"MEN RAILROADED TO CHAIR," SAYS NOTED ATTORNEY Moorfield Storey Gives Damaging Testimony in Plea Before U. S. Supreme Court—Evidence "Manufactured" WERE "TORTURED" TO CONFESS AT TRIAL (Special to The Pittsburgh Coorter) WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 18. —Charging that the 16 colored men, condemned to die in connection with the Elaine riot cases of 1819, had "been practically railroaded to the electric chair," Moorfield Storey, former president of the American Bar Association, appeared before the United States Supreme Court here Thursday, in a final plea for these men. The courts of Arkansas, newspapers, leading citizens, the Rosary Club, American Legion and other organizations were included in the startling revelators. "Tortured" to Confess. Storey declared in his brief that the most vicious nature was employed to make the prisoners testify, falsely, "mob hysteria commits trial which 'sugared to have taken place in less than an hour." He declared that he had "distinct evidence" that 290 or 300 colored men were killed, that the citizens of Helena "were determined that they were should be convicted" and that "they manufactured the evidence for the purpose." The 16 men for which Storey pleaded were first sentenced to death in 1919, following their alleged participation in the riots, when it is said white farmers tried to place colored workers, in a state of bondage and peace. Brief Review of Case. It was contended at the trial in behalf of the accused colored men that they had assembled in their church at Hoop Spur to devise means at tenant farmers to relieve themselves of conditions which they asserted amounted to peonage. While so assembled, the men claimed that armed, whites surrounded the church and fired upon them, killing a number. This was the beginning of one of the fiercest race riots in the history of the country. Fold days, armed posses of men of both races, hunted each other, as one would a wild animal. Scores were killed in the outskirts of the community were subject to the most brutal torture and suffered until indignities. On behalf of the State, it was asserted that the condemned men had assembled in connection with a plot to massacre white men, and that the firing was done by a posse sent to quell a riot. Judge Gist.

The Saturday Night Dances hold at the Temple Casino, formerly Labor Temple at Washington street and Webster avenues, under the management of Sellers McKee Hall, and have a tremendous hit with the pleasurable loving public. The younger sats of Pittsburgh are well represented in the new Casino, which has recently undergone a process of renovation. It will be remembered by some of the older peoples of our city, that Laor Temple was considered one of the most attractive cities, but since the lease has been taken over entirely by Sell Hall, a complete change has taken place. Not only in appearance of the hall, but in the class of persons who attend regularly, but also in the age of the people have been staged in the Casino, and one of the most attractive schedules of high class amusement has been arranged by Sell. In these conditions, the public at large has shown its appreciation, by patronizing the New Temple's casino, and Manager Hall has already won the confidence of his peers, and some of the best talented performers in the limelight today to appear here. The Temple Orchestra, the personal choice of Sollers Hall, is considered one of the best outfits that ever appeared here. It is well to mention the qualities of Shadea Walker, the pianist, Nadine Freeman the violinist, and Alvin Austin, the young saxophone player-comperson, who are playing better and better.

Gun Heaters, Coal Heaters—Every Style Note: An exchange calls our attention to an article in "The Dearborn Independent." It is from the pen of Henry Ford: There is no need of race hatred in America, says Mr. Ford, even though there is a race question. A race question is primarily a question for the race that is being complained against. The complainant has no way of set-standing against it, so he is compelled to complain. The question between the white and colored races in our country is primarily a question for the white race/. It is a question for the Negro, too, in so far as he ought to identify the enemy of both colored man and the white man the common enemy that is trying to stir hatred between them. Dostiyin has placed two races in the same compartment means to remove to motive or public service every injustice that gives soil for prejudice. There is something to say to the white man, too. The race that calls itself superior can only prove its superiority by superior ability to help others, and can only retain its racial superiority by superior ability to help others. Negro is a human being, capable of integrity, loyalty and domestic peace and prosperity, and as a human being, he is entitled to opportunities, to develop and exhibit those qualities and to enjoy his natural human rights. When he has proved his superiority, he has proved a community asset his labor and his contribution to the development of the country are capable of being increased. Race correction by education is always the superior way, and not coercion. The superior way should be regarded with full humanity and treated with entire justice.

When there are enough jobs to go around in this country, when every man shall have opportunity to go forth in the morning to perform the work he is best fitted to do; and to receive a wage -which means to seize the opportunity to make a more question. The Negro question is largely one of unemployment and ofexperiences in handling the rewards of labor. The Negro needs a job, he needs a sense of industrially "belonging," and thus is ought to be the desire of our industrial engineers to supply.

