SCORES KILLED AND HURT. IN EXPLOSION INTRODUCE BILL TO STOP LYNCHING IN NORTH CAROLINA Death and Misery Caused by Sudden Explosion of 8000 Gallons of Gasoline $200,000 Worth of Property in the Colored Section of North Memphis Damaged and Numbers of People Blown to Pieces in Explosion that Rocks Country for Miles Around—Hospitals Crowded With Wounded and Dying VOL. XXI. NO.7 SCORE INTRODUC Death and by Sud 8000 $200,000 Worth of Prop Damaged and Num that Rocks Coun Memphis, Tenn., Jan. 25—With over 15 people dead, numbers injured, many seriously, and $200,000 worth of property destroyed, caused by the sudden explosion of a tank car containing 8,000 gallons of "casing head" gasoline, North Memphis was suddenly transferred from a peaceful suburb into a war-torn village of misery and death. The explosion occurred when a tank car of gasoline on the siding of the Golay-Reese Company was being opened. The exact cause of explosion could not be ascertained by a reporter of this paper at a late hour. The officials of the company believed that spontaneous combustion due to atmospheric change was the cause, while some stated that sparks from a chisel ignited the gas. Perhaps the exact cause will never be known. Andrew McKinley, who was removing the dome from the tank car when EMINENT DIVINES WILL SPEAK AT LENTEN SERVICES People Will Be Given Opportunity to Hear Great Discourses on Religious Subjects During Lent at Attucks Theatre Rev.

Scott, pastor; Miss Vashti Palmer, organist; Mr. J. S. Jones master, of ceremonies; Frank G. Russell, chorister. the explosion occurred, was hurled several hundred feet through the air. He was badly burned and died during the night in the hospital. He was quoted as saying that when he removed the cap, gas rose to a height of twenty feet, and formed a pall of black smoke which ignited and exploded. He had been in the employ of the company a long time, and was well experienced with the work of opening tank cars. Virtually no trace of the tank car was left. Pieces of it were hurled hundreds of feet in every direction. Immediately after the explosion pools of oil caught fire and caused much damage. When the explosion let go, a row of frame houses along a entire block were splintered and the occupants blown to the street or caught under the falling timbers. Most of those killed outright were badly mangled. JUDGE R. H. TE TO SPEAK JUDGE R. H. TERRELL TO SPEAK AT ATTUCKS JUDGE ROBERT H. TERRELL The local chapter of the Armstrong League, consisting of Hampton graduates and ex-students living in Norfolk and Portsmouth and the suburban sections, will present to the people of Tidewater, Sunday, February 6th, at the Attucks Theatre, Judge R. H. Terrell, of Washington. This meeting will be commemoration services for General Samuel Chapman Armstrong, the founder of Hampton BAPTIST CONGRESS GOES TO LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS BAPTIST CONGRESS GOES TO LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS Nashville, Tenn., Jan. 24. (National Negro Association Service).—Little Rock is to entertain the 1921 session of the Sunday School Congress forces June 8th to 13th. This action was confirmed by the meeting of the Board held in this city today. Five cities were running neck and neck for these honors. They were Muskogee, Okla.; Columbus, S. C.; Galveston, Texas; St. Louis, Mo., and Little Rock. It developed that the matter had been before the Board for the third time and that the decision was only reached today. Notices were at once sent to the leaders at Arkansas, conveying the information to them. The Secretary of the movement, Rev. Henry A. Boyd, and the chairman, Dr. C. H. Clark, authorized the announcement and they All the property immediately adjacent to the Coylar Reese Co., was occupied by colored people, therefore they made up almost the entire casualty list. The detonation of the explosion was heard throughout the city and the thousands who flocked to the scene added to the confusion and made difficult the work of the police and volunteer rescue parties. Besides the damage in the immediate vicinity, window glasses within a radius of several blocks were shattered by the concussion. All hospital facilities were crowded and special beds were brought in. The moans and groans of many could be heard from the outside. The churches and various organizations immediately got busy and organized themselves so as to assist in the work of succoring the unfortunate. Many people missing are believed to have been burned or buried beneath the wreckage. MERRELL K AT ATTUCKS Institute. An unusual program will be presented. The Hampton quartet will sing. Owing to the large number of Hamptonians in this district and the interest this community manifests in the institution, a large crowd is expected. Judge Terrell is one of the biggest men the race has, and it will be worth the while of everyone just to hear him. H. LINK JOHNSON STARTS THINGS IN GEORGIA HUMMING Attanta, Ga., Jan. 25.—Action and real action began immediately after the Central State Committee of the Republican party of Georgia convened. Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson. National Committeeman from Georgia, was present and was the high-light of the meeting. Mr. Johnson's faction dominated the meeting and he made several vigorous attacks on C. P. Goree and M. II. Karnes, chairman and vice-chairman respectively of the committee. Their resignations were asked for and it was proposed to dismiss them should they fail to resign. Neither were present at the meeting. Attempts to "trade" Federal patronage in Georgia for campaign contributions, violations of instructions of the committee, efforts to elect a "hybrid Democratic ticket" and "forgery" --- NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, JANUARY 29, 1921 THE CHEMIST One of the most important positions in the Government service in Chicago is that of chemist in U.

