NUMBER 44 Boyd Faction Scores Victory Baptist Fight COURT SAYS MORRIS FACTION NO CLAIM Fight Came After Split in Chicago Four Years Ago Word was received in the city yesterday by the Tribune that the fight which the Morris faction of the Baptists was waging for membership on the board of the Baptist Publishing House of Nashville, Tenn., controlled by the Boyd faction, has been decided in favor of the latter, the judge handing down a decision Thursday in which he says the Morris people have no claim to membership on the board. The following is the telegram received: "In a decision, handed down by the chancery court yesterday, R. H. Boyd and his board members scored another victory over the Morris faction when the court decided that the Morris people had no claim in membership to the National Baptist Publishing board, Judge Cherry acting as chancery judge, handed down the decision. The litigation came after the split in Chicago and the Morris people for four years have tried to oust the Boyd people from the Publishing board, but this decision of the court sustains the Boyd and Jones faction contention. Nockville, Globe." THE PHYLLIIS WHEATLEY PLAY- GROUND ASSIN OF YANAGRA GROUND ASSN. OF YAMACRAW The Phyllis Wheatley Play ground Association of Yamacraw was organized Wednesday night at the club house of the Georgia Home Boys, Fahm and Congresss Streets. This association will have charge of the raising of funds for the establishing of a play ground in Yamacraw, at Fahm and Indian Streets. Every member of this organization except one, lives within the area bounded by West Broad, W. Boundary, River, and New Streets. While membership is restricted more or less to this area, every section of the city is invited to take an active part in the raising of enough money to operate the grounds. The present goat is $500.00, to set up apparatus, fence in and pay for a play leader for at least six months. There has never been a more worry cause presented to our people for our people. Wholesome play for these children means better health, better morals, fewer delinquents and a better race. Speeches on race development have been so frequent and thorough, that it is fair to estimate the average man as being well inspired and standing ready to help the race in any way seeming practical. Without doubt, this seems one of the few opportunities for individuals and organizations to see the race grow bigger and better by the help of generous contributions. The Tribune and the Journal will receive donations from organizations, business concerns and individuals, who find either place convenient. The list of donors will be published regularly. There will be a house to house canvass of Yamacraw and of other sections of the city if necessary. Phyllis Wheatley solicitors will have a printed leaflet, signed by the president of the association. The public is cautioned to give money to no one else presenting themselves as representatives of this organization. The officers elected last Wednesday night are: President, Mr. Frank Callen V.

NEGRO RECEIVES VERDICT FOR $200 DA FOR $200 DAMAGE Spokane, Wash, July 8—Holding that a Negra has the right to sit in any part of the theatre to which the admission price entitles him, a jury in superior Judge Hunkes court this afternoon returned a verdict of $200 damages for S. S. Moore, colored, against the Pantages theatre company. The judgment is of widespread importance, for it means that Negroes cannot be segregated from whites in any place of public amusement in the state of Washington. The jury deliberated only an hour and a half Monday evening before determining the verdict which was returned, sealed today. Of the twelve jurors, eleven declared the $200 judgment was their verdict. Martin Johnson of Cheney replied in the negative. "I wanted the damages to be $1,000 at first," said Mr. Johnson. "I dropped to $500, but did not agree with the $200 verdict. I did not think that was enough. "All of us were for damages from the start," said Jas. Hammel, another juror. "All declared that even if a man were black he had the right to sit where he wanted to. We figured though, that $200 was enough balm, for Moors' humiliation. Moore sued the "Pan" for $5,000. According to testimony he appeared at the theatre September 15. The usher requested him to take a seat in the second balcony, stating it was the custom of the theatre to put Negroes there. Moore objected and left. He claimed the $5,000 for embarrassment and humiliation: F. W. Girand and Charles Aten were his attorneys. George Armiage was attorney for the theatre company. Brunswick, Ga., July 9—F. J.

Johnson has been before the United States and municipal courts so many times for so many different alleged intractions of the law that he has reached the point where he considers himself competent to manage his own case, and the manner in which he handled the case today shows he has a pretty clear knowledge of the status, especially in the matter of laying the foundation for introduction of testimony.

