LIFTING LIFT NORRIS OF NEBRASKA SENATOR NOT VOTING ON DYER MEASURE Recommended by Close Vote of Eight to Six With Two Senators, One Republican and One Democrat, Listed as "Not Voting" AMENDMENT STRENGTHENS Proof of Failure by State to Protect Victims Required by an Added Provision Proposed by the Committee. Washington, D. C., July 14th—The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, providing for imposition of penalties by the Federal Government for mob action, was reported favorably, with amendments, by the Senate Judiciary Committee here Friday, June 30. The vote stood 8 to 6. Eight Republicans—Chairman Nelson, Minnesota; Dillingham, Vermont; Brandegee, Connecticut; Cummins, Iowa; Cold, Rhode Island; Sterling, South Dakota; Ernest, Kentucky; and Shortridge, California, voted in favor of the bill. One Republican, Senator Borah of Idaho, and five democrats, Culbertson, Texas; Iverman, North Carolina; Reed, Missouri; Shields, Pennsylvania; and Walsan, Moultana, were recorded in opposition. Senators Ashurst, Democrat, Arizona, and Norris, Republican, Nebraska, did not vote. Ends Bitter Flight The action of the Senate Judiciary Committee in placing the issue squarely up to the Senate, ended one of the bitterest fights in legislative history. The bill passed last January by the House, has been urged by colored citizens from every section of the United States, and it is the general concensus of opinion that the action of the committee was taken only after pressure had been brought to bear. Opponents of the bill have fought it from pillar to post, on the grounds that it was unconstitutional interference with State Rights. But the changes recorded in the Committee were said to be designed to meet the constitutional objections. Senators who voted in favor of the bill, said that its constitutionality should be left with the supreme court. Provides Federal Action The bill declares that if States fail, neglect or refuse to maintain protection of life they shall be deemed to have denied the Constitutional guarantee and the Federal authorities will have power to act by indictment of State officials or members of a mob and trial in the Federal Courts. The measure requires "reasonable" efforts by State officers to maintain order and protect prisoners, and their failure would subject them to imprisonment for five years and a fine of $5,000. Members of mobs in which a prisoner is put to death, would be subject to conviction for conspiracy with imprisonment for five years to life provided. Counties in which fatal mob disorders occur would be liable to the family of the victim under a forfeit of $10,000. Amendments adopted by the Senate Committee require that failure of the State officers to protect mob victims must be charged in the Federal indictment and proven to the satisfaction of the Federal trial court. 700 BORN IN ST. LOUIS OUT OF W OUT OF WEDLOCK St. Louis, Mo., July 14.—Over 700 colored children have been born out of wedlock here, according to Dr. Geo. Mangold, director of the State School of Social Economy. Many of the mothers are laudresses, he said. Unmarried mothers were found as young as thirteen, but the greatest years for danger to girlhood are between sixteen and nineteen. REFUSED ORCHESTRA SEATS IN THEATRE SUES FOR $500 Elizabeth, N. J., July 14—Louis Moore of Plainfield started suit in the District Court here against Michael Connhail and Patrick Shannon, proprietors of the theatre at Plainfield, for $500 damages, claiming he was "refused full and equal advantages under the Civil Rights law of New Jersey." Moore sets forth that on March 7 last he bought two tickets for the orchestra in the theatre, and when he went there he was told to go to a box in the balcony. LAW LEAGUE HITS LYNCHING Atlanta, Ga., July 14—Denunciation of lynching, laxity in law enforcement and of "maudlin sympathy" which, it was asserted, encourages the lawless, was voiced here at a conference of the League of Enforcement of Law Through Constituted Authority, a newly organized Georgia institution. THE MONITOR BARRED AT MEETING San Francisco, Cal., July 14—Three colored veterans of the World War, who journeyed from Texas to San Francisco to protest that they represented the Fairview chapter of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War, in annual convention here, were not given seats in the convention. According to the Texas order, held at Waco, Tex., the charter of the chapter had bee revoked. The order refusing to seat the men was issued from the headquarters of Judge Robert S. Marx, national commander of the disabled veterans. "It is not a question for the national officers to determine," was the statement. "It is a state matter, and has been ruled on by the Texas department." NIGERIAN NATIVES PETITION GOVERNOR FOR TRADE SCHOOL West Africans Desire Educational Institution Patterned After Famous Tuskegee School. WANT GIRLS TO BE EDUCATED Lagos, Nigeria, West Africa, July 13.