The Excolsor Band has returned to the city from the Elks Convention at Newark, N. J., with its colors waving, its prestige still aglow, and Norfolk citizens give one harmonious short "Hurray Excolsor! Norfolk's idol, and as good as there is any- where." In all of the Band's many journeys to Northern cities and the unequalled prestige it had earned heretofore, it demonstrated on this trip the greatest demonstration ever before in its history. The reviewers lined on both sides of the streets of the city viewed all of the bands with admiration, but so thick was the jam, when the Excelsiors were passing that the band was compelled to stop until the police could clear a road of wayways or and the band had to formations to pass through the admiring throng, "Norfolk Band." was the hue and cry on all sides. In fact, the Excelsiors virtually took Jersey by storm. Members who have followed the band many years, state that never before has the Excelsior been in more popular favor in the Northern States. And in front of the city hall, where the Mayor of the city extended congratulations for their splendid renditions; another in a public park where hundreds gathered and shouted approval. No trophy was awarded this year for the best band, but there it would have been just one more cup in Norfolk. Two Boys Killed Hendreson, N.

Born A Slave On A Mississippi Plantation He Rose To The Heights As A Minister, Business Man And Benefactor. Nashville, Tenn.—The death of Richard Henry Boyd, founder and secretary-treasurer of the National Baptist Publishing Board, at his home in Nashville, Tenn., last week removed from the race one of its ablest figures and from the nation one of its most valued citizens. Dr. Boyd was one of the most prominent ministers of the race and country, conspicuous churchman, especially in the missionary field, both home and abroad, a sagacious business man, editor and publisher and philanthropist. Richard Henry Boyd, was born a slave, in a log cabin, on the Gray plantation, County of Nuxebue, Mississippi, March 1843 and died a man of letters, influence, affluence and national repute. In his early childhood he was known as "Dick" Gray, after his master, Gray, but in latter years he changed his name to Boyd. When Richard was around six years of age his owners moved into Texas and there he served the family until after the Civil war. "Dick" serving in the army with the male members of the household as a confederate throughout the struggle between the States, or until they were killed in battle. WORKED AS COWPUNCHER When the last of the members of the family fell wounded i n the conflict, Dick Gray carried him back to the plantation in Texas, where he (Dick) remained with the family until the old mistress broke up the home and went to live with her daughters. The slave boy then went out on the Texas plains as a cowpuncher and from there he drifted into a sawmill where he served as a mill hand until 1869, when he confessed religion and entered the ministry and the latter part of that year he was ordained a Baptist preacher. One year later, through the assistance of a white Baptist minister, Rev. Snodgrass, Dr. Boyd organized the first Negro Baptist Association in Texas composed of about six churches. He afterwards built several churches in that State and served as educational secretary of the Negro Baptist Convention of Texas and superintendent of Missions in that State. It was while serving in the capacity as superintendent of Missions he conceived the idea of supplying literature to the Negro Baptist Sunday schools and for two years this literature was supplied from his office in Texas. WENT TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES in the year of 1896 he went to the National Baptist Convention at St. Louis, Mo., and was elected secretary of the home mission board to do mission work among Negroes in the United States. He afterwards organized the National Baptist Publishing. Board, hence, in January 1997, Dr. Boyd had issued the first series of Negro Baptist Literature ever published in the United States: Dr. Boyd had no literary training as it was 1865 before he was taught his alphabet. After he was ordained to the ministry, he then spent two years studying at Bishop's College, Marshall, Texas, a school founded and operated by the Home Mission Society of New York. Richard Henry Boyd's life history is replete with interesting incidents marking the rise from log cabin slave boy to the man of national fame. GAVE TO EDUCATION He gave largely of his means to education, making contributions to Bishop's College at Marshall, Texas; Hearne Academy, at Hearne, Texas; Gaudalaaupe College and Boyds-Normal and Industrial Institute, which bears his name; Central, Texas College and Roger Williams University, at Nashville, Tenn. It was through Dr. Boyd's efforts that four Negro Baptist churches were built at Panama during the construction of the canal. He has written fourteen denominational books that all have been adopted and used D. P.

