RACE TURNS TO CATHOLIC FOR RELIEF
FORTY-FIRST YEAR NO.17
KLAN BOOKS ON CHURCH STEPS NO TERROR TO PRIEST
Father Wm. Regnat Returns Answer That Was Tribute to His Christianity.
Rev. William Regnat, new pastor of St. Benedict's Catholic Church, Greensboro, N. C., evidenced marked coolness and returned an answer that was a tribute to his Christianity when members of the Ku Klux Klan placed on the steps of his church pamphlets, "Why I Am a Klausman," on the night of July 13. Rev. Regnat, finding the pamphlets when he went to celebrate mass the following morning forthwith issued this statement:
"Whilst I invite and appreciate any form of enlightenment on the civic and patriotic duties of a low per cent of blue-blooded Americans," he stated. "I consider the time and method rather inconvenient since my invisible callers chose for their friendly visit the dark hours of the night which as a tired and peaceful citizen I am accustomed to spend in deep slumber. This circumstance also deprived me of the pleasure of retaliating in kind by offering to return enlightening pamphlets of our own, for instance, about the Knights of Columbus and their record-breaking work during the World War when Uncle Sam was looking for sure enough patrols of the visible and tangible type.
Would like to Meet them.
"I would consider it a real pleasure to meet my well meaning midnight visitors face to face in broad daylight for a hearty handclasp and brotherly exchange of views and opinions which might prove enlightening to both sides.
"According to physical laws a strong light cast upon an object casts a shadow. If we could get together and throw light on both sides of the question, no doubt the shadow of misunderstanding would disappear and a common basis could be formed to work hand in hand for the great object both sides have at heart; a stronger, finer, greater and better America, a more firmly United States."
C. W. PFIFER SPEAKER ON
ATTUCKS HOME PROGRAM
The committee of the Crispus Attucks Home program was very fortunate in securing the services of Mr. C. Whit Piffer, general secretary of the Community Chest, as its principal speaker for August 9. Mr. Piffer has been quite anxious for some time to give to the colored people as a whole an idea as to the value of their contributions to the Community Chest. We are sure that all of the people will be interested in Mr. Piffer's speech, as it is the first one of its kind made to our group. An octette from Pilgrim Baptist Church will furnish the music for this occasion, and each of the ministers from the different churches will also be asked to aid in making this program a success. Remember the date, August 9.
GOLDEN VALLEY LEAGUE
RE-ARRANGE SCHEDULE
Through the withdrawal of the North St. Paul and the St. Paul Park clubs from the Golden Valley League it has been decided by the league officials to continue the season with the four remaining clubs. The Uptown Sanitary team has been assigned to St. Paul Park, which will be its home grounds. The Sanitarys will play three of the five remaining games at St. Paul Park. The season will close August 30.
The first game under the new arrangement will be played Sunday, August 2, at St. Paul Park, between the Sanitarys and the South St. Pauls. The latter is the leader in the second series of the season and is a strong organization. The game will be called at 3 o'clock sharp. Make it a point to be there, fans, and put pep in the sport. It will be worth while.
Eva B. Walker Graduates With Honor From MacPhail School
The Twin Cities have attained a high standing as a cultural center. Among the many schools of learning in this vicinity are several devoted to the Fine Arts. Nothing has done more to bring fame and glory to this section than the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. Through the influence of this excellent organization a love for dramatic music has been created. Surrounded by the scenic beauty of natural lakes and woodland the natives of this state in consciousness dwell in a land of dreams and play games with elves and faries. One of the most notable schools in the country is the MacPhail School of Music, Minneapolis. Its high rep-

utation has added to the lustre of the Northwest which fosters it. Its faculty is composed of department heads whose mastery is acknowledged. One of the recent graduates of the MacPhall School of Music is Miss Eva B. Walker, Minneapolis. Miss Walker graduated in June and was one of the two honor students in a large class. She was awarded a prize for high standing in the Dramatic Art Course on all subjects.
Miss Walker contemplates a career as a teacher of expression and elocution, as well also as a public reader, for which she has a most pleasing personality. The following testimonials bespeak of her fine talent as a platform entertainer:
Miss Eva B. Walker has won an unique place among the dramatic artists of Minneapolis. Her appearance upon a program invariably brings a number of requests for return engagements. She has the power to instil her words with a depth of feeling that always meets a grateful response in her listeners.
A diligent student, taking advantage of every opportunity to better herself, Miss Walker is without question one of the most gifted students in the graduating class of 1925.
I can confidently recommend her both as a teacher and platform reader, knowing that she will give the utmost satisfaction.
WILLIAM MacPHAIL, Pres.,
To Whom It May Concern:
I have watched with continued and interesting interest the progress and advancement of Miss Eva B. Walker, recent graduate of the MacPhail School of Dramatic Art, Minneapolis, Minn.
I cannot remember a single instance of failing to hear her when opportunity was present; to hear her once is to long to hear her again and again.
I regard her as one of the most polished and entertaining artists of her times.
We, of the Northwest, think that to hear her is not only a pleasure, but a privilege.

ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 1925
To Whom It May Concern:
I have heard Miss Eva Walker give some of her readings, and have been greatly pleased with them. She provides a well selected program which is both moving and entertaining. I know her to be a talented and cultured Christian lady, and am satisfied that she will not offer her services in any quarter where she cannot give complete satisfaction.
EDWARD F. WAITE,
Judge District Court,

Minneapolis, Minn.,
July 24, 1925.
To Whom It May Concern:
It gives me a great deal of pleasure to recommend Miss Eva Walker of 3625 4th Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minn., as teacher of Dramatics. Miss Walker graduated from MacPhail School of Minneapolis with honors. She most ably directed our Dramatic Department last year, October 1 to June 1, inclusive.
She exhibited unusual ability in handling people, she has a wonderful personality and would be indeed an asset to any faculty. Her interpretation of her many readings is exceptionally good. She gave three readings over WCCO on our program April 15 which were most enjoyable, and received commendation from many throughout the country who had the good fortune to hear her.
W. GERTRUDE BROWN,
Head Resident of
Phyllis Wheatley
To Whom It May Concern:
Miss Eva Walker has read for us at Simpson Church to some of our largest evening audiences where she has had probably two thousand hearers and has made exceptionally good with them. Her modest bearing, her splendid artistry and her good judgment in the choice in selections all combined to make her an entertainer of unusual merit. I commend her most heartily. We intend to use her in other services at Simpson Church this winter because of her very successful appearance last year.
ROY L. SMITH.
I take great pleasure in introducing to the public at large Miss Eva Walker, as one of the best elocutionists and all around dramatic readers in America. She is a graduate of the MacPhail School of Music and Oratory. Miss Walker possesses great natural ability, backed by a splendid education along all dramatic lines, and I am sure that those who fail to hear her wherever she appears will miss a great treat.
JOHN M. ALLISON,
Dept. Dept.
This is to state that it has been my pleasure to hear Miss Eva B. Walker in a number of readings and character sketches, and I have no hesitation whatever in commending her to the consideration 'of all church groups and other organizations that are looking for clean, cultured and wholesome entertainment in the form of readings. Miss Walker is a woman who deserves the best and who will reward any group that provides her an opportunity for service.

Minneapolis has for years been indebted to this young woman for her generous aid in matters artistic. She has coached our young people and enabled them to produce a number of plays that would reflect creditably upon those possessing a much larger experience.

