ASKS ARREST AND CONVICTION OF LYNCHERS
WOULD PUNISH PERSONS GUILTY OF MOB MURDERS
Special Term of Court Called To Institute Investigation Of Lynching Of King and Queen County Victim.
ATTORNEY GENERAL
TAKES PROMPT ACTION
"Those guilty of the lynching are guilty of murder, and when brought to justice should be treated according to the severity of the crime.
—Gov. E. Lee Trinkle
The citizens and the press of Virginia are calling for the arrest and conviction of the man guilty of beimirching the escutcheon of the State with the first lynching since 1921.
Since 1904 the State has averaged one lynching a year excluding the year of 1923, for which there is no official record of a lynching having been peperated in Virginia. In fact colored citizens of this state had begun to take pride in the increasing evidence of lynching, the harborspective of condemning and killing humans outside of legal processes. Ten men last week took from the possession of legally constituted authorities of King and Queen county Horace Carter, a middle colored man, accused of attempted assault upon a white woman. They constituted themselves jury and executioners, who killed while he was hand-cuffed with his hands behind him.
A special term of the Circuit Court in King and Queen County has been ordered for next Monday to investigate the lynching. A number of witnesses have been summoned to appear before the grand jury. Governor Trinkle has announced that every effort will be made to apprehend and punish the murderers.
COMMUNITY CENTER
IN ACTIVE PROGRAM
The Community Center has planned a campaign of nativity for the fall and winter that promises to offer to the young people of the city unusual recreational advantages.
For the past several weeks the Boys' Director, Mr. George Ward, has been formulating a program for recreation for boys, and with the passing of the Y. M. C. A., this question has become more pronounced, as Mr. Ward realizes that some provisions must be made to make up for the loss in recreation to the young colored men and boys "Y" afforded. He has circulated all male organizations and individuals of the city asking for co-operation in making possible worthy program of boys activities at the school. About fifty of them now engage in outdoor sports at the center regularly, but the lack of equipment constitutes a serious handicap, which might be easily overcome with a little help by the several men's organizations. Footballs, basket balls, boxing gloves, cheekers and dominos are needed to save the youth who are inclined to ward wholesome amusements from straying into hurtful diversions.
A physical training class for young women, especially school teachers and other children, occupation is more or less sedentary and does not permit them to take advantage of such opportunities offered elsewhere during the day, has been opened under the direction of Miss Hilda Seiden and Helen Lawrence and will be conducted every Monday night at 7 o'clock.

Expert Hat Maker Located In Arcade
There are probably a very few people in the uptown section of Norfolk, who know that there is a hat making establishment in this city. Every one is acquainted with hat cleaners and hat renovating places, but the hat hats from brooklyn is a thing most people associate with large factories for doing such work.
At number 9 Arcade there is a little window sign which reads, "Meath the Hatter" and inside that place is a one-man hat factory. There hats in all style and shapes and materials are made to individual order. Old hats are renovated and reshaped in designs to suit.
Mr. Meath, the proprietor, was for several years general foreman of one of the largest hat making concerns in the country and is familiar with hats of all grades. He is adept in making and trimming, reshaping and renovating and enjoys a large patronage. Mr. Meath has inserted an advertisement in this issue of this paper inorder to acquaint more colored people of the advantages offered to the end that they may have their hats treated by a professional hat
LAWYERS FORM TIDEWATER BAR ASSOCIATION
W. L. Davis, of Norfolk, Presid-ent; R. H. Pree, of New-port News, Vice President D. H. Edwards, Secretary.
HOPE TO DEVELOP A
STATE ORGANIZATION
What is declared to be the most representative gathering of Negro lawyers ever assembled in Virginia, for purposes strictly peculiar to the profession, was held in the offices of Howell and Wilson in the Attacks Theatre Building, Thursday afternoon October 11, 1923, when a majority of the leading members of the bar of this section of the State in person and by proxy, assembled to hear and consider the report of a committee on plans of organizing a bar association for this section.
The idea of an active and progressive organization of Negro attorneys of State wide, or at least sectional, proportions has been a topic for serious discussion among local members of the profession for some time, but it did not crystallize into definite form until some three or four weeks ago when a local chapter of the leadership of Atty. W. L. Davis met in the offices of Hodges and Foreman, and after prolonged informal discussion of the matter, organized a temporary committee with Attys. V. C. Hodges, and D. H. Edwards, chairman and secretary respectively. This committee sent out communications to every practitioner in Tidewater Virginia appraising them of the proposed plan and enclosed in each recipient requesting each recipient to signify his attitude on the proposition and return same promptly. The response exceeded the most sanguine expectations of the promoters.
LOCAL BAR ASSOCIATION COOPERATES
The next step was to take the matter before the local bar association of which Attorneys J. M. Harrison is President and E. S. Peters is secretary. This body at one of the largest attended and most enthusiastic meetings of Attorneys A. J. M. Harrison, Wednesday evening October 3rd, 1923 unanimously endorsed the project.
The idea became a reality when the plan as reported by the committee was adopted providing for the organization of the Tidewater Bar Association. This committee was composed of Attys, Joseph S. Hall, R. G. L. Paige, W. L. Davis, all of Norfolk, and R. H. Pree, and George A. Melvin, of Newport News and Portsmouth response in the plan. As an appreciation the body gave the committee a rising vote of thanks.
The work of this committee was of an unusually high order especially with reference to the aims, ideals and purposes as outlined in the plan. As an appreciation the body gave the committee a rising vote of thanks.
The officers and permanent committees that will guide the destiny of the organization for the first year are as follows: W. L. Davis president; R. H. Pree, vice president; the secretary; W. C. Hodges, correspondent secretary; A. Rainey, treasurer. Executive committee, W. W. Foreman, chairman; L. A. Howell, J. S. Hall, with W. L. Davis and H. E. Hwards ex-officio members. Committee on admission, Geo. A. Melvin chairman; R. C. Stith, W. H. Thomas. Grievance committee, L. A. Howell, chairman, I. N. Wilson, Frank Wilson. Committee on amendment, Geo. A. Melvin chairman; Goo. H. Walker, J. E. Diggs, Committee on constitution, J. S. Hall, chairman, R. G. L. Paige, Geo. A. Melvin, J. T. Newsome, J. M. Harrison. Auditing Committee, Walter H. Land, Chairman.
After having given to Tidewater the distinction of inaugurating a movement that will eventually culminate in to the formation of a State Negro Baptist Association, the meeting was to meet again in Norfolk, Thursday November 8, 1923, at 6 o'clock P. M.
VICE SUPREME HEAD OF
WOODMEN TO SPEAK

