Campaign Is Launched To Aid Soldiers
President Coolidge to Be Petitioned to Release Imprisoned Members of 24th Now at Leavenworth.
NEW YORK, CITY, Oct. 4. — A nationwide campaign is being launched by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, looking towards the liberation of the imprisoned men of his 94th Infantry, now incarcerated in the United States. Pentitentiary at Leavenworth, Kansas.
Appearing elsewhere in this issue is a blank Petition Form, to be used by the race loving men and women of the country, to join the pressing pressure to bear upon the President in behalf of these unfortunate men, who are justly styled: "The victims of a color prejudice."
The history of the case is well known to all reading men and women in other countries.
It is recalled that the 24th Infantry, a regiment whose record for valorous service for the United States compares favorably with that of any regiment in the United States Army, was sent to Fort Sill in the midst of the war of 1917, and stationed at Fort Sam Houston. The men were subjected to all manner of insults by police and civilians of the cracker city. After standing all that it was humanely possible to bear, and after one of their numbers Sargent Baltimore, a captain of the Houston Po- (Continued on Page 15, Col 3)
not look more than 70, produced papers, including a record page from a family Bible, showing that he was born on May 10, 1830.
He says that he served as a slave in North. Carolina, coming to St. Louis shortly after the civil war. He was married once before and had four children, all of whom his oldest son, John, Memphis, is 71 years old, according to Mason, and not know how many grand and great-grandchildren he has. He says he works every day on the river book, Canoe, Giradane.
Unknown Porter Smashes Way Out of Coach; Strings Rope Across Swollen Creek
Four Passengers, Sealed in Death Trap, Saved From Watery Grave—Rescuer's Name Unknown.
CASPER, Wyo.; Oct. 4—Heroism of a Pullman porter, name unknown, stood out in bold relief here in the disastrous train wreck, when Burlington Passenger train No. 30, bound for Denver, plunged off a bridge into the creek. Grettatt, fifteen miles Thursday night, ensuing a loss of life; an estimated from fifteen to 100. One of the Pullman cars went into the creek and four traveling men in the smoking compartment along with the porter, are reported to have been sealed in a death trap of the coach came to rest on the bank of the creek with one end in the water.
Pullman Porter Hero'
With the agonized screams of men, women and children breaking the stillness of the night, and with the swirling death current reaching forth its watery tongue to tuko in the hopeless victims, the blood proved that the dark veins flowed the stuff of which heroes are made.
He smashed his way to freedom through a window, taking a rope with him. Partly swimming and partly wading his way through the creek which had by this time become a roaring torrent, carrying death in its wake. The rope was made fast inside the bank. He used their escape by pulling themselves hand over hand to the bank.
'Bob' Russell Dies In Mercy Hospital
Robert "Bob" Russell, popular club and fraternal man, died in the Mercy hospital at 3:45 Wednesday morning from intestinal disorders. Mr. Russell was aged 42 years and came to Pittsburgh 19 years ago, and built a large circle of friends through his easy-to-meet, jovial personality. He was a member of the North Side Lodge of Elks, Royal Grand Lodge No. 31, K. of P., and the Mass Chapel. Joseph wife, three sisters, Josephine Russell, of Pittsburgh; Mrs. Carrie Watkins, of Richmond, Va.; Mrs. Lucy Boyce, of Philadelphia; Mrs. William F.

"Reprimanded" by White
Lado, Man Kills One
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Oct. 4. Race prejudice resulted in a death here last week, when an unknown man killed one of a number of white youths who objected to his drinking from a public fountain.
The dead youth is said to have "reprimanded" the man, stating that the fountain was for white alone. Angered at the insults and abusive remarks, the man pulled a knife when the youngsters attempted to attack him, and cut one youth fatally.

The resignations were not due to a political crisis nor to a common
cause, it is understood, but arose
largely from personal reasons.
Charges Of
Greed Stirs
Article Flaying Methods of Local Women's Political Organization Causes "Hot" Session.
The Negro Women's Republican
Bureau of the Treasury County is in
troubled waters.
Following the publication of an editorial by Mrs. Ferol Reeves, identified with a local weekly and corresponding secretary of the body, waves of gossip have dashed the league ship to and on the turbular bridge. Mrs. Ferol Reeves declared that the league was making a "pathetic effort" to function, and veiled charges of greed, meeting behind closed doors with hand-picked committees and lack of political vision, punctuated the editorial at issue, to which the league responded. At a call meeting in the Livingstone Memorial Hospital Building at Fullerton street and Bedford avenue, Mrs. Daisy Lampkin, president of the organization, brought the matter to the attention of the members. When the article was written, Mrs. Lampkin invited Mrs. Reeves to make a "defense" if she chose.
Mrs. Reeves' Reply
"I cannot, under any circumstances," said Mrs. Reeves, "discuss the editorial policy of questioning the editorialism to discuss the editorial policy of my paper publicly. If you want to discuss the matter with me, you may ask me to take the matter up. Any action you take will be acceptable to me."
And Mrs. Reeves sat. All the criticism hurled against her, however, did not shake her decision. She rejoiced with the success, with the possible exception of one instance, in answer to the question as to whether Mrs. Reeves referred to the County League when she spoke of the organization of "mushroom" variety, coming into activity with the County League, another. Mrs. Reeves said she did not mean the County League. As to the other charges of greed, etc., she said nothing. The editorial was not directly accusing the County League,

The rich, full voice of Dr. J. E. Moreland, of New York City, revered the foundation of the new $250,000 building of the Young Men's Christian Association in Center Avenue Sunday afternoon, and the fullness of the message re-echoed in the eager response of the community. It was a memorable occasion; and Pittsburgh was proud!
Dr. Moreland's Lost Act?
A storm of applause greeted the announcement by executive secretary Samuel R. Morsell, that the dedicatory address would be delivered by the president of the senior secretary of the Colored Men's Department of the International Committee of the Young Men's League, a nificant about the instance was the fact that Monday marked the last day of Mr. Moreland's active service in the capacity of senior secretary, he continued on Page 24, 1).

He succeeds Dr. Jesse E. Mooreland, the retiring senior secretary, who has served on the committee for thirty-five years.
The appointment was not a surprise as Dr. Tobias was the next in line in point of years, and also service rendered.

PRETTY GIRL
HELD SLAVE
BY 'MASTER'
Forced to Act in Role of
Mistress for Wealthy
White Man, Girl Tells
Court, Freed by Court
Order.
CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 4. A story of slavery and slavery by her white "master" which stands as one of the most shameful conspiracies in the history of this country was unfolded here last week, when Marie Armand from Hammond, La. led a story court which involved one of the wealthiest men in the south and disclosed a "slave-system" almost unbelievable. Joe Graziano, said to be one of the wealthiest white-men in Hammond, president of the Farm Association of Louisiana, is being capped and came to Chicago, where Hammond had her arrested on a charge of theft.
Tuesday Judge Joseph B. David granted a writ of habeas corpus in her behalf and ordered her freed.
At the same time the court directed that, her three pursuers from Hammond, Joe Graziano, Attorney General, gave a deputy order—be escorted to a train by two sheerif's deputies and be made to return to Louisiana.
"The charge brought against this girl by this man is groundless," said the court. "I see a sinister purpose to take this girl back to Louisiana." Judge David then ordered assistant state's attorney present to inform Governor John M. Parker, of Louisann, of the way he had been deceived by certified citizens of Hammond City. Gov. Mike Illinois be informed of the facts to block any further attempts to extradite the girl.
Girl Sues for $30,000
As Graziano was leaving the court room, he was served with a writ apprizing him of a civil suit for $30,000 damages filed in Circuit Court by Graziano, who charged him with seduction, false arrest and inflicting personal injuries.
Marie Armstead faced her white "master," Joe Graziano, in Judge Joseph B. David's court different times and there became "her friend," she said.
Later she was taken to a cabin near the home of Graziano in Hammond. When Mrs. Graziano went to Hot Springs for her health, Marie said, Graziano moved her into the house.
The ring, which Graziano declares she stole was produced, Engraved inside were the initials, "M. A. G." "What do those butts stand for?" was asked.
"My name," said the matritto girl court, "Marie Armstead Graziano."

Dr. U. Conrad Vincent Ordered Arrested by Supreme Court Following Charges of Mrs. Sadie Dorsette-Tandy, Wife of Wealhy Architect, That He Defamed and Besmirched Her Character.
NEW YORK, CITY, Oct. 4—Mystorious New York, "this home of life, love and tragedy," has unearthed another story of scandal, piquant with romance and highly flavored with the time-worn tale of forbidden love, poisonous jealousy and wicked rumors of evil gossip.
The busy Metropolis hesitated in its mad rush of business and pleasure to grasp with wonderment and surprise the news of one of the largest damage suits of its kind of court record, involving a dashing society matron and a prominent physician. The news was confirmed when Mrs. Sacie Dorsette-

Andy, through Adrian Aebermann, Hunley and Rucken, insisted and Rucken, declared that she had brought $50,000 damage suit against Dr. U. Conrad Vincent, a physician with offices at 209 West 135th street, for alleged slanderous and "maliciously spoken defamatory remarks against her character." Dr. U. Conrad Vincent, Thursday by Deputy Sheriff Miller pursuant to an order issued by Chief Justice Whitaker of the New York Supreme Court. The arrest was based upon a complaint and sworn affidavits in which it was alleged the physician had falsely slandered the victim and required security. Dr. Vincent was granted jail liberties pending the final disposition of the case.
Principals Well Known
The principals concerned in the area are well known throughout the United States, the proceedings fairly startled social circles. The husband, the plaintiff is major Verizon Wireless one of the most architects in America. A few years ago he distinguished himself by designing the beautiful $250,000 home of the late Madam C. J. Waillet, up an available practice since his coming to New York three years ago. He was born in Raleigh, N. C., and is 32 years of age. He graduated in medicine from the Univar (Continued on Page 15, Col. 2)

