Asheville, N. C.—Dragging the dinner for the life of the dead, and with their fuses, oblivion objection to hostile sentencing, a jury in Buncombe county Court here Saturday at nine freed Preston Neely, 75, colored youth, on trial on charge of having criminally assaulted a young white-married man of West Asheville, Thursday. When the words "not guilty" from the lips of W. B. Nixon, governor of the jury, a stunner will till over the crowd in a courtroom, who, with their girders, had virtually demanded conduct of guilty and the death penalty. The verdict, admittedly of the most unusual under the circumstances, was not less so than the A. M. Stack's charge to the judge. In charging the jurors as to a serious duty, his words command a "classic" to criminal suspicion and were among the men and most clear cut on jury yet uttered red from the North Carolina bench. turns Verdict In Two Hours because that freed Neely retired to its deliberations at 12:50 back and returned with its ver- sion 2:55 o'clock. The Com- wealth had prepared itself for gentuality, and just as soon the verdict freeing Neely was conceived, a cordon of soldiers, hayonets fixed and guns manned surrounded him. In or- to stay the feeling of the an- grove it was misled as to the state fate of the accused, sie. E. Swain, immediately and requested the court that prisoner be held for further imigation. The court sensed the image of the Solicitor's move, apparently assented. The ruse fled perfectly, and before the ruse was fully aware of what had been the soldiers had escorted by from the courtroom to the where he was placed in an unmobile, surrounded with offi- cials and escorted across the State into South Carolina, where he had free. Preston Neely's trial was re- founded. For several days publici- ling in Asheville against the colo- lated population had been grave the result of a series of criminal kills on young white women by colored men. Just a few before Neely was freed, Al- manuel, another youth, had re- died the death penalty in the court on a similar charge. Asheville Citizen, the local city, had in its editorial columns named Asheville's Negro citi- ties and charged them with fail- ing to do their duty toward appr- aching the alleged criminals. A respondent in another North City daily summed up the local by saying that "leading and assertive citizens of the town" that a "good lynching" was led to treat the colored popu- men its lesson." This correspond- ent so far as to predict that case either Mansel or Neely was mitted, grave rare complications did follow. "Positively" Identified Neely had been "positively" attified by the young woman as assassinator. She stuck to her utilization of him to the end.

She supported his alibi, which it was shown that the de- lant was at work at the time of alleged attack. addiers had been in the city for final days, having been summoned for the approaching trial. After the trials, they were in the city and walked the streets at night with orders to prepare the peace at any cost. Out of this tense feeling, and the vice Norfolk Journal and Guide Judge Stack's Charge To Jury In Neely Case "Your duty, gentlemen of the jury, is to find the facts. You are the judges of the truth, you have nothing to do with anything else. You are not to consider anything but the law and the evidence. You are to consider this case just like you would any other case and you are not to consider the fact that guns and bayonets are gleaning in the court room. They are brought here for the sole purpose of giving the accused a fair trial. You are not to be influenced by the fact that the jail was stormed. Public opinion either way must not have any weight. You have nothing to do with the actions of the law in fixing the penalties for certain crimes. Don't fear them, and don't fear public opinion or popular criticism. Fear only God and do your duty. Take this case and see what is the truth in this matter." tum "positive" identification, it was thought that Needy had not a ghost of a change to escape collection. Thus, the evidence, as gossiped on the streets before the trial did not appear convincing against him, but it was realized that publisher Jimmy was demanding his life, and a white woman bad declared he was, the right man. To worry, these circumstances, appeared not to hold my light for Needy. But, the able light of defense counsel G. Lyon Jones, who addressed the jury for an hour and 15 minutes, the testimony of Mrs. Moxley, wife of the restaurant proprietor, for whom Needy worked, and the clear, ringing and unbiased charge of Judge Stuck, held the 12 men of the jury to action based upon the evidence as they saw it, and upon the dictates of their consciences. And Needy was declared "not guilty." His dibi was accepted. Judge Stack's Charge In charging the jury Judge Stuck outlined the law and its stipulations as to what the State must prove beyond a reasonable doubt. He re-weighed the evidence in detail, then said: "Your duty, gentleman of the jury, is to find the facts. You are the judges of the truth, you have nothing to do with anything else.

ADMITS CHARGES, BUT LACKS JURISDICTION Washington; D. C.—An investigation by an examiner into alleged charges that the Pullman Company discriminated against persons of the colored race in favor of persons of the white race, brought by Dr. Crosby, prominent Nesro physician, brought forth a recommendation to the Interstate Commerce Commission here Saturday that the railroads of the South and the Pullman Company be acquitted of the charges. Dr. Crosby sought damages in the sum of $120,000 because of alleged discrimination. John McChord, attorney-examiner, who took evidence for the Commission in the matter, reported that "unjust discrimination or prejudice against persons of the colored race in favor of persons of the white race has been shown as alleged," and added further that the commission has no jurisdiction to award punitive or compulsory damages. He recommended that the commission dismiss the complaint and deny the conviction. repuration. Some of the grounds of complaint cited by Dr. Crosby, the examiner's sald, were countered by previous rulings of the commission declaring reasonable segregation of colored and white passengers on trains in Southern territory. $10,500.00 SUBSCRIBED IN CAMPAIGN Quota Oversubscribed By $2,000. Jollification And Thanksgiving Mark End of Arduous Drive for Charity LEADERS AND PUBLIC JUBILANT OVER RESULT Jubilation and thanksgiving marked the mass meeting at the First Baptist Church Monday night, when the Community Fund drive came to a close with the announcement that $10,500 had been subscribed, which amount made an oversubscription of the colored public quota by some $2,000. The quota was $5,000. The campaign workers had for two weeks ardently pushed the drive. The first days of the first week were indeed glorious, both in weather and prospect. But with the coming of some fair weather and with the continued encouragement of the campaign director and his associate officers, the workers took a new hold on the job before them and put the campaign over the top in grand style. White Committee To Help Previous to the opening of the campaign, the whit- committee, as in former years, agreed to match dollar for dollar every cent the colored people raised, up to an amount equivalent to half of their quota. Reports were still being received at the campaign headquarters on East Brambleton avenue when this report was written, and compli- ted to data of the amounts utilized by various individuals and organizations will not be available for publication before next week. Spirit of Cooperation The spirit of cooperation which characterized the whole campaign was unique, sided Jesse O. Thomas, Field Secretary of the National Urban League and director of the drive, who was brought here from Atlanta to conduct the campaign. Not only did individuals in every walk of life contribute either time or money, in many instances both, various organizations, fraternal and otherwise, made generous contributions. The churches, public schools and business institutions helped considerably to swell the total. Last year the schools gave $600 in round numbers; this year they contributed $1,405,838. Assisting Mr. Thomas in official capacity in the campaign were C. A. Palmer, chairman of the committee; Abner E. Kee, vice and acting chairman and Rev. F. W. Jaeos, secretary.

PRINCIPALS IN THE RHINELANDER CASE THE MISSING MAN EXPLAINS HOW UNIFIED PLAN HELPS THE CITY EXPLAINS HOW UNIFIED PLAN HELPS THE CITY V. E. P. Confident That Voters Will Support Council's Transportation Ordinance At The Polls Next Week. As November 17, the day on which the citizens of Norfolk will be referendum vote to accept or reject the Council's unified transportation ordinance, approaches officials of the V. E. P. Company express confidence that the result of the vote will mean coordination of street cars and basses under single ownership and operation. How Ordinance Will Work Explaining how acceptance of the ordinance will benefit the public the company officials declare that it insures busses that operate as a part of the local transportation system and that, give transfers all over the city; insures high class busses which will be a credit to the city; places the operation of busses in the hands of a company having financial responsibility and capable of rendering first class transportation, a company that will lay out a transportation programme for the future, as well as take care of pre-arrangements. The V. E. P. sets forth the statement that the present bus service furnished by independent operators, many of whom own only one bus, is not an off-duty service carrying sufficient investment to protect against abandonment at any time that the driver may so will. Believes Veterans Will Support It The V. E. P. further states that it believes the voters will support the unified ordinance because the basis operated by the company carry unlimited accident liability and not simply "your portion" of $2,000. Independent companies are by law liable to only $2,000 for identity in case of accident regardless of the number of persons injured or killed. To the above enumerations, the company adds that by the ordinance it will not acquire verbal interests in streets and Council may alter, amend or repeal any time with or without cause or to revoke any permit given the Company, and if Company abandons any or all permits may grant permits to others to operate on the abandoned route. The V. E. P. calls attention to the fact that about 20 civic organizations in the city have ordered the ordinance, and many of these are actively working for its success at the polls. The membership of these organizations comprise some of the most farsighted citizens in Norfolk, and persons whose interest in the ordinance could not possibly Darrow And Hayes Fighting For Acquittal In Case Of Dr. Sweet be construed as arising from any other considerations that for the welfare of Norfolk. The public is also reminded that two thirds of the independent bus owners have sold their equipment to the traction company, believing as they have publicly stated, that the unified transportation ordinance holds a solution to the city's transportation problem as well as being conducive to the growth of the community. Inasmuch, as the ordinance was passed by the Council after prolonged deliberation, public hearing and discussion, the citizens of Norfolk will stand behind their Council and vote for unified transportation. TO ASK VIRGINIA CONGRESSMEN TO AID GARVEY TO ASK VIRGINIA CONGRESSMEN TO AID GARVEY Petition Signed At Mass Meeting Sunday Will Be Forwarded To Washington In Interest of U. N. L. A. Head Members of the Universal Negro Improvement Association throughout the country have launched a Garvey sentiment campaign, in which they hope to grieve the country to move for the liberation of their leader from the federal prison at Atlanta. Congressmen are to be overwhelmed with an avalanche of petitions. A crowd numbering around 200 person, or about as many as could get into the building, greeted with coiffed nophone an address which searched to the heights of obequence and oratory, delivered by Mrs. M.

