FORMER POLICEMAN LETS CAT OUT OF BAG IN HIS CONFESSION
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Tulsa, Okla., Oct. 21.—Elisha Scott of Topeka, Kans., one of the attorneys retained by the Tulsa riot victims, has a signed affidavit in his possession that when produced will throw an entirely new light on the insurrection carefully planned by the whites here on May 31 last.
```markdown
```
It is the confession of a former Tulsa policeman, Van B. Hurley (white), and consists of 21 pages. Hurley, who was honorably discharged from the force and given splendid recommendations by his captains and lieutenants, names several prominent city officials who he declared met in a downtown office and carefully planned the attack on the segregated district by the use of airplanes. He gives in detail a description of the conference between local aviators and the officials.
After this meeting Hurley asserted the airplanes started out from hangers and hovered over the district dropping nitroglycerine on buildings, setting them afire. When questioned regarding instructions from police officials shortly before the riot, his answer was as follows:
"They gave instructions for every man to be ready and on the alert and if niggers wanted to start anything to be ready for them. They put forth no efforts at all to prevent it whatever, and said if they started anything to kill every b—son of a b—they could find." Gustafson, who was chief of police at the time, was later dismissed.
"On the morning of June 1 they gave me orders to go over to the Negro district," Hurley said. "There was a bunch of rogues, the lower class of white people, stealing and robbing and bursting open trunks and carrying off stuff. Well, I found conditions unspeakable in the way of robbery. I arrested eight and turned them over to the patrol, but that is the last I ever saw of them or heard of them. I don't suppose they ever reached the jail."
Hurley says drays came later and moved the stolen articles away, despite the fact that the Boy Scouts, guarding the district, had strict orders to permit only Red Cross cars. It was the former policeman's opinion that members of our Race fought in self-defense. However, he punctured his remark with an exception, naming those who came to the court house to avoid the proposed lynching of Dick Rowland.
The confession also involved a well known police official. He is Captain George G. Blaine. Hurley states that Blaine rode in one of the airplanes that hovered over the district during the riot.

The Executive Board of the local branch, N. A. A. C. P., met last week at the home of Miss Filmore for the purpose of selecting line officers—Colonel, Major and Captain. This branch is doing some great work for the uplift and advancement of the race. Mr. Hayes was chosen Colonel, Mr. Clark, Major, Mr. Andrews, Captain, and Mr. Garrison, secretary. During the absence of the president, Mr. D. C. Patillo, who was called away on account of sickness in his family, the vice president has assumed control and is doing things. The next meeting of the association will be October 31 at 833 Sixteenth street. All invited to attend the meetings.
The C. M. E. church is doing nicely. The members of this church are loyal and all work together harmoniously for the success of the cause. The pastor, Rev. J. R. Rector, left last Tuesday for Los Angeles, Cal., to attend the annual conference, which convened October 19. This Sunday school also is doing fine.
Last Sunday Mrs. M. L. Bird was the dinner guest of Rev. and Mrs. J. R. Rector.
Mr. Olive Baptist church with its new piano and large membership is moving forward toward the mark of the high calling. The Sunday school also has a large attendance with Mrs. M. C. Can as teacher. All invited to attend services at this church.
The A. M. E. church is making some headway with it smembers and they invite you to come to this church every Sunday. Mrs. H. L. Baily is still at the head of the Sunday school and everything is going along nicely.
Mrs. C. T. Smith of Salt Lake City, Utah, is spending a few days in Pirtleville and Douglas visiting her sister, Mrs. Smallwood. She has made many friends since her arrival and they hope she will remain indefinitely.

Dr. Jonn A. Smith, the chiropodist, has had his office remodefed and decorated. It looks more like a palace than an office. We are proud of our Colored doctor.

EXPERT TELLS HOW TO FURNISH HOMES IN ARTISTIC STYLE
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., Oct. 21.—That the average American citizen does not know how to furnish tastefully his home, and that the few who do are hard put to it to find anything approximating real art, were statements approximated today by Ross Crane, head of the Art institute's extension department.
Following are Mr. Crane's five rules for furniture buying:
Never buy furniture just because it is in a prevailing style. In two years another latest thing will make it as obsolete as a what-not.
Never buy furniture "just for now."
Never buy any furniture in a hurry. You will repent at leisure.
Never buy any highly varnished furniture.
People of moderate means—never buy any furniture you can not afford to buy.
"Furniture should be regarded as a life investment and a life companion," said Mr. Crane. "And you want to choose life companions with care."

