OFFICIAL SAYS NEGRO EMPLOYEES EFFICIENT BY LOUIS R. LAUTIER Washington, D. C. - "There will be no discrimination between citizens in considering applications for positions in the Post Office Department." That is the substance of a letter from Postmaster General Harry S. Clifford Mitchell, of the Egleston avenue, Chicago, who had written him comments about colored carriers living in White districts and during that Negroes were neither efficient nor loyal. Citizen Complains "I live in a residence district in Chicago," wrote Dr. Mitchell, where there are few or no Neeses.

Workmen Rescue Man Entombed By Sand Cave-In Workmen Rescue Man Entombed By Sand Cave-In New York City, Sept. 10. Buried in a huge sand bin for one hour and thirty-five minutes Thursday morning, William Clark, 35, was saved by the clever workers who digging for him in the pipe in the tight packed sand, thrush which was enabled to breathe. Clark was at work on the 6th avenue subway at Central Park, west, and 81st street. His duty was to control the chute which allows sand to flow into the concrete mixer to clog. He climbed in and soon was buried, his weight carrying him to the bottom of the pit and the loose sand packing tightly about and Covering Workmen, realizing his danger, began hacking at the stout sides of the bin, hoping to break knees. For an hour and fifteen minutes the workmen dug the sand, which seem to grow deeper, not knowing whether they were digging or a corpse or man. When their labor was rewarded. T. Thomas Fortune, of New York, veteran journalist and dean of Negro newspaper men, regarded for years a dye-in the-wool Republican and true to the principles of that party in victory or defeat, who has given the best years of his life to the study of politics as they relate to his race and country, and who has written thoroughly and with a degree of authority on the political game, in the article printed below, advises American Negro voters to oppose any effort of President Coolidge to succeed himself in the White House. BY T. THOMAS FORTUNE President Coolidge is very close-mouthed politician. It is difficult to determine whether he wants to run again for the Presidency. Information we has seeped through people put forward to speak for him who we often are as mysterious and vague in their outgivings as the Delphine Oracle of old, or as Jesus, "who spake, not to them except by a parable." And to this day we do not know what the real definition of a parable is any more than we know what a parable may mean. And the enterprising correspondents who camp on the trail of the President have all sorts of theories about the President's wishes and intentions but they give us facts. The gambit is that President Coolidge designates to succeed himself, and the offsetting fact is that a very great many Republicans in high and low places do not want him to do anything of the sort. Negro Republicans of every sort and every where should be opposed to the designation of President Coolidge of the office. They do not owe him anything whatsoever because he has done almost nothing to show that they supported him very solidly, for the hirth office he holds. There has been a great deal of sputtering in newspapers over the fact that some 400 white persons who claim to be Republicans gathered in Birmingham, Alabama, and nominated a lily-wild Republican, Colonel Dallas Smith, for Governor, and Mr. Erskine Ramsay for United States Senate. There were no negatives delegates in the allegation. The Birmingham News, a daily newspaper, alleges that President Cloid Ildg is conveyed through friends a request no reference to the ku klux klan he made, but we do not believe any such thing. The lily-wild Alabama people appear to be working in sympathy with the schemes of Mr. Bascom Slemp of Virginia, who is said to be lining up the Southern Republicans whites, with the purpose, if President Coolidge should stand for a renomination of Nicholas Longworth, of Ohio who is Speaker of the House of Representatives, and husband of Alice Roosevelt, the ambitious daughter of the late Col. Theodore Roosevelt. Of course, Mrs. Longworth wants her husband to be President. If he really in the game to win, Mr. Slemp is in a position to control the lily-wild delegates of most of the Southern states he may be able to round up, and if he got enough of such Southern delegates he would make a considerable showing in the National Convention. He can't delegate from Mississippi Georgia, however, as Perry Howard is National Committeeman for the former and Benjamin J. Davis of the latter, and they are both Coolidge men. It looks as if the Negro has been effaced from Southern politics as parties are now ordered. He has not got the organization, the leadership, the patronage nor the money, without which it is impossible to accomplish anything. It is up to him to play a waging game, but to keep alive the waging his citizenship and constitutional right to vote and to vote for, against the times when he will have acquired the things needful to make an effective show in politics. How long will it take to do that? It all depends, but that it will take many years goes without saying. It is always a long way (Continued on Page Six) RESIGNATION PORTER HOOD IS ACCEPTED Ill Health Assigned As Cause For Giving Up Of Post; Friends Think Inadequate Salary Caused Retirement. WAS APPOINTED BY PRESIDENT HARDING Washington, D. C., Sept. 8.—The resignation of the Rev. Solomon Porter Hood as United States minister to Liberia has been accepted, the State Department announced today. A successor has not yet been chosen. Ill health is given as the cause for the resignation of Mr. Hood. Prior to returning to the United States he is said to have had severe paintting spells in Monrovia. Inadequate salary is also ascribed as a cause by those who know living conditions in the Liberian capital. Salary Inadequate The salary of the United States minister to Liberia is only $5,000 a year, which is $5,000 less than is paid to any other minister of the United States. A bill to increase it to $10,000 a year failed to be passed in the last session of Congress. According to Joseph C. Crew, acting secretary of State, "With the cost of living in Monrovia for a foreigner being even higher it is in Monrovia than it is in the United States, impossible for the American minister, to meet the requirements of diplomatic life and his family necessities on the salary now granted to the post." Harding Appointee The Rev. Mr. Solomon Porter Hood was appointed the United States minister to Liberia on October 26, 1921, by the late President Warren G. Harding. Shortly after his confirmation by the Senate he left for Monrovia where he assumed his duties. In January last, he was given an indefinite leave of absence on account of ill health. Reid Page-Clark, white, was sent from the State Department to Monrovia on charge de affaires. R. Wharton, the secretary of the location, could not be put in charge, the State Department said, because he was only a third class secretary and was lacking in experience. Mr. Hood returned to the United States in last February. Chauncey Northern, Tenor, To Tour European Capitals Northern, York, N. Y.—Chauency Newborn, the young Negro tenor, who has been singing with remarkable success during the past season, will give his farewell recital here, at St. Mark's M. E. Church, on Thursday evening, September 9th, and will then leave for a two years' tour of several countries in Europe. Northern will open his engagements aboard with three concerts in London, and will then leave an extended tour of Europe, where he will give tours in France, Germany, and Italy. The European tour of Northern was arranged after several well known managers had heard him sing here, and wanted to give him an opportunity to be heard to larger advantage. The first of Northern's farewell recitals took place at the Sharp Street Church in Baltimore on Thursday September 2nd. In each recital he was assisted by his sister, Ida Northern. Northern, who has been studying with Leon Reins, is regarded as one of the most gifted young tenors of the race. REV. DR. W. L. CASH SAYS A DEEPER VISION OF CHRIST IS WORLD NEED Rev. Dr. Cash In Address At Opening Of National Convention Of Congregational Workers, Defines Religion. Detroit, Mich., Sept. 9. "Religion is a transcribe of the emotion or vision of the human soul standing alone before its Maker." This definition was given by Rev. W. L. Cash in an address at the opening of the 11th biennial session of the National Convention of Congregational Workers Among Colored People here on August 31. Mr. Cash who is pastor of Central Church, New Orleans, La., is the president of the Convention and also assistant moderator of the National Council of Congregational Church in the United States. The Convention is being entertained by Plymouth Church, Detroit, and is meeting in Masonic Temple, 632 Livingstone street. A vision which bears fruit in service, Mr. Cash emphasized, is characteristic of the Christian religion. "When man climbs the mount," he said, "and looks into the face of his God, he is forthward down from the ground to the plains where the moon Christian character knows no other secret than this, vision and service. "It is an interesting fact that men's every physical activity is an effort to express in some tangible way in the world without, as much as possible of that which is going on in the world within. The measure of every man is measure of his vision. The man who is most likely to be lovable and appreciative of the worth of others is the man who is the largest worth in himself; the man whose vision is the widest. "What the world needs today is a clearer and deeper vision of the Lord Jesus Christ. In order to speak boldly and work earnestly for His kingdom, men and women must see the glory of the Christ." Elks Picture Was Obtained Through Dr. R. J. Brown The whole page picture of the Elks' convention which appeared in the Journal and Guide last week was obtained through the courtesy of the Cleveland News, daily paper, and Dr. R. J. Brown, of this city.

