TULSA WHITES VEST SPLEEN ON NEGRO BUSINESS
Prominent Negroes Killed By Mob
WHOLE TRUTH NOT TOLD
Raped White Girl A Myth—Negro Business and Better Home Section Laid Waste
Tulsa, Oklahoma, June 5th (Associat al Negro Press)—Tulsa lies strick en almost unto death. The city is literally in sackcloth and aces and it seems like neveritable miracle that it has escaped complete destruction Whatever it enjoyed in the matter of thrift enterprise and a fair name has been, for the moment at least, destroyed by a wanton, fleaish mob actuated by jealousy and race hatred, which sought to wipe out the Negroes and their section of the city for the simple reason their prosperity and intelligent development was becoming too evident to suit the wishes of a certain element of whites.
Whole Truth Not Told
But little of the real truth has reached the outside world concerning the whole, horrible affair. The attempted rape incident has turned out to be nothing more than a discovery of the fact that a giddy white girl had be come infatuated with a comely young Negro lad scarcely more than twenty years of age. He was arrested at the instance of a group of white men and the charge of attempted rape was lodged against him. The boy is yet in jail but the girl has disappeared and the charge is about to fall to the ground.
It is true that shortly after the arrest of the young colored man a small number of Negro men gathered in the vicinity of the jail. Tulsa Negroes had decided that no lynching should take place in Tulsa without a blood sacrifice to prevent it. Humor had reached the colored section that a lynching would be attempted by the whites. When the colored men arrived in the vicinity of the jail they found a number of white men who immediately assumed a hostile attitude to ward the colored men. It was not long before trouble was started and the riot well under way. The Negroes fearing that their suspicions that a lynching was to be effected was about to be confirmed fought with great desperation and courage.
Within a short while the Negroes were outnumbered by the whites and they began an orderly retreat which carried them to the north side of the Frisco Railroad tracks where they made a stand so valiant and death dealing that a S. O. S. was sent out by the Chief of the local police for soldier help. In the meantime the casualties were mounting up with the odds in favor of the colored combat units. It was near midnight when the militia arrived on the scene. This turned the tide of battle to the whites again. The Negroes retreated. Then it was that the white hoodlums began to apply the torch to the business concerns of the colored people located along Greenwood Avenue.
Prominent Negroes Killed
It was but a short step from the business section to the better residential section in this locality. Here three prominent colored men met death defending their homes from the torch bearing mob. Dr. A. C. Jackson, the leading colored physician of the city, was killed on his doorstep and his well appointed home touched by the torch and totally destroyed by the fire that followed. The same fate befell Wesley Williams, the wealthiest Negro in Tulsa and the owner of the Dreamland Theatre, also destroyed by fire. Williams was reputed to be worth more than $200,000. Dr. John Wayne died fighting protecting his home which was destroyed by fire. John Wheeler, one of the oldest employees at the First National, was killed by a stray bullet while on his way to the bank Wednesday morning. No colored man in Tulsa was more highly respected than John Wheeler. He had been in the employ of the First National for a long number of years and was one of the familiar and popular figures of the city. He was buried with signal honors, the officials
SEN. McCOMICK SPEAKS TO 2,500
BILL TO STUDY WAYS BY WHICH MOB VIOLENCE CAN BE ENDED
Chicago, Ill., June 8th (Associated Negro Press)—Senator Medill McCormick spoke at a mass meeting of 2,500 Negroes recently, at the Trinity church, Prairie avenue and 30th street, on the anti-lynching bill which the senator in introduced in Congress.
