THE RICHMOND PLANET LIBERIANS STOP SLAVE TRAFFIC-Report 18th Meet Of Negro Organization Society In Williamsburg DePriest Retains Seat In Congress VOLUME XLVII. Number 52 LIBER 18th Me DePr U. S. Commission Urged Abolishment Nashville, Tennessee.—October 29 1930. All slaves have been declared free in Liberia, according to a cable received by Dr. Charles S. Johnson of Fisk University from the League of Nations by way of the New York Times. When Dr. Charles S. Johnson returned to the Fisk University campus after an absence of nine months in Liberia where he was a member of an international commission, he was pledged to support a statement for publication by the State Department in Washington until the Department had had time to make a full report from the findings. For years there had been rumors in international circles that there was actual slavery in Liberia. The government asked the League of Nations to appoint a commission that would make report of actual findings. The commission was composed of Ex-president Arthur Barelay of Liberia, appointed by the Liberian government; Dr. Charles S. Johnson of Fisk University, appointed by President Gouvernier; Cuthbert of Government of Great Britain, appointed by the League. Dr. Christy had spent forty years in Africa at the head of medical expeditions and is at present a resident of England. This commission was given most adequate power to act. In 1923 a special act of the Liberian government had been passed to give a commission of inquiry power to summon witnesses and compel attendance upon hearings. This act was invoked to give the present League commission power to summon any government officials, America-Liberian residents, Europeans, natives, planters to hearings. The report of these findings was completed there. One copy was kept in Liberia, one sent to America and one to the League. All were to study report carefully before action was taken; hence the pledge to give out no information. By reason of distance, the American report was the last delivered and studied. Before the State Department had had time to receive and study the report, the Liberian government had taken action. Liberia issued a decree declaring free all its domestic slaves and abolishing the system of pawning natives as security and abolishing rored embarkation of natives in connection with labor contracts. This decree, stepping ahead of the actual findings, sent out by the League and reaching The New York Times and several newspapers two days later. The annual admission that the commission did find slavery and did recommend its abolishment. Dr. Johnson announced this thrilling bit of current history which he had so effective a part in making at a reception given him by the Fisk faculty Monday evening, October 27. NATIONAL IDEAL AND RICHMOND BENEFICIAL CLUBS CONSOLIDATE The National Ideal Society has shown a wonderful spirit of Fraternism in agreeing to take over the members of the Richmond Industrial Club, or Society, and pay their past due death claims, and certain other debts, providing however, that they turn over to the Ideal Society at least a certain number of members. These people have decided to come under the protection of the Ideal Society, and the Industrial Society failed to measure up to the agreement, by not having the required number of members, yet all who came joined the Ideal Society, and are well pleased. The achievements of the Ideal Society since its establishments have been wonderful. Among the unusual accomplishments, is the business-like way it acquired its home, without any noise or heavy taxation. Also the prompt way in which it pays its obligations. The most outstanding feature of the Order is the valuable service it renders to its wives, and the valuable of its sick and death claims, therefore many may be joining the Organization. Mr. A. W. Holmes, founder of the Organization will speak to a large gathering at an Ideal meeting Sunday Nov. 2nd, Norfolk, Va. at the Second Calvary Bantist Church, thence to Phila, and New York. Pioneer Negro Librarian To Speak At Fisk University's Library Dedication THOMAS F. BLUE Many Notables To Speak During Education Week Plans for the program on Negro education which will be broadcast during American Education Week have just been completed, according to an announcement made by the U. S. Office of Education. The program will consist of short addresses interspersed with music. Honorable Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the Interior, will deliver the major address, President John W. Davis of West Virginia State College will also speak. President Davis is chairman of the executive committee of the Association of Negro Land Count Colleges, and is a former president of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools. He is also a recent recipient of the Harmon award of distinguished service in the field of education. The third address will be given by Dr. Ambrose Caliper, Specialist in Negro Education, of the U. S. Office of Education. President Mordecai W. Johnson, of Howard University will be master of ceremonies. The music for the program will be rendered by the Hampton Institute Choir, which recently, under the direction of Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, made a tour of important cities in England and the Continent, where they received the acclaim of some of the leading musical critics. They have just returned to America, and it is believed that this will be their first broadcasting engagement. It is understood that those who are sponsoring the program feel that the American public will welcome this opportunity to hear this musical organization which has distinguished itself both at home and abroad, and which has done so much to interpret the musical spirit of the Negro, in classical renditions as well as Negro spirituals. The program will be broadcast on Wednesday, November 12, from 5 to 5:30 Company's netfork of stations, and it is expected that millions of persons scattered throughout the Nation will listen in. Schools, colleges, clubs, churches, and various civic organizations are joining in the observance of American Education Week, and are planning special programs bearing on Negro education. The office of Education has sent to all Negro high schools, colleges and academies letters which contain suggestions on the observance of the Week. The following, are some of the suggestions which the letter contains: (1) That all organizations in the community join with the school fostering an educational program; (2) that the school fosters the community and especially the ministers, lend their services by making addresses on the subject of education; (3) that special emphasis be placed on some of the acute problems in connection with the education of the Negro, such as more equitable support; better pay and preparation of teachers; improvement of facilities; proner educational and vocational guidance of students; the problem of drop-outs Nashville, Tennessee, October 31, 1330.—Thomas F. Blue, foremost librarian today and founder of the first Negro public library in the world, will be one of the principal speakers on the Negro Library Con- program in connection with the dedication of the new library building at Fisk-University November 20th to 23rd. On the sixth of November Louisville will celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the establishment of its colored branch library system which was organized in 1905 by Mr. Blue and Mrs. Rachel Harris. An impressive program, to which the Mayor of Louisville as well as many prominent citizens will contribute, promises to memorialize this important milestone city. It will be a fitting abutitute to a quarter of a century of constructive work by these two librarians, Mr. Blue and Mrs. Harris. Mr. Blue has figured prominently in professional activities among librarians for some time. After graduating from Hampton Institute, Mr. Blue entered into Y. M. C. A. work until the appropriation for a Carnegie library was announced. In 1905, the Western Colored Branch of the Louisville Public Library issued its first book to a reader and thus inaugurated public library service to Negroes. Under Mr. Blue's administration the library grew in popularity so rapidly that it was soon necessary to build a second branch to meet the demand for service. Today, there are three colored branches in Louisville, fifteen classroom libraries and nearly one hundred collections to deposit in various parts of the city and county. All of the work is under Mr. Blue's direction and represents the- fullest library service given to Negroes in any city in the country. Mr. Blue has played a prominent part in the associations and conferences of librarians. As a member of the American Library Association he has contributed frequently on professional topics. At the Hampton conference in 1917 he was one of the chief speakers at the library meeting. Because of his identification with the whole library development program, Mr. Blue was asked to become a member of the Committee sponsoring the Negro Library Conference at Fisk University along with Miss Tommie Dora Barker, Regional Field Agent for the South of the American Library Association, Miss Florence R. Curtis, Director of the Hampton Library School, Miss Ernestine Rose of the New York Public Library, Miss Charlotte Templeton, President of the Southeastern Library Association and Louis Shores, Librarian of risk University. Mr. Blue will act as chairman of the Negro Literature Friday evening November 21st when Arthur A. Schomburg and Monroe N. Work will contribute papers on Negro bibliography. On Saturday morning Mr. Blue will meet to the Public Library meeting a paper on "Arousing Community, Interest". Advance indications are that a representative gathering of librarians from all over the country will be present for the Conference and dedication, and Fisk University is preparing to play host to them in grand style. Certain it is that these librarians will see one of the most impressive library structures in the country and hear some highly worth while professional discussions of their daily problems. and the employment open to those who leave school; adult, part-time, and extension education. Each school and community was advised to adapt the suggested program to suit its peculiar needs. From information coming to the U. S. Office of Education it is indicated that the cooperation in observing American Education Week, and especially as it concerns the Negro, will be wide spread. The time of the other programs during the week, which are being sponsored by the National Education Association is as follows: Tuesday, November 11, 4:30 to 5 P. M.; and Thursday, November 13, 3:30 to 4 P. M.; Friday, November 14, 11 to 11:30 P. M.; and Saturday, November 15, 10 to 10:30 A. M. The program on Negro education will be broadcast on Wednesday, November 12, from 5 to 5:30 P. M. All time periods specified are Eastern Standard Time. Negro Nurses For Negro School,1931 Program According to reports coming from the office or Wm. Kandolp Johnson, Executive Secretary of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia, next week, beginning Wednesday, November 12, and commencing the 13th anniversary of the society and celebrate its 18th Birthday at Old Historical Wilmington. It is expected that the largest delegation in the history of the Society will attend. The Negro Organization Society was founded eighteen years ago by Dr. R. R. Moton, the late Marian Allen Washington, Dr. M. E. Davis, of Portsmouth; Dr. L. L. Downing, of Roanoke, and Lawyer T. C. Walker and one or two others interested in Negro welfare. The Society took as its project, "Better Schools, Better Health, Better Homes and Better Farms" for Negroes throughout the State of Virginia. Through the efforts of this society thousands of dollars have been raised for educational purposes. I co-ordinated State and United States Health Departments the message of "Better Health" has been left at the door of every rural family in Virginia. Negroes have been encouraged and inspired a long way on the improvement of their homes and farms. Great emphasis is being laid upon health just now and the Society is undertaking an expansive program of putting on Negro nurses in every county in Virginia for the benefit of Negro boys and girls. This program promises to get under way early in the New Year. Already there is a nurse working in five counties in the Tidewater section training mid-wives and helping in homes where she is needed where a new-born baby has arrived. By the combined forces or the State Department of Health, The Rosenwald Fund and the Negro Organization, this nurse is being supported. The school nurses will be carried the same way. The Organization Society is appealing to men and women everywhere to help in this project, in order that we may carry on in a larger and greater way the work so well be-come by the founders. Annual memberships, Individuals, $1.00; School Leagues and Social Clubs, $2.00; Sunday Schools, $3.00; Churches, Fraternal Organizations, County-wide Leagues, $5.00. A large number of these, according to Mr. Johnson, the Society has on its roster. It is reported that he membership of every organization in the state, church, fraternal, business will be sought for membership. The object of the Organization Society is democratic, in that it seeks to improve conditions among all the people. Fees will be received at the Office of the Executive Secretary, 518 1-2 N. Fourth Street, and your presence is solicited to be with the Society when it celebrates its 18th Anniversary. Among its noted speakers will be the Mayor of Williamsburg, the Rev. L. W. Wales, President J. Alvin Russell, of St. Paul's Church; Dr. J. A. C. Chandler, President of William and Mary College; Mr. W. D. Gresham, Supervisor of Negro Education; Dr. J. M. Gandy, President Virginia State College; Hon. Frank Bane, Commissioner of Public Welfare, and Dr. R. M. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute. Dr. J. H. Blackwell, well known physician of Richmond, will make one of the main talks on health problems of Richmond and surrounding communities. Other outstanding physicians are on program, including Dr. M. E. Norris, of Kilmarnock, Va. CHAUFFEURS SERVICE CLUB CELEBRATE FOURTH ANNIVERSARY. The Chaufeurs' Service Club, of this city, held their fourth anniversary at the Moore Street Baptist Church, Sunday, Nov. 2, at 8:15 I.M. F. Mr. Gordon B. Hancock, pastor and speaker of the evening, delivered a masterly address on the subject: "The Opportunities of Extremity." Va.Seminary Plead The Parable Of The Cup And Saucer And Man In The Moon WILLIAM RANDOLPH JOHNSON Omega Psi Phi To Stage Essay Contest National Negro Achievement Week as sponsored by the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity will begin next Sunday and the entire week over the country ceebrations will be held. Gigantic programs have been arranged for the 84 chapters comprising the Greek letter order with a view to not only helping other groups understand the good the Negro has been in the building of our great country, but to inform the youth of our race as to the accomplishments of their sires. Several radio programs have been arranged for and Denver, New York, Baltimore, Atlanta, Chicago and one or two other places will vie as to the best programs to be staged from Negro composers and writers. Essay Contest For Prizes Undergraduate and high school students are working hard on essays for the annual contests along this line. Six prizes in cash aggregating $150 will be given for the best Essays on some phase of Negro life. In last years contest over four hundred essays were turned in from 171 schools over the country with 27 states heard from. The highest honor went to Miss Olivia S. Clarke, a student at Lynchburg College whose engagement incidently was announced a few days ago to Charles Satchchell Morris, Jr. orator and educator. Two of the prizes went to students at Johnson's C. Smith's University in North Carolina, the first time in the history that any school has held this honor. William Taylor, a 13 year old student in Brooklyn, N. Y. won a prize in the High School division. Million To Be Reached Based on plans, attorney Linwood G. Koger, National Director, estimated that fully twenty million will be reached. "The nine radio programs will touch the most of these" he added. Tracts and folders and our programs in the schools will be the next highest number and since the ministers in the south especially are going to speak along this line, the masses will be reached in this fashion there. Our people are reading the papers as never before and since many of the papers will carry the items and special achievement features the prophecy made is not such an exaggeration after all. The opening selection was sung by Moore Street Junior chair; devotional by Mr. J. M. Green, chaplain of the club. The welcome address was delivered by Mr. Thomas Pleasants, deacon of Moore Street Church; response by Mr. Thos. Fulton. A selection was then very beautifully rendered by the Silver Bell Quartet. Next on the program was a solo by Mr. Lewis Goode, a recitation by Mrs. Louise T. Dean, the very accomplished dramatist. Next was a solo by Mr. Benjamin F. Dean, accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Louise T. Dean. The speaker of the evening was then presented by Mr. R. Epps, Master of Ceremonies. Dr. Hancock, who spoke very briefly, brought out some very interesting points in his short address, Once upon a time there was a cup that ran over and the saucer got the surplus, and there was enough for both, and to spare. And there came a mighty famine in the land and the cup filled slowly and finally it did not fill at all, and the saucer became very dry. Atter a long time, when much waiting had been done and the saucer