Almond Citizens, Led By Prominent Lawyer And Newspapers Move To Reopen Case of Susie Boyd.
EDITION LAID BEFORE THE TRIAL JUDGE
(special to the Journal and Guide)
Richmond, Ma., June 23—T h e m o n s of this city, white and colo r are making every effort to that the 30-year penitentiary once recently imposed upon the Boyd upon her plea of guillotine three forgery counts in the sentiments Court shall not stand. The leaders in this movement are W. Oppenhimer, a prominent lawer, T. L. Presston, president of the bank on which the man is alleged to have forged checks and the Times-Dispatch. Mr. Oppenhimer has laid before W. Kirk of the Hustings out a petition asking for a renaming of the case. In this rehearsal he is ably supported by Mr. Rehman and the Times-Dispatch. Mr. Oppenhimer brought out in petition that the woman is the support of her 6-months old child and that it is the first time she has arrested for any offense. He asks that the case be reheated and the woman allowed to not guilty before a jury and the sentence be suspended. The petition asserts that the checks upon which the seniors of ten years each were imputed for the sums of $12, $4 and $8 and that the aggregate amount of all the checks, 22 number, which the accused man was alleged to have was $183.
considerable discussion arose in a passage of the petition said that "the judge of the case asked if she had a lawyer to help her and she told him she had a lawyer, as she did not Mr. Oppenhimer." Mathews and Commons Attorney Satterfield both said that the question was asked that the woman mentioned the case of a lawyer. Another incident arose when Preston spoke of the woman "in ignorant colored woman." Mathews said: "She is not ignorant colored woman. For it is one of the most subtle of stealing." Mr. Preston amended his statement to the that she was ignorant of the procedure.
Supporting Grounds
the following grounds in support of the motions were mentioned in the petition:
1. That the accused is an ignorant colored woman; that she always worked as a domestic servant; that she is utterly uninterested with courts and criminal matters; that this is the first she has ever been arrested convicted of any offense, and that she is the sole support of her infant 6 months of age.
2. That on June 7 the accused, a letter to Mr. 'Lee Man', childhood name by which H. W. McCallimer, an attorney, was owned by the members of his family and the name by which he accused, a family servant knew him informing him that she was ill, that she had worked for number of his family and asking him to get her out, and also him who she was and what he the conditions and circumstances. The said letter is here linked as part hereof.
The said letter was received by Oppenheimer on the following Tuesday, June 8, and at a clock on that day he came to the accused at the city jail. He accused then told him that he had been arrested on Satur- while on her way to work that she had been charged for forgiving several checks on A. V. Horton, a lady whom she had worked, but that the accused, was innocent.
Some Confusion
The accused further told Mr. Oppenheimer that her case would (Continued on Page Nine)

OLD NEWSPAPER GIVES INSIGHT ON CITY'S HISTORY
30-Year Old Copy Of "The Recorder," Comes To Light Bringing Recollections Of Days And Men Long Passed
The voice of the generation just passed, the remnants of which, though in the evening of life, are here still carrying on, came quietly but strikingly out of a past of 30 years to the Journal and Guide office this week in the form of an ancient copy of "The Recorder," of the date of Saturday, 1596, published in York, at 287 Queen Street. "The Recorder" was a four-page seven column weekly and though its motto states: "D devoted to the interests of all the people," it was a publication edited by Negroes, published by Negroes and chronicling the happenings of interest to the Negro race.
When one reads this issue of "The Recorder," one immediately becomes convinced that national politics was a thing of the moment in Norfolk among colored people in the '90s and the paper was uncompromisingly Republican, one article taking up nearly the entire front page and telling of the dedication of the new Masonic Temple on Queen street (now the Second Prescinct Police Station), an event that took place on October 12, 1896 and giving a history of Masonry, while the in-between articles are mostly a boost for the William McKinley-Garret A. Hobart Republican presidential ticket, with some personal mentions added to make an "all-round newspaper."
the staff of "The Recorder"—some of whom have crossed the Great Divide—and some of whom are here yet seeing that the present generation does not monopolize the hemisphere, consisted of William M. Reid, president; William M. Thorood, vice president; J. C. Asbury, secretary; James *P. Carter, treasurer; Matt N. Lewis, managing editor and W. H. C. Brown, associated editor. Mr. Reid who became a successful lawyer, of Portsmouth, has passed on. William (Bill) Thorood, yet amongst the living and the prominent citizen of Norfolk. J. C. Asbury is numbered among the countless of the dead, and so is present well-known family of Carters. Matt N. Lewis is still editing, but is at present managing editor, editor-in-chief, associate editor and publisher of the Newport News Star, while W. H. C. Brown set himself upon a surer foundation than newspapering and is now a prominent business man and banker, of Newport News, Norfolk and elsewhere.
An Enterprising Sheet
"The Recorder" was an enterprising sheet. Not only did it cover Norfolk "like the morning dew," judging from its advertisements and personal mentions, but it also reached over to Portsmouth and out to Suffolk and Richmond, touching some intervening points such as Bower's Hill, Chuacutch and even carryin' a New York col-
The front page feature telling of the dedication of the Masonic Temple and giving the speech of R. A. Tucker on the history of Masonry in this city is illustrated with the portraits of 12 prominent Masons, who were among the best known citizens of the city and the progenitors of well-known page 10.

The first case heard by him was a damage suit brought by Evelyn Eyre against Rose Brothers Company for damages growing out of a collision between an automobile and a truck on Georgia avenue, December 21, 1925. Judge Cobb dismissed the case. He held that the plaintiff had failed to show that the accident was caused by the defendant.

Large Crowd
The oath of office was administered to Judge Cobb by Judge George C. Aukum of the Municipal Courte. A large crowd witnessed the ceremony. After he received the congratulations of his friends and members of the bar, he took his place on the bench and his clerk, Frank W. Adams, began calling of the court calendar. Forty-one cases had been assigned for trial before Judge Cobb. During the day three were tried. The others were continued.
In the large crowd which packed the court room to witness Judge Cobb being sworn into office were Emmett J. Scott, Perry W. Howard, William L. Houston, Mortimer M. Harris, John R. Hawkins, John D. Gainey, Charles P. Ford Charles H. Houston, George E. C. Hayes, Edward A. Baker, Dr. A. B Jackson, L. R. Mhlinger, campbell C. Johnson, A. W. Gray, John T. Risher, S. W. Rutherford T. Settle, Charles Hall, P. Tueaud, L. M. Hershaw, Herbert C Akers, Robert B, Benjamin L. Gaskell, Charles Robinson J. Jones, Whitefield McKley, Dr. A. M. Curtis, Rev. J U. King, Rev. J. C. Olden, C. C Williams, Rev. R. A. Fairley, Jack Hunter, Leon A. Morrison, J. E. Williams, Roscoe Wilkes, C. W. Banton and George Hall.
Presented Tokens

Baker, cochair of the Prudential Bank; Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Powell, Dr. and Mrs. A. M. Curtis, Epilogue Chapter of the Boule, the National Benefit Life Insurance Company and the directors of the Prudential Bank.
The Washington Bar Association gave him a copy of Jones on Evidence, Mortimer Mc Harris and Sandra stenotomys, gave him a desk fountain pen.
When his court recessed for lunch, Judge Cobb issued a statement thanking his friends. He said:
Expresses Thanks
"I want to take this occasion to thank my numerous friends, and especially the newspapers, for their kind and generous expressions of confidence in my integrity and ability to fill the judgments in the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, to which I was appointed by President Coolidge on February 15, last, and confirmed by the Senate on March 17. I would like personally to express my appreciation to each and every one, but, owing to the multiplicity of duties upon me, at present I shall have to use the instrumentality of the newspapers, which, I know from past experiences, will be only too glad to be the vehicle for the expression of my thanks."
pressure Judge Cobb is filling the vacancy caused by the death of the late Judge Robert H. Terrell,

