VOL. XXXVI Action Against Discrimination Demanded YOUNG WOMAN FAILS TO GET POSITION IN POST OFFICE DE PARTMENT BECAUSE OF COLOR Washington, D. C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—"More Business in Politics; More Politics in Business," is the new slogan of the day. Letters are pouring into heads of departments, Senators, Congressmen and pilots of newspapers these days commenting on steps being taken in behalf of justice for all American citizens; and an equal number of protests are coming in demanding action against segregation and discrimination. The Associated Negro Press exposure of conditions has created a stir that is bringing direct results. Care, in the extreme, has been taken not to saddle present conditions on the Harding administration. It has been pointed out that the terrible state of affairs is a legacy of the discountenanced Wilson regime. However, Republicanans are cautioned to "beware the Ideas of March," for the reason that discovery has been made that some appointees are slipping in who are seared to the soul with the segregated notions of American citizenship. In a story a short time ago, it was stated that certain conditions had been discovered in one of the cabint departments. The matter was taken up by correspondences with the member of the cabinet, and it has been amazingly discovered that the member of the cabinet has never been permitted to see the communication. His secretary, who is a southerner, has kept the information from him. This secretary, when informed of certain conditions by The Associated Negro Press said that it was a matter for the department to handle within, and THREE BF WF YXL not the newspapers and outside public. He was told that there still exists in that department certain segregation conditions, and this secretary stated that he could not see why there should be any objection! While the matter is being further thashed out, the name of the particular department is not given. Postmaster General Acts. A. A. flagrant case is that of Miss Zelma A. Robinson, a young woman who was certified for a position in the Postoffice Department. At the time she was in Philadelphia, and was telegraphed. She came immediately to Washington and reported for duty. When she reported she was told, in the same old way, that the place had been filled. Returning to the Commission, she was told that there were at least twenty-five places that had not been filled. The matter was taken up with the committee on Legislative Relief, and Mrs. M. L. Grey and a group of women. They in turn took the subject up direct with Postmaster General Hays. He stated that he had heard of certain discrimination in the department, but had not had an opportunity to go at the bottom. But, he assured the Committee, there must be no discrimination in Post Office Civil Service. He personally investigated Miss Robinson's case, and she was reassigned to the place that had been billed, and is now working. SEN. COMMITTEE BALK AT LINNEY Washington, D. C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—The Senate Judiciary Committee balked at the confirmation of Frank A. Linney as United States Attorney for the Western district of North Carolina. Linney, who is a republican politician of prominence in North Carolina and state chairman, is accused of having tried to keep Negroes from voting The Judiciary Committee at one stage of its proceedings practically rejected Linney, but decided at the request of Senator Overman, of North Carolina, one of the Democratic leaders, not to close the case and to give Linney a hearing. The committee was first apprised of the allegations that Linney exerted his influence and efforts against the voting of Negroes, by Bishop G. W. Clinton, a colored Bishop of North Carolina.

