CONGRESSMAN MADDEN FOR RE-ELECTION Possibility Remote Of Electing Colored Aspirant For Seat In House Of Representatives In Washington MANY POLITICAL MEETINGS HELD (Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill.-It is not probable that Chicago will send a colored Congressman to Washington in the near future. A clever coup by the local powers that be and Congressman Madden is thought to have upset any idea of that sort which may have been in the minds of local aspirants. Public men, both colored and white in touch with the trend of political that throughout the country have been watching the possibility of electing a colored representative both here and in the Harlem district of New York. The complete racial control of the famous 2nd ward in Chicago with a balance of power in the third has made Chicago seem the likely starting point for an effort of this sort. At the last election here was a colored candidate, and the Special have been anxious to shy their hats in the ring for the coming campaign, although Dr. Geo. C. Hall is the only one whose name has been spoken above a whisper in the effort to succeed Representative Madden, who represents the first district and who is one of the most influential House members, being chairman of the powerful appropriations committee. Last Sunday Congressman Madlen flanked by Alderman Louis B. Anderson, Committeeman Edward H. Wright and Oscar DePriest, who is managing his campaign for re-election, met third wards in a deluge of glory and oratory. Ten meetings had been arranged for the Congressman, at various churches, at an N. A. A. C. P. reception, Republican headquarters; climbing at a crowded reception in the lobby; priced at 9:30 at night, Mr. Madlen spoke in each instance on the Dyer Bill in the passing through the House, which he had played a conspicuous part, side-tracking important appropriation measures that it might have given to the other leaders for the bill had watched each Congressman and knew those which were weak and how he whispered words of comfort to those representatives who were doubtful and sat at their side when time for voting came, with the result that each of them was whispered to his whispering, voted in the affirmative. He warned that the passage of the bill thru the Senate was fraught with danger because it had no champions there, and particularly suggested that those senators who did not vote for the cause of justice should be made to explain the reason why. At the end of the speech he declares that "No other people in the world have continued their loyalty in the face of such discrimination as you have had to contend with. Your boys in the late war were the only boys of any race that asked no special favors as soliders. They are entitled to every consideration. The nation cannot expect continued loyalty from them but an ignored and subjected to abuse. This must be a single nation under a single flag with every man a citizen—a nation of laws, not men—and every opportunity afforded one must be afforded all. There must be no segregation among citizens." Applause greeted the assertion by Hon. Oscar DePriest that the voters who had an ignored and subjected experience in Washington for the glory of an individual, and that Mr. Madden was worthy of the presidency. The general opinion expressed after the meeting was over seemed to be that Mr. Madden was certain of his return to the lower house and that ambitious senators his flogs would be including Mr. Madden's local supporters express the opinion that a strong white representation can do the race more good than a colored one.

Va., was confirmed Wednesday as Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia.

AFRO-AMERICAN BANK TO OPEN FOR BUSINESS,SOON We, the officers of the Afro-American Bank desire to make announcement to the public in regard to the opening of our Bank which question has been asked us so often, seeing we have finished the building and have equipped it with all modern equipment having the fixtures put in by the American Furniture and Fixtures Co., of Richmond, Virginia. All stationery, forms, etc., for opening have been secured. Most everything is in complete readiness. Messrs. Smith and Swope, our authorized agents have sold over the minimum capital, but in our judgment we have decided not to open until the entire Fifty Thousand ($50,000) has been sold. But, from the rapid sales of our stock we feel sure it will not be long before we are ready for business. This is a small amount for the colored people of Roanoke and adjoining counties to subscribe for such a worthy cause. We wish to further state that it is an impossibility to state the exact date of opening, owing to the weather conditions which are now prevailing at this time of the year, and our agents are unable to get around as they wish to do. They have done splendid work and are keeping it up, let our people as a whole cooperate with them, and in a few days the Bank will be open.

