Norfolk Journal and Guide $7,000,000 MERGER OF TWO RACE FIRE INSURANCE COMPANIES VOL. XXII. NO. 38 EIGHT PAGES . GREAT SOUTHERN COMPANY MERGED WITH BANKERS' Spirit Prompting This Movement Indicative Of Race Business Men's Forward Step Toward Pooling Finances. MERGER PRODUCES GREAT ENTERPRISE The Great Southern Fire Insurance Company, of Atlanta, Ga., has merged with the Bankers' Fire Insurance Company, of Durham, North Carolina. In completing the merger the Bankers' Company reinforced the entire outstanding business of the Great Southern, which amounts to about three million dollars and takes over the assets of the company amounting to about $150,000. The merger represents a transaction now has the largest actual cash paid in capital of any financial institution among Negroes. SKETCH OF GREAT SOUTHERN The Great Southern was organized July 1920, and began actual underwriting of business during the same year in the month of November, but has operated only in the state of Georgia. The first president was Mr. W. C. Thomas, of Atlanta, Georgia, but on account of his illness to resign and Mr. R. E. Sharrow, of Atlanta, Georgian, was elected in his place. SKETCH OF BANKERS' FIRE The Bankers' Fire Insurance Company was organized in July 1980, and the Bankers' Insurance Company was organized in February 1921. During the same year it entered Maryland and the District of Columbia. The first part of 1922 it extended its territory to the state of Georgia, and is now operating successfully in the above mentioned states. The officers of Bankers' Fire are: W. G. Pearson, president; C. G. Stevens, vice-president; M. Moore, second vice-president; A. J. Strong, third vice-president; J. M. Avery, treasurer; W. Gomez, secretary-manager; M. A. Goin, assistant manager; M. A. Goin, assistant E. R. Merrick and R. McBaldie comprise the executive committee. VIRGINIA NEXT STATE The merger was brought about largely through the efforts of Mr. L. E. Williams, president of the Wage Earners Savings Bank, of Savannah, Georgia; Mr. W. Gomes, secretary-managing of the Bankwest Five Insurance Company, of Durham, North Carolina, and Mr. John E. Nail, of the firm of Nail and Parker, New York, New York. Mr. Nail brought the matter to the attention of the Bankers' Fire early in the fall of 1921, making a trip South at his own expense to confer with the controlling officers of the South, which time he had a conference with Mr. L. E. Williams and other directors and officers of the Great Southern. A conference was finally arranged between representatives of the two companies. His conference was held Geelong during the month of August, resulting in the merger of the two companies. The company hopes to begin business in Virginia at an early date. SCHOOL ABANDONED; ONLY 83 PUPILS Board Decides That Small Enrollment Does Not Warrant Continuance Of Classes There. The Thomas Jefferson school, (white) at the corner of Charlotte and Bank streets, has been closed by the school board for lack of attendance. The school opened with an enrollment of only 83 pupils. The board decided that such small enrollment did not warrant the continuance of the school and those 83 scholars were transferred to the J. E. B. Stuart school. It is probable that the location of the Thomas Jefferson school is the cause of its small attendance. The school is unlikely becoming colored. White families within close proximity of it are very few. It's abandonment is the result of the shifting of the city's population. The city council will decide at its next meeting what disposition is to be made of the building. With new enrollments in the colored schools last week the overcrowding is expected. If some of the teachers that part time classes may have to be increased. ANNOUNCEMENT. Miss Minnie Perry, wishes to announce the marriage of her niece, Miss Mary E. Perry, to Mr. Albert M.

