TO MANUFACTURE SENTIMENT
Concerted Effort Being Made by Papers
Editorials Being Printed, in Several Leading Journals
Chicago, Jan III, (Associated Negro Press)—There is a concerted effort, with more or less suspicious motives, to manufacture sentiment in favor of the southern litch of dealing with the "race problem."
The following editorial which has come under the observation of the Associated Negro Press, has appeared without credit lines, in fifty or more daily newspapers. Each editorial has the same caption, as is all ways the case in similar editorials. The caption of this editorial, "Chicago As a Negro City," it says.
"Gilbert has carried through its loast that it would double its Negro population in the decade. The increase is 145.5 per cent, as against 21 per cent for the whites. The Negroes have grown proportionately in numbers more than seven times his fast as the whites. Total Negroes in Gilage, 10,253—which carries it aloft Battl more, and possibly Washington, with New York probably its chief competitor. The changed city is the fact that the two cities with the largest Negro population are now in the north 4th Chicago and New York—and that the next two, Baltimore and Washington, are in the so-called "border states" with possibly another northern city.
xthr. Philadelphia. The only Southern city which comes any where near these in New Orleans, which may show a slight falling off in the number of its Negroes, like the neighboring counties of Louisiana and Mississippi. The result is due to three causes—the fact that many railroad in this section run directly into Udicago, so that it is easy for Negroes from Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee to slip into the Illinois metropolis; secondly, the camp for the Southern Negroes during the war was at Camp Grant, near Chicago; and, finally, political influence for Chicago politicians have stimulated the immigration, not the Negroes, necessarily controlled by them. There are 20,000 Negro voters in Chicago who are aggregated in the south division, and have a largely determining influence in Chicago politics.
"It will be remembered that immediately after the Civil War some extremists on the race question suggested that a district or territory of the United States be set off as a reservation for the Negroes alone, a sort of American Liberia. Possibly the South side of Chicago could be set aside for this purpose. Its population is almost exclusively Negro and its officials, state and municipal, are of the same race.
"Many of these Negroes came originally, and only a few years ago, from Louisiana and Mississippi. The effort to win them back to the South has not been at all encouraging. They are being held together by their large numbers and their political favors. The people of Chicago have awakened to the fact that they have a race problem among them as to the proper treatment of the question the Negroes of last year showed Chicago, therefore, has a far kinder sentiment towards the South in its efforts to solve these 'race problems' fairly, justly and to the advantage of all.
Hampton Defeats Lincoln 39 to 16
Hampton, Va., Jan. 19- Hampton won the second game of the inter-collegiate series by defeating Lincoln 39 to 16 before a large, enthusiastic crowd of higher ball fans. It was evident after the first few moments of play that Hampton had the better team. The feature of the game was the passing and shooting of the Hampton fire. Time after time the spectators were brought to their feet by Hampton's team work, which completely baffled the Lionshites. The college atmosphere was evident as the rosters of both teams cheered their favorites.
Although outplayed in every department of the game, the Lincoln team fought gamely until the end. Wheatland was easily their star. His playing revealed his last season's form, but he was helpless against Hampton's machine. Every Hampton man played his part well.
The Lincolnites came to Hampton confident of winning and with a special request from their alumni to bring a victory from Hampton. This they tried hard to do, but had to content themselves to wait another season.
The second Lincoln-Hampton game will be played in Baltimore on Friday evening, February 15th.

Murder Case Has Caused Much Concern
Washington, D. C., Jan. 19—The trial of Clarah Johnson and her father William Johnson, charged with causing the death of Sergant Harry Wilson, of the detective force on July 21, 1919, during the race riots caused
murder between the in-flight passengers of the city. Upon mention the attack, the attorney argued that the degree murder against the father was ignored. However, counsel for the defense were not allowed to use this fact to oppose the charge of the government that the girl shot the detective. This young girl was charged with first degree murder. The jurors compromised and Clara was found guilty of manslaughter. The girl bore up remarkably well during the trying ordeal, but after the foreman of the ury had announced the verdict, she broke down and wiped bitterly, having to be led from the court room by the marion. The trial continued to difficulty in obtaining a jury, the taking of testimony was somewhat delayed. The prosecution charged that Detective Sergeant Wilson met his death as he entered the Johnson home in search of persons who had fired into the street. A pistol battle is said to have ensued, and Detective
Wilson fell, mortally wounded. It is alleged that Johnson and his daughter were found hiding under a bed, and that an empty cartridge was found in a revolver in their home. The government's hardest proportion is to solve which, if any, of the defendant's bullets killed the detective. Attorney Benjamin L. Gaskins and T. M. Watson, who defended Clara Johnson, contended that it was not possible to prove what shot struck the officer. Counsel for the defense gave notice of their intention to ask for a new trial, and Clara Johnson was released on bond. The Rev. W. H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist church, and the National Race Congress, became surety for the accused. The citizens of WashingtonDale proved themselves 100 per cent in coming to the aid of this unfortunate young girl, and every pressure is being brot to bear to see that she is freed.