DECK HILL'S TRIAL GOES OVER UNTIL COMING MONDAY
The trial of Deck Hill on a charge of rape, assault and attempt, to kill, alleged to have been committed upon a woman living in the 900 block on Princess Anne road on June 2, which was set for Wednesday in Corporation Court No. 1, was continued until Monday morning, June 28.
The case was reached on the court docket Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock but owing to the lateness of the hour it was carried over. A large number of spectators expecting to hear the trial sat in the court room from 10 o'clock in the morning until 4 o'clock in the afternoon only to learn that the case was not to be heard on that day.
Hill was in court, as were some of his relatives from North Carolina. He is represented by Attorney John W. Davis.
VIRGINIAN DEPLORES RACE'S DEBASEMENT
That the offensive word "nigger" is certain to grow more and more into disuse is distinctly emphasized in a recent letter to the Washington Post signed by one Alfred B. Williams, who lets it be known that he is a Virginian, deploring the flagrant and unnecessary use of the word by Southern congressmen when discussing affairs concerning Negroes. The attitude of Mr. Williams in this respect is identical with that of a very large element of refined white people who have long since appreciated the offensiveness of the term and discarded it out of respect for the sensibility of their fellow colored citizens.
Mr. Williams's letter which the Post published, specifically refers to the proceedings of a congressional committee public hearing on "wrong" "nigger" was repeatedly applied to a Negro veteran of the World War.
The letter reads as follows:
"To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Some of us have been taught that the first and essential principle of what is called a gentleman is consideration for the feelings and rights of others.
"I note in the stenographic report of the proceedings of congressional committee published in the Post that members of the House from Southern states peatedly used the word "nigger" to a Negro veteran of the world war, insane from

Willie Howard, alias "Hoeckey-foot," and Bernald Ashford, tried in Corporation Court No. 1 Wednesday on a charge of highway robbery at the point of a pistol were found guilty and sentenced to a term of eight years in the penitentiary each.
Howard and Ashford were alleged to have held up and robbed Ralph Bryant of $46.00 on Charlotte street near Church early on the morning of May 2.
injuries incurred in the service of his country. They seem to have rolled the word under their longues as a delicious morsel and to have thrust it into the record to stand there as evidence of their own superb valor and allegiance to noble principles. One of them boasted, I believe, that "we of the South, know no other term for all of American birth or descent. He may have stated accurately the customs and manners prevalent where he comes from. A well considerable number of Southerners, however, feel that they are undignified, improper and indecent to offend and humiliate wonton people who generally are wonderfully behaved, friendly, inoffensive and useful citizens. I can not help wondering whether the attitude and language of these representatives of the sovereign people would not change materially and rapidly if the "nigger" had votes in their districts and power to reduce their annual earnings to normaly.

GETS YEAR FOR STRIKING WOMAN WITH A CRANK
Leander Godfrey, charged with having struck Mrs. Lizzie Swain, of 957 Dalphin street, over the head with an automobile crankshaft on the afternoon of Saturday, May 22, was convicted upon an assault indictment in Corporation Court No. 2 Tuesday and given one year in the penitentiary. It was claimed that Mrs. Swain was hit by Godfrey when she attempted to act as peacemaker between him and her son who were engaged in an altercation. The woman was said to have struck the highest wounds, the slightest abrasion. Considering the fact that Godfrey had been drinking when he assaulted the aged woman and had himself sustained several stab wounds at the hands of infuriated citizens who witnessed the attack, the jury let him off with a year's sentence.

Offers $25,000
For Y. M. C. A.
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Jacksonville, Fla., June 23—
An offer of $25,000 for a Negro Y.
M. C. A. for this city by Julius
Rosenwald, the Chicago philanthropist,
who is the executive secretary of the
local white Y. M. C. A. The offer
is made that the citizens of Jacksonville, both white and colored must raise $125,000 and start the building, then after sixty days or when Mr. Rosenwald is assured that the project will go through,
he will give his $25,000 cash gift.
The local Y. M. C. A. is not willing to undertake the raising of this sum unless they are assured that the white citizens of Jacksonville will contribute as well as the colored citizens of Jacksonville because it is a clearing house for Negroes who must pass through here to reach other parts of the state, and has a Negro population of almost 50,000.

Constitutional Lawyer Tells

VOTE FOR FRIENDS,
HE ADVISES THE RACE
Moorfield Storey, of Boston, now past 80 years of age, one of the most eminent constitutional lawyers of the country and staunch constitutional protagonist, known to colored Americans as one of their most true and tried friends, growing too feeble to travel much new broadcasts to the country his annual message on civic rights from his Boston home.
Chicago, June 24—Declaring that for Negroes in America "there are no Republicans and no Democrats, only friend and opponents," Moorfield Storey of Boston, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in a message read at the Opening Mass Meeting last night of the Association's Seventeenth Annual Conference, urged colored people to unite in behalf of their citizenship rights. Mr. Storey who was secretary during Reconstruction days to Senator Charles Sumner, and has been president of the American Bar Association, could not come to Chicago because of the strain of such a journey in his advanced years, sent the message read last night.
His Message
"We represent more than twelve million persons of Negro blood." Mr. Storley's message continued, "entitled under our constitution and laws to every right that belongs to any American citizen, sure eventually to receive those rights, and determined to fight for them until they are secured.
"The need of the hour is union. We must act together, work together, and vote together, no charity, no privilege, the only charity, AMC, American citizen, the right to live unmolested in any house where we have a legal right to live, the right to be protected in our persons, and property against mob violence, the right to a fair trial if accused of crime or involved in any civil controversy, the same rights than any other citizen has in public parks, public schools, and all public institutions supported by taxes of which our taxes are a part. We ask equal rights in public conveyances, public hotels, public places of worship, and the right to vote for otherwise we are taxed and drafted without representation, the cause of the Revolution which established the United States.
How To Vote
"How shall we use our votes? The answer is: Vote together for men who will work for our rights and for no others. There are for us no Republicans and no Democrats. There are only friends and opponents. We are tired of promises, pleasant words, appeals to our

OTHER NAMES BEFORE THE COMMITTEE
Howard University Alumni Supporting Deans Miller And Holmes For Position Declined by Bishop Gregg.
NAMES OF OTHERS ARE MENTIONED FOR POST
(Special Correspondence)
Washington, D. C.
June 22—Bishop John Andrew Gregg of the African Methodist Episcopal Church has declined to accept the presidency of Howard University, to which he was elected by the board of trustees on June 8, to succeed Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, who's resignation becomes effective June 30.
Committee Meets
The committee appointed at the February meeting of the board of trustees to make recommendations regarding multiple persons for the presidency met in New York city on Tuesday. This committee consists of Colonel Colquell Roseveelt, Dr. Charles R. Brown, Alfred Bushnell Hart, John R. Hawkins, Dr. Sara W. Brown, Dr. M. O. Dumas and Dr. Hugh G. B. Pierce.
This committee has had under consideration for the vacancy John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A, M. E. Church and president of the Prudential Bank; Emmet J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University; the Rev. Jesse E. Moorland, a member of the Howard University board of trustees; Professors Charles H. Wesley, Dwight O. W. Holmes and Kelly Miller of Howard University, and Rev. Mordecal Johnson, pastor of a Baptist Church in Charleston, W. Va.
Neither Dr. Hawkins nor Dr. Scott is in a receptive mood, it is said. Dr. Scott prefers to continue in his present position. The Rev. Mordecal Johnson is regarded as a likely choice. He is said to be the administration candidate and it was planned to put over his selection at the board meeting when Bishop Gregg was chosen. He failed to appeal to the personnel inspection of the members of the nominating committee, which practiced illiminated him from consideration at that time.
The Rev. Jesse Moorland looms as a strong contender. He was placed in nomination at the previous board meeting against Bishop Gregg. He is said to be strongly supported by certain members of the board.
Professors Kelly Miller and Dwight O. W. Holmes are the candidates of the General Alumni Association of Howard University. Dean Miller is their first choice. Prof. Charles H. Wesley is also strongly urged for the vacancy, but he is opposed by the administration and certain members of the faculty. It is probable that special meeting of the board of trustees will be called by Dr. Charles R. Brown, its chairman, to hear the report of the nominating committee and elect a successor to Dr. Durkee.

