TAMMANY'S GREATEST CHIEF
GamblingByMenandWomen Through Playing "Clearing House Numbers"Is a Menace
Thousands of Dollars Pour Into Coffers of Backers of Scheme Daily, and Many Homes Are Made Desolate and Deprived of Ordinary Necessities of Life Because of Money Placed on "Numbers."
ALLURING ODDS OFFERED THE GULLIBLE OF SIX HUNDRED TO ONE SUCCEED IN DRAWING HARD EARNED DOLLARS FROM POOR POCKETS
New Scheme Is Of a Lottery Character, and It Has Become a Habit With Men and Women in All Walks of Life—Its Devotees Are Sacrificing Everything in the Hope of Making a "Big Hit."
Playing the "Clearing House numbers" by residents of Greater New York has assumed proportions that constitute a distinct menace to the moral and economic life of the race.
This statement is borne out by evidence brought to The Age from various sources, indicating that the vicious habit has found its way into all circles and that as a consequence many persons are sacrificing money and time to a hurtful extent trying to make a hit at the unusual odds of six hundred to one.
numbers game offer a pay winners at the rate of $0 every one cent put up and these tremendous wilds have the offer to win most of the most and and a well to the wilds of many treasures the treasures are paying numbers
The dangerous character of the proposition is found in the fact that the number grows and the tick which begins putting up small cents from a penny cents, soon gets to sucking dollars every day in the hope that a lucky remunerate it all the losses sustained. But luck, boss, are less a darter beware!

He was taken by auto then to St Patrick's Cathedral, where he was welcomed by the rector, Mgr Michael J Lavelle and where a religious ceremony was held.

Harlem's hooch hounds were on the lookout last Saturday and Sunday, the result being that when the Special Service Squad of the Police Department began visiting the various bootlegging emporiums located in this community only three arrests were made.
Although the hooch parlors continue their bold flaunting of the prohibition law, the operators have changed their methods of operation so that the law officers find it extremely difficult to discover where the hooch hounds are keeping their supply of wet goods.
The Age has received a number of communications concerning the leasing by Robert W. Wollis president of the J.C. Price Lyceum at Mother A.M.E.

