Historical Pick; Balt Paul, Minnesota Head VETS HOSPITAL ATTUSKEEGE HAS WHITE MANAGER Harding's Promise to Give Jobs to Race Doctors Fails to Materialize (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., May 26—The U. S. Veterans' Hospital imbrogilio is momentarily quiet. Those interested in manning the institution and seeing it successfully launched after surveying the situation devoid of sentiment and in the bright light of facts are said to believe that everything will work out satisfactorily in the end. The hospital was opened last Saturday with Col. R. H. Stanley, a white army physician, and a white staff and colored nurses in charge. So far as is known no colored doctors have been certified up to this time. Information circulated here is to the effect that the influences in the veterans' bureau who have staged the entire official opposition and who had control before the present director, General Hines, assumed charge, have set forth the claim that the positions open in the Tuskegee Hospital, said to be the finest the government has yet built, called for doctors especially qualified in certain technical practice which few colored physicians have had any reason to qualify themselves for. Medical men of national reputation have been conservative in discussing the situation. One of the best known physicians in the country who practices in Chicago said here recently, "I have not heard of Dr. George E. Cannon or Dr. J. E. Perry of the National Negro Medical Association being asked to confer on this matter. They would know better how to put their hands on the right men than anyone else in America." Dr. Perry of Kansas City, Missouri, is president, and Dr. Cannon of Jersey City is chairman of the executive association. In the meantime, Dr. Moton, who extended the government the invitation to come to Tuskegee, and whose friends assert he was genuinely interested in having the hospital manned by Negros has been subjected to attack because the white people of Alabama demanded the plum, and it was claimed compromised him into seeing their view. Dr. Moton's friends deny these charges as absurd and say that he practically broke with the white people in the town of Tuskegee and Montgomery on the subject. Others have criticized Henry Lincoln Johnson because of his activity in rounding up elegibles and "appointing" them, without consultation, but it is reported here upon good authority that he was commissioned by the "powers that be" to go out and bring in the men. As a lawyer, it is pointed out he would not necessarily be supposed to know all about medical qualifications. "He was obeying orders," said one Washington in on the know. On the other hand there are many who profess to believe that eventually control of the hospital will be turned over to the colored group. MEMPHIS MAN CHAMP OF TIRE CHANGERS (By The Associated Negro Press) Akron, Ohio, May 26,—"The champion tire changer of America," is the proud title now worn by Walter Thurman, colored tire mechanic of Memphis. He won the contest held here under the auspices of the National Tire Association from contestants from all parts of the United States and Canada. "Thurman changed a single tire in 29 seconds, breaking the 32% second record held by Kennedy, whom he displaces as champion. The Memphis lad changed six assorted tires, large and small, in five (5) minutes and 29 seconds, putting the tires on the rims and inflating them, ready to ride, in the time mentioned. Thurman has been a tire repair man in Memphis for 10 years. --- Alpha Phi Alpha Award Prize Mu Chapter of the Alpha Phi fraternity held their essay contest Sunday evening at Pilgrim Baptist church. This closed the fraternity's national Go to School campaign in the Twin Cities. The subject selected was "What I Have Gained From My High School Education." Excellent essays on this subject were submitted by Twin Cities students. John Lawrence of Central high school was awarded the prize of $25 for the best essay by the judges, who were Mrs. George Gooden, Attorney Geo. Hamilton and Roy Wilkins, Managing Editor of The Appeal. The strict adherence to the subject won the prize for Mr. Lawrence. First honorable mention was given to Miss Elizabeth Johnson of Central high school. Miss Alval Williams, a student in the Central high school of Minneapolis, received second honorable mention. Excellent addresses were given by Attorneys Wm. R. Morris and W. T. Francis. Rev. L. W. Harris highly commended the students on their ability and heartily indorsed the decision of the judges. The winner of the first prize is the son of Mrs. Rose Lawrence, 642 Rondo street, and is only 17 years old, and will be one of the graduates on the thirteenth of June. FAMOUS WORKS OF NEGRO ARTISTS GIVEN LIBRARY FAMOUS WORKS OF NEGRO ARTISTS GIVEN LIBRARY Mrs. W. T. Francis Presides in Masterly Manner; Presents Well Received. The auditorium of the Public Library was filled with friends and members of the Everywoman Progressive Council, who had assembled on Monday evening as their guests to a "Book Party," the first of its kind to be given in this city, with Mrs. W. T. Francis presiding. Over fifteen volumes by famous authors of the race were presented to the librarian. Mr. Wheelock made the acceptance speech in an eloquent manner. Several clubs and organizations sent their representatives, who presented books with appropriate speeches, many giving a brief synopsis of the book and its author. A beautiful record, "Caro Nome," by Mme. Antoinette Garnes, protegee of Mary Garden and a member of the Chicago Grand Opera company, was also presented to the library. The feature of the evening was a very interesting lecture given by Rev. Frederick M. Ellot of the Unitarian church, who held his hearers spellbound by his splendid review of "American Negro Poetry," by James Weldon Johnson. Rev. Elliot also (Continued on Page Two) FINEBERG PAYS $20 IN POLICE ABRAHAM Finberg, 767 Cedar street, who was accused of passing the gates of a University avenue street car on Dale and University last Tuesday by Patrolman J. Homer Goins, appeared in police court on Monday morning and was fined $20 by Judge Olson, who found him guilty on the evidence produced. Several witnesses were called who testified that Finberg deliberately passed the car gates. Incidents which occurred following the arrest caused the officers suspension by Chief Sommer for insubordination. Owing to the strenuous activities of the merchants in the vicinity of Dale and University avenue, the order of suspension was removed and Officer Goins has returned to his beat. ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JUNE 2. 1923 NEGRO VOTERS TO PLAY BIG PART IN NEXT ELECTION Democrats in Northern States Start Campaign to Educate Negro Voter CHANGE IN POLICIES EXPECTED BY G. O. P. Must Play a Different Kind of Politics Says Republican (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., May 26—There is something mystifying about the future political attitude of Colored America. Political wiseacres are silent. There seems nothing to do at present but think, think, think. All of the old time political dope having been miserably upset during the last two years, everyone is quite afraid to prophesy. "We don't know where we are going but we are on our way." It is all due to the fact that the children of Aunt Hagar are dividing their votes in places where the division means addition, and victory for others not accustomed, heretofore, to reap the benefit of the sundown ballots. Do you know that the Democrats of the big northern states have already begin a definite organized program looking to educate the Colored voters up to the importance, or necessity, of supporting a "Conservative Democrat for President?" This is true in New York, Chicago, and other centers. A heretofore Republican leader of national reputation said recently: "I have come to the place where I am willing to go out and work for a Democrat for President if they nominate the right man." This man has the power to influence thousands of votes. If there are those who are bold enough to come forth advocating the policy of "Stick to the Republican party," this.wing of Colored America always comes forth with the admonition of no less a person than President Harding, in his famous Birmingham address, in which the executive advised Colored America to divide their votes. "We are taking the President at his word," remarked the same previously mentioned national leader. Other Leaders Disturbed It is quite apparent that the big leaders of the party and the practical politicians are greatly disturbed by this new psychology of Colored America. "They are taking the President too literally," is the assertion of one of them. In the mean time serious conferences are in progress in this city between those responsible for Republican success in 1924. The issue is not being dodged or white-washed; it is being faced, bravely, it may be said. Listen to this from a prominent Senator, who hopes to continue with the title with-out the addition of "ex::" "The advice of the President is all right in theory, but I am certain it has cost a number of men their office, and if things keep on, others of us will follow in their wake. We must give honest consideration to Colored constituents if we expect to remain in office. It is, to say the least, galling to discover that our negligence and indifference are being realized upon by the Democrats whom we have always said are the Colored peoples' enemies. The Democrats are taking the kick out of that assertion by giving more consideration and appointments in state and local offices than we have done. From now on, we must play different kind of politics." In The Meantime In the meantime, the children of Aunt Hagar may well be described as "sitting on the lid." They are (Continued on Page 4) ST. PHILLIP'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH THE CHURCH Dyer Flays All Political Parties In Stirring Anti-Lynch Address Father Lealtad Has Many Fine Auxiliaries to Make Church Function Greater. One of the most progressive bodies in St. Paul is none other than St. Phillips Episcopal church, corner Aurora avenue and Mackubin street. The recent activities are well worthy of note in view of the fact that each individual organization of the church proper has contributed many good things for the mutual benefit of all. These various bodies have not only contributed much to the advancement of the church, but also have not failed to work in harmony to accomplish any desired aim. Established 25 Years Ago. St. Phillips church was first established 25 years ago. The beginning of the church was marked by services held in principle by Lay readers, which continued for several years. The first minister to be called was Father A. Cartier. Following Father Cartier came Father Edward Daniels. Both Fathers Cartier and Daniels May 28 will be a long remembered day in the history of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. It was on this occasion that Congressman Leonidas C. Dyer addressed the friends and members of that great body at Pilgrim Baptist church. The services were opened with a prayer by Rev. L. W. Harris, pastor. "Sorter Miss You" was rendered by the Harmony Quartette, composed of Messrs. Hickman, Jackson, Miller and Jackson. This splendid rendition was followed by remarks from Dr. Valdo Turner, president of the local branch, who has been an active officer for the past nine years. Dr. Turner briefly