VOLUME XXXIV Makes Known Facts Leading to Attack on Secretary TEXAS AUTHORITIES ADVISE DISCONTINUANCE OF CRISIS And Opposed the Deamnd of Equal Service on Public Cars New York, Aug. 26—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People makes known the folloying facts regarding the situation in Austin, Texas, which led to its secretary, John R. Shillady's visit to the capital in Austin and the assault upon him there by a judge, a deputy sheriff and another white citizen in which Mr. Shillady was severely beaten in front of his hotel and ordered to leave the city: The city of Austin has one of the largest branches of the Association in Texas, numbering 316 members. Texas indeed has the highest membership of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People of any state in the Union, 7,016 members with 31 branches. It was, therefore, with great concern that on August 11 the National Association Secretary received a letter from R. A. Williams, president of the Austin, Tex., branch, saying that on August 9 the deputy sheriff had served a citation on him to appear at the Court of the Justice of Peace bringing all books, papers, correspondence, etc., belonging or pertaining to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He complied, was interrogated for thirty minutes and dismissed. At this writing he was under the ruling of the court and could not tell us any more. Mr. Shillady, on receipt of this communication, left New York going first to Chicago to do some work regarding the recent riots, and from there to Texas, reaching Texas Thursday: It was on Friday that the outrageous attack was made on him. It is unnecessary for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to make the statement to the press of this country that it intends to do everything in its power to punish the offenders and to make the country ring with a knowledge of the conditions in the capitol city of Texas. Only in the southern states of America could we read of a judge and deputy beating up a citizen visiting their city in the interest of a well known association, highly honored, of ten years standing, an association with Moorfield Store, former president of the Bar Association, as its president, Major J. E. Spingarn as its treasurer, with the Governor of Minnesota as the president of one of its branches, and Senator Capper, until recently, president of another, an association that has stood always for kindly dealing and fair play The a-sociation believes that the citizens of the United States feel, with it profound indignation at this latest expression of mob violence. No colored man who appears to think for himself is safe in the South, and it would seem that the same is true today of any white man who has the courage to expound his cause. The annual report of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was put in the hand of the District Attorney, Deputy Sheriff and the Justice of the Peace in Austin. They read its chief aims stated as follows: A vote for every Negro man and woman on the same terms as for white men and women. An equal chance to acquire the kind of education that will enable the Nexro everywhere wisely to use this vote. A fair trial in the courts for all crimes of which he is accused by, judges in whose election he has participated without discrimination because of race. A right to sit upon a jury which passes judgment upon him. Defense against typhning and learing at the hands of mobs. Equal service on railroads and public carriers. This to mean sleeping car service, dining car service, Pullman service, at the same cost and upon the same terms as other passengers. Equal right to the use of public parks, libraries and other community services for which he is taxed. An equal chance for a livelihood in public and private employment. The abolition of the color-hypenation and the substitution of "straight Americanism." The demands for equal service on railroad and public carriers they took a special exception to. They also ad Atlanta University Student Wins Third Honor Among Contestants Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 27—Louis J. Harper, a young Atlanta Negro, has just been announced as the winner of third prize in a nation-wide essay contest on the subject, "Why we Should Have an American Language." The contest, was conducted by the state library of Ohio, and was open to all accredited students of all universities, colleges and high schools throughout the country. Young. Harper who is just 20 years of age, was a member of the Students Army Training Corps of Atlanta University, and completed his sophomore year in 1919 with honors. In writing of Harper's success, J. H. Newman, state librarian of Ohio, said: "This young man has great promise for his race. Nothing can possibly contribute more to the uplift of the African than the education and careful training of such men as young Harper. "He is entitled to all the credit he receives, for the reason that no judge knew anything about the name of the individual writer until after the decision. Therefore, the elimination of all prejudice or partiality, from the result." So widespread was the interest in this contest that Mr. Newman has decided to launch another contest, along these lines, some time during the coming fall, after all the schools are organized for their new year's work. DR. TYSON RETURNS MONDAY Dr. C. B. Tyson who is now in Atlantic City, N. J., will return to the city Monday to resume his practice.

