Lawrence Lowell of Harvard University is to have his way, that great institution of learning, which has always stood as a representative of the rights of mankind, without regard to race, color, creed or condition, will in future extend its welcome to members of other races than the Negro. This was brought out in a plain, definite manner when President Lowell wrote Roscoe Conkling Bruce, an honor graduate of Harvard, son of the late Senator Blanch Kelso Bruce of Mississippi, who was also a former Register of the United States Treasury, that Roscoe Conkling Bruce's son could not be accepted as a resident in the Freshman Halls, even though residence in that building for students is compulsory.

It is a thing, may I add in all cander, which all self-respecting Americans of color do not desire. And, be assured, no son of man will ever deny his name of his blood or his tradition. "To provecthe a youth because of his race is a procedure an novel at Harvard until your administration as it is unscientific. However unpopular the Jew, the Irishman and the Negro may be in certain minds and certain sections and at certain times (wartime not being one), the fact remains that the distribution of human excellence in each of these races as in the case of every other race, begins at zero and ends at infinity. Shall Harvard Be Less Humane? "The differences in racial excellence consists in the comparative numbers of individuals to be found in the higher reaches of the vast curve upward of human quality and serviceability. And to assess the relative values of the several stocks of mankind en masse is, one must concede, an exceedingly delicate and diffuse, indeed perilous task. "Who shall describe a Straus, a Thunkett or a Douglass because of his race? The particular individual may be a personality of charm and power and prospect absolutely apart from the theoretical frequency of inferiorities in the race. From Kindergarten to university, I wouldain believe, the spirit of education approaches children and youth as individuals, not as racial symbols. Even courts of law deal with men upon their ascertained merits as individuals. Shall a world famed nursery of the humanities be less humane? "After Charles W. Elliott, Harvard cannot escape the grave responsibilities of leadership in American life. And one leads by ascent to higher levels after the manner of scholar and statesman, of poet and prophet; not by descent. Two Unfortunate Words. "To me, whose personal indebtedness to Harvard is immeasurable, the university is neither a mere mechanism of instruction nor a social club, but a center of enlightenment and idealism and service rendered holy by aspiring centuries. "Few words in the English language, I submit, are susceptible of more poignant abuse than two you have seen fit to employ. The first is "race"; the second, "necessity." As the one is often nothing more than a term of social convenience, so the other is quite often a means of buttress prejudice. But, veritas is less elusive." Graduates Meet President. Concissent with the giving out of these letters, a meeting was held at the Harvard Club, 27 West 44th street, Manhattan, attended by President Lowell and a group of prominent Harvard graduates. Among these men were several who had signed a memorial last June, which was sent to Harvard alumni all over the United States, declaring that Harvard is swinging to a Jim Crow policy to please students from southern states, holding President Lowell responsible for the anti-Negro attitude. Details of the meeting on January 10 indicate that attitude of those present was that no student should be barred from full participation in the student life of the university and that the matter will not be dropped. However, President Lowell had already replied to Mr. Bruce, reiterating his decision that young Bruce would not be given accommodations in the Freshman Hall. President Lowell's second letter was as follows: "I am sorry that you do not feel the NEW YORK, N. Y., SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923. MRS.

So farewell services will be held the next day. The Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor, will lead his flock from the lower reaches of the city to a higher section—for they are already well advanced on the task of erecting a new house of worship in West 180th street at Seventh avenue. The new home is not yet ready for occupancy, so Dr. Powell and his congrregation have been compelled to make temporary arrangements for continuing church services. Beginning Sunday, January 28, and each Sunday thereafter, Abyssinian Church will hold its morning service at the Palace Casino, 153rd street and Madison avenue, now known as the Commonwealth Casino and morning service will be held in the vestry of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, the use of which has been hospitably extended to the Abyssinian membership by Rev.

Former Congressman Walter M. Chandler is the Republican candidate for reelection, and Republicans in all parts of the district are rallying to his support. At the Central Republican Club on Monday night, January 15, an enthusiastic meeting was held in the interest of Congressman Chandler's candidacy. The meeting was presided over by David B. Costuma, leader of the 19th Assembly District, and after impressing the importance of the election upon the captains and workers present, he urged them to work diligently in behalf of the Republican candidate. Congressman Chandler was present and pledged his service to the people if elected. A number of other workers spoke, and many Republicans from other districts volunteered their services to go into the district and do what they could to aid in the election of their candidate. All of the readers of The Age in the 19th Congressional District are urged to vote at this election on January 30. one week respectively.

GEORGIA PASTOR SAYS PEOPLE ARE LEAVING The New York Age is in receipt of a letter from the Rev. William A. McCloud of Wadley, Ga., pastor First Baptist Church, Stillmore, Ga., president Walker Baptist Association, declaring that members of his church, convention and association, with their friends, are leaving that section daily for the North, West and other places. "Since the Anti-Lynching Bill was killed," writes Rev. McCarthy, "the Negroes are anxious to leave the South more than ever. They are coming to me seeking advice as to where to get jobs in the North and West. Will they touch with the firms who want laborers, so I can give them proper advice? The better class of whites are all to pieces to know what to do, but nothing can be done about it. Our people are determined to leave Old Georgia." I. H. Nutter Is Barred (Special To, The New York Age) Atlantic City, N. I.—Reformation of the Republican party in Atlantic City was begun on the first of the year, and the colored clubs have been reorganizing and several new clubs have been formed. The Young Men's Republican Club, with Attorney Walter Comer at president, and the Atlantic City Independent Colored Citizen's League, with Dr. Wilson, president, are new political organizations among the colored citizens. It is alleged that Attorney Isaac H. Nutter, for a long time prominent in Republican politics here, made application for membership in each of these organizations, but both were unfavorably acted upon. Sheriff Loans Jack Johnson $122 to Make Up Sum Needed Jack Had $250 in His Pocket, But Balance Old Debt Was $355, Costs, $17.50, Total $372.50, and It Had To Be Paid The New York Amsterdam News has taken exception to a news story carried in THE AGE of January 13, under the headlines, "HOTEL OLGA HEAD SUITS N. Y. AMSTERDAM NEWS," the news story declaring the suit was based on a false story published by the Amsterdam News to the effect that the Hotel Olga had been raided. In a letter to Fred R. Moore, editor of THE AGE, William Kelly, editor and manager of the Amsterdam News, says that the article carried by his paper did not state that the Hotel Olga was raided, "but that a room at the Hotel Olga was raided." After asking that a retraction be published on front page of THE AGE, Mr. Kelly writes: "Furthermore, we are compelled to request that you retract the statement that a suit has been instituted against the New York Amsterdam Nets for $16,000 damages by Edward H. Wilson, proprietor of the Hotel Olga, because up to this date (January 13) no such notice has been served upon us." Information as to the suit was given THE AGE by Mr. Wilson himself, who called in person at THE AGE office, as did Judge Raymond, his legal representative. Mr. Wilson sat, on Wednesday morning, January 17, that a demand made on January 5 upon the Amsterdam News for retraction of the original publication had not been complied with and that papers in a label suit against that newspaper, were being prepared and would be filed without delay. Jack Johnson, the former world's champion heavyweight pugilist, was in the office of Sheriff Percy E. Nagle on Tuesday, faced with the alternative of paying a balance of $355 on an old debt or going to Ludlow Street Jail. And there were court costs of $17.50, making a total of $72.50. But Jack only had $250 in his pocket, even though his $10,000 car was parked outside and there seemed to be a million dollars worth of gold parked in his showy teeth. Justice Tierney of the Supreme Court had signed a commitment against the fighter in a suit won by Barney Gearard, theatrical manager, for $1,400, all of which had been paid save the $555. Now this balance had to be paid or Jack would have to go to jail. Deputy Sher- (Special To The New York Age) Philadelphia, Pa.-Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner of the A. M. E.

Negotiations were begun with outside interests for raising the needed $122 and while this was being done, Sheriff Nagle invited Johnson into his private office. The sheriff is a big man physically, topping Jack by, several inches, and he proved himself a big man in every way when he learned the situation. He immediately offered a personal loan to Jack of the necessary amount, and the offer was quickly accepted by the smiling pugilist in the same spirit in which it was offered. Deputy Sheriff Conlin was paid the entire amount due, the debt was satisfied. Jack shook hands with Sheriff Nagle and other friends, then he lighted a fresh cigar and drove away in his glittering gas charc CHANGE DATE FOR CADET BAND RECITAL The public demonstrated, scheduled originally for January 26 by the newly formed cadet band of the 300th Infantry under Lieut. Mikell has been changed to the evening of Friday. February 2, because there would be an unavoidable conflict with the date of closing the winter term of the city public schools. The hope of Lieut. Mikell and his coworkers is especially to enlist the interest of a large number of the boys who are in school, so the date has been set back a week that all of the boys may have opportunity of hearing the program which is being prepared by the thirty or more boys now making up the nucleus of the band which will eventually number at least one hundred little race boys. All boys and their parents are invited to be present at the free concert at 300th armory, 132nd street and Seventh avenue, Friday evening, February 2, at 8:30 o'clock.