With details that only a southwestern could know, Clement Wood tells a frank story of the constant intermingling of the races. A prominent man, which was omitted in slave days, has shrunk, he says, from an accepted custom to a wild cat. published, is the most costly form of industrial "organization" yet devised. The man, representative admitted in Congress, "they will soon be advertising for runaway slaves." Frego "Negro labor has not served the statute butter, although free men are still the many throughout the Union known many Alabamaans guess—that the average value per acre of farm land in Alabama dropped from $1.85 in 1860 to $3.67 in 19007. A more recent figure might show again an upward trend in the slave wage that the construction of the first forty years' wandering in the wilderness of black ennacipation. The Negro question permeates every phase of southern thinking. It wakes with the Southern white, whisks with him, keeps him from sleep; it abuses from the Southern black. It abuses from the Southern institutional system. How can in be otherwise, when a typical black belt court spends $17.35 on each white pupil, and ninety cents on each colored pupil? It determines Alabama's economic thinking. The per capita income of the Negro is that of the Negro, $34, or one-twenty-fifth as much. It splits the labor movement. Shall Negroes be admitted to unions, and how; and if not, what about strike time? Long before the country voted to go dry it saddled the Negro in the attempt to remove the South from the intollection of gin. It retarded woman suffrage. "Would you want your wife and daughters to be forced to lostla Negro washwomen, and worse, at the polls?" This, by political logic; since Negro men prominent at the polls as Eskimo pimens in Hades. It may retard any general exodus from Alabama to Heaven; at least until the unsullied Anglo-Saxons are assured that the Negro there will know his place. And, speaking of the Negro problem, the sex life of a whole South. White women of the atlites feline mame; white women of the slave master. "What is the souting to the Negro question?" "There's only one: Amalgamation." The man who said this to me was then an Alabama Congressman, conservative, no aluminist, who still stands high in state and nation. "But, above everything, don't quote me! My political life wouldn't be worth that if you did.... You see it." The man, it's going on. All the time. Rise up to statistics on the increase of mulattoes. It's a pity that it's the lowest elements of both races that unite; but... it's going on." How far was this Congressman right? A few scattered facts may materialize the problem. A Democratic candidate for governor was speaking at a rally in Montgomery, some twenty years ago. He finished his set speech, an exertion in the room, by shaking a leather, an finger at the actor. "What about your family of black bastards, Governor?" The distinguished Alabaman came forward to the challenge, and pointed an index finger straight at his questioner. "Two raised arm, and educate me, much more law, law, citizens of that, and that's a lann sight more than you've done for your black bastards!" There was wild applause; this, the interrupter was thrown out. The story spread from end of the state; the candidate was elected. Spoken like a true Southern man, the old-time Southern chivalry included this treatment of the black race. In what other section of the Union could a man have been elected to public office, after such a confession? In slavery, a state of concubinage between the master and comely slaves was permitted. The master was owner of the bodies of his slaves; cannot a man do what he will with his own? There are those who state that certain strong-minded white mistresses pay payment to their catholic spouses. Certain leading white men had two families, the white and the near-white. There was a State Senator who was halfbrother to a Negro door tender at the Capitol—a Negro so light that visitors mistook him, for the white man, to be the extent the better class of each race which intermingled. For years, in both races, the drift has been away from this. In many circles the white man who has a colored miltress, thereby has lost caste; the better class of Negroes no longer admit to the class of their miltress. Negroes who is a white man by birth. And yet, the mixing continues. There are still the double families in scattered locations. There is still the occasional case where the white woman accepts a Negro lover. Among them, the most difficult of approach, than Negro girls. This is less in the cities, and more in the country; for the cities offer white prostitutes, and in the rural districts loose white women are scarcer, and the difficult of approach, than Negro girls. The university is not untypical. It is located in a small town, Tuscaloosa, with few slack white women; and the Negroes are "easy." More than a dozen of the writer's classmates and this institution have explained to him the sexual experience had come with one of the willing Negro girls; the prevalence of the relationship there was a keyword.

GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS Recommends Daily Use of Magnesium To Overcome Trouble Caused By Permeating Food and Acid Indigestion. Gas and wind in the stomach accompanied by that full, bloated feeling after eating are almost certain evidence of the presence of magnesium in the stomach, creating so-called "indigestion." Acid stomachs are dangerous because too much acid irritates the delicate lining of the stomach and causes inflammation by secreting stomach ulcers. Food fragments and sour, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach, and hampers the normal functions of the internal or external organs, causing heart attack. It is the worst of folly to neglect such a serious condition, or to treat with ordinary soap and water. It is better to foot on the stomach acids. Instead get from any dumpty a few ounces of Bilirubin Magnesium sulfate of water right after eating. This will drive the gas, wind and bleat right out of the body, the stomach, the neutrals, the blood, the muscles. There is no sources or pain. Bilirubin Magnets (in powder or tablet form—never liquid) are used to increase the stomach inpressure to take care of the best conditions for stomach purposes. It is used by those with no more fear of indigestion. CHICKENS Guaranteed MEAT MARKET S. KNOTT Pork and Bacon PITTSBURGH, PA. pain! increase- ation.

JACK AND JESS MEET AFTER LAPSE OF YEARS NEW YORK, Jan. 18—Jess Willard and Jack Johnson met for the first time Friday night since Willard won the heavyweight title at Havana seven years ago. They ran across each other in the cafe at Madison Square Garden just before the man and woman entered Torriend HOLLAND SPORT AUTHORITY SUGGESTS WILLARD- HARRY WILLS FIGHT BY JAMES J. LONG Sporting Education at Sunnyside Sunnyside, where watery influences do Jess Willard or some other interested party exercise over a period of time, he persistently to advocate the staging of a return bout between Willard and Jack Dempsey, when he was playing with such a match would be ridiculous and that the public has absolutely no desire for it. Every time this guard hobbs but has a must-hod a opposition that speedily caused all talk of it to die out, but just as soon as he is able to oblige him with admissions that he was seriously considering bringing it off. Just why, unless Willard or Dempsey or some other person interested has some power, for it is evident to any Queenberry tyro that a man who was battered out of shape and stoppeth in 1918, and who was knocked down seven times in less than three minutes, proving no match for his tiger, lion, or monkey, has no chance in the world to cope with the same foeman four years later, when, by his own admission—possessing a very young age, as far out of condition as an idle man can get at that age when he hasn't entered a ring in four years, and about as fit for battle as Rip Van Winkle would be. It is an insult to the intelligence of the fight followers of the country to ask them to patronize such a match. It would owe little short of a swindle, and there is no reason in the world to accept as a dollar-grabbing, scheme. The excuse that there is no other applment available for Dempsey is that he has a bare-faced attempt to euchre a deserving fighter out of his rights. That fighter is Harry Wills. As long as the applment is not successful, theound in the neighborhood, it cannot be truthfully said that an opponent for Dempsey is lacking. Many ring followers are suspicious of him. Battling someone he became champion, Joker never drew any color line then. Why should he be permitted to get away with it now? He would make the bout even less attractive is the fact that it would be one of those "no-decision" affairs, making it possible for the public anything they cared to slip over. This, because it would have to be held in New Jersey, innapunch as New York's boxing court, to be commended—bar Willard from fighting in the Empire State on account of his age. These parties who persist is trying to foil the match on the public are now making what they are pleased to accept; permission on The baseball year of the history.

