BISHOP STIRES BLAMES BROOKLYN RECTOR
Men Charged With 'Voodoo Gold' Swindle Freed by Court
Ministers and Leaders of Greater New York, of All Races, Condemn Brooklyn Minister's Race Attitude
Bishop Ernest M. Stires Calls It "Most Regrettable Situation"; Believes "Ecclesiastical Snobbishness Un-Christian"
Perhaps no more widespread indignation has been registered recently among persons in all walks of life than was caused by the announcement made Sunday, September 15, by the Rev. William S. Blackshear, rector of St. Matthew's Protestant Episcopal Church, McDonough street and Tompkins avenue, Brooklyn, barring Negroes from attendance or membership in his church.
Representative F. H. LaGuardia, Republican candidate for Mayor, in a speech at exercises commemorating the 60th anniversary of Lincoln's issuance of his preliminary proclamation of emancipation, said before the Lincoln Statue in Union Square, said "Christ would have hung His Head in shame."
The was La Guardia's only reference to the subject, except for his statement that the complete political equality which Lincoln sought to bring about and which the Thirteenth Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution provided for, had not yet been realized.
At. St. Matthew Sunday.
At Rev. Blackshear's church, Sunday, the average attendance of Negroes was doubled, there being ten persons present, instead of the usual five.
Writing in The New York World of September 23, Lester A. Walton said:
"The Key William S. Blackshear, rector of St. Matthew's Protestant Episcopal Church, in Brooklyn drew no color line yesterday morning at the 11 o'clock service. Ten Negroes were among the scant hundred persons present, describe the young minister's statement of the week before that he desired to keep his congregation white."
"The Negro visitors were courteously received and invited by users to 'take any seat.' One Negro was handed a hymnal by an user while the congregation was singing Most of the Negroes preside men, some of them from Hallowell, are largely women.
When the young rector-native at Texas and graduate of Harvard and Oxford—been to read announcements everyone sat rigid and gave undivided attention to what he had to say. But he did bring up the color question."
Lorin B. Young Speaks.
Whatever people find that they cannot worship in the same church with Negroes it is for the white people to get out," was the answer made from the pulpit of one Brooklyn church Sunday night to the request of the Rev. William S. Blackman, rector of the Protestant Episcopal Church of St. Matthew. Preston, that Negroes leave his congregation and join churches down town.
Rev Loren Bradford Young, the Church of the H. Trinity, Clinton and Monroe streets, declared at the evening that, while modern so-called has stamped race prejudice inefficient and cruel, the church of the teachings of Christ, which have been the doctrine of the church for twenty centuries, is a solvent of all prejudice. The church of the rector of St. Vera stands as a denial of Christ he said.
The face of true reason, what Mr. Blackshear's re-including Negroes? He is protecting his church, he is protecting his church, he prejudices of his church, he is and through it his stands as a denial of Christ that excludes Negroes. Exclusive Christ is no Christianity. A whoso church is not a church

Writes All True Christians Are Members of One Christ Family
Bishop Ernest M Stires of the Diocese of Long Island Protestant Episcopal Church, in a letter to James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, remembered by William S. Bickershear, now famous request that Negroes sever connections with his church, says he believes "ecclesiastical snobbishness is unChristian" and that "all true Christians are members of one family in Christ."
Negro I$_3$ Welcomed.
In early to the request that disciplinary action be taken against the rector, Bishop Stires writes, "The church, wisely I think, has never legislated upon such matters of parochial poles, but the moral and spiritual law of the Church is well understood and is as effective as it expressed in canons, and it is that in the Church as a whole, in the Episcopate, in the ministry, in the membership of its parishes and missions, the members of the colored tael, are cordial and grateful and that anhang distinction of whatsoever can set their apart from their white brethren in Christ"
Discussing the situation further Bishop Stires declared the 'color line' and called the situation regrettable. The main sections of his letter are as follows:
A Regrettable Situation.
In discussing the most regrettable situation which arose in connection with a reported announcement of the Rev. William S. Blackshear of St. Matthews Church Brooklyn I desire to say first of all that I believe that the principle and policy which should animate and govern every church is because of the policy which we believe to have been practiced by our Lord Jesus Christ. Any form of ecclesiastical nonsbusiness is un Christian.
"Let me say that in my judgment the Rev. Mr. Blackshear would fully agree with this statement. In a letter to me he completely denies excluding colored people from St. Matthews. He further states that he has assured the colored communicants of St. Matthews of the most cordial态度 on part of his hospice that are deeply respected and that it is hoped that they will continue to be valued partners of St. Matthews Church.
"He further states that he has expressed the hope that other colored people in that section of Brooklyn would connect themselves with one or the other of the excellent parishes composed of their own people. He contends that he has given this advice for three reasons; that he and his vesture feel that it is desirable to take that stand as a matter of parish policy; that he feels that such a course would strengthen the two colored parishes, who need and should have the help of their people, and that he also believes that they would inevitably have a much larger opportunity in such parishes for the illest use of their abilities in parochial activities.
Wants No Color Line
"I admit that this statement does not entirely avoid the suggestion of drawing a color line and it is my personal conviction that we must avoid drawing any such line in the house of God or at the Lord's table. All true Christians are members of one family in Christ. In two former parishes I had colored comminucants and my relations with them were as close and affectionate as with any members of our family. I found it necessary to suggest, that I did not desire at more, and in my opinion such an announcement is indesensible. The 'Rev Mr. Blackshear knows that this is the Bishop's firm convictious.'
The Harlem Registration League, Samuel F. Holman, president, which grown sponsored the candidacy of Attorney Lamar Perkins against the disgrace of the regular Republican organization for nomination as candidate to the Assembly, in a statement issued by Mr. Holman, thanks voters of the 21st A. D and the ministers and newspapers of Harlem for their stout and perspicacity. Mr. Perkins. The League declares that united effort of all who believes in majority leadership will bring a sweeping victory to the race candidates in the 19th and 21st districts on Tuesday November 5.

DIST. CAPTAINS DESERVE CREDIT VICTORY IN 19th Michigan C. Brown Proves Mettle as Fighter For Moore and Rivers
One of the most encouraging features of the primary fight in the 19th A. D., which ended last week, was the enthusiastic support given the Moore-Rivers-Fillmore ticket by many of the veteran "regulars" of the district. Such men as Capt. Henry Wilson, Harry "Kid" Griffin, Josiah Dixon and other district captains who had always previously been with the organization realized the justice of the demand made for control of the district by the majority group of voters. They worked increasingly for the success of the Moore-Rivers-Fillmore ticket and the vote in their districts showed the results of their efforts.
Then there were a group of loyal women, which included Mrs. Blanche Bond, Mrs. Lucy Freeman, Mrs. Media Dodson, Mrs. Eva T Parks, Mrs. Elizabeth Dearborn and many others, who did effective work. They too, had all been "regulars" for years but were willing to stake their political future on a just cause for the betterment of Hagley. Special mention should be made on one particular work, who had a double job in the primary fight. He is Michigan C. Brown, former clerk on the Seventh District Municipal Court. Mr Brown was thereasor of a criminal court in his shoulders fell the burden of securing finances to conduct the campaign. Then because of his success over a long period of years as a district captain, a special fight was made by the Grenthal-Harris forces to carry Mr Brown's district. They sent the different group of canvassers through the district and got out a special circular against Mr Brown. But despite all the opposition this district case Mr Rivers 97 votes to Grenthal, 30 and Alderman Moore 91 votes to Committee 30. The Billmore County Committee was also elected by the big majority district. The vote at the polls Tuesday was as much a personal triumph for Michigan C. Brown as for any of the candidates. He again ordered his mettle as a fighter and politician.

