Every Time it Gets New Patron, Puts on Another “Company” Another taxi-cab company has been formed, It will “care for” the colored trade and is called the “Blue Cross.” Thin js but one of the many many schemes of Roy Payre of Yellow Scab fame, to fool the people and his cus- tomers, Instead of permitting the col- fore folks to ride in hix new shiny Yellow Cabs, he haa Installed a Jim ‘Crow rervice for them. The Blue fee will be utilized exclusively for the colored trade. To date Payne and his non-union lerew have been kept busy installing new name to cover the various kinds of trade he hopes to fool into riding in a scab outfit, He has the Yellow Cabs, Red Tops, Blue Cross, Black and White, and others too numerous to mention, Each one caters to a dif- ferent kind of trade. | While this outfit fs running around in cireles trying to Inveigle people in- to riding with a herum-scarum crew, pleked from the miscellaneous ans- wers to dally advertisements for driv- ers, the other tax] company {x saw- Ing wood right along, It eaters to all clasxen of trade and does not need to depend upon promiscuous aplica- lens for drivers to whom it will trust the lives of its patrons, Besides the union company does not diveriminate against colored people.

Why is the Negro so dissatisfied and above all, why is he seeking some place of sife- ty, quietude and contentment? First ef all he wants to feel that when he {x humbly aérving his God, his life ts not in jeopardy; he wants to go to a land where the substitution for the American Flag and court of justice in not the rope, the gun and the flam- ing torch. Secondly, he Wants his ehil- dren educated in proportion to his means, being a taxpayer like all oth- ers, and most of all he wants his wife and daughters removed from the om- nipresent Negro-chasing white man; Jand lasti“but not least, a fall” value for his labor, calculated by universal mathematics and not a trumped-up system to be robbed by eye-gouging, blood-sucking dealers. Why this misinterpretation of fatr- ness and justice? Why this misdirec- tion to thoxe 50 easily to fall to auch? Can any good accrue from such or are we to be regarded as of former days The answer comes in a straight from the shoulder, not There is no wonder~ ment or surprise, it is wholly be- cause the Negro mind is becoming from «lay to day more «developed, he is looking for loftier things the awak- ened spirit of progreia has aroused his activity; he doex not want to be bound by limitations when he is en- titled to freedom, hence you see not the Negro who was flogged by Simon Legree, Let me make this indelible on your minds that the Negro race is, ‘but a human flower bed having its colors of very light brown, dark brown, or copper color, and black, From this he makes his selection which greatly satisfies and most fit- tingly pleases him, You find that re- spect and goo treatment does not mean that the Negro must enter the homes of the whites and there dine with the wives am! daughters, All the Negro uska through a channel of falrnesx and intelligence, {8 the prop- er treatment and classification as ad- ministered by all fairminded, uns binsed American citizens, —Jolin N.

Holloway war granted divoree from Eta Seott Holloway in Judge Ryan's Court Monday afternoon on the ground of grons neglect of duty. ‘The court ordered the plaintiff to pay his divorced wife an alimony of $10 @ month until 1925, She was allowed to keep the family cow. The house- hold goods were divided. Mra, Hollo- way was referred to in the divorce petition as a “visionary evangelist.” Evidence showed that she pent but jvery little of her time at home, but ‘was engaged in religious meetings. ea the witness stand, Mrs, Holloway testified that soon after her marriage to Hollowcy she heard spirits rapping in the Holloway home, which caused her so much annoyance and worry she refused to live in the house, The case was hotly contested, Speaking editorially, a writer for the Horton Headlight has this to say: “The World reporter asked me to say something about a case decided this week, where a colored man, Mar- shall G. Holloway, was granted a di- vorce from his wife. I should be slow to discuss or try to particular cases in the newspapers, Holloway for 16 years has been the expert and trusted Unotype operator for the Horton Headlight, Col. Chas. H, Browne's paper. His salary {s probably the highest ever paid to a colored man in Brown County, A woman evange- list came to Horton. He married her. She wan good locking, a woman of ability, thinking of a, “career” first and a home afterwards, She ecorned to use her husband’s name on her ad- vertising. Her “ambition” took him away from his job, where he had been steady, very useful citizen; in theelty race prejudice kept him from getting another job as linotype operator,***” Then the writer goes on to tell of what in his opinion is the cause of a great deal of the divorce troubles.