Up to Saturday, January 13, academy were four Brooklyn colored, included looking after the billiard applied with balls, chalk, cues, etc. that Age, matters came to a climax on Law Saturday. Always a busy day, with tables in great demand, a number of wouldbe customers were sitting around waiting for an opportunity to secure a vacant table. One group was composed of five men, four white and one colored all well dressed, well behaved men, one of the white men being owner of the building in which the academy is located, it is said, the young colored man being in his employ. This group first had lunch, all sitting and eating together at the lunch counter. Then they went over to one of the tables and made preparation to enjoy a friendly section. The colored girl, in whose section their table happened to be, went over to the manager's desk to secure the necessary cue ball. Then came the first intimation that all was not as it should be. In moreullen and angry mood, "Bill" told the girl to tell the men he could find no ball. She did not understand. There in front of her was the box with a number of balls in it. She repeated her request for a ball and again "Bill" said tell the men he could find no ball. Realizing that the manager was trying to shift to her the unpleasant duty of insulting wouldbe patrons, the girl finally left the desk and went to one of the other girls and told her what "Bill" had said. This girl, more experienced, as it happened, immediately saw through "Bill's" game, and she advised the first girl, "Don't do as he told you, but go over to the table and tell one of the white men to go and see the manager himself." Hesitating and timid, the girl finally went back to her table. When asked for the cue ball, she told the men that "Bill" would not send them one. Asked for a reason, she told them they probably knew. It dawned on them that they were being discriminated against because of the presence of the young colored man. They looked around. At one table the players included a Chinaman, at another there were two men whose dress indicated them to be street cleaners or trash cart inen, just off duty, and there were a number of players whose costumes lacked both cleanliness and neatness. Then they looked at their colored companion. He was scripturally clean, his clothes were in perfect order, neat and in good taste. As a matter of fact, of the group of five, even including his employer, the colored man was the best dressed and the most attractive looking. Discuss at the action of Irish "Bill" Hallan, the manager, rose up within them. "To h—I with Bill," said one of them; "we can play anywhere," we don't have to play in this place; come on, let's go." And the men left. Three of the four colored girls employed there were on duty. The fourth was not due until later in the day. As the men left the room, the girls realized that "Bill's" main object was to humilitate a decent, respectable young fellow, their brother in blood. They began to think of, other things. Of an order, for instance, issued by "Bill," that a girl wanting to drink a glass of water must take the glass into a little cuddy-hole, designated a "dressing room," which was really a part of the room in which the toilet was located. Another order prohibited the girls from eating at the lunch counter, although any street sweeper, longshoreman, janitor, Chinese, Japan, or what not, was a welcomed customer. Then they thought of suggestive innuendos, indirect advances, masked phrases indicating lustful inclinations—and then indication and contempt arose within their breasts. The one to whom the manager had refused the hall gave utterance to the crymialization of her thought: "Let's strike!" Room rent had to be paid; food had to be bought; the Holidays, with increased demands, had just passed; but there was the method by which "Bill" of the Recreation Billiard Academy and his employer, Frank Dwyer, and all the other "Bills" of similar type, could be shown that the Negro has race price, moral fibre and dignity of action. "LET'S STRIKE!" And the phrase found a response in the breasts of the other two girls. "WE'RE GAME!" they said. Off came their aprons, hats and criff protectors. On went their hats and coats and gloves. Then to the manager's desk. "What do you want?" asked that surprised official. "Our money," said the girls. And then the Irishman "Bill" discovered that at least three of the colored girls who had been working there were also WOMEN. For it was Saturday, the regular pay day, and the pay envelopes lay in the cash, drawer, ready to hand, only it was just 2 o'clock, not 4, when these girls would have been through with their week's work. And "Bill" refused to pay them, saying they would have to wait until 4 o'clock. But if they waited until 4, they would simply be quitting, whereas by leaving at 2, they were registering their protest against conditions which were objectionable and in so doing they proclaimed their womanhood. So they left without their money—but they carried with them their Pride, their Self-Respect, and their Moral Laundry. --- Abandonment of Race Charged Because of Howard's Letter Neval H. Thomas Tells Washington Audience That Perry Howard Should Be a True Representative of Race and Tell Dominant Power our Wants Drawing Color Line, Harvard President Arouses Graduates PAGE TWO Abandonment o Because of H Neval H. Thomas Tells W Perry Howard Should of Race and Tell Dom (Special To The New York Age) Washington, D. G.—"What will the Senate, and even Senator DuPont himself, think of Negro statesmanship when a man holding the highest executive appointment the race has received has no higher sense of responsibility to his constituency than to surrender it to the mob?" was the question hurled at Perry W. Howard by Neval H. Thomas, when the latter was denouncing before a large audience at the Y. M. C. A. on Sunday afternoon the letter recently made public alleged to have been written by Howard to Senator DuPont of Delaware, in which the colored official from Mississippi expressed opposition to passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill because it was being supported by the N. A. A. C. P. Mr. Thomas scored the abandonment of the race by Mr. Howard in the nationwide fight for the Dyer Bill. He recalled that Howard wrote letters to Senator DuPont and other Senators, asking that no support be given the bill because the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was leading the fight for it. This letter, said Mr. Thomas, furnished a good reason for lack of action by Senators who were already lukewarm in attitude toward the Bill. Mr. Thomas charged that when the letter was discovered, to Mr. Howard's surprise, the latter was posing as a friend of the Bill. Being uncloaked by the unexpected publication of his letter, termed by him a "private letter," charged Mr. Thomas, the reply was made, by Mr. Howard in a letter to the press and in a speech before the Y. M. C. A., was a series of evasions, mud-slinging and preposterous claims of having grown poorer in race service, and even implied that the DuPont letter was written by a helpless secretary. Continuing, Mr. Thom: "said: 'I am truly glad that the Senate has on its permanent record the statesmanship of Revels, Druc. c. Lynch, Rainy, Robert Brown Elliott, and other Negro political leaders of the Reconstruction, so that it can see that Perry Howard in no way interprets the aplendid idealism of the Negro. Read the eloquent, learned and race-lowly, speech of Robert Brown Elliott in the American Congress on Charles Summer's last birthday, January 6, 1874, and compare it with the coarse, grovelling, demagogic rot of Perry Howard. Howard must remember that he holds no private position. He is in his high position in recognition of our existence and ballot in this country, hence he should be our ambassador to the court of power to tell these who dominate this country what the Negro wants. Instead he has flown in the face (on the sly, however, as he never expected to be found out) of the unanimous wish and aspiration of the race he is supposed to represent. My friends don't think that this discovery will make any change in the spirit and loyalty of Perry Howard. It will Drawing Color L President Aro (Continued from First Page) reasonableness of our position about the Freshman dormitories. It is not a departure from the past to refuse to compel white and colored men to room in the same building. We owe to the colored man the same opportunities for education that we do to the white man; but we do not owe to him to force him and the white into social relations that are not, or may not be, mutually congenial. "Would Increase Prejudice." "We give him freely opportunities for room and board wherever it is voluntary; but it seems to me that for the colored man to claim that he is entitled to have the white man compiled to live with him is a very unfortunate innovation which, far from doing him good, would increase a prejudice that, as you and I will thoroughly agree, is most unfortunate and probably growing. "On the other hand, to maintain that compulsory residence in the Freshman dormitories—which has proved a great benefit in breaking up the social cliques that did muds injury to the college—should not be established for 90% per cent. of the students because the remaining one-half of 1 per cent could not properly be included, seems to me an untenable position. "Regretting very much that we should not agree upon the wisdom of the policy adopted for the Freshman dormitories, I am. "Very truly yours." B. e's Second Letter. To this letter Mr. Bruce replied in a dignified, thoughtful enjule that took cognizance of the increase of prejudice referred to by Mr. Lowell, but begged that Harvard should not become a party to its growth. He wrote as follows: "Yes, the wind just now is blowing in the direction of increased prejudice toward Americans of African descent. The same phenomenon is observable in the case of Irish, Catholics and of Jews. But the course of high-minded leadership is not determined by the shifting of such winds. Harvard is under no obligation, yet inform me, to 'force' the man of color and the white man into 'social relations that are not, or may not be, mutually congenial.' The soothing of boys in the same building is the present case: Social Intimacy Voluntary. "When I go to New York-City I stop it at the Astor. Should I reach Boston tomorrow I should stop at the Parker, House. In either of these buildings here may be at the same time men and romen of pure Angelo-Saxon blood and addition from the Southern States. We live for the time being under the same cool. We walk the same hills and more. We lie in the same hoily. A social relation is constituted thereby in the same sense that residence in the same simply make him more careful. After this he won't write; he will talk. Can he not see that the race is against him? When he entered this hall the other Sunday to explain himself there was not a single hand-clap in the vast audience, and Pickens' reply was frequently interrupted with thunderdus applause. "Thing of his alibi! He says his letter to the Senators was a private letter. A private letter written to big public men on a fundamental public issue. That alibi is as stupid as it is dishonest. He says again that his secretary wrote it How false, yet his faithful, but helpless secretary must not say a word. "Let Perry Howard have his fine properties in Chicago, his plantations in Mississippi, his cash and fine position at our expense, but let us keep the faith of the fathers and submerge every selfish consideration in the single thought of service of our noble race. "Mr. Howard is certainly an enlightened leader. He told Senators not to pass the Anti-Lynching Bill because the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was sponsor for it, and was leading the fight. In other words he said that he wanted his race, and even his own little children, exposed to the flames of the savage mob because our great organization was spending its soul and treasure in their defense. Yet this is the great organization which only this week stood before the Supreme Court of the United States in defense of the outraged victims of personal and judicial lynching in the benighted State of Arkansas. The learned lawyer, a devoted lover of his fellow man, the Hon. Morehouse Storey secured a unanimous decision against residential segregation from this same tribunal four years ago without one cent's expense to the colored people. At this very hour he, as one of the most illustrious of Harvard's great alumni, is leading the fight against President Lowell's Ku Klux policy in that great seat of learning. Yet this is the organization, and this is the mighty man whose efforts to save our country Mr. Howard wants the Senate to ignore. "Even in this southern community we have been able to achieve many notable victories. Our devoted president and our able and vigilant executive secretary recently discovered two cases of peonage right here in the nation's capital and emancipated the victims. Our local branch has stood on the firing line for ten years securing better school facilities for your children, positions in the civil service for successful candidates whom the authorities were trying to keep out, the raising of insulting stigma in public places, and dozens of other victories over the southern spirit. It has fought many with out success yet, but we intend to keep in the fight until our city and our country are free from prejudice, and our fellow-countriesmen considers the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments are as sacred as the 18th, and until they know that insistence upon one, and outrage upon another imperils our entire governmental structure." block or city or State or Nation or riding in the same street car constitutes a social relation of a certain order. But social intimacy there is none—unless it be entirely voluntary on both sides. "Social intimacy is no more compellible in the case of the Freshman Hall at Harvard than in the case of the Hotel. Here are Smith from Texas and Jones from Mississippi, lily white freeman, living in the same hall. Does the university undertake to force Smith and Carrs into social intimacy? Certainly not! A college dormitory, I know, is not a hotel, but in essential the analogy holds. Scullions and thieves may sleep under the same roof with aristocrats and saints, but social intimacy does not result necessarily nor does the question of the congeniality of the mechanical relation of abode ever arise. "Of Course I Protest." "I suppose that none may deny that being members of the same college class is a social relationship. Being members of the same university is certainly one. If the principle which you are applying to the present case of roaming in the same building is conceded, the day may come when it will be applied to the class, the classroom, the campus, the university itself. Of course I protest. "Is it not fair to say that this "is not a departure from the past? Hitherto Harvard—and it is not the attitude of a group of private persons but that of a renowned university affected by a public interest that is at issue—has looked upon the individual student as an individual and not as a racial symbol. It has extended to him all its facilities with exclusive regard not to his ancestry but to himself. And one does not. I submit, determine questions of principle by percentages. "Granted that the wind just now is blowing in the direction of reaction does it not behoove a great and responsible centre of enlightenment to be caught, like some paltry straw, in the gust? If the way to resume spec payments is to resume (as Grover Cleveland pointed out with clarity), the way to lead is not to follow. Likoma Policy to that of Klam "A former president of Harvard has set forth weightly some of the considerations that lead to the belief that our American democracy may endure. But a policy that officially recognizes and sanctions and accentuates racial incompatibilities among the diverse elements of our population conduces not to the stability of our institutions. "Impress, if you will, upon the Irishman (not forgetting the 'Roman Conquest' of Massachusetts mentioned, by Mr. Macy), or the Jew or Negro the idea that the oldest and oldest of our universities shares the conviction of the Ku Klux Klan that, no matter what his charm and gift and serviceability as an individual he can not full-fledged American because of the very blood in his veins, you manufacturers arrive in the THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 1923. protect and prepare for the future—strife. "And I speak not as a radical, but as a conservative." Board of Overagora to Art. An interesting development following the publication of this correspondence is that the exclusion of young "Bruce from the Freshman dormitories has never been acted upon by the Board of Overscars, one of the two governing boards of the institution. The other board, the Corporation, is composed of the President and Fellows. Joint action by both boards is required on all important matters and especially matters that represent the university's policy. Even though the Corporation has considered the Bruce matter, it is stated as a certainty that the Board of Overscars will take it up. Many of the most prominent men in the country, Harvard graduates, have declared against President Lowell's action. Rev. Dr. William Channing Gannett of Rochester said the proposed exclusion policy at Harvard would violate all her best traditions. Said he, "In its measure it would Jim Crow the college. It would show her siding with those disposed to increase rather than lessen the burden of birth of the colored people in our land." In absolute contradiction to President Lowell's assertion in his letter to Mr. Bruce that his ruling "is not a departure from the pata" comes the definite statement from President emeritus Charles W. Elliot, who was for forty years the active head of Harvard, that "such discriminations would violate very precious Harvard traditions." Former Pres. Elliot Protests. Dr. Elliot, now living in retirement at Cambridge, Mass, during whose presidency Harvard became recognized as standing preeminently for democratic ideals in education, spoke out in opposition to Lowell's action in the following telegram: "I am opposed to every form of racial discrimination in the universities of our heterogeneous democracy. Any such discrimination would violate very precious Harvard traditions." Capt. "Ham." Fish Denounces Exclusion One of the strongest protests against the action taken by President Lowell is contained in a letter written by Congressman Hamilton Fish of New York, who gave out on Monday last the text of a communication he had sent President Lowell. Congressman Fish, a graduate of Harvard, who served during the World War as a captain in New York's famous regiment of Negro soldiers, the "Hellfighting 15th." (369th A. E. F. commanded by Col. "Bill" Hayward), denounced exclusion of Negroes from the freshmen dormitories as a stain on the university's tradition in his letter to President Lowell. Congressman Fish wrote: "The policy promulgated by you excluding from the freshmen dormitories of Harvard all colored undergraduates Bantraynes, in my opinion, the traditions and ideals which have done so much to develop the greatness of our university as a seat of learning and as a liberal institution. "Your policy of exclusion is the adoption of the Jim Crow methods of the South, the complete negation of the very reason for the creation of the freshman dormitories. As an undergraduate I was an ardent supporter of yours in advocating the establishment of freshman dormitories and mandatory attendance because I believed it was a practicable way of furthering democratic aims of the university. Don't Aim to Obtrude. "The few colored men who enter Harvard are educated and cultivated students seeking higher education and the opportunities for a liberal education. Can it be that these few men can so shock the susceptibilities of present-day Harvard undergraduates that they desire to deny them a right to live and to eat in the spacious dormitories? " "These colored students are not seeking to be introduced into the homes of their classmates or to attend their teas or dances or to obtrude where they are not wanted; all they ask is a right to live and let live, and to enjoy the same privileges as other undergraduates in purely academic affairs." "It is generally admitted that it is through education that the condition of our colored citizens can best be improved, yet when the leaders of that race such as young Bruce, grandson of a former distinguished United States Senator and whose father was an honor graduate, seek to enter Harvard, are they henceforth to be brutally told that they can enter only at the price of ostracism? Great National University "Where is this system of proscription going to end? Are Asiatics to be discriminated against? Is it the same Harvard that conferred an honorary degree a few years ago on Booker T. Washington? Harvard is not a private school, but a great national university, with its gates wide open to all who can comply with the entrance requirements, based on scholarship, not on race, color or creed. During the war I had the honor and privilege of serving with a colored National Guard regiment from New York State. These enlisted men are imbued with the idea that they were fighting to make the world safe for democracy. What a hollow mockery. I would be derelict to the memory of those men in my command who paid the supreme sacrifice in battle if I remained silent on this issue affecting the civil rights of their race. "It was good enough them in defense of our country to sleep alongside of our colored comrades, but it seems too much now to ask undergraduates even to live under the same roof with cultured Negroes, although separated by partitions. This is not the spirit of democracy; it is not the spirit of New England. And it is not the spirit of Harvard. "Certainly there has been no referendum among Harvard graduates on this amazing divergence from our historic policy. Have we already forgotten the glorious memory of Col. Robert Could Shaw of the 54th Massachusetts Colored Infantry? What of the uncompromising and fearless fight waged by John Quincy Adams, Charles Summer, Edward Sherett and ni our day, by Theodore Roosevelt in behalf of the civil rights of the Negro race? I do not believe that such discriminatory action would have ever been considered in the lifetime of Major Haggison and other prominent Civil War unionists. Washington's Civic Center Fights Segregated Bathing Objects to Government Appropriation for Bathing Beach Being Used to Provide Facilities in Waters Outside District of Columbia (Special To The New York Age) Washington, D. C.-The long and persistent fight by the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations of the District of Columbia against the segregation of the bathing beach by the Federal authorities, reached its climax when the Association presented to the Secretary of War one of the most strongly endorsed petitions ever presented by colored citizens of Washington. Early in June, when the first announcement was published that a segregated beach would be opened for colored people, the Civic Center sent urgent letters to the President and to Lieut. Col. Sherrill, protesting against the Columbia Island location. Chairman William D. Nixon, Dr. Creed W. Childs, sr., Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Rev. Emory B. Smith and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, representing the Association, called by appointment on the Secretary of War and strong pleas for right and justice were made. The authorities proposed to change the approach to the Columbia Island site from a point on the Virginia side to a point on the District side, but this failed to meet the approval of the committee. Four interviews have been held with Secretary Weeks. With the exception of Dr. Scott, who attended the first meeting only, the above committee has continued at a great sacrifice of time and energy to gather facts and present arguments to meet the situation. The latest proposition to locate the beach at the south end of the new Key Bridge, made possible by a special decision handed down by the Attorney General of the United States, that the District of Columbia extended to the highwater mark on the Virginia side of the Potomac River, and the asking of Congress by Major Beech for $50,000 for a Jim Crow park for the colored people of the city were subjects of discussion which resulted in the Secretary declaring that there would be no separate park for colored people. Dr. Creed W. Childs and Rev. Emory J. Smith made brilliant appeals for fair treatment; Chairman William D. Nixon, assuring the Secretary that every effort had been made to obtain the views of citizens relative to the river front, presented the following petition; THE CIVIC CENTER OF AFFILIATED ASSOCIATIONS Of the District of Columbia To the Hon. Secretary of War. War Department. Washington. D. C. Dear Sir: In deference to your expressed desire for the submission of a site for the location of a bathing beach agreeable to the wishes of the colored citizens of the District of Columbia, the committee representing the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations sought the opinion of numerous organizations, institutions and individuals in all sections of the city and representing all walks of life in regard to points along the river front best suitable for the beach with the result that they agree with the original concession of the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations, that self-respect demands that we accept no implied segregation on the part of the United States Government. We feel that this great movement should live up to the noble sentiments embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the principles of citizenship as laid down in the Constitution which calls for our support in the time of national danger. We ask to be accorded now the privilege which our valor entitles us to enjoy in times of tranquility. As long as the Tidal Basin is used for bathing purposes the colored citizens are entitled to and demand the privilege of the same Tidal Basin, or that the appropriation may revert to the Treasury Department of the United States. We will not be deported or ostracized in connection with this bathing beach with our consent. Respectfully submitted, W. D. NIXON, President. H. E. BARNETT, Sec'y.