FIRST STEP TO PREVENT LAWLESSNESS TAKEN BY SOLONS IN NORTH STATE on the part of Krunes were charged in a series of sneezes and statements to the committee. Henry Lincoln Johnson, who was loudly cheered when he made his first appearance before Atlanta Republicans in some months, also launched an attack against the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, and said that after March 5th he will appeal to the Republican Postmaster General to bar the organization's literature from the mail. He also declared that President-elect Harding is pledged to enactment of an anti-lynching law and that he, Johnson, will stay in Washington until it is passed. STREETS IN THE COLORED SECTIONS WILL BE PAVED City Mgr. Ashburner Gives This Assurance to Citizens Included in the streets to be improved in City Manager Ashburner's recently outlined program for the improvement of the thoroughfares of the city, reaching an expenditure of nearly two million dollars, are Avenue A, Anne street and Rugby street. Mr. Ashburner gave this assurance to the residents of the colored sections of the city in answer to inquiries directed to him. To Mr. II. C. Young, who inquired of the city manager the extent to which streets in Huntersville, Barbounville and Lindenwood would be improved in the new program, Mr. Ashburner stated that Avenue A had been placed on the paving program, and also the connection from the end of Barre street by Rugby to Church street. To Dr. R. L. Williams, who wrote the city manager in behalf of colored friends the information was given that Anne street would be paved. Improvement in the colored sections was begun by Mr. Ashburner in the paving of Goff, O'Keefe and Barre streets and Washington and C avenues. It appears from Mr. Ashburner's announcement that some work will be done on colored streets each year until they are all put in modern, sanitary condition. Washington, D. C., Jan. 26.—The Leconi Social, and Literary Club of Pittsburgh, Pa., through Hon. Robt. L. Vann, has recently made available a scholarship of $50.00 for a deserving student at the Howard University, Washington, D. C. Raleigh, N. C., Jan. 26—A bill aimed to prevent lynching was presented in the legislature of this State last week. The bill got a favorable committee report immediately after adjournment of the Senate on last Thursday. It is designed to prevent the crime of lynching or lessen it by removing the immediate object of an infurious mob from the clutches of the mob. The bill provides an amendment to the law which will not require the presence of the defendant in the court room when motion for removal to another county is made. This will make it possible to move a trink from the county to another without bringing the prisoner from an adjacent county or the State prison, where he may have been carried for safe keeping, and placing him in the court room at the time the motion is made. Had such an amendment been in force recently when the Goldsboro mob threatened the lives of three men, the mob trouble in Wayne county could have been prevented. Kills Hogs Weighing 1,286 Pounds (By The Associated Negro Press) Dublin, Ga., Jan. 26—M. N. O'Neal, a colored farmer living in Rentz, this county, has just killed four Poland China hogs whose combined weights amounted to 1.286 pounds, with an average age of 18 months. O'Neal has been raising hogs for sometime, and at the Oceean fair held in Dublin won the first prize for the best display of home-make meat. His hogs, weights 270, 300, 313 and 400 pounds, respectively, were peanut and corn fed.

CARVER NOTED AFRICAN OPENS THE EYES MISSIONARY TO OF CONGRESSMEN LECTURE HERE Washington, D. C., Jan. 28.—The Director of the Census today issued a preliminary statement of the white and Negro population of Norfolk, Va., as shown by the Census taken as of January 1, 1920. The population of Norfolk, as announced May 24, 1920, was 115,777, comprising 72,243 whites, 43,477 Negroes, and 157 others (Chinese, Japanese, and Indians). The figures for 1910 were: whites, 42,353; Negroes, 25,039; others, 60. The white population constituted 62.4 per cent of the total in 1920 and 62.8 per cent in 1910, while the Negro population constituted 37.5 per cent of the total in 1920 and 37.1 per cent in 1910. The increase in the white population since 1910 was 28,390, or 70.6 per cent, while the corresponding increase in the Negro population was 18,338, or 83.2 per cent. Of the total population of Norfolk in 1920, the males numbered 60,191, or 52 per cent, and the females, 55,386, or 48 per cent. In 1910 the corresponding figures were: males, 32,867, or 48.7 per cent; females, 34,585, or 51.3 per cent. The ratio of males to females was 108.3 to 100 in 1920, as against 95 to 100 in 1910. Washington, D. G., Jan. 25.—The first step in the securing of an increased duty on peanuts in the permanent tariff bill was taken here last week when a number of men prominent in the industry appeared before the committee. Ten minutes time was allotted to each one to make his plea. After all the white men had spoken, Prof. G. W. Carver, who has charge of the research laboratories at Tuskegee Institute, was called upon. When Prof. Carver came forward bringing a large hand bag, many of the white congressmen tried to laugh him off. This disturbed Prof. Carver not in the least. He was rather slow in opening his bag laden with over a hundred peanut products he had tried out in his research work at Tuskegee. But as he laid his various products out one by one on the stenographer's desk directly in front of Chairman Fordney and then told what each was by name and number, he literally woke up the whole committee seated on the platform overlooking the committee room with its hundred or more hearers and soon had them each and every one leaning forward over the railing to see what was coming next and to get every word spoken. With characteristic remarks as to the value of this or that product and with sharp repartee in reply to questions from the committee he got them so completely under his sway that the end of his allotted time of ten minutes there came cries for him to go on, and then for twenty minutes longer he wafed them on the wings of unlimited possibilities for the peanut, if the American grower was only given such protection as would insure a full development of the industry. The occasion was a great inning for Dr. Carver well as for the peanut. The questions asked him about himself as he went along showed that the committee was as much interested in him and the great work he is doing as in the products he was making from the peanut. In addition to the spellbound attention given him through his talk, Chairman Fordney personally expressed his gratification for his most unusual presentation and then requested him to prepare for the printed records of the committee such statements as he might wish in connection with the peanut and its possibilities. Prof. Carver simply proved again that it is not the color of a man's skin that makes the man, but it is what he has in his head. He is one of the foremost authorities on the peanut.

