Saint P DYE JOHNSON SAYS ANTI-LYNCHING BILL IS SAVED Unfavorable Report by Judiciary Committee Held Temporary Delay of Bill. BILL TO GET TWO WEEKS OF REVISIONARY WORK N. A. A. C. P. Secretary Says U. S. Shows Weakness By Not Stopping Lynching. New York City, June 8—The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, is saved. This was the statement of James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who returned to New York from Washington on Friday, May 26. An unfavorable report on the Dyer Bill by the Judiciary Committee of the Senate on Monday, May 22, was narrowly averted and the Republican leaders of the Senate were convinced that favorable action was absolutely essential. Not only has an unfavorable report been averted but the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, May 24, met and decided to postpone action for two weeks, during which time efforts would be devoted to making the Bill absolutely unassailable when it is brought upon the floor of the Senate. The N. A. A. C. P. secretary made clear to Republican leaders that a failure to act favorably on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill would have three disastrous results: 1. It would constitute a confession on the part of the Federal Government of inability to deal with America's shame and would leave the Negro hopeless of that protection against the mob owed him by the government to which he gives his allegiance. 2. It would be interpreted as a license to mobs and might be following by a reign of lynching terror too horrible to be described. 3. It would be a repudiation of the pledge made by the Republican party in its national platform that action would be taken on lynching, and would more than anything else discredit that party among colored voters. University President Asked to Resign For Not Praising G.O.P. University President Asked to Resign For Not Praising G.O.P. (Associated Negro Press) Jefferson City, Mo., June 8—Authoritative reports state that President Clement Richardson, who has made an excellent record as President of Lincoln university, during the past four years, was asked to resign because of the fact that he failed to extol the virtues of the Grand Old Party when making public educational addresses. In former years politics have been played to some extent at the state school, always to the detriment of that institution. It was the practice of the various Presidents to refrain as far as possible from taking any part in politics. The colored citizens have not favored the school being made a football by politicians, nor was this the desire of Richardson, a Harvard graduate. The present baseball season in the N. N. L., has anything but a lark for the official scorer. THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN Dr. Moton Makes Address at Lincoln Memorial Services SPEAKS AT LINCOLN MEMORIAL SERVICES PETER JOHNSON DR. ROBERT R. MOTON Harmony Quartet Pleases Radio Fans Jubilee Singers Asked to Repeat Numbers Rendered at Local Broadcasting Station. Eighteen members of the Jubilee chorus of the Camphor Methodist Episcopal church Tuesday evening sang for one of the longest and most successful programs yet broadcast from the Pioneer Press and Dispatch-Commonwealth Electric radio station. Starting promptly at 7:50 P. M., the program continued for an hour and a half, including a ten-minute intermission. Telephone calls received during the intermission commended highly the work of the Jubilee singers and the clearness of the sending from the broadcasting station. One, from the Aberdeen hospital, asked that C. D. Jackson repeat his solo, "My Old Kentucky Home," and another that the quartet sing again "Ole Aunt Mandy's Chile." The chorus opened the concert by singing the colored spiritual "Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray." Other ensemble selections, interspersed with quartet numbers and readings, were "Every Time I Feel the Spirit," "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," "O, Yes; O, Yes," (with the solo by C. H. Miller, bass;) "Go Down, Moses," "Heaven," and "I Want to Be a Cristian in My Heart," given as the closing number of the evening. The quartet, which, when not with the chorus, sings under the name of The Saintly City Harmony Four, is composed of C. D. Jackson, Lander Jackson, John H. Hickman, Jr., and C. H. Miller. The work of the four proved exceptionally popular with the auditors of WAAH. Among the numbers they sang were "Look Away," "Old Black Joe," "Ole Aunt Mandy's Chile," "Absent" and "Sweet Sabbath Eve." In addition to these numbers was the solo by Mr. Jackson and two readings from Paul Lawrence Dunbar, excellently done by Mrs A. McFarland. Portland, Ore., June 8—Charles Hall, Ku Klux Klan candidate for governor, received 41,915 votes and Gov. Olcott, anti-Ku Klux Klan candidate for re-election, received 41.654 at the primary election last week. Hall won the nomination by 261 votes. ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1922. Principal of Tuskegee Institute Represents Colored America at Monument Dedication (Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June 8—Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, represented Colored America, at the notable dedication of the great Lincoln Monument, here Decoration Day. Dr. Moton shared honors with President Harding, Chief Justice Taft, and Robert T. Lincoln, the only surviving son of the martyred president. Lincoln did not die for the Negro alone, but upon that race rests the immediate obligation to justify emancipation, Dr. Moton, declared in his address. "There is no question that Lincoln died to save the union," he declared, "and it is equally true that to the last extremity he defended the rights of States, but when the last veteran has stacked his arms and the memory of high courage and deep devotion remains to inspire noble sons of valiant fathers—the united voice of a grateful posterity will say that the greatest of Lincoln lies in this—that he spoke the word that gave freedom to a race. "Twelve million black Americans share the rejoicing of this day. To Lincoln above all others we owe the privilege of sharing as fellow citizens in the consecration of this spot." President Harding declared that Lincoln was incomparably the greatest of our presidents. Missourians Draft Anti-Lynching Bill Secret Service Bureau to Collect Evidence is Feature of Bill. (Associated Negro Press) St. Louis, Mo., June 8—The Missouri Negro Industrial Commission will draft a bill for introduction in next legislature, which will define lynchting as murder, and provide penalties against members of mobs as well as include other ideas calculated to stop the practice. This bill will incorporate in it some features usually left out by others, one of which will provide for the creation of a state Secret Service Bureau to assist in collection of evidence, and the power to secure juries from any part of the state. Eighty-three persons have been lynched in Missouri in the last 33 years, thirty of whom have been white. The last lynching occurred during April 1921, when Roy Hammond was lynched at Bowling Green after having been convicted and given a ten year term in the penitentiary. Investigations have since established a strong doubt that Hammond was guilty of the crime of rape, and there were discovered strong indications of a conspiracy to mete out some sort of "Lynch Law" justice (?) because of public demand in some quarters. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE GIVE PRINTING ORDER (Associated Negro Press) Nashville, Tenn., June —Estimates on printing the Minutes of the Atlanta meeting of the Business League were asked for from three of the largest Negro establishments in the South and the estimates have all come in, the lowest one being from the National Baptist Publishing Board, which quoted $385.21 for WHITES IN TEXAS CONTINUE BLOODY MOB ATROCITIES Race Feeling is Almost Severed Because of the Lynchings During the Month. ARMED COLORED MEN ARE OFFERING RESISTANCE Calls for Arms is Answered by Hundreds in an Effort to Prevent Riots. Dallas, Texas, June 8—Texans are continuing their bloody attacks upon colored men. The tense feeling between the races which has existed following the five lynchings of the past few weeks and fears are entertained for wide spread trouble. Conflicting reports as to a siege which officers and white citizens are said to have established about a house full of colored men near Kirvin, following the killing of Leroy Gibson 19, colored, after officers had arrested him in connection with assault and killing of Miss Eula Awsley, near Kirvin, May 4, were received here tonight. Surrounded by a mob of heavily armed white men, between seventy-five and 100 colored men, likewise armed, and barricaded in a house on the Powell farm, south of Kirvin, are resisting efforts to dislodge them, according to a report from Kirvin. Calls for arms and ammunition, said the report from Kirvin, brought hundreds from Corsicana, Mexia, Streetman, Wortham, Teague, and nearby towns, who are gathering at Kirvin. The dispatch from Forth Worth, however, said the crowd was not organized. Killing of a colored man by a white man and the killing of the white man in turn were reported from Streetman, but the report was not confirmed. It is said the colored men have decided that their only hope is to fight back. N.A.A.C.P.Drive Continues While Ku Klux Raves N.A.A.C.P.Drive Continues While Ku Klux Raves New York, N. Y., June 8—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, made public a letter from