C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press). Secretary of War Weeks has let it be known that any state may include colored Americans in the Federalized National Guard, in such proportions as they may determine, on an absolute basis of fairness. This information the Secretary gave Attorney W. Clarence Matthews of Boston, in an interview at the War Department. It repudiates the order issued by former Secretary of War Baker, which has caused nationwide criticism, and which has prevented colored Americans from enlisting in National Guards except as "pioneer" or labor organizations. The Associated Negro Press recently carried an extensive story on this subject, which was laid personally before the Secretary of War, Vice President Coolidge, and others. Vice President Coolidge took a personal interest in the subject, for as Governor of Massachusetts National Guard in the regular state quota, in a manner in keeping with the traditions of the state. At that time Mr. Coolidge proceeded to organize anyway, and declared that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts would stand behind the organization until a change of administration. At the time of making this statement, Mr. Coolidge was not a candidate for any office. Recently, Mr. Matthews, who was formerly assistant District Attorney in Boston, in company with a representative of the Associated Negro Press, took the subject up with the Vice President, and Mr. Matthews reminded the Vice President of his remarks. The Vice President, true to his promise, took the matter up immediately with the Secretary of War. This decision by Secretary Weeks, statement on the subject, permits Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, Illinois and the District of Columbia, Guards for many years to organize colored units, to organize on abasis in keeping with principle and justice. Senator Caraway of Arkansas has introduced a bill to exclude all Negro citizens from the Army and Navy, stated that his bill will not get out of the Committee, but serves to show the spirit with which the race, and other real Americans, must contend. ATLANTA Y. M. C. A. ANNIVERSARY ATLANTA Y. M. C. A. ANNIVERSARY Atlanta, Ga., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—In spite of the inclement weather Sunday there was a large attendance at the celebration of the first anniversary of the colored branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, which was held in the gymnasium of the association building on Butler street. Along the speakers of the occasion were Attorney Philip Welner, Dr. H. R. Butler and Dr. H. P. Johnson, President of the Evangelical Ministers' Union. Mr. Welner made a strong appeal to those present to rally to the work and complete it so that a bigger and more far-reaching program could be carried on. Dr. Butler gave an interesting history of the early struggles of the branch. Dr. Johnson delivered a memorial address, calling upon the fathers and mothers to train their children in the ways of righteousness and truth. Reports were received from officers and committees, showing the progress of work, and music was furnished by Pythian band. President J B. Watson presided. far west and considerable helpful publicity in defense of the Negro's industrial and economic rights by means of editorials and articles in the daily and weekly press. The Committee appointed a Program Committee for the Annual Conference of the National Urban League to be held October 19th to 22nd in Chicago. BOMBING GOING ON IN CHICAGO The Bombing Apparently is Still Going On Chicago, Ill. May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Since May 20, 1018, bombs have been exploded in, beside or above thirty-three-Chicago buildings occupied by Negroes and in eight other buildings occupied by white persons who were believed to have sold or rented structures to colored persons. The bombing apparently is still going on, the last bomb having been hurled on May 6. Three weeks ago Julius Taylor, editor of the Broad Ax, made a public appeal to "the big five"—as he calls them—to urge Mayor William Hale Thompson to stop the explosions "The big five" are Negroes holding public office under the Thompson-Lundn organization as follows: Edward H. Wright, committeeman of the Second ward, who as a special truction lawyer for the city has collected more than $30,000. Oscar DePriest, who is a condemnation commissioner on a street improvement at a compensation of $10,000. "Now in the name of all the gods at once we again humbly implore you," says Taylor in his paper to "the big five" to call upon Mayor William Hale Thompson and urge him to a bold step forward and honestly endeavor to end the reign of terror. Alderman Anderson and Jackson have presented a resolution to the city council directing the finance committee to make an appropriation of $25,000 to be expended by the police chief "in a thorough investigation of the crime of bombing throughout the city of Chicago." This made no reference to the bombing of flats of Negroes and was broad enough to cover the bomb throwing and three murders in the Nineteenth ward since the aldermanic election February 22. The resolution did say, however, that "the apparent case with which the culprits have been able to execute TWO their criminal acts without detection or comprehension has caused them to feel a certain sense of security." But the two aldermen allied with the city administration—Anderson being looked upon as floor leader in the council—excused the police department by asserting it is "hampered by lack of funds." HAITIAN REP. IS- SUE STATEMENT New York, N. Y., May 25th (Associated Negro-Press)—Dierre Eugene de Lespainse, a member of the General Committee of the Patriotic Union who has just arrived in New York City from Haiti, has issued a statement in which he urged prompt action for the regeneration of his country if its rule was not to be made complete by the American occupation: "For the first time in 116 years," said M. Pirree Eugene de Lesphasse, Haiti, during the last five years of American occupation has defaulted on its interior debt. This debt is held by Haitian people, for the most part who have suffered severe hardship because of their income, and those who gave credit to the Haitian Government by purchasing its obligations are being ruined. "If Americans wish to do something for Hall, it is necessary to hasten. Human powers have their limits. Indians have endured for six years. I do not know how long they can continue to endure. Their country has been derasted by recentevents. They are living in a state of destroying insecurity. There is no work to be done. Common people are miserable and under-fed, and upwards of 100,000 of them have migrated to Cuba. "The first remedy required is financial. If was a crime against the economic strength of the country to fix the value of the national currency, the gourd at twenty cents for a gourd, when in the last 25 years the gourd had been worth a dollar and was several times at a premium over the dollar. "The military devastation that has taken place in Haiti in the last five years can be repaired. It will be more difficult to make reparation for the economic crimes which are killing the country in putting it at a disadvantage with other countries. These are" the 1921 BIRTH OF A NA- TION FILM STOPP- ED IN BOSTON Prevented From Show- ing By Mayor Peters D. R. WILSON OF N. A. A. C. P. ACT. ED AS ATTORNEY FOR PROTESTANTS AGAINST FILM D. R. WILSON OF N. A. A. C. P. ACT The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today published a statement giving in detail the events leading up to the prevention by Mayor Peters of Boston of the showing of David W. Griffins' film, "The Birth of a Nation." On May 16, the day on which the picture was to have been shown, Mayor Peters suspended the license of the Shubert Theatre, acting upon the recommendation of the Board of Censors which had received protests from the Boston Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Butler R. Wilson, secretary of the Boston Branch, N. A. A. C. P., acted as attorney for the Protestants against the film, among whom were a colored post of the American Legion, the Knights of Columbus; the Colored Veterans of All Wars; the National Colored Pythian Organization; The National Equal Rights League; William H. Lewis; Rev. M. A. M. Shaw of the Twelfth Baptist church; Rev Walter D. McLean, and others. The protest submitted to the Mayor of Boston by Mr. Wilson for the N. A. A. C. asked that the showing of the "Birth of a Nation" be prevented: 1. Because it is a malicious misrepresentation of the colored people, depicting them as moral perversity. 2. Because it glorifies the most abominable crime of the dynching of men, women and children by irresponsible mobs. 3. Because it arouses sharp race antagonisms that embitter citizens against each other. 4. Because it tends to a breach of the public peace. As a consequence of the protest, a hearing was held on the very day on which the film was to be shown. After the hearing and the protest the theatre license was suspended that very day, and it became impossible to show the picture in Boston. The fight made against the "Birth of a Nation" in New York City by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People did not succeed as in Boston, because in New York there are no censors with the authority conferred on those in Boston. The Mayor and Police Commissioner, of whom protests were carried, declared their lack of legal authority to interfere with the showing. NOT IN SYMPATHY WITH KU KLUXS Chicago, Ill., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—The growth of the Ku Klux Klan among Americans North who are not in sympathy with many of its secret aims a they affect Jew, Catholics and colored people is attracting attention. They are said to be working assiduously among members of the American Legion and to have obtained many converts. It is thought that many Legionaries who have joined have been camouflaged by its so called American principles. Major Reed Landis, famus Aviation ace and son of Judge Kenesaw M. Landis said recently that the selection of Simmons to head the Knights of the Air was due only to his ability as an organizer, and that he would have no part in any movement directed against creed or color. The denial of Gen. Pershing and others that they are identified shows the length to which the so called Klan will go to secure public approbation. REAL ESTATE OPERATOR SHOT New York, N. Y. May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Hymann Manoson, 60, real estate operator wealthy uplitter of Negroes was shot and killed in First Tuesday night in the hallway of his home, 115 W.

