up would be even greater than the European tests show the African to be What Africa needs, and that all other countries need, is education adapted to the life and needs of the people and the community. While Africans have responded magnificently to the training and teaching which they have received, and now occupy positions of importance in every country visited, the great misfortune is that the type of education and the methods of teaching the African people, limit opportunities to the few, and the great masses are still neglected. In Africa is to be lifted out of ignorance and barked at the education of the future must be adapted to the needs of the masses and must include in its program provisions for health, recreation, farm and home and family life.
Refera to Liberia.
The Liberian civilized group deserves credit for maintaining itself and not being overcome by harbous hordes from the interior. It is fortunate, however, that it most other respects the educated and civilized Liberians, seem to be losing ground. Liberia needs port facilities, roads into the interior, and schools. Compared with adjoining British and French Colonies, Liberia is sadly lacking in practically all the facilities necessary for the development of the people and the country. Unlike the colonies of the European Powers, which have sent men and material and money into their colonies to develop them, Liberia has depended almost wholly on the United States for assistance, and to date the United States has not made good its promises. The hopes of all the friends of Liberia are in the American Loan the machinery for remedying Liberia, all may be started to moving "All Americans," said Dr. Jones, "owe it to themselves to see that Liberia is assisted."
Mr. Aggrey Speaks.
Mr. Aggrey followed Dr. Jones and presented the cause of the African people in his usual cloquent style, comparing Africa to the "Sleeping Beauty" saying that no matter how long Africa has been sleep or may sleep, she bound to wake up some day and make her contribution to the civilization of the world. Mr. Aggrey was strong in his praise of the missionaries, and even though some of the traders had destroyed some of the good work of the missionaries, the African people have learned to place their faith, confidence and hope in those who came to live and work, and die for the uplift of the native people.
Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes stated the policy of the Phelps-Stokes Fund to be one of cooperation and expressed the faith of himself and the traditional faith of his whole family in the black peoples of the world. This faith was especially strong in the life of Miss Caroline Stokes, whose made possible the foundation of the Fund, referring to her fact that members of the Phelps-Stokes family made the first Liberian Flag in their home.
Other speakers were Dr. James H. Dillard, Prof Paul Monroe and Fenell P. Turner, Dr. Stephen P. Duggan presided.
The Central Republican Club, located at 23 West 124th street, under supervision of David B. Costuma, leader of the 19th A. D., has arranged for a series of monthly meetings throughout the winter, with important and interesting address by prominent men of the party.
The meeting to be held on Wednesday evening, December 13, will be addressed by Col. William Hayward, former commander of the famous Old 15th New York "Hell Fighters" (369th A. E. F.), and County Chairman Samuel S. Koenig will be present.

Battling Siki Tells New Story of Fight
Says Agreement Was Made to Let Carpentier Win 4th RoundByApparentK.0.
Jeers From Crowd Caused Senegalese to Carry Fight to Finish---Deputy Diagne Is Defending Fellow Countryman
The case of Battling Siki, whose titles of world's light heavyweight champion and heavyweight champion of Europe were taken away from him by the French Boxing Federation, has become of international interest for at least two reasons.
First, Siki knocked out Georges Carpentier, the idol of France and "the wonder man of Europe." Secondly, Siki's charges that the fight was a "frame-up," made in his personal story to Deputy Diagne, the French Senegalese legislator, are now being printed in detail for the first time.
PARIS, Dec. 4.—Battling Siki, the Senegalese conqueror of Georges Carpentier, declared today in the presence of Deputy Diagne and two witnesses that his fight with Carpentier for the light heavyweight world's championship had been "framed," but that during the fight he had determined to be the winer.
Siki said that, once he was in front of a crowd of 50,000 acclaiming him and conscious of his own strength, he had a revulsion of feeling, despite reminders from his corner, during his minute's rest after the third round, and had decided to go in and win.
The club was organized in 1888 as a beneficial society for the colored men employed in the many clubs of the city. For thirty years its entire activity was confined to collecting dues from its mem-

Expansion of Activities.
At this time the membership of the club was about four hundred, and its capital less than $5,000. A change was needed and the following new officers were elected: Julius W. Watson, president; William Logan, recording and corresponding secretary; John D. Younger, financial secretary. A drive was begun immediately for new members, and to encourage more people to join the club reduced the initiation fee to $2.50, increased the sick benefit from $8 to $12 weekly, and the death benefit from $100 to $200. It now has a membership of 1,347, and cash capital of more than $25,000.

This was the only reason, the Deputy stated, for his agreeing to fight the case of the Senegalese.
Bikl Tella Story.
That the Siki-Carpentier battle, which Siki said was designed to be the most monumental, frame-up in the history of boxing, "the frame-up of the century," became the greatest tragedy of double-crossing and caused the downfall of Europe's idol, was due to the pride of the Negro fighter, he declares.
*I could not lie down before 50,000
During the past two or three years, it has been outgrowing its original purpose of caring for the sick and burying the dead, and is now planning to buy or erect a home and do other things of a more tangible nature for the good of Harlem. It is an incorporated body and is passing through the most prosperous period in its history.
Among its members are numbered men in all walks of life. Among its more prominent members are such men as Dr. Charles H. Roberts, Perry Cheney and U. Conrad Vincent, as-Assemblyman John Clifford Hawkins, Counsellor C. McDougal, the Revs. J. W. Brown and G. M. Oliver, and many other professional men of the community.
Watson as President.
Much of the Children's success in the past few years has been due to the leadership of its president, Julius Watson, who is one of the best known fraternal and organization men in the city. Mr. Watson was born in North Carolina and came to New York twenty years ago. He is a prominent member of the Southern Beneficial League, vice-president of the Coachmen's Union League Society, a trustee of the Jappa Lodge, F. & A. M., president of the board of directors of the Prince Hall Temple and Home Association, which is planning to build a masonic home in this city, and a member of the board of directors of the Independent Order of St. Lukes, which pays taxes on $200,000 worth of real estate in Harlem.
Mr. Watson has been prominent in Republican politics, and has served as corporation inspector in the office of the President of the Borough of Manhattan. He was a special mousser for Senator Wadsworth when he was speaker of the State Assembly, and was a deputy sheriff of New York County under Sheriff Griffinhagen. He is also prominent in church affairs, being a member of the trustee board and president of the steward board of Mother A. M. E. Jon Church.
His ambition for the Clubmen's Beneficial League is to make it serve the community as a whole as well as its members. He hopes to do this by buying apartment balcony and renting them to colored people at a reasonable rental and by buying stock in some business concern where Negroes will be given the opportunity to work and have some share in the management as well as patronize.

Judge Mancuso Orders 2 Grand Juries To Investigate Ku Klux
Jealous of Wife, Beats Her; Killed In Duel With Police
Fred Jones of 2203 Seventh Ave., Shoots at Spouse When Given Court Summons-Ir Gun Battle With Officers, Shot Through Body
When his wife, Bertha, rebelled against continued mistreatment, which included being beaten, Frederick Jones, 24 years of age, of 2203 Seventh avenue, was handed a summons by his spouse, requiring him to appear in the 12th district magistrate's court and answer for his cruelty. His immediate answer to the summons was to use the butt end of an automatic pistol as a club, with his wife's head as the object of his aiming. Then, as a parting salute, he turned the weapon and fired pointblank at her as he left the apartment.
Brooklyn residents, especially of the neighborhood near Schenectady avenue and Herkimer street, are much aroused over alleged conditions surrounding the commitment of Miss Olivia Harris, youngest daughter of George H. Harris, undertaker, to Herkimer street, to a sanitarium, said to be the King's Park State Hospital, Long Island, after she had first been taken to the King's County Hospital, Clayton avenue. Brooklyn. The young woman was reported to have had a mental breakdown a few months ago, as an alleged result of close attention to her duties as a social worker and Y. W. C. A. attache. She was at one time associated with the Lincoln House, West Old street, New York City, assistant to the late-Miss Birdie H. Haynes, and later was employed in Y. W. C. A. work in a western city.
But there are rumors that a very much more serious condition exists, with a possible criminal culpability attaching to a close relative, and it is alleged that the District Attorney's office of Kings county has been called upon to investigate these reports. Members of the Brooklyn Big Sisters organization, it is reported, have been making an effort to secure the removal of Miss Harris to a private retreat, but they have been unable, it appears, to secure the necessary consent or cooperation from the family. A telephone call to the King's Park Hospital brought information to The Age to the effect that it was impossible to say when Miss Harris could be discharged, but that she was in good condition, up and walking around every day.

