‘The progruwme “To make America
Safe for Americans,” on which the As-
sociation is making its drive was given
out as follons by Mr. Sbilludy:
1. A vote for every Negro man and
Woman on the same terms as for white
nen tnd women,
2 An equal elance to acquire the
Kind ct an education that will en-
alle the Negro everywhere wisely to

“If it were not a painful fact that
more than four-fifths of the colored
people of the country are denied these
elementary rights, ” said Mr. Shillady,
“It wuld seem an absurdity that an
organization is necessary to demand
for Americin citizens the exercise of
such rights. .
“One would think, if he were from
Mars, or if he kuew America only by
reiting the sperches of her leading
statesinen that alt that woutd be need-
ful would be to apply to the conrts of,
the land and to the legislature,
When the fundamental rights of
citizens are go wantonly denied and
that denial justified and defended as’
it is by the kismakers and dominant!
forces Of so large a number of our}
states, it can he realized that the

wieans at fundamental battle for real}
things, for life and liberty. |
‘The’ common citizenship rights of;
no group of people. to say nothing of|
etry 12,000,000 of them, can be deé-
nied with impmuity to the state anil

This fact should he plain to the dull-

Reese Europe, organizer and “leader
of the band of the 30th Infantry (the
old isth) called “The Hell Fighters.”
It was ouly three months ago that
Jim Lurope, with his 100-strong jazz
band, ;,in the van of his regiment,
marched proudly up Fifth Avenue and
north into Lenox Avenue, — through
the kvart of the Black Belt’ of Harlem
that had avited long for the dawning
of that day.
The same mex, women and clsildren
who, that afternoon, from the side
walks overran the police and threw
their arms about the paraders were
assembled again yesterday, but there
was none of the cheers that then had
drowned the melody of Jim Europe's
band. Windows and roofs and fre
escapes of the five and six story apart-.
ment houses of the neighborhood were
filled to overflowing, but with, a sitent
throng,
For more than four Lours the Negro
residents of Harlem with a consid-
erable number of whites watched the
long funeral procession a8 it wended
its way from an undertaker's shop in
West I81st street, to St. Mark’s Meth~
odist Episcopal church in 33rd street,
between Broadway and Eighth Ave~
nue, where a funeral service was held.
By the throngs along Broadway the
passing of Europe was felt as keenly
as among the Negro residents of Har-
lem and the San Juan Hill section.
New York had known Jim Europe loag
hefore the war’ when he had carned
fame ax director of the Negro Sym-~
pony Orchestra. Jt was later that he
contriuted so goodly x share toward
making syncopated musie popular on
Rroadway, A majority of the dances
that Tave sent New York whirling
rcross the trotteries were airs that he
had written, He composed all the,
Castle dances.
One of the biggest floral pieces that
lecorated the dead, band leader's coffin
yesterday was sent by Irene Castle.
Tremau. Bert williams sent a florak
piece, Col. Hayward a wreath and
fhere were mayoral offerings from
the Turf aud Clef clubs,
Europe organized the Clef Club and
what, his loss meant to the Negroes of
the city was pertaps best expressed
ny Tunney Johnson. spokesman for the
organization. 7
“ftefore Jim Furope came to New
York.” he said, “the colored man knew
nothing but Negro dinces and porter’s
work, All that is changed now. Jim
Europe was the living’ open sesame to
rhe Negroes of this city. He took,
hem from their porters’, places and
raised thém to positions of Importance >
is real musicians, .
In the streets outside thé chorch
he throng was so dense that the fa- ,
reral procession was held up over an.
1our until the policé reserves could
Jear a lane wide enough for the car~
iages to pass, :
After the service the body was ex
orted to the Pennsylvania Statioa to
e sent to Waskington for intermeat
n Arlington Cemetery. where it will
buried with milltary honora—The-

NEGRO SOLDIER BEATEN
(Associated, Negro Pressi
Atlanta, Ga., May 10—That there is going to be a show down for "equate rights" and a conspicent clash of races in the event of them not being granted, is more and more apparent from day to day. Benjamin Henea, a returned soldier from France, went into a drug store to make some purchases, an on his way out, possibly thinking of the delightful surroundings of France, stepped to a soda fount, and asked for a refreshing drink. Forgetting all Biblical admonitions with reference, "I thine brother asleep for a drink," or Powch, a white clerk, seized a ball bat from beneath the soda fount, and proceeded to pound it against the soldier head. Henea was picked up insensible, and was taken to the Grady Depital, and later to his quarters at Con Gordon. Powch was arrested for "od orderly conduct."