Chicago, Ill., Jan. 18th (By The Associated Negro Press)—From a residence prayer meeting organization to an incorporated religious body, worshiping in an cemetery valued at $300,000.00 may sound like fiction, but it is the actual story of Pilgrim Baptist church, Chicago.
The congregation has recently purchased the magnificent Jewish Temple Indiana Avenue and East 33rd street for a cash consideration of $75,000.00 and the opening week has just closed. The congregation has been pastor of the church since late 1970.

CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE
VERDICT OF FEDERAL JURY
Montgomery, Ala. Jan. 19th (11)
The Associated Negro Press, 1914, 41,000
for a life lost by criminal negligence
was practically the verdict by the
Federal jury in the recent case of
J. B. Carter against the Central of
Georgia Hallway.
The plaintiff had asked for $25,000,000
damages, as compensation for the
death of Taylor, who was killed June
11, 1917.
The jury by its verdict sustained
the contention of the plaintiff that an
engineer who is looking along the
track from his engine must of necessity
see any object the size of a man
on the track, and that his testimony
that he did not see such an object is
obvious. Another plea against the verdict
was that though railroad employees are not bound to keep a lookout along the track for trespassers
yet if a trespasser is discovered and
no warning is given or attempt made
to stop the train, the railroad is responsible.
Simon Taylor was employed by the railroad for spitting crosses for fuel at a pumphouse near good-water. The plaintiff alleged that in order to carry ties across the railroad track, and thus discharge his duty, he was consequently not a trespasser at the time he was alleged that he was killed. It was further alleged that he was struck without warning, after being discovered on the track; and that even admitting that he was a trespasser the plaintiff was entitled to damages.
The argument of the defense in the early part of the trial, sought to deny that the man was killed by a train at all, there being no eye-witnesses. It was further alleged by the defense that even if killed by the defendants train, he might have met his death while attempting to climb aboard, or jump off the train. Contributory negligence was also claimed, it being alleged that Taylor was an old man and dear.
The strong point in the testimony of the plaintiff was that Mrs. Alabama Frigelius, colored, who declared that she saw the train from her house as it passed, and that the engineer's head was at an angle which indicated that he was looking down the track. Further evidence was introduced to show that the train gave no warning signal as passing, and the plaintiff held that the engineer must have seen the deceased Taylor on the track and negligently failed to give warning.
R. K. MOTION TO MAKE

PLANS FOR ALLIED INDUSTRIAL FINANCE ORGANIZATION FINISHED
JIM CROW LAWS BE CONSIDERED
Committee On Inter-Racial Relationships
Committee Formed To Eliminate Friction Between The Races
Affinanta, Ga. Jan 19, (Associated Negro Press)—That the committee on inter-racial relationships, of which prominent state and city officers, judges, ministers of both races, phil anthropologists and social workers has been asked to consider the question of repealing the Jim Crow laws of Georgia is reported here on reliable authority. The repeal of these laws would allow both races to ride together without separation on railroad trains or other public conveniences, would allow colored coaches on railroad trains, the colored section on street cars, and elevators for colored people in office buildings.
What action the committee took on the subject. If any, is a matter of speculation. There is one, report that some of the highest officials on the committee were in favor of the removal of the Jim Crow laws. The committee was formed for the purpose of eliminating friction between the races. Its object is to consider complaints as they arise, recognize them if the people are in the right, and endeavor to remove, quietly and publicly, the source of the complaint. One of the forms of race equality upon which leaders of the race are strongly insisting, it is understood, the discrimination against members of the race on railroads, street cars, office buildings, elevators, and in hotels, restaurants.
Founder's Day Alt Hampton Institute
Dr. James Hardy Dillard 'NHL Deliverer Address on Gen. Armstrong
Hampton, Va. Jan 12- Dr. James E. Greer, principal of Hampton Institute, has announced that the principal address at the celebration of Founder's Day, to be held on January 20 in Green. Samuel Chapman Armstrong, will be present. Dr. James Hardy Dillard, Charlotte, who is the president of the James Neumann Slater Board, member of the General Educational Board, and director of William and Mary College.
"Dr. Dillard," says the Southern Workman, which is the official magazine published by Hampton Institute, "has done more than in perhaps any other southern man to get forces in more trouble to bring about better race relations. We also started the prime move in forming the Southern University Race Commission and he was also active in the Commission on Inter-Railal Cooperation and the Southern Publicity Committee."
MOVING PICTURES GREATEST
FORCE IN RKFE ADJUSTMENT
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 19th (By The Associated Near & Press)—"Moving pictures have been one of the greatest visualizing forces in race adjustment, and we are just beginning."
Thus spoke Oscar Michaux, the heading and most successful producer of the Race for the Associated Negro Press, Mr. Michaux spent a few days in Chicago at the western opening of his latest and most pretentious picture, The Symbol of the Unconquered.
This profection demonstrates beyond question what the producer meant in his statement, and proves that there has been an arrival not only in the producing field, but in the wide and necessary field of sentiment making, and a better understanding between the races.
The story of the picture is a stirring tale of love and adventure in the great misheltered and open north west, but through it all are impressive lessons on the folly of color, both within and without the race.
"There is one thing aside from the story interesting, that is I strive to demonstrate in all my pictures," said Mr. Micheaux, "and that is, it makes no difference what may be a person's no, or from where a person comes if the heart is right, that's what counts as success." The "Symbol of the Tuscanquerel" takes a significant thrust at the "more than 5,000,000" people in America who with American blood in their veins are "passing for white."
Mr. McIheeau announces that his productions are, now being shown in all of the leading countries of Europe, including England, France, Italy, Spain, and in Africa and the leading South American Republics. Arrangements have practically been concluded to make at least one production a winner, in which scores of the leading performers of the country are to be used.