LONSHOREMEN
DETERMINED IN
LABOR DISPUTE
Decline To Fall For Increase Without Union Recognition And Stand Firm to Principles of Organized Lobar.
CONSIDER THIS TIME
THEIR ZERO HOUR
The longshoremen's strife in the port of Hampton Roads has passed thru its second week with the men still out and both sides claiming satisfaction over the situation. A new wage scale has been put into effect by the Stevedores following the announcement of the United States Shipping Board that it would effect a 75 cents hourly rate for handling cargo of ships under its control in this port. Shipping officials also polled a test with chairman Farley of the Shipping Board against the increase at time when they claimed to have had the strike won. They asked the co-operation of the government shipping agency in holding to the rate of 65 cents an hour which was in effect at the expiration of the contract between union longshoremen and stevedores. It is not believed that the Shipping Board intimated any intention of withdrawing its annotated contract, and counts for the promptness with which the private operators met the board's rate by announcing an increase to 75 cents at all wharves of the port.
Accompanying the Shipping Board, announcement of the new wage scale was a statement to the effect that the increase was not to be construed as a concession to union labor, but was the outcome of a policy agreed upon before the strike was called; and that the board would sign no agreement with the union representatives and would maintain an open shop policy here. In meeting the raise of the Shipping Board, private stewedoes and operators took a similar position and announced an open shop policy.
STRIKERS HOLD OUT
The strikers have not fallen for the 75 cents an hour rate without union recognition and thru their vice-president, George Milner, informed the press that they had no idea of accepting the sop and would hold out for the original demands. Mr. Milner also stated that notwithstanding press statements to the union, he had material defection in union ranks and the percentage of disloyalty had been negligible. "We are standing just as we walked out," said Mr. Milner," and every man is loyal to the principles of organized labor. Mr. Milner declined to make any further statement regarding the situation, but it is warranted that the union man consider it the zero hour for their organization without union recognition an attempt to force to the walls unionism by handing a sop to the men.
The longshoremen's local is regarded as the strongest group of colored workmen affiliated with the American Federation of Labor and it is said by them that they believe now is the time if ever, to effectively prove to organized labor that race organization and can be depended upon to uphold those principles. It is alleged that many of the young men and some of the older ones, too, are seriously considering the probability of going to other shipping centers where the demands for which they are striking are enjoyed by longshoremen.
There has been no disorder of any kind in connection with the strike since the incident of last Wednesday night a week ago.
MURDER SUSPECT
ADMITS IDENTITY;
TRIAL DATE SET
Herbert Copeland, Alias Love
Colden; Confesses That He
Is Man Wanted In Police
Double Killing.
COMMONWEALTH TO ASK DEATH PENALTY
Washington, D. C., Oce. 15—Henry L. Copeland, and Aloe Golden, charged with the murder of two Washington policemen and one Maryland constable and wanted for the murder of a white man in Texas, stood before Justice Bailey in division No. 1 of the Criminal Court on Wednesday of last week and admitted his identity. His case has been set for trail for Monday. October 29. Copeland admitted the homicides, for which he is now being held in District jail, on the night of May 21, 1918. He was badly wounded in a gun fight with officers before he was taken a captive. On the night of April 21, 1919, he mysteriously escaped from the District jail. Although a nationwide search for him was made, he was not recaptured until July 18, 1923. A Negro stool-pigeon tipped the police off and he was arrested as he was leaving the Firestone Department, Ohio, where he was employed. After he was returned to the District, he stoutly denied his identity and had local police greatly perplexed as no Bertillon record or photograph had been made of him. Yet they hope to prove his identity by scars left by the wounds he received on the night of the homicides.
When arraigned last week, Justice Bailey inquired: "Is this Herbert murdered?" A sudden hush fell over the courtroom. The prisoner replied: "Yes, sir, this is Copeland."
Copeland was brought from the jail to the court house with about a dozen other prisoners. He was heavily guarded and the officers took the precaution of handcuffing him between two other prisoners. In the cellroom of the courthouse he was allowed in the cell with the other prisoners, but strict watch was maintained. Henry Lincoln Johnson will make the fight to save his life. He will have associated with hint Chas; Summer Williams and B. L. Gaskins. The defense will largely rely upon the illegality of the act of the officers in attempting to kidnap Copeland and take him into Maryland without a warrant. This was the cause of the homicides. The defense will contend that it is not the responsibility on the ground that even a Negro's cabin, however lowly it might be, is, in law, his caste and that Copeland was justified in resisting in self-defense and in defense of his home.
He will go to trail on the indictment charging him with murder in the first degree for the killing of a government regards this as its strongest case and will ask for the death penalty.
The Blyden Round Table Organized
The Blydon Round Table, a recent organization, meets weekly the 8 o'clock Friday evenings at the Blydon Branch of the Public Library, corner of Princess Anne Ave. and Chicagolai St. The purpose of the Round Table is to provide occasion for reviewing books, discussing important topics and curriculums. With only a month's experience the movement has demonstrated that there is a sufficient number of interested persons to make the effort worth while. Mr. C. D. Cogan was selected leader; Mrs. Jessie Moone, Secretary; Mr. Alex Gregory, Mrs Willie Givens and Mr. B. B. Whitehurst, Program Committee. Others present at the last meeting took part in the discussions were: Mr. G. Jacock, P. J. Chesson, Mr. Riller, M. F. Ponville, Pierce McNiel Thompson, Miss Etta Carter, Madames L. E. Titus, Lucy B. Dogan, Eulalia Thomas and Mr. Thomas.
The Round Table has begun a careful reading of "The Revolt Against civilization, by Lothop Stoddard, the author of the famous book "The Rising Tide of Color." The meetings are open to any one who desires to read, think and exchange views with others. The 4th Chapter of the above mentioned book will be discussed at the next meeting. The outline is made by Mrs. Eulalia Thomas.
Bailey Gets Phyllis Wheatley Garden
Popular Amusement Promoter To Operate Anditorium As Bailey Park Annex.
John Bailey, owner and operator of Bailey's Park, one of the best known amusement places, in the South, has secured the Phyllis Wheatley Garden auditorium and will operat it as an annex of Bailey Park.

Tuesday night, October 23 at 8 o'clock the annex will open for the season at an admission charge of twenty-five cents a night.
COMMUNITY FUND CAMPAIGN GETS STARTED NOV.19
Sunday, November 18, Designated As Day of Special Prayer and Sermons on "Giving For Charity.
CHURCHES DEPENDED UPON TO AROUSE PEOPLE
The Community Chest Fund will be launched November 19 and continue thru the 27. After a careful survey of the city by the colored committee and mature consideration of the possibilities of its race citizenship in 12,000 households, the committee quotes that should be available among the Negroes of Norfolk for this cause.
Members of headquarters committee, who are giving their time to the Community Fund in an executive and advisory capacity have let it be known that they feel that the responsibility for making the campaign a success among the colored people rests, in a large measure, with the race clergy in the community. In recent interview with the colored committee intimated that they were staking high hopes upon the Negro ministry of Norfolk to effectively put this matter before their people. They mentioned the beautiful-colored churches of Norfolk and the beautiful homes owned by race citizens as evidence of money current among the race people, and adding that all that is needed to them to the responsibility attached to them to share in the support of their charities, which are almost wholly supported by white people.
Altho there are encouraging indications of a successful drive, it is admitted that there is a strange and almost inexplicable apathy toward this movement among some of the very people whose influence and active support would contribute immeasurably to putting the campaign over in tip-top style. White men and women of large business responsibilities are still hourly hours of our time similarly perceiving the organization that will offer all the details, and all that they ask of the colored people to rise up and do their best. As an inducement to the race citizenship of Norfolk to show up well in this campaign the white people have practically promised to match the Negroes' money dollar for dollar for the benefit of the colored people.
In order to start the campaign off with arousing enthusiasm the white committee requests that Sunday, November 18, every day in the city preach a special sermon on giving for Charity." It happened on that day to bring every man and woman a realization of his or her relation to charity in a manner never before witnessed in this city. Winter is near at hand and all of the charities are desperately in need of funds, even before entering upon their 1924 budgets.
The colored committee of which Dr. Frank R. Trigg is chairman and Mr. George A. Webb, secretary holds meetings at the Community Center every Thursday evening at 6:30 o'clock. These people are bearing the brunt of this work for it is they who are sacrificing time for a cause which they hope will benefit their race. The chairman and secretary called a meeting in Berkley ward last Tuesday night and will have. another meeting there next Tuesday night in an effort to facilitate the work on that side.