At 519 Lenox avenue, the camouflaged delftseasen store-street by Milton Keynes, the holdout of the Thames river, it was just a few days ago that officers of the raiding squad succeeded in making their way to the cellar catch by entering through a door on 136th street, and the confiscated a large quantity of alcohol, together with hooch which had been prepared for serving to prospective customers. Since that time, the officers have not succeeded in discovering any liquor in that place, although customers are never turned away, and there seems to be no limit to the quantity at hand for immediate consumption.
Trap Door in Floor
Others visiting Moes place the week made diligent search but failed to sid made diligent search but failed to discover the trap done in the lion behind the counter, just about where the bartender stands, through which booth is handed up from the cellar by an attendant who is on duty down there, and who responds quickly to the orders given by the bartender above in confidence.
by the bartender above in accordance with the customer's desire, whether it be gun, corn or rye. Of course all these liquors have the same common base of alcohol, sometimes grain more often denatured, the only difference being the flavor or extract that is used to give in the sumitude of the different brands.
Fifth Lenox and Seventh avenues each afforded one arrest last Saturday, Patrolman Mettomache of the Special Service Squad arrested Gertrude Benden of 51 Boston Road at the station 2190. Fifth avenue finding a quantity of alleged corn whiskey and a quart of the same kind of gun behind the bar.
At 573 Lenox avenue said to be operated by one of the贮粮倔婆 was paid a visit by Patrolman Sask of the Special Service Squad and be arrested John Harvey at 47 West 1290 street, who was in possession of 40 half pint flasks of soiled grit 35 4 oz bottles of gun and 10 half pint bottles of alleged whiskey.
The same officer called at 2465 Seventh avenue the same day and had Jacob Leanne at 4241. 80th street take a stroll to the station house. Leanne was charged with the possession of 40 half pint flasks of soiled grit 35 4 oz bottles of gun and 10 half pint bottles of alleged whiskey.
Willia and Wife in Court
Notice the effect that he was unaware of the nature or the business conducted in his property at 138th street and Seventh avenue, but court records contradict his statements. Summoned to the Federal Court during March, before Judge Knox, Mrs. Willis testified that the lessee of the property was one man, but Mr. Willis, on the stand, testified that the property was leased to another man. Certain it is that both Willis and his wife were repeatedly informed by officers of the kind of business carried on in the premises at 2360 Seventh avenue, the last formal notice having been given them last week.
Injunction Against 2360
And in the face of his continued denial of knowledge as to the hooch selling in his place, the Federal Attorney has secured an injunction against the bootlegging activities at 2360, and as soon as the United States Marshal can effect service, the restraining order will put a stop to the selling of liquor in the place. This injunction, it is understood, is of a temporary character, but the police officials of the 38th Precinct have already started machinery to moving toward getting another injunction against the place based on evidence obtained in the raids made on Saturday and Sunday: April 12 and 13.
In fact, according to information received by The Age, there have been issued injunctions against hooch joints sued a number of injunctions against hooch joints now operating in Harlem, and they only wait the availability of a marshal to attend to the serving of them.
Miniature Are Criticised
Letters have also been received from members, of various Harlem churches which contain criticisms of some of the ministers for alleged lack of courage on their part, as shown by their failure to take part in the fight for a Decent Harlem. At the same time, some of the ministers are alleging many ridiculous things against The Age with reference to its fight for better conditions in the community
The Age has strong reason to believe that some of these preachers are contaminated through shady alliances with the hooch hounds, and their actions are intended to serve as a smoke screen with regard to their own activities. They have religion, possibly, but they are lacking in Christianity. However, whatever may be their opinion as to The Age, results are being accomplished and the hooch hounds are on the run. The worst offenders of decency and violators of the law are being driven out. The present indications are that the Seventh avenue joints will soon be a thing of the past, and that thoroughfare will again be a fit place for decent folks to traverse.
Scores of women are making daily complaints to The Age, to the police, and to various welfare agencies, asking for assistance in stopping their husbands from frequenting their hooch joints and squandering all their money. Many of them say they have appealed to the pastors of their churches, but without avail. The women say the preachers seem unwilling to do or say anything about the degrading and debasing influence of the hooch selling in Harlem. Their bushands are pauperizing themselves and depriving their families of the necessities of life through spending all their money in these holle holes
A survey of Harlem streets last Sunday indicated that a large number of the patrons of the hooch joints are young men. Although a street watch seems to be constantly kept over these places, there is little restriction apart as there is a constant stream of customers going in and out of the various places. In some instances, side entrances are used.
Error In Lenex Avenue Number
Through an error 412 Lenox avenue was inserted in the list of numbers of booth places now in operation. This is the store occupied by the Anderson Furniture Store and the Anderson and Saunders Real Estate Agency, and there has never been any connection of these business places with booth selling. Both Mr Anderson and Mr Saunders are reputable business men of unblemished character and good standing, and The Age regrets that the error should have been made. The number should have been 412, which is a delicatessen store just next door to the Anderson store.
At 503 Lenox avenue, where a small room has been petitioned off from the restaurant operated at the corner of 135th street, in the Anderson bank building, there was operated at first one of the hooch selling places. But the constant visits of dry law enforcement officers, coupled with the smashing up of fixtures during raids, led to its being closed. Now it is opened again as a cigar store, and it has been listed as among the hooch joints now in operation.
Max Levy who states that he is the proprietor of the store called at The Age office and declared most positively that no hooch is being sold in that place now. Investigation breaks out his claim, as no evidence of hooch selling there is visible. That number therefore is removed from the list as printed in The Age.