C., who had been commenced along distance telephone, reached the bedside a few hours before their daughter died. The funeral was held in Bright Hope, well Baptist Church, of which she was a member, on Sunday, December 24, the pastor, Rev. L. W. Werts, onasting. The choir sang "Nearer, my God, Thee," as the body was brought into the church. Rev. N. J. Past, announced the hymn, "Face to face," Rev. J. B. Franis of the Presbyterian Church read the scripture lesson, and prayer was offered by Rev. McNair. After singing of "I would not live away," by the choir, resolutions on behalf of the faculty of Laurinburg Institute, where Mrs. McDuffie was a teacher, were read by Miss Glenn, of the faculty; Eulogy, "Beulah McDuffie as a neighbor," was read by Mrs. F. H. Parker; another, "Mrs. McDuffie as a choir member," was read by Mrs. L. L. King. "Some time we'll understand," was sung by Mrs. H. H. Johnson and the Rev. L. L. King read telegrams and letters. The sermon was preached by Rev. Wertz from Deuteronomy 34:1. Revs. Past, Francis, King and C. S. Crompler of the First Baptist Church, Maxton, also spoke. Interment was in Cedar Griwe Cemetery. She is survived by the husband, two daughters, one son father and mother, When one thinks of HAIR and TOILET PREPARATIONS, one, at the same time, thinks of 'PORO' The "QUALITY" Preparation Known throughout the United States and Foreign countries for the GOOD they do! —WRITE— PORO COLLEGE ST.

