NO. 51 COLORED ANOTHER WORLD WAR IS PREDICTION OF AN ENGLISH CLERGYMAN (Special to The Tribune.) London, March 15.—"The world today seems to be moving with no uncertain steps toward the abyss of revolution. "Russia has deliberately modeled herself on the French revolution and has repeated on a vaster scale the excesses of the past. "The world is waiting with indescribable apprehension for the appearance of a Russian Napoleon who will complete the sinister parallel." Dr. Hensley Hensen, bishop of Durham, thus pictures a dark and threatening future for the world. Further, he sees the world of today in a psychological mood of indifference which raises no barriers of public opinion against the revolutionary idea or against revolutionary excesses. "England now, as at the time of the French revolution," says Dr. Hensen, "holds a position of detachment. Her insular position still counts for something, her long traditions of a self-government count for much more, the wide diffusion of Christian principles among the people counts for most. "But notwithstanding these advantages, there is a revolutionary spirit abroad which, unless it can be exercised and restrained, will sweep us into irretrievable disaster. "In Ireland an orgy of murder has been proceeding for some time without apparently provoking any genuine horror, either in the Roman Catholic Hierarchy or the religious people that hierarchy controls. It is only when treacherous murder at length provoked the most deplorable reprisals that we heard some half-hearted remarks. "The deadness of the public conscience in the race of extreme and evident weakness is the most disquieting feature of the times." MINISTER ADVOCATES RELEASE OF EUGENE DEBS FROM PRISON Boston, March 17.—"If Milton and Shelley were alive today they would likely be in Atlanta prison with Eugene Debs," declared Rev. D. T. W. Holmes, of Waltham, at a meeting of Baptist ministers. Dr. Holmes was one of several who said that Eugene Debs should be liberated and that he was being made to suffer for conscience's sake. "There is an amazing disregard of conscience in democracy today," asserted Prof. Woodman Bradbury of Newton Theological Institute. --- "This government suppresses too much. We need an emancipated conscience, but we're more likely to get it from Lincoln than from Harding. "The war has ceased, yet wartime legislation is still in force. There is oligarchy all about us in the guise of democracy. We are not showing democracy in keeping Debs in jail." Mr. Advertiser The Tribune is read by practically every Colored family in Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, and Tempe. It also has a wide circulation throughout the State of Arizona as well as in New Mexico, southwest Texas and other states. Do You Want This Trade? (Special to The Tribune) New York, March 17.—Replying to his wife's suit for $75 per week alimony. Marcus Garvey declares that his income will not permit such an outlay. His wife is in good health, he avers, and able to take care of herself, adding that she attends the theaters several times during the week or at will. We regret that Garvey, the man who claims to have four million Negroes in his organization, Garvey the man who claims to have raised two million dollars in the last three years, Garvey, the man who is called to save the Negroes of the entire world, finds himself unable to pay his wife $75 a week alimony! There are many many Colored men who can do that, although they have not the magical power claimed by Garvey.—Ed. REAL CAUSE OF RIOT IN SPRINGFIELD, OHIO (By the Associated Negro Press) Springfilled, Ohio, March 17.—The attempt of a drunken policeman to maltreat a Negro who did not get out of his way quick enough, when ordered to step off the sidewalk by the officer, caused the death of the policeman and about eneighteen other black and white citizens last Friday night. Rioting continued through the night but quiet was restored in the early morning hours after the militia had been called to the scenes of strife and the streets fortified with machine guns. It was in the early evening time when the fighting began. No one seems to have a clear idea of how the trouble started. It was confined wholly in the Negro district, where it began, and is believed to have had its origin in a series of minor clashes that have occurred between police officers and alleged rowdy Negroes during the past few weeks. The killing of the policeman and the culmination of these smaller fights. Before the Friday night clash had continued far large crowds of whites joined the officers called to the Negro district to quell the rioting. The Negroes, regarding the invasion of the district as an effort to punish them for the results of the riots of two years ago, resisted arrest and calmly engaged the police and their allies in the sanguinary street battle which lasted through the entire night. Several attempts to dynamite homes of the Negroes were frustrated by them. One white man discovered in the act of placing a bomb near the residence of a Negro was roughly handled but was rescued by the police after a desperate battle in the course of which several combatants were severely wounded and as many more killed. The police department declare that the origin of the trouble is to be traced to an attempted rape on a young white girl by a Negro several days ago. This is stoutly denied by Negro citizens of all classes who declare that the police have been assidiously seeking to create trouble in the Negro district for political reasons. There has been no serious recurrence of the rioting since order was restored by the National Guard last Saturday morning. The public resorts ordered closed by Mayor Wescott are in the majority of cases, still shut. There is no general fear that the rioting will be resumed. DUNBAR CLUB MEETING The Dunbar Club will meet Thursday afternoon, March 24, with Mrs M. J. Maddox, 910 East Jefferson street. PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, MARCH 19, 1921 (Special to The Tribune) Boston, March 17.