Birmingham, Alabama, branch, showing that the work of organization was going forward there despite flogging of colored citizens by the Ku Klux Klan. The letter says in part: "But in spite of discouragement and sometimes risk of a flogging at the hands of the K. K. K. we have started our Drive and we are determined to roll up a respectable number. "Of late there is a flogging in our city of some colored and sometimes a white, once or twice a week. Our branch is aware of four such cases of colored people now. "We are holding membership meetings every Sunday." REVIVAL SERVICES END AT ST. PETER A. M. E One of the greatest evangelistic campaigns ever held in Minneapolis, closed on May 28 after being conducted by Miss Mary G. Evans of Indianapolis, Indiana for two weeks. The meetings were held at St. Peter A. M. E. church and were attended largely by both colored and white. Thirty-one persons joined the church during the meetings and more than eight hundred dollars was raised. President-General of U. N. I. A. with Four Official Members to Visit St. Paul. MEETINGS TO BE HELD AT ST. JAMES A. M. E. Local Branch Making Elaborate Preparations to Receive Noted Visitors. Hon. Marcus Garvey, president general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League will arrive in St. Paul Friday, June 16, for a two day sojourn on the last leg of his nationwide tour in the interest of the great organization of which he is president. Four other official members will accompany Mr. Garvey. The Garvey party is scheduled to remain in St. Paul only two days, June 16 and 17. Mr. Garvey will address the citizens of St. Paul Friday and Saturday nights at St. James A. M. E. church, Jay and Fuller Sts., and judging from the advance sale of tickets, the church will be packed with people eager to hear first-hand information of the world-wide movement founded by Mr. Garvey. A large musical program has been arranged for the occasions. According to Pres. John Coleman of the local branch and Mrs. Leon White, chairman of the entertainment committee, a public reception for Mr. Garvey and his party is being planned. Other preparations are being made by the local branch to make the visit of the Garvey party a big occasion. "Jim Crow" Statute Wanted in Missouri "Jim Crow" Statute Wanted in Missouri Delegate to Convention Proposer "Jim Crow" Amendment to State Constitution. St. Louis, Mo., June 8—During the introduction of proposals at Jefferson City for the new Constitution which this state hopes to adopt, delegate, G. L. Zwick of St. Joseph proposed an article on education embodying the ideas of the State Teachers' Association. Among the provisions are separate schools for colored people. This state has always had separate schools, but the leading colored people are opposed to any segregated ideas being embodied in the basic law. Segregation ideas frequently find form in bills introduced in various sessions of the Legislature, but sentiment in the state does not seem to demand any strengthening of the "Jim Crow" lines. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE MEETS AT NORFOLK, VA. (Associated Negro Press) Norfolk, Va., June 8—When the National Negro Business League meets in August, it will be welcomed not only by Norfolk, but by the entire Tidewater district of which this city is the center. Numerous business and civic enterprises in nearby cities are taking an interest in the coming convention and there is little doubt but that the visiting business men will be surprised at the remarkable progress being made here. Announcement has just been received that Mr. Albon L. Holesey, Assistant KLANSMEN INITIATE 3000 NEW MEMBERS AT WEIRD SERVICES NEAR CHICAGO; 30,000 ATTEND Chicago, III., June 9—The recent demonstration of the Ku Klux Klan here when they initiated 3,000 members; five men lynched in the same state in one week, and other numerous K. K. K. activities punctuating the news from every section of the country, has aroused considerable comment and interest here. Men well-known in public life are deeply concerned at the dangerous trend of racial relations. Major A. E. Paterson, Supreme Chief of the Beavers, former judge advocate with the 92nd Division in the world war, and a leading member of the bar here, gave his views of the Ku Klux Klan activities. "Active and courageous opposition through organized effort is the real solution to the menace of the Klan and similar un-American organization," declared Major Patterson. "The same methods must be used for defense which are used against us. The practice of lynching is permitted in the South to show disregard for the due process of law in the punishment of alleged crime on the part of our group and by so violating the law in this regard, makes it plausible to violate all other laws as applied to Negroes."