LELIA WALKER WILSON SPEAKS TO NORFOLK CITIZENS Tells In A Scholarly Manner Of Her Travels In Holy Land; Biblical References Made Interesting Sidelights On Talk. "My Trip to the Holy Land," was the subject of an interestlne address delivered at the First Baptist church last Tuesday night by Mrs. Lelia Walker-Wilson, daughter of the late Madame C. J. Walker, and present head of the Madame C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. Quite a large crowd assembled at the church to hear this most interesting address, and see the worthy head of the illustrious Madame Walker-Wilson, recently concluded a tour of a large part of the Old World and the Holy Land. In her travels she visited among other places Rome, Alexandrin, Cairo, Venice, Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Bethulia, Jerusalem, Belfast, Moved M. Vesuvius, Pompeii, Monte Carlo, Jericho and the Red Sea. BRILLIANT ADDRESS Following the distinguished young lady in her address afforded a rare treat to Biblical students. After the description of each place visited in the Holy Land, she named the chapel where she resides in the Bible which refer to them. In this address Madame Walker-Wilson made no reference to the great industry of which she is the head, but confined her talk purely to an intellectual discourse. Her manner and talk were quite the intellectual and at no time gave up the task. She is the famous daughter of a famous woman and the head of a million dollar concern. *Continued on Page Eight* YOUNG WOMAN HURT INREAR-ENDCOLLISION Trolley Cars Collide, Injuring Miss Esther Wilson, Who Occupied The Rear Seat. Miss Esther Wilson, of 2762 Glasgow street, Portsmouth, met with a very painful and probably serious accident, when two inbound trolley cars collided on a street Thursday night. The rear end of the car in which Miss Wilson was riding was completely wrecked, she being near the rear was the only passenger hurt. She was rushed to St. Mary's Hospital, where received medical attention and was afterward sent home, where she is now under the care of the family physician, Dr. H. E. Barco. Fortunately, Miss Wilson was accompanied by an American doctor, Paxton, who rendered valuable aid. Miss Wilson conducts the Ideal Beauty Parlor at 1204 Church street. TIDEWATER HOSPITAL TO BE REMODELED When Alterations Are Completed Norfolk Will Boast The Finest Colored Hospital. Work on the new building of the Tidewater Hospital will be started in the early spring of next year. When completed it will be one of the finest colored hospitals in the country. The present building is to be thoroughly renovated in the next few weeks; all the walls of the building are to be painted with waterproof coat of paint. The progress of the hospital has been very satisfactory and the patronage has been more than gratifying. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1922 CHURCH VOTE ACQUITSTHEATRE GOERS OF SIN Given Fifteenth Place In Rev. Bowling's Test. Lying Leads And Less Than Half Disapprove Dancing. The result of Rev. R. H. Bowling's very novel plan for ascertaining the sentiment of his congregation on what constitutes the city's major sins, when studied closely, reveals some particularly interesting information. The pastor gave to his congregation at last Sunday morning's service a number of straw ballots enumerating 15 sins, which are usually classed by the public as the most glaring. The re-election of the committee entitled eight votes. He was requested simply to put a cross mark opposite the sins he considered the worst and return the ballot to the pastor. 541 persons marked and returned their ballots, votes were cast covering the 15 sins. Recently, several pastors in the city have preached special sermons on Norfolk's major sins and it is noticeable in the tabulated result of the canvass that neither of the subjects directed takes first place in the minds of the voters as the worst transgressions. Out of the 3,609 votes cast the tabulation shows that the voters consider "Lying" the major sin. This particular transgression stands at the center of the close second with 388. This tabulation, stealing and immorality follow in the order named. It should be stated here, however, that immorality is a word with a very broad meaning, and it was left to the voters to determine the conclusion upon the term. It IF thou thou the master mind adultery, fornication and kindred vices. THEATRE GOING LAST The voters labeled financial crookness as the sixth sin and put dancing in the seventh place. That is, dancing polled 237 votes out of the 3,600 and just about one-half of the people thought that dancing should be allowed. Not one-third of the voters considered that card playing should be enumerated among Norfolk's major sins. The 164 votes cast to classify card playing do not resemble one per cent of the total vote. Non-support of the vote and lack of church discipline took 12th and 4th place respectively and the theatre going was enumerated last. It stands as number 15 in the opinion of the voters. Only one-seventh of them considered theatre going a sin, and this means that carrying the ratio to the city's entire population is not a lack of patronage very good and a suit of religious abstinence. If the same ratio were applied to dancing, it would also indicate that dance halls and private parlors will continue to be alluring places of amusement. Applying the same ratio still further as in the previous section, it indicates that one-half of the population consider this a major transmission. THE TABULATED VOTE Lying 391 Bootlegging 388 Gambling 381 Stealing 373 Intelligence 317 Financial Crookedness 278 Dancing 237 Money Madness 209 Lack of Home Training 209 Treacherous Leadership 173 Gain Playing 154 Non-support of the Church 161 Disloyalty 163 Lack of Church Discipline 102 Theatre Going 73 Total 3,609 Three votes each were given Adultery and Laziness, two votes each went to Sabbath-breaking and dealing Hell for cruelty and spirit, the following: Taking God's Name in Vain, Jazz Music, Lack of High Ideals in the Home, Worldliness of the Church, Covetousness, Use of Nar- bition, Robbin, Killing, Hyperspy, Killing of the family, Spirit, Liquor Drinking, Law Evasion, Taking a Chance at the Fair. DECIDEDLY WET Out of 541 people, casting 3,600 votes to determine what are the major sins. Liquor Drinking drew only 10%. The pastor's object for making the canvass was to better enable him to direct sermons at what the people want, marrying evil in the city. He will begin the series next Sunday morning. 100 Year Old Bed Quilt Gets First Prize at Fair The bedquilt that was awarded the first prize at the Colored Agricultural and Industrial Fair, is a very fine Odd Fellows' emblem quilt, and is a specimen of hand work of the first order, made by the prop- porter H.

