C., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—"LILY WHITE" the infamous, notorious, nefarious, sacreligious, and hell-hearted dame of southern debased ideas, is on the rampage again! If "Lily" is permitted to run loose, as now appears to be the Republican program, so far as the South is concerned, may God help America and the G. O. P! President Warren G. Harding, than whom, no finer exponent of human jus tice, by word of mouth, ever occupied the Executive chair, is seemingly being invigued to acquiesce in a program that has for its object the elimination of colored Americans from absolute consideration in southern politics. This amazing condition of affairs is thorously presented in a four column, even tempered, frank editorial in the Atlanta Independent, issue of May 1st. The editorial sets forth the establishment of a "Committee of One Hundred," which seeks to re-establish the Republican party among whites in Georgia and very obviously has for its ultimate object, the elimination of Henry Lincoln Johnson, and his following, both white and colored, in Georgia politics. President Harding, recognized this committee, and thus Chairman Will H. Hayes, of the Republican National Committee, declares his decision in the premises, is without appeal. Sleep and Hitchcock Confer Congressman Bascom Stemp, of Virginia, and Frank H. Hitchcock, former Chairman of the Republican National Committee and former Postmaster General under President Taft, have been known by The Associated Negro Press to have conferred, and it is well-founded opinion, that the subject of Southern political conditions, as they affect colored Americans, was thoroughly discussed. Congressman Slemp is chairman of the sub-committee, of the Republican National Committee, that has the matter of dealing with the delegates to the National convention, under consideration. Congress Slemp is known as a "Lily White" of the first degree, according to colored leaders of Virginia, Frank Hitchcock, for years, has been known to be obsessed with the idea of building up a Republican party in the South, in which colored citizens would practically be eliminated, except possibly that miserable few of "Uncle Toms" who would do the building of their masters. The situation has reached a crisis in Washington, and has superceded all other considerations. The subject of patronage has become nothing, as compared with it. In fact, on the subject of patronage, Robert I. Church, of Tennessee, had an extended conference with President Harding about three weeks ago. The conference was one of confidential exchange of opinions and policies. Mr. Church has not apprised the Associated Negro sourajuans so to squap so to ssss but it has been learned from reliable sources that President Harding was painfully frank in letting it be known that there are to be certain limitations of the administrations in appointing colored men to office. In other words, the Harding Administration, in seeking honestly to apply the tonic of justice, will not go so far as to appoint colored people to positions that will bring forth bitter comment from white southerners. So serious has become the political status of the race, in the Republican party, that all reactionalism has ceased, and all the well-known leaders throut the country are presenting a solid front to the common enemy of the times, "Lily White." Democrats Taking Notice. Democrats in Washington, and thrust the South are taking special notice of the moves of the "Lily Whites." Once holding, and the spoils of office have been the magic combinations that have held southern Democrats together, with anti-Negro propaganda (Continued on Page 7) The Savannah Tribune TRIO PINCHED FOR BURGLARY Chicago, Ill., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—Early last Wednesday Patrolman Harry Deas discovered Leo Hunt, 18, of 200 State street, standing behind an open coal hole in the sidewalk in front of a store at 3220. Stato street. "Say, Officer," volunteered Lee, "my dog fell down there and I can't get 'im out." Just then the head of William Caldwell, 22, of 3220 S. State street appeared thru the hole. Deas helped him out. "Somebody left that open and I fell in." he asserted. "Fell in by myself, officer. You'd ought to pinch these careless folks." The patrolman waited. In a minute out popped Oscar Johnson 22, 60 E. 35th street. He came out so rapidly he didn't have any explanation. The trio—all colored—were booked for burglary. NEGRO AUTOISTS TO STAGE RACES ON JULY 4TH Event to be Held At The Fair Grounds SEVERAL OUT-OF-TOWN DRIVERS EXPECTED TO TAKE PART IN BIG MEET What in all probability will be the first automobile racing held by Negro drivers in this part of the country will be that of the Fourth of July when about sixteen Negro speed kings will meet here on the track of the Tri-State Exposition fair grounds for the championship of Georgia. The event attho only definitely