NEGRO HISTORY BOOK ROCKS OKLA. CULTURE
New York, July 31.—Evidence that one small book has rocked Oklahoma civilization to its very foundations has come to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Oklahoma school officials and the local American Legion are in a panic and the gravest apprehensions are felt for the culture of this highly intellectual state.
The offending volume is Dr. Carter G. Woodson's "The Negro in Our History," which was discovered by whites in use in a Negro Manual Training High School of the state.
"Members of the school board," says the Muskogee Daily Phoenix, "after reading it, expressed horror and surprise that such a work should have crept into our Negro schools. All professed ignorance of its existence. C. K. Reiff, who was then acting as Superintendent, ordered all copies confiscated and prohibited its further use.
"The theme of the book," declares the Oklahoma white paper, "is found in one of its full page illustrations, a picture of a 'mixed' jury, half Negro and half white, in the District of Columbia. The picture is captioned 'The New Freedom!'"
The Oklahoma white newspaper then goes on to recite, as follows, the further grievances of Oklahoma's intellectual white lights against Dr. Carter's book:
"The author speaks bitterly of America's treatment of the Negro soldier and condemns the government for frowning upon the intermingling of Negro soldiers and French women. Negro soldiers, it declares, were often more courageous than their 'superior' white officers.
"The closing pages of the book deal with the race war that broke out in Washington, D. C., after the close of the world struggle. The author comments boastingly upon the fact that in the second day of the fighting the Negroes killed more white people than the whites killed Negroes."
Dedicate Church In Georgetown
Washington, D. C., July 31.—Dedicatory services and corner-stone laying of the Epiphany Catholic Church, 27th St. and Dunbarton Ave., were held this week. The Rt. Rev. Mgr. C. F. Thomas of St. Patrick's Church, representing Archbishop Curley, laid the corner-stone, assisted by the Rev. E. J. Lohihan of Baltimore, the Rev. F. M. W. Scheeweiss of Anacostia and the Rev. Walter Reid of St. Cyprians, master of ceremonies.
The Knights of St. John, in charge together with the members of the Holy Name Guild and Ladies of the Auxiliary, marched from the Guild home on 13th St., the Community Center band leading, to the home of Mrs. Eleanor Jackson, 2800 Dunbarton Ave., from which point the procession went to the church. A large number of prominent visiting clergymen were present.
A ten-day building drive for $10,000 has been started by the Rev. Lawrence Schaefer, pastor of the church.
PHYSICIANS ARRAIGNED ON DRUG-SELLING CHARGE
Dr. David Gordon, 307 Medical block, waived preliminary hearing Wednesday when arraigned before United States Commissioner H. D. Irwin on charges of selling narcotics and his case will come up for federal grand jury action in October. Dr. R. J. Carroll Brown, colored, 638 Sixth Ave. No., held on the charge, demanded preliminary hearing, which was set for August 24. Ball was fixed in each case at $3,000 and both men returned to the city jail. They were arrested following complaint of an Illinois youth who told police that the doctors sold him drugs.
Colored Women Whipped, Sent To State Farm Without Trial
New York, July 31.—The following is typical of many of the pathetic letters received at the National Office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The N. A. A. C. P. is strictly observing the request of the writer that she be not involved and is therefore omitting her name and the names of other persons as well as the locality.
"I was informed from some of the people in the North where to write to and that is what I am trying to do. Now Sir, I want to say to you like this: I believe that it is a law in the state for men to be governed by and it looks like to me that the white man might abide by the law, to some anyway. But they don't here.
"Now I am a Negro woman and feel like I need protecting in this state.
"About three weeks ago the white people mob a Negro man here at _____ just because they could. He did not do anything to no one, only ask _____ for his money that he had work for, and the white man call a mob that night and they shot as if there was a war there at _____ and talk about killing all the colored people around there which did not do nor say a word about the killing of the Negro man. And out here on _____ 's place the white men, is just whipping up the colored women and send them to the farm without a trial though they did not do anything but try to protect themselves to keep the agent from whipping them up. And they just taken them up and sent them to the farm. And it is too bad to think how some of these white people is doing the Negro and the Negro is making the white man's living and they treat them like dogs.
Now if there are anything did about the mob of that poor old man don't say to the white people how you knew it for they will kill me too. I live on one of the men's place that was in the mob and he live on the West side of _____ by the name of _____."
Throngs Attend Harris Revival
Messrs. Jones and Penn and Miss White, musicians for the Evangelistic Campaign being conducted in Minneapolis by the Rev. Jos. W. Harris, harmonize in a most pleasing manner the organ, piano and cornet while playing the appealing strains of the Negro National Anthem. The selection is followed by "Onward Christian Soldiers," with a swinging tilt led by Rev. Harris that seems to rock the community in which the campaign is being held. Hundreds of admirers who have heard the sermons delivered by the Evangelist each evening file in with clock-like precision at 8 P. M. and in a very few minutes every available place under the spacious canvas is taken. The entire audience is supplied with books and a song service is conducted for thirty minutes that prepares the great throng with receptive attitudes for the message.
While the musicians play softly and with feeling "Holy Ghost With Light Divine" the congregation is asked to consecrate without persuasion ten cents. The ringing of the dimes while the plates are being passed by the ushers indicates the willingness on the part of the audience to contribute to the furthering of the great cause advocated by Mr. Harris. It seems that while the music is being played with so much feeling every one feels that he must give.
Miss Rachel Hawkins, the splendid Bible Teacher, who is preparing through some special training for missionary work in foreign lands conducted a meeting for the children Tuesday evening at 7:15 which was largely attended by both white and colored. Misses Tanner sang to the delight of all Wednesday evening, "God Is Still on the Throne." The mixed Revival Chorus made a great hit with the audience this week and it is conceded by all that they are getting better.
Large Crowd Attends Sidney Allen Rites
Mr. Sidney Howard Allen, 43 years of age, 301 Rondo St., died Friday morning, July 24, at his residence. Sid Allen, as he was popularly known, was the husband of Bernice Allen, and brother of Mrs. Etta Richardson. Funeral services were held Monday, July 27, from the residence at 2 P. M., and from St. James' A. M. E. Church at 2:15 P. M., Rev. W. H. Griffin officiating, assisted by Rev. C. B. Burton.
The deceased had been a resident of St. Paul for 25 years, having come to St. Paul in 1900 to be with his mother in her last illness, and has resided here ever since. Mr. Allen had been in ill health about a year and a half, and went to California, where he spent the winter months, returning to St. Paul about April 10. Mr. Allen had a large circle of friends, as evidenced by the many and massive floral offerings, said to be one of the most beautiful ever seen in St. Paul. His body was borne to its last resting place in Forest Cemetery by six of his fellow workmen. Funeral under the direction of Aaron McGavock.
Hamlet Rowe's Sister Undergoes Operation
Mrs. Lethia Webb of Chicago, a sister of Mr. Hamlet B. Rowe, is very ill at St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester, Minn., where she was operated upon at the Drs. Mayq Clinic last Monday for stomach trouble. Her mother, Mrs. Benj. L. Rowe, of Richmond, Ind., her husband, Mr. Leroy Webb, of Chicago, and her sister, Mrs. H. B. McMeekin, of Hannibal, Mo., were summoned to her bedside, as she was to be operated upon again last Thursday. Mrs. Chas. Sumner Smith accompanied Mr. Rowe to Rochester last Sunday and remained with Mrs. Webb until Tuesday.
Mrs. H. B. Rowe returned home last Monday from Chicago, where she has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Lizzie Taylor, who was very sick after operations for goitre and cancer, and is now convalescing at her residence, 3630 Grand Boulevard.
Mr. and Mrs. Rowe have received many expressions of sympathy from a host of friends on account of the serious illness of their relatives and many best wishes for their recovery.
Baptist Convention Held at Kansas City
There were 14 delegates from Minnesota, 12 of whom toured to the Western Baptist Convention which met at Kansas City, Kan., July 21-26, returning last Tuesday. Rev. L. W. Harris, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church, and party, included Mrs. L. W. Harris, Mrs. Martha Clayton, Mrs. J. B. Black and Mrs. Martha Diggs, Mrs. L. Perkins and party included Rev. H. C. Parsons, pastor of Bethesda Baptist Church, Mrs. Henry High and Mr. George Sears. Mr. Grant Bush and party included Mrs. Emma Bush, Mrs. Ella Golden. They all report having enjoyed the convention and trip immensely, but that the roads through Missouri could be improved.
ADAM SAYLES DIES;
LAST RITES HELD
Mr. Adam Sayles, aged 63 years, a resident of St. Paul for more than 30 years, died Thursday, July-23, at 170 Eaton St. Services at Forest Cemetery Monday, July 27, Rev. W. H. Griffin officiating. Mrs. Lulu Butler had charge of the funeral, McGavock, funeral director.
Josephine: "So you think that girls were just made to love?"
Josephus: "No; most of them do it of their own accord."

