FIRST IN LIVE NEWS ALL THE TIME PRES.HARDING TAKES STAND ON RACE ISSUE In Birmingham Speech, President Harding Says That Race Question Is Now National Rather Than Sectional DEPLORES USE OF NEGRO IN POLITICS In President Harding's address at Birmingham, Ala., last week, on the occasion of the Semi-Centenial celebration of that city, he made a number of statements that have caused nation-wide comment. His utterances on the race question have provoked a number of Southerners to great indignation. The portion of his address which relates to that all important topic follows; "Exhausted and afflicted by the horrors of the World War, the nations are seeking means to prevent repetition of such an experience. They see the nede for effective reform in international relationships and, along with this for many alterations and adaptations of domestic institutions which will better fit them for the new time. Our own country, though its necessities are less onerous, its difficulties are no prerivious as those of many others, yet yet occasion to consider wherein it may better it methods, adjust itself to the new relationships, and equip itself for the new struggle that lies ahead. Concerning one phase of this national problem, I want to say a few words. "If the Civil War marked the beginnings of industrialism in a South which had previously been almost entirely agricultural, the World War brought us to full recognition that the race problem is national rather than merely sectional. There are no unavoidable statutes, but it is common knowledge that the World War was marked by a great migration of coerced people to the North and West. They were attracted by the demand for labor and the higher wages offered. It has brought the question of race closer to the North and West and I believe it has served to modify somewhat the views of those sections on the South, in order to make the South realize its industrial base. The labor of the black man, and made the North realize the difficulties of the community in which two greatly differing races are brought to live side by side. I should say that it has been responsible for a larger charity on both sides, a beginning of better understanding and, in the light of perhaps that we should consider perhaps that we shall be able to consider together as a problem of all sections, and of both races in whose solution the best intelligence of both must be enlisted.