Martin left last week for the National Negro Medical Convention which is meeting in Newark, N. J. He will return to the city next week. vised discontinuance of The Crisis. They talked about social equality. In the same report, the Associati in Mr Shillady's forceful language, makes this statement regarding social equality which it believes and for which it intends to battle to the end: Nor Lould any one be led astray by the tiresome talk about 'social equality'. Social equality is a private question which may well be left to individual decision. But, the prejudices of individuals cannot be accepted as the controlling policy of a state. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is concerned primarily with public equality. America is a nation—not a private club. The privileges no less than the duties of citizenship belong to right to no separate class of people but to all the people, and to them as individuals. The constitution and the laws are for the protection of the minority and of the unpopular, no less than for the favorites of fortune, or they are of no meaning as American instruments of government. Will not the readers of this article wire or write to their Senators and Representatives expressing their insignation at the treatment recorded Mr. Shilladay in Texas, and urging upon them a Congressional investigation of mob-violence in the United States?

Educational Society Good Work FIELD SECRETARY'S MOVEMENTS BRINGS RESULTS Co-Operation of all Negroes Asked In Splendid Work (By J. A. Martin, Field Secy.) To the members of the Georgia Association and well wishers, we bring greetings from the field to you thru these columns: The Georgia Association for the Advancement of Education Among Negroes is growing very rapidly in interest throughout the state. Everywhere you go the people welcome it. They know of it generally, and the few who do not know of it welcome it most heartily when its mission is well explained. They feel to the man that it is filling a long felt need among the colored people of Georgia. To say that it is doing this is to put it mildly when you consider how poorly paid the Georgia teachers, how short the term of the Georgia schools and the utter lack of school houses. It is thought, and for good reasons, that the educational progress among our people in Georgia is far behind its advancement along other lines in the rural schools. In many places there is very little interest indeed. Beginning at the very bottom, with the primary grades and going through the college, Prof. H. A. Hunt, M. W. Reddick and others too numerous to mention plan to arouse both white and colored upon the great subject of Negro education through this organization. As an organization for education it is the most unselfish, most simple and inclusive of any movement since the war in our state. The plan is to reach every home, however humble, in the master of education. This will be done by organizing every school community into a branch organization with every father and mother a member, whether he has a child or not. It goes still further by making the request that each church, fraternal organization, social club and Woman's federated club become representative members as such and give contributions for the cause of education. In short it puts the burden of education upon every colored man and white man in the state. The organization is doing much good already. As stated, every where we go the ministers, fraternal societies, parents and people say, "It is the thing needed for education." The phrase suits us. It shows that the people are ready to be helped. This month has been a great land breaking month. We have been before the Eastern Star, grand chapter which met in Macon, Odd Fellows grand lodge, which met in Atlanta, and three district conferences at Macon, Augusta and McRae. Those met at Dyrs, Sparta and Lumber City. The fraternal organizations, with Mrs. Viola Hart, Ameri, and Sol. C. Johnson, Savannah, Eastern Stars; and Prof. B. S Ingram, Macon, and B. J. Davis, Atlanta, as heads, gave me the most hearty reception. Their warmth was in every way becoming men and women in the high places. It was broad beyond description and showed that they possessed that vision which, in every way is the essence of charity. They impressed me as never before that our people are really in earnest when it comes to the matter of human uplift. As an organization they registered their hearty approval without a single protest, and each voted one hundred dollars as an evidence of their zeal and faith in the good work for Negro education. They were loud in their applause and words of encouragement. The district conferences were pre-ided over by Reys H. S. Delcher, J. H. Wizzins and "ye servant." While they did not have large donations to offer, their reception was indeed warm. We met the mayor and the president of the board of education, Lumber City, Ga., and entered the planning of a Rosenwald school, and of this you will learn more later. We also organized strong committees at Cordale with such men as Drs. A. S. Clark, Presbyterian minister; J. A. Robinson, C. M. E. pastor, together with such professional men as Drs. Kyle, Wilson, Pae and others. At St. Paul near, Sparta we planned organization with Prof. Albert Dixon. At no place have we heard a discordant note as regards this work. No doubt nearly all people in Georgia Know of the memorial put before the county superintendents of education, the state board of education and the Georgia Legislature while in session. The manliness and timeliness of the petition have been acknowledged by THE NEW YORK TIMES Prof. John W. Davis, former Savannah, who has been elected president of the West Virginia Institute. MRS.

Mr. and Mrs. Graham will reside in their home, Dittmersville. the above bodies and a written communication has been sent to the Association through Prof. H. A. Hunt by the Committee on Education of the Ga. Legislature. It is enough to say that this fact means much to us. They not only acknowledged the memorial but agreed that the association was correct in its contention. The Albany Normal, under Dr. J. W. Holly, has been given an additional $10,000.00 while $50,000 has been given for the replacement of a building at the Ga. State College. All of this with: the the founding of the Albany school itself come very largely as a result of the hard work of the Georgia Association for the Advancement of Education Among Negroes.