C., Jan. 24.—The Director of the Census today issued a preliminary statement of the white and Negro population of Portsmouth, Va., as shown by the census taken as of January 1, 1920. The population of Portsmouth, as announced July 22, 1920, was 54,387, comprising 31,104 whites, 23,242 Negroes, and 41 others (Chinese, Japanese, and Indians). The figures for 1910 were: whites, 21,560; Negroes, 11,617; others, 13. The white population constituted 57.2 per cent of the total in 1920 and 65 per cent in 1910, while the Negro population constituted 42.7 per cent of the total in 1920 and 35 per cent in 1910. The increase in the white population since 1910 was 9,544, or 44.3 per cent, while the corresponding increase in the Negro population was 11,625, or 100.1 per cent. Of the total population of Portsmouth in 1920, the males numbered 28,011, or 51.5 per cent, and the females, 26,376, or 48.5 per cent. In 1910, the corresponding figures were males, 17,609, or 53.1 per cent; females, 15,581, or 46.9 per cent. The ratio of males to females was 196.2 to 100 in 1920, as against 113 to 100 in 1910. NOTED AFRICAN MISSIONARY TO LECTURE HERE Dr. James E. East, who has recently returned to this country after spending eleven consecutive years in South Africa, will tell of his thrilling experiences in trying to civilize raw natives and of how he won his way into the confidence of the hostile British authorities. Whole villages have been transformed from naked savages into civilized and well-trained groups of workers. Witch doctors have given up their conjurations and gone into the Gospel ministry. Wicked and cruel polygamus chiefs have released their concubines and become workers in the church. Families have moved out of mud huts into comfortable homes. But all of these accomplishments of eleven years have been accompanied with risk and danger. This is what makes Dr. Einst's story of his life in Africa so intensely interesting. Crowds that have taxed the seating capacity of the country's largest churches have gone to hear him in Pittsburgh. New York, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Chicago and Louisville. It is a rare treat to have a man like Dr. East to visit Norfolk at this time. And it is believed that a mammoth crowd will gather at the First Baptist church on Bute street to hear him this Wednesday night. Dr. East will preach Sunday morning at the Shiloh Baptist church, Rev. J. H. Ashby, pastor, and at night for the Second Calvary Baptist church, Rev. C. P. Madison, pastor. There will be no charges to hear Dr. East, but offerings will be lifted to help him in his great work. RACES CLASH AT NORLINA Henderson, N. C., Jan. 25.—Arguments that started over a trade in apples some weeks ago terminated in serious trouble at Norlina, a small town a short distance from here, last week. Four white men and three colored are reported to have been wounded, several of them fatally. The wounded men were taken to hospitals in Henderson and some placed in jail. Sunday night a mob of white men gained entrance to the jail and secured two men by the name of Bullock and Williams, carried them a short distance into the woods and riddled their bodies with bullets. Home: Guard, troops were ordered by Gov. Morrison and quiet prevailed with no further trouble antitraumatized. a8 JANUARY 23, 1921 * BY AN AMERIGAN aero | Charles V.

It Is the hope of the United States Treasury Department, which Is behind the movement for the organization of tha natlon-wido campalzn, that It soon wil have hundreds of thousands of mem- bera. It Is tho Idea of tho Treasury De- partment that these clubs can be or- ganized in mills, fectorles und other industrial plants; in colleges, normal schools and high schools and In com- munity centers generally. ‘The gov- ernment, during 1921, will Issue a spe. cial $1 Treasury Savings Stamp, It ia the plan that ajf members of "The Povgr a Tpven Plu pledga. them Selves to buy” at least one of those new $1 stamps each weok. ‘While the $1 stamp, Nke the 25-cent ‘Thrift Stamp, does not bear interest, the government offers a $25 full inter est-bearing Treasury Savings Corti cate for twenty $1 stamps, plus a small additional amount of cash. This of fer, it 1s hoped, will add great stimulus sto the government savings movement and will bo the means of Inducing many people to acquire the valuable habits of thrift and naving. 4, War Savings Stamps (worth $5 wher they mature), will be Issued through. out the yenr, as also wil! the $100 and $1,000 Treasury Suvings Certificates During January of the new year the $5 stamp may be had for $4.12. It i increase In value 1 cent each month. The January prico of tho new | be $20.60, its value increasing 3 cents a month. The $100 Treasury Savings Certificate may be bought during Jan- Mary for $82.40. Its monthly Increase In value fs 20 cents.