New Day Dawns for Liberia With Opening of Agricultural and Industrial School, Says Dr. Taylor
Fund Originated By the Late Miss Stokes Who Left $50,000 for Training of Liberians In Academic Studies and Manual Training
Liberia, the Negro Republic on the West Coast of Africa, will make more material progress in the next twenty years than it has made in the first eighty years of its history, is the prediction of Dr. Robert R. Taylor, vice principal and head of industries at Tuskegee Institute, who recently returned from a two months' stay in that country.
Dr. Taylor was sent to Liberia by the Phelps-Stokes Fund and Mission Departments of several religious dehominations to select a site for a proposed agricultural and industrial school in that country.
Robert R. Moton were made trustees for this fund. Later the Phelps-Stokes Fund added $25,000 to the legacy and the Liberian Legislature, at the request of President King, voted 1000 acres of land
Was Miss Stokes' Idea
The idea of such a school in Liberia originated with the late Miss Olive Davidson-Stokes, who during the life time of Dr. Booker T. Washington, offered to give $50,000 for this purpose, providing Dr. Washington and the Tuskegee trustees be responsible for the maintenance of the school. Tuskegee was not at that time on the firm financial foundation it is today and the trustee board declined the offer.
Miss Stokes was not discouraged and renewed the offer after Dr. R R Moton became the principal. It was again declined. A few years later she died and it was discovered that this ambition to aid the Liberians had been uppermost in her mind to the end of her life, as she had left $50,000 in her will as a trust fund for this purpose.

Two Con Men on Trial
For $5,000 Swindle
Two Con Men on Trial
For $5,000 Swindle
Trial of Fred Green, 31, and Edgar Mayfield, 29, both of 147 West 145th street, who are accused of working a "voodoo hidden gold" swindle which cost Henry Warner, reality operator, $5,000, began Monday before Judge Turk in Queens County Court.
Lewis Rayfield, brother of Edgar, who was also accused of having been one of the swindlers, was convicted on a charge of grand larceny and is serving a long sentence.
Warner testified that Green and the Rayfield brothers went with him to Springfield, Queens, where he had several lots for sale April 19, 1928. Lewis told him he had dreamed $3,000 in gold was buried there
"Lewis Rayfield took a tape measure from his pocket," Warner said, measured the lot and then told Green to dig in a certain spot. Green dig up a square box. I open it up man," but Lewis said that it did not we would all die and that first we must "pass $10,000 above the box."
"I got five $1,000 bills which I put in an envelope and gave to Lewis. He put in his money, then spoke some words of foolishness and handed back the envelope. Then he opened the box and there were three $10 gold pieces on the top layer. He told me we had better go back and he would bring the money to me the next morning. When I opened up the envelope the next morning all that was in it was ten slips of paper."
After hearing all the testimony in the case, the jury retired and in a short time brought in a verdict acquiring both Rayfield and Green of the case that they had aided in the twinkle of the $5,000 from Warner.
E. H. Wilson Jr. Named On Crime Commission
Edward H Wilson Jr., formerly connected with the Carlton Avenue branch, Brooklyn and the Detroit Y M. C. A's, now executive director of the Columbus Hill Welfare Community Settlement, has been named by the District Attorney's office as one of a committee of nine to study juvenile crime conditions in New York, the purpose being to make recommendations to Police Commissioner Grover Whalen. The first meeting was held Monday, September 3, in office of the Kings County District Attorney, when plans were formulated for procedure by the committee. The personnel of the commission includes Jewish, Catholic and Protestant, faiths.

Robert R. Moton were made trustees for this fund. Later the Phelps-Stokes Fund added $25,000 to the legacy and the Liberian Legislature, at the request of President King, voted 1000 acres of land for a site. The foreign mission boards of the Episcopal and Methodist Churches voted to support the school.
Chosen To Select Site
Because of his long experience at Tuskegee and his knowledge of agriculture and the building trades, Dr. Taylor was chosen to select the site for the school. He will also design and supervise the construction of the buildings.
Dr. Taylor states that he was amazed at the agricultural and industrial possibilities of the country and was at first unable to account for the lack of progress in this country as compared with that made by the natives of the Gold Coast, for example.
This seeming backwardness is due, he believes, to the historical background of the country. The American Negroes who settled along the coast of what is now Liberia were placed wholly on their own resources. Like the early American colonist they had to fight the savage natives. But unlike them they could not turn to a mother country for financial aid, nor could they borrow money from other countries for education or industrial development. It is only in the past ten fifteen years that the country has had any outside aid, whatever.
As early as 1892, says Dr. Taylor, it was realized that Liberia soil was ideal for the ground of coffee. In that year samples of Liberian coffee were exhibited at the World's Fair in Chicago and one of these samples won a first prize. The coffee industry in Liberia will one day rival that of Brazil
Rubber Development
The Firestone Rubber Company realized the possibilities of growing rubber on Liberian soil and now has one of the largest plantations there in all the world. The country is also rich in timber resources, says Dr. Taylor. The finest kinds of mahogany and other hard woods are found here. Then there are unusual possibilities from the palm tree and from the cultivation of the pineapple and resultant canning industry, he concluded. Of course, there is the present inland tropical diseases, such as yellow rot and intestinal troubles, etc. now prevalent in the country, but Dr Taylor believes that medical science and education will conquer these disease here as so many diseases have been conquered in other countries.
School Site Selected
The site for the new school has been selected on the Du River, 16 miles from Monrovia, in a north easterly direction and on one of the public highways. The property contains many oil palm trees, is reasonably level and has fine soil, says Dr Taylor. It is well watered by the Du River on one side and rapid flowing branches on others, and these will supply simple water supply for domestic and industrial purposes. It is also located in a thickly populated native section, with three tribes—Gola, Bassa and Pwiesie—living in the vicinity. The nearest large school is about 35 miles distance.
The greatest emphasis will be laid on instruction in agriculture, mining and home crafts for crafts. These subjects will be taught along with elementary, primary and high school academic work. There will also be religious training and a good deal of attention will be given to health and sanitation. The school hopes to have a competent physician, acquainted with tropical diseases, who will serve not only the school but also the general community. At the present time a doctor can be reached only by traveling long distances.
While abroad, Dr. and Mrs. Taylor visited England, Scotland Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy and France.