"This bill seeks to create a commission to explore and study the ways and means by which mob violence can be ended," Senator McCormick said. "A printer's proof first stirred me when I was merely a boy, to the realization that there was a great wrong in this country which needed righting. The thot has been with me all these years, but the opportunity for me to start definite action on the matter has never come until the present time. "I expect a long fight, but I am going to see it thru if it takes me ten years or more. I find the election of President Harding proved an unlooked for help, as he is strongly opposed to lynchings. The black man is on trial now in Illinois. The attempt to force on him handpicked judges in the present election furnishes him with an opportunity to assert his political rights by voting coalition nonpartisan tickets. And the election of the coalition ticket judges will be a message to the men in the south that a fight is being waged for the black man's freedom in the north."
SAVANNAHAN AMONG ME
HARRY MEDICAL GRADUATES
Friends of Melton D. Bryant will be
interested to know that he was one of
the graduates of Meharry Medical
College this term. Dr. Bryant Is a
Savannahajah. After graduating from
haven Home school and Ga. State
College, he took a post graduate
course in chemistry and biology at
Knoxville College, before entering Meharry. It is understood that he will
be an internue in the hospital at Tuscegee Institute next term.
Thousands Made Homeless
The fire spread. White brushes
spilled the torch while the militia busied
itself with the disarming and arrest-
ing of such Negroes who were unlucky
enough to fall into their hands. In a
short period of time a great host of
defenseless women and children were
being driven helter skelter by the un-
ledged mob or made prisoners by the
militia and police. The new Mt. Zion
Baptist church, recently built at a cost
of $5,000 was partially destroyed by
fire. It was dedicated on the 10th of
last April and is said to be the largest
church structure owned by colored in
the State of Oklahoma.
Governor Robertson declared a state of martial law early Thursday morning. He was greatly affected by the condition of things which met him upon his arrival. He openly declared that a competent sheriff and a less cowardly chief of police would have put an end to the trouble without much effort. He has ordered an investigation and declares he is going to the bottom of the trouble to determine its origin and the causes which led up to the riot.
An elaborate plan for relief has been devised backed by the local Chamber of Commerce and prominent citizens. It is proposed to raise a fund of $500,000 at least for the purpose of rehabilitating the Negro section and thereby restore, as near as possible, normal if not better conditions for that end of the city where the colored people lived. The Chicago Tribune has contributed $1,000 to the fund.
Jacolous Main Cause For Flot
The main cause for the riot goes back of the arrest of the young colored man who provided the immediate reason for the outburst. Retail dealers in the main section of Tulsa have long been enrols of the business enterprises which the Negroes were sustaining out in their section. And them again while the colored people were doing the mental and domestic work in Tulsa they were making a more prosperous showing, on the whole, than the "poor whites." These situations added to the devilish work of agitators made it rather easy to start a conflagration of hate and prejudice whenever a match was applied to the strained conditions. The discovery of a love affair between a white girl and a colored youth furnished the match and Tulsa lies today stricken to its very heart.
SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY JUNE 11,1921
Declared Taft Has Set Our People Back Fifty Years In Political Progress.
Washington, D. C., June 8th (Associated Negro Press)—Former President William Howard Taft, may be named the next Chief Justice of the United States. Intimations that the President may name the former President comes from White House circles, and the reason given for an early decision is the desire of the President to eliminate as much contention for the high office as possible, in a state of affairs where he is exceedingly busy.
The suggestion that Mr. Taft may be appointed Chief Justice has hit the colored people of the country with a thud, and it may be safely said that the matter will not pass without a very lively protest based on what the people regard as just grounds. One leader said: 'As Chief Justice, Mr. Taft is impossible. He is a man who is generously willing to substitute personal impression policy for the letter and spirit of the law.' The opposition to Mr. Taft dates from the "Brownsville Affair," goes on down thru his administration as President, when he openly catered to the "Lily White" element of the South, changed the policy of all preceding Republican presidents in regard to ap, pointing colored citizens, and of at least one Democratic President, Grover Cleveland. Another prominent man remarked: "Taft set our people back fifty years in political progress." The criticism against him is the article last winter in a syndicate of dailies, in which he proceeded to suggest the policy of colored appointments under the Harling administration. Mr. Taft declared that everybody knows that the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments are "winked at" and yet it wouldn't be good policy to stir up trouble by enforcing them, nor, in his opinion, should there be appointments made that would irritate the South.