—"Blue law legislation is wrong in theory and fatal in practice," declares Rev. J. L. J. Corrigan, S. J., professor of social ethics at Boston college. "These 'blue law' proposials," says Father Carrigan, "remind us of Pilgrim days. If we may judge from the evil results of such laws in the early days as witnessed to by no less an authority than Governor Bradford himself, nothing of good, but on the contrary, much of harm may be expected if such laws are written again upon the statute books. "History is against the hopes and theories of the Lord's Day legislators. "The Lord's Day leaguers might profitably read early Pilgram history to learn how futile it is to try to legislate people into moral living. "The intolerable affrontery and assumed superiority of these latter-day advocates of Puritanic observance is in line with dozens of other invasions of personal liberty of late, where a determined and well-organized minority have imposed their will upon a majority, hus understanding and subverting the very fundamentals of democratic government and imperiling American freedom itself. Fanatical minorities are always dangerous, but never more so than when they fancy that they are doing the will of the Lord. "It is a fact of human history and experience, explain it how you please, that extremes provoke extremes. The rule is inevitable. When restraints become intolerable, reaction, like the swing of a pendulum, sets in. The real danger from such restrictive and repressive legislation, apart from its injustice, is the fact that it gives rise to contempt for all law. "When there are upon the statute books measures which are not sustained by popular sentiment and public opinion, all law loses respect and comes into contempt. It is the same when laws are not enforced save to the extent of causing irritation and resentment, law suffers in the respect of the community and the result is a reaction of crime. "Many keen students of our social problems think that the present crime wave in the country is due, in large measure, to this very defect in the Volstead prohibition law. Sabbatharian Sunday regulations would certainly provoke violent disobedience and cynical disregard for the law. It would be fanatical idiocy to enact them. "If the ministry of our Sabbatarian clergy was broken down, a little soul searching will probably reveal that the true cause of the defection among their flocks is that the preaching of religion and the charity of Christ have been supplanted in their pulpits by social uplift and civic harangues." Last Year Was Banner Year for Savings Banks In United States, Avers New York, March 17.—Savings banks' deposits throughout the United States in 1920 eclipsed all previous records. Statistics made public here tonight by the savings banks' association of the State of New York showed that deposits in the 635 savings institutions January 1, last, totaled $5,535,389,904, an increase of 9.38 per cent over the previous banner year, 1919. The New England states showed an increase of 7.53 per cent. Deposits in the 198 institutions in the Eastern States January 1 amounted to $3,186,580,900, an increase of 10.78 per cent. The twenty-one mutual savings banks in the Middle Western States reported an increase in deposits of $10,851,938. In the Pacific Coast States the increase for the year was 6.99 per cent. The association did not give detailed figures for the Southern States. GOOD BEHAVIOR IS POPULAR CLUBMAN PRES. D. B. KING ATTRIBUTE GOOD ARRESTED CHARGED OF LIBERIA GUEST BASEBALL PLAYER WITH SERIOUS CRIME WALDORF ASTORIA Organized base ball bars Negro players. By doing so it has lost some of the finest athletes the game has ever known, but this color line is drawn rigidly. Not many years ago, one club tried to play a negro under the representation that he was a Cuban, and he was dropped when the decetl was discovered. He did not sue, representing himself as being deprived of a livelihood, yet his case would have been much clearer than would be one brought by a player dropped for theft or dishonesty. It seems to me that the fear of being sued is extended only to cases of men who are valuable to the teams. Speaking of Negro players, there is one man who is an honor to base ball and his race. There may be many more, but Rube Foster, the head of his Glants, is to my way of thinking one of the great managers and leaders of base ball. He has a team which would rank well with any major league club, and one which has played in more different cities and towns than any other club in the world. Rube makes his players understand rules of conduct. "We've got to behave ourselves much better than a white team would, he tells them. No swearing or rowdyism goes on this ball club." He enforces that rule. His team are hard fighters, but clean and good natured. They laugh where white teams would be rowing with the umpire. They