LOAN TO LIBERIA SHOULD BE GRANTED WITHOUT DELAY, SAYS SECRETARY HUGHES LIFTING - T TOO $2.00 a Year 5c a Copy LOAN TO LIB SPRING CAMPAIGN FOR MEMBERSHIP OPENS VIGOROUSLY The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Making Active Canvas for Larger Numbers. SOUTHERN BRANCHES ALERT New Orleans Aims to Enroll 5,000 New Members Before Close of Campaign—Texas Cities Undertake to Revive Branches. New York, May 5.—"Lynch Law Must Go" is the slogan of the spring drive of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People which opened vigorously throughout the nation, Monday, April 24, and which is to culminate in an anti-lynching conference in Newark, N. J., June 18 to 23. Great interest is being manifested everywhere, but in no section is the interest deeper or activity greater than in certain portions of the South. The entire weight of the association's forces throughout the United States is to be applied in an organized pressure toward the enactment by the senate of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill H. R. 13, already passed by the House of Representatives. There is no doubt felt in the National office of the N.A.A.C.P. that President Harding will sign the measure if and when the Senate enacts it. In fact, the president's signature is looked upon as a foregone conclusion. The N.A.A.C.P. campaign on the Dyer bill has already been begun in two states, Michigan and New Jersey, where local elections are made to hinge on that issue. Colored voters and the press throughout the country are being asked to make it clear that the Republican party will be held responsible for non-performance of its duty and its pledge to pass some such legislation as the Dyer bill. Secretary Johnson's Statement In opening the N.A.A.C.P. spring drive, James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the association, said: "The Dyer bill was passed in the house of representatives because colored people in the United States worked together for that end. It will be passed in the senate for the same reason. "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People believes that the Dyer bill is an excellent object lesson in the value of working together. If we can accomplish so much in one direction, we can in others as well. Therefore we want active, enthusiastic members. If half a million Colored Americans join the N.A.A.C.P. each individual will be part of an immense power working through organized machinery which will make the Negro's just claims felt in the nation. For the Negro, as for all humanity, "In Union there is strength." Join the N.A.A.C.P." Southern Branches Active Southern branches are especially active in the N.A.A.C.P. drive this year, among them being the branches in Houston, El Paso, Corpus Christi, and Dallas, Texas. Houston has undertaken to reorganize the branches in Texas that became dormant at the time of the assault on John R. Shillady. New Orleans, La., branch is in the midst of a canvass for 5000 members and Shreveport has also vigorously entered the drive. Most of the branches in Florida and many Arkansas branches have made their preparations to start at the word "Go." No timidity is being shown by southern branches in the method of their campaign, Houston placing window cards in the homes of their members, inscribed with the words: "This Family 100 per cent. Members N.A.A.C.P." The branch in the national capitol, Washington, D. C., has set itself the largest quota, seeking to obtain 25,000 members, and Chicago and New York will follow with quotas of 10,000 each. Great interest is being shown among California branches, Los Angeles preparing itself to reach its quota of 5000 members. CALLED FROM ST. LOUIS BY DAUGHTER'S ILLNESS Mrs. Nannie Anderson, mother, and Mrs. Cordella Johnson, sister of Mrs. Anna Griffo of 846 South Twenty- fourth street, were recently called from their home in St. Louis, Mo., by Mrs. Griffo's illness. Mrs. Johnson returned to her home last week, but Mrs. Anderson is still the guest of her daughter, who is so much im- proved that she expects to resume her duties soon at Dresher Bros., where she has held a responsible pos- ition for several years. THE MONITOR PARISH SOCIAL PLEASANT AFFAIR A parish social for the parishioners and friends of the Church of St. Philip the Deacon, under the chairmanship of Mrs. R. T. Walker, was given at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Hicks, 2630 Maple street, Wednesday night. There was a large attendance. The amusements were music, dancing and games to suit the various tastes of all. Whist seemed to be the most attractive of the various games. In this the prizes for the ladies were won by the following: