THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN MRS. TALBERT WINS MEDAL VOL.I, NO.22 RACE RIOT FAILS TO MATERIALIZE IN KIRVIN, TEX. RACE RIOT FAILS TO MATERIALIZE IN KIRVIN, TEX. Armed Men Still Guard Streets But Police Believe That Trouble Is Over. HELP FROM OTHER TOWNS DISPERSED BY SHERIFFS Trouble Starts When City Police Chief and Deputy Sheriff Tries to Arrest Man. (Associated Negro Press) Kirvin, Texas, June 16—Race riots reported as being feared near here, had failed to materialize. Armed men guarded the streets of Kirvin and a house occupied by Negroes near Simsboro, about five miles from here, but according to the police little further trouble was expected. Deputy Sheriffs and policeman from Mexia who hurried here when the reports first went out, returned to their homes and Freestone County officials informed many who had started for Kirvin that they should return as the Sheriff and his deputies had the situation under control. The reports of a riot followed attempts of the city Marshall of Kirvin, Otto King, and a Deputy Sheriff to arrest Leroy Gibson. Gibson is said to have escaped and was shot and captured. As the officers started to their automobiles, shots were fired at them and they returned the fire. Allie Gibson, a brother of the prisoner, was killed. The prisoner is said to have seized one of the officials and then was killed. Neither of the officers were injured.

CLERKS HONOR NATIONAL HEAD Chicago, Ill., June 16—The National Alliance of Postal Employees gave a banquet at the Appomattox Club, in honor of A. L. Glenn, of Atlanta, Ga., National President. The occasion was unique in the affairs, and was attended by nearly one hundred. Mr. Glenn has great hopes for a federation of all Colored government employees for advancement and protection. Statistics Show St. Louis Leads in Murders Max Mason Denied New Trial by Court Man Accused in Connection with Lynching, Denied New Trial by State Supreme Court. Duluth, Minn., June 16—Max Mason, who in June, 1920, was charged with assaulting a young white girl, was denied a new trial by the state supreme court Friday. Mason appealed from his conviction and sentence to life imprisonment in the St. Louis county district court on the ground that he was compelled to give evidence against himself before the grand jury. Judge Dibbell dissented. Trial of Mason followed the lynching of three men, circus attendants, in Duluth in 1920 by a mob that had been told men in the circus had assaulted a young white woman. Much evidence was brought up later to show that the men had not troubled the girl and that the story told the mob had been made up by a young escort of hers who had kept her out too late at night. When she was scolded at home she laid claim to having been assaulted. Thirteen men were placed in jail and seven tried. All save Mason were acquitted. Some of the best legal talent in the state went to the aid of the men, including Charles Scrutchins of Bemidji. Ferdinand Barnett of Chicago also fought for them. Tuskegee Principal Praises McCormick For Defending Haiti (Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June 16—Senator Medill McCormick of Illinois, the chairman of the Senate Select Committee to investigate the American Occupation of Haiti and the Dominion Republic, has just received a letter from Hon. Rob. R. Moton, Principal of the Tuskegee Institute. Senator McCormick and Mr. Moton conferred at considerable length a short while ago upon the situation in Haiti. Mr. Moton's letter reads in part as follows: "I wish to thank you for taking so much of your time, as busy as you were and are, to go into the matter as you did with reference to Haiti. I wish also to thank you for the unselfish and untiring interest you have been giving to that little unfortunate Republic. I have no doubt but that outcome will eventually be what you wish, and what we all wish. One think I am sure—if your ideas can prevail, in five or ten years the country will be on its feet." MARCUS GARVEY HERE IN INTEREST OF U. N. I. A The Honorable Marcus Garvey, president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, is a visitor in St. Paul this week. He comes in the interest of the U. N. I. A. and is on the last lap of a country-wide tour spreading his propaganda. Mr. Garvey has been well received in all the cities that he visited on his tour and the people have enjoyed listening to his orations on the aims and possible achievements of the U. N. I. A. Mr. Garvey will speak Friday and Saturday evening at St. James A. M. E. church. The Local No. 310 has made elaborate preparations for the coming of their leader AFRICAN CHURCH WORK FUND REACHING GOAL Baltimore, Md., June 16—Bishop W. Sampson Brooks is making a whirlwind campaign to raise $50,000 for the work of the A. M. E. church in West Africa. He has spoken in New England, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, during the past three weeks and has raised about $15,000. ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 1922. Chicago Judge Believes Crime Statistics Would Help to Check Crime Wave. (Associated Negro Press) New York, N. Y., June 16—St. Louis led the country in murders and homicides last year and had more than ten capital crimes for every one in New York, according to statistics gathered by Judge William N. Gemmill of Chicago and furnished to the Committee on Law Enforcement of the American Bar Association. The statistics collected by Judge Gemmill are the most reliable in existence according to Chairman William B. Swaney of the committee, who said that the lack of good crime statistics was one of the serious draw backs to the study of crime conditions in this country. While the record of St. Louis last year was the worst, Los Angeles stands pre-eminent as a center of crime on a seven-year survey. The criminals stay away from Delaware because of the whipping-post, Judge Gemmill finds. More than 1,600 criminals were lashed in England last year, a practice which he heartily commends. St. Louis had 426 murders in 1921 or fifty-three for each 100,000 inhabitants, Judge Gemmill reports. New York has one of the lowest scores among the big cities. "New York" said Judge Gemmill, "which people think is a very wicked city, is high up on the honor roll, so far as murder is concerned. St. Paul alone having fewer arrests for murders, while Chicago ranks third, Cincinnati ranks fourth, Buffalo fifth and New Orleans sixth. Harding Upheld in Stand on Dyer Bill Harding Upheld in Stand on Dyer Bill President Commended for Oenly Pledging Support to Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill (Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June 16—President Harding has stood four-square on his proposition of wiping away the stain of lynching from the banner of a free, orderly and representative democracy. During the very able inaugural address delivered by the President, he insisted that this stain should be wiped out. Since his inauguration he has stated openly that if an anti- lynching bill was passed, he would sign it. On June 1, a committee of young men representing the colored colleges throughout the nation were presented at the White House by Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, and they presented to the President a memorial asking that he continue to use his good offices to the end that an anti-lynching bill be placed upon the statutes. To those who assay to doubt the President's committal to this program it may be a surprise to know that the attitude of the President is to stand by the Republican platform touching this matter, to urge the passage of this bill through friends of the administration in Congress and to sign such bill if passed. This should remove every doubt in the minds of the most pessimistic as to where the administration stands on the question of lynching; and this delegation representative of the best of young colored manhood, left very much encouraged and felt assure that they might hope for the best results in that direction. WOMAN NOT GUILTY OF GRAND LARCENY CHARGE The case of Mildred Walker, who was under indictment by the Grand Jury on a charge of grand larceny, came up in District Court last Tuesday. She was found not guilty and was acquitted. Bulletin Opens Mill City Office Owing to the fact that Minneapolis is due more attention than we have been able to give it by working out of our St. Paul Office, the Bulletin will open its Minneapolis Office Monday, June 19.

(Associated Negro Press) Los Angeles, Cal., June 16—Three high officials and thirty-four alleged members of the Ku Klux Klan were indicted by the Los Angeles county grand jury on five counts of felony charges, in connection with a raid on Inglewood, near here, on April 2. The Klan officers were William S. Coburn, grand goblin of the Pacific domain and supreme attorney of the order; G. W. Price, king kleagle for the state of California, and N. A. Baker, kleagle or organizer for the county of Los Angleles. Coburn and Price are understood to be in the east. Although the three officials have been suspended, according to word from Atlanta, headquarters of the klan, they have continued to function here and have been recognized by klansmen as having possession of all the authority of their offices. Knife Carver Gets Honorable Praise from Pres. Harding (Associated Negro Press) Savanah, Ga., June 17.—Alto Branch, one of the best known Negro pen knife carvers in the country who has received a very highly commendable letter of acknowledgement from G. B. Christian, secretary to President Harding, thanking him for the Shriner's cane which he carved for the president. The cane which was sent to Wasington about a month ago, is a beautiful piece of work and was ornamented with wonderfully perfect carvings emblematic of the Shriners. The work of Branch has been highly commented on in all parts of the country. In Cleveland, Ohio, he was awarded, several months ago, first premium in this art and in other places he has received much recognition for his handiwork. He has carved walking canes for several men of high life, among them John D. Rockefeller. 11 COLORED GRADUATES IN TWIN CITY SCHOOLS From the various schools and colleges in the Twin Cities there are eleven colored students who receive their diplomas this week.

