Frellinghuysen, Republican, of New Jersey, a Federal Commission on Lynching, composed of five commissioners appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, would be established. This commission would inquire into the subject of lynchings in the United States over a period of one year, and report thereon to the President and to the Congress. It would have power to subpoena witnesses and compel them to testify in the aid of any United States Court. This general inquiry would provide Congress with official information upon which to base legislation upon lynchings. Section 2 of the resolution which is the most salient and sets forth the purpose-of the commission is as follows. "Sec. 2. That for the purpose of advising and providing information for Congress in matters of legislation which will prevent lynching, and insure to all persons the equal protection of the laws and provide for the better enforcement of our treaties relating to the protection of aliens, the Commission shall conduct a general inquiry into the subject of lynchings in the United States, including the number, occurring, the causes thereof, the adequacy of methods now used, prevent lynchings, and the advisability of additional legislative and administrative remedies for their avoidance. The Commission shall report on them to the Congress and to the President at such times as it deems advisable and shall make to the Congress and to the President a final report not later than one year after the passage of this resolution." The other sections prescribe the power of the commission in-securing evidence, the employment of aides and the general expense for its operation. MR. J. E. KELLY IS FULLY EXONORATED Mr. J. E. Kelley, assistant manager of the Attucks theatre who was arrested the day last week upon charges of embezzlement in connection with the mysterious disappearance of funds belonging to the theatre, was fully exonerated in police court when the case came up for a hearing, and his court vindication has been since amplified by a statement given to the Journal and Guide by Mr. Robt. Levy, owner of the theatre, who came down from New York to investigate the matter. "Mr. Kelley was in no way responsible for the disappearance of the money," said Mr. Levy. "What is conclusive. I am very sorry that the episode occurred to him this embarrassment, and very glad of this opportunity, let the public know that the utmost confidence in honesty and integrity."

DEPT. OF JUSTICE AGENTS INVESTIGATING EASON ASSASSINATION New York, N. Y.-Agents of the Department of Justice have begun an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the assassination of Dr. J. W. H. Eason at New Orleans on New Year's Day, just as he was leaving a meeting in which he had spoken-denouncing Garvey. Dr. Eason was to be the government's chief witness against Marcus Garvey and other officials of the defunct Black Stair Line when the case comes up for court, according to a attorney by Assistant United States Attorney Maxwell S. Mattuck. Prosecutor Mattuck said that reports had come to him indicating an effort on the part of certain people to scare government witnesses by hints to deal out to others the same medicine handed to Eason. Case Will Be Heard February 5 New York, N. Y.—The case of Marcus Garvey and other officials of the black Star Lipo has been set for trial. February b. it is alleged that $1,000,000 of the stock of this steamship line was sold to credulous persons on facts that warrant the charges of fraud. The charges are bolstered by the fact of advertisements inserted in the Negro World booking passages on the steamship "Phyllis Wheatly" when no such existed, it is claimed. Others who are to face the charges with Garvey are Orlando M. Thompson, vice-president; Eile Garcia, secretary, and George Tobias, treasurer. Lively Interest In Ad Contest Didn't Know Until Now There Were So Many Good Proofreaders In Town. The Journal and Guide tested the proof-reading ability and ad reading interest of its readers last week when we offered two prizes for finding three misspelled words in a group of Church street advertisements. Our mail Saturday and Monday was full of answers. As usual the early bird caught the worm. There were many correct answers, but the conditions of the contest are that the prizes go to the FIRST correct, or nearest correct answers received. It happened that last week Miss Tiahill had a 1511 Outten street and Mrs. Marie Lomax, of 600 Main street, arrived first, in the order named, and won the prizes. Same prizes offered again this week.

Marke, of Sierra Leone, West Africa, and William H. Sherrell, of Ohio, representing the Universal Negro Improvement Association, will address a mass meeting at Bank Street Baptist Church Friday night, January 26th.

