Sellers M. Hall in full, stating that no partnership existed, and asking that the bill of complaint filed recently be dismissed, Charles Walker and "Cum" Posey, president and manager, respectively, of the Homestead Grays, had their "say" last week, when they filed their answer. Hall's suit against the Homestead Grays, charging breach of contract, the prominence of the parties involved, and the nation-wide reputation which the club enjoys, has aroused interest, both local and national, and the outcome of the case is being eagerly awaited by thousands of fans and interested readers the country over. The answer, as filed in court, follows: To the Honorables, the Judges of Said Court: The answer of respondents represents: First—We deny that we entered into a partnership with the plaintiff as alleged by him; and we allege that the alleged agreement of partnership marked "Exhibit A" was never consummated by the parties thereto. Said Exhibit A was simply a draft of a proposed agreement of partnership between the parties which was written by said C. W. Posey, Jr., and submitted to the plaintiff for the purpose of having three copies thereafter, and that one copy the delivered to each of them but plaintiff never had said typewritten copies made, never signed and delivered a copy of Exhibit A to either one of us and always refused to enter into the proposed partnership. We allege that no partnership relationship ever existed between the parties; that no accounting from either of the parties was ever requested or made; that no bills were ever paid nor checks ever signed by the three parties either on behalf of the Homestead Grays, or the Sellers Hall Gians; that plaintiff in every respect handled the affairs of the Sellers Hall Gians, and defendant in every respect handled the affairs of the Homestead Grays; that plaintiff in three times on April 23, 1923, refused to have anything to do with the said partnership.

C., Aug. 23.—An intensive campaign for new business in Pennsylvania is to be made by the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, of Washington, D. C., and to further this plan the stockholders, at a special meeting on Aug. 11, authorized an increase in the capital stock from $100,000 to $250,000. It is their aim to keep the company the greatest financial organization created, and the managed by colored men in the interest of the race. Twenty-five years ago the company was organized as the National Benefit Association by Mr. S. W. Rutherford, Virginia. His total capital was $6,00, but he was possessed of uniring energy and faith. He gathered around himself a few loyal supporters and then hustled out for business. His office furniture consisted of a table and a chair. His office equipment had to earn it by collecting policies and collecting premiums, which he did by pedalling his way about the city on an old bicycle. From that tiny beginning, by means of hard, steady work, intelligent organization, and high-grade personnel, the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, officered and conducted entirely by colored people and developed among men and women of the race, has grown into the large and commanding position which it occupies today, with an unbroken record of twenty-five annual benefits, 125,000 benefitted policy holders, and $20,000,000 of insurance in force. Its assets are $750,000, including several valuable real estate properties (Continued on Page 14, Col. 2). PETITE BILLIE!

J., Aug. 23. Suit to recover $100,000 for the death of her husband, Edward Lawrence, was begun here Saturday by Mrs. Mathilda Lawrence - Walker against Charles Cooper Spear, held in jail on the charge of killing Lawrence September 17, 1910. Dr. Spear, a white man, recently surrendered after an absence of 13 years, and through counsel asked for dismissal of the murder charge on the ground of self-defence. No decision has been made, and it is now learned that the state will oppose the motion when the case comes up this week. Mr. Lawrence-Walker seeks this sum for the care of her daughter, Eleanor Lawrence, 12 years old, who was born shortly after the fatal shooting at the Spear farm at Ellisburg. Mrs. Walker, who married again after the death of her husband, charges that the anguish she underwent so affected the child that Eleanor is subject to epileptic fits and that she will always be a great care. A sheriff's clerk served the papers on Dr. Spear in his cell in the county jail. Prosecutor Wescott said: "When the defendant made his motion to abandon the indictment a week ago the state was not in a position to do much to the contrary. But the finding since of witnesses has produced sufficient to warrant me in asking that the indictment against Local Organization To Hold Big Meeting The Fifth Ward Citizens' Protective organization will meet in Watt Street school, Thursday evening, August 23, at 8 o'clock.

The latter is serving 15 years at the Leesburg prison farm for the murder of Florence Johnson, a colored woman, at Bridgeton, in 1915. Cooper and Stevenson are held under $1,000 bail as material witnesses. Mr. Wescott refused to go into detail on the statements of Cooper and Stevenson, but said their testimony does not support the contention. Dr. Spear that his killing of Lawrence was justified. It is understood they stated that Lawrence was shot by Spear as he opened the kitchen door. Also, they both deny that Lawrence broke into the farm house. FORMER SLAVE DIES MARTINS FERRY, O., Aug. 23. —Fenton Fields, aged 96, a former slave, is dead at St. Clairsville. He was born in what was then Virginia, between Harpers Ferry and Charlestown.

Lynchers Shoot Two In Georgia "Reign of Terror" Sweeps Southland as Hooded Bands Hold Sway—Governor May Take Drastic Measures. ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 23.—Two Negroes were lynched in Georgia Friday. Early Friday morning a crowd of men broke in the Blackley county jail at Cochran, Georgia, took Alek Harris, charged with "attacking" a white woman, carried him 12 miles from town on the Dublin road, strung him to a tree and shot him to death. This mob was said to have been disguised and traveled in about 12 automobiles, from which the license numbers had been removed. Second Lynching The second Lynching occurred in Houston when the Green was taken from officers, carried to the house of the woman in he is "alleged" to have attacked. There he was strung to a tree and shot to death. This mob is said to have been composed of about 75 men. The two counties in which the Lynchings took place are in the center of the state, close to each other. Wrecked Jail Bleckley was serving a term on the chain gang for burglary at the time he was alleged to have committed the crime for which he was lynched. It took place last Wednesday. This mob tore a hole in the county jail, through a steel cage to get the man. The sheriff was absent and no other jail officials were on duty, according to the information. In both cases when the sheriffs reached the scene the mobs were said already to have dispersed. Governor's Statement "I expect to use all the power in my office to prevent disorder and lawlessness in Georgia" Gov. Walker said Saturday on hearing of the lynching of Green. The governor said he would make an investigation. He announced no official reports had been received at his office. The governor' said any good citizen regrets lynching as the courts should be permitted to proceed in an orderly manner, no matter how trying the circumstances may be in some instances. NOTE TO SWEETHEART CAUSES MAN'S ARREST NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Detectives arrested · Bennett Parker, chauffeur, Sunday afternoon, and charged him with the theft of more than $11,000 worth of jewelry and currency from the home of a wealthy white civil engineer of Washington. The police say that when they went to Parker's furnished room, they found about $3,250 in cash, and $7,000 in jewelry. The detectives traced the man through his sweetheart, to whom he wrote after he arrived in this city. TEN CENTS A COPY COUNTRY EART ATTENS TO ENGEANCE MER ADMIRER 42-Year-Old Man Accused Pretty 19-Year-Old Girl of 'Love Affairs'—Saved From Angry Neighbors by Police. ____' WASHINGTON, D.C., Aug. 23—This city is in the throes of a "mystery" romance and shooting affray which may involve some of the "higher-ups" it is alleged. The hidden romance, with its tragic sequel, was brought to light last week, following the shooting of Miss Estelle Edlin, pretty 10-year-old favorite, by Hudson Hansberry, 42 years old, of Malden, N. Y., a "rmr admirer. Finds "Other Man" at Home ... According to the police, Hudson, a 10-year-old sweetheart of Malden, was a victim of the gunman, pursued to the gate rumors of Miss Edlin's alleged intimacy with another man. Following his arrival in Washington, he went to the girl's home, and there found the other man. He began to upbraid the girl for her actions, police allege, and threatened to expose her relations with him. The girl, enraged by the threats, left with her and went to detain, where she came down, with her hone under an apron, which she had put on, the man in a fit of jealous rage and fearing that she might be armed, fired at her. Pursued by Angry Mob Hansberry then fled the house, only to be followed by an increasing crowd of residents in the neighborhood where the girl lived, and among whom she was very popular. In his anger, he fired a shot into the crowd; one who was struck the angry crowd moved the thunderstorms of a mob and only the prompt arrival of the police saved the man from bodily harm. Gardner's Fairness Appeals to Voters Among the colored voters of Allegheny county District Attorney Samuel H. Gardner is held in high account of the fictive wield the race and his straightforward manner in dealing with the public business. He was raised a country lad in a loyal state and it is a matter of pride that no outrages resulting from race prejudice have occurred in this county since he assumed office. Certain it is that offenders who would attempt to incite crime out of this prejudice would promptly pay the penalty with the present district attorney. Mr. Gardner himself seldom discusses these matters. Since the judges of the common pleas court appointed him to the office made vacant by the elevation of Harry to the chair of the district attorney has been too busy with the affairs of his office to indulge in political fence building or "shop talk." Naturally he is a modest man. That is one reason, his friends say, why he is so well qualified for the important office he holds. His modestly plus his experience and personal integrity, is the prime reason why the judges agreed unanimously on his appointment. Mr. Gardner has been prevailed upon by his friends to stand for re-election. There will be an opportunity for the people of the county to ratify the choice of the judges. Being a steadfast Republican of Republican stock—that supposed a brah-ham Lincoln, he is seeking the nomination of that party. It is not a factional contest insofar as Mr. Gardner is concerned. His obligation is to the people and the people generally, irrespective of party affiliations, are uniting in his support. The district attorney's office has made a distinctive record under Mr. Gardner's direction and when the recess was taken June 30 the number of cases disposed of exceed that for a similar period in the history of the county. Gov. McRae Welcomes Delegates to Hot Springs, Arkansas—Head of Tuskegee Makes First Statement About Veterans' Hospital. COMBINED CAPITAL OF NEGRO BUSINESS VALUED AT $60,000,000 HOT SPRINGS, Arkansas, Aug. 23.—Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, was re-elected president of the National Negro Business League at the final session. Charles Banks, Mound Bayou, Miss.; C. H. Brooks, Philadelphia; R. R. Church, Memphis; L. E. Williams, Savannah, Ga.; O. M. Soddy, Memphis; W. L. Cohen, New Orleans; A. E. Malone, St. Louis; J. W. Lewis, Moundsville, Pa., and C. Gaines, Georgia, were elected vice presidents. Albon L. Holsey, Tuskegee, Ala., secretary; John L. Webb, Hot Springs, treasurer, and E. H. Gilbert, Brooklyn, registrar. TWO "If you just have to go, go; but remember! Twenty-five years will mark a marvelous change in Arkansas; powerful industrial cities are going to be built up, drawing their strength from the state's natural resources and water power, and the man who boasts a home in Arkansas will be the envy of the world. If you must go, go, but remember! When you get ready to come back, and you probably will, the latch string will be hanging out." Such were the words passed by Governor T. C. McRae, of the State of Arkansas, to delegates to the National Negro Business League on the occasion of its twenty-fourth annual meeting. The governor's speech on the opening night told of the glories of the state of Arkansas, the wonder of the City of Hot Springs, the "Fountain of Youth" and health for all the people, a national reservation in which the citizens of America are the stockholders, of the progress of the Negro race in its fifty-eight years of progress and of the hope that the Negroes of Arkansas would not follow their fellows who are seeking broader opportunity in the North, but would remain at home to be the future beneficiaries of that greatness and plenty to which the state of Arkansas is destined. He hoped they wouldn't go, but if they did, he assured them they would be welcomed hard. The outstanding features of this year's sessions were the speeches of Governor McKee (this latter being taken to crystalize, to some extent, the attitude of southern white people in this section), of Major Robert R. Moton, President of the league, and the actual adoption of a program calculated during the next year to bring into play an aggressive attack on the problems of the Negro business man. Naturally, much interest centered around what Dr. Moton would have to say this year. In some strangely unaccountable way, the entire delegation to the convention was anxious to hear a word from the Tuskegee leader, and the head of the league, on the now famous Tuskegee Hospital situation. Dr. Moton used figures in referring to the progress of the league since its founding by Booker T. Washington twenty-four years ago. At that time, he said, there was not more than $20,000 business organizations operated by colored people with an aggregate capital of $10,000,000, whereas today there are 60,000 such business, with a combined capital of $60,000,000. Some regret was expressed that in cities where there are large groups of Negroes more has not been done, but the hope was held forth that there was an awakening coming. "We have now 72 successful Negro banks" explained Dr. Moton. "We should and could have 700. There are many cities with a large Negro population, particularly in the North, where leaders in business among Negroes could accomplish any reasonable business result, if properly managed. I think of the great city of New York, with its great Negro population in Harlem; there ought to be and there undoubtedly will be in the near future in that city a large financial corporation, a banking and trust company operated by our people; and with the success that has already been attained by the Association of Trade and Commerce under the wise leadership of John E. Nail. Cities like Durham, Savannah, Atlanta, Richmond, Norfolk, with many others are setting a notable example in the possibilities of the race to accomplish large results. "The feeling among some Negro business men to expect Negroes to trade with them just because they were Negroes was deprecated on every hand. There was an apt realization of the Negro in business delivering the goods along with other merchants if he expected to receive the trade of those around him."