was dry unto cracking, it addressed the cup and it spake thus: "I know that there be a famine in the land and that you are not flowing over with plenty. Indeed when you are not overflowing I am the first to feel it. Remember, I pray thee, that when you are not full, I am completely empty and altogether dry, and must remain despoiled even though you be but an inch of an inch from the top." And the cup remembered, and although it was but little more than half-rull itself, it had compassion on the saucer and tilted itself and both were saved until the famine was past. It happened once that the dwellers upon the earth decided to see if there were really a man in the moon. The way to tell was to send up at one time a great shout from all the inhabitants of the earth. Such an outy would be so loud that if there were really a man in the moon he would turn his head to see what was all the stir. The day was set and the hour and the minute and the second. The moment set for the universal din, found all the inhabitants of the earth gathered beneath the sky waiting to join in in the moon-shaking shout. But just as the moment arml will not shout myself, I will listen to riven an old lady said to herself, "I see how it sounds to hear the whole world yelling at once." An old man said the same to himself, and a middle aged woman said the same to herself, and a boy, and a little girl and everyone where said to himself, "I will not hollow, I will see how it sounds to hollow the others." It is am I to pass that the instant I bursting the drums of the ears of the man in the moon, became the moment of the world's profoundest silence. Men could hear a pir fall. Not even the babies cried. And all because while all wanted the shouting, each waited for the others to do it. The speaker at the Seminary Victory Drive, November 26, the day before Thanksgiving will be Attorney E, Washington Rhodes of Philadelphia, U. S. District Attorney and Editor of the Philadelphia Tribune. We appreciate the present difficulties involved in raising money among the churches, and how hard-pressed a great number of persons find themselves, but the cause of the Seminary is related to you as the saucer is to the cup. Please do not postpone assistance until you are financially "full". Tilt the cup before Thanksgiving. All of us who take pride in Negro achievement wish to see this institution which the race has brought, by its own strength, through half a century, reinforce its foundation and build for the aces. Then, be it far from anyone of us to leave the task to "others". Let us "all pull out," and all pull together," and let us, all pull now. Thereafter, to be another parable showing that people seldom do what they put off for some later day, but the sun is coming and I must spend seven dollars of hard money to go after some other money which the brethren know they can spare, but will not send until I arrive and we talk it over. If they would send it through the mail, we could use the seven dollars to paint the Dean's office. telling his hearers that the average Negro was twenty-five years behind the time of that if the 72 stockholders alone of the Lawntoe Shoe Co. had bought their shoes from the company in which they were stockholders that the company would have lived; that the time had come for men to prize their jobs; the man who prizes his job will live, the man that does not will die. The working man is the key to the whole solution of our problems; he is the salvation of the race. Offertory by Mrs. Jas. Wood and Mr. Geo. Winston, after which another unique selection was rendered by the Silver Bell Quartet, a selection by the Junior choir, after which the benediction was announced by Dr. Hancock. Scores Easy Victory Over Democratic Foe BY PLANET STAFF WRITE7 Oscar DePriest, lone Negro Representative in Congress from the First Congressional District of the State of Illinois was returned victor in last Tuesday's election over his white democratic opponent by a majority of more than seven thousand votes. Despite the fact that Mrs. Suth Hanna McCormick running for U. S. Senator from Illinois was defeated and that William Hale (Big Bill) Thompson, Major of Chicago supported the democratic opponent of Mrs. McCormick, DePriest's supporters gave him a substantial majority. Voting was heavy in DePriest's district due to the interest aroused by the action of Major Thompson, in supporting the democratic nominee for U. S. Senator, and also because of the bold stand by DePriest that he was at a loss to understand just how a Negro could vote for a Democrat. This attitude of DePriest brought to his support many voters who probably would have voted otherwise or would have not voted at all. Many telegrams of congregulation were received by DePriest following his reelection for another two year term in congress. Honorable George W. Blackwell, a former Richmond was reelected as a member of the General Assembly of the State of Illinois. He represents the city of Chicago. Many will remember attorney Blackwell as the son of Professor James H. Blackwell, and a brother of Dr. J. H. Blackwell, Jr., who is a prominent physician on the Southside. ALL THE STARCH TAKEN OUT OF THE BLACK SHIRTS Atanta, Ga., Oct.-All the starch was taken out of the "black shirt" here last week when Judge G. H. Howard refused to charter the organization and enjoined it from operating in this state. The decision was handed down after an exhaustive public hearing taking nearly a week in which Fulton county and the State of Georgia, as represented by Solicitor General John A. Boykin, stoutly resisted the issuance of a charter to the organization on the groun dthit it was a menace to the rights of Negroes and to the peace of the community. So vigorous and convincing was the Solicitor's attack, through scores of witnesses, that there was little doubt from the first that the petitioners for charter were doomed to defeat. Figuratively speaking, he took their shirts off one by one, turned them wrong side out, exhibited all their unsightly rents and seams, and then tore them to shreds. Intrigue, internal dissession, mutual distrust, quarrels about the money, double crossing one another, bitter denunciations back and forth between the leaders and ultimately their break in warring ractions—such the sorry spectacle exhibited to the public day after day as the many witnesses were heard. The spectators could not fail to realize more keenly than ever that a house built on the sands of falsehood, hate, and injustice is bound sooner or later to fall. In this case the collapse came with dramatic prompts. The first meeting was held on July 2, and for a few weeks the organization held the limelight in a series of big meetings that excited and terrorized the whole community. Yet with its great crowds and flamboyant claims, it enrolled altogether only 1,700 members, of whom only 1,034 paid the one dollar fee. The total receipts to September 19 were only $2,380, with the expenses considerably greater. Though repeated efforts to displace Negro workers were reported, the evidence revealed only a single case of success. Thus the "black shirts" of the American Fascist join the "night shirts" of the Klu Kux Klan in the futility and oblivion to which all such movements are ultimately doomed. There still remains the group chartered in Florida as the American Fascist, Order of Black Shirts" but it also was enjoined from operating in Georgia. It has made no announcement as to its plans, but nobody seems to be taking it seriously. THE PANET DITOP ITORIAL DITORIALS What Was Expected? What Was Expected? By JOE SIMPSON There is at present considerable discussion in Richmond anew the address recently delivered here by Dr. Robert Russa Moton, before a segregated audience of whites and Negroes. Some Negroes here are butterly disappointed because the speaker did not announce the white people in the viiest terms for the conditions obtaining in the south. Sad but true, we find that the keenest disappointment is evidenced by those people who by their cultural advantages and educational environments should know better. as is present considerate discussion in Richard recently delivered here by Dr. Robert R. Regregated audience of whites and Negroes, we butterly disappointed because the speaker, white people in the viest terms for the country south. Sad but true, we find that the key is evidenced by those people who by their and educational environments should know writer said recently, the Negro is reluctant to access to this we will attempt to place before us. Whether or not the Negro will profit by not attempt to say. Nevertheless, here we live as a race do not think, fully sixty per cent of real hard thinking, were we not we disgusted, or even surprised at the things my other Negro in a like position. We darned who are raising the greatest howl were they have been afraid to have said all the laws of reason to back up our trade Moton a leader? The white man. If he no to make him a leader he would still be a man. Why? Because the Negro will not follow consider him a leader until he first has to the white man, and the day and hour that the approval he automatically ceases to be a man hogged in some position by the white man by virtue of his position and standing to honor his daily bread. Do you expect the war in his house that he knows is taking the terror and giving it to you? He will however this services and commend his acts of charity to you no more than the left-overs and able. A king would be more than a fool if he man whom he knew was undermining his king is the first law of nature, he who disregard second place we expect too much of the white him too much of the blame for ourills alone are to be held responsible. We cone white han in former days, not in the distant others of almost every right known to man of their honor and were not even granted a justice of the Supreme Court went so Negro had no rights that the white man we this condition does not obtain today, the tenant is a free man, he is paid annually in two billion dollars, he is at liberty to spee however he pleases, yet he spends most of the white man while the merchants and others want of his trade. Can we blame the whitenatically no. The white man holds no gun to patronize his jim-crow theatres, his boy is jim-crow shoe and dry goods stores, nor new enterprises, but we patronize them, we can man for accepting our money in view of our, for money is power—the power that rules nation of men, or individual for that man? Just not expect the white man to set up a racial or outer-racial, that will work for addition of those policies which the average child to the continued progress and purity of his own race by opening up an avenue immediately enter and take from him some of hisoids near and dear to him. These bodies fod will is founded, and being constructed on the Negro will not now, nor will he ever be, the Negro therefore, is interested in his own middle and expect the white man to work in an interest in, and work out his own destiny leaders are born not made, and it is an indiscriminate Negro race is ever brought out of the abyss finds itself, it will inevitably be led by a person who may meet death in attempting to but the banner will not be allowed to fall, hand who has been inspired by his spirit baggar and carry it through to victory. Old look for some great personage to come and deliver them. We are invariably looking ages do not make leaders, they are only real qualities of the products which come out brought out in bold relief. A college edu an individual, it only brings out that white MEMBER. The white man in the south wilal of the segregation or jim-crow laws, is UTTERLY VOID OF REASON, or IS-INFORMED. As one writer said recently, the Negro is reluctant to face facts, but regardless to this we will attempt to place before the reader a few codd facts. Wheher or not the Negro will profit by them we can not and will not attempt to say. Nevertheless, here goes: In the first place we as a race do not think, fully sixty per cent of us being incapable of real hard thinking, were we not we would not be indignant, disgusted, or even surprised at the things said by Dr. Moton or any other Negro in a like position. We dare say that if those Negroes who are raising the greatest howl were in Moton's position they would have been afraid to have said as much as he said. We have all the laws of reason to back up our contention. Who made Moton a leader? The white man. If he had waited for the Negro to make him a leader he would still be at Jezerville on the farm. Why? Because the Negro will not follow any Negro nor will he consider him a leader until he first has the stamp of approval of the white man, and the day and hour that he receives this stamp of approval he automatically ceases to be a Negro leader; he is soon hog-used in some position by the white man in which he is forced by virtue of his position and standing to look to the white man or his daily bread. Do you expect the white man to keep a man in his house that he knows is taking the furniture from his parlor and giving it to you? He will however, remain satisfied with his services and commend his acts of charity as long as he hands out to you no more than the left-overs and the crumbs from his table. A king would be more than a fool if he retained as his aide a man whom he knew was undermining his kingdom. Self preservation is the first law of nature, he who disregards it is a fool. In the second place we expect too much of the white man, and place upon him too much of the blame for our ills for many of which we alone are to be held responsible. We concede the fact that the white han in former days, not in the distant past, robbed our forefathers of almost every right known to man, they were robbed even of their honor and were not even granted personal privacy; even a justice of the Supreme Court went so far as to rule that "A Negro had no rights that the white man was bound to respect." This condition does not obtain today, the Negro to a certain extent is a free man, he is paid annually in wages a sum exceeding two billion dollars, he is at liberty to spend it where, when and however he pleases, yet he spends most of this vast sum with the white man while the merchants and others of his own race fail for want of his trade. Can we blame the white man for this? Emphatically no. The white man holds no gun in our backs forcing us to patronize his jim-crow theatres, his back-door restaurants, his jim-crow shoe and dry goods stores, nor any other of his jim-crow enterprises, but we patronize them, we can not blame the white man for accepting our money in view of our insistence that he do so, for money is power—the power that rules the world. What race or nation of men, or individual for that matter, would refuse power? We must not expect the white man to set up any kind of a body, inter-racial or outer-racial, that will work for the destruction or abolition of those policies which the average white man considers vital to the continued progress and purity of the white race. He feels that by accepting us as equals he would jeopardize the future of his own race by opening up an avenue by which we would ultimately enter and take from him some of those things which he holds near and dear to him. These bodies foster good will, but that good will is founded, and being constructed on a plan that the average Negro will not now, nor will he ever be, prone to accept. If the Negro therefore, is interested in his own destiny he will not sit idle and expect the white man to work it out for him he will take an interest in, and work out his own destiny. Real leaders are born not made, and it is an indisputable fact that if the Negro race is ever brought out of he abyss of lethargy in which it, finds itself, it will inevitably be led by some radical Negro leader who may meet death in attempting to put over his programme but the banner will not be allowed to fall, there will be some one at hand who has been inspired by his spirit to take hold of the falling banner and carry it through to victory. Negroes like the Jews of old look for some great personage to come in pomp and splendor and deliver them. We are invariably looking to the colleges, but colleges do not make leaders, they are only refineries where the latent qualities of the products which come under their influence are brought out in bold relief. A college education puts nothing into an individual, it only brings out that which is already within. REMEMBER. The white man in the south will never work for the repeal of the segregation or jim-crow laws, and he who THINKS so is UTTERLY VOID OF REASON, or he has been SADLY MIS-INFORMED. DR. HANCOCK PREACHERS ers. One was wise and built upon a FORCEFUL SERMON SUNDAY Dr. Hancock who is the honored Pastor of Moore St. Baptist Church is doing great work. The sracious Auditorium was filled to its caravity. He used as his subject, "The Great Text". His text was found in Matthew, 7th Chapter, 2nd verse, which reads, "the rain decended and the floods came and the winds blew, and beat upon that house." Dr. Hancock said in part: If all the half done things were completed, this earth would be a cavalise of ineffable bliss. If all those who died as a result of half done hinges, should come forth from their grave, there would stand in solemn array, a great company from the four corners of the earth. One of the great sins of the present world is the sin of half doing imimportant things. We do not need to dream of a Utopia like Moore's, or like Bacon's New Atlantic or Campanella's City of he Sun, if we could just get men to do their work right in the world, there would rise a tide of blessedness that should reach unto the uttermost parts of the earth, but Alas. Jesus left one world's most solemn warnings against the evil of half done things.

