Tenants Must Pay Their Rent Or Be Put Out In The Cold
Five Days Allowed Tenants To Move Out. Many Are Being Evicted
Judge Jacquie Marks in the Seventh District Municipal Court, 320 West 125th street, in hearing dispositions cases this week, gave tenants the understaffing a tenant remains on a landlord's appraisal of tenant must pay the landlord the rent赦 upon when he took possession. . . . Hudneds of cases are tried daily in which landlords are taking action to oust tenants for not paying rent and many tenants are taking action to force landlords to put their apartment better condition. The Judge has tenants in numerous cases that it is not in his power to give tenants permission to refuse to pay rent until their apartments are put in good condition, but it its their privilege to inform the Board of Health of any unsanitary condition of the premises; or notify the house is badly in need of repair, the house is badly in need of repair, and that department will put a violation on the house and see to it that the landlord makes the necessary repairs or put a fine on him. In the meantime the tenant must continue to pay his rent by depositing the money in the court and then the landlord cannot be ordered until the house has been approved of as being in proper condition. . . . There have been numerous disputes between tenants and landlords which almost led to blows outside in the lobby of the court after trial, in cases where tenants who were brought to the court by paying rent were ordered to pay rent, move out on an order of the court.
There is no rent law, providing for the 'judge to reduce rent or order minor repairs, and the most that the magistrate can do after landlords have prove, that tenants owe back rent is to grant permission to put the tenant but in the window, or allow the tenant, five days, to move.

Burglaries took advantage of matinee hours, Thursday, January 21 to invade the apartments of Mrs. Francis Minnifield and Robert Walker, fourth floor, 108 West $128 street, and escaped with clothing and jewelry valued at $300, taken by the apartment. They forced an entrance by removing the moulding and taking out the plate glass panel in the hall door and inserting the hand, o open the door. After the front door was opened, the burglar put back the glass panel in the outer door and locked themselves in the Walker apartment. As they ranched room by room they rented the doors of each room behind them as they left it, so as to prevent the tenants from surprising them by returning home and catching them before they could escape. In one room the burglaries took two dimes from a secret pocket in a little heart shaped souvenir. They entered the several rooms in the apartment by door and put the wooden panels in the doors and putting the arm through the opening and turning the knobs of the night latches. They were frustrated, in entering the apartment of Mrs. Minnifield when after they had sawed out the wood panel of the hall door and put in the arm to spring the night, the discovered old fashioned lock field the door fast and they did not have a pass key for it.
Prof. Carver Speaks At Utica Negro Conference
Utica, Miss. — The twentieth annual Utica Negro Farmer's Conference was held for two days this week. "A large number of farmers was present, and it proved to be one of the best conferences ever held here."
Principal Wm. H. Holtzclaw was reelected president for the 20th year, and made a notable address.
Among the notable speakers present was W. Carver, agricultural chemist from Tuskegee Institute, Ala. Dr Carver was—at his best. His subject was "Southern Possibilities." The general topic of discussion at the conference was "The Farmers' Problem and Its Possibilities."
Principal Holtzclaw and Dr. Carver are making a tour of Mississippi addressing great gatherings of farmers and business men of both races.
Garvey was also president of the Black Star Navigation Co., a subsidiary of the U. N. L. A., and it was in connection with the sale of stock in this company that the wife of coveted of U. S. M. Marion for a sensational trial that lasted many days in the Federal Court in New York City.
To Be Deported
But commuting of the sentence does not mean that Garvey will return to his New York puritor and resume his place in the coollight, as active agent of the State, with W.H.A. and auxiliary officers. He will be admitted to the West Virginia underable affect. The Department of Labor announces that a warrant for Garvey's deportation is to be approved by Assistant Secretary of Labor W. W. Husband and issued on Saturday, January 30, to be put into effect as soon as President Coolidge grants its executive discretion. If the warrant will be held until such time, as the prison doors open for Garvey.
Garvey's friends declare that his present plight is due to persecution by personal and political enemies in Harlem, and that many of these are engaged in the effort to win commutation for him that he may be removed from the country, and so deprived of the prestige and power he now exercises, even from within the prison cell. Whatever may be the truth of this charge, it is pointed out that as an alien, convicted of an alleged crime within five years of his coming to the United States, denaturation will follow automatically Garvey's release from prison.

Mary Duncay Doublecrossed Him
The prince is telling the story, was greatly interested in the action of Duncay alerting that front time, to help him, by willingly paying for winning bounties and cessions from interfections. From the statement, secured by the Age, the man held up is employed by one of the Negro bankers. That he carries the money to the collectors when any of their customers make a hit.
He says he feels that Duncay distracted him in gratitude in that he provided protection and especially so for calling a uniformed policeman in the plot to carry out the ditsy work.
The man held up, whose name and address in possession of The Age, declares that he had made most of his deliveries and was enroute back uptown, when he was stopped by a police officer on 17th street and Seventh avenue, and accused of polio playing. Instead, however, of putting him under arrest, he was taken into a consoling walkway, and joined in a fight. Felking him, the officer and Dancy found only a little more than $10, and both became incensed. Fearing their anger, the man finally agreed to get to the police playground, come down and corner money. The trip went into a corner drug store and the employee tried to reach his employer, the telephone, but, because he was the limiter, the officer and Dancy strugged him to go at once and get more money, bringing it to them, asking him at the same time, what would happen to him and afterwards seen in that neighborhood.
Banker Wanted Cop's Number
When the banker was told of what insupposed, he inquired. If the patient's number, was not available, when told it, he immediately to get with another employee; to get the officer's badge number, at the same time declaring he would not pay another cent. He was told in this connection, while he was perfectly willing to make stated payments for protection at regular intervals he was tired of lions men being held in the street, so he settled of whatever cash they might be carrying. The banker even declared, it is reported, his willingness to take whose case the District Attorney investigation.
So back to the cop's puritus went the two employees. The one who had not been in contact with Daney and his police companion, slipped into interstate position and could obstruct the number, which he set down as being "11,577". This accomplished, he rejoined his fellow employee, and the two of them started away. But just at this stage the policeman caught up and started toward him, thinking evidently, that the fellow had brought the demanded money.
Jian Left In Taxicab
Jit-ter the two "numbers" men-did not wait the cop's arrival. A faint cab passing was halted, the two piloted in, and the chauffeur given orders to proceed immediately uptown. This appeared to have incensed the polite-

