June 17—(A. N. P.)—With the Republican Convention over and President Coolidge at the helm, the political pot will begin to actively boil over the entire country. A critical analysis of conditions in the East reveal many new and interesting angles which will be brought into the campaign for Mr. Coolidge's reelection and the election of the National Republican ticket this fall. RACE MEN WERE PROMINENT IN CONVENTION Dr. Geo. W. Cannon, of New Jersey Delivers Seconding Speech; Aaron Malone Put on Notification Committee. OJIEN, WILKERSON, AND TAYLOR ALL SEATED Cleveland, Ohio, June 17—(A. N. P.)—The National Republican Convention assembled in the "Western Reserve" of the glorious Buckeye State, will go down in history as the beginning of a new era, in Republican politics. Somewhat after the fashion of chronologist we shall in the future date political happenings in two periods—"before" and "after," beginning with June 1924. Shorn of its accustomed excitement and concern over the presidential nomination, with only the rebellious contest for the vice president in prospect, the National Committee—with the warning Old Guard in the saddle, met in apathetic mood to hear the quadrennial contests from the South. There was less enthusiasm evident than in a ward meeting. Only the set faces of the colored delegates and the grim line of their tips heralded the tempestuous sessions that were to be. OLD GUARD FORSAKES LILY-WHITES Whether from a resolve to use the utmost care in this year of grace, or because of the looming shadow of Robert Marion LaFollette, plus the tremendous muster of new voters in the North with denched fists raised menacingly, the National Republican Committee renegagued. It scrapped its bithertock pronounced readiness to greet the Lily-white with the quickening welcome song "Hail, Hail, the gang's all here." The Philips faction of Georgia stormed. Multivibil squirmed, threatened to carry his fight to the convention floor. Warmouth, ex-governor of Louisiana waxed悔ment. But Link Johnson's Georgia cohorts, the black and tans of Mississippi, led by the shrewd Perry Howard, patient, untiring Walter Cohen, and Taylor and Wilkerson of Tennessee were all sented. And almost was the pliable committee persuaded to lend willing ear to ever fighting Bill McDonald from the Long Star reserve. Perry Howard, of Jackson, Miss., was named national committeeman, and Mrs. E. B. Boozz, the daughter of the late Isaiah T. Montgomery, was named committeewoman from Mississippi. Col Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia was again (Continued on Page Six) In the first place this national campaign is going to find the colored man less Republican in principle as well as in faith than any other campaign has ever found him. This is particularly true in New York city and New York State. The reasons are obvious, but chief among them is the remarkable cordiality which the Democratic party under the influence of Tammany Hall has greeted the influx of our people into its fold. Another important factor which is certain to play a prominent part in this year's national campaign is the Ku Klux Klan. And this same K. K. K is another reason for drawing away from the Grand Old Party a vast number of colored people in the East. While not generally known, the Klan is well organized in New York, but, because of the head of the city administration and the majority of his fellow officials, the Klan has not been able to get far in its activities in New York. But the fact that the majority of prominent Democratee Catholics and therefore of the Klan offers an added inducement for the joining of forces with them by colored people. vention will hold its Jubilee Session in Lynchburg next week, June 24-29. This will be a most eventful convening of the Baptist members of this convention in that every Sunday school, B. Y. P. U. and Missionary Society affiliated with that body is expected to represent and give impetus to a drive that will keep progressing the spirit of the Virginia Baptist State Convention with its ideals and objects for another seven years. Being the second jubilee anniversary does not mark only 14 years of activity in the denomination by the affiliated members of this convention, but it does mark the second seven year period since it became customary to divide the era of activities in such periods. Euthanasia is rife for the coming event, and when the ideals of the Virginia Baptist State Convention are considered, it is rightly so. Virginia Seminary and College, a recognized theological institution, whose graduates are occupying some of the most prominent pulpits in the country under Baptist control, is a prodigue of this convention—it is its ward, its life blood is kept on continuous pulsation largely through the efforts of this body—and it is on the campus, between the walls of that institution the Substantial Jubilee will be held. Money is to REPUBLICAN OFFICIALS INDIFFERENT One of the most important factors in the defection from the ranks of the Republican party in New York and the East in general, has been the indifference of Republican leaders in this section. With the colored man visibly drifting away, they have made little if any effort to stop him and bring him back. That, they have left to public spirited men of the race to whom the very thought of a black man casting a ballot for the Democrat president is distasteful. Were the election to be held this week, it is doubtful that this state could be carried for the Republican party and the city would be apt to return the same overwhelming democratic major that it did two years ago when the present Democratic governor beat the unpopular republican candidate for reelection as the State's chief executive. Luckily, the election is several weeks away and ample time is afforded the Republican party to organize and coordinate its forces in New York-State and the East in general. Indicationh point clearly to a close and spirited election. It may be so close as to make every vote in every state count and to save New York's forty-five electoral votes it may be necessary to gather every vote of the colored man's that can possibly be gathered. In doing this these will be carefully studied and worked on rather than the old time calling on the "faith of our fathers" etc. At heart, the race man in New York is not Democratic but he has learned to go where his economical condition can be better politically. Similar conditions prevail in the State of New Jersey where a staunch Republican senator was last year beaten because he saw fit to make prohibition his stand. Here too, is another angle which is certain to creep into the campaign this fall and it will get as hearty a hearing from the colored voter as it will from the opposite race. That prohibition is unpopular in the East is well known (Continued on Page Six) NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1924 WHITE MEN STICK-UP RELIGIOUS FANATIC COLORED TAXI DRIVER AMUCK IN CHURCH Distinguished Members of the Denomination Will Vie With the Crowd at Virginia Seminary and College. SECOND SEVENTH YEAR EVENT BEING OBSERVED To celebrate the second Jubilee anniversary—which means the end of another seven years of progress—the Virginia State Baptist Convention will hold its Jubilee Session in Lynchburg next week, June 24-29. This will be a most eventful convening of the Baptist members of this convention in that every Sunday school, B. Y. P. U. and Missionary Society affiliated with that body is expected to represent and give impetus to a drive that will keep progressing the spirit of the Virginia Baptist State Convention with its ideals and objects for another seven years. Being the second jubilee anniversary does not mark only 14 years of activity in the denomination by the affiliated members of this convention, but it does mark the second seven year period since it became customary to divide the era of activities in such periods. Enthusiasm is rife for the coming event, and when the ideals of the Virginia Baptist State Convention are considered, it is rightly so. Virginia Seminary and College, a recognized theological institution, whose graduates are occupying some of the most prominent pupils in the country under Baptist control, is a prodigue of this convention—it is its ward, its life blood is kept on continuous pulsation largely through the efforts of this body—and it is on the campus, between the walls of that institution the Sabbatical Jubilee will be held. Money is to be raised for the seminary, and money will be raised for it. The Baptists have pledged it, and those pledges will be collected during the session. All indications point to a record-breaking occasion. Special reduced rates have been granted by all the railroads in Virginia and the District of Columbia. Delegates will be there representing every Baptist church. S. S., B. Y. P., U. and Missionary Society connected with this great convention. Large numbers of visitors are also expected from Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island and W. Virginia. Distinguished Visitors Among the men and women of distinction who will be in attendance appear such names as Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the WHITE MEN STICK-UP COLORED TAXI DRIVER Stick Up Men Approach Cabby In Ford Touring and Relieves Him of Night Fares While driving his cab along Twenty-first street at Colonial avenue, Sunday morning at 1:45 o'clock, Henry Owens, $24 Chapel street, an employee of the Black and White Taxicab Company, was held up by two white men who after poking a blue steel pistol in his face relieved him of his fares amounting to $12.20. Owens told the police that the robbers approached him riding in a Ford touring car. They ordered him to stop, at the same time flashing the pistol. When he brought his car to a standstill, he was immediately informed of the intention of the men, who proceeded to rob him. Detectives have been on the search of the highwaymen ever since, but no trace of them has been uncovered. Archdeacon Russell, Mrs. J. B. Barrett, Dr. Sara Brown and Mrs. Henry Lane Schmeltz, Princip'l Speakers SESSIONS TO BE HELD IN VARIOUS CHURCHES The State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs will convene in Nottell, Tuesday, June 24 to Friday, June 27.

Church; Wednesday, Queen Street Baptist Church; Thursday, Bank Street Baptist Church; Friday, First Baptist Bute Street. The public is cordially invited to attend all of these sessions. It is hoped that the citizens of Norfolk will show their interest, in this worthy work by attending all of the meetings in large numbers. All women's fraternal organizations are requested to attend the opening session Tuesday night in a body. Large representations are expected from various church auxiliaries. Tuesday night is to be Norfolk's night when the welcome addresses will be delivered. The choir of St. John's Church and the Stellar Symphony Orchestra will render the music. On Wednesday night the president, Mrs. Jamie P. Barrett will make her annual address. Thursday night Arch-deacon James S.

