CLASS DISTINCTIONS MUST GO
Delegates attending the jubilee convention of the joint centenary committee of the Methodist Episcopal church, held last week in Cleveland, sounded the keynote of present day problems by declaring that power, whether political, economical or industrial, must not be monopolized by one class to the detriment of the other, and that class distinction must be abolished. Upon this rock, we build our church, "and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."
There is nothing like looking facts in the face and facing the issue. There is nothing to be gained by trying to fool one's self. The convention adopted resolutions stating that much of the present social unrest is due to conditions which had existed previously but were not recognized until demonstrated by the war.

RAIL ROAD MEN PLAN FOR FURTHER ACTION
1st Asst. Vice-president T. Cs Jefferson of Savannah in Attendance
(Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., July 1—International officers and field organizers of the Pioneer organization of colored railroad men convened at their headquarters here to plan further action as to the policy to pursue in securing the Negro railway workers of the country in their jobs and rights and to have proper enforcement of the present laws of the . R. Administration, International President, R. L. Mays, will be in conference with 1st Vice president Benj. J. Davis of McGehee, Ark., representing switchmen and breakmen, 1st Asst. Vice pres. T. C. Jefferson of Savannah, Ga.; firemen, R. B. Holmes Southeastern Gen. Chairman of colored trainmen, 5th Vice president J. A Ross of New York, Pullman porters; field organizer A. E. Stormm, Philadelphia, dining car men; 3d Vice President, Jony Davies, Meadville, Pa., shop crafts and deputy field organizers; Alex Jones, Florence, N. C., Walter Jones, Sanford, Fla., I. L. Benjamin, Sp. Richmond, Vn. The president of a score of eastern locals will also be in attendance. These men represent the Railroad Men's International at Benevolent Industrial Association, chartered five years ago by the state of Illinois. The one outstanding feature of the war-period in Negro labor circles is the series of successful fights made by this association for colored railroad employees.
By a masterful plea their president first won "equal pay for equal service" from the Federal Wage Commission and Director Gen. McAdoo. Later interpolation No 13 and succeeding in securing the issuance of supplement No. 12 beat the roads in their plea for a review and a different ruling, resulting in many colored head-end men receiving as much as a thousand dollars in back pay. All increases to Pullman and dining car men resulted from the efforts instituted by this association, and the association is, in fact, a federation of all crafts of colored R. R. workers, under the leadership of a capable vice president, elected from the particular craft. While the association now has many thousand members in 39 different states, the object of the present conference is to reform the lines for a supreme effort to combine the many independent organizations of colored men, whose recent formation will only divide the strength of the colored railway men.
Congressman M. B. Madden of Illinois will be present with a memorandum outlining the Negro railway workers views on legislation which may come before congress affecting government control of railroads. Atty W. L. Houston, for 29 years a practitioner in the Di-triet courts, is the permanent Washington representative, Hon. Jas. R. White, law partner of Col. Franklin Dennison, and S. A. T. Watkins of the K. of P. is the general counsel at Chicago. Mr. White recently appeared before the T. S. Supreme court here for Georgia Templars and tried the colored Masons' case in Texas.

ABANDON SCHEME TO
SEGREGATE NEGROES
(Associated Negro Press)
Brooklyn, N. Y. July1-Negro Republicans of Brooklyn have forced the G. O. P. leaders to abandon their scheme to segregate the colored voters in the approaching political campaign. At a meeting of the Republican County Committee they were informed that the discrimination against them would be stopped and that they would be considered on equal footing with the white men and women in the management of the campaign.
George E. Wibecan, leader of the colored race here, who championed the cause of his people, said the victory won by his race was due largely to the wide publicity given to the complaint by the Associated Negro Press.
The Republican leaders have decided to give up their idea of appointing a committee of ten Negroes to work among their own people during the campaign and to represent the colored voters at the unofficial convention at which the party candidates will be designated. Instead, one Negro will be added to the county committee in each assembly district, increasing the colored representation by twenty-three votes.
P. R. Roberts of Metter, Ga., a student of Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga., is spending a few days in the city, he will return to Atlanta about the 7th on August. While here he is giving his services to his race and has engaged in missionary work.

As a whole, commending Secretary Baker for his effort to "act without prejudice toward the colored soldier," he asserted there should have been 8,000 colored officers instead of 1,200. This he said. Is based on the number of colored troops engaged, which was placed at 400,000.

