It was given for the benefit of the Pine Street UNGRATEFUL SAYS NUTTER Attitude Toward Race "Smacks of Lily White Tendencies." Northern Colored Republicans Stand with Southern Brothers WILL MAKE BALLOTS COUNT # **The Associated Negro Press** Washington, D. C. June 23—Daily newspaper comments, special writers, Congressmen, Senators and "everyday citizen" besides the press of the Race, have filled the air on the subject of the adopted Report of the Republican Convention. There has been great interest concerning the attitude of Northern colored voters. The Associated Negro Press invited two leading citizens from two states to attend where "Colored vounters count," to express their views on the subject. Statements come from Attorney John L. Atlantic City, N. J., and Attorney William J. of Kansas City, Mo., and Gary J. Attorney Nutter says: "In my opinion, the Republican National Committee made a tremendous tactical misuse by downing Southern representation in the Republican Convention. It smacks of 'Lily White' tendencies, and impresses me as being an ungrateful attitude for how that we have given to party officials in the wolf-holling odds. This move is particularly distasteful in the face of Congress being painfully silent on boasted distrustishment in the South." There seems to be but one course left, and that is for the colored Republicans of the North to stand solidly for the interests of the colored cities of the South, and to make our ballots in the South. We know will give us a square doul, and against those whose action proves that they will not. If it is thought that colored representatives will be cut down in the South, colored voters of the North should place candidates in the field for delegates, and even for members of Congress, in those districts where the voters will be cut down. It is understand that in citizenship rights we are each for All and all for each. Attorney Nutter says: "The National Republican Washington June; 8th, gives absolute proof that the Republican Party can no longer be depended upon as the bulwark which stands between the American Negroes and those who constitute a major of us political concessions or Serfs." "The committee by its vote, in reducing Southern representation in the National convention, affirms, on behalf of the Republican party, the brutal disfairness of the Democratic party by the various Southern States, and aligns itself with the Democratic party, in making permanent this disfairness. This action must be robbed in no unreasonable way, who have the privilege of the electorate of the Northern and Western States, and while in no sense do I favor a general exodus from the Republican party by the Negroes, but from now on, I favor a general Roll Call of all Republican questions affecting us, and if they are not positively and publicly for us, they are to be counted against us. And we must not accordingly. In the action taken by the National Convention, we have expressed our interest in the subject of the reduction of representation in the National Conventions, Mr. Miller was asked to express his views on the recent action. His complete statement follows: "To the Associated Negro Press, I am delighted that a request for a statement presenting the reasons for the change of representation in the National Convention and the practical operation of the rule adopted as related to that portion of country commonly called the South." orfolk Journal and Guide FRED D. McCRACKEN PROTEST LINNEY APPOINTMENT Afro-American Delegation Will Go From North Carolina To Ask President Not To Appoint Man Who Showed Race Hatred (By T. L. McCon) Raleigh, N. C.—The Negroes of North Carolina and of the whole South are much perturbed over the probable confirmation of Linney, the villain white” appointee for the District Attorney of Western North Carolina. A large delegation of Negroes from all parts of the State will go to Washington this week and go before the Senate Committee and protest against his confirmation. Individually, the Negroes and churches have contributed money to meet the necessary expense. As a means of checking the flow of “moonshine” liquor into this city, the city commissioners enacted an ordinance to require all “For Hire” automobiles must furnish a bounty of fifteen hundred dollars in addition to the annual license for operating in the city and as a vehicle for transporting whiskey into the city majority of the “For Hire” autos are either owned or operated by colored men. The city public schools have closed and the teachers preparing to enter six-week summer schools in various parts of the country. Gardens and crops in general are suffering for rain hereabout, as there has been no rain for several weeks. It is important to open for money to help provide for the Negroes in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a number of churches and societies will collect money and forward it to the relief committee forthwith. Here is a concrete example of the importance of reading Negro newspapers and societies will collect money and forward it to the relief committee forthwith. Here is a concrete example of the importance of reading Negro newspapers and societies will collect money and forward it to the relief committee forthwith. Here is a concrete example of the importance of reaching scarcely one-third of the twelve million Negroes in this country. The moral is, read Negro newspapers and societies will collect money and forward it to the relief committee forthwith among the Negroes in this country. Race pride should impel every Negro to be a regular subscriber to Negro newspapers. The writer must confess that he is, if the reader so pronounces him, a "crank" in his conception of the importance of Negroes reading Negro newspapers and periodicals. I conceive it to be the main liner by which the reader is informed of the common understanding on matters pertaining to his general welfare—politically, socially, morally and intellectually. I wish that a number of wealthy Negroes in this country could see the necessity of and devise a good Negro newspaper for the purpose of having a Negro newspaper sent into the homes of every Negro family in this country. It is my opinion that this medium of enlightening the Negroes is the most awkened race' consciousness and the dawn of a new day would spring into hearts of our people.

