Many Prominent Speakers Present CONGRESSMAN FESS DECLARES ALL CHILDREN SHOULD RECEIVE EDUCATION Atlanta, May 10. What has been pronounced as the most successful and beneficial session of the Georgia Association for the Advancement of Education Among Negroes, the Georgia Association of Teachers in Colored Schools and the Georgia Colored Parent Teachers Association and what has been conceded to have been the most important meeting, ever held here by educators, social workers, business and professional men and women convened in this city May 4th through the 7th. "The Negro youth of Georgia shall be educated" was the slogan of the convention and characterized the conduct of all the discussions. Many of the most seasoned minds, at the close of the session expressed themselves as recognizing the dawn of a new day in the educational life of the youth of this commonwealth. The joint session opened May 4th, S. p. m. in the auditorium of Bethel A. M. E. church, Prof. C. I. Harper, presiding. The welcome address was delivered by Dr. J. W. E. Bowen on behalf of the citizens of Atlanta. Response on behalf of the Association of Teachers in Colored Schools was made by prof. Silas N. Floyd, Prof. H. A. H. hunt responded on behalf of the Georgia Association . for the Advancement of Education Among Negroes. Mrs. H. H. Butter, president of the parent-teachers association spoke on the importance of parent and teachers co-operating in order to obtain the best results in the training of the youth. Capt. A. T. Walden outfielder the minimum amount the Georgia Association asked for the college school authorities for Negro education. Music for the occasion was furnished by Miss Annie Masse, Miss Sly and an octette from the Gate City Teachers Association. The first day's session began Thursday morning noon 32 o'clock. President H. A. Hunt, presiding. "To what extent are Negroes taking part in education and how can they be induced to do more" was ably discussed by Prof. W. P. Strickland. "To what extent are public school officials showing interest among Negroes and how can they be induced to do more" was discussed by Walter B. Hill, supervisor rural schools. Mr. Hill advocates the system of placing the school on a paying basis, building of as few schools as possible and the consolidation of many rural schools by building larger and more buildings, thus making it possible for students in rural schools to secure at least 9th grade education before going elsewhere for training. "How can inter-racial committees help in securing better schools for Negroes" was discussed by Dr. W. W. Alexander and Mrs. J. E. Andrews, white of Atlanta. Both outlined a very definite program by which better schools for Negroes could be secured by the co-operation of the two racial groups. At the afternoon session the annual address was given by President Hunt and a report by Dr. J. A. Martin, field secretary. Dr. Martin stated that through the association additional county demonstrators and Jeanne agents had been appointed. In the study of 13 counties he found an average school term of 6 months and an average salary of $35 per month. An interview character of the session was Prof I. S. Ingram of Spartin, a pioneer in Negro education, having taught for 40 years. "What he can be taken to have Negroes share more largely in bond issues" was discussed by H. W. Russell. Thursday evening opened at 5 p.m. Prof. H. A. Hunt, presiding. "The Need of co-operation between religious and educational forces and how it may be obtained" was discussed by Dr. Shamuria, pastor Warren Chapel M. E. church and Dr. M. W. Redickell of Americus, Dr. Shamuria said "Insurance is a common enemy to all well organized society; it has not neither racial nor geographical significance. When America and her allies recognized Germany as her common foe it was possible for black men and white men of every part of America to, for the time being at least, lay aside whatever differences they may have had one with the other and come together with the strength of united man-power to put the enemy to flight. As ignorance and its allies, vice crime and superstition are enemies to educational forces and to religious organizations alike, the time has come for all of these forces to make common Music for the occasion was furnished by a group of singers from Spelman Seminary, Morris Brown University, Misses Nable and Rosa Hall. An unexpected selection and one that delighted the audience was the contralto solo rendered by Miss Annie H. Simmons. One of the most definite contributions made to the discussion of the whole convention was the address of Prof Clinton J. Calloway of Tuskegee Institute who perhaps has done more toward getting various agencies to co-operate in building better schools in rural communities than any other (Continued on page 4) The Savannah Tribune. Exercises Held Sunday at Tabernacle Church Splendidly Conducted The nine local lodges of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, the Patriarch, Past Grand Master's Council and the Households of Ruth, held befitting exercises on Sunday afternoon at Tabernacle Baptist church in celebration of the annual thanksgiving of the order. The lodges assembled at Odd Fellows hall, Duffy street, west, and marched in a body to the church, the procession was headed by Grand Marshal, George Anderson. The line of march is given out in last week's issue of The Tribune was followed. The lodges made a creditable showing, having out a larger attendance than has taken part in these exercises for several years. The interest manifested by the members and the showing made last Sunday will no doubt have a tendency to influence the return to the order of many that have dropped out on account of the condition the order was placed in through the differences of the grand