CASE ATTRACT
(By Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Mar. 24—Dr. Leroy N. Bundy, who was convicted of murder because of the East St. Louis riots, has been granted bail and will be released from the Illinois state penitentiary. Writ of supersedes was granted by Judge Orrin N. Carter of the Supreme Court, who passed on the case at the request of Judge Duncan, who had jurisdiction, but who asked Judge Carter to hear the case owing to the fact that the majority of the sureties lived in Chicago. Judge Carter decided that there was serious and prejudicial error in the record of the crime for which Dr. Bundy was convicted, and decided that he be granted bail to the sum of $25,000. The entire Supreme Court of the State of Illinois will hear the case in April and pass on it in June.

ATTORNEY W. H. LEWIS NOMINEE OF THE RACE FOR PROMINENT PLACE
(By Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Mar. 24.—Hon. William H. Lewis, an assistant attorney general during the Taft administration, is to be the nominee of Race men for a place on the Railroad Labor Board soon to be organized by the government. W. L. Houston, attorney for the Railroad Men's Benevolent and Industrial Association, appeared here before the commission empowered in the new railroad law, arranging the wages and working conditions of the railroad members, and presented a petition that the rules be modified to permit their organization to nominate a man on the wage and labor board to represent our group.
President Robert L. Mays of the Railroad Men's Benevolent and Industrial Association, our largest organization of railroad men, declares that the many inequalities in the conditions of employment, particularly in the classes of transportation and mechanical employees, and the hard position of colored locomotive firemen, demands that the race men should have personal representation on the board of such great importance. This is particularly true owing to the fact that the white labor groups which will be represented by men of their selection have secured by men of the old railroad administration, are seeking to secure from the private management or the carrier corporations contracts of such a nature that the men and women of our group would be prevented from securing new employment in the skilled crafts of railway service and would be relegated to positions of common laborers. Furthermore, the many cases holding over from the old railway administration involving financial interests of our people extending into many hundreds of thousands of dollars, demand that we make every effort to secure the appointment of a race representative on this all-important board. The R. R. M. B. I. A. is fighting to put Attorney W. H. Lewis of Boston on the board of representatives of our group
GEN. LEONARD WOOD GAVE INTERVIEW TO COLORED EDITOR
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Omaha, Neb., March 24—During a very busy visit here, General Leonard Wood, candidate for president, gave an interview to Rev. John Albest Williams, editor of the Omaha Monitor, one of the most substantial Race newspapers in the country. General Wood expressed his gratification that the people of our group comprehend his attitude with reference to dealing in a determined and constructive way with the problem of Americanism. "Leonard Wood is not given to boasting," said Rev. Williams, "but his record demonstrates that he is a man of his word."

of Dr. Bundy, who was convicted because of the St. Louis riots, of murder in the first degree and sentenced to the penitentiary at Chester, Ill., for the rest of his natural life. Dr. Bundy was convicted March, 1919, and has been in the penitentiary for about a year.
The great legal victory which results in Dr. Bundy's release is the result of the brilliant, unceasing battle waged by his counsel, Houston & Calloway, of Kansas City. These two able barristers have emerged successfully and have won a great legal battle for the Race. This case has had practically the entire time of Mr. W. C. Houston since the trial of Dr. Bundy began.
Mrs. Bundy and a group of friends left for Chester to welcome Dr. Bundy when he emerges from prison.
SOUTHERN EDUCATORS TO MEET AND DISCUSS GREAT RACE PROBLEMS
(By Associated Negro Press)
Birmingham, Ala., Mar. 24.-The "Inter-racial Friendliness Program" to be executed at the Alabama School Teachers' Association and to be participated in by some of the sanest and wisest of both races in this and other states, and the educational, industrial and vocational exhibit planned, are to be distinguishing features of the annual session of the colored teachers' meeting to meet in Birmingham, March 31 to April 3.
The program projected is to deal with the most practical phases of education. The divisional meetings are not only to discuss the features that are feasible, but demonstrations for handiwork, domestic science and recreation are to be made under direction of some of the state's most talented in that particular phase of education.
The exhibit planned is to represent the best efforts in Negro education in this state. Principal R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute, expressed endorsement of about 50 per cent of the county school superintendents in the state as well as the support of the leading Negro educators.
CHALLENGE OF THE HOUR
(No Associated Name Phrase)
(By Associated Negro Press)
New Bedford, Mass., Mar. 24.—The celebration of the eighteenth anniversary of the Bethel A. M. E. church, Sunday, March 7, culminated in a mortgage-burning ceremony on Friday night. At the services on Sunday, Rev. F. M. Sydes spoke on "The Challenge of the Hour." He pleaded for a new place for the Negro in American life and said that the members of his race should not ask for charity from their white neighbors but should so organize that they will create a place of their own in American life and affairs.

COLORED VOTERS OF CHICAGO STRONG FOR GEN. LEONARD WOOD
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, March 24.—"Wood for President" is a slogan that is growing fast in popularity among the Colored voters in this city and state. Many Colored men are declaring for the general and there are indications which point to a general desertion of the Lowdens at the first favorable moment. No one seems to be able to assign a reason for the apathy of Illinois Colored men toward the Lowden candidacy. It is simply in the air. In the words of a prominent Colored business man, who does not care to have his name mentioned because of his business relations. "We just like General Wood's stand on the question of manhood rights. He declares himself for the man who is an American in times of peace and in times of war. That's good enough for me. I don't ask a man to stand for my obtaining my rights because I am a black man, but because I am an American. Yes, I am for Wood for President and I am praying that he gets the nomination. I want to have the joy of voting for him."
DISPLAY OF CASH SAVES CHICAGO BANK FROM DESTRUCTION
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, March 24—The "flash" of $450,000 bank roll stopped the recent run on the Lincoln State bank of this city. A rumor that the bank officials refused a reputable Colored business man a mortgage loan on solid real estate collateral is said to be the cause for the "run." Later a sinister rumor was started to the effect that the bank was really insolvent and that was the reason why the officials refused to loan the aforesaid business man money on the securities he offered the bank. The "run" lasted several days but was finally checked by the display of the big "bank roll."
PROGRESS AND UNIONS
Labor unionism has been one of the Race's "red flags." We have ever been acutely alive to the unfairness of organized labor toward us and ever alert to antagonize and retaliate in the greater number of instances where labor has clashed with the forces of capital.
It is true that organized labor is in large measure clearly responsible for this unhappy condition. Organized labor has been unfair to the Race. There are signs, however, which point to a growing disposition to recognize that the unions have been the greater sufferers through their insistence to exclude our Race from membership and the councils of their organizations.
There has been a gradual letting down of the bars. The results have been beneficial to all concerned. Contact has brought a broader understanding to both elements and each begins to see the industrial and social value of the other. More than that, each is beginning to realize how indispensable they are one to the other. There need be no technical discussion of the economic aspects of the questions. The larger matters of social and economic relations are more often decided by heart impulses. This is because mind belongs to the few, heart to the many. These facts do not take away, in any particular, the fine though comparative value of what many are pleased to term the "scientific aspects" of social and economic relations. We are simply calling attention to what we believe to be fundamental in determining what are the factors that will bring to issue harmonious relations between hitherto hostile groups of labor forces.
We heartily believe healthy social progress will come to the Race and the country in general when all concerned come to see the true relations which should be maintained by all the elements of labor.—Ex.

NOTORIOUS CRIMINAL WILL PAY PENALTY FOR LIFE OF CRIME
(By Associated Negro Press)
Brooklyn, N Y., March 24.—Frank Kelly, awaiting execution at Sing Sing for the murder of Catherine Dunn, in Flatbush, on December 20, and self-confessed slayer of Emma McDonald some months earlier, is known in the West as Bus Cain, a murderer and fugitive from justice. Cain, it is learned, fourteen years age at Springfield, Mo., escaped from the clutches of a mob that burned three other Negroes at the stake. Since the lynching bee in Missouri the wanderings of Cain, or Kelly, have taken him over both Americas, North and South. The news that he had been sent to the death house in this state has just been received at Springfield. To the majority of those who remembered his earlier crimes he had long been considered dead.
To the good people of Springfield he had passed to an unknown beyond. When news that Frank Kelly was arrested on December 29th for the murder of Catherine Dunn in the home of her Flatbush employer, Clarence S. Clark, was flashed throughout the country, the residents did not suppose that he was Pus Cain. Nor were their suspicions aroused when, during the trial, he placidly revealed how he had shot to death some months before Emma McDonald, the B. R. T. ticket agent, whose body was found in a sand pit near Carnasie. The truth did not become known until a few days ago, when Kelly, imbued with the desperation of a convicted criminal, asked Springfield relatives for aid in securing an appeal of his case.
PROFESSOR THINKS EDITORS SHOULD PAY FOR POEMS
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, March 24.—In a specially prepared statement for the Associated Negro Press, Prof. Robert T. Kerlin, of the Department of English in the Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Va., makes a very pertinent comment with reference to the high appreciation of the poets in our group. "I have never assumed the role of adviser or preacher to the Colored people of America," says Prof. Kerlin, "but I am impelled to make an exception for once—in a worthy cause. Are you as a race supporting your poets? You are getting together manfully in business, in politics, in labor, in education, in charitable and religious works. Racial consciousness is strongly asserting itself throughout the whole domain of your life with this one exception. You do not—like many other races—value your poets at their worth. You are willing to let them furnish you the very bread of life while you permit them to suffer for the mere bread of existence. Is this right? Is it wise?
"Your poets are your prophets. Today they have a flaming message. They are embodying your ideals, your potests, in song. The lyrical cry is theirs—your cry. Theirs the articulation of it. Now no cause is greatly effective until the poets champion it. The poets have winged words, they pierce the hearts and consciences of men. They burn their way into our inmost thoughts. Poets are more to be dreaded by the forces of evil and injustice and oppression than politicians, yea, even than preachers; for the true poet is, I repeat, a prophet, a messenger of God.
"You have a dozen very able young song-makers whose poems your newspapers get, I understand, without cost.
"How are ye better than the gentiles if ye thus rob your poets? Support them, I say. They are a supreme honor to you as a people; and not only that, they are your ablest spokesmen, your heaven-sent servants. Give them for their service at least the means of subsistence. Buy their heavenly ware with your miserable filthy luce."