A colored man, accused of the murder of a twelve-year-old white girl, was taken from twenty deputized armed officers on the court house steps at Monticello, and was accused of a stump, and, with the sanction and provolval of the entire citizenship, burned to a charcoal. Williams had already been convicted of the crime of lynching, was accused of a jury in two minutes, and was acquitted of the mob not vented their wrath upon him, would have died in the electric chair. Vandals Burn Churches, Lodges and Homes Moultrie, Ga.—Following the arrest of John Henry Williams, accused colored murderer of a twelve-year-old white girl, the torch has been applied to the house and judge halls and homes in the Antioch County. Aside from the committal of these atrocities Afro-Americans have been driven from their homes and horse-whipped. One colony defended his family and his home was shot. Williams, who was accused of the crime of murder, was summarily tried, convicted and burned at the stake, practically by the judge, jury and of others he made to apprehend and punish those guilty of the destruction of much valuable property and the murder, humiliation and punishment of hundred or more innocent Afro-Americans. A court assistant, Louis Wimberly, an eighteen-year-old colored convict, who was a trusty around the residence of an assistant servant, hanged him to a tree and riddled his body with bullets. The court tacked the servant's wife in his absence. The lynching occurred near the gates of the convict farm. South Carolina Adds Another * McCormick, S.

He was taken from the tree and his toes, fingers and clothing appropriated as souvenirs by members of the mob. A.F.L.WOULD NOT CONDEMN K. K. K. Refused to Allow Colored Delegation to Offer Resolution Condemning Mob Violence in the South.

When an attempt was made to offer the resolution scores of delegates arose from their seats in defense of the same, but to no avail. The sentiments prevailing, however, showed that the objectors were greatly in the minority.

SMITH DEFENDS GEORGIA Makes Protest Against Expose of Lawlessness and Mob Violence. Norfolk Virginian-Pilot Replies in Sound Editorial GEORGIA HER OWN ENEMY Washington, June 18.—A protest against holding up the "poemace cases," as an indictment against the State of Georgia was voiced tonight by former senator Mike Smith, in an effort to have the Georgia society, of Washington, "You know and should let it be known," he said, "that, with rare exceptions, the white people of Georgia are law-abiding citizens and treat Negroes just and kindly, and that the subject of 'poemace' upon the subject of 'poenace' which he has accused of sounding into the press of the country is unwarranted and unjustifiable. "Unfortunately in all the States there occur, now and then, crimes which shock the public sense, but this does not do no to indulge in general condemnation. The former senator said the public generally also should be informed that the Negro who confessed to the murders on the Jasper county farm and man who was charged with directing the crimes, had both been promptly convicted. He explained in detail the so-called "peonage" system by which a white farmer might pay fines imposed on Negroes and then require the latter to be sent to the until reimbursement had been made. Declaring that he did not condone peonage, he pointed out that the practice permitted "the farmer to secure a needed laborer and the convicted criminon to escape the disguise of working on the land." The governor, Mr. Smith said, he did not hear of a single case of peonage. "I would not for a moment have you do otherwise than condemn lawlessness wherever found," the speaker intimated, but he should always be given for equality of treatment in courts without regard to race. "It should be said to the credit of the State of Georgia that, despite the opinion to the contrary, which is seeming to prevail throughout the country, very cases, even of technical peonage, have been found in Georgia." The Virginian-Pilot, the local morning paper, said in the following strong editorial and appropriate answer to Mr. Smith's de- (Continued on page 8) G. HAMILTON FRANCIS, M. D. AGE ARTICLE MISLEADING Dr. Francis Corrects Statement Sent Out to Effect that Old Dominion Medical Society Is Hopelessly Divided The following article appearing in the New York Age of June 17th, while not in agreement to the physicians of the State, reflects no credit to its contributor: "The Old Dominion Midwest Society and State Association of Graduate Nurses found the local body hopelessly in need to request one faction is reported to believe in the co-operation of no whites, but the co-operation offers no opportunity to demonstrate Negro skill and consists in listening and booking. Dr. U. S. G. Jones and Dr. Jas. Dr. U. S. G. Jones faction. The other faction is led by Claus Burton and Dr. Robt. E. Burton. This faction believes the Negro physician is equal to any emergency, and announced that it would hold clinics at the Dominion Memorial Hospital, a Negro-owned and affiliated institution, and extended a cordial invitation to all who believe in the competency of the Negro physician." The members of the Old Dominion Medical Society, included in May, 1920, of receiving first hand information in Mental Diseases and the program was arranged to suit the unanimous decision of the body. On reaching Petit was found that a few of the local members of the membership attending to the information and started to mould sentiment against it but the president in whose hand the execution of the program rested insisted on carrying out three of the membership attending to the information received was a departure from the usual custom and a new and inspiring field was opened up to them. It might well be noted that none of this "Willful" members of the Old Dominion Medical Society sought to direct its doings. It is interesting to note that the majority of the physicians of the State are on the most cordial terms and the spirit of warmth is evident at all times. It is interesting to note that Negro physicians as well as all the people of this civilization will stop drawing lines and pursue the course most favorable for their advancement.