Reed was conducted by the pastor, beginning at 3 p.m. The auditorium was filled to overflowing, so that quite a number were compelled to use the gallery. The funeral sermon by the pastor was indeed inspiring. The deceased was the chorister of both the church and the Sunday School choirs, which places he has filled for twenty five years. He was also class leader and trustee. Mr. J. B. Moultrie, the assistant chorister made quite a timely cology. Miss Meta Galloway sang, "Some Sweet Day," and the Sunday School sang, "The Setting Sun," which has always been a favorite song of the deceased. Mr. Jesse Brinson, the superintendent of the Sunday School presented resolutions. Mr. J. S. Perry presented resolutions for the trustees. Mrs. Brown presented resolutions for the Senior choir and Mr. J. Prince sang a solo on behalf of the junior choir. Rev. N. Bemby was present, and made a few timely remarks. The Sunday School was suspended as a token of respect. A splendid session of the choir was held at 7 a.m. Mrs. Newman was seated in the choir, was present in a few days, Waco, Texas, where she has been attending the National Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Convention. The Sunday School picnic on July 7th proved quite a success. BETH EDEN BAPTIST CHURCH Services were largely attended Sunday in spite of the intensely warm weather. Rev. Clark preached, from the subject, "In Christ' Stead" in the morning, and in the afternoon. Miss Sadie Loyd, one of our most faithful members was buried from the church. This service was very touching and impressive. At night the tribe of Gad, under Mrs. Sarah Young, made its report, which was very creditable as usual. The sermon to this tribe was, "The Big Gad." Services tomorrow as usual. FIRST A. B. CHURCH Services for the past week were very good, with large attendances. Dr. Taylor of Brunswick preached at 11:30 a.m. The sermon was beautiful, and much comment was made as to the impressiveness of it. Dr. Cannon preached at S p. m. The sermon was indeed practical as well as spiritual. Dr. Cannon seemed at his best. We enjoyed having these visitors with us. On Fri day night, Dr. P. James Bryant, of Atlanta lectured. There was a chorus of fifty voices, under the direction of Mrs. T. J. Goodall that furnished music for the occasion. Sunday School met at the usual hour, with lesson review by the superintendent. B.

Visitors and strangers are cordially invited to attend all of these services. SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH Last Sunday, the various services thru out the day were both interesting and well attended. Rev. D. W. Cannon, of Atlanta, occupied the pulpit at the 11a clock hour and preached an eloquent sermon to a large audience, and it was listened to with keen delight. At the conclusion of this service, the pastor presented the mortgage papers, and notes against the church for debts were taken up on the 10th of July. The church is now practically out of debt, owing only a few dollars for current expenses, and a few dollars to a few of its help. The pastors, officers and members are delighted with conditions and the present outlook. When Mr. W. S. Roundfield, superintendent of the Sunday School, informed the Sunday School that the most important details relative to the outing at Pennyworth Rose Garden on August 6th were completed, the children of the primary grades could scarcely conceal their delight. Both church, and school are anticipating a happy time on that day. Order of services tomorrow as usual. Program of the TWENTY EIGHTH ANNIVERSARY Of the First A. B.