lodge and national officers. The exercises were splendidly conducted and the participants acquitted themselves admirably. NEAR MILLION AND QUARTER FOR EDUCATION NEAR MILLION AND QUARTER FOR EDUCATION W. Virginia Makes Liberal Appropriations STATE TO HAVE EIGHT INSTITUTIONS FOR THE EDUCATION OF NEGROES Charleston, W. Va. May 9—Over a million dollars, or, to be exact, $1,256,216.46 was the total of the appropriations made by the West Virginia legislature, before its adjournment last week, for the creation and support during the next two fiscal years beginning July 1st next, of Negro agencies and Institutions, educational, elec- mency and corrective. Of this amount approximately, one-third goes to the West Virginia Collegiate Institute, which receives for salaries, buildings and current and other expenses $433,724.46. For the same purposes the Bluefield Colored Institute has placed to its credit $132,644, and Shorter College, a private school, $6,000. The newly created institution fared equally as well, the hospital for ins- geting $150,000 for buildings and land and $20,000 for current general expenses. The industrial school for boys was allowed $150,000 for buildings and land, and a similar home for girls $60,000. Including the insurance derived from the burning of the colored Orphan Home, that institution is to receive for rebuilding $125,000, the tuberculosis sanitarium gets $22,500, and the deaf and blind school $30,000. Other appropriations were: bureau of Negro Welfare and statistics $12,200 supervisor of Negro schools, $5,400; advisory council to the state board of education, $2,200. The state has already bought a 650 acre farm of rich bottom land as a site for the hospital for the insane, and negotiations are pending for a location for the deaf and blind school. The erection of buildings for both these establishments probably will be begun in the near future. Sites for the school for incorrigible boys and the home for wayward girls are to be selected by the advisory council, co-operating with the state board of control. When these are completed the state will have eight institutions for and under the management of Negroes. There was little disposition on the part of any member of the legislature to cut the recommendation for the institutions. Many of the white leaders championed them. The two Negro members of the Lower House viz: Harry S. Caphart, of Keystone, W. V., and T. G. Nutter of Charleston, W. V., placed all of their influence behind the interests of the Negroes of the state and were to a great degree responsible for the express degree responsible. The efforts of other Negroes in the state in behalf of legislation affecting Negroes as well as the whites show the progressive spirit of the West Virginia Negroes. ARRESTED FOR PLACING POSTERS IN WINDOWS Washington, D. C, May 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Fifty delegates attending the conference of the National Hate Congress presented a memorial to President Harding today protesting against lynching, peonage, unjust restriction in the exercise of suffrage Jim Crow laws and the practice of segregating on account of color in government departments in Washington. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY MAY 14 1921 Gov. Dorsey Stands Firm On Pamphlet REFUSES. TO MODIFY STATEMENTS: MADE IN PAMPHLET ON THE NEGRO BUT CALLS UPON CITIZENS TO AID IN BETTERING THE BAD CONDITIONS IN GEORGIA Atlanta, May 12, Gov. Dorsey to day released for publication letters he has mailed to Judge W. E. H. Searcy of the Flint circuit, Judge E. T. Shurley and Solicitor General M. L. Felts of the Toombs circuit, all of whom had previously made public letters addressed by them to him bearing on the pamphlet by the Governor and circulated under title "A statement from Gov. Hugh M. Dorsey as to the Negro in Georgia." Both the communications are concocted in highly digressive language, but are quite pithy, pointed and pertinent. The correspondence follows: **Letter to Judge Scarey** *Dear Sir: As it was my desire to handle the cases called to my attention and cited by me in my statement with reference to the Negro in Georgia without directing attention to the particular town and county in which the cases were alleged to have occurred, I refrained from giving any names. I regret that your letter brings publicity to The Rock, Upson county and your court. I had hoped, and I still hope, that your position would recognize what it is that I am less熟悉 of the matter cited by me; that the Negro has been subjected to mistreatment in Georgia and that the time has come to inaugurate a new policy, if we are to retain our own self-respect and maintain in our position a civilized people before the world. "Since 1885, there have been 145 Negroes ingrusted in Georgian. Reports to me with reference to the case of Edd White, the Negro referred to by you, confined me at the time that he would be traced if allowed to remain in jail. Upson county, in person, reenlisted him. By reason order him removed to Ribb county for safekeeping. This was done, saving the life of the man. I believe. "I caused an investigation—a white citizen of Georgia in whom I have every confidence—to go to Upson county to investigate the facts surrounding the case. The facts embodied in my statement are based upon his report in writing to me as governor of Georgia. This report is now before me. The name of the man who kicked the Negro girl in the stomach; the names of seven leading citizens who testify as to the good character and reputation of the Negro and who mite in expressing the opinion that the case against him was one of persecution; the names of four leading citizens in your circuit who stataled a committee had waited upon you and that you informed them that White would be put in the chalking—the