The late Ella Whee up in the popular sentiment, "Laugh you, weep and you weep alone." when the storms of life roar, the advers shake him in the confidence he But there is lots of sustaining tha- salation Army folks worth while tha- fuse to regard themselves out. The farmers of the country are raising a great stir in politics at this time, making demands for Governmental protection and assistance in ways not dreamed of in other days, and many of their demands are being conceded by the Government, the extension work of the Department of Agriculture now embracing among the largest and most important activities engaged in by the Government. According to a report of the Fourteenth (1920) Census recently issued, of the 6,448,366 farmers in the United States in 1920, 5,498,359 were white and 950,007 were colored, while in 1910 out of a total of 6,361,502 farmers 5,440,619 were white and 920,883 were colored. White farmers thus represented 85.3 percent of all farmers in 1920, as compared with 85.5 per cent, or practically the same proportion, in 1910. Between 1910 and 1920 the number of white farmers increased 57,740, or 1.1 percent, and the number of colored formers, 29,124, or 3.2 percent. The 950,-007 colored farmers in 1920 comprised 926,257 Negroes, 16,213 Indians, 6,899 Japanese and 638 Chinese. The corresponding figures for 1910 were 893, 370 Negroes, 24,251 Indians, 4,502 Japanese and 760 Chinese. Another census bulletin shows that in Virginia we have 47,590 Negro farms, owned by 30,908 persons, comprising 2,257,953 acres, valued at $100,839,541. That is a good showing for the race in Virginia, with a total acreage for the race in the whole country of 41,432,182, valued at $2,257,645,325. If we have accumulated so much of farm acreage and values in fifty years, starting almost empty handed fifty years ago, what should be our holdings in 1972, fifty years from now? And we shall not have so many obstacles to contend with in the coming fifty years as we have had in the past fifty. We are all gratified at the scope and accuracy of the work of compiling race statistics for the census bureau which has for some years been assigned to Mr. Charles E. Hall, of Illinois and Mr. Robert Pelham, Jr., of Michigan, two accomplished men of the race. "A MAN MAY BE DOWN BUT NEVER OUT" The Salvation Army people, who go about doing good, in trying to let a ray of sunshine into the darkness of the lives of the unfortunate, have a saying, intended to inspire with hope those who have no hope, that, "A man may be down but never out." That is to say, however low down in his fortunes a man may be there is always a chance of his getting on his feet and being able to look the hard world, which has no sympathy with the unfortunate, in the face. The motto carries simply the inspiration of hope, but that inspiration may lead to the substantial things which make life worth living and without which life is little worth. If a man be down and imagines that he cannot get up, however he may be encouraged to hope, that is all there is to it; but if he imagines that he is down but not out, and puts his wits to working to get up, he will in all probability get up and go on and come perhaps, to a time when he will forget that he was ever down. That is the inspiration which hope lends to every creature and which helps such creature to arise again however desperate its fortunes may appear to be. And people are disposed to help a man on his feet, who shows a disposition to help himself. The late Ella Wheeler Wilcox summed it all up in the popular sentiment, "Laugh and the world laughs with you, weep and you weep alone." Has the reader ever tried it, when the storms of life roar, the lightnings flash and the thunders shake him in the confidence he has in himself? Perhaps not. But there is lots of sustaining truth in the saying of the Salvation Army folks worth while to those who are down but refuse to regard themselves out. THE SOLDIER BONUS GRAB administration of President Harding had unpleasant position by the insinon Legion that the Congress vote for cash bonus, variously estimated but 1000,000. The American Legion claim not as a charity, but which is a cler Government owes the former soldier for their patriotism. A majority of them the effort to put a money price o The Administration of President Harding has been placed in a very decidedly unpleasant position by the insistent demands of the American Legion that the Congress vote former World War soldiers a cash bonus, variously estimated but approximated at some $5,000,000,000. The American Legion claims the bonus as a right and not as a charity, but which is a charity and not a right. The Government owes the former soldiers nothing but gratitude for their patriotism. A majority of the people do not look