Governor To Probe Riot Trouble
Governor To Probe Riot Trouble
NEGRO OFFICERS RENDERED VAL
LANT SERVICE DURING RIOTS
Reforms to Follow Investigation Lik-
ely to Make Chicago Better City
(Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Negro — What it is hop-
pable be an everlasting flag of truce.
This been raised by the "Race War in
Chicago." The "pong of Hate" was
never more bitterly rendered on either
side, but while the entire community
gets the discredit, the singing on both
sides has been by the minority and not
the majority. And to continue, the
people thing has been a series of hailing
discourse. Many things have been
learned; and often should prompt it,
born for Chicago and every other
city in the nation.
Every record shows the indefputable fact that the whites, both in deaths and wounded, rated somewhat worse than the colored people. It demonstrates beyond question a "do or die" spirit on the part of the blacks, which is by no means pleasant to contemplate. It subjects of racial friction are not smoothed out.
While the battle raged, it was a fifty-fifty proposition absolutely, in the white districts and the so called "black belt." No black face had a ghost of a chance in the white district, and by the same token, no white face had a chance in the belt. There was no discrimination on either side, in this respect.
So seriols did conditions become that after the fourth day, the people in the "black belt" found themselves without food. Union drivers, white, refused to go beyond the "dead line", speaking literally. Indeed. At last, a plan was worked out by which food in great trucks was taken to certain appointed districts by whites, and then driven on through by colored chauffers. For the next time in the history of Chicago, a colored man in the great business "Loop District" was an actual novelty, gazed upon with kindness, credulity, hatred and fear, according to the people passed. Dozen were run, at least three murdered, and a number beaten up.
Never before had the "color of a man's skin" played such an important part in locomotion. There is an amusingly, inter-tingling condition with reference to this. The real light colored person had both his advantages and disadvantages. There are numbers of instances where real light colored people went where they desired in the "Loop" without mole-tatton, but as soon as they attempted to get into the "Pelt" their lives were in peril.
The patrol wagons and big motor trucks were used to transfer hundreds of Colored workers to their work. More than 1,500 men and women are employed in the Post Office, and Postmaster Carlisle threatened to put in a call for Federal troops if the mails were interfered with to any serious extent.
The street car strike in Chicago added to the general confusion, although the men did not resort to violence in their efforts to reach their demands.
The attitude of the police officers and the public calls is one that has caused considerable comment. Mayor Thompson-on and Gov. Lowden each were out the job constantly, but it is claimed by many that politics entered in to the delay of ordering the troops into action before the fourth day of the riot. Governor Lowden saw several Colored men chased through the business district from the windows of his hotel, the Blackstone on Michigan Boulevard. From many sources it is claimed that the police failed to give the proper protection to colored people, and they did not arrest whites who were known to be "gum toting" with the same alacrity that they did Negroes. Many of the police, however, were courteous and virulent.
The Colored policemen, of which there are about 200 in Chicago, and the colored detectives, rendered vallant service, and proved their ability to cope with a dangerous and delicate situation in a manner that reflects great credit. There has been no criticism with
reference to the content of the article.
The daily newspapers have played an important part with reference to the quelling riots. There are in Chicago, six leading English speaking newspapers. All of them devoted much space to the news of the riot, but the Chicago Herald and Examiner, Chicago American owned by William Randolph Heath, and the Chicago Daily News, owned by Victor Lawson, reached the highest plane of unattainted and unvanished justice in their news, cartoons and editorials. The Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Evening Post, both lad editorials, advocating segregation of the races, either by impression or by fact. Added to this, was a statement issued by B. F. Holsey, an attorney disbarred for life, in which he claimed that the white man is the superior of the Negro, and this is a "white man's country." This statement has brought down the wrath of the community on Mosley. The Chicago Journal has been inclined to be neutral.
The Alderman L. B. Anderson and R. R. Jackson, the majority of the ministers, Mrs. Ida B. Wells Barnett, Rev. A. J. Carey, Jesse Binga, and several others demonstrated efforts of leadership that caused favorable comment, Oscar DePriest, former alderman, seems to have come out of the fray with the greatest amount of credit to his name as a fearless leader.
In many respects there has been much disappointment with reference to many who have posed as community leaders, "In the hour of trial," they were weighed in the balance and found
MISS C. O. MEDOWELL
RECEIVES APPOINTMENT
Will Have Charged War Camp Community Work at Houston, Tex.
