"WE ORIGINATE --- OTHERS IMITATE" Phoenix Tribune key to Happiness ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER In 10,000 Homes RACE RIOT IN TULSA GENERAL WOOD SAYS RESULTED IN DEATH FILIPINOS NOT READY OF OVER 200 WHITES FOR SELF GOVERNMENT VOL. IV. No 13. (By The Associated Negro Press) Tulsa, Okla., June 16.—The Tulsa riot was wilfully planned. An excuse for starting the horror was given by a foolish Negro lad and a silly, irresponsible white girl. Result: More than 200 whites killed and wounded while the casualties among the Negroes amounted to about 60 people, all told. Property losses were confined wholly to "Little Africa" and amount to more than $2,000,000. Completion of an $85,000 church was the straw which broke the camel's back of prejudice and made ready for the consumption of a plot that can be regarded the most diabolically flendish in the history of the United States. To this chapter of horrors can be added the outspoken declaration to lynch J. B. Stratford and Jas. Smitherman, two of the more prominent Negro business men of Tulsa, should they be so bold as to show their faces in our midst again. Stradford and Smitherman were among the few leaders who managed to escape the clutches of the mob Even the white clergy were among those who gave sanction to the horrible program of wholesale destruction of property and attempted slaughter of men whose only crime was a determined effort to prosper and live decently. This statement is given force and color by the facts that the business section and the better residential district in "Little Africa" were the first places to feel the forked tongue of the torch. "Had there been no effort to lift "Little Africa" out of the slimy conditions of a slum district there would have been no riot," declared an intelligent Negro to the Associated Negro Press representative. Bishop Mouzen of the Methodist church, South, the Rev. C. V. Kerr of the First Presbyterian church and the Rev. Harry G. Cooke of the Centenary M. E. church, last Sunday, declared from the pulpits, that the colored people were wholly responsible for the horrors of the riot. Bishop Mouzen went so far as to announce that William B. DuBois' recent visit and talk to Tulsa Negroes was one of the contributing causes of the riot. He averred that the Negro must not persume to compete with the white men nor seek to rise out of the economic and social situation in which the whites are determined to keep him. A violation of this edict was sure to visit on the Negro the reprisals of race riots whenever it occurred. Cooke and Kerr were no less outspoken in their denunciations of the Tulsa Negro's aspirations to approach the social and economic levels of the Tulsa whites. Smitherman's whereabouts have not been discovered up to this date. Stratford, however, was located in Dependencé Kansas, and an effort to extradite him was frustrated by his son J. F. Stradford, a Chicago lawyer, who succeeded in getting his father out of the hands of the Kansas authorities through the process of a Habeas Corpus proceedings. The elder Stradford has not been located. Should either of these men be brought to Tulsa a lynching bee would surely be added to the awful list of horrors that have already visited the benighted place. ```markdown ``` In the meantime there is a group of white citizens who are desirous that restitution be provided for the Negroes by rebuilding and replacing their personal losses at whatever cost. While this offer appears to be bona fide it seems to be qualified by presenting a plan which will move the colored people from the occupancy of the district that was so wantonly destroyed. The answer of the colored people to this plan has not yet been given. It is not thought they will be given much choice in the matter. The Queen Contest Again the queen contest has been postponed, but this time it will surely take place. It happens on June 30th at the A. M. E. church. Get ready to attend this affair. Nothing like it has ever been given in Phoenix. Tickets for the contest are now being sold by the contestants and their friends. Get yours and help the lady (By The Associated Negro Press) Manila, June 16.—There will be no immediate independence for the Philippine Islands if the policy of the Harding administration depeneds on the report of the Woods-Forbes mission. That much may be said to have been settled now. What remains is the delicate task of establishing conditions and improving the internal conditions of the islands, while at the same time holding the loyalty and cooperation of the Filipinos. Then comes the bigger job of co-ordinating the military, naval and commercial policy of the United States in the Orient. That the investigation has proven already that there is no stable government in the sense contemplated by congress as being prerequisite to giving the Filipinos complete government, was indicated clearly by Gen. Wood and U. Cameron Forbes in their talks to members of the Columbian club, composed of Filipino graduates of the American universities. FRENCH OFFICIAL LOUD IN HIS PRAISE OF COLORED TROOPS (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, June 16.