VOLUME XXXIV 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. Tribune. 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 ひ 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. ORDER EASTERN GATES HOLD ANNUAL SESSION The Grand United Order of Eastern Gates will hold its first annual session at Gaines A. M. E. Chapel, Rev. K. L. Herd, pastor. The welcome address and sermon will be given by the pastor. There will be night sessions. An address will be delivered by Lawyer George W. Hall, in behalf of the order. The response to be delivered by the state deputy, James Wilson. There will be several representatives from various organizations. Mr. N. Roberts will speak in behalf of the Savannah Undertaking Company. The meeting will be presided over by State Grand Counsellor J. G. Burns, Mrs. T. A. Jones is grand secretary of the order. 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 NUMBER 47 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. W. Johnson, Thos. M. Holly, H. M. Collier, Wm. Bristor, O. T. Mitchell, J. W Jamerson, Nathan Roberts, Bishop McLemore, Wm McKelvey, Rev. J. S. Moody, J. H. Kinckle, D. A. Williams, Rev. E. H. Quo. 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. 110. BRYAN STREET, WEST TWO PAGE Sunday at the U. S.

D. C. Aug. 7—Race riots in the country as a sequel to the disturbances here were predicted by James Weldon Johnson, field secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Johnson is in Washington investigating the riots here and endeavoring to aid the authorities as far as possible. "I am afraid we will have riots elsewhere as a result of those here," he said. "When they come they will be serious. The colored men will not run away from it and hide as they have done on previous occasions of that kind. The experience here has demonstrated clearly that the colored man will no longer submit to being beaten without cause. "Thruout the South we will find that the Negroes are in a state in which they have never been before. In previous race riots they have run away and have been beaten without resistance, but now they will protect themselves." "The Federal authorities must take a hand if the local or state authorities are unable to successfully cope with the situation. It is certain that the things which should be done is to conduct a swapping Federal investigation into the riots in the National Capital Wheeling W. Vt. August 6. George J. Au-rin, for the ten years in the commander of the Tuskegee Institution is now a worker for the War, Camp Community Service, as assistant to W. J. Miller, director of this district. He will consult with George Houston, executive secretary here, concerning the organization of the colored work in Wheeling. One of the first things of importance to be taken up is the matter of recreation for the colored people of the city. Mr. Austin was a lieutenant in the Ninety Second Division, helped organize the Three Hundred Seventeenth Engineers and Three Hundred and Sixty Fifth Infantry. He is well qualified to take up the work of the W. C. C. S. (Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 7—Residents of the downtown sections and in the colored district in North Philadelphia are claiming that the sale of pistols and other weapons to Negroes are increasing in an alarming manner. This has not been denied by pawnbrokers and hardware dealers, who maintain that there is also an appreciable increase 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 closely, fearing an outbreak in this city as an aftermath of the recent race riots. Duplication of the news from the capital has caused much talk, particularly in those sections where the Negroes and whites mixed closely. With remembrance of serious outbreaks here during the war, the authorities are doing all in their power to prevent a recurrence. Owing to the report that the Naval Capital at Washington had been attacked by a band of armed Negroes in automobiles, and that wounded sailors and marines had been fired upon, has caused feelings to run high at the navy yard here. So open has been the talk against Negroes that the liberties have been cut to the minimum, and the same precaution will be observed as long as the naval officers feel that there is any danger. Extra patrolmen have been put out in some of the districts where racial outbreaks may be expected to occur and it is expected that regulations prohibiting the sale of firearms for the time being at least, soon will be issued. Such a precaution has been taken in Baltimore, both to prevent outbreaks in that city and to stop the transportation of weapons from that city to Washington.

