XXVI No. 42 SEGREGATION LAW TALK IN PORTSMOUTH Certain .Councilmen Favor Enactment Of Measure The City of Portsmouth would seek to get rid of unsightly residential buildings bordering on white neighborhoods by the enactment of an ordinance segregating the colored race if the suggestions of Councilman Dunford, and Councilman Mayo were to carry. At a public meeting of the City Council this week an animated discussion was precipitated over the necessity for and legality of such an ordinance, which some of the councilmen appeared to feel would make possible the removal or repair of buildings which desecrate the landscape. Councilman Dunford, it is stated, declared that Portsmouth is the only city of its size with no laws to keep colored people from moving into white residential districts, many instances of which, he claims, have occurred to the general depreciation of values in the section so entered. Previous Efforts Failed an effort made by the city several years ago to frame a practically segregation ordinance operating on the race proportion in each block was halted by the difficulty presented. City Attorney Barclay said to have explained. He also advised that attempts to enforce such segregation laws in several parts of the country had resulted in reversal by the Supreme Court. Councilman Mayo thought that the validity of such an ordinance might never be attacked. It is said that Councilman White explained that former City Manager Jerven had judged the question and concluded that no valid law could be passed to segregate colored from white people. He said the race question is a serious one that "must be worked out among ourselves." Source of Discussion The discussion of such an ordinance was precipitated by one of a delegation of the Robert E. L. Lee School League who had come to the council meeting to protest against a row of unsightly houses within the neighborhood of the school.

PORTERS One System Grants An Increase Of Over $20,000 A Year (By the Associated Negro Press) Richmond, Va., Oct. 12—More than three hundred train porters in service on the Southern Railway System were granted a wage increase and adjustment when working conditions recently improved, a general chairman of the Association of Train Porters, Brakemen and Switchmen and C. D. Mackay, assistant to vice president of the Southern Railway System. The increase in wages is on the step rate basis, and will cost the "carrier" more than $1,500 a month, or over $20,000 a year. The agreement, which is the only contract between any train porters today, in the United States is two years and thereafter until thirty days in writing from either party to the other of a decision to change. Controversies between the Association of Train Porters and the management of the Southern Railway System have occurred for more than a year, several conferences having been held. There was, however, a failure to agree as to what were just and reasonable wages. Working conditions were agreed on last October, but the wage question taken to the later States Railroad Labor Board, which was abolished after a decision was given. The case was then referred to the parties concerned with the suggestion that they make further efforts to effect a settlement. This is the first action toward the plans of more than 1,000 porters, employed on various roads throughout the country for a national wage increase, which will place on the payroll for porters approximately $125,000 more a year. ADOLPH HUMBLES DIES AT 80 YRS. Long And Useful Career Of Pominent Lynchburg Citizen Closes (By The Associated Negro Press) Lynchburg, Va.

Kills Old Soldier PASTOR TELLS OF SOJOURN IN BELGIUM Rev. Dr. O. J. Allen Gives Graphic Story Of Experiences American Negro delegates to the World's Conference on Missions recently held in Le Zoute, Belgium, succeeded in forcing recognition of Negro missionary activities in Africa as maintained by American groups from the world missionaries gathered at the conference, according to advices received exclusively by the Journal and Guide in a letter from Rev. Dr. O. J. Allen, pastor of First Calvary Baptist Church, who was among the delegates. Foremost among those who had an active part in putting over the program of the conference as seen from the American Negro viewpoint, were Rev. Dr. A. A. Graham, corresponding secretary of the Lott Cary Foreign Mission Convention and a resident of Phoebus, Va. Dr. Allen himself and Bishops Clair, Gregg, Dvs. S. G. Atkins, J. E. East, John Hope, Olden, McCoy, Mr. Max Yergen and Mrs. Williams. Probably the greatest recognition and honors ever accorded a group of American Negroes attending a foreign conference were accorded Drs. Graham, Graham and Graham, the greatestates accorded to Dr. Allen's letter at this gathering of the world's most eminent missionary students. The Norfolk pastor is continuing his travels into Germany, Switzerland and some parts of Italy, along with Dr. Graham and others before returning to the states. His letter follows: Le Zoute, Belgium, Sept. 23, 1926 Editor of Journal and Guides, I beg space in your paper to inform my many friends at home and elsewhere that I am now in the little kingdom of Belgium, and am experiencing a thrill which I cannot describe in words. And it seems almost like a dream. The people here are strange but loving. My environment is altogether un- familiar and yet I feel at home. I have spent one full week in at- tending a wonderful conference devoted to a study of Missions in the cast continent of Africa. I have had as my fellow delegates men of many nationalities and a wide experience and scholarly attain- ments. This summer seven days has been worth as much to me as a full year spent in the foremost university of our land. In some ways I think I have been transformed. I am a new man, I have a broader understanding, a better aspiration, a keener knowledge and a richer mental background than I have ever had before. I have a deeper sense of fellowship and a fuller compassion for the whole world; and I hope I won't seem vain when I say that I am now a better man. High Points I shall no unable to give a full review of the conference in this short letter, but will simply touch a few high points in passing. There were about 300 delegates present. The majority of whom were missionaries in active service in Africa. There were Belgium, French, Germans, Egyptians, Finlanders, Britains, North Americans, white and black, Boors, and native African workers. The Negro delegates from America were, Bishops M. W. Clair and Gregg, Drs. S. G. Atkins, J. E. East, John Hope, Olden, McCoy, Mr. Max Yergan and Mrs. Williams, Dr. A. A. Graham and myself. Several of the gentlemen had their wives with them. At these touched friendly elbows with their neighbors and freely participated in the session of the conference. Among them our most efficient Corresponding Secretary of the old Carey Foreign Missionary society and I attended every session of the conference day by and hour by hour except the first, as we were late in arriving. Dr. Graham by reason of his manifest intelligence and engaging personality was easily one of the most conspicuous characters among the delegates. He literally bored himself in and forced a recognition which was pleasing to his Negro colleagues of America the friends of the Negro race among the many nationalities gathered here. He was persistent and successful in his fight for an open Negro missions in Africa. Negro before the conference: Friday morning, September 17th was able and eloquent and received the applause of his audience. He was sought out and congratulated in the corridors of the hotel and on the corners of the street. His was a plea against the color line in South Africa. Dr. Graham astounded the conference by publicly informing them that the Missionary to Africa from America was a Negro from Virginia by the name of Lott Carey. They were also amazed to learn from him that (Continued on Page Eight) NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1926 MRS. MARTHA MONROE, whose death removed Norfolk's oldest inhabitant. CITY'S OLDEST INHABITANT PASSES AWAY Mrs. Martha Monroe Is Claimed By Death At 114 Years Undoubtedly the oldest inhabitant of this city passed away when death claimed Mrs. Martha Monroe, who lived with her grand-daughter, Mrs. Carrie Bunell, in West 43rd Street, Lambert's Point at the advanced age of 114 years Saturday, October 9. Although of exceptionally advanced years, Mrs. Monroe was only slightly physically infirm, and her mental faculties were intact until the last. She was stout of physique, the furrows in her face not near so pronounced as are those in the countenance of many a person not half of her years, and she was capable of lighting up her well preserved features with a most st辛静 smile. From her wonderfully retentive memory she would relocate friends, included of remote past. When Napoleon was spreading terror over Europe, Mrs. Monroe was born. Her recollection of Naturner's Insurrection of 1831 and of the nebular shower in 1837, "when the stars fell" was as perfect as if these incidents had occurred within the past decade. Of other events spiring nearly a century ago she spoke with a vividness that was indeed remarkable. A Saintly Presence How remarkably well Mrs. Monroe here her years was astounding to all who came within her presence. The heavy weight of an hundred winters had not dulled her hearing and she had not worn glasses during her entire life. With a countenance serene and so dignified, she sat in her easy chair and seemed to breathe a benediction upon all who came within her saintly presence. Mrs. Monroe was born in Sussex county, Va., in 1812, the year America began its second war with England. She was the mother of the First Baptist Church, of Lambert's Point, whose first services were held in a packing shed there. She was a devout Christian and carried sunshine throughout her exceptionally long life. Funeral services were conducted at the First Baptist Church by Rev. D. Jennings, pastor, assisted by Rev. M. Davis, Rev. Harvey N. Johnson, Rev. Mr. Fuller and Rev. O. J. Bullock. Mrs. Monroe was loved by all who knew her and the auditorium of the church was filled with sorrowing Friends, including several white people. The floral tributes were numerous and beautiful, attesting the esteem in which she lived. She is sur- children, one brother, eight grandchildren, 15 great grandchildren four great great grandchildren and a host of relatives. She has one son-in-law, who states that he was married to a daughter of hers for 40 years before she died some time ago. Interment was in Calvary cemetery. Stabbed To Death By Winoan Lexington, N. C., Oct. 13—Because he told her he was going to a show without her, Lula Dean, common-law wife of Willie Cofer, seized a knife and threatened to prevent him, by radical means. Cofer grabbed two bottles, struct her with one, three, four bottles. She drove the knife through his heart. She will be tried for murder.