The Week of September 28 ASTROLOGICALLY CONSIDERED
BY THEARCHER
The sun is approaching an opposition to Uranus and this vibration is not very easy to understand or endure unless one can be very patient and well poised in body and mind. 'ine news will be full of unusual accidents; sudden and unexpected explosive accidents; peculiar injury and wounding of women and children; domestic upheavals and scandals; loss of relatives and friends through eratic conduct. This aspect quite often harms serious revolt since those in authority often abuse their power. Our people know quite a few instances within the past two weeks.
The birthdates of September 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 and 30, and October 1, 2, 3 and 4 will feel this vibration very strong in their affairs all this week. They will need to keep a firm grip upon their minds and to try not to antagonize their brothers and sisters. Many other events will naturally be beyond personal, control. Conditions will change a great deal for the better. A great deal is 2.922 for day for these folks seems to be October 4. They can accomplish a great deal on that date if the birth horoscope is harmonious to the aspects of the day. All of them can gain some benefit through plans made for that date in a more or

It is quite possible for an intelligent person to consciously plan and build for the future, and Astrology can help to a very great extent by giving a fore-knowledge of the planetary influence that are favorable and unfavorable. All of us have observed that influences seem to work in our favor at times, and strangely against us at other times. Does it not seem possible that one could utilize the favorable influences to get ahead more rapidly? No one can see the electric current, but one does, know that the invisible electric current will illuminate, give light, heat, and energy when properly directed. Planetary influences are magnetic currents, and the intelligent person tries to work with them for better results.
The readers who would like to know how to get ahead and to understand what planetary influences are working in their horoscopes should write to Thearcher, in care of The New York Age, 230 West 135th street, New York City. The birth date, month, year, and hour should be given with the birth place It is important that all the data be given correctly. This paragraph and a stamped and self addressed envelope must accompany the data. All communications are confidential.

Pastor of Broadway Temple Endorses Hubert T. Delany
The Delany-for-Congress Committee has been much encouraged during the past two weeks by the splendid receptions Mr. Delany has been receiving in the white sections o. the 21st Congressional District
Sunday night, September 22, Mr. Delany was the principal speaker at an inter-racial meeting in the Chelsea Methodist, 178th street and Fort Washington avenue. This church, under the leadership of the Rev. Christian Reisner, is creeting the Broadway Temple at 177th, 178th streets and Broadway, which will be the tallest church structure in the world.
Dr. Reisner introduced Mr. Delany by saying that he believed he was sufficiently well-trained to represent any group of citizens in Congress and that he (Dr. Reiner) intended voting for him.
Mr. Delany spoke on the cells of segregation, jim crowism, unequal educational opportunities,.. Similar receptions have been accorded Mr. Delany in other white churches.

Hudson in the executive secretary. As was told in The Age last week, Mr. Hubert opposed the renomination of Alderman Moore, as was his privilege at a voter and a member of the Republican party in his district. But Mr. Hubert did more than merely assert his choice as an individual voter. He sought to throw the influence of the welfare organization of which he is a paid executive, in favor of Mr. Moore's opponent.
This attempt of Mr. Hubert to carry the Urban League into a Republican primary contest was asserted through a letter typed on the official letterhead of the organization, with its impressive list of officers, signed by Hubert as executive secretary, soliciting the interest of the addresssee in behalf of "a good friend; Mr. Harris." Incidental to this is the fact that Alderman Moore is himself a member of the executive board of the National Urban League, with such associates as William H. Baldwin, John W. Davis, Lloyd Garrison, Arthur C. Holden, John Hope, Dr. Abraham Lefkowitz, Josiah P. Marvel, Mrs. Albert S. Reed, Dr. E. P. Roberts, Miss Dorothy Strauss, W. R. Valentine, Miss Elizabeth Walton, L. Hollingsworth Wood and others. This emphasizes the absurdity of the attempt of a paid subordinate to cast the influence of a local branch of the league against a member of its national board:

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1929.
The recent primary elections in Harlem mark a most significant event affecting the political status of the Negro race, and that significance is not limited to local conditions. The defeat of Assemblyman Grenthal for the re-nomination and for the district leadership indicates that the colored voters have awakened to the fact that they possess the power to elect their own leaders and thereby obtain a voice in party councils and in the naming of candidates for effective office. It shows that they have at last come to realize that the right to vote carries with it the right to be voted for and to hold office, by virtue of their political strength and party affiliations.
But the point of the matter is this, whether it is wise for such an organization as the Urban League with its avowed purpose of improving the conditions of living and industry for Negroes in urban centers, to permit its local branches or their executive heads, to enlist the organization in partisan politics, especially in a primary contest where a principle of racial interest was involved. Mr. Hubert's letter evidently was intended to oppose the principle of elective representation, which was indorsed by a majority of the voters. But regardless of the fact whether the writer of such a letter picked a winner or a loser, his action in dragging a welfare organization into a political contest must be regarded as indiscret and unadvised.
Credit is due Representative DePriest of Chicago, for helping to open the eyes of Harlem voters to the strength of their position and the way in which they might utilize it to vindicate the principle of majority representation, and thus secure the right to name men of their own choice to represent them as candidates and as leaders. Credit is also due to those white voters in the district who recognized the justice of the demand for elective representation on the part of the ninety per cent majority of colored voters, and aided in their fight to get it. It was not a victory solely for the Negro voter, but for all Republicans who believed in the justice of the demand for elective representation. This was shown by the spreading of the movement begun in the Nineteenth district to the Twentyfirst, where it resulted in the victory of Lamar Perkins.
Mr. Hubert's indiscretion will not increase his usefulness as a local executive of the league nor will it tend to make friends for the league among the community at large. Such organizations as the Urban League should be kept out of politics.
REBUKING A RECTOR
There has been an intimation from high authority in the party organization that there should be no reprisals, now that the question of representation has been settled by the voters. That is perfectly correct as an expression of party policy. The contest was carried on within party lines and settled by a majority vote, so overwhelming as to leave no room for question. The suggestion of closed ranks and solid support for the successful candidates is in keeping with party regularity. Those who voted for Grenthal and Harris as a matter of individual preference simply exercised their personal prerogative, and were within their rights as party voters.