Coatutna - Discussaşa Cenklin
The letter from Corklin, a copy of which, was sent leader, Costuma by Heyd, was in reply to this, former letter. Under date of January 11, 1984, the county committee on the 18th, Mr. Costuma wrote a second letter to Chairman Hedt, which it lie forth some facts regarding Corklin and the colored associate named by Corklin and Costuma as a member of the county committee—George W. Harris. Mr. Costuma's second letter reads as follows:
Hon. Charles E. Hedt,
2. Riverside, New York, N. Y.
New York, N. Y.
My dear, Mr. Hedt
This morning, mail brought to me two communications; one, an invitation to attend a public hearing to lay out rufes and specify duties governing colored associate members in the Nineteenth and Twenty-first Congress, and communication from Deputy Attorney General Conklin which, from a statement contained therein, was sent at the-suggestion of members of your committee familiar with its contents.
Sent to Voting Residence
You will note, in the third paragraph of --Mr. Conklin's letter that he states his intention has been called to commit to a secretary-did not send Mr. Conklin's copy of my letter to Red: Bank, N. J., but forwarded it to his living residence on Riveride Drive, which probably accounts for his not having received my
I am not surprised that Mr. Conklin does not know what I am talking about and neither am I surprised at the gross misstatements contained in his communication. Mr. Conklin is from the time he vided in the State Legislature against the 'bill giving to the people an expiration through the medium of the District Primary' his communication will afford considerable amusement. Surely it cannot be committed to use Mr. Conklin as their googhead to answer my charges of unwarranted meddling and interference.
A Debatable Statement
As of the following statement in Mr. Collins's letter is true your committee never would have been appointed for, if my understanding of this controversy is correct, the only position you can hold and the only countryside and women and men to make their own designations; and there should be no limitation placed upon their powers or duties. He says:
"In the 21st District we have locally sought to make this position one of substance and to extend to the act of making a statement of self government, AND TO PERMIT THE DESIGNATION TO BE MADE BY THE COLORED MEMBERS OF THE COUNTY COMMITTEE.
If this is true, then in what light to the county, chairman by the appointment of your committee? What is the motive?
Political Interests of Harris
good associate, George W. Harris. We will make no comment upon Mr. Harris' activities in the recent Primary, for he exercised a right which was organization. Mr. Cunningham also calls attention to the fact that Mr. Harris takes a real interest in the 'work of the Executive Committee, and I think it is well, in my opinion, an abstract from an editorial in Mr. Harris' paper, (issue of Saturday, January 9) and from which I think you will ask that there are other phases of his work. Mr. Harris is equally interested. (The reference is to Mayor J. Walker. As New York has been generous and a god-send to his late emigrant father and himself, he now has the great opportunity to reach out to his friends and to this great metropolis, and lifte them. The duty now devolves upon him to do it that in no way far exceeds the great accommodations in this city on account of his creed or color.
Advising the Mayor
The epoch making chance is his now to see to it that the loyal, law abiding citizens of color in this city are given equal representation, are made part and parcel of this city's government. It will not be enough for him to reappoint his governor, and the same comparatively few minor posts to obey Democrats.
He would do well to heed the advice of Commissioner Morton and appoint capable and conscientious colorado citizens to every branch of government. He would be administrative. He would lift the entire mass of colored people in this city if he should consult such of the colorado citizens as Healy Edwin Hooland, Joseph McCormick, Andrew Keating Sor such of their colored leitersians. We do no speak of he great political service he can render himself and his ability to manage a stable policy. He can build ten thousands of them to his political destiny with chains of steel by such a courageous and conscientious group as he could great, good that can do unnumbered thousands of plodding, patriotic citizens by such a course. We would remind Mayor Walker that more civic militia of good Americans would be heartened and lifted thereby.
Hak Had no Political Jab
In conclusion, I want to plead guilty to not having had the advantages of an intends early education. My parentage was poor, and I was forced to early school. I was forced to burden to provide a common school education for my listers and brothers; the public evening high schools afforded me the only other chance for study. This was my educational equipment. I have a business-world, far far far.
If you never held a political job, as you are aware, I have given the Republican Party twenty-eight years of experience in politics. I togather around me a strong military organization for the purpose of preaching Republicanism and think I can stand the abuse of any politician. I have experience in group organization, who are trying to continue to keep the colored vote of Harlem as their political foot-ball.
Yours very much

The third- to sixth annual Tuskegee Farmers' conference, held here Wednesday, January 27, with one of the largest rollouts in its history, adopted a formal declaration of principle, attached to which cooperation is the main farmer in connection with all the various evenings, with which he comes in contact;
ECLARATION OF THE THIRD
YEAR FIFTH ANNUAL TUSKEGEE
ARMER'S CONFERENCE, JAN.
JANuary 27th, 1926.
Anais Luskegee Farmers' Concern works in a common cause; to the south, where with sympathetic encouragement the majority of farmers will continue with routine work, whose citizens are whose ideals we cherish. Our records record among the richest ones since our organizations the following increased interest in land ownership, improvement in methods of farming, more attractive homes, larger production of food and fed crops better equipped school buildings, better prepared teachers, a more efficient workforce and an increasing appreciation of the value of good citizenship. We are grateful to our friends, where for their aid we make possible such progress.
We have taken counsel amping our interests today we have recounted our successes and continued the element of our farms and the compelling challenges we come to us.

There is a wider opportunity to buy land and divide ever before. The present method is to dispose of the land and to divide these lands into small farms. We are able to buy land. Form plantations and buy some of these plantations and then sell small tracts to other farmers. Last terms may be obtained. No one is so independent as he who owns the land he stands on. There is need of increased produce. A man who cat feed himself and build his neighbor, increase his own self respect and the respect of his entire community. We have several days the possibilities of farming. This provides a variety of product of season as well as in season and leads to better living.
Urge A Yearly Budget
The problem of financing farming operations is very important. The farmer must know what his crops and the probable market value are, even as a wise business man, a wide awake corporation that can easily budget, so must the farmer take a yearly farm budget. The farmer cannot hope to improve business in his farm life, through this set of methods. He must care to estimate the cost of all his farm operations. He must know that product may be exchanged readily, easily, and how to exchange these products. He must have opportunities to earn for his firm, and to make a profit of interest.
We are that our team keep in touch with the demonstration agents and that together they effect an organization for our operation busing and selling. A better quality and a higher rate may be bought when business does on large quantities. A better man may be selected for the market.

Jackson's Men Of Color In New Orleans Battle
(From Montgomery, Ala. Advertiser. Digging into musty records of the Battle of New Orleans, fought between the Americans and the British on January 1, 1815, one comes upon the story of an unexpected factor in that historic event—the gallant participation of General Jackson's "Men of Color." In the national crisis of 1814, with the State of Maine in British hands, the Capitol at Washington in asies, and alliments practically at an end, Governor Claiborne of Louisiana appealed to General Jackson to enlist Negro soldiers who in small numbers had given good account of themselves in the northern armies and with Commodores Perry and Macdonough.
"These men, sir," said Claiborne,
"for the most part sustain good characters. Many of them have extensive connections and much property to defend, and all seem attached to arms. * * * If we give them not our confidence the enemy will be encouraged to intrigue and corrupt them."
On September 21, 1814, Jackson followed this suggestion by issuing a spirited appeal to the free Negroes of Louisiana: "Through a mistaken policy," he said, "you have, herefore been deprived of participation in the glorious struggle for national rights in which our country is engaged. This no longer shall exist. As sons of freedom, you are, now, called upon to defend our most timestable blessing. As Americans, your country looks with confidence to her adopted children for a valorous support as a faithful return for the advantages enjoyed under her mild and equitable government. As fathers, husbands, and brothers, you are summoned to rally around the standard of the eagle, to defend all which is dear in existence. * * * In the sincerity of a soldier and the language of truth I address you." Those who enlisted were promised the same bounty as white soldiers and were to have Negro non-commissioned officers.
A month later the Louisiana legislature authorized the raising of two regiments of "men of color" by voluntary enlistment. The "men of color" rallied to the call and two battalions were enlisted, numbering 430 men. These were commanded by a white planter, La. Coste, and by Major Dajquin, and were stationed in Jackson's first line of defense, which wrought such havoc with the advancing British on January 8. How well they did their part was indicated in Jackson's address to the soldiers after the battle, in which he said:
"To the Men of Color-Soldiers! From the shores of Mobile I collected you to arms. I invited you to share in the perils and to divide the glory of your white countrymen. I expected much from you, for I was not uninformed of those qualities which must render you so formidable to an invading foe. I knew that you could endure hunger and thirst and at the hardships of war. I knew that you loved the land of your nativity and that, like ourselves, you had to defend all that is most dear to man. But you surpass my hopes. I have found in you, united to these, that noble enthusiasm which impels to great deeds." In his report of the battle to President Monroe, Jackson embodies an