SATUEDAY, JANUARY 29, 1921 THE LEAN FOLLOW THE FAT YEARS The lean years always follow the fat years. In the days of the patriarchs it came about every seven years. In the times in which we live and in the life of each individual it depends. Harvey's Weekly, in discussing "A Prelude to Prosperity," among other sensible things, says: "It would be miraculous if the years of plenty and too often of profligency through which we have been passing were not followed by a period of comparative leanness, and of loss. That is a commonplace of the world's economic history. It would be well if those who made the greatest gains were to bear the greatest burden of loss, in net profits. Unfortunately, that cannot always be assured. Losses, like the rain, fall upon the just and the unjust without discrimination. But there is at least one thing that can be done, if only 'people will do it. We mean that, just as in flush times all strove to profit from them as much as they could, all shall now with equal readiness strive to hear the inconveniences and even the losses of the readjustment period, and thus expelite and facilitate the return to a normal state of affairs." . The Journal and Guide preached this doctrine when the war was raging, work was plentiful and wages were high, and it has been preaching it since the close of the war. Those who saved when it was easy to do so can now congratulate themselves while those who spent us they went and now have nothing are to be pitted for their misfortune, which their innocent wives and children must also endure because of their shortsightedness. Let us all do what we can to help the fortunate over the readjustment times of self-denial and want. ARKANSAS SEPARATES STATE AND FEDERAL ELECTIONS Some States are like some persons, they do not learn anything by experience and they do not forget anything by the like token. They are in hot water and find it impossible to adopt the course that would fetch them out of it. We have watched the course of such persons and States closely, and read of such in the history of the past, mythological and mystological, and we find it invariably so with them that, having adopted the way to destruction, they seem unable to retrace their course and come out with safety and satisfaction. In all such cages it has been for us to ask, "Who hath blinded their eyes?" A great many politicians of the Southern States fall into the class of persons who refuse to learn or to forget anything. They go on from one position of error to another, courting always the Nemesis that is sure of overtako and undo them. The State of Arkansas, by its legislature, has just made one of those mintakes which indicate that its politicians learn nothing and forget nothing. The legislature has just passed a law which separates the State and Federal elections, the State elections to be held in October. The reasons for the change are stated in blunt terms to be to prevent the "State from again being disgraced, as happened in the late elections, of having a Negro candidate for the Governorship of Arkansas," and with the hope that the "Negroes will not concern themselves with local elections for State and county offices, but concentrate their attention on Federal elections." State and county elections are the ones that concern the citizen more closely than the Federal elections, as, in the main, the citizen is governed by State and county administration rather than by Federal Administration. Afro-American citizens do not understand this to be true as generally as they should. NO COLOR LINE IN CHRISTIANITY? NO. BUT? The Protestant Episcopal Church is generally regarded as the most aristocratic and exclusive denomination of the Christian churches of the country. It is also regarded as among the broadest and most generous on the question of race brotherhood and helpfulness. Its bishops are men of lofty standards who seldom descend to the smallness observable in the bishops of other white denominations. We were, therefore, all the more surprised on reading the following opinion of Rt. Rev. Troy Beatty, co-adjutor bishop of Tennessee, delivered in a diocessan convention, at Memphis, recently: "There is no such thing as a color line in Christianity and the colored priest in our church stands before God on the same footing as the white priest. And we must show our Christianity to the Negro. We can show it when our wash is brought home on Saturdays, or when we send out the nurse, if we are so fortunate as to possess one, in the afternoon, and also in our chicken houses at night." We question if there is another bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the country who would be guilty of delivering any such opinion as Bishop Beatty is alleged to have delivered. Of course there is no color line in Christianity. Whenever one appears, wherever one exists, there is no Christianity whatever in those who draw it. There can be no appeal from this view of the matter, because there is nothing in the New Testament upon which to base such appeal. How many church denominations, how many churches, in this country draw the color line? There is no Christianity in any of them that do it. Bishop Beatty would have us to understand that he and his parishioners have no contact whatever with Afro-Americans who may not be grouped as washer-women, nurses and chicken thieves. The two former are good and necessary persons, and much to be respected in the places where they are, and especially in the church when they are members, but they do not make up the major part of the membership of any of the churches and they should not be classed with chicken thieves, as Bishop Beatty has done it. The head of the Christian Church rebukes Bishop Beatty to his face. BAPTIST CONGRESS (Continued from Page 1) declare that in all probability there will be no reduced round trip rates for any religious gatherings. They contemplate an increased attendance over last year. It will be remembered that just a year ago this meeting was held in Springfield, Ill., where memorial services were held for the late Abraham Lincoln. More than twenty thousand Sunday schools and one million five hundred thousand Sunday school workers are effected by this call. Frederick Douglass Day (By The Associated Negro Press) Buffalo, N. Y., Jan. 28—A few weeks ago, we learned that the name of Frederick Douglas had been rejected for the Hall of Fame and many of our men and women felt very bad because this illustrious man had not been chosen. We have the opportunity to place his name forever in the Hall of Fame at Anacostia, D. C., by making his home so beautiful that visitors from all over the world will make a beaten path to "Cedar Hill." Four years ago the Trustee Board of the Douglass Memorial Home sought the help of the National Association of colored women and in ten months we paid off the mortgage and saved the home from any further embarrassment. We did not restore. We simply redeemed; then the war came on and we could not finish the job. I called for ten thousand dollars for restoration, and during these years, in addition to wiping off the mortgage, we have raised an additional sum towards the restoration of four thousand dollars. To completely restore the home at least $6,000.00 is needed, and today we are sending out what we hope will be the last appeal to Club women and race men and women to fittingly celebrate the birthday of our illustrious Douglass by appropriate exercises, and by raising as large a sum as possible. Every organization or individual that contributes $25.00 will have their names written upon the parchment that will hang forever upon the walls of the home, thus showing to our children the names of men and women who desired to make of Cedar Hill our Hall of Fame. Mrs. C. J. Walker was the largest contributor, and to her memory a special tablet will be erected when the home is restored. The old Board of Tuskegee will meet in Washington, March 3rd, at the call of their president. The Board representing the National Association of Colored women will meet in Washington, March 5th, 1 p. m., at Cedar Hill. We desire that both boards will meet the public on the afternoon of March 5th, from 2 to 5 p. m., and every colored man and woman who comes to Washington for the inauguration may consider this as the invitation to journey to this historic place, and here let us again receive inspiration by walking through the rooms made hallowed by the immortal Douglass. Saturday, February 12, 1921, will be known all over by loyal race men and women as Douglass Memorial Day.