E. King, editor and founder of the Dallas Express, the largest Negro newspaper In the Southwest, was shot and killed here this afternoon about 3 o'clock at 2811 Flora street. Mr. King lived only a few minutes after he was shot. He was shot in the upper right short Hattie C. Burleson, former personal secretary and boarding mistress of Mr. King, voluntarily surrendered immediately after the shooting and an affidavit charging her with murder was filed in Justice Barnett's court. Born in Mississippi, Mr. King was the son of Richard and Marguerite King. He was born in Macon, Miss., in 1866. He was educated in the schools of Macon. After completing his high school education he taught for a number of years in the public schools of Lauderdale and Jasper counties where he enjoyed the distinction of standing the best examination of any teachers in these counties, white or black. Seeing the need of a newspaper to defend the rights of his down trodden race, he began the publication of a paper known as "Fair Play," about 1885, which had a wide circulation and was successfully managed until forced to close his shop and leave the state on account of the position his paper took in the defense of his race. He came to Dallas in 1891 and secured a position as managing editor of the Western Star, published by Rev. E. W. D. Isaacs, in 1892. He began the publication of the Dallas Bee later known as the Dallas Express. He was editor-in-chief at the time of his death; and by his uncompromising stand for justice and right, the paper is considered one of the strongest publications in the southwest. The deceased is survived by a brother, John King, of Greenville, Miss., who will come for the remains and make funeral arrangements.

Searlett after having attended the National Negro Business League went to Mississippi, to join his wife and children, who have been visiting relatives and friends, all arriving home last Thursday. Dr. and Mrs. R. M. Harris left for Atlantic City, last Sunday morning, where they hope to take about two weeks' rest from the drug business. Dr. E. P. Landry of Savannah has charge of the drug store and will take care of all departments. Several of the public teachers have secretly married during the last scholastic year. In some cases they have inconvenienced the principal and in other cases they have not. The writer does not believe that the parties themselves believe that they have set the highest example of matrimonial union. While there is nothing necessarily immoral at heart, but appearances and examples for girls and boys we teach would be more wholesome if the regular way would obtain, that is let the public know before hand, whatever way you marry, what is going to happen. Then teachers cannot afford to do what the laity may do without much notice. The writer knows personally some parents whose hearts have been made to bleed just because of such marriages. I wonder if these teachers themselves would like for their children, if they should be so fortunate to have any, to spring upon them such surprise parties. Waycross was all ablaze last week with the fourth annual Hair Dressers Association of the Carter System and Women's Council. One hundred delegates were present representing five states. Two days' meeting was held in McGraw's auditorium. Beside being a summer school in the best methods of caring for the hair, Mine Carter has organized her two thousand agents into women's clubs that are doing all kinds of charitable work such as aiding the aged, sending worthy pupils to both public schools and to college, encouraging better housekeeping and more sanitary surroundings. These club women's re ports were one of the most interesting features of the convention. 1 were read covering a wide range of subjects that were practical in the affairs of life. The convention was welcomed to the city by a representative of the mayor, Hon. C. C. Thomas, secretary of the chamber of commerce. The delegates from the expressions on their faces and their easy way of moving about the city seemed to have appreciated the generous welcome given them. The convention closed with a grand concert given by the delegates assisted by local talent; a buffet lunch was served after the concert. Some of the distinguished visitors present were Rev. A. A. Mathis, U. S. Chaplain at Camp Gordon; Mrs. Howard of Morehouse College, Atlanta; Prof. Adair, pianist at Holsey Academy, Cordele; Mr. Jas. H. Porniss, Uniontown, Ala. Mme. Carter is a woman of fine personality and presides with much dignity and despatched business in a way that compares favorably with the best methods of chairmen of either sex or race. She is doing a wonderful work for the race through her agents. Mrs. E. L. Henderson president of the local club, with her associates deserves much credit for the way that she handled the convention. Capt. Bailey of the U. F. R. did gallant work in coaching the ladies out from the trains. In short Waycross feels that she has had a are chantaupua treat that will long be remembered.