GOOD CITIZENS AND MORAL ISSUES. Unusual attention has been directed to the Jackson Day address made by Governor Ritchie of Maryland, a few weeks ago at Chicago, because of the objections raised by several Democratic Representatives in Congress to the printing of his remarks in the Congressional Record. As Governor Ritchie is a Democrat of growing reputation, who has been hailed as available material for the presidential nomination of his party, interest in his views on vital questions is legitimate and justified among all thinking citizens. The division of the Democratic party into two wings, one supporting the presidential aspirations of Mr. McAdoo—and the other favoring Governor Smith of New York, has tended to bring Governor Ritchie to the front as the most available candidate to bring the warring factions together.
The objections raised toward giving his views circulation in the Congressional Record were based on his attitude toward Prohibition, which gave offence to Representative Blanton of Texas and other dry members from the South. Despite these objections, Governor Ritchie's speech was finally allowed to be printed as part of the Record and will undoubtedly be circulated throughout the country. The part of the speech that irritated the official sponsors for Prohibition was quoted as follows
"Until the sentiment of the country enables a change in the Fifteenth Amendment, the subject should be turned back by Congress to the States, and each State, within constitutional limitation, gives the right and responsibility of settling it in accordance with the will of its own people.
"So long as it exists, it should of course be upheld and respected, but just as good citizens in the South feel that refusal to obey the Fifteenth Amendment involves no moral issue and is no violation of their individual conscience, so do many feel about the Eighteenth Amendment."
Transcending in importance Governor Ritchie's views on the subject of prohibition is his acceptance of the nullification of the Fifteenth Amendment as the act of good citizens in the South who feel that no moral issue is thereby involved. This amendment declares that the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States, or by any State, "on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude." It deals with the subject of human rights, and while it may be construed as affecting only the rights of Negroes, approximately one-tenth of our population, it really affects every citizen of the country. The denial of the franchise to the Negroes of the South gives that section an undue advantage in representation in Congress and in legislation. The enforcement of the Fifteenth Amendment is of far more vital importance to the nation than the Eighteenth, if one is to judge by the issues involved.
And yet the complacency with which both Republicans and Democrats have regarded the virtual nullification of the Fifteenth gives point to the brutal frankness of Governor Kitchens conclusion that good citizens feel that no moral issue is involved in so doing. The exercise of the franchise is the highest privilege of citizenship. Without the right to cast his vote and have it counted a citizen is robbed of his only protection and title to citizenship under the law. No man or set of men who commit or connive at such robbery can truly be classed as good citizens. Custom may condone their evil practices, but the moral issue involved cannot be evaded without injury to the community and to the nation at large.
The moral issue involved in the nullification of the Fifteenth Amendment cannot always be evaded. This example has already been set up as a precedent for the nullification of the Eighteenth Amendment, thereby returning to vex the southern proponents of Prohibition. Governor Ritchie has perhaps unwittingly exposed the futility of the pretence of good citizenship, which violates the fundamental law of the land and sees no moral issue involved.
Let us have some more political candor on good citizenship and constitutional amendments.
LIBELING HARLEM SOCIETY.
Indiscriminate abuse, of the iniquities of the so-called "social set" in New York, or other large cities, cannot be indulged in without reflecting upon the innocent as well as the guilty. To say that there is such prevalent corruption in Huffman's social circles
as to enshak the "morality girl in her team" "the college youth" the young matron and the professional man is so drawn an indictment of our society that cannot be sustained by rigid prosecution.
The statement that few persons can keep their reputations intact, once they are admitted to what is known as "Harlan's best society," is too awakeing, an accusation to command any sort of credence. Such sweeping statements savor too much of muck-taking, prompted by either envy or malice. Granted that among the individuals that go to make up the aggregation known as the "socially elite," there may be a few who are deficient in manners and morals, that fact should not condemn others of the group.
The further charge that entrance to this group is not based upon character, but that professional gamblers, drunkards, women of questionable reputation are as readily admitted as anybody else, is incredible. People of this description may circulate on the fringes of society, as they have from time immemorial, but they are not in it nor of it. The author of these charges has the wrong idea of what constitutes "society," if he imagines it can be composed of such alien elements. He must have gathered his ideas of society from the heterogeneous groups gathered in some Harlem cabaret.
The real society of Harlem is composed of clean living and clean thinking people, some with brains and a capacity for hard work as well as for play in its proper place. Most of them are content to enjoy the relaxation of social intercourse, accompanied by their own wives, and are not chasers after strange women. The unmarried members may change their partners in the social whirl, until they become settled in the choice of one partner for life. If the occasional scandals that crop out now and then among what may be called "society people" are scrutinized, it will be found that they involve but a minority of those with any pretentions to real social standing.
Such attacks as we have referred to upon the morals of "Harlem's best society" are not only unwarranted but libelous. Calumny of this sort should have no place in newspapers published by the race. Decent criticism of racial failings is permissible and warranted under proper restrictions, but such gross libel can only do harm. White critics of the race who argue that the Negro has a lower standard of morals than whites, are only too glad to read articles of this type that seem to confirm their views. At that their conclusion would still be wrong.
A DYING MAN'S LIE REFUTED.
When Charles Clayton, a night watchman at a Glen Cove estate on Long Island, staggered to the lodgekeeper's home one night last October, with a bullet in his abdomen, his last utterance before he died was "A Negro shot me." Last week the Nassau county police arrested Harold Davidson, white, twenty-two years old, also of Glen Cove, who confessed to the detectives that he had killed Clayton, a close friend of his father, during an attempted hold-up. The detectives had their attention turned to Davidson in connection with the crime, when a gate crossing watchman told of seeing him with Clayton previous to the shooting.
The county police, according to newspaper accounts, believe that Clayton, knowing that he was dying, said that he had been shot by a Negro in order to "cover up" the son of his friend. Evidently he haq no thought of the jeopardy in which his dying lie would involve those black men whom the police hastily arrested on suspicion, but who were released for lack of any incriminating evidence. The fact that the orderly processes of the law obtain in Nassau county prevented the institution of lynch law, in default of any real evidence in the case of these few blacks apprehended in the vicinity of the shooting.
While the police are content to accept the lie as the natural effort to cover up a crime, the utterance of so false a statement on the verge of the grave wholly negatives the generally accepted idea that an ante-mortem statement by an individual with the knowledge that death is near, is entitled to more than ordinary credit on that account. Evidently Clayton could lie as coolly and thoroughly in the face of death as at any other time. Whether he was an exception to the general run of humanity in this regard or not is a question. The newspaper accounts of the affair described him as a six-foot exmarine, and former guard on J. P. Morgan's place. He was forty-two years of age and had no doubt graduated from a hard school of experience which left little room for sympathy or imagination. The dying man probably neither thought nor cared that his effort to shield his friend's son might cause some friendless black man to pay the penalty for a crime of which he was guiltless.
This incident should give students of criminal jurisprudence cause to readjust their values as to the weight to be given ante-mortem statements in submitting them to a jury as evidence. It may even be affirmed that a man who is indifferent to truth as an abstract proposition, may lie as calmly in the face of death, as in the prospect of living to rue the day when he told the truth.
CHURCHMEN AND THE COURTS
Bron Montgomery, Al., last week came the news that Ira J. Bryant, secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, is suing Bishop Fountain, one of the heads of the same religious denomination, for the payment of two thousand dollars, alleged to be owing for the printing of conference minutes. This suit is said to mark the climax of a fight between Bryant and Bishop Fountain, in which the Sunday School secretary, has made serious charges reflecting upon the Bishop's financial integrity.
Nearer home, in the adjoining borough of Brooklyn, a few weeks ago we had the spectacle of two groups of the same church resorting to the civil courts to decide which is entitled to the use of the church name and the possession of its property. This controversy has involved the past and present pastors, the presiding elder and the bishop of the district, and charges of "imprudence of administration," and other ecclesiastical wrongdoing, have been flying thick and fast. We have also had other ministerial misfits, who are always at odds with their congregations, rushing into courts with sufficers for libel which they cannot substantiate, as the stories printed about their misconduct are inmost cases susceptible of proof.
The ready resort to the courts to settle church troubles is not confined to any one denomination, nor is it the peculiar propensity of colored churchmen. On the contrary, we read of a historic church in Brooklyn, where it has been necessary to have a police guardian to preserve the peace, in holding a business meeting of the congregation to settle differences between pastor and his trustees. But the prevalence of this acrimonious spirit of litigation among the professors of religion does not render it becoming or appropriate in the light of their professions.
The true Christian, whether he be bishop or plain pastor of a flock, head of a church department or simple layman, should avoid quarrels and recriminations which can only be settled by resort to the courts. If the differences are those of individual opinion or judgment, friendly arbitration should bring about an equitable adjustment without the loss of dignity to either party. The carrying of such differences into the courts and the newspapers only tends to discredit the church and its followers in the eyes of the world at large. Churchmen who are really imbued with the true spirit of Christianity, should get together and compose their differences before they grow too wide apart. Churchmen should keep out of the courts as much as possible and avoid calling for outside aid in settling their differences.
The laudering of soiled ecclesiastical linen may be a necessary operation, but it need not be made a public ceremonial, for then it becomes a sorry spectacle.
SENATOR REED ON ANTI-LYNCHING
BILL.
Anti-lynching legislation found a new ally in the United States Senate last week, when Senator James E. Reed of Missouri threatened his Democratic colleagues from the South with a resort to cloture in order to bring about a vote on such measure. This was by way of retaliation against those southern senators who signed a petition for cloture in order to stop filibustering against the proposition that the United States enter the World Court. Senator Reed is bitterly opposed to the participation of this nation in the World Court, as well as in the League of Nations, being one of the few Democratic Senators to oppose President Wilson on that issue.