are courteous and good sportmen. He has taken his club on tour after tour of the South, played before big crowds composed largely of whites, and never has had trouble. And any man who can take a Negro team through the South and win and hold the respect of all classes is a real manager. Besides that Rube is doing something for his race, as well as for base ball, and the conduct of his players both on and off the field is a lesson for many white teams. COLUMBUS, N. M. By MRS. E. M. A. Fears Sunday services at the A. M. E. church were excellent and the pastor, Rev. P. M. Rickman was at his best. He delivered two able sermons and the people received his message gladly Services at Fear's Missionary Institution were held from 3 to 5 p. m. as usual. The lesson topic was: "Fishing and Catching Men." Luke 5: I-II. The pastor, Rev. Jno. D. Fears admonished us to follow Christ, save others and be saved. Mt. Bethel Baptist Church gained strength by administering the Lord's Supper. Several expressed their worthiness and remBRances of the death and suffering of Our Blessed Saviour, which should be done often. The pastor is walking carefully. That shoe committee operated on his feet. The people delight to read the Phoenix Tribune because it is the Great Southwestern Informer to all who support and appreciate Race enterprise. The 24th Infantry stationed here, is the most loyal group of men to be found anywhere. They are just regular fellows, but wonderfully human, patriotic and race-loving. What's the matter with the 24th Infantry? They are ALL Right Who's ALL Right? The Twenty Fourth, of course. WATCHMAN ATTEMPTS ASSAULT ON DEFENSELESS RACE WOMAN (By The Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, March 18.—Mrs. Jennie Antazek, a young matron and the mother of two children, caused the arrest of Roy White, a Negro watchman employed at the Haymarket Theatre, last Wednesday afternoon, charging that the man had attempted to assault her. White is detained at the Desplaines police station and will be tried for the offense on March 18. (Special to The Tribune.) Toledo, O., March 17.—David A. Barnett, secretary and general manager of the Collyer-Barnett Lumber Company, clubman and church worker, this afternoon was indicted by the Lucas county grand jury on a charge of having contributed to the delinquency of school girls varying from 5 to 9 years old. He was released on bond of $10,000 and immediately rearrested on a warrant reciting the same charges, but issued in the juvenile court, and held for another $10,000 bail. Bond in each instance was given by his aged father. SALVATION ARMY IS A PUBLIC SERVANT How the Salvation Army administered to the allied armies at the front during the great World War is a closed chapter in the history of the accomplishments of this organization, in so far as the Army is concerned. But another page is being written in the historical achievements of these great "servants of all." It is a service being rendered right here in Arizona and it is because of work of this nature that the Salvation Army is making its appeal to Arizonaans for its 1921 state quota. A sum of $25,400 is being asked to finance the work of the organization in all its phases for the present year. At this time the Salvation Army is administering to another army, but of a distinctively different type. It is now the army of the unemployed now deriving the benefits of Salvation Army service. Hundreds have been and now are being cared for. This work is exclusive of the regular Army program. Hundreds of poor families about the state are annually provided for, as well as delinquent boys and girls and wayward families. But care of the unemployed in such large numbers as is now being provided is classified under the heading of "special service." It is, in brief, work that requires large expenditures of money not provided for in the annual budget. Leavenworth Mayor Removed for Failure to Enforce Prohibition (Special to The Tribune) Topeka, Kan., March 15.—John C. Davls, mayor of Leavenworth, was suspended from office today by order of the supreme court pending final determination of the ousting proceedings against him. Davis is charged by Richard J. Hopkins, attorney general, with failure to enforce the liquor and gambling laws in Leavenworth. Evanston, Ill., March 18.—The Colored people of this city are to have a Community Home. Plans for the building are completed and provide for a community store, offices and a lodge hall. Twenty-two Colored men have contributed $100 each and the three-story structure will be erected before early summer, according to the present program: Forrest E. White and William H. Gill are the sponsors of the idea. RACE PROBLEM DISCUSSED BY BOSTON EDUCATOR Bangor, Maine, March 17.—Dr. David S. Klugh of Boston was the principal speaker at the big mass meeting held here on February 20 in the City Hall. Rev. Klugh discussed the "Race Problem" and was lustily applauded by the large audience present. The meeting was held under the auspices of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. (Special to The Tribune) New York, March 17.