CHARGE FAMILY RIFT TO IN-LAW Wife of Washington Dentist Wins Suit For Unpaid Washington, D. C., Oct. 13—Mrs. Naia D. Smith, D. D. Nichole avenue, southeast, was given an unconditional judgment by Justice Jennings Bailey last Friday against her husband, Dr. Sylvester B. Smith, a dentist, for $240 unpaid temporary alimony. Mrs. Smith is suing her husband for separate maintenance. She alleges that her mother-in-law, Mrs. Capitola Smith, interfered in their domestic affairs and that her husband failed to provide for her. Dr. Smith denied these charges and declared that his wife treated ment against him. Alimony Payments Ceased Dr. Smith was ordered September 22, 1925, to pay his wife the sum of $15 a week as temporary alimony. He made payments regularly until June 20, last. Since that date he has made no payment. His wife asked the court for judgment against him. Dr. Smith left the city six months ago. He is in the State of Pennsylvania. Attorney Geo.

Mob Outbreaks Cen Bring Renewed Fig Federal Anti-Lynch Mob Outbreaks Certain To Bring Renewed Fight For Federal Anti-Lynching Law Washington, D.C., Oct. 13 —The lynchings of four persons in the South last week are expected to give impetus to the fight for the enactment of a federal anti-lynch bill. A bill to assure to persons within the jurisdiction of every state the equal protection of the laws and to punish the crime of lynching is now pending in the judiciary committees of both the Senate and House of Representatives. To Push For Enactment As a result of these lynchings the fight for the passage of this legislation, which has the sanction of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, will probably be renewed with vigor, when the Congress reconvenes for the short session in December. Hearings were had before a subcommittee of the Senate judiciary committee on February 23, last month the bill introduced by Senator William B. McKinley, Republican, of Illinois. This sub-committee reported it favorably to the full committee, but the judiciary committee voted against a favorable report.

Out of Town Ahead But the out-of-town contestants are determined to drive those two handsome cars out of Norfolk. H. S. Stanback, of the Commercial Bank, Wilson, N. C., is leading them all with 220,000 votes, while W. W. Wallace, of Portsmouth, is tied with Mr. Moses Webb, Newark, N. J., with 210,000 votes each, and both of these are tied with Miss Lacey L. Truhart, of Hampton with an equal number. Returns which came after going to press are not indicated in this week's tabulation. The bill in the judiciary committee of the House is identical with the Senate bill. It was introduced by Representative L. C. Dyer, Republican, of Missouri, whose original federal anti-lynching bill passed the House of Representatives but was killed by a Democratic filibuster in the Senate in December, 1922. Perplexing Questions Two questions plexe those who favor the enactment of federal anti-lynching legislation. The first is the constitutionality of the McKinley-Dyer anti-lynching bill. The second whether or not the passage of this bill would end lynching. Quite a few Senators believe that the federal government would be impotent in curbing lynching and that state legislation would be more effective. These views were brought out at the last hearing before the subcommittee of the Senate judiciary committee. Three of the lynchings last week occurred at Aiken, South Carolina, last Friday morning. One of the victims of the mob is a woman. The mob took Bertha, Clarence and Demond Lowman from their cells in the Aiken county jail, placed them in automobiles and after driving to a pine thicket on the outskirts of town, riddled their bodies with bullets.

