By Stanley and I (Special Correspondence) Various. According to accounts which may be attested recorded John H. Calhoun the white colored accountant who was commissioned by the United States Civil Service Commission for the position of Colonel at the Negro Veteran Hospital, Juskeeger, Ala., and who was commissioned to go to work when required for duty, it appears to be reasonably certain that Col. R. H. Stark, the United States Army officer, arrived to the Veterans' Bureau and issued to temporary command of the Tinkercaumarium, is either an actual member of the Ku Klux Klan, or deputy in comparity with that organization. This based on the allegation that the accountant to Calhoun by the Klan, charged him with dire personal insults he attempted to take up his work in the hospital, was handed to the young man to Stanley himself. And further evidence to the supposition by the fact that although Calhoun had been ordained by the Federal authoritatives, he was commissioned to furnish him with care to give him any sort of compensation. Glenn is a graduate of Hampton, and is currently an employee at Tuskegee Institute training that his life was in peril, given Tuskegee and came to Atlanta, where he met and had a conference with Ge Fark E. Hins, Director of the Veteran Eurasian Washington, who was given Tuskegee for the much-maligned conference with the white men at that town, and which is to be camped in Washington at a later date, with three prominent Alabamians representing the sentiment which opposes Negro slaves and nurses for Negro slaves. Attention is called to the fact that even though Sue is a native of Alabama, she is an officer of the U.S. army and seems to uphold the government. But in this case he forswore his bounden ob- Red Caps Form O Largest Group Labor Emp 252 Men Are Employed in The Ivania Station Alone, Serving —Men Perform Splendidly The Pennsylvania and Long Island Railroad are among the largest employers in colored labor in the North, and one of the most important and interesting groups of their colored employees is the Red Caps empoyed at the Pennsylvania Station. This group comprises 42 men who are employed primarily to assist passengers to and from the trains. But in addition to their regular work, they men do a great deal to award, directing and helping rail visitors coming into the city. They are the first colored people a stranger sees upon arriving at the station, they are readily called upon for all kinds of favors, and adhere to the present system of employing Mr. Red Caps at the Pennsylvania station began about eight years ago with W. H. Robinson and Fred N. Gantras captains and W. C. Boyd as assistant Mr. Robinson is a former North Carolina man and for eighteen years was a Pullman porter before taking up his present position. Mr. Gantras was formerly from Norfolk, Maryland, was employed as a messenger before he became a Red Cap, and Mr. Boud, who is a graduate of Tuskegee has been in the employ of this company for more than twenty-five years. The Red Caps have a peculiar status in Pennsylvania's road, as they are not actually employees. Up to May 1921 they received a wake of $20 per month and the tips they could earn since that time this sum has been diminished. The only compensation they now receive is in tips. However, the men are bonded by the company and by paying the sum of $20 per month became members of the company's relief association, from which they receive a death benefit of $20 and $10 cents per day for any dishabl. The men at this station are kept very busy, there are more than two hundred Long Island trains daily, and the team with six or eight Pullman cars comes from the South usually have a lot of luggage. They are divided into units with an average of forty men in each shift, and are assigned to a particular section of the station. Most of them are married and have been in the railroad's service for a number of years. However, there are a number of men employed during the summer who are taking professions in some of the building schools during the winter. Howard Lincoln, Columbia, New York University, Amherst, and a number of smaller schools are represented among the Red Caps this summer. Most of the men like their jobs, but all have one fault to find with the company. The fault was summed up by one of the Red Caps recently when he said. During my time here, I have seen white men come here, with little ability and without any training for their jobs who have been advanced to positions of authority, but however much he colored employee may know, he is not given any opportunity for promotion. Be their conduct on or off the job. Red Cans have won the respect admiration of the general public. The National Negro Weekly commander of hospital, Failed act U. S. Employee Officer by U. S.

Not only did he refuse quarters or protection to a Federal employee, but it is alleged that he actually ordered the guards to admit the Klan, during its midnight parade on July 3, to the hospital confines where they made a search for Calhoun, who was at the time among friends in the Tuskegee Institute community, preparing to leave the vicinity. The attitude . . Col. Stanley, commander of the hospital post, raises the question as to what treatment will be accorded disabled veterans by a man so saturated with racial prejudice. Negro Receives Patent On Improvement for Lights George Washington Turner, formerly of Cleveland, Ohio, but now living at 1411 L street, N. W., Washington, D.C., has recently been awarded a patent for a useful improvement on the incandescent electric lamp. This improvement provides for the removal of the burnout filament and a new filament is supplied so that the lamp may be used over and over again, indefinitely. This is done by the affixing of an detachable plug so that a new filament may be screwed in. A vacuum is created after the new plug is inserted. The patent claims were filed on February 4, 1921 and Mr. Turner received the patent on April 10, 1923. This invention was brought through the experiment with burnout electric bulbs. Mr. Turner also holds a patent on an automatic fan, which he attempted to commercialize in 1920. Although he has received several offers, Mr. Turner plans to commercialize his new electric light, as it can be manufactured at practically the same cost of the present lights.

THOMPSON OF YONKERS, CANDIDATE TO HEAD PYTHIANS Charge Present Administration With Oppression and Seeks to Change Officials. Members of the Order of Knights of Pythias, N. A., S. A., E., A. A. & A., popularly known as the "Alphabetical Branch," of the State of New York, are deeply stirred with excitement in anticipation of the annual grand lodge meeting which is to open at Binghamton, N. Y. Monday, July 16, and which promises to be one of the most interesting and exciting in its history. For two years past there has been a certain amount of turmoil growing out of an alleged misappropriation of funds by several officers, and it is reported that an exposure of this condition led to a grand jury investigation, with the result that restitution of these funds is now under way to the treasury of the Order. But according to statements made by interested members of the Order, a more serious condition has been created by a recent edict issued by the Grand Chancellor, decreeing that every member of the Order in New York State must purchase and pay for a Building Temple Bond, failure to do so not later than Saturday, July 14—today—carrying with it the penalty of being dropped from the ranks of the Orden for forsaking all benefits from the lodge and losing all rights in the Eindhoven Policy Department. This edict, it is reported, has stirred up rebellion against Grand Chancellor Lee Crawford, and this rebellion, it is reported, is crystallizing into definite opposition against the reelection of Sir Crawford. In fact, according to the rumors which appear to have substantial form, a candidate for the grand chancellorship is being groomed by those who object to Crawford's attitude. It is stated with authority that Dr. George W. Thompson, a successful physician who has built up a splendid practice at Mt. Vernon, who possesses ability and business experience, is looked upon as the man of the hour by those who would redeem the Order from its present alleged unsatisfactory condition. Those who would urge the doctor to make the race declare that he is fully qualified as an administrator of large affairs, belonging to no faction, with no favorites to reward, and able to bring order, out of chaos. It appears now that his friends, after pleading with him for several weeks to enter the race, have succeeded in gaining his consent. He will have his appeal for support in the alleged injustice to members and infringement of their rights and privileges as embraced in the Grand Chancellor'sdict, since suffering of untold severity will result from the enforcement of his order on those members who do not buy a Temple Building Bond prior to July 14. Dr. Thompson declares that if elected his first official act will be to recall the edict requiring members to invest in a bond on penalty of losing their membership and endowment. He says he stands against one-man government, and is unqualifiedly in favour of government by the members for the members. His supporters delicare that if members of the Pythian Order have felt the iron heel of oppression and mismanagement lately, the candidacy of Dr. Thompson offers them a chance to free themselves. It is a last chance to save themselves from unjust and unlawful taxation, argue Dr. Thompson's friends. He has a record for fearlessness and honesty—qualities which are needed today as much as they ever were, and Pythians are being urged to rally to support of Thompson for grand chancellor at Binghampton next week. C. B. POWELL FILES CIVIL RIGHTS SUIT AGAINST THEATRE Refused orchestra seats in the station al Tiseatre, 208 West 51st street, on May 2. Dr. C. B. Powell, who conducts an ex-ray laboratory at 2372 Seventh avenue, has engaged the law firm of Dyett & Hall, who filed suit against the theatre under the New York Civil Right Law, asking damages for the alleged discrimination of which he was the victim.

Harris Loses His Seat as a City Father—Smith is Seated Alderman Geo. W. Harris Loses His Seat as a City Father—Smith is Seated The claims made by Counsellor John William Smith in November, 1921, to the effect that he, as Democratic candidate for the New-York City Board of Aldermen from the 21st District, had actually been elected, instead of the Republican candidate, George W. Harris, who was given the seat by the Board of Elections, have at last been substantiated by the official canvass made by the Board of Aldermen. On Tuesday, July 10, the Committee on Privileges and Elections made a report to the Board of Aldermen declaring that since January 1, 1922, Harris had been occupying an Alderman seat to which he was not entitled, and recommended that Harris he unsecured and that Smith he given the seat which was rightfully his, the committee having found that Smith had received a majority of 46 votes at the 1921 election. Counsellor Smith was born at Petersburg, Va. January 4, 1875, and attended the public schools of that town. At the age of twenty, he came to New York. While serving as elevator operator in the New York University Law Building, young Smith was permitted to enter the evening division of the law school. He completed his studies and was admitted to the New York Bar in 1901. He was married in 1917 to Miss Marie Norwood of Calhoun Falls, S. C., and lives at 145 West 183th street. He is an active member of Mother Zion Church, and of Celestial Lodge. No. 3, F. & A. M., Timothy Council, I.

