Illinois Governor Signs Bill For Soldier Shaft Monument to Cost $15,000 When Completed, to Be Located in Heart of Chi- CHICAGO, Ill., June 28—(By A. N. P.)—Governor Len Small signed the bill passed by the State Legislature appropriating $15,000 for a monument to colored soldiers killed in the World War last Friday afternoon. The Governor said it was the only bill for a monument he had signed this session. The memorable occasion took place in the Eighth regiment army with a number of prominent colored citizens present. A plan was discussed whereby colored citizens would augment the amount given by the State so that the monument may be one of the most striking on the boulevard. It is to be located at 35th and Grand Boulevard in the heart of the colored district. Among those present were Edward H. Wright, Second Ward Committeeman, who acted as master of the court.

SATURDAY, JUNE a FIRES SEVEN BULL IN SWEETHEART Race Orchestra In Florida Town Hides from Mob Musicians Forced to Stay in Theater All Night, While "King Lynch" Rules. On June 6, when a local mob decided to relieve the sheriff of his duties in connection with the apprehension and punishment of an unknown murderer in West Balm Beach, Florida, Joe Jones and his "Syncopated Syncopators" as a matter of precaution remained in the Lyric theater all night, rather than venture on the streets to go to their respective stopping places. Local officers prevented any general hostilities toward Negroes by ordering all public places closed and directing the Negroes to remain off the streets. A Negro suspect was lynched and several whipped; but none of the performers were molested. They spent a very unpleasant night, however.

SCOTT, Ala., June 28.—Approximately 42 colored families have left cotton plantations at Scott during the past week, according to a statement made by Dr. G. H. Estes, one of the leading cotton planters of Pula-ki county and local business man. The situation has become so acute as a result of the exodus of the cotton growers that local cotton planters are trying to negotiate with the chambers of commerce at Chicago, St. Louis and other large northern cities to secure, if possible, the return of the workers and their families in special trains, Dr. Estes said. Indreds Flock To Divine Healer Poor crop conditions resulting from cold weather, heavy rain and floods, as well as the inducement of high wages in industrial centers of the North, are responsible largely for the general departure of the negroes, Dr. Estes said. The conditions at Scott is such at present that cotton planters are facing the prospect of being without labor to care for the crop unless the migrants can be replaced or induced to return to their homes. Free transportation, it is thought by leading planters of the vicinity, will be a strong inducement to many of the workers. While the time is coming, the land is being performed.

Wednesday accepted the sufficiency of divine punishment and freed a woman accused of murder. Laura Johnson, 26 years old, was led into court, to face a charge of sticking a knife through the heart of William A. Branch, April 8, when it is explained, he attempted to attack her. Since her arrest on that date she has gone blind. "God has meted out a punishment to this woman greater than we could give her. We suggest that the case be dismissed," was the suggestion by prosecuting attorneys when the case was called. "Young lady," the court said, "you will never see to murder another man. God has seen to that. You are freed." The young woman was led to dark freedom by the bailiffs. nic Reigns s Women Leap From Building nonshine Still" May fire Caused Blaze in fire Story Fire Trap.

RANGOON, June 28. — Slavery and human sacrifices are still going on in some of the mountain districts of Northern Burma, according to the annual report of the commissioner of the northeastern frontier, published by the government here. It is in the territory known as the Naga Hills that the sacrifices take place. Attempts by the government to eradicate these practices have not entirely succeeded. The redemption of slaves intended for sacrifices has only resulted in the use of money saved for a bigger and more expensive sacrifice later on. By a recent government investigation, it was discovered that the number of human sacrifices in the Naga Hills is never less than from six to ten a year. The victims usually are both boys and girls, kidnapped from Assam, although any kind of available slaves may be included in the slaughter. One dark-skinned girl, who already had been earmarked for sacrifice by the Nagas was recently released through government action. At the time of the last government estimate there were 271 slaves in Hkmapti, against 373 in the previous year. A few deaths of slaves had occurred, but the reduction was mainly due to slaves redeeming themselves or being released voluntarily by their owners. The report mentions several cases in which natives were enticed by the Nagas to enter the country to work as blacksmiths and subsequently were seized and sold as slaves in the Hukong valley. Some of these men had settled down with wives provided for them and had no desire to be liberated. A certain number, however, appealed to British officials, who were able to procure their freedom. In addition to those found among the Nagas, seven cases of human slavery were discovered among the Hukong Kachins. Mother White, Babe Colored, Court Hears However, Evidence Proves Insufficient, to Convict Alleged Father of Crime PRISONER GOES FREE (Courier-Afro News Service.)z BALTIMORE. Md., June 28- Douglass Smith, Green Spring Valley, charged by Ollie Myers, a young white girl of the same place with having committed rape upon her in June, 1922, and who was brought up for trial in the Baltimore County Court at Towson Monday, was released on a stet, the evidence in the case being insufficient for conviction. Smith, against whom the charge was brought by the girl after she had given birth to an alleged colored child, and the girl who accused him were not put upon the stand, but the allegations set out in the indictment charged him with criminally assaulting her in a room in the house in which they were both employed in June, 1922. The Girl's Story According to the story told by the girl, the alleged crime took place while she and Smith were employed by a man named Wagner, who conducts a sporting goods store on Baltimore street, but who lives in Green Spring Valley. She alleged that in June, 1922, Smith dragged her from the automobile into the house and carried her up to the second floor, where the crime was committed. No complaint, however, was made at the time of the alleged assault, and it was only when the child was born that she charged him with being its father and with rape. This was on March 9, 1923. When brought up before the Baltimore County Grand Jury Smith denied the story of the girl, but the age of the girl being in question he was held for rape. Employer Got Lawyer Mrs. Julia S. Cotter, white, for whom Smith had previously worked, interested herself in the case and at first secured the services of a white attorney. This lawyer then turned the case over to Attorney George L. Pendleton, who defended Smith until the stet was entered. The child has been placed in the St. Elizabeth Home for Colored Children. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., June 28.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER In Disast Around Chicago By EUGAR G. Staff Corres No Color Line in Sports Last week it was Dehart Hubbard who had a big part of the spotlight in the dailies. This week the progress of the Illinois State open Colored tennis championship on the Prairie Tennis Club courts is being closely followed from day to day. Two weeks ago our attention was called to the article'on the progress of tennis in the United States among colored people and a full account of the National tournament held in Philadelphia, which appeared in the Spauldings 1923 Tennis Guide. Now the papers are full of the gift of Mr. L. B. Isly, president of the Thomas E. Wilson Sporting Goods Company of Chicago and New York, with branches in all the larger cities, to the American Tennis Association of a beautiful challenge trophy to be awarded to the winner of the National Colored Men's singles championship, to be held in Chicago, August 19-26. We will say that is not only a very commendable appreciation of the athletic accomplishments of our group, but marks progress in the promotion of closer contacts and better understanding. Chicago leads in the field of tennis as well as baseball. We have not yet heard the New York writers contend for Miss Isadore Channels' berth in the No. 1 A. T. A. rating, even if some of the others of the first ten New York women were not satisfactorily listed in the 1922 tennis groupings. We have eno Shady Best Golf and Country Club yet, but we will bet on our players, including the latest nephyte, Frank Young of Chicago Defender leanings. Victor Fremont Lawson Honorable Victor Fremont Lawson, publisher and editor of the fairest daily publication in Chicago and incidentally the Chicago Daily News is the most widely read by the colored people as well as the white people of all of Chicago's great newspapers, has been honored with another degree from the famous Michigan University, placed in the Hall of Fame by great athletes as well as scholars and business generals. Not the least among these is our own Dehart Hubbard, to whom too much credit cannot be given, for he was the first lad of color to receive the cherished "M" of the great school, which has stood high in and out of the conference. And Hubbard is backed by men at Michigan University like Victor Fremont Lawson, who knows no man by his color, but rather admire him enough to give him an opportunity. Mr. Lawson, an authority on newspaper building and success, has never permitted a segregated special race column to appear in his Chicago Daily News; but a colored reporter has been a regular member of the staff for years at an equal salary to all other employees. In another article we will tell you how Mr. Lawson worked with the generous and Hon. Julius Rosenwald for greater educational advantages for Colored people in the South, and the splendid assistance of both Mr. Lawson and Mrs. Lawson in helping to solve the grave social problems of the race here in Chicago and abroad. There Will Be No Riot in Chicago The members of the fourth estate, unable to force the annual summer street car strike are not the less busy, making spurious riot headlines to further upset the already too sensitive mental balance of the underworld whose usual resorts were abolished by the new administration with the closing of the cabarets with its attendant night life, which the papers said before the ban, if continued, would end in another race conflict. Now they are closed and the same dailies and weeklies tell us this vigorous vigilance of the police department in seeing that the vice gang desist are loud in their fearful apprehension of dire results. Apparently the wish is father to the thought—the brother is a funny animal, especially in traditionally liberal Chicago, when you ask him if he believes in social equality per se (in social intermingling with the other race) he will answer, No, emphatically to the man downtown, but the quickly comes back on the South Side and asks how come this breaking up of the mingling of the races in the cabaret? Still these same leaders will tell you. I think the cabarets ought to be closed, but—I just guess there are others who JACKSON UND Successor to Ho 1212 WYLIE A Phone—Grant 9355 Night Call— JACKSON UNDERTAKING CO. Successor to Howard E.