AFRICA SEEKS HOME RULE (By The Associated Negro Born) (By The Associated Negro Press) London, Eng., Jan. 26.—British West Africa is the latest country to seek home rule. A mission has_arrived to urge a number of reforms in the administration of the four West African colonies and protectorates, Sierra Leone, the Gold Const, Nigeria and the Gambia, says the London Times. The mission seeks the creation of a legislative council which will be composed of members chosen half by the crown and half elected by the people and for a house of assembly which would have complete control of the revenue and expenditure. The judicial system, in particular of Nigeria, is criticized by the mission, which states that "it is the practise to appoint Europeans who have not received any legal training and who are not competent to exercise judicial functions." Among other suggested reforms they seek the establishment of a West African University; the removal of the color bar in the medical service and the introduction of immigration laws to prevent the influx of undesirable aliens. Howard Univ. Students Contribute to Near East Relief Washington, D. C., Jan. 26.—The Howard University faculty and students recently held a meeting in the University chapel in the interest of Mr. Herbert Hoover's European War Relief movement. In transmitting the contribution of $5678 to Chairman Arthur S. Moses, of the European War Relief Council for the District of Columbia, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer of the University, stated that although the amount was small, it testified to the very great interest of those connected with the University in helping those who are so greatly suffering in Europe at this time. Excelsior Brass and Reed Band's Annual Meeting The famous Excelsior Brass and Reed Band held its regular annual session Sunday, January 23, 1921, at the Norfolk Auditorium. It was one of the most delightful and harmonious meetings the band has ever had. Our success during the year of 1920 was certainly great and advanced our record more than 50 per cent. To our patrons we wish to extend our appreciations and gratitude and sincerely trust that we may be better able to serve you during the future. During this meeting was held the election of officers to serve for the ensuing year. The results were as follows: W. E. Lawrence, president; C. H. Butts, vice-president; A. V. Williams, secretary; C. T. Butts, assistant secretary; J. S. Cannon, treasurer; Oscar Fields, major and sergeant-at-arms; Geo. Elliott, Sr., director and manager; Benj. Jones, assistant director and manager. Executive board: R. A. Brown, chirman, F. L. Smith and Clarence Jones. The sick committee was appointed by the president: Richard Fields, chairman, and Wm. Jones. There were various good speeches made by the elected officers, after which the meeting adjourned.

Show This to Some Unfortunate NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE PACKED HOUSE GREETS JUDGE HARRISON A capacity audience assembled at the Attucks Theatre Sunday afternoon to hear Judge Wm. H. Harrison's mastery oration on the timely theme, "Our Day in Court." The Judge's reputation as a logical thinker and a convincing speaker is such that the mere announcement of his coming is sufficient to summon a mammoth meeting of seekers after the truth. JUDGE WM. H. HARRISON This is by no means his first visit to Norfolk, and judging by the enthusiasm of his reception, it is not likely to be the last. It seems, moreover, that the Judge is no less enamored of Norfolk than she is of him. In commenting on the business progress of Norfolk generally and Church street especially, he expressed the wish to repeat his visits until Church streets from end to end should give such evidences of progress as are constituted by the Attucks, Tidewater Bank, Brown's Bank, etc. In the treatment of his subject, the Judge represented the Negro as on trial before the court of public opinion to answer indictment upon the charge of being black. Because of the manifest injustice of the charge, counsel demurs to the indictment, moves that the same be quashed and the client acquitted. The court promptly over rules the motion and requires the accused to plead. In defense of his innocence, defendant calls as witness, the Holy Bible, the Federal Constitution, the several State Constitutions. Upon their successive and exhaustive examination, they severally assert that there is no authority for the assumption that the circumstance of color constitutes a crime. Pursuant to the policy of prejudice, however, the court declines to be guided by the evidence and peremptorily declares the defendant guilty as charged. Unable to obtain justice at the bar of the court of public opinion, the defendant appeals to the court of Eternal Justice. This speech was acclaimed by all as the best the Judge has yet made. 28 GRADUATE AT PETERSBURG Petersburg, Va.—Sunday, January 23rd, marked the beginning of the ceremonies of the mid-winter commencement sensor. It proved to be a very interesting day. At 9:30 in the morning appropriate exercises were held in honor of the twenty-eight seniors who are graduating from the Teacher Training Department of the Sunday school. The students graduating had been under the instruction of Miss Isabel S. Frazier and Miss Felicia D. Anderson. Special music for the occasion had been prepared by Miss Anna L. Lindsay. The address to the class was delivered by Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, superintendent of the Industrial School for Girls, at Peakes. Mrs. Barrett's address was timely, instructive and inspiring. Her subject was, "Vision, Vitality, and Victory." It was developed in a very interesting manner. The diplomas were presented to the class by Dr. John M. Gandy, who, in a few well-chosen words, pointed out to them the value of such training, and urged them to go out into their several communities and help to deepen, broaden, and purify the religious life of the people there. From a small beginning this department has grown rapidly until it now has an enrollment of two hundred sixty-seven students. Miss Eddnn M. Colson is director of the Teacher Training Department, and Prof. C. W. Florence is superintendent of the Sunday school. At 4 o'clock, the sermon was delivered to the students who will be graduated from the Institute at the regular mid-winter commencement on January 28th. The speaker of the occasion was Dr. Ryland, of Richmond University. Dr. Ryland is a quiet but impressive speaker. His message had a ring of truth and sincerity which made it very effective. His subject was, "We Are the Salt of the Earth." The commencement exercises will be held in the Institute chapel Friday evening, January 28th, at which time Dr. Clark, of Virginia Union University, will deliver the address. Colored Population Washington, Jan. 25.—The colored population of Roanoke, Va., in 1920, the census bureau announced today, was 9,300, or 18.3 per cent of the total population, as compared with 7,924, or 22.7 per cent in 1910.

