The invocation by the Reverend Jason Noble Pierce, of the First Congregational Church, of Washington, began the exercises and was followed by an overture by the R. O. T. C band after which the Honorable William H. Lewis, of Boston, Massachusetts, former assistant Attorney General of the United States delivered the Commencement Address choosing as his subject "A Plea for the Reign of the Law." Mr. Lewis said:
Mr. Lewis' Address
"When I stood here last, I did not hear the peaceful bells calling men and women to the recitation hall, or chapel for a period of study and meditation; but this campus resounded with arms, with the tramp of marching men. I heard the bugle call to the assembly, and there passed in review the Students Army Training Corps, 457 men, the very pick and flower of our schools and colleges. Howard University, nestling within the shadow of the Capitol supported increasingly, by the Nation itself for the education of the colored youth, could not fail to answer the country's call for trained leadership and unselfish service. The spirit of her great founder and inspirer, that great Christian soldier and patriot, General O. O. Howard, a name worthy to stand in history by the side of Godfrey de Boulion and Sir Philip Sidney keeps its vigil here. In his spirit the men of Howard went forth to the war. The University will ever cherish the memory of Fairfax, Proctor, Davis, Summers Cork and Carter who gave their all to country and humanity—
"To make the next age better for the last."
In the words of another line of Lowell's commemoration ode—
"We welcome back our bravest and our best."
To our living heroes, young Dent, Goodloe, Curley, Jones, and Heslip, be ever the pride and glory of Alma Mater."
"I deprecate the recent attempt in some quarters upon a plea of sincerity and truth to destroy the splendid idealism with which the American youth went forth to war, by asserting they were 'afraid to fight'. I rather cherish the idealism of the great leader who said, 'That our object is to vindicate the principles of peace and justice in the life of the world, as against selfish and autocratic power; that they went forth to fight for democracy, for the right of those who submit to authority to have a voice in their own governments, for the rights and liberties of small nations'—as well as the great. Victory of the Allies was a triumph in part at least, of those great ideals."
"Have we colored Americans a right to claim a share in the fruits of victory? Have we a right to speak of the lessons of war? When the age-long conflict between the Teuton and Gaul for dominion and power and glory had once more set Europe aflame, and the conflagra-

tion was extending wider and farther to other nations, and the whole structure of our modern civilization menaced, when the honor of America was assailed, her prestige among nations challenged, the rights of her nationals upon the high seas violated in contemptuous disregard of all law, the colored American asked only for a chance to prove his fidelity, loyalty and devotion to American institutions and ideals. Half a million men filled the ranks of our armies; two hundred thousand went over the seas to serve in France and Italy. Whether with Depot brigades the Stevadore regiments, the Engineers, so-called, doing the menial work of the army they did not complain, they were happy in such service. Along that "far flung battle line" from the
Yser to the Marne, with the fighting units of the army they bravely met death in every conceivable shape. Their blood and bones mingled with the sacred soil of France, will nourish the tree of liberty for a thousand years, and make 'Liberty, fraternity and equality' a thing worth fighting for, and if need be, worth dying for. Let us believe that in falling upon the field of battle, 'their uplifted eyes caught the vision of a liberated world,' in which equal justice and democracy shall rule', not for some men but for all men; not for white men alone, but for brown, black, yellow and all the children of men."
"The problems of the world today are not only economic readjustment, the reconstruction of devaed regions, the restoration of public order—these follow naturally in the wake of war; but the rebuilding of our civilization along lines which give hope of its permanence, and perpetuity."
"The Academic classes of 1921 go forth with an opportunity for service such as comes to few generations of college bred men and women. The lessons for the hour the lessons that I would have you go forth this day, and impress upon your fellows, is the lesson taught by the great World War, that the maintenance of the supremacy of the law, is the first duty of man——".
"The rule is simple. If each individual keeps to his own orbit; if each nation keeps in its own path there can be no friction no clash no strife. The action of the individual, and the nation may be limited and circumscribed by law, but there will still be freedom of motion sufficient to insure the individual and collective progress and development of the human race."
"I cannot doubt that out of the noise and din of the present conflict, the harsh, discordant sounds of battle and strife, will come a purer harmony, a symphony divine in which all the children of men, may rejoice."