Waller It was on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon, September 6, 1922, when we sailed from Christobal, Canal Zone, on one of the United Fruit Company's steamships for Central America, laiding at Puerto Limon, Costa Rica, on the seventh. This port is very important, in that it is the only outlet Costa Rica has on the Atlantic Coast and is practically owned and controlled by the United Fruit Company. Thousands of stems of bananas from the company's banana plantations of Costa Rica are loaded in this port. All the wharves and docks, the hospitals and means of communication, yes, everything—the Fruit Company's banana business is the most powerful enterprise in all Central America. After a few hours stay in this little banana city, we boarded the Costa Rican State railway train for San Jose, the country's capital. With the exception of being land-sick from the roughness of the road, this was the most wonderful trip of all my life; words are inadequate to describe the varied scenes along the way. The first ten miles of this trip were along the shore of the Caribbean Sea. Then, with a short swing, the sea was left in our rear and we found ourselves in the midst of the most beautiful array of nature's beauty. For thirty or thirty-five miles our train proceeded through regions of tall and stately palms and other giant trees of the forest, with their vast trunks and intervening spaces filled in with huge ferns, creepers and a brilliant collection of blossoms of all colors, presenting a scene of transcending beauty. This lowland forest is inhabited by no living creature other than the 150 species of snakes and over 700 species of birds and such other animals as are common to the country. When the low levels of the plains were left behind us, we found ourselves among some of the fruit company's great banana farms manned by West Indian colored laborers, living in little corrugated iron shanties. For miles this scene was before our eyes until the footballs of the great cordillera were reacted, when coffee and cocoa plantations manned by Indian laborers living in their little thatched roof huts were to be seen everywhere, and the rugged stony mountain scenery which was much of contrast to the lower plains. As our train made its way through mountain tunnels, along sharp edges and steep precipices, across turbulent rivers junior high schools of the tenth, eleventh, welfth and thirteenth divisions. Miss Cromwell is now instructor in English at the Armstrong Manual Training School. Miss Sadie Scmner, after a pleasant visit to Durham, N. C., returned to the city. The home of Miss Sylvia Piper was the scene of a delightful entertainment. It was in honor of her Five Hundred Club. Among those present were Messdames Lavina Kahn, Carrie Beyd, Edna Perry, Vivian Turner, Vivian Pelham, Frankie Thomas, Martha Hippus Manning, Alta Webb Clark, Smith, Howard, Missie Sadden, Justine Wilkes, Alice Chiles, Veola Menard and Parthenia Pyles.

All kinds of train tables were being offered for our station along the way, while railway bought and enjoyed what was. The writer also to make himself at home joined in the buying, but when the eating time came his food had been on its way through the window. After seven hours of travel we arrived Cartago, the second largest city former capitol of Costa Rica. The city was almost destroyed by earthquake in 1911, at which time over 500 persons lost their lives. Twelve miles further inland and two hundred and six miles from our starting point on the Atlantic stands San Jose, the capitol of the country. This is the largest and most picturesque city in Central America and at one time the capitol of the Central American Confederation. It is situated on the San Jose Plateau, from which it takes its name and is over 4,500 feet above sea level. The two great cordillera to mountain ranges which run parallel through Central America are here separated by the San Jose Plateau. This plateau and are in the midst of not less than five volcanic peaks, four of which are active at all times and are most attactive during the night. Some of these peaks reach a very great height. From San Trai, trail, nearly 12,000 feet, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans can be seen from the same point. The city is very healthy and surprisingly cold. Being encircled by a city by high mountains and low hanging clouds, it is often hid from the outer world. Volcanic eruptions have played havoc with the inhabitants of this city. The country's finance was very weak at the time of our visit, due to constant revolution and unstable business. The last revolution which was bloodless took place in 1916. The early history of the inhabitance of Central America is shrouded in the same mystery as that of the remaining peoples of the new world, but these people as we saw them during our visit are of a mixed race. As other Spanish speaking people they were found to be very polite and the women exceptionally beautiful. Costa Rica, the smallest but one of the five Central America Countries, is approximately 50,000 square miles and has a population of 311,340 inhabitants; 24,500 of these live in San Jose. This city is not only important as above described, but the Central American can transcontinental railroad connects this point. It is also a place where ancient and modern civilization meet each day. A city in whose streets are to be seen tram cars, automobiles, oxcars with heavy wooden wheels, the driver of which use long sharp pointed instruments to control their sad looking animals. This particular incident would remind one of our good old Saint and Apostle Paul when he said, "It is hard for thee to kick against the pricks." This city is noted for some very beautiful buildings such as schools, churches and churches (Catholic). The noted is the magnificent theatre of Carrara mara, costing ten million dollars Costa Rica, with the rest of Central American States, belonged to Spain until 1821, when they revolted and became a part of the Mexican Empire. When Mexico became a republic in 1821, again revolted and formed the United States of Central America, but the nation was soon interrupted by Civil divisions which resulted in the five separate Republics. The writer had the pleasure of witnessing one of the little fractures in 1821 caused by a boundary dispute between Costa Rica and Panama, which was settled by our Dear Uncle Samuel, constantly keeps watch over his dark skinned Southern neighbors. Nevertheless, when we visited the country in September, 1922, perfect peace provided an everyone was about his own affairs. News of New York State GENEVA, N. Y. Genva, N.