K. COLORED DOLL CO. 2289 Seventh Ave. New York City Dr. Moton's remarks on the Tuskegee hospital included the following: He declared that he had refrained from public announcement because he felt it better to restrict his talking to those who were in a position to accomplish something. "In all of this affair," he asserted, "two great motives have been actuating those of us at Tuskegee who have had directly to deal with the situation. The first was the conviction that Negroes have a right above all other people to serve their own and, second, the necessity of preserving intact those relations of good will and mutual helpfulness between white people and black people at Tuskegee, in the South, and all over the country which was the outstanding achievement of the career of Booker Washington. "So far as the first motive goes, we have abundant evidence that our physicians and nurses are capable of rendering the services demanded. This is not only y own opinion, but it is the testimony of those in authority outside of the Negro race. I have standfastly and unswervingly taken that position from the very beginning and have said that by every right of sentiment and justice our physicians and nurses should have the opportunity to serve in that hospital, and I have made this assertion 'where it would mean most; namely, before the superintendent of the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, the director of the Veterans' bureau in Washington, and before the late, lamented President Harding himself. I stand on that position today and there is no man living who can make me change it, and there is no force on earth and in heaven that will make me surrender it. "On the other hand, there is the question of good will between the races to be considered. For 35 years, Washington so conducted the work at Tuskegee that the school and the town were constantly moving forward in hearty co-operation, and there were those among our white friends in the town of Tuskegee who were equally as staaffast in their determination that these harmonious relations should not be disturbed. Therefore, to avoid any possible rupture of these harmonious relations, I have avoided as far as possible any public sentiment on the situation; I have preferred to make my recommendations to those in authority who were in a position to adjust the matter on a satisfactory basis. And in every instance I have reinforced my recommendations with the statement that if Negro physicians were debarred from serving in this hospital it would be the occasion of great embarrassment to all concerned." At the conclusion of Dr. Moton's speech, the convention passed a resolution endorsing his stand in the controversy. A committee composed of Mr. S. Hunter, Bert Koidy, Jesse Jones, J. R. Mitchell, M. S. Stewart, George W. Davis and R. R. Wright, Sr., chairman, made itself personally responsible to the extent of eight thousand dollars by January 1, and to secure the best man in the country to put to work organizing local leagues. Real cash was put up. Irate Husband Kills Sister-In Law In Love Feud CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 23. — Mrs. Hattie Billard, 25 years old, of Dearborn street, fell mortally wounded late Sunday after William Hodgson, 39, her brother-in-law, had fired three bullets into her body.

Both doctors were arrested and are being held without bail on two charges—that of practicing medicine without a license and for performing a criminal operation.

He was at one time quarterman of laborers in the Navy, Yard, a position rarely held by colored men, if ever. He was earning a good salary and led the life of a bacchanalian. His frequent escapades with other women resulted in bitter wrangles between him and his wife. It was a life of constant conflict. The life that led the neighbors into the belief that he killed her to be rid of her. She was seen around home during the day prior to the night of her disappearance. At night she was missed and no trace of her has been discovered until this day, it is said. Ridley stoutly maintained that her disappearance was as much mystery to him as to any one else. He claimed that she was left for work. Others denied this statement and asserted that he made away with her during the night. Shortly after being released from jail Ridley purchased a Ford Sedan and proceeded to joy ride numerous women. He married Miss Folk in less than a year after the disappearance of his first wife. People who knew the man well describe his tragic death at the hands of a woman as a "just retribution."

(Wip-Courier News Service) CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 23.—A three-cornered love affair reached a dramatic and thrilling climax late Sunday afternoon in a taxicab which sped through the holiday crowds on State street, unaware of the drama which was being unfolded. After watching her rival enter and leave a house on Federal street with his wife, Mrs. Mary Scott, 33, of 39 W. 31st street, lured the woman Mrs. Susie Jones, of 3027 Dearborn street, into a taxicab at 31st and State streets. After ordering the chauffeur $t$ drive south, Mrs. Scott placed a pistol against her rival's breast with one hand and beat her with a brick held in the other. Confirms Suspicions For several months Mrs. Scott had suspected an intimacy between Mrs. Jones and her husband, Isaac Scott. Sunday afternoon, she followed him and watched the two enter a house on Federal street. She waited nearby until they left the house, following which the two lovers went for an outing at Riverview Park. Mrs. Scott waited until they returned from the amusement park and invited her rival, with whom she was on friendly terms, to take a taxicab ride with her. The two women hailed a taxicab at 31st and State streets, ordering the chauffeur to drive south. After they had ridden several blocks, Mrs. Scott calmly took a pistol from her bosom and told Mrs. Jones that she had invited her for a ride or the purge her intimacy with her husband with her. As she drew the pistol from her bosom, she also unwrapped a brick she had concealed in the bottom of the car. She pointed the pistol at the woman's heart and threatened to crush her skull with the brick if she did not confess to her the true nature of her love. Scott, Susie Jones firmly denied any affair with Scott, and began screaming for help. Turns Gun On Chauffeur The commotion in the car had by this time attracted the attention of the chauffeur, who began to slacken the speed of the taxicab. Mrs. Scott then turned the gun on him, telling him "to look ahead and drive." The angry wife then attacked her rival with the brick and beat her over the head with it. After beating Susie Jones into submission, the two women alighted from the cab and discharged the chauffeur, who sped away and notified the police of the affair. Both women were arrested and placed in the Stock Yards station, pending trial before Judge Samuel Trude. At the hearing Monday Mrs. Scott was represented by Attorney Alva Bates, who argued the extinguating circumstances under which his client had made the attack. Isaac Jones uttered his affair with Mrs. Jones, when questioned. Mrs. Scott was discharged of the assault charge and placed on probation for six months when she pleaded guilty to the charge of carrying a concealed weapon.

(Whip Courier Service) RICHMOND, Va., Aug. 28. Through intermarriage and miscegenation the white and black races are becoming so mixed here, the question is being asked, "Is white America to become a Negroid nation?" Dr. W. A. Plecker, white, head of the State Bureau of Vital Statistics, admits that the races are becoming rapidly mixed here and issued the following statement: "There are several communities in Virginia which have perplexed us greatly. One of these is in the southern end of Halifax county, extending over into North Carolina. Around Virginia is a tribe of people of mixed descent which gave us trouble at first to classify. They are swarthy in appearance, resembling closely neither the white nor the colored race. "We were compelled to settle the question as to whether these people were white or black. They would not associate with Negroes and were not accepted by the whites. They were numerous enough to have a school of their.

"Now judge, don’t tell me you ain’t corresponded. You know very well what that means or else they wouldn’t have you sitting up there." The judge, think: "h. understood what she meant, raised his eyes in question and Mahalah answered. I know mean that. I use a Christian and never wold even think of such a thing as that. By corresponding I means he just comes to see me and we sit down and e-tertain each other. Now listen, here, Judge. I want you to know what he said to the man.

"On Saturday she asked me for some money you won't give it to her and her son began fight with me. She tore my shirt, broke a slate over my head and robbed me of seven dollars; two one-dollar bills and a five dollar bill. So I had her arrested. When Mahalah was asked if she beat John Henry up, she said: "Yes, I beat him up, and I meant to beat him up good, because he gave me that seven dollars of his own tree will and I never asked him when he wanted it back. I have the seven dollars here right now. so saying dive down! down! down! produced the two one-dollar bills and the five-dollar bill. "There it is, Judge," she said, handing it to him.