Officer William H. Cannon (Shield 4952) of the 38 Precinct was standing at 134th street and Seventh avenue when his attention was attracted by an unusually large crowd assembled at 130th street and virginity, so he commanded a passing taxi and drove posthaste to see what was causing the excitement. As he reached 120th street excited bystanders began to call out, "There he goes!" There he goes!" pointing to a man running through 132nd street toward Eighth avenue, with a 25 calorie automatic in his hand. Policeman Cannon immediately turned in that direction.
The main running, who was Frederick Jones, saw the policeman and hesitated long enough to tend a bullet from his gun in the uniformed officer's direction. Patrolman Cannon returned the fire, and dropping from the taxi, followed Jones. A running interchange of shots then took place, with Jones finally taking sanctuary in the area of an undearest's residence at 277 West 132nd street. Using the stone abutment as an entrenchment, the fugitive fired the remainder of bullets in his gun at Patrolman Cannon, who was exposed in the open street, without shelter of any sort.
One of the bullets from Jones' gun struck Cannon's left shoulder, ripping off part of the leather upper and sole just in front of the instep. Twisting and circling, in an effort to disturb his opponent's aim, the officer emptied his revolver, and chipped places on the stone wall of the area shoed that his bullets were well aimed. As both men reloaded their guns, Jones made his way out of the area and went back to Seventh avenue, Cannon following. Up Seventh avenue Jones ran, and at 132nd street, Officer William Franklin, who was passing on his way to breakfast, joined Officer, Cannon in the chase.
At 134th street, Patrolman Thomas Quilty, who had heard the firing, joined Cannon and Franklin, and Jones turned east toward Lexon avenue. He had more
U. S., Attorney General Daugherty Had Declared That Federal Agencies Had no Jurisdiction Over Order's Acts
Federal authorities, through United States Attorney General H. M. Daugherty, disclaims jurisdiction over the Ku Klux Klan, according to a letter sent by the Attorney General in reply to one received from Senator David I. Walsh of Massachusetts (Democrat), who demanded investigation and prosecution of the invisible empire by the Department of Justice. The prosecution of the order must be left in the hands of the state authorities, according to this ruling.
In the meantime, Judge Francis X. Mancuso of the Court of General Sessions, New York county, is determined that the legal machinery of the State of New York will not be lacking in operation against any subversive acts committed by the Klan in New York City, and to that end he has instructed two grand juries in his Court to investigate Ku Klux activities and indict if the evidence warrants it.

In the first place, Judge Mancuso points out that the order is not solely against the Negro, Jew and Catholic, but against all who do not accept its principles. In delivering his charge to the regular December and additional grand juries, Judge Mancuso cited section 710 of the Penal Law, which provides as follows:
"Any assemblage in public houses or other places of three or more persons disguised by having their faces painted, discolored, colored or concealed is unlawful and every individual so disguised, present, thereat, is guilty of a misdemeanor."
"Birth of a Nation" Revived
The charges given by Judge Mancus are of especial interest in view of the fact that on Monday night, December 4, at the Selwin Theatre, there was a revival of the infamous Tom Dixon Ku Klux Klan moving picture, "The Birth of a Nation," before an audience characterized by Tuesday morning's papers as composed largely of modern Klansmen, to judge by the cheers every time a Klansman appeared on the screen. News-papermen were told by an individual, circulating about the theatre lobby, that "it was a secret, but the Ku Klux had caused this picture to be revived."
There were some in the audience who had the courage to hiss the picture, and

but a short distance through 134th street, just three doors from the entrance to Barron Wilkins' establishment, when a bullet fired by Quilty struck Jones in the back, passing entirely through the body Jones dropped in his track. The officers rushed up to put him under arrest, but to their surprise, Jones met their approach with a tiger rush and the three policemen were compelled to exert themselves to the utmost before the wounded man could be subdued.
He was placed in an ambulance and taken to Harlem Hospital, where he died on Saturday at 3:30 a.m. Mrs. Jones was treated by an ambulance surgeon for contusions on the head. According to Patrolman Cannon, the trouble arose because Jones was extremely jealous of his wife, expressing that feeling by beating her on slightest provocation. On the day before Thanksgiving, Mrs. Jones had complained to Cannon of her husband's actions and it was through his advice that she had obtained a summons from the court. This called on him to appear Friday, December 1, in answer to his wife's charges, and she served this summons on him Thanksgiving morning about 9:30 o'clock. The shooting followed at once. Jones' weapon was a 'Venus automatic,' 25 calibre, No. 2421, a weapon advertised extensively for sale by certain mail order houses.
It is reported that residents of the 132nd street block, between Seventh and Eighth avenues, who witnessed Officer Cannon's brave action, engaging in a deal from the open with a man safely enclosed behind street breadworks, are framing a letter of commentation to be signed by them and sent to Mayor Hylan and Commissioner Enright. The shooting occurred at an hour when the streets were fairly occupied with passersby, but it is said that in an incredibly short space of time the policeman and his quarry had the streets to themselves.

Judge Mancuso's Charge
In addressing the two grand juries Judge Mancuso spoke as follows:
"I desire to bring to your attention certain statements that appeared in the public prints of this city to the effect that an organization by the name of the Ku Klux Klan has openly declared its intention to begin an extensive drive to carry on its activities here and to exert its minister power and influence in our midst." Judge Mancuso said. "The invasion is directed, apparently, not against the Negro, Jew and Catholic, but against any and all persons who do not accept the principles of the Klan. "They are endeavoring to function under an invisible government, and if unchecked, will create hatred and intolerance, which will destroy our most precious American heritage and destroy and undermine our constitutional, guarantees and substitute instead that form of tyranny, bigotry and violence to which our Government is opposed. "Ours is a government of the people, conducted on a sound, honorable and popular basis, and any individual who promotes class or religious hatred commits acts subversive to popular government and everything we hold dear and sacred in our national life.
Citesa Meeting in Maska
"In this country we are equal, and opportunities are offered equally to all, irrespective of race, color or creed. No one better than myself can attest to these sacred and wholesome principles. I came here from the sunny shores of Italy twenty-eight years ago, without friends or means, and, thanks to the institutions of this country, I was able to rise to my present position. Therefore, we can readily appreciate how pernicious and inconsistent the Ku K'ux Klan would be to the history of the Republic if what they do, or threaten to do, is tolerated.
"I have been informed that several meetings of the Klan were held in this city, at which full regalia was used, consisting of a gown and mask. It is your duty, gentlemen, to make an investigation of this matter and all the other matters referred to by me, with a view to ascertaining whether any of the acts committed by the Klan come within the purview, of the penal statute of this State. For that reason I invite your attention to section 710 of the Penal Law, which provides as follows:
Quotes Law Covering Case.
"An assemblage in public houses or other places of three or more persons disguised by having their faces painted, discolored, colored or concealed, is unlawful, and every individual so disguised, present therea, is guilty of a misdemeanor."
"This law is clear and definite, as you will observe; so that if any person wear a gown and mask and commit the acts set forth in the statute they come within the prohibition of the law.
"Furthermore, section 712 provides as follows:
"A person who leaves the State, with intent to elude any provision of this article, or to commit any act without the State, which is prohibited by this article, or who, being a resident of this State, does any act without the State, which would be punishable by the provisions of this article, if committed within the State, is guilty of the same offense and subject to the same punishment, as if the act had been committed within this State."
"I also direct your attention to section 43 of the Penal Law, which reads in art as follows:
"A person who wilfully and wrongfully commits any act which seriously injures or endangers the public peace or health, or which openly outrages public decency, for which no other punishment is expressly prescribed by this chapter, is guilty of a misdemeanor."
Brown, or by a group of individuals, then you may apply section 580 of the Federal Law, which provides among other things:
If two or more persons conspire (4) to commit a crime; or (5) to commit any act injurious to the public health, or public morals, or to trade or commerce, or for the perversion or obstruction of justice, or of the due administration of the laws, each of them is guilty of a misdemeanor.
In order to establish a conspiracy under the law same overt act must be shown, and the people must show that the acts complained of were committed with a corrupt or criminal intent.
"If, as a result of your investigation, you find that the law has been violated, then you will be justified in returning indictments against such person or persons, irrespective of who the individual may be."
After Judge Mancuso's charge: Acting District Attorney Ferdinand Pecora said:
"The District Attorney's office will be glad to get any information in the possession of Judge Mancuso or any other person about the activities of the Ku Klux Klan which tends to show that the law has been violated, and if any such information is brought to us it will be presented to the Grand Jury."
Dr. Straton's Sermon
Following the disclosures of the activities of one Rev. Oscar Haywood, attached as general evangelist to Calvary Baptist Church, pasted by Rev. John Roach Straton, indicating that Haywood had used his church affiliations as a means of furthering his Klan propaganda, Dr. Straton preached a sermon on Sunday evening, December 3, subject, "Our American House Divided Against Itself—the Menace of White Ku Kluxism, Green Sectarianism, Yellow Journalism and General Blackguardism." In this sermon the Calvary Baptist minister dealt very lightly with the Klan's principles, declaring that "there are many good people in the Ku Klux Klan" and he summoned up by saying, "The Klan's motives are good and their methods are bad; their principles are virtuous and their practices are vicious." Dr. Straton announced that next Sunday evening he will preach on the subject, "How to Fight the Negroes, Foreigners, Catholics and Jews in the More Excellent Way."
Sentiment against Ku Klaus Klan allies seems to be gathering force in all sections of the country. No member of the order will be allowed to serve on a grand jury in Cook county. Illinois according to a statement issued by Chief Justice Michael L. McKinley in Chicago on Monday in Kansas Gov. Allen has attired the Klansmen because of his determined opposition to their organization. The American Unity League has sent a telegram to members of the New York Legislature endorsing the proposed action that will necessitate publishing the roster of membership of all secret societies.
Ministers of all denominations in and around New York City have voiced qualifierable opposition to the tenets and doctrines of the invisible empire, and organizations representing Hebrew and Catholic memberships are daily coming forward with condemnation of the Klan doctrines.
WOMAN CUT TO DEATH
IN FRONT OF CHILDREN
(Special To The New York Age)
Newark, N. J. As her two daughters looked on, Mrs. Visha Rokins, 248 Prince street, was stabbed to death in her home last Tuesday evening. Robert J. Garrett, a boarder, is being sought by the police as the slayer.
Mrs. Rokins, twenty-eight years old, was serving the evening's meal to Garrett, James Pinking, another boarder, and her two daughters, Anna, seven, and Christine, five, when she asked Garrett if she intended paying a small board bill. According to Pinking, Garrett grabbed a table knife, sprang at the woman and stabbed her in the left shoulder, the blade penetrating to within an inch of her heart.
Garrett dashed from the house. Pinking followed, going to a stable, where Mrs. Rokins' husband is employed, and told him of the stabbing. Rokins ran to the Fourth Precinct station and reserves of the precinct and a squad of detectives from headquarters reached the Prince street house shortly afterward. They scoured the vicinity, but were unable to locate Garrett.
HAWKINS NAMED TO
Judge Rosaliyah granted him an appointment until the following day and assigned John Clifford Hawkins, of the firm of Hawkins & Rucker, 231 Seventh avenue, and Herman Hoffman, of, 233, Broadway, as counsel to defend him.
The crime which Washington is charged with having committed was one of the most brutal ever committed in the city of New York. His wife, Mannie, was found at the corner of Seventh avenue and 19th street, with her body literally cut to pieces, apparently by a ragged razor.
Attorney Hawkins is at the present time counsel for the United States Government, attached to the Shipping Board. He is a leading Republican of the 21st Assembly District. Recently he and Henry Allan Rucker, Jr., of Atlanta, Ga., formed the Law Firm of Hawkins & Rucker.