It is maintained that a Chief Justice should not be so constituted as to wink at the law. It is a singular and very interesting fact, that the late Chief Justice White was universally admired by colored Americans, altho appointed by Mr. Taft, was a southerner, ex-confederate soldier, and a Democrat. The opinions of Chief Justice White always followed the letter and spirit of the law, regardless of all other considerations.
President Harding may ultimately appoint former President Taft, but he will do so with the full information of how the majority of colored Americans feel on the subject. President Taft has taken an active interest in education among Negroes, particularly industrial, and especially in Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes.
MUCH INTEREST MANIFESTED IN CRUISE TO LIBERIA
Philadelphia, Pa., June 8th (Associated Negro Press)—Interest in the cruise to Liberia which will begin December 3, is becoming so widespread, that serious arrangements are under way, by the committee, to increase the number who may go from three hundred to four hundred. The cruise, of which Dr. W. H. Jernagin of Washington, is head, and Major William H. York, 529 S. 19th St., Philadelphia, is manager, is being arranged for by the American Travel Club of Baltimore, an organization that handles world tours. This announcement is made because of the impression, that has entered some places that the tour is under the direction of the Garrey movement. On this subject Dr. Jernagin said: "The Garrey movement has no official connection with the cruise whatever, although there are a number who are interested in that movement who will make the cruise as a matter of interest."
There has never been a tour of colored Americans planned on such a gigantic scale, and the great ocean liner that will be the home of the tourist during the trip has already been chartered, the luxuries and appointments of it being an inspiration.
Pres. Alexander Attend Detroit Meeting
The wind-up meeting of the membership drive of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will be held at St. Philip A. M. E. church, West Broad and Charles affects, next Wednesday night, June 15th at 8 o'clock.
A summary of the various activities being waged in the interest of the race through the New York office of the association will be given by President W. G. Alexander. This interesting report will deal with present efforts being made to have the national government recall the American authority from over the Haitian government; a report of the activities of the Haitian commission in its own behalf; the proposed Federal legislation affecting Lynching and Jim-crowism; an account of the association's work in the Williams' murder farm cases; the Dyer and Madden bills now pending before Congress; and a general account of various other matters now being handled by the national body with the Republican party leaders. These accounts will be given by President Alexander, who will soon depart for Detroit, where he will represent the Savannah branch in the annual summer conference of the branch leaders.

COLORED AUTO RACES ATTRACT HONKTENTION Many Out-Of-Town Visitors Expected RACES TO BE MAM-MOTH AFFAIR Sixteen Car, Six Motor-cycles and May Horses Already Entered For July Fourth
Everything is being rounded. Info shape for the colored automobile and motorcycle races which will be held on July fourth at the Fair Grounds. The event bids fair to be the biggest speed contest held by Negroes in this country, and indications are that the largest crowd in the history of the exposition grounds will be present to see the racing lings tear around the half mile track in their iron speedsters Interest is already highly worked up among the sixteen local auto drivers and motorcycle riders who have sent in their entry blanks and it will not be at all surprising if many track records are smashed by these dare devils. The racing program for the afternoon will consist of two motorcycle events and three automobile events. In addition to these there will be three horse races in which some of the fastest steeds in this county will take part. Following the races there will probably be ten round prize fight and a dance, these to be held in the Johnson building. A brass band has been hired for the day.
The committee in charge of the races, all prominent Negro business and professional men with Wm. McKelvey as chairman, held a meeting yesterday at which it was stated that two cars would be entered from Augusta, one from Macon and a probable entry from Atlanta. The committee decided on a general admission of 50 cents for adults and 25 cents for children with an additional 25 cents for grand stand seats.