the "numbers," in the wild hope that they might happen to strike the winning combination and reap a rich reward. One woman, working every day at house work, receiving $4 and $410 for each day's work, has developed the "numbers" playing habit to such a degree that she actually suffers for lack of proper food through not having money for that purpose after her daily efforts to make a winning
Another case is known where a man, heretofore of good standing and enjoying splendid credit, has become addicted to the "numbers" habit to the extent that he has not been able to pay his rent. Dispossess proceedings were instituted against him by the landlord, and facing eviction, he went to a business man on Seventh avenue to arrange a loan of $60. A prominent Harlem minister accompanied him for the purpose of endorsing the application for the loan. But it appeared that the man was already indebted to the business man in the sum of $700, and payments had not been made for some time. The situation was explained to the minister who was told by the business man why the applicant for the loan was in such straits. As a consequence, the loan was refused and the minister also withdrew his promise to lend his endorsement for the loan
Women "Dope" Out Numbers.
A collector for a Harlem furniture company declares that his collections have dropped from an average of $250 to $300 to about $85, and the reason, he says, is that wherever he goes including some of the best homes in Harlem it is a "common sight to see a group of women gathered around a table doping out figures to be used in playing the "numbers." Instead of being paid, as was formerly the case, now he says, he is met with a request for a number to be played, and frequently he is told that when a "but" is made he will be paid something on the account. One custom, formerly paying regularly his installments of $18 every two weeks, joined with several other men in making up a bank to back the "numbers" and now his payments are seldom made. Suggestions are being made that the Clearing House he requested to devise some plan of making public his daily reports of bank balances that would make impossible the grouping of figures as is now done to find the winning "number." Just how this may be done it is hard to say unless the reports are not given to the daily papers. Perhaps the police authorities might take some steps to curb the practices, though it is hard possible that they could entirely eliminate it.
But the situation is rapidly approaching that point where something will have to be done - say those who are familiar with conditions in Harlem. Men and women in all walks of life are added to the game, and they are paintering themselves and depriving their family of needed comforts in the hope of profeetering by tremendous odds offered by

Dr. Long was greeted by a large and enthusiastic audience and the address was highly appreciated. The financial offering for the day amounted to more than $200. The Brotherhood of the church is getting together for the purpose of having some much needed repairs made on the roof of the church building. The organizations of the ladies will take care of the work on done on the inside. All are looking forward now to the general club reports on the third Sunday in June

Ashbury Park, N. J—Many visitors were welcomed to Ashbury Park during the Easter season, but owing to the intermittent showers, there was a lack of the usual display of Easter gowns on Springwood avenue and the Boarwalk. The largest floral basket in the park was displayed from the clef 'Veranda. This basket has a measurement of seven feet in height and is fourteen feet circumferencer.

