This may be our last battle. We believe that it is the beginning of our final triumph. MAY 17, 1923 VIRGINIA FEB. 90 1926 STATE LIBRARY THE RICHMOND PLANET THE LEADING WHITE CITIZENS MAKE PROTEST Racial Integrity Measure Meets Strong Opposition--Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson in Limelight VOLUME XLIII, NO. 15 THE L WHITE MAK Racial Inte Strong C W. T. Jo SENATE, COMMITTEE TAKES NO DEFINITE ACTION ON BILL AIMED AT HAMPTON Charges that the doctrine of social equality is being taught at the Hampton Normal School for Negroes at Hampton, Va., were made Monday, February 15th, in a hearing before the Senate General Laws Committee on a bill providing for separation of races in public places and assemblies. The committee later, in executive session, passed by the bill until its next meeting on Friday. Foremost among those opposing the bill, were Hunter L. Ferguson, president of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company, and Frank Darling, wealthy oysterman and prominent citizen of Hampton. Both are trustees of the Hampton Normal School. WRONG IN PRINCIPLE Mr. Ferguson said that to correct a specific thing in one community by general legislation is wrong in principle. "Give us a chance," he said. "If this condition is not corrected, you will not find me appearing here two years hence opposing this piece of legislation." Those speaking in favor of the bill were Judge C. Vernon Spratley, Colonel W. S. Copeland, publisher of the Newport News Daily Press; Major H. Selater Montague, Delegate G. A. Massenburg, Harry H. Holl, John Powell, pianist, and Major E. S. Cox, ethnologist. Colonel Copeland stated that the condition was no longer a local matter, that graduates of the Hampton school were carrying to many communities of Virginia their views. Indiscriminate seating of whites and Negroes in the Hampton hall, he said, tended to break down racial pride, and gave outsiders opportunity to say Virginia is not opposed to mingling of the races in public assemblies. John Powell declared that radical Negro legislators from without the State and their white allies were attempting to break down the color line, the maintenance of which has been the salvation of both races, Virginia, he said, had been selected as the ground for a test, and the Hampton Normal School was teaching equality to its students. READ MINISTERS' STATEMENT. A statement from the Methodist ministers of Richmond, urging the appointment of a commission to study the race separation problem and to make a report to the next session of the General Assembly was read to the committee. Senator Mills, chairman, and Senator Garrett, wanted to question Dr. James Gregg, white principal of the Hampton School, regarding the doctrine taught there, but Dr. Gregg was not present. The hearing attracted the largest throng that has appeared before any committee of the Assembly at this session. Among the spectators were Dr. R. H. Blackwell, president of Randolph Macon College and Dr. C. Mitchell professor of history at the University of Richmond, and former president of the University of Delaware and the Medical College of Virginia. Chief Justice William Howard Taft, of the United States Supreme Court, is chairman of the board of visitors of the Hampton Institute. A large body of citizens met in St. Paul's Church last Saturday aft- ernoon to draw up a series of resolutions opposing House bill No. 30 and Senate bill No. 68 now before the General Assembly. House bill No. 30, which provides for segregation of persons white and persons non-white in public halls, theaters, etc. is protested against on the ground that it is alleged that Chinese Japanese and other peoples not white will be subjected to the proposed law. The resolutions further condemn the intercourse bill as unnecessary, and as attaching a stigma to the name of the people of Virginia. Other sections might construe such legislation as necessary to prevent the mixing of whites and blacks radially in Virginia, the resolutions state. It would also offend colored people of every hue and nation, the paper avers. Let proper legislation be enacted, when it is necessary, say the signers of the petition, but they do not wish Virginia to stir up ill-will by ill-advised laws. In closing, the resolutions state that the makers are desirous of preserving white racial purity and white social supremacy, but do not wish to hurt or humiliate the Negro by unnecessarily harsh legislation, and therefore they petition the General Assembly not to pass the bills now pending before it. The foreign mission board of the Southern Baptist Convention has at ready gone on record as opposing the bills, as have several ministers' conferences. The resolutions were presented to the joint session of House and Senate committees last Monday afternoon. Recently the citizens of Virginia have been greatly stirred over the race separation bill now pending before the Senate. This bill is known as House Bill number 20. It contains 38 regulation lines and sets forth as a requirement the separation of white and colored persons at public halls, theaters, opera houses, motion picture shows, places of public entertainments and public assemblages and provides a penalty for violation of the provisions thereof. At three o'clock Monday afternoon February 15, 1926, Dr. W. T. Johnson was given an opportunity to speak in behalf of the Negro, at whom the bill is directed. We are proud to say he proved himself to be an excellent defender of his race and from what we observed, and heard since, we are sure that he made many friends for our race in this important fight. We failed to have our stonographer present, hence we will have to forego the pleasure of giving you the entire speech of Dr. Johnson and content ourselves in giving you some excerpts from which you will be able to see the trend of his argument. In speaking ethnologically he said, "We do not claim to know all about the science which treats of the division of man into races and tells of their origin and relations to one another but we do claim to know FOR SALE—50 ROOM MODERN HOTEL.

