Proprietor of Garage Locked Door and Kept Girl Prisoner During Storm. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., July 19—Henry L. Dorsey was found guilty of having assaulted a young woman, whose name was not divulged, last Thursday afternoon in Criminal Court and sentenced to three years in the State Penitentiary. The jury was out less than thirty minutes. Dorsey waived the time allowed before the passing of the sentence and was sentenced by Judge Wade immediately following his conviction. Dorsey is a prominent proprietor of a garage here. He was charged with attacking a prominent society woman in his garage here on May 5 last. It is said that the crime was committed when the young lady went into his garage during a heavy rain storm. During the trial it was brought out in the testimony that the woman had known Dorsey for a number of years and as far as she knew at the time she sought shelter from the storm in his place of business she would be perfectly safe. She told the court that Dorsey was in the garage alone when she went in out of the storm and that he invited her into his office, locked the door behind them and put the key in his pocket, and then like a wild animal attacked her.

Race Betrayed In Big Hospital Mess,Is Charge Hines Holds Up Appointments — Im mediate Probe Asked for Department of Justice: (Crunder Service) WASHINGTON, July 13—The first round in the battle raging over the question as to whether disabled colored veterans should have the sympathetic care and attention of doctors and nurses of their own race or should he left to the tender mercies of Negro-hating Southern white doctors and nurses of Ku Klux Klan affiliation or sympathy was won by the Ku Klux Klan crowd, who so filled Director Hines of the Veterans Bureau with lies upon his recent visit to Tuskegee that upon his return here he announced that he would not appoint any more colored doctors or nurses to the Veterans Bureau new Hospital for Negro veterans at Tuskegee Klan members have won the first fight. But the field has won them, in the opinion of the who knew the sentiment of consigning their war veterans to the mercies of a cracker personal. Negro Civil Rights organization have complained to the Department of Justice that the intimation tactics have been used by the Ku Klux Klan to drive out of Tuskegee several Negroes, including some who have been at the Tuskegee Institute for years. These organizations demand that the Department instigate an investigation into the alleged Ku Klux terrorism. Both the N. A. A. C. P., and the African Blood Brotherhood have entered such complaints, and have moreover called upon the Secretary of War to assign Federal troops to the protection of the new hospital, the war veterans housed there and the ability of the Tuskegee Institute which they are threatened by the Klan. The African Blood Brotherhood, in its demand, declared that the Department of Justice could with benefit to the country diver; at least a part of its forces from the oppression and spying on Labor to an investigation of Ku Klux Jewlessness in and around Tuskegee. The Department, however, shows no taste for the task. Assistant Attorney General Crim. in charge of criminal prosecutions, rendered an opinion that there is sufficient cause for a Federal inquiry, but still Attorney-General Daugherty hesitates to act! In the meantime, the N. A. A. C.

Poincaire To Investigate Tourists' Snubs Complaint of French Citizens Wins Promise to End Embarrassment. PARIS, July 19. — Complaints about the attitude of the American tourists toward colored citizens of France have been made to Premier Poincaré by colored deputies in the French parliament, who propose that diplomatic representations be made to Washington as one means of satisfying their grievances, according to information received from trustworthy sources. Colored citizens of France feel that travelers from overseas who fail to realize the absolute equality of the races here and the total absence of a color line should be made to understand these things before leaving home, in order not to violate French susceptibility in this direction. Such knowledge, they claim, can be imparted only by direct action by the American government. Two Measures Considered. A certain amount of satisfaction probably will be granted to the colored deputies in this matter by Premier Poincaré. Two measures for their benefit are said to be under consideration; one of them is the kitchen window, where Mrs. Hays, the sister, could be seen working and Mrs. Amos ironing clothes. Immediately without warning, Smith fired twice at his sister-in-law and then emptied the revolver at Mrs. Amos. Three shots entered the body of Mrs. Hays and she died a few minutes after being hit. Two The Effect. Mrs. Anna Hays bullets struck Mrs. Amos and she was rushed to the West Penn hospital, where her condition is reported serious. Makes Escape Awakened by the agonizing screams of his wife and mother, George Hays, who was asleep upstairs, pursued Smith, but the latter made good his escape. Up until Saturday morning, Mrs. Grace Smith, the wife, had not been located. Relatives feared for her safety should she fall into the hands of her husband. Police throughout the county are on the lookout for Smith. Hays and a 14-year-old son of Marianne were held as material witnesses. Gov. of West Virginia Appoints Race Woman CHARLESTON, W.