The occasion was a mass no time for the purpose of fostering public sentiment favorable to the immediate release of Mitreus Garvey from prison.

Eleven Defendants Being Tried Jointly; Prosecution Outlines State's Theory; Says Shooting Unprovoked. Detroit, Mich—Clarence Darrow and Arthur Garfield Hayes are fighting for an acquittal of Dr. O. H. Sweet and ten other defendants on trial here this week before Judge Frank Murphy in Recorder's Court on a charge of first degree murder, growing out of the killing of Leon F. Breiner, white. Dr. William Bryan, Wayne county medical examiner, one of the first witnesses called, described his post mortem examination of Breiner's body. He said the death was caused by internal hemorrhage following gunshot wounds. Darrow confined his examination to two questions. His cross-examination questions were: "Doctor, you did not find the bullet?" The answer was "No." "So far as you know it has not been found?" "That is correct," the witness replied. Prosecuting Attorney Robert M. Tons, in his opening statement said it was the theory of the people that eleven defendants willful, and with malice affronted ought armed and banded themselves to gather with a common agreement that one or more of them would shoot in the event any attack, however slight. Following this statement, the jury which it took nearly five days to select, took their places and Tons proceeded to outline his case. He said that Dr. Sweet bought a house at 2960 Garland avenue, last June, but made no attempt to occupy it until September 8, the day before the shooting. On September 9, Toms said, a large quantity of groceries were bought and the defrauders came singly to the house before nightfall. Prior to the shooting, he said, there were about 70 people in the street near Dr. Sweet's house but there was no disturbance. Two volleys were fired from the house, one bullet striking breiner in the back and passing through his body. All the shots he said were fired by the defendants with the exception of one aimed by a police officer at two men who, the testimony indicated, were firing from an upper porch at the rear of Sweet's house. At the time of the shooting, Toms said, eight patrolmen with three officers had been detailed for duty during the house to prevent any disruption. --- --- The answer was "No." (Continued on Page Six) BUSMEN SAY THE SYSTEM BEST FOR RACE RELATIONS Claim Separate Vehicles Assure Amicable Race Relations That Now Exist In This City. The colored busmen are broad casting a statement to the citizens of Norfolk, defining the present transportation system as one of the surest ways to maintain the present amicable race relations in the city. In an appeal to the voters to reject the Council's unified transportation ordinance at the polls November 17, the busmen say: "Every citizen who desires to have the continued good feeling; the happiness of separate riding in their own buses, will vote against the ordinance, and by so doing keep intact the present transportation system." The busmen also assert they are giving satisfaction and will do better when the matter is finally settled, if the settlement is favorable to their stand. In a statement to the Journal and Guide this week, officers of the Bus Association stated that the colored citizens of the city have never enjoyed a more friendly feeling with the white people than at the present time. These officers continued: "Never have each once striven to make the other more happy than in the past four years. It matters not who attempts to insult the real citizens of your community, white or colored, we have presented it with indignation. This feeling is not momentary, it has been steadily built up because there has been a kind disposition not only to live, but to give us an opportunity to express ourselves in education, business and finance. The past has been blazoned with a torch light of progress and our boys and girls have been smiling for a greater future, but now our City Fathers, the majority of them, have voted for an ordinance, which if passed on Tuesday next, November 17, will be a set back to their aspirations for independence and fair play." The bossman assert that acceptance of the ordinance will virtually constitute voting to perpetuate a monopoly to the detriment of the small transportation vendor. They state that they are trusting to the public to see what they believe to be the true situation and vote against the ordinance.

Largest Circulation In The South PRICE 7 CENTS RHINELANDER LOVE NOTES READ AT TRIAL Defense Attorney Declares Young Millionaire Knew His Bride May Have Had Colored Blood Before Marriage DEFENSE ADMITS OLORED BLOOD White Plains, N. Y.—Former Justice L. N. Mills, attorney for the Rhinelander family pictures Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinelander as a scheming, designing sophisticated vampire, whose wiles an unsophisticated boy, "upon whom no woman had ever before smiled" was unable to resist. White Plains, N. Y.—Scores of colored people sat intensely interested among the spectators in Justice Morschaner's court here Monday, when the Leonard Kip Rhinelander marriage annulment got under way. Young Rhinelander, scion of the millionaire Kip and Rhinelanders, is suing his pretty bride, Mrs. Alice Joye a Rhinelander, for annulment of their marriage on the grounds that she has colored blood in her veins, and concealed that fact from him at the time of their betrothed. Former Justice Isaac N. Mills is appearing for Rhinelander and Lee Parsons Davis is counsel for Mrs. Rhinelander. Wealth Summoned Arrayed on one side in this famous case is a beautiful young woman, the Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinelander, with her parents of modest means, her father being a tacit cab driver, who live and move among people of like modest means. Through marriage the beautiful young woman of the modestly circumstanced family has been lifted into the glided society of the wives of millionaires, and had bestowed upon her the luxuries that millions can buy. She and her family are fighting that she may retain the Rhinelander name and the prestige that goes with it. On the other side, is young Kip Rhinelander, son of a long line of wealth, prestige and social heritage, every dollar and every ounce of which is now brought to the fore to squeeze the pretty young woman out of the family on the grounds that in her blood is the tinge of Negro. Love Morsels Read The Rhinelanders hope to prove that Alice Jones was a beautiful, sophisticated, wiley and designing vampire, and that she deliberately entrapped her young husband into the snare of her affection. Mr. Mills depicts Rhinelander as an unphisticated chap, upon whom no woman had ever smiled; who was practically unnoticed by other young women on account of an impediment in his speech. This young man, Mills claims, was naturally an easy victim for whom he claims was the beautiful young adventurers who knew of her racial lineage, yet concealed it from the object of her quest. Lee Parsons Davis, representing Mrs. Rhinelander and her family, admits that Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinelander may have in her blood of trace of Negro, but contends her husband knew of this before their marriage. It is the fight of the Rhinelander family, and not of the young husband, says Mr. Davis, who declared that when Rhinelander was shown the newspaper story of his wife being colored said, "Never mind Alice, I am the one who should care, and I don't." Wrote 420 Letters According to the defense attorney, Alice was a prolific letter writer. She wrote some 420 misives, he said, most of them white Leonard was at school in Arizona. On November 17, 1921, she wrote: "Listen Leonard, I have had some sweethearts, but I never let them caress me the way you do. Wouldn't it be great if you had me to yourself alone?" On December 23, 1921, the couple registered at the Marie Antoinette Hotel as man and wife, where they stayed for five days, according to Mr. Mills. Of this episode she later wrote: "When we were at the Marie Antoinette I had no idea you loved me." Attorney Mills said: "She sought to lure him into an engagement, finally she got a ring from him, and she had the gift engraved: 'Alice B. Jones from (Continued on Page Sin).'

OLNEY ROAD The Norfolk Bus Situation The Colored citizens of this city have never enjoyed a more friendly feeling with the White people than the present time. Never has each striven to make the other more happy than for the last four or five years. It matters not who attempts to insult the real citizens of our White people as well as our own race we have resented it with indignation. This feeling is not momentary it has been steadily built up because there has been a kind disposition to not only live but to give us an opportunity to express ourselves in education, business and finance. No people can think well who are cramped, pushed aside and cowered down. The past has been blazoned with a torch light of progress and our boys and girls have been smiling for a greater future but our city fathers, the majority of them, have signed an Ordinance, which if passed, on Tuesday next, Nov. 17, will be a set back to their aspirations for independence and fair play. Every citizen who desires to have the continued good feeling; the happiness of separate riding in their own busses; will vote against the Ordinance which will keep intact the present system. The Norfolk Bus Association is giving satisfaction and will do better when the matter is finally settled. Thousands signed the petition for the Busses to remain, now thousands must vote Tuesday next to see that they remain. Trusting every loyal citizen will rally to the cause of truth and that the small man or busy man may live as well as Monopolies. Norfolk Bus Association, Inc.