His threat to support cloture on the subject of Federal legislation against lynching is merely a measure of his bitterness in composition to the World Court. Nevertheless it shows a determination that the Republican Senators might well profit by in pushing the Dyer bill or similar measures. The Republican majority permitted the Dyer bill to fail at a previous session because of the threat of a filibuster by the Democratic minority, despite the fact that anti-lynching legislation formed a plank in the Republican platform, had been recommended by a Republican President and passed by the House of Representatives. If cloture was ever warranted by the demands of party principles, it was in this case. Cloture is the parliamentary method by which the endless debate of the Senate may be limited and a vote brought about by the question. Otherwise, by filibustering, those opposed to the measure may prevent a vote by consuming the session in irrelevant speeches or the reading of volumes of extraneous matter into the record.
Senator Reed's arrangement of his Democratic colleagues is worth reproducing, as an example of the inconsistency of legislators in dealing with weighty questions. He was quoted by the staff correspondent of the New York World as follows
"I'm looking at some Southern Senators whose very freedom was preserved by the full right of debate, and when a minority party will help to prepare a motto to choke itself to death they are a very twiste and unjust thing. Here is a question that invites a complete change in our foreign policy. I am making threats but if this gag rule is applied here as long as I am in the Senate I'll help apply it in other matters."
The Age Readers' Forum
"If these States raise away from the forcebill, want now to put it away on men and those standing with men they may have the power to do it, but it ought to be applied to the question. They will have no right to condemn it if the precedent is followed." This should prove a valuable precedent for the Republicans in the Senate, if they have the courage and the determination to use it. Senator Reed undoubtedly can show them how to do it, unless he recants, as is quite likely.
USING TERM "NEGRO."
Ex-Alderman George W. Harris appears to be mystified as to his ethnic status. Time and again in his newspaper, he has sought to glorify the "New Negro" (whatever that means) but now the term "Negro" nauseates him. His abhorrence of its frequent usage has moved him to righteous indignation. He is hysterical because our leading schools and organizations see fit "to popularize the use of the word 'Negro' morning, noon and night."
The ex-alderman is really all "het up," and he reasons and talks as most people do under stress and excitement. Says he: "The term to-day connotes slave and inferior distinct different and permanent in the minds of the American people. They are mad who think that in a few short generations that they can lend dignity and decency to the word in the minds of the masses of white people."
Nowadays the phrase "inferiority complex" is very much overworked, yet it accurately describes the case of the ex-alderman. His trouble is that he is reflecting his own sentiments not the masses of white people. If in little more than half a century the race has not given dignity and decency to the term, then statements that the Negro has made more progress since Emancipation than any other race in a similar period must be untrue. The fact that "Negro" centuries ago was derived from "Niger" and used by the Spaniards as meaning "black," has nothing to do with a present-day condition in America where the term does not specifically mean "black" but is an ethnological classification for a group of Negroids ranging from white with blue eyes and blond hair, various shades of brown to black. This group must have some distinguishing racial appellation as have other races.
To refer to members of our group as "colored" means nothing, no more than when reference is made to a "white" person. We certainly have no copyright on the term "colored" no more than the Chinese. Japanese, East Indians, American Indians, Malays, Filipinos and other colored peoples.
Would the ex-alderman speak of the only distinctive music given to America as "colored music"? Would he add to his vocabulary such phrases as "colored history" and "colored literature?" Negro leaders have differed in the past, as they do in the present, as to the best methods of effectively combating race prejudice. But it has been significant that they have been of one mind on the question of the group having a distinguishing racial designation. And it has been "Negro."
Hayes and Segregation
Hayes and Segregation
Editor of The New York App
E. In those of us without flaw throw stones at Roland Hayes and see if we can hit the mark. It is a waste of time for those who stay awake at night shaping up denunciations to be hurled at Hayes during his tour about the United States giving concerts under white management. I fail to see any race under our jurisdiction working for segregation than the Negro himself.
Visit any city and take a survey of the population. You will find all other nationalities grouped together except the Negro. He is scattered all over in most cities and that is where he loses his political status. You wonder why our political realization is so weak. His answer is that your strength is not consolidated sufficiently to help your brother.
Roland Hayes has a living to make and he has to make that living while the opportunity is his. We must have money in order to show our independence, and if the white promoter is not there, we will have so many concerts at so much for each concert—those who are dissatisfied should come forward and bid in
Recent attempts to delgrand life insurance companies in St. Louis provoked the following comment by the St. Louis Argus:
Two cases have been recently reported in St. Louis, where Negroes have been playing the parts of dead men to collect insurance. Such action has caused a deal of speculation and comment by the people generally. Some have even said that it was positive proof that the colored people are getting more like white people every day.
One of the companies involved is the Liberty Life Insurance Company, which is prosecuting the supposed "dead" man and a local updresser who conducted the alleged funeral. If the facts are as stated, it simply shows that crooks are to be found among both races, which nobody has denied.
The Louisville Leader took issue with the Chicago Whip as to the dire consequences predicted because the basketball team of Central High School, Louisville, went to Chicago to play the team of Wendell Phillips High School. The Leader said:
The article in question was more a waste of space; it was a silly and ugly use of it.
It is hard to see how The Whip expects Wendell Phillips to confine its playing to teams other than all colored teams and yet expects such teams to play Wendell Phillips, necessarily an all color team, for the team to be for one team to play another, without any thought of color. That would be democratic and sensible.
It is up to the Whip to explain how Wendell Phillips by playing teams of its own composition and complexion will eventually become Jim Crow. There is such a thing as gagging at a gnat and swallowing a camel. This the brainy Whip is doing; for there are conditions totally unaccented for in Chicago with the objection that Phillis is familiar conditions more likely to lead to Jim Crow and segregation than the importation into the Windy city of a real good "all colored" basket ball team.
Wendell Phillips and the good citizens of Chicago are to be complimented on their neighborliness, common sense and love of excellent sport as demonstrated by the recent game between the crack basket ball teams of Illinois and Kentucky.
This statement of the case carries the stamp of true sportsmanship and common sense.
Cleveland's opportunities for the earnest and ambitious were heralded to an anxious world by the Cleveland Call in the following strains:
To all people Cleveland offers a wonderful opportunity for the pursuit of true happiness, but especially to us. We have so FEMINIST business enterprises when we should have many. We have the people to support them, when they come into existence. The people who are willing to work and sacrifice, there is the opportunity of "growing up" with the community. To those persons who have money, the opportunity for profitable investment are practically unlimited, both as to established institutions and new ventures. Cleveland presents in this special "grow up" field. To persons of quality or of means or both, the Cleveland business world extends a cordial invitation to come here and "grow as Cleveland grows."
As an example of community boosting carefully restrained, with the limits of prudence and sanity, this is to be commended. The qualities pronounced necessary to success in Cleveland would probably bring that result in any other live community.
The Pacific Defender of Los Angeles made the following announcement in its news columns:
The Supreme Executive Council of the American Woodmen' a fraternal insurance society with headquarters in Denver, Colorado, has elected B. H. Graham of Los Angeles; and supervisor in the State of California, editorial writer for the Woodmen' s Banner, the official publication for the organization. Mr. Graham is considered an authority on fraternal insurance and his writings in the Banner will be of interest to nearly one hundred thousand members of the Order in the United States.
This is not Mr. Graham' s first essay in Journalism, as besides teaching in a high school at Paris, Tex., he was editor of a weekly newspaper in that city. Under his leadership the American Woodmen are said to number more
his services, having him sing under his auspices. But I am afraid his singing efforts would not amount to much financially under such auspices. I will say, and no "maybe", that you will fail in supporting Hayes just as you fail in supporting race publicization. You will not subscribe to Negro papers for a year, and they won't pay $2 for a seat to hear Roland Haves sing. In my own town, I don't believe there were one hundred race representatives at his concert last February, but the admission fees would not cover the advertising costs. I suggest to those who are criticizing him not to be so sensitive. It is no disrespect to sit with your own people. You are Negroes just the same, whether your are sandwiched between white people or not. Other people sit together and are proud of it and we are just as good but no better.
R. Landlays constant effort to make himself the peer of all singers, and in this he is succeeding. But you are not helping him in any sense with this foolish complaint about where you are to sit, a matter which, after something which, after your own local problem, something which he has absolutely nothing to do. Instead of trying to make
than one thousand in Los Angeles.
Commenting on the conviction of a boy aged fourteen on a service charge in a Jefferson county court, the Birmingham Reporter asked:
Who is the criminal in the case?
Where is the responsibility? Should a thoughtless child be given 35 years in the penitentiary because Alabama is steeped in race prejudice, race hatred and political exarwangage? Should the parent of the child be given an education for his training? What should be purified? Negro, doing about the State of Alabama is providing about a fourth of what is necessary to educate the Negro boy and girl. The State of Alabama holds the Negro to strict account for every act committed, civil or criminal, in violation of the law. In fact the rule is applied strictly to the Negro that "ignorance of law excuses no man." The Negro is every sense of the word is a man when he is unfortunate enough to appear before the courts for trial; he is everything else that she, wise and powerful, choose to consider him out of the courts or if, arrayed against, another race
A plea was made for the guidance and education of the impoverished boys and girls, who make up the largest quota of our criminals. Society and the state should provide for their training and welfare.
Editor Harry C. Smith of the Gerrish and Gosnitz agrees with Don Seymour, former editor of the New York World, and says the latter is right in his charge that it is now a commercialized press in this country. Editor Smith added.
There are very few papers that are not being published with a view to making money and that about everything else. Even the race press has reached the point where nearly all of them are afraid to tell our people the truth at all times of war or of everything else (white or black), some church, judge or something else. The honest law, untramplified press, black and white, a gone forever, it seems. What a pity. The masses of people everywhere are the greatest sufferers, as a result
And yet the Cleveland Gazette, with Editor Smith at the helm, is proof that exceptions are to be found to this sweeping indictment.
Hayes your target, turn your gown on your own race-leaders and have them carry the fight to your local hall authorities and win a remedy for the complained of conditions.
If he has to face a dissatisfied audience it is impossible for him to sit his best and be better all around if you stayed at home.
Roland Hayes is selling his talent in a market that has not heretofore been opened to Negro artists, and he is paying the way for others; he is sufficiently developed to follow along the path he is blazing. Stop trying to knock him about something you should control yourself, and be sure that the has achieved a recognition from the critical critics here and abroad that places him on a level that knows neither race nor color.