Mrs. E. R. West, first; Miss Anna Logan, second; Mrs. Larry N. Peoples, booby; and for the men, James G. Jewell, first; Larry N. Peoples, second and C. H. Hicks, booby. In the cake conundrum game Thelma Shipman and Jean Dorsey tied, each guessing the same number. As the prize was a cake, there was no difficulty in dividing it. Refreshments were served. The committee of women having the pleasant affair in charge were complimented upon its success. GREAT BRITAIN SEEKS OIL IN WEST AFRICA Dark Continent Believed to be Rich in Production of High Grade of Oil (Associated Negro Press) London, England, April 30—The Gold Coast Colony of West Africa has been invaded by British mining engineers in hope of finding oil. Louis P. Boyler, a mining engineer of London, has made a thorough investigation of the oil prospects in West Africa and believes that pools and possibly gushers of oil will be found in the eastern area. He says that a "well-known" oil group is already on the ground making a serious test of the land. Oil has been struck thirty-three feet under the ground. Mr. Bowler, according to the New York Times, says that "the development of oil in West Africa, although only one of the country's unscratched potentialities, will have a far-reaching effect in its industrial expansion. West Africa is the nearest colonial possession to England. It is a neglected asset which if taken seriusly our dwindling export trade and could become one of the greatest purchasing centers of British manufactured goods. MME. C. J. WALKER'S AGENTS ORGANIZE CLUB Thursday evening, April 27th, a number of agents met at the home of Mrs. Gertrude Vawter, 1716 No. 28th street, for th purpose of organizing a club. National representatives Mr. J. K. Johnson and Mrs. Lula Hall Alexander were present. Both representatives addressed the agents, telling of the many improvements that were being made by the company and gave new ideas of the latest methods of treating the scalp. Mr. Johnson acting as chairman, the following officers were elected: Mrs. Gertrude Vawter, president; Mrs. Cora L. Owens, vice-president; Mrs. A. P. Garrett, secretary; Mrs. Morris, assistant secretary; Mrs. C. C. Johnson, treasurer; Mrs. Burleson, chaplain. The national representatives donated $50 each to the club. A banquet in honor of the national guests was given at Zion Baptist church Friday evening, April 28th. Quite a number of Omaha's representative citizens were present. The club thanks the pastor and members of the church for the hospitality shown. Mrs. Gertrude Vawter, Pres. Mrs. A. P. Garett, Sec'y. DEATH OF MRS. MABEL BROWN Mrs. Mabel Brown of 2616 Parker street, wife of Mr. W. S. Brown, died at the home of her mother, Mrs. Daniel, in Des Moines, April 23d. Interment was at Graceland cemetery, Omaha, April 26th, by Ester Temple, S. M. T. Mrs. Brown was well known having been in Colorado for a year on account of her health. For several years past she has been a faithful member of Grove M. E. church its auxiliaries and several local clubs. Sufficient to say that all who knew her knew the quiet Christian life she lived. The end was a peaceful sleep. A song, "Nothing Between," which she had requested, was rendered by Mrs. Mae Stuart, assisted by the choir. The resolutions and floral offerings were beautiful. CHURCH OF ST. PHILIP THE DEACON The services on last Sunday were well attended. At the 11 o'clock sung Eucharist, Father Williams preached on "The Good Shepherd." The services next Sunday will be at the appointed hours: 7:30, 8:30, 10 and 11 a.m., and 8 p.m. A meeting of the men of the congregation is called for Monday night at the rectory.

SEIZURE OF HAITI IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL, SAYS BIG DELEGATION Washington, May 5.—Charges that the seizure by the United States of the Republic of Haiti is "in violation of our Constitution, our treaties, and of international law," and constitutes "usurpation of power" through "mere executive action unauthorized by Congress," were made to Secretary of State Hughes last Friday by a joint delegation of eminent lawyers and the representatives of several national associations, all of which urged the restoration of self-government to the Haitian people and the immediate withdrawal of our military forces. OKLAHOMA ORDERS KLAN TO DISBAND Oklahoma City, Okla., May 5.—A general order directed specifically against the Ku Klux Klan and declaring that there is no room in the Oklahoma National Guard for any officer or man who owes an allegiance to any power, secret organization or society that might become arrayed against the United States or the State of Oklahoma and its laws, has been issued here by Governor J.