Some Negroed because the speaker did not giver best terms for the conditions close, we find that the keenest disapp people who by their cultural admonitions should know better. The Negro is reluctant to face facts, attempt to place before the reader a Negro will profit by them we can nevertheless, here goes: In the think, fully sixty per cent of us being, were we not we would not be surprised at the things said by Dr. Luke position. We dare say that if the greatest howl were in Moton's afraid to have said as much as he reason to back up our contention. The white man.

One was wise and built upon a rock, although rock building is necessarily slow and tedious. It takes great digging, and digging is a costly part of building. It takes self-effacemen, for when one digs he is lost to the sight of the world. People so often overlook the diggers, although they are the salvation of the world. The diggers must often deny themselves of the things of life today demands and must think more of tomorrow. Long before the diggers have found he rock, the other builder is making a show and the passing throngs are smiling their approval and encouragement. The diggers then set themselves to a thankless and unpopular task. Just whether we are going to build a cabin or a skyscraper will determine whether or not we will dig. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BUILD A SKY SCRAPER ON A LOG CABIN FOUNDATION. If this truth could be got over to mankind, the Kingdom of God would come speedily. Both of these builders finally erected beautiful structures with arches and frescoes and gorgeous embellishments. Ionic, Doric or Corinthian. Even the digger finally comes out in sight and people laugh that after all his digging his building is no finer than the one that was finished long ago.

The consolidation of the street banks was one of the best and elements which has ever occurred in the among Negroes which ought to be that many leaders have made shipwreath in them and many Negro institution did not let this be an excuse.

Would this Negro restaurant have been this mean pressure from the white people of that town? The writer remembers when the Times-Dispatch was two different papers—The McNichol Times and the McNichol Dispatch, but they became one. The same thing was true with the News Leader. The chain store movement is a warning that independent merchants in various locations must cooperate—hence comes the Quality Service movement. Some one may lose a job when consolation takes place, but it is better for one man to perish than for a whole bank or business to fail. The consumer is benefited by a well regulated monopoly which oversees the law laborers that may lose a job. The consolation of the St. Luke and the Second Street Banks was one of the best and greatest Negro business movements which has ever occurred in McNichol. This is an example among Negroes which ought to be honored. It is true that many leaders have made shipwreck of confidence imposed in them and many Negro institutions have raned, but we snoound not let this be an excuse. More institutions have raned among the white people, white leaders even curcummen, have deceived the people. A famous trial is going on in this respect even as we now write, but white people are sum cooperating, individual business has raned also. Does that justify an individuals from entering into business because one individual here and there has raned? The failure of one corporation among Negroes ought not kill the idea of Negro corporation. The colonists of America suffered and stood together before they could have an Independent United States. The writer sometimes thinks that a little more mean pressure in Richmond and some other cities would prove a blessing to Negro business. If the white people would refuse to sell Negroes shoes, we would then have and maintain a decent store. The same is true of all like things. The writer was motoring through a certain city in North Carolina. His wife went into a white restaurant to buy two ham sandwiches. There were a plenty of them on the counter, but the white waiter informed her that he did not have any to sell, but that if she would walk one block down the hill, she would find a place. One block down the hill was a Negro sertaurant, we found sandwiches. Woud this Negro restaurant have been able to survive without this mean pressure from the white restaurants upon the colored people of that town?

