WOMAN MURDERED BY CAFE OWNER Established To Secure Justice and Equality to All VOLUME III. NO. 19 GEORGE E. LEACH STATE CANDIDATE FIGHTS FOR RACE GEORGE E. LEACH STATE CANDIDATE FIGHTS FOR RACE Combats Ku Klux Klan in Face of Tremendous Political Opposition. The people of our race do not always enjoy the knowledge of having a man in office who is fair. We know that George Leach is a fighter for our people. In the face of tremendous political opposition he has combated the Ku Klux Klan. Thus while Mayor of Minneapolis, a city which is predominately protestant, Leach does not believe in bringing religion up as an issue in a political campaign, and is not doing so at this time. We, however, who know how he fought for religious freedom against the atrocious workings of the Klan, appreciate what he has done. We want a man of his caliber for governor. Leach for Governor Headquarters, opened up in the Ryan Hotel recently, are real optimistic as to the results of the primary election. Mr. H. B. Klaus is in charge of the Ramsey County Campaign. Mr. Klaus, speaking to a group of campaign workers yesterday, in explanation of this optimism, said in part: "There are several reasons why we should be confident of the results of the primary election June 16. First, we know that Geo. E. Leach has made a wonderful record as Mayor of the City of Minneapolis. At the last city election he received the largest majority ever given a candidate for that office. He carried every labor ward in the city except one. Surely, it is an evidence of fairness and ability on his part that he was indorsed by labor, by business men and ex-service men. His efforts on behalf of starving German children has also won him much praise. There is no question of the fact that war veterans generally are behind his candidacy. Reports from all over the state prove this." A big St. Paul demonstration is in store for him on Friday of this week. Mayor Leach will be met on University avenue at the city limits by delegates representing practically every district in the state. Two drum corps and a band will join the process at Rice and University and he will be escorted to the Marquette room of the Ryan Hotel, where an informal reception will be held. Col. Leach will address the meeting after Gerald V. Barron, part state commander of the American Legion, has given his indorsement. Another reason for optimism in Ramsey County is the fact that Leach has a good record with labor and ex-service men. These two elements will go a long way toward nominating the standard bearers on June 16th.

Choosing her birthday as the day of her marriage, Miss Georgia Leona Bell, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Bell, 305 N. Chatsworth street, became the bride of Franklin Morris, son of Mrs. Frank Morris of Watseka, Ill., Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock at the home of her parents. Preceding the ceremony, Mrs. Genevieve Ford Douglass sweetly sang "Love, Here Is My Heart," and "Who Knows," at the close, accompanied by Mrs. Dudley Smith, sister of the bride, at the piano. Before a beautiful bower of lilacs and bridal wreath which served as a background, the marriage vows were exchanged. Rev. H. L. P. Jones of St. James' A. M. E. church performed the ceremony. Promptly at 8 o'clock as the bridal chorus from Lohengrin was played by Mrs. Dudley Smith, the bride's only attendant; her life-long friend, Miss Lucille Howell, entered as bridesmaid, Miss Howell was gowned in a dainty creation of sunset crepe de chine, fashioned on straight lines with round neck and puffed sleeves, tiers of nuns tucks encircling the skirt. Loops of metallic ribbon intermingled with orchid shades formed a rosette on one side. She carried a shower bouquet of Marcheneil roses and sweet peas, tied with pink streamers of tulle. The bride entered alone, but was met at the altar by her father, who gave her away in marriage. She was a picture of loveliness in an exquisite gown of ivory crepe de chine over Duchese satin, made on simple lines, with round neck and three-quarter length sleeves. A deep front panel of crepe de chene was draped over the foundation of white satin and caught at the waist line with an ornamental buckle of crystal beads. Her long veil of tulle was worn cap fashion with coronet band of rose point lace. She carried a shower bouquet of bride's roses, sweet peas and lilies of the valley. The groom, with his best man, Mr. Dudley Smith, met the bride at the altar. Both were attired in the regulation dress suit. After the ceremony the happy (Continued on page 4) MINNEAPOLIS PIONEER DIES AT HOSPITAL Mr. Benj.

Thomas Schall The members of the N. A. A. C. P. have an opportunity to show their appreciation of the services of Cong. Thomas Schall. As a member of its legislative committee and as an ardent supporter of the Dyer anti-lynching bill, he led the fight for that bill in the rules committee, which caused it to be reported upon the floor of the House, where it was passed last session and killed in the Senate. Cong. L. C. Dyer, the author of the bill, on a recent visit to Minneapolis, urged the election of Cong. Schall to the U. S. Senate. Thomas Schall is serving his fifth consecutive term in Congress. He has been an active member of the N. A. A. C. P., has approved its policies and fought every form of racial discrimination, and caused the Federal investigation of the East St. Louis riots. He is the true and tried friend of the colored group among the Republican candidates for U. S. Senator. He solicits and deserves the votes of of all progressive citizens in the primaries on June 16.