The Cleveland News kindly consented to Dr. Brown's request, which after all was rare thoughtfulness on his part, genuinely appreciated by the Journal and Guide. Blown Through Window By Explosion (By Associated Negro Press) Jonesboro, Ark., April, 19th Nick Turnage, the secretary of the ice plant at the Hokel Nobel, was blown through a basement window when an ammonia tank in the plant exploded in the plant Tuesday morning. His injuries were not fatal TWELVE PAGES—TWO PARTS ASPIRANTS TO TRAIN FOR THE SWIFT TIDES ASPIRANTS TO TRAIN FOR THE SWIFT TIDES White Cross Bureau, Under Rev. Simon P. Drew, Sponsoring Movement To Have Negro Girl Win Honors. Washington, D. C., Sept. 8. Next year will most likely see a colored woman crowned the first of her race to negotiate the English Channel. Aspirants for that institution a number of young women, including one of Baltimore, who, is said to have recently completed a 20-mile swim in Chesapeake Bay, were scheduled to make their first dip into the Ocean at Atlantic City. Friday September 10, at 2 p. m., and dip into the Chesapeake Bay Thursday, September 16, at 3 p. m. from a shore spot in Baltimore. Sponsored By White Cross The American White Cross Bureau, of which Rev. Simon P. W. Drew, is president and founder, is sponsoring the swim. He h a s stated that efforts to locate a colored girl capable of swimming the English Channel are not limited to Baptist, Methodists, or any denominations, but open to all Negro girls or women anywhere in the United States. One year of training is the present object of the bureau, after the proper representative has been ejected. During this period, it is proposed, all expense of the swimmer in training will be borne by the bureau, whose aim is to get the financial and moral support of prominent men and women of the race to church and fraternal organizations. Rev. Simon P. Drew, head of the bureau, which was organized in New York 29 years ago, is also pastor of the National Cosmopolitan Institutional Church, and it is said, is rated as one of the most famous evangelists of the United States. Aspirants interested in offering as candidates for the swim should address the White Cross Bureau, 1629 V. street, N. W., Washington, D. C. Reward Offered For The Wythe County Lynchers Richmond, Va., Sept. 8—Wythe county authorities have offered a reward of $100 for each arrest and conviction in connection with the lynching at Wytheville of Raymond Bird on August 15, and Governor Harry F. Byrd states he will supplement the county's reward by an equal amount or more for each arrest and conviction. Governor Byrd has announced that he is ready to lend state assistance in the investigation of the kidnapping of Father Vincent D. Warren by a hooded and robed band in Princess Anne county last week. Norfolk Council Enacts Anti Mask Law At its meeting Tuesday afternoon City Council enacted an emergency ordinance forbidding the wearing of masks in public places. There was no public discussion by councilmen of the reasons prompting the enactment of the ordinance, but it is confident that the majority of the past few days that have transpired in this vicinity in connection with masked bands moved Council to take precautionary measures. The ordinance provides a fine of from $20.00 to $100.00 for conviction on the first offense and a jail sentence of from ten to sixty days on a second offense. The Newport News City Council enacted a similar ordinance some time ago. ANNEL allwood ACTIVE AT 110; MOTHER OF 16 CHILDREN (Special to Journal and Guide) Baltimore, Md., Sept. 8—Mrs. Rebecca Green, who claims to be one hundred and ten years old, is entertaining friends and callers with reminiscences of bygone days. She reminisces about the war and says she cooked johny cakes for Yankees and rebels alike on the estate of the Carroll brothers—Charles, Harper, and the later governor of Maryland, John Carroll. Mrs. Green was born a slave, and has been the mother of sixteen children, and she has outlived ten of them. SAY SOME OF ABDUCTORS OF PRIESTKNOWN Information That Would Lead To Identity of Members of Hooded Band Withheld It Is Said. The names of some of the members of the robed and hooded band that abducted Father Vincent D. Warren in Princess Anne county on Wednesday night of last week are known to a number of the colored residents of the county, it is reported. These residents, it is said, fear that if they should reveal what information they possess they will be subjected to rough treatment at the hands of hooded mobs. The New York World of Monday last reports Father Warren having said he had received information that would lead to the identity of several members of the mob who attacked him, adding: "The only trouble in making public these names would be the possible vengeance the organization of which they are members would wreak on the defenseless Negroes of the community. Information Withheld information "The Negroes of Princess Anne know the klux klux klux members and they know several who composed the mob that attacked me. If they tell the names of these men they are certain to be subjected to rough treatment at the hands of hooded mobs. For that reason I am not going to make public at this time the information I have about some of the men who composed the mob." According to the World's report, Father Warren has said that he had information that two Negroes were taken from their homes by mobs and badly beaten several days before the attack on them. These men had committed no graves offences, and if they had there were the courts to deal with them," said the priest. "Yet they were taken from their homes and flogged in some secluded place in the county. "A colored woman gave a party to her friends in her own home in the county, and while it was in progress a band of hooded men rode up to her door and broke up the festivities in confusion. They warned her she could give no more parties. A reign of terror among the Negro residents of the county has been existing several months." Father Warren's church was packed at the morning services on Sunday with both white and colored persons, each race occupying seats on separate sides of the auditorium. The priest delivered a fervent sermon, alluding to the indignities he recently suffered only in this manner: "Don't do like the mob did. Don't violate the law. You remember how Christ was dragged the highways by a mob horse, how the highways by the cross He Hifted His eyes toward heaven and prayed for his persecutors in this manner, 'Father forgive them for they know not what they do.' Judge B. D. White of the Princess Anne County. Circuit Court has summoned a special jury to probe the kidnapping of Father Warren. PRICE 7 CENTS SWIM l-Corey U.N.I.A.

Leonard has protested that he was not hired to shoot Judge Lamar Smith, but was forced to do it under the threat of rough treatment at the hand of Bachelor, whose motive was to obtain his father-in-law's property. A plea of not guilty by reason of insanity will be entered by the counsel for the defense. This is the third recent instance of Negroes being the "float" for whites in crimes and violence in this county. Glover in Man. Ga. was sentenced to hang a few weeks ago for the alleged killing of a white man and his sweetheart. Glover admitted his guilt, but protested that he had been hired and forced to do the deed by a white man who is still being held in custody.

W. Wilson on July 10th. The count under which the conviction was obtained charged Davis with being an accessory before the fact. Ed. Glover, Negro, has been convicted of the actual killing of the couple and sentenced to die in the electric chair at Millegedville next Thursday.

DANGEROUS COMBINATION Darwin Nearest I have read many of your letters. I think you are very nice and I want to ask a few questions. I am 15 years old, first year high school, light combed, brown eyes, dark brown hair, heavy eye brows and lashes, the opportunist, as the other girl using boy elbows is in love with me. I love him dearly. I am not allowed to have company at home, but this boy says I am the only girl he goes with. One night, with me talking about something and the same, I gave him did not suit him. so he got a certain distance we stopped and I said something and he turned around and went back. He believed something somebody told him. When he is with me his actions tell me that he jovies What must I do to hold him? How can I make myself more attractive? How can I think he deceived me if I knew he'd find out if he goes with another girl. Worried Pun Worried I do not see why you should be worried. In the first place you are too young to have company and if you are not allowed to have them call to see you at home if you are not able to walk with you elsewhere. Now, if the young man is believing what others say in preference to you, how are you going to tell whether he loves you or not for it seems to me he would start taking your word first. Instead of letting your mind run on how to hold him put all that time on your books. Naomi. CONQUEST PROVES BOOMERANG Dear Naomi: have resisted your plans of love affaires in the past and I think they are very nice. I have a few questions I want to ask you. I am 18 years of age and I have been having company three or four years. There is a certain young man that came into my life when I did not like him as I do now because I was only doing it for the sake of him but since then I have grown to like him. He is four years older than I. 1. He says he cares more for me than I do. I don't believe him. Must I lodge him? 2. Must I continue to like him? Don't as "No," for I really like him. Brown Eyes. Dear Brown Eyes: You see the way things are happening now. Well, that is too bad but you took him to spite your girl friends and now he uses you no pleasure as you doubt you will be able to fall in love with him when you evidently intended to play with him to tease the other girls. Now, you see how it feels to trouble one you love. You are doubting you and you are not fair with you and the other girl. Since you know how he aided you, you are the best judge of whether you can believe him or not. SELFISHNESS TO BE CURBED Dear Naomi: I am a girl of 16, brown skin, slender, dark eyes and hair. A young man has been going with me for a good while and he seems to like me very well. Do you think it right for me to have him or some other girl? He tells me he loves but one and that one is me, but when I am not in his presence he is with other girls. I am waiting for you to ad- vise me whether to keep him or let him be. Waiting for a reply. Dear Girl: Don't you think it is no more than natural that the boy would want to talk to the other girls when you are not there or would you just like him to sit by himself and not have a word to say to any one else. If so, that is selfish and the wrong idea. HOME & KITCHEN SUGGESTIONS Edited by MARIAN JANE PARKER. Home Economics Dept., Calumet Baking Powder Co. Ink stains can be removed by oxalic acid.

