The North Side basket ball team played the Reedsville team last Friday and found itself outclassed by the tall girls of the latter team. The North Side girls were skillful with free throws and in this out pointed the Reedsville team, but they could not get over the Reedville guard in making points from the field. The score three to twelve in favor of Reedville. Prof. H. H. Thwett has been principal of North Sile school for four years has resigned. He does not say that he has quit the profession altogether, but as a rest may enter the strictly business world. On the 15th of June, however, he goes to the Ga.

Atlanta, Ga., News
Under the pretense that he did not know when arresting persons on complaint of so-called officers from other counties in the state that he should carry the accused to the police headquarters and have their names put on the docket, a policeman, whose name is being withheld, arrested Tom Walker Monday night and turned him over to certain so-called officers of Jasper county to be taken back upon the allegation that Walker had kidnapped another employee of one John Smith whom Walker had been working for near the "murder farm" of John S. Williams. The audacity of these white men is awful. Coming right to the goat of the state government with fictitious warrants and taking colored men who are helpless, is going to the extreme, and it is no wonder that many of these poor creatures live in terror in the rural districts when any sort of a charge can be turned up against them. There is a screw some where in the machinery of the state that needs tightening badly, and unless a check is soon put on the damnable crimes committed there is no telling what will come next. The brazenness of these men and the foldness with which they acted caused the Atlanta Constitution which has been the foremost exponent of the southern white papers in calling a halt to the treatment accorded Negroes, to call up the sheriff of Jasper county concerning the warrant, the result being that the sheriff sailed no warrant had been issued. How an officer who has sworn to keep the law and see that others keep it could be so densely ignorant as not to know that he should docket all cases, is a hidden mystery. It Congress has ever wanted to see our people protected, no better time than now is when it should enact a law to put the diabolical lynchers which are nothing but plots to destroy evidence of crimes against Negroes, entirely under Federal control so that the hellish fiends can be brought to speedy justice.
Work of grading preparatory to the erection of a Sunday school room for Liberty Baptist church, was begun Wednesday night. Under the pastorate of Dr. Ernest Hall, the membership of the church, as well as the Sunday school, has steadily increased to such an extent that it became necessary to add more room.

The services are so crowded that an effort is being made to purchase additional space upon which to erect an annex Allen Temple has the distinction of having had three bishops as pastors, Flipper, Heard and Fountain. Bishops Flipper and Fountain still being active members.
In one of the hardest fought battles of the season, Atlanta University's crack ball team owed the Morehouse team on the latter's diamond last Saturday night noon before a crowd that exceeded 5,000. In the first inning the A. U. tigers took three runs and from that time on neither side ever got home until the last half of the seventh inning when Morehouse made a home run. In the 8th More-
house scored one on an error which brought the score up to two, the game finally going to A. U. by a score of 6 to 2.