Human nature ha sslot improved much.

There was no street car strike and there will be no race riot if the newspapers, leaders and others busy themselves helping the ten thousand newcomers to become 'adjusted who arrived in Chicago last week. Ex-Mayor Thompson Returns After a vacation in the West and a successful fishing trip, the most talked-of Mayor Chicago ever possessed, I guess, "Big Bill" Thompson, arrives home just when Governor Smill closes shop in Springfield and comes to Chicago, presumably to sign soldier bonus certificates. When I see Alderman Louis B. Anderson, the ex-mayor's Council floor leader, or Bishop A. J. Carey or the astute and Honorable Edward H. Wright, I am going to get them to come out of that clam-like silence. What is the "dope" boys, for 1921? The people are a little sensitive and touchy for a number of reasons besides the heat and it's going to be hard to put over anything on them. The banquets went big, but our impression is that Alderman R. R. "Fighting Bob" Jackson's accepted token of appreciation in the form of a Hudson solar, will be more lasting than the people's enthusiasm for any man or set of men or any measures not 100 per cent open and above board. The people want a new deal. Oppressive Heat Waves A real hot stake has about driven the boys off of 35th and State and all the fellows who are usually behind locked doors near 36th on Grand boulevard were all out on the porch the other night trying to get a line on the new faces up and down the "prom." Daylight saving makes this light occupation possible until nearly 10 P. M., and then as the lake breeze drives the heat away the boys beat it inside the club. They usually emerge one at a time up until about 4 A. M., when the winners call it a night. The Appomattox Monthly could give us names, no doubt, but then that would rob "Nosey," of Whip fame. Canton Urban League Moves Into New Quarters. CANTON, Ohio, June 23—The offices of the Canton Urban League which were formerly on 13th Street have been removed to 809 8th St. S.

The letter says in part: "It is hard here. The colored people are afraid to do what they can. They are white-capping colored people every chance they can get. I know of two cases recently. They whipped a boy about running away. He did not owe them a penny. Whipped a colored preacher last night for nothing. The police arrest the colored people here and turn them over to the mob. Is there any remedy for it? "The colored people are leaving here bad, bad. They have all just about left the farms and now they are leaving their towns."

Hooper, a prominent business man, is very dark complexioned. (Readers can take their guess why.) "What are you doing with a white woman at this hour?" demanded Mr. Cracker Constable. Hooper quickly asumed that an attempt was being made to kidnap his wife, and opened fire, wounding the constable, it is hoped, mortally. The constable fired back, Hooper dropped dead. His wife is now demented and it is feared she may never recover her mind. Insane Patient Is Slain by Attendant BALTIMORE, Md., June 28—WILLIAM H.

Migration News a Northern T Result In Of Many New Market for Negro Talent and the Organiza- tion of Two Theatrical Circuits Seen in New Movement. By J. A. JACKSON Performers and those interested in the show world have just begun to notice the probable effects of the migration of wage-earning Negroes to Northern industrial centers. The first inhabitant has, besides the diminished patronage in a number of Southern cities. In some few instances theaters have actually been obliged to close. Skipping the closed town has added to the transportation costs of shows and acts, and reduced the route by one or more weeks. A more pleasing outgrowth of the migration is the promise that is held out for the establishment of theaters in Northern centers of Negro population that has heretofore been too small to be considered by show interests catering to Negro patronage. Within the past three months several different theatrical groups have set about investigating the possibilities in the towns whose Negro population has been augmented by the migrants. Contrary to the general impression, these Negroes are not going entirely to the big cities. Many are going to the smaller towns. Bridgeport and New Haven, in Connecticut; Haverstraw, N. Y.; Bethlehem, Alcoona, Johnstown and Farrell, Pa.; Akron and Youngstown, in Ohio; Gary, Ind., and the very best theater, purify the establishment of a Colored theater. There are many other similar cities. The most natural result will be that it will be possible to find a big theater for Negro talent. These towns will provide the needed jump between the already established theaters in the big Northern cities. All indications to the organization of a new circuit with Washington and Louisville as the southernmost cities. ATTENTION! Schenley Heights In the district named above, on the date below, John T.

Long Johnnie Lee Long, owner of the "Shu-Shu-Shu" company, announces that the poor struggling boy that he describes himself will put on another show. It will be called the "Dixiana Revue" and will be equipped, as is his other company, with special, scenery and electric effects. With two shows he is on his way to becoming a magnate. Wish him well with both of them. As a substitute for this plan, it may develop that the powers that be in the Colored show world may get, together and out of the confusion that seems imminent. will two circuits, one comprising the smaller houses, and the other theaters of sufficient size to support dramatic shows, musical comedies and the vaudeville units headed by draw, name acts. Should either of these come to pass the producers will be encouraged to continue producing for the Colored market, for with enough weeks in these houses and the available time in the other theaters that have recently come to look with favor upon Negro talent, assures them of a reasonable run for their shows with a chance to get off the nut. There is a lot doing among promoters of Colored enterprises, but most of the fellows are trying to keep under cover. However, their own letters are scattering the stories of the various efforts that are being made to control the Negro business. We can't predict results, but whatever may happen will help, inasmuch as anything that tends to keep the actors of the race employed is helpful.