(Associated Negro Press) Argus Pub. Co. Purchases Lot for New Home (Associated Negro Press) (Associated Negro Press) St. Louis, Mo., June 8—The St. Louis Argus, one of the most prosperous of colored papers, recently added to its property holdings through the purchase of fifty by one-hundred forty-two feet on the South side of Market at 2312-16 Market, where the plant will be housed after extensive alterations are made in the buildings. The Argus Publishing Company will then own real estate worth approximately $40,000. ROBBER ADMITS HE IS NOT PASTOR OF CHURCH (Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., June 8—Samuel Clark admitted yesterday in the So. Clark street court that he was not the pastor of the Bethel African Methodist church, 30th and Dearborn streets. Clark was arrested on the charge of stealing silks and lingerie to the value of $6,000.00 from two south side stores. At that time, the police said, he declared himself the pastor of the Bethel Church. On hearing of Clark's claims, the Rev. S. L. Birt, who has been pastor of the church for two years asked that the matter be set right. INNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY N TI ATE 3000 WEIRD SE AGO; 30,00 N TIES E 3000 NEW VEIRD SERVICES 0; 30,000 ATTEND "Hooded Knights" Contend that Their Highest Aim is "White Supremacy." (Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., June 8—3,000 men are said to have been initiated into the Ku Klux Klan here last Saturday night, while a crowd of 30,000 members gathered from this city and points in Northern Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin joined in the weird rites. There have been rumors of renewed activity on the part of the "hooded knights" ever since the congressional investigation gave them an official whitewash. The investigation at that time, which was instigated by the Jews and Catholics was dropped it is said when officials of the order stated that they had no feeling against the Jews and Catholics, but that their sole aim was "white supremacy." The initiation was held on a river a few miles north west of Chicago, and thousands of cars are said to have been in the parade. The "Imperial Buzzard" is said to have conducted the rites. No colored people live in the section traversed by cars or in the vicinity of the meeting. Simultaneously with the meeting the S. S. Peter and St. Paul's Catholic church at Naperville, a small town near the Klans' meeting place, was burned to the ground. Rev. Schuette, pastor, and the state fire marshall have evidence, it is said, to prove the "kluckers" committed the deed. Not one act against colored people has been attempted, but it is common knowledge that a propaganda has been set on foot against the employment of colored people, urging that whites be substituted. Dead Heroes of 8th Regiment Honored Chicago Pays Tribute to Members of 8th Regiment Who Died in World War. Chicago, Ill., June 8—One hundred and forty-two trees planted along Giles (formerly Forest) Ave., from 31st to 39th St., represent Chicago's tribute to the hundred and forty members of the 8th regiment who died fighting for democracy in France. Formal exercises for the dedication of the street under its new name were held last Saturday afternoon. The dedication of the street ended memorial exercises which had been held all week. Last Thursday afternoon a baseball game was played at Schorling Park, between the American Giants and the Cuban Stars, the receipts of which will be applied to a fund to defray the expenses of planting the memory trees and erecting a tablet at the armory. The gift of the use of the pary and the services of the two teams were made by Andrew (Rube) Foster. EPISCOPAL PICNIC AT STUBBS BAY, JULY 12 The twenty-third annual picnic to be given by the Men's Episcopal Club of St. Phillips and St. Thomas Episcopal churches of St. Paul and Minneapolis will be given Wednesday, July 12 at Stubbs Bay on the Luce Electric Line, according to the announcement made this week by John M.

