Whites Urged to Read Race Publications PHOENIX Full Associated Negro Press Service. We get the news first. VOLUME II. NO. 31 Whit RACE ANIMOSITIES RETARD PROGRESS AND GET NOWHERE (By Associated Negro Press). Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 1—In view of the action of certain communities to try to solve the race problem and bring about adjustment through methods of strife, animosity and hatred, the observation of the Raleigh News OLserver is very pertinent and worthy of consideration. In a leading editorial this paper which is one of the most influential in the south, says: "The disclosures from various sections of the country would indicate that outside influences are trying to stir up strife between the races and also of such other sections as have a considerable Negro population. It is not the Negroes who are doing this, but that disturbing element that appears to be in evidence in almost every field of social relation that is open to the work of the proselyter. "It is to the credit of the vast majority of the Negroes of the whole south as well as of the north, that they are realizing the situation, and trying to hold their lines against any such doctrines as are preached by the disturbers. But enough seem to be influenced to permit disturbances here and there, and each clash awakens a bitterness that at this time is unfortunate. "Intelligent Negroes and intelligent whites understood that race animosities positively get nowhere. Neither race profits by strife. The only way difficulties can be disposed of is by conference with each other, and by peaceful and patient methods on the part of each. The thoughtful man sees that the relation of the races has been growing steadily more tolerant of the differences that separate the two, and that the white man, with his greater wealth and ability to help has been helping the Negro to make steady advances in all directions. The thoughtful Negro sees this as readily as the thoughtful white man does. Both see that impatience, allowed to break out in strife, defeats all that is hoped for by either white or black. The movement started in Raleigh last week among the whites and the Negroes is one that gives promise of the greatest good to both races, and it can be studied and supported to the everlasting benefit of all. White man and Negro together must work out the situation, and together, and with both working with regard for the other's welfare. But to try and work it out in war will be in a manner wholly barren of any desired results, and so disastrous that it is not to be thought of for a minute. MESA By Alphonso Robinson The cotton carnival had Mesa last week and everyone enjoyed himself to the highest. We expected to see the king and queen of Belgium but were disappointed. The city put on its Sunday dress and everything had a fresh appearance. Rev. J. M. Robinson preached Sunday night at the A. M. E. church. His subject was: "A Strange Traveler." He delivered a wonderful sermon to the people and all enjoyed it. The boys of Mesa are trying to organize a Baptist Sunday School Cadet corps. We want them to push it to the front and make it the only live one in the state. The Baptist Sunday school now has a banner. The pastor said it is the second one in the state. Yuma-Somerton By Versie Rainwater Mr. C. E. Mallory is doing a wonderful business with his Hudson Super-Six. Mesdames Jessie Bell Snowden and E. R. Caton have returned from a pleasant visit with friends and relatives in Texas. Somerton now has a school for Colored children with Mrs. E. L. Wells of Phoenix, as teacher. Somerton now boasts a Masonic lodge under the Texas jurisdiction, also an order of the Eastern Star, under the same jurisdiction. I think poor Yuma has one church, C. M. E., also a Masonic lodge. Yuma is improving and the Colored popula- COLORED FAMILIES PAY DOUBLE RENT IN ORDER TO GET DESIRABLE HOMES Baltimore, Md., Nov. 1.—Colored families are occupying three houses in the 1100 block of Sharp street, where, for the last several weeks, there has been coflight between the white residents and Colored people who rented houses there. The block horetorefore has been occupied solely by white people, and on previous occasions when efforts were made by Negroes to move in the white residents interfered. Yesterday a Negro family moved in at 1114 Peach alley, and two Colored families now occupy houses in the 100 block, West West street. It is the first time Negroes have ever lived in this block of West street. Last night the house in Peach alley was bombarded by young white men with paving bricks. The front door was battered and the shutters damaged. When three policemen appeared on the scene the crowd ran away. The Colored families made no effort to combat the attack. This morning there were several brickbats lying around on the front pavement and steps and damage to the house was visible. The houses on Sharp street into which Negroes were moving their furniture were at 1115, 1119 and 1123. A group of white residents stood on the front pavement