—An official of the French government now in the United States has sent to Dr. Emmett J. Scott, former special assistant to Secretary of War, the following statement which he has just received from Paris: "Before the Colored Senegalese troops left the Rhine district for Asia Minor, on May 29th, 1920, one year ago, General Degoutte, one of the most famous French leaders of the Great War, commander in chief of the French forces in the Rhine Provinces, issued the following message: "The Senegalese Brigade leaves the French Army of the Rhine, called forth to an important mission on a point of exterior operation. I regret to see the departure of these elite soldiers; I was often able to appreciate their bravery, at first in our colonies, later during the war "Always and everywhere, the Senegalese have shown themselves worthy of their glorious fame: the conquest and pacification of the African middle zone, of Madagascar and Morocco, Dixmude, the Dardanelles, the Somme, the Aisne, Verdun and the Avre, are their titles of heroism." "Through the cordiality, the simplicity, the kindness, which they have proved in dealing with the populations of the occupied district.. they have obtained the sympathy of all those who approached them. We have testimonies which make it plain." The odious propaganda against everything which is French does not leave them. They can proudly oppose the cleanliness of their lives, the high sentiment of their duties as citizens, and as soldiers, their glorious past, tothe perfidious libels on people who forget too early the horrors of which they have become guilty in Africa as well as in France and in Belgium. "I salute their flag, quite new but already bright with glory." American Woodmen To Hold Convention At Denver in August Denver, Colo., June 16.— The Supreme Camp of the American Woodmen will hold its Fifth Quadrennial Convention at Denever, Colo., from August 8th to 15th, 1921. This organization is perhaps the largest purely fraternal insurance company among Negroes, its assets totaling near the $1,000,000 mark, and its membership being nearly 100,000 individuals distributed over the entire country. Tourists rates of one and one-third the one-way fare for the round trip will prevail from all parts of the country, and it is expected that the convention will be largely attended. JEWS IN ROUMANIA BEING DRIVEN OUT BY OTHER CITTENS (By The Associated Negro Press) New York, June 16.—Thousands of Jewish refugees, driven from their homes in the Ukraine and parts of White Russia, are living under wretched conditions in Poland and Roumania, says Superior Judge Hugo Pam, of Chicago, who returned from a four months' tour of investigation last week. Poland, Roumania, Lithuania, Austrit and Hungary are some of the countries he visited in behalf of the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigration Society of America. "The law limiting immigration to 3 per cent was passed by congress on misinformation," the judge said. "If only in operation for 12 months it will work great hardship among the refugees, Poland and Roumania are overcrowded and these people are confronted by the problem of where to go. They were driven from their homes in the Ukraine and parts of White Russia by pillage, robbery and massacres, at the hands of small bands of marauders. The condition of those who found temporary refuge in Poland is very pitiful. Sometimes 14 to 20 persons were found living in a single room. They are taken advantage of by unscrupulous men. Animals are valued more. Nine-five per cent of these people would make good citizens and live up to the highest standards of Americanism, if they were allowed to come here." Tulsa Homes to be Rebuilt by Caucasians If Plan Is Adopted Tulsa, Okla., June 16.—Homes for thousands of Negroes made destitute by the race rioting here last week will be rebuilt by Tulsa business men, but a general plan of reconstruction was still being sought by members of the citizens' committee of welfare named for that purpose. The Negroes will profit in one respect, for the businesses interests of the city are determined that a better and more sanitary district will be erected. Some prominent men object to rearing a new Negro settlement on the ashes of be bought in the northern section of the city weher homes could be built with a view to city planning. Judge L. J. Martin, chairman of the committee, declared his belief that 1,000 Tulsa men should volunteer each to build a Negro home. He said it would require not more than $1,000 for a home. The relief work among the colored people has bee n thoroughly organized and most of the refugees have left the detention camp at the air grounds. BIG ATLANTA FIRE CAUSES DAMAGE TO HOMES OF NEGROES (By The Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., June 16.