Dr. John Edmund Wood Fires Broad Side, Using Thirteen-inch Shells. Danville, Ky.—Declaring that the chartering of the National Baptist Convention was the rock on which the denomination's solidarity was wrecked, and that caused the separation and the breach that has not been healed, and that seems to be widening to the extent that it has become permanent, Dr. John Edmund Wood, the president of the National Baptist Convention, who was elected at Ft. Worth, Texas, last September, has issued an address to the Baptists of the United States, in which he deals with the facts that confront Negro Baptists. Not State Church. He declared that the National Baptist Convention, which meets in Chicago, Illinois, on Sept. 10-15 will put over the biggest program in the history of the denomination. He reviewed the fact that the $60,000 budget set aside at the executive board meeting in Nashville in February would be raised, the Seminary saved, owned and managed by Negroes, and that every plan now advanced would be calculated to move the Baptists onward and upward. He stated that the National Baptist Convention is not a state church, and that the spiritual side of the denomination is being fostered on the New Testament Church basis, and that a voluntary association, a coming together of spiritual leaders and messengers, bearing messages from their congregations is the one real existing aim of the thousands who cling to the majority rule in Baptist bodies. Never Chartered. Dr. Wood is of the opinion, his friends say, that 90 per cent of the Negroes of the United States are building upon a sure foundation, and that the Baptists are not in the rear of this progressive element. He said: "Our National Baptist Convention, the parent body, the original Convention, has never been chartered, and when a movement is chartered it has its birth, and becomes a person, for that is the day it is officially born, especially when a charter is issued." The organization becomes a Body Politic, a person in law, he said. Pioneer Duluth Man Succumbs to Illness After an illness of more than one year's duration, Mr. J. H.

A. A. C. P. GETS TIME REDUCED FOR HOUSTON MARTYR Secretary of War Takes Matter Up With President; Last to Get Clemency. NOW ELIGIBLE FOR RELEASE Because of Transfer to Hospital Case Was Not Reviewed by Board. New York, May 30.—President Coolidge has directed commutation of sentence of John Hudson, former member of the 24th Infantry, serving a life sentence for alleged participation in the Houston riot of 1917, it was announced today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the commutation making the life termer eligible for release this year. The release follows action by the N. A. A. C. P. in behalf of this man, whose case was not reviewed by the board of officers recently appointed, because he had been transferred to a hospital for the insane. He was still in the hospital at the time the clemency board was in session at Leavenworth. Shortly after the officers had finished their work, Hudson was declared sane and transferred back to Leavenworth prison to complete his life sentence. When these facts were brought to the attention of John W. Weeks, Secretary of War, by the N. A. A. C. P., he took the matter up with President Coolidge. As a result the following letter to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has been received from the War Department. "Referring to your letter of the 17th instant, relative to the case of John Hudson, a general prisoner confined at the United States Penitentiary, Leavenworth, Kansas, I am directed by the Secretary of War to inform you that the sentence of confinement of Hudson has, by direction of the President, been reduced from life to twenty (20) years. The Warden of the penitentiary has been so advised." Secretary National Urban League To Speakat MassMeet T. Arnold Hill, Secretary Chicago League, Also on A mass meeting to be held at Pilgrim Baptist church on Thursday evening, June 12, will be addressed by Eugene Knickle Jones, secretary of the National Urban League, the foremost authority in America on social conditions among our group. Eugene Knickle Jones is a native of Richmond, Va., and the son of the late Professor E. T. Jones of Richmond Union University He is himself a graduate of Richmond University at Ithaca, N. Y., where he received the degree of A. M. in social work. Called to the executive position of the Urban League in the year of 1911, he has developed the organization from a single unit in the city of New York to a national organization reaching from the Atlantic to the Pacific and comprising forty-two branches in the large cities of America. Mr. Jones is a forceful and magnetic speaker and an able exponent of the race industry. Mr. T. Arnold Hill, secretary of the Chicago Urban League and well known in St. Paul, where he organized the local branch of the Urban League, will also speak. Mr. Hill will describe the attempt and results of the Urban League efforts to place colored men in the new Ford plant in Chicago. The public is invited.

