B. Y., Jr.—Sports Editor. By P. BERNARD YOUNG, JR. Last week the question that was on the majority of fight fan's lips was this: "Can Panama Joe Gans stop Larry Estridge?" This week the question has been answered—and the answer is no. At least he did not. Gross Injustice The most widely known case of race prejudice keeping a real and logical contender from his rightful chance at the championship is that of Harry Wills and his attempt to secure a match with "Dodging" Jack Dempsy. Wills is made to meet two or three concrete head clinch-loving, science-lacking lubber heads before he meets Dempsy. At the same time Gibbons Brennan, Carpentier, and Firpe get their chances at the glory and money without a real test of any kind. The gross injustice of such a state of affairs is discouraging to say the least. We Say Ditto We say ditto to the following article by Romeo L. Dougherty of the Amsterdam News. When Panama Joe Gans and Larry Estridge crawl through the ropes on Thursday night at the Milk Fund Benefit, all Europe will enjoy another opportunity of questioning the claims to true sportsmanship on the part of white Americans. Here we have two of the best colored boys at their weight in the world, but by reason of their being colored they are denied the opportunity of engaging in bouts with the best white boys at the big open air clubs and in Madison Square Garden, the latter presided over by the Texan known as Tex Rick ard. Panama Joe Gans long ago proved by his ability that he is worthy of consideration at the hands of any promoter in the world and Larry Estridge by a sensational spurt during the past two years has joined Gans as a drawing card and in helping to drive such touted fighters as Bellenbach, Greb and the rest of them behind the color line. While it is true Greb entered the ring with Norfolk not very long ago, this did not happen in New York, where the white man would have been forced to fight fair and let the fans who really spend the most money for prize fights see whether he is a false alarm or not. Boys Keep in Trim The latest reports from Paris are to the effect that Johnson, Hubbard, Gourdin, West, Brookins, and the rest of the boys are coming up to the expectations of the coaches. Darl Johnson continues to lead the distance men, while Hubbard is priming himself for a record breaking attempt in the running brook jump, as is Gourdin and the remaining members of the squad. We are behind them too per cent. The New Jersey Boxing commission showed its real colors when it did not attempt to bar Wills on the account of mixed bouts. If only all of our white friends would do that in sports as well as in other things there would soon be no "problem." George Godfrey made a punching bag out of Jack Thompson in his last bout and is now clamoring for a bout with Wills. Godfrey has proved himself a boxer of the first order and his chance should be given. Perhaps a bout with such a man would be of benefit to Wills after his two year layoff. There would be no hugging in this fight. We are going to be on the Wills side of the house, however when they mix up. Junior Team Wants To Schedule Games Franklin, Va., July 4—Manager L. A. Pope of the Franklin Junior team has issued a notice to all minor teams wanting games. All teams that desire to play this well known team should communicate with the manager. No teams ac- cepted ranging over the age of 17 years. Communicate with L. A. Pope, Mgr., Franklin, Va. Godfrey Whips Jack Thompson Bhiladelphia, Pa., July 3—(A. N. P.)—George Godfrey, the colored heavyweight, clinched his claims for a bout with Luis Angel Firpo when he knocked out Jack Thompson in the semi-final contest at Shibe Park last night. It was a terrific fight, and the fastest that has ever been seen here between heavyweights. Godfrey scaled 212 pounds and Thompson 206. From the time they shook hands till Thompson lay flattened in the third round Godfrey was after him with the viciousness of an enraged bulldog. Godfrey fairly rained punches on Jack's head and face. Thompson proved a wonder at taking punishment. It was not till near the end of the second round that Godfrey finally landed the punch that sent Thompson down for the first time. Godfrey made a punching bag of Thompson in the third round. During that period Jack was on the mat five times. Four times he was knocked down by Godfrey's punches and once he went down without being hit. The fifth time it looked as if he could not possibly get to his feet again, and he lay stretched at full length on the mat, his seconds threw a towel in the ring in token of defeat. The bout was a most sensational affair while it lasted and the 11,000 or more spectators were worked up to the highest pitch of excitement during every second of the encounter. In the opening bout of six rounds Johnny Griffith, of Chester, was given a short end of the fight between him and Whitney Fitzgerald, white, with the disapproval of the crowd whose hisses and bores were heard for many blocks away. Jersey Puts Bar On Color Line (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) Trenton, N. J. July 3—The question long in doubt as to whether the New Jersey Boxing Commission would sanction mixed bouts was settled by the recent announcement made by Commissioner Newton A. K. Bugbit, of the State Athletic Commission. He signed articles of agreement entered into between Wills and Firpo, the "Brown Panther" and the "Wild Bull of the Pampas" respectively, for their bout scheduled to be conducted at Boyles Thirty Acres on August 30th. It was announced that since the forthcoming match will lead to a championship bout the promoters would be permitted to charge the maximum fee of $25 for admission, plus tax. FIBRO HAS SIGNED According to dispatches from Buenos Aires, Luis Firpo, the Argentine heavyweight has finally been overcome by the sweet music of the silver clinkers, and has signed preliminary papers for a fight with Wills. Under the contract Firpo is guaranteed $100,000 with an option of 37 1-2 per cent of the gate receipts. Almost Paralyzes White Box New York, N. Y., July 3—(A. N. P.)—A right hook behind the left ear so paralized Charley Murray in the first round of a scheduled twelve round feature bout Saturday night at the Commonwealth Sport Club that he never recovered. In the next round, the white boy lost control of his hands and unable to lift them in defense, was caught by the referee and taken to his corner, out for the count. Joe Hicks, otherwise known as Allentown Joe Gans, was the chap who did all the damage. In the second feature bout of the evening, Ansell Bell was given the judges decision over Mike Castle of Brooklyn. In being awarded the decision, Bell may consider himself lucky that the judges did not call the bout a draw. The bout was 'one of the fastest and cleverest that fight fans have seen in this city in many days. Ansell and Castle both weighed 121 1-2 pounds.