The mass meeting is to be held under the auspices of the local branch of the U. N. I. A. More High Schools If Demand For Them Raleigh, N. C.-Negro children, as a rule, do not remain in school long enough to complete the elementary grades. As a result of this there are only three standard public high schools for Negroes in the state, according to Dr. E. C. Brooks, State Superintendent of Public Instruction. The superindendent recommends the state's community service which has operated the moving picture machine, and advises that the greater stress be placed on school organization and better instruction in the class room. Alpha Phi Alpha Has A Large Convention St. Louis, Mo.—Nothing more vividly portrayed the educational "ogress of the American Negro tha... the appearance in St. Louis, Mo., of the more than 300 representatives of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity from 60 of the leading colleges and universities in the United States in attendance upon the fifteenth annual convention of their Fraternity, which was held during the days, December 27th to 31st, inclusive, 1922. The occasion afforded the first opportunity for the citizens to come to college with such large numbers of young Negro college men from all parts of the country and get an idea of just what place a fraternity occupies in their college life. The Epsilon-Lambda, graduate chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha located at St. Louis, and the citizens of St. Louis, saw to it that every delegate and visiting member of the Alpha Phi Alpha was comfortably situated throughout the period of the convention. The opening session of the convention was held Wednesday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock, at the St. Louis headquarters, Pine Street Branch Y M. C. A. with over three hundred fellow students of the Fraternity from the various colleges and universities in America stretching from Harvard, Boston University, and Yale, on the New England Coast to the University of California, on the Pacific Coast, and from the University of Miami, Florida and Minnesota to the Great Lakes Atlanta University and Morehouse College in the South. The business of the convention was successfully handled under the direction of the national officers of the fraternity: Siméon S. Booker, president; Dr. J. H. Hilburn, first vicepresident; Raymond P. Alexander, second vice-president; Norman L. McGhee, secretary; Dr. Homer Cooper, treasurer, and Carl J. Murphy, editor of the official organ, "The Sphinx." NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1923 55,868 COLORED PEOPLE ON THE CITY OF MONTVILLE Home Owners, Tax Payers, and Thrifty and Sub (until Citizens Added to Population By The Present Announcement. LARGE TERRITORY FOR HOME EXPANSION When Norfolk annexed the new territory January 1, her colored population increased by 8,815 persons, according to the latest census check by the city's Bureau of Health. This number represents nearly one-third of the total increase through annexation. Although the white population increased three times as great as the colored, the ratio between the population of the two races in the city did not materially change. Norfolk's Negro population numbers 55,868 persons. It is larger than that of any Virginia city, being in comparison with Richmond's 1920 census, a few hundred greater than the colored population of that city. It is more than double that of the city of Portsmouth. The colored settlements taken in in the annexation with their population in Albany, Campotillo section, 2,000; Cottage Heights, Bruce Park, Douglas Park section, 3,225; Logan Park, Titustown, North Titustown, 2,490; Ocean View section, 100; scattered, including Boulevard Terrace, 790. The real gain to Norfolk through the addition of these Negro settlements far transcends that of mere numbers. Each one of these sections is the outgrowth of the ambition of race members for home ownership. Under the urge to own their own homes, the families moved into them when they were cheap country property, and it may be safely said that 75 per cent of the families are home owners of their homes, taxable citizens and hard working people which make their economic value to the city incompatible. Each settlement is dotted with its own business houses, such as small stores and shops. Their next merchant's license will be purchased from the Norfolk city government. They are also heavy consumers of supplies purchased in this city. Many of the housese are beautiful and pretentious, some of them occupy two and three lots and with some public improvements which will eventually be added under the city administration, property values there are sure to rise. Norfolk's highest population now has the abundance of city territory for expansion and with the coming and going of the years, when the Greater City's transportation arteries shall traverse the entire corporate limits, it is not too visionary to predict that the dilapidated and crowded tenements in the city's alleys will give away to beautiful and substantial homes in the newly annexed area. Howard Challenges The N. A. A. C. P. Would Debate The Question As To Whether Or. Not He Helped Defeat Dyer Bill. Perry W.

"2. That, under the present rules of the Senate, the Republicans could have passed this bill in the face of the Democratic filibuster. 3.

ELIJAH HICKS Big Crowd Greets Dr. Morris At Old Church Hundreds Shake His Hand After Listening To One Of His Eloquent Sermons. A large crowd ascertained at Bank Street Baptist Church Sunday morning to greet the ex-pastor, RevChas. Satchell Morris, who delivered an eloquent and impressive sermon. Dr. Morris in a profound and scholarly discourse dwell upon the "Plan of Salvation". His expositions were the acme of simplicity. He scored the modernist who might doubt the duality of the God-head, and in a logical sequence of statements set out convincing testimony of the ability of God the Pathway and the Son. He carried his hearts thru a beautiful array of Biblical facts, dating from before Creation to the Resurrection to substantiate the Christian faith in the Holy Trinity.

Citizens Plan For A Colored Hospital Greensboro, N. C.—A number of representative citizens met in Mount Sinai Baptist Church, Friday night, to discuss the present hospital conditions in the community and arrange to better these conditions in the near future. It was brought out during the meeting that other cities in the state had good institutions for the sick of the race and there was no reason for a recsnbor to lag behind, in this respect. The present private hospital is inadequate and although it has treated four hundred and seventy-nine patients/since opening in 1917, the time has come for a larger and better equipped institution. Travelers Aid Correction In an article printed in last week's issue of this paper it was stated that the Colored Branch Travelers Aid had realized $887 in its campaign for $1,500 to that date. This was an error caused by a mix-up in figures in the copy. No such amount has been raised. The figures should have read $89.70, which was the actual amount raised up to that date. The drive is still in progress and to date $177.80 has been raised. This amount being a long way from the desired goal, the committee is appealing to churches and other organizations to send in donations. OUT OF TOWN CALLER Mr. Grover C. Grant, State Supervisor, American Woodmen, was in town this week and while here he called at the Guide office to pay his respects. Mr. Grant was in the city on business for the Woodmen.

A. J. Strong, vice president and treasurer: "The possession of money: saved by self-denial and habits; thrift not only increases one's standing, but adds to one's standing at the bank and in the community. It is a tangible evidence of character, and character is the basis of credit, without which one cannot go very far in life." The colored school children of the city have a savings system which is also increasing in volume. While getting useful book knowledge they are being taught also the fundamental habit of thrift, which is finding expression in many instances of self-help on the part of pupils leaving the grades and high school for further studies.

Secretary That The Dyer Bill Would Not Be Abandoned On Terms Of Filibusterers. Washington, D. C.—Senator Henry Cotton Lodge, in a letter addressed to James Weldon Johnson under date of December 4, denies that he ever promised Mr. Johnson that the Dyer Bill would not be abandoned on the terms of the filibusterers as was given out to the Negro press in news releases over the signature of Mr. Johnson. ANSWER TO TELEGRAM The letter of Mr. Lodge was in reply to a telegram from Mr. Johnson, in which he asked for verification of the bill, and that the Republians in canons had decided to abandon efforts to have the Dyer antilynching bill made the unfinished business of the Senate on account of the Democratic filibuster. He stated that Senator Lodge had told him that the bill would not be abandoned. In his reply the Massachusetts Senator put Mr. Johnson in the category with Ananias. The telegram of James Weldon Johnson, sent to Senator Lodge on December 3, is as follows: "In my talk with you Saturday morning regarding Dyer anti-lynching bill I urged that measure be not abandoned on terms of Democratic filibusterers even though exigencies required that it be laid aside for present. You said to me bill would not be abandoned on terms laid down by filibusterers. Morning papers state that at caucus yesterday it was decided that bill be permitted to be held in court not brought un again between now and March fourth. Will you please let me know if newspaper reports are correct." "NEVER BAID ANYTHING OF KIND." Replying on December 4, Senator Lodge emphatically denied that he made any such statement as attributed to him by Mr. Johnson. His letter is as follows: "I received your telegram of last evening. I do not know what you mean by saying that I said to you in our conversation that 'the bill would not be abandoned on terms of the kind. I never mentioned terms to you in any way. There was no question of what the bill would be said aside on kept before the Senate. There was no question of terms at all. I explained to you that the bill was continued until March 4th, that it was equally impossible to change the rules, and that the only question that the conference would decide was whether they would give up all business of the session—put aside ships and ship extensions of credits bill and all the supply bills, and in addition a large number of confirmations—or whether they would withdraw the Dyer bill and not press it during the coming session, which begins today. The conference agreed not to press the bill further and instructed me to say precisely what I said in the newspaper report. I wish to repeat to you that I did not mention about terms because nothing of that sort arose, and the words you attribute to me were never uttered by me. Nothing of that sort was said."