To Provide Higher Education For Negroes
Speaks to a Conference of Federal And State Educational Officials
Montgomery, Alm, Jan 10th—In a conference of Federal and State educational officials held here in the senate chamber last week, Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, was invited to speak on the subject of Negro education, and in the course of his remarks strongly urged the South to make more provision for higher education as well as better vocational training for Negroes.
He said, "This country at large is suffering because of the shortage of well-trained teachers," and I am glad that the Federal government, through the Smith-Hazles Act, is operating with state authorities in providing better teacher-training for both colored and white people. He said he would refer to the generally inadequate provision made by our own state of Alabama as well as other southern states for the higher education of Negroes, most of whom become teachers.
"Many of the Negro teachers is the secondary schools and colleges of Alabama have, I dear say, received their training in other states but this is not true, I judge of the white schools: It is my carnest hope, therefore, that the far distant when Alabama will make progress in the Negro youth as are made for its white youth in institutions like the University of Alabam and the State-Polytechnic Institute of Auburn.
"It is clear that the Negro is determined that his children shall be educated, and if this cannot be secured in his own state the children will be sent to other states. I cannot but feel that it is the business of the state to provide ample opportunities for training all of its citizens."
"It is unfair to the Negro youth of the state that if they wish to secure higher education they must attend a the South or go to a northern school to the same sort of training that the state provides for its white youth.
chase a ticket. If democracy means anything, it means equal opportunities and equal protection for every citizen, and I am giddy that there is a large and rapidly increasing group of the best white people of the South who are determined that law-abiding, intelligent Negroes may live peace and security and may thereby be enabled to contribute their fullest share toward the highest development of the South."
Little Rock To Entertain Bapt. Congress
Nashville, Tenn., Jan. 18th—Little Rock, Ark. is to entertain the 1921 session of the Sunday School Congress forces June 6th to 13th. This action was confirmed by the meeting of the board held in this city today. Five cities were running neck and neck for these honors. They were Muskegue, Oka, Columbia, S. C., Calveson, Tex. St. Louis, Mo., and Little Rock. It developed that the matters had been before the board for the third time and the decision was only reached farther. Notices were bit once sent to the leaders at Arkansas, converting the information to them. The secretary of the movement, Rev. Henry A. Boyd, and the chairman, Dr. C. H.

Dedicatory services and the formal opening of the $75,000.00 home of Jones Valley Lodge No. 14, I. H. P. O. E. W. will be held in Birlinggah, Ma., during the month of April. Five years ago when Mr. W. W Green was installed exalted ruler, the lodge was in debt more than $5,000.00 and a membership of less than 200. Today, the lodge can boast of nearly 1,000 members, the debt wiped out and a new building nearing completion which will be the finest and most costly owned by any colored Elks lodge in the world. Mr. Green is one of the most aggressive exalted rulers in the country and can boast of a membership practically of one inund—no division, but work, work all the time for the upbuilding of the order. It is expected that Grand Exptited Huler McMechen and others high dignatories of the grand lodge will take part in the dedication as well as some members of Gate City Lodge No. 54. We doft our hats to Jones Valley No. 14, and especially to the man who has led them for more than five years to such an enment place.
The recommendation of Mayor Key that city council levy a special tax of one-fourth of one per cent in order to raise $1,200,000.00 in order to make needed improvements in the public schools fell flat last week when council went on record as opposing any such scheme. When the vote was taken only one councilman voted for the mayor's pet measure. It is reported that the mayor openly charged the Atlanta Constitution with opposing his measure in order to rule the school system. To this purported statement, the Constitution, in a lengthy editorial Sunday morning called his honor a "Pee-Wee Mayor" and a straight-out "liar."
The Standard Life Insurance Co. held its meeting Thursday. The result of their meeting will be told in our next article.

At a meeting of the committee on suffrage for the District of Columbia, the Negro's cause was challenged by the Honourable L. C. Dyer, when Mrs. Nannette H. Paul, representing the Anthony League gave her endorsement of the Burroughs resolution. Mr. Dyer asked whether in her opion Negroes should be given full suffrage.
The colored citizen has legal right under the constitution of the United States the same as the white man or woman, and these legal rights we are bound to respect. "Is the reply Mrs. Paul made to Mr. Dyer. Mrs. Paul here emphasized that she had previously said she favored an educational qualification. She reminded the committee that many white men have not always had the franchise, and had to be trained to it. "When," said Mrs. Paul. "the colored man has been trained to appreciate the rights and oblization of the ballot, he should be given the same participation as the Constitution affords."

