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.

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?

Ga. 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

Dallas, Tex., Aug. 2d—Colonel W. 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.

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. The improvement of the different pupils was indeed noticeable and too much praise could not be given Mr. J. A. Prince and Miss Editta Horizon and others. Mr. Prince rendered a vocal solo accompanied by Miss Lorrene Jefferson. Little Essie M. Curtright. Mr. Harper rendered a selection to the delight of the audience, also Miss Forres Bryan and Miss Thelma Hart. Mrs. Curtright rendered a selection which displayed her musical ability. An Illinois, daily says Mrs. Curtright is an artist of wonderful power, and her accompanying is perfect.
LETTER CARRIERS SENDS
DELEGATES TO CONVENTION At a recent meeting of the Forest City Branch No. 578 two delegates were elected to attend the convention of the National Association of Letter Carriers which will be held at Philadelphia. Messrs. M. B. Brantam and A. J. Andrews were selected to represent the branch and will leave Friday night in order to reach the convention at its opening session.
Another important matter attended to was the appointment of Messrs W. S. Lowry, C. A. Parks and I. M. Jackson as an advisory committee with whom questions on living conditions will be filed by all the local colored men in the service. After these have been compiled they will be taken to Atlanta by Mr. I. M. Jackson who has been elected representative, and presented to a Washington official who will be there to conduct hearings of representatives of several groups of civil service employees in Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi.

Savannah has in it the most progressive Negroes in the world, and they can "put over" the "Y". All they need to do is to "carry on" in the "Y": business. It. W. Gadsden, chairman.
A delightful program was pleasantly enjoyed by all present at the Y. M. C. A. meeting last Sunday afternoon. Rev. S. T. Redd delivered a very interesting as well as an instructive address: subject "The momentous question of the hour.' Mr. W. W. Hill delivered a very pleasing synopsis of his observations in St. Louis, 'Mo., touching especially upon the magnificent colored Y. M. C. A. in St. Louis and the National Negro Business League, of which he is local secretary. Several musical selections were given by Miss Alma Tyson and others.
Tomorrow's program at 4:30 will consist of an address by Rev. Father J. Henry Brown, archdeacon of the Protestant Episcopal church of the Georgia Diocese. There will also be musical numbers rendered by Misses Stoney, Green and others.

STATEMENT ON RIOTS
t ASASSOCIALOCU NOETO 2 TESS)
{ Chicago, Ii, Aug. 27—A pominent
white citizen writing the Chicago Da-
fy News, made the following remark-
able statement regarding “race ad-
justment.”* :
+ D. Davidsdn's argument. on the Ne-
grv problem is different from others
enly in that it is a more cleariy
efined Summary of the average white
pnan’s attitude toward the Negro.
None of the “three solusions’ sub-
mitted by him will splve the prob
lem. 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
neitker crowd, antagonize nor hum!-
Jiate others.
It would he little short of calamity
'to legalize any form of injustice
fagainst the Negro, America has ene-
mies within and without and is in no,
‘position to umke an enemy of the
yblack man,
* The wise words of Ex-President
‘Taft “are as apples of gold." Yet it
fg not possible to stop the eries of an|
loppressed people. The Negre’s pa-
pers and magazines are his only means
; expression, °
‘ ‘There are white men and women
in Chicago possessed of such integrity,
‘such fineness and goodness of heart
(rage they ckampion the Negro’s cause
'from a keen sense of justice and hon-
or. To such men and women the Ne-
‘gro owes and acknowledges a great
debt.

understanding between workers and

The present opportunity of the Ne-