Geographical Importance of Israel—Josh. 1:1,4.
"The Land of Israel occupies a unique position among the nations of the ancient world." (1). Its isolation. It was separated from the west by the Mediterranean Sea from the land of Egypt on the south by the great and terrible wilderness of Israel's countryside; from the east by the desert mountains of the Sinai wall of mountains which could only be entered through narrow valleys or passage ways easily defended against an invading army. (2). Its central location. To the inhabitants of Babylon and Elam was the most important site of immigration and adventure had been tending long before the days of Abraham. T. the Egyptians it was the 'Midland region on the way to commerce or conquest, amid the rich valleys of the Sibirnate and the Nile, and the great general, of Alexander, and the great general, of
the 'great general of Rome; it is the 'high bridge on which they ascended and descended respectively; in to the Exuberant. While the mountain strengths of Israel, especially in the centre of the land, were sedum disturbed by infestation, they lay on its western border - was the favorite
Home, it is the highest ceded and descended respectively into the basin of the Nile or the Euphrates. While the middle basin of Israel, especially in the centre of the land, were seldom disturbed by invading hosts, this high-water basin was the darier was the favorite route for centuries to the three great continents: Asia, Africa and Europe. This double relation of exclusion and intercommunication was necessary feature in the heritage of a people who were at one period of their history to dwell apart from the earth, and who saw the sage life and salvation to all the people of the earth." Prof. R. L. Steward, D. D.
Palestine, the Land of Israel, was the gift of God to his chosen people, Y. 2. The area of the land was fifty-six thousand square miles; about the size of New York and Israel at one time, except during the brief reigns of David and Solomon, possessed all this territory.
"We too, fail to passess all the land destined for us. Our character is much wider, than our actual wealth. God gives more than we take, and we are content to occupy the land which he has given us."—Machaeron.
2. The Religion of Israel Supreme—Ia. 2.2-4.
The religion of the Jews perfected and universalized in Christianity is to be the religion of a monk. For the monk, the land of Jerusalem, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem, Ve.3. The true the highest, and the most complete knowledge of the God can come only through Christ and Christianity. Universalis and goodwill cover the earth as the water of the sea, and when men overlearned the ways of God and walked in his paths.
"The change is to be produced by the agony of the Gospel. There may be other instrumentalities of a subordinate nature brought into operation, such as the knowledge of each other, and the knowledge which they may acquire of their mutual interests and the Christian Christ is to be the principal cause of the termination of hostilities in our world, and the introduction of the region of universal peace and felicity." -Bible Illus.
E. Israel 18:22-24; Eph. 5:2.
"That she is in the midst of the nations and countries about her' looks to her central position among the nations of Western Asia and Northern Africa, and to her prominence before all those nations that inhabit them, is judged by the only living God." -Cowtes.
Israel is to leaven the whole world with the leaven of true religion. There shall be no other religion, and the timeless shall be no more. All peoples shall be brothers, and the true God shall be the Father and God of mankind." -Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.
America is probably destined to be the immediate instrument by which Christ Intends to make his gospel known to the world. God has given the Kingdom over all the nations and races of the world. The idea cancue-suddenly to the world the main responsibility of giving to the world the most rest with Europe, where Christianity has been in possession from the beginning. God lifts up its head in the strength of a great purpose, and with the sense of a divine spirit within it, that it to be accustomed to.—Dr. Robert H. Horton, of England.
America needs to arm her ways, or she

The workers die; but work lives on.
The greatest honor that can come to a man is to give his life to God.
Christianity is the universal religion; because it is the only religion that meets the universal needs of mankind.
Christianity is the pancas for the evils of the world. Everything else tried has failed.
God has set every Christian nation in the midst of the earth to bless mankind.

BANK STREET BAPT CHURCH W. J. Scott, reporter
—A sermon inspirational in its scope was delivered by Rev. C. M. Long Sunday morning to a large congregation at the Bank St. Church, "The Six Cities Of Refuge," from Joshua 20th Chapter, 7-9, Verses, the subject of the discourse. The speaker dwell throughout upon the conditions existent in the Israeliish state during the time of Joshua's administration, the condition of strict justice, an eye for an eye and a tooth for atooth The historical settings of the cities were portrayed with great vividness. The deep research into all that want to make up the history of those cities and the times in which they flourished bought out many interesting facts that kept Rev. Long's hearers in a spell of intense throughout the sermon, in which they flourished Jesus as the great force and agency sent to earth to lift mankind to a higher standard and conception of duty one towards another. As the cities of refuge were needed in that day to save the unintentional offender against human life from destruction, so Jesus, the Saviour of the world, typified the great reverence and devotion of believethon him. A series of parallels between the offices of the places of refuge as established in ancient time, and the ministry of Jesus Christ as our present refuge from soul destruction, if we but receive him into our own lives, and fife the wrench which must assuredly overtake those who continue in sin.

day, Rev J. Haile preached an inspiring sermon from the subject, "Unto ye I have given an example, that ye should do as I have done to you." Rev Haile preached another strong sermon at night from the subject, "And I will give unto you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven."

Smith, preached from the words, "Behold I stand at the door and knock. If any man will open unto me I will come in and sup with him and he with me." The speaker emphasized the thought that "Christ is standing at the door of men hearts regardless of who he is, and when he will accept Him he work as a co-partner with them. The discourse was uplifting. He preached another able sermon at 7:30.

Our Market affords a fresh supply of fruits and vegetables at all times as well as a big selection of fish, meats, home-made sausages and beef at money saving prices.
We have several colored merchants in our market, which we appreciate, and the colored trade is highly appreciated along with our white trade. Hoping to have a large crowd to share with our many bargains for Friday and Saturday. Bring this add; it is worth 5c on the purchase of each chicken. We have plenty of room for parking space.

field and circled the opponents; secondary defence, the clearness shown by the backfield men in rendering the *aerial attack* of the opponents to no avail, were some of the winning qualities uncked by the Lions during the game.Taken as a unit, the squad represents a true Lincoln type of the "Old Order" brand.
At the blasting of the whistle, Lincoln kicked off. The sprinting ends downed the runner before he had gained 5 yards. Harrisburg tried twice through the line but failed. On the third down the back fumbled. The skin was exchanged by Crudup. Then an exchange by kicks took place which resulted in Bryant ending for 70 yards, registering the initial touchdown. Captain Johnson missed goal.
Lincoln's goal was in real danger during the third period, when a Harrisburg back intercepted a pass and had a clear field to the goal. The moment was tense and a touchdown seemed cerain as the runner neared the line, but Lancaster emerged from a pile and like a hurricane swept down the field and towered the fleeting back 5 yards from the mark, and then the front rank won praise, and proved itself a living tower of strength.
Tad Lancaster stepped into the limelight circle after the game. He not only saved Lincoln's goal and caught several 'passes', but also played a gritting game at his wing post. Other men who played well were: "Buster" Brown who replaced. Byrd at quarter. He kept the team pepped up with his fighting, yells, besides making wonderful runs after punts. With little more experience under Coach Young's tultage he will undoubtedly be a terror. Goodman and Morgan were on their toes during the game. Fields of Harrison deserves credit for his remarkable field generalship. Coston, Hogans, Skinner and "Sky" Woods report last week. They will unbottle their form in the West Virginia fracas. Carter is still on the hospital pad.