One event of more than passing moment in the events of the week was the opening of the first of a chain of grocery stores to be operated, by the Donglass Co-Operative League, Inc. From present indications the building is far too small. There was a gala opening and all day long throngs of colored buyers "with a vision" crowded the store. Goods were artistically arranged; articles were on display; polite colored clerks rendered satisfactory service, and the prices were in keeping with the prices of the other establishments. The store is at 8th and Florida Avenue, northwest in the heart of the busiest colored section in the city.
Recruital services are in progress in all of the city churches. Evangelists of known ability are the attractions at several of the churches while at others the pastor is conducting the services.

CONTROVERSY BETWEEN
COLORED YARD BRAKEMEN
Chicago Ill., Jan. 19th (By The
Associated Negro Press) - A controversy, affecting hundreds of colored yard brakemen on the Norfolk and Western railway, is being argued before the U. S. Railway Labor Board here, between the Association of Colored Railway traimmens, having headquarters in Memphis, and the Brotherhood of Railway Traimmens.
The Brotherhood desire a rule adopted which would make it possible for only promotable men being given employment, which would automatically eliminate colored trainmen, because of color prejudice. J. H. Elland, President, and O. E. Henkle, division chairman, are representing the Association of Colored Railroad Trainmen. A. D. Long, of Birmingham, is representing Colored Locomotive Firemen. They are waging a strong fight for their respective organizations. The hearing will perhaps list a week longer

SCHOOL BONDS LOST
Because of the failure of a sufficient number of voters to go to the polls last Tuesday and vote for school bonds the issue was lost and we are none the better off but somewhat lower in spirit for we had hoped the issue would pass and a million and a half dollars would be available for new schools in this city and county. The issue lost by less than three hundred voters and the good work of those who wrought faithfully for the bonds went for naught except that in the event of a subsequent bond election their efforts in the past election will serve to spur them on to greater and more determined To the majority of citizens, we be-
action, the result of the election is a keen disappointment and to the colored citizens it amounts to almost a calmity for it is the latter who are in immense need of better and more adequate school facilities. But even they did not support the issue as they should have although the improvement of their educational opportunities were greatly dependent upon the out come of this election, and this we believe to be true, for while there were no promises made to the Negro or any other particular class of citizens as to the division of the funds made available by the passage of bonds, yet we believe that the Negroes of the city and country would have been greatly benefited by the issue going through. We believe they would have shared in this fund to the extent, possibly, two new city schools and at least two new county schools.
But the issue did not pass and even our belief as to what might be is all a matter of conjecture. We do know this-that if there were any one who questioned the necessity of more adequate school facilities in this city for Negro children these thoughts must have been shattered after he had witnessed the parade of last Tuesday morning, when over four thousand Negro children paraded the streets beging the voters to support the election of that day which, if it passed, would probably give the board of education an opportunity to enlarge their chances for developing themselves into useful citizens. Many of the banners they carried bespoke the wretched conditions which prevail in several of the colored schools. One of the most impressive of these was a banner calling attention to the fact that in the
second largest, No. 100 school. In there are 1,200 children, giving to teach teacher at this school an average of 00 pupils. Think of this! A physical impossibility for any teacher no matter how efficient and capable she may be, to even half way give such a large number of children proper teaching. Another of these banners called attention to the fact that in several grades there are as many as three children to a seat, all crowded in like sardines in a box.
It is scarcely conceivable that such conditions would obtain in a community like this which is supposed to be wide-awake and alert as to the chances for children receiving proper development, and yet these are but a few of the awful conditions that are to be found in some of the Negro schools. It is but mildly putting it to say that we should have supported the recent bond issue. We had everything to hope for it last Tuesday's election had been successful, and we further believe that should the board of education elect to attempt the passage of any subsequent bond issue, we should support it strongly, thereby helping the board to get into position to give us better and more adequate facilities for the education of our children.
MUSICIANS COMMENDED
Editor Srinivasan Thambai
Dear Sir-I am taking this means of publicly commending the Musicians Union for the fine spirit they manifested by giving their services to the 4,000 Negro school children in order that their parade should not be without music.
It was explained to them there were no funds for which to pay them, in spite of which they stopped from their work and did their part in order that the children might make their silent appeal to the voters of this community, I am sure I bespeak the appreciation of the board of education and loyal citizens and I am sure, I express the gratitude of 4,000 children, which is worth more than mere money. I appeal to the public spirited citizens of this city to see to it that the baudens receive from them some tangible reward for the services which they so willingly rendered to our children.
Stop in at The Tribune office and leave a donation, or send it to the teachers for the band men.
Yours very gratefully,