Our Choice For Governor
Col. WILLIAM HAYWARD
"No law however is too good or too important not to be changed if it is changed by orderly processes of a free people, operating under their own Constitution. And no man or woman is too good not to obey that law as long as it is on the statute books."
—WILLIAM HAYWARD.
U.S. Attorney, Southern District of New York.
The death of Charles F. Murphy, for twenty-two years the leader of Tammany Hall, sudden and unexpected as it was, is likely to be fraught with momentous consequences to the Democratic party throughout the country and to the people of all parties in the city of New York Mr. Murphy, during the greatest part of his political leadership, was the real head of the city government. Mayors have come and mayors have gone, but Mr. Murphy has remained at his post dictating the conduct of city government in greater part during this period.
With the political aspect of Mr. Murphy's career and the effect his death is likely to have on the candidacy of Governor Smith for the Presidency, it is not necessary for us to deal. It is the purpose of this article to emphasize in brief measure the part that Mr. Murphy played in developing and maintaining a sentiment of broadness and liberality in civic affairs that made New York a greater city and a better place to live in for the many races gathered within its boundaries
A review of Mr. Murphy's career described him as a boy of the Gas House district, who had been a porter in an East Side saloon, a horse car driver, a saloon keeper and a contractor, who acquired wealth and a position of unique power in politics. It may have been these humble beginnings that endowed the leader of Tammany with the human touch in his politics. At all events it was clearly manifested that he was free from any bias of race or color prejudice in his dealings with his fellow citizens.
The Revote of Tammany's policy in dealing with the Negro voters of New York was struck by Richard Croker, the Tammany leader whom Mr Murphy succeeded. A Republican district attorney refused to appoint the late James D. Carr to a place in his office on the plea that the time had not come to give an appointment of that importance to a colored man. Tammany Hall won the following election, aided to some extent by the resentment of the colored voters. The new district attorney, Asa Bird Gardiner a Tammany Democrat made Carr one of his first appointments. Mr. Croker encouraged Chief Edward F. Lee in his effort to form the United Colored Democracy and other appointments of colored men followed, notably that of John W. A Shaw as tax assessor for Queens.
Despite the small number of allEvents that this police came among Negroes at first, Mr. Murdock sent the court down by Mr. Trickell he he creased the place where the city service was with his approval that they grew greater importance. The police force was opened to member of the race in Manhattan as it had been done in Brooklyn we were earlier under Master Chapin and Mr. Woods. The police followed by the other authorities in the matter of the teachers without regard to the police being with the tactu ap. The secr. to the tenth Regime formed of the regiment to this same liberal polity.
The imitation of the principle in the part of the field of a great political organization growing the greatest in the world is the most estimated. It imbued all of his life with some of the same humanizing power of the adheres and liberals. While the motive that underlay the policy may have been political the effect was not for good. For good race could not head In the their fellow Murphy set be emulated by many Republican leaders.
The first article of the political creed common to every party, whether it be Republican, Democratic, Socialist, Farmer-Labor or what not, should be to keep faith with every element of its constituency. A party that fails to keep its promises or agreements toward any group of its membership, breeds distrust and is on the road to disintegration and decay.
The revival of "Lillywhite" tactics among Southern Republicans, as uncovered by The Age, especially in Arkansas where the meetings for the election of convention delegates were called at places from which the colored electors were barred, recalls the regulation adopted by the National Republican Committee four years ago, strictly forbidding such practices. This resolution was adopted upon motion of Col. Charles B. Warren of Michigan, then a member of the National Committee and recently appointed as Ambassador to Mexico. The immediate cause for its adoption was the hearing of the contest for delegates from North Carolina, Charles H. Moore being the spokesman for the contestants. After his arraignment of the "Tar Heel lilywhites," Col. Warren asked the speaker a few pertinent questions, after which he introduced his resolution.
That there still exists urgent need for the enforcement of the National Committee's regulation against "lilywhite" tactics was shown in a recent communication from this same spokesman, Mr Moore, addressed to the editor of The Age. He said among other things
I am glad to see that The Age is uncovering some of the "lilywhite" gang here in the South. Isaac Meekins, sometimes called "Ike" Meekins has been nominated by the "lilywhites" in their state convention, held in Raleigh last month, for Governor
Notwithstanding North Carolina is credited with casting more Republican votes in the last Presidential campaign than any eight other southern states combined, nevertheless Mr. Coolidge will stand no chance of securing the electoral vote of this state, largely on account of the un-Republican tactics of such "lilywhites" as "like" Meekins, who not only will not offer their aid that colored Republicans, who are, according to the state law, qualified to vote, may get on the registration books, but privately and openly on the stump discourage them by saying (when the "lilywhites" are approached for help) "I don't think it best you should try to register."
It is such an attitude as this on the part of certain white Republican leaders in the South that puts the question squarely up to the members of the National Committee, whether they will keep faith with the Negro members of the party in enforcing the regulation against "hilywhiteism," adopted four years ago. The action of Committeeman Remmel in Arkansas. Meekins in North Carolina. Phillips in Georgia and others like them, prove that the evil has not been squelched by the mere adoption of such a resolution. The regulation must be enforced by penalizing its violators. Any persons elected as delegates to the National Convention by methods violating this regulation, should be refused recognition.
The absurdity and inconsistency of the attitude taken by the "hilywhite" Republicans of the South can be better appreciated by contrast with the action of the enrolled Republican voters in such States as New Jersey and New York. In the former, we find Dr. George F. Cannon elected as delegate at large to the National Republican Convention leading the ticket with over 80,000 votes. In New York Mrs. Louise Faverweather of Brooklyn who was chosen as an alternate delegate at large, was accorded an ovation at the Kings County headquarters last Saturday in which many of the local leaders of the party took part. This recognition of the Negro voters, tardy though it may be is nevertheless as encourage as it is deserved. Incidentally a South Carolina correspondent seeks to absolve Committeeman Lolbert of that State from the charge of "hilywhiteism" in the contest over convention delegates.

The Montgomery Advertiser which carries at the head of its editorial columns the slogan, "For President Oscar W.

It complained that the country can deal to the suffering of the Southern cotton planter, but the government step-by-step when the one crop farmer at the West begins his vault it proceeded.
We the South have risen, present again the system of harring the South from the Presidency.