ST. PAUL CRUSHES OLD NORTH STATE
Mighty Line Plunging Of Douglass Machine Bewilders and Vanquishes Plucky Tarheels
(By J. L. WHITEHEAD)
Lawrenceville, Va., October 13—Holding the visitors at their mercy in every stage of the encounter and playing with consumate skill, St. Paul crushed the plucky and sturdy bunch of lads from the Old North State here today by the score of 7 to 0 despite reliable predictions to the contrary. A large crowd witnessed the one-side but clearly played game. St. Paul ripped nearly minutes of the tilt. St. Paul ripped the Tarheels' to pieces and smashed their much vaunted aerial attack. St. Paul scored their first touchdown in the first two minutes of play. In an endeavor to make the game interesting from a spectators point of view, Douglas used his entire squid of 41 men. That did not solve the problem, however, for the second half. St. Paul scored four points in the second half. The Tigers literally submerged their opponents who found 4t utterly impossible to stem the tide of the former's advance and scoring.
St. Paul fumbled six times, three of which were recovered by the North Carolinians. The second recovery by the visitors and their subsequently 11½ yard dash landed the ball on St. Paul's 18 yard line which was the nearest they ever reached the Sorechack's goal, and the second threat they made to score, the first being Spellman's try for a field goal from St. Paul's 22 yard line.
Of the outstanding players of North Carolina State Normal were Captain Spillill who played a hard and consistent game at right end. Spellman, whose brilliant kicking drew many applauses, and who ran his team remarkably well during his short period of offensive tactics Payton and N. Parker performed cleverly.
The entire St. Paul squad looked like a world beater against such an inferior aggregation; but especial credit might rightly be accorded Capt Parker, Walker, Scribler, Byrd, Cooke, Lawyer Williams, Parrell, Sumlar and Blackwell.

HAMPTON ROUTS MORGAN COLLEGE
"Seasiders" Literally Swamps "Marylanders" By A 44-0 Score In One-Sided Game.
By P. BERNARD YOUNG, Jr.
Hampton, Va., October 15—in her first game of the season Hampton institute's 1922 championship team literally overwhelmed the fast Morgan College team. The "Susiders" scored seven touchdowns and two extra points after touchdowns 44 to 9. The first touchdown came after four minutes of play. The second and third teams were thrust into the fray and attacked the "Marylanders" with the same irresistible offence as the first squad displayed—and scorrel with ease. The "Marylanders," however, fought from the first sound of the whistle until the finish of the game, but could not stop. Every man on the Hampton team played great ball. There were no outstanding stars, as every man was of the best.
Hampton kicked to Morgan's goal and made a touchback. The ball was brought out to the 20-yard line. Morgan was thrown for a loss on her first play. Morgan then kicked to her 85-yard line and Hampton signaled for a fair catch. Cardozar and Hardwick then hit the line for two first downs. Cardozar gained 8 more yards and Hampton's first touchdown.
Morgan kicked to Hampton's 25-yard line. Gunn ran 30 yards before being downed. After a series of gains the "Seasiders" fumbled and Morgan covered the pigskin. After being thrown for a loss Morgan kicked. After long gains by Cardozar, Hardwick, Jacobs, and Gunn, which put Hampton on the 5-yard line, Hardwick plunged over the line for Hampton's second touchdown. The first quarter ended with Morgan in possession of the ball on her 2-yard line.
In the second quarter, through a series of brilliant plays and a 28-yard pass from Jacobs to Jones, Jacobs was able to carry the leather over on a line-play for the third touchdown. Jacobs scored the extra point by a drop kick. A substitution was made by Morgan and Hampton's second team was thrust into the fray. After short gains by Morgan, Williams intercepted a pass and ran 12 yards. Lewis scored the fourth touchdown by a line-plunge. The half capped with Morgan in possession of the ball on Hampton's 33-yard line—score: Hampton, 25; Morgan 0.
Hampton kicked to Morgan and Morgan punted. Long gains by Hampton and the team were from Hampton. Loo netted Hampton her fifth score. Hampton's third team was substituted for the second team and scored after two minutes of play on an intercepted pass by Hubbard, who ran 30 yards for a touchdown. The quarter ended with the ball on Morgan's 45-yard line.
The first team finished in the last quarter and scored another touchdown. After spectacular lineplunging by Cardozar for 14 yards, Hardwick 18 yards, Jacobs 6 yards, 8 more by Hardwick, and 8 by Jacobs, Hampton fumbled the ball on a tackle. Morgan covered and kicked. Thatcher was substituted for Cardozar. Thatcher plunged into the "Marylanders" line with a mighty impact and reeled off 18 yards. Then scored another touchdown. Another pass from Jacobs to Jones won the extra point. Hampton kicked to Morgan. The game ended with Morgan in possession of the ball on her 40-yard line.
The Hampton line was practically impregnable. Morgan made only one first down. The playing of Dindle at the pivot position was excellent; the Raffin brothers played in old-time form; Capt. T. Coleman starred in every play, threw Morgan for many losses; T. J. Coleman and Creasy at the guard positions were bulwarks of strength; Jones at right end was a large factor in the Hampton victory; in face every player came up to or passse expectations.

KITTRELL BEATS ALBION
Franklinton, N. C.—In a game replete with thrills and featured by the all around play of Driver, who scored the first touchdown, Kittrell College won from Albion Academy 12 to 0. The game was also featured by the line plunging of Bowden, Vaughn and Cantain Williams who gained at will through Albion's line. The line work of Mosely also featured the game.

Booker T. Romps Over Royal A. C.
The Royal Athletic Club, who has boasted of a confidential victory over the Educators, was greatly suprised Friday when their heavy team was outplayed and outgeneraled in every particular by the machine of Booker T. Washington high school. The Royals played a clean game and gave the Educators some hard handling, especially in the third quarter, but this rally came too late to stem inevitable defeat. Coach Wilson says that there are quite a few defects in his machine yet, which he hopes to iron out by next Friday. The Royals' perfect forward passing in the last quarter looked good, but was one of their chief disaster contributors.
The high school machine worked smoothly. Captain (Bulldog) West registered twenty of the thirty-one points, assisted by Brickhouse, Coble, Tynes and John. The central play of the line need no mention. One of the main features of the game was the playing of Smith at center for the Educators. Fans exhibited more enthusiasm Friday for a local school football encounter than has been exhibited since the days of old John T. West. The colors of Bookshelf will fill the week. The squad will meet Noreom HI, of Portsmouth in Norfolk Friday, October 19. Every student of both schools is confident of victory and will be in full to witness the struggle. "Bull" Merritt, the Aeolian star hallback, is coach for the Noreom boys. He is confident, as he realizes that the Portsmouth boys are worthy opponents.

Monday and Tuesday: Adolph Zokor presents a William DeKille production with Theodore Roberts, May McAvey and Conrad Nagel. They all beats he's just a grouch till-Till a $400,000 diamond vanishes into thin air, and scandal hangs over a pair of young lovers; then crabby, lovable, keen old grumpy flashes out like a sky-rocket, and how things do hum. You'll see Theodore Roberts in his greatest, funniest role; you'll see the most famous of all mystery players, you'll see William DeKille's Richest Entertainment Treat. The play broke records in New York and London. The picture will break records everywhere. Don't miss it of you will be sorry.

Merritte Shaping I. C. Norcom Squad
The I. C. Norcom football squad for 1923, the very light, is making rapid progress under the tutoring of Clarence (Bull) Merritttee and the helping hand of Captain Alonzo Adams. The team has made a poor showing the last games, but the week spots and wrinkles have been ironed out and a better team has been strengthened by the addition of Luke Harris, of St Paul, on left end.
Norcom has a milion dollar back field with captain Alexon (Leap) Adams in right half; Eugene (Fapa) Myers in his old position, full back; and Clarence (Teapot) Young, left half; Clarence (Mose) Cerveny, quarter; Debra (William) Willingham. The team has by no means lost hope in the old adage"that a poor beginning makes a good qididy. The motto is: "Toogether we Stand. Divided we fall." The team, will go up against some hard opponents in its schedule for the seasons among whom are: Booker. High. Occupied community. October 26 at Portsmouth; November 1.

He also reminded the league members of the week being Fire Prevention Week and urged the teaching in the home of caution in the use of fire. Prof. Robinson referred to the plexis given to the student body by Mr. Walter Smith, secretary of the Patrons' League, on his private playgrounds near the close of the Spring term and stated that the occasion was one long to be remembered in the life of the school and the children would always keep it in mind as an annual affair.
Mrs. Walk, a former teacher in J. C. Price school and now a mother, spoke in interest of the future of the league and a better school building. Mrs. Daveport, vice president of the league and many parents spoke.
Mr. Stanell and his company will give a play, "The Poor Married Man" in the near future for the gift of the sake" playground. "The next meeting will be held on the second. Monday in November from 8 to 9 o'clock. The motto of the league is "A Better School building."

