Sordia Race Men Fight Back W Mob of Whites. Des Fighting Continued. To Stop Slaughter --- By Associated Negro Press Tulsa, Okla. June 2.—For the past two days this city has been the scene of the most sordid race riot in the history of America. Attacked by thousands of white ruffians, Afro-Americans have been fighting as best they could to protect themselves, their families and their property from destruction. Up to this time ten blocks of colored homes have been destroyed by fire started by the mob and the members of the fire department and National guardsmen on the scene have been of no assistance to the colored population, they having to resist the onslaughts of the mob with whatever weapons they could command. Fight Starts After Arrest of Colored Man The mob started its attack after the arrest of a colored man charged with attention to white girl elevator operator. The authorities seeing the apparent danger of lynching spirited the man away to another city, and folloled him. The police, the alleged criminal they started their attack upon the colored population. Many Killed and Wounded is the melee which followed not less than 175 white and colored persons were killed and wounded. The fight GEORGIA CITIZ GOVERNOR HI Make Public Statement Exposing Crime and Justice the Guilty P (Special to Journal & Guide) Atlanta, Ga.—More than fifty prominent Georgians, white, signed a statement Sunday night declaring that Governor Hugh M. Dorssey's booklet, "The Negro in Georgia," in which he gave publicity to one hundred burning at the stake and other unfair treatment of Afro-Americans in Georgia, was supported by unimpeachable evidence and also denying that the committee on race relations was in any way associated with the Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The statement declares that the committee politicians seeking offices by fanning the flames of race prejudice, criminals by their lawless acts bringing condemnation against Georgia, murder, peonage, contracts and propaganda are being to infuse the minds of both whites and blacks with reference to race relations. "To the People of Georgia: The undersigned citizens of Georgia were called together April 22, 1921, by Governor Hugh M. Doryse to consider the 'Statement as to the Negro in Georgia,' prepared by the governor. After careful consideration, we organized the committee on race relations, approved and accepted full responsibility for Governor Doryse's statement, and sent copies of it to the press of Georgia, the judges, sheriffs, and members of the general assembly, to urge the Negro of the State, inviting suggestions from all. Hearing again, at the call of our chairman, on May 26, to consider further the matter of race relations in the State, we desire to set forth certain facts and principles, which we believe, will meet the approval of the majority of Georgians. "Governor Doryse has placed before us 125 cases of the alleged misreatment of Negroes called to his official attention in the last two years. Only two of the cases have been seriously questioned. The majority of them are confirmed by letters from sheriffs, solicitors-general and the report of the governor of the State, and by letters from business men and citizens whose standing cannot be questioned. The mistreatment shown ranges from burning to beating and threats to kill. "These 135 cases added to the 415 lynchings of Negroes which have occurred in Georgia in the past thirty-five years, shock the conscience of all Georgia. They demand a remedy. He who would oppose an intelligent effort to correct such conditions should be, and will be, recognized either as an enemy to the common good, or a man lost to reason. "A three-fold danger, economic, civil and moral, threatens the State. "The contests of Georgia not one Negro remains where the Negro has fed from farms, or escaped peonage or a cruel employer, but cause ruffians have threatened him with death if he stays and works. His employer has been willing to protect him, but at last the night-riding terror has driven him away. Norfolk Journal and Guide was carried into the colored section and the mach applied the torch to th: business places and homes which made the affair more horrifying. Soldiers Fail To End Slaughter "The National Guard came upon the scene, but instead of rounding up the white rioters and stopping the slaughter every colored man in sight was either shot down or arrested and placed in jail. No real efforts are made to care and punish the white members of" the sands of homeless colored people had to flee for their lives to the country outside of Tulsa for protection. Property Valued at More Than Million and Half Destroyed Tulsa, Okla. June 2.