kindly on the effort to put a money price on patriotism. It is the duty of the Government to care for the dead soldier's widows and dependents and for disabled soldiers. That is the extent of its obligation. Secretary Mellon of the Treasury Department has opposed the cash bonus from the start. He says there is nothing to further tax to raise it and that a bond issue of $5,000,000,000 would demoralize the finances of the Treasury. So it would. All sorts of schemes have been suggested, but a sales tax has been advised by the President as the only available thing in sight. This tax would hit hard the average consumer of all of the essentials of living. It is being antagonized from all sorts of directions, and will return to plague those who, to please the soldier vote, dare to authorize it. When the American Legion puts a cash value on its patriotism it does just what the legionaries did in the decline and fall of the Roman Empire, and whose greed hastened that decline and fall. WOMEN OF SOUTH CAROLINA ARE OPPOSED TOLYNCHING It seems rather outrageous to have "a national smile week" in a month with only twenty-eight days. A hint to the wise is no longer sufficient evidence that the nome brew is a safe stimulant. "Some married men are most attracted by the other woman." Says the Planet—Where to Alexander? The people on Easy Street are known by the company they keep. WOMEN OF SOUT ARE OPPOSED We have published recently in the JOURNAL AND GUIDE the declarations of the white women of Georgia. We are glad to be able to present this week, a statement from the Women's Branch of the Inter-Racial Commission of South Carolina, which is composed of leading white women of the commonwealth. The statement follows: "Realizing that women have a great and increasing responsibility and influence in shaping the moral issues of our national life. We, the women members of the South Carolina Committee on Inter-Racial Relations, record our acceptance of this responsibility, with the accompanying opportunities and privileges for service. We recognize that the question of the right relations between races is the greatest problem of the age, and that the whole world is grappling with these issues and their solution. With nine and a half million Negroes in our midst, we, as white women of the South, are deeply aroused to a sense of our special responsibility toward the Negro race, and to the part that race must take in any successful effort to adjust the present unhappy conditions, and we earnestly purpose to co-operate in the bringing about of a Christian settlement of the problems that overshadow the homes of both races. Therefore, we wish, to call attention to certain conditions' which affect the colored race in its relation to white people, and which, if corrected, will go far toward decreasing friction and removing misunderstanding, distrust and suspicion. Such' result can' be achieved only when the moral issues involved are squarely faced. We therefore declare it to be our conviction that the following outstanding ovils in our national life today should be speedily remedied. Believing that the double standard of morals, in regard to races as well as sex, is a quicksand which threatens to undermine our civilization, we appeal for the creation of a public sentiment which will no longer tolerate this condition, but which will demand protection for all manhood. There is no crime more dangerous There is no crime more dangerous than that which strikes at the root of The Stevedore. (By James M. Harrison) Such little praise they received during the war, nd so much real service they rendered that I am inspired to write these words in their behalf, realizing that America could not have been efficient as she was, without the neglected and unfortunate Stevedores. I am only an ignorant stevedore, My haunts are ships along the shore, Far from the ocean's solemn moans—Near where the hawser tautly groans, My hands are hard, but never sore. When men were called from every place, I answered, "here," my task to face. While others cheered and sailed away, I with my kind, I had to stay—That they should get, their needs in haste. Thru wintor's cold and summer's heat With steady hands and unfaltering feet. Ice, With dripping cloths stripped to hips, We ted the restless, hungry-ships- That America should not taste defeat. We sang and toiled with all our night No day too hot nor too long the night. We wonder now what you could have done And how many battles you'd have won, Unless we sent to you things to fight? Scorn not now our humble regiment For some of us stayed while others went. For we did our "bit" and stood the test. Although no medals bodeck our breasts Some day you'll tell what Labor meant! HAITIAN PROTESTS New York City—Pierre Hudcourt, who was Haiti's delegate to the second Hague conference here on his way to Washington to protest against American occupation of his country, issued a statement today attacking the Government's motives. consider an odious hypocrisy the present of humanity and interest in the Haitian people involved in the Unit d Staees Government in perpetrating upon Haiti a reign of terror and extortion continued from 1915" he declared. Middle school, high school in Your town, the latest been, education and supported ably on the ability that it is to smoke than than before. In reply to the question—"When has milk too much water in it?"