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 4. — This staid city has an organization which is shortly destined to be ranked as a "national institution." We speak with some degree of authority for its financial power is being used in all areas of city life, responsible citizens who may call upon its resources. Southern farmers, notthesian; business men, realty operators, theatrical enterprises—all are clients of the banking industry. Organized in 1916, this bank has

SPRUCE PINE, N. C. Oct. 4. Martial law reigns supreme in open defence of mob law in this section of the country, following an order from Governor Morrison, which sent two companies of the North Carolina Militia speeding here to "preserve order at any cost."
The action of the Governor was direct result of the deportation of more than 200 colored laborers who were on the section at the end of two days of the excitement, the result of an alleged attack by one of the laborers upon a white woman.

had a memorial history. It's growth has been such that it has become necessary to have two branches, one in West Philadelphia, and one in North Philadelphia, to accommodate its thousands of depositors. This was the initial offer of man to found a bank in the North, and, of course, the doubters said it just could not be done. Philadelphia, lukewarm always to new things, took kindly to the venture of two men to found a bank and Stevens is now a land-mark.
The story of Edward C. Brown reads like one of Oliver Opitz's books. It is a tale which might well be told by fond mothers to the children of the impoverished. Now in this city in early life he was rendered an orphan and had to live by his own (Continued on Page 15, Col. 4).
ETHIO Abolishment Of Slavery Brings Unanimous Vote
Applause Which Greets Admission Rivals That Which Greeted Ireland: Representatives Picturesque.
GENEVA, Oct. 4.—Ethiopia Thursday was formally admitted to membership in the League of Nations, the Abyssinian empire having convinced the powers of the league that she was done with slavery forever. When the names of the Ethiopian delegates were called her representatives strete to their allotted places, picturesque clad in costumes of rich and colorful material. The applause rivaled that which greeted Ireland when the sons of Erin were received into the family of nations.
When the plaudits had subsided, Prince Dedjazmatch Nadeen, chief delegate, with finely chiseled ebony features and a black Vandyke beard, mounted the rostrom and spoke in the name of his ruler, her majesty Quizero Zeoditu. Ethiopia had had a glorious past, he said, but/being deficient in progress, he had sought admiration into the great which stood for progress in modern civilization and for help in co-operation between the peoples of the earth. The election of the motion was unanimous.

was spent in dedicating the L'L
building for which he had directed
two successful drives and stimulated
a broad, warm interest.
Chairman Hezekiah Anderson presided: Attorney Homer Brown gave an appealing address; Mrs. Mary Turner Burwell sang sweetly; Father Shelton Hale, Bishop proponed the dedicatory prayer.
Ralph W. Harbison, Charles A. Locke and Frederic B.ipp of the Board of Directors of the Pittsburgh Association; General A. J. Logan and Arch Deacon J. S. Russell were among the distinguished visitors, Mr. Harbison, who is president of the Association Board of Directors of the several local branches, presented the keys to the building, and T. M. Tate, one of the ablest supporters of the Center Avenue Branch presented the flag. S. R. Morsell, the splendid secretary in charge of the branch, and its very first and only secretary, was the center of admiration, although he took no particular part in the ceremonies, which his uniriting efforts helped make possible.
Modern in Every Detail
The crowd was enormous! A steady stream of eager humanity inspected the building from "cellar to garret," as it were. The comment on all sides was praiseworthy. The spacious lobby with its comfortable chairs, soft-shaded lights and cream and gray walls greeted one upon entering. On the left are the windows to the right the reading room. The "gym" and auditorium combined has a seating capacity of 500 or more and there is modern, ventilating and heating devices to insure the proper healthful atmosphere. The "imming pool," the 82 net rooms, the baths, etc., complete this beautiful building, which is as one speaker expressed it "a fitting solution to many local problems."

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 4—Jas.
Frasier, well known in the head of
the Gun, and of Order of Good
Semperflam, and an active leader in
local politics, was arrested early
last Sunday morning by Police
Captain Bruce B. Chosny, on a warrant
charging criminal assaults on
Lela Villins, a young girl of this
city.
When the case was called for trial, Frazier, through his attorney, George W. Heppa, Jr., valved the preliminary hearing, and the case was set for a jury trial. Frazier was released under a bond of $41,000. Held at Flatbush Point.
The Williams girl, who resides with a family at 2418 Eglant Nelson street, Park City, appeared at her home about 8 o'clock Sunday morning in tears, and her clothing almost torn to shreds. The family with whom she stopped had become alarmed at her failure to appear earlier Saturday night, and had communicated with the police and asked that a search be made for her.
Upon reaching home she told a story of having been held captive in Fraser's room at the point of a pistol. When she resisted his attention, he attacked and brutally beat her, harring her clothing from her body, the declared.
Notorious Building
Fraser lives alone in a front room on the second floor of the so-called Famous Building at Vine and Central streets. How the building acquired the name Famous, is not known, but it is nilogne. It is waarde in the city, for the names of de bachuurhaven that have been witnessed there. The third floor is used as a dance hall, and is usually crowded two or three nights each week. A number of killings are said to have occurred in and about the building, and several slashing parties have been staged.
The Wilkins girl is said to have an excellent reputation here, and the city is aroused over the alleged attack upon her.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER
Defense in Famous Memphis: Case Springs Surprise—Says Race Man's Company Was Solicited by White Woman.
NASHVILLE, Tenn., Oct. A.-A. a case which upon request accepted a deal of excitement in Memphis' again in the courts and considerable excitement is now extant in connection therewith. The white press of the south calls the position taken by the defense of the Negro accused of attacking the white woman as a victim of the crime; hence, it is claimed that John Cook, the accused man, made a confession in which, it is shown that Cook's attentions were not forced on Mrs. T. P. Coopey, but had been solicited.
The woman, in a desperate struggle to save herself the usual humiliation of being regarded with Negro, made a desperate effort to show that Cook had forced his attentions on her. She declared that Cook had subjected her to the most cruel treatment, finally swearing to throw her into the Mississippi river over a bluff in Riverside Park.
It is said that during her testimony several discrepancies were found and the counsel for the defense shattered her story in places. How she thought that the existent prejudice involved in connection with the case Cook stands a poor chance of securing justice.
- Reading between; the lines as the case progresses indications are that this unfortunate relationship between Mrs. Cooney and Cook it was listed for Mrs. Cook it was that people suscended them of their clandestine association, Mrs. Cooney took the only course open to save herself and let Cook bear the brunt of the mutual misconduct. The case will go on until early tomorrow morning, it is thought. Cook's fate will be known later.

No Color Line In Chain-Gang, Women Weep
So Governor McLeod, of South Carolina, Says White and Colored Prisoners Will Not Be Chained Together.
COLUMBIA, S. C., Oct 4—By A.N.P.,)—If Gov. McLeod has his way, Negro and white prisoners at the State prison will not be chained together in the future. Recently there has been considerable complaint lodged with the state authorities concerning this practice. The Gov. McLeod said the practice, "it savors too much of social equality," say the Governor's friends, "and he is going to stop the perilous practice." The dreadful situation reached a climax when Jack Collins, a white war veteran, was chained to a Negro, when the two voyagers were sent to the penitentiary. Some white women are said to have wept when they witnessed the degrading spectacle. Hence, one of the reasons for the governor's determination to stop the awful spectacle.

WIFE POINTS OUT RIVAL AS 'HUBBY PIRATE'
---
Court Visitor Soundly Whipped by Irate Mate in Presence of Judge.
CHICAGO, III., Oct. 4—Two women came, to towba, Friday morning in the Englewood court room when Charles Campbell, 38, 1312 W. 10th En., appeared in court, with an automobile, which grew out of his hitting Mrs. Anna Coffee, 3882 Langley Ave, with a car which he was driving; while she was crossing the street. The woman's leg was bruised and she was taken to the hospital.
Case is Displaced.
Mrs. Cora Campbell appeared with her husband in court. In the court room also was Mrs. Ruth Robinson, 60 E. 31st St. The automobile assault charge against Campbell, the defendant, then anaphor-matter was brought to the courts' attention by Mrs. Campbell. 'She saw Miss Robinson in a corner of the room and was struck with an idea. Miss Robinson, Mrs. Campbell-said, had alienated the affections of her husband. "On account of that woman my mom moved home like used to. He spent only one night at home last week," declared Mrs. Campbell, "and I want a warrant for her: her now is a good chance to get her while she is here, for the officers would never find her because she moves constrictively." Miss Robinson was called before the bar.
"What about this? she was asked. She held up her right hand. On a finger gleamed a ring. "Look," said Miss Robinson. "I wear the Eastern Star ring. I couldn't be guilty of such a thing. Why did I come her today? I just came to see her to see how the case against my husband—her lover—was going to come out." Mrs. Campbell interrupted. "This woman is breaking up my home and—" "Rivals Clash" "You hush!" came from Miss Robinson. The next instant the sound of a slap in the face, rang out in the room. Don't you dare to tell me to hush my husband, stealer!" cried Mrs. Campbell as she struck her alleged rival. The two women were separated by court attaches after Mrs. Campbell had administered several blows upon the person of Miss Robinson.
Mrs. Campbell was advised by the court to dismiss the idea of, obtaining a warrant for, in connection with the band and Miss Robinson continued their relations. No fines were imposed on either of the trio.

PARIS, Oct. 4.—While women in Turkey, the center of the world of Islam, are just beginning to give signs of independence, striving to win a place in the social structure above that of slavery, there exists in the remote South of India a fastness of the Hoggar, a tribe in which the women have from time immemorial enjoyed privileges equal to those of their men folk.
Much fiction has been written about this tribe, called the Touaregia, ega by romancers who have invented a "matrilocalh" state, resuscitated Atlantis and told wondrous tales of the "Brown Queen," who lives forever and enslaves handsome foreign explorers, dooming them to death when their homes are destroyed.
Story of Traveler
But Prof. Olufsen, secretary of the Danish Geographic society, who has just returned to Europe after conducting an expedition across the Sahara, has a different story.
Dr. Olufsen scouted the idea of the women of the Touaregia ruling the tribe, the countryside, a kind civilization radically different from that of all other regions, where the tenets of Mahomet, with subjugation of women as a vital clause, holds sway.
In the Hoggar, the women, who are very beautiful, enjoy absolute independence.
Women of the Touaregia according to the dictates of their heart and their authority, as mistresses, of the household, in this case a tent, is uncontested.
The Tourares have never accepted the Islamic ruling on polygamy.