names and the statements of these citizens are embodied in the report. Report of Situation The report in part states: "I attach hereto a letter from Mr., leading merchant of _____, to Colored Youth Should Continue Training CAMPAIGN TO HAVE STUDENTS FURTHER PURSE STUDIES BEING CONDUCTED THIS WEEK Washington, D. C. May 12—President Harding has given his approval and good will to the second annual "Go to High School. Go to College" drive which is a nation-wide campaign to encourage Negro youth to continue their education, being conducted this week, May 9th to 13th, by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the pioneer Negro college fraternity, at its arvillous chapters situated throughout the United States. In a letter to Norman L. McGhee, the general secretary of the fraternity, President Harding wrote that the results of the first drive held June 6 to 12, 1920, seem to justify the repetition of the effort this year. "The need for effective work to reduce illiteracy among the colored people", he added, "is very great and manifestly it can be accomplished chiefly through, the equipment of members of the colored race to do educational work among their own people. You may be sure of my earnest sympathy and good will. Last year 2000 members of the fraternity of the country carried the gospel of "stay in high school and "go to college" to 500 schools, 700 churches and to a half million' parents and pupils. It is the hope of the fraternity to reach one million pupils this year." the effect that it his own knowledge White's reputation was good, and that he had credit at his place from $100 to $1,500 per year. Mr. — further stated that the treatment of White and his family was perfectly outrageous and a disgrace to Georgia. That the whole matter came about through feelings of White's success. That White was innocent, was foully treated, and ought to be pardoned outright. "Mr. — leading merchant of —, stated that he had known White for many years. That White had good credit at his place. That White had never gotten arrested before in his life that he had ever heard of. "I attach a letter written by — the leading — company of —. This letter states White's credit was good; also that his reputation for peaceableness is good, and his general reputation is good. These people state that White was not prosecuted but persecuted and that he ought to be pardoned. "I called to see Mr. _____ leading merchant of _____ and one of the biggest farm owners in that section of the state. He stated that he knew your excellence personally. He added to tell us that he was off. If he sent to the chalkgang or fluid one cent that the court house of Georgia ought to be torn town." "I called to see every merchant in one, and without exception every one of them stated that White and his family had a good reputation, and had good credit; and they had never heard of them getting in trouble before. Several merchants told me that they could not afford to write letters, and I told them that I told me that White was being persecuted but he could not afford to get in a controversy between a Negro and white people." "The report gives a detailed account of the shooting up of the Negro's home, when only his wife and small children were in it. View of the Investigator "In the report the investigator says: "I regret that some of the good people who talked to me would not write letters to your excellency. This was due to one of three things: Timidity, not desire to take a Negro's part against white people, or fear of ruining their business. The best people told me to tell you that If White or any of his family ever put their foot in Upon county again and it was known to the people of The Rock, that they would be lynched. "I was told by several good people that the trial of White was a fake and a travesty of justice. That a certain class of people in Upon county had it in for any Negro that was the least prosperous and White especially; that they were determined to put him in the chaining; that if it took it ten witnesses to contact him they would get him; if it took it hundred, they would put up a hundred, and if it took 1,000, they would put up 1,000." "The report covers twelve typewritten pages. I quote only one of it to show you the type of matter that you can see when I included this case in the number cited by me in my statement. You will, I believe, agree with me that these facts justify the use which I have made of the information. "You state that you did not make the remark to the committee which waited upon you, as was reported to the investigator by four of your fellow citizens. I accept your statement as correct, but even when I do this, with the facts reported to me, I cannot modify my conclusions as to the case. "It was not my purpose, and it is not now my intention to go into a trial of each of the 155 cases cited by me. For this reason, I purposefully refrained from the publication of names, and it is now with the greatest reluctance that I publish the facts reported to me as to Upson county, being forced to take this step by your letter. It is not my desire to injure the reputation of any county, town or, official, but I do wish to awaken the people of Georgia to what I regard as the greatest threatening our state. This peril, I believe to be due to a failure upon the part of the majority of our people to appreciate what is taking place and the staggering sum total of charges made against us as a people in connection with our treatment of the Negro. "I appeal again to men of your position and to the press of the state to unite in this effort, and to refrain from trying to slide-track the question in a controversy over this or any other single case. I am confident that you and ninety-five per cent of the people of your circuit and of the