P.)—George Godfrey, who is determined to fight his way into the leard of the heavyweight division this year hopes to do it over the prostrate form of Harry Wills, the man accepted as the best bet for heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey to fight next fall. But Godfrey first wants to prove that he is the master of the New Orleans Panther before the latter gets the shot at the champion. The big fellow from Alabama watched Wills' failure to knock off Bartley Madden and repeated his desire for a struggle with Harry. "Wills is a mighty tough fellow, but he's not the puncher he used to be. His speed is gone, but he still has his ring craft to overcome the strong aggressive campaigns of some of the younger heavyweights," said Godfrey in expressing why he believes he can whip Harry. "While lots of people thought Wills had gone back when he fought Madden, yet Harry fought a good fight in spots. It's tough to knock out a man like Bartley Madden. He's what Jimmy Doughtery calls a close-coupled boxer. His powerful arms guard his face and body and his legs carry him a way from danger. Then, again, he had the strength to resist powerful blows. "Madden fought just about the same kind of a fight against Wills that Tommy Gibbons fought against Dempsey in Shelby. I saw that title scrap, for I worked with Dempsey in training, and I want to say the conditions in both fights were almost the same. Madden took more of a licking, but he took it behind defense. I would like to try my hitting and boxing against Madden, but, of course, want to meet Wills most of all. All kinds of offers have been made to get him to buy me, but he doesn't seem to want to take any chances with little George." HEARD 'ROUND TOWN By A.

P.)—Results of ball games played around here Sunday were as follows: At West New York, the local team defeated the Philadelphia Giants 4 to 2. Bradford pitched a good game for the Giants but the New Jersey boys were the more effective hitters in the pinches. At Dexter Park in Brooklyn, the Cuban Stars added two more wins to their credit when they took the Rushwicks into camp twice. The score for the first game was 8-4. In the second, the Cubans toyed with the Brooklyn team, winning by 14 to 6. Playing the Ridgewoods on their home diamond in Brooklyn, the Penn Red Caps went down to defeat at the hands of the fast going Ridgewood Base Ball Club, who have won their last eleven starts, by the score of 440. H. Johnson, pitching for the Red Caps twirled a good game but his teammates were unable to find the swift balls which Barry, for the home team was hurling over. The Lincoln Giants managed to keep their lead at the head of the Eastern Colored League by winning two games over the Washington Potomacs Sunday at the home grounds of the Lincolns, the Catholic Protectory Oval. They play the famous Royal Giants next Sunday. N. A. A. C. P. In 15th Annual Session (Continued from Page One) carried victoriously onward by N. A. A. C. P.

I DIDN'T DO NOTHIN' ELSE BUT! TRUXTUN OBSERVES 5TH ANNIVERSARY TRUXTUN OBSERVES 5TH ANNIVERSARY The community of Truxtun celebrated its fifth anniversary Thursday under the most favorable conditions. When the sailors arrived from the navy yard at 8:30 to unfurl Old Glory to the breeze almost every home in the town was bedecked with flags and bunting and from that time until the speech making at night there was a continuous round of activity. The night session was packed to the door and an important feature of this meeting was the return of the sailors who brought with them this time Admiral Zeigenier and his Aide, Lieut. Commander Le Bourgeois. Rev. A. S. Lomax introduced to the audience the master of ceremonies, Rev. M. B. Birchett. Rev. Lomax spoke feelingly of the early trials and struggles of the town and its final passing into the hands of a corporation capable of advancing its growth. Rev. Birchett called on the audience to sing America and at its conclusion Dr. A. C. Johnson rendered a vocal solo which was followed by a recitation on "The Spirit of Truxton," by Annie May Briggs. T. C. Williams was introduced to give the welcome address on behalf of the citizens of Truxton. A War Project Truxtun was born during this war emergency when the United States had to assemble thousands of workers at various shipyards, navy yards and munition plants and houses had to be erected to shelter them. At first only temporary cottages were planned for the workers, but latter it occurred to the government that these workers were just as loyal soldiers as the men on Flanders field, because they too were obeying orders and presecting the war, and as a result Truxtun was organized with well laid out lots, electric lights, a good school and affording a privacy to each home which allowed every man to dwell in safety with his wife and children under his own vine and fig tree. Williams argued real estate men in building houses for colored people in the future to use Truxtun houses as a minimum standard of modern sanitation and convenience. He said, "The married man with a family should be willing to sacrifice and save a small amount of his earnings in order that his wife and children may enjoy a higher standard of living. We of Truxtun are to co-operate with Portsmouth in every undertaking having for its aim the growth of the city and we know that the city authorities are going to do all in their power to advance the happiness and welfare of all the people." A response to the address was made by Rev. Everett Eugene Smith, assistant pastor of Zion Church, who commended the people of Truxtun for living under such favorable surroundings and who urged a hearty patriotism on Negro people, not a patriotism of war however, but a patriotism devoted to the arts of peace. He was followed by Admiral Zeugnier, who in a happy vein spoke of the interest he had in Truxtun, its elevated location and the fine place Truxtun was in which to rear children Individual Must Help Individual Must Help Admiral Zeigmier stressed the fact that the community cannot advance by government doing everything but the individual citizen must do his part in order to bring about the continuation of good conditions. Both Admiral Zeigmier and the Rev. Smith praised T. C. Williams for his endeavor to interpret the Truxtum spirit. Lieut. Commander Le Bourgeois, side to Admiral Zeigmier made a few faecious remarks in which he told of a legend which was related to him while he was stationed in Turkey, the burden of which was a man dissatisfied with his surroundings and through a series of exchanges became dissatisfied with every new situation. He finally returned to his original station in life. He urged the residents to be contented with their home and make Truxtum a city of beauty and contentment. Daniel Dohane, president of the Truxtun Council made a few remarks welcoming visitors and recited the fine spirit shown by the residents through the hard days through which the town had struggled. Other numbers on the program included solo by Mrs. Johnsio Churchill; instrumental solos, Misses Ada Gardner, M. Johns and Mingo Savage. Selections by the Eagle quartet, and the Metropolitan band. The invocation was made by the Rev. R. L. Harris and the benediction by Rev. A. S. Lomax. City Manager Jersey was absent to the regret of all.