Rudolph Valentino Disappoints Crowd After arrangements had been made for a special performance for colored patrons at the Hyman Auditorium on June 13, Rudolph Valentino disappointed about 3,500 of them by abruptly leaving the city of New York for a engagement that had been advertised at the Bijou theater, a colored house. Just why this engagement fell through is not explained.. Entertains Prisoners [Image of a person wearing a dark coat with a fur collar, standing in a room with a window and a fireplace.

Effort Of Race Carnival Show Brings Praise The Jones-Jenkins Carnival Co., the pioneer Colored organization of its type, is but a month old in actual operations, yet the page has been the recipient of more than a half dozen letters of approval concerning the attraction. Henry Hartman, band director and the representative of the Baltimore Afro-American at Rockville, Md., was the first to place the stamp of approval on the little organization of Negro showmen and their effort. Robert Cross, secretary of the National Association of Colored Fairs, who visited the outfit in Washington, in the interest of the nearly 60 colored fairs who comprise the organization, reported favorably upon the carnival, and recommends it to the different Colored fairs. Class, style, courtesy, deportment and talent compares favorably with any, says Mr. Cross. He admits that the show is not so large as most of the established concerns in the field. The youngest man, while the player has declared that the deportment was such as not to require any of the services his office affords to malefactors. And Charles A. Oliver, Grand Traveling Deputy of the I. B. P. O. Elks of the World, advises that he inspected the shows when they played under the auspices of Ancient City Lodge, 175, at Annapolis, Md., with the result that he recommends it to the order at large, and does it on the official stationery of his office. This carries out the assurances given by Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson, given to Mr. Dudley during the promotion days of the project, that if the shows were of standard caliber that they would be off. Both sides have made good, and the Elks of the World will hereafter have an attraction at their disposal that is of assured merit. GOOD HEALTH! GOOD LUCK! PROSPERITY!

Former Stage Star, Now Race's Best Costumer Has Designed and Made Some of Most Famous Dresses to Have Appeared on Stage—Made "Radio Gown." Ten years ago Jennie Hillman decided to quit the profession, and as she did not want to settle down in her home town in Ohio, she started a dressmaking career in New York, catering especially to the performers with whom she had worked for so long. Today Jennie has a history of achievement in her chosen line that would be a credit to a much more potentious establishment than her Harlem home and studio appears to be. She has declined several offers to lend her name to Broadway concerns. In these ten years she has dressed a lot of New York ladies in exclusively designed gowns. Her greatest achievement in that direction being the Radio gown, prize winner at the Tattler Style Show last winter. Her products have been ordered and shipped to all parts of the country. Her credit standing with the big department stores and the dealers in theatrical costume supplies is virtually unlimited. She has done whole shows for Straus and Franklin, Charles Barton, Gus Hill and other big burlesque producers. She made the whole equipment for the unfortunate "Dumb Luck" show and press comment on these gowns in New England papers was most favorable. N. S. Feldman has had a number of his girl acts dressed by Miss Hillman, and Joe Sheltell is proud of the work she delivered to his revue. Leona Wilson, Ethel Waters, Evon Robinson, Ethel Williams, Jerry Brown, Margaret Lee, Sarah Martin, Margaret Lee of the "Liza" show; Lottie Gee of the original "Shuffle Along"; Nellie Brown and Theresa West are among the stars whom she has gowned. For years she designed and made the "Smart Set" costumes. Miss Hillman says her original capital was five dollars. Be that as it may, it would take a lot of added ciphers to express the value of the business her efforts has built up. Varnell's Review STAR THEATER, Shavepeport, La.

Famous New York Club Provides Inmates of Sing Sing Prison With Evening's Entertainment. On June 14 Charles Gilpin, the star of "Emperor Jones," headed a group of artists who went from the C. V. B. A. club in New York up to Sing Sing prison and presented the unfortunate with an evening's entertainment that was very much appreciated, if one may judge from Gilpin and Mr. Slater by the Mutual Welfare League of that institution. Here are some extracts from the rather long communication: "It is with a decided sense of inadequacy that . . . I attempt to thank you for your entertainment last evening. I feel that the men very audibly registered our appreciation and gratitude in the great applause. To me, what seems more important than the entertainment itself is the spirit in which it was given. The thought that lies behind the music, the pleasure and please and brighten our hours. The kindly feeling and interest toward us, is what counts. "You gave us something of laughter, something of music, something of dance, and something of yourselves to take back to our cells with us. Something for mind overhauling. . . I wish it had been possible to have talked with you. There is much that I would liked to have told you. You would be interested in some of the things the men, many of them colored, are doing to better prepare themselves for life upon release. For would be the year of our commercial school, or year of our repairing plant, out music school, our band and orchestra hours . . . and the fires of ambition that makes the deserving men fit for decent lives after leaving here. ... Please pass to Mr. Slater and the others our sincere thanks and good wishes for your success. . . Merritt T. W., Director of Entertainments." Charles S. Gilpin acted as master of ceremonies and read part of the lines from "The Emperor Jones." Others in the party were Billy Conway and his Creole Quartette; Billy Mitchell, the boy the insnake met; the Boy Luggy Tril; the Moose, Blanch Levy and Mabel Jones, Moss and Prye, Ethel Waters, the blues singer. Bob Slater was general director and Mrs. Luclie Randolph and Mrs. Fred R. Moore were chaperons for the party. Rufus Buyers Joins Staff of "How Come" After the close of the Dunbar theater in Philadelphia, Rufus Byars house manager, joined the staff o. "How Come" to do some special promotion work.

Sales Manager The show opens full stage with four girls singing. Miss Drew does a number with the girls to a fair hand Miss Mabley did a song with about the same result. White and Bowman start the plot before a special drop depicting a R. R. Depot. The story and develop shows that Bowman and his partner want to go to New Orleans to the Mardi Gras, and are without funds. Becky played by Gresham is worked on to finance the trip. The story is well developed and produces some good comedy situations besides providing opportunity for each of the people to show their talents. Bowman and Drew put over a number together that showed their personality. It earned but a few hands-here, while in another spot a number by them took applause. Gresham with some "Hokum stuff" got a lot of laughs out of his talk and dance stuff. He was the favorite of the company with the "SheTevors" audience. White followed with a good offering; but Gresham had taken the steam out of his chances. The three scenes required an hour and ten minutes. There was applauses and cheers to have justified a bow that was not forthcoming.—Wesley Varnell. TRADE PORO MARK For Every Texture of Hair and Skin.