watching the furniture being moved in, and there were several expressions of "What'll we do to them!" Five houses in the Sharp street block now are vacant, the white families having moved out in the last week. The remaining white people say Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Shapiro, owners of the houses are determined to rent to colored families, and because there is no use trying trying to prevent occupation by the Negroes, they will also move. They said, in addition, that rents had been increased to $26 a month from $13 and they would not pay this much. The Colored families, they said, are willing to pay this rent. tion is increasing rapidly. The new arrivals in Yuma this week are Mr. and Mrs. Greenway, their father and two children. They came from Pueblo, Colo. The famous Garden family, Mr. Guy Morris and his wife, will soon be comfortably settled on his father's ranch. Mr. and Mrs. Easley of Santa Monica, Calif., are recent arrivals in the city. Miss Mamie Johnson has her relatives with her as guests this week. Mr. and Mrs. Lindley of Imperial, Calif., and several other families whose names to me are unknown, arrived in the city this week. Mrs. Martha Chisom returned this week after spending several weeks in Searchlight, Nevada. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Baugh returned this week from Los Angeles, Calif. Mesdames Staten and Gordens are all smiles since their return. I won't say why. Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Johnson are making some improvements on their ranch home. Mr. and Mrs. Caton entertained Sunday with a lovely dinner in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Bayer. The other participants were Mr. and Mrs. E E. Rainwater, and Messrs. Potts and Fletcher. Mrs. Caton had her prize winning pie, banana, which won first prize at the Yuma county fair. Of course if Yuma county gave it to her, we surely must. Mr. A J. Tullis was a Yuma visitor last week. E. R. Caton won first prize at the Yuma county fair on poultry and several other prizes. Mr. Sam Johnson was a Yuma visitor Sunday. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 1.—The Negro vote registered this year shows an increase of 2800 over last year. Of the registered Republican vote, 10,666 are Negroes, and 11,899 white. These facts were brought to light by the compilation of the registered vote made by the Democrats, which showed the party registrations as follows: Republicans, 22,565; Democrats, 21,373; Independents, 6,232. ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY CONSIDER THIS MAN'S CASE AND DISCARD THAT OLD GROUCH (BY ASSOCIATED Negro Press). Buffalo, N. Y., Nov. 1.—Got "the blues?" Shame on you! Sergt Jack Mason is known to his comrades in the United States army as "The Human Sieve." Literally riddled with bullets and shell particles, he still manages to look life square in the eye and smile! If the stitches ever come out of Jack Mason, or the silver plates in his head and body get loose, he'll just naturally fall apart. But do you think the contemplation of such a disaster brothers him or chokes the laughter in his heart? Not on your dageurreotype! "Sergeant Jack" not only rings up a normal number of grins and chuckles every day, but he sings at his work—sings the folksongs of his race in a rich and pleasing baritone which helped to coax $8,500,000 out of the American pockets for Liberty and Victory bonds, and has helped him to persuade many an "almost persuaded" to enlist in the army, navy and marine corps. Mason received all of his wounds in the service of his country. He got all but ten of them in the single engagement of Belleau Wood, "the Gettysburg of Europe." The rest he achieved in the Philippines, Mexico and China, during his 15 years service in the regular army. He has most all of the decorations and acknowledgments of courage, efficiency and resourcefulness that the grateful nations could bestow. He wears the distinguished service cross of America; the Croix de Guerre and Medaille de Legion d'Honneur of France and a British badge for courage. He also wears a special medal issued by the United States treasury department for his work on behalf of the various war loans. Sergeant Jack has three silver plates in his head, three in his left shoulder, one in his right shoulder, and three others in his legs. He has long since lost count of the stitches taken in his body at one time or another. He is as full of holes as a ton of Swiss cheese—yet he lives. He will be a cripple all the rest of his life—yet he laughs. What are YOU complaining about? PRESGOTT A. R. Smith, editor of Phoenix Tribune, spent several days in Prescott on business. On Sunday he addressed the B. Y. P. U. at 6:30 p. m. At 8:30 he spoke at Zion church, taking as his subject "Unity." Mr. Smith is a good speaker and greatly encouraged his hearers. We are always glad to have such representative men to come into our midst. L. J. Harris was on the sick list last week. Mrs. Youngblood and two grandchildren are down sick with typhoid fever.