—Fire which started from some undetermined cause, did considerable damage to four buildings occupied by Negroes on West North avenue shortly after midnight Sunday night. The blaze started in a building at 347 West North avenue, owned by David Franklin, colored, and occupied by John McCoy, colored, as a store. The building was practically destroyed. Sparks from the burning building ignited the dwellings of Bennie Carroll, colored, 349 West North avenue; Emma Terrell, at 351 West North avenue, and Jessie Jackson. at 339 West North avenue. The building at 351 West North avenue was only slightly damaged, while the roofs were burned off of both the other houses. Flames from the burning building lit up the sky and caused a large crowd to gather from all parts of the city. Mr. Rodgers Returns G. S. Rodgers returned this week from Texas, where he was called several weeks ago on account of the death of his father, Prof. M. M. Rodgers. PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1921. PETERSON-HUDSON JUNE WEDDING IS BEAUTIFUL AFFAIR One of the most attractive of June weddings took place Wednesday evening, 8:30 o'clock at the A. M. E. church when Miss Lois Peterson, daughter of Mrs. Ben Peterson, became the bride of Maurice Hudson. The church is charmingly adapted for affairs of this kind and was given additional charm in the artistic arrangements. A color scheme of pink and green was beautifully carried out in the decorations and the spacious auditorium was filled to capacity with invited guests. The music was delightful. The wedding march was played by Miss Cora Smith, a classmate of the bride, and as the notes announced the approach of the bridal party, the way was led by several small girls in crisp organdie frocks who marked the way with satin streamers. The flower girls were Dorothy Jones and Annie Crump, while little Mildred Jones was the train bearer. Brides maids were Misses Blanch Hester and Helen Brown, who looked very pretty in pink crepe de chine gowns. Miss Helen Peterson, sister of the bride, was maid of honor and was becoming attired in a crisp gown of pink crepe dechine. Mr. Harold Carriger was the best man and was immaculate in full dress. Billy Peterson, the bride's brother, was ringer bearer and carried the wedding ring on a dainty pillow of white satin with violet streamers attached. Miss Peterson the bride, who was given away by her brother-in-law, Mr. Belue, was lovely in white crepe de chene. Her tulle veil was held with orange blossoms and she carried a shower bouquet of white carnations. The groom wore the conventional black. Mrs.I. F. Silvers sang, "Perfect Day" during the service, which was read by Rev. T. J. Sandfro, pastor of the A. M. E. church. After the ceremony a reception for the newly weds was held at the home of the groom's sister, Mrs. Ethel Lewis in South Montezuma street. Dainty refreshments were served and several tables were piled high with presents given the couple. Mr. Forest Burney presided at the piano and furnished music during the reception. The color scheme of pink and green was artistically carried out in the decorations at the Lewis home. Miss Peterson is a native daughter of Arizona and belongs to a pioneer family. Her father, Ben Peterson was one of the early settlers in Phoenix and his friends are legion. She was a member of the Senior Class at the Phoenix Union High school and very popular among members of the younger set. Mr. Hudson, the groom, is a native son and belongs to a pioneer family of prominence. His father, Robt. Hudson came to Arizona in the early Eighties and has made his home in Phoenix the greater part of that time. Maurice as been employed by Patological Laboratory people whose offices are in the Goodrich building. He has worked there more than ten years and is a trusted employee. Mr. and Mrs. Hudson left Thursday morning for the coast where they will spend a month's honeymoon, and will be at home in Phoenix after July 15. PRESIDENT SAYS EDUCATION WILL SOLVE OUR PROBLEM PRESIDENT SAYS EDUCATION WILL SOLVE OUR PROBLEM (Special to The Tribune.) Oxford, Pa., June 16—Education is the solution of the race problem." President Harding said to Negro students at Lincoln Memorial University here today. "God grant that there shall never be another such spectacle in this country," he said, referring to the Tulsa race riots. The President stopped here for a short time on his way back from Valley Forge, Pa., where he spent the week-end at the home of Senator Knox. HARDING WILL NOT APPOINT BLACK MAN REGISTRAR. AVERS (Special to The Tribune.) Washington, D. C.