The idea of this tournament, which will be held the last week of July, is to allow the members to find their weakness, pick their double partners, and prepare themselves for the Tidewater Tennis Tournament which will be held under the auspices of the Journal and Guide in September on the Tidewater Tennis Club's courts. In this tournament, all clubs or persons around Tidewater, Va., will be given a chance to make entries for participation in the tournament. The committee which has charge of this tournament is composed of Dr. McGriff, Mr. P. Bernard Young, Jr., and Mr. Landis Taylor. The club also wishes to have the public familiar with a few of their important rules. Among them are: (1) Any visiting person, whether male or female, visiting our city is extended by the club an invitation to play on the said courts at any time, whether you are a guest of a member of the club or not. (2) Any ladies of our city are extended the same privilege as mentioned above.

These rules are being mentioned so there seems to have been some incorrect information given.

Church in Atlanta, Ga. preached a souli stirring sermon from Peter 14: "To whom coming as unto a living stone disallowed of men but chosen of God and precious." BANK STREET BAPTIST Rev. C. M. Long, preached a practical sermon on the subject, "Marriage," at the eleven o'clock service, Sunday morning. The text cited was from Mark 10:7-9, "For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife, etc." The pastor defined true marriage as the union for life of the spiritual affections of man and woman, plus a legal ceremony and the Divine approval. The ceremony of marriage is both ancient and modern. Marriage form, monogamous and not polygamous, although this latter form has always been practiced, both openly among the Mormons and secretly among us. God created only one wife for Adam. The Divine attitude on this point is perfectly clear and intelligible to mankind, absolutely, nothing being left for guess work, or inference. The object of marriage is not legalized lust, but for the perpetuation of the human race and the glory of God. I. We should consider marriage in the light of a Divine Institution. II. When so considered, it is an act of Supreme Sacrifice and Devotion. There must be ideals on the part of both members of the contract; there must be compatibility of age education—wealth—disposition—religion. There should be moral, mental and physical fitness, and prayerful consideration. Careful attention to these prevents careless entrance into the marriage state and tends to reduce the otherwise increasing number of divorces. The effect of marriage is to bind them together in the most tender sacred, and intimate relationship possible. Finally, let us note that marriage is a perpetual partnership. "What god has joined together, let no man but assunder." HE MINISTERIAL ALLIANCE CLOSES SEASON'S MEETINGS The Ministerial Alliance of Norfolk, Portsmouth and vicinity, held its monthly and closing meeting at the Garrett's Temple, of which the Rev. Garrett, D. D., is pastor, on the 19th of June, 1924. The president, Rev. M. E. Davis, D. D., called the meeting to order. Devotional exercises were conducted by the Rev. Richard C. Pople. The minutes of the previous meeting were read, corrected and approved. After which, the orders of the day were enunciated by the president, viz., "What can be done to diminish the death-rate among our people." The same diligence was again shown as it was in the previous meeting, because the appointees made not their appearance. The president called on the committee for the "Clean-up Week." No report was rendered. The Rev. H. C. Miller, A. B., was appointed to preach the opening sermon at the next session; Rev. J. A. Young, D. D., will sing a solo, the president, Rev. M. E. Davis, D. D., will also read a paper. All of these were done by the general consent of the body. The subject of healing was taken up: After some pointed and terse remarks, the question was laid on the table for further consideration. At this point, the president called attention to the sermon, which was to be delivered by the Rev. M. D. Smith, D. D., and whom he also introduced to the body. He was accompanied by the Rev. J. A. Young. He chose for a text, Isa. 28:5-6. Subject: "The Advancement of God's People." In the scope of his argument he showed how marvellously God dealt with his people in the ages past, in the manifestation of His infinite forbearance and goodness toward them. The sermon was well delivered in a scholarly manner. This showed careful researches and untiring preparation—accompanied with earnest zeal—to meet the responsibility of an accredited and exalted ministry. The body was heartily elated by the delivery of such lofty and profound discourse. After the sermon, the Rev. Nottingham offered a very pathetic prayer. After which came remarks on the sermon, it was maced that a vote of thanks be tendered to Dr. Smith for his timely sermon. It was unanimously assented to. A collection was raised for the benefit of the Alliance, and a portion of which was given to Rev. Thomas, a retired minister, as an aid. Rev. Thomas made some very touching remarks on the ministry of by-gone days to what it is of today. The president announced that the Alliance will have its opening at the Bethlehem Baptist Church, of which Rev. N. B. Brown, B. Th., is pastor, October, 1924. The president called for an adjournment. This was followed by a wholesale repast given by the Rev. Dr. Garrett, the pastor and the church, superintended by the leaders. In the midst of the feast, the Rev. Dr. Nottingham was called upon to express the sentiment of the Alliance to the Rev. Dr. Garrett and these amiable sisters of the church for their kind devotion. This he did in a most commending and gratified manner. 3000 MARCH IN S. S. PARADE Despite the oppressive heat the annual parade of the Sunday schools of Norfolk held Sunday was one of the largest and most impressive ever held under the auspices of the Tidewater Interdenominational Sunday School Council. With three of the best bands in Virginia, one or two drum corps, appropriately decorated motor trucks, and a long line of tired but willing marchers, ranging from baby tots to aged, gray-haired men and women, the parade passed by with the banners of the various Sunday schools and their classes held high by the ones designated as the standard bearers of the representatives of the Christ. OBJECT OF THE PARADE This annual parade of the Sunday school workers and pupils, which has proved the most impressive outdoor religious event conducted in the city during the year, has for its purpose the softening of denominational lines and the heightening of the unity of purpose for which, all Christian workers strive. It also serves to impress those unaffiliated with Sunday schools of the great work this body of young church folks has set out to accomplish, and makes an appeal to them to forsake the temptations of frivolities and unessentials on the Sabbath day and register under the banner of the Church school. As one group swung along singing softly the strains of "Onward Christian Soldiers" one felt when they came to the part that "We are not divided" that this joint parade had something to do with the closer relationship between the various churches that is now becoming an actuality. BANDS FEATURED Three bands, the Excelsior, the Premier Military, and St. Joseph's Catholic were in the line of march, which was headed by two motorcycle patrolmen. The pastors headed their respective school contingents. The order and line of march was as follows: Chief Marshall, P. McNiel Thompson, asst. Chief of Staff, Walter Smith; staff aides, M. E. Diggs, C. A. Palmer, E. Hall, Chas. S. Carter. FIRST DIVISION Formed on Smith street, rested on Bute; J. M. Collins, Chief Marshall: Excelsior Band. Sunday schools: St. John A. M.