LAYS OFF FROM WORK TO COMMIT CRIME The exclusive residential section of the South Side in Minneapolis was thrown into an uproar Tuesday shortly after 10:30 A.M. when Mrs. Calvin Mason, 3629 Columbia avenue, was brutally murdered by John Robinson, 3713 Clinton avenue, one of the proprietors of the R. & T. Cafe, 3750 Fourth avenue south. Mrs. Mason was alone when the tragedy occurred, her husband having gone over on the North Side to visit a friend. Several white neighbors were eye witnesses. Three shots were fired by Robinson, each one striking Mrs. Mason in the chest. After firing the third shot he pointed the revolver at a white neighbor, who had rushed to Mrs. Mason's side. Fearing further disaster, the neighbor dodged, expecting to be hot by the bullet. He tenderly picked up Mrs. Mason in his arms and carried her into his home. After pulling the trigger, Robinson discovered the barrel of the revolver was empty, so tossed the revolver into a nearby yard, walked toward the alley, thence over to Chicago avenue, where he hailed a bread wagon and asked to be taken as far as Lake street, stating that he was on his way to St. Paul. A few minutes after the crime, police and gun squad were on the scene. The entire district has been searched but up to the present time no trace has been found of the murderer. It is the belief of many that Robinson has probably boarded a freight train or committed suicide by jumping in the river. Principals in Robinson-Mason Murder Tragedy The principals in the Robinson-Mason tragedy were well known in the Twin Cities and Topeka, Kan. Mrs. Mason was the wife of Mr. Calvin Mason, an observation car porter on the Northwestern railroad, running between Minneapolis and Omaha. Before her marriage, Mrs. Mason was Mary Woolridge of Topeka, Kan., having resided there before moving to Minneapolis. She was highly respected in the community in which she lived for the past thirteen years. Mrs. Mason is survived by her husband and little son Claude, 7 years old, a mother and sister, all living in Minneapolis. She was a charter member of Minneaha Temple, Daughter Elks No. 129, held office as the chapplain of the order and was streasurer at the time of her death. She was also a member of Electa Chapter No. 96, O. E. S., and James Francis Rickard Assembly No. 21, St. Paul. Funeral services were held Thursday from the chapel of W. Squire Neal, under the auspices of Electa Chapter No. 96. Rev. H. C. Boyd preached the funeral sermon. Former Resident of St. Paul. The murderer, John Robinson, was born in Minneapolis and spent part of his time in St. Paul. He conducted a grocery and confectionery store at Rondo and Western avenue, known as the Busy Corner. He later sold this business and opened another confectionery at Arundle and Rondo. Robinson had been employed in various hotels in Minneapolis as a waiter. About a year ago he embarked in the catering business on 4th avenue south. Owing to inadequate space, he moved to 3750 4th avenue south, entering into partnership with Pitt Thompson. Together they conducted the R. and T. Cafe. Robinson resided with his wife at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. McKenzie, 3713 Clinton avenue.

Mrs. Mason was engaged in the family washing when she received a telephone call from a man asking if her husband was at home. Replying in the negative, the party at the other end of the line hung up without revealing his identity. Somewhat perplexed, Mrs. Mason decided to call her husband, who had gone to visit a Mr. Hawkins on the North Side. She asked him to hurry home, as she had received a mysterious phone call. Before she had time to get away from the phone Mrs. Mason heard footsteps in the house. She ran out into the yard, telling a neighbor, Mrs. Arthur Burns, 3635 Columbus avenue, that there was a man in her house and asked her if she would notify the police. In the midst of the conversation the man whom Mrs. Mason recognized as John Robinson approached her, saying: "Come here, Mary, I want to talk to you. Don't be afraid." Mrs. Mason said: "Go away, John, and don't bother me." She then turned her back and continued the conversation. Angered evidently by her refusal to talk to him, he pulled out the revolver, firing three times. Death was instantaneous. Seeing a neighbor rush to Mrs. Mason as she fell to the ground, Robinson again pulled the trigger. Only the fact that the revolver contained three bullets probably prevented Robinson from running amuck and killing those who had come to her assistance. Murderer Escapes. During the excitement that ensued, Robinson made his getaway through the alley. Reaching Chicago avenue, he hailed a passing bread wagon, recognizing the driver as one who made daily deliveries to his restaurant. Robinson told him he was going to St. Paul and asked to be driven as far as Lake street. The driver consented, not knowing until afterward that Robinson was the perpetrator of such a dastardly erime. In making his daily trip to Robinson's Cafe later in the day, the driver was informed that a murder had been committed by Robinson. The driver then told how he had driven him as far as Lake street. Police arrived on the scene and a general description of the murderer was given. Up to the present time he has not yet been apprehended. On the day of the murder, Robinson was on duty at The Curtis Hotel. Shortly before 10 o'clock he complained of being ill and supposedly left for his home. The excuse was merely a subterfuge, for according to the time of the crime, Robinson must have gone direct to the Mason home.