MEET AT SPRINGS Delegates From Every Country to the Number of Twenty-five Hundred Freely Intermingle and Take Counsel Together 150 COLORED WOMEN THERE Every Courtesy Shown to All Delegates—No Segregation or Embarrassments to Colored Attendants—High Ground Taken. Mrs. J. Alice Stewart, who with Mrs. W. S. Metcalfe, were delegates from Omaha to the Y. W. C. A. convention at Hot Springs, Ark., returned Monday night, she having stopped enroute at Philander Smith College, in Little Rock, where she formerly taught, and was given a reception Saturday night by former students. Mrs. Stewart reports that the convention, which was attended by 2250 women from every country where the Y. W. C. A. is represented, and this includes almost the entire world, was Beautiful home of Sergt. and Mrs. Isaac Bailey 2816 Pratt Street homes owned by colored citizens the two-story pressed brick residence of of two other homes which speak for tributing toward the upbuilding of the a great inspiration. About 150 colored delegates were in attendance and they were treated with all courtesy. There was no segregation, either in the street cars or in the meetings. All met together and worked together as Christian women without any embarrassment. Features of the convention were a colored chorus and a white chorus, which rendered special programs, and then united in one program, the first event of its kind in that section. Among the strongest speeches made for race equality was one by Mrs. Luke Johnson of Atlanta, Ga. Colored and white speakers spoke from the same platform. Bishop Jones made a profound impression by his able and scholarly address. Representatives from China, Belgium, Great Britain and India, as well as from all sections of the United States, took the highest ground for the recognition and treatment of all people as children of a common Father.

The Spring Drive for Members was considered and all urged to take a hand in it. A committee of three, M. F. Singleton, Rev. John Albert Williams and John T. McDonald were appointed to personally interview Senator Hitchcock to enlist his support of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill now before the Senate. The next meeting will be held Sunday afternoon at Mt. Moriah Baptist church, Twenty-fourth and Ohio streets. NATIONAL CATHOLIC COUNCH The St. Benedict Council of Catholic men is very busy these days preparing to launch a campaign to enlist the social work of the city. Five committees are at work and in the next few days from all indications, the work will be well under way. The National Council of Catholic laymen is an outgrowth of the war, being the follow-up of the former War Council. ZION BAPTIST Services were good and well attended all day last Sunday. The pastor had recovered from his recent attack of la gripe sufficiently to be able to preach two splendid sermons. There were several additions to the church. The attendance of the Bible School and B. Y. P. U. is growing each Sunday. The B. Y. P. U. punctuality prizes were won by "Old Reliable" Section. A special prize will be given also this Sunday to the section with the largest number present on time. Let other sections take notice.