—Charles D. B. King, president of the Republic of Liberia, in West Africa, arrived here today aboard the steamer Panhandle State, and will leave soon for Washington to discuss a loan of $5,000,000 to his republic, it was announced by Edward T. Merrill. Liberian consul here. The loan is needed to further industrial development in Liberia Merill said. President King in the uniform of his office, wearing a bird of paradise plume in his hat, went to the Waldorf Astoria, where he will occupy the presidential suite used by King Albert and Queen Elizabeth of Belgium. The occupancy of the Royal Suite of rooms at the Waldorf-Astoria, New York, by President King of Liberia, emphasizes the fact, that our class, or condition, rather than color generally causes the ostracision or segregation in some sections of America. President King is decidedly Colored. Not even a "High Brown" so to speak. Yet last year he was guest of, and wined and dined in, The Sinton, Cincinnati's Premier Hostelry. Yes, our own Sinton, that makes a specialty of sending us to the freight elevator, if we journey there to attend meetings or are called on business to see a guest But we can't all be Presidents, Kings or Queens. Who knows, some day even Colored American Citizens here may here be recipients of rights accorded by the Constitution, and courtesies due reputable people throughout the realms of civilization—Ed. French Village Stirred By Prophecv of Christ's Rebirth in France (Special to The Tribune.) Paris, March 17.—The prophecy of a young Jewish girl named Wolff that Jesus Christ will be "reborn" again before the end of the present year in the little village of Montmorency, near Paris, has suddenly aroused the greatest interest among religious workers all over France. Miss Wolff, who comes from an excellent family, recently announced that the word of Christ's rebirth came to her in a divine vision. "One night while I slept I suddenly saw a great dazzling light and heard beautiful music," she recounts. "Then a moment later an angel appeared through the light and spoke to me just as plainly as my mother talks to me every day. The angel said: "The Lord Savior, Jesus Christ, will be reborn near the end of this year in a Jewish family in the village of Montmorency, and will be martyred behind the Church of Saint Severin, which will afterward be sanctified. Go and tell the world." The angel then disappeared, Miss Wolff declares. She awoke and ran to tell her parents. Since that night she has obeyed the heavenly injunction and has addressed religious meetings all over Paris, gaining many converts to the believer that Christ is about to return to earth. "If anyone had told me such a story a year ago I would have laughed." she says, "but the church will show that I am really inspired by God." The "revelation" naturally has caused great excitement in Montmorency, where there are about forty Jewish families. LARGEST SCHOOL BUILDING IN NORTH CAROLINA BURNED (By The Associated Negro Press.) Spindale, N. C., March 17.—Western Union Academy was destroyed by fire last Wednesday night. The main building was a total loss and considerable damage was done the girl's dormitory. This school is one of the largest educational institutions for Negroes in the State. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year OIL FIELDS OIL LANDS VALUED AT $16,000,000 HELD BY COLORED GIRL (Special to The Tribune) New Orleans, La., March 17.—Sixteen million dollars' worth of oil land is a lot of property for most anyone to acquire in a lifetime. Especially is this true when the owner is a Negro girl who a few years ago was trotting unconcernedly about the dusty roads on the outskirts of New Orleans. However, two courts, the district court of Claibourne parish, Louisiana, and the United States District Court for the western district of Louisiana, have declared Lillie Taylor, Negro girl of 23 years, be the owner of about 200 acres of the richest oil lands in Claibourne parish on which twelve producing wells have been sunk. The property has been leased to the Gulf Refining Company, which now operates the holdings, and is valued at about $16,000,000. Nevertheless there is a cloud on the title of Lillie Taylor. Several persons including her natural mother, Lona McGee, one George West, who claims through another line of title, and also the State of Louisiana now seek recognition of their right. the property. The whole matter which has been in the courts for several years under consideration by the supreme court of Louisiana. Decision is expected this month. AMERICAN ARRESTED IN CHINA CHARGED WITH EMBEZZLEMENT (Special to The Tribune) (Special to The Tribune) Shanghai, China, March 17.—Earl Rose, son of the noted former Mayor Rose of Milwaukee, is charged with embezzlement of stock valued at approximately $5,000 in a warrant issued for his arrest in the American federal court of China. The stock was in Sonn Brothers Company and was entrusted to Rose as counsel for the company, it was alleged. Rose is reported to have disappeared and it is rumored he has gone to Japan, where he would not be extraditable except through inetnational courtesy. It is alleged that Rose borrowed $7,000 on the stock. Judge Charles Lobingier of the American court for China has disbarred Rose from practice on the strength of testimony given by Sterling Sessenden, dean of the Shanghai bar and Rose's former partner. Rose has been prominent and popular as a sportsman in Shanghai. He arrived here in 1915 as clerk of the American court and disbursing officer for China for the American government. He joined the bar in 1917. His wife and five children sailed for the United States Saturday aboard the steamer Fushimi Maru. The next time Mr. Coolidge goes to Atlanta we sincerely hope he will keep his mouth shut.