—President Harding has practically determined not to appoint a colored man as Registrar of the Treasurery for the United States. This information comes from an authoritative source, and seems to be final. There are two or more reasons advanced for this unusual turn of political events, according to those well informed. First, it is stated that pressure has been brought to bear by certain Republican Senators of the north against the wisdom of appointing a colored man, in the face of the protests of southern people. Second, it is stated that the position has become "too important for a colored man," there being more than 500 clerks in the department, where there were formerly fifteen. President Harding intends to give a number of appointments to colored Americans, including Charles A Cottrill, who has been prominently mentioned for the position of registrar. There have been no actual appointments by the President which require senatorial confirmation, up to date. In regard to the Registrar of the Treasury, it is stated that in 1898, when Frank A. Vanderlip was in the treasury department, a similar situation of protest was up concerning the appointment of a colored man, and that Mr. anderlip shut down on the matter, and Judson Lyons was given the position. This Counterfeiter Raised Dollar Bill To Ten, Spot With Ease (By The Associated Negro Press) Osala, Fla., June 16.—A clever Negro counterfeiter who has given government operatives worlds of trouble for more than three years has been caught by secret service agents in Ocala, Fla., according to information received at Atlanta headquarters of the service last Monday. He is Roy S. Dorsey, of Ocala, who possesses, according to government sleuths, uncanny ability for transforming $1.00 bills into ten spots, and who, they charge, has flooded the southern states with bogus bills for a long period. Secret' Service Agent H. B. Arnold, of te Atlanta office, nabbed the man on a train a few miles out of Ocala last Friday, he reported, while the Negro was paying his fare with a fake $10.00 bill. Mr. Arnold arrested him and forced him to show him to his Ocala home. There the agent reported he uncovered a complete counterfeiting outfit. The man admitted his guilt, the agent said, and was lodged in jail in Ocala, 'to await trial in United States court on various counterfeiting charges—some dating as far back as 1915. GRAND SECRETARY ILLINOIS MASONS PASSES TO REWARD (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, June 15.—The funeral services of James C.

POPULAR EDUCATOR CAUGHT REDHANDED IN BAD POSITION (Special to The Tribune) Raleigh, N. C., June 16—Quite a stir has been created in local circles following the arrest of Prof. C. R. Frazier, for a number of years dean of Shaw University, and a prominent young colored woman on fast Thursday night following a phone message received at the police station asking for an investigation of a suspicious automobile standing on South Person street between Davie and Cabarron streets, with all lights out. This call was sent in by a female voice. Officer J. P. Thompson and J. A. Bailey responded to the call and as a result, C. R. Frazier with a girl was brought back to the station house and released on $100 bond each which was given by Frazier. Officer Thompson interviewed "states that upon reaching the scene they found an automobile with all lights out and they approached the back of the car to note the number, they heard a noise in the inside and immediately looked in with flashlight turned on, beheld both parties in such attitude and clothes in such arrangement as to be satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt that the parties were engaged in an immoral act. We arrested them and carried them to the station house, when asked their names the man gave his name as C. R. Frazier, the girl refused to give her name, then Frazier admitted his guilt saying this was his first time, that he had been connected with the school for 19 years and this would ruin reputation." Officer Bailey corroborated Officer Thompson and adds that while Frazier would not go around talking about himself, he did not believe he would try to lie out of it." He says "Frazier was certainly an excited, and nervous man that night and that he felt a little sorry for him."

"Tomorrow," said the languid man, "I'll have my Time insured, I guess; I know it is the safest plan to save my children from distress." And when the morrow came around, they placed him gently in a box; at break of morning he was found as dead as Julius Caesar's ox. His widow now is scrubbing floors, and washing shirts and splitting wood, and doing fifty other chores that she may rear his walling brood. "Tomorrow," said the careless jay, "I'll take an hour, and make my will; and then if I should pass away, the wife and kids will know no ill." Tomorrow came, serene and nice, the weather mild, with signs of rain; the careless jay was placed on ice, embalming fluid in his brain. Alas, alas, poor careless jay!