In spite of countless ages of experience, the doctor added, women had failed to excel even in cooking, yet they set up as competitors of men in all walks of life. "Far more homes are made miserable by envious women," he said, "than by dominant or brutal men." "Women," continued Dr. Oldfield, "have been 'tinklers' on the mandolin and piano through all the ages, but it is among men that the creative musicians are found." "Women are imitative and not creative," said the English critic, "IF search is made in Westminster Abbey for records of the great women of England, one will find a few actresses and courtesans, but none who were worthy of being commemorated as poets, painters, sculptors, inventors, world pioneers or world benefactors." motors, invent world bene- men with neg- ged duties of having select- es of politics ce of it, Dr. saying that FEMALE TROUBLE New Treatment Proves Success Having charged women with neglecting the most sacred duties of motherhood and with having selected the doubtful pleasures of politics and public life in place of it, Dr. Oldfield concluded by saying that mea were superior and should be reverenced, and until women were taught to become affectionate junior comrades in the copartnership of the sexes, there would be no peace in life.

ATHLETICS THE WORLD OVER Grays And I LOCAL CLUBS TO PLAY OFF TIE AT FORBES FIELD Both Clubs Have Won One Game — Contest Saturday to Decide Winner of Series. Once more, local funds will be given a chance to see two of the leading clubs in this district battle out a deadlock, when the Homestead Grays, who are recovering from the most disastrous week of the year, back horns with Jimmy Beeson and his semi-pro Champion Beaver Falls Elks club. The series at present stands at one-all, with the Saturday contest at Forbes Field looming as the deciding contest. In erase over this series is at fever's end, when an even larger team, which turned out to witness the first game between these two clubs, is expected to wend its way through the turnstiles are the game begins. Beaver Falls in Stride Beaver Falls, with Jimmie Beeson at the helm, and with such stars as Pearson, Kelly, Woish and others of big-league calibre, are decidedly dangerous, the more so by reason of the fact that a victory for the Grays at this time, might hurt their claims to another independent championship. Beaver Falls is recognized throughout the entire district as one of the most dangerous clubs in their circle, and as the Grays are everywhere considered as the colored semi-pro champions, the game will be a battle of champion vs. champion. And to say that both teams will enter the historic park with the determination to win is merely a repetition of a fact. Both managers and the players of both clubs fully realize that the team which wins this game, wins the series, and with it the honor that goes with the winning team. The present series of the two clubs marks the first contests engaged in since 1921, when the Elks were returned winners. On the occasion of their first game this year, Manager Posey raided some of the strongholds of the East and brought back with him "Raggs" Roberts, from Baltimore. And it was large by the playing of this lad that gave the Grays the edge in the first contest. But Alex Pearson, who was given try-out with the Pirates, proved anigma in the second game of the series at Beaver Falls, with the result that the Grays lost, 3-1. Now comes the final game, and while Manager Posey has not made it to this game, it is expected that either Cannady, Owens or Williams will take the mound for the Grays, while Pearson will in all probability again shoot them over for the Elks. Saturday's game is scheduled to start at 3:15 P. M. sharp. Grays Defeated By Beaver Falls AndWestNewton The Beaver Falls Elks defeated the Homestead Grays here Thursday evening by a 3-1 score, when Johnny Pearson held the slugging outfit to five scattered hits. In the second, Kirk singled, McCullough walked and Pearson drove in both runners after Walsh had filled the bases when he got to 5' on a fielder's choice. In the fifth of Pearson's home run, the Grays scored their only run when Pearson made a wild throw to first. Cannady starred for the Grays both at hat and in the field. He made a showstool catch, cobbling Kell of a homer and doubling Young off second. Score: R.H.E. Grays ..... 000 010 - 1 - 5 0 Elks ..... 020 100 - 3 - 7 1 Batteries-Grays, Owens and Johnson; Elks, Pearson and Walsh. In a heavy and free hitting contest the Homestead Grays went down to defeat at Forbes Field last Friday evening at the hands of the West Newton club by the score of 5 to 6. The Grays used 13 players in an effort to turn the tilt, but Manager Posey's efforts were all in vain. West Newton scored all of their tallies in the first four innings and the lead was too much for the Grays to overcome. Canada and Urtchinsko were the opposing pitchers at the start. West Newton obtained six scores off Canada before he was yanked. Clark succeeded him on the mound at the kicking of the fourth frame and the first of the fifth. To face him hit two triples and a doubled supplanted Clark with the hits loaded and retired the side without any more scores and he held the visitors in check the remainder of the game. The Grays made a valiant effort to overcome the lead, but fell two runs short of deadlocking the game. They scored three times in the sixth inning, when Roberts hit home run to the right field fence with two men on the sacks. The teams got 23 hits between them and INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Aug. 23.—C. I. Taylor's A. M. C.'s and the Detroit Stars are to play for the Masons at their annual state Grand Lodge, Thursday, Aug. 23, at Crawfordsville, Ind.

After the Detroit series, the A. B. C.'s will be on a road trip, including St. Louis and Kansas City. Grays Drop Tough Game To Bellevue Playing before a large crowd of partisan rosters, the Homestead Grays allowed the Bellevue clan to walk away with a 5-2 victory at Forbes Field Saturday afternoon and even up the series between the two clubs at 2-all. The ejection of Capt. Jap Washington from the game, after he had attempted to hit Referee Cal Bolsser following a decision at second case, a seventh-inning rally, which put the Grays momentarily ahead, and the airtight pitching of Al Schmidt, for the North Side aggregation—these were just a few of the high lights of a struggle which will go down in baseball history as a thriller from the first inning to the last. Bellevue scored in the third inning, on Schmidt's single and Mullen's triple to deep right after one man was out. No more scoring until the seventh, when the Grays finally broke through Schmidt's delivery, and gave "Leffy" Williams, who was hurling a masterly game, a short lead. After Owens had gone out, Cannady doubled to left field. The stand went wild a moment later when Jap Washington connected squarely with a fast one, and it sailed into right field, sending Cannady across with the tying run, and putting Washington on second. Then Manager Posey substituted Lewis for Young, but to no avail, as the pinch hitter tucked out. Brown applauded a ticker out. Miller, who fumbled the hull and then threw it away. Washington scored from second. Young's silence was keenly felt behind the plate in the eighth inning, by a double by Rheams and singles by Miller and Lauer sent over the winning run. Mullen's three hits and Miller's two safe blows figured largely in Bellevue's victory. The score: HULLEVUE R. R. P. A. E. Mullan, If 8200 A.

SPORTING NEWS SPORTING NEWS FATE, with her capricious whims, played a mean prank on Peter Jackson, when she victimized that veteran of the ring, dangling the heavyweight crown before his eyes and then snatched it away. Many an oldtime ring expert will tell you that this skilled colored man was the greatest heavyweight that ever curled a boxing glove. Jackson begged John L. Sullivan, at that time the heavyweight champion, for a chance to prove himself. But Sullivan dodged Peter to his last day in the ring. When he was old and feeble, and in the throes of consumption; Jeffries, the embryo champion, wound up Jackson's career of disappointment—a knockout in three rounds. "Our Boys" on the Track The fact that Earl Johnson is preparing to go to Chicago to defend his title as National A. A. U. 10-mile champion, the recent feats of DeHart Hubbard, the 20-year-old athletic marvel of the University of Michigan, and the first step in the selection of a team to represent this country in the 1904 Olympics, to the helm in Paris brings to mind the wonderful achievements of OUR LADS in the track firmament. In former days, Howard Drew, Binga Dismond and others upheld the honor of the race in the sporting world, but no greater galaxy of race stars has ever been assembled than the small, but distinctive group, who are now representing the race. Let's take a peep into the future and see what it holds for us. Here's what we have at present: Ned Gourdin, the world's champion broad jumper. Charles West, of Washington and Jefferson college, collegiate penance school, and Spencer speed quarter-miller and one of the greatest finishers on any relay team. Sol Butler, of Dubuque, Ia., who has leaped 24 ft. 9 inches and has already been a member of the U. S. Olympic club. DeHart Hubbard, who has come within 12 inch of equalling Gourdin's famous leap; western collegiate and national broad jump champion, winner of the hop, step and jump, and holder of practically every record at the university he now attends. Earl Johnson, national A. A. U. 10-mile champion and a candidate for the 1924 Olympics. He may have all-round talent! And when Pittsburghers consider the fact that practically all of these men, with the exception of Gourdin, at one time ran under the colors of the Morgan Community House, during the 1919 season, and were coached by Hunter Johnson, one can begin to realize the vast debt which the race owes this silent man, who always put the interest of others before himself. This column predicts that DeHart Hubbard will be the first Negro lad to ever win the decathlon championship at an Olympic meet. Here's what he can do: He can broad jump; hop, step and jump; run the 100-yard dash in close to 10 seconds; compete in the hurdles; throw the javelin and hurl the discus. And he can do any and all of these things far better than the ordinary college star. And this lad, with Sol Butler, Charley West and Ned Gourdin, are liable to form the nucleus for the greatest jumping team in the history of the Gourdin's record 25 ft. 3 inches. DeHart Hubbard's record is 25 ft. 2 inches. Butler, with Earl Johnson, Willie Rita, the lad who defeated Johnson last year, will not be entered as an American in the 1924 Olympics. He is a Fin and will be running under the colors of his native country. This makes Johnson the "cook of the walk" among American runners, for since he defeated Fred Fuller in California, July 4, 1921, and repeated his performance in Yonkers, October 30 of the same year, no American has come to the fore to contest his claims. DAYTON. O. Aug. 23.—A tenth-inning rally, which broke a 2-2 deadlock here Sunday, gave the C. M. I.

