SATURDAY SEPT. 13, 1919 Plans For Big West Broad Street Theatre and Hotel Being Worked Out by Architects BUILDINGS WILL Occupy A VERY PROMINENT SITE JUST ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE UNION DEPOT. Syndicate Received Charter Last Week Theatre to be Run in Conjunction with the Quality Amusement Company of New York and Philadelphia, in which the Local Syndicate Has a Large-Interest—Plans for the New Project Were Perfected by President Williams of Wage Earners Bank While in the North Last Week. Drawings and plans for the big theatre and hotel soon to be constructed in the big block of West Broad St. proPERTY between Alice and Wayne streets by the Consolidated Realty Corporation are already being worked out by New York architects, experts in modern theatre and hotel construction, President L.

It will be manned and operated entirely by Negro officials and employees. These three new structures, to together with the bank building, which will be incorporated into the big structure, will occupy the entire block will conform to a single, central mot The public has never had the chance to invest in a business which gave better prospects for large returns on their money. The big block of reality will represent the soundest and most permanent security ever offered. Located just across the corner from the Union Station, where scores of trains pass each day, and on the business thriftafe of growing Savannah, and directly in the path along which thousands of Negro people and white pass and repass every day, it would be impossible to exaggerate the excellent character of the security at investm at and the certainty of large income. The theatre which will occupy the corner of the big property becomes at once another link in the chain of beautiful theatres, owned and operated by the Quality Amusement Syndicate in the principal cities of the East and West, and will bring to the amusement lovers of Savannah the several groups of Negro stage stars famous over the country as the LaFayette Players, and now playing to capacity houses in New York, Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia and other cities, in light drama and musical comedy. The local corporation holds an interest in the Quality Company and the appearance of these renowned performers in the Savannah playhouse is an assured fact. The income from this source is expected to pay handsome dividends to the stockholders of the big corporation. The hotel will be modern in every appointment, with a variety of equipment and service to meet the requirements of all the people. In addition to the hotel dining-room, proper, a modern Cafe and dining room to cater to transients and local people will be operated.

It will be manned and operated entirely by Negro officials and employees. These three new structures, together with the bank building, which will be incorporated into the big structure, will occupy the entire block, will conform to a single, central motif in architectural design, and beauty of construction, and will furnish a brilliant example of the wonderful progress of Negro people in the field of co-operative enterprise and a veritable monument to Negro business genius. It will raise still higher the status of the Savannah Negro in the business circles of the world. Much like the stock of the Wage Earners, Savings Bank, with, which the big corporation is allied, the stock of the big company will be selling at a premium shortly following the opening of the books of the company. Wage Earners stock, of the per value of $10.00 per share has a market value of $20.00 per share, and can rarely be obtained at that high premium. The company is now open to receive subscriptions to the Preferred, guaranteed dividend-bearing stock of the corporation at $10.00 per share, and earliest subscribers will get the benefit of the stock at figures which hold for a very short while only. Application for stock can be made by addressing the Consolidated Realty Corporation, Wage Earners Bank building. Subscription blanks will be furnished upon request.

