(By Associated Negro Press) Richmond, Va., August 28—For the first time in the history of this city as far as is known, a Negro is to direct a white chorus. Joseph Matthews, director of the Sabbath Glee Club here, is now training a chorus of white men made up of singers from various church choirs who are "Shriners." They are preparing for a trip to Atlantic City at which place they intend, it is said, to sing under their colored director. Kansas City Call Declares Mitchell Had Quarreled And Fought With Young Woman's Escort Over Money. The Kansas City Call has furnished the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People a denial of the published statements that Walter R. Mitchell, of Excelsior Springs, Mo., was lynched at that place for an assault upon a white girl, and asserts that Mitchell had quarreled with a cattle stealing ring. The Kansas City Call asserts that the colored man had quarreled with the white girl's escort about some money he said was due him, and that the colored man had whipped the white man, merely thrusting the girl aside when she attempted to intercept, according to an announcement made by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People this week. The Call comments: "The usual confession with which moils salve conscience, is not claimed in this case. Mitchell's body was strung up with the mouth stuffed with grass. He did not talk the moment before death and the Standard says of him: 'Although kicked and cuffed and others grabbing at his hair, the colored man showed remarkable nerve. There was no cringing, no pleading, or yelling for help. He was either a brave, nervy darky, or else he knew how to conceal his terror.' "Mitchell was killed in spite of the pleading of influential citizens. He was killed in spite of the weaknesses of the accusation, and the lack of corroborative evidence. He was found at home asleep, he never resisted, he was unarmed, he protested his innocence and died bravely." State B. Y. P. U. Invited To Meet S. S. Convention State B. Y. P. U. Invited To Meet S.

CRUMP Richmond, Va., Aug. 25 —The stage was all set, the final arranging of the beautiful scenery had been suspended for a few days to await the strokes of the hour when the show would begin. The city of Richmond was the stage; the splendid decoration, with American flags and bunting, purple and white draperies that hung from every house and building, was the scenery; the people, both white and colored, of Richmond, was the audience and the 26th annual convention of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., the show. The blare of music and the swarming of hundreds of people that thronged the railroad stations and the shouted words of welcome as the multitude streaked in from every section of the country Sunday morning, August 23, ushered in what proved to be one of the grandest Elk conventions ever held. The entire day was given to the reception and registration of the ten special train loads of delegates and visitors that reached the city during the day. Sunday night at the Fifth Street Baptist Church the annual sermon was preached at which time such prominent Elks as Henry Lincoln Johnson and J.

GOVERNOR AND MAYOR ACCORDED BIG OVATION Richmond, Va.—Monday was a history-making day for the Improved Benefolent Protective Order of Elks of the World. For twenty-five years the order has been holding annual conventions in various large cities of the United States, twenty-four of them in Northern and Western cities, but it remained for Richmond, the historic capital of the "Old South" to accord the 80,000 and more members of the order who gathered here the warmest and biggest welcome and the most thorough official recognition they have ever received. In appreciation of that courtesy from this Southern city as many of the members and officials of the order as could crowd into the Rayo Theatre stood up and cheered spontaneously and long Governor E. Lee Trinkle, Mayor Bright and officials of the chamber of commerce when they delivered welcome addresses on behalf of the State and city. Governor Given Big Ovation When Governor Trinkle arose to speak he was given the "glad hand," but as he proceeded with his address it was so apparent that the Governor was genuinely in earnest in the cordiality of his remarks that he was frequently ap- plained, and when he concluded he was accorded a big ovation. Equally cordial were the welcome addresses of Mayor Bright and repre- sentatives of the chamber of com- munity (Continued on Page 5c) Lott Carey Convention Leaders REV. C. S. BROWN.

GRAHAM Corresponding Secretary GARVEY DISCLAIMS EDITORIAL ON COX AND JOHN POWELL His Telegram Practically Confesses Alliance With White America Society As Alleged In Guide's Story. AMAZES SOME OF HIS SYMPATHIZING FRIENDS Marcus Garvey, in a telegram to his newspaper, the Negro World, from the federal prison in Atlanta, repudiates the editorial which appeared in his paper of August 15, under the caption, "Marcus Garvey and White America Society," which gave the impression that Mr. Garvey was not in league with MESS, John Powell and Earnest Cox, "to further their infamous propaganda of isolation and degradation of the Negro in American life," and by so doing practically admit an alliance with the White America Society alleged in a news story in a recent issue of the Journal and Guide. The editorial of the Negro World, August 15, among other things said: "Mr. Garvey does not stand for anything that would degrade the Negro in his manhood or citizenship, and the White America Society, the Anglo-Saxon Clubs and the Ku Klux Klan stand for nothing, in the last analysis, that would recognize the manhood and citizenship of the American Negro in law. They simply use the 'race purity' and 'Africa for Africans' terms to drive the American Negro out of his social and economic rights and we are against them because they are against us, and we protest that they have no authority to use Mr. Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association to further their infamous propaganda of isolation and degradation of the Negro in American life." After reading the editorial containing that excerpt, Mr. Garvey immediately telegraphed his disproval to the Negro World, and said he regarded it an insult and an attack upon "these two friends" (meaning Messrs. Powell and Cox) and vigorously repudiated it. The Journal and Guide was the first newspaper to publish an account of an alleged alliance between Marcus Garvey and the Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America. Many of the followers of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Garvey sympathizers immediately branded the allegation a canard and vehemently denied that Marcus Garvey would consider overtures from the Ku Klux Klan the Anglo-Saxon Clubs or the White America Society. Mr. Norton G. Thomas, associate editor of the Negro World, himself apparently felt so certain that the Journal and Guide's story did Mr. Garvey an injustice, that he wired the head of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at Atlanta, informing him of what was alleged in the Guide's story and asking for instructions. The following editorial which appeared in the Negro World of August 22, in which is embodied two telegrams from Marcus Garvey will be regarded as substantiating such al- (Continued on Page Three) 7 CENTS At All News Stands and By Carriers TION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR PTION SAYS LEADERS OF TWO RACES SHOULD FORM A CONTACT White Writer Points Out How Discussion Of Community Problems Between White And Colored Would Help. THINKS CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE SHOULD ACT Leo M. Favrot, of Louisiana, field agent of the General Education Board, in the American City Magazine for August asserts that there is hardly any contact between white and colored citizens in Southern communities and urges that white chambers of commerce arrange to meet and discuss community problems with colored citizens. "The South has only recently begun to realize," writes Mr. Favrot, "that it can never attain its highest development while the interests and welfare of 40 per cent of its population are neglected. We Southern members of the white race too frequently think of our community life in terms of the white population alone. It is strange that we should forget the old adage that a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, and that link in the average Southern community is likely to be the Negro population or the community influences derived from it. " * * No Contact of Leaders "There is little opportunity in the South for the leaders of the colored race to come in contact with the leaders of the white race. Southern white people do not come in frequent contact with Negro physicians, dentists, merchants, bankers, educators or ministers, although the number of trained and educated Negroes in Southern communities is increasing every day.

Relatives of S. H. Winchester, 710 Avenue A, who this week examined the garments worn on the body of the man taken from the waters near the Old Dominion piers, by Detective Nowitzky and a party from police headquarters about ten days ago, are convinced that the body was that of Mr. Winchester, who has been missing from his home since Sunday two weeks ago. Reading in last week's Journal and Guide an account of the body of a man having been found overboard, led members of Winchester's family to investigate. The account as published in this newspaper gave the first general information to uptown residents that probably one of their number had met death in an undetermined manner. The published description of the body tallies with that of her husband, Mrs. Winchester told a Guide reporter, yet she hopes to the contrary. The disappearance of her husband from his home has been a puzzle to her and his brother, Mrs. Winchester said, and if the body found was his, she scouts the theory of suicide as has been rumored. She does not believe, and denies that there was any motive for her husband wanting to end his own life. Police have not yet listed the death as either a suicide or murder. An abrasion over one eye led detectives to be at first inclined to the murder theory, inasmuch it is it quite well known that Winchester was in the habit, of carrying considerable jewelry around with him, being a salesman for Spertner's jewelry house. The police, however, say they have not settled upon the murder theory and are considering probable suicide. A further investigation is to be made, according to Detective Nowitzky, which will probably include exhuming the body and considering of other circumstances known to the police.