The South had a Southern man for President, all intent and purposes so long as the late W. Wilson held the office but had little of a Southern man as a matter of Agriculture. In sure he had a reputation on the levy as Firstmaster Lance who managed to put the department out of gear some extent. His secretary of the Navy in North Carolina reformed that branch of the service to such a
degree, that his memory is execrated by the average gob. His two Secretaries of the Treasury, one a former Georgian and the other a Virginian, left a more creditable record, so far as it has been revealed. What the Advertiser really aims at is not only a Southern man for President but a Southern man for every cabinet position.
It is barely conceivable that a man from the South might, under certain circumstances, become a fitting candidate for the Presidency. But he would have to be a bigger and better man than any who has yet appeared on the political screen. He must be big enough to convince the South of the error of its ways, both economic and political, in its treatment of the Negro. A few Southern politicians, like the present governor of Mississippi, have been big enough to tell these truths to their constituents, but they have not succeeded in convincing them. The suffering of the cotton planter, like that of the wheat grower, has been brought about largely by his adherence to the single crop system. Diversified farming and a fair deal for his labor or tenant farmers would help solve his problem, without any governmental intervention.
What the South needs, as Frank Tannenbaum, put it, in his recent study of "Darker Phases of the South," is to stop being afraid of the Negro. And we might add, to learn to treat him as a human being
PLAYING THE "NUMBERS."
The gambling instinct which in former days found popular expression in buying lottery tickets or playing policy, has found a new medium in various sections of New York, in the practice of "playing the numbers," as it is styled. The drawing of the lucky numbers winning a prize is determined by the figures of the clearing house statement published each day in the newspapers. The placing of bets on these numbers is done through agents, known as "runners," who are to be found at convenient localities ready to receive the bets of the eager gamblers.
This game of chance is financed by certain backers, who furnish the capital required to pay off the winners. The payment of the winners is made by the same runners who receive the bets. The backers of the game are conspicuous by their appearance in costly motor cars, which testifies to the paying character of the game so far as the returns to its prompters are concerned. While many of the sums ventured are small in amount, the players who follow the game steadily manage to part with a large part of their earnings in their efforts to woo fickle fortune and make a killing.
Playing the "numbers" is fully as demoralizing as the old game of policy was in its palmiest days, before it was finally stamped out through the efforts of such men as the late Captain F Norton Goddard, who devoted his time and money to putting the policy kings out of business. The conviction and imprisonment of Al Adams, the last of the policy kings, was the final blow that killed policy in this town. The inception and growth of this numbers craze, however, bids fair to revive the evil in another form.
So strong is the gambling mania that cases are reported where men and women take the money needed for the actual necessities of life to "play the numbers." Money laid aside to meet the rent or to buy groceries is hazarded on the risk of the lucky number appearing in the next day's financial columns. Children are deprived of the shoes and stockings needed to equip them for going to school, because the parents have a hunch that a certain number will appear.
In the meantime the backers of the game gather in the bets accumulated by their runners who get a commission of twenty per cent on their collections. The former ride around in their high priced motor cars and indulge in the luxuries made possible by the hard earned pennies of their credulous victims.
So strong is the gambling craze among these players of the game that there is no way to break them of the habit of risking the money they cannot afford to lose, except to make the collection of bets so difficult as to break up the business. "Playing the numbers out and out gambling just like selling lottery tickets or police ship. The power of the law can be invoked against it the same as against other forms of gambling.
A rigorous campaign against the runners and the backers of the game would soon put them out of business. It so strongly entrenched a policy magnate as Al Adams could be sent to the pentenary for hacking the police game it should not be impossible for the authorities to break up the gambling game of numbers. There is need for continuous detective work on the port of the police department together with effective cooperation by the city magistrate in getting after the backers of the game of stealing the pennies of the poor.