THOMAS W. YOUNG Norfolk, Va., Nov. 7—The Bear Brigade of Shaw University wends its submissive footsteps Southward after its fruitless encounter here today with Hampton's formidable Seasiders from which the latter emerged on the long end of a 3-0 score. The game was exciting and breath-taking throut; both teams fought persistently from the initial whistle to the last report of the timekeepers's signal, and a marked degree of sportsmanship was exhibited on both sides. But the Bears won glory in spite of their defeat. They maneuvered desperately from the outset and only the impenetrable line of the Seasiders stemmed the onshoot of Shaw's powerful backs. Hampton merely outplayed and outguessed her rivals, and her victory can be summed up in a very few wards. The first half was a scoreless one although both teams were threatened. Byrd, substituting for Jacobs in quarterback, was piloting his formidable eleven with rare consistency and skill. Hampton was in possession of the pigskin on Shaw's 15 yard line. Scott struck for 4 yards. Thatcher for 3 and Byrd wrigled through left guard for 6 more and first down on the Bear's 31 yard stripe. Thatcher hit 3 yards off right tickle and Byrd followed with 4. Scott drew 2 and Byrd made it another first down when he drove to Shaw's 21 yard line. Scott piloted through right, guard for 4 yards and Byrd took all the remaining through right guard for first and ten save one yard and Shaw called time. Hampton stands were in an uprune and pleading for a touchdown. Thatcher netted 3 yards for first down on the 18 yard parallel. The Bear growled and defended the charging Seasiders. Williams failed to gain on two plays; another smash by Hampton and the ball was still on the 18 yard line. Baker, the Seasiders' dependable and capable kicker, was cushed into the fray and on the next play he sent the oval between the uprights from a difficult angle. At the outset, the "Tar Heels" established a frightening pace, but the Blue and White soon found their gain and checked the Bear before his triumph, march had reached a climax. Martin, who performed his part in the Shaw backfield with unusual brilliance and telling results, worked his way 18 yards up the field with a punt to his 12 yard mark. Passing as only an artist can do, Martin twirked the ball to Dolez, who had just been substituted, and who traveled 11 yard for first down. Ruffin downed Carrington for a 2 yard loss, but Martin passed to Mitchell for 6 yards, and followed with another transfer to Spruill which batted 25 yards. The quarter ended with the ball in Shaw's possession on the 17 yard stripe and the Shawites yelling for a store. Seasiders Hold Bears At the beginning of the second period, Mitchell opened what appeared to be a staring campaign on the receiving end of the Bear's dangerous aerial attack when he grabbed the pigskin delivered by Carrington for a 9 yard advance. Mitchell hit the line on the next play for 2 yards and first down. However with stars like Pindle Fortune Lee and Ruffin constituting Hampton's bulwark, and Vesbough and Davis performing their duties, Hampton held the stalwart Bear Brigade for three downs, and Thatcher ended their hopes when he blocked their pass behind the goal line on the next down. For Shaw. Martin was the hero exhibiting caviable wares on the delivery end of the Bear's acrid offence, and displaying skill and judgment in the painting department, while his speedy, puzzling end runs gained much ground for his mates. Carrington proved himself a worthy pilot, while Mitchell and Chambers frequently hole in their opponent's line. Hughes and Spruill were definite assets in the fore, and Captain Gill led his commates perceptibly. Hampton--3 Shaw--0 Davis L. E. McClaren Lee L. T. Hughes Alexander L. G. Pridgen Pindle (c) C.

The Methodist received the kickoff and opened a vicious drive with Branch, Berry and Taylor alternating in carrying the ball to the five-yard line, Denny carrying it over for the first touchdown. Branch place-kivked for the extra point. Albion was kept constantly on the defensive during the first half, fighting often within her twenty yard line.

In the second half Albion received the kickoff and after making two first downs fumbled. Merrison of Kittrell covered the ball on thirty five yard line. A beautiful pass from Coleman to L. Saunders placed the ball on the fifteen yard line. Coleman and Branch carried it to the three yard line. Berry carried it over for the last score. Branch failed to get the extra point in placement. The plunging of Branch and the running of Berry and Taylor was the feature of the work of the backfield, while the tackling of Denny, Booker Ableman and C. Saunders was hard and clean. J.

TUSKIGEE BEATS ALABAMA STATE Montgomery, Ala.—Taking to the air in brilliant fashion, the Tuskegee Tigers finally succeeded in downing State Normal at Crompton Bowl Saturday afternoon by a score of 14 to 0 after the two teams had fought on comparatively even terms for most of the battle. The first Tiger counter came in the first quarter after a forward pass and several long runs and put the ball within striking distance of the Normal goal. Joyner took the ball over from the five yard line. Stevenson kicked forward. Passes carried the ball down the field and deep into Normal territory again in the final moments of play and Bailey punched out a tally on the fourth down with six inches to go. Stevenson added the extra point by kickin an easy goal. Tuskegee's passes were hurled for long distances, landing in the arms of the receivers with a vicious plunk that could be heard all over the field. Stevenson's arm was in fine shape and he placed his tosses with deadly precision. Normal, fighting against the breaks and dazzling flashes of ability on the part of the Tigers, threatened constantly, long end runs and nice off tackle plays bringing the fans to their feet with suspense. In the first few minutes of play State Norma flashed an offense and started a march for a touchdown. H. Jones, halfback for the Normal team broke through the Cadets line and ran 40 yards. After being tackled Jones fumbled and Stevenson recovered for Tuskegee on his own 30 yard line. 'This run was easily the longest of the game and Jones did nice work in stepping his way through the heavy line and was stopped by the visitors' safety player.

Braunx's funnel of a punt, recovery of the ball by Jeffries of Seminary, who placed it on Union's 30 yard line, a circle of Union's left end by the flashy Wheedle for 25 yards, placing the oval on Union's 6 yard line and the taking of it over by Brown on the fourth down, briefly sum up Seminary's victory, which came in the first quarter. The Dragons seriously threw it attended to score again in the fourth quarter, when Wheedge received one of Breaux's pants and returne it 25 yards, placing the Dragons in scoring position. Here a desperate drive was stopped by a five yard penalty on Union's 12 yard line, with one minute to play. The game ended with the ball in Union's possession on her 12 yard line. Seminary made 9 first downs; Union two. For Seminary, Wheed, Beeen, Brown Poll, and Watson starred; for Union, Tobia, Breaux and Houston alone. Seminary was never in danger of the Panthers, as the Panthers failed to cross Seminary's 50 yard line. THE UNIVERP Seminary--6 Union--6 Walker L. E. Ruffin Jeffries L. T. Houston Canty L. G.

C., Nov. 6—The Howard University football team unequipped the hopes of the bitherton unbatten Wilberforce eleven (Wilberforce, Ohio) from the West for the championship among colored colleges. In the American League Park this afternoon, the Howard "Bisons" clinched the first game for the championship of the "Big Three." The Jone touchdown of the "Bisons" was the result of a series of line plunges, which brought the ball to the "Bulldogs" yard line. With rforce hold for three downs, McLean, stellar Howard, halfback, completed a pass to Long behind the goal line. Coles failed in the attempt for the exe "Wu Fang" Ward Stopped "Wu Fang" Ward, the "Red" Grange of Willerforce, sparkled only once or twice in the second quarter. After the he was silenced. The famous end running plays of Willerforce were of no avail, practically every one attempted resulted in decided losses.

Captain Long played the best game of his brilliant career at Howard. McLean, Brown Smith and Joe Carter more than proved their right to be considered as among the best backs Howard has ever had. Martin never failed to diagnose the opponents' plays. Dokes and "Bob" Miller, it appears, are sure to be selections for the All-American team of 1995.

SPANDORFER'S 703 CHURCH STREET "The House That Pargains Built" 541-549 Church Street Leaders meeting was to secure signatures to a petition to be forwarded to the members of the House and Senate from Virginia, asking that they use their influence to bring about the early liberation of Garvey. Mrs. DeMena explained that several such meetings are to be held in various sections of the country for a similar purpose. She will be the principal speaker at most of these, which will necessitate her touring the country. She declared that Garvey's release could have been secured some time ago, had the U. N. I. A. leaders consented to batter with a bunch of "cheap" Negro politicians for $15,000, upon the stipulation that after being free, Garvey would have to keep his mouth shut. Mrs. DeMena said the idea of procuring her leader's freedom upon such terms was revolting, and that the U. N. I. A. refused to enter into such a bargain. A number of local speakers were on the program and a quartet rendered excellent selections Practically everybody in the building signed the petition. Rhinelander Letters Read (Continued From Page One) Leonard K. Rhinelander—Mar e h 31, 1923. "She tried several lines of attack in her siege against the heart of this inexperienced boy. Finally, while he was in Arizona, she demanded that he come home and marry her secretly and then return to his school." Sister Married Negro "In September, 1923, Emily's marriage to a colored man came up in a discussion between Rhinelander and the Jones family. The Joneses told him Emily's union with a colored man was a great grievance to them—that for two years they had refused to admit that daughter to their home and that they had ostracised her completely for the marriage. They insisted they were of pure English ancestry on both sides." $275 VICTROLA And 25 Records $85 CASH This is a beautiful full-tone up- right Victrola owned by a refined white family, and is positively re- gious as brand new.