SEPTEMBER 2, 1922 We all feel better because the National Negro Business League met in Norfolk and gave us a chance to look over its splendid membership. Forty-two years ago the race began its banking ventures with $100 deposits; today we have sixty-nine banks with aggregate deposits of some $12,000,000. That is progress, but it does not show a title of the money values unbanked which the race has secured in the same period. The cowardly murder of Michael Collins, the leader of the Irish Free State party, and the disorders which have gripped the Irish people during the past year, show that Irishmen may be capable of self-government but that having been given a reasonable opportunity they have failed to do so. The matter of self-determination and self-government is not so easy to manage as it looks to be. The JOURNAL AND GUIDE extends congratulations to Editor J. Finley Wilson of the Washington Eagle upon his election as Grand Exalted Ruler of the Independent Benvolent Protective Order of Elks. To head this organization is a coveted distinction, and to have won it in a field of strong contenders shows that the Washington editor has lost none of that personal magnetism that has always made him conspicuous among men. PRESIDENT HARDING EXCITED In his long message to Congress stating the conditions prevailing in the rail and coal strikes, which threaten the coal production and food transportation of the country, and asking Congress for remedial legislation to control the situation, which his best efforts at mediation had failed to do, President Harding showed that he was really excited about the disposition of the strikers to resort to violence and the destruction of property in the effort to win. The blood of the murdered strike-breaking miners at Herrin, two of whom were foreigners, and the disposition of the strikers to prevent others from taking their places, appealed to President Harding in such a way as to excite our admiration but not to: appeal in the least to our sense of consistency. Neither as a member of Congress nor as President has President Harding shown the indignation, the excitement, at such outrages as the Phillips county murders by officers of the law, aided and abetted by persons constituting a mob, or the lynching and burning of John Henry Lowry at Nordena, Miss, in the Christmas days, in 1920, as he had shown in this strike situation. He has not insisted upon the enactment of the Dyer anti-lynching bill with the whole-hearted earnestness and enthusiasm he has shown in his appeal to Congress for remedial legislation to control the mobocracy which has prevailed among the rail and coal mine strikers. The failure of the Government to end the coal and rail strikes, and to restrain the striker from acts of violence, and the owners and magnates from extreme measures that prevent an ending of the strikes, does not show in the least that it is wise and best to place ownership and operation of public service corporations under Government ownership and management, which is a dangerous business' and which the World War showed to be a costly business also, but it does show that Government control and regulation of such service corporations is absolutely necessary. The public interests in their normal and peaceful conduct is essential. The two strikes under consideration have demonstrated that capitalists and laborers cannot be depended upon to protect mutual interests; it has also been shown that labor cannot be left to the mercy of capital, and that the Government must so legislate as to hold the balance even between owners and workers and the consuming public. Proper commissions with adequate power would do this. GARVEY IN A STORM Marcus Garvey has been in a storm ever since the opening of the third international congress of Negro peoples of the World, in New York, Aug. and '14. The nature of Mr. Garvey's position makes it necessary for him to act the part of a dictator and there always some times when dictators find it hard to keep cool heads and their feet on the ground. The trouble appears to center around the fact that Mr. Garvey must act the part of a dictator. This fact, and his way of going about the business, creates fighting discord among the leaders of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the American and West Indian groups and has led to the resignation of two of the leaders, including Mr. Garvey, and the impeachment of two, including Rev. J. W. H. Eason, "the American leader." The theory is that Mr. Garvey set the example of resigning in the hope that the other members of the working council, whose election depends upon the convention, would also do so, his belief being that he would be re-elected while the others would be defeated. It was a shew of political maneuver. Those who refused to resign have had the impeachment machine run over them. Mr. Garvey has instituted libel suits against a bunch of New York newspapers, daily and weekly, including two race papers, aggregating