—A Bill of Rights, petitioning Governor Sir Hugh Clifford for a compulsory educational system and a normal and industrial institute along the lines of Tuskegee Institute, was presented by natives here recently. Says the petition, "Education should be extended to the girls as well as the boys as is not now the case, and the courses extended so that natives may attend college here instead of having to go all the way to England for this purpose." Other subjects in the Bill of Rights deal with the request for trials by jury and qualified judges instead of by military officers, excessive timber royalties, the liquor question and the lessening of taxes on exports. The governor is also requested to force shipping lines, especially the Elder Dempster Company, to reduce their fares between England and West Africa, and to aid in covering the colony with a network of motor roads to supplement existing railroads. The fares of officials going to and from England are said to constitute a "colossal charge upon the colony". YOUTH. FEARING FOR TO PUT HIM IN JAIL Kinston, N. C., July 14.—Fearing for his life, Elijah Dunn, whose truck ran amuck here when his steering gear broke, resulting in serious injury to several persons and the death of one, asked to be kept in a safe place pending the investigation of authorities here. Although laborers, in the truck with Dunn, proclaimed that the youth showed rare bravery and fortitude during the mad dash of the truck, feeling among white persons here is high. COLORED ATTORNEY FILES FOR LEGISLATURE Charleston, W. Va., July 9-Clayton E. Kimbrough, well-known attorney of this city, has filed his certificate of candidacy for member of the West Virginia House of Delegates on the Republican ticket. Mr. Kimbrough is a practicing attorney of Charlestown for several years and a graduate of Howard University. Delegate Attorney T. G. Nutter will not be a candidate, it has been announced. NEGROES IN SOUTH GROW 90,000 ACRES OF CORN Washington, D. C., July 14.—More than 14,000 Negro farmers in North Carolina, Texas and Virginia who raised 90,000 acres of corn last year under the advice of county agents, employed co-operatively by the Department of Agriculture and state agriculture colleges, obtained average yields of 35 bushels an acre. The average for all farms in these states ranged from 17 to 25 bushels an acre, the department said today. In Virginia, nearly 5,000 of the Negro demonstrators planted pure seed and about 3,000 selected seed for their 1922 crop. All these demonstrations on plates of corn were harvested except 87 acres which were "hogged down". It is estimated that 70 percent of the Negro farmers in Virginia are following methods of growing corn taught by extension workers. RE-ELECTED TO DISTRICT BOARD OF EDUC BOARD OF EDUCATION Washington, D. C., July 14-J. Hayden Johnsonson was re-elected and sworn in last week as one of the three colored members of the District Board of Education. A NATIONAL WEEKLY NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF COLORED AMERICANS THE REV. JOHN ALBERT WILLIAMS, Editor 409 I.P.E.U. Nathan Bernstein for Congress MAJOR MOTON SAVES WOMAN FROM INJURY AND PERHAPS DEATH Prominent Educator at Risk of Own Life Delivers Dazed Woman from Path of Swiftly Moving Automobile. BRAVE ACT. STATES OFFICER Rescuer Declines to Give Name When Requested. "Just Say a Black Man Did it," Educator Tells Officer. New York, July 14—Threading the traffic during Fifth avenue's most crowded hour, Friday, woman was confused and stepped directly in the path of swiftly moving automobiles. Crowds on the sidewalks looked on with horror or turned away from what appeared to be an inevitable fatality, but one man dashed through the vehicles thronging the street, seized the woman by the arm and dragged her back to safety. Dazed by her sudden and unexpected delivery from death or serious injury she failed to thank her rescuer. A traffic policeman was more alert. He stopped the man after he had taken a dozen steps and asked his name. The stranger, who was colored, turned. "Are you going to arrest me?" he asked. "No," said the officer. "That was a brave act, and I want to report it." "Just say a black man did it," he said, and turned away. He was Dr. Robert Russa Moton, successor to Booker T. Washington, as head of the Tuskegee Institute, major in the American army during the war, and one of the foremost figures of his race in America. SUES U. S. FOR $100,000 Washington, D. C., July 14—Charging that the American marines in Haiti caused him moral, physical and financial damage and drove him and his family from the island in an open canoe, Rev. L. F. Evans of Wyoming, Pa.

C., July 14—Henry Grant, president of the National Association of Negro Musicians, has announced that the annual meeting of the association would be held in Columbus, O., on July 25th, 26th and 27th.