St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 26—Plans for the colonization of American Negroes in a new free state to be set up on the Mexican border, said to have the support of the 200,000 members of the race who comprise the Free Will M. E. Church will be set in motion at the annual convention and conference of the church, to be held in St. Louis August 22. The adoption of the colonization program, according to the statement made yesterday by Dr. M. Madden of Oklahoma, a delegate to the convention, will eliminate entirely the race question from the list of problems facing the United States. "You cannot mix oil and water, nor an inferior race with a superior Dr. Madden. Our movement is nationwide, and has the support, not only of the 200,000 members of our congregation, but also of hundreds of thousands of independent members of both races throughout the country. Elimination of race trouble would not be the only advantage of the plan. Our state would act as a buffer between the United States and Mexico. Our people would be given rights guaranteed, but not fulfilled, by the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States." Dr. Madden's plan is that the new state be governed upon a modified territorial principle. Laws shall be made by the Negro citizens of the state, but shall be subject to veto by the United States government. Except for this veto, however, the colony shall be entirely self-governing, and relations with the United States shall be by treaty. The state shall consist of 160 square miles of territory; 500 on the American side of the Rio Grand and 500 on the Mexican side. The United States shall buy the American territory from the individual citizens, and the Mexican territory from the Mexican government. Negro property in the United states shall be appraised and bought up by the government, but emigration shall not be compulsory. ARRESTED FOR SOLICITING (Associated Negro Press) Lewiston, Mo. Aug.--Through the efficient system which is a part of the modern chamber of commerce of the cities, no solicitor gets far on the local field before there is some understanding as to the purpose of his or her work and his equipment with the proper credentials for conducting such work. Two colored women were among the latest to be stopped by this system. The women were soliciting funds for a home for colored orphans to be located at Roxbury, Mass., in Lewiston. Tuesday, when they were brought to a halt when some of the members of the chamber of commerce began to call for the credentials. They were escorted to the office of Chief Field, where they explained their mission, which appeared perfectly ad right, but they lacked the written license required by law. They were quickly brought into the Auburn police headquarters where they began soliciting funds and the same friendly conference took place. The women explained that they had done this work for the past 15 years and had never had any trouble before. NEGROES MAKING GOOD IN WINTER VINE Pittsburg, Pa., Aug.—Among the best working members of the district organization of the United Mine Workers are those of the Negro race. Of these more than 3,000 carry union cards and are considered true and uniting workers for the cause. One of the most prominent of the race is Samuel L. Pangburn, who is kept busy as a district organizer. He is, by reason of his experience and environments, well fitted for the work. He is a Pittsburg burger and is well acquainted in the mining fields of Western Pennsylvania. Pangburn was born in Jefferson township, Allegheny county, August 15, 1872. At the age of 2 his parents moved to Elizabeth where he attended the common schools and graduated therefrom. He then took a course in shortland and commercial study at the Duquesne Business College, from which he was graduated in 1892. When he reached his majority he took an active part in politics and in January, 1895, received an appointment in the sheriff's office of Allegheny county as official stenographer. He held this position until January, 1904, when he lost his position by reason of a change of power of political factions. MAMMOTH MUSICAL TO BE GIVEN NEXT MONTH Proceeds to Help National Association For Needed Work Among Negroes (Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 27—The ministers of all the colored churches of the city have promised their choirs and cooperation in a big musical that will be given at the Auditorium-Armory, Sept. 2. when a chorus of several hundred voices will render some of the best known music of the race, including national airs, plantation melodies and DIFFICULT TO FIND WORK FOR COLORED UNION MEN (Associated, Nego Press) (Associated Negro Press). New York, N. Y., Ang.—New York discriminates against Negro workers, say authorities endeavoring to place those who are out of employment. At though the American Federation of Labor has withdrawn opposition to their becoming members of labor organizations, it is difficult to find positions for them. Prince L. Edwoods, superintendent of the local bureau of employment of the New York department of labor, calls attention to a situation which he says is causing hardship to many deserving Negro men and women who are in need of work. He cites instances of four skilled workmen, painters, whom he supplied to a Christian institution, receptly, but who on arriving at the job were not permitted to go to work. TO OPEN OFFICE BUILDING FOR NEGRO TENANTS Atlanta, Ga., Aug.-The old Calico House, at Auburn avenue and Courtland street, and occupied at present by the Wesley Memorial Hospital, has been sold to H. E. Perry, colored, president of the Standard Life Insurance Company, and, also, president of the Service Company of Atlanta. It is the purpose of the new owner to convert the property into an office building for the accommodation of Negro tenants, lawyers, physicians, fraternal associations, insurance companies and commercial agencies. In addition to the Calico House property Perry Las purchased, also, the Auburn avenue property immediately adjoining the Hospital, numbering 115 and 119, making dimensions of the entire site, 200 by 150.