An unexpected and somewhat surprising result of the announcement of an Episcopalian rector in Brooklyn barring Negroes from his church, was the public reprobation of his declaration made in speech and in print. There was nothing surprising about the sentiments expressed by the Rev. William S. Blackshear, rector of St. Matthew's Church, except that he was a trifle brutal and coarse in his manner of proclaiming them. Evidently his work at Harvard and Oxford universities had not ameliorated his earlier training in Texas, of which state he is a native son. Nor does his study of theology at the Virginia Theological Seminary seem to have helped to remove the asperities of racial prejudice. At any rate he was unnecessarily vulgar and crude in his declaration that St. Matthew's "did not want Negro money nor Negro members."
But there were some issues raised in this primary contest that are not so easily forgotten or pardoned. There was a flood of calumny and slander and misrepresentation of the successful candidates that might well have contributed to their defeat, had their characters and reputations been less firmly established in the community. This flood of abuse and endeavor to spatter mud savored of gutter politics and recoiled upon the heads of those who resorted to such unfair tactics. Those responsible for such vicious attacks should be made to realize the futility of such soul practices and repent at leisure.
Probably it was this cruelty and roughness that offended the public sense of decency and prompted the editorial, rebukes administered by most of the dailies and the indignant letters from numerous writers. The World resalled the parable of the Good Samaritan, but could not visualize the rector as the Samaritan, but rather as the priest and the Levite who passed by on the other side. The Brooklyn Eagle thought that "ordinary consideration, to say nothing of Christianity, should have restrained this rector's utterances and spared the feeglings of the colored people," while the Evening Telegram settled the whole matter, by treating the church as a social club.
To the victors in the primary context a word of caution is not amiss. The outside world will be alert to observe how the power of leadership and representation which they have won, is wielded and utilized; whether it is used for the general good of the district, or employed solely for selfish aggrandizement, as was the case with the former leader. Then there are a considerable number of white voters who fought for the same principle of elective representation, who should be given their due for helping to make that principle effective.
Individuals were just as outspoken in rebuking the action of this Brooklyn rector. A brother priest at Greenport, L. I., denied that the Church "indorses the segregation of people; she permits, but does not 'uphold this custom.' A woman cautioned the rector that before he can keep his church white, as he proclaimed his intention of doing, "he will have to be quite sure that none but the white frequent it, and this he will never achieve by scrutinizing their complexion." Another Episcopalian, who read of the Texan's ukased more in sorrow than in anger, cited several Episcopalian churches with which he had been connected where "the color line was simply not recognized," and thought that Mr. Blackshear should go back to Texas.
It is well to gain and exercise the rights of citizenship, but it must not be forgotten that the responsibilities of citizenship are equally binding and obligatory upon the winners in the contest. And the fight is not over. The primary is only the beginning. The verdict of the primary must be confirmed at the polls in November before it can become effective.
URBAN LEAGUE IN POLITICS.
The New York Urban League is a welfare organization, intended for social services among Negroes in New York City, with its headquarters located on West 136th street, of which James H.
Despite several efforts to get an authoritative expression from the bishop as to the rector's action, it was announced that he would take no official action, carefully washing his hands of the mat-
bishop has known the public for many decades since a certain Roman official adopted that method of avoiding awkward issues. This attitude of the Long Island bishop recalls a story attributed to another bishop, who presides over a neighboring diocese and frequently goes abroad. This visiting prelate while in London gained (write a reputation, as a raconteur of funny stories based on his experience with the colored priests, he had met. In one of these stories the prelate told of a colored missionary preacher, who on introducing the bishop to his congregation, referred to him as "a sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal." This story was supposed to illustrate the ignorance of the backwoods missionary, but he may have inadvertently hit the mark.
Sounding brass and tinkling cymbals appear to prevail over common concepts of Christianity, pure and undefined, so far as the Church's attitude on race prejudice is concerned, although there are a saving leaven of its adherents whose precept and practice are in harmony.
LIBERIA AND LEAGUE OF NATIONS.
The fact that the Republic of Liberia was a member of the League of Nations was emphasized recently by the announcement from Geneva, that Liberia had made a proposal that the League appoint a commission to inquire into the matter of slavery in the West African Republic. The Liberian delegate, Dr. A. Applop, was reported as saying that his country did not wish to have this investigation made by a commission of its own, but asked for an inquiry by a body to be appointed by the league. The commission would consist of three members one to be named by the United States, one by the League of Nations, and one by Liberia.
The Liberian delegate stated that the United States had already agreed to cooperate in such an investigation. While he denied the existence of slavery in the republic, in view of the repeated assertions made from outside sources, it was desired that an impartial commission, investigate the matter and demonstrate that the charges are groundless. Especially was this desirable since the League had proposed to revive its slavery commission, at the instance of Lord Roberts Cecil, who had stated that there were still three million slaves in the world.
These allegations as to the existence of slavery in Liberia have been rife for some time, especially in connection with the employment of native workers on the rubber plantations started under the firestone concession. It has been charged that laborers are hired through the heads of tribes in the interior, who furnish the number of workers required and receive the pay for them in bulk. So conflicting have been the reports made by outsiders as to whether this labor is forced or not, that this movement on the part of the Liberian delegate for an outside investigation seems necessary to settle the question.
There are other questions, outside of the existence of slavery in Liberia, which might require an international commission for settlement, but they are mainly political and affecting internal matters which would not come within the scope of the League of Nations. Their investigation and correction must therefore be left to the action of the Liberian authorities and the people who put them in office and keep them there.