SCHOOL TEACHER DIES SUDDENLY Miss Alice B. Miller Had Taught In Local Schools 45 Years Miss Alice B. Miller who for the past forty-five years has been teaching at the West Broad street school, died suddenly Wednesday night about 12:30 o'clock. Her death was a severe shock to her many friends as it was not known that her condition was in the least alarming. Wednesday, as usual, she conducted her class room work and retired that night. About midnight Mrs. Sarah J. Butler, at whose residence she had been living since the death of Mr J. H C. Butler about six weeks ago, was aled by the severe coughing of Miss Miller. She attempted to give her some relief and then called a physician, but before he arrived she passed away. Miss Miller who was born in Rome, Ga., came to this city from Atlanta University in October 1876, entering the public school system at the West Broad street school where she taught continuously until the day of her death. Her death coming so soon after that of her principal, Prof Butler, who had served in the public school system for 48 years, is rather singular. Miss Miller was a member of the First Congregational church and in her younger days was one of its most active members. Her funeral was held yesterday afternoon-5 o'clock from the residence of Mrs. Sarah J. Butler, 515 West Henry street, and was attended by many friends and acquaintances. The services were conducted by the Rev. Arnold E. Gregory of the First Congregational church. Interment was at Laurel Grove cemetery. She is survived by four nieces, Mrs. Viola J. Hill and Mrs.; Daisy Epps, both of Atlanta, the former-attending and Miss Hattie Hegginbotham both and Miss Hattie Higginbotham both of Boston, Mass., a nephew, Homer Redding of Oklahoma; and a life long friend, Mrs. Saria J Butler of this city. Mrs. Clara M. Cater and Dr. L. H. Hill of Atlanta attended the funeral. MOVIE NEWS.OF NEGRO PEOPLE Negroes of Country Should Get Behind This Noble and-Worthy Endeavor Washington, D. C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press) The June release of the Monumental News the colored news reel picturizing the activities of the Negro race of the World and, produced by the Monumental Pictures Corporation, of which J. Williams Clifford is the President and General Manager, is most interesting. Indeed Among the many entertaining and educational scenes are to be found views of prominent Negro political leaders, men and women being received at the White House, Negro children in a May Festival in Baltimore, Maryland, President Harding's famous colored cook, and the New York Giants baseball team in desperate competition with the crack colored team of Atlanta, Ga. This is the second news release produced by the Monumental Pictures Corporation and it is meeting with tremendous success in all parts of the country. These news reels have inspirational and educational value and the colored theatre goers of the country demand that they be shown in the theatres that they attend. Mr. Clifford said that it is his intention to have Monumental colored papers showing how ridiculous and superficial is the white man's prejudice against the American Negro. It seems to be the consensus of opinion that the Negroes of the country should get behind this noble and worthy endeavor of the Monumental Pictures Corporation and make the Monumental Pictures Corporation News an American Institution thus using the powerful medium of motion pictures to bring the Negroes closer together giving them that feeling of racial consciousness so necessary to their larger influence in the affairs of the nation NINE RESCURED BY POLICEMAN Los Angeles, Calif., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Philip Bomar, a colored policeman, smashed the door of a burning dwelling in the Boyle Helghts section early Thursday morning and rescued nine occupants. Number 32 Mr. Howard Is A Leader In Mississippi APPOINTMENT IS SPECIAL RECOGNITION OF THE RACE BY HARDING ADMINISTRATION Washington, D. C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Perry W. Howard, of Jackson, Miss. has been appointed by Attorney General Harry N. Daugherty as Special Assistant Attorney General of the United States. Attorney Howard is in the claims division of the Department of Justice, and has charge of fraudulent claims against the government. The salary is $5,000 a year. The appointment of Mr. Howard is not only special recognition of the race, but is direct recognition by the Harding Administration of the leadership of Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Atlanta, Republican National Committeeman from Georgia; Robert R. Church, of Memphis, Tenn., and Charles A. Cottrill of Toledo, Ohio, who were in direct charge of the campaign work among voters during the last election. These men are heading up the committee on Legislative Relief, 1216 Pennsylvania avenue, and are demonstrating not only ability in pushing legislation but ability in progressive political maneuvering. Two of them Johnson and Church have let it be known distinctly that they do not seek appointments for themselves, but they are insisting on the Republican party keeping campaign plodges, and recognizing citizens on merit in appointments. Mr. Howard is forty-three years old, is married and has two sons. He is a graduate of Rust' College, Holly Springs, Miss, took special-work at Fisk University, and the University of Chicago, and is a graduate of the Illinois College of Law.