SATURDAY AUGUST 9,1919 Now that there is a temporary abatement of riot and bloodshed, it occurs to us to consider the varied mental attitudes of the races and peoples in America which provide the material out of which such barbarian results. Certainly, here in America, we are trying to create "a kingdom within a kingdom," the one subservient to and dominated by the other, and yet each possessing its own moral, intellectual and political standards, and each having its own spheres of human activity and its own desires and ideals. Such a creation, such parallel relationships are unnatural and impossible. There can be no permanent peace and quiet between two peoples, living in such violent contact as the black and the white live in in America, unless the one people is en-laved by the other, or that the same standards of justice, opportunity and ideals co-exist. There can be no dual standards which the governing power may apply to its subjects, if permanent peace may be expected. If it proved nothing else, the great war established beyond cavil that imperialistic forms of government, where autocracy rules arbitrarily and unleashed and where class distinction and political costs allowed, cannot endure. "Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown" has been emphasized in the tremendous self-assertion of the oppressed plebian classes of all nations in the awakening of the war. Subject peoples, used to help win the war, felt the misfortune of their lot before the upper classes of their own people, and determined to wrest social and political and industrial justice for themselves at the cost of revolution, rebellion, death. Scores of the smaller nationalities, this very day, are the senses of coercing and conflicting political parties called Liberals, Nationalists, Socialists, or other suggestive titles, warring to the death to get control of the unstable governments under which they live, to set themselves up as free citizens, their development to be limited only by their individual capacity to develop. The first of them have been awakened with a more intense glow since so much has been written and announced to the world about the high human motives and purpose of the bloody and costly war through which we have just passed. Consequently all those who cast their lot in the thick of battle with those whose precocious sounded the eternal and enpluring principles of justice and "good-will to all men," those who heard most of self-determination, making the world a decent place to live in, and making the world safe for democracy, have a right to see to it that these very principles are established and enthroned by the ruling power and that these principles shall be vitalized and made to apply to every American citizen. The days of caste and kings are over, in so far as these are made to represent the ancient and time-honored regime wherein the strong waxed and grew far at the expense of the weak, in so far as such things secured all the advantage and preferment to those who happened to be born "under lucky stars" or upon whom Fortune smiled as if by accident. The right of self-determination, in a fair field of full opportunity, is the inevitable order of this day, "All men up rather than some men down" is to be the prevailing principle of all organization and the goal of all stable power. None other is logical or righteous, none other is democratic. America has been hearing and answering the cries and waits of the suffering and oppressed peoples of other autocratic and imperialistic governments; it has failed to see, or been blinded, to the most positive forms of imperialism and autocracy at our very doors. We have here every form and instance of the reprehensible and punishing, practices of king regime. The masses, the producers of the world, have been exploited to build great fortunes and power. The government has done little to recompense and safeguard and encourage these workers. Attempts at regulation and social reform for the masses have always been frustrated or curtailed by the profteers who either directly or indirectly influenced the legislation governing such reforms. Such advances as have been made represent concessions which have been wrested from the great powers by strike, boycott and the like. The American government, except where its hand has been forced, has consistently refused or avoided legislation and the execution of law insuring liberty guaranteed to black men under the basic law of our land. It has made no pretense at enforcing compliance with the plain statutes guaranteeing protection to ten millions of citizens against Jim-crowkm, lynching, discrimination in 'almost every public service utility, and everywhere. Inconsistent and incompatible as these things are with the constitution of the nation and the ideals for which this nation was first established, all the above sins go merrily on under the very noses of the laws and the government, and the authority remains passive, indifferent, indulgent or lacking in courage to interfere. It has been content, merely, to settle any conflict which would arise as a result of such injustice, dealing with it as a purely local and isolated circumstance. It has avoided and pretended not to see the deeper principle underlying the condition. This temporizing has brought about a race war. That is what we have been experiencing in Washington and Chicago. We cannot dismiss these outbreaks as local phenomena, peculiarly only to their scenes. We all know that we have the very same conditions in every other center of mixed white and black population in America. It is foolish to deny its existence, and more foolish to delay taking up the critical condition for a just and sensible solution. The American mind seems to be undergoing a struggle between the conflicting emotions of duty and justice on the one hand, and expediency and sentiment on the other. The conscience