PluKo Wins Again
"I was terribly discouraged about my hair when I started using Improved Pluko Hair Dressing," says Miss Luella Wells, "But I had only been using this preparation a few days until my hair became smoother and glossier. This encouraged me so much, I kept right on using it and now I have an abundance of long, straight hair which I can arrange in any manner I wish."
Improved Pluko Hair Dressing is fairly taking the country by storm as more and more men and women, like Miss Wells, are finding how easy and pleasant it is to use this delicately fragranced preparation which melts at the temperature of the scalp; soothing the itching of dandruff and quickly doing away with this trouble; making the hair soft, and glossy and easily arranged; and stimulating its growth, so it soon becomes long, straight and abundant.
If your dealer doesn't have Pluko, send, us, his name along with 50c if you want the Snow White Pluko or 25c if you want the Amber and we will send it to you through him and thus save your postage.

SABBATH GLEE CLUB TO SING HERE SUNDAY
Tremendous Crowd Expected To Hear Richmond Singers At City Armory Hall For Benefit of Sanatorium.
The famous Sabbath Glee Club of Richmond, will appear in concert at the City Armory Hall on Sunday afternoon, June 27, under auspices of Eureka Lodge No. 5. I.B.P. O. E. of W., and the local health committee of the Negro Organization Society for the benefit of the $10,000 drive for Piedmont Sanatorium at Burkeville. A new building is one of the most urgent needs at this Sanatorium which is a retreat for Negro tubercular patients, and the Negro Organization Society is endeavoring to raise $10,000 in the State to provide this building. Norfolk's quota of the $10,000 is $1400.
The fame of the Sabbath Glee Club is both national and international, it having been described by Hon. David Lloyd George, former premier of England on his recent visit to this country, as "one of the best male choirs I have ever heard. I am almost certain it is the best."
Mr. Douglass Gordon, former editor of the Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch and now editor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, a foremost music and drama critic, reviewing one of the Sabbath Glee Club's recitals said:
"This is one of the few organizations that sing spirituals according to their 'true mode. That is to say, not only are these odd, sometimes plaintive and sometimes stirring pieces of folk music sung without accompaniment, but they cannot be sung to accompaniment—certainly not to accompaniment by keyed instruments—for the reason that in countless cases quarte: are sung, whereas our keyed instruments sound only full tones and half tones.
"Moreover, while most of the spirituals sung by the club are published in various arrangements not one of these arrangements contains the precise version of any one of the spirituals sung by the club. This is true, not only for the reason that our system of notation does not recognize quartetones, but for the further reason that much of the harmony produced by these singers is spontaneous. Matthews is strict with his singers where strictness is required but when he recognizes that any one of them has an accurate ear and so keen an instinct for harmony as to warrant it, he pretty much lets him sing as he pleases. permits him to make his own harmony. Thus, the harmonies in any given spiritual is not infrequently varied. Thus, again, they have never been transcribed. Except that the melodies follow the true curve, there is little regidity of expression in the wonderfully effective interpretation given by the club."
A tremendous crowd is expected to hear the club sing here Sunday afternoon as the occasion provides both an opportunity to render needed aid to a most worthy cause and to hear the best male chorus in this section of the country.

At the opening of the morning service, Mr. Percy Hemmingway rendered a very touching solo which put all in a receptive mood for the sermon by the pastor, Rev. J. Diamond, who took his text from L. Luke's book, "The High Standard of the Christian." In the part the pastor said the Christian's standard should be higher than the other people of the church but often they think the standard too hard to meet. The standard which Christ set them to do with their friends you do not call your friends but the standard the world has taken is to do those who do you.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
HIGH OFFICER OF TENTS CLAIMED BY DEATH
Mrs. Mary C. Stewart, a prominent citizen of Hampton, a National Superintendent of the Grand United Order of Tents and Grand Treasurer of the endowment department of that organization, died at her hone on Wednesday, June 16.
Her funeral was conducted from the First Baptist Church of Hampton on Friday, with the Rev. Mr. Johnson, her pastor, officiating. Although not a member of that church, Mrs. Stewart's funeral was held there so as to provide more room to accommodate the numerous friends, and representatives of the societies with which she was affiliated to attend.
The deceased was widely known in Tidewater and was prominently active in women's clubs and fraternal societies. She was among the first graduates of Hampton Institute.
The funeral was attended by a vast crowd representing the Tents and other organizations, besides her numerous personal friends. The floral designs were numerous and beautiful. Mrs. Stewart is survived by her husband, William Stewart, two sons and a daughter-in-law.

(OSE"-WHO THINK! | Surely
<Negro pascball can be _truthlly

sgent.to play a.colored club? | There
is a rpason. Class will tell!!
“~The Only Difference
-About the only difference be-
tween big leayue baseball—white
sind black—~and again we me a n
gon a mechanical standpoint—
“here are mote white big league
‘elubs under the cover of organized
“haseball than there are colored
“Zfiibs, and because of the fact that
“they ‘have more than a thousand
“tines more people to draw from,
“are able, therefore, ta got and
Maintain’ more good players,
thereby. ‘supporting more good
‘lubs. Colored baseball is not yet
able to compete with the white
sTeagues in either of these two
“pranches. ‘The whites have hun-
dreds .of smaller leagues to draw
from—organized clubs—w he ¥ ¢
players are developed for the big
show.: The Negrocs have three
Jeagues—two of these have work-
ing agreements, the Nero Nation-
di-League and’ the Eastern Asso-
Giation, ‘The forming of the South-
ern Negro League is a step to-
‘Nidrds perfecting the circle in eol-
sored baseball, and it is only a mat-
‘eer of a short time before all the
Aieagues will be working in har-
“mény under the same agreements,
‘xules, ete. This will be a step for-
ward’ in Negro haseball.
Have Little Chance
sacgThe most marked thing about
‘Negro baseball is the remarkable
“progress made under the heavy
handieap exporionced by club own-
feés who have fought to make the
game what it is today. Colored
players have little chance to work
their way gradually into, big time
colored baseball. ‘They "just ot
in—and they have, in a large mec:
sure, made good!" Score one for
the colored ball players! They ave
denied the steady and gradual
training received by the white
plavers who come to the big
agues, yet they develop, by the
hardest, tinder fire, into real stars
sf the diamond. Score another one
for Nogto ball players! The col-
‘ored baseball players haven’t had
the same, or anything like the
‘same afforded the whites, yet they
have produced their ‘home-run
kings, wonderful outfielders, fleet
dase-runners, star pitchers, and in
fact, stars of every position of the
game who rank with the best that
ean be displayed by the Bix
Leagues, The only difference is
‘that we can not display as many
as thé whites—and this surely’ is
snot expected of the colored group.
‘As soon as fans who follow the
play of the colored league clubs
take note of these faets and weigh
‘the matter earefully—the game i
going to advance by Teaps ani
bounds.
S Can Rolf Its Own,
Pick your white chib, and we
will pick a colored club its equal.
‘That's our answer to the compara
tive strength of colored and white
‘clubs. A. good colored club can
hold its own against a good white
‘club. ‘They have proved it many
‘times. Organized Negro base~
pall is coming—getting better each
yenr, but it must be patronized
more uniformly hy colored fans if
it ds to grow as it should, THATS