SATURDAY AUGUST 30, 1919 CHANGING OPINION That the public, opinion, north and south, on the race question has undergone a positive change following the recent riots in Washington and Chicago, there can be no little doubt. Those who have ignored race friction or counted it as merely local, have come to realize that it is far from being merely local and minor, characteristic of peculiar local conditions, and have come to understand that practically the same causes underlay the bloody clashes at Springfield, East St. Louis, Washington and Chicago, if not those which have in southern communities. In northern communities, these outbursts are not altogether primarily founded on race antagonism, although differences of race came in to separate the contenders into well-defined groups of combatants. Foremost among the causes underlaying these large clashes in the big cities are the economic and industrial struggle now acute among the middle and laboring clashes, white and black. Industrially, resulting from the fierce competition $ \mathsf{n} $ to furnish the labor supply in the chief industries in the big centers, since the influx of Negroes to the big manufacturing centers has given these big employers an additional and satisfactory supply. Economic, because it makes the masses of white workers of the north, including many foreigners, less independent and arbitrary before the big employers of labor, now that it is less difficult to replace such labor. Economic again, or sociological, because the relatively high wage paid to Negro common labor $ \mathsf{n} $ a greater variety of industries, has created a new order of Negro workingmen, with a new demand for a higher standard of living. This new and higher standard of living at first manifested itself in a strong and determined desire for better housing, resulting in a very open and pronounced invasion of Negro home owners into neighborhood where formerly, because of the industrial slavery which bound Negro workers, only white wage earners could live. These encroachments are pronounced and increasing notably in Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, Philadelphia and other large centers. The cause is simple; greater economic strength of Negro workers, brought about by wider industrial opportunity and better wages. Thinking Americans concede that ten millions of black Americans by every right are entitled to fullest industrial opportunity; and it necessarily follows that, upon the principle that "a laborer is worthy of his hire." Negro workers are entitled to such of the benefits of their labor and skill as their better income can bring to them. The chief of these is better living conditions. Resentment arises in localities where Negroes purchase property which formerly Negroes could not own, and those who object to Negro neighbors, however decent and well deported, resort to many forms of mischief, from verbal intimidation to bombing. It has proven unless, however, for Negroes expecting it, have provided to defend themselves against it by all lawful means. On the job, in the plants, white workers through their organizations or unions, have resorted to every means, including strike, intimidating their employers, intimidating Negro workers, destroying property and equipment of the plants and the like, to remove Negro labor from competition with white. Employers have not only refused to comply with their demand, but, moreover, have sought to encourage and protect Negro labor at its work, and Negro labor has justified that interest of its employers by increased efficiency and a refusal to be terrorized and made afraid. And so it comes about that, here and to seek to unionize Negro workers, not there, white unions have been forced to help the black workers but to re-establish their former independence and measure of control of industry. We are beginning to feel that out of this riot and clash, fullest freedom and opportunity and fair play will result. If men refuse to be "bullied," they must be treated, with on a basis of mutual helpfulness and cooperation. JOHN R. SHILLADY The attack made recently by Texans upon the person of John R. Shillady, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, following an address at Houston, Texas, can only accentuate the determination of that splendid man, and further fire the spirit of the splendid organization of which he is the very competent executive. Mr. Shillady represents that type of true Americanism which runs true to the lofty ideals of justice and freedom and liberty upon which this great commonwealth was founded. He is of the same spirit which inspired Lorejoy and Summer and Phillips in the stormy days forreunning the Civil war. His is the will which force cannot terrorize and. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE intimidate and subdue. Mr. Sbillady represents a great principle—a program of latter-day abolition and emancipation. Attacking the man does not destroy the principle nor weaken its program. That principle and that program are founded on right and cannot succumb to force and intimidation, cannot yield. It will go on, however, gaining force through the days when men think more and more are more and more moved by their convictions of right and fair play, and feel the courage to enlist in the cause. Those who respect law and order will not warm up over the arbitrary and evasive reply of Governor Hobby to an inquiry from the National Headquarters regarding the punishing those who made the attack. They see in it a yielding to the spirit of the mob, and a went in determination to support the old traditions of oppression which numbers the South. They come to realize that the temper of the South on this issue is reached the point of desperation, and that the "old guard" is entrenched to make a "last stand." Many of the prominent newspapers of the country have rightfully charged that it is a shame and disgrace upon our civilization that such a thing has been allowed to occur without vigorous steps being taken to punish those responsible for it. It ought to cause a re-awakening and its affirmation of determination among big thinking Americans, who love our ideals of justice and fair play, and ought to come a great many of those who have been passive on the program which Mr. Shillady represents to take a forceful hand in supporting him. We believe it will. If we recall the days leading up to the crisis which brought about emancipation to Negroes in America we see an era and a condition, in all respects, analogous to the present, and there is every Lope that those whose cause is founded on right will prevail. We shall watch the further attitude of the Texans in this matter and see if there is left there any public sentiment to uphold the traditions and virtues which have made America foremost in the international councils of democracy and peace. MUSIC PUPILS HOLD RECITAL On last Monday evening the music pupils of Mrs. J. G. M. Curtright appeared in a class recital at her studio.