a claim of some $750,000 damages. The filing of these suits shows that Mr. Garvey is unduly sensitive to criticism of his acts. It is a dangerous disease. He is also under indictment by the Federal grand jury, in New York, for using the mails with intent to defraud in the selling of stock for the Black Star Line and the misappropriation of some $800,000 in that venture. He has also claims of some $40,000 against him growing out of leasholds of "steamships" of the Black Star Line. We are able to conclude that Marcus Garvey is one of the most phenominal organizers and one of the worst business administrators the race has produced. He has thousands of members who are loyal and back up his vast expenditures of money with their dollars and are ready to fight for their leader at the drop of the hat. But he is in a bad storm at this time and he must be a prophet who would say how he may come out of it, with a term in the Federal prison staring him in the face. SMITH MADE BRAVE FIGHT Hon. Harry Clay Smith, editor of the Cleveland Gazette, is a good fighter and a good loser. He ran in the Republican primaries as a candidate for Governor, and made a creditable showing in the voting. There were nine candidates, all white excepting Mr. Smith. That would show that the primary is a good democratic institution in which, when honestly conducted, the best man should win without boss dictation. Mr. Smith says, in a signed editorial, that some of the candidates spent large money and that the votes in the two largest counties, Hamilton and Cayahoga, were manipulated in the interest of the Administration candidate, Mr. Carmi Thompson. He says also that some fifty Negro spellbinders were hired by his opponents to go up and down the State preaching against him and his candidacy. He should not marvel at that. As long as the average Negro who takes to practical politics is as poor as Job's turkey, plenty of them will be found to be both mercenary and disloyal. It is the way of the hirling and time server everywhere. It should not be forgotten all of the time that as a whole and as a group we are just like the other races and groups. That puts Shakespeare among the prophets, by the saying, "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin." So it does; but it does not make all the world alike, each being built differently in his way and in his day and generation. Mr. Smith should console himself with the reflection that he stood manfully for a principle and that, to paraphrase Lord Tennyson, "it is better to have run and failed than never to have run at all." Briefs and Spices (BY 8. J. C.) Roughly speaking, the school of experience is turning out a bumper crop. A mule can't kick and pull at the same time—neither can a leader. What's worst than having a friend, you just can't lose, tell you of your short comings? If bootlegging is a business it's one of the few that have so far kept out of the bankruptcy courts. The average man's idea of a vacation is placing himself in a situation not classified as "wanted." Announcement by scientists that insanity is the cause of divorce is really the first intimation we had that we're living in an "insanitary age." * * * The only modern feature about the proposed African Empire is the fosters are trying to locate its capital in America. During the Medical Convention in Washington last week several small town drug stores announced cut rates on patent medicine—but sales were normal. Wonder is expressed that the most determined critics of dancing are men. When a woman finds time for recreation—she uses it more advantageously. Scissored A. TIME FOR COURAGE Knowing the admirable qualities of the colored people of Richmond, The Times-Dispatch is fully confident that they will, not permit the difficulties of their environment to destroy, or even substantially abate, the faith they have in themselves, and their own institutions. Not only for those who are included in the scientific mechanics' Saving Bank, but for every member of the race in this community, the moment is one for that reflection and counseling, which will reveal how the situation of this transient mischance to the worth and aspirations of a people. The sympathy of Richmond white people for the intelligent, earnest effort of the colored population to improve its own estate is so well-known that it is often called sympathy, far from being impaired, will be quickened and made more universal by this shadow—transitory though it must be—of distress. It is the manifest part of all of us to encourage and encourage may lie within our powers; it is the privilege of all of us confidently to expect that there will be no loss of faith, no faltering of step on the part of a colored population, no evasion to the means of a courageous self-help—Richmond Times-Dispatch. What They Say A FINE EDITION The Journal and Guide, of Norfolk, Va., gave the public a fine edition for the National - Negro Business League, which meets in that city this week.