Edward Jones of Douglas will preach for the congregation at the Antioch Baptist church. All are invited to come and hear him. District Conference a Success The Arizona District Conference of the California Conference was a great success. It was one of the best ever held in this connection. The preaching was by Revs. T. C. Cook of Elpaso, Texas,Kenchloe of Las Cruess, N. M., J. R. Rector of Douglas, Clark W. B. Butler, the presiding elder of the Los Angeles district, A. R. Caldwell and M. Thompson of Phoenix. Every part of the work of the church was touched. The presiding elder Z. Z. Johnson was at his best and he is expecting great things from the ministers and the missionary ladies of the Arizona district. The Bisbee people are to be congratulated for their hospitality. They saw to it that every delegate was well taken care of. We had plenty to eat, nice beds to sleep in and plenty of good cold well water to drink. We pray God's blessings on Z. Z. Johnson and the people of Bisbee for that most manly and magnificent way of conducting the district conference. Rev. R. H. Herring Safe A letter received from Pueblo, Colorado, informs us that Rev. and Mrs. R. H. Herring, formerly of this city, are safe and sound and were not victims of the recent flood. Organizer Here Rev. Coleman Johnson of Somerton Arizona is a recent arrival and is trying to organize a branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The organization is headed by one Marcus Garvey and the object is to induce Negroes to return to Africa. Word comes to us from Prescott that Mr. Oliver Bess of that city has become mentally deficient and will be removed to the state hospital in Phoenix soon. Mr. Bess has been in the house cleaning business in Prescott for a number of years and has borne a splendid reputation for industry and thrift. His many friends regret this sad incident and trust he will soon regain his mental poise.

Harris Sare A letter received this week from attorney Leonard J. Harris of Pueblo, Colo., informs us that he and his family were not affected by the flood. Mr. Harris is a former resident of Arizona having made his home in Prescott for a number of years before going to Pueblo to reside. He is engaged in the real estate and employment business and also is a large stockholder in the Neilson Furniture Co., Inc., of that city. We wish to thank the public and our friends for the great support they gave us during the great rally of the Second Baptist church which closed last Sunday night. Through your support we were enabled not only to go "over the top", but to carry the banner. Those of you who heard our report know better as to whether we lived up to our name or not. Mrs. T. M. Hawkins of 1616 East Jefferson St., entertained on last Sunday with an outing party in honor of her husband's birthday. The entire party was taken by auto to a spot just west of Tempe where a beautiful picnic birthday party was held. In the group were Mr. and Mrs. W. W.

Mrs. Lewis who is a member of the Tabernacle, has been indisposed the past few months and the members of this order thought to surprise her by swooping down upon her unaware, with a liberal supply of groceries and other home comforts. She was taken completely by surprise, but rejoiced in fact that she had been so thoughtfully remembered by the members of her lodge. On last Sunday night, June 12th Captains of various clubs who have been raising money for the Second Baptist church, made their reports. The Cooper Queene Club No. 5, with Mr. A.

Mr. Pitts is a bachelor, but inasmuch as his car can carry two as well as one, we wonder how long he is going to be selfish and ride alone. Two's company. Mr. Pitts and three make a crowd. Would you like to have a company? Ladies, here's your chance. A letter received this week from Mrs. E. T. Ellsworth of Los Angeles, Cal., informs us of the death in that city last month of her aunt, Mrs. T. J. Gates, formerly of Tucson, Arizona. Mrs. Gates left Tucson last November and went to live with her niece in Los Angeles where she hoped to benefit her health. She improved but little and at the beginning of spring she failed rapidly until on May 26, when she breathed her last. She had been a resident of Tucson for the last 25 years, active member of the A. M. E. church also a member of the Eastern Star and Household of Ruth. She leaves many relatives in Los Angeles, and a nephew in Tucson whom she reared from childhood, and a host of friends to mourn her passing. Giants Win Again Last Sunday at East Lake Park the Western Giants came into their own by defeating the Mesa team in one of the fastest games ever witnessed on the local diamond. Wiz White pitched a heady game throughout and had the visitors on his hip all the while. The Giants have been strengthened materially by the addition of several new players and this team is now well nigh invincible. Monday afternoon June 20, the Giants will cross bats with the 10th Cavalry team from Fort Huachuca. The soldiers have a crack team and the Giants will be given na opportunity to extend themselves if they hope to walk away with the winning score. Manager Hicks of the Giants says that he is not a bit nervous. Let's go out Monday and see what we shall see.