It is understood that the advertising committee will start on a very aggressive campaign beginning Monday and will placard the towns within a radius of two hundred miles. By means of this it is thought that many out-of-town folk will be brought here for this, the first big automobile race ever attempted for Negroes. Next week there will be published the list of entries to date.
The men promoting the races announce the following officials and committees:
Stewart of Course—Wm. McKelvey.
Judges—W. S. Scott, J. C. Williams.
Starter and clerk—J. G. Lemon.
Timers—M. G. Jones, J. H Butler.
Official Photographer—J. W. Johnston.
Refreshments—A. Clarke, H. McKind, J. Williams.
Dance—J. H. Green, M. G. Jones, J. Williams.
Fight—J. H. Butler, J. G. Lemon, J. A. Webb, J. Williams.
Automobile entries—W. McKelvey, J. A. Webb, W. L. Tyler.
Motorcycle entries—J. A. Webb, J. H. Butler, Wm. McKelvey.
Horse race—A. Clark, A. S. Clarke, J. G. Lemon.
Ticket—A. B. Singfield, J. W. Jamerson, W. S. Scott.
Advertising, J. H. Butler, J. G. Lemon, M. G. Jones, J. C. Williams.
Grand Stand—J. H. Green, V. L. Perry.
tion will doubtless be on hand, as well as many people, men and women, who now appear to be stirred to action by the serious outbreaks being made against the race all over the country. It is expected that there will be a discussion of the pamphlet of Governor Dorsey and his Committee of Fifty leading Georgians. This pamphlet has stirred Georgia people like no other thing has ever done, and threatens to arouse one of the greatest controversies among the people of this state in its history. This meeting of the association will be very interesting, and a large crowd is expected.
NATIONAL GUARD SEGREGATION
Boston, Mass., June 5th (Associated Negro Press)—Demand upon the Adjutant General of Massachusetts to know whether the "Second Separate Tattalion of Infantry" of Massachusetts had been included in a regiment, as had been reported after a favorable forecast issued by The Associated Negro Press, revealed that the same National Guard Segregation initiated by the Wilson Administration was being continued under the Harding administration, with sole difference of a change of designation from "Pioneer Infantry" to Auxiliary Engineers."
The first reply read:
State House, May 24, 1921
Commonwealth of Mass., Adjt. Gen's Office
Mr. W. M. Trotter, Nat. Equal Rights League,
24 Cornhill, Boston
Dear Sir,—Replying to yours of the 20th inst. you are informed that the Second Separate Battalion of Infantry is not to be incorporated into or included in any Mass. regiment of the National Guard.
Under a ruling of the War Department it will be a seperate battalion but a part of the Mass. National Guard.
Very truly yours.
Jesse F. Stevens;
Brig. Gen. Adjt. Gen.
More important still was the following letter, constituting the "ruling of the War Department" mentioned above from Secretary of War Weeks to the Governor of Massachusetts.
1 Ruling by Secretary of War Weeks.
"War Dept., Washington (Copy)
May 10, 1921.
Hon. Channing Cox, Governor of Mass., Boston; Mass.
My dear Gov. Cox:
Mr W. A Matthews, colored lawyer of Boston has interviewed me on the subject of the recognition of a company of colored men in the Mass National Guard.
I find on investigation that the Bureau of Military Affairs has offered the recognition of this unit as Auxiliary Engineers, and the National Guard officers who are on duty in the War Department have determined for National Guard that it would be advisable to have mixed units, some white and some colored, and that is the reason why the organization cannot be recognized as infantry.
The recognition of this unit as Auxiliary Engineers, however, puts them in a class which is considered in the War Department as very high grade, the Engineers being specially selected troops.
Sincerely yours,
John W. Weeks, Sec. of Wor"

PRICELESS RECORDS RE-
Atlanta, Ga., June 5th (Associated Negro Press)—The mummy of the historical famous morganatic wife of the Egyptian king, Amenophila III, who died about 1421 B. C. has just been received at the museum of the Emory University here, one of the largest institutions of the Methodist Episcopal church, South. The mummy together with almost a carload of priceless records, was brought to this country by Dr. W. A. Shelton, professor of Semitic languages at Emory who spent a year in excavations of lost cities.