Fowler Stove & Roofing C The Household Quality Store 245-247 Main St. Phone 22703 Are Palatable We are apt to think of desserts more as accessories than as foods, and when the sweets added at the end of a meal frequently causes indigestion. All desserts have a food value which is determined by the predominating element from which the dessert is made. Desserts such as custards are rich in protein, cornstarch or tapioca pudding is rich in starch; while those containing fat are suet and rich fruit puddings which are served with a hard sauce. These should be avoided at this season since they are heat producing foods and are not relished so much in hot weather. The kind of a dessert is determined by a type of meal served. A heavy rich dinner calls for a light, dainty dessert, as; fruit, gelatine, ice or a sherbet. To me not even the most simple men lis complete without some kind of a dessert. To be thoroughly enjoyed it must be tempting and palatable. During the warm days there is a tendency for the appetite to become sluggish, and a need for stimulation of the appetite; therefore, the dessert should answer this purpose, and be just as cool and refreshing as possible. It need not be an elaborate one requiring a great expenditure of time, but simple and dainty. Many housewives pride themselves in being able to make some certain kind of a dessert. This, of course, being her favorite one. Certainly you can think of homes where you visit and the arrival of the dessert at the table is the event of the dinner. Young Woman Doctor On Harlem Hospital Staff From New York World When five ambulances dashed from the Harlem Hospital the other day to the West 135th street station of the I. R. T. subway, where four persons were injured and a score cut from broken glass in a rear-end collision, observers noted a colored girl of about 28 giving first aid to the sufferers. Her name is Dr. May E. Chinn, and it was learned she is the third colored doctor connected with a hospital in this State. Dr. Chinn is a New York girl. She was born in Massachusetts, but left that State at the age of three and has received her education and rearing in this city. Her mother is Mrs. Lulu Chinn, a caterer, and her father, William Chinn, a watchman. "I'm an only child."

I'm mighty fond of music too, but when I passed the medical exams I decided that would be my career. But I still play and sing. However, I am glad to be a doctor, and while I dislike talking about myself, I'll gladly do it if there is any colored girl who may be interested and wish to follow my line. "If a girl can stand the sight of blood and is not afraid of instruments I think being a doctor is an ideal profession for her. Women are naturally sympathetic and good nurses and all those qualities go to make up a good doctor. "Another thing a girl who wishes to be a doctor must bear in mind is that her time belongs to others. She never knows when she will be free. The very moment she has a few hours off an accident may occur or some one of her patients need her immediate attention. "And, greatest of all, a girl must like people. A cold, unappreciative doctor or a doctor who frightens patients will never get the best results. I believe colored girls are naturally warm-hearted and tender in their ways, and therefore, I think they would make very good doctors in this respect. "What was my most thrilling experience? On, horrors! Sewing up a tongue! I was just starting out on my first day's work when a child was brought to me who had fallen and bitten its tongue so that it was almost hang-out of its head. I felt a bait faint, but went to it—sewed the thing up as you might a dress, and after that—it was easy. I could do anything!"

Brick, ECKERSALL, ALL-TIME FOOTBALL STAR EXPLAINS RULES CHANGES SHAW EXPECTED TO.START YEAR UNDER HANDICAP Raleigh, N..C—It'is Shaw Uni- versity’s turn this year to be hit and hit heavily. Coach Martin wil face the unusual handicap of start- ing with an almost new backfield and a line that Has only one first string man in it. Among the backfield men who are expected to return are Captain-clect ‘Jule’ Mar- tin, Carrington, and Diamond, the Jatter of whom’ was unable to’ play last year because of illness. Ini the line Payne at center is the only man. Spruill and Bowley, both varsity ends are expected to return, ‘The return of Hughes, tackle, is doubtful. ‘Among the list, lost by gradua- tio nare Gill (T), Ballard (G), Bowser (G), Mclaren (E), Mitchell (HB), Doles (HB). .Pridgcon and Chambers will be incligible ‘accord- ing to the C. I. A. A, rales, haying played four years of college foot: ball. Glancing over this list of men who will be unavailable for the team, the predicament con- fronting Shaw is obvious. It will take a pile of courage und deter- mination to forge a fairly success- ‘ful team for the 1926 season and when, the fact is considered that this is Conch Martin's third year ‘at Shaw and the year in which he is expecting to ‘deliver.’ Depend On New Men ‘The only possible variation to this gloomy outlook depends on the new men who enter Shaw this year. Such prospects as Hill of Fayetteville Normal, Brown of Al- bion Academy, and’ Gill of Ben- nett would appear to the Shawites as life-buoys thrown to ship- wrecked sailors. In other words, it is on the new men that Shaw must depend, with the few remain- ing “stars! around whom to build. If, with such a disorganized ma- chine, coupled with the fact that Shaw University is the only ©. 1. ‘A. A. School which has no academ from which to draw men, Coach Martin is able to forge a success- fal team, his success will have been more than deserved. But, stranger things than that have happened. ‘The schedule, as published by’ the C.1 A. A giving ‘Shaw almost a herculean task, follows: October. Christian College at Raleigh. October P—St, Paul at Raleigh. ‘October 16—Union at Richmond. October 23—J. C. Smith at Ba- leigh. October 30—Virginia Normal at Petersburg. November 6—Hamnton at Norfolk.

The rule governing this play is plain and reads as follows: Ai there already has been one or more incompleted passes in the se- ries of four downs, in which the pass occurs, the side which made the: pazs shall put the ball in play five yards hack of the spot of the [preceding gown and the play shail ount aa down. The point to be gained shall romain the same.” SSit, therefore, will be seen that one forward pass tay be completed without the five yard penalty, but the old penalty of loss of a down will be inflicted. 1 such” an in: completsd forward pass is_made ona fourth down, the ball shall go 4) the opponents at the spot of the preceding down as in former years. Curb on Wild Passing “phe five yard penalty will tend to discourage indiscriminate. toss- ing of the ball in midfield or in the carly stages of the games. It will not discourage forward passing by teams which are behind and which need points to win or tie in the clos- ing minutes of play. Under such conditions the.five yard penalty is a trivial matter. “While many coaches do not fav- or the five yard penalty for in- completed passes, it’ should not KAWS FALTER IN NATIONAL FLAG RACE “es seg ny wha Chicago, Ill, Sept.8—The Kan- sas City Monarchs winners of the first half in ‘the Negro National League, and aspirants for the sec- ond half Izadership, slipped a coz in their recent appearance in the Windy City when they met the American Giants in a five game series, losing three out of the five. and dropping to second place in the standing. It was a mighty battle staged by these two clubs for the leadership of the league. but the Giants had the punch at the eritical moments, and the heavy stick work when hits were nesded. Both clubs got good pitching but it takes more than good pitching to beat a club that shows practically no weakness in any department. The Monarch were lucky to get away, with ,theiv first win. They won in tht 12th on an error which should have teen an easy out for the Giants. ‘The Giants are now leading the J:ague by a slight margin and have only five games at home to play with the Indianapolis Cle hefore they close the season while the Kaws have ten games on thelr slate with Detroit and St. Louis as the opponents.