SATURDAY MAY 17TH, 1919
Even to those who are jealous of the good reputation of the Southland, when it is brought up for comparison with that of other sections of our common country, there must come, now-a-days, the awful and significant truth that among thousands and thousands of its people in both rural and urban communities civilization is at a very low ebb.
Lawlessness, riot and lynching, even are not confined to any particular section of the United States, and hence the very good reason and timeliness for calling the anti-lynching conference recently held in New York; but there is such a condition, persistent and unrelenting rampage of riot, murder and lynching in the South today, that the most gallant and proud defenders of the vaunted "fair name" of the southland must hang their heads in shame and chargin in the face of the bloody and horrifying facts.
There never was the equal of the present day epidemic of unprovoked contempt and disrespect for law which is so apparent in many instances of tragedy and bloodshed which fill the columns of newspapers of southern communities just now. At no time of the past have we had these horrors with such frequency, with such manifest brutality and beastly character, and with such convincing proof of the degenerating moral and human standards of the people. Thousands here, and hundreds there, "stormed the jail," overpowered the jailor, "took the prisoner into the heart of the city, lighted the fires, strung him up while he pleaded for mercy, and riddled his writhing form with bullets." Or (as in the case of the Charleston blue-jackets) "Negroes only were the object of attack." Or, in the Jenkins county lynching, "there had been such a delay in the case of _____, the people decided to take the law into their own hands and bring matters to a close."
Negroes are being lynched at a very high rate now-a-days, and many of those who have returned from the fighting have been driven from their homes, because they have not gone to the fields as early after their return as their neighbors thought. These facts cannot be disputed. Lynching by wholesale, when whole families are exterminated, whole communities of people destroyed, their churches, schools, lodge buildings and their homes burned, are becoming very, very fashionable. All the white boys, their fathers, mothers, old men, sweethearts come together at the sound of the trumpet that "there's to be a Negro-hunt"; all participate in the bloody revelry of torture and burning and glastly brutality. The orgy is beginning to take the place of foxhunts and picnics in many places.
The young grow up, with the brutal instincts greatly accustomed above that of their fathers. Terror and contempt and destruction for all Negroes constitute part of the fireside precept, impressed with too frequent example. Atlanta, Palmetto, Blakley, Waynesboro, Stateboro, Jesup, Midville, Valdosta, Reidsville, Griffin, Marietta, Millen, et. al. have entered the Hall of Fame through blood-swept paths of slaughtering and burning human beings by wholesale. Many other Georgia cities are entitled to the coveted distinction.
And the mob leaders learn and develop the taste for brutality and for blood. They must have blood, and yet more blood, to satisfy their animal, appetites. This desire is like unto a consuming fever which blood and tragedy alone can cool. And so they turn, upon occasion, to killing their kind, their fathers, their mothers, their wives, their friends, and all fall victims to the blood-lust. Possessed by the feverish desire for blood, and reveling in excitement and terrorizing, the human quality quickly gives way to the animal, and murder results. Every city and every hamlet has its fame of tragedy today.
The gunman and the mob-man stalk the streets of every city today, unleashed and set, to strike down or lynch and burn, at suggestion, all because of an unorganized and cowardly public sentiment, or what is worse, a sort of acquiescence which spells moral decay and retrogression.
Every Negro man, loyal to his home, to his children and to his race, will be interested in the meeting to be held next Wednesday night at St. Philip church, by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; and every true head of his family and leader of his race will be there, or send in his word that he stands with the association and the ideals and raises it is fighting for.
The times and conditions of the present for our people are perilous and critical, the world over; our interests
reach from France, where the fate for hundreds of years of all races and nationalities are being sealed and determined, back to Wrightsville, Georgia, where the last Negro victim of the hating Georgia mob was slaughtered without show of trial and in contempt of all law and order. Every Negro should be interested in the vital questions to be dealt with there, because the condition of thousands of Negroes in Georgia is such that the mere "assembly" of Negroes is unlawful and forbidden.
Here in the city, where there is some semblance of fairness and justice and hearing of our causes, we must not lose our chance to make our voices heard in protest at the oppression of our people, by default, while yet we have the opportunity. If we do, our fate will be the "common fate of all" Negroes throughout the land. A great many things need consideration in Savannah. Our people suffer many indignities which we believe the better classes of the people will not endorse and approve. But these better people do not know these things. They have never had them brought to their attention in the proper way.
There must be calm and sensible consideration of these things by competent men, honestly seeking the truth and the right. Such opportunity is provided by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It undertakes to fight with facts and according to standards of reason and law and justice; and these methods must eventually avail.
In Memory
BAKER—In sad but loving memory of my darling baby Erline Elizabeth Baker, who departed his life May 11, 1917.
Two years have passed since that sad day when one I loved was called away God called her home, it was his will, but in my heart she liveth still. I often sit an think of her when I am all alone, for memory is the only friend that grief can call its own. Friends may think the wound is healed, but little know the sorrow that lies within my heart concealed.
Mother, Mrs. Mary L. Busch
BROWN—In memory of our darling
babies, Thelma May Brown, departed
this life Jan. 1, 1917, two years and
four months in heaven and Nathamiel
Casus Brown, departed this life May
19, 1917, two years in heaven.
Our very lights and love of home
That came, we thought to stay;
To make us happy while we live,
Too soon were called away.
In the cemetery quietly resting,
Where flowers gently wave;
Lie the ones we loved so dearly,
In their cold and silent graves.
Their voices are silent in our home.
Folks may think the wounds are healed
But God knowest best.
Sleep on dear darlings and take thy
Grand Mother, Mrs. Eya, Garrette