—Quiet was restored here today, following two days of massacre and destruction of colored property valued at more than one million and a half dollars. Whilst many of the places destroyed were cheap wooden structures a large number of fine homes, business houses, a fine church costing $25,000 were lost. It is believed that many of the colored residents were burned alive in their homes and many who were wounded and taken to hospitals will not survive. ENS DEFEND UGH N. DORSEY Endorsing His Action In Attempting to Bring to perpetrators MUST HAVE NEGRO LABOR "Our farms must have Negro labor, if agriculture is to continue the basis of our wealth. "But worse than the loss of the Negro labor is the ultimate anarchy that must result, if lawless groups in any county are permitted to continue to drive people away at will. "The spread of lynching is seen by all. We condemn with unutterable loathing the unmentionable crime so often given as an excuse to justify lynching, but we recognize that, while lynching has not stopped that occasional crime, the crime of lynching has grown. A woman has been lynched in Georgia for talking indiscreetly, she protested against the murder of her husband. Another, within the last ninety days, was drowned by a mob by night. She was said to have helped one of her race members to crime to escape. Men accused of trivial offenses and whites have been lynched, and none knows how many mistakes have been made. "The most sacred rights of person and property are put in jeopardy for all, when cowardly mobs can deny the rights of indictments and trial by jury and lynch men and women at will. "The moral peril is greater. The Negro does not and cannot threaten white supremacy. He neither desires nor expects social equality. The Negro is not so stupid. He asks only for justice. And no civilization can refuse to give him justice and survive. History shows that the stronger race deny justice to the weaker people despite first its own moral fiber and ultimately brings destruction upon itself. "Therefore we ask our fellow citizens to unite with us in upholding white supremacy by maintaining the principles of righteousness and justice upon which white supremacy depends." "We have no affiliation with 'The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People,' or any other similar organization within or without the State of Georgia. WHAT COMMITTEE ASKS We advocate— 1. Education for all—none should be left to learn by chance those things which civilization demands of man regardless of color. 2. Upholding and protecting the purity of both the white and Negro races. 3. The enforcement of contracts and of the law. 4. The immediate arrest of all persons charged with crime, their protection under arrest, a speedy and fair trial, and the quick punishment of those convicted. 5. The support of all public officials in the performance of their duties; the condemnation of those who fail through fault of their own to uphold the law. 6. Separate, but decent sanitary and adequate accommodations for both races. 7. The removal of causes for friction, fear, suspicion and ill-will between whites and blacks by intelligent conference and co-operation between NORFOLK, VA., SATURDAY, JUNE 4. 1921 Start Riot Investigation Tulsa. Okla. June 3.—(Special)—Following the receipt of a letter from Governor Robertson ordering a thorough and complete investigation of the riot here, Judge Valdean Biddison called a special grand jury to investigate the riot. The Governor condemned the sheriff's office and police department in his letter and asked that their conduct be investigated. Representative citizen also met yesterday and condemned the city and county law enforcement officials, holding them responsible for the heinous outbreak. DENIES MAYOR PLACE ON RELIEF COMMITTEE. A committee of representative citizens was formed to care for the destitute and helpless colored people who were victims of the riot and Mayor T. D. Evans was denied a place on the same. WHITE CRIMINALS SHOULD BE SHOT, FORMER MAYOR SAYS Former Mayor E. J. Martina, who was selected chairman of the relief committee, made a statement in which he said: "Most of this damage was done by white criminals who should have been shut and killed. As the final outcome we must rebuild these homes, see that these Negroes get their insurance, and try to get their claims against the city and county. HALF MILLION RELIER FUND TO BE RAISED A $500,000 subscription relief fund has been started by the white citizens to repair the damage done. The houses owned by colored people will be reconstructed, but business places and houses rented by white people will not be cared for from the fund. PROMINENT COLORED PHYSICIAN AMONG DEAD Dr. A. C. Jackson, one of the most prominent colored practicing physicians was shot to death by members of the mob as he fled from his burning home. W. C. ATWATER BURNED ALIVE Comes To Untimely Death When Gasoline Stove, With Which He Was Said To Have Been Operating A Still, Explodes Mr. W. G. Atwater, a well known young man of this city, residing on Hansom avenue, Riverview, came to an untimely death last Saturday morning at 9:30 in an outhouse in his back yard, when the same was set afame by the explosion of a gasoline stove, which is said by officers investigating the accident to have been in use in the operation of a still. When the explosion occurred Mrs. Atwater went to the rescue of her husband, but the heat was so intense, she did nothing to save him. The fire divided to respond to the alarm, and when the flames were finally extinguished, Mr. Atwater's body was found burned to a charcoal, even beyond recognition. The house in which the explosion occurred was completely destroyed by the flames. His funeral was conducted by Rev. F. W. Williams, Monday, from his home and his remains were deposited in the Calvary Cemetery. For several years Mr. Atwater was a prominent figure in business circles here.