state desire to do only what is best for the state and for our people both black and white. Will you not join me in seeking for a remedy for conditions which are causing the state to lose laborers whom we need, giving us an unspeakable reputation before the world, and planting the seed of lawlessness among our people that will prove disastrous to our children if not stopped?” The following letter was written to Judge E. T. Shurley and Solicitor General Felt of the Toombs circuit: Gentlemen; Replying to your letter of May 2, in which you expressed sentiment at my letter calling your attention to the alleged mobbing of Oscar Edwards. I call your attention to the fact that mention of this case had appeared in the press prior to the publication of the letter in my letter in view of the facts. I should have been derelict in my duty as governor if I had failed to direct your attention specifically to this case as it was reported to me. "One reason for this statement is that in 1991, Spearman Evans, a Negro in Tallafero county, appealed for executive clemency. The Atlanta Journal for Monday, March 25, 1991 says: "The Negro was sentenced to be hanged last Friday on a charge of criminal assault. Governor Dorsey granted blm a respite until Friday April 25. The lynching took place a few hours after news of the respite reached Crawfordville." "The Negro who was lynched had already been condemned to die. The respite of thirty days was granted only after a play by governor he time to get the facts of the case, which were wholly unknown to me. If any action has been taken to punish the members of the mob, it has come to my attention. W. J. Sturditant, to whom you refer, I believe, was sheriff at the time. "You say that the cause of the heating of Oscar Edwards was the use by the Negro of an oath, 'one which no Southern white man accepts.' I am sure that you will agree with me that the true spirit of the Anglo-Saxon, to which you refer with pride in which I share, calls for the resentment of such an insult at the time when given, and never justifies writing for the night to go in a garden, however small, beaten up, or killed. "Accepting as wholly true the reasoning advanced for this whipping of this Negro." I am sure that you as sworn officer of the law will agree with me that the law has been violated by these men. As intelligent men, you will further agree with me that the manner of the violation is typical of causes underlying the 415 cases of lynching which have disgraced our state. Under the circumstances I feel sure that the court in which you gentlemen serve will see that the honor of the law is vindicated in Tallafero (Ncontinued on page 4) NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE OFFERS 2 FELLOWSHIPS GREAT DEMAND FOR - TRAINED WORKERS AND EXCELLENT OP PORTUNITIES ARE OFFERED.

CONGRESSMAN MADDEN LAUDS RECORD MADE BY COLORED TROOPS SERVING ABROAD The grand opening of the Musicians Protective Association Club at 522 West Waldburg street will take place next week. The nights set aside for the stazing of the event are Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The affair will be a musical feature and each night of the opening there will be dancing and other amusements for the enjoyment of those that attend. It is very likely that several of the leading social clubs of the city will take part in the opening by attending in a body. The building which will house the musician is the two-story frame structure on the southeast corner of Waldburg and Barroughs streets, formerly used by the Einer Wood Club. The building has been thoroughly renovated and is in a most presentable condition. New furniture has been installed and suitable arrangements have been made for the comfort of its members. The Musicians' Union is composed of three bands and six orchestras, T. H. Green, president; and E. A. Snails as secretary, the latter being in charge of the club rooms. CHICAGO BUILDINGS ROCKED BY A BOMB CHICAGO BUILDINGS ROCKED BY A BOMB Ministers And Business Men Visit Mayor WOMEN AND GIRL STUDENTS TUMBLED FROM BED BY FORCE OF EXPLOSION Chicago, Ill., May 11th (Associated Negro Press).—Two flat buildings at 701-701; H. Fifthth street, were rocked by a bomb exploded last Friday night in an area way between the structures. Both buildings are owned and occupied by Negroes. Young women and girl students tumbled from their beds by the force of the detonation, at St. Narier's Academy, 412S Cottage Grove avenue. Many of the children rushed down from the academy in their night garments, believing the domiciliary wrecked. The explosion was heard for several miles. Residents near Washington Park thought at first the bomb had been set off at the home of Jesse Blinga, Negro real estate dealer and banker living at 3022 South Park avenue. His home has been bombed a number of times. The two structures attacked by the bombers are owned by Mrs. A. M. Polk and by C. A. Robinson. White families, who formerly occupied the flats, were instructed to move several months ago when the Negroes took possession. More than 200 Negro ministers and business men, headed by Mr. Blinga and the Rev. W. S. Braddon, last Friday sought an interview with Mayor Thompson to ask that the city offer a general reward for the apprehension of bomb vandals. The delegation, which was unable to see the Mayor, announced that it would appeal to the city council at its next meeting, asking that $100,000 of the city's money be set aside for the rewards. Alderman I. B. Anderson, of the Second ward, colored, will introduce the proposal and unless he and the Mayor help the delegation promised to be against them. SOCIAL CLUBS' UNION HOLDS INST HOLDS INSTALLATION The Social Club' s Union held its regular monthly meeting at the Savannah Home Association, Friday evening May the 6th.