"The doings of the present are usually the pilot of the future transaction." "Nineteen years ago when the Sunday School Congress was launched upon the placid sea of denominational anticipation, by that Apostle and Father of Negro production and circulation of religious literature, Dr. R. H. Boyd, I had the honor to serve as secretary of the committee on homes, and since that time I have labored and watched with increasing interest its growth from seventy-one messengers to more than two thousand, and the increase of its power of attraction from an audience of two hundred and fifty, who registered their approval at the first meeting, until the meeting just closed at Cincinnati, Ohio, where thousands assembled day and night for five days, to be treated with intellectual thrills and drink from the fourteen departmental springs of religious information," said Rev J. L. Harding, President of the Tennessee Baptist State Convention this week. Religious Offering He also said: "The Congress being a religious offspring of the National Baptist Convention, its healthy condition and magnificent activities indicate the spiritual mode of our progenitor. Dr. J. E. Wood, the President of the Convention, was there and was the occasion for an ovation in every department he entered; so conversant is he with every sphere of our church activities, his words were both appropriate and stimulating to those who heard him. "The wisdom of calling the Executive Board of the Convention to meet at the same time and place with the Congress, is discerned more and more as the years go by. The Board meeting is the place where everyone having an ax to grind proceeds to sharpen it for the battle to be staged at the coming session of the Convention. But in the Sunday School Congress, expatiation takes the place of deliberation, and assimilation rather than adjudication is the key-note of every speech. Thus we have an atmosphere void of trickery and parliamentary fireworks. Under such conditions and deliberations of the Executive Board were conscious for the absence of ax-grinders; but toleration, good-fellowship and Christian preference predominated; greivances were presented and considered in the spirit of brotherly love. 'Behold! how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.' The dignity of the body was held in high esteem and any reflectory remarks were quickly retracted and an apology offered; the welfare of the National Convention was uppermost in the mind of each member. "Therefore, we conclude that the recent Congress and meeting of the Executive Board forecast a great Convention in September when we meet in Chicago. Dr. E. P. Jones, the Ex-President of the Convention, attended the Board Meeting, and although he is not a member of the Board from his state, he was accorded the privilege of the floor whenever he desired to speak. He enthusiastically pledged his support to President Wood, in carrying to success the program of the administration. That anxiety and hurry to get away so often noticed at board meetings was not in evidence. According to the program, a feast of good things has been arranged for the thousands who are coming from the four quarters of this country, including the foreign fields, to attend the sessions. The financial slogan is $62,500 at Chicago. The Sunday [School] Congress and meeting of the Executive Board at Cincinnati show that this will be the greatest meeting held in many years. tist.

"The program of the 25th Annual Meeting of the National Negro Business League, promises to be one of the most interesting and instructive in the history of the League," declared A. L.

Chisum, Field Secretary National Negro Press Ass'n Washington, D. C.—The greatness of the Republican party was ever more beautifully displayed on it was at the Cleveland Convention. Right-headed generalship directed that the old ship be reined to the safe moorings of the ship. There are certain fundamental principles of political party management and these were faithfully followed by those in charge. There was no jot of catering to any of the various mongrel breeds Republicans, either in the prevention contests or during the regular convention. In Congressman Burton's keynote speech, that historian, that eminent statesman elared unquivocally in favor of third party rule by whatever party was in control of the government and called on the people of America elect only real-genuine Republicans on the Republican ticket, and the writer quotes Congressman Burton: "The word 'Republican' is not a mere name; it is not a label which any one can wear; it is not a look for individual vagaries. The strength and usefulness of the Republican party must depend on the maintenance of enduring principles, in the advocacy of which, humph can only be secured by unity solidarity and an organization whose members unite in closed formation to do battle to every in a legislative mea ges greater look to the than to the AMERIC "The people have cured it.

AMERICAN PEOPLE BELIEVE IN- "The people—and all the people—have confidence in Calvin Coolidge. It is a time when there is a hunger for simple, robust virtues, for a leadership which shall be based on no cheap or selfish motives. In the great array of rulers, kings and prime ministers intrusted with power there is none who can surpass him in honesty of purpose, in courage or in high devotion to the welfare of his country." "As a candidate for the presidency, and this in the midst of temptations stronger than those by which the angels fell, he has shown no truckling, no scheming for votes, but has gone calmly and steadily on his way, unaffected by the lure of expediency or the promise of success." The thunderous applause lasting for several minutes which greeted the above statements, coming from every section of the immense hall proved that these sentiments were shared by all in attendance here.