Hilldale Wins Four In Row From Bacharachs Henderson Finally Falls Before Darby Onslaught, Losing Three Games in Four Days—Doc Sykes Borrowed From Black Sox to Bolster Staff—"Red" Ryan Back. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 23. — "Rats" Henderson used to be the boogey man that Darby matrons frightened their naughty children with. "Rats" used to throw his glove out into the diamond and Hilldale would curl up and play dead. But, alas for "Rats," that was "use to be." Bobby, the Boy Scout, Manager Lloyd's demon mascot, stole the Henderson man's rabbit foot on a Camdon ferry be Wednesday. Y. he can beat Hilldale no more. On Wednesday with three on, two out and Bacharachs leading 63, Henderson was sent in to save the day. Little Judy Julius Johnson, pride of Wilmington, lifted the ball out of the lot. On Thursday "Rats" went the route and lost 65. ity of that out. I suppose the less said, the better. The high lights of the game were the routing of "Rats," Hilldale's five errors, the savage batting Mason, Lundy and Reed and the misumpiring. Cockrell pitched his usual steady game. To praise him would be but to paint the lily. Red Ryan, injured several weeks ago, is once more in uniform. Ross, knocked out by a batted ball last Saturday, is out of the hospital. "Doc" Sykes has been loaned to manager Lloyd by the Baltimore Black Sox for ten days. John Henry has high hopes that his pitching worries will soon be over. The score: On Saturday our ex-hero begged Manager Lundy for the pitching assignment and a fair-sized crowd settled down for a hectic struggle. In the last of the first Otto Bismark Briggs greeted "Rats" with a lusty single and when York threw wild when Waifield attempted to lay down his life both were safe. After "Biz" Mackey had fouled out Thomas' doubled to center and two runs were in. Three more were added to the string in the fourth, a fluke home run by Judy following singles by George Johnson and Thomas. Warfield's walk, Cummings' error and Mackey's single brought another in the fifth. Corporal Mason hit to the fence in the fourth but a three-throw relay-Thomas to Stevens to Cockrell to Mackey—cut him down at the plate. In the fifth Reeds single, an infield out and two errors, gave the Shore boys two runs. In the sixth Mason's double counted when followed by singles from the bats of Lundy and Reed. Jones, batting for York, opened the seventh with a hit, when Phil's effort to catch him off first eluded the talented club of T. L. Allen he scampered to third and tallied on Lockhart's infield out.

A disastrous $300,000 fire, which completely destroyed Harrison Field, the home of the Newark Bears of the International League, broke up plans of Fred Clark and Manager George M. Victory, of the Pennsylvania Giants, to have the latter place his team in the park, to play under the name of the Newark Black Sox. The Pennsylvania Giants, who have used the park since May, 1920, have revived baseball in Newark. The brand of baseball and the number of attractions presented, had built up a large following, and had created a demand for a major league team in that city. The Seattle Stars were to have been met Aug. 26 in a doubleheader and the Harrison Giants the next evening. Bowman A. C. Wants Game for Labor Day The Bowman A. C. are playing a satisfactory brand of ball these days, having lost but two games out of their last six. Included in this number, however, are two tie games.

A pair of phenoms whose work in the East bus aroused much interest Miss Crawford recently defeated Mrs. Lottie Wade, while Jones won out over John Wilkinson of Washington, D. C., runner-up in mixed doubles. Having been in active baseball at the time of its infancy I am desirous of writing a short article on the game and its wonderful growth which I hope will enlighten not only the public at large, but also stimulate interest and encourage the younger ball players to join in a profession which is destined to reach a pinnacle even higher than our greatest dreams would allow us to imagine—say 10 years ago. Before going any further let me ask a fair question. "Who alone is responsible for this achievement?" No other than Andrew "Hube" Foster, in my opinion the race's greatest leader, for he has not only worked day and night; best served from it money to charge; from it infaction to the gutter to such infaction of cleanliness and respect that even our most modest college graduates can point with pride to the fact that he is a ball player instead of as conditions were 10 years ago, when ball players were looked upon as uncoath and ungentlemanly persons. There is no denying the fact that Mr. Foster's ambition has at last commenced to be realized and through his earnest, comedious work we have uncovered the murids of our race's young talent; has tripled salaries from the time I started and has created places of amusement for not only thousands of the race, but numerous fans of the white race who desire to see a real hard fought diamond battle. Granting these prizes to be true, may I ask the gentle Davidites Swamped By Hoosier Sluggers INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Aug. 23—The House of David baseball club proved no match for the local Negro National Leaguers and went down to defeat by the overwhelming score of 14 to 0. Indianapolis makes their last home stand when they meet the Detroit Stars in a series of five games beginning with a double header next Sunday. HSE OF DAVIDH ABR. H. O. A.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER --- reader and fan: "Why do a great number of our race fans all over the country use their hammers so dextrously instead of idolizing and praising the one man who is the 'father' of a movement which is destined to be the race's greatest achievement of all time." Umpires When the question of colored umpires was put to Mr. Foster he at no time refused to give it consideration, as has been stated; but being a sighing man often remarked that it could only be done by taking advantage of the psychological moment with the public, a great majority of our fans, and to relate, did not believe it possible for colored umpires to allow themselves to allow himself to the discouraged by the many protests that came from the so-called wise one, who only believe in white supremacy and domination Mr. Foster, with a determination which is so noticeably lacking in some of our so-called leaders, started to put into effect the said "Umpire System." His first move was to secure the services of two of our greatest umpires—Cesar Jamison, of New York, who has had many years of experience all over the world, and with such men as Bill Klim Riley Byron, and working behind Scott and Ryan, New York Giants; Carl May and John Hoyt, New York Americans, and Eddie Rommel, of Philadelphia Athletics, in exhibition games. He then secured Billy Donaldson, famous as an umpire on the court, umpiring during the win- for league games in which numerous big league stars took part. With these two experienced umpires as a nucleus he signed such men as Gholson, of California; Augustine and Singer, of New Orleans; Boone, of Kansas City, at one time one of the game's star slabmen; Holland, of St. Louis, ex-baseball star, and St. Louis, Tom Johnson, a good slab artist in his day. Needles to say these men are making good. (To be continued) Royals and Lincolnss Divide Double Bill CATHOLIC PROTECTORY, New York, Aug. 23.—The Royal Giants and the Lincoln Giants split even here Sunday in a double bill, the Royals winning the first game, 6-1, while Lincoln won the twilight encounter, 5-0. Holland was on the mound for the Lincoln in the first game and was opposed by Hubbard. For five innings, a pitcher's battle was in progress, but home bats got busy in the sixth, seventh and eighth, driving Holland from the mound and scoring six runs. Streeter worked the second game for the Lincoln and allowed his opponents but three scattered hits over the route, blanking them in fine style. Flourney and "Cannonball" Dick Reading twirled for the Royals. First Game— R.H.E.

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Tex Rickard, the Texas Negro later and the man who is really at the helm of the team, said he was the only who is successfully keeping, Harry Wills out of a fight for the championship, would have felt very had last Tuesday evening at the Queensboro athletic Club had he been present to witness the demonstration staged for a colored boy even though that colored boy was the loser in a fight which had drawn almost eight thousand fans to the Long Island Palace of Fistiana. And let me say, right here that the vast majority of those cheering were white people, the handful of colored present not being large enough to make up the proverbial baker's dozen or a corporal's guard. When Danny Edwards crawled through the ropes to face Ace Goldstein, a hoarse shout went up which attested the popularity of the little colored bantamweight of white folks and many figured that again they would be given an opportunity to see the dancing little colored boy winning a fight, but against whom the usual decision would be chalked up. But they saw an entirely different Danny Edwards. In fine mettle up to twenty-four hours before the fight, the colored boy for the first time in many a day crawled through the ropes sick, but with the bull-rog tenacity of putting in an appearance and keeping faith with the thousands who have applauded him duri- the time he has been showing around here. Although he appeared to be sitting, his stride up to the tilt on earth round, it was s. in seen that something was wrong with Danny and the white newspapermen who were out in full force started to comment among themselves and shake their heads. Getting into the tench round they say that Goldstein was enjoying an opportunity and an advantage which few white fighters have had the chance to enjoy since Danny came here from the West, and that is that he really appeared to show that he was not his best in Greater New York and New Jersey the morning after the fight came out with a statement to that effect. But when the fourteenth came we saw why Edwards has enjoyed the popularity which has been his, and that was his exhibition of gameness which brought the throng to its feet despite the fact that Goblstein had been with him. With a body tired from exhaustion brought about by his indisposition which those of us on the inside knew before he entered the ring, Edwards was staggered with clean shots to the jaw, which would have taken the heart of many another bantam, but tenaciously, he clung to that something he thought thin on to be a time after time he was the recipient of these blows. But he was human and when he went down it flashed into the mind of his handlers that Danny could not keep up the fight as he arose at one time without taking a count. The second time he again attempted to rise after the time keeper had to toll off five and not willing to see their boy take a chance while unable to guard himself, those in his corner sent the towel flying into the ring. The crowd must have sensed that Edwards was about to rise after taking a count of nine and when he left the ring he was given an ovation the way he was given of defeat from the heart of little Dan. "Gee whiz" he said to the writer, "if that's the way they feel about it I am really proud to know that I am pleasing so many people even when losing." There's gameness for you. No alibi, no complaint. ASHLAND, Wis., Aug. 23.—Gilkerson's Union Giants added eight more games to their long list of games won, having only lost two games out of the last 45 played.

C. Elk band for another series with the American Giants, which will start Saturday afternoon, continuing Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. The American Giants are still smarting from the sting of their defeats at the hands of Kansas City and are out to redeem themselves and point to the fact that Kansas City has been struck out in the short most of their games with the Giants in this city. The local clubs also point out the fact that Kansas City is a fintx town. Mendez, who has been managing the Kansas City club since Crawford gave up the reins, has his team going at tip top speed. He will in all probability send Currie against the Ginn on Saturday, saving Bullett the chance to win the fantasy, for Sunday's fray. He will then have besides himself, Drake and Bell. There is no need of questioning the ability of any of the visiting pitchers. Drake is a top-notch, Rogan went eight innings against Foster's clan on July 5th, holding them without a hit, only to two hits in the ninth, when Mendez, Curry, and Bobby first water men. Mendez recently seven innings against Milwaukee, leaving Rogan pitch the last two. The Milwaukee club got neither a run nor a *hit* and the only man that saw first base was in the thirt SICIE Men!

Sportamen are urged to obtain their licenses at an early date to avoid the rush that is sure to follow later.