This department has a membership of 52,000, and the sessions which were given over to the children was one of the most inspiring features of the convention.

I am sorry for the Negro who is being made a fool of by agitators and organizations who know that they can ultimately accomplish nothing in the midst of overwhelming opposition that will never slacken. I believe in aiming after the reasonable and possible." Subsequently, in the Negro World of August 15, an editorial was published stating what the editor believed to be the position of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in regard to the foregoing. Aftr publication of the said editorial, the following telegram was received from the Hon. Marcus Garvey: Second Telegram Atlanta, Ga., "August 11. "Norton G. Thomas, "Executive Secretary, "I am surprised at editorial in Negro World of today's date under caption of 'Marcus Garvey and White America Society,' in which I am mentioned as making statements in regard to Messrs. Cox and Powell, of Richmond, and their respective societies. I know nothing of the spirit of the editorial, which I regard as mischievous. I repudiate the attack upon these two friends, who have given no cause to be thus insulted. I further object to my name being used in editorial of that nature attack an organization of persons without my knowledge and approval. You will please reproduce this in its entirety. The policy of the organization has been defined by me more than a thousand times, and there has been absolutely no change on my part. What I stand for now I have always maintained. I respect the rights of other people equally as I expect them to respect ours. Useless agitation does not help and shall not be encouraged by me. I am no party to it." Mr. Fortune's Statement Mr. T. Thomas Fortune, editor of the Nigro World, adds the following statement: NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE World and feeling that I understand Mr. Garvey's attitude and the policy of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. I wrote the editorial in good faith. I see nothing in it to modify or retract." Beautiful Wedd Is Solemnize Charlotte Miss Ada M. Lias, Po Negroes, not members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, but who have entertained quite a deal of sympathy with Garvey and his program, are expressing amazement at his apparent confession of sympathy with the gims and purposes of the White America Society. They are asking the questions, does Marcus Garvey subscribe to the stigmatization of his face that is publicly expressed by Dr. W. A. Pleckey, Registrar of Vital Statistics of Virginia, in his pamphlet, "Eugenics in Relation to the New Family and the Law on Integrity." Dr Pleckey and Messus, Cox and Powell are known to have collaborators in their advocacy of the passage of the Virginia Racial Integrity Law, and it is also quite generally known that these men hold similar views regarding the Negro. "The variation (meaning between white and colored) is not simply a matter of color of skin, eyes and hair and facial and bodily contour, but goes through every cell of the body. The mental and moral characteristics of a black man cannot even under the best environment and educational advantages become the same as those of a white man." That is the published expression of a member of the White America Society. It applies to Marcus Garvey as well as to every Negro. Intelligent Negroes, who are able to reason below the surface of things, are asking if Mr. Garvey subscribes to that stigmatization in view of his virtually confessor alliance with the White America Society. There are now 15,000 public high schools in America. Dr. Plocker said: Beautiful Wedding Is Solemnized At Charlottes ville Beautiful Wedding Is Solemnized At Charlottes ville Miss Ada M.

NEW YORK NEW STEAMERS PAGE SIX FIRST CALVARY IS HONORED HOST TO GREAT CONVENTION Church Extends Ringing Welcome To Great Gathering Of Missionary Baptist, Who Come Here Next Week. The coming of the 28th annual session of the Lott Carey Foreign Mission Convention and Woman's Auxiliary Convention, U. S. A., to Norfolk, Va., September 1-1, marks a new era in the annals of the city in Convention activities. This is the first time that this convention has ever met in Norfolk, Va. The First Calvary Baptist Church with its most efficient pastor, Dr. J. John Congratulations on being able to bring such a noble body of Christian workers to the city, It's Object The Lott Carey Convention has its sole object to give the gospel to the heathen world. Its program is exclusively a missionary one, and during all these years of its existence 80 per cent of all monies collected has gone to the foreign field since its first session. This convention is one of the most unique bodies at this mission, and its meetings nothing is considered other than that which is related to foreign missions. This gathering of Baptists is concerned only in giving the Gospel to those who have it not; and in coming to Norfolk it will not deviate from its constitutional course. The increase of its finance has been the last session, which was the 27th, in spite of the economic conditions and hardships in securing finance, it raised in round numbers nearly $10,000. When it was organized, it began work with one missionary and his wife. Today it has more than 10 missionaries in its employment in foreign lands including Haiti. When it began work in Congo, Africa, but now it is operating in Liberia, West Africa, Haiti, and co-operating in South Africa and Russia. Slogan For 1925 The slogan for the convention this year is $100,000, which it is hoped will be raised that the work may be better supported, and Norfolk shall have the honor of having the best convention spiritually and financially. A most elaborate program has been prepared. Many speakers of note and renown will appear. The welcome exercise will be held Wednesday morning, September 2 at 10:30 a.m. M. Mayor S. Hetty Tyler, with other distinguished speakers, will welcome the convention. Response will be given by Dr. C. E. Askew, of Pittsburgh, Pa. Dr. David E. Over, of Baltimore, Md. preaches the conventional sermon Wednesday at 3 p.m. Dr. J. S. L. Holloman, of Washington, D.C. preaches the annual sermon to the Woman's Auxiliary on Thursday at 5 p.m. Dr. Harden of Brooklyn, N. Y. will preach the missionary sermon Friday at 3:00 p.m. and Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., will deliver the principal address at the City Armory, 100 West 42nd Street, at 1:30 p.m. E. J. Wood, president of the National Baptist Convention Unincorporated, U. S. A., will also present and deliver an address Friday morning. Men and women of broad minds and great hearts will be here from Boston to Texas and others are expected from California. Dr. C. S. Brown, of Winton, N. C., is president; Dr. A. A. Graham, of Phobus, Va., is corresponding secretary. Preparations are being made for 2,000 delegates. Pastor Allen is loud in his praise for the splendid co-operation given him by his great chancellor to assist public general.

