LOGANSPORT CONVENTION A GREAT EASTER EVENT Friend, Kan, April 16—Easter Sunday, April 1st, and likewise April's 1st Day, there gathered at District No 8 school house at Dithth, Kansas, a large crowd of Western Kansans at feeding the Logansport Union Sunday School Convention. There were representatives from Oakley and Pleasant View. The Sunday School was in charge of Miss Annie Williams, the illustrious instructor of No. 8. The lesson was very helpful and many truths were brought out concerning this period of our San-iorn's life and trials. Invocation by by Deanon J. J. Clark, after the welcome address by Matt Jones, Jr. and response by Harold D. Washington, of Pleasant View Sunday School sang "I Know That My Rochemer Lives." The hour for prowclay having arrived, Dottie Mishaney, Rev. M. S. Jones chose for his text, Matt 2817 "The Resurrection." He prescheduled a soul-stirring sermon, painted a vivid wood picture of the Crossification, death and resurrection of Christ and exhibited all to greater faith in their Master. At noon the contents of well filled baskets were spread on the grass. All present partook of the sumptious re-past. It being Easter Sunday, the afternoon was devoted largely to the child's program. The recitations, songs, and readings were all good, which speaks well for the TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 20, 1923 Tells Arkansas' Governor Why Negroes Leave South Tojeka, Kansas, April 24, 1923 To His Excellency, The Governor of Arkansas, Little Rock, Arkansas. Dear Governor: We note through daily press dispatches under the date line of Little Rock, that there is a serious labor shortage. A copy of the statement follows below. New Negro Exodus Is On Little Rock, Ark. April 14.—The most serious farm labor shortage in the history of the state is confronting Arkansas farmers and, in fact, already is here, according to the plantation owners and the state department of labor. For the last six weeks an enormous number of apples for common farmers has been coming to the state employment bureau. Most of the calls have been from farmers, although lumber mill and construction contractors arearmoring for their share. A month ago E. L. McKinley, deputy commissioner of labor, decided to investigate the situation and determine the reason for the labor shortage and to seek a remedy. The chief cause, he says, is an exodus of Negro farm labor to the cities and towns and in hundreds of cases, to the North. Not even Jesus Sounds in a Believer's Ear." Dr. children as well as their instructors. Miss Josephine Allen rendered an instrumental solo and vocal number, "Mary Don't You Don't You Mouln," which was highly appreciated and she was heartily enclosed. Also of special interest was a vocal duet by Mr. X. W. Ward and Dr. W. F. Carey, "How Sweet the name of Carey, a mellow tenor and Mr. Ward at his best with that wonderful bass voice of him. He is a singer of great talent, being a member of one of Chicago's largest choirs. Their effort was loudly applauded and they sang as an encore, "Rucked in the Cradle of the Deep." Then followed the distribution of laster eggs which as usual, pleased the little folks. The convention was well attended. A large number of visitors were present, many of them being white. Among the visitors were Mrs. Lawrence Allen of Starkton, and her daughter, Miss Josephine, guests of Liev. and Mrs. M. S. Jones. The next session will be held No. 50 School house July 1921 SEE—George Wright for real estate Pargains in suburban and city property. Phone (Dial 29) 11 X 1. 1949 Strong Avenue. five thousand young Arkansas Negroes were drafted into the army, was the plantation owner confronted with the shortage that exists today. in the war, when more than twenty. An investigation among local men who own some of the largest cotton farms in the state shows without exception that whole families of Negro laborers have moved off the farms in the last few weeks and in some instances every able-bodied Negro has some. Mr McKinley has not been able to trace enough of the emigrants to determine what lies behind the exodus, but in almost every case investigated, relatives and acquaintances of the deceased have imparted the information that the family moved up north where the husband or the son was earning. To be a day it is Mr. McKinley's union that the restriction of emigration, compiled with the industrial activity, particularly in the building, steel and motor car trades, is responsible for the higher wages being paid labor in the north, which is drawing the southern Nebraska from the plantations. Your Deputy Labor Commissioner seems not to have learned enough to tell why there is a shortage except that so many Negroes are having Will Dear governor, we can help him out in his quandary. You remember the Debra root? You know what caused it? The plantation and land owners were robbing the Negro tenants out of their crops, and labor as well, and when they attempted to go into court to protect their rights, first becoming organized by calling meetings in their churches and school houses, to seek a remedy by employing