SCOTT ASSEMBLED DOCUMENTS TO CONTROVERT GERMAN PROPAGANDA. Washington, D. C. May 19—Recently in the House of Representatives, Honorable Martin B. Madden of Illinois spoke with particular reference to certain statements which have been made derogatory to the services of colored troops abroad. Mr. Madden, through a sense of fair-play, insisted that certain correspondence he had received from Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer, Howard University, together with other letters and newspaper reports which clearly and definitely controverted the charges made against colored troops should be entered in the Congressional Record as an act to the propaganda which has been under way for some months to discredit not only the record of colored American troops abroad but the record of French colonial troops in the accrued area as well. Dr. Scott assembled a formidable array of documents to controversy this German propaganda in America including a letter written by Ambassador Jusserand of the French Republic to Mr. Henry E. F. Parker, of the Howard Park Citizens' Association, Washington, D.C., in which M. Jusserand states that the allegations constantly and persistently spread by German propaganda against our colored troops are absolutely, unfounded that their behavior does not justify in 'the least the scurrious accusations freely launched against them in sheets sent here from Germany, ready printed and in enormous quantities, for distribution all over the country. The correspondence also contained clippings from the New York Times, the Washington Post, Associated Press dispatches, and correspondence between Senator Seldon Spencer of Missouri, and former Secretary of State Colbrar. "Tuder all circumstances," DE scott said in his letter to Congressman Madden. "it must be clearly evident that a grave injustice has been done these French colonial troops, who fought so bravely against the Teutonic enemies during the world conflict. Their services were then regarded at face value. They helped to save the precious jewel of liberty for all the world. They proved to be troops not afraid of Germany's best and most seasoned veterans. It seems particularly malign under the circumstances not to have the courage to take up the above statements, which correct the very unfair—to use no more vigorous language—propaganda which has been circulated against them in this country. I refer to the matter as a colored American, because propaganda reflections of the same character were quite generally circulated about colored American troops who served in France. The libels in that case were finally and effectively disposed of, as they have been in the case mentioned above." Congressman Madden has again won the wholesouled approval of colored Americans for his courageous action in combating prejudice against our colored troops. His remarks have been reprinted in panphiet form and are being very widely distributed. Included in the correspondence which Congressman Madden wishes made a part of the Congressional Record Is a letter from Congressman Madden to Sussemino the United States in which he cites a German lady who says that the accusations against the Negro troops in occupied German territory are entirely false and mendacious. This letter reads as follows: Ambassade De La Republic France Aux Etats-Unis Washington, le January 10, 1921 Dear Sir, Answering your letter of the 6th I beg to say that the allegations constantly and persistently spread by German propaganda against our colored troops are absolutely unfounded; their behavior did not justify in the least the scurrilous accusations freely launched against them in sheets sent here from Germany, ready printed and in enormous quantities for distribution all over the country. There were some few cases of misbehavior, not more than with any other kind of troops, and in each case the guilty party was sent before the military judge and severely punished In spite of all efforts truth will come out and you may find a proof thereof in the New York Times of yesterday, Sunday, where in section 2, page 10, appears a letter from a German lady, living in that region, and who openly declares that those accusations are entirely false and mendacious. Believe me, dear sir. Congressman Madden also had presented 'other correspondence in which it was shown that although French colonial troops spent equivalent of 10,500,000 days in Germany there were but 227 complaints against them, of which 72 were maintained, 96 doubtful and 59 unfounded. The 72 proved cases resulted in 1 imprisonment for life, 7 suspended sentences, 28 imprisonments, 23 subjection to military discipline, and the dropping of 13 cases. Nine cases of attacks on women were established, according to the announcement. a ee = pag 2 CHO medic tandetid ae atceue aT Tae PRET: BEEP TL EE ei es ee TI TTP Ae EF AR Ae dike oe Oa ee ame ae ee pee eee” Sih ae Tivo TT ee HE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY” MAVTE Tog Trew i Hae che ee op, ee : ‘<a " mteetth there kek to a 3 Sd akte tae, AGE aR Gar aan lah a ce pee SS TC MT SCE AT nnn t set to Jenin. of thly Hing vec her a] NOTICE OF StOOL BOND — [Shitty edtoof.! are ails Te chil-| Femme Se a ln . speedy recovery. * ELECTION Aren 500, sek mh re . he. i 1 WN N 3 , The Tes, NE Erarktin yor ere Notice is hereby given by the Roara a EiSgonay Ateernoon excur- 2 alee A nnday mizht té Join bis wife who is ‘ ston to Dautuskiesby the Eariy Idstuz =; Se A, ye “Sar = ph, & .

In speaking of the foreign work Dr. Rankin said: "To sustain and keep our foreign work alive has been one of our greatest tasks. We have had to strain every energy to meet the demand of this work' since the general conference in St. Louis last May. There were at least sixteen missionaries, here last general conference all of whom had to be taken care of while here, and their expenses of travel borne by this department. "We, however, have been able to not only maintain our former standing in the foreign field, but we have been able to extend the work. We have sent with Bishop Brooks, fire missionaries—spendid, well prepared young people, for work in West Africa. "The work of both the Woman's Parent Mite Missionary Society and the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society have been commended. Both of these societies have largely increased interest in the missionary work of our church, to the extent that we have been encouraged when we otherwise would have become discouraged."