OPINION OF THE DEACONS Editor Journal and Guide, Sir: We take this method of giving answer to Mr. Smith's letter in your issue of August 26th. In our Journal and Guide, the space was well filled with wonderful truths and descriptions of sending and giving to the poor. We member the poor, we have with us always and it has been a special pleasure of this church and board to give to others, spiritually, financially and all ways that go to answer the question of "giving" that was spoken of in the Holy Writ" in the days of old. We must feel highly blessed to think, out of a membership of 2,300, and for the long time we have been working for the Master that the pub is public, statement of faith, or makes a public statement of faith, or that pertaining to our free way of giving. We know of no other way that we could show our appreciation better than giving from out of our big humble hearts to one whom we, with your worthy of not only a car, bigger things if possible for us to give them. Martha didn't think at the time she broke the precious box of ointment and poured it on the head of her Master that it was a memorial to the burial of our Lord. Judas complained of the gift because he thought, he said, of the poor. But Christ knew that in many words he explained to him that he was black and he was sorry that he not have the price of it for himself.

LEAGUE Young People's Congress A Meeting of Inspiration NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE His Efforts Made Great DR. S. S. MORRIS, GENERAL S. Young People A Meeting of Many Of The Most Notable Men In A. M. E. Connection And In The Race Were In Chicago At The Great Meet. The Connectional Young People's Congress, Allen Christian Endeavor League, of the African Methodist Society Church with which Chicago was from August, 16th, to 20th, is being heralded as one of the greatest and most successful gatherings of Christian Workers ever held in America. And to the genius and ability of the S. Morris, General Manager of the A. M. E. Church, in the Metropolitan Bank Building, Norfolk, is given unstinted praise for the institution of the Congress and the successful holding of its session. The sessions were held Quietly, the Session held by Rev. H. E. Stewart, pastor. Then, consisted of four general divisions: (1) Quiet hour from 8 to 9 o'clock each morning; (2) Period of instruction from 9 to 11 a.m.; (3) Inspirational services, 10 to 12 p.m.; (4) Rock; and (5) 10 to 12 p.m. and (4) General Discussions and Lectures, 2 p.m., to 7 p. m. Able Men Attended Dr. Morris had invited some of the 'ablest men in the' A. M. E. Connection and the race to be present and many of these celebrated churchmen were in attendance. Bishop Coppin, Bishop Carey, Bishop Hood I. N. Ross and Bishop Sampson Brooks. Many prominent members of the Allen Christian. Endeavor Board were also present among whom were Dr. Morris, the secretary, Rev. Wallace, the dean, Jay F. Wallace, J. C. Caldwell E. R. Anderson and others too numerous to mention. The daily attendance was estimated at about six hundred and the nightly attendance at about 1200. An elaborate program: relating to every phase of Christian work, the cops and the church, was followed and out of the congress with its large attendance evolved practical and advanced methods of teaching and inspiring young people to greater effort in religious endeavor. From all parts of the country representatives of that great A. M. E. body were in Chicago. of others to be deprived of so many things that God had in store for them. of the Board of the Second Calvary Baptist Church, honor the gift and regret we can't do more for our pastor. R. X. JONES, Chairman A. E. HILL; Clerk MURDER WILL OUT Editor Journal and Guide. Sir: I am glad you had courage enough to speak out in behalf of the oppressed poor church members, who have been the Sunday, school to the last service, either by growing church debt or to lavish upon an already well paid pastor something that he could well afford to buy for himself. As a member of the church you have the courage to criticize for its ill-advised course, I congratulate you. It is certainly true that the poor working people of this city do have to sweat, sweat, sweat, to carry the burden of their church debts. Don't falter, Mr. Editor, as a friend of the working people, who do not have the courage to them when someone feels like tying another millstone about their necks. Venerable men and women who have come through the years in gospel mission work addressed and advised the young people. Brilliant young men and women, advanced thinkers and teachers, were there to impart and receive instruction and inspiration for a greater building of the Kingdom Indeed, when Dr. Meiss looked upon that assemblage of religious workers in Quinn Chapel, he must have felt paid, in part, for his untiring labors in bringing together so many people, earnest in gospel extension to teach, to learn, to enhuse and to inspire that they might return to their respective communities. In the level of religious superstition among their less fortunate kin, and to better lead in ways of the Lowly Nazarene. Dr. Morris' Work Dr. Morris is yet a young man but his ability and influence in church and educational work is being felt and need is being met. His fast system and his question as General Secretary of the Allen Christian Endeavor League of the connection is one which requires masterful ability and a genuine love of learning. He is succeeding in this capacity is best told by the printed reports from all sections where the A. C. E. League has found settlement. The secretary of the A. C. E. League, Mrs. Edith Martin, win has been a valuable asset to the successful functioning of the Leagues' work throughout the country, Collins, Mrs. Yeng Grandy, and Dr. Norfolk, Yeng also among the Norfolk delegates. Institute Work It is claimed by those who attended the Congress that the Institute work was the most important feature of the sessions. The Institute staff was in charge of Dr. J. C. Caldwell, Director General. In this connection Sunday School Methods were emphasized by Dr. J. C. Caldwell, Sunday School School specialist; Rev. W. H. Jameson, Illinois, instructor; crudel roll department; special lecture, "Child Welfare," Miss Violet Hill, Wythe, W. C. T. U. organizer; special lecture, "Teen Age Problems," Miss M.