Dog Training season: The training for training dogs opens August 20th instead of September 1st as heretofore. Training is permitted from one hour before sunrise until 10 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, on all game, except elk, deer and wild turkeys. Dogs may be trained on race or any hour of the night. No training is allowed on deer and no firearms usually raised at a length and fired from the shoulder may be carried. Training at any time during the training season is permissible only so long as dogs are accompanied by their owner or handler and are under control at all times. Persons who take out dogs training purposes that cannot be controlled and limit permits to injure game pursued assume the responsibility and are liable to fines. Where training is contemplated on privately-owned land, it is recommended that the permission of the owner to train be obtained in all instances before so doing. While not connelled by law to do so, it is recommended that persons training dogs carry their licenses and display their tag as a means of identification. SETH E. GORDON Executive Secretary.

Staff Correspondence (By the Associated Negro Press) - WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 23. President Coolidge has appointed Busem Slemp, of Virginia, as his secretary." That's a flash that has turned the world upside down," so far as Colored America is concerned. Colored America from one end of the country to the other, the newspapers, public speakers and political hopefuls, had all joined the grand chorus of "He's a jolly good fellow," when -Splashl -just like that, came the announcement from the White House; "What's it all about?" If the new President had taken a bucket of cold ice water and dumped it all on the populace, individually, the shock would not have been more terrific—"terrific" is good word. Bascom Slemp, of Virginia, secretary to the President. There could not be more consternation had the announcement been made that Vardaman of Mississippi, Heinis of Alabama, or even Ben Tillman, were he alive, had been appointed Secretary. That's how Colored America feels about Bascom Slemp—the man "next to the throne," as it were. Bascom Slemp of Virginia, secretary to the President. Everybody who first heard it yelled with dismay; they thought it was a mistake. A joke. Their minds could not grate into the psychology of imagining a staid, conservative, New England president, from Vermont and Massachusetts, picking out a southern demagog like Slemp for his Secretary, according to practically unanimous opinion. Slemp, Father of Lily Whites Bascom Slemp, of Virginia, Secretary to the President. Slemp, according to the best informed people in Virginia, is a Daddy of the Lily White system in the Republican party. Slemp denied this accusation in a personal interview with a representative of the Associated Negro Press. He claimed to be a friend of "Culud folks," and charged that he was being "mis-represented." But the accusation continued; and the Associated Negro Press representative observed that he was one of the most active participants at the meeting of the Republican National Committee at the Willard Institute in Wash CHILD PADS OF WATER, DROWNS GREENE, Iowa, Aug. 23—Kathryne, 12 months old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H.

Condemn Tuskegee Raid at Big Meeting ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 23. (Special) — Condemnation of recent threats against Tuskegee Institute and the appointment of a committee to look further into that situation, reports of a wide range of activities in the interest of better conditions and better race relations, the adoption of vigorous resolutions against lynching and a pledge to keep up the fight till this great evil is eradicated, and the addition of a number of leading colored men and women to its membership were among the most important features of the annual meeting of the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation, which was held in Asheville, N. C., July 31-Aug. 2. Shoes That's What Y SHOE. Every ington, which cut down southern representation. Bascom Slemp of Virginia, Secretary to the President. The Associated Negro Press has been informed from a number of sources that Slemp is a member of the Ku Klux Klan and a strong sympathizer with that nefarious organization. During the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill by the House of Representatives, Bascom Slemp voted continuously with the Democrats in opposition to the bill and in the final vote, cast his against it. The A. N. P. representative in the gallery of the house, observed the agility of Slemp in opposition to the anti-lynching measure. Slemp Feared Last Election So universal was the opposition to Basecom Slemp in the last election that he sensed the trouble, and declined to be a candidate from his Virginia district for re-election. A Democrat was elected; but that was a foregone conclusion, as the Colored people of the district had determined to knife Slemp. Basecom Slemp was a close and cordial personal friend of the late President Harding. This is another fact that always set very heavily on the hearts of Colored America. Weekly, and sometimes daily, in the announcement of visitors to the President, appeared, the name of Basecom Slemp. President Coolidge has either been sally mislead by his close political advisers, or else he had appointed Slemp with cool and calculating indifference as to the effect such an appointment will have upon the mind of colored voters. George B. Chistian, Jr., retiring secretary of the late President Harding, although known as a Democrat in politics, gained very generous and general approbation of colored citizens who had business at the White House. Secretary Christian was always courteous and respectful; he was always solicitous in arranging appointments, and in handling the affairs of the Chief Executive, so as to be of real service to all the people. One may only imagine what Slemp as secretary may now mean at the White House. "Great Caesar's Ghost!" Bascom Slemp was made a national issue with Colored America. He was one congressman that people everywhere prayed might be defeated, and newspapers throughout the country condemned Slemp unmercifully. "It looks like we are really not wanted in the Republican party," said one leader to the A. N. P. representative. Investigate Exclusion Of Colored Americans (Lincoln News Service) WASHINGTON, Aug. 23. — The State Department has ordered an immediate investigation of the refusal of the authorities at Piedras Negras, Mexico, to admit colored American citizens.

Nathaniel Wright, an admirer of the Brunez girl, arrested for the shooting, told police that he fired the shots which caused her death, after she had refused to meet him.

SPRING WATER (An Irish Fairy Tale) Long ago, in Ireland, live great King Core, in whose palace was a wonderful spring of fresh, pure water. This spring was a wonder and a blessing to all the people, who came from miles around to draw the water. The king became afraid that the spring would be drawn dry, so he had a high wall built around it and permitted only Fior Usga, his daughter, to enter and draw water. This was a great loss to all the poor people of the country side. One night the king gave a great entertainment and one of the guests was a handsome prince, who danced with the princess and sat beside her at dinner. Presently one of the guests asked for a drink of water. The king was pleased at this request and turning to his daughter, bade her take a golden vessel and fill it with water from the wonderful spring. The princess, Flor Usga, was not very well pleased at having to perform this service before the handsome prince and she hesitated to obey, but the king, to excuse her confusion, requested the young prince to go wit his daughter, saying she was fearful of going to the spring alone at night. The prince was delighted to serve the princess, so carrying the golden vessel, the two entered the walled enclosure and the princess stooped over to lower the vessel into the well. The golden vessel was very heavy and suddenly the princess lost her balance and fell into the well. The prince tried his best to save her, but could not, for all at once the fairies of the water, tired of being walled in for so long, made the water rise and overflow the court yard and cover the palace. The water rose to such a height that it filled the whole valley. But the king and his court were not drowned. Fior Usga, his fair daughter, returned to the banquet hall that very night and the dancing and revelry goes on in the palace to this day under the water, and will go on until someone has the luck to bring up the golden vessel out of the bottom of the spring. Nobody can doubt that it was a judgment upon the king for shutting up his well in the court yard away from the poor people. The lake is there today, and if you have good eye-sight, you can see the towers of the palace far below the surface of the water. P I think I'll try and vamp that boy: Of pennies he has quite a lot.

In the heart of Africa, explorers may yet unearth marks of some extinct Negro civilization in a manner similar to the case of Assyria forgotten for 2,000 years, and finally discovered by acclimatized upper 40 feet of earth. For instance, Chicago Evening Post of October 11, 2009, speaking editorially of the recent disasters made at Nepata by Dr. Reismanvard, says, 'To his amazement he found even greater treasures of the Ethiopian past. Fragment after fragment was unearthed, until at last he had reconstructed effigies of no less than 11 monarchs of the forgotten Negro empire.' Since then fragment was unearthed, until at last he had reconstructed effigies of no less than 14 other king's and 57 queens have been unearthed by the Reisner expedition. Among them is that of King Tirkeon, in the book of Isaiah. An account in this appeared in the New York Times November 27, 1921. Again great Negro civilizations like that of Timbutcoo flourished even in the Middle Ages. Then there have been such purely Negro civilizations as that of Uganda and Songhai, which had high rank. Boas says in his 'Mind of high rank. Boas took in his Dixon took out his notebook.' A curve of African tribes exhibits to no mean cultural achievements of no mean order. All the different kinds of activities that we consider desirable in the citizens of our country may be found in aboriginal Africa." The passenger did no treply. He had narrowed his eyes, which like two slits, were peering at Dixon fiercely. The latter, after a brief pause, returning his gaze, continued to spill pepper also says: The status of time in any particular moment of time often is its inherent capacities. How true has this been of Britons, Picts and Scots and Huns. Nineteen hundred and seventy-one years ago England was inhabited by savages, who stained themselves with woad, offered human sacrifices, and even practiced cannibalism. Nor is, culture a guardian of Greece would not have decayed. Yet the Roman had the same contempt for the savages of the North who finally conquered him and almost obliterated his civilization, as have the self-styled superior peoples of today for the less developed ones. But these undeveloped peoples should not be designed. Nature, it most certainly appears, does not intrigue a whole world civilized at the same time as a trifurcity housewife retains a balance in the bank to meet emergencies, so Nature retains these undeveloped varieties as a reserve fund to pay the toll which civilization always exerts. Finot says that many biologists regard the Caucasian has arrived at the limit of his evolution, and that he can go no higher than danger over developed brains. Under developed brains developed resources, sir, are simply Nature's bank account. The Senator readjusted his slippers and went over to the water cooler for a drink. He did not like to argue in this vein. Dixon's quiet assurance and well-bred air, too, surprised him, and made him unconsciously admit to himself that here was a Negro different from his concept of that race, and not much different from himself after all. Yet he was not surprised to be outwitted by one he regarded as in inferior in spite of that "inferior" apparent intelligence. He would try the tactics best known to him—the same that he had more than once used successfully with Negroes. He would outface his opponent, awe him, as it were, by his racial prestige. With this determination he returned to his seat and calmly seated himself. He was equally puffs of a freely-lighted cigarette he turned to Dixon, who had not moved, and in pretty much the same tone that a bullying lawyer would use to a timid witness, shaking an extended forefinger and glaring from under knitted eyebrows, he demanded: "Do you mean to tell me that you really believe the Negro is the equal of the white man?" That you think you are as good as a white man, on now, none of your theories. (To be Continued Next Week.) JANE AND MARY Miss Edyth Ryan Mrs. Sydney Williston KLAN RAIDS CABARET | BIRTH CONTROL NO.