A., will stage an exhibit and pageant at the Church Home Grounds, Lindenwood. Friday, June 27th, at 4 o'clock. Music will be furnished by the band of St. Joseph's School. Overcome By Religious Sentiment Declares He Has Commission to Clean Up. Pittsburgh, Pa., June 19.—(P. N. S.): John Butler, aged 49 years, said by the police to be demented ran amuck in Calvary Episcopal Church Thursday and broke windows and chairs. Butler was seen running around the lawn in front of the church, carrying a basket in which was a flag wrapped in paper and which he wanted to display in some prominent place, according to police. The man, the police say continues to rave, declaring "God gave me the key to the city and I am going to clean it up." Butler is a leader in a local church drive and is a religious fanatic, the police claim. MRS. JANIE PORTER BARRETT, President of State Federation of Women's Clubs and head of the Girls' Industrial Home at Peake's, Va., an institution founded and supported by the Federation. The Layman Act, Virginia's new prohibition law went into effect Monday morning. It is provided with biting teeth, which its frumers believed would wipe out boot-legging in this state. Whether it will accomplish the desired purpose is yet a question. There are many who realize that drastic punishment in most cases, is a deterrent to the obtaining of jury convictions. Some of the Teeth in the Layman Act Possession of one drop of one drop of liquor in the home is unlawful, unless legally acquired, which means acquired on a physician's prescription, or before state prohibition. Bail bond of $50.00 required for plain drunkenness. Costs of court may be multiplied ten times in such cases. Ninety days in jail upon conviction and fined, provided fine of from $5.00 to $10.00 is not paid. Police officer entitled to $10.00 upon each conviction; $25.00 upon conviction of person transporting liquor in a vehicle. Commonwealth's attorney entitled to $25.00 fee upon final conviction or $5.00 if prisoner pleads guilty in Police Court. Mandatory jail sentences for persons convicted of violating the act—suspended sentences not within discretion of judges. Both fine and jail term for persons convicted of operating automobile under the influence of liquor. Search of premises by officer without search warrant is a misdemeanor. Drastic punishment provided for guilty officer. Murder charges against persons accused of selling liquor which causes death to the drinker. Buyer of whiskey made equally culpable with the seller. 72 RECEIVE DIPLOMAS AT BOOKER T. HIGH Dr. John M. Gandy Tells Class to "Go Forth Aand Lead The People."

RAGE WOMAN ON G.O.P. NATIONAL COMMITTEE Mrs. Mary C. Booze, of Mound Bayou, Named Committeewoman From Mississippi. Cleveland, O., June 18.—Mrs. Mary C. Booze, of Mound Bayou, Miss., was elected as a Republican National Committeewoman, here last Thursday from Mississippi. She is said to be the first race woman to be thus honored and will serve with Hon. Perry W. Howard, assistant Attorney General of the United States, who has been elected committeeman. The honor was conferred upon Mrs. Booze because of her distinguished ability and marked capabilities as a leader in her state. She was not at the convention. ST. JOSEPH'S SCHOOL ISSUES CERTIFICATES ST. JOSEPH'S SCHOOL ISSUES CERTIFICATES Brilliant Commencement Exercises Bore Testimony to School's Usefulness. The annual commencement exercises of the St. Joseph's Catholic School were held Monday night in the Armory. The spacious building was packed, and standing room was at a premium at an early hour. Twenty grammar school diplomas were awarded to the graduating class, and one prize for scholarship honors. Many gifts were distributed. The growing popularity of the school was evidenced in the size and enthusiasm of the audience which showed its interest and appreciation by alert attention and prolonged applause during and after each rendition. Before the program began, Rev. V. D. Warren, S. J., pointed out the purposes of the school and some of the work it was doing outside of the class room. As examples he gave the organization of St. Joseph's high school hand and St. Joseph's Girls' Orchestra as steps towards making the boys and girls more responsible and better able to care for themselves. The skill and understanding with which these two school organizations rendered their respective selections bore testimony to the value of such training. After hearing and seeing the work of this school's pupils one does not wonder why St Joseph's has become so popular with the people of Norfolk. Two selection were rendered by the band and two by the girls or (Continued on Page Six) 7 CENTS At All News Stands and By Carriers ION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR ATH In East SEEKS RELIEF FROM ILLNESS BY TAKING LIFE Delicious From Severe Illness Seeks Death As an End To Long Suffering Despite Vigilance of Inmates. RASH ACT CATCHES OTHERS OFF GUARD Delirious from the effects of severe and protracted illness, Mrs. Puth Selden, middle-aged, 1221 Church street, managed to get to the front window of her home on the second floor of the above address Saturday night at 12 o'clock and threw herself out to the pavement below. Just what part of her body struck the sidewalk first has not been ascertained. She was picked up unconscious and bleeding from severe lacerations over the right eye, also suffering probable internal injuries. Sunday morning theyman died at St. Vincent's Hospital, where she had been rushed for treatment. Mrs. Selden lived at the Church street address with her husband. For several weeks she had been seriously ill, it is claimed, and also closely watched, it was not felt that she had become so unbalanced as to endanger her own life. It is said her rash act was committed during one of the moments when inmates of the house were off guard. Her funeral was held at the First Baptist Church, Wednesday. UNSEEN JOKERS PUT IODINE IN COFFEE Victims In Serious Condition As Result Of Drinking Concoction. Shamokin, Pa., June 19—(A. N. P.)—John Kerrigan, white, of Moore, and Walter Harrington, colored of Pottsville, were made the victims of a serious joke while at work yesterday at the mine. They are both in a serious condition at their homes as the result of drinking coffee that had iodine mixed in it. Up to a late hour last evening their condition was reported as being serious. During the absence of the two men while at work, it is claimed that someone molested their lunches and poured out some of the coffee and put iodine in its place. The two ate their dinners and afterward became violently ill. They were administered first aid by the colliery crew after which a physician was called. It is not known who the person or persons are who performed the trick but an investigation is going on and the culpits will be punished. The two bottles that the men used were sent to a chemist and he will analyze the contents. Japanese Refuses Diploma Because Of Exclusion Chester, Pa., June 19—(A. N. P.)—Kuranoske Fujiji, a Japanese student at Crozer Theological Seminary, refused a diploma at the commencement exercises, although his name was included among the graduates. In a letter written to Mr. Milten Evans, president of the School, Fujiji said: "Since the Japanese Exclusion Bill we Japanese students begin to ask ourselves when Christianity has ever got a real spiritual and moral power on the general policy of the nation. So long as such an exclusion measure is imposed upon us in the so-called Christian country or nation, the American missionary work in Asia will have the most difficult situation with regard to teaching of Christianity to the natives, and to be sure the intelligent people of Asia will make mock of such an undertaking." ea en ee PAGE TWO |, ETS. = it JOCIELY .

Condy, having bgen porter for all these years, never had any time for polities. "But he was always a great admirer of the tate Col. and rode with him and took care of his luggage during his trips to and from Albany while he was Governor of New, York The Colonel always had 2 cheerful word for Condy and was always interested in his views on the ques: tions of the day and, things in en: eral, Condy is well known to the Teg: islative correspondents who have heen making trips for years to the capital, but he knows and reveres Governor Smith better than any- body who travels on his train. He waited on the Governor in the days when he was a member of the As: sembly and while he was Speaker of the House and still later, when he was twice Governor. Never 2 trip to or from the exaital when the Governor eauygnt Condy’s train that the two were not in conver: sation, and Une Governor knows how intelligent. the porter is and his. knowledge of xeneral affairs Condy has lived in the Brons for many years and js the father of nine children, the eldest of whom a girl, was graduated fast year and the proud father sent her pic. ture to the Governor. Perhaps it was the fact that Condy had nine children that a bond of friendshiy was established between him anc the Governor.

He served in the Union army during the Civil war, and a soldier's marker stands on the grave. This bears a small American flag, while a large bou- quet rests by its side.

The diminutive youngsters did the actual work of climbing the chimneys and cleaning them.

BERNARD YOUNG, JR. All the predictions, guesses, and surmises pertaining to the final choices of the Olympic team have either been proved correct or mistaken. Last week in Boston the final tests in track and field were held and the chief interest for us was how many of the dark skinned athletes would negotiate the trip to France. Five have won the honor on the track and field squad. They are now out on the deep blue sea on the specially chartered and prepared boat America. Every possible thing has been done for the athletes to keep them in training until they get to France. ed 24 feet once or twice this year but even with his active participation in competition he was unaware to do better than Gourdin, who did not done any active work for the years. With these great jump America can, as this column shows, before, put down her broad jump points now, and probably a new record. America's Hope Earl Johnson came back recorder to win the ten mile championship. At one time it was rumored that old age had Johnson, but Johnson has fooled them all by adding victory in the cross country to his many wins. With the DeHart Hubbard Not a single person in these United States ever doubted the ability of DeHart Hubbard, the jumping wonder from Michigan, to make the team. Hubbard has set a record that we think will be standing many a long day from now. Even in this record breaking age we still hold that there is only one man who can jump twenty-five or more feet a half dozen times in fact any time he chooses. That is what Hubbard does. About the Limit And let us digress a moment. Has the athlete reached his limit in athletic competition? Can such records as the dashes, jumps vaults, and weight event records be broken? We answer yes. The proof is the fact that now a record is made one day and broken the next. In the final tryouts in Boston, one Jackson Scholz broke a record, as the dashes, jumps the very next day. Under the stimulus of such things as making an Olympic team we predict that some day even the record of 9 3-5 seconds for the century dash will be broken. Of course the man who does it must be 100 per cent in condition and mental state—which by the way has a lot to do with athletic accomplishment. Illustration Now back to Hubbard. Hubbard jumped 25 feet 3-8 inches in his first leap at Boston and that mark was never approached. His nearest competitor was Ned Gourdin; another dusky athlete, the world's record holder. Gourdin made a leap of 23 feet ten and a traction inches. That in itself shows Hubbard's supremacy in the broad jump. And it also shows that Hubbard will eventually break the existing record because of his consistency. Comins of Yale jump- New York, June 19—(P. N. S.)—Sitting at the Wills-Madden fight last Monday night, Georges Carpentier, famous French pugilist, was not very much impressed with the showing of Madden. According to Carpentier, Wills is his pick to win over Dempsey, where the two meet. Carpentier flayed Madden for his continual holding-on tactics. KOLLEGE ID SAYS-- Tis a funny thing, but I notice that justly the bathing beach sen- sors is always homely wimmin and if it is a man, he's got a homely bitter half Cause them sensoring babies aint got the grace and figures that will make a l piece b aithing suit worth look, at, why, they don't want the o t her dames show their selves off to adven O One guy sez, that the more you do to a Ford to make it look like what it aint, the more it look like what it is.