decided upon last Wednesday has created any amount of talk among the automobile men. Numbers of Entries About twelve of the local drivers have already given the promoters their assurance of taking part in the meet. Word was received yesterday from a well known business man of Augusta that he will probably enter two cars in the races and has requested the committee staging the meet to send him entrance blanks. It is also probable that there will be one entry each from Atlanta and Macon. The meet is being promoted by a committee of prominent Negro business and professional men who are very desirous of making it a success from every standpoint. The committee is in charge of Wm. McKelrey, the well-known automobile tire and accessory dealer. Events The subcommittee which has in charge the racing program has tentatively decided upon three light car races, two heavy car events and two events for motorcycles. The heavy car events will, most likely, consist of a fifteen and a twenty mile race. It is the plan of the committee to have a program which will consist of about two and a half hours of exciting speed events. This in all probability will be the most elaborate Fourth of July program ever attempted by Negroes. The price of admission will be 50 cents to the grounds and 25 cents to the grand stand. Prize money to the amount of $600 will be hung up for the speedsters to win. A full list of events and information of interest will be given out next week. Washington, D. C., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—The state department is understood practically to have completed its plan for withdrawal of the American military government from the Dominican republic. The plan probably will be made public soon with the approval of President Harding. Secretaries Denby and Hughes conferred again on the subject. Later Secretary Hughes went to the White House for a brief visit, SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY JUNE 4, SPEAKERS PLEAD FOR AMITY BOTH RACES MUST LEARN TO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER Washington, D. C., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—Pleas for the white and colored delegates to the convention for amity between he colored and white races to spread the new spirit of racial understanding were made by speakers at the morning session of the Inter-racial Convention, held in the First Congregational church, 10th and G streets northwest. Representative Theodore E. Burton, Charles Lee Cook of Louisville, Ky., and Louis G. Gregory were the speakers. "The races must dwell in amity in this country because they live side by side," said Mr. Burton. "The colored race should be recognized by white men, not only because the Constitution of the United States requires it, but by the divine power of God." "Both races," he continued, "must learn to understand each other. He told the delegates that if a crime was committed by a colored man his people should help in bringing him to justice. At the same time," he added, "If a crime was committed and the offender unknown, and a colored man happened to be around, people should not jump to the conclusion that a colored man committed it." "We are to take an important place among the nations of the world," said Senator, "but we must first put our house in order. One of the most serious blots on our national life is that of lynching. This is not against the colored man alone, but against the white man as well. I am ready to do whatever can be done, by constitutional amendment or otherwise, to remove this frightful blench from the nation." Hope that the convention may become the stepping-stone to the final achievement of human and universal brotherhood was expressed by Charles Lee Cook, a manufacturer of Louisville, Ky. The world, he said, is looking and has always looked, to this country for social justice. There is a great work ahead, he continued, in bringing about racial understanding. All must face it and help to achieve it, and not bury their heads in the sands of optimism. He pointed out that individuals must do their part in this great work. "Let's try to indicate the divinely appointed mission of America. Break every bond of misunderstanding." He told the delegates to go out from the convention and spread the new spirit, a stronger spirit of Christian gratitude. "The white and colored are one in origin and one in destiny, for from God we came and to Him we return," said Louis G. Gregory. "It is for us to consider in a way that is material, how to increase inter-racial harmony." FEDERAL BOARD CONFERENCE AT HAMPTON FEDERAL BOARD CONFERENCE AT HAMPTON Training Staff Closes Successful Program MANY TOPICS ARE DISCUSSED AND CO-OPERATION STRESSED BY ALL PRESENT Hampton, Va., June 1st-"The large purpose of home-economics instruction in vocational schools and classes is self-Improvement, together with home and community betterment," declared Adelalde S.