ALL NEWS THAT'S NORTH READING PRICE 7 CENTS SAYS HE SLEW WOMAN WHEN SHE QUIT HIM Berkley Man Admits He Shot To Death His Paramour Charlie Davis, 815 Alleghany street, Berkley ward, shot and killed his alleged paramour, Joseph Baskerville, Wednesday afternoon, few minutes before, 2 oclock at 208 Mahone avenue with a 32 calibre automatic pistol. Four bullets entered the woman's body. Death was instantaneous. Davis was placed under arrest by Sergent R. M. Arnold and Detective Leon Novitzky a few minutes later and lodged in jail on a charge of murder. Same Old Story The age-old story of a woman's love growing cold and of her tiring of illicit relations with one man then seeking to break them off only to be free to carry on similar relations with another man, was responsible for the slaying of the Baskerville woman, according to the alleged story given the police by her slayer. Davis gave the detective an alleged confession declaring that he killed the woman because he loved her and she had been away from him for nearly two months, during which time she had got into a condition indicating she was to become*a mother, and that his friends joked him about it. Makes Alleged Confession Asked by Novitzky why he killed the woman, Davis, according to his alleged signed statement, re- plied: Because she had been away from me nearly two months and got into a _____ way, and when I carried the letters around there and showed them to her, she refused to look at them. Further, questioning brought the following answers: Ques. "What were the letters?" Ans. "They were letters she gave from a man in Buffalo and when I showed them to her she grabbed me and told the other woman to call the police, that I had opened her letters." Ques. "Who was the other lady?" Ans. "I did not know her." Ques. "Why did you carry the pistol to the house?" Ans. Because the other man she was going with had said he was going to kill me." "You just told me he was in Duffalo, said Detective Novitzky to which Davis replied: 'No Sir, Not him. She has four or five.' Ques. "Where did you get the pistol?" Ans. "She gave it to me last August." Ques. "Don't you know that that was not enough to kill a wom- an for?" Ans. "Well I have been going with that woman for eight years and giving her from $18.00 to $20.00 a week, but I did not kill her so much for the kill her because I loved her and the boys like me when I came home from work." Ques. "Where was she shot?" Ans. "She followed me from the back of the house to the front room holding my coat, and I shot her in the front room." Ques. "Are you married?" Ans. "No sir." Detective Nowitzky said that four empty cartridges and one bullet were in the window of the front room. A coroner's inquest will be held in connection with the killing Tuesday afternoon, October 19.

Maddy do not be offended by that I am about to say. Since I like to be to you and every this in Norfolk, I refuse to any personal affairs, but all that aside. I have read articles in the Norfolk Jour- nial and Guide and do not sympa- tize with all you say. I do not know that any boy who really maintin from telling her, but in way he would show her and she was not wise enough to take it, it is a very hopeless case. I show a lady who loves a girl, and admire him when he comes out and loves his love at first and then sit at a window and what is love? Is it just foolish idea some one started in honest feeling? I do not anyone with the exception of mother and Father, therefore I believe there is such a thing. I have one more explanation to and that is that I am not a but a husky boy of the ath- type. I have competed in races. Last year I went to Pem, relays and to victoria.

Naomi THE ETERNAL QUEST Dear Naomi; You have helped so many people with their problems, I am coming to you, to help, am a girl 17 years of age, medium height and weigh about 128 pounds. Most everyone says that I am good looking. Naomi, I don't have a friend; of course I have an idea it is because I am not one of these modern flappers. Most of the boys say that I am old fashioned. They say that because I do not like car riding, drinking and putting. I would like to meet a handsome young man between the ages of 17 and 20. Just think I have been all alone for three years. I stay home most of the time, because I hate to go out without a friend and the rest of the girls because I am a high school student in third grade in society and attend church and Sunday school every Sunday. I hope to see this in the next issue as I am. Waiting Dear Waiting: There is nothing wrong in being old fashioned, and you do not have to form habits you do not like to secure a friend. I am sure there are still some young men left to admire a girl with old fashioned ways. If you are not out of school yet, you do not have so much time to give the boys and I would not worry. In due time the right one will come along. Continue to conduct yourself in the proper way and you will attract some nice young man and when you finish school that will be time enough. Do not stay home because you do not have a special friend; go out with your girl friends and you will find that you will have just as nice a time.

Bumble Brown dizplayed his old time form ‘and exhibited a neat piece of line plunging, gaining from five to ten fards alingst at will, Brown was only stopped two or three times without any gain and at those times. when he was. stopped, he came back to rip the line open. Whedbee, knowing Hampton was using many new men in the first line of defense, directed most of his plays at that point. Also knowing the stremth and fighting ability of Captain Lee, of Hamp- ton, it seemed that Coach Hurt had particularly trained his men to drive most of their plays over his position. Lee was really up against it, but he styed there tight- ing back as hard ay he could. Many times, four and five men were tlvown into an interference and sent over Lee's position, with Brown or Moore carying the ball, and rarely did they fai to make the distance. Most of the plays were directed at. Lee, but he fought Hem and they fought him. Game of Breaks Despite the battle put up by the squads, it was 2 game of breaks, ‘probably due to early season Lorn. with new men in the lineup. Tt was anybody's contest at some Slages, of the amo, but neither ‘seemed able to follow up advan- tages. Seminary launched a drive iwice, carrying the ball Jar down into ‘Hampton's territory, but a fumble or a wild pass would upset the attack and the Seusiders would get the ball and punt out of: dan- fer.

The pastor dwelt upon that all that we have and came from the labor and the generations that have before. Our responsibility, however, is all the greater, since our duty as Christians to care for the work that has come from other hands. We strive to preserve the legacies in the harvest of husbands for the kingdom and in down to future generations raised. In this way we are able to those who are com- mitted in and who will look forward to in accordance with our duty by the charge we take our duty.