The Richmond division traveled in special cars and the Tidewater delegation led by Mrs. Cora Jenkins, of Newport News, and Mr. Samuel Jackson, of Norfolk, went by Cape Charles. ST. JAMES A. M. E. CHURCH (So. Norfolk) Rev. G. Oliver Wing, D. D. Pastor The pastor preached an excellent sermon at 11 o'clock followed by a general class meeting and the Lord's Supper. Mrs. Wing, the pastor's wife and daughter, Miss Wynona, were received with a hearty welcome on their return from Washington, D. C., where they have spent two weeks with relatives and friends. The union services between First Baptist, St. James and Trinity A.M. E. Churches are still growing in attendance and interest. Last Sunday, Rev. Mr. Wing preached from Titus 2:14, showing there is no sin too great for God to forgive. There will be a musical and literary program at St. James Church Sunday, Sept. 12 at 3:30 p. m., under the auspices of Mrs. E. C. Floyd. The public is extended a cordial invitation with the assurance of hearing some of the best talent of Tidewater. This church presents to the delegates of the Electoral College, Mr. Frank Greenlief Russell, a young man of high character and of a modest disposition. As a church worker his equal is hard to find. Hence the church desires your support (vote) in electing him delegate to the General Conference. He is a most respectable citizen, and his educational advantages have made him intellectually strong, and his connection with the A. M. E. Church from childhood makes him a worthy candidate. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH (Berkley Avenue) Rev. J. C. Diamond, pastor, preached to a full house Sunday a.m., on "The Privileges of a Christian." In part he said: "No one is a member of the church of God who does not believe in Him. Among the many privileges of a Christian, one is that a Christion is able to commune with Christ and can be with Him. At 3 p. m., Rev. Diamond, his choir and many of his members worshipped with Rev. Robt. Harris at Bethlehem Baptist Church on Princess Anne Road 7:30 p. m., the joint meeting was held at Trinity with Rev. Wing preaching. The house was well filled and quite a lively time was experienced. S. M. A. Taylor of Jerusalem Baptist Church worshipped at First Baptist Church Sunday a. n. MT. LEBANON BAPTIST CHURCH Services began here with prayer meeting early Sunday morning, which proved highly spiritual. The Sunday school met at 9:30 with most of the teachers and scholars present. After an instructive lesson study, each class made a commendable report. At 11:30 a.m., a large crowd was present to hear the special sermon to the young women by the pastor which was delivered from Titus 2:4. The B. Y. P. U. met at 5:30 p. m. and conducted a pleasing program. The pastor preached again at night. On Sunday, August 22nd, Men's Day will be observed and the pastor will preach a special sermon to men at the morning hour. Rev. N. D. King, D. D., will preach at 3 p.m. The pastor will preach again at night. Every man thinks he helps others a lot more than others help him. Lott Carey Speaker Praises Norfolk Journal and Guide Brooklyn, N. Y—Professor Nelson Williams of Richmond, Va., educator, promoter and secretary of the Lott Carey Foreign Mission Board of the United States was one of the outstanding figures and speakers at the session of the convention held here at the Holy Trinity Baptist Church the past week. Prof. Williams was strong in his advocacy of racial enterprises and took occasion to class the Journal and Guide as the biggest race journal immediately south of the Mason and Dixon line, a power for good and hews to the line, in defense of the race.

STATE GRAND LODGE OF MOSIACS MEETS The State Grand Lodge of the Mosaic Templars of America held its annual meeting in Ward C. M. E. Church, Petersburg, August 31, to September 1 and 2. The session was voted one of the best ever held in the State. The meeting was called to order Tuesday at 12 o'clock by State Grand Master R. G. Elliott. The appointment of the various committees was announced by the Grand Master and the meeting adjourned until 8 o'clock p. m. A special program was arranged for the night session, when the welcome address to the city was made by one of the city's prominent citizens and the response made by a member of the Order. The reports coming from the various state officers showed that they had been alert to their obligations to the Order in adding new members and doing constructive work. The Grand Master made his annual address Tuesday which was very inspiring to the members. He reviewed the work since coming into the State in January showing much progress. The National Grand Master S. J. Elliott and his private secretary, George E. Brown, were present. N. G. M. Elliott preached a very inspiring sermon to the public Wednesday night. Much credit is due the local committee for its untiring efforts to entertain the delegates and visitors while in the city. The meeting adjourned Thursday after the election of officers. APPOINTED NATIONAL DEPUTY OF MOSAICS W. E. Gibson, member of the mechanical department of the Journal and Guide, and a delegate to the State Convention of Mosaic Templars in Petersburg last week, was appointed a National Deputy Grand Master of Mosaics by National Grand Master S. J. Elliott, of Little Rock, Ark. Mr. Gibson, who is a native of Little Rock, has been active in the councils of the Mosaics during their operation in this State, and his appointment comes as a deserved recognition of his work for the Order. Man Buried Alive Saved By Air Pipe (Continued from Page One) Clark's head and shoulders appeared and he was conscious, through carefully saving his breath. A barrell was jammed down over his head and shoulders to prevent the sand again sliding and undoing the work of his fellows. Fifteen minutes later the crew were able to move the entombed man. By this time, a harness and swing had been rigged so that Clark would be hoisted out of the treacherous, clinging, stifling sand. He was swung in the air and lowered to the ground. Afro-Americans Urged To Oppose President Coolidge (Continued from Page One) from the bottom to the top, and it seems longer to the climber than to the onlooker. But there is no other way. The only hopeful sign in the situation is the fact that the Negro in the Northern and Western states appears to be improving his position in politics, and as he has a free right to vote and be voted for we should have a great deal of substantial gain in the next few years, especially in elective offices. But the Negro everywhere should keep alive as best he can his constitutional right to vote and be voted for, and he should set his face as a flint against any movement in Congress, such as the reduction of representation in Congress, which will justify the states in disfranchising him by accepting the penalty for so doing. We get our citizenship fro the United States and the states in which we reside, and we should not allow the states to deny or abridge our right to vote and be voted for by act of Congress and in defiance of the Federal Constitution.

A. to be developed and known as Liberty University, said that there the Negro would be given the opportunity of being educated along race lines—learning of the great Negro characters of history, imbibing the Negro point of view and outlook on life which would spell advancement for him individually and for the race. The excursionists will go to Claremont to inspect the educational plant. The Negro World, organ of the U. N. I. A. is now asking for donations of the members of the organization to a fund for development of Smallwood Corey. Internal Dissension Internal Dissertation. There seems, however, still to be considerable dissension in the Universal Negro Improvement Association. This week the anti-Garvey wing of the organization headed by George A. Weston, as president general, made a public release it has sent out to the newspapers denouncing Garvey and declaring that he and his chenchmen have been ousted of the leadership of the organization and other officers whose names are listed elected in their stead. The release declares in part as follows: "The extraordinary misconduct, misuse of official power, and swollen ambitions of Marcus Garvey, the late President General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association have been responsible during the past six years for the squandering of funds of the organization, the disruption of its work and the abortion of its policies. Unfortunately also the public has up to now seen only Garvey and knows little if anything of the organization which he has so gravely misrepresented. At this time therefore the organization is faced with the immediate task of setting its house in order and re-establishing itself in the esteem and respect of the world. "Mareus Garvey was convicted and sentenced to serve a term of imprisonment in the United States penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga., after a fair and impartial trial. Dring this trial his ludicrous anties would have aroused the laughter of the Negro peoples of the world had they not been so humiliating to the organization of which he was a high executive officer and whose funds he was lavishly misappropriating in a grandiose effort to keep from paying the penalty of his crime. In the same fashion as he had before misused the funds of the Association and abused the power of his office to advertise his name, he attempted to centre the entire control of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in the hands of certain personal satellites. He appointed unconstitutionally to the position of control a man whom he had thrice before denounced before the organization as dishonest, immoral, inefficient and totally unfit for executive office. "By these measures he planned to maintain his despotic control of the organization until his release from prison, when by posing as a martyr he again hoped to victimize and exploit the organization and the illiterate masses of his race. To this end records of the organization have been removed, its program disrupted and its funds diverted to the purpose of propagandizing to arouse sympathy and to cover the misdemeanors of Garvey, even the official organ of the Organization, the Negro World, being prostitute for this purpose. "After reasoning vainly with Garvey and his henchmen, the organization has been compelled to take definite steps against him. As a result, certain misguided elements have withdrawn themselves from the Association and calling themselves "Garveyites" are holding meetings and carrying on a mail and press campaign in the interest of Garvey, using for that purpose the misappropriated funds of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. "Liberty Hall, 120 West 138th street, New York City, continues to be the Headquarters and general meeting-place of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, and it is planned to erect here the executive offices and Convention Hall of the organization. Funds for this purpose were placed in the hands of Garvey five years ago, but were misappropriated by him to other purposes." Many Remain Loyal In spite of the position taken by this element of the organization, which retains Liberty Hall as Headquarters, denounces Garvey and uses printed letterheads of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, the Negro World is still retained by the Garvey wing of the organization, and each week a representative number of Garvey's loyal followers contribute letters to that paper denouncing the Weston followers. At the aforementioned mass meeting in the Commonwealth Casino of the Garvey followers, the spirit of the meeting and the loyal W. D. BROWN, Secretary followers of the founder of the organization was expressed by one of the speakers, Fred E. Johnson, a special field representative in the following manner: "I want to leave just one word with you to encourage you, and that is this: "You are not fighting the Association's battles alone. You have millions of black men and women, boys and girls, scattered in various parts of the world, who see life just as you see it in the New York Local; who believe that the organization cannot exist and prosper if the name of Garvey is eliminated. We laugh at the cowardly individuals who are now fighting Marcus Garvey and who had a chance to oppose Marcus Garvey when they were in the Executive Council with him at 56 West 135th street. But since Marcus Garvey was handcuffed and locked behind bars a few synephotic cowardly Negroes feel at liberty to get up and slander and willify the man. But you and I will fight Marcus Garvey's battles while he is in prison. We are not going to fight by making a lot of noise on the street corners, but we will fight in a quiet and scientific manner, planting deeply in the minds of black men and women the principles of Garveyism. "When Marcus Garvey dies, then we will look forward to the com- CHAS. E. BELL, Tailor Finest All-Wool Fabrics, tailored to Your Individual Measure, Now On Display.