Portsmouth and vicinity were shocked to hear of the death of Benjamin: Franklin Elliott, a late long resident here and a widely known contractor. Mr. Elliott, formerly lived on Stonewall street, from where he went to Pennsylvania in September, where he pursued his work under more advantageous conditions and with marked success. When he left this city, his great host of friends and business associates wished well, and saw in his going the departure of one whom everyone liked and respected. He was capable and efficient builder, and a citizen whom the community could ill afford to lose. Those who knew him well called him "B. F., and by that familiar and friendly name they will always speak and think of him. To most to whom the news came his death was unbelievable, for he was getting along so well according to the reports that came to the city about him now and then. He was taken suddenly ill Sunday, December 31, 1922, and a harrassing week he died on the 5th of January. His wife was with him when he was stricken, and at his bedside when the end came.

Portsmouth, Virginia: REPUBLICANS ACTIVE FOR 1924 CAMPAIGN Old Guard Stirring For 1924 Election Would Like Hays To Run Things. Washington, D. C., Jan.-Political circles have been all agog over the report that Republican party leaders, anticipating an early Democratic of defensive looking to victory in the 1924 presidential election, are quietly seeking a successor to John T. Adams, chairman of the Republican National Committee, who plans to retire from active politics. It was reported that President Harding and others want Will H. Hayes, who managed the last presidential campaign, to run things in 1924. Mr. Hays, however, is under contract with the motion picture producers until March 1925. It was also stated that Attorney General Harry Jarvis' government might resign to become the head of the National committee and to engage in the private practice of the law. But these rumors were set at rest for the present when George B. Lockwood, secretary of the National Committee, announced that Mr. Adams is not even thinking about resigning and that he would very probably be in charge of party affairs as chairman until the reorganization of the committee takes place at the National Convention in 1924. Mr. Daughery's office stated that the Attorney General has no intention whatever of resigning for any purpose. eye of Christ?"

Eason Well Known Here Staunch Garvey Foe Assinated In New Orleans; Spoke Here Last Spring. Dr. J. W. H. Eason, one time leader of the American Forces of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and more recently a bitter foe of Marcus Garvey, who was assassinated in New Orleans, La., last week just as he was leaving a meeting in which he had denounced Garvey, his former chief; and the methods of the U. N. I. A., was well known in this city, having made several addresses here last spring in interest of the Garvey movement. He was an orator of ability and large crowds heard him at the Booker T. Washington high school, Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church and other places in this vicinity. Dr. Eason was one of the most outstanding American Negroes drawn into the Garvey movement. Being a brilliant orator his talents drew many followers into the organization and caused him rapid advancement. At the Third International Convention of the U. N. I. A. at New York last August Garvey and Eason had a bitter disagreement which resulted in the two coming to blows on the platform. Garvey preferred counter charges against each other. The U. N. I. A. sustained Garvey and expelled Eason. He then organized the Universal Negro Alliance, and went about the country denouncing his former chief from the same platforms where he once eulogized the provisional president of Africa. It was just as he was leaving one of such meetings in New Orleans that three men fired on him. Before his death he identified two Garvey leaders as his assailants. Dr. Eason died at Charity Hospital the Friday following the shooting and was buried at Elizabeth, N. J., the following Tuesday. He was 36 years of age, a native of North Carolina and graduated in the ministry from Livingstone College, Salisbury, N. C. He pastored two prominent churches of the A. M. E. Zion connection in Philadelphia before allying himself with the African movement. PLYMOUTH, N. C. Miss Martha A. Lee, of Edenton spent the holidays as the guest of her sister Mrs. J. D.

Hampton, Va., Jan—Twenty-one colored women, representing twenty-one schools in eleven States, recently spent three weeks in conference at Hampton Institute, where they studied problems connected with the care of young people in boarding schools. In this group there were three deans of women, eight matrons of girls' dormitories, one preceptress of boys' dormitory, five matrons of boarding departments, one laundry matron, and three assistant matrons. The subjects of the conference covered the entire range of the responsibilities of the matron in educational institutions. The central thought of the Hampton Institute conference was the physical, mental, moral and social development of the student and the part that dormitory life plays in this development. Dormitory management was considered from a business standpoint. Economy in purchase and in care of furnishings was emphasized. Methods of inventorying property and of securing insurance were explained. Business management of the foods department and of the dining rooms was discussed. Desirable correlations between the boarding department and the home-economics department, as well as with the school farm and THE STAR HAIR G A Wonderful Dresser a STAR HAIR GROWER Wonderful Dresser and Grower 1,000 Aents WANTED GOOD MONEY MADE 11 STAR HAIR GROWER Manufacturer P.