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH GAINS RACE FAVOR
Suggests Possibility of Race Being Forced in Catholic Church.
The Rev. Dr. George L. Cady, distinguished secretary of the American Missionary Association, started a current of thought not heretofore exploited when he raised the question: Will the Negro become Catholic? and at the same time made statements which almost utter a prophecy that he will, on account of Ku Klux Klan persecutions, as reported in a recent issue of the Springfield (Mass.) Union.
Protestant in the Past
Negroes in this country in the past have been overwhelmingly Protestant, but an increasing drift toward Catholicism has been noted among them in late years. Is the Klan policy of branding Negroes, Catholics and Jews as un-American elements bringing this great body of people together in a common sympathy that is manifesting itself in augmenting the Catholic forces with 11 million colored Americans? And is the unChristian attitude of the white Protestant churches in unwelcoming and discriminating against Negroes in their pews, in contrast with the cordial reception accorded colored people in Catholic churches, another factor which is working silently to draw the race from Protestantism to Catholicism? Dr. George L. Cady raises these questions and his explanatory statements are virtually affirmative answers. He says:
"Put yourself in place of the colored man," he says. "This Klan has proscribed you and your race in a demonstration of a white Protestant supremacy. But it has also proscribed the Catholic Church and has drawn a clear line—on the one side white Protestantism and on the other the Catholic Church and with it yourself and your people of black skin. You have neither the time nor the heart to reason—what wonder if you accept the company into which you have been thrust and which holds out to you the arms of a Christian through Catholic fraternity? One wonders just how the Klan statesmen figure out that they are to destroy the power of the Catholic Church by driving into its fields a considerable part of our 11,000,000 Protestant Negroes?"
Contrasts Church Attitude.
Dr. Cady also draws a contrast between the welcome that has been given the colored man entering a Protestant Church and that accorded in the Catholic edifice. "If you enter a Protestant church you, a colored man, rarely find a welcome there, but are usually shown a corner or are placed in the gallery. Again, if you seek a Protestant church you are likely to find a dingy, dilapidated building devoid of paint or ornament. Or perhaps a situation like that in Boston where the Congregationalists, while themselves worshipping in most beautiful edifices, have for a quarter of a century provided for your meetings only a shabby old storeroom. That there are noble exceptions does not minimize the fact that these conditions are found nearly everywhere.
"On the other hand, here stands a Catholic church with a beautiful and ornate ritual, a ceremonialism enriched by procession and glittering robes and a beautiful church building located in the most commanding part of the city. You enter its doors, always open. You are welcome to any part of the house and find yourself for the time being an equal member of a democracy which knows no distinction of race or color. For whatever may be the unapproachable autocracy behind the altar, in the pews of the Catholic church there is the utmost democracy. What may happen there if your race becomes numerous does not concern you; for the present you have found a religion (Continued on page 2)

FLORIDA JUSTICE
Florida Supreme Court recently reversed the case which found Thomas W. Higginbotham guilty of murder and sentenced him to twenty years in prison of Martin Tabert, a youth from North Dakota, dated of vagrancy and sent to a prison camp and was a "whipping boss." Testimony at the trial Florida legislature in 1923 showed that the youth beating a ride on a freight train, convicted of county lumber camp, and that an arrangement with the sheriff of Leon County and the Putnam Lumber by the officer received a commission for each camp. The judge who sentenced Tabert was the deal. Testimony also showed that Higginbotham boss," used a heavy whip which he administered lagged in their work. It was shown that the youth a severe beating shortly before his statement of facts caused the Florida leg of the contract system for convicts and the explaining state and county convicts. This test to the grand jury and caused the return of Higginbotham for first degree murder.
The trial a change of venue was taken from the crime was committed and the prosecution was held the County Attorney of Cavalier County, North Port was born and where his parents resided. After repeated delays, was finally convicted of rape and sentenced to twenty years in prison of attorneys appealed to the higher court within. Higginbotham has been at large since that is now discharged since he has been acquitted from the fetters of the law.
A sample of Southern justice as it is ad valorem prejudice, or the Negro, are involved. Man is seldom guilty, in the eyes of the jury, northern white man. And yet Northern capital coffers of Southern speculators in the prison lands, with mosquitos and malaria there. Had the victim of the whipping boss been guilty would have dismissed the testimony on the evidence to warrant an indictment, and we have a lot of unpleasant notoriety and the expert trial.
The Florida Supreme Court recently reversed the lower court decision which found Thomas W. Higginbotham guilty of second degree murder and sentenced him to twenty years in prison, for the death of Martin Tabert, a youth from North Dakota who had been convicted of vagrancy and sent to a prison camp where Higginbotham was a "whipping boss." Testimony at the investigation before the Florida legislature in 1923 showed that Tabert was arrested for beating a ride on a freight train, convicted and sent to a Dixie County lumber camp, and that an arrangement existed between the sheriff of Leon County and the Putnam Lumber Company whereby the officer received a commission for each prisoner sent to the camp. The judge who sentenced Tabert was also implicated in the deal. Testimony also showed that Higginbotham, the "whipping boss," used a heavy whip which he administered to convicts who lagged in their work. It was shown that Higginbotham gave the youth a severe beating shortly before the latter's death. This statement of facts caused the Florida legislature to abolish both the contract system for convicts and the use of the lash in disciplining state and county convicts. This testimony was presented to the grand jury and caused the return of an indictment of Higginbotham for first degree murder.
At the trial a change of venue was taken from the county where the crime was committed and the prosecution was ably assisted by the County Attorney of Cavalier County, North Dakota, where Tabert was born and where his parents resided. Higginbotham, after repeated delays, was finally convicted of second degree murder and sentenced to twenty years in prison at hard labor. His attorneys appealed to the higher court with the result as aforesaid. Higginbotham has been at large since the indictment on bail, which is now discharged since he has been acquitted and allowed his freedom from the fetters of the law.
This is a sample of Southern justice as it is administered when sectional prejudice, or the Negro, are involved. The Southern white man is seldom guilty, in the eyes of the jury, of a crime against a Northern white man. And yet Northern capital is pouring into the coffers of Southern speculators in the purchase of Florida swamp lands, with mosquitos and malaria thrown in for good measure. Had the victim of the whipping boss been a Negro, the grand jury would have dismissed the testimony on the ground of a lack of evidence to warrant an indictment, and would have saved the state a lot of unpleasant notoriety and the expense of a farcical court trial.