Member ASSOCLATED NEGRO PRESS: “First in Service.” UNJUST DEMOCRACY Under the caption of “Democracy’s Enemy,” the following is part of an editorial published in the St. Paul Pioneer Press this week. “It is a strange example of our degree of pro- gress in civilization that a criminal attack on a white woman by a Negro in Texas should not be a matter for punishment according to law but a signal for a battle between the two races in the immediate locality. On the one side there is a fierce desire for revenge against innocent as well as guilty members of the other race, and on the other side an attitude of defense of the guilty, simply because of his race.” This situation is a menace to democracy but we fail to see it exactly as a class war. In the eyes of God, a man is a man whether he is black or white, but in these United States, supposed to be the world’s éxample for democracy, if a man is black he is denied the privileges enjoyed by a white man not only in the attainment of his am- bition along civie and economic lines, but in the eyes of justice. In Texas, in Georgia, in Mississippi or without exception, in any of the southern states, when a black man is accused of assaulting a white wo- man, his fate is doubtful until he is sentenced and locked behind the prison walls, but when a white man assaults a black woman, we have yet to hear of a mob of black men lynching him. Then why is it not fair for the black man to assume an attitude of defense in the face of these prevailing condi- tions? The World War taught people to contend, to fight for their rights, and certainly the Negro was taught the same thing. It is wrong to say, however, that the Negro assumes an attitude of defense for those guilty of crime simply because of race. Yes, very wrong. We are taught that the due process of law should determine whether a man is guilty or not guilty but when the mob takes the law into its own hands by lynching or burning at stake the accused under the very nose of the authorities, is the black man supposed to sit by idly and allow his brother to be a victim of this kind of lawlessness when every man is en- titled to a fair trial in the courts of justice? Has the black man no right to rise in defense of the principles of justice when the law fails to take its course? | True, the experience of the world is that demo- cracies have failed because of civil war among classes. The twentieth century democracies will fail too, unless their issues are properly met and dealt with. In America, the race problem, as im- portant as it is, is constantly evaded by our gov- ernment. “White Supremacy” propaganda is flooding the country against its black citizenry, still the federal government refuses to deal with the Ku Klux Klan. Lynching and mob rule is virtually at its height, still the U. S. Senate hesi- tates to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. How then, are class struggles to be averted when the government will not meet the issue? | Unceasing preaching and conviction of the prin- ciple that no class can prosper long at the expense of the general good is all very well. If the press of the country would unite and insist that the gov- ernment meet and deal squarely with the race pro- blem by passing necessary legislation aimed at a remedy, the solution of one of the greatest defects. of the American democracy will be found.

The object of the system is to interest pupils in high class music and coun- teract the jazz craze.

The object of the system is to interest pupils in high class music and coun- teract the jazz craze. When the Board of Education inaugurated the system at the beginning of the past school term, they appointed Miss Blanche Morrison as the only Colored instructor among the several as- sociates of the general supervisor. Miss Morrison took charge of the music at Yates and Wendell Phillips school, both Colored, and when the com- petition for honors came on May 18, the Yates nd Wendell Phillips schools led in the contest. It is not surprising to note that the Colored schools led in the musical contest, because it has long been an outstanding fact that Negroes are adapt in music, but the surprise comes when they ‘were given credit by the white dailies on the mer- its of their work even though they competed be- tween themselves, the white schools having com- peted between themselves. CONTEMPORARIES SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT Commencement time is again at hand. Again are hundreds of young Negro men and women being ushered into the world, well prepared, specially trained, full of hope and ambition with too few opportunities open to them of pursuing their chosen lines. What is to become of them? Who will be finally declared blamable for their failure to “make good?” Who finally will lose as a result of their having no means of using their training and ‘their talents? Most assuredly they themselves cannot be justly blamed for their lack of opportunity. Nor can the blame be totally laid at the door of a civilization which alwaye has and still is giving to their parents and to their race at large ample opportunity to work and save. And, just as surely, their race will be the heaviest losers if the press of circumstances forces them into lines of en- deavor more productive of immediate remuneration though less likely to result in permanent contribution to society from them. What will we do about it? Shall we continue sloth- fully to point to our few individually successful men and tell them to do likewise? Shall we continue, in the face of the fact that we all realize our needs of more institu- tions which shall confine our moneys to channels produc- tive of more lasting good to ourselves, to fail to pool our efforts and follow the dictates of those whose train- ing fits them for leadership? There is not a state in our nation where ventures owned by us and efficiently operated cannot succeed. There is not a city in which