W. GREENE IS REELECTED. SUPREME CHANCELLOR WHEN RULES ARE SUSPENDED AND VOTE IS EXPRESSED BY ACCLAMATION All Officers Are Reelected, Only Change Being Placing Grand Chancellor Lee Crawford of New York on Temple Commission—Calanthians Reelect Officers. The twenty-second biennial session of the Supreme Lodge and Supreme Court and Uniform Rank Encampment. Knights of Pythias closed here on August 25 after one of the most harmonious sessions in the history of the order. All the Supreme Lodge officers were present with the exception of John H. Young of Pine Bluff, Ark., who was prevented from attending because of illness. In recognition of his twenty-five years service as supreme master of exchequer, the rules were suspended and he was unanimously reelected. The other Supreme Lodge officers were also elected, the only change being on the Temple Commission. New York's Reception To K. of P. Not So Warm As Other Cities A feature of the session was the return of the Virginia Grund Lodge to the Order after an absence of eleven years and the splendid street parade of the Uniform Rank, Supreme Lodge offices and Court of Calanthe on Friday morning. The parade was one of the largest ever staged by a colored organisation in New York and was viewed by thousands in its march from Harlem down Seventh and Fifth avenues to 59th street. Colored Police Rebarves Led Led by a detachment of mounted police and a company of colored Police Reserves, the parade started from 140th street and seventh avenue at eleventh clock. Following the police were Jorge General R. R. Jackson of Chicago and staff, also mounted. The first division was led by the First Brigade Band, K. of P. of Chicago, A. T. Seward, handmaster, and was composed largely of men from Chicago and Illinois. The second division, under command of Col. Cleonard, of Columbus, Ohio, was composed of members of the Order from the Buckeye State. General T. B. Ginn commanded the third division of Knights from Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. The fourth division was two Indians and was commanded by Under General W. J. L. Reid. The fifth division was composed of companies from Georgia, New Jersey, District of Columbia and Kansas and was under the command of Col. James Barker of New Jersey. The sixth and seventh divisions were composed of New Yorkers under command of General Roland R. Johnson and Col. A. J. Lewis. The eighth division under command of Col. J. Howard was composed of the Supreme Lodge officers. The ninth division, under Col. W. Tibbitt, was the Grand Lodge of New Jersey and Supreme Court of Calabria. The tenth and last division, under command of Col. J. W. T. Richardson, was composed of floats and art. Social cities put up a strong contest for the next session in 1925, but the Louisville delegates were successful and the next session will be held in Louisville, K. Supreme Court of Calanthe The sessions of the Supreme Court of Galante were also successful and hardened, and with one exception, all their officers were reected. The officers directed by the Court of Calante art墨 G. Tidrington, Evansville,驻 supreme worthy counsellor; Mrs. M. S. Grant, Darien, Ga. supreme worthy inspector; Mrs. M. Jonesberg, Fort Smith Ark. S. W. O.; Mrs. M. J. Harland, Charleston, W. Va., S. W. R.D.; Mrs. A. Bunny, Mendy, Henderson, K. S. W. Rec. D.; Mrs. Bessie R. Johnson, Corona, L. L, S. W. S. D.; New York hospitality did not meet the approval of the majority of the bar of town delegates to the Supreme Lodge Knights of Pythias, which closed here on Friday, August 24. Many delegates, especially from the Synod, declared that they had to pay for all of the entertainment accorded them while here and in most cases at an exorbitant price. The dissatisfaction over the treatment accorded the Uniform Ranks of the Pythians and Court of Calanthe came to a head at the reception and dance at the 22nd Regiment Armory on Thursday night, August 23, when an attempt was made to charge a dollar admission to those of the Uniform Ranks and Court of Calanthe who attended the reception. This they rejected to pay as they declared it was customary to admit all members in uniform free at such receptions. Some of the men declared that unless they were admitted free they would not participate in the parade on Friday but would pack up and leave town immediately. They put their grievance up to Major R. K. Jackson who had charge of the uniform tanks, who demanded that he be admitted. The committee FRANKLIN H. SARGENT FRIEND TO NEGRO ART ENDS LIFE IN HOTEL Plattsburgh, N. Y.—Franklin H. Sargent, head of the Sargent Dramatic Art School, Carnegie Hall, New York City, committed suicide here in the Hotel Witherell on Tuesday, August 28, dying in the Champlain Valley Hospital fifteen minutes after his body was found. Mr. Sargent had come to Plattsburg from his summer home at Saranac Lake, reaching here about 4 p.m. He made a will just afterwards, in Surrogate Boie's office, making his housekeeper, Sadie Walker, the beneficiary. For forty years Mr. Sargent has been a prominent figure in the study of dramatic art in America. Some of the most famous personages on the stage were trained under his direction. He exhibited great interest in development of Negro dramatic art and two years ago started a dramatic school in White Rose Home in Harlem. He worked with colorful artists, and to this end directed a number of playlets at Carnegie Lyceum, the parts being taken by Negro performers. It was indicative of his unselfishness that no renumecation was asked for or accepted by Director Sargent, both he and his staff of coworkers giving their services without charge of any sort. Mrs. Mary Ann Quick, One of North Carolina's Oldest Citizens, Dead (Special to THE NEW York Age). Wilmington, N. C.-Mrs. Mary. Ann Quick, for many years a resident of Laurinburg, N. C., died in her ninety- first year here on August 25, after an illness of several months. Mrs. Quick was well known throughout the state and was the mother of thirteen children, only one of whom survive her- Iverson R. Quick of New York City. Grandfather and Father Within 10-Day Period (Based on the Baltimore, Md.-Harry Wilson, president of the Benefit Insurance company, is receiving congratulations becoming both a grandfather and father within ten days.

Lee Crawford had not arrived, but as several hundred of the uniform men had gathered outside, the main entrance of the armory and making an unusual amount of noise, it was finally agreed to give them tickets, which were charged up to the local lodge. But before this decision had been reached, many of the out-of-town guests took occasion to criticise the local entertainment committee roundly for their negligence: in making preparations for the housing and entertainment committee of the visitors. They declared that no place had been provided for them to sleep when they arrived, the camp in the Bronx having been secured after the delegates had reached the city. It is also alleged the local committee profited on the visitors in hauling their luggage, charging them 85 cents 'or each bag and $1.50 for a trunk, when the express companies which hauled the baggage actually received a much smaller amount. Many of the delegates left on Saturday feeling that New York was a fine place for the rich, but a bad place for a person who was a passenger without much money. NEW YORK, N. Y. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1923. First Colored Woman Invited Two Years in Succession to Address Great Northfield Conference-Given Great Ovation at Close of Address. News Briefs of General Interest Mayor John F. Hylan, who was taken ill with influenza at Saratoga Springs on Monday, August 27, is improving. CORRECTION—The news story in last week's Age concerning the saving of the lives of J. L. Webb and daughter by Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, should have been dated at HOT SPRINGS, ARK., where the incident occurred. The date line was omitted. New York police have a mystery on their hands in the form of a colored man, "John Doe," who speaks a language no one in all of New York has been able to understand, although interpreters familiar with hundreds of languages and dialects have been called into service. He speaks fluently whatever language it is he knows but it is an unknown language so far as New York's linguistic sharps are concerned. Several colored physicians in Washington, D. C., appointed by Director Hines of the Veterans' Bureau to fill positions at the Veterans' Hospital, Tuskegee, Ala., are reported to have declined to report for duty while Col. R. H. Stanley remains as head of the institution. In the presence of his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. John W. Randolph of Mississippi, Attorney Oliver Randolph of Newark, N. J., was sworn in on Monday, August 20, as Special Assistant United States Attorney. Mr. Randolph was a member of the New Jersey State Assembly, the second colored man to be elected, and he automatically retires from that office. Federal Judge Runyon administered the oath of office. Washington, D. C.—White hoodlums attempted to prevent Dean D. W. Woodd of Howard University and family from occupying the new home recently purchased by them at 127 W street, northwest. The house was stoned and all the window glasses were broken out. This did not stop Mr. Woodd, who has been given police protection and is now occupying the house. Henry J. Stanfield of Montclair, a lawyer, with offices in Newark, has been designated as a candidate for the State Assembly to succeed Assemblyman Oliver Randolph, who retired to become a Special Assistant Federal Attorney. The selection was made by colored Republicans at Republican headquarters, Halsey and Academy streets, Newark, and Dr. W. H. Washington heads a committee to inform the Republican County Committee of Attorney Stanfield's selection. Work has started on the 100,000 dormitory for boys at Tuskegee Institute. Enrichment is being made and the laying of the foundation is to begin this week. It is hoped to have the building ready for use during the incoming year. Dr. Motus, principal, states that the Register's records show several hundred more applicants on June 10 than had been recorded a year previous. The applications are continuing to come in increasing numbers. The new Teacher-Training Course, equivalent to a junior college course, is thought to be responsible for much of the increase. Many are from northern states and foreign countries. UNUSUAL OVATION BY HEARERS AT CLOSE OF ELOQUENT ADDRESS Has Done Much in Congregational Gathering To Break Down Race Prejudice. (Special to The New York Add). East Northfield, Mass. — Charlotte Hawkins Brown, founder and principal of the Palmer Memorial Institute, Sedalia, N. C., was one of the principal speakers at the recent East Northfield Home Mission Conference, as she was also at the 1922 Conference. She is the first colored woman to be paid the honor of being invited for two years in succession to address this body which represents the Congregational churches of New England. It is impossible to estimate the influence exerted by Mrs. Brown among the thousands of white women and girls throughout this section, and it was mainly because of her influence that the color line was broken down in the great Nothfield schools. A brilliant speaker, a woman of magnetic personality, of great faith and power, Mrs. Brown ranks as one of the finest speakers of the country, and she is fast becoming the outstanding woman of the Congregational church, regardless of race. No individual, since Booker T. Washington, has stirred the interest of New (Continued on Seventh Page) News Briefs of Mavor John F.