ALL THE ABOVE ADDRESSES ARE IN WASHINGTON D. C SAYS RACE NEW SPIRIT OF BETTER OFF RACIAL UN- IN SOUTH DERSTANDING Better Class of Both Races Working Together Are Better Off For Better Understanding and Progress Thomaston, Ga.—That members of the race are better off in the South than in the North in business, agriculture, commercially and professionally, is the opinion of the Rev. R. B. Holmes, president and founder of the Holmes Institute in Atlanta, in an encumination address before ten thousand people, white and colored, here May 30th. He told his hearers that the better class 6 people of both races are co-operating and working for the best interest of all the people. "Success in this work will make all sections of the Southland a safe place in which our people can live," he said. Afro-Americans in the United States have accomplished more in sixty years here than they have in any other part of the world, the speaker asserted. He stated the colored people in Georgia were more than $800,000,000 worth of property last year. Delegations from Upson county and surrounding counties participated. The emancipation proclamation was read by Miss Carrie B. Sherman, Rev. G. W. Dykes, principal of Thomason colored schools, was master of ceremonies. Music was furnished by the Thomaston Concert band.

Enter Store Through Coal Hole: Coal B Chicago, Ill., June 2.—Early last Wednesday, Patrolman Harry Dean discovered Lee Hunt, 18, of 3206 S. State street, standing behind an open coal hole in the side-walk in front of a store at 3230 S. State street. "Say officer," volunteered Lee, "my dog fell down there and I can't get 'im out." Just then the head of William Caldwell, 23, of 3220 S. State street, appeared through the hole. Deas helped him out. "Somebody left that open and I fell in," he asserted. "Fell in by myself, officer. You'd ought to pinch these careless folks." The patrolman waited. In a minute out popped Oscar Johnson, 23, 69 E. 36th street. He came out so rapidly he didn't have any explanation. The trio—all colored—we booked for burglary. Convention of Amity Between White and Colored Races Has Wholesome Influence (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June.—Pleas for the white and Colored delegates to the convention for unity between the Colored and white races to spread the new spirit of racial understanding were made by speaker at the morning session or the inter-racial Convention, held in the First Congregational church, 10th and G streets, northwest. Representative Theodore E. Burton, Charles Lee Cook of Louisville, Ky., and Louise G. Gregory were the speakers. "The races must dwell in amity in this country because they live side by side," said Mr. Burton. "The Colored race should be recognized by white men, not only because the Constitution of the United States requires it, but by the divine power of God." "Both-races," he continued, "must learn to understand each other." He told the delegates that if a crime was committed by a Colored man his people should not hurt him by bringing him to justice. At the same time, he added, "If a crime was committed and the offender unknown, and a Colored man happened to be around, people should not jump to the conclusion that a Colored man committed it. We are to take an important place among the nations of the world," said Senator, "but we must first put our house in order. One of the most serious blots on our national life is that of lynching. This is not against the Colored man alone, but against the white man as well. I am ready to do whatever can be done, by constitutional amendments or otherwise, to remove this frightful blemish from the nation." "Hope that the convention may become the stepping-stone to the final achievement of human and universal brotherhood," was expressed by Charles Lee Cook, a manufacturer of Louisville, Ky. "The World," he said, "is looking and has always looked to this country for social justice. There is a great work ahead." he continued, "in bringing racial understanding. All must face it and help to achieve it, and not bury their heads in the sand of optimism." He pointed out that individuals must do their part in this great work. "Let's try to vindicate the divinely appointed mission of America. Break every bond of misunderstanding." He told the delegates to go out from the convention and spread the new spirit, a stronger spirit of Christian gratitude. "The white and Colored are one in origin and one in destiny, for from God we came and to Him we return," said Louis G. Gregory. "It is for us to consider in a way that is material how to increase inter-racial harmony."

SEVEN AFRO-AMERICANS SENTENCED IN CONNECTION WITH NORLINA RIOT White Men Who Started Trouble In Little North Carolina Town Go Scott Free While Colored Men Are Severely Punished LILY WHITES LARGE NUMBERS OF SOUTH WITNESS N. T. S. ON RAMPAGE COMMENCEMENT Warrenton, N. C.-Jerome Hunter was sentenced to eight years in the penitentiary by Judge E. H. Cramer last week and six other colored men were given minor sentences for participation in a free-for-all battle which occurred at the little town of Norlina, two miles from this place on the 22nd of last January, in which several white and colored men wounded. The mule grew out of a dispute between a colored man named Bullock and a white merchant who had sold him a basket of bad apples. After the affray the colored men who Would Bar Afro-Americans from All Considerations at Hands of Republicans. Have Ear of Administration Washington, D. C. June—"LILY WHITE," the infamous notorious, fearful, sacreligious, and hell-hearted dame of southern debased ideas, is on the rampage again! If "Lily" is permitted to run house, as now appears to be the Republican program so far as the South is concerned, may God help America and the G. P. President Warren G. Harding, then whom no Thick expent of human justice, by word of mouth, owes occupied the Executive chair is necessary being invoked to acquiesce in a program that has for its object the elimination of "Colored" Americans from absolute consideration in southern politics. This amazing condition of affairs is thorny presented in a four column, even tempered, frank editorial in the Atlanta Independent, issue of May 21st. The editorial sets forth the establishment of a "Committee of One Hundred," which seeks to reestablish the Republican party among whites in Georgia, and very obviously has for its ultimate object, the elimination of Henry Lincoln Johnson, and his following, both white and Colored in Georgia politics. President Harding has according to latest information as published in the Independent, recognized the committee, and thus Chairman Will H. Hayes of the Republican National Committee, declares his decision in the premise is without appeal. Slemp and Hitchcock Confer Congressman Busem Slemp, of Virginia, and Frank Hitchock, former Chairman of the Republican National Committee, and former Postmaster General under Taft, have been known by The Associated Negro Press to have conferred, and it is well-founded opinion, that the subject of Southern political conditions, as they affect Colored Americans, was thoroly discussed. Congressman Slemp is chairman of the sub-committee of the Republican National committee, that has the matter of dealing with the delegates to the National convention, under considerations. The subject of patronage has become nothing, as compared with it, in fact, on the subject of patronage, Robert R. Church of Tennessee, had an extended conference with President Harding about three weeks ago. The conference was one of confidential exchange of opinions and policies. Mr. Church has not apprised the Associated Negro Press of the details of the Conference, but it has been learned from reliable sources, that President Harding was painfully Trank in letting it be known that there are to be certain limitations on the administration in appointing Colored men to office. In other words, the Harding Administration, in seeking honestly to apply the tonic of justice, will not go so far as to appoint Colored people to positions that will bring forth bitter comment from white southerners. So serious has become the political status of the Race in the Republican party, that all reactionism has ceased, and all the well-known leaders thrust the country are presenting a solid front to the common enemy of the times, "Lily Whites." Democrats Taking Notice Democrats in Washington, and throut the South are taking special notice of the moves" of the "Lily Whites." Officeholding, and the spoils of office have been the magic combinations (Continued on page four) PRICE FIVE CENTS E RIOT AMERICANS IN CONNECTION ORLINA RIOT Trouble In Little North Scott Free While Colored unished were connected with the affair were rounded up by the authorities and placed in the Henderson jail and the following night two of their number were taken out and lynched. The other colored men were then removed by Rudiegh penitentiary for safekeeping. The authorities have done nothing to bring to justice the white members of the mob who lynched the two colored men or any of the white men interested in the affray at Norlina. Thus is justice meted out to Negroes here when they attempt to protect themselves from violence at the hands of white riffians. LARGE NUMBERS WITNESS N. T. S.