Youth Released Riot Is Feared WAUKEGAN, III., July 19.—The northwest section of this city was under heavy police guard here Monday as the result of murmurings that race riot was not improbable. The action of the police followed the release of Eugene Cooper, an 18-year-old youth, who had been charged with having attacked a 12-year-old white girl. The police investigated the charge and found that the girl, out with a white companion, invented the story to save her from chastisement, it is alleged. Kansan Yields To Race Voters On Martial Law Kansan Yields To Race Voters On Martial Law Senator Capper Expected to Cancel Clause Which Bans Intermarriage of Races. WASHINGTON, July 19—As a result of protests from race organizations throughout the nation, Senator Capper of Kansas virtually has decided to eliminate from his bill to provide regulations, to be reintroduced at the next Congress, that portion which says: "No license to marry shall be issued where applicants are members of different races, that is to say, marriage between members of the white and black races or of the white and yellow races, shall not be valid." At present marriages between the two races are permitted in several states and organization in itself that nothing be done by Congress to disturb—that situation, threats of political reprisals have been sent to Senator Coffer by numerous organizations in the event he does not strike out the objectionable feature of his proposed bill. Capper to Avoid Issue. Senator Capper, his friends, say, takes the position that it is needless to go out of his way to offend the colored population of the country in declaring the social line. The bill he is sponsoring was prepared by the attorney for the American Federation of Women's Clubs, and Senator Capper it is, said, was not familiar with its provisions when he introduced it. During the recess of Congress he has been able to get a line on the reaction so that measure from various sources will likely be proposed to meet the majority opinion as he says he finds it.

Man Jury Deliberates Eleven Minutes in Case of Man Held in Connection With Lynching of James Scott. COURT IN UPROAR COLUMBIA, Mo., July 19.—With a banquet arranged for him before the jury brought in its verdict, George W. Barkwell, white, on trial for murder here in the first degree in connection with the lynching of James T. Scott, although positively identified by a university student as the man whose hands adjusted the "death noose," was acquitted here Thursday afternoon. The jury on the case deliberated exactly 11 minutes. Mob spirit, almost equal to the feeling that swept that mass of hoops on the night of April 29, when Scott was held to life, from a high bridge, and the snoken comment that "no white jury can deny to convict a white man hanging to a market" left the spots of a spectacle which will down in history as one of the blackest disgraces the state has ever known. The same disgerred for law and order which mailed the lynching, characterized the trial and time and again the presiding judge had to threaten to clear the room if their noisy demonstrations were kept up. Every utterance on the part of a white man called for cheering, and during the time of the empaneling of the jury, the trial and the jury's verdict, the ignorance and conceit of the crowd, was plainly in evidence.

Youthful 'Globe Trotter' Reaches The World's End Uniontown Lad, 18 Years Old, Sends Letter From Cape Town, South Africa—Has Traveled All Over United States. UNIONTOWN, Pa., July 19—Race Boy has Singular Experience when it comes to traveling, Edgar, "Baby" Johnson, the 18 year old son of Mrs. Lydia Johnson of this city, is easily the winner of all honors. Before he was nineteen, "Baby" had the American experience of being from coast to coast and from the lakes to the Gulf several times. Lured by the stories of France, England, and Germany, by the boys who returned from "Over there", and being himself too young to go to war, was anxious to see those countries for himself, it is needless to say he did so in due time. Letters from these places by his own hand attest that he was there. Under date of June 2nd, and bearing the post mark of British South Africa, and having all the trimmings of a foreign dispatch, his brother Philip Johnson, Jr., received a letter indicating that "Baby" had reached the last tangible point in the world. It is to be remembered that his present location, Cape Town, is as geography teaches about the "getting-off" place on this earth. "Faby being so young for such an undertaking, is to be complimented for his nerve and his ultra small-town ideas. He stands seven feet (shoes on or off). In his letters he says that he will next summer plan a trip to the North Pole, and then settle down until someone finds some more land. He also advises that his correspondence be sent in turn to Bombay, where he makes his next port-thence to Greece, Italy, Spain, England and the States. Further commenting upon his world-wide travel, as to any hardships or irregularities (although that at times his capital was so low as to be almost negligible) he says he has never as much as experienced an ordinary sneeze.

The statement is considered very significant as representing the leadership of one of the greatest southern denominations, with a membership of 2,500,000 and an indelible attitude of the best people of the south toward Tuskegee and other Negro institutions.

SATURDAY, JULY Thousands of Families Leaving Land of Blighted Dreams, Seeking Equa Greatest Migratory Movement in History of U. S. in Full Swing as 'Empty' Pleas Fail. SILENT, BUT HAPPY (Crushader Service) MEMPHIS, JULY 19—Like the Israelites fleeing from the bondage in Egypt, the Negroes of the South are striking en masse in search of the promised, or of a batter, land. Deserting their homes and packing their belongings in quilts and bags—leaving what they cannot so pack—and carrying them on their backs as they travel, thousands and thousands of Negro laborers and cropper-farmers have left former bitter associations and have followed the lure of higher wages and incomparably better social and educational conditions and facilities in the Norttih; the land of promise. Restricted immigration has reacted favorably for the Negro by creating a market for colored labor in the manufacturing districts. They are traveling north as individuals, as families, and—even as communities in spite of all that the white South is doing to hamper the migration. In the very face of the advice of Negro editors and preachers, who have been bought by the Southern planters and manufacturers to fight the exodus, the masses continue to move out of the Southern hell. Railroad officials in Memphis estimate the movement from this point as 1,500 weekly. Every train has its quota. The situation is the same throughout the South. Saturday nights, always the night of nights with the race, find special train bearing from six to eight hundred jubilant but strangely silent adventurers.