Blake, formerly a New York City district nurse, sailed Thursday for Paris, French emmote to the French Congo as a secondary under auxices of the Mid-African Mission Council, with her salary being paid by the Abyssinian Baptist Church, West 130th street, the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, pastor. Objection on part of the French government have buttressed kept colored American missionaries out of the French Congo, but these have been overcome in this case and Mrs. Blake is the first from America to be admitted. She will send more than 1000 to study in America. Mrs. Blake shows a distinct marriages in accepting this work, as her salary as a district nurse was much larger than the salary she will be paid as a missionary. She will be known as the "Abyssinian Worther in Africa." BATTLING SIKI SAID TO BE ON HIS WAY TO AMERICA, WANTS BOUT Cherbourg, France—Battling, Siki former light heavyweight champion of the world, sailed on the Bergenaria for New York on a Saturday, August 25. Before sailing he declared that he would challenge the winner of the Piropo-Dempsey bout, or, failing to get a match there, would challenge Harry. Wills. Siki declared that the reports of the good times he had in the Montmartre in Paris were exaggerated, but from now on he would stick to hard work and box daily. 7th Ave. Homes Menaced By Opening Of "Hootch" Joints Croton Point Beach Not To Be Developed As Race Coloony; Land To Be Park Project Fostered by R. W. Justice Fails When Westchester Co. Park Commission Steps In and Buys Prospective Site—Justice Had No Option, Say Owners. BLAZING KLAN, KROSS HAD NO TERRORS FOR KNIGHTS OF PYTHAS Ku Klux Ignited 7-Ft. Cross at Point Opposite Camp But Men Paid No Heed To It. While several thousand members of the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, in attendance here in New York City upon the 22nd biennial session of the Supreme Lodge, were in their encampment on Baychester avenue, near 222nd street. The Bromx, last week, members of the Ku Klux Klan are alleged to have erected and set fire to a klan cross, seven feet high, at a point just opposite the camp. The cross was set afire about eleven o'clock at night, but most of the men were asleep. Those who were awake were in no wise disturbed or excited, but looked upon the blazing exhibition with derision. Two police officers, on duty near the camp, extinguished the cross and patrol- men from the Wakefield station made a search of the surrounding country for some trace of the persons who had kind- ed the cross, but without success. The only comment made by members of the order who were in the camp, when told of the fiery display, was that the perpetrators had sense enough to come under cover of night's mantling darkness and even then they made their demonstration at a safe distance. There was no evidence of fear or timidity but a rather stern curiosity with regard to what would have happened to the "brave" knights of the invisible empire if they had become visible. DR. HENRY O. HARDING is the regular designated candidate for ALDERMAN by the Republican Organization of the 21st Assembly District and is entitled to the full support of all enrolled Republicans on Primaary Day, September 18, 1923. Croton Point Bea To Be Develop Colony; Land Project Fostered by R. W. Jus Co. Park Commission Stepa Site—Justice Had No The plan to develop Croton Point as a colony for colored Harlemites, which has been promoted for three months by Robert W. Justice of 447 Lenox avenue, fell through on Monday, August 27, when it became known that Inglis M. Uppercu, head of the Uppercu Cadillac Company, and owner of the property, had sold it to the Westchester County Park Commission for $360,000. The property contains three hundred acres and is located directly opposite Ossining, N. Y. According to Mr. Justice's statement, he had secured an opinion on the property for which he was to pay $500,000 and as soon as 300 lots had been sold his company would take over the property and begin improvements immediately. It appears that Mr. Justice had no written agreement with the owners of the property and any oral option he may have had was disregarded by the company, although he had been advertising the sale of lots for two months. In a statement to the New York World, Mr. Justice declared that the anti-Negro sentiment in Peekskill and other nearby towns forced the sale of the property to others. He also stated that his company had raised $300,000 in subscriptions and was ready to pay that much in cash on the property, with the balance of $200,000 to remain on a first mortgage, but did not state why no cash was paid to bind the option. About the middle of July, Mr. Justice requested the editor of The New York Age to send a representative of this paper to Croton to inspect the property. In its issue of July 28, The Aq. pointed out that the property was not at all as Mr. Justice had represented in paid advertising and in statements to prospective buyers. It was unimproved and the opinion was expressed that it would be some years before it could be built up into a paying beach colony. Mr. Justice later denied to a reporter of The Age that any part of the $300,000 subscribed had been collected. He stated that the money was to have been paid on September 12. He says that he personally bore the expense of the advertising campaign conducted in connection with the sale of the property as lots to colored people and no 'one else had lost money in connection with the project. It can be definitely stated, however, that nowhere near $300,000 would have been paid by people of the community Survey of Hootch Situation Reveals Steady Increase In Harlem of Camouflaged Bars Lenox Avenue Is Liquor-Selling Delicatessens, Cigar Stores, Malt Park Drink and Lunch Places, With Bootlegging Drug Stores Also. SINISTER DEVELOPMENT IS INVASION OF SEVENTH AVENUE, HERETOFORE THE MOST DESIRABLE RESIDENTIAL HARLEM STREET Notwithstanding Police Commissioner Enright's Order That Police Inspectors and Captains Must Close Bootlegging Joints, New Ones Open Almost Every Day. If figures tell the truth, the recent order issued by Police Commissioner Enright requiring police inspectors and captains to close up all places in the city where alcoholic drink is sold has had no deterrent influence upon the bootlegging gentry, at least so far as Harlem is concerned. A survey just completed shows a larger number of hootch-selling places in operation than ever before, and others are in process of preparing to open their doors. The survey made no note of a number of places conducted openly, and above-board as saloons, approximating in appearance the old-fashioned barroom, but was confined entirely to the places which camouflage their real purpose of selling booth under the guise of delicatessens, cigar stores, malt parlors, drug stores, etc. A casual stroll up and down Lenox avenue will reveal to the most cursory inspection by a person initiated into the signs that indicate booze-selling and drinking that the traffic is unrestricted At 419, 434 and 448 drug stores are perhaps a bit more careful than some 24 Places on Lenox Ave. In the Lenox avenue area from 129th to 14thth streets, east and west sides, there are 24 honehill-dispensing joints which present a much more innocent front to the world than is disclosed by a more intimate acquaintance with the real business carried on inside. A catalogue of information concerning these places would tell that a malt and soft drink emporium, recently opened at 300 Lenox avenue, between 129th and 130th streets, is really a similar enterprise to the one at 540 Lenox avenue, between 137th and 138th streets, and that high places are run by the same firm, apparently, as the signs are identical "Al & Sam" being the legend which is prominently displayed. And it is information posessed by practically all of Harlem, women as well as men, that "hard liker" of any type called for can be obtained in any quantity desired.

