"There has never lacked in this country a deep interest in the peace, independence and prosperity of the Republic of Liberia and I am only true to sentiments a century old in offering, Mr. President, to you and your countrymen, the best of wishes for the welfare and progress of your country. I am particularly glad to be able to extend these felicitations at a moment when you are a welcomed visitor in the United States.

"I can assure Your Excellency that such sentiments emanating from the chief executive of the Great Republic—of which Liberia is a proud offspring—and coming just at this momentous period in our national life, will serve as an inspiration to the government and the people of Liberia who have been endeavoring single handedly for the past three quarters of a century to maintain on the continent of Africa a nation established upon those principles of democracy for which your great nation has always stood as the chief exponent and protector.

ANTI-KU KLUX KLAN IS ORGANI'ED IN LONE STAR STATE Beaumon', Tex., Aug. 4.—Organization of a band of men to combat the alleged activities of the Ku Klux Klan in Southeast Texas, with the announced intention of conducting open warfare against members of the Klan, if necessary, because "officers have not the nerve or desire to place under arrest its members who have violated the law," was made known yesterday in a communication addressed to the Ku Klux Klan, and sent to a local newspaper for publication. Squads of "special service men," the notice stated, "have been appointed to locate members of the Klan," and added that summary punishment would be inflicted upon any who are found. The communication says in part: "We have waited patiently for the officers to do their duty, but it seems that they have not the nerve or desire to place under arrest, members of your Klan who violate the law. "We have formed a club, or a mob, you may call it, of more than 100 fearless men, and we are going to stop you people with hot lead and hot steel at the first opportunity, and that will not be far off. We have sworn vengeance on such people and will shot down like a mad dog, men whom we learn to be members of the Klan. "We are going through you people like a bull through a pile of shucks. We are in squads of 12 to 25 men, and will gang upon any occasion to meet you people at any time and any place that we are notified you are to parade or do your dirty work. There are going to be many widows and orphans left in Southeast Texas if the gang is not disbanded upon the reading of this notice." DR. CHAS. T. WALKER EMINENT BAPTIST DIVINE PASSES TO HIS REWARD (By The Associated Negro Press) Augusta, Ga., Aug. 4. — The Rev. Chas. T. Walker, commonly said to be the greatest Negro preacher of his time, died last Friday at his home here.