REPUBLICAN PARTY IS HOPELESSLY DIVIDED DOWN IN OLD VIRGINIA
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Richmond, Va., March 24.—Alleged "steam roller" tactics is believed to have hopelessly split the republican party in this neck of the political woods. The whites have declared war on the blacks and practically read them out of their branch of the republican organization, and the blacks have retaliated by electing a set of delegates to the national convention in Chicago next June. If the plans of the Negroes are carried out to the length of their declarations they will elect a full state delegation at a convention to be held in the city of Roanoke, where the state convention will be held the first part of next month. A considerable number of white republicans have "lined up" with the Colored men and have openly declared their intention to join hands with them at the state convention. The outcome is being watched with lively interest by both white and Negroes throughout the state.
TWO DISTINCT TYPES OF COLORED PEOPLE SAYS NOTED WRITER
TWO DISTINCT TYPES OF COLORED PEOPLE SAYS NOTED WRITER
Southern Pines, N. C., Mar. 24.—Around Southern Pines and Aberdeen there are two classes of Negroes. The one is marked by thrift and industry—the other is the come-day-go-day type common to all communities. H. A. Page, Jr., bought a large tract of land adjoining Southern Pines and he began to put it on the market to sell in a purely commercial manner, just as other folks do with similar propositions. He had not gone far before he found himself introducing a farm plan on a big scale, with roads, and the accessories that make farms, and then came an idea of making a section of home sites adjoining the town of Southern Pines for colored folks. This matter rather evolved itself, but Mr. Page finally reached the point where he set aside 86 acres, had roads cut through it, the roads clayed, just as we make the improved roads in the sandhills, lots of various sizes from the smaller building site to the bigger one of an acre or more were plotted by the engineer, and when all was done the tract was ready for sale.
The colored folks had watched the progress of the plan, and many of them discussed with Frank Buchan, who is the selling agent for the property, the prospect of buying locations. But he told them to wait until the engineer had finished the location of the improvements and the roads were built and the stakes set, and everything ready, and then he could talk definitely. The demands were so numerous that it was seen that the sale was destined to be a quick one, so at first it was proposed to put a price tag on every lot and parcel of land, and let the first man take it who would accept it at the price fixed. This plan appeared to be acceptable, but later the People's Realty Company of Aberdeen proposed to Mr. Page that they be allowed to sell the property at auction, to which he agreed and the Burton Brothers were engaged. Many went over to the sale because of the novelty of it and it was interesting, especially to the folks from the North.
It may not be possible for every town to plan a Negro addition on the same scale as this one at Southern Pines, but it is possible for every town to lend a hand in making the Negro home section of the community the most cheerful spot that it can be made for the colored population, and I doubt if anything that can be done will better pay in the long run at that.
CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY
OF CRISPUS ATTACKS
(By Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., March 24.—Colored people of Washington are holding celebrations this week to mark the 115 anniversary of the death of Crispus Attacks, the first Negro killed in the war for independence.
PROGRESSIVE AND ENTERPRISING CITIZENS OF NORFOLK, VA., PROVE WHAT CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY PUSH AND ENTHUSIASM
(By Associated Negro Press.)
Norfolk, Va., March 24.—The Tidewater cities, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Berkeley, Newport News, is the appropriate name by which the ports which border on the Chesapeake Bay are known. Their fame is already established in the East and so progressive and enterprising are the citizens of our group in this section that ere long the entire country is certain to be familiar with their worth-while achievements.
A representative of the Associated Negro Press paid a brief and hurried visit to Tidewater this week and while time did not permit anything like a thorough inspection, there were so many things of interest to be seen that we are giving our readers a brief survey of them.
Norfolk is the largest of these coastal cities, boasting a population of 100,000, of whom probably 65,000 are members of the Race. It is an exceedingly busy city, its real importance as a port and commercial center having been emphasized by the war, when its wonderful harbor became one of the principal embarkation and shipping points of the United States, while its shores were dotted with great manufactures, wholesale houses, naval bases and the like. The result was the growth of the population from 67,000 in 1811 to its present size.
Norfolk has not slackened pace because of the close of the war, and labor which commanded high wages then, continues to earn good pay with jobs awaiting everyone who comes prepared to work. Our group is a large factor in the labor situation and they have not failed to get their share in the great bulk of money in circulation. One of the concrete evidences of this fact is the unusual development of banking and similar institutions. The second strongest bank in the country, The Brown Savings bank, with a capital and surplus of $900,000, is located here, while setting a pace which bids fair to overhaul it is the Tidewater Trust and Savings Co., a new institution which has increased its resources $500,000 in the past six months. The Tidewater is housed in a beautiful new
ANTI-SEGREGATION CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED BY CHICAGO BLACKS
(By Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Mar. 24.—A large number of Negro residents of this city launched an anti-segregation campaign in which they are urging a "fight to the death rather than take a step backward, in the efforts to get our just rights." It is being predicted that if the present agitation of a certain class of whites is kept going that there will be a more serious outbreak next summer than occurred last summer, when the city was visited by an awful race riot.

bank building with every mechanical equipment and convenience. It has a large force which was needed on the Saturday morning I visited the institution for there were two lines of depositors who filled the banking room.
The officers of the Tidewater Bank and Trust company are: P. B. Young, president; G. H. Francis, vice-president; Levic Brown, vice-president; M. R. Jackson, vice-president; J. S. Jones, secretary-treasurer; G. W. C. Brown, assistant secretary; J. Eugene Diggs, counsel; Thos. H. Reid, assistant counsel.
Just across the river at Portsmouth is another strong institution, the Mutual Savings bank.
A few blocks down Church street, the Attucks theatre is being pushed to completion. The Twin City movement is behind this project and is building one of the largest Colored theatres in the country, seating 1400. This is an architectural gem and is being fitted out in luxurious fashion. This new enterprise is being pushed by Frank G. Russell, president; R. C. Young, secretary; G. H. Francis, vice-president. These progressive business achievements are but typical of the things Norfolk is doing. There are many other enterprises worthy of mention.
The notable thing about these endeavors is that they are not the result of single handed effort as is so frequently true of our racial enterprises. Our men of Norfolk have mastered the art of working together as a group. There are many substantial citizens with money and they come together with their resources and do things. Perhaps one of the most potent ways of developing the Tidewater spirit is that unseen force which seems to pervade everything and everybody.
In this section is the Norfolk Journal & Guide, a lively, up-to-the-minute newspaper published by P. B. Young and H. C. Young. This publication has devoted itself ever since it was published by these men some six years ago to boosting Norfolk. Every constructive move has had their support. They have not been selfish, but far seeing, and alert to the high duty which a newspaper owes to its community. The result has been that the Journal and Guide has been, if not the axis around which the progress has revolved, has at least been the lubricant which enabled it to run. This spirit has paid the Young Brothers in dollars and cents. Their up-to-date printing plant, worth $45,000, a massive brick building which houses it, together with other property which they have accumulated, speaks highly for their vision in sensing the true mission of a newspaper.
One cannot write in a brief space of the many things to be seen in Norfolk, but you cannot leave it without saying a word about its church edifices, said to be the finest of any city of its kind in the country. The First Calvary Baptist church, the Second Calvary Baptist church are large, new structures, while Bank Street Baptist church, developed by Dr. Chas. S. Morris, Jr., the well-known boy orator, is a worthy place for a king to worship with its modern arrangements and art windows in which have been painted colored subjects.
Professional men are not without their place in the city's life. The many doctors, lawyers and dentists are doing a thriving business. Portsmouth and Berkley, the former just across the river, the latter a suburb show equally high development. Portsmouth having about 26,000 high class, progressive Race people, while Newport News, an hour's ride on the ferry, is another war-made city and practically the same Tidewater spirit prevails.
The Tidewater spirit is a very real and tangible thing. It has taken advantage of the new Racial consciousness which cur group has developed during the past few years and is building a sure foundation for commercial construction of which the Race may well be proud.