They feel that their sphere of opportunity as leaders is limited by the fact that they do not have ample opportunity to get before the proper authorities many of the problems that beset the Negroes who live in cities and as Mr. Favret respond to the question of 67 secretaries of chambers of Commerce and that 78 per cent of them had no provision for consulting or meeting with colored citizens. Such contact is the more necessary, says Mr. Favret, as Negroes are not admitted to membership in Southern chambers of commerce. BETHANY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Though the congregation was not so large, the morning service was inspiring. Rev. W. Scott Miller, the minister preached from John 6:1-15. The pastor declared that all things are God's work and the needs of humanity must at all times be distributors of Christ's word—true agents of His power. Host to Lott-Carey Convention, Sept.1-4 THE COUNTY COURT OF NEW YORK First Calvary Baptist Church and its pastor, Rev. D, J. Allen, D. D. Dr. Solomon Porter Hood, American Consul to the Republic of Liberia, writes to the Corresponding Secretary, Dr. A. L. Graham, under date July 8, 1925, the following: "I am pleased to know of the 'forward steps that are being taken in your work here. There is every reason to feel from present indications that there will be very great development along all lines here in a very short time." Rev. Charles M. Bryant, a native of Liberia, and one of the foremost citizens of that country, employed as missionary under the Lott Carey Society in this country 20, to attend the sessions of the convention at Norfolk. Rev. Bryant is the president of the Baptist Sunday School Convention of Liberia, financial agent of the Liberia Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention and authorized representative of the Ricks Institute in Liberia, is exceedingly optimistic carey Society in Liberia, and states that the Society exerts the most hopeful influence of any force at work over the religious and educational life of that republic. The Society has on the various foreign fields some forty odd missionaries, and its work in Haiti has been highly commended by those in charge of the American Occupation and also the Lott Carey Society in Haiti meeting. Rev Bryant will represent Liberia as a living witness of what is being accomplished by the Lott Carey Society in that country. Rev. Jean Jacques, a native of Haiti, will render a similar service for the Haitian Republic, and Rev. I. V. Neprash will speak for Russia. Employs One Salaried Officer Employs One Salaried Officer The Lott Carey Society occupies a unique position among religious organizations in America in the fact that it employs but one salaried officer and that fully 85 per cent of all monies collected is applied to actual work on the field, and less than 15 per cent is required for operating expenses. So far as published reports show of the larger religious bodies, the Lott Carey Society is the only religious organization among colored people that publishes in detail its budget expense. Every time the financial statement is carefully filed the financial status of the Correspondent to the cost of a postage stamp. The Lott Carey Society has always stood firmly for the policy of co-operation and is at present working out this principle in a practical way with the American Baptist Home Mission Society and the National Baptist Convention, Unine. Through this process of co-operation the entire foreign mis- --- The First Calvary Baptist Church, corner Henry and Wide Sts., Norfolk, Va., was organized about 50 years ago by Dr. R. Spiller, of Durham, N. C., who was at that time pastoring the Bank Street Baptist Church, of this city. The history of this church is interesting in every detail, her struggles were many which caused hardships and great sacrifice on those who stood in the breeches and helped build up the walls of Zion. In 1889 the small congregation on Church street, called R e v. Madison Lewis, who served them and did a wonderful work until 1905 and when the summer he came a we re d the call went home to Dr. P. L. Wollace was called to this church, and like Joshua lead them from the wilderness of a small edifice into the promised land of a bigger and beter Calvary, having erected and paid for the present most beautiful edifice. In December, 1922, he fel a victim of death and answered the roll call. Coming of Present Pastor In February, 1924, the church again met and after prayer and much deliberation, extended a unanimous call to Dr. O. J. Allen. He came to the city full of zeal and enthusiasm. He has brought the church in the foremost rank with other churches in the country. The program of the church is a constructive one. Aside from taking care of its local ex- GREAT LOTT CAREY CONVENTION HERE SEPTEMBER 1--4 (Continued From Page One) istration of the work of the Society has been purchased in Washington, D. C. This house was formerly owned and occupied by the late Senator Champ Clark, of Missouri, and is one of the most attractive and commodious administration buildings owned by any religious organization among Negroes in the country. During the past year the Lott Carey Society sent out to Liberian a saw mill and industrial plant with other mechanical appliances costing about $10,000. Great Development Indicated pense, this church supports in full a missionary in Liberia, Africa, in the person of Mr. A. C. Faukner, of Baltimore. Mid. several girls and boys in schools and colleges are being helped to secure an education. Aside from the Sunday school which has an enrollment of about 900 pupils, 55 cottage Bible classes have been organized, which meet in the homes in the various parts of the city once a week and study God's word. This department has over a thousand persons enrolled in the church as due to the fact that the people pray and study God's word. More than five hundred persons have joined the church since the coming of this energetic pastor. interestes of the National Baptist Convention, Unine, will flow through the channel of the Lott Carry Society, and the burden of evangelical missions in Hawaii which for the past ten years has rested primarily upon the Lott Carry Society will be shared by the American Baptist Home Mission Society. The Lott Carry Society will aim to promote an elaborate program during the year 1925-1926 for the construction of buildings in Africa. Three commadious dormitories will be built and also a hospital. One of the features of the Norfolk meeting will be the dedication of the Auxiliary for one of the dormitories in Africa. The annual sessions of the Society are characterized generally by cordial Christian fellowship, harmony and warm spiritual server. Usually there are no points of order nor curvil of any kind. The entire atmosphere is charged with deep earnestness and good will. Special emphasis is placed upon the Great Mass Meeting on Friday night will be held at the Armory and the main address will be delivered by Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute. MT. LEBANON BAPTIST CHURCH Services were good and spiritual in Mt. Lebanon last Sunday. Increasing attendance is regularly witnessed at the early morning prayer meetings. Supt. Hill and other officers are leading the Sunday school to high achievements. The pastor pranched at the morning service from Psa. 55:22. In this discourse he advised his hearers of upon whom they may pay their business. After the morning and a number of members went to Tittsown and衣 shiphipped at Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church. Rev. Billions preached again at eight. NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE CONVENTION WEEK MEMORABLE EVENT IN SOUTH'S HISTORY (Continued from Page One) the World delivered short talks. First Public Meeting Monday at midday at the Rayo Theatre on North Second street, the first public meeting was held. A wonderful program was arranged for this meeting which marked the real opening of the convention. His Excellency E. Lee Trinkle, Governor of Virginia delivered a rousing address of welcome in which he complimented highly the work of the committee who worked so hard to make the convention here a success. He spoke words of praise, of encouragement and of advice to the order, giving many of the cardinal principles of Elkdom. A storm of prolonged applause greeted him and some in the audience yelled "Hello Bill" when he brought out the fact that he had Elkdom closing remarks after the closing remarks in all sincerity, the governor as sued in that the State of Virginia was proud to welcome them here because Richmond and Virginia were the State and city selected to be the first city in the South to hold an Elks convention. In this, however, the governor and the daily papers might be slightly less missionary than the 101 who while not as elaborate as this one, was held in the city of Norfolk, Va. Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Grand Legal Adviser responded to the welcome of the Governor, Mr. Johnson began by addressing his remarks to the Governor saying: "We have been in existence for twenty-five years Governor, we have met various cities here and when met in Boston the Governor of the State sent a substitute to welcome us. We went to Chicago the Mayor of the city sent a substitute and the Governor sent his regrets. This is the first time in the history of this fraternity that we have received words of welcome from a chief executive of a state. And I'll tell you Governor it makes us feel badly because the men who previously welcomed us in other cities had told us say and they told us say to hear what we had to say in reply. We could hear what they had to say but they could not hear what we had to say. But you did not do that Governor, you have waited to hear our side. "We believe in constituted authority and we settle our troubles by arbitration. These men and women gathered here are dependable citizens of the republic. We went with you to the dunes of Mexico with our Charles Young. We died in France. The dead are buried there, if you seek our monument what you can have attempted to kill an officer, we have never assassinated a president, we have always left that to the benevolence of the white people." Following Mr. Johnson was a welcome on behalf of the city by the Mayor who spoke very feelingly, relating at times bits of Negro history. J. Finley Wilson responded to the Mayor's address of welcome. Mr. Wilson's talk was rather long drawn out, he being so wrapped up, heart and soul, in Elkton he seemed almost to forget that he was responding to the address of welcome by the Mayor, to he outlined, step by step, the wonderful progress the fraternity had made under his own administration as Grand Exalted Ruler. Some one among the officials on the stage was heard to remark that Wilson was well feeling like a jungle man. Most of the people who did not have programs thought Mr. Wilson's speech was the closing address of the meeting for many of them left the Theatre as soon as he had finished. Tuesday night was New York night at the Coliseum, the Monarch Band giving a dance and entertainment called "Sidewalks of New York" special entertainment features attracted a large crowd, many of whom left at 12, o'clock in order to go on the midnight moonlight down the river. Wednesday morning the Grand Lodge session opened in full at the Rayo Theatre. Before the opening a great discussion was going on all over town as to the possible outcome of the election for the Grand Exalted Ruler. JOHN WESLEY M. E. CHURCH The Sunday school was well attended and the lesson was beautifully discussed. The Bible Class is taking on new life and showing marks of improvement. The pastor preached a powerful sermon at 11:30 a.m., using as a subject: "The Painless World," from Rev. 21:4. Father Miller preached another strang sermon at 8 p.m. The funeral of Mrs. Annie Davis, one of the oldest and faithful members of the church, was held Tuesday at 1 o'clock from the Pentecostal Holiness Church (in order to accommodate the crowd). The services were conducted by Rev. A. S. McGowan, assisted by Rev. J. A. Young. Mrs. Davis leaves to mourn her loss a large number of relatives and a host of friends both colored and white. EXECUTIVE BOARD OF THE V. C. E. LEAGUE The business meeting of the executive board of the V. C. E. Society of the Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion Church held their regular monthly meeting at the home of Mrs. Moody. The meeting very largely attained and highly under the direction of the new president, Mr. J. M. Galap. The members were served a delicious reprise by Mrs. Moody.

