HARDING'S POLICY NOT TO APPOINT COLORED MEN TO OFFICE IN THE SOUTH FIRST IN LIVG NEWS THE TIME VOL. XXI. NO. 31 Suggests That Colored Americans in the South Remain in / the "Ranks" of the Republican Party AND NOT ASPIRE TO LEADERSHIP (Special to the Journal & Guides) Washington, D. C.—Consternation reigns supreme in Washington, especially among Negro leaders and other voting republicans from the States, over President Harding's voluntary announcement of his policy toward the Negro element of the Republican Party, with particular reference to those who reside and vote in the South. When Hon. Archibald Grinkle, Hon. Charles A. Cottrill and Lawyers Shelly P. Davidson and Colonel Calmade a visit to The White House Monday, the White House urged President Harding to deliver an address to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in September next, and through this organization to indicate to colored Americans throughout the country what might be expected by them stated that present administration, he stated that there matters of pressing importance about that time might possibly present his appearance in person, he would send to the N. A. A. C. P. convention either a written message or a personal representative to address them in his stand. The delegation had warned beforehand that LUTHS would be discussed, the President following voluntary announcement to the committee above named; said he: "Gentlemen: I am very thoroughly convinced in my mind as to the policy that I am going to inaugurate with reference to appointments and that is, I am not going to appoint any colored men to public office in the Northern States. This thing called 'RACE PREEMUNICE' you cannot down by letting it, and the only salvation, as I see it, for the colored man in the South, is to FALL INTO THE RANKS BEHIND WHITE LEADERSHIP until he can, acting through his own power, resist. THIS IS MY POLICY AND I AM GOING TO FOLLOW IT, LIVE OR DIE, SINK OR SWIM." Twelve hundred Negro officers in the United States Army were good enough to lead 400,000 brave black soldiers and battle in FRONT-LINE TRENCHES under the "Stars and Stripes" for FREEIDON AND DEFENSE for NATIONAL AND CAMPANION AND campanion workers and hundreds of thousands of Negro Republican voters were eagerly sought and deemed good enough to lead (or at least placed on exact par with other Americans) in last November's fight against Wilsonism, the dangerous League of Nations, and to help hand Warren J. Harding in THE WHITE LEADERSHIP on his Marion, Ohio, parch, during the campaign and BEFORE HIS ELECTION, loudly proclaimed to the American Negroes assembled there: "YOU HAVE NEVER FAILED THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC, AND THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT WILL, NEVER FAIL, YOU"; this same man, in his wonderfully eloquent inaugural address boldly stated that "THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT NIZES NO CLASS, NO GROUP, NO SECTION; THERE MUST BE NONE IN LEGISLATION OR ADMINISTRATION." now, after election, tells the colored brother to "fall into the ranks behind white leadership" in the South, to never hope to hold any public office whatsoever in Squamish State during his administration, reaching a precedent by lending the heavy weight of his Presidential sanction and approval to the outrageous and un-American doctrine of racial discrimination and Lily-Whism. Before his election the colored brother was all right and was entitled to every privilege and consideration that would permit a party could grant to him; AFTER HIS ELECTION, regardless of his promise not to discriminate in matters of "legislation or administration" he listens to the sive voice of Southern white democrats (alias Lily Whites) and announces his intention to throw the Southern colored republican office-seekers over blood and plainly tells them that "THOU GO AND NO FARTHER." "When the devil was sick—the devil a Saint would be," "When the devil was WELL, the "When the devil was WELL, the DEVIL-OE-DAINT was he!" DEVIL-OUT-A-SATISFY was he: DEVIL-OUT-A-SATISFY was he: Taft's Lily-White policy seem but a prologue compared to the tragedy of his own inconsistent, ungrateful and race-discriminating attitude. If the PRESIDENT can afford to treat loyal and law-binding Negro citizens of the south other than as full-fledged Americans regardless of their proven patriotism, character, attainments or standing in the community—if HE can afford to lend the great weight of his support to discrimination throughout the South, then the Negro ever hope to have his constitutional rights recognized by Southern legislatures, and through them "WORK OUT HIS DESTINY?" The day of recognizing will yet come, for Negro voters who constitute the balance of power in many Northern congressional districts feel the stigma of this Lily-White policy as keenly as do their Southern brothers in an EET LITATION IS SURE in coming congressional and national elections, unless The President and his party in power abandon their untenable and un-American Lily-White policy."