Lowden yesterday, thru Dr. Francis W. Shepardson, director of the Illinois department of registration and education, announced the membership of his commission for the investigation of relationship between whites and Negroes in Chicago. Attorney Edgar A. Bancroft heads the committee on which includes members of both races. Its personel is as follows: Julius Rosenwald, president of Sears-Roehuck & Co.; Victor F. Lawson, publisher of the Chicago Daily News; Edgar Osgood Brown, attorney and president of the Chicago branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Harry Eugene Kelly, attorney; Wm. Scott Bond, real estate dealer; Dr. Cleveland Hall, an official of the Urban League; Edward H. Morris, attorney; Robert S. Abbott, editor of the Chicago Defender; Adelbert H. Roberts, sponsor in the fifty-first general assembly of a bill advocating the appointment of an inter-social commission: George H. Jackson, business man; Dr. L. K. Williams, pastor of Olivet Baptist church. Commenting on the appointment the governor's statement continues: I have sought the most representative men of both races. I have not even asked them whether they have views as to how the condition may be met. "This is a tribunal constituted to get the facts and interpret them and find the way out. "These riots were the work of the worst elements of both races and did not represent, a majority of either. "The two races are here and will remain here. The great majority of each realizes the necessity for living on terms of cordial good will and respect. That condition must be brought about. To say it cannot is to confess the failure of self-government: "I offer no solution of the problem. I do know it cannot be solved by mob violence." The committee probably will meet in the next ten days. WHITE CITIZEN MAKES (Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., Aug. 27-A pominent white citizen writing the Chicago Daily News, made the following remarkable statement regarding "race adjustment." D. Davidson's argument on the Negro problem is different from others only in that it is a more clearly defined summary of the average white man's attitude toward the Negro. None of the "three solutions" submitted by him will solve the problem. There is only one solution. Give the Negro the unreserved rights of an American citizen as guaranteed under the constitution of the United States. Grant him the privilege of making himself fit. Stop trying to make a place for him. Let him find his own individual place, and he will neither crowd, antagonize nor humiliate others. It would be little short of calamity to legalize any form of injustice against the Negro. America has enemies within and without and is in no position to make an enemy of the black man. The wise words of Ex-President Taft "are as apples of gold." Yet it is not possible to stop the cries of an oppressed people. The Negro's papers and magazines are his only means of expression. There are white men and women in Chicago possessed of such integrity, such fineness and goodness of heart that they champion the Negro's cause from a keen sense of justice and honor. To such men and women the Negro owes and acknowledges a great debt. CHURCH OF LIVING GOD SEEKS INCORPORATION Louisville, Ky.; Aug. 26—Articles of Incorporation were filed yesterday by the General Assembly of the Church of the Living God, the pillar of Ground and Truth.

C., Aug. 26-It is probable that the Union Republican party will put a Negro candidate in, the general election for Congress to succeed A. F. Lever, who resigned to accept a position on the federal land loan board, according to L. A. Hawkins, a Negro of Columbia, district chairman of the party. A meeting of county ex- Hawkins stated that while nothing definite had been done, it was almost certain that a subsequent meeting, in the near future, a candidate will be named. In the meantime Hawkins said he would communicate with the white Republicans and other white friends in this district and ask them for suggestions.