attorneys, they were conned upon and mobbed like cattle in the slacksards. hangerous courts were held, the third degree applied, innocent men, were compelled to turn state's evidence against innocent men to hide the crimes of white planters and land owners and hotters of colored people who wanted such a chance to outrage colored women and children. Hill came to Kansas to save himself from being lynched and burned at the stake, and your state spent an untold amount of money to extradite him. Our Governor would not at your officers have him than your officers sought the aid of the United States Government and were refused, al because your state was asking for an unjust claim because the rights of a colored citizen could not be fairly adjudicated in a law court in Arkansas, where a white man's word is law and gospel over that of a colored man, when the issues were clearly drawn between the races. Your courts and juries are made up of all white men who feel duty bound to carry out the unwritten law of the south — that no colored man has any right that a white man is bound to respect. Since this is the case and since the REBECCA TABERNACLE HOLDS INTER9STING MEETING Kansas City, Kan., April 14.—Rebecca Tabernacle held her regular monthly meeting April 2nd. So many Daughters were present that there weren't enough chairs to seat them. We were visited by Dr. Della Kemp, G. H. of this city and Dtr. Bright of Mary E. Dickson Tabernacle of Kansas City, Vo. We also had cletion of of fivers, held by Dtr. Kemp. The following officers were elected: Dtr. Pauline Woodford, C. P.; Dtr. Lena R. Dwns, C. R.; Edith Edmonda, T.; Dtr. Kara Staples, A.; Dtr.

We also had added to our number Dtr. Pessie Stamps, transferred from Sahouit Tabernacle of Oklahoma. After the meeting we were served to a very dainty "Ten" of which Dtr. Alice Elam was chairman. The menu consisted of pressed beef and lettuce sandwiches, hot tea and cake. During the tea we were favored with a vocal solo by Mrs. Martie Motley, from Rebecca Tabernacle, a piano solo by Mrs. Bertha Green; a drum solo, by Mrs. G. E. Williams, and saw solo by Mrs. Emma Black. The last three participants are members of the Burleigh Music Club of this city. Dtr. Pauline Woodfork, C. P., Dtr. Emma S. Black, Reporter. Elaine riots, colored people's have been migrating from your great, undeveloped state full of resources, and going north, east, and west where they can at least breathe a little free air. They want schools in every district for their children, with good school houses and well paid instructors. A state where no distinction is made in favor of a white teacher of the same grade and where the same amount of work is required, simply because one happens to be colored and the other white. Colored people are not encouraged to vote and are intimidated by objections, election laws which deprives them of the ballot where they could vote for the man who would administer the laws justly to all. They would vote for a white man, let him be a slave, democrat, or Republican, if he were fair to all; that they can't do in Arkansas, so they are going to states like Kansas, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan and many other states where they can accumulate wealth, educate their children; where free schools and colleges abound in great numbers; states where white people like to meet intelligent educated and progressive colored people and encourage them. Now, Dear Governor, if you will have your legislature to enact some wholesome laws wherein tenants and laborers have the same rights that land and plantation owners have, and appoint officers who will enforce them; report all black laws on your statute books, let your commercial organizations encourage thrifty colored people plung all lines of business and professions, your labor commissioner would not be worrying because the colored people are leaving it live in which they have so well. They love the good white people there and hate to leave them their humble shelter but they are forced to do so on account of the cruel and harsh treatment they are subjected to. Cruel and harsh treatment will drive a dog away, let alone a human. The southern colored and white people should get along like two peas in a pool. They are all mixed up so you can't tell very well which race either belongs to and it is no fault of the colored people. Governor please have a law enacted whereby all white men shall be compelled to take care of their children by colored women and, the same for colored men by white women. Make this a law and you will break up some of this race prejudice. The colored people of Arkansas want to stay and will, if you will recognize them as citizens, if the Jew, the Indian, Mexican and other foreigners can on lay the same rights in Arkansas that a white man can, why can't the colored man who made that state and the south PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR SUFFERS HEAVY FIRE LOSS Kansas City, Mo, April 20.