TULSA'S CHIEF OF POLICE IS CONVICTED Jury Finds Him Guilty Of Riot Conspiracy and of Theft Plots In Connection With the Riot WOMAN ATTORNEY PROSECUTES CASE (12) The Associated Negro Press Tuba, Okla., July 29. (Special). John A. Gustafson, Tuba's "rid chief of police," has been adjudged guilty of riot conspiracy and of theft pla- sges suggested to him and his confederates during the horrible situations of the disgraceful occurrences which have brought so much of disgrace and humiliation to our formerly proud commonwealth. A woman, Mrs. Katherine Van Leuthen, made the principal plaen which brought about this creature's conviction. The suspended chief of police, last night, for riot conspiracy, guilty by a jury of having failed to prevent precautions for public safety on the night and day of the recent race riot here," and also "gilty on" another count of conspiracy to free automobile thieves and collect rewards. For the first time: a woman add- ed to the court's charge, when Katherine Van Leuthen, as attorney general, took the floor to present the State's opening argument. She spent the greater part of her argument in analyzing the third count of the accusation charging the chief with conspiracy. She also charged the chief could have disarmed the Negroes and could have prevented the riot, arson, and murder which followed. "The State has never contended that any law was violated after that trouble at the courthouse," she concluded. "After those armed Negroes had started shooting and killed a white man, then those who armed themselves for the obvious purpose of protecting their property and lives violated no law. The chief neglected to do his duty and the citizens, after seeing their fall, left court attenders in their own hands. No, we don't contend that they violated the law." Mrs. Van Leuther's plea, which is acknowledged as a presentation of the case which procured the conviction of the deposed and disgraced chief, is regarded by the leading colored people as a conscious effort to clear the skirts of the white citizens of Tulsa of all measure of guilt in connection with the underlying causes that led up to the riot. But the conviction comes they say, as a step in that direction which will strengthen the cause of our negroes in the city. "We have to make some sort of a stand," said one recently "if we don't Tulsa will become too hot for us to stay here." KU KLUX CLAIMS MORE VICTIMS White Man and Woman Brutally Whipped In Alabama By Masked Members of the Klan. Ordered to Leave the State Birmingham, Ala.—Mrs. Kate Alexander, a white grocery man of this city, was visited last Saturday night by members of the Ku Klux Klan, taken into the woods and brutally whipped. After the whipping they were ordered to leave Birmingham within a week or suffer worse consequences. The charge against both parties was their friendiness toward certain colored people. The woman, who declares that she is innocent of the charges, says she does not intend to obey orders to leave, but Coulson issued a different attitude and will leave as soon as he can arrange his affairs. CONCERT The regular Fifth Sunday Night Concert by the Choir of Saint James A. M. E. church will begin promptly at 8 o'clock, July 31, 1921. The public is cordially invited. Mr. R. C. Davis, master of ceremonies; Miss Vashti Palmer, organist; Frank G. Russell, chorister; Rev. P. A. Scott, pastor. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JULY 30, 1921 H An action photo of Ned Gourdin, Harvard's great colored athlete—the greatest track field athlete of today—who on Saturday last smashed the world's broad jump record, making the unnerving leap of twenty-five feet and three inches in the Harvard stadium during the meet between the Yale-Harvard and Oxford-Cambridge combinations. The best previous "legal" mark was twenty-four feet, eleven and three-quarter inches made in 1901 by Peter O'Connor of Ireland; so the agile Harvard boy broke the world's record and exceeded it by three and one-quarter inches. It is believed this mark will remain a goal for broad jumpers for generations. Colored Republicans Will Name Full State Ticket Tentative State Announced After Conference of Leaders Dr Richmond. Mitchell Named As Governor Nominee Richmond, Va.—A conference of colored Republicans representative of all parts of the State held here Tuesday night, and presided over by State Chairman Joseph R. "K" Schwartz, named a tentative ticket for the principal State offices, as a protest against the regular organization Republican convention, held in Norfolk recently, over the bill "the colored Republicans" out of the party. John Mitchell, editor of the Richmond Planet, president of the Mechanics Savings Bank of Richmond, and a committee chairman of the American Bankers Association, was nominated for Governor on the tentative state MEET IN SEPTEMBER A full and final State convention will be held at Richmond September 5th. A preliminary convention will be held at Buckeye Beach August 6th to formulate a plan of organization designed to reach every precinct in the State. P. R. Young, of Norfolk, was nominated for Lieutenant Governor, Mr. Young is president of the Tidewater Bank and Trust Company and editor of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE. J. Thomas Newsome, of Newport News, and Joseph R. Pollock, of Richmond, were nominated for Attorney General, one to be selected at the convention in September. Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, president of the Richmond Savings Bank of Richmond and president of the Independent Order of St. Luke, representing 290,000 Negroes in the United States, was nominated for superintendent of public instruction. NOMINATE ELL TICKET It was unanimously decided to nominate full State, city and county tickets. It is expected that the September convention will make the tentative nominations permanent. City and county conventions will be held to nominate members of the House of Delegates, sheriffs, city sergeants, commonsmen and others of the September convention. Sixy-eight delegates were present representing all parts of the State. Norfolk, Richmond, Petersburg, Romoke, Lynchburg, Newport News, Staunton, Hampton, Bristol, Frederickburg, Charlottsville and a few of the counties were represented. Eight delegates from Tidewater Virginia were present. Mr. YOUNG DECLINES NOMINATION Editor P. B. Young, who was not present at the conference, upon receiving notice of his selection as the nominee for the office of Lieutenant Governor, sent the following telegram to Attorney Jos. R. Pollard, State leader of the colored Republics: "Press reports this morning state that at the Conference of colored Republicans last night I was tentatively nominated for office of lieutenant governor in the Colorado State ticket. My business responsibilities and duties are such that it is impossible for me to accept the tender. In addition I have not given sufficient study to our present political situation to form an opinion as to whether the placing of wholly colored ticket in the field is the proper thing to do at this time. I appreciate this expression of confidence, on the part of my fellow senators, in the kind thank you and them for the courtesy, but regret my inability to be of service to the movement in the capacity designated." IN FAVOR OF REFERENDUM The position that Mr. Young takes as to the placing of a full colored shirt is that it should be that this important and far-reaching matter should first be submitted by recommend to the entire colored population of the State, and he proposed in a statement made at a conference of Republicans be it that Ocean Beach recently that a State-wide洁净 Beach be called to consider the matter, this conference to be representative of every element of the colored population of the State—labor, ministry, professions, skilled trades, fraternal, business, farmers and the present politicallies. He proposed that the most important thing we wanted to the colored people at this time was that of getting on the poll books. He stated further that he was not an aspirant for political office, but rather sought to bring about some change in determining, a some political program for the race that would result in the ultimate solution of the whole problem. OLD DOMINION BANKERS IN QUARTERLY MEET The Old Dominion Bankers Association, representing the colored banks of the State, held its quarterly session in the directors' room of Metropolitan Bank and Trust Co. Norfolk, Friday of last week. Representatives of a majority of the State banks were present. Among the recommendations coming from the executive committee that were adopted by the association was one calling for an annual meeting of the Association at some suitable resort, at which time a side attraction in the nature of an outing would be a feature of the meeting. It was also agreed that officers and directors of banks of admitting States, with their offices, would be invited to participate in this annual meeting and outing. There was considerable of subjects relating to the present financial and industrial conditions out of which many valuable suggestions for improving conditions were evolved. As this was the last meeting of the fiscal year of the Association, the following were elected for the ensuing year: Wm. M. Rich, president; M. D. Rublock, vice-president; P. B. Young, vice-president; S. W. Robinson, Jr., vice-president; G. W. C. Brown, secretary; C. W. Davis, I. assistant secretary; J. S. Jones, treasurer. The executive committee: Levi C. Browne, vice-president; J. A. Strong, Norfolk; T. C. Erwin, Richmond; R. H. Spivey, Newport, news and W. C. Martin, Danville.