GREENSBURG Pa., Jan. 19—The As a matter of fact this is not a step for the safeguarding of the drawing powers of the Dempsey-Willard match. The promoters realize that a Dempsey-Willard match could not draw enough to pay for the printing of the tickets, but they hope to build it up by first sending one whom it might agree to leek. If they are sincere in desiring a real test, why are they not stop their talk about Floyd Johnson or Bill Brennan, neither of whom can be mentiled in the same breath with a champion right before the game, send Willard to Harry Wille? That would be a test both ways. If Willard won it would show his fitness to meet Dempsey beyond the room. If he would be in room for a further denial of his right to a match with the champion. It is what Dempsey and his business; associates are afraid of. For if Willis won, and it's a cinch that he wins, he will smash, the Willard money-making scheme but Dempsey would then be forced to fight the Negro. As with appearances that the last thing in, the world that Dempsey wants to do.

Grace Gruy De Long, 420 East Wayne street, Savannah, Georgia. Fair minded, white people at Madison Square Garden last Friday night when Floyd Johnson won from Bill Murray in the opinion that it was indeed a malice and men like Harry Wills of the roped arena simply because of the fear of a white champion, Wills is big a bungalow as any of the fighters who crawled through the ropes to be introduced: Jack Dempsey's nemesis is handcapped by a manager, who is not at all concerned about his protégé markame, as in the ring. Paddy Murray, a name in the ring, jokes among men of fist attentions in incintration. In one of the biggest fight clubs here in New York the white men informed "this writer" Mullins as if Rosso Simmons) that Mullins is as active as the existing state of affairs as the next one. There isn't the least bit of energy where Mullins is concerned it comes to bringing Wills to the foul play to follow Dempsey on his European tour with Harry driving many to the conclusion that Mullins is Wills' draw-back. Colored people in *Greater* New York would rather see a man like Colby Moore, manager of the cracker looking out for the interest of Wills than the present Irish-American Moore would at least go to the front entrance of a stone unburned to constantly remind an public of the injustice being done Wills by keeping him from fighting empathy. The forlore posted by Wills for the 1916 trial of the unburned be mullified when Jack Kearns ignores the Boxing Commission and signs an agreement for Dempsey to fight some man other than him. And yet they did not that this man, "Democracy" for which colored man fought, and died in France! Jack Johnson dropped in the other day to inform the writer that he will really start in the spring "somewhere in New Jersey" against one of the best fighters of the day. Jack's case is another sad reflection on the American white people. We insist that he committed no crime but was the victim of a frameup simply because the white ladies smiled upon him. We hold no brief for Jack, but we are of the opinion that he could make quite a few of the present crop of heavy weights look foolish before knocking them out. Here in New York, we have a very classy welter in the person of Panama Joe Gans. The readers of the Courier must see this fighter in action to know just what we mean when we say that he is one of the classiest of his kind produced in many years. The management of the Harlem Sporting Club is giving Panama Joe a chance about once a month to show his wares against the white boys and every time he starts his class is so apparent even the white brother applauds vociferously the decisions rendered in his favor. With Bennie Wright, a former St. Christopher athlete in charge of things at the Fifteenth infantry unit, she is matched with Moore, patrons of the boxing game are being supplied with some of the best bills nowadays. Manager Wright is bending every effort towards giving and from the remarks of the boxing team "Avenoen Afrique" he is succeeding wonderfully. I believe that the majority of the following of the poor indoor sport known as basket ball are desirous of getting the truth when they look over the columns of our papers, and with that idea in mind I am going to say that the two teams which are now holding the spotlight in the game, The Loenclid Club of Pittsburgh with "Cum" Posey in command and the Commonwealth Club of New York with the McMahon Brothers at the helm should meet if we are to judge the game. The McMahon brothers con among the followers of the game. The McMahon boys are ready to make any reasonable offer to the Pittsburg players but for some reason or other Cum" Posey insists on playing the game which from takes from the minds of intelligent people the issues at stake. Possey would have the world believe that he let "Specks" Moton out and that George Fillam came to Pittsburgh to again appear on the Loahel team. Nothing is further from the truth and it is unfair to the readers of the book to believe that George Fillam again appears on the Loahel team. Nothing is further from the truth and it is unfair to the readers of the book to believe that George Fillam again appears on the Loahel team. The truth as we know it and the truth of the whole matter is that Fillah was sent to Pittsburgh to bring Moton back to this city and he succeeds in doing so. With the sissesty of the claims of Possey are so apparent we wonder how this matter could have escaped the attention of the public. Moton has done a lot of this paper. In the first place, just a few weeks are Possey told the world that Moton was the best find that ever happened because Moton has seen fit to return to New York. Possey is trying to tell us that he is the worst find, and we should accept these things from our friend "Cum" in the face of the facts which are apparent. The statements anent Jenkins, Flall and the other players are also without any foundation and shows Posey that he is not the start of the basket ball season Posey came to our town seeking the services of these same men. This is not a wild statement but one made by the coach. The basket ball in this town, and that person is your humble servant. I do not say this with any attempt at hoistfulness but will be sustained by the lead coach and other centers. In behalf of the followers of basket ball in Greater New York, New Jersey and Jersey City. END COMES AFTER 50 SECONDS OF FIGHTING; VICTORY IS DECISIVE Pittsburgh Lad Shows Real Class in Defeating Johnny Black, Amateur Middleweight Titleholder (Special to The Pittsburgh Conrier.) ONTARIO, Canada, Jan. 18.—Bram! Crash! A lightning like left handed hook that twisted less than a foot and landed square on the chin of Johnny Black ex-soldier fighter and holder of the middleweight amateur championship, and Homer Robinson, Pittsburgh Thunderbok, had announced the title here in a light last Tuesday night. The fight last exactly fifty seconds and the patched hand captured witnessed the terrific onslaught of the colored lad from the "City of Smoke" were left awe-struck at the suddenness and completeness of the battle. Robinson entered the tournament under the colors of the Scholastic on the Pittsburgh, and was entered in the middleweight class. He fought under the espionage of "I" of C. and so impressive was his win, so cleancut and so decisive, that he lightened in his class "Refused me meat!" Those who turned out 'tuesday night' went home awa-struck after water Robinson in action for a brawl. Johnny Black was Robinson's first and only opponent. A fine and upstanding- chap he was. He curved a few solid right shoulders into the chest, and lifted muscles in front of him, and then— A. Clean Knockout Like a streak of lightning from the blue came a streak of brown leather, projected with the speed of a projectile leaving the barking mouth of a cannon, to the mark it sped, traveling less than a foot. It lingered squarely, on the mark set for it to land by its determined sender. The white boy's feet came off, the floor and the lil' it on his head and subsumed him about as much as the income tax does a resident at a poor house. The birds were twittering for Black before he bounced his head on the floor and when his bean rich canvas, he was wattled sound asleep. A clean, cold knockout, it was. Has Enviable Record. Has Robinson ind was the same year as the fighters entered in the states, last year, and made the most sensational showing of any of the fighters entered in the Nato tournament. He went to the fights in the middleweight class and to the semi-finals in the light-heavyweight class before counted out because of a bad hand. But Tuesday night, there seemed to be little or nothing the matter with the fighters, the dark head rests the same middleweight championship crown of Canada.