Every day in every way I am saving more and more of my pay. The Soviet Russian students have been burning the Almighty God in effigy; later on the students will be burned in the "fire that quenched never is." It will be calamity upon calamity if the Negro victims of the recent disastrous fire at New Bern not only lose their houses and household goods but have their land confiscated by the City Fathers, because it is desirable property, on pretense of devoting the land to parke and other purposes. The break in the Council of Premiers and the occupation of German territory by the French, for the purpose of enforcing the awful war reparations assessed against it, with the withdrawal of the American troops on the Rhine and the accented policy of the United States to have no part in the settlement of European political and economic questions, although we have billions of loaned money to safeguard, has all thrown Europe into an agony of fear that another war portends with the Moslem Turks and Soviet Russians ready to strike where it will be most effective for their interests and disastrous to the Christian Nations that may be cutting each other throats. Christianity has not failed, nor the Christian Church; but Christian kings and other rulers have failed, simply because they "have run madly after gain" in land grabbing and economic exploitation of the economic resources of others. They have weighed themselves in the balance and are found lacking in the "sound doctrines" essential to salvation. CHILD BURNED TO DEATH New Bern, N. C.—Charlie Harris the infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas Harris, was fatally burned and his aunt, Mrs. Hattie Hardison, was severely burned, in a fire that destroyed the Harris home. The fire started from the explosion of an oil stove, and the flames were beyond human control in a few minutes. Mrs. Ida Nugent Paey after spending the holidays in Louisville, Ky., with her sisters is again in the city. PAGE FOUR JANUARY 20, 1923 The black soldiers on the Rhine have been vindicated again; this time by Mr. Noyes, late American commissioner in the Rhineland, who writes Senator Borah that the "behavior of the colored troops was as good as that of any soldiers of any nation," which is about all that could be expected. Apropos of the oft repeated assertion that the Negro is given justice in the courts it is interesting to note that at New Bern, N. C., last week Judge Grady, presiding in superior court, sentenced two white men, who confessed to breaking into two Negroes' homes, to pay their victims $150 and leave the state. At the same term of court, the same judge sent a Negro to the penitentiary who was convicted of housebreaking. The question here raised is not whether the Negro was given justice, but whether the white men in a similar case did not escape justice. --- People who imagine that they need big salaries in order to build up an estate that will be a sufficient provision for their old age and the well being of their dependents, should learn of Mrs. Sarah Ross, of Middletown, N. Y., who died recently leaving an estate of $12,000 to her sister. Mrs. Ross was only a "negro service worker," going out by the day, but she lived nicely and managed to build up a good little estate. After all, it isn't the money you make, but the penny you save, that counts. If you don't need it at once, put the penny, the nickle, the dime or the dollar in the bank and it will be in easy reach when you need it most. ```markdown ``` It is with something more, than mere journalistic courtesy that the JOURNAL AND GUIDE welcomes to the field of race journalism the National Herald, which made its initial appearance in Norfolk last Saturday. The race needs all of the components and advocates that it can get and sustain, and here's hoping that our neighbor will find plenty to do and just and equitable reward for its labors. The Herald promises to be "sane, clean and intellectually conservative, but bold and outspoken where human rights are concerned," which is enough to commend it at once to public favor. --- Mrs. Frank Anthony Walke's resignation from the Travelers Aid work is a distinct loss to the colored department, to which Mrs. Walke gave much of her time and attention, in a most helpful and encouraging manner. Mrs. Walke is a conspicuous example of the large number of Southern white women who manifest a deep interest in the religious, moral and physical welfare of the colored people. Her numerous deeds of kindness have endeared her to the entire colored population of the city who do not begrudge her the relaxation she needs from some of her public activities, but who will greatly miss her wise and helpful counsel. --- We should have a strong Bureau of Negro Economics in the Federal Department of Labor and of Agriculture. There was a splendid beginning made in the Administration of President Wilson, with Dr. George E. Haynes in charge, in the Department of Labor, but the Bureau had its name changed to the Bureau of Conciliation and placed in charge of a Negro politician who has allowed it to fall away from what it was doing in a big way under Dr. Haynes. Dr. Scarborough wants to develop a strong Bureau in the Department of Agriculture and we hope he may be able to do so. Negro wage earners and farmers need special Government and State bureaus to protect and promote their interests, as white bureaucrats do not give such the time and attention and sympathetic interest they require. It is much that way with our schools which being separate should be looked after and over- looked, as they are in the District of Columbia, by men and women of the race. LAWLESS AMERICA AT WORK Those who have read the interesting stories of the horrors white people committed upon each other, some of whom are now on trial for their lives, in a condition of Invisible Empire rule in Moorhouse Parish, Louisiana, will be surprised that white folks could be so cruel to each other. Two victims, it has been shown in court, were whipped unmercifully and their limbs torn from their bodies, and the carcasses tied to weights and sunk in Lake Fouche. It is a gruesome bunch of stories about the outrages white folks have perpetrated upon each other, with invisible terror enveloping the communities like deadly mismatic vapors. We have to go back to the Protestant Reformation for a parallel for such doings. And then, down in Levy County Florida, a body of white citizens seeking for a convict charged with attempting an assault on a white woman, lynched three Negro men and two women, two white men being killed in the mix-up, and burned up the Negro town of Rosewood with the church, none of the persons done to death being in any way whatever connected with the allied assault. One report had it that 22 people were killed, but the news from the seat of trouble, after the second day, was suddenly suppressed, so that nothing has leaked out as to how the trouble terminated. o men and men being burned up and with the sins done to whatever and assault. People were the seat of day, was at nothing the trouble A LETTER A funny feeling crept 'er me last night. As I plundered thru my hope chest, I found a missive neatly penned That put me thru a test. Securely hidden underneath, That mass of bygone thrills, I cannot help but wonder how It made me have those chills. Ah, me, my memory long has fled, A clouded past is present play, The hopes that lived in vigor once, Have gone down in decay. I'm at a lost just what to say— My memory is a wee bit better: There 'were two it seems about that time; Scissored We must manufacture, we must become commercial as other races here have become, before we can ever think of solving the great race problem. God give us eyes to see our greatest allies as others have their needs. WILLIAM A. HEWLETT. East Camp, Hampton Roads, Va. Editor Journal and Guide, Sir: Now that the great drive is over, which had for its object the getting of funds with which to fight the most dreaded of diseases—tuberculosis, let us not suppose that our work is done, until another year goes at all, for in reality it has just begun. As to what the present campaign has been a successful one or not, should in no wise deter us from the determination formed to put over the program tuberculosis work calls for. Considering the vastness of field which the work involves and because of its supreme importance to the welfare of the human race, we should bend to its accomplishment with the And, then, down at Raleigh, N. C. M. M. Moore, a white farmer, has just been sentenced to a year at "rock breaking on the road." It appears that several days before the conviction Farmer J. L. Faircloth one night opened his door to be confronted by a hooded Klansman, whose voice he recognized as that of his neighbor Moore, who ordered him to follow him. Instead of obeying orders Mr. Faircloth drew his pistol and held Farmer Moore as his prisoner. Now he will have to pay for it by breaking rock on the road for a whole year. Why should such things as we have noted be in our great country? Why should there be an undercurrent of hate and lawless disregard for the rights of our neighbor? None of the troubles reported in our statement of the case could have happened if those concerned as avengers had left the whole business to the due processes of law and lawful authority, without which there can be no security for life and property, or for the future of our Republic. EUROPE AGONIZING IN DREAD OF WAR William Cooper long ago wrote that "war is a game which were their subjects wise, kings would not play at." But their subjects have not been wise and their kings have so overworked the war game that few of them remain in Europe to tell the tale, and the tendency is steadily to exterminate the whole breed of kings and their sort. Existing democracies, of which the United States, Brazil, France and Switzerland are the most notable, have been some improvement on kingly government, but they are far from perfect, in the essential of adequate protection of life and property, and the United States, judged by this standard, is the most imperfect of them all, and appears to be growing worse. Mob lawlessness and incendiarism are on the increase, having been allowed during the past fifty years to spread from the Southern States all over the United States, and from the murdering and burning of black folks and their property to that of alleged white folks, who do not know where they begin or end in their race types, in the long years of their try-alls and tribe-relations, from Adam and Eve to John and Susan Doe. Know thyself. Let others do the guessing. The ultimate consumer of hootch soon becomes an intimate friend of the undertaker. Even if the Watch on the Rhine has at last been wound up, The Hands Across the Sea are double crossed. According to the latest lynching statistics, Texas has copped first place in the common murder league. Have we a "National Dish?" asks a New York paper. Yes, it's name is hush. The Chicago judge who calls full love "moonshine love," seems void of the common knowledge of depreciation. Indications are that if the end of the world is near, as prophesied those who layed in a big supply of coal should worry. Thursday night December 28th, the First Baptist Church, of Salem, was packed from pit to dome with a surging mass of humanity; the occasion being the marriage of Miss Nellie Penick, the accomplished daughter of M. and Mrs. Alexander Penick, of Salem, and Mr. Frank Parker, a successful business man, of Washington, D.