He sez, that sint nothing. If she didnt shet her eyes, she couldnt ever kissed you. Another Bozo sez: Roses is red violets too. Wills beat Madden black and blue. Then he went on to say: Violetts is blue and roses is red, Dempsey could knock either one dead All I gotta say bout this is, Flowers is pretty an boxing gloves aint. If Wills hit Dempsey he's sure gotta faint. An I'll say in conclusion, Doing's the thing, talk's cheap, Wills' knock Dempsey in the middle 'O next week.

With these great jumpers America can, as this column said before, put down her broad jump points now, and probably a new record. America's Hope Earl Johnson came back recently to win the ten mile championship. At one time it was rumored that old age had Johnson, but Johnson has fooled them all by adding a victory in the cross country run to his many wins. With these scals hanging on his belt, he has gone to the Olympics, America's hope in the 10,000 meters flat and 10,000 cross country run. Earl has the prayer of America behind him, because she is weak in these events—as far as quantity goes, but Johnson has the quality in his wiry legs to run the best of them to the finish. Two others won places on the team. They were Hussey and Brookins. Both are sensational runners and America has placed hope in them. West's Case West failed to make the grade in the Pentathlon. For some unaccountable reason West was not up to his usual standard—but somebody had to remain. West has nothing to feel very bad over, however, for he has won the event twice at the Penn games. He must remember that he was against seasoned veterans who had won the event in their days in school. By the time the next game come off, he will be the veteran and therefore more able to win. Experience means everything. Local Athletes Norfolk is awakening to become its real self in athletics at last. One group of energetic men have organized a tennis club and built some fine courts, while others have organized a baseball club. Football has been here a long while and under the guiding influence of certain well known men has done excellently. Who knows but with this present progress Norfolk will soon be represented at the National tournaments and will have big and regularly played games here. On this page there is an article dealing with Wills and his status and handicaps. It is interesting and enlightening. Read it. FOUL GIVES VICTORY TO LARRY ESTRIDGE New York, June 19—(P. N. S.)—Larry Estridge of Harlem won from Tommy Robson of Malden Mass., on a foul in the seventh round of a scheduled 12-round bout at the Pioneer A. C. Friday night Robson was disqualified for hitting low. Estridge, who weighed 157½ was seven pounds lighter than his opponent. Some folks see, in Union there's strength—how about onions? There was a bird who was proposing to his sweetie and he got down on his knees and sez to her, "dear I love you so hard that my heart's burnt a holt in my undershirt." Then he sez, "please say the word that will make me the happiest man in the wide, wide world." The dame sez, No! Oh baby! this fellow jumps for glee, cause he was he happiest gink in the world. I always wisht my bitter half had said that word, but the poor dumbdora wouldn't not. Don't tell her I told you. A friend of mine told me the other day that he had a cornet and I told him that wont nuthing. My old man's horse had a cornet. He calls me a phool and sumthing else that would take a good size paragraph to write, an sez how could a blame horse have a cornet? Well, I sez, after I come to the city I went to the country to visit my dad and he showed me around the place and how he feeds the animals. He took a bag of corn with 'im, and first he stoped at the horse stable and gives the horse sum, then he goes an gives the hogs some and he goes an gives the cows sum. Well, we come on back by the horse stable to see how he was getting on an HE HAD THE CORN ET. "Rocks on the mountain fish in the sea, a garbage man's daughter made a dump outta me."

EDITOR KEEP FAMY WILLS TARGET OF MANY DOUBLE-BARRELED SHOTS New York, June 19—(P. N. S.)—Is Harry Wills, the brown panther of New Orleans, a victim of the prejudiced hatred of daily newspaper sport scribes? This is an opinion which has taken foothold and gained ground in many section of the country following the apparently biased reports of the fight with Bartv Madden last Monday night at the Queensboro Stadium. Wills, who allowed Madden to go the entire route of 15 rounds is being made the target of many double-barreled shots from the pens of the "gentry" who keep sporting interest alive. Ere the match, Wills was touted and boasted as Dempsey's most dangerous rival. But even then, the word, was going round that Wills would have to knock out Madden in less than six rounds in order to create a public demand for him. was not a passed whistle when Dempsey accomplishes Herma promoter reporter twice when the possition Wills and my opinion never be their man of prom wrangling have a apart." SAINT TH FACTS IN THE CASE / Now here are the facts in the case: (1) The Madden fight was Wills' first bout in nine month. (2) Wills' hand, injured in January has not yet recovered its full strength, and he was working with an idea to protect this mitt as much as possible. (3) Madden is one of the toughest Irishmen in the fight game, and some question of his hardness of head can be perceived, when it is a recognized fact that he has never been knocked off his feet, much less knocked out. (4) Madden, if reports are true, was greatly aided by the referee. It is said that Madden went into the ring to stay 15 rounds. Wills, whose fighting tactics have been the subject of much discussion, was breaking clean as a whistle, yet he continually heard in his ears, the warning sound of the referee's words as he said, "fight clean Wills." Madden, on the other hand, hung on and hung on, and despite Wills' plea to the referee, these tactics prevailed throughout the fight. Wills, in a statement after the fight, said he only target he had to shoot at was Madden's hard head, and he took no chances with that. REMEMBER DEMISEY AND GIBBONS These are the facts in the case. But immediately, a mighty howl goes from the assembled ranks of the scribes, declaring that Wills is through, that he is as slow as a truck horse, and that he has lost his punch. In short, they attempt to make a hero out of Midden and a farmer out of Wills. REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED At the end of the fight, Gibbons, still on his feet, and fighting buck, had given Jack Dempsey one of had given Jack Dempsey one of the hard battles of his career. Dempsey had not been fighting for more than a year. But, was Dempsey declared a goner? Was Gibbons touted to the skies? NO, most emphatically no. They alibied and said that Dempsey was working for another big bout. Dempsey was, and still is the champion. That's the difference. Then, not more than a month ago, Gibbons was unable to knock out Georges Carpentier, at Michigan City, Ind. DID PADDY MULLINS ERE While most of the writers are riding Wills, some are placing the blame for Wills' seeming swing on the downward path to the dumb management of Paddy Mullins, his manager. Mullins knew the stuff of which Madden was made. He also knew that it was possible for him to have secured easier fight- ers for Wills until such time as that individual had become acclimated, as it were. Mullins, all along the line, has been the subject for se- vere criticism. Wills has been "patiently waiting" for more than four years for a chance to meet Dempsey. He has been cast aside and seen men like Carpentier, Fir- po come from across the pond and then depart for their native homes after being boaten, with nice sized fortunes tucked away in their money belts. These interested in Wills believe that had the "Panther" fought his way through all corners, or consistently trailed Dempsey and his manager, Jack Kearns, public opinion, voiced through the newspapers would have caused a show-down long before this. Either Wills would have been the world's champion, or he would have been given the opportunity to prove that he was not a chanm. Now, Wills has passed his prime, and it is a question whether, even if he fights Dempsey, what he will be able to accomplish. Herman Taylor, famous fight promoter of Philadelphia, told a reporter of the Preston News Service when asked what he thought of the possibilities of a match between Wills and Dempsey, that "It is in my opinion that these two men will never box, as you know yourself their managers and quite a number of prominent promoters have been wrangling for years and this will have a tendency to keep them apart." SAINTS DISPOSE OF THE ELKS HANDILY In a return game, the Delberville Industrial School, "The Saints" decisively and soundly whipped the Eurucka Lodge No. 5 (Elks) at League Park Thursday, by a score of 14 to 3. The all round team work of the "Saints" in batting, fielding, base running and throwing was a stonewall defense. In an effort to stop the "Saints," the Elks used three pitchers without avail, as the "Saints" hit, bunted, and stole bases when they pleased. Wagner, although touched for 6 safeties, kept them scattered. Bibbins was the individual star for the Elks, accepting 6 out of 7 chances at short.

English Experts With Color Problem New York, N. Y., June 19—(A. N.

Mr. Herrick is a contributing editor of The Nation and author of various novels, of which the latest, called "Waste," has just appeared. He found himself not long ago on the British Island of Caracou, in the Carribean—an island whose population of about 2,000 consists of colored people and a more handful of white officials. "I had no preconceived formulas about the race question," he writes, "and so I give what I saw and felt for what it may be worth." "I had two stock questions that I put to the white officials—'How many crimes of violence have occurred in your jurisdiction in the last two years?' Sometimes they had to go back four and five years to find a case of first class assault or murder. Compare that with any rural district of a similar density of population, OFFICE SALES A (Innear Distinctive Of Typewriters 121 W.

My other question was: 'Can a white woman of the upper class go safely anywhere at any time of day or night, in your island unescorted?' The answer to this was a share of surprise. 'Of course! why not?' The English government, says Mr. Herrick wants the Negroes who live in places like Caracas, under British rule, to govern themselves loyally. His account of his visit is sufficient testimony to the success of the plan. He will take up French colonies in an article about the island of Martíneu, to appear in the Nation next week.