Church Pledge Support By Frissell Z Willis For the first time in the State of Virginia, and the second time in the United States, steps were taken at the First Baptist church for the inauguration of the Big Brother Movement, under the auspices of the David King Bible Class. The object of the movement taken last Sunday is to promote social service work, particularly in caring and directing of boys. S. Grove and B. G. Campbell and Honorable R. C. Codes, representing the Wesleymen Bible Class of the M. E. Church, were present and spoke enthusiastically of the success of the Wesleymen of their church. Those gentlemen explained to the congregation how the movement should be organized and how their organization had done great work in interesting many of the young boys. The Wesleymen Class of Norfolk is eight hundred strong and the young men of the First Baptist church were urged to reinforce their numbers and were assured of any possible assistance from the representatives of the Wesleymen. Mr. Campbell is the Social Service Director of the Wesleymen. Among other speakers who spoke in behalf of this movement were Prof. W. H. Hill and Dr. D. W. Byrd. Dr. Byrd and Prof. Hill seem interested in this movement and pledged their assistance. Dr. Byrd offered space at the Community Center as the headquarters for the young men of the David King Bible Class. Mr. A. T. Seemin Service Director, is the institute of the David King Brother Movement and hopes with the assistance of all members, to do great work in this connection. A splendid musical program was rendered. "Black Billy Sunday" At First Baptist Church Great Meeting Still, In Progress After Three Weeks For three full weeks Dr. C. P. Dixon, popularly known as the "Black Rilly Sunday," has been drawing great crowds of both white and colored people to hear his striking sermons. So great have been the crowds that frequently people have been turned from the doors. On one night the crowds were so large that a special overflow service was held in the Sunday school room with an attendance that run above five hundred. So far the crowd had hundred added to the membership of the First Baptist church, and scores have professed faith in Christ. Dr. Dixon will preach here both morning and night this Sunday. In the afternoon he will preach to men only in a great men's mass meeting. It is expected that he will be greeted by a show audience of men. Any fraternal wish to present in a body is asked to make reservations for special seats with Rev. F. W. Jacobs in the church office any time this week or Sunday morning. DRAMATIC ARTS The one year of activity in the Department of Dramatic Arts at Howard University was so successful that the present year finds an unusually full program for that department. The university hopes to secure a handsome auditorium which will contain a modernly appointed and equipped theatre where the Department of Dramatic Art may present its plays. The department is fortunate in having a highly efficient staff its head. Press Comment On President Harding's Birmingham Speech Y. M. C. A. Mass Meeting A Success The Y. M. C. A. mass meeting at the St. Luke's M. C. E. church was a great success. Those who failed to hear Mr. Morris Sunday night certainly missed a rare treat in oratory. Mr. Morris was at his best, and has never delivered a greater address in the city of Norfolk. Many times during his speech when he would soar on the wings of eloquence was moved to his usual manner he would bring them back to sober and pensive reasoning. He was well said that young Mr. Morris is a ship off the old block, an orator of no mean ability. The pastor, Rev. Mr. Rosser, and his congregation are to be congratulated upon their great step forward social progress. They gave the major church hour service over to the Y. M. C. A. program, and accepted whatever part of the collection Y. M. C. A. saw fit to give. This magnanimity on the part of this good pastor and his people might be well covered by every pastor and people in this city. Mr. D. D. Mattecks, the assistant secretary of the Y. M. C. A., presided. He asked for $35, and in less than ten minutes the people responded on the table. There were several white friends present, and one of them gave $6 in the collection. Two of them spoke of flow, they enjoyed the meeting, and thought that Mr. Morris's address was very timely. They both said that they endorsed the Harding The meeting was a success from every angle, and bids fair as a start for the ten thousand dollar Campaign, that the Y. M. C. A. is inaugurating this week. ANTI-LYNCHING BILL REPORTED The Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives Favorably Reports Anti-Lynching Bill Introduced by Rep. Dyer Representative Leonidas C. Dyer, of Missouri, who introduced the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in Congress, has sent out a copy of the new text of the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives. The next text which is given out as an exclusive release by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, came in a personal letter from Representative Dyer to James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the Association, prior to the printing of the bill. It embodies the suggestions made by the Department of Justice in order to remove any doubt as to the constitutionality of the measure. The full text of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill H. R. 13, as favorably reported to the United States Congress by the Committee on the Judiciary of the House of Representatives, is as follows: A BILL To assure persons within the jurisdiction of any State the equal protection of the laws. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the phrase "mob or riotous assemblage" when used in this act shall mean an assembly composed of five or more persons acting in concert for the purpose of depriving any person of his life without authority of law. Sec. 2. If any State or governmental subdivision thereof fails, neglects, or omits to provide and maintain protection to the life of any person within its jurisdiction against a State bill by reason of such failure, neglects, or omits to provide and maintain protection to the person deemed to have denied to such person the protection of the laws of the State, and to the end that such protection as is guaranteed to the citizens of the United States by its Constitution may be secured it is provided. Sec. 3. That any State or municipal officer charged with the duty or who possesses the power or authority to prohibit or to protect the life of any person who has to death by any mob or riotous assailant who has any such person in his charge as a prisoner, who fails, neglects, or omits to make all reasonable efforts to prevent such person from being put to death, or any State or municipal officer charged with the duty of apprehending or prosecuting any person participating in such mob or riot FORTY-THIRD NEGRO FAIR BIG SUCCESS Governor Morrison, Introduced By Berry O'Kelly of Method, N.C. President of State Fair Association, Makes Address The forty-third annual Negro State Fair of North Carolina at Raleigh, N. C., was formally opened by the president, Mr. Berry O'Kelly, of Method. The officers of the Fair were conducted to the grounds by a band, but a more pretentious parade was staged Wednesday when the Governor spoke. Exhibits this year, which are larger than usual, fill Floral Hall. The Women's Building is given over to Health Work. Among the schools represented are the A, & T. College Greenville, St. Augustine at Raleigh School, Raleigh Public School, the Pender County Training School, the Halifax County Training School, three Wake county schools, Halifasville, Wakefield and Zebulon. There is also a display of fancy work done by Raleigh people and others from Franklin county and the Woman's College. Here were numbers of other exhibitors, all whose work was deserving of special mention. The display by the West Indies Cigar Co., a Negro company was especially noteworthy. In his opening address President O'Kelly said: "It has long been an accepted truth that it is cheaper to maintain schools than it is to maintain jails and penal institutions; it is the illiterate, uneducated crime, graduates of our schools do not bring disgrace upon our race and beloved State. "There was a time when it was thought that the educated Negro would compete with white labor," he continued. "It has been found that the educated Negro finds a place for himself, usually among his own race, and that it is the illiterate Negro who competes with white labor and keeps and blocks among both whites and blacks at institutions." Our State seems to have found the remedy and is lending the way out." After congratulating Dr. E. C. Brooks and other officials of the present administration upon the present educational policy of the State, President O'Kelly reviewed the progress that has been made by North Carolina Negro in religion, business and farming. "He addressed closed with a reference to the splendid spirit of interracial cooperation that exists in matters that make for the upbuilding of North Carolina. "The colored citizens of North Carolina," said President O'Kelly, "desire to live in peace and harmony with their white neighbors. They desire to shoulder their burdens of taxation, to enter heartily into all movements that have as their aim the developments of the State; they desire to co-operate in the reduction of crime, in the improvement of public morals, in the decrease of illiteracy and the safety of all our institutions. We believe that we can attain all of these exalted desires without disturbing the proper status of our race relations or violating any of the established traditions." The governor led by the Shaw University Band, Governor Morrison was presented by President O'Kelly who on behalf of the Industrial Association extended thanks to every worker and exhibitor who contributed to make the fair a success and hoped that with the same co-operation to make the next Fair even better. "It is quite a distinction," said President O'Kelly, "the have the honor and pleasure of presenting to you at this time the Governor of North Carolina, who is my governor, your governor and the governor of all of the people. His Excellency, Cameron Morrison." The governor, who was warmly cheered when he rose to speak, expressed his physical inability to make an extended speech on this occasion, and man whose first thought it would not be when he was made governor that he was the governor of all of the people, Governor Morrison said: GOVERNOR OF ALL PEOPLE GOVERNOR OF ALL PEOPLE "I want the humbleest colored man in North Carolina to know that the governor of this State keeps in mind the fact that he is governor of all of the people of the State of every color, every age and race, of every human being," he said. "North Carolina has splendidly progressed and your labor and industry have contributed mightily to this progress and development. We have made North Carolina well night if not quite the best farmer in the country and the faithful black man's toil has made this possible. Wherever manual labor has helped the State forward the race deserves the plaudits of the people of North Carolina. "For the past twenty-five years you have made splendid history. You have been doing your duty well and I congratulate you on your great behavior for some years in the industry and performing along every line." All things considered the governor says history does not record anywhere where two races have lived together in such harmony as they have in the South. He congratulated the Negroes on their record in the late war and the sulldrive submission to authority shown. "I never heard of a Bolshevik Negro in the country of the flag when you failed to count the flag when the drum tapped and go under the leadership of the white man to death if need be, and the white boys enjoyed the colored folks," he added, telling a joke which was much appreciated by his audience. PERRY W. HOWARD, Associate Attorney General, Speaks at Campaign Meeting 4 p.m. Sunday No. 6. 6th Admission Free by Tickets secured at Y. M. C. A., Dr. Watts and Dr. Ross Drug Stores, and from a Committee of Association Workers. The meeting will be held at the Attucks Theatre. SPIRIT OF CONCORD "There is a finer spirit of concord, sympathy and understanding between the white and black folks in North Carolina than ever before," the governor said, declaring that the white people are in sympathy with every effort of the Negro to develop in industrial, mechanical, educational and business lines. He rejoiced in the building of the $150,000 Negro hospital in Durham, which he said will be one of the best in the country for North Carolina. North Carolina, he said, is doing more educationally for the black man than anywhere else in the republic. "You have my sympathy and earnest prayer for your development and success in every direction a Christian and a good man ought to develop. Cultivate among your people respect for law, order and government. Every black man ought to give his highest reverence to the courts of the land and to the justice position. There is no color line in the justice courts. There is the same protection for the weakest black man as for the proudest white man, a God-like justice, seasoned with mercy." ANNUAL Y.M.C.A CAMPAIGN ON Central Y. M. C. A. Agrees 16 Give Queen St. Branch $2,500 If Colored People Raise Lice Amount During Campaign The annual campaign of the Queen Street Y. M. C. A. will begin on Tuesday, November 8th. A stimulus has been given the Board of Directors experienced by them. The white, Y. M. C. A. of District has made a most generous offer to the colored "Y" this year. They make this proposition to the colored directors, that the Central "Y" will give two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500) from their campaign receipts if the colored "Y" will raise two thousand five hundred dollars in their campaign. Or to put it another way, if the colored "Y" will give dollar for dollar up to two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500) raised by the colored "Y" in its campaign this year. This means that every dollar you give in subscription or membership fee during this campaign will be matched by another dollar by the company employees. That is when you join the "Y" or pay up your membership fee or give a subscription to the "Y" from the 8th of November to 15th, you multiply your gift by two. This is a challenge that the Negroes of Norfolk cannot afford to turn down. Whatever your grievance, criticism, or objection to the M. C. if you have the challenge as assistant and let me know the challenge that has been dung to us by the Central Association. And when we have met this challenge successfully, then we can sit down and consider our grievances, criticisms and objections, if we have any. The board of directors needs far more money than $5,000 to put across their program for the next year. This means that they must clear the state and make a forward movement in the service of the Master this coming year. Your correspondent asked the Board to submit their budget for the coming year, and this is what they handed him: Bonded debt ..... $3,355.00 Deficit ..... 3,000.00 Boy Secretary ..... 1,800.00 Campaign Expense ..... 300.00 International Committee ..... 200.00 Junitor ..... 