there is not enough idle Negro capital to put into operation business ventures which could furnish gainful employment to our trained young people, increase the financial well being of stock- holders and become a thing of pride to the race at large. Why do we wait?) Why waiting, do we bemoan our unfortunate lot and claim that we of all men are most miserable? We possess the solution to at least one of our greatest difficulties. Why should we continue to bes when we can do otherwise? Let us think in terms of the future of our trained young people, at least to the extent of trying to give ‘them opportunity to use the training which they receive. Our failure now is our own fault. —DALLAS EXPRESS THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW We are quick to jump on ‘em when they are down. The leader of the pack has fallen, the gossip hungry “running mates” soon devour the strieken one. Who's next—It may be you. Watch your step. Set ‘em up in the other alley and let’s all take a shot at it. The bigger they are the harder they fall, and the meaner you are the harder you push them. We are nearly all a buneh of weaklings. If we haven't sinned overtly we have certain- ly sinned in thought. The only difference in our grading is governed by the extent of the publicity meted out to us, Some of us have been caught but the most of us haven't! There isn’t a “lily white” in the assortment and we all know it. If we have escaped detection let's congratulate ourselves on our good fortune. If some other poor devil has been caught, let's not pick his bones, let's carefully sift his virtue from the wreckage. If it’s but one misstep to perdition, but one little awkward unthinking and overwhelming moment of for- getfulness of a life time of building and destroy it in a flash, let’s be merciful. Good men gone wrong and there have been some big ones who have gone the way of the transgressor, but many have left behind them enduring moments of virtue which will never be forgotten in our generation. This is not intended as a preachment—it is a lesson —a sorrowful lesson our own weakness. It is not a con- fession, it could not possibly happen to any of us as we see ourselves now, but it can happen, will happen and is happening. Dim the study lamp, seek the solitude of your closet and thank God you have escaped it. Don't parade your virtues, your own great will overcome évil. Don't set yourself up as a Saint Anthony for the Devil Is crafty and all persuading “confidence man” and he paints some very alluring and reasonable pictures that readily find market in the best regulated families. Let your prayers follow the fallen and let there abide with them all the merey and human kindness your own true spirit is capable of offering. INDIANAPOLIS LEDGER HAYTIAN TOOLS By William Pickens (Fer the Associated Negro Press It must make even bright heaven look dark to the soul of the great Toussaint when he sees Hayti today op- Dressed through puppet presidents and various dummy representatives and tools of a military power. It is very difficult to oppress a people unless you get some of that people to be your tools. If you are not afraid to risk the nausea, go to some of the present “Haytian legations” and meet the colored belly-crawlers, who are supposed to “represent Hayti,” but represent, in fact, the marines in Hayti and the power behind the mavines. The dummy Dresident (speel it with small “p”!) of Hayti 1s appoint- ed by the oppressor, and these littler dummies, the “Hay- tian ministers”, are in turn appointed by this president at the dictation of the oppressor. They are then sent abroad—to do nothing. Their most active moments are when they are trying to “block” the efforts of somebody else who may be trying to help Hayti. And the Haytian people have to pay the salaries of these betrayers. Woe had a recent observation of these despicable Puppets, which we shall describe in due time. We are only waiting to see if they will make a sincere effort to reetity, as they promised, the particular wrong of orifs- sion in which we observed them, ‘We must not look upon our work as a dull duty. If we chose we can make it interesting. To make a success in any line of endeavor, we must put our heart into any- thing we undertake, trace out the cause and previous history, consider it in all its bearings, think how much and even the humblest labor may benefit, and there will be scarcely a duty we may look to with enthusiasm. We will get love out of our work and it will be done with ease. This will be good, like mountain air, to brace up our character. Let us learn to be punctual and attentive to all our duties. Put ourselves in the boss’s place and give the employer a square day’s work for a square day’s pay. Put something into life if we expect something out of it. NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN ELLIOT-WEBER WEDDING On the third of June, last Saturday evening at Pilgrim Baptist Church the first June wedding and one of the mostly prettily appointed cere- monies ever wituessed in this city took place when Miss Lucelia Elliot, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. El- liot, 415 University Ave. and Dr. Earl ‘S. Weber son of Mr. and Mra. A. S. Weber, 410 Edmund St., were united in the holy bonds of matrimony. About 600 friends and relatives were assembled to witness the cere- mony which was performed by the Pastor, Rev. L. W. Harris. The church had been turned into a bower of beauty and the bride with her daintily garbed attendants made a beautiful appearance. Following the ceremony a recep- tion was given at the home of the bride to which 650 guests had been bidden. A very costly and magnifi- cient collection of presents were dis- played, showing the high esteem in which the young couple were held by their numerous friends. The young couple left Monday morning on a motor trip to Lake Po- kegama where they will spend their honeymoon. SASKATOON, SASK. Mr. R. J.