Giewine and her powers as an emo:
tional actress.
‘The task of taming Gloria falls
to tho lol, of Lawrence Gray, who
almost breaks his neck trying to
break her ungovernable temper.
This is the second time Gray hus

With its policy of Keeping abreast

on June 20, bringing with them ex-
cellent academic training, lofty: as-

tribute to their future profession.
In order to further prepare these
men for their life work, the Com-

thorough course,in insurance sales-

New York University, will conduct
this school of insurance assisted by
the secretary, W. Ellis Stewart,
and Irving Armstrong. The course
will be open to all beginning sales-
men, :
The problem confronting Negro
companies heretofore has been that
of interesting young college men
and. women in the field work of life
insurance, although the . larger
white companies are yeatly at-
tracting large numbers of college
graduates to their field forces.
Now that a step has been taken in
the ristht direction, it is expected
that cach year more college men
will follow these beginners into a
luerative field that has long been
seblantaa:

DURING THE YEAR
+ SRE FAS: WES SAVES TES
‘The Grand Lodge of Knights of
Pythias and Courts of Calanthe of
Virginia met in its annual session
at Staunton on Tuesday, Wednes.
day and Thursday of last week
with Grand Chancellor W. B. F.
Crowell, of Roanoke, presiding any
with Supreme Grand Chancellor S,
W. Green, a visitor. i
‘The sessions were characterized
by harmony and enthusiasm to a
very -marked degree, The atten-
dance was splendid, there being
one of the largest: delegations of
State Pythians. gathering in an-
nual session in tecent years. The
reports of the officers showed
marked gains for the lodge numer-
ically and financially for the year,
the reading of which provoked a
genuine renewal of the old-time
Pythian spirit. :
Mayor Delivers Welcome
‘The sessions began Tuesday
morning at 9 o'clock in Mt. Zion
Baptist Church, of which the Rev.
Dr. McCreeey is the pastor. ‘The
weleome address on behulf of the
city wag delivered by the Mayor
and was responded to on behalf
of the Lodge by Grand Chancellor
Crowell.
‘The reading of the officers’ re
ports were enthusiasteally recev
ed as was the annual address of
the Grand Chancellor, The report
of the Grand Keeper of Records
and Seal, Eugene West, of Nor.
folk, was one of: the most illumi-
nating and encouraging he has ren-
dered the lodge during his four
years tenure in that office. Not
only did the figures of the report
point to a most encouraging. in-
crease in receipts over the previous
year, but the manner in which the
books and records had been kept
eligited the unanimous approval
of the body, which was very dis-
tinetly reflected in Mr, West's re-
election as Grand Keeper of Rec-
ords and Seal for the fourth
term,
The Report
His report showed that the re-
ceipts for the year were $20,127.09
—death claims paid, $20,127.25,
leaving a balance in’ the endow-
ment department for the meeting
of death claims of $4,720.25. These
figures show a marked gain over
last year, The report also showed
an increase in membership during
the past twelve months of: more
than 500; the issuance: of: 800 new
policies for the year and the ad-
dition of three new lodges. Vir-
ginia Pythias now comprise 172
lodges and 5,618 members. ‘There
were 134 death claims paid last
year. Mr. West’s report also not-
ed that during the past year the
Grand Lodge has received a pay-
ment of $18,000 on its deposits
held in the’ defunct Mechanics
Savings Bank, of Richmond,
During the three years the Vir-
ginia Pythians have enjoyed re.
newed affiliations with the Su-
preme Grand Lodge and since re-
turn of the affairs of the Order
ints the, hands of its officers by
the receiver, the lodge has experi-
enced a steady growth; enthusiasm
has been renewed; the membership
list has reflected 'a continuous in-
crease and the revenues have ex-
perienced marked upward trend.
[Loyalty, harmony. and .singleness
‘of purpose mark the officers and
members to a degree that bespealk
unprecedented progress for the
lodge in the ensunig year.
/_ Aside from the inspirational ad-
aresses made by prominent speak:
Jers at the annual session, one of
particular note being the address
of Dr. McCreecy, Mt. Zion pastor,
another most creditable feature
was the street parade and com-
petitive drill, In this connection
the first prize went to Danville;
second prize went to Norfolk and
third to Charlottesville. On
Wednesday night 2 banquet was
held at Gypsy Hiil Park.

The church is a generally recognized bulwark in the social structure of a nation. Religiously and culturally, it leads, edifices, and sanctifies. People go to it for strengthening and for thanksgiving. Very often the power of the church in a community is in direct proportion to the moral and ethical status of that community. The Hill City is well supplied with houses of worship, many of them magnificent edifices, all of them exerting Christian effort. Among the leading churches are: Court Street Baptist, Rev. V. N. John, pastor; Diamond Hill Baptist, Rev. Wells, pastor; Eighth Street Baptist, Rev. J. W. Tynes, pastor; Fifth Street Baptist, no regular pastor at present; Rivermont Baptist Church; Jackson Street M. E. Church, Rev Harper, pastor; Presbyterian Church Chapel of Good Shepherds, P. E. Church, Rev. Sommers, rector.
Other Organizations
Farewell organizations are a great force in Negro life. Among the strong organizations located in Lynchburg are: Elks, Masons, Pythians, Odd Fellows, St. Lukes, and among Greek letter fraternities, Gamma Omega Chapter of Omega Psi Phi, Virginia Seminary and College. While there is no chapter of Alphi Phi Alpha there are several prominent persons in the city members of the Alphi social, art, theology, and missionary groups. The Y. M. C. A., Taylor street, Mr. J. T. Harris, secretary, and the Y. W. C. A., Monroe street, Miss Lucy Stevens, secretary, do good work.
Professional Men Here
The medical profession is represented here by doctors of tested ability, all of whom have well appointed offices along Fifth street. They are: Drs. J. A. Brown, T. J. Faucett, K. Kettis, J. Ward, and R. W. Lomax. They are graduates of leading medical colleges throughout the United States. There are three very fine dentists in the city, each of whom, in his modern office, treat many patients every day. They are: Drs. H. P. Weston, F. H. Norris jr., and Dr. Jackson.
There are at present no Negro lawyers located in the Hill City.
There are several dance halls and a cracker-jack orchestra in Lynchburg but no Negro theaters or similar places of amusement. Some of the downtown houses have Negro patrons.
Students And Their Schools
As far as could be, ascertained Union and Hampton are the popular choices for Lynchburg boys and girls. Howard University graduated J. W. Goldsberry jr., this June from its medical college; P. R. Higginbotham from its medical college; and Miss Clarissa Wimbush from its college of dentistry. Among the Unionites are Samuel Burford, 20 and W. H. Pence, B. S. Pittsburgh next year. Misses Evelyn Humbles, Vivian Flagg, and Gwendolyn Scott are Lynchburg Mamptonians who graduated this June.
Work and Concentration of Negro Population
A widespread slump in business in general and opportunities for work in particular was reported, but the outlook appeared optimistic to many. There are many large factories here, but no general rule of employment applies. Some employ none of our people, some a few, some many. One gentleman deplored the lack of advancement or variety in work for the masses of his firm. Domestic semi-servile work appeared the chief means of employment for them.
What concentration of Negro population there is in general centers itself on Eighth, Taylor, Fifth, Floyd, Pierce, Jackson, Wise, Monroe, and a few other streets. Unlike many cities of Virginia and the South in general, on many of the best streets Negroes and whites live in seeming goodwill.
The feeling between the races is not tense. Never any serious trouble. Downlown stores are typical of South—courteous, dis courteous, and in different in store. Your correspondent was informed at a certain bank—there are no Negro banks—that he, the clek,
didn't give a hurrah if a certain check was certified, identification was necessary. He was told who to and who not to "hurrah" as a result.
The Hill City—in common with other cities has, in conclusion, a Negro population that is awakening to the power of cooperation, of the ballot, and the importance of economic independence. There are signs of the spirit of the new Negro studded here and there among the people, like stars in a dark heaven, and that spirit is the spirit of creative expression, of desire for absolute and complete emancipation in all fields, the spirit of progress.
That spirit is a symbol of a new leadership, the symbol of the City of Hills of a few years hence.