Simmons, of Atlanta, Ga., leader of the Ku Klux Klan and "any man who admits membership into the Ku Klux Klan, is a party to every crime the organization commits." Representative of Mass County, declared in the Lever House of the Twin Legislature today. He was speaking on a resolution signed by himself and other members protesting against Simmons' reported intention of sending representatives into Texas to investigate the Klan's activities. Representative Patman directed his response to Representative Baker, who and just concluded a plea against the Ku Klux Klan, but declaring the Simmons was not connected with the Texas organization. Baker also had protested against sending representatives into this State. Mr. Patman asserted that the Legislature "is a party to every crime if it sits silly by and does nothing to curb the lawlessness of this organization." WHITES NOW IN CONTROL IN GEORGIA Colored Americans No Longer A Ruling Factor In the State Organization But Ten Placed On State Committee LINK JOHNSON MAY RESIGN (Special to Journal & Guide) Atlanta, Ga.-It was ordained by a convention of some two hundred Republicans held in this city Tuesday that the colored Americans of the State are no longer to be a controlling factor in the State organization of the party. The convention was called under the auspices of the Republican National Committee and its action was sanctioned by the same. A new State Central committee was appointed, with J. L. Phillips of Thomasville, Ga., wealthy white manufacturer, its committee is composed of forty men. While the colored Republicans were not completely eliminated they are so much in the minority that their votes for anything will not count. The reorganization of the party in the State is seen by the colored element to be the first step towards the colored brother from the councils of the party just as has been done in other Southern States. RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED The convention adopted resolutions endorsing President Harding and the work of his administration. The resolutions adopted pledged to "dedicate our best efforts to the maintenance of the Republican party in the State of Georgia on such a high plane as to command the confidence of the entire party and to demand the respect of all." COLORED PEOPLE MAKE PROTEST The reorganization of the party and the coloration of the colored Republicans did not go unchallenged by the prominent colored men who were present during the proceedings of the convention. Vigorous protests came from Edward W. Sherman, colored officer of Savannah; O. M. Duke of Butts (Congressman B. W. Duke of Butts) and Roscoe Pickett, former State chairman, whose motion to block the change in the committee was defeated. Members of the old party organization declared that the action of the convention was illegal and a protest will be made to President Harding. NEW COMMITTEE WILL HANDLE PARTY PATRONAGE The party patrol, in the State will not be handled now by Henry Lincoln Johnson, national committeeman, as had been thought. The new committee and appoint an executive committee which will dispense the federal patronage. JOHNSON MAY RESIGS Henry Lincoln Johnson, who won the place of National Committee from Georgia at the National Republican Convention, held in Chicago, may be the author of Deeds of the District of Columbia. Johnson's presence on the National Committee has been objectionable and it is understood that the post of Recorder of Deeds was tendered him by the National Committee and out of the way of complete white control of the party in the State of Georgia. ARRESTED FOR HONEST INTENTIONS White Lady Grossly Offended When Colored Men Sought To Return Her Lost Purse. (Dpecial to Journal & Guide) Danville, Yas.-A strange thing happened in this city a few days ago, the which sounds like a mythical fairy tale. A white woman who hails from the native State of the late Senator Ben Tillman, and who boasted "the bluest blood of South Carolina was in her veins," had two colored men armed with a paddle which had been lost. This lady said in her State it was an offense for one of the colored race to speak to a white woman, except as a servant. It is reported that she said to the mayor and police officers, "Are you all going to stand for it?" "In my State the nigger would have been swung to a limb." The following is what a local paper had to say on the matter: "Mrs. W. Perpetr, who lost or had her pocketbook stolen on Tuesday night, made complaint yesterday to Chief J. R. Bell and Mayor Wooding against John Davis and Robert Padget, both colored, the former an employee of Leon Carwich's colored poolroom on Patton street, saying that she had been called to this place to get her pocketbook over the phone by the governor who was working on the case, was any reward,urrendered it to Mrs. Arpegtt. "The main contention of Mrs. Arnett to the police was that Davis was a Negro, and in her native State of South Carolina it it was an offense for one of the colored race to speak to a white woman, except as a servant. Mrs. Arnett told the mayor and chief 'that the bluest blood of South Carolina was in her vein, and that she demanded something be done. 'No Negroes were arrested and taken to the courthouse, where after a long questioning, the officials decided that in their opinion Davis had done nothing except to return a pockettook through Padgett to Mrs. Arnett." Violates Jim Crow Law and Gets A Fine No Color Line Drawn By Justice Simmons In Punishing Violators. Conductor Gets Praise for Prosecution P. E. Abinoness, a Syrian, was fined $20.00 and costs in the Police Court by Justice Simmons, Tuesday morning, for violating the Jim Crow car law. From the evidence adduced at the trial, colored people were standing and the conductor requested Abinoness to move forward. This he refused to do, and was later arrested by the conductor. It is a very poor law that doesn't work both ways, but it is very unusual for conductors to show the fairness this one in question did in making this arrest and prosecuted the case. PRES.HARDING MAKES NEW DISCOVERY Finds That Administration Cannot Build Up Functioning Organization From Left-Over Democrats SEEKS CLOSER CO-OPERATION Washington, D.C. July 29—President Harding has made a great discovery. He has discovered that a Republican Administration cannot build up a strong, going, sympathetic, functioning organization by the use of leftover Democrats. "A house divided against itself cannot stand." Therefore, he has never ingrained inside the attitude of good fellowship, and has been recently letting the heads of all departments know that all persons not actually in sympathy with the plans, program and policy of the Administration, must "seat." Consequently, there are going to be some good old fashioned Republican Senators in the revolving chairs at the U.S. Senate, directing the actions of the nation in a sympathetic vein, and in a manner that will help the Administration to get somewhere. The announcement by the Associated Negro Press that there are some Republican Senators who are not in sympathy with the Administration is giving a "square deal" to the bronzeed and the consternation in many quarters here. Naturally there are many Senators who need have no fear of standing up and being counted. Their outstanding records, and devotion to human rights, speak for themselves. But it is for the purpose of smoking the other kind out, those who receive Negro votes, to give them a grip on the idea of equal and exact that it is highly important to know about. Some of them are candidates for reelection next year, 1922; others will follow in 1924. It is known that some of these Republican Senators have been to the President and urged him not only to "go show" in making appointments of colored citizens, but have urged him not to appoint anyone to a first-class place. It is an open secret that colored citizens of the frame of politics be played with in such a manner. It is a question of getting halway value received, if not full value, and therefore, these people are making marks beside the margins of all those who "come up lance." MOB MEMBERS ARE ACQUITTED Men Who Attempted to Force Lynchburg Jail and Lynch Jim Coleman Turned Loose Lynchburg, Va., July 27. James A. Price, charged with being a member of the mob which attacked the jail last March in an attempt to bryn Jim Coleman, a colored murder suspect, was found not guilty this afternoon by a jury in the Circuit Court of Halifax County. On motion of Commonwealth's Attorney James S. Easley, the indictments against ten other alleged mob members were not dismissed by Judge W. R. Burkdale. John S. Draper, the alleged leader of the mob and the first to be tried, was convicted last April, the jury fixing his punishment at one year in jail and a fine of $500. He has appealed the case and is now out on bail. The attack on the jail followed the murder, March 19, of William Rickman, a white man whose body was found in a public road seven miles east of Halifax County Courthouse. Jim Coleman was the first suspect arrested, and on the following day a mob formed and demanded the jail keys of Sheriff L. W. Rice. The demand was refused. The jail was then taken into custody and crow-bars, and when this assault failed, about 200 windows were fired through the windows into the cells. The prisoners were not injured, Coleman afterwards turned State's evidence, and his testimony, although circumstantial, led to the conviction of George Dickerson, colored, as the man Dickerson, punishment was fixed at ten years in the penitentiary, the most that could be given on circumstantial evidence. PROGRESSIVE IN EVERY RESPECT PRICE FIVE CENTS MAYOR HYLAN A LIVE WIRE IN NEW YORK Is Giving A Square Deal To His Colored Constituents. Million Dollar Armory for Fifteenth Regiment (18) The Associated Negro Press New York City, July 28.—New York, with her teening, millions, is always interesting and fascinating. There is something peculiarly invigorating in the vastness of the atmosphere of activity. It is a place where individual personalities are largely swallowed up in the great whole, and yet there is something about the life in the Metropolis that puts "pep" into the ambitions. One "hailing" from Chicago, may easily fall into the whirl of New York life, but he has certain liabilities of which he aware. In this city they don't move crusky as us out in the "Windy City." There is more indifference to the individual; power here is in the mass. It will take more than one story to tell about New York. In this story, let us look at one phase of the political life. Politically, New York is always an uncertain quantity. It has furnished many surprises for itself, and the nation. But in the matter of politics, you are pretty generally and regularly good. How the present mayor of New York is the Hon John F. Hylan. He is closing his first term, and will be a candidate for reelection. How do the edged people of New York feel about the present Administration? That's a good question. In view of the fact that the Republican Administration at Washington has been playing the "Historia Places in regards to official recognition of the American bronze." It is indeed very interesting to know what a Democratic mayor is doing in the nation's greatest city. Talk with the "rank and file" or talk with the "headers" and they will all tell you that Mayor Hylan is functioning, he is giving a square deal to his colored constituents. He is actually proving to be a Mayor "of the people, by the people and for the people," as he is forming the Harlem section where Mayor Hylan is a "Co-Operative Alliance," as it were. The Mayor's great interest in the famous Fifteenth New York regiment is well known. He has honored it in every way that a public official could honor a military organization, and he has capped the climax by seeing that the regiment will have an Armory that will cost almost a million dollars when completed, most of the money being appropriated. There a transformation going on in the Harlem district, which will soon be under control of colored physicians and surgeons. A community house, playgrounds, bath house, patrolmen by the score, and hundreds of colored people employed in various departments of the city, is the score that the Hylan Administration has made for the colored people of New York. Alderman Harris and Roberts, although Republicans, have not been opposed by the Administration in many places. This is an outstanding illustration of Practical Politics, with capital "Ps." It is the kind of policies that is branded to tell in the offing. But the Mayor of New York has not stopped here. He put his official opposition, in no uncertain terms, to the revival of the notorious Kni Klux Klan, and he has known that any attempt to receive that organization here would meet with steen in reuke. Just this week the Mayor gave his official endorsement to the great drive of the Urban League for new members in this city, in a letter that is pregnant with patriotic sentiments. Why for what it is worth. There might be some timely lessons in it for somebody. Acquitted for Killing Colored Hostler (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., July 27.—The trial of the army officer, James E. Shelley, for the shooting of Richard Christians, a colored hostler employed in the government quartermaster stables, in this city, ended in an acquittal by the general court-martial which was ordered to try the case. The trial lasted only three days, beginning on Monday, July 18, and ending Wednesday, July 19. At the end of the last adjourned and in last days, six minutes the verdict freeing Shelley was rendered, which decision was said to be the speediest reached by a military tribunal in the history of the District of Columbia. Much interest has been exhibited in the trial of this case because of its being brought before a military tribunal instead of a civil tribunal. Colored Man Appointed State Librarian (By The Associated Negro Press) Charleston, W. Vn., July 27. The judges of the supreme court here have entered a vacation order appointing J. A. Jackson, colored, as State librarian in succession to Gen. Benjamin H. Oxley, whose term of four years expired on July 1. Librarian has been connected with the court for many years, also serving as assistant librarian, and the judges personally knew his fitness for the position. He gave bond and entered upon the duties.