Miss Cornelia O. McDowell who left the city several weeks ago for Washington, D. C., where she was called to enter War Camp community training classes, has been appointed to Houston, Tex. at which place she reported for work at the latter part of the week. The course which Miss McDowell finished consumed about three weeks after which she was one of the few to be given the privilege, at government expense, of the additional recruitment course.
E.
Miss McDowell who is a teacher in the local public schools, is the second daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth McDowell of Park Ave. cast, and for several years has had charge of the Urban League work in Yannacaw. Miss McDowell will return to the city in the fall to resume her school duties.
PORO AGENTS MEETING
The agents of the Poro System, set up by Madam Freeman, are requested to meet at her parlor. Friday night, August 15, at 9 ccklow for the purpose of a review of the system.
A notable meeting of colored farmers of Liberty county as enabled in the Hinesville county house Tuesday. The meeting was called at the instance of Demonstration Agent V. L. H. Sims. It was the first meeting of the recently appointed advisory board of the county of which the Rev. S. M. Walker of Ludowell is chairman and the Rev. J. W Holloway of Dorchester Academy is secretary.
Among the visitors present was the state supervising agent of farm demonstration: Engene A. Williams. Mr. Williams delivered the principal address of the day, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all present and which gave much encouraging advice. Another address of much moment was that of the county school superintendent. The clerk of the superior court, Mr. J. R. Daniels, member of the Board of Education, and cashier of the Liberty Bank. Such an address, however, as was delivered by Prof. Williams Ipser never before been heard in Liberty County. The impression was profound—to such an extent that white officials present are addressing the state authorities in the interest of his return to speak again at a mass meeting of the farmers and citizens the first Tuesday in September. The county commissioners made on the spot an appropriation to assist in carrying on the work.
wanting, and missing.
The attorney general, the county prosecutor, and special grand juries, with hundreds of detectives and secret service men, are at work, running down the guilty hoodlums who are responsible for the orge of blood, murder and fire. Mayor Thompson, in a public statement, claimed that the calling out of the troops frustrated an organized attempt to burn the entire South Side district. It is claimed by eyewitnesses that much of the damage by the whites was done by Southerners who had been sent to Chicago from some mysterious source in order to besmirch Chicago's fair name. At least two of those have already been given heavy fines and jail sentences by Chicago judges, one a certain Richardson, the judge calling him a "typical rioter."
Governor Lowden has arranged to appoint a commission of people from both races to make a careful study of conditions and work out some plan of co-operation. An attempt was made to appoint a commission last legislative term, but the bill was deferred by ur legislators on the ground of "class legislation."
The tremendous influx of people from the South during the last two years has undoubtedly made an acute problem for Chicago, as all other northern cities. While the majority of these are industrious, naturally an idle shiftless element has also come. This element lives on its wits, and there is much bitterness expressed about the gambling that has been going on. in the district. A score or more organizations, including the large churches, the Urban League and the Y. M. C. A. and W. Y. W. C. A. have been working for adjustment, and while they have expended thousands of dollars, they could use thousands more in the vitally necessary work. It is believed by all thoughtful people a newer and better Chicago will rise out of the ruins of the great Chicago fire. Chicago has the greatest economic need for the Negro.

DR, SHEPPARD URGING
GETTER NEGRO SCHOOLS
(By N. Barrett Dousson)
The need of better schools, longer terms and better qualified teachers for the rural district schools of the South is being emphasizes by Dr. James E. Shepard, president of the National Training School at Durham, N. C.
Dr. Shepard is making his summer speaking tour through parts of the South and West which will conclude the first week in August. He contends that our race is not getting its share of either state or federal funds for education to which it is entitled and that much of the unrest among the members of the race at the South is due almost solely to the lack of adequate educational facilities for their children.
The above condition, coupled with the lynching habit, segregation and disfranchisement is no doubt entirely responsible for the continued exodus of our people from the South.
While Dr. Shepard is doing all he can for the National Training School he is also working to create a sense of equal justice and fair play for the country schools among those persons who handle the funds and who in a large measure are responsible for the poorly equipped schools and school houses in the rural districts. One of the chief aims of the National Training School is to prepare teachers, preachers and social workers for service among the masses of the race in the South.