LONNIE WILLIAMS, Assistant Manager
Louisville, Ky., Oct. 20—The Black man's stand in the Gubernatorial Campaign now being waged in "Old Kentucky" was unequivocally defined by Bishop A. J. Carey, presiding officer of the 43rd Kentucky conference of the A. M. E. Church in session here today.
The term "nigger womens" had publicly applied to the 75,000 registered women voters, by the Democratic candidates for governor, was the signal for attack, and tonight 400 black ministers of the gospel from cities and hamlets throughout the state are entrenched solidly and enthusiastically beheaded Bishop Carey in this, as he brings it, the zero hour.
HONOR OF COLORED WOMEN UPHELD
The Bishop was elequent in his appeal to the four hundred ministers of Kentucky to accept the challenge of this "inspired vehicle of the devil" to go forth and do battle with the man who publicly declared as "black wenches" every one of the registered colored women of this State. "Such a man hardly fit to be an American, often much less the Governor, of the great commonwealth of Kentucky" was the unanimously expressed opinion of the ministers in their enthusiastic endorsement of the Bishop's stand.
Bishop A. J. Carey got up from a bed in Chicago to answer his insult to our women before his conference. Against the advice of his physicians he came to Louisville to tell the ministers and citizens of Kentucky that in Chicago where he was active against a Klux Klan influence and voted for a Democratic mayor who was Catholic, that the promises of this man have been kept with the democratic people and next week the democratic Mayor will have his appointment of the first colored Library Trustee confirmed by a Democratic council with the exception of two colored Aldermen.

SPEELMAN PAT TROTTER READS ON SEGREGATION PETITION QUERY IN HIS BUREAU TO PRESIDENT
Washington Indignant Over Attempt of Under Clerk To Absolve Bureau Head Of Blame For Conditions.
Special to The Journal and Guide
Washington, D. C., Oct. 16—The report is being circulated that two Negroes, with the aid of a white man, are making strenuous efforts to absolve Harley V. Speckman, Register of the Treasury, from all blame for the segregation of Negro clerks in his office. The two colored men are J. Silas Harris and Henry E. Hagen.
SEEK SIGNATURES TO STATEMENT
The story, as told directly by an employee of the Register's office, is that J. Silas Harris and Henry B. Hagen, together with a white division chief, are circulating a statement among the colored clerks for their signatures. Dr. Alphonzo J. Harris, chief of the colored section, is also asked to sign.
The alleged statement defends Mr. Speelman and gives the inference that segregation in the Register's office is a policy of the Treasury Department, over which Mr. Speelman has no control. It is claimed that segregation was instituted by William G. McAdoo, former Secretary of the Treasury during the Wilson administration, and that Mr. Speelman cannot alter this condition.
No reference is made to the fact that Mr. McAdoo and the former Register are Democrats and segregation was to be expected at their hands. They also forget that Mr. Mellon and Mr. Speelman are supposedly Republicans and that the Republican party was committed to the abolition of segregation in the executive departments.
In their zeal to absolve Mr. Speelman, they point to the large number of colored employees in the Register's office, but no mention is made as to the character of their employment or the small salaries paid them in comparison to the white clerks. There are 116 colored employees, a large number of whom are sub-clerks, laborers and messengers. The other are minor clerks and stenographers. The highest salary paid to a colored clerk is that received by Miss Mary Royster, who was first discharged and then later transferred to this section from the Treasurp Department, when it was discovered that she was reduced. Her salary would be reduced but for Congressman Tinkham. Dr. Harris, the chief of the colored section, receives only $1,500 a year plus the bonus. The colored clerks are also called upon to do menial labor in the absence of regular laborers, and in this they feel that they are discriminated against, as no white male clerks are asked to do such work. But none of these facts are alluded to in the statement being circulated for signatures.

Equal Rights Delegation Received At White House And Presents Dignified and Impressive Race Plea
Washington, D. C., October 6—At 10:15 today the delegation chosen at the 16th Annual Meeting of the National Equal Rights League held in the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Brooklyn where Rev. T. J. Moppins of St. Louis was elected president in a strong convention, to lay before the President the redress program of the race, was received at the White House. Secretary Slemp introduced Maurice W. Spencer, National Treasurer, citizen of Delaware, to President delegation consisting of Rev. L. C. Newby of Conn, Rev. C. M. Moore, of Mo. J. L. Neill, Esq., National Recording Secretary of D. of C. Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, 2nd Vice Taylor, of Mass., Mrs. T. S. Harten of N. Y., J. Simon Scott, of Conn, H. R. Adams, of Penn, Rev. Thomas S. Harten, National Organizer, of N. Y., William Monroe Trotter, of Mass, Rev. Geo. Frazier Miller, National President at large, of N. Y., and Isaac H. Nutter, Esq. of N. J.
The President shook hands cordially and greeted the Massachusetts delegation as home state acquaintances. He stood in front of his desk while the delegates stood in a wide circle about him.
Mr. Trotter was called on and read the "Petition Query" in conversational tone. It named lynching, Southern Congressional representation, unreduced despite, disfranchisement, Jim-Crow cars denial of entry to West Point, Citizens Military Training Camps, except with segregation, the non-inclusion of Colored units in Army Divisions, denial of entry to Annapolis or to any class in the Navy except as coal passers, coal trimmers, oilers and the mess department. It asked pardon for the 24th.

An answer by the Presidett was asked to each section.
The argument and plan by Rev. Thomas S. Harten, spoken informally represented that an expression to the race was needed because it did not rightly understand the new Chief Executive, on account of which many of the race had left the Republican Party, instancing, with Secretary Slemp present, the race conception which he himself had until a long personal talk Friday with Mr. Slemp. Referring to Mr. Coolidge's record in Massachusetts, and to the well known oppressions of the race, Rev. Harten, declaring the race were praying as they awaited the President's attitude, quoting scripture on "speak now or perish," and on asking bread and not giving a stone, urged the President to take a stand

for protection and for redress of the grave wrongs. Rev. G. W. Frazier Miller then said the delegates were ready to hear the President.
THE PRESIDENT'S REPLY
Then Mr. Spencer nodded to the President who spoke deliberately and at length. After urging the race to realize others also had troubles, to gain hope from the race's own wonderful progress. Mr. Coolidge stated that he would not change from his stand in Massachusetts, that he was glad the delegation had come to get well acquainted, that the Government would dispense justice, that it would, as far as a government could, protect the race against injustice and imposition, that it would recognize the race for political appointment when it was possible to do so. He said he wanted the race to assist the government in doing this, and assured that he was with the race in its stand for fair treatment.
Isaac H. Nutter, Esq. expressed appreciation and asked the President to make as a public address some time his statement. He delegated Mr. Nutter and the Committee to do this. When Mr. Trotter asked whether the President would declare publicly for the Dyer Bill, etc., he replied that his statement showed where he stood on all such issues, which the delegation considered boded well in view of the character of the general position taken in the President's response.