I wonder what would happen if the Negroes who surround and patronize the various Greek cafeterias in their community would demand that at least one Negro clerk or waitress be employed, if their patronage is to be expected to continue. "THINK OF THESE THINGS." building are ringing with merriment and screaming fife and mourning cello and flaring cornet, and giddy crowds have long reveled in their Bacechanian delight. Not one in a thousand can see the sense of all the digging the neighbor has done, and perhaps the digger himself is a little disgusted and discouraged at his great sacrifice and his ordinary showing. THEN THE GREAT TEST COMES. "And the rain descended and the floods came and the winds blew and beat upon that house and it fell and great was the fall of it. And the rain descended and the floods came and the wind blew and veget upon that other house and it fell not, for it was founded upon a rock." If there were no rains to descend and no floods to come and no winds to blow, one house would be as good as another, but the myriad tongues of history are eloquent with the stories of descending rains, rushing floods and cyclonic winds. The great danger facing the Negro is that he will not dig down and find the rock on which his Fathers stood. THE STORMS ARE COMING IF NOT AT HAND AND THEY ARE BEATING UPON OUR HOUSE.

Lynch Justice At Work Lynch Justice At Work BY B. D. AMIS During the first nine months of this year twenty-five Negroes have been lynched. This number more than doubles the number of lynchings of the entire year of 1920. The lynching of Negroes and mob terrorism have become the most effective weapon used by the "boss" class to keep the black and white workers divided and to lower the living standards of the entire working class. Lynchings rise in number and savage cruelty as the present economic crisis deepens. The white ruling class attempts to perpetuate hatred among the Negro and white workers through a carefully planned system of poisonous propaganda. Through lynchings this same class attempts to keep the workers more sharply divided and thereby prevent militant action on the part of the Negro masses to fight against their terrible exploitation and the most savage and brutal forms of oppression long after the black and white workers divided so long will the bosses be able to exploit greater profits from their labor. The Negro toilers feel the "impar-tiality" of the capitalist judicial machine which refuses to convict the terrorist agents of the bosses on charges of lynchings. A few accounts of the latter are given which show the utter necessity of conducting a decisive struggle against such atrocities. A mob of 1,000 persons composed mainly of business men and respectable officials, took Jimmy Irvine, a Negro worker, from the custody of the sheer1 at Ocilla, Georgia, an lynched him. To justify this barbarous act and make it appear as a "virtuous" act, the bosses press accusation that Irvine had attacked the daughter of a farmer. A standard slanderous lie, that the bosses criminal agents always use to clear the lynchers. A blood thirsty mob, led by the respectable local tankers and bosses, sustained its lust by lynching a 65 year old Negro woman at Barracas' on, North Carolina. They had overlooked accusing this old grandmother of attempting to "rape" some virtuous white master's daughter. Such an excuse would hold good under this bosses lynch-justice of the South. In April, John H. Wilkins, a pullman porter was taken from a train at Locust Grove, Ga., and lynched for no other reason than he smiled at a white woman in the performance of his duties. Only the "flowers" of southern knightsoo, so noble and so upright, who have never raped a Negro young girl can gaze upon such virtue, as a female white skin. Dave Harris was shot to death by a motor or zoo men at Roseate, Miss. This moo of degenerate agents of the armoreds was filled with "race hatred," the kind spread by the bosses to keep the workers divided. They did not realize that they were taking the life of a brother worker who belonged to the working class or which they were a part and which they were betraying by their accs. Neat workers are not alone lynched, but white workers are. The bosses will have the Italian worker believe he is "better" than the French worker; the German worker "superior" to the Italian worker, etc. Thereby, one group is placed against another, and the bosses carry out their exploitive methods. Under such circumstances, even local, a white worker was lynched at giant City, not. In Walhalla, S. C., Allen Green, a 50 year old Negro worker, or attacking a white woman, was taken from jail and lynched by a mob when overpowered and injured the sheriff. As a result or an investigation, by the governor, four men were need and lynch were released on bonds. After one postponement the seventeen lynchers were brought to trial. The judge declared that it was too not to be through long legal battles and discontinued the trial. Justice works in a miraculous way when the workers and especially the Negro workers are involved. It is an unwritten law of the bosses that lynchers shall not be punished; it would be a travesty on our justice. In Kansas, an insane Negro, Clarence rays, who escaped from the hospital was attacked by the saerrn and city marshat. In the right that followed, the saerrn was killed, so it was said, by rays. How an unarmed insane man who was attacked by two armed city officials could kill the saerrn we leave to be explained by the wunt expellers of Kansas. A pose formed and pursued rays to a need. there we took refuge behind a grazing cow, but reaizing his common, he seeped out, nails in air, and entered to surrender. He was riddled with bullets. One of the most barbarous crimes committed was by a moo of thousands or persons in Sherman, Texas. Leading and instigating this mob, the business men of the town, the white ruling exploiters, the oppressors of the Negro touriers. They set fire to the Grayson County Court House, cremating alive Geo. hughes, a Negro worker. The charred body was taken from the rums, fastened with a chain to a car and dragged through the streets of the Negro section. The lifeless body was strung to a tree. The business men then proceeded to destroy the property of the Negroes.

The Richmond Times Dispatch, commenting editorially on the coronation or Kas Tarrari among other things says: The new emperor is said to be a progressive fellow who will build roads, educate his subjects, introduce a little farm machinery and otherwise wake up a country sleeping for 5,000 years. Because ancient Ethiopia was a Negroid empire, modern Negio newspapers have hailed Taffari as a member of their race; but he and his people are a heterogeneous group with Semitic, Arabian and many other non-African strains contributing to the modern product. When a Negro becomes great in his own right he ceases to be a Negro, he is always decidedly mixed with some other race, the blood from the other race being the only contributing factor to his success.

Johnson had been ordered back to work by a farmer, but refused to go. The farmer seized a gun and attempted to force Johnson to work. Johnson momen terilly forgot that he was in slavery and could work when he so desired. Also he forgot that he should not defend himself but must be forehis master. But as he should have done and as all Negro and white workers must learn to do against lynch mobs, Johnson defended himself. mob of terrorists who dragged out Olive Moore and shot him to death. The deputy explained that the leaders gained admittance to the jail by pretending that they had brought a prisoner. This was another lie hatch-ed to cover up the willingness of the city officials to carry out the dictates of the bosses in subduing the militant spirit of struggle and resistance that is rising among the Negro masses. The two major political parties when in power, make no attempt to smash lynchings, because this is the Jack Robertson, a Negro worker, for seeking to collect his wages from his employer of Round Rock, Texas, was attacked by the latter. In self-defense Robertson shot his employer and his wife. Because he sought to obtain wages which were rightfully due him, a posse of 150 planters hunted down the worker and lynched him. All lynchings do not take place in the South. Marton, Ind., became the exponent of lynch-justice with a double lynching of two young Negroes, Tom Shipp, 18, and Abe Smith, 19. These youths were in jail awaiting trial. A mob of onlookers numbering close to 10,000 persons watched the respectable bosses and their agents perform this gruesome orgy. Without any resistance from the "law enforcer" the sheriff, members of the mob entered the jail and seized their victims. The terrified youths were dragged to the lawn of the courthouse and hanged to a tree. The perpetrators of this crime could get no nearer to the portals of justice than the court house window and we are positive gave its consent to the terrible crime.

The deputy explained that the leaders gained admittance to the jail by pretending that they had brought a prisoner. This was another lie hatched to cover up the willingness of the city officials to carry out the dictates of the bosses in subduing the militant spirit of struggle and resistance that is rising among the Negro masses. The two major political parties when in power, make no attempt to smash lynchings, because this is the unwritten law of the land enforced by their interests as exploiters of Negroes. A feeble "effort" was directed to crush this extra-legal apparatus of the bosses by the Dyer anti-lynching bill. This bill was passed in the House of Representatives but when it came to the Senate, the southern senators bitterly opposed it using the pretext that it would curb the state autonomy of the southern states. Consequently the bill died without a struggle but with the usual agreement of both Northern and Southern senators. The gruesome lynchings of Negroes and other forms of organized violence are based directly on the need of the white landowners and capitalist class to perpetuate their system of double exploitation and severe oppression of the Negro farmers and workers. The Negro masses especially of the south are absolutely helpless and defenseless, because they enjoy no social or political rights and especially the right to defend themselves. In order that the Negro masses may be kept in their terrified and defenseless positions, frequent lynchings and all forms of violence are practiced by organizations, agents of the white "boss" class.

MISS McPHAIL ADDRESSES SCHOOL Washington, D. C., Oct. 25.—Miss Agnes McPhail, only woman member of the Canadian Parliament, address. ed the students of Howard University in special assembly at noon, Thurs. day, October 23, Miss McPhail de. clared her interest in the problems of agriculture and international rela. tions, stating that agriculture was Canada’s, as well as America’s great- est. problem. “Agriculture should have repre- sentatives in Parliament whose acti vities are dominated by agricultural interests rather than political par- ties,” stated the speaker. It was be- cause of her interest in agriculture a: a rural school teacher that Miss Mc Phail was elected to Parliament in 1921. She has three times been elected a member of that body and is the on- ly woman of her country ever to be so honored. “Nationalism is a modern epi- demic,” said Miss McPhail, “and wil ultimately result in a lower standard of living than that afforded by world trade.” Miss McPhail was selected by the Canadian government last year as a representative to the League of Na- tions.