FRANK McLAUGHLIN Vice President ing of another Marcus Garvey, but as long as he lives we will know no other leader but Marcus Garvey, whether he be in prison in the United States or in exile in any quarter of the globe. "And why should not we reverence Marcus Garvey? We must reverence him because he has caused the scales to be removed from our eyes. He has come to us with a practical program. Were it not for Marcus Garvey you and I, perhaps, would today have no real incentive to life and living. It is he who has given an impetus to Negro business and enterprises of whatever sort. It is he who has made us hold up our heads as men and women, confident in the knowledge that we are as other men are and there is naught for which we need feel ashamed." (Applause.) The split of the organization occurred during the recent convention in New York. Fred O. Toote is acting president general, while Marcus Garvey is president general of the Garvey wing of the N. N. L.A.; W. A. Wallace is secretary-general and Levi F. Lord is chancellor. Whether the new U. N. L.A. will be able to exist and hold a following after Marcus Garvey is released from the penitentiary remains to be seen.

The novels on the titles are many. Miss Marian Mer has been one of the librarians of the novel. During vacation she has read three four novels during a week, now she is giving a few points to the novel, the greatest library Miss Palmer says: "Arrange to say, upon mention, the word novel the average individual thinks of naught except in which the ideas tend to demoralize. Novels like all known to the human being both good and bad. It will be unnecessary to discuss the war because its content is ob novels can be uplifting to any who reads them with an open mind to accept their object. There are several kinds of novels: domestic, society, historical, social life, and psychological. Every kind of activity is reflected in the real; all sorts of problems disfigured, abuses exposed and reforms enacted. Novels whose main object is to meet the condition of the home society during any particular mood, are called domestic or so-called. Such conditions are usually sarcistically or in such a real manner that all chances of probability are erased. The historical novel is self-explanatory, a social-reform novel is one in which the necessary and most obvious reforms of that day and time interwoven into the main theme that none could possibly escape. The psychological novel is the result in which the motives of the characters—their inner lives—are carefully analyzed by the novelist, the results of certain actions are known in the light of cause and tragedy the consequences of self-indulgence; the need of self-confidence on the part of the individual for the larger good of the community or race. Some great law is always impressed. Two novels, The Tale of Two Silos and Silas Marner, have withdrew the test of time because of their style and lesson. The form- by Charles Dickens, is a story of the French Revolution with Bronion and Paris as places of in- struction and preaches a sermon on sublime text, "Greater love no man than this, that a law down his life for his child" the latter by George Eliot of a story hermit, Silas Marner, who was saved from self- lessness and despair by the love a little child. Thus, we can see, notwithstand, the repugnant attitude of many novels in general, many of most helpful and inspiring ad- ditions have been forced to come by the pen of the novelist, which have not only been a source of information but contributed only in the development of hu- man society. the summer reading course for children will close in September. A large number of children manifested an interest in the use, and they are reading the record number of books. Pa- ces and friends are urged to to the Blyden Branch of the Blyden Public Library and get many books that are there to not to any citizen of Norfolk. Branch Public Library: info—Information—Service.

A. A. C. P., and nationally known lecturer and protagonist of constitutional rights, recently wrote a strong letter to the editors of the New York Herald-Tribune challenging statements in the letter of Alexander Sidney Lanier that recently appeared in that paper in which Mr. Lanier challenged a statement of Henry J. Allen's article to the effect that there is discrimination against the Negro as a voter in the South. Mr. Pickens refutes Mr. Lanier's assertion that the Fifteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution does not guarantee to every man without regard to race the right to vote. His letter reads as follows: "To the Editors of the New York Herald Tribune: "The letter from Alexander Sidney Lanier, of Washington, D.C., in your issue of August 9th, is hopelessly wrong in its implications that there is no discrimination against the Negro as a voter in the South. But we are not going to deal with the mere implications, we are going to challenge the absolute truth of two of his statements. "First he denies emphatically that "the Fifteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution guarantees to every man, 'without regard to race, color or previous condition of servitude,' the right to vote." And to prove that it does not, he quotes from the Amendment: "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, or previous condition of servitude." Lanier's Reasoning "That does not seem to Mr. Lanier to guarantee to anybody the 'right to vote,' since it does not make voting necessary at all, but simply guarantees against race discrimination if and when there is voting. Mr. Lanier forgets that this provision must be taken together with that earlier provision of the same Constitution which says: "The United States shall guarantee to every state in this Union a Republican form of government." "Now everybody knows that no Republican form of government can exist without voting, however restricted this voting may be, and the 15th Amendment guarantees to overly man that this restriction shall not lie against his race. In brief, the 15th Amendment only guarantees against race discrimination where voting is allowed at all, and At IV, of the original Constitution, by guaranteeing a Republican form of government, makes voting necessary. States may restrict but cannot altogether drop popular suffrage—and the restriction cannot lie against race. Hence, the guarantee. If an idiot or an ignorantus is denied the right to vote on account of his idocy or ignorance, this still idiot or ignorantus is guaranteed the right to vote "without regard to race." "In the same letter Mr. Lanier also says with emphasis: 'At present there is absolutely nothing in the constitutions or laws of any Southern state that infringes or in any way violates this Amendment—the ignorant and prejudiced charges that are constantly being made to the contrary notwithstanding." Statement Untrue "This statement is so absolute, universal and unconditional that to refute it will require only one example to the contrary. Here it is; from the latest revised constitution of Texas: 'in no event Custom Ma Cost No More Than But What a Differ and Q omMad More Than "But a Difference and Quality Custom Made Clothes Cost No More Than "Ready Mades," But What a Difference in Appearance and Quality FINE TAILORING Watch Obey's Clothes ROBT.

FREEMASON STREET Tel. 31672 shall a Negro be eligible to participate in a Democratic primary election held in the State of Texas, and should a Negro vote in a democratic primary election, such ballot shall be void and election officials are herein directed to throw out such ballot and not count the same.' "This is from the constitution of Texas. We will not stop to quote from the laws based on this constitutional discrimination. In this case one swallow makes a summer. "And now one word as to the implication: that there is no discrimination: even in Southern states where the letter of the law avoids a plain statement of discrimination, so as to avoid technical conflict with the 15th Amendment, the law is made with the plain intention, as the words of the lawmakers show, to enable the administration of the law to discriminate against Negroes. For example, the law will require educational "fitness" of candidates for registration, and then to add that the lawmakers to judge the Negroes "fitness". Such tricks are too numerous to mention here but we would offer to debate them thoroughly with Mr. Lanier or anybody else."