While we recognize and revere our national standards, flag and laws which in themselves are supposed to protect all the citizens of this country alike, yet, every race or nationality here has its leaders to look after their interests in the body politic. We must have ours and they must be prepared to handle with intelligence and diplomacy problems that confronts the race.
Dr. Shepard is a leader who stand for and contends for every right for our people guaranteed by laws of state and nation to the citizens of any other race. In his public speeches now he is advocating that the right to vote be no longer denied us by the unlawful methods and practices of southern states. The colored race will rise in proportion to its ability to educate, contend for equal justice, uphold the law, be thrifty, co-operate along all lines of usefulness, fight the lyncher to a finish and refuse to die alone.

SATURDAY AUGUST 9.1919
President Largest Negro Insurance Dead
JOHN MERRICK DIED AT DURHAM
WEDNESDAY NIGHT
Was Founder of North Carolina Mu-
tual Insurance Company
John Merrick, president and founder of the North Carolina Mutual and President of Lennie Company, died Wednesday night at Daugnau, N.C., after a short illness. Mr. Merrick was one of the most prominent Negro business men in the country and his death will be greatly lamented by Negroes in every section of the country.
Mr. Merrick was about 70 years old and went to Durham when a more boy. For several years he ran a boot black stand there and finally opened a barbershop, conducting also several pool rooms in connection with his barber business. These businesses presented to him the great possibility of the industrial insurance field. About twenty years ago, therefore, he launched an insurance company which took the name of the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Insurance Association. The venture was something new and untried to Negroes and operated in the year of a one store house. The concern had hard sailing for the first two years. Finally, as the advantage of this kind of insurance became more and more apparent to Negroes, Merrick's company began to grow by leaps and bounds until eventually it became not only the biggest Negro insurance company in the Tar Heel state but the largest in the country.
At the end of its score of years, a period in the history of the company which was observed in Durham two months ago with the coming together of the thousands of agents and district managers of the company from all over the South, the official statements issued by the company showed that it had $20,000,000 worth of insurance in force and that its assets had passed the half million dollar mark. The company has branches in ten states and employs more than one thousand agents and other representatives. Its income for 1910 is estimated at $1,250,000. It bought more Liberty Bonds and other war securities than Negro company in the country. Its Liberty Bond holdings alone reaching $101,000,00. The company has a branch here, under the management of W. J. Kennedy, which is one of its largest branch offices.
Mr. Merrick has been in Savannah several times, his visit here about four years ago being the occasion for a brilliant banquet tendered the distinguished visitor by the local branch of the National Negro Business League. Mr. Merrick was one of the wealthiest Negroes of North Carolina and was connected with all of the big Negro business enterprises in Durham. He was a man greatly admired by all classes of his people, and numerous were his acts of charity. He was an ardent officer and worker in the A. M. E. church. Aside from his wife he is survived by two sons, one an official of the insurance company which he founded, the other a real estate dealer, and three daughters.
The funeral was held yesterday afternoon at Durham, being attended by many out-of-town persons, among them Mr. W. J. Kennedy of this city.

G. H. BROWN SPILS HALF
BLOCK ON WEST
G. H. Bowen, the real estate dealer, pulled off a big deal Wednesday when he sold to Mr. Sam Goldberg the half block on the west side of West Broad street, extending from Waldburg street to Bolton lane. The price paid for the property was not disclosed but it is understood that it was a fancy one. A deal for another half block on West Broad in the vicinity of the one just sold is now about to be closed by Mr. Bowen.
100,000 MEN IN UNIFORM ROYALLY ENTERTAINED Only Colored Women's Motor Corps in World Visits Soldiers New York, August 8—The only colored, women's motor corps in the world is that of the Hayward Unit, a branch of the National League for Women's Service in New York City. If you can imagine the feeling of a man in the desert, coming unexpectedly upon an oak, you will appreciate the surprise and joy of colored soldiers, lying wounded in New York hospitals, at sight of women of their own race to comfort and cheer them as they had often seen their white brothers visited by other members of the League.