DuBOIS IN LECTURE, "PAN- AFRICAN CONGRESS" AT BANK STREET CHURCH --- On Wednesday evening, February 2, 1921, the citizens of Norfolk will have the rare privilege and honor of hearing two of the most intellectual men of the race. These two men are worthy of emulation, and each could be taken as an ideal in his sphere. Zeta Lambda Chacec, Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, has arranged to have these two distinguished men give to the citizens a most wonderful and encouraging message, and will therefore give their hearers unusual messages. No man, woman, or child can well afford to miss such a rare treat. The two men of whom we speak are the Rev. Chas, Satchel Morris and Dr. W. E. B. DuBois. Rev. Morris is a man of no mean ability, and needs no introduction to a Norfolk audience. For here he has labored hard and zealously, and some of his best work has been done within the gates of Norfolk. He is a man pregnant with facts, and ripened by experiences. His ability as an orator is known throughout the State, and if only Dr. Morris were to speak, the people would be richly rewarded. Dr. Morris will have the honor of introducing Dr. DuBois, who will give to the audience facts concerning the "Pan African Congress," which he had the honor of being its first president. Dr. DuBois, editor and noted scholar, had the distinction of calling this congress in Paris, France, December, 1918. During this time the whole country was in a very unsettled condition, and especially Paris, the seat of the French Government. But Dr. DuBois, with his rare ability, far- DR. W. E. B. DUROIS sightedness, and shrewdness, succeeded in getting a hearing in those times, when the very souls of men were being tried, and was therefore able to call and establish an organization. Dr. DuBois will be filled with first-hand information, and in a masterly way relate the facts and events leading up to and pertaining to this important assemblage. In September of this year, the second meeting will be Errors Error proof b tion of your mo proof safe. The Burrough recently installed racy.

TIDEWAT ```markdown ``` Errors Are Ancient History Error proof bookkeeping is just as necessary for the protection of your money on deposit with us as is a modern burglar-proof safe. The Burroughs Bookkeeping Machine which we have recently installed, handles our figure work with absolute accuracy. Its calculations are done by parts of hardened steel---it can't make a mistake. The operator feeds the figures into the machine, which makes all additions and subtractions automatically. A completely posted ledger sheet or depositor's statement, with every item printed in the proper column, comes out. An absolute and automatic proof of every entry is given by the machine method. There is no danger of a mistake being made in your account, or in the account of any other of our depositors. Besides affording this accuracy insurance to you and to us, the Burroughs handles our figure work in about half the time formerly needed. This gives us time to do other things--to improve our service to customers in every department of the bank. Come in, any time, and see the Bookkeeping Machine at work. TIDEWATER BANK & TRUST CO. P. B. YOUNG, President G. H. FRANCIS, Vice-President LEVI G. B. J. EUGENE DIGGS, Gen. Counsel M. R. JAC called at Paris, at which time very essential and important issues will be thrashed out. Dr. DuBois is a hundred per cent. American and believes that every American citizen should and is entitled to every right and privilege vouchsafed him under the Federal Constitution, regardless of "race, color, or previous condition of servitude." He is an able speaker, and will handle his subject in such a way that all will know and understand. Every clear-minded, wholesouled and liberty-loving American respects, and honors such a man. The citizens of Norfolk and vicinity will have the opportunity to hear this man in person, and since the Norfolkians are one hundred per cent Americans and are in hearty co-operation with such men, it is believed that they will avail themselves of this opportunity to hear Dr. DuBois. Zeta Lambda Chapter purposes to establish scholarships for worthy students. In order to encourage, foster and promote thrift and intellect among the youths of our race, and particularly those of Norfolk and vicinity, who are desirous of attending out-of-town schools, to this end she is bringing Dr. DuBois to help in this noble cause. It is earnestly hoped that every true and race-loving American will respond to such a cause and help to do things that are going to count in the years to come. TARBORO, N. C. The B. Y. P.

Foreman) The executive committee of the Nor- folk Civic League met at the office of Dr. &. F.

There were also present Several interested citizens who are prominently active in movements for civie betterment and Political advarcement for the race. Prominent among the items that came up for serious consideration were [the covdition of many of the streets in sections of the city where the bulk of colored citizens live, and the con- dition of manazement of some of the city schools. It was pointed out by some of the speakers that at least two of the city’s best schools for colored Were virtual fire traps and that they were not only likely to precipitate a serious disaster involving the loss of many young Rives, but are a constant menace to all surrounding property. The meeting was a very enthusias- tic and interesting one, and after thoroughly considering ‘the various matters that came up for discussion the committee and those present de- cided to resume the regular meetings of the League, beginnins Thursday, February 3rd, ‘and organize a city: wide movement for the betterment of conditions. Several ladies were present and showed a marked interest in the ¢x- nlanation by the chairman of the brouder scope of activities covered in the general progrant of the Learue. All voters, actual and prospective, male and female, are invited to join the League, attend its meetings, ‘and enter into its diseussions, as it is only through a large, united centralized ot- xnnization that we can hope for relief from the conditions that oppress us.