BAPTIST CHURCH The Virginia State Baptist Sunday School Convention which convened at the Bank Street Baptist Church last week had a live and prosperous session in which more than $600,000 were raised for general purposes. The various meetings during the sessions were enthusiastically attended. The delegates were loud in their praise of the arrangements made for their accommodation while here. All officers serving for the past year were re-elected to serve another year. The closing session was held Sunday night at which final reports and statements were read on the work of the convention. On Saturday evening, the harbor trip was given for the delegates taking in Old Point Compart and to the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal. Large numbers of the delegates worshipped Sunday morning at Bank Street Church, Mr. Eugene West, superintendent of the Bank Street Sunday school, Miss Milred Dudley and Mr. C.K. Wallace were delegates from Bank Street to the convention. ASSAULTED BY MAN CONCEALED IN ALLEY ASSAULTED BY MAN CONCEALED IN ALLEY Fred Arkadie Severely Dealt With By Assailant While Enroute to Work. Fred Arkadie, 915 Goff street, was attacked and assaulted on Water street, Friday morning at 6:30 o'clock while enroute to his work aboard the tug A. 1. Walter, by a man who pounced upon him from concealment in an alley. Mr. Arkadie suffered a fractured skull from a blow on the head with a blunt instrument wielded by his assailant, besides several bruises and contusions from being kicked about his body. He is in a critical condition at the Public Health Hospital. His assassin, who was identified as Matthew Brickhouse, was arrested and lodged in jail on a charge of felonious assault. He will be given preliminary hearings when his victim is able to appear against him. Mr. Arkadie states that no words passed between him and his assailant before the attack. He said he was not aware of any designs upon his life until he saw a man leap from the alley and felt the blow upon his head. The only motive assigned for the attack is probably Brickhouse entertained ill feeling toward Arkadie because of having been discharged from the vessell in Boston. Brickhouse was hired it is said, in his work, but going out, he was discharged in Arkadie, states however, that the man was not on watch with him, and he had not occasion to form his acquaintance or even to converse with him on the tug. Certainly, he said, he had nothing to do with his discharge. The day previous to the attack was pay-day on the tug and Arkadie says it may be that the man had robbery for his motive in attacking him. The injured man is said to b well liked by his employers. Says Leaders of Races Should Form Contact President Melvin Diggs, of Tidewater Inter-Denominational Sunday School Council urges every worker of the executive board to be present at a special meeting Sunday. August 30th, at 4 p.m. action on plans for parade, on communication from St. John's School, on plans to increase interest in contest and other very important business must be transacted. STATE AND CITY OFFICIALS JOIN IN BIG WELCOME (Continued from Page One) merce and each speaker was given a warm reception. In responding to the Governor's address Lincoln Johnson, grand legal advisor of the one who authorized the fact, all of the history of the organization this was the first time that a governor had appeared in person to deliver a welcome address. Mr. Johnson's response was a masterly oratorical effort, revealing the "Old Master" in his best form. He electrified the convention and received an ovation matching that accorded the governor James T. Carter, the beloved welcome address in behalf of the congressional and the Elk lodges of Richmond and Samuel B. Noble of Norfolk spoke for the membership of the State. The Mammoth Parade The notable event Tuesday was the mammoth parade in which between 30,000 and 40,000 marchers participated. The line was five miles in length and required an hour and a half to pass a given point. Stepping rhythmically to the blare of more than 40 brass bands, and respendently arrayed in multi-colored uniforms, marchers held the gaze and elicited the admiration of the 100,000 lookers until the last contingent had passed and the final tune had died on the hill. Never has Richmond has any Southern and it's a faw Northern cities witnessed a parade so liberally equipped with music, never was there a blither spirit than this extraordinary and mammoth event revealed. Although the almost interminable line tramped on and on the marchers appeared almost martial in their order and in the execution of their commands, particularly was the noticeable in lodges represented—lodges from New York from Chicago, from every large city of the East and many from the West even from far Harana. Richmond not only poured out to witness the memorable spectacle, Richmond was not only interested in this event that had honored a Southern city, but Richmond was captivated. White and colored people vied with each other to see that nothing marred the event. Wealthy whites turned the porches of their mansions over to crowds of colored people that they might get a view of the passing of the mighty caravan. Wealthy whites freely loaned high-powered cars to colored chauffeurs and maids that they might enjoy the festival in pomp and splendor. The city itself virtually went on a holiday, business houses and business districts not in the city, and businesses in order that employees might see the mighty Elks in grand march. At the intersection of Addison street with Monument Avenue, Governor E. Lee Trinkle and Mayor J. Fulmer; Bright, with members of the Governors, staff and many State and city officials formally reviewed the colossal line as it passed on its way to the State grounds. It was before the reviewing stand and the public proclaimed ranks of brilliance, and the band of each unit as it marched in review crashed out its melody in brisk, bonyant tempo. And it was here that the drill teams executed several of their more intricate movements. The parade was scheduled to move off at noon, but owing to natural delay in assembling such a notable caravan, it failed to start. The crowd of spectators, all disgruntled at the State fair grounds night had fallen. The picnic that was spread there was greatly enjoyed. City's Hospitality Great as was the parade, great as has been the convention, awe-belowing as it has been to see more than 80,000 Negroes gathered on the streets at a time, none of this has elapsed the genuine welcome and hospitality Richmond has extended to the Improved Benevolent Protection Center. The local arrival meet a committee headed by M. A. Norrell, arranged splendidly for the coming of the horde. City officials had been apprised of what to expect in the way of crowds and the officials certainly heeded the advice. For the protection of the visitors, double platoons of police were kept on duty night and day. Double platoons of police were maintained on duty at the various hospitals waiting against any emergency. Director of Public Safety Shepard lined off certain streets and directed the usual local traffic to detour out of the streets in which the Elks held sway. City Council had appropriated $1,000 for street decorations. The spirit of cordiality, the smiles of welcome, the patience and tolerance and poise in the desire desire in the appreciation to show its appreciation of the Elk convention. Daily papers gave front page space and a plenty of it to the memorable event. The order, so far, during the convention has been excellent. Of this the Richmond Times-Dispatch said; Liquor Scare Even Sergent Sam T. Goldship and his hootch-hunting squad were unable to uncover the normal daily flow of bootleg liquor. To all appearances the colored population of Richmond yesterday had combined to discourage the bootleg industry. The hootch-hunting squad had only one arrest to its credit at the hour last night. In the Second District A. Berg was arrested on a charge of storing liquor in a house in the 100 block South Third street. And A. Berg is a white man. Few accidents were reported at the police stations. At Eighteenth andenable streets R. C. Thomas, a white man, fell and injured his leg. Dr. Warren responding with the ambulance, found the man slightly hurt, dressed his injury left him. Everything that has been said in the newspaper reports of the Elks convention applies with equal force to the Daughter Elks. They have played a big part in the gathering, the parade being especially featured by their garb. An addition was built on the white house during Roosevelt's administration. Total registration of motor driven vehicles in the city of Havana is 17,464. WANTED W A N T E D -Reliable man and women to sell our jewelry in Norfolk, Portsmouth and s u r rounding territory.