This is the overshadowing news of the world of medicine. What this means to the ten-billion-year crime problem is beyond immediate grasp. Its importance to all mankind is incalculable. It is almost childish now to repeat that something is wrong with the mind of every criminal. Men do not break laws made for the protection of men, and in the face of almost certain detection and fearful punishment unless they are abnormal in some respect. But if normalities amounting to some forms of actual insanity can now be definitely cured, and if the next ten years are likely to bring forth advances undrammed of today, it begins to look as if the criminal problem might be to be taken out of the hands of the people and put into the hands of the doctors. And the medical men will do a much better job. The small beginnings of this change are already to be seen in the treatment of emotionally instable types by Dr. Schlapp and other endocrinologists. Dr. Schlapp's clinical practice includes Medical School and Hospital, New York, is already taking care of a number of these unfortunate, sent from the courts for treatment. The treatment of emotional instability through the medication of the glands is further advanced and better understood to be the most important surgical treatment for criminals and abnormal. The first attack on the old system will come from this quarter. The Root of Evil Emotional instability based on gland derangements afflicts some of the finest and rarest minds among men. The most sensitive and delicately tamed natures, the men and women who should do the world's exceptional work, are often its victims. Some of them wind up their days in prison, while men say: "He is a brilliant man; a genius. What a pity he isn't straight!"

"We know now that many men commit crimes because their thyroid glands or other glands are out of order. It is now certain that these glands control the activities of our nerves altogether, including the workings of our brains. "This means that science has brought the matter of human conduct or misconduct down to a physiological and evenjo a chemical basis. Men do not err because they are evil, but because of chemical disturbances in that marvelously intricate machine, the human body. It would be going too far to say that we understand the treatment of all criminals today, but we do know how to restore some to normal and useful life. "For the present we must not fail to recognize that there are many dangerous and rapacious criminals who must be locked up for the safety of society, even though we know that they are the victims of diseases are of great importance to criminal stands. But there are many others who can be cured and ought to be treated. Prison only makes them worse and makes them a burden to the State, whereas they can be transformed into productive units, into assets. And there will come a day when medicine will no doubt relieve the dangerous man whom we must nage in our own defense." "The man in the street naturally wants to know whether this is all promise or whether, in his terminology, something is not tested and approved? It has, and the stories of some of these cases are genuine romances. The great truth seems to be that there are countless human beings who are ill adapted to their environment and the stresses and struggles of life. They need both medication of the glands and some sort of social care and guidance. Nothing of the sort is provided for them now, and they become criminals. These people form the one-third of our great crime-committing class which can be cured with such medical weapons as are already known and tested. Dr. Schlapp alone has made fifteen thousand experiments with such types, and other specialists have been making many thousands more.

Announcement was made today by Postmaster General New, following a conference with President Coolidge. The stamps will be similar in size to those in use, but will bear a likeness of the late President. The stamps will not be ready for several weeks and the issue will continue for an indefinite period. They will not in any way affect existing 2-cent stamps, which will be continued. Although there is no precedent for such action the postmaster general said his authority is undoubted. President Coolidge gave whole-hearted approval and picked out two designs as his among several submitted by the postmaster general. Do You Think Your Is The Most Do You Think Your Work Is The Most Important pandering to popular taste — and the popular writer in turn looks on the professor—or is apt to—as something of an old fogye, lacking in knowledge of the world. The man in Wall street, no matter what his position, regaris'himself as a budding financier—a possible money king, and to be a money king, thinks he, is to hold the ropes that pull the world. This, at least, is the attitude of many persons in many professions. Isn't it true of yourself to a certain extent? Don't you look at the other man's kind of work as inferior to your own? Perhaps you do this only occasionally and probably you do not let this attitude interfere with your social conduct toward other people. But beware of letting this attitude dominate you. And remember that the men at the top of any profession or calling are usually the ones who best realize the limitations of that calling or profession. --- All Mingled Under Same Roof on Saturday Nights PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Aug. 23.—Prayers, dancing and boxing follow in quick succession in St. Agnes' Catholic Church at Blackwood, N. J., a new but fast growing house of worship. When prayers are concluded a partition is dropped, shutting off the altar and leaving only a huge hall. Every Saturday night dancing continues, and the crafters then turn a hand to preparing the church for early mass. Frequently a ring is erected and boxers pound each other for a few rounds. "I am a lover of clean sport," declared the Rev. Father J. Vincent O'Brien, "and I have brought it into the church to encourage it in the hope it will be appreciated and not frowned on." "As for dancing, we hope to have every young-person attend." Father O'Brien said. "Then we can keep an eye on him and at the same time see that he has a good time." "Pugilists from afar - offer their services and the boxing program at the church is always well attended." It is a natural failing for a man, or a woman, either, to look at the whole world through the eyes of his profession. But this leads to narrow-mindedness, for even the best of professions only, encompass a narrow sector of the world's interests. If you were always to associate with persons of your own profession or members of their families this might be all right. But since you must meet and talk with others of often callings it is wise to stretch your outlook a little or you will make yourself unpopular. College professors and their families are apt to regard themselves as more intellectual than other people. They look at the man in business as possessing inferior brains because he has devoted them to building up a paying business rather than to scholastic study and research. He looks upon magazine and newspaper writers as shallow, NINE Mrs. Sarah Bohlsen was hostess to the Eminent Culture Club at the Miltones of Mrs. Carley. The memorial present were Mrs. A.

IN MEMORIAM In memorial of George Birtfette, Turner, who departed this life one year ago, Aug. 14, 1922. You live within a bright sphere, And walk the golden streets above, Your happy spirit with the bleat, Beaks in the sunshine of God's love. Then sleep, dear Birtfette, calmly From all earth's cantering sorems, Free, we would not wish to break The spell that binds these to eternity. Yes, sleep, where violets smile and sleep. And at night each pearly tour Where blushing roses softly bloom Their faded leaves over their bles. And at thy grave by early morning, Where nature bids each flower Well we'll wonder in some quiet hour. And drop a tour upon thy hands. Purewell, dear Birtfette, we have resigned! The mortal form to earth's cold Until the archway closed this rise From this tide peaceful clambering rest. (Signed) Miss Caroline Bruce. FAIRMONT, W. V.A.

HERE AND THERE Harrison Hall, who became scared of the "Wildcat" and settled down to teaching music in Cleveland, is being considered as a prospective theater manager for a house in that city. Trust Hall to get on the top row, wherever he is. Francis Wilson, the N. Y. playwright, advises that he has expanded his "Pa Williams' Gal" into a three-act play for Richard B. Harrison. It was originally written for this star as a tabloid drama. The new version requires eight principals and will have a jubilee singing group of eight more people. Marion Jones has been engaged for the leads. J. Larkins Pregman and Viola Haskins will be in the cast when the show opens on September 10 at the Lafayette theater. --- Harry Hardaway, basso, is doing the part of "King Tut" in the new Cullen minstrel afterpiece called, "Looking for King Tut." His hat has been especially commended for its comedy characteristics. Esther Webster has joined the Campbell New Orleans Minstrels. William West and his syncopators have been playing for the past several weeks at Haines Falls, New York. Comment from there is very favorable to this young group of artists. "Little Jack," the famous trick drummer, is at the Three Tune Inn, Abler, Pa., for the summer, according to a recent communication from the little Dacon. The Bulls' Aid and Pleasure Club, one of the leading colored organizations of the city of New Orleans, sponsored the first carnival ever presented by Negroes in that city during the week of Aug. 11. Albert Simpson, Jerome Young, Thomas Henry, Jr., Warren Barlow, Henry Smith, C. J. Fisher, Charles Wyatt and Alex Wilson were the men who made up the committee in charge of the affair. E. Alfred Drew, erstwhile performer, now the editor and publisher of the "Colored Barber and Hairdressers' Monthly," was a visitor at the Shriners' convention at Indianapolis. He says the parade was the greatest thing he ever saw, and that it made him homesick for the old minstrels. Just how he homesick to spend a week in Indianapolis capitol at that time and failed to meet the People is beyond my understanding. For the newspaper men, the showmen and other trouppers, had a straight line on one another and hobnobbed all over the town with Coy Herndon as chief guide and mentor. Then Drew must have failed to look into the second official auto in that parade: Just after leaving Indianapolis, the Page received letter from Rasus Airship. I reply may we say that he pretty nearly visited the site at Anderson, India, but the auto engaged disappointed the party, otherwise the Sparks circums would have been bothered for one afternoon with a gang of Deacons. A. M. Ervin, former theater manager in Cleveland, Ohio, is in Lawrence, Mich., for the summer. Jimmie Dick and his wife are on the Sun time and after the Elk's convention in Chicago will begin a tour to the coast.

J. Rosamond Johnson, “Peggy” Holland, Edward H. Hanson, Lee Langinger—our own composer. Miss E. Bennet, was a decided hit at the Henneman Orchard last week. Mr. Elliott W. Hough, dramatic gritic of the Minnesota Daily Star, commented on the act as follows: "We have often wondered, why black face entertainers?" After watching J. Rossonond Johnson and his Negro company, we wonder again why theater managers and brokers who ignore the race itself have the very best entertaining ability. "Johnson and his 'immutable Five' are the most versatile troupe we have seen this summer in Minneapolis. Members sing, dance, play the banjo and the violin in an excellent manner. They have a jazz orchestra that shows how pleasing syncapotion can be when played by a race who have syncapotion in blood. He and his company of his dancer is a little 'high yellow' dancer. The adjective 'charming' only begins to express her style and beauty. "Espe and Dutton sing and carry on a humorous conversation, which is followed by clever weight throwing and balancing. Gillette and Rita dine and sing. On the whole, the Orpheum bill is good this week, with parts of it, the Johnson troupe for example, exertionally good." I GUAR BEAUTY IN A FEW MINUTES!

"Kinkout" is one of the ZURA Moorish Beauty Preparations that I have seen thousands of women woven almost overnight. NO NEED FOR HOT IRONS "Kinkout" does what no other preparation has ever been known to do before. "Kinkout" has been applied as it is applied. No thresome or moss treatment. Simply rub a little in the hair, comb and mousse it. The hair will stay in place without any trouble. "Kinkout" softens the hair and makes it more wavy. The longer it remains on the hair the better. No danger of burning the scalp or causing the hair to turn black. It does not thicken the hair and the soothing oils that it contains cause the hair to become softer and straighter with each delightful application.