—we would say always. Getting all, you, want in life is easy when you learn how to get along without the things you can't get. The best evidence of approaching spring is, some women are dyeing their hair, to match last summer's hema hats. 10,000 professional criminals in Chicago. Sounds like, an infringement on the rights of professionalism. WITH CAROLINA DID TO LYNCHING constituted authority, breaks all restraints of civilization and substitutes mob violence and masked irresponsibility for established justice. There is no greater fallacy than that which holds up the shield of Southern womahood in defense of the crime of lynching and burning of human beings, claiming that such acts are the outcome of Southern chivalry. Therefore, we utterly repudiate such sentiments and condemn such practices and recommend that all people give themselves to a definite study of these vital matters relating to justice and righteousness, and the press, pulpit, platform and school, as well as the potent influence of the home be used unparallely to lead public opinion to insure justice, and compel the protection and purity of both races. We further, recommend that this group of women members of the South Carolina State Inter-Racial Committee form sub-committees on the Negro church, school and home, and seek to arrive at a more accurate knowledge of their needs that we may better understand our responsibility, the one to the other." Also a fact is more clearly established by history than that hatred and force, only complicate race relations. The alternative to this is counsel and c-cooperation among men of character and good will, and, above all, of intelligent and comprehensive knowledge of the racial problem. The number of those who possess specific knowledge upon which to base intelligent thinking and ultimately, wise action is still too small. There is great need, therefore, that facts now available concerning the advancement of the Negro race in education, in professional accomplishment, in economic independence and in character, be studied by thoughtful students in our colleges. Such facts as are definitely established could well be made, as has already been done in some institutions, the basis of instruction in race conditions and relations as a part of a regular course in social science. This body of information would undoubtedly allay race antagonism and would serve as a foundation for tolerant attitude and intelligent action in every direction of inter-racial co-operation. Book Chat BY MARY WHITE OVINGTON FINDING A WAY OUT," An autobiography by Robert Russa Moton, published by Doubleday, Page and Company. Price $2.50, postage ten sents extra. The writing of autobiographies by principals of colored schools has become a habit. It was started by Booker T. Washington in "Up From Slavey," and so brilliant a biography as that with its world wide appeal made it difficult for Edwards, Holzclaw and others to follow after him. Dr. Moton's biography suffers in the same way, especially as he trod in Washington's footsteps. Moreover, his life lacks incident. The most dramatic part of his autobiography is before the hero is born. The tale of his forbear, his great great great grandfather, a chief caught and carried away in a slave ship, the wonderful physical power of other of his grand parents, his paternal grandmother living to be 108, the dramatic story of his father's fight with an overseer, these make a vivid beginning to the autobiography. Those of us who remember Major Moton in his uniform at Hampton wonder why he lacked so in personal vanity as not to have his photograph as a frontpiece, so much does he look like the descendant of a chaffain. But the book is without illustration and Robert Russia enters upon the stage with little incident. A boyhood at the "great house," school teaching, a short dabble in politics, then Hampton and Tinkeges. A pleasant story, well told with that most blessed gift reserved for man humor. There is one delightful anecdote that I cannot refrain from repeating. Before graduating, from Hampton, Moton turned his hand, to school teaching, and was appointed principal of a Virginia school, with 160 pupils. A REDUCTION!