SEVERAL GRADUATE FROM PUBLIC SCHOOL
The Monitor Notes With Pleasure A Marked Increase In The Number of Pupils of Our Race Who Have Shown The Grace of Perseverance.—Three Graduate From Central and Commercial Respectively And One From South Will Continue Studies.
It is gratifying to chronicle the fact that seven colored pupils are graduated from Omaha High schools this week and a larger number than ever before have finished the eighth grade and will enter High school in the autumn. To the June High school graduates should be added one who completed the night High school course and received her diploma in March. This makes the number for this year eight, which is a most gratifying increase. While many students of our race finish the eighth grade and enter High school far too many drop out before completing the higher course. That there has been such decided increase over former year is gratifying. Another noteworthy fact is that all of these students are ambitious to continue their studies and hope to be able to enter college. The Monitor hopes that their wishes may be realized.

The graduates from Central High are James Tyree Lewis, William Chambers and Gladys Edrose Brown; from Commercial High, Orlo South, Frances Darnell Gordon and Elizabeth Usher; and from South High, Cerrelda Madeline Tucker, Mrs. Hazel Lewis, a busy housewife, and the mother of two children, found time to take a two years night course in the High School of Commerce from which she received her diploma in March.
William Chambers
William Chambers, son of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Chambers, was born in Mississippi. The family moved to Omaha four years ago, where William entered Central High. One of his chums says, "Will's a shark in mathematics." He has made a good record. He is first sergeant of Company B. Last year he won the individual drill medal for his company. He's a good athlete. When asked by the Monitor, what he intended to do Will replied, "I intend to stay out of school and work for a year to help my father pay for our home; then I want to take a job."

Cerreida M. Tucker
Cerreida Madaline Tucker, daughter of Mr and Mrs. George Tucker was born in Watonga, Okla. Her record in South High has been excellent. She graduates with 37 credits 32 being required. Her average has been 90 and she has been exempted from all final examinations during her four years. She is a member of the Story Teller's League and has served on reception committee for the Nebraska State Teachers Association for two consecutive years. Miss Tucker intends to teach school for a year possibly in South Dakota and the following year enter the University of Chicago.

He holds several medals. Orlo expects to enter college, but which college has not yet been decided.
Mrs. Hazel Lewis, whose maiden name was Terry, is the wife of J. D. Lewis. She has always been studious and ambitious to improve herself along all lines. Not only does she assist her husband in his business, and

James Tyree Lewis, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Lewis was born at Monticello, Ark., but was reared in Omaha, where he attended Long, Kellom, and Howard Kennedy grade schools. He has made a good rank in scholarship, athletics and military tactics at Central high. He rose from a private in the High school cadets to captain, the highest rank yet attained by any colored student in the high school.
Mrs. Hazel Lewis is active in religious and philanthropic work, but she found time to take a course in the High School of Commerce, while not neglecting her home and two children. Mrs. Lewis is to be commended for her spirit and ambition.

Frances Darnell Gordon
Frances Darnett Gordon, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gibson D. Gordon, was born in Omaha, and attended only one grade school, the Lothrop, from which she always received an A card. She has been on the honor roll at Commercial High during her entire course, and is exceptionally talented in music, assisting Mrs. Florentine F. Pinkston in teaching. She is a member of the Primor Debating club, and popular with teachers and classmates. Frances will enter the Nebraska State University at Lincoln.
Elizabeth Usher finished her high school course at a Presbyterian school in Tennessee, but has taken a course in business, stenography and typewriting at Commercial high where she has the reputation of being one of the most accurate in the school on taking dictation. Miss Usher is employed in the office of The Monitor
To all these graduates and those passing from the grades The Monitor extends hearty congratulations and best wishes.