KING MONOCHAT
RHINO PRIZE
It appears that peonage practice covers Georgia like the boll weevil, and "like the dev." The Department of Justice is running down many clues, and has secured satisfactory evidence in a sufficient number of cases to authorize conviction, as it think. Several counties through thirty grand juries and criminal courts are bringing mob leaders and lynchers to account, and in two places indictments have been brought against a store of participants. In nearly thirty counties, peonage has been discovered, and startling disclosures are predicted from others.
It is very difficult to secure evidence sufficient to convict in a great many of these cases, because of the fear and terror of the victims who must be relied upon to furnish the testimony to make out the government's case. This was well illustrated in the case which came before Commissioner Morrork on Wednesday of this week in Sawanah. A white man who had witnessed the severe beating of a Negro consent by the wife of the plantation owner was practically repudiated by the Negro victim who testified that him right." We have observed other "the white folk had always treated rises to fall flat because of this fear that follows the simple, scared victim of poisonage and the lash.
The reason for this fear and the difficulty of getting testimony is simple. The type of Negro who becomes the victim of prionage conditions and cannot escape it is simple, untrained and lacking in experience. His horizon is measured by the adjoining plantations or little town nearest his abode. He knows, and has had chance to know, very little of the great world beyond the plantation where he has been confined; and he does not believe and does not see how he can escape the fury and wrath of the farm "boss" against whom he testifies. He knows from experience the fate of other Neggers who told, tales; he has seen the "boss" send the county bailiff to the city and bring back the "runaway Negger"; and he shrinks for his wife and his children and his kindred if he incur the displeasure of the "boss"; he has felt the lash, he has had his earnings taken away by the mere act of juggling figures on the books; he knows it means any fate to death to dispute a white man's account or question his word. He knows that any good thing which he may possess, a good farm, a good horse, a good cow, must be turned over to the white man who desires it, and with little cost. In fact, we know of our own knowledge that the word of the white folk, even into the younger children of the "boss" family, is more powerful than law. The system, based on force and the mob, is more punishing and pitiless than the despotism of the orient.
To illustrate, we have heard that in our own city, a certain public official could not be found guilty of practicing urtica among his own Negro hands, because they feared to give testimony when called up by the heads of the departments in which these practices occurred.
We can imagine, that people, white and black, who have never known the "intimate inside" of rural life as between the landlord and tenant or wage-land, can hardly understand, the sub-title method of peonage practice.
The scourge is here, there and everywhere; and it is as difficult to prove as it is to discover and convict the men that make mobs.
But the people appear to be stirred to action, and the few people who wish to preserve our civilization and reputation for decency, and wish to do justice, and keep the law, are determined to bring the thousands of oppressors and murderers to trial and to just punishment.
Slavery and murder have seemed to be the law on thousands of Georgia farms.
PRES. HARDING'S MESSAGE CAUSES ACTION
has introduced a bill calling for a "Negro Industrial Commission," of five members, "at least three of whom shall be members of the Negro race to be appointed by the President of the United States." The salary of each member shall not exceed $5,000 per annum, except in the case of the chairman, who shall be designated by the President. The duties of the commission shall be "to study the economic conditions of the Negro; to study the labor problems in which the Negro is interested; to stimulate and encourage thrift and industry among the Negroes of this country; to promote the general welfare of the Negro in industrial pursuits; to give aid, and to encourage the general uplift of the Negro; to work out plans for solution of the different problems confronting the Negro race in the United States; to consider all questions pertaining to the Negro that may be referred to said commission by any department of the United States government, and report the proper solution of any and all problems that may be presented to the commission by any officer of the United Statets; to investigate all labor conditions for the best interest of the communities in which the labor question may arise; to investigate all labor questions that may be referred to said commission by the governor of any state and do what is necessary to regulate labor conditions; to do what may be necessary for the stability of labor in different states; to stamp out Bolshevism wherever it may exist; to report to Congress through the President of the United States; all their acts and doings and to make such recommendations for the solution of any problem or problems affecting the Negro that they may deem advisable."
The sum of £200,000 is asked for in the appropriation for the first year. Senator Hiram Johnson of California has introduced a resolution calling for an investigation into the affairs of Haiti and San Domingo. Senator Harrison and Congressman Johnson, both of Mississippi, have introduced bills calling for segregation in the street cars of the District of Columbia.
A bill to create a commission on lynching has been introduced in the House by Representatives Martin Ansorge of Harlem, New York. It is practically a companion bill to the McCormick measure introduced in the Senator recently.

WESTERN-FERREEBEE
a early early wye wedding was
that of Miss Evola Inez Weston to
George Anderson Ferreebee which occu-
rred Monday night at the home of
the bride's parents, 772 E. Waldburg
street. The wedding party marched
into the spacious parlor to the strains
of Lobengrin's wedding march, played
by Mrs. Matthew Horne. The first
to enter was the bridesmaid, Miss
Dorothy Grant, accompanied by Jas.
Baldwin. Next was Miss Marlon
Weston, sister of the bride. The
groom marched in on the arm of his
best man, Newell Keys. The bride
entered on the arm of her father and
was met at the altar by the groom.
The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Arnold E. Gregory, pastor of the First Congregational church, during which was played the Melody of Love. After the ceremony the reception was held at the the Catholic hall, where a delightful time was had.
The bride wore an ivory satin and chantily lace, embroidered in seed pearls, which was beautifully fashioned with loose panels, combined with lace, and rope girdle of pearls. Her well was of tulle and orange blossoms, and she wore silver cloth slippers. Her bouquet was of valley illies and bridal roses, tied with tulle.
Miss Marion Weston, sister of the bride, wore pink satin combined with pink georgette, made of loose panels and streaming girdle of pink satin, with touches of metallic silver, and silver cloak slippers to match. She carried a bouquet of pink snap dragons and Russell roses.