Elected President Ministers Conference A. At a recent meeting of the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Norfolk, Portsmouth and vicinity, when the annual election of officers took place, Rev. C. P. Madison, pastor of Second Calvary Baptist Church, Norfolk, was chosen president for the ensuing year. It is quite generally regarded as a distinct recognition of effective service in the gospel ministry when this conference elects one as its president. Dr. Madison is leaving the city this week for a ten-days vacation in Greenwood, S. C. He will be back in the city in time to occupy his pulpit on the fourth Sunday. BISHOPCALDWELL VISITS THE CITY BISHOPCALDWELL VISITS THE CITY Expressed Pleasure Over Fine Progress Of The Work In This Section. Bishop J. S. Caldwell of Philadelphia, presiding bishop of the A. M. E. Zion Church, was in this city, Newport News and a few other adjacent points the last week-end. He preached in Newport News Sunday at 11 o'clock a.m., and at Wesley Union, A. M. E. Z Church here, of which Rev W. I. Rowan is the pastor, Sunday night. The bishop's sermon was terse, pungent and highly informative. This was his first visit to Wesley Union, and one of his first inspection trips to churches in this section since assuming charge of this district, succeeding the lata Bishop W. S. Blackwell. The smaller churches came under the inspection of the bishop on this trip including besides the churches in Norfolk, and the church at Sunbury, N. C. He expressed pleasure over the progress of the work here. While in this section, Bishop Caldwell also discussed plans for the coming Virginia Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church which convenes in this city at Garrett's Zion Temple, November 24, over which the bishop will preside. A large attendance is expected at the conference and the local pastors and committees are leaving no stone unturned to give the delegates and visitors a reception complying with the prestige of the city. Crowell Hurt When Struck. By Auto W. T. Crowell, proprietor of a cleaning and pressing establishment at the corner of East Olinty road and Wide street, was struck by an automobile at the corner of East Olinty road and Chapel street. Monday about noon and sustained a severe cut on the head, several minor bruises and a severe shake-up. REV. KIRKLAND A T1ST BAPTIST Rev. James E. Kirkland of Philadelphia who has been leading to large crowds all this week, will preach at both services at the First Baptist Church this Sunday. He will also preach each night during next week, winding up his engagement on Friday evening. The services begin promptly and close by ten o'clock each night, men and members alike are loud in praise. Dr. Kirkland's meeting. The most frequently heard expression is that he is "short and sweet." Quite a sum of money is being realized each night to assist the various boards and departments of the church to make a good showing in the approaching rally. The minimum requirement of these auxiliaries having charge of the services is thirty-five dollars per night. To date not a single auxiliary will report less than its minimum quota in the rally. A unique feature of the services in the week is the placing of responsibility upon each individual member of the organization. A card hung on the end of a pew bears each member's name. He is supposed to sit in his pew and be accompanied by at least five non-members of the church. Some of the members have been so enthusiastically at work that they themselves have been crowded out of their seat by non-member visitors to the service, looking forward to a record-breaking day this Sunday. Several candidates will be baptised after Dr. Kirkland's morning sermon. Communion will be administered at three-thirty. Dr. Kirkland will preach again at 7:30. A special feature for Sunday's services will be the music, which will be furnished by the combined choirs numbering nearly fifty voices and by a number of pieces from the Sunday School orchestra. The two choirs will alternate during the week. Evangelical Meeting Held at Manhattan Theatre Sunday An enthusiastic evangelical meeting was held last Sunday at the Manhattan Theatre, East Brambleton avenue, by Rev. Allen Alexander, evangelist, who preached on the life of Paul. Rev. Mr. Alexander's father the Rev. Thomas Alexander, was present and took an active part in the meeting, delivering the invocation in a most impressive manner, after which he made some very forceful remarks. Mr. G.

It has given me an increasing appreciation of my fellow-man and the Gospel of Jesus Christ; a Gospel that uplifts and beautifies the lives of men. As this Gospel is translated into unselfish and genuine co-operation the world-outlook becomes brighter and brighter. . . . Someone has said that the world is growing better and worse all the time. I thank God that it seems to be growing better taste than it is growing worse taste, drawing a better understanding between nations and peoples; and we are beginning to realize as never before our dependence, one upon the other. "In conclusion, permit me to say that the invitation extended to six others of my race and to me to attend the Helsingfors Conference, and the opportunity extended to me to appear on this program, give encouragement and outlook to the Negro youth of the land. They deeply appreciate the new spirit of democracy and fellowship which this participation cements, and they pledge you their loyalty and trust for the building of a better world." Littleton, N.

LSO DRESS NELSON'S HAIR DRESSING Drought Of Late September Had Serious Effect The Virginia cotton crop defined in condition during the latter part of September due to the dry weather and the October 1st forecast was 44,000 bales, compared with 47,000 bales on September 18th and 58,000 bales produced in 1925. Picking has com­posed and in many cases growers have found that the yield is not as as had been expected. There is still much late cotton which will require several weeks of growing weather before reaching maturity, in early frost will injure such cotton to a considerable extent. The any worm has appeared in prac­cively every cotton growing county in the State; but does not seem to have caused any serious damage. In some instances the loss of leaves has caused the bolls a open more rapidly than would have been the case if the worms had not been present. According to our correspondents approximately 13 per cent of the cotton crop had been picked by October 1st. 2,252 bales had been compared with 6,851 bales in the same date last year. The decrease in the number of bales discouraging to the growers and in connection with the new yield cotton will not be profitable this year. The forecast of production for the United States on October 1st is 16,627,000 bales. This renews an increase of 817 bales since the September forecast and is the 825 bales larger than last year's crop. Favorable weather conditions over most of the October bale period for the increased production. Ginnings to October bales are 5,639,000 bales, compared to the same 7,128,248 bales on the last year.