"I OWE IT ALL TO HI-JA"
How wonderful it is to be beautiful. To have hair that is long, soft and silky—hair that, when bobbed, falls in graceful curls, charmingly framing the face—hair that scents the air with a dainty, mysterious perfume.
Is it any wonder that such women are beloved?
Gladys Robinson, famous leading lady of "The Smart Set," has such hair and says of it, "I owe it's beauty to Hi-Ja Quinine Hair Dressing. Without this wonderful product I would be lost. It is the best thing of its kind I have ever tried and since I am an actress and one who must be as beautiful as possible all the time, I have naturally used many products."
Send 25c in socks or coin today for a full sized package of Hi-Ja Quinine Hair Dressing and a list of other wonderful Hi-Ja beauty products.

NEWPORT NEWS BOY PASSES STATE
BOARD, OF, DENTISTRY
Dr. Oliver Eugene Dabney has successfully passed the Virginia gala and received an office for the practice of his profession. Formal announcement of his location will be made.
Though a bit retiring in nature and very unassuming, Dr. Dahney, is one of the youngest students in New York and one of whom the city is just proud. He finished the public schools of this city in 1912 and entered the university. He participated in the fall of the same year. An a student in Petersburg he will always be remembered because of his participation as a member of the Imperial Dramatic Club, the choir, the glee club, the band, which brought so much cheer to the inmates of the prison. He was a student years on the varsity football team. Despite the many extra class activities, Dr. Dahney was a proud president and a leader. For lack of funds to go on with his studies at this time Dr. Dahney went into the teaching profession and was soon promoted to the principalship of Kingess School in Charles City Co., where he remained until he entered Howard University. Entering Howard came the call of his country. He served in the army eight months, 12 months of school, and with the 6th French Blue Devil Division Floor, Muse Argonne. Chateau Thierry and other less strategic points. For many years he returned uninjured. "By my mother's prayers I came out of the conflict untouched," was the answer he received on the different fronts. To his "angel mother" he attributes also all the success he has attained, for his visit to the sixth Illinois Regiment took their experience over seas it was his mother who encouraged him to go back to Howard University. He heads of his early hopes and aspirations.
Since graduation Dr. Dahney has affiliated with Dr. Lattimore, of Hampton and received the very highest indication from Dr. Lattimore on the dental technique.

Protest 30-Year Sentence Imposed On Woman
(Continued from Page One)
come up for trial in police court on the following morning, Wednesday, June 9, and requested Mr. Oppenheimer to be there 'to help her out.' Mr. Oppenheimer told the accused he would be there.
"That on the following morning Wednesday, June 9, the accused, instead of being taken to the police court, as she had expected, was brought to this court for trial. That the judge of this court asked her if she had a lawyer to defend her and she told him she had no lawyer, as she did not see Mr. Oppenheimer.
"That the accused then pleaded guilty on the three charges against her and was tried by the honorable judge this court, consented given the maximum sentence of ten years in each instance, making a total of 30 years' imprisonment in the State penitentiary."
In support of the petition the Times-Dispatch has the following to say:
To the Hustings Court:
As the petition of H. W. Oppenheimer, attorney-at-law, for permission to reopen the case of Susie Boyd and the determination of Judge Mathews to take the petition under advisement constitute together, a renewed pendency of the case, this newspaper will not place itself in the position of being guilty even of technical contempt—although it has not the slightest fear of proceedings on that count.
“But it respectfully asks leave of the Honorable W. Kirk Mathews, Judge of the Hustings Court of the City of Richmond, to join, as amicus curiae', in the petition of H. Oppenheimer, of the Hustings Court, that the case of Susie Boyd be reopened, that she be allowed to plead again and through her counsel, and that she be put on trial before a jury in the Hustings Court.
"It is respectfully submitted to the Hustings Court of the City of Richmond that after-discovered circumstances, as well as after-discovered evidence, may well constitute sufficient cause to impel the Court to exercise that sound discretion which ledges in his breast.
"It is respectfully submitted that the circumstances in this case which lead the Times-Dispatch to join in the position of Mr. Oppenheimer are these: That the convicted woman was without counsel during the hearing of her case, without fault on the part of her counsel or on her own part; that she was not tried by a jury, as was she questioned by the judge and the Commonwealth's Attorney informed her of her rights, it is gravely doubted if she understood the full meaning of the information thus imparted to her; that if she had been represented by counsel, she, thru him, would have asked for trial by jury; that in all probability the jury, taking into account the accused woman's status in life and lack of education, would have been the judge which would, at the same time, have served the ends of justice.
"For these reasons, which, it is alleged, are equivalent to after-discovered, circumstances, t h e Times-Dispatch, as a friend of the court, respectfully asks leave to join in the petition submitted by H. W. Oppenheimer, of the Richmond Bar, that the Honorable Judge of the Hustings Court of the Court of Appeals, of Susie Boyd, and permit Mr. Oppenheimer, as her counsel, to file such a plea as to him may seem fit—Times Dispatch, Richmond, Va. June 15, 1926."
A prominent merchant of Richmond went into the office of the Richmond-Planet, after hearing of the Susie Boyd Case, and wanted to know if the colored people intended to let the outrageous 30-year sentence stand without making a protest. He told Editor John Mitchell that he stood ready to assist and give a donation for er relief, when he was assaulted that steps were taken in the assault, he half, h er replied: "You need not be worried over this outrageous miscarriage of justice. I shall take action tomorrow in the case to see to it that this sentence is set aside." He later called up The Planet Office and told Editor Mitchell that counsel had been secured. There was a special provision in the statutes concerning forgery cases and that Judge Mathews could and that Judge Mathews asked to act in court and this killing, in appeal would be made to Governor Harry Flood Byrd for a commutation of the sentence. "Tell your people that the white people of this community will not stand for such an outrage."

days that I have been among you.
first felt this welcome in a little
conference which I had in. Tnter-
national house in New York in
talking to Dr. DuBois, We had a
long talk before Chrsitmas. I felt
it again in meeting in a conference
with Dr, Alexander, Dr. Proctor
qnd Dr. Boutte. I'felt it again
when T met the Fisk Club in New
York in February, and still again
sn Chicagv. All of our visits with
Fisk Clubs have increased this ap-
preciation and now the climax of
{tall has been thzse two days here.
{need rot tell you that my heart
has been moved. J need not tell
you that any doubts that I may
have had as.to the advisability of
becoming a Fiskite have been r2-
moved, You do not know me yet,
but you are making me helieve that
you are taking m2 on faith. You
will know me a little better a year
from now. Ail that T am is here.

The "Congress Special" arrived an hour earlier than was expected, the committee had hold the great march until the head and other organizations which h a roused welcome could get there. This could not be done, the delegates contended that because of traveling over 1000 miles they wished to go to their places and refresh themselves. It took most of the transportation facilities of Columbia to remove the huge crowds.

Then, came scores of decorated automobiles and trucks bearing Sunday school children. It was a sight to behold. Thousands thronged the streets, whites and blacks, while the big parades marched to the tune of "Onward Christian Soldiers," and "In the Sweet Bye and Bye." The parade moved up South Main, passed the Statehouse Park, thence up North Main, on Taylor cast out to Benedict College.

Dr. Henry Allen Boyd, then after a few brief announcements introduced Dr. J. P. Robinson, of Little Rock, Ark., the chairman, and from that hour on through Sunday the National Baptist Sunday School Congress was a beehive of religious activities, and campfire girls gave many yells to the leaders of the Congress.