Page 4 Chicago Black Belt Full of Vice Dens Politicians Blamed for Vice and Gambling Reign in Chicago Second Ward Area. Chicago, Ill., June 8—Gambling and vice are again rampant in the second ward, the "black belt" of this city. The daily papers are featuring certain resorts, cabarets, and temples of chance, where it is claimed particularly vicious conditions exist. Many persons who profess to know, state that conditions are no worse in the colored district than in many other sections of the city, although it is admitted that most of the patronage in these places comes from the white element who seek the black belt to do their slumming. 35th Street, the center of the district, has developed into a gay white way with brilliantly lighted jazz places clotting the corners and with autos choking the street until the early hours of the day. The daily papers and the reform element charge the politicians who control the colored vote with using their political power solely to protect vice, with terrible effect upon both the white and colored youth of the city. Gambling according to the daily papers is operated on an unheard scale, one place being cited at 31st and Indiana in a building where colored doctors, lawyers and business men have offices. Here play has no limit, literally tens of thousands of dollars changing hands each night. Dan Jackson, an undertaker, is said to be the representative of the political clique which controls the games in the district. A peculiar feature of the situation is the rather helpless attitude of the better element of people perhaps for want of leadership, and the ineffectiveness of the pulpit of the city. Somebody Wuz Sayin' that— Since H. W. S. has purchased a new derby and laid away his white cap, his sight has improved. The flappers have deserted Dale and Central but the "cake-eaters" are still holding down the corner. The streets of the Twin Cities were deserted when everybody went down "the ol' Mississippi" last Monday night. Buster Lindsay has gone to work! (That ought to get it in the dark.) The South Side must be a palace; judging by the number of "crowns" handed out there lately. Elmer Bradley is now singing the new song, entitled, "Its Wonderful to be a Bachelor." If Earl Duncan and Johnny Thornton believe that Percy Smith is protection from the police when they go on motor cycle rides with out any licenses or tail light, just try it again. "The Three Musketeers" hold down Rondo street very efficiently after two o'clock in the afternoon, daily. HARVARD SHOWS SIGN OF DISCRIMINATING JEWS (Associated Negro Press) Cambridge, Mass. June 8—What is interpreted as an announcement involving discrimination against the Jews has just been issued by the Harvard authorities. It is announced that because of limited accommodations, it will be necessary to limit the number of students applying for admission every fall from now on. The statement says: "We have not at present sufficient classrooms or dormitories—especially freshman dormitories—to take care of any further large increase. Before a general policy can be formulated on this great question it must engage the attention of the governing board and the faculties and it is likely to be discussed by alumni and undergraduates. "It is natural that with a widespread discussion of this sort going on, there should be talk about the proportion of Jews at the college." Dean Greenbough denied that any race discrimination was planned. "The soldier bonus plans are becoming complicated." Meaning more so. The former Kaiser is said to be afflicted with a religious mania. Perhaps he wants to start a holy war. Jack Johnson Seeks Match with Jackson Ex-heavyweight Champion Trying to Stage Come-back Against Sensual Fighter. WASHINGTON COURT HOUSE, O. June 8—Jack Johnson, former heavy weight champion of the world, is seeking a match with Tut Jackson, the sensation of the squared arena, according to Billy Palmer, Jackson's manager. The Ohio lad, whose notable string of one-round knock-outs has earned for him