ELEVEN Broadway, which comes to the Pitt With Sparks Circus Prince O.Kagamaan, "the one-man circus," has joined the Sparks circus, according to a letter from him. He adds his testimony to that of many others who declare the organization to be a great one. He says, "There are no agitators or knockers here; it's like a big family, and Mr. Sparks is a real governor. He treats everyone alike and has no special favorites. If he was just, President of these United States the country would really be safe for democracy. No wonder the performers who are here don't want to be the "climbing of ones' good food good service prevails. I want to say, however, that no lazy man need come here. Mr. Sparks is a just man, but he works and expects others to do just that and George Conners carries out those ideas on the side show."

They loath to manifest as temples of the living God. The veil has not been rent, that they can fully demonstrate their greatness. "Man is a living soul," "Thales, of Miletus," was asked, "What is the most difficult thing in the world?" Miletus, in reply, answered, "To know one's self." The same obtains to many souls this day. Well spoken is this expression by Jesus: "Ye judge the heart of the Lord, of mindless Scribes and Pharisees of this fault, written in their law, towit, "That the testimony of two men is true." John, 8th Chapter, 15th to 17th Verses. Modern Spiritualism, in the science, philosophy and phenomena presents testimony in these stellar stars. Sir William Crookes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, M. D., LL. D.; Camille Flammarion, Sir Oliver Lodge, F. R. S.; Sir Alfred Russell Lomface, D. C. L., F. R.; Cesar Lombroso, Andrew J. Cook, M. D.; Prof. Jas, H. Hyslop, Moses Hull, Ephesus Sargent, W. T. Stead, Dr. Stainton Moses, Lord Leighford, Victor Hugo, Prof. De Morgan, Dr. Miguel Sans Benito, and hundreds for the asking. Some of these noble characters have passed to spirit, while many are this day manifesting in the flesh, and all of record. Modern Spiritualism is awakening the consciousness of countless people. As from the acorn comes the mighty oak, so is Spir in the forest. We forget, Gallio, Copernicus, Columbus, Magellan, Benjamin Franklin, Geo. Westhoseman, S. F. B. Morse, Alex. Graham Bell, Robert Fulton, Wright Brothers and a host of other pioneers. To and in their respective callings, read of these men. They were called crazy, laughed to scorn, jeered by undeveloped minds. But thanks be to the Eternal Presence, this day their efforts are living monuments for the service of humanity themselves."

His Efficiency Won Honors From American, French and Italian Governments During the World War. J. H. JOHN B. HARRIS TURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1923. You are aware, no doubt, that the commission paid the agents by the insurance companies, is worth considering. We mentioned that to say that when the club places the insurance for one of the members, the club gives the member the commission, thus providing a cheaper insurance and thereby saving the member money along these lines. Perhaps there has come a time when you were forced to be towed in or had to phone for a service man to come—you will remember that this class of service comes high—but it is furnished our members free, which enables them to add another saving. None of us are able to say what the future holds in store for us and few of us pay cash for the machines we buy. Suppose misfortune came to you and rendered you unable to finance your payments on the machine, or paid bargained on buy; you would have little to worry over this condition if you were a member of our club, for we would come to your rescue. This feature alone is worth the price of one year's membership fee. And while you may not attach very much importance to the road maps and touring information or identification card, yet it is this feature that makes we incorporated to make our publishing a real pleasure. When out seeing the country by auto, this service will prove almost invaluable. Thus you see, dear reader, that it means quite a deal to you to be a member of our club. We want you and you need us. So while the thought is fresh in your memory, it would be one of the best things you could do to join in with us. Now don't put it off; attend to it this very day. If you haven't the fifteen dollars, you have five and can make a start. So let nothing deter you from becoming associated with us Right Now. We wish you would run in on us at our office and talk the matter over. We would be jolly glad to have you come in. We know nothing that you need us, use our picture. You see a hearty hardshake, a heart-to-heart talk and a get-acquainted meeting would go a long way towards making a Mutual Service a Better Service. We are deadly in earnest in our effort to serve you and we know that service of the kind we hope to render will not only meet your approval, but that of God and Angels also. We wish to say again that we would like to meet you in our own little office. Have you to enjoy the air of good fellowship that permeates the little workshop where service and better service is being ground out; but if you find it will work a hardship if you do not be only glad to have you tear off one tide of the folder which we enclose, fill it in carefully, place a one-cent stamp on it and give it to the postman. We will send you the nicest representative you can imagine to discuss our plans further to you and to secure your membership. Don't put this off, either, because you know, we need you and you need us, and as we both need each other, let us get together as soon as possible. We have kept you at this longer period than to do, but we hope that we have awakened your interest to the extent that you will at least let us hear from you. And now we want you to please accept our thanks graciously extended for the courtesy you have shown in reading this communication. Do not forget that it is our sincerest wish to render you an honest, efficient and pleasing service. May this pleasure be ours. Our very best wishes for a super abundance of the best things in life to always attend you, is the spirit of Your servant, The Mutual Service Auto Club, NCE:MVB N. C. Everett P. S.

Convenient Credit Terms Easily Arranged PICKERING'S, Tenth and Penn By Henry Jones and Charles Horgan LOS ANGELES, Cal.,—With our exaggeration, the famous Blank and Tan Orchestra is the true owner of its slogan "Best in The West." This orchestra has pleased Los Angeles for seven years and is as well known the East as the West due to the ability to use boys to compete with the white hair well as hold the lead among their own race. The Black and Tan is really a collection of versatile musicians and composers and has been hailed as having the best saxophone 'team among our boys in the U. S.

Ziff Company, 603 South Dearborn Street, Chicago, 321 Victoria Building, St Louis, Mo.; 420 Long acre Building, New York One White Church WE NOTE with some amusement that there is to be ONE WHITE church, and no more church North and Church South among the Methodists. The old cause of separation has disappeared, say those responsible for the re-union. Be it known that the Negro was the cause of the division back in the sixties. Slavery is the term used, but the Negro was the cause of the division. In coming back together, it is interesting to note how little is said about the justification for the split. Indeed, a great many more words are spent explaining the differences in the modes of worship, discipline, and polity that are spent on the cause that split the churches in twain. But it is given out that the cause has disappeared, and the re-union followed. The re-union speaks only one thing for the denomination: It has decided that the Negro need not divide a church organization. The question of soul-saving is not discussed at any length, nor is anything said about the disposition to be made of the black man's soul. It is taken for granted that the black man is now capable of saving his own soul. If this admission has been made, it amounts to a congratulation for the black church organization which was held not eligible to the higher ranking Christian bodies worshiping under the Methodist banner. The re-union may result into one white church, but God wants more than one white church. He wants ONE church, and the adjective need not be used. When there is a re-union of the churches—all the churches, regardless of section, of color, of mode of worship—then will it be of interest to mankind and of value in heaven to speak of ONE church. Another Problem AS LONG as Negroes are few in number, and influence in any community, there is little discussion as to their presence and there is seldom, if ever, any problem teaching their life and activity. But as soon as they exhibit numbers and activity, there arises that ever-prevent problem Lowns as the race question. We suppose we shall have the race problem until there is but one race on all the earth. We are receiving reports that the great exodus from the South has brought to rural sections of the North a labor problem not hitherto encountered. The average migrant who leaves the South goes direct to some industrial community, and there he or she finds employment. But during the late months several have gone to farming and rural districts for employment and homes. There has arisen the problem of race difference and race selfishness. It is reported that some Negroes in northern sections refuse to work with the new brother who has just arrived. The chief reason is because the new arrival is new at the work, inexperienced, crude and awkward. Few southern people know how differently farming is done in the North from the customs and modes of farming in the South. The difference in mode, in crop, and in the implements used make an awkward situation for the farmer who does not know how to teach a green hand northern methods. And the green hand does not learn any too readily. The situation presents a problem, but one which can not endure longer than one or two seasons. With all the new customs, the new modes and methods, the new tools and the new people which the migrant must meet and learn to know, it must be admitted that the migrants from the South are becoming adapted as rapidly and readily as could be expected. In a few years we shall know nothing of migration and the migrant. American customs everywhere will have been absorbed and reduced to daily routine, and the laborer will be heard singing at his task. It takes just a little time, and just as much patience. We shall succeed, if we faint not. Gentlemen, the Ladies! (From the Boston Chronicle) In some portions of the North, particularly in Massachusetts, the black man who says he has no reason to be kind or polite to a woman merely because she may chance to be white doesn't know what he is talking about, and he ought to be taught a lesson. Even in the South, where white men declare as a matter of course that black men have no rights that whites are bound to respect, the black man, although he may salve his rebellious soul, gains nothing of lasting spiritual good by being insolent, impolite and boorish in public places towards the women whom, instinctively, he has learned to hate and fear. The woman in any civilization is the product of her masculine environment. The thoughts she thinks and utteries are invariably the thoughts of her men; the attitude she assumes towards the community, and greater, problems, she adopted from male relatives and friends. She is an artificial plant fed by artificial means, the means in these cases being the men who, directly or indirectly, influence her thoughts, speech and actions. This is so in the South. If toleration for colored people may be found in greater abundance in the North among white women, it is because their men are less intolerant. All of the foregoing has been said as a prelude to this: Black men who occupy seats in street cars and subway trains, pretending to be buried in the pages of their newspapers, while women stand in their presence, are unworthy of being Hutchinson FRANCE YOU ARE WELCOME, BUT YOU WILL HAVE TO LEAVE THOSE PETS SOME PLACE ELSE AMERICAN TOURISTS JIM CROWISM COLOR PREJUDICE The long arm of American prejudice has invaded France, but not with storming success. The American tourists have tried to show France that it is very bad taste for France to allow colored persons to eat and sleep as do other human beings. Quite howl has gone up from Americans who think their presence in France is the signal for a general exodus of all darker peoples, whether they be subjects of France or tourists from Georgia, U.S.A. Like the France she is, she tells the American tourist that he is welcome, and his patronage is solicited, but as for his "pets," they will have to be left on the out side. The much heralded world peace, and world harmony, and world union against war in the future, sounds like so much brass when we hear of Americans, the people who ventured to flee across 3,000 miles of ocean for freedom, telling a country like France that she must separate people because of the color of their skin. the most separating point from this earth as a common family. The limitations of the globe are already apparent and war has been declared senseless and too expensive. If we decide to stop war, nothing can prevent a complete occupation of the earth by the human family. When we explore the last unknown region and reduce it to our daily use, we will learn that the highest economy is an equal division of supplies. This rather Utopian view may take many of us beyond our allotted years, but the thought affords some relief, to say the least. Leave 'Em Outside France is many hundred years ahead. called men. It matters not whether the women be black or white, Americans or foreigners. The rule has early been established in this country that chivalry shall govern the conduct of gentlemen in the presence of ladies; and all men are gentlemen until their behavior stamps them as less, just as all women are ladies as a matter of course. No one can with logic deny that this early-established rule is an excellent one. The black man who fails to rise and proffer his place to a woman because she is white may think himself fully and honorably justified. We know that the trend, of his reasoning is thus: White men don't give up their seats in the cars to my women; white women don't thank colored men for offering them seats; in the South I should probably be murdered for my courtesy. That is the trend of his reasoning, but is a trend in the wrong direction. It is likely to create in the mind grotesque and unfortunate reasons for certain actions—actions which neither logic nor justice could reconcile. A black man who has been treated as less than a man by white persons all his life, should welcome the opportunity to prove that he is, in spite of the treatment he has received, possessor of those noble qualities which makes some races superior to others. A black man's passive insult to a white woman does not palliate a white man's insult to a black woman. A black man has an opportunity in his dealings with women, regardless of race or color, to show his superiority over those who prate superiority constantly, yet who fail, when opportunity comes, to present their proofs. A white man who will sit in a train or car while a woman of his own kind swings to a strap above him will certainly do this before a black woman; a white man who is chivalrous and a gentleman to the most lowly black char woman can be nothing less than a gentleman wherever he may go. A black man who ignores the amenities of our social order because of a desire to "get even" with white men who may do so is short-sighted, thoughtless, a poor diplomat and a boor.

