Norfolk Journal and Guide CITY EDITION NO VOL. XXII. NO. 41. EIGHT PAGES White People Have Secured Able Counsel To Prosecute Case Against Woman And Boy; Declare Shooting An Assault. HAVE WARRANT ISSUED FOR THE BOY'S MOTHER Citizens of Gilmerton, white and colored, have refused to believe the story told by Mrs. Anna Kremlich concerning the shooting of George Washington Smith, by her 12 year old son last week, and state that it is their opinion that the unfortunate man was shot without good cause. Their opinion, they say, is based on common knowledge throughout that community of the temperament of the Kremlich family and what they know about "Bud" Smith, the man who shot she said to the dislover, used by their investigations since the shooting. The belief is held almost unanimously, throughout Gilmerton that the shooting was unjustifiable and Mrs. Kremlich's story faulty to say the least. Same as of the story altogether and branded the incident as an assault with a shot gun. PROMINENT CITIZEN TALKS One of the most prominent white citizens of Gilmerton, speaking for the majority of the white people of the town, unhesitatingly told reporters for this paper that they (the white people) intend to see that the case against the prosecuted and have already subscribed ample funds and retained counsel to aid in the prosecution. These citizens have caused a warrant to be issued against the boy's mother charging her as an accessory to the town of Gilmorton, situated about six miles south of Portsmouth, and once famous for its great lumber industry, but now the amity between its white and colored citizens, which are about equal in number, that a Negro had entered the home of Mrs. Anna Kremlich, who lives in an out of the way spot near the canal locks, and attacked his son, bruises and strong, seeing his brother's peril in the Negro's grasp went to his rescue, whereupon he too, was attacked by the desperate man and after a violent scuffle by the mother and all of the children, including a 17 year old boy, who succumbed to popping the apparently cruzed Nero from their home. STARTED TO PORTSMOUTH Mrs. Kremlich then left the house and started out to Portsmouth, about six miles away, to secure the aid of city officers (Gilmerton is in Norfolk an hourly schedule between there and the city) forgetting apparently to inform those chivalrous white men of the neighborhood of the attack in order that a citizens pose might apprehend him, and could get a car leaving Gilmerton for Portsmouth. She told her brave little son as she departed to protect his brothers with the gun if the man should return in her absence. She told the man when he was in their home threatening their lives has not been explained. While she was gone for the Portsmouth police the man did attempt to return to her home, but when he was within a few feet of the gate her nervy little son placed the shotgun to his shoulder and unloaded the would-be intruder, seriously wounding him and her seriously saving the family from probable serious assault by a crazed Negro. In ract, the above is the substance of the story told by Mrs. Kremlich upon the arrest of her 12 year old son charged with the shooting of George Washington. Stith with his body riddled with buckshot with his body riddled with buckshot MAN WELL, KNOWN Investigation has disclosed that "Bud" Smith, the alleged attacker, is a familiar character around Gilmerton; that he is feeble-minded and about 30 years old; that he is entirely inoffensive; that he was born and lived any place else; that he is probably known to every family in Gilmerton, white and colored; his parents, sisters and brothers live there. And the prominent citizen stated that with his life he loved every white family in Gilmerton in one capacity or the other as he makes his living by doing chores for different families. He states that, although, the man is mentally weak, he is entirely reliable and can be trusted to do anything else he is told to do. And, said this citizen, with all of his attending around white families "Bud" has never been known to attempt to attack any person, except on occasions, boys, knowing him to be insensitive, tease him by the joke he would then catch, and then would then catch the boys and give them a shake. In fact, all of the people who know the man state that he is too humble and servile to attack anyone. Smith's particular objection is that he is too humble and servile to attack anyone. His wood vending. There was a time not long ago when several saw mills were located in Gilmerton. The passing of these left as many wood dumps as there used to be mills, where fire wood can be, while this left wood carved as "Bud" would take a burial bag and go to the dump daily and pick up wood, carry it from door to Bootlegging At Bottom of All Liquor Law-Breaking Declares Pastor In Stirring Sermon "And now", inquired the pastor, "what do society and a man's own folks say about the drinker?") Then one after another men, women and children, representing the church, ledge, labor union, insurance company, Yankee K. C. A. employer, recruiting, rescuing, training, the jail, asylum, undertaker, school decent womanhood, his neglected wife and his poor little children, filed forward as summoned until the rostrum was crowded with witnesses against the drinker. After completing this taking of testimony the pastor took in hand and held his hands to the sight of a boy "both of whom delivered a closing Philippic against the whole present-day liquor regime and called upon his hearers to help the forces or law and order to further suppress this iniquitous civil. What "Bootlegging" Is Bootlegging is normally merely to the cipher of liquor. Just as 'the saunon' came to mean not merely the corner store that retailed intoxicating liquors but the whole liquor-manufacturing, liquor-selling and liquor-drinking regime, so 'bootlegging' has come to include the whole regime of liquor law-breaking and law-evading. When the average conscientious individual gives his bootlegging, he is scientifically voting against the illicit distiller, the illicit solder and the illicit buyer and drinker. It is in this general sense that I shall use the term to-night in this sermon on the "Criminal Sin of Bootlegging." It was thus the pastor began his striking sermon from Habakkuk 2:15. He declared further that liquor-handling by the illicit is because it stands condemned in God's word and because it is irreconcilable with human happiness and well-being." 