M. Patterson, was steady and rapid expansion of business. The company has been operated so far as a closed corporation. It was decided that to take care of this growing concern, twenty shares of stock were purchased, and a large per share, which can be taken up by the present stockholders and the public. The declaring of a dividend was discussed, but was discouraged by those who were not interested. The following officers were elected for the coming year: F. E. Puryear, president; H. T. Fonville, vice-president; E. M. Patterson, secretary and assistant manager; J. E. Hawkins, manager and assistant secretary.

Nashville, Tenn., June 21.—That home-economics education in the colored schools of 14 Southern states is recognized as essential to a well-rounded curriculum and that earnest efforts are being expended to raise the standard of work in colored schools, through more adequate financial support and improved supervision, was the opinion expressed by Miss Carlo Alberta Lytford, director of the Hampton Institute home-economics school, in her recent address on "Home-Economics Education for Colored Girl," delivered before the Southern Home Economics Association, which met at George Peabody Collage. "Courses in home-making in Negro schools," said Miss Lily Lyford, "have been carried on in various parts of the country, and thus than fifty years, but so scattered that they have not been able to train Negro girls to standards of better living, so lacking in recognition by the State departments of education, and is generally thwarted by the lack of training, fully arranged, well adapted programs, which can be said to have existed no well-defined plan of home-economics education for the Negro girl. In the appointment of supervisors of schools in every Southern state, with the development of recognized home-economics departments in the State normal schools for Negroes, with the growth of the home-demonstration work for Negro women in the schools of culture, and with the establishment of vocational home-economics under the Federal Board for Vocational Education, the need for a definite scheme for home-economics education for the Negro has become increasingly apparent. "Negro education along all lines has suffered sorely through lack of organized effort and co-operative endeavor. Time-economies education for the Negro has been exception to the prevailing condition though special interest in some phases of the work, funds for maintenance, recognition by educators have all been limited, and schools have been left without stoves, sewing rooms have been without machines; no provision has been made for supplies for cooking or sewing lessons; and State and county officials have not known nothing of existing conditions. Learning by doing "Early courses in home-making for Negro girls were largely taught by Northern white women who came home and aid in the establishment of industrial schools. They were transported by Northern capital. These scattered industrial schools, however, became centers of development for the Negro communities in which they were educated. They were "private" institutions deprived them of that wide usefulness, which it is alone possible for well-supported State institutions to exert. These institutions as Hampton and Tuskegee, which were a degree of independence and of freedom from binding conditions, have made possible the development of a type of education that is full of situations for vocational schools today. "The motto of Hampton, Learning by doing, has stood for making use of all the facilities of daily life for training. Thus from the first, the girls were carefully trained in various courses, and the girls had no formal courses of home-economics were developed. Such training has continued to form an important part of the home-economics education of Hampton girls and of the girls in all the well-conducted industrial schools. The girls have been trained in the pioneer home-economics work which have been done in Norfolk, Newport News, and other Southern cities during the past twenty-five years. She also commended the valuable work of the State Supervisors of home-economics who helped the deans industrial supervising teachers who aim to improve the Negro girl, her home, and her community. Modern Home-Economics Courses "The home-economics course" said Miss Lyford, "that does not make the girl a healthier, better-dressed, more industrious, and a more honest girl fails of its first purpose. The girl is here needed to care for and to control herself and wisely has received the fundamental training necessary before she can be prepared to take her place as the head of a home or to assume those wider responsibilities which make for better community life. The Negro home will show the results of school work, and only as it does, will the needed improvement in community life be brought to pass. "Today, because of the recognized changes that are taking place in economic and social conditions, all teachers feel the pressing need of preparing girls for