CAIN-CHAMPIONS CAUSE OF WORKING BEN AND WOBIEN (Continued From Page One) which the commissioners have supervision." Not only did Capt. Cain bring about a readjustment of the pay of employees to the living wage basis, but he helped to bring about the equalization of the pay of women with that of men, where they work the same hour, and perform the same tasks. Of these tasks, "The day when women were regarded as men's inferiores, a cheaper sort of servant all along the line, has rightfully gone forever. As a tradition it still lingered in public offices, and many injustices existed against men and women. It was one of the things I never could understand and never could endure. When I found myself in position where I could correct this injustice, it was one of the first times I took up, and I glad to say that today the women employees of the county are on this pay, and that I could reach. I firmly believe in the living wage, and I believe in it for women as well as for men." To The Editor The Pittsburgh Courier Pittsburgh, Penna. Dear Sir: I noticed on the front page of your paper (of the August 11 issue, that the Pittsburgh Courier has but one policy with respect to news; namely that all information worth reading is given to its readers on all subjects, all sides are given a hearing during questioning. If this policy is true, I am asking that you publish this letter in your paper at its next issue: I have just finished your editorial in the paper concerning the article published, in the Morning Star of Wilmington, N. C., and supposed to have been, written by Dr. Foster Burnett a promising young surgeon c. this city. Please let me state here that Dr. Burnett did not make those drastic statements as they appeared in the Editor of the Morning Star. The doctor is innocent yet he is held victim of circumstances. I talked with Dr. Burnett (as did many others including the editor of the Star), on his arrival concerning conditions as he saw them in places visited by him; and in reference to the employment of common labor; housing conditions; etc. The doctor stated frankly before those present, that colored labor was in demand, that the wage scale in Washington was $1.25 per hour to $5.00 per day, that the only objection he saw was the acute shortage of houses in Washington for colored people, and that he understood that the same thing existed in Philadelphia. That he thought unless the housing situation was relieved, which he understood was due to the rapid inflow of Negroes from the South, the congestion resulting would be predisposing factor to his disease, and especially the crosis. He further stated that skilled labor was also in demand and cited instances in Washington where Brick Layers received from $75. to $6 per week. Dr. Burnett in his statements did not once urge the Negroes in Sections of the South where they were oppressed not to ketter their conditions by moving north. The article it is appeased in the Star was an inagreement on the part of the Editor to allow the Negroes to doctor in reference to the housing situation which we all know is a fact. The editor arranged the words to suit the theme; in other words he painted a picture of horror and disease, together with persuasion, out of nothing. Dr. Burnett is far from the Uncle Tom Type of nagrus as pictured by you in your paper. He Negroes out of their intentions to move north. He is frank in speech and for his frankness is respected by both white and colored citizens. Dr. Burnett has done a great good in the Community where he lives for the betterment of his people. It was through his efforts that the community Hospital, a negro Institution, which has reflected great credit upon citizens of City City was organized and established of $00,000. It was through him that the last state legislature bodies passed a bill authorizing the City of Wilmington and the County of New Hanover to appropriate $15,000 to the hospital each year. The money has been paid and the hospital is moving forward. He has played an important part in the increasing of cities in city and bettering the life of the poor every respect. The various articles that you see published in southern papers concerning the sayings of Negroes are not always true. I recall for instance, a publication not long ago concerning Dr. John W. Kay, a popular young physician of this city. The papers published a report stating that the doctor had been guilty of improper conduct at the Community Hospital was untrue, yet the doctor was made to suffer and the papers never published his innocence. I want to state again that Dr Burnett is innocent, and like many others of us here in this southland is afraid to, speak less we be dealt with accordingly. For the protection of my family and myself, I must withhold my name at present, but the time will come when we can speak out like men and not be afraid to say in conclusion. However I want to say in conclusion that I am a christian and through prayer I am expecting a better day. Yours A servant for my people. site selected, according to Col. A. B. Rice, special representative of The Pittsburgh Courier, was condemned by the health officers of the city on some technical grounds. In many instances, this action was taken only after several tents had been erected. Not until last Friday, after more than a week's effort, was the present camp site finally O. K'd. MAN SHOOTS WIFE AS SHE WALKS IN SLEEP ATLANTA-Ga. Aug. 23 — Lives Elle Reid is in the Grady hospital in an obvious condition as the result of her recent surgery. The night of her birth was her last Coolidge and Slemp THE very first net of the now President will doubt cause greater dissatisfaction among colored within Republican ranks than now exists. In Mr. G. Danaus Slopp, of Virginia, to be his secretary, dont Colldidge has postage decidedly defeated the presidency for 1924, where it seems clear he amends to make his hobbies for return to the White more secure. We admit that in this surprising Slopp he may succeed in carrying out his plans to free the Negro in the South, yet we believe that if he succeed in doing this he will lose more in the end of early juggling will ever balance. Mr. Slopp may make the Republican Party South White" and win the nomination for his chief at that convention next year with "Lily White" delegating sure as this occurs the Northern doubtful states where Negro vote can turn the tide may be expected to candidates not bearing the G. O. P. label. In the Colldidge will lose in the long run what he sought to short cut and gain. ```markdown ``` President Harding advised colored Republicans famous Birmingham speech to divide their vote. With the late President's reason for this was that he was in the South, to Southerners, where the race most acute and where the Negro has less political because of his blindly following one party. The P. would certainly, not have delivered the speech any except in the South. And he could afford to speak because the colored Southern voters were not dependent to decisively contribute to a Republican victory. In that where the G. O. P.'s strength lay in the South delegates at national conventions and that this goes no further than in naming party standard-bearers. Harding also knew that a few Federal jobs would keep these delegates in line no matter what were the utterances. Take Walter L. Cohen, of Louisiana, stance. So knowing these things, the late President is possible, to disarm the white South of any fears that if they wished to come into the G. O. P. for a reasons they need have no fear that they would be inated" by Negroes. He showed them plainly that inviting the Negroes out. His whole attitude in that he would completely ignore the Negroes if he gain "Lily White" support by so doing. And C. I. Slemp was his chief agent and advisor in this direction. In order to clinch things—"carry out the D politician"—President Coalsdale has placed Mr. Slemp position of equal power. Colored men from the South hardly expect any consideration whatsoever, for Slemp pass on everyone whom the President will see, as advise him on practically every political move by Slemp was against the Dyer bill; he opposed giving any colored man because he wanted them for white White) men; and we strongly suspect he had ground hand in the undoing of John Mitchell, Jr. home state because of Mr. Mitchell's political agen Colored men from the North can hardly explain consideration because their "demands" are likely to be construed in terms of "social equality" by this old Southerner before they reach the President's desk. In words, the South is in control again despite the fact "red headed Yankee" who was once governor of Chusotts is boss at the White House. We do not believe that Mr. Coolidge deliberately tended to insult colored voters by naming Mr. Sleep, rather believe that he was first anxious about his next year, then about the fate of his party. It is a fact that the G. O. P. is having a hard life. States that have for years been counted in publican columns as a matter of course are beginning almost directly the other way; and if something fails to either mend this rent or bring in new material the G. will pass out. Economic conditions are mainly the cause of this disruption. The West has practically repudiated their administration. The Republican tariff has worked but the wheat-growing farmers and they are clamoring change. If the G. O. P. can gain in the South what in the West it is still safe. Southern manufactureral community of interest with Northern and Eastern facturers, whereas wheat-growers and industrialists so closely related. The basic industrial South is rapidly. The G. O. P. is traditionally a party of "business," hence it will be pleased to trade farmers for extensive "interests." ```markdown ``` The Negro is left out of this deal. In the South it doesn't count. He has no economic interests to help a political party. His cry has over been and still is and a party doesn't exist on "frights." But hard Negro is so situated in the North that he can resent it and bring pressure to bear on those who presume to guard him. In the Middle West and parts of the East Republicans and Democrats are so nearly divided whichover vay the Negro swings, his vote will deal will come into power. If Coolidge starts any "Lily" business or congregation policies it is doubtful which can carry enough states in the South to offset that Negro will cause him to lose in the North. investigate alleged theft of violence made against Carrenshaw, of the city who have been unjustly accused attempted murder in Carrenshaw who was a police officer in the "Southland" a struggle in the Big Four Railroad, after a fight with a wifish the wash room of a kid near Griffin, Ga. according to ments filed within the government.