While the work of the Hayward Unit may not be as extensive or as far teaching as that of other departments in point of personal service and results accomplished it is excelled by some, "Lodge some Louisiana," lying on a # in the big ward at Debarkation Hospital No. 3, brightens visibly at approach of Seventeen Pearl Murry, and when she mentions that "some of
boys are going up to see a ball game this afternoon," and asks him to join the party, his exclamation of pleasure sounds as though he had forgotten it about being sick.
There is no reason why a colored boy should feel lonely or neglected in New York. And judging by the number who have been entertained by the motor corps, there exists only satisfaction and happy memories for the colored convalescent when he leaves for his home town. Of the hundred thousand and men welcomed by the Harward Unit, the majority are natives of Georgia, Alabama, Missouri, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Tennessee.
Forty members of the motor corps devote a large part of their time to the soldiers. With Captain Sadie Leavelle directing, Lt. Mae Kemp, Sergeants Murray and Anna Reid head of the organization.
Three ambulances, two buses and a dozen cars owned by members are used in the transportation service. Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, a member of the National League, donated three motors for the use of the Hayward Unit. Every day the trim khaki colored ambulances may be seen standing in front of hospital entrances, ready for a load of convulsions to be taken to the races at Sheephead or Jamaica, to a baseball game at the Polo Grounds, or on a "seeing New York tour"
Chinatown, the Ghetto, Wall Street, Riverside Drive, and Coney Island are interesting sights for the boy who has never before crossed the Mason and Dixon line. There is no form of recreation that the colored boy enjoys more than to see the largest city in the world, and to have its wonders pointed out to him. Debarkation Hospital No. 5, Polyclinic, and the Messiah Home for Shell Shocked men, contribute hundreds of soldiers weekly to these trips. Officials of the hospitals are pleased with the convalescence; they declare with the arrangement as an aid to that with new thoughts to occupy the minds of the patients, their work is greatly facilitated. Moreover, we are secure in the knowledge that their charges will have no further care will be enjoyed the outings, that they will be brought back on time, and that there is no danger of insults.
The Hayward Unit maintains headquarters at No. 200 West 130th Street. Comfortable rest rooms for reading writing and relaxation are provided, and a fine piano, player piano, and Vietroa are placed at the disposal of visiting soldiers.
Sunday planks in the courtyard popular features of the work of the Unit, as are minstrel shows, parades and carnivals. But the greatest boon of all is an opportunity for self expression in music; the colored race might as well be deprived of food as of its little gatherings for singing and playing musical instruments. Among those who have been entertained at the club house are members of the 369th Colored Regiment, commanded by Col. "Bill" Hayward, which won such lasting place in the hearts of Americans by its gallant deeds in France, and no little fame as the originators of "jazz" music.
A Missourian, en route for a ball game, said recently: "Down South, we thought New Yorkers were cold, indifferent folks, and that we'd just have to wait in misery for our discharges and a chance to get back home. I'll say the women of the Harvard Unit have been pretty nice to us, and when I get down home I'm going to tell them all about the good times we've had. The fellows didn't expect anything like this, and they're having the time of their lives. Why, New York folks are just like home folks, after all."
The activities of the motor corps are not confined to military operations, however. Civilian hospitals, orphanages and Old Folk's homes come in for their just share of relief work. Old men and women, friendless and disprited, are gladdened by a motor ride to and from church on Sundays. The Lincoln Home for Old Folks (colored) sends many to church through the efforts of the league. Four thousand orphans were recently entertained at an amusement park near the city; their day including the free distribution of ice cream, candy and cakes. The upkeep of motors and ambulances, the distribution of delicacies and numerous small expenses are met by special contributions. Even the smallest amount of money can be stretched to bring happy hours to sufferers, and the motor corps will be grateful for any sum, however modest. Imagine

25 Local Business Men Off For St. Louis
WILL LEAVE SUNDAY IN SPECIAL
PULLMAN OVER DIXIE FLYER
Largest Delegation Sayannah Has
Yet Seit to Negro Business League
Twenty-five of Sayannah's leading
Negro business and professional men
will leave tomorrow, Sunday, for the
annual session of the National Negro
Business League which convenes next
Wednesday at St. Louis, Mo. They
go by way of Waysnes and the Dixie
Flyer in a special Pullman.
Those making the trip represent practically every line of business in which Savannah colored folk are engaged, and it is doubtful if a stronger delegation than this will go to St. Louis from any point in the country. It has been estimated that the aggregate value of the business and other interests represented by the party will run beyond a million dollars. The league's session will last three days, after which the party will break company, some going north and east and others returning home. Reservation for the party have been made at one of the large hotels in St. Louis.