Strangers are asked to make this their home while in the city. ALLEN CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH 5233 South Twenty-fifth Street. G. J. Burckhardt, Pastor. Sunday was a great day at Allen because it was Women's Day. The women did everything but preach. The program was taken largely by the elderly women of the church and was most enjoyable. The rally will be continued by request. The Sunday School was well attended. At 11 the pastor preached on Women's Work, from the text, "She was full of good worris." The League is doing excellent work and steadily growing. BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH THOMA A. Targert, Pastor Rev. G. W. Kibble has just closed a very successful revival here with many additions to the church. There will be a large baptizing Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. All circles, organizations and committees will hold their usual meetings at the T. D. C. hall. Members of the congregation who are ill are Mother Kelly, Miss Geraldine Haux at the Swedish Mission hospital, and Mr. and Mrs. Arduna at Twenty-seventh and T streets. Mr. Richard Taylor was very unfortunate a few days ago. He bought a large selection of flowers and planted them in his yard on North Twenty-seventh street, but some undesirable person pulled them up the same night. But he was fortunate in trailing the guilty party to a house in the neighborhood. The Apex Dramatic Club will present their first drama, "The Fruit of His Folly,' Tuesday, May 16th, at Pigrim Baptist church. The Monitor is a live newspaper; that's clear from the ads we carry. GROWING THANK YOU Whole Number 355 ARY HUGHES LIBERIAN LOAN AN AFFAIR OF HONOR SAYS SECRETARY The United States Will Stultify Self By Repudiating Promise to Grant Financial Relief to its Ally WILSON COURTED REPUBLIC Palm Oil of West African Republic the Great Attraction for United States President During World War Washington, D. C., May 5.—Urgent extension of a $5,000,000 loan to Liberia, promised in 1918, as a "point of honor," Secretary Hughes told the Ways and Means Committee last Wednesday that there was no foundation for reports that American banking interests would benefit mostly from the transaction. Such reports had arisen at previous hearings of the committee on the legislation. Explaining that the loan is authorized in 1918, and not put through, Mr. Hughes said, as a moral obligation the good faith of the American Government was pledged to aid the Republic of Liberia, which had entered the war "at the instance of the United States." "I never heard that any one interested in payment of bonds was behind this proposal," said Secretary Hughes. "The truth is that bonds amounting to $1,500,000 will be retired under this loan plan. I understand that $58,000 is the amount, out of the $1,500,000 total, held in the United States. My personal information is that the figure is nearer $10,000. Many Held in Europe A considerable amount of the Liberian bonds to be retired in event the loan is made by the United States, the Secretary added, are held in Germany, Holland and Great Britain and are widely distributed among private investors. "Nobody has anything to do with advocating this credit for private advantage," said the Secretary. "We could not get a first lien and adequate protection unless the others holding bonds were paid." "Failure to make the loan," Mr. Hughes declared, "would be lamentable with respect to the position of the United States before the world and most lamentable for Liberia, which entered the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies. Four Presidents Agree Mr. Hughes said the question of helping Liberia was the only point on which President Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson and Harding were in agreement and added: "There must have been some basis for the credit when it was upheld by such extraordinary concurrence." Palm oil, a product needed in the manufacture of munitions, found its greatest source in Liberia, and President Wilson sought that republic as an ally so as to get the oil product, he said. Hughes' Own Opinion After assuming the office of secretary, Mr. Hughes said he reviewed the case and concluded that after the credit was established, "it was our duty to go ahead and make good our word," and he so informed President Harding. Asked if there was any precedent for the loan, the secretary replied that he did not know of any case like it; that it was unique. "It is my duty to present the essential facts to Congress," said Mr. Hughes, "and I cannot believe that in this proceeding Congress will fail to realize how deeply the good name of the United States is involved in a question of national interest and honor. I regard it as a point of honor that the loan be made." DEATH CALLS PASTOR OF MT. MORIAH BAPTIST CHURCH The Rev. H. R. McMillan Succumbs to a Protracted Illness at His Residence Thursday Morning. The Rev. H. R. McMillan, pastor of Mt. Moriah Baptist church, passed peacefully away Thursday morning at his residence, Twenty-fifth and Corby streets, after a protracted illness. Mr. McMillan came to Omaha a little over a year ago from Newport, Ark., to assume the pastorate of Mt. Moriah, made vacant by the resignation of Rev. M. H. Wilkinson to become state missionary, and despite the fact that his health was not robust after reaching the city, he did diligent and faithful work and was much beloved by his flock. He is survived by his widow and four grown sons. THE MONITOR Entered as Second-Class Mail Matter July 2, 1915, at the Postoffice at Omaha, Neb., under the Act of March 2, 1879. THE REV.

CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. Citizenship Rights Not to Be Abridged. 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

THE N. A. A. C. P. MEMBERSHII DRIVE THE National Association for the Advancement of Colored People deserves the support of every broad-minded, justice-loving American citizen. No American of color who is advised of the principles for which this organization stands, or the work which it has accomplished during the eleven years of its existence should hesitate for a single minute in becoming a member. Membership costs $1.00 a year. Half of this amount is kept by the local branch for the work it may have to do at home, and the other half goes to National headquarters for the work which the National organization has to do throughout the country. This organization has been in existence eleven years. In that time its membership has grown to 250,000, about one-tenth of whom are white people, many of them representing foremost places in the realms of business, education and the learned professions. There ought to be a membership of one million colored people alone. To mention only a few things the National Association has done: Aroused the conscience of the American people to the menace of lynching, resulting in the passage by the House of Representatives of the Dyer Bill, and its introduction in the Senate. In its work of publicity, collection of data, etc., in connection with this measure it has expended over $50,000. Exposed peonage in the South, which has led to federal investigation of this evil, and the punishment of several persons guilty of this crime. Secured better educational advantages for colored children in the South. Helped to secure justice for innocent Negroes accused of crime. These are only a few of the many excellent accomplishments of the organization. It aims through its publicity bureau to place facts concerning race rela- tionship before the American people, believing that the truth will set the nation free from many injustices of which our people are largely victims. Imagine what a society of this char- acter, ably and wisely directed as it, is, with a membership of one million could accomplish. The Spring Drive for Members is now on. Let no self- respecting member of our race hesite to join. Omaha three years ago had a membership of nearly 800. The branch was growing in power and influence. Unfortunately selfish interests were set to work which nearly succeeded in wrecking it. The membership dwindled to a low figure. Faithful officers and a comparatively few loyal followers have stood by the organization and done excellent work for which they are to be commended. The Monitor hopes that in the drive which is now on for new members Omaha citizens of both races will respond in large numbers. The N. A. A. C. P. Spring Drive is an earnest endeavor to unite hundreds of thousands of colored Americans to achieve a common end; namely, freedom from the menace of lynching, justice in the courts of the land, equal educational advantages for all children, full enjoyment of the franchise, or in other words, equal rights for all American citizens. As a self-respecting, law-abiding, industrious and progressive American citizen of color, do you want these things for yourself and for your children? Then join the N. A. A. C. P. Your dollar and your influence are needed. NOT A LEGAL OFFENSE LAST WEEK the Monarch Gardens, a popular cabaret with people of both races who patronize such institutions, was closed by the Board of Public Welfare. The superintendent of the board, Wallace Wilson, in two or three interviews, published in two of the local dailies, stressed as the chief reason for closing this cabaret the fact that both races were permit- ted to use the same dance floor, whereas the permit was granted with the proviso and understanding that the privileges of the place should be restricted to colored folk, or to quote the language of the alleged interview, published by the Bee, "only blacks would be allowed on the dance floor." The violation of this arbitrary rule of the Board of Publir Welfare seemed to constitute the chief offense. This was undoubtedly the fact given most emphasis. The Monarch Gardens, like many cabarets, under either white or colored management, may have been a disorderly place and permitted violations of the unpopular law prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors, as many of them do and officials should know that they do. If this were the case, the cabaret should be closed for violation of the law and the point should be made clear that it was for being disorderly and for violation of the law. But the voluntary patronage of public places by both races does not, however, constitute a legal offense under the laws of Nebraska and when officials for political capital, and this is the joker in the deck, attempt to make it appear so, they make themselves ridiculous in the eyes of thoughtful people. SHOULD OPEN THEIR EYES WHEN political tricksters in this WHEN political tricksters in this community want to pose as paragons of virtue and conservators of public morals and would throw dust in the public eye, they always manage somehow to find some Negro or Negro place of business which they can conveniently use for their purpose. It is to be regretted that a certain class of our people permit themselves to be placed in positions where they can be so used by olly, designing and unscrupulous politicians who are more interested in votes than in the morals and good name of the city, and who will grant privileges and protection when so doing serves their purpose, and withdraw them when they can be made a political asset by bestowing them elsewhere. Some day our people will get their eyes open. WHAT OTHE REDITORS SAY NEGRO NEWSPAPERS "To the Negro papers of the country must be given the credit for bringing about a nation wide demand, for instance, for a federal law with enough well preserved teeth in it to put an end to the barbarous sin of lynching. Hence the Dyer anti-lynching bill, which recently was passed by the House and is now awaiting action by the Senate. And who can truthfully deny that during the great war the colored paper did its infinite best to bring that great conflagration to a close with democracy on top? And lest we forget! Did not the colored paper receive also and effectually utilize its opportunity to preach 100 per cent patriotism all during the critical period? Yes, and it did so on a par with the most staunchly American journals of the nation. "Race consciousness, the development of which everywhere among our people, is decidedly on the increase. A very happy sign, indeed, that natural desire to 'see what our papers have to say about it,' is becoming more and more general among colored people, who are gradually growing more appreciative of the effort that is being expended by those of the race to build up in its interest a strong press. "Big job, it is admittedly, but it is also one of those ultimate and sacred aims of the now much criticized Negro newspaper that must not and will not fail. "There is one thing of which we are certain, and that is that the colored press is slowly, but surely, becoming a powerful moulder of public opinion."—The Indianapolis Freeman.