Bruce for the United States Senate.

Mr. Hownrd has entered upon his duties in the building of the Department of Justice, and is receiving congratulations from every section of the country. That the race has been recognized thus early in the important Department of Justice by the new Administration, is regarded as indicative of being fair to all citizens. In the fast campaign Mr. Howard was Secretary in charge of the Western Division of colored voters, Chicago. N.C. PAPER ON RACE ISSUES N.C. PAPER ON RACE ISSUES Shelby, N. C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—The News of last Friday has the following to say, editorially, about "Our Colored Brothers:" "We wish to make clear our attitude toward the colored race in America. While we desire to be classed as a foe of undesirable foreign immigration, yet we would as strongly oppose persecution or mistreatment either of our foreigners or of non-white elements in our population. "It is especially true of our attitude toward our fellow-Americans of African descent. In fact, we believe the Negroes of America are less of a menace to the white blood than are the hordes of so-called white foreigners who migrate to our shores from such countries as Portugal, Southern Italy, Southeastern Europe and Eastern Russia. Their is fatal tendency to absorb these stocks, to the consequent lowering of American standards of civilization and degeneracy of the blood-stocks."

Masonry, like the temple which stood on Mount Morjah, is a stately temple of more than one facade, of many angles, pinnacles and towers. Like the varied and beautiful landscape of that eastern country where it had its birth, there are many and changing views to please the eye and instruct in the mind. And here we might linger in some beautiful valley until the flowers fade at our side, but after all, it is only a narrow valley shut from the world outside. By toll and perseverance we may scale some lofty peak that lifts its head far above the valley below, and there we may have a broad view of the whole land. In illustration of this fact I would call your attention to a truly poetical so we found in the Book of Numbers. When the hosts of Israel encamped in the land of Moab, Balak, the king of that land, sent for a seer named Balaam, who dwelt by the river of Babylon, to come and curse Israel. But when Balaam looked down upon the host of Israel, it presented a goodly spectacle, and he altogether blessed and cursed not. So from every vantage of vision whence we may velw Feemasons on the plane of life we find they present a goodly spectacle. But what is the combined and composite spectacle they present in thought and stand apart to you and me, if we detach our selves and view our brothers?—R. H. Harper. REPEAT AFTER ME. Many votaries of Masonry have wondered at the constant repetition in the work—of things done or said. Why should the same questions be asked again and again. The very fact that certain things are thus emphasized should put us upon the track, that there is one of the secret springs to open the door to the Treasurer-House. Having made a declaration of his accord, the same thing is sounded and resounded in his ears, as though to afford him every opportunity in the world to recant, and that falling to do so, that he must live up to his declared desires, or become perjured be- SUMMER SCHOOL THE COLLEGE Summer School of Morchouse College for four weeks until July 12th.