He impressed upon his hearers the meaning of a pure heart. At 8 p.m., he chose for his theme, Eccl. 12:1—"Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth." The truth that he laboured to impress his congregation with was to remember their Creator in the days of youth, when the heart will readily receive his goodness. The B. Y. P. U. held a very interesting program, at which time the new officers were installed. Total collections for all departments, was $1157.93. BANK STREET BAPTIST CHURCH The services at the Bank Street Baptist church last Sunday were as beautiful and inspiring as the day, not withstanding the fact that two of them were the last sad rites of the dead, for they, too, may be beautiful with all of their attending sorrows. As usual, the services were begun promptly at 11:30, with an anthem which expressed the spirit of worship which was very obviously the sentiments of those who had attended upon the services. The pastor preached from Psalms 125:2, "As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth ever forevermore." The words of this text with the very apt application which was placed upon them remain with us, as a great source of protection and comfort. At 1:30 o'clock and 3 o'clock, respectively, the funeral services of Mrs Jethro Washington and Sister Mary Johnson, were preached by the pastor. At the evening services, Rev. Bro Mills preached. The collection for the war was $223.30. Four persons connected themselves with the church. The church and pastor extend a very cordial welcome to all.

Offering for the service was $44.00 MT. ZION A. M. E. CHURCH Rev. J. H. A. Martin, passr. Although last Sunday was a beautiful day, the morning service was not attended as well as it should have been. However, those who took advantage of the spring-like morning were made to feel glad as they listened to a splendid sermon delivered by our pastor, Rev. J. H. A. Martin, taken from St. Mark 6:40—"Jesus Near." The Endeavor meeting opened at the usual hour, G. o'clock, and the topic "Foreign Mission in Asia," was beautifully discussed by Mrs. Lelia Coaps. At 7:30, Rev. Martin filled the pulpit again. He used for his text, "The Voice of Jesus." St. Mark 7:40. This message, was truly helpful as well as inspiring. We have planned a series of services, beginning the first of February and continuing until the last of the month. Come out and help us to have a full-house every night. Strangers, visitors and friends are always welcome. :: RELIGIOUS NEWS :: GRACE P. E. CHURCH The third Sunday before Lent was gloriously spent.

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Last Sunday, before an intensely interested and multitud ous crowd of worshippers and seckers after righteousness, Rev. Bowlnig turned with full force the light of the Gospel with all the fiery yet tender rays upon his hearers, which resulted in thirty additions to the church, including twelve conversions. The pastor spoke from the subject, "An Eventful Day in Samaria." Text, 2 Kings 6:24. The funeral of Bro. Samuel Burton followed this service. The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. were largely attended. Many visitors were in attendance. The work of the Holy Spirit was again manifest at the evening service. Sinners were made to see the light; backsliders were reclaimed and the unchurched lined up for service in the Master's vineyard. The concensus of opinion among the audience was that this sermon was one among the greatest of their lives. Rev. Bowling spoke from the subject, "The Untold Half" Text, 1 Kings 10:7. There were 14 accessions and 4 conversions during this service. This meeting closed just everful day in the home-like church. Baptism next Sunday morning, January 30th.

Fife, was not present, owing to a recent attack of rheumatism, was confined to his bed. The officers and teachers being inspired by their last Christmas service and program, have started out to make this year their best year. Our pastor, Dr. West, who is a Sunday school worker, gave great encouragement by his singing and very helpful explanation of the lesson. A full house greeted the pastor, Dr. West, at the morning service, who preached a powerful sermon from the subject, "Prayer—The World's Greatest Lover of Power"—1 Tim, 2:1. Collections were good. One accession Mrs. West was very kindly received on her first visit to St. John. She at once began work with the Mite Society, asking for an after collection. The pastor and wife ate dinner with Supt. Fife and wife at their residence. Mr. Eugene Wilson, of Oceana, is back home for an indefinite stay. Albert Weston, a young man recently coming to Oceana, accidentally shot himself through the hand while preparing for a hunting trip. Rev. Mr. West was called to Washington, D.

The Sunday school opened up with its superintendent and teachers at their posts of duty, all well enthused and fitted for the occasion, having studied the lesson thoroughly, were well equipped instruct all who attended, and surely all were well benefitted. A beautiful banner was presented the school by Mrs. Mercer, which so truly brought out the theme in the lesson----"Service," for this is one way of exemplifying your service for the Master. The school not only received the banner with much thanks, but will always look upon it with high favor and return great praise and pray for its donor. The Sunday School Union will meet at this school next Sunday, and quite a large attendance is expected from the various schools. The public is invited to these exercises, which promise to be a great union of schools for the Lord and Saviour. Rev. Cooke preached an all stirring sermon at the morning hour, assisted by Rev.

Matt. 19:16, 21, 22. In his sermon he showed to us the great importance of giving up the thing that is most dear to us for Christ and follow Him, as it is the only way that God can use us. So effective was the message that thirteen persons came forward to unite with us. The Lord greatly used his messenger throughout the day, and it closed with a great success for the Master and his Kingdom. Twenty accessions and a collection of $45.71, for which we greatly praise the Lord.