Y., social worker, in the September issue of the NEW MASSES. "Gerald Chapman, most famous of recent assassins, had a splendid Catholic training," says Ornitz. "He showed such promise that his aunt wanted to make a priest of him." "The Whittemore Gang—Protestant, Jewish, and Catholic—had their day of fame by killing ruthlessly and stealing a million dollars worth of jewelry. They all had religious training." Ornitz, who for twelve years handled juvenile delinquency cases as an expert in the Childrens Society of Brooklyn, declares under the title, "Do the Churches Corrupt Youth?" that most notorious criminals of recent years had received thorough religious training in youth, that intense study of religion in childhood is declared by scientists to lead to sexual crimes, and that ministers are often responsible for the production of criminals, since, "they get first chance at the child." The author suggests that religious training should be postponed until the child's mind is more mature. Perhaps religious instruction is for the poor mind to withstand. he writes, "Pehaps it should be delayed until later in life when the intellect can stand the strain of the many horrors and monstrosities that are bound up with the standard religious interpretation of God." "I have first-hand contact with the family history of gunmen, panders, prostitutes, murderers, rapists, grandshale embezzlers, burglaries, baby Borgias, hold-up artist. It is extremely rare to find a man or woman answering for some heinous crime who has not had some sort of religious training, simple or elaborate. "The Catholic killer wears his scapular about his neck." "The Jewish Kid Dropper murderer has a sacred Palestinian talisman in his vest pocket." "The Protestant clergyman who poisoned his masters hand reins before he answers to the District Attorney." "In my work in the Children's Society, I interviewed hundreds of boys and girls and read thousands of similar Slum, middle class, upper crust, all contributed cases. They were folks that did one thing—well—they sent their children to church and Sunday school." Jailed For Killing Negro (By the Associated Negro Press) Arkadelphia, Ark. 16—Ed Pope, white, was sentenced to serve seven years in the state penitentiary Friday after a jury in Clark Circuit found him guilty of murdering Newt Nelson on a second degree charge. The white man is said to have picked a quarrel with Nelson after accusing him of writing an unfavorable letter to the owner of the farm on which they were both tenants. Pope used a knife in the fight. Offers Apology For Insult, Then Delivers Blow Charles J. Wright, of Hunterville, near Portsmouth, will be mighty cautious of the next man who insults him and then proffers an apology. Mr. Wright, a respected citizen of his community, last week sustained an ugly gash over his eye that required eight stitches to close for his faith in the assurance that soft words turneth away anger. His wound was said to have been inflicted by Horace Goodman, of the same community, after Goodman had gone to Mr. Wright and apologized for previous insults. Wright over the head with some unnamed instrument after the latter had most charitably accepted the apology and turned his back to enter a nearby store. The trouble started, it is said, when Mr. Wright was standing in the yard of his home and Goodman passed through, using obscene language. Wright warned Goodman, it is stated, to desist from using such language on his premises, or he would have him arrested. Goodman, it is claimed, remarked that Wright might summon even the Creator if he desired too. Later, if he desired for his remarks and actions. The latter, of course, accepted the apology and turned to enter the store, then Goodman landed the blow on Wright's head. Goodman has been arrested and lodged in jail to await the outcome of his victim's injuries. Throngs Attend Funeral of Death Chair Victim (Special to Journal and Guide) Petersburg, Va.—A crowd, estimated between 1500 and 2,000 persons attended the funeral of James Patterson, alias Bossy, whose body arrived here from the Stats penitentiary at Richmond on Saturday following his electrosecution on Friday for the murder of Irvin Seid, a merchant, here in 1922.

Hundreds of calls have poured into police headquarters making inquiries as to these reports. The police have vigorously denied that anyone has made such a confession. Patterson was convicted in Hustings Court of the murder of Seid, and twice appealed his case to the Supreme Court of Virginia and also to the United State Supreme Court, but his long legal fight for life failed when an order was received here on July 21 from the Supreme Court that the decision in the case stood. There was considerable doubt locally that Patterson was not guilty of the charge, and this feeling was manifested in the aid he was given in his protracted legal battle.

The answer came from Edgar Brown, former national singles champion at tennis, a couple of hours after he had been beaten by the present titleholder, Ted Thompson, Washington, D. C., in four sets, 10-8, 1-6, 7-5, 7-5. "Brown," we had questioned. "why didn't you smash that ball when you were up on the net? Everybody in the stands was pulled for you to smash it. And the former champion of Nebraska was appointed with playing more "upairers" or intelligent tennis than any other Negro in America, by no less an authority than Sol Butler, confessed he did not know. Brown explains that he had learned only one angle of the tennis game. The drive from the base line, according to Brown, is a tennis fundamental and should be learned before anything else. Next should come service, then, in proper order, the net play, the smash, and variety in strokes. "It may be hard for you to understand," he pointed out, "why I could not hit the ball hard when I was on the net. I couldn't because so far I have not reached the point of smashing in learning my game. It is a defect, to be true, but I wanted to master that part of the game which came first." Which one of our male players would it take to defeat Helen Wills? we naively inquired. "Why, fellor," he responded, "Helen Wills could take Ted and me both and defuse us without extending herself. Couldn't she, Ted?" Ted Thompson, the champion who was standing nearby, agreed with his rival.

SAMUEL HUSTON COLLEGE PLANS FOR A BIG YEAR Austin, August—Samuel Huston College is rapidly making preparations for the evidently eventful year of work ahead and for the reception of an unusually large number of students who, according to reports of the Dean's office are coming from all parts of the state and from several other states. The Summer School, which offered work of strictly college grade has closed a uniquely successful quarter. Very impressive convocation services were held, August 19. Superintendent A. N. McCallum of the Austin Public Schools gave the address and eight persons received the Permanent High School Teachers certificate and six were recommended for the Bachelor of Arts degree. The dormitories and rooms are having added equipment and repairs, the athletics use recently is about to be put in fine condition and the roadways and campus, already beautiful, are being made more so. Also, plans are under consideration for placing the library in a separate building and making possible a cafeteria for the students. The new president who succeeds President R. N. Brooks, who spent four very successful years in Samuel Huston and now goes to one of the coveted professorships of Gammon Theological Seminary, is T. R. Davis, who served very acceptably for the past four years as president of Walden College, Nashville, Tennessee. He is a graduate of Howard University, where he spent four years in the preparatory school and four years in the College of Liberal Arts. After receiving his A. B. degree from Howard in 1914, he did work in Sociology in the University of Chicago for the A. M. degree. He taught Sociology and Economics in Philander Smith College for five years, served in the army one year after which he was elected to the presidency of Walden College. professor Davis has written a treatise on a phase of the History of the Negro, which was published in the American Journal of Negro History, and contributed several articles on Education to magazines. The new president brings to the work in Samuel Huston College excellent training, splendid experience, youthful vigor, modern outlook and fine Christian character. Friends of the institution rejoice in the coming of Professor Davis to the presidency at this strategic time, when the College has forged to the front with other leading schools. For History and coaching, another Lincoln man, William S. Taylor, follows "Whirwind" Johnson and makes possible a continuity of the Lincoln system. He won, this past year, the 1916 Class Prize, which is awarded to the student in Lincoln who is the best all-around athlete and scholar combined; he comes very highly recommended by the authorities of the University for athletic ability, scholarship and character. Dean Mohn, B. S, Ohio State University, nationally-known coach of Wilberforce, and an experienced industrial chemist, a writer on Science for magazines, recently contributing an article to the Morehouse Journal of Science, and several years a teacher of Chemistry will head the department of chemistry and probably contribute either to the line or backfield of the pigskin eleven, the type of football, for which he is so memorably noted. Consequently, along with the other well prepared and tried teachers of the school who have already won for the institution the A Class four-year college recognition, the new president and added members of the Samuel Huston faculty give promise not only of holdout students in the front rank but also of pushing it considerable ahead. The past school year, in February, the Board of Education of the M. E. Church, under which Samuel Huston is operated, onuicated what has been considered very epochal educational instruction, that the schools of the system concentrate on only six years of work. It is noteworthy that Samuel Huston College, of all the schools, was the only school already living up to this rule by having only two years of high school and four years of college. It was last year, also, that the State College Examiner, in the light of modern requirements, rigidly inspected the institution and awarded it recognition as an A class four-year college.