Hampion Defeated By Lincoln Tossers In Thrilling Game PHILADELPHIA, Pe., Jan. 18—A huge, gay crowd of basketball fans poured into Musical Fund Hall to witness the fast floor teams of Lincoln and Hampton here tonight. So packed was the house it required the services of cops to aid the two quintets to wedge their way to their dressing rooms one hour before the game. The big game in the East in collegiate circles. A fitting thing, far beyond a thousand, welcomed the opening contest. At 9:45 Lions and Seadiers were on the field, and Nichols for Hampton scored first with a long, beautiful field goal. After this Lincoln took the lead and retained it throughout the game. "Massy" Woods, leading in points, was the big star of the game. McNichols starred, for Hampton. Gunn, the Hampton ace and captain, although just off the slick bed, played a great game, caging on fund raiser. The Seasider Quintet, was good but lacked experience. The Lion five showed excellent team work in spots, but failed to use its opportunities. The first hindered: Lincoln Hampton 12; final score was Lincoln Hampton 18. MINGLING WITH THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ALONG BROADWAY Things continue to "happen" theatrically here. "How Come," the new show, written by Eddie Hunter, is entwining at the Grand Prix in Norfolk, where the production will be given its first tryout. Miller's "Liza" continues to please at the Sixty-third Street Music Hall, where the production will be the theatrical world. Here's a production which is kept going not on account of the work of any stars but simply by the wonderful manner in which the chorus shapes up. Of the musical production is above the ordinary and every week brings fresh praise for it. The "Broadway Rastus" which appeared at the Lafayette Theater for one night only was so rotten the management was forced to ring down the curtain near the theater to show the gallery to voice its disapproval in the usual way, we suffered the rare sight of witnessing the orchestra rising as one and hurling defiance at the performers with their work. It was a hard blow to the 'management and the stock of Irvin Miller in this neck of the woods has suffered a big drop. Lack of a creative work in "Liza" proves that our present day producers will not learn. Messrs. Shipp, Rogers, et al enjoy an enviable reputation and they will not come forth from their productions unless they are willing to the white men behind them are willing to be fair and produce the money necessary to bring out the shows in the right manner. The only way the white men, who have been sponsoring colored, shows have come among us seeking name and fame via the colored performer without the necessary money. This has been a chance and like-chances of this kind, most of these shows flirts. "Dumb Luck" is one of the outstanding examples of what I am trying to get at. Heated by two of the dancers now on the American stage, to wit Moss and Frye, "Dumb Luck" went out and lived in every way to the name of the people had to be through the gloom and the members of the "Stuffie Alone" company. They backed by the right people such is thing would never had gone away, and a good ago won a successful suit for money due him for his work in this same show.