THE NEGRO IN BIG BUSINESS If any one bus doubted that the day of the Negro in big business, Las arrived, he needs only to look around about him for safety, a point to dispense all his doubts. The public opinion has for many conceded the Negro's ability to need as an aid to mankind but has been unwilling and reluctant to admit that he could serve with cooperative enterprise to any particular extent. In other words, there existed the belief that Negroes lacked the capacity for big business operations, lacked the disposition to work together harmoniously, and lacked the necessary mutual business confidence and respect. After a long period of struggle through learning the elements of cooperative enterprise and endeavor, we have reached the days, when, here and there, the country over, strong and respectable cooperative business movements are springing up. Negro banking institutions, Negro insurance companies, Negro manufacturing enterprises, all, make ample proof of the change which has come about. Many conspicuous examples in each of these lines stand out as splendid memoirs to the enterprise, industry, courage and high business character of Negro pioneers in business. Negro business institutions have advanced to the point where their business interests and connections extend beyond the contines of city and state, and many are of national, and a few are international in their scope. These are unmistakable evidences of the Negro's self consciousness and his increasing power of self expression in the avenues of business. Herein lies the principal significance and importance of racial discovery. Of course as we argued in these columns two weeks ago, the best possible principles and background against which to pitch the struggle of the Negro for a right to opportunity and a fair play are economic and material, and alas, the effort to rise is coming to be well founded there. The purchase this week by the Wago Earners Savings Bank interests of the remaining portions of a whole block of West Broad Street realty, running their total holdings up to above two hundred thousand ($200,000) dollars is as significant of the forward trend toward the "big things" in commerce and industry, as it is earnest of the spirit of racial self-consciousness and self-assertion. Moreover, the tremendous plan which is contemplated by the promoters, involving the building up of the entire block in accordance with a principal idea of establishing within a single group of business houses, a varied and complete line of Negro business enterprises, including besides the bank, a real estate business, office rooms, a hotel, a theatre and a department store, besides other business. It is an ingenious thought and project to establish such a splendid array of enterprises, so necessary and so serviceable, so worthy and so representative of the possibilities which lie in the years before us. It has not been long since dealing in big money was a rare thing in Negro business affairs; but the vision of a few of the greater minds in Negro business begins to embrace the field of big venture and real advancement It is gratifying and inspiring that a Savannah Institute, founded in Savannah, and on Savannah money, should so stand out as a pioneer and a leader in these "big-things" of the new day in Negro business. An institution, so found ed on the broad ground of racial uplift, racial advancement and racial selfassertion, will continue to get the loyal and united cooperation of. the whole people because it so richly deserves it by merit. HIGH MORTALITY, 191S The annual report of the City Health officer submitted this week, shows, the Negro half of the city's population up very unfavorably as compared with the white. Out of a total number of deaths reported of 1728, the number of colored was 1155 or 66.8 per cent. the white being 573 or 35.2 per cent. To put it plainly, these figures mean that during 1918, two Negroes died to every white person. In number of births reported, the whites numbered 797 or 52.6 per cent, while the Negro numbered 718 or 47.4 per cent out of a total of 1515. It is unusual also that the total number of deaths exceeded the number of births. The poor slowing of the city health last year was due, of course to the influenza epidemic, but the relatively poorer showing made by colored people does us little credit when the "blue" is regarded as a disease particularly peculiar to white people. Poor housing, poor economic conditions, lack of intelligent care of person and premises and lack of necessary physical services, medicines and foods are probably the leading causes as formerly. Negro leaders and organizations need to put into operation in their immediate communities some systematic camouflage for improving the conditions which bring about these results. The United Sons of Georgia of New York City entertained on Wednesday night of last week in honor Mr. and Mrs. John A. Battise of Savannah, Ga., and Mrs. Rena Smith of Jacksonville, Fla., at Progressive Hall, 120 W. 136th St. Mr. Joseph Eaves, president of the club, acted as toast master, and Mr. Ed R. Collins was speaker of the evening. Mr. Prince Randall rendered a selection, "Some Day When Dreams Come True," and Mr. Chas. Smith sang, "Dear Old Pal of Mine." The occasion was a pleasant one, with a delightful supper being served at 11 oclock. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Battise and Mrs. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Singleton, Mr. and Mrs. Prince Randall, Mrs. Frances Williams, Mrs. Minnie Pittman, Overton, Mrs. Stella Mason Tyler, Mrs. Willis, Mrs. Bradley, Mrs. Hattie Fisher, Miss Alma Good, Miss Willie Bowman, Messr.

Omaha, Neb., July 15—Testifying in District Court in the suit of his son-in-law for annulment of marriage on the ground of Negro blood in his veins Douglass B. McCarry, former cashier of the Capitol Savings Bank of Washington, D. C., of which John R. Lynch was president, denied, in his testimony on the witness stand, that he had Negro blood, or that his father or mother were Negroes or of Negro delineation, McCarry's testimony brought to a dramatic close the trial of thesiut of Francis P. Dwyer of this city, for annulment of marriage on the ground that his wife. Clara McCarry-Dwyer was of least one eighth Negro blood, which under a Nebraska statue is sufficient for annulment; and that he was unaware of the fact until so informed by a physician, following the birth, of a child. Dwyer testified on the witness stand that they were married in the Catholic Church: in 1916 after a courtship of a year during which time he did not see his wife's father. When informed at the birth of the baby, by a doctor that the baby had colored blood, he said. 35¢ NATURAL ROUGE DARLING Hair ROUGE POBESSED "REMARKABLE" BEAUTIFYING PROPER TIES KEY ABSOLUTELY HARMLESS.

J., July 15—Among the delegates in attendance at the National Conference of Social Work here are many Negroes, men and women. They sat with the white delegates, and conferred with them'upon matters of common interest as well as those of peculiar importance to the Negroes. One of the interesting features at a meeting devoted to a discussion of the Negro problems was a statement of a white woman from San Antonio, Texas that in her part of the state, the Negro was coming into his own. He was being provided with better educational facilities and was able to go into business and buy land on the same terms as white men. A white man, a native of S. Carolina, who had been in China for six years, said that on his return he had talked with a Negro friend about conditions. This Negro had said that what the Negroes of the South wanted was an out and out voice from the pulpits against lawlessness; no taxation without representation; abolition of legalized robbery in the use of the school funds; the removal of discrimination, such as that the Negro encounters in traveling. Many of the Negro delegates protested vehemently in segregation of any sort. One said, it was worse when practiced in the north than in the south, for while the south, contrary to the general opinion, does not understand the Negro, it often has an affection for him. In particular, housing conditions were complained of. Negroes are compelled to live in discomfort, and worse, because they are not admitted to good neighborhoods. They want admission to the schools, to the settlements to the neighborhood club houses on the same conditions as the whites of varying nationalities. They want to work on equal terms with the whites.