OMAHA, NEBRASKA, JULY 14, 1922 n Bernstein for Cor HOWARD PROFESSOR TAKES ADVANCED DEGREE AT CATHOLIC UNVERSITY Washington, July 14th—Professor George Morton Lightfoot, well known scholar, educator and editor, of the Howard University Faculty, has satisfied the requirements of the Catholic University of America for the Master's Degree in Classical Philology. In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree, he presented a forty-eight page thesis on "The Question of the Origin of Roman Satire", in which discussion he makes a survey of the lengthy and ingenious debate which has continued almost without cessation for over half a century. After a thorough investigation of the various claims of priority in producing satire, Professor Lightfoot establishes his conclusion that "the Romans were the first to produce and to develop the satire as a separate and distinct type of literary expression." Professor Lightfoot is a product of the Preparatory Department of Howard University. His College career was spent at Williams College. His successful scholarship at Williams won him a teachership in the Preparatory Department at Howard University and later he was given a teaching place in the college where he has been employed ever since as Professor of Latin Language and Literature. N. A. A. C. P. The Omaha branch of the National Association met last Sunday at Freestone Baptist church at the usual hour. After the regular routine of business had been disposed of discussion was had upon the records of the candidates seeking re-election in the coming primaries. It is apparent that the voters are no longer bound to vote for any man simply because he is a member of a certain party and they seem ready to support the man and not the party. Several spoke of the discriminatory boxing law enacted by the last legislature and the men who are responsible for the law, most of whom are up for re-election. The Dyer Antilynching bill was reported favorably by the committee and it is hoped that the U. S. Senate will soon pass the bill so that the greatest curse of the entire country will soon be blotted out. The Rev. Russell Taylor reported that the World theatre was discriminating against colored patrons and had with the assistance of the police ousted three last week. The matter was referred to a special grievance committee. More interest is being shown by the membership and quite a number of new members and renewals are coming in. The meeting next Sunday afternoon will be held at Zion Baptist church, Twenty-second and Grand streets. Come and bring someone with you. - BRAITHWATE'S NEW BOOK BRAITHWATE'S NEW BOOK Boston, July 7—William Stanley Braithwalte's "Authology of Magazine Verse for 1921" was recently published by Small, Maynard & Co. ASSOCIATION SPENT NEARLY $120,000 IN WORK LAST YEAR The Twelfth Annual Report of the N. A. A. C. P. Shows Large Expenditures Are Well Used in Its Effective Work. DYER BILL FIGHT TOOK CASH Over $60,000 Spent in Pushing This Federal Measure, Investigation of Lynchings, Exposing Kluxes and Peonage. New York, July 14th—The twelfth Annual Report of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People shows that the national organization alone spent quite $120,000 in its work last year. Of this amount $65,831 was spent in editing and publishing the Crisis, the official organ of the Association which has an average monthly circulation of 19,750. According to Dr. DuBois this is a loss of nearly 25,000 average monthly circulation in the past two years, due to the industrial depression and due also to the "spiritual reaction of the war and the demand for radical, striking and unusual programs and remedies such as the N. A. A. C. P. and the Crisis do not advocate." The publication earned a profit of nearly $4,000 last year. During the year, five paid secretaries addressed 616 public meetings in every section of the country. The number of paid-up members is not given, but the report declares that 52 new branches were formed during the year and memberships increased 67 per cent. The Association spent in addition $61,000 in its fight to secure the enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, investigation of the 64 cases of lynchings last year, exposure of the Ku Klux Klan, holding of the Pan African conferences, maintenance of publicity offices, and legal defense in a number of nationally prominent criminal cases where discrimination was involved. Time and money were also spent in the effort to secure pardon for the soldiers of the 24th Inantry imprisoned on charges growing out of the Houston riot, and to secure the removal of the U. S. marines from Haiti. (The Associated Negro Press.) Summit, Miss., July 7—Bob Collins was lynched near here last Monday night. He was charged with an attempt at rape on a white woman several months ago. $200,000 CHURCH STARTED YOUNG GIRL ATTEMPTS TO RESCUE COMPANION BOTH DROWN IN CREEK Memphis, Tenn., July 14.--While relatives and members of the party they were with tried in vain to aid them, two young girls, Gladdys Patterson, 17, and Bertha Steel, 15, were drowned in Nonconnah creek Thursday morning. The two girls were members of a "pincinicing party". The Steel girl could not swim, and while wading in the creek, she stepped into water over her head. Miss Patterson was near her at the time and went to her aid. The drowning girl locked her in an unbreakable embrace and both sank and perished, while other bathers were hastening to their rescue.

In the absence of Mrs. Jennie Edwards Mrs. Lillian Webster of Troy, Kans., was elected District Superintendent of the Sunday School. Mrs. Webster is an usual bright woman of our race, also Mrs. Ellen Whiteside of Atchison was elected president of the M. M. Society in the place of Mrs. J. G. Jewell who was not present. Mr. C. H.