TUSKEGEE INST HOLDS COM- MENCEMENT 270 Certificates and Diplomas.. Awarded..... MISS EVELY, CONSTANCE CONYERS OF THIS CITY AMONG GRADUATES May 26—The fortieth annual commencement exercises of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, which began Sunday afternoon, May 22, with the splendid commencement sermon by Dr. Charles W. Crisler, pastor of the Galloway Memorial Methodist church of Jackson, Miss., were concluded today when 270 diplomas and certificates were awarded, by Dr. It. R. R. Moton, principal. This repudiated the largest class graduating from the Institute in its forty years of existence. Exercises Largely Attended Commencement at Tuskégee Institute is looked upon by many people in the rural districts and towns and cities nearby as the time, of an annual pilgrimage to the institute. In accord with this custom at an early hour this morning throughs of people could be seen on the campus and many teams and automobiles parked on the old hitching ground. Many of these had faded the heavy down-pour of rain last night rather than be fate or absent from the exercises which meant so much to them. In addition to this crowd large numbers of visitors came by rail from points far and near, including many white people from Montgomery, Opelika and Auburn. Features of the Exercises The features of the exercises of the day were: the annual alumni address by Jesse O. Thomas, class of 11, field secretary of the Urban League, Atlanta, Ga., the annual address by Dr. P. James Bryant, pastor of the Wheat Street Baptist church, Atlanta, Ga., the principal's advice to the graduating class and the industrial exhibition. The Morning Exercises The program of the day began at 10:00 o'clock in the morning, at which time illustrated orations were delivered by members of the graduating class. Subjects pertaining to various phases of home life as well as those relating to farming and other vocations were discussed and practical examples and demonstrations given. This portion of the day's activities was very interesting and was enthusiastically received by the audience. At 1:00 p.m. the customary commencement parade through the grounds to the Institute chapel, showed off, headed by the Institute band and the R. O. T. C. unit and the girls. Following these were: Principal Moton, the speakers, members of the faculty and graduating class, bringing up the rear. The line of march was fully a mile in length. The first number following a musical selection by the institute choir was that phase of a Tuskegee commencement to which many visitors look forward with much eagerness, enthusiasm and interest, namely the industrial exhibition. Few things show more clearly and effectively the practicability of the training afforded by Tuskegee than does this industrial exhibition which was composed of practical demonstrations of work in the various industrial departments such as domestic science, carpentry, blacksmithing, shoemaking, electric wiring, steam fitting auto mechanics and many other activities of the school. Principal Moton Addresses Graduates As in the past years the diplomas were presented by the principal. Alumni Address One of the features of the Exercises was the Annual Alumni Address which was delivered by Jesse O. Thomas. As an evidence of the appreciation of what has been done for this institution, including all of our class of 1011, Dr. Thomas presented the school a check for $655 from his class. Annual Commencement Address The annual commencement address, which was delivered by Dr. P. James Bryant, pastor of the Wheat Street Baptist church, Atlanta, Georgia, was enthusiastically received by all and was one of the best read at the Institute. Another feature of the entire Commencement program, which deserves special mention was the music rendered by the Institute Choir. The most (Continued on Page 3). DISCRIMINATION IN DEPARTMENTS STUDENT OF UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO LATEST VICTIM Chicago, Ill., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—Persistent rumors of deliberate and aggravating cases of discrimination against colored men in the several departments of the United States Army service continue to exist. A recent instance of gross discrimination has come to the attention of The Associated Negro Press. Robert L. Ephrim, a student at the University of Chicago is the latest victim of race prejudice in this direction. A representative of the A. N. P. interviewed the young man and he made the following statement of the part he played in an effort to take advantage of the training at the Reserve Officers' Training Camp: "I entered Howard University the Autumn Quarter of 1918 and connected myself with Unit 311 Reserve Officers Training Corps. Seven men were sent up from Howard to the Reserve Officers' Training Camp at Camp Devens, Mass. Upon my return to Howard I was commissioned and appointed Battalion Adjutant of 311th Unit. Upon finishing the Junior College there, I entered the Senior college of Arts and Sciences at the University of Chicago with the intention of connecting myself with the Military Science department there. I took the matter up with Col. Marr, the commanding officer who informed me that it was against the policy of the War department to admit Negroes in the Artillery, to admit it were the infantry or the cavalry there would be no discrimination. I found nothing in the catalogue making color a prerequisite to any department, so I took the matter up with the Dean of the Senior College and the Dean of men, who claimed that they were powerless to act in the case. It was then that I appealed to President Harry Prutt Judson who after hearing the facts, asked that I call at his office about two days later. This I did only to be told by his office girl that the President had given the Death of the senior college power to act in the case. Of course, the dean didn't att, and here is where the case rests. Since the Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy has said the fundamental laws recognized no group distinction, no sectional distinction and no class distinction, and there must be none in legislation and administration, it begins