When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assuice of fair and courteous treatment.

Seeing the President of the United States of America is a privilege, any way you take it. It arouses varied emotions in any red blooded individual. It stirs up the wells of patriotism, and makes one say with Daniel Webster, "Thank God I am an American." For a long, long time the President has been a man of mystery. Not only was he inaccessible to the leaders of the party that placed him in power, the great gates of the great iron fence that surrounds the White House were kept closed to visitors. To millions the President was a mere creature of the imagination, and that goes, also, for thousands who live in Washington. On the fourth day of March, when the country editor from Ohio, Warren G. Harding, became President, the White House began to function in tangible form. The first "big idea," to be acted upon was to "open wide the gates." That was an executive decree, but it was more; it was American and showed conclusively and effectively that things are different. It was like opening up the flood gates, and it has had an electrical effect on the populace. The people feel "nearer to the government." When Mr. Wilson and Mr. Harding rode along Pennsylvania avenue, on their way to the Capitol, there was afforded an unusual opportunity for study in contrast. As you looked at Wilson, you thought of icicles; as you looked at Harding, you thought of flowers. When, in the midst of 100,000 people, Warren G. Harding took the oath that made him the head of the government, and you listened to his economically efficient and patriotically humane inaugural address, there was a spirit of just pride and enthusiasm. President Harding was saying the things as we ourselves would say them, and he was putting his thoughts in everyday language, with a delivery of eloquence and a bearing of becoming dignity. When President Harding, with Mrs. Harding, returned to take control of the destiny of the White House as well as the destiny of the nation for the next four years, and as they rode along the historically famous avenue, surrounded by troops of cavalry, no real American could look at the man without feeling the conviction that there are none so high, if undeserving, who may escape justice; and there are none so low, if deserving, who will be denied it. You get the same impression on a visit to the White House. It was my privilege to have this experience. In his private office, as President of the United States, Mr. Harding displays no affectation or haughtiness. I have seen him as editor in his newspaper office in Marion, Ohio; I have seen him as Lieutenant Governor of Ohio; as United State Senator from Ohio, and as President, and from my human viewpoint there has been no change in the spirit of the man. He has grown in intensity of purpose, keeping progress, it seems, with his responsibilities; and he has grown becomingly in presidential dignity, but he is yet very human and very American. On this presentation of fact we rest our faith in the future. Notwithstanding the universal slump in business, Phoenix is still the most prosperous city of its size in the great Southwest. Take a stroll through the business section of the city any day in the week and note the long line of automobiles parked in every available parking place. We are of the opinion that the ownership of an automobile is a sign of affluence. All other things being equal, Phoenix is the home of a large number of prosperous American citizens. Paupers do not ride in automobiles—they could not if they felt like it, for the gasoline consumption alone would be more than they could pay for, to say nothing of the repairs and other incidental expenses with which every automobile owner is more or less familiar. News of the depression in the East has done us more injury than anything with which we have had to contend. Those who have money, knowing what the conditions are in the East, ceased spending so as to be ready for the crash when it came. In this they made a mistake, for to cease buying those things you need cannot help the situation, but will hasten the very thing you wish to avoid. If all citizens of the valley will continue to buy, wisely and judiciously, the wheels of industry will turn, and when the wheels of industry turn as they should, conditions will be normal. We read a story of a man who set out to make himself one hundred per cent efficient. At first, everything went along nicely, until one day he began to worry about something he thought would happen. Immediately he became less efficient, and this fact, coupled with the other, caused more worry, and finally he became discouraged and could not half perform his usual duties. The writer stated that when this man began to worry, he killed whatever chances there were for him to become the man he desired to be. Likewise today, the people in this section of the country who would like to see conditions restored to normal are themselves delaying the return of former conditions by their own actions. Confidence must first be restored before we can go back to normalcy. Each individual should search himself and try to locate the fault that lies within. Should you find that you are in some way hindering the progress of the community, line up on the right side and give the wheels of industry a push. What affects one, affects all. If you are imbued with the spirit of optimism, pass it on to your neighbor. PAGE TWO Address all Communications to the PHOENIX TRIBUNE P. O.