For $5 they, were very mute, so the woman returned and this time asked for $50 to perhaps bet her a thousand dollars an hour, when the Gipsy did not return with a message Miss Logan notified the police.

Fairmont Wedding Brilliant Affair
FAIRMONT, W. Wa, Oct. 4.—The Elks' Club on Cleveland Ave., was the scene of an elaborate marriage ceremony on Wednesday, Sept. 27th, when Miss Charley Belle West, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. C. West, of Grafton St., was united in marriage to Duval Irvine, of this city. The Rev. J. D. Browne, of Trinity M. E. Church, performed the ceremony. The bride, who was given in marriage by her brother, Jas. West, Jr., was attired in flat white crepe embroidered in seed pearls. Her tulle veil was caught with orange blossoms, and she carried a shower bouquet of bride's roses and lilies of the valley. Her sister, Miss Tommy Lee West, as maid of honor, was gowned in peach crepe and carried butterfly roses. The bride maid, Ruth Moor, was dressed in Taftea and carried Tangerine gladiolus, and Miss Hilda Rowland, gowned in Heliotrope Georgette, carried Pink gladiolus. Mrs. J. B. C. West, mother of the bride, wore a lovely gown of grey crepe with a corsage of pink roses. Mr. Wm. I. Irvine, brother of the groom, was the best man. The groom and his attendant wore the conventional
The ball room, where the ceremony was held, was beautifully decorated in ferns, palms and fall flowers.
Just before the ceremony, Miss Eula Forney, gowned in King's Blue Chiffon, sang "I Love You Truly" and as the last notes of the solo softly died away, the bridal party could be seen, slowly approaching to the strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March, played by Miss Helen Forney, who wore a gown of Flame Taffeta.
A reception followed the ceremony. Mrs. Samuel Carpenter, in a gown of Jade Green Sequins, had charge of the guest book, and Miss Norma Williams, in Orchid Georgeite, with purple trimmings, presided at the punch bowl. Skinner's Orchestra furnished music for the reception. Covers for sixteen were laid at the bride's table.

The Past-Eminent and Epiment Commanders' Council, of Pittsburgh, Fx., another branch; organized about two months ago, to assist the General Committee of Arrangements for the International' Conference of Knights Templar, Imperial Council and Appendant Orders for 1924 have organized' the Knights Templar Choir and their first rehearsal will be Sunday, October 7, at 3 o'clock P. M. at Faternal Hall, Arthur St. All Sir Knights enrolled for said date and time. The Council has also purchased a fine piano; for the service. This will also be of great assistance to the Deacons' Club, of which Sahara Temple is very proud.
Bro. Joshua Lincoln, of Golden Shield Lodge, No. 69, F. & A. M., is still confined to the St. Francis Hospital. His condition seems to be the same. Bro. John Gunn, of Jericho Lodge No. 20, F. & A. M., is now able to be out again, and hopes soon to take up his daily occupation. It may be that Nobile Rice. hesitated when purity was demanded, even wailed that I am too old for this, however. Rice is a Noble representing-Sahara Temple No. 2 on the General Committee, and when the Scribe shall gather on the Oasis, of Pittsburgh in 1924, Rice hopes to be living to serve the sour milk of the goat and light up the Nargahall pipes for not only Noble Neal White, but every Noble coming on our Oasis, especially Nobles Whitney and Jackson. The Caravan says Walker Cox, White King and Thornton, all of Pittsburg, renegades, if there were such in the craft. Again it tells you that gang buries everything, and if they talk to you five minutes you belong to them. The Caravan also tells you a hot bench to get and we, the Nobles of Sahara Temple No. 2, will tell you when the Scribes have reached our Oasis—you will find this much hotter than when you last saw them. The Caravan may rest a while here, while we look over the Desert.
Sunday, October 14th, is the regular meeting day of the General Committee at Fraternal Hall, Arthur street, and we expect all members of this committee to be present for this as there are still some sub-subcommittees to be appointed. Sir Knights and Nobles, there is work for every man on this Committee, and that means you.
What we should like to see, and I know I voice the sentiment of Grand Chancellor B. G. Collier, one of the best who heads any state, is for a unit yof forces that predominated the Uniform Rank, K. of P.'s, some years ago, when we had Majors who really, commanded their battalions, and Captains, who were an honor to their companies, as well as other line officers, and in turn respected their colonel as well as their brigade officer. What is the use of that anvil chorus of contingent knackers, self-styled leaders, as well as inexperienced Sir Knights. Why do you insist on having something that you know you are really unqualified for. You know that you have had men honored by election as Colonels, Majors, Captains, that really never bought their uniform, then there were some who did buy after they were either elected or appointed would have been better off if they had never wasted that money, for they are neither reactionaries or progressives. They have neither plan nor policy. In word—just plain knackers on some one that tries to do, yet if you ask them some idea of some constructive policy in re-

KINKY NAPPY HAIR--DON'T HAVE IT!
gards to the upbuilding of the depleted run-down Uniform Rank in this city, they are silent. They forget the lesson, that he who commands, must first learn to obey—and when there is a call, this hammer organization gets busy right away to knock any proposition that their superiors try to initiate for the welfare of the department. I don't know if it is a certain state like the western part of Pennsylvania so lax in their duties, that is; by men who were elected to their respective positions. How long can the uniform rank last under such conditions?
Under the command of Col. Allen of Philadelphia, the eastern part of the state is proparing, gaining more to the ranks every day, while here in Pittsburgh and vicinity, only two captains are concerned about their companies. In the eastern part of the state, the companies respect their superior officers, when they give, command—they all obey. The colonel is respected and every other officer down to the least. That is why they are outstapping you here. While in New York there were thousands of people visited the camp to meet some one who they knew were members of old Elite and other companies, which made such a fine showing in by-gone days. But, alas! they were doomed to a sad disappointment, for there were not many more than a corporal guard from their fertile field. While Philadelphia, who made the Grandodge in Williamsport, Pa., weeks previous, was there three to four hundred strong. When those noble women banded themselves together to help raise money for the New York and Williamsport trip, little did they think that the money, when divided, it would only go to the treasury of some of the said companies, and not one penny expended for the purposes prescribed. That is the case, as some of the company officers refused to even donate to the fund. I will say more on this subject later.
Sadie Francis Bruce, wife of Capt. Thomas Bruce, of 503 Fannell St., E. E., died at the Pittsburgh Hospital on Sunday morning, the 23rd. She was well known in church and Fraternal Circles. She was a member of Good Hope Baptist Church, Lawrenceville, Pa., and a member of Rose Sharon Court of Calanthe, also J. H. Minor Council St. Luke. She leaves to mourn her loss, a husband, two daughters, Mrs. Viola Marsh and Bessie Bruce one sister, Shaw, Wray Marsh, of Washtenaw County, and two sisters, Mrs. Mary Rineful of Youngstown, Ohio, and Mrs. Carrie Thomas, of Washington, Pa., and a host of friends and other relatives. She was born in Lynchburg, Va., May 29, 1875. Her funeral was conducted from Good Hope Baptist Church on Wednesday, September 26.
I promised to call to the attention of the Sir Knights and friends, the names of the several Pittsburghers who were honored by Major R. R. Jackson at our last supreme Encampment to head the several divisions. The Seventh division was headed by Col. A. J. Lewis, Eighth by Col. J. Howard Cook, Ninth by Col. Wm. Tibbs. This fact alone should show to the rank and file of uniformed rank men, if they merit it, they will never be overlooked by him. Also Brigade General T. D. Gunn the honor of leading the Third division, composed of Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina and District of Columbia, to Harrisonburg, Va. Col. A. J. Lewis, as well as Col. A. B. Rice, were born in that city. They are both serving or Maj. Gen. Jackson's staff.
Deputy Chas. W. Gant, of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., of Western Pennsylvania, paid a visit to Carnegie, Pa., on Sunday, September 30th. He formed a club of twenty-one young man, who will establish the first lodge of that kind among our group, in this particular order. Wm. U. C. Butler, of Carnegie, was elected president of the club. The future looks bright for this lodge of Elks in the town of Honus Wagner.

IN MEMORIAM
Good-bye proud world; I'm going home.
Thou are not my friend; I am not thirst;
Too long through weary crowds I roam
A river-ark on the ocean line;
Too long I am tossed like the driven foam.
But now, proud world, I'm going home.
In memory of Mary Jane Rutherford, who departed this life one year ago today, October 3, 1923. We loved her, but angels loved her more. They have sweetly called her to yonder blissful shore. Sadly missed by her children and grandchildren.

A LITTLE-BIT-O' EVERYTHING
Fashions!
White kid gloves with gauntlet cuffs show rows of colored stitchery going round and round—green and blue and yellow—ending in three-inch fringe hanging down at one side.
Another white kid glove is made with tiny godets of green kid inserted into the cuff, which is thus made circular and flaring. It is pinked along the edge.
Colored crepe de chine handkerchiefs are edged with two-inch point de Venise lace. Even with the wide lace edging they are diminutive.
Hats in a soft velour have painted flowers for trimming.
Flat envelope handbags of gray or tan leather are banded with black trimming bands.
Brown and tan are a smart combination.
Swearing!
Don't swear. There is no occasion for it outside of a printing office, where it is useful when the paper is behind time. It also comes in handy if proof-reading and is "indispensable" when the ink works bad and the press begins to "buck." It is sometimes brought into use when the foreman's mad; and it has been known to entirely remove the tired feeling of the editor when he looks over the paper after it has been printed. Outside the printing office it is a foolish habit.
The Feet!
That the discovery of one's "solemate" is possible through impressions of the feet, and that pitfalls of marital unhappiness can be avoided by reading the character clearly indicated by a person's sole, is the contention of Dr. F. F. Hayden, noted New York chiropodist.
"The feet are more of an index of character than most people are aware of," says Dr. Hayden. "For instance, the girl of low arches in many cases will be found to be cruel and exacting.
"Also, avoid a flat-footed girl with fallen arches, as she is usually in pain." The flat-foot, with all of the trees crowded together by high heels and pointed shoes, indicates a shallow person who prefers jazz and cafe rollies to the more substantial pleasures of life."
A trip to any of the beaches, where the fairest daughters of the country are wont to disport themselves, will convince the most skeptical that there is room for great improvement in the average foot, declares the eminent chiropodist.