The Bible accepted, God's Spirit, the Universe, is spirit made or created. All things were made by (God) Spirit. Man, a component part, the highest expression in the wisdom of (God) Spirit, was made a living soul. He manifests on earth plane a material body, functioning through spirit, and the same spirit that functions through the material, does not lose its identity at transition. Man is a living soul. Should one elect to change residence or move from America to Japan, do we assume the party is dead by his removal? Would it be impossible for one to return to his former place of residence and renew acquaintance? The Bible accepted, records through and through Spirit Phenomena. Angels or Spirits walking and talking to mortals, materialize and then de-materialize—read Genesis, 3rd chapter, 8th verse—Genesis, 18th chapter—Genesis, 32nd chapter, "He maketh His angels spirits"— Psalm 104, 4th verse. "I am God, I change not." "Man was made a living soul." Spiritualism, through mediums and teachers, demonstrates Spirit Phenomena, and is the one and only system proving and supporting its affirmations. Shall we accept man's teaching? John, 6th chapter, 34th verse. When we see God, Spirit, manifest everywhere, and His wisdom in the making, May your souls unfold, to awaken to these truths as recorded. Man was made a living soul. "I am the same, yesterday, today and forever."

July 11—Another station of one of the most famous institutions that ever rescheduled into Indiana—the underground railroad for running slaves into the northern states—has passed.

It contained secret closets, secret cellars and in the war period a secret tunnel, which led to the river.

ANADARKO, OK., July 19—A grand jury ordered by Gov. J. C. Walton to investigate masked violence in Caddo County was impaneled here late today and started its inquiry with virtually the entire citizenship of the county viewing its activities from two opposing positions. Local residents declare that sentiment never has been so divided as today. Divergencies that appeared more than a year ago with the organization of units of the Ku Klux Klan here were accentuated Saturday evening when two public fist fights among four supporters and enemies of the Klan brought from Frank Hefley, Chief of Police, a threat to ask for state troops if the incident is repeated. Both encounters were staged on the steps of the Post Office, resulting from arguments over the Klan. Large crowds, representing both factions, witnessed them. Police interference is believed to have prevented more serious trouble. Opponents of the Klan about a month ago formed an organization known as the "Loyal Blues". Its announced purpose was to combat the klan locally. It is not known how many members, either organization lists, but both are conceded to be strong. No outward activity has been attributed to either the klan or the "Loyal Blues" since the organization of the latter society. The grand jury constitutes the second step in the state's investigation of alleged mob violence in Cadio County. A court of inquiry, conducted recently by an Assistant State Attorney General failed to throw light on the reported whipping of Claud Nathan, son of a well known merchant here.

VENUE, CITY or Hemlock 9015 Hemlock 727 That such a campaign is needed in Texas is seen from the following statement made in 1920 by Wilbur T.

Pearson and Williams To Workon Mound Contest Between Leading Semi-Pro Clubs Will Help Decide District Champions — Both Teams on Edge. Lovers of independent baseball are in for a rare treat Saturday at Barney Dreyfus' ball park, when the Homestead Grays, crack semi-pro club, and the championship Beaver Falls Elks are scheduled to meet at the series of games which will go a long way towards deciding the independent championship of this section. With Pearson, who was given a try-out by the Pittsburgh Pirates this spring, on hand for mound duty, and with such stars as "Jimmy" Beeson, or Federal league shortstop Ziggy Walker, both pitcher outfielder, and a host of other players of this calibre, the game looms as the best attraction in this district, and a crowd, even larger than that which turned out to see the Grays and Bellevue battle at the same park last Saturday, is expected to witness this clash between the two teams. Baselon on a big league scale is in for the fans, and all the high lights concurrent with major league ball is on tap. First Meeting Since 1921 The meeting of the Grays and the "World's Semi-Pro Champs" Saturday afternoon will mark the first time the two clubs have opposed each other since 1921, when they were returned to the field. Since that time, both teams have greatly augmented both their defensive and offensive strength. "The Elks won the "championship" last season by virtue of their victorious march through all opposition on the nation-wide elimination series. This series was between clubs from practically every city in the country. He was the winner. The Elks have yet to lose a game at this season, and their record thus far this season has bordered on the sensational. The club, known practically throughout the United States, is now right in the midst of their stiff campaign, and a victory Saturday will give them an edge over the Graves, considered in many hunters, the Hunters, Manager Posey has been sitting towards this game with the guilt that his club is at present going if their fastest clip. The players realize the importance of the game and are kept up to highest tension. Manager Posey's club this year is many points stronger than his 1921 aggression, as the Elks will and cut, and it is just possible that a great will be seen in their lineup. Leyton Williams is slated to epic Pearson. HOLY CROSS NINE WINS FROM NORTH SIDE, 7-2 * One of the features of the late Holy Cross stiticic Tuesday at Homefield.