FORCE MEN TO WORK FOR TWO DOLLARS PER DAY OR GO TO JAIL
(Special To The Tribune)
Greenwood... Miss., Oct. 21. — Because they refused to accept the wages offered them by the owners of the steamboat Choctaw, two members of the crew are now languishing in jail, having been convicted by the police on the charge of vagrancy.
Several days ago the crew, all Negroes, went on strike for a raise in salary. They asked for $3 a day. The steamboat officials offered them $2 and board.
Unable to reach an agreement, the strikers left the boat, leaving word they could be found in a pool room if their terms were later complied with.
After a conference between Chief of Police Bonner and the boat officials it was decided to teach the "fresh darkies" a lesson for presuming too much. So a number of Mississippi "cops" swooped down on the pool room and arrested every member of the striking crew found in the place.
After remaining in jail three or four hours, all agreed to return to work for the wages offered by the company except two. So for having the temerity to ask for a square deal, they were fined $50 each and sentenced to 30 days in jail.

ASIATIC LEAGUE IN COURSE OF FORMATION WITH JAPAN AS HEAD
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Tokio, Japan, Oct. 21.—An Asiatic League, with Japan at its head, and with the object of combating the so-called aggressive policy of the white race is being organized in the Far East, according to newspapers here.
Marcus Okuma and other prominent Japanese are said to be behind the project.
"Whatever the weakness of Japan, on her depends the guidance of Asia in the right direction," Dr. Ryu, a Korean, said.
Dr. Ryu added that headquarters for the movement would be established in Tokio, with branches throughout Asia and that a newspaper would be published in Japanese, Korean and Chinese to propagate the idea of uniting all the Asiatic peoples "against the aggression of the whites."

WOMEN'S DRESSES WILL BE MUCH LONGER THIS AUTUMN, AVERS
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Oct. 21.—An unexpected $50,000,000 will pour into the pockets of dealers in women's garments, manufacturers of cloth and their employees this winter and next spring as a result of the Paris decree prescribing longer skirts. Translated by government economists into terms of cold commercial fact, this is what the new vogue will mean: 25 million yards of cloth to be manufactured and sold over and above last season. One million costumes scrapped by women anxious to keep in style. Twenty thousand new employees in textile mills and stores. Government experts in departments in Washington have been giving attention to the Paris fashion news for months. The question whether women's skirts are to be longer or shorter is a matter of vital concern to the economic and business experts of the government.

Mrs. Annette Maxwell has been slightly indisposed for the past week. Mrs. Fayrene Beard is confined in the hospital suffering with typhoid fever. Mr. W. D. Alexander and Vermont Toomer spent Sunday in the southern part of the county in search of the elusive quail. They report a pleasant trip, but not much game. Mrs. Thomas King of N.

MAYOR OF NEW YORK PROVES FRIENDLY TO COLORED PEOPLE
(By The Associated Negro Press)
New York, N. Y., Oct. 21.—M mayor Hylan made a fervent appeal to colored voters recently in the Ruth Memorial church. He said, among other things:
"What the Negro is entitled to and should receive is a square deal, equal opportunities in civil and industrial life, which are guaranteed to him under the constitution," Mayor Hylan said. "This city administration has steadfastly insisted that Negroes shall have a square seal and the protection to which they are entitled.
"In this connection, I may point out that in 1918 representatives of the National Urban Condition Among Negroes conferred with the trustees of Bellevue and allied hospitals in regard to admitting to the interne staff of Bellevue hospital Negroes who are graduates of reputable schools of medicine. These representatives were told that all appointments to Bellevue and allied hospitals were made solely on ability and merit, and that absolutely no discrimination was made because of race or creed. I am happy to say that since that date several colored physicians have served as internes at Bellevue hospital; that a number have been appointed to the out-patient department at Harlem hospital and that more consideration is still to follow.
"During the past three years and nine months Negroes have been appointed to the mayor's office and the district attorney's office and both colored men and colored women have been appointed to the police department. These instances have been cited to show my personal interest as well as that of the city administration in the colored people. This is in keeping with our policy of administrating the affairs of the city in the interest of the people. The humblest citizen, regardless of his race, creed or social status, has been listened to respectfully and given every possible consideration."
Zionists Say That Roosters Are Worthless And Hens Indispensable
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Zion City, Ill., Oct. 21.—Now a hen amounts to something. When it opens its mouth and makes a racket you may be reasonably sure it has produced something worth talking about. But a rooster—
"They're no good anyway," says the Rev. C. P. Hard, retired Methodist preacher. "They don't lay eggs, but they wake everybody up just the same."
Therefore Dr. Hard has announced he will request the city council of Zion to tax chanticleer owners 5 cents a rooster.

If you want to work in the kind of a church,
Like the kind of a church you like,
You needn’t slip your clothes in a grip
And start for a long, long hike,
You'll only find what you left behind,
For there’s nothing that’s really new;
It’s a knock at yourself when you knock your church;
It isn’t your chureh, [11S YOU.
Real churches aren’t made by men afraid
Lest somebody else goes ahead;
When everyone works and nobody shirks,
You can raise the church from the dead.