MADAM FREEMAN'S BEAUTY PARLOB 456 1-2 Montgomery St. Phone 3648-W Call and see me SAVANNAH, GA Sanders EXPERT SHOE REPAIR Best Materials used with Madam If anyone does not realize the importance of the Negro vote last Tuesday, let him deduct the Negro vote cast "for" bonds and then see how feeble the showing for support of the Board of Education and progress the count would have appeared. A possible 3,500 "for bonds". And if one wishes to realize the tremendous influence of all women, black and white, let him deduct the totla vote of white and Negro women, about 3,400, and see what would be left "for bonds". About 1,900. Now those who would place restriction upon women, or subject them to same rigid requirements made upon male voters, would mainly have Negro women as their objective. They will reason, and justly so, that as soon as it is required of women to pay poll tax the same as men, the colored women will soon lose interest and diminish like Negro men. They have also reasoned, and more have expressed, that Negro women will sooner get tired and lose general interest in politics than other women; that as soon as they find that they are to hold no offices, for a long time yet, that colored women will lose their zest for politics and quilt. But we do not think so. Our experience with our women is that they have as much pluck as the few colored men who have hung on and "carried on" through the years for a share in the government under which we live. We believe a canvass for renewed and increased registration among colored women right now will result in many Negro women qualifying. There is a keen interest among those who voted and those whose names were omitted from the rolls are anxious to straighten themselves. Let's put several thousand more men and women on the books there, and at once, so as to represent a real power in any subsequent election for, after all, it is power you represent that gets you what you wish and what you are entitled to. Our warning is, that we will need all the power of this kind we can summon and poll, to defend ourselves against the efforts, the renewed efforts, to disfranchise both our women and our men. Mr. Editor: - Please allow, me to call attention to a few things that we are doing in our churches that are not pleasing to the Almighty God. Christ says He must be lifted up. He further says the house of God should not be a house of merchandise, yet we have allowed ourselves to give what we call old folks concert, with women dressed in men's costumes and allowed fairs to be given in our churches. Such things as these are displeasing to our Maker. It is time to stop such things in our churches we know its wrong. It may be said we give such to help carry on the expense of the church. The churches belong to God and He has other ways by which to support them. Never did and never will God need such money to carry on His cause. Let us back up the truth. We should take a strong stand for the house of God than anything on earth. We are asking God for more wisdom; what are we doing with that He has already given us? Negro Wonen Worked Hard To Carry Election Tuesday Regrets on every side are expressed on account of the defeat of the school bonds in the election held Tuesday last. This was not the fault of the colored voters and workers. Early Tuesday morning the workers reported for duty and at the Academy assignments were made. All doing the day the organization worked perfectly, everybody having foremost in mind the success of the election. The women worked like trojians and veterans. The heads of each committee were constantly on the job and each worker was tireless. There was enough glory and work, in it for everybody and right well did they do their part. Out of 11,470 registered voters, 0.159 THE ASSOCIATION FIRST IN SERVICE DYING IN HARNESS The sudden death of Miss Alice B. Miller, veteran teacher of the Savannah schools, in the city this week, marks the passing of another of the strongest forces for education and uplift among the colored people in this city. Along with Professor J. H C. Butler who died little more than a month ago Miss Miller was one of the pioneers of education among our people in this city and this section. She had come here at a time when education was young among our people, when few had the chance and few were the opportunities open to those who had that chance. She had served through those "sterner years" when there was little or no interest in Negro education; when the teacher because of her wider opportunity exhibited more interest in the child's training and improvement than the parent even. She came when the teacher was the shining mark in the community, the mentor, guide, advisor, example, friend, helper. Miss Miller was a most excellent example of the true teacher, possessing all the qualities of manner, character and splendid fitness for her worthy work. She was by nature specially adapted for teaching or had grown so in the long years, nearly half a century, during which she served. She was a strong Christian woman, and practised what she taught her pupils was the proper-life to live. Miss Miller was intensely interested in the public civic and charitable affairs of the community; kept in close and active touch with every public movement and every enterprise that had for its object the development of her people and the advancement of their enterprise, as well as the good of the community. She was a woman of strong and independent conviction, and, was courageous to assert her views and willing to work to-bring them to pass. Above all she was charitable and kind, painstaking and gentle with the young, those of little opportunity and the unfortunate, and she will be missed and mourned by many a boy and girl, man and woman who have reached maturity and moved away, and many a parent and family, she has advised and helped. Half a century of effective, accomplishing service, in a single field, is noble as in the work of teaching, is an achievement worthy of the noblest lives and ambitions; and the splendid character and exceptional achievement of this splendid woman will remain forever to be an inspiration and guide to many of our aspiring youth. THE BALLOT IS POWER The women who participated in the bond election of last Tuesday, as voters and workers at the polls, were more finished performers than most people expected they would be. Most people had anticipated seeing "flocks" of timid, nervous, uncertain creatures carefully venturing forth from "safe" positions up toward the polls, there to ask simple questions and finally to be turned back, or through some stroke of fortune "get by." But not at all. The very first speeches showed the women workers with ballots, registration sheets, pencils, alive and alert and taking hold of the untrained women as they come up, directing and leading them along the routine of casting their ballot. They appeared so very natural and "at home" in this new role that most of the veterans of the political game were amazed. And then, their demeanor and the good sense they betrayed were all that the most exacting man could have desired. Theirs was a dignified, self-conscious, self-reverent air, displaying independence of both ballot-expression and action. They "looked" like they understood just what a significant and far-reaching right they were exercising, and appeared to be fully conscious of all it may mean to women in the future. There was lots of zeal and an abundance of good sense in it all, and we are glad. TRUTH Solomon Bee 1211 Burroughs St. Sarannah, Ga. New York, N. Y., May 25th.

Dixon, 15 7th street and left a boy. His name will be Herbert Walters Blalock Dixon The committee and associated committee of the League of Women Voters did in every respect honor to themselves and to the cause for which they perplex. Special mention could be made of each committee and each one on the committee, if space and time would permit, but as the names would reach far into the hundreds we must forego the Idea; just now, nothing too complimentary can be said of the very excellent manner in which each individual conducted himself. We take this opportunity to thank each of you for your loyal support and pray that the inspiration and enthusiasm will never lag The shoppers committee stood to their post regardless of the extreme hot rays of the sun, many working over hours. The living squad was ever on the job, meeting voters as they arrived at the polls and directing them to their respective districts. The auto committee worked like soldiers, every where a woman could be seen steering the wheels of powerful cars delivering voters to the polls. Our men certainly did their parts in assisting this committee, for which we thank them. The committee at headquarters was ever giving information and checking as well as sending for tardy voters. This committee never relinquished its duty until the day was over. So well systematized was the work that there was not the slightest hitch during the entire day. The mock election given by the league the night before the election put many of the committees and the women generally in time for the use of the ballot Tuesday. Our women took to the new situation as ducks to a pond of fresh water. Over five hundred names were reported from headquarters, and more than fifteen hundred names from all committees. This alone shows what the League of Women Voters has meant to the women of our city. The League of Women Voters will hold their last meeting of the season at Carnegie Library the second Friday in June. 6:30 p.m. Every woman voter is urgently requested to be present to hear the annual reports of the officers. There will also be a report from the organization of the league. Come one come all.—Contributed.