Her compositions are’ popu- lar over the radio and ut the mov- ing picture theatres, Among her compositions are: “Three African Dances.” “Carnival Suite,” and “Assyrian Love Song,” all of which are published by Chappell and Co, af New York City. Miss Aldridge’s music room is ‘flied with momentos of her fath- er—the leostunies in which he ‘played Othello, medals, presents, and letters of congratulations from such notables as the Emperor of Austria, the King of Prussia und the president of Switzerland. She also showed me many news- paper clippings praising her fath. er. It might be well to. remind Negra Americans of this great Marylander, so | will quote from Le Nord, a Russian paper of 1868, which says of him in his favorite role of Othello: "No sooner did the Moor make his appearance than I felt myself, F ronfess it instantly subjugated me, not by the terrible and men- acing look of the hero, but the naturalness, calm dignity and by the stamp of power and foree that he manifested and of which he ailso seemed to be ignorant, con- trary to the custom of grest,ac- tors who very often on the stage appear too much pleased with themselves. He entered gloomy, mild and thoughtful. But’ under that calm air one foresaw and forebode the thunder, though quiet now would not tarry to break out; it was the lion asleep which even when asleep commands respect. At the first words he pro- nounced I forgot theatre, the ac- tors und even Shakespeare. | What above all that characterizes Ald.

Meets Distinguished Whites Among. the white persons of dis- tinetion that T have had the pleas ture of mecting so far is Mr. John Harris, secretary of the Anti-Slav- ery and Aborigines Protection So- ciety and Parliamentary Secretary. He has long been one of the lead- ing agitators for justice to the Af- ricen native, and’ is the author of geveral books on Africa amor them being “Dawn in. the Dark Continent,” “Africa Slave or Free,” Tt was a great pleasure ta meet him as { had quoted from both these hooks in my “As Nature Leuds.” Mr. Harris told, me some sur- prising facts about’ slavery, whieh still exist in many parts of AT riex, and particularly in Portu- xuese territory, The natives in Giese rexions. he said. are forced t produce the cocoa, cotton, rub- Der and other products. essential to the continuance of white civil zation, “The dividing ling hetween forced labor and slavery is a very thin one” he said, “and inmost Colonint territories compulsory lx- bor rests upon some form of do- mestie shwery. It is thus imperi tive that immediate action should he taken to secure the liberation of ail slaves.” As to the South African situa- tion, Mx. Harris foresees sevession from. the British Empire. ‘The Bourhons there. he said, would nev er be content ‘until they had the black man completely in their pow. ev, IU will be recalled that the bill the Colour Bar Bill—by which they had proposed to de so was recently defeated in the South AI- tiean Senate. Failing to get their way legally, he predicted that the “crackers” of that region would demand their independence pre- cisely as they did in the South in 1861. In the event of successful break away from the Empire, Mr. Harris predicted that that would bring about the final triumph of the South African native since the white man would not be able to hold out against the superior num- bers and survival power of the black man. : Speaking on the cotor situation as it affects the Western Negro, Mr. Harris deplored the fact that A- mericans had introduced color dis- crimination in England and on the Continent. Many of them he said were doing their utmost to get Ne- groes barred from hotels and other public places. : | THEIR LIVES HAVE BEEN BRIGHTENED Before After ee ee Ss Ae oN eA BURNS) |e ae Say eae Poet ow ae | eat r ooe e | F A ie. rainy He a, Nhat al ag to Tittle nervous, but will -oon be al- | aeeeaMeam cote tema right. ow ao His Mother | Fe ee pale ee gen a | pee et Ape Vee. 7 ae ea ee WAN Ree a an B Bei, gare ee 8) eer 5g oe oS ne MRS, JAS.

C.—(Staff Correspondence for the Associated Negro Press.)—Those who are studying the international trend of events, have read with much inter-connectedness in the Chicago Tribune dealing with the underlying motives of certain movements now in progress,—as seen by some. The editorial states that William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, warns racial members of labor unions not to be deceived into taking part in the American Negro Labor Congress to be held in Chicago in October. Green declares it is a communist affair. The congress is promoted by a group under the direction of Lovett Fort-Whiteman, an avowed communist, who has but recently returned form an extended tour of Russia, where he had been a delegate to the intercontinental convention for a considerable period following, where he was honored in royal fashion by the populace. This representative of the Associated Negro Press held an extended conference with Mr. Whitman on this very subject in Chicago recently. The conference was prior to Mr. Green's warning, and the apostle of sovietism was asked whether there is not something dark lingering in the woodpile of the coming October meeting. He declared frankly that there is not "No, this is an honest effort to work out a better program for the colored working man of America. He is not treated fairly by the unions, and we must find a way to help his development." "Is it not true, however, that you feel that the only way this help can come is through sovietism?" he was asked. "May believe it, but we will not believe it, because of my belief in communism, that it is coupled up with the congress, but it is not the plan." Nevertheless, Mr. Green says, "rouge" is the deep lying motive, and the Tribune proceeds to advise colored America what a foolish and dangerous thing is doing significantly, for the black." Negro Better Off, "In America, Than In Africa The Tribune proceeds to advise that the Negro is better off in America than in Africa; it speaks of the racial prosperity, particularly in New York, Chicago and other large cities and declares: "In the great northern cities, particularly New York and Chicago, there are prosperous Negro communities, possessing real estate and homes when unemployed but hits the old population with greater severity than the white, but considering all the deep-rooted emotions and instincts involved in the relations of the two races their association together in communities has been a fairly good compromise which for the most part works. "The Negro is better off here than he is in Africa, and the black population could not be induced to work in the city but be better if the Negroes had a prosperous state of their own, but that would take a miracle to bring about. "Red Communism means dictorship and the dictatorship of a minority over the majority imposed by violence. We cannot imagine a worse thing for the colored people of the United States than red communism, and they could help establish such an order by force. Any Negro who thinks that is his own people's worst enemy. "Red and black is a ruinous combination, for the black. The dream of the third internationale, of boring from within, of infiltration and undermining with a final storming of the works through the holes in the crumbling democratic government, one by one with decisions which are not political lunacies in this country. Thoughtful People of Both Groups Looking Far Ahead. Thoughtful people of both groups are looking for ahead on this matter of racial consciousness, from an international viewpoint. As pointed out in previous dispatches of the A. N. P., the entire matter is at present seriously aggravated by the conditions in Africa and China, super locations of color complex. The situation has become so critical for "white supremacy" in Northern America, that the tricolor nation has sent Marshal Petain, the hero of Verdun, to drive against the Rifts to be launched in September. This drive will unquestionably be decisive; it will either rout the Riffs and maintain in uncertain fashion white control over the African continent, or it will drive new allies to the Riffs; these will come from those nations who have bitter hatred for the big nations where might has been right.

MARK WILLIAMS, OF RALEIGH, DEAD One of the Most Prominent And Most Estimable Citizens, Suddenly Passes. by CITIZENS N. HUNTER, Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 11. The announcement of the death of Mr. Mark A. Williams at St. Agnes Hospital Monday night, August 10, came as a shock to him. But few, comparatively, knew of his illness. Mr. Williams was widely known and popular. He descends from an old, large, and historic family. He takes his Christian name from his grandfather, Mark Anderson, who, during his day, was one of Raleigh's most prominent, and best beloved Negro citizens. Before the Civil War, and in the years innumerable showing, he digged largely in the social and public life of the city. Mark Anderson Williams was in his 82nd year. He was survived by his widow, two daughters, Misses Vera L, and Luia S. public school teachers; one son, BenJ. W., his mother, Mrs. Mary A. Williams, of Orange, N. J.; two sisters, Mrs. Paul L. and Mrs. Lloyd A. Mulligan, and Mrs. Lovey A. Mulligan, of Brooklyn, N. Y., together with a large number of relatives. With the exception of the son all the immediate family were present at the funeral which was held from St. Ambrose P. E. Church, of which the deceased was a member. Friday afternoon at 4:30, Rev. B. M. Lackey, assistant rector of Christ Church (white) officiating in the absence of Rev. Myron A. Cochran, rector of St. Ambrose P. E. Church, of which the deceased was a presentative and the service impressive. A feature of the service was the touching solo—"I'm But A Stranger Hower he," rendered by Lieut. Lawrence A. Oxley, State Superintendent of Public Welfare among Negroes. His former colleagues in the Post Office Department served as pallbearers. The wreath of beautiful floral designs paid mute tribute to the esteem in which the deceased was held by the community. Mr. Williams passed through the elementary schools of Raleigh, matriculated at Fisk University, took the college course, returned to Raleigh, entered the Law Department of Shaw University, grad u t ed with honor, and secured his license to practice law in North Carolina from our Supreme Court. His experience, application, passed and was appointed to a position in the Raleigh Post Office which he held for 22 years up to the day of his death, serving under several administrations. He was modest in demeanor, capable, reliable, efficient. AHOSKIE N. C. Ahlosk, N. C.,—Rev. R.