Bryan, will have a tag day in aid of their general relief work among the many needy poor of the army. We have no idea of the amount of people here have no idea of the amount of destitute cases the Salvation Army is helping, from time to time. Scarcely a day pass but what someone is at the Captain's door, with a tale of woe, desiring financial help, is given. The case is taken up, assistance given as far as possible. Much more could be done if the public at large would rally to the support of the work. Many are sent to the Salvation Army by individual who could provide the assistance. Because they rather give to make the rich richer, and leave the poor to die from want. Do not turn down any agent who may appeal to you, on the occasion of the tag day, but appreciate and help. Disbelieved is he that considereth the poor, the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble."—Psalms 411.1. GRACE P. E.

The message was acceptable to many who expressed themselves. This Sunday is the first Sunday in the month and the members are requested to prepare for the Holy communion.

GOLDEN TEXT—Our God will fight for us—Neh. 4:20. 1. Nehemiah begins to Robuild the Walls—Neh. 2:12-32; 4:6. Nehemiah's wall was to give a down cast and discouraged people a new opportunity in life. It was to help keep alive a civilization which was to bear vast treasures to the Israel in Israel which would enable Israel to give the most to all mankind. One need not believe that Nehemiah fully understood all this in order to see that the wall he built was to shelter the things which would be destroyed days to come. When the wall was completed a furtive people had become a people with a basis for ordered and growing life.—(Hugh). The builder went about his work in a systematic way. He was too stupid to understand about the situations—he got his information first hand. A careful inspection of the wall was made at midnight, he passed around the ruined wall, noting how much work would have have to restore the wall and its various gates. Necmiah's next step was to call together the Jewish leaders, including the priests, the second leader, the families, representatives, work noting how much work would have to be done in order to restore the wall and its various Nesheim next step was to call together the Jewish leaders, including the priests, the secular authorities, the heads of families, workers and men. He told them why and how came he to Jerusalem and about the desolate condition of the wall. The third chapter tells how Nesheim divided the workmen assigning to them particular work to be done. So the wall was built, because the people had a mind to work. "All true work calls for whole-heartedness. I heard a gentleman who was talking to another about a mutual friend who failed in his job. He said, 'I don't believe that he failed; he starved his work, he did not even put himself into it.' And we may be sure nothing will ever be built unless the builders put themselves into it. It is not God in creation a whole-hearted worker? The times need to be fine, the times need to be finely perfect as the greatest cedar. Was not Christ in Galilee a whole-hearted worker? He never dealt carelessly with any comer. And none of us will ever come to anything, or find life growing rich and deep and beautiful, unless we begin by having a mind of you."—Roger G. H. Montgomery, D.D. 2. The Bitter Opposition—Nehemiah 2:10, 19, 20: 4;1:14. The enemies within—Nehemiah had not only to meet outside hindrances, but he had to face the grumbling disaffection of his own people in Jerusalem. "And Judah said, the strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed, and the truth is that we are not able to build the wall." These adversaries failed, because God as with the work and the workers was with the work and the workers. V. 14. "The enemies of the good to-day take many forms, and are as perverse as the evil. They assail our good intentions with ridicule, with infidel arguments, with worldly temptations. They use bad companions to lure us from our God-given tasks. Now they threaten and now they canjole. Now they wear the mask of friendship, and now they blaze warfare." 3. The Final Success of the Work. Noh. 4:15-74. "No time was wasted in jubilation. The work was the main thing, and the moment the interruption was ended back they all went. It is important to discharge it, because discharge of duty, and of that most valuable quality, the ability and inclination to keep up the main purpose of a life continuous through inseasons, like a stream of sweet water running through a bag."