Pittsburgh, Pa. SOME OF THE STARS WITH THE HOMESTEAD GRAYS This group shows some of the players who have been responsible for the sensational showing of the Homestead Grays this season. From left to right, they are: "Scrappy" Brown, formerly with the Baltimore Black Sox, whose brilliant work at short has rejuvenated the Gray infield; "Laudie" Walker, hard-hitting Wilkinsburg lad, who has been playing all positions this year; "Lefty" Williams, star southpaw, who will pitch against Beaver Falls Saturday; Capt. "Jap" Washington, whose fielding, hitting and clever handling of the team afield has won for him many admirers; and Cannady, the most versatile man on the club. Cannady can play any position and play it better than the average player. His hitting ability makes him doubly dangerous. Cannady was formerly with the Tate Stars of Cleveland. Grays Stopped By Bellevue In Thirteenth,9-6 In the historic "million-dollar" baseball park, made famous by Hans Wagner, "Babe" Adams and other figures of baseball prominence, and with a crowd of close to 4,000 partisan fans looking on, the Homestead Grays and the crack Bellevue club stungged for 13 long, strenuous, soul-stirring innings last Saturday afternoon, before the latter club was returned a winner, 9-6. Brickley's texas leaguer over second base in that fateful inning, the bases jammed, and a fit of wild runs across the bases won, overcome a two-run lead in their half of the ninth inning to tie the score. A sensational one-handed catch of a sizzling liner by Capt. "Jap" Washington, of the Grays, a pretty piece of fielding by "Win" Harrison and Cannady, which turned a sure hit in the second inning, the hopped Bellevue rally, and the lone more work of Steve Swetonic and Cannady, who relieved Clark in the second inning, marked the high lights of a game, which will go down in the memory of the cosmopolitan gathering who saw the game, as a few rows. The Grays started the ball rolling in the very first inning, when Washington's double, W. Harris' single and Cannady's long sacrifice fly counted two runs. Bellevue came right back, scoring one run in the second, two in the third, two in the fourth and one in the fifth. The Grays, meanwhile, had managed to score more runs in the fifth and sixth innings. With Swetonic pitching masterly ball, and with the Grays trailing by a two-point margin in the ninth, fans started to leave. But with "Scrappy" Brown on first, "Laudie" Walker hit a curve ball a mile-second down the third base foul line, and when the excitement blew over, Brown had scored, while Walker had reached third. He scored a moment later on Washington's sacrifice fly to center. Both teams battled until the thirteenth without scoring.

July 15. -Indianapolis won the first game of the series from the Kansas City Monarchs here today by a seven-to-two score. Kansas City started off like sure winners, when after the player had been arrested, Johnston tripled to left and McNair drove Cooper's first pitch high over the right field fence for a home run, scoring Johnston ahead of him. This ended Kansas City's scoring for the day, as Cooper, assisted by the fielding of Charleston, applied the calcsine in great style, allowing three scattered hits for the mainder of the game. Charleston's Catch Kansas City threatened it to forge ahead in the fifth, when the first two batters got on, on a pass and a single. Mendez sacrificed. With runners on second and third, one out, Hawkins hit a low line drive to left chest, and the ball cracked the hit making a shooting catch as he tore in. Johnston flew out of third, ending Kansas City's last scoring chance. How A's Scored The A's scored one in the third on Moore's error, singles by Cooper and Burnett and Williams' sacrifice.

Tally Holmes Defeats Champ In Exhibition Sensational New Yorker Has Changed Style of Play in Last Year. By EDGAR B. BROWN National, Illinois, New York, Ohio, Indiana Men's Singles Tennis Champion BULLETIN BALTIMORE, Md., July 19—Talley Holmes' chop stroke beat Edgar G. Brown's driving game in a thrilling and exciting exhibition set 7-5 at Druid Hill Park, Baltimore, md. last Saturday. Washington got revenge on Baltimore's victory last week in inter-city matches. Dr. Rhettia Baltimore, No. 8 in A. T. A rankings, played Brown an 8-8 tie exhibition set. A great crowd was present to witness the match. WASHINGTON, July 19—Talley Holmes, "the mighty," five years national tennis champion, shows he is a really great player. Defeated by Mr. Clark, of Jamaica, in 1920 by a very close margin, he merely came back in 1921 more determined. Clark did not return to this country and he won easily. In 1922, expecting again the return of Mr. Clark, he had prepared to regain his laurels. Mr. Clark did not return, but Holmes had won the game, but possibly a little faster in our first encounter in New York, where I won in two straight sets, 62-2, 64-1. In Philadelphia at the National tournament the following week I again defeated Mr. Holmes three sets to one. Mr. Holmes has beaten me three times during my stay in Washington thus far. Out of eleven sets I have been able to win only one and that a very close margin 9-7. He has demonstrated his versatility and ability by developing an effective and reliable backhand. Holmes has also carded his former method of "bushing" the net on every shot. In other words, observation and study have demonstrated to this great court general the obsolete and unsound principles of a net attack against an all around, fast driving game. Ted Thompson, who with Dr. Perry will motor in his new Oldsmobile to Chicago in August for the National is playing doubles this year with Mr. Holmes, as Sylvester Smith is out of the city this summer. Thompson having won the National junior two years will play in the Senior event from now on and from my observation here I can again repeat what I said this winter. Thompson is second to none of the ability and style, but needs some of Rev. Walker's generalship. He will be either one, two, three or four in the 1923 rating. While East I will probably play doubles with Professor John Wilkerson, who is the hardest hitting player in those parts. the most speedy remedy we know for Constipation, Billiousness, Colds, Headaches and Material Fever.