Your neighbor can make one,'too,
Your church will be what you want to see—
It isn’t your church, IT’S YOU!

Don't go abroad to buy something when you have a few
dollars to spend and then ask your home merchants to sell yqu
on time when you are broke. If you have bills with your mer-
chant who has given you credit and an extension of time and
accepted small payments, and take your cash to the city to spend
with a stranger who has no interest in your town, nine times out
of ten he will “do” you because he never expects to see you
again. The home merchant will save you money with reliable
godds, which he guarantees with his reputation.

Don’t make fun of your local paper. It has possibilities of

fleets the community in which it is published, and it is the one
product that goes to far places bearing the town trade mark.

Don’t ask him to print it onthe front page and just the

Don’t worry lest the editor makes too much money. If he’s
prosperous, he'll be foolish enough to give his community a
better paper; that’s an editor’s ambition—that’s why he engages
in the publicity business.
~Tell him when he has a good paper. You are willing to
congratulate your preacher on a good sermon, and your mer-
chant on an attractive window display. The editor is no less
grateful for a word of praise.
Make it a point to visit the print shop and learn of its dif-
ficulties and complexities. At least that will give you a more
charitable attitude. The paper should not be the product of the
editor solely, but of all those who are interested in it as friends,
contributors, readers or advertisers,—Southland Farmer.
Getting out a newspaper is no picnic. If we print jokes,
folks say we are silly; if we don’t, they say we are too serious.
Tf we publish original matter, they say we lack variety; if we
publish things from other papers, they say we are too lazy to
write. If we don’t go to church, we are heathens; if we do go,
We are hypocrites. If we stay in the office, we ought to be
hustling for news, if we hustle for news, we are not attending to
business in the office. If we wear old clothes, we are slovenly ;
if we wear new clothes, they say they are not paid for. What in

Sunday, October 16, was a gala day
jor the Colored 400 of Tucson, the oc:
casion being the arrival of the Dixie
minstrels, and it goes without saying
that the 400 were out in their best
and it seemed that one was trying to
outdo the other. The songs and jokes
were new and catchy and seemed to
please the large audience, and all left
wishing an early return of the boys.
Quite a few of the minstrel boys knew
many of the leading ladies of Tucson,
and during show time made love and
talked with them, ‘The ladies wept
at the departure of the troupe, but
the boys cheered them up by telling
them that they would return again
soon. After the show, the boys were
entertained by a group of Tucson
gifls until the wee sma’ hours of the
morning and had to hurry to the
depot to catch their train. yThe niin-

OF THE STATE CAPITAL By R. L. S., Society Editor.
Living Models Introduced
The entertainment given Tuesday night at the Community House by ladies of the Charity Club proved very enjoyable. Real honest-to-goodness living picture models were introduced and the house was in an uproar from start to finish. Mrs. Lynn Carter as America made a pretty picture. She was attired in a costume made of United States flags. On her right stood Parquet Childress dressed in soldier's uniform. He stood at attention, while little Dorothy Jones and Wimstona Hackett stood on either side with miniature flags. The audience stood and sang the "Etar Spangled Banner," during the presentation of this number.
Next came Mrs. F. W. Burney, Mrs. Oralee Mimms and Miss Inez Stewart as Japanese girls. This picture was very realistic and brought forth much applause. Following this came "The Flight Into Egypt," in which Mrs. Winston C. Hackett with babe in arms Mr. Walter McKenney leading a donkey and Dorthy Jones and Winstone Hackett kneeling in front of the babe, made a very pretty picture. This number received an encore.
Next came the Bathing Girl in which Mrs. A. Stewart appeared in the modern bathing costume, posing as a diving venus. Her's was a perfect picture. Following this came Mrs. I. F. Silvers as an Indian Maid. She was dressed in the regulation costume and held a bow and arrow as though taking aim at some object. This was a very unique picture.
Next came Mrs. Blanch McKenney as the Organ Grinder. She was clad in blue overalls, had a cork leg and looked like the old Organ Grinder of 30 years ago. This picture was a scream and received an encore. Following this came Mrs. Pearl Carter as a Red Cross Nurse. She was attired in the red cross uniform and before her lay a wounded soldier in the person of Parquet Childress. This too received loud applause.
Next came Miss Mattie Ware as a Spanish Dancer. She looked the part to a "T," the only objection was made by a male member of the aurience who said that he had never before seen a Spanish Dancer remain still like this one. She presented a perfect picture and was roundly applauded. Followthis came Mrs. Jessie James as a Spinner. She took one back to 40 years ago when the old spinning wheel was in vogue. This picture was incomparable.
Next came the Fortune Teller, Mrs. O. B. Simmons looked the part of the Gypsy Fortune Teller and Missnez Stewart played the part of the willing victim. This number brought down the house and they were cheered to the echo.
Miss Eleanor Garcia Payne presided at the piano during the performance which was well worth ten times the price of admission. Refreshments were served and a neat sum realized for Sweet Charity.
War Department—Kingdom of God
Owing to a disturbance in His Majesty's Realm, due to the forces of evil, the soldiers of King Jesus are called to arms. You are hereby ordered to report for duty at the armory, the Antioch Baptist church, corner East Washington and 11th street, Tuesday night, October 25, at 7:30 o'clock, to receive marching orders for the great revival campaign and bible Institute, which will be conducted by Dr. F. O. Brown of El Paso, Texas. Dr. Brown is one of the most powerful evangelists to visit Phoenix. Every soldier is requested to appear with side arms only—"The Sword of the Spirit." This is not a battle with carnal weapons, but with the Sword of the Spirit, gospel preaching and dollars for the kingdom work. Therefore, let every true soldier be on the fighting line. All pastors in the city and their congregations invited to take part in this twenty or thirty days' revival. God is a swift witness to the invitation.
A few Sunday nights ago Mrs. Johnnie Fletcher of 609 S. 3rd St., laid covers for eight at a midnight Spanish luncheon in honor of Miss Myrtle Hackett of Alameda, Cal., who is spending the winter with her cousin Dr. W. C. Hackett and wife of 1334 East Jefferson street.