YOUNG... See', and Asst. Editor WHERE ABLE LEADERSHIP IS NEEDED It is going to take able and far-sighted leadership to bring the colored voters of Virginia and of the South out of their present political dilemma. Any attempt to show a larger Negro than white vote for the purpose of controlling patronage, even if it succeeded, would be futile, so far as the Harding administration is concerned, as shown by a very definite and positive declaration of Mr. Harding himself, published elsewhere in this paper under a Washington headline, in addition to the present Georgia situation, where Mr. Harding has directed the dissolution of the State organization which was controlled by colored men. The obvious idea of the colored political leaders under the guidance of Mr. Joseph R. Pollard, is to show the voting strength of the colored Republicans of the State as compared with the white Republican vote. What this will accomplish under the persistently preclaimed policy of the Harding Administration is not quite clear to this paper. If the idea is to deflect the colored vote from the Republican party as represented by the whites, and all other parties, its wisdom is questionable, as it shows that the colored voters want to be Republicans or nothing—which is an out-of-date state of mind, and has neither common sense nor logic to support it. The Republican party is still very much of a minority party in Virginia and in the South, and it is of record that the Republican party has openly disavowed the principles upon which it was founded chiefly owing them its belief in the doctrine of human rights. This is the Republican party that is recognized by the Harding Administration. The situation is that, with calm, deliberate discussion of our leadership. In favor of Mr. Palmer, Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Newman and others who are ready to show a full Newticket in the field, there is that fact that they are making a protest against the violation of a great principle. When fundamental principles are violated or otherwise are openly violated it is hard for men to exercise a defence. But to this purpose is "hily-black" party is also a reasonable as well as a white party. That is one reason why the writer of this article felt impelled to define the proffered nomination for the office of lieutenant governor on the "hily-black" party ticket. We believe that a statewide referendum would dislodge in the minds of the majority a serious doubt as to the efficacy of this method in the proper solution of our problems. THE COMING PRIMARY Next Tuesday the Democratic primary will be held, the nominees of which will be elected. This, under the election laws of Virginia, is strictly a "family" affair, the fight being among candidates of the same faith but representing different factions. The local offices are those of Clerk of the Corporation Court and City Sergeant, the incumbents being James V. Trehy, and William M. Hamman. Both of the incumbents have a large number of friends, and other than this are unusually popular, being friendly to the high as well as the low. While we take no active part, we are convinced that there are no offices run on a more efficient basis than these, and it has been well said that under Mr. Trechy's administration, the Clerk's office of the Courts of the Corporation and Law and Chancery, are conducted in a way to win the approval of lawyers and laymen for the prompt, courteous and indiscriminate treatment by the incumbent and his fine corps of assistants. As to the office of City Sergeant, there has been a marked improvement over old conditions, and under the Hannan administration, the jail has been renovated, painted, and made sanitary. It appears that under the circumstances, the incumbents should be retained. Honesty and efficiency warrant this. SHEER BARBARISM IN THE UNITED STATES The following sermon on "right-ousness, which exalteth a nation, and sin which is a reproach to any people," is taken from the Philadelphia Record, the most reliable Democratic daily newspaper in the country, and should have the widest possible publicity; the Philadelphia Record says: "Words are inadequate to express the degradation of the Southern woman since where woman was tarred and feathered because she had been married three times, and where similar treatment was administered to a clergyman who had been guilty of the heinous offense of seeking to impart education to colored persons. The lack of chivalry evidenced by the punishment of the woman is characteristic of the ruffians who under the pretext of protecting the public morals, play to their own unwieldy instinct. The must be regarded as the sum of the earth. "The people of America annually raise many millions of dollars for the education of Africans, Chinese, Esquimaux and other backward races. This is considered unlawful in a dictionary. The policy he followed with the unfortunate who are in our very midst? Is not the American Negro as much entitled to an education as a native of Liberia or Alaska? To call such instruction the preaching of social equality, the man engaged in such excellent labor, betrays an abysmal depth of ignorance and prejudice. "Such incidents, confined almost entirely to beinended seeing the threat to the law, are a burning disagree with the whole United States. They reveal an underlying stratum of barbarism that is alarming. No nation can be civilized that does not brutally pass without a vigorous protest. The clergyman so tortured was Archdeacon Philip S. Irwin, in Miami in charge of Protestant Episcopal Church work, among Afro-Americans and a citizen of Great Britain. He was warned to leave his work or he would be lynched, but he gritted his teeth and said he would stick to his work. Strangely enough the British Government announces that it will take no action in the matter, as it is confident that the American authorities will see that justice is done. We do not believe that the American authorities will do anything of the sort. The State of Florida will not and the Federal Government dares not. STANDING COLLAR FARMERS Professor Thomas B. Fatterson Farm Demonstrator in the Kewan County, North Carolina, District, and one of the best informed and most devoted uplift workers the race has in the Real Messenger, a farm journal published at Tuskegee Institute has a very readable article in the July issue, on "Farmers' Organizations and How to Hold Them," in which he says: "After having organized a farm club in a community the most difficult model in that one, the average worker is perhaps the one of the least "The trouble is sometimes made by the mother that the physician should come to visit him because he has been ill, but sometimes he comes about the repulsed need of treatment, which he may do for a season and occasionally he may be heard to say in the first few meetings. "Fessure sure did made a powerful talk, and as I heard him do firmly say it in no time the doctor after him told me that he would all alone be able to help the boy. I could not believe the speech better. If I had known what he was talking about." It is things like the above that kill many clubs. "The fact to be kept in mind is that the average farmer is starving to death, as it were, for the simple farm knowledge, simply told and that no meeting will long attract him if he cannot understand what he hears. The businessman must take the knowledge that he has acquired and boil it down to suit the occasion." It is not only to farmers but to other mixed gatherings that "speakers to the head and heart" often talk way out of reach of those they desire to instruct or to persuade. The Apostle Paul was among the first teachers of plain speaking so that the listener could understand what was being told him, and those who follow that rule have always had the greatest influence. Fine speaking and use of technical terms should be reserved for the class room and associations of the learned. When this is not done the speaker discredits himself and fails to serve those whose time and attention he has invited. Professor Patterson says that those who speak out of reach of the farm audience, yet appear to know all about the farmer's business, are quickly dubbed as "standing collar farmers," the sort of creatures we all know to be the most useless sort of farmers. If the Rural Messenger would print Professor Patterson's article in a little leaflet and distribute it generally among our farmers it would be a great help to them. They cannot know unless they have a teacher, as the Apostle Paul insists and as experience teaches us, and certainly our farmers need all the education they can get as to the best methods of farming and marketing and of really living on their farms and getting the most out of life in doing so. MORBING JAPANESE WORKERS At a time when the United States is bending every effort to get the Japanese Government to consent to participation in the Conference on Disarmament and Far Eastern questions, labor union leaders at Turlock, California, did all they could to complicate the work of our Department of State by kidnapping and driving out of the district some fifty or more Japanese fruit and vegetable gatherers, who had been employed, it is alleged, at lower wages than the union called for. James Shea, the president of the union, has been arrested and the Jap- anese workers have been allowed to return to the district. There are some 60,000 Japanese workers on the Pacific Coast, and their spokesman says they are "well pleased with the way the American authorities are handling the situation at Turlock." Although Afro-Americans are citizens of the United States and of the States in which they reside, they have no Government of their own, the Government of the