Detroit, Mirn—Miss Thelma Bagnall, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Robert Bagnall, was presented in recital by Prof. Otto Strumer, Monday evening, at Bach Hall. Although Miss Bagnall figured in a serious automobile accident while on her way to the hall, few knew anything of it till the recital was ended. The vehicle upset and was demolished, but except for a shaking up, no one was seriously injured.
Miss Bagnall's rendition of such classics as Mendelssohn's Cappiccio Brilliance and other difficult selections left nothing to be desired. She was the recipient of many beautiful floral tributes.
Last year Miss Bagnall completed the teachers' course at the Toleda Conservatory of Music and Fine Arts, and this year, the collegiate course. Rev. Robt. Bagnall, her father, is rector of All Saints Episcopal Church in this city. The Bagnall family a r former residents of Norfolk.

Walker held his heavens in rapture and called the faithful the same face factored with his theme or giving humorous descriptions of conditions which obtain among the race. Woman was dealt with in her newly concompeted condition as the fit companion of man. Rev. Walker deplored the present day treatment recorded the women of the race by its young men, and declared that a race that does not recognize the great and fundamental principle of the proper respect for the women of that race will surely have a slim chance of rising from the bottom round of the human ladder. While admitting that the moral status of its women, the speaker impressed upon his heavens that it is up to the men to use every effort to encourage and protect woman in her longings for reaching and maintaining a higher moral plane of living.
Interesting statistics were given out by Rev. Walker as to the potential power and energy possessed by the race for accomplishing much along lines of economic enterprise. This should be done, he declared, if we are to give our young men and women something to do after they have graduated from the many high schools and colleges which they are now attending. A people who have within a comparatively short period of time of free activity built forty thousand ordained ministers, with five millions of church communicants, and with one hundred million invested in church property, certainly show ability for organization and can organize. Why not turn some of this great power into economic enterprises that will give our young women something to do and prevent them from falling into devious ways, to then, he continued. If we want them educated, to provide for them, that they may be enabled to use the talents thus acquired. For why should they be educated unless they are going to make use of that education? It is sad to be educated with nothing to do and worse with no prospect ahead into which that education may be made to fit.
The topic of the relation of the professional members of the race to the masses was next discussed. Rev. Walker declared that those of professional attainments remained too far away from the common mass of the Negro race and said that this was a frequent cause of the lack of confidence in the Leadership of the race and of the patronizing of Negro enterprise on the part of the laboring classes. He compared this condition within the race to that of the white race, where the latter race seems bent on the business of helping every number of that race regardless of their condition. At the conclusion of the lecture those present went away feeling that they had heard a strong and helpful presentation of truths respecting the welfare of the race. By request, Rev. Walker will repeat this lecture at Rev. O. C. Jones' church, Monday night, in M. Herman.

George Ducrest, the colored man who is alleged to have killed John Carroll, white prizefighter; during a street fight in Caretret, New Jersey, the consequence being the burning of a Negro church and the driving out of town of 100 colored people, has been convicted of second degree murder and sentenced to from 18 to 30 years in prison. A masterly defense of Ducrest by Attorney William J. Brandon of Newark, who volunteered his services, saved him from execution in the electric chair.

Not Typical of Virginia Courts
The case of Susie Boyd, the Richmond colored woman who was given a sentence of thirty years on charges of forgery by evolving the theft of $185 has attract state-wide attention. The fact that a woman was so severely penalized after plea of guilty and when not represented by counsel makes her case all the more noticeable. Forgery is, of course, a very serious offense, and should be met with severe punishment, but as every one knows, many persons accused and convicted of more serious offenses do not receive the sort of punishment that was handed out to this woman. It is only fair to say that Susie Boyd's case is not typical of the functioning of Virginia courts. Justice is often tempered mercy, more often than not, in dealing with such unfortunate cases. The fact that at the same day, in another Richmond courts white woman adjudged guilty of the offence amounting to $15,000 was given a suspension of two years, accentuated the severity of the punishment given the color woman, and made it appear like a great miscarriage of justice upon the one hand and excessive leniency on the other, due to the racial identity of the two accused women. It is also important to note that certain white people of Richmond, are backing the press of that city in asking that Susie Boyd's case be reopened.

Conquering Nature
Since man's beginning he has waged an increasing battle to subject nature to his will and wish. Though the battle has now waged for thousands of years, nature is still the master of man.
Since man's beginning he has waged an unceasing battle to subject nature to his will and wish. Though the battle has not waged for thousands of years, nature is still the master of man.

Victory is not yet in sight for man but his advance, though slow, is unchecked. Nature may never be entirely under the control of man, who is actually a part of nature, but her many elements are being subdued one by one. Man's greatest struggle with nature has been the prolongation of human life, a thing over which nature for ages held complete and uncontested sway. Science, medicine, education and sanitation as conceived by the genius of the human mind, are successfully driving back the forces of nature toward the lengthening of the average span of life. On the basis of the progress made in the past three decades toward the prolongation of human life we can hope to have an average life span of three-quarters of a century within the next 30 years.
The automobile, the railroad, the airship, the telegraph and the radio are exemplifications of man's conquest of nature. Astronomy and archaeology—man's science—have brought within his ken the universe and the past.
Anything man can think of he can do if he works at it long enough. We have abolished the plagues and devastating epidemics of our early history and we shall abolish the diseases which take their toll of human lives today. Nature is surrendering to man inch by inch and is making man greater for the struggle. When the time comes—if it should—when man no longer has to struggle for supremacy the decay of the human mind will be swift and sure.
Ordinary rules of sanitation in the home and by municipalities are saving the lives of thousands of Americans annually and making virulent epidemics almost unheard of. How many people a few years ago knew that malaria germs were spread by the mosquito and that many disease germs were carried broadcast by the common housefly? No greater in number than these were those who realized the efficacy of screens, covered gar-
buge cans, clean yards and the elimination of stagnant water in exterminating the mosquito and the fly. A fly in the house is a sign of careless housekeeping in this era of swat-the-fly. It is only in the poorest tenement districts and the squalid homes of the mountaineer that the housefly is still given free reign to taint food and carry disease germs from person to person. Neither is the mosquito permitted to inject his malaria germs into the veins of every sleeping human. To successfully combat the fly and the mosquito the campaign should be launched early in the year. The municipal spring clean-up was designed to rid the house-yard of the winter's accumulation of debris so these fly and mosquito breeding places would not be present when the breeding time arrived. The careful housewife also repairs and installs her window and door screens before the spring debut of the fly and mosquito.
But the battle against summer's pestiferous conveyors of disease must not stop with preventatives. Debris must not be permitted to accumulate, garbage cans must be closed tightly at all times and screens must be kept tightly closed and carefully repaired. And the fly swatter must be kept in daily use.
"Medical Education For Negroes"
In the Forum this week, printed elsewhere on this page Dr. Wilbur A. Draughn lineates the rather serious condition which fronts the Afro-American students in medicine. What is true of medicine is a cause of many other professions and vocations, and calls for serious consideration and constructive action.
In almost every city in the United States, particularly in the Eastern and Southern sections, there are successful and proactive Afro-American physicians. Many of them are wealthy in a moderate way, and many of them have sons whom they want to succeed them in the practice of medicine where are also numerous pharmacists and scientists who have graduated from Howard Medical College who have achieved success in a professional and economic way. A more ordinary example would be set if these men would underwrite without delay the $50,000 which Howard Medical College maintains its standing as a class "A" institute. The medical men could afford to meet the emergency as a matter of interest if no higher motive actuated them to take lead in preserving to themselves and their descendants the privilege of practicing medicine. If they take the lead in setting Howard, Afro-Americans as a group would adoubtedly be to their assistance in helping other institutions, and in building and maintaining the hospitals that are needed in Virginia and elsewhere to permit the system of medical education to comply with the demands of the various state boards of examiners.
It is unquestionably true that Afro-Americans have got to meet and solve most their problems out of their own resources, much money is being donated for race educational institutions, but these benefaction does not as a general rule include the schools which train physicians, lawyers and more other specialized vocations outside the realm of common education. The states are appropriate no money for such schools. Obviously the race needs physicians, but the states and the high benefactors are not willing to it. The race itself must surely be the need until it is universally recognized and supplied.