SMALL-POX TE STUTTGART Stuttgart, Ark., June 18—(P. N. S.)—Health officer, W. R. Richardson, reports that he has discovered in the extreme southeastern part of this city a Negro man suicides from smallpox. This is said to be the second sase of this disease reported here this year. --- New York City, June 16–Six Negroes, by virtue of their sixplied showing in the final Olympic tryouts held here recently and at Cambridge Friday and Saturday, sailed today on the steanship America, chartered especially for the trip, to France to represent the United States in the 1924 Olympic Games to be held in Paris next month. Hubbard won the running broom jump in his first leap with a brilliant leap of 25 feet 3-8 inches. This leap was never approached during the remainder of the tryouts; the nearest competitor being another Negro had, Ned Gourdin, the world's record holder with a jump of 25 feet 3 inches. Gourdin jumped with a jump of 25 feet 10-2 inches, which placed Hubbard way ahead of the best in his event. R. Earl Johnson of Pittsburgh, in winning the cross country run last week in the Olympic finals in New York and the ten mile championship recently, placed himself on the team. He is entered in the 10,000 meters flat and the 10,000 meters cross country. John Johnson's championship in every distance run from three miles to ten. CHARLES BROOKINS Charles Brookins, who until recently was classed as a Negro, won a place on the 400 meter hurdle race. He has at one time denied that he was colored, but his racial identity has never been definitely settled. He recently broke his own record for the 220 yards hurdle race around one turn. Francis Hussey, sensational center, was placed on the team by proving his mettle against the world's greatest sprinters in his first test in competition with them. His running has made him a great favorite in and around New York City. WEST FINALLY CHOSEN In the first selections Charles West, Washington and Jefferson star athlete, was not chosen. However, he has been chosen and is a member of the squad for the time. He will be the college pentathlon at the Penn Games. Several other additions were made to the team, while three of those chosen did not report. They were William Healey of Phillips Andover Academy, who was one of the qualifiers in the javelin throw, Jens Jenson, United States Army, who qualified in the 300-meter steeplechase, of C.A.Z. University, who qualified in the 16-pound shot, Healy not make the trip on account of family reasons, Jensen did not completed his American citizenship, while Eastman, who picked as a spare, decided not to go. Many other race lads made remarkable showings, but failed to be chosen. Only in a few cases were the choices other than the first four in each event. Washington of the 100 yard dash, but according to reports, he was sixth in the running hop, step, and jump with a jump of 45 feet and six inches. WILLS STILL CONSIDERED DANGEROUS WILLEY A. JOHNSON, JR. Too much stock cannot be put in the chirping of some of the sport seribes, where our group is concerned. Some of them are so blamed that they cannot die in a bed straight. It has always been their intentions to keep the Senegambians down and chase them out of the running; but once in a while, few of our Caucasian brothers step to the fore and give the public their unbiased opinion on the dusty athletes. There are just a few of them, who do not care whether or not the world's champion is black, blue, green, red, white or what not, whether he was born with or without him. The following is what Grantland Rice, one of the country's leading sport authorities has to say about the case of Wilts: THE CASE OF WILLS For the last two years Harry Wills has done little fighting, the long lapses being due to lack of opponents and to bad hands. Lack of practice in the profession of punching has slowed Wills down a lot. He has looked to be much slower in his last two fights, including the Madden affair, and this slowing down has taken away a lot of his old effectiveness. The Wills that met Madden was not the Wills that kneeled out Fulton, and this is taking nothing away from Madden, who has as much gameness and durability as "Battling" Nelson ever had. Wills can still pound with his punches, but they no longer come with the old snap and crash. Perhaps a long training spell might back again, but Wills is not a kid. He is still a good defensive boxer and his weight, height reach and great-stretch make him danger- ous, but he is showing nothing approaching the Dempsey speed upon attack. And speed is one of the most important of all the mixtures that make up a winning assault. **BLOWS SLOW COMING** It took Wills twelve rounds to hit Hadden with his first clean punch, and beyond any beyond a chop. This punch or wallah had a lot of if, but it was a long time coming. It might be that no one can knock out Bartley Madden in five ee rounds, for Bartley is tough, rough, game, and hard to hurt. He is about as easy to dent as a hydrant. Yet when Wills landed the short chop and jolt time and again same blow that dropped "Kid" had no effect whatever upon the scrapy Irishman. Either Madden is live or six times tougher than "Kid" Norfolk or Wills has lost much of the old snap that once accompanied his shorter blow. LACK OF COMPETITION Lack of competition, which has slowed down. Wills will have the same effect upon Dempsey in a car or two. No one can lay on too long and keep the vital spark still flaming. Especially after one has passed the age of thirty Dempsey in a year orchidfentwfly Dempsey hasn't reached thirty yet, but he isn't many strides away. The Madden fight may do Wills a lot of good, and it will be interesting to see him against a fister, biging to see him against a faster bigger man, such as George Godfrey, the Leilerville Larruper. A Wills-Godfrey party would be something to look at in the way of competition designed to bring about a test. WILLS STILL DANGEROUS Wills looks slow in the Madden fight, but he is still dangerous. Weight, strength, reach, power and experience are not to be laughed into. Some time after Corbett had lost his title and h slipped it took Jim Jeffries 23 rounds to ynock him out, and Corbett had gathered most of the points through the first 22 rounds. Perhaps it might be just as well to give Tom Gibbons and Barbie Madden their share of the night position in the resin for 12 years—and one has met Dempsey while the other has met Wills. Well-Known Coach Visits Guide Office Mr. H. C. Graves, the athletic director and coach of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute of Petersburg and former star of the Michigan "Aggies" visited the plant of the Journal and Guide during the week. He will probably remain in the city during the summer months before resuming his work at the institute. Virginia Normal won the baseball championship of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association and had a fairly successful football season during the season. She bought bid for baseball honors next year. How-await, she will be without her pitching ace, Armstead. The institute will start football early this coming season and prospects are for a formidable team. With his co-workers Mr. Graves expects to put out just as good teams next season as the past.

A Superior Baking Powder on the Market Housewives who have an eye to economy and a high regard of perfect baking, especially in the family bread, should turn to page seven and read carefully every claim made for Calumet Baking Powder in the advertisement on that page. Assurances have come from the users of this powder that is measures up to all that is claimed for it, and has gained a tremendous popularity in this city. Calumet Baking Powder, like most modern discoveries, is said to have been evolved out of years of laboratory experiments and tests. This painstaking labor was directed toward only one objective—the producing of a perfect bread leavener, one that could be relied upon even by the inexperienced housewife. And like most modern discoveries it has proved a boon to humanity. If there is merit in the praise given to this powder by tried users in this city, certainly it is a superior product.

"The repentant malefactor," said he, "rpersents the great body of the redeemed church, which has harkened to the voice of the Redeemer, and who have repented of their sins; while the cross of Christ stands as the emblem of holiness and perfection." MT. LEBANON BAPTIST Services Sunday were good and spiritual, beginning with the early morning prayer meeting which was largely attended. At 9:30 a.m., the Sunday school convened with the teachers and scholars in their places. At 11:30 a.m., Rev. F. W. Jacobs, associate pastor of First Baptist Church, delivered a sermon which was enjoyed by all. In the afternoon the pastor, choir and congregation worshipped at Bank Street Baptist Church.

He has traveled extensively and holds degrees from several of the leading Colleges and Universities of England. He is an eloquent speaker and holds his audience spellbound as he paints vivid pictures of African life, tells gripping stories of African traits and customs. Dr. Angeddy speaks again at the First Baptist Church Monday night. June 16 at 8 o'clock, giving first hand information concerning Africa. Those who failed to hear Dr. Angeddy missed one of the most interesting lectures of the year. Mrs. Ollie E. Harrell, wife of Dr. James A. Harrell, left Sunday for Manassas Industrial School to attend summer normal. Sunday night, June 15, Dr. Jas. A. Harrell preached the annual sermon of the combined usher boards of the churches of Suffolk at the First Baptist Church. He preached from Psalms 137:6-7. He chose as his subject "The Church Remembered." A good crowd was present and a liberal offering was raised. Evangelist Rev. J. R. Askew, D. D., will pleach at the Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, Sunday, June 22, at 3 p.m. Subject: "No harm in Base Ball and Bobbed Hair." FIRST BAPTIST B. Y. P. U. The Senior B. Y. P. U., of the First Baptist Church held its first prayer meeting for the summer months last Sunday, June 15 at 5:30 p.m. m., Rev. Junius Fuller presiding. The meeting proved to be very interesting. Invitation is extended to all to join our B. Y. P. U. Vital Point of the B. Y. P. U. will be the topic for discussion for Sunday, June 22. This is for the Junior B. Y. P. U. Every body is invited to take part in the discussion. JOHN WESLEY M. E. Next Sunday the pastor will preach at the eleven o'clock hour on "The Only Thing God Forgets." Hebrews 10:17. At eight o'clock he will preach the first of a series of sermons on "Opening the seven scals," Rev. 5:2. On last Sunday the services all day were well and enthusiastically attended. The Sunday school under the management of Mr. Thomas is growing in interest and attendance. The prayer meetings are largely attended, and the members are taking more interest in them than ever before. MT OLIVE BAPTIST MT. OLIVE BAPISTI In keeping with the present administration's policy; that if the child is taught to be liberal to religious efforts the future church will have less financial difficulties; the Sunday school is developing into a powerful factor along financial as well as instructive lines, all of which was clearly demonstrated Sunday when 116 scholars reported nearly twelve dollars. The morning service was a source of inspiration to all who were present and Rev. Johnson preached another deep soul-stirring sermon from the text as found in II Cor. 10:5. At the B. Y. P. U. hour, Mr. Wright, one of our frequent visitors spoke very acceptably and encouragingly to that body. At the evening service the pastor again preached from the subject of "Visions" After which sermon there was one accession. The services are nowunning on summer schedule and the short, spiritual meetings are a source of enjoyment. The hot stuffy, stifling and noisome air of the down-town district is no horror for those who attend service in the cool, quiet surburb, for plenty of fresh air and fangs in abundance.

This last named institution is headed by Dr. C. R. Woods and has a student body numbering five hundred. Its graduating classes this year numbered sixty young men and women. It was recently characterized by Dr. Kelly Miller as the outstanding achievement among Negroes of what they have done educationally independent of assistance from the white race. It counts in its faculty some of the most prepared men and women sent out from the larger northern colleges. One of its professors in the theological faculty is the recognized authority in America on the religion of the native Haitian. Interacting Societies.