Briefs and Spices A *LETTER* wish I knew which one wrote that letter. Scissored FRENCH NEGROES VINDICATED BY A GERMAN There is an interesting passage in the letter of P. B. Noyes, late American Commissioner in the Rhineland to Senator Borah—a letter in most part devoted to arguments in favor of withdrawing our soldiers at once from German soil. Incidentally Mr. Noyes, who has not shown in the past much liking for the French in their military activities, takes up the charges that their colored troops have been guilty of atrocities against the men among whom they have been accused since the occupation, and he declares that their accusations were nothing but German propaganda, designed to work upon the color prejudices supposed to exist in the United States. He reached this conclusion after a high German official in the Rhineland, at his request, had made a careful examination of every alleged atrocity committed by the African soldiers and had reported that in forty-three cases of alleged outrage of one sort or another there was no foundation of fact, that in four there had been much exaggeration, while only two, with possibly one more, were true as described in statements widely published. Mr. Noyes concludes that the behavior of the French colored troops was as good as that of any soldiers of any nation, though he is inclined to criticise as taceless their use in maintaining order among a white population.—New York Times Letters From The People A FUNDAMENTAL NEED Editor Journal and Guide Editor Journal and Guide. Sir: Is the American Negro's adjustment of the surface only? I appear to our mind, and that the race had placed banks, professional learning and millions of dollars in other properties, before all means of employment. We can never hope to solve the great Negro problem until we begin to open and operate places of employment for our educated girls and boys. We must have factories and produce things as other races in this country do, like the races that control the destiny of other races in this country. Negro orators yelled themselves out of the Negro offices telling us about education, until today we thousands of educated Negroes without any visible means of support. We must now therefore begin to become employers of our young Negroes as they leave the institutions of learning. We must employ our school graduates, or they will become useless. Idle cannot hope to survive unless we begin to provide for the needs of our people, this we should not expect other races to do for us in this age of our American advancement.