SUGGESTIONS TO CARELESS BUSINESS PEOPLE Why not make your place of business attractive? Why not be polite to patrons? Why not tidy yourself up? Why not be prompt in waiting on customers? Why not begin to make your place the most attractive and inviting in Harlem? The Business Man or Woman cannot expect business to grow if Impolite, Untidy or Careless in handling goods. Dr. T. H. Amos, Jr., Named As Member of the Staff For Veterans' Hospital (Special to THE NEW YORK ACE). North Emporia, Va.-Dr. T: H. Hamos, jr., who has gained considerable reputation as a psychiatrist, has received an appointment to the staff of the Negro Hospital for Disabled Negro War Veterans at Tuskegee. 'Ala. Dr. Amos will probably accept and report at once for duty. Gainey Flew t oNew York In Plane From Capital John D. Gainey, the only colored man holding a position as chief clerk in the Railway. Mail Service, stationed at Washington, D. C., flew from that city to New York City on Wednesday, August 21, in one of the mail airplanes now in service between the two cities. Mr. Gainey's trip was official, and was for the purpose of inspecting a number of mail planes that are to be put into the aerial mail service. as many of them who viewed the property were also unimpressed with its possibilities, and as no formal agreement for the sale of lots or subscriptions had been gotten out, many of them did not give Mr. Justice their affair. A casual stroll up and down Lenon avenue will reveal to the most cursory inspection by a person initiated into the signs that indicate booze-selling and drinking that the traffic is unrestricted. At 419, 434 and 448 drug stores are perhaps a bit more careful than some of the bold and brazen delicatessen or cigar store joints, but just, the same the "iwse" clientele, find no difficulty in satisfying whatever alcoholic craving is possessed. Mote Hootch Then Drugs A pharmacy at 504 is alleged to be more concerned with the trade which calls for one or more bottles of spiritis frumenti, of capacities ranging from eight to thirty-two ounces, than to the filling of prescription scalling for a more extensive compounding of respiraal drugs. And the further elaboration is made that so obliquity is the most important that the prescription regulation is by the law is entirely abrogated and the red tape of legal conformity is thrown away entirely. The number of delicatessens and cigar stores which mask the selling of booths is constantly increasing. A current rumor through Harlem is that a group of brothers, all of one family, practically control the Lenox avenue trade. The most conspicuous members of this family are Hyman and Loui, who are ostensibly conducting eight of the 24 places—Hyman's name is on four cigar stores while Loui's delicatessens also number four. Hyman's are at 452, 511, 523 (a new venture) and 582, while Loui's, in close proximity are at 456, 488, 555 and 653 Malt parlors, according to the signs displayed, but really places where it is alleged the most pungent and powerful of the newly made denatured alcoholic products are dispensed, are located at 433, 450 and 507, while other delicatessen and lime plants which bear no distinguishing indications of ownership are at 465, 476, 543, 565 and 664. Have Invaded 7th Avenue A sinister development in connection with the selling of hoochin in Harlem is the invasion of Seventh avenue and the consequent impairment of that throughfare's desirability as a residential locality. People of the community are viewing with dissatisfaction the opening on Seventh avenue of a number of these hoochin joints, most of which are being operated by the same Italian groups. Where formerly there were none of these resorts there are now at least nine in active operation, with two more nearly ready to start business. This does not include the saloons which are holdovers from pre-production days. The Seventh avenue operations are conducted mostly in the guise of lunch rooms or cafes, only one of them giving a pseudo air of openness by calling itself a "Beverage and Smoke House." This latter place, by the way, recently opened, is occupying half of the store at 2365 which was formerly devoted to the music business. The latter is now confining its activities to one-half of the former space, and this is shared by a new floral venture. Those who stand for decency and protection for the home in Harlem are protesting this invasion of a desirable residential section by a business that immediately lowers the morale and pollutes the atmosphere of any neighborhood. Aside from the degrading character of the business is the physical and moral hurt to which the individual patron is subjected. Physicians and hospital officials declare the disastrous effect of the bootleggers' honeypot being consumed in Harlem is worse than anything encountered in all their previous experiences. Alleged hootch-selling joints operating on Seventh avenue, most of which are of recent installation, are at 2219, a drug store; 2280, a lunch room; 2321, a lunch room; 2365, beverage and smoket shop; and 2431, a restaurant and cafe. Two other places are in process of preparing to open, one at 131st street and Seventh avenue, northeast corner, and the other at 136th street, northwest corner. The Age Campaign Approved The campaign of The Art against the bootch bootlapping joints continues to meet the appreciation and win the documentation of the better element of the community. Among the communications --- PAGE TWO lately received some contain direct charges with relation to a cabinet recently opened which, if containing any elements of credibility, reveal a condition more reprehensible in many respects, than most of the developments following the imharmed sale of villa boothing booth in Harlem. These charges relate to the alleged meaning of "finding society women" and "the sweethearts" in this particular cabbage one of the letters naming every woman in Harlem. Hardy are said to have attended a "reception" at this resort, "mixing with sporting women and gamblers." The writers unite in urging that the fight for abolition of these hell-boles be kept up until they are finally done away with. One long and interesting letter, signed "A Reader," is prefaced by the statement that "The writer is a white person engaged in social work among the colored people. My sympathies are entirely with these good people in their uphill struggle for recognition, and in whatever way I can I am always ready, willing and eager to further and help them realize their ambitions. The Age is fearless in championing the cause to which we are pledged and I am sure its influence for good is far reaching. I can frankly say that my interest in the colored (race) has been deepened and even famed into enthusiasm by the perusal of the did this, which you have honor be editor. It was with much gratitude that I noticed how consistently your paper has fought against the detrimental influences that have arise among the colored people of Harlem, viz: pool rooms, booth parlor, fake delicatessens and in this week's issue, against the fake spiritualists, quacks, root and herb doctors, etc. The campaign is splendid. Keep at it." Send Message to Age Editor In connection with the same cabaret to which the above references are made, a resort recently licensed, some of the visitors to the place report that on entering they were accosted by one of the half-down brothers who seem to be connected with its operation, most of whom are well-known; figures in the Lenox avenue bootlegging delicatessen and cigar shops; and their first visit to the place, and if they were friends of "Fred R. Moose of The Age. When told that the patron was an acquaintance or friend of the editor, the house man made a request that the patron inform the newspaper man that the place was run decently and in order; that it was the intention of the management to keep it on a high plane; that patrons were not permitted to toss money out on the floor for the women dancers; that the 50 cents cover charge exacted of every person entering the place was not for the management but was scrupulously divided among the patrons; that a number of other claims were made, including that of uslift work among Negroes by the owner, which would indicate that the place in question was not really a New York institution of pleasure and entertainment but was actually an adjunct to some celestial habitation. Race Leaders Endorse Resorts It is alleged in this connection that certain race leaders in Harlem have permitted themselves to be used in endorsement of the operation of this and other resorts, accepting in return blandishments which are said to have been of a subjugant quality. Notwithstanding assurances upon which these leaders appear to base their approval, it is said by those who frequent the resorts that few of the promises of the league and mortal service without regard to the Volstead Act, it is alleged, the statement being made, that at times whiskey flows like water, only it is usually served either in a tea cup or a ginger ale glass. The openness with which these boot-legging delicatessens, cigar stores and other hooth迪 dispensing joints take in their stocks of wet goods is significant to the onlooker. There is no apparent fear of enforcement officers, either city, state or federal. The ordinary procedure is for an automobile, usually a high-powered, expensive car, carrying three or four men passengers, to drive up to the curb in front of the delicatessens store, all plow or other hooth-belling place; the men get out and stroll leisurely into the store, darting keen, though veiled, glances in all directions. Inside the store, a rapid survey is made and once assured that the coast is clear the men jump to their tasks. Lenox Avenue Families Protest Patrons or customers in the place are cautioned to stand one side and leave a clear road for action. The men rush back to the auto and from its inside, begin abstracting kegs, demijohns, jugs and bags containing bottles, all of which were filled with various kinds of hootch dispensed at that particular place, with raw day-old m whiskey and synthetic gin usually predominating. That the transfer of this stock is done by the bootlegger any hour suitable to be held in convenience, day or night, indicates that there is some controlling influence which carries the enforcement officials to some other neighborhood at that particular time. Hundreds of estimable Negro families residing on Lenox avenue are subjected to humiliating experiences because of the influx of undesirables following in the wake of the bootlegger. Restricted housing facilities, coupled with economic necessity, prevent removal to a more desirable neighborhood, and these people are often offered protection from the drunken and criminal element which habitually frequent and hang around the hootch joints on Lenox avenue. Outward appearances indicate that the place at northeast corner of 131st street and Seventh avenue in Lafayette Theatre building, now being prepared for an early opening, will be one of the most elaborately appointed resorts in Harlem. Just what will be the inside decorations cannot yet be discovered as the doors and windows are covered. But the coverings are of apparent costliness. Heavy silk and lace curtains, of a rich, darten hue, are hung over each door and window, and at the top of these curtains what seems to be lustrous satin portieries of a darker shade of the same color completes the making of the inside from the curious glances of prosperity. Each curtain bears the device, "Scalable Berg Cafe," at the top, with a monogram, "S. & B." in the center. A bottom line, completing the rectangle, is worded, "Stenka had Dhope." But before the view was cut off, it had been seen that at least a part of the furnishings included a bar extending down the side of the place, with the oldtime brass rail and large, handsome mirrors adorning the back with just as in the old days before the Volunteer Act became a Federal law. (special to The New York Age) Atlanta, Ga.—At the recent annual meeting of the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation, the woman's section of the Commission brought in a vigorous paper on lynching and asked the Commission to authorize that the matter be brought to the attention of the various women's organizations of the South and that they all be asked to cooperate in a sustained and systematic effort to eradicate this great evil. The Commissiaion, which has been constantly at work toward the same end, gladly gave its approval to the plan by unanimously adopting the resolutions presented by the women, which were Lynching, at one time practiced only as punishment by the mob for the violation of womanhood, is now resorted to even for robbery petty crime, or no crime. At present the responsibility for the punishment of Lynchers and the abolition of the evil reacts solely in the several, State Governments. We, the Woman's Committee of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, are overwhelmed with a deep sense of humiliation that this hideous crime is heralded abroad as the only means available to men for the protection of womanhood. We likewise suffer because of the seeming impotence of our state governments in the protection of human life and in their inability to find and punish Lynchers and members of mobs who, in the absence of sufficient law enforcement by the regularly constituted authorities presume to assume the role of Judge and Jury-thus themselves becoming the greatest of law violators therefore 1. That we deplore the failure of State Governments to handle this, the most conspicuous enemy to justice and righteousness, and the most disgust violation of the Constitution of our great nation. 2. That we definitely set ourselves to the task of creating such sentiment as is possible to us in each State of our territory to the end that not only sufficient laws shall be enacted to enable the trusted officers of the law to discharge their full duty but to secure the enforcement of the laws now in existence. 3. That the Director of Woman's Work of the Commission, Mrs. Luke Johnson, Palmer Building, Atlanta, Ga, be and is hereby instructed to secure the presentation of this resolution to all our cooperating organizations and State Committees, and further to put into effect such plans as are necessary to secure a sustained effort on the part of our women to the accomplishment of these ends.