The Social Service Come mission of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, in annuat session here last week, gave out a statement ex- pressing appreciation of Tuskegee In- stitute-and declaring that any intere ference with the inatitution would be a “lasting disgrace to Southern Civi- lzution.” The statement which was given wide publicity by the Associa. ted Preea, was as follows: “Inasmuch as there has come to us through reliable newspaper reporte and private sources of undoubted re- habilty information that the intere enta of the great institution for cole ored people ut Tuskegee, Ala. are se- tiously menaced by threats of organ- ized interference, . “Resolved, that’ this Commission put on record our apprecfation of the incaleulable yalue of that institution for the training of our colored fellow~ citizens, und declare our unalterable consicition that uny invasion of its tights or interference with the orler- ly pursuits of ita lawful and benevo- lent labora woult be ao calamity to the ingtitution and a lasting disgrace to our Southern civilization.” The action of the Commission of which Bishop James Cannon, Jr., ia Chairman, was called forth by the ree cent parade of the Ku Klux Klan at Tuskegee and by other efforts to In- timidate the Institute, because of its suppesed attitude in the controversey relative to the new government hos- pital for colored veterans, The statement ia considered very signifieant as representing the leader- ship of one of the greatest Southern denominations, with a membership of 2,500,000. It indicates the prevailing attitude of the beat people of the South toward Tuskegee and other Negro institutions, TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL ROW A TEST OF HARDING ADMIN. ISTRATIO SAYS N, A. A. C. P. New York, July 12+—James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A. A, C. P,, New York City, has issued a state- ment calling the contest over the Tuskegee Hospital for Colored War Veterans, a test of the Harding Ad- ministration's attitude toward Ne- groes, The statement is aa followa: “Despite the government's promise made by President Harding ta staff the Tuskegee bespital for Colored War Veterans, with eolored doctors and nurses, the Ku Klux Klan, with the apparent connivance of Colonel Stanley, have already driven away Dr. Kenney, a colored physictan of high standing, who has had to flee with his family from Tuskegee. This whole situation fs one which again testa the Administration's attitude towards colored people, as well as the government's intege ty in face of the Ku Klux Klan mob, The government could settle the whole matter by tak- ing a firm stand. The Ku Kluxers a- round qukeges are bluffing, and will carry that bluff as far as they can. Vf President Harding has a backbone the size of a toothpick, he will call that bluff, and that will be the end of the present disgraceful situation. ... “The contentions of the Alabama «hite people are untrue and absurd. They pretend to fear the menace of a colored pcrronnel in charge of the hoapital, whercus, the Tuskegee In- stitute, entirely manred and attended by Negroes with seseral hundred teachers and fifteen hundred students has never glen them, although in. their midst, grounds for the slight- ent apprehension, “Colored people throughout the U- nited Staten are awaiting to see how the United States government will met this challenge of the Ku Klux lan, INDIANS VOICE A PROTEST ‘Oklahoma City, Okla, May 9—Wm. |A.

Uncertain in Dim Light Shoot Each Other. Lubbock, Texas, June 17.—As a result of the uncertain light of dawn, a strange tragedy of errors occurred here early today. One business man is dead and a constable is believed fatally shot. Peering across a church lawn at sunrise, Constable John J. Halbort, saw Alvin Hooper, who was unusually dark, walking along a dimly lighted sidewalk with Mrs. Hooper. The constable mistook Hooper for a Negro "What are you doing with a white woman at this hour?" demanded Halbort, under the impression that Mrs. Hooper was being annoyed. Halbort was not in uniform, and Hooper assumed that an attempt was about to be made to kidnap his wife. He drew his revolver, shot the constable and hurried on with Mrs. Hooper who was by this time frantic with fright. Although probably fatally wounded, Halbort pursued Hooper across the church lawn and shot him, killing him. The Hoopers were prominent socially, and Halbort, who is 45, married, was active in county politics. This is always the case when white men want to use their colored brethren to file their crimes.