related the work of the local branch. That it had secured nearly one thousand members and had paid into the National office two thousand dollars. Congressman Dyer introduced. Mrs. Cora Grissom, president of the City Federation, told of the loyalty of the American Negro and of her association with the N. A. A. C. P., following which she introduced Mr. Dyer as the man who stood for the advancement of the Negro. Hearty applause greeted the speaker of the hour when he arose to address the audience. Congressman Dyer began: "I feel very much at home here. After attending Congress for twelve years I decided to try to have enacted in the Legislature a law to down mobs and lynching." The speaker told of the adverse circumstances met with in attempting to have the bill passed, and seriously regretted that the Negro has not taken more interest in helping to force an issue that had for its purpose his sole benefit. Congressman Dyer bitterly flayed contributed many things toward the building of a greater St. Phillips. Coining of Father Lealtad. Father A. H. Lealtad came to the church immediately after Father Daniels from St. Thomas church in Chicago, Ill. For the past 17 years the guidance of St. Phillips church has been administered by him. During the period of Father Lealtad's pastorage many thriving organizations have been added to the evergrowing church. These various organizations that have affiliated with the church are as follows: The Woman's Auxiliary, the Young Woman's Club, Bishops' Council and the Brotherhood of St. Andrew, all of which are doing splendid work. The church and rectory have recently been newly decorated and painted, which adds greatly to the natural beauty thereof. A group from the Woman's Auxiliary motored to Rochester, Minn., last week to attend the semi-annual convention held in that city. Father Legalt has accomplished a great work in St. Paul and is held in high esteem by every one who knows of the activities in which he has partaken. the republican senators who aided in filibustering the Anti-lynching Bill to its defeat." The Republicans are much to blame for the failure of the bill. They were more interested in the Tariff Bill than in one for the protection of human rights." Mr. Dyer expressed himself strongly against the Negro class leadership, saying, "If you will get together and stop fighting among yourselves for supremacy of office a great deal of good can be done. Your great fault lies within your ranks by failing to work in harmony." "If every contemptible coward who formed a lynching party were put in the penitentiary the evil could be soon uprooted." In describing the penalty as provided in the bill, Mr. Dyer said: "For every lynching the county would be penalized ten thousand dollars to be paid to the heirs of the victim. If there were no immediate relatives the fine will be paid into the U. S. Treasury. According to this plan every county would guard more carefully the welfare of each citizen. The speaker censured the pulpit for taking such a neutral stand in this great fight, which showed a seeming disposition of cowardice. The American white man is prone to accuse the Negro as being a confirmed rapist, said Mr. Dyer. "In the days of the Civil War thousands of male slaves were left to do work on the plantations and guard the wives and sisters of those who had gone to battle. During this entire period not one case of attack was charged against these men. G.A.R. Veteran Dies in Hospital Robert Morris died at the Anker hospital on Saturday morning, May 26, with complication of diseases. He was born in Rome, Ga., and was 72 years of age; he was a Civil War veteran, having served in Co. A, Seventh Illinois infantry. He was the last charter member of Mars Lodge, G. U. O. O. F. He was the last surviving colored member of a local G. A. R. post and member of the Pilgrim Baptist church. Funeral services were held at Mrs T. H. Lyles chapel, under the auspices of Mars Lodge, and member of the G. A. R. post, of which he was a member. A firing squad from the Sons of Veterans fired at the grave. The funeral was largely attended. He leaves to mourn his loss a daughter, Mrs. Wm, R. Godette, three grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Mr. Morris came to St. Paul in 1883 and has resided here ever since. GEO. W. HOLBERT TALKS FAGTS ON THE DYER BILL GEO. W. HOLBERT TALKS FAGTS ON THE DYER BILL Prominent Fraternal Man in Minneapolis Tells Opinion to the Bulletin. By Geo. W. Holbert (Special to Northwestern Bulletin) Congressman Leonidas Dyer on Missouri, author of the Dyer Antilynch bill, who is touring the country in the interests of the bill, spoke in St. Paul on last Friday evening at Pilgrim Baptist church, under the auspices of the St. Paul branch of the National Association for the advancement of colored people. About three hundred of the race people were present and some white people. Most of us have read or heard of the Dyer bill, which is or at least ought to be of vital importance to us. Probably there were very few of us who had any definite knowledge of the exact nature of the bill, and but small realization of the difficulties under which Congressman Dyer had labored in the promotion of this bill. In view of these things, his coming was looked forward to with more than usual interest. One thing was made quite clear. We were much enlightened as to the very important part which the National Association had played in preparing data and in numerous other ways assisting Congressman Dyer in the promotion and presentation of his bill. His own words were that "without the help of this organization I would have gotten nowhere." But probably the most salient part of his address was the (Continued on Page 4) WITHIN OUR GATES.