William Jennings Bryan is dead. For more than thirty years he had been a public character in the political affairs of the nation. He was a gifted orator, dramatic, magnetic and convincing. He was more of a politician than a statesman or a lawyer. However, he possessed qualifications for leadership which he maintained throughout his career. Sponsoring fallacious, if not dangerous political theories, he had the courage of his convictions and found a following. Lacking consistency, he was something of a public weathervane. He was strong in his likes and dislikes and was actuated by sincere regard for what he actually thought to be right. He dominated through a winning personality and the force of eloquence rather than an appeal to reason or the arts of cunning and chicanery. Three times the standard bearer of his party in a losing race for the presidency, he was strong enough to dominate a national convention that brought about the nomination of Woodrow Wilson to the utter dismay of the powerful forces of Tammany. As a Secretary of State, Mr. Bryan was found wanting. Perhaps his most constructive service was as an aid to prohibition. By nature he was a quasi-preacher and a Bible fundamentalist.
While the smoke of the recent battle still hovered over the vicinity where he had participated in the prosecution of a young school teacher for having violated the Tennessee anti-evolution law, and where he yet remained to clear the debris preparatory to launching a nation-wide campaign against the teaching of the theory of evolution, he passed quietly from this scene of strife and turmoil into the great beyond.
During the trial Mr. Bryan was subjected to a rigid grueling on the witness stand by the attorneys for the defense. The reaction of this examination, through undue excitement, may have, indirectly, hastened his death. However, he was not a well man at the time and was known to have a victim of disease. During all of Mr. Bryan's long and colorful career in public or private life we have yet to learn of a single utterance in any of his speeches where he touched on the "Race problems," or made a bid for the Colored vote, although resourceful with a plethora of panacea
for every other ailment with which the body politic was afflicted. This silence was also a noticeable part of his religious nature.
Seemingly it never occurred to William Jennings Bryan that the injunction of such passages of the Scripture as "love you one another," the "brotherhood of mankind," or the Golden Rule, included black people as well as white. However, far be it from us to question his motives. His private life is said to have been ideal. He was not a hypocrite, but an earnest man, whose understanding and reasoning in matters religious was as queer as in matters political.
His passing brings to a close an eventful and dramatic career.
"Meet Me in Tulsa" is the slogan of the National Negro Business League which holds its annual convention this year at Tulsa, Oklahoma, August 19-21. As far as we are concerned we will not meet you, brother, at Tulsa. Why Tulsa? Why not hades? While it is true the majority of the race live below the Mason and Dixon line and are engaged successfully in both farming and business, the South is not the place to hold a national convention. Northern members, unacustomed to Jim Crow conditions, will not submit to the humiliation that the South would impose upon their manhood. Knowing this to be a fact, leaders of various race organizations show a lack of wisdom in selecting a national conference, anticipating a representative gathering, to be held in the South.
There are many cities in the North where national race gatherings would be welcomed. It is far easier for a Southerner to come to the North where he is privileged to enjoy wider liberties than for a Northernner to go South and have to forego his accustomed rights. Such a selection works a hardship upon the Northern delegate. For this reason we are not going to Tulsa.
Mr. Bryan was pleased to be known as the "Commoner," but he failed to include the lowly Colored man among the common people of his reckoning. He differed in this respect from that great Commoner, Henry Clay. Mr. Clay was a friend to the slave and fraternized with the freed man of his day. He advocated gradual manumission through a compensatory system for both master and slave.
The irascible Mr. Shaw claims that the "movies" are making imbeciles of the people and undermining civilization. We do not agree with the critic fully, but we do believe there is something wrong with the producer who contracts to pay a boy like "Jackie" Coogan a salary amounting to more than the United States government pays its President annually. Something seems wobbly and out of joint.
Walter L. Cohen was born January 22, 1860, at New Orleans, La. He received his education in the public schools, Straight University and the St. Louis Catholic School at New Orleans. He learned the cigar-maker's trade at an early age, and later became interested in local politics.
In 1889 he was appointed a United States Inspector and was promoted to the position of Lieutenant of the United States Inspectors. In 1899 he was made Register of the United States Land Office at New Orleans by President McKinley and was re-appointed by President Roosevelt. He served in this capacity until 1911. He was a delegate to the National Republican Convention in 1892, 1896, 1900, 1904, 1908, 1912 and in 1916. He is the recognized leader against the so-called "Lilly White" Republicans of Louisiana.
Mr. Cohen's activity in behalf of his race has been so pronounced that he has been honored by the Democratic mayor of New Orleans, who appointed him to act as chairman of the Colored Citizens' Committee. This committee has charge of all matters concerning the education and general welfare of the Colored people of New Orleans.
He is perhaps best known as President of the People's Industrial Life Insurance Company. Mr. Cohen owns fully three-fifths of the stock of this company. The company employs more than 150 agents, who collect over $200,000 in premiums annually. The organization furnishes employment for many stenographers and a large clerical force, thus giving the young men and women of the race an opportunity to earn a livelihood at decent wages and maintain their self-respect. He is also part owner of two drug stores and has various other interests, including income realty property.
He owns a beautiful residence which he occupies with his interesting family, consisting of his wife and four children, Walter L., Jr., and Benjamin B., who are officially connected with the Insurance Company; Miss Margaret R. Cohen is a school teacher; Mrs. Bell, formerly Miss Camille, is cashier at one of the drug stores controlled by Mr. Cohen.
Mr. Cohen is a Roman Catholic in religious faith and is active in the affairs of his church. He serves as a member of the board of directors of the St. Louis Catholic School. For nearly thirty years Mr. Cohen has been treasurer of the Economy Benefit Association. This organization is composed of the old Creole citizens of New Orleans and was organized in 1836. He is also connected with many social and civic activities. He was appointed by the late President Harding, Collector of the Port of New Orleans. His appointment met with considerable opposition and the Senate failed to confirm it. He was again appointed during the interim of Congress. Before action could be taken on this appointment Mr. Harding died. President Coolidge in carrying out his late predecessor's policy sent Mr. Cohen's name to the Senate, which met with the approval of a majority and was confirmed.
Mr. Cohen is an effective orator, and like many of his race in the southern political field, has the courage of his conviction, and is a zealous advocate of the rights of the Colored people.
Gleanings From Our Exchanges
The trial of John Scopes in Dayton, Tennessee, for teaching evolution in the public schools, will go down in history as a revelation of the ignorance and bigotry existing in the South in 1925. History will say that the South has not moved forward in its enlightenment since the days of the Spanish inquisition. The Caucasians of Dixie during those dark days chroniclers will record were hostile to science and progress and new thoughts. They will explain the burnings at the stake, the disfranchisement and degeneracy of the Dixie of that day in the light of Dayton just as we reveal the savagry of the later Roman Emperors like Nero in the light of the burning of the Christians and the persecutions of the Jews. If Dayton reveals America to America the persecution of Scopes will not have been in vain.—New York News.
How much does the black race of America spend for amusement? This question has been propounded by many sages. We have compiled no statistics and if any had been compiled they would not be comprehensive and enlightening because the general mass would be derived from guess, but we do know that by association and ordinary human experience that black people spend too much money for pleasure in proportion to what they earn. One savant suggests that the heart of the black man would break if he did not excessively indulge in the evanescent pleasures of life. He says the struggle would break his heart. Slavery did not break his heart and there will be no ultimate escape from the crushing oppression of the present until the economic shackles have been broken. They will not be broken as long as we are a race of wrestles and joy-riders. On with the dance—Chicago Whin