United States failing them, to protect them in their right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the right to labor being one of the essentials of "the pursuit of happiness." It will be otherwise, as we go along, or the Government will not endure; decency and order in the administration of Justice being the primary principle of governmental existence. --- WHIPPING POST FOR NEW YORK It is a very remarkable phase of human character that in an age of intense materialism, such as we are having, men imagine the way to fight materialism and the brutality of it, is to be more materialistically brutal. It is the few who stand as a stonewall for humaner methods who save the day to deceive and order and insure, by so doing, the gradual development of a higher and better condition of living. There is no truth uncovered by history more convincing than that brutality begets brutality. Multiplying offenses against the individual will ultimately create a group of the discontented strong enough to tear down the social system of the time and place. Clerodem in Russia proved this in the development of Sovietism, and Great Britain is dealing with a like disease in the growth of Irish Sinn Féinism, which is just now giving Great Britain more trouble than any other one thing. The United States is fostering a like condition by allowing the growth of lavished disregard of the civil and personal rights of its Afro-American citizenship. The chickens hatched by injustice and lawlessness always come home to roost. Brutality always reacts upon itself. Judge Fawcett, of the Supreme Court of New York, has drawn down upon his head the condemnation of all good citizens, by suggesting that New York should have a whipping post by which to punish malfections and misuse of various forms, such as they cause. Delinquency, which is recalled as a civilized and a approach to that state by good persons of light and learning, is not the enshrining of a rule to make lower it is his business to administer the law which the legislature makes. A New York newspaper points out that in the days when the whipping post was in existence crime was far more prevalent, in proportion to population than it is. It relates the story of the old river town in Georgia to the William's that the whipping post with their African-American help, with the result that he found Were were so brutalized that he had to resort to killing them, as they came to think that beating them was too mild. "He had been brutalized as well as his victims," says the paper, "by the whipping post, and the Georgia authorities are now trying their best to stamp out heating altogether." We doubt if the Georgia authorities are doing anything of the sort. The American people should grow to be more humane and not more brutal than they are. The whipping post is a barbarism. PROHIBITION A MORAL DETERENT Editor Journal and Guide. Editor Journal and Glue. Sir, when the oldstead act went into effect, the oldstead prohibition asked to give it a chance to prove its benefice to the country, claiming that we would soon become accustomed to being dry, and that the world, especially America would be better off. The same claim was made by the goodly reformers who by legislative enactment, ablished the "red light" districts. The effect of the former act has honeycombed the nation with hypocrites, liars, legislature-made criminals and a host of boat-leggers greater than the army of ex-convicts with hypocrites, late world war. As it is the most natural thing for men to seek the line of least resistance, so men who formerly worked for honest livings have turned their wits to the making of corn whiskey and other deleterious stuff, because of the great profit and the almost impossible detection from arrest in their operations which give them profit greater than the promoters of oil. That the latter legislative attempt to regulate morals in the police records to ascertain where the painted women of the underworld now live. No law could kill them, nor could they be removed on masse from any community. Yet the shortsighted reformers believe within their conceived hides that because they have been driven from one certain locality, the women themselves have been reformed, and the sore of the social cancer has been removed. Instead of isolating the disease, they have by their attempt spread and contaminated the entire community. As for the production and all its amendments, no law they have been placed, the statutes of a free country that has been more ignored or definitely been violated. To think of the large number of farmers who have deserted agriculture for distilling; the number of men and women who have stopped working at industrial pursuits for soothe the Government has seen fit to attempt to regulate the appetites of NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE d to some its citizens, denying the privilege of reputable business men to manufacture ardent spirits and automatically giving free license to a class of people way who make it over night in galvanized tins and oil stoves. The local courts are filled with violators of the prohibition act as well as the Federal. The teeth of the Volstead and state laws are false—portable adjustable. That the laws, both national and state should be repeal, goes without saying. If for no other reason the state should right the determination and for the sake of purging the country of a law that is held in contempt, unenforceable and which is being constantly violated with impunity. No right thinking person wishes to see that salmon's return, but it is dangerous when a man says to say what a man shall eat drink. But say the prohibitionists: "The country will soon be dry." But not as long as the Atlantic and Pacific oceans occupy their relative geographical positions; not as long as ships plow these shores from foreign parts; not long as corn is raised will they realize an American dry." During the war they sang on a song, we once keep 'un on the farm after they've seen Parce?" A comparison song should be written: "How are we going to keep this country dry as long as we are plumbing the ocean; will per cent more dope addicts account for this since the passage of the law, can any one but a fool feel that prohibition has been a blessing to this nation? If every other man made a prohibition deputy, and every other deputy is made a deputy to watch the deputy, will this act, born in the threes, be deputy, partially enforced? The temptation that it can too strong and the desire for that forbidden too great to think that it can be enforced to such an extent as to prevent Americans from urging that any law that has behind it such little public opinion should be repealed, against the eightth amendment is made to be repealed, half as the 14th and 15th amendments, dealing with the rights, liberties and properties of the citizens. In the words of the Alcany Journal: "John Barbgeon is only legally dead. He doesn't have to pay taxes." JAMES M. HARRISON A. M. E. Conference Session Successful The Portsmouth District Conference of the Virginia Annual Conference convened at South Hill A. M. E. church, Norfolk Co. Va., July 19-20, 1921. At the opening session Tuesday morning, Presiding Elder, Dr. E. H. Hunter, briefly unfolded in approval of the papers well received. During the organization, Rev. G. Q. Wing and Mr. Morriss were elected secretary and assistant secretary, respectively. The paying of assessments and the grants admitted from charges were met, with sending the annual slump, collecting matched and greedy prepares, upon the termination the disciplinary reports, because of their high order, evoked enthusiasm and protracted comments and discussions. Rev. A. J. Nottingham, who delivered the annual session, added new laurels to his popularity as an expounder of the gospel. After the regular routine of business, Mr. Frank G. Russell, of St. James A. M. E. church and Mr. Elkord Foster of "Ellen Emanuel" were elected delegates to the annual conference which will be held at Roundock, Va. April, 1922. Mr. J. S. Jones, of the Tidewater Bank and Trust Co., delivered an annual address on "Fannie Mae's Fertility, practical andquent treatment of the subject it was very sinisterly received. During the afternoon, the "Meeting of the Woman's Mite Missionary Society," directed by Mrs. Sylvia B. Bynum and Mrs. J. M. Hunter was characterized by a high degree of religious fervor. The topics were appropriate and peculiar interest was manifested in their discussion. Just before the benediction, Rev. L. L. Berry, on behalf of the conference, expressed in unique words, their gratitude to the commenting siding elder for the encouraging issue of one of the most successful conventions of the district. The evening or closing session brought to us a spiritual feast. The annual missionary sermon preached by Rev. S. W. Fugua was an ecclesiastical gem. Just before adjournment, gem. B. W. Huntner, presiding graphically and eloquently to the delegates and friends for their loyalty and substantial support which had so highly conduced to the progress and success of the conference. Because of the cheerful, generous and hospitable reception which was accorded the delegation and visitation, gem. B. Shaw, and his people, Rev Hunter expressed our keen and genuine thanks. All who availed themselves of the opportunity of being present reaped a great harvest of benefit and inspiration. So thrilled and impressed were the representatives to their posts that they would work with unfailing zeal and determination to make more brighten the corner where they are. Virginia Federation of Colored Women The Fourteenth Annual Session of the Virginian Federation of Colored Women's Clubs convened in Lexington 'Vn.