DRIVER GETS TEN DAYS IN JAIL FOR SPEEDING W. M. Pugh, employed at the Phelp's hotel, Minneapolis, was arrested last Saturday and sentenced to ten days in the St. Paul workhouse when he pleaded guilty to driving his car forty-five miles an hour.

Mrs. Sarah Williams, keeper of the rooming house, was the complaining witness. T. J. Newman appeared as attorney for McGowan. (Associated Negro Press) PRICE, 5 CENTS DAL GIVEN SPINGARN MEDAL FOR SAVING DOUGLASS SHRINE Noted Club Worker is First Woman to be Honored With Spingarn Medal. RAISED $10,000 FOR FRED DOUGLAS HOME Work Considered as The Greatest Public Service During Year of 1922. New York, June 16—From art to uplift. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert has been awarded the Spingarn medal for the year 1921-22. Last year the award went to Charles Gilpin, distinguished Race actor. The medal will be conferred during the annual convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Newark Tuesday. Presentation will be made by Rabbi Solomon Foster of that city. In making the award the committee, composed of Bishop Hurst, Dr. John Hardy Dillard and Prof. John Hope, issued the following statement, "The award was made to Mrs. Mary B. Talbert in consideration of her services in organizing the women of the country so that the debt was paid off the home of Frederick Douglass, the home restored and made a shrine in memory of the great Douglass, also because of the fact that she represented the Race women of America at the International Council of Women held in Norway. The award was made specifically for the foregoing reasons. However, the committee could not fail to take into consideration also the fact that Mrs. Talbert was twice president of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs and that all her life she has been identified with uplift work, religious and civic, and has been a leader of the women of her Race." The work of redeeming the home of the late Frederick Douglass as a shrine for members of the Race consumed nearly two years. During all that time it was the record of service tht Mrs. Talbert made as one of the directing influences in the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs that caused such widespread response to the appeal for $10,000 to consummate the work. Mrs. Talbert is the first woman to be honored with the Spingarn medal, which is an award to that member of the Race who has rendered the greatest public service during any one year. JURY FREES BACON ON MURDER CHARGE John Bacon was acquitted of murder in the first degree by a jury in the course of Judge C. C. Haupt, on Wednesday, June 14. Bacon was accused of shooting James Branson, a son-in-law, on April 30, 1922. It was alleged that Bacon shot Branson in the heart after an argument at the corner of Grove and Mississippi streets about 6 p. m. on the evening of April 30. The jury, consisting of seven men and five women, returned a verdict of not guilty in less than an hour. J. Louis Ervin was attorney for the defense.