FEDERATION OF LABOR
WIPES OUT COLOR LINE
Vote to Admit all Negro Workmen in United States 1970 Unions
Atlantic City, N. J. -One of the most advanced steps toward the abolition of race distinction since the Civil war was made here last week when the American Federation of Labor emphatically declared for the essential brotherhood of workers throughout the country, no matter what their color. With but one dissenting vote, the Federation went on record for the thorough organization of the millions of Negroes in America. Friends of the Negro say that before this year the debate in favor of wiping out the color line in organized labor would have been impossible, and the vote was largely due to the magnificent record made by the colored soldier in the world war.
The decision of the convention was that Negro workers should be admitted to all unions on the same basis as white workers, and that it be a recommendation to all international unions still pursuing a reactional course that they mend their ways. The extraordinary enthusiasm with which this proposal was greeted was in no small measure due to the impression made on the gathering by Delegate John Lacey, a colored man from Norfolk, Va.
Mr. Lacy spoke with earnestness and a restraint that was remarkable. He told of the indignities how colored fellow workers were forced to suffer, even faced ugly prejudices bravely.
Other colored delegates also spoke and Frank Duffy, chairman of the committee which recommended the new emancipatory proclamation, summed up. There was no more dramatic moment, however, than when Delegate Forrester, of Richmond, Va., declared for the colored workers. The significance of his uncompromising speech on their behalf, coming from a southerner thrilled the delegates.
"Until a few years ago there had been no organization worthy of the name among Negroes, while the skilled and semi-skilled trades have barred them from membership. In recent years committees from the race have repeatedly asked assistance and recognition from the Federation, but until today the influence of Southern delegates has been sufficiently-strong to prevent any substantial recognition being given them.
To this convention the colored workers presented several requests. Among other things they asked for the establishment of colored international unions, the assignment of organizers to every state where there is a large, unorganized colored population, and the detailing in Washington of an officer, preferably colored, who shall devote his time to the interest of the Negro.
MR. HOLSEY NOW PERMANENT
SECRETARY TO R. R. MOTON
(Associated Negro Press)
Tuskegee, Ala., July 1—When Mr. Emmett J. Scott was called to Washington to become the special assistant to the secretary of war, his assistant at Tuskegee, Mr. Athon L. Holsey, became the acting secretary and later the secretary to the principal. It is understood here that since Mr. Scott has resigned to become secretary-treasurer of Howard University, Mr. Holsey is to continue in his present relations to the principal.
The duties of the principal's executive secretary are many and varied. He is necessarily to handle many complex and confidential matters as well at direct and supervise the work of ten or more stenographers and clerks who constitute the working staff of the principal's office. In his annual report to the trustees, Dr. Moton says of Mr. Holsey:
"I wish to speak of the faithful painstaking service of Mr. Alton L. Holsey, who during Mr. Scott's absence in Washington has acted as secretary of the school and later as secretary to the principal. But for his excellent oversight and supervision, the work of the principal's office, as well as many other phases of the school's life, might not have gone so smoothly."
As associate editor of the Tuskegee Student, Mr. Holsey Las edited this publication since Mr. Scott went to Washington and will continue in that capacity. He is also assistant secretary of the National Negro Business League and is the Tuskegee correspondent of many daily and weekly newspapers.
Mr. Holsey was born at Athens, Ga., graduated from Knox Institute of that city and later was a student at Atlanta University.
Mrs. Holsey is at present in Savannah where she is the assistant War Camp Community Worker.

AMERICAN LEGION WORLD WAR
HEROES
All Ex-Soldiers of World War Urged To Enroll as Members
Official sanction was received in the city early this week for the organisation of a local branch of the American Legion of World War Veterans, the national organization which was formed at St. Louis, Mo., several months ago. The local organization which will be known as Victory Post No. 2, received its charter yesterday from the state chairman in Atlanta. It has the first having been issued to a post in this state to receive its charter, the first having been issued to apost in Atlanta the day prior to that on which the Savannah organization charter was issued.
It is very desirous that the local post's membership include as many men as possible who served in the world war. Every man who served the colors in the war is eligible for membership and may become affiliated with the organization upon application. It is estimated that Savannah and Chatham county sent to the neighborhood of 2,900 men to the colors during the past war and as a consequence the local post should be one of the largest and most flourishing in the state. The post has been meeting every Thursday night at St. Augustine's hall, West Broad and Gwinnett lane, and will continue to do so until its affairs have been put in proper shape.
At the meeting last night permanent officers were elected, Ex-Capt. O. C. Middleton being made commander. All ex-soldiers are requested to attend the meeting next Thursday night at 8:30 o'clock.
The other officers are: A. K. Nelson,
vice commander; Robt. Powell,