Mrs. Tyrell, president of the Woman's Baptist Association of Lynchburg, Va. made a wonderful address. Reports of the auditor and commissioner were given. The next session of the Federation will be held in Norfolk, June 1922. THE MEMBERS OF THE MIDDLE EAST RAILWAY ASSOCIATION READING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT—Front Row: W. H. Land, V. C. Hodges, W. L.

President Harding May Be Present (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, July 29—Dr. S. E. Watson, chairman of the Evangelistic Board of the National Baptist Convention, has just completed arrangements for the meeting of the Board in the magnificent Pilgrim Baptist Temple, Indiana Avenue and 33rd St., of which he is the pastor. This meeting will be held during the week immediately preceding the big convention. In this same auditorium the Equal Rights League will hold its convention during the week immediately following the close of the Baptists' meeting in the Pilgrim Temple's auditorium on tenth of September. President Harkings has pressed an intention to be in Chicago at that time and address the convention should public business at Washington permit. Special attention is being given these two meetings because they will be held in what is now regarded as the most beautiful and costly church structure owned by colored people in the country. The country used at $200,000 and has a seating capacity of 3,000. The membership of this big religious organization has grown during the past 14 months from 753 to 3492. The pastor, Dr. Watson, is now placed among the great pulpit orators in the country to have institutional features to the work Temple which include helpful activities for both children and adults. He is also active in the recently organized Community Service work in this city, being a member of its Advisory Board. White Men Assaulted Woman (By The Associated Negro Press) Meridian, Miss., July 27.—Later information from Bell Pine, Rankin Co., where a criminal assault occurred on a young woman, corrects some of the charges and admits the crimes. The young woman was only 16 years of age and not 30, as given out. Her father is a minister.

She states that two white men met her and that one hold a姑娘 and that both men assaulted her and that both men assaulted her and left her.

Plans To Eliminate Home Shortage (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington D. C., July 27.—Plans for relieving the estimated shortage of 1,500,000 homes throughout the country through the diversion of a greater proportion of the property of 100,000 in savings deposits into home building are under consideration by Secretary Hoover. The Secretary of Commerce considers that there has been a tendency during the past few years for the savvy to enter into commercial paper bonds and similar securities rather than into home building while a critical housing situation.

In A Live City Norfolk, Virginia ation has developed, with about 117 families for each 100 homes. The chief reliance of the country in the necessary financing of home building, in the opinion of Mr. Hoover, must be the savings institutions. With a total of $22,000,000,000 available from these sources, he believes it will be found after eliminating the building and loan societies and actual savings banks, who devote about 50 per cent of their deposits to home building, that the savings departments of national banks, State banks, trust companies and insurance companies, comprising more than one half of the total, probably do so loan more than 10 or 15 per cent of their savings assets to housing. Unable To Estimate Fall Business (By The Associated Negro Press) New York, N. Y., July 27.—It is estimated in most of the markets that the country is not yet in position to auto the sort of business which the autumn months will bring. This is not unusual. The approach to mid-summer in years under burbed by slackened industry and trade is the present is nearly always marked by a waiting attitude on the part of merchants and manufacturers. The plans of merchandise interests are shaped by contemplation of the crops in the wheat harvest is mostly in hand, and August, it is usually difficult to determine, extensive will be the purchasing power of communities and cities dependent upon them. This summer, however, the fact of business depression which must be measured by almost full twelve months, has to be aligned with seasonal dullness in forming judgments of the future. And, as far as the mind is concerned, complications are inserted into the state of mind caused by widely voiced公信ation that little improvement can be looked for until the autumn season is well developed.

(6) 1959, by McCure Newspaper Syndicate Young Jim Standing opened his eyes, yawned and stretched his long, healthy body leisurely. He turned over on the other side, his sleepy eyes falling on the clock. "Good night!" he gasped in dismay, briefly awake now he impaled out of toot and pulled back, the blinds. He groaned about as the room was flooded with the mild sunshine of an early spring forecourt. Young Jim's thoughts were bitter as he hastily splashed in the cold tide. As he dressed his thoughts grew more bitter. "A fine excuse I have to offer Dawnie for not turning up. Poor kid, how disappointed she must have been. After all her planning, she. She may break off for this," the last thought proved too much for poor Jim's peace of mind, and guiding his black coffee without tasting it he dashed off towards Dawnie's home. On the way he tried to think of some excuse less humiliating than the truth. Young Jim was engaged to little Dawn Cracken, a lovely blonde young person to whom life was one sweet romance. She was not a glady yet bawdy for she could cook and sow and be lovely very nicely. Her old fashioned mother had seen to that Dawn's small head under the crinkly baby gold curls hold a clever little brain. But Dawn had led to have trouble. When her eldest brother she could create it. She could brow and brow hair always, as she would probably have. But she would have been in the war with her parents, and the clever girl probably had no idea that the only woman she could have made more than she would have been so lucky to have had to侍卫 Dawn on the day. But Jim was as welcome in the Cracken house as Dawn herself. So Dawn made up all brother of stunts for Jim to go through with Jim agreed to "dunkestine" meetings and buried partitions with tolerant good nature. "It amuses Dawnie and it does no harm," he would say. Jim had balked at Dawnie's last scheme, though in the end he gave in as usual. "Let's clope!" she had coaxed in her prettiest way. "Weddings are so dull and commonplace. What a lark it would be!" "But we can have the wedding at home." Jim protested. "Silly!" Dawn rebukek, kissing him as only Dawn could. "We want to steal off in the 'dend of night' just as if father would really pursue us." And so Jim, feeling rather foolish, gave in. They agreed that about two o'clock Sunday morning was the best time. Jim was to leave his reader a block from the Cricklin home, and Dawn would wait for him in her room. Her room was on the second floor overlooking the garden, so she could have all the romance she craved, even to the provender ladder. And at the last moment Jim had failed her for the most prosaic of reasons. He had worked hard all week on some important plans. Saturday afternoon he took Dawn to a matinee. That evening he worked with his partner on an important hurry plan. About ten he had gone to his room, packed his suitcase and lain down to rest. The next thing he remembered was awakening in broad daylight. Small wonder then that Jim's feet lagged as he came within sight of Dawn's home. He had nothing to say but the truth, and he could not say that. With a grim smile he climbed the steps of the Cricklin's front porch. "What the—" he stammered as the front door drew open and a lovely vision in pink silk and lace threw herself into his arms. "Oh, Jim," the vision cried between kisses, "you aren't angry with me, are you, dear? I am so sorry I kept you waiting in the damp old garden. You will forgive me, won't you, dear, when I explain?" "Yes, dear, of course," Jim assured her dazedly. "Oh, I'm so relieved. You see, at the last moment I thought it would be more romantic if I pretended we had been discovered. My cruel parents (Jim sailed at this, even in his wife/parent) forced me to stay a prisoner in Aunt Jane's room. I pretended I had a toothache, so wanted to stay with aunt. It was great fun, but I'm sorrow for you, Jimmy. Say you don't mind." Dawnie paused to catch her breath, her eyes dark with pleading. Young Jim breathed a fervent prayer of thanksgiving and atoned said, with an air of gracious generosity: "Yes, I forgive you, but you must "Yes, I forgive you, but you must say yes me another such score" PAGE FIVE Cotton Crop Held Its Own (By The Associated Negro Press) Shreveport, Pa., July 29.—The cotton crop has as good as hold its own, and probably improved somewhat since the last of June. Boll weevil is the chief cause of most of the apprehension that exists as to the yield. Weevils are more numerous and active in some sections, notably in those where heavy infestation is of comparatively recent date, and less active in others. Weather influence upon weevil is marked. Lack of moisture and high temperatures have perceptibly checked weevil where a month ago great damage was in prospect, and less damage than was expected has occurred. MODERATOR J. H. ASHBY.