And still President Coolidge says and does nothing to enhearten the faithful Black Troops which went up to victory with him in November last. Think you he has forgotten? Mr. William Jennings Bryan shows by his last will and testament that his talk machine was a wealth producer and that he was very thrifty. He left $860,500.00. That is very big money. A silver tongue that can produce it in the course of thirty years is worth having. But the days of oratory and great orators are in the past. Modern life lends itself to construction rather than argumentation. The trouble the United States is having in getting the war debts funded with foreign governments, who were glad to get the money in the World War but sorry to have to pay back in times of peace, should teach individuals that it is easier to borrow than to pay and that it is safer not to borrow but deny themselves the buying things they can get along without. But people profit little by advice and the hard experiences of others. They must try it out for themselves. Strife breeding organizations grow in the land. It appears impossible to keep the wheat and the tures separate. They must grow up together and be separated in the harvest, in the even. The separation sometimes leads to terrible sacrifice in money and man-power. It happened that way when the slave system and the free system were allowed to grow up side by side in this country. And strife breeders are usually busybodies with no visible means of support. We have a great country; it is big enough and fruitful enough to house and feed us all in comfort, but a large part of the citizenship think otherwise and are never satisfied until they provoke a conflict which destroys them. The farming industry is the basis of National strength. The small farm is the backbone of the farming industry. Why is this? Because the small farmer aims first at producing enough for his home use and then for profit, while the large farmer makes profit the main thing. The large farmer stifles the small farmer, making of him a renter, cropper, or wage earner. An intelligent Negro farmer with ten acres can raise all he needs for home and for the market, if he knows what to plant and how to market it. The Negro small farmer should grow in number as he would grow in independence and influence, as the tendency among young white people in the South is away from the farms to the city. This should be the Negro's opportunity to get more and more a hold on the land. Louis Phail, known to fortune and to fame as "Battling Siki" and the "Singular Senegalese," has had the deportation act read to him by the Labor Department, and he will have to return to "Gay Parce." Siki is a native African, and from what we have learned of him, we are sure he is still a child in his think pot. He has done nothing but foolish things since he has been in the United States, and that was his record in Paris, where he has much reputation as a boxer. Morally Siki is simply impossible. He may be unable to help it, but that is his misfortune, for which he will have to continue to pay. He had a bright future but he could not steady himself in the present and so fell short. There are plenty others who do so every day. They are the derelicts. There are a few white men in the country who think that they can't live and survive in contact with black and colored people. Mr. Earnest Sevier Cox of the white America Society is one of these. He is very much excited. He is so much excited that he is devoting much of his time to solving the problem by the creation of hostile public opinion and the enactment of race legislation which will make it impossible for the two races to dwell in the same environment, without open strife. He even wants a con- stitutional amendment which will compel black and colored people to go to Africa or some other country whether they want to go or not. He wants a great deal more than he will get. The job he has undertaken is much too big for him. If he sticks to it long enough it will break him all to smash in small particles. That is the way the god work in the case of such fanatical bushy bodies; they first make them mad and then destroy them. stitutional amendment which will compel black and colored people to go to Africa or some other country whether they want to go or not. He wants a great deal more than he will get. The job he has undertaken is much too big for him. If he sticks to it long enough it will break him all to smash in small particles. That is the way the gods work in the case of such fanatical busy bodies; they first make them mad and then destroy them. No Man Has The Right to Falsify History In his praiseworthy efforts to have the Doubleday-Page Company exclude from the memoirs of General Robert Lee Bullard soon to appear in book form, his falsification of the facts about Afro-American soldiers in general and those in the World-War in particular, as they appear of record and in the expressions of distinguished soldiers and civilians, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary treasurer of Howard University, not only rendered a timely service but he drew from Arthur W. Page, editor of the World's World the opinion that General Bullard was entitled to his opinion of "Negroes, even though it be a low one," and that we should not get on with the Negro problem if publishers make it a rule to print only favorable opinions on Negro activities." This is a very extraordinary position for young Mr. Page to take and one we doubt much his distinguished father, Walter Hine Page, would have taken. Certainly General Bullard has the right to write a lot of falsehoods and express a lot of rotten opinions about a whole body of soldiers, representing 12,000,000 people, but when it is shown by the record and the testimony of men as reliable and authoritative as General Bullard that he deliberately falsified history, a reputable publisher would decline to jeopardize the reputation of his firm by publishing in book form the falsification. We think young Mr. Page will look at it in that way when he comes to review his opinions as given to Dr. Scott. We certainly shall get no where except into confusion with the Negro problem as long as publishers of books and magazines and newspapers make it a rule to publish for the most part only unfavorable opinions "on Negro activities," when these opinions are not warranted nor justified by the facts and are advanced as a well-defined propagandist to prejudice the Negro people. Much of Southern writing in fiction and verse and in history, civics and economics, during the past half century has had this deadly purpose. The opinions should square with the facts. When they do not, the publisher makes him self guilty with the designing author of falsifying the facts. He who deliberately falsifies the facts of group or State or National "activities," is, on the face of it, a dangerous man. The United States has been and is afflicted with many such men. General Bullard is one of them. Arthur W. Page does not need to be one of them. In his praiseworthy efforts to have the Doubleday-Page Company exclude from the memoirs of General Robert Lee Bullard, soon to appear in book form, his falsification of the facts about Afro-American soldiers in general and those in the World-War in particular, as they appear of record and in the expressions of distinguished soldiers and civilians, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, not only rendered a timely service but he drew from Arthur W. Page, editor of the World's Work the opinion that General Bullard was entitled to his opinion of "Negroes, even though it be a low one," and that we should not get on with the Negro problem if publishers make it a rule to print only favorable opinions on Negro activities." This is a very extraordinary position for young Mr. Page to take and one we doubt much his distinguished father, Walter Hines Page, would have taken. Certainly General Bullard has the right to write a lot of falsehoods and express a lot of rotten opinions about a whole body of soldiers, representing 12,000,000 people, but when it is shown by the record and the testimony of men as reliable and authoritative as General Bullard that he deliberately falsified history, a reputable publisher would decline to jeopardize the reputation of his firm by publishing in book form the falsification. We think young Mr. Page will look at it in that way when he comes to review his opinions as given to Dr. Scott. We certainly shall get no where except into confusion with the Negro problem as long as publishers of books and magazines and newspapers make it a rule to publish for the most part only unfavorable opinions "on Negro activities," when these opinions are not warranted nor justified by the facts and are advanced as a well-defined propaganda to prejudice the Negro people. Much of Southern writing in fiction and verse and in history, civics and economics, during the past half century has had this deadly purpose. The opinions should square with the facts. When they do not, the publisher makes himself guilty with the designing author of falsifying the facts. He who deliberately falsifies the facts of group or State or National "activities," is, on the face of it, a dangerous man. The United States has been and is afflicted with many such men. General Bullard is one of them. Arthur W. Page does not need to be one of them. Excursions and Convention Expenditures Enormous Time was not so long ago when there was general complaint of the extent to which one group, especially in the Southern states, was joined to the excursion idol, in spite of the bad treatment it received from the railroad and steamboat authorities, shielded by State legislation, and the vast sums of money spent upon excursions. There is plenty of that sort of thing now, and it has its apology in the social disposition of the people and their desire to get away from Time was not so long ago when there was general complaint of the extent to which one group, especially in the Southern states, was joined to the excursion idol, in spite of the bad treatment it received from the railroad and steamboat authorities, shielded by State legislation, and the vast sums of money spent upon excursions. There is plenty of that sort of thing now, and it has its apology in the social disposition of the people and their desire to get away from the isolation of themselves by association with large numbers of their own. In country districts the excursion and picnics are the most handy and effective agencies to accomplish the social purpose and craving. And who need more the association and comfort of social contact than our group, especially in the country districts? The excursion habit has cost us a great deal of money, but it is possible that the expenditure has been offset by the advantages of social pleasure and comfort the people have received by such association with their own. It is logical to say that the convention habit which has grown upon the race in the past twenty-five years is the outgrowth of the excursion and picnic habit of other days. The latter was the satisfaction of a natural social craving for getting together for pleasure and forgetfulness of many vexations which hedge the race about; the latter combines this phase of the matter with the business purpose, as all of these conventions of ours held during the present month of August, and expending some $25,000,000 in railroad charges alone, have a well defined business purpose, the social purpose being made incidental. And these conventions of our fraternal, church, professional, business and educational organizations are necessary. They draw the people closer together and enable them to cooperate more efficiently in the control and management of the organizations they control and which touch the life of the race at many vital points. The race owes much to those who laid the foundations in their church, social, fraternal and benevolent societies, upon which we have built such business, professional and other development as we are having. The excursions, the picnics and the conventions cost the race a nice penny but they have their compensation in the confidence and education which come of mass association.