COLORED OFFICER APPPOINTED
FOR WAR RISK INSURANCE
The colored soldiers and sailors who served in the world war have a personal representative in the governments Bureau of War Risk Insurance. He is Lieut. Jay Williams Clifford, of Washington, D. C., formerly an officer in the famous Buffalo regiment, which made history in France.
The continuance of the colored service mans insurance is one of the important parts of the Bureau's work. There were 400,000 Negro soldiers and sailors in the service and they carried approximately $2,500,000,000 of War Risk Insurance. The appointment of Lieut. Clifford to look after the interests of the colored men was made because of the need for having a colored man thoroughly familiar with government insurance who would give his entire attention to the task of holding in line these 400,000 returned service men.
Lleut. Clifford will point out to the members of his race the importance of holding on to their war risk insurance as a financial protection in their old age. "Very few insurance companies insure colored people," said Lleut Clifford. "They do not insure the members of my race, even at higher premium rates. The reason for this is that the mortality rate among Negroes is higher that that among other races. This is a strong argument in favor of every colored soldier and sailor taking advantage of Uncle Sam's insurance offer.
"The Bureau of War Risk Insurance is to be maintained as a permanent institution, in recognition of the services the soldiers and sailors rendered the United States during the world war. The Government is offering the saftest and lowest cost insurance, and a protection to colored men otherwise unobtainable.
"Colored organizations throughout the country have given the Bureau valuable aid in assisting discharged service men in arranging to carry their insurance, and have volunteered to cooperate in every way possible."
"The advice of all leading colored citizens to soldiers and sailors is to keep up their government insurance. I hope every discharged service man among the Negroes will feel it his duty to write to the Bureau about his war risk insurance. He will be given aid in every way possible."
Lleut. Clifford was commissioned a first lieutenant at the Fort Des Molnes Training School and served as a line officer with the Buffalo regiment in France. He has the degree of A. B. and was engaged in school work in Washington before entering the army.