C. Aug. 25—The official call for the fourth annual session of the National Race Congress of America, to be held in this city October 7th, has been issued by the president, Rev. W. H. Jernagin, and is being widely circulated through the press of the country. This congress is to be known as the "Suffrage Session," and the clans from every section of the land are getting ready to gather at the nation's capital to emphasize the importance of the ballot as a solvent for many of the ills that beset America's 12,000,000 Negro citizens. The call states the case with clearness and force and Dr. Jernagin and his co-workers are urging that large delegations be sent here from the various sections to consider ways and means for the betterment of the civic and economic status of our people. Able speakers will present the issues and the discussions will be broad and thorough, and the steps to be taken to crystallize thought into action will be prompt and vigorous. All phases of the intricate "race problem" will be treated. Hon: F. M. Hercules, secretary of the Peoples of Africa, with headquarters at London, England, has accepted an invitation to address the congress and Congressman Matthew Agady, of Liberia, is also expected to address the convention. Invitations have been extended to the Hon. C. D. King, president of the Republic of Liberia; Hon. Blaise Diagne, a member of the House of Deputies of the Republic of France, who has had charge of the Colonial Troops, who fought so valiantly for liberty and democracy throughout the world war. M. Diagne presided over the deliberations of the recent Pan-African Congress in Paris. The Abyssinian government promised, through its envoys, to send a messenger of cheer. Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor of Plymouth Congregational church, this city, has accepted the post of field agent for the congress, and will travel extensively in the next few weeks to place before the country the plans and purposes of the congress. He will be assisted by Rev. Daniel L. Reed, the well-known lecturer and author; Rev. A. A. Grahams, of Phoebus, Va. Rev. J. N. C. Coggins, and a number of others yet to be named. Local units of congress now in existence will be stimulated and many new ones will be instituted. It is regarded as especially important that units be established in every locality where colored people are found. Prof. John R. Hawkins' executive secretary of the Emergency Defense Fund, under the auspices of the National Race Congress, is actively pushing the collection of the $250,000 fund authorized by the organization for the general protection of colored Americans, and encouraging progress is being made. The congress is also cooperating with the citizens of Washington in defending innocent colored men who were arrested during the recent riot for no other reason than that they dared to protect their lives and their homes from the violence of the mob, when the authorities of the law failed to do so. Arrangements have been made by Prof. Hawkins with the Bar Association to provide every colored man with able counsel and no worthy case will go undefended when brought before the courts. Contributions in behalf of this cause and for the $250,000 general defense fund may be sent to Prof. Hawkins at 1541 14th street, northwest. Any sum, however small, will be welcomed and accounted for. Correspondence relative to the October "Suffrage Session" of the National Race Congress, is invited by President Jernigan, who can be reached at 901 3rd street. N. W. Washington, D. C. The forthcoming meeting promises to be the very best of the series, and that much good will be accomplished for all the people this frank exchange of counsel is already assured. Labor Day Appeal Washington, D. 1 C., Aug. 20—The Director of Negro Economics, Dr. Geo. E. Haynes, has issued the following Labor Day Appeal: This Labor Day is one of special thanksgiving. On this day a year ago we were engaged in a great conflict which demanded complete unity among all the peoples of the nation in order that we might lay a firmer foundation for the future ideals of our government. In this unity of effort, patriotism and sacrifice, ten million Negroes did their part in the army, in the workshops and on the farms. On this Labor Day we should pause, briefly, to consider not only their accomplishments and their obligations, but, also, their equities in all that is American. The Department of Labor, through Its Division of Négro Economics, has fostered the welfare of Negro labor by enlisting the voluntary assistance of white and colored citizens in building up a better feeling between the white and colored workers and white employers, in stimulating the efficiency of Negro workers in more intensive efforts and in promoting more equitable wages and working conditions. This program of the Department of Labor has resulted in increased employment, greater efficiency and better understanding between workers and employers. Such results as these have strengthened our citizenship, increased our ideals as workers and gained greater respect from employers. The present opportunity of the Negro worker may justly call for o continuation of such efforts to increase their efficiency, to improve their conditions and to promote better relations between the races. The achievements of Negro workers well known. The rewards of the Negro in all American opportunities should keep pace with his worth as a workman by insuring equal opportunity and full justice to workers. During these reconstruction days, so much depends upon the churches and the ministers that the Director of Negro Economics appears to them for special assistance at this Labor Day period along two lines. 1. That a sermon be preached stressing (a) Lessons which the great war has taught us about the connection between labor and production; (b) dignity of labor; (c) demand and reward for regular and efficient work; (d) necessity for co-operation between workers, and, especially, better understanding between white workers, Negro workers and white employers; and (e) call for improving home and working conditions of Negroes. 2. The churches can also assist finding out who the returned soldiers are, what their employment problems are, and how to help them to secure work, putting them in touch with the various agencies which are actively assisting them. To this end the visions of the Department of Labor are at the service of all. STATESBORO, GA.