SAID TO BE CHICAGO'S POLITEST CITIZEN
Chicago, IL, Jan 12th—Paul Rayfield Johnson, a six year old Negro boy of this city, has taken an honorable place—among Chicago's politest citizens. He is $50.00 the richer by reason of this fact and "colored" Chicago is highly pleased with this latest honor or that has come unsought to the race in this section.
The Chicago Tribune is awarding daily $50 prizes to the politest person discovered by its "Polite Editor." On the 3rd of January the editor ran across young Paul Rayfield Johnson. He had been traveling far and wide through the benighted streets of the city and had about given up his searching for the day when he ran into Paul at the corner of Wabash Avenue and 35th street.
The youthful Negro's politeness overwhelmed the editor. The story goes that he was "knocked cold" and that it took him several minutes to recover his equanimity under the stress of the very unusual circumstances of finding a member of the "cululd" race the politest person of a hard day's travel and search.
Paul Rayfield Johnson is wearing his honors easy and becomingly and has promised to use the prize money in an earnest endeavor to start on the road of procuring a good education. His only relative in the city is an aged grandmother who promises to aid the boy to carry out his intentions in this particular.
A considerable number of colored citizens have evinced an interest in the boy and there is a strong probability that he will be the center of a well advised co-operation from members of the race whenever he start on his trip to the world of the knowledge of things.

The ladies wish also to thank Mr. C. W. Swinton of this city who pledged
during 1920 to pay $10.00 to that fund
Jan 1921. Mr. Swinton promptly hand
in his check Jan 6th 1921. The question is asked repeatedly when
are they going to start to build the
Hospital? And so many friends say
we surely need a good hospital when it
is started I will give and the sam
mentioned $25.00 to $50.00. But
you see friends the hospital can be
started on prowess. It has got to be
cash. Now if one thousand and
business in Savannah who are really interested
in seeing a good modern hospital
(not make shift) in this city that
would be a credit to the race here
and a source of great service to
humanity would do as Mr. C. W. Swinton has done pledge $10.00 to be paid
in by Jan. 1922 and pay it according
to promise, the above question could
be answered. The answer would be,
the hospital will be started in 1922.
But there must be enough money to
start with surety of accomplishing
some thing. The members of the
Auxiliary will try to find one thousand
persons during this year who are
willing to give $10.00 towards
starting this needed building in 1922.

Issue Lack 297 Votes To Carry Election
SCHOOL CHILDREN HELD 'BIG PARADE IN MORNING
Being short 297 votes necessary to win, the efforts of the board of education in last Tuesday's election to have the county float $1,500,000 worth of bonds for the erection of new school buildings in this city and county failed to carry. The bonds were given 310 adverse votes and 4,140 ballots cast in their favor. As there were 8,687 registered voters eligible for the election and the law governing the authorization of issuance of bonds calls for a majority of the registered voters to approve it, the election was lost by a bounty 297 votes. It is thought that over-couffidence had a lot to do with the failure of the election as there were hundreds of voters in favor of the issue who failed to go to the polls thinking their votes were not needed.
The failure of bonds was a keen disappointment to the citizens in general and to the Negroes in particular as the letters' schools, with the exception of one city school and two county schools, are in a wretched condition.
In order to stimulate interest in the election, the school children of the city staged a very impressive parade on Tuesday morning. The colored children, more than 4000 in line, marched up West Broad street, from Gwinnett, to Broughton, to Jefferson and then to Gaston where the parade disbanded. There was music galore for the little ones to march by, for the Musicians Union was there in full strength and funded the marches all the music their hearts could wish for, and this free of charge. These big hearted boudens gave this service as their share to the effort to get more adequate school facilities for the hundreds of Negro school children of the city who are now crowded into the schools in a most undesirable manner or who have been forced to go to school in the morning at the doubled sessions at an hour which is way to early for the little tots to be aroused for such a purpose.
While school bonds failed Tuesday
it is thought that another effort will
be made later on to carry this issue
and that it will be successful.

BAY ESTATES
Jefferson City, Mo., Jan. 19th (By
The Associated Negro Press)—Most of the Negro population of Missouri lives in the congested areas of the cities while only a small proportion can properly be classed as rural population, the Negro Industrial Commission said in a report that will be made to the next General Assembly. The commission said it hoped to solve the problem of drawing the Negro from the city to the rural districts, to engage in land production.
The agents have made a survey of the Negro's condition, educationally economically and industrially, and has investigated his housing, health and moral condition. "Our investigators have found some conditions which cause grave concern," the report said. "For instance, it was discovered the out of 212,000 Negroes in Missouri only 40,000 live in hamlets and or farms. These figures reveal startling situations, that 70 per cent of the colored population of the state is in the congested areas of the cities while only 30 per cent can properly be classed as rural population.
"The Negro under such environment brings little from the soil, while he is one of the largest consumers proportionately in the population. How to enable him to throw some of his strength into land productions as we as to better turn produces of the soil into shape for human consumption is one of Missouri's most vital problems and one which the commission hopes to solve.