CLYDE MANNING TO GET NEW TRIAL JULY 30
Colored Farm Boss Who Carried Out His Master's Orders on "Murder Farm." Sentenced to Life Imprisonment, Appeals Case.
NEW YORK, June 16—Walter F. White, Assistant Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, returned last Thursday after a personal investigation of the recent race riot in Tulsa, Oklahoma, saying that between 150 and 200 Negroes were killed in the riots and at least 50 white persons. Mr. White declared that the riot was largely due to a misuse of the word "attack" and "assault", the impression being given that a colored man had attempted rape upon a white girl whereas he had merely stumbled in an elevator and in attempting to recover his balance stepped on her foot.
"Having been sworn in as a deputy sheriff and having been on patrol as such during the Tulsa riot," said Mr. White today, "I am able to state that the Tulsa riot in sheer brutality and wilful destruction of life and property stands without a parallel in America.
"Abuse and misuse of the word assault caused the entire conflagration. A white girl operating an elevator in a public building, declared that a colored boy had attempted to assault her. Without stopping to inquire, and without considering the utter impossibility of criminal assault being perpetrated in broad open daylight in the public elevator of a public building, on a principal street of a town of 100,000, a senseless mob set out to avenge the honor of white womanhood"
"As a result, between 200 and 250

COVINGTON, Ga., June 16—
Clyde Manning, convicted and
sentenced to life imprisonment
for the murder of Lindsey Peterson one of the victims of the Jasper county "murder farm",
late Tuesday evening appealed
for a new trial and Judge John B. Hutcheson set the hearing of the motion for July 30, in Decatur.
COVINGTON, Ga., June 16—
Amid scenes entirely different from those enacted a short month ago when John Williams, owner of the Jasper county "murder farm" was sentenced to life imprisonment for the brutal killing of peons on his farm, Clyde Manning, colored foreman of the farm, was found guilty of complicity in the killing, and sentenced to life imprisonment late last Tuesday evening. Manning's conviction and sentence close the second chapter to a disclosure of scenes enacted in the South, which has stirred the entire country by its barbarism and ingenious cruelty.
Plea for New Trial Granted
Immediately following the return of the jury with its verdict of "gulless with a recommendation for mercy," Marvin Underwood leading counsel for the defendant, filed the appeal for a new trial, and Judge Hutcheson set July 30, as the date. Attorney Underwood based his motion for a new trial upon the fact that all of the testimony for the defendant had not been made clear enough the jury, and that new and additional testimony, which had been withheld for various reasons, would be brought to bear upon the jury, in an

white and colored citizens are known to have been killed, an unknown number of colored men, women and children were burned alive, 44 blocks of business and residential property valued at a million and one-half dollars were destroyed, and everlasting damage done to the name of Tulsa and Oklahoma.
"In justice it must be said that a large percentage of the white inhabitants condemned in unmeasured terms the outrage which has been perpetrated. The Salvation Army, the Red Cross, local relief agencies and churches have done commendable work in providing food, clothing and shelter for the destitute victims of the riot.
"Tulsa's experience is exceedingly important in that conditions which led to its night of terror exist in many other cities, North and South, and unless unusual efforts are used the gravest consequences are to be feared. Some of the white citizens of Tulsa are attempting to blame the riot on Negro 'radicalism.' When I questioned them regarding the nature of this radicalism I found invariably that it consisted of demands by Negroes that the federal Constitution be enforced and that lynching, peonage, disfranchisement and Jim-Crowism be abolished.
"There will be a state investigation of the riot but in the opinion of the citizens of Tulsa it will amount to nothing. The Tulsa riot has convinced me that the only hope of averting repetitions of it lies in federal interference."