ELKS TO HAVE MORE THAN FIFTY BANDS The National Negro Business League Select Hot Springs August 15-17. (By the Associated Negro Press) Chicago, June 2.—Chicago, "top of the world" for Colored America, will be the great Mecca for tens of thousands of visitors this year, because of the many conventions to be held here, and others in the Middle West. Three of the big conventions will be right in the "Windy City." Thousands of visitors are arranging their tickets "via Chicago," going or coming, to many of the other conventions for, as one prospective visitor stated: "It doesn't seem like we have been in the great Middle West unless we spend some time in Chicago." Chicagoans are preparing to extend the traditional Chicago and Western welcome to all who come. The housewives are setting their house in order; the automobiles are being repainted when not replaced with new ones; the business men are having the thoroughfares put in "apple pie order" with new lights; the organizations and the society lads and lassies are fixing their dates already for public and private social events. J. A. Jackson, staff representative of The Associated Negro Press, has prepared the following schedule of 1923 conventions : There is every indication that the colored conventions this year will exceed even those of 1922, according to early activities that the different committees are exhibiting. For the number of visiting bands, the extent of sales with concession men, the public impression created and the hotel business, volume, the 1922 conventions were all remarkable. The weather breaks were, in the main, very favorable. This year the I. B. P. O. Elks of the World are slated for Chicago, and this central location should attract even more than the fifty brass bands that went to Newark. This occurs August 13-16. The National Negro Musicians meet July 24-26 in the same city this year. The National Negro Tennis Tournament meets there also. The National Negro Business League and its affiliated bodies have selected Hct Springs, Ark., August 15-17, for their meeting place and time. The Supreme Encampment of the Knights of Pythias will bring 30,000 uniformed knights to New York the week of August 20. The N. A. A. C. P., Kansas City, Mo., August 29-Sept. 5. The New York State Convention of the I B. P. O.-Elks of the World is set for June 20-30. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People occurs in Kansas City. The American Woodmen's conventions for the different districts are as follows: District No. 1, Oklahoma City, June 4-8; District No. 2, Charleston, S. C., May 14-15; District No. 3, Nashville, Tenn., June 4-8; District No. 4, Columbus, Ohio, July 16-20; District No. 5, Baltimore, August 6-10. The Shriners go to Indianapolis, August 6-12, and since there are more of the membership of this order in the cities of the Middle West than on the Eastern seaboard, it is fair to presume that more than the 11,000 people who went to Washington last year will be there. The Benevolent Protective Order of Reindeers meet the first Tuesday in September for three days in Baltimore, Md. Address Rev. Charles D. Cummings, Grand Dictator, Lutherville, Md. More favorable business and labor conditions will find a big reflection in the spending capacity of the crowds that follow these meetings.

