The Savannah Tribune. 1000 Longshoremen Tie Up Wharves Because Demands Are Refused VOL. XXXV MEN QUIT WORK SATURDAY AND STRIKE LOOKS LONG Ultimatum to Men Fails Many of the Strike Breakers Brought in Take Sides with Union and Ask Aid to Return to their Homes.—Men Say that Working Conditions at the Wharves Must be Bettered. Four steamships of the Ocean Steamship company are tied up in port because of the strike of about a thousand Negro longshoremen who are employed in loading and unloading them. The strike is one of the most complete that this port has ever witnessed and the probability of its coming to an early close does not seem likely as the company is standing its ground and the men will not budge a bit from their demands. The trouble seems to have had its origin some four months ago when a wage scale agreed on at the New Orleans, La., conference of longshoremen was presented to the steamship companies here for adoption. When presented to the local companies, the Merchant and Miners Transportation company is said to have flatly refused to agree to them while the men claim that the Ocean Steamship company consented to make the new wage scale affective in a reasonable length of time. The refusal of the Merchant and Miner's Transportation to adopt the new wage scale immediately caused a strike by the men who were working the, the strike continuing to the present day. The men working on the wharves of the Ocean Steamship company waited for the new arrangement to be put into operation and after a reasonable length of time and the new scale was not made affective by the company they became dissatisfied and sought to force their demands upon the company after all other means had failed. The local steamship officials and also those at headquarters in New York City were communicated with, but without bringing forth the results which the men desired. In the meantime the relationship between the company and the men became somewhat strained. The men claim that working conditions at the wharves grew very unpleasant and that a strike was imminent, due to the company's failure to put the new wage in scale in operation in a reasonable length of time and also the treatment which the men were receiving. The men claim that they were laid off for little or no cause whatever and that they were hollowed at and otherwise abused. Many of them claimed that if they reported for duty, wearing a union button, they were told that they were not needed, but that if they walked away from the office and removed the button and then reported for work, they were immediately put on the job. They further claim that the Negro headers were taken away from their jobs and made to work with the labor gangs, their places being filled by the white steerers. About three weeks ago President Paris Hamilton of Local 1010 of the International Longshoremen's Association, the organization controlling the men affected by conditions at the Ocean Steamship company's wharves, and Dr. O. C. Clayhorne, the physician of the local, went north in the interest of the fight the men are making. They went from here to Buffalo, N. X., where they placed their grievances before T. V. O'Connor, president of the International Longshoremen's Association. Mr. O'Connor accompanied the Savannah representatives to New York where the three had a conference with R. R. Richardson, then federal manager of the Ocean Steamship company. The matter of the wage scale and also that of the unpleasant treatment accorded the men were thoroughly discussed and, as a result, the local representatives returned home, feeling that their contentions would receive just consideration by the steamship authorities. Instead of conditions being bettered, the men here said that they had grown worse and they immediately got in touch with National President O'Connor who is said to have again conferred with the steamship authorities at headquarters. R. is said that as a result of the conference Mr. O'Connor wired the men here that Mr. Richardson had been informed that the mistreatment which the Savannah men complained of had not been substantiated and that investigation had shown that there was no ground for dissatisfaction by the men regardless of the fifty affidavits which were presented from the men showing ill-treatment. This wire from Mr. O'Connor resulted in the men holding a meeting on Friday night of last week, at which time they decided to go on a strike the next morning. Accordingly, every man reported last Saturday morning and the company was informed that they were going on a strike and would not return until their demands were met. They walked away quietly and have not as yet returned. Early this week the steamship antholites are said to have issued an ultimatum to the men to the effect that if they were not back at work Wednesday their places would be filled. The men ignored the decree and not still holding firm to their demands and say that they have no thought of a back until they have their demands fully met with. One day since the strike about fifty (Continued on Page Eight) PRESIDENT BARBER SUPPLY COMPANY IN THE CITY Clifford W. Thomas, of Atlanta, president of the Gate City Barber Supply company which is being incorporated in Atlanta, was in the city this week in the interest of his company.