Shellenberger near the Sweet home and that he had eight patrolmen in the vicinity, three of whom were in plain clothes. They were there to prevent any breach of the peace and to protect Dr. Sweet's home. "I informed the men before we left the station that Dr. Sweet would be permitted to occupy his house, even if it took every man in the department to protect him." Automobile traffic was diverted from Garland avenue, and he ordered all citizens to keep moving, and said there were only a few groups of two or three persons. He said that just prior to the shooting he heard no shouting and did not see any armed men in the neighborhood. The witnesses wer given a severe cross-examination by Darrow.

There was no blanance of disorder and there was no demonstration when the verdict was announced. The crowd appeared to be stunned and before it could fully recover the freed Negro had been whisked from the room and the judge and solicitor were discussing commonplace details of the court in a tone calculated to prevent any sort of hysteria in the crowd.

Foreman Ellis, Mrs. Fratz Naylor For Unified Transportation PAGE SEVEN Reasons Why City Council's Ordinance, Unifying Bus and Trolley Service, Is a Good Thing For Norfolk and Why We Should Vote For It At the Referendum Election On Tuesday, November 17, 1925: 1—Insures busses that operate as part of the local transportation system and that give transfers all over the city. 2—Insures high class busses of which our citizens may justly feel proud, which carry an air of stability, security and dignity. Ordinance gives Council right to prescribe the size, character and type of motor vehicle, and Company is required to operate in accordance with the most approved methods, and by use of most approved means of surface transportation. 3—Places the operation of busses in the hands of a Company having financial responsibility and capable of rendering first class transportation. A Company which will lay out a transportation programme for the future, as well as take care of present requirements. Places on the shoulders of the Company the responsibility of rendering a transportation service that will build the Norfolk of tomorrow. The present bus service furnished by independent bus operators, many of whom own only one bus, is not an officialized service carrying a sufficient investment to protect against abandonment at any time that the driver may so will—nothing but a few inexpensive busses, dilapidated and worn, to serve as a guarantee that in time of storm, stress or cold, there will be service. Under the unified bus and trolley ordinance, Council retains right to require adequate and efficient service at reasonable rates. 4—Because busses operated by Company carry unlimited accident liability and not simply your portion of $2,000. 5—Tends to keep the street railway functioning, while present arrangement seeks to destroy the rail facilities. 6—Gives right to Council to extend routes and establish new routes. 7—Because Company does not acquire vested interest in streets and Council may alter, amend or repeal the ordinance at any time and with or without cause revoke any permit theretofore given Company, and if Company abandons any route Council may revoke all other permits or may grant permits to others to operate on the abandoned route; or city may itself operate busses on such route. 8—Because fares are always subject to regulation of the Council. School tickets on busses supplied at $2\frac{1}{2}$ cents same as on street cars. Present school fare on busses, 5 cents. 9—Busses will pay revenue of $2\frac{1}{2}$ per cent on earnings to the city.

WARN'S AGAINST HEAVY DEBTS ON THE CHURCHES Rev. R. H. Bowling Sees Danger To Spiritual Achievements of Church Harrassed By Creditors Using as a text the famous words in Revelation, "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches, Rev. Richard H. Bowling delved deep last Sunday night into the question, "What Is The Matter With Norfolk's Churches, Said he, "The Spirit's message to Norfolk's churches has application to churches facing similar problems everywhere. Let all church pastors, officers and leading members, therefore, hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. It is both a message of comprehension and of warning. behind church buildings. Hardly any city in the country is so blessed with beautiful church edifices built for and paid for by colored Christians. Better still, she has a clean and intelligent ministry. The ministerial scalawag is practically unknown in the average Norfolk pulpit. And do not forget that the credit belongs ultimately to the churches who have increasingly made demands for such a type of ministry. Also, let us be reminded that there prevails here an advanced type of interdenominational fellowship. The old fires of sotarian hate and will are either dead or dying. Norfolk's churches are recognizing each other as agencies for bringing in the kingdom regardless of denominational teets and beliefs. The Spirit says, too, that Norfolk is to be congratulated for the absence of class lines within her churches. No man of any class would be because of his class he bearded from any Norfolk church. There are no class or 'color' churches in colored Norfolk. Founding For Money "But all is not well with Norfolk's churches. The Spirit would have them warned as to their finances. A church's religion is not to gregged by the size of its offerings. But the giving and handling of its finances is an index of a church's condition and of its vision. A church's running expenses must be kept within its ability to gurgle. Harassing debt and the consequent perpetual hounding for money is fatal to a church. Improvements, programs, and salaries must be kept within reasonable limits. To add to a church's expense when creditors are going unpaid is both unbusinesslike and unChristian. Another warning: A church's running expense must not be allowed to crowd out the universal church's obligation to education, missions, and general charities. Too Many Churches "There is too much duplication of effort. The multiplication of churches adds to the running expenses of the city's spiritual enterprise unnecessarily, pulls down the attendance in all the churches, and uses energies in the secondary work of church financing which are needed for the work of kingdom building. The civic remedy is to discourage the startling of new churches where the need is not plainly urgent. We must learn to recognize shifts in population as depending removal of location of existing churches, not multiplication of churches. Population shifts (Continued on page 13.) HENRY ALLEN BOYD HERE IN BIG MEETING 400 New Hymnals Will Be Used For The First Time In Mammoth And Unique Services. Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, Ungine., of Nashville, Tenn., will be in this city Sunday, November 15.

Newbold Invites Leaders Of Both Races To Attend Meeting at Shaw University Dr. N. C. Newbold, Director Division of Negro Education for North Carolina, has sent out invitations to prominent white and colored leaders to be present at the State Conference of Negro Education to be held at Shaw University, Raleigh, November 16. However, the invitation to attend this conference is not confined to those persons who may receive a direct solicitation from Director Newbold; but includes any interested person who may read of the announcement in the public press, or obtain the information concerning the meeting from another source. In announcing the approaching Newbold says: "In North Carolina, for the past several years, there has been held an annual conference on Negro education. The State Department of Education has invited leaders of education, religion, industry and public welfare to attend these conferences. The list of those invited includes not only representatives of both the Negro and white races within the State, but also outstanding leaders of both races outside the State. We extend you a virtual invitation to attend a conference this year. It will be held at Shaw University, Raleigh, N.C. November 16, 1925, beginning at 11:00 a.m. Program For Conference "The conference this year will devote a considerable portion of its time to a discussion of teacher-training in institution's above high school; that is, minor schools, junior and standard "A" colleges. "A group of Negro leaders attending a conference in Raleigh September 28th, 1925, formulated problems; the 10th grade. For what type of teaching, if any, shall the Junior Colleges train? "2. Shall we recommend that the State of North Carolina issue no new certificates to teachers unless the applicants have completed four years of standard high school work and one year of professional training above the high school 3. Shall we recompend that no teacher will be issued North Carolina high school teacher's certificate except on credit for three years standard college work and the required amount of professional experience. 4. Shall we recommend that no teacher may raise a North Carolina teacher's certificate without credit for thirty hours college work? 5. Shall we recommend that the State Department use its influence with the school authorities in the local community to the end that these local authorities will see the wisdom of employing well trained teachers? "6. In formulating its report on these questions the committee is to keep in mind the fact that 67.2% of the Negro school children are in the first three grades. "Committees are now at work on these questions. They will report their findings to the conference for discussion November. "Another committee has been appointed to report on discussion on what may be termed Institutional Knowledge worthwhile cooperation among the higher institutions for Negroes in North Carolina. These reports and discussion in will, we believe, serve to promote and develop to a still higher degree the harmonious cooperation which now exists between the public and private institutions in this State We hope you can be present.

Negro insurance companies stand for (1) Protection, (2) Employment, (3) Investment, (4) Property Ownership, and (5) Racial Wealth.