To the thousands of Colored graduates who are emerging at this season of the year from hundreds of institutions of learning through-out the coun- try, the question, “What's Next” in their life is of vital importance. While the closing days o1 school, the commencement and the timely advice and encouragement of commencement speakers are all welcome, what the aftermath, or rather what the future holds for them, if it has not ai- ready been prepared by their parents, is a most perplexing question and a problem which to solve requires exertion to the fullest extent of the ad- vice nearly every commencement speaker may give. In the separate school, the graduate is fully aware of the obstacles which confront his progress —prejudice and discrimination—and he goes forth prepared to meet these circumstances but in the mixed school, the problems of the Colored grad- wate in particular, like the problems of his white brother's are spoken of as being similar. He is not taught that because his color is black, his chances of making good, of doing something in this world are any less than his white brother’s but he told that his making is within himself, that the world is full of opportunities and that with the necessary qualifications, he must fearlessly plunge into the turmoil of life, working faithfully until success in the face of failures, is his reward. If Colored graduates would forever bear in mind that the part they have to play is carrying the banners of a struggling race and would relentlessly go into the various fields for which they have equipped themselves, self-confident and satisfied that if color played no part in following their chosen vocation, their services would be as highly efficient as any, the effects of their determination would be seen. Of course, reason, common-sense, diplomacy and courage must be used in seeking the ends desired. The application of the same is ma- terial in any achievement. They must be applied. But on the other hand, there are far too many Negroes who are allowing their dollars to get rusty when they might be at work vested in some busi- ness venture. Too many of our people refuse to make opportunities for our young men and women then say, “It’s too bod he had to go to mopping Mr. Charlie's floor.” It is too bad. If our young men and women are to continue to leave school prepared, full of ambition and pep, it is not altogether fair that they should seek the “other fellow” for a “chance” as often as they are made to. Negroes must get together and discuss, solve and remedy the situation. We have too many doctors waiting table, too many lawyers por- tering, too many skilled men and women doing un- skilled work and too many dollars parked earning 4% or less when they could be earning a higher rate of interest, giving employment to some of our own men and women if they were but invested wisely in business ventures of our own. Yea, far too many. So, when our graduates step from the school- house door, may they remember these lines of the English poet, Henley : “Tt matters not how straight the gate, How charged with punishment the scroll Tam master of my fate, Tam captain of my soul.” What's next in their life, in a measure, is up to them. Down in Tampa, Florida, the Negro Chamber of Commerce has petitioned the city authorities for a play and recreation ground for Negro ‘chil- dren. Ah! here’s a good job for our Reverend George Washington Camp. Maybe the service he could render the Colored people of Tampa would be more appreciated and considered as a real serv- ice there more so than his work along the “play- ground line” in St. Paul, because the people there want a separate plaground. Anyway, he is a good man for the job and there’s always room for a good man. Half the victories of life come from a confident belief that one ‘is going to win. The world has little use for the man who is continually “singin ‘em.” Monday is election day. Every person who is eligible to vote should go to the polls and cast their yote. Now don’t forget, GO TO THE POLLS AND VOTE MONDAY. It’s your duty. CONTEMPORARIES oe eee The Republic of Liberia has been bought by the United States for a five-million dollar “loan.” Who sold Liberia? Did President King and plenary commission sell it, or did the voters of Liberia sell it? What Hayti has been resisting with its life, Liberia has accepted for five million dollars. We could hardly expect Mr. Harding to get out of Hayti while he is buying his way into Liberia. We have more respect for Hayti, for it took five million bullets to accomplish in Hayti what a mere five.million dollars has done in Liberia. And then, too, LIBERIA WILL NOT GET THE MONEY. The money will go to “the financial commis- sioner of Liberia,” a white American to be appointed by the American government, to his large force of high- salaried clerks and assistants, and the rest will go to pay off debts whieh Liberia is said to owe to big white American firms, and to build such roads and “transporta- tion and communication facilities” as the financial com- missioner may deem necessary to make it the easier for him to hold and control Liberia. This one white American will have more power in Liberia than all the Liberian government. If the small- est clerk in the financial commissioner's office should take his gun and walk in and kill a dozen members of the Liberian government, including the President himself, this little clerk could not be arrested and tried by the government of Liberia without the consent of the one white man, the financial commissioner. The clerk could not even be fired by the people of Liberia, for “ all mem- bers of the financial commission shall be designated by the President of the United States, to serve during his pleasure,” and Liberia has signed up to give them “im- munity” in all cases whatsoever, unless the financial commission may agree to waive immunity in some parti- cular case. This is an exact pattern of the system for dealing with Negroes in "Mississippi; one white man is appointed to look after the whole lot of them and they have no appeal save through this one white man, and generally this one white