Editor Sayb. Tribune:
Sir: Never in my life was I so much enthused as I was Wednesday May 7th when nearly 5,000 men, women and children told everything aside to welcome home the colored warriors of Chatham county and community. I myself being a soldier, a member of the 360th from New York with which I was wounded in action, September 27, east of Reins. I was in the great parade in New York. I was in the parade in Philadelphia. I am aware of the fact that the parade in New York was a complete unit and well organized, but outside of New York Savannah has the banner for entertaining the World War veterans and what I say I say it with out fear of contradiction. I was born in Savannah, and reared here and have a mother here but have been living in Philadelphia for some time and I came south to see my dear mother who begged me to stay until after the parade. I insisted that I must go back north. Now I have stayed and don't think I will ever get back to Philadelphia for some time to come. I have several friends from my old regiment who say the same thing. So I will say that Savannah is the Mecca of entertainments.

DISTRICT CONFERENCE
DISTRICT CONFERENCE
The West Savannah District Conference came to a close on the 11th at Gray mont. Ga., and was a great success. Rev. W. G. Alexander, Presiding Elder and Rev. R. Lee, Postor. The annual sermon was delivered by Rev. H. V. Branch of Savannah Ga., and it was a rare treat to the vast vantage to learn this spiritual message. The address of the Presiding Elder was very good, and the welome addresses were a source of inspiration on Hon. J. Durden and Rev. M. Calppeper, both white, also delivered encouraging addresses to the Conference and assured the conference that they were pleased to have the session there. Misses Martha Randall of the Baptist Church, and Duncan Flowers of Darden Grove Baptist Church extended cordial welcome addresses. Among those leading in the Educational Rally were Dr. R. L. Heard, G. H. Green, D. H. Williamson, D. W. Stephens, D. Foster, R. V. Branch, C. A. Moore, L. W. McMillen, A. B. Scrudy and others. The full amount raised for education was $700.00. Dr. C. M. Manchig of Central Park conducted the Bible Institute Work to the satisfaction of all present. Rev. W. O. P. Sherman Jr., the C. B League Supt., was also a visitor, and also spoke in the interest of the Christian Endeavor Work. The Conference passed resolutions endorsing the Educational meeting held at Macon, Ga. a few days ago.
ST. PHILIP A. M. E. CHURCH
Large crowds attended Sunday, and the pastor prescheed two interesting sermons at 11:30 a.m., and 5:30 p.m. The special service for the Cradle Bell proved a success at the close of the Sunday School exercises. The A. C. E. League was also well attended, and interest ran high. More than eight thousand dollars have been collected from the Victory Rally, and efforts are being made to increase this amount to $10,000 by the fourth Sunday. Order of services.
FIRST BRYAN BAPTIST CHURCH
Our meetings each were spiritual blessings. The interest manifested by the members is very commendable, and many new members are being added at each service. The Martha Prestis Sewing Circle on last Sunday at 11 o'clock, carried out a very interesting Memorial Service in honor of the fathers and mothers of this honored spot, who have finished their good works, and have gone to the beyond. The pastor preached the sermon, and a splendid program was carried out. Each department of the congregation had their regular services at the usual hour. At night, the pastor preached the subject, "Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost," and a large crowd bowed for prayer. Collection $79.43. Order of services tomorrow as usual. Revival will continue until the 25
BETH EDEN BAPTIST CHURCH "Waiting for the salvation of the Lord" was the subject for the morning text, and "Helping yourself" for the evening text. The latter text was delivered to the Tribe of Dan, which made its report after the services. The tribe, under the leadership of Mrs. Hattie Edwards, made an excellent report. The Sunday School is taking on new life, and is now graded, and we are asking the parents to not only send the larger children to Sunday School, but the smaller ones and your selves as well.