$50,000 Drive For Africa Finished by Bishop Brooks
(Special To The New York Age)
Baltimore, Md.-Bishop W. Sampon Brooks, presiding over the nineteenth episcopal district of the A. M. E. Church, embracing the Sierra Leone and Liberia conferences, with headquarters at Monrovia, Liberia, West Coast of Africa, has concluded successfully his drive for $50,000, for promotion of his church's religious and educational work in the Dark Continent.
Prior to sailing for Liverpool, England, enroute to Liberia, on the White Star liner, Cedric, leaving New York on Saturday, December 2, Bishop Brooks submitted a complete report of contributions - received from conferences, churches, organizations and individuals.
In forwarding his report, the prelate sent the following letter to the editor of, The New York Age:
"I am dropping you this line in the very closing days of my campaign to thank you for the unstinted support that you gave me. As a secular paper it could hardly be thought that you could have given so much space to a private enterprise. I take it that you have the burden of Africa's redemption upon your heart and you wanted to serve them on this occasion. I thank God that you did."

Train African Leaders To Assist Native Development
Phelps-Stokes African Education Commission Emphasizes Need for Educational Advantages for Natives Trained as Instructors Convinced of what it terms "the improvability of the natives," the African Education, Commission not only emphasizes the need for educational developments which will reach the masses in forms adapted to promote their economic and social well-being, but it also urges the importance of training native leaders to assist in this development.

Phelps-Stokes African Edu
phasizes Need for Educa
Natives Trained
Convinced of what it terms "the African Education. Commission for educational developments which areted to promote their economy also urges the importance of trai this development.
"However difficult it may be to understand the contribution natives can make in the teaching and direction of their people, effective education and sound government require the training of native leadership," says the report. "The increasing enthusiasm of native peoples the world over for self-determination and nationalism is found and helpful, so long as it makes for self-respect. It is unfortunate only when it results in distrust or hostility toward other peoples." The recommendation is made that the training of native leaders be based on a comprehensive system of secondary schools and each of these schools be adapted, to the particular requirements—rural, urban or specific,—of its community.
College Education for Natives
In the matter of college education the report says among other things: "Though college education for the African youth is limited to two institutions in Africa and to the opportunities for study in Europe and America, it is certain that the development of native leadership will require more college facilities as the standards of education advance. If college education is of value to any group, surely it is to those who are to be the native guides of African people whose existence is beset with so many perplexing problems: "More and more leadership of Africans is developing upon the strong and capable native men and women. Successful leadership requires the best lessons of sociology, economics and education. Without such leadership misunderstandings will multiply and increase in perplexity."
The Commission outlines four essentials of educational policy and organization required to give Africa an adequate and real system, to wit: Adaptations of education, organization and supervision, education of masses and of native leadership, and cooperation for the education of Afrians.
A. Rural People
On this subject the report develops the following arguments: "Africa is overwhelmingly rural and the great mass of her people will always be close to the soil and derive their sustenance from the products of the soil; but they require more than instruction in agriculture and animal husbandry. Personal hygiene and community sanitation, the simple handicrafts of the kraal or tribal village, and appreciation of privacy in home life and of decency in dress, leadership in developing suitable recreation, for the use of leisure time, an appreciation of their own history, folk-lore and music—such is the curriculum of an adopted education which the report proposes. The report emphasizes the fact that if the masses are really to be reached, the great bulk of the educational activities will necessarily be centered in simple one and two-teacher schools in the villages, a system similar to the Rosenwald Schools in the South. Upon a system of community training teachers from central training schools, can be developed a higher education serving the needs of the ministry, medicine, law, engineering and other professions, as well as colleges.

Gov. Parker Democrat, La., Has Senatorial Aspirations
Shrewdly Attempts to Benefit Self By Protesting Cohen's Appointment at New OrleansSenator Ransdell, Incumbent; Blocks Play
New Orleans, La.—President Harding is a man of strong convictions. He is a Republican and authorish party organization man. He recognizes leadership in the party organization wherever leadership, in the South and in the North, without regard to race or color.
This is proven in his appointment of Hon. Walter L. Cohen, leader and "power behind the throne" in Republican politics in Louisiana, to the position of Comptroller of Customs at New Orleans, and in his point-blank refusal to remove Mr. Cohen on the hold request of Governor John M. Parker, Democrat, of Louisiana, who, it is generally believed in the State, made the request to benefit senatorial aspirations he has for the seat now occupied by Senator Joseph E. Ransdell, who is a candidate to succeed himself in the next election.
President Harding is not interested in the Democratic primarist, for the nomination for the Senate in Louisiana, and Governor Parker's move against Mr. Ransdell must have amused the President, if politician as he is himself, he understood Mr. Parker's play. Mr. Ransdell was not worrying himself about Republican politics and its conflitants of party appointments. He was rather busying him. If about legislation for the good of his state and telling the Republicans, run their own political affairs, when Governor Parker crept to Washington without public announcement of his intention and purpose in going, and teaching him the prumption of the would-be Ransdell "in a hole" and benefit himself. But President Harding was not interested in the governor's political plays, and both of them fell flat—the one against the Ku Klux Klan, the other against the appointment of Comptroller of Customs at New Orleans.
Parker is Disregarded
Mr. Ransdell, through the Washington "Post's" article Sunday morning on the purpose of Mr. Parker's visit to the President, released ahead of time, caught the meaning of it all and denounced the story of Ku Klux domination: Louisiana as a slander on the people and demanded an explanation president of the fraternity, a senior at the Harvard Law School; Charles S. Stone, editor-in-chief of the Springfield College daily paper, and several others. It was agreed to make this an annual affair and a permanent chairman was named to call the next meeting.

and President Harding on his per-

with sending Mr. Cohen's name to Senate for confirmation.
Governor Parker's "ten per cent"—90 per cent, falsehood" claim
ing the Post's" Ku Klux states
being violated, his saying,
plaintiff fell, that he
didide for any job is treated as a
on himself. His aspiration was
ed up" by his petard, that's why he is not.
Governor John M. Parker of Louisiana has made the appointment of Walter L. Cohen of New Orleans to Comptroller of Customs a national issue on the race question. The governor or went to Washington and provided Mr. Cohen's appointment to the position and boldly requested President Harding to remove him from it simply as purely, because the appointee is a Negro, and failing to have the President accept his view, went upon the floor of the U. S. Senate and demanded the Senate that it refuse to confirm the appointment.
Cohen is Qualified.
The governor did not pretend the Cohen is not capable of filling the position; that Cohen is not a good citizen; that he is not prominent in business in the city of New Orleans or that there is any fault to find Cohen as a man, as a husband, as a father; or that Mr. Cohen has his indorsement for the position of this leader, of religious denomination in the city; of an ex-mayor of the city who was mayor for 16 years until two years ago; of captains of industries; or that all the employees in the Competroller of Customs' office have not voluntarily handed Mr. Cohen their approval of his appointment in writing long before he was appointed and took charge of the office; for any pretense of the kind would be ridiculous for even Parker to make, but the governor has demanded that Cohen's appointment be defeated on the fact that he is a Negro and for no other reason.
He is opposed to Negroes holding federal office, no matter how fit they may be; no matter how much service they may have rendered to the country no matter what party they may achieve with; no matter, how substantial they may be as citizens in their community. If the President of the United States appoints them to office, the appointments violate the principles for which the present governor of Louisiana stands, and must not hold.
Parker Has No Standing.
Governor Parker is a Democrat of the Vardaman-Tillman type. But even if he were not their type, being a Democrat and not a Republican, what right has he to attempt to dictate in Republican affairs? What right has he to attempt to run the affair of partner other than his own?
Is there a Negro in the United States who does not see himself struck in this assault of Governor Parker upon Walter L. Cohen's appointment? Is there one who will not rise and demand the United States Senate to remove the vicious propaganda of Governor Parker and confirm Cohen's appointment? There cannot be!