lives of usefulness, of development, of happiness, of awakening a spirit of responsibility in those upon whom the future welfare of the race is to rest. "All know that the old-time cabin is passing and that the homes of the colored people must be made as sanitary, as attractive, and as insipid as the family life of are the homes of other ethnic groups. It is a fact that Negro girls today come from homes that range from the poorest to the best and that they come to their home-economics work with corresponding backgrounds of experience. When determining the sort of home-economics course to be offered, it is necessary to know既然 definitely the amount of preparation that the teachers have had and their ability to carry on the work. The limitations in the educational opportunity of the colored people are nowhere more apparent than in the preparation of their teachers. This is only by studying the schools of home-economics, most of whom have had a meager elementry education, a still more limited secondary education, and a normal training of THE STAR HAIR GROWER A WONDERFUL DRESSER AND GROWER THE LADY OF THE ROAD Opening Day—Saturday, June 4th, 1921 Finest Optical Store In Virginia During the many years of MONTAUK popu- larity, various Ice Creams have come and gone, but there has never been the slightestlet-up in the MONTAUK'S original policy of the BEST ICE CREAM at all times--its purity and goodness have made MONTAUK "the ICE CREAM SUPREME," and it is going on with an ever increasing patronage of particular people who demand the best. 430 Boush St. Phones 24788-24789 a few weeks in summer school or, at besta few months of practice teaching in conjunction with a secondary college. "Two-year normal courses are being offered today, but they will be many years before, the best teachers who finish such courses will be sufficient in number to supply the demand for teachers of home economies in all the city schools and in the rural schools of the South. Fewer by far are teachers of home-economics who have a college degree. There is an increasingly large number of young colored women who are completing courses of the South. Majors, home-economics have not been offered in these colleges. At the same time the occasional graduate of a Northern college seldom finds her way back to Southern schools and even then her course may have been adequately for the conditions which she is going to face in her every-day work within and without the classroom. "For many years to come home economics courses must be so planned that they can be effectively taught but they must be trained in the industrial schools. They are able of doing good work and great numbers of them are doing effective work all over the South. Their work can be strengthened by wise supervision and by increased opportunities for summer-school courses and other forms of advanced study. Probably to class of teachers is more cagery for them than for self-improvement than these women who are acquainted with the conditions of their own people and who feel the needs so keenly and their own inadequacy so greatly.

The customer is expected by ‘them to be on his gunrd all of the time, and the tradesman is always surprised and pained when his mis takes’are discovered and his attention called to them. The way in whick he apologizes often convinces the rustomer that, after all, the trades man may be honest. . It is just that way in polities “Eternal vigilance is the price of lib- erty.” If those who are concerned de not follow every Word and act of the politicians they will find themselves deceived and betrayed in the most brazen fashion, where the most solemn promises have been made when votes were needed. In the last Presidential campaign the Republican managers were skep- tical all the way of carrying the country; so skeptical that they spent millions of dollars o make sure and went in debt more than $1,500,000, Which is still a matter of debt ‘and vexation to the National Republican Committee. Not sn Afro-American who took part in the eampnign -and voted on election day had the ‘remotest idea that the Adiuinistration would lean towards a Lilywhite condition of Re- publican polities in the South, in which Afro-American Republicans would be allowed 10 more participa- tion than they are in the conduct of Democratic palities; nor was there any expectation that the National Committee would tuen over the party in the South to the Lilywhiles, by re- ducing the delescates to Nations] Con- ventions by twagty-three votes and re- quiring that any Congress Distriet, to be entitled to representation, must have at least 2,500 qualified’ regis- tered voters. But all of this has hup- pened which was not expected. On the heels of this business, it is now proposed anew to reiluce the num- ber of representatives in Congress and the clectoral college by the num- “ber-of Afro-American voters disfran- chised by State laws and mobocratic intimidation, thus giving the sanction of Congress to the disfranchisement and making it perpetual.