to me that this is a splendid opportunity to at least test the succuity of the President's utterances." WILLIAM PICKENS SPEAKS ON KU KLUXISM Imperia' Wizzard.. Slanders Negro Women. NEGRO MUST FIGHT FOR THE HONOR OF HIS WOMEN AND INNOCENT CHILDREN New York, N. X., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—Interviewed by an Associated Negro Press representative last Friday afternoon, William Pickens, the noted orator delivered himself of the following when he was asked his opinion of Col. William J. Simmons, the imperial wizard of the Ku Klux Klan: "White men, stop seducing white women; there are plenty apes in America." These are the words of the Imperial wizard,—or as the old colored man in Georgia said, by a slip of the tongue, the "Imperial Buzzard." These words he uttered to the other birds of that feather when they flocked together in Atlanta to present him with a $25,000 roost. This speech was delivered from the front porch, when no colored man was supposed to be in hearing except a few chanfeufs. Another colored man was there. "Colored people, what interpretation do you put upon those somewhat ambiguous and altogether nasty, words? The laughter and ogling which they occasioned are apart of the commentary. They were thus received: Do not seduce white women; there are others around, who are no better than apes,—use them. The fight of a race situated as are the colored people in America, is always largely a fight for the honor of its women and the innocence of its children. The Ku Klux Klan is a new PROMINENT SAVANNAHIANS BACK STAND TAKEN FOR LAW BY GOVERNOR DORSEY DIAMOND SET IN PLATINUM PRESENTED COLORED BOX Washington, D. C., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—Master Lenoir Cook, a colored boy of Washington, D. C., was presented with a handsome diamond set in platinum by an unknown young white woman after he had finished singing "Mammy" by special request at the Convention for Amity Between the White and Colored Races which was recently held in the city. The song was written by the boy's uncle, William Marlon Cook, and was dedicated to the latter's mother, whom the family all called "Mam." The lyrics were written by Lester A. Walton, of New York City.

Adams of Savannah, who was among the fifty prominent Georgians signing a statement upholding the stand taken by Governor Dorsey in regard to the race conditions in Georgia, was one of the Savannahians who were invited to attend the meeting held in Atlanta last Wednesday to discuss the matter. The meeting was the result of a call to a group of citizens from all over the state, and was attended by a large number of prominent men and women who considered the race conditions with particular reference to the governor's published statement on the subject of the Negro in Georgia. The result of the meeting was the hearty endorsement of the governor's position in the matter. Judge Adams' Statement "Upon the request of a number of meeting held in Atlanta-on tae 25th instant. The purpose of it was to take counsel together as to the condition of affairs in Georgia, the publication of the pamphlet entitled "The Negro in Georgia," and as to the best means of stemming a tide of lawlessness. It was my first meeting. There must have been more than fifty citizens present, among them a number of prominent and representative indies. We were together from 11:00 o'clock until about 5:00 in the afternoon, with a recess for lunch and the discussion continued during the lunch. "A paper was read by Judge Andrew J. Cobb of Athens, one of the original committee. Like everything from Judge Cobb, it was calm, dispassionate and forceful. He stated the publication of the pamphlet containing the data was directed by the committee, of which he was a member, and this committee assumed its full responsibility therefor. By unanimous action of the meeting last Wednesday, his paper was endorsed and its publication directed. To the extent of its reading, it will do good, and will particularly appeal to thoughtful and intelligent men who are not politicians, "have 'no axe to grind,' and are not concerned in playing politics with a situation that is externally acute and ought to be very painful to every Georgian. "It was also unanimously agreed that the executive committee publish a shorter paper, in the nature of an address to the public and within the terms of the report made at the meeting by this committee, and of the address of Judge Cobb, to which the names of all of those present at the last meeting should be signed. My impression was that this paper would not be given to the public until some time this week. I judge from the morning paper that in some way the substance of its contents has been given publicity. A reading, however, of the full paper will be necessary to its exact understanding. "The consensus of opinion—I may say, the unanimous agreement—was that while a few statements in the pamphlet—a very few—may not be susceptible of full, proof, yet there were a number of incidents in Georgia of a most deplorable character which the pamphlet did not notice, and that, therefore, the statement was in substance, not overdrawn. The conclusion was that, while the remedy by publication seemed to be heroic, was calculated to cause some excitement and censure and would be utilized by politicians, who, in order to get or keep office, would rather pat people on the back and appear as their champions, whether the truth was told or not, than admit the truth and address themselves courageously to the remedy of the evil, this remedy was necessary and justified. "It is certainly true that there was not a man or woman present against whom the charge could be truthfully made that he or she was not true to Georgia, or bore it slack allegiance, or OUT OF TOWN NEWS [Washington, D.C. News Attorney W. Ashleigh Hawkins, of Baltimore, has been selected for the speaker of the day, at the annual meeting of the alumnae association of Howard University, June 10, the session opening at 11 a.m. Isaac Nutter, of Atlantic City, President of the association, has extended an invitation to all of the 1921 graduates to be present and participate in the meeting.