He founded the colored men's branch Y. M. C. A. in New York, traveled extensively in Europe and the Holy Land and was the author of a number of books of travel as well as sermons. As an evangelist he was widely known. FLAGSTAFF The regular monthly meeting of the local branch. N. A. A. C. P., was held Tuesday evening at the Baptist church.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1921 MEMBERS PETITION BISHOP TO REMOVE POPULAR PASTOR (By The Associated Negro Press) Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 4.—St. John A. M. E. church, one of the oldest established congregations in the entire connection, is on the border of a crisis. More than 500 members, the majority of years standing, have presented a petition to Bishop Jones, asking for the removal of Rev. Dr. Charles Bundy, for the good of the service. A meeting of the committee handling the protest was recently held in Central Bath House, and arrangements completed for having the petition in the hands of Bishop Jones before he sails for Europe this month. The bishop is recovering from a serious illness. The leaders of the protest movement declare that they will withdraw completely from the denomination if their wishes are not regarded. SOME SAY HE DID WHILE OTHERS SAY HE DIDN'T (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., Aug. 4.—"The president didn't say it"; "the president did say it." Washington is just now turbulently discussing the yes and the no of a statement variously attributed to the president which runs thusly: "I am very thoroughly convinced in my mind as to the policy that I am going to inaugurate with reference to appointments and that is, I am not going to appoint any colored men to public office in the southern states. This thing called 'race prejudice' you can not down by battling it and the only solution, as I see it, for the colored man in the south, is to fall into the ranks behind white leadership until he can, acting through southern legislatures, work out his destiny. 'This is my policy,' he continued, "and I am going to follow it, live or sink, sink or swim." These remarks are alleged to have ben made by our chief executive in the presence of Archibald Grimke, Shelby P. Davidson, Charles A. Cottrill and James A. Cobb. The story runs that these men called on the president representing the local branch of the N.A.A.C.P. and Shelby P. Davidson is the member of the delegation who reports that Mr. Harding made the statement attributed to him in the foregoing paragraph. The other members have made no statements regarding the matter. As a matter of fact they could not be located when sought for an interview through which to verify the declaration of Mr. Davidson. TEXAS KU KLUX KLAN DRIFTS INTO POETRY (By The Associated Negro Press) Beaumont, Texas, Aug. 4. — The Beaumont local of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, sent long letters to both newspapers here, in which they assume full responsibility for the recent beating, tarring and feathering of J. S. Paul, local physician, and R. F. Scott, Marine' Corps veteran, of Deweyville. The communication bore the official seal of the order and contained more than 4,000 words as an explanation of the two attacks. They summed up with the following quotations: "For while they rable with their thumb worn creeds, Their large professions and their little deeds, Mingles with the selfish strife, lo! Freedom weeps, Wrong rules the land and waiting justice sleeps." Perhaps it may prove to be interesting to watch for the fast approaching moment when Mr. Harding will lose his place as the "Saviour of the Race." We no sooner get ready for winter in the summer, when we come to face with the problem of getting ready for summer in the winter. In these days it isn't opinion we look for. What we want most is that the fellow on the other side of the table do more eating and less talking. CHURCHES WILL TRY TO STAMP OUT MOB VIOLENCE IN U. S. A. (Special to The Tribune) Washington, D. C., Aug. 4.—Enlistment of all churches in a concerted endeavor to stamp out mob violence and lynching in America and establishment of inter-racial committees in local communities were included in the program adopted, by the Commission on Negro churches and race relation, created by the Federal Council of Churches in Christ in America. Other features of the program are "to provide a central house and meeting place for the churches and for all Christian agencies dealing with the relations of the white and Negro races," and "to promote mutual confidence and acquaintance, both nationally and locally, between white and Negro churches." The meeting Tuesday was the first one held by the commission and it promises to be far reaching in its effects by promoting a better understanding between the races. This conference was called by Dr. Robert E. Speer, of New York, president of the Federal Council. John J. Eagen of Atlanta, was named chairman of the inter-racial commission and a vice chairman is to be selected from the colored churches. This conference was attended by nationally known men. Among those of our group present were: Bishop Smith of the A. M. E. church; Bishop G. C. Clement, of the A. M. E. Zion church; Prof. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A. M. E. church; prof. J. W. Martin, educational secretary of the A. M. E. Zion church; Secretary Tobias of the International Y. M. C. A.; Prof. Isaac Fisher, of Fisk University; Prof. Kelly Miller, of Howard University; Dr. George E. Haynes and J. A. G. LuValle of the Washington Tribune. These met with about adozen white men and women. All of these men made speeches during the conference. Prof. John R. Hawkins made the keynote speech. He spoke very plainly about the existing conditions and how the colored people felt about the matter. "This is an age of materialism vs. idealism," he said. "The best way in my judgment to settle things and bring about a more harmonious relation between the races, would be for every one to ask this quesition: Is this thing right before God? Are we, as colored people wrong in asking for the franchise? and for sanitary conditions, for one standard of morals, for an economic wage scale, for equal educational opportunities, for the segregated coach, for justice before the courts and for a square deal? Is it right to tax the Negro and make him share equal military responsibilities in time of war, and yet not permit him to enter into military organizations in peace time? The white man's ignorance of the colored man is one big hindrance to the races. Let the white people eliminate the idea that God made them for the best and the Negro for service only. "I consider conditions worse today than they were 20 years ago," said Prof. Hawkins. "What we need most is a number of white men and women brave enough to say that these conditions must stop; and they will stop. The big question confronting us is the one of finding the men with the moral courage to say stop." Bishop Smith suggested that we call an armistice and hold conference thereby, getting a better understanding of all conditions and work from the forward. Mrs. Luke Johnson, of Georgia, made an interesting speech, telling of her efforts to secure better relations between the colored and white women of the south. She told of the meetings they held in Memphis and Atlanta. She said: "The colored women of the south held the keynote to the situation." In speaking of Mrs. Booker T. Washington, she said: "To know her is to respect her. We, the women of the south," said Mrs. Johnson, "intend to go to the root of the evil and show what the gospel can do," speaking of lynching." J. A. G. LuValle, of the Tribune said: "After listening to all that has been said, there is one fundamental starting point, to answer the question WHITE MAN LYNCHED BY HIS OWN FOLKS IN MISSISSIPPI (Special to The Tribune) Hattiesburg, Miss., Aug. 4.—Casey Jones, white, recently convicted of the murder of Mrs. J. S. Mosely, wife of a city mail carrier here, and sentenced to be hanged July 18, but whose case was pending before the state supreme court, was taken from the county jail at about 1:15 this morning and hanged in the court house yard by a mob of about seventy-five men. Sheriff Will M. Edmonson and Deputy Joe Gray and Jailer F. H. McKenzie were sitting on the back steps of the court house facing the jail when they saw a mob bearing down on them. They were surrounded by the men, who were heavily armed, and ordered to surrender the prisoner or that the jail would be broken into. McKenzie, who had the keys, refused to surrender them and the mob thereupon proceeded to break down the door of the jail, enter the building and break open five other doors between them and the prisoner. Although not a shot was fired it is understood that the prisoner put up a desperate struggle, getting possession of a razor and badly cutting one of the members of the mob and hitting another over the head with a chair. He was overpowered, however, and given a terrific blow on the back of the head, and then carried down to the tree. The body was cut down and taken to the morgue; where a large crowd gathered. Corormer J. E. Hulett is convening a jury to consider the killing and render a verdict this morning. (Mrs. Dora Rose) The many friends of Mr. Geo.