Johnson Manufacturing Company The Company was chartered in the State of Delaware under date of January 19, 1917, with an authorized capital of $250,000.00—divided into 25,000 shares of common stock, of equal par value, $10.00 per share. The Company owns a chain of patents, consisting of eleven broad and basic patents issued by the United States Patent Office. The Company, since its incorporation, has sold its common stock by personal representation of the officers of the Company who have to date disposed of the present outstanding stock, amounting to $101,930.00. During the year 1918, a plant was purchased in the town of Jeannette, Pa., which was used as a warehouse until the year 1920, at which time the demand for our equipment has reached such a stage that we were compelled to equip this building with machinery, which we have been operating ever since. Our equipment is constantly increasing and from present orders on hand and the outlook for the balance of this year, this will be the banner year for our business in its history and career. As our present facilities are inadequate to meet this increasing demand for our products, we have therefore purchased a new site on which we intend to build a factory large enough to take care of our present and future requirements. This new factory will be equipped with the latest and most improved facilities for manufacturing our line of products. With this new plant and the modern facilities for producing our products, we will be enabled to manufacture our complete line of equipment at a saving of from 10 to 15 per cent of the cost that is at present consumed in manufacturing. For the purpose of providing the additional facilities and working capital, we have concluded to sell the remaining treasury stock which we have now remaining at $10.00 per share par value, subject to prior sale and advance in price without notice.

In the past many "spite" cases have ornamented the criminal court dockets, but they have been growing fewer and fewer under Mr. Gardner's administration, as it has become known that he will not lend his office to the persecution of any citizen. District Attorney Gardner entered the district attorney's office equipped by nature and by training for its duties, as few men have been in the past. He was the choice of 13 Common Pleas judges for the place when Judge Rowand went on the bench, and these judges had ample time to consider his qualifications and fitness as since 1918 he had been serving as an assistant district attorney, having risen from fifth to second assistant during that period.

B. Brown, present Illinois National, Ohio, Indiana and New York champion 'net, title holder will retain his laurels. He has entered the semi-nails, having defeated John Taylor, Kansas City champion and the only player to win one set from him in practice this season. Score of match played Monday at Princile Tennis Club, Chicago, where Nationals will hold forth August 20-26: 6-2, 3-6, 6-3. Brown kept Taylor guessing by his steady baseline driving and his uncanny, volleying decisively to the corners for needed and crucial points. Taylor is a great "getter," being only a 20-year-old lad. Dr. O. B. Williams, 1921 Western champion, is unlikely to play further as he injured his right hand. Richard Hudlin, University of Chicago Freshman champion, and R. A. Toney, with the cannon ball service, have also advanced to semi-final round. The women's singles and men's doubles are up in the air with Toney and Williams, Lewis and Taylor, Brown and Hudlin going great. Mrs. O. S. Seams, Miss Dorothy Radcliffe, Miss Henderson and the present champion, Illinois and National, Miss Isadore Channels, are in the semi-finals of the women's bracket. It looks like Dorothy or Isadore. BEN TAYLOR'S POTOMACS SETTING LIVELY PACE By W. Rollo Wilson PHILADELPHIA. June 28—Gennial, hustling Ben Taylor and his crippled Potomacs, accompanied by Secretary Butler, are registered at local hotel. They are filling 'dakes with P. B. A. teams during the week. When seen by the writer Ben was as cheerful as usual. "We have a good team," he said, "and as soon as the men recover from injuries no one will be able to see us for our dust. Lewis, Brown, Eggleston, Clarke, all are suffering from injuries. Lewis has a broken leg and the others all ought to be in some one's hospital. But the boys are all game and want to play and how are you going to keep such fellows on the bench? You can say for me that they are the most loyal, unselfish chaps I was ever associated with." The outfit is going good and have won a majority of their games to date. They have met all sorts of competition and have played as far West as Cleveland. They dropped two games to the Farmers in New York Sunday, but made such an impression that Mr. Butler was asked to name his own terms for a return date. They play snappy, intelligent baseball and that is what the fans want. The team is on the road till July 2nd and then they return home to play a five-game series with the Harrisburg Giants. Local Tennis Club Joins National Body The Rex Raquet Club is progressing wonderfully and promises to establish Pittsburgh on the tennis map. Although they have no stars at present, they do have talent that is very promising. This organization is planning to secure courts that they might develop this talent. They have been installed in the National Tennis Association that they might compete in the coming tournaments. The social end of the club is being taken care of very ably by the ladies, quite a few original, unique ideas have been suggested for entertainments, so that the public is in store for some real treats. The last week in June looms as the time for a novel lawn-fete. The club will do its utmost to make this affair an unusual success so that all present will be assured an evening's real pleasure. For final date and place watch next issue of this paper.

TO MEET IN ATLANTA, JULY 3 [Signature] Jackson And Flowers Get Down To Work Ohio Pugilist Will Outweigh Rival by Ten Lounds July 3 Card Biggest in History of Atlanta. ATLANTA, Ga., June 28—With Tiger Flowers and Tut Jackson as the main event over the 12-round distance and a card embracing a total of more than 50 rounds of boxing, the big show at the Auditorium on July 3 will undoubtedly be the biggest ever staged in Atlanta. Other matches are in the making, including five 10-round battles between boxers of known ability. Will Make 175 Pounds Tut Jackson will make 175 pounds for the main go, which will be about 10 pounds advantage over Flowers. Flowers is under 165 at present, but will be built up in weight by several pounds in order to have a better chance at the big Washington Courthouse light-heavyweight. A victory over Rufus Cameron, coast heavyweight, in Nashville Wednesday night is but another feather in the cap of the Tiger. He took every round from Cameron, despite the fact that he was giving away 38 pounds, and twice had the big fellow down for the count of nine. The bell saved him in the fifth round. Jackson has a record of 72 victories, and has not lost but one fight in two years, that being to Harry Wills, contender for the world's heavyweight championship, who weighs 220 pounds. The July 3 boxing card is being widely advertised throughout the south, and one of the biggest houses that ever assembled to witness a boxing show south of the Mason and Dixon line is expected, when the star card is staged. Birmingham Black Barons Break Even MEMPHIS. Tenn., June 28.—Birmingham Black Barons, two of the strongest teams in the Southern League, broke even here in a four-game series last week.

MACK SHOE CO. 1231 Wylie Avenue, Corner Logan Street A Liberty Homing Club Hold 500 Mile Race The Liberty Homing Club of the Garfield district flew their sixth old bird rage from Vandalia, Ill., a distance of 500 miles air line. There were 75 birds from 6 lofts in the contest. The birds were liberated at 6:30 A. M., Saturday morning, but as the day was very warm and only 4 miles of wind per hour, the birds had a very hot day to travel. There were no birds home the same day and after a good night's rest somewhere in the fields, of West Virginia or some other place down that party. Pete John's Little Jake flashed home a winner 8:45 Sunday morning followed by Right Fast Jr. from the same loft. Old Hootchook took third for Pete, so we can plainly see now the Mr. Johns have the best flying birds in Pittsburgh, when it comes to flying long races. John Morgan was second man to report. Scott and Allen were third, while T. Thomas was fourth, and loft no report. Little John made 6over 900 yards a minute. Morgan made 800, Scott and Allen made around 800 per min. This will finish old bird races. The first young bird race will be flown from Coshocton, Ohio, on the 2nd of September, 1923. Philadelphia Club Gets Home Grounds PHILADELPHIA>Ja. June 28.—The Peerless Giants have succeeded in rounding into form and have also secured their home grounds for games with all first-class semi-clubs.