The ministers and the clerks might try the effect of a missionary drive against the gambling evil as it is manifested in this craze.
Incredible as it may appear, Editor W. T. Andrews of the Baltimore Herold and Commonwealth, seems to regard with equanimity the mention of Barron Slemp as successor, to John T Adams for chairman of the National Republican Committee. He said.
All reports agree that as Secretary to the President his attitude and spirit towards those of the race who have sought the Executive's ear or Mr. Slemp's own presence have been hate and friendly. And judging him from his acts since he became Secretary, Negro Republicans have nothing to fear from him as National Chairman or as functioning in any other position in the party. Indeed the time has come when Negroes need not fear any man or party.
In view of Mr Slemps past record as a Virginia "lilywhite" it should, require more than a gladhand and a beaming smile to wipe out his past performances. The national chairman should be a man fully prepared to carry out the regulation against "lilywhiteism" adopted by the committee in 1920
Discussing the inconsistency of the attitude of the so-called "lilywhite" Republicans, the Mobile Weekly Press said:
Some of the same "lilywhites" who are seeking to drive the Negro out of politics in Alabama are today living on what their fore-fathers earned as federal office-holders in the early eighties—and they were put in office by the Negro voter or because of their affiliation with Negroes during Reconstruction days.
If our forefathers in their ignorant state, were good enough to stand hand and hand with the white man in 1872 and make the Republican party felt throughout this Southland, how much more prepared are we today to stand hand and hand with real blue blooded white men and fight for the Republican principles in the South. The trouble is that too many of the white Republican leaders in the South today differ from the Democrats in name only Southern Lilywhites and Bourbons agree in one thing they want to bar the black voter from party councils and representation in conventions as well as at the ballot box.
The defeat of Senator McCormick for renomination in Illinois was attributed by a Chicago correspondent to the fear of increasing the power of the Chicago Tribune his newspaper organ. This correspondent said
Deneen, twice governor twice states attorney of Cook county and out of public office since 1921 was the only man to believe the masses of their fear of what the Tribune might do if power were given to Taylor the Negro candidate, depended upon to oust Madden from Congress was defeated 11,000 to 6,000. It is believed Taylor lost his own battle aided and abetted by incompetent campaign mappers. He is credited with killing himself when during the last three days of the campaign he had published a fake picture purported to be a mass meeting in his home. The crowd was actually that which attended the W A Fashion show. He later put on the streets a huge van bearing the life size and life like figures of Negroes being burned and burned. This was driven around until police stopped it and arrested Taylor. An arrest would not save for Taylor he young him to be in jail.
Chicago was noted for unique campaign methods and exciting election contests, but the latest primary seems to have broken the record. Four Negroes were nominated for the legislature and one for the State senate besides one for judge of the municipal court.
Another evidence of secular interest in religious matters was furnished by an editorial in the Birmingham Reporter under the heading "What Will the General Conference Do?" It said
We boast much of our progress progress we have had, greater progress can be made. New conditions demand new laws. The people will not be long contenting our vessels. The minister in our country must be one more independent The asmen of the various churches must see that he must be privileged to see that he must be given right and liberties which he can call to him, not which dormant but good and safe, asmen that the hurry through his ministers are not independent. The leader is that he is to be found in the position in the community doubled one. The leader is that he is to be independent. This leader is that he is to be paid for the man he he paid a sufficient amount beyond the ordained and for a period of life that he has we are keen to above poor and desperate cases where he was not the gene of a body he became a great man in politics in the church. He is able and the situation really then and he must be forgotten and arms given to success. He must be with that common sense and less fear that we awake the marsh and the estuary.