COLORED GIRL AND WHITE LOVER ARE BOTH SLAIN the cases, their inquiries centering chiefly on the issue of jurisdiction. Only two expressions came from the bench, however, indicating the views of the Justices. Justice McReynolds issued limited injunctions presented in behalf of the condemned Negroes disclosed, in his opinion, a regrettable condition of affairs, but it seemed that proper action could be taken to their custody in a review of cases. Justice Holmes said the situation appeared to him to be one which required the Supreme Court, in the interest of justice, to inquire into jurisdiction without stopping at technical Strangling Drugs for Prisoners. Testimony was cited of two white men, members of the Sherif's pose, who swore that the white man for whose murder the Negroes, were convicted was killed by members of the mob, held with the murder. The brief STOVE LEAGUE BY DIZZY A PITCHING STAFF Gone are the days when pitchers could hold a one-run lead through nine innings. When Joe Williams, Redding, Tom-Williams, Whitworth, Blythe, and Goffin all bowled out their best, one run lead in the first inning would loom as big as a mountain to the opposition, through nine innings. With one swing of the last three days a one-run lead is either evened or surpassed, which has caused them to argue, and the present day pitchers are equal or superior to the pitchers of a few years back. Glancing over the records of the above mentioned star, who are fast waning, but are still in the game, one would think that the pitchers of a recent year, best known for their pitching skill, or had more pitches in recent years, do everything with a ball but make it talk. From observation, I believe the "old school" pitcher studied more how to foil a batman than the present-day pitcher. I believe the present-day pitcher can even selections to write an article on how to pitch and at last I've hit upon a key. Excuse the EGO which may appear in spots throughout this little narrative. I being a pitcher, can naturally write more freely about this one direct message game, and another, although I have a keen conception on how other positions should be played, which I will write about in another article. A pitcher's greatest asset is control, by control I do not mean be able to throw the ball close enough to the plate to be declared a strike in the middle of a fastball when deemed necessary or his shoulders or knees, as the case may be. Some pitchers, especially the present-day corps of hurriers, have little faith in themselves when it comes to throwing a curve ball, when they are in the "hole," consequently some good slugger gets a too hold and away up the pitch. Whenever a pitcher has to be signaled for a fast ball, when he should be throwing a curve ball, that pitcher is wild. MY SUCCESS AS A PITCHER In warming up properly, I have selfadmired curve balls during my fourteen years of pitching. I've never experienced any great difficulty in getting my curve ball over any time I desired. Having a young staff of pitchers at Pittsburgh last season, each was instructed to this method of loosening up prior to commencing a game, and not once that one taken out unexpectedly, although some were frequently out of control too. Each pitcher took the rubber he should pitch against himself and not the batter; every pitcher believes he can hit and if you doubt it, some pinch hitter in him at some critical period of the game can pitch at yourself expression means, what you can't hit another man can't hit. Whenever a batter is generally known to be weak on hitting a ball at a certain place, if thrown, that batter should be made to hit at a pitch at that particular groove each time he removes his bat from his shoulder. For illustration: batter up, he's weak on balls inside, don't continually throw balls on the inside but pitch too far outside for the batter to strike at, and at the same time the batter will invariably step in and when you catch him in the act of stepping-in throw him his weakness, the inside ball, which will be too close on the handle of the bat; vice versa for outside, high or low.

"Nor do I believe the best element in the South would be won by a surrender of our. Northern conception of such ideals to their social preferences. As proposed, it might be but a slight exclusion, the educational opportunity withheld, but it would be a great racial insult, undeserved, and it is too late in history to do such a thing, above all for Harvard, with her record, to do it. In less than a generation we should all be, ashamed of it." Father, Harvard Student. President Lowell's stand followed a request from Roscoe C. Bruce, a Harvard graduate, that a room be re-arranged for him, and a room for his son. Lowell's action, he claims, was prompted because social relations were liable to be strained. He said in part: "Wow! We had to him to force him and the white intrepid social relations that are not, or may not, be mutually congenial." Bruce, who lives at Kendall W. W.

What does matter is his policy has been inexcellent, cause irritating.

It was with attack of like character in Birmingham within the last few months.

When we few were deserted by almost every member of the membership of nearly two hundred brothers, W. G. Johnston, would say don't give up, there is a brighter day ahead. His words rang true, and today we have a lodge second to none. And it was the first time we would live to see his heart's great set desire, that we own our home. It seems that we do not appreciate the worth of a man, unless he is in the limelight as some supposedly great man. We forget that the server he amounts to very little in our mind. We forget that the silent observer is generally a deep-thinker. While the one, for a few minutes and his words are soon forgotten. Brother He was born in 1871. He was a member of Industry Lodge G. U.

Several years ago, colored girls in New York were given the opportunity to work in the service of the government as postoffice clerks. These girls quickly, show adaptability at sorting mail, and many of the workers in the service of the postoffice in New York today are colored girls. One of the officials said here recently, "Miss Cargill deserves every bit of the credit she is getting for her wonderful work. And we find it the rule, rather than the exception; that she is the clerks as are good, and in many insults, more accurate and speedy workers, than their white workers. Can Best Be Brough Individual s Walter A. May the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies; so too, other denominations and interests unite in some organization. "In order to be effective the Negroes must have an organization of their own. If the Urban League is to satisfy this need, it must be ready to answer any challenge as to its right to speak for the group, but the only answer that would be convincing would be that it has a membership numbered by the thousands and not by hundreds and that the members show their confidence by voluntarily assessing themselves with membership dues to carry on the work: "Every intelligent man . . . woman of the Negro race who is able to spare from $1 to $100 a year is urged to give this support to the 'Urban League. Whether the Urban League needs in this community will be determined solely by the number of members who enroll themselves each year. There is no other means of knowing whether your racial needs are being interpreted correctly or whether satisfactory results are being obtained." The first president of the Pittsburgh Urban League served in that capacity for three of her parents. Miss Rosewood matron of honor, appeared in great taffa with silver lace trimming. Miss Lucille Martin of St. Augustine, in her matron of honor, attributed to the work and his interest has brought to the League the support of many fine spirited white persons.

Mr. May's statement follows: "Some twelve million Negroes in the United States constitute a fact; some fifty thousand in Pittsburgh constitute a fact; some sixty thousand passing through our railroad stations in the past five years constitute a fact; thirty-three thousand Negro migrants settling in the Pittsburgh district constitute a fact. Lack of understanding, or training for the changed environment on the part of the Negro migrant is very generally a fact; inadequate housing is a fact. Upon these facts certain factors can be brought to bear: Educational opportunity, through church, school and neighborhood; an important factor; the quality of education afforded is a factor; opportunity for wholesome recreation is a factor; the conditions of industry is of these facts and Well I'll say! more are fondam the Jolly Journal health of the it! trial effer _____ "it's Auxiliary.

The Urban League assists directly in adjusting only a few of the above kinds of cases, but it maintains close co-operations with industrial channels through which can best and quickest results and will advise you of what is done with the cases referred to it. It is natural to want to help in such cases, but oftimes more harm than good is accomplished.