NEW BABY TOUCHED JUDGE SIMMONS' HEART William Dickerson, colored, 24 years old, of 1514 Chapel street, was up before Justice Simmons Wednesday on a judge's bench at the courthouse. The Justice looked William over and handed him a vacation ten days in jail. Then it was brought to the attention of the judge by Mrs. Dennis old baby at home, and that the baby needed its dad. The little mother's plea oftended the good judge's arms and the W. Lilien's imprisonment from the jail sentence to a fine and costs. MOTORCYCLE RACE STELLAR EVENT ON LAST DAY OF FAIR Thousands Attend On The Closing Day; Estimated Attendance Close To 50,000 Persons; Motor Daredevils Drew Big. MANAGEMENT PLANS LARGER ONE NEXT YEAR Saturday and Saturday night crowned the Norfolk Colored Fair with overwhelming success. A continuous stream of humanity poured through the gates from early morning until late at night and at the close of the gates when Norfolk's First Annual Colored Fair became history, its worthiness as an institution for this city had been completely established. Excitement ran high all day Saturday, horse racing drew its hundreds of spectators, as the motorcycle race in which local daredevils of the cap and goggle and two wheel motor steeds took the speedway. The motor team was known as Sketcher's Black Demons. The four daredevils who took the track were: J. H. Lilly, driving an Indian; J. H. Jones, driving an American; J. John Land, putting the rag to an Indian and Lonnie Hicks piloting a Harley-Davidson. Two Five Mile Heats. It had been pre-arranged for the team to ride a ten mile heat, but owing to some difficulty in the regulations at the track it was decided at the last moment to ride two five mile heats on the same terms and conditions.

FATE OF LIBERIAN LOAN UNCERTAIN; BORAH OPPOSES IT Idahoan Sees Veiled Hand Of Wall Street In Proposed Legislation, Cites History Of Nicaraguan And Haitian Loans. SENATORS HARRISON AND MOSES IN COLLOQUY Washington, D. C.—The Liberian loan bill has been made the unfinished business of the Senate. It was taken up for consideration on Monday of last week, but discussion disclosed certain facts in regard to the proposed amount of $5,000,000 to the government and the upon which it is to be made that its disposition cannot be foretold with any degree of certainty, although it is an Administration measure. The only definite action taken so far by the Senate was the adoption of a rider to the bill. It was offered by the President, of Idaho, and provides for the appropriation of $20,000.00 for reclamation purpose in the West. A Moral Obligation. Under authority of the second Liberty loan act, credit was extended to the Government of Liberia in the sum of $5,000,000. There were certain conditions providing for the establishment of an American refinery or civilian financial affairs, which had to be before the loan was actually made. The Treasury Department advanced $28,000 to the Libarian Government for the expenses of her delegates to the Peace Conference. But before all the conditions were compiled all the war endes and the credit was withdrawn, the limitation that this authority of the Secretary of the Treasury to establish credits, with any of the foreign governments engaged in war with the enemies of the United States "shall cease upon the termination of the war between the United States and the Imperial German Government." The advocates of the measure contend that the Republic of Liberia declared war upon Germany with the expectation of this loan; that she suffered considerably by having her ports blocked and her ships attacked and so from Liberia attacked; and that while the Libarian Government had not complied with all the terms before the ending of the war, a sufficient number had been fulfilled to (Continued on Page Eight.) WHITE "Y" OFFICIALS WORK WITH COLORED White Officials Visit Queen St. Association And Offer Their Services In The Work. M. Burt S. Fenn, general secretary of the Central Y. M. C. A., and the members of his staff have not only proffered their services from the Central Building, but four of them have visited the Queen Street Association and requested that they might be used in any way possible.

DEFENDENT REPRESENTED BY ATTY. BERRY D. WILLIS Miss Estelle Jones, 19 year old slayer of James Buddy Butts, was acquitted of the charge of murder by a jury in Corporation Court, part 2, last Tuesday. She testified with witnesses made a defense case of self-defense for the girl. The blundgeon that the slain man was using on the girl when stabbed was exhibited in the court room and created great sympathy for the defendant. Lawyer for the defense succeeded in getting before the jury the dead man's record as a fighter. Witnesses for both sides corroborated the story that Butts' was slain while beating his slayer. The girl sobbed throughout the trial. The jury returned a verdict in ten minutes. Lying across her mother's lap and sobbing until she was on the verge of a collapse, Estelle appeared slow in realizing what the words "not guilty" meant to her ng they foll from the lips of the clerk of the court as he road the findings of the jury that was to determine whether she should spend the remainder of her life in prison or to be set free. Short Trial It was fully 10:30 before the trial got under way and less than two hours after, the girl, who drove a knife blade in the heart of her brother, was arrested at the morning of August 13th, between 1 and 2 a.m., on Lincoln street between Nicholson and Queen, was on the street and free. It was quite generally known by everybody in the court, room, before the testimony of the judge of acquittal would be rendered, the testimony of every witness coincided in the statement that "Buddy", the famous tenor and member of Norfolk jazz quartet, lost his life in a death encounter in which his slayer probably saved her life only by taking his. Self-Defense Established After the testimony of a half dozen witnesses had been heard, so complete had a case of self defense been established that the defense declined to call any more witnesses Shackley suggested to the attorneys for the Commission and the defense that it would be useless to consume any further time preparing a charge to the jury. Assistant Commonwealth Attorney Jonathan W. Old admitted as much, and agreed with the judge that in view of his previous investigation of facts he might have been nolle pressed except that a trial would give the public the benefit of all the facts. Attorney Berry D. Willis, of the law firm of Coleman and Willis who defended the girl, took no chances, however, and continued to materialize from interviews after witness material or builders for self defense until that fact had been so well established that the verdict could be safely predicted. Mr. Old, although realizing that the stato's case was falling down, carefully guarded the interests of the Commonwealth throughout the trial. The attorneys as few objecting to questions naked witnesses by the attorney for the defense. (Continued on Page Eight.)