SALEM, VA. A Eulogy On The Late Dr. Wallace Delivered By Rev. R. H. Bowling At First Baptist Church Sunday Night. A great crowd packed the First Baptist Church Sunday night and listened to Rev. R. H. Bowling, the pastor, deliver an impressive eulogy on the life and works of the late pastor of First-Calvary Baptist Church, Rev. Percy Johnson Wallace. Dr. Bowling recounted the events in the life of Dr. Wallace, from his career when he was seeking a an education to his life's crowning achievement, the building of and paying for First Calvary. Said Rev. Bowling in part: "His was a life of great accomplishments, he secured for himself an academia and theological training, receiving the degree of Batcheler of Theology from Union University, Richmond, Va., and coming out in the class of 1920. He served for years unusually gifted and exegugete; he won worthily and wore the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity, conferred upon him by Virginia Theological Seminary. HELD FIVE CHARGS "He held five different pastorates in York County, Hanover County King William County, Va.; New York City and in Norfolk. In each case he left only to go to a larger field of usefulness and in each pastorate he labored faithfully with his congregation, having with him to go to the corner of Henry and Wide streets to see what he accomplished. First Calvary is both massive and magnificent, an architectural triumph. Besides, as a result of his sixteen years of labor here a great church has been built up. First Calvary Baptist Church is than a mournful pile of brick, and in cottage. It is a strong and efficient body of baptized believers in Christ. "Just as he was the prophet of the ministry of that venerable old prophet of the Lord, Dr. Evans Payne, of Richmond, so there are as results of his ministry, numbers of men set for the defense of the Gospel, hundreds of men, women and children enrolled and trained for Christian service, scores of families erstwhile renters, now living in their own homes purchased at his suggestion, and there are thousands who owe all they are in ideals and Christian life to the example he set and the inspired utterances that fell from his lips. FACED HEAVY ODDS "He accomplished in the face of odds. His struggle for an education began late and continued in the face of poverty. He was about 28 years of age when he started off to college and during at least one of his summer vacations was forced to live on less than a nickle a day. He struggled with a new way to graduation with home. For passionate he held was an humble one to fight with, but he made every one of them a desirable one before he left it. "Organizationally, Dr. Wallace has left to this community, to the Baptist Denomination and to the cause of Christ in general, a loyal church or organization, will prove a other things being equal, will prove a other things to lead than many another church popularly supposed to be without a peer. "But now the battle is over. The pains of death are past; labor and sorrow cause and life's long warfare closed at last. His soul is found in peace. With wide delights practically paid with intelligent men and women in charge of affairs, I predict a greater future still for the organization Dr. Wallace perfected and bapted behind—the First Calvary Baptist Church. May God bless this organization, embiling them to get a worthy successor to maintain that unity of love and harmony in service which has been the secret of their success in the past."

Anthony Aery) Hampton, Va., Jan.-Professor J. M. Pollard, of Community Service, Incorporated, an honor graduate of the University of Chicago, who for eleven years served as director of the academic department at the St. Paul Normal and Industrial School, Lawrenceville, Va., delivered the Emmanuel Day oration, on "Man-Making" in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, before 2,000 colored men, women, and children, in celebration of the sixieth anniversary of President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation and under the auspices of the local Emancipation Committee, of which Dr. J. T. Lattimore, of Hampton, is chairman. Professor Pollard referred to the work of the Hampton colored citizens in raising, within two weeks, almost $2,000 for the Colore dCommunity House in Hampton; made a plea for thinking about the "greater emancipation"; paid a tribute to Abraham Lincoln, "who was partly made by the times in which he lived"; pointed out the responsibility which men and women have as co-workers with God in man-making; showed the relation of such realities as raido, airships, and matches to dreams; and outlined some of the difficulties of training men so that they will not steal, will not kill, will not hate. Professor Pollard declared that American Negroes are blessed and must learn to in turn, to make even greater sacrifices for the education of their children. "The kind of men and women we make," he said, "depends on the kind of individuals we wish to make. We can make a race that is strong in the essentials of life." FREEDOM OF SPIRIT TO BE WON Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, in his address of welcome, said: "The deliverance from physical bondage was only the smallest part of the new birth of freedom which came to the Negro in 1863. Lincoln's generous words and deeds were necessary preliminaries: the consummation of the process has been approaching ever since. Complete freedom includes freedom of the spirit as well as freedom of the body." GET-TOGETHER CONFERENCE Professor Kelly Miller, of Howard University, who is a man of light and leading, has suggested a get-together conference of all of our religious, social and political organizations. He says: "The demand for a Nationwide Conference is imperative. This Conference should not be fostered by any one organization, but every type of agency or interest now at work should unite upon a call to consider the state of the race." We do not believe many persons will consider that such a Conference as Professor Miller suggests, of representatives of all of the organizations engaged in race work, is not imperatively needed. Just how far such a gathering would be able to harmonize their conflicting and distinctive interests and work out a programme of co-operative effort for race betterment is not an unimportant matter. The only way to get a sufficient answer to it is to get the representatives together and let them go on record. The disposition to pull and act separately and apart, as individuals and as organizations, is one of the greatest weaknesses and drawbacks the race has had to confront in the past, or has to deal with in the present. Each individual and each organization feels that its peculiar interests are such that it can gain and accomplish more by going it alone than by team work and mass action. We may have grown older and wiser in adversity. We may now be ready to get-to-gather as individuals and as organizations and make a united effort to map out a programme of race purpose and determination to promote and conserve its interests with which we all can work in sympathy and harmony for the common good. It may be so. The Conference meeting only could prove it so or not. THIRTY-ONE YEARS IN PRISON Interest has been aroused anew in the case of Samuel Moore, who thirty-one years ago was tried for murder in the District of Columbia and sentenced to life imprisonment at Atlanta. He was serving a term in the District when he killed a white man who threatened his life, and was in the act of assaulting him when he struck in self-defense. It is claimed that the jury did not consider the plea of self-defense sufficiently as it should, and that the conviction was in the nature of "a frame up." Success!