American Rule In Hatian Republic "It is impossible to study . . . the Nerro occupation, and believe that the presence of black troops constitutes a constant terror and a horror to the Germans . . . The crime . . . is . . . rather against the black troops themselves than against the Germans. They are virtually slaves . . . forced to military service in a cause in which they have no interest and which they do not understand." Thus writes, Gannett from Mainz, Germany, after a hand study. His article appears in *The Nation* for May 25th. About the "Horror on the Rhine," German officials told Mr. Gannett, "that this propaganda was a commercial enterprise conducted for profit." The article censures the conditions of the occupation, and describes in detail not only the conduct of the black troops on the battle but that of the white troops as well. *The Nation* publishes in the same issue the complete text of the Haitian Memoir to the United States describing the atrocities perpetrated by the military occupation of the Republic of Haiti, and concluding in part: "It is the most terrible regime of military autocracy which has ever been carried on in the name of the great American democracy. "The Haitian people, during these past five years, has passed through such sacrifices, tortures, destructions, humiliations, and misery as have never before been known in the course of its unhappy history.

The union labor employed in these occupations insist that they will not agree to a reduction of war time wages and other privileges, and that, as Mr. Samuel Gompers, the president of the American Federation of Labor, expresses it, they are going to hold on to the advantages they have, even if they fight to do so. It has been demonstrated that the wages in those industries, based upon war prices and conditions, are out of all proportion to what may be termed normal wages, and are not in keeping with the sharp decline in the retail prices of all foodstuffs except chickens which are still retained at thrifty-five and forty cents a pound with the feathers on them; the prices being such as to make living tolerable, if there had been a corresponding decline in the price of housing and heating of houses and freight rates. NEGRO CHAMBER OF COMMERCE That the proper organization of those of the race that are engaged in business and allied pursuits is fundamental to any sort of success is a fact that is now universally recognized. It is only by combining into a workable machine the resources of those engaged in such pursuits as are entitled to be classified under the head of business, industry or commerce can the strength of these elements be made effective for any purpose. The aim of the Negro Chamber of Commerce of Norfolk is to correlate the various groups that are engaged in gainful pursuits and utilize their combined forces for the mutual good of all. The name adopted may appear to some to be a little ambiguous in the light of the program which embraces so many things not directly associated with commerce or trade, but it is the indirect connections of projects promoted and fostered by the American chambers and associations of commerce that have given these organizations their elastic meaning in our national economy. Just as the white Chamber of Commerce takes an interest in everything that promotes the welfare of the community, will the Negro Chamber of Commerce take an interest in The tight chested attitude of organized labor in the trades we have mentioned threatens the peace of the Nation. In his address at the dinner celebrating the one hundred and twenty-fifth anniversary of the New York Commercial, in New York, last week, President Harding placed emphasis upon the importance of doing justice among ourselves. The Afro-American people, who get so little of real justice in the administration of State and Federal Governments, hope that the President will have in mind his preachment when dealing with questions affecting their interest which come within the scope of executive and congressional action. The President said: is able to be at her home and is™improving. "Miss Matilda Hale was in Mt. Hermon last week, visiting her people, who have been away." *Rev. W. M. Ming, A.

You are in that minority thriftless class and when opportunity knocks at your door you'll not be able to grasp it as your neighbor has done. There is nothing so remarkable about success. To succeed it only means that you have to save—make a little sacrifice—do without a few luxuries you are now indulging in.