The two joined together are much like the American Thanksgiving bird when roasted—very dry, very olless. But "what's in a name." The. race is holding its own in savings bank deposits in spite of the unemployment periods we have been passing through. When business picks up, when employment becomes more general, race deposits are bound to be greater. Why? Simply because the race is gradually learning the wisdom of saving for the rainy day some of what it earns. Salute Hezekiah Brooks, "a colored gardner and fruit grower of Miami, Florida." Why salute him! Because he has produced a new variety of the mango plant, a much valued tropical plant. And his variety matures between November and January, when the other varieties are not in the market. Luther Burbank of California has become famous as the producer of new varieties of fruits and vegetables. Organizations of one sort and another grow up among us over night, as it were. Many readers of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE had heard but little of the Woodmen of Union until they read the leading news article in our issue of September 9. A fraternal race organization that can send 2,000 delegates to a convention from 1,200 lodges in seven states, with assets of $43,400, having paid $61,000 in death claims in the past six years, is an organization of tremondous importance. It is estimated that fifty thousand colored people passed through the gates during the four days of the Norfolk Colored Fair, and it is worthy of note that there was not a single incident of disorder of any kind throughout the four days and nights. There was only one arrest and that was of a white man, evidently an attache of one of the attractions and not a Norfolk man, who had imbibed too much liquor. Not a single colored person was seen drunk or under the influence of whiskey, or otherwise disorderly, which is in itself an exhibit of progress of which the colored citizens of Norfolk and vicinity may well be proud. The colored citizens of Northeastern North Carolina are among those who are felicitating Editor W. O. Saunders, of The Independent, Elizabeth City, upon recent evidences of substantial progress. The Independent recently moved into its own handsome new home, equipped with Duplex press and additional modern facilities, and is now issued twice a week. Editor Saunders has always been a fearless champion of right, and he draws no lines of race or creed when it comes to espousing the cause of the disadvantaged, the weak and the oppressed of either race. His conspicuous, progress in business upsets the belief held by many people that a white man cannot openly advocate social and civil justice for the Negro in the South and succeed in business, politics or religion. The Norfolk board of education need not worry about what to do with the Thomas Jefferson (white) public school building at the corner of Bank and Charlota streets, which it has closed because of insufficient attendance. An article in the JOURNAL AND GUIDE last week showed that there are seventy part time classes in the colored schools, some of which are very much overcrowded, and that until something can be done to relieve the situation there must be double sessions or part time classes at the high school. The Thomas Jefferson school is situated in a section that is now distinctly colored, and there is abundant precedent in the records of the Norfolk public school, system for opening the building for the use of colored children. It would be a fine thing for the board to do, and it would save the taxpayers of Norfolk money in the education of both their white and colored children. WE MAY HAVE FUEL FOOD The strike of the coal miners appears to have been broken, by mutual understanding and concession, for the time being at least, and coal has begun to move from the mines to the great centers of population where the large manufacturing industries are, for the most part, located. And the movement of coal and the first frost in the air began to be felt about the same time. Of course, the movement of coal from the mines is of the greatest and most pressing importance, and four of the big railroads have placed an embargo upon the movement of other freight than fuel and foodstuffs for the time being. This was made the more necessary because of the crippled condition of the railroads, whose striking shopmen have not all as yet returned to their work. The futile effort of President Harding to get the striking mine and railroad workers and the owners and managers of the railroads to adjust their differences for "the public welfare," and the hesitation of Congress to bother with the question, because so many members are up for re-election in November, with the sweeping injunction obtained by Attorney General Daugherty enjoining the strikers from violent and destructive acts against 'non-strikers and property, all goes to show how much the Nation is at the mercy of organized labor on the one hand and organized capital on the other for the production and transportation of the necessary things of life. How to secure the needed legislation to hold the scales even between producers, transportation agencies and the consuming public thus becomes the most vital question in American politics. All future elections will revolve around this question until a satisfactory solution of it has been reached. Afro-American wage-earners and consumers are as vitally interested as others in the proper settlement of the question. LAWLESS JUSTICE Recently at Senatobia, Mississippi, the entire congregation of the Afro-American church was arrested in order to learn the identity of those who are supposed to have murdered Andrew Johnson, the church treasurer. The body of Johnson was found near his home. Authorities proceeded on the theory that only members of the church were supposed to have any knowledge of $200 which was turned over to the treasurer but deposited the day after