700.00 For this campaign the plans have been worked out in every detail, but for lack of space we cannot give it here. Suffice it to say that the city has been divided into two grand divisions, East and West. Division No. 1 comprises all of the city east of Church street, and is headed by Rev. D. F. White. Division No. 2 comprises all the city west of Church street, and is headed by Rev. R. H. Bowling, G. Jacex, G. General Chief Command and the whole division. These two grand divisions are subdivided. Each division is headed by one or more members of the board of directors: Messrs. G. I. Taylor, Walter Smith, F. E. Puryear, Casper Titus, B. B. Whitechurch, C. J. Watkins, Samuel L. Tucker, W. F. Foreman, Thos. Lee, Dr. S. I. Moone Chas. F. Perry, W. B. Perkins, E. B. Tucker, and m. R. Jackson. PRICE FIVE CENTS MISS COPPAGE THRILLS BIG AUDIENCE Rendition of "The Letter of the Law" by Talented Elocutionist At High School Last Friday Was Notable Triumph The capacity audience which greeted Miss Eliza Coppage at her monologue interpretation of the Eugene Brieux play, "The Letter of the Law" was literally swept off its feet by the wonderful display of her very remarkable talent. The tense dramatic situations in the play made a heavy demand upon her and she was more than equal to the occasion. She not only felt and lived each character herself; the audience too, was made to feel all the emotions from unrestrained miath to the deepest grief. The play which was in two acts and three scenes is the story of how an old man named Goyeteche was found murdered in his bed. M. Delorme, an assistant to M. Vargret, the sympathetic attorney, had charge of the case. He thoroughly convinced that the crime was committed by an agent of Gypsies, but it is the opinion of some that he crime was committed by Etcheparne. M. Delorme finally gives up the case and M. Monzon, a young and brilliant but immoral and unscrubulous attorney of the new school, is appointed to help his effort to convict the accused and to himself the honor of "The Red Robe," the final destroys Etcheparne home, driving Yanotte, his wife, to despairation and causing her to become his murderer. When it is realized that each one of these characters was played by Miss Coppage, that she portrayed the emotion of each one so vividly that one could actually see the truth of theplicity of genius recognized. The audience was responsive to the last degree and so enscrutured did the people become, that after the final curtain each one seemed boating to leave. Mr. Kemp played a violin solo during the intermission between acts one and two, which was wonderfully fitting and appropriate to the theme of the play. Miss Bessie Burke. The Philharmonic Orchestra gave several excellent selections. Mist Copnage was graduated from the Williams School of Expression associated with the Thaca Consortium, Thaca, N. Y., last spring is to be highly congratulated on getting Nomikl an evening of genuine pleasure and an eager anticipation for more of truly artistic productions. Mayor Harper, of Lynchburg, Va., will deliver the welcome address before the sixth annual conference of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, which convenes in that city November 14th and 16th. Making scholars and students of History, theances will meet to discuss scientificly the historical development of the Negro in this country and abroad. The day sessions will be held at the Virginia Seminary and College and the evening sessions at the Court Street church. Besides Mayor Harper, who will speak at the Court Street church on Monday evening, November 11, there will be numbers of other speeches national repute. A cordial invitation will be coously extended to scholars, students, professional and business men and all others who are interested in the study of Negro life and history. LIBRARY LENDS BOOKS BY MAIL Boston, Mass. There is now established at 224 Tremont street a library known as the Universal Library. This institution will lend books in any part of the country, however remote, by mail. Such a service has been a long felt public need, and will go far to the elimination of illiteracy, and ought to be a source of the promotion of reading in general. Some living in the remote districts will now have the same opportunity of borrowing books as those residing in the larger cities. The low parcel post rates will make delivery service only privial; and there are further advantages to allow that ample travelling it is allowed to be散放, and that one may be privileged to obtain books from fifteen to twenty days, not counting the time for the delivery of books to and from the library. Little Murjie Howell, the six-year-old daughter of Lawyer and Mrs. L. A. Howell while playing with matches in the back yard of her home with several other children caught afire and ran into the street, where she was seen by two white men, collectors in Huntersville section, and they did all the themselves but swinehouses, suffering severe but hands themselves. The child was taken home where everything was done to save her, but she passed away Saturday evening, October 29th, at her home on Avenue B. The funeral took place from the residence Monday afternoon, October 31st, Rev. D. F. W. Howell, the remains were laid to rest in lavender Garden. The Miss Howell is survived by her parents and one sister, little Bernice, one four years. PRESIDENT TAKES STAND ON RACE ISSUE PRESIDENT TAKES STAND ON RACE ISSUE (Continued From Page One.) WHOLE WORLD CONFRONTS AN IDENTICAL PROBLEM "Indeed, we will be wise to recognize it as wider yet. Whoever will take the time to read and ponder Mr. Lothrop Stoddard's book on 'The Rising Tide of Color' or, say, the thoughtful review of some recent literature on this question which Mr. F. D. Lugard presented in a recent Edinburgh review, will be able to see here in the United States is only a phase of the race issue that the whole world confronts. "Surely we shall gain nothing by blinking at the facts; by refusing to give thought to them. That is not the American way of thinking. Mr. Lugard, in his recent essay, after surveying the world's problem of races, concludes thus: “Here then, is the true conception of the interrelation of color—complete uniformity in ideals, absolute equality in the paths of knowledge and culture, equal opportunity for those who strive, equal admiration for those who achieve success; mirrors social and a shared value path; each pursues his own inherited traditions, preserving his own race purity and race pride; equality in things spiritual, agreed divergence in the physical and material matter quality.” “Here, it seems to me, is suggestion of the true way out. Politically and economically, there need be no occasion for great and permanent differentiation, for limitations of the individual in both sides there shall be recognition of the absolute divergence in things social and racial. "When I suggest the possibility of economic equality between the races, I mean it in precisely the same way and to the same extent that I would mean it if I spoke of equality of economic opportunity as between members of the same race. In each case I would mean equality proportioned to the honest capacities and deserts of the individuals. SOCIAL EQUALITY IS NOT TO BE TOLERATED "Men of both races may well stand uncompromisingly against every suggestion of social equality. Indeed, it would be helpful to have the word 'quality' eliminated from this consideration; to have it accepted on both sides that this is not a question of social equality, but a question of recognition of the need to treat each incapable difference. We shall have made real progress when we develop an attitude in the public and community thought of both races which recognizes this difference. "Take the political aspect, I would say let the black man vote when he is fit to vote. "Especially would I appeal to the self-respect of the colored race. I would not allow a black man to prove itself as a distinct race, with a heredity, a set of traditions, an array of aspirations all its own. "Out of such racial ambitions and pride will come natural segregations without narrowing any rights, such as are proceeding in both rural and urban communities now in Southern States, satisfying natural inclinations and adding notably to happiness and DAL EDUCATIONAL PORTUNITY URGED the other hand, I would insist on equal educational opportunity both. This does not mean that both would become would become equally educated within a generation, but that both would have 100 generations. Even men of the same race do not recompile such an equality as that. "But there must be such education among the colored people as will enable them to develop their own leaders, capable of understanding and sympatizing with such a differentiation between the races as I have suggested, under leaders of the racial ideals of race pride, of national pride, of an honorable destiny, an important participation in the universal effort for advancement of humanity as a whole. "Racial assimilation there cannot be. Partnership of the races in developing the highest aims of all humanity there must be, if humanity may have, but everywhere, is to achieve the ends which we have set for life. I can say to you people of the South, both white and black, that the time has passed when you are entitled to assume that this problem of races owns your own problem. More and more it is becoming a problem of the North; more and more it is the problem of Africa, of South America, of the Pacific, of the South sex; of the world. It is the problem of democracy every day. We mean the things we say about democracy as the idea political state. CLASS ORGANIZATIONS ARE OPPOSED STOUTLY "The one thing we must seduously avoid is the development of group and class organization in this country. There has been a time when we heard too much about the labor vote, the business vote, the Irish vote, the Scandinavian vote, the Italian vote, and so on. "But the demagogues who would array class against class and group would probably ultimately have found little to reward their efforts because, despite the demagogues, the idea of our oneness as Americans has arisen superior to every appeal to mere class and group. "And, so, I would wish it might be in this matter of our national problem of races. I would accept that a black man cannot be a white man, and that he does not need and should not aspire to be as much like a white man as possible in order to accomplish the best that is possible for him. He should be able and should be encouraged to be the best possible black man, and not the best possible imitation of a white man." "It is a matter of the keenest national concern that the South shall not be encouraged to make its colored population a vast reservoir of ignorance and to possesses of migration into all sections. That is what has been going on in recent years at a rate so accentuated that it has caused this question of races to be, as I have already said, no longer one of a particular section. Just as do I wish the South to be really able to live, as I believe that that is bad for the South and for the rest of the country, as well, so I do not want the colored people to be entirely of one party; I wish that both the tradition of a solidly Democratic South and the tradition of a solidly Republican black race might be broken up. Neither political nationalism nor any system of rigid groupings of the people will in the long run prosper our country. USE OF NEGRO IN POLITICS DEPLORED "With such convictions one must urge the people of the South to take advantage of their superior understanding of this problem and to assume an attitude toward it that will deserve the confidence of the colored people. Likewise I plead with my own group in this program that looks to lining up the black man as a more political adjunct. Let there be an end of prejudice and of demagogy in this line. Let the South understand the menace which lies in forcing upon the black race an attitude of political solidarity. Every consideration, it seems to me, must be directed to the question of education. When I speak of education as a part of this race question, I do not want the State or the nation to attempt to educate people, whether white or black, into something they are not fitted to be. "I have no sympathy with the half-back altruism that would overstock us with doctors and lawyers, of what I have been taught, of people fit and willing to do the manual work of a workday world." "But I would like to see an education that would fit every man, not only to do his particular work as well as possible, but to rise to a higher plane if he would desire it. For that sort of education I have no fears, whether it be for a man or a man. From that sort of education I believe black men, white men, the whole nation, would draw inmeasurable benefit. READJUSTMENTS MUST BE CONFRONTED SOON "It is probable that as a matter we have come to the end of the period of very rapid increase in our population, Restricted immigration will reduce the rate of increase and force us back upon our older population to find people to do the simpler, physically harder manual tasks. This will require different readiness to be involved of such a condition the South may well recognize that North and West are likely to continue their drafts upon its colored population, and that if the South wishes to keep its fields producing and its industry still expanding, it will have to compete for the services of the colored man. If it will realize its need for him and deal quite fairly with him, the South will be able to keep him in such numbers as your activities made desirable. "It is not possible, then, that in the long era of readjustment upon which we are preparing for the mature lay aside and prepare for new activities, and in the broad, clear light of nationalism enter upon a constructive policy in dealing with these intricate issues? "Just as we shall prove ourselves capable of doing this we shall insure the industrial progress, the agricultural security, the social and political safety of our whole country, regardless of race or sections and along the lines of superior or every consideration of race or color, or section or prejudice. "Here are the reflexes of magical industrial development, here are the fruits in the making of a nation and its commitments to free productivity and trade. There is a materialism which sometimes seems sordid, but on the material foundation we have expanded in soul, and we have seen this republic the example to freedom aspiring throughout the world. We want to preserve the inheritance over which we fought because our conflict made it more precious. But we wish to go on as well as preserve. "The march of a great people is not a blind one. We can not be unmindful of human advancement. We wish to be more than space with progress—we wish our America leading and choosing safe paths. Fifty years is a narrow span. Yet the marvel of Birmingham is less than the marvel of our astounding America. And we mean to go on. If we are just and honest in administering justice, if we are alive to perils and meet them in common, then the achievement of your first half century will be magnified tenfold in the second half, and the glory of your city and your country will be reflected in the happiness of a great people, greater than we dream, and grander for understanding and the courage to be right." MOTHERS' CLUB PROGRESSING (Continued from page 1) make peace and good will in the community; to safeguard and transmit to prosperity the values of justice, freedom and democracy; to encourage and sanctify their association by their devotion to mutual helpfulness; to help make Norfolk a healthier, Thrifier and Happier City for all Mothers to live in. As a result of their spirit, they simply the spirit of Christianity or Sainthood, those who are in need, five hundred mothers have joined their ranks to fight to relieve the sufferings of mankind. All Mothers of the community are eligible to membership in this club and are given a chance to do the thing that they can do best for the sake of their mothers who are suffering with problems, and to have a good to all mothers. Never before have been so eager to get away from themselves in their eagerness to help others. They do not ask WHO you are or WHAT you have, they simply want to know if you are a mother and if you are, willing to stand back of the princess and go wherever you are needed, where you are needed to serve the community. They fully realize that every crime committed is committed by some mother's son or some mother's daughter, and that all of the sickness, suffering and unhappiness in the community is caused by some mothers' children. Therefore, it is important that in the community to get together and work together to help make the community a safe and happy place in which to live. Since their organization a little more than five months ago, they have been working hard to pay for the equipment which they have given for the Health Clinic. They have not only given equipment to the Health Clinic and pledged their support to the colored physicians conducting the Clinic. but they have reached and followed up many indigent persons in need of Clinical treatment. They have reached through their Look Out Committee, headed by Mrs. Milredr Carter many cases of destituted mothers and through their Relief Committee carried aid. Many mothers and young women have been saved through the efforts of this organization. Families even money to help tide them out and save them from disaster. They are determined to have the members of their club become the best informed women in the community on all matters of Civic Interest. Through mass meetings, health and thrift leagues they are getting, both in their work at the center and in the field, they hope to carry to the Community facts that will be startling. Through their questions to mothers as they join the club, they can find out the need of each mother. For instance the mothers are asked the following questions and the ones recorded on their membership cards. How are they question? Church? Lodge? Insurance? Are you a home owner? How many children have you? Have you any children in school? Where do they play? Work? Can you sing? Sew? Cook? Do fancy work? What do you do for recreation? You can read books, swearers show that they lack certain things are available material for those who possess certain talents to develop. The Mothers Club shows the way to effective efforts and should have the sympathy, backing and co-operation of every church, social and fractional groups. In less than a week we can teach our people how to live, our future will be dark. Our low standard of living is responsible for our high death rate. It is the duty of every individual and organization in this community to help any organization of people can be reached and helped to a better understanding of living. God wants us to live and have life in abundance. In rendering the kind of service the mothers club is rendering in the community, they are following in the footsteps of a man who went about making people healthy and strong, thrifty and happy. An appeal will soon be made to every mother in Norfolk to join this organization and help shoulder the responsibilities of the mothers of this community. There will also be an organization through the sale of tags, and entertainments. Every home in Norfolk will be visited by some member of the club. Your response to their request for members, sympathy, encouragement or financial backing will serve as a stimulant for their future work and show the community's appreciation for Norfolk. Make Norfolk a healthier, thrifter and happier City for all MOTHERS to live in. WONEN'S ARMISTICE DAY MEET (Continued From Page One.) First, to develop and equip efficient workers.