Y., Young Men's Christian Association, through the gift of $100,000 by the Mrs. George B. Matthews of that city. Mr. Matthews is president of the Niagara Milling Company. According to officials of the National Council of the Y. M. C. A. here, is the first large trust fund ever created for a Colored Y. M. C. A., and in their opinion the opening of a new era of expansion of enlarged effectiveness for the Association. The income, amounting to about $6,000 annually, is to be used in work among the colored population of Buffalo. Robert B. DeFrantz, building a campaign director of the Colored Work Department of the National Council, believes that Mr. Mathews' generosity will do much to encourage renewed activity on the part of the Colored Y. M. C. A. in cities having Negro populations of 15,000 or less. "There has been heretofore," he said, "a feeling of hesitancy about the erection of new, expensive buildings in the smaller cities, born of a fear that, once built, proper maintenance of the plant would be impossible due to a shortage of income." Mr. Mathews not only has helped to disillusion the public, but has likewise given us an incentive to work toward the accomplishment of our ends in arrears hitherto virtually untouched. Mr. DeFrantz revealed that seven "small cities"—that is, cities having colored populations of less than 15,000—have been asking for assistance from the National Council in putting on local building campaigns this autumn. Campaigns were conducted during the past year in Buffalo, Little Rock, Ark, Dayton, Ohio, and Gernantown. Denver previously had led the Y. M. C. A's in cities of less than 15,000 Negroes with a handsome building and good equipment. Buffalo is the second to put up a new and thoroughly modern structure, and by the establishment of the trust fund has set a precedent in maintenance. When the colored people of Buffalo were asked a year ago to give $10,000 toward the building campaign, they responded with contributions totaling more than $21,000, thus, it is said, arousing en- sirious part of their white friends. Mr. Mathews, donor of the trust fund, gave $25,000 toward that campaign. His later contribution of $100,000 was made on condition that the Association take steps to enlarge its building plans in anticipation of a possible 100 per cent increase in the colored population of Buffalo. A. H. Whitford, general secretary of the Buffalo Y. M. C. A. and its various branches, and William H. Jackson, executive secretary of the Michigan Avenue Colored Branch, are generally credited with having paved the way for the establishment of the Mathews trust fund. It is said that Mr. Mathews had been deeply impressed by the work done by Mr. Jackson, since he first took over the secretaryship in 1924. Mr. Whitford has been endeavoring for the last six years to place the Negro branch on a permanent financial basis. BELHAVEN Bohaven, N. C.-M., and Mrs. J. W.

But their efforts have resulted in “bringing the fight game into disrepute in “New York state and in Pennsylvania, and ~imay have done so in the other states of the Republic. Commerciatizing the fight same was bound to result in the scandal which ‘came about when the Boxing Commission _ of New York reversed itself and allowed the “fight between Dempsey and Tunney, and the -Tigsnse committee refused to give Dempsey "a license to fight, because he had evaded the Filles of the Commission in not meeting Wills, and when the Governor of Ponnsyl- vania dismissed Fred White, the Negro ‘Commissioner, because he voted against al- Joiving the Sesquicentennial management to calaige the fight between Dempsey and Tun- cney after New York had refused to do so. “AI of this has provoked plenty of scandal “Riliich must prejudice the fight game and “degrade it by commercializing it. “Drawing the color line in sports, as in “most other things, is an indication of weak- “jess and fear, and that is what it amounts gto.

The New Note In Negro Fiction From ‘the Vineinian-Filot Our own idea of tho special virtwe of Du- hose Heyward's novel, Pargy, is that it views the Negro as merely a Negro and not as a symhol. We have kad novels that employ the Negro to demonstrate tho benevalence of the white man, We have had the novels that employ the Negro to demonstrate the perilous situation of the white man. We have had a flood of novels and short stories that employ the Negro to demonstrate the humor of the white man. But it is refresh ing ang strange to have a novel that employs the Negro net to demonstrate anything whatever about the white man, but morely as the material fram which an artist weaves a rich and eclorful pattern. The very fact that strietly objective treatment of the Negro in Southern liter- ature is startling nes far to establish Frank Tannebaum’s theory that the South suffers from an emotional fixation in regard to the Negro problem. ‘There is no manner of doubl that among vast: numbers of Southern- ors it is regarded as rather questionable to think about the Negro at all. ‘The impor- tant thing is what one fecls with regard to him, As long ax we proceed under such auspices, it is no wonder that we flounder hopelessly in our efforts to find any sound and workable solution of such a problem as the two races dwelling logether present. If Mr. Heyward’s book should set a now fashion for Southern writers, causing them hereafter to see the Nero as a Negro and not as a problem, it might easily rise Srom the estate of a novel to attain that of a so- cial document. President Lincoln And Emancipation Front ‘The (Betershurs) Progeess-tndex ‘The Portsmouth Star says: “Abraham Lineoln, the first Republican President of the United ‘States, proclaimed the abolition of slavery. in Ameria and emancipated ail human beings from bondage.” ‘The so-called “Bmaneipation Proclamation,” issued by President Lincoln on January 1, 1863, pur- ported to give freedom to slaves in territory: in which the people were declared to be in rebellion against the authority of the United States. The proclamation specifically pro- vided that it should be cosiderned as having no reference to slaves held in Arkansas, ‘Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida Georgia, South’ Carolina, North Carolina and Vir- ginia, except West Virginia and seven coun- ties of Virginia, inchiding the city of Aiex- andria, which at that time were in control of the government at Washington. All this territory with exceptions noted was in the control of the Confederate government. ‘The armed forces of the Confederacy dom- inated the entire area described. President Lincoln has come down in his- tory as the “Great Emancipator.” He did not emancipate or undertake to emancipate a single slave in territory where his author- ity was not recognized. For the Portsmouth Stor to say that Abraham Lincoln “pro claimed the abolition of slavery in America” is to misstate history most flagrantly. When our Portsmouth contemporary proceeds fur- ther and says that President Lincoln “eman- cipated all-human beings from bondage” we can only protest that it is endeavoring to cover very decidedly too much territory. pusillanimous. We believe with Alexander Pope that “worth makes the manj want of vit the fellow.” .<. The Negro will yet have his-day in the fight and every other game which men play ‘at.

Is this frecdom of. religious worship, along with freedom of speech and discussion and the right of petition for redress of griev- -anees, being: threatened? Dr. Albert C. Dieffenbach, editor of the Christiun Register, in a exhauscive article in the New York World of Sunday, August 29, maintains that the drift is in that direction; not because of the activity and purpose of the Catholic Church which champions the right of the Church to govern the temporal as well as the spiritual life of the people, but by the Protestants whose forefathers established as ‘a part of their government the arbitrary separation of Church and State. Dr. Dieffenbach maintains that the es- tablishment of a State Church in Tennessee and “the rising tide of Fundamentalism,” have provoked for the American people, “One of the greatest religious issues in the his- tory of Christendom.” Just what this may mean readers of the daily newspapers can judge for themselves by the conflict between the State and the Catholic Church which kas arisen in the Republic of Mexico. “Funda mentalism began as a religious issue within the Church. It spread to all the churches. Today they are all divided.” What appears to be needed is a “New Luther to kill Amer- ican intolerance and thwart the. menace of a State Church.” Intolerance and race prejudice sleep in the same bed and are all but indistin- guishable the on from the other. Justice Spindle’s Re-election ‘That Justice R. B. Spindle finally con- sented to stand for re-appointment to the Police Court bench after having ones ex- pressed a wish to retire from the position and his being given the place for another four-year term by Council is a matter, we believe, for general satisfaction. No dis- paragement of the judicial qualifications of any other citizen is conveyed when it is stated that the police justiceship is a posi- tion requiring peculiar fitness of the person ‘occupying it, this fitness essentially embody ing a decp insight of the social backgrounds of varying human strata and a capacity to harmonize as nearly as possibly the ends of legal justice with tho ends of social jus- tice. Justice Spindle has shown that he pos- sesses the ¢xact qualifications for the posi- tion in a very marked degree. Our obser- vations of the Police Court have been inti- mate and have covered a number of years, und we feel safe in asserting that his im- partiality in administering the Jaw added to his studied efforts always to safeguard the rights of those who are most defenseless and ignorant of their rights has made of his court a model house of justice. ‘The city is fortunate in having Justice Spindle to accept another term on the Police Court bench, Tt is realized that the respon- sibilities of | this position are pressing and nerve wrecking to one who sincerely hopes to serve it in the highest manner, but the opportunities here to render genuinely yal- wable and lasting public service that will aifect both the present und future genera- tions aro almost unbelievable to one un- thoughtful of the sociological ramifications Of Une Potion Court conduct. ‘A Great Month For three things are we grateful to the month of September.