Salem M. E. Church
The revival season has come to Salent Church and gone and in its wake are to be found a train of new hearts 'marching upwards to Zion.' From every angle it has been the greatest revival in the history of the church.
The closing day was marked with revival fervor, both in the pulpit and in the pews Dr F. A. Cullen, pastor, preached a drawing sermon in the morning, and Dr Joseph Waters added his strength in the evening.
"The Master Is Some And Calleth Hor Thee." Dr Cullen announced as his text "Jesus wants to get face to face with all your troubles and your sorrows" said he "The Master is here this morning as the judge of the quick and the dead inquiring 'how is it with your soul?'
Dr Waters is executive secretary of the Pension and Relief Fund of the Delaware Conference Using the words "For what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul" he preached a searching sermon, comparing the worth of the human soul with some things so highly esteemed by some people. Dr Cullen had a heart to heart talk with a group of men in the afternoon. It was the annual mens meeting always held during the revival month. W McKinley Woods sang Out of this meeting four young men were led to accept Christ as their personal Saviour. The choir which has been playing a big part right along in the revival added much to the day's worship by the anthems rendered. The morning selection was "Lift up your head, O ye gates" by J. L. Hopkins. At night they sang "Hark! Hark! My Soul" by Shelley, with Mimi Sadie (Greencide singing the principal solos
The officers of the Sunday school were installed at the night service. Mrs Porta Wiley Nickens was relected superintendent. An appeal was shade for a greater interest by the parents and for more workers to support the present staff. The educational department is making enrollments for the spring term so to begin. Outsiders as well as Salem members, are being registered for the classes in heading dressmaking and business subjects.
Calvary M. E. Church
The services at Calvary Church have been continually interesting this week and were just as successful as interesting. There was a wonderful series of sermons delivered through out the week culminating with the one by Dr Coggin on Sunday morning based on the d structure of Soul and Gomorrah on account of the wickedness of these two cities. Dr Coggin compared New York City with those ancient cities in which he showed that there exists here now some of the same type of wickedness as was extant in those cities in their day.
The term in the dictionary was specially delivered to the National Association of Beauty Cultivators. More ILLUSTRATED national president. Dr. Morgan praised the association for encouraging emphasizing the importance of beauty and clean living as well as the appearance of cleanness on the outside. Befit the Sunday school and Christian Indicator are growing by leap and bounce. The orchestra of the Sunday school is proving a great asset. A large collection was taken by the board. The Means Bible Class meets Sunday running at 9:30 o'clock.
Grace Congregation, Church
Crace Congregational Church and Holism is still making progress and it is taking its place in the community. The sermon last Sunday morning by the Rev. V. Garner pastor was presented in a pleasing way. The progress was liberal though entirely ethical. There was a touch of unrealism in his discussion that might not have pleased an extreme fundamentalist but to a far minded tenor it was unconventional. His text was Psalm 40 10. The right hand is full of righteousness. He analyzed the relation of religion and righteousness after defining the terms. He explained that religion was older than the bible but righteousness was an upgrowth of religion in the face of flaws. As a term the word to us means practically the same thing in all its broad languages, a taught or conforming to rule.