Schuyler, well known Ne gro journalist and publicist, is spaking on Sunday, Oct. 26, in Wil rmington, Delaware, to oppose, th re-election of Senator Daniel 0. eae ‘on the ground of his vote to seat Judge John J. Parker on the Supreme Court, A number of N. A. ‘A. C. P. speakers have aided in the anticHastings campaign in Delaware among them Messrs. DuBois, Bag: nall and Thomas, ‘In commenting on the Parker is sue, Mr, Schuyler said in part: “A few months ago the Negroes of this country vere confronted with a challenging problem, The President of the United States, Mr. Herbert Hoover, had appointed to the high- est tribunal of the land, The United States Supreme Court, a two-by-four North Carolina lawyer. Mr. Hoover knew he was a two-by-four lawyer and everyone also in the country knew it, but Mr, Hoover didn’t care. “Judge John J. Parker was and is as opportunistic as President Hov- ver. When he learned that he had been named by President Hoover to the exalted position of a Supreme Court Justice, he hustled about try- ing to get endorsements from lead. ing Negroes, despite the fact that ten years previously when seeking white votes to be elected Governoi of the State of North Carolina, he had stated that he wanted no Negre votes and that he considered it grave mistake that the Negro was in polities at all. In other words, this judge, John J. Parker, Presi dential appointee for the Supreme Couft Bench, was a man who did not believe in the Federal Constitu- tion he must swear to support and on the basis of which he must con- sider all eases that come before the Court for review.” Calling the united action of Amer- ican Negroes under NA. . ©. F leadership for the defeat of Judge Parker “a magnificent spectacle,” Mr. Schuyler hailed it as “the begin ning of a new day in the political life of the Negroes in this country.” Referring to the pro-Parker vote of Senator Hastings, Mr. Schuyler said: “Senator Hastings spit in the faces of the Negroes of Delaware. He ignored their pleas and lined him- self up with the President. The pol- jey_ of Mr, Hoover then and now is to break the Solid South by casting ‘the loyal Negro Republicans down there into the trash can and picking ‘up the lily-white fair-weather Repub- Ticans. . . . Senator Daniel 0. Hast- ‘ings evidently stands with President Hoover on this question of breaking ‘the politically Solid South by tossing ‘the Negro to the hounds of Race Prejudice... . Senators Blease and Heflin believe that Negroes ac- ‘cused of certain crimes should be lynched by blood-thirsty mobs, but Hastings and Hoover believe that the Negro should be__ politically lynched by depriving him of his rights as a citizen.” ‘Only by rewarding their friends and. overthrowing their enemies could Negroes safeguard their rights ‘and gain the respect of their fellow citizens, declared Mr. Sehuyler in Sonelndine his address. Lynching Rampart Los Angeles, Calif., Oct.—Work- ing for 11 years without pay, 19 year old Eva Cooper, was held as a slave here on plantation owned by Pascal Guecione, Demanding her pay she was thoroughly beaten but finally escaped, thru the influence of a group of workers, the case has ‘been brought to the attention of the city prosecutor. Chicago, Ill, Oct—(CNA) David R. Poindexter, Negro organizor for the American Negro Labor Con- gress, was arrested here when he attempted to gain admittance to the rherployment conference __peing held at the Hotel La Salle, by Gov- srnor Emmerson. Poindexter who led a deleration of unemployed Neg- ro and white workers, was set upon by the police—his arrest followed. Ardmore, Okla, Oct—In a gun ficht with Semi Robertson, a Negro worker, Babe Pruitt, constable was shot after he had critically wounded Robertson, Both were removed to the hosvital where Pruitt died. Claude Pruitt, brother of the con- table rushed into the hospital and threatened to kill every Negro in the hospital, He ran into the Negro ward, where Robertson was being treated, chased him from the hospit- al, and after a half mile chase shot him dead. Marion, Ind., Oct—On the heels of the double ‘ivnching two weeks ago, another victim was added to the count, Hezekia Burden was shot to death by a mob here Sunday night. his body. eine found with more than 50 bullet wounds.

JOHN H. JONES Photo By The Browns. Richmond Man Finds Out What New And Different Medicine Can Do You will admit that when seven million bottles of Konjola were used in two years that Konjola must have merit. Well, Konjola is actually 32 medicines in one, and of these 32 ingredients 22 are the juices of roots and herbs known for their medicinal value. Results are what count, and Konjola can be counted on for results. Take, for example, the case of Mr. John H. Jones, 504 Randolph Street, Richmond. See what this amazing medicine did for him, and then decide to find out all about it from the Konjola Man, who is at the Peoples Service drug store, 101 East Broad Street, this city. Learn how Konjola cleanses the ailing organs; rids the system of poisons and brings glorious relief from ills of the stomach, liver, kidneys, and bowels, and from rheumatism, neuritis and nervousness. “Konjola is the most marvelous medicine I have ever found. For several years I had stomach distress almost constantly, and especially after meals. URBAN LEAGUE OFFERS HOOVER UNEMPLOYMENT SERVICE FIGURES SHOW FEWER WORKERS HIRED. In a telegram to President Hoover and letters to Secretary of Commerce Lamont and Colonel Arthur Woods, now in charge of the government's unemployment activities in Washington, Eugene Kinckle Jonse, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League of New York, called attention to the prevalence of unemployment among Negroes throughout the country. Mr Jones cited a number of cities in which Negroes have experienced serious unemployment reevery and reminded government officials that colored workers had not shared proportionately in new work initiated for the purpose of relieving idleness. The services of the National Urban League's Department of Industrial Relations, of which T. Arnold two branches of the League, located in strategic parts of the country, were put at the disposal of the Government. Last minute reports from a number of Urban League centers show that requests for workers in the first nine months of 1930 were far less than those for a similar period of 1929, while registrants for work were greatly in excess. In all league centers the number of people placed in jobs decreased, Philadelphia showing a 50 per cent decrease, Louisville 33 per cent, Cleveland 60 per cent, Minneapolis more than 50 per cent, and St. Paul 35 per cent. SOUTHERN WRITER IN MACON DAILY DEMANDS FEDERAL ANTI-LYNCH LAW New York, Oct. 24.—The only hope of stopping the "blight of mass murder," or lynching, in the South is a liberal anti-lynching law, in the opinion of Coleman Hill, columnist in one of the South's leading dailies, the Macon, Ga., Telegraph. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has received a clipping of Mr. Hill's column, which is a most daring arrangement of Georgia's Governor Hardman and his inactio nin face of the increasing number of mob murders. "He has listened not to the rumblings of the lawless rebellion that is sweeping Georgia," writes Mr. Hill, "but to the whimsies of Amos and Andy. . . The lynching history of this year is convincing proof that only one hope remains if eliminating our blight of mass murder. I have never been one to desire suppression of evil by law. In the entire course of this column I have not, so far as I am recall, urged legislation in remedy for social ills. The disastrous administration of the Volunteer act has been sufficient evidence that stature may be used. Yet in the present emergency I believe a Federal anti-lynching law the only possible cure. Problems it will not work. The need is so pressing that it MUST be tried." Later in his column Mr. Hill writes: "A recent news note told that representatives of the National Association for the Advancement of Color People in New York were nagged in drawing up a statute to be introduced in the next session of Congress; and because I value our character more than our pride, I heartily hope that it will go through." Gas formed and a hot, sour liquid came up into my mouth. This almost choked me. When I tried to sleep the gas pressed against my heart so that I could hardly get my breath. Constipation, liver disorders and nervousness added to my trouble. I despaired of ever finding relief. But friends kept urging me to give Konjola a trial. I can never tell how happy I am over the results from five bottles. My stomach troubles are over and today I can eat anything. My bowels and liver are functioning naturally, and I feel like a new man, full of life and energy. I shall never hesitate to recommend Konjola to my friends." So it goes; victory after victory.

Economic Status Of Negro Studied Washington, Oct.—(Special To The Associated Negro Press) Reporting to President Herbert Hoover the results of a nation-wide survey of the economic situation facing the Negro in America today, a committee of experts, composed of a number of America's foremost students and economists, presented this week a resume of the facts which their study has disclosed. The survey had been suggested by President Hoover, who, in addresses and in personal conversation with leaders of the Negro group, has expressed a keen interest in the development of a program which might improve the economic condition of the Negro population of the country. The study was made under a grant from the Julius Rosenwald Fund. According to the report, which was prepared for the committee by Dr. T. J. Woofter, Jr., Research Professor in the Institute for Research in Social Science of the University of North Carolina, and in which he had the cooperation of a corps of trained white and colored assistants, the Negro, north and south, has been gaining in certain lasses of occupations and losing in others. Agriculturally the report pointed cut the Negro is involved in the general farm problem of the nation, particularly of the south. "America has today on southern farms, a great reservoir of labor," the report said. "The population both Negro and white, is rapidly increasing by excess of births over deaths. Approximately 80,000 more Negroes and 300,000 more white people are born each year than the number who die, in this area. The increase is taking place in a region which under the present system of agriculture will not adequately support those now living there, so that the excess is drained off to the cities. The production of Southern agricultural laborers is low. Their great productivity is about one-half of that of agricultural laborers in other sections. "As a part of the general agricultural situation the Negro farmer in the South relies upon the one-crop system. He is subject to grave fluctuations in the price of cotton and tobacco and does not raise a sufficient proportion of his own food and feed. He is involved in the tenant organization, is dependent upon exorbitant credit facilities, and until recently, has been subject to unsatisfactory market conditions. "In so far as the Negro is a part of the general problem of agricultur ein the South, such steps as are being taken to help agriculture in general should result in his improvement, if care is taken to see that these general programs are as effective for the Negro as for the white farmer. But it may be that additional efforts can usefully be made "The pressure which is driving from country to city a substantial part of the rural population, does not, in the Committee's judgment, mean that the best farmers are leaving the land. Indeed, the fatt-finding report shows that there are many successful Negro farmers under present conditions, and a part of the proposed proarm is to encourage these and to increase their number.

In Fifth Street Baptist Church, Mr. Mitchell is one of the 'powers behind the throne.' Fourth Baptist Church Chair accompanied Dr. Williams. They rendered some music—real thrilling."