West Broad and Huntingdon Sts T. J. (Kid) TWEEDY, Prop SPORTING NEWS The Letter Carriers won from the Bankers baseball nine by a close margin Saturday afternoon at the Bolton street base ball park. Strip and Webb were moundmen for the Letter-Carriers and Bankers teams respectively. The game was called at 5 o'clock with the Carriers in the out field. The Bankers played almost errorless ball but the hard hitting of Stripling and Branham and the pitching of Nixon, somewhat weakened their determination Nixon took the mound for the Carriers on the 4 inning when the score was 4:4, and from then to the last inning was a real pitcher's duel. During the last two inning five men fell victims to Nick. Fortunately during the encounter, the carriers put over 1 run which won the laurel.

Despite the chilly weather this spring, the attendance figures reveal the fact that much interest is being shown. The different teams are showing greatly improved form of that of last season at this time. There appears to be a wealth of good pitching material upon all clubs, in spite of the fact that the records show many free hitting contests. The Kansas City Monarchs, as well as the American Giants and Detroit Stars have all along been looked to for a display of prowess a little above the other Western circuit members. They having retained known and seasoned performers at all of the most important points of the defense, and have in many respects annexed an added amount of aggressiveness. There have not been enough games between the supposed stronger clubs to give a line on their ability as compared with the clubs whom this season were compelled to start the race with new faces and revised line-ups. The Kansas Cities did not live up to their American Giant pitching, tabling but twelve hits in three games while the Chicago team annexed but sixteen. The facts indicate that the best pitching, sports, may be upon these two teams, but there is nothing to warrant the belief that these clubs house the best hitting. The Detroit Stars and Bacharach Glants display greater hitting ability than either the Chicago team or K. Cs. with the Chicago team away out in front of the heap on base running and around finish. The series of games between the St. Louis Giants, Columbus, A. B. C's and Columbus, Chicago Giants, St. Louis, A. B. C's and Kansas City, Columbus Giants, St. Louis and Kansas City is reassuring evidence that five clubs at least are going to be in a death struggle at all times for superior honors. The standing of the clubs issued at various stages, has not particular bearing upon the real strength of the contestants, owing to the difficulties encountered in drawing a schedule to meet the demands of contingencies ever present. A glance at any of the standings will at once reveal the fact that it is possible for the leading club to have won many less games than clubs further down in the heap and still retain the lead. So far, the St. Louis outfit appear to be setting the pace on hitting, having batted at a 300 clip in eight games against the strongest pitching. The Indianapolis clubs follows with 265 in eight games against strong pitching. Columbus, a club with all practically new men, have hit 257 against strong pitching. The Chicago Giants, have shown weak hitting in their seven games, only tabbing 213. The A. B. Gs have shown an average of more runs per game, while hitting one less hit per game. The games so far, would indicate great improvement at St. Louis and Indianapolis, with Columbus a dangerous dark horse in the figuring. AMERICAN GIANTS Chicago, Sun. ' May 22—American Giants defeated Briscoe Motors of Jackson, Mich. 8 to 5, at Schorling park yesterday, each side pushing four runs in the third inning.

The store sale bill tells them the particulars of your coming sale, appeals to the natural instinct of women to buy at bargain prices. These sale bills should convey no intimation of cheapness—in the printing and paper. We do not suggest extravagance; merely the logical attitude to adopt in sending out printed announcements—that subtle something in makeup that gives no occasion to suspect cheapness or question veracity.