Bowling Asserts Bible's Fallibility Points-Out He Calls Inconsistencies With Accepted Scientific Truth, and Imperfect Ethics. After attempting to show that the Bible as we have it is not infallible, Rev. Richard H. Bowling, pastor of the First Baptist Church, pointed out that the Bible even as originally-written was not infallible. Delivering a special sermon last Sunday night he declared that there are serious discrepancies in the Bible as to dates, names, and accounts of the same events. "That these discrepancies are serious is evident from our inability to fully harmonize them," said the speaker. "Besides, there are obvious inadequacies and mistaken attempts to explain the physical universe which no mere changes in text of twisted interpretation could fully account for. For example, the Bible teaches a geocentric universe while the whole civilized world today whether fundamentalist or liberalist accepts the fact of a heliocentric universe. Since the days of John Jasper there have been but few serious contenders for that ancient though Biblical error. Also, the Bible teaches a flat instead of a spherical earth, and an earth history all too short in the light of the late discoveries in archeology, geology, anthropology, etc. And what shall we say of the imperfect ethics of great portions of the Bible which almost all of us are liberal enough to reject; namely, the condoning of polygamy, slavery, war, torture of mine, wine-drinking, etc.? What The Bible Claims "Contrary to the notions of some the Bible does not claim infallibility for itself. Take the verse of our text: II Tim. 3:16. As correctly translated or as given in the King James Version, it had reference to the Old Testament writings and can not be made to include scriptures which were then not even mands and needs of modern Sunday schools in the Front-line Sunday School Movement inaugurated by the National Baptist Publishing Board," declared the Secretary, Henry A. Bovd. He further states that they are making every possible innovation in new improvements in the preparation of the literature for the schools, whether they be in metropolitan centers or rural districts. The Rev. Mr. Boyd says they are drawing the two together, and that the Cycle Lessons that they are now pursuing is calculated to lift the whole Sunday School Program and at the same time so simplify the lessons that they meet the present-day needs. He states that the literature is out much earlier this quarter, as it has been ready since the second day of June. Journal and Guide Book Review. Close of Republican Convention Finds Race Voters Hesitant (Continued from Page One) Therefore, it will aid the Republican party none by advancing that cause through paid speaker-ministers who may be sent into this territory to work during the campaign. That is an issue best left alone, for he who openly advocates it here is lost politically. In Connecticut as well as in Massachusetts there has been a Democratic tendency on the part of race people just as there has been locally, throughout the East. Now, however, this tendency seems to be shifting back with the national campaign in view, to the party of Abraham Lincoln when the race recalls its treatment under the last Democratic National Administration. Whether it will come back heart and soul as well as in numbers is entirely up to the National Republican Committee according to the manner in which it will go about in reclaiming it. Race Men Were Prominent In Convention (Continued from Page One) named National committeeman, and Mrs. George Williams of Savannah, is the committeewoman of that State. "BRETHREN" PLAY PROMINENT Cleveland, Ohio, June 17—(A. N. P.)—Negrews played a prominent part in the convention and all were glad that the absence of a contest over the presidency prevented the usual cry of veniality on the part of our delegates. As the eye swept over Cleveland's magnificent city auditorium a dark face was to be noted here and there although we were hopelessly in the minority. On the national committees platform sat Henry Lincoln Johnson who devoted his time between his delegation on the floor and the limelight position on the platform. When Georgia's name was called in the roll a white delegate presented her votes. Aaron Malone of St. Louis was named a member of the committee to notify President Coolidge of his nomination. Mrs. George Williams, Mrs. Hallie Q. Brown and Lethia Fleming were among the women's names called as the reading clerk droned off the delegates. Charles Cottrell of Toledo was named an assistant reading clerk and accepted a place on the platform. The high light of interest for the colored contingent was the speech of Dr. Geo. W. Cannon of New Jersey who had been chosen as one of these en in existence. Similarly Rev. 22: 18 refers to that one book and not to the present Protestant cannon which was at the time of that composition not even in existence. A Striking Fact "But despite its failibility, there is this striking circumstance about the Bible: it holds its own. Reverent and morally upright ones behold its faults and yet cling to it. God's best written word to men. And what wonder when we consider that what is faulty in the Bible is non-essential to its main purpose. "In its main purpose the Bible is progressively infallible. The Bible leads us intentionally into a truer estimate of God, of man, and of man's high destiny in the plan of God. No one with honest heart can make a mistake following the larger than have been heard but he too succumbed to the lure of making a speech and the crowd booed him down. So that while Negroes won their contests easily and in general won their contention, no voice was raised effectively publicly in their behalf. Rev. Bowling To Discuss Tent Healing "Are the tent meetings successful?" This burning question will be death with at a special service this Sunday night at the First Baptist Church. Rev. Richard H.

A dumb-bell drill was given by the intermediate class, and the precision of the youngsters carrying out their exercises would have done credit to high school pupils. This was recognized by the audience, who requested an encore. The other numbers on the program consisted of 6 a chorus, "Merry June"—by the boys, a "Marching Song" by the Junior class, and "I'd a Letter From Papa Today" by the little ones. A juvenile cantata entitled "A Dream of Fairyland" was the chief attraction on the program. The story was that of two orphans who were lost and the struggles between the good and bad fairies for the care of them. After winning the orphans, the good fairies lost them. But the good finally won out and both evil fairies and orphans came over with the good fairies. The characters in this cantata were: May and Neva, (two orphans) Frances Lacey and Lillian Smith; fairy A, Lucille Foreman; fairy B, Ruth Roland; fairyC, Florence Lowe; fairy D, Janie McFarland; fairy E, Josephine Harrison; fairy F, Gertrude Bailey; fairy G, Minetta Reid; fairy H, Lucille Herring; fairy I, Sophia Stone, (Good Fairies.)

C.—What is conceded the most successful and satisfying commencement of Kittrell College since the days of the presidency Prof. Jae, R. Hawkins who has just passed into history. The Baccalaureate Sermon was delivered morning by Rev. G. D. Garnes, of Wilmington, N. C. It was full of thought and wholesome advice and was a strong appeal to SERVICE, which was the "Key Word". His text was St. Mark 10:43, 44. Sunday evening the address to Religious Societies was delivered by Mrs. Minnie S. Pearson, of Dunham, N. C. Mrs. Pearson is one of the race ablest and most useful women. She is safe anywhere, in any realm of life. Her address upon "The Need of The Hour—SERVICE." will bring forth fruit in the lives of those who heard it. Monday evening the Address to Literary Societies was delivered by Prof. Jas. L. Hill of Blanchfield, W. V. Class Day Exercises were thrilling because of the demonstration of teaching and through training they had received. Individuality, originality, and self-reliance stood out in such bold relief from each student that many old, experienced teachers and trainers of youth were heard to remark of the Church's good fortune in having such a president and faculty to train the youth. The annual musical Tuesday night brought to light some of the most promising professional talent.

It was by far the best heard there during many years. Prof. G. A. Edwards, the president, has inexpressibly surprised even his best friends by the masterful way he has handled the difficult problems there. He is an expert architect and builder. He quarried the stone, cut the timbers all from the ground of the college and supervised the erection of the dormitory. Thus he saved three thousand and seven hundred dollars to the school. For this he did not charge a single dollar. Eighty one thousand dollars were received and handled by the authorities during the year and every cent account for. There is not another school in the Connection that has back of it such a strong bunch of hymen (financially) as Kittrell College. Beginning with Prof. Jno. M. Avery (Vice President of The N. C. Matual Ins. Co.) who is secretary of the trustee board, and Prof. W. G. Pearson (President of the Bankers' Fire Ins. Co.) treasurer of the College, and followed by Berry O'Kelley, of Method, who saved the college this year twenty-eight hundred dollars in purchasing supplies) and F. A. Richardson, of Nashville, N. C.; Britton Pierre, of Raleigh; W. S. Seales, of Winston Salem, and others, Mr. N. B. Duke, (white), New York, telegramed a donation of 85,000 through Prof. Hawkins. There were four college graduates and twenty-four normal sch of graduates. The college has been "standardized" and is new in class AI. The addresses of Bishop J. Albert Johnson, Drs. C. D. Games, Chas. E. Stewart, and W. R. Gullins, were all inspiring. Dr. A. J. Wilson, is vice president of the trustee board and not only North Carolina's candidate for Episcopal honor, but is one of the Connection's favorite sons for that position. The trustee board unanimously reaffirmed their faith in him and endorsed him for promotion in 1928. The number limited to three in Louisville. Ky. last month is the only reason he was not elected then. Three Bishops will be elected in 1925, and A. J. Wilson, A. Grant, and S. L. Green will be the ones unless they join the "immensible caravan" before that time. North Carolina will never rest, no sleep till Dr. A. J. Wilson, is one on the bench. W.

United States and Virginia State Department of Agriculture Virginia Crop Report for June Richmond, Virginia, June 12—The outstanding feature of the June report of the Virginia Crop Reporting Service is the backward condition of plant 22 which owing to the frequent rains has been practically at a stand-dry. On June 1, less than half of the corn crop, and only a small percentage of the 60 or so maize had been planted. Where the land had been prepared, fabrics setting made rapid progress, but this work has not advanced as rapidly as usual. Farmers are becoming quite apprehensive concerning the outlook for corn, cotton, and poultry. Warm, dry weather is badly needed. However, the condition of oats, hay crops, pastures, and fruit is much better than the ten year average, and with favorable weather they crops will exceed the usual production. Wheat The condition of the wheat crop improved during May and then is now at much heavier growth of straw than had been expected. Weather conditions during the next two weeks will determine how the hands will fill. In some sections there were heavy rains while the wheat was blooming and this may result in poorly filled hands. The June 14 condition of 85 per cent indicates a production of 8,871,000 bushels, compared with 41,145,000 bushels last year and 10,824,000 bushels the averages for the five years 1918-22. Southwest Virginia has the lowest prospects of any part of the state, as the crop there was badly damaged by freezing during the winter. The average farm price on Voy 15 was 81.17 a bushel compared with 84.32 last year. The June 14 forecast of the total wheat crop for the United States is estimated to be against 75 million bushels lost last year and 67 million bushels the average production for the five years 1918-22. Oats The out increase in Virginia is estimated to be 714,999 acres which is an increase of 5 per cent over last year. There was a huge increase in acres to eat this spring in many farmers who failed to sow wheat her fall put their 1 and 2 in. Approximately 26 per cent of the total out crop was sowed last fall, and 74 per cent was sowed ELIZABETH CITY Elizabeth City, N. C.—Prof. and Mrs. L. S.