PUTTING ON DRIVE
The Ware county Farmers Union is putting on a drive to have their members and the colored people in the County to take better care of their wells and drinking water.
It has been found that much of the sickness in that county is due to the people drinking bad water.
Mr. A. H. Hinesman, county agent has visited two hundred homes and inspected twenty wells and assisted in repairing ten of these wells during the last twenty days.
Much of the early garden crops was badly hurt by the frost and cold weather last week but since it has turned warmer and the rain has come the crops are now beginning to look better and much that was not up in beginning to come up now.
Most of the club girls lost their tomatoes and beans but they were encouraged by their county agent to plant over and now every one is busy planting and replanting. The Club spirit is very high among the colored boys and girls of Ware County. They are expecting a visit from Mr. Tabor the Supervisor of all the boys and girls club work of Georgia and they are trying to be ready when he comes. Mr. Hinesman reports 50 boys and girls in the clubs up to date. The Better Wells campaign will last for ten days more.
DANGER OF OAK LEAVES
POISONING STOCK IN SPRING
Oak leaves, if eaten continuously by cattle, produce a slackness which frequently proves fatal, investigations conducted by specialists of the United States Department of Agricultural show. Most oak leaf poisoning, the specialists say, occurs in the spring, for at that time there is a severity of green forage on many ranges and the craving which stock have for green food leads them to eat the leaves in excessive amounts. In order to tansackness, however, oak leaves must be eaten almost exclusively. If eaten with other food, the animals are not in forest. It has been found experimentially that as small a quantity as 3 pounds daily of uffalfa hay fed in connection with oak leaves prevented poisoning.
Observation on the range and experimental feeling both show that some cattle may eat oak leaves for a long time with no definite bad effect, and some will even eat them exclusively with no harm. Generally speaking those that are injured show the results only after eating a considerable quantity through a rather prolonged period, usually from 10, to 35 days. The specialists point out that the oaks can many ranges furnish a most important element in summer feed when additional sources of forage are available, but they urge that care be exercised during the spring that cattle be not admitted to summer range at too early a date, for oak leaves are well advanced be fore the appearance of the grasses.
I am feeling fine because my tomato
seeds are up and are growing fine.
I am so proud of my tomatoes I can
hardly write. Dear agent I will never
forget the day you taught me how to
can my first jar of tomatoes. I am going
to make a egg in nest Sunday and
metropolitan sandwiches, for I expect
to have company. I am going to do
the best for the better because it will
do me good in a latter day.
I have tried to get some more girls
to join the club, and three have decided
to join next month, this is from
your affectionate club girl.

Savannah, Ga., April 25, 1921
Dear agent Miss Conyers:
Just a few lines to let you hear from me. I hope that you are well. My garden is fine, my tomatoes are not so good but my snap-beans and corn are just fine. I hope my veg tales will succeed in growing also in bearing.
Last year my garden failed to do any thing much, but this year I am trying to do my best by my garden. I am sure glad it ruined last Thursday it was a help to my garden and the seeds are just bursting through the soil. I wish that every girl was a member of this canning club, because we have such a good agent that is trying hard to teach us so many helpful things that we should know. I am trying to crochet a little as I like it, and its time for girls to know how to do a little of any kind of work. Dear agent we hope that you will be successful in your work. I am going to do all that's needed to be done in my garden to make a success this year.