Queen Ti, name of the bride of Amenophis III, was famous in her time thru the fact that the king in marrying her, defied, the world by choosing for love and thereby, dissided a woman or rare beauty. Her tch. Amenophis; IV, abandoned the gods of his fathers and built altars to a new god—a one God.
HARDING ADMINISTRATION IS HANDICAPPED
Discrimination Continue in Washington
DEMOCRATS MAKE
THINGS HARD
Associated Negro Press Brings Segregation to Attention of Department of Justice.
Washington, D. C., June 8th (Associated Negro Press)—The progress of the Harding Administration is handicapped, as announced sometime ago by The Associated Negro Press, by the heritage of Democrats from the Wilson regime. The majority of these Democrats are of southern origin, who have brought to Washington certain fixed notions about "equal and exact, justice," as it refers to certain Americans.
Therefore, discrimination and segregation was a known fact, and it has been the general impression that all persons in the new administration would welcome information on conditions, in order that they might be corrected.
"Department of Justice."
It was thought that, like charity, which begins at home, the best place for justice to begin is in the Department of Justice. On April 11, 1921, The Associated Negro Press representative sent the following letter to Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty: "It is my faith in your high sense of justice, as well as in the interest of the racial group whom the Associated Negro Press is seeking to serve, that I would very respectfully bring to your attention the two un-American conditions alleged to exist in the Department of Justice, over which you so worthily preside, and which I believe you would not approve, but would immediately rectify, if the same were properly brought to your notice. "(1) Upon investigation, I find that there is even now in the south-western corner of the Department of Justice building, (Vermont Avenue and K street, this city) two water-closets, one plainly marked "For White Men" and it can be seen that the other was marked "For Colored Men"—although some of the lettering on the glass door containing the last mentioned sign has been partially washed off. I find that these signs were put up before you took charge of the Department of Justice, and furthermore, that Attorney-General Palmer also prescribed and ordered that only water-closets on certain specified floors (of said buildings were to be used by colored employees. I cannot but believe that the mere calling of your attention to the manifest racial discrimination will result in its immediate abolishment by you.
"(2) I further find, upon investigation, that practically all of the colored clerks and other colored employees (excepting laborers who necessarily work all over the building, and messengers stationed in the hall-ways) have been gradually segregated and are now all employed (with the exception of one cutter and developer in the Photostat Section) in the Division of Mall and Files. I understand that the chief sponsor of this un-American policy of segregation (or grouping clerks according to their race or color) is O. E*Stewart, who, I am informed, is a rank Democrat from Alabama, and who for eight years past has been serving as Chief Clerk in the Department of Justice.
"I want to be accurate and fair in all of my statements issued thru the Associated Negro Press (serving 110 Negro newspapers throut the country) and I feel confident that you will rightly interpret this frank and respectful inquiry."
April 22, twelve days later, the following letter was received from W. F. Glubs, who signed it as "Private Secretary and Assistant to the Attorney General:"
"I will bring to the attention of the Attorney General your recent communication at the earliest possible moment. The great rush of work in the department accounts for the delay." The Associated Negro Press representative made the following reply to Mr. Gibbs, April 20, giving a reasonable length of time for a reply from

COL. JOHN H. DEVEAUX
June 9, 1969
PRONOUNCING SENTENCE Henry Lincoln Johnson, national commiteeeman from Georgia, made a hard fight against the reduction of the number of Southern delegates to the National Republican convention, but without avail.
Hereafter Georgia will have fewer delegates to the national convention, as will others of the states of the South where the Republican party is in the minority. The power of these states in the convention, in influencing convention action, will be reduced pro tanto. Representation will be based more largely upon the actual vote polled by the party in the various districts of the state, and those districts which poll less than the minimum required for one delegate will have no representation.