Organization will be put in the field to get the job of Lincoln's Birthday, February twelfth. The conference is called to meet on Armistice Day. The reason given is as follows: President Harding has called a Conference for the Limitation of Armament to meet in this city on Armistice Day, November eleventh. That day marks the birth of a new world. As the years go by, it will be more Care celebrated and significant. The Conference will bring to this city the President will bring to this city the distinguished group that has ever met o plan for the stability, progress and peace of the government of the world. Many people will come ere to be inspired by what will take place. When you think of the meaning of the occasion and of our contribution to the success of this decade, as I have, that we could have a longer time to call the women together to organize for advancement alone economic, social, and political lines. The meetings will be held in the W. Y. C. A., and a closing Mass Meeting in the John Wesley A. M. E. Z. Church, Sunday, November 13th, 3 p.m. Speakers have been invited.

Think of the thousand of "every day dresses" Negro women buy. We can buy from ourselves and earn money, selling to others. David S.

Anthony Acrv) Hampton, Va., the university has come for the black people of the world to play their part in helping to Christianize the 400,000 African, who are suffering and dying through ignorance and exploitation; that Africa must contribute to the spread of the work through the work of American Negroes; and some responsibility for their brothers in Africa; and that Mohammedanism can only be checked by Christianity, through the consecration of educated leaders who will make sacrifice for their fellow-men—these ides were presented at Hampton Institute by President Saline N. C., a Gold Coast native, who came to America at the age of 22 and, after 22 years of training, was eventually selected as a member of the African Education Commission, which spent 20 years to travel under the leadership of Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, educational director of the Phelps-Stokes Fund. Professor Agery, who was introduced by Principal Gregg, of Hampton, gave a wild account of his 30,000 mile journey through Sierra Leone, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Cameroon, Belgian Congo, South Africa, and East Africa. He said: "Now and again people say, Liberia has fallen," I say "Liberia has not fallen." It has not had a chance. In interior of Nigeria the crescent. The Cross seems to be getting weaker and weaker, but it is not a weaker. The question of Africa and the world is: Crescent or Cross?