AUNT KATHERINE ORDERED TO SEEK HABITABLE RESIDENCE New Orleans, La., May 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Declarating that she had lived for the past nine years in a cavern in a large pile of junk, "Aunt Katherine" Washington, a colored woman of uncertain age, set up a violent disclaimer when ordered by the city health authorities to seek a more habitable residence. According to the health authorities, the woman has been living in a small cavity created in the junk pile by the removal of various pieces of the junk, covered only with small bits of tin and wood and lined with rags and bits of carpets. When not in use the place was harricked with the top of an old tish wash boiler. Her cooking was all done over an open fire on the ground. Of a stylogan blackness, with long, yet kinky hair, streaming about her wrinkled face, "Aunt Katherine" presented a remarkable sight to the eyes of the health officers as she came scrambling out of her cave with the agility of a monkey. She wore a skirt of gummy sacking and a man's coat adorned with bits of twisted brass braid, ribbons and the five spot of clubs plinned on with a safety pin as a "protection against hoofs." She says she is not certain of her age, but "remembers being born" in Boston, brought south by the "nigger traders" and belonging to the "Sandy Hamilton of Lyons county, Miss., and no better white folkes ever put shoes on themselves." She admits one relative, a son, whom she said was "somewhere in the world, describing him as a "growned up young man, born in '67". In her youth, "Aunt Katherine" says she was "up to all manners of devilment," playing the fiddle and dancing. "But God's done called me from the hallroom floor," she explained, adding: "I wouldn't dance, no more, 'cept it was in some place like Chicago, where I was unbeknownst."

The stage is all set for the fast 12 rounds boxing contest on Wednesday night at Lynharen Park. Williams and Williams two swift ones in the game will face each other in what is expected to be one of the best fight- pulled off here between Negro boxers in some time. Both men are well known in Savannah and where they have been seen in action on several occasions and will give the fans the full value of the price of admission. Kid Williams who is for- merly of this city is now fighting miser the name of Knockout Lew Williams of Brooklyn, N. Y. Barbershop Williams, balls from Brunswick, Ga. and has been meeting all comers. There will also be two fast 6 round preliminaries between George Dixon and Young Brown and Tiger Moore and Kid Derby in the semi-final. Tiger Moore will later meet the winner of the main bout. The management of the park has made arrangements to accommodate a large crowd and everything will be in readiness for the starting of the bout at 10 o'clock. The prices will be 50 cents $1.00 and $1.50. LET'S HAVE A BALL PARK THE SAVANNah base ball club of the colored Southeastern Atlantic League has been handicapped on account of not having a park in which to play its scheduled games. The games between Atlanta and Montgomery teams had to be called off on the above account. At the beginning of the season the team used the Georgia State College diamond, but the distance from the city to the college assisted the abandonment of that diamond. It is understood, however, that the management has secured the use of alot at Bay and Lathrop avenue in the western section of the city and is now working on a plan for its enclosure. Savannah should have a park and every layer of the sport should assist the management in some way in fencing in the lot. The place in question is the property of the Central railroad and it is through the kindness of those who have the property in charge that the management of the team has been given the privilege of the use of the ground. Let's have a ball park. Friday, May 20, will mark the annual field day of Ga. State College. The track features to take place will be very interesting and will be participated in by both male and female teams. The public is invited. The following is the program to be tendered at 2 p.m. 50 yard dash-Girls 50 yard dash-Small boys 100 yard dash-Young men Potato race-Girls 3 leg race-Small boys High jump-Young men Relay race-Girls Obstacle race-Small boys Broad jump-Young men Bag 14.4-Girls Pole vaulting-Young men High jump-Small boys Tag of war-Girls Mask race-Young men Relay race-Small boys Stride ball-Girls Hurdle (low)-Young men Rolling race-Small boys Relay race-Young men Volley ball-Girls Hand walking-Young men Ball throwing-Girls L.