Pres. L. E. Williams of the Wage Carriers Savings Bank is in charge of the party. Another special delegation in private cars will leave Jacksonville at the same time, with Mr. Chas Anderson at its head, joining the Savannah party at Waycross, Waycross, Macon and Atlanta delegations will go in the Jacksonville car.
Those making the trip from Savannah will be: L. E. Williams, G. H. Bowen, G. L. Gapon, W. W. Hill, Daniel Simmons, Sol. C. Johnson, E. C. Blackshear, G. B. Tyson, P. Edward Perry, Jos. L. Jackson, J.

WAYCROSS BUSINESS LEAGUE
HAS BIG BANQUET
Waycross, Ga. Aug. 6th
The fifth annual dinner of the Waycross Negro Business League which took place Wednesday night surpassed all previous efforts. Messrs. Miller and Ingram, caterers, covered themselves with glory in detail of preparation for refreshments. The president, Dr. H. C. Scarlett, and the committee of arrangements of Which Mr. E. E. Moore was chairman left nothing off that would make the occasion a notable affair. The following subjects were discussed, "The Negro Opportunity in the Business World," Dr. S. D. Cotterell; "The Negro Business a Factor in the World's Progress," Dr. J. J. Creagh; "Commercialism and Fraternialism" Hon. C. W. Galanes. The speakers reflected much credit upon themselves. The solo by Miss Susie E. Smith was well rendered and received deserved applause. At this point, Mr. Moore, in happily chosen words, introduced the speaker of the evening. Hon. G. B. Hutto whose address was a master piece of unimbienced, straight-forward family talk. All of Waycross ought have heard his splendid speech. The Overseer called for much splendid costuming, especially among the women, and the banquet hall presented a picture that surpassed all past efforts in appropriate and reasonable gumping. The man being clad in Prince Alberts, evening dress, and business, suits added much pleasant variety to the scene. Bunts orchestra was at its host and was the signal for much whirling and twirling after the dinner was over.
---
The following visitors were called upon to say a few words of encouragement: Mr. R. A. Harper, cashier of the Wage Earners Bank, Savannah; Dr. C. B. Tyson, of Savannah and Dr. M. M. C. King, Douglas, Ga. The other visitors present were Mrs. W. A. Moseley, and Miss Olive Lester, Thomasville, Ga., Prof. J. Frank Rodges, Quiltman, Ga., Messrs. Chancey Hudson and J. B. Jenkins, also Miss Marie Gary, Valdosta, Rev. N. H. German, South America, Mrs. C. M. Hankerson, Macon, Miss Wade, Kuperville, Tennessee.
One notable incident worthy of mention in connection with the coming of Prof. Hutton. Just as the party got off the cars a big down pour of rain was in progress. This fact did not deter the U. F. R., for they marched in perfect drill escorting the Grand Chancellor to his stopping place, being well drenched with rain. Three cheers for Cant. Bailey.
With an enrollment of forty members the banquet passed into history to be long remembered.
your own plight were you a helpless invalid, confined to the sick-room during all the glorious days of the summer. How wonderful it would be to be able, through the courtesy of generous donors and the efforts of the Hayward Unit to drive through the country, weekly, enjoying the sight, sound and fragrance of nature's beauty.
The motor corps, has proven its worth. Captain Leavelle is rewarded by the ability to look backward on the work done thus far and face the future saying: "The Hayward Unit, in brightening the path of the sick and unfortunate is attaining the utmost in personal service."
Mr. J. H. G. Butler who has been very ill for the past month, is much improved.

Philadelphia Uneasy Over Existing
Racial Conditions
(Associated Negro Press)
Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. T—Residents
of the downtown sections and in the
colortd district in North Philadelphia
are claiming that the sale of pistols
and other weapons to Negroes are in-
creasing in an alarming manner. TEs
bas not been denied by pawnbrokers
and hardware dealers, who maintain
that there is also an appreciable in-
crease in the sale to whites as well.
It is known that the police and the
military authorities in and around the
city are watching the situation close-
Jy. fearing an outhreak in this city as
an aftermath of tle recent race riots.