his death. If this theory were carried out all white people in Senatobia could be arrested if one of their number should commit a murder, as it would be reasonable to suppose that a whole white community would know the guilty party, but no such thing as this wholesale church arrest of Negroes could happen anywhere else where a congregation of white persons was concerned. It is this sort of lawlessness of justice that works disrespect for law and legal process. There is no safety for life and property when the law and legal processes are brought into contempt by those in authority. The same rule holds good in most of the Southern communities when a Negro commits a crime. All the Negroes are placed under suspicion and wholesale arrests are made without any regard for the rights and feelings of citizens thus roughly handled. Abuse of authority, of power, is the surest and swiftest way to break down law and legal process. TWO GREAT MEN DEAD The great Baptist Association of the United States has sustained the loss of two men by death whom it is not easy to replace. These two men are Doctor R. H. Boyd, and Doctor E. C. Morris. Dr. Boyd was a man whose opportunities to secure an education were of the most limited character, and, yet, as head of the Baptist Publishing House, in Nashville, he rose to the very highest distinction as a Baptist leader and builder. He was not only a great pastor but a great business man. We do not think we have an example of a churchman that will compare in constructive work with Dr. Boyd. The Baptist Publishing House will stand as his sufficient monument and as an inspiration to young men of the race to go and likewise in constructive work for themselves and the race. Dr. Morris was a man of a different type from that of Dr. Boyd. He was a scholar. Twenty-eight years ago he was elected president of the Baptist Association, and the fact that he was continued in that office to the time of his death, is sufficient testimony to his usefulness and success in managing the affairs of the Baptist people. The loss of two such men is a race loss rather than a denominational loss. We have remaining with us strong men in all of our denominations, but it will be difficult to find two men of the constructive ability and experience that Dr. Boyd and Dr. Morris acquired through long years of ups and downs in the conduct of the two departments of the Baptist organization where they were the dominating influences. Men come and go, but the institutions they build, the good they do live after them. It is by multiplying all such men that races and nations become great and make n lasting impression upon their times. BRITISH RULE IN EGYPT The British foreign office under Lord Curzon, is committing another blunder by announcing at this critical moment, when Moslem sentiment has been aroused as never before, by the Turkish victory over the Greeks, that the British Government is going to resume its protectorate over Egypt. The reason for this fatal step is that the Egyptians are incapable of self-government, and that they cannot conduct themselves homestyle in their The present government of Egypt, formed by the Moderates, who are tools and favorites of Great Britian, is charged with corruption, while that Nationalists, who form a majority, or eighty per cent of the people, are out of office by the British High Commissioner, Adly Allenby, and the treacherous Adly Pasha, the Egyptian leader of the Moderates. The British are deceiving themselves by accusing their own favorites, because the Nationalists are still supreme in the eyes of the world. The questionable policy of Great Britian simultaneously in Egypt, India, Arabia, Mesopotamia, Palestine and Ireland, will ultimately defeat its own end by strengthening the Nationalist element in these countries. The real reason for resuming the British protectorate over Egypt is not the one officially given; it is altogether a different one. The policy of Great Britian in the Near East is based upon religious and racial animosity, territorial aggrandizement and economical exploitation of the nations in those unhappy lands. The Turkish victory constrains Great Britian to apprehend an Egyptian nationalist uprising in favor of Turkey, but if Great Britain determines to resume the protectorate the Egyptian revolution will come sooner. It is of special interest to note that the moderate faction of the Indian Moslems have sent a cablegram to the British Premier to observe strict neutrality in the present Greco-Turkish war. The cablegram further emphasizes the return of Constantinople, Galipoli and the whole Straits to the Turks. If this request is not granted, the Moderate Moslems of India add, Great Britain will be heading toward a great disaster. And Great Britain is actively taking sides with Greece. It seems that, just as France and Germany brought on the late European war, the British and Turks will bring on a greater war between Europe and Asia. This will be a war in which a great many questions that affect vitally the whole world involve. The race question, the color question, the economic supremacy of the West, the life of imperialism and militarism, are the outstanding questions that the war between Asia and Europe will be fought about. The tide of color has risen. Europeans will have to ask, as did King Canute, and today are asking, the waves of this furious color and race ocean to go back and subside. Time will decide the question. Briefs and Spices (BY 6, J. C.) Hunting trouble is some folk's favorite pastime. Worrying about your income won't curb your outlay.