Pierce, field agent of the States Relations Service, who supervises the Negro extension work in Virginia and seven other southern states, reported at the recent two-day Hampton Institute Farmers' Conference that there are at work among Negroes in Virginia 24 farm and 7 home-demonstration agents, who are in touch with 28,000 Negro farm families and who, with 28 county advisory boards, have organized 305 community clubs in which there are enrolled 7400 families. In 28 Virginia counties there are Negro farmers' conferences, whose officers are the officers of county advisory boards, which cooperate with the extension workers to help improve the economic and educational conditions of rural Negroes. Every year in Virginia there are held twenty-odd county fairs, which serve as educational exhibits for the work of Negroes. Conference Membership Conference Membership Charles W. Pugley, assistant secretary of agriculture, Dr. C. B. Smith, chief of extension work for the States Relations Service, William B. Mercer, agriculturist, extension work, and Miss Grace E.

No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. THE ASSOCIATION MUNDO PRES MEMBER OF FIRST IN SERVICE THE CITIZENS of Omaha, certainly not its thoughtful, law-abiding, property-owning colored citizens, have not forgotten the lynching and burning of a human being here three years ago, with the rioting and the burning of the Court House. Nor are they ignorant of the fact that that terrible affair in which, providentially, aside from the unfortunate black victim of the mob's fury, very few of our race met with personal violence, was carefully planned and executed for political purposes. It was to discredit the administration then in power and especially the police commissioner. The fight was against Mayor Smith and Dean Reinger, police commissioner. It was not aimed against the Negro, but the Negro was used as the goat and had to bear the brunt. Lurid and sensational reports of alleged attacks upon women, most of them deliberate lies, were published. This was but a part of the vicious national propaganda program of the Ku Klux Klan to discredit the Negro in the north and force the recent southern migrants back to the south to meet the serious shortage of labor in that section. Of this propaganda local politicians and bosses took advantage and the Omaha riot, with its aftermath of suspicion and feel-ing, was the result. It was not the fault of those maniacs had one in end in view and did not care what harm ensued to our people. That vicious element of Omaha's citizenship showed itself absolutely conscienceeless and unscrupulous. Now, some instigators of that mob and sympathizers with it, are anxious for our votes. We ought not, and will not, KNOWINGLY vote for any candidate upon whom rests the slightest suspicion of having any sympathy with or active connection with that riot; nor should we vote for any candidate, whose candidacy is being urged and supported by the element, which, for their own selfish purposes, planned and staged that riot. No candidate who is on the roll of the Kluxes, and there are some, should receive a single vote from our people. Of course, we may and will make some mistakes, but let none of us knowingly vote for any riot or mob sympathizers or any one who is on the roll of the Ku Klux Klan. Scrutinize a candidate's record, secure reliable information, so far as you can, about him, and then vote your sentiments as a free, intelligent self-respecting American citizen. THE SHERIFF IT has been demonstrated that the Sheriff is a vitally important officer. Four candidates are contending for the nomination on the republican ticket. Carefully consider each candidate before you vote. Swat the fly! Also Kluxie candidates for political offices. Both are enemies to public health and safety. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL should be a man of commanding legal ability, judicious, fearless and broad-minded. Those who know O. S. Spillman, republican candidate for this office, say that he is that kind of a man. The Monitor, therefore, commends him to the favorable consideration of our voters. THE COUNTY ATTORNEY THE OFFICE of the County attorney is one of the most important to be filled at this election. It requires a man who cannot be swerved from what he believes to be right by special interests. Whether one may like him personally or not, it is conceded even by his enemies that Charles E. Foster has such a high sense of his official duty, that he is well-fitted for this office. The Monitor shares this belief. AR; $1.25 6 MONTHS; 75c 3 MONTHS lapsed Upon Application.