—Special Dr. Theo Smith, one of the leading druggists in Kansas City, suffered a heavy loss by fire a few days ago. His large stock of drugs and sundries was almost a total loss. He will be back on the job within a short time. Dr. M. I. Flynn, the manager is eager to open up. He is a fine, dignified Christian gentleman who always tries to please his customers, and Mr. Smith is so pleased to have such a man connected with his business, as he stands for nothing but progress and strictly business. The same treatment to all his customers is his motto. He enjoys a fine trade from both races and his customers are clamoring for him to open C. H. SEARLE FOR SENATOR His friends say the farmers and laboring classes will take to him like a duck to water, and the business people will follow, and the women voters want be slow. Representative C. H. Searle, of the Thirty-fifth district, today announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for state senator from Shawnee county, to succeed Senator Hugh T. Flerer. Matt Weightman, former member of the legislature from Shawnee county, recently announced for the position, and Searle's statement today doubtless means a fight for the nomination. Scarle has served two terms as member of the legislature from Shawnee county, and was chairman of the house insurance committee during the last session. He is manager of the Scarle Adjustment bureau, and for twenty years was state agent and adjuster for a fire insurance company. He is also actively interested in agriculture and stock raising, and is a member of the Grange. He owns three Shawnee County farms and devotes much time to farm work. Scarle's home is at 1230 Garfield Avenue, Topeka. He was first elected to the house in 1920, and re-elected for two years last fall. Y. M. C. A. DRIVE GOES OVER As we go to press the Y. M. C. A. financial drive shows every indication of going over the top. Everybody who is interested in the upbuilding of the youth is urged to contribute to this fund LB DING BUSINESS MAN Kansas City, Mo. - Mr. J. W. Crowder, who owns a fine Barber Shop at 1000 East 12th street, is one of Kansas City's leading business men and politicians; a staunch Republican; lived in Kansas City over thirty-five years. His friends are talking of sending him as a delegate to the next Republican National Convention. He is one of the kind the party can depend on; never was a deserter. He was foreman of the Street Department three different times under Republican administrations in Kansas City, Mo. He recently bought a six thousand dollar home at 1300 Garfield avenue where he and his devoted wife enjoy life. She is a fine Christian lady and devotes much of her time to church work and charity. Mr. Crowder was born in Boone County Mo., fifty years ago. He is one of Missouri's famous ninuurs who has hunted "crows and 'opossom all his life has raised and sold more Missouri dogs than any other man in the state. 'nows a good dog the prompt he is. His eyes upon it. In the public days of hunting and real sport he was sought after by the leading and wealthy sportsmen of Missouri Kansas and the West, and sold hounds at fabulous prices. He is a close observer and makes many friends. what they are today, enjoy those rights and privileges now. Try this remedy. Governor, and if it does not work, send for us and we will make it work. Here's hoping that the God of peace will open the southern white man's eyes to his sense of duty. Yours, Nick Chiles. Editor, The Topeka Plaindeen'er. President, The Kansas Defense Society.

THE BEACON LIGHT We thought that it was only the older members of our race who were affected with anything like an "Inferiority Complex," but the other morning we came across a real young, and we had thought, well-educated young 'ady who has tried in her own little way to impress upon us the fact that she is in a class by herself when it come to things intellectual, who has that malady. The symptoms came to the surface when she made the astounding assertion that she didn't consider Negro professional men capable of rendering competent service. She was trained, so she claims, in a vocation usually confined to white people. Perhaps it is because she failed to measure up to her white sisters that she considers all other Negroes inferior when it comes to doing things which bring into competition with white people. Anyway that is the opinion most people will have of her when she utters such silly statements as that. It is time for the who's body politic of any race to become alarmed when its youth has such a state of mind. This disease (and it is a serious disease) exhibits itself in the youth. An intensive study of Negro history would go a long way toward remedying the defects of this nature. OUR LAWRENCE VISITORS Recently the Lawrence Forum sent their exchange program to the Topeka Forum, (The Topeka Forum had sent a program to Lawrence at an earlier date). The program progressed nicely until a discussion on a paper by a Physician from Lawrence, "Fundamentals and Fear," was reached. After he had finished reading his paper, the audience was invited to discuss the subject. Of course nobody dreamed that those who ventured to have anything to say were supposed to either agree with the good doctor or