HAMPTON R. O. T. C. ANNUAL'DRILL LT. COL. N. M. CARTMELL TO-COMMAND R. O. T. C. AT HAMPTON Hampton, Va., June 1st. "Not one person in ten thousand people of the United States realizes what it means to be a member of a military establishment. That is the reason why the military establishment of the United States has never been recognized as it should be: the people do not understand. Being in the military service, you have a terrible responsibility, and until everyone in the service and out of it realizes the terrible responsibility of a man in the military establishment in time of war, they cannot appreciate what that establishment means." Col. Richmond P. Davis, U. S. A., commandant of Fort Monroe, made these statements in his recent address to the Hampton Institute battalion of cadets which is now a Reserve Officers' Training Corps unit, at the close of the annual competitive drill, which was won by "O" Company, James A. Smothers of Mt. Meigs, Ala., commanding. The judges were Maj. J. L. Sinclair, Maj. D. W. Swan, Jr., and Capt. T. H. French, all Coast Artillery Corp. officers stationed at Fort Monroe. "I congratulate the entire battalion," said Colonel Davis, "on a most excellent performance and a performance which is a credit to yourselves and your institution, but I especially congratulate the authorities and the battalion because today you are a member of the R. O. T. C. "For many years you have had a battalion, but that battalion simply stood for this great institution, which has done for many years such a wonderful work for you and your people; but today it is different. The battalion is on an entirely different status. You are now a member of the military establishment of one of the greatest countries of the world." "As soon as you have become members of the military establishment, you have dedicated your lives, if called on, to the service of your Government, and therefore you represent, not only soldiers and not only civilians, but the most partific citizens of the country. This is the reason why it is so splendid to have these Reserve Officers' Training Corps must established all over this great land. Officers Training "What are some of the things that you should do to fit yourselves for this work? One of them is this: be loyal to your outfit, be loyal to yourself. Everyone knows what loyalty is, and if, in time of peace, when you are preparing for war, the great erie may come, you have not incutated in your soul that principle of loyalty, never will you be a soldier. In your dealing with members of your command, just as in your dealing with each other in your community, you should take to heart and attempt to cultivate in yourself the principles of courtesy. Courtesy is the foundation of the military establishment, just as it is the foundation of civil establishment. It is desirable in the civil establishment but it is an absolute necessity, if you are going to be a soldier. "Another thing: never question orders. Okey them promptly and obey them cheerfully. That is one of the first principles of a soldier's life. A real soldier never questions the orders of his superiors, but when he is told to do something, he goes at it with life and snag, to accomplish it to the best of his abilities. If he is ever fall in command, exercise your command with firmness and justice. If there is any one thing that human nature will respond to, it is firmness and justice. Remember that, if the man over you is just, it matters not how hard he is, you will respect him, you will love him, and you will try to do his bidding." Lt. Col. Nathaniel M. Curtneth, U. S. A., has arrived at Hampton Institute to take command of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps unit. Lt. Col Clifton R. Norton, who has been in command of the local R. O. T. C. unit for the past year, will leave on June 15 for service with the 76th Field Artillery at Camp Phe, Ark. Colonel Cartmell was a member of the class of 1808 at Washington and Lee. He entered the U. S. Cavalry in 1808 and served with the Rough Riders in the Spanish-American War. He also served in the Philippine Islands. From 1901 until 1914 he served in the permanent establishmen and was retired from the U. S. Army-with the rank of captain. During the World War Colonel Cartmell was stationed at Camp Pike. He comes from Winchester, Va. GAROON AREA RECOMING GABBON AREA BECOMING GRAVEYARD FOR DYING RACES London, June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—Frederick W. H. Mingeod, fellow of the Royal Geographical社 society, has just returned from two trips across equatorial Africa, from sea to sea. He gave details of a remarkable instance of ace sulcule. "The Gaboon area," said Migeod, "is becoming a vast graveyard for the dy ing races of Central Africa. For some time the kenda of Subara have been advancing southward and there has been a steady trek of native tribes south and west into French territory. There they are held up by more vigorous coastal races and settle down determined to die out. "It is the most amazing case of racial suicide that the world ever saw, I passed among tribes where the women refuse, to bear children and in another generation, if the present ideas preglott, they will die out." COLORED WOMAN AWARDED VERDICT AGAINST CITY Chicago, Ill., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—A verdict awarding Ada Dozier, 3515, Federal street, a colored woman, damages of $2,200 against the city of Chicago, was returned by a jury of white men in Superior court before Judge Samuel Stoughm last Friday. This was the first of thirty- eight damage cases against the city originating in the race riots of July, 919, to be tried. Of the venemen selected all were white except Ellis Thompson of 6220 S. Morgan street, who was rejected by asst. state's attorney, representing "city. It was brought out at the trial that during the rioting a committee had waited on Mayor Thompson and been assured of ample police protection. The following day thousands of handbills were circulated on the south side by Ad. R. R. Jackson of the second ward. They told the colored people who had been staying in their homes, fearing to go work, that the Mayor guaranteed ample police protection. William Henry Dozler, husband of Mrs. Ada Dozler, was killed by a mob at the entrance to the stockyards the following day. Attorney A. L. Williams, representing Mrs. Dozler read the hand bills into the record, alleging they had been the indirect cause of Dozler's death. One of them read: 'All stockyards workers may return to their work with out fear of molestation or bodily harm. Mayor Thompson guarantees that all races will receive a square deal. He has made safe, by ample police protection, 25th and 47th streets to Halsted street and Halsted street to the stockyards.'