OF WAX FOR WAXING CLEANING CLEANING CLEANING WANT NEGRO FARMERS IN MICHIGAN WANT NEGRO FARMERS IN MICHIGAN Bureau Announces Opportunities For Farmers Lansing, Mich., Oct.—In keeping with that part of the program dealing with the rehabilitation of Michigan farm lands, the Division of Negro Welfare and statistics of the state announces the wealth of opportunity afforded Negro farmers in locating in various agricultural sections of this state, which steadily decrease in the number of farmers, the continual stream of farm falls,ward, is having its effect in both avenues of life. Each fall finds a greater number of vacant farm properties and a larger list of unemployed in the city. In the latter case, because of racial lines, the Negro suffers more severely than the workman and it is the hope of the division to help the Negro in agricultural training in securing a farm of independence by taking over one of the many attractive offers to be found. It is pointed out that the fall of the year is the ideal time to consider these locations as that season of the year marks the movement from the farm, with many farmers eager to rent or sell their property after the crops have been gathered and disposed of. For the benefit of the tenant or purchaser, the white months of the operation of the farm of plinking and preparing for the spring sowing. Although the division of Negro welfare and statistics is not a selling agent in any sense of the word, yet listings of available properties have been made for the sale purpose of being of service to the Negro group in this connection. It also serves as a guide or adviser to the prospective purchaser who may be unfamiliar with Michigan soil, the division purchaser who may be interested and letters directed to the department, addressed to Lansing, will receive immediate attention.

And Why Not The Fraternal Organizations? The Atlanta Independent advises a merger of the ten largest Negro life insurance companies in the country into one or two giant insurance corporations as a master stroke in the combination of race capital toward economy. A material reduction of insurance cost to policyholders could be effected through such a merger, says the Independent, which sees the proposition as an inviting opportunity for a group of the insurance leaders of the race to combine the resources and energies at their command to insure greater stability and lower costs of operation. The suggestion is not without merit. Undoubtedly some sort of merger of Negro life insurance companies should be effected as a means of strengthening the weaker ones, but there is probably no sound economic reason why all of them should combine. In fact, it is open to question whether one giant Negro life insurance company with all competition eliminated except from the white companies might not prove as vicious as many other great combinations of capital have proved to be. But, as we have said, some degree of merger would be wholesome. The weaker companies that can scarcely make the grade should seek to consolidate so as to make greater solvency and reduced operating costs as the Independent outlined. Then, too, while we are combining Negro life insurance companies, we might as well carry the process of elimination for the sake of economy into the field of fraternal organizations, there being no sphere of the activities more in need of some sort of elimination and absorption than this one. The Independent might not find it as easy to compute the overhead expenses of the fraternal organizations as it computes the operating costs of the insurance companies, but we are certain, should the figures ever be arrived at they will prove immense. Then, too, when we take into consideration the enormous amount of money expended by fraternal organizations' delegates in convention travel we have a staggering total which has no effect toward enhancing the economic standing of the race. Yes, some merging of the insurance companies would be good and doubly as much merging of fraternal organizations would be better. Toward Interracial Harmony Mr. J. T. Whitley, who contributes to "Monday Morning Message" to the (Nev folk) Virginian-Pilot, heading one of his n e cent contributions, "A Worthy Washington begins with this paragraph: Mr. J. T. Whitley, who contributes the "Monday Morning Message" to the (Norfolk) Virginian-Pilot, heading one of his recent contributions, "A Worthy Washington" begins with this paragraph: I count it a distinct loss that I did not read the Autobiography of Booker T. Washington until it had been in print a quarter century, and the author had been 10 years in his grave. Such amazing record of aspiration, energy, courage and achievement is not met with more than once in a generation. Such a stock of common sense expressed in simple straightforward English is strongly suggestive of Benjamin Franklin. At the risk of appearing to "carry coats to Newcastle," I set down a few facts of his phenomenal career. Summarizing briefly the life of his subject and interspersing his own generous comment on the sterling qualities and worth of the man, Mr. Whitley concludes as follows: From the lowly hut of a slave to the esteem of distinguished educators and statesmen in America and Europe, receiving honors from venerable institutions of learning, uplifting his own race Summarizing briefly the life of his subject and interspersing his own generous comment on the sterling qualities and worth of the man, Mr. Whitley concludes as follows: From the lowly but of a slave to the esteem of distinguished educators and statesmen in America and Europe, receiving honors from venerable institutions of learning, uplifting his own race and rendering valued service to the dominant race also, this man surely won the right to wear the illustrious surname that he chose, and made himself fit to go down to history as a worthy Washington. Is there any wonder that progress toward interracial appreciation and understanding sometimes seems to move with a discouraging pace? Here is a white man of letters, whose generous spirit finally brings him to the confession that he regards it "a distinct loss" that he had not more than a passing knowledge of the life of Booker T. Washington, one of the most useful men this nation ever produced, and probably the most illustrious Negro born on the American continent, until ten years after the man had been in his grave, though the story of his life had been circulated in printed form for 15 years before he died. How can international and interracial goodwill ever be genuinely and lastingly achieved until the races of men come to know and appreciate one another—one another's mutual worth and shortcomings—through a study of the writings and works, of each other, the only medium through which the spirit of men can have earthly communion? Editorial Page of Hear this from a young white student in a Tennessee institution: "Until last August (1925) my only contacts with Negroes had been those one makes in a small town with the ignorant, illiterate, happy-g-o-lucky 'darkies' . . . and my attitude was formed accordingly. To be fair, I must say that there was in my town a class of white people on the same level with the Negroes and toward whom I felt much the same. The difference was this. Well, I did not dream of judging all white people by this same unfortunate class, I did tend to so limit my judgment of Negro people. The actual change has come about this year largely through friendships formed in our Commission, through the fellowship experienced at the Tennessee Christian Student Conference at Chattanooga, and through the discoveries made in reading things written by Negroes. To be able to claim friendship with a colored girl has introduced the personal element into all my thinking on matters of race. And this has meant that where once was indifference is now an eagerness to know, where once was condescending kindness is now sympathetic understanding, and where once was a sense of superiority is now a feeling of kinship. should be always the action of the combine command over costs merit.