Grays split, even in their two week-end games, winning from the St. Ignatius Club, 10 to 1 Thursday evening, and losing to the Harmarville. Consumers on Friday, 7-6, in a hard-fought game. The feature of Thursday's contest was the superb twirling of Oscar Owens for the Grays. Owens allowed but two hits. The hitting of Canady and Moody was sensational. 'The feature of Friday's game' was the hitting of Owens, Johnson and Washington. Cuban Stars Sensation Of Junior League Hildale Continues to Set Dizzy Pace, But Winning Streak of Cuban's Make Them Dangerous Foe. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 28. By keeping their slate clean since the reverse handed them by the Bacharach Giants in Atlantic City, the Hildale Club has breezed along at a one-thousand clip and are still out in front in the first pennant chase of the Eastern Colored League. Winters, the lone southpaw, drawing stipend from the house of Bolden, has been a tower of strength to the Philadelphia contingent, since the elongated portside has rounded into form he has been turning in victories with marked regularity. Lee is another hurler that has been hanging a great record. The underhand artist has slow-balled his way to a couple of victories and suffered no defeats in league contests. While much may be said regarding the defensive works of the Hilldale outfit, it is really the murderous offensive of the Hilldale crew that has blazed the way to so many victories. Captain Lloyd, playing the true role of a leader, has been delivering in the pinches, turning apparent defeats into victories and the grizzled veteran has been ably assisted by Mackey, Carr, George Johnson, Briggs and Thomas. Intent upon packing the laurals of the new league back to the "islands" Manager Pépezel's Cuban team, after applying the brunt in the series with the Baltimore Sox by coping three straight from the Monumental City boys run their string to six straight at the expense of the Bacharachaints, when the Islanders inaded the sand dunes of Atlantic City and turned back the seashore crowd in three straight contests. Taking into consideration that the Cubans are on the road all of the time, they are placed at greater disadvantage than the clubs that have home grounds, but this apparently does not worry the Chacon and his warriors. Oscar, the spitball demon, has been a source of trouble to all opposing league clubs and is now one of the league's leading hurlers. The Cubans, although a light hitting club, are producing timely wallops when they have men on the bases. The Lincoln Giants are still in a deep slump, but Big Joe Williams and his gang are figuring on the proverbial worm doing the turning act and getting off the skids. Baltimore Sox and the Bacharach Giants have both dropped in the percentage: column due to falling victims to the wiley, "Gubes," while the Royal Giants will get back into league games after a long trip through New York State.

Cuban X Giants Re-open Central Park Saturday Former Home of Keystones Have Been Remodeled. Big League Clubs May Be Seen in Action. Once again local baesball followers, lovers of fast semi-pro ball, will be given the chance to visit Central Park, following an announcement last week, to the effect that Sell Hall, manager of the Cuban X Giants, had secured the park, and after more than two weeks spent in remodeling the ground, enlarging the playing field and erecting grandstand and bleachers, has arranged to play twilight and Saturday games at the park. The first big game will be played Saturday afternoon, when the strong Duquesne club, one of the speediest semi-clubs in this district, will be met at 3:30 P. M. The visitors, it is said, are preparing to strengthen their lineup for Saturday's encounter, and from all appearances, one of the best games of the season in the city will be on tap. Hall's Giants have been travelling at a sensational clip this season and local fans will again have the chance to see Johnny Spencer, "Bull" Barbour, Johnny Allen, Archie Barnett, Roy Anderson, Portaundo, Mellix and others well known in local circles in action. All of these lads have been seen in action with the Keystones and the Grays, and their ability is well-known. Mellix, Collins and Hall, himself, will appear to be having the best season in several years, form the backbone of the pitching staff. A new receiver, Sands by name, is also in a Giant uniform, and his work has been of a highly sensational nature. To Book Strong Clubs Manager Hail, in order to give the fervor of district some real attraction in a baseball way, has opened negotiations with strong independent clubs, and is also dicker- ing for several games with teams of the Eastern Association and the National Negro League it has opened to add to bring the Harrisburg Giants and the Tata Stars, of Cleveland here.

By GEORGE M. BELL NEW YORK, June 28 — Simultaneous with the announcement that the Western players were beginning to arrive in Chicago, and that those already there are wasting no time in getting in shape, the Eastern Vigilantes have started a recruiting drive whereby they hope by the end of August to have an array of talent that will hold its own against the best in the land. Preparatory to this invasion, the New Jersey team will be the new member of the National Body, held an Inter-sectional Tournament on Saturday, last, with the result that some sturdy recruits were unearthened; these they will send to New York to take part in the State Championships in August where they will get their real tryout before going west. Among these players are Mr. Mitchell, late of the Springfield Y. M. C. A., representing South Jersey; George White of the Warde brothers, of New Jersey, which won the tournament. The tournament took place on the courts of the now famous Shady Rest Country, Club Westfield, N.

ENTERTAINS The combined strength of New Jersey and Love Island could not stop the youngsters in the Arrow Tennis club, by whom they were entertained on Sunday afternoon, June 21. Players representing not less than half dozen clubs came to 1838th street confident of defeating the Arrows, but were sadly disappointed for reason. Arrows can burst of not only but also the youngest players in the east. A large sized gallery spent the better part of the afternoon watching the several contests which proved very interesting. The players and friends were served with refreshments and an enjoyable afternoon was spent by all. Match games of this nature will be held whenever possible, as the Arrow clubs in the East out to bring the National Championships to New York in August. Among the players of not only are members of the Arrow T. C. are Ayers, Sakth, E. Gomes, R. D. Ponder, J. C. McDowell and J: B. Williams, who is captain of the club.

Dark clouds of the denseness of night made it impossible to play and the game was called at the end of the first half of the fifth inning, with the score 7 to 2 in favor of the local team. Five minutes after the game was called the storm broke. Rain fell in torrents for an hour, flooding the field and walks and making exit from the baseball field impossible, until after the water had subsided. Hasty calls were made in the city fo. automobiles, but it was long after 6 o'clock until everybody was off the island.