EFFECTIVENESS OF INTER- EFFECTIVENESS OF INTER-RACIAL CO-OPERATION SHOWN Tuskegee Institute, Ala., June 1st (Associated Negro Press)—The effectiveness of inter-racial cooperation, as promoted by the Inter-racial Commission throughout the South, was clearly shown a few weeks ago when a prominent white citizen and a colored minister of the town of Tuskegee, Alabama had a misunderstanding concerning the shooting of a very valuable dog. During a mad dog scare in the section of Greenwood, which is adjacent to the Tuskegee Institute, a valuable bird dog owned by a young white man of the town of Tuskegee was shot. It appears that the dog was not mad but was on its way from the veterinary hospital of the Institute where it had been treated for another affliction and the killing was an unfortunate mistake. The misunderstanding was caused by an inaccurate report of the shooting, which implied that the dog had been maliciously killed. Whereupon the young man with two others went to the colored man's place of business to demand an explanation. Although the parties had no official relationship with the Institute, a few of the Institute teachers, who resided in the vicinity arranged a conference between Principal Moton and Warren Logan, Treasurer of the Institute and Drs.

Kearns safe that if the champion eliminates George Carpentier on July 2 all barriers will be let down. The next opponent of Dempsey after Carpentier has been compared will be the man whose services can guarantee a purse worthy of consideration by the heavy-weight champion of the world." Kearns made this announcement when asked whether Kid Norfolk had refused advances to come her as sparing partner. Kearns said that all reports that he had made "special rates" to Norfolk are unfounded Norfolk would be welcome, no doubt, but as far as going to the point of guaranteeing a meeting with the color of heavy, weight, Kearns would make no promises. If the American public demands that because Kid Norfolk, or any other Negro, and the promoter is found who will guarantee the sum necessary to promote such a match, he will be ready in behalf of Denney to eliminate the color line. "He has the ambition to be pronounced the greatest heavyweight of all time. I believe that consideration is coming to him. I think that on July 2, he will make that verdict unplumous."

NINTH DAY OF MAY SET ASIDE AS HOLIDAY Philadelphia, Penna., Juhe 1st (Associated Negro Press)—The recent reception accorded the Liberian President and the distinguished group of his fellow countrymen, by the colored citizens was made a gala affair.

Ham, pastor of the Baptist Tabernacle, on last Sun- day night took occasion to discuss at one length the situation brought out in Georgia by the charges of peonage and the counter charges of "sensationalism made in defense. it will do us no good to say, "if isn't so," "said Dr. Ham. "The fact that 400 lynchings have occurred without punishment of the offenders, be sufficient reason why, the whole matter should be exposed and brought to the attention of thinking people. The injection of racial prejudice into the discussion will get us nowhere. It is time for calm consideration and careful weighing of the consequences that are sure to follow unless condition are remedied." Dr. Ham declared that peonage conditions exist in conflict camps through Georgia that prisoners are flogged and mistreated, that barbarous practices prevail under the guise of legal authorities. He asserted that "peonage within the law" is more offensive than "peonage without the law." "The moral issue cannot be beclouded," said he minister.