The average man, from the white man's point of view, cannot conceive just how largely the newspapers of the land lend themselves to the business of promoting the wave of strife and lawlessness which is sweeping the country like wildfire these days. Unfortunately, and we mean unfortunately, the great masses of the people regard newspaper comment and account as always being well fortified in truth, well based upon investigation, and eminently fair in presentation of such "news" matter as is furnished. The public, generally, does not know the zeal of news-gatherers, is not aware of the existing rivalry of competing daily publications to put out "first accounts," "fullest and first stories" of crimes, tragedies and scandals which the American reader loves to feed on. Average people have not realized that in most instances zealous reporters will "dress-up" their stories, supply the dramatic, and ornament the fundamental and quasi-correct with color and trappings which tend to grip and tune the imagination of the reader. Fact is, the truth is so often and so far distorted in such zeal and rivalry and anticipation, that a reader is very often knocked off his feet with accounts of what he has actually witnessed with his own eyes, so exaggerated and so distorted are the details. In times of strife and conflict among the people, labor troubles and race rioting, the unscrupulous and ambitious reporter runs anack, runs wild, overstating the tenements and seriousness of critical situation, suggesting and anticipating possible serious undertakings and "turns", repeating and reproducing idle and incendiary boast and threat, adding fuel to the flames. It can be said in all truth that the Atlanta News was the direct cause of the Atlanta riot of 1900. The city's investigation put the blame upon this paper and, as a result of the finding, Atlanta public opinion put the paper out of existence. This paper had published a series of accounts of "assaults on women" in the red letter wooden type "extras," all of which were found to have been with out foundation in fact. In a notable instance of which we are well aware, the people and vicinity involved, were absolutely ignorant of any semblance of trouble such as was carried in glaring headlines by this inflaming sheet. In Washington last month, the same methods were pursued, a certain newspaper publishing accounts of a series of attacks on "women" in the fashionable Chevy Chase section, which accounts later upon investigation turned out to be largely if not altogether mythical. This newspaper, after the public mind had been inflamed to the point of combustion, added oil to the flames by publishing that various groups of charged civilians and ex-soldiers would form at a certain rendezvous, from which place they would proceed to "clean up" for the Negroes. Investigation has indicated that all this has resulted from a well-fail and studied propaganda on the part of some hating clique which has assumed the burden of the world's difficulties to work out through terror and bloodshed. In some instances, in the above affair, it has been impossible to discover the victim who made the alarm which was the basis of the newspaper account. The newspaper most culpable is now sought to be indicted on the charge of "fictitious riot." In all other instances of riot and bloodshed throughout the country, news papers have aggravated perilous situations by their zeal and anticipating possible resulting situations. In Mississippi, recently, a newspaper published that a Negro already in the hands of the mob, would be lynched at a certain place in the town at five o'clock on that Sunday afternoon, so as to insure a large attendance upon the orgies. Invitations were thus extended to all women and children of the region round about to come out to the man-killing. It strikes the Negro strange, passing strange, that the same problem, vision and intuition which can give information as to details in advance of these "ceremonies" of barbarism and cannibalism, cannot discover the leaders and directors of the "ceremonies" for the purpose of convicting them of the crime of lynching. To digress, it is notable that in the last two or three years, most lynchings have occurred on Sundays, as if when the people are less engaged at their work, they find amusement and recreation in lynching and burning Negroes at the stake. It is also noteworthy that most lynchings have taken place in the corporate limits of cities, suggesting the absolute disregard of the mob for law and their belief that nothing will be done to them, on the one hand, and the acquiescence and condonation of the police authority and the approval of the public opinion on the other. Certainly these conclusions are logi- cal and consistent, if unwavered in the light of facts discoverable. "By their fruits, ye shall know them." In nearly every community, in conflict between Negro and white man, newspaper accounts invariably place the burden of guilt and responsibility upon the shoulder of the black man, even anticipate the finding and outcome of the court hearing in the matter, and thus prepare an atmosphere highly fatal and prejudicial to the case of the black man. Many newspapers and newspaper men, especially in the few cities yet free of the disgrace of mob violence, will