—Alex Maclaren. When the foes of Nehemiah could not prevail against him, they left him. God had, brought their counsels and schemes to nought. From this time on Nehemiah prepared for the war, and he wrought in the work, and the other half held the spears, the shields, the bows, etc. Nehemiah and his workmen trusted God; watched vigilantly, worked diligently. "So neither I, nor my brethren, nor servants, nor men of the guard that loved me, moved me, one went with his weapon to the water." V. 28. Read chanters 5, 6. The wall was completed, finished in fifty-two days. The successful completion of the work filled Nehemiah's foes with chagrin and fear, and his friends, with great joy. But Nehemiah gave all the praise to God. The sword and the trowel in modern life. It was an effective correlation of the constructive with the defensive, forces of human society. The religious leader who counsels his people to do with their might what a form of society worthy to be called as the Kingdom of God on earth, and at the same time, counsels them to snite hip and thigh the saloon and brothel, the gambling den, the unjust employer of labor and the unavish employee who is a slacker the political grafter and other wermin Brownie Club BREEZES Conducted By MIRIAM DIXON MONTOY JOURNAL AND CODE MOTTO: DO A GOOD DELF EVERY DAY BROWNIES CLUB , Sugar, 1 cupful Dessert (chocolate) 1 cupful Peanuts: (shelled) 1 cupful Put peanuts on a buttered tin plate and place on a baking dish.

Stories By Brownies THE LITTLE SINNER Once upon a time there was a little boy who wouldn't say his prayers. He would tell the bed real early. About the time his mother, thought he was asleep she heard him cry out and when she went upstairs he could not be found. Something had carried him up the chimney. He was in the deep part of the forest and started to put him in the trunk of a large oak. "Please do not," begged the little fellow, "if you will only take me home I will never refuse to say my prayers. And I am thus day forth, Earl never forgot to say his prayers. LYDIA F. KING. THE BROWN DWARF OF RUGEN Once there was a farmer who had a son, and a miller who had a daughter. They lived on an island full of dwarfs and trots. One day the maiden strayed away and came to where the Goblins lived and did not return. The people searched for her bit she could not be found. The miller mourned for his daughter five years, then gave up the hope of ever seeing her again. The day John Dietrich told the miller the air and out and find his daughter, dead or alive. He put food in his sack to last a week and hid himself among the hills. When it was dark the Dwarfs and Goblins came out on the hills to dance. The leader tossed his enchanted ball and the air came out and dance about. John ran from his hiding place; took the cap and ran down the hill. All the company disappeared except the leader, who ran about begging for his cap. I will give back the cap upon find. I will Elizabeth for me. You stole her and now you must tell me where she is." "Give me my cap before the sun rises and I will tell you where she is" said the Dwarf. John only shook his head. "Come said the Dwarf. I go away, she is one of us. The cake is baked and tomorrow we will wed." Then John saw a glass door in the side of the hill. The Dwarf opened it and led the way down a long hall to a large square room. When they entered the room, Ehlan ran to them. He shouted, "away from this evil place. Oh, John where is my father? Do take me home." The Dwarf torc his hair and stamped his foot, but he was powerless without the cap, so he allowed John to lead the child out in the open air. The sun was rising and the two children had to blink hard after coming out of the cave. "Before I give you the cap you must pay this child for the time spent in your dark cave," said John. So the Dwarf gave them all the gold and silver they could carry. Then they hurried home. They made a huge maze among the hills again and whenthey was grown she and John were married and lived happily over after. THE BROWNIE SLAVE Once there was a Brownie, his mother was a slave and after freedom came she had very little for herself and children, but she did the best she wanted to learn something. He had one book, so he it and went to school. His lunch was parched corn, and when the teacher asked his name, he thought of his one book and named it *Bobclyde*. Booken won to go to a higher school, so he left home for Virginia, when he finished there he still wanted more, and went to a higher school. which prey upon society, is a man of sword and rowel; read alike the stories of his children, and to drive the forces of evil."—Dean Charles R.