effort to have a more favorable verdict returned.
Takes Verdict Calmly
Of all the people in the courtroom, Manning seemed to be the calmest of all. True, he evinced great interest in the testimony of all the witnesses, and when called to the stand, told of the hapenings of the "slave farm" told by himself so often before, in a clear, firm voice, and without variation.
The only time he seemed to show any anxiety at all was when the jury filed into the room, after being out but 40 minutes. When the jury entered, Manning threw away the cigarette which he was smoking. As the court was called to order, he looked expectantly at the 12 solemn faced men, within whose hands his life had been entrusted as though endeavoring to read from their countenances what the final verdict would be. He cupped his chin in his hands, leaning far forward in his chair.
"Have you gentlemen reached a verdict?" asked the court.
The foreman nodded affirmatively.
"Receive the verdice please, Mr. Solicitor."
When the word "guilty" was uttered, Manning seemed to lose his self control for a moment, but when the recommendation for mercy followed, he sat up an expression of relief appearing on his face.
"Stand up, Manning," said Judge Hutcheson.
Manning obeyed, rising to his full height. Then not unkindly, the Judge said, "Clyde, the jury has found you guilty with a recomendation for mercy, and the sentence of the court is that you spend the rest of your life in the penitentiary."
OMAHA BRANCH N. A. A. C. P.
HAS LARGE ATTENDANCE
The N. A. A. C. P. met Sunday afternoon at Pleasant Green Baptist church. The edifice was crowded. Tulsa refugees were expected to speak, but in this the audience was disappointed. President Black presided. In the absence of the expected speakers, the Rev. John Albert Williams was asked to give the facts on Tulsa as he had received them from correspondents. This he did. The sum of $68.00 was contributed for the N. A. A. C. P. Tulsa Relief Fund which is being collected at the New York office. Other contributions are expected to increase this sum. The next meeting will be held Sunday afternoon at Pilgrim Baptist church.

THE truth about Tulsa is sickening. It is a sad, sad commentary on the vaunted and boasted "white man's civilization." For it is "the white man's civilization", that is on trial, not the black man's for are they not fond of proclaiming that this is "a white man's country", in which "white supremacy must be maintained"? And yet savage outbursts of this character, growing in violence and frequency, would seem to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that the white man is destroying his civilization by ruthlessly trampling the law, the only safeguard of civilization, under his feet and giving full leash to the basest and most brutish passions. A black-skinned youth accidently steps on the foot of a white-skinned girl in an elevator. An altercation follows. The youth flees. The usual charge which inflames men is insinuated, if not directly charged by the daily press of that city. Threats of lynching are made. Members of the boy's race determine to protect him. From bitter experience, many have learned that they cannot depend upon the officers of the law to protect a prisoner's life, if his skin be black and he charged with a certain crime. The pity of this! It is pathetically tragic and bodes disaster. Whites gather to lynch a black boy. Blacks assemble to prevent it. The latter are lead by an ex-service man, a black soldier who had crossed the sea to fight for democracy. A significant fact, please note it well. A clash ensues. It widens into warfare. Long pent hatred for the black race that would presume to defend itself is given vent. Homes of innocent persons are fired by inflammable bombs we are advised, from airplanes, as well as by torches from hoodlums. Thousands are rendered homeless and reduced to poverty. Many are killed, hundreds are wounded. Carriage, arson, murder results apparently from a trivial incident. Not so. This trivial incident was but the match which exploded the mine which had been carefully laid. Vicious propaganda of racial inferiority and degeneracy, emphasized and encouraged by segregation and jimcrowning laid the mine in Tulsa as it did in East St. Louis, Atlanta, Washington Chicago and Omaha, which issued in this, the latest explosion of inhuman and hellish hatred. The same propaganda is laying and charging mines in other large centers of population north as well as south, which needs but some trivial incident to give us another Tulsa.
Tulsa has its lessons, its solemn warning for America; for black America no less than for white America. May we all be wise to heed the message given, to learn the lessons taught. The black American must not lose heart. He must continue to be law-abiding and self-respecting, never becoming the aggressor in wrong-doing, but ready to die in his own defense. The white American must cease his contemptuous regard for the black American as a creature without the law and stand for justice and the supremacy of law. There should be kindly, sympathetic contact between both groups each standing for law and order and the upholding not of "a white man's civilization" but of a Christian civilization in which all men are regarded as brethren.

