening service was even longer than the morning service.

Ala, in the key, St. Stokes' ministry, the world series, when Judge Lindsay saw the moor spirit, when the lord was a woman, the cool strike, the strikes, and the strike breakers.
The minister in no uncertain way flung back to Christianity. Anderson has so called Christian evangelism to call her them religion and pleaded with his influence to a copy. Christ and his standards of religion and life have standards of religion and life, and standards which are the foundations of immortality.

Comments By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors
The Minnesota Messenger addresses this blunt admonition to political candidates:
The Messenger is under no obligations to any of the political parties or candidates. It will give special mention to those who have done something towards the material advancement of the Negro.
This smacks of political independence, a thing abhorrent to the professional politician. Such an attitude, if consistently maintained, should bring results
The Detroit Independent, under the heading of "A Friend of the Common People," paid the following tribute to a native son, Roland J. Willis:
As a practical evidence of what he has done—he has either inaugurated or been largely instrumental in bringing about the following measures for the cause. The employment of colored men in the manufacturing and industrial activities of our city; the employment of colored men as conductors and motormen on street cars in the City of Detroit—the first in the United States; the employment of colored men in the Board of Public works; the defeat of the bill in the legislature against intermarriage; the promotion of colored men in the Police Department to the rank of detectives, and the employment of colored men in the Fire Department of the City of Detroit. And this great achievement, for freedom of the rights of the colored people in the Middlebrook and the celebrated case of Tom Ray.
That is a pretty full record for a member of the Michigan bar during the past quarter century.

Another example of racial enterprise was furnished in the following paragraph taken from the Indianapolis breconan:
1. Arthur Headen, head of the Headen Motor Company, incorporated of Chicago, expert British government aviator, inventor of the invisible submarine destroyer, designer and builder of the new Headen automobile—the world's greatest Negro achievement—passed through Indianapolis this week enroute to Nashville, Tenn., in one of the newly built machines, which is a record breaker for substantial mechanical workmanship and extraordinary taste.
It was claimed that the trip from Chicago to Indianapolis was made in the record breaking time of 4 hours and 37 seconds. The amount of gas used was not stated.

In Massachusetts, as in New York State this year, the platforms of both the great political parties denounced kneeling. The resolution passed by the Republican not only mentions the Dyer bill specifically and urges its passage as speedily as possible, but scores bitterly race prejudice and especially disfranchishment. The Democratic State Convention demanded that "both legislation and executive action put a stop at once and for all to the disguise of lynch-law. The constitutional guarantee of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is a heritage that should be safeguarded, if necessary with Federal legislation."