Race Detective Plays Star Role in Famous Stokes Divorce Case
Race Detective Plays Star Role in Famous Stokes Divorce Case
Rushed Affidavits From Chicago To New York That Upset Mrs. Nell Rose Miller's Testimony Against Mrs. Stokes.
Chicago, Ill.—Sherdian A. Brueaux, a colored detective, head of the Keystone National Detective Agency, of Chicago, succeeded in obtaining evidence which would impeach the testimony of Mrs. Nell Rose Miller, star witness in the Stokes' Divorce case, after Atty. Samuel Untermeyer had tried unsuccessfully for several hours to break down Mrs. Miller's testimony in the course of the trial in New York, last week.
Helen Elwood Stokes and that she did not know the woman she saw in Edgar Wallace's apartment, but that she was going to be forced to testify as a witness in the W. E. D. Stokes New York Divorce Case, because she had received money at various times and was literally being "hounded to death."
This affidavit was rushed to New York City by the colored detective and when Mrs. Nell Rose Miller, was confronted with her moth-
The Miller woman repeatedly declared that she had waited upon Mrs. Stokes several times in an apartment of Edgar Wallace, who was named by Stokes as co-respondent. Attorney Untermeyer grilled Mrs. Miller for several hours, attempting to make her contradict herself. He finally failed and gave up in his attempts.
At this juncture, Sheridan A. Burseaux, who had been retained by Mrs. Stokes, was informed by long distance phone, from New York, that the case was about to be closed, and that the Jury's verdict would probably hinge on Mrs. Nell Rose Miller's statements. He then got in touch with Mrs. Eliza Bailey, Mrs. Rose Miller's mother, and finally obtained an affidavit from her which indicated that her daughter had perjured herself in the New York Court.
A dramatic scene was enacted in the Detective's office when in the presence of two Chicago daily news paper men, Mrs. Eliza Bailey made her startling statement. She said, "My daughter told me that she was sure she could identify Mrs.
Helen Elwood Stokes and that she did not know the woman she saw in Edgar Wallace's apartment, but that she was going to be forced to testify as a witness in the W. E. D. Stokes New York Divorce Case, because she had received money at various times and was literally being "hounded to death."
This affidavit was rushed to New York City by the colored detective and when Mrs. Nell Rose Miller, was confronted with her mother's statement made under oath, she admitted that she had perjured herself.
Thus, it is believed, that the testimony of Stokes' star witness will be impeached th.ough the brilliant work of the colored detective, Sheridan A. Brusaux. This investigation, no doubt puts Mr. Bursenx on record as one of the cleverest detectives in the country, not only his race, but of any race.

somehow, somewhere, the means of a livelihood ought to be obtained easier. The feeling is rudimentary impulse for fraternity. They have worked hard all their lives, and received little, and when a seeming invitation is given to reach out their hands and receive more than the law of business entitles them to, the feeling instantly arises that this is as it ought to be, that they finally may temporarily shift their burden on the shoulders of some one else. It is accepted as a natural compensation for the years of hardship they have undergone. But when feeling is quite Utopian, not practical. Sibs people are almost sure to be disappointed. The best and sunset way to get things is to work for them. Trying to get something for nothing is bad business.
There is very little moral difference between the financial shark and his victim. The shark wanted to get something for nothing. So did the victim. They both had the same immoral impluse. Both have been demoralized, and in the end both will get beaten at their own game.
The spectacular thrives in the atmosphere furnished by those who wish to get something for nothing. He bats his trap with their unhealthy wishes. They bite his face. They find too late that is was baited with a code equity quite similar to their own purposes. They expected to get two dollars for one. They never asked themselves where the two dollars were coming from. A moment's thought would have shown them that if they get more than their investment deserves some one else must get less.

SOMETHING FOR NOTHING
Hoping to get something for nothing is a vice that stands right next to that kindred vice of getting things or money on credit. Borrowing a dollar here. Ten dollars there. Ruining in debt to the grocery and the dry good store. Buying worthless stocks in alleged gold mines. Real estate, enterprises that promise to pay a large rate of interest. There is a multitude of people standing ready to be victimized with this sort of thing.
The primary trouble is with the people themselves. The demand to get something for nothing is so widespread that an ever-increasing multitude furnish a harvest ripe and ready for the reapers, which the petty financier loses no time in taking advantage of.
The man of means, the man of business, the man who could really afford to lose some money, he has experience or education that fortifies him against being caught by these skin games. It is the unsophisticated that are the dupes. The harvest consists mainly in petty savings, boarded up for a rainy day by that class of people who have no business experience. The almost universal instinct of trying to get something for less than its ordinary value, on the surface looks like a purely selfish impulse. But a little close scrutiny shows this impulse to be fraternal, rather than selfish. Traced to its source, this is the feeling that leads so many people into the quagmire of debt and dishonesty. Such people feel that

START IN BUSINESS RIGHT
Business enterprises operated by two or more persons should be undertaken, only after they have all signed partnership agreements which concisely state the relations and obligations of each partner to the business enterprise and to each other.
It is common practice amongst our people to go into business as partners before they have entered into any specified agreements or have definitely decided within their own minds just what relations each would bear to the business; how much capital each should furnish, how much time each should devote to the business; what the obligations of each should be towards the business and to each other, and many other details that should be settled in advance, but are not given any consideration until they arise in the regular course of business.
When this happens, differences of opinions between the partners as to what should be done under the
Annual Convention Alpha Phi Alpha
Washington, D. C.—Assurance that the largest number of colored college men and women ever to be gathered in convention is made evident by the granting by the railroads of the country of a reduced rate to the members and friends of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity who are to attend the sixteenth annual convention of this fraternity which will be held in Columbus, Ohio, during the period December 27th to 31st, inclusive, 1923. It happens that during this same period the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, of which Dr. Sadie T. Mossell is National President, and which has some twenty odd chapters with a total membership of approximately five hundred, will also be holding annual convention at Columbus, Ohio, thus bringing together for the first time in Negro college life the largest number of college men and women of the Race at a single event, who are in attendance at the great American Colleges and Universities.
According to the announcement by National Secretary Norman L. McGhee of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the rate reduction is based upon the certificate plan, which provides that when ticket is purchased for the going journey at the straight fare request is made for a certificate which upon valida-

circumstances, often arise, and, as they have no written agreements to govern them in their conduct of meeting and setting the new question, it often happens that neither partner will surrender his own views or opinions to those of his co-partners, or are even willing to meet on half-way ground and effe- ce a compromise—each giving and taking in regard to the course the should pursue.
When such deadlocks take place between partners, the question under consideration are seldom, if ever, settled to the satisfaction of all parties concerned, and as a consequence unpleasant relations arise between them that cause a permanent dissatisfaction and sooner or later the partnership is dissolved with great loss to the business and the partners individually.
In view of the above stated facts it is always necessary and worth the time and money spent to carefully have drawn, partnership agreements, made and signed before you begin to do business together. If these agreements are drawn by an experienced attorney, you will find that they will serve as a guide for you when new questions and difficult problems present themselves, and thereby be a preserver for your business, your money and reputations as business men.