WOMEN AND THE TARIFE.
Every once in a while the daily papers report some society woman engaged in the act of smuggling or endeavoring to bring into this country goods, or clothing or jewelry, without making a declaration of its value and paying the duty required by the tariff laws. Women have therefore gained a reputation as inveterate smugglers and utterly opposed to paying any duties on the foreign goods they purchase abroad. In view of the proposed changes to be made in the tariff, mostly upwards, this feminine peculiarity should not be ignored.
A woman member of Congress from New Jersey, in noting some of the changes proposed in the tariff laws, told of the probable effect in increasing the cost of apparel for working women, of whom she estimated that there are some eight and one half millions in the country. She stated that the cost of their shoes, stockings, dresses, coats, underwear and toilet articles, "in fact everything that goes to make a woman comfortable," would be increased from ten to seventy-five per cent, under the proposed bill. She said that under the bill as it now stands, a ten dollar, hat calls for a tariff of two dollars and a half; that fine toilet soaps are increased in price by thirty cents on each dollar's worth; that the tariff on silks will raise the price of much of women's clothing.

By CHAS. H. MOORE
Seventeen years ago, when the late Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was nominated for President by the Progressive Party, assembled in convention in Chicago; he outlined in an editorial article in "The Outlook" the attitude of that party towards the Negro.
Whether or not the Progressive Party, had it succeeded in supplying one of the two major parliaments (Democratic and Republican) would have been any more sincere and loyal in the performance of its pledges made to the colored man and political brother than the Republican Party has been, no one now can absolutely affirm, as the history and career of the Progressive Party was rather short-lived.
Be that as it may, the appraisal of Col. Roosevelt, then, relegated to the Republican and Democratic Parties, respectively, toward the Negro, is quite interesting, even it isn't new to some of us;
"The recent Progressive-National Convention differed strikingly, in many ways, from all previous conventions of both Republican and Democratic Parties, and in no way more markedly than in its action toward the colored man. For many years the attitude of the Democratic Party toward the colored man has been one of brutality, and the attitude of the Republican Party toward him one of hypocrisy. One party has brutally denied him, not only his rights, but all hope of ever being treated aright; the other has hypocritically pretended to be a good or ill person, but has been insulted in that did him harm and not good.
"The Progressive, on the contrary, have at the very outset of their party career acted toward him with good faith and also with entire frankness and sincerity, keeping true to their ideals and yet also looking facts in the face, performing for him in the present and for the old party has ever performed, acting so that there will be an increased measure of performance in the future, and yet promising nothing that cannot be performed."
The colonel next discusses and analyses the type of Negro delegate that usually was sent from the South to represent the Republic. But the different national accommodations them as "largely men of bad character and almost openly venal."
This was the "most unkindest cut" of all, coming as it did from the colonel. For had he not used the very same kind of Negro delegates (of which there were) when he was a candidate for the Presidency or, when he was endorsing William Howard Taft to be his successor?
To us, his change of opinion regarding the character of the Negro delegate from the South, after the colonel became the Progressive Party nominee, for the Presidency, seemed to be another case of "sour grapes" just at that time.
We do not, however, deny that there were a few Negro delegates in some of the emotional convictions—who were allied with an "itching palm," but not any more, so if as much, as the white Republican delegate from the same section.
Well, since God permitted Mr. Roosevelt to live long enough to see his mistake, and repent of trying to destroy, the Republican Party in 1912, we should be nonetheless magnanimous in forgiving him of the wholesale indictment of the Negro delegates to Republican National Convention "as men bad character and openly "Nil de mortis must bonum" But let us listen to the colonies' conclusions regarding the question in the premises:
"We feel with all our hearty that in a democracy like ours, and above all, in such a genuinely democratic movement as ours, we cannot permanently succeed except on the basis of treating each man on his worth as a man. The humbleest among us, no matter what his creed, his birthplace, or the color of his skin, so long as he is a man of good fashion, must have guaranteed to him under the law his right to life and liberty, to protection from injustice, to the enjoyment of the frutes of his own labor, and to do his share in the work of self-government on the same terms with others of like fitness. Our movement is in the interest of every honest, industrious, law-abiding colored man just as it is in the interest of every honest, industrious, law-abiding white man. Our nearly half a century the Republic has proceeded on the theory that he should man in the South, in order to cure him his political rights, should be encouraged to antagonize the white man in the South; for nearly half a century the Democratic party has encouraged the white man of the South to
they realize that the town is going...to make them pay more for their necessities as well as their luxuries.
Those statesmen who feel that the sugar industry and other infant industries need further protection by jacking up the tariff rates should pause a while and find out what the women of the country feel about it. Otherwise there are going to be some unexpected changes in the next Congress.
tample on the colored man. The Republican policy has utterly and miserably failed in its object; it has not only failed no good to the colored man; but has harned him, has also harmed the white man of the South, and through the votes of the colored man of the South in the national convention has finally destroyed the Republican party itself.
"The Democratic party has succeeded in its policy, but at the cost of the damage done to the people, man and also to those in whose interest the policy was supposed to be carried on—the white man of the South themselves.
"One of the greatest services that can be performed for the white men of the South is to emancipate them from their slavery to the Democratic party. As regards the colored man, I need hardly point out that the Democratic party, is as it always has been, consists of men who possess the Democratic party and its candidates in this contest can honestly say that he is the friend of the colored man, or entitled to be listened to when he pretends to be such.
Why Women Should Vote
B. E. BYRD NIXON.
BY E. BYRD NIKOR
That there is an ever-increasing demand for the wide spread participation of women in the political affairs of our communities today but evidences the need for the colored woman to fit herself for the larger sphere that each succeeding event in the realm of politics demands, and we, the women of Harlem, particularly the colored women, can do no less than fit ourselves by study, by observation and example to carry on the great battle for race advancement and race political enfranchisement. We should be able to understand and appreciate the fact that woman wields a mighty influence that women can develop a development nation since it is undeniably a truth, that each intelligent vote cast by woman is a tremendous factor and that often it becomes n determining one
That existing conditions in our midst are deplorable goes without saying, but that they cannot exist indefinitely is a foregone conclusion, when we consider the achievements of the last primary election, and this conclusion has been forced upon us by the unprecedented number of women who stood shoulder to shoulder together and voted for their several candidates.
You women have the power to demonstrate beyond a cavil of doubt that you hold the balance of political power not only in this community, but throughout the whole of this vast land.
And the widespread participation of women in politics will force the leaders of our great political organizations to realise that in the making of states we must be reckoned with, not as a power behind the throne to be kept in the background, but as equals upon common ground, with a voice to be heard in all concludes and councils.
Now it is a subject of common comment that woman as a rule is sow to avail herself of the privileges of the ballot, and that after generations of association with the male voters of her family, she still lacks the stimulus to aggressive effort in her own behalf. Therefore the inference is patient that women are not the fact that women 'dus politically' is paramount to man's, for she not only is the producer of the world's future generation, but as the guider of their opinions, as moral preceptress, as mental teacher of those vast generations should also be the political monitor.
Now from an ethical view-point, the larger participation of woman in politics will mean a wider experience for her in the conduct of affairs and increasing experience in turn will have a broader influence on the parishards government which in turn will bring about a higher moral and political sense of duty in the individual elected to office.
Therefore it your duty as women
wives, and mothers to acquire a
more fitting understanding of your
responsibilities and as good citizen
quality yourselves to become worthy
successors of those noble women
who fought years for your political
enfranchisement.

COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS
ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS
Money talks. It talks everywhere and with considerable effectiveness. Those who have plenty of money and a healthy crop of prejudice at the same time, have little difficulty in getting consideration for their prejudices.
London is a good example. Americans have been visiting the city in increasing volumes since the war. They have, of course, carried their racial prejudices with dog with help plump money bags. They have in that London has actually become a more difficult city for a Negro to get service, and accommodation than New York, Boston, San Francisco and such fairly rural towns.
Mr. Robert S. Abbot, editor of the Chicago Defender, was recently refused accommodations in 30 London hotels. He would not have had that much difficulty getting hotel accommodation in Cleveland or Detroit or Rochester. British Labories are investigating the discrimination and the incidence of deferred compensation. MacDonald who one of the speakers at the Pan-African Congress when it was held in London, some years ago.
In commenting on his experience the editor said: "I expected different treatment in England which has millions of colored people under her flag." It now strikes us that this fact was a good reason for supposing that he would be discriminated against because of his color. As a rule those nations with no colored people under their laws have nations like Portugal, France, England and the United States. In "BAN JAQUO" Claire McKay gives us a peep at the real attitude of the French toward Negroes in France while André Glide in "TRAVELS-IN THE CONGO" shows us how the French keep the colonial blacks "in their place." Singularly enough the Pittsburgh editor predicts that another generation will probably find little or no discrimination abroad because of the spread of tolerance in America".
Pursuing the quest for a fitting designation for the Negro race in the United States, the Rising Sun of Hopkinsville, Ky., introduces, the term "Ethican." It said: Much has been said about the proper name for the Negro in America. A learned scholar comes forward with the suggestion that we are neither Negroes, Colored or Afro-American, but that we are Ethicans.
He bases his assertion upon the results of a laborious study of anthropology which claims Ethiopia as the genesis of the Hamitic race and the civilization of Abyssinia as the surviving fame of Negro Africanic glory. All the so-called black races of Africa are Ethiopians so he declares and Ethiopians they should remain no matter what their clique or adopted environment. Since it was Ethiopia who first lighted the torches at the battlefield to Greece and Rome and to the world. Since she was the protector of Christianity and the procurator of the sciences it little becomes expatriated Ethiopians to leave all remembrance of former glory of splendor and ascendency. Hence he would combine both Ethiopia and America in a proper name and call the American Negro an Ethiopian.
The name sounds good and the history behind it is desirable. Perhaps in time to come when sufficient pride pride has asserted itself to demand a proper name for ourselves we shall no longer be called Negroes and Negroes but Ethiopians.
One drawback to the use of this term would be that it might suggest a derivation from the science of ethics, rather than the land of Ethiopia. That would require some explaining to make clear the distinction.
Here that they knew nothing about it, and were certainly disgusted to be placed in such a false position. In my estimation, Mr. Grenthall has never at any time deserved the advantage of my group. I am aptly interested in politics and even though it may be regarded as a game, it is one which can be played "square."
The Boston Tea Party is not to be forgotten. No same individual desires taxation without representation hence we have no need for Mr. Genuhal. I trust that you will understand that there are among those in the membership of the City Fellows who are true purposes, who desire at all times to help the community in all possible.