Address all letters and make all checks and money orders payable to THE NEW VORK AGE. WAR AGAINST KU KLUX. The called the first gun in the expected war against the Ku Klux Klan in the North Carolina legislature was fired in the shape of a bill introduced by Senator J R Baggett. This bill makes it a felony for any person to appear off his premises disguised so as to destroy his property. The author of this bill said that he had received many abusive letters since beginning his attack upon the Klan and also letters of commendation. The revival of the Klan was not regarded with favor by the officials of North Carolina under the administration of Governor Bickett and efforts were made to drive it from the State. The report that one of the new judges in the Superior Court was affiliated with the Klan has given rise to much criticism. Judge Henry A Grady, the jurist referred to, refused to deny or admit each membership, but asserted that he was not a member of any secret or fraternal order whose oath, obligation or ritual was at variance with his oath as judge of his a citizen of North Carolina. He also stated that the only purpose he had and the only feeling that would activate him in the discharge of his duties would be to see that equal and exact justice is given to all parties regardless of their race. The Greensboro Daily News, one of the most outspoken and fearless papers of the South, took the alleged connection of Judge Grady with the Ku Klux Klan very seriously and was not disposed to regard his claim as sufficient. The statement assumed to the judge that he could not understand why the public should take an interest in a private matter referring to his connection with the Klan was pronounced "enough to prove that he is not a fit person to preside over a court in this State." The News editor contended that "Klankers" as it termed the members of the Klan "the very terms of their speech are admittedly 'banned' and 'precluded'." It was asked how can one of them be expected to be a just judge in cases which are sure to involve Negroes and quite likely to involve Jews and Catholics. The logical answer to such a question is regarded as ample cause for the impeachment and removal from the bench of Judge Grady. rule of the Klan in parts of Louisiana, show that the war against this organization has not begun any too soon. So long as the Klan confined its campaign of midnight whippings and assassinations to the Negro population, but little attempt was made by the authorities of the various Southern States to curb its atrocities. But when, as is Louisiana and Texas, its victims actisyhi- and Texas, its vicious acts were perpetrated upon white men and women, who fell under its han, the authorities became aroused to the danger of the situation they had permitted. Thus we find Governor Parker in Louisiana ordering out the State militia to support a legal investigation of the state of terror inaugurated by the Klan through the torture and murder of white citizens in the town of Mer Rouge. A writer in the New York Herald, who has made a thorough study of the organisation in all parts of the country, attempted to show that the Klan was dead in the South, except in Louisiana and Texas. It is claimed that the Klan was compelled to abate its outrages against the Negroes in the South, because the migration of the workers of this rate became so heavy as to alarm the farmers, who depended upon this labor to raise their cotton. These employers of labor became opposed to an organization that exerted such a harmful effect upon their industry. Then the white ministers of Atlanta conducted an active campaign against the Klan, which influenced public sentiment unfavorably in the home of the order. Nevertheless, the Klan has not dropped its doctrine of "white supremacy," which still appeals to the prevailing southern aeti- All these elements of dissatisfaction and self-interest have aided in warring upon the Klan, but the order still wields an evil influence in promoting racial rancor and in politics. It has been scotched in several places, but it is far from being killed. It will require all the efforts of legislators, public prosecutors and courts, newspaper editors, employ- ers of labor and ministers of the Gospel to bring the war against the Klan to a successful issue. HARVARD'S EXCLUSION POLICY. President A. Lawrence Lowell's announcement of an exclusion policy which will effectually bar colored students from the full privileges of attendance at that university, has aroused considerable discussion as to the reasons for this action and its possible effect on Harvard's status as a leading influence in American thought. That the individual affected by this ruling is a son of Roscoe Conkling Bruce and a grandson of the late Senator Bruce adds point and interest to this ruling. The reason assigned by President Lowell in the correspondence so far published is neither full enough nor definite enough to afford much enlightenment in the matter. As far as can be gleaned from his letter to Mr. Bruce, the reason assigned is that "in the Freshman Halls, where residence is compulsory, we have felt from the beginning the necessity of not including colored men. To the other demitories and dining rooms they are admitted freely, but in the Freshman Halls, I am sure you will understand why, from the beginning, we have not thought it possible to compel men of different races to reside together." The vagueness and ambiguity of this evasive announcement of the policy of racial discrimination avowed by the head of Harvard failed to carry conviction to the person addressed, as it would to any unbiased individual. Mr. Bruce's rejoinder aptly characterized the policy of compulsory residence in the Freshman Halls as costly indeed if it constrained Harvard to enter upon a policy of racial discrimination. He pointedly said that "it ill becomes a great mother of culture avoidably to accentuate the consciousness of racial differences among Americans—that seeded of so many strifees and griefs." After defining his personal indebtedness to Harvard as immeasurable, Mr. Bruce paid this tribute to the institution: "The university is neither a mere mechanism of instruction nor a social club, but a center of enlightenment and idealism and service rendered holy by aspiring centuries." This is the ideal that Harvard should live up to and that a large number of its graduates, outside of Mr. Bruce, still cherish. But such an ideal is not compatible with the narrow and exclusive policy avowed by President Lowell. Such a policy is bound to react unfavorably upon the best interests of the university and to destroy its leadership and influence as a vital force in the upholding of true Ameridigmism. The realization of the detrimental effect of this policy was appropriately voiced by the Rev. Dr. William Channing Gannett of Rochester, a Unitarian clergyman and author, who was a member of the class of 1860. Dr. Gannett said that this proposed exclusion policy would violate Harvard's best traditions and certainly her best ideals. He said it would also be a great insult, undeserved, and that his less than a generation we should all be ashamed of it. It was stated that the matter of exclusion has never been put before not acted upon by the Board of Overspersers of the university, one of the two governing boards of the institution. Some authorities hold that joint action of the two boards is necessary to decide all important matters. It would seem that the policy enunciated by President Lowell is important enough in its bearing on the future of the university to require the fuller consideration by all its governing bodies. The wide discussion given this matter in the public press and the expressions made by other graduates of the university who think along the lines advocated by Dr. Gannett, should convince the responsible authorities of Harvard that the exclusion policy projected is unworthy of any institution of the standing and character enjoyed by Harvard. Commenting on the growth of the Negro population in the North, as shown by the last census, the Christian Recorder, official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, said that there are more colored people in the First Episcopal District than in the States of Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and Florida. Time was when we looked to New Orleans and Washington. Charleston, Richmond and Atlanta as the great centers of Negro population, but the last census shows that the two largest centres of Negro population in the country are in the First Episcopal District. They are New York and Philadelphia. New York in 1920, had 133,088 Negroes which is more than Charleston, Columbia, Sumter, Abbeville, Aiken and Orangeburg, S.C. all combined Philadelphia had 134,229, or more than Atlanta, Savannah and Augusta combined. There are more Negroes in New York than there are white and colored people in any city in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina or West Virginia. There are more Negroes in Philadelphia and New York than there are both white and colored in the five largest cities in South Carolina combined, the four largest cities in Alabama, North Carolina and Florida. Of the centers of Negro population, New York stands first, Philadelphia stands second. Within 150 miles of Philadelphia there are more Negroes than in a similar space anywhere in America. Philadelphia is rapidly becoming the center of the world's largest urban population. The admission that the migrants who have contributed to this increase of population, should be licked after by the church is well worth acting upon. THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923. THE JIM-CROW HARVARD. But Lowell's efforts to justify his Jim's have placed him in a pitiable position. With Mr. Roscoe Conkling Bruce he is arbitrary. Indeed, on certain points Lowell states that for the best interest it was found necessary to compel freshmen. He should have gone a little further opinion he felt it necessary to compel them and colored freshmen to live out. Jim Crow policy at Harvard instituted, it will have far-reaching effects. If once a great many other universities and influence racial conditions in the South liberal spirit which is showing itself here has been brought about in large measure by who have met in Northern universities, of the equality of all men in the real almost liberalizing influences of the South been that the traditional stand of Harvard white students the opportunity of cost colored students as human beings. If he deprived of this last opportunity to learn and understanding that come through on a plane of intellectual equality, it is important thing, almost, that Harvard isery encouraging to note the attitude we have taken on this matter. We are of Lowell had no idea he was coming into public. We would not be at all surely forced to the place of greatly modern or even resigning his position. President Lowell's efforts to justify his Jim Crow policy at Harvard have placed him in a pitiable position. In his correspondence with Mr. Roscoe Conkling Bruce he is wholly weak, illogical and arbitrary. Indeed, on certain points he is actually absurd. President Lowell states that for the best interests of the University it was found necessary to compel freshmen to live in the dormitories. He should have gone a little further and stated that in his opinion he felt it necessary to compel the white freshmen to live in and colored freshmen to live out. If the Jim Crow policy at Harvard instituted by President Lowell holds, it will have far-reaching effects. It will, without doubt, influence a great many other universities and colleges, and it will also influence racial conditions in the South. The greater part of the liberal spirit which is showing itself here and there in the South has been brought about in large measure through Southern students who have met in Northern universities an unflinching affirmation of the equality of all men in the realm of learning. One of the most liberalizing influences of the Southern racial situation has been that the traditional stand of Harvard has given to Southern white students the opportunity of coming to know their fellow colored students as human beings. If these Southern students are deprived of this last opportunity to learn the lessons of tolerance and understanding that come through mingling with colored men on a plane of intellectual equality, they will have lost the most important thing, almost, that Harvard is able to give them. It is very encouraging to note the attitude which the New York papers have taken on this matter. We are quite sure that President Lowell had no idea he was coming in for so much unenviable publicity. We would not be at all surprised if he is not ultimately forced to the place of greatly modifying his exclusion order or even resigning his position. DIXON DENIES HIS CHILD. is never cease. Now here come THE Clansman," denouncing the Ku Klux Klan, allow the Baltimore branch of the orgy itself the Thomas Dixon Klan. In a week in the New York "Globe" Mr. Dixon I wrote "The Clansman," I wrote it as a story as accurately as possible conditions as they exert the close of the Civil War. I did not even come with the South of the Reconstruction era. I now no such situation confronts any part of the ongoing period is ended and the courts and the laws being properly. Before, I think it is exceedingly dangerous to have such as the Ku Klux Klan appears to be. It is order to take in its own hands the administration express my disapproval of the Klan in too strong form of Mr. Dixon's statement, he is father of him. It was his writings and his moving possible the re-birth of the organization. The old order was a chivalrous body woven service to the country is all baskernicious as the new one. It is fear of the consequences of his use of decency which causes Mr. Dixon at the modern Ku Klux Klan we do not have great difficulty in getting away from child. Surprises never cease. Now here come Thomas Dixon, author of "The Clansman," denouncing the Ku Klux Klan and refusing to allow the Baltimore branch of the organization the right to call itself the Thomas Dixon Klan. In a statement published last week in the New York "Globe" Mr. Dixon said: "When I wrote 'The Clansman,' I wrote it as a story and I tried to depict as accurately as possible conditions as they existed in the South at the close of the Civil War. I did not even claim to be in sympathy with the South of the Reconstruction era. I merely reported conditions. "Today no such situation confronts any part of the country. The carpet-bagging period is ended and the courts and the laws of the nation are functioning properly. "Therefore, I think it is exceedingly dangerous to have an active organization such as the Ku Klux Klan appears to be. It is revolutionary for this order to take in its own hands the administration of the law. I cannot express my disapproval of the Klan in too strong terms." In spite of Mr. Dixon's statement, he is father of the modern Ku Klux Klan. It was his writings and his moving picture plays which made possible the re-birth of the organization. Mr. Dixon's claim that the old order was a chivalrous body which rendered a great patriotic service to the country is all books. The old Klan was just as pernicious as the new one. Whether it is fear of the consequences of his labors or a remaining sense of decency which causes Mr. Dixon to denounce and renounce the modern Ku Klux Klan we do not know. However, he will have great difficulty in getting away from the fact that it is his own child. THE NEW SOUTHERN EXODUS. er A. Walton in his article in the New York tells of the new wave of Negro migrats Walton paraphrases Coue as follows: by the Negro migration wave is getting states that fifty thousand is a conserver of Negroes who have left the South and Middle West within the past in lynching, exploitation, and denial of corps behind the exodus. He also points Mr. Lester A. Walton in his article in the New York "World" of last Sunday tells of the new wave of Negro migration from the South. Mr. Walton paraphrases Coue as follows: "Day by day in every way the Negro migration wave is getting larger and larger." He states that fifty thousand is a conservative estimate of the number of Negroes who have left the Southern States for the Northwest and Middle West within the past ninety days. He puts down lynching, exploitation, and denial of common justice as the causes behind the exodus. He also points out that the whites of the South are becoming alarmed and that some liberal leaders are urging that steps be taken to stop the movement. The facts regarding migration which Mr. Walton has set down are corroborated from other sources. For example, in a rural community in one of the Southwestern states there is a branch of the N. A. A. C. P." Last week the National Office of that organization received a letter from the branch which contained the following paragraph: "Our branch has scattered very, very much in the last two months, going northwest. We began with upwards of two hundred members and now we are down to about forty, and they are planning to go. The Secretary is gone and the President is planning to go, and several others of which I shall not mention just now, and some of us are in such condition until we can't go. Although the ordeal that we are going through demands our room, yet we are unable to cross the Mason and Dixon line." Further corroboration is contained in an article on the Ku Klux Klan in the New York "Herald" of last Sunday. In this article it is disclosed that the powerful influences in the South called the Klan off the Negro because the activities of that organization were driving Negroes out of the cotton-raising districts of the South. The article in the "Herald" contained some interesting statistics regarding the falling off in the increase of Negro population in several Southern States in the last decade as shown in the census. We quote these statistics as follows: The 1920 census returns indicate plainly the drift of the colored population since the Invisible Empire became a menace. The increase in the Negro population of Georgia from 1900 to 1910, for instance, was 13.7 per cent, whereas from 1910 to 1920 it dropped to 2.5 per cent, far below the increase due. At the beginning of the Ku Klux movement Florida was quickly organized and many Negroes frightened or actually misreated. The increase there from 1900 to 1910 was 33.8 per cent, but that went down to 6.2 from 1910 to 1920. Alabama was Ku Klux ridden for several years. Her Negro population increased 9.8 per cent, from 1900 to 1910, but decreased 0.8 per cent, from 1910 to 1920. From 1900 to 1910 the Negroes of Mississippi increased 11.2 per cent, but from 1910 to 1920 they decreased 7.4 per cent. In Louisiana the Negroes increased 9.7 per cent from 1900 to 1910 and decreased 1.9 per cent, from 1910 to 1920. This new wave of migration is the most encouraging sign now to be seen in the South. In leaving the South the Negro is bringing into play the strongest force at his command. He is exercising economic pressure, the most powerful that can be exerted, except overwhelming physical force. If migration could bring about influences strong enough to call off the Ku Klux Klan it can, if it is kept up, ameliorate many other conditions in the South. It is within the possibilities that it could almost gatirely abolish the three great evils, lynching, disfranchisement and Jim-Crowism. Of course, the success of this migration movement depends not only upon the Negro's leaving the South but equally upon his gaining an economic foothold in the North and West. If the efforts which capitalistic industry is making to open the immigration gates and let in a flood of cheap labor are unsuccessful, there will be no difficulty for the Negro in gaining an economic foothold in the North. If sufficient numbers of Negroes can get their hands on the good paying jobs in the North and West and bring up their children and educate them in the free and civilized states, there will be wrought a greater change in the condition of the race in the next twenty years than can now be imagined. Certainly, the Negro will meet with opposition in the North, but it will be opposition of a different kind. It will be the opposition which demands only "Can you make good?" The old idea about the South being our dear old homeland and that we ought to love it and live in it and die in it regardless of conditions is nothing but mushy sentimentality, the sort of sentimentality we get in "My Old Kentucky Home" and "Suwanee River." The actual fact is there are too many Negroes packed in the South. It makes Negroes cheap, cheap as labor, sometimes cheap as fuel. The country is too big to make such congestion necessary: If one-half the Negroes would come out of the South and go into the industries in the North and upon the land in the Northwest, where they will be free from peonage, the whole race would be many fold better off. We hope that the migration will keep up. SKULL AND CROSSBONES. The voters of Savannah recently held a campaign for the purpose of electing a mayor and other city officers. Under the Democratic primary laws of Georgia, as in most other southern states, the Negro voters are barred from expressing their choice in the nomination of candidates for office. The successful candidate in the primary as a rule has won the title to the office, as the regular election is in the nature of a ratification meeting. But in this Savannah contest dissatisfaction developed, with the regular Democratic candidate and an opposition ticket was named. The opposition ticket which had the support of the Savannah Morning News, evidently counted on the aid of the Negro voters to oust the unpopular city administration, which was seeking reelection. In an extra issued on January 8, the News told of an effort to intimidate this class of voters; the best representatives of whom, it claimed, were supporting Judge Seabrook, the independent candidate. This attempt at intimidation took the form of a crude drawing of a skull and crossbones done in ink, which was posted on the door of every Negro church in Savannah, with the following inscription under the drawing: "This is a white man's fight. Keep away." The News contended that both races were outraged by this act, which they regarded as an unwarrantable attempt to frighten the Negroes away from the polls and to prevent them from exercising their constitutional right of franchise. When a white southern newspaper like the Savannah, Morning News is led into such an admission concerning the constitutional right of franchise of Negro voters, the local political situation must have become serious indeed. The News also published in the same issue what purported to be a legal communication from the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, in which the Savannah Klan No. 41 denied that they had anything to do with the writing or posting of this notice, or that they had any knowledge whatever of same. One fact that seems to stand out in the muddied politics of the South is, that despite all efforts to deprive the Negro of the franchise, the whites of the South, with accustomed inconsistency, insist on making that vote a factor in their local elections. If such action tends to confirm the Negro in the right to the franchise, he should avail himself of every opportunity to use it. A constitutional right should not be allowed to lapse through neglect. MODERN HUOSING NEEDED. According to those who have studied the housing situation in Harlem, particularly as it affects the colored residents, the greatest need is the construction of model tenements. These should consist of one, two, three and four room apartments, with all the modern conveniences. Apartments of this character would do away in great measure with the congested conditions now prevailing and the sub-letting of accommodations intended for one family to two or three groups in no way related. It would also alleviate the necessity for admitting strangers to the family group as lodgers. In order to make the construction of such modern tenements a profitable investment at reasonable rents, it would be necessary for the promoters of such an enterprise to provide such housing at a reasonable cost for land and buildings. Where vacant lots are not available for such purposes, the only alternative would be to convert old style dwellings into apartments of the kind required. To carry out either of these plans successfully would require a thorough investigation of the territory within which such operations would be feasible and a close study of the costs involved for land and buildings. Harlem real estate values, according to the same authority, have now become so stableized as to offer excellent opportunities for safe investment, although the quick profits of past years are no longer to be anticipated. The continuance of the congested housing conditions of the past few years gives no promise of any speedy reduction of rents and real estate agents do not look for any during the next three or four years. The only thing that would bring about a change in this respect would be the opening of houses already constructed or the building of new houses of the type suggested. Despite the many efforts made by promoters of surburban developments to attract city dwellers to the outskirts, there seem to exist insuperable objections among the residents of Harlem to take advantage of these offers. It may be that the demands of business occupations require many of these to remain on Manhattan Island, although it would seem that the commuter by rail oftimes has the advantage of the subway traveler, both in speed and comfort. New York real estate, however, maintains its position as a safe and reliable investment for home and foreign capital. With the influx of investment by members of the race in other parts of the country, who desire to have their money work for them in New York, the needs of more modern housing may be met in a way that will prove profitable to both landlord and tenant. It is a problem that should enlist the best efforts of our most experienced real estate men in working out a solution. Advancing the argument that a half loaf is better than no loaf at all, the Texas Freeman contends that the Negro voters of Houston have more to gain by cooperating with the present city administration in its campaign for a bond issue and city charter amendments. The question is put as follows: Shall we antagonize further the powers that be, or shall we co-operate with them in pursuance of their platform and promises to dispense without discrimination those utilities and benefits that all of the candidates, from mayor on down, have promised to give all sections of the city if elected. The colored schools and Emancipation Park, too, have been woefully and shamefully neglected but who, primarily, is responsible for that, the colored teachers and trustees in control, or the city administration that on more than one occasion has contended that colored citizens generally get what their representatives in-authority ask for? As an individual voter, Editor Love is not opposed to efficient and well meaning public servants as well as those in public life getting the maximum pay for their services. This seems to be a sensible way of looking at the matter, although the Free man registers its opposition to the present Democratic primary election system which denies all Negro voters, regardless of political affiliation, the right to nominate city officials. The Savannah Journal refers to a phase of the racial exodus, which has not received the attention that it deserves. It says: It is to be regretted that so many substantial Negro business men and educators are beginning an exodus to the North. We who remain, need this class of our people and the South needs them. It cannot be denied that men of constructive minds and large activities, whether black or white, are assets to the communities in which they live. We need them and regret to see them go. This is one of the losses that is inevitable in the process of readjustment that is now going on in all parts of the country. The only consolation to be extracted from the situation is that the loss in one section or community is balanced by the gain in another. The Nashville Globe thinks that "Shuffle Along" is not a good descriptive title for the show billed under that name, which recently played in Nashville. It said: There was nothing slow about the show, in fact it's the fastest stepping, maddest dancing, gayest prancing, and sweetest singing entertainment that has hit this town. This article shows that the Globe writers are equally at home in a Sunday-school convention or an up-to-date theatrical show. The Kansas City Call of January 5 claimed to carry the largest advertisement by a Negro business that ever appeared in a Negro newspaper. It consisted of four pages devoted to a local realty company, telling of the growth of the realty business which has served many home buyers. The Whole transaction is a noteworthy indication of race The Cleveland governor announced the Ku Klux Klan Southern political organization should be outlawed. It said. To propagate itself it has with the church. Protesters those in the North who were reared in the South and haveern point of view, are the one upon to spread this evil. The white clergymen can be relied upon to spread the virus of the South where. In the future our people pay little attention to the Ku Klan. The wickedness of critical monster has disgusted besides it has laid bare the man that infest the southern church southern ministry as a whole of this Ku Klan. As such it is of religious association by nature The Ku Klux Klan is a cause nation and President Harding by executive order outlaw Any minister who allows him to be used as a tool of this corruption is making a mockery of religion, of Christianity, which fesses to preach. The recent report of murder and torture practiced Klan in Louisiana are a report of modern civilization. "A." The Most Essential "A is the first vowel sound in English language.