In almost every city in the United States, particularly in the Eastern and Southeastern sections, there are successful and prosperous Afro-American physicians. Many of them are wealthy in a moderate way, and many of them have sons whom they want to succeed them in the practice of medicine. There are also numerous pharmacists and dentists who have graduated from Howard Medical College who have achieved success in a professional and economic way. A most salutary example would be set if these men would underwrite without delay the $50,000 which Howard Medical College needs to maintain its standing as a class "A" institution. The medical men could afford to meet the emergency as a matter of self-interest if no higher motive actuated them. Certainly the public looks to them to take the lead in preserving to themselves and their descendants the privilege of practicing medicine. If they take the lead in saving Howard, Afro-Americans as a group will undoubtedly come to their assistance in saving other institutions, and in building and maintaining the hospitals that are needed in Virginia and elsewhere to perfect the system of medical education required to comply with the demands of the various state boards of examiners.

Howard's New President

There is general gratification among the race at the election of Bishop John A. Gregg to be President of Howard University. He is not only prepared by education and experience to make a success of a difficult work but he is said to be a man of magnetic personality and social charm. He ought to make the ideal president of our most outstanding school of light and leading. The fact that he is the first man of our group to be elected to the presidency of Howard is significant of the change of opinion which has come over the trustee board of the school which has hitherto set its face as a flint against the election of an Afro-American as president, although there has for many years been a loud demand for such.
We do not underestimate the good work of the white presidents of our schools since the war. Many of them have been great and good men, entirely devoted to the work and to the welfare of the student bodies. But the position of white presidents has constantly been growing more difficult because of the attitude of the white people in the states where such schools exist and who do not think that the white presidents and professors should place themselves on equality with their students and off-color members of their faculties, and the disposition to cater to this sentiment and to draw the color line in these our own schools has been the provocation of the growing troubles we have been having of late years. Again, naturally, our young graduates have the notion that no positions in our schools should be closed against them. When a bar is set up, as in our army and navy, and as it has been in our schools since the Civil War, they naturally feel that it reflects upon them as well as upon the race, and the general disposition has grown from year to year to protest against and resist the discrimination. We have plenty of men and women qualified to fill all of the positions in our institutions of learning, and these people require a fair field and no favor for the exercise of their talents. They do not get it in the white schools and they should not be denied it in their own.
In the breakdown of the color bar at Howard University a very great and good work has been accomplished.

ing of a few immediate difficulties would open up the road to a grand success. And now about those half humorous class prophecies, which found in each of a hundred senior groups the predestined successor of every present day successful personage.
Now seriously, what about the actual nature of these thousands of young people? Note these facts to begin with: The present generation that supplies parents for homes, directors for business enterprises, workers in the professions, and, alas, criminals, and inmates of prisons and insane asylums, this generation is dying out. Only a few more years and it will be gathered to its fathers, but will homes be no more, or business institutions, or jails and criminal classes? If these institutions and human groups are to continue, then by whom will they be manned and of whom will they consist? Not the dead. But the present generation of graduates. Yes, some of these now graduating, physicians and lawyers, nurses and chemical engineers, teachers and construction contractors, will be behind prison bars, or, worse still, will be unconvinced objects of nothing to decent people.
A majority, however, will be filling places of responsibility and honor. Let no one become pessimistic about our present day graduates. I have looked into the upturned successors of upwards of three hundred this year in five different institutions. It was in inspiration. One's own generation had made many mistakes, marred terribly its record, sinned before God and before man. Here was an oncoming generation, hopes dimmed, reputations unsullied, preparation that would profit by our mistakes, build our foundations, a fititter instrument for the use of kind Omnipotence. How could respond? How could anyone?
But in the case of the individual graduate, is he certain of the glory that shall be the majority of his fellows? Only in proportion as his past and present make him merit it. On the average, one's future will like his past unless there be some such imacult change as that of conversion or notification. The "regular fellow" theological student will become the ministerial awalag, who ever and anon disgraces aly calling. The student who finds it necessary to deal in bootlegging and "hot stuff" order to get through school will most probably find that it takes that to keep such man going in ordinary life. The "wise" girl who lived on the outer edge of decency get a thrill out of college life will either be to cease the search for thrills or still sing her good name on a thread. But the neat, conscientious student need have no fear. The same hard work, sacrifice and felicity to ideals which have brought him as far will win him high places of honor and power in the coming years.

From Washington Post
In its dealings with Haiti the United States is under peculiar obligations of good faith. The people of Haiti are entitled to their country, every inch of it, and to govern it themselves. Whenever they can do this successfully it will be the duty of the United States to withdraw without assessing against the Haitians any trumped-up expense charges or exacting from them any abatement of their sovereignty. The record of the United States in this respect in dealing with Cuba and Santo Domingo is beyond reproach. It must be equally clean with respect to Haiti. So long as there are Haitians possessing the patriotism and capacity of Louis Borno there is hope that the intervention period will be curtailed, with every assurance that the country will guard its independence, preserve order and conserve its prosperity.

We Entertain a Visitor
From Virginian-Pilot
The President of Haiti arrived in Washington a few days ago. He was met at the station by Secretary Kellogg and other representatives of the Government. He was escorted to a hotel where he now occupies the presidential suite. He went to call on President Coolidge and the call was returned. He was entertained at a White House luncheon and shown every courtesy usually accorded the head of a friendly foreign government. Those who read of his reception and entertainment might easily conclude that he is an important personage and occupies a position of power and influence at home. But such is not the case. President Louis Borno is nominally the head of the Haitian government, but the real head is an American High Commissioner who reports to the Navy Department and is wholly amenable to the orders of the Coolidge administration. Haiti has been occupied by United States Marines for years. Its finances are administered under the direction of a financial adviser selected in this country and its laws are suggested largely on American initiative. The republic has almost forgotten what a popular election is like, and popular assemblies are things of the past. President Borno is entertained in Washington with all the formality due a foreign potentate, but he really has far less authority than an Indian maharajah. He is recog-