New York is the only state having a navigable water boundaries on each of its four sides: the Atlantic Ocean on the South; Lake Cham, pain on the east; Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence on the north, and Lake Erie and the Niagara River on the West. New York leads all other states in aviation progress, with 753 privately owned airplanes. Thirty-three airports and landing fields are in operation, and new fields are being rapidly established. New York State electric utilities have 40,000 miles of transmission lines and gas compaired 20,000 miles of mans. Their combined mileage is nearly six times that of all the improved highways in the state. Sweet corn was first discovered by the American colonists in New York State, and found growing in western New York, the soldiers under General John Sullivan in their expedition of 1729
The oldest savings account in the United States was started with $15 in 1819 in New York City. It is still alive and accumulated interest has increased, to $2771.00. No money has been added or withdrawn.
We noted one Negro in the Bakers' Union; two Negroes in the Platterers' Union; one Negro boy upon the Painters' foot; one Negro band and not more than sixty common laborers and builders in their union. What; then, did it mean to march and proclaim to the world that an honest day's pay would take care of an honest man's family? Why the absence of black faces in the various vital trades which are so absolutely essential to civilization. Ever drivers of wagons, trucks and chauffeurs were represented in their union.
If the Negro is excluded from these vital unions' membership on account of race or color, if it is his duty to attempt to break down the Fine and keep at it unceasingly until the barriers come down. Now, if the exclusion is caused because of the lack of preparation, then it is better to prepare, then set about learning trades, vocations, etc., until he is so proficient that a great loss is sustained if such a skilled worker is not employed.
Gradually the Denver Negro is seemingly losing out in his economic sturess to take care of his household and his obligations. No matter if there is some truth or not in the statement that the civic commercial bodies are discouraging the hiring and employing of Negro labor, it still remains true that where man closes one door, God immediately opens another door. The Negro of Denver is sleeping and if he does not soon awaken he will completely he shut out of everything. It seems to the Star that our unionized ministry should give serious study and action and a larger community committee he appointed, to study and report their findings.
The Star sought to emphasize the seriousness of the situation by its final sentence: "Not a 'Pullman porter in line!'
The Industrial Era of Beaumpont, Texas, alongside of, a legal notice summoning Harold Ramsey, to answer a petition (or divorce), printed the following curious item:
Mrs Sarah Rector Campbell, who before her marriage was known as the "richest colored girl in the world" has received a tax refund of $121,820 from the federal government. Because of her extensive oil holdings in that state, "Sarah Rector" was by legislative enactment some years ago given "white people" privileges in Oklahoma Such recognition is another way of
It will be observed that the item ends abruptly, due to the ruthless "make-up" man having cut off the remainder of the article by slapping a rule under the last line and filling out the column with advertising matter. But it would be interesting to find out what privileges were conferred on Miss Rector by legislative enactment, if any.
Talking about the season of school openings, the Charleston Messenger pointed to the State of North Carolina as an example of fairness in providing educational facilities, compared with her Southern neighbors; it said:
We have been greatly pained by statistics just recently published which show the great disparity between amounts spent for the education of colors and white. Here in South Carolina in certain counties, where the population is about equally divided the county sometimes spends fifteen dollars on the education of their white children for each dollar spent on the colored children. It is to be hoped that South Carolina will follow in the train of North Carolina and other progressive states and begin to spend as much for schools and for facilities of all kinds upon their needy black brethren as upon themselves. By doing this they will save themselves money, prestige and honor, and will bring unto their long neglected underprivileged Negro citizens. For measures of justice meet not only the approval of the fair, thinking people of the world but also have the sanction of the eternal ever watchful God.
Evidently in South Carolina the obligation of the State to educate its citizens is not taken very seriously. An art of Providence is required to awaken its authority, to a sense of their duty.
Setting forth the importance of the church school as a factor in religious training or character, building the African-American Presbyterian of Charlotte said.
In the Southern States, because of the dual system of education, the Church school is also needed to supplement the unequal and inadequate school advantages offered the Negro south. In North Carolina, for instance, according to the "State School Facts," published semi-monthly by the State Department of Public Instruction, the average annual per pupil cost of instruction service for the white schools State in 1027-1028 was $29.40 whereas the average per pupil cost of instructional service in colored schools was $11.80 the average term for the white schools was 153 months colored it was 158 months. The report also shows that the average number of pupils per teacher and principal employed in the white schools of the State was 33 and in the colored schools 44. And public school advantages offered colored youth in most of the other Southern States are less favorable than in North Carolina.
In fact North Carolina is held up as an example to her less progressive sister states in the matter of education.
Grace Churca of Harlem
A goodly number of the congregation of Grace Church was in attendance at the morning service. In the absence of the pastor, who had not returned from camp in time for the service, his place in the pulpit was filled by the Rev. W. J. rielloway. Mr. rielloway took his text from Matthew 23.14.10 ("The Parable of the latents") and as his theme "you Must Use or Lose!" The biggest thought left with his hearers was that God has given talents to all of us to be used and returned to Him ten-fold to we wish God to bestow His bounty and blessing upon us. He also brought out an interesting point in which he expressed sympathy for the man who had lost it because he explained that the man might have been afraid that it he had invested the talent it might have been lost and so for safe keeping and he hoped to please his master he had hidden his talent away. It was a well delivered sermon, full of good thoughts and les-
Attter the sermon, Edgar N. Parks for the trustees, and James H. Prut for the deacons, expressed the thanks of their respective boards and the church to Rev. Holloway for the excellent lessons that he had brought to them during the absence of the pastor.

The vicar, Rev. John Wesley Johnson, preached at the 11 a.m. service. His text was taken from St. Luke. "He that exalteth himself shall be humbled, and he that humbeth himself shall be exalted"
Father Johnson did refer to an appeal for the church's "Christianity." He called attention to the steady progress of the Already-America from the position in which slavery had placed him to his present position "secretly feared by the white American and loved by the world in general, and a welcomed visitor in many lands where white men are not wanted at the present time, and looked up to by the darker races of the world for leadership"
The preacher for evening prayer and sermon was the Rev. L. H. Berrie, who entered the ministry from the church.