Spirit of Co-operation Being Fostered Among Farmers
McIntosh, Ga., June 23-The following is a brief account of the work of Emergency Demonstration Agent Jas. U. H. Simms, beginning Feb. 27, 1919 The first few weeks were spent in studying conditions in Liberty county, and making every possible effort to secure the co-operation of the county officials. Colored farmers were called together at various points and enlightened as to the objects, purposes and aims of Demonstration work. Many had never heard that there were farm demonstration agents, altho there had been one in the county for two years.
Seven clubs have been organized in Liberty county among adults. None was possible among school children, owing to the lateness of our beginning, and the large territory to be covered.
Since the work was new to the people, it was deemed advisable to limit the demonstrations to one crop, corn. General advice is given at the monthly meetings of clubs, and the production of more food and feed continually urged, particular attention being directed to the scarcity of hay and the high prices which farmers have to pay for it.
Although a large number of colored farmers own land, comparatively few are really farming, most of them being engaged at "public work", sawmilling, tarpentine production in its several lines, and other such work. This has been the state of things during recent years. Meanwhile, their plant small pateles of peas, rice and potatoes, with a little corn and cotton to supply their home needs, but none for the market. The war, however, and the consequent high cost of living has turned most of them back to the farm. Added to this, most of the timberland has been exhausted. They come back to the farm with little or no equipment, to the same old primitive methods.
This of Liberty. The same conditions exist in Bryan, McIntosh, and Glynn counties More and better forming is done in Evans, Tattnall and Wayne, leaving, however, great room for improvement.
In Tatnall three local clubs and an advisory board were organized. Better support is obtained here than elsewhere, to the demonstration work, and greater interest is displayed. A National Farm Loan Association was formed at Reidsville. June 21. being the first in this section among colored farmers.
The spirit of cooperation is being fostered among the people and effort made to encourage joint purchase and cooperative selling. In one transaction $196 was saved in the purchase of fertilizer material. Fertilizers, fruit trees and their diseases, along with other investigations have been made and reported to the proper authorities, as there is no county agent in Liberty county.
It is hoped that the several counties will render financial aid to the work among colored farmers, in order that the territory may be divided, making it.possible for the more particular and more highly efficient work on the part of the agent.
Tuskegee Inst. Ala.. June 28-At the last meeting of the National Negro Business League, at Atlantic City, N. J., Dr. Robert R. Moton, chairman of the executive committee, in an address proposed a three-fold plan to the members of the National League which included a thoroughly organized effort on the part of Negro newspapers to solicit national advertising and to extend their circulation. Second, a stronger organization of state and local Negro business leagues and a closer co-operation with Negro farmers in the matter of marketing farm products. Third, to establish a fund from which advances might be made to earnest, ambitious, honest young men and women in helping them to establish business enterprises. This three-fold plan was thoroughly discussed by many of the leading men present and it was decided to endeavor to translate a part, at least, of this very comprehensive plan into something concrete at the St. Louis meeting of the league this year.
Program material is being rapidly put into shape by the secretary, Dr. Emmett J. Scott and the officers of the St. Louis league have appointed the necessary committees to perfect the arrangements for the guests for the leagues meeting to be held August 13, 14 and 15.
NEGROES SEEK CHANCE TO SERVE ON JURY
Miami. Fla., July 1—Attorney R. E. S. Toomey, legal advisor and state organizer of the Negro Uplift Association, who recently headed a delegation that visited the state capital and presented to the president of the the senate and speaker of the house of representatives a memorial urging that no color line be drawn in the making up of lists for the jury service, addressed a letter to Gov. Catts in which he deplored the lack of consideration given the memorial by the state executive. To this letter Gov. Catts made reply that he had nothing to do with the disposition of the memorial by the senate or the house, but that he would endeavor to safeguard the interest of all people in Florida on a just basis.

The address to the young ladies and boys was delivered by the Rev. Father J. Mitchell, in which he congratulated them on having attained such a high standard in religious and secular education through the Sisters of Saint Francis. In concluding he said "May you always be a joy to your parents and a credit to this school and give honor to God and to your country."