It is announced from the offices of the Pender Greesy Company that on Saturday, September 2nd, the firm will be the occasion for much celebration by the company's employees and friends. The chain of D. P. Yellow Front Stores continues to lengthen at which the management expresses great satisfaction, but observation in the company reveals and even greater satisfaction among the people they serve. D. P. stores in Tidewater have become institutional and they are an institution in which colored people are vitally interested. It is their group which usually receives the smallest income and is the closest housewife who has to make the dollar do double duty. D. P. service is a valuable contribution toward that end. The smallest child may be sent to a D. P. store with the assurance that the child will not be unduly delayed in buying brand and weight. More importantly of these stores of "first come first served" 'assures the parent that her child will not be unduly delayed in buying brand and weight.' No. 100 is a result of this policy on the part of the D. P. Company. U. N. I. A. LOSING ITS HOLD IN NEW YORK U. N. I. A. LOSING ITS HOLD IN NEW YORK Sober-minded Men Watching Their Step And Their Pocket- books Before Being Led Further. (Special to Journal & Guide) New York.—This week brought to a close the thirty day convention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association with recorded accomplish- ment of a spectacular parade with participants dressed in riot raiment, a gorgeous court reception in which Garye himself, the King of the air Kingdom, was the idol surrounded by young ladies gorgeously attired and the prodigious bestowal of empty titles. It was a turbulent session, but it finally reached an end for which the New York police sighed relief. Garvey resigned as head of the organization, as a political maneuver, it is believed, officials were impeached, it is believed, officials were arrested, and whistlers were rife through the convention. A convention devoted to fighting it out has but little time to consider forward measures, even if it does last a month. It is an unfortunate move when he interviewed the Imperial Kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan at Atlanta. Up until that time the majority of his critics had become alienated, contenting themselves to a scheme. But that notorious interview caused other race organizations to conclude the man to be an actual bearable for Negroes and Garvey to lead them to Africa. The convention closed with thousands of the man's worshipers still holding to him, alba many sobered after they heard from their leaders own lips that the near million dollars entrusted to him by hard working colored people has been hopelessly squandered. Many have concluded that it is a fact that all idols have feet of clay and that glowing words and beautiful promises do not belong to the losers. This loss to robbers inside and outside of the organization and whose actions he was unable to control. JUDGE SCORED GARVEY The words of Judge Panken, addressed to Mr. Garvey at the end of the Orr trial, are being taken literally by many former Garveyites. The address of the Judge follows: "It itmes to me that you have been praying upon the gullibility of your own people, having kept no proper accounts of the money received for investment, being an organization of which the officers received outrageously high salaries and were permitted to have exorbitant expense accounts for pleasure jaundis throughout the country. I advise these 'dupes' who have contributed to these organizations to go into court and ask for the appointment of a receiver. You should have taken this and have hospitalized for coloured people in this country purchasing a few old boats. 'There is a form of paranoia which manifests itself in believing oneself to be a great man.' PHOEBUS, VA. Mr. D. A. Sumner, who has been in the city for the past ten days returned to Philadelphia last Friday. Mr. and Mrs. Barton White, of Princess Anne Acadamy, Md., were dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. H.