Duplication of the news from the cap-
ifa] has cansed much talk, particularly
in those sections where the Negroes
and whites mixed Coselr. With re-
membrance of serious outhreaks here
during the war, the authorities are do-
ing all in their power to prevent a
recurrence.
Owing to the report that the Naval
Capital at Washington had been at-
tacked by a band of armed Negroes
fn automobiles. and that wounded sail-
ors and marines had been fired upon,
has caused feelings to run Ligh at the
navy yard here. So open has been the
talk against Negroes that the lihertirs
have been cnt to the minimum. snd
the same precaution will be observed
as, long as the naval officers feel that
there is any danger.
Extra patrelmen have been put ont
in some of tke districts where racial
outbreaks may be expected to occur
and it is expected that regulations pro-
hibiting the sale of firearms for fhe
time heing at Teast, soon will he issued
Such a preeantion has been taken in
Traltimore. both to prevent outbreaks in
that city and to stop the transparta-
tion of weapons frem that city “i

hington,
We hear much these days about \
colored people not patronizing colored
-business enterprises— i
The truth of the matter is that many Colored business men
have neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminat- _
ing tastes of the Colored customer nor with the specialized _
efforts of their white competitors.
It’s a far cry” from sentiment to business, ‘
This is the age of specialized selling methods and the Col-
; ered merchant must “fall in” or “fall out.”
The difference between the busipess which is “mighty fine”
ard “just so-so” is the difference in merchandising methods,
We can help you to pat your bnsiness into the “mighty fine”

It is the plan of the individual and organization workers to reach personally as many of these men as possible to learn whether they are keeping up their war risk insurance, and if not, to point out to them the advantages of the protection offered by Uncle Sam in recognition of the services veterans of the World War rendered their country.
New York, Aug. 6—Dr. W. E. B. DuBois of 70 Fifth Avenue, editor of The Crisis, a magazine published in connection with the work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, yesterday attributed the race riots in Washington to the irritability of all people and the unsettling of many ideas caused by the war, to the infuriacy of a large number of southerners into Washington, and to the presence in that city of many of the representatives of the educated, well-dressed class of Negroes which white racial antagonists dislike.
"Washington policemen are notoriously unfriendly to the colored people," he added. "Time and time again they stand by and witness a dispute between a white man and Negro and when it is over and the Negro has been beaten they arrest the Negro and not the white man who caused the trouble in the first place."
"The colored editor pointed out the similarities between the present riots in Washington and the Atlanta riots which occurred about twelve years ago. In both place he said, "white hoodlums began rioting and killed Negroes. When the latter became aroused and began to retaliate, the authorites stepped in and the rioting stopped.
Major J. E. Spingarn, acting treasurer of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said the soldiers and sailors who have been taking part in the rioting in Washington resent the new attitude of self-respect the Negro has resumed because of the part he played in the war. "The soldiers," he said, "instead of fighting the Negroes because the latter think better of themselves for having fought in the war, should have respect them for having proved themselves such good fighters."
Major Spingarn was a staff officer attached to the 6th Army Corps. One of the divisions of the corps was the 92d, composed entirely of colored troops.
Two representatives of the association are now in Washington investigating the causes of the race riots.

Our Catholic picnics have always been a great success, thanks to the efforts of our church members and numerous friends who always patronize us in our undertakings. To answer a long expected wish of our people and friends, a charity picnic will take place to "Rose Garden Island", August 18th. The entire income will be for the benefit of our good colored sisters and the orphans of St. Francis Home. This affair should appeal to every heart so as to help to make this event a great success. The steamer Attaquil has been chartered for the occasion and will leave in the morning at 9:30 and the first trip. Another trip will be made at 2:30 p. m. The round trip will be 50 cents for everybody. The usual refreshments will be served by the members of our Catholic Sewing Circle and our Catholic Mutual Aid. The following have been appointed to serve on the committee: Mr. W. Smith, chairman; Mrs. Mamie Roston, chairlady. Final arrangements will be made tomorrow at a meeting called after the last mass at the club meeting room on east Gordon street.
Norfolk, Va, Aug 4—The opening of a week of festivities to celebrate the homecoming of Negro troops was marked by race riots last night in which six persons including a detective, were shot.