As we sow so do we reap. If we sow strife we reap strife. To say that mankind cannot so shape their affairs as to prevent wars is to admit that individuals cannot so shape their affairs as to prevent personal conflicts, more or less sanguinary. That is, unfortunately the state of the case. We find that is so in our management of our domestic and personal affairs. We are making always for violent outcomes by our selfishness and greed and utter disregard of personal rights and the right of minorities. Standing in the presence of the voiceless soldiers who gave their lives "over there," we can all pray with President Harding that "it must not be again." but unless Nations and individuals cease from the greed and cruelty which exact more profits and reaches after more territory that belongs to the neighbor, there will be plenty more of war such as we have just had, and from the effects of which we are still staggering, and shall long stagger. If we wish for peace and happiness in the world and on the earth we must practice what we preach we "must do unto others as we would that they do unto us," or we shall have strife as between individuals and as between Nations, as we have been having from the beginning of time, as far as we have record. THE NEW GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA HOWLS There is no law to prevent the Governor of a State from beating the air with his hands and howling with his mouth, and doing other unusual stunts that attract attention to him and the work he has in hand. In the matter of howling a new Governor has as many rights as an old Governor. Fortunately for the American States, few Governors avail themselves of the liberty to howl and thereby attract unusual and vulgar attention to them and their ways. Thomas W. Hardwick was elected Governor at the late election, along with the unspeakable Thomas E. Watson, to be a Senator in Congress, for Georgia.

FEDERAL BOARD CONFERENCE AT HAMPTON Hampton, Va.—The large purpose of home-economics instruction in vocational schools and classes is self-improvement, together with home and community betterment," declared Adelaide S. Baylor, Washington. D. C. federal agent for home economics, Federal Board for Vocational Education, at the close of the first five-day conference for the colored teacher-training staff of the Southern region, which was recently held at Hampton Institute. Miss Baylor, who was in charge of the conference, said: "Nine of the thirteen States with institutions approved by the Federal Board for training colored teachers of home economics, had a representative present at Hampton. The following States were represented: Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee Kentucky and Louisiana. The missing States were: South Carolina Georgia, Mississippi and West Virginia. Five States supervisors of home economies assisted with the conferences at Hampton - Guyton Tongue, Mississippi; Martha Thomas, Tennessee; Edith Thomas, North Carolina; Ivol Spafford, Alabama; and Ora Harty Avery, Virginia. "Hampton Institute made available all its facilities for making the conference a success. Carrie A. Lyford, who is the director of the Hampton Institute School of Home Economics, gave her entire time for five days to assist with the conference program, which included (1) a field trip for community study, (2) a visit to, and study of, the Hampton Institute dormitories, (3) a half day spent in the Whitty School, which is used as a center for observation and practice teaching by Hampton students, (4) a visit to a typical local, rural colored school; and (5) an inspection of the industrial exhibit of the colored schools of Elizabeth City County, which was displayed at the county court house." Program Based on Needs Miss Baylor also stated that in order to carry out the vital purpose of vocational home-economics, there must be developed a program which is based on actual individual, home, and community needs. The field trip, for example, showed the teacher-trainers in home economics that, since housewives are caring for poultry, cows, and gardens, instruction must be given in the common activities of the home, both within and without, with a view to increasing the amount of productive work and thereby enlarging the family income. While the teacher" said Miss Bnybor, "is the chief factor in training for home-making, her valuable time and energy must be conserved and her instruction must be made more efficient by the use of suitable plant and equipment, including charts, posters, exhibits, illustrative materials, bulletins, text-books, reference works, typewritten and mimeographed notes. "If the community is known by a skillful teacher, there will be available people who can contribute from their experience and furnish valuable materials for the teaching of home economies. Such people will include, for example merehans, manufacturers, dealers in special wares, gardeners, poultry raisers, and small farmers." Conference Program While the conference was held under the direction of Anna E. Richardson, chief of the home-economics educational service of the Federal Board for Vocational Education; assisted by State supervisors and other experts, every member of the colored teacher-trainer stuff participated at some time in the conference discussions. The conference program included the following topics: Purpose of Instruction in Home Economics, Adelaide S. Baylor; Family and Community Needs. Carrie A. Lyford and Guyton Teague; Training Teachers in Service, Valemann A. Davis and Emma N. Mayberry; Supervised Home Management, Martha Thomas and Carrie Lyford; Special Methods in Home Education. Carrie E. Richardson; Supervised Observation Teaching, Ivol Spafford; Whittier School Guyton Teague and Edith Thomas; and Teaching, Ivol Spafford; Whit and Clothing, Carrie L. Watson. Example of Co-Operation The conference at Hampton Institute stressed the importance of providing good equipment, carefully-made plans, and competent supervision in all home-economic work, and, above all of developing the best type of womanhood. The conference was thoroughly helpful and valuable to all who attended it. The conference made important contributions to the home-economic program for 1921-1922. Charles F. Langworthy and Caroline Hunt both of the office of home economies in the U. S. Department of Agriculture, were present for a portion of the conference and co-operated in the work dealing with sources and uses of illustrative materials. Lula H. Crim, supervisor of the high schools and colored schools of Shelby County-Tenn. and Carrie L. Watson, instructor in clothing, colored schools of Washington, D. C., were in attendance and contributed to the program. Colored Teacher-Trainer The colored teacher-trainers included Evalena A. Davis, State Normal School, Prairie View, Texas; Emma N.