At least this is the opinion of numbers of colored and white people who have been watching the developments of the campaign recently launched to capture the persons and their backers who have exercised a reign of bomb terror for the past several years throughout the city. Andrew Kerr, a member of a local labor organization, was arrested in the early part of the week as a bomb suspect. Mr. Keer, feeling that the police had the goals on him, promptly began to talk with the result that within a few hours following his confession the police had in their net the man who bombed the home of ex-Alderman Oscar DePriest as well as another members who are alleged to have been the principals in a large number of instances of labor disputes in which the bomb was used as an instrument of quite ungentle persecution. It was not long after the arrests that rumors began to fly around that the Hyde Park Improvement Association, the organization, which has been accused of being behind the numerous bombing of colored property homes would be hopelessly involved in the matter. Kerr admits that he, with others under arrest, were hired to do bombing. Negroes' homes were among the places bombed by this infamous gang. It follows, many people declare, that the gang was hired to bomb the homes of colored people by parties who had the money to pay for the work. It is definitely known that the Hyde Park anti-Negro association possessed a fund acknowledged by its members of more than $200,000 with which to prosecute a campaign to crowd out and prevent the occupation of certain territory by colored families. In the DePriest bombing Keer flatly declares that he and his companions were hired to do the job because of their expert knowledge of the game of bombing. Up to the present he has declined to tell who were the parties behind him in this particular instance. The police express the opinion that he is not through talking. That when he becomes hard pressed he will then open his mouth very wide and tell all he knows about all the recent bombings. Then the fire is expected to fly with a vengeance. If the opinions of the people who have been alert to follow all the clues that have been uncarried within the past year are worth anything, the group of associations who have been busy pushing a vigilant anti-Negro propaganda in our city have good reason to quake with fear. Two games of expert bombers are under arrest. It is now confidently expected that within a few days that the hackers of these toughs and criminals will also be in the toils. In the mean time a group of colored men are adding to defense fun for the purpose of bringing the hackers to justice and thereby the reign of bombing terror which has caused so much unrest among the respectable colored people in the great city of Chicago. NEGRO'S PART BRAZIL HISTORY Rio Janetro, Brazil, May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—Brazilian students of history of the country are bringing to light the very important part that the egro has played in the life and struggles of the Republic to sons of the earth. Their studies have brought forth the facts that several of the Presidents have been Negroes. Generals of prominence; distinguished men of letters; musicians of note; artists; eminent publicists; jurists and merchant princes have been and are active in the affairs of the country today who possess more than a mere fraction of Negro blood. It is interesting to note that Matto Grosso the State where the government is putting forth special efforts to encourage Negroes from the United States to settle has produced more than its share of persons of prominence in the history of the country who are to be classed as Negroes. This historical fact is pointed out as good and sufficient reason why Negroes from the States should settle in this part of Brazil. The climate the government claims, is especially suited to the American Negro's nature. It is semi-tropic and compares most favorably with the climatic conditions in the southern part of the United States. This coupled with the free band for development makes the state of Matto Grasso the government arrives an ideal place for Negroes to settle in. BUSINESS LEAGUE LAUNCHES DRIVE BUSINESS LEAGUE LAUNCHES DRIVE Washington, D. C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—The National Negro Business League has launched a great Membership Campaign and seeks to get in 5,000 new members before the next convention which will be held in Atlanta, Ga., August 17, 15 and 19, 1921. Secretary Emmett J. Scott state that it has been decided to increase the membership of the League at this time in order to be able to carry out the new program which seeks to place the National Negro Business League on a forward-looking basis and one that will best carry out the object of the League which is: To promote the commercial and financial development of the Negro.

Phil Campbell of Athens, Ga., is the director and U. S. Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. excellent demonstrations are being conducted at Gammann school of Theology Atlanta, Ga., there are rural pastors attending this school from Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Tennessee. The demonstrations in making model sanitary, toilets, dog hoppers and poultry houses are being given by Mr. Alva Tabor Assistant State Agent. Miss Janinita Conyers, home demonstration agent is conducting demonstrations in shuck mat making rag rugs, cooking and canning. Also giving lectures, on food, rural and urban hygiene. Mr I. A. Williams, State Agent for Negro work, will give lectures during the last week of the school HOME DEMONSTRA- An interesting cooking demonstration in making Puff-Ball Doughnuts of the Jacksville Home Demonstration Club members was held on May 25, at the home of Mrs. Maggie Royal. Thursday the West Saranah Home Demonstration women held their first-canning demonstration of the season at the home of Mrs. Mary Burnery. The members canned quite a large quantity of snap-beans doing some perfect packs for exhibit work. The women in the Southover Juction community organized a home demonstration (club on Friday, May 27, at the home of Mrs. Bessle Smith. Mr. Selipt Wilson, president of the Chatham County Farmers' Inst., and Mr. B. S. Adams, local agent and Mr. E. A. Williams were present and gave interesting talks relative to club work. The home demonstration agent Miss Conyers, has outlined all the canning programs and work in child welfare for all the clubs. THE home demonstration agent spent the first part of last week at Brookman in the Miller Tract community. On Tuesday, a demonstration on canning-smash was held at the home of Mrs. Lucretia Mitchell, president of the Home Demonstration club in the community. Before the time for the demonstration Mrs. Mitchell took the agent on a visiting tour, walking seven miles, and visiting six homes there were either members of the adult or girls club. On Wednesday the new kitchen which has been especially built for demonstration work was used for the first time, the adult and girls clubs meeting jointly. The demonstration for the women was on putting up English peas, which are still to be found; while the girls put up string hems furnished by Mrs. Laura Jones, Mrs. Copeland brought the peas. Perhaps the readers of Interesting News to Farmers and other club members will be interested to know of some of the resourcefulness at the group of women and girls. First, they are seriously handicapped at the kitchen by the lack of water. This was overcome through the thotfulness of Mrs. Copeland, who had; her husband, lying, a large key of water from home, together with all the wood needed. Mrs. Mitchell and others also brot hard cans and buckets all of which were filled and gave sufficient water. The next difficulty came in the form of a dark cloud which made it doubtful whether or not the canning could be done outside, and we only had an outdoor canner. With a hurry and a bustle, Mrs. Clinch dug up an old elbow pipe and in a liffy we had the outdoor canner indoors with only the smoke going out. Difficulties become mere bag-tables around these women. During the processing of the vegetables, the pre-ident of both clubs called their meeting, leaving Miss Josephine Mitchell, a prospective club member, to tend the fire. The home demonstration agent spoke to the women of the county, and to the girls concerning the short course. Twenty-two quarts of vegetables were caimed. Those present were: Woneh—Mrs. Lucretia Mitchell, Annie Mae Maxwell, Miss Pearl Baldwin, Belle Baldwin, Emma Stafford, Ida Davis, Lilia Mitchell, Ada Clineh, Mlnie short, Laura Jones, Beecher Jones, Belle Copeland and Mary Mack. Girls—Eva Copeland, Annie Mae Maxwell, Myla and Mae Ruth Blue, Alpha Ford, Mlnie Ballor, Willle Smith and a number of visitors. Thursday, the canning club at Risley school, Brunswick, packed and canned four 10 oz jars of beans. Only twenty members of this large club were selected for the demonstration because of the lack of stove space and because we only have the recess period of an hour and a half to work. Friday and Saturday a neighborhood demonstration was held on Lee street, where several came in to assist in canning in tin, using a new canner just bought by the agent for the club at Miller Tract. During the week 52 quarts of vegetables were canned. POLK COUNTY NEWS The farmers and farm women of Polk County Farmers' Club met with Chairman J. W. Leigh and Louie Mathis, demonstration agent on Saturday May 7. This meeting was well attended. Each community was represented and had the honor of having us Prof. W. H. Garner, Polk County Agriculture demonstration agent who made a rousing speech on the value of organizing a Cooperative Farm Bureau with the colored farmers of Polk County. Prof. Alva Tabor, assistant state Negro club agent of Sariannah, Ga., spoke on the value of club work and explained the work of colored bureau. After a general and thoro discussion of the plans and purposes of the Farm Bureau, it was decided by unanimous vote of those present to organize the Farmer's club into a Farm Bureau to co-operate with the white Farmers' Bureau. A committee of five together with Louis Mathis, the demonstration, agent was asked to draw up resolutions and to meet with the white farmers on the 12th day of May at the court house, at Cedertown. A community council was also organized in each district to arouse more interest in annual gardens, pure bread poultry, thorubred and registered pigs, canning and corn clubs. In agriculture and home economies. To discuss different farm problems in producing and preserving more food to help reduce the high cost of living.