JACK DEMPSEY LOOKING FOR TRAINING PARTNER New York, N. Y. May 11th (Associated Negro Press)—It is sold 2,000, 100 men are out of work in this country, yet several good jobs are going begging. Jack Dempsey is finding it difficult to secure hired hands for his training quarters which he will presently pitch in Atlantic City by the sea waves. It's a funny thing about some of our big fighters. They claim they can kill Dempsey, but when they are offered the opportunity of doing it every day, they say off. Dempsey does not ask them to "pull" when they are training with him. He puts them under no bonds to keep the peace. He is willing to have them tear into him, biff, bang and there is nothing to prevent them from knocking him out if they cut. Thus it would appear to be a great opportunity for a man to make a quick reputation, but is there any great rush to the doors of opportunity? There I not! When Dempsey was training for Jess Willard, his manager, Jack Kernus, went to Harry Wills, this Negro heavy, and offered him $5,000 to work with the present champion. Wills declined the offer. This was probably more money that Wills received from his average lattie. He does not appear often in the ring and much is said of his inability to secure matches. At Wills would not work with Dempsey, and his reason was that he thought he could whip either Dempsey or Willard. Perhaps he could. But it seems strange he did not jump at the opportunity of proving it. Training equiv courtesy may demand that so training partner must not "show up" the man he is working with, but where the man is a defiant champion who has no object to being shown up. It would appear to be great sport for a contender. Kid Norfolk, another Negro fighter, who claims a title, has declined to asst Dempsey in preparing for Carpenter. Norfolk's reason is said to be that he thinks he can whip Dempsey. He says he will work with Jack if the champion will guarantee him a title match later on. Norfolk does not need 'such a guarantee from Dempsey. If he can go into Dempsey's training quarter and display superbity over the champion, nothing could keep him out of a title fight. Furthermore, the man who tilted Dempsey would assuredly be a great card, title or no title. Norfolk claims the Negro heavy-weight champion, and bears a belt to that effect. He is a pretty cool fighter and would be very valuable to Dempsey. He is fast and crafty. Harry Gribb, the Pittsburgh windmill, is said to have refused an offer to join Dempsey. Gribb has often expressed a desire to fight Jack and it would seem that the training quarters would furnish him the opportunity to display his worthiness for a bout with the champion. Every big man in the business will be asked to Atlantis City for a remuneration while the champion is getting ready BRUNSWICK NINE DEVILS DEFEAT EFERN DEFEAT, FERNANDINA Geo. Wells, manager of the Nine Devils base ball team made a business trip to Savannah last week. In the interest of his club, Mgr.

ELKS CARD TEAM VERSUS IMPERIAL The card teams of Weldon Lodge of Elks and the Imperial club met on Thursday night at the Imperial club rooms, in a limited number of games of "live up" for the bridege cup which is being played for by several organizations of the city. The cup was recently won by the Imperial teams from the Fox club and on Thursday night the champions were called upon to defend their title. The games played by both teams were very hard and caused a great deal of comment from those witnessing the plays. The match finally ended by the Imperial defeating the Elks, score G1 to 52.

NEGROES ORGAN IZE TO FIGHT KU KLUX KLAN Knights of the Kersoine Kan, is Name Used NEITHER HEADS NOR TALE OF MYSTERIOUS NEW ORGANIZATION CAN BE LOCATED Somewhere in The South, May 11th (Associated Negro Press)—"Fighting Fire With Fire" certain groups of Negroes in various sections of the South have formed an underground drastic organization that is throwing actual terror into the hearts of the members of the nefarious Klu Klux Klan. The name of this mysterious but certainly effective organization is the Knights of the Kerosene Kan. The word has gone out and has reached the places where words count most, that for every Negro terrorized or unjustly put to death, there shall be a demonstration in fireworks in the community theragabout. So mysteriously are the workings of this invisible body that neither heads nor tail of it can be located, and yet it is known that where certain perceptions of terror have been carried on, there has simultaneously occurred, mysterious fires that have lighted up the country for miles around. In the southern city, well known throut the nation, where "the Klux sought to terrorize the community because of the mere alleged attack of a Negro upon a white woman, and the Klux called" for "all red blooded PRO All burial problems are met by We have the praise that is be- by a polite effort to satisfy th our clients.