Savannah and Macon
Play Tie Game
League Opened Here On Thursday
With Good Game
The colored South Atlantic League
opened here Thursday afternoon when
the Macon baseball team and the Savannah Syndicate Club met on the Ga-
State College diamond.
The three-scheduled games for Thursday, Friday and Saturday were to be
played by the Alhany Red Sox, but a change in the line up of the clubs
brought the Macon team here to play the series of games.
The game of Thursday was snappy throughout and both teams played good ball, the visiting team hereover, having a shade the best of the local team. For four innings the score went up 1 to 1 until the seventh inning when a low throw from short to first by "Chick" of the local club, two passes on balls off Roberts, filling the bases and a crack to left field for two bases netted the visitors three runs and playing the score 4 to 1. In the same inning, however, the home team rallied and placed three more runs to its credit, again tipping the score. At this point the game became very exciting and both teams tightening up and an excellent brand of ball was played. In the ninth inning both teams agile scored and caused the game to go to ten innings when it was called on account of darkness, the score standing 5 to 5.
Batteries: Macon, Wiggins and Felton; Savannah, Hudson and Roberts unipire, Outlaw.
A fairly good attendance witness the game of Thursday and from the class of ball put up by the trans., the gain this afternoon on the Ga. Stat College diamond should be well at tended.
Hampton, Va., April 27th—Uni-
liversity won over the Hampton In-
stitute nine in a slugging contest
on the Institute grounds on Saturday
April 22. The game started with the
pitchers fighting hard, but this figh-
only lasted for one inning.
Hampton scored the first run in thir-
second, and the slugging begin-
lery man on each team had a bli-
ky's work, as the batters kno-
cker them all over the field. Things wer
interesting until the fifth inning, whel
Hampton began to pile up errors an-
union began to pile up a score. The
comedy of errors cost Hampton four
runs in the sixth, five in the seventh
and three in the eighth.
Ball pitched a good game until the sixth, when Union filled the bases with no hands out. Robinson went in and Union continued to slug. Qualio ried his hand, but still the slugging continued. The game ended with Union 14 and Hampton 6.
ATLANTA UNIVERSITY
DEFEATS MO
Atlanta, Ga., April 21. The Atlanta University baseball team defeated Morehouse College in Championship game by a score of 6 to 2. Atlanta University also won the first game of the season between these two colleges. The score being 5 to 1. The ability of the A. U. team to display inside baseball caused them to make three runs in the first inning. Henderson, the left hand twirler of A. U. with a fast and sure team behind him held the Morehouse team scoreless until the last of the seventh. Only one ball penetrated the fast A. U. team. Franklin, the first basement of A. U. hit two doubles and a home run in three times at bat. The game was fast throughout. During the entire game Atlanta University showed that they had the best team and the best team won both games. Battery Henderson and Callen.
Atlanta University also defeated Tuskegee last Tuesday in Atlanta in a fast and snappy game. Battery, Clay and Callen.
The feature of the Morehouse game was the superb batting of Callen, a Savannah boy, who scored the first home-run hit and made several other clean hits. Bubber Perry and Merritt Colen both were on the scene giving advice and were cheered many times as they led the college yell.
LETTER CARRIERS AND
UNIVERSAL CROSS BATS
A great crowd of spectators gather
moon to witness the greatest and the
most enthusiastic game of the season
ed at Cleary's park Saturday after
in which the Letter-Carriers and the
Universal-base-ball teams were the
prime factors. They met each other,
full of pop coupled with ambition and
enthusiasm, like two strong men to
run a race.
The game was called at 5 o'clock.
Capt. Nixon, of the Letter-Carriers
team, took the out field with Nat Bran
ham behind the bat and Jérome Jones
in the box. Jones in some way strained
his arm from excessive throwing
the day before and it seemed absolutely impossible for him to get into action with the old time jig, which so naturally characterizes him, although he showed remarkable skill and ambition and pitched good ball under the circumstances.