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE ALIVE AND FULL OF INTEREST. Editor Journal and Guide: Sir—We thank you for the excellent position and display given our advertisement in your special edition. Your paper is alive and full of interesting news. We are glad to have a paper of upstanding character, up-to-the minute news and sound opinion. To attend a court in many sections of the South leaves the awful impression that there is no justice in the land. Two men would be charged by the judge, but placed on the county roads and the other given a suspended sentence because of the difference in the color of their skins. Two women would be arrested, and placed in a filthy cell, the other be allowed to go because the cell is not clean enough in which to place her, all because one is black and the other was white. Just a few days ago in Raleigh a Negro was arrested for "peeping," whatever that is. The police authorities tried to make a serious charge against the cocoon act of unfortunate Negro, the court said. Any law that would convict him, so the charge was changed from peeping to trespass; this they could not prove after keeping the Negro in jail for sentences to the roads for vagrancy. Another Negro in Raleigh very recently was charged with assault on a young girl. When the evidence was presented, the assault died. Some people accused the Negro was sentenced to the roads. An appeal was taken and the case was not pro-posed. Yesterday a young Negro working in one of the hotels of this city was arrested. The cency of an auto. When the evidence was presented it was found that the Negro simply moved the auto a few yards down the street that the street sweepers might sweep in front of the car. He was employed. Despite this he was found guilty of some technical charge and fined. The Negro seems to be the sole object of the policeman's search and the solicitor who gets his pay by the number of convictions is actuated not with the nature of protecting society, but securing a conviction at all costs. May God hasten the day when solicitors will be paid in some other way, that the real nature of justice out of the realm of the butter, which we admit is a powerful force in stirrir¹ men to action—Raleigh, N. C., Standard. OVERLOADING PREACHERS WITH RECEPTIONS, MONEY AND PRESENTS Consuring the public, perhaps, is not a wise thing. for a newspaper to do, and yet we do not believe that everybody is guilty of what we find so much wrong. We argue that the membership of our churches constitute quite a reliable and conspicuous part of the public, but it appears that they often go wrong when they are not careful and cents where they would do the most good and where they are mostly needed. Men and women usually feel that they know how to spend their own money and they are apt to do so. But we find in many of our churches a time-honored custom of overloading preachers with receptions, money and presents as the best means of showing the preachers what is thought they serve honor and many of the pastors of this city, handling as they are handling in a diplomatic and Christian-like way the larger churches, care should be honored. But there is such a thing as overdoing everything. Special occasions of note should be considered, but we think it is entirely a waste of public funds and a drain on the pocketbooks of poorer people on the street. We have to lavish upon him money and presents on every little turn. A case in point: A few days ago we were in service and heard the pastor announce that he wanted a vacation. One of his friends had recently talked with concerning the matter, immediately produced a collection plate and in less than 15 minutes $100.00 had been collected for the vacation money. This preacher had recently been given a pastor's reception, and the amount of money had been presented to him. It seems to us that a preacher with honest convictions would take into consideration that many of his parishioners, if not the larger portion of the people and would courage any such move.—New York Amsterdam News. Unique Entertainment At Va. Beach Casino One of the most enjoyable affairs at Virginia Beach, (white) was the big dance given bythe colored help of the oak and others from New York.

Pythians Ask No Prosecution of Mitchell Richmond, Va.—According to a despatch of the Afro-American, Baltimore the endowment department of the Knights of Pythians sent a committee to the Commonwealth health department that further proceedings against John Mitchell, in regards to their account with the Mechanics Savings Bank be dropped. Mr. Mitchell is president of the bank which is now the hands of receivers. The Pythian account involved is said to be $28,000. The resolutions in part reads: "For more than twenty years, the money of the grand lodge Knights of the Holy Cross of the celler, has passed through the personal account of John Mitchell, Jr., our present Grand Cancellor. Sometimes the personal account was in debt to the grand lodge, and sometimes the grant! lodge was in debt to the grand lodge, and sometimes in increase in membership from five hundred to ten thousand, no additional office force in keeping with such an increase has been provided and for more than twenty years, the private business office of John Mitchell, Jr., has been paid for a young age without any compensation whatsoever salary has not been increased for fifteen years or more. Colored Navy Employee Wins $1,000 Prize Washington, D. C.—The United States government has awarded $1,000 to John T. Risher, a colored employee of the Navy Department, for devising the best system for the keeping of records of the navy. The committee participated in by 100 men, officers, who submitted plans, the ruling being made by the Board of Admirals after week's deliberation. It is estimated that the Risher system will be used to govern $700,000 annually. The committee have already requested and received an appropriation of $200,000 from Congress for installing the system. It is said that this scheme will not only save time in the compiling and navy records but that by it the office will be able to locate any man in the navy the highest to the lowest, on a moments notice, whereas under the old method it took several days to obtain this information.