Students must enter prepared to go on with immediate collegiate work. SHALL THE UNION HARTSHORN CAMPAIGN FAIL? This is a question that the colored people in Virginia, especially in Richmond, must soon answer. Last year a campaign was started to raise $100,000 among the colored people of the state. For every dollar of this amount five dollars would be given from other sources. The money is to be used for increasing buildings on the campus. The institution is crowded with students, there is impatient need of a girls dormitory. Many girls are turned away, others are forced to seek homes in the city. There are not enough class rooms for the teachers. It is a common thing this year to see a teacher and his class going up and down the halls of the reactivation building trying to find a vacant room in which to recite. Shall this condition be relieved? Shall the offer made be appreciated, five dollars for one? The campaign committee has renewed its efforts this year and another move is about to be made to give Richmond, a second chance to do what was asked last year. When the committee reconvened this year Dr. W. J. Clark President of the University reported that only $25,000 had been secured from Richmond and only $18,000 of this amount had been paid in cash, the remainder being in dividends. The committee, and the institute on is more than thankful for what has been done but the opportunity to secure this great gift must not be lost. The offer ends this year. This is the "last call" that will count to put things over. $25 0:00 more must be raised in Richmond. This could be easily done if every adult in the city would contribute one dollar to this cause. The forces are lined up and on the twenty-third of February the drive will be formally launched. Every neighborhood will be canvassed. Surely Richmond will win her spurs in this matter. Similar movements will be made in Norfolk and other cities. What if they should come out ahead of Richmond. The University benefits Richmond more than it does any other city—because it is in Richmond. Shall Richmond do less than the other cities? A few days ago the pastors of the city met Dr. Clark in conference and decided to have an educational rally day in their respective churches on the second Sunday in April or as soon thereafter as possible. This day shall be the time at which the churches now owing unpaid pledges shall pay up, and if possible, raise additional funds. The groups canvassing in the neighborhoods and the ministers working among their flocks may cause some duplication, but it is the determination of the committee not to miss a man. It is better to be approached twice and to give twice, yea three times, than that the movement should fail. The drive committee is holding meetings twice a week at 00. Clay Street, on Tuesday and Thursday at 8:00 o'clock with a view to perfecting all plans. It is inspiring to be in these meetings and to note the enthusiasm and to learn of the sacrificing effort that the members of the committee are putting forth for the success of the movement.

King is marshaling his forces for the biggest financial year yet. More than $25,000 were raised last year. In a preliminary effort last Sunday, more than $800 were raised by the men and women in a whirlwind effort to pay for granite steps for the entrance to the new building. The women led by Sister Mary E. Satterfield barely nosed out the men under Deacon S. P. Nickerson in this effort. Rev. G. W. Gaines, D. D., the popular pastor of Hood's Memorial Temple A. M. E. Zion Church is making a great success there. He delivers powerful and interesting sermons to enthusiastic audiences. The ability of this divine is generally recognized.

Mattie Harris e. ess--Only One aily Left It was a remarkable procession, one seldom seqn in this part of the country, when the funeral of Mrs. Mattle Logan and William Harris, wanded its way from W. I. Johnson Sons' funeral parlors, a block away to the Sharon Baptist Church, where Rev. R. H. Johnson was waiting to deliver the final eulogies over the dead. Two hearses, one behind the other were noticeable. It was Tuesday afternoon, 9th inst., at 3:30 o'clock when the choir sang its anthem as the mourners passed up the aisle in the church. INSTANTLY KILLED Rev. Johnson read the 23rd Psalm, J. M. Dickey sang "I Want to See Jesus, Don't You." Prayer was offered by Rev. S. C. Burrell, D. D., who recently barely escaped with his life in an automobile accident. Mrs. Mattle Logan was instantly killed, Wednesday, February 3rd at about 4:30 P. M. and William Harris lasted until Sunday, 7th inst., at 4 P. M. The former was a resident of New York City and was a member of St. Paul Baptist Church. She was a widow. The latter had four children and two step children. THOSE BRUISED BODIES. "O, for a Faith that Will Not Shrink," was sung. Rev. Johnson offered a powerful sermon. He referred to the broken, bruised and mangled remains that paid for the folly and direct recklessness* He exerted them to take away all feeling of vindictiveness and throw the mantle of charity over those responsible for the affliction. Rev. J. W. Dudley was invited to the rostrum. The text was from Philippians 4th chapter, 19th verse. ONE LEFT Only one direct member of the family is left.

Back in 1887 John Wallace drifted into Vancouver, B.C. He had a few hundred dollars—considerable money in those days—and with this started speculating in land. "It wasn't long before my speculations started reaping a good profit," declared the aged man beween cries of wuxtra, wuxtra. "I began to be looked upon as one of the most promising young men in Vancouver. "For 40 years I kept up this mad buying and selling of land. At the end of that time I had about ten million—most of it in real estate. Then came the crash. Property values went flat. Piece by piece I disposed of my land to cover up the speculations."