The greatest obstacle to our success as a race individually and collectively lies hidden in our failure to give due thought and significance to the power that resides in society. We have already translated means confidence in self. Self-confidence: without question, controls the realms of personal conviction, the supporters of which are thought and reliance, one being with the thoroughness with which his abilities and abilities. In order to briefly illustrate an instance of self-reliance and an evident result of its unquestionable power, let us for a moment center our thoughts on one outstanding character. Now, standing the fact, that the Hebrews were forced to endure suffering and persecution at the hands of King Pharaoh, they unlike their Nubian brother slaves constantly kept alive this thought, that with difficulty. If properly nourished and developed, resided the one true essential to their future success. And accordingly as they nourished and developed this thought greater headway was made in the complete protection, protection and inspiration and a drawing to a close much of the unhappiness inflicted upon them through injustice. This serves to assure us of a fact that where there is self reliance there is strength. Self-reliance when possessed by an equal people serves as a force that challenges the enemy; and, increase strength to the undertakings of personal desire and pursuit. To what extent these powers of self-considence will host succeed depends entirely upon the support given to them, through the channels of personally increase in the power of future conquest. Self-reliance is an enemy to fear. And like the Hebrews, if we the Negro race with our present disadvantages and limited opportunities will constantly keep alive in our minds the thought, the mind us also of the thought, the mind we developed and developed the true essential to our future success and happiness, greater strides can be made in the attainment of many of the things that lie within the realms of our possibilities.