Professor Moore reported that of all the students in the class, which numbered 120, he regarded Mr. Stearns as his best friend, reporting that this friendship has never waned, but rather has it increased, he stated, as his classmate has always manifested a deep personal interest in the welfare and success of Professor Moore in his work, that of advancing the Negro race. Although Professor-Moore received his educational training in New England, he is a native of North Carolina having been born in Wilmington.

Washington, he was associated with that distinguished Negro leader in promoting one of his extension endeavors for the benefit of the Negro race; viz. the National Negro, Business League, of which Dr. Washington was founder and president. He afterwards became state inspector of Negro rural schools and the state agent of Julilla Rosenwald, the Chicago philologist, for building Negro school houses in the rural districts for Negro children. He resigned this position in 1920, after holding it five years, and he is now engaged in endeavoring to establish a Negro hospital here. Philadelphia, Pa.—Governor Pinchot has named as a trustee of the Eastern Penitentiary Ernest T. Atwell who was formerly business agent of Tuskegee Institute, and a member of the late Booker T. Washington's staff. This is an indication of the policy of the Governor to humaneize the penal institutions of the State as Mr. Atwell is considered to be an expert in this service. He was one of Secretary Moore's assistants in the Food Administration during the war, and was later made director of the cofounded work in the Community Service, a position he has held until he was appointed by Governor Pinchot.

Inter-Bacial Commission in Asheville, N. C., Session, Arraigns Tuskegee Outbreak. (special correspondence) Asheville, N. C. - Condemnation of recent-threats against Tukegee Institute and the appointment of a committee to look further into that situation, reports of a wide range of activities in the interest of better conditions and better race relations, the adoption of vigorous resolutions against lynching and a pledge to keep up the fight until this great evil is eradicated, and the addition of a number of leading colored men and women to its membership were, among the most important features of the annual meeting of the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation, which was held in Asheville, N. C., July 31-August 2. A significant feature of the meeting was the presence of official representatives of the organized women of the Methodist, Baptist, Episcopalian, Presbyterian, Christian and Congregational churches. A leading feature of the work of the woman's section is a determined and unremitting warfare on lynching. Representing the colored group were Bishops R. E. Jones and George C. Clements, President John Hope, Robert E. Clay, J. T. Hodges, Dr. James Bond, Dr. H. T. S. Johnson, W. W. Hadnott Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, Mrs. John Hope, Mrs. H. L. McCrory, Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown and Mrs. Marion Wilkerson. The seven last named were added to the membership of the Commission, as were also Bishops J. S. Flipper and K. G. Finley, H. E. Perry and C. C. Spaulding. Other colored members of the Commission are R. R. Moton, Isaac Fisher, R. L. Smith and John M. Gandy. Relative to the Ku Klux Klan parade at Tuskegee, the Commission said: "We deplore and condemn such actions on the part of men masked or unmasked, in this day and time, wherever they may occur and whatever may be the cause, as being an offense against Christian civilization and as subversive of every principle of democracy upon which our government and the peace and happiness of all of our people, whether white or black, depends." A special commission was appointed to look fully into the Tuskegee situation, with power to take such steps as might seem favorable to a peaceable and righteous adjustment of the uqestions at issue. The following were named on this commission: Dr. M. Ashby Jones Dr. W. "D. Weatherford, Judge John D. Aather, Mrs. T. W. Bickett, Bishop R. E. Jones, Dr. John Hope and Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune.

DEPUTY CANDACE TO TAKE ACTION ON THE AMERICANS IN PARIS (Special to The New York Age) Paris, France—The color line issue between Americans touring in France and French colonialists was brought to a head by Deputy Gratien Candson from Guadeloupe. He not only warns Premier Poincare that he will interpellate the government on recent Monmatre incidences, but publishes a savagely-worded column from front page article in L'Homme Libre a stale old republican journal, formerly Chicoutenois, wherein he flays Americans generally for their racial attitude, and particularly for their treatment of the Republic of Haiti. Candace's standing in the Chamber is high-better than that of many of the white Deputies. He belongs to several important committees, including the colonial, and his affiliation with the left bloc is likely to make his interpolation more difficult. Deputies who is fully aware of American sentiment on the color problem. Bitteroot Criticism on Haiti Perhaps the warmest passage in the article is: "Americans in the middle of the war in 1915 imposed a protectorate on the little black nation of Haiti, which always had been nourished from the most ardent sources of French thought and Latin genius. Even now Haiti, which formerly was represented in the League of Nations by one of its most distinguished sons, Dantes Bellegrade, cannot obtain from the American government, which controls its finances, authorization to cover the cost of its new delegates' stay at Geneva. All of this vexation and humiliation for blacks is in the American manner, that he is the instigator of the Foreign Office's much commented upon official warning against the objection of Americans to the Minister to the Interior, and, failing to get action, took the affair up directly with Premier Poincaré's office. Shortly thereafter the note was issued, but the new incident in regard to Dahomeyans was the last straw. "Americans frequenting our night resorts bring into them their stupid prejudices of parvenus without tradition and without restraint." Asemila Jim Crow Laws He excoriates the jim crow laws, saying: "Alexander Dumaa would have found a savvy retort to triumph over the American regime, but even the great mullato novelist would have had to obey the law whereby an illiterate Chicago butcher, just because he is white, has an apparent superiority over a black of uncontestable high intellectual worth." Candace's article abounds in attacks on the "provoking and insolent attitude" of American tourists and equally castigates the French resort proprietor for taking their side. Meansman El Garron, the resort from which Dahomeyans were thrown, has lost its all-night license; and prosecution has been started against the proprietor and the waiters. Premier Poincare has written to Georges Bardhemy, the deputy who notified the Peremier of his intention to interpellate, the government on recent incidents arising out of foreigners' protests against the presence of French Negroes in plages of amusement and restaurants. The Premier points to the official warning issued to foreigners informing them they are the guests of France and, if such, should respect her customs and laws. French Authorities Bar American "Birth of a Nation as Anti-Negro Paris, France—Although the censors passed the American film, "Birth of a Nation," more than two weeks previously, when it was scheduled to be shown on August 19, the police authorities stepped in and stopped it. The Prefecture objected because of the manner is which the film dealt with relations between whites and Negroes. The English manager H. Fenston, who stands to lose $40,000 by the banning of "The Birth of a Nation" in France, this afternoon called at the Foreign Office to ask if the political objections on which the police acted could not be met by radical cuts in the picture. The principal scenes objected to are believed to be the court scene where Negroes place their bare feet on the tables and the scenes showing the pursuit of a white girl by a black man. The promoters are ready to delete all offending incidents, in order to set out on their 3,000,000 trac tour. The film was shown at Deauville today for the ban had not reached there yet. But Premier Poincaré has personally banned the film on the strength of a law passed in the second year of the French Revolution, on August 6, 1790, which gives the Government power to veto all spectacles calculated to disturb public order. This action must be read in connection with the Premier's recent decrees directed against Americans who object to the presence of Negroes in public resorts. He is being pressed on his present course by Negro deputies and by fear of losing their support in the Algerian elections. Neither, can France afford militarily to affront her North African citizens. Workman on Negro School Killed When Ground Caves (Together to The New York Age) Baltimore, Aug. 28.—One man was killed, eight laborers were injured and a tenth is believed to have been buried when an excavation for the new Negro high-school caved in during the dead. The dead was Melvin G. Young, twenty-one years, timekeeper of the gang in the excavation. The eight injured are all Negroes. Several are in the hospitals. Twenty-five men were at work, and had they not been starting for shelter from rain all would have been caught.