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
palms upon feeling her cheeks burning.
He asked pointedly: "Can you recall the 'dirtiest young man' you ever saw?"
She bit her lip and stepped back from him. She was scarlet to her temples. "Yes—yes, I remember you now. You are the one I gave a dollar to yesterday. I believe you said your name was Fitz—Fitz something or other?"
"Fitzhugh."
"Oh, yes—Daniel Fitzhugh! I remember perfectly now."
"I'm glad you do."
Then he became aware that Symington Otis was standing in the doorway of the library. At sight of the man whom he half believed a dangerous lunatic taking the unthinkable liberty of addressing his daughter Otis' coolness had vanished, his restraint snapped.
Fitzhugh took the girl's hand, and in a vibrant voice, pregnant with far more significance than the words it uttered, said, "I will not say goodbye but au revolr." Then he turned and left the house. The front door had scarcely closed behind him before Otis wheeled upon his daughter.
"What did that man say to you?" he demanded.
"Why, n-nothing of any importance. Why?" She laughed nervously, like a child caught in some petty misdemeanor.
"Go to your room. That man was a maniac. He might have killed you. Where's Noonan?" He rang a servants' bell, ran to the hall telephone, rustled through the telephone directory, and got the Chicago avenue police station on the wire.
"Police headquarters? . . . This is Symington Oaks, Lake Shore drive, Crazy man just left my house. He's got a bundle of dynamite, so be careful how you handle him. . . . How'll you know him? Well, he's dark, very tall, well built, and about twenty-four or five years old; he wears a soft gray hat, tan shoes and a blue serge suit. The dynamite is wrapped in a newspaper. I'll have my butler and another servant follow him and keep him in sight. Goodbye."
When the big iron gate clanged behind Fitzhugh it was upon a very different young man from the one who had entered it, fired with anarchy and evil thoughts; he came out, fired with aspiration and good thoughts. Already his mind was busy with plans for the future. He must not see Esther again. He must forget her. He would do something big, place himself on an equal plane with the girl he had just left. There must be no more wildness, no more idlings, nor things forbidden by law. Ambition again throbbed in his veins, but it was the antithesis of last night's ambition: that had been the kind which tears down—this was the kind that builds up.
He turned south on the drive, his brain reveling in golden dreams. In his wake skulked the stout butler and a second servant, who, mindful of the telephoned word, "dynamite," took especial pains to keep a discreet distance between themselves and their quarry. Near Chicago avenue he saw a man dodge into an alley a short way ahead, and though he caught but a glimpse of the man's face, he recognized Detective Kelly. He turned swiftly, started back—and walked into the arms of two detectives, who seemed to appear from nowhere. Kelly came up on a run, tackled him from the rear and dexterously twisted the parcel from his grasp. "What's the charge, Kelly?" asked the prisoner, whose captors held him fast by either arm. "Or is it just because you owe me one?"
"Never mind what," growled Kelly. "You'll do a stretch this time you remember. That's enough for you to know."
En route to the police station the detective kept a nice distance to the rear with his trophy, and only with the utmost caution did he relinquish it to the desk sergeant.
Fitzhugh was booked under the name of Randolph Fitz and consigned to a cell with a "drunk and disorderly," a petty larceny case and two negro criminals.
When Symington Otis arrived at the police station the first person he met was Kelly, and the first question he asked, as he handed him a cigar, was, "Did you get him?"
"We got him all right," answered Kelly.
The last vestige of excitement vanished from the millionaire's face. "And the dynamite?"
Kelly exchanged meaning glances with the desk sergeant. "Sergeant," said he, "show Mr. Otis the dynamite." The sergeant bent his gaze thoughtfully upon the financier. "I don't know what passed between you and this fellow," he said, speaking very slowly, "and I don't know what you expect to see, but this is what he had on 'im.' And the sergeant held up a gymnasium swenter, once white and fresh but now soiled. "This is what he had wrapped in the newspaper, and 'is pockets was not burdened with so much as a match. If he had any dynamite on him it was inside of 'im, sir.'
Otis' lips came together in a hard line and his steel-gray eyes acquired the flinty glint which his subordinates and opponents in the wheat pit had long ago come to know and fear. The thought that he had been made a fool of by a brazen impostor was galling—far more galling than if the same impostor had really robbed him of the ten thousand dollars. All the rage, all the anger and contumely of the out-raged man of money power boiled within him as he whispered savagely to himself: "I'll fix him!" And yet again: "I'll fix him!"
Nashville, Tenn., March 24.—(Reciprocal News Service)—An end has come to the great Baptist lawsuit and Dr. Boyd and his associates were victorious. It occurred last week in the Supreme Court of Tennessee, when that court handed down their decision in favor of R. H. Boyd, C. H. Clark, J. P. Robinson, G. B. Taylor, L. L. Campbell, J. A. Brown, J. L. Harding and J. C. Field, constituting the National Baptist Publishing Board Convention constantly in debt for the past twenty years and that he had even failed to organize his Convention. When the Chicago Convention was called to order, the question of a charter was presented and upon three decisive votes the opponents of the incorporation were victorious, whereupon the Morris followers attempted to adjourn the convention.

The Supreme Court's decision upheld the decision, the decree and the opinion of the Civil Court of Appeals, who decided in favor of Dr. Boyd and his co-workers in the National Baptist Publishing Board. And the Civil Court of Appeals likewise had sustained Special Judge Cherry in the Chancery Court, who decided in favor of Dr. R. H. Boyd and his co-workers of the National Baptist Publishing Board. There have been three distinct decisions in the publishing house lawsuit in favor of the venerable Dr. Boyd. There were three decisions in the courts of Chicago in favor of Dr. E. P. Jones of the National Baptist Convention, Unincorporated, who is allied with Dr. Bayd and the workers of the publishing board. In the summing up the results, the Baptist folks declared that the Unincorporated Convention, known as the "Little R. F. D.'s", or "Jones Faction," by this decision of the Supreme Court, had won six decisive victories, thus putting out the E. C. Morris folks whom they have always styled as destructionists. There is a great deal of history in connection with the litigation which started in Chicago, Ill., in September, 1915; when the Convention separated over the question of a charter which had been obtained 1.7 seven men who were unauthorized to do so, and who proposed to confiscate all the property of the Negro Baptists of the United States. This charter, it is claimed, they make every church owning a dollar's worth of property, that enrolled with the Morris Convention responsible for the obligations of this Convention, regardless of how reckless Dr. Morris and his co-workers might be, as it is pointed out he ran the old

No doubt you ask the question. From the standpoint of both health and money, it is naturally a question to you. Equally so, and naturally, it is a question to us. So we are advertising-advertising to convince you that meat is the most economical, not only because it is the most healthful, but because in comparison to other food values, it is actually the cheapest. What is more satisfying? Do vegetables or does fish satisfy your appetite like meat? Is it not true that it takes less meat to satisfy than any other food? For this reason, mainly, it is cheaper. But there is another reason: Because the Phoenix Wholesale Meat Co. owns and operates 7 markets, it represents a purchasing and selling power through all co-operating that lessens the cost of meat, as well as making it possible to sell better meats, because there are greater and fresher quantities of meats and their by-products from which to select.

| (State Board of Health Getting U-
formation that Will Assist in Better-
ing Conditions in Arizona).
| ‘The State Board of Health has or-
ganized a bureau to perfect a state
health survey of Arizona with parti
cular reference to the problems ct
tuberculosis. There will be a careful
investigation of existing conditions in
all the larger centers of population
for the purpose of establishing the
needs of the state, so that such ac-
tivities as are essential may be ad-
vised and recommended. Mr. Charles
Cuvellier has l:2en chosen as director
of the survey. Mr. Cuyellier is exceu-
tive secretary of the Arizona Antk
Tuberculosis Society, and has had
wide experience in this kind of work.
He will secure his facts with trained
workers on the ground, co-operating
with the local -physicians, welfare
workers and various local organiza.
tions. In this way, information will
be secured upon which will be based
the plans for future activities. He
will also have the full co-operation of
the Bureau of Child Welfare.
In some places special ciinies will
be held to determine the physical
condition of children and establish
the jeeds of such as may require
special attention. Data will also be
secured regarding the incidence of
those diseases of children that spec
ially predispese the unfortunate to
tuberculosis and other serious intec-
tions. The. conditions of school
houses and school grounds, and what
the different communities are doing
to insure the best possible health
condition among’ the pupils, will be
investigated. The existing ‘water
supply of the different communities,
their needs and their possil<lities will
be looked into as well as the condi-
tions as to the sewage system, garb-
age disposal, and protection from flies.
It will be part of the work of the
survey to learn hqw far the differ
ent communities have so far met their
individual problems, ami the organi-
zations that are now handling the
work. An attempt will be made to
secure co-operation among the differ
ent organizations, where there is
more than one, and in the larger cit-
fes the! formation of public health
ceniers, such as are now operating
throughout the United States will be
encouraged. The public health cen-
ters will be directed by the- repre-
sentatives from the ‘vatfous existing
civic and charitat‘e organizations of
the community. This insures co-
grdination cf effort and prevents the
overlapping of activities. It will also
lessen the calls on the public purse
and make it much harder for the pro-
fessional mendicant to victimize the
community,
Public heaith centers make possible
a concentration of effort and of funds
through which many things can be
accomplished that most communities
need but cannot afford. They also
supply a recognized public institution
through which can be distributed,
without question as to sectarianism
or favoritism, such funds as may be
availalte for health work in the pub-
lic sehools, the funds ordinarily given
for health work by the city or county
or state to, various individual organi-
zations, and glso the donations of in-
dividuals and sustaining members of
the different organizations. Among
the activities directed by the public
health centers are:
Securing the appointment of pub-
lie health nurses to look after the
indigent sick, teach the well how to
live better, and, where there is no
school nurse, help in the schools.
Where several towns are close to-
gether to cnable the communities to
work as a unit, and accomplish re-
sults that cannot be afforded by the
individual towns. In other places pub-
lic health centers for the county can
be organized, and the employment of
school nurses wherever funds permit.
_ Provide hot lunches for all the
pupils. Investigation has shown that
the children of the well to do suffer
as much as those of the poorer famil-
jes from failure on the part of the
Parentg to provide proper food