SPEELMAN PAT ON SEGREGATION
(Continued from page 7)
OPPICE FORMERLY HELD BY
NEGROES
Prior to 1920, under Republican
administrations, the office of the
Regulator of the Treasury has invariably
become a full-time office. He has
been creditably filled by B. K.
Bruce, Judson W. Lyons, W. T.
Vernon, J. C. Napier, and others.
Charles Cottill, of Toledo, Ohio, was an avowed candidate for the office after the last inauguration. But as a result of the world war, and during its progress, the business increased to such an extent that the office was too large to be filled by a Negro. The real reason however is race prejudice. As the volume of business increased during the Wilson regime, white clerks were added to the office force and protests against their being put under the control of the cause. Mr. Speelman was finally selected for the job, nominated and confirmed.
UNDER CONTINUAL FIRE
UNDER CONTINUAL FIRE
Since he took the oath of office and assumed his duties, Mr. Speelam has been the object of continual criticism and has crowed practices in vogue in the Register's office, notwithstanding his efforts to appease the colored people by the appointment of a large number of colored clerks and the establishment of a colored section. And now comes these two Negroes seeking to absolve him from responsibility.
J. Silas Harris is from Missouri. He gave up school teaching in his state to become a messenger to Senator Selden P. Spencer. He is the head of a spurious National Educational Congress. He has been instrumental in securing the appointment of a number of colored persons to jobs in the Register's office. Persons, for whom he secures appointments, it is said, are required to join his pretenderization of the job; it is also said that he advertises by pointing to the persons whom he has placed in positions.
Henry E. Hagen is from North Carolina, a former school teacher, but now spends most of his time riding on the railroads. So far as could be ascertained he has no visible means of support. Hitherto he has been a harmless creature. The only reason that can be assigned for the part he is playing is that he is a man from the righteous indignation of Negroes is the desire for nobility.
SEGREGATION STILL EXISTS
SEGREGATION STILL EXISTS
Meanwhile, the beaver board wall erected to segregate the colored clerks of the office of the register of the Treguress of the United States still stand.
This particular wall was erected in April last after Mr. Speelman had begun the appointment of colored clerks. Under W. C. Elliott of Georgia; the colored clerks occupied other quarters: After the number of colored employees was increased, larger quarters became necessary and at the direction of the Speelman they were transferred to the beaver board wall erected to keep them absolutely apart from the white employees.
Objections are also raised to the designation of the section of which Dr. Harris is the head. No other section or division is known by its racial identity. There are the cancelling securities division, division inquiring division, trust ester coupon division, numerical records division, paid securities division, etc. There is no Irish division, no Jewish division, nor any division indicating the racial identity of the parsons employed in it except the colored division. The parsons are huddled together in the ill ventilated section of the divided room with toilets cutting off air window light

Scandals in High Life
Nothing shows more conclusively that "one inch of nature makes the whole world kin," that all of us in one way and another we weaknesses which, if we cannot hold them restraint, will work our undoing, than the ndals in high life which our newspapers ord from week to week. It is common ord. When we turn from our weekly newspaper records to those of the daily newspaper records of the whites, we are surprised the number of scandals in high life which
Nothing shows more conclusively that "one touch of nature makes the whole world kin," and that all of us in one way and another have weaknesses which, if we cannot hold them in restraint, will work our undoing, than the scandals in high life which our newspapers record from week to week. It is common frailty. When we turn from our weekly newspaper records to those of the daily newspaper records of the whites, we are surprised at the number of scandals in high life which they carry. The leading daily newspapers of the country have come to make a feature of such scandals. Sometimes they have two or three divorce scandals going at once to which all sorts of space is devoted. It is a real pain to wade through the moral slush, but millions appear to do it and crave for more, and the poor editor who abhors it has to wade through it or lag behind the times.
We are liable to fall into the error of believing that people are worse than they used to be, because of the wide publicity that is given to scandals, crimes, and lawlessness generally, but we do not think the conclusion is necessarily true. There are more people than there used to be, they live closer together, and the news agencies cover the nation and the world, and what goes on in remotest parts up to 120'clock, all reported in the daily newspaper for information at the breakfast hour, or earlier, if you are hungry for it.
Our weekly newspapers of the week ending October 3, reported three scandals in New York's Harlem to which they gave much space. One of the cases will interest many readers of the JOURNAL and GUIDE because a successful North Carolina physician is mixed up in it. The case is that of Mrs. Sadie Dorsette Tandy wife of Major W. V. W. Tandy, a successful architect, against Dr. U. Conrad Vincent, a prominent young physician, for $50,000, for defamation of character. Many prominent persons in Harlem are incidentally affected by the suit. Mrs. Tandy is the daughter of the late Dr. C. N. Dorsette, of Montgomery, Ala., and Dr. Vincent is the son of Dr. Vincent, late of Raleigh, N. C.
We are just like other people. We have our high and low, our good and bad, our wise and foolish, our rich and poor, and because it is so we have sympathy for all people, of whatever race or group, in their aspiration after that, which is best and most helpful in life. No; we certainly have our scandals in high and low places. So do others. It is a common
Back Up the Christian Work
is quite besides the living question of the triumph of Christian virtue of the triumph of Christian virtue of the Satan and the Devil in the individual and family and the Stata, in order not only to save the individual and save Christian civilization, the last hope for better things for man. Rev C. M. Long's appeal for less church work should appear in the document of the passing of the "Y" quarrel the possession of the Grand United States. The publication of the two the warmth and the fall down of the Y Christian Association work in No. 12izes the gravity of the situation that make Christian people, professional people, realize the fact that a situation rests upon them.
It is a very serious matter that the Y Christian Association work amoumlift fall down after thirty-five years of no do good things in the community not help matters that many things enne the ultimate collapse. The fact here is enough Christian interestorial ability and financial resource us to have made the work a perma- as, as it has been made in other com- larger in population and no 'weak' at it was not done. Failure of the sizes the need of it among us, and will grow with the population and use.
need not take comfort to ourselves, away in interest in church work to afflict Christian mankind everywhere and low places, and that wise men need that Christian civilization is in from the indifference of the people who pressure of non-Christian people what is the case. Instead of allow influence us it should the rather convex the necessity of backing up the church our own good and advantage and good and advantage by our examples. young people should not allow the to be drawn away into the crazy of times towards selfishness and great living, because that way leads, so much of which we see all al- garism protruding its disgusting out of the glare and glitter of the sand and the Sunday-School are the sa- for young people. While the Y may appear irksome, they are not save the young people from their to do the works of Satan and And what are those works? Simi- sation of Christian morality, in which less and greed and riotous living, once and sexual looseness, are the sins. It is our duty to back up to the church, at home and in its service, to save ourselves as well others. Christian people are the light of the work light fail the darkness which lie Africa and Asia and is settling do- erope, will engulf us also. And Churches are staggering in the dark- trief and race discords because they kept the Faith.
It is quite besides the living question of the necessity of the triumph of Christian morals over those of Satan and the Devil in the life of the individual and family and the State and Nation, in order not only to save the individual but to save Christian civilization, the last sufficient hope for better, things for mankind, that Rev C. M. Long's appeal for less apathy in church work should appear in the same issue of the JOURNAL and GUIDE with the announcement of the passing of the "Y" building into the possession of the Grand United Order of Elks. The publication of the two things, the sarmon and the fall down of the Young Men's Christian Association work in Norfolk, emphasizes the gravity of the situation and should make Christian people, professing Christian people, realize the fact that a serious obligation rests upon them.
It is a very serious matter that the Young Men's Christian Association work among us should fall down after thirty-five years of striving to do good things in the community. It does not help matters that many things entered into the ultimate collapse. The fact remains that there is enough Christian interest and managerial ability and financial resources among us to have made the work a permanent success, as it has been made in other communities no larger in population and no wealthier, and that it was not done. Failure of the work emphasizes the need of it among us, and that need will grow with the population and not decrease.
We need not take comfort to ourselves that falling away in Interest in church work appears to afflict Christian mankind everywhere, in high and low places, and that wise men have concluded that Christian civilization is in danger from the indifference of the people within and the pressure of non-Christian people without. That is the case. Instead of allowing it to influence us it should the rather convince us of the necessity of backing up the church work, for our own good and advantage and the reflex good and advantage by our example upon others.
Our young people should not allow themselves to be drawn away into the crazy drift of the times towards selfishness and greed and riotous living, because that way leads to moral death, so much of which we see all about us, vulgarism protruding its disgusting head brazenly out of the glare and glitter of it. The church and the Sunday-School are the safety havens for young people. While the restraints may appear irksome, they are necessary to save the young people from their propensity to do the works of Satan and the Devil. And what are those works? Simply any infraction of Christian morality, in which selfishness and greed and riotous living, intemperance and sexual looseness, are the beet-sitting it. It is our duty to back up the work of the church, at home and in its missionary service, to save ourselves as well as help save others.
Christian people are the light of the world. If that light fail the darkness which has eclipsed Africa and Asia and is settling down upon Europe, will engulf us also. And Christian Nations are staggering in the darkness of unbelief and race discords because they have not kept the Faith.