A college that has its students devote one half their time to actual useful work is so in line with common sense that we are amazed that the idea had to be put in execution by an ex slave to a life saver for his disfranchised race. Our great discoveries are always accidents; we work for one thing and get another. I expect that the day will come, and are long, when the great universities of the world will have to put the Yugdegree idea into execution in order to save themselves from being distressed by the Colored face.

"PASSING THE BUCK."
The New York Herald, which fell heir to the editorial force and acumen which were formerly the distinguishing features of the New York Sun, soon after it became the property of Frank A. Munsey, a little over two years ago, believes that President Harding's announced policy toward the Ku Klux Klan is a policy of great wisdom. Believing and saying this, the Herald asks, with apparent seriousness, "Why shouldn't it apply as well to the anti-lynching bill?"
The policy defined as adopted by President Harding in the matter of the Klan is to leave the problem for the present in the hands of the State authorities. They have been given to understand that they must deal with the matter until they declare it is beyond their control. "When ever they say they cannot handle any Klan situation that arises and call for Federal intervention he will put the authority and power of the national government in charge." The Herald hails this expression of policy in the following terms:
That clear way of thinking and straight course of action in respect of State authority and the Klan applies with equal force to State authority and other purely local problems. If a State can handle its lynching troubles it is the duty of the State to handle them. If a State cannot handle its lynching troubles it can always call upon the national Government to handle them. And then it becomes the duty of the national Government to handle them.
Until State officers confess their inability to prevent lynching or to punish lynchers and until they call upon the Federal Government to help them do what they cannot do when, left to themselves it would seem that there is no more reason for Federal intervention in State lynching situations than there is for Federal intervention in State Ku Klux situation.
The trouble with this offhand disposition of both the Klan and the Lynchers is that the State governments and their officers are in most cases the instruments elected by the Klan and the members of the mob and whill under their control. There have been too few governors in the South like Governor Bickett of North Carolina, who dared to protect helpless prisoners from the mob and to forbid the activities of the Klan within his State.
In some of these States the Klan is given a charter issued under the State seal and its members are elected to public office, ranging from United States Senator, as in the case of Mayfield of Texas, to incarcerals of the various counties. The suggestion that any of these officials would call for Federal intervention, in case of either Klan outrages or violence, is flying in the face of all probabilities.
The President's announced policy toward the Ku Klux Klan is another variation of the time honored game of officialdom generally known as "passing the buck." This game as a rule is practiced by petty officials burdened with too much responsibility for the size of the office held by them. In self-defence they pass questions of importance to their superiors, or to the nearest other authority. Each a policy is not to be expected from the executive of a great nation, who is confronted by the breakdown of the powers of the various State governments.
The acute intellect that directs the editorial policies of Mr. Munsey's great newspaper must perceive this situation as it really exists. Why it should blink at recognizing the facts as they are, we are unable to conceive. Evading the real issue will not change the facts and the conditions of mob law and anarchy now existing will only grow worse through neglect.
REPUBLICAN DANGER
The indications of weakening by the republicans in the Senate, in their advocacy of such measures as the appropriation for the Liberian loan and the lyer Anti-Lynching Bill, are fraught with danger to the future prospects of the party, if allowed to result in the defeat of these measures, to which the party has pledged its support. Democratic opposition to both of these measures was only to be expected and should be met with a bold and decisive policy in the Republican side.
The Liberian loan is really a legacy it from the last Democratic Administration, which pledged its and to the Weal African government as a war measure, and of treating this measure with
such riteholder as Senator Norris, a Republican from Nebraska, insulted in the Republican majority should redeem the pledge made by this government and act in good faith in this matter. The money should be appropriated to meet this advance to Liberia and its disbursement should be so safeguarded as to ensure its being used to develop the internal resources of the country. This would be only proper return for the sacrifice of commercial interests made by Liberia in joining the Allies by declaring war against Germany.
As to the Dyer bill, it is a measure of protection to the States whose governments are breaking down under the encroachments of mob violence and lynch law. While the Negroes of the South have so far been the principal sufferers from this failures of the police power of these States to give them protection from the mob, there is every sign that this weakening of the forces of law and order endangers the whole citizenship. This has been proved in the case of the Ku Klux Klan, which was originally revived to cow the colored citizens into subjection to white domination, but which has extended its outrages to the killing and whipping of white victims of its prejudices.
It is up to the Republican majority to "tote straight" on both measures in order to redeem the honor of this country and to preserve the amenities of civilized government. Southern Democrats in the Senate, or outside of it for that matter, should not be permitted to either bulldoze or softsoap the Republicans. If the Republicans hope to maintain the party organization along its present lines, and to retain the confidence of large sections of the voters who have supported it in the past, they will need to get back to its original principles. The principle of keeping faith with its allies, of protecting human rights, of enforcing law and order in all parts of the land, should be foremost among these cardinal principles of the party.
The Republican party should stand square on all these questions. It is not merely a question of protecting Negroes as citizens, it has grown broader than that. It is a question of maintaining a republican form of government or of surrendering to the forces of anarchy and rebellion, which have virtually subverted the powers of the States. A surrender to these abhorrent forces will mark that degeneracy of the nation, which Abraham Lincoln pointed out as the danger of democracy over half a century ago.
In acting to save the country from such impending evils, the Republicans will be saving their own party from the danger of dissolution and disgrace. It requires either genuine patrotism or an enlightened self-interest on the part of the party leaders to act decisively in this emergency.
A Washington special noted the fact that the opportunity for free vocational training offered to those who served in the World's War will soon lapse. It said
"The attention of every Negro ex-service man who enlisted in the World War, is called to the fact that after December 16, 1922, it will be too late to file application for vocational training with the U. S. Veterans Bureau under the "Sweet Bill". Hence, in order to be entitled to any consideration along the line of vocational training at the expense of the U. S. Government, you must have on file your application with the U. S. Veterans Bureau setting forth the claim for which you may contend not later than December 16, 1922.
Those former soldiers who have not applied for this training in useful skilled vocations and who still desire to do so, should act in the matter at once.
The Texas Freeman, published at Galveston, thinks that the United States should recognize President Obregon's administration in Mexico. It advanced the following reasons for such action:
The protection of Americans is the main thought considered by our American people and by the American government. President Obregon has done much more than merely protect Americans. He has protected his own people. He has restored law and order and popular rights and liberties completely throughout his whole country and for all classes, rich and poor, regardless of race, color or creed.
He is not a partisan of any class or clique. He is not playing favorites. He is endeavoring to do absolute justice. And it is because he is resting his orderly social and governmental structure upon the firm foundation of equal justice that the peace and prosperity of Mexico will be permanent.
As a matter of fact, the principles and policies of President Obregon are so sound and sincere, that it is advisable that some of our own statesmen study them and learn a lesson from him. The Mexican people know that not only schools, but all other civilizing influences are being developed. They know that the railroads are being extended and improved, and that great highways are being built from the railroad terminals into distant districts. They know that telephone systems are being installed between towns; that electric lighting systems are being installed in the smallest towns; that power is being developed; that water systems are being improved for drinking purposes; that irrigation purposes and for manufacturing purposes. Hospitals are being built and cleanliness and sanitation encouraged. Farm schools and manual training schools are being established to teach the farmers and the working men how to make the best and most out of their opportunities.
This makes a very good case for the Oregon government, but there are certain claims of importunes to American capitalists, which may have 'bearing on the question'. The influence of American capital cannot be disregarded in the master of foreign relations, as we have seen in the state of other governments to the South.
L. THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1922.
VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Weidon Johnson, Contributing Editor.
AS WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE SEES IT.
William Allen White, the brilliant editor of the "Emporia Gazette," is the writer of a syndicated column which appears in a number of newspapers under the title, "As I See It."
No one ought need to be told who Mr. White is. He is one of the best known editors in the United States. In fact, perhaps, he is the last great representative of the almost vanished galaxy of personal editors.
Once upon a time, the editor of a great newspaper was the newspaper. The publication reflected his personal views and often his personal peculiarities. But the day of the Bennetts and Greeleys and Danas and Wattersons has gone. The great newspapers have become and are becoming more impersonal machines. Indeed the big metropolitan dailies no longer carry their editorial staff at the head of the editorial column. And so, because William Allen White does, belong in the galaxy of great personal editors, his opinions are his own and not the dictations of somebody else, and therefore they are entitled to their respectful consideration.
In his column last week, Mr. White wrote about "A Vanishing Race." A reading of the article discloses that he was not talking about the American Indian, the native Hawaiian, or the aboriginal inhabitants of any of the Pacific Islands. He was speaking of the American Negro.
What he said was the result of a perusal of the Negro Year Book published at Tuskegee Institute. Mr. White seems to be rather surprised at the contents of the Year Book. He seems amazed at finding there is a civilization growing up and developing within what we call American civilization. He seems astonished at discovering that the Negro in the United States is in a greater or lesser degree duplicating the machinery of civilization; that he has his own organizations covering almost every human activity—organizations of lawyers, teachers, preachers, editors, doctors, dentists, club women, authors, artists, bankers, business men, of Republicans and even of Democrats. By these facts he seems to be much impressed but he did not comment upon them as we should have liked to have him do. We should have liked very much to know what William Allen White thinks of the ultimate outcome of this empire within an empire.
However, the facts in the Year Book which seem to impress him most were those which he gleaned from the various tables, graphs, and maps giving social and vital statistics regarding the race. From these diagrams, he gains the opinion that the Negro in the United States is slowly but surely dying out. He gleans that the birth rate is falling below the death rate. This, he says, is partly due to the fact that the white man's vices are sterilizing the Negro and partly due to the fact that the Negro is controlling his birth rate as the middle-class white man controls his birth rate.
In order to illustrate the vein in which Mr. White wrote on this subject, we quote the two following paragraphs from his article:
Of course the Negro is not fading out as the Indian or the buffalo is fading, but he is gradually bleaching, gradually moving into an environment where he cannot or will not live as long as he used to live, and as he moves northward he moves upward in the economic scale, and so controls the number of babies in his family without decreasing infant mortality.
The hand of death is reaching for the black man. Its reach is slow; but unless he changes his ways, the hand of death will grah him as it grabbed the Indian. In the wrestle with civilization the Negro is facile enough in adopting its outward forms. As individuals, the Negroes are improving vastly more than their granddaughters could have dreamed they would improve. But some way, somewhere, deep in his nature, there is a lack. Civilization on this continent is getting him.
We wonder after all if Mr. White is not arriving at a conclusion which originates in a sub-conscious issue. It is not possible that he is, like most thoughtful Americans, concerned about the race problem and even disturbed about it? Perhaps, too, he sees no clear way out, and down in his sub-conscious mind he has thought that a good way out would be the ultimate disappearance of the Negro himself, and when he finds in the Year Book certain tables which show a falling-off in the birth rate, he jumps at them.
We have not yet seen the new issue of the Year Book and so we do not know how far the statistics to which Mr. White refers go to substantiate his conclusions, but we are not inclined to think that they go very far. Indeed, we have in mind the contrary statistics recently issued by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which carries insurance on more colored people than any other of the great northern companies and this report of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company shows that their colored risks had greatly increased in numbers and had become much better insurance risks because of the constant and rapid decline in the death rate among colored people. We would back these statistics of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company any time against the conclusions drawn by Mr. White.
This theory that the Negro in the United States would eventually die out has been a very comforting theory to a great many people. It is a theory which has been indulged in for a good many years, but so far as we are able to find out, it is no nearer to being realized today than it was fifty years ago.
The Negro in this country may not forever maintain his strict racial identity but he will never actually vanish. A thousand years may roll by but the American people will still retain the stamp of the Negro's color and his racial genius.
AN UNPRECEDENTED INCIDENT.
Senator Hitchcock's attack upon Negro soldiers of France led to an unprecedented incident in the United States Senate. When he was speaking most bitterly against the black soldiers, a strong, clear voice rang out through the chamber saying: "Mr. President, may I interrupt the Senator with a question?"
Everybody glanced around to see what Senator was speaking and was, dumbfounded to find that the voice proceeded from a Negro soldier who had risen to his feet in the galleries.
The effect was electrical. Profound silence followed. Even Senator Hitchcock was too much astonished for a moment to go on with his speech. Mr. Coolidge, who was in the chair, rapped for order. The doorkeepers went down to the colored man and informed him that it was against the rules for anyone to speak in the Senate Chamber except those who had the right to the floor. The doorkeepers themselves seemed to be much amazed to know exactly what to do. Finally Senator Hitchcock went on with his speech.
The incident would undoubtedly have passed without further notice except for the fact that as soon as Senator Hitchcock sat down, Senator Herlin of Alabama, in accordance with his role, rose up and demanded that the colored man or "nigger" as he termed it, be ejected from the galleries.
Senator Curtis demurred-to this, stating that in his opinion the man might no harm but did what he did purely through ignor-
ance. Even Senator Hitchcock stated that so far as he was concerned the man should be left alone; he felt that he meant no harm. But Senator Heflin called for blood and would be satisfied with nothing less. In the meantime, the doorkeepers went down and told the colored soldier that he would have to leave the gallery.
The writer immediately left his seat in order to be with the man when the newspaper reporters got around him, as he knew that they would.
The man's name is Lucius Jones. He served in the army and, because of an operation on his feet, was obliged to go on crutches. He is at present an inmate of one of the hospitals of Washington.
The writer asked him what was the question he intended to ask Senator Hitchcock. He replied that he wanted to know why all of this outcry was made against colored men assaulting white women while his own younger sister when she was sixteen years of age had been outraged by a white man. The newspapers reported his question somewhat differently.
There have been interruptions in the Senate before but no one seems to remember an interruption of just this kind. There have been expressions of approval and of disapproval, but no one, it seems, has heretofore, either through temerity or through ignorance, risen up in the galleries and addressed the presiding officer of the Senate.
The incident shows this much: that this colored soldier, as ignorant as he seems to have been, represented a surging protest of his whole race and sought to give expression to it in the Senate of the United States.
CLEMENCEAU THE DEFENDER.