The Commissioner of Immigration has issued statement showing. the number that may come from each of the countries, the total being 365,825 for the year, as against 1,000,000 who came here every month before the World War, In the total number allowed to come here during the next year we find that 120 Africans may come, but it is not stated whether they shall be black or white, and that the Atlantic Isles, pre- sumably the West Indies, may have 60, and the Pacifiie Isles only 22, these Jatter being Malay-Polinessian. » Ne Japanese or Chinese are allowed to come in.

Woofter Writes Ablest and Fairest Book on Colored Americans Yet Published Atlanta, Ga.,—T. J. Woofter, an Athens, Ga., man, has written one of the ablest and finest books on the negro in the world. Whilstill a student at the university, Woofter won the Phelps-Stokes fellowship and undertook a study of the Negro life which is so great a factor in the development of the South. His work attracts attention, and when Dr. Woofter was asked by the Federal government to investigate and report upon Negro migration during the war, Mr. Woofter was chosen as one of his assistants, making investigations in Georgia and that to study conditions in the work extending through several years. The results are embodied in a volume on Negro Migration: Changes in Rural Organization and Population, published by W. B. Gray, New York. From the break-up of the old order, following the civil war, to the present, the book is a scientific study of the human and economic problems most of the Southern and business. It is of the best practice in its examination of present dissatisfaction and ways of overcoming it; but it is especially remarkable as the work of a young man, able, thus to answer the most approach vexed and vexing questions with broad discerned to associate with the spirit of the true scientist. GOOD EFFECTS SEEN FROM MOTON'S TOUR Won Hearers With Frank Expression on Causes of Friction Between Races Raleigh, N. C.—The North Carolina state Department of Education recently sponsored a remarkable group of meetings, in which Dr. R. R. Moton, the associate institute, spoke for a week, two times, to great audiences of white people and of his own race, and to audiences composed of both races. The tour began at the chapel of the state university, before a crowded house of students, to which he was introduced by a member of the faculty. At Trinity college, Durham, he spoke to seven hundred students, men and women, Gen. Juhann S. Carr, an ex-Confederate pilot, ex-confederate anthropist, being among his greatest. Before he spoke in Raleigh the mayor called a private conference of citizens which included ex-governor and Mrs. Bickett, ex-secretary and Mrs. Daniels Institution, Superintendent of Public Instruction, a social, political and educational circles. This conference was followed by a public address to 3,000 people in the city auditorium, which was presided over by the mayor. Dr. Moton was addressed by Mr. Daniels, and the meeting was closed by ex-Governor Bickett. In Wilmington Dr. Moton spoke in the largest theatre in the city after an introduction by the mayor. A similar meeting was held at the city after the meeting, where Moton spoke at many Negro colleges and churches. At many meetings crowds of both races were turned away for lack of room. The greatest frankness was employed in speaking to each other theoir and us, for each of which its members were responsible and of the way out; but the spirit of the speaker won his hearers, white and black. Prominent people through out the stateide endorse the action of the Department of Education in promotions of the arts, and are seen in the new sympathy and understanding among whites hitherto indifferent, as well as in the spirit of Negros who had fallen into bitter conflict. The address given at Trinity college is said to be the most talked-of event of the eleventh year.