Tried by Mr. Dyer is worthy of our appended to us, that if out of respect only, been given for the original purpose and real atmosphere. We have several men who intentions by filing for the senatorial office speak, why wasn't the occasion made at the appearance of each candidate. "No voter now is not the "party," but that puts himself as a Republican, but he adopts the Democratic party in Washington for the House to the extent that it might be men of Senator Underwood's type. Seems be remembered as the man whose need the defeat of the Dyer Bill. In press enemies" on the same night and on the same Congressman Dyer, seems somewhatION. We sincerely hope that the next of statesman and friends will result in his out of presenting his discourse without another type of presentation. We do not having our candidates explain their objective is a time and place for everything. We are forced to regret the fact that the splendid meeting held for Congressman Dyer had to assume a semi-political aspect. In all due respect to the various aspirants for the senatorial office, we cannot find a logical or feasible reason for the necessity of presenting any of them on this particular occasion. The entire discourse as offered by Mr. Dyer is worthy of our appreciation. It certainly seemed to us, that if out of respect only, the occasion might have been given for the original purpose and not polluted with a political atmosphere. We have several men who have announced their intentions by filing for the senatorial race. If one were invited to speak, why wasn't the occasion made a "free-for-all" and solicit the appearance of each candidate. The big issue with the Negro voter now is not the "party," but the man. Mr. Schall presents himself as a Republican, but he admits that he voted with the Democratic party in Washington for the purpose of organizing the House to the extent that it might be controlled by such gentlemen of Senator Underwood's type. Senator Underwood will always be remembered as the man whose filibustering activities caused the defeat of the Dyer Bill. In presenting one of his "friendly enemies" on the same night and on the same platform, as given Congressman Dyer, seems somewhat paradoxal to real appreciation. We sincerely hope that the next occasion given to our noted statesman and friends will result in his having the exclusive right of presenting his discourse without having it faltered by another type of presentation. We do not decry the advantage of having our candidates explain their objective, but we feel that there is a time and place for everything.

One of the good features that will result from the suggestions made by Mayor Nelson will be the placing of much needed sewers in several districts. The old method of providing sewerage taxed the property owner to the utmost and in most cases the property owner is the home builder and is least in position to afford great expenditure. The new system, when inaugurated, will place the sewerage on the bond system basis. The property owner will only pay an additional tax to the extent he becomes benefitted. The excess expenditure must be borne by the city, which will provide the necessary amount through a bond issue. Proper sewerage and healthful surroundings are inseperable. The early charter did not provide for a rapid growing city, and our city has for some time faced the unpleasant fact of not being in a position to provide such sanitary conditions as are desirable. With the charter so amended as to provide a method of financing the necessary improvements, the average taxpayer will be greatly relieved of many irksome necessaries. Many of us who are taxpayers have not concerned ourselves over municipal activities; yet there is where the greatest portion of your tax money is spent. We often see men digging long channels and placing so many steel pipes therein. We may halt our haste for a minute to investigate the proceedings, but seldom do we ask ourselves the question, "how much of this job am I paying for?" It will possibly be necessary for our own basement to become filled with water before the significance of sewerage question reaches us. Everything pertaining to any municipality should be the concern of every citizen and especially if he is a taxpayer. When we place a dollar into any of our own projects we usually want an itemized statement from the management as to how it was spent; still we are willing to hand out forty or fifty dollars twice per annum, for taxes, and feel non-interested about what becomes of it. We grant that the fiscal department of our city government spends our funds judiciously, but it should be the interest of every citizen to acquaint himself more on municipal affairs.

This program proved to be one of the most interesting ever given, and as Librarian Wheelock stated, the pioneer of its kind.

If there had ever been any doubt in anybody's mind as to whether or not we have been delinquent in our duty in this matter, certainly he removed the last vistage of doubt. Never have I listened to a more severe castigation of a whole community than we received from Congressman Dyer, and the worst of it was, that it was all true and we richly deserved every word he said. There was no display about this champion of ours; no flights of oratory. Just a plain, straight-forward presentation of a just cause. He impressed one as a man with a story to tell. One who knew his story by heart, and told it well. One could not doubt the man's evident honesty and sincerity of purpose. True, there were times, when, carried away by the positive knowledge of the many cruelties and injustices that are constantly being practiced on the people for whom he is pleading, that his feeling became intense; his language on these occasions was more positive than eloquent. And now that we heard the story from his own lips, that we know something definite of the battle that is being waged for our people, and have been awakened to our own laxity, that question arises what are we going to do? Are we going to continue in the passive state of the past or will we awaken to a realization of our full duty? I shall not attempt at this time to go into the merits of the National Association. But beyond any doubt it is the most potent factor of offense and defense that the race has. If this be so, then is there any reason why every col- PEOPLE'S MEAT and PROVISION CO.

They are looking with deep concern on the statements, interviews and public utterances of Henry Ford of Detroit; they are wondering what may be done with a possible "Third Party," and they are even studying the program of the reorganized Socialists.