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 5, 1921 PRESIDENT HARDING SCORES President Harding's discussion of the race question during his speech at the Birmingham Semi-Centennial Celebration last week was remarkable for its force and candor. It struck the country with such force that it was sometime before certain elements of the body politic had sufficiently recovered their balance to comment upon what the President said. The spectacle of a President that was thought to favor the "let-well-enough-alone" policy of the country, standing in the very heart of the South and proclaiming broader economic, political and educational opportunities for the Negro, was too rare and revolutionary to be comprehended. Yet the reaction from it was only mild. Radicals like Sonators Pat Harrison of Mississippi and Tom Watson of Georgia rushed into print with criticisms of the President's speech, but more conservative Southern members of Congress have had little to say. As a whole President Harding's utterances were received with enthusiasm in the North, East and West, and there is every reason to believe that he spoke the sentiments of thousands of white Southerners. The South as a whole is not disposed to hold any deserving member of the Negro race back politically, economically and educationally. The South as a whole, both black and white, agree as to racial separation in things purely social, and the President need not have stressed his "social equality" point, except to make himself fully understood. President Harding must be commended for the courage and frankness with which he expressed his convictions. The speech is sure to have a salutary affect upon the country at large, and upon the South particularly in the adjustment of the delicate problems of race relations. HOW SHALL WE VOTE? We have voted one-way so long that a suggestion that we divide our vote or cast it independently of party affiliations is received with emotions of surprise and incomprehension by many members of the race. That a colored person should vote any other than the Republican ticket is beyond the understanding of this group, which is large and for the present unwieldy. That we will eventually be found voting in all parties, and exercising the influence of the average American voter in all of them is a fact which the most ardent of the one-way actionaries will not deny if they are able to read the signs of the times. The idea that the Republican party stands for certain inalienable rights bestowed upon the Afro-American is purely theoretical. The Republican party has changed with the time. It will continue to change, as conditions change. The Republican party has never meant anything particularly to the Afro-American since Rutherford B. Hayes of Ohio was president. It was through the Republican party that the Afro-American received his constitutional equal social and political rights. The other day the titalary head of the Republican party in the Nation repudiated entirely the thought of social equality and advocated political equality upon a modified scale—that is, he advocated giving Afro-Americans the ballot as fast as they showed intellectual and material fitness for it. Which shows that the present Republican party is following the trend of popular opinion as it is held by a majority of Americans, rather than as enunciated by Abraham Lincoln and others of his day. Those who vote the Republican ticket are clearly within their rights, even though it will do them no special good. Those who vote the Democratic ticket at this time have nothing special to gain except the satisfaction of breaking away from a harmful tradition. We have got to start somewhere, at some time. The sooner we start to assert the quality of political discretion, the sooner will we cease to be the "known quantity" of all American racial groups. --- ASIA FOR THE ASIANS AND AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS Nothing is more pronounced in the unofficial discussion of what the Conference on Limitations of Armaments, which insects in Washington, November 12, the day of meeting having been advanced, must accomplish than the necessity for a closer union of the England-speaking Nations for their mutual protection from encroachments of the off-color races of Asia and Africa, the point being that these Nations have overlapping in larger sense of such off-color peoples, whom they rule and exploit to their advan- tage more than do the other dominant Powers in the white group. How far France and Italy will go in this program, which was outlined with brutal frankness by Lord Northcliffe, speaking to a delegation of Japanese journalists at Manilla, Philippine Islands, recently, remains to be seen. The Northcliffe program was considered and became an unwritten understanding of the British Dominion Premiers at a recent meeting in London. The English-speaking Nations have drawn the color line in their dominion and domestic policies more sharply than has the other European Powers, France being most generous in her policy. Indeed, a black and colored Frenchman is regarded in Paris and everywhere in French territory in the same way as a white Frenchman is; on that account, France has less trouble with her East and West Indian and African subjects than any other European Power. It stands to reason, it is one of the causes that have led us to favor the creation and work of the Pan-African Congress, that the color line has been sharply drawn by the British and Americans in their colonial and dominion and in their domestic policies. We must have an international tribunal of our own for the discussion of questions affecting African peoples in all lands, and to do what we can to better their conditions of whatever sort. Repatriation of part Africa may become necessary, in the progress of events, as the repatriation in part of Palestine has become necessary to the Jews; that is to say, an open door to the fatherland which will lead to an asylum from oppression in other lands for such as we mind to take advantage of it. We are not surprised at all, therefore, that announcement has been made of a movement at Tokyo, in Japan, to consolidate the people of Asia and to educate them in the doctrine of "Asia for the Asians." The Japanese are the proper people to invade such a movement. It is currently needed to protect the Asians from worse overland misrule and exploitation than they have been subjected to for centuries; Great Britain being the greatest offender, in the West Indies, in the Pacific, with special reference to Australia and New Zealand, and in the Far East, with special reference to the East Indies, and in Africa, where great Britain has many colonies in which the natives are denied all or most of the privileges of having any voice in the administration of colonial affairs. The United States is playing with fire in seeking to consolidate the English-speaking Nations against the offence rates of Asia and Africa. Time was we think, show this viewpoint to be the correct one. THE BAPTIST MISSIONARY WORK awakening in recent years among Afro-American church denominations to the importance of missionary work in foreign fields, and especially in the African field. The impression has tenuously spread abroad that our church membership in this country has a special duty in carrying the light of Gospel truth to their brethren in Africa. Most of our churches maintain missionary workers in Africa, and their work grows in importance as it is extended. This is especially true with regard to the missionary work of our Methodist and Baptist denominations. The Christian Recorder, the venerable official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, has the following appreciation of the long service and retirement from the active missionary work of Rev. L. G. Jordan. The Christian Recorder says: "On Monday night of last week, at Trinity Baptist church, Rev. W. F. Graham, pastor, the representatives of the National Baptist Convention, living in Philadelphia, gave a splendid reception for twenty-five years and a half the secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions of the Baptist Church. Rev. Jordan, at the last session of the Convention, tendered a gift to a younger man was selected to carry on the work. Dr. Jordan was made secretary eneritus and accepts duties which will not cause him to lead the strenuous life he has had to lead during the twenty-five years on the Foreign Mission Board. He made an enviable record, and brought the mission work of his church to a stage where a younger and more energetic man can now accomplish a great deal. That is interesting hundreds of independent Baptist churches in this co-operative movement. He did it well and became, perhaps, one of the greatest forces in contemporary Baptist of America. His successor is the Rev. J. E. Fast, a man, we are informed, of splendid talents and education, who has spent twelve years as a missionary on the earth, with a kinder under such a man, whom he advised and experience of his veteran predecessor, Dr. Jordan, the Baptists ought to develop a wonderful missionary spirit and, do great work for our fatherland, and give our Baptist brethren will have the prayers of every loyal African Methodist." This is a magnanimous and praiseworthy tribute to a great Baptist worker in the missionary field, and to the Baptist missionary work by the official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. All that it says of Dr. Jordan he deserves. He has done a splendid work, and he is entitled to the rest from active labor which has been given him. The great work he has accomplished will be carried forward, with his assistance and advice, by a younger man, who has personal knowledge of the African people and work, and it should grow in influence for good in the life of the African people. GETTING BACK TO SANE METHODS AND DISCUSSION Editor JOURNAL AND GUIDE. Sir:—As the campaign draws to a close there is a marked falling off in personalities among the leaders and a clear understanding of the real purposes and aims of the political movement. Virginia that has shirred the whole State as never before in its history. It turns out that, after all, there is very little difference of opinion among us. The whole trouble has grown out of a difference of means to the extent that the state should there be a division of power at this time, while others hold to the view that, inasmuch there is a real ticket of colored Republicans in the field, it should be given the support of all of us so as to dignify the protest. I cannot see how we can afford to divide our votes at this time. True, there are two parties of white voters in the field at present, but both hold the same view on the race question, either professes to believe in the political system of the Negro and each is equally proud to protest that it will have none of him. Just at the time when some of our best men were inclined to stand with the Lily White organization came Cal. Gov. Elizabeth Warren on the Negro as a man and a citizen that has found utterances from the lips of any candidate for high office in the history of the State. His appeal to the voters that could have been conceived by the smallest ward healer that ever prated before a town meeting. It would not allow Negro judges in election, forsook. The constitution directs that they shall be appointed if they represent the minority party, but what is a little thing like the Constitution when it stands in the way of keeping the Negro in power, so no Negro can swallow that medicine. And Mr. Triangle would treat the Negro fairly and justly so he says, and so he really believes. But how about his political equality? How can a Negro participate in a democratic ticket when the law of the party governing primary election forbids any Negro from participating therein? How can a Negro vote to agree to the nomination in a booth that nominates candidates? How can you repudiate a party, and yet vote for its nominee. How can a Negro be an independent, voting for men and not for their party, to his benefit? How can they plant both feet-squared on the party's record and will uphold its principles at whatever cost? It seems to this writer that much of the party is not for parties is in line with the sophistry that you can serve the devil without becoming imbued with the spirit of his satanic majesty. The Republican Party was conceived to be devoted to the doctrine of the absolute civil and political equality of all men irrespective of color or previous conditions of servitude. That is the Republican of the time nominated on Labor Day. That is the Republican of the time nominated in Virginia, and that is the Democratic party. The other thing is a monarchy. Choose yes, this day, how you will vote. Very truly yours. J. THOMAS NEWSOME Newport News, Va. "TWO COLORED WOMEN WITH THE AMERICAN EXPEDITIONARY FORCES" By Mrs. Addie W. Hunton and Miss Kuthreep Johnson The story that Mrs. Hunton and Miss Johnson tell grips one with an all-compelling admiration. From the time of their summons to their last days of service the writers carry one along with the soldier so that his life is not forgotten, the big thing about the whole story is the clear way in which the reader is shown—without bitterness, without malice—the many humiliations our soldiers have endured in varied struggles. To those who had no loved ones in France, the information is invaluable; to those who have beard from their own the story of the war, to those who have spoken word, while to those who saw active service, they find in it a living again of those valiant days.