Nectarine St, near Jefferson Ave., Cape Charles, Va., Fred. Matthews, Prop. Kenbridge Citizens Ask President Not To Appoint Taft Kenbridge, Va.—Following the publication of an article in a recent issue of the Norfolk JOURNAL & GUIDE entitled "Taft May Be Appointed," in which it was stated that William Howard Taft, former president of the United States, would likely be appointed by President Harding to succeed the late Chief Justice White on the Supreme Court Bench, the colored voters of this place have gotten busy and sent the following petition to the white house, strenuous protesting against Mr. Taft's appointment: Kenbridge, Va. June 14, 1921. "To His Excellency, The President of the United States, Washington, D. C. "Mr. President: "We, the undersigned citizens of Kenbridge, and Lumenburg County, Va., most respectfully write to ask that if you have any sympathy and good wishes for the friend, much oppressed colored people of the United States, please do not appoint. Ex-President Taft Chief Justice, nor a member of the Supreme Court. "Experience teaches us that Mr. Taft has never been a friend to the colored people, neither has he ever been sincere in any of his pretensions to favor or benefit them here, nor elsewhere. The colored people suffered almost indescribable disappointment and humiliation during his career as Secretary of War, and also during his instillation as President. One among the most merciful punishments of the colored people of this country was the disdain of the colored soldiers at Brownsville, although the officers in immediate charge of them said they were not guilty, which discharge Mr. Roosevelt declared publicly, a few years later, that Mr. Taft was wholly responsible for, and his having already expressed a sentiment against the 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution makes him undoubtedly a dangerous man to be on the Supreme Court bench. His disdain would be discriminatory and ruinous beginning. With a knowledge of the above facts your petitioners will ever pray that you grant our prayer. Enclosed find and lease a clipping from the NORWICH JOURNAL AND GUIDE, the leading colored paper in the South. We have the honor to remain your most obedient servants: "W. F. Young, C. C. Eubanks, C.

The colored theatre goers ore demanding a higher-class intertainment than the colored thea- tres have been affording, and it is to meet the demend of the public for better talent that the Chrispus At- utcks Dramatic School has been started by Mr. Gres. It affords the young men and women, girls and boys of the race, especially in Nor- folk x wonderful , opportunity’ to develop within thmselves a very fine art, and help to place the eatesory of the best dramatic professionals. Mr, Gregg deserves the highest com- serianttoe for his efforts and the Nortolk Journal and Guide asks for him the hearty co-operation of the public: “Cast Upon the World”, whieh is to be presented by the’ Chrispus Attucks players, next Wednesday night at the Attucks is one of the most thrilling dramas ever attempted ‘on the American stage. It is a play full of thrills, pathos and laughter. ‘The following’ named persons are in- cluded in the cast: Gladys M. Evans, Clem recky Mills, Walter S, Bond, Anna Jones, T. W. Stancell, Vollian D. Brown, George Malone! Lillian Taylor, Lereda Malone, Lillian Jones, Robert Brown, Thad Jones, George Winston, C. H. Kenan, Fred’ Garrett, ‘The company was organized by Miss Gladys M. Evans.

While the. girls perhaps, Were not as uttractive as some seen here, their stage work was far better and a yreat deal less suggestive. Taking everything into consideration “Wit Wail) Warblers” is as good a musical comedy as Tins been presented here and deserves the “appreciation of the public.

Equitasie Distraution | “We effectuated 2 more equitable distribution of delegates in the South by increasing the number in cer ‘ain Southern States, leaving it the se in some und decreasing: it slightly in others. Thus the States of Arkansas, Florida, Virginia and Tennessee ure given an increased number of dele- gates. That is, these Sates are. to have more power in nutienal eonven- tions under the new system than they had in the last. ‘Two States, Alabama und North Carolina, are not changed. They will have the same number of delegates under the new as inder the present system. The, States of Geor- tia, | Louisiana, Mississippi, South Cavolina and Texaghave their repre- sentation in the National Convention slightly reduced. ‘The purpose of this is tw increase the represenation wher- ever the Republican. vote increases and decrease it, ifthe Republican vote Falls. off. This is both. logical and fair. Under the system that, was adopted there is ‘no chance of any Southern State having less than is here outlined ard ‘it may have more in the next and succeeding conven- tions. It will have more if the Re- publican vote incveuses as it should. / “Third. 1 desire to present my views representing the operation of that part of the new rule which gives representation in the National Con- Yention only to the Congressional dis. trict having a Republican vote of 2,500, This is not!'done to penalize the South, hut it is done to require the upbuilding of the Republican par. ty in every congressional district in the South that cannot comply with these requirements and if every dis: trict does come out and comply, the Southern vote will be very much in creased.