Virginia farmers are being fitted by the Seats-Reckow Agricultural Foundation against place-fault in forecasts of an extremely cold winter ahead to be allowed by a reasonable summer in 1926. The winter may be extremely cold and the summer unavailable, but scientists have no means of telling it at this early winter. A week is the longest dip into the weather future. Neither is there reason for because that the winters in this season no longer so cold nor the summers so as formerly, according to the Foundation which gives weather bureau figures on point, running back three decades. The mean December-January February temperature over the decade 1855-1954 was 41.9 degrees, for the decade 1905-1914 was 40.6 degrees, for the decade 1915-1924 was 36.2 degrees in the total degree of 57 degrees.

One explanation of this is that memory recalls the excellent rather than the bad. Another is that the warmth has taken the edge of extreme weather. A snow- weather our forefathers would would roden under foot for days is shewled away before we give in the morning. Better heat- weather, makes us feel the low temperature less, and ice refrigerating gels and electric fans make the aerates of heat more endurable. While the weather is constantly damping from one year to another, climate changes are too grand to observe in the lifetime of Foundation states. Scientists measure that the climate is not no changes in some ten years, but in others the passing the final period, and probably will for another ten million.

Westermann Says Various Meanings of Native Language Difficult to Learn But Necessary. Hampton. Va.. Nov. 11--Recently at Ogden Hall an address of unusual value and interest to the audience was given by Dr. Diedrich H. Westermann, Professor of African Languages at the University of Berlin. He has translated into German, Booker T. Washington's autobiography, "Up From Slavery." In fact, according to the speaker, the names of Tuskegee and its founder are known to all African who are interested in Africa. Dr. Westermann laid great stress upon the necessity of the missionaries' learning the various African languages and said that it was impossible for them to win the confidence of the natives if they were able to speak only foreign languages. The various letters are used to learn words having three or four meanings depending upon the inflection or kind of "click" used. Realize Importance of African Culture It was of special interest to the Hampton student body to hear Dr. Westermann emphasize the fact that Germany and other nations now realize it to be of the utmost importance that the African culture should be retained and developed, and that the natives should be taught to be proud of their race and of what their own people can do. Dr. Westermann believes in using for the first three years of educative work the curricular of the various tribes, teaching foreign languages later, and using European culture only after the African has been developed. This development he hopes to see aided through the International Bureau of African Languages and Culture which will have its headquarters in London. Johnston County Fair A Success Prof. G. A.

What are you worth in the home? What are you worth in community enterprise? What are you worth in Christian character?

One year in the penitentiary was the sentence meted out to Harry Diggs, of Norfolk, in the Circuit Court of Norfolk County, Monday when he faced a jury in a charge of murder, growing out of the killing of Mr. Augustus Watts, a well-known farmer of Portsmouth and Hodgens Rerry, on the Suffolk boulevard last May.

Making Foods Attractive I would be fine if all women reared that making food attractive and tending and "different" does not necessarily mean making it more expensive. Older housekeepers, especially, say so often that suggestions for interesting new food combinations are all right for people who do not have to count the pennies, but that they cannot afford to eat plain, ordinary meals in their homes. None the less, I don't believe the family menu varied and attractive. Take the matter of mushrooms, which seem to be an especial offender. Four times within the past two weeks, I have heard women say, "As if I could afford to serve mushrooms!" As a matter of fact, around here mushrooms have been selling for 50 cents a pound, and because a few go a long way, half a pound is usually enough for a tough ordinary family, less expensive than a bunch of asparagus! To me, however, the chief value of mushrooms lies ordinary. SOUTH and WASHINGT NATION'S CAP of Mortimer Harris. The matter Co was referred to an auditor for the District of Columbia. PROF.

This building would afford a great need in the Nation's Capital for the gathering of national organizations.

A little, finely chopped added at the last minute to creamed potatoes, makes all the difference between "leftover" and pipient new dish. Another valuable seasoning, also highly decorative, little used in many homes is paprika, a 10 cent can of which will last a year or so. Although many people seem to think that this spice is very "hot" it is, in reality, extremely mild.

"HOME INTEREST DAY" One of the best services ever held in the First Baptist Church of Franklin was that of "The Home Interest Day." Sunday, the pastor, Rev. Allen, had been out of the city for two weeks conducting a revival for the First Baptist Church of Lochburg, and while there he wrote an official letter to the members of the First Baptist with a "Home Interest" tone, requesting each family to turn out Sunday, the Sth, and sit together to hear a special sermon pointing to the direct interest of the home. "Jesus calls man from the trees to his home," was the theme taking from Lake 19:5. Zacchaeus the scyrmace tree furnished the background for one of the most profound, practical and inspiring sermons. The pastor said, "Don't be afraid that you will wear your religion out by using all of the time and in everything. That is what is intended, for I want that we learn to use religion to an advantage, in trouble, embarrassment mistakes, sickness, weakness and death. "It is the plan and purpose of Jesus that we have health, money, property, education, friends, peace, happiness and life as a result of practicing the moral ethics in his teachings. "Too many people want to see Jesus away from home among the ages, but Jesus wants to go to the moment life is started, attitudes and dispositions and destinies."

Ashburn are destined to be the dawn of a new day in Negro History of Virginia and adjacent States. They contain a message for our people not surpassed by anybody we ever heard speak. He can easily entertain an audience two hours or more, and receive censure from illiterate or intelligent for not speaking hours longer. The Lectures are like a moving picture show, that depict life in action characterized in many different ways, that nobody seems to have thought of but Dr. Ashburn Any church will do credit and benefit to itself by organizing a campaign to give him a crowded house, as he no longer has to speak to a few people. The Lectures are racial, patriotic, humorous, intelligent, interesting, full of movement and variety of thought and logic, the audience is kept busy all the time, the minute is spent either in serious attention, questioning, criticism, tearful emotion or enraptured laughter—even children enjoy every word of it. WARN'S AGAINST CHURCH DEBTS (Continued on Page Eight) do not mean necessarily, more people and therefore the need for more churches, but possibly just a changing order. For example, a number of former residence lanes in downtown Norfolk are now given over to business. The 'invasion' of a few downtown front streets by colored people, therefore, does not mean that the number of church-goers has doubled. Failure of Revival "As we our spirit, objectives, the Spirituals. What plans are being projected for teaching the unchurbed population other than the multinplying of church organization? What are we devising to take the place of the old fashioned revival effort which now fails ordinarily to draw the unreached. We need an annual house canvassing city-wide special services all the churches. We need special services for invited groups, not that they may help us in a rally service, but that we may help them with the gospel message and our show of fellowship with no mercenary ends in view, more factory, sales or street evangelicals, a part of leading passions and leading church members both men and women. George W. Truett "Says the Spirit, What plan s have we for enlisting missionary and ministerial recruits?

Mr. Elder Pender, one of our oldest patrons, met us on the street, Saturday, and asked: "Dr. is that a real Negro paper?" He was shown one, he bought it, and asked that it be delivered every Saturday. And many young girls and boys do this same thing every Saturday. Last Saturday a group of five girls stopped and assaulted us right on a street and robbed us of five cents. They laughed and threw 35 right into my hands. Let next Saturday come, please, and I shall have 50 copies right in my hands or arms. Mr. Jaco Johnson, son of Rev. Mr. J. H. Johnson, and a student at Hampton Institute, spent the week-end with his parents at the Nanceon Collegiate School. Mr. and Mrs. J. C.

Small debts are more easily paid that only two missionaries represent them on foreign fields? that less that a dozen first rate ministers, (i. e. intellectually qualified ministers) have gone out from them during at least thirty years? Such an important business as recruiting for leadership in the church of Jesus cannot be left to chance missions and occasional dreams. If higher education Trustee Truett is induced, not dreamed, into the ministry, why not others? His story reads: the deacon was urging in open meeting that I decide at once for the ministry. I protested. I had done so before when the deacon and others mentioned the same matter to me privately * * * The meeting in the little village church that Saturday grew tense with emotion. Prayers were answered with emotion. Finally it was moved that the church voice its conviction that God had called George W. Truett to the ministry. * * * And so they did. I was thrown into the stream, and just had to swim. * Is church financing more important than discovery of new training of the like this flaming evangel of Dallas, Texas? "Busy or Lazy?" "What plans, other than routine preaching, have we for rooting out the evil tendencies in our city's life? To mention just one, there is the persistent immorality among grammar and high school groups. And to our shame, our ministers are too busy for the school principals to get a list of worthwhile speakers to talk to the better things about religion and the good things of life, doing what, while dozens of boys and girls each year lost character and self respect! Norfolk's churches need to insist that the ministry be freed from its 'busy'ness and its laziness, and haste to the work of spiritual redemption." NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE than large ones.