TRIBUNE PHOENIX, ARIZONA, NOVEMBER 1, 1919 PLAN TO ESTABLISH INDEPENDENT STATE FOR COLORED PEOPLE (By Associated Negro Press). Washington, D. C., Nov. 1.—Plans for establishment of a free and independent Negro state, partly within the boundaries of the United States, have been presented to the senate foreign relations committee and the house committee on foreign affairs by Dr. M. M. Madden, a Negro attorney of Oklahoma City, Okla., and a special subcommittee of the house committee is to be named to investigate Dr. Madden's plans. Delegates representing each of the 48 states are in the city in support of the project, having been appointed at the general conference of the Free Will Methodist church, Colored, in St. Louis, last August. The project as outlined by Dr. Madden provides for the acquisition by purchase or cession of a tract 500 miles square in Mexico bordering on the Rio Grande river and the Gulf of Mexico. It is stated that negotiations already have been instituted with the Carranza government for the acquisition of this tract, with extremely favorable prospects. Provided the negotiations with the Mexican government are successful, Dr. Madden stated that the delegation, of which he is the head, has received assurances from the state of Texas that a similar tract will be ceded by Texas contiguous to the Mexican tract. This, Dr. Madden stated, assures the acquisition of a tract 1000 miles square, intersected by the Rio Grande and bordering on bthe gulf, to be erected into an independent state, in which Negroes would own the land, make the laws and in all respects be a free and independent nation. The proposed new state, according to Dr. Madden's outline of the project, would bear the same relation to the United States as Canada bears to England. Mr. and Mrs. John Brown returned to Ray last Sunday. They will remain about two weeks, after which they will proceed to their home in Phoenix. They are staying at the residence of Mr. James Coleman. Abe Bueford and son, Curtis, went hunting last week and bagged a number of ducks and quail. Mrs. Mose Davis was on the sick list last week. Lonnie Harris is now employed by the Hercules Copper company. Sunny Side is coming to life again after a quiet summer. Many social events of great importance are scheduled for the near future and with the midnight serenaders and Mose Davis, what more could be desired? Mrs. Sue Davis left last week for Hayden, where she will make her future home. Mr. D. D. Robinson, who was recently discharged from the 25th Inf. at Nogales, and who has been spending a few days in Ray, left this week for Gallup, N. M. He will eventually journey to Toledo, Ohio, where he will be married to the girl of his choice. They will locate in Flint, Michigan. LUNI DE UNUM YELLOW JOURNALS MAY BE BARRED FROM U. S. MAILS YELLOW JOURNALS MAY BE BARRED FROM U. S. MAILS Washington, D. C., Nov. 1.—Numerous complaints are being made to the post office department against various Negro publications that are alleged to be inciting race hatred, it was learned today. Officials of the department pointed out that in a measure the department's hands were tied in forbidding the mails to these publications, because of the lack of an adequate law covering the subject. Several bills bearing on the subject and looking to an amendment of the present law covering news matter of a revolutionary character are now before congress, but no final action has yet been taken on any of them, officials of the department said. It was pointed out that much of this matter could have been excluded from the mails while the war was in progress, as at that time it would have affected army discipline and morale, obstructed the draft and hindered the raising of loans to conduct the war. Much of the matter complained of cannot now be construed as tending to cause such results, officials say, although it is plainly designed to cause discontent among the Negro race. The whole matter hinges on just how far congress will go in formulating laws to regulate the preaching of the doctrine of social revolution, government officials say. It is the belief of officials that I. W. W. funds are being used in the Negro propaganda and close attention is being given this matter, but no one in authority seems to be in a position to say just what action can be taken at this time. WINSLOW Rev. J. A. Wright was in the city Monday and preached a wonderful sermon to the congregation. He was wondering why Winslow was idle, when all of the people of the large places where he has been were laboring for their race. Mrs. R. W. Strode left Wednesday for Los Angeles, where she is attending her sister, Mrs. C. W. Dunlap. She will return this week. Mrs. Wilhite has been ill for the past week. She is improving. Friday was Roosevelt day at the Winslow High school. Each class was entitled to a representative. Miss