MRS. HAYES DIES AT MARION. MARION VA., —Mrs. B. E. Hayes sudden death here was a great shock. For many years she had been a member of the First Baptist Church, having professed faith in Christ under the pastorate of Rev. Samuel Cyrus, Sr. He administered the rite of baptism to her more than 35 years ago. Her death was very shocking On Friday night, January 29 she attended an entertainment at the Baptist Church and participated in a duet, after which she remained some time, eating ice cream and other good things served by the ladies of the church. After enjoying herself she returned to the home of Rev. W. H. Michel, with whom she made her home and about 11 o'clock she retired for the night. She talked from her room awhile to Rev. Mitchell and wife, who slept upstairs. Mrs Hayes was a very efficient woman. She was born in South Fork, Smyth County, Va., in which she lived practically all of her life. She spent about one year in Cranford, N. J. some few years ago. She had been a citizen of Marlon from girlhood. She taught public school several years during early life, at Bradford, Va., at which time she became acquainted with Mr. Robert Hayes and they were famously united in marriage. He long since preceded her to the grave. To this union was born one son, who perhaps survives his mother. She was a useful woman in church and Sunday School. She was honored years ago as superintendent of the Sunday School of this place and at one time teacher of the same school. She was clerk of the church at one time, also and filled all of these positions with credit to herself and church. But she is no more. Rev. W. H. Mitchell arose as usual on Saturday TOBEY AND TYKE morning, January 30, came down stairs and called to Sister Hayes, but no answer came. He therefore made his way to her bed, where she slept with his ten year old daughter Julia Mitchell. He found Sister Hayes had breathed her last. To Rev. Mitchell and family, as well as the community in which she was held in high esteem, her death was a great shock. The funeral was conducted Monday, February 1, 1926 at 3 P. M., from the Baptist Church by her pastor, Rev. H. L. Christmas, assisted by Rev. T. C. Fraser, pastor of the M. E. Church, Marion. Va.; Rev. Lambert, pastor of A. M. E. Zon; Rev. G. W. Lomans, of Challowie Va.; Rev. Anderson Davis, presiding elder of M. E. Church; Licentiate William Hall, of New River, Va The church was crowded long before the hour of the funeral and sorrowing friends were present to pay their respect and honor to their friend, Sister B. E. Hayes. The beautiful floral designs well revealed the many close and admiring friends of the deceased. The pallbearers weres William Sharpe, Warren Johnson, George Finley, Charlie Goble, Henry Hughes, Chancy Cooley. Our friends are remembering us and the time will come when we can remember them.

Jordan, Chief of Police has shown a most commendable interest in locating persons of our race, whose whereabouts are desired by their friends and relatives in other localities.

Stop Night Cough This New Way Quick Relief Thru Simple Treatment Thousands who have been unable to sleep nights due to irritating night coughing can now obtain practically instant relief and sleep soundly the very first night—through a simple but wonderfully effective treatment. This treatment is based on the prescription known by Dr. King's New Discovery for Cough. You take just one teaspoonful at bedtime and hold it in your throat for 15 or 20 seconds before swallowing it. The prescription has a double action. It not only soothes and heals soreness and irritation, but it also promotes pungent and congestion which are the causes of night coughing. So with the throat closed and cleared, coughing stops quickly, you sleep undisturbed, and the entire cough condition soon disappears. Dr. King's New Discovery is for coughs, chest colds, sore throat, hoarseness, bronchitis, spasmodic cough, etc. Fine for children as well as grown-ups—no harmful drugs. Economical, too, as the dose is only one teaspoonful. At all good druggists. Ask for DR.KING'S NEW DISCOVERY FOR COUGHS Are Your Muscles Sore?

After waitin thirteen years and have not suffered from the horrible disease, Gravel, I desire to make a statement to L. J. Hayden. Thirteen years ago twelve leading physicians of my city treated me for Kidney trouble and gravel without the desired benefit. These doctors advised me to be operated or as that was the only chance for me I was addressed to go and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try to force being operated on. I did so, and in twenty four hours after using his medicines I passed at least a half dozen gravel, some as big as a large sea. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel. I highly recommend to all suffering humanity. IMPROVEMENT NOTED AT ONCE. Mr. L. J. Hayden. 224 West Broad Street. Richmond, Va I received your treatment O.

I do not suffer with my pains as I used to and my appetite is just fine and I sleep much better every night and feel fine monials from the Secretary of War and Army Officers of high rank and reputation are set forth in no uncertain terms. The following ringing words of Major General Boll, addressed to the famous "Buffaloes", the 367th Regiment, are typical of the high regard and respect of American and European officers for our colored troops. Every private in this regiment and most of the officers were Negroes. The General said: "This is the best disciplined and best drilled and best spirited regiment that has been under my command at this cantonment. I predicted last fall that Colonel Moss would have the best regiment stationed here and you men have made my prediction come true. I would lead you in battle against any army in the world with every confidence in the outcome".