Sometimes ago the fully look forward to each the lynchless one, were for all hope that 1926 might still clung to the faith that it carry sake of The lynching record for 1926 has been steadily mounting since the first month the year. Sometimes ago those who hope fully look forward to each year provide the lynchless one, were forced to abandon all hope that 1926 might prove to be, but still clung to the faith that the year's record The lynching record for 1926 has been steadily mounting since the first month of the year. Sometimes age those who hopefully look forward to each year proving the lynchless one, were forced to abandon all hope that 1926 might prove to be it, but still clung to the faith that the year's record might at least show an improvement over the record for 1925. Even that cannot longer be hoped for. The three-quarters of the year thus spent already have run up a lynching score higher than was tallied during the whole of last year. Even states which hitherto have been showing definite improvement in curbing this sort of savagery, including our own Virginia, have failed to escape the beoflowing thing this year. But for staging a lynching of surpassing horror, one which stands out as the most peculiarly offensive recorded in years and one which most flagrantly mocks the majestic law, Aiken, South Carolina, has just carried off the palm. Two men and one woman already in the custody of the court are taken from the jail during a recess in their trial by masked men, hurried to a secluded spot and shot to death. Against one of the men the trial judge had already directed a verdict of not guilty. He was in jail awaiting a hearing on a new count, while the other man and the woman awaited final disposition of their cases. The disquieting thing about this disgusting affair is that it indicates that lynching is growing more disdainful of orderly legal processes. There was grave doubt as to the guilt of the victims of the South Carolina butchery. They had once been tried and convicted for murdering a sheriff, but the Supreme Court in a thoroughgoing opinion pointed to this doubt and remanded the case for retrial, in the course of which one of the men was held not guilty at all. The other man and woman, whether guilty or not, their fate was already in the hands of a court, whose machinery was moving with due form and dispatch, when all three of them were summarily done to death. This lynching, along with the Tennessee affair which occurred on the day following South Carolina's lawlessness, shows that lynching grows more frequent for crimes other than those against womanhood. Not one of the four victims lynched in two days was accused of having attempted to violate womanhood, all of which strongly contradicts Senator Hefflin, of Alabama, who on the floor of the Senate, speaking in opposition to the federal anti-lynching bill advanced the argument that lynching in the South survived because of the alleged menace to white women by colored men. Incidentally, it may not be inappropriate to recall that this particular lynching was provoked by the iniquitous prohibition search and seizure practice carried out by certain law enforcement officers in flagrant violation of the constitutional rights of individuals. The sheriff who was killed forcibly invaded the colored family's home in search of liquor and found none. He failed to exhibit anything to identify himself as an officer of the law, and, according to what has since been adduced in course of the trial of those who slew him, he even carried a faulty warrant. He was killed when the Negro family sought to defend their home against what they had every reason to believe to be unlawful invasion, one member of the family, the mother, being slain in the melee that ensured. It is up to the better element of white people of the South to rescue their section from the mire of national disgrace into which this sort of crime is steadily plunging it. If it continues to fail in this respect the people of this country have every right to demand immediate passage of federal anti-lynching legislation. Norfolk Journal and Guide THE GUIDE POST By RICHARD H. BOWLING Dev There were that day for Devils and Darkies There were a number of men in court that day for various offenses, some for grand larceny, some for liquor law violations, one for rape. Time after time I heard defense attorneys refer to their colored clients as "this darkey" or "this poor nigger." At first I was wondering what had come over these amiable men of the bar, many of whom I knew personally to be very fair in their attitude to our race. Finally, a light dawned. A brilliant lawyer stood up to defend a young white found guilty, Very pattisonize as "this poor d here lay the s and pity of a fense attorney client as a poor a child, a poor strong men. S the jury are "a fortunities are There is o for any decree you want to ma void falling in will eventually he will need th of these men h and reputation there would he hity for their e jury.

Even to this type "darky," the re ring to the juni- sympathies. America would of man. a young white man who was facing, if found guilty, a term in the penitentiary Very patitionizing he referred to his client as "this poor devil". I divined at once that here he lay the secret. To win the sympathy and pity of a possibly hostile jury, the defense attorney always played down his client as a poor weakling, but little more than a child, a poor being, needing the pity of strong men.

Spirit of The Press The Sou From The North Now comes past two years bition of mob n in the South i single victim th affairs, there them a woman mob acting in tly following a The South Carolina Horror from The Norfolk (Virginian-Pilot) Now comes South Carolina, whose lynch record had been on the mend for the last two years, with as horrible an exhibition of mob murder as has been witnessed the South in a decade. Instead of the eight victim that ordinarily figures in these crimes, there were three victims, one of a woman. Here was not a case of a robbery in the heat of passion immediate-following a crime that the law had not yet dealt with. The mechanism of lynching Now comes South Carolina, whose lynching record had been on the mend for the past two years, with as horrible an exhibition of mob murder as has been witnessed in the South in a decade. Instead of the single victim that ordinarily figures in these affairs, there were three victims, one of them a woman. Here was not a case of a mob acting in the heat of passion immediately following a crime that the law had not yet grappled with. The machinery of justice was in full function. Two Negro men and a Negro woman were being tried a second time for the slaying of a sheriff in April, 1925. The officer had come to their house to search for liquor. The first trial resulted in conviction, but the Supreme Court ordered a new trial. In the course of the second trial the presiding judge directed a verdict of not guilty in the case of one of the three Negroes. The other two were still to be tried. Now, all three—the man whom the judge considered not guilty at all, and the man and woman whose guilt still wanted a final judicial affirmation—are dead. Maddened by the presiding judge's action, a mob broke into the Aiken county jail, took the prisoners to a nearby woods and shot them to death. It does not lie in Virginia's mouth, remembering the Wytheville abomination, which is still wholly unpunished and likely to remain unpunished forever, to preach too righteously about this new act of savagery. That is one of the tragedies of this miserable business—all the Southern states are tarred by the same stick, some deeper daubed than others, all of them befouled and spotted. But mob murder is mob murder and to be denounced by all decent people everywhere, wherever it occurs, regardless of its previous occurrence near home. In this spirit Virginia and the whole South can join in condemning the South Carolina horror as a befouling of our civilization. What happened at Aliken differed only in degree from what has happened and is happening in every Southern state, and is to be recognized for what it is—a type crime, encountered from time to time all over the United States, but encountered peculiarly and in its most degrading manifestations in the South. It is peculiarly a Southern cancer that we have here to contend with and the most solemn duty rests upon the South to cut this cancer out. a number of men in court various offensives, some for grand larceny, some for liquor law violations, one for rape. Time after time I heard defense attorneys refer to their colored clients as "this darkey" or "this poor nigger." At first I was wondering what had come over these amiable men of the bar, many of whom I knew personally to be very fair in their attitude to our race. Finally, a light dawned. A brilliant lawyer stood up to defend A Poem A Week LONESOME PLACE I got to leave this town It's a lonesome place. Got to leave the town cause It's lonesome place.