Aeolians Hold First Workout; Game Coming Norfolk Will Have Opportunity Of Witnessing Some Football Classics This Season If Plans Of Locals Carry. Last Monday evening, the Acolians, formerly the Attucks All-Stars, held their first workout. Practically all aspirants for positions were out. Much pep and spirit were put in the initial workout. It is expected that competition will be exceedingly keen owing to Captain Jackson's remarks. He declared that the Acolian team had eleven vacancies and every man must make his position by the superiority of his ability. No player has made his position due to the fact that he played last year. The competition between tackles will be harder than any. There are nine tackles. CLASSIC OF THE SEASON More games will be seen in Norfolk this season than heretofore. The football loving fans will have a rare treat. Some of the noted colleges will be here and som of the fastest independent clubs will also be seen in action. The Aeolians assure the public that they will bring a number of colleges here. The classic game of the season will be between Shaw University and the Aeolians. In this game one of the fastest Southern college teams will be seen in action against one of Norfolk's best elevens. Shaw, with her hard hitting and aggressive squad, composed of All-American players, in a game with the Aeolian All-Star eleven promises to be the stellar attraction. The Aeolians made an enviable record last season; a greater record is expected this year. The backfield which was dubbed "The million dollar backfield" has suffered a lost, but it has been refilled or replaced with a dependent player, formerly of Shaw University's varsity squad. He will alternate in three positions and is exceptionally good in each. Terms are being arranged with St. Augustine, of Raleigh, N. C.; National Training School, of Durham, N. C.; N. V. and I. I., of Petersburg, Va.; Y. M. C. A., of Washington, D. C.; Y. M. C. A., of Baltimore, Md., and the Adelphings of Richmond, Va. The bringing of these colleges and clubs here is contingent upon the rallying of Norfolk fans to the cause of the old trusty Aeolians, who will bring the bacon home, grease and all. Permanency OF ORGANIZATION In the weekly meeting held last Sunday at headquarters, R. E. Jordan's sign shop, Church street, over Rankin's old store, a constitution was adopted and Mr. J. R.

Motorcycle Race Big Event At Fair Continued from Page One In the first race, Lilly, driving like mad, put his Indian round the five mile lap and under the finish ropes in 7 minutes and 20 seconds, with Jones and his Harley-Davidson a close seconds. Hicks, piloting his Harley-Davidson until her exhaust sounded like one continuous buzz took third place and Land was not able to do better than fourth. Second Race. In the second race, Lilly laped the field, clipping four seconds of his time in the first race, covering the five miles in 7 minutes 16 seconds. Hicks took second place in this drive and although Jones made frantic efforts to put his Harley back in second it was a Harley he was trying to overlap and his efforts were in vain. He finished third. In this race the fourth place again fell to Land and his Indian. The team is managed by Mr. Vermont Skeeter who operates a garage on Chapel street. The purse was $100.00 split $45.00, $35.00, $20.00. All of the boys exhibited admirable skill in handling their machines. Their recklessness brought thrill after thrill to the great crowd. The race was a clean sportsmanlike event without a mishan. All of the attractions at the Fair were at their best on the closing day and the crowd did enjoy the feats. The management has been voted the thanks of Norfolk citizens for their efficient managing of the affair. Their efforts, it is felt, have been creditable to Norfolk colored people. Especially was their success in securing the Public Health Exhibition of untold benefit to the community. The estimated attendance at the Fair is close to 50,000 persons.