A BIG CONTRAST SEEN IN THETWO CONVENTIONS A BIG CONTRAST SEEN IN THETWO CONVENTIONS Representatives Of the Race Scarce Around Madison Square Garden While Democrats Hold Convention. (By J. A. JACKSON) New York, N. Y., July 1—(A. N. P.): Besides the Tammyy folks of the United Colored Democracy of New York, Negroes are few at the National Democ- ratic Convention. In the matter of numbers, Chicago seems to be next in line. Simon Rhoads, the singer of Irish Ballads, is Colored Democracy of New York, Negroes are few at the National Democratic Convention. In the matter of numbers Chicago seems to be next in line. Simon Rhoads, the singer of Irish Ballards, is the spectacular fellow in Mr. Brennans group. He has sung at the Waldorf, the Pennsylvania and Astor Hotels, and in the convention itself. Mrs. W. J. Reynolds the Chicago policewoman, is another Chicagoan who is taking on national prominence. Tom Smith, the wealthy Baltimore man is here, and as usual both walking and talking rubber heels, but being seriously regarded by calls to conference with high fellows. Atlantic City is represented by Mr. William H. Gaines. Frank W. Reel, the custodian of the state house in Oklahoma City seems to be busy about something or other. He too will emerge as a bigger man for having been here. (Continued on Page 11) York--Hon. Charles W. Anderson, and Mrs. L. N. Fayerweather; West Virginia, Mrs. Emma L. Irving, S. R.

NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JULY 5, 1924 SHOWS DEATH RATEDECLINES CONTINUOUSLY Dr. Louis I. Dublin, of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Declares Negroes Have Overcome Serious Handicap (Special to Norfolk Journal and Guide) Toronto, July 2.—Dr. Louis L. Dublin, Statistician of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of New York, addressed the National Conference of Social Work, today, on the subject of "The Effect of Health Education on Negro Mortality." "The Negroes are only a generation behind the health achievement of the white people of the country," said Dr. Dublin, "not a serious handicap to overcome when we consider that they have had control of their destinies for only a little more than half a century and have been served by health conserving agencies for even a shorter period. The pessimism which prevailed 25 or 30 years ago with regard to the future of the Negro is no longer even remotely justified. A race, still living in a many areas under primitive conditions of sanitation and often from hand to mouth, is today enjoying a life expectancy just about that of the white people of America only thirty or forty years ago." The average colored baby, at birth, today can expect to live to be more than 40 years of age; the average white baby can only count on living 58 years, and this high expectancy has only been attained in the last few years. This decrease of the deathrate among Negroes engaged in industrial work is all the more remarkable, Dr. Dublin considers, because this population group resides almost entirely in crowded sections of cities where, heretofore, the Negro deathrate has been exceptionally high. Tuberculosis has been and still is the outstanding cause of death among the colored people, this statistician reports. One of every six colored persons ultimately dies of this disease, but great improvement has been made in recent years. In 1911, tuberculosis was responsible for 418 deaths for each 100,000 colored persons insured in the Metropolitan; in 1923, the rat had dropped to 246, or nearly one half. "The mortality among the colored policyholders from tuberculosis is beginning to look like that among the whites only twenty years ago, when the tuberculosis campaign was begun," states Dr. Dublin. "Nothing indicates so well the general health condition of a race as the incidence of tuberculosis and nothing reflects so PROTEST THE APPOINTMENT OF WILLIAMS Virgin Islanders Request President Coolidge to Intervene to Prevent Attorney From Becoming Judge in Islands New York, N.

President Coolidge has been asked to intervene to prevent "the civic scandal and judicial disgrace" of having Governor Philip Williams of the Virgin Islands appoint George Washington Williams, the present U.

The request was made by a mass meeting of over 1500 persons held under the auspices of the Associated Virgin Islands Societies at St. Marks Hall, West 138th street, on Sunday. A protest against the proposed appointment was also cabled to Governor Philip Williams. The letter to President Coolidge, signed by Casper Holstein, Chairman, declares that Washington (Continued on Page Nine) YOU PAY· USE· LESS CALUMET CONTENTS 111 BAKING POWDER Don't try to save money buying cheap Baking Powders.

Distribution of health literature, attentions of visiting nurses in illness, advice to mothers regarding their own care and the care of babies, recommendation for periodical health examinations,—all these welfare measures have helped bring about this reduction in the Negro, deathrate, Dr. Dublin believes. Colored children show the greatest improvement in mortality of any age group, he shows, and this is undoubtedly due to the gradual and persistent education of colored Features - Virginia and North Carolina News - Editorials mothers in how to feed and care for their offspring. In the four communicable diseases of childhood, measles, scarlet fever, whooping cough, and diphtheria, a decline of 33 per cent in deaths was recorded between 1911 and 1923, and in all of these except whooping-cough, the deathrates for colored children were uniformly lower than for white. The tuberculosis deaths among colored children less than 15 years, have been cut in half in this 13-year period. Great improvement has been made in regard to typhoid fever and pneumonia, which according to Dr. Dublin, indicates better sanitary conditions surrounding the colored people. Their present high mortality rate results largely from the chronic degenerative diseases as cerebral hemorrhages, organic diseases of the heart, and chronic nephritis. Cancer and diabetes, too, have increased in mortality figures since 1911. Syphilis and its sequelae are becoming more widespread and causing more Negro deaths each year. A more extensive campaign against veneral disease is advocated, to improve their welfare and lower their death rate. PAGE EIGHT সংখ্যা COBB DECLARES SEGREGATION LAW INVALID Prominent Washington Attorney Cites Supreme Court Opinions to Show that Property Covenants Are Void. --- Philadelphia, Pa., July 2. Speaking before the fifteenth annual conference of the N. A. A. C. P. in-session in Philadelphia, James A. Cobb, former assistant United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, declared that segregation of colored people was a violation of the federal constitution. Mr. Cobb said in part: "Several years ago there sprung up a veritable epidemic of city ordinances passed to accomplish the purpose of racial discrimination and segregation in the matter of occupancy of homes. Atlanta, Ga., Louisville, Ky., Richmond, Va., Baltimore, Md., and Raleigh, N. C. may be mentioned as typical of the cities which attempted to pass such laws. So flagrant was this attempt to defeat the constitutional rights of citizens that the Courts even of some Southern States put themselves on record as definitely opposing such legislation. * * * Mr. Justice Day, delivering the opinion of the Supreme Court of the United States, in the well-considered case of Buchanan vs. Whaley, (known as The Louisville Segregation Case) said in part: 'That there exists a serious and difficult problem, arising from a feeling of race hostility which the law is powerless to control, and to which it must give a measure of consideration may be freely admitted. But its solution cannot be promoted by depriving citizens of their constitutional rights and privileges. And further on in the same opin- ion, he said: 'We think this attempt to prevent the alienation of the property in question to a person of color was not a legitimate exercise of the police power of the state, and is in direct violation of the fundamental law enacted in the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, preventing state interference with property rights exent by due process of law.' "Certainly this would appear to be the last word on this question of segregated housing. But now the individual flat of a group of people, entering into a mutual covenant not to dispose of their land to people of the Negro race descent, is chosen as a means of doing what the Constitution of the United States, has indicated definitely cannot legally be done. "If the Constitution does not protect the rights of all citizens, it does not protect the rights of any, since it knows no distinction of race or color." ELIZABETH CITY Elizabeth City, N. C.—Dr. G.