"The manager in charge was very enthusiastic," writes Mr Bagnall, "and invited me to broadcast whenever I visited Minneapolis. I have had already several telephone messages from whites in Minneapolis who heard, and comments from colored people who listened in."
After the extensive newspaper advertising campaign of last year against lynching, the use of the radio was the next logical step. Every modern device should be employed to push the work of this organization

Atty. Frederick Defends Jos. W. Tolbert Against Charge of "Lilywhiteism"
First of all, let me congratulate you for your vigilance—ever on the alert and ready to combat these things inconsistent with real Americanism justice and fair play. In accordance with that characteristic the last two issues of your excellent paper has been full of hot shots for "Lilywhitesmith," one of the ughest monsters that has obtruded itself in American politics. It is a source of regret, however, that you did not really inform yourself of conditions in South Carolina before assigning Joseph W. Tolbert, Republican National Committee-man for this State to the ranks of the disreputable "Lilywhites." Instead of being a lilywhite, no man has touched this monster harder than this same Joseph W. Tolbert, in which flight, if personal reference may be pardoned, I may say that I have been of some little assistance.
In your last issue you say When the real Republicans elect men or the choice is in the South Carolina case, not pleasing the lie is he a "pump connection" and elects a feature of his own. Now, in the instance you refer to what are the FACTS?
general conference. The editor continued:
These delegation meetings have not assumed to be sectional general conferences as he insinuates. Barring me they did not endorse candidates a few indictors. In New York, R. R. Charlotte and Montgomery, they issued issues and endorsed a few views endorsements are not to throw General Conference, but to memorize it. They are to enlighten the body clarify and to give premeditation articulation for the issues from sections, so that we will not meet general Conference wholly at sea and extemporaneous in every matter. We think it a good omen that there much interest shown in our cause.
The bishops in the General Conference have no rights which the delegates do not have except to preside or sessions? In an annual conference the bishop should not prohibit the vote from sending up a memorial to the General Conference. But if it is there and delegations meet with unlegitified brethren, and discuss form matters as they see them the common good, to be recommender the general lawmaking body, what man has a right to say to them, Navarro by edict, irony or innuendo?
The point raised by Editor Wain seems to be well taken. Intelligence on the part of delegates to general conference will prepare them better to fulfill their duties
I am not writing this article as a champion of Joseph W. Tolbert simply to keep the record straight and keep South Carolina from being placed in the same column with Arkansas, which, if its record of four years ago is remembered, is rotten

Fighting Lilywhites In Old North State Before Nat'l Com'tec
Reproduced from files of The New York Agz June 12, 1920.
Chicago Ill—One of the most interesting developments of the preconvention proceedings came about in the hearing of the contest of the North Carolina colored men against lily-white delegates. The lily-whites were seated but the National Committee through action forced by Senate Charles B Warren of Michigan went on record as being opposed to the practice of excluding Negroes from the state conventions held in southern states.
When the North Carolina case was heard Prof Charles H Moore of Greensboro was the only colored contest present. He had managed to reach the city about an hour earlier. He was given fifteen minutes by Chairman Hayes in which to present his side of the case, and did so most effectively though not effective enough to gain a seat. Mr Moore was one of the contesting delegates at large from his state. In closing his appeal to the National Committee Mr Moore declared.

as was a great honor joked up in her to carry this message, the first after his resurrection, back to his disciples, but many does not stop to question Jesus out goes on her way to tell the disciples what she had seen, and to tell them that they are to meet Jesus in justice, one carries out her mission. Then the same day at even can Jesus in the room wutere His disciples were. The disciples were very good to see their Lord, Jesus bestows his blessing upon them. But Thomas who was not with them when the Lord appeared unto them counted. You see he had just grounds for his doubt as he hau seen them crucify Jesus had heard his last words, "It is mismahed." Insecure he could not see how He could be alive. Thomas saith unto them, "except I shall see in His Manus the print of the nails, and put my nigger into the print of the man, and trust my hand into His side, I will not believe. This God, Jesus Christ, heard Thomas when he made this statement. And eight days, according to the scriptures, he appeared in the room again unto the disciples. Thomas was with them this time. At first Jesus said unto them, "Peace be unto you." Then He goes straight over to Thomas and says, "Reach hither thy anger and behold M, hands, and reach hither thy hands and thrust it into My side, and be not faithless, but believing." Then it was that Thomas made one great declaration. My Lord and my God." Jesus is God or this world. He is Lord of Lords and King of Kings. May your prayer, believers in God, be "My Lord and my God, now I believe." It means that you will be alive in Jesus your Lord and your God. My Lord and God, who hears our very utterance, will when He comes give us a body, an immortal body like unto His own, and we shall live to dwell with Him eternally.
The Sunday-school was opened at the usual hour by Supt Hogans and a very interesting lesson study was reviewed. The Literary Society convened at 4.30. Mrs. Martha Sherman had charge of the program.