THE NORTHWESTERN-BULLSTEIN APPEAL
ST. JAMES NOTES
Rev. W. H. Griffin. Pastor
A large audience greeted our pastor Sunday morning to hear the first sermon to be delivered by him since his vacation trip to the Pacific coast. We were all glad to have him back and it seemed good to hear his voice proclaiming from the rostrum the sacred truths of God.
The morning sermon was a strong defense of the church against the charge of hypocrisy, which is so frequently made against the church and its members. The writer feels sure that every thoughtful hearer went forth from the service with greater faith in the church and less apt to give credence to the criticisms to which the church is subjected.
At the evening service Rev. S. B. Washington of Iowa City preached a splendid sermon, subject, "The Master of the Ages." The attendance was fair.
The pastor announced that the contract had been awarded for the laying of the floors in our new church. Every member of St. James should feel encouraged at this announcement as it means that we are approaching the day when we shall go into our new church edifice. Let us rally to the support of our splendid leader and his officers.
Mr. J. R. Lynn had charge of the Sunday School last Sunday in the absence of the Superintendent and the Assistant Superintendent.
The senior choir sang Sunday. Mrs. Archer directed the singing in the absence of Dr. Lewis. The singing was splendid, although the attendance was small.
Many out-of-town visitors were present at both services Sunday. We were pleased to see them and invite them to come again.
The Harrod Jubilee Singers, Washington, D. C., will give a sacred concert at St. James Sunday evening.

MEMORIAL BAPTIST NOTES
Rev. C. B. Burton. Pastor
The services were edifying last Sunday. Two well prepared sermons were delivered by the pastor. The Ladies' Aid Society met on last Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs. Edward Robinson, 790 Carroll Ave. Dainty refreshments were served by the hostess at the close of the meeting. Considerable interest is being manifested in the Young People's Union. The programs rendered every Sunday evening are very interesting and inspiring. Everybody is cordially invited to attend. Don't forget the fried fish and chicken supper which is to be given by the Ladies' Aid Society Saturday, August 1, at the home of Mrs. Brown, 579 Rondo.
ST. PAUL BAPTIST NOTES
The people say that St. Paul Baptist Church is a coming church.
Our annual Chautauqua was a great success in every way. Still we expect the next to be bigger and better.
Sunday's services were largely attended. The offering was $200.75.
Our indebtedness is reduced to about $400, which is decreasing weekly.
The church has voted the pastor a much needed vacation, and he will depart about the 10th of August.