The action of the Norfolk Chamber of Commerce in sending to Chairman Farley of the United States Shipping Board at Washington a supplementary telegram to the one sent by the stewedores and shipping agents of this port requesting that the board withdraw its recently announced proposal to put into effect at the port of Hampton Roads an hourly rate of seventy-five cents for the loading and discharging of ships under its control, seems to have been an unusual and unprecedented proceeding on the part of the Chamber.
Chambers of Commerce are quasi public bodies and their utterances are invariably construed as being representative of prevailing local sentiment. When the chamber speaks, it is generally understood that the city, itself is speaking thru a semi-official medium.
Union longshoremen of this port are or strike for an increase in pay; and, as a matter of course, the shipping agents and operators propose to break the strike without acceding to union demands. Should the Shipping Board put into effect its announced intention of a rate increase here, this action would seriously weaken the hand of the private ship men in the controversy, at a time when they claim to be winning the strike. Their efforts to forestall such action in Washington and to prevent the weakening of their case was a legitimate move looking to the conservation of their own interests. But for the Chamber of Commerce to throw its influence as a public body to the support of one side and to inveigh against the other side in a labor dispute of private interests seems to constitute a radical departure from its former procedure in like situations. We do not recall an instance in which the United States Chamber of Commerce ever has definitely aligned itself with one side or the other in the many national labor disputes with which our country at various times has been afflicted. We are accustomed to witnessing the able men who make up these bodies adhering closely to a neutral policy in so far as concerns the questions at dispute; using their influence whenever sought in an arbitrary capacity, and jealously guarding the public interests. And in this instance it appears that the Norfolk Chamber of Commerce acted inadvisely in throwing its weight to either side in the longshoremen's strike without giving due consideration to all the interests involved.
The argument may be advanced that our Chamber in acting as it did was actuated purely by a consideration of the best interests of the port; and that the lower cost of handling ship cargo creates a differential decidedly favorable to future port development. Argument along this line overlooks the fact that labor
supply is also a potent factor in accentuating the increase in ocean tonnage passing thru this port. If other shipping centers should be permitted to deplete the labor supply of cheap southern ports thru the allurement of higher wages and union recognition, Norfolk would still be among the sufferers even with its lower loading and unloading costs. And in that event the lower costs would yet be the higher costs, as time in dispatching ships is the most important factor in the expense bill. It is doubtful if we will always be assured of sufficient number of dock workers to handle our increasing shipping business, if the longshoremen should become convinced that they may never hope to enjoy the same status here as that enjoyed by affiliated men in other ports.
For the best interests of the port of Hampton Roads, there is much to be considered on both sides of the present labor controversy.

Bemisnerich a Good Record
From The (Nerfolk) Virginian Plot
Ten unidentified men in King and County have placed a black mark again name of Virginia in the 1922 lynching it By wantonly taking a prisoner from officers and shooting him to death in disregard of all law, they have blotted which might otherwise have been clear.
Ten unidentified men in King and Queen County have placed a black mark against the name of Virginia in the 1923 lynching record. By wantonly taking a prisoner from county officers and shooting him to death in total disregard of all law, they have blotted a page which might otherwise have been clear. The crime with which the prisoner was charged merited the extreme penalty. But he had been arrested and was on his way to jail in the custody of the sheriff and his deputies. There was every reason to expect that he would have received proper punishment as soon as his guilt had been properly established before a judge and jury. For this orderly process of law the members of the group of lynchers—it could not be called a mob—substituted violence. They preferred to disregard the law and order on which the security of society rests and to snatch the Negro away from his legal captors and deal with him themselves.
For this sort of savagery there is no extenuation. King and Queen County bears the odium of having btsmirched a State record from which the citizens of the commonwealth had begun to draw a certain decent satisfaction. The year 1923, as far as official records go, had passed in Virginia without a lynching. Since 1904, the State has averaged less than one lynching a year. The average for the other States possessing large colored populations has been very much higher. While it was at best a melancholy distinction to be less savage than other States, it was a record in which the State was beginning to take pride. The King and Queen performance takes that pride down several pegs. It is an outrage which may properly inspire the King and Queen authorities to hunt out the criminals and bring them into light of day. If it is not yet approved American practice to punish men who commit murder as members of mobs—witness the immunity of the principals at Herrin and Mer Rouge—it ought to serve some useful purpose to make public the names of men capable, in the name of "justice," of shooting to death an untried and unconvicted man while he lay on the ground handcuffed and hobbled.

WHY DO WHITE FOLKS
READ NEGRO PAPERS?
JOHN D. WRAY
Farm Makers' Club-Agent
Greenbore, N. C.
A race of people leading the world in civilization and intelligence, just a hand full of whom govern the greater portion of the universe could ill afford to have a race like that of the Negro developing along beside them, without keeping constantly informed on all it does and says. The answer is that they are not interesting, but there are other reasons why they would like to be generally informed regarding the condition and progress of such a people. It would better enable them to encourage such a movement which would prove a stimulus to better citizenship and it might be, that the progress of the less fortunate would stimulate greater activity on the part of their superiors. At any rate, you will find that the white man not only knows his own race, but usually knows the Negro race, but usually knows the Negro and his history better than the Negro himself. How does he get this information? By reading Negro papers, Negro magazines and books.
Why should a Negro read white papers, magazines, books etc. Could the Negro who is trying to develop citizenship store no to develop citizenship? The holds the place in the world's civilization that the white race does? I should say, he could not. It would be foolish for him to ever think of a thing. Read white papers for goodness sake don't stop there; you must read the papers, magazines and books of your own race.
Why should a Negro read Negro papers, magazines and books? In the first place a 'Negro cannot keep pace with what the Negroes are doing unless he reads the papers magazines or all books. We labor under a serious handicap when we attempt to work without being informed as to the extent the race is progressing. In order to do our best work we must have inspiration, and we cannot be inspired unless we read Negro papers. Why? Because Negroes are doing many wonderful things that we hardly see in our daily lives we are tired and yet they are the ones we should know them, and we are not a well informed people if we do not.
Another reason why the Negro should read the Negro papers, magazines and books, is because our children will never know what the possibilities of their race are without reading Negro literature. Only now and then we see the Negro's ability to read and write for some erime. The children see all the crime of their race under glaring headlines in white papers and can be easily lead to believe that there is nothing to the race to which they belong. All the cuts of famous white men and women are displayed in a most artistic and conspicuous form under great headlines, telling the miracles of the miracles through the eyes on the other side, on the front page of the same paper, there is another big headline telling of some great

crime the Negro has done. Such will chill all the ambition in the child to go forward. He sees the bad and the good the white man dogs and only the evil in the Negro. His conclusions are natural.
Parents you owe it to your children to have not one, but several good Negro papers in your home. You would be surprised to know how it inspires these black boys and girls to read of the great aids and girls to read of the great aids and to see pictures of famous men and women in the papers, are thereby able to see the other side of their people. They are convinced that we are making something else besides criminals. This to my mind, is one of the most important duties of Negro parents. Every Negro child in the spirit of Negro should join in a campaign to boost Negro literature of all kinds and particularly Negro papers and magazines. It will awaken those silent forces that you probably would never have discovered; it will encourage race pride as nothing else would; it would prove a great stimulus to our children; we all desire; it would fire their souls with patriotism as nothing would, I know.
Again I want to say that we should all read white papers, for it is impossible for us to keep a breast with the times unless we do. But, above all, let us read Negro papers and everything pertaining to the Negro people. Let us not allow any other race to know more about us than we know about ourselves.