AMONG THE MASONS
Be on the lookout for a man of dark color, about five feet eight or ten inches in height, intelligent in expression, bearing cards and papers showing membership in New Grove Lodge A. F. and A. M. Athens, Ga., R. P. D., by the name C. Y. J. Moon, Athens, Ga., R. F. D. 2 Box S.
This sign was once a member of said lodge, New Grove No. 216, but has been expelled and is running away for no other reason than that of defrauding Masonic lodges and Masons where ever he can. He is bearing a teacher's license which he shows to prove his standing in his community.
This is sent out to warn the lodges in this and other jurisdictions against extending any assistance to this man. In short do not give money to any man until his case and standing have been investigated thoroughly.
· MASONRY AS AN ASSET
MASONRY AS AN ASSET
Men who are contemplating a fraternal society often ask themselves what benefits will I derive from my membership in it, and will it help me in a business and social way. Those coming in Masonry will be able to get out on it just as much as they put into it. The law of compensation is appitable here as it applies to anything else. Masonry gives them the opportunity to show what is in them, and those who show their worthy will be amply rewarded. Masonry helps its members also in a business and social way, but the benefits covered along these lines also depend upon the individual. A Mason who goes up to the principles upon which our great tradition is based, not help but benefit himself, and a man who is benefited in this way can look upon the world with a view, and unconsciously receives the development which enables him to teach highest planes in the business world.—PASSING
ROOSEVELT ON MASONRY
In an article by John J. Larry, Ar. entitled, "Conversation," published in the July number in McGraw Magazine, occurs the following report of what Col. Roosevelt said concerning Masonry:
"In similar vein, the Colonel one afternoon touched on Masonry.
"As you know, he said, turning to me, I am a member of the local lodge of Masonry. You also know, brother, I venerate an secret when I say that one of the greatest values in Masonry is that it attends an opportunity for men in all walks of life to meet on common grounds, where for the time all men are equal and have one common interest."
"For example, when I was President, the master was worshipful Brother or Dourity, gardener of the estate of one of my neighbors and a most excellent, public spirited citizen, with whom I liked to maintain contact. Clearly I could not call upon him when I came home. It would have embarrassed him; neither could he, without embarrassment, call on me, in the lodge it was different. He was over me, though I was President, and it was good for him and good for me.
"I go to the lodge, and even the folks who do not belong to or believe in the order, rather like it that I should go. They seem to feel it's part of the eternal fitness of things. Whenever I return from one of my journeys I always go there to tell of the lodges I have visited, in Nairobi, in Africa, in Trinidad, or the quiet little lodge I found away up on the Assension River. They sort of feel I find their reponsitive to these lodges and they like it. There's a real community of interest.

Ever where we find the Davids of the no regime opposing Gollaths of Extra conversations; and just as David o old slew his heavily armored and we ponel enemy with a pebble, so are th champions of the new fraternal spirit stepping forth with no armor other than a few fundamental facts, as slaying with these the benighted representatives of ob-sole pretension false premises, and pride of office. London Freemison.
MASONIC PROGRAMMES
Getting up a programme for a Masonic function is not as easy a j as many think, but one point should be insisted upon—it should not be too long. Brevity is the soul of other things beside wit, and a short talk c much more easily be made interesting than a long one. The brothee who at low twelfth was called up by the Worshipful Master to give a address spoke wiser than he knew when he arrose, and after gravely sting that his address was 2223 Mulgatawny Avenue, sat down. He made the hit of the evening, judging for the applause he received, which if exceeded that accorded to the learn brother who had consumed more than two hours o valuable time durin the evening in telling his hearers a lot of things they knew as well as I A public speaker who knows enough to oult before his audience wants him to have learned the secret of success oratory, a secret, however, that known to few.—The Masonie Chur
LEGEND OF THE THIRD DEGRE
The legend, as it is called, of the Master Mason, is one of the most touching and beautiful in the great drama of life. Founded it is up the mysteries and ceremonies of the ancient Egyptians. It has come due to us as the very embodiment of substance of Masonry. It is the in impressive exemplification of the life, the life, the duties, the resurrection man. It stamps upon the intelligent Mason, the sublime doctrine of the life mortality of the soul; and it was wise provision of all Grand Looks that that degree should never be omitted, but should be compelled every undertaking. To omit it legend is to omit the degree itself. This legend is the great landmark the unfailing beacon of Masonic centuries. It is never changed; it is admit of no removal, for it is the anging point of the universal brookhood. It conveys volumes of thought and furnishes food for the subject, input down to the grave, and as the simple drama, stands unequally beside all of the great works.
the city of the promotions of genius. No Mason ever participate in and forget it. he felt its moral wren on his soul as though it were it touch of a family, and when properly understood, it inspires a solemn second only to the scene of dear Let no inventive and thinking goal therefore, ever tamper with this beautiful legend; it wants nothing add to it, and will allow nothing take from it.—Missouri Freemason.