This will tend to place the local state Republican power in the hands of the "illy whites", inasmuch as the few sparsely settled counties in North Georgia which vote Republicans have little or no Negro population, and while the greater majority of Republicans in the state are Negroes these are scattered all over the state and are not centered or grouped according to any district lines, and hence may not be able to meet the requirements for representation as the northern sections of the state may.
of course this re-appointment and the results which but naturally ensue, may serve as a stimulus to Negro registration everywhere, and ought to, so that a sufficient numerical strength may be built up in the various districts where Negroes live in large numbers to warrant the desired representation.
Negroes must take warning, look to the laurels we have, and take the steps necessary to secure the little we have; and to add to it. Let every Negro man and woman register so as to muster the voting strength which will command power.
NEGRO AUTO RACES
Savannah Negro business men, always alert and to the fore in enterprise, are going to stage the first real automobile race meet we have ever heard of. Entries from all over the South, in amateur ranks, are being in vittel, and together with local drivers these will provide a big show of speed and thrills for the great crowd which will assemble at the exposition grounds on July Fourth. It is going to be a real show. There is no earthly reason why our own people should not engage seriously in every line of endeavor, enterprise and competition which other people engage in. It takes a well-rounded activity in all phases of sports, as well as in the more dignified enterprises, to make a full-fledged, normal, people. Our people must provide autobots and aviators just as much so as that we have furnished the world some of history's greatest sports in other lines.
The Negro race has produced George Dixon, Joe Gans, Sam Lamford, Jack Johnson, all famed ex-stars of the prize-ring and every one of them of championship caliber. Dixon, Gans and Johnson wore the world's crowds in their lines; and Harry Willis is now pronounced by many the peer of the world's greatest fighters.
The race has produced such track stars as John Taylor, Howard Drew, Hl Wheeler, Sam Ransom, Sol Butler and Young, who vied with the world's greatest track men at home and abroad. These men have brought glory to the race on many a battlefield.
The football galaxy has embraced Lester Pollard, who white wearing the colors of Brown University, brought Harval and Yale peers to defeat. There are many other Negroes in football, baseball and track sports who have illuminated the pages of sport history.
All this is but to show that there is a place in all these lines of the world's work for our strong, hale, game youngsters to perform, and it would be derelict of us not to hold out these possibilities to the ambitious youth of our race. Success in these lines when in competition with the youth of all races and nations, brings respect and rating to the race. All of us, and all the good sports of the world, are proud of Gans and Wills and Bullock and Pollard and Matthews; and we are going to find many more youngsters in the future to match their skill dexterity and brains against that of their competitors in other races, to uphold the splendid record of the past. And with the approaching auto races, motorcycle races, horse, races and other sports to be held at the fair grounds on Independence Day, our people are making a beginning that is to lead our folks into fields of tremendous and magnificent possibilities for the individuals who enter, and for the people whom they represent.
Excursions from all over the state will come into Savannah on that day, and the result of the meet will be heralded far and wide over the country for the inspiration and encouragement of thousands of full-blooded Negro youth in the land.
This movement opens the way for Negro people to participate in all that the Tri-State Fair Association stands for in development of our common community and section. Under more favorable conditions of participation and co-operation than have been extended in the past, Negro farmers, workers, and citizens generally, will be willing to line up enthusiastically behind the fair movement, and our support will be felt both in the quality of exhibition which the fair will offer and in the next gate receipts.
THE FAME OF TULSA
The bloody outbreak at Tulsa, Oklahoma, resulting in the loss of the lives of over twenty Negroes, about ten whites, the injury of scores of Negro people, the terror and fenzy of thousands of men, women and children for many days and nights, the destruction of millions in property mostly belonging to colored people, and now the failing and punishment of many others, is not unlike all others of famous riots and race-clashes in its causes and effects if it be different in the magnitude of its horror and bloodliness.