Describes New Movement.
Dr. Cady describes the new movement for winning the Negro to the Catholic faith and stated that the mission is now fairly on foot and, as usual with all Catholic movements, is well organized and financed.
"Dr. Cady declares that the Klan is not Christianity, but a denial of all that Jesus Christ came to teach. He affirms that the Negro has come to a degree of race pride and race ambition little understood by the white man. The whole race is being powerfully moved by that which has come to be one mastering passion—to come on and up—cutting out anything and everything which has hitherto entangled and hindered progress.

THE MUSEUM OF THE ARCHITECTURE
(The late court trial at Dayton, Tenn.—Evolution vs. Fundamentalism—and its widespread publicity, suggested to The Undenominational Press Association gathering, "Ideas of God" from the following well known and prominent men and women throughout the Country.)
Governor C. A. Templeton, Connecticut.—I am not a theologian and I am not a philosopher. I am a simple citizen, an every-day man who is interested neither in absturse discussions nor in undignifying questions of dogma. Truth and right are often found in the humble walks of life. Simplicity is nature's first law. It is the essence of Christianity, and I am a Christian. Personally I'm well satisfied with the Bible. Or, to summarize my articles of faith in briefer form, I find my conception of religion and of God contained in the Ten Commandments, the Sermon on the Mount, the Apostles' Creed, and the Lord's prayer.
Mrs. J. B. Harriman, New York.—My conception of God is that He is Life, Truth, Love, Spirit—in fact, All-in-All.
Thomas F. Graham, judge Superior Court, New York.—My idea of God is that He is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent; that He guides our every movement, watches over us, comforts us in sorrow and sadness, gives us joy, gladness and happiness. God makes us great in wisdom, but in humility greater; in justice strong, but in compassion stronger. God makes the humblest the most exalted, and the welfare of the weakest and strongest inseparable. God makes laws and men discover them—laws that rest upon the eternal foundation of righteousness. God gives us the power to think the most practical thing in the world; that each man is entitled to his rights and the rewards of his service, be they ever so great or humble.
Rush Rhees, President University of Rochester.—I conceive God to be the ultimate reality which intelligent thought recognizes as the source and cause of all that is. I cannot conceive Him as detached from that which He is the source and cause, but rather as embracing and immanent in all that is.
C. C. Little, President University of Maine.—A spiritual force manifesting itself in our individual lives at such times and in such ways that we experience, recognize, and are thankful for it without in the least being able to describe or analyze it by means of our intellect—that is my "Idea of God."
May Irwin, actress—
Latest Triumph
THE completion of the new Chicago Union Station marks a noteworthy accomplishment in the history of important engineering undertakings, from which travelers from all parts of the United States will derive pleasure and benefit.
The station is without doubt one of the finest and most efficiently designed railroad terminals in the world. It forms a vital link in the realization of the "Chicago City Beautiful Plan." Simplicity, accessibility and convenience for the traveling public are the essential virtues of the new terminal. Rest and recreation rooms, ticket offices, barber shop, dining rooms, stores of various kinds, and almost every convenience known to travelers, are to be found on the one level, no steps to climb.
The main station is a low monumental type of building with a row of massive columns of classic design along the entire east front. Once inside, the traveler finds himself in a gigantic waiting room more than 100 feet high and brilliantly lighted through skylights in the great arch ceiling. Colonnades inclose the room, the walls of which are patterned after the architecture of ancient Rome. Bordering this room are the ultra-complete passenger terminal facilities. An innovation in railway terminal design is a conference room accommodating 125 people, which is available, without
"Help my brother's boat across, And lo! Thine own shall reach the shore."
My own conception the Life-principal, is strict adherence to the Golden Rule—the only religion I have ever tried to live.
Walter Williams, Dean of the School of Journalism, University of Missouri.—To me, is the Supreme Ruler of the universe, the Father and Friend of all men, actually and actively present in a world created and governed by Him.
Pauline Lord, actress.—All that is good (God) is natural. To me creeds are unimportant. God is Life, and the approach to God is correct living.
Arthur M. Hyde, Governor of Missouri.—Undoubtedly God is. Undoubtedly God is spiritual incorporeal, creative Life-principal. Undoubtedly He also is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent.
Jas. L. Barton, N. Y. Board of Foreign Missions.—To me God is the eternal One, creator of the heavens and the earth, almighty, self-existant, filling all space.
Duncan Matheson, Captain of Detectives.—God is Spirit, infinite, eternal unchangeable, Maker of heaven and earth and limitless in power, perfect in creation, doing all things well, all-wise in purpose, and the future hope of all mankind. Without hope, humanity would be an utter failure.
Eliza M. Mosher, M. D., Ann Arbor, Mich.—God is the omnipotent creator, ruler and caretaker of all things that exist.
Mary Baker Eddy, in Science and Health, page 587.—God. The great I AM; the all-knowing, all-wise, all-loving and eternal Principal; Mind, Soul, Life, Truth, Love, all substance, intelligence.
Calvin H. French, President Hastings College, Nebraska.—God is infinite.
Charles W. Eliot, President Emeritus of Harvard University.—A loving God rules the universe; the path to loving and serving Him lies through loving and serving mon; the way to worship Him is to reverence the beauty, truth and goodness He has brought forth.
J. Campbell White, New York.—God is spirit, God is eternal, existing from eternity without beginning to eternity without end. God is creator. He created all things and upholds them by His power. God is Love. O. W. Taylor, Chicago.—"God is everywhere, and nothing else is present or has power." Edward Heath, New Orleans.—God! Immortal Power, governing all!