The first man up on the Universal team knocked a home run. During the first inning, every man on the Universal team showed himself to be an expert stickman. Several errors were made in the out field thereby allowing three men to score very easily. At this point they changed slides and the Letter-Carriers found that they were facing one of Savannah's greatest twirlers, who showed his ability by striking out some of the hardest hitters on the Carriers team. By the superior batting of Dawry and Mattox the Carriers were able to score 2 runs in that inning, thus increasing the enthusiasm among the players of both slides.
At the beginning of the 3rd inning Jefferson took the mound for the Carriers and through his professional pitching the Universals was made to feel they were up against a hard proposition. From the 3rd inning on was a pitcher's battle, neither side scoring at the beginning of the fifth and last inning with the score 5 to 4 the Universals made their last and hardest struggle. With one man on third and one down. At this period one hit could have tled the score which would have looked very dark to the Carriers. One of the best hitters of the Universal team were sent up but failed to hit Jefferson's favorite ball.
The Carriers would be pleased to take on any other amateur team in the city.
20LORED RESIDENTS
DRIVEN FROM HOME
Wheeling, W. Va., April 72th (Associated Negro Press)—Driven from their homes in many instarges without being given an opportunity to collect their belongings; colored residents of Beech Bottom, Brooke county, have ought temporary refuge in surrounding towns, nearly a score being housed in hotels and among friends in Wheeling.
The race riot Saturday was the aftermath of an attack Friday night in Mrs. John Horne, a white woman, 22 years old, who was waylaid, it is selleled, by two prisoners who escaped from the Well-burg jail. One of the prisoners was a Negro.
The mob spirit developed soon after news was received in Beech Bottom if the outrage and many colored civilians were warned by friends that they all better leave the community. No violence was shown, however, till after dark when a crowd collected and made a tour of the colored section. Families were aroused from their beds and informed that they had till noon Sunday to get out, these warnings being punctuated with a fuselade of shot. From one refugee, a woman who with two small children, is now staying at the Veise Hotel on Market street, it was learned that the mob numbered at times 75 men and boys, some of the latter appearing not more than 14 years old, and all armed with rifles, revolvers and shot guns.
From the Brook county sheriff's office assurance was given yesterday that the community was quiet, and that extra deputies were patrolling the section to prevent further outbreaks. One colored man, J. C Casson, manager of a boarding house for colored workman, defied the mop when called on him, declaring that he would not yield his rights until he was killed. He and one other man are the only colored person who shared in Boech Bottom over night. It is reported.
LEADERS' INSTITUTE. IN
RECOLLECTION HELD
New York, N. Y., April 9th (Associated Negro Press)—The Community Leaders' Institute in Tikreagition Field during the past week at the Public Library by North Harlem Community Service of which B. B. Church is the director, was a notable success. Probably never before has a similar training school contributed so largely to the social, cultural and artistic life of any community.
Mr. E. T. Atwell, Field Director of the Dur air of Colored Worl in Community Service who was in charge of the Institute sounded the key-note of the week's program when he sat at the opening: "We come to quicken the interest of the chosen leaders of this community in the recreation movement. We hope to do this by means of lectures, demonstrations in the various phases of the recreation program."
Assisting Mr. Alwell in the work of the Institute, men and women talented as specialists conducted the various activities. Among these were: Mrs Corinne Thomas Charlly in games and folk dances, Mrs. Ethel Clarke, Mr. Kenneth Clark, and Mr. Willem Van de Wall in music, and Mrs. May Pashley Harris in dramas. These were in turn assisted by people of the community most noted for special endeavor in protection fire. The local speakers were: Dr. Lee Blitz Nearen, Mr. Harry T. Burleigh, Rev. Floors Howard, Miss Vincente Rose, Mrs. Dord Cold Normand and Miss Sage Clapp, Mr. Caffeee E. Mead rendered selections "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde," and seldom has a Negro actor