S. Treasury Department. Secretary of the Treas- ury Houston has unnounced that the issue of Government Savings Sccuri- ties will be continued throughout 1921 and that the work of the Savings Div- sion of the Treasury in promoting national habits of thrift and safe in- vestment will be continued and inten: sified, Among no group of citizens has the us¢ of these safe and profitable forms of saving ard investment been more satisfactory and beneficial than among the Negro race and their continuance will enable many workers to continuc habits of thrift and provision for the ‘uture the loss of which would be 9 aational as well as an individual ca. amity. . The Tronsury announces that the aeeds of the workers have brought about the determination to issue twe idditional savings securities during ke coming year, These will be a $1 Savings Stamp and a revistered Sav- ns Cortifieate of $25 denomination. jeeretary Houston in making the an- ouncement says: “Two new ‘Treasury saving securi- ties will be issued during the ycar, a 31 Treasury Savings Stamp and a $25 Treasury Sayings Certificate. The $1 tamp is non-izterest bearing, is sright red, imprinted on a green tint, and bears the portrait of Alexander damilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury. The $25 certificate is sim- lar in design ard terms to the $100 and $1,000 Treasury Savinys Certifi- sates, also offered in 1921, to matuce January 1, 1926, “The new securities supply a $1 unit for saving and a rewistered Gov. ernment sceurity in the $35 denontina. tion, which ean be conveniently pur. chased throuzh the accumulation of he $1 Treasury Savings Stamps More important still, the new securi. ies will complete w most attractive ine of Government savings securities the $1 stamp and the $25, $100 and $1,000 rexistered Treasury Saving: Sertifieates, and thus place the Treas. ary Savings movement on a solid rence-tim2 basis.

A. Jan. 20.—The Brazilian government has out the offeial stamp of its approval on the plins of the Brazilian-Ameri- san Colonization Syndicate, It has seen officially determined that the ret colony of American colonists shall be set up in the State of Matto Srosso within a fow miles of Cuyaba, he eapital of the State. This situation is in the very center +f one of the richest sections in the vhole Brazilian Republic. The present value of the land is $3.25 an acre. Inder the intensive farming system smployed among the greater number af American farmers, in ard out of the cotton district, this value, in a short time, should’ literally jump to en times this value. Virgiv soil, an squitable climate and the kindly’ su; vervisory interest of the national Brat tilian government combine to make this ehance a golden one in every: par ‘cular, Particular attention has been given to the housing problems that will naturally arise in the colony for solu- tion. Ample provisions have been provided hy the national government to meet the demands in this connee- tion, When a settler has paid his $800.00 for his 100 hectares (247 acres), a three-room house will be built for him at a cost of $250.00, ‘which must be paid in advance. ‘This ‘olan insures a high grade of settlers for the solony and makes it an easy matter to maintain a high degree of community co-operation. The first zroup of settlers will leave New York City on the 2ist of next June. No “olor line,” a climate fit for the gods, a soil rich as gold in its productive power, and a government strong in its dispensations of the law, yet kindly in its official supervision of the people's interests, all go to make Brazil a most desirable “garden spot” for all and any who want to sreathe the pure social and industrial air of a true democracy. “This is the glee ¥ have long desired to know rbout,” ‘shouted an enthusiastic pros. rective colonist not long siree. “Herc a where I throw my hat in the ring of a new life and praeced to live fo God ‘and humanity.” Enthusiasm ha: even gripped the natives since th ‘zovernment has given its approval t the plan of the “Brazilian-Americar Syndicate. Old residents of Rio Jan tire declare that-the American Negr ‘a the only kind of emigrant to en sourage to come into the country. Be sides ties of blood they possess th |tropical nature in a degree that wil make them easily assimiable an therefore easily nationalized, In an: TWO ADDITIONAL NGS SECURITIES | redeemable sutstantially on demand, should prove ineresingly attractive, particularly to the multitude of small investors. : “ith these considerations in mind, the Treasury is.committed to the con- tinued sale of Government. savings se- curities, and feels that as time goes on continuous sales of savings securi- ties over the counter, at ppst-offices and banks throughout the country, should play an increasingly important part in the current financing of the Government. “To this end, the Treasury is also committed to the continuarce of the work of the Savings Division, in Washington and in the several Federal Reserve districts, This organization endeavors to promote-the popular pur- chase of Government Savings Securi- ties; develops and protects the secon- dary market for Liberty bonds avd Victory notes and other war issues of Government securities, and unites the efforts of all helpful agencies and movements, finneia‘, ‘industrial, edu- cational, commercial and social, in a broul saviazs campaign to make per- ma ent the habils of saving and in- vestment in. United, States Govern- ment securities. Its work along these fines will be intensified in 1921. “The Treasury Savings Movement has already demonstrated its useful- ress by its efforts to promote sound economic conditions throughout the country and disseminate: sound econo- mic doctrine. In fact, the work of the Savings Division last year, not only in promoting the sale of Govern- ment Savings “Securities and in strengthening the secondary market for Liberty bonds, butvin establishinz widespread habits of thrift and saving, has been frequently recognized as meeting a great national need. ‘That veeornition has been strikingly em- phasized by the requests of great_na- tional organizations that the savinis work be continued and by their offers of active co-operation in the move- ment. “The work of the Savings Division has been splendidly successful in the schools, with the children ard as well with the leaders of educational thought in America. As a result, the committee of State Superiitendents of Public Instruction, which has just met in Washington, has decided ‘to urge evrey State Superintednent and Com- missioner of Education to install thrift cou:ses in every schoo! and at the same time provide for the practise of the principles taught by offering means for sound investment. “In respording to these deniands from xreat natioxal organizations, the Savings Division will intensify during 1921 its campaign to spread brondeast the essential facts relative to wise saving and spending and the continued development of new capital.” —BUY W. 8.