Stanley, the white head of the hospital for disabled Negro veterans at Tuskegee, Ala., is reported to have notified the colored nurses at the hospital that he does not wish them to have any contact whatever with the colored people of Tuskegee Institute. These nurses have absolutely no recreation or social quiet as a result of Stanley's announcement and their position is becoming more and more trying every day. On Tuesday night July 3, after the Ku Klux Klan had paraded, several cars of hooded figures went to the hospital and apparently there had been instructions to the guards to let them pass as the hooded figures were saluted by the guards, the ropes taken down and they were permitted to enter upon the reservation and go through certain of the buildings there in search of Calhoun, the colored man who had put up a wonderful fight for his position at the hospital. The colored nurses were not disturbed by the Klansmen but they were, of course, in a state of intense excitement when they found that they were thus exposed and unprotected. REVIVAL TERROR TOO EXUBERANT LEADS TO MAGISTRATE'S COURT North Carolina Evangelist Stirs Brooklyn Neighborhood with Services Held Until 1 A. M. What appears to have been an excess of religious zeal, expressed without regard to comfort, convenience or contentment of the immediate neighborhood, led the Rev. Mr. Sandy ... McDonald, an evangelist, from Newbern, North Carolina, conducting a revival meeting at Mt. Hebron Baptist Church, 592 Marcy avenue, Brooklyn, to an appearance before Magistrate Filiperin in the Gates Avenue Court, on the charge of disturbing the peace. The charge was made by Mrs. Catherine S. Maxwell, who lives at 500 Marcy avenue, next door to the church, who complained to the court that since Jine 12 she and her family had been kept awake until as late as I o'clock in the morning by the unrestrained fervor of the Mt. Hebron congregation, which had been aroused by the fiery exhortations of Evangelist Bright. Under the spell of his utterances, it was testified the people became hysterical with emotion, some to the point that they fainted and had to be removed from the second-story room in which the services were held. The Rev. J. M. Bright is pastor of Mt. Hebron, and he told the court that the Rev. McDonald had been conducting evangelical meetings at that church since June 12 the meetings being held every night in the week except on Saturday night. After Mrs. Maxwell and a number of her neighbors had testified as to the disturbance caused in the neighborhood by the manner in which the meetings had been carried on, even to the extent of overflow congregations gathered in the street in front of the church building and echoing the shouts and cries of the congregation inside, the evangelist waived examination and was released on $500 mail for a hearing in the Court of General Sessions. Rev. McDonald is pastor of the Mt. Sinai Baptist Church at Rapahoe, N. C. Wiggins to Conduct Open-Air Concerts At St. Nicholas Park Colored musicians under the leadership of William H. Wiggins, will be heard in open air concerts during July at St. Nicholas Park, 130th street and St. Nicholas avenue. Through the interview shown by Andrew B. Keating, Leader of the Thirteenth Assembly District and Secretary of the Board of Purchase, arrangements have been made with the city to provide Harlemites with this form of summer entertainment. The dates set for the concerts are Friday, July 13, and Friday, July 27, beginning at 9 p.m. A varied program, conjuring of operatic selections and popular memoirs, will be held. Awarded seat on Board of Aldermen, New York City, sworn in and took office on Tuesday, July 10, thus unseating Geo. W. Harris, who was given seat by Board of Elections, January 1, 1921. HARRIS SOUGHT COURT ORDER, GOT IT, BUT JUDGE CHOOSED HUND Counselor John William Smith, of 145 West 18th street, was sworn in at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 10, as a member of the Board of 'Aldermen, New York City, in place of George W. Harris, who has held the place since January 1, 1921. Smith, however, contested the right of Harris to the seat, and the Committee on Privileges and Elections of the Board of Aldermen reported that a canvass of the returns showed Smith to have a plurality of 46 votes. The Board of Aldermen voted to accept the report. Mr. Harris, in the meantime, through his counsel, went before Judge Ford, and asked for an order restraining the Board of Aldermen from unseating him. This order was served on the President of the Board of Aldermen, but before the case came up for consideration. Judge Ford had signed another order, dismissing the restraining order. Alderman Smith took his seat immediately. THOS. J. GIBSON, P. O. CLERK, MADE FOREMAN TRANSPORTATION DEPT. Thomas J. Gibson of 127 West 138th street, a clerk in the General Post Office, Transportation Department, was recently promoted to the position of foreman. Mr. Gibson has been a postoffice clerk for eleven years, and clerk in charge for the past three years. He is located at the Penn station. He has made a splendid record and deserved the promotion which he has won. He is married, the father of four children. Woman Injured When Trolley Cars Collide Mrs. Selma Thomas of 199 Prince street, Brooklyn, was a passenger on a Fulton street car going West when it was crashed into from the rear by a Flatbush avenue car, the accident occurring at Hanover place and Fulton street, Friday evening, July 6. Mrs. Thomas suffered internal injuries, contusions and abrasions of the body, but her condition is not thought to be serious. She was taken to the Holy Family Hospital. Three other persons were badly hurt. APPEAL FOR A WORTHY CHARITY The Katy Perguson Home, 162 West 130th Street, is in need of groceries.

The good women who make up its membership are determined to do something to remedy conditions in Harlem and to remove the serious menace to the health and welfare of the race which is embraced in the booth-pedding traffic. They are planning a definite campaign with this end in view. The various lodges of the Independent Berevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World are inligently incensed because some of the fake delicatessen places, but which are really boutlegergirl establishments, are displaying the Elks' emblem for advertising purposes. The use of the emblem is indicative of the fact that some colored man, a member of the Order, is employed by the booth proprietor as a salesman, and is an appeal to his fellow-members of the fraternity to bring their patronage to the particular joint in which the emblem is displayed. To add a breach of the law of the land to a violation of lodge ethics, there is usually displayed with the secret order emblem an American flag. Eika Want Emblen Removed. The individual Elks who are employed by the booth seller have been called upon by their fraternity to have the lodge emblems removed from such public display and they have been requested not to allow it to be debased by such use. Officers of the law have had their attention called to the display of the American flag, a display prohibited when it is for advertising purposes, and it is probable that a stop will be put to this practice. Elks of standing and dignity protest that it is a disgraceful condition which should be cleared up and indicate that radical steps will be taken unless the sponsors for such activities take remedial action. Complaints of increasing magnitude and volume continue to be received, indicating that there is little letup in the selling of the poisonous concoctions brewed since prohibition went into effect. A decrease in the actual number of deaths resulting from drinking the stuff indicates that the activity of law enforcement officers has at least had the effect of eliminating the use of wood alcohol. But the stuff sold by delicatessen and other hooch dispensing places is Harlem is of a rawness and alcoholic content that makes its final effect almost as deadly as wood alcohol, according to those familiar with its process of manufacture. It is marketed, they say, as fast as it comes from the home still, with its full content of fuel oil, and with the sharpness of full alcohol strength. It lacks entirely the mellow maturity of age, the period elapsing between its dripping from the still outlet pipe to its being imbibed by the thirsty drinker being a matter of hours only instead of months and years.

For instance, it is practically certain that the majority of the delicatessen hootch joints are operated by one man—the places all bearing signs to this effect that they are Loui's. Another instance is that several lunch stands, offering "hot dogs and hamburgers and rolls at 5 cents each in the front with ample supplies of hooch of all sorts in the rear, are operated, according to imposing signs, by "Al and Sam, and announcements from time to time tell of additional places being opened by the same mysterious firm. In this connection it is alleged that the man who is trying to secure a license for the reopening of "Shuffle In, the basement cabinet conducted in the Lafayette Theatre building, is not only related to the proprietor of a chain of delicatessen booth joints, but is or was actually the proprietor or operator of one himself. There have been some definite and clear-cut complaints made by customers of a cigar store at corner of 134th street and Seventh avenue, to the effect that when going into, the place to purchase cigars, cigarettes or tobacco, they have been informed, in a confidential manner by the man behind the counter, that if they wanted booze of any description he had an ample supply on hand from which their wants could be met. Just what might be the source of his supply, whether it was stuff of his own manufacture or procured through affiliation with underground bootlegging-organizations that pretend to handle the "real stuff," is not divulged. But the information is given without solicitation that there is an ample quantity on hand to serve the most diverse desires: An Objectionable Joint. Complaints continue to be received concerning the place at 73 West 135th street alleged to be run by a Jew known as "Archie". Catering to a low and vicious element, this place is alleged to be a disgrace to the block. It is not only called a "gin joint," but a "hot joint" as well. Witnesses of the condition of some of its patrons, after an exit from the place, say that the inscription over the door should be "Leave hope behind all ye that enter here," for, say they, the Inferno could have no more terrible effect upon its inhabitants than do the beverages dispensed in this place those upon those who imbibe therein. These is a decided increase in sentiment opposing the coming to Harlem of any more "cheap" Jews and other of the bootlegging gentry who have only the one intention, that of catering to the weaknesses of the lower class Negro, satisfying a vicious appetite with dangerous and life-destroying liquor of the various hooch brands. It is being suggested by some that it would be effective if a legitimate boycots were instituted against all the interests allied with this sinister menace against the Harlem community welfare. istor McDonald at Dinner of The Citizens of Harlem ting Different Interests of Com- ction Planned to Bring Era of operation to Better Condition.