FRIENDLY SOUTHERNER SUED BY COLORED TENANT
Cernshaw, Miss, April 27th (Associated Negro Press)—G. Tom Taylor, long a big factor with the Negro vote in the Republican party in Tennessee and who has been considered a friendly southerner by many of the race, has been sued by a colored tenant, Pleasant H. Brown, due to the operation of one of the Taylor plantations near Cernshaw, Miss. Brown charges that his store account in the general store which Taylor owned, for the crop of 1919 was $490.19, that he raised 10 bales of cotton; that Mr. Taylor got that and the seed, but that he has never been able to get a settlement out of Mr. Taylor. He sues also for damages for being intimidated and for $1,000 as the value of his household gods which were taken. This is a typ-

Memphis, Tenn., April 27th (Associated Negro Press)—Cansy Storall, a colorful girl, was infiltrated by an editor in the Memphis Steam Laundry while she was at work there. She sued for damages to the amount of $7,000. In the development of the suit a peculiar statute came to light as the controlling point in the suit.
If Pausy at the time of the accident was more than 16 years of age she cannot recover. If Pausy is less than 14 years of age she cannot recover. Tennessee has a special statute by which females between those ages who are employed in laundries and some other institutions have special rights in court in that the employer cannot make certain pleas that he can as to ages above 16 and below. 14 years. The jury has the case under advisement.

OPRIE-In sad but loving remembrance of our dear husband and brother, Anufwë Oprie, who departed this life May 1, 1920.
One year ago you left us, how we miss your loving face, but you left us to remember that your place can never be filled. A happy home we once enjoyed. Oh, how sweet the memory still, but death has left a vacancy, this world can never fill.
SCOTT—In losing remembrance of my husband, John Scott, who departed this life May the 1, 1920.
One sad year has passed away since you have left me, yet it seems but yesterday. In the home circle as I gather around the familiar altar, I can't refrain from shedding tears for one whose cheerful presence is not there, and at evening when the shadows are gathering I often sit and think of him, when I am all alone. He has passed lifes, chilling billows and gone to rest.
Sleep on and take thy rest. I love you but Jesus love you best.
Wife, Mrs. John Scott.

As constant as the day,
As sweet as your memory,

gate was open and a gentle voice said come and with farewell unspoken, my husband sweetly entered home. His parting words, were: Dear wife give me up and God will provide for you and my children, come sweet Jesus. Thou hast left us dear in the land of fear. But some glad day 'twill soon be over where parting be no more we love the dear heart and did our best to keep you here with us, but God who knows best took thee home to rest.

REVIEW OF COLored AUTORS
TO APPEAR IN PUBLICATION
New York, N. Y., April 27th (Associated Negro Press)—Mellon Russell, motion picture critic of the Billboard, has recently made the first professional review of a motion picture by colored actors to appear in that publication. In reviewing the "Sport of the Globe," Miss Russell says:
"We have always maintained that the colored race possesses unbounded talent to display humor or pathos by its pantomine ability. This has been demonstrated in "The Sport of the Gods," a six-feel picture containing but a few white performers, who respectively interpret the characters of the master of a Virginia estate and his spinster sister. The balance of the story revolves about the vices attitudes which beset their one time colored servants who have left to seek their fortune in the big city. The paths of the leading characters and the comedy action of some versatile comedians blend nicely with the progression of the story. There are many scenes of cabarets which offer colored dancers.
"Excellent impersonations were offered by Leon Wililams, Lucille Brown, Elizabeth Boyer and Stanley Walpole. Many others were engaged in minor roles which helped to round out the picture in a satisfactory manner. Their manes are Ed R. Adams, George F. Brown, Jean Kmour, Walter Thomas, Laurence Chenault, Ruby Mason and Jim Burrell.