18th Amendment Needed In declaring for the necessity of "prohibition" by amendment to the Federal Constitution Rev. Bowling said, "It took more than 'high license' to rid our streets of reeling drunk-ards and staggering sots. It took door in the neighborhood until he secured a sale for it. OBJECTED TO PATHWAY Now, it is said, the only easily accessible route to the wood pile is a pathway through Mrs. Kremlich's yard. Mrs. Kremlich strenuously objected to colored people using the pathway and although the Lake Drummond Canal and Wetland property, hnd always kept it open for public use, this family fenced it in thereby nearly cutting off access to the wood dump. Other persons around Glmerton who have used the pathway state that the woman has threatened many people with it. Smith emphatically denies going to the woman's nome and states that he was shot while picking up wood. Examination of his wounds has revealed that he must have been shot at a condiserable distance as he is peppered with buckshot. From his eyes and could have been near Mrs. Kremlich's gate when fired upon. A witness states that from the time he saw "Bud" pass his home enroute to the wood heap and the time he heard the report of the gun it would have to have been returned to the home of the white family and that he did go to the dump is evidenced by the burp bag he carried being found there. It has been further stated that Mrs. Kremilich had not gone to Perth when the shooting occurred, for immediately after the shooting school children, returning from school for lunch, met her with her children going up into the village, the boy carrying the gun on his shoulder, and the woman loudly shouting, "Smith's condition is not serious it is said, as n-ne of the shot entered his body in vital places. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1922. more than more educational propaganda to save the drunkard to society. It took more than local option and State-wide prohibition to put an end to liquor abuses. Federal prohibition was and is still needed." Ravages Of Drink “Think of what drink does to a man and to society. Physically, it unfits a man for work, requiring foresight and quick thinking, weakens his resistance against disease, unfits him for parenthood, and shortens his life. Economically, drinking stouts makes man income and leaves him and his dependent than his parents and rags, gives his credit a black eye, and transforms his home into a hovel. Spiritually, drinking breaks down a man’s will-power and dulls him to the finer things of life. There are even prominent men and women living today who think more of an alcoholic bar-room than do of the opportunity otherwise for lifting the lost and leading the people of God. As for the old time drunkard, two swinging doors, a smoke-filled bar-room and a friendly glass of beer had more charms than a savings account and a happy home for his wife and children. That is why the alcoholic bar-room, God’s word, was proclaiming, ‘Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? Who hath complaining? who hath wounds without cause?’ ** They that tary long at the wine; Thine eyes shall behold strange things. And the heart shall utter perverse thoughts, and the thunderings of the Apostle Paul, ‘No drunkards’ ** shall inherit the kingdom of God!’ Gambling Next Rev. Bowling announced that the subject of his special sermon this Sunday, night, would be the "Present Day Sin of Gambling." These special sermons are being preached as a result of a recent poll taken at this church on the city's greatest sins. Gambling ranked as the third sin falling only seven votes behind boot-egging. BUILDING BIG Y. M.C.A FOR COLORED PEOPLE Pittsburgh To Have Building Costing $250,000; Cornerstone Laying A Great Event In The City. Pittsburgh, Pa.—10,000 people attended the laying of the corner stone ceremonies of the Center avenue Branch Building of the Y. M. A. which will bring the largest of its kind to the United States for college men and boys. The cooperation of Pittsburgh citizens in this event of Sept. 24, 24 was an impressive demonstration of the spirit of partnership which is making the Center avenue a place of virtue and facilities. It is accepted as an assurance of future interest, as well as an inspiration and challenge to those responsible for leadership in the work of the Center Avenue Branch building will represent a total cost, including site and equipment of $250,000. It will embody all the facilities of a modern Association building—gymnasium, swimming pool and shower baths dormitory, library, classroom, social hall and quarters for religious and educational activities and entertainment features. White and colored citizens joined together, $25,000 coming from that wise and generous friend of such efforts in all parts of the land, Julius Rosenwald, of Chicopee. The raising of funds to furnish the new building is the next task. Dr. J. E. Moorland, Senior Secretary of the Colored Men's Department of the Young Men's Christian Association, has visited Pittsburgh the past several weeks in connection with this part of the financial campaign. Every effort is being made during October to bring in all the necessary funds. It is hoped to do this entirely among the colored citizens themselves. It is interesting to note that the $600,000 spent by the colored Associations in this country last year, $500,000 was given by their own group. W. W. FOREMAN WILL RUN FOR CONGRESS W. W. Foreman, prominent in Norfolk felt business circles, has been nominated for congress from the second congressional district of the lily black Republican party in Virginia. Mr. Foreman has accepted the nomination and is planning to stage an active campaign. Mr. Foreman's name was presented to him by the Republican in Richmond as the choice of the party leaders in the second district. He is now busy making plans for a big mass meeting at which his campaign will be lining the issues upon which his campaign will be made. REPUBLICANS HAND RACE VOTE COLD SHOULDER REPUBLICANS HAND RACE VOTE COLD SHOULDER Campaign Literature Shows That Party Is Indifferent To Attitude Of Colored Vote; Independent Drift Is Inevitable. G. O. P. STILL HOPES TO FLOURISH IN THE SOUTH Washington, D. C.