is stultified by the sin of indulging and condoning wrong of the sort outlined. The perils of the present intrude upon the better judgment with such force that the American opinion realizes that something very positive must be done to save the nation's peace and civilization. Suffied and cowardly, when the present storm shall abate, the nation may forget its present concern, and drift back into circumvention and inaction on these dire national evils. "It will be deplorable if it be, for we shall" but be paving the way for more horrifying trouble in the future. The Negro in the meantime recounts his rights to heirship in the nationalism and idealism of America. He has made all the sacrifices of other citizens. He has assumed all the duties imposed by the laws. He has not every call and test of his patriotism in invasion from the inside. He is insisting upon fairness and justice because it is right, and because he has loved to make America what it is. Is there one who will displease the Negro's claim in the face of facts? What claim to a nation's protection and hom and paternity was ever better founded? Let us have peace, then, and fellowship, founded as if only can be, upon mutual confidence, mutual respect, mutual help and fair play, the greatest the other always and in everything. ON TO STROUIS That is going to be a "mighty fine" launch of Savannah-Negro citizens that will step from a special pullman train at St. Louis next Tuesday morning. They are going to represent the whole city of Savannah, and Savannah is going to be well represented, because this company of men are indeed, and in truth, "representative" of the full interests of our people. In the company will be men from all walks of life, and especially will they be representative of the business aspect of the Savannah Negro. Practically every man of the entire twenty-five, if not a professional man, represents the leading spirit of some splendid successful business, enterprise in Savannah. They are no idle frolickers; they are all busy men with hardly time to go; but they realize the infinite advantages, to be derived from contact with leading business men all over the nation, the great good to be had from an exchange of ideas and experiences, and the inestimable value which comes from learning the most efficient methods of meeting the varied problems which the Negro business man meets. Their money will be widely spent: their own businesses, when they return to Savannah, will be made to take on a newer life and spirit, and will yield returns sufficient to justify the expense of going a hundred-fold. Men are encouraged and inspired by the successes of other men similarly placed as themselves; one comes to feel that he can do what other men have accomplished, laboring under the same conditions and obstacles as himself. It will mean volumes in modern idea and thought and inspiration to these already progressive citizens of Savannah. And we are proud to send out such representatives; and we shall be proud of the showing they will make before the-thousands of others assembled in the great Missouri city. We do not doubt that Savannah people and Savannah business will Have a very high rating all over the country as a direct tour and so just sit to enjoy Savannah has always shown well at these annual meetings of the League; she has always sent good, strong men to represent her; and this year she is sending up a crowd to tell how Savannah, during the past twelve months, has achieved greater things than ever before have been achieved in an equal period of time. They can report to the League: That the Savannah: Negro has discovered himself; that he is fully awake to the splendid opportunities of the hour; that he is saving his money as he never did before (indicated by the rapid and sharp increases in deposits and savings at four Negro banks); that he is buying homes and property for investment (as shown by the unprecedented activity of Negro real estate men); that he is loyal to patronize his own professional men (as proved by the fact that every Negro professional man in Savannah is having about all he can do, and is making money; that he is exhibiting a larger and higher interest in his moral improvement; that he is improving the character of his business; and that he is in business to stay because he is establishing himself permanently on the greatest highway of trade in Savannah, by purchasing some of the very best business property in the city. (During this year, now half gone, Negro business interests have purchased some of the principal business corners on West Broad street and other property, and one firm has completed its holdings to embrace an entire block, just diagonally opposite the Union Station.) If this story can be brought to the nt: tention of the Business League, at St. Louis, without fanfare and exaggregation, we shall not be fearful of the rating which our representatives and our fair city shall be given in the estimates of progress of the different centers of the country. We trust that all the men representing their several lines of business will provide themselves with such printed matter as they may have on hand to carry, so as to tell the story of the Savannah Negro in business, not with boast or bigotry or false claims, but with the modest statement of facts and figures. The truth will secure us all the consideration we need. We have done well, as a people. Those of us who remain shall follow the events of the great gathering with a boomer interest, because of our large and representative delegation of splendid men, and because they are going to represent 45,000 Negroes living in Chatham County, and because they are going to pay credit to the unfailing loyalty and confidence of the rank and file of Savannah Negroes in Negro business, for it is these qualities in our people which have made these splendid successes possible of realization.