RIGHT MAIN OFFICE: 518 FOURTH AVENUE Bell Telephone—Court 1832 Room 303 Syndicate Building Published Every Friday at 518 Fourth Avenue, Pittsburgh Foreign Advertising Representative, W. B. Ziff Company, 608 South Dearborn Street, Chicago; 321 Victoria Building, St. Louis, Mo.; 420 Longacre Building, New York. The latest release on the Tuskegee hospital tangle gives the public just cause for impatience with the whole affair. Now comes the lengthy report tending to show that the present white personnel is due to Southern activity, in spite of Moton influences; as well as the prediction that soon the personnel will be Negro from top to bottom. There is little need of fooling the people, on this hospital question. It is very evident now that there are at work at least two opposing forces. The one seems bent upon depriving the other of any reward or honor for the personnel finally to be chosen for the hospital; while both desire to impress the public with their strong political influence around the White House. Of course, the reading public will weigh each report, and give value to either or to both as seems fit and proper. There is little real value in either, in our judgment. And why? It is evident that President Harding directed that Negroes he selected to operate the hospital. It is just as evident now that whites are in control, with a few blacks acting as "funkies." This state of things evidences one of two conclusions, viz: President Harding was sincere in requesting a Negro personnel, or he was not. If he was sincere, and then allowed Southern sentiment to drive him from his course, he is nothing but a slave to sentiment, and is too spineless to be President of the United States. If he was not sincere, and did not intend to put any force behind his orders, then he simply acted the part of a cheat to the Negroes, and again disqualifies himself for the high and exalted position he holds. But we have our suspicions that the President has not pursued either course. He is too wise, or he is surrounded with counsel too wise, for any such a stupid course of conduct. We are of the opinion that too many chefs have spoiled the broth. All the talk about crackers ruling the situation sounds well; but too often the crackers are assisted by a few evil-minded Negroes. But that aside. The activity of Major Moton justifies, we think, our recent criticism of his conduct. He lives in the South, where he MUST ship to sentiment, and save his life from actual danger. He knows all this, and he knows that his great work is in the South, where he will die trying to fill Booker Washington's shoes, a la directions. It is utterly impossible for Moton, living where he does, and under the conditions he does, to take the lead at any time in anything political touching all the Negroes of this great country. Political leaders MUST hail from a section of the country where there are votes to support the leader. Moton, by his activity, middled in a political quagmire when he tried to thrust Southern leadership upon Northern voters. It simply spells confusion, strife, envy, jealousy and prejudice. The Negroes of the North are not going to see their voting pressure added. strongen peded around over the country by Moton. He ought not thrust his leadership upon the men who must do the voting in all political campaigns. Major Moton need never expect to see the Northern Negro sitting idly by while Southern leadership assumes the role of dictator for the whole country. The hospital has been and always will be a subject of political manipulation. Major Moton knows the black South means little or nothing to the Republican party. The great pivotal states are in the North and West. It was not the part of wisdom for Major Moton to thrust his assumed leadership into a national question, especially when he could have avoided it by simply attending to his duties as head of Tuskegee. A political hospital is a subject for politicians, not educators. Nor will good intentions justify bad judgment. Now it is very easy for President Harding to say that his original plans to have Negroes operate the hospital were broken asunder by a division among the Negroes themselves. This is just what he wanted, and the two factions played into his hands as completely as if he had directed them in person. The result: The Negro loses its power. The result: The Negro loses as usual. Something Achieved Whatever else may be said of the N.

P., unstinted credit belongs to its uniring activity in behalf of those Arkansas farmers whose lives were about to be snuffed out by the hand of prejudice and Southern "speedy" justice. The Arkansas court, following orders from a higher tribunal, has ordered the release of the men. For this ray of light along our benighted road, let us give thanks to those whose hands and heads directed the rescue of our ill-fated brethren. And there is another benefit which comes to us all, and which we might not have received, had not the hasty judgment of the court been reversed. We refer to the established practice of giving Negroes a hasty trial to escape the lynchers. The reversal of the court and its hasty action serves notice that there must not only be a trial, but a trial clothed with all the formality, dignity and impartial rulings common to trials in our highest tribunals. The net benefit will not dawn upon us until in after years. Precedent is a most valuable thing, at times. In future years, when a kindred situation is brought before the courts of the land, the rulings, findings and orders of court in the case of the Arkansas farmers will be referred to with pride and confidence. The N. A. A. C. P. may catalogue this case as one living thing actually accomplished. The Battles Monument Commission One of the last acts of the Chief Executive, before leaving to invade the West and Alaska, was to name the American Battles Monument Commission. We are not acquainted with the whole Commission, but we happen to know two of the gentlemen: the Hon. David A. Reed, United States Senator from Pennsylvania, and Hon. Robert G. Woodside, Sheriff of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. If the remainder of the personnel measures up to these two gentlemen, monuments erected in memory of American battles will represent real Americanism. The Tuskegee Tangle Something Achieved SUCCESS PREVOKET HATRED CONCERN SUGAR STUDIO Hutchison The closing days of June bring to us our annual quota of graduates from our various institutions of various grades and classes. Regardless of the curricula taught, each institution is the "best school" in the country, in the estimation of its respective alumni. And this is the proper spirit. We wonder, as these thousands of eager ones, young, strong and hopeful, step upon the great campus of life to play their respective parts, whether they have been told, by their professors and teachers, what a tedious road lies before the man or woman who seeks to find his or her way UP. The way UP is long and hard. The world is a place so different from the school pictures painted by our teachers and the visiting orators. More and more, the way UP is becoming uniformly hard and long,—for all alike. The time was when the Colored youth was ushered into the world to "aid his struggling people." The youth of today finds that not only his people must struggle, but all the world about him is a grand struggle,—UPWARD. The way DOWN-WARD is still as easy as when honest men were sought with a lantern. No longer is the race one for the men and women-of color. The race is an open contest for all men and women alike. Perhaps the Colored youth encounters a greater handicap. He must carry the load of prejudice, race hatred and oppression. But his white brother has to carry his load, not very unlike that of the Colored fellow citizen. The white youth starts out with his load of conceit, self importance, superiority and preference. Before he is very far up life's rugged road he finds other men his equals, just as important, not a whit inferior, and no more a preference in God's sight than himself. If success is to be reached,—and it awaits us some distance up the hill—we must rid ourselves of the handicaps, as far as possible, and set out to accomplish, and achieve all that his offers to those who are willing to toil. Not my brother's career is for me; but mine alone quite engages me. Not what others say, but what may I do. Not the impressions others have made, but what impressions may I make. These are the mile posts between the beginner and the coveted temple of SUCCESS. Diplomas are but certificates which entitle us to enter the race. They guarantee us no place in the running whatever. The long, hard way lies before us; and there are no detours. Of course, it will be a happy day when a President of the United States sees fit to honor some worthy Negro citizen with a place of recognition for glorious deeds of black Americans in American wars. We suppose this country is afraid the world will misconstrue such recognition, and for that reason it is not granted us. But we may be pardoned if we contemplate the joy that would be ours if this great country could rise, just once, to the dignity of the occasion and reward black men for the blood they give in battles they have no part in framing or provoking. From Bunker Hill to Metz, the black soldier has made the supreme sacrifice. Always he has answered roll call, or the draft. He has the distinction of fighting for a chance to fight. But since we are not worthy of a suitable expression of recognition for the sacrifices we have made, we do borrow some consolation from the fact that men like Senator Reed and Sheriff Woodside have been chosen on the Commission to erect monuments to American battles. Somewhere in France, on some spot where black men fell, we are certain the two Pennsylvanians will stop and say: Let us build here a monument to the black boys of America. We hope to see such a shaft rise upon the soil of the nations we fought to save. We suppose one of the party planks next year will be something about the Negro personnel of the force at the Tuskegee Hospital. Some Negroes would fall for it.