Two alleged ring leaders, captured by the police responding to a risk call, were find $100 and each in police court, and were sentenced to thirty days in the jail. The men were Jas. higher and William Levons. According to testimony Jackson was sitting in his home, when he was warned to leave. Making no attempt to disguise, the men entered and said: "We are going to Ku Klux you." Jackson's six-year-old son said threats were made to hang Jackson as he was dragged out of the house. A cry, "police are coming," frightened the mob away. Jackson said he was offered $3 to let the charges drop. He also said $3.50 was taken from him.

That is something else. New York humorist explains that Mr. Harrison is not an Irishman at all, as his "Pat" The country has become so well acquainted with him as Senator "Pat" Harrison, of Mississippi, that it was quite upset when his proper name was given as "The Keynoter" of the Democratic Convention to be "Byron Patton Harrison." That is something else. A New York humorist explains that Mr. Harrison is not an Irishman at all, as his "Pat" would indicate, but that his "Pat" has been "adopted because Mr. Harrison's political community has never heard of Byron, and if they had, would not approve of him." Mr. Harrison's key note was very long, full of the flowers of rhetoric intended to conceal the keynote, and did, and it was received with a great deal of calm and undemonstration by the host of perspiring listeners, until he mentioned the name of Woodrow Wilson, when the Convention got a grip on its lungs and feet and began to perform. While it was doing so Mr. Harrison sat down and fanned himself and received congratulations. When he looked up Anna Case, who had sung the "Star Spangled Banner," had taken his place and was leading the marchers and howlers with the deathless song, "John Brown's Body lies a-moulding in the Grave," with the refrain, waving her hands as she sang and compelling the big Democratic host to join in. She then "turned the Convention back to Pat Harrison, but he never quite had it again; John Brown had marched and the best that Pat Harrison could do was to follow after," says the reportorial wag with a grin. What a strange thing it was, the singing of "John Brown's Body," marching on, in a Democratic Convention. It is to think. Editorial Page of The Late Judson W.