Pittsburgh will be represented with one of the greatest semi-pro football teams of all times, embracing former football luminaries whose names have been placed on Camp's All-American teams and supplemented by the very cream of local talent. Arrangements have been practically completed by the management of the Homestead Grays to place an eleven on the field this fall, which will compare favorably with the best in the tristate district.
The team; it is said, will be built around men whose names have been made immortal through participation on the big

West's Brilliant Run Is Feature of W. & J. Triumph
West's Brilliant Run Is Feature of W. & J. Triumph
WASHINGTON, Pa., Oct. 4. — Coming as a spectacular climax to W. & J.'s 21-0 opening victory over the heavy Bethany team last Saturday, was a 62-yard run by West, speedy halfback and pentathlon star, whose playing throughout the game marked the really bright spot of the President's offensive.
West starred for his team throughout the game, gaining consistently in his powerful spurs around the ends and his dashes through the line.
West's Daring Sprint.
West's spectacular run came in the final quarte. Amos had just scored for the second touchdown as the third period ended. Bethany kicked off to open the final stanza, and the kick fell short, Berreshem falling on it on the Wash-Jeff 32-yard line.
Then West was given the ball. Capt. Wilderquist and Berreshem opened a hole through the Bethany line. West tore through with the speed of a reindeer and set sail on his famous run. With the whole pack at his heels, he sped over the white chalk lines. The Bethany coaches had prepared for just such a contingency and had placed their fastest men in the backfield, hoping to head off the pentathlon star. But West just tucked the oval under his right arm and ran away from the entire field.

Tuskegee 'Tiger' Unleashed Against Second Team In Practice Game; School Out
REAR ROW BOX SEATS, $1.50 EACH
Entire Squad of 47 Men, Out for Varsity Berths, Injected Into Lineup—Regulars Have Hard Time Scoring on Reserves.
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Oct. 4.—"Eat 'Em Up Tiger!" the war cry of the Tuskegee Tiger, resounded throughout the campus of the famous Alabama school Saturday afternoon, September 29, when Coach Abbott unleashed his tentative varsity for an attack on the reserve outfit for the first "full time tilt" of the season, before the entire student body. Every one of the forty-seven men contending for varsity berths got into the fray before the "time limit" as designated by "the Hoyle of football" called a halt to the hostilities of the afternoon.
When the fracas began the varsity lineup consisted of Gilbo, left end; Captain Kitchen, left tackle; Strong, left guard; Tadlock, center; Jennings, right guard; Danzby, right tackle; Hill, right end; Boss, quarter; Bailey and Wooten, halves, and Joyner, fullback.
To greet the warring Tigers was a squad composed of: Mobley, left end; Bell, left tackle; Brown, left guard; Woodward, center; Wright, right guard; Harris, right tackle; Duncan, right end; Smith, quarter; Stevenson and Stewart, halves, and Penny, fullback.
Boss, Bailey, Wooten and Joyner carried the pig skin for long gains, but to carry the ball behind the goal line for a long time seemed an impossibility. These aggregations battled fiercely for twenty minutes before the varsity backs. were able to place the oval behind the goal line for the first counter of the season.
For the second squad Stewart and Penny starred in the backfield and threatened the varsity goal line on several occasions. Stewart was a bulwark of strength on the defense and was responsible for many of the yards gained by the reserve outfit. While both lines were evenly matched as to weight, speed and experience, the work-of the varsity tackles, Captain Kitchen and Danbury, stood out and the ability of the second string line to check the onslaught of the varsity backs was one of the features of the initial griffmage.

Okrie, former Detroit Tiger hurrier, lasted only one-third of an inning, and Kudron, who followed him, was nicked for 10 safeties in four and two-thirds innings. Toney Dugray, former Hamilton Mint league pitcher, went to the mound in the fifth, and held the Stars for the remainder of the game.

Watch the "dust" as it takes a low sweeping course over the fields of battle and finally comes to rest in the Courier's columns. So long.

Atlanta university opens with an overflowing crowd of eager, earnest students. The higher classes especially are well filled with promising material. In order to secure the most careful classification of students, the university inaugurated this year the new scheme of permitting newcomers to arrive as much as 10 days before the opening so that every new student could have a fair chance to show just what he knew and so that his fate would not have to be determined by the results of a single examination. To the surprise of everyone, a considerable number of students elected to come several days in advance. There is-great enthusiasm among the athletes who hope to turn out at good team this year despite that some good may have been lost last year in war. The backfield specially has suffered from the loss of two strong men. But the spirit that seems to be in the team is the spirit of the Atlanta university motto, "T'll Find a Way or Make One."
*The main thing* that seems to bring most contentment to graduates and students alike is the choice of the new president, Dr. Myron W. Adams, who is in thorough accord with the spirit and the traditions of Atlanta university. In his 34 years of connection with the university, he has been known to many generations of students for his sympathy, his calmness and his unfailing justice. Prof. G. F. Zimmerman, of Dickinson college, who has been a teacher of finance and business administration as the head of that department. His work. His courses will be open only to the most advanced students. There is little doubt that the inspiration gathered on the opening day by the students from the address from Dr. James Dillard, of the Slater Board, will last a long

Coach Kindle, of Talladoga college, reports a most encouraging feeling after a few days workouts with his squat drill Talladoga. With a squad of 5 men who are rapidly getting into the best of physical condition coupled with a real school thing, things are taking on the glamor of football days. Capt. White and Manager Wilson are back and working hard in their respective position. "I see no reason why T.

Down in sunny Florida among the orange groves, the "Courier" found its way and fell into the hands of one of the many lovers of the grid game. This particular devotee was none other than J. C. Diggs, who officiated in a number of the big gridron struggles staged in the south last fall. Mr. Diggs writes that he is available for service again this time and perhaps, in some cases, forever. He dwelt upon the need of good education and the ability to think with discrimination so as to avoid following the vagaries that seem to take hold of such large numbers of people because of their inability to think deeply and accurately.
Atlanta Warriors Complete Second Week of Training
Three Squads Out for This Year's Team
ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 5—Coach Aiken and his assistants rapidly rounded the Crimson hurricane into condition for their first clash with Knox institute here next Saturday.
With last week's practice standing them in good physical condition, this week was ushered in with a little of the rough work, and today (Saturday) will find the teams in a real scrimmage.
Shadow of gloom was cast over the Crimson camp early Tuesday morning when it was learned that Garnell Mills, promising halfbacks had succumbed after an operation performed for appendicitis. Death came early Monday night.

Baby Welfare
Conferences
|. For Mothers
One of the things considered by
‘those who have studied the child
problem in order that America
‘might have a strong, healthy Child-
hood, Manhood. and Womanhood, is
the baby welfare conferences such
as is being conducted free of charge
by the Public Health Nursing As-
sociation, for the benefit of mothers
and babies of all nationalities.
Every baby can have his share of
health under good care. It is much
easier and cheaper to keep the baby
ell than to care for him when be
is ill, :
‘The Public Health Nursing Asso
ciation maintains Well Baby Con-
ferences in different sections of the
city to help the mothers in the care
of their babies. Every mother whose
baby is not. under the supervisior
|of a private physiciantis welcome to
bring the baby to these conferences
Phe baby is weighed and thoroughly
examined by 2 doctor and the moth
er is advised how to care for him
‘and keep him well,
|_If the doctor finds, in his examina
\tion, any ‘physical defect or diseased
Gondition, he advises the mother tc
| go td her own physician for ‘treat-
ment.'
By weekly attendance at thes
iconferences, a mother may know
i whether or ‘not her baby has a nor
{mal weight, if -he is gaining, suf.
ficiently each week, it he. is .devel
{ oping normally and low -best’ she
‘may feed him, The nurses will visi
in the homes to give any. help oF
advice which is needed. These con:
ferences are held each week, free o!

WILMINGTON, N. C.
The city schools opened here with a very large increase over that of late year, and while, several new teachers have been added, there is at great inadequacy in the seating capacity. One of the noticeable things about the children is the neatness of appearance, which is so preoccupied that it cannot help being noticed. Wilmington is the only city in the state that has a public high school for colored boys and girls, and they are not slow to show their appreciation of it. Shell Island, the less than three-month old summer school, has very few days ago, while the number of visitors for the day reached nearly three thousand, all seemingly delighted. The L. B. P. O. E. made it the occasion of its reunion, and the antlered herd was there in large numbers, while the Capital and Green's Seminational, Orchestra of the city, furnished music for the many hundreds of dancers. Shell Island is owned by the money of the better class, who put it under the management of Mr. Thos. H. Knight, a colored man, approved ably, and engaged in business, taking business in the hands of his people admirably fitted for the work. Before the World War automatically took over railroad equipment for war purposes. Mr. Knight, occupied the unique position of being the only colored man employed by a big railway system, and thus engaged in business in several states, and the experience gained in that enabled him to make Shell Island the big success that it is. His name was of strength. Those who have been to Shell Island do not wonder that from many states so far, the city has a large and successful business in the island. It attracts adjectives of delight. At night, when the board walk is illuminated by electricity, driving down the wide boardwalk is indeed a midsummer night's dream. Before long Shell Island will have more than the people of any one section swinging on its surf lines in the beach. In the meantime, the plans planned for next season is a modern $3,500 hotel, with several bath rooms. Shell Island is to be made a great convention place, and already several state grand lodges, etc., have voted to meet there next year. The one needed thing in Shell Island is to have a concession privilege, and employing of help to the manager, who could then better control in the interest of the company and bring about a better service. These things I am told, are handled by the white owners, selected by the officers of the company it would be best, to have them formally put to work by the manager. This has been the objection of some of the ministers.