The colored people of the United States ought to be grateful for Clemenceau's visit to this country if for no other reason than that it gave him the opportunity of defending the black soldiers of France and thereby the Negro peoples of the world against attack. The attack was made along well known lines but it was the attack which was the most effective of all against Negroes.
The opportunity was given by the utterances of Senator Hitchcock who rehearsed in detail all of the German propaganda against black soldiers along the Rhine. In spite of the fact that these stories have over and oyer again been exploded and denied, not only by French officials, but by German officials, Senator Hitchcock laboriously repeated them all.
Clemenceau got back at him with some heat but the heat was not any too hot for us. We are grateful to him for his brave utterances for it took unlimited courage for him to make them as pointedly as he did in a country in which he was a guest—a country in which the race problem is so tense.
France still stands forth as the most fearless champion of equal human rights among the nations of the world and Clemenceau truly represents France. We are glad that the colored people of St. Louis and Indianapolis presented him testimonials of their appreciation. This is something which ought to be done by the colored people in each state that the great Frenchman visits.
APPEAL OF COMMUNISM.
Associated Press dispatches from Moscow, for the past two or three weeks have referred to the fact that the condition of the Negro race has been a frequent subject of discussion at the sessions of the Third Internationale. This body which is composed of representatives of labor with radical tendencies, from the various countries of Europe and America, is the congress of communism. The only existing government which approaches its ideals is probably the soviet republic of Russia, which accounts for its meetings being held in that country.
The discussion of the Negro question at the sessions held last week had progressed to a point, where a sub-commission dealing with this subject recommended the calling of a congress of the Negroes of the world, either at Moscow or somewhere in the United States, for the purpose of bettering the condition of the race and asserting their rights. A feature of the discussion was the participation by two members of the race, one an American delegate, who referred to conditions in the United States. According to the dispatcher, this delegate asserted that a form of slavery actually exists today in the Southern States, meaning thereby the practice of ennace as disallowed in Georgia, Florida, Arkansas, Mississippi and other States. He also described a most unwieldy condition, partly due to capitalists using black laborers as strikebreakers, whenever serious trouble arises with the labor unions. This course of all this discussion was described in a later dispatch as follows:
The Third Internationale adopted a resolution declaring that the United States is destined to play an important part in the struggle of the African race for liberty and that inasmuch as America today is the center of the Negro culture of the world it is that country that the Communise campaign to bring freedom to the Negroes of all countries should be concentrated.
The resolution pledges the members of the Internationale to strive for the equality of Negroes and whites and for the full political and social freedom of the African race. "The Communists will use all their power and influence with trade unions," it continues, "to admit Negroes as members, and if necessary the Internationales will undertake a special campaign to achieve this aim. If these efforts fail the Internationales will organize special Negro unions to further the cause."
The cause of communism has not made much headway in the United States among the native born radicals. Its adherents are mostly to be found among those revolutionary of foreign birth, who have sought asylum here to put their radical theories into practice. Their leaders have kept up a boring in process to secure control of the great organizations of labor, the outcome of which is still undecided. Outside of a small but vociferous group or colored radicals, little stock, appears to have been taken in communistic agitation by members of the Negro race. The development of the race has so far been along lines tending to encourage individualism and capitalism rather than communism.