Dublin, statistician of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, delivered before the National Conference of Social Work in Toronto Wednesday, on "The Effect of Health Education on Negro Mortality," and published elsewhere in this paper are not only informing but present a decidedly encouraging aspect on the life expectancy of our people. In the course of his remarks Dr. Dublin said, "A race, still living in many areas under primitive conditions of sanitation and often from hand to mouth, is today enjoying a life expectancy just about that of the white people of America only thirty or forty years ago." According to Dr. Dublin's figures the average colored baby may expect to reach the age of 46 years, while the average white baby may expect to remain in the land of the living for 58 years. Bringing this reckoning back to Norfolk, so can the average white baby spend the hot summer days in a beautiful municipal park and inhale the open fresh air, while the average colored baby must take his chances on a hot porch in a dusky street. REVIEW Colored people have responded to health education remarkably well, Dr. Dublin admits. But if a continued decline in their death rate is to be had, something more than education must assist in the process. A more equitable distribution of public funds by municipal governments for a conservation and prmotion of the health of all the people must be had. Municipal tennis courts, golf links and beautifully laid out parks for the recreation of white people, but not a park with a playground and a few rough hewn benches available for colored people make it terribly hard for us to overcome the 12 years disparity in life expectancy Dr. Dublin points out. A New Power In American Journalism A New Power In American journalism We are all interested in the newspapers of the country, especially the great daily newspapers, as they for the most part shape the opinions of the community, the State and the Nation. They used to do it more than they do it now, but they do it now in a marked way, especially in the Southern States, not always for the best interests of all of the people; they too often lead in the creation of mob sentiment and in excusing miscarriages of justice which make for unrest and unsettled conditions of living and for the endangerment of life and property. The great newspapers of the country have become too much commercialized to serve the public interests faithfully. The personal responsibility and force which used to characterize American journalism have been almost entirely subordinated to the masked manager whose main purpose it is to get all of the money out of his newspaper possible by appealing to the passions of the people and their love for sensation and scandal, and all that. A new power in American journalism appeared in New York City on June 19. It is the New York Bulletin, an afternoon newspaper, owned and published by Frederick W. Enright, who already had successful daily newspapers at Boston and Lynn, Mass. In his first issue of the Bulletin, Mr. Enright declared: "This is a Democratic newspaper. And I have directed that in the office of the New York Bulletin, and in its columns, there must be no color line, no class line, no race line, no creed line." Again, in the issue of June 20, the Bulletin says: "The kleagles now are ranting in New York's hotel lobbies, threatening free American citizens and insisting that if the Klan is condemned by the Convention, the Democratic party is doomed. Any Democrat who runs before this threat is a coward who should be driven out of his party; any Democrat willing to ally his party with so nefarious an organization as the Klan should lose his voting privilege. "There is no czar in the Democratic party today; there must be none. The man who is nominated must be the servant of his party and the servant of the American people. Such a man can be elected." Mr. Enright may not be able to bring the Democratic party up to his high plane but he will make the Nation better by his preachment for equality in law of all American citizens and honesty and economy in the expenditure of public moneys. And we all know there is a full grown man behind the New York Bulletin who thinks straight Americanism and has the courage of his convictions. That is great gain. From The Messenger. The things for which others criticise Dr. Du Bois we praise him. We have been amazed to note some of the criticisms by some alloged intelligent Negroes of the editorials in the May Crisis, especially the one on Marcus Garvey, the best, to our minds, he has ever written. It was strong, vigorous, fearless and to the point, though belated. We became so enthusiastic over it that we are almost inclined to withdraw most of the nice things we have said about the Sage of the Crisis, and shuffle down to Sixty-nine Fifth Avenue some fine morning and extend our paw of congratulations to him for the noble job. If we had our way about the matter, we would not only award him the Nobel Peace Prize but recommend that he receive one-hundred per cent raise in shekels. And may we add that it is sheer nonsense to talk about not supporting the N. A. A. C. P. because of Du Bois' disposition to criticise other men and movements. In the first place Du Bois is not the N. A. A. C. P. In the second place it is his right to criticise whomsoever he pleases, whether his criticisms are sound or unsound. For God's sake let us hope that Negroes, oppressed as they are, will not become so bigoted and tolerant, that they will seek to set up a hateful espionage system over the right of free speech of its leaders, or of anybody else, for that matter. A Word To The Graduates School teachers are "short." If you're well equipped, you will have but little difficulty in being placed. If you're not informed about schools, write to the U. S. Bureau of Education, Washington, D. C., and procure its bulletin on "Negro Schools in the U. S." prepared under the directin of Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones. If you're trained in the arts and trades of industry, get in touch with the Employment Manager of any large industry, and file your application. If you're in doubt as to how to do this, go to the Public Library in your city and look for a copy of the Manufacturer's Guide. Political expediency, rather than pure Americanism and courageous statesmanship dictated the platforms of both the national Republican and Democratic parties. In reasserting their allegiance to the principles of democratic government and the federal constitution, and in denouncing invisible government, neither dared to name the Ku Klux Klan. A more glaring exhibition of supinice by those upon whom the responsibility of governing rests has seldom been shown. And the platform of the Democratic party is one of the most brilliant pieces of political hypocrisy manufactured. The provision that proclaims for law enforcement, which takes pains to address itself to every section of the Constitution, is a mockery. Every sincere and truth loving person knows that as an organized agency for flouting the Constitutional Amendments of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth, the Democratic party is without a peer. But party platforms mean he little in these times. Very few, if any of the commitments made during the hectic days of political expediency are carried out in the calm days of sober reflection after the elections. Regardless of how beautiful may read the platitudes of a party platform, the public has learned to take them with "a grain of salt." They are made to gather votes, not for governmental reform. For that reason, it makes but little difference that neither party named the Ku Klux Klan. Some day it may be politically expedient to name that organization in party platforms, and then both the Republicans and Democrats will do it. HAITIAN OCCUPATION Even tho a Congressional investigating committee and the white press of the country gave the conduct of the American marines in Haiti a whitewash, it now seems that all of the black spots of military occupation of that country have not been glossed over. Dantes Bellegrade, former minister of public instruction for the Haitians, has openly charged before the International Federation of League of Nation Societies that during the nine years of American occupation in Haiti marines have killed more than 3,000 helpless men, women and children. It is a serious indictment the former minister brings against the American navy. His charges are similar to those made against the German military regime in Belgium during the World War, except that they are more revolting inasmuch as the Haitians have offered no armed resistance to American occupation. Many delegates feared discussion of Haiti's appeal, says news reports, believing it might increase hostility from certain quarters toward the league. Evidently that hostility from certain quarters referred to the U. S. Here, again was shown the impotency and hypocrisy of the League of Nations. The plea of a subject people, who allege they have suffered untold wrongs from a powerful sovereign nation, should be silenced for fear of arousing the hostility of that nation, was the idea of the league societies. Could anything be more hypocritical? The Haitians may be at a disadvantage in attempting to show the world the inside of American occupation. They have arrayed against them a hostile congress, senate and navy department, and an indifferent, if not inimical press. But there is something wrong, most of the world already knows. How long before the whole truth will be known is now the question. THIRTY DAYS FREE TRIAL WILLEY A. JOHNSON. JR. Some one has suggested that marriage shouldn't be a permanent thing. In fact it isn't, because Saturday, July 5, 1924 But I don't think they mean in that way. They want to sample married life before deciding to make it permanent. Wives ought to be like anything else that you buy on the market. If you don't like her you should be able to change and get another. There's not the least doubt that this would be a very good idea and wouldn't result in so many bad bargains. If a man married a woman and then found out that she is not the commodity he thought she was, after staying with her awhile and why we could change and try to get in the market for someone more suitable. If things were like that, the advantage wouldn't be to the man always. It would help the woman also. Especially since the women are doing a good bit of the proposing now days, the law would be just as fair to one as the other. It is said that in some places such a law does exist and they have business houses that furnish husbands and wives. One has a sigh over the building, "Husbands and Wives Furnished on Short Notice, Money Back, If Not Satisfied. One establishment has an instalment plan, a dollar down and a dollar a week. They say, all orders sent out on approval. Without paying a cent down, they send husbands and wives for you to try out in your own home thirty days free. If you're not satisfied, you may send them back at the firm's expense. All charges are prepaid. Of course you have to get some one who knows you to vouch for your honesty. That's all they have to protect them. Some people get their goods and never remit. From that, they must have found the husband or wife to their liking. If not they would've sent them back too quick. Then there's another place which says its goods are better than any others that can be found. They say, "We have husbands and wives, guaranteed not to rip, ravel or tear and wont run down at the heel. With a plan of that kind, a man could keep his wife until he got tired of her and then sell her at reduced price. Some of the places have second hand husbands and wives. Some people seem to like things that have been slightly used. Some men say, they are by new wives like they are by new shoes. They don't like to break them in. Getting husbands and wives on thirty days free trial should prove to be a good method. Anything that does not come up to expectation within thirty days has poor prospects of it ever doing so. Of course some things improve with age. The longer you use it the better it gets. Just Think—A Woman's Done It By Roger Didier (For A. N. P.) Two classes of Negroes have been the cause for ear-to-the-ground concern among those of us who dextrously take ourselves from the mass and begin to look down, or over, at the problem of what people live by. They are first, a literate group almost festered from the rigors of suppression, and, second, that easy-going circle which has become so by virtue of a certain sort of prosperity and affluence which crowds upon those who worship at the shrines of either booze, boodle or brains. These classes are large and influential and they have been pouting about many things, the one particularly disturbing us being the absence of a certain healthiness in the writing of Negroes. For that reason, the pseudo-intelligentia and the well-to-do for one cause or another have ignored "Negro literature." They have not read it and, when asked why, have complained that they were sick of the propaganda stuff, that they wanted something that was good for itself, for, where- --- WHATNOT COLUMN BY ROBERT P. EDWARDS (For A. N. P.) 131. Was Egypt ever an Ethiopian dependency? Excavations have shown that for over 200 years Egypt was a dependency of Ethiopia, and that the Kings of the twenty-third and twenty-fourth Egyptian dynasties were really governors appointed by Ethiopian overlords, while the twenty-fifth dynasty was founded by Sabako, King of Ethiopia, in order to check Assyrian aggression. 132. What was the Wilmot Proviso? In August 1846, two amendments to bills pending in Congress were moved by Democratic representatives from Pennsylvania, one of which would bar slavery from Oregon, while the other would exclude slavery from all territory acquired by treaty from Mexico. The latter amendment was known as the "Wilmot Proviso." Both amendments passed the house of representatives, and both were lost in the Senate; both were renewed at the next session of Congress with the same result; but the Senate yielded on the Oregon question, and that territory was organized with a provision against holding slaves. Regarding the Wilmot Proviso there was still a great battle to be fought. 133. What part did slavery as, they might like to sing the "blues", they didn't care to read them and nothing else but. I think we are in for something new. An advanced and outward step has been taken by Miss Jessie Redmon Fauset in her novel (and novel is the correct word), "There Is Confusion." She is said to be the first Negro woman of America to write a novel. If that be so, then she is also due further distinction of having written something altogether different from what the men have attempted. Those Negroes who have been reading "Main Street," "If Winter Comes," and sundry others of the so-called real stuff can turn to Miss Fauset's novel confident that they will be rewarded with entertainment of the same kind and in more intimate manner. The novel has had its second printing. It is due to have more. There are few persons who will read "There Is Confusion" through and not recommend it, for, in the main, it is the stuff of life. "There Is Confusion" is the story of Joanna, brown and steady daughter of Joel Marshall, one of those affluent caterers among us who flourish in the twilight of a short yesteryear; of how as a girl Joanna hungered for fame and as a woman hungered for love; of Peter Bye, of the black Byes of Philadelphia (the entire story being placed in America's eastern province, highlighted in the geography of one's imagination by such flashes as New York, Philadelphia and Washington), one of the first families, and how as a youth he toyed with ambition and made a fetish of love: of various "types" of colored people whom you read about with a zest similar to that which would seize you in entertaining a long-absent friend of those who put German and French into their love letters, are proud, accomplished and brown with all that; a story of intricate planning which, as it works itself out, page by page, lures you into a fascination which is almost a frenzy. A woman has done it. Miss Fauset has given us the first sample of the newer sort of writing. It is a bone for the disgruntled ones to suck the marrow out of. "There Is Confusion" is infinitely better than anything she has ever done in a literary way, and better than anything she has written before would lead to expect. The humanity of the story throws into eclipse evidences here and there of a bad ear for English. We should thank our stars that we now have, in Miss Fauset's work "Mister Johnsonson", "Main Street" and that a woman's done it. Ira Aldridge, born in Maryland in 1810, is said to have had few equals as an actor. Most of his work was confined to the British and continental theatres. play in the admission of shoood of California? When President Tyler termed office, in 1849, California had become populous enough to be claiming statehood, its people were ready to an end to the question of slavery within their own limits, voting it down. With encagement from the President they adopted a Free State Constitution and applied admission to the Union. The pro-slavery radicals had longer any hope of making California a slave state, but the exacted a heavy price for allowing it to be free. The demanded the establishment of slavery in all the remains of the territory acquired from Mexico; (2) the surrender of a large part of New Mexico to Texas; (3) a new law, in the execution of that manna of the constitution which declares that persons "held service or labor in one State escaping into another, shall delivered up on claim of the party to whom such service a labor may be due."