Today marks the second milestone in our journalistic career, and, looking back over the past, we are reminded of many things tor which to be thankful. Two years ago, our ambition was fired and we decided to give the people of this section a TRIBUNE in spirit as well as in name. The Phoenix Tribune of today is the result of our efforts, and as to how well we have succeeded in making it the Tribune of our dreams, remains for you to say.
At the beginning, we realized that in order to succeed, a clear-cut and well-defined policy must be outlined and religiously ahered to. This we have done and are pleased to say that the success of the Tribune has far exceeded our fondest hope. We resolved at the outset that, politically, the Tribune should be nonpartisan, and we have not had occasion to regret the stand we have taken. It was also decided that the best way to conduct the paper would be along clean, conservative lines, striving always to bring about more friendly relations between the races and by so doing we hoped to raise the standard of journalism among our group. Our aim has been to make the Tribune an extraordinary paper, clean, conservative, and refrain from publishing those things which appeal to the passions and prejudices of either race.
The untiring efforts and energy put forth by us would have availed nothing had it not been for the ready response with which they were met by a generous, broad-minded and loyal group of people such as Arizona affords. We are, therefore, grateful to you for your hearty co-operation, and it is by your support that we expect to attain greater heights. Some day, we hope the Tribune will be numbered among the truly great papers of this country.

One thing the colored man needs to practice is race pride. We notice that every nationality under the sun, except the colored man, seeks its own. The Hebrew, the Japanese, the Chinaman, the Red Man, the Greek, the Mexican, all seek their own and are happiest when in company with members of their own race. Not so with us. We prefer the company of any group to that of our own. This indictment is not returned against every one of us, but a large number, necessarily, must admit the truth of the statement. Just as soon as new tracts are opened and the sale of lots begins, it is stated in bold-face type that race restrictions will prevail. This means that only people of a certain race may purchase homes in this neighborhood. When such tract is thrown open to the public, people of the desired race usually scramble for homes in the neighborhood. Suppose a desirable tract was thrown open exclusively for colored people. How many homes do you think the agent would sell? I'll tell you: NONE. A great objection raised by some who do not want colored neighbors, is that they build shacks and permit their places to run down, thus detracting from what otherwise might be a desirable neighborhood. Let's overcome this objection by looking after our yards (especially the back yard) and by the use of a little paint. Take more pride in your home and you will find that the chief objection to your presence in a neighborhood will have been removed. Generally speaking, if we took as much pride in keeping our premises looking neat and trim as we do in our personal adornment, none of us could offer serious objection to our neighbor.

Following is an article from the Argus, of St. Louis, Mo., showing what the colored people can do when united. They put a man out of business by withholding their trade. Read the article:
"The report that the boycott upon a white grocer, by the West End Business Association, had caused him to sell his store to the Negroes, is surely worth consideration by the best minds of the day.
"The very fact that never before has such a move been made by colored people as a redress of what they believed to be a wrong, shows that they are thinking as never before, and that the day has come, and now is, when no man can come to us and receive consideration at our hands and stab us in the back with impunity when we are not looking.
"The occasion which gave rise to this fight on Mr. Stork was augmented by the recital of many instances where white business men have come into communities, set up businesses and became rich off their colored patrons, and then moved or entered business in other neighborhoods, and refused to serve the same group who made them rich. Also the question of inferior service and general attitude came in for severe criticism.
"We are pleased to see the Negro waking up. Too long have we been passive to wrongs or wrongs perpetrated upon us as a group without protest. The West End Business Association has set the pace and we predict that their actions in the Stork affair will have its effect upon other merchants who come into our midst in the future."

St. Louis, Mo., Mar. 24.—Charles Nagel, secretary of commerce and labor in former President Taft's cabinet, has been asked by a committee of Negroes to become a candidate for United States senator, according to T. J. Woolley, one of the promoters of the Citizens' Liberty League, a race organization. Woolley says Nagel has told the committee he will take the matter under consideration. Aaron Lloyd, grand chancellor of the Negro Knights of Pythias of Missouri and president of the Citizens' Liberty League, said 50,000 Negro voters would soon hold membership cards in the league.
San Francisco, Mar. 24.—The Call-Post called attention recently to what it asserts is the situation in which the "educated, sensitive and intelligent" man of the Race finds himself in these days/in the United States of America
"The intelligent Negro is baffled and angry. He knows that the great mass of his race are ignorant and that their lives, are degraded. But he blames this ignorance and degradation on the intolerance of a people which has discovered it is white. He reads the history of the East and the South, and he is not ashamed of his color. He is proud of it. And if the intelligent Negro of today is bitter, pessimistic and intolerant—well, complacency, optimism and tolerance have never been virtues of the oppressed. The Negro may yet convince the white men that antipathy to color is not an instinct, but the consciousness of wrongdoing."

plains from one Clarence Webster and others concerning the treatment that it is said is being accorded Negroes by the police of the first district are being received by the city authorities. According to the stories, colored men are being arrested by the score in connection with the local crime wave. Council was told that declarations of innocence amount to nothing. It was claimed the laboring class gets the worst treatment. As a result, council has ordered a representative of the law department assigned to the Center street station until further notice to protect the rights of all Negroes brought in by the police.
New York, N. Y., Mar. 24—Hugh S. Martin, former captain in the United States army and chief of the Military Intelligence Service in North Russia, told of the danger from radical propaganda among the Negroes in this country. He said recently: "Bolshik propaganda is endeavoring to find a field among the Negro population of the United States as well as among foreign workmen in this country. The sole permanent solution lies in a proper understanding between the two races. Point out to a Negro that, although radicalism offers him temporary respite, in the end, as we have so clearly seen in Russia, the burden of inevitable disaster will fall mainly upon his shoulders."
Richmond, Va., Mar. 24.—Charles S. Morris, Jr., of Nortolk, Va., addressed a mass-meeting of colored people at Fifth Street Baptist church recently on racial problems in which he made a plea for better understanding of the races in their constant relations, lack of which he attributed to the bad spirit which exists between the white and colored people in all sections of the country.
Pointing out the hindrances of the colored race, the speaker discussed the economic and intellectual problems of the colored people, commending them for the spirit which impelled them to elevate themselves. He likewise referred to the Interchurch World Movement as a medium through which there would be a better understanding among the races.
Alexandria, Va., Mar. 24.—The Fairfax county branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People met in Falls church and planned a campaign for larger membership, better school facilities, increase of suffrage and improvements of roads and communities in the various locals of the branch.

"Is your husband a member of any secret society?"
"He thinks he is, but he talks in his sleep."

E MEMORIAL POSTER
MARNE MEMORIAL POSTER
JUST as the school children of France gave for their country's gift to the United States—the Statue of Liberty—so will American school children contribute "one cent and upward" for "America's Gift to France," a monumental statue by Frederick MacMonnies, the noted American sculptor. Mr. MacMonnies is contributing his services toward the monument which, it is estimated, will cost $250,000.
The poster shown herewith, is by Albert Sterner, noted American portrait painter. It typifies the tribute which this country will pay to the French through the Marne monument. The poster will be displayed in cities, towns, and villages, and will designate many of the places where contributions may be made during the week of March 22—a free-will offering, in which numbers of contributors, rather than size of contributions, will be sought from school children and others. Contributions are now being received at National Headquarters, 150 Nassau street, New York, by Charles H. Sabin, president of one of New York's largest trust companies, who is treasurer of the fund.