THE MAN WORTH WHILE It's the man who can smile in spite of his hurt. Who can hold up his head though he lies in the dirt. Who can keep a stiff lip when the world's dead wrong And for life's every jibe flings back a song; It's the man who can cover his pain with a smile Who is really and truly the man who's worth while. The man who, though friends double-cross and deceive Just smiles and continues to love and believe; Who says: "For each friend who is false and untrue There are six who are steadfast and kind and true blue." It's the smile on the lip, not the ache in the soul. That brings one the nearer to reaching his goal. The world doesn't hark to the moan and the sign; The man with the groan is the soonest passed by. And the path through this world of sorrow and sin Is easier far if it's trod with a grin. Being able to smile is life's greatest art, And a smile on the lips is worth two in the heart.

LOOKING BACKWARD Thousands of people of our group will assemble Monday, June 20, Arizona and other sections of the country t commemorate the fifty-eight anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Briefly reviewing the history of the Civil War you will observe that Proclamation signed by Abraham Lincoln on the 22nd day of September 1862, to take effect on the 1st day of January, 1863, was not the first Proclamation of its kind that was issued during the Civil War. The 31st t Thousands of people of our group will assemble Monday, June 20, in Arizona and other sections of the country t commemorate the fifty-eighth anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Briefly reviewing the history of the Civil War you will observe that the Proclamation signed by Abraham Lincoln on the 22nd day of September, 1862, to take effect on the 1st day of January, 1863, was not the first Proclamation of its kind that was issued during the Civil War. The 31st day of August, 1861, and the 9th day of May, 1862, should not be forgotten. Because it was on the 31st day of August, 1861, that John C. Freemont, a Major-General in the United States Army issued a Proclamation placing Missouri under martial law, precriing the death penalty for bridge-burners and telegraph cutters, and containing this claus, which became famous as the first Emancipation Proclamation in America: "The property, real and personal, of all persons in the State of Missouri, who shall take up arms against the United States, or who shall be directly proven to have taken active part with their enemies in the field, is declared to be confiscated to the public use; and their slaves, if any they have, are hereby declared free men!" Two days after this Proclamation was issued, the President wrote a private letter to Freemont, asking him to change his Proclamation so as to conform to the Act of Congress approved August 6, 1861. Freemont declined to change his Proclamation as of his own monition and suggested that if it was to be modified the President himself should do it openly—which he did. On the 9th day of May, 1862, Major-General David Hunter, who was then in command on the South Carolina and Georgia coast, issued a general order, wherein he said: "Slavery and martial law in a free country are incompatible. The persons in these States—Georgia, Florida and South Carolina—heretofore held as slaves, are therefore declared forever free." Ten days later the President issued a Proclamation annulling Hunter's, and adding: "I further make known that, whether it be competent for me, as Commander-in-Chief of the army and navy, to declare the slaves of any State or States free; and whether at any time, or in any case it shall have become a necessity indispensable to the maintenance of the government to exercise such supposed power, are questions which under my responsibility, I reserve to myself, and which I cannot feel justified in leaving to the decision of commanders in the field." Soon after this, the battle of Antietam was fought and while it was quite indecisive, it was looked upon at the North as a great victory. It emboldened President Lincoln to put forth his premonitory Proclamation for the abolition of slavery, which he had prepared months before, announcing that if on the 1st of the ensuing January, the rebellion should still continue, he should in virtue of his power as Commander-in-Chief of the army and navy of the United States, order and declare that all persons held as slaves in the rebellious sections, "are and henceforth shall be free", and that "the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval power thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons. And such persons of suitable condition, will be received in the armed service of the United States." On the 22nd day of September, 1862, President Lincoln signed the great Proclamation and on January 1, 1863, by virtue of said Proclamation all persons held as slaves in these United States became free. Four million Negroes whose ancestors had been held in slavery for two hundred and forty-four years, were turned out upon the world without education, without food, clothing or shelter to shift for themselves. Unlike the Hebrews, there was no Moses sent to lead them to a land that flowed with milk and honey; circumstances compelled them to live in America and work out their on destiny as a submerged race surrounded by those individuals who