TID BITS BY LEONARD MASSEWBURGE (For Associated Negro Press) Rings existed in the time of the earliest Egyptians, but probably they date back even further than antiquaries ca- trace. In the first book of the Bible we read how Phara- took a ring from his hand and gave it to Joseph as a man of honor. It was a Roman custom for the friends of the bride and bridegroom to meet at the house of the bride's father before the wedding, to arrange details of the marriage contract. A feast took place, including with the placing of an iron ring on the fourth finger of the woman's left hand, and the day was arranged which the ceremony was to take place. This formed pledge that the wedding would be honorably carried through. During the second century gold displaced the iron. The use of the ring did not receive the sanction of the Church and was looked on purely as secular proceeding, until the eleventh century. The wedding ring was placed on the woman's fourth finger because it was believe that a nerve from that finger ran to her heart. Although it was an erroneous supposition, the priesthood retained it in association with the Trinity, because in olden times the form of service was for the husband to place the hoop on the top of the thumb of the left hand, spring, "In the name of the Father" then removing it to the forefinger, saying, "In the name of the Son"; so to the middle finger with "And to the Holy Ghost"; and finally leaning it at rest on the fourth finger with the final word "Amen." When the inner meaning of it all is revealed, the beauty of the practice is enormously enhanced. In Africa the banana is the staple article of food, and every tropical village has its banana fields, as common in the potato fields of temperate climates. The Panama Canal is the widest in the world. The seventh and twenty-fifth Popes in the Roman Catholic Church were Africans. In 181 A. D., Victor 1st became the Pope of Rome and held that office until his death in 181 A. D. Melchiades was Popes from 810 A. D. to 314 A. D.