TUESDAY, AUGUST, 30 TO SEPTEMBER 4 The Lott Carey Baptist Foreign Mission Convention will meet this year in Newark, N. J., upon the invitation of the Bethany Baptist church, Dr. E. E. Ricks, pastor. This convention is one of the most unique bodies of Baptists in this country at that its meetings nothing is considered other than foreign missions. This gathering of Baptists is concerned only in giving the Gospel to those who have it not and in going to Newark it will not deviate from its constitutional course. It will interest, no doubt, the public to know that this organization has given to foreign missions more than 80% of all money coming into its hands since its first session. The increase of its finance has been phenomenal, and the twenty-third, it raised in round numbers about forty thousand dollars. When it was organized it began work with one missionary and his wife. Today it has forty-one missionaries in its employment in foreign lands, including Haiti. When it was organized it operated only in the Congo, Africa; but now West Africa, Nyassaland, Zimbabwe, East and Central Africa, co-operating in South Africa, operating in South America and Haiti. The slogan for this year is for at least fifty thousand dollars at the Newark meeting. It is a challenge to Baptists everywhere as to missionary work. Will the challenge be accepted? If so, report at Newark, for the harvest is not only great, but also white with ripened green flesh. There are home are few, when compared as to numbers and opportunities. The Lott Carey Convention is also an answer to prayer and a challenge to our churches here in America. The above quotation has been prayed too many times and the churches have thought that the laborers were altogether for the lost job. Forty applications upon the waiting list of our Convention for service in foreign lands. Many of these would be a captured and employed but for the need of increased offerings so as to pay them for service. Will we let this condition exist? A solution of every human problem join in with us in sending the Gospel of Christ into the neglected portions of the world which alone can solve every question. Meet the Lott Carey Convention in Newark and study its method of work and spirit and help the work of the Kingdom on from conquest to con SECOND CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH Services in our church were good throughout the day.

Bowling last Sunday morning, not one of the vast number in attendance can have a mistaken idea of the place of God in the religious, business, political and civic life of the community. The pastor spoke from the theme, "Devices in the place of God," text, Isa. 22:11. Rev. Bowling seemed greatly refreshed from his past and delivered an instructive message. He was loud in his denunciation of wrong doing whether practiced in the pulpit or pew. The Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. were largely attended. At 4 p.m. under the auspices of the David King Bible Class, Mr. Chas. S. Morris Jr. delivered a wholesome address from the subject, "The Negro in the new Adjustment." His message was approved and addressed by the high audience. In the evening service Rev.

He stressed the necessity of simplicity in our giving, praying and preaching. A special invitation is extended to every visitor and stranger to be present this Sunday.

The Sunday school at 9:30 a.m., was largely attended and very interesting. We were favored with the presence of a number of strangers on last Sunday, they are welcome to our school. We also have a number of people expecting you to be present next Sunday. The Excelsior Class remains the banner class of our school. At the morning preaching hour, the pastor, Rev. N. D. King, filled his pulpit and delivered an excellent sermon to the delight of all present. At the close of this sermon three persons attended the sermon with the church. This was rally day in our church, we were striving to raise twenty-three hundred dollars on this day to pay off the bonded indebtedness on the church, and at the close of the sermon Dr. D. W. Byrd who was present at the morning service made the appeal and there was a very lively response. At afternoon service the pastor preached the annual sermon of the Daughter of Elks and a large num- was present at these services and the services were very impressive. At the evening preaching hour we only had a short song service and then again turned our attention to the rally and several responded to the call of the captains. We succeeded in raising on last Sunday, seventeen hundred (1750.50) fifty-seven dollars and fifty cents so you see we are a NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE little bit short of our goal to the amount of a little over five hundred dollars; but we believe by next Sunday when all the gleanings are gathered and those who haven't as yet paid anything in this financial effort come and do something towards the lifting of the bonded indebtedness on the church that we will have what we have asked for if not more. Every loyal member who has not as yet paid earnestly requested by the pastor and officials to come up on next Sunday. Strangers, visitors and friends are always welcome to all of our services. SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH Notwithstanding the fact that many of our folks are out of the city our services were well attended last Sunday. We were pleased to note several visitors of local residence and others as out-of-town guests. The morning man was preached by the pastor, basse de l'église, of the "Church of the Victory of the Church," Micah 4:1. It was a glorious message, and greatly enjoyed by the splendid congregation that heard it. We are glad to say that our church is getting on nicely, all the departments are alive and progressing, looking forward with a hope that we shall do greater things for the Lord. In the future we shall begin a week of evangelistic services. Mrs. Evangelistic Hicks of Washington will be with us. She is a great singer, come and hear and bear. ST. JAMES A. M.

"By Faith, Moses, when he was 14,24-25 to years, refused to be called the son of Pharoh's daughter." Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season. The A. C. E. League is growing spiritually.

Presbyterian family in this city, Philadelphia. At the Spring sitting of the Presbytery of Southern Virginia, a congregation at West Murden sent up a petition bearing thirty one signatures, asking that they be organized into a Presbyterian Church. The realization of this hope came to them Sunday the 24th, when a commission headed by A.M. Hector, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Richmond, and Elders L.J. Moone and J. Riley Dungee of Bethany Presbyterian Church of Norfolk went over and put into effect Presbytery's order to organize. This congregation is at present worshiping in an old church building situated on a very desirable corner where it is hoped that in the very near future, a creditable structure will be built. They will be temporarily associated with Bethany Church in pastoral ministration. (J. P. Henley) Services were well attended on last Sunday. The old bell that has been silent for some time rang again and called many to the Sabbath School. The rally put on by the Men's League at the morning hour was a great success, the sermon was preached by the pastor, and collection raised by Deacon Porter of Shoulders Hill. We feel proud of Mr. C. K. Wallace, president of the Man's League, also vice-president of the B. Y. P. U. and wish to congratulate him for his splendid service rendered here. Many visitors were present and worshiped with us, one of them being Hoffman who preached at the evening hour. HELP WITH THE POOR MOTHERS AND CHILDREN SUMMER OUTING The Salvation Army will be very active for the next few weeks soliciting funds for the poor people's summer outing. We are planning to take 150 poor mothers and children to our annual summer outing, August 17th, to Little Bay Beach. Up to Sunday we thought there was no way possible for us to do so, but when we consider the disappointment that it brings to the poor mothers and children of our community this day of rest and pleasure by the water, away from their domestic duties and home care for the day, there won't be any excuse, as there was no effort made to secure funds. Now we are going to make a canvas for same, and believe for nothing but success. I am asking the co-operation of our friends. For the next few weeks we will be approaching you on this important cause, relying on you for your local support as you have done in the next. Captain. Bailey 1036 CHAPEL STREET GRACE P. E.

Hamilton Seey, of the Convocation of Southern Va. which will meet at St. Pauls Church, Union Level, on Tuesday August, 9-11th. The programme provides for much business of the Church during those days which are of great interest. ANNUAL MEETING VIRGINIA BAPTIST STATE SUNDAY. Attention, Sunday Schools, B. Y. P. U.'s Sunday School Unions and District Conventions!! The attention of the various bodies comprising the Virginia Baptist State Sate Sunday School convention is again called to the annual convention of this body at Charlottesville, Va. August 25, 1921. The State B. Y. P. U. will hold its annual session August 24th. Thus in reality the convention will meet on August 24th and extend to August 28th, $6,500 is slender and if every school will do its part, I am sure that this amount will be raised Second Baptist Sunday School at Richmond has set the pace. This school had a rally for missions the third Sunday in this month. The amount raised was $1,600. Three classes of this school contributed $350.00; $24.00, and Mr. William I. Hopkins class contributed $255.05. It is second. Second Baptist Sunday School stands as a financial giant, but I believe there are some schools of the State and especially in Tidewater, that can wrest the championship from the mighty giant. All the bodies composing our State Convention will do in proportion to their size as Second Baptist Sunday School sits down. The Cover-Smallwood situation and many others will no longer be a problem difficult to solve. The railroad fare from Norfolk to Charlottesville over the C & O. is $7.06, but a conference with the ticket agent has revealed the fact that it will be possible for delegates and others leaving Norfolk for Charlottesville to buy round trip tickets at the convention, for $128, thus saving $129, the ticket will be good until October 31st. Perhaps there will be some schools that will not be able to send a delegate to represent them in the convention. Therefore it will be expedient for them to represent by letter. All letters containing representation fees will be addressed as follows: Pres. W. P. Epps, Va. Baptist State Sunday School Convention. In care of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Charlottesville. Lovely Baptist Sunday School, the church of which is affiliated with the Baptist General Association of Va., represent in the convention this year either by delegate or letter. In as much as the Missionary cannot visit all schools in Tidwater, he is using the Journal and Guide as a means of spreading the news of the convention. Watch the Journal and Guide. Hoping to greet the great Baptist forces at Charlottesville at the above stated time, I am, yours for the spreading of the Gospel of Christ, BOUSON, District Missionary 929 Cleveland St. Norfolk, Va.