—With the primaries and state conventions over in all of the states, the campaigns of the two major political parties are well under way and from now until November, there will be no let up offer to offset the largest possible vote for their party candidates. REPUBLICANS INDIFFERENT But a spirit of indifference as to the Negro vote seems to characterize the Republican campaign nationally. It appears that there is no national effort to secure this group vote for the Republican party, and arousing interest among them being left largely to the state committees. In the campaign literature issued by the Republican National Committee, every subject of national importance, upon which legislation is sought or has been had, except problems in which Negroes are peculiarly interested in the record of the Republican party on caring for and rehabilitating the ex-service men of the World war, of administration achievements in behalf of the Negroes, are particularly interested, of sixteen months of Republican effort in behalf of the farmer—in fact, every subject which would tend to align special interests with the Republican party is covered. SIX LINES ON NEGRO Six lines tell the story of the Republican party and the Negro. Three of these lines recite the recommendation of President Harding to the special session of Congress on April 12, 1921, that "Congress ought to wipe out the banners of the free and orderly the banners of the free and orderly representative democracy," and in a parallel column occurs the statement that the "Dyer Anti-Immigration bill, making lynching an offense against the Negroes of Representatives January 26, 1922." It might be that the Republican party by its apathy toward Negro voters hopes to retain its foothold in Southern states. By leaving it to the state committees to arouse interest in education among the colored electorate of their states if they see fit, it may be thought that no offense will be given to Southern white Republicans and, as a result, Tennessee and Oklahoma congressional district of Texas will remain in the Republican column. DEMOCRATS DOING LESS The Democratic party—dominated by men like Pat Harrison, of Mississippi; Tom Hefflin, of Alabama; and Tom Caraway, of Arkansas—is doing everything to curb the growing the Negro to be found in any of the literature issued by the Democratic National Committee. Their sole activity in this regard consists in Chairman Cordell Hull, who is the chairman of the Negro he knew as a waiter in the House restaurant, from which Democratic members of the House would bar Negroes as patrons, and, after greeting him in the manner of a typical Tennessee man, he would say to the "om" men, we're going to like "om". A. VOTE. FOR A DEMOCRAT A. VOTE. FOR DISFRANGHISEMENT The concensus of opinion among outstanding Negroes in politics is that the Democratic party has not yet reached the point where the self-reliance of Negroes is not sufficient for other than local offices in the Northern states. They take the view that a vote for a Democrat for United States Senator or member of the House of Representatives is a vote for a Democrat for a state and against every interest of the Negro; and in support of their contention they point to the practical workings of government by political parties and the party control. States and their representatives are bound by a party vote to the support of or opposition to legislation. Dr. Moton Sails For Foreign Countries Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Oct.-Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute and president of the National Negro Business League, led on the business of the University which left New York Wednesday, October 4th, for Paris.

While abroad Dr. Moton will address other bodies in Scotland, England and France. He was accompanied by Mrs. R. R. Moton, Dr. Paul Lake Imus and Nathan Institute of Technology, principal of the Minor Allen Washgtg, of Klampton. Dr. Moses At First Dr. W. H. Moses, of New York City, who has been preaching at the First Baptist church during the present week, will return for another week of service this Monday night. Service will be held of years in great demand as a speaker by both white and colored audiences. TOO MANY WIVES AND BABIES GET MAN IN JAIL East St. Louis, Ill.—Just as Mrs. Alice Johnson was putting her little baby to bed last Monday night the door bell rang. Picking up some wraps the baby she answered the ring. At the door she met a young woman, about her age, and quite good looking. Her caller inquired for Mr. Johnson. Mrs. Johnson resisted before answering but visitor soon made her a muskier woman. "Well, I married him, too, explained the caller," and I have a pretty but "bad" face. You you have in your arms, and left me and never came back. I went to his mother's funeral Sunday and he was not there. His sister told me that she he married you." Wife: No, she did. They wilt and wept for a while, finally deciding that there was little hope of either of them getting support from the much marrying husband, so to save him, maybe, from their experience, they had him arrested. MARCUS GARVEY TO BE TRIED NEXT MONTH Mail Fraud Charges Against Head Of U. N. I. A. About Ready For Trial. New York, (Crusader Service)—From an authoritative source, a representative of the "Crusader Service" learns that the United States Government is now ready to bring to trial its case against Marcus Garvey who, it will be remembered, was arrested several months ago and subsequently indicted by a Federal Grand Jury on the charge of having used the United States mails to mislead and defraud.