The cold, wet weather has been favorable for the growth of oats, so there has been considerable improvement in condition, which on June 1st was 87 per cent of normal compared with the ten year average of 84 per cent. Hay The land in hay crops, such as timothy, clover, and alfalfa is estimated to be 2 per cent greater than last year. The prospects for these crops are unusually good as excellent growth was made during the past month. The condition of all hay crops on June 1st was 91 per cent normal compared with the ten year average of 78 per cent. The harvesting of cotton clover, alfalfa, orchard grass, etc. has been retarded by the rains, and pruning forms have lost a part of these crops. Pastures have made rapid improvement and the dune condition of 14 per cent is considerably above the ten year average. On Junnetet the fruit conditions were quite promising, but owing to the late season, it is still too curly to make a definite forecast for the apple crop. The condition of patches in L21N.001 bushels compared with 55 per cent the ten year average. The forecast is L21N.001 bushels compared with 664,000 bushels last year. The condition of the apple crop was 80 per cent compared with 15 per cent last year and 55 per cent the ten year average. In the eastern southern and southwestern districts the outlook is very good, but reports from the commercial associations of the Valley and Piedmont districts are not as encouraging. The York impatient, which is the most important commercial variety, seems to be light and in some orchards Vinecrops have also been prooled. There has been an excellent blossom on black cinerias and mulberrys on the present outlook for three crops in very good form crops are underwarm with a condition of 75 per cent of norfolk. There has been no change in the farm labor situation during the past month. Generally labor is source and wages are high. On time, it reports of correspondents showed that the supply was 84 percent of the demand which is about the same relation in the past. Bessay M.

He or she must have the conviction that the work which he or she is doing has universal validity. The highest religion must be linked to the humblest task. Every Negro must be inspired with the conviction that the work he is doing is supremely useful. The one supreme religious and practical test is this: "How do we act in the presence of human need? The greatest life in this world is defined by the directness, the intensity, and the whole-heartedness with which a man addresses himself to the needs before him. Fellowship with God is found meeting the needs of men." Doctor Gregg, in his baccalaureate sermon on "Steadfastness," stated that the words pious, humble, docile, obedient, industrious have fallen into disfavor and disuse because they have been unjustly taken to signify subservience. "Yet the world," he said, "esteems devotion to alty, modesty, open-mindedness, disciplined loyalty, hard work, just as much as it ever did." He called upon the Hampton Institute graduates to keep the money that they might earn in its proper place that of a means, not an end; to stay by their work resolutely and unfalteringly; to be patient; to be steadfast, reliable, unvarying, unfaltering, absolutely regular in the performance of duties. Nurses Graduate At Dixie Hospital Hampton, Va., June 17.—Frank W. Darling, president of the board directors and board of incorporators of the Hampton Training School for Nurses and Dixie Hospital, recently presented diplomas to seven nurses, who had completed the three-year course: Bessie Walker, Norfolk; Izetta Shade, Wilson, N. C.; Bertha Long, Poolemoc City, Md.; Louise Dennis, Newport; News; Ruth Matherson, Lauringburg, N. C.; Inez Miller, Norfolk; and Emma Brooks, Surry Co., Va. He referred to the fine records which have been made by the Dixie Hospital nurses and urged the members of the Class of '24 to do their best all the time. The program was given in Clarke Hall, Hampton Institute. The Rev. Laurence Fenninger, emplain of the Institute, delivered the annual address to the graduating class of Dixie nurses. He spoke on "Reliability, Radiance, and Reverence," and emphasized the opportunity for service which is offered to those who enter the nursing ought to satisfy anyone that we are the leaders in our line—leaders because we keep ahead of the others in advanced styles and quality materials and because we have expert knowledge of cutting and fitting that can only be acquired through special training and years of concentration at the art.

JOB MARKET IN THE NORTH IS GLUTTED JOB MARKET IN THE NORTH IS GLUTTED (Continued from page 7) workman he deals with than the employee himself understands. Efficiency experts are constantly on the job making their tables; welfare agents in advanced plants are active in checking up the causes for absence from work. A good performer, irregular in his attendance on the job, is not always tolerated as long as a poorer worker who is conscientious and on the job all the time on the minute. Thus it happened that day after day men, white and black were given lay-off slips. To this day—nearly a year has passed now—this same condition exists. Unhappily many are without ever temporary jobs. JOES DIFFICULT TO GET The first objective to the ambitious newcomer is the job. Where it was easy to place three men at work a year ago it is now difficult to place one. At present at least two pairs of new shoes are worn out visiting plants where jobs might be available only to learn that there are no jobs. Hundreds of men, many of them experts in their special line now block the door of entrance to their last place of work with lay-off slips awaiting the hour of reassignment to duty. An employer cannot listen to an appeal for a newcomer in the face of such a condition. Many large plants work from three to five days a week with greatly reduced forces. During the last month one large steel plant laid off 1,500 men. No employee will predict when this situation may change. It is a happy idea to strike, however, that in large industries the ratio of Negro workers to all workers remains the same. In the restaurants and cafes there is a constant change from Negro to white help under the stress. On the other hand the operation of new insurance and cab concerns has opened larger fields of employment on trained Negro workers. S-3: is the situation as it exists to June, a time of the year when generally everything is moving full blast. July may find the whole condition of industry changed since the immigration law, the bonus, the surtax measure and the presidential nominees will all have be settled. Then again it may next March before the clouds of industrial depression will begin to clear. Because of this it is important to advise those who plan to move northward to get intelligent advice on opportunities for work and for reasonable shelter before breaking up homes in the South, it is certainly advisable to delay for at least a month as conditions are now.

C.—The National Training School for Women and Girls, Inc., located here, of which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is president, has recently closed the most successful year in its history. This school is one of the few institutions of its kind managed entirely by a woman. The commencement exercises crowned the banner year of the school history. The graduating class of '24 was the largest since the founding of the school. The amount of money raised and the number of students registered all surpassed the record of other years. Even more trustees met this year than at any previous meeting. All in all this was easily the banner year of this school which was founded over fourteen years ago by Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. The graduating class, including those receiving diplomas and certificates, consisted of twenty-four students representing seven states, the District of Columbia Africa and the West Indies. The Departments furnishing these graduates were: Normal, 2; Commercial, 1; Domestic Science, 1; Dressmaking and Plain Sewing, 8; Department of Religious Education, 8. The commencement address was delivered by Rev. Robert L. Brady of Detroit, Mich. Thursday, June 5th, and it was a masterpiece both for logic and oratory. So inspired were the trustees present, representing twenty-one states, with the work done, that they have organized for the immediate raising of $250,000 for a new building and a central heating plant. The trustees also voted to complete plans and put them into execution for the raising of a larger endowment fund.

Martin, pastor of the First Baptist Church preached an able ser- ing School For d A Wonderful Successful Year that is one of the most beautiful in the capital city, the Trustees voted to give Miss Burroughs, the one responsible for this remarkable growth, her first vacation in fourteen years and money to enjoy it. One of the most singular events of the present school year was the interest the students and alumni manifested in the school. During the year they gave over $1,000 in cash or legacies. Included in the legacies was a line radio set which proved a real source of enjoyment to the students during the winter. Miss Burroughs, in cooperation with the trustees is now working out plans for the enlargement and expansion of the school's property and activities. This year's faculty consisted of twelve teachers coming from the leading colleges in America. This being the only school north of the Potomac and Ohio rivers for the exclusive training of colored girls, it is rapidly extending its influence throughout the northern states. Many of the new expansions contemplated are for the purpose of taking care of the increased number of students yearly matriculating from these states. Being located in the nation's capital, the school has a natural attraction that makes it a favorable in both sections of the country. Many students come up from the South because of the unusual advantages offered here. The Training School was founded as a Baptist school and has remained under the care of this denomination since, although some of its trustees and supporters are of other denominations. The school is national both in the completion of its student body and its influence. Each year the student body is drawn more and more from the various states of the union and foreign countries. mon last Sunday.

P.)—Coolidge and Dawes, Republican headliners, seem to form a satisfactory combination in so far as the racial delegates and leaders here are concerned. The campaigning is already off with a flying start. Immediately following adjournment of the convention, all sides began to lay their ropes for developing political strategy. It is not yet determined who will make up the personnel of the group to push forward the interest of the party. The platform is one the spell-binders are agreeing which they can go to the people bravely on as anti-lynching law was urged. A Race Commission to study the economic and other phases of racial relations is included. Law and order is made a basis plank while railroad men will be interested in the suggestions governing retention of the Railway Labor board. Educators are interested in the proposition to federalize education and the protective tariff with so many Negroes working in industrial plants bids fair to be a live issue. "We would have preferred more specific advantages for the farmer," said one prominent colored farmer. have intimated they plan to move out of the section within a few days.