While our partisan views quite generally and the other fellow's source of reasoning, it looks though nothing will prevent Wills from getting his The challenger has been a victim of a combination of all visited upon a capable aspirant for the heavyweight of the. Once out in front by sheer ability, it took several considered as a possibility, despite demonstrates that the many other companies made the right group and the wild name Siki. This combination of itself has been of Wills like a ghost in the night. But perhaps the most he's been the "BUSINESS" side of the fight game. The was considered a hard man of skill, height, reach ability, together with a powerful, sentiment-mood, hardly luke warm in his interest, made Dempsey and Stepping Wills a very easy one. Sportsmen of fair and tolerant sent rated the logical opponent long before the Carpentier fight. For the use of an international light with an Allied war he was not with him. It was the other one which was a will of the same, and with Wills into the temporary discard. That will shunted Wills into the way, and good purses possible.

Again, that was "BUSINESS" the will of the same. The first thing to eliminate is eliminated by "Wild Bull" Firley, a hodes-further ill-for the patient.

And in case of a Dempsey who carried over another long winter, which will allow ment of another lemon crop for the summer of 1811. Another angle is worth considering. Kearns will a Wills-Dempsey fight, himself, or be very close to his reasons with much logic that the battle between him and the first time since winning the championship the title will be come, and the effect of such a condition on the title will a Wills-Dempsey fight will draw a tremendous thrill and more than a fighter's share out of that match when he can be secured for a title match for a more song; so anxious lenger for a crack at the crown. Rickard will not put Wills on with Dempsey if he can in any event, it looks like only one match stands in the way ting his chance, and that is the Dempsey-Firpo go. It certainly a pretty turn of fate that he will be for a title match and Wills be delegated the task of being prejudiced America the title he had no chance to win American (without a military record).

New York Defeats New Jersey Stars In Tournament Before a large gallery Saturday af. :rnoon, last, New York easily defeated the pick of New Jersey in the first of a series of interstate tournaments, thus dispelling for the time being, any claim that the latter may be inclined to make to the supremacy in the east. The tournament was held on the grounds of the Ideal Tennis Club in West 133th street. Of the 19 matches played, New York won 14, Jersey 3, and had to be called on account of darkness. Be in lossing or sersey had nothing to be ashamed of as a numbset of the matches lost went to three sets and a goodly number of games in each set to deuce. Jersey can also gather some consolation from the fact that the three matches won were no fakes but that three of New York's best were there in feature. Frank Jones, who is rated No. 2 in New York State players, was defeated by a youngster, Farrai, and Mrs. Madison, also rated No. 2, was defeated by Mrs. Thornhill. The third match lost to New York was the defeat under Terry. These players will have an opportunity to get even during the present week, in the Ideal T. C. tournament which begins on Monday, July 16, and ends on Saturday, unless rain prevents. The matches contested in the Interstate tournament, were; Men's singles and doubles; ladies singles and doubles and mixed doubles. We were able to see for the first time the new mixed double team of Smith and Crawford, and also the veteran team of Jones and Conikit, both teams played well, but must play together at every opportunity in they play at the hareels from the Western team. We saw Miss Crawford standing up unfinchingly-before the cannon-ball service of Hill, and we marvel at the improvements in her playing ability in the past three seasons. With the opening of the Ideal tournament, the tennis season is in full swing and the topnotches will all be busy up to the latter part of August, when they journey to the Windy City for the coronations. Following in close succession, the present tournament will come the Philadelphia, New York State and Washington tournaments. How many New Yorkers will make the trip to Chicago? Will be hard to say time but it will be Smith and Frank Jones, George Smith and Edgar Gomes should top the list among the new, while Mrs. Wade, Mrs. Conick, Mrs. Madison and Mrs. Leonard are almost sure to make the trip. With these eight players will rest the destiny of New York for the year 1923. And every event can be taken care of in a manner that will satisfy. At last New York's rating committee has come from under cover and given us the ratings for 1922, which we publish herewith. We can say for the committee, in spite of its tardiness, it has made an honest effort to treat the players fairly and can not, therefore, become a subject TURDAY, JULY. 21, 1923.