- Reindall Memorial Church
"And the twelve gates were twelve peals," Revelations 21:21. This was the subject upon which the pastor based his discourse on Sunday at the forenoon service. He discussed at length the twelve entrances to the "Holy City," saying that there are four gates to the North four to the South, four to the East and four to the West, thus affording all who will come, from all parts of the world, regardless of race, class, or location, a passage way to the Internal City within. However, he said, there is one requisite, a password as it were, necessary for the entrant to be in possession of, "Faith", and the fact of having dipped his robe in the blood of the Lamb, and lo! he will hear a welcome voice saying, "Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord."

pased our misused lives with old colon, saying that have, like them, must go back to the minting house and be requited in order to be of further service in the world, and that God is the "Master" minter and will take our old worn out bodies and misspent lives and make them fit for his service.

The Conference on personal evangelism for young people, held in the Marble Collegiate Church Wednesday night last, under auspices of the Times Square and Christie Lages of the Greater New York Federation of Churches, was attended by a large number of our people both from Sunday school and B N P U. Our young workers are alert to every opportunity that promises help to them in the solution of their religious problems. Dr Polling, associate pastor of the Marble Collegiate Church, and president of the great world association of suggestions about personal work in saving souls. We do not hold revival services during the month of January, but the revival spirit is in the church, notwithstanding this, as is evident from the prayers, testimonies songs, and accessions to the membership of the church from time to time.
Owing to the cold spell which gripped the city the latter part of the week, the Friday might prayer meeting was not as largely attended as usual but those who came enjoyed a spiritually refreshing time.
On Sunday morning early Deacon J A Doughtry had a large and enthusiastic gathering of people out to sunrise prayer service, and as a result, the spiritual atmosphere of the church was warm when the church and pastor appeared at 11 o'clock. Mrs H A Brooker who because of illness had been absent for the past two weeks was present to lead the church, and it rendered splendid service. The pastor preached on "The

Strong Man, Bound, and the people who joinwithstanding the cold, laid out out to the church, seemed to have been greatly helped by the message.
This Sunday school went into session immediately after the morning service, and, superintendent, Roberts, although just from the bedside of his dear mother, who is critically ill had his plans ready, and gave them to the teachers and officers.
In the evening both the choir and pastor were at their beat. The choir sang the spirituals so effectively that the people were moved to tears and shouts. The pastor preached on "The Expression of God's Love," and it was pronounced a masterpiece.
If you enjoy good preaching and delight to be in a warm spiritual atmosphere, come to the services of St. Paul. Next Sunday the pastor will preach three sermons, morning, afternoon and evening. In the afternoon he will preach on "Daniel In The Den Of Lions."
Union Baptist Church
Sunday morning, Rev. Huston Crutchfield delivered a wonderful sermon, subject "The Miracles of Jesus." Text: John 10-3. The text was well explained and the message was vividly outlined. This sermon met the spiritual needs of all who were present.
The Sunday school is continually growing. We have a staff of teachers who are interested in the work and who refine in teaching the word of God. The lesson was revived by the superintendent, W. H. Johnson.
The B Y P U has a very pleasing program, which was rendered by Miss Rhoda Jones.
Rev Crutchfield delivered the closing message for the day Subject Salvation Text, Isaiah 46-4. As we listened to this message, the fear of death left our minds as Rev Crutchfield described the reward of the faithful. His sermon was very instructive, inspiring and encouraging.
The offering amounted to $277 49
Rush Memorial Church
The Junior Church opened its services promptly at 10 o'clock. Dr. Oliver preached a very timely sermon based on a text found in Revelations 3:21, "The Door of the Heart." The preacher made a plea to the young people to accept Christ at an early age when there should be a possibility of their doing much good for the master for an extended period of time. Dr. Oliver in his sermon to the eleventh clock congregation selected a his text St Marks, 10 17. A Rich Young man." In his discourse a plain straightforward truth was driven home that it is not great material riches that will help us inherit eternal life but it is a life, consecrated to God, a change of heart not of circumstances, that will answer this rich young man's question as to what he must do to inherit eternal life. In the evening the pastor again preached a beautiful sermon 1 John 2: "Beloved now are we the sons of God," proving the love of God towards us and teaching brothers love among God's people.
Among the many visitors present last Sunday were Mr J W Brown of Mother Zoon Church and Mrs Marie Clinton, wife of our last Bishop Clinton and general superintendent of the Bucks of Promine Charlotte, N C Mrs Clinton made a short address mentioning briefly important moments in the life of the Bishop and emphasizing chiefly the relationship the older folk or the present church bears to the younger folk of the future church Mrs Clinton is deeply interested in the work of the young people and highly commended the pastor and people of Rush for the effort which they are making to lay the bridge between the two groups of individuals.
Next Sunday morning Dr Oliver will deliver a sermon of great importance to the pupils come out and hear him. The chair J W Wallers president will serve a dinner from 1 to 3. At 3.30 a grand musical treat will be offered to the Program consisting of yoga and a trimental numbers by leading local artists

Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church
Pastor Strachau brought the message to the Second Church last Saturday morning. His theme was "Grow In Grace." It was drawn from 2nd Peter 3:18.
Said the pastor; "The apostle Peter exhorts Christians to purpose each day they live, that with the help of God, they shall be better men and better women. The Bible compares the life with a growing plant. The moment a plant ceases to grow it dies. So with a Christian. There is no middle ground. He either grows better, or else he spiritually declines."
At the close of the Sabbath morning sermon Mother Yeadon assembled the baptismal class for its regular weekly study. Under the leadership of Sister Benjamin the prayer band met in its room for a season of devotion.
At 3 p.m. the young people's society met with Miss Mand Patterson presiding. At 4 p.m. the missionary society carried out its program under the direction of Brethren Wilkinson and Golson
Sunday night pastor Strachan again took the desk and chose for his theme, "The judgment"
Said he, "The judgment is the day that God issues His great glalnal balance sheet. It matters little how gross or how cultured one is, there fingers in his breast a peculiar dread of the approaching day. And well might this be, because that day is a day of the righteous import. The cases of the righteous dead and the righteous living will be considered first, then next in turn will come the wicked men and the fallen angels.
"Werapped in holy vision Daniel was permitted to behold the scene as it will be. The Heavenly Father was seated upon a Great White Throne, surrounded by a myriad of angels with their books of record. As the features of a man's countenance are reproduced with uncering accuracy upon the polished plate of the artist to the character was faithfully delineated in those books. Intensely filled all Heaven. The Saviour was there to plead in behalf of His people.
"The essential and primary work of the judgment is the blitting out of sins. Matthew 18:35 teaches clearly that forgiveness does not indicate that a man's sins are immediately blotted out from the Heavenly record books. He alone who perseveres to the end, and is a final overcomer, gets his sins blotted out in the time of the judgment.
"The judgement will be a day when God praises men as well as blaming them. Paul speaks of it as a time when every man shall have his praise from Jesus Christ. Each person who has horne uncomplainingly, each one who has stood nobly and bravely at a tremendous cost, each one whose sins shall be blotted out, and whose name shall be ordered retained in the Lamb's Fair Book of Life, shall cause the arches of Heaven to echo and reecho his praises upon the lips of Christ and the holy angels."
St. James Pres. Church
Sunday morning, January 24 the pastor Res. W. L. Innes, preached a wonderful sermon on the theme "The Impostibles of Men are the Possibles of God. We are called, said he to the followers of Christ and to believe that we can overcome the hard and difficult things in life through this power of God that makes all things possible. The sermon was full of splendid and helpful teachings and advice. Several persons united with the church
The Sunday church, the Brotherhood and the Christian Endeavor held their usual Sunday afternoon meeting.
The meeting guests were given over to Rev. W. Verity a speaker from the Lord's Day Alliance. Among many other good and timely things Rev. Verity said. That our civilization is hugged on the Bible, the Church and the observance of the Sabbath. That the keeping of the Sabbath holy was the cement that hold together our civilization.