As a rule the North has discussed the Negro problem and the South has discussed it, not have theory and practice offered to the South, a sad demet乐. Mr. Harding has carried all his convictions him into the South. He had nothing very new to lie the subject; his main contribution lies in the fact that he did not dodge it. The rue problem, says Mr. Harding very truly, is becoming more and more a problem of the Nqrth as well as the South. "More and more it is the South that is the problem of the Pacific of the South Seas, of the world." America hastened her contact with the question by importing slaves, but as the earth develops gradually into one vast community it would have found us out anyway in despite every effort toward isolation. "The World (Dem.) New York. 'PRESIDENTIAL ADVICE AND PARTY PRACTICE' If President Harding's Birmingham address, in so far as it bears upon the race question, is an expression of the best thought of his party—and it must be taken seriously. He heads—head—head the course which the Virginia wing of Republicanism has elected to pursue is in direct variance with what the party leaders, voted by Mr. Harding, pronounce best for the preservation of the public interests. Mr. Harding said yesterday: "Let the South understand the menace of the political race an attitude of political solidarity * * * Just as I do not want the South to be politically entirely of one party just as I believe it is bad for the South to be politically entirely of one country as well, so do I not want the country people to be entitlement of one party." That is well said, and it is sound political, economic and social doctrine. But presidential theory here closes the door, and the Republicans have cast the Negro bag and baggage from their ranks. He has been told that it is now a white man's party, and he has no place in the organization which since his creation has been a liberal refigure. Virginia Republicans are white, they tell him, and no black Republicans need apply. Titus by their repudiation of the black voter the Republicans force the force of the vote on the black voters, consequently some time might hold the balance of power at the polls, an evil which the President foresees and whose results cannot be foretold by those who remember the days of Reconstruction in Virginia and if it is successful even in a measure they may be rewarded to extend it to other So. N. States, a solid black party springing up in every oak, them until it covers the ice, a new So much for the fee per day of legal workings of Repulp South and in the South. If Presidio $ is sincere and sincerity 1, prudent his address the situation as it affects to develop his party's plants for conquering the South. Will he have the courage to attempt it? If he has not, then his latest admonitions will rise no higher than the endless stream of advice he has received us for a half century.-Richmond (Vn.) *Times* *Nimb* (Item.) "SOCIAL EQUALITY" In his speech at Birmingham President Harding has put forward a difficult, but perhaps not impossible solution of a question which is in itself of enormous difficulty. He has seen that a solution of the Negro question, and the anomalies to which it gives rise, can only be approached by way of the Negro himself. The existence of a "Solid South" in American politics does not induce to satisfactory state of affairs, but the Solid South cannot be broken until the condition which produces it is altered. The existence of any small and compact group which votes in accordance with sectional or economic motives instead of on a braced basis of Americanism is, as the President points out, a danger in our two-party political system. But such groups cannot be broken down as long as the particular interests which hold the group together are such as may be given political expression. The President looks to a time when the two races may live side by side, the Negro race developing its own powers to the best of its ability, showing in which equality is a possibility, and not asking for equality where there is no reason for it. If a time comes when the Negro can be relied upon to be a citizen, and job as a Negro, the white man can be a citizen and not as a white man. It rests in the hands of the Negro race to show that it can live within itself beside the white race, and is not a subject element in the population. To come to such a time also, of course, requires the co-operation of the whites. It requires that the white man furnish Negroes with the best possible education to the circumstances. It requires the abandonment of attempts to make the black man "a mere political adjunct." It requires absolute fairness on both sides of the recognition by black and white of the recognition by black situation.—Baltimore News (Dem.) It is not impeaching President Harding's sincerity to ascribe to his race formula a significance chiefly political. The President honestly intended hishirtingham speech to be in his forceful contribution to the forces musing about the South's peculiar problem. Yet when we attempt to interpret the President's program in terms of its possible application, we are brought abruptly to the realization that we are dealing with a problem of many years the intelligent opinion of the South has demanded for the Negro sincerity equal of treatment with the white race, in the matter of education and opportunity for economic advancement. It has no less unmistakably insisted on social and racial separation as it is when we have come to correlate the two races with the practical application that we have encountered our main difficulties. In a very real social sense and racial segregation carries with it an impairment of the equality of opportunity. In a very real social sense and equality of opportunity encrasses on social and racial separateness. The South's problem is one of blending these two sets of principles for the good of both races. In its practical aspects the President leaves off, where the President leaves off. The president will dwell together in peace, neither encraching upon the other, each enjoying equality of opportunity and equality of reward for achievement, but each preserving a limited Promised Land has already been shown to us by many a Moses of our own. The President's formula takes us no further than Nebo. We have been admiring the view from Nebo long time now, and it does not help much to be told to admire it some more. What we need is something better than we have already developed. In our own imperfect way we have taken stops to insure the separateness of the race and to ensure their mixing might provoke conflict. On the rightness or wrongness of what we are already doing to give the solid outlines of reality to things that are not real, the realism of the ideal, the President is silent. In leading the South into racial harmony, just as in inducing the nations of the earth into a new and joyous association, the President is still at the right and indicate the general direction, leaving to others the business of blazing the trail to Canaan. The only one respect did the President have is his general speech, leaving the general for the particular. The Negroes, he said, must stop being solidly Republican and the whites must stop being solidly Democratic. Whether the two races keep politically separate, or whether each divides its strength between the two ranking parties, is a question that has no real learing on the working out of the differences in the role of bearing chiefly political and the President's modelling with it at Birmingham can only be regarded as having a political purpose. The proposal that the South's whites and blacks split fifty-fifty between the Republicans and the Republicans in effect, make Republican rule of Washington perpetual. In seeking to give to this coal proposition the moral force of a reform essential to the solution of the Suth's most grievous problem, the President sadly underestimates the South's ability to disaffect the reform and current Republican strategy—Norfolk Virgin-Pine. HARDING'S ECONOMIC INTERPRETATION OF RACE PROBLEM What President Harding said in Alabama yesterday in his frank discussion of the race problem will be quite generally approved by all parties in all parts of the country—excepting, no doubt, in the "solid south." Old habits and old traditions are hard to break and no more words of mouth from the President, no matter how logician his argument may be, can be challenged. Traditional lines of conduct down in Dixie. The more convincing argument, the sort of logic that in time may work a lehance, if any influence Harding suggested that impeding such conduct as economic necessity. This point the President emphasized in these words: "It is probable that, as a nation, we have come to the end of the period of increase in our population. Recent legislation will be in part responsible for a shaking ratio of increase. No restricted immigration will reduce the rate of increase and force us back upon other population to find people to do the work, physically harder manual tasks. "In anticipation of such a condition the South may well recognize that North and West are likely to continue their drafts upon its colored populace and to keep its fields producing its wishes to keep its fields producing its wishes to destroy still expanding, it will have to compete for the services of the colored man. If it will realize its need for Him and deal quite fairly with him, the South will be able to keep him in such desirability as your activities make desirable and there a problem and it is pressing for settlement."—Daily News (Dem.), Springfield Mass.

Ashby In the life of come times when turn aside from of governmental nations there must it is necessary to regular routine intercourse with special matters which for convenience we call problems. Sometimes it is a single other time or other times they are many. That the present is a time of many problems this nation no same person will deny. A. B. Surely this is an age of problems. Among those which are of the greatest concern at this age, we may be seen that of the high cost of living, the Ku Klux Klan, Japanese, and many others, but the greatest of all the problems that claim the attention of this nation is that of race within its midst. It is the race within its midst that no solution will ever be a hindrance to any effort which may be made toward the solution of the others. The solution of this problem, however, is not the task of either one or the exclusion of the other, but it does the hands of the white race primarily. That is why take the initiative, they must lead the way. The task is a great one, and yet the solution would not be so difficult: white men willing to use impartial men that care. They quote from their own plaques that "Honesty is the best policy" and seem to fear that in a square deal they will job themselves. But that is just what they are doing now, and so long as they subordinate right to political expediency. For where right is not trusted, wrong inevitably rules. For more than a hundred years the Negro has been a problem in this nation, his presence here has caused dissension in church, and in State. He made contention in all political campaigns down to a country down to a county contested. What shall be done with the Negro is the one question that is ever prominent. I wonder why he is such a problem. Did providence make a difference in the race itself? Has the race itself been indifferent to nation's interests? To these questions, the answer must be No. And yet he is ever mistrusted and misunderstood. There can be no solution for this problem, so we barriers remain. The fact is that the wrong idea of the Negro, and the same is true of the Negro with regard to the white man. It does seem to me that after so long a sojourn together, we should understand each other better, and as much unity between the two groups many vainly believe, but there is much mistrust, and more prejudice. I believe that the nation wants to see the spirit of concord, tranquility, harmony, good fellowship, etc. But it maintains its present attitude to mistrust the race in its midst, to deny their rights and abridge their privileges as free citizens. Why should it be right that the Negro would do anything to maintain its own monetary. He is as anxious to use his powers for the common good of all the people as any other group within the nation, and for no less reasons, and what this country is he helped, least, to make it. And in whatever it is to be he expects to play his part. So there is no need to mistrust him. The goal of the Negro's political ambition is not office, nor is it to display himself and personal anxious about any office. Who is to be governor or president, now or earlier, either of party or person is not of as much concern to the Negro as the nation seems to be. He is not of personal anxious about any office. The goal of the Negro is to play a man's ship, and the privileges that it guarantees the opportunity to play a man's part in the race of life, are the favors that are due him, and he sees no good reason why they should be denied. The white man seems to think that that man is a slave. Well, he has a right to his thought, but he ought to think again, as souvenir of all his impartiality, on the rights of all his workers. There are two methods by which to deal with men: Conciliatory and Unconciliatory. The principle applies to men in some of the relations of life, the true and consequently the safety of all government? Political as well as social, and all positions for that matter are graduated. The strong man will of necessity, sooner or later, to do the front and clim the influence which the weak man has to overcome and the weak man will be left to the point which exhausts his strength. Democracy does not equalize men. Universal suffrage does not mean universal equality. A man is just so equal to the man who is lifted by the rounds of moral principles, principles will be tested by the attitude he assumes toward the man that is down. His rank cannot be used with fairness to tyrannize another; many is necessarily associated with little or no qualities; how many gives qualities the tyrant may give is little somewhere, for the nature of tyranny, whether it be in an individual or a nation, is low. If the race problem in this nation is to be solved, there must be a policy of conciliation. That would entail with headship, fairness, justice, etc., but would serve to cure all false relations among men. THE GOSPEL OF REGONCILIATION. That in everything. The race problem will not be solved by any pression or evasion. Abstract theories will only serve to widen the gulf that keeps us apart. But the one thing that cannot fail, is to do unto others as we would that they do unto us. To joy the spirit of harmony, peace, and good will, this rule must be applied in the spirit of him who gave it. The Negro race does not expect equal consideration in the dividends of the nation's interests, for the reason that there is a difference in the social strength, and therefore has not, in equal contributions to the nation's success, to expect a fair consideration. The race is not asking the privilege to represent the white race, but it is asking for a chance to represent it- NOVEMBER 5, 1921 USE SLOAN'S TO WARD OFF PAIN USE SLOAN'S TO WARD OFF PAIN TITTLE aches grow into big pains unless warded off by an application of Sloan's.