teenth Amendment to the national Constitution, new impositions of civic responsibility and radical departures from practices which have operated to a denial of the franchise to a considerable portion of the national citizenry.
"Grandfather clause," "permanent poll," and all of the political devices used by the "white South" to minimize the voting strength of our Race will be cast automatically into the waste-basket of political misuse by the unequivocal provisions of the suffrage amendment. For not only will approximately three million Negro women be added to the voting elements of the nation, but the Negro man will be strengthened in his position as a citizen of the national and state commonwealths.
But there also comes to us a grave realization of the increased responsibilities that have come to us in the meantime. The intelligent Negro women must take a more commanding place in the social orders of the land. There can be no shirking or pandering of the instinct for political gain in any direction.
NATIONAL HEALTH WEEK
The situation of national health make a public question of deep concern for all the elements of the people in our common land. Our race should have a sincere interest in this matter. Lowest in the economic scale, smallest in social significance and weakest in physical power, it becomes imperative that we take advantage of any opportunity which will enable us to increase our store of general knowledge and thereby add strength and vision to the social efficiency of our kind. National Health Week will soon be with us. Whatever of program shall be provided for that occasion must be eagerly scanned in an effort to provide every facility for the people at large to get a clear understanding of health as it affects the enure nation.
We are one-tenth of the nation. If one-tenth of the nation is in ignorance of the laws that serve to maintain health, it means that the nation will finally succumb to the ravages of pestilence and disease. Black or white has nothing to do with the matter except where criminal intention aims to keep any of the elements in ignorance of the laws that provide the relations of improved social conditions. This is why the more intelligent members of the race should busy themselves to the end that every individual of the group shall be made aware of the significance and importance of the coming Health Week. Health is our biggest asset. Without it, we must fade from the face of the earth. With health we can survive to take a worthy place among the strong peoples of the earth. Remember Health Week and Keep It Holy.
AN ADMIRABLE PROGRAM
(BY ASSOCIATED Negro Press)
Birmingham, Ala., Mar. 24.—The News of this city calls attention to the recently organized Negro Board of Arbitration in an editorial which says in part: "All thoughtful, patriatic, kindly white people will be pleased at one of the undertakings inaugurated to lessen the tendency to friction between the two races." The editorial calls the organization of the board "an admirable program of purpose," and says further, "the mass of white people, too, will be pleased to see that Negroes of character and true spirit are willing to step forward and to help in such a progressive, constructive step."

New York, N. Y., March 24.—The Master Musician Magazine, being owned and published by a Colored firm known as The American Music company of Philadelphia, Pa., is winning great success in New York City, where the circulation has soared far beyond the greatest expectation. It is the only periodical of its type on the market.
THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING

New York, N. Y., March 24.—Roland Hayes, the noted tenor, scored an unqualified triumph at his recital on the night of the 11th of March.

Mr. Hayes will leave shortly for Africa, where he will study Negro music and its origin. His trip will include recitals in London and Paris.
SOCIETY PROTECTS ANIMALS
(By Associated Negro Press)
Norfolk, Va., Mar. 24—At the Booker T. Washington high school a meeting of colored school teachers and others for the purpose of forming a permanent organization of the auxiliary to the Norfolk Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was held on the night of March 10th. W. T. Cloud gave a lecture on anti-cruelty work, illustrated with stereoptic views, showing the need of more persons becoming interested in the care and protection of dumb animals. This lecture was free and business firms employing colored drivers were asked to let them off from work so that they would have time to attend the meeting.

Providence, R. I., March 24.—Mrs.
Lucinda R. Scott, one of the most
widely known Colored women in this
city, has been named president of the
Colored women's republican organization with Mrs. L. Singleton as vice president, Mrs. S. R. Suttles as secretary, Mrs. M. A. Handy, as assistant secretary, Mrs. E. Armstrong, as chaplain, and Mrs. Ida Tutt as one of the directors.
QUALIFIED
She (romantically)—The man I marry must be willing to go through fire for me.
He—Then I'm the man. The boss has fired me for telephoning you so often.
SENSE AND SOUND
How oft you find the boisterous boys
Into oblivion sinking!
The brass band makes the biggest
noise,
But doesn't do the thinking.
SUFFICIENT REASON
Mrs. Scalds—And just think of what a loving couple they were when they got married. I wonder what caused them to quarrel so.
Mrs. Gossiphe—I found out today. She plays a better game of golf than he does.
HIS CHANCE FOR A DIG
"John," asked his wife, who was writing to one of her married friends, "which is proper to say, I differ from you' or I differ with you?'"
"Tell her you differ from her. She lets her husband have a part of his salary to buy cigars and such things."
PERSONAL PETS
"Every man is entitled to his opinion."
"Yes," replied Senator Sorghum; "the same as a man is entitled to a composite breed of dog. It may be nothing to be proud of, but it's his if he wants to hold on to it."
"I don't care for the young man. Suppose you are making a mistake in marrying him?" "Well, if I am, you'll supply me with a divorce fund, won't you, dear old popsy?"
CITY OF PURPLE DREAMS
The first person besides the newspaper men to visit Fitzhugh was Esther Strom. He shook hands with her through the iron grating of his cell.
"Welcome!" he cried gaily. "But how'd you know?"
"I came as soon as I saw this," she replied, taking a newspaper from under her cloak and holding it between the bars to him. His eye caught a front-page headline:
"MADMAN RUNS AMUCK!"
Turning the page he found a group of snapshots of himself in diverse attitudes.
"Here's progressive journalism!" he laughed, slapping the paper with the back of his hand. "These things were taken less than two hours ago. Not bad work, either." He regarded them critically. He gloried in the notoriety. She pressed closer to the bars, and there was a troubled expression on her face. "We must get you out of this some way; and you mustn't treat it so much as a joke, for it's not. I've a friend who's a lawyer. I'll send him to you. I'll manage to pay him somehow, some time."
"But why?" he asked.* "Why bother about me at all? I'm nothing to you." "I'll send him right away," she promised. "Goodby." She pressed his hand and was gone.
Barely an hour after Esther's departure the guard let into the cell a rotund, sleek-looking man who introduced himself by printed card as "Roger Merton, attorney and counselor-at-law, Ashland block, Chicago, hours nine to five." He sat down beside his client on the foul bunk, and behind his plump hand gave a genteel little cough.
"My boy," he said. "you have only one defense. It's insanity—don't get excited!"
Fitzhugh laughed. "Do I look excited? he asked easily, and added, "or insane?"*
"You're not insane. Nobody said you were. But for a while you've got to act insane. It's your only hope,
ROBIN MYERS 19
"You've Got to Act Insane."
and I'm pretty sure you're equal to the acting. If you plead crazy—and act and talk and look crazy (it'll be easy for you)—it's more than likely you'll get off lightly. It's your only chance. Absolutely the only one. I'm not saying it's a fat one or a soft one. I only say it's your only one. Good day!"
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The case occupied little time. The prisoner was adjudged insane and committed to the Dunning insane asylum until declared cured. Two stalwart officers, neither of whom was as muscular as he, escorted him to the street.
Upon Fitzhugh's arrival at Dunning he was taken to the superintendent's office, and there, questioned about his family, gave the same fictitious replies that had satisfied the police. Next he was examined by a physician. It was the second time he had enacted the part of a lunatic, and his personation must have been done with some success, for his "disease" was diagnosed, and he was classified and assigned to a ward. After the customary routine of bathing and denning the regulation garb he had leisure to sit down and plan his escape. This seemed so ridiculously simple that he almost regretted the need be nothing spectacular about it, that there was no necessity for overpowering a guard or breaking bars, or for any other kind of heroes.
While entering the grounds he had kept his eyes open, with the result that he had a rough mental picture of Dunning's topography, and after the first night he was positive he would be free before the dawn of another day.
He lay awake until broad daylight, hoping the next night would be a cloudy one, listening to the unearthly sounds that came at intervals from the violent wards—and thinking, thinking. He thought mostly of the future, and the more he thought of it the more wide awake he became. Sleep was out of the question.
Before noon that day came Esther. She had brought him a basket of edibles, and as she placed it on a table beside him he detected in her manner a disquieting suggestion of constraint. But her first words were commonplace enough.
"Oh, about as well as I look, I suppose."
"I never saw you looking better," she admiringly observed.
"You must remember you have

Blue Bird SAYS Mr. Man
If your wife has done the washing over a rub board, she did so to give you and the children clean clothes.
If your wife ironed all day by hand over a hot ironing board, she has spent the day at the hardest kind of work that you and your children might have freshly ironed linens.
If your wife has cleaned house with a broom and dust pan it was because she wanted you to have a clean and restful place in which to live.
If you had these tasks to perform would you use the antiquated methods used by your grandmother fifty years ago? You most certainly would not—and why expect your wife to do so.
The Home Appliance Company is an organization that has dedicated itself to the solving of these problems.
A study has been made of the tools and appliances which can be used by the women of the home to make their work more pleasant and more efficient.
A well equipped, home-like store has been placed at your disposal. Come in and talk over these problems with us and see what modern science has done toward making the "Business of Housekeeping" as efficient as that of running a railroad, and housekeeping is a greater business than all the railroad systems combined.