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
Established 1875
BY JOHN H. DEVLAUX
Remittance must be made by Express, Post Office Money Order or Registered Letter. Advertising rates given on application.
Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Ga., as second class matter.
Conscientiously and rigorously prosecuted, the War Camp Community campaign can do big things for this community, as well because the needs here are great, as because we have here a goodly number of capable and consecrated workers who can be pressed into service by a good program.
There have been a great many good things put over in this community for the benefit of the masses of colored folk in the past few years, by the Urban League, the Business League and other civic and uplift organizations. And it is well to add that these movements have had the endorsement and support of all the forward-looking people of this city, and perhaps the only reason why all these organizations have not had an even more abundant success is due to the unfortunate lack of individual interest in public and civic affairs and in matters which advance and promote the interests of the race. This lack of public and racial interest has been due to lack of training and hence lack of vision.
With the advent of war conditions, and later with the war itself, this community was possessed by war conditions and every thing gave way for war-time campaigns and movements. There was not energy or place or means for both, and the people very gallantly and patriotically made way for those efforts which lent to winning the war. The war has been won and credit for having won it goes to all the people, military and civilian, without distinction of class or color, and without reservation
But the war is over, and the people must turn to re-establish so far as possible the economic and social equilibrium of pre-war times, eliminating from the life of the nation any elements which the experience of war times has shown to be undersirable, and preserving and incorporating such new institutions as have been found to be beneficial and necessary. We are in the period of re-habilitation and reconstruction, and we not only must assume the task for welcoming and assimilating back into the civil life of the community four millions of our men who have been away on the business of war, but we must prepare those who have not gone to weather the shock of re-adjustment.
The national government is doing, through its subordinate organizations, a wonderful work in meeting the social, economic and industrial restlessness and instability which have arisen. In scores of ways the government, assisted by hundreds of private organizations supported by the great masses of the population, has planned to meet the problems which have arisen out of the war, and the war is going along well.
The War Camp Community Service represents one of these agencies, and is perhaps the most important one of them all, because it aims at the more vital interests of the people. The problems to which it is committed embrace the economic, the social and the industrial welfare.
The program, as recently promulgated by the Savannah women, into which they have introduced the two very capable young workers who have come to our city, is such as to commend itself to the best wishes and cooperation of all the people, and all our organizations, and we shall be glad to see every man, woman and child, who has the interest of his people at heart, enlist to give every service and courtesy and consideration which it is possible to give.
A great-many people, especially the men who went away to the colors, are bound to be helped.
REGISTRATION CAMPAIGN PLAN
It has been suggested that a thoroughly systematic campaign for registration, waged within all of the organized bodies of this city, would be fraught with splendid results. It has even been suggested that in view of the growing interest of women in matters of suffrage, it would be highly effective to induce them to work through the churches, in particular, as a stimulating and compelling force upon the lettercric and indifferent men.
As outlined, informally and unofficially, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People would conduct the campaign which would last for the period of one month, say from September 1st to October 1st. An office with a clerk, working under the direction of a Committee on Registration, would be opened at some central point. A campaign of correspondence would be employed to arouse the necessary interest in the scores of organizations and among the masses of the city. Upon a basis of total membership, every club and organization would be urged to cause a certain definite number of its members to register, the particular club taking the responsibility of advancing to its registrants such money as it might require for those who have been a long time delinquent; these would be few because of the clubs at least have
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY JULY 5TH 1919
a preponderance of young men, and new who would be unable to carry their own obligations. Within each club or other organization, its own committee on registration would conduct a campaign by personal canvass, after the organization in open meeting had carefully gone over the high purposes and urgent needs for registration. Weekly reports, during the four weeks' campaign would be made by the local club committee on registration to the Central Committee on Registration. The chairman of each local club committee would be a member of the Central Committee.
The written reports of each local club canvass would be studied at the central office, at the weekly conference of the Central Committee, when such steps as would be necessary would be taken to meet such difficulties and obstacles as would arise in the interim. Written schedules and blanks for the reports by club committees would be printed and furnished by the Central Committee.
its total membership of 300 men. The County Republican organization has sent out a committee to prepare a pamphlet on "How to Register", and will conduct a campaign of instruction for all the men who may desire to know about voting and registration. It would be a tremendously encouraging and inspiring thing, if the soldiers' organisation, Victory Post No. 2, would as a first proposition, lead off this campaign for registration, by turning out a 100 per cent registration record. They, at least, need only pay their taxes in order to qualify.
The books will again be open for registration October 1st; and the campaign, just outlined, should lead up to that date as toward the highest goal of citizenship. The presidential election comes next year, and Chatham county Negroes should be ready to poll a large vote. We hope this plan will be launched immediately and vigorously and pushed to a successful climax by October 1st.

A COLLEGE that has its students devote one half of their time to actual useful work is so in line with common sense that we are amazed that the idea had to be put in execution by an ex-slave as a lifesaver for his disfranchised race. Our great discoveries are always accidents: we work for one thing and get another. I expect that the day will come, and ere long, when the great universities of the world will have to put the Turkesege idea into execution in order to save themselves from being distanced by the Colored Race. —Elbert Hulbert

ESTATE. LEFT NEGRO MYSTERIOUSLY. DISAPPEARS (Associated Negro Press)
Stanford, Conn, July 1—An administrator has just been asked for the estate of Miss Charlotte C. Wardlow, a spinster, who died at the State Hospital for Insane last September. Miss Wardlow executed a will leaving all her property to William T. Harris, her Negro servant. The estate was said to be worth $500,000. In some mysterious manner much of the property has disappeared, and the authorities are investigating.

GREEN—In memory of my loving mother, Mrs. Addie E. Green, who departed this life July 5, 1918.
None who e'er knew her can believe her dead;
Though, should she die, they deem it well might be
Her spirit took its everlasting flight
In summer's glory, by the sunset sea,
That onward through the golden gate is fled,
Ah, where that bright soul is cannot be night.
Her loving daughter.
Laurie N. Green.
WILSON—In memory of our dear one, Morris Wilson, who departed this life July 4, 1918, at the age of 52.
Dear as thou wert, and justly dear,
We would not weep for thee.
One thought shall check the starting tear.
It is that thou art free.
And thus shall faith's consoling power,
The tears of love restrain.
Oh who that saw thy parting hour,
Could wish you here again?
Triumphant in thy closing eye,
The hope of glory shown;
Joy breathed in thy expiring sigh,
To think the race was run.
Gently the passing spirit fled,
Sustained by grace divine;
Oh may such grace on us be shed,
And make our end like thine.