Action, Art, Spice All Are Mingled In 'The Man Between'
"The Man Been Green," which is the attraction at the Elmore theater this Saturday, has within its six parts everything that one usually gets out of four or five entire productions. The picture opens in an aristocratic home where a spirited domestic scene is enacted. Then it switches to the snow-banked house of a trapper in the Northwest, where the lovers of action will relish a spectacular hand-to-hand battle. A bitter trading post fight and the location changes to a prince's residence, a prince will intrigue all powers of drama. Then comes the spice of an extravagant cafe and cabaret revelation, with a suspenseful and passionate climax before the close of the melodrama, back in the home from whence it started.
Allan Forrest is splendid in a difficult dual role and after seeing Edna Murphy we are convinced that this beautiful girl is destined to stardom ere long. Vola Vale is a vamp who understands the dramatic value of restraint in her action and for two character men we are strong for Fred Malatesta and Philo McCollough. Kittie Bradbury has a sympathetic mother role and little Doreen Turner is a winsome child of the screen.

THE
Charmion has been approached by Torrence Welch, an agent for Peyton Martin, the richest man in New York, to buy the patent, but instead of trying to do so, he decides to try and marry the patent for himself. But he is defeated when Charmion, resolved to earn money enough to have her little crippled sister, operated upon and made whole, secretly goes to New York.
There she tries to run a curio shop in Greenwich Village, but the project falls. "In her darkest hour she is approached by the Princess Titania Benkleyk, who tells her that she must have the aid of Charmion's beauty, in order to sell jewels, borrow a austere fortune, by Russian noblemen and women who have nothing else left because of the revolution. Charmion gladly accepts the strange offer for the sake of her crippled sister, and overnight she finds herself installed in luxury and posing as "The Princess, Renkleyk."
'Peyton Martin is one of the millionaires who is entranced by her beauty. But Charmion cannot forget the man who once kissed her, and when she meets him again she is dazed to find that he is affluent to the daughter of one of his business associates. He recognizes her but refuses to believe that he loves her because of his engagement.
Peyton Martin and Lawrence fight in the market for the sake of Charion. The latter is thunderstruck when she again meets Welch, the agent, and he tells her that she has been selling stolen gems. She believes that Lawrence loves her patent, and not her and, crushed by successive misfortunes, finally offers to marry the man who bids highest for her. Martin bids $5,000,000, but Charion cannot go through with the deal, although Martin threatens to send her young brother to prison on a trumpet up charge. Welch is arrested, Lawrence rescues Charion, Martin gives her brother another chance, the crippled baby is cured, and in Lawrence's arms, Charion finds that all ends happily.

As refreshing as a breeze off the ocean on a humid day is "Up in the Air About Mary," which is a comedy built along force lines, rapid-fire with its shafts of laughter and delicious with its "kidding" titles. It might almost be called a burlesque on straight society drama.

"The Man Between"
Young Jules Lamont was cursed with too much money.
Wealth made him neglect his adorable young wife.
Wealth led him to follow the dancing eyes of Rosie Beautiful of the Midnight Maids.
Wealth got him in trouble with reckless Joe Cateau, the trapper who took Rosie from the cabaret to be the wife of his lonely cabin in the woods.
Wealth finally landed him in jail, where he pleaded with another man, his double in appearance, to take his place and save his family from ruin.
And the other man—the man between—paid for his misdeeds, fought his battles, and finally came face to face with a situation which form the most amazing screen drama ever conceived.

Lonely Woman Adopts Man of 43 As Her Son
Says Her Home Was Dull After Own Children Left
DENNER, Col., Oct. 4.—If Ralph Raymond Scott had been anywhere between 1 month and 20 years when Mrs. Molly Kartak adopted him the proceeding would have been worth a news paragraph, or two at most. But when, from the record of that Mrs. Molly Kartak, learned that Mrs. Molly Kartak, mother son 35 years old, applied to Judge Morey for leave to adopt Ralph Raymond Scott, 43 years old, the preceding becomes of considerable interest.
I don't see why the fact that I have adopted a young man as a son should be of any interest to anybody," said Mrs. Kartak, when seen in her cozy home. "Is it necessary for a woman to go through her late years of being a mother her affection on some one who is beyond usual years of adoption?

"Why shouldn't Mrs. Kartak adopt me?" he asked. "We were both alone; our tastes are sympathetic to you; we want to be together. We wanted to be together in a way that was right before the world. Her family approved of the plan and my relatives were blessing, so what more matters?"

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 4. Reports from educational institutions of every character throughout the country to the U. S. Department of Education indicate that colleges and universities are opening under suspicious conditions, many of them being filled to over-flowing on the opening day. Particularly the true of colleges and universities specializing in the training of colored young men is in connection with the latter is the number of students who are choosing courses, giving preparation for careers in the field of business.
Particular significance is attached to this growing tendency, among colored students to seek careers in the business world. It denotes a more ed change in the way students are availed to encourage the more promising college men and women to enter the fields of medicine, dentistry, or pedagogy as a life work. The change, it is believed, is caused by the fact that which is colored by colored banks, insurance companies, and other colored business enterprises to colored institutions of learning to devote more attention in the future than has been true in the past to have been true in the past to have been true in the field of business.
Appeal to Institutions
As evidence of the interest being manifested in this matter, at recent meeting, the New York Association a resolution was passed authorizing the appropriation of funds to establish Chairs of Insurance at Howard University, Washington; D.C.; Wiley University, Marshall, Texas, and Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga. Among the insurance companies underwriting this appropriation are the Standard Life Insurance Company, Atkinson; the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, Durham, N.C., and the Mississippi Life Insurance Company, Memphis, Tenn. Indicative of this demand for trained men, a broadcast message has been sent out by W. H. King, vice president of the Standard Life Insurance Company, in which he urged colored college men to adopt business as a profession. Mr. King in his message invites attention to the

great opportunities offered in the insurance field, stating in connection with his company that "as fertile as our territory is, which covers twelve (12) States, and the District of Columbia, in which more than seven (7,000,000) million colored people live, within a few months Standard Life will be licensed in nine (9) other States, where some three (3,000,000) million additional colored people live."
The appeal to colored young women to enter the business world was recently made by Dr. Sadie T. Mossell, in which she set forth: the important-part which young colored women are now playing in the successful business enterprises operated by colored people.

Great Successes Achieves
Perhaps the most convincing proof of the success of our business, now offers the largest opportunity for outstanding careers is seen in the great development and success already achieved by commercial and financial enterprises operated by our group, the more important of the two. Insurance Company-Citizens Trust-Service Company group in Atlanta, Georgia, with combined resources of approximately ten ($100,000,000) million dollars; the North Carolina, Mutual Life Insurance-Banker's, Fire Insurance Banker at Durham, M. G; the E. C. Brown Company-Payton - Apartment-Brown-Stevens Banker group at Philadelphia, Pa.; Poro College, St. Louis, Mo.; and Madame C. J. Walker Mfg. Co., Indianapolis, Ind. Other business enterprises include the Benefit Insurance Company, Washington, D. C.; the Liberty Life Insurance Company, Chicago, Ill., and the Supreme Life Insurance Company, Columbus, Ohio. In addition to these there are some other institutes, all of which are many other sundry business enterprises operated by colored people, all of which are calling for, and demanding that more stress in the future, in our educational institutions, be placed upon the preparation of all the places of responsibility awaiting them in the World of Business.

nonnie, religious and philanthropical leaders, may have disappointed the good satisfied exponents of everything in all right; but he cheered the hearts of the more enlightened and progressive millions, who in the old copal Church in every state in this country, today, when he proclaimed that "the sun is too high," we can no longer be satisfied with mediocrity or with antiquated methods. We must do our jobs better; we must have public accounts; we must the methods; must replace the old way architects with a plan, who plan their work and work their plan; must be relied on for the construction of our churches in spite of the whims of well wishers, but those lacking in expert knowledge. Mr. Goddard impatiently told the day is not only a day of specialization, but a day of big ideas, big programs, and big men and women.
He assured the good bishops and elergy that the laity must have representation in the councils of the church commensurate with their inward strength. He told the ministers in their election of delegates, general officers and prelates, men of integrity and ability must have the preference. If the African Methodist Episcopal Church, is to keep her home among the great religious institutions of our day.
The admonitions were along the right lines and Prof. Aaron E. Malone, one of the church's stainless men, most advanced business generals, was the right man to make that speech.