DR. CASSELL HERE IN INTEREST OF LIBERIA
Please for Upbuilding of Liberia Were Made at Liberian Celebration
(Associated Negro Press)
New York, N. Y., Aug 7—Pleas for interest in the upbuilding of Liberia were made by Dr. N. H. B. Cassell, president of Liberian College, Dr. Earnest Lyons of Baltimore and others at the celebration of the 62nd anniversary of Liberian independence. The Aremican and Liberian flags hung together, and the anthems of both countries were played by the orchestra. Dr. Cassell, who is in this country in the interest of Liberia College, outlined the needs of his country and urged interest here in its welfare.
Dr. Lyon made a plea for young men and women of ability, who had some financial resources to emigrate to Liberia and aid in its upbuilding. He praised the interest of the American government in the little West African republic and said that the granting of a $5,000,000 credit to Liberia by the United States did not mean an impairment of the independence of the former country.

NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL
MILLION DOLLAR DRIVE
Baptist of Country Making Strenuous Efforts to Raise Money
(Reciprocal News Service)
Norfolk, Va., August 6—Imputus is being given to the million dollar drive for education and missions now on by the Baptists of the country, who are to meet here in their convention September 10-15th. This increased momentum that is going to wind up in the culmination of the greatest financial effort ever put on by any distinctive Negro religious organization came about when Tennessee reported to the Baptist Leadquarters that out of the one million dollars promised by the National Baptist following, she had subscribed her quota of one hundred thousand, the subscription having been taken through their State Convention in session at Columbia, Tenn., several weeks ago.
The Old Dominion State, it is understood, will subscribe their quota during the convention session, while Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, the Carolinas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri and other states will provide their quota on the big educational rally day in this city, at which time it is expected that a sufficient amount of cash will be laid upon the tables to insure the opening of the doors of the The logical summary and Training School at Nashville not later than the 15th of October. The intensity with which the campaign is being pushed because apparent when the forerunners and the advanced yards of the million dollar project reached the city last week to open their headquarters. The adoption of the slogan, "A Million for Education and Missions," with the turning out of the badges, buttons and circulating of the literature was declared by Secretary Madison to be, only a fore-runner of what would really develop in the next eight or ten days.
Story Reads More Like Fiction Than Real Facts
(Associated Negro Press)
Albany, N. Y., August 7—Mrs. Marion Blake, who said she lived in Albany adopted a two-weeks old orphan baby in New York yesterday. At the same time, she left in the office of Dr. Mary Halton at 17 E, 38th street, a five months old Negro baby which she said she legally adopted when it was but a few days old. At the time she did not know the child had Negro blood in its veins and she was heartbroken when she learned the real facts and knew that she would have to part with the little one to whom she had become greatly attached. The story reads more fiction like than real facts. Dr. Harlton advertised Tuesday in
"The baby was small and plump, redish, as new-born infants usually are, and had bright, pretty brown eyes. I adopted her legally and had her, christened "Barbara." The loves of both my mother and myself were glorified by the advent of the little orphan. Every day found the tiny mite occupying more and more room in our hearts.
"It was when she was three months old that we first noticed that her skin seemed to be growing darker and darker each week. Neither my mother or myself put our fears into words, however, until the baby was four months old.
"Finally I took her to the hospital for examination, I had to go home and tell my mother that Barara was a colored baby."
"The last month has been one of agony. She is five months old now and I realize that sooner or later, I must give her up. It would eventually bring unhappiness to all concerned and the most unhappiness of all to herself.
"When I read that you had an infant girl for adoption, I thought, perhaps if I had another baby near me, it would be easier to part with mine."
Little Barbara was passed from the arms of her foster mother to Dr. Halton. Mrs. Blake sobbed as she said: "I can't see her again."
She turned her head away to gaze from the window with eyes that could not see. Then into the empty arms of Mrs. Blake the doctor quietly placed the tiny unnamed white child.
Long minutes passed before the "mother" looked at the dainty bundle in her arms. Tears fell silently on the baby's white dress. At last the woman gazed reluctantly upon the wee face, snuggled against her heart; and into the blue eyes of her own race she smiled thru her tears.
Dr. Halton is concerned today about Barbara. That the drama may end happily, for all, little "bab", too, must find a home. Dr. Halton said.
"Somewhere in New York there must be good colored people who want her. I want to find a good home for her with her own people."