BRIDGEFORTH THE BEACON LIGHT By George Clinton Anderson We have been accused of fighting the N. A. A. C. P. Of course the accusation is untrue, for why should we cheerfully give our hard earned money each year to the organization to fight it in the end? What too many people fail to discern is that there is a vast difference between criticising a thing and fighting it. Fact is, we hold that our membership in the N. A. A. C. P., or any other organization gives us a perfect right to criticise its actions if they do not square with our idea of service. In the case of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., we have found much to criticise. Perhaps we would not have done as well had we been the active head of it but that does not mean that our present officials cannot do better than they have been. Surely we feel peeved when we hear of a meeting having been held without us having been apprised of the proposed meeting. If criticism is fighting, we are a fighter of anything that does not come up to the scratch where the public is the master to be served. It is that of old women and descent men, who have not to do not run down the character of young girls, ought to have an end put to it. Incently we witnessed the unholy pestacle of hearing a woman accuse some thirteen and fourteen year old girls of leading some young men of twenty and above astray. The young men had the cars and knew how to run them, the girls had nothing and could drive no cars. Yet in the minds of these sisters of Mrs. Grundy, the girls were to blame and are fit subjects for crucifixion on the cross of scandal. It does seem that woman would reach down and grasp her sinking sister and pull her out of the ditch, but instead, the idea seems to be for a woman to kick the falling ones further down in the ditch. Such a state of affairs is not natural and the quicker women as a whole realize it, the quicker women will receive the recognition they have been clamoring for. In the meantime, we rise here to move that all gossipers and scandal-mongers be muzzled. Do we hear a second? The Press Service of the N. A. A. C. P. contains for the week what they term the week's best editorials. One is from the Colorado Statesman and the other is from the Nation. We are reproducing the one from the Nation here: "News that a group of 'leading citizens recent President Handling's order that Negro doctors, theitian dentists, and X-ray specialists attend the Negro ex-service men to be cared for in the new federal hospital at Tuskegee, Alabama, is surprising. In another mood these Southerners bade the Negro serve himself and passed a law prohibiting the attendance of white nurses upon Negro patients. Can it be that the hysterical delicacy of the white man has been calmed by the dollar sign? The United States Treasury allotted $2,250,000 to this hospital. The physician in charge is to receive $10,000 per year, according to the Omaha Monitor, and will supervise a yearly budget of $1,250,000. The Atlanta Independent (colored) says: "*** in every matter pertaining to the hospital, the white man has had only one point in view—the economic end." He is also consumed with fear—not physical fear of shell shocked Negroes—but fear of any National Institute and physician. Location not only beautiful within the reach of all. Trades of every ch of their expenses. School opens September KA, KANSAS --- 13. Farm Crops 14 Trucking 15 Laundry 16 Domestic Science change in the status of the races, fear of the spectacle of trained Negrocreat treating 600 Negro patients. On July 3rd hooded Klansmen paraded the streets of Tuskegee as a silent threat The Montgomery Advertiser helped fan the flames by announcing, as if it were predicted, that 'there has been no overt act, no clash as yet between the races.' The National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People has telegraphed President Harding asking that troops be sent to protect the colored doctors and Major K. K. Moton, successor of the late Booker T. Washington, whose life has been threatened by molly. Some members of the Tu-kegee state have already fled north. Will the South, still deny its own responsibility for the northward exodus of self-respecting Negroes? We might add here that the Nation is a white paper published in the city of New York. They are saying, the white people that the new colored taxi company I owned and controlled by Roy Payne of Yellow Cab fame. We have 'n means of either verifying the statement or denying it, that is left for the promoter of the company to do. Neither do we attach any signi fic to the fact that the promoters fail to apply the Golden Rule, but we matching off to some white shop to paid them the money they expect to get from colored people to do printing. Of course the idea that they expect colored people to patronize them, that the thing to do would be to set a noble example by patronizing a colored print shop and advertising in a colored newspaper. However we shall not be so little as to withhold our patronage because of a little dereliction like that because we are really race servers as well as racial patronage talkers. We are sorry that our local and personal column had to suffer this week. Our reporter has resigned and consequently we had no way to go out and get them. However we hope to have another reporter some time and perhaps the Plaindealer will again be filled with little items about people in town you know, and perhaps the flames of jealousy will be fanned some more and we will be the subject of hostile looks and intimidating crowns. Secretary Aaron W. Green of the Kansas Avenue Y. M. C. A., must have been inspired to greater things when he heard all those testimonials to Dr. J. E. Moorland, retiring Senior Secretary of the Colored section of the International Committee. Mr. Green is already doing great things here in Topeka in the "Y" and we believe that his task will not seem so hard as it did before he heard of the struggles of the early workers and the heights to which some of them have risen. One editor laments the fact that personal journalism or rather personal identity in journalism is passing. Another calls his attention to the fact that in Chicago several columns are signed in the Tribune. We rise to remark that here in Kansas is a paper where even locals and personal are signed, bad English and all. So this lamenting editor is wrong after all. All he needed to do was to look aroun him. 17. Domestic Art 18 Nurse Training 19 Cooking 20 Beauty Culture LODGE DIRECTORY For Space Rate in This Column, Call $300. Knights of Pythias, N. A., S.