ELAINE RIOTERS FREED RY ORDER OF ARK COURT (Continued:From Page 1) citation, appeared before the United States Supreme Court in a final plea for justice. In his speech, Attorney Storey charged that the sixteen men had been practically "railroaded" to the electric chair. The counts of Arkansas and the Rotary Club, American Legion and other organizations were included in the startling revelations. Storey, declared in his brief that torture of the most vicious nature was employed to make the prisoner dominate their trial, which is alleged to have taken place in less than an hour. At that time, he declared that he had "distinct evidence" that 200 or 500 alleged to have been killed during the rioting, that the citizen Helena "were determined that these men should be convicted," and that "they manufactured the evidence for the purpose." The sixteen men for whom Storey pleaded at that time were first sentenced to death, following alleged participation in rioting, when it is said white farmers tried to place Colored workers in a state of bondage and peonage. It was contended at the trial in behalf of the accused Colored men that they had assembled in their church at Hoop Spur, in Phillips County, October 1, 1919, to devise means as tenant farmers to relieve the church of all debts which they asserted amounted to peonage. While so as assembled, the men claimed that armed whites surrounded the church and fired upon them, killing a number. They marked the beginning of one of the fiercest race riots in the history of the country. For days, armed poses of men of both races hunted each other as one would hunt an animal. Scores-were killed in the outburst, and an officer was objected to the brutal torture and suffered untold indignities. On behalf of the State, it was asserted that the condemned men had assembled in connection with a plot to kill men, and that the firing was done by a posse sent to quell the riot. Decision Marks Real Triumph The decision of the Arkansas Supreme Court marks a real triumph, not only for the organizations which oppose it, but surprisingly, for the entire race. The petition was based on a statute which provides that unless a date for trial is set by the court within two terms from the indictment, the defendants are entitled to discretion. The attorneys for the men contended that their cases had been pending for two terms, and that, although they had filed motions in each term to have the day set for trial, the court had not set the day against them; they were, consequently, entitled to dismiss under the statute. MANY GEORGIANS INDICTED IN SAVANNAH RIOT CASE (Continued From Page 1) forward and Lieut. Col. Thompson and Major Russell Moore of the 118th Field Artillery, who were in command of the guard detachment, ordered it to fire over the heads of the crowd. The fire was returned by some of those in the mob. The 3 o'clock the streets were quiet. Later in the morning Mayor Seabrooks got in touch with Governor Hardwick and expressed fear of another outbreak. The Governor at once declared the city in a state of insurrection and issued a proclamation declaring it under martial law, with Brig. Gen. Travis, commanding the guard in this district, in charge. Wednesday night everything was quiet. War Is Again Raging Within Ku Klux Klan ATLANTA, Ga., June 23—War again raged within the Klu Klux Klan last week when Hiram W.

As defendants, the petition named Emperor Simmons, Rev. Riho R. I. O. Wood, editor of the 'Searchlight, and several others The following are the dates set for the bigger conventions.

The Billboard maintains a free service for conventions, and it is to be regretted that the secretaries and other officials of the various Negro bodies do not avail themselves of this service by informing that public members of the office should attend the dates selected. The Editors have been obliged to go to considerable trouble to ascertain the dates for our affairs, and usually when they are obtained it is too late for publication. One prominent Race organization that has frequently requested and received such information from the public advises the date of the coming meeting of the body, reported as being set for Kansas City. Deserted Wife Seeks Parole, for Husband Who, Was Unfaithful William Shakespeare once said "the course of true love never did run smooth." Time has proven the truth of those words. It is equally certain that true love remains unshaken no matter how rough the going. Monday, a quietly dressed woman called at the executive department. She said she wanted to see the governor. In the course of time she did what she wanted to have her husband paroled. It developed the man in the case deserted her; that later he married another woman without observing the necessary formality of obtaining a marriage from her. No. 1 wanted some time later, man was convicted of bigamy and given a prison sentence. Soon thereafter, wife No. 2 divorced him. No. wife No. 1 wants him set free. The course of true love may not always fine and strong and amoral. Of all the things on earth, true love more nearly approaches, perhaps, the divine. CHAMBER'S REVIEW Frolic Theater, Birmingham, Ala., June 4, Evening Performance, Andrew Bishop Presents the Famous Lafayette Players. With the elimination of the congregational type of Colored shows playing this city, this company of artistists will house this for the week, offering "What a Young Girl Should Know" and "Over the Hill to the Poorhouse." The cast included Andrew Bishop, J. Lawrence Criner, William Babe) Townsend, A. B. Comathere, Walter Robinson, Harry Plater, Edward Thompson, Frances Wood, Shinzie Howard, Isabelle Jones and Cloe Desmond, who proved that Colored talent can be found. Monday's performance was a treat to the better class of the theatergoers who would not ordinarily have been there. But the regulars showed that the patrons as a whole enjoyed an evening, entertainment of this galerier, the impression left is that the city presents drama, but prefers musical演出 or vaudeville acts. However, the attendance increased each day. During the performance "Babe" Townsend made an announcement commenting favorably on their show, and fighting smut, suggestiveness and vulgarity so much that the without distinction he condemned tabs and minstrels, which caused a majority of the patrons to become offended, since they have respect for some shows that have played here, for there have been quite a fewLEAN shows here that have left favorable mission and are a credit to the race. "Over the Hill to the Poorhouse" was the best of their offerings, pulling a bigger house than the former act. Poor advertising was the cause of a falling off of the first half's attestation, as displayed few pictures together with slides were the only advance billing for this high-priced show, causing a difference in the box-office. The members of the company were nice lookers, and ladies and gentlemen on and off, and were all apparently aware of the people of this city. The show was great, well staged and carried their own special sceneries. BILLY CHAMBERS. SATURDAY, JUNE 30.

There are no Negroes in business who move up to Lee and Lewis of a generation ago. The ordinary workingman is scarcely more than his own. The professional men are doing well.

Warm Summer Days Bring Thoughts of Cool Dresses Pale pink georgette and silver lace! What could be more dainty for the dance or dinner frock of the happy bride. And, the wrap of heavy brocaded silk exquisitely lined in silver flat crepe will serve her well for any formal occasion. Did you have a thought a while back that you might get through with the Summer months without any really thin clothes? And then these last days! Well, of course, we'll have to take it for granted that your mind has changed. The last days have been too much. For the next two months at least there will be days and days when only thin, light dresses will suffice, and the important question now is how to make those frocks thin enough and cool enough to be satisfactory and wearable, and still to cast about them that happy crispness of expression that makes them look as comfortable as they really are. It is all right to feel cool, but you don't want to look dowdy at the same time, and that is the effect that so many summer things are apt to cast on them in spite of themselves. Now, all this means that you must study your hot-weather self with as much care and forethought as you usually spend upon your cold or even medium-weather self. Organdie is very good this year, particularly white organdie and that pale rose petal shade that Paris is so fond of. They're even using black organdie over cloth of silver, though that, the American mind, is a bit exotic. However, we should be extremely glad we're allowed to wear it in any tone, for nothing is quite so fresh and crisp and summery, especially for the young girl whose slight figure rises in piquant contrast from the characteristic fluff of airy skirts. To be at its loveliest, organdie should be handled as little as possible in making it up, for the delicate edge pulls and the beautiful texture is easily marred, particularly when one deals with a bias. Perhaps that's why the most attractive of the new organdie frocks are absurdly simple in construction—just a few basic seams, with the fresh flower-torn fabric itself allowed to take its natural lines between them: appointed.