As disgraceful is lynching, it seems to have encountered an eclipse in the form of the Mer Rouge murder, and the exposure of the Ku Kux Klan in Louisiana. While nothing but the mob organized and financed, he has worked more comment in the public press than in the bureau of two of its victims who recovered the body in Louisiana than the lynching of the 57 human beings who were fed to the same mob spirit during the year 1922. Of lynching is to be recognized as an evil less deserving of natural attention then the murder of two men by the Klan, then we about ready to accept murder by the lynchers as a milder crime than murder committed by the Klan. In other words, if the lynching seb will please operate without a mask or a hood, nothing more than the usual talk will be done about it. The distinction is the mask and the hood. Since the investigation of the Mer Rouge murder, the public press has devoted quite a little space to argument against the Klan. The argument against lynching, however, has not been more than the usual admission that lynching is a "national disgrace." A review of the latest issue of the Literary Digest will convince the most casual observer that the Klan lynchings and tormentations are objected to because the victims are largely white. The reason the Klan victims seem to be largely white is because the Klan mob does not have sufficient nerve to lynch or torment a white person without a mask or hood to disguise the identity of the gang. While to lynch Negroes is such an acceptable pastime, unmasked and unhooded men may size Negroes and lynch them without fear of detection or punishment. It is the same gang. The Klan takes a Negro and lynch him boldly, without hood or mask. There is no danger of mishment for lynching a Negro. But when a white man is about to be lynched, the mask and hood are used, because there is danger of mishment for lynching white persons. Consequently, the Mer Rourge murders are important. The victims were white men. The lynchers wore masks to hide their identity. If the same victim had been Negroes, there would have no masks worn at the lynchings, nor would there ever have any investigation of the Klan. But say this, because there were 57 murders committed in the United States last year, and not a single investigation was called. But no masks worn when these murders were committed. The Mer Rourge a white man, the mob is the most Angust. The mer Rourge is investigation. If the mob wears no investigation mask, Negro, the murders are called a mob, and the mer Rourge lynching; and there is no investigation. FRANCE ENTERS RUHR Backed by Belgium and Italy, France has moved her troops into the Ruhr region. This ends the speculative comment all over the country, and reduces the threat to a fact. The comment from now until something happens can not begin with the monotonous "if France enters the Ruhr." France is in the Ruhr region, according to promise. It is very interesting to note the change in talk since France entered the coal region to collect reparations. There was much talk about what the United States would do, "if France entered the Ruhr." The only thing this country has done is to recall the thousands of more troops of ours stationed on German soil. If any one thinks the troops were removed to frighten France, the words of Senator Pepper, of Pennsylvania removes 'any such night. The Senator said in an address in New York City last day: "I have no disposition to form judgment as to its outcome," said Senator Pepper in reference to French occupation of the Ruhr, "but I say this: knowing as we do, through what things France has passed, how she passed through tribulations and washed her robes in blood, it is easy to see how the flaming spirit of the people has at last become too impatient longer to wait while others try to solve her problems, and she has taken the solution of them into her own hands. "What America can do and how she shall do it can better be determined when the air has been cleared by what will follow from France's occupation of the Ruhr. For the air will be cleared." Senator Pepper knows what trials the French have endured. It is common history known by every school child that Germany has invaded France three times. It is known how the Germans made France pay the "war pot," and how the French people sacrificed to pay. The horrors of the last war are fresh in the minds of the people of the world. And, last, but not least, the terms of the Versailles Treaty provide for just what France has done, in the event the Germans failed to pay the reparations. Germany is in default. All have voted that, but Britain. France is doing what the Allies agreed should be done, if Germany failed to pay. All this talk about militarism is bunk. France has as much right to live as Germany. The Germans have never had a house burned, nor a bridge destroyed, nor a factory closed by the World war. Why as much bunk? WHO ARE LEADERS? Since Kelly Miller suggested a Conference of Leaders, we have had any number of inquiries as to who shall be called. "Who are they?" ask some. While others content themselves with saying: "I'm no leader." It goes well that saying that leaders have little opportunity in this life is followed. The following declares the leadership. Where there is no following, there is no leadership. The following does not indicate whether the leadership is good or bad. It simply declares the presence of leadership. The grave task of those who undertake the untangling of our present middle, is the separation of the bad leaders from the good. In other words, the separation of the sound leadership from the mound. Differences of opinion will remain with us always. We need not expect to "corner all Negro opinion." This could not be done. We can, however, collect the sound opinion of the race and snite it into a speaking force. This is what must be done, if we expect to stop the present dissipation of energy, and the present exchange of ugly personalities. As we are today, our group is supplied with almost every variety of treatment needed for the ills we have. If we have "brain-flag," one or two doses of The Messenger right to start our brain cells instantly. If we have too much radiation, one dose of "Opportunity" will reduce us to a conservative sense of mind. If we become too hilarious, and life begins to appear too racy and promising, take one issue of "The Crisis" and enough of the "Blues" will be injected into the system to give one the most injected view of life imaginable. For almost any nihilism, we have the remedy. The reasons responsible for these "literary companions" are a collection of such leaders, and out of the mass let us have a program suited to the needs of the masses, and once this program is accepted as the 'best', all else must be abandoned. SQUARE Ben Davis of the Atlanta Independent divides the Negro leaders into five distinct groups as follows: The Tuskegee group, meaning Moton, et al; the Monroe Trotter group, the Aristocratic group, including Emmett J. Scott, et al; the DuBois group and the Line Johnson group. Thanks, Ben, for showing us who starts all our troubles. It begins to look as though the leaders are going to spend the next half century "matching wits" to see who is the brightest, while the race slips back a few pegs. Let's see—a Conference of Negro leaders—just what state could we rent big enough to hold 'em? LEST WE FORGET By KELLY MILLER Harvard University has declared her colors. The white flag of race surrender has been hoisted over America's most ancient institution of learning. Founded in the name of Christ and the church, she has become the advocate of caste and color. After an existence of nearly three hundred years, on the basis of democracy and Christianity, she has finally taken a decided stand of reaction a. d. represency. The implacable enemy of democratic equality has invaded the sacred precepts of fair Harvard. Education has capitulated to color. Politics, economics, religion have long since made their peace with the God of race prejudice. Education was the longest to hold out. The Negro can only denounce and condemn. He has little or no power to overcome. The decision is clear, clean cut and climacteric. Roscoe Bruce represents the highest type of Negro opportunity and culture. The son of a senator, thoroughly educated from the ground up, every inch of him a gentleman polished to the nail. A son of Harvard, he desires generation continuance through his equally promising son. His Alma Mater shuts the door of hope in his face. The more money an institution secures the less democratic is it prone to become. Harvard has spent millions of dollars on her new Freshman dormitories, in which all Freshmen are compelled to room. But the Negro cannot in room there on account of his race, therefore a Negro cannot be a Freshman at Harvard. Prejudice, however is never rigidly logical. Special dispensation to room elsewhere would doubtless be granted the Negro applicant. The reason alleged is indeed flimsy. The University claims that it cannot force its students to room in a dormitory with a member of the Negro race. An institution that cannot enforce its own regulations thereby, confesses its inherent fatal weakness. How will Harvard compel the races to sit in class together if the whites object? How can she enforce the coeducation of the Jew and Gentile if the more numerous race protests? If carried to its ultimate conclusion the University would be wholly without power to enforce its own regulations and must deteriorate in authority and prestige. It is perfectly obvious that the department of logic at Harvard stands greatly in need of strengthening. Negroes will of course continue to attend Harvard under humiliating conditions. To deny or withhold one one-hundredth of one's rights or privileges it entitles the enjoyment of the remaining ninety-nine "Fair Harbor" is no longer fair to the Negro. We may indeed be thankful that a few consistent friends remain. We are told that a graduate of the class of eighteen-sixty made the most emphatic protest. He must the spirit of his day and generation which differs so radically from our own. All have not yet bowed the knee to Baal. The idolatry of race has not yet completely supplanted the true religion of humanity. The announcement is deeply significant to the Negro. It completes the circle of segregation. It vindicates and justifies the South. It all but unifies the white race in the bond of iniquity. Every institution will quote the example of Harvard when the Negro student becomes claimant for equal treatment. But let us not only denounce and condemn but let us also study and understand. The Negro is being penned in residential areas in all of our large cities with as much ease as a herdsman herds his sheep. Go to, says a little group of real estate manipulators in Washington, the capital of the nation, let us confine the Negro to certain restricted areas. They take down the real estate map and mark out mute bounds setting the limits of our habitation. We walk in as unconsciously and as unconcernedly as dum driven cattle. A hundred thousand educated Negroes show little or no power of resistance to the compelling force of race prescription. We read in the Scripture: 'In vain does the fowler spread his net in the presence of any bird.' And yet the black is caught in the smears of the net spread under his every eye. What is true of Washington is equivalent to every city in land. We went to the Supermarket and he did declare void certain ordinances of segregation. We justly rejoiled at the victory. And yet segregation has abstained no whit as result of that decision. It goes on just as effectively without as with it. The race is being shut off and shunted in all relations of life. The Harvard incidence but sets us to thinking more keenly. We must gain self knowledge. There must emerge a race consciousness. We must understand our own strength and weakness, so that we may endure with fortitude that which we cannot resist. The demand for an all race conference becomes more imperative as the days come and go.