ious rhetoric in the great City of Cairo in his life to the faith when he did come. It was with his whole heart. He did his studies in order to give the year to the poor. No successor was at the Christian community by the
evident sincerity of his conversion, that in a short time after his baptism, Cyprian was elected "Bishop of Carthage." His life and conduct were worthy of that high dignity. On the breaking out of a pestle, he devoted himself to the care of the suffering, regardless of creed. This endeared him to the masses. The good will of the poor, however, could not protect their benefactor from the operations of the Roman law, according to their instincts. His crime Cyprian was brought before the magistrate and condemned to... death. Joyfully he received the release. The aged prelate was beheaded on the 14 day September in the year A. D. 258.
St. Paul Baptist Church
The activities of the past week included strenuous efforts on the part of the participants in the Pleague of Nations, which is to be grown under auspices of the Lady Usher Board Thursday night, September 20. This will probably be the biggest thing of the year. The prayer services, while more largely attended, were not quite as warm spiritually as we would like to see them. So the pastor has promised to be present to lead on the day of the service. John A. Daughtry, leader of the Sunrise Praying Band, is going to put pinger in his meeting.
Sunday was a big day, with services from early morning, until night. The usual large congregation was present at the morning service. It being Men's Day, the pastor preached on, "What Is Man?" At that service two men, named Richard and others, were followed by others, all of whom united with the church. The raising of money was turned over to the men, and Rev. W. H. A Booker, who had projected the meeting, assisted by brother Gregory and the trustees, lited the offering, giving the men one part, and the women the other. In the afternoon, Rev. Coleman preached on the occasion of the Rev. Shamir club, and that club was more than happy over the annual results.
B. Y. P. U, followed, when quite a number of young people were out to the service, and the president outlined his plans again. The pastor was present, and called attention to the great space between Sunday evenings, and suggested that steps be taken to utilize the Wednesday nights, when there were no other meetings being held. The evening service was graced by the presence of the Columbus Hill Social and Benevolent Leaf. The pastor preached on Christ the Mercy-Seat. Proceedings were made and the entering list.
St. Martin's Chapel
The able discussion by the Rev John H. Johnson, year of St Martin's Chapel, 122nd street and Lenox avenue, was based on the text as found in the 1st verse of the 14th chapter of the Gospel according to St. Luke. They watched Him in the service as "Hospitality." In defining this term, Rev Johnson said, "This time, unselfish word means more than the mere objections of polite society. Recerving and entertaining members of one's own family or social set is not hospitality in its finest sense, because in so doing, returned tasters are expected for flavor bestowed on practical Christianity is reciving and being kind to strangers without hope of reward.
"In the instance of the text, Jesus had been invited to a feast by the Pharisees, a feast to which all of the supplices, great and learned people were invited. He accepted the invitation, even though he knew that underneath the sinner of hospitality, his hypocrisy, his self-deceit, his self-cathed, spied upon, to defects which would touch the basis for His betrayal. However, the unexpected happened. A sick man appeared on the scene. A body saw him but Jesus. Christ asked the question, "Is it lawful to heal on the babbath?" His answer was practical Christianity or real hospitality. He healed the sick man
"Practical Christianity continued the minister, "is service to strangers. There has been quite a discussion likely as to the hospital which is such a place. Now we have the consolation to know that I Negroes are not welcome, neither was Christ. It is left us the command to go out into the byways and highways and compel them to come in and partake of our foot—even the lance and the pool as you receive a stranger, so do you receive your God." Flowers for the altar were contributed by Mrs Harriet Chadwick in memory of her mother. There will be a blair event beginning Tuesday, October 22, extending over four days and four nights. The program at the altar fries the food and let the building smell. Holy Communion will be celebrated at the Church next Sunday morning, September 29.
St. James Pres. Church
One of the interesting features of last Sunday morning's service in St James Presbyterian Church was the dedication of a memorial window by the late James League to the late Chuck Dyvys, president of the church, the day before the present service. Mr Dyvys was a member of the clergy in St James. Brief additions were made to Mr. Lee Whartaker, A.M. Robinson, J. H. Stickton, and a letter from D. H. Tohna, read by Mrs. Elizabeth H. Lark.
During the course of the morning service the pastor Dr. W. Lloyd Irwin, bishop of St James, attended the service in St James with a toast to two lifesigns in memory of the life of the Nativity in Great

Concerning the shooting of the young Lincoln University student, Dr. James said, "We deplore the action of a police officer in Brooklyn, shooting a young student of Lincoln University, massmuch as the facts seem to be indicative of wanton and needless use of firearms by an officer of the law. We have all respect for the law but we deplore and protest against the abuse of authority by officers of the law. From facts now available, it appears that this shooting, was unnecessary and cowardly, not at all consistent with good government. This church should long with other churches, support Orthodox or Police Commissioner with our sentiment and protest, as soon as the facts are complete in this and other similar matters."
Respecting the Brooklyn Church color line episode: "We abhor and denounce the mChristian, inhuman and sily attitude of a socalled minister of the gospel in this city. Borough of Brooklyn, who has gratuitously injected the race issue into his parish administration We believe that the majority of our people desire, and will continue to desire, to worship in churches of their own, but we also maintain the human and divine right to worship with others of other varieties of the human race, and that worship which bar any of us from each other by reason of prejudice is not worship at all but the sorrow freely on religion and the creeping hypocrisy of all human life"

A male quartet, from Lynchburg, Va., Seminary and College rendered several selections before and after the sermon. The parish held 11. Hayes, preached on "The Power of Conscience Consecured Weakness." His text, *The Lord said unto him, what is that in thine hand? And he said, a 'rod.'* He spoke how Moses was chosen to take the children of Israel out of Egyptian boudage, single-handed. How Moses hestated and gave excuses that humanly speaking, were quite plausible. How Gideon used only 300 men out of a vast number to conquer his enemies, and slew his giant foe and of many other, but how they all overcame by letting God use that which they had in their possessions.
One member was baptized. Among the many guests were Dr. Haspington of Floyds, Mr. and Mrs. Hauthunon of Los Angeles, and Capt. Th. H. Brown of Petersburg, Va. Capt. Brown made a few remarks.

Subject "Taking Jesus' clothes." He compared the taking of his clothes of his physical body, with that of the spiritual. He defined Jesus' clothes as being, 1. Preaching; 2. Form of prayer, 3. Gospel songs; 4. Charitable giving. If we use these forms for commercial benefits, leaving Christ out of them, we too crucify Jesus and cast lots for His clothes.
The male quartet sang many selections.

Siloan Presbyterian Church
Vacation season is ended at Siloam. Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor, Sunday morning, took his text from the Parable of the Good and the Bad, and began reading of the Kingdom of God, the God operating in the soul of man
Following up the line of discourse in his remarks of the previous Sunday that his greatest concern is the making of man and not the making of a church. Dr Stark took occasion to mention the attitude of the Rev. Mr. Blackshire in expressing the desire that his church be a church for white people and desiring no colored members. He expressed the opinion that this minister was concerned only in making a church and failed to conceive the great purpose to which he had been called, that of making men; that God will build His church out of redeemed men. The religion of Jesus Christ is the influence in the shaping of the lives of man; the Christian religion is based on love; Jesus Christ loves, hate has no part in the religion of Jesus Christ. It embraces all mankind.
Oscar White, of Mt Lexington avenue was received into membership
The Bible school met at 1:15 p.m. Several new pupils were enrolled and new teachers in some of the departments.
For first day in October will be the Great Rally Day of the church throughout the world. Siloam is planning for a record attendance at the morning hour of worship on this Sunday. One hundred men are expected at this service sitting as a body in the center of the church, while the young people through the Young People's Fellowship will occupy the front.
The Sacrament of the Lord' Supper will be observed at this service, also at the evening hour of worship, to be resumed beginning with this service.
The men of Siloam are organizing themselves strong. Tuesday night they will hold a meeting in the Parish House.
A rally service is being arranged by a committee of women for the first Sunday afternoon in October.
Concord Baptist Church
At the morning service on Sunday, Rev. James B. Adams prescheduled from the subject, "Seeing Jesus, and the people heard him gladly."
Preaching in the evening from the subject, "The Deeper Meanings of the Blackshear Action," he said; "Mr. Blackshear is not alone, with him stands his vestry, his bishop, and many other clergymen of all denominations in Brooklyn who represent the spirit, so there are points in making up his southern connections. He simply happens to have more nerve, coming from Texas, and dares to put in print and say publicly what he thinks. His is not the only church in Brooklyn which has excluded Negroes, for I have had white ministers beg me to ask certain colored members of their congregation to join. Those colored people know where Concord is. There is a sorry brand of Christianity imbedded in American social life. Even the colored people are not free from prejudice and hatred toward whites. Yet we have friends among them,

"There is no excuse for the existence of the Negro church not in fact, for the white. It is the stigma of slavery, not color, that brands us. Some of us though education would overcome the difficulty, the human compass refuses to hire Negro men, although the president was a some of Abraham Lincoln. We thought money would overcome it, but剩 as some of us are we can't get credit in certain white banks and circles. Only one thing has been and will be effective. Wherever the love of God has gotten into the heart of an individual, white or colored there has the difficulty beer overcome. It is the fear of us that makes the white man draw up in his seat in the street car.
The Blackshear action ought to make some Negroes change their route to heaven, if not their time table. Noise and fight will not remedy the situation or change the thinking. One thing only, the love of Jesus Christ felt, experienced and lived can avail.
The spacious auditorium was crowded Sunday night to witness the exercises of the platform meeting in behalf of good order and public safety. Dr. H. H. Proctor stated the purpose of the meeting as that of urging the colored people to refrain from offense, and the white people to abstain from discrimination and brutality.
Rev. James E. Baker, father of the boy shot in the back, told his efforts to rear a family that would be of service to the community. Attorney Stanley Douglas has spoke in behalf of the local N. A. C.