deny this; but it is because their own minds and consciences are so warped with the conviction of Negro inferiority that they unconsciously are possessed and obsessed by the dual standard of justice universally met with in the south, and to growing extent in the north. The psychology of the average man on the subject of race relationship unconsciously determines all advantage in favor of the white man, arrogates all interpretation and judgment of facts in that way, and after all in this view" would be only human that absolute justice and fairness are unthinkable and impossible. The trouble is, the hypothesis is wrong. developed through generations of learning and observing that view. The mental obliquity is such as to preclude any sense of abstract justice. It must not be forgotten that there are thousands of learned Negroes, learned in the sense that white men are learned, and possessed of the same saneness and good judgment. This is no boast, no intemperate wall. It is fact. These men must be credited with the capacity for reasoning logically after fact and condition, and with the faculty for deriving conclusions. The good judgment of thinking Negro men is now, and always has been, that Negro people should realize their right of citizenship, protection of life and property in the enjoyment of that right, through the orderly processes of law. If not, why have we through generations sought redress through the courts, through guarantees in the Constitution, and through petition, countless petitions, to state and national authority? Now, at this very moment, Negro organizations, are appealing to local authority everywhere, and to national authority, for the re-enthancement of law. Re-enthancement, yes, spoken advisedly, for all over the nation the law is dethroned, while the people including some of the lawmakers, and exponents of the law, are gone out on the "man-hunt," even if that hunt be for a white man in Texas. Reason, law, yes, let us have it. Negroes want reason, we want the law to prevail everywhere, all the time. We do not want to be charged with lack of reason, however, by those whose mental poise has been upset by age-long abuse of power directed and inspired by ingrained dual standards. It will not suffice in the present turmoil, to charge leading Negroes who do not subscribe to the chantings of certain ones of the race, that they are intemperate and insane. The facts stare us in the face, are not to be bead or avoided. The fact of lynching, the fact of oppression, the fact of rioting and killing innocent Negroes all over the country, every day. Who can get around it? Who can deny such multitude of instances, such widespread occurrence, such immunity of those responsible, such wanton flaunting of the red flag in the face of the law as going into the very jails to lynch those who have surrendered themselves to the courts. (Berry Washington, the seventy year old Negro of Georgia and other instances, the killing of Anthony Crawford on the Courthouse steps while he was in the custody of the sheriff, such apparent acquiescence of the constituted authority? The psychology of the thinking Negro of the present time is uncertain in its dilemma, confused. It hardly knows whether to turn for relief, for succor. The laws of the state have failed, the public opinion is nort if not condoning, the Constitution of the nation is deaf or avoiding. We drift, praying that some curious stroke of fate will "turn the tangle straight," for it appears in the powerlessness of law and strangled justice, only the "Fates that wind the bob in and cut the skein" can point the way out of this darkness to the light. The vaunted Democracy for which the war was fought, and the spiritual enthusiasm awakened by the bloody war, both have failed to materialize so far is the Negro is concerned. Proof that these are but the thinnest myths block those of us who made sacrifices everywhere. Much of our trouble, as we have said, results from the biased representations of zealous or partial newspapers. That these slns are committed unwittingly or unintentionally in some instances matters little to those who suffer the dire consequences of such misguided acts. But we have lope, and prayer and faith are still left.

PROMOTER "BLACK STAR LINE" UNDER ARREST New York, Sept. 10.—Marcus Garvey colored, editor of the Negro World, was found guilty of criminal libel by Magistrate Simpson in Jefferson Market Court yesterday. He was held in $3,000 bail for trial in special sessions, the complainant being Assist. District Attorney Edwin P. Kilroe. Mr. Kilroe complained that Garvey printed in August issue of his paper articles calculated to cast on him "ridicule, hatred, contempt or coloquy." Garvey is the promoter of the "Black Star Line," which he has advertised as a steamship line between this country, Africa, Central and South America and the West Indies for the Negro race only. Last Monday night at Carnegie Hall Garvey delivered an address in which he condemned the lynching of Negroes in the South, and said in effect that if the Negroes would press a button when such lynchings occurred a white man in Africa would be treated similarly. Transcripts of this speech are now being investigated by the District Attorney's office and the Lusk Legislative Committee.