He and Mobin had many heated arguments, Moton demanding that matters of discipline, be left to him, and Hembricks declaring that he would take the matter to the school board. Fearing this move, Moton talked the whole thing over with his landlady's husband, a man who could neither read nor write but who had much native common sense. Instead of making an issue of the matter he had a grand party, got all the people pleasantly happy on persimmon wine (or was there something more in it?) had Moton made a fine political speech, saw that Hembricks made a less favorable one, talked of the colored people, settling, their own disputes, and ended by having Hembricks apologize to Moton the next day and cease his corporal punishment. One feels that the two school teachers, wise in the precision that two and two make and always will make four, had lost something of that native wisdom of dealing with men that belonged to the unlettered husband of Moton's landlady. It is as a leader of a group of colored people and as an honored advisor of many of the philanthropists of the white race that Dr. Moton occupies an important place. And the last chapter of his book, "Forward Movements in the South," shows us "The Way Out," that he believes is most possible and sane. Here he describes the work of The Conference for Education in the South, The General Education Board, The Southern Sociological Conugress, The University Race Commission and the most recent Interracial Committees. By bringing together the best people of both races Dr. Moton feels the race problem will become less acute. He has no royal panacea to peace and prosperity but the encouragement of co-operation among the elect is his A RH In Sub AND I And OI NORF For a limited per annual subscription This means a clea nal and Guide Sub To all subscriber Norfolk Journal and A BOOK O dealing with topics will be selected from Journal and Guide This special offer be withdrawn at a Address all com ders payable to Norfolk P.

There is a phonomenon known to sociologists as the "Illusion of the Near," that is, that when a thing is very close to us it it looms much larger than it is. I think the facts of history, and of the history that we are making, show that the philanthropies that come from this getting together of kindly minded people affect the whole mass of the Negroes very little, that private education, no matter how admirable, will never take the place of compulsory public education, and that the dwelling too much on gifts makes the receiving of rights all the more precarious. But Hampton's training on the race question, and Dr. Moton is Hampton's son, lacks in accuracy what it makes up in optimism, and the pleasant optimism of "Finding a Way Out" will win the approval of nearly all its white readers and many of its colored. There are some American Negroes who have counted for more black than they ever would have, had they been white. This is emphatically true of Booker Washington whose ideals were essentially the ideals of the aggressive, Rooseveltian type of white man, and who had therefore great chance for fame in representing these qualities in the Negro race. On questions whether this is true with Dr. Moton On feels in reading his life, as though the high spirit of adventure, the robustness of spirit inherited from his chieftain forbear had been repressed. As though the white race, with its cruel and crass conceit, had taken something from him that would have been his bad he ben born in America with a white skin, or had been left to develop his ability in his native land.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Dear Mrs. Dixon: I read your answers in each week's Journal and wish you to answer this in the next issue. Do you think a married woman, with children, should try to take a definite course, such as is offered in the night schools. I am thirty. MARY. Mary, as your name implies, you are a real little housewife and do not care to add anything to your present daily routine. But I must advise you as I think best. "It is never too late to mend." If without too much sacrifice of yourself and time, you can take any profitable course do so, you will not live to regret it. Mrs. Dixon, do you think millinery a good business for a woman? good business for a woman. In my opinion there is none better. There is no reason for failure provided the right principles are adhered to. 1st: A good location; 2nd: Up to date stock; 3rd: Reasonable price; 4th: Politeness and 5th: Old fashioned horse sense. A store run on these lines with a little money behind it will succeed. Mrs. Dixon, what is left for a girl to do if a fellow stops calling? This boy has been going about with me several months, and I like him. —DESPONDENT. If you have nothing worse than a broken heart, forget him. Young folk get over love affairs pretty quickly Go out, see people and do not mope. The right man will show up after a while. A young woman wrote me the other day, stating that she had a husband and two lovely children, ages 10 and 12. She was in good financial condition, some one to help with her home duties, etc., but that she was unhappy because she had nothing