Attorney W. L. Davis, within a day after returning from Richmond, where he appeared in the case of the Tidewater License Emblem mcrs against several Burial Associations of this section, left the city for Baltimore to appear in the case of J. A. Brown of Baltimore Steam Packett Company. Undertaker Brown, of Norfolk, is suing the Baltimore Steam Packett Company for $5,000 for alleged unlawful ejection from a state room for which he had paid. Mr. Brown avers in his complaint that he reserved accommodations on one of Company's steamers for a trip to Baltimore on a certain day in August 1921, and that officials of the company colored used unfair methods to deprive him of the use of the room and offered him accommodations in another part of the steamer. Forcible Ejection He complains, that the methods used by the company officials amounted to forcible ejection. The case has been set for trial several times but there has been alienation of the defendant when the date set for trial occurs. Lawyer Davis and his client are determined, however, to keep the claim alive until the courts pass on the matter. Attorney Ashbie Hawkins, of Baltimore, is also fighting the case with lawyer Davis. Attorney Hawkins is a lawyer of wide reputation and is a dean of the Nero Bar. Case Continued The case was again continued and's row scheduled to come up some time after Thanksgiving day. Lawyer Davis was called out of the city twice within one week to appear in two cases, of police importance to local citizens of Norfolk and Portsmouth one of which is of special importance to the entira race. The outcome of both is availed with much interest. A woman in Atlanta, Ga., the other day was fined $50 for telling the judge to "go to the devil." MQRAL: You can't talk to a judge like you can a husband. Embalmers Gain Advantage In First Round Of Fight To Upset Alleged Unfair Competition; Long Battle Expected. MAY FORCE COMPLIANCE WITH INSURANCE LAWS The outcome of the case of the Tidewater Licensed Embalmer's Association an organization of colored undertakers against several Burial Associations of Norfolk and Portsmouth is eagerly awaited by the principals in the litigation, but by the colored people throughout this section as well. Insurance Commissioner Button of the Insurance Firm whom the case was heard last Friday placed at the conclusion of the hearing that he might render a decision in the matter within a few days. Whatever the decision from the commissioner the prospects are for a International legal fight, it is said, before the State Corporation commission and maybe the The complaint filed by the licensed embalmers against the Burial Associations sets forth the contention that the Burial Associations are in feet of the companies and should be compelled to cooperate under the insurance laws of the state. Free Lances At present, so far as relates to state supervision, the Burial Associations operate as free lances because bonded nor otherwise subjected to the laws of the state which control policy issuing organizations. For ten or fifteen cents joining fee and an equal amount weekly a policy may be maintained in the Burial. You are promised to urnish the holder with a $500 burial at death. They do not pay the half the beneficiary of the deceased, but provide the deceased a burial. That this is an unfair advantage to the policy holders when compared to regular insurance insurance rates and similar contentions of the Licensed Embulmers. They state that an insurance policy issued upon the life of a child between the age of ten and twenty years will be premium of ten cents more than $200 if death occurs before the of twenty is reached, and that the money will be paid in cash to the beneficiary, whereas the Burial Association's policy provides only a $100 child confines the choice of the undertaker to one of their own selection. Business Monopoly The undertakers contend that this plan effects "a monopoly in the colored undertaking business as it often occurs, they say, that a person dies and some friend of the deceased and some friend of the deceased held a policy in the burial association the undertaker can go no further as the association has first claim and can turn the body over to any undertaker it wishes to for burial and they usualy have regular undertakers for their work. It is also claimed that the associations give no accounting and claim to have no assets, but operate upon current revenues which it is admitted are more than sufficient to bury policy holders. Undertakers Contention This the undertakers claim is a violation of sound business practices as in fact the policy holders have no guaranteed protection as the company does not unqualified a reserve for the protection of their policy holders as insurance companies are. The policy holder pays in his money weekly and his protection is the reputation of the comy. It is said that there is practically no other organization in the state of New York to depend on the business fits to be paid after life time that has such privileges of operating free of state supervision as the Burial Associations. Associations Involved The Burial Associations involved are the Harrison Burial Association and the Virginia Mutual Burial Association, of Norfolk, the United Burial Association, of Portsmouth and the Wilson Burial Association, of Berkley. Their offsetting contention is that as they have never failed to live up to the provisions of the policies issued there is not sufficient ground for their being compelled to comply with the insurance laws. They also claim that the result of professional jealousy. Practically all of the policy holders of the Burial Associations are colored people, numbering more than 20,000 it is estimated. It is said that no effort has ever been made to extend this business to white people. Attorney W. I. Davis, colored of Norfolk, represented the Tidewater Licensed Embalmers Association and the law firms of Walcott, Lankford and Kerr, and Bowden, Roper and Sands represented the Burial Associations. Commissioner Button indicated that the Burial societies will be deceived and so much will have to surrender to state supervision. News and Advertisements of City of Portsmouth and Vicinity MRS.

C.—Plans for a Colored Institutional Church Training School to be located in this city are developing into a reality under the leadership of the Rev. T. W. Thurston. The school as planned by Rev. Thurston and his associates will give instruction in the various vocations so as to prepare its students for a life of usefulness in material things, but it will lay great emphasis upon the religious life of the people. In fact, the element in the training schools is to be sure that it is in most of the industrial schools of the race, as it is the conviction of thepromptor and originator of the enterprise that the soul is worth more than the body and that proper emphasis upon the spirit-life will go far toward solving the race and industrial problems of the country.