Its causes lie deep in the cultivated prejudices of the commoner folk, and these causes are both social and economic, though more largely social than otherwise. The whites are victims of their own folly, and the Negroes are victims of the whites.
There is a custom and a law for the white man; there is another custom and law for the black man. The government itself is the first offender in mis-government, because, down to the earliest detail of ordinance and practice, it gives the benefit of its bounties to the whites; it protects them and their interests; whereas, on the other hand, it withholds from its Negro citizens what it might do in the way of civic help, opportunity and protection. The Negro is driven away from the government's good grace, and made distrustful by what he sees by what he feels of the law, and by what deprivation he suffers by failing to get a full man's chance. The white man is taught to feel that the government is his defender, the provider of opportunity, the protector of his interests and his people.
All, black and white alike, bear their due portion of the government's burdens of taxation; the white man has a voice in the functions; the Negro is helpless. Without a basis of political power, there can be no power in citizenship; and there is no citizenship without political possibilities. The whites get the work of government; they get the benefit of governmental development of public service and improvement. The Negro gets nothing but a chance to work where the white man does not wish it. Besides this, there is nothing in the civic life which comes purely as an attribute of citizenship.
Too long, all of us, both black and white, have deluded ourselves or tried to do so or pretended that we were deluded, into believing that this nation can remain "half slave and half free," that we can live here together under dual standards of justice and law enforcement. Leading white men and black, in an impossible hope, by language and wield unnaturalness, have time and again set up certain codes of co-operation and mutual relationship between the races. These have not been founded on frankness, naturalness, logical reasoning and Christianity. As laid down and undertaken, these codes have assigned specific thought and view and action for the Negro, but have left the white man to determine informally and according to his own notion what his view or conduct may be under given circumstances. But this method, far from being a panacea or even an expedient for the ill, has intensified the troubles;
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JUNE 11, 1921
it is unfortunate that such men, black and white, should ever have had the right or opportunity to undertake to determine such questions; and more unfortunate still that they are not all out of the way.
There is just one way; and that is according to justice and absolute right. There can be no two standards in the market-place or in the courts; there can be no two plans of education in the common schools; there can be no two sets of qualifications for the function of full citizenship. The Negro citizen, honorable and capable and thrifty; must eventually exercise the full function of citizenship. He must have the right to vote; the chance to serve his government if other citizens desire it; equal benefits at the government's hands in public advantage and advancement; equal opportunity before the law; equal advantages for his children; equality according to his merits as a law-abiding, respectable citizen everywhere. This has not been.
When riots break out, Negroes are not only slaughtered ruthlessly, but are thrown in jail in large numbers; the police or military authorities called into play asserts itself as against Negroes; Negroes engaged in rioting are the only ones convicted, after" mutual combat"; and finally other Negroes are told that they must prevent the causes which precipitate outbreaks, in other words, all Negroes are made to suffer and eventually held responsible if one Negro is charged with crime or attempt crime.
If justice never reigns, there will

CLARKE-THOMAS
Beautiful and impressive was the marriage Monday evening of Miss Lucile Maymee Clarke to Edgar. Sims Thomas, which occurred at the home of the bride's mother, 520 East Gaston street at 9 o'clock.
The house was beautifully decorated with ferns, Easter lilies, roses and hydranges. To the strains of Lochin grin's wedding march, rendered by Mrs. T. J. Goodall, the bride entered the parlor on the arms of Malvin McNichols, by whom she was given in marriage. The ceremony was per, formed by the Rev. T. J. Goodall, pastor of P. A. B church.
The bride wore a gown of oyster white georgette, elaborately decorated in crystal beads, over bridal satin. Her vell of silk tulle was worn with a coronet outline of real lace, high in the front, and the crown filled in with orange blossoms. It was draped wing fashion and clung with small