St. James Presbyterian.
The congregation at St. James Presbyterian Church, 137th street near Lenox avenue, were of Easter size all day last Sunday. They were distinctly spiritual as well as inspiring. The large congregations testified to the fervor and one of the evangelistic spirit which is still running high in the church. Two members joined the church and two infants were baptized at the close of the sermon. Dr. Hyder preached from the text, Acts 5:31. The sermon consisted of a theological exhibition of the chief function of the office work of the Holy Spirit, which is to forgive and restore men to the favor of God and guide them in the service of Christ. Jesus Christ purchased the office work of the Holy Spirit by his death for sinners. His resurrection was a tangible proof that God has accepted His intercession for sinners and as stated in the text God has exalted Jesus at His Right Hand for the express purpose of graming forgiveness and remission of sins to men.
The Progressive Circle gave their annual program Monday night to a crowded house. Dr. Hyders Wednesday evening lectures are attracting large audiences. These lectures are delusional and therefore helpful as sources of information.
The pastor has been requested to deliver a sermon next Sunday morning on the subject of growing in grace. This sermon will define growth according to scientific laws in the vegetable and animal kingdom and its spiritual analogy in the domain of thought. Baptism and communion will be celebrated at 8 p.m.

Harm to land, larger than there
must be a greater Mother Zon. Every
day battles are to be fought. We
marth forward, be brave, soldiers or
will wear the Ephesian retreat. This
world is one great battle held with
torches and arrows. Satan is the great
enemy of the soul. The set of your
fight must be forward. God has
graciously supplied us with the armour,
christian education, holy example,
means of grace, power and capacity
for service, teaching of the Word.
an adchor of the soul amidst the storm of
life, theurgies of conscience and the
drawings of the Holy Spirit. Those
and more are quia. Will we be good
soldiers or will we retreat? We can
not turn back. Remember the fate of
these Ephriamists—a people nobly
born, well armed and pledged to
service, yet when the hour comes, they
comes, they retreat with dishonor to
Christ, with discouragement to the
church, with loss to the kingdom, with
triumph for the foe, and with ruin for
themselves.

PANAMA JOE GANS
K. O.'S JOE PALMER;
JACK MCVEY WINS
Panama Joe Gans, colored welterweight champion, scored a knockout over Jack Palmer of Philadelphia in the ninth round of the star twelve round bout at the Commonwealth on Saturday night, April 26. Gans was fighting the first time since a severe attack of pneumonia, but he showed no bad effects from his recent illness. Palmer started out rough and gave the colored champion as much punishment as he possibly could in the first two rounds. Gans's superior skill as a boxer finally put his younger opponent on the defensive and severe punishment was given Palmer during the seventh and eighth rounds.
Coming out of his corner in the ninth round, Gans landed a right to the pit of Palmer's stomach, which sent him down for the count. Palmer's manager and friends protested that the blow was low, but the referee refused to consider their claim. The weights were, Gans 152.3-4 pounds and Palmer 156
In the semi-final bout, also of twelve rounds, Jack McVey, former weltier weight champion of the National Guard, won the decision over Fred Archer of England. Although McVey appeared to be very much off form, he outpointed his opponent in every round. The colored fighter lacked his old agressiveness and seemed to have trouble with his wind. Most of the fans thought he should have scored a knockout. His weight was announced as 147 pounds and that of Archer as 151 1.4.
At the Hotel Dumas on March 15 a group of well known Harlemites met and organized the Twentieth Century Club, which proposes to put a basketball team on the local courts next season to be known as the Twentieth Century Girls. The team will have such well known stars on it as Cortine Mason, Lillian

There who did not secure a salary a total number of reserved seats will be the Carriage Shares. The nurse is entitled to the salary of W. 183d street at the corner of W. 183d street.

MCNICHOLS MAKING GOOD SHOWING IN BOY MAYOR'S RACE
Harlemites are showing increased interest in the campaign for election of Robert Alston McNichols of 126 West 139th street, Harlem's candidate for Boy Mayor of New York City in the contest in interest of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation by the New York World. During the past week, young McNichols vote reached 1044, and this total has been appreciably added to this week. Among the individuals and organizations casting votes for the Harlem candidate were The New York Age the Chicago Defender, Mrs Alice Reed Urban League, F P Norwood, War Veterans, Lincoln Theatre and others.
Sponsored by Mrs Hester Arber, an intensive effort is being made to secure active cooperation from churches, social and traitional bodies, and the welfare organizations of the communities in support of McNichols. Such cooperation is being exhibited in support of the many white boys who are candidates for arbor groups with which they are affectionate and the one representative of the Negro race deserves the united consideration of Harlemites.