Organización Judicial en Puero Rico. En los últimos días se ha acentuado la creencia de que pronto habrá una reorganization en todo el poder judicial de la isla. Desde hacia meses se venia hablando del particular tanto, en los circulos oficiales como en la prensa, pero entonces prevalece el criterio de que, con motivo de los últimos cambios importantes en el gobierno de la isla, y lo cual motivó la salida de la comisión unisterna para Washington a protestar contra la actuación del gobierno Reilly, se hablan dado instrucciones terminantes al gobiernoador para que cesara decretenal destituaciones y efectuando cambios violentos en el gobierno. Para en el epoca se afirma que el gobierno tenia interés en cambiar algunos funcionarios en que no tenía confianza por considerarlos elementos hostiles a la politica y propiósito del gobierno Reilly. Con motivo del viaje del gobierno a Washington se volvía a acertar la creencia y a caminar en el momento THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923. actual no se tiene noticia oficial sobre la reorganización de que se habla, se sabe de fuente digna de crédito que hay muchas verdad en el movimiento de cambios judiciales y que es muy posible que el gobernador Reilly lo haya dejado todo disputado para que dichos cambios se efectiven durante la ausencia de el en los Estados Unidos. Hasta ahora no se registra en los últimos días sino la remoción del fiscal Quilones, por haber hablado mal, según se dice, del gobernador. De la fuente donde comamos la noticia no pudimos recoger por ahora nombres propios de los probables nuevos funcionarios. Una Bella Jeven Figura en el Robo de La Familia Schoolkonf Viviendo entre los millionarios de Nueva York, metaclasidado con sus famílias, comiendo en sus clubs y bailando en sus hijos, medra una aventura de calibre mental extraordinario que "trabaja" una o dos veces al año y recoge batientes fabulos. La policía está casi convencida de que el robo de que victima Mrs. C. P. Hugo Schoolhopf, fuduro de sus golpes, planteado detenidamente y consumado con masa恼irable. Hace cosa de seis meses llevo a cabo otra hazana parecida, que le produjo alrededor de $300.000 en vallas joyas. Tanto este, como el otro la trocinario, presentan características abolutamente identicas. Todavía se encuesta prezo Mr. Frank Barrett Garman, el amigo intimo de los Schoolkopf, pero las autoridades principián a creer que el ex-artista de vendeville y compañero de vijales del acuadual matrimonio fue solo un instrumento inocente en las manos de la archicriminal. Sabe la policía que esta "reina del hampa" numa se muestra en personas al consumar alguna de las recharias que maquina. Eda demasiado inteligente para arrigarse de este modo. Al dar el golpe todo esto preparado de anteriñan. Cuadante con lugares donde las alfajanes pueden emporrarse o venderse y hasta con diamantitas capaces de varilar la forma y el tallado de las gemas robadas. El robo de las joyas de Schoellhopf ha servido para concentrar la atencion de las autoridades en Broadway, campo de operaciones de los aventureros internacionales, donde hacen vida nocivitas muiles que delembran con sus piedras preciosas, jugadores de pocker que juegan por centenares de miles de dólares y demi-donaines que cubren sus conestados insultantes por su lujo. Y entre, todos es variados elementos, revolotando como mariposa, está la aventurera, la mujer Raffles que cuente con piratas modernos que en vez espadas y mosquites, usan la文化, la distinción y la cortesiana, para el logro de sus negros designios. Carman al comparcer ante el magistrado Sima, no padiendo se plir la fanaza de $50,000 que se exigio por su libertad, fus develuello a la celda que ha estado occupando. Su caso se revistará el 8 de enero. Mr. Thomas Sheridan abogado defensor del preso, ha protestado contra la actuación de las autoridades, declarando que no tienen pruebas suficientes que apoyen la detención de su cliente, en quien tienen confianza ilimitada los esposos Schoolhopf. Parcece que la compañía con que estan aseguradas las joyas robadas ha desistido de ofrecer la recomponda que projectaba ofrecer. Ignorac a que se debe ello.