Urban League Spends $149,000 for Social Work LARGE PROGRAM MAPPED FOR THE LEAGUE DURING YEAR The Activities of the League Will be Extended to New Fields The annual report of the National Urban League just issued from its headquarters at 137 East 23rd street, New York, is a record of the possibilities for community improvement thru the combined efforts of all agencies in a community working for the improvement of the whole. To the economic problems of the northern urban Negro has been added the problem of housing due to the greatly increased migration of Southern Negroes to northern industrial centers during and since the war. Realizing that the Negro—another industrial workers—must have a decent place to live, proper recreation and favorable environments for his best development, the Urban League in its activities throughout the year has emphasized this part of its program. During the year branches were organized in Cambridge, Boston, Milwaukee and St. John's Institutional Activities of Springfield, Mass. Kansas City was organized in the west, and Buffalo, Macon, Ga., Lansing, Flint, Michigan, Wilmington, Del.; Indianapolis, Toleda, Hartford, Conn., have asked for Urban Leagues. The report relates that thru the various locals, 135 industrial plants were induced to employ Negro labor for the first time, and colored welfare workers were employed in the reduction of labor turnover in industry. The demand for trained workers along this line has caused various league branches to open classes for training these welfare workers, who according to employment managers are real assets in the employment service. The budget of the national organization, for 1020 calls for the expenditure of $40,000 to be used in the development of present activities; organization of new fields; securing training and placing social workers; industrial welfare work under the supervision of a national industrial secretary, and publicity for the league's idea and ideals. The total budget exceeds $200,000. The officers of the National Urban League are: L. Hollisworth Wood, president; Wm. H. Baldwin, secretary; A. S. Frissell, treasurer; Hugene Knickle Jones, executive secretary; supported by an executive board including such persons as William C. Willcox, R. R. Moton, Miss Ela Sarch, James R. Dillard, John T. Emlen, William Hayward, John Hope, Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., Mrs. V. C. Smlkovitch, William H. Brooks, Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Felx Adk and others. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA Washington, D.

SATURDAY MARCH 13TH, 1920 Tuskegee, Inst. Ala., March 6—Realizing the vital importance of the conservation of Negro health, especially at a time when conditions created by the World War have put man power at a premium, the National Health Week to be held April 4th to 10th is being enthusiastically stressed notably thru-out the southern states. F. R. Barnwell, lecturer to Negroes, Texas Public Health Association, a constructive agency to reduce the mortality rate among all people living in Texas, says that this association will heartily co-operate to make Negro Health Week an epochal step forward to combat the physical illies affecting the Negro. Such organizations as the medical associations of the country and other uplifting agencies realize that the National Negro Health Week is pregnant with wonderful possibilities for the successful combating of those diseases which are exacting such heavy toll among Negroes. Since this national event is to be observed annually, during the week of the anniversary of the birth of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, its founder, it is apparent that every Negro and Negro organization should appreciate the necessity for an immediate, active and virile campaign such as is being promoted. Everyone interested in having a healthy environment should help to contribute to the effectiveness and progress of the race by making the observance of Health Week a vigorous attack against all unsanitary conditions which breed sickness as well as against those preventable diseases which are wrecking the lives of so many of our people. The dangers of polluted walls and springs, over crowded bed rogins and other things known to be decreasing the economic efficiency of Negroes should be brought out in a striking manner in lectures by ministers, teachers, physicians and other, leaders. It is suggested that as in previous years there be appointed in each community a Clean Up Committee to arrange a program for health week. It is suggested that Sunday, April 4th be Health Sunday and that on that day sermons be preached on health, directing the attention of the people to the Clean' Up Campaign; that Monday, April 5th be Health Day-in the schools that school buildings be put into sanitary conditions and that appropriate programs be rendered, to which the patrons of the school be invited. It is suggested that during the remainder of the week the homes and yards receive attention.