MANNING GETS LIFE PRISON TERM Boss of Georgia Murder Farm Sentenced By Newton County Jury Tuesday (Special to Journal & Guide) Covington, Ga., June 2.—In direct contravention of the testimony given at his trial for the murder of one of the colored men killed on the John Williams murder farm, Clyde Manning was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Newton County jury yesterday. According to the Georgia law a prisoner who gives sufficient evidence to prove that he committed the crime under fear of the penalty of death should be acquitted. All of the evidence submitted in the case was in Mannings favor, but the jury decided otherwise. Mannings attorneys made motion for a new trial, and the motion will be argued at a future date. Congressman Madden Stirs Convention Washington, June—Congressman Martin B. Madden, of Chicago, was given an ovation when he concluded his address before the "Convention of Amity between the Colored and White Race," at the first Congregational church. Congressman Madden's subject was "Duties and Responsibilities of Citizenship." He began saying: "Let us hope we have reached the hour when we can bid good night to the day that is gone, and look forward to the day when the people of all races will be given justice." Congressman Madden spoke of duties of individuals, and the duties of the government in the responsibilities for the protection of citizenship. He plead for equality of opportunity in every day life declaring that he firmly believes there is a dawn of a new day when merit, regardless of color, will get its just reward. "The World War opened the door of opportunity for education. More than 400,000 Colored citizens became soldiers, forming one tenth of the total army. There was no discrimination in that and there should be none in civil life," declared the Congressman. The Congressman referred to the terrible condition of lynching, and enraged, and spoke of the Lynching bill which is now before the judiciary committee of the House. He stated that he believes that the bill will be reported favorably, and advanced on the calendar. He said he felt assured that the measure when passed would be signed by the President. Special tribute was paid to the progress of the Colored people of Chicago, where Mr. Mauldin has represented the district for a number of years. In this district there are thousands of Colored citizens and the Congressman spoke of the splendid commercial progress made there and the good will enjoyed between the thoughtful people of the community. Disabled War Veterans May Get Hospital Washington, May 29.—Construction of a hospital costing $2,000,000 near Tuskegee Ala., to care for disabled colored former service men is under consideration by the Government, it was said at the treasury. It is expected, officials said, the institution will have 1,000 beds. Establishment of the hospital near Tuskegee is being discussed, officials explained, as the co-operation of the famous educational institution there is desired in working out plans for the disabled former service men of the race. The new hospital is being considered in line with the general hospitalization plan of the treasury for providing adequate medical and surgical facilities for veterans of the World War. LARGE NUMBERS WITNESS N. T. S. COMMENGEMENT LARGE NUMBERS WITNESS N. T. S. COMMENGEMENT (Continued from page one) in saying that the message he delivered to the 1921 graduating class of the National Training School of Durham, N. C., was the best I ever heard, and Dr. Shephard deserves credit for having secured such an able speaker for his commencement orator this year. The degree of O'Kelly's presentation address of the graduating class was not only classical, but not as well as impressive. Prof. O'Kelly is without question a great teacher and an expert trainer of young men and women. Music, both instrumental and vocal, rendered on this occasion charmed the audience to the extent that each rendition brought extenuated applause. In keeping with the religious training this school gives to its graduates Dr. Shephard presented each with a copy of the WARDEN JACK SHEFFEY Holy Bible with the request that its teachings be adhered to all through life. Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, the curate principal of the Palmer Memorial School, Sedalia, N. C., presented the prizes won by the students, but before doing so gave the students a wholesome talk on what education means to those who finish an educational course in a Christian school. Mrs. Brown's charming personality coupled with her pleasing address received loud applause. President, Rev. James E. Shepherd, D. R, robed in the regulation college cap and black gown, standing in the center of the rostrum, said in part: "The object of this institution is to raise up educated leaders for my race, especially an educated ministry; for the ministers who lead the people not only spiritually but in all things material as well." He said, "This school has no endowment and has been maintained during the past ten years of its existence through tuition offerings. At one time it was through which disaster because of increasing indebtedness but through the generosity of its friends it is practically free from debt at the present time. Its immediate need is a second dormitory for girls. Many young women have not been received because of inadequate equipment. The boys' dormitory is adequate for the present. I wish to acquire a strategic piece of property adjoining the school, the money for which will thankfully received." Rev. R. Spiller, D. Durham, N. C., offered prayer and exercise and the commencement course of the 12th National Training School to close. Before closing this article, I wish to make known his印象 of the National Training School plant at Durham, N. C., located south of the city, about one mile from the city. This school plant covers thirty-two acres of land, though hilly as it is. I was charmed with the architectural beauty of the buildings and the wonderful skill of the landscaper who laid out the walkways throughout the campus and decorated them with power plants, shrubbery and trees, to the extent the sight of this campus is not the sight almost beyond description. All the buildings were newly painted inside and exterior in short, if I were a sanitary inspector of these buildings and grounds, I would readily make the National Training School 100 per cent on cleanliness as well as an ideal place to train boys and girls for useful service in world's affairs. President Shephard told the writer that his school stands in urgent need of $25,000 for current expenses, $3,000 to purchase additional farm lands, the option of which has been extended to February 15th next. "We need a new dormitory to cost $50,000. We are doing at endowment of $250,000. Ten years ago there was no National Training School today it ranks with the great school in the country. Our enrollment was 236 students. The number would be 450 if we had the dormitory room. Every dollar counts at our school." said he.