H. Sheppard, Of Louis: ville, Speaks At Hampton In- stitute From 20 Years Of Per- sonal Experience. oe Wis EL as Hampton, Va., Jan.—The Rey. Dr William BR. Sheppard, of Louisville )}}Ky., author of, “Poineers in Congo,’ ‘Jand’ a distinguished colored mission '|ary, who won for his discoveries in the’ Belgian Congo, during twent3 years of pioneer service under the | Southern Presbyterian Church, a fel- |lowship in the Royal Georgraphical |Society, spoke recently to numerous | groups of workers, students and vis- itors at Hampton Institute on the baffling problems which face the mis- sionaries in Africa. Doctor Sheppard described _ the atrocities. which had been committed in the Kasai Valley by armed sentries ‘of trading companies, which had re- ceived from the late King Leopold of the Belgians the franchise to gather rubber in the Belgian Congo. He modestly outlined his own share in bringing these atrocities to the at- tention of the Christian world. He described what King Albert has been ‘doing to_ improve conditions in the Belgian Congo. , Doctor Sheppard vividly described some of his experiences with African wild animals: and strange people, in-| cluding the cannabalistic Zappo Zaps, and his work among the Bakubas, mho represent a high grade of cul ture. He showed a valuable collec- tion of African curios and related the associations of these trophies with | African customs and superstitons. He paid a warm tribute to the Rev. Samuel N, Lapsley. He also declared that he had received his inspiration for missionary service from Dr. H. B. Frissell, principal of Hampton], from 1893 to 1917. He said: : “When I came out of prison in Leo-|! pldsville. after eight days of trial, | hree millions of our people and yours ame out of slavery into the light of iberty and true freedom. The gov- rnor sent a proclamation into the country: ‘You may still make rub-| er, but you wiil receive pay for it.’ “A change has come in the Congo. fi Ve have five great concessions now hroughout the Kasai Valley. Since |" ing Albert has come to the throne|P sings have changed altogether, He | building railroads, bridges, hospi- ls, and schools.

Jan—Dr. Wallace ‘Buttrick, of New York, president of ‘the General Education Board, speak- ig. recently at Hampton Institute on “Education as Self-Education,” paid ‘a glowing tribute to the late Dr. Hol- ‘lis B, Frissell, with whom he was as- ‘sociated in’ educational work for a number of years. © Dr. Buttrick, related at length tlfe ‘Vife-story of Michael Pupin, world known professor of engineering ’ at ‘Coumbia University, which has been ‘running serially in Scribner's Mag- azine as illustrative of the truth that ‘men must learn to make use of the pepuortnetties they have if they wish to become educated. He declared that salthough he has reached the age of seventy and has greatly impaired eye- ‘sight he reads no less than fifty good books annually, Doctor Buttrick said: “Every edu- veated person in the ‘world is self- ‘educated. You cannot educate any- “body but yourself. Nobody can edu- veate you. Teachers are not neces- ‘sary: libraries are not necessary; ‘laboratories and shops are not neces- ‘sary, though very important ad- :juncts. Education is the discipline of tyour own power by yourself, the ac- quiring of knowledge by and for jyourself, . = “That only is true education which never finished. The educated man jand the educated woman is the man or the woman who is able to say on the Bist day of December of any fyear, ‘I have learned more during ithese past 365 days than during any ther 365 days of my life.” E “Ever learning, ever struggling to- sward the truth, ever struggling to- Sward the best in’ character, ever fight- ing for the thing that ‘is a littl shigher and a little better and_a little ore worth while—that is what the féducated person is doing. “ «Education is a life process, and, if ere be a future life, its only attrac. ion to us should be that we may grow forever and be constantly fitting fobrselves for higher intelligence an¢ better service and deeper and truer Bppreciation of all that God has erourht and that God is.” : BELL’S MILL ‘The Heavenly Licht Quartette, of Berkley ang some of itk choice svlections at Lee's jel Sunday night. * While working at the chmond Cedar Works plant Wednesday, Mr. Albert Bly sustained serious injury.

Among his remarks Dr, Gandy stated that the function of the high school teach- er is “to train the minds of a race for leadership,” and that this fact makes evident “that the progress of civiliza- tion rests upon ‘the teachers, and largely the high school teachers.” In referring to work that the state is doing for education of all the people, Dr. Gandy further remarked: . “The State must finally come to realize that the burden of education must rest upon the State.” ‘Mr. Ellis in a short talk, gave as the purpose of the conference: “To lay a basis for future high school de- velopment.” Dr. George P, Phenix, vice-princi- pal, Hampton Normal and Agricul- tural Institute, spoke on “The Need for More Accredited High Schools for Negroes.” In his discussion Dr. Phe- nix said that his interest in colored schools was because colored people are citizens, not because they are col- ored; and that it is beside the point to discuss whether Negroes pay suffi- cient taxes to support the schools that should be established and maintained by public funds, He further stated that since the Negro was a large fac- tor in the production of the wealth of the state, and a comparatively, small consumer of its wealth, that he in- directly was a héavy tax payer. Dr. Phenix heartily endorsed the recommendation of the “Virginia School Survey,” in reference to Ne- gro education. Perersnurc SITUATION Mr. F. M. Martin, supt. of schools, Petersburg, spoke on “The Attitude of Local School Authorities.” Mr. Martin spoke only for the, city of Petersburg and offered to show the members of the conference conerete evidences of the attitude of the Pet- grsburg authorities in, the Peabody High School and the Henry William Graded School, a building which cost $100,000.00; another grade school in the process of construction, which is to cost $50,000,00; and the plans for still another grade school. The Peabody High School, Supt. Martin said, is the most effective ef- fort in the State for secondary educa- tion for Negroes. The Virginia Sur- vey rated this school at 940 on a scale of 4,000, points. | Supt. Martin struck the key note in his statement of why Negroes should receive as good education as they are capable of. We live in a democracy, Mr. Martin said, and the safety poli- tially and the progress ‘economically depend on the intelligence of all the people. No Democracy can exist when the people are ignorant. Since the Negro is a part of this republic, and he is here to stay, the life of the nation and the ideals of the democ- racy depend to a large extent on the intelligent functioning of the Negro population. Mr. Martin clinched the | above statement with these words: “Tf we don't educate all the people, rich, poor, black and white, native and for- Gign’ born, we are lost as a nation. As a matter of self-preservation America must educate all its people.” Mr. Martin set forth the following ideals for conducting efficiently th education of all boys and girls: 1. The ability to read, write, and figure sufficiently to carry on the business of his life. 2, To understand the government under which he lives so as to be a Haw abiding citizen, a 3. The ability to work with his hands so as to keep his own_self-re spect and to win the respect of others, 4. To be able to appreciate the best in literature and in science. 3. To develop the aesthetic self | through a knowledge of music, voca Jand instrumental, as far as the na: tive talent can be trained, Mr. Martin closed his remarks by | stating that it is the idea of the au: |thorities of Petersburg to give t every boy and girl the best and mos practical education led by the bes was discussed by Mr. M. J. Watkins | Supt. of Schools. Halifax County. Mr | Watkins touched the question from ¢ | different angle from either of the speakers who preceded him. He ap: | proached it from the spiritual side | Spiritual appeal is the most effective appeal. He believes in stirring, the hearts of those in authority so thal they will be led to feel their respon {sibility to a race who has alway’ | been ‘faithful even under the mos trying circumstances.