B TRAIN DEVICE CO. WICH SOLD STOCK IN HARLEM, STOPPED Display at 135th Street and Lenox Ave. Drew Many To Invest—Age Refused. Approval. During the summer of 1922 there came to Harlem a group of promoters who were handling addevice for controlling trains in-all weather, and selling stock to all who would inves. in the M. V. All-Weather Train Controller Co. Inc. The Age did not believe the device was practical, nor had it been accepted' for use by any operating railroad, and so the advertising office refused to accept advertisements offered and the news columns carried stories advising Harlem colored people to keep their money and let the stock alone. Now comes the information that on August 23, after six years of activity by the promoters, during which time $900,000 has been collected for stock, of which there remains only $3,000 in bank, the device not yet, being perfected, the State Attorney General's office has taken the company to court and secured an injunction against further selling of stock. Since Harman, the company has maintained a store in 1254 Broadway, where a miniature railway, similar to the one operated in Harlem, was kept running to demonstrate models of its devices. According to Deputy Attorney General Rosenthal, the company was formed in Delaware in 1917 with a capital stock of 2,000,000 shares at $1 each. The promoters have sold 969,272 shares, but the most of the money has been spent on salaries and running expenses, the latter totaling $1,000 a week. Some of the shares were sold at $1 and some at $2, but the company has only $3,000 in bank, states Mr. Rosenthal. The vice president of the company, Angus D. Mortensen, was put on the board of the company are not in a perfected shape and that it will take from two to three years before they are perfected. "Consequently," said Mr. Rosenthal, "the company has never manufactured any train controlling equipment and never sold any." The injunction was granted by Justice Mahoney Special Term, Part II, of the Supreme Court. When the company made its Harlem demonstration, seeking to separate Harlemites from their money, The Age published articles showing the unafness of the investment, and refused absolutely, at any price, to accept proffered adver- ESTABLISHED 23 YEARS Mrs. Ida White-Duncan HAIR WORKER 19 Procto St. Jersey Ct.

It is not known just how much money the company took out of Harlem after its campaign of stockselling. Fifth Annual Farmers' Congress at Greensboro Attracts Large Crowd Greenboro, N. C.—The fifth annual Negro Farmers' Congress closed a most successful session here on August 10. The meeting was attended by representatives of 100 communities of the state and twenty-five counties. The Congress was organized five years ago by C. R. Hudson, state agent; John B. Pierce, field agent; L. E. Hall, district agent; and John D. Wray, Farmmakers' Club agent, who is secretary of the Congress, for the purpose of bringing the colored formers together to discuss their mutual problems. It was inspiring to hear some of the farmers tell how they have struggled from the bottom up till some of them have large farms and are making surprisingly large amounts of clear money—one man reported $1145.16 made thus far this year. The program was interesting and included addresses on Proper methods of handling the soil, planning the farm work, food and feed crops, money crops other than cotton and tobacco, pastures and dairy cows, poultry and hogs, the home garden, making the farm home more attractive and community organization and cooperation. There were also general discussions by the farmers on practical problems with which they had been dealing. There were also talks on health and sanitation, rearing the rural children and creating in them an interest and desire for rural life. The women were also organized at this meeting and put over a fine program, in which teaching the farm women how to turn old clothes into useful garments, cooking attractive meals with ordinary articles of food, canning and preserving and the garden and its place in the home life were some of the topics spoken on in an effective manner. With the State and United States Department of Agriculture cooperating with the leading farmers and most distinguished agriculturist and scientists of the state, it is almost impossible to imagine the good that may ultimately be accomplished for Negro farmers in North Carolina by such meetings as these.

She was on the road to success when halted by the regular board of colored trustees and ousted from the board. Notice was served on Mr. Bickey Tuesday morning by E. B. Hollaway, chairman of the board of trustees that she must leave the hospital at once. She refused to leave the hospital until Mr. Holloway intended to send the sheriff to take her back.