Bowling, pastor of church, and ended with a program at the West Point Cemetery, Monday. Although the clouds were hanging heavy all day and occasional showers came down thousands of people lined the street to see one of the best, if not the best, memorial day parades ever staged here.

ASSEMBLY FOR SUPPORT "As Georgia have been stirred and moved by a study of race conditions in Georgia and the South to try to serve our State and people. We ask and believe that we shall receive your support." LILY WHITES OF SOUTH ON RAMPAGE (Continued from page one) that have held southern Democrats together, with anti-Negro propaganda as the big issue. Now, it appears, that this very propaganda may be the means of a marvelous change in southern conditions. It is known that in certain states of the South, where democrats have become alarmed at this "Lily White" Republican activity that certain suggestions being made to certain Colored leaders to the effect that, if Democrats should be endangered in office holding they will form a coalition with Negroes, with certain political understandings, and permit them to vote. This matter is having very serious attention, according to exact information coming to The Associated Negro Press from most reliable sources. On the other hand, Negro Ropublicans thrust the North, where their votes count in close years, have been outspoken in their expressions that no "cute tricks" can be pulled off by the Republican National Committee, that will not find reaction in Senatorial, Congressional and gubernatorial elections in 1922. Practically every newspaper in the country has set forth editorial opinions backed by expression from the people, that bear out this statement. The influence of the Negro newspaper in molding and directing public opinion is one of the most remarkable things of times. The letter of Charles D. Hilles-National Committeeman from New York protesting disfranchisement; the expression of William Pickens on the subject, in a special contribution to The Associated Negro Press, have had weight.

Inter-Racial Co Operation Effective (Bs The Associated Negro Press) Tuskegee Institute, Ala., June—The effectiveness of inter-racial co-operation, as promoted by the Inter-Racial Commission throut the South, was clearly shown a few weeks ago when a prominent white citizen and a Colored minister of the town of Tuskegee. Alabama had a misunderstanding concerning the shooting of a very valuable dog. During a mad dog scare in the section of Greenwood, which is adjacent to the Tuskegee Institute, a valuable bird dog owned by a young white man of the town of Tuskegee was shot. It appears that the dog was not mad but was on its way from the veterinary hospital of the Institute where it had been treated for another affliction and the killing was an unfortunate mistake. The misunderstanding was caused by an inaccurate report of the shooting, which implied that the dog had been maliciously killed. Wherupon the young man with two others went to the Colored man's place of business to demand an expulsion. Although the parties had no official relationship with the Institute, a few of the Institute teachers- who resided in the vicinity arranged a conference between Principal Morton and Warren Logan, Treasurer of the Institute and Drs. L. W. and F. M. Johnson, two of the leading white citizens of the town, who are relatives of the owner of the dog. Following this conference the misunderstanding was cleared and a satisfactory settlement of the difference was quickly adjusted. 270 Diplomas Awarded At Tuskegee Tuskegee Institute, Ala—The fortieth annual commencement exercises of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute which began Sunday afternoon, May 22, with the splendid commencement sermon by Dr. Charles W.

This represented the largest class graduating from the Institute in its forty year of existence. Features of the Exercises The features of the exercises of the day were: the annual alumni address by Jessie O. Thomas, class of 11, field secretary of the Urban League, Atlanta, Ga. the annual address by Dr. P. James Bryant, pastor of the Whett THE SOUTHERN AID SOCIETY OF VA., Inc.

C., June 2.—J. Q. Nolan, one of the lecturers of the Ku Klux Klan in a recent speech, said: "The best friend in the world to the Negro is the southern white man. I urge them not to heed the advice of those who would lead them astray after political gods. I have friend- ship for the Neuro race, but this is a white man's government and must remain so."