FRANK E. HINES, DIRECTOR VETERANS' BUREAU, WASHINGTON, VISITED TUSKEGEE Conferred With White Citizens and Asked that Committee of Three Be Named to Meet With Him in Effort to Solve Problem of Personnel. The visit to Tuskegee, Ala., of Gen. F. E. Hines, Director of the War Veterans' Bureau, in connection taken by Alabama white people in opposition to the naming of colored physicians to administrative positions in the new Rehabilitation Hospital built for the care of disabled Negro war veterans, has given rise to various outcroppings of the peculiar and inconsistent prejudices of southernern. Some 1,000 members of the Ku lux Klan' hooded and masked, anticipated the visit of Director Hines and traversed the "Glorious Fourth" by staging a parade past the grounds of Tuukegery Institute, the Veteran's Hospital, and through the streets of Tuukegery, in protest against the naming of a colored personnel of doctors and nurses to operate this hospital built for colored patients only, so which no white patients will ever be admitted, under present conditions. The parade was held on the eve of July 4th, the masked participants coming from Montgomery, where they foregathered. Every auto in that city rented for the trip. Some idea of the actual workings of the campaign being conducted by the Alabama whites is to be found in the experience of John H. Calhoun, a graduate of Hampton Institute, who recently passed the Civil Service examination for disbursing officer at the Veterans' Hospital a position which has been filled by a white woman who failed to pass the test. Mr. Calhoun was appointed and reached Tuskegee on July 2, reporting for work on the morning of the 3rd. But he was positively informed by the whites that if he stayed in Tuskegee his life would pay the torfeit. Calhoun is not a northern Negro, but after graduating from Hampton he was employed in the chief accountant's office at Tuskegee Institute until May 26, 1923. With the assistance of his friends, Mr. Calhoun was gotten away from Tuskegee just before the Ku jux Klan parade put in its appearance. In this connection, the work of the Inter-Racial Commission, composed of leading white and colored men and women of the South, has been questioned. It was supposed, and the supposition was based on the published statements emanating from moving spirits in the organization, that the Inter-Racial Commission would function in such cases as this one of the Veterans' Hospital, operating to secure for the Negro in the south Some of the fundamental rights and privileges supposed to accrue to him as a man and a citizen. To date, however, it appears that the Inter-Racial Commission has not taken action of any sort in this hospital matter. It is pointed out by some who were most sanguine as to the good results to be achieved by this mingling of the Best of both races in a body looking to establish better racial understanding, that the matter of a Negro personnel for a hospital serving only Negro patients could be made, to serve as an index of the Commission's purpose and of its ability to accomplish its desired end. On the other hand, say these interested parties, there has been nothing developed in the matter which would indicate that the Commission had concerned itself in the matter at all. If the white men and women actively associated in the organization of the Inter-Raelal Commission were to operate as energetically in the matter of securing this legitimate and logical opportunity for Negro doctors, or the Kluwer brothers and their sympathizers in keeping it away, it is probable that the government would be encouraged to reaffirm its declared intention of giving the hospital positions to qualified Negro men and women. White citizens who oppose the naming of a colored personnel for the hospital have expressed their views views both verbally and in writing One W. W. Thompson, evidently of Montgomery, has used nearly a half column of the Montgomery Advertiser's space, to express the hope that the United States will respect what he alleges to be a "gentlemen's agreement" concerning the hospital personnel, that is that white doctors and nurses would be given these desirable positions. Writes Mr. Thompson: "When the government agents were trying to locate a suitable place, they came to Montgomery. Our people didn't want it. They then went to Tuskegee and our people there rejected it but the government agents insisted that was the best location and assured he good citizens that the officers would all be white men. They had him get this confirmed from Washington; then and not until then did they give their consent. Can the government afford to violate a gentleman's agreement?" Following this specious and weak argument, Thompson proceeds to say that even if there was no "gentlemen's agreement" between the government and the white people in Alabama, "surely the government or president will do what is best for all concerned." Proceeding with his argument, the writer switches off in an entirely new direction. He attempts to declare that the northern Negro and the southern white do not speak the same language, don't think alike, have nothing in common. A rather satiric suggestion is contained in the declaration that "The northern Negro wouldn't have good health in the southern climate; nothing here would make him happy, and certainly he doesn't suit our people." Then, with the customary faiety of the southern white man, Thompson proceeded to indie another contradictory argument. He said the southern white man, and the southern Negro understated each other and the southern white man, in the Negro's best friend. Then, after saying that strife and hatred between the races would be stirred up between the races, if Director Hines and resident Harding put colored doctors in the hospital, he went on to say that one or the other race would have to leave "And I have never known the white man to be driven from his home or country." Thompson does not point out that the strife and hatred曼endered so far all on the side of the war. That is, his anger and disappointment at thought of losing the salaries attached to the hospital positions, that to him, loom large and liaisons to his financially arid prospects, that is impelling him to frost at the mouth and fight rabidly to keep the juicy fruit for himself. White physicians in the South, it is well-established, are more and more refusing to accept Negro patients in their general practice. Some of them will not treat any colored patients at all, while others will treat only members of families in which they have practiced for years. Their attitude, in reference to the Veterans' Hospital, where only Negro patients are to be treated, must, therefore, be entirely caused by the salaries attached. And it is an undeniable fact, in this particular, that there many Negro physicians in the South who would accept even the highest salaried position at a financial loss. After asserting that the whites are law-abiding peace-loving people hating trouble and slow to anger, Thompson attempts to cite their record in the recent world war to prove them courageous and faultless in defense of their homes, their state, their country. He did not call attention to the fact that when the Draft Law went into effect a whole Draft Board, composed of southern white men, was ignominiously discharged in disgrace when Federal authorities discovered that the board was exempting all the white men without regard to their eligibility for service and drafting all the colored men. But he does go on in this epistle and write: "We had Negro officers and carpetbaggers back in the 70s and we all who were living in those days remember the trouble we had. It became necessary to organize the Ku Klux Klan. I have an old letter written by the Ku lux Klan to a man in Tskekege, who was misleading the Negro and willing to put them in office, that he might hold one himself and be big chief. The dear old Ku Klux who wrote this letter in 1853 i still living not 30 miles from Tuskekege today. "We are told that the northern Negro is demanding that they be put in charge and are threatening the Republican party with their vote. Certainly this great government cannot have a state turn up in order to get a few Negro politicians' votes; certainly they would not violate contract to get a few Negro votes and lose the respect and support of thousands of white voters. "The southern Negro loves the South and the southern white man and all the trouble we ever had was caused by designing politicians. The President is bound to know that the South is the best place for the Negro. Northern people first brought slaves to this country and landed them in the North. They couldn't use them or manage them successfully so they sold them to the South; the Negro soon learned to love the South and the white race. As proof of this they remained here after they were freed and all prefer living here today. "THEY CANNOT THRIVE IN THE NORTH: THE NORTHERN PEOPLE CANNOT LONG MANAGE THEM AND GREAT WILL-BE THAT MASSACRE IN SOME OF THE NORTHERN CITIES SOME DAV-NOT FAR OFF. "If the government wanted northern Negroes to manage this hospital, they should have located it in the North, and if they low want northern Negroes to manage it, for God's sake let them move it quickly." "EVERY INSTITUTION IN THE SOUTH SHOULD BE MANAGED BY WHITE MEN, FOR AS LONG AS THE BLOOD OF THE SOUTH-ERNERS-COURSE OUR VEINS, THE WHITE MEN WILL CONTROL THE SOUTH. IT IS NECESSARY THAT WE DO SO, NO NEGRO OFFICER CAN DO GOOD HERR. OUR PEOPLE WILL NOT STAND FOR IT. THEY WAVE, BEEN TRIED AND NEVER FOUND WANTING." Mr. Thompson emphasized an unyning truth in his last phrase—"They have been often tried and never found wanting." For the Negro's record bears him out in this particular and admits of no argument. Director Hines reached Techegue on July 5 two days after the Ku Klux Klan demonstration, and spent a day in conference with white chicanes of Tuskegee, officers of Techegue Institute and Cok. R. H. Stanley, commanding officer at the Veterans' Hospital. Fifteen patients are being treated, and the staff is made up of Negro nurses with white doctors.

(Cloud Saturdays) VOCATIONAL SCHOOLS FOR COLORED PUPILS ARE NOW IN 17 STATES The colored ocy who wishes to become a farmer can now receive practical agricultural training in the public schools of his community, says Calvin F. McIntosh, member of the Federal Board for occational Education. In fifteen of the seventeen southern states which maintain separate public schools for Negroes, vocational schools of agriculture have been organized. In these schools, all colored ocy is offered intensive training to fit him for all branches of practical farming. At the close of fiscal year 1921-22, 133 schools of 1965 occational agricultural schools for Negroes were in operation. This number compares with 133 schools, reported for the previous year. Pupils enrolled in agricultural classes in 1921-22 numbered 4,064. In 1920-21, the enrollment was only 3,243. The increase for the year approximated 25 per cent. The only limiting factor to the expansion of these schools is the lack of trained Negro vocational teachers says Mr. McIntosh. To supply teachers, the states are maintaining teacher-training schools. Last year, 280 prospective vocational teachers were in training in these schools. In 12 of the states, further assistance is given to vocational teachers by litterant teacher trainers who spend part of each year travelling from school to school, and aiding in the organization of local work. Negro vocational education is supported by combined Federal, State, and local appropriations. Under the Federal Vocational Education Act, the states receive an annual grant of Federal vocational funds, on condition that they match the Federal money, dollar for dollar, by state and local appropriations. All schools receiving Federal and state money must be public, and must be of a character to actually fit the graduate pupil to successfully enter the vocation of agriculture. The cost of such schools is almost completely reimbursed by the yield of farm products of the pupils, in supervised practice work. All agricultural pupils are required to put in sixmonths of each year in practice farming, under school supervision. During the fiscal year 1920-21, farm projects were completed by 2,475 pupils in the colored schools. The total crop yield from such projects was $211,389.08 A new development in the vocational field is the organization of part-time and evening classes, for adult farmers. At the close of the fiscal year 1922-22 there were 64 part-time or evening schools in operation, with an enrollment of 1.035 pupils. Through the part-time and evening schools, vocational training is extended to the great group which is already outside of the public schools. The Negro vocational schools are conducted directly by the states with the cooperation of the Federal Board for Vocational Education. H. O. Sarent is the field representative of the Federal Board in this activity. The Tuskegee citizens were asked to name a committee of three to confer with Director Hines in an effort to solve the problem of the hospital control. Press d.spatches quote the director as saying he would not be a party to anything that might be detrimental to the Tuskegee community. The whites immediately named Dr. L. W. Johnston, W. W. Campbell and State Senator R. H. Powell, all of Tuskegee, and this committee will meet in Washington with Director Hines. Mrs. Brown Lecturing and Sedalia Quartet. Singing At Northfield Conference Cambridge, Mass.—The Sedalia Quartet, representing the Palmer Memorial Institute, Sedalia, N.