NEGRO HOSTLER SHOT BY COLONEL Washington, D.C., May 25th (Associated Negro Press)—"What the hell do you think I shot him for?" was the angry retort of Lieutenant Colonel James E. Shelley when he was asked by an onlooker of the tragedy why he shot Richard Christmas, a Negro hostler, last Monday morning. The shooting came as a sequel to an altercation which had occurred between the two men the day before at the government stables where the soldier had attempted to mistreat the The F THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY "The Little Nurse for Little Life" Burns Bandage the spot with plenty of soothing A HEALING OPEN Mentholatum Cools and heals gently and antiseptically.

The hostler approaching the white man sought to ascertain from him the cause of the first attack. The insistence of the colored man angered the Colonel and he struck him with the butt end of his riding whip, whereupon the hostler grappled with him and was, apparently, getting the better of the fistic argument when the soldier drew an automatic revolver from his hip pocket and shot his opponent in the abodmen. Bystanders, white and black, were unanimous in declaring the shooting as a most cowardly act. They also asserted that the striking of the hostler with the butt end of the whip was unprovoked and utterly unwarranted. It was the query of one of these bystanders that provoked the "What the hell do you think I shot him for?" from the irate Lieutenant Colonel. Christmas has slight chance of recovery. He has given out a statement of the affairs which tallies with the versions of the people who saw both encounters in which he and the soldier were the principals. "The colonel's statement that I was cutting capers on a horse I was exercising are not true. The animal was a bit fractious and in my efforts to control her we came somewhat near to where the colonel was standing. He ripped out an oath and struck me. I naturally resented this. On Monday I approached him merely to say that I meant no offense when I sought to protect myself from his attack on Saturday. He cursed me and struck me with his whip. During the sight which followed he pulled a gun and shot me. I think I had a right to protect myself no matter if he is a colonel." Colonel Shelley's friends have rallied to his support and do not expect that he will be punished for his part in the encounter.

Steamer Fare 50 cents Committee—W. A. Wilder D. Canty. Secretary Thos. McPherson, Chairman Medical Asociation meets there for its twenty-third annual session, August 21-25, inclusive. In choosing Louisville as the meeting place the Association showed rare judgement. No other city offers so many inducements for Negro professional men to assemble as Louisville. Situated on the Ohio river within a days journey of Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, Cincinnati and St. Louis, its admirable location makes it easy of access to the larger cities of the country, and being a railroad center it is handily reached from every section of the United States. The most progressive type of Negro business is to be found in Louisville—the recently organized First National Bank, capitalized at $125,000.00 and two Insurance companies are not surpassed in their administration by any similar institutions in the country. Few cities can boast of the scenic location of Louisville—situated on the banks of the rightly named Ohio, it offers opportunity for boating, fishing and other forms of water sport.