Howard Attendance Indicates Interest
Washington, D. C., Jun 13—With students from practically every state in the union and ten foreign countries enrolled, the Howard University opened the winter quarter January 4, 1921, with a records, breaking registration. The large enrollment during the autumn quarter indicated a tidal wave of educational interest. This was traceable to two causes. In the first place the war had ended and students who had dropped their books to take up arms were returning to complete their education; and in the second place the experiences to the war had taught them the full value of training as nothing else could have done. As a result, many returned to the school room to resume their studies where they had left off years before.
It is surprising but gratifying to find that this interest in education has not spent itself but has proven to be more healthy and permanent than was anticipated. The enrollment at Howard shows an increase in every department over 1919. The enrollment follows:
College and graduate schools 878;
School of Law, 161; School of Religion (including those taking certificate courses) 252; School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy, 159; total enrollment of 1,730.
When it is remembered that Howard University has discontinued entirely all preparatory work and is now open only to students able to qualify for college and professional courses. Its record of attendance is an entirely new thing in the world of Negro education and is of definitely significant
COLORED RAILROAD MEN
HOLD IMPORTANT MEETING
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 12th - On the wings of the New Year has been formed the most gigantic industrial organization among colored people anywhere it is the National Federation of Railway Men, and the organization was commenced January 4, at a meeting in Birmingham, Ala. Combining with the organization are the insomnive firemen and shopmen.
The attendance at the meeting was large, and Monroe James was elected craft president.
One of the outstanding features of the organization is the endorsement of plans for the immediate establishment of an insurance company to be capitalized at $200,000.00. R. L. Maye President of the Railway Men's International is one of the prime movers in the insurance plan.
COMBAT UNITS IN FRANCE
Mr. J. Williams Clifford, late first Lieutenant of Infantry and Second Representative of the colored soldiers in the Bureau of War Risk Insurance and now president and administrative head of the Monumental Pictures Corporation stated last night in an informal gathering of representative youthmen of his race, that he was Charged and deeply hurt at not finding an action motion pictures of Negro Combat Units in the collection of motion pictures taken by the U. S. Sigma Corps in France. Mr. Clifford who is now getting out a Negro News re l.o. the order of the Patte News desired to have some of These pictures in its first release which will be ready for distribution the first of February. He was greatly disspolated in finding for the most part only pictures of Negro labor and stewardage units building reads and handling supplies and of colored soldiers peeling potatoes and jigging. He stated that it was a terrible injustice to the courtesans and brilliant achievements of the members of his rate of the famous 16th Infantry of New York and other combat units that no pictures were made showing their intrepid and dauntless bravery in motion on the Western Front and which so materally contributed to the glorious victory and to the protection of American honor and integrity.
URBAN LEAGUE ISSUES
UNEMPLOYMENT BULLETIN
Emergency Handled in Many Communities By Alert Workers
The National Urban League with headquarters at 127 East 21rd St.
New York City has issued the following statement concerning the unemployment situation now confronting the country.
Unemployment due to the readjustment of business from a war time to a peace time basis is on the increase. Negro workers are among the first to feel the effects of the unsettled conditions. It does no good however to become alarmed. Serious and calm planning can save much embarrassment and suffering.
the various branches of the League in Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Philadelphia, New York, Newark, Brooklyn, Boston, Atlanta, Memphis and other cities are prepared to render such aid as local needs may require, and other communities may correspond with the National office or the nearest local Urban League in regard to the most appropriate steps to take in any emergency.
Detroit was one of the first cities to close its industries. Its normal working force is reduced from 200,000 to 20,000 at the present time. The Negro represents about 6 per cent of the total Many Negroes left for other cities. Of those who remained a large number had provided against immediate want but high rents and high cost of life necessities has finally depleted the savings of the workers and now they represent about 30 per cent of those applying for relief. "A thing to be commended under these conditions" says J. C. Duncy, Executive Secretary, of the Detroit Urban League, is the small amount of crime attendant upon this period of unemployment."
The League suggest the following methods of handling the situation: First, interest churches in furnishing meals and free lodging to unemployed men as is being done in Chicago. These cases are cleared thru to office of the Urban League, T. Arnold Hill, Executive Secretary, thus saving time and expense and
of a plan of cooperation among all agencies especially churches, social workers and employers, as reported by George W. Buckner, Executive Secretary of the St. Louis Urban League. The ministers from their pulps urge all workers to hold on to their jobs. All odd jobs are reported to the Urban League office. Pulpit and press join employers in urging workers to increase their efficiency. In some instances this has prevented reduction in pay as employers have felt compensated by the resulting increase in production.
In the case of boys and girls whose earnings thru unemployment are being lost to dependent parents the formation of trade classes as has been done by the New York Urban League to train them better for work will prove a blessing to them when times become normal again. James H Hubert, Executive Secretary, of the New York Urban League finds that even now there are openings for Jr. tenants for which there are no trainee workers. This is also a good time to extend the "back to school" drive which the New York League is conducting in cooperation with the Junior Employment Service in an effort to dislodge children from stepping school before they are prepared for their life's work.
In meeting the present need the importance of fortifying every community against a recurrence of similar periods of non-employment should not be overlooked. Organizations may well urge upon their state legislative bodies the adoption of the general program suggested by the American Association for Labor Legislation to prevent thru unemployment insurance and the like the serious consequence, that usually accompany unemployment and to prevent unemployment itself thru skillful work of complement exchanges and then starting to push forward special public work during the time of business depression.
CONGRATULATIONS SENT
COLORED INSURANCE CO.
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 19th (By The
Associated Negro Press) - Greeting
have been coming into the House of
the Liberty Life Insurance Co-
mpany, congratulating the Company
and especially Frank L. Gillespie
Founder and President, upon the big
character of the personnel of the
Board of Directors who were elec-
tors the first stockholders meeting, an-
who will with the executive officers
direct the company for the coming
year.
The Board is composed of fifteen men F. L. Gillispie, David Monson, L. Slaughter, George W. Holt, Dr. M. O. Boushield, V. L. Williams, W. H. Law, Dr. J. W. Amos, Rev. K. L. Brady, Dr. E. A. Carter, E. N. Winbrow Drugstist and Dr. L. E. Baller of Detroit, Michigan. The executive officers of the Company are F. L. Gillispie, President; V. L. Holt, William Tilden Vice President, W. H. Le First Vice President; R. L. Brady Second Vice President; J. L. Slaughter, Fourth Vice President; David Monson, Fifth Vice President; George W. Holt, treasurer; W. Ellis Moore Secretary; Dr. M. O. Boushield Chairman of the Medical Board; B. Dickerson, General Counsel; an J. H. Jones Assistant Secretary in Cabbiter. The Board and Officers are all successful men in their respective Public approval of the election of the stockholders has not, if expressed merely by words, but in a more substantial way. Application for options on stock have been coming from every part of the country.
President Gilpiepie, when interviewed as to the progress of the Company, replied: "The Liberty Life continues uppermost in the minds of the people who are thinking. If doubtful if there has been another institution in the last decade that has attracted so many people of our race from all the avenues of life, who are determined to be pioneers in Big Business in the North. The industrial depression hit some of our stockholders but many others are making application for these options as fast as they come in. I attribute our success in the stock sales campaign to the fact, primarily, that every one whether a one share or a hundred shares holder, has been treated alike. The first share was sold for thirty dollars and those who are fortunate enough to get an option now are paying the same price. This same policy which has brought us so much success during the organization of the company, will be religiously followed along as I am at the helm of the institution.
The Liberty Life Insurance Company maintains beautiful offices in 3251 Indiana avenue. As soon as the Company begins to solicit insurance larger accommodations will be required to provide space for the different departments necessary to a legal reserve company. Many young men and women of our race will be employed as stenographers and clerks. Mr. Gillespie and those who have assistance in the formation of the Company have earned for themselves the great appreciation of the people everywhere for having established the largest financial institution in the United States owned and controlled exclusively by Negroes.