Judging by the increase in the number of cabarets, pool rooms, cafes and booze joints in Harlem, the pursuit of pleasure would seem to be the principal occupation of its floating population. We say floating population advisedly, because it is exceedingly doubtful if the permanent residents could stand the strain of supporting the numerous places devoted to entertaining of a public character. The pleasure seekers who support the many resorts come from far and near in such numbers as to make their exploitation profitable to the proprietors who furnish the capital. A proper measure of recreation and relaxation should not be denied the workers who have performed their part in keeping the world moving in its regular orbit. But the tendency to make pleasure seeking the main business of life is bound to end in demoralization. Then the recreation should be kept within the bounds of decency and decorum. A cabaret or dance hall cannot be expected to present the same program as a Sunday School concert or a Christian Endeavor Society, yet the border line of vulgarity and lewdness should be avoided. The Age has held the opinion that the number of pleasure resorts in Harlem already exceeded the reasonable requirements of the section, even allowing for the transient population of visitors and college students. It therefore opposed the opening of the latest of these places, in which the local police authorities took the same position, but without preventing this addition to the list. It would appear as if the Harlem territory had been given over for exploitation to the promoters of "booze joints," cabarets and other resorts of a more vicious type. That the respectable residents of Harlem are alive to the demoralizing nature of these resorts and appreciate the efforts made to curtail their activities, was shown by several communications received by the editor of The Age. We print two of these: Since reading your wonderful article about Connie's Inn, I see that some of our leading ladies such as Mrs. and Mrs. and others, attended a reception there. Please put more force in your next articles about these ladies being in this place with sporting women and gamblers. Yours for the race. DAN ELLIOTT Dear Sir; Allow me to congratulate you on the wonderful fight you are making against immorality and drunkenness. Some of our leading society women continue to meet their sweethearts in Connie's Inn. Keep on fighting until all of that stuff is abolished. You live right and can afford to fight this stuff. We have omitted the names mentioned in these communications, as the personality of those frequenting these resorts does not affect the proposition that there are too many of them and that they are detrimental to the good of the community. The best way to abolish them would be for the people who are expected to support them, to refuse to be exploited in that manner. But that would probably be expecting too much from those who have always proved "easy money" for any and every kind of "skin game." The other way to abolish them would be to prosecute them for infraction of the law. Places of this sort could not keep open very long without breaking one or more of the laws provided by a paternal government. But to do this against the political pull en- by the exploiters would require push, use and persistence. It is a matter in the most cases of the community all combine for self-defense and self- protection. IS THE KLAN AMERICAN? Discussing the quality of Americanism, as advocated by the Ku Klux Klan and its exponents, Robert L. Duffus writing in the New York Herald, raised the question as to the part that terrorism and intolerance had played in the formative period of the history of this country. After describing the state of violence and dissension brought about in various communities through the activities of the Klan, the writer concluded: Perhaps this is Americanism. Certainly there is a dark truth in the American character which nw and then breaks out in mob action and in other sorts of malicious meddling. During the Revolutionary war we lynched-Torles, during the 40s and 50s we lynched abolitionists and during the Civil War both sides lynched gentlemen who ventured to differ from the prevailing opinions in their localities. Even the world war was not wholly free from demonstrations of intolerance. So it might be said that, historically, intolerance is a part of Americanism. But intolerance is pretty far from what has been set up as the ideal of Americanism. And the sort of Americanism that cannot be defended without masks, disguises, spy systems and similar weapons of the bully and the sneak is hardly worth preserving. If Americanism doesn't mean decent' and friendly relations among men of all races and all sides the less said about it the better. There is ground for belief that the tendency toward intolerance and mob violence crops out in wide streaks in the average American character. Such traits have been portrayed in bold colors by writers of the American novel. Sinclair Lewis in "Main Street," which has been universally accepted as a realistic portrayal of the Middle West and its people, makes the population of Gopher Prairie voice their disapproval of the sentiments expressed by a farmer of foreign birth, by threats of a visit by a crowd with a rope: Booth Tarkington, in one of his earlier works, "The Gentleman from Indiana," worked his small town people up to the mob pitch, where they put aside the officers of the law and marched to execute vengeance on evildoers without judge or jury. This innate contempt for the processes of the law and the maintenance of order would appear to be an underlying trait of American character, according to those who have studied it in the making. While its demonstration are more, likely to result in open breaches of the peace in smaller communities, it frequently makes itself manifest in the larger cities. Fortunately for the security of society, in these larger cities the authority of the law is more firmly established and the police usually quell the mob spirit before it becomes rampant. One reason for the growth of the Klan and its ability to secure new members is its appeal to this spirit of intolerance and resistance to constituted authority. According to a perverted sense of independent manhood, entertained by the half-educated youth, resistance to authority of all kinds is the greatest thing to be achieved. Playing to this sentiment, born of ignorance and lack of experience, the canny leaders of the Klan enroll their dupes and pocket their dollars. The remedy for this sordid appeal to the baser elements of the American character is education. Not merely the rudimentary instruction given in the public schools, but the education of the youth in the meaning of government and what constitutes the ideal of Americanism. Mr. Duffus and other writers of his character can do much to bring about this education and correct the perverse notions that culminate in Klanism and other false doctrines. The kind of Americanism advocated by the Klan is a spurious article. MIGRANTS ARE MAKING GOOD In a previous issue, we published an official confirmation of the fact that the migrating workers from the South are being absorbed into Northern industries. Since then we have received from unofficial sources further information concerning the manner in which these migrants are making good, especially in parts of Ohio and Minnesota. The report sent out from Cleveland several weeks ago by the Ohio State Employment Department, to the effect that no openings for labor were to be found in that city, was characterized as misleading and intended to discourage members of the race from entering into jobs through which they can gain a higher economic status. Our informant reports further: At Columbus the colored people are doing fine. At Cleveland an industrious colored person can always get a job. Akron is a sporty and immoral town. Colored men have good jobs, but they spend money as if it grew on a "white oak tree." At Canton there is a large element from Georgia, will work in the mills and various industries. In a watch factory, employing from 800 to 1000 white men, they have three colored gold mellers and platers, requiring high mechanical skill and reliability. In Canton there are two colored undertakers and one of them is hired by the whites as often as by the blacks. There is one colored dealer and one big grocery conducted by a colored man. All over Ohio Negro get work in the mills and manufacturing plants. Going further north to Minnesota, this same correspondent writes: In Minnesota we have ten or more colored tailors. One of them, a black man, cuts and fits and his trade is exclusively white. He's a migrant from some where down here, as can be be led by his rich southern brown. We also have our dedicated drug store, our unlicensed takers, there are doctors, these dentists, every beauty shop and so many recreation parks or pool halls. These last resorts keep the young men away from the trade schools, night extension courses at the University of Minnesota and the night schools. Over 2,000 Negroes work in the various meat packing plants. Our correspondent concludes, that from all that he can learn and see the Negro migrants have made good, and their success from an economic standpoint is an argument in favor of the exodus. LAW FOR THE MOTORIST The increase of automobile traffic in congested city streets has led to more drastic decisions by the courts in holding drivers of cars accountable for accidents. In the Homicide Court, Magistrate Marsh held that it is not enough for an automobilist to blow a horn to warn a pedestrian crossing the street. When pedestrians are endangered the automobile should be brought to a stop. Magistrate House of the Traffic Court held as a matter of fact, that nobody has an inherent right to run an automobile at all. The right to operate a motor vehicle is a privilege given by the State. That privilege may be hedged about with whatever limitations may be deemed necessary, or it may be withdrawn entirely. These decisions are all in the interest of the public to secure to the people the use of the streets, without danger to life or limb from careless or reckless drivers of motor cars. The further measure of cancelling the licenses of this class of drivers is suggested, as a means of preventing injury to those who exercise reasonable precautions both on foot and in motors. What is to be done with that class of people who start across the street in the middle of a block and zigzag back and forth undecidedly is undetermined. The careful driver will stop his car and blow his horn until they decide on their course. EQUAL SCHOOL FACILITIES. According to a news dispatch from Muskogee, a decision was rendered by the Oklahoma State Supreme Court which bids fair to revolutionize the separate school system of that State. The dispatch read: The school year for colored and white schools, the teachers' salaries and the school facilities must be equal according to a decision of the State Supreme Court issued last week. The decision was rendered in a case which involved the right of the city to close the colored schools for lack of funds last year, leaving the white schools open. The decree declares that the state is spending $65 per capita on white schools and only $19 on colored schools in violation of state constitution, which calls for separate school's impartially maintained. While this decision will affect only the school system of Oklahoma, it reveals in true colors the iniquitous injustice of the apportionment of school funds in all the states that maintain separate schools. Take Georgia for instance, where the appropriation for the higher education of the Negro is $25,000 against $22,000 for the higher education of white youth. Georgia also devotes the hundreds of thousands of dollars donated by the Federal Government under the Smith-Lever bill for agricultural education of whites only, while nothing is spent for the agricultural education of the blacks. If the principle of equal facilities for the education of both races as a constitutional right, enunciated by the Supreme Court of Oklahoma, was applied to the whole South, it would be a great step forward toward the redemption of the late Confederacy from the error of its ways. COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS In answering a correspondent who felt that it was the duty of the newspaper to make a complaint in the matter of the mishandling of fraternity funds, the Kansas City Call said: The function of a newspaper is to publish what happens. To say that any man steals, big or little, because it is proven, is not to say that which is, but that which remains to be proven. The difference between those two is the difference between honest, ethical publicity and libelous gossip. If some accused charges in any tribunal, open to public knowledge, it is a fact that the charges are brought, and we can tell that, together with the nature of the charges. But we cannot appear as the public prosecutor, no matter how flawrant the misdeed. But the press can urge upon the fraternal orders and secret societies the wisdom of bidding their financial officers against losses and providing for audit of their accounts by expert accountants. That an opportunity is afforded to migrants from the South in Iowa was pointed out by the Des Moines Register, in the following editorial: The Bystander has recently received communications from farmers in Georgia inquiring whether Iowa farms offered any opportunity for Negro farmers. To these letters we have replied by giving a synopsis of the state's resources, what the white man has accomplished and advised that the same thing can be done by Negro farmers. Many articles have been published concerning this great stream of immigration North, and much publicity directed toward showing these people to the great cities of the East. It is unfortunate indeed that more do not come to the agricultural regions where farm life is made worth living, and follow the location to which most of them are adapted. No doubt if more know that there was such a thing as decent treatment upon the part of white land owners a great amount of perquisition, would not be necessary to make the distribution more general. Proper distribution of these workers from *ne* South in sections where their labor is needed and adequate housing and living conditions are possible is the great thing needed. The greater number that can be induced to settle on farms the letter it will be for them. The Bystander does well to point out the community in *ne* The mob spirit has always been in Georgia. Its spice has been venerated solely upon the defenseless Negro. More recently there has been a slight holding up so far as the public knows, but the spirit must go marching on, for that reason the mobbers are now mobbing their kind, and a happy time they are having in the empire state venting their spleen upon each other. May this be the cause of a turning point of the mob spirit, and these occurrences compel a healthy respect for law and order, and a wholesome sentiment to enforce it. The mob spirit grows by what it feeds on. Unrestrained lawlessness directed against black victims has now grown to the point where whites are in equal jeopardy. The only remedy is the absolute enforcement of law and order for the protection of all classes of the citizenship alike. Referring to the wonderful military record of the Ohio 9th Battalion, the 8th Illinois and the old 15th Regiment of New York, the Detroit Independent asked what about a national guard organization of the race in Michigan. It said. According to the most conservative prediction, Michigan will have a colored population of at least two hundred thousand in the next five years; this entitles us to a separate military outfit. We believe that the time is ripe to start. The ex-service men endorsed by our representative citizens ought to take the initiative. The state should be proud if such request, because during the state and national crisis, which are bound to come, the colored man being 100 per cent. American has and can always be relied upon to carry out the orders of the authorities against domestic or foreign foes. In a cosmopolitan city like Detroit, of a large foreign element, a disturbance is likely to occur at any time which takes 100 per cent Americans in ideals and training to handle. The White House tried the colored soldier in 1918-20; they were tried in Europe and by our foreign foes, notwithstanding they were mistreated they remained loyal to the Stars and Stripes. What about a National Guard outfit, colored citizens of Michigan? Representation in the military service of the State for this tried and reliable element of the citizenship would be a good thing for the race and for the state alike. In discussing the needs of the denomination in the Star of Zion, the Rev. E. Malcolm Argyle said among other things: There is absolutely no need of five more bishops. The A. M. E. Zion Church could be divided up into ten Episcopal districts and cover; all of its territory. This would necessitate the election of three more active bishops and we have a half score of the best material in the Church to select from. What is the use of burdening ourselves with a top heavy episcopate with scarcely anything to do. If the members of our present episcopal force are all active and in condition to do our work, then we should be reasonable. It is high time we begin to discuss some remedial relief for the strained condition of our church. Too much stress is being put on men and not enough on measures. Our schools are in crying need of financial relief. Our publishing house seems like it will never be self-sustaining. We are behind with the salaries of our bishops and departmental heads and on all sides the demands are serious. When not inaugurate a new system and collect more money. Then terrestrial regime should be condition mightily, yet it has fostered the seed of rebellion in too many of our churches to be perpetuated. Let us do something more tangible in the forthcoming general conference than merely electing a few men to run the church another quadrennium. That is an encouraging symptom of the disposition among thinking clergymen and laymen to view the church as a moral agency, which should be managed with care and efficiency to secure the best results. It should not be used as a vehicle for the riding of personal ambition or self-seeking exploiters. In announcing the coming convention of the National Baptist Convention, to be held at Fort Worth, Texas, September 5 to 10, the Nashville Globe said: Dr. J. H. Winn is author, for the statement that "all is ready" for from 8:00 to 10:00 delegates. We are now completing all improvements necessary to make our church one of the most spacious, as well as modernly convenient buildings anywhere in the Southwest; the conditions and relationship between the races is as good, if not better that can be found anywhere in all the country, therefore we most religiously pledge the Baptists of America one of the greatest meetings ever held during the lifetime of our great Convention. To that end we have adopted theologian, "Come On to Ft. Worth, We Will Do These Good." That is promising a good deal for Texas, but presumably the people of Fort Worth know the local conditions that warrant such a propitious forecast Texas is a great State, embracing many extremes of sentiment and diverse conditions. Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the National Baptist convention and pastor of Olivec Baptist Church, Chicago, said to be the largest Baptist Church in the world, was elected to membership of the executive committee of the Baptist World Alliance held at Stockholm, Sweden. We do not profess to know the ins and outs of such things but we do know the appointment of Mr. Slemp as secretary to the President forbodes no good to the Negro of America.—Louisville News. The most radical Democrat would have been acclaimed with better feeling. Mr. Slemp is among the chiefs of lily whitism and has done more to thwart the colored Republicans of Virginia than any other agency.—Suzannah Tribune. Nebulous Dawn.