Such service, as will be beneficial to the public, is a portion of the guarantee made by candidates when they are seeking office. The occasions are often when promises to the public are made with the sole purpose of securing their support. Despite this fact we sometimes find men whose vision is broad and who work for public benefit that fulfill their promises to the people. The platform inaugurated by Mayor Nelson in his campaign for re-election stated that his object was to expedite the efficiency of his administration that St. Paul might be benefited by his regime as Mayor. This promise was not forgotten after election day. Recently an important change was made in the City Council. This change was made to promote a greater city. The bloc recently formed in the City Council did not make the Mayor forget his duty to the people or the promise made them in his campaign addresses. The men who formerly held the positions but will promote the general welfare as pertains to the people. With this change we hope to realize the best administration in the history of this city. There is a duty we owe to our city, as citizens, to contribute our best efforts toward a bigger and better city. In the residential section a menace against welfare of our better citizens and their children has been raging for some time. Vice of various natures, from open selling of moonshine to trafficking in women, has been abundant. The citizens' duty to their community is to see to it that such conditions do not exist. With a splendid department of public safety, lamentable occurrences should be done away with. The splendid plan of the Mayor of our city cannot be worked out without the assistance of the public. As taxpayers and citizens it is necessary that everything concerning the welfare of St. Paul pertains to us. Let us see to it that nothing of our fault will mar the administration so splendidly planned. HIGHER SCHOOLING PAYS BIG DIVIDENDS The wise graduate from the city schools will go to college. He realizes that it is easier to get the preparation for big things in the early years of life than to trust to the future without it. A scramble for a living along with the many is harder than taking the high positions, with their greater preparations. In other words, it is easier to have an ambition and to struggle until it is attained, than to live easy in the beginning and pay the price later. Besides the better opportunity it affords, a college education is a lifting of the curtain which covers the finer things of life. Man is more than food and raiment. He is mind most of all. The treasures which a liberal education afford, excel the gold. College and its good-fellowship, its books, its experiments and its philosophy; is a soul excursion an adventure greater than any other. Every young man and young woman is the better for it. Parents whose children are finishing the ward schools will be remiss in duty if they do not put them through high school. A little reading, a little writing, is not enough any more. A man must think. The places a pair of hands can fill these days are few. Men are paid most for that part of them above the eyebrows.

In these days a group that wants to get anywhere has to organize. The colored people of America realized this fact some years ago, and they formed the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. This organization has just issued its fourteenth annual report dealing with its aims and accomplishments. The report contains a complete record of the Tuskegee hospital controversy, the lynching statistics for 1923, an account of the Supreme Court's decision upholding the fight made by the organization against peonage in Arkansas, records of the struggle against discrimination, segregation, mob rule, the Johnstown deportations, etc. The lynchings, for instance, decreased from 61 in 1922 to 28 in 1923. Undoubtedly the association's activity in behalf of the federal anti-lynching bill was a potent factor in this reduction in the amount of overt savagery. The bill did not pass, but there was much sentiment in its favor—and this fact scared the Southerners into an attempt to voluntarily abolish lynching. If they don't abolish it, such a bill will undoubtedly pass in the future. While resisting injustice, the colored people are improving themselves. Development of the mind and all the higher qualities is most essential for them and for the whites. As both rise in the scale of civilization, the barbarisms of the present will become impossible. Meanwhile, it is true, as the Association says in its message to the people of America, that unless the humblest citizen is guaranteed his rights there can be no security for any one in the land—and race hatred and prejudice are founded on ignorance and oppression, and are dangerous to all citizens, white and black. —The Milwaukee Leader Old-fashion Southern Barbecue on the Elks' ground, Rondo and Mackubin streets, given by Daughter Elks' 1924 Marching Club, Saturday, June 14.

Matson on Job Mr. Matson is a highly trained business executive. The enviable record he made as Commissioner of Public Safety and Commissioner of Finance for the City of Saint Paul led to his appointment as Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner last year. His work since that time has merited the appointment. The exacting nature of his position calls for calm, judicious and experienced judgment. A Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner becomes more valuable to the state with each year's experience through practical contact with the highly technical problems of the department.

"I like to sit up late on nights like this," he continued, pleasantly, as he looked at his watch, on the fob of which I noticed a medal which looked like a war decoration. "Well," I responded, as I eyed the decoration closely and became convinced that it was a Croix de guerre, "since I see you're a war hero, I hope all the nights and the days, too, for that matter, will bring full happiness to you and all the boys who saved our country." "Thanks," he said, in simple sincerity. "I'm particularly happy tonight, for I met one of my old buddies on board, and we had a fine chat, until he was called away, about old times at the front. For it was just this hour,' he continued, pulling his watch, which showed that it was half past nine, "that Jim, thinking I was a German, captured me half a mile beyond the out watch and carried me back to camp as a prisoner, only to find out that I was an American and belonged to his own division. Half an hour after that the German mines, which for some reason had not been fired, went off and blew up the whole section where we had been. We'd both been killed if we'd been there. "But how was it?" I required, "that Jim thought you were a German, and why were you so far away from your company?" "Well, you couldn't tell anybody that evening after the day's engagement, and without my uniform, the best part of which had been torn away, Jim, who had had blood in his eye for all Germans, had sworn to get one more. And when he found me out scouting beyond the lines, he wouldn't believe I was alright until he took me into camp. After that we became warm friends, and saw much of each other very often. And just before the Armistice was declared, I had the pleasure of saving him from an aeroplane bombing which came pretty near getting us all," he concluded, with a hearty laugh. "Well, you and Jim, whoever he is, are O. K. Guess I'll take one more smoke, as Jim might come in and I'd sure like to see him."