Mrs. Chara Wilson.

LOYD—In sad but loving memory of our dear mother, Ida Lovd, who departed this life July 4, 1917.
Two years have passed since that sad day.
When one we loved was called away;
God called her home, it was His will
But in our hearts she liveth still.
We often think of days gone by.
When we were all together,
A shadow over our life is cast.
A loved one gone forever.
How hard it was to part
With one we loved so dear.
The heart no greater trials know,
No sorrow more severe.
What pleasant hour once enjoyed.
How sweet their memory still;
But it has left an aching void
Which never can be filled.
We often sit and think of her
When we are all alone.
For memory is the only friend.
That grief can call its own.
Friends may thing the wound is lealed
But little do they know the sorrow
That lies wil in our hearts concealed

SANDERS—In memory of Mr. William Henry Sanders, my only son, who departed this life July 3, 1918. This one thought comes to us. One long year ago thy precious soul took flight and all that was dear to us bad gone, save the sweetest memory of one who in life was so gentle and affectionate, so kind and truthful, so humble and sincere. But thy memory is sweet and will ever serve to guide us through life. So often have we wished for the power to call you back to the ones who loved you, and yet in the re-echoing sounds from the ball of time there comes to us the thought I here thee say:
When the knell rung for the dying Soundeth for me,
And my course coldly is lying.
Neath the green tree;
When the turf, strangers are heaping
Covers my breast,
Come not to gaze on me weeping,
WORKING HOMES
I am at rest.
All my life happy and joyfully,
The days have gone by;
I who dreamed wildly and madly,
Am willing to die;
Dear loved one my heart hath been
breaking,
Its pain is all past;
A term has been set to its aching
Peace comes at last.
Sleep on, dear one, until God call us
to you.

Through its vales sweet waters glide
Just beyond the river Jordan,
Just across its chilling tide.
There is a land of life eternal
Through its vales sweet waters glide
By the crystal flowing river
Grows the tree of life so fair;
My loved one walts my coming.

I shall meet you some bright morning.
Resting by the waters fair;
We shall then be reunited.
In the upper garden there.

SIMUEL—In sad but sweet remembrance of my devoted father, David Simuel of Beaufort, S. C., who departed this life July 5, 1914.
He was one we loved so dearly,
With a tenderness of heart so true;
It was only five years ago so true,
But father we'll never, forget you.
Your sorrows on earth have been ended
No cares can beset your way,
And though the years pass swiftly,
It seems it was just yesterday.
The beneath the sod you are sleeping
And know naught of sorrow or pain,
There comes a joy to keep us from weeping.
For some day will see you again.