man soon finds himself a convenient Ne- gro Whom he can “trust”, and there there is “nothing doing” in any Negro case or cause unless it is brought through this narrow channel, even though the white man may be a narrow bigot and the Negro a simlin-head. Surely President C. D, B. King knows the meaning of English words and knew that he was selling Liberia, body and soul, when he signed that treaty. And Mr. Harding and Mr. Hughes, both members of the Baptist Chureh, knew that they were driving a hard bargain against the poor. It would have been much better for Li- beria to have decided to do without these “public works” until they could save the money and pay cash for them. If they can pay back five million dollars AND the interest AND at the same time pay two or three hundred thous. and dollars a year to a whiole host of white American officers AND at the same time have all their money “handled” by the very fellows to whom they owe the debt,—if they can ever in God’s world do this, they could ten times as easily have saved up five million dollars and paid cash for “improvements.” As it is now, it is just as it is in backwoods of Arkansas where “the white folks” sell all the cotton, handle all the money, do all the “figgering” and will some day let Sambo know how nearly he is out of debt. THE NEXT OLYMPIC GAMES. It is prabably in the best Interests of track athletic that the Olmpiec games for 1924 and 1928 be held on the European continent, and Americans who had noped that Los Angeles might be chosen for one or the other of these meets will easily reconcile themselves to the decision which awards thm to Paris and Amsterdam. Track and field sports are enjoying an increased popularity in Eu- rope, and American’s margin of superiority is no longer so wide as it formerly was. This is as it should be, It the spirit of the game means anything, it means that a good race lost is better than a poor one won. The con- tinuance of the Olympics, in fact, depend upon the stim- ulation of interest among all nations, and the efficacy to this end of holding at least two more successive meet- ings in Europe is apparent in the advantages to them in travel, training and publicity which will result. As for the American athletes, a trip to Paris or Am- sterdam should be no great hardship, but, indeed, just one more incentive to greater effort. It is true that an- other trip, managed in a bungling and inefficient man- ner, like the last one, would soon change the current ideas on the subject, but now that the American Olympic ‘committee has been properly re-organized, the danger of ‘a repetition of that experience is not great, ‘The affairs of the American squad at Antwerp were miserably hand- led, but the athletes gave a splendid performance for all that, and the victory was gloriously and deservedly ours. At the same time some defects were apparent in the training of our athletes for the distance runs. In these events, we hardly were up to the best our competitors could produce, and the suggestion has been put forward that it has been a mistake in American training methods to bring the athletes who enter them to the same fine aes which has been the secret of our success in the sprints, jumps and hurdles. At any rate, by whatever ‘secret of training, European or American, the effort to develop better distance men should be made, and our next ovate team should be just as well represented in this branch of the sport as it is in the others. ; —Pioneer Press.

NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN ARTICLE OF | __THE WEEK Jasper and Walter, two elderly men of dark complexion, being the inhabitants of Chicago, a city of e- ‘normous wealth as well as profound erste were sitting on the door | steps of Jasper's residence, where, jas they conversed on different sup- jects, noticed the passer-by, animats in the street, wagons, and so on, now then speaking about these “psy- chology conceptions of externalities,” Jasper was an ex-farmer, while, on the other hand, Walter was a Presser, one who cleaned and press- ed clothes. Henee, both of them be- ing of different vocations, Jasper wht had principally lived in the country as a farmer, and Walter, an inhabt- tant of the great city of Chicago as @ pressér, they had quite a variety ‘of subjects to speak of; thus, that Jasper was a great thinker and an- | tiquarian, he sald: “Walter, let us go into my study, where, upon your entrance, I will show you many things of interest.” “Ah, what have you got now, Jas. ber, that is so interesting?” “Many things.’ “A variety of philosophies, scienti- fics, and artisties, presumably.’ | “Precisely.” “Well, then, let us enter.” “So be it. They entered a magnificently de- corated room, a chamber wheretn Jasper had various articles of ancient times; here he showed Walter pic- tures of Ethiopian kings, queens princes, and princesses, African sages and tribes, old mirrors that were used by beautiful Ethiopian women, and a great many other things. Wal- ter was an antiquarian himself; how- erat he had never seen such rare ms- terial before. He with eyes of pro- found attention, looked as if he had ‘never looked before. This being the ae Jasper, as he picked up a pét- ‘trait of Tarakos, the Ethiopian king ‘of Egypt, said: | “Within my hand I hold the inspi- ration of Africa! This king, set down by Manetho, is the heart and soul of Ethiopia, the ruler of Libia! This ‘black lord of the dark continent is ‘part of myself; though he is dead ‘physically, he is-alive psychologically, ‘for he is in my mind, my imagination where, as I see him dressed in rich garments, and mounted on an ele- phant of opulent decoration, I do see him leading thousands of soldiers. “Stop, stop, Jasper!’ “why?” “Because you make me feel like being back in Africa.” “But Africa of today is not like the Africa during the time of Tarakos.” “True.” “Nevertheless, the land of Libya is our original home. We have been brought here to be Americanizd.” “Ah, so I see—we are Ethiopian- ized Americans!” “Ethiopianized Americans we CAMP PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 8th and Emerson North SERVICES 8 P.