The National Convention of the great Republican Party is now in session at Cleveland. Gathered in the great auditorium is the bone and sinew of the present administration. Coolidge will be nominated for President and the only contest will be the choice of the Vice-President. Our interest in the convention is concerned with the question, “What will they do for the Negro?” Our so- called leaders are there. Great interests of far-reaching importance to the future of the race are at stake. No greater test of leader- ship has ever been offered to the group than is offered to those who represent us at Cleveland. | What will they do? Will they barter for cheap jobs for one or two men at the expense of the well being of the race? Will they spend their time attempting to line up certain factions for some sinecure; some job of questionable merit while the race suf- fers from lack of opportunity to work out its political and social and economic destiny unhampered by the subtle menace of dis- crimination, unrestrained by the lawlessness, unimpeded by fake but high sounding promises. Today all over the land thousands of colored boys and girls stand at the gates of hundreds of institutions of learning ready to go out into the world. What will they do? The avenues of employment are being steadily closed. The opportunity to work at any mental occupa- tions is denied only the specially favored. The great mass of our youth stand ready. But the chance is not there. Great masses of press matter has been broadcasted concerning the preparations for social entertainment of the delegates at Cleveland. But the ques- tion still remains, what will they do? Meeting Is Held ForElks Election On Wednesday evening, June 11, at Union hall, Gopher Lodge No. 105, 1. B. P. O. F.

Welcome Is Planned for the League Here Chicago, Il.—In discussing plan: for the forthcoming celebration of the “silver jubilee” and the 25th annual meeting of the National Negro Busi: ness league, which will be held in this city, August 20,21 and 22. Dr. Rob- ert R. Morton, president, stated that one entire session of the meeting will be turned over to the “league found. ers.” Some of those who attended the meeting at Boston, Mass, 25 years ago, have since passed away but there are yet many alive and still ac- tive In business and who have follow. ed the fortunes of the league from its beginning. This special session will afford them a splendid opportu- nity to hold a sort of a reunton. Rem- iniscences, tributes to the league's de- parted leadef and other appropriate features will compose the program of this special session. Chicago Is Preparing. Chieago is preparing to give the delegates to the meeting a royal re- ception. Letters from the officials of the Associated Business club, whfth will act as host to the league this year, convey that information. Rob- ert S. Abbott, president of the club and editor of The Chicago Defender, writes: “The enthusiasm with which the members of our elub are taking hold of the preliminary work for the entertainment of the league is most encouraging.” Jesse Binga, president of the Binga State bank and secretary of the Asso- elated Business club, says: “We are arranging to hold the sessions in the Wendell Phillips high school and all of the details of the local program are being worked through our com- mittees.”” Claude A. Barnett, director of the Associated Negro Press and transpor- tation agent of the National Negro Business league. announces that he is bending every effort to secure the lowest rates and best service possible on all roads coming into Chicago.” Don't Let Your Money Lie Idle Around the House Deposit It On a SAVINGS ACCOUNT at THE STATE SAVINGS BANK 93 E.