both upon the labor unions and the race remains to be seen.
A RELIGIOUS EVOLUTION.
In the "History of the Afro-American Group of the Episcopal Church," the Rev. George F. Bragg, D. D., its author, is amply justified in considering it a distinct contribution in the field of church literature. It is even more than that, in that it treats an important phase of the gradual evolution of the race along religious lines in assimilating the doctrines and worship of a denomination embodying the culture and traditions of centuries. Dr. Bragg brought to this task, which must have been truly a labor of love, the rine experience of some thirty years work as an editor and essayist, in addition to his service as historiographer of the Conference of Church Workers.
In addition to the author's brief preface there is an introduction by Bishop Bratton of Mississippi, in which he says: "What is needed from white friends and co-members of the church is the ability to recognize the transforming, regenerating power of grace working in the great Negro race, and the ready sympathy to help on the upbuilding, by honoring the strong, balanced, spiritual characters raised up by God to be the leaders and examples of their people. It is thus that people grow in grace as they grow in age."
Dr. Bragg in a fluent narrative style tells how, when the Church of England came to America, it sought to embrace all of the people, without respect to race. As a result of this policy we find within nine years from the consecration of the first presiding bishop, the first colored Episcopal parish was in successful persecution in Philadelphia with a membership of over four hundred persons and a man of the black race ordained as pastor. The incident leading to the organization of this congregation and the beginning of the first African church in America is told in detail, the author quoting from the manuscript left by Richard Allen, the founder of the African Methodist Episcopal Church.
After reviewing the status of religious instruction in early days in South Carolina, Maryland and Virginia, Dr. Bragg treats of the organized work in the North. Chapters are devoted to the history of the following churches: St. Thomas, Philadelphia; St. Philip; New York; St. James; Baltimore; Christ Church, Providence, R. I.; St. Luke's, New Haven; Crucifixion, Philadelphia; St. Matthew's, Detroit; St. Philip's, Newark; St. Phillip's, Buffalo. The doings of the general conventions of the church in 1608 and 1871 are considered in relation to the work of the Freedman's Commission and the changes due to the Civil War.
The vexing situation growing out of the ecclesiastical relations of the black man to the church at large and the findings of the "Sewance Conference" are given another chapter, while the origin of the Conference of Church Workers among Colored People is duly set forth. A chapter is devoted to some veteran friends, including Bishops Ashkinson, Lyman, Quintard, Dudley, Gen. S. C. Armstrong and others. Under the chapter headings of "Some Self-Made Strong Characters and Others" and "The Clergy Large Drives to Make" understand

nounced that the manager of Health
Charity had ordered that all per-
ing within the city and county in
vaccinated or be subject to a
penalty. It added:
Up to the present time the basic smallpox has not invaded our great and any great extent. But racial distinctions is not a species of immunity, and following the drastic order of the city authorities, issued no doubt as a principle of public policy, we hope all will allow injunction. Whatever else may be felt is plain that vaccination follows the line of the least resistance, and it provides security and safety lies therein in our bounded duty to accept it. Vaccination may prove that ounce of prevention universally recognized as far more potent than a pound of cure. We have boasted ourselves to be law-abiding citizens; let us prove it in this crucial part of our city's history.
The efficacy of vaccination properly performed as a preventive measure in the spread of this disease has been thoroughly tested as to have become an axiom of medical science. All prudent citizens should avail themselves of a method of fighting the epidemic.
An article in the Georgetown Times argued that British Guiana must take refuge in the banana industry in order to avoid bankruptcy. The article continued.
Our latent resources—and they are abundant—must be exploited. It will be worth our while therefore to take a page out of the leaf of the book of experience of Jamaica, and see whether with it, we cannot tap at least one of our laten resources. British industry must take refuge in the banana industry. It has saved Jamaica. It will save, at least, help to save British Guiana. It is the mainstay of some of the Central American colonies; it may be a prop of British Guiana. With the drainage our disposal we have thousands of a immediately available for cultivation. Given better drainage, sugar can be made from the sugar being abandoned. It there any reason why the lands should be locked up, sugar can't pay, then for goodness not let something which can do the thing. What is wanted is a good variety from disease; carrying ships and canals. Other things such as local means transportation will all come in time.
In view of the depression of the existing industries in many of the West Indian colonies, this suggestion for developing a new source of revenue would appear to be worth consideration.
A writer in the Afric American Diversity in raising the question "What is wrong with football at Con C. Smith University?" had this following to say about the part that these sports play in modern college colleges go principally upon intellectual standing, but a good ball and football team, which carry the major sports in college, have the many young men to that particular league. College boys like to boast of good ball team and their "what football team." It's part of a boy's life.
This writer might have made it for a winning football team stronger, as the daily papers have recorded the resignation of a Pennsylvania college president because of prestige on the graditon. While all sports do much to develop the prowess and college spirit, it is a condition if they are not allowed to memorialize too great a share of public.
The Northwest Bulletin, published St. Paul, Minn., commented favor on a recent example of what it is "Good Work." It said:
The overwhelming success of the business exhibition given by the St. Paul Negro Business League was both remarkable and a surprise to the people of this community. It was remarkable because it did for St. Paul something that has never been done by our people before—it demonstrated that our business men are alive and awake with times, that we too, can advertise St. Paul by our own accomplishments. It was also a surprise to its promoters a measure, and to those who thought the magnitude of the undertaking was great for an organization whose dated back only ten weeks. It was fine demonstration of cooperation and support.
On its front page the Bulletin carried two illustrations showing part of the twenty-five booths in which over twenty-five colored merchants arranged the fine exhibits. This stroke of enterprise should carry a message to local business

THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1922
En Franca por ejemplo, habrá podido admirar el Arco de Triumfo, las maravillas de la Torre Eiffel, las colecciones de sus muertos, la pantalla erudición de los sabios de la Sorbona, en Andalucía, la gracia tradicional de sus mujeres, en Madrid, las aparatosas corridas de torre festas de sol sangre y hierro, en que se pone de relieve el carácter aventuero del native español. En Yulia, matrina immortal del Arte, fuente sublime del Derecho y del cristianismo, sus templos y sus estatua, en Ynglasterra, la alterra, la niebla de sus dias en Venecia, su carnaval y sus gondolas, y en Suia, lo montañoso de sus regiones.
Aquí en la America del Norte, particulamente en Nueva York, entre otras supremas maravillas, encontrará la maravilla excelta de sus mujures. Estas por su diversidad de rasas, se contemplan en diferentes tipos.
Ya puede delleitarse con fruición el espíritu cuando se mire en sus inmenses como bellos parques o encantadoras playas, ora la mestiza de los explantes y negra cabellera, ora la juda de nariz erguda y pronunciado sengo, ora la native blanca, graciosa en su andar, ligera y elegante en el vestir, atrosa en sus modales; ora también la negra revelando en los contos imperfectos de su cuerpo, la potencia flisca no debilitada en sus martíres ni en sus sufrimientos.
Realmente es un espejo luminoso el que ofrece esta cosmopolita ciudad, en el se retratan tipos, rasas, costumbres y procedimientos, siempre nuevos para los que somos oriundos de otra parte de esta América Bendita. On cuantas veces en la contemplación observadora de tales mujeres me he sentido inclinado a disagraziones filosofas acerca de la muerte de seine nai.
La mujer americana, educada en un ambiente de libertad, no es la mujer de las republicas Centro y Sud americanas, es la mujer de libres contumbres, pero no de "costumbres libres," ella, seaforza, puede soller a encompasir de su amado, regresar a deshorsar de la noche a su hogar, en que el comentario maldiente de la crítica ponga publicamente una nota de muda a su virutí. Lila va sola al Taller, lo mismo que a un balle, a cuanto se le antojr, que los placeres licitos, no tienen restricción para disfrutarlo ella.
Mas hay que hacer constar, que la secula de esa libertad, bene su base en la educación general del pueblo americano. No no he visto en el tiempo que resido en Estados Unidos, un solo hombre "piropear" en la calle a una mujer que pasasepor su lado. No creo que esto se por virtud en los hombres, ni indiferencia en las mujeres. No, solo es respeto reciproco, impuesto por una educación que resonce el derecho aeno como pronio.
Preciamente, más me ha hecho meditar en la cuestión relacionada en la forma en que vive la mujer americana, la adaptación de sus trajes. Accepta la moda librente, sin preoccupaciones de ninguna clase. En su indumentaria, parece que la americana presta pocha importancia al descubrimiento de sus extremidades inferiores. Yo he visto las modas del verano pasado y del invierno último. En verano, es afecta al escoco. Yo pedida describilos, pero me abstengo de hacerlo, temeroso de incurir en pegado com los moralistas que probiben tales cosas, aunque las practiciones para satisfacer en personal. De todas maneras es una mujer admirable, ya sea en su trazo social, ya como amante. Si en los Estados Unidos no se puede admirar otras manifestaciones progressivas de la vida moderna, se pueden admirar la de sus feminas, como supremas notas de color admirable y de existamiento general.

Despues de haber reconocido su capacidad en uno de los delitos que le fuieron impuesta, Alfredo Lindsay está hoy bajo el peso de una condena no mayor de diez años ni menor de cinco. Les hecho son les siguientes: Este antiguo "gamo financiero" rebo a senoras de Nueva Yerk mas de medio milión de dolares que le fuieron entregadas para hacer inversiones. Entre sus visitas, una sola pérdida $125,000.
Al comparecer ante el juez Mancuso, Juez de las Sessions Generales, se mostro atónico ante la severidad de la sentencia, su asujeto no demotaba la plena conianza de que siempre estuvo poseido. El juez le dio: "Vd. ha hecho victimas a mujeres adineradas enganandolas y entreteniéndolas en el dinero de ellas mismas. Su crimen es igual al robo realizado por un saltteador de caminos. Verdad que es sus victimas eran ricas, pero Ud las ha dejado empobrecidas. Ud. robó también a la Sra. Lillan B. Duke, é investigaciones que he hecho demuestran que ni un solo centavo de tal dinero fue invertido. Actos de esta fndole si se permitieran, impedirán, a la gente hacer inversiones, y resultarian en perjuicio de los negocios mercantiles de nuestra ciudad. Un hombre de su capacidad unfiera tenido éxito en negotiation, pero Ud guió vía comodamente robando y, ahora va a coacher el frunto de su crimen."

esto, el abogado de Lindsay, Heap Goldstein, didenom clementa para su cliente, diciendo que este haria restimación completa del dinero a sus víctimas, si la Corte le diera oportunidad.
Declaró el abogado que la unica propiedad que Lindsay posee es una casa en South Nyack, la cual la Sra. Lindsay estaba dispuesta a entregar a la víctima de su exposo; pero Ricardo C. Wilson, Asaude en la Procuración, quien hizo contesar al corrector su culpabilidad después, de su detención en Febrero pasado, señaló que el acusado habia robado más de $500,000 y que los servicios que le habia perstado al Gobierno con sus testimonios en contra de las personas que aquí hemos salgado, estaban plegados con la consideración de habar accepido su culpabilidad en una sola de las nutse acusaciones que sobre el pesaban.