There is no guidance here or hearts That thuds not here an end. Living or dying, none were best. Here he before us the incest room of one of our coworkers in the master's vinyard, Lloyd, C. J. kubs. Were it not for the cruel connexes of the grave, where his body must repose, from on sight, until the morning of the resurrection, this our brother, would not seem far removed from us, though speechless. We do not realise, nor count him dead, but sleeping, and whose waking will be supremely blessed, for when on the 20th day or March A. D. 1865, just after the bloody civil war, President Lincoln by the stroke of his pen, unshackled the chains of slavery from his body and those of his race; Quirk, through, the power of grave divine, also set his soul free, and prepared him for this day. He was baptised into the fellowship of the First African Baptist church of Savannah, Ga., by the Rev. W. J. Campbell, January 7, 1899 at about the age of 12 years. Twelve years afterwards on the 0th day of January 1872, he was elected clerk of the church and served faithfully and efficiently until Jan. 1904, thus rounding out 25 years of service as clerk. On Oct. 22, 1906 he was nominated at a regular conference of the church for trustee, but declined the nomination. On Feb. 18, 1907 he was again nominated for trustee, and was elected. This office he held up to the time of his death. Sunday July 27, 1919, twelve years of service as a trustee. His tenure of office as clerk extended through the pastorates of Ross, W. J. Campbell, Geo. Gibbons, D. K. Love, and a part of Rev. J. W. Carr. The church's hi-litory, by the lamented Rev. I. K. Love, pays a glowing tribute to him up to July 1, 1855 on page 191. Added to that testimony, his years of service since, have reflected no less credit on himself and the office he held. Brother Elbs though a student of the old school, and well informed, possessed a growing intelligence which befittingly kept him abreast of the times. He was a penman, and a record keeper of no mean ability, and figured most prominently in the affairs of the church in legal matters. His signature is adhiked, to more legal documents of the church, possibly than any one man, living or dead. He was respected by both white and colored citizens of Savannah's first citizenship. In his position it was almost impossible to carry the functions of his office without at times being misunderstood. He was meek, patient, slow of speech and precise in whatever he attempted to do; and whenever he wrote, well might the saying he rightly applied "Whatever is written, is written." His loyalty to the church, in time of peace and confusion, and his weakness to endure whatever was justly or unjustly heaped upon him by whatever accusers he may have had argues for him a Christian life worthy of the esteem of the membership of the church, both friend and fee. In appreciation of his services rendered we, the pastor and board of officers, beg to submit the following resolutions: Whereas, God in His infinite wisdom on Sunday morning July 27, 1919, removed from our midst to His heavenly abode, Trustee Chas, H. Ebbs, and Whereas, in his demise the First African Baptist church, Franklin square has lost an efficient and faithful officer; a member of a half a century standing, who has secured prominently in the affairs of the church. Therefore be it Resolved: First—That, we how in humble submission to Him, who doeth all things well. Second. That the official staff of the church has sustained an irreparable loss, the community has loss a respectable citizen, and the family a loving and dutiful provider. Third. That a post or chair in the church be praped, for a period of six months, and his office be held vacant during the said period as a mark of the church's esteem for his valuable services. Fourth. That we extend to the bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy, and beseech our Heavenly Father to wipe away their tears and soothe their aching hearts. Resolved fifth. That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of the church, a copy be published, and a copy be sent to the family. Respectfully submitted. Board of Officers F. A. B. church Rev. T. Jefferson Goodall, pastor Attest: W. G. Williams, Church Clerk Watch Your MONEY grow BANK BOOK Washington, August 6—In order to prevent a recurrence of the epidemic of influenza which caused 550,000 deaths in the United States, Representative D, Fess of Ohio, has urged upon the House an appropriation of $1,500,000 to the Public Health Service for an investigation of the causes of the disease and the method of its prevention. In his resolution, which has the endorsement of the American Medical Association, Dr. Fess narrates that a large proportion of the great number of deaths were produced by pneumonia and other complications, that influenza, pneumonia and allied diseases now caused approximately one-tenth of all deaths in the country, that medical science is not yet in possession of complete data as to the cause, modes of transmission, prevention and cure of influenza, and that therefore the possession of this knowledge is of grave social and economic concern to the nation. It is therefore urged that to enable the Public Health Service to discover the causes and prevent the spread of the disease, and for allotment of sums to universities, colleges and other research institutions, as in the Judgment of the Secretary of the Treasury are qualified for research work that a million and a half be appropriated by Congress. It is also urged that the medical departments of the army and navy join in the search for methods of prevention. in this bank with each succeeding year. Your savings will accumulate rapidly, for not alone does your balance increase with each deposit, but the interest also helps to enlarge it. Figure out for yourself how compound interest will amount up. Then put your knowledge to practical use by opening a savings account here this very day. "There is no doubt," said Dr. Fess, "that this malady will again come upon us. If the experience of the theories of maladies that have overrun country be duplicated, as I fear they will be, we may expect terrific results in the next year or two from the influenza. They tell me there is no antitoxin that has as yet been discovered to combat it. Dr. Pröffer thought he had discovered that it was due to what was called influenza bacillus. That theory has been abandoned by the medical world, which today is much concerned about what is has to meet in the near future. I think it would be wise and rational for Congress to spend enough money to set in motion machinery, under the highest medical talent in America, to treat outpatient research the origin of it, lil' put, together with the application of some remedy that may be discovered. This is especially necessary in view of the fact that life insurance sett' show that during the five years following the last grime epidemic the death rate was 40 per cent above normal.

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. Hold-Tight 2 FOR 25¢ WHITE OR GRAY 25¢ EACH CAP OR FRINGE SHAPE W.M.

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." Oglethorpe Meat Market We handle first class meals of all kinds, Cheese, Butter, Eggs and Vegetables, etc...Call and give us a trial.