Somewhat delayed by the late arrival of the principals in the cast, the Male Wedding given by St. Paul women at Pilgrim Baptist church, however, amply repaid the audience for their patience. This entertainment had been presented before at Union hall, but owing to unfavorable weather many were unable to attend, hence the committee decided to repeat it for their benefit. The entire cast was composed of the male sex. Mr. Charles Miller was extremely comical in his role as minister. Two chubby youngsters were driven in tandem style and preceded the bridal party. The beautiful pillow bearer, Dudley Smith, was attired in white point desprit; Little J. B. Johnson was a dainty flower girl dressed in pink. The bridesmaids, bewitching in their gowns fashioned of crepe paper in honey-dew, poudre blue, lanvin green, American beauty, orchid, yellow, coral and pink with large picture hats to match, were Messrs. Lyle Jackson, James Combs, Tom Neal, W. Flood, Elmér Carter, Dick Chapman, Dr. L. R. Hill, Dudley Smith, Henry High; Stanley Bradshaw, Woodford Mills and Maurice McGavock were flower girls. Mrs. Alimony (Arthur V. Hall) wanted all the money and interrupted the ceremony by rushing up the aisle with a constable. The blushing bride was Attorney W. T. Francis, gowned in white with veil and court train, who sadly sang "Good-bye Forever" when the groom was kidnapped. Madame Florence Cole Talbert (Robert Minor), gowned in Canary satin, rendered a solo. The affair was quite unique and evoked much merriment.

RTHERN PERMANENT, CITIZEN OF COMMUNITY GREAT NORTHERN ACTIVE CITIZEN GREAT NORTHERN PERMANENT ACTIVE CITIZEN OF COMMUNITY GREAT NORTHERN PERMANENT ACTIVE CITIZEN OF COMMUNITY St. Paul, June 6.—That the million of dollars paid out for taxes, salaries, wages, materials and supplies by the Great Northern Railway Company every year, make this pioneer railroad of the Northwest one of the most important citizens of the communities and states which it serves, between the Mississippi River and the Pacific Coast, was emphasized in a statement by executives here today. By reason of the immense sums which the Great Northern expends on payrolls, in the purchase of supplies and materials and to meet taxes, the railroad contributes in a very large way to the business activity of the cities and towns, not only on its lines, but elsewhere in the states in which it has trackage and other properties. Since its birth, sixty-two years ago, the Great Northern has played a leading role in the development of the Northwest, its enormous expenditures, directly aiding the business activity of the territory it serves, being one of the outstanding evidences of its good citizenship. Taxes paid by the Great Northern, in 1923, totaled $9,113,226. Material and supplies required an additional expenditure of $56,662,850, every dollar of which, so far as practicable, was expended in Great Northern territory to support local industry; and following is a statement showing by No Segregation As All St. Louis Aids in BigDrive Colored Citizens Pledge Over $125,000 as Share in Y.

First, the Colored Citizens were an integral part of a big city-wide effort. There was no Negro quota assigned, but instead, the Negro citizens were asked to join with all of the citizens of St. Louis in raising three million dollars to meet the common needs of the city. From the very first committee meetings, our group was represented. There were members of our group on the executive committee, on the big gifts committee, and other functioning committees of the campaign as a whole.

New York.—The Harry Wills-Bartley Madden heavyweight encounter, blocked for a variety of reasons here and in Newark since last February, may not be held, as planned, next Monday night at the Queensboro stadium, despite the thirty days' permit granted the arena by the Board of Standards and Appeals, in reversing the Fire department's condemnation order. George E. Brower, chairman of the State Athletic Commission, said no license would be granted until the fire department indorsed the arena permit. Members of the Board of Standards and Appeals, however, insisted such indorsement was not necessary and pointed out that the delay evidently was caused by failure of the boxing solons to get a copy of the resolution approving the arena. This, they said, would not be in the hands of the commission until next Tuesday, so that another postponement of the bout seems inevitable. PLAN HOME IN ST.