WITH OUR GIRLS DEAR GIRLS: Wasn't it a nice surprise to hear from Mr. Russell last week? I was first wondering what had become of him. Mr. Russell did a very nice favor for the Wonder Girls last year. He helped us to introduce ourselves to the public at the first dance we gave. Oh, Girls. I think that my Wonder Girls are the nicest, loveliest and best Girls that ever lived. I suppose you are anxious to know why I think all of this. Well last Saturday afternoon during the intermission of the show, "Liza," which we were taking in, one of the girls passed me a small box and when I opened it, there was a darling little wrist watch with a card along side of it saying "With love from the Wonder Girls." Now do you blame me for loving the Girls. It was the nicest surprise I ever had. DEAR GIRLS: Happy New Year to all. I suppose everyone is busy making resolutions, though I find it very hard to keep mine. I am sure all the girls like me love pretty dresses. W care starting a new season at the dressmaking place that I work at and the dresses are wonderful. A lot of lace is going to be used this spring and summer. We sew for two very large establishments, so I have a chance to see some beautiful dresses and every night when I come home. I make a little sketch of the dresses that we sew on during the day. I have quite a little fashion book. So if any one of you want an idea for TRENTON. N. I. Trenton, J. K. Jaffe, Anna Pate apent the weekend with Misses Alice and Myrtle Mayes of 41 West End avenue.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS Commonwealth Five Gives 2nd Defeat to Bronx Team "Fat" Jenkins, as Captain of Commonwealths, Has Brought Harmony to Team-Collegians Were Entirely Outclassed in This Game PAGE SIX T Commonwealth 2nd Defeat to "Fat" Jenkins, as Captain Brought Harmony to T Entirely Outclass The Bronx Dodgers, known in Harlem as the Bronx Collegians, met their second defeat at the hands of the Commonwealth Big Five at Commonwealth Casino on Sunday night, January 14. Although the Bronx team made a sensational finish in its first encounter with the local team, the Commonwealth clearly outclassed them on Sunday night and more than doubled the score, which was 49-24. With "Fat" Jenkins as captain of the Commonwealth team, the dissension that was arising among the players seems to have disappeared, and the team played better on Sunday night than it has for several games. Slocum's ghosting was much improved and he was the chief scorer for his team, although both Fail. Although S. Glick was the outstanding player on his team, he was not perished and Jenkins played well.mitted to shoot as he did in the previous encounter of these two teams. He was closely guarded by Hubbard and allowed only four field goals. In the preliminary game the Buffaloes scored an easy victory over the Keesu Arrows. The winning team showed excellent work, and some of its members will undoubtedly become stars on the larger clubs next season. The summary of the main attraction was as follows: Collegians (21) | Commonwealth (49) Frost | R. F | Fral S. Gluck | L. L | Jenkins Kellett | 0 | Slavon L. Gluck | R. G | Vibhaskar O'Grady | L.

"SHUFFLE ALONG" IS CHICAGO SENSATION Still Going Big in Windy City— "Black Carl" Married Jan. 2 to Mrs. Carey of New York (Special To The New York Age) Chicago, Ill. The original Shuffle Along Moe, headed by Miller & Lyles and Sissie & Blake, is continuing to do a big business and its stay in Chicago will probably be limited only by the company's future contracts. An unusual feature of the company's reception in the Windy City is the social popularity, which its members enjoy, and the manner in which the players carry and deport themselves under the hospitable burden. Some days there are as many as five different dinners or other social functions being held in their lounge, and it is said that this is the most popular company, socially. Chicago has ever seen. During the holidays Chicago took on some of the aspects of Seventh Grade Allegem. A number of visitors were here, especially with sons and sisters with other friends quenching the mixture.

The game was very fast and many exciting plays were made by both teams, but the Blue Belts displayed their superiority throughout. The Blue Belts played a greater part of the game under a handicap as during the first half, Heilgen Zehens, known by many fans as "Dandanella," was forced to retire because of an attack of acute infestation. Towards the end the recurrented the game, Corne Mason again played a pattern the game deserving of much credit. In the preliminary game to the big attraction the Buffalo Jets defeated the College Settlement by two points the final score being 4-20. The settlement boys were not to be played well and gave those fences Bunahoe all the trouble they could handle, but initially, when that elongated boys, George Gregory, got into the game things seemed to change. This was a game worth seeing. After the game the smile of victory was noted upon Coach Ralston's face. Can you blame him? That was a victory won and one to be proud of. These games were scheduled to have taken place at the New Renaissance Casino, the activities were switched to St. Marks. The New York Bears hung up two consecutive games last week. The first time being the Oriental horns, from away upender in New Buchelle, on Friday evening, January 12, at St. Mark's Hall, the score being 42-11. The Bears outclassed their opponents in every respect. Blanch Winston and Vassan harris played the colors led throughout the game the game at the end of the first half being 27-7. The preliminary game to this attraction was between the spartan Bomers and the Columbus Colts. In a last minute rally the Bomers posted out the horns with a score of 24-11. This game was full of action all the way through. The score at the end of the first half was 26-11. Columbus faced, for a time it seemed as though the Bomers were unable to take the basket. But when they did, they made them count. In some respects the Bomers outplayed their opponents, but a few innings shaded their down fall. Spartan's victory was well served. the annual victory of the week for the boys was over the Brooklyn W. Y. A last Saturday afternoon when the New Yorkers punished across the "Storm and gave our neighbors a good lesson in the two points of basketball. The same being Zoe Vanian Hammel made all of the points Blanche Winston she supported in the game. Our team's best team, our sleptover neighbors, realize as yet that New York can't be beaten."