Labor-Saving Devices Boon to Housewife
An old Chinese proverb expresses the thought that "a hundred men make an encampment, but it takes a woman to 'make a home.' And next to her family there's nothing dearer to a woman's heart than her home.
First comes the delight in furnishing it and then comes the desire to keep it always as sweet and clean as it was when new. The keeping of a home is not the laborious task that it was in days gone by. Home-making is a pleasure when done in the modern fashion and takes but one-third the time.
Man's genius for invention has been applied recently to problems domestic and of the hundred and one labor-saving appliances, the suction cleaner has contributed much to the comfort and leisure.
First we had to endure the dust-scattered broom and the task of dusting afterwards, for the broom really only removed the dirt from one place to another. Then the carpet sweeper made its bow, only to be replaced by the more efficient electric cleaner. And by these steps we have arrived at the easiest, most sanitary and thorough method of cleaning the home and keeping it always neat and clean.
In the living room are rugs, perhaps highly prized, with delicate colorings easily dimmed by dirt. They should be kept clean for it is dirt that cuts the nap and shortens the life of rugs. It is not hard to keep them clean with a modern cleaner which runs lightly over any kind of rug. The cleaner does all the work, supplies all the energy and all the while unseen, the dirt is being removed dustlessly from the fabric of the rugs.
Keeping the dining room spotless is a simple matter if the cleaner is run over the rug after each meal. Crumbs and soft food particles are picked up without injury to the rugs and the life of the floor covering is thus lengthened.
BUY YOUR AUTO NOW ADVICE OF DEALERS
Immediate deliveries on all cars in the Salt River valley will soon be a thing of the past unless all signs are absolutely misleading. In fact, the spring months of 1920 bid fair to show the greatest automobile shortage in the history of the industry, states R. D. Roper of the Roper Motor Co., Maxwell and Chalmer distributors.
At the present time the automobile companies have cars but are unable to get freight equipment sufficient to supply the western demand. For the first time in the history open flat cars and gondola cars are being used for shipments from Detroit to the Pacific coast and Arizona. But with a/freight car situation that is growing worse, the eastern part of the United States where it is feasible to have drive away from the factories is developing a market stronger as the spring grows nearer, and it looks as if the middle west and east will be more than able to absorb all the cars the factories can produce.
This means that even if the freight cars situation should improve, the eastern demand will be so great that few western states will receive their car quotas. On top of this the announcements come from Detroit that unsatisfactory labor conditions and general unstability of prices are having their effect on the automobile manufacturers to such an effect that they are planning on a curtailment rather than an expansion of production.
Our Maxwell experience the last few months is indicative of the general situation. For two months we are without sufficient cars. Shortly after the first of the year a solid trainload of cars was shipped west of which Sarival received 76 cars, they arriving here about 30 days ago. These cars have been delivered at the rate of about fifteen a week in the valley until they are nearly exhausted. But three carloads of Post War Maxwells are now en route and the future is very doubtful as to deliveries.
At present, however, and until the shipment now en route is exhausted, continues R. D. Roper, we will continue to deliver the latest two unit type of Post War Maxwells at present prevailing price.

ENLIGHTENED AND AROUSED PUBLIC OPINION NECESSARY TO ABOLISH LYNCHING
Serious discussion of effective means to abolish lynching first consideration must be given to the awakening, the enlightenment and molding of public opinion. No matter what methods are suggested, the way in which they will work out will depend largely on the sort of public opinion they have to encounter.
The first thing of all to realize is that public opinion in the United States is not against lynching; if it was, lynching as it is carried on in this country could not exist.
Of course, there are vast numbers of Americans who are shocked and horrified at the mere thought of lynching, but the great majority are not. There are millions of law abiding people in the United States men and women who would not knowingly violate a municipal regulation, who while they may not endorse the lynching of Negroes, at the same time do not condemn it.

SEVERAL million dollars have been expended to provide more elegance, more refinement, more comfort to the current Maxwells. It is in ever so many ways a superior appearing car; superior, too, in action. But not a single pound of weight has been added to burden the work of its great engine! Therefore, despite the many processes of improvement, it doesn't cost a penny more to run a Maxwell than it did a year ago. The underlying principle of every Maxwell is to give economic transportation. This means light weight. But it means strong steels, as well.

It is no easy trick to provide both lightness and strength in metal. Such a rare combination means high cost steels. And you would find, if you compared a Maxwell with any car, that it equaled that car pound for pound in fine metals. How such steels affect your pocketbook is obvious. 1. They are light in weight and hence give more mileage on a gallon of gasoline. 2. As they are fine steels they give long and uninterrupted wear. Which are but two of many reasons for that definite tendency of world-wide friendship towards Maxwell. In six years nearly 400,000 have found their answer to the motor car question in a Maxwell. This year 100,000 Maxwells are being produced. This will supply but 60% of the demand.

which may not be clear to themselves they feel when a Negro is lynched that perhaps, after all, it was about the best thing that could be done under the circumstances. This inerita, this condoning attitude of American public opinion is the most difficult condition to be reckoned with in any effort to abolish lynching.
There is a reason for this condoning attitude. A reason which sprang from distortion and misrepresentation, and which has been fostered by well directed propaganda. The impression has been graven on the minds of the public at large in this country that the lynching of Negroes and the crime of rape go together. In the mind of the American public at large the idea has been more or less firmly imbedded that rape and the lynching of Negroes in the south bear the relation of cause and effect.—James Weldon Johnson.
PROMINENT BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL MEN WILL VISIT TUSKEGEE

Tuskegee, Ala., March 24.—Dr. Robert T. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, announced that a party of thirty or more business and professional men of Kansas City, Mo., headed by Prof. J. R. F. Lee of Lincoln high school would visit Tuskegee about the middle of April. According to present plans the party will visit Memphis, Birmingham, Montgomery, Tuskegee, Atlanta, Chattanooga and Nashville.

FUTURE OF AMERICA LARGELY DEPENDENT UPON THE BLACK MAN
Bridgeport, Conn., March 24.—Fair play and no favor was the thread of the argument and address of Lawyer William H. Lewis of Boston at the high school auditorium in his plea for fair play for the Negro.
Mr. Lewis said that "much of the future of America depends upon the Negro. They are believers in the present order of things, are not Socialists or Communists and are believers in the gospel of work.
"We can depend on our own merits and take our own chances if given opportunity in industries, and will show our own character and will go up or down on our own merits as we deserve."
LAITY FINDS FAULT WITH PRESENT SERVICES RENDERED BY CHURCHES
There are a great many people, and far from being the worst, who while believing firmly in the Christian dogma are dissatisfied with the service the church and its ministers render them for the time and money they are called upon to contribute to the maintenance of them. Instead of regarding the church as a material asset they are coming to regard it as a spiritual loss, as neither appears on the face of it to do anything to promote these material interests of their membership in the present so that they may be the better prepared to enjoy the spiritual benefits of the hereafter.—Norfolk (Va.)

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
CITY OF PURPLE DREAMS
way and that, trampling the weak underfoot, crushing, struggling, swearing, without reason or purpose. The police, instantly suspecting a riot, rushed in, using their batons freely. By sheer strength Fitzhugh wedged his way to the protection of a door, which, being partly open, gave way before the impact of his body, precipitating him into a narrow hallway. He regained his feet in a second, and stepping outside closed the door and stood with his back against it. The next moment a singular thing happened. From out that frenzied mob, like a ship tossed by a restless sea into a haven of safety, a woman was swept squarely into his arms. For a bare moment he held her, flushed and palpitating, in a close embrace. Then he released her and saw her hat was missing and that her clothing was torn and disarranged.
"Thank you!" she exclaimed breathlessly.
The rays of a near-by street lamp fell athwart her face, and his first thought was that she was a Jewess; then a Russian, he added, apparently of good birth and schooling. Though she spoke with a slight foreign accent, her English was grammatically perfect. Her forehead, unusually broad and high for a woman, and her cast of features denoted uncommon intellect.
Like angry waves the mob raged about them in their inadequate refuge, and he opened the door, pushed her into the hallway, and followed, closing the door behind them.
"You'll find it safer in here," said he, and added with some hesitation: "I—my name is Fitzhugh. You needn't tell me yours if you'd rather not."
"I see no reason why I shouldn't," she retorted, yet with the hot color flooding her cheeks. "I am Esther Strom, Mr. Fitzhugh, and I am very happy to know you, even if only for a minute." She held out to him a small, dark hand, and he pressed it in his large, white one.
"Are you going inside?" she asked.
"I don't think so," he laughed, and motioned toward the crowd outside.
"How can I?"
"You—I might be able to get you in—if you care to go."
He started. "Then you are an—"
"Oh!!" Her hand fumbled excitedly at her neck, then dropped to her side with a little gesture of dismay. "I'm afraid I've lost something—something I valued very much. It was a brooch—an heirloom. And I've lost it!"
He struck a match, and together they searched the floor.
"Perhaps you dropped it outside," he suggested; and feeling the necessity of doing something, yet knowing the futility of the action, he opened the door leading to the street. Midway between the door and the alley, against the brick wall of the building, he saw a large packing case. He noted it was of strong material, re-enforced at the corners.
The woman seemed to have forgotten her loss in the rush of some stronger emotion. She stood beside him, gazing at the unclean crowd with wistful eyes, and there shone in the liquid depths a great sadness, and something far rarer besides—sympathy. "You poor, wretched people!" he heard her murmur. "How I wish I could talk to you as I should like to!"
He looked at her quickly. His budding thought burst suddenly into full bloom. To "show off" before this woman, to parade his talent before her, to impress her and win her admiration—what delight that would be!
"Perhaps I could do it for you," he offered, his voice betraying his eagerness. "Would you like to hear me try?"
Without waiting for her answer, fearful lest it be a negative, he elbowed his way to the packing case, mounted it, drew a deep breath, and stood up to his full height. The arc lamp, beating upon his face, served uncommonly well for a calcium light. "Fel-low cit-i-zens!" His deep-toned bass boomed up and down the street. "The time has come for revolt. The rich and the mighty have ground us in the dust long enough. We must turn. We must claim our own. We are the pro-ducers—the backbone of this pow-er-ful nation. Who shall control it—the capitalists or the working-men?"
His voice, deep and sonorous, pronouncing each word very fully and very distinctly, rang out over the disordered crowd like a foghorn cutting through a misty night.
It was the old story of noise being mistaken for wisdom, and it inflamed his hearers like fire to dry twigs. Nothing could have more aroused them. When after several minutes of thunder and bombast he brought his address to a whirlwind close and bowed and turned to climb down, there was a rumbling, mumbling, confused outcry that arose, one solid roar of approbation, and lasted until the givers thereof were hoarse. He fought his way through his newly made admirers and returned to the woman, whom he saw standing in the doorway, waiting for him.
She pulled him inside and stood with her back against it, looking at him with shining eyes. "I—I want you to speak for us tonight. Won't you, please?" She leaned nearer him, resting her hand on his arm, and her eyes as well as her lips said "please." He felt a peculiar impulse to put his arms around her, and conquered it just in time. "There's a side entrance. I have the 'open sesame.' I will take you on the platform with me. You will come, won't you?" Again that pleading of mouth and eye. She stepped into the street. "Are you coming?" she called back.
"Coming?"—he hurried after her and took her arm, the better to protect her from the jostling throng. "You bet I'm coming. With you!"
PREACHER'S CRITICISM OF CITY ADMINISTRATION ELICITS SHARP REPLY
(By Associated Negro Press)
Philadelphia, Pa., March 24.—The Rev. Carl E. Grammer's criticism of Mayor Moore's administration and the alleged political purposes of the proposed Bureau of Negro Welfare in the Department of Public Welfare brought a tart reply from the Mayor.
"I guess I'll not mention any names." said the Mayor, "but I wish those criticising the motives of the administration without knowledge would first come and find out what they were talking about."