The Rev. Mr. Baker, who resides in Montclair, was accompanied by Mrs. Baker, secretary Bullock Saddler, and other leading citizens of Montclair, all of whom bore strong testimony to the fine charm of the church, were also in the audience many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Baker. Next Sunday evening Dr. Proctor will answer Dr. Blackshear on the drawing of the color line in the church. There will be a short address by Rey, Paul E.

event vf sickness, accident and death, the Pullman Company's nev
plan of insurance for employes is not,receiving the reception fron
members of the porter group that one would ordinarily expect, Among
the group, considerable grumbling and, in some instances; open re
vellion have been heard, To. be sure, the grumblers and rebels are
mostly those of the young clement among the porters which shouldn't
aust any surprise, when one tikes into consideration the general
opinion of youth towards insurance of any kind, But not all of th
grumbling comes from this clement. Some of it is heard among thos:
ho cannot Be called youth by any stretch of the imagination whet
computing age. ¢
Considering the low cost of the insurance, its tried features ant
its practical advantages to the employee, this mind, even among the
young members to say nothifig about the older ones. might strike
the casual observer as being a short-sighted and untenable mental
state,
But, on the other hand, these grumblecs have their side, Whether
their side has any substantial premise isa dog of another breed,
So far as can be leatned from various comments, it is not the plan
so much to which there is objection as it is the methods which have
bien employed in getting them to sign the plan, ‘They appear to
think that this signing is stressed too much. In plainer words they
seem to feel, if expressions are a rehable criterion to go by that sign-
ing for participation in the plan is procured too much by incans that
savor of coercion, 5 ‘
¢ A typiéal expression on the subject was made by one porter, who
was asked if he had joined the plan. “Not yet,” he replied, “but 1
suppose I will have to, whether 1 want to or not.” ’
“Bit don’t you want to?” he was asked. "While you are not an
old man, yet you are old enough and intelligent enough to realizé
the advantage of insurance”, he was reminded 25 an urge to talk.
“Oh, yes, that part is all right,” he said in reply that observation”,
but 1 don’t want to feel that 1am forced to sign for something
whether T want to or not, In eases where my money ts involved I
like to use my own judgment as to where and info what } shallput it,”
“But the cmpany is not forcing any employee to join the insur-
ance who doesn’t want to, is it?", he further was asked,
“Well, perhaps, not, But you had bette? see some of the other
porters, J have said all I care to say on the subject." |
The-next porter asked for an opinion on the subject”proved to
be a rather unsophisticated fellow. He said he hadn't read any of the
Iuerature on the subject, and furthermore, he didn’t need any insur-
ance anyway. He was a young porter, ~
Several others porters were interviewed regarding their opinions
m the matter, The gist of these opinions corresponded with that ex-
pressed by the first porter,
In diametrical opposition to the observations of these porters were
the observations of a former porter, who now-holds a clerical position
at Mott Haven Yards. He smd, when asked if 1 were true that the
employee had to join the new plan whether he wanted to or not, “that
fy not a whole truth, It is simply a half one.”
“The fact of the Matter is", he continued", most of these grumb: |:
lees and objectors haven't even read the plan's pamphlet, so they do||!
not know what it's all about. They are mosily going by what they |;
think off hand, Of course, the company is stressing the. advantages|
ci the new plan, but no cinployee is forced to become a participant if ||
he docsn't really desire to, Moreover there is one phase of the whole ||
matter that these grumblers, who are mostly to be found among the |
porter group, have overlooked entirely: This plan was not introduced |,
specifically for the porters, The truth of the thing 15, they are just];
included, s& a8 not to have it appear that the company is practicing!
discrimination in the matter, The porter group constitutes only a
fraction of the employes for whom the plan ‘was devised, ‘
"One of the proofs of this,” declared this eniployee, “is the iact |;
that the Prudéntial Insurance Company is the underwriter of the plan;| c
and you are aware, I suppose, that is had always been rimored that | /
ihis company was never keen for insuring. colored people. :
“Perhaps, in some of the districts somespressure has been brought |i
10 bear in getting the porters to sign. This, no doubt is duc to the|e
necessity of enrolling a certain percentage of cach group, which most | V
ikely were the terms upon which the company was enabled to offer| !!
he employee this form of insurance at such a low cost, At any rate,|_
> a form of insurance which no individual can secure for himself at | n
he price that the Pullman plan offers. One thing you may be positive
o1, no matter what these porters may say: This’ plan wasn't devised |!
‘olely for Negro employes of the company.” ‘
Several days later 2 group of porters was overheard discussing |
he ney plan, l.istening’to these discussions was a New York Central
vilroad conductor, When the discussions were over, he said. “Let | -
ne read that pamphlet", .
Alter persuing it, this was his obsérvation: You fellows have some-
inng here that you evidently don't appreciate, T wish my railroad | 1.
sould offer such 2 low cost insurance to its employees” "
However no matter what the casual observer may think, himeeli,|

Hilton A. Phillips, "I am filled with pride to know that you have won out in the cause for which you so nobody have striven. Dr. William Higgins, Providence, R.

"Accept my most hearty congratulations upon the recent greatest victory of the Negro community. I must have leadership it he expects to amount to anything. The Negro does want and demands leadership.

Enclosed is a small check to aid your cannage."
B. F. Morrell, Jamesstown, R. I
"I have always admired the good work that you have been doing in New York in general, and Harlem in particular, but to my mind the greatest achievement of your use is the political control from the grasp of designing white politicians and establishing colored leadership where it belongs."
Rev. Dr. Clayton Powell, Abysinian Baptist Church: "This is my first opportunity to congratulate the people of you (Moon, Niv. Friend, Friend of the People) is not only a triumph for yourselves, but a greater triumph for the Negroes of New York City and the country. Your fight will strengthen the backbone of the entire race. I am happy indeed for the little part that our paper and Church played in the triumph. We Negroes who believe that if we win in this country we must not only fight but we must pay for the privileges of fighting."
Rev. D. Ward Nichols, Emmanuel A. M. E. Church. "As was expired in The Age last week, The Negro has redeemed himself." I don't know that I have ever before and an independent spirit exhibited by any of our work. Your work has been outstanding and the voters of Harlem are grateful. In the midst of this rejoicing, however, we must keep before us that the task is not yet complete. We must register in October that we may be able to vote in November we fail to register and at vote in October we may lose all that we have gained so far. I do not believe, however, that the Negro voters will sleep on that job."

Negroes Outnumber
Whites in West Indies
Kingston, Jamaica.—A recent ethnological survey shows that of the 10,000,000 population of the West Indies, 7,000,000 are Negroes. The whites are in the majority, but Negroes exceeds whites in other islands.
The native colored Bermudian is partly descended from the American Indian, as 800 were banished by the British in the early Indian wars in New England. In some of the islands are thousands of Hindus imported as coolie labor. Only a few hundred of the original Caribs in the West Indies are surviving, the Spaniards having taken them. African slaves were brought into the islands to take their places.