Willie Wilson represented the freshman class of thirty pupils. She read a paper on "The Life of Theodore Roosevelt." Editor's Note:—Unless the writer will attach his name to article, we cannot publish it. Anonymous letters usually are consigned to the watebasket; however, we retained this one; and if the name of the contributor is supplied, we will publish same. BISBEE (By Myr tie Threat) Mrs. Rayford and son left last week for Phoenix, where they will join Mr. Rayford. They will remain for an indefinite period. Mrs. J. A. Ford left last week for Fort Huachuca to join her husband. Miss Annie Lee Norris of San Antonio, Texas, who has been visiting her brother in this city the past two weeks, left this week for her home in the Texas city. Corporal J. Green of Naco was a visitor in Bisbee last week. WHAT SAY YOU, OLD NORTH? (Balti., Md., Manuf. Record.) The race problem, however, is a problem of the entire country. Each section must bear with the other in studying this problem, for it is a problem that rests heavily upon every section. For the good of the country it will be very much better for the Negro race to be more widely scattered, in order that the north and the west may through personal contact learn more in regard to the difficulties under which the south labars in solving so stupendous a problem. But the south wants the negro, and the north does not. RAY (By Archie Lewis) Mrs. J. A. Lewis has been indisposed the past week, but is now up and around. J. A. Lewis fell from a scaffold last week and sustained injuries that laid him up for several days. He returned to work this week. TO ENCOURAGE THE SPIRIT OF THRIFT AMONG BLACKS (By Associated Negro Press). Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 1.—A mass meeting of Negroes in the Pittsburgh district to inaugurate a campaign in thrift and education among the members of the race will be held tonight in St. James A. M. E. church with John Mitchell, Jr., of Richmond, Va., the only Negro member of the American Bankers' association, as the principal speaker. The meeting is the outgrowth of a movement of progressive Negroes of the East Liberty district. The war cost us thirty billions Put the world is going to get the full worth of it. PULLMAN SERVICE DENIED, ATTEMPTS TO CITE THE LAW. ROUGHLY HANDLED (By Associated Negro Press). Chicago, Ill., Nov. 1.—In the light of the "commission" report out of Chicago on the "pleasant relations" of races in Mississippi, this story from The Clarion, daily, is a wonder. It says: "An affair happening in Jackson, or rather close to Jackson, Sunday, that has attracted some little attention is the alleged taking of Drummond Leonard, a Yazoo City Negro, from the Y. & M. V. train by white men and the administering to him of a rather sound thrashing. "According to the story Leonard, well-to-do Yazoo City barber, had desired to send his two daughters to school at Atlanta. For the purpose he wanted sleeping car accommodations and attempted to reserve them at Yazoo City where the agent informed him he would, if a sleepr was desired, do well to engage a drawing room in order that the children would not come into contact with other passengers. "According to the story Leonard came to Jackson Sunday afternoon and asked for his sleeper tickets, which the agent refused to sell him. He is said to have then become indignant and to have cited the law to the effect the agent could not refuse to sell him. He later is said to have obtained a drawing room and placed his daughters on the A. & V. train. "Leonard took the Y. & M. V. train to Yazoo City and when the train reached Annie, a short distance from Jackson, he is said to have been taken off by some white men of this city, carried into the woods, and thrashed; after the whipping he was told to run and it is said made good time obeying orders. "A conversation with a gentleman at Yazoo City last night, revealed that Leonard returned to his home yesterday morning, that his shop had been closed all day, and the impression prevailed he had left the city for good." GLOBE MIAMI By. Mrs. Wm. Young A splendid program was rendered Sunday night at the A. M. E. church. A large crowd from Miami was present as well as the usual congregation which attends this church. St. John's Baptist church is all ready to build just as soon as the deeds are delivered. Mr. Stewart is a new arrival in the city. Sunday was covenant meeting day at the Baptist church. Everybody spoke anand the meeting proved quite interesting. The Bitte lesson of the Missionary meeting was led by Mrs. Wm. Young. All enjoyed the meeting and it was a very successful one. ROOSEVELT, OLD GLORY, AND THE BIBLE IN EVERY NEGRO HOME (By Associated Negro Press). New York, Nov. 1.