Sloan's Liniment Pain's enemy self, and to that end it is striving to show itself approved, by developing its moral, mental and spiritual powers. The Negro race is not pleading for consideration at the bar of justice in order to be outfair play according to the truth innocence. In the ranks of the race there are criminals as there are in other races, and they are as objectionable to our neighbors. We know they are our neighbors way to deal with them and that is by the process of the law, and its majesty are ready, and willing to uphold we are ready, and willing to overpower. "Come and let us reason together. More less do about our petty crimes, and more do gallant deeds. For there is much bad in the best of us, and much good in the best of us, but We all will be better when we learn how to spell HUMANITY and live friendly to Dr. J. Kwegyir Aggrey New Type of Negro Dr. J. Kweggie Aggrey, Professor of Economics and Sociology at Livingston College, Salisbury, N. C., will address the National Conference of schools, Episcopal Church, meeting in Detroit Wednesday morning, November 16th, according information reaching here today. Dr. Aggrey will speak on missionary work in Africa. He is himself a native of the Gold Coast, West Africa, and early education in a mission school there. America in 1808 seeking higher education. He attended Livingston College, and later took his graduate training at Columbia University. Dr. Aggrey was a member of the Africa Mission, the mission of the Phelps Stokes Foundation, and the Foreign Missions Conference. Dr. Aggrey created a profound impression upon the people of England during his stay there, and was showcased many notable exhibitions to speak before many notable galleries. That was hailed as a true representative of the Negro race in its finest development, displaying at once a Christian of character, a kindly attitude toward the African, a training and power which gives him free scope for his unusual natural abilities. Basil Mathews, the famous editor interviewed Dr. Aggrey and the author of the New Horizons, an article on the Negro soon to be published in this country in the Christian Advocates of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Mr. Mathews describes Dr. Aggrey as a permanent and powerful type" that those preaching race antagonism as a solution of the race problem. In this article Mr. Mathews gives impressions of the Negro. The universities as besides them typified in the normal physique, with the glorious radiant smile and infectious jolly laugh that are one of the greatest images of the Negro. Dr. Kweygri Aggrey's kind heart and spirit, seems to me to incarnate what is most hopeful for the future. "He is slight in build, natural and unaffected in manner, with not a particle of bounce or personal ambition in his equipment. Dr. Agrey has the sincerest, most transparent purity, the most irresistible, the most shining through his work, and no illusion, mediate advantage will draw him away. Dr. Agrey is simple, too, in that he has the infectious gaiety of a lauter thing, irresistible, riotous laughter thing, you nong like a mountain torrent. You same time subtle and complex. Born of more than princely Fanti blood at Anamabu, on the African Gold Coast, trained in the great old Capo Coast of more than ancient Methodists, a graduate of more than American university, a Doctor of Medicine professor, Dr. Agrey has an equipment of historical and religious knowledge, psychological training, and personal discipline of brain that give him a winning and convincing humor and logic, pathos and grim humor and great-hearted, transparent sincerity make him very powerful. He went to the Student Conference at Swanwick, England, this year to speak one, and convincing they made him make sixteen more speechy wreck, and now student movements in every university in Britain are clamoring for him to return from America for a tour of British student life." Dr. Aggrieve preaches racial co-operation in every walk of life "We should stand ourselves at all he says, according ourselves to "with the wrong, according to the wrong, sufferers. We must recognize the iniquities, but pursue not resolution, but co-operation. All the way through my tour of Africa, when I spoke one hour between times to Boar and British and then for as much as two hours with people sessions and to thousand of people, I found the principle of co-operation made active and vigorous appeal. The doctrine of love and work utilizes a triumphant appeal when bitter prejudices have been cleared away. --- "I believe. Dr. Aggrieve told Mrs. Mathews with enthusiasm, "that the Negro has a great gift to make to the world—the gift of the idea of meeting injustice and betrayance and oppression by sunny, lighthearted and cooperative love and work." I believe he is going to teach that to Asia and the white folk."

Here the young man can start out with the high advantage of very opportunity and is not afraid to est ambitions, and if he takes work he stands a good chance of winning. But how much easier it is if the young man gets the benefit of a little boost when he starts out. A good education and a nest egg of his own may save him from years of hard work and discouragement. Are you planning for your boy's future? Will you be able to give him the fundamental training for the kind of work he wants and then lend him a little financial assistance? Right now is the time to start that fund. Lay by a little every week, keep up the habit for a few years and the first thing you know you'll have a "sum" fund that will give him a good start, and it will also get him into the HABIT of saving. This word "HABIT" suggests a world of ideas, for it reaches much deeper into our being than many peo- sition, and it is the deepest law of nature. We first make our habits and then our habits and then our act, and you reap a habit, sow a habit and you reap a character, sow a character and you reap a destiny. It's essentially as easy to form one habit as another—as easy to be habit- tually prudent and saving as habit- tually travagant. Training to save a reasonable portion of your income regularly and such saving will soon become well nigh automatic as the heart action itself. Of course, nobody can confer the savings habit upon us. We have to do the work ourselves. But effort always brings results, and the results of the saving habit are very much worth it. With yesterday gone forever and to- morrow yet to come, when must our time for action come? Today, of course—it's all the time we have.

Clair, Bishop to Liberia for the Methodist Episcopal Church, one of the two first Negro bishops elected by that denomination at the General Conference at Dec Moines, In., May, 1920, has just completed a tour of the mission stations under his appointment consequent L. Liberia, according to information reaching this country today. Bishop Clair was formerly pastor of the Ashbury Methodist Episcopal church of Washington, D. C., which he built up into one of the strongest Negro churches of any denomination, during his term of service there. At the time of his election to the Episcopacy, he was District Superintendent in Washington. In Liberia Bishop Chair has met with the most cordial welcome from Government officials, mission workers and the native black folk of the bush. He is an unusually fine specimen of Negro manhood, large and strong of character, clean-eat features and kindly smile. He jumps in the him the type of man to take their race. The Bishop travelled through primeval jungle, through country infested with wild animals, and often under the most trying hardships. At times the party were transported on river steamers, at others on hammocks home by a native man of the jungle, and at times they trekked on foot for miles into the night before reaching their destination. At the towns and native villages along his line of march, Bishop Clair was met by crowds of enthusiastic natives who came out several miles to meet and welcome the Afro-American bishop who had come to work for their advancement. He was received and honored by many local and tribal chiefs, who all of whom beseech him to send a Christian preacher and teacher to live and work in their midst. These people being to Bishop Clair, are intently desirious of having their children taught the rudiments of education and the Christian religion. He found they knew a great deal of American and of their race brethren here, and that they are anxious to follow in the same footsteps. Delegations of chiefs and sub-chiefs from tribes further in the depths of the jungle visited him at a number of points to request that they send missionaries to them, their children the religion and civilization. And some of these delegations came from far distant regions, and trekked for days to meet the American Negro bishop. Bishop Clair reported excellent progress and high devotion displayed by the corps of Negro and white missionaries under his supervision.

The Exaparte Council met on June 20, 1821, heard the case of aggrieved members, examined witness and found charges against pastor, Key, Gholston dearly proven and substantiated. We find the Pastor Gholston guilty of every charge preferred against him. We condemned his conduct and leadership. We, the Council, recommend the withdrawal of the hand of fellowship from Rev.