Night WILL DISCUSS $500,00 BOND MONEY TO BE SPENT FOR SCHOOLS Meeting Will be Held at St. Philip A. M. E. Church, West Broad Street A mass meeting of citizens will be held Wednesday night at St. Philip A. M. E. Church, Charles and West Broad streets, at which the principal topic of discussion will revolve around the $500,000 which was authorized in a bond election last fail, to be used in the erection of new school buildings. It is very probable that the meeting will be one of the largest held here for some time as the Negro citizens in general are very much concerned about the manner in which this money, is to be expended. Prior to the meeting of the board of education last Monday, a committee of Negroes representing the two ministerial alliances and the business and professional men of the city, met and sent a communication to the board asking if the newspaper articles concerning the expenditure of the funds derived from the bonds reflected the sentiment of the board. In these articles it was stated that the money from the bond issue would be used for the erection of white schools only. Up to yesterday, it is stated, no reply had been received by the committee. The Negroes feel that their educational needs should be looked after by a portion of the bond money, as well as those of the whites. They claim that they were given to understand before the election that they would be well taken care of in the expenditure of the funds arising from the bonds, if they passed, and as a result they worked hard and faithfully in bringing out the Negro vote. It was said that practically every Negro registered cast his ballot in behalf of the bonds. They feel that at least one school building should be given them out of the half million dollar fund. They point to the fact that while at least seven white schools were being built in the city during the past twenty years only one was built for them. The other three buildings now used as school houses were converted into such and two of these are in such poor and delapidated condition that they are not only a disgrace to the city but a mence to the health of the children attending them. The mass meeting Wednesday night well be held under the auspices of the local body of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the citizens' committee which sent out the communication asking the board of education if it were true that no Negro school building would be provided for in the half million dollar fund the city now has for educational purposes. The meeting is to begin at 8:30 o'clock. NUMBER 24 PRESIDENT WILLIAMS BRINGS TO CONSUMATION BIG DEAL 11 Bldgs. in Property Sale Represents One of the Biggest .Transactions Handled Here by Negro Investors for Sometime—Bank Has Other Large Interests in New York Real Estate New York, March 9th.—Nall and Parker have sold for the Harris estate the southwest corner of 135th street and 7th avenue, being a plot of 110.5 feet on 7th avenue by 125 feet on 135th street, corroded by buildings Nos. 2290-92-94 on 7th avenue, the corner and 2024-6-S-10-12 and 14 on West 135th street. This is the first time this property has changed hands in 27 years. The property came into possession of the present owner upon the death of his father. It has been purchased by the Wage Earners Savings Bank of Savannah, Ga., the pioneer Negro savings bank of Georgia, whose deposits represented in the month of February $875-184.36 and having over 14,000 depositors. The bank has no definite plans in mind for the present. They might hold the property for some substantial improvement in the future or they might consider re-selling it. It was held by the owner at a price in the neighborhood of $200,000. This sale represents one of the biggest transactions handled by colored investors in this section for a long time, judged from the standpoint not only in dollars, but of its commanding location, being in the judgment of the brokers who sold it, one of the most valuable sites for improvement in the entire Harlem section. The Wage Earners Bank is not a new buyer of Gotham real estate for it was already heavily interested in property here before yesterday's big deal. President L. E. Williams of the bank arrived in the city Sunday from Savannah. A. A. Pope, New York lawyer and formerly an instructor at the Ga. State College, Savannah, Ga., handled the legal details of the big deal. The following is what the New York Times of today said about the transaction: COLORED BANKERS BUY Acquire Eleven Buildings at Prominent Harlem Corner "Nail & Parker sold, in conjunction with the Brown Wheelock Company, to the Wage Earners Savings Bank, a colored institution of Savannah, Ga., the property at the southwest corner of 155th street and Seventh avenue, being 110 on Seventh avenue by 126 feet on 155th street, comprising eleven buildings. This is the first time this property has been sold in twenty-seven years, and it was held at about $200,000. The Wage Earners Savings Bank contemplates a general improvement in the property."

MISS BRITTON At Stokes Ribbon Store 14 East Broughton, St. Hampton, Va., March 10—The Hampton quintet gave the greatest surprise of the season by defeating Howard University basketball team at the great Coliseum, on Friday night, March 5, by a score of 17 to 16. On the night of the game Washington was in the grip of the worst storm experienced during the entire winter. The Howard student body and the good size crowd of basket ball fans that braved the storm saw one of the finest exhibitions of, basket ball ever seen in the Capital City. The singing of the Howard college songs and the yells by the student body gave the team a triumphant college atmosphere. game a strictly college atmosphere. From the sound of the referee's whistle until the end, the game was the closest and hardest fought one ever played between the two institutions. Howard at the opening of the first half secured a 9 to 1 lead, but Hampton settled down and this half ended 9 to 9. The second half began with both teams playing a life and death struggle. Howard kept a one or two-point lead, until the last five minutes, when Hampton secured the one-point lead which it held. The guarding, passing and speed of both teams, throughout the game were spectacular and brought the crowd to its feet time after time. The playing of the Hampton team during the last four minutes and with a onepoint lead, electrified the spectators as well as mystified the Howardites. The Howard team was completely nonplussed by the unexpected strength of Hampton. Wright and Freeman at guard and McLaren at forward for Hampton played stella ball; whiles Tibbs and Garner for Howard were the point-getters. Fine spirit prevailed, but the game will be long noted for the close guarding and hard playing. Hampton's basketball record for the season is as follows: Six college games played, with five victories, Shaw was defeated at Hampton and Raleigh 13 to 15 and 24 to 21. Lincoln was defeated at Hampton and Philadelphia 28 to 15 and 32 to 24. Hampton lost the first game to Howard at Hampton, 35 to 21; but won the second game in Washington 17 to 16. Howard, the only contender for championship honor, has played three games, winning two and losing one. Hampton's basketball record, therefore, entitles her to the 1920 college championship. MME.