the title of the "fighting marvel of the age" is being carefully groomed for a bout with either Wills or Dempsey, it is claimed. Jackson came into prominence, almost over night, by his amazing knockout victory over the aging, but still crafty Sam Langford. In discussing the meeting with Johnson, Palmer told reporters that he was willing to send Jackson against the former champ at any time for twenty rounds or more, providing the National Boxing Comission sanctioned the bout, Johnson having been barred. Hopkins-Tucker Bout Looms Up Local Battlers Seem Anxious To Meet in Fistic Ring— Promoter Wanted. For sometime, what has been considered as a good match, a bout between Steve Hopkins, well-known local middleweight and Lawrence Tucker, a stellar ring performer of the same class, has been progressing. During the past week, both boxers have said they are willing to meet each other in the squared circle and settle the argument as to which is best. Hopkins has repeatedly said that he is willing to meet Tucker or any other local middle weight and has gone sof ra as to say that if the bout could be arranged with Tucker, he would give 5 per cent of his share of the "profits" to charity, the Crispus Attucks Home. His manager "Curly" Campbell has expressed himself as willing to send his protege against Tucker on any terms that can be arranged. Thann Travis, manager of Tucker, is perfectly willing to let his boxer meet Hopkins providing satisfactory arrangements can be made. He is also negotiating for several out-of-town matches for his boxer. A promter for the match between Hopkins and Tucker is at the present time the only thing in the way of the match. CAMPBELL GYM IS NOW OPEN FOR WORKOUTS Campbell's gymnasium, 317½ Wabasha street, is now open and is rated as one of the best equipped and well ventilated gymnasiums in the Northwest. Dally workouts are held at 3 p. m. and they resemble ones that could be given only by experts. Every young man in St. Paul is urged to take advantage of the opportunity and visit the Campbell gym. They who do not know the manly art of self-defense are given a chance to learn under the tutorship of some of the best boxers that the Twin Cities afford. The Campbell gym, along with some of the other athletic adventures, the Uptown baseball team, the Uptown basketball team of the past winter, and the Tennis Club, is a sure sign of a revival of sports that once made St. Paul famous. Everybody is invited to pay a visit to the Campbell gym and you are sure to leave feeling like a new person. ST. LOUISE LAYS CORNER STONE FOR ORPHAN HOME (Associated Negro Press.) St. Louis, Missouri, June 8—Recently the corner stone was laid for the St. Louis colored Orphan's Home on Goode avenue, between Kennerly and Cottage. This Home when completed will cost $120,000, the land being bought and the building erected through money raised by the colored people of the city. For years the Home has struggled for a meager existence but when Mrs. Malone agreed to assist the cause, the people rallied to her and the new building is to be the result. It will be a monument to actual racial achievement. Subscribe for the BULLETIN. NEGRO VOTES POWERFUL IN RECENT PRIMARIES Washington, June 8—It became known here that the Negro voters in Pennsylvania and Indiana played a very important part in the recent primaries, and that their influence and votes were used largely for Pinchot and Beveridge and against Alter and New. The World was informed by the local leader of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, that other leading Administration Congressmen are slated for slaughter by Negro voters because of their opposition to or indifference toward the Anti-Lynching and other uplife legislation in Congress. The Negro support, Representative Dyer said today, was responsible to a marked degree for the nominations of Pinchot and the defeat of New. He predicted Negroes would be heard from again before the campaign is over in most of the states where there is a Senatorial campaign.