On the advisory board are: Messers C. A. Johnson president, Farmers Banking and Trust Company; M. G. Mann, vice-president and cashier, First National Bank; S. S. Nash, treasurer, Edgecomb Homestead and Loan Association; B. Mabry Hart, manufacturer; Dr. W. H. Goler, financial secretary; A. M. E. Zion Church; Professor D. C. Suggs, president, Livingstone College; Church Episcopal, the trustees are: Messers J. R. Reidge, W. C. Dunn, Nathan Williams, D. S. Hall, Julian Williams, Fountain Lloyd, Hillard Bonner, Jessie Anderson, H. H. Cherry, J. H. Pittman and J. R. Ervin, Rev. Josiah S. Williams, presiding elder; Rev. J. H. Love, presiding elder and Rev. T. Welton Thurston. The Daily Southerner of this city, has been outspoken in its endorsement of the movement and members of the advisory and expedition themselves in the following manager: "We the white members of the advisory board of the John C. Dancy Memorial Institutional Church which is to be erected in Tarboro, N. C., do heartily commend this wise and worthy enterprise to the people of the town and county, and the public in general as an institution deserving all the moral and financial support our people are able to give. It is not merely a church of worship with not only a Sunday school equipment but will also the relation of morality and religion all the occasions it will teach classes in child nursing and recreation of life. For instance, and laundrying, not from a memorial point of view, but from a moral and religious point of view of being able to render worthwhile service. It will also supervise social and recreational activities under religious leadership and in wholesome atmosphere. It is well known that there are two colored people in the county to every white person, and it is also well known that the moral and religious life of the colored people have been sadly neglected, and that few strong religious leaders have been developed among them. This institutional church will have for its main purpose developing of strong Christian character and religious leadership. Our moral and religious life is greatly affected by theirs and is part of our task. Therefore we not only do not hesitate to comment this esteem praise to our people, but heartily recommend it to them for their serious consideration and wholehearted support. (Signed): C. A.

IGHT, Silky Hair? Inter From Annie Lorita Frazier, Opera Star Now in the South ANNIE LORITA FRAZIER VINCENNES AVE. Chicago, Ill. September 22, 1902. As an opera singer I hair to portray ant characters in a season. One of constant ports in my make-up is the of my hair. So do this successfully away that I have long, straight, and wr. I must also keep my hair in the possible; I have tried many hair preparations for hair Dressing to be the finest of not only makes my hair easy to dress, it long, straight, smooth and and that after using Pluko my hair my & fix it. I believe that my hair singer since I started to issue it and never bottled with dandruff or may use this letter to tell others to Hair Dressing. Yours very truly Annie Lorita Frazier! ING men all over the country. Pluko is hair. Pluko prevents dandruff. Pluko keeps your hair from break- it easy to brush and dress your in today. The difference in the you. Forthose who choose a 25c Hair Dressing there is an amber colored Pluko packed in the big green cans for 25c stores Everywhere The X. M. C. A., the Community Service and every other legitimate boys club movement in the city should be given every possible encouragement. Our people could take some very valuable lessons from the activities of the white business men's organizations towards conserving the stamina and morality of the American white boy. Our business men and others equally responsible seem to have lost sight of the boy problem as far as the boys of their own group are concerned. --- Rev. Bowling hit the bootlegging business squarely between the eyes when he charged that it is behind all of the illegal manufacture and sale of liquor and violations of law growing out of it. The eighteenth amendment with its Volstead act reinforcement is not sufficient to curb to any great extent the consumption of liquor in this country. It has curbed the legal manufacture and sale of it. But of what use is a constitutional amendment unless public sentiment is behind it to enforce it? When this country permitted the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to lapse into disuse, allowing states to violate them with impunity, it was storing up trouble for the eighteenth amendment, which has made bootlegging one of the most prosperous of American industries. It is encouraging to see the Virginia-Pilot and other influential Southern papers approve in the most part the report of the committee of twelve that investigated the causes of the Chicago race riot. This report will in all probability be taken by other American cities as an authority in their efforts at satisfactory race adjustments. The Southern papers do not, of course, agree with the committee's disapproval of segregation, but when the South comes to understand and appreciate the real objection to segregation the recommendations of the Chicago committee will not be so much at variance with the Southern viewpoint. To the Negro whether it is in a Northern or Southern city, segregation means isolation from sanitary conveniences, streets not improved at all or poorly im proved, inadequate transportation facilities, poor fire protection, high rents, exhorbitant prices for property and a hundred other hindrances to comfortable living. THE DEAD CONGRESS The Sixty-seventh Congress is dead. Many of its members will try to come to life again in the November elections. It was a Republican Congress concerned, it was an utter failure. It side-tracked the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, it juggled with the Librarian in its membership. As far as we are Loan, it failed to dispose of the case of Lieutenant H. O. Flipper, which has been hanging fire in committee for many years, and it was called upon to confirm three Negro appointments by the President and confirmed but two. As far as the Negro people are concerned, it was the most hypocritical and unsatisfactory Congress in the history of the Republican party. It is a case of like President; like Congress. Until we have a President with a larger outlook on National and party policy, we shall not have a Congress to do so. Perhaps political conditions will be better for us when we learn to vote the way our interests lie, and not the way our prejudices lead us. We ought to be for those who are for us and opposed to those who are against us, but we so seldom are. Experience is a hard task master, but, from the political viewpoint, he has