(Associated Negro Press) Jacksonville, Fla., June 16—The Administration Building of the Florida Memorial College, formerly the Florida Baptist Institute, at Live Oak, was completely destroyed by fire on the 6th of May, on which there was but little insurance. This school was one among the first established in Florida after the Civil War for the higher education of colored people. It was founded in 1873 by the Baptist Church, and has done splendid service through all these years, regardless of religious denominational lines, giving to the state of Florida many of its foremost men and women in different walks of life. The value of the property which was burned is easily $20,000. The origin of the fire is unknown, though not believed to be the act of incendiarism. A tract of land, 930 acres, has been purchased near the city of Orlando, on which it has been decided to erect the new college, moving it from Live Oak, the present location, which is right in the heart of that city, and much cramped for necessary room. A drive has been put on by the Baptists of Florida to raise $60,000, and begin building and have things in readiness to open school there next fall. ACTOR DROWNED WHILE IN BATHING AT WINONA Winona, Minn., June 16—Maxie McCree, 23 years old, advertised as headliner in "Scandals," a musical revue billed for Winona Opera House was drowned while in bathing at the Mississippi River bathing beach here last week. The revue engagement was cancelled as a result of the accident. The body was recovered by firemen who were summoned when McCree failed to rise after he had dived into the water. McCree had a wife and one child living at their home in Chicago, according to George Brown, McCree's partner in the dancing act. Bathing beach officials claim that this is the first fatality in the history of the beach.

American Woodmen Meet in Savannah Supreme Commander White Delivers Fine Oration at Annual District Meet. (Associated Negro Press.) Savanah, Ga., June 17—The American Woodmen took possession of Savanah for the occasion of their annual District Convention for the territory of Georgia, Florida and South Carolina. The City by the Sea has witnessed many such assemblages, but it is conceded that for genuine enthusiasm, pride and loyalty, distinguished representation, nicety of arrangement and the superior quality of the whole convention program, the American Woodmen have given Savanah a praiseworthy demonstration, which has not failed to impress the citizens as being one of the finest gatherings ever witnessed here. West Grand Street was the scene the Convention Headquarters located at St. Philips A. M. E. Church, where the visitors were assigned to various Company of ladies from Augusta homes. The arrival of the Uniform caused a mild sensation on the Broadway as they marched to the Headquarters to register. In an orderly and efficient way the entire convention delegation was enrolled and assigned before the close of the afternoon. At St. Philips A. M. E. church the public, local members and delegates witnessed the grand opening exercises. Many distinguished citizens of Savanah extended cordial welcomes to the Woodmen. The "tidbit" of the evening, of course, was the address of the Hon. C. M. White, Supreme Commander, who electrified the vast audience with his eloquence and profound logic. Mr. White was accorded an ovation at the opening and close of his spirited discourse. The platform presented a pleasing spectacle with its grand array of the select of Savanah and the distinguished-looking officers of the Supreme Camp and of the convention.