On every hand we hear of "difficulties" in apprehending members of the mob of assassins and butchers of Aiken county who once more disgraced their county, their state, the South and civilization. But the "difficulties" are far less than in tracing participants in a murder in which but two or three men are involved. In the Aiken butchery there were at least two score. Some of them can be discovered. They can be apprehended, indicted and tried. They can be tried in some other county, where their friends or fellow-murders would not get upon the jury. Even then they might not be convicted of the crime of woman-butchery, but the financial costs would be some penalty. To talk of "difficulties," to take the cowardly course of going the way of least resistance, will do two certain things—as certain as tomorrow's rising sun: First, it will stamp South Carolina's machinery for the enforcement of the law for the protection of life as "incompetent"; and second, having so branded our machinery, it will give to the advocates of a federal anti-lynching law the strongest arguments they could advance in its support. Already, as a result of this crime at Aiken, a Democratic member of congress from New York has begun agitation for the passage of such a law. Fail to earnestly, fearlessly, courageously hunt down and bring to trial these criminals, and the hands of honest patriotic Southerners who have been fighting federal interference in such cases will be weakened. The backbone of their argument is that the states can and will punish lynchers; take that argument from them by demonstrations of state impotence and they will have no solid ground on which to stand. This newspaper has stood unsurprisingly in defense of state rights—the right of the state to make and execute its laws; and as unsurprisingly we have stood against the encroachment of the central government upon those rights. But the state, to maintain its rights, must be jealous of them; it must maintain them by deeds, not words alone. If it permits its constitutional guarantees and sacred pledges to be trapped upon and violated, it cannot come into court with clean hands demanding to be maintained in its rights. Honest and patriotic defenders of state rights demand that those prerogatives be properly used; these defenders must not be forced to feel that fight against a law giving the federal government jurisdiction in lynching cases is merely a fight to shield murderers from certain punishment. The State must do its duty. The lynching in Aiken, was, aside from its brutality, peculiarly offensive to county and state. The three persons done to death were actually in custody of the court; during a recess of the court the sheriff was charged with their sufecoeping. It had been determined that on the day following, had the trial been permitted to proceed, the prisoners, if convicted, would have been immediately removed to the Columbia penitentiary? Why? To avoid a lynching. Yet, so far as officers have revealed, there was no fear of a lynching the night after the court had directed a verdict of "not guilty" in the case of one of the men previously convicted. Two determined guards in the jail could have prevented a crime against county and state, but they were not there. When the sheriff, summoned by the jailer, arrived at the jail—coming alone—the jailer opened the steel door to let him in, when members of the mob suddenly appeared, followed him in, seized both sheriff and jailer, and held them till others secured the prisoners. The sheriff fires his pistol twice, but without reported damage, except to a window glass. Decidedly, anglorious day for South Carolina's majestic law! Saturday, October 16, 1926 The Approaching Congressional Elections COURTEOUS SOUTHERN NEGROES The congressional election will take place in less than a month's time. There are no clearly defined issues before the electorate. The party that is in power is making a desperate effort to retain the reins of government, while the party out of power is making an equally desperate effort to snatch the reins from the adversary. PETER B. Where no real issues exist fictitious ones must be fabricated. The watchword of the administration is economy, but there is no division of sentiment here. Every American citizen approves the utmost economy in the administration of the government that is consistent with efficiency. Every body praises Mr. Coolidge for his economy program, but can find no basis of partisan advantage in this. The two parties are so hopelessly split on the League of Nations that it no longer forms a decisive issue. Even the World Court was put over by a bi-partisan vote. The tariff no longer divides the parties in fierce hostile array as it was want to do in the days of James G. Blaine and Grover Cleveland. The Democratic cry of two years age—"turn the cals out"—like the spearmint on the bed post, has lost its flavor. The ku klux klan split the Democratic party in twain during the last presidential campaign, while the Republicans held their acquiescent peace and accepted their votes. But now the klan, of which it is of out of jail, has so honeycombed both parties that neither can point the finger of scorn at the other. * * * John Barleycorn seems to be the only factor that is left that arouses enough passionate interest to furnish a political issue. On all other great questions of public policy, it seems that the American people have all but reached a common mind. One might as well determine his party support by the tossing of a penny. The politicians have seized upon on the lively passion engendered by the prohibition discussion and fabricated it into a partisan issue. One interestingly recalls the famous remark of General Hancock, that "the tariff is a local issue." He was laughed off the political stage for the maladroitness of this remark. However, I think that every politician in the country will agree that prohibition is a local political issue. The Eighteenth Amendment was passed as a war measure. Both parties united in its adoption without one thought of partisan division or advantage. Those who voted for it had little enthusiasm for either the practical or the moral effect of the amendment. It was merely good form to advocate the measure at the time of its passage. But after several years of partial failure, the politicians are seeking to turn it into a political issue. There is little depth of conviction on either side. The crafty politician seeks to align his party on the side of the controversy that will secure the most votes. Geography is mainly the determining factor. The South is dry. So is the West. This is because these sections are mainly agricultural in character. The North and Middle West are generally wet. In other terms, the country is dry and the cities are wet. Temperature is the only moral issue in which the South has taken the lead in two gener- From the (N. Y.) Herald-Tribune A White Woman's Experience in Arkansas and North Carolina. My attention has been called to the statement made by Thelma Cuddin in your issue of September 11 that white women in the South dare not go unarmed out of calling distance from their homes for fear of Negro attack. I am a white woman. I have spent twelve years in the South, and should like to give a little personal experience that bears on this subject. Nine of the twelve years were spent in Miller county, in the southwestern corner of Arkansas, a few miles from Texarkana. Here I taught in three different rural schools and was acquainted with the families of my pupils in each of the three districts. As a good teacher should, I tried to know these people thoroughly and to be in harmony with them. Their ideas in regard to Negro people I accepted very readily, realizing that I had no personal knowledge of them. Yet I frequently walked a mile or more, unarmed and unattend- Dr. Kelly Miller sees the approaching of the congressional elections with no great outstanding issue before the electorate. He