One of the most incredible things that ever happened in the history of purely partisan political affairs in this country is the audacity of the Democrats. Governor of the State of Louisiana, as governor supporter of all the people of that State, is boldly going to Washington and making demand upon the Chief Executive of the United States to remove from office a person that the President himself appointed to administer the affairs of a bureau of the federal government in Louisiana, on the grounds that the appointee is a Negro who must come in contact with white people in his official capacity and is therefore obnoxious and offensive to the white people of the State and the South.
No attack is made on the character or the appointee; no charge is made that he is disreputable, none that he is not a citizen in good standing in the State, none that he is making other than an honorable living as a man and father; none that he lives by playing politics alone, or that he is a carpet-bagger, a fomester of strife, a preacher of rage or class, hatred. No, the governor presents none of these charges against the appointee, because none of them could be substantiated, none of them could be upheld in any court of justice.
But he attacks the appointee's color.
Sundred dollars was realized to help swell the fund for a new school-building. Eventually, a more commodious building must be erected. If parents realized the severe handicap under which Prot Beck and his teachers are working—with the school housed in tour-separate buildings—they would awake from their lethargy and remedy existing conditions.

States Senate.
The action of the Governor of Louisiana in this brazen demand upon the Chief Executive of the nation to remove Mr. Cohen from office is the lowest piece of pure demagogery ever attempted in this country and cannot be described in decent English language.
But it was the ambition that Governor Parker has to become U.S. Senator from Louisiana, more than his desire to垫 the state of the Ku Klux Klan, or to defeat the Appointment of Walter L. Cohen as Comptroller of Customs, that persuaded the governor to do this incredible think, and incidentally to执 his own political career in this state, for that is found to be the effect of his disastrous step. Going to Washington ostensibly to request of the president the removal of Walter L. Cohen from the position of Comptroller of Customs because Cohen is a Negro, but really to get the Department of Justice to take over the affairs of the State of Louisiana with himself as dictator for the Department of Justice, and as such free to elect himself U.S. Senator while administering the affairs of the State for the U.S. government, Governor Parker found his Don Quixotic plans had been disrupted by the untimely publication broadcast of the real purpose of his visit, which was naturally enough denounced from the housetop by other wildewake aquarium for the semenal job in Washington and in the State.
Then he shifted the real purpose of his visit and made the ostensible the real, but too late for the shift to do any good for him. Without the U. S. government backing it, as dictator Governor Parker had no chance to be elected Senator from Louisiana. Every novice in politics in Louisiana, much less any one here with political agility, knows this, so of course Governor Parker knows it, and hence his despair move to bring about martial law with himself as grand marshal and the disastrous failure of his Quincy plan. The shame following the failure of his attempted coup de clat has made him declare on his return home that he is not a candidate for any job. None of the politicians in Louisiana believe Parker. If he was going to Washington to ask the removal of Mr. Cohen he would have announced his purpose with less restraint at home than in Washington. But the asking of the removal of Cohen was not the main purpose of his visit as he declared after he was housed in his own petard.

Lincoln brought the ball up the field for twenty two yards and pointed. Howard recovered the kick on her 40-yard line, and after making several test downs, lost the ball no Lincoln's 14-yard line. Lincoln lost the ball on a fumble.

Howard's star quarterback, tried to kick the goal for the extra point which would have tied the score, but was unsuccessful.
Howard made 20 first downs to 6 by Lincoln, but the Lions seemed to be the equal of their opponents whenever their goal was threatened, and several times their line held when their opponents were within a few yards of the goal line. The start of the game was E. A. Bird, the seventh year of Lincoln's man who can hit yards for the first touchdown. Bird was accounting for McLain at quarterback, and played a brilliant game. W. Brown played a star game for Lincoln at halfback. Doughy, Long and Captain Holliday. W. Hamm played the best game for Howard.

In the first round after two minutes of fighting, Bateson of the three teams brought me up through the fence. "I'm not sure you're not hurt."
"I was in a trance throughout the second round, discussing with myself whether I should be武 right. George wasn't hurting me, although he reached me with two hard rights to the jaw which caused the rongee spectators to grunt much harder than I.
At the beginning of the third round I had only dunked I would take it so carefully as agreed. No way was in my mind that the third and fourth place will win them before Google, but my hard effort to give me a chance to good work was going on then but in the dark, and I said, If there goes I despair to have the same faults but to stay there.

MOREHOUSE DEFEATS
KNOWVILLE COLLEGE
(Bspecial To The New York Age)
Knoxville, Tenn.-On Friday, November 24, before the largest crowd ever witnessing an athletic contest on the Knoxville College athletic field, Morehouse College of Atlanta, easily defeated Knoxville College, 25 to 0. Capt. Robinson of Knoxville won the toss and kicked off to Capt. Gayles, who returned the ball to the 35 yard line. The maroon and white Tigers began a march down the field to Knoxville's goal, and were halted on the 22 yard line. Knoxville made two attempts to break through the defense of the visitors and was forced to kick on the fourth down. Here the Tigers were not to be denied longer and opening a bewildering attack of double passes, delayed passes and end runs with a forward pass of 23 yards, C. Kelly to Gayles, brought the halt to Knoxville's four yard line for first down. C. Kelly went over for the touchdown, but missed the extra point on an attempted drop kick.
With the beginning of the second quarter, Morehouse opened with a new formation and carried the ball over for a touchdown on a pretty 25 yard run by Gentry, but the ball was brought back and Morehouse penalized 15 yards for holding Morehouse lost the ball on downs and Knoxville on the first play kicked to the middle of the field and Gentry was downed in his cracks. Again Morehouse started a march to the goal line and after four consecutive first downs Gentry went over for a touchdown, and Kelly added a point with a forward pass to Gayles. At this point Coach Harvey sent in the entire second team and for the rest of half they battled on equal tears with Knoxville.
Morehouse scored in the third quarter on a beautiful end run by quarterback Harper of 35 yards. A forward pass was incomplete for the extra point. A few minutes after the beginning of the fourth quarter Kelly went over for the fourth and last touchdown, and the end

LYNN MASS
Lynn, Mass—Miss C. Isolene Tullake has completed the three year Hour Making Course at Essex Agricultural School, graduating from that institution on Tuesday afternoon.
Thank-giving exercises were served in all departments at Bethleigh Church.
The office of The New York Age and B.B. and Jim Slater of the C. V. B. A. rooms, have been flooded with inquiries this week following insistent but utterly false reports that Aubrey Lyles of the original "Shuffle Along" Company, now playing in Chicago, had suddenly died. Telegraphic inquiries sent to Chicago quickly brought word to the effect that Mr. Lyles, as well as his partners, Miller Sosse and Blake, was in good health and very much alive. It appears that some young woman, claiming to be employed as a maid by the Pullman Company, running between New York and Chicago, on Sunday last night, the false report around to various places. Her identity, however, has not been discovered.

Jamaica Kid, the veteran light heavyweight, won the light heavyweight championship of the National Guard at the 15th Armory on Tuesday night, December 5, when he defeated John Lester Johnson in a close twelve round bout. The bout was close throughout, but the Kid was the aggressor in almost every round and had a shade over his opponent in offensive fighting. Both fighters were in good condition and Johnson showed cleverness in defensive work. Their weights were, Johnson 180¼ pounds and Jamaica Kid 173½.
Kid Powell of the 369th scored a knockout over Tommy Hilliard of the 102nd Regiment in the second round of the scheduled six round semifinal bout. Hilliard went down from a stiff right punch to the stomach, apparently in great pain. The referee counted him out and he was examined by Dr. Fitz Nearon, the regimental physician, but there was no evidence of a foul blow. Both these fighters are lightweights.
In the first preliminary bout, Johnny Johnson, 121 1-4, of the 369th, was awarded the judges' decision over Harry Robinson, 123, of the 71st, after four rounds of comparatively slow fighting. Earl Jackson of the 369th knocked out Earl Domy, also of the 369th, in the second round of the next four round preliminary bout. Kid Fredericks, 152, knocked out Willie Knight in the fourth round of the third bout, and Henry Shaw scored a knockout over Kid Washington in the fourth round of the other preliminary bout. Shaw gives promise of becoming one of the best men of his weight, and has knocked out all of his opponents since he has been fighting at this armory. He weighs 148 1/4 pounds and his opponent weighed 143. The bout were witnessed by an unusually large crowd, which included many well known theatrical people and leaders in the boxing profession. Harry Wills was introduced from the ring and received a big ovation. Barney Williams was the referee of all of the bouts.
"Seven-Eleven" at Lafayette Theatre
The attraction at the Lafayette Theatre, starting Monday, December 11, for one week only, is the syncopated musical comedy, entitled "Seven-Eleven." Unlike the usual entertainment of this sort it has a real book and score. While in the majority of the numbers, jazz and syncopation predominate, the ensemble and finales are exceptionally well sung by the large company.
The company includes such well known stars as Garland Howard, Mae Brown, Sam Cook, Speedy Smith, Mason and Bailey, Allen and Jones, A. B. DeComitiere, Hilaria Friend, Barrington Carter, Evon Robinson, and a well-trained chorus of twenty-five beautiful girls that can sing and dance.
There is no question but what "Seven-Eleven" will prove to be one of the best musical comedys that has played the Lafayette Theatre this season.
There will be a matinee Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, and a midnight show Friday with special added attractions. Get your seats early.
"Seven-Eleven" will positively only appear for one week.