No any law which shall abridge the citizens of the United States; nor person of life, liberty, or prop- law, nor deny to any person final protection of the laws. IT IS VERY ESSENTIAL that Nebraska be represented in Congress by a man of ability, strong character, broad vision and wide sympathy. So far as our people are concerned it will be an added advantage to have a man there who from his own experience can enter sympathetically into our desire for "a square deal". Nathan Bernstein completely fills the bill. He is a man of commanding intellectual ability and broad culture. He is a strong man physically and morally. Of the Jewish race, "the iron has entered into his soul" in his struggle for recognition, but it has not embittered him. This district will honor itself by sending Nathan Bernstein to Congress. We have known him well for thirty years. We urge our people to go to the primaries and vote for Nathan Bernstein for Congress. Your vote is needed to nominate him. See that he gets it. ALL OVER the country the touch stone for re-election to the national House of Representatives or the Senate upon the part of the colored people has been the candidate's attitude, if he be at present a Member of Congress, on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. The slogan of the N. A. A. C. P. with its powerful and far-reaching membership; of the ever alert and effective National Equal Rights League, and many other organizations including lodges and fraternities has been, "Stand by Those Who Vote Right on the Dyer Bill." The returns from several states, with a large colored vote, where primaries have been held, show that this is no idle request. It looks as though the impossible has at last come to pass on at least one issue, A UNANIMOUS AND UNITED STAND OF NEGROES FOR THE SAME THING. This EIGHTH wonder of the world has been accomplished in our stand for the Dyer Bill. Our actions suited to our words is winning respect. Now one of the men who VOTED RIGHT ON THE DYER BILL was ALBERT W. JEFFERIS OF NEBRASKA. He is a candidate for the United States Senate. In keeping with their brethren in Pennsylvania, Indiana, Michigan and other states, the Colored people of Nebraska are in duty bound to vote solidly for Jefferis for United States Senator. Jefferis, with Andrews and McLoughlin, voted right on the Dyer Bill. Their constituents will vote right for them. McMULLEN FOR GOVERNOR IT is hardly necessary for us to add anything to what we have said in these columns in the advocacy of Adam McMullen for governor. We are confident that he will receive the practically unanimous vote of our people at the primaries. Vote for Adam McMullen for governor. JOE MARROW FOR REGISTER THE MONITOR commends Joe Marrow, candidate for Register of Deeds, to our voters. We have reason to believe that our people will not regret voting for Joe Marrow. WITH the talk of separate schools for colored children in Omaha which is in the air and in the minds of some people, it is very important that the State and County Superintendents of Education should be persons unbitted by this bug and untainted by this heresy. For this reason The Monitor commends to our voters Charles W. Taylor for State Superintendent and Henry M. Eaton for County Superintendent. These men are out of sympathy with any movement of this kind and are also progressive educators. Miss Martha L. Powell, former principal of Long school, who is one of Mr. Taylor's opponents, is avowedly in favor of separate schools for colored children. "Vote Once for Bunce" —Adv. --- DON'T OVERLOOK FRANK DEWEY Republican Candidate for COUNTY CLERK ```markdown ``` Don't forget that Mr. Dewey not only advocated a reduction in the taxes for this year, but succeeded in securing a Twenty Per Cent reduction, which means a great deal to each Home Owner at this time, and they should each weigh this matter thoroughly, as this tax reduction question has been talked of continuously, but none has succeeded in bringing about this reduction heretofore. Mr. Dewey has conducted the business in the County Clerk's office in an efficient, straightforward, impartial manner during his term in office. It is the duty of every Home Owner to support and vote for FRANK DEWEY on JULY 18th. GREENLEAF FOR TREASURER SAM K. GREENLEAF, who is a candidate for County Treasurer has had fifteen years' experience in the County Treasurer's office, eleven of which he has served efficiently as chief clerk. The Monitor believes that Mr. Greenleaf is entitled to promotion. We urge his election. FRANK DEWEY FOR COUNTY CLERK FRANK DEWEY worked himself up from every clerkship to chief deputy in the County Clerk's office. Then he was elected County Clerk and has filled the office with entire satisfaction. His office for years has had a colored clerk. A solid vote from our people is a foregone conclusion. EYES TESTED.

We prefer that writers sign their names, but in all cases letters signed with a nom de plume or as "Reader." "Substitute" letters are accompanied by the name and address of the author for the editor's information. W. F. Wappich for Judge of the Municipal Court. As an old resident of Omaha and its many readers I take great pleasure in publically expressing my opinion as to the qualification of W. F. Wappich, now a candidate for municipal judge at the coming primary. I have known Mr. Wappich intimately and well for the past thirty years, and to know him is to love him, for he is broad of vision, free from narrowness and bigotry, possessing a heart and hand that goes out in aid and in sympathy to the poor and oppressed, the widow and the orphan, regardless of race, creed or color. As police judge during his term he has and is discharging the duties of the office with as great, if not the greatest degree of satisfaction of any man that ever occupied the office, and in the event of his election it is to be sincerely hoped that he will be assigned to the police judgeship again. There are two to be nominated at the primary, which is non-partizan, and in this article I wish it understood that it is not intended to reflect in any manner upon any of the many other candidates for the office.