PUBLIC PULSE Up From Monkey or Down From Oceans Editor Journal and Guide,* Dear Sir: A review of the article of Dr. Morris your August 22, issue reveals the following. 1. That the "leading geologists cite" openly scout with scorn" the doctrine evolution. Dr. Morris fails to name these "leading geologists" are. He is on bound to give his authority if he is to main respectable. If his statement is for great harm might be done any youth reading it. 2. Dr. Morris' discussion of evolution reveals the fact that he has not the most equipment to handle it. First, his statement about "leading geologists etc" is not true second "would anyone trust in the conditions of a monkey's mind." Evolution not a question of monkey mind but of a general development or growth. 3. Dr. Morris proceeds: "First they have the whole mind GOD gave man" etc. Morris does not mention what GOD has talking about, whether the Chinese God Confucious or the God of Buddha or Zaster, or of Mohammed or whether a mighty God of American culture and righteousness with whom slavery and all man's injustices was and is proper to this. There are so many gods that in each clarity demands that we be more special. Then he must name his authority, where the Koran, Talmud, Bible or some other book in this line. 4. "And they call this science and we us to throw away God." This statement is in err, what is desired it seems is that throw away foolish thinking and ignorance because SCIENCE has given the world modern civilization as we know it, in Educational modern industry and finance, medicine, a culture, etc. 5. After quoting Darwin to Asa G. Morris proceeds: "that is what evolution did for the man who invented it. Again he is in error for evolution is not invention but a discovery and Darwin not discover it but probably one Anaximander Milesian Physicist about 500 years before Christ. Dr. Morris of course fails understand Darwin's note to Gray. Dr. Morris proceeds: "so does it do violence to my mind that accepts it." This statement has a character that I will not name, not desire to rile or offend, but evolution accepted by all modern universities, even the Southland and if there are any not riten, they are most certainly located in Southland, the hot-bed of ignorance America. 6. But as I proceed Dr. Morris adds that evolution is taught at least in Columbia and Wisconsin and he names his lead geologist, Dr. Shaler of Harvard but not grasp what Dr. Shaler is present namely Darwin's yet to be verified hypothesis, not the doctrine of evolution at all. Again Prof. Haynes, Andrews and I Aveybury do not either one of them discern evolution but some theory thereunder. 7. The simplest thing to do in this matter if the above criticism is not accepted it is not, is to write these persons in question, they surely are honest and straightforward if they are scientists.

That the "leading geologists etc.", "openly scout with scorn" the doctrine of evolution. Dr. Morris fails to name who these "leading geologists" are. He is duty bound to give his authority if he is to remain respectable. If his statement is false, great harm might be done any youth reading it. 2.