Splendid Program
The Women's Home Mission Society of the C. M. E. church rendered a very interesting program last Sunday afternoon at this church. Mrs. C. A. Gilmore, wife of the pastor of Antioch Baptist church, read a splendid paper on Missions. Mrs. A. E. Thompson, wife of the pastor of the C. M. E. church, also made a very interesting talk on the relation of the Juvenile to the Senior Mission. Their remarks showed that they had given much time and thought' to the preparation of their subjects. Mrs. N. E. Hamilton delighted the audience with a humorous selection, rendered as only Mrs. Hamilton can, and a solo by Mrs. Jennie Lucas was also well rendered. Brief remarks were made by A. R. Smith, Rev. Thompson and Mrs. J. Tannehill, Mr. M. A. White was master of ceremonies and Mrs. M. A. White presided at the piano. The program was well rendered to the delight of an appreciative audience who showed their appreciation by contributing the sum of $35 to the cause of Home Missions.
The theme of conversation in our city this week is the party that was given last Friday afternoon, October 14, by Mrs. Johnnie Fletcher of 609 S. 3rd street, in honor of Mrs. J. F. Hudspeth. More than eighty ladies were invited and graced the affair with their presence. Mrs. W. C. Hackett acted as hostess, assisted by Misses Lotta May and Thersa Lopez who served in uniform, while Mrs. Fletcher presided at the piano and also played strains of grand opera on the Victrola. The color scheme was old gold and white, Mrs. Fletcher's class colors. A dainty ice course was served and souvenirs given each lady present. All enjoyed themselves and were unanimous in proclaiming Mrs. Fletcher an excellent hostess. Mrs.

Passes To Her Reward
Mrs. Ella B. Merchant of 1005 East
Jefferson street, died Monday, Octo
ber 17, at 6:45 a. m., following a
lingering illness. Mrs, Merchant was
born July 20, 1874 in Mississippi, lived
with her mother until she was twenty:
three years*of age, a devoted daugh:
ter and loving sister. At the age of
sixteen she united with St. Mathews
A. M. E. church, began her life a
christian soldier and not only lived
in it but died in it with these parting
words: “Jesus Is All The World To
Me.” Singing two verses, Jesus and
His holy angles susrounded her bed
and with this message He took her
and the earthly Message left behind.
“So dear,” she said, “Mother, sister,
brother-in-law and husband, meet me
in heaven for it will all soon be over.”
Mrs. Merchant leaves a mother, two
sisters, a husband, one aunt, one
uncle, counsins and a host of friends
to mourn her loss. The body was
shipped to Greenville, Miss., for in-
terment. Her sister, Mrs, J. R. Turn-
er, accompanied the remains.

Little Tommie Brown was always
imterested in. his new baby sister.
One, day he stood peering down upon
it while nurse was singing it to sleep.
“Nurse,” he whispered at. last,
“she’s nearly unconscious, isn't she?”
“Yes,” nodded the nurse, and con-
tinued singing the lullaby.
‘Tommie whispered in alarm: “Then
don’t sig any more or you'll kill
her.”—Evening News (London)