had formerly held them as slaves. Now, after fifty-eight years of freedom, we, the descendants of former slaves, can look back with pride and proclaim to the world that we have measured up fairly well to every standard of the white man's civilization. Denied the opportunity to work and labor in many of the skilled branches of industry; discriminated against and forced to ride in Jim Crow cars in certain sections of the country; deprived of the privilege of exercising the right-guaranteed to us by the Constitution of the United States; denied the right of trial by jury in many cases, and premisculously lynched, mobbed and burned at the stake, still we remain loyal to the great Government of the United States and the laws of our land. If it were possible to read the minds and hearts of men in America today, I sincerely believe you would find more respect for law and order, among our group than you would find in any other group of people in America. As a race, we have many things for which to be thankful; we should be proud of the fact that our blood has been given freely to maintain the supremacy of the American Flag in every war in which America has been engaged; we should rejoice to think that no Negro has ever attempted to lynch, mob or burn another human being in America; we should be proud of the fact that we have invested more than eighty-five millions of dollars in building churches and dedicating them to the service of God; men of our race have been educated in all the professions and they are holding their own alongside of the men of other races; we invested millions of dollars in Liberty bonds and we rank as creditors of this great government. Men of our race have established banking institutions in nearly every great city in the United States. The men of our race are making good in theology, medicine, law and business. We have millions of dollars invested in homes and farm lands all over these United States. And thank God, the women of our race are not asleep, but are taking their places by the side of women of other races in America and some of them are leading their white sisters in music and art. Space will not permit me to go into details and discuss with you some of the imaginary problems of our race, but let me say right here that cooperation is the keynote; there is no problem too great for us to solve if we will learn to co-operate one with the other. Lets get together and establish business enterprises upon a solid foundation and patronize the business of the people of our race; let us encourage and stimulate race pride and race consciousness and build up within our own race, captains of industry. We have contributed our money to make the men of other races rich, now let us get together and patronize the men and women of our own race and make some of them rich. If we do this, then we will be making places for our young men and young women to find employment commensurate with their ability and training. The Mt. O its excellent leadership of moving on T.

Chickens and other poultry thrive and in the southwestern portion cattle are being raised to fine advantage. A prominent official said recently. "All this talk about color prejudice in Brazil is the veriest nonsense. Color race is no bar in Brazil and never will be. We want men stout of heart and willing to work. That is all we are asking of colonists." LEADING BLACK MEN BEGINNING TO DOUBT PRESIDENT HARBING (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June 16—"Will President Harding fail us?" That is a very serious question that is being asked by everyone interested in political progress. It is being asked by no less persons than Col. Henry-Lincoln Johnson, Republican National Committeemen from Georgia, and Robert R. Church, well known business man and political wizard of Tennessee. It is also being asked by their political associates and newspapers of the races, from one end of the country to the other. There is no desire to see the President fail his 12,000,000 colored American constituency, that backed him unanimously in his election. In fact numbers of letters are coming to leaders in Washington stating that religious denominations are holding prayer meetings, in the cities and back in the villages and the hills and mountains, praying that President Harding may be given courage to stand up to the high sentiments of justice expressed in his many political addresses. The people wish nothing less and, even in the words of Henry Lincoln Johnson, "we certainly can endure nothing less." South Source of Trouble The whole trouble is bound up in the policy of recognition. Colored Americans are insisting that all citizens be recognized absolutely on merit. Very active elements in the south are urging the President to "classify" the Negro, and that means to eliminate and segregate. The President, it is said, refuses to eliminate, but that he is lending a listening, if not sympathetic ear, to the plan of segregation. This information may strike the Colored Americans throughout the country with amazement, but The Associated Negro Press learns this from high authority. The situation at present may be stated: FIRST: There will be no appointment of colored Americans to office in southern states. SECOND: There will be no ap appointment of colored Americans to presidential office, that is, offices that