Lincoln Defends Wilberforce
Philadelphia, Pa.—Before a large and enthusiastic crowd the Lincoln Lions defeated the heavy Wilberforce team 13-12 on Saturday, November 8. The Lions scored a touchdown within the first five minutes. Morgan kicked off for Lincoln. Wilberforce fumbled, and the ball was recovered by Skinker. By four flings and end runs on the part of Brown and Wilson, the ball was soon over. In the second quarter Wilberforce attempted a forward pass which was intercepted by "Bullet" Wilberforce who ran 40 yards for a touchdown. The first half ended, Lincoln 13, Wilberforce 0.
In the second half Wilberforce came up and played like a brand new team, the Lincoln slumped considerably. The team failed to tackle properly and were quality of numerous fumbles. While on short 40 yard line, McLean of Lincoln pointed; the ball, was caught by a Wilberforce man who ran down the field along the side liner for a touchdown. Wilberforce failed to kick the goal. It was now so dark that it was hardly possible to see either the ball or the playa. Following several fumbles, Wilberforce had the ball on Lincoln's 25 yard line. After two successful forwards prosecute and line play, Wilberforce could carry the ball over. An attempt to pull the ball point by all off tackles

MAKING COLORED DOLLS
A LUCRATIVE BUSINESS
Several years ago in the city of Los Angeles, Calif., a colored girl named Allone became the maid for the biggest designer and manufacturer of dolls in the West and one of the largest in this country. By continual contact with the doll business, she became interested in this work and began to design doll clothes during her spare hours. She showed such skill and aptitude for this kind of work that she soon ceased to be a maid and gave all of her time to the designing of doll clothes and the manufacture of dolls.
In this way Mine Allone gained the experience which enabled her to establish the Mine Allone Doll Manufacturing Company at 2706 Seventh avenue. When she began the manufacture of colored dolls, practically all colored dolls were the regular white painted brown, but her dolls are made of a colored composition which give them a natural color and also make them unbreakable. She has also improved on the hair and dress of the colored doll, and her walking and talking dolls are as beautiful as any dolls in this country.
She loves her work and believes that it is doing much to foster and stimulate race pride among the children of the race. Her business was established in Harlem less than two years ago, but since the close of the Berry and Ross establishment, she has been doing the largest volume of business of any colored doll manufacturer in the city. She is now having her most successful season.

TALLADEGA AND MORRIS
BROWN TIE; SCORE 6-6
Before several thousand football fans both from Talladega and Atlanta and Birmingham, Talladega and Morris Brown played to a 6-0 tie at Rickwood Park in Birmingham on Friday, November 17. The game was fiercely fought from beginning to end. The Talladega boys after losing two games, came back and showed their old time form. Edwards, the Talladega fullback, smashed through the Morris Brown defense for a touchdown in the first quarter on a line plunge. After that the game was hard fought. The Morris Brown team with their powerful shift continually marched down the field for gains but lacked the punt to carry the ball over until the last half when Talladega attempted to punt out of danger, the ball was blocked and recovered by Morris Brown which gave them a touchdown. Neither team kicked goal.
The Taladega team is strong but has been unable to play consistently this year partly due to the loss of letter men of last year among whom were Rivers, Cotton, Cole, Wright, and Child. The line has been an experiment all the season but under the careful guidance of the veteran coach, Bragg, the team hopes to come back next year.

• NEWS OF THE CHURCHES •
Fleet St. Church, Brooklyn
The inclement day, did not prevent a large audience being present Sunday morning. Nor did Dr. Brown's indisposition disappoint that audience His them was "The Mother Bird," while the sermon was a practical treatise on modern times. The pastor was most emphatic in denouncing the Senators of the United States Senate, in the recent action in regards the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. In his own mind he doubted its constitutional status, but the moral back of the bill was sufficient cause for the Christ to weep were He to have visited Washington and heard the cheap talk and pussyfooting of men pledged to safeguard the liberty and life of the citizens, who live under the constitution of these United States. There was an anguishing sympathetic murmur from an audience that was well in accord with the sermon and the solution that the Lord alone can bring peace out of the present world's turmoil. At the end of the sermon, Bishop Lee was introduced.
At 1 p.m. the Sunday-school rally was held with pleasing results. The Rev. T. S. Hirten of Holy Trinity Baptist Church preached for 4 o'clock ladies at 3 p.m. He had an appreciative audience.
At 7 45 the Rev. A J Sharkley of Indianapolis, Ind., was the speaker, choosing his text from Judges 14 14, theme, "Unexpected Good." The Christian Endeavor Society, under Mrs. G. C. Brown has entered into the season's work with a great deal of enthusiasm. The weekly program have an upward trend, which means that each Sunday evening something unusually good and interesting is presented.

The morning service of Bridge Street Church was attended Sunday, December 3, by the usual large congregation. Presiding Elder, Rev. C. P.

He commended the pastor, Rev. E. Tyler or the good work he has done during his short pastorate and was pleased at the progress and condition of the church. Rev.

First Emmanuel Church
Easter Bolden preached a multilingual sermon on Sunday morning. He took for his text, St. Matthew, 10th chapter, first part of the 10th verse, which reads, "That the kingdom come." He said that when our Lord taught his apostles how to pray and the things to pray for, He outlined a model for the prayer-life of all believers in Him. The kingdom idea like the others in the prayer, was not only to be ideal and an unrealized hope, but it was to something that they should pray for until it manifested itself in their own consciousness. Our Lord the Emmanuel knew that the apostles, His disciples and the succeeding generations of believers, in Him could, through prayer, make manifest and visible the Kingdom of God. The delay of the visible reality of this kingdom in the world of humanity is due to the unwillingness of man to make it real."

THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1922.
Vice Principal P. S. 119 Doad.
The students, members of the Parents Association, and friends of Public School 119, Mrs. Harriet Tupper, principal, were shocked to learn of the death of Mrs. Catherine J. Healy, vice principal of this school. Her death occurred on Saturday, December 2, after a month's illness, and her funeral was held on Monday, December 4.

Her work as a teacher was of the highest order, and she was interested in saving the children more prompt and in raising the scholastic standing of the school. Her kindness helped her one of their best friends. The taze cannot afford to lose friends like Mrs. Healy, who was absolutely without color prejudice and never hesitated to take a stand for the right no matter what the personal consequences were.
Mrs. Tupper, the principal, paid a warm and sincere tribute to her coworker, declaring her services had been invaluable. It is the earnest desire of all concerned that Mrs. Healy's successor will be a woman of similar type of character.

OBJECTIVE
BOCOLENNAN—In remembrance of our
devoted husband and father, RIDDLE
M. BOCOLENNAN, D. who departed this
life on November 30, 1921.
Just a few short years, after he had
given up professional life, a
improved life, he was called from earth,
into joy, birthless in heaven.
Not changed but glorified; Oh beautiful jasmine.
For us who weep,
Mountain the loss of our departed one,
Fallen sleep.
Hushed into silence, never more to comfort us or,
The hearted men;
done, like the sunshine of another country,
Beyond your kin.
O' degree dead, we see thy white soul bright with the beauty and celestial glory of an immortal grace.
What wonder that we stumble, faint and sigh with fears.
Since thou hast left us alone with sorrow and blind with tears?
We find the while other life's waters.
We seek the land.
Missing thy sense, thy touch and the true helping of thy hand.
Still through the storm and tempest, safely anchored.
Just on the other side.
We find the while looking through death's shadows.
Not changed but glorified.
WIFE AND BABY.

In sad but loving remembrance of the beloved son, grandson, nephew who peacefully passed this life December 6, 1917, volunteered at the age of 16 years, died in the Holy Name Cemetery, Jersey City, by the name of his sister, Mrs. Mamie Fonval, who died in February 1914.
Hours of sadness still come over the hidden tears so often flow. Memory keeps him ever near us. Though we are not here to miss you, my Son, I is ours to miss you, my Son, day and night we miss you there. But his god who hath bereaved us, and he rests in our hearts. Yet again we pray to meet thee, when the day of life has fled. Then in heaven there is joy we will greet, thee, where no farewell tears are shed.
In loving remembrance from Sutter, Grandmother, grandson.