Yours truly, CHAS. CAMPBELL Detroit, Mich. "Garvey's New Friends" Dear Sir:—With regard to your editorial of August 15, 1925, "Garvey's New Friends," I wish to say that in my humble attempts to follow the principles advocated by Garvey. I have never been able to gather that he ever advised the wholesale deportation or emigration of American Negroes to Africa. What he does maintain is, that we are in somewhat the position of two men overboard who attempt to maintain themselves on a board which will support only one; that strong racial prejudice exists where there is abundant room and resources for each; that in all probability the day will come when the population of this "land of the free and home of the brave" will reach the point of saturation a condition calculated to intensify present hatreds and discriminations by reason of economic problems in addition to those of "race, color and previous condition of servitude. In principle the things that come do ever conform to the things that have gone before. My pinyin reasoning leaves me with the conclusion that there are four eventualities which might possibly deliver my people from a state of intolerable humiliation and comparative serfdom. First, that all men will embrace the religion of Galilee. Second, and third, that one of the race's will drive the other out. Fourth, that miscegenation be practiced until all become a common people. Christianity, looked on as an impracticable evil by the superior people of the period of its inception, has come far and accomplished things inconceivable except by the intelligence of God; but our hour is not yet come. Heaven forbid the horrors of internecene strife which would ensue in an attempt to eject millions of people by force of arms. "Lives there a man with soul so dead," with spirit so mean, who so despies the handiwork of God (himself,) and who looks with contempt on the natural economy of the omniscient being who devised races, that he would barter his being and that of his posterity—who would merge the identity of his race into that of another for a mess of very doubtful pottage? The only alternative is gradually to seek and to find and to develop one's own government. In the formation of states, it is seldom that any people migrated as a whole. It has never happened that the colonists who were pioneers ever reaped the full benefits of their labor and pains; but nevertheless, "The wilderness wild they defied; they became of the forest a part." Black men, why divide and waste energy in fighting each other? If Carvey's principles are wrong, "ten angels swearing they are right will make no difference;" if they are right the powers of earth and hell combined will fall to keep them from fruition in due time. Leaders of all great movements have been reviled and cursed from time immemorial. Great causes have ever been chiefly fostered and made possible by the zeal of the common people. Moses is over zealous and fails to reach the Promised Land. Washington won and became the father of his country; else he had been a traitor to his king. Mahatma Gandhi works peacably for his people and goes to jail. Garvey makes a technical blunder and goes to Atlanta. His brothers in black publish his shame on every hill top and blazon his humiliation on each signpost. Is it to protect the people that all this noise is made? If so, why not censure all deceit and double-dealing? Why not censure men who sell out vast enterprises of the race, bought by their blood and tears; men whom in a few years become from their trust richer than the trust they are supposed to administer? The motives of all men and nations are on the knees of time, and time the great augur will one day answer. Newport News, Va. Bryan's Theology BY WILLIAM PICKENS We have carefully and slowly read all of Bryan's last speech which he had planned to deliver to the jury in Dayton, Teen. As a piece of eloquence and appeal to the sentiment of those of moderate thinking, it is worthy of the "Commoner". Saturday, August 29, 1925 As a piece of logic, it is characteristic of those who assume a certain basis as fact, who start from certain very important premises as beyond question and above proof, as about all theology does, and proceed to all the conclusions which this underived basis and these inviolate assumed propositions will support: But as a piece of strategy for getting his case accepted in the court of high intelligence and unafraid reason, Bryan's speech would prove a flat failure. For example, he argues in effect that science is to be considered ALL WRONG, because it is not yet omniscient; because it must do some assuming and cannot prove and demonstrate every proposition it ever made. The "Commoner" did not seem to realize that this standard of truth would have been turned back on him, if any man with brains were arguing the other side, and that the call for DEMONSTRATION and ULTIMATE PROOF would literally destroy, not only Christian theology, but almost religion. Certainly the Bible of the Christians must be accepted on faith, if at all, and cannot get by if the scientific method is called for and if proofs beyond faith and inspiration and authority are called for. As an unanswered speech, Bryan's would certainly "go across" to almost any church congregation. But in a court of law, or in the forum of the great public, where somebody else was to "say something" on the other side, Bryan have lost his own case through the very severity of the standard with which he endowed to entrap the opponent. It can be readily admitted that about all "knowledge" is RELATIVE. But in a court of law, where, of course, "inspiration" would not be admitted as an inviolate assumption, the writer of "The Origin of Species" would have a thousand times more of EVIDENCE to offer for his position than the writer of "Genesis" can offer for his. If in the court of common reason neither could absolutely prove his case, certainly Darwin would cite many more facts and make many more demonstrations than Moses offers or makes. Relativity is a law of the mind, outside of pulpits, and so the more reasonable and better evidenced case would be "proven". The refuge of any religion is yet in faith—Bryan's attack on his opponent would have effectually destroyed his own defenses—before any human bar where his fundamental assumptions could not be admitted as FACT. But as we should not forget that the importance of this case, for the common citizen, does not rest in the issue of whether Darwin or Bryan is proven to be right; but in the QUESTION—whether either one of them should be allowed to make his religion and his standard of limitation on the curriculum of the free American schools. From the standpoint of this question, we should not care a fig which was right, Moses or Darwin, the ancient or the modern—but we should take care that neither Moses nor Darwin, Bryan nor Darrow, should be allowed to circumscribe the liberty of public teaching in America by the limits of his particular philosophy or religion—or non-religion. This case cannot settle the cosmic question of the origin of life, but it can settle the question of the freedom of the American public school.—THAT should be settled AGAINST Tennessee and the contentions of the late William Jennings Bryan. Harvard College was owner of the press on which the first Indian Bible was printed. The Poet's Corner To Make The Heart Beat Easter It takes a very little thing To make the heart beat fuster, A star thats like a poem, Dew upon an aster. Tip of rising sun over water, Lonely little moon, and slender Sunlight streaming in thru trees Song of woodthrush in the morning, An answer from afar; Friendly little wind, and sighing, A message from a star. A loved voice over silence Whispered in the car, A little touch of fingers, The falling of a tear. Yes, it takes a little thing To make the heart beat faster, A star that's like a poem, Dew upon an aster. "Up From Monkey Or Down From God" Dr. Charles Satchel Morris Talks on Evolution VIII Other Great Opponents of Evolution. Prof. Agassiz in an outline of comparative physiology, one of the greatest American scientists, says, "As a patentologist I have from the beginning stood aloof from this theory of the transmutation of species now so widely admitted in the scientific world. The theory is a scientific mistake, untrue in its facts, unscientific in its methods and mischievous in its tendency. There is not a fact known to science tending to show that any being in the natural process of reproduction and multiplication has ever changed from the course natural to its kind or that a single kind has ever been transmuted into any other." Dr. William Thompson, former president of New York Academy! of Medicine, rejecting Darwinism, says, "The Darwinian theory is now rejected by the majority of biologists as absurdly inadequate. Evolution never was the cause of anything. It is absurd to rank man among the animals. His so-called fellow animals, the primates, gorilla, orango and chimpanzee can do nothing truly human." Dr. Leavitt Expres, of Lehigh University, says, "All the facts of the past cycles of the earth are against Darwinism. Protoplasm evolving a universe is a superstition more pitiable than paganism which wishedipped Diana as the mother of Creation." Sir William Dawson, Canadian geologist, author of the "Origin of the World," says "The records of the rocks are decidedly against the evolutionists. The introduction of animal types must have been abrupt and by some influence quite different from evolution. Palentology furnishes no evidence as to the actual transformation of the species into another. Nothing is known as to the origin of man except what is told us in the scriptures—that God created him with a rational and moral nature of which there is no trace in the animal kingdom. Dr. Etheridge of the British Museum, one of England's greatest experts in fossiology, says, "In all this great museum there is not a particle of evidence of transmutation of species. Nineteenth of the talk of evolutionists is sheer nonsense. This museum is full of proofs of the utter falsity of their views. Prof. Beale, physiologist of King's College, London, who stood with Lord Kelvin at the head of British scientists, said in 1003: "There is no evidence that man descended from or is or was in any way specially related to any other organism in nature through evolution or by any other process. In support of naturalistic conjectures concerning man's origin there is not at this time a shadow of scientific evidence." Dr. George Paulin, scientist says: "It has been the habit of Darwininians to speak confidently of the unbroken chain of life from the paleozoic forms up to the appearance of man—but truth is there is no such chain." F. M. Balfour, biologist, Cambridge, England, reaches the conclusion, "all scientific facts contradict the crude ideas of those so-called naturalists who state, that one species can be transmuted into another in the course of generations." St. George Mivert, Professor of Biology, University, Kensington, said: "With regard to the conception as put forth by Darwin, I cannot truly characterize it except by an epithet I employ with great reluctance. I weigh my words and have present in my mind the many distinguished naturalists who have accepted the notion and yet I cannot call it anything but a puerile hypothesis." Dr. Jones Orr, the distinguished Scotch professor who traveled all over Europe and gathered latest views first hand says: "The greatest scientists and theologians of Europe are now pronouncing Darwinism to be absolutely dead. Even Huxley, Darwin's chief champion and defender, had to admit, "NOT PROVED and NOT PROVABLE." When Darwin died, L'Universe of Paris wrote: "When hypothesis tend to do nothing less than shutting God out of the thoughts and hearts of men and the diffusion of the leprosy of materialism, the Savant who in- vents and propagates them either a criminal or a fool. Negroes ought to be the people to accept the Co-guess. We are treated best enough when they believe in their full brothers, created God out of one blood. God us when America believes are a later and different shoot of monkeys. In 1900 on the assembling the International Peace Press in Paris, L'Universe in these forceful words: "The age of peace has filled the earth evolution has taken possession it. The plea for peace in years was inspired by faith the divine nature and in the vine origin of man. Men then looked upon as children the Father and war there was fratricide. But now all men are looked upon as dren of apes, what matter whether they are all slaughter or not." Darwin's evolution man Nietchte the brutal and bad philosopher that trained G many that the law of the survival of the fittest gave Germany the right to kill men till it surrendered to Germany as a nation of supermen. It shallen 50 million men and 10 million dead on the fields of Europe. Though men Negroes among them repudiating the idea on which this nation was founded—hold these truths self-efficacy that all men are created, the God gave us victory against land on that proposition. I coin reaffirmed it as he wrote off 4 million broken fetters "four score and four years our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, dedicated to the proposition that men ar CREATED." I am talking about being created in this notion is pledged to the doctrine that all men are CREATED. We have gone to the length now of denying they we not created, a fool would know they were not created FREED AND EQUAL. Let that proposition sink into the war of 90 million of people that life fierce, brutal war in which fittest survive and the weak are destroyed—strip from the poor helpless Negro the proportion of the word of God. God has made of us all. "What would men to do to you, do even so to them—love your mates." If in spite of that fifty to one hundred thousand Ku Klux can mobilize at the critical, beneath the foot of goddess of Liberty to intimidate the Negro, in the name of God whoorgies of blood will flow when men come to believe all men uncreated, are red hardened keys who have crawled up to long red ladder of life because they knew how to kill, tram crush and supplant. Evolution is unfolding its strategy for the great tribulation and Amenadon when the Lord says if were not shortened no life would be saved.