THE MAYOR'S IDEA OF PROGRESS Before one of the commercial bodies of the city this week, Mayor Stewart, reviewing what he regarded as the splendid record of achievement made by the present administration of which he Is the head, cited among other things that there was an enormous increase in revenue from the Recorder's court and a great number of persons sentenced to do terms on the farm. By what rule of measurement or standard of judgement can it be said that this reflects the progress of a city. Who can say, without investigation, just what this does mean? Why may this not mean the result of periodical whims and caprices of the department resulting in a general round-up of Negro pool rooms? A labor shortage cry in some quarter one; day will cause a raid on vagrants and loiterers the next and big sums in fines realized by the department on the next. And so it goes. THE BOARD OF EDUCATION The position of the Negro citizens of Savannah with reference to the expenditure of the $500,000 of school bond money was fully stated in last week's issue of The Tribune. We now only go over much the same ground, in answer to the large explanations and excuses which are now being made in an attempt to satisfy Negro people. The Board of Education well knows that it has no right, either in law, on in the light of common justice and fair play, to begin the spending of any portion of that bond money without at the same time beginning the construction of equitable increases in school facilities for the Negroes. They know this in spite of the Negro's inability to help himself by preventing it. And they also know that a just sense of equity would dictate that, if any portion of the program for new schools is subordinated because of increased costs of labor and materials, it would certainly not be the Negro schools. To be even more frank and direct, the Board of Education knows that the most logical and urgent first move to be made would be the building of the proposed new West Broad street school. There seem to be no entanglements, legal or otherwise, in the way of this. Then, it is going to be very awkward and embarrassing for gentlemen of the type which makes up the Board to undertake a program which would put them in the attitude of breaking faith with the Negro citizens who labored so faithfully to help carry the bond issue for schools. They know that postponing work on the Negro schools would not be keeping faith; and that, in view of the fact that the vote was close and that but for the Negro vote it would have failed to carry, this subordinating of the Negro's interests would put the Board in the attitude of helping those who opposed the issue at the expense of those who caused the issue to carry. There is no way to avoid these conclusions. No matter how prices in labor and material have advanced, the obligation to build at least one Negro elementary school for Negroes right now is just as sacred and as binding as made under any other conditions. If it is possible for two schools only to be built with the money in hand, one of these must be a Negro school by all the rules of reason and right. The actual conditions obtaining are such that if only one could be built, a sense of justice would direct that this be a Negro school. No reason has or can be offered why the building of a Negro school should be deferred to a later date. If it takes $150,000 to build the West Broad street school, it should be built at once. Eren then Negroes will not have been given an equitable apportionment of the funds in hand. We again repeat, we do not see how the Board of Education can satisfy its conscience that it is doing justice to the Negro citizens, and in fact to this entire community, if it falls to act fairly, as justice directs is their duty. in this serious matter.

Dr.:Clayborne told the chief that he had nothing to do with the men Boing on a'strike and would have noth- ing to do with their return. He was again called into conference at the bar- racks, this time, it is said, several of the steamship company's officials he- ing present. Dr. Clayborne reassured them that be was not concerned in the strike except as a member of the loca’ and that he syould not use his influence toward-persuading the men to g0 back to_work, It Is stated that about fifty men were brought here to relieve the situation, but that some of them, when they learn ed the nalure of the work they were brought to do, went to the union meet- ing and told them that they did not know they were being brought here ‘as strike. breakers and asked assistance -to get back home. It appears that the amen brought in were floating railroad rection hands and bridge builders from the interior of the state. ° Up te last night no change in the pit uation had occurred.” The ships for the most part remain just as they were wheh the men went out and thé con- gestion, caused by other ships coming in, is said to be very great.