—The picture of Col. Theodore Roosevelt shares with the Bible and the American flag the love and reverence of virtually every Negro home in the United States, according to Charles B. Anderson, former collector of internal revenue, who is acting chairman of the committee for Negro participation in the campaign in Manhattan of the Roosevelt Memorial association for funds for memorials in honor of the former president. "I consider it a privilege to contribute to a memorial to Col. Roosevelt," says Mr. Anderson in a letter to the association commending the purpose of the campaign. "I am sure that every member of may race will so consider it." STREAK OF HARD LUCK (By Associated Negro Press). Flint, Mich., Nov. 1—Some people always run into hard luck. Nine prisoners held for various offenses escaped jail here when they knocked down the turnkey. The ninth of the prisoners was a Negro, who ran into the arms of the police within two blocks of the jail. All of the others escaped. Largest Circulation of any Race Journal in the Southwest. 5 CENTS A COPY: $2.50 a YEAR RACE JOURNALS IF READ BY WHITES CAN PRODUCE GOOD RESULT Chicago, Ill., Nov. 1.—Have a heart, good people. The house is divided against itself again. It is written, "That a house divided against itself cannot stand." While Congressman Burns is of the opinion that many race newspapers are doing harm, Dr. Robert T. Kerlin, professor of English of the Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Va., makes the exclusive statement to the Associated Negro Press concerning newspapers. Startling in its frankness and complimentary to the last degree, Dr. Kerlin says: "I am reading Negro newspapers—reading them by the dozen, reading them by the score, from all parts of the country, from half the states in the Union, papers of every kind, secular, religious, fraternal, institutional. Let me tell you some of my impressions—the impressions of a white man. "First of all, I am profoundly impressed by the unanimity of these papers in their expression of the wrongs, the discriminations, and injustices practiced against the Colored people by their white neighbors and fellow citizens. Never, I think, did so many millions of people constituting a racial unit exhibit such a solid front, such unanimity of feeling and purpose. Their reaction to lynchings and the riots of which they have been the victims—to the shame of white America—has been that of one outraged and tortured soul, heroic in forebearance and in suffering. "Then I am impressed by the force and resoluteness of the Colored people's contention—also put forth with absolute unanimity—for justice, for opportunity, for constitutional rights, and for all that as human beings and patriotic Americans and loyal citizens, they are entitled to. "Such are my impression, not to proceed further in stating them, that I wish the white people of America generally might go to reading your papers, and do so with a serious mind to get your point of view, to learn how you think and feel on the subjects that so vitally concern us, to know what measures you have to propose to bring about better racial relations and an improvement of conditions with prevention of mob violence and lawlessness. Out of such reading would certainly spring a better understanding, atoning sympathy, saner and surer co-operation. The question of questions for us as a nation today is racial adjustment. The present condition of distrust and hostile feeling, ill disguised if not open and violent, is intolerable to all self respecting and human hearted people. It is utterly opposed to Americanism and to Christianity. I, for one, take my stand for justice, for humanity, and for a square deal. Simply because it is right and following the promptings of my own heart. "Another thing I wanted to say about your papers is that they display no little editorial ability, and reflect credit upon the race. Their editorials are often worthy of the ablest white papers—cogent in reasoning, temperate though resolute in tone, uncompromising yet dignified in their demands, throughout showing intellectual strength and moral conviction. "A general reading of the best Colored weeklies could not but greatly benefit the white people and produce good results for all America." CRAZED HUSBAND RUNS AMUCK, SLAYS WIFE AND WOUNDS HIS DAUGHTER (By Associated Negro Press). New York, N. Y., Nov. 1—Mrs. Minnie Sasser, 38, of 238 West 144th street, was killed, her daughter, Mrs. Lillian Shelby, 20, of the same address was wounded, and Marshall Payne, 44, also living in the same building, is expected to die as the result of a quarrel this morning between Mrs. Sasser and her husband. The police say that Sasser, after quarrelling with his wife, picked up a knife 16 inches long and almost decapitated her; that Mrs. Sasser's daughter was struck in the cheek, and that Payne rushed from his room, only to receive a deep gash in his chest. Mrs. Sasser ran after her husband down three flights of stairs when she died.