Turner, of The Nansemond Institute Closes A Banner Year Thirty-five Graded Students Receive Certificates and the First High School Class Suffolk, Va., June 17.—Never before in the memory of the Nassau-曼 institute, there have been closing exercises which register even within the shadow of the high-water mark which placed the closing of this school year far beyond the fond hopes of even it most sanguine admirers. The closing began Friday, May 28, when the junior high school, elaborately banqueted the members of both graduating classes with teachers and friends in the school auditorium. Artistic decoration transformed the auditorium into a thing of beauty. The menu was arranged by Mr. Langton of the delicatessen department of Brinkley Brothers Grocery Company. This was the last word in all that mean perfection. Mr. Lane, famous as a caterer, had charge of the serving and showed his skill along this particular line. Chase Day followed on May 21. On Sunday, June 1, the audition was taxed to its capacity, to listen to the lacraturee seismen, preached by Rev. R. L. Heck, a former graduate of the institution and now principal of the Albemarle Training School, Edenton, N. C. This was said to be one of the last sermons ever delivered to graduates in this city. June 2, 5, and 10, the execuses of the primary and intermediate grades were held under Mechanics Macklin, Vick, Eates and thorns, respectively. These execuses were graft, featuring playlets, operettas, folk dances, dialogues and songs. Thursday night, June 5, a spectacular Japanese operetta "Yanai San," was presented by the Tith and 10th grades, to a capacity house, Miss Renée White taking ch. 11 of "Wanki San." On Friday the climax was rescheduled and all records broken when sources were turned away for lest of room, who came to witness the graduation of thirty-five eighth grade students, and 3 high school of students. At 8:15 to the strains of a popular air, the thirty-five grade graduates marched in and took over the restroom. Then came the moment of breathless expectancy when three students in high school case and powers marched in. Mr. Hollery Diggs, president and valedictorian of the class led, followed by Miss Lola Arts, bearing eclipse containing corations, the class flowed, which she placed upon the stand. Miss Leodie Rumtree, the satutarian, followed, making the trio of the first high school graduates to go to the cap and gown and receive diplomas from a high school of color in an around Suffolk.

It was a big thing for the race, and the students will long remember it, to have President Coolidge deliver the commencement address at Howard University. It is not a small matter to be so favored by the Chief Executive of the Nation, and the graduates who heard him praise the race for the progress it has made and to point hopefully to what it can accomplish in the future will bequeath to their posterity the fact they were so honored upon their graduation. In the upheaval at the Cleveland Convention, when the Old Guard and the Congressional domination which came in with the nomination of Senator Harding at the Chicago Convention, and which has well nigh destroyed the Republican party, were squelched without mercy, the race emerged with two members of the National Committee. Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia and Perry W. Howard of Mississippi won out. That is much gain, as we have no representatives in the Congress and the National Committeeman is the whole thing in such a situation. It is a bit discouraging to have the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia decide as binding in law an agreement among property owners in a given area not to alienate their property to Negroes, Japanese or Chinese. We believe the principle is unsound in law, as far as the Negro, who is a citizen, is concerned, and could not be bound in the same way as aliens. The decision should be carried to the Supreme Court for final determination, because if the principle involved is held to be valid, as to Negroes in the District of Columbia, it would apply in California and other Pacific Coast States, where the legislation was primarily aimed at the Japanese and Chinese The Councilmen-elect Altho a minority of the qualified voters cast ballots in last week's councilmanic election, the outcome of the balloting will not cause any citizen apprehension as to the future welfare of the city. None of the candidates could have been correctly labeled as politicians seeking public office to serve special interests. Each of them must be credited with having been motivated by a desire to serve their community, and their records warranted the people's trust. Major S. Heth Tyler and Mr. E. Jeff Robertson, the victors, are men whose life-interests are interwoven in Norfolk. They have achieved personal success, and possess qualities which should enable them to take a businesslike grasp on the city's affairs. Norfolk is committed to two major programs for its future guidance. One a program of progressive growth; the other, a program of administrative economy. The test of successfully administering the city government in the next four years will lie in the harmonizing of these two programs so that neither will suffer at the expense of the other. Of course, no amount of ability in city officials can alone accomplish either of these ends. Cooperation of the citizens must be had and, no doubt, will be given. The two councilmen-elect have the confidence of their fellow-citizens, and that they will carry-on for the best interests of all the people there need be no doubt. The Regent of Abyssinia Dazzles France We are indebted to William Bolitho, the Paris correspondent of the New York World, for a pen picture of Ras Tafari, Prince Regent of Abyssinia, who is visiting Paris and dazzling France with the lavishment of his dress, the cultured courtesy of his manners and his common sense. When he had been shown all of the splendor and given a display in pantomine of the power of the French war machine, the accomplished descendent of King Solomon coldly remarked that "The glory of Europe is her science." The Black Man who said that, and disdained to flatter the military and other vanities of the French, who do not carry race prejudice into their business, represents a country, as Mr. Bolitho says. Europeans have utterly failed to conquer, and in the domestic affairs of Abyssinia Europeans have not been allowed to interfere, any more than they are allowed to interfere in the affairs of the United States. "The legend of a Black Empire is as untouched as in the days of the Crusaders," says Bolitho. The Ras only abolished slavery because it was a condition of Abyssinia's becoming a member of the League of Nations, and Ras had his own purpose in desiring such membership. "The astonishing evidence of the power of the League out of Europe that The Ras has given is not a greater portent than this emergence on the world scene of unconquered, powerful, Ethiopia," says Mr. Bolitho. Yes; the world does move, spiritually it not physically. Editorial Page of Our Million Dollar Finance Corporation The fact that we have ten corporations with resources of $20,000,000, representing withal only a fraction of the wealth of the race, and that they could organize a finance corporation with a capital of $1,000,000, is a significant and gratifying fact which none of us could have dreamed as possible at the organization of the National Negro Business League at Boston, in 1900. The home, farm and church values of the race, and its values on deposit in our banks and those of the white race group, will show we are certain, that fifty years after emancipation the race has seized of several billions, or sufficient values to lift it out of the class of pauper groups and to place it among the capitalist group, where it properly belongs, and in which, having got the foundation, it will in the coming fifty years develop a strength and influence which will command the confidence and respect of the rest of mankind. The situation uncovers the fact that the race is not only an industrious one, which the enemy used to insist that it is not, but that it is a thrifty race as well; and a people who are industrious but not thrifty, who do not save something of what they make and invest it in banks and homes and farms and business enterprises, are easily classed as a pauper group, and command only the confidence and respect the world shows very generally to paupers. We are no longer such a group, and when it could be alleged of us we were not responsible for it; we got it in the slave education and tradition. In every department of human thought and effort the race is making good. It has every encouragement to take heart of hope and to keep on a-coming. Postal Employees' Raise Vetoed There was general regret among the people of the country that President Coolidge considered it necessary to veto the Postal, Pay Raise bill, because Congress failed to make provision for the necessary money to meet the great expense. There is a very general conviction that the postal employees are entitled to increased pay because of the exacting nature of their employment, which is more strenuous than that of any other body of civil service employees, and because of the increased cost of living, especially in the larger cities of the country, where the one item of rentals has doubled since the beginning of the World War and shows very little disposition to come down a penny. Indeed, increased rentals, once effected, it has been shown, are seldom decreased. But the cost of living has depreciated the purchasing power of the dollar in all directions by some thirty per cent, and has been met in all other employments than the civil service by radical increases in wages as in the building trades. The Post Office Department is not conducted as a paying business by the Government, but the people of the country would rather that it be so conducted, and pay the small increase in postal charges, than that so large, efficient and necessary a body of workers as the postal employees should be overworked and underpaid. The Congress was negligent in this as in other legislation, in not providing the necessary revenue to meet the increased cost of service, and leaving the President no other alternative than to veto the legislation. The Congress at its next session should correct the error and give the postal employees the increased compensation they deserve and need. Negro Farmers Move in as Japanese Farmers Move Out The land laws of California, which were being enforced before the restriction in the new immigration law became a fact, and which prevented the Japanese from owning or leasing land in California, had the effect of so crippling the fruit and vegetable industries of the State as to threaten to affect the demand for fruit and vegetable products in the whole country. Indeed, a very long and loud wall over the possible shortage went up and it was not unreasonable. The Japanese farmers and farmworkers in California carried the fruit and vegetable industries to the very highest point of productivity and values, as the Japanese, just like the Chinese, are among the most efficient and industrious workers in the world. Indeed, it is because they are such, with the added virtue of temperance in eating and drinking and the ability to save and advantageously invest their earnings, which makes them undesirable competitors of white labor not only in California but everywhere. As business men the Japanese are very shrewd; as workers they are steady and efficient, and they will not stand to be robbed and mistreated, as the Chinese and Negroes are disposed to be. And the Japanese stand together as business men and wage-drivers. We have got to learn to do so more and more. Word comes through our newspapers in California that as the Japanese land owners and workers are compelled to move out Negro labor is being drawn upon largely to supply their places. One man's loss is usually another man's gain. The rule works that way. Let us hope that our laborers will be found equal to the work the Japanese have been compelled to abandon. They should be. The climate is just such as they thrive in best, or are said to, but we have found that they appear to thrive in one climate as well as in another, and it should be easy for them to adapt themselves to the requirements of fruit and vegetable farming. We believe that it will be. If they make good in California, and why should they not? there will be other openings of like advantage and profit to them, in the Pacific Coast-States. The Negro must be original Children of the Sun, of Is-Ra-El, as the Lord appears to make an opening for them where none appeared to exist. Norfolk Journal and Guide Richmond Sees the Need The Richmond News Leader's appeal for funds to equip playgrounds for the 40,000 disadvantaged colored children of that city will not only strike straight to the pocketbooks of all Richmonders, white and colored, but touch the sympathies of thousands of people elsewhere. Forty thousand children without opportunity for legitimate play in any city is a serious reflection on both public opinion and the government of that city. But serious as it is, in Richmond, the News Leader has had the courage to point a finger at it. This action forms another of those bright spots that suddenly and not infrequently blaze out of a horizon beclouded with discouragement and despair and hang menacingly over the race's tenure in the South. Richmond, however, is saved from isolation in her plight of failing to provide playgrounds for 40,000 of her future citizens. Norfolk, her sister city, in this respect, is her boon companion. Not quite as many disadvantaged children here as in the capital city, due only to the disparity in population. The number makes no difference; the situation is the same. Recreational facilities at the expense of private donations reflect admirable credit upon the donors, but primarily the equipping of public playgrounds and parks is the function of the municipality. In Norfolk, this fact is recognized by Director of Public Welfare Schenck, who has done much to increase the opportunities for recreation and play for Norfolk people. But it yet remains for these opportunities to amply embrace 25,000 disadvantaged colored children of the city, who must, as the News Leader puts it, "run wild thru the city and find what amusement mischievous minds may devise." But the responsibility is not all on the city authorities. The public cannot escape its share. A concerted citizens' movement equipped with feasible plans would, no doubt, get an ear at City Hall and start things moving in the right direction. Spirit of the Press The Pittsburgh Courier The Method. Most of us are familiar with the ignominious伯恩-温尔斯 case at Columbia University. The young man, Rucker, a Southerner tried to have Wells, a Negro student, dismiss him from Columbia because the Southerner objected to the presence of a Negro in the dormitory. The young Southerner failed to have his desires gratified. Wells remained in Furndal Hall. Mr. Hawkes, the dean of the university, took the view that Wells was a student, and his color had nothing to do with his rights, as such. The news of an attempt of a young Southerner to have a Negro put out of a university is nothing unusual in America. Anything hellish can and does happen in this country. There is a great deal said about democracy, but it is for outside consumption. Japan has just new refused to consume any more of it. Few persons can understand why a young white man, who never held a slave, should hate a young Negro who never was a slave. The young Negro knows nothing of slavery. The young white man knows nothing of slavery, except what he reads and hears from old slave drivers, who have not answered the final call. Just why a young white man should hate a young colored man when each is equally ignorant of the former status of the other, is beyond us, and can be explained in no other way except that it must be a part of the American idea to hate all persons whose skin does not happen to be white. And it so happens—we say it happens,—that the white man who wanted Wells excluded from Furnall Hall had more prejudice than brains, because the reports from the final examinations show that he failed to pass. This ought to indicate to him that color fades out in every branch of the arts and sciences and that truth knows no race or color, nor does prejudice have the slightest control over knowledge. When all men are put to the same common test, color, race and religion all fade out completely. Progress of the Negro Race One who looks about today and observes the visible signs of the progress made in the last half century by the American Negroes will, if unbiased and just in his estimates of that progress, agree that they have made a prognostic beginning in the age-long task of emancipating themselves from the slavery of ignorance and superstition, a heritage from their long years of physical servitude to their white masters, and of a longer period of moral and intellectual darkness in the wilds of Africa. This progress has not been made by chance. It has not been made solely because those of the white race have sought to place opportunity in the way of the Negroes. It has been made, as will sometime be agreed, because of the unquenchable desire of the Negroes to assimilate, in some degree, the civilization, the learning, and perhaps the ways, of those about them. Their problem has not yet been solved. Some day it will be solved, and it is this bright promise that encourages those who learn and those who teach. So Say We All Charles Satchell Morris admits himself that he is no longer a boy and only now and then do we see him referred to as the "boy orator"; but he still either has the mind of a boy or is suffering with "sensitive dementia," sometimes called second childhood. His speeches show that he has done little or no thinking, but he blurs out parrot-like something in the same fashion as Roscee "Cacklin" Simmons, the oratorical buffoon. While addressing a well-known Chicago Literary Society on last Sunday evening, Mr. Morris, the "brilliant and polished" boy crator, stated the he felt as welcome in Chicago as a piece of butter placed in a good hot roll. That was all that anyone remembers that the orator said and those who heard him state that it is a pity that our young men think with their mouths. An old adage would no doubt inspire men of the Morris and Simmons ilk: "A good workman is like a pair of shears—when he goes to work he shuts up." Morris has been talking all of his life and this newspaper feels that it is time he got down to work. Don't go to pieces over the accomplishment of small things. Wait until you do something really worth while before you "shout all over God's kingdom." Then have a care lest you break the sea of glass.—Star of Zion. A LIFE INSURANCE POLICY IS A "SHOCK ABSORBER" at Death "The backbone of every estate, large or small, is Life Insurance, because it, alone, is SURE....Has your estate a backbone?" Negro Progress For The Year Indianapolis Stur. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with headquarters in New York, is an organization whose purpose is in a legal and orderly way to secure members of the colored race the protection of law when discrimination is threatened or accomplished and by the promotion of good citizenship to secure interracial harmony. Its Annual Report, a summary of which was recently published, shows activity along various lines and that considerable progress has been made in securing peaceful adjustment of wrong. Though the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill has pot yet been made a law, the fight made in Congress and the publicity given to the Lynching evil have had their influence through the realization by the public that it is not the lives of Negroes alone that are concerned, and the honor of Amrica and the brutalizing effect of the crime on the white race. Known Lynchings decreased in 1923 to twenty-eight from sixty-yea in 1922. Among the forward steps noted is the action of the unanimous vote of the Harvard board of overseers that in the administration of rules for admission Harvard college maintains its traditional policy of freedom from discrimination on grounds of race or religion. This was in opposition to President Lowell's policy of exclusion. One curious episode was that of the establishment of a government hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., for the care of Negro veterans. It was not at first proposed to place it at Tuskegee, and the authorities there did not want it, but opposition to it was so great in white communities that on government request 300 acres were set apart for its use on land of the institution, Dr. Moton, head of Tuskegee, first stipulating that at least a part of the staff of physicians and nurses should be Negroes. It is by systematic, orderly methods of securing justice to the race that reforms will be brought about in the surest way, and the Association, which is large and evidently wisely managed is proceeding on a proper course. TWENTY-NINE WIVES __HOME FOR EACH New York, N. Y., June 19—(A. N. P.)—Ilo Kom Tong, wealthy Chinese who sailed for home this week, is said to have sent word to each of his 29 wives in China reminding them of his home-coming. Mr. Tong has a separate home for each of his wives. BODIES FOUND IN DEBRIS Mansfield, Ohio, June 19—(P. N.