Colored people in the big cities have been called upon to wrestle with its exactions and they have come out of the struggle much the worse for bettering and life-racking wear. Suggestions for a remedy have come fast and furious. Something of a solution presents itself in the organization of realty companies in New York City, Chicago, Philadelphia and other large cities with the fixed purpose of providing their increasing Colored populations with adequate housing conditions. Still, the relief in this respect is not substantial. The shoe continues to pinch. Neither has the outright purchasing of residential property by individuals done very much to relieve the high rent pressure. "The Exodus" was sudden, overwhelming, convincing. It squeezed the good nature out of communities that hitherto were not unkindly disposed toward our race. The results were that rents and sour nature went skyward and sullenly refuse to budge from the heights. But, incidentally, a remedy of some sort must be offered in the hope that this really heavy burden may be lifted from the economic shoulders of the race in the large cities. More, the social preconceptions of many places are being strained to the breaking point, and untoward friction has assumed sinister aspects as a resultant. Hence, the more immediate need for a remedy that will work. The purchasing of suburban sites and the erection thereon of reasonably priced and comfortable homes with pleasant surroundings might help to settle the difficulty. Complaint is various and vexing of the evil effects of crowded living conditions prevailing in the large cities among the Colored elements. This would be a step this side of "back-to-the-farm" pleas, and yet would be close enough to the healthier cultural influences of large city life to make life bearable to the fellow, amongst us, who has a deep-rooted aversion to living in the woods. Anyhow, a plan like the one we are offering would reduce rents because it would reduce the demand for houses for our people in the congested districts of the big cities. Mrs. B. Brown of 900 Fifteenth st. is visiting her mother and father Mr. and Mrs. Williams of Bisbee. Mrs. Lelia Harris of Fort Hauchuca arrived in Douglas last week and will spend several days visiting her mother Mrs. E. Hopkins of 939 Seventeenth street. The Sunday school at the C. M. E. church on last Sunday was well attended. Rev. A. C. Caldwell, Conference Evangelist, delivered the 11 o'clock sermon and the Holy Spirit descended upon all the congregation. At 3:30 the Rev. S. E. Newell, pastor of the Baptist church preached a strong sermon and all enjoyed his discourse. At 7:30 the Evangelist again carried us to the mountain tops. The attendance at all services was unusually large and the collection above the average. The Missionary Society with Mrs. W. S. Hunt as president is progressing nicely. The fight between "Lighting" Davis and "Battling" Ortega has been postponed indefinitely. Mrs. L. B. Weatherley has recovered from her sick spell and returned to her home on the ranch, six miles from Pirtleville. Members and friends who on last Sunday attended services at the Baptist church heard a powerful sermon that was preached by Rev. Edward Jones. He selected for his subject the following words: "Get Acquainted With God." He handled his subject intelligently and all were pleased with his remarks. Attendance at the Sunday school was large as usual and Mrs. Edward Jones took charge of the adult Lible class. Mrs. Edward Jones together with her daughter and children will leave soon for a brief visit with friends in Phoenix. The bible reading was well attended last week at the home of Mrs. J. Hayes. The meeting was held at this home due to the illness of Mrs. King where the meetings were previously held. Mrs. Carr, mother of Mrs. Albert Smith, is on the sick list this week. The A. M. E. church is moving along nicely with Rev. E. Ramsey as pastor. The A. M. E. choir is noted for its wonderful voices and their singing is always a feature of the services. You miss a treat if you have failed to attend services at this church. They invite you to come and worship with them.

Washington, March 17.—Amacostia, the historic home of Frederick Douglass, is now the property of the Colored people of the United States. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, president of the Frederick Douglass Memorial and Historical Association, has just announced that the mortgage against the building and land has been lifted by her society. Hallie Q. Brown, Meta Pelham, Nettie L. Napier, Laura Brown, Alice Dunbar-Nelson, Dr. Mary Waring, Mary McLeod Bethune, Elizabeth Carter and Nannie H. Burroughs are among the prominent women who helped to bring the campaign for the mortgage fund to a successful issue. If there was as much wisdom in William H. Taft's advice as there is weight to his body he would be a very wise man. DOUGLAS CHURCH DIRECTORY Corner Second street and Jefferson. T. J. Sanford, pastor. Residence, 113 South Second street.