not taught the Negro people very much in the last fifty years. MORE SCHOOL HOUSING It is of the greatest importance to the Negro people of Norfolk that they have more school house space. The overcrowding which the children are now subjected to does not make for the best results in mental training nor the proper health of the children. The school authorities are as much alive to these facts as the parents of the children, and just as desirous that existing conditions shall be remedied. Not only in Norfolk, however, but in all parts of the country, shortage in housing of all sorts, including school housing, has been made possible by the high cost of building materials and of labor. The high price of building materials and labor was brought about by World War exactions, which those concerned, doggedly refuse to modify in the least. Housing operations, therefore, for all purposes, have not been sufficiently active to keep pace with the increase of the population and the consequent demand for housing. It is very gratifying, in the face of prevailing conditions, to learn that we are soon to have one of the largest school buildings in Norfolk. We have the assurance both from the School Board and architect Mitchell. The proposed new school will have about seventy class rooms provided with accommodations for elementary, trade and high school classes, and an auditorium. We are all grateful that such relief is coming and shall be very thankful when the new school shall be ready for occupancy. RULING THE HAITIANS It is very interesting news we have from Washington, as showing our complete overlordship of the people of Haiti, whose Government is a member of the League of Nations, that our Government, through the State Department, is perfecting plans to send special representatives to Haiti for the purpose of studying economic and sanitary conditions and educational system in the Island. It is said that an outstanding Negro educator, and perhaps a successful business man and physician with probably a lawyer to revise the Napoleonic code, which is the law of the Island, will be sent over by our Government. This is all very interesting and of the highest importance. It dispels any idea whatever that may have existed in the minds of the Haitians themselves that any of their/independence achieved by Toussaint L Overture and Jeans Jacques Dessalines remain to them. Who is responsible for this destruction of Haitian independence? Haitian Statesmen of course; they squandered the public revenues and fought among themselves and went into debt with foreign bankers, and thus weakened the national spirit and strength. Of course, the United States makes pretense that our Government is only in Haiti for the benefit of the Haitians, and will get out as soon as it has put Haitian affairs in proper shape and the Haitian people are prepared and ready to take over and direct their own affairs. How long will all this take? It has been more than twenty years since we took overlordship of Cuba and the Philippine Islands in much the same way, and for the same purpose that, we have taken over the Governments of Cuba and the Philippines to their people as we were in the beginning. It is possible that the Haitians may have less of freedom with the going and the coming of the years than a return of their Government to them. Of truth, Nations cannot eat their pudding and have it any more than individuals. More is the pity. A DETERMINED PROTEST The spirit actuating the group of colored Republicans, who, being refused recognition by the party organization that has the ear of the administration, formed an independent organization and placed an opposition ticket in the field, will be viewed with the broadest, sympathy and interest by not only all self-respecting Negroes, but many fair-minded white people. There is something deeper and more fundamental than the mere fancy of running for office behind the action of the Richmond Convention, for none of the nominees entertain the slightest expectation of being elected. It is the God-given right to protest in the most emphatic manner against injustice, and against the obvious intention of a group of men to place a humiliating proscription upon another group of men, which actuated the colored Republicans in doing the only thing that self-respecting men of any race could do. In all decent and orderly bodies of society minorities are respected and accorded some degree of recognition. In the present form of the accredited Republican organization in Virginia the Negro could expect at best a minority recognition. To refuse even that seems to be the determination of the party which designates itself, "illy-white," and arbitrarily reads the most intelligent and respectable colored voter out of the party. In doing this it not only violates the rules of the national party organization but repudiates the very principles upon which the party was founded. It is in contrast to this political outlawry that the colored group that met in Richmond reaffirms its allegiance to the principles of the Republican party, and stands before the people of Virginia with its self-respect preserved and a well-founded confidence that a large portion of a fair-minded electorate will believe in the justice of its cause. The Richmond convention nominated for office as its typical exponent a man of the highest character and worth. Col. Lewis, who received the nomination for United States Senator, is a splendid type of citizen—a successful business man, permanently identified with the best interests of his city, and a Christian gentleman. He will command the respect of the people of the state. Sane, conservative, seasoned by experience and deeply in earnest he should be able to make the protest not only emphatic but impressive. Claude McKay, Poet Arrives In London London.—(Crusader Service)— Claude McKay, the Jamaican poet whose poems have stirred millions of colored people throughout the world, arrived in London to-day on Briefs and Spices (BY S. J. C.) Clivilization: Something the world is working on but hasn't perfected yet. Western women would taboo long skirts, says a news item. Eastern women, we note, are silent—but silence gives consent. The appeal to make fire prevention week a success appears to be a wasted effort. Coal strikers accomplished that long ago. One reason why the family conversation is dull now is because a big sister looks so sharp. Its all right to rave about seniority rights but every man knows just how far they go in his household. The chief trouble with the "Hootch" situation in Harlem seems to be that when the New York Age exposes one scheme the bootleggers inaugurate another. * * * * Siki's victory in ring starts Paris craze for black clothes—headline.