NORFOLK DISTRICT REVIEW And COMMENT REVIEW And COMMENT BY WILLIAM BRITTON Race Commission The race commission bill, which grew out of recommendations made by President Coolidge in his first message to the Congress, died in the jam of bills that failed to come to a vote during the final days of Congress. We need not bewail the fate of this bill. There never was any public clamor for it, not even among the very group which it was specifically designed to benefit. Few Negroes knew that such a measure was before Congress, and fewer even caired. The race question does not deserve a study similar to that given agriculture, turf, mining and forestry by specially created burenus. Certainly there is previous little good such a commission with headquarters in Washington could do towards promoting racial amity. Local commissions that come into existence voluntarily such as the Commission on Interracial Relations now operating in numerous Southern states hold the possibilities of great good. They are local and are prepared to deal with local issues as they arise, but what could a body of six or seven persons with offices far from the particular, scene of friction do, other than issue long and intricate bulletins and make empty recommendations? Moreover, the Negro must guard against being considered separate from the whole body of American citizenship. Every race has its natural traits and traditions that it takes pleasure in preserving, but this clanishness in citizenship must be tabooed. Amalgamation of citizenship and interest must be the constant aim of the race. Special laws, special commissions, special bureaus for us tend to create a disastrous separatedness for the Negro. There is enough legislation to protect the people of this country. An impartial enforcement shall ever be our demand. No special study is needed. McAdoo-Smith Slate On the eve of the convening of the National Democratic Convention there are those whose hands will hold a con- trolling cord on the presidential nomination of the party, who believe that in case of a deadlock between former Secretary McAdoo and Governor Al Smith of New York a coalition might be formed between the supporters of each by placing both the Governor and Mr. McAdoo on the same ticket, the former as vice-president and the latter as the chief standard bearer. This seems possible, and it may actually happen. But what about the conduct of their campaign in case it does happen? Governor Smith is an avowed enemy of the Ku Klux Klan and he has wet-leanings. Mr. McAdoo is so persistent silent on the Klan issue that a good many voters credit him with being favored by the knights. He is also an out and out Dry. Now, in the event they are placed on the same ticket and both take the stump, how are they to harpize such opposite views? If the party writes a plank into its platform denouncing the klan, it will be an easy matter for Governor Smith provided he is nominated on the second place on the ticket, to emphasize this denunciation in his campaign speeches because the plank will be in conformity with his already expressed views. But with MeAdo the case is different. He has avoided the klan question. Would such a plank in the party platform bring him in the open on this absorbing tonic? More: If the Democrats reassert their position on the prohibition issue by adopting a plank favorable to the Drys, how will Governor Smith frame his campaign speeches so as to conform with his oft repeated requests for a liberalization of the Volstead law? Then, there are the voters. If neither of these questions is touched in the party platform, there is no question that McAdoo will carry the solid South. But what about Governor Smith? Will the Klan stand for him? topic? Indeed, a Smith-McAdoo combination presents some interesting questions. High Cost Of Marriages WILEY A. JOHNSON, JR. Seemingly the Virginia General Assembly is raising havoc, in fact it has done so. It was bad enough when it passed the Layman Prohibition act, which is as tight as an "E" string on a banjo. But the Assembly went the p one better, when it advanced the price of marriage licenses from one to three backs. No one has the slightest conception of what it was done for. Of course 'tis said that the Fife has a six million dollar treasury deficit and it got to be made through the process of adding taxation. Far be it from the wife's know whether or not this is true. But one thing they know as that is, it is placing the burden of responsibility on those who are seeking matrimonial parring partners. It is a consequence of married relations that those who are seeking to commit such a difficulty should be given a price of the dollars instead of being given three bucks to get married. By advancing the price of marriage certificates, it brings a higher cost of marriage and is also making a sacrifice. The recent war brought an era of all kind of suffering but now the marriage is even easier takes the lead. Statistics showed that there are a grand rush for the marriage tificates during the first two weeks in June. Folks were buying them at the bargain price of one dollar a three. Some were buying them at an ing them put on until a late date. They only wanted to ensure that they got their in time a save on the price. It wouldn't be a bad thing if one would go into the need of business. There isn't the best thing this would be a lucrative field. There're going to be some simps who will not be able to pay the papers at the price of the dollars. It would be best if they would never be able to pay. I bet you can go on the market new and find online a number of license that have been used by owners want to get rid of them. There are some slightly used some which have been used quite a while, but are not worse for the wear and tear. You will be able to strike ha gains in these used licences. You are some who will be glad to go them away for a more tribute some who will be pleased to go rid of them the earliest and quick est way.