charge, to patrons of the Union Station lines for conferences and other meetings.
To give some idea of the immensity of the new station, it may be stated that the main building covers an area of about three acres with a concourse covering 60,000 square feet. The entire terminal facilities cover more than 35 acres and will expedite the prompt and satisfactory handling of 50,000 passengers, 400 tons of baggage and 300 trains daily with room for future expansion. Fifteen acres of glass were used in the various coverings over the train sheds, which extend more than 1,200 feet beyond the main structure. A total of 17,000 tons of structural steel, 175,000 cubic feet of Indiana limestone and 10,000 cubic feet of granite were used in the station building and concourse. The foundation consists of 449 cylindrical concrete piers from four to ten feet in diameter, reaching to a depth of more than 60 feet below the level of the Chicago river.
Those who have had the privilege of inspecting the new station pronounce it a marvel in terminal construction and are urging their friends to see it on their next visit to Chicago. The station is used jointly by the Pennsylvania Railroad; Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul By.; Chicago, Burlington & Quincy R. R., and the C cago & Alton R. R.

HEROES OF WAR
LIVING QUIETLY
Only Hazy Memory Now
Remains of Brave Deeds.
ST. PAUL PARK
SUNDAY, AUG. 2nd
Washington.—Those men who came
back from the baptism of fre tn
France six years ago, heroes for a
fleeting hour, have melted into the
mass of humanity from which they
stood apart gloriously for a brief mo-
ment, and are as completely out of
the picture as if there had never been
a war.
In the thick book tn the voluminous
files of the War department their
names can be found—those whose con:
spleuous bravery brought recognition
from thelr own governiwent and others,
But in the minds of their countrymen
only a hazy memory remains,
Six years ago, the name of Maj.
“Charles W. Whittlesey was on millions
of tongues, the hero of the “lost bat-
tallon"—"Go-to-Hell Whittlesey”—who
refused to surrender his command
when it was cut off for five days with-
out support in Argonne forest, under
heavy fire, Melancholy, he jumped
from a liner at sea, vanished from
Ufe and men,
‘Maj. Gen, William Haan, commander
of the Thirty-second division, a Na-
tional Guard outfit, died, a victim of
disease, leaving a record of conspicuous
bravery in action, and a wisdom at
the council table,
‘Those other heroes whose names
were watchwords for a time have
ropped from notice. Two of them
are back on the farm. Sergt. Alvin
York, who captured 120 Germans, is
back in Tennessee. Just across the
line in Kentucky, at Devil's Jump
Branch, Breathitt county, another eto
is living the quiet life of a farmer.
Sergt. Willie Sandlin perhaps re-
calls how, on a rainy day, he felt, at
Bois de Forges, France, when he ad-
‘vanced alone on three German machine
‘gun ness with bullets flying all around,
and hurled the grenades which tore
into pleces the enemy crews which
‘were holding up the advance.
In the same state, at Lexington,
lives Sergt. Samuel Woodfill, whe was
acclaimed the outstanding hero of the
American forces, for his part In silenc-
ing three machine gun nests one after
the other, killing eleven men and cap-
turing others.
‘The foremost American alr ace,
Capt. Eddie V. Rickenbacker, has set-
tled down to a prosaic life in the auto-
mobile business in Detroit. Some of
his comrades, like Kipling’s sergeant,
fare still in the army.
Sergt. Frank Hunter, credited with
nine planes, and Capts. Arthur D.
Brooks, Martinus E. Stenseth and Ar
thur E. Easterbrook, all with six vic-
torles on the records, are still in the
service.

Holds Court Can’t Save
Life Against Man’s Will
Murphysboro.—Can a court save a
man's life, against his will, by order-
ing a surgical operation? State's At-
torney John H. Searing decided that
such action does not le within the
Jurisdiction of the court, in an opinion
tn a case placed before him.
Dr. 0. House of De Soto recently
came to Murphysboro to obtain, if
possible, an order for the amputation
of a patient's arm. The patient,
Charile Counze, was wounded in the
arm on a hunting expedition and the
wound became infected. Doctor House,
who had charge of the case, judged
that amputation was the only sure
means of checking the polson and say.
ing the patient's life. Young Couns
refused to undergo an operation, and
the doctor came to see the state's
attorney for advice.
In the meantime the patient moved
to Missourl, where he is under the
care of his mother, and no further re
ports of his condition have been re
celved.
A similar case ended in the death
of the patient in St. Louts. Michael J
Moulcahey, a railroad engineer living
here, suffered a bruise which became
infected, and the doctors in the St
Louis hospital, where he was taken,
decided upon amputation of Mulca
hey's leg. Mulcahey refused to con
sent to such an operation, and dled

weather headgear 12.7 per cent over
the preceding biennial period. The De
partment of Commerce announced that
straw hat production exclusive of
trimmed hats for women and children,
was valued at $32,534,768 for the two

Theater Pensions Cook
Who Served 30 Years
Paris—Marle, cook and maid
of all work for the actor, Bd-
ouard de Max, is to be pen-
sloned by the Comedie Fran-
caise. She took care of her er-
ratic and prodigal master some
thirty years, during which she
saw him give away 1,000-frane
notes and often had to fight off
bili collectors,
Her master never forgot to ald”
his poor Tomrades, but seldom
remembered to pay Marie her