The result of this journalistic excursion to the Treasury Department, when he talked with Colonel Clifford and Miss Heffner, Dr. White's secretary, (Dr. White being out of town), was that there was little they could do in the matter of staffing the hospital, since their powers in particular had been transferred by the Veteran Bureau. Colonel Clifford on this day, made if clear that, but the President of the United States could effectively direct or control the tensions of the officials of the Bureau. All of which information, Chisum immediately transferred to Dr. Moton at Tuskegee.

Hines, FRANK T. HINES, Director. More than fifty letters addressed to both nurses and physicians from subordinate officials in both the Veterans' Bureau and the Civil Service Commission go to prove to what lengths the conspiracy to defeat President Harding's and Dr. Moton's plan of staffing the Tuskegee Hospital with colored professionals. A careful check-up on the methods employed by the subordinate bureaucrats in the Veterans' Bureau (we have the facts—we are prepared to call more names and count many more noses than we have done already, if it becomes necessary. We have the close-up on the scheme of the conspirators who have thus far defeated the ends and purposes of President Harding), discloses a fixed purpose and most skillfully designed scheme to prevent Negro practitioners functioning in this hospital as long as there is Government hospitalization. We say without the slightest doubt of successful contradiction that there has not been one jot of sincerity on the part of the Civil-Service Commission to qualify our own men and women for this work, but on the contrary every subterfuge, scheme and trick known to the tight-knit oped bureau of discriminators have been employed to preclude persons qualifying for the bureaus, the bullets and other signs have deceived The Gov. yet. The part played by the subordinate officials of the Civil Service Commission of the Fifth District has done much to help prove the case as we There has been a great deal said as to the difficulty in finding experts in certain diseases to be treated at the hospital. Observations covering a period of eleven months prove that there are very few honest-to-godness specialists among the white men now serving in the Veterans' Hospitals. It is an undeniable fact that the so-called psychiatric specialists and others now serving in the Bureau learned all they know about the business during the World War. The colored doctors who enlisted in the army and went over seas were quite the equals and in many cases, infinitely superior to the white men who went into this branch of the service, and have quite as much knowledge of the work as men now serving. The great hue and cry which have been used by the conspirators in their plotting to keep colored out, have been calculated to deceive the public as to the efficiency of the black man, and also lead them to believe that great success such as are the Mayo brothers are now serving in the veterans' Bureau. The fact is, with a few notable exceptions, the men in the Veterans' Bureau, are young white fellows, the majority of them southerners, who have but mediocre ability as little humanity in this as would be expected to be found in a Hatterston doctor from the Aborigines. Finally, if an executive order can be issued to take physicians out of the Public Health Service and place them in the Veterans' Bureau, then the same thing can be done by President Harding to place colored physicians and surgeons in charge of the work at Tuskegee Hospital; and if they ever get there, this is the only way they will be placed. A blank form now used by the Veterans' Bureau serves on which the white doctors serving in the Department have placed certain answers and signatures. This is the only examination required who are in this branch of the service. The application blanks, a form provided by the Hospitalization Committee of the Treasury Department which doctors and nurses applying for places here fill out, has been construed by the officers of the Government to be a technical test and the only examination necessary to be given the white doctors and no other method has been employed to qualify them. The central office files of the Veterans' Bureau will bear out this fact. Horrors of Prison Life Behind Grim Walls of Western 'Pen' Told Movies, with the excuse that it is too warm.

One sends in this bit of poetry: "The sanitary conditions are such that existed in 1880. We must continually endure the foul fumes that come from the toilet drainage because there is no trap to check it. While confined in a space of 8 x 5 feet we must breathe into our lungs for twenty two hours each day poisonous gases from these toilets. The inside of the toilets are flaky with germs. At night we must flap with our feet on the toilet seat or our heads on the given newspapers for our purposes, which often clog the pipes. We spend restless nights due to bed bugs which are in every cell. "It's tough to be within a space of eight by five feet wide, Where we must either stay in bed or sit without a stride. And all because a system rules that we should stay in pent For twenty-two long hours we must each day be content; And not complain or lift a hand to right a human call If so, we're apt to loose parole, and may be ill.

But given this cue by Marcus himself, the Post Office Inspector went direct to a newsstand after leaving Garvey's office and bought a copy of the Crusader. Later that same day, impressed by the articles in The Crusader, he visited the office of that publication where he bought several back numbers carrying articles on Garvey and the Black Star Line. He tried to get additional information from the editors, but was told that he would find all the facts in their possession in the columns of the two publications: the Crusader and the Emancipator. Garvey to "go find out who owns the "Shadyside" which, following their documented exposure of his claims to ownership of the "Yarmouth" he held up to his followers as evidence that he did own something. However, those who had so effectively exposed his "Yarmouth" pretensions were not deterred by the fact that ownership of the "Shadyside". They investigated and discovered that Garvey at that time did not own even the rotten river steamboat "Shadyside" (appropriate name!) These exposures won for Mr. Briggs and the others the bittes hatred of Marcus Garvey, and at one period of the fight when Marcus Garvey was so cornered and beheaded, he had insisted his paper, The Negro World, an advertisement to the effect that Mr. Briggs was a white man passing for colored. Mr. Briggs immediately brought action against him for criminal libel, and Marcus Garvey, faced with the alternative or retractions his lie or going against his statement that Mr. Briggs, a well-known Negro journalist, was a white man passing for colored. Again, it was this group that ran down Marcus Garvey's claim that the Black Star Line possessed a steamship of ten thousand tons called the "Phyllis Wheatley" and sprang, through the Crusader Magazine and the Colored Press in general, the startling and spectacular exposure that the much-advertised ship was more real, a fragment of Garvey's voyage imagination and nothing more than a "ghost ship". At the time that this exposure was more tickets were being sold for passage to Africa and the West Indies on the "ghost ship" "Phyllis Wheatley" and the sale of Black Star stock was being pushed with the argument that the company owned such a vessel. This action was shortly followed by one on the part of Marcus Garvey against Mr. Briggs for criminal libel, and the latter was indicted by a Grand Jury. This case has not been called as yet. This trick was Garvey's undoing, Exposure of the non-existence of this widely-heralded vessel by the Crusader Magazine led to the filling of complaints with the Post Office and the Department of Justice by persons who had bought passage on the mythical ship or had invested their life-savings with Garvey on the strength of his ownership of a real vessel of that description and name. Whether it was Garvey's flirtation with, and defence of the Ku Klux Klan, or his endorsement of the scheme of a Mississippi Senator to deport the race to Africa, or his praise of President Harding's infamous Birmingham speech; or his rendering of thanks to the white South for lynching Negroes, or any other of his numerous nonsensical and traitorous statement and acts, it was always Messrs Briggs and Smithing and James Wilson who led the association of Marxs Garvey and in the end roused a public opinion that would eventually have overwhelmed him even without the action of the Federal Government in sentencing him to prison. An investigation followed. A post office inspector sent to interview Marcus Garvey was told that "this talk was all lies sent out by the Crusader Magazine".