Every newspaper editor of our group in the country knows that the Associated Press, the leading news distributing service of the country, has carried on a policy of discrimination in favor of the whites and against the blacks, and is doing it daily now. The Associated Negro Press is in receipt of correspondence from editors in various sections of the country decrying the way in which the Associated Press writes its stories of happenings where Colored people are affected. It is well known that the facts concerning the 1919 riots in various sections have been peculiarly dealt with. Propaganda against us?

MOND RING MACH; ARRESTED THE WAY OF A The Pope, the highest official of the Roman Catholic church, has recently stated in a public interview that there "can be no economic and social progress in the world without charity and justice." That is a fact so patent that it should require absolutely no argument. But the trouble of the whole world today is the utter inadequacy in practice of Charity and Justice. Everywhere you look, in every country, whether it be the troubles of the Negro, the Irish, the Jew, or what not; whether it be the laboring man or the capitalist, at the foundation of all is the sickening of Charity and Justice. Everybody is trying to "put something over" on the other fellow; daggers and guns, and bricks and ropes are preferable to reason and common sense. The devil and all his imps must be mighty happy as they view with unabated glee the turmoil and the strife. The Old World is losing ground until it gets itself together and starts to march in unison along the pathway of Charity and Justice. Without them there can be no peace. Without Charity and Justice, real and absolute, civilization is a terrible failure, and Christianity a mockery and a sham; the principles upon which progress is made are a mere scheme of avarice and lust, and the glorious memories of wonderful deeds that have hitherto stirred our souls to action, are mere false alarms in the battle of life. But we pin our faith to the platforms of eternal truth as outlined by the Pope. He is RIGHT; he knows he is right, we all know he is right—even the veriest devil knows he is right, whether he admits it or not. It is simply a question of how long the peoples of the world are going to continue to be contented to skim along, and sniffle, and grumble, and growl, and fight along, in a manner that will keep the goal of true progress always in the dim distance. Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 1—Missing, a diamond ring belonging to Miss Mary B. Johnson, was revealed yesterday, the police say, by an Xray photograph in the stomach of G. W. Wesley, age 30, a Colored doctor, who served as lieutenant in the war. Wesley was arrested. Miss Johnson, who is employed in the office of the Pittsburg American, reported to the police that her engagement ring, valued at $250, which had been left on her typewriter desk, had been stolen. She told the police Wesley had been in the office a short time before. Special Policemen Anthony Forester and D. S. Andrist were assigned to investigate the case and they arrested Wesley. The doctor was taken to the Passavant hospital where an Xray picture was taken of his stomach by Dr. George W. Grier. The picture was developed yesterday and Dr. Grler reported it showed a ring in Wesley's stomach. The police were notified and Miss Johnson made an information against the accused man, charging him with larceny. --- PAGE TWO Date 22, 1918, at the Postoffice at Phoenix Act of March 3, 1879 The efferson Street.