Newark, N. J.
Newark, N.J.-A large and appreciative congregation gathered at the 13th Avenue Presbyterian Church for the 11th Lockroom service. Dr. Ellerson, pastor, preached.

Dr. Ellerson stressed the message that Christ gave, "If any man would be my disciple, let him dem himself and take up his cross and follow Me." A great many of us as Christians are not denying ourselves of anything for Christ, but are seeking all the joy that this world has to offer disregarding the fact that he so doing we are becoming stumbling-blocks in the paths of our brothers and sisters who are seeking the straight road to Christ. Little Philia Ladolia Chapman was christened at the morning service. At the evening hour was a popular evangelistic service.

How long shall helpness men hang on with crushed and broken hearts
While strong men stand star off on our cause?
Aim I to blame for having thoughts that tend toward better things?
That raise me to a higher mental plane?
Am I to blame if independence in my being rings
When human nature everywhere's the same?
Must I submit to insult or to wrong be ever blind
When love and hope within my bosom reign?
Am I less human—less a man, "by nature so designed?"
If so, these things I cherish but in vain.
O man so wise in thy conceit, so stately, grand and tall,
Thou art but grass—a weed—alas, but dust;
Creation's masterpiece, a paragon—and yet, withal
Thou art so false, so-faithless to thy trust.
So false in words; in actions false; to conscience so untrue,
So proud, and yet so narrow in thy soul.
You mock and scourge thy conscience 'till she flies away from you,
And then, Ohl then, remorse assumes control.
O Watchman on the Tower of Time, are there no other minds Like Lincoln, Grant, like Phillips, Garrison?
They had the moral strength to vindicate the tie that binds: They bravely fought—their cause was bravely won.
Where are such men as Douglass, Langston, Bruce, and many more Who came from lowest depths to lofty heights?
They saw a change was coming and with fortitude they bore Their burdens while they fought for human rights.
Can I forget the noble sons who fought and fell with Shaw Those fearless souls whose crimson gore was shed?
Can I forget Fort Pillow with its carnage and its awe? Who can forget the dying and the dead?
My heart goes out tooney, Then again I doubly thrill When I remember Crispus Attucks' fame:
Can I forget the colored boys who fought at San Juan Hill And saved this nation and her glorious name?
And now. O Watchman, warn us lest our greed for wealth and gold Devour the best that in us still remains
Oh, warn us, lest our spirits in exchange for trash be sold Or bartered with the world for foolish gains
Oh, warn this Great Republic, lest her mission she forget.
The rank and file and those who represent
For many be the tricks and snares that easily beset
And endure on the strongest government.
There is a great and glorious plan, conceived and born of love.
There is a shame that governs great and small
No power will nor hatred can celestial wisdom move—
The wisdom that it watching over us all.
There is a retribution coming back to men always
It is the law—a principle divine.
For every right, for every wrong in due time God repays
For "Vengeance," saith the Lord of Hosts, "is Mine"
Be brave, O Sons of Freedom, hounded, hunted through the years,
Thy life like that of Christ must prove the test,
The hour is always darkest just before the dawn appears,
So act thy part and God will do the rest.
TRADE TRAINING SCHOOLS CONSIDER THE REVISING OF PLANS OF INSTRUCTION TO ENABLE GRADUATES TO FIT IN INDUSTRY
T Arnold Hill director of the Department of Industrial Relations of the National Urban League, has returned to New York following a month's visit to twenty-one trade training schools in the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina Georgia and Alabama, where he conferred with the school presidents and directors of trade departments, concerning improvement in courses of studies to meet the new require-ments. Negro workers sought by industry. Mr Hill made this trip because of complaints coming from employers that many of the graduates of trade schools who were employed in skilled processes were not especially adapted to meet the present day demands made on workers of this type.
lunch with us either on Thursday or Friday and be shown through the offices thereafter.
The morning and afternoon sessions will be held in Harlem at the W Y (W A) Auditorium in West 17th street. An opening meeting at Wvssonian Church Wednesday evening at 10:00 a.m. will be addressed by J. K. Clark, will be addressed by J. K. Clark, will be addressed by J. K. Clark, president of the National Urban League, and Blanche Armwood Beatty, executive secretary) Tampa Urban League. The closing meeting will be a dinner conference at the Fifth Avenue Restaurant Friday evening, February 5, at 6:43 a.m. Delegates will register Wednesday morning at 10:00 a.m. W C A W 137th Street, and will be welcomed by Artling (Holden, chairman, and John F N. Nash, chairman, who will also preside at the morning session).
With the opportunities increasing for Negro workers, the Urban League turned to the trade schools to consider such revision of their curricula as would biter equip their graduates for these opportunities.
Mr Hill has issued the following statement: "It is the experience of the National Urban League and its branches in forty-two cities that whenever a competent workman has been obtained, employment can be found for him. On my recent visit to only one schools in the South, I found that the educators to all the suggestions I made relative to the opportunities they now have to train their students for these new industrial openings. In the past month of these schools have been training their workers for self-sustaining farm operation, thus enabling them to mend their farm implements and machinery, to build small rural homes and barns, and to meet the mechanical demands of rural town communities. But with the change in the tribal and occupational life of the Negro, it is necessary that the schools equip many of their students for a little different career."
"Many of the heads of schools will meet Thursday afternoon, February 4, at the Russell Sage Foundation Building, 130 Fast 22nd street, New York City, to confer at one of the sessions of the National Urban League Conference. With J. James E. Gregg, presiding and affiliated from the Keegan A and T College, Yoroka Industrial School, and many others, a new epoch probably will begin in the efforts to equip our men and women better for the new industrial age in which the Negro is entering."
OPPORTUNITIES FOR AMERICAN NEGROES IN LIBERIA
MARSHALS OF THE UNION. In a courtroom in New York, the Afro-American grandmother Trouble Courts in Liberia, it was noted that there are only four courthouses in the Black Republic. This civilization was a step out of the past, but this time leap forward. He narrates the figures as they went to day, Rikuldudu low, it seems to the American motorist, but consider the percentage of increase.
According to the best figures available, there were on January 1, 1925, less than ten cars and trucks; January 1, 1926, finds seventy-four an obvious increase of over 740 per cent.
The principal reason for this remarkable building campaign conducted by President King, A. the time when there were four motor vehicles here, it was possible to run only three or four miles out of the city before the wheels of the car would be churning in a sea of soft sand. Today the motorist has sixty miles to travel in a feet wide leading interwar from Montrovia. There are several other excellent roads, throughout the Republic, and by the end of 1926 there will be over three hundred miles of road in use.
Men's Congress Hears Dr. Scott On Race's Cultural Development
Men's Congress Hears Dr. Scott On Race's Cultural Development
Richmond, Va.-Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, Washington, D. C., spoke here Friday evening, January 22, at 8 o'clock, under auspices of the Men's Congress at the Leigh Street Memorial M. E. Church, corner Fifth and Leigh streets.
Dr. R. M. Williams, pastor, and Grover C. Grant, president of the Men's Congress, invited Dr. Scott to deliver an address on the Contribution to the Negro to Art Science and Literature. Dr. Gordon B. Hancock, of Virginia Union University, presented the speaker to the audience. The musical program was furnished by the Alpha and the Sabbath Glee Club, under the direction of Joseph Matthews.
In the course of his remarks, Dr. Scott reviewed the history of the Negro in America, stating that the Negro during his sixty years of free employment required the complex civilization in which he was plunged at the close of the Civil War.
Then he said: "If I have seemed to stray a bit from the path channeled for me tonight, it is because I have wanted, first of all, to paint a background of privilege and opportunity which has been ours, and which we can continue to make ours if we are made of the original stuff we call real life. We already made some substantial contribution to American life—to its material and its spiritual advancement. Of the material progress we have made the past sixty years, there is very general knowledge. We have proudly and properly celebrated and chronicled our wealth in homes and farms, churches and schools, banks and insurance companies, and other business enterprises, colleges and universities, but of our progress in things of the spirit we have not spoken of so much or so often."
The speaker called attention to the success of colored men and women in science, literature and music, and mentioned particularly those men of the race who have made important contributions in the fields of research science. He also referred to those who have won great success in the world of music and poetry, mentioning the group of young colored men and women who have personal womens' bodies of distinction. He appealed for more men and women of the race to enter those cultural fields in which he said "the greatest victories of the race are yet to be won."
Activities Of Brotherhood Of Sleeping Car Porters
Harmony with both looks and sizes make inclusion of this building greater of the crowd. Native men with sticks and hands, protect markets have scraped down hills and filled in valleys. They have made bridges with bamboo ropes lashed together with ropes made of palm fiber.
Friends of the redoubtable Bishop Brooks will be glad to know that he was one of the first to bring shopping to this neighborhood. Bamboo brought to Africa in 1922 was later sold to the Liberian. Frontier Force where it is still doing noble service. In August of 1925 the driver of the Ford truck given to the Bishop for mission work was fired for driving without his license. This should disprove the "no traffic court" theory.
Within the next year or so, President King promises to have a network of firefighters back to the boundary and every settlement in the interior with Morrocos, the Capital, and other coastal cities.
Transportation is the vehicle of civilization. And so civilization is riding to the heathen in deep cushioned, closed cars in Ford trucks, one ton at a time.
Conrad Norman Wins A Reversal From Supreme Court in Damage Suit
Conrad Norman Wins A Reversal From Supreme Court in Damage Suit
An interesting decision under the Civil Rights Law was handed down on January 15 by Justices Bjorey, Levy and Churchill of the Appellate Term of the Supreme Court upon an appeal of the Supreme Court to the Elder of the 7th District Municipal Court.
The plantiff in the case was Conrad Norman, a teacher in the public schools of New York City for the past twenty years. The defendant was the teacher and lived in New York on July 13, 1924, accompanied by six of his students, all white. Mr. Norman visited the bathing establishment of the defendant, conducted at City Island. One of the boys applied for tickets to the bathing pavilion and was asked by the easter, Mrs. asked whether that enclosed boy (meaning Mr. Norman) was in the party. When told that he was the refused to sell the tickets.
Mr Norman then went up to the booth and tendered a $3 bill for tickets. When he was refused he asked whether it was because of his color and she replied, "well, yes." When he did the cashier vigilated the presence of the Civil Rights Act. The cashier stated that she had her refusal on the grounds that he was not a member of the club. A civil suit for damages under the Civil Rights Law was the result. When the case came up in the 7th District Court, the president of the establishment testified that there were accommodations for 1,500 Island Swimming Club rented lockers, but that not more than 60 of them used the baths at one time. The cashier denied that she had been instructed to refuse tickets (to anyone because of their color but Justice Lei) in presenting the decision of the lower court declared that her conduct was chargeable to the corporation re: the decision he allowed Mr Norman $30 costs and ordered a new trial.
James S. Watton of 240 Broadway represented the plaintiff and Kadler, Park and Romolds of 2004. That same case were attorneys for the plaintiff.