PRAISED BY NEW YORK GLOBE IN STRONG EDITORIAL The New York Globe, on Tuesday, March 8th, in an editorial headed “A Signpost for Whites,” pointed out the remarkable work being done by the National Association for the Advance- mentof Colored People. The editorial states: “The National Association for the Advancementof Colored People could be studied with profit by those who believe in lynch ing and Jim Crow methods. It was founded in 1909. The Crisis for March contains its report for 1920, which reveals a sufficient activity to make one thoughtful. The association now has 88,000 members, and hopes for 250,000. Its officers last year traveled 100,000 miles and the rather slender purse of the organization—$47,000—defrayed the expenses of various battles for a better treatment of Negroes. Representatives of the asso- ciation helped to kill twelve out of thirteen anti-intermarriage bills in state legislatures. They checked the course of twenty discriminating measures in congress, They initiated legislation giving the Negro a securer footing in law courts, successfully tought dozens of cases and especially unjust convictions, dissemi- nated literature on lynching, sponsored the Negro elector, and secured school and theatre privileges in various parts of the country, The association claims credit for calling attention to abuses in Hayti. It established a news bureau at its New York headquarters. This is all evidence that needs notice. Perhaps it needs interpretation, too. ‘It shows a growth of the body of educated, thoughtful and determined Negroes. These are organizing their race in America. They have already become an effective force’ in politics, in the courtroom, and—though this phase has not been touched upon—in industry. The promise of the future is plain. We shall continue to educate the Negro, or he will rather continue increasingly to educate himself. The body of intelligent and self-respecting Colored people will continue to grow larger. Discrimination or lawless force will bring about a resistance which will be more difficult to cope with as it grows mere and more and informed and organized. Injustice or violence will, in fact, be the one thing eapable of keeping the Negro at his worst, and of making him for the South the danger it fears he will become. Certain parts of the country may have been able to deal with the Negro in the past outside of justice and courtesy. They will now find mob law and unconstitutional law duller and weaker weapons. Certain traditions of treatment of Negroes must pass with the passing of the ignorance and helplessness of the black race.” (Special to The Tribune.)

What has been accomplished in that time very largely speaks for itself, Grabbing an idea and shoot- ing it out into an untried. field, through the co-operation of editors and the good will of readers, The Associated Negro Press has reached a standard of appreciation that is indeed enviable. ‘There is one primary cause of this, which we appreciate fully, and that is the promoters have in no. sense sought to exploit themselves, or to take advantage of the wide possibili- ties of the service. The progress of the newspapers and the welfare of the people have been the twin guid- ing stars to which we have hitched our wagon. It is our firm beliet that we are now entering upon a new and greater era. If we have been faithful to the cause in the past, we promise to be no less so in the future, for certainly two years of untiring effort have given us a clearer vision of what is before us. We’ look to the future. May the press of the country grow in Power and usefulness more and more each day. THE “ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS. Claude A. Barnett, Director.

M ae wees Wesiesee Oh panes THE ROMANCE OF WORDS “CAUCUS.” 4 Ay His: thoronatay <Amestins word, meaning @ secret conference or meeting of the leaders of a politieal party, 1s frequently encountered in re- ports of the activities of con- gress or in connection with the work carried on during the time Which immediately precedes presidential elections. More- over, “caucus” owes {ts origin to one of the earliest of Amerl- can politicians, Henry Adams, who was very prominent in colonial political circles during the early part of the Bighteenth century. Being desirous of controlling certain offices and of securing the appointment of men who were friendly to his interests, Adams organized a club com- posed for the most part of sea captains, shipwrights and other persons connected with mercan- tile interests, Partly to conceal the real nature of the club and partly because of the nautical atmosphere which surrounded it, the organization was known as the “Caulkers’ club.” Before long, rumors of its activities be- gan to seep out and, when fa- vyorable appointments were named, people commenced to say, “That was settled by the Caulkers.” As time passed the name of the club took on a more phonetic spelling and the new word, “caucus” was coined.