Reflecting the seriousness of the fuel oil situation, the geological survey announced Tuesday that the demand for crude oil in January was about 4,750,000 barrels greater than in December. This demand, the announcement said, will require a continued increase in domestic production and in Mexican imports, together with heavy drafts on stock on hand which now are none too large.

TENNESSEE FARMERS ARE TIRED OF WORKING MERELY FOR LANDLORD
(By Associated Negro Press)
MEMPHIS, Tenn., March 24—More than 200 with their children were at the agricultural and home economics short course at Woodstock. Bolton Smith delivered the main address.
The need of immediate heed by white land owners of a fairer lease system, as has been advocated by the farm development bureau of the Memphis chamber of commerce was emphasized by every speaker during the meeting.
"Good farmers are leaving the farms and going into the cities to work, about which they know nothing, just to get bread and meat," Robert Bernard, Negro farmer, stated. "The tenants have worked for the landlord's rent, a bale to ten acres, which at times has failed to accrue from the poorer land. At settling time in the fall enough was expected to remain for the merchants who furnished supplies and the tenant himself. As a result many farmers have begun to cut cross ties and engage in other side line, in which they were little versed."
Unless conditions are changed there will not be a Negro worker left on the farms. Another speaker declared that the Negro could not be expected to remain on the farm when he finds himself unable to make enough to buy an occasional dress or hat for wife and daughter.
TIME TO DELIVER
(Washington Cor. Birmingham Age-Herald)
Constitutional amendments have become so exceedingly popular that every man seeking redress comes to Congress demanding one.
There must be a federal statute against lynching. George W. Cook, a professor at Howard University, representing the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, says so. He told the house judiciary committee that if such a law is not possible of creation under the constitution, the constitution should be changed—amended.
N. H. Thomas, an erudite Negro, thrilled the committee by his references to the Washington race riots last July, and swore that if the government did not devise means of stamping out lynching, the colored people "would be forced to fight for their rights."
Arthur B. Spingarn, a captain in the service, declared to the committee that there were 82 lynchings last year, twelve men having been burned at the stake.
"Amend the constitution," they urged in union. When handicaps in that direction were cited, they again exclaimed, "The constitution has been amended and may again be amended."
The republican membership of the committee gave the spokesman careful attention.

APPROPRIATED FOR NEGRO MEDICAL EDUCATION
WASHINGTON, D. C., March 24. At its meeting, held in New York City, Thursday, February 26, the General Education Board, founded by John D. Rockefeller, appropriated $250,000,000 toward an endowment fund of at least $500,000.00 to be used by Howard University for medical education, "the income from the appropriation to be made available pending completion of the full amount." The Howard University Medical Schol is the only Class "A" medical institution for the training of Negro physicians, dentists, and pharmacists in the country. Its students have free access for instruction to Freedmen's hospital, supported by the government, which is the largest and most important hospital for Negroes in the world. Many of the most successful medically trained men of the Negro race have received their training here in Washington at Howard University.

THE GOVERNMENT CHALLENGED
(Houston, Tex., Post)
But it was the government of Kentucky that the mob attacked when they undertook to take the Negro away from Kentucky authorities, and by that act they placed themselves in the position of insurrectionists, challenging the authority of their government. When men do that, they ought to know they take their lives into their own hands, and have no redress if they come to grief.

GREATER PROSPERITY NOW AMONG BLACKS THAN EVER BEFORE
During the last few months there has been a large amount of properties acquired by Negroes. This movement has not alone been confined to the apartment or tenement house, but has also extended into the dwelling house field. Neyor before in the history of the country has the Negro population been so affluent as at present, and many of them are investing their capital in real estate. There are several instances on record where this race has formed realty companies and acquired properties which involve a considerable amount of money. These houses have been modernized and compare favorably with houses of the same class in other sections of the city—N. Y. Sun.

I notice that the 400 regulars who were ordered to Lexington, Ky., for the purpose of preventing a Negro lynching had a very sobering effect on the lynch law populace. The Kentucky National Guard, Shufine as it is, Suh, but narrowly averted another superb southern hanging.
Immediate and extensive enlargement of naval docking and basing facilities on the Pacific and legislation to provide a naval reserve force of at least 200,000 were advocated Monday before the house naval committee by Secretary Daniels. The secretary asked authority to start construction of a new naval base on San Francisco bay below Mare island and urged that $10,000,000 be made available at once. He first estimated the cost at $75,000,000, but later said it might be done for $40,000,000.

NEGROES OF WICHITA WANT JIM-CROW PARK
(By Associated Negro Press)
WICHTA, Kans., March 24—That McKinley park, Seventeenth street and Ohio avenue should be officially designated as a recreational grounds for the colored people of the city is asked in a letter from a delegation of colored citizens addressed to the park board. The letter asks that the city furnish money with which to light the park and to make other improvements.
By refusal of the supreme court to review the case, federal court decisions holding that the transportation of women from one state to another in private automobiles for immoral purposes comes within the provisions of the white slave act will stand.

THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS. IMPROVING
Smulski's hall was a vast, barnlike structure of one floor. Every inch of floor space was occupied by sweltering humanity, and when Fitzhughe rose to make his address he faced an audience of fully three thousand. He walked to the edge of the platform and stood looking out over that silent sea of upturned faces, with scarcely an idea of what he was to say. Yet he felt a tingling thrill of pleasure that for a moment was as wine to his senses. He knew what he could do, and he exulted in his gift. Many times before he had moved men with it, but never so large a gathering as this.
At the back of the platform, seated among her "comrades," Esther Strom leaned forward in her chair, her lips slightly parted, her dark eyes sparkling. From that moment until the close of his address her gaze never left his face.
Fitzhugh charged into his address. His voice, very low at first, swelled fuller and louder and clearer as he spoke, until its resonant ring thundered and echoed through the mammoth hall. The crowd became as a single body with a single mind, which drank in his words thirstily. He swayed and moved it this way and that with the apparent ease of the wind swaying a field of wheat. It was not what he said, for he said nothing great, but the way he said it that so stirred his auditors. Those who had gone before spoke to the mind. He spoke to the heart.
There was a moment's calm before the storm of applause broke. It roared in upon him, wave upon wave, and he stood up, smiling and bowing, to meet it. He was immediately surrounded by a group of men and women, who, in their own way, showered him with congratulations, heaped flattering eulogies upon him.
Turning to greet a fresh delegation who had just joined the group around him, he saw Esther standing a short way off. As their eyes met she beckoned him and he went to her.
"You must let me have him now," she said, smiling upon the admirers who had followed him. "He is my discovery, you know, and there are many things I want to say to him."
"Bring him back soon, Esther, called one of the men—a blotch-skinned, yellow-haired giant called Nikolay. I want to give him literature."
She nodded brightly over her shoulder, and led her captive from the stage and into an adjacent room. Once alone with him she seized his hands and raised her face, eager and radiant, to his.
"I knew you could do it—I knew it! And there's something else I know."
"Well, let's have it," he said a trifle brusquely. "What else do you know—about me?"
"I know that you can be a great man." She had waxed suddenly very earnest. "You have it in you. You must take what is yours! You owe it to yourself!"
"Give me your address," said he, "and I'll come to you."
She hurriedly wrote something on a slip of paper and handed it to him.
"Come—any time," she told him, and turned toward the door.
"Isn't there another way out?" he asked, detaining her. "I don't care to run the gantlet of that hand-shaking brigade again."
She unbolted a door at the end of the room and disclosed a rickety wooden staircase leading to a back alley. He pressed her hand, murmured a word about a future meeting and was gone.
On a fine spring day the finest promenade in Chicago and the loneliest is the Lake Shore drive. Theoretically it is the Champs Elysées of the western metropolis; ordinarily it is as silent, as deserted as an isplaced country road. On this particular morning it was very attractive and very desolate. The only sign of life in the nabobs' thoroughfare (if one excepts the sparrows) was a penniless young man. Under his arm he carried a newspaper parcel. There was a singular glint in his eyes, a singular expression on his face, as well there might be, for, indeed, it was a preposterously reckless thing he was contemplating. Subconsciously his thoughts were of the dark-haired Russian woman and an early sight of her; and it was this, no less than his inordinate passion for the theatrical and spectacular, that gave birth to the extravagant notion that occupied his mind.
"In any event," he told himself. "I can do no worse than lose. And look what I stand to win! Because it has never before been successfully done is no reason why I cannot do it."
He stopped before a gray stone mansion of flamboyant architecture surrounded by a twenty-foot cast-iron fence, both of which plainly exploited the idiosyncrasy of some millionaire. One of the lower wildlands was raised, and through the shrubbery he saw silhouetted therein an elderly man, white of hair, patrician of aspect, lean of face, reading a newspaper. Fitzhugh, peering between the iron rails of the Brobdingnagian fence, regarded him a minute, walked on a few paces, returned, and watched him again, not unlike some Indian chieftain gloating over a helpless captive. Of a sudden, as one who plunges into a cold shower on a frosty morning, he inid hold of the mammoth gate, which seemed to weigh tons, swung it back on its huge hinges, walked to the front door and vigorously worked the knocker.
After an appreciable wait the door was opened. "What is it?" inquired the butler, who in one brief glance seemed to appraise the caller's financial status and social standing. "Many things. First the name of (Continued on Page 5)

AMERICANIZE WHITES AND BATTLE IS OVER AVERS GREAT WRITER
(By William Pickens)
It happens to be that the Negro is the most American group in the country both in ancestry and in point of attitude of mind. His lines reach much further back than that of the average white man of the country. In spite of his low status
in spirit he is less arrogant, more liberal and democratic and believes more sincerely that "all men are born free and equal." He does not believe that he is naturally entitled to more privileges than other breeds of men. That is the very essence of the spirit that made America. The Negro does not lynch, and does not act by virtue of mobs. He wants the case tried in court. He wants law and order to be supreme, and as a group he does not ask any artificial advantage of any other group. That is of the essence of America. The intelligent Negro is therefore puzzled when he hears anybody talking about Americanizing the Negro. He knows that the battle would be over if only we could Americanize the white man.

Little Lillian Stewart celebrated her seventh birthday, Sunday, March 14th. A number of her little friends was present and all had an enjoyable time.
Sunday, March 28, will be Palm Sunday and the ladies of Cochise Chapter, No. 117, O. E. S., will turn out and listen to a sermon at the St. James, C. M. E. church. There are two chapters in Douglas and Cochise extends an invitation to the other ladies to turn out with them.
Good Hope Chapter, No. 65, met last Thursday afternoon in regular communication and several candidates were initiated into the order.

The rally given by the C. M. E. church, Sunday, March 21, was indeed a success. All churches of the city closed their doors and went over to help the C. M. E. people in this rally. All were eager to see "his side" win. The church had been divided into three regiments which were as
given them. This was known as a three months' battle with its final winding up March 21. At 8:30 on the evening of the above date the regiments pitched their last battle and at 9:20 they were called in by Rev. J. R. Rector, who was styled as General. The reports were as follows: First regiment, 24th Infantry, Capt. Kinchlue, raised $104.80; second regiment, 25th Infantry, Capt. Hex, raised $150.80; third regiment, Tenth Cavalry, Captain Hunt, raised $375.55. Total raised by all regiments, $631.15. This is a remarkable show-

CITY OF PURPLE DREAMS
the gentleman who is sitting in the room to my right engrossed in the morning news."
"What is your business?"
"Answer me first!" ordered Fitzhugh sternly, and with such an air of hauteur and authority that the sapient mental was almost in a panic for fear he had misjudged his man.
"That is Mr. Symington Otis, sir."
"I wish to see him. Be so good as to tell him so."
"Who shall I say, sir?"
Fitzhugh hesitated a moment, and, like a lightning panorama, there flashed across his mind telegraphic pictures of myriad hands applauding him, of the warm-blooded Russian, whose eyes bespoke her love for him, of the dark-skinned "reds" voicing their iconoclastic views. And a whimsical idea came.
"Tell Mr. Otis," said he, "that an emissary of the Cause desires to speak with him."
The butler, though not understanding, was instantly suspicious.
"I am afraid," he demurred, with a firm shake of his head, "that Mr. Otis is very busy and will be unable to see you."
Fitzhugh thrust his foot between the closing door and the wall; and at that moment Mr. Otis stepped into the hall.
"Well, Noonan?"
"This man, sir, is trying to force his way in. I am just about to eject him, sir."
Fitzhugh laughed merrily. "Oh, no, you're not, Noonan." And before the corpulent Noonan could say a word or move a muscle he was seized in a grip of steel and thrust speechless against the wall.
The master looked on as though uncertain whether to be amused or indignant. While he was deciding Fitzhugh confronted him.
"Mr. Otis," said he, "I want a few minutes' talk with you."
Otis smiled. "I think you've earned an audience with me. Nerve like yours should not go unrewarded." They entered the shadowy room, ostensibly a library.
"What can I do for you?"
"Just a moment." Fitzhugh drew the sliding doors, which led to the hall, together and fastened the clasp, having first deposited his newspaper parcel very carefully upon the floor. He looked around the room, and satisfied they were free from interruption, picked up his parcel and took a seat opposite his host, who watched all these movements with a frown of suspicion and annoyance. When Fitzhugh spoke his voice had the deep, resonant ring it always acquired whenever he was "acting" a part or exercising his oratorical gift. "Mr. Otis," he began, leaning forward in his chair and looking his auditor steadily in the eye, "you are a millionaire, are you not?"
Otis' frown deepened. He glanced impatiently at his watch. "I can spare you but little time this morning," he said, with polite curtness. "I must ask that you state your business as briefly as possible."
"But you are a millionaire?"
"Yes, yes. What of it?"
"And I am a paper. At this moment I could not buy—this newspaper." He took from the library table the morning paper Otis had been reading. It was folded in such wise that a large flashlight photograph immediately caught his eye. He recognized it instantly—recognized the tall, straight figure in the white sweater standing above the blur of faces, arms thrown upwards and outwards, head back, eyes closed. He lived over again that brief moment of glory, and the exaltation he had felt returned twofold. He cast the paper aside and threw himself into the role he was playing with redoubled zest.
"Mr. Otis"—and he pointed two rigid fingers within an inch of his hearer's face—"you must lend me ten thousand dollars!" He seized the newspaper parcel, which had been resting on his knees, and stood up, holding it high above his head. "Mind, I say must!" His voice rang out omniously. His eyes were cold, merciless. "In these hands, Mr. Otis, I hold sufficient dynamite to blow this house and all it contains to ten million atoms. Quick, sr!" he thundered,
A
and made a terrible gesture with the parcel. "Ten thousand dollars, or I hurl it at your feet!"
Although Otis' face had turned deathly pale he had not grown excited or betrayed a sign of fear. He sat quite still, his thin hands resting lightly on the arms of his chair, his

CHICAGO ON VERGE OF ANOTHER RACE RIOT; N.A.A.C.P. INTERVENES
(Special to The Tribune)
NEW YORK, March 24-The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced that telegrams had been sent to Governor Lowden of Illinois and to Mayor Thompson of Chicago, urging that all possible steps be taken to avert threatened race friction in Chicago.
The telegrams report bombing of Negro residences and a determination on the part of colored people to defend their homes and their families.
The text of the telegrams is as follows:
March 16, 1920.
Reports from various sources to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People inform us that residences of Negroes are being bombed in Chicago, and that a feeling of danger bitterness is growing up in consequence among the colored people who are determined to defend their homes and their families.
Mindful of the costly disaster which overtook Chicago in July, 1919, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People urges that every possible step be taken to maintain peace and order before violence again disgraces an American city.
The prohibition amendment to the federal constitution was assailed in supreme court. Monday by Rhode Island as revolutionary and defended by the government as legitimate addition to the nation's basic law over which the court held no jurisdiction. Throngs attended the session.
Gold valued at $1,250,000 is being shipped from England to this country, according to announcement made in New York by Kuhn, Loet! & Co. This