THE WAY OF A POLITICIAN Lancaster, Pa., Nov. 1.—The Colored population of Lancaster is highly incensed at the action of the county commissioners in refusing them permission to hold the Negro Civic congress in the court house. They enjoyed this privilege before but this year when they made the request they received a curt "No." The reason for this action according to several of the leaders of the Colored population of the city is the comeback of the Republican organization for having dared to oppose Mayor Trout at the primaries. At that time they had not received fair treatment from the chief executive and announced publicly that they intended to oppose his nomination which they did at the polls and are now refused the right to hold an open convention on property which they help to maintain by they payment of taxes. Will you go to Europe by boat or by blimp? The French seem willing to pload guilty to the charge of returning the kindnesses of the American Negro soldiers. THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING (By Associated Negro Press). Washington, D. C., Nov. 1.—Resolutions asking for a proportionate representation of Colored women on the police force in the new bill put up for consideration by Maj. Pullman was adopted at the meeting of the Howard Park Citizens' association Monday night, at the Church of Our Redeemer. Dr. D. E. Wiseman, president of the organization, presided. Several new members joined the association, and reports of work done by the committees during the summer were discussed. BIRMINGHAM PLANS TO HELP HER COLORED CHILDREN (By Associated Negro Press). Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 1. "Birmingham is the only city in the state that is undertaking to do anything adequate for its Negro children along lines of industrial training. Its Negro high school is doing one of the most interesting pieces of educational work in the state," is a statement taken from the report of the committee that made a survey of public education in the state of Alabama, headed by Dr. Wallace G. Buttrick of the general education board and Dr. Philandes P. Claxton, United States commissioner of education. The commission further reports that "every particle of the equipment is utilized," by the boys and girls of the Negro Industrial High school and that "there is work in carpentry, painting, bricklaying, shoemaking, gardening, tailoring, dyeing, suit pressing, shoe making and many other lines of practical value," and "very strongly recommends industrial work o fthis kind for Colored high schools and to some extent Colored elementary schools all over the state." To further this industrial work in this Negro high school a large number of the graduates of the school met during last week and reorganized the alumni association, which pledged to give the school an experimental laboratory fully equipped to be used by classes in agriculture, domestic science, physics and chemistry, costing not less than $500. Also commencing next Monday night school will be instituted, with reading, circle department established for teachers who wish to extend their certificates under the new educational laws. RACE RIOT AVERTED (By Associated Negro Press). Chester, Pa., Nov. 1.—Prompt action of the Chester city and Delaware county authorities in mobilizing a large force of deputy sheriffs and citizens' reserves following the killing of a white man and the wounding of four others by a crazed Negro Saturday night, probably saved Chester from another race riot, such as occurred in July, 1917. Mayor W. S. McDowell of Chester, asserted that fear of possible rioting was dispelled. The same opinion was expressed by Sheriff A. L. Granger, who, with Mayor McDowell, directed the patrolling of the streets of Chester. Following the shooting afray, saioons and poolrooms were ordered closed. As a precaution, it is probable that those places will remain closed tomorrow. The reserves, who were recruited principally, from the special police forces of the industrial plants of the section, were still on duty today. SAN DIEGO FISH & POULTRY MARKET Having Battery Trouble? Bear's Drug Store Saves you money and gives you Best Service The Bear Drug Store SEGGREGATION IN CHICAGO (By Associated Negro Press), Chicago, Ill., Nov. 1.—A group of white people styling themselves as the Grand Boulevard District Kenwood and Hyde Park Property association have set out to find the means by which they can eliminate all Colored people of the district, east of Michigan avenue and south of 35th street. In these districts there are at least 10,000 Colored people and it includes many of the most prominent people of Chicago. In a meeting held recently, their chairman declared publicly that it was their purpose to help the Colored people and not to hinder them, and that it would be no good for them to harangue over their "constitutional rights" and that a way would be found to keep the members of the race out of this district. The Colored people are not excited over the proposition except in their determination to concentrate their efforts and co-operate in the plans of community uplift. The plan proposed by the association has not met with popular favor and several of the daily newspapers, as well as prominent citizens have denounced the proposition as untimely and dangerous to the best interests of the community. HELPS COLORED SCHOOLS (By Associated Negro Press). Wilmington, Del., Nov. 1.—Supplementing an earlier gift of $2,000,000 to aid in the rebuilding of schools throughout the state, Pierre S. Du Pont has made an additional gift of $500,000 to be used for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of Colored schools. This fund has been turned over to the Delaware School Auxiliary association and will be made available in co-operation with and at the request of the various school districts.