I have just been invited to attend the Woman's Auxiliary of the P. E. Mark's Mark, in Tampa, in home of some of the Mrs. Robert Willingham, former Washington and Tynes街址. A Turkey Dinner—thursday evening, November 26 1925. Shall you be there? The occasion is for the benefit of the St Mark's P. E. Mission. IN OUR HOMES Now, here is where I must be more careful, because our children may grow up to be presidents—some day. In this day, it may be kindly said: "The hand that rocks the cradle may be turning t the world upside down." This is very evidenced by a casual peep into our uncarefully and carelessly looked-after homes. Here we can find thousands of children having only a one-piece' suit for their daily wear. No mothers there to keep them from falling into a turt of soap and water—some neither Saturday nights nor Sundays. But what have I to do with it? Don't get angry for father and mother are somewhere. Do you know of an unclearly home? Where? We have some of the best built homes; some of the cleanest kept homes; and some of the best pair-for homes; homes in which not even an insurance agent will enter without pulling off his hat before offering to be polite and respectful. If you wish to, you may believe that all our families keep fit homes for an officer to enter. I admit that this is none of my business, but I happen to think of them as I pass by. Now, here is where I may get myself in trouble. Notice, that I have said but little of our fathers and mothers, and what they ought to do with the making of their children. I tried not to make them mad. Here, we come in contact with another, double group—f or teachers and schools are a funny group. A Poorly educated child said above, you may think that I am a member of all grades and classes I have mentioned. Just think on. We ought to first, think whether our teachers are properly prepared as well as our schoolhouses, children or meny. Are they teaching for money, or to develop the children, or for both? Who rules your schoolhouse? You, the children, or parents? Neighborhood talk or not? I am not talking to you, but to you, the children and children to leave another school and go to yours? Why not look after the great number that float about the streets and stand on the corners. I have further talk with you lester, if permitted. IN OUR CHURCHES It does not cost anything to put your church into this column. But you do not send them in? Rev. W. E. Brinkley is pastor of the First Baptist Church, Pleasant Hill and a good one is he. Sunday, they had a fine Sunday school. Class No. 1, won the banner. At 3 o'clock the pastor preached a splendid sermon. The pew-rally began at once. It seems that this church has divided itself into political parties—Republican and democratic. These two parties vied with each other as to which could raise the largest amount to MARGARET MORRIS A few pennies may save your life! YOU are exposed to tuberculosis germs every day. The only sure defense against tuberculosis is to stamp out the dread disease entirely. It can be done. Today only one person dies from tuberculosis where two died before. The death rate from consumption has been cut in half by the organized warfare carried on by the tuberculosis crusade. This organized warfare to stamp out this dread disease is financed by the sale of Christmas Seals. Buy Christmas Seals. Buy as many as you can. They cost but a penny apiece—but your dollars, added to other dollars, will save many lives and protect you and your family from the spread of tuberculosis. THE NATIONAL, STATE, AND LOCAL TUBERCULOSIS ASSOCIATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES pay on the $1,800 set of pews. The Republicans won by raising $201.10 against the democrats, $197.30.

What do you know about Red Russia? Is not the answer "Nothing"? You have never been there and you can have but little understanding or interest in people so different from yourself. The Russian immigrants who have amassed fortunes over here have done you no service and those who have amassed no fortunes have sought to take your jobs by offering service for lower pay, but your employers stood by you. Pay no attention to the crimson hand of Russia. What do you know about the Labor Unions over here? Again the answer is "Nothing." You have never been allowed to join the unions of importance, and, therefore, you can know very little. You do know that unions have displaced you wherever they could and have exploited wherever there was a chance. You know these things and you know them well. You also know that you have always been retained in your jobs when your service was honest and capable, notwithstanding the protest of the unions. Pay no attention to plea of the agitators. You know very little about them. They make a living out of those who listen to them. Knowledge Is Power! You know the great financial kings of this country and they know you. They believe in you and you have believed in them. There is where the power of knowledge comes in. Use your knowledge of your employer's desires and you will become powerful. Your employers do not approve of Red Russia and Socialistic labor agitators, because both have stirred up strife, caused bloodshed and created dissension and poverty. Your employers want peace, happiness and plenty for the whole nation, and this includes you. You know it and the power to realize it is in your own hand.

But their churches come in for the making of the righteous. And they have no glorious time of it. The few faithful, righteous are standing at the gates, crying: "Why is it that the people don't go to church more? The many say: the ministers and deacons do nothing but call for money—if it doesn't take money to run a church and a family. A man was heard to say while standing on the ground: 'I am a Sunday morning: the haven of a church within fifteen years.' Who gives him any trouble for it? Another one said that if all the people happened to get enough religion to go one Sunday, they should have to stand on the outside and peep in. How is it, when a circus, fair, or a minstrel show come to town, most everybody finds some where to stand when the occasion usets us? And when the occasion stands and stands where we elect—even on the others' toes? Don't be so hard on us. We are still human beings. The object of our efforts are to serve before we are lost in sin.