Moore. A rose on the brow of the living is of more value than to bury the dead beneath a wilderness of flowers. Dr. Mason was born in Birmingham, Alabama five decades ago. Educated at Hunterville College, and a graduate of Mehary Medical College. He supplemented his early training by travel and study in Europe. During the administration of Hon. Frank V. Evans, as mayor of Birmingham, Dr. Mason was assistant city physician and served with eminent credit during a great epidemic. His interest in education and successful efforts for better schools and teachers for Alabama and Birmingham in particular were one of the factors in causing Willberforce University to be tow upon him the degree of doctor of laws. For a quarter of a century Dr. Mason has been a national figure in the medical, political and tralern councils of his party and race. By practical investments and a large practice he has accumulated a competency and donates liberally for the uplift of the race. Several times he has been a delegate from the state at large to the Republican National Conventions. He has never held political office, but time and again has financed campaigns for the recognition of the Negro in party affairs. At one time his his friends all over the country thought that he would grasp the United States collectorship of Internal Revenue for Alabama, but President Taft had a "kikl" in his back over night and apples of gold were changed to dust. For years Dr. Mason has been an officer of the Suptime Grand Lodge of Pythians, and as endowment treasurer of the Alabama Grand Lodge of Pythians has safely guarded more than a million dollars. He is plain and unassuming, and is sufficiently educated and experienced to know his limitations. Dr. Mason has been eyes, ears and battle-axe for the race in this section of the country for years. Ensence some men in a good job, or let them get fixed financially and "To hell with the race," so far as they are personally concerned, but Dr. Mason stays with the rank and file of the people and like Lancelot, fights the battle of Armageddon. Sins of the Parents. By Dr. B. S. HERBEN of the New York Tuberculosis Association There is one disease in which the consequences are apt to be worse for the children than for the parent who has it, and that disease is syphilis. It is closely related to a great share of our cases of insanity and many of the forms of paralysis, such as locomotor ataxia, as well as the attacks of aplpuexy. Heart diseases and trouble with the arteries and chronic kidney trouble may be the result of this infection which is spread from one person to another by intimate contact, or the use of towels, etc. which have been contaminated. Serious is this disease in its after effects and as a cause of early death, that many life insurance companies will not insure a person known to have had this disease. America's unofficial participation in international affairs is strikingly illustrated by a recent development in British educational policy in Africa according to Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, Director of Education for the Phelps-Stokes Fund of New York, who returned August 15 after three months in England and on the Continent. He reports the formation of a British Advisory Committee on African Education which will develop training for the natives along the lines worked out at Hampton and Tuskegee. Dr. Jones spent ten months during 1920 and 1921 in West, South and Central Africa as chairman of the African Education Commission, and later wrote the official report which has stimulated interest in England to break away from the purely formal education of tradition and adapt the training to the practical needs of communal African life. Speaking in Parliament on July 25th in regard to the organization of the Imperial Advisory Committee, Major Ormsby-Gore, Under Secretary for the Colonies, said "We were led to this largely as a result of a most extraordinarily interesting report prepared by Dr. Jesse Jones. He has made a most helpful contribution to the subject of African Education from the point of view of the Native. It is hoped that Dr. Jones may pay a similar visit to the East African Colonies." The Belgian Government is showing a similar interest in this report and is planning to translate it for distribution among their colonial officials. the conference which led up to the organization of the Advisory Committee on African Education was held in London on June 10, 2012 at Dr. Jeremy and it is significant that attends that date was Dr. Day, a Government official in the Ministry of Education and other important officials, attended. No less significant is the influence which American ideals and practices are playing, although unofficially, in the development of the new British policy toward the education of its wards in Africa. It is of good promise for the future that the two great English speaking nations are going to work out together the problem of their relationship with their black neighbors. "The British Colonies and the Union of South Africa, which is essentially British, together from by all odds the most potent influence for the future development, economically, and socially, of the vast continent of Africa. This controlling influence arises from the im Saturday, September 1, 1923 Many of the operations on caused by syphilis which h ed internal organs. Most born babies are denied live because they have lea by one or both of their a live child is born of sy rents, it may have a term ease, or it may have some formity which must be care last day of life. Nerv may appear in children having this disease. In the effects of this inher appear in children until the age of thirteen, or more Any one who has had h or any child who has h characteristics from this very apt to catch other cases. Syphilis, seen door to all sorts of all The way to stop the this disease is to permit a physician or the clinic a good hospital to take care of curing the case under caution. Avoid quacks who money and white frighten patient do absolutely personal cleanliness and the use of the separate brushes, etc. Since this disease is one sex to the other and more than in any other, sary to preserve strict the laws of morality as the relations of the sexes familiarities, no kissing, dulge in no illegal relation this way there can be a danger of acquiring syphilis it along to innocent undren. A. Defense of Slemp. Editor of THE NEW YORK ACE While I do not agree with the of the Republicans styled the yet I am unwilling to believe that Bassom Slepk Secretary to the dent of the United States is implying the advance of the our group. It has been a long time ago the Virginia Legislature of the Bassom Slepk and the writer stage manager of the body. It was in the days of W. W. Mabone. Mr. Slepk's father was that time, a member of the Bassom Slepk was a magnificent man In a state Republican position I about that time, cut off all of the colored men in the red and fifty were colored men, including the染色 purpose of Mahone to have the colored group take a back seat to the colored men in the red and fifty were colored men, were clerks in the old Capitol, the colored men, and shortly thereafter, the colored men also a colored man, assistant police officer, Sheriff, postoffice, and there were a number of respectable positions occupied by colored men. All of this it was the same policy to put in conspicuous leading white men. And, in so doing, Mahone argued that it was in the highest and the most respectable position that the position which was maintained Mahone had brought large increases in former inmates into the lieutenant's office, and that the increase in the number, so as practically divide in half the Democratic party, result would not only be for the lieutenant of Virginia, but likewise for the Now, it is perfectly proper, as counsel men, that we should with him, at all the a white Republican who takes the these view is necessarily a Negro person. Let him be free with a covenant. Let he be free with a covenant. Give him a trial, and maybe it proves him a freedom than proves him a freedom than At any time, he best it has a charitable view of the situation. GEORGIA 1. I. BILLS Baltimore, Md.

Frequency of most collarate country has left the public more or less calloused and in to the utterance involved in the toil to enforce law against law and organized mob. They seem to be accepted by her as a matter of course. Frequently mob threats the lives of mob omnials as has been done in of the governor of Ohio because of the law and organized government protecting mob lawlessness the to that the government is waged in to be the father of the mob. In such a case the board of government has made and its scope to include the authority, the only remaining government. It must be that law and lawlessness cannot be gerether. Either organized mob must destroy the rule of the mob rule mob will destroy the government. Frank S.