require the confirmation of the United States senate. THIRD: There will be no appointment of a colored Registrar of the United States Treasury, Recorder of Deeds or any other similar office formerly held by colored Republicans. FOURTH: There will be appointments of a number of prominent colored Americans to prominent places in various departments as many as20 or more places that do not require senate confirmation. Such appoint- ments will, have salaries attached amounting to $5,000 or more, and will have the approval of President Harding. Colored Leaders Oppose This program of policy does not meet the approval of colored Americans, and President Harding is being respectfully informed of the facts. "We don't wants 'jobs,' ye want 'positions,'" declared Col. Johnson. "It does not matter to us if the jobs named have salaries with the wealth of Shylock, it is a matter of principle, and we must have justice. "On this matter of principle," continued Col. Johnson. "We want the position of Register of the Treasury. If the protest of a few women can keep us from this place, a similar protest can keep us from any place that may be given. It cannot only keep us from places of employment, but from civic justice everywhere. This we must unalterably oppose, with the help of Almighty God." A Step Backward It is stated that if President Harding pursue this policy it will be a step backward, even farther than Taft and Woodrow Wilson. It is argued they appointed a number of men to federal positions requiring senate con- as Here---- at time we have filled over a pharmacists regularly employed. and use every means to have called for and delivered any- Candies k Finishing —IT'S FREE STORE Phoenix, Arizona firmation. It is stated that even Woodrow Wilson named a colored man for Register of the Treasury, even thought he later withdrew the name and placed in nomination an Indian. That the President is not in favor of appointing any colored person to any office where he will come in contact or be "over white" employees, is being stated by those close to him. This policy, if carried out, will have a sickening effect on the party in the elections for 1922, so far as colored Republicans are concerned. Robert R. Church, who has been regarded as an Administration spokesman, has let it be known among friends that he will assume no position of "pussyfooting," double-crossing or compromise. He stated that he will absolve himself of all responsibility if this attitude is assumed as Administration policy. In this position he is being backed practically unanimously by all political leaders. Brazil Government Objects To False Reports Made About Country (By The Associated Negro Press) Rio Janiero, Brazil, June 16.—The government is about to issue a Pronouncement which will declare that the reports that are being given out in various parts of the United States to the effect that there is color prejudice in Brazil are without foundation and can not be verified by anyone who will put themselves to the trouble to verify them. Quite to the contrary, the pronouncement will point out, the government stands ready and most willing to give encouragement to all worthy colonists without regard to race or color. At the office of the Secretary of State it was announced recently that extra inducements were about to be offered to Negro Colonists from the United States to settle in the State of Matto Grosso. As has been stated in former cablegrams this is to be done because of the unusually favorable conditions to be found in that part of the Republic for Negro colonists from the southern portion of the great American Republic. Cotton is to be added to the stable products of the Republic by our national government. Anumberof experiments have met with pronounced success in this connection in the state of Matto Grosso. The sweet potato, corn of a very fine quality and garden truck of various kinds have been successfully raised recently in this section with highly profitable results. Chickens and other poultry thrive and in the southwestern portion cattle are being raised to fine advantage. A prominent official said recently, "All this talk about color prejudice in Brazil is the veriest nonsense. Color race is no bar in Brazil and never will be. We want men stout of heart and willing to work. That is all we are asking of colonists." Prominent Chicago Physician In Toils (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, June 16.—Dr. Elbert R. Robinson, colored, who filed suits last year charging infringements on a car wheel patent that ran into Millions, is in trouble again. On the strength of the suits it is estimated that he borrowed around $500,000, promising to pay back approximately 14,000 per cent "when the suits were settled." Several days ago Deputy Marshals Samuel Howard and Frank Campbell tried to serve a bankrupt subpoena on Robinson on State street near 31st and were attacked by a crowd of Robinson's friends, who beath them. But he left his two cars behind, one of them worth about 10,000, and trimmed in gold. It is believed he will come back to claim this idol of his heart. When he does he will be placed in a cell with about seventeen others charged with attacking the marshals. PRESCOTT By Mrs. Dora Rose Mrs. Bragdon of Galveston, Tex., is a recent arrival in Prescott and is staying at the home of Mrs. B. C.