That agricultural education in Negro schools and state colleges be generally strengthened; that emphasis be laid on agricultural economics, especially in farm management and marketing. Private, as well as public, funds can play an important part in this work. 2. That continuing attention be paid to extension facilities in order to increase productivity and promote better farm management, especially by improving the career and increasing the number of farm and home demonstration agents and through the federal Board of Vocational Education. Negro agents are especially executive in reaching Negro farmers. 3. That efforts be put forth to include Negro farmers in co-operative marketing projects. Special enrols are needed to make the Negro realize the value of co-operative marketing and enter into the activities of these associations. 4. That experimentation be undertaken to discover better and more economical methods of handling production credits for Negro farmers. 5. That enrols be made to wider land ownership by Negroes, both individually and collectively, and to strengthen communities of Negro and holders. 11. Industry. In industry as in agriculture, profound changes affecting the Negro have been taking place in recent years. In the South, whites now compete with Negroes for such occupations as domestic service, carpentering, brick-laying, plastering, painting, tailoring, and carpeting, most of which formerly were larger, traditional Negro calings. Negroes in large numbers have moved Northward to enter a wide range of urban occupations. Bq 1920 one-third of the Negro population was in cities, and the census of 1980 will show an even larger proportion. Losses in one class of occupations have been offset by gains in others, out the shirts have worked great hardship. The losses have been in certain skilled trades and in municipal employment in the South, and in jobs such as waiters and barbers, both South and North. The greatest gain in Negro employment from 1910 to 1920 (the last year for which census material is available) was in steel, meat packing, rubber, and automotive industries. Questionnaires indicate that the major plants which employed Negroes before 1920 have since continued to employ them in about the same numbers. The Committee notes that there are obstacles to the rise of Negroes into the higher paying jobs, but both the census of 1920 and the fact-finding report of Dr. Woofter indicate an encouraging increase in Negro employment in skilled and semi-skilled occupations. The Committee believes— 1. That facilities for industrial education for Negroes require strengthening. 2. That trained personnel workers or counselors in vocational and educational guidance are necessary in Negro high schools. 3. That, as in the case of agriculture, facilities to raise the economic status of Negro workers, such as those of the Federal Board for Vocational Education and the Department of Labor, should be extended. 4. That employment bureaus should be developed which will be No Home Is Without "The home will completely protect out. In the hours and the next the telephone is friend." AND HE'S RIGHT!

Richmond especially aware of the needs of Negro labor. 5. That Negro membership be further encouraged by organized labor. 6. That the basic importance of being practically trained for industry should be emphasized in the education of the Negro so that full advantage may be taken of opportunities for industrial training and employment. 7. That home ownership should be encouraged. The committee was appointed by the Secretary of Commerce and a personnel included Robert F. Bannon, Secretary of Commerce; Arthur A. Hye, Secretary of Agriculture; Robert M. Jackson, Agriculture Institute, at Tuskegee Institute; Jim Juskins Barnes, Chamber of Commerce of the U. S.; Homer L. Pegerson, President; Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company; Newport News, Va.; William Green, President, American Federation of Labor, Washington, D. C.; I. Arnold Hill, National Urban League; New York City; Benjamin P. Hussey, President, Georgia State Industrial College, Industrial College, Ga.; J. Reagain, Southern Railway Co., Atlanta, Ga.; Junus Rosenwald, Sears, Roebuck & Company. The committee finally expresses itself as being impressed with the need or continuing research by public and private bodies into the problems defined in the survey. According to the committee, the federal government, as well as some groups as the Research Committee on Social Trends and the Presidents Conference on Home Building and Home Ownership can do work of great value in helping to solve a result or study and experiment it is pointed out, runaway economics is changes not only can be more clearly seen, but in some measure they can be guided to the benefit of all. The committee announces that a limited number of Dr. Wooters' report can be obtained from the Julius Rosenwald Fund, 900 South Roman Avenue, Chicago. WHITE SPEAKS IN FRENCH LICK ON "N. A. A. C. P. VERSUS MOB." New York, Oct. 24.—Walter White, Acting Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is speaking tonight in French Lick, Indiana, on "The N. A. A. C. P. Versus the Mob," with particular reference to the brutal lynching in Marion, Ind., of two colored men on August 7. Judge Charles F. Remy, of the Indiana Appellate Court, has also been invited to speak at this meeting. Latest reports from Indiana, following the failure of the Marion Gun Jury to indict the lynchers, state that Attorney General Ogden has personally file criminal proceedings in the Grant Circuit court against Sheriff Jacob Campbell and seven alleged leaders of the lynching mob. The names of 27 persons known to have been in the mob, and allegations of neglect of duty by the sheriff, were submitted to Attorney General Ogden by the N. A. A. C. P. following an investigation on the scene by Mr. White. The sheriff is Grant County Republican chairman and a member of the governor's crime commission. It was charged by the N. A. A. C. P. that the jail doors were left unlocked and that although it was generally known a lynching was planned the sheriff made no effective plans to protect his prisoners. SOCIETY By ETHEL HARRIS 115 E. Leigh St., Rand 5773-J To Dot, From Cecelia I find it something more than a profound pleasure to ask you to reminisce with me on the many incidents that have been forced to our attention, during the last week. Halloween did the expected and the long to be appreciated. It awakened us—at least for a while. We met all the witches and goblins and spoons and traditional figures that usually promenade on October 31, at the home of Miss Dorothy Hopkins, 614 North Judah Street. The "We Moderns" were hosts and hostesses. As mentioned, last week, this was the initial attar staged by the "We Moderns" Decorations and favors characteristic of Halloween, u're used effectively. John Hester with his usual wittyism entertained the Misses Evelyn King, Dorcas Campoet, Sue Clark, Jennifer Booker, Mary Lucas, Charlotte Thompson, Dorothy Hopkins, Laura Westray, Anne Ellis, Kany Jordan, Mayme Edits, Irma Harris, Zemoria Wood Catherine Norrell, Ethel Peterson, Aline Norrell, Thelma Cephas, Leah Cephas, Ethel Harris, Harriette Wilson, Edythe Goode, Alice Jackson; Walker quarles, Edwar Quarles George Peterson, Wesley Segri, R.H Cooley, J.

A Hallowe'en surprise package was found on each plate. T nos present were Misses Dorothy Wooten, Mary Knight, Laura Booker, Mesdames Janette Coleman, and Geneva Carrington. The club regretted the absence of Miss Genevieve Johnson and Mrs. Pearl Charity, both of whom were sick. It is with no sense of paradox that we say we are happy to hear of the re-opening of the Paramount Art and Literary Savers, popular, known as the P. A. L. S. They held their initial meeting with Miss Gertrude Chambers and elected the following officers: President, Miss Gertrude Chambers, Vice-president, Miss Alto Johnson; Financial Secretary, Miss Naomi Thornton; Recording Secretary, Miss Bertina Lockett; Social Secretary, Miss Marina Gee; Treasurer, Miss Ruth Evans; Chaplain, Miss Inola P.

The Hallowe'en social was held at the home of Miss Naomi Thornton. Some of the features at this time were: apple races, guessing games, fortune telling, apple hunt, and pumpkin relays. Prizes were won by Miss Ruth Evans, Naomi Thornton and Alto Johnson. Tose of us who know the P. A. L. S. will recall all of the educational trips that they have taken since their organization. Richmonders were glad to see Mesdames Charles Mitchell and Ai asain aoou noa A'apung uo uoosum Mitchell, wife of the newly-appointed Miner to Liberia was Bessie Lee Murray, and Mrs. Winston was Rebecca Farley, both of whom are our own. Mrs. Ione Lane accompanied them. Dr. and Mrs. James E. Jackson of Douglass Court entertained at dinner in their honor on Sunday. Mrs. P. H. Ford, mother of Mrs. Jackson was present also.

Much interest is being manifested in the home-coming game here on Saturday, between Union and Virginia State. We hear that a number of former students and graduates of Union will be here, including Inman Breaux, "Wolf" Watson, Samuel Brown, W. H. Jones, W. P. Worsley. One of the features of the home-coming game will be the crowning of "Miss Union," it looks as if the title will be given to either of five young ladies, who are the Misses Harriette Wilson, Rose Sully, Jeanette Latham, Peachy Hammell, oil of Richmond and Miss Eunice Joyner of Emporia, "Miss Union" will be crowned at the dance sponsored by the Varsity Club, at Elks Home, Saturday.