For just now the Negro is being docu- mented nd with the documenta. tion comes more forcibly the truth that man creates, writes, sings, laughs, weeps, and dies,— resignedly of grudingly,—just as well if he be black as if he be not black. In this book, one of the University of North Caro- lina’s series of social studies, Odum and Johnson have treated the songs of the Negro that he sings at his work sympathetical- ly, objectively, and without any blathering sentimentality. A keen insight porvades the effort of these scholarly Southern au- thors, “In some respects it is unfortunate that classification of the Negro workaday songs must be attempted, for, strictly speak- ing, accurate classification snot possible, There is much over- lapping apparent in most of the best types. There are mixed pie- tures in the majority and x cross index would he neeessary for any sort of complete analysis. And yot the total picture is clearer when. the songs are grouped ae- cording to prevailing, themes, as has been done in other chapters on the wander songs, the bad man ballads, chain gganie and jail songs, Favorites of the construe- tion gang, songs of woman, songs of man, and religious remnants. Tn each of these classes itis readily seen that there is abund- unee of new material of great value. And yet, after these at- tempts at classification, there are sors of songs, some the fav- orites of the present day, some among the most attractive, which appear best as simple work songs, sung as an integral phy- sical part of the Negros worka- day offorts. These songs are not the ‘all others’ group. They are more than that; they ave the songs for song’s sake, oxpres- sion for expression’s sake, and ‘hollevin’ jes? to he’p me wid my work.” These authors hewail the same tendencies about the retivence of the uneducated Negro and the often blunt refusal of the so- phisticated Negro as did Prot, Puckett in his “Folk Beliefs of tho Southern Negro,” reviewed recently, “in most instances the Negro is at his ‘best? when being urged to cooperate in the rendering of his folk songs. By his best is meant that he reveals a striking nature and strong per- sonality, whether in affirming stoutly Uhat he knows no songs now or that he has forgotten what he used to know. . Rarely ever does he ‘produeo! if Jet alone with only a first ap- proach. Nor can he be blamed. He is entirely within hig own self-protecting domain, so that his attitude may bo put down, not only a characteristic one but also. a commiendable one. He has his own fun, too, in the sit- uation, In general there are sev- eral types from which little sue- cess may be expected. ‘The more educated and sophisticated Ne- gra not only does not as a rule cooperate, hut looks with consid- erable condescension upon those who seek his help... . Nor will the Negro student or musi- cian himself find ready enopera- tion among his common folk who feel constrained to withhold their folk art from the learned of their own race.” This very set of conditions facings te folk art student is a splendid fickd for a studious, scientific attack. There is a reason, it will help to know it. A swelling crescendo, % race vibrato inimitable, deseriptive in- des of group character, folk urge and race power.” And right here it seems that such fair and competent writers as Mes- sts, Odum and Johnson make the error, somewhat less. glaring, so common among white authors: they arz too inclusive in their generalizations. Despite ef- forts on occasion to avoid it, they look, it seems to us, not upon an individual Negro as an individ- ual Negro, but as a symbol of the Negro. ‘The authors in their preface admit themselves that the ‘songs are collected from a ABOVE THE LAW? ————————LLLL [fess | Yea sh eh — Ko eS Oe.

Her roots strike deep into the soil of Puritanism of whose seed American civilization as we see it today is the fruit, If any one of the hundreds of millions who have lived and died on this con- finent might be choscn to rep- resent America at her best, Eliot would doubtless be that’ man. He was not a super intellect like Emerson, nor moral genius like Lincoln, nor yet a patriotic idol ike Washington; but his life was gentle and the clements so mixed in him, that like Brutus, it ix sufficient to say, that this Was a man, On the other hand, Valentino may be made to typify Holly- wool which sprang up but yes- terday; it represents America xone mad over the gayeties and frivolities of life presented in pictorial .form. Harvard says that ‘life is real, life is earnest’; Hollywood says that the play is the thing. Eliot's life was conse- crated to truth and service; in the lexicon of Valentino these terms did not exist. Harvard scorns Hollywood; Hollywood Iau ghs at Harvard. Eliot regarded tho erotic and sensational ministra- tion of Valentino's as repugnant to his Puritanical soul, ‘The learned ‘didneties of the head of Harvard could give Valentino the headache, ‘The two have noth- ing common in their cultural so- cial or ethical philosophy. Eliot devoted his active life spanning (wo genérations to strenuous service consecrated to the wel- fare of his kind; Valentino, dur- ing a few years of his brief ox- istence, did nothing but pose, ‘The one said to his fellows: “fol- low my example.” The other “look on my attitudinizing.” specimens not otherwise listed ave produets of the Negro him- self and not some hybrid coming fiom somebody else's memory. The book, as far as it attempts to go, is complete and its con- tents ‘finely estimated, ‘This book will be pf uneven in- terest; only a complete reading can justify a final judgment; only the folk song student and sociologist, and in general the students of human values, will see the ultimate worth of it; and they will treasure it, because it is worthy of being treasured. —P, Bernarp Youns, Jr. Harvard says: “straight is the way that follows my lead, and few there be that find it.” Hol- Iywood says: “mine is the broad way to joy, and the multitudes wali together there.” Harvard and Hollywood are hoth great educational institu- tions. Harvard teaches the few; Hollywood the many.

There ate no prereq- uisites, no preliminaries of the rigid academic sort. Whosoever will may come, and look and learn. All of the faets of human history and human experience are presented to the oye. H. G. Walls, in a recent notable opin- ion, has said that the traditional four years of college education of the Tlarvard sort is but time wasted, and that Harvard and Yale in the years to come will he the home of the owl and the bat. We are startled at this ex- treme view, And yet we do know that the visual dramatization of life will greatly modify educa- tional procedure of the future. Instead of marching through Gaul and Caesar at the rate of six inches a day, the student will envisage the whole campaign in two hours on the screen. On its educational side, Harvard should direct Hollywood, while Holl y- wood should supplement Har- vard. The world today stands dis- traught. between these two con- flicting influences—tho grave and severe, and the lively and the gay. Eliot stands for intellect- tual, social and ethical severity. Valentino, exulting in his per- sonal pulehritude, looks upon life as a perpetual holiday. ‘The elements of race may enter into these contrasted attitudes. The Yankee ‘takes his work, his play, his duty and his religion serious- ly. He lives to work. He is perhaps the only man in the world who loves to work. The great bulk of mankind hate to work and love to play. ‘The aus- terity of the Puritan is a di- minishing. influence in the world, Even Eliot is a protest against the awful severity of his ances- tors. In the days of Jonathan Edwards, it was a sin to dance, a sin to play cards, a sin to go to the theater and even a sin to read novels, Eliot stands about half way between Jonathan Ed- wards and Valentino. The ul- timate aim of Harvard is to make the world better, while that of Hollywood is to keep the world gay. Eliot and Valenitino—which of the twain achieved the greater success? If we regard success as the prosperous outcome of action, measured in terms of our common standard of values—the almighty dollar—the Italian eas- ily wears the palm. He earned as much money in a year as Eliot did in his life time. Ours ig a material time. The supreme query is too often: how much is. By Keuwy Miner he worth?, not in terms of in. tellectual, moral and_ spiritual values, but in terms of the ccin of the realm. If again, we measure success by popular ap- preciation and applause, Vakn- tino is the victor. Eliot has cap- tured his thousands, and Valer- tino his tens of thousands. The death of the great President of Harvard called forth the digni- fied homage and dry-cyed respret of the inner circle and the Brahm caste to which he belonged ant the cold calculated admiration of his fellow men who held his character and his accomplish ments in high esteem. The pss sing of Valentino moistened the eyes of the multitude. Eliot lived to bo ninety: tro years old. Valentino reached but a third of that age. What is gained in intensity is lost in time. Eliot's nature was. not capable of experiencing the hicks and thrills and throbs that chat- acterized the vivacious Jtalisa. If the making of money, the wit- ning of popular appleuse and admiration and the sheer enjos- ment of the acst of exiscenc: eon stitutes the charmed life, Valea tino leads the way. But there is a higher appraist- ment of success. The happy’ ou! come of an effort in terms of its own high aims and ideals com stitutes the definition which ap- peals to the sober judgment of mankind, From this point of view President Fliot's life was @ superlative success. The worth- whileness of the motive. reason end in view, must also be given consideration. Valentino was of the earth, earthy. He could never rise above the apprecia- tion of flesh and blood. Eliot vas filled with the higher ant holier motive which comes fre" above. His aim was altruistic his virtues were vicarious. He adhered to the school of thiet which extolled trath and duty rather than the popular meanins of success. It is pathetically true that the goul of success. Fe duced to its lowest terms of dole lars and cents, is leading of youth down the steep pith of di struction, Tho only srentnets that is worth while grows out of positing high ideals and adher ing to them. ‘The outcome is i- different. Now Eliot and Valentino have done their work and gone theit way. ‘Their works do follo® thom. The life of Valentino ws brilliant, vivacious, bouvant: Ni influence is fleeting and evanes cent.