Wilder Breaks All Collection Records of His Company By collecting 417 per cent on his debit during the agents' campaign rally of the Guaranty Mutual Health and Life Insurance Company, which was conducted from August 11 to 16, inclusive, Mr. William A. Wilder smashed all existing collection records of the company's agents and won for himself the much coveted honor of being the unspotted champion of this popular and well known industrial insurance company. The campaign was not a local affair, but was conducted by the company in all of its many districts throughout the state and, therefore, the honor for winning first place in the spirited contest just closed off of much interest throughout the state. The total amount collected by Mr. Wilder during the six days' campaign was $136.40 on a weekly debit of $104.35, or 417 per cent. This is the biggest per centage collection ever made by an agent of this company and ```markdown ``` entitles Mr. Wilder to the highest place of honor among the hundreds of agents which his company has on the field. This is the fourth successive year that Mr. Wilder has won this contest. He is one of the most progressive agents in the employ of his company and is well-known in insurance circles, and attributes his success in these annual rallies to the unstinted support of his many patrons.

MEMORIALS LOWMAN—In sad but loving remembrance of Beatrice Pinckney Lowman, who departed this life August 31, 1917 Thou hast left us dear In a land of fear But some glad day Twill soon be oer, Where partings are not known We lored thee dear And did our best To keep thee here with us But God who knows And does all things well Took thee home to rest. A loving father, Frank Pinckney Devoted brother, Harold Pinckney ELLIOTT—My dear mother, Ptoebe Ann Ellott, most noble and devoted mottier, deceased Aug 20, 1918. The month of August again is here The saddest to me of all the year: It was a bitter pain, a shock severe, To part with one I love so dear; For the golden gate was open A gentle voice said come And with farewell unspoken Mama sweetly entered home. Her departing words were, Jesus the very thought of thee; That sweetness fills my heart, More sweetness than it is to thee, And in thy presence rest SHEMETELLA—Dedicated to the memory of my beloved husband who died Aug. 18, 1819. God in His appointed time has taken thee from our midst, hearts wrecked with sorrow, helpless we stand, yet we should not desist, the Trinity does all things well his laws must be obeyed. He rides the seas. He stills the storms and the death sleep He sways. Oh we miss you as our family leader of that heavenly host; you've crossed the Jordan and the heavenly things you see. Sleep on, Theodore, take thy rest, we loved you but Jesus love thee best. Loving wife, Amanda M. Shemetella Nephew, Joseph A. Prince Sister, Mrs. Mary McKnight Paris Island, S. C. Brother, Mr. Harper Shemetella Greenville, S. C. LILLIAN—In sad but loving memory of our darling Lillian who departed this life Aug. 20, 1916. Gently the stars are shining Down on her silent grave. Where lies our daughter sleeping The one we loved so well Yet could not save. We often sit and think of her When we are all alone For memory is the only thing That grief can call its own More and more each day we miss her, Friends may think the wound is healed But they little know the sorrow That lies within our hearts concealed Yet, some day we hope to meet her, On the bright celestial shore. ROBINSON—In memory of Mr. Ell- Jah Robinson, died Aug 11,1914 in Sav- annah, Ga. Five years ago to day. Since my dear husband passed away His memory is as fresh today. As the hour he passed away In the ghyehe he is sleeping No more sorrow, no more weeping He is resting in that city Where we hope to meet some day. Sleep on dear one. I will meet you When the mist have rolled away. SPRING—In loving remembrance of Mrs. Lucy A. Spring who died Aug. 21, 1917. The rose that is sweetest and fairest Is the one that is killed by the frost; The bud that is sweetest and dearest, Is the darling we have, lost. The Spring Family. McCOMBS—In sad and loving remembrance of our dear mother, Viola McCombs, who departed this life, two years ago. Daughter, Lula Burson Son In Law, Columbus Burson Burke—In heartfelt memory of our our loved one, Annie Washington. Burke who entered the great beyond Aug. 20, 1916.