Noted Character Of Prize Ring To handle Moore's Famous Stable "Ed" Martin Arrives in New York to Round Danny Edwards into Shape for Big Bout at Polo Grounds When Colored Flash Meets Johnny Curtain in Semi-final to Dundee-Crique Fight. (Special to the Courier) NEW YORK, July 19—New York sat up and took particular notice one day last week when a train brought to town one of the most famous and noted characters of the prize ring in the person of "Denver Ed" Martin, the man who gave Jack Johnson two of his greatest hits, the person who some years ago held the attention of the sporting writers on the Metropolitan papers. put the finishing touches on Danny Edwards for the big fight at Tom O'Rourke's Polo Grounds Club when the colored dish is sent against Irish Johnny Curtin in the semi-final to the Dundee-Crique encounter on July 26. The card arranged by O'Rourke has attracted a great deal of attention of attention of people all over Greater New York and the Polo Grounds will see one writers on the Metropolitan papers. Martin created a sensation some time ago when at the age of 44 he knocked out four opponents in jig time, the last of the bating being Tiny Herman, a heavyweight who is being treated the same prisoner in his case as the primary object of the coming of "Danver Ed" Martin to New York City at this time is to take over the stable of George P. Moore, the world's leading colored fight manager. From now on Martin will devote his entire time to rounding such fine fighters as Danny Edwards, Kid Buller, Willie Sailor Darden, Larry Barden, Bill American flyweight who recently signed up with Moore into condition for their many battles. In this line of work "Denver Ed" is conceded to be one of the leading exponents in this country, not even barring such figures as the great "Bob" Armstrong, who left town recently to take over the training of Jack Johnson for his fight in New Jersey some time next month. In the years that New York has missed Ed he has been in the employ of George Moore and Sara Foster, who trained the boy before the direction in Portland, manager at his club in Portland, Oregon. For four years Ed also acted as trainer and instructor at the Olympic Gymnasium, while for three years he was official referee at the Milwaukee arena, biggest fight club in the world run by a colored man and which, was very successful under George Moore.