DEFECTIVE PAGE Timely Topics Efficiency Experts Wanted (Afro-American) Recent upheavals in the colored business world and a study of many of the newly formed projects emphasize the fact that the younger generation of well trained business experts, those trained specifically for business careers, are not being sufficiently absorbed into business life. When you look at the directorate of most of the big business concerns of the race you cannot but be appalled at the fact that most of them are not business men at all, but men who have made their marks in the professions and other lines of endeavor. They are most apt to be ministers whose names carry weight in the community or professional men selected because they were successful in their lines. Colored business had to start this way, and we should never forget these pioneering men and women who blazed the trail. If modern business among colored people is to succeed, it must adopt the same modern policies and methods used by all business concerns in this country with which it must compete. Another defect of business endeavor is to have it completely dominated by any man who is not broad enough to distribute its work properly among others well trained in details. The successful big man is the one able to gather around him able lieutenants and here is where the host of young men and women coming from our schools with specific business training should be utilized. Successful business ventures must pass through the lives of several generations and many failures would be prevented by taking into the concerns able and well trained men who could take up the work where the veterans leave off. Investors are not going to continue to subsidize Negro business with wasteful losses, and the quicker the business group adopts the soundest and most efficient procedure, the better. USES KNIFE ON FRIEND; ON TRIAL FOR ASSAULT Charges and counter charges flew thick and fast in Judge Lewis' court this morning, where Willy Black is on trial for second degree assault. Black is accused of cutting his former friend, Leon May, with a knife, in an argument over the affections of Hester Williams, 169 E. Fairfield avenue. It is alleged that on the morning of May 12, Mr. May entered Hester Williams' room and insisted that she go to his room. On her refusal to do so, Mr. May lost his temper and slapped the young lady and according to May's testimony, the young woman got loud and called the police, who escorted May to the street. Mr. Black, one of Hester Williams' roomers, met May on the corner later in the day and they went back to the house, where Black remonstrated with May for his striking Miss Williams. In the struggle that followed, May was cut by Black several times, but succeeded in sinking his teeth in his opponent's nose.

SAVE and Invest Your Money With "Safety of Principal" as Your First Consideration Compounded Profite—Second You have heard of a few cases where men got wealthy over night, but where there is one quickly acquired fortune there are a thousand that were accumulated by steady plugging. There is no miracle of wealth. It is attained gradually, and you can make the greatest financial progress by putting your saving and investing on a systematic basis. This is the sure way, and the feeling of safety that it brings you will add a lot to the joy of life. The CONTINENTAL "Saving and Investment Plan" is a development of a modern First Mortgage business that makes it possible for you to make regular monthly investments in safe Mortgages, and earn the full interest rate on your money as you pay it in. By this plan you enjoy the same benefits as the cash investor, but what is of even greater importance to you, the plan increases your ability to save money. and it becomes a part of your regular budget. You consider it along with your expenses. It is an obligation to be made but not one that will work a hardship if you find it impossible to keep up. Instead of vaguely wishing going to save a certain sum this year, you go about it systematically. Instead of letting the important queues your money be decided by hitch-hiking put it into your regular budget it systematically. Instead of hoping last dollar of your income—of having left after everything else has been invested the first dollar of your income—see the difference? Of all the experiences you have ever find this the most fascinating. Hold of you and won't let loose. "How does it do this?" you may ask. You may not see at first glance just how an investing plan would increase your savings, but let us see just what your own experience has been. The chances are that you have thought you should save a certain amount each month. You have wanted to do it and you have expected to do it, but the fact is that you actually haven't done it. Month after month rolls by and you find yourself far short of realizing your hopes. We help you reach your financial objective. The reason you are not reaching it now is because you have no plan and no obligation. You are only wishing to save a certain amount, and this accomplishes about as much as wishing for anything else. We provide you both the plan and the obligation. You decide how much you ought to save monthly, and then you take out installment shares, calling for that amount each month. When this is done, you have entered into an obligation to save what you know you can save. Gentlemen: Without any obligation on my part, your representative may call and explain fully the opportunity to accumulate "sizable wealth" by becoming a member of the Continental. I understand that for mailing this coupon I will receive $1.00 in cash applied to my first monthly savings if I become a member. --- WOMAN MURDERED ONE DOLLAR $1 ONE DOLLAR and it becomes a part of your regular monthly budget. You consider it along with your monthly expenses. It is an obligation to be met regularly, but not one that will work a hardship upon you if you find it impossible to keep up your payments. Instead of vaguely wishing that you are going to save a certain sum this month or this year, you go about it systematically and do it. Instead of letting the important question of saving your money be decided by hit-or-miss, you thus put it into your regular budget and control it systematically. Instead of hoping to save the last dollar of your income—of having something left after everything else has been bought—you invest the first dollar of your income. Do you see the difference? Of all the experiences you have ever had, you will find this the most fascinating. It gets right hold of you and won't let loose. To feel yourself getting ahead every month, instead of one disappointment after another—well, there just isn't anything to compare with it. To "save and invest" systematically, instead of letting your money slip away for nonessentials, is an experience that brings you a genuine thrill. It is the ideal form of investment. Backed by security that is constantly growing in value, paying the highest yield possible without hazard and requiring no thought or attention except to make your payments at a convenient bank—you get in CONTINENTAL a sense of safety and satisfaction that you will surely appreciate. Real Estate values in St. Paul are on a stable basis. No property could be more desirable as security for a loan—not only on a basis of value, but on a basis of earning power; the latter is fully as important as the former. People in all parts of the country and in all walks of life invest in Building and Loan. East, west, north, south, in big cities and little—all see the advantages of having an investment that needs no watching.