Now that the big scars is not and we dare to speak the word typhoon above the breath, we might mention a form of pneumonia which is known by the misleading name of 'typhoid pneumonia.' What led people to speak of a pneumonia case as typhoid pneumonia? You may know that a gaitant suffering from typhoid shows two of three very characteristic symptoms: a dry, brown tongue, mufting delirium, extreme prostration, diarrhea and a great deal of gas in the abdomen. There is scarcely one typhoid case that does not manifest several or all of these signs.
In a few cases of pneumonia, there may be a dry, brown tongue, mustering delicium, prostration, diarrhea and gas and since "looks like typhoid" some people speak of the patient as having both typhoid and pneumonia.
The name "typhoid pneumonia" is not correct. Pneumonia of this type is not typhoid and has nothing to do with typhoid which is caused by another kind of germ entirely distinct from the pneumococcus.
I do not say that pneumonia and typhoid may not exist together in the same patient. Of course a person might have both diseases at one time, but this is rare and in such an event the typhoid fever usually precedes the pneumonia by several days and can be diagnosed by the other symptoma which clinch the diagnosis of typhoid fever. After that period, if pneumonia too should show its presence the diagnosis must be made by the findings in the lungs.
We are trying to do away with the deceiving term "typhoid pneumonia" and if you should hear anyone using the name for a pneumonia case, uncomplicated by typhoid, he might be glad to have you correct him.
The Cause of Pneumonia
THE cause of pneumonia is a germ called "pneumococcus", and this
called *pneumococcus*, and this germ may come an one of four common types. One of the cases of pneumonia and are of moderate severity. Type four is the kind of pneumococcus which is present in the months of nearly two out of three normal and well people. It causes very light trouble when pneumonia results from its presence. Type three is the worst of the four types and in a given number of cases caused pneumonia. In pneumonia germ, the results are fifty per cent disastrous. That is, any doctor who has twenty pneumonia patients suffering because of the third type of the pneumococcus would count himself fortunate if he saved the lives of ten of them. It is an exceedingly wicked type of germ. For the first two types there is a serum which sometimes has value in the treatment of these patients. For type three there is no such aid, as
No much for the actual cause of the disease pneumonia. The contribution cause I mentioned the disease and through chilling of the body, since a person might get if left a dain, and went outdoors on a bitter winter's night without his wraps; or a special kind of race, occupation or special need on the ground, germs on the part of an individual;

Nashville, Tenn.—Walden College held impressive memorial services on Sunday afternoon, January 24, for the late William Macoe Smyrl of the Walden faculty, who met death in an automobile accident on January 14. Ministers, teachers, students and Nashville citizens joined in paying tribute.
Prof. Smyrl was a native of South Carolina, spent eight or nine years in Claflin College, where he finished the preparatory, school and college department, and pursued graduate study in chemistry in Columbia University. During his college days at Claflin he was a football player of distinction and sang with the Claflin Singers. He taught chemistry in Alameda, one year after when that-school burns took work in Walden College where, for three years, he taught chemistry coached in football and sang with the Walden quartet. He was a member of the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity.

Do You Need A Tonic?
I
Boston, Mass—Words can't express my heartfelt thanks for the benefit I have received from Dr. Pierce's remedies. I found them to be the best the 130 I tried other doctors' medicines and they didn't do me any good. I took the Golden Medical Discovery and the 'Tronic (tonic) Tablets' and I feel that I am permanently cured. Before I began to use Dr Pierce's remedies, now my weight is 145. I was so that I couldn't eat pork nor any vegetables—now I can eat anything. "My wife is taking the 'Favorite Prescription' and the 'Golden Medical Discovery', and she is enjoying bette in her last but the first lose her last breast but now she doesn't look like the same person." I D. Williams, 11 W. Dedham St. Correct your stomach and improve your health with this 'Discovery' of Pierce's in liquid or tablets. Strengthen your heart and follow 10 cents to Dr Pierce's Invalid Hotel in Buffalo, N Y, for trial of the tablets