An auto party, guests of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Owens, left Tuesday for a trip to Grand Canyon. Mr. Tolton Taylor of N. McCormick street, has been indisposed for the past week. Prescott is having added to her musical talent a saxaphonist in the person of Mrs. Georgia Staten. Under the teaching of Mrs. Jno. Massing, she is rapidly mastering this instrument. Mr. F. H. Alexander has returned from a visit to Chicago and other points in the east. Mr. Alexander was present at a reunion of his entire family and reports an enjoyable trip. 'what can the church do to help in this relation?' I would have the white church to know first, that the colored man has lost confidence in the white man's religion. First, re-establish that confidence with the colored people and all these other questions will work out themselves. HENRY FORD LOOMS AS PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER FOR 1924 (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., Aug. 4.—"1924 will see Henry Ford a potential presidential candidate, enjoying the united support of farmers and a strong labor sympathy." This is a prediction current in Washington. The fact that Ford personally is politically independent and always has espoused ideas rather than party platforms, tends to strengthen him with the farmers and industrial workers. Ford is seen in the following roles: Against big bankers Ford rectly won a spectacular victory in scoring a warning that he must accept Wall Street's help and going ahead to prove that such help was not necessary. Espousing the cause of peace and prosperity promised as a result of international armament limitation. Ford has announced his purpose to turn the spotlight of publicity on those bankers and others who might seek to block the success of the armament conclave. Ford proposes taking over the great Muscle Shoals nitrate plant in order to supply cheap fertilizer to the agriculture sections. Having purchased one small railroad and promptly lowered freight rates for the benefit of Michigan fruit growers, he contemplates getting additional railroad property.

BLACK MAN IS SLATED FOR REGISTRAR, AVERS (Special to The Tribune) (Special to The Tribune) Washington, D. C., Aug. 4.—The nomination of Col. Henry L. Johnsonn for Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, gave the "hangers on" new hopes and many names have been expected to go up for "nomination" for a federal job. So far, no other "nomination" has been made; however, speculation has employed much time and conversation as to whom the next would be and for what position. This administration is rather deliberate about colored men to office. Mr. Cottrell of Ohio, has been a faithful "hanger on" and felt sure he would have been appointed Register ere this. However, fate seems to have ordained otherwise, for the latest news is that J. Silas Haris, of Missouri, is camping on the trail of the treasury appointment and seems the most formidable contender for the honor of signing your Uncle Sam's greenbacks. His name may be sent up any day.

Rodgers, president and general manager of the Western Mutual Benefit Association, left this week for Tucson where he will endeavor to interest the colored people of that city in the insurance company he represents and also to appoint an agent in Tucson to look after the business for the Association. Mr. Rodgers stated that he would have many openings for bright, intelligent young men and women of the race after his company becomes well established Phoenix people are standing behind him to a man and backing him up in this worthy enterprise. It's a statewide institution and should be taken hold of by the colored people of Tucson and other cities just as eagerly as it has been supported by the people of Phoenix.

Every person who has ever attended our previous August Sales knows fully the substantial savings that may be effected on good, timely merchandise. This year's sale will be no exception to the rule, in fact, we shall offer still better values, so come prepared to share in the biggest saving in years. The reductions we propose to make on our entire stocks will not be based on prices the prevailed six months or a year ago, but on the present low market prices. It is a well known fact that we led the movement of lowering prices in the State of Arizona a year ago, with the consequent result that the merchandise we owned at high prices was disposed of a long time ago. Since the first of January we have been able to take advantage of every downward revision of prices that existed in the market, and as soon as a lower price was made on any of the lines we carry, we immediately reduced our retail price to correspond with same. We now propose to further reduce our prices in a mammoth event we shall conduct for two weeks beginning August 5th, which will be termed a "TURN-IT-INTO-MONEY SALE". The merchandise in this event will be so temptingly priced that you cannot resist buying. In many instances merchandise will be quoted far below today's market value. The whole store shares in this movement; every department will contribute with such a volume and variety of good, seasonable merchandise that by securing your needs during this sale, you can save a considerable sum and still supply yourself and your home with those things which are necessary. Watch our windows and our daily advertisements; hundreds of items, of course, will be crowded out, but these will be featured inside the store. But don't take our word for it—come and make us back up our statement: We want you to examine the merchandise and judge fou yourself the exceptionally large savings that can be effected on every article you may purchase. JAT.S ials. In the evening the pastor will deliver the sermon for the congregation. To Tucson On Business Messrs. Geo. W. Caldwell, Wm. P Crump and A. M. Carter left this week for Tucson on business.

The local organization is growing in membership and now that they have received their charter, great things are planned for the future. Nearly all of the money paid into the treasury by members, remains in the local treasurer's possession and should they desire to foster an enterprise for the colored people of this city, these funds may be used for that purpose.