Now at 18 she proves that the indications shown in her early youth were not just a “fash in the ran." : Constant study and faithful application have brought her art to a riper and more imuture realization. She has been studying all this while under Wilson Lamb, whose studio is in the Metropalitan Building, Main street, Orange, N. J, and her development ig a tribute to the soundness of Mr. Lamb's methods. Her voice is sweet, with depth and strength: Sometimes, it secme. to me, + she, overemphasizes the sweetness at the sacrifice of vivaciousness, There were times during her program that a bit more of energy would have been of ar advantage, imparting variety and preventing a surfeit of sweetness, Her voice eas power and rugged strength and these qualities are not, to be neglected. ‘There is a general transportation tie-up in Hudson and Essex , counties, dlue i) @ sirike oa the Jersey trotley lines, und one Hay to depend largely: on moter buses in getting atvut, — Cnfamilarity with the particular line running from Newark to East Orange caused me tr miss the first group sung by Miss Pendleton, four songs by McDowell, “Long age, sweetheart mine.” “The swan bent low.” “A mard sing light and “Ay the glooming”” The next group con- tamed songs by Hamblen, Bertrand Brown and Nicholls, and hee final number metuded the beantriul [Oh!

There wa> a. slight Tuskiness of tone in the middle and lower registers, but his high Voice was dleae and. resonant, ringing with the charm and parity which hay made hin a generat favorite with all classes of mysic levers. Hix revort to part fal- setto effect in reaching high ( was easily forgiven. Mr. White playrd an ambitious pro- gram—too ambitions, in fact, ay sever a} of the numbers were clearly beyond his’ powers, expecially as regards tech- nique. This was notably true in his ped- al work in ¢he Bach Torcata in D minor and the Guilmant Sonata No. 1. Instead af the clear-cut, definite precision neces- Lary, the performer's pedalling was moze than’ inaccurate, it, was “sloppy” Nor was this lack atoned for by work’ bi. the manuals. The playing generally was colorless and lackluster, stiff and 09 strained, and marred by poor registra. tion effects. It way without authority and 4 long ways from poressing the merit the auditors had been led to ¢x- Peet, What mérit there was in the program was contained in a rendition of Will H McFarlane’s “Romanza,” « daimy and appealiig number, with a theme {aintly reminiscent of the second theme intro duced by Guilmant in the first move- ment nf his Sonata.

Through inadvertence it was not stat- ed that this story was wenten by Geo. 'B. Underwood, sports writer an the Evening Teiegram, and way first printed in that faper, being reproduced in The Age because of the interest many of its readers exhibit in the hope for air op- portunity to be made for Harry Wills, the colored boxer, to meet Jack ‘Demp- sey, the present heavyweight champion. ‘Alter the article was in type and in the’ forms, a statement was published in| which Governor Smith denied that he] had put a ban on the Dernpey- Will match, stating that the matter was en- tirely in the hands of the State Boxing Commission. This denial was put in a box and inserted at the head of the column in which the Underwood article was already placed. * , ‘A friend of The Age, a distinguished! white citizen of New York, has writtea The Age concerning this publication, in} the following manner: “T should like to know your authority for saying that Governor Smith has tak- en personal. action regarding the prize fight. I heard yesterday positive asser- thon that he had not interfered in any way and that any action would be by the Boxing Commission. It is a serious matter to publish Gov. Smith's plain denial and to asume the =responsibility ‘Governor Smith has decided” as an op- posite aqsertion. I do not suppose he would go into-it by bringing a libel suit but it is serious to make such an explicit charge against the Governor of this State] 1 10 his deliberately making a false statement.

CLARK Fred Keats, writing in the New York Sun and Globe, recently commented "on the decline of the colored boxer and Pointed out that in former years hie was supreme, especially in the heavyweight division. Whereas, today, with the ex: ception of Wills, there is tio outstanding colored boxer in any division of the sport. . “The reason for this decline ‘is that after Jack Yohmun was defeated, the Negro was' practically barred from box- ing, especially mixed bouts, Tor several years and is now just beginning to Gght again. During this period, most of the older «colored boxers retired and few young ones entered the sport. Since the lifting of the ban on mixed bouts in this state, a large number of colored boys have gone in for boxing, and in a few years such fighters as Bobby Rivdon, Kid Buller, Jack McVey, Larry Estridge and others coming along will again take the place formerly uccupied by the Ne- gro in the pugilistic world. It is a more difficult matter to’ explain the inactivity of the Negro in track aryl fick! athletics, especially in the East.

COLONIZED WOMAN STARS NORTHFIELD COMFREE Englanders in problems of her race has Charlotte Hawkins Brown; and this is the more remarkable when it is poised that she is outspoken against injustices wrought through prejudice here in the North as much as in the South. She offers no apologies for color or race but in dignified and eloquent in her insistence upon fairplay where the race is concerned. Mrs. Brown apoke to the Conference on "Saving America through Her Negro Youth," and the enthusiasm which her address received amounted to an ovation which was given to no other speaker on the program. She declared that America is likely to ignore the fact that while the Negro is the unprivileged class, it is impossible to have 12,000,000 of any race in this country without feeling its influence for good or will. Continuing, Mrs. Brown said in part: "The Negro youth in our schools and colleges are preparing themselves, for the leadership of a race that the most prejudiced will admit has earned its right to fair play and a square deal. The institutions in which they are being trained are for the most part the lengthened shadows of those wonderful consecrated souls of the white race who dared to follow the trail of Sherman and Grant and wage a war against ignorance. Is it not all the more reasonable to expect these youths to accept the high and exalted ideals of Christian America as their standards when they themselves as well as their parents had close and intimate contact with the finest brain and character of the white race? "There are those who have slept during the past fifty years while this child race, as some Americans are wont to call it, has marched steadily forward. It is exceedingly difficult for that type of American to admit this race has a valuable contribution to make to America in spirit as well as in toil. During the early stages of the recent World War this expression was very common. 'This is a white man's war,' but before any great progress was made, nearly one-half million duke lads clad in khaki, marched to the tune of Yankee Doodle and Dixie. These Negro boys followed the colors across the Atlantic in large numbers. There side by side, these brave boys of ours lay in the trenches, went over the top. Many of Dorsey Wood Park Farm.

July 16-20 them still sleep beneath poppies France, attaching to the willingness of the Negro to make the supreme sacrifice for America. "They fought hard for a freedom for others that had been denied them. It was the great spirit of Hope in their hearts, that made it possible for them to die like men while many a chaplain heard them whisper. 'Wrap Old Glory around the folks at home and let it protect them.' "Many, of you who have, so generously supported the schools for Negroes in the South have begun to doubt, the wisdom of continuing your interest: 'Is it worth while?' is a question of many lips. Their war record justified your confidence, you say, but what of their record in time of peace? The one answer to all of this is the noticeably growing race consciousness and race The longing of the Negro to administer to his own is a nencouraging sign. Hundreds and thousands of poorly paid yong teachers in the South are undergoing all sorts of privations that they may carry light to the children of their race in the backwood districts. "Let me cite a story that illustrates the spirit of Negro youth: Two little ragged urchins stood at the railroad crossing in a country, town while the great 'mogul' drawing a long train of freight cars switched and backed on the siding. The older lad watched with great admiration the engineer who held the throttle with such calm confidence; with a sigh, he said, 'I wish I was a white boy so I could learn to run that engine.' The younger lad who had looked on with knitted brow, raised himself on tip toe, stuck his thumb under his suspenders with an air of defiance and said, 'All I want is a chance and I'll run it as I am.' That's the secret. The Negro youth does not want to be white. The Negro youth wants 'opportunity' to develop his God-given powers along all lines. He years for the rights and privileges of American citizenship to which, by birth and racial contribution to America's prosperity, he is entitled. "In return, he asks a chance to contribute further to the safeguarding of American ideals. "The Negro youth's most important contribution to the Saving of America is their ardent love for America and American ideals.

If Negro youth become haters, and God grant that such a day shall never begin upon them, the sin will be at the door of the white Christian. We cannot forget that the race which enslaved us also laid on the altar its vows to free us. We shall not forget that what we in America today is largely due to the sympathetic interest of the group among you who established our schools, our churches, built hospitals and helped to make out of the books—relics of slavery—clean sweet home. "Yet, to you who are silent when you know of the crimes committed against the innocent; the unfair deals, etc., to you who have the power to change or make such legislation that will establish fair play and justice for all people; to you who through the practice of the Christian religion can change the tide of our affairs—we are appealing for understanding sympathy. We are teaching the youth of my race to be patient in suffering, but not to be content with the unChristian conditions forced upon them. We are trying to help them discern the Hand of God, to see Jesus through all of the dark shadows." Real Estate & Investments SEE ME BEFORE BUYING May 19-23 PHILIP A. PAYTON, JR.