Eye-Witness, Who Went To Aid Of Defenseless Girl, Treated Roughly
Street Car Conductor Chases Another Girl for More Than Block—Mistreats Her While No Effort Is Made to Stop Act by Onlookers.
NEW YORK, Oct. 4.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, New York, made public extracts from an open letter published September 22 by the Shreveport Sun, a colored Louisiana newspaper, citing the beating of colored women by white men as a cause of the Negro exodus from that section. The Shreveport Sun gives the following eye-witness' stories.
"On Friday morning, September 7, between 7 and 8 o'clock, I was coming to town on the Highland car. At one of the stops in King's Highway, I heard the conductor ask, 'What did you say?' On looking around I found that he was talking to a young colored woman—the only one on the car. He opened the door of the car, the woman leaped from the car and began running. The conductor left his car and chased her nearly a block. When he overtook her, he struck her several times with his fist, holding his car key in the other hand. The woman showed no fight at all, her only defense being an attempt to escape; but this proved insufficient and the brave, heroic conductor gave the defenseless, helpless colored woman a sound beating on the public highway.
"Several-white men and a few colored men were on the car. Not one

Association's 6,000,000 Membership
The temporary ruin of the Black Star Line has in no way affected the larger work of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, in which now has an appropriate membership of 6,000,000. This organization has succeeded in organizing the Negroes all over the world and we now look forward to a renaissance that will create a new people and bring about the restoration of Ethiopia's ancient glory.
Being black, I have committed an unparadonable offense against the very light colored Negroes in America and the West Indies by making myself famous as a Negro leader of millions. In their view, no black man must rise above them, but I still forge ahead determined to give to the world the truth about the new Negro, who is determined to make and hold for himself a place in the affairs of men. The Universal Negro Improvement Association has been misrepresented by my enemies. They have tried to make it appear that we are hostile to other races. This is absolutely false. We love all humanity. We are working for the peace of the world which we believe can only come about when all races are given their due.
We feel that there is absolutely no reason why, there should be any differences between the black and white races, if each stop to adjust and steady itself. We believe in the
A
word was sail in the defense of this unprotected, helpless colored woman. The white men said nothing because, possibly, they did not eke to be mixed up with the affair, and the colored men said nothing because they knew that it would mean additional trouble in which they would get the worst of the deal regardless to the rightness of their stand." Two White Men Beat Colored Girl "A few weeks ago two white men beat a 15-year-old colored girl on Marshall street in sight of the Post Office building in the presence of many people, states another colored citizen who was struck in the face by one of the assailants of the girl when he attempted to rescue her.
"The colored girl" states Eye Witness, "was going up Marshall St. When she passed two white men, for some reason, which I did not learn, one of the men slapped her down. When she stood on her feet again, the other white man knocked her down with his fist. Then I went to the girl and picked her up. When I straightened up, one of the men struck me in the face with his fist, but I told the girl to go on in the opposite direction, which she did and thus escaped additional brutal treatment. I knew I was in for trouble when I attempted to lift the girl from the ground, but I decided that the risk was necessary. Nobody said anything in defense of this helpless girl or me, although several persons, were lookers-qn. No arrests were made—the girl simply was given a public thrashing on the public highway, and being only a Negro, there was nothing to be said or done about it."
purity of both races. We do not believe the black man should be en-couaged in the idea that his highest-purpose in life is to marry a white woman, but we do believe that the white man should be taught to respect the black woman in the same way as he wants the black man to respect the white woman. It is a helpful dangerous writing of social equalities, urge, as certain elfed leaders "do, that black and white should get together, for that would destroy the racial purity of both.
We believe that the black people should have a country of their own where they should be given the fullest opportunity to develop politically, socially and industrially. The black people should not be encouraged to remain in white people's countries and expect to be Presidents, Governors, Mayors, Senators, Congressmen, Judges and social and industrial leaders. We believe that with the rising ambition of the Negro, if a country is not provided for him in another 50 or 100 years, there will be a terrible clash that will end disproportionately to the black people. We desire to prevent such a clash by pointing the Negro to a home of his own. We feel that all well disposed and broad-minded white men will aid in this direction. It is because of this belief no doubt that my Negro enemies, so as to prejudice me further in the opinion of the public, wickedly state that I am a member of the Ku Klux Klan, even though I am a black man.
I have deprived of the opportunity of properly explaining my work to the white people of America through the prejudice worked up against me by jealous and wicked members of my own race. My success as an organizer was much more than rival Negro leaders could tolerate. They, regardless of consequences, either to me or to the race, had to destroy me by fair means or foul. The thousands of anonymous and overthought letters of other officers and final publishers of the white press by Negro rivals to prejudice me in the eyes of public opinion are sufficient evidence of the wicked and vicious opposition I have had to meet from among my own people, especially among the very lightly colored. But they went further than the press in their attempts to discredit me. They organized clubs all over the United States and the West Indies, and wrote both open and anonymous letters to city, State and Federal officials of this and oth-

er Governments to induce them to use their influence to hamper and destroy me. No wonder, therefore, that several Judges, District Attorneys and other high officials have been against me without knowing me. No wonder, therefore, that the great white population of the islands was a wrong impression of the aims and objects of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the work of Mareus Garvey.
The Struggle of the Future
Having had the wrong education as a start in his racial career, the Negro has become his own greatest enemy. Most of the trouble I have had in advancing the cause of the race has come from Negroes. Booker Washington aptly described the race in one of his lectures by stating that we were like crabs in a barrel, that none would allow the other to climb over, but on any such attempt all would continue to pull back into the barrel the one crab that would make the effort to climb out. Yet, those of us with vision cannot desert the race, leaving it to suffer and die.
Looking forward a century or two, we can see an economic and political death struggle for the survival of the different race groups. Many of our present-day national centers will have become overcrowded with vast surplus populations. The fight for bread and position will be keen and severe. The weaker and unprepared group is bound to go under. That is why, visionaries as we are in the Universal Negro Improvement Association, we are fighting for the founding of a Negro nation in Afrika, so that there will be no clash between black and white and that each race will have a separate existence and civilization all its own without courting suspicion and hatred or eyeing each other with jealousy and rivalry within the borders of the same country.
White men who have struggled for and built up their countries and their own civilizations are not disposed to hand them over to the Negro or any other race without let or hindrance. It would be unreasonable to expect this. Hence any vain assumption on the part of the Negro to imagine that he will one day become President of the Nation, Governor of the State, or Mayor of the city in the countries of white men, is like waiting on the devil and his angels to take up their residence in the Realm on High and direct there the affairs of Paradise.
Race Finds No Real Freedom In The South
Migration of Negroes to a Country of Their, Own Is Solution Suggested by Southern Authority.

ship with about one thousand Negro emigrants sailed from Savannah for Liberia. Standing amd. 10.000 of his race and raising his black face heavenward, Bishop Turner prayed that God would safely speed the little craft to a land where the color of a man's skin was not a crime. Ten thousand Negro voices sobbed "Amen;" an aged colored woman shouted for very joy. What has been America's attitude to such heroic incidents? Either indifference or disapproval and ridicule. Our colonization societies have ceased to function, and we give no further thought to Liberia, being content that the Negro shall remain in the South, "a people within a people."
Shall we not, I earnestly ask, speedily revive the old colonization society, send another Goethals with means and equipment and make Liberia as healthy as Panama — and above all, shall we not tell the truth about Liberia? Plucky little republic, at our request, she jumped into the great war and lost shipping and the war, and the war was by German gunboats, and yet the United States is baggling about making a loan of $5,000,000, promised by President Wilson and recommended by President Harding.
During the present year a British commission after nine months' travel reported to its Government that in the three essentials — climate, productivity and health (with proper attention—Africa is the most favored of continents, that it possesses marvelous flora, wonderful waterpower, fertile soil, extensive mineral deposits, abundant hardwood. In the face of discouragement, 100,000 civilized Negroes, of whom about 12,000 are American Christian immigrants and their descendants, now reside on the Liberian littoral; and Monrovia, its capital, has a population of 6,000 souls. A railroad running from Monrovia 150 miles up the St. Paul River, across waterfalls and into the hinterland, would open up a garden spot, with lowlands upsurround to our far South, with uplands equal in climate and elevation to our North Atlantic States.
As soon as we but make a co-operative start toward Negro migration and colonization and cease the vain attempt to pour two gallons of water into a one-gallon vessel — to bostow citizenship upon the Negro in the South—his condition will improve. What satisfaction does one get from reading, documents like "The Negro's Progress in Fifty Years?" Of what avail are houses, land or education, forsooth, to one in a state of bondage? Better ignorance and poverty for him. Shall the promise be kept to the ear and broken to the hope? I cannot agree with Mecklen, in "Democracy and Race Conflict," that the race question is essentially insoluble. The Negroes are tractable and, looking upon themselves as a "peculiar people," will follow such course as their leaders may map out for the "race"; a course which should be thought out, it must again be insisted, not along the impossible, makeshift lines
of racial equality in the South, but in the quite opposite direction and in terms of hundreds, of years. While permanent plans are under way, every energy should be exerted to educate and fit the Negro for a new, a sana life under humiliated salesmen. The Negro will hardly harbor the Fin. Assize until she lives up to the truth that the white man is right, that the Negro is also right, and that of these two contradictions neither is wrong.

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Sept. 27. After studying the economical situation surrounding the Negro of Los Angeles, I was very much pleased to witness conditions of increasing prosperity and aggressiveness manifesting itself in every line of commercial endeavor, and every day brings new and gratifying evidence of its continuance. The commercial outlook for the Los Angeles Negro is very promising and I see clear sailing for an indefinite period. The only thing which would have a tendency to curb his prosperity is bitterness, malice, hate or other destructive emotions. The Negro is slowly but surely awakening to a national consciousness of the utter fatality of passion sway (when conscience and thought point a nobler way. In order for the Negro to assume his rightful place in the commercial world, it is vital that he produce and manufacture, but never the factor which is of supreme significance is the spirit of co-operation and unity which would help the Negro economically and financially. When the spirit of solidity becomes deeply rooted in the soul of the Negro, it will excite a new social order which will stimulate financial and commercial prosperity; poverty amidst our race will be superceded by justice and aggressiveness.
The Negro all over the United States will have to gradually tackle his job on the principle that a heritage must be developed and not talked about. The Negro needs to harness all of his power in behalf of constructive, economical activities. We must crowd out selfishness and let the Golden Rule be law governing men and institutions of our race.
My above declarations are drawn only after a critical and minute panoramic analysis of the Negro's pressing economical need, and are intended to solve and remedy our perplexity instead of confounding a complicity.
Weather in the United States is the result of a battle between heat waves and cold waves near the North Pole, says the United States Weather Bureau. The theory is that heat waves flowing northward come in contact with cold waves traveling southward. The two waves meet at what is called the polar frontier, and the weather bureau is establishing radio stations on this frontier to broadcast weather information to this country.
This struggle of the elements is interesting, if true. In spring the heat waves coming from the south are gradually pushing back the cold waves that originated at the pole. By summer the heat has gained the victory and the cold is confined in the icy regions up north.
This cold air, however, is compressed in a narrow region and resisting the heat with all its might. By autumn it is gradually breaking through and during the winter it has chased the heat waves back to the equator.
This constant battle, and retreat and advance of the two waves of air, explains the different seasons in the United States and Canada.