Self Defense Plea Of Estelle Jones Sustained Continued from Page One City Coroner Testifies. The first witness was the city coroner, who testified that the singer received knife wounds in the leg, arm and chest; the one in the chest piercing his heart and producing death. The next witness was William Norman, who testified that he saw the affair which resulted in the killing while standing on the opposite side of the street. Norman's testimony was in this manner: "I saw Buddy standing across the street talking to Viola Butts between 1 and 2 a.m., (not related to the dead man) when Estelle came up and said to Buddy I want to see you'. Butts answered that you had better go away from here before I knock your — head off. The girl came up to where he and the woman were talking and Butts struck her with his fist. Another man rushed up and tried to make peace, when Butts pushed both the girl and man down in the street, the man on top of the woman. He then walked around the two while they were on the ground and kicked the girl several times on the head. Estelle and the man who was trying to protect her succeeded in getting on their feet, the woman starting up the street and Butts following her. A cripple, Eddie White, hoping to prevent further trouble reached the girl before Butts and tried to void the man off. Butts then grabbed the cripple boy's crutch and struck the girl across the head with it, knocking her down; a part of her body landing on the sidewalk and parts of it lying out in the street. Butts jumped on the woman while she was down and apparently stunned and proceeded to maul her. I could see her hand motioning while she was down but was too far away to see the knife. He jumped off the girl and struck her again with the crutch. He then walked away and cried I am getting freak, staggered up to a post, started across the street and fell." Damaging Evidence. Gerald Hodge, the next witness gave the most damaging evidence against the girl, if there was any damaging evidence against her at all, and at that, in the more important details his story corroborated that of the first witness. Hodge stated, in part: "I did not see the actu, fighting. I saw Estelle at 732 Lincoln street two hours before she out "Buddy". She had a knife when I saw her. She remarked in my presence that she loved Butts and intended to kill him if he mistreated her. Two hours later a man came to my house and told me that Estelle was cutting Buddy to death and he was trying to kill her with a crutch. I then went out in the street. When I reached the scene the man was cut and dying." Lawyer Willis succeeded in getting this witness very much confused in his story of the previously heard threat. The lawyer also brought out that Hodge was a member of the tenor singer's quartet. Mr. William Ballard, a middle aged man, who conducts a store on Lincoln street, gave the evidence which made the greatest impression and no doubt freed the girl. His testimony corroborating that of Norman's was straightforward and intelligent. He testified that he saw Butts strike the girl with the crutch and when she fell, he remarked to himself, "there goes a dead woman." He said that he saw the man attack the girl while she was down in the street and deliver several blows on her face and head with the club and it was during this scuffle she thrust the stab in his heart. He stated that he saw "Buddy" strike Estelle the second time with the crutch and knock her down, but this was after he had been stabbed. Story Corroborated. Eddie White the cripple corroborated the story of the preceding witness in every detail and upon questioning by the lawyer admitted that he took a knife out of the hand of the slain man after he had fallen. Officera Testify. Officer Pitt, the arresting officer in the case, was then asked a few perfunctory questions, relative to the arrest which brought out that the girl made no attempt to escape after the killing and that her people had cooperated with officers in surrendering the girl. The crutch which was exhibited had been broken off and was split in many places. It bore a heavy iron ring around the foot. When Estelle was declared acquitted a demonstration brooke loose in the court room which resulted in a woman spectator being fined. There was much handshaking with the girl as she walked out of the courtroom. During the progress of the trial hore had not been spoken a word favorable to the dead boy. His popularity seemed to have faded after his tragic end. Mrs. Butts-Brooksc, the mother of "Buddy", stated at the time of the tragedy, that she did not feel vindictive, and would not endeavor to intensify the prosecution of the SUFFOLK ADVERTISEMENTS TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY FOR RENT 4 Sets of Office Rooms-Ga Lights installed.

She said that she 'realized that the girl ha da mother and she Mrs. Brooks-Butts, intended to take her sorrow unto herself. True to her word, at the trial, she never uttered a word of contempt for the slayer of her son, nor did she even give her a scornful glance. Nattily dressed in a black slut of heavy black an dwearing a veil she sat quietly throughout the ordeal of hearing the damaging evidence against the name of he, dead son. Mrs. Lelia Walker Wilson Speaks Continued from Page One INTRODUCED BY PASTOR Rev. R. H. Bowling in introducing the speaker referred to the Madame C. J. Walker Maufacturing Company and its potent influence for good among the race. The great institution stands not only as a monument to personal integrity, business acumen and perseverance, but also as a light on a hill to struggling race enterprises, forever effusing its rays of hope and encouragement and bidding them to persevere on. In a material way its benefits are inestimable. Thousands of women all over the country earn a livelihood in their own homes through culture and above all its greatest good and the one most easily appreciated, the Madame Walker system of beauty is its enhancement of the natural beauty of Negro women. After the interesting address, many in the audience were hoping that the young woman might indulge in a few personalities and let them hear in her own words a bit of her life's history and a little of the story of her mother's rise from the ranks to a great success, but the Madame was absolutely reserved on those points and left the audience to content itself with biographical references for the "Life and Works" of Madame C. J. Walker and Madame Leila Walker-Wilson. Madame Wilson's reservedness, however, had nothing to do with her genial personality. A minutes close-up with the distinguished young lady during the general hand shake which she held after the entertainment, readily convinced one that Madame Wilson is one of the folks that, though the possessor of a vast fortune, she is also the possessor of a genial personality and a charitable disposition, and that her great fortune has not calloused her love of race. Her handshake was of that genuine "delighted" kind and the expression was really mutual for Norfolk people were genuinely delighted to meet Madame Wilson. LITERARY PROGRAM A beautiful literary program was presented by local talent as a prelude to Madame Wilson's address. The program was properly short, but exceptionally brilliant. Its contribution to the night of entertainment made the whole affair equal to anything given in this city recently in intellectual brilliancy. In a large town you are judged by what you have on; in a small town you are judged by what the neighbors have on you.