Tueker) For the sake of comparison, what ix the difference between a tyrannical form of government and a democratic for of xevernment? Your intuitive answer would be: “The tyrannient form, of government is the yevernment of a tyrant, or ons, while the democratic form of govern- ment is (he government of the people.” Right. Now, you may ask the question, “tn which form of government is there the ireater possibility of tyranny?” An inadvertent reply would be: “The government whose rule and laws are the pleasures of one has the erester possibility of tyranny.” But, a cxlm consideration of the question would bring forth a different reply. As we know, the executive of the democratic form of government, or the president of any local order, no matter what the organjzation may be, is decided through the strength of the majorities, And, through the comfort of numbers, tyranny is even more pos- sible in a democratic form of govern- ment. “How?” Like this. ‘The subjects of the tyrannical form of government can conspice tp overthrow their ruler; while, on the other hand, those placed in authority through the strength of majorities have very little or nothing of that nature to fear. To illustrate the possibility of ty- fanny through the strength of ma- jorities, take 50,000,000 people who are subject to the same laws and ac- conmodations. How far could 38,- 000,000 go in imposing their demands over the 12,000,000? Suppose that same 38,000,000 ‘would not allow the 12,000,000 to worship as they desired. Could 'the 12,000,000 do so. anyway? Suppose all the Masons and Knights of Pythias in the United States would desite to drive out all the Odd Fel- lows. Could? they accomplish their desire? “Suppose the three largest | powers, would make certain demands of the three smallest nations. What ‘could the outcome be? ~ Of course such examples wouldeem ‘outrageous and far-fetched, but they furnish excellent illustrations to show the tyrannical possibilities in “ia- poritiés, Whether in the affairs of ‘the home, the church, clubs, fraternal organizations, corporations, associa tions, munielpalities, State or the United States, the choice of the ma- Jorities weilds the seeptre of authority and'power. ‘Tyranny is not a matter of individuals, 7 ahat about the rights of the fowée? Ave their rights the cause of unrest? When we read of strikes, a phase of tient indncerial Gnetets eee have arranged through the Harper- Rartlett Company to build their homes on the instalment plan—the sagre way the lots are sold. ‘The owners of this property are de- termined to make it a strictly high- class colored section and all lots arc to be soid with the understanding that ho “shacks” are to be built thercon. Resides having the very best. street car facilities, Lincoln Park is sur- rounded on all sides by the best county roatls, leading directly into the city, appropriation having already been made for the paving of the Sewell’s Point Road which directly adjoins the property. ‘The lots have been properly lid off and streets running through the property well graded. A purchaser of a Linedin Park lot who now lives in Lindenwood says he is moving to Lincoln Park because it is iore convenient for him to get to and fcom his work in the city from Lin- coln Park. 3 The lots in Lincoln Park are all high and dry and are from two to thre« times the size of city lots, hence customer does not have to” buy tw lots in Lingotn Park in order to have enough land upon which to builds home and have a nie garden and lawn, Gther advantages in home owership in Lineoin Park are good. stores,neisch: hors, school and churches.

Reward the South For Disfranchising Afro-Americans (By Willian Pickens) According to an article copyrighted by theNey York Evening Post, the Republican National Committee _ is about to make it really profitable for the South to disfranchise its colored people. ‘The obstacle now. to the com- plete disfranchisement of colored Pie ple in the South, is that the white Republicans must’ stand for votes for Negro Republicans in order to get the support of the Negroes in he Repub- lican National Convntion and in. the matter of secuting positions from any successful Republican presindentia! candidate. According to this article of the Post the National Committee is about. to decide to disfranchise any Colored Re- publican if the Southern States has disfranchised him. ‘That is, it a Ne. gro is a Harvard graduate and the BANK, STORE AND OFFICE FIXTURES } MIRRORS, PLATE GLASS AND MARBLE : MODERN STORE FRONTS \ | aieagre econ Semen rererre rcs SRE eatin manent mete Ae i pre eee Loe | ess eee eae Sd ae On Bee trace eer ees emcee | PA eaa) RERURAe Gosia iia Ae a 1 | Deen Wi aaa erate te en as ue CCR | i ‘ oe Weiter: Ree ol \ ke aaa Oeste TS hie ad aoe say ROTERIOR of she MUTUAL SAVINGS BANK, PORTSMOUTS.

Meanwhile nothing ts said about proportioning representation in Congress to the actual votes cast in a State. If thoy would make both of these adjustments, they would not put a premium on disfranchising the Ne- gro—but to cut down the Negro’s strength in the Party and to leave the South in tact in Congress, ig actually to PUT A PREMIUM ON DISFRAN- CHISING THE’ NEGRO IN THE SOUTH. | It rewards the South for its immoral and uncivilized laws ta disfranchise Negrocs— for it makes it JUNE 4, 1921 so. that the more.

OF all the bone-headed ‘surrenders made by the Republican Party and the North ‘since Appomattox, where the South was thought to surrender, this will be the most disgraceful. ‘Is there no honor in the Republican Party?