Madame is very chic when she wears only one earring. They say one, or none at all.
Paris created the furred gown.
The one fascinating evening gown has only one sleeve.
An afternoon gown of sea-green and beige checked Georgette-crepe, is inserted in front and is made entirely of small knife pleatings of the same material.
Ah, Madame, how extremely chic, the henna gown, the henna hat, the pair of stunning henna shoes, the henna swagger, and last, but not least a trifle touch of henna to hair.
Does not Madame look like a picture now?
The colored swagger is the latest from Paris.
Paris forecasts shorter skirts for winter.
Leather hats, leather gowns, leather
pants, and shoes are vogis and
smart in Paris.
The two Autumn tones, entirely n w shades from Paris, are Mordore Tan and Vagabond Brown. The brown rich and mellow and infinitely more becoming. The other a pallid tan, which she subtly blends with deeper colors.

It is not possible however, for a minister to attend properly to his parochial duties without a more thorough study of human personality than is given at the present time at any theological seminary."
Dr. Cabot believed clergymen should invade the field now occupied by the doctor. His stock in trade should embrace both physical and spiritual disturbances. Dr. Cabot said, adding that "miraculous healing has occurred and may occur at any time when great desire to heal meets great faith in the possibility of healing."

Colored people who know the White woman say that the shooting was caused by reasons other than "raising the rent." The White woman is black. Merrit will recover.

Race Witness Attempts To End Life, Later Admits "Intimate" Photos Fake
Robert E. Lee Tries to Leap to Death After Confessing Bribery Charge.
CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. — Shaken to the point of attempting suicide as his panic-stricken associates told detailed stories in the Stokes defamation case, Robert E. Lee Friday admitted that the photographs showing Mrs. Helen Elwood Stokes (white) in the company of Wallace Tyler were "faked." He told Assistant State's Attorney Charles Wharton the name of the photographer who had made them by the double-exposure method and gave an address to which detective sergeants were sent immediately.
Lee, whose admissions came reluctantly, despite his nervous collapse, assured his questioners that Mrs. Stokes had never been in Tyler's company, so far as he knew, and that the colored manager of the notorious Beauz-Arts cafe probably had never seen Mrs. Stokes.
Defiant Attitude Breaks
The witness, who was alleged to have been an agent of W. E. D. Stokes in obtaining evidence purporting to show that Mrs. Stokes had formerly been an inmate of a resort in the old Chicago levee, maintained a defiant attitude toward his questioners until early Friday morning. When he was confronted by B. E. Firse and listened to Firse's story of how he had offered a $1,500 bribe for a false affidavit, Lee threw up his hands and walked nervously toward the window.
While John Murphy, the guard, turned to look the door Lee threw up the window and started to clamber over the sill, which is six stories above the sidewalk.
Detective Murphy seized him and prevented the fall. As Lee was led to police custody, he muttered over and over again, "I muted. I want to end it all."
Lee, who lives at 3725 Indiana Avenue, has been connected with the takes case from the beginning. Following his attempt at suicide the police invested him and are holding at Hudson avenue.
Five years testimony and Lee's desperate effort to get out of trouble

Convenient Credit Terms Easily Arranged
tears the lid off the whole case, investigators for the state declare. A conspiracy is alleged in which W. E. D. Stokes, New York multimillionaire, is seeking to defame the name of Mrs. Helend Elwood Stokes, his wife. Lee is a Stokes agent. "We have the goods now. The whole mess is cleared up." declared Mr. Wharton, in charge of the investigation.
Tells of Loaning Tyler Photos
Mrs. Wallace Tyler, widow of the cafe manager, was found and corroborated the night's developments. She said that Lee went to her three weeks ago and asked to borrow some pictures of Tyler. He wanted them, he said, for a prospective tombstone design. She gave him two photographs, which he returned last week.
As Lee was being taken down the elevator in the county building to a police cell he was heard to whisper to Casey Davis, the operator: "Tell my wife I'm locked up." The police notified Prosecutor Wharton, who summoned and questioned Davis. He said he knew nothing of Lee or the case. Mr. Wharton said that he would quiz Gladys Hunt, 3208 South Wabash avenue, an alleged intimate of Lee.

YORK, Pa., Oct. 4—Oscar Green
24 years old, was shot and killed
at Spring Grove Saturday night by
Leroy Turner, who, angered by a
disturbance which occurred in a
room adjoining the one occupied by
himself and wife, sent three bullets
through the board partition separating
the two rooms. Turner surrendered
himself to Constable Shue
and was committed to jail.
The shooting occurred before midnight. Turner was disturbed by the noise made by a drinking and card party, he claims, and after he had requested that the noise cease, his wife being in a delicate condition, he fired.

city of Pennsylvania. His wife was Miss Naomi Tulane, daughter of Victor H. Tulane, a prominent business man of Montgomery, AL, and a trustee of Tuskegee Institute.
Baby Tandy Involved
The arrest of Dr. Vincent created a sensation in New York when news of the former arrest; and the cause was circulated. The suit grew out of alleged slenderous remarks said to have been made against Mrs. Tandy connecting her name with that of a prominent New York business man of the estate operator. The outcome of the case and is said that before it is completed many other prominent people will be brought to the court. When asked if it is contemplated starting a suit in behalf of Master Vertner W. Tandy, Jr., age 2½ years, Major Tandy referred his questioners to his attorney, who positively refused to answer.
Research has revealed that Mrs. Tand'7 is not the only person in New York society who has been annoyed by slanderous remarks from the lips of Dr. Vincent, nor is this his first experience of the courts. According to the record, the elfphil District Court of New York is rested about three years ago for assault upon his sister, Miss Pearl Vincent.
The frequent mentioning of Baby Tand' in connection with the case has given rise to the rumor that some angles of the suit will rival the Stillman controversy, it is said. New York is disturbed over the disclosures the case may develop.

but the president and several members considered the article as a malicious attack upon the organization.
Many Speak
Following the reports of ward chairmen, who were busily engaged in putting over the Magee-Oliver-Flynn ticket, Mrs. Lampkin brought up the Reeves matter. Mrs. Luella Howard, the secretary, read the editorial in question, and the discussion began.
Mrs. Rosa Diggs was the first to champion the cause of the president. She said that it was not good policy to go out and talk to strangers about one's family, and that Mrs. Reeves was a member of the league and her criticism should have been made to the body. Mrs. Frances Riley Bolling said she did not feel that Mrs. Reeves meant the article as a direct insult to the County Chairman, Mrs. Lampkin, and that she felt that it had been written for political propaganda. She stated that upon asking Mrs. Reeves what she meant by publishing the article, Mrs. Reeves said that "she had no apologies to make." Mrs. Evelyn Payne said there was "only one Daisy Lampkin in Pittsburgh and no one could do as she had done." She suggested that a committee be appointed to dispose of the matter. Mrs. Holmes said she felt that the article was unfortunate coming at the time when it did. She bought: Mrs. Reeves "should be pitied." Mrs. James Burwell was opposed to the idea of answering the article. "The less we talk about this thing the better." She further stated that there were a number of men and women who believed Mrs. Lampkin received a large sum of money in the Magge mayoralty campaign. "You know this is not true," said Mrs. Burwell.
Mrs. Sarah McClanahan, Mrs. Rebecca Aldridge, Mrs. Anna Miller, Mrs. Curtis and others spoke to the effect that the article injured the organization and that a committee should meet Mrs. Reeves in her office. Mrs. Ina Wayne, of the Third Ward, said the editorial had really hurt the work of the organization in her ward, many women believing the facts disbelied. Then Mrs. Lampkin spoke. "I consider the article as an attack upon my leadership and an attack upon the organization. I considered Mrs. Reeves my friend, as far as the friendship is concerned, it is at end. Mrs. Reeves told me that she had said she meant in the editorial and that many women near to me thought, the same way, but were not woman enough to declare themselves."
Mrs. Lampkin then related her trials and efforts to put the league over; of having to act for committees that were not functioning. "Why the hand-picked committees," she said. "We have a political action committee, headed up by Mrs. George Winstead, that should attend to the seeing of candidates . . . but the committee did not do its work. and if any of you women thikp I am going to let this organization die waiting on some committee to act, you are mistaken.
We have been criticized about the number in our organization, but what can we do if the women are invited and they do not come? We

In referring to the question of greed and bribe, Mrs. Lampkin said: "Any woman who thinks I could have gotten the recognition for you that I did and then got paid off myself, doesn't know anything about politics."
She closed her speech with the rather startling declaration: "I had said that I would resign; that I would not work for you like I have, neglecting my home and my husband's work and not be appreciated. But in the face of your spirit here tonight I stand here as your county chairman until you elect another, and all the devils in hell cannot prevent me from doing so."
Following the meeting there was much discussion of the matter. Out of a reported membership of 3,000, only 38 attended the meeting.
PRETTY GIRL HELD IN
SLAVERY BY "MASTER"
(Continued From Page One)
Wanted to Leave Town
The girl said she had been warned by the pastor of a colored church in Hammond that she had better get out of town, because the Ku Klux Klan was getting ready to tar and feather her and then throw her "in the creek," because her relationship to Graziano had become a town scandal. She was also warned by telephone, she said.
It was because of fears that these threats would be carried out, the girl testified, that she ran away to New Orleans, borrowed $75 from friends there, and started for Chiacog. Graziano was put on the stand and sworn. He testified that the Armstead girl came to him three and a half years ago as a servant. He did improve his examination, however, Graziano hesitatingly admitted that he "shot the girl two or three times." Graziano, under cross-examination by Assistant State's Attorneys Milton Smith and Michael Romano, admitted that the ring he at first said the girl stole and was worth $1,000 was worth only about $250.