New York, Boston, Providence, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Norfolk and possibly Wilmington, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Chicago, St. Louis, and Kansas City are the towns most likely to be included. The most of these cities are the theatre, now playing to a large percentage of our people, and in the places where this condition does not exist houses will either be built or "white" houses leased for the use of the Hill-Weingarden attractions. Musical comedies, burlesque, tabloids with a variety setting, minstrels, all-star vaudeville and drama will take their various turns over the time. Take a company like the Billy King company, for example. It will play two shows in each town, making each a one or two weeks' stand. The same will be done with the burlesque and dramatic shows. In this manner practically thirty weeks' consecutive booking will be had. Even three weeks can be played in three or four of the cities. But there will be sufficient comparison around a foregone conclusion, as there will be added several of the new "carton" musical comedies which are fast growing into popular favor. In addition, it is said, from time to time some special attraction in the form of a review will be sent over the time. At least three dramatic companies could easily be put together. In the musical comedy line there are the King company, Frank Montgomery's company, the two Irvin C. Miller groups and several others. There are also four or five splendid minstrel shows, and vaudeville acts galore. The world knows that there is sufficient talent abroad to build up three or four burlesque companies. This would open a new field and would give the circuit a diversified tone that no other circuit in the world has today. The fact that unlimited money is behind the movement takes the report out of the doubtful class. It will be a step forward, and the idea should meet with the sanction of all who are interested in the welfare of our performers. It will in no way be a competitive idea, as far as any existing circuit is concerned, and hundreds of capable and talented people who are leaving today will be placed in a position to show their goods in one or the other of the angles above described. THEATRES CLOSING There are more theatres closed today than at any time in the past ten years and in New York City Broadway is in despair. Song managers foresee the present conditions as long ago as the beginning of Lent and began to make their plans accordingly, says a writer in the N. Y. Times. The Lenten slump was beyond the expected proportions, and the Easter Monday recovery was below the average. Business has continued to grow worse since Easter. Many theatres closed and road shows were constantly disbanded and today there are five thousand chorus girls (white) out of work in New York City. The colored theatres throughout the country have not escaped the effects of the slump and one of the big colored circuits, the T, O, R, A., there are twenty-five houses closed. The result is there are more colored performers in New York City out of employment than has ever been known before. The scarcity of attractions has caused considerable inconvenience to the few colored houses that are trying to keep open all summer. It is said that there will be a very few houses to remain open during the month of August. The moving picture theatres have not escaped the effect of the slump and several firms have made a practice of leasing theatres have decided to turn them back to the owners. Something like 100 of these theatres will go back to the owners in the next few weeks. Attucks Closes During August The Attucks Theatre will close down Monday and remain closed during the month of August in preparation for the opening of the new season Monday. Lab E Day, September 5. Manager E. R. Cross will leave the first of the month on a soothing tour or the North and West during which time he will sign contracts with the leading colored theatrical companies of the country that are expected to play the Attucks next season. While Manager Cross is away a general house cleaning and renovation will take place preparatory to the big coming events. Looking over the program that has already been lined up and for which the manager will make final arrangements during his tour, it is judged that the Attucks is to have bigger and better attractions than have ever before been staged in this beautiful playhouse. After a brief rest the public will be in readiness for a reception of the opening never before accorded a playhouse in this city. JUDGE GIVES COLORED BOY OPPORTUNITY (By The Associated Negro Press) Brockton, Mass., July 27—(Special) Judge Robert F. Raymond, presiding Justice at the term of Superior Court in this city, caused a profound sensation when, after declaring that the Negro race in the North was not given even as much chance as in the South, he formally revoked the lower court sentence of Roy B. Scott, a colored youth of this city, of six months the House of Correction, to him on probation. After delivering a court judgment address he called Scott to the bench, clasped his hands warmly and urged him to go forth and bravely face the battle of life. SOME DOPE Organization Not Functioning So Well Under Present Leadership. Reorganization May Be Attempted. SCOTT SHOWING LITTLE INTEREST (By The Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., July 27.—What is the matter with the National Negro Business League? That is the question that is being asked by a number of people in various parts of the country. Some months ago the local Business League began in earnest to prepare for the annual meeting. A strong organization was effect, d, and there is at present a paid secretary of the local branch who is helping to push matters for the annual meeting session. The local League announced that it would give a great Industrial Exhibit during the season to show the progress of the race in business. There have been some responses, and there will be an exhibit, but it will be nothing like what was at first contemplated. Where is the trouble? The trouble seems to be in the official make-up of the national body. There seems to be a very serious tension, if not friction, between leading officials of that body, each of whom has his own ideas and ideals concerning the promotion of the work of the League. Very recently there was a meeting held in Philadelphia, attended by Dr. R. R. Moton, president of the League, and others, seeking to find some way out of the difficulty. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary of the League, was not at this meeting, and it is not known whether he was expected. Several suggestions were made to stabilize the League, and it is certain that the forthcoming meeting will be filled with great deal more fireworks than even the Philadelphia meeting, when the matter of officers was a debated question up to an hour before the report of the nominating Committee. Ever since the establishment of the League, it has been the custom of Dr. Scott to send out publicity for the meeting to the newspapers, weeks in advance. This year there has been very little publicity going to the newspapers from the Washington headquarters. There are hundreds of business men throughout the country who are anxious to see a thriving national organization, who are of the opinion that fractional troubles should not be permitted to hamper the growth of the League work. Atty. Perry W. Howard, Special Assistant Attorney General, has sent out a notice to all lawyers of the country arguing them to be present at the meeting of the Bar Association which meets here simultaneously with the League. According to information received here, there will be an unusual attendance of lawyers at the Association, of which Mr. Howard is President.

He went into minute detail in the discussion of his subject and presented an analytic account of our position in this new age of a migrancy. "Solemn, wisdom's strongest champion declared thousands of years ago that there is nothing new under the sun." Wise men have a successfully soared to disprove this statement. We may give to old subjects a new treatise, as a man of 80 years, attained in gay garb to impress one that declining years hold no terrors for him or as the mother of 60 who from the rear appears to be sweet 16 or coming 21. "The speaker stated further that this is a world of mind and if you can change the mind of the world you can change the world." Among the prominent persons occupying the platform was Mrs. Frank Anthony Walker, white, who seated the orator's hand, and each one I can speak of you and I am certain you must be."

Advertise Your Business Advertising is the life of trade. The business man who labors under the impression that "everybody knows me" will make very slow progress and will soon be wondering why the other fellow is out-stepping him. Billy Sunday preaches to more people than any other minister because he advertises the gospel. Had John Wanamaker had the "every body knows me" idea he would today be the obscure merchant he was when he started in business. He believes in advertising and has built up a hundred million dollar business and a national reputation. Everybody knows where Wanamaker's store is, but for fear that somebody will miss his sale he puts a page ad in the newspaper every day. Some business men depend on their old customers to bring new ones. That's good, but many men are out of business today because their old customers died.