Col. Wm. Hayward and Mrs. B. B. Munford Elected Board Members
New York City—The National Urban League held its regular quarterly meeting here Tuesday, June 17th, at the Russell Sage Foundation building. The out of town members in attendance were Dr. James H. Dillard, of Charlotte-ville, Va., and Miss Nannie Burroughs, of Washington, D. C., L. Holling-worth, president, presided.
Mrs. V. G. Simkhvitch, director of Greenwich House and Miss Nannie Burroughs, president of the National Training School, Washington, D. C., were interesting and helpful participants at this, their first meeting with the Executive Board.
Fire "Fellows," accepted for training for league work since the last meeting were approved by the board: William Evans, graduate of Fisk University, with several years experience as teacher and later as supervising architect and E. Champ Warrick, graduate of the University of Wisconsin in training in connection with the Chicago Urban League; Abram L. Simpson, recently returned from overseas, a graduate of Wilberforce, student at the University of Chicago and a teacher at Morris Brown College; Howard C. Gregg, this year's graduate from Yale University and Dr. Arthur D. Browns, recently returned from overseas, formerly a physician of Atlanta, Ga., who has decided to enter a larger field of social service are in training in New York City.
Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary, reported the organization of Urban Leagues in Boston and Milwaukee. He reported the following conferences attended: the Department of Labor in Washington, the New York City Conference of Charities and Corrections, the Southern Sociological Congress in Knoxville, the Conference on Minimum Standard of Child Welfare in New York, and the National Conference of Social Work at Atlantic City.
From the local fields. Negro Health Campaigns were conducted in almost every city. The Detroit Urban League has established a Settlement House as a part of its activities and has been instrumental in having a colored man appointed on the Mayor's Commission. The Chicago Urban League has now a Children's Department and an Industrial Organizer for the Northwest. Memphis has raised $95,000 for the establishment of a community center. and for conducting welfare activities. the Urban League co-operating in the movement.
The educational and industrial work of the bague received special attention from the board and recommendations of great significance were adopted. One of the most important of these was the authorization of the Executive Secretary to employ a national organizer, an organizer for the northern field and one for the southern field, as soon as suitable men can be found. The board approved the following recommendations from the National Steering Committee:
1. That the executive board act favorably on the recommendations from the conference of Executives and Executive Board members at the Atlantic City conference during the National Conference of Social Work—that an Urban league conference on industrial matters be held early in October to which social workers—white and colored—from all parts of the country, representing all organizations be invited.
2. That the board agree to the request of the social workers at Atlantic City that the league act as a clearing house in an effort to get more representation at different conference sessions of the National Conference of Social Work and that a special effort be made to secure proper accommodations and consideration of Negro delegates at the New Orleans Conference port June.
It was also decided to request the joint committee which had conference with the Executive Council of the American Federation of Labor to continue its negotiations to aid in carrying out the plans of the Federation to organize Negro working men. The members of this joint committee are: Dr. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee Inst., John R. Shillady, of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age; Azebibald Grimke, Washington, D.C. National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Emmett J. Scott, of the War Department; Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of the Phelps Stoke Fund; Dr. James H. Dillard, of the Slater Fund; Dr. George C. Hall, of the Chicago Urban League; Ingene Kinckle Jones, of the National Urban League.
FLAG DESIGNED FOR
NEGROES OF THE WORLD
(Associated Negro Press)
Dr. boster, N. Y., July 1—Staroona
Williams, with whom originated the
movement to petition the government
to confer upon the Negroes of the
country the privilege of naming one
of the world war battleships, of the
navy, in recognition of the work of
the Negroes in the world, war, bus
designed a flag for the Negroes of the
world.
Mr. William's says he believes that
the one thing the Negroes lack to make
them a unit throughout the world is
racial cohesion, and he believes that
a flag will have that effect.
The flag has a black field, denoting the dark continent of Africa, and a gold star in the upper right hand corner represents the kingdom of Abhysinia. In the upper left corner is a crimson star, representing the blood which has been shed by the Negroes of the Congo Free States, and in the two lower corners are two blue stars, representing the republics of Haiti and Liberia. In the center of the flag is a white cross, which Mr. Williams says is symbolic of the sufferings and hope of the 1724,000,000 Negroes in the world.
Mr. Williams says he has applied for a patent to cover his design and that he has forwarded a flag to each of the countries named, including two places in America that are governed by Negroes. Brooklyn, Ill., and Mound Bayon, Miss.

NEW ON TIME RECORD
New high records for on-time passenger train service in the Southern Region were set in May by the railroads under government control. Reports made public today by the United States Railroad Administration show that of nearly fifty thousand trains operated during the month by twenty-eight roads, 95.3 per cent maintained their schedules. This topped the April record of 54.3., which was believed to represent a bitherto unequalled performance.
Such service was made possible by enthusiastical individual effort and team work among the railroad men, stimulated by competition among the different roads. For months special attention has been given to the passenger train performance, with the purpose of making it generally as nearly 100 per cent perfect as possible. Thru the Regional Director's office, each line has kept informed of what the others were doing, and a spirited race for supremacy has resulted.
For seventeen larger roads, operating 47,403 trains, the May on-time record was 94.4 per cent, compared with 94.6 in April. The eleven smaller roads maintained an average of 95.2 compared with 94.2 in April. Only one of the larger lines fell below 91 per cent. One of the smaller group, the Macon, Dublin & Sarannah, accomplished the extraordinary feat of sending every one of its 14 trains through on schedule. The Central of Georgia Railroad led all the rest in Group A which comprised the larger lines in the southern region. This railroad operated during month of May. 2,912 trains, 8,877, or 97.4 per cent, arrived at final terminal on time: 2,878 trains, or 98.4 per cent maintained schedule or made up time.