Price 255 Phillips BLACK & WHITE SOAP Made in England MILK & CHEESE BLACK & WHITE SOAP COLORED AND WHITE FARMERS COOPERATE TO IMPROVE TOBACCO PRICES The Attuck's Theatre As The Central Place of Theatrical Enjoyment No Color Line Drawn in Framing Contract. Says "Inter- State Tobacco Grower," White Publication AIM IS PROGRESS AND PROSPERITY Keysville, Va.—According to the folloowing interesting and informing article which appeared in the Inter-State Tobacco Grower, white publication of this city, white and colored farmers are barring color prejudice in one great effort of co-operation through which they hope to turn poverty into prosperity for the tobacco growers of the State, both white and colored: "You have read of the great victory of Virginia growers in gaining a 50 per cent sign-up, and of our determination to press on until we gain three-fourths of all the growers in the State. "The colored farmers in Virginia have helped to win a victory that promises relief for all of us that raise tobacco. "Never before have we addressed a special plea to all our colored members, because as Dr. Robert Moton has so wisely said, 'Nature knows no color line and cares not whether the hand that plants the cotton and the corn be black or white', and because in this association also of thousands of tobacco farmers in Virginia, organized in deadly earnest to effect the bottomment of all—the contract knows no color line. "Hundreds of colored farmers have helped to win as they will surely reap, the benefits of this great revolution which is sweeping through our State. "Whether the grower who signs our contract raises a hundred or a hundred thousand pounds, whether he be rich or poor, whether he be black or white, is matters not—he gets fair play in this association and the same price for his tobacco by its type and grade as every other grower. "Our letters, our papers and our thanks have gone to colored members and to white alike. Our aid will always go to both." "There are thousands of colored farmers who should sign this contract, and have feared to do so because some ugly rumors have been spread by those who would exploit them, or divert them from their progress toward prosperity. "The small tobacco grower, whether he be black or white, will be protected under the co-operative plan. He will not see his influential neighbors sell tobacco of a grade and type exactly like his own for almost twice the price he can get on speculative markets as they are today. "Instead of rushing his tobacco to a glutted market, where the price is driven lower than the cost of actual production by speculative buyers and panic stricken farmers, the co-operative grower will be able to place his product with his own association, where it will be marketed by experts when and where it brings the largest price. "Small progress wil the made in gaining better homes, schools and churches for the colored farmer in tobacco growing counties of our State (11) Chase, M Tucker) The coloured people of Norfolk rank along with those of such cities as Washington, Philadelphia, Detroit, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and other cities, in the presence of a theatre operated exclusively by and for Norcross. Our geographical location makes it unnecessary to say that, previous to the construction of the Attucke theatre, we had to seek our moving picture and vaudeville enjoyment—excluding the houses which have reservations for us—in places where the construction, equipment and conventions of such theaters are incompatible with the Attucke. And then, the quality of the productions, particularly vaudeville, had to be always mind With the completion of the Attacks theatre in 1919, the colored people of Norfolk and vicinity were given a theatre with every modern convenience and equipment, thus making it possible for us to witness a good show in an exclusively owned Negro theatre with the privilege of leaves and mezzanines at our command. The lightheart effect, the leathing and unnerving systems, combined with the unpleasantness, theatre all to go to make the Attacks stand out. And in a playhouse in every respect. And show with features of the theatre must be included the courtesy of a person whose duty is to accommodate candle serve the patrons. The silent and the spoken drama, vanville, musical comedies and miscellaneous constitute the attraction of the theaters. But, in the theatrical business, as well as in any business with large latitudes of patronage, there is a special interest which the public does not know of simply because it is another. The limitation under which the Attucks has had to serve the public has been potent to the extent that it has been incomprehable. After the erection of the Attucks, certain playhouses here refused to "run behind" and through this peculiarly poulented condition the theater was prevented the first time of pictures, and any desire to use them—simply because these would not "run behind" the Attucks. In other words, putting the matter plainly and evidently, if the Attucks carried a picture first, it was "dead" as far as other theaters were concerned, after the run. The Attucks had been BEHIND EVERY OTHER THEATRE, as far as pictures were concerned. The reason is vivid and glaringly comprehensible. But, fortunately, the services of a man were secured whose connections with the theatrical business of Washington not only wiped out the past condition, but ensures the Attucks customer pictures hereof denied. Mr. Rufus G. Byars, who for the past eight years has been identified with the theatrical business of Washington, G. C., with "two houses now ready to spread the name at the cost of a half million dollars," one of 2,000 people—the finest in the United States—our people—is now the present manager of the Attucks Theatre. Mr. Byars is thoroughly conventant with the intricate interlings of the theatrical game, and is able, through his unique position, to give his local customers attractions independent of any "syndicate entailment." Still fortunate for the Attucks from Mr. Byars, he can practically all his own and Norfolkians get a same up-to-date attractions which play the Attucks audiences. Recent shows at the Attucks afforded an evening of real enjoyment without any lingering thoughts of indecency and so long as sixty out of every hundred growers, whether white or black, are burdened with crop mortgages, and carry debts from year to year. "We make a special plea to colored members at this time to win another signer in the great campaign which means prosperity to all." Senator Arthur Capper, of Kansas, in a letter to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has promised his support of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. The Association also announced that its secretary, James Weldon Johnson, had been in Washington for three days conferring with the leaders of both houses of Congress, and that the outlook for the passage of the Dyer Bill was highly encouraging. Leading Chicago Clubs Entertain Urban League Executives On Monday night of last week following the conclusion of the Urban League Annual Conference in Chicago a testimonial dinner was given at the City Club in honor of L. Hollingsworth Wood, President of the National Urban League; Eugene Kinkcle Jones, Executive Secretary; and Charles S. Johnson, Director of the Department of Research and Investigation as representatives of the National Urban League. This dinner was given under the auspices of the Men's City Club, the Woman's City Club, the Women's Club and Federation of Churches, all of the city of Chicago. More than 200 guests were present and were among the leading citizens of the Middle West, some of whom being national in character. Mr. and Mrs. Julius Rosenwald had fifty personal guests, among them Miss Jane Adams. Miss Mary McDewell, Head Worker of the University Settlement, arranged for the dinner, and Mrs. Joseph I. Bowne, President of the "Woman's City Club Bulletin," was Toastmaster.

Theatre As al Place of al Enjoyment obscenity which some theatres seem to feature. It makes co-operative patronage to bring these attractions to the theatre, and in this connection a word must be said. Now that you have the Attucks a modern theatre in every way and are assured of the best run of pictures and shows, the intermission arises to how you will patronize it. Will you continue to patronize the playhouses which can function independently of your patronage? Or, will you continue to content yourself for enjoyment in other houses irrespective of the pictures and shows? What thing about the theatre or the production offered you do not like, write Messrs. Bypa or Pierce. Both these gentlemen will give your communication courteous attention. To put the matter bluntly, some of us colored people rather make the Jew, the Chinese, the dames and the white man rich rather than do our own racial enterprises, yet you will see where we are welcomed by our own people. Popular Negro civilization? This is not only true in the theatrical game, but in other businesses and the professions; our course we do not advocate non-attendance of other theatres. Surely not. But now that you have a colored theatre and your own theatrical town, you should be doing theatrical first visiting your theatre before going to other places which serve you only from special entrances after, of course, the auditoria as a section of a flight of stars. Football & Athletics What will be of unusual interest to football fans here and in Newport News will be the game to be staged Monday at League Park between the Norfolk Athletic Club and Newport News industrial "Y".

HOUSANDS EXPECTED TO SEE UNION-LINCOLN AND UNION-HAMPTON GAMES Union University is busy making preparations to entertain the thousands of spectators who are expecting to see the biggest games of the season in Redmond against Lincoln on Nov. 12, and Hampton on Thanksgiving day. The games of fans are expecting to see the equally matched teams in action together on November 12th, in order to determine the winner for the Thanksgiving Day game. Union's men are in fine trim and the optimists have already predicted that she will be second to none this year for the intercollegiate association championship. Coach Martin is working diligently to win the night and in the early hours of the morning, Gregory has never been in better condition during his career and promises to run through Lincoln and Hampton lines as never before. A. Jackson promises to be one of the best quarterbacks in th association. He regularly pants sixty and seventy yards with ease and has keen generalship of the team is surpassed with the skill of the line and expects to give the opposing guard a grand play. At the Thanksgiving Day game against Hampton Union is expecting to have in attendance the biggest crowd that has ever witnessed a ball game in the city of Richmond. Hundreds of Hampton routers are expected to accompany their team from Tidewater. Arrangements are being made to have special trains running between Norfolk and Richmond to accommodate the Thanksgiving event. Union's alumni are also expected to come from Tidewater to neutralize the force of Hampton routers. The slogan of every Union man is, "Best Lincoln and Hampton." Hampton has already played three games: St Paul 7. Union 51 Va. Theol. Sem. & Col. 0. Union 13 Morgan College 0. Union 83 These teams have given the Red and Steel men a good workout in preparing for the two big games. UNION SWAMPS MORGAN COLLEGE; SCORE 85-0 Union University defeated Morgan College of Baltimore at Richmond last Saturday by a score of 56 to 6. The visitors failed to make a single first down during the entire contact. At no time during the game waveness's goal threatened. Union displayed manicible ball power, sweeping the cobs and able to hit the ball through the net at 15 and 20 yds each down. The visitors were completely outclassed in every department of the game but displayed a gameness that would be credible to any school. Many Abu-Sabra students were sent in but the ease with which they fitted in the various positions showed that students reserve power equaled that of foes. Practically the whole team deserves individual mentioning as did Capt. Fletcher and Canada, of Morgan, but as a unit Union displayed its best team work of the year.

"This field is going to be a blessing," said Doctor Gregg, "not only to our school as regards its athletics, the outward and visible side, but it is going to be an asset and an advantage to the spiritual training of the school, by reason of the promotion of self-creation and co-operation. "I feel deeply grateful to Mr. Charles H. Williams for the long chain of influences, so to speak, which he has set in motion and which he has guided that have resulted in the gift of this field. It is deeply touching to think that our graduates should be so quick to respond to the invitation which he has given them within the past few months to contribute to the expense of making this field. I have not the least doubt that all the money that is needed will be forthcoming and that the money that is necessary to maintain the field in proper condition will be easily secured. I congratulate the graduates upon what they have done already and what they are going to do with the help of us all, to make Hampton Institute just the very best school to be found anywhere." FORWARD MOVEMENT AT HAMPTON Fred. D. Wheelock, of Hampton, Va., 88, chairman of the Alumni Association executive committee, acted as master of ceremonies. "Today we are starting a movement that will add to the physical development of young men," he said. "The whole world is taking to the idea of physical education, which offers the following: First, for the nation, increased productive power and a lower death rate, physical fitness for defense in an emergency, reduction of juvenile delinquency and lawlessness, and promotion of cooperation and sanity; second, for the individual, good health, mental alertness, perseverance, endurance, self-control, unselfishness, and co-operation.