SMITHFIELD STREET PITTSBURGH EIGHT Foreign Advertising Representative, W. B. Ziff Company, 608 South Dearborn Street, Chicago, 321 Victoria Building, St. Louis, Mo.; 420 Long- nere Building, New York. Notice to G. O. P. The recent election in Minnesota ought to serve notice upon the leaders of the Grand Old Party that many things have happened since 1920. The election ought to have special significance for Mr. Harding, who had just closed his western tour enroute to Alaska. A one Mr. Johnson defeated a regular, old-line Republican, and it was known that Senator LaFollette sponsored his cause. This means that a progressive defeated a conservative. LaFollette is still a factor, whether he remains in the Grand Old Party line-up, or gets into strange company in 1924. But Minnesota is not the only "hand writing on the wall." A brief review will remind us that others have fallen from the public pay-roll because progressive ideas and slightly radical views have relegated old-time leadership to the rear. In Delaware Senator DuPont fell, and a democrat took his place. In New Jersey, Senator Freylinghausen went down, after a fight on the wet and dry issue. In New York, the old-timer, Mr. Calder, was defeated handily. Up in Vermont, death took the time-worn Dillingham, while out in Indiana, Mr. New was led to the same slaughter which played havoc with DuPonts The Grand Old Party lost McCumber and after death claimed Knute Nelson there was hardly a quorum of the old-timers left. Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts knows how narrowly he escaped a sound thrashing. The only victory was won out in Ohio. These changes, and all of them recent, indicate that not all is well with the Grand Old Party. The leaders of the Republican party had better take stock before entering into another convention. The recent history made at the polls tells us that the voters have begun to appreciate the power of the independent ballot, cast free from all partisan influences. In 1924, some of the recent history will repeat itself, if present surface indications mean anything. Least of all must be considered the promised deflection of the Negro-vote. The Harding administration can not explain many of the humiliations visited upon the loyal black voter; nor can the old-time Negro leaders any longer handle the rising generation of earnest thinkers and intelligent voters. Ample notice has been served the G. O. P. Telling the Truth The average Negro reader knows that the Atlanta Constitution is admitted to be the fairest southern daily journal on the color problem. If the Constitution discusses the race question, the discussion is fair, free from bias, and strikingly accurate, even to the detail. Negroes know this to be true, and whatever attitude is taken by this journal is respected by both white and black, the country over. On the question of the treatment of Negroes in the South, the Atlanta Constitution made the following observation after there had been issued by some responsible Negroes of Georgia a few reasons why the charge of improper treatment had been made. We quote: The complaint against the average housing conditions for Negroes, both in the cities and the rural communities, is also well founded. It is useless to point out a few high-class Negro homes and pretend that they are typical. They are not, and we only fool ourselves when we shut our eyes to the wretched hovels in which the large majority of the Negroes live. It would, in truth, be the best investment we could make to raze these insanitary, ugly, disease and crime-breeding shacks and provide, in their stead, simple and comfortable homes. The Atlanta Constitution would never publish in its editorial columns any such statement or facts as above quoted, unless the facts had been investigated and found to be absolutely true. We take it that the comment was justified, or the editor never would have made it. This comment does not sustain the position of other southern editors who claim that the North is no place for Negroes; that they are cremated when they die, and forced to live in hovels that surpass in filth and disease the cabins of the South. This frank statement of the Constitution rather sustains the claim of the Negroes who are leaving the South. It certainly does not deny the charge that the South is neglecting the black citizen in all the higher essentials of right living and good citizenship. Such frank and fair comment as the above will do more good for the Negro and the South than all the theoretical essays the New York papers could ever publish. The truth about the situation will kill off the liars and the propagandists; it will awaken in the whites a true sense of their own duty as well as the duty of the other fellow. A true statement of the truth will convince all that the sooner all are fair, just and honorable with each other, the sooner the unrest will cease and order be restored. The truth will drive out the darker shadows which are now driving out the Negroes. Lloyd George on the Jew There has arisen another champion for the cause of the Jew—the hated Jew. The new champion, if he may be called new, is none other than the little man who guided the destinies of Great Britain during the World War. We refer to Lloyd George. The little man who once ruled from 10 Downing Street, leaves nothing to be surmised in his recent attack upon those who seek to discount the Jew. His words are full of sting, rebuke and sarcastic venom, expressing, we imagine, his personal feeling toward those who seek to decry the Jew for purely racial reasons. Speaking of the fanatics who can never see anything good in the Jew, Lloyd George said: Still, in the sight of these fanatics, Jews of today can do nothing right. If they are rich they are birds of prey. If they are poor they are vermin. If they are in favor of a war, that is because they want to exploit the bloody feuds of Gentiles to their own profit. If they are anxious for peace they are either instinctive cowards or traitors. If they give generously—and there THE PITTSBURGH COURTER THE Courier GREATEST WEEKLY WHAT THEY SAID LAST WEEK The National Baptist Voice thinks the Tuskegee Hospital mess should be given to some other race. The Negro race does not deserve the hospital, says the Voice. We do not agree with this statement, but we agree that the hospital has brought more embarrassment than it has benefits. The Voice says: the hullabaloo about the hospital at Tuskegee is so ridiculous that its solution may be easily found by giving it to some other race other than the Negro race. The Negro race does not want the hospital at Tuskegee at all. In order to relieve Director General Hines of any more mental agony in trying to solve the situation, let the hospital, we EMPHASIZE, be given to any other race on the face of the earth save that of the Negro race. The Negro race does not deserve this hospital under the present condition. The Government would save its face by so doing, turning it over to some other race than the one for which it was originally intended. Alderman George' W. Harris, recently retired by the court, offers us some straight talk on the Klux and the Veterans' Hospital near Tuskegee. He says: The Ku-Klux Klan may raze the veterans' hospital. They may burn down Tuskegee Institute. BUT THIS WILL NOT BE DONE. Therefore this must be discounted. THERE IS BUT ONE CURE LEFT for the terrible situation. The black veterans who now suffer because they fought to make the world safe for democracy should boycott the Tuskegee Hospital. They should refuse to men and as Americans they should not hurt their women until the white South has come to its knees as the Republican administration at Washington has mustered enough courage to carry our governmental policies and protect government reservations. We ask the colored press of the country to unite with us in this demand. We ask the colored people throughout the length and breadth of this land to take care in other ways of their loved ones now dying or recovering from their service for the United States. We agree that we, as a people, should see to it that our disabled sons shall not suffer a further insult at the hands of a few race haters. We have always admired the Dallas Express; and we admire it yet. But the "editor's note" leading off the Roscoe Simmons stuff last week gave us nausea. To carry a double column of "nothing" about Texas by Simmons who began his rambling with an "AD" for the Defender, reflects upon the business judgment of The Dallas Express. Perhaps, the boss was away, and Roscoe slipped one over on the "assistant" boss. Roscoe tells us Texas has a fine Jim Crow law. How can injustice be "fine"? Almost every day we see some account of the "oxodus from the South," and the "real reasons" for it. We are tired reading what northernists think of the reasons; or, white thought they would have the world believe to be the reason. We had white thought the reasons were well understood by this time it seems there are a few "social workers," and a few "students of economics," although they never saw a southern cotton field, know more about Negroes and southern labor than Booker T. ever professed. The reason for the oxodus, as given by Negroes themselves, is as follows: (1) The Negro feels that his life is not safe in Mississippi, and that it may be taken with impunity at any time upon the slightest pretext or provocation by a white man. (2) The record filibuster, vote, and defeat by the Southern representation in the last Congress of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill has caused the Negro to believe that the South is irrevocably determined to pernuate therein lynch-law and mob violence. (3) The Negro has generally despaired of obtaining his right as a citizen in this section. He has lost faith, and a few of the following facts all, tend to force him to this conclusion. Under the third reason there are given nineteen specific complaints, including the disproportionate division of the public school fund; the absence of reformatory institutions for Colored juvenile delinquents in face of the fact that the white youth have a reformatory costing more than a million dollars; the absence of any establishment for Colored tuberculosis patients; the lack of any institution; for the feeble-minded Colored children; the lack of higher institutions of learning; the conditions of peonage, and use of educational facilities; exclusion from jury service. Now, if there are any who do not know the reasons, let them KNOW the TRUTH once and finally. The editorial expressions of The Florida Sentinel belies the usual excuse given by southern editors for their failure to give editorial attention to the dastardly treatment of Negroes by southern whites. There is real inspiration in the courage of the man who wrote the following in the last issue of The Florida Sentinel: FLORDA LEADS THE LYNCHERS In the report of the Department of Research for Tuskegee Institute just published covering lynching for the past six months of this year, Florida has the highest number of lynchings, seven. For this reason the purpose of the nineteenth camp is still fresh in the minds of the public and this lynching record comes out soon after. This is advertising Florida! The mayor need not ask for the $25,000 for advertising Jacksonville, the lynchers are doing it for us. Among causes for lynching was one that stated that a Negro had been lynched who posed as "a white man and did not know his place." Which gives force to our argument that such a crime, as lynching can not be justified or condoned for any cause without the aftermath that it will soon take in every crime. As we said it was threatening the very foundations of our government, and the record of lynching in the report that there were 12 Negro men and one Negro woman, men. Thus it becomes more and more a disgrace, more and more a thing which not only Negroes, but whites as well must bend every effort to stamp out.