Police Inspector McDonald Is Guest at Dinner of the Colored Citizens of Harlem THE NEW YORK AGE (Continued from First Page) to the guest of honor, were the master of ceremonies, Hon. Charles W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue; Ferdinand Q. Morton, Civil Service Commissioner; Assistant District Attorney James McLendon; Warren Logan, treasurer of Tuskegee Institute; Dr. J. A. Kerney, superintendent of the John A. Andrews Hospital, Tuskegee Institute; Deputy Inspector Lyons; Captain Mulroney; former Alderman Dr. Charles H. Roberts; former Alderman George W. Harris; Dr. Eugene P. Roberts; the Rev. Dr. A. C. Garner; Fred R. Moore, editor of The Age; James H. Hubert of the New York Urban League; Lester A. Walton on the New York World; Lucien H. White, managing editor of The Age; Lonnie Hicks, G. A. Fleming and Everett Chappelle. The menu as served in splendid style by J. M. Gaither, caterer, of 436 Lenox avenue, was unusually fine and was thoroughly enjoyed by the guests present. It was as follows: Lettuce and tomato salad, French dressing Napolitan ice cream Assorted cakes Cafe Cigars While this food was being eaten, President Hicks put on a vaudeville bill that was super-excellent. It was given in the main by various of the dinner guests, but the roster will include many of the outstanding performers of the race now on the vaudeville stage or-engaged in making records for the big phonograph companies. Entertainers from the Royal Garden, Happy Rhones and the Capitol Palace Cabarets gave several numbers, and among the artists who were called on the tables who stage the Roi Rolin (Bangladesh), of the Keith Cirelli, Broadway Jones, possessor of an unusually fine voice; Earl Dancer, Henry Saparn, Andrew Copeland, Lizzie Miles, Waller, a pianist, who played for many of the artists, and President Lomie Hicks himself, who furnished the musical inspiration for "Bojangle's" unusual turn. Thomas Hackett, one of the white guests, was called on and disclosed a good voice of considerable power. When the menu had been disposed of, Collector Anderson, in his capacity of master of ceremonies, tailed the various groups to order an, in his unusual felicious and happy manner dwelt briefly upon the gathering and its purpose. He read letters from Father Thomas F. O'Keele of the Catholic Church of St. Benedict the Moor, and the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, and gave a verbal message from the Rev. J. W Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, all of whom were unable, by reason of other activities, from being present. Former Alderman Charles H. Roberts was the first speaker called on, and he sounded eloquently the need of cooperation between the citizens and officers as fundamental to improving conditions and maintaining Harlem as a desirable place in which to live. Former Alderman Harris and Commissioner Morton were next called on. Mr. Morton declared that the good work of the police force was not known to the public because it was not given the publicity which attended their failings. He urged that a knowledge of their good points, of which there are many, would help to cooperation between citizens and officers. Fred R. Moore spoke of the need of removing from Harlem the numerous booth joints camouflaged as delicatessens and other innocent appearing businesses. He declared that the poisonous concoctions of denatured alcohol dispensed in these places were used by many Negroes to their utter demoralization, leading often to a horrible death. He deplored the coming into the community of men alien in every way to the interests of the Negro, but operated these joints with the sole purpose of getting as many as possible of the dollars spent by the Negroes—money which should really be used for the benefit of the speaker's own people. - He referred specially to the proposed reopening of the Shuffle Inn cabaret by one Immerman and to the chain of delicatessen foot joints run under one man's name (Louis). There are enough resorts of the cabaret type in Harlem, said the speaker, but if any more are to be opened let it be done by members of our own race after consultation and advising with the men forming the Cabaret Owners' Association and others who are cooperating for betterment. Incidentally, Mr. Moore referred to his having been associated with three men for some eighteen years in the effort to place their business on a sane and decent basis, that it might take its proper place as a legitimate and desirable commercial enterprise. The Rev. A. C. Garner of Grace Congregational Church of Harlem spoke of the need of church's cooperation with all elements of the community, and of what potential value is such a combination, as these men have effected. Inspector McDonald was next introduced to the diners, and he made a most interesting and illuminating talk. He explained to the master of ceremonies that he was engaged in a maiden effort—never having made a public speech before, but the importance of the occasion and the deep interest which he has in reaching a plane of thorough understanding with a group which comprises so large a percentage of the citizens of his present district overcame natural timidity and gave him courage to try and say something that would indicate his intentions. He said that Commissioner Enright THE PORO AGENT RENDERS A DISTINCTIVE SERVICE It Pays to Patronize Her had instructed him to give particular attention to Harlem, not because of any excess of crime, but because he was desirous of securing and maintaining the most friendly relations and understanding with the people of the district. Inspector McDonald said he based his actions on fair play, and exhibited a button he was wearing, given to him by Commissioner Enright, indicating membership in the Fair Play Society, an organization designed to cooperate with the Police Department, and conferring on its members access to police headquarters records for investigation and understanding. He ledged his best service to the community, extending an open invitation to all citizens to call and talk with him at any time upon matters of concern to their interests, promising favorable action where possible, or a thorough explanation of any impossible situation. The Inspector referred also to the hooch situation in Harlem as told of by Editor Moore, and declared that these places were sore spots to him. It would gratify him beyond measure, said the official, if he could feel that he was making any measurable progress in eliminating these pest holes which are everything Mr. Moore said they are and even more. Deputy Inspector Lyons and Captain Mulrooney echoed the sentiments expressed by their chief and urged that with the cooperation and assistance of the citizens of Harlem the task of hittering conditions would be made easier. The opening blessing had been asked by Warren Logan of Tuskegee Institute. At conclusion of the speeches, the orchestra, which had rendered, exceptionally well, various jazz numbers through the evening, closed the affair with the playing of "Auld Lang Syne." Many of the diners took advantage of the opportunity to meet Inspector McDonald. Deputy Inspector Lyons, Captain Mulrooney and other of the officials and visitors present.

(From The New York Sun and Globe) The migration of Negroes from the Southern States, which is continuing unabated, bids to have for reaching consequences. Not only will it bring about a more equal racial distribution, but it may well effect a revolution in agriculture in the South and secure there better treatment for the coolred people. The efforts of Senator Harris and others to bring immigrants from Scandinavia to the South are evidence enough that the cotton and tobacco planters are becoming seriously alarmed. Cheap labor has always been the mainspring of the system of extensive agriculture which has existed south of Mason and Dixon's one since early Colonial days, and the desertion of the Negro workers may make it necessary for the large estates to be cut up and sold to little proprietors. This development is but no means unwholesome and would strengthen rather than weaken the Southern economic system. But to the planter who sees his laborers flooding off to the North, it seems entirely destructive, and he is using every means in his power to stop it. In this fact lies the opportunity of the Negro to obtain fairer treatment, an opportunity which he is not slow to utilize. A conference of leaders of the race in Georgia has just addressed a communication to the Legislature stating on the one hand that they desire to remain in the South; but on the other setting forth a list of grievances which they demand shall be remedied. Prominent among these are higher farm wages, better housing conditions, better educational facilities, equality in the enforcement of laws, the repeal of contract labor laws, the elimination of mob violence. That some or all of these requests will, eventually be granted hardly admits of doubt. The South has the alternative of deserted fields or of better treatment for the people who till them.