THE OUTER WORLD
It is not alone on the consecrated floor of a Mason's lodge, nor within the circle of the Sons of Light, that the brethren of the great fraternity should practice the virtues inculcated or the duties imposed by Freemasonry: Abroad in the outer world, in the daily walks of life, in their business invocations, at their homes, among the profane, should all their actions be governed by that Masonic Charity which embraces the whole duty of man to man. We see not in this life the end of human actions.
The influence never dies, but in ever widening circles it reaches beyond the grave. Death remores us from this to an eternal world, and time will determine what shall be our condition in that world. Every morning when we go forth, we lay the moulding hand on our destiny, and every evening when we have done, we have left a deathless impression on our character. We touch not a wire but vibrates in eternity; not a voice but reports at the throne of God. Let Masons especially think of these things, and let every one remember that in this world, where character is in its formation state, it is a serious thing to think, to speak, to act—L. L. Masonic News.
EXAMINING VISITORS
Probably there is no Mason duty so little understood as that of examining lodge visitors. The great majority of committees examine a visitor as if he was seeking advancement in the degrees, instead of simply satisfying themselves that he has been regularly initiated in a legally constituted lodge, and there is no set rule for arriving at this knowledge. The repetition of the regular lectures is certainly one of the most unreliable examinations, for this is where an imposter fortifies himself, and an original and unexpected question may utterly confuse and rout a gibl imposter. Recently, an examining committee of a reliable professional man, who recently located in their midst, entered the lodge alone and reported that the visitor was a Mason in good standing (he had receipts for dues in several Masonic bodies), but he could
not give one of the words, and they could not admit him. The brother turned away in supreme disgust, and it was only by earnest percussion that he was induced to apply to another lodge and was admitted. As the committee of the first lodge reported that they were satisfied that the visitor was a regular Mason, the worshipful master should have ordered his admission. It is not the purpose to make lodge visiting as difficult as possible, but as easy as possible within the limits of safety—Texas Freemason.
BACK FROM PACIFIC
COAST SPEAKING TOUR
Chicago, IL, April 27th (Associated Negro Press)—William Monroe Trotter, Editor of the Boston Guardian and Secretary of the National Equal Rights League, reached Chicago on Friday from his speaking tour to the Pacific coast. He was in good fighting trim, with addresses to make at two Chicago churches before he went into Iowa to fill engagements and pursue a civil rights case at Oskaloosa where he and his manager were refused a meal.
Mr. Trotter said that as for the states of Iowa, Kansas, Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado and Nebraska, he had found the colored people striving and improving their condition in education, business, the professions, in property and homes. They were demonstrating ever increasing capacity as worthy citizens. On the other hand, except perhaps in Nebraska, they were very generally without available civil rights. Color discrimination seemed on the increase! Whereas 20 years ago in all these states, except perhaps Kansas, there was little if any discrimination according to the testimony of old residents, now there was a great deal of deprivation of rights.
Mr. Trotter ascribed this in the large to two main causes. The white southerners had come North and demanded that colored people be barred, determined to extend the practices of the South. When the prescription was started the colored people, especially those from the South yielded and in the surrender on their part the white South had won.
The greatest aid to the South was the excuse by the race that they "would not go where they were not wanted and sooah they found they were not wanted in any public places and

were reduced to civic serfs. The race had also alced the white South by accepting and adopting this very segregation where money was in sight and by separate Christain Associations, recreation and Community Centers and even Jim Crow Schools. In the North the younger generation of whites had become unaccustomed to the presence of the dark face where they gathered publicly.
He said so widespread had become the civil disfranchisement of the race in the North that a new, nation-wide movement was needed at once or the race would be permanently segregated. The National Equal Rights League feels, he said, that the movement should begin at the National Capital in the Executive Department of the government where federal segregation should be abolished and urged the formation of Equal Rights Committees everywhere to send written requests to President Harding to "wipe it out." The League claims credit in part for President Harding's message, reco
mending an inter-racial Commission on the wrongs to the race, as the idea was presented to President Harding by the League, President, Rev. M. A. N. Shaw, of Boston, at a personal audience and had also filed with the Attorney-General.
PATROLMAN DISCHARGED
FOR GOOD OF THE FORCE
Memphis, Tenn., April 27th (Associated Negro Press)—B. F. Weaver, who for the past year and a half has served as patrolman on the police department, has been discharged for the good of the force. Charges against the officer grew out of his alleged mistreatment of a colored man named Lawrence Williams, whom he is accused of striking, and otherwise imposing on. White persons then became interested in the case and presented the facts available to Chief Burney, who ordered an inquiry. Inspector Griffin and Captains Hoyle and Boyles conducted the investigation and recommended the release of Weaver from