necessarily enlarge upon what he said, but they did get the impression that they were being asked to express their own opinions, and this they did. Nobody offered to correct them and the learned doctor sat like a sphinx during the whole discussion. When the discussion ended, he rose and proceeded to tell his hearers that the people of Topeka did not have a very good knowledge of Brain and Brawn By Merril C. Smith JACK DEMPSER'S SCLILOQUY "Ah, me! if one were on'y not so old. Another, frail and far too light if weight; And still a third, too young, though strong and bold. A fourth too dark of skin. Ah, cruel fate. That made me such a man, a thing of star. To all the world! Monarch I am Of boys far and near. Each mighty flat is like a battering ram! When I do ope my mouth let no dog bark! Alma for a champion, lost he find the park His home, a lowly bench his wooden bed— Vt. sweet Mu'doon, let Jack knock someone dead!" —From Boxing, London, England In the recent park meet between Imporia Teachers and Baker, Williams of Imporia, was high point man, with fifteen points, taking first in the century, in 10:01 time; the 220 dash at 23:06 and the broad jump, clearing 20 feet, 8.5 inches. Williams is considered to be one of the best athletes of the state by the different coaches and has made a good start this season. It looks as if he will better his record of last year. He is just plain "Ligh" every time you see him. STEAMS WINS HONORS AT O. U. Ottawa Kansas. In the annual inter- class track and field meet between the areas of Ottawa University, April 10. Norris Stokes, Jr. of the Freshman class, tied with an upper class man for individual honors. Stokes, a former Pratt High School star, and three let- ter man in track, won the mile, half mile and two mile. The O. U. School paper says of him: "The work of Stokes in the distances was the outstanding feature of the afternoon. He was especially good in the mile, winning it in 1:33 without exerting himself. By careful training he has 13 Geo. C. Anderson the English language. He even sent so far as to assagt that only one or two out of the large number who had appoin'd had said anything with any sense to it. Of course the learned doctor did not know that it was nearly the concenus of opinion that HE had said nothing. Personally we don't think that any of the Lawrence people were conceited but other folks did. To further increase this already growing opinion, the young man who easyl'd to play the selection by Rubinstein tried to illittle the musical appreciation of Topeka when he attemped to explain his condition, and the audience settled themselves to hear a great treat, but somehow when it was all over, the ruscians in the assembly didn't seem to be impressed to say nothing of us lesser lights. The other numbers on the program showed real merit, and were enthusiastically received by the audience. Mr. Wright, as master of ceremonies could not be excled. Surely, if Lawrence comes again another hearty welcome awaits her. --- That foot line on the bottom of our front page is causing a number of infuiries as to what it means. Here is the secrets. It is the name of a most thrilling drama depicting the life of the Negro. The first offering will be given at the High School Auditorium on May 18th.

Before the season is over, opposing milers, half milers and two milers will find him a formidable adversary. April 10th in a dual meet at Emporia between the College of Emporia and Ottawa University. Stokes tied for first in the mile. Due to the inability of he judges to decide, it was called a tie, although Stokes breasted the tape an inch or two ahead of his opponent. The time was 4:50 3.5. The meet was held in spite of the rain that fell during the entire time. Stokes also got second in the half mile. By scoring seven points in this meet, he did most of the scoring for O. U, and needs only four more points to clinch his "O." The next meet is a dual with Baker at Ottawa. April 15th. According to dope, Stokes should win the mile and also the half. He runs in the relay too. On April 17, 1909, Joe Jeanette defeated Sam McVey in fifty rounds in Paris, France. On April 14, 1910, Sam Langford knocked out Jim Barry in 16 rounds at Vernon Cal. Our Jack, "Topka Jack" Johnson will not Jack Collier of Omaha, New York Monday night in an exhibition bout before the American Legion at Rosville, Mr. Veal, Shawnee County, says that he will allow the bout if it is within the law. In regard to the Sikh McTigue fight James McAnerney, special writer for the affair for the English publication, "Poving." remarked that: "I take no stock in Mark brotherhoods or colored races at all. I am an Irishman and am always pleased when an Irishman wins but I do like to see him win before I hear that he has won and with the best will in the world, I am unable and was unable to make McTigue a winner. In my mind, McTigue won handsomely and with comparative ease. If I am any judge he won at least 15 of the 20 and although the verdict was received with wild enthusiasm, I must confess to the suspicion that the verdict was patriotic rather than judicial.