The unreasonable demand of a certain element of Alabama whites to control the patronage of the Veterans' Hospital, established at Tuskegee for the treatment of disabled Negro soldiers, has precipitated a situation which will test the good faith and firmness of the Harding administration, so far as the Negroes of this country are concerned. Through fabricated press reports and intimidation of all kinds, the white Alabamians have inspired to set at naught the determination of President Harding to open the hospital with a colored personnel and to put Southern whites in control. Whether this harefaced attempt to overturn the decision of the Chief Executive succeeds or not, this incident has exposed the fundamental weakness of the administration in dealing with Southern intolerance and domination. It also shows the inability of the administration leaders to recognize the fact that the Negro race in this country has progressed in spirit, as well as in material things during the past fifty years. The absurdity of the demand of the white Southerners that they should control an institution of this character is so apparent as to make questionable the sanity of those who demand white control in this South. The plea made by the advocates of white control for a colored institution that the appointment of a colored person will stir up strife and hatred between the races is far stretched and unconvincing. It might just as well be argued for the fact that Tuskegee Institute is manned and controlled by colored officers and instructors, would produce the same results. The extreme Southern white attitude is stared by one of those advocates in the following broad terms: "Every institution in the South should be managed by white men, for as long as the blood of the Southerners course our veins, the white men will control the South." The Republican administration at Washington cannot afford to allow the spirit of the Ku Klux Klan and white domination to direct the policy that should prevail in a government institution. Such a surrender to intolerance and empathy would be suicidal. Not only would it alienate colored voters all over the country, but it would violate the sense of justice of all unmindful men and women of the white race. The small but growing element of progressive white Southerners who have fostered the inter-racial cooperation movement, would not countenance such a travesty of justice. The Republican administration should realize that Warren G. Harding was elected the head of the government and is responsible for its policies. His cabinet was selected by him to carry out these policies. To surrender the power to change these policies to representatives of the Ku Klux Klan, or any other Southern clique, would be the earliest shame and folly. There is need for fearless and vigorous handling of the matter by the responsible heads of the administration. Surrender to the clamor of the mob, or to the mischievous activities engineered by Southern officials who failed to enforce the declared policy of the President, would be a fatal error for this administration. The test of the Harding administration is to be found in this matter. If the Government cannot enforce its selection of the personnel of the Veterans Hospital at Tyskegue, it might as well turn over the Federal offices to the leaders of the Ku Klux Klan. The black soldiers fought in the World War to help save democracy for the people of Europe. They should be given the benefits of democracy in a government institution designed to restore them to health. Inter-Racial Cooperation. While exhibitions of racial intolerance and prejudice usually claim the public limelight and the front pages of the newspapers, there is a movement of another sort in the South, which is seeking to build up better relations between the two races. Started at Atlanta, where the Ku Klux Klan has its national headquarters, the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation is slowly building the foundations of an antidote to the Klan virus, which poisoning the life of so many communities. This commission is notable for the fact that it is the only organization in which members of high status can most on a vital to their welfare dispassionately and with an eye to their mutual good. Local branches have been established in various communities and the Good Will tour of Georgia made by Dr. Moton and his parity a year ago was part of its program. This organization was particularly active in getting the best white people to attend these meetings, where they could hear the plea of the Negro for justice presented by speakers of his own race. One of the objects of the commission is the creation of public sentiment in the backwoods of the South in favor of the enforcement of law and order and the suppression of mob outrages and lynching. Its arguments in favor of such a movement are not based solely on the fact that the Negro is too frequently the innocent victim of these mobs, but that white men and women are also not infrequently whipped or otherwise maltreated by irresponsible parties. The commission is moulding sentiment in favor of preserving the peace and forbidding the outbursts of mob fury against either white or black vultains. Such occurrences as the Murders at Mer Rouge, La., and the whipping to death of a white prisoner in a Florida county convict camp emphasized this phase of the matter. In addition to endeavoring to create the right kind of public sentiment in these various communities, the commission is also trying to secure the passage of anti-lynching laws by the legislatures of the Southern states. It has also been instrumental in bringing about a protest against lynching by several organizations composed of white women. This action has in great measure nullified the plea that lynching is necessary as a protection to the womanhood of the South. Two forces are actively at work in trying to effect better conditions in the South. One is this commission on inter-racial cooperation and the other is the migration movement among the Negroes. The latter is largely caused by the oppressive conditions, which have become so intolerable in certain sections as to afford no relief but that of flight. The other is slowly working to alleviate these conditions by bringing about a more enlightened public sentiment, which will put a stop to the reign of intolerance and oppression. The necessity for both movements can be measured by such exhibitions as the maltreatment of a bishop of one of the branches of African Methodism in Arkansas, because he did not leave the shelter of a railroad station quickly enough to suit the tempter of the surly white boy in charge. His subsequent arrest and conviction on a trumped up charge was in accordance with the dictum, that the word of a white man should prevail, regardless of the circumstances of the case and no matter how unjust and unfounded the charge. Another exhibition of this intolerance is the hospital situation at Tuskegee, where the whites object to an institution established for Negro soldiers being manned by a colored personnel. There is a vast field still open for the saving influence of the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation. May its promoters not become discouraged by the immensity of the task before them, but inspired by the true spirit of humanity and Christianity, continue their efforts to bring about better conditions for the South, and for the Negro. Direct Representation. The recent action of the executive committee of the Republican County Committee, in declaring by unanimous vote that "the rights and wishes of the colored people should be directly presented to the Republican party councils by members of the race," is significant as a concession to racial pleas for fuller representation. The further provision that the executive members from the 19th and 21st assembly districts designate from each district a colored man and woman, as executive members furnished a simple and practical means of carrying out this policy. In accordance with this action, Dr. Charles H. Roberts, former alderman, and Misa. Sadie Wright were named as such executive members from the 21st district. These selections made by the present executive member, Hon. Robert Conkling, are to be commended on the ground of fitness and character. Similar action is expected from the executive member of the 19th district, Hon. David B. Costuma, who will select equally fit representatives of the race to participate in the party councils. So long as these two districts possess Republican leaders of such calibre as the present executive members, who are fair and square in their dealings with all voters of the party, regardless of race or color, this method of according representation may be expected to work equally. The importance of having direct representation in the executive committee of the party cannot be overestimated, as that body is the seat of party power for the political unit comprised in the county. These candidates for office are approved or rejected, party policies are decided upon and political patronage apportioned. On all these matters it is essential that the voters of the race should have the rights to a voice and a hearing. The expression of their wishes through a third party, however, interested or sympathetic that executive member might be, has not always proved effective in getting results. The method of direct representation as now proposed may accomplish more in this direction. At any rate if deserves a trial. The Baltimore Afro-American suggested the following slogan for Henry Ford's Presidential campaign—"Honk for Hank." That's all right as far as it gets, but it requires more than a hank. THE NEW YORK AGE The fact that lynching flourishes most in the backwoods of ignorance and moral depravity is shown in the fact that of the fifteen cases reported during the past six months, nearly one half took place in Florida. This state is rightly accounted one of the most backward in the Union, along the lines of education and civilization. And yet the Hon. William Jennings Bryan, in paving his way to political preferment there, had to avow his belief in white domination and the suppression of the Negro vote. If Florida had more schools and moving pictures of the right kind, it might be weaned from its indulgence in barbaric excesses. In redeeming Florida from savagery, Mr. Bryan might find a cause worthy of his powers. The wannah savagery of lynching is居 THE VETERANS' HOSPITAL AFFAIR. The affair of the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee has reached a critical point. The crisis involves not only the safety and perhaps even the lives of persons connected with Tuskegee Institute but also in a large measure the future of the Institute itself. On the night of July 3, according to dispatches from Tuskegee, seven hundred Klansmen made a threatening demonstration against both the hospital and the Institute. The situation reached such an acute stage that several persons connected with the Institute sought safety by leaving and those who remained felt that they were in jeopardy. Director Hines of the Veteran's Bureau arrived at Tuskegee in the very height of the excitement. He had gone from Washington for the purpose of making an investigation and an adjustment of the situation. From the latest dispatches, up to the time of this writing it appears that Director Hines' adjustment is nothing more than an object capitulation to the demands of insurrectionary mob violence. However, this is not much of a surprise. As far as our experience goes, we have never yet seen an adjustment between the rights of colored citizens and the wishes of prejudiced whites which did not result in a yielding to the wishes of the whites. Director Hines is reported as stating that he would be "no party to anything that will bring about trouble here (Tuskegee) between the white people and the Negroes." This means, in plain words, that he will do nothing to interfere with the plans and prejudices of the local white people. In such a decision no consideration whatever is given to the rights or the wishes of the people of Tuskegee Institute or the colored people of the whole country. Director Hines had a conference with three "trusted" Tuskegee citizens, one an Alabama State senator, another a local banker, and the third a resident of Tuskegee who is a trustee of Tuskegee Institute. As the "World" of July 7 said in an editorial, General Hines might just as well have telegraphed the Supreme Wizard to appoint three King Kleagles to confer with him on the matter. Director Hines is further quoted as saying to the Tuskegee white committee, "There is no contract binding the Government to place a white personnel at the hospital but there appears to be a moral obligation." This moral obligation, it seems, rests upon a statement made by one member of the white committee, Senator Powell, that the town of Tuskegee "had the promise of a representative of the Treasury Department that the hospital would be in charge of white officers and doctors and that the people considered this a binding obligation." Who this representative of the Treasury Department is was not stated in the dispatch, but whoever he was, why should his promise to the people of Tuskegee bind President Harding and the heads of the Veterans' Bureau. President Harding has promised to individuals and also in a written communication over the signature of his secretary that the personnel of the hospital would be colored. Why should the promise of a subordinate in the Treasury Department take precedence over the President's promise? The whole situation is one which again puts to the test the administration as it is related to colored people. From appearances we have the Government itself scared and over-awed by a handful of mobbists. The Government can settle this whole matter in an hour by taking a firm stand and adhering to it. These Ku Kluxks around Tuskegee are merely running a bluff and will, of course, carry it as far as they can; but if the President has a backbone the size of a toothpick he will call their bluff. The contention of the white people in Alabama in this matter is so absurd that it is difficult to write about it with patience. They have put forth arguments that could not be matched in a convention of lunatics. They claim to fear that a colored personnel in charge of the hospital will be a menace to the town of Tuskegee, that they fear grave consequences if Negroes are in control of a hospital housing a large number of Negro veterans. Of course, they themselves do not believe what they are saying. Tuskegee Institute is a powerful institution with several hundred teachers and fifteen hundred students, entirely administered by Negroes, which has been in their midst for a number of years and they have never had to experience the slightest apprehension. The hospital is not situated in the town of Tuskegee. It is on the grounds of Tuskegee Institute. It will house only a lot of disabled and incapacitated men and will be directly under the control of the United States Government. How could it in any way menace the safety of the white people of Tuskegee. The absurdity of the situation is increased by the fact that we have these proud Alabamians clamoring for the privilege of serving and waiting upon Negro ex-soldiers. Where are the sacred traditions of the South? Thrown to the winds, and for what? For jobs. This incident is the supreme test of the theory of inter-racial adjustment as laid down by Southern white people. Here we have Tuskegee Institute, which has always stood for peaceful and harmonious relationship between the races, for the working out of the problem through patient effort, through industry and thrift on the part of the Negro by following the line of least friction; and yet we have the white people under the very shadow of this institution threatening the security of the school and those connected with it because of the probability of having within the enclosure of the school grounds a hospital for disabled Negro soldiers administered by colored doctors and nurses. Director Hines, according to reports from Tuskegee, suggested an escape from the regrettable dilemma—and it is a regrettable dilemma, for it ought to be clear now, if it was not before, that Tuskegee Institute had nothing to gain by having this hospital upon its grounds even if all the arrangements had been most satisfactory. The institute had always been an independent governing body without any outside authority over it. This it could not be with a government hospital upon its grounds. The presence of the government there would naturally impose a sort of super-authority, at least a conflict of authority. General Hines' suggestion, as reported, is to make the hospital an institution for white disabled soldiers. This, it seems to us, would render the whole situation worse. We dislike to contemplate what the presence of hundreds of white ex-soldiers on the grounds of Tuskegee would mean. Perhaps General Hines' suggestion cannot be carried out. It is likely that in deeding the ground for the hospital to the government the Board of Trustees of Tuskegee Institute stipulated specifically that the hospital was to be for Negro veterans. We hope that this is the fact. We would suggest that the government deed the land back to Tuskegee and donate or sell the buildings to the Institute for dormitory and other purposes and make arrangements for the hospital elsewhere. This would be no disadvantage to the Negro veterans and would be an overstimulating benefit to Tuskegee itself. NEGRO LABOR AND THE STEEL TRUST. Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the Board of the United States Steel Corporation, has been under fire regarding the twelve-hour day observed in the corporation's plants. Various organizations all over the country have been protesting against the fact that the Steel Trust works its men such long hours. Mr. Gary was at first on the defensive. Some weeks ago he came out in a statement in which he defended the twelve-hour day, making the old capitalistic argument that the men were really better off working twelve hours than they would be working eight hours because they had four hours more at work to keep out of mischief. But now Mr. Gary is willing to abolish the twelve-hour day. The only reason he asserts for not carrying it out is that the plants have not sufficient men to work them. He declared that at least sixty thousand more workers must be had before the twelve-hour day can be abolished. Mr. Gary knows that these men cannot be secured by the immigration from Europe. He made a desperate effort some months ago to impress the government that the immigration gates ought to be thrown wide open, but he failed to do so. He now states that the men may be secured by bringing Negroes from the South and by letting in Filipinos and Mexicans. We do not know just how many Mexicans can be let in and we are not sure that the little brown men from the Philippines could stand the work in the steel plants. This leaves the greatest opportunity open for Negro laborers from the South. In commenting upon Mr. Gary's statement, Ethelbert Stewart, Chief of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, said, "The recent importation of Negroes from the Southern States has brought about a sufficient supply of labor in the industry. They can get plenty more from that source if they need them." We believe that the Steel Corporation, now convinced of the fact that it cannot force the government to let down the immigration bars and flood the country with foreign labor, will turn to the Negroes of the South for their supply of man power. This will mean a fresh impetus to the exodus. In relation to the above we have, received a clipping of a full-page advertisement which appeared in the Memphis "Commercial Appeal" of July 3. The advertisement is headed, "STAY IN THE SOUTH." It has a picture of a railroad train headed North bringing Negro migrants and a shadow representation of Booker T. Washington standing in front of the train waving it back. The reading matter of the advertisement consists largely of advice put into the mouth of Booker T. Washington urging the Negro to stay in the South. On the same night that this advertisement appeared the Ku Klux Klan paraded around the grounds of Tuskegee Institute threatening the security of the institution which Booker T. Washington founded, and the safety of those who succeeded him in carrying on the work. The irony of the picture in this advertisement compared with what happened the same night at Tuskegee need not be pointed out. Is Lynching Decreasing? According to the records compiled at Tuskegee Institute in the Department of Records and Research, in charge of Monroe N. Work, in the first month of 1923, there were fifteen lynchings. This is fifteen less than for the same period of 1922, and twenty-one less than for the first half of 1921. The record furnishes the further details of these lynchings as follows: Of those lynched, two were whites and thirteen were Negroes. One of the latter was a woman. One of those put to death was charged with the crime of rape. The other offenses charged were: Murder; 2; killing officers of the law; 2; wounding officer of the law; 2; no charge reported; 2; assisting man charged with rape to escape; 1; trying to pass for white; 1; resisting posse searching for man charged with rape; 1; participating in depredations connected with railroad strike; 1; cattle stealing; 1; trying to act like white man and not knowing his place. 1 The states in which lynchings occurred and the number in each state are as follows: Arkansas, 1; Florida, 7; Georgia, 2; Louisiana, 1; Mississippi, 2; Missouri, 1 and Texas, 1. This apparent decrease in the manifestations of the mob spirit in the South must not be taken too confidently as a sign of reformation. There are several separate and distinct reasons which may account for the smaller number of victims sacrificed to the lust of the mob for human sacrifices. Not the least of these reasons is the migration of the Negroes by hundreds and thousands from those regions where the mob spirit has been most violent. At the sacrifice of most of their worldly possessions, they have fled from the remote country districts to the comparative safety of the larger cities, and in many cases to the North. The anti-lynching campaign conducted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, although it failed of its ultimate objective in the passage of the Dyer bill, achieved moral victory in riveting national attention, including the South, upon the message of lynching to our civilization. The work of the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation must also be counted as a valuable factor in arousing the best sentiment of the white South in opposition to this evil. The example of the city officials of Savannah and the State authorities of Georgia in successfully resisting a mob bent on lynching a prisoner, is proof of this awakened sentiment. led for murder by the mob. In only one case of the fifteen was the stereotyped charge of rape made against the victim. The frivolous charges, trying to pass for white and trying to act like a white man and not knowing his place, were deemed sufficient cause for putting a human being to a cruel and sudden death. Lynchning may be decreasing in numbers and in frequency, but it is too soon to assume that the spirit of the mob has been changed. There is need for all the factors engaged in fighting this national menace to redouble their efforts to uproot the evil. The need for a Federal law against mob violence still exists. The States in many instances have abdicated their rights by failing to protect their citizens in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Rockefeller Benefactions While parlor socialists and political economists may cavil at the methods which permit the accumulation of such great fortunes from the exploitation of natural resources as the millions made out of the oil products of America, it must be admitted that the wise use and disposition of these swollen fortunes constitutes an equally grave problem. The manner in which this problem has been met and handled by the chief beneficiaries of this fortune, the two Rockefellers, father, and son, should be a matter of congratulation to all good Americans. Instead of becoming submerged by the golden flood and becoming crushed by its accumulating weight, they devised various outlets to turn it into channels of useful relief for struggling humanity. Millions of this money has been carefully and helpfully distributed through such agencies as the General Education Board, for the spread of general enlightenment, and through the Rockefeller Institute, to fight disease of various kinds and bring good health as a boon to humanity in all parts of the globe. The Rockefeller benefactions have not been confined to any one race or any particular section. Black and white, yellow and brown races, afflicted by disease, victims of famine or flood, or striving to rise from ignorance and poverty, have been aided by the one or the other of the various funds established to distribute the means of relief in the proper direction. Many educational institutions established for the Negro race in this country have shared in the apportionment of funds derived from the Rockefeller benefactions, while deserving charitable and welfare projects such as the Katy Ferguson Home of New York have received needed aid and support from the younger philanthropist. The administration of the charity and welfare funds established by the Rockefeller millions has been without a color line, which is characteristic of the personal attitude of the two men of that name who are responsible for these funds. The Indianapolis Freeman noted with approval the decision of a woman's organization to engage in a needed welfare work for girls. It said: The decision of the Woman's Club to devote its energies toward the establishment of a home for unfortunate Negro girls is thoroughly commendable. Such an institution is one of the outstanding means of this community. The social services organization of the city is distinguished. Saturday, July 14, 1923. ly baffled by the problem concerning with this class of unfortunate children are two or three homes for white Negro girls are permitted to be flotsam and jetsam of a certain society.