The Thanksgiving turkey has much to be thankful for, as being the most honored bird among us. Blood will tell, and does. Madame Lillian Evans Tibbs of Washington, who has broken into grand opera in Europe as "Madame Evanti," is the daughter of the late Bruce Evans, one of the first graduates of Howard University and the Principal of the Armstrong Manual Training School which he developed into a National asset for the race. Bruce Evans was a fine gentleman and a great educator. His daughter illustrates in her way the inheritance in culture which her parents bequeathed her. We can't have too many educated mothers and fathers to give us educated sons and daughters. William Clarence Matthews of Massachusetts may be regarded as the biggest thing in Afro-American politics, as far as influence with the Coolidge Administration is concerned. He lives in the President's State. He had charge of the Afro-American end of the campaign to elect President Coolidge. He is a Harvard man and a lawyer. He is, it appears on the face of it, one of the elect, whether white or black, and to clinch matters he was born in Virginia, nurtured at the breast of the Mother of Presidents. Very good. What then? Mr. Matthews has been appointed a special assistant to the Attorney-General and sent West on a first assignment. Are we to understand that no Afro-American is to receive a higher appointment from the President than Mr. Matthews has received from the Attorney-General? The Coal Strike No sufficient excuse has ever been given for the hard coal strike which now has the country gripped. Hard coal has gone to $20 a ton in the New York district, and the price of substitutes has gone tumbling after. The mine owners have just given out an advertisement showing that in 1924 the average earnings of 18,957 contract miners was $2,347.70 and the average working hours per day were 6% hours. The highest group of miners received $14.33 per day and the lowest $8.25. The miners struck for a ten per cent increase for the contract miners and $1 per day for the day men. How long will the country allow 20,000 mine owners and workers to tie up the hard coal industry, crippling production and endangering the health of millions of householders? It is a very serious question, and it has got to be answered. It Costs Big Money to Fight For Justice The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has several law suits on its hands which require big money to carry them to a finish. These law suits affect the citizen rights of the race and should be fought to a finish. The Association asks for a fund of $50,000 to carry on its work in the courts. That is not much money to expect or ask of 12,000,000 people whose constitutional rights are in controversy, and whose rights will suffer much if the suits at law now pending and to be prosecuted are not properly defended. It is an awful thing when ten people can be indicted for murder and placed in jeopardy of their lives for shooting to kill into a mob striving to drive a citizen out of his home. These ten people were shooting to protect the home of Dr. Sweet in Detroit from the attack of a white mob determined to drive the doctor from his home because they objected to his buying a home in their section. Instead of arresting the law breakers the police went after the defenders of the law and the grand jury indicted the defenders of the law and let the violaters of the law go free. What encouragement has a citizen to defend his life and property from violence when the law can be jerrymandered in that way to his further hurt and injury when he does it. He is a coward and a sneak who hesitates to defend his life and property as often as these are placed in jeopardy by mobocrats, and that justice is an outrage which would indict and prosecute him for doing. Every white citizen understands the matter in this way, and every colored citizen should understand it in this way. The Editorial Page of law of self-defense cannot be construed in one way for the white man and in another way for the black man without destroying entirely the principle of self-defense. That should be plain enough for every one to see. The Association, in defending the case of Dr. Sweet and his neighbors at Detroit were fortunate in securing the services of Clarence Darrow, the famous Chicago criminal lawyer, and Arthur Garfield Hayes, a distinguished New York lawyer, to help their own lawyers. That is, as it should be. We should have the best legal talent possible to secure in defense and appeal of our law causes to assist our own lawyers. It goes far with the public and the courts to have it so, and it is the approved way with those who have difficult litigation in law. But it costs big money to secure such special legal service. We have got to learn and not forget that fact. What then? The Association for the Advancement of Colored People needs $50,000 in its legal fight against residential segregation. Let the readers of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE who can afford it send the Association a check to help out. Send the check to J. E. Spingarn, treasurer, 69 Fifth Avenue, New York. It is an obligation upon every one who can afford it to do so. The Labor Congress And The Red Menace The much heralded American Negro Labor Congress has come and gone in Chicago. There were some forty delegates in attendance and many who were not delegates, some sort of pilots standing by to see that the Congress did not drift far away from the purpose for which it was worked up. What was that purpose? Although it was hotly disclaimed while the work of creating delegates was in full swing the purpose of the Congress was to create a Negro Labor Association committed to the principles of the Communist International, against which our government and the governments of Europe have set their faces as a flint, because the purpose is to overthrow existing governments and industrial systems and establish the system of the Russian Soviet—the rule of the people, with authority centralized and labor in common with the products of labor the property of all, subject to the dictatorship of bloodless Lenin or Trotzy, with a vast army of parasites to buttress and make effective his dictatorship. Terms mean little unless we judge them by their fruits. Communism as it has been worked out in Europe has been the tyranny of labor or the common people, with ignorance and brutality as the instruments of government. There were only forty delegates present at the Labor Congress in Chicago, we are told, and most of them were none too radical. We are led to believe by the reports that the Congress fell flat in its purpose to proselyte the Afro-American into the Communistic death trap. That is not likely to happen in the long or short run, simply because our group are, for the most part, conservative at heart and not given to running after unknown isms, even when those isms are shown to be of more advantage to them than those they have been fed upon from their youth. Because of this disposition they are immune largely from radicalism of any sort from without and conservatism of any sort from within. They just drift with the tide, follow the crowd, and take what comes for better or for worse. They may outgrow it, but they need not if it will drag them into conflict with Government of which they are citizens and with the Christian philosophy which they have accepted for spiritual guide but which they too often follow only when it serves their selfish purpose to do so. We must not allow anything to drive us out of our American citizenship and our membership in the Christian Church. These are the best to be found anywhere, and we should labor to get the most and not the least out of both, as other race groups do, and preserver and grow strong as we do so. The race needs labor organization and plenty of it, but it needs the right and not the left sort, the sort which will help and not hinder it in seeking an equal chance with us as wage-earners. North Carolina; Not Southern The jury at Asheville that acquitted the colored man charged with criminally assaulting a white woman is not typically Southern. It is just North Carolinian. In any other state in the South, Virginia included the Negro would not have had a ghost of a chance after the white woman "positively identified" him, as was done at Asheville. In Georgia, Mississippi or Texas he never would have gotten a trial. Waverly is Virginia's most recent testimony that he would have been sacrificed upon the altar of Southern chivalry. There are now five divisions to the Norfolk Journal and Guide United States; North, East, South, West and North Carolina. Geographically North Carolina is in the South, otherwise it is in a distinct class to itself. North Carolina has discovered that ignorance is a remedy for nothing, and has set about to educate all of its citizens, thoroughly and efficiently. Both of the Negroes charged with rape at Asheville came from South Carolina, where educational opportunities for Negroes are relatively meager. North Carolina gave both of them a fair trial despite the desperate efforts of the mob to prevent them from having any trial whatsoever. One was convicted and will pay with his life for the crime. The other one was returned to South Carolina, from whence he came, under heavy guard. North Carolina has not only proved that lynching can be prevented if such is the desire of the rulers of the states, and that a Negro charged with a serious crime can be given a fair trial in the community in which the crime is alleged to have been committed, and if found guilty acquitted and protected, but the Old North State has found a way to rebuke community hystoria and blood lust which always follows an alleged criminal attack of the kind Asheville had to deal with. Someone attacked a woman. It may have been the frail illiterate seventeen year old boy from South Carolina, who is now awaiting death in the electric chair for the crime, or it may have been a white man disguised as a Negro, like the bank robber that was shot in Baltimore the other day. The State cheated the mob out of the "good lynching" one of the newspaper correspondent said the Negro population of Asheville needed and immediately the lust for the blood of a Negro became epidemic. "Criminal attacks" began to occur with daily frequency, just as if the entire Negro population of Asheville had suddenly become bestially mad. One lady came upon her "attacker" calmly making some purchases in a five and ten cent store. She had him arrested and "positively identified" him. She stuek to her man to the last, but a jury of twelve white men, listened to the evidence calmly deliberated upon it, and acquitted the man. So doing they put a stop to female mob hysteria and judicial lynching temporarily at least. Spirit of the Press For Mississippi, et Al From Collier's Weekly. Recently there was a most brutal murder in Cincinnati, committed by a Negro. The victim was a fourteen-year-old white girl. The murderer was captured, tried and sentenced to pay the extreme penalty—within two weeks from the date of the crime. There was no mob, nor was there any agitation for one. He was captured by a Negro policeman This incident serves to show that there ure law-abiding colored people, eager to have felons apprehended and anxious to help. That colored policeman of Cincinnati, instead of the colored murderer, should stand for the Negro race. A Significant Verdict From Booneake Times. The attention of that part of the Northern press which is prone to lament the alleged inability of the Negro to get justice in the South is respectfully directed to the action of an Asheville jury in acquitting a young Negro charged with the gravest crime that a member of his race can commit in the cases of Southern white men. A succession of recent attacks on white women by Negroes had aroused the Asheville public to a state of high indignation. Yet despite the fact that he was positively identified by the woman in the case as her assailant, the Negro's denial of guilt, supported by evidence tending to prove an alibi and reinforced by testimony as to his good character, was accepted by the Asheville jury and a verdict of acquittal was rendered. In view of the public feeling that had been aroused in the city over the case, the authorities wisely decided not to run any risk of a mob attempting to take matters into its own hands and sent the Negro by automobile under armed escort across the State line into South Carolina. There will be feeling in Asheville over the verdict, of course. This is entirely natural, in view of recent occurrences. But the verdict whether right or wrong, proves the willingness of the white men of the South to do justice by the black man and to stand between him and his accusers when a grave accusation is falsely lodged against him. The previous circumspect life of the defendant was in his favor in his hour of dire need and caused the jurors to weigh carefully the evidence in his behalf, with the result that he was given the benefit of the doubt and set free even though the charge against was supported by the word of the woman herself. The verdict stands as a refutation of the charge that is sometimes falsely made that the life of a Negro accused of a crime against white womanhood isn't worth a continental in a Southern community. Southern justice toward Negroes, as administered by Southern white men, was exonerated by the vote of the jury that acquitted Preston Neely in an Asheville court room yesterday. Saturday, November 14, 1925 Cullen Acclaimed Among the Best of Contemporary Poets COLOR, by Conniee P. Cullen, Harper and Brothers, 49 East 33rd Street, New York City. Copies may be obtained direct from the publishers. Although Color, just published by Harpers, is Contee Cullen's first volume of verse, this youthful poet is so well known to poetry lovers, that critics were clamoring for review copies long before the book issued from the press. Readers of Harper's Magazine, The American Mercury, Century, The Nation, etc., are familiar with Mr. Cullen's verse, and he has been often before the public as the winner of poetry prizes. COUNTEE CULLEN While at DeWitt-Clinton High School, Mr. Cullen was awarded first prize in a contest conducted by the Federation of Women's Clubs with his poem, "I Have a Rendezvous With Life." He has twice won the second prize in the contest held by the Poetry Society of America. Recently, he was awarded the Amy Spingarn prize for poetry in the contest conducted by The Crisis. Only several days ago, the Association the news that he has been awarded the J. prize. prize. Countee Cullen graduated from New York University last June, receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts. He was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in March. Now, he is at Harvard, working for a Master's Degree. It was in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Harvard, that an interviewer for The Christian Science Monitor found the twenty-two year poet last week. She wrote of him in a two column account of her talk with him: Countee Cullen graduated from New York University last June, receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts. He was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in March. Now, he is at Harvard, working for a Master's Degree. It was in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Harvard, that an interviewer for The Christian Science Monitor found the twenty-two year poet last week. She wrote of him in a two column account of her talk with him: "Mr. Cullen's father is a clergyman. There clings about the son the ineffable benediction of a gentle background, with kindness and sympathy and courage for its embellishment." Mr. Cullen told The Christian Monitor reporter that after he finishes his graduate work at Harvard, he will possibly teach. "Perhaps it is not what I would wish most," he said, "but it enable me to go on writing, which I must. My race has things to say which will help the others to understand us. You will know that we who have been given voices must not remain apart from our obligation. It is not for us to mourn prejudice, but to help to fashion the earnest which will eventually overcome it." Many of the poems, of Color are, to use his own phrase, expressions which will etch the truths of our race more distinctly than simpler propaganda can." Take, for instance, this poem: FOR A LADY I KNOW She even thinks that up in heaven Her class lies late and snorers, While poor black cherubs rise at seven To do celestial chores. And his poem: HARSH WORLD THAT LASHEST ME (For Walter White) "Mr. Cullen's father is a clergyman. There clings about the son the ineffable benediction of a gentle background, with kindness and sympathy and courage for its embellishment." Mr. Cullen told The Christian Monitor reporter that after he finishes his graduate work at Harvard, he will possibly teach.