The investigation of the Mer Rouge伯罗谴 bids fair to expose mob leaders, at least in Louisiana, if not in the whole South. The investigation of the machine of the machinery of prosecution, if the southern press is to be taken seriously. The following is the expression of a New Orleans paper, "The States." This paper thinks the whole case should be taken into another section of the state for trial. We read Judge Coco ought to insist, if he is correct in saying that the State can get a change of venue, that the trial should be held in the city rather than the city's redemption of cruelty a hero of the war and an estimable citizen—because they douse to oppose the vultures of a secret organization—shall be held in some other parish. For, be it from The States to impugn the integrity of the people of Morehouse. But If these trials are held in Bastrop (the county or parish seat) there is the risk that innocent man, under the pressure of the state laws, will be convicted, or guilty men, under the same conditions, go free. In other words the local conditions are such that no twelve citizens of Morehouse should be shouldered with the responsibility of rendering a verdict in these cases. Only & disinterested Jury should sit upon them. Another view of southern sentiment may be gathered from what the Norfolk, Virginia, Pilot has to say about the offer of the Klan to join in the murder. In the case of the Klan, if it is shown to have been responsible for the murder does not sound good to the Norfolk editor. He says: It is a melancholy force. Two men are bogged and shot to death. Four months later the organization that feels itself under suspicion has been arrested. The man who will lift its charter. Let the relatives and dependents of the dead men be thereby comforted. Their men will have been drawn and quartered, but the Klan will have sat in judgment. They will lift the local Klan's charter. In the name of God, what a mockery! The Omaha Bee sees the possibility of a spread of the practice if this kind of thing is not stopped. And it will do the Klan no need to repudiate the crime. The public will always blame the Klan for the death of Daniels and Richards. The Philadelphia Public Ledger says: "Mining the Mer Rouge is a warning to the country and the Ku Klin Klan. Mr. Klin will understand that this thing which had become inevitable in Morehouse Parish is inevitable any and everywhere that masked men become a law unto themselves. Gully or not, the Ku Klin must bear the blame at Mer Rouge. Gully or not guilty, it will get the blame for similar terror that has railed to its head head. There is no excuse for this hateful thing." Turning to the Negro press we find the indignation of a people who love and order and loom with disapproval upon any form of lawlessness. The Wilmington Advocate reports that following the killing, women outraged, children tortured, law set at naught—all this is to be expected if there is not a stop put to the growing evil of the Klan and all that it means. The country was warned four years ago; it is being warned every week by the Negroes, the Jews, the Catholic reaction against all members of society. Mer Rouge is a symbol, a terrible warning. Let the mation take heed it is too late and all the land is a huge Mer Rouge, submerging law and order and decency and the hard won civilization of the western world. And we gather other reports from the Negro press, which after all, is devoting as much space to the Klan as the white press. We have some data which shows that the Klan is more aggressive for it. That bids fair to disclose the questionable activities of some newspapers in this country. The Webster letter is an eye-opener. Read it: Mr. J. O. Wood. Editor The Searchlight, Atlanta, Ga. My Faithful Klanman: King Kleagle Whitney of Massachusetts says to you "hot dog" and greetings and best wishes. If you are not mad at me for my like to ask the question when he news item should be, however, to TIDE OF COUPLY answer at this himself, the same question. Every Klanman should read it and be able to quote the high spots. If you have not read it, get Dr. Mahoney to dash an article for you. Do not mention the fact that Stoddard is a Klanman, but give him a good boost. President Harding speaks highly of the book, and a new one is in process of making, which will also be a good Klan argument. But get thirsty, but be good to give a good article on this book. It will go to me, and follow my suggestions, when they are worthy, will sit down some day and write you a nice long story of my life, which you can print in the Searchlight. It would be the making of your paper, over night your circulation would jump to millions, so bear this in mind. Yours in the sacred unfailing bond, (Signed) F. S. WEBBSTER Many of us remember the "Rising Tide of Color," and what a stir it caused the country over. We did not think at the time that the Klan was backing the author. We did not think that Marcus Garvey was on the payroll of the Klan. But the time was out. Marcus Garvey had a great task before him to explain the following letter to A. Philip Randolph last August, especially since the murder of Dr. Eason by supposed Garveyites who were afraid Eason would expense Garvey's relations with the Klan. Read the letter and decide for yourself. Listen Randolph— We have been watching your writings in all your papers for quite a while but we want you to understand before we act. If you are not in favour of your case, you can be with our yours. There is no space in our race for you and your creed. What do you mean by giving us a nigger? Do you know that o.d.r organization is made up of all whites? If you are not in the race, you can be movement, you can be more which Randolph opposed bitterly. And the reference made in the lines below is "a sample of our goods" refers to the human hand which was sent to Randolph. The letter continues: Now, I have a sample of our good work, so watch your step or else you. Now let me see your name in your nigger improvement association as a member, paid-up too, in about one week from now. Don't worry about lynching to South. If you were here you wouldn't talk about it. Now be careful how good publish this letter in your magazine or we may have to send you hand to some one else. Don't think we can't get you and your crowd. Although you are in your work, you will be in the Georgia. If you can't unite with your own race we will find out what you matter with you all. Don't be selfish. Give your friends a tip. K. K. K. It is significant that the above letter tore a New Orleans post mark. D. Eason was slain there. Notwithstanding the exposure of this letter by Mr. Randolph, Negroes continued to flock to Garvey and give lectures on his work. Preachers and other wiliings in this country, were, victims of this scheme of the Klan to get the Negroes out of this country through Garvey and his organization, according to reports. But it remains for The Belringer, a new magazine, devoted to the abolition of Your Klan, to give us the hottest shots yet directed at the headed organization. The Belringer comes right out, without head or mask. It issues its challenge thus: challenge you to a test of strength. We are as a David approaching a giant Gulah, armed with only a knack to our cause. If your rule of the bomb, the midnight torch and the assassin's dagger can prevail against us then truth and justice and decency have no place in this land and we shall willingly deliver to you your demands. We denounce you a pack of mongrels who have draped yourselves in the habitities of a dead hero. Every southern gentleman worthy of the name must apit upon you for the desecration of our only death. In the days when chivalry and courtesy were still extinct the yeoman would not have been permitted to hold the bride of a Clansman's steel. term "miger" in a tone that not only goes coefe offeet to our colored teachers, but massacred the principal and teachers. the mutual sympathy and consideration that we try to promote here and that should characterize all public discourse of course, tolerate oppression of theatrists, such as the one in question.