D. Smith) Few events of recent years have more disdiscretable to the North than threats of lawlessness at Tupelo, an on account of the appointment of gro medical officers at the gro habitation hospital erected there by government. If the hospital were for whites, or if it were proposed to employ employees under the command of gro officers it would be altogether worse. But the place has been built trained for Negro soldiers at the gro educational institution, the reason in the world why white people here in any way with white people consequently there is no reason to world why white people should cooperate with it. The only possible explanation for the protest is a discreditation that the people who are protesting are opposed to recognition of the law and skill of Negro slaves. The record that the veteran slaves are to be treated, have raised an issue. The protest has been in white and white whites alone. Is this a true reflection of the spirit of the South? Are we deterred by the Negro out of the law and slaves, even when I have no attempt to part in his protest, kept within his own race? Are we not to deny to a man on account of his skin opportunity to make of the talents God has given? If so, then the worst that can have ever said of us is true to take that attitude, then we are guilty of harboring a desire to establish the worst features of slavery. The Daily News cannot be trusted. But if it is not true, then the attempt to drive Negroes in Tuskegee hospital should be vigorously by Southern public Doubtless the attempt will be The government cannot yield to it. But for the promise its own good name, the attempt be badly denied by the South tempt in itself will do no great harm for the world understand. For the South, like every other its due proportion of morals and whose actions cannot always be trolled by the decent and unimaginable. The danger is that the may believe that this crime ported by the better element tacitly. It is to correct an assertion that the South should outbreak unsparingly. Gen.

Negro Art. (From the New Orleans Item) A Negro vaudeville troupe recently gave an entertaining midnight performance for white folks in the Lyric theatre. Albert, age four, was "headliner." Looking mildly small when alone on the stage, he played his part and danced with such vim and naturalness that the white folks could not help appreciating and applauding. Part of it was training, but most of it was the natural expression of his racial instinct for rhythm, music and gesture. His play or his acting, was so natural that it was hard to distinguish between them. That is why his performance was so good. A reporter, describing the scene back-stage, told how the Negro actors, waiting for their cues, joked, pacted steps, pantomimed and eagerly watched the ones on the stage. Even off stage they are minstrels, fun making actors. A white minstrel, off stage would have sat upon a trunk and clumsy cursed the heat. The Negro has an art, music and mannerism all his own. The white man cannot amitate it. It isn't in his blood. We've borrowed the Negro's jazz and danced to it, but we cannot create it. Our ancestors were born in the wrong place for that. There is a haunting, pulling, minor strain in the true Negro melody and jazz that the white man cannot imitate. No white man could have composed "Swing Low Sweet Charion." He hasn't the background, the background of centuries of oppression. The Negro's music and his minstrel art is all his own. Neill O'Brien and Al Fields through long years of practice are clever imitators, and amusing as such, but, after all, they are only imitators. The Negro has his art, and there is something pathetic in the picture of a true artist denied expression of his art because of a black skin. Providence, R. I. Providence, R. I.-Troop 11, Boy Scouts.

PULLMAN PORTER NEWS Among the race's present-day friends, there is none, in our humble opinion, who has made exactly the same effort to secure a recognition of the educational and scientific achievement of the Negro as the originator and donor of the Spingarn medal, Mr. Joel B. Spingarn. Take the case of the latest, recipient—the man who did to the peanut—and potato, what Heinz & Co. have done to the bean, pickle and tomato—what did the public know or care about George Washington Carver? He may have been slightly known in scientific circles and among those who are well informed on matters pertaining to the advancement of individual Negroes, but outside of his immediate vicinity and state, we dare say, he was practically unknown. Yet, overnight, we find him one of the most talked of and read about men in America. All this publicity, the sort we need most, is due to the awarding of the Spingarn Medal. So much for that reason for appreciating Mr. Spingarn. But there is still another. We frequent have the opportunity, and, we might say, the pleasure, of serving him and his family in their travel between New York and their summer home, and making our asarients strictly from an attendant's viewpoint we are always glad to have any member of the family on our train. Their conduct is of that quality which makes serving a very pleasant occupation. In fact, in serving folk of their calibre, if not careful, one is apt to forget he is the servant in the house, which, after all, wouldn't do in the handling of the public. However, it is refthesing to have passengers of the Spingarn type now and then. Laster Cottage. Spring Lake Beach, N. J.—Mrs. Leah Laster, prominent business woman of Spring Lake Beach, N.