There are also 15 secret indictments, several against suspects who have not yet been arrested, and others for lesser offenses. In connection with the wholesale assault of the schooner's crew. Judge Bertram L.

Shearers in Australia are paid by the number of sheep they shear, but the ranch helpers are paid by the week. Averaging everything, from young wethers, which are hard, to old ewes, which are easy, a good man will shear about 90 to 100 sheep a 'day'. The actual record is 327 sheep shorn by a Queensland shearer in nine hours. And other big records have been made. But that was probably years back with the 'blades,' when the fleeces were five-pound and six-pound, and not nine-pound and ten-pound, as they are today.

RECITAL BY PUPILS OF
MRS. J. ALICE STEWART
A large and appreciative audience assembled in Grove Methodist Episcopal Church Monday night and was well repaid by the excellent program given by the pupils of Mrs. J. Alice Stewart, a teacher of thirty years' experience, who has done effective work in musical education among our people in this city. The program was a long and varied one, including numbers from primary to senior pupils. All acquired themselves with credit to themselves and their painstaking teacher. Limited space prevents publication of the program in its entirety. Among those taking part were Claretta V. Beddell, Hester Kellogg, Noretta Moss, Ruth Kellogg, Orede Maxwell, Geneva Osborne, Mildred Williams, Dorothy Storms, Annie New (five years old), Helen Williams, Theresa Liverpool, Mildred Lawson, Sybil Merrifield, Mrs. Belle Taylor, Mrs. A. J. Austin, Mrs. Mattie Johnson, Mrs. G. Andrews, Mrs. Eva Roulette, Mrs. Lena Storms, Mrs. Thelma Bentley, Mrs. I. C. Hickman and Mr. and Mrs. Gaines. A wide range of composers was represented. Among the most appreciated numbers may be mentioned Chimes of the Deep by Miss
Mildred Lawson; Windshield B. Minor; by Theresa Liverpool; Kemennoi Ostrow, (Rubenstein) by Mrs. Eva Roulette; Valse Arabesque, by Sybil Merrifield; a trio, Dance of the Winds, by Mildred Lawson, Helen Williams and the Teacher; vocal solo by Mrs. Thelma Bentley; a saxophone and clarinet duet, by Mr. and Mrs. Gaines; and a quintet, ten hands Hussernett, Spindolo, by Theresa Liverpool, Helen Williams, Mrs. Eva Roulette, Sybil Merrifield and the teacher.
A pleasing feature of the recital was the presentation in a graceful of small gold lyre to Mrs. Stewart from her pupils as a token of their appreciation.

To Mayor Dahiman and the City Commissioners:
Gentlemen :—We believe that you are anxious to make
Omaha a well-planned and symmetrical city, At present
this is not so, Beautiful well-lighted sections have been de-
veloped in outlying districts while other sections lying with-
in a mile of the City Hall are an eye sore and crying diserace
to a city like Omaha of cosmopolitan pretentions. The Mon-
itor does not attempt to fix the blame for this, we simply
call attention to a well-known condition which demands im-
provement. These unimproved sections are in the locality
occupied largely by those who are known as the laboring
classes. While we want all of these sections improved, we
are at present deeply interested in improvement in that sec-
tion, business and residential, centering on North Twenty-
fourth street between Cuming and Lake streets. This ter-
ritory needs and deserves many public improvements. The
first and most urgent demand is for more lights on North
Twenty-fourth street. Certain portions of this thorough-
fare are dark. Take for example the blocks from Blondo to
Grant streets. “Dark as a robbers’ roost,” some one has
well said. Start needed improvements in the territory
bounded by Cuming and Lake, Twentieth and Thirtieth
streets by decently lighting the chief business street of this
section. North 24th street, Light North Twenty-fourth
street! Let the citizens of this section of the city get busy
in making their wishes known to the commissioners.
‘Let those who approve of The Monitor’s stand on this
question express themselves. Our columns are open for let-
ters. f