We have had Victory-Bread in America, Victory Wine in France, and Victory. Loan the world over. And each of us has contributed our mite to bring about victory that the world might be free. In this drive, about to be launched by the deputies and supervisors under the leadership of Madam M. M. Hailey and Brother H. G. Pughsley, the thirty thousand Odd Fellows of our jurisdiction are putting the drive on to free the Order in our State from every hindrance that doth so easily beset it. There are two conditions entering into the life of mankind which create debt without providing for its payment—and these elements are war and courts. The world war has just saddled upon the world a debt of more than an hundred billion dollars without creating a single asset with which to discharge it. And in like manner, the three years war of lawsuits has saddled upon the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of America, Jurisdiction of Georgia, a debt to the widows and orphans, which must be discharged without the sacrifice of a single asset. This debt is a personal obligation of every member, and it is up to every member to share the responsibility equally. We had as well be frank with ourselves. Like the world which left a debt of an hundred billion dollars to be paid by taxation, direct and indirect, the lawsuits imposed upon us left an indebtedness of one hundred fifty thousand, more or less, for twenty-five thousand men and women to meet. This is our debt, and we cannot shirk the responsibility; and the Victory Drive has been launched for the purpose of appealing to the friendship, the love and generosity of the brother and sister to discharge it. We are approximately thirty thousand strong, which entails and obligation of five dollars per capita, or her part of the responsibility and let us raise enough money in one day to pay off every death claim and every other legal obligation charged against us. This can be done; it must be done, and it will be done. It is our home affair; it is a family affair. We were thrown into court against our will and without our consent, and we have done the best we could. We are solvent, but we are greatly embarrassed because we are tired of hearing the cries of widows and orphans for the endowment justly due them. So, now, let us not waver. Let us not complain. Let us tax ourselves without the weight of the law and make the Victory Drive a success. We have just emerged from the rally in which forty-five thousand dollars were raised and paid on our indebtedness. And with one strong pull, inspired by the service we will render God and humanity when we discharge every obligation we owe the widows and orphans, we can, ere the fourth Thursday in November, 1919, raise four times forty-five thousand dollars. First: The drive was organized and will be operated by the Deputies and Supervisors' Institute; the deputies and supervisors themselves, under the leadership of Madam M. M. Hailey, District Most Noble Governor, having pledged at Macon an average of ten dollars per capita insuring one thousand dollars. Second. There will be held on the fourth Thursday in November a Victory Division Meeting in every division for the purpose of receiving the reports and funds of the lodges and households in the respective divisions; the households reporting directly to the supervisor and the lodges to the deputy, the deputies and supervisors acting in their respective divisions in a way similar to the functions of the presiding elders of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, being held responsible by the Victory Committee of which Brother H. G. Pughsley, District Grand Master, is chairman and Madam M. M. Hailey, District Most Noble Governor, secretary. Third. The deputies and supervisors of each and every division will visit in person each and every lodge and household in their respective divisions and explain and impress the importance of the drive, what it means to the Order and to the race. Fourth. On the 28th of November, the day following the Victory Division Meetings, the deputies and supervisors will report to the General Manager at Atlanta the receipts from their respective divisions and the Victory Committee will canvass, count H. G. PUGHSLEY, Chairman AMMIE FREEMAN, Vice Chairman MAMIE M. HAILEY, Secretary DR. M. H. COBB, Chief Deputy LUCILE D. CLARK, Supervisor and consolidate the returns and turn the money over to the treasurer, who will proceed to issue checks daily until every obligation is discharged—every widow and orpran's heart cheered. This can be done and shall be done if every member in the State will do his or her duty. After crediting the forty-five thousand dollars rally fund, the indebtedness distributed equally among the members amount approximately five dollars, which will give the Bureau of Endowment a clean bill of health and enable it to meet promptly every future obligation with a revision of our financial system. Fifth. Every member of the Order in the State will be seen personally. There will be no excuses for refusals. There will be no threats, no bull-dozing, no taxation if you do or do not—simply an appeal to your honor as an Odd Fellow, your integrity as a man or a woman and your love for your Order; race and humanity. Every member will be left upon his or her honor to act as their conscience shall dictate. There will be no taxation to force you in or out of the Order at the end of the Victory Drive. If you do not have enough of the spirit, of Friendship, Love and Truth within you to live up to your obligation and do or die, the matter will be left with you, God and your conscience. The Victory Committee believes that there will be no cowards, deserters, slackers or evaders, but everyone, jealous of the good name and reputation of the Order, will come forward and pay his or her five dollars to the deputy or supervisor in order to give Odd Fellowship in the State again a clean bill of health without sacrificing our assets. The Speakers Bureau will be in direct charge of Madam Lucile D. Clark. She will have immediate charge of that end of the Victory Drive of reaching the members of the Order personally whenever it is necessary, the following persons will be at the disposal of the Chairman of the Speakers' Bureau to be sent at the bureau's expense to visit any lodge or household which needs to have the plan and purposes of the drive exposed: See Se or Oe Gaeta SATE TTPRRMRRRNT SAT EG TD 8 re eG ee RE : ne Nore TSE RV ANNA TROON © SATURBAT, SerT AS, 1918 . . ._+PAGE NINE So ebb heehee = "2 os Pei eena ) SONVILLE, FLA, NEWS {base ball man changed the program’ [Ee bee eh er erie eek er rk Pere . a %.