CONSCIENCE The still small voice is about to speak, Miss Autumn clad in brownish hue, Will soon speed past prepared to seek, Whatever solace may fall due. Then wintry winds play whistling rhyme, That bespeak dull winter's sulky gloom, With Jack Frost ripe and in his prime, And snow clouds hangin' 'round the moon. We hope Mr. Winter you'll take your time; Let by-gone days and autumn chill, Repair the wrecks of changin' clime, Before you come. We hope you will. Scissored LESSONS FROM THE CHICAGO RIOT The Chicago race riots of three years ago, which resulted in the deaths of thirty-eight persons and injuries to more than five hundred, led to probably the most comprehensive study of the urban race problem that has yet been undertaken. The report of a committee of twelve—six from each race—appointed by Governor Lowden, has just been published, and the findings deserve careful study, for in its inquiry into the Chicago situation the committee addressed itself to a problem that, in one form or another, confronts every city in the United States. In Chicago the problem came to a head when the World War brought on a hegira of Negroes from the South to the industrial centers of the North, where they saw visions of greater pay and greater personal freedom. Not only Chicago, but St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit, Cleveland and other centers were suddenly brought face to face with the task of caring for these immigrants from South of the Ohio and the Potomac. Chicago's Negro population in 1910 constituted but two per cent of the total; ten years earlier it was only per cent. With this growth came an expansion of Negro residential areas and a greater intermingling between the races. From these ill-adjusted contacts grew the shameful series of outrages that set apart the Chicago riots of 1919 from all the race riots that preceded or followed. With the committee's recommendations, in the main, the best Southern opinion cannot fail to be in accord. Recognizing the importance of housing in dealing with the race problem, it advocates more stringent sanitary regulations, and the condemnation of houses unfit for self-respectig human habitation. Of this type of houses the cities of the South have their full share. While the expansion of Negro residential districts will always be a matter of concern, the problem can be met by the adoption of practical programs, through the co-operation of banks, real estate men and business organizations of both races. The committee recommends, among other things, the promulgation of other regulations added to disguise the formation among both races of societies that foster race antagonism. The appositiveness of this piece of advice should nowhere be better appreciated than in those sections of the South where sheeted and masked organizations have come into being seemingly for the purpose of keeping racial contacts raw. With a few of the committee's recommendations the Southern States at least, must remain at variance. The South cannot subscribe to the committee's denunciation of segregation as "imprecial and certain to accentuate friction." Nor can it believe that as far as the South is concerned, an intermingling in rest urants and theaters will help to preserve the harmonious relations that leaders of both races realize. But few facts of different doactic bar the South from approving the thoroughness with which the twelve Chicagos went into a difficult matter and the soundness of the main body of conclusions which resulted from their investigation.—Virginian-Pilot. his way to the continent. Mr. McKay has been in England before and is well-known in radical circles here. He states that he will remain only a few days in London, going on to the continent almost immediately, from where he will send occasional news despatches to the "Crusader Service" on European affairs and politics as they effect the colored races of the world. Community Service The Mothers' Club entertained the members of the organization with a reception Wednesday night at the Center.

His store is located at the corner of 'burch street and Highland avenue. His specials appear in this paper each week and will pay any one to look them up before shopping. T. B. Association Reports Progress According to a statement issued by the Virginia Tuberculosis Association twenty-nine counties are organized for permanent tuberculosis work in the state.

French Officers Killed In Syrian Uprising Cairo: (Crusader Service)—Two French officers were killed in the uprising in "French" Syria, when revolutionists attacked the automobile of Islim Pasha, Governor of Hauran, in "French" Syria and a tool of the French imperialists. Islam Pasha was wounded in the leg and his chauffer and Secretary were injured. In the meantime, Kemal Pasha, the leader of the Turkish Nationalists and the most prominent figure in the Moslem world today, has sent the British Government an ultimatum demanding the immediate evacuation of Turkish Thrace by their Greek tools and the turning over of that territory to the Turks at once. Proof Arising That Greeks Fired Smyrna New York—(Crusader Service)—The first details of the burning of Symna by the retreating Greeks were brought to New York by passengers on the "Constantinople" which arrived at Pier 22, Brooklyn, last week, with 1,074 on board. These passengers said that the soldiers as well as the civilians confirmed the report that the central part of the town of Symna, the oldest town with chiefly of woods fired by the Armenian and Greek inhabitants before they fled so that the Turks should not enjoy the property they were forced to leave behind them.

Borah of Idaho declared in an address before the Press Club of Chicago. He declared that the situation was the result of imperialistic politics and intrigue, and said he was in favor of telling England and France that their politics were condemned by the conscience of the Christian world, and that "you shall find no sympathy or succor in this quarter of the globe." After the World War, the Senator charged, "the white race, the Christian race, began to shoot down and kill and murder the people of Syria and Mesopotamia and Egypt and India, and make ready to exploit their oil fields and their natural wealth. He declared it was a "story of treachery nowhere surpassed in the history of wars" after promises of liberty and independenc. HUNTERSVILLE, VA.