You will know that we who have been given voices must not remain apart from our obligation. It is not for us to mourn prejudice, but to help to fashion the earnest which will eventually overcome it." eventually of our poems, of Color are, to use his own phrase, expressions which will etch the truths of our race more distinctly than simpler propaganda can." Harsh World that lashest me each day, Dub me not cowardly because I seem to find no sudden way To throttle you or clip your claws. Whereof my body bears the scar; Although my feet are on the ground, Doubt not my eyes are on a star. No force compels me to the wound You cannot keep me captive, World, Entramelled, chained, split on, and spurned. More free than all your flags unfurled. I give my body to be burned, I mount my cross because I will, I drink the hemlock which you give. For wine which you withhold—and still. Because I will not die, I live. I live because an ember in Me smoulders to regain its fire, Because what is and what has been Not yet have conquered my desire. I live to prove the graping elod Is surely more than simple dust; I live to see the breath of God Beautify the coral crust. But when I will, World, I can go, Though triple bronze should wait me sound. Slip past your guard as swift as snow. Translated without pain or sound. Within myself is lodged the key To that vast room of couches laid For those too proud to live and see Their dreams of light celipied in shade. On the jacket of Color, Carl Van Vechten says: "One of the best of Negro writers, Countee Cullen is the youngest of them all. He was barely twenty-one when The Shrond of Color (published in the November, 1924, issue of American Mercury) created a sensation analogous to that created by the appearance of Edna St. Vincent Millay's Renascence in 1912, lifting its author at once to a position in the front rank of contemporary poets, white or black * * *" Walter White says: "Countee Cullen belongs to that company of lyricists of which A. E. Houseman and Edna St. Vincent Millay are the bright stars * * * . His verse has an emotional depth which is extraordinary in one of Mr. Cullen's years. He etches his emotions and pictures with acid clearness, while underneath lies a genuine and sympathetic understanding of the joys and sorrows of life itself." If your local bookseller does not have Color in stock, you can order it direct from the publisher, Harper and Brothers, 49 East 33rd Street, New York City. On the jacket of Color, Carr Van Peltem.

He was barely twenty-one when The Shroud of Color (published in the November, 1924, issue of American Mercury) created a sensation analogous to that created by the appearance of Edna St. Vincent Millay's Renascence in 1912, lifting its author at once to a position in the front rank of contemporary poets, white or black * * " Walter White says: "Countee Cullen belongs to that company of lyricists of which A. E. Houseman and Edna St. Vincent Millay are the bright stars * * * . His verse has an emotional depth which is extraordinary in one of Mr. Cullen's years. He etches his emotions and pictures with acid clearness, while underneath lies a genuine and sympathetic understanding of the joys and sorrows of life itself."

Press Comment on Pullman Porters' Union on the "B and O" plan but it even violates the agreements entered into by its own tools. And this is not strange. From The Daily Worker. An effort is now being made to unionize the slaves of the Pullman Sleeping Car Company, who make the bunks, and in other ways attend to the discomfort of those who are obliged to perform acrobatic feats in their involuntary contributions to the estate of George Pullman, the chief beneficiary of which is former Governor Lowden of Illinois. No other set of slaves are more in need of organization than the Pullman porters. The company has a "benevolent" organization Only when the workers have powers will the bosses listen to them or abide by their agreements. Before a Pullman porter is considered entitled to his meager monthly salary of something like $65.00, he must have covered 11,000 miles in that month. He is not paid for work done in preparing sleepers before starting time. There are many grievances which an organized body would force the com- pany to redress. Singly the porters are helpless and entirely at the mercy of the employers. There is one pifflah the porters must avoid. It is depending on the "public" for salvation. A letter sent out by Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood of Pullman Porters, expresses the hope that when the "public" is advised of the inhuman conditions under which the porters work, that it will rise in its wrath and smite the company. This is dangerous nonsense. The porters must depend on their own collective strength, in cooperation with all other categories of railroad workers and with the workers in general. Only in unity with their own class can they find strength. This "public" bunk must be spurned. Bad Advice From Miami (Fil.) Herald. There is a peculiarly despicable Negro publication that is being circulated from hand to hand among the colored population of the South. It does not circulate publicly and would probably be refused access to the mails if application wore made to admit it as a regular publication. One of its recent displays of bad judgment is to advocate a union among Pullman car porters, in order that they may receive better recognition and be placed in line to become conductors. As the source of this advice is under suspicion, it would be a very bad thing for the intelligent colored men who are Pullman porters to place themselves in the position advised by this obscure but dangerous publication Colored men of standing long ago learned that when they attended strictly to their business, became thrifty and frugal, they had no better friends than the white people of this country, and especially of the South. The best of them will think long before they will accept the advice given by this pernicious publication and array themselves against their best and most helpful friends. The course marked out would be certain to destroy the standing of thousands of very worthy colored men, and in uprooting that they would destroy the friendships they have built up throughout the country by years of fine service. If any colored Pullman porters coming into this city have been approached to join the proposed movement, The Herald, which has always attempted to help and befriend the colored people of this section, earnestly advises them to keep out of an association that cannot but make their condition much worse, instead of better. Not All Such Politics Confined To Virginia From Raleigh (N. C.) Evening Times. The NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE, which is beyond perad- venture the best-edited Negro newspaper we ever ran an eye over, is discussing Democratic politics in Virginia—discussing it calmly, dispassionately and with a perception which it could be wished some of the white editors of Virginia and other states —North Carolina's Democratic politics, for instance, is very like the Old Dominion's—had or would utilize. Says the JOURNAL AND GUIDE, after quoting a statement attributed to Democratic candidate for Governor, Byrd in which he charges the Republicans with trying to enfranchise the 700,000 Negroes of Virginia: The most noticeable thing about the incident is that the Democratic party does not seem able to carry thru a campaign without appealing to some kind of race or class prejudice. If it were possible to deprive the Democrat-party in Virginia, or in the whole South for that matter, of the race it would not have a single vote-getting appeal with which to approach the sparse electorate that controls this section of the country. In Virginia the Democratic party has no platform. It candidate for Governor, nominated in a primary, is the platform. The party stands upon him. He stands upon race issue. There are 700,000 Negroes in Virginia and the most important task of the Democratic party is to keep them so that they will not be forced to meet certain economic qualifications, and to keep them present, so that they will not be forced to meet certain educational qualifications. total quorum. There are 6,191,170 white people in Virginia according to the census of 1980. Mr. Byrd was nominated for Governor by the votes of 107,000 people. As the total vote of the Democratic party is around 175,000 he will be elected Governor by the express will of, approximately one white citizen out of, every one thousand of the State. Such a state of affairs exists partly because of the Democratic party which has governed Virginia for the past fifty years, failed to provide adequate economic opportunities for the citizens of the State, and partly because the Democratic party deception, fraud, intimidation hunguggery to keep the 700,000 Negro citizens of the State down at the expense of the political liberties, and the education and economic assessment of the white citizens of the State; it being, an inexorable law of even that the whites cannot stay down without staying down By C. E. ARMSTRONG Business Location The preceding article dealt with the finances of the enterprise, this article will deal with the business home. This would be the next important step; finding a suitable location, whether contemplated business be manufacturing, easy access to railroads and shipping centers where raw materials entering into the making and the finished product itself can be transported with a minimum amount of handling at the least cost. This is very advantageous both to the prospective customer when it is borne in mind that the finished product is usually shipped to customers F. O. D., in other words the business pays the freight on incoming raw material, while the customer pays the freight on outgoing finished products. After the proper location has been acquired, the management then is faced with the problem of whether to buy the location or lease it; the final decision of course will depend on several factors, but a newly organized enterprise should be as much of its capital in local condition, with this thought in mind. I am in favor of leaving for the first few years as against buying; the same conditions are applicable to a retail organization in the main; only in this particular, buying takes the place of manufacturing; in many large retail organizations the products sold are manufactured by the company themselves or companies closely affiliated with them, but the average small organization, say with a capital of $50,000, should not attempt to manufacture but concentrate on selling, because the profit to be made from quantity discount would be greater than the profit derived from an attempt in the field of manufacturing; in many retail organizations have lost large sums of money in their attempts in the field unmindful of the fact that their chief function in the economic scheme of things in distribution. Entrance in outside or sidewalk should only be entered into in case of extreme emergency, such as the chain stores and large mail order houses were forced to do after it was found that they could not get the proper service from manufacturing. In these instances, where sales are running into the millions annually, the ends justify the means. with them. That is poisoning ginia. A black man, beloved, writes that about your and our kind of white folks; but we find little in it that we cannot heartily subscribe to; nor do we feel that any reasonable person can raise a valid objection. Its freaks does not impair the truth retained. If you are minded to do a statement that it is "an insurable law that the white can keep the blacks down without staying down with them" and some white tenant farmer in some of crop lien and overduection to show you where their lot is preferable to that their colored neighbors.