The day dawned bright and balmy; the rays of Old Sol shed their warmth and glory upon all who responded to the call of our bell which summoned us to worship. "Upon this rock I build my Church," was the text of the rector who with this as his basis gave us the early history of our church. Following him from its beginning, he led us to the year of 1913 when the call to duty was answered by our present rector, Rev. J. W.

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS Harry Wills Makes Camp at East Cheshire, Mass., and Begins Training for Jack Has Engaged Leo Gates as Sparring Partner and Hopes To Be in Shape If Long-Desired Chance To Meet the Champion, Jack Dempsey, Ever Eventuates. PAGE SIX Harry Wills Make East Cheshire Begins T Has Engaged Leo Gates as To Be in Shape If Long the Champion, Jack Den Harry Wills, the leading colored heavyweight in the country and a strong contender for a championship bout with Jack Dempsey, established camp at East Chester, Maas, and began training with the hope that he is at last about to get a chance to meet the champion. Wills and many of his friends realize that he will have a hard time, getting into condition for such a bout, as the Brown Panther has had a hoff of a year and has only fought about four bouts in the last three years. Leo Gates, a heavyweight, recently returned to New York, has been engaged as his sparring partner. His manager feels that Wills will need at least one bout before fighting Dempsey, and has agreed to permit the colored champ to meet the winner of the Bill Tate. Clem Johnson fight sometime during the month of August. A bout with either Johnson or Tate will probably result in an easy victory for Wills, but it is hoped that this will help to put him in better condition for his big chance with Dempsey. Jack Kearns was reported in several of the dailies, as saying that Wills would be the next opponent for the champion and that he would come East to talk business with the promoters in a few weeks. It is thought that this sudden change in the attitude of Kearns is due largely to his belief that Wills has gone stale by his long layoff and would, therefore, be a less dangerous opponent than the winner of the Firpo-Willard fight. Whether or not Wills gets a fight with Dempsey this summer will depend largely upon the Firpo-Willard contest on Thursday night, and the showing made by the winner. If the promoters really wish to find out which is the most worthy opponent for Dempsey they should match the winner of this bout with Wills and let the winner take on the champion. Dan Morey of North Adams, Mass. is looking after Wills, who is accompanied by Mrs. Wills and Mr. and Mrs. James McCoy. Danny Edwards Holds Harry Gordon To Draw Danny Edwards, the colored ban-townweight champion, surprised a large crowd at the Queensboto Stadium, Long Island City, by holding Harry Gordon to a draw in a twelve round bout on July 2. Several months ago Edwards was knocked out by Gordon at the Commonwealth Club, but the colored fighter had to have forgotten it. For he waded into his opponent from the start and led the fighting all of the way. In the last round both fighters stood for a time and swapped blows with the crowd cheering wildly. Because of the strong finish of Gordon the judges declared the bout a draw. Both fighters weighed 117 3-4 pounds. In the ten round semi-final, Annel Bell, 123 1-2, fought a draw with Joe Ritchie, 127. Bell was the cleverer of the two and fought a good defensive fight. The affair was a slugging match and the interest of the spectators never lagged. Tiger Flowers Defeats Tut Jackson in Atlanta Atlanta, Ga.—Tiger Flowers, the Georgia Cyclone, who recently won a decision over Panama Joe Gans, was the victor over Tut Jackson of Washington Court House, Ohio, in a twelve round no-decision fight here on July 4. Jackson was 25 pounds heavier than his opponent and although Flowers did not score a knockout, according to the Atlanta papers he outpointed his opponent in every round. Walk Miller, Flowers' manager, has announced that he will bring his fighter to New York in the near future where he hopes to meet the leading middle-weight, of the East and the country. Battling Siki Wins From Niles by K. O. in Second Round in Battle in Paris Paris, France—Battling Siki scored a knockout over Marcel Nilles, a French heavyweight, here on Sunday, July 8, in the second round of a scheduled fifteen round bout. Just before the fight the Civil Tribunal gave Edmond Laport an injunction forbidding the promoters to pay over to Siki any part of the stakes or purse from this fight. Because of this injunction, Siki was fighting merely for the glory. Nilles carried the fight to the colored man in the first round, but Siki, hen almost doubled in a crouch, assimilated everything. Nille had the judgment of at the ringside was that Nilles would surely be the winner of this one-sided battle. overconfident from his showing in the first round. Nilles came from his corner at the clang of the gong for the second round as if it were his intention to immediately finish off his opponent. The shifty Senegal man went into a clinch with Nilles and pushed him into a corner. Then as she boke away, Siki swung his left to the left of his opponent. Nilles went down, face foremost, as though he had been struck with an axe. Last May, Nilles was knocked out by the eighth round by Georges Carpenter, the light-heavyweight. He was considered by followers o. the ring to have been France's best heavyweight. Bid Norfolk to Fight Jamaica Kid Saturday The principal attraction at the Commonwealth Club on Saturday night, July 16, will be a twelve round host between Norfolk, the colored light heavyweight champion, and Jasmine Kid. The fighters are rated among the best in heavyweights in the game and the best should be a good act. ```markdown ``` Who is with her husband, Harry Willa, in his Manachuete training camp.

Frankie Jerome of The Bronx was awarded the judges' decision over Danny Edwards, the colored bantamweight champion, after fifteen rounds of hard fighting on Tuesday night, July 10, at Queensboro Stadium, Long Island City. Edwards gave Jerome the hardest fight the Bronx bantam ever had, the colored fighter winning five of the fifteen rounds and getting a draw in at least four others. The bout started off at a fast pace with Edwards taking the lead and winning the first three rounds. There was hard fighting in the fourth, with Edwards again carrying the fight to Jerome. In the latter part of this round and again in the fifth Jerome cut loose with all he possessed and put his opponent on the defensive. In the seventh both shugged willingly, taking plenty of punishment. Again in the eighth both fighters slugged willingly, with Edwards rocking Jerome with a series of blows at the opening of this round. Near the end of the round Jerome slipped and instead of taking a fair but unsportmanlike advantage of this mishap, Edwards stepped back and helped Jerome up. This brought a roar of applause from the spectators for the colored fighter. The ninth and tenth rounds were the worse for Edwards, as Jerome had opened an old cut over his left eye which seemed to give him trouble. During these two rounds, Jerome did his best to put over a knockout, but Edwards was far too clever or him and made him lose his grip. Edwards recovered quickly and gave a sterling account of himself in the twelfth and thirteenth rounds. He finished stronger than his opponent, and though the decision went against him he received as much applause at the end of the fight as did the winner. His weight was 117 pounds and Jerome was five pounds heavier. Joe Jeanette was one of the judges. AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE What are "the glimpses of the moon" moments in life? In Edith Whatrón's novel, "The glimpses of the Moon," pictured for Paramount by Allan Dwan, and which comes to the Lincoln Theatre for four days, beginning today. They are the moments when love first blossoms to find fulfillment, moments that bind lives together safe against temptation. But there are other "glimpses of the moon" moments, according to Bebe Daniels, who plays the role of Susan Branch, the heroine of the picture. "Every time you do a charitable act; every time you accomplish something worth whilef every time your thoughts are tempted with magnanimity toward your fellows, you experience what I believe to be 'glimpses of the moon' moments," explained Miss Daniels. They are the moments when you feel the cestacy of a full life and reach mental, spiritual and physical heights that lift you above the materialism of every day living. "There is something about the moon when it shines in all its glory that brings a peaceful calm to those who look on from the earth below. It is this same calm that comes to lovers in perfect accord and of which Mrs. Whittle wrote: "The meaning of the title of her novel, "The Glimpses of the Moon." We all seek such moments in our lives, and some find more of them than others."

The game was bitterly contested all the way and was only won in the tenth inning when Smith, the Black Sox third baseman hit a three base hit. The score was 5-4. In the second game the Lincoln were game the Lincoln were the victors, winning by a score of 13-11. Dave Brown took the mound for the Lincoln in the opening game and was opposed by Syke and Richardson for the Black Sox. Brown was hard in the first inning and four runs, we scored. He lightened up after this inning and allowed no more runs, until the last inning that the winning run was brought in. B. Wilson, the new right fielder for the Lincoln, was responsible for the first two scores of his team in the second inning, getting a three base hit, and again in the fourth inning he brought in a run with his batting. No further scoring was done by the Lincoln, although Joe Williams, I Pierce and Wiley batted as pinch hitters in the tenth. F. Wiley took the mound for the Lin- colns in the second game and was opposed by "Hooks" Mitchell. With the score 13-2 in the Giants' favor, Wiley was hit for seven runs in the seventh. He was replaced by Streeter, who was also knocked out. Holland finished the game after the score became 13-11 and allowed no further runs. The last game was featured by loose playing by both pides.

In the early games the Brooklyn team was in a crippled condition and their layoff has helped them. They will play more league games this month and Capt Eddie Douglass is confident that his team will become a much stronger contender. In their series with the Cubans on the Fourth, the Royals won the first game in the ninth inning by a score of 2-1. The second was a fourteen inning contest and was won by the Cubans.

Furber's representative at the first annual outing of the Eureka Political Association, colored, Joseph Wilson, president, on the Fourth of July afternoon. Bundez represented Mayor Furber because the latter is on a vacation trip through New England. Continuing the public welfare thought, Mr. Budenz said: "Public welfare means a prevention of those conditions which make the police and other public officers a necessity." Your association can well take its stand for the establishment of the proposed Public Welfare Department, which other cities already have, and which would make Rahway a happier and healthier place in which to live. "We need more play for the people—more healthy play.