It promises to be interesting. --- * * * CECELIA SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR RADIO AND CARE OF YOUR TUBES Radio is one of the greatest inventions that is known to the civilized world, and its progress is greater than any of the other major inventions. Most people do not give their sets a thought so long as it is in a working condition, and as soon as the set stops working they place the volume on the set because it works from the electric light socket. Since the radio requires the same constant attention that your auto or any other piece of machinery does, the following will help you to get better service, better reception out of your radio and will also cause your tubes to wear longer. Ground To Your Radio The ground to your radio is the most important part to the outside of the set. All ground should be connected to a water pipe or a rod driven at least six feet in the ground. (Caution) Radios should never be ground to a gas pipe. Tubes And Their Care The tubes constitute the heart of the radio receiving and broadcasting sets. Most people wonder why their tubes do not last and why their sets do not work as well as they did when they were new. One of the first things that puts out heat on a device signal from local stations so strong that they cause the tubes to overload. This may be taken care of by disconnecting the aerial from local stations only. Of course the new model sets with built in inerials are not affected by this overloading of tubes. Another cause of this trouble in the older modelled radio is that they are built to operate on 110 volts A, C, and when the current rises which it sometimes does it often blows out the tubes or shortens their lives. The late model sets are made to operate on from 90 to 125 volts A, C, and the rising of the current has no effect. AERIALS All aerials should be 75 feet or less. Too much aerial wire will pick up unnecessary interference. Those who live on the car line and have this interference can stop this by running their aerial in another direction or charging it to another part of the house. An indoor aerial will also help to do away with some outside interference. Note: Next week there will appear an article on the National Broadcasting Company, how chain programs are received from coast to coast, and the advent of television in connection with radio. By 1. HENRY JA (Continued on Page 4) ably presided. The next selection was the collection. It amounted to Five Hundred ($500.00) Dollars. And there was no special rally on; this was the general collection only." SANDERSON: "We think that was wonderful. How much money did they RAISE during the GOLDEN JUBILEE SERVICES, please tell us?" AMPLIFIER: "They raised $2,000 or more dollars." AMPLIFIER: "Dr. C. C. Scott, so it is reported, has not been at FIFTH STREET BAPTIST CHURCH more than ten months. But much good has been wrought under his divinely directed leadership. That nearly TWENTY THOUSAND ($200,000) DOLLARS have been raised for the Building Fund." SANDERSON: "Proceed, Amplifier; we are listening." AMPLIFIER: "As I was fixing to say, when Fifth Street Baptist Church heard of Rev. Scott, as being such an able preacher, teacher, leader and worker in the master's vineyard, they leek upon him fixedly, and proclaimed: 'Scott! Scott! Scott! C. C. Scott! Come Over Into Macedonia and HELP US!' The strange divine finally paid the Church a short visit and went back to his field of labor in Pennsylvania. A few days later, Dr. Scott heard the same voice from Fifth Street Baptist Church, Richmond, Va., crying for him again, thus 'Scott! Scott! Come Over Into Macedonia and Help Us.' Come Over to meditate to God as to whether He wanted him to come to Richmond or not, finding that it was HIS WILL. Then Rev. Scott asked this question (in a sermon), 'What Do You Want With Me?' He was told, in other words, he found out what they wanted with him. He began to work arduously, and the Church began to progress rapidly." SISTER SANDERSON: "Umm, Think they've made a good choice. What were you going to say about the flock?" AMPLIFIER: "Dr. C. C. Scott told the Church in plain words that he came to help the body as a whole, and that if they would be advised by him they would soon enjoy an era of brotherly love and Christian fellowship. The Church obeyed, and therefore rejoice in unity and oneness of purpose." SANDERSON: "Yes; they say that before Dr. Scott was called to Fifth Street Baptist Church there were among the flock confusion, discouragement, distrust, bickering, jealousy and schism; but now the Church moves onward and upward with her head lifted above the clouds." SISTER SANDERSON: "Ampme, describe Dr. Scott to us. How is his personality, general make-up, ability, etc." AMPLIFIER: "Gee, you ask me a hard question. I have only met him once. However, Dr. Scott is symmetrical, vigorous, prognitious, congenial, efficacious, dignified, penerating, spiritual, forceful, progressive and commanding. Sometimes his sermons are as SWEET as HONEY, and sometimes they are as BITTER as OUININE. He does not look about for smooth stones, in preaching against sin—he grabs up anything in reach of his ginicidal hands and HITS REAL HARD. Notwithstanding, the people go out in large numbers to hear him. You can not sit within his presence when he is delivering God's messages without absorbing. "I see you all again next week, will tell you more about Fifth Street Baptist Church and its great pastor, Dr. C. C. Scott. Good-night, Mr. and Mrs. Sanderson." Union and St. Paul Battle to a 6-6 Tie At The New NATIONAL Starting Monday Hot off the press! SCARLET PAGES DAILY SCANDAL WHY DID A BROADWAY CHORUS GIRL KILL HER FATHER? WHY DID THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY TRY TO AID THE DEFENDANT? WHY WAS THE GOOD NAME OF ANOTHER WO. MAN DESTROYED, HER CA- REER RUINED? WHAT DID A GOSSIP MAD WORLD LEARN? Based on the boldly frank stage play by Samuel Shipman and John B. Hymer With ELSIE FERGUSON Grant Marion Withers Nixon Now "Maybe It's Love" Great Football Picure! THE RICHMOND PLANET Union and St. Paul 6-6 Tie Heralded as a complete setup, the St. Paul lightweights journeyed to Richmond, Saturday, November 1, 1930 and completely out-smarted and out-fought the Virginia Panthers during the first three quarters of a spectacular football game, a game that had for thrills, brilliant end runs, beautifully heaved forward passes, interceptions that kept the spectators on their feet most of the time; to emerge from the fray with a moral victory if all things are taken into consideration, a deadlock tie 6-6. Taking advantage of a fumble in the second quarter by Union's quarterback, Maxey Robinson, who jugged the ball behind his own goal line dropping it to the ground to be spared by Captain Patterson of St. Paul, giving to St. Paul a substantial lead to cause a world of trouble in the Union camp. In the first quarter both teams resorted to the waiting game, a punting duel between Washington of Union and Jones of St. Paul, both kickers getting away with good spirals. In the fateful second quarter Union found herself within her danger zone, the fast charging lightweight of throwers Union's backfield men for throwers' losses. On a play that is still in doubt, Maxey Robinson received a bad pass from center and after having partially retrieved it, the ball dropped to the ground, bounding around to no where in particular and along comes Patterson of St. Paul who snuggled the ball safely beneath him with a seething mass of Union beef on top of him.

November 1.—The Hornet football eleven of the Alabama State Teachers College at Montgomery served as a yellow epidemic to Paine College at Augusta Georgia on last Friday and ran rough shod over the Georgians for a 40-13 score and returned home in anticipation of their game in Columbus Georgia on Armistice Day with Chief Alken's Black Battallion of Death. This is the second year that the citizens of Columbus have brought this game there, as a part of their armistice day celebration, Clark having the downed the Teachers there last November 11 by a 13-2 count on a muddy field. Indications point to one of the largest crowds in the South for the current season. At least 500 fans will accompany the Hornets to Columbus along with Alabama State's players. The Clark conference will also be around the metro and the Teachers go to the Georgia metropolis this year with blood in their eyes to avenge the defeat of last year. --- The Power of the Cross 100 - ONE HUNDRED PERSONS - 100 Will present this Great Biblical Pageant at the Second Baptist Church MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1930 at 8:30 P.M.

Too, he claimed that he distinctly heard low moans and other unearthly sounds which congealed the blood in his veins and caused him to have serious trouble with his heart. He said that at first he thought the ghost was armed with a long rifle, but later came to the conclusion that he had been mistaken about that. Anyway, when he had summoned sufficient courage to resume his way and started towards the shed, the white ghost rose up in the air and vanished mysteriously somewhere about the roof of the shed. The thing had simply risen up as if hoisted by an invisible means of support. And after that there were no screechy sounds nor signs of sheeted figures. There had been a murde committed at this barn five years before. Lorane Larkins, who lived alone, a beautiful spinster—one of the most popular women of the countryside—had lost her sweetheart there at that building when he was knifed to death by a rival, Bob Cole. They had found the body of the slain man, but they had never found Cole; and Lorane, who farmed a thirty-acre tract, and had money of her own, had offered a strong reward for the capture of Cole, dead or alive. There- There discover it awa he'd n to tak he pa his fo colored fore, the preacher's story of seeing the ghost at the barn was enough to cause a storm of comment. Lorane was asked what she thought about the ghost, and said she didn't believe it. The minister had, in all probability, been thinking of the murder of the man she still loved, as he came upon the barn, and his imagination had worked over time. He had, in other words, seen things that didn't exist. This was, in any case, the method used in explaining away this phenomenon. Lorane lived a mile from the barn, and was the closest one to it. She lived alone. She had had enough of men, she claimed. There had been two in her life. Bob Cole was one of them—the first one, and Tom Reynolds, the victim of Cole, the last. She had never cared much for the first man, but the other had gripped her heart in such a way that she had never been able to escape from his influence, even after his y-acre own, or the There- "The deputy stood there with his automatic drawn . . .

When n went to her house they went there on business. And they didn't stay long. The handsomest and most adept in the game of winning feminine response failed miserably when it came to winning answers from this woman who had shut and sealed her heart. Of course, there was more of a enough mystery about the murder at the had been Clattershaft barn than people commonly believed. The slain man must Tom have carried a large amount of money, the on his person the night of the killing, such for which he had drawn five thousand dollars out of the bank the same had Clean Fiction Human Interest Features afternoon. This had disappeared and there was no record of its whereabouts. Lorane Larkins, riding horseback and driving cattle the next morning, had discovered the corpse. It must have been a shock to her, caring as much for Reynolds as she did. And she had telephoned the sheriff. A few facts had been established. For one thing, Tom Reynolds had been seen at the barn with Bob Cole near five o'clock on the evening before. They were observed standing under the same shed where Sam Dyke saw the ghost. But they were having no words of any kind, and seemed to be getting along quite friendly. However, it was perhaps only ten minutes later when Bob Cole had driven his knife blade into Reynolds's heart. There had been, to be sure, no eye witnesses to the murder, but everybody possessed approximately the same suspicion. But it was fortunate for her that she wasn't brought into the thing, Lorane contended, caring for the lost sweetheart as much as she cared for him. "Why, he's in my heart and mind all the time," she declared. "I can't sleep, can't forget him, and I see his face day and night. Those big brown eyes of his, and that stray curl of hair that dropped down on his forehead. Gawd! it's haunting me to my grave—the memory of the only man I ever loved." She told how she recalled the early days of their romance, when they had climbed the hills and strolled through clover fields, and how they had gathered the wild flowers that grew alongside the rail fences, and how they had lingered by the old Hudson Mill dam, listened to the big moss-covered wheel swish water, and how they had fished there in the stream where fish played in transparent water in the shade of willow trees, and how they had declared their love for each other. Aye, those were memories that women treasure, each one like a pearl on a string of a valuable heirloom. Never would she forget the man she loved, and never would she love again. What kept the authorities from dragging Lorane Larkins into this thing, it was said, was the fact that she offered a large reward for the capture of Bob Cole, dead or alive. The dead part of it had not been approved by the officers, but she had made the offer just the same. And when the minister reported seeing the ghost, men armed themselves with rifles and shotguns and whatever weapons they got their hands on, took their dogs and made for the old barn. But they found, as most of them had anticipated, nothing after a search but a few cigarette butts where some of the neighborhood boys had been shooting craps. Those and nothing more. But some crafty individual, evidently jealous because Lorane would not respond to the attentions he was bestowing upon her, took to watching this pretty woman, and after several days of watching in the woods, hiding not far from where the Larkins cabin stood, appeared at the sheriff's office with a strange and almost unbelievable story.