"Will you write us a word signifying your willingness to join in this great crusade for freedom?"
Quite a number of the citizens were killed and wounded as well as several members of an Illinois National Guard Regiment, also stationed near the town.
The men were court martialled. 41 were imprisoned for life. Several for terms ranging from two to twenty years, while 13 of the soldiers were hanged on December 6th, 1917. Some of the men have since died in prison and some have been liberated. It is with an idea of helping the number of these unfortunate who have suffered enough that the drive for liberation is launched by the National Association. The Bulletin, which is signed by the secretary, James Weldon Johnson, is published below and clearly outlines the program, which is addressed to the Christian ministers: "First, we are asking that you and your church set aside Sunday, November 11, as Houston Martrys Day.

After 18 years on the Virginiaian peninsula Mrs. Brown hangs home with his wagon still hitched to a star. Forming a partnership with Andrew F. Stevens, Jr., he launched the present financial ship. That they have been skilled skippers on the financial sea is self evident.
Mr. Stevens, the junior member of the firm, is the son of that Andrew Stevens, who was one of the founders of the Citizens Republican Club. He is a graduate of Lincoln and of Penn and is still a bachelor. He is a member of the Sesqui-Centennial committee; of the Bryn Mawr-Horse Show, which numbers among its main line members those who speak at Lewins and who Cabots and the Pennsylvania Legislature. At the last session he fathomed the Stevens' Anti-Lynching bill. He is a patron of arts and sports, a banker by vocation and a politician by avocation.
"The E. C. Brown & Co." really business is a natural child of the bank. And what a lusty youngster it is! Under the capable, energetic management of Solon P. Chamberlain this organization has done a volume of business, which compares with the Pennsylvania company, Mastbaum Brothers and Fleisher, etc. Their Philadelphia' holdings are assessed at over $200,000, and in New York they pay taxes on $2,500,000 realty.
Mr. Chamberlain has grown with the business. When a youngster in a newport News kindergarten he proudly proclaimed that he was E. C. Brown's office boy, because he was allowed to stand on a stool and answer the telephone. Graduating from Hampton he came to Philadelphia and entered Temple University. It was but natural that "E. C. should commandeer his services

A Real Governor
The alleged attack occurred Thursday and immediately a gang of bloodthirsty whites; whose habit of taking the law into their own hands, had been somewhat checked because of the migratory wave, reverted back to their old tactics, with the result that a reign of terror was established.
Leaders of the mob sent an order broadcast, summarily demanding that all Negroes be across the Tennessee line within 24 hours.
Their spirit broken by the suddenness of the order, and those who would have disregarded the order, fearing for the safety of their wives and children, the colored-citizens obeyed the order. There was nothing else for them to do. Surrounded by enemies on all sides, and despairing of any outside aid, they realized that to stay would be equivalent to issuing an invitation for their death.
It was here that Governor Morrison stepped into the breach, his decisive action showing marked similarity to that of Governor Walton in his "fight to the death" against mob rule.
An order was immediately dispatched to Adjutant General Metts to speed to the scene of disorder and there restore order, regardless of the cost.

OME time ago, the K, K, K. held a parade in the little
fe S town of Carnegie, Pennsylvania. There was a demand
* made upon the paraders to. desist from their demon-
strations, but they refused to listen, and a riot started. A
wasmber of the Klan was murdered by a concealed person
‘whose identity the jury of the Coroner says is “not known.”
+ > The whole affair was due to the. failure of the Klan to
fisten. This is one of.the very objectionable features of their
program. They refuse to listen to any one, whether the warn-
ing-be from the law*or from an individual. This'is why the
Invisible Empire does not grow in popular favor’among the
people higher up. ‘The organization is known grid designated
as representing “The man lower down.” K. K. K., therefore,
is equal to “The Man Lower Down.”. This designation keeps
the Klan separated from the men and women of higher con-
€eptions and nobler ideals. > -
! But back to the investigation of the death of the Klans.
man, There were any number of people who testified. Two
witnesses testified positively that they saw the man who did
the shodting, and they named the man.-They even repeated
the name, and. the man whose name was used as the mur-
derer was present at the Coroner’s‘heating. He’ even testified
himself. : , :
After hearing all the witnesses, mostly members of the
Klan, and aftér consuming about two days takir z testimony
the jury retired, and deliberated briefly. The verdict said
that the murder‘was committed, but by some one not known
to the jury. In short, the testimony of the Klan amounted to
naught before the jury. The complete exoneration spells a
new. classification for Klansmen. When white men'refuse to
believe other white men under oath; there is a new classifi-
eation for the white man who is not believed. When he be-
comes unworthy, of belief by his brother, he has descended
to the level lower down. *
If the Carnegie case’ is any criterion, we may expect
teere people to shoot Klansmen when they parade against
the wishes of the law, and an indictment for murder, will
‘be impossible. This makes our country a far different place
than was contemplated by its founders. We are going, and
yoing rapidly— ji
' Page President Warinamaker
FEW weeks ago the Mayor of Johnstown, Pennsylvania,
A ordered all Negroes of less than seven years’ residence
’ to leave the town. Mexicans were included in the
order. -As’soon as the absurdity of the order reached the
outer world, and civilization got its breath, sentiment against
the attitude of the flood city mayor began to develop in all
parts of the country.
President Wannamaker, of the ‘American Cotton ‘Asso-
ciation, issued a telegram to Goversior Pinchot of Pennsyl-
vania, calling the chief executive's attention to the unfair
tactics of the Johnstown Mayor. Mr. Wannamaker said that
the South did not order all Negroes ‘éut of any given com-
munity because one or two happened to commit crime. The
telegram was an argument for the return of the Negroes to
the South, and it employed the Johnstown incident as a pre-
text to say that Negroes who were run out of Johnstown
were welcomed back to the South, to the farms and other
places where their servicés were badly needed.
The'telegram as a blow to the JoXnstown mayor, and
to Pennsylvania. It was more than that, It was a direct thrust
at the North. It was a very plain way of saying that the
North is treating the Negro worse than the South, and using
the single case of Johnstown as proof. Of course, one inci-
dent is not proof.of anything, but in the Johnstown case, it
furnished telling argument in the ears of Negroes who aré
not any foo securely. stationed f& the North. : 7
= But’ Pennsylvania has been given an answer to the
Wannamaker telegram. North Carolina-affords that answer,
and coming from a southern state,“it has considerable sig-
nificance. In the State of North Carolina, a whole commu:
nity of Negroes were driven out bodily. They were ordered
out of town, and some very definite agencies undertook to
fee-that they got out immediately and conclusively. The
Governor of the State of North/ Carolina, when informed of
the exodus of the Negroes, ordered out the State Troopers
to escort all the exiles back to their homes, and to their
employment.
: This North Cazplina incident answers President Wanna-
maker completely. The Seuth has gone on record as doing
the very thing he contended it did not’do, The only answer
Mr. Wannamaker may npw make is that North Carolina
learned her dirty tricks from Pennsylvania. :

is unknown,

UT. in Leavenworth, in a penal institution owned by the
(©) Whited States of Ameiice, are sixty od American cit
izens locked into penal cells because of a deliberate
injustice. This is strong language, but the case réquires strong
words, Errors are none the less errors, even when made by
governments, and to correct such errors is the task of the
entire Negro population of this country. =
Six years ago, this country saw soldiers transferred
from the unifarms of their government ‘to the bars and
stripes of a penal institution because they dared assert their
own strength in behalf of their own rights, lives and liberty.
The imprisonment grew out of the riot of August 23rd and
24th, when trouble arose in Houston, Texas becatse some
white men resented the presénce of Negroes.in Houston. The
fact that the Negroes were soldiers making ready their de-
parture to the front against.a common foe made no, differ-
‘ence with those who preferred to see their country, lose a
war.than sce Negroes enjoy the rights and privileges $f a
soldier,—an American soldier. ;
The trial of the men accused attracted wide attention.
The thirteen who were hanged paid the penalty exacted,
whether guilty or innocent, others have been imprisoned for
terms ranging from a number of years to life. The-men were
tried under circumstances not cond@cive to orderly hear-
ings where witnesses could testify free from threat or coer-
cion: It was then, as it is now, the opinion of. millions that
the “boys” were hurriedly tried and hastily. as-well as.un-
warrantably punished.
But times have changed since those days. Everyone has
‘hod time to reflect, and to cool. The administration of jus-
tice has even changed hands, and the government’has been
passed from one set of hands and hearts to another. We be-
lieve that justice still lives, and because we believe it, we
are going to seek an expression of Justice for-our boys,—
Uncle Sam’s boys, We are asking every American, be he or
she black or white of skin, to sign the official petition pub-
lished elsewhere in this issue of The Pittsburgh Courier, and
send it’as directed to our “Clearing House” for the Houston
riot cases, viz: The National Association for the Advance-
ment of Colored People. The cause is just, and it must not
fail. Action is demanded, not requested, by the very pressue
of. the cases. It is hoped no one will entertain any possible
pretext for a failure to-help justice redeem heraglf ,and our
boys redeem their freedom. It is America’s Petition. Sign
it. .
(E.early reports from the Oklahoma election, about
which so much was said in the public ‘press, indicate
thatthe Klan has triumphed over Governor Walton. The
results may be a triumph for the Klan, and a temporary de-
feat for Walton, but that is the least significant feature of
the whole mess.’ | : :
The significant thing to this country is the final result. It
appears from Oklahoma papers that there were floggings,
exposures, mutilations, and other brutalities committed upon
individuals by unknown persons traveling and working ds an
organization. Investigations .by civil authorities .revealed
‘nothing, except that. the organization was the Ku Klux Klan.
Governor Walton called in the military authority to investi-
gate the floggings, mutilations and other brutalities, and the
whole trouble followed. : |
~The election, as we hear it, appears to have been held
without due compliance with the law. If this is true, Governor
Walton, will have-the last say in the courts, and the whole’
election may be declared illegal. But that will be in the future,
if it happens at all. The triumph of the:Klan:is-NOW. and has.
its effect in Oklahoma and in other parts of the gountry. The
triumph of Governor Walton may come too late to’ save our
system of government. When the €tash comes, the Oklahoma
people: will remember that they supported the Klan at a very’
great expense to organized government. sl