If they don't give—then what would one expect of a Jew? If labor is oppressed by great capital, the greed of the Jew is held responsible. If labor revolts against capital—as it did in Russia—the Jew is blamed for that also. If he lives in a strange land he must be persecuted and pogrommed out of it. If he wants to go back to his own he must be prevented. Through the centuries, in every land, whatever he does or intends or fails to do, he has been pursued by the echo of the brutal cry of the rabble of Jerusalem against the greatest of all Jews—"Crucify Him!" When the leading Welshman of Europe takes such a decided stand against race prejudice, and exposes so severely the hatred upon which such a prejudice feeds, the Jews of the world may consider their cause well presented, and their day as a people decided nearly. The Negro may take courage from the incident. As rapidly as the Negro rises to meet each and every emergency; as rapidly as he solves his own problems as have the Jews; as soon as he makes his racial force felt as an agency in civilization, there will rise a Lloyd George to speak for the black and despised sons of Ham.

Harding has very properly appointed a staff of Negro doctors and officers to man it. The Haughty Caucasians of North Alabama are raising violent protests. They say that Anglo-Saxon supremacy is threatened; that the rule of the white man will receive a severe jolt if Negro professional men are permitted to attend Negroes in a Negro hospital. Some are becoming savage and are threatening that the Negro staff will be out supposably by the usual vicious methods that follow such threats. Of course, Senator Hefflin is a leader in this movement. Views of other Editors Our Colored Vote A small group of colored men who cailled upon Mr. Kendrick, who says he is a candidate for Mayor, the other day, stated that there are now upward of 140,000 colored voters in Philadelphia. The small group intimated that they controlled much the larger part of their 140,000 fellow-citizens of color. This would be a deplorable condition if true, but it is not true. No small group of colored men control a majority of the colored voters in Philadelphia. The curious might ask how is this Alabama community has endured for years a great Negro school conducted by Negro educators. What's the difference between a Negro hospital in control of Negroes? How does the one menace "white supremacy" more than the other? The difference becomes apparent, however, when one remembers that the school is maintained by private means, while the hospital staff will be paid by the United States Government. Then where the shoe pinches. "White supremacy" means that only white men must drive salaries from the United States treasury. There are government troops to be en out, even the job of caring for Negro soldiers, the exclusive right of white men must be recognized, according to the Democrats of Alabama. The condition is worse than that. A majority of the colored voters of Philadelphia are controlled by a small group of white men, leaders of the great Republican party in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. We did not know that anyone had been counting them lately, but since the colored men are are more politicians and practical in a way, we suppose their count of 140,000 colored voters is correct. Under the circumstances is it not urgently necessary that the voters of Philadelphia who own themselves COLORED as well as white, should wake up and start something likely to lead to the election of a new Mayor and new Councilmen who are not so much interested in controlling the votes of the 140,000 colored folks as they are in giving the black men, women and children of this city as well as the whites honest government, with efficiency enough at least to insure all of them decent localities in which to live and breathe healthy air? And then the South wonders that Negroes are migrating in such alarming numbers! It is a pity this attitude of Senator Helfin's constituents was not discovered before the Negro hospital was built in Alabama. Of course, it could even now be removed since there are plenty of communities in other parts of the country which would gladly receive But if that concession is made for the purpose of keeping peace and providing the Negro soldiers, the cost should be taken of the next appropriation which Alabama asks from the United States treasury.

The other these six civil rights organizations united in issuing that the conference, and made me chairman of the committee rangements which was vested with full and final power us agree that it might have been well to have a larger basis for the call of the conference. But it does seem other types of organization would gladly respond to the civil rights bodies without rivalry or unseasonal.