The Hickory service at Mother Zion Church was attended by a large congregation in Sunday morning, July 8. The central service was very inspiring. The man rendered by the choir was of exceptional high order. It was an announcement that every Sunday would be Building Fund Day during the reconfirmation of the new church. Pledge cards were passed, and the members and kind were asked to take banks and have the money. The choir sang, "We must be a Christian in my heart." The man was preached by the pastor J. W. Brown. He announced from Hebrew 10:23-25, and Matthew 4:1. The theme was, "Why men go to church?" He explain, "The term church referred to the body of Christians constituting it rather than building in which they assemble. Man is an innumerable religious and the deepest sentiments of his christians are toward God. The duty of the minister and the church today is to men and women into a serving knowledge of the Lord and Saviour." The church was and is in which are manufactured and women of those sterling qualities are the foundation stone of an invaluable civilization. The information from the church are the power of that community. You are all women. I make my appeal, for the church, but for the good children of our immortal souls. You do not inherit more damage by staying away than you do the church. Christ it is he who to help you. I beg of you to be with your own souls and God in mind. Play the man and not the lady come to Calvary. Come to the man come to Jesus. Receive pardon and forgiveness. Come let Him, with all make you whisper their snow—give a clean heart, and a right spirit, and give forth with his people to help comfort and save the world." At 2 o'clock the Sunday-school enclosed. During July and August, the vessels are to last for one hour. The chairs for the evening year were re-used. We are all baptism and holy community were administered. There were three children and one adult baptized, four hundred and thirty-two baptized, and the sermon was preached by Rev. J. N. Allen. name were received into the ditch during the day.

Boat leaves 132nd street and North River at 9:30 sharp. The sick: H. G. Basa, 66 West 134th street; Ellsworth Johnson, Parkway and Cumberland street, Jamaica, L. I.; Sadie Rose, Bellevue Hospital. Abyssinian Baptist Church Sunday was red letter day in"Add Abrysian Church in the absence of our beloved pastor, Dr. Powell. We were graciously favored with having one of the outstanding women of our race in the person of Miss Namie H. Burroughs as a speaker for both services. The chairman of the trustee board, Nelson Dixon, presided at the services and introduced Miss Burroughs by a quotation from that famous book by Benjamin Kidd, "The Science of Power." Miss Burroughs then began to talk from the text, "The Word Made Flesh, and stirred the audience by her vivid personality, her sincere religious fervor, and her dedication to the cause of humanity. Her illustrations were unusual as well as very practical. In the evening the audience again thronged the spacious auditorium to listen to her final message, "What Men have found out about Women." The outstanding points of her final message was that women were men's eye openers and that it took women to civilize men. The audience responded to the appeal made in behalf of her school, The National Training School for Girls, Lincoln Heights, Washington, D. C., and grave her $152.25. In the afternoon Rev. H. Arthur Booker, pastor of St. Paul's Baptist Church, delivered the annual sermon to the Patience Lodge, K. of P. In Dr. Booker's unique, interesting style, he preached a great sermon. The choir of *Abyssinian Baptist Church* continues to ascend the mount of progress and a (sunday-school) ascend to be at its best in its rendition "Some day, we shall be known as we are born." The collection for the day was $1-680.53. Seventeen persons united with the church. The largest check coming from any individual outside of the church membership was one of $500 received last Sunday from Walter Trimble, president of the Bank for Savings. This sum was given in memory of Laura Pease, a member of Abyssinian, who worked in the Trimble family for fifty-one years. These years of service and friendship are memorialised in the most beautiful window on the westside of the church. Other contributions Sunday to, the Building Fund were $30 from some white Baptist ladies, through the Baptist City Mission Society; $10 from Rosa L. LeGarr & Company, undertakers, West 132nd street; Watt Terry, the well known real estate operator; $50. This makes the second contribution Mr. Terry has given to the Building Fund. Dr. S. W. Smith will preach at both services next Sunday. St. Mark's M. E. Church. Sunday, July 8 was a super-eventful day in St. Mark's M. E. Church. The services throughout the day were attended by record congregations. Owing to the facts that during the months of July and August, the Sunday evening services will be held in the tent erected at 137th and 138th streets, St. Nicholas and Edgecombe avenues, holy communion was administered by the pastor, Dr. Robinson at the morning service instead of the evening as heretofore. Communion was administered to five hundred and fifty-one communicants. Seven probationers received the right hand of fellowship and were admitted into full membership of the church. Two adults and four children were baptized by the pastor. Rev. John H. Reed, who for eighteen years was district superintendent of the M. E. Church in Monrovia, Liberia, assisted Dr. Robinson in the communion service. Memorial flowers were donated by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Richardson in memory of Mrs. Richardson's mother. Services in the tent were conducted by Rev. R. A. Bolden at 11 o'clock. Rev. Bolden preached a very sermon in a good sixtieth congregation. Tent services were conducted at 3 o'clock in the afternoon by the pastor, who delivered a powerful and soul-stirring sermon. At the evening service Dr. A. C. Garner, pastor of Grace Congregational Church, was the speaker. Dr. Garner thrilled his hearers in the course of his eloquent discourse. His text was 2nd Samuel 19:32. Theme: "How long have I to love?" The Sunday-school was well attended and the collection good. The services of the Egworth League were held in the text and a good pro- gram reordered. Mrs. Carrie Griffin in charge. The weekly services during the past week which were held in the tent were hugely attended. The principal feature of these services was the magnificent amount in which the members have prepared to appease to pay their contributions for the provision of the new tent. Franchising by prominent proprietors and good playing will be admirable of the weekly services in the tent. Dr. Robinson is to be highly commended for the excellent results of the meetings thus far, and present indications point to the brilliant success of his efforts to make the services in the tent a medium through which scores may be led to Christ. The Vestimenta Bible Chap. which was instituted by Dr. Robinson, was served last. Thereafter very suspiciously and high fidelity to a very large successful venture. The class in held in the same expiry springing from 9 to 12 o'clock. Dinner was served to the church house by the Floral Circle, Mrs. Molina Spokeski, altar. Rope W. Thornton, not being well, having undergone a slight operation, the sermon was preached by Rev. Morland of Troy, Ala. It was short and spicy but made a lasting impression on the audience. After th sermon the pastor, Dr. Thornton, installed the senior and junior Stewardess Boards, Laura Moore, president senior, and Julia Brooks, president junior. At the evening service Rev. Gordon, a local, preached an inspiring sermon from 3rd chapter Paul's letter to Philippians, using as his subject Christian Citizenship. It was full of logic and well delivered. During the day, 14 united with the church and one infant was baptised. The Allen C. E. League, under direction of the president E. G. Hebbons, has become popular and it is a treat to hear young folks discuss the various topics. First Emmanuel Church Services at the church on Sunday morning were impressive and interesting. Pastor Bolden preached from the text, "For the love of money is the root of evil." 1. Timothy 6, and a part of the 10th verse. He said: "The great, Apostle Paul in writing this letter to his son in the gospel, Timothy, while cautioning and instructing him in teaching, the people give him points of personal conduct which may be made great use of today. Money, a medium of exchange, seems to have been a very important factor then as it is now. And the love of it Paul declared and proved, was the root of all evil. When we have given a close-study of the causes of the recent world war it is clearly seen that the love of money was the all important factor. The joyfulness among the dominant nations over the control of enormous wealth, precipitated an international conspiracy. The results of this conspiracy sweet millions of men into the love of death and made millions of widows and orphans, annihilated towns and villages, destroyed fertile fields, devastated and laid in ruins industrial centers, and has left the world in a state of anarchy with poverty and disease gnawing at the vitals of humanity. Our government, with its financiers, saw an opportunity to get control and corner the gold of the world. Therefore the United States of America, the richest, freest and most prosperous country in the world, though democratic and liberal, has the contempt of many nations because of her love for gold. The evils that are in Haiti, and the evils that are manifested in our nation as regards the question of race or color as it is a question of ruling white people for money the very poor will get it. For to their mind it is the one great necessity and it seems to be the solvent for their little difficulties. To the middle class and leaders of various cultured industries, groups and systems, money means to them unlimited pleasure and great power. While the colored people are also affected with this feeling, the love of money, they are also the victim of it throughout the world, as well as America. The Federal Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., is a glaring example. In this instance the United States Government has a splendid opportunity to show to the inconsistent South of our country that the government loves principle better than it loves gold for the love of gold is the root of all evil, but a godly principle is the root of love. True love, divine love, such as manifest the fruits of righteousness, godliness, justice, faith in God, the ultimate good, this kind of love makes the man love God with all his heart, soul, mind and strength, and his neighbor as himself." The Sunday-school opened at the usual hour. Opening exercises were conducted by Miss D. Small. The lesson study was interesting. The Literary Society opened at 4:30. Mrs. Mattea Shaw had charge of the program. It was a piano solo by F. Woodward; recitation, Miss Williams; piano solo. Miss A. Freeman. At 7:30, Miss Mamie Anderson had charge of the prayer and praise service. The subject for discussion was "Charity" or "Love." The Rev. Ralph Leon Miller of Bridgeport, preached at the evening services. His text was "I shall not be greatly moved, and I shall not be moved." Psalms 62, a part of the 2nd and 6th verses. The dinner was served during the day by the members of the L. L. & H. Society and $9 was turned into the church. St. James Preabyterian. St. James Presbyterian Church, 59-61 West 132th street near Leopotra avenue, was crowded last Sunday with eaker worshippers. Dr. Hyder occupied his pulpit at both services. The theme under consideration at the morning service was, "What will be the net result of the life colored Harlem is now living?" Dr. Hyder said, among other things, that we must not mistake gwaw gaw and sham for progress, whether in the financial, intellectual or spiritual realm; that it jakes substance and not shadows to build a civilization. The white man writes' much of the history of black folk, continued the speaker, gets his impressions from the general conduct and character of the thoughtless and boisterous type of Negroes, whom he observes on the streetcorner. This is the class of Negroes, said Dr. Hyder, that the self-respecting colored element in Harlem must reach with the program which Moses worked out for the Jews, via: that, a recognition of God and the Sabbath day are the first step in the path that leads to worthwhile citizenship, as well as to the accumulation of property and the other accompaniments of a real lasting civilisation. To acquire a home, the minister said, was one of the ways to give a man the impression of his real value in the social life of the community he which he lives. Dr. Hyder deployed the vast sums of money young colored people are wasting daily in Harlem, instead of pooling it in ground real estate projects around Greater New York where it would yield a return that would in time raise them to tax payers instead of rent payers.