Editor, Journal and Guide:
Last week the State Board of Medical Examiners for the state of Virginia convened in Richmond for the examination of applicants to practice medicine and surgery and required the applicants for the examination, of this number there was only one colored applicant. WHY?
Before matriculating at a medical school the prospective medical student must complete a two-year college or university. There are certain rules and regulations governing these colleges and they require that the college measure up to a certain fixed standard. After finishing the course at the accredited college the student must take four years of medical education at "A" Medical College. The rating of these approved colleges is fixed by a National Board of the American Medical Association known as the Council on Medical Education. After completing the four years of medical education at "A" Medical College, the requirement of the United States, require that the medical graduate must take at least one year internship at a recognized hospital. A recognized hospital is one that has at least one hundred beds, a regulated hospital, a regulated gynecologists and the required laboratories—such as X-ray, bacteriology, pathology, etc.
There are at present only two schools (Medical) for colored students meeting the necessary requirements, and one of them (Howard) has a slide hammer that rests on a floor. Howard must meet certain conditions by June the 30th this year or be dropped back in the "B" class. There are now only accommodations in qualified hospitals for Negro young men and women for thirty-five Internes a year. At present there is not a hospital in Virginia qualified to graduate Nurses in the state. Howard must some recognized hospital in order that these pupil nurses may take the examination before the Nurses Examining board of this state, and the circumstances, it means that unless some active steps are taken by the Negroes themselves in the next generation Negro doctors will pass out. For it must be remembered that the leading Medical school of this section of the state admits only students duly admitted only admits a two year and these two are denied the right of practical gynecology and obstetrics. That is, as a large number of charity patients are examined by them, a student is barred from examining them.
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO
ABOUT IT?
The fellow who is out and practicing medicine seems to feel that he is alright, why worry? This is not the feeling of a large number of doctors. They see what those requirements and conditions are in an interview of the profession of medicine SHALL NOT die when they cross the river Styx. There is no reason why Virginia should not build and maintain at least two or three hospitals to meet the requirements of the profession. And the physicians who are desirably and even anxious that their profession shall live after them have decided to use every ounce of their information to help the public to this grave situation. If we do nothing it will mean that in a short time other avenues now open to the race will be closed. Mr. Kelly Miller, Jr., representing the Howard Endowment fund said the other members of the Society that up to that time nearly Fifty Thousand Dollars were needed to complete the fund. An SOS should be sent to every church and to all the colored people of the U. S. to see that Howard remained in the $^{A2}$ Class of medical
The Race cannot afford to take a backward step along any line. And we MUST attempt to measure up to the requirements laid down or GO DOWN. SHALL WE GO DOWN?
BY neglect of so important a situation that it is incapable of keeping up with the march of progress?
The facts are as they are here stated. The writer is well aware of prejudice and all the other unfortunate conditions that arise from the practice of petty jealousies existing in the medical profession itself. He knows that the people are not fully cognizant of our situation. He is well aware of the prejudice that exists between the patient and realists that out of the great number of the profession the few who are trying to fight for the future doctor a character with which they are difficult to face. The latter writer is far broader than the profession; it takes in the whole Negro race. It is not a professional responsibility, only in so far as to arouse public sentiment and affect the profession. It affects the race. There is no quarrel with any one of those who brought about this situation nor with those of the profession who are not exerting prejudice. This is a matter of life or death to the future of Negro in medicine, Shall ALL of us sit idly by and lose out. It will require much sacrifice, but what is required is to let us foreign personalities, jealousies and whatever else may be in the way and see only a trying condition confronting us and quit ourselves like MEN and go to it with all our force and win.
Personally I don't care where they build in Norfolk nor who shall head or control the hospital so long as Norfolk and other Virginia cities give us an accredited hospital by certification be able to take the required practical training to qualify to practice: medicine and surgery in this state. there is an carnest cry from all over there in state for more colored doctors. Shall we HEED this cry?

A Significant Step in the Higher Education of the Negro By KELLY MILLEP
The trustees of Howard University have elected a colored president to this well known national Negro institution of higher learning. The choice has fallen upon Bishop J. A. Gregg of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, now stationed in South Africa.

who is widely reputed as a man of piety and wisdom. Howard University was founded by General O. O. Howard in 1867, and chartered by Congress as a university for the education of youth in the liberal arts and sciences. From its foundation down to the present time it has been under white presidents with the exception of two years when the Honorable John M. Langston served as acting president. The present change in the raciality of the headship of this institution is the result of deliberate policy and indicates the most significant stop in Negro education since its inception two generations ago. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, Chairman of the Committee of the Trustee Board, charged with this choice, was thoroughly convinced of the practical wisdom of the new policy. It is believed that it is best that the intimate, internal management should be brought in closer sympathy with the social sensibilities of its constituency and that through the force of exalted example its appeal may be more persuasive to the ambition and aspiration of Negro youth. The Board of Trustees is composed of 24 members, divided between the races in the proportion of two to one in favor of the whites. The faculty is about equally divided by the color line. There is no contemplated change in this respect either in the faculty or the governing board.
Howard University has been receiving appropriations from Congress since 1879. During the past 47 years the total government appropriation has amounted to more than $4,000,000. The government would search in vain for any like sum that has resulted in greater national value and advantage. The justification of this governmental provision rests upon the claim of the Negro race for fair educational consideration at the hands of the federal government. It is not merely based upon a vague, undefinable feeling that somehow the government owes the Negro an unpaid debt of gratitude. In fact, if not in law, colored youths are effectively excluded from prizes supported by the federal government. The grant to Howard University is but a moral.
Dr. Kelly Miller sounds a call for national cooperation from the race with Bishop Gregg's administration at Howard University. This is the time, says Dr. Miller, for rival claimants for the distinguished honor to lay aside their disappointed ambitions and look with enthusiasm cooperation to ward making Howard University the great commanding institution of learning which it is easily calculated to be.
Dr. Miller does not entertain doubts as to Howard experiencing new difficulties in securing necessary Federal approprations because of the institution having a Negro headship. In fact, he is inclined to the belief that a tactful and high calibre Negro president of Howard, such as he believes Bishop Gregg to be might obtain even larger approprations.
though not legal offset to this exclusion.
Negro colleges and universities are in the main supported by private philanthropists, but Howard University for the past 40 years has benefited very little from such sources. Its maintenance has been all but wholly by federal grants and tuition from the student body. Some fear was expressed that great risk would be incurred by a colored president charged with responsibility of securing these annual grants from Congress; but the final counsel prevailed that a Negro of the right type and temperament might be even more persuasive than a white man in presenting the cause of his race before the lawmakers of the land. Negro presidents of land-grant colleges have been remarkably successful in provision for their institutions. Several of these schools have secured from a single state legislatures to make adequate provision for their institutions. Several of these schools have secured from a single state legislatures to make adequate provision for their institutions. Private institutions under Negro management have not suffered by way of securing public support. The Dukes of North Carolina have given over $2,000,000 to three Negro colleges all of which are under Negro presidents. On general principles it might be taken for granted that any people can advocate their own cause more persuasively than anyone alien to their situation and circumstances is likely to do for them. The Negro owes an undying gratitude to the white race for furnishing leadership and wise guidance at the time when they were not prepared to direct their own way, but now that their facilities have been developed, intimate leadership will normally fall within the circle of those to be led.
Negro schools and colleges are generally beginning to substitute Negro for white headship. All state colleges have Negro presidents under the general policy of the South which believes that the race should handle its own intimate affairs as the justifiable policy of social separation. The great religious denominations which have fostered the education of the Negro are making such changes as rapidly as racial progress seems to justify. The time may not be ripe for a wholesale shift of the headships of Negro colleges. Due regard must be had for time, place, circumstances and conditions, but as a general principle universally recognized, the whites must decrease, the Negroes increase.
This shift at Howard University imposes very heavy responsibilities upon the president, faculty and alumni. The institution must continue to be managed not only with equal, but greater efficiency than hiltoret. The morale, discipline, standards and methods of work must be kept in closer articulation with the approved methods of management and tuition in the best regulated American colleges. It is to be hoped that Negro management of "the cap-stone of Negro education" will result in larger federal appropriation and also in more persuasive appeal to the philanthropic generosity of the nation.
Rival aspirants and claimants for this distinguished honor must lay aside their disappointed ambitions and look with enthusiastic cooperation toward making Howard University the great commanding institution of higher learning which it is easily calculated to be. Already the interest of the Negro race has become keen and expectant, while the attitude of the whites is curious and quizzical. Howard University now enters upon a new career. The opportunity for educational statesmanship is superlative. The entire race must now rally about the standards of their national university. The day of the greater Howard has arrived.

Of Negro Literature
The entire window of one of the most important bookships in New York, Brentano's, at 27th Street and Fifth Avenue, has been given over during this week to a showing of books by Negro authors and on Negro song and literature. Among the books so shown are "Mellows"; "Color" by Conte Cullen; "Blues" by W. C. Handy; "The Book of American Negro Spirituals" and "The New Negro." Ireland was originally called Hibernia, a name said to be derived from a Phoenician work meaning "furthest habitation."