to do and would I advise working. The letter was too long to print, but I am putting my answer in the paper, that all who care might read. A woman is never justified in leaving her home and children to go to work, unless she needs the money. Again the mother, that has nothing to do with two children entering the adolescent stage is either very smart or very ignorant. Why children at this stage are a different study each day. If, as you say, time is heavy on your hands and you have some spare change, turn to charitable work. Real charity among the aged, sick, WHAT SHALL WE PLAY AND KEEP QUIET HIDE AND SEEK WITHOUT MOVING Each player hides in an imaginary place while the others guess where he has hidden, in three trials. The one making the correct guess is to be the next hidden. Ex: Mary says to herself, "I am behind the door." The others begin guessing. Neither child moves out of place. GUESS AGAIN First player thinks of something in the room and names the first letter: for instance he thinks of stove, names S, the others begin guessing everything in the room beginning with an S. The one making the correct guess has the next go. MAGIC MUSIC The player goes to the piano and one goes out of the room. The others decide on something for the absent one to do. The absent one enters again and the music plays softly. Here the fun begins, the player that was out tries to think what to do and is guided by the music. When he comes near the object the music plays softly, when getting away from it the mu- Personal Mention Fraternal Notes I am especially hurt over something a friend said to me in ordinary conversation, that I am sure she meant me to take to myself. I did not show any feeling, but it hurt so much. I have tried to find a genuine friend by being genuine but it seizes the sting will always be felt. Do you think women ever have the real article for each other. —LOUISE. Louise, all women are not catty, but you will find few that do unto others as they wish others to do to them. Do not expect too much of a friend and you will not be disappointed. WILD FOWL Please tell me why wild duck are not on the market as usual? There is a law for bidding the shooting of the ducks for market. They can be shot only by sportsmen.

Ex: John goes to the piano Sally leaves the room, John and the other players decide that Sally shall take a handkerchief from Bill's cont pocket, (the handkerchief is showing above the pocket.) Sally enters, the music starts. She turns toward Will the music gets softer. She proceeds in this direction and does everything she can to Will except to kiss him, while the others laugh, if she attempts to leave him the music flares up and there she remains doing things to Will until she thinks of the handkerchief when she pulls it out the music stops. This is good for the reasoning faculties. It puts them thinking.

New York Financier Accused of Mental Murder Mr. Rex Radclift, vice president of the Northern Atlantic Railroad and a director in a score of several other big financial and industrial institutions, is being held in New York as being the cause of the murder on April 19 last of William Harding, president of the Northern Atlantic Railroad. It will be remembered that Mr. Harding was found dead in the library of his Fifth Avenue home, and Harvey Weer, his former secretary was found in the next room with a smoking revolver in his hand. The young man seemed to be in a trance or stupor, and when arraigned before the magistrate the next morning pleaded that he had no recollection of biving committed the crime. He was tried and in spite of his protestations all the evidence found in the case proved conclusively that Harvey Weer was the murderer of Mr. Harding, and he was sentenced to the electric chair in Sing Sing. However, after his conviction his case interested Mr. John Bonham, the noted society man and author, and with the aid of the doomed man's wife, investigations were started which conclusively proved that Rex Radcliff, the vice president of the Northern Atlantic Railroad by the power of mental suggestion drove the unfortunate youth to murder Mr. Harding because of a fancied wrong. It has been stated on authoritative information that Mr. Radcliffe who is now accused of the murder has said that rather than allow himself to be arrested that he would kill himself. The police have asked the Connecticut authorities for extradition papers in order to arrest and bring him to New York City for a hearing before the Grand Jury now sitting in the Criminal Court Building. Those who are interested in this remarkable case of murder by mental suggestion may see the entire story enacted and the mystery solved at the Attucks Theatre when this remarkable story will be shown under the title of "HIS BROTHER'S KEEPER." This photoplay was written by N. Brewster Morse, one of the youngest as well as one of the most successful authors to the day. The theme and plot is from the original scenario by this writer and is full of genuine thrills. Regular patrons of the Attucks are advised by the managenient to come earlier than usual in order to avoid the large crowds. Shown Friday and Saturday.