These ‘requisites f met will eliminate much ‘of the poor teaching now being done in the high schools of the State. The second speaker of the session, Mr. Henry G. Ellis, State supervisor of Secondary Education, spoke on the, “Requirements of the State Board of Education for an Accredited High School.” Mr, Ellis’ speech contained a wealth of information on many of the most vital questions in the minds of the principals assembled. After insisting upon the necessity of adequate and efficient elementary schools, for no high school has a right to exist at the expense of the elemen- tary school, Mr, Bilis spoke of the development of Negro High Schools, private and public. ‘The high school work for Negroes in the State is mostly done by the private schools. Outside of these schools there are only four accredited High Schools in the State for Negroes, Armstrong, in Richmond; Booker Washington," in Norfolk; Peabody, in Petersburg,’ and 1. G, Norcom, in Portsmouth. "The County Training schools and high schools in other cities and towns have from one to three years of high school work, For the minimum re- quirements for an accredited high school, the speaker gave as follows: (1) ‘Nine months’ session, (2) ele- mentary grades in connection with high school must also have nine months, elementary grades in the dis- trict must have seven months, (3) principals must have two periods of supervision, (4) teaching foree of at least three ‘high school teachers hold- ing State certificates for high school work he is doing, (5) program organ- ized on departmental basis, (6) phy- sical equipment for efficient instruc- ‘tion’ under healthful conditions,. (7) library requirements, 300 books. Mr. Ellis’ speech was eagerly dis- cussed by the principals who were ‘anxious to know not only the “what” of the requirements but the “how” also, The question of finance neces- sary. to make these requirements practical in Negro schools was a very vital one, and one on which the State authorities present were unable to answer satisfactorily for. themselves or for the principals, Added legisla- tion is needed to supply the necessary funds to realize these conditions in ; ie oi ie Something New On Church Street The manufacturers and distribtors of “Purefresh,” a delicious orange drink, have opened an establishment at 819 Church street that is both nov- vel and unique. It is an innovation in Norfolk in the way of arrangement and appointments, the entire front of the store heing so constructed that it will fold up, making an opening the full length and height of the front of the building. It is palatial in its construction, being fitted up in mar- ble and tile, with, the most modern equipment for serving cold drinks and. other delicacies. Mr. Johnny, Griffin is in charge and he is assist- ed by Mr. Willie White. the Negro high schools, and it was the unanimous wish of the body that some measure toward the realization of these ideals, be passed by the com- ing legislation. ‘The evening session was held in the Audience Hall’ of the Institute, the whole body of students and a few vis- Hors being present. ‘The speakers for the evening were: Dr. James Gregg, principal of Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, and Mr. Harris Hart, State superintendent of Public Instruction, ‘Vircinta LAGGING Dr. Gregg gave figures which show- ed that Vigna is behind both North Carolina and Kentucky in the devel- opment of Negro high schools: North Carolina, 76 high schools, 19 carrying Continued on Page Hight 321 CHURCH STREET Specialty Shop for - ree Children’s: Wear 3, IF YOU WANT SOME ee GOOD CIGARS GET THEM AT THE VIRGINIA CIGAR STORE ‘Simon 1.

Seana das in the beginning of the season 1922, the outlook was very bright for Nor- folk independent elevens.’ But. as the ‘| season grew older a shadow of doubt ‘came over the minds of the followers fand when the opening was announced there were only three texms in the vunning, They were the Norfolk Athletics, who had an enviable record for the season previous; the Colum- bia Athleties, also a team with a ree- ‘ord, and the Aeolian Athletics, The Aeolian Athletic Club formerly play- ed under the name of the Attucks Athletic Club and gained a number of admirers. The club looked, indeed, promising in the training and it was thought that it would prove a menace for adversaries. = The N. A. C’s with a semi-all-star Hinewp, with plenty of weight and) brawn, looked to be the best of the trio, But after the first game the fans thought otherwise. ‘They hud material but partiality ruled among the eleven. This, with their attempts, at individual starring were the sereat- est drawbacks, and again on more than one occasion they were hooted bythe fans for their’ unsporisman- hike exhibition on the gridiron. ‘The Columbia Athictics winked out after two games, They showed up well against the N. A. Gis in a 0-0 game. They had some very good material and some very rolten hte terial, Their defensive showed up well, tut Uieir offensive was all but sood. ; Now come the Acolians for af) rousting. They showed promise at the beginning of the season, but many sbstacles were ‘encountered by them. Had the Acolians’ material been prop-| | sly developed this team would have nroved to be the best in the city. they had the means by which they ould have developed a winner, but it eems that the same trouble that. nenaced the other independent teams wertook them. ‘The majority of in- jependent clubs had trovole in get- ing enough men out to train ade- ately, It takes material against! puterial to develop good material and ine the couch failed to have suffi- jont men for a good practice, natur- lly he failed to develop a winning regation.