KILLS FATHER IN SELF DEFENSE
Greensboro, N. C., Jan 19th (By The
Associated Negro Press)—A homelife took place at Merry Oaks when Dennis Stewart was shot and instantly killed by his 17 year old girl Alta. The Coroner was summoned and an inquest was held. It developed at the inquest that Dennis was the most brutal father in the country. The trouble started when he beat the girl with a stick of wood over some trivial matter and she left home returning next day. He made her strip her clothing that night and with a big hickory whip whipped her unmercifully for about an hour, according to the testimony of her girl and a brother, and about moon he next day he gave her another beating and swore he was going to kill her and the rest of the children before night, at the same time showing them his pistol with which he would kill them. About four of lock he started in again and the son Phil went to the rescue of the girl and he made for him and run him out of the house. Just as he reached the porch, Alta seized a gun stood behind the door and shot him through a window, the load striking him squirrel in the back he crushed it to the door and freed. The convict of the coroner hurried that he came to his death from gunshot wounds from a gun in the hands of Alta Stewart in defense of her own life. Stewart had run off his two older sons by his cruel treatment and it was stated by his neighors and children that his wife's death was caused by his mean treatment of her. The girl that did the killing was in a pitiful plight body head and limbs starred and swollen and so couldn't walk without assistance.

It was a bitter pain, a shock severe, to part with one we loved so dear. But there
'is no pain in that fair land; life, joy and peace go hand in hand. Dark and dreary is our dwelling, lonely is our home for the one we love so dearly, who passed away one year today. In far and lonesome grave yard where the trees their branches wave, lies a dear and loving sister, in a cold and silent grave. Friends may think I soon forgot her, my wounded heart is healed, little do they know my sorrow that is in my heart concealed.

MASON—In loving remembrance of my dear brother Robert Mason, who departed this life two years ago, Jan. 18, 1910 and his wife, Mrs. Georgia Mason, who departed this life one year ago, January 4, 1920 both in New York.
When forced to part from those we love, though sure to meet tomorrow, we still a painful unguish prove, we feel a pain of sorrow. But who can describe the tears we shed when this we sever; if doomed to part for months for years to part perhaps forever. Yet if our alms are fixed right, a sacred hope is given; though here our prospects end in night, we meet again in heaven. Then let us form fills cool above, which time can never dissever, since parting in a Saviour's love we part to meet forever.