Washington, D. C., May 11th (Associated Negro Press)—Color prejudice ramifications in Washington afford a startling and sickening study. Governmental departments are honey combed with petty, insensible and un-American hold faced discriminations—albeit, there are occasions where it is sought to cove up the real menace with ostrich like camouflage. Revealing these conditions, The Associated Negro Press feels that a public duty is being performed, in as much as there is universal hope that many of the conditions will be corrected under the new administration. Washington, as the nation's capital, should set the example for the rest of the country in American principles. The Southern idea of "dealing with the Negro" has had an eight year sway, and the most has been made of the time. These practices have been so effective that there is not a single theatre in Washington where colored people mayga, except for those conducted exclusively for the race, or where persons who can "pass" run the gambitlet. The same brand of prejudice is nation-wide in egalitiveness, for the city is made up with people from everywhere who not only write back home, but who go back from time to time telling the folks "how we treat 'em in D. C." It's a fine little game of "black man." The keystone of governmental discrimination is the Civil Service department. They have worked the scheme out there to a "frack-sklin" as they say in Indiana—meaning the "unimpeachable" part of a fraction. It starts with the examinations, where it has been demonstrated that the lowest possible grades are given colored applicants, especially in spelling and writing. And yet, the records bear witness that even with handicaps, colored applicants make a higher average than the majority of whites. The nefarious Wilson executive order system of compelling applicants to be photographed, is another part of the program which is wholly out of harming with civil service ideas, and should be abolished. Notwithstanding this prima facie method, hundred of applicants are certified for various positions, only to find when they put in an appearance that, "the place has just been filled." During war times there were large numbers of pathetic instances where both men and women came to the city from long distances, only to find the door closed in their faces. Each of the various bureaus have what is known as a "Chief clerk" and an "appointment clerk." These are the goats, and are the ones who do the dirty work in the matter of appointments, but it could not be carried on successfully without the endorsement of the "man on top." Take a specific case in point that happened recently in the department of Commerce, under the Secretary Hoover. It is stated that a young colored man was sent personally by the Secretary to the appointment clerk with the instructions that he be placed, he having been certified by the Civil Service. The automatic appointment clerk informed the young man that "There is a clerkship, but you would have to work among whites, and the best I can do now is place you on as a messenger." Can you beat that for nerve? There are hundreds of cases like it. There are hundreds of persons in Washington departments who are capable of being chief; who frequently have more ability than their so-called chiefs, and are called upon to perform his duties, and yet they are not permitted to advance. There are scores of messengers, college graduates, who are hanging on with the hope that time will some day give them a chance to measure up. Young women are compelled to battle with equal force and determination for an opportunity to work for the government, except many of them have the additional battle for their character, in a manner very much in keeping with certain regional ethics. Shall colored Americans, who are anxious to serve the country in the Federalized Guard be received on the same basis as others, or shall they all be compelled to epilisty under the order which permits only certain military privileges. The recent 'exposition on this subject is creating wide comment. Citizens throut the country are urged to write Secretary of War Weeks of the War Department, Washington, D. C., and urge the repeal of an order which is unfair to American manhood. The Associated Negro Press has tak on the matter up directly with the Secretary of War, and a formal expression on the subject is expected in a short time. It has been pointed out to the Secretary that under the present arrangement real blooded men present the plan as un-American, regardless of the very clandestine statement on the subject by former Secretary Baker, who stated that it was without prejudice. "Can Discrimination be without prejudice?" asks the "Man Furthest Down." Secretary Denby, of the Department of the Navy, a citizen of Michigan, where the Republican party was born for the cause of human liberty and justice, together with his worthy asistant, Theodore Roosevelt, of New York, son of the architect of the "Door of Hope—the Door of Opportunity"—those men should take the unwritten law of color prejudice out of the government that has very effectively placed the "kiboosh" on colored Americans. the Navy Department, reflect very unmistakably the "spirit of the Navy." Colored clerks, and even messengers, are conspicuous by their absence. It is pointed out by observers that to make headway in social justice Departmental heads "must take an unquestioned stand for the things that are right. The spirit of their stance should permeate every corner and service of the work under them, just as the spirit of injustice permeated to the last inch under the last Wilsonian regime. It is further pointed out that the example of the government. It attitude in dealing with human beings will-go a very long way in helping to develop a just and fair attitude of many in every section of the United States, and in all phases of economic life. Governmental example, backed up by constitutional governmental determination, will prove an unfaltering panacea for many "lifts."

Stanley, Georgia Commissoor of Labor. The general labor situation has improved since the first of this year, Mr. Stanley had, but some sections of the state report a super-abundance of unskilled labor," at this time. Statistics compiled on January 1 showed 50 per cent reduction in employment from January, 1920 to January, 1921, in cotton mills and fertilizer factories, with 32,000 railroad ship and track men idle." Mr. Stanley stated that since that time the strike on the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic Railroad has added several hundred more railroad men to those idle. DOCTORS TO MEET HERE NEXT YEAR Dr. W. A.

Motorizing across country is usually sport of the most enjoyable kind, but some times its quite strenuous. We don't know in which category the four physicians who left here this week for Angusta, will place their trip, but we rather surmise they are somewhat not overjoyed with rural touring since their harrowing experiences last Tues- day night on the road. It seems that everything went well CARTER'S LITTLE RIVER PILLS with them until they got within about twenty miles of Augusta. There they ran into a blinding hail storm and had to pull over to the roadside for a few hours. While waiting for the storm to pass over they discovered that they had a puncture. All of them under- to change the fire and assume smoking wet, and the storm would not let up any they decided to stay where they were until morning. Not seeing any colored people near where they were went to a white farmer who allowed them to stop over in his burn. There they dried as best they could their water-dried clothing. Next morning they went out to continue their journey to Augusta and found that some one had received their tar of its battery. After looking around for some houses a farmer came upon, then she told them he had a battery which they might buy. This they did and they continued on their journey only to have further trouble in the convention city when a certain important part of their car decided it was tired working and runned a foot. This, however, was the last heard of their trouble and we rather support they'll freeze back home to day without any further road annoyances.