L. Whitehead) Lynchburg, Va. Oct. 7.—In a hard fought and thrilling game, played in red mud from four to six inches deep, St. Paul for the second consecutive year defeated Virginia Seminary and College by the score of 6 to 0. 850 persons witnessed the youthful struggle between the mighty, agile, alert, and tenacious Orange and Black and Blue/ and White machines for gridiron victory. Though defeated the playing team, be entitled, nor should her tactics be criticized, nor should excessive credit be given the victor. The homes boys played hard, scientific football and fought the pigskin battle to a finish; but the "break" which proved favorable to St. Paul caused the downfall of the Dragons. St. Paul, however, played a great defensive game, and at the crucial moment exhibited an impregnable line, and back field which never lost sight of the ball. Resorts 10 Arena After straight football for nearly two periods, Virginia Seminary resorted to the aerial attack. Cuffee intercepted a beautiful forward pass on his 19 yard line and galloped 51 yards for the first and only touchdown, and the score which gave St. Paul a hard carned victory. Tyler made a good throw, but St. Paul clever, quick and baffling interference against the offensive play, and the obusive Cuffee's hands proved a depository for the oval. Jordan accepted the task of pursuing Cuffee. He followed him to Seminary's 17½ yard line, and there attempting a flying tackle, which merely culminated in a spectacular finish for the old veteran, Rev. Jordan Cuffee's long run featured the game, and this play was a hilarious moment for the St. Paul camp. St. Paul Threatened Each act revealed great football. Seminary threatened St. Paul's goal twice in the first period, twice in the second, three times in the third and twice in the fourth; but each time when in the shadow of the goal, St. Paul's clever spoiled the loud bones of the heavy outfit. Once Seminary reached St. Paul's 1½ yard line with 3rd and four, but here St. Paul's stalwart linemen ripped the locals' line to pieces, while the former's backs tore through, broke up the formations throwing the opponents for a loss of six yards on the two downs. Seminary is credited with eleven first down to St. Paul's three. Seminary completed three out of nine forward passes, while St. Paul completed two out of six. The game was one of the best and cleanest ever seen on Seminary Field. The Line-up: St. Paul Position Va. Seminary Maddux L. E. Hoyle Coleman L. T. Jordan Vaughan L. G. Moore, J. Rivers (Capt) C.

COLLEGE FIRST FOR UNION UNIVERSITY Hovey Field To Be Scene Of Hard Gridiron Battle When Carolinians Meet Virginians At Richmond. Richmond, Va.—The Virginia Union University football team will begin what is believed to be a successful football season Friday, Oct. 13 when it will face A. & T. College eleven. The red and steel line plungers, end runners, and football generals have already listed this game's Uncle Seed. Even though the Greensboro aggregation has many followers in the local communities who expect great things out of it, it is the firm belief at Union that Coach Martin's championship team will not yield a hair's breadth. Out of the two hundred or more Unionites who went out for the squad, about fifty-three have stuck. Competition is so keen among this number that it is hardly possible to say who the members of the first eleven will be, in fact, all are so good that a first eleven may not be picked until the time comes to select the All American team. The IA is the team that is supposed, however, that the starters in this initial game of the season may be: Smith, center; Lightfoot and Rooks, Guards; Hank and Johnson, tackles; Hucles and Jackson, ends; Boffman, Jackson, Mallory and McDonald, backs. Aeolians Will Clash With Shaw, Nov. 13th Independents To Meet College Varsity In A Season Classic On Local Gridiron. During the absence of captain Jackson, the Acolians manifested the sama spirit, and enthusiastic pep, under the charge of Johnson as they did when the captain was directing their course. Much hard work is indulged in, and those having charge of the coaching are fast whipping the aggregation into form. Jackson and Johnson with advice of the various players are giving the squad the much needed work. The team is worked up to the stage where the boys are hollering for more when the workout is called off. This shows that they are hitting the proper stride towards top form. Captain Jackson says, he wants his squad in the pink of condition when they meet their old foes, the N. A. C.'s. Mr. James Offers Advice. Mr. James, the executive secretary of the local "Y" has voluntarily offered his services to the club. It is obvious that the team will profit by his advice. Mr. James is formerly of Bates College (white) of Lewiston, Maine, and is an exceptionally good all round athlete. He held down the right wing position for three years on Bates' Varsity. He is also in charge of training of the High School boys. Team Hits The Road. Aeolians, the pride of Norfolk's football loving fans, will hit the road Monday, Oct 16th, for Richmond, where they will meet the mighty Adelphia, the victors over the Norfolk Athletic Club last season. All the Aeolians are determined to hold these speedy grid耐iors to a standstill. The captain has confidence in his pigskin jugglers. Other games are expected on the road in the near future. Games Assumed. The atheletic offence of the Aeolian athletic club is the working overtime in order to bring about something tangible in the nature of games. The contract has been received from Shaw University, and is pending the signature₂ of the Aeolians. The club intends making this the football classic of the season for independent teams. The coming of Shaw University, on Nov. 13, 1922, is the first time this feat has been accomplished by an independent club, since 1918, when the former Liberty club brought Union here. No dates of the Aeolians are definitely closed excepting the 16th of October and the 13th of Nov. All desiring dates may secure them. V. N. & I. I.

The schedule for the season is at follows: at home, October Local Our UNION-MOREHOUSE CLASH HERE NOV. 6TH Richmond College Will Have Holiday For The Big Game; A Galu Time In Norfolk For Visitors Is Planned.