says one might as well determine his partisanship by the toss of a penny, since the principles have now for parties have now so much common and so little in division. Says Dr. Miller of the Republician party: "It has maneuvered itself on the unethical side of most of the great issues before the nation. It denies self government to the Phillipines. It opposed the League of Nations. It certainly cut a sorry figure in the awful charges of scandal and corruption in which the Government was involved two or three years ago. The grand old party has gained the political strength and support, of the Ku Klux Klan by, ploughing with its heifer. It has willingly yielded the moral advantage which gave it birth in the advocacy of the rights of the Negro." ations. This is due to the fact that it is an agricultural section and that it is still further complicated by the presence of two races. The open saloon arouses the worst passion of the worst element of both races and makes any harmony all but impossible. It is to be noted that the decline in lynching is synchronous with the operation of the Eighteenth Amendment. There is perhaps not a politician in the Republican party, on the head to the foot, who has any fixed conviction on the matter of prohibition as a clear cut moral issue or a sound political policy. Several Democratic leaders, who have been brought up and nourished on the unrestricted right of drink, at least seem to be consistent in their ardent advocacy of the modification or rescindment of the prohibition provision. --- One can recall that by slip the tongue, the phrase—"rum, Romanism and rebellion"—caused a famous statesman the presidency. The Republican party has always been the passive sponsors of temperance, while the Democratic party has stubbornly fought tumultuous laws as being in restraint of local and personal liberty. But today, it is only the city contingent of the democracy that is wet, while the rural contingent is dry. On the other hand the Republican party has about the same attitude on prohibition as it has on the ku klux klan. The grand old party has become morally bankrupt. It has allowed itself to be maneuvered on the unethical side of most of the great issues before the nation. It denies self-government to the Phillipine Islands. It opposed the League of Nations, the great moral adjustment of the international adjustment of the world's affairs. It certainly cut a sorry figure in the awful charges of scandal and corruption in which the government was involved two or three years ago. The grand old party has gained the political strength and support of the ku klux klan by ploughing with its heifer. It has willingly yielded the moral advantage which gave it birth in the advocacy of the rights of the Negro. It has raped the little sister Republic of Haiti. And now it is dilly-dillying with the great moral issue of temperance. O for the voice of a Charles Summer pointing out to the country the only basis for the true grandeur of nations and of parties; or for a George F. Hour to admonish that righteousness exalteth a nation or a party and that sin is a reproach to all who practice it. ed, along country roads without any fear whatever of Negro attack, and I know that the women of those Southern white families with whom I was acquainted did the same thing. More recently I lived for three years in Asheville, N. C. Here I began trying to understand the Negro people—interested, as any thoughtful person who thinks on the subject at all must be, in the great progress these people have made in a very few years of indifferent opportunity. I made the acquaintance of the secretary of the Negro branch of the Y. M. C. A. and of the editor of the local Negro newspaper. I was informed of concerts and lectures given by and for colored people and sometimes attended them alone and unarmed and without fear. Moreover, my friends (white women in the South) knew that I did so and had no fear for me. Some of these entertainments were held in the auditorium of the Negro Y. M. C. A., in Eagle street populated by colored people; some in the auditorium of By KELLY MILLER The Negro has dropped out completely as a political factor. The only reference which I have found in any state platform to the rights of the rapi is in that of the Democratic party of Massachusetts, which goes on record as opposing segregation of Negro employees of the government in the departments at Washington. The Negro, as such, has very little from which to choose. His only salvation consists in standing by the rightful principle of the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment along with that of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth and all other constitutional provisions. The Negro voter will best decide in favor of persons and principles rather than by party. But in all cases he should stand for temperance and law. Indeed with the Negro politics is a local issue. I see that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has advised colored voters to vote for those semenorial candidates who are in favor of the Dyer bill. Just why that good advice should be limited to candidates for the Senate I am at a loss to understand. If this bill or any other similar measure is to become a law, it must be passed by the House as well as by the Senate. It would be useless to commit every senator to this measure, if a majority of the House are not likewise committed to the same effect. We recall that this bill actually was pushed through the House in a previous Congress but failed ignominiously in the Senate. It might likewise pass the Senate and fail in the House. Indeed the party in power often plays politics with a given measure. It keeps the promise by passing a cherished measure through one house and breaks it by pigeon-holing it in the other. The two houses often pass the knowing wink. Nor need we take it for granted that because this bill at one time passed the House that it will be easy to do so again. If it is advisable for the race at this time to focus on the Dyer bill, the advice of the N. A. A. C. P. should be broadened. The Negro voter should query every candidate of both parties as to how he stands on this measure, and adjust his vote accordingly. I am sure that the N. A. A. C. P. will welcome this amendment to the proposition which it has sent out to the Negro voters of the country. * * * But aside from this bill calculated to prevent lynching, I am strongly of the judgment that the proper alignment on the side of law and order will bring great advantage to the race in the long run. It is hard to conceive how any self respecting intelligent Negro can allow himself, under any compliance, to be arrayed against the enforcement of the Constitution of the United States, in any of its parts or provisions. Let the Negro at least, uphold the law, to which he looks for salvation, although both Republicans and Democrats may deviate and dilly-dilly with the Constitution for temporary partisan advantage.

Stevens-Loe, the Negro high school, on a very pretty hill but in a Negro and consequently an unpaved and poorly lighted district—a spot inaccessible on a rainy night to car or taxi. I remember one such night when I was obliged to inquire the way, and Negro people who did not know me and whom I did not know courtly piloted me thru mud and darkness. I never received from a Negro man or woman anything but the most perfectly courteous treatment, but I learned from the colored maids of the friend with whom I lived of a situation for which I wish we might find a remedy. These colored women are afraid to go on the streets alone after dark for fear of attack by white men. Most of the maids go home at night. They believe that they do not have as good police protection as do white women, and go home in groups. It seems to me that it is the colored, not the white, women of the South for whose safety we should be concerned. CARRIE K. BATTLET, M.D. Chicago, Ill., Sept. 30, 1926.