Garner (Continued from last week) At the tap of the gong I felt all the nervous anxiety that one can feel when one is supporting a boxer who has not had a real fight for several years, and who is at the moment swapping gloves with the cleverest fighter in his class in the world. The seconds were trying to tell me something but I excitedly hushed them while I looked on. I must say here and now, that my boy did not shape up satisfactorily in that first round a bit. Dorsey brought the fight to him from one gong to the other and he was in lieve he should mix it with Dorsey instead of running away. Tragically Johnnie was keeping away from everything and not sending a thing in return. From a fighting angle I was disappointed. "Say, what the heck's the matter with you!" I almost yelled at Johnnie when the round was over and the crowd was cheering Dorsey and telling him to K.O. my boy. "You haven't forgot how to hit, have you?" Larkins resented my hastily made remarks. "See here, —!" he growled while being rubbed, "I promised to give you the best I had in this fight, didn't I? Well, it ain't over yet so just hold your high horse a little longer, big boy!" "But he is walking away with the fight."

Johnnie impatiently countered. I could have given him a kick and let the matter rest but he had answered the gong before I could say another word. Dorsey started swiftly with a rush and Johnnie stepped aside at the same time hooking a sharp right to the stomach. It was Johnnie's first blow and it savored of encouragement. Again Henry rushed but it was only a feint for when Johnnie side-stepped to hook, Dorsey moved with him and sent telling right and left hooks to the head and body. My word, I began to believe for a moment all that Dorsey had said about Johnnie. Then followed a clinch. The boys broke clean and both rushed at one another so fast that I had great fear that they would knock each other out by the impact of their heads. They both complained to the referee that the other was butting and the referee ordered both to fight. Then furious boxing began. I do hope that if Johnnie has the fortune, good or bad, to read this he will forgive me for my loss of faith in him during the first few minutes of the fight for after the butting contest I again had the pleasure of seeing rushes met with swift, though light, left hand jabs. Johnnie was boxing! He was on his toes and sending that left like lightning for the rest of the round. Probably when he butted his head against Dorsey's, it brought him to his senses. "That's the stuff!" I greeted him as he came in for the moment's rest. "Why didn't you work like that at first?" "I wanted to find out something. I'm all right now." "Did you find out?" I asked eagerly though I knew he must have or he would not have changed his tactics. "Yep," was his monosyllabic reply. "What was bothering you?" I asked. "Can't talk now—but just you wait." If there is one thing I do hate, it is to be left in anxiety about things. But I had to wait and wonder as I watched the third round. Johnnie left the corner flying but stopped abruptly just in time to miss by a pink whisker the hardest punch Dorsey had let drive. "That kid of mine knows something," I said proudly. "Boy, you said a mouthful! It was just that kind of a punch that put McKay down for the count in training the other day," a second replied. "Wait a minute—look at that!" I was on my toes now. The two boys were standing toe to toe and hitting. Johnnie's left would shoot out and come back like elastic and always be just inside of Dorsey's sledge hammer right which for some reason just grazed Johnnie's chin. The work was pretty and fast but except for a slight lump under Dorsey's eye there was no damage done. At the close of the round the crowd seemed well satisfied that it was getting its money's worth and, furthermore, it seemed to have no favorite now as it had indicated at the close of the first round.

If the sheriff didn't believe this story about this colored beauty, he could investigate for himself. So the sheriff decided to follow this stray "tip." But he sent a colored deputy instead. His time was taken up with a series of bank robberies that were infesting the county. And the deputy, Homer Strawe, armed with a sawed-off shotgun and an army automatic pistol, occupied a hidden position not far from Lorane's abode. When the moon came out, the woman came out, it seemed, and she carried a market basket on her arm. Strawe followed her. She walked slowly, as if she wasn't in any hurry at all. However, she didn't follow the road. She took a shortcut through the hay field, and as soon as she got out of sight of the road she increased her gait. Sure enough, just as the snitch had said, she entered the Clattershaft barn with the basket and was out of sight for an hour before the deputy took it upon himself to see what she was doing in there. Strawe was in somewhat of a questionable predicament. If there was anything foul about this thing, and there happened to be a man hiding in the barn, his life would be in danger the moment he entered the building and demanded to know what was taking place. Consequently he exercised a little caution. He crept up to the building, on the side of the machine shed, climbed one of the thin poles that supported the roof, and crept across the roof to the barn. The sight that met his gaze almost stopped his heart. In the glare of a lighted lantern, squatting on the floor eating, were Lorane Larkins, and her former sweetheart. Bob Cole! The deputy stood there with his automatic drawn, peering through the crack as he grappled with his amazement. But he knew his eyes did not deceive him. He had depended upon them too many times before, and found them dependable. There was a loose plank in front of him. He discovered it and was sure that he could pull it away with his hands. How much noise he'd make was the question, but he decided to take a chance. He did. The board gave way. It left an opening large enough for him to squeeze through into the loft of the barn. No sound had disturbed the lovers, who sat with their backs to him.

Peco tells Carl the next morning that Lissy has told him how Elmira has been chasing Carl, and they become friends. When Toto comes in from the field she is cold toward Carl because of his affair with Elmira. He convinces her of his innocence. While they are talking Colonel Barre rides up and tells them that a woman of Toto's description is wanted in New Orleans for slashing a man. He seems to be well acquainted with Toto, but asks Carl has he seen such a woman. Carl, understanding that the decision is up to him, tells the Colonel that there isn't such a woman on the place. Toto kisses Carl. Carl feels his sensse dip and sway as though he were sinking into an abyss of delight. A man in a dark shirt and a woman in a light dress stand close together, their arms around each other, as they look at a man in a dark shirt who is standing behind them. The man in the dark shirt is holding a glass of wine. They gather around for the passion-inspiring scronch. slowly, as one who awakens from a deep sleep, and smiled happily at her. Forgotten was Antoinette; forgotten was Chicago and his career. He lived only in the ecstasy of her nearness—of the delightful fragrance which hung about her—of the heart-shaking joy of her kisses. "You do love me a little, don't you?" Toto's voice was softer than the murmur of a woodland stream, and its very intonations caressed him like forgotten perfume. **Carl Declares His Love** "Love you," he sighed. "Why, I a- They gather around for th dore you. I've never dreamed that there was anything like this. I love you more—more than anything in the world!" "Even Elmira?" she suggested, woman-like. "Don't be silly!" the man cried. "Nobody — nothing counts — except you, my darling!" "Didn't you ever love anyone—before?" the woman persisted gently, as though probing in his soul for the absolute knowledge that he was completely hers. The thought of Antoinette drifted through Carl's mind like a pale cloud before the bright sun.

Now I know that there never has been anyone but you . . ." "Where is—this girl?" Toto demanded with mock fierceness. "She can't have you! You're mine! Mine!" "She's in Chicago," Carl said indifferently. "I don't want to even think about her . . . only about you . . ." Toto kissed him again, then pushed him away hurriedly. "There come some pickers," she whispered. Carl got to his feet dazedly. Hotshot was e passion-inspiring scronch. among the group which came up for a weighing. He regarded Carl with a wide grin. "Ain't losin' no time, is you boy?" he whispered. Then he came closer to Carl. "I heard 'bout Elmiry las' night. I knew that gal was gonna make trouble." He chortled as his bright eyes met those of Toto. "But I reckon she'll let you alone now," he predicted. "Shut up!" Carl bade him with a laugh. "You'll get me in hot water again." "Old Bogo ain't said no mo' t' you, has he?" the little man inquired guardedly. Hotshot Advises Carl "He hasn't been in the fields today," Carl replied. "I've been on the lookout for him." "Whut he's doin' is makin' corn likker," Hotshot informed his friend. "He's gettin' ready f' th' big scronch two nights f'm now.

"I'll be there," Carl promised, with a glance at Toto, "with bells on! Me," he added with a touch of shy brava-ado, "and Toto!" "Ain't you comin' out of de sticks!" Hotshot exulted. Then he drew Carl to one side. "Still figgern' on pullin' out and hittin' for Chi?" he whispered. The thought penetrated Carl's mind with something of a shock.

Well, jes' member this: a woman's a woman — and Toto — well, you couldn't hardly take her back up Nawth wif you, now could you?" Carl's brow furrowed, then Toto arose and strolled over to him. "What are you all talkin' about so confidential?" she demanded, with a sweet assumption of the rights of a sweetheart. In spite of her light words her keen eyes were watchful, as though she suspected something of the conversation. To Hotshot she said with apparent negligence, but with a faint undertone of warning: "Not tryin' t' get my daddy in no trouble, are you Shorty?" A Subtle Warning "Ho-ho-ho!" Hotshot cackled. "Me tryin' a get Carl in trouble? That's a good one! Why chile, I'm de one whut gets him outa trouble!" But in spite of the little man's uproarious laughter, his brown eyes met the woman's hypnotic grey gaze with unwavering steadiness. When Hotshot and the others had gone, Toto told Carl that she, too, must go. The youth begged her to stay with him a while longer, but she remained obdurate. "I've got something to do, sweetheart," she told him, as she stroked his cheek. "But when am I going to see you again?" Carl insisted. "Tonight?" again?" Carl insisted. "Tonight?" Toto shook her head slowly. "No, darlin'. I've got something to do tonight." At Carl's look of disappointment, she continued with a small smile.

WHITE LAUGHTER ter that—" her voice dwindled away, leaving a promise which was enhanced by the alluring smile she gave him as she made her way toward the woods with the lithe, undulating grace of a wild thing. Carl watched her go with a mixture of feelings. She had said: "I've got something to do tonight." What had she meant by that? Were the things that folks said about her true? Then he chided himself for the thought. "I've told her that what she is doesn't matter to me," he reminded himself, "and that goes.

Over smaller fires, above which hung pots and spits, the women were frying, roasting and boiling, so that the delicious odors which came from the cookery made the men's mouths water with anticipation. There would be fried cat-fish, barbecued pork, fried chicken, and fried frog legs in plenty. Large, succulent yams were roasting, and stacks of corn denuded of their green wrappings were laid neatly near the fires ready for boiling. In covered baskets near the women reposed large, heavily frosted cakes, and many crisp brown pies, together with small jugs of the dark molasses used to make "sweetenin' waters" for those who did not care to partake of the fiery white liquor which Bogo had made and would tonight sell for a dollar a pint. Not far from the fire circle there were two long board tables. These became gaming tables with the falling of night, and, covered with blankets, saw the exchange of many hard-earned dollars when the card and dice games got going.

It takes a very wise man to satisfy a woman completely, and when he does do so, he has made a definite achievement. He has convinced another human being that he is indispensable.