WESTLEY JOHNSON And his Celebrated Jazz Band MINSTREL MORRIS SANDIFER & VIRBLE RUTH and CLIFORD HELEN DARE SCOTT - RAY - CASMAY WILLIAMS & WILLIAMS AUNT MAMMY And her, Plebs MATINEE DAILY MIDNIGHT SHOW EVERY FRIDAY CONTINUOUS SUNDAY FROM 2 to 11 Sailor Darden, 149 pounds, scored a technical knockout over Lew Williams in the last round of a scheduled eight round bout at the 15th Armory on Tuesday night, January 16, when the referee stopped the bout to save Williams from further punishment. Williams, who is a veteran of the prize ring, made his best effort in the first round, when he traded blows with Darden and shook him up with several uppercuts. After this round, Williams' wind seemed to have failed him, as he went into a shell and used most of his energy in trying to prevent himself from being knocked out. Despite his efforts in this direction, Darden gave him a terrific pounding, and the contest became so one-sided that the referee finally stopped it. In the eight-round semi-final bout, Jack McVey, 145 pounds, of the 30th, defeated Georgie Bush, 148 pounds, of the 71st Regiment, by a wide margin. Bush was much too slow for McVey, who outpainted him in every round. Although Bush possessed a powerful punch in his right hand, most of his blows went wild, and he did very little damage to his colored opponent. McVey has improved considerably in the past few months, and is fast becoming one of the best fighters at his weight in the National Guard. Tommy Jackson and Battling Willie Powell, both highweights of the 30th Infantry, fought a fast draw in the other star bout of eight rounds. Jackson was the more skillful boxer, but the heavier blows of his opponent made him over cautious during the last few rounds of the fight. The best sight of the evening was the four round preliminary bout in which Henry Shaw and Lloyd Murphy fought a draw. This fight was a slugging contest from the start. Shaw was fooled twice and Murphy once in the opening round, and it looked as though either might score a knockout in the next. In the last round both were so tired that neither could hit a solid blow. Shaw weighed 154 pounds and Murphy 155. In the other preliminary bout, Patty Brown, 132, of the 21st Regiment was knocked off in the first round by Kid Albert, 130, of the 309th Regiment. Another all-star card will be presented at this armory on next Tuesday night, January 23. In this show Willie Sinclair meets Tommy Mobley, Roy Taylor meets Willie Powell and Henry Shaw meets Lloyd Murphy in a return bout. New Jersey Federation Notes.

Frieds, deserved a good man, and takes prior to our men the words of his written by his widow. Mrs. Wrote as follows: "302 South 3rd avenue, 'Mt. Vernon, N. Y., 'January 1, 1922."

And I thank you for your kindness and to his (and your) good qualities in your gracefully yours. MARION STRONG THORNTON. With your information (not correct), I would say that Mr. Thornton received his title of Major when he was under General Nelson A. Miles, of the Indians. He was in the serving army for five years, at Van Wert. FOOTS'S NOTE.—This information as to the "Major's" military title was by our statement in the letter to the Chief of the Army that he was "applied to him more in affair than through military services, although the title was rightfully his, as served in the New State Guard." The information emended in Mrs. Thorn's letter has great interest, especially to colored men, since it indicates this possibly Major Thornton lived in the regular army in connection with one of the Negro regiments. The purpose is based on the statement of a service fighting Indians under the American flag, though through his taxing and important Indian campaigns, was in command of Negro troops. It may not, possibly, add anything to the affection in which the Major is held in our memory, but it will be an interesting addenda to our knowledge of him if we discovered that his military service was rendered in connection with units comprised of members of our race. NEWS OF THE CHURCHES Mother Zion Church. Although the snow flakes fell in profusion Sunday morning, January 14, there was a tremendously large attendance at the 11 o'clock service.

Accept the terms of salvation as offered through the death and suffering of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. He spoke of the asplendid community he cherished in the traternal organization, which in a personal way aiding the members of their order, many of whom were oppressed. He also spoke of the recent happening in Florida in the growing out of many of our people from their homes, and the male-to-female controversy now being introduced in Harvard University and Harvard University, over the refusal of Indian Bison, over the refusal of Indian Mules, son to dormitory life in Harvard because of his crime.

Our Lord's Day service was somewhat hindered owing to inclement weather. The snowflakes fell as though they were intent upon completely covering Mother Earth with a white blanket. Notwithstanding this a most splendid audience greeted our pastor the morning, and every heart seemed to be pliated judging from the melodious singing from the choir and congregation. So it was the preparedness was made for the message. And yet, we were somewhat astonished at the increased vigor of our pastor. He spoke from the subject: "The Satisfying Christ." He presented the Saviour to us in the forms of Love, Wisdom, Grace and Mercy, embating with words that He only can employ, against Law Truth, Holiness, Justice, and the Truth with mercy, poising men from hell and giving them to Life Everlasting. In his conclusion he showed how the Saviour satisfied Heaven, Earth and Hell as He gave His Life on Calvary's Cross. At the close of the service four persons united with the church. The Sunday-school conceived at its usual hour with Mary Roane in charge of the opening of the church, and so many of the little people out in such a storm as prevailed. A half hour was given to the pastor and a number of the choir members led in the singing. As a result 5 pupils accepted Christ. Superintendent Johason appointed a special committee to wait with the choir members of others who had been converted previously but had not been baptized. At 3:30 p. m., the first communion of the New Year was held. The attendance was not as large as usual, owing to the weather. Rev. Dr. Douglas, pastor of Union Baptist Church, Boston, and president of United States Convention of Massachusetts, delivered the message in the absence of Dr. W. W. Brown, our usual speaker on communion Sunday. Dr. Douglas spoke from the subject, "The River and the Stream." The sermon was filled with thoughtful points and was well enjoyed by all who heard it. The B. B. of the gallery and took part in the service with singing. At the evening service, Dr. J. B. Boddie was again with us and delivered another great sermon from the subjects "Being Weighed." The sermon was indeed enthusiastic, fervent, and inspiring and was not only helpful but hopeful. The officers were able to thank the congregation for $443.03. First Emmanuel Church. At the eleven o'clock services on last Sunday morning Pastor Bolden preached a very helpful sermon. His text was St. John 3:18. "My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth." Pastor Bolden also spoke to the group of children which were at this service. These children were from two little clubs which have been organized in the church. He said, "The children should not always say how they loved their parents; they could easily prove that love by their obedience and trustfulness to them, and so it is with individuals; never prove your love for a thing by talking," but by service and truthfulness to it. At 2 o'clock Miss Maggie Johnson opened the Sunday-school and reviewed the children in the lesson going to the illness of the postmasterintendent. At 2 o'clock instead of the literary society, there was no program, this meeting was turned into a testimonial meeting. A Townsend of Oyster Bay spoke, and also Rev. Bolden. The evening services was very well attended. Rev. Bolden having to speak at another church, had the Rev. N. Holmes, secretary of the Lincoln House, to preach to the men from St. Mark Rev. Holmes text, and he the same day, when the come, he saith unto-them, he pass over unto the other side. And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was into the ship. And there were also with him other little ships." Theme, "Other little ships." This sermon was very good. The S. M. & L. Society had charge of the minister during the day and $3.35 was turned over to the church: Two people joined the church at the early service. Sunday, January 21, Holy Communion will be served at both morning and evening services. Every Monday during the month of January terminations will be attended at the Church. On Monday the Rev. Hendy was the speaker. All are invited to attend from services. THE NEW YORK AGE: SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923. Rush Memorial Church I spite of the inclement weather, the numbers were large that attended this church on last Sunday morning. Rt. Rev. J. S. Caldwell was the preacher at the morning service. In a beautiful and inspiring way he explained his subject. Tis finished. In part he had the new "work" as two-fold and these works he spoke had finished his work here on earth, and that the other fold was that he would go to Heaven to prepare a place for us. These new "cuits" and "tims" which have been springing into existence during the past years are theories of persons who, although the Lord says the work is finished, think it is tack on more to the completed work. Dr. Goler, financial secretary, and Dr. Crooke were present at this service. In the afternoon, the members, officers and chair of this church worshipped at Mother Zion Church at their communion service, when Dr. Oliver preached. In the evening, Rev. Van Pelt chapman of Trenton Prison, was the speaker. His subject was "Soul-winnning." The sermon was interesting and edifying. Five persons united with this church on last Sunday. Three of these were children who were happily converged on Friday, January 12, at the children's meeting which was held at the Commonwealth Casino. These meetings are doing wonderful work; they are held every evening except Saturday and Sunday. Go early and get a seat and you will get a spiritual treat. St. Luke's Episcopal Mission. Notwithstanding the blinding storm of last Sunday, St. Luke's Mission was crowded at all the services. The vicar, Rev. Scott Wood, celebrated the Holy Communion at 8 o'clock, and morning prayer and sermon at 11 o'clock, at which time clear rains reached on the subject of "Confirmation for Confirmation" with chapter 14th and 15th verses. He showed clearly how the baptismal vow of the candidates was strengthened and confirmed by the laying on of hands by the bishop. He urged parents to cultivate the spirit power in their children as energetically as they seek to improve their physical and mental well being. He said man grows in three way: physical and spiritual. The mission was packed, and the offering/was generous. At 3 p.m., the children held right of way in the the Suday-school. Notwithstanding the terrific storm. The Rt. Rev. Arthur S. Lloyd, suffragan bishop of New York, came and preached a wonderful and helpful sermon. He said many kinds of people were affected by the Mission had made. He was listened to with rant attention. The choir sang as never before and we were all greatly helped by the coming of the good bishop. After the service the members shook hands with the bishop. The confirmation class continues to grow and numbers over forty persons. The Mission people are all enthusiastic and active for the advancement of the mission. The vicar is arranging his Lenten program. A cordial invitation is extended the public. Seats free. St. Mark's M. E. Church On Sunday, January 14, the morning and evening services of St. Mark's M. E. Church were attended by good sized congregations, notwithstanding the very inclement weather. The pastor, Dr. W. H.

RENT COMMISSIONER ASKED FOR BY CENTER (Special To The New York Age) Washington, D. C.-The Civic Center of Affiliated Associations, composed of twenty-one race organizations, with a total membership of 15,000, has seated a strong letter to President Warren G. Harding, requesting that in making his appointments of Rent Commissioners for the District of Columbia he give recognition to the Negro landlords and tenants. The Civic Center bases its request on the fact that year after year colored people are more and more discriminated against in housing propositions, and there is no one to see that they are accorded justice. With a member of the race on the Commission, it is believed that equitable consideration will be given to matters in which they are interested. W. D.