C., Nov. 1.—Appoint of Prof. G. David Houston, head of the English department of Howard university, to direct business training in the Colored high schools of the District has been announced. Prof. Houston holds the degree of A. B. and M. A. from Harvard university and is regarded as one of the foremost Colored teachers of the country. He formerly taught at Tuskegee Institute and at Baltimore high schools. The position as head of business practice in local high schools was created in the last appropriation bill. The Colored high schools have had a business course for some time, but it has not been under an organized head thus far. It is expected that the business training will be broadened under the direction of Prof. Houston. (New York Evening Sun). (From the Manufacturers' Record).

In the latter event 39 entries have been made and many of the drivers are men who have made national reputations as speed demons of the road. Saturday of fair week has been designated as automobile day and the program will be under the direction of Attorney Geo. Purdy Bullard, superintendent in charge. The events will consist of a 100-mile free for all for a purse of $5000; a 25-mile three-state event limited to cars from Arizona, New Mexico and Texas for a purse of $1000, and a 10-mile novelty race for a purse of $500. Another sporting event that is attracting keen attention is an aero plane race between Los Angeles and Phoenix; four entries have been secured. The big special attraction for fair week will be the appearance here of Ormer Locklear, the world's most famous aerial daredevil; Lieut. Locklear's most hair raising stunt is to climb out on the plane of one machine and leap to the underhanging of a second machine as it dashes across his course in midair. "All preliminary arrangements to automobile day have been completed," said Mr. Bullard. "The fair commission has set aside a liberal allowance for purses and now that the 3-A sanction has been obtained there is every assurance at this time that many speed demons will be here to contest for supremacy on the fastest dirt track in America." Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 1.—H. P. Ewing, a Negro, who has a 1000-acre farm near here and is known locally as the potato king and originator of the back-to-the-farm for Negroes movement, has acquired control of 35,000 acres of northern Arkansas land. Entries for these events will close November 1. Cliff Durant, Mickey O'Hearn and many other drivers of national note have filed entries and many others are expected with the result that there may be anywhere from 15 to 25 entries in the big 100-mile free for all. He is getting together responsible men of his race and returned Negro soldiers whom he will settle on the land with the understanding that they will buy it as they develop it. The purse money in this event will will buy it --- --- 1920s WHEN IT COMES TO Boston Store THE DAYLIGHT DEPARTMENT STORE POTATO KING While the inspirations for the new Fall and Winter fashions come from Paris, full credit for their development is due to American designers.

RACE AGITATORS FORCED TO LEAVE A COMMUNITY (By Associated Negro Press). Anderson, S. C., Nov. 1.—The feeling that race trouble might develop here as the result of statements alleged to have been made by the Rev. Bacheler, pastor of one of the Negro churches in this city, diminished considerably when it became known that the Negro preacher had left the city. The situation had been tense. Some level headed members of his own race went to the Negro preached and advised him to leave. M. M. Gassaway, principal of the Reed Street Negro school, upon request, tendered his resignation, which was immediately accepted at a special meeting of the board of trustees of the city schools. He has been advised to leave town also. Bacheler is said to have come here about six months ago from Rochester, N. Y. Gassaway has been living here for about 20 years.