Abraham Lincoln and his immediate successors seem to be dead and to be forgotten by the generation of leaders of this day. And now Negroes are awakened to the fact that parties are instruments to be used for the benefit of the country, primarily, and closely following, for the benefit of the people, who give adherence and support to the party of their choice. When the party fails to give recognition to any group or class of its citizens and becomes callous in the matter of the protection of the rights of those citizens to life, liberty and the possession of property, it is time for them to cast about for new alliances. And the time is now ripe for Negroes in every part of the United States to think in terms of practical politics and cast sentiment and tradition to the winds.—Baltimore Herald.

Political candidates who are talking about their "large personal following" should remember that even the corpse at the head of the funeral has that.—Harrisburg Telegraph. CONCERNING SOCIAL EQUALITY (Associated Negro Press) (From "When Black Meets White," by John Louis Hill.) By "social equality between the white and black races is generally meant a meeting of the two races upon the same social level, a gracious extension and cordial reception to and from each other of the amenities of social intercourse. This means visiting with and entertaining each other. Social equality of these races means for both colors to sit together around the same festal board. Against this idea the South has always rebelled and with most people in the North it has been but a theory, practiced by comparatively few. As stated in the previous chapter, this question has no legitimate place in the adjustment of racial disagreements because color has nothing to do with character. Only two things of right should determine social equality or inequality, viz. character and intellect. In nothing are there so many strata and gradations as in the make-up of the world's social life. No other word has a more varied significance than the word "society." Primarily, it means the entire human family in its associated and interrelated contact. In its narrowest and most despicable sense it refers to the "upper crust," the aristocracy of gold, the "400." There are as many gradations of society as there are levels upon which people meet in mutually pleasant intercourse. There is social inequality between a cultivated individual and an uncouth ignorantam. There is social inequality between a man of high moral character and a libertine; between a pure woman and a courtesan; between an honest man and a thief; a gentleman and a robber.

C. Calhoun, supervisor of the Five Civilized Tribes schools here. ‘These schools form the largest unit of Indian schools op- erated under one supervision in the country, he added. ‘The supervision of the schools of the five civilized tribes—Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek — and Seminole—has to deal with three phases of school activity which are ranked in importance as follows: ‘Tribal boarding schools, public day schools and private contract schools, Have Nine Boarding Schools, ‘There are nine tribal boarding schools and seven contract schools, while the public day school system includes 2,906 districts with an enroll: ‘ment of about 18,000 Indian chtldren. ‘The supervisor's office has Jurisdic tion over the Indian pupil only tn these day schools, not over the public school as such. ‘The tribal boarding schools are main- tained for each distinct tribe and the completed educational plants, Each 1s equipped with kitchen, dining-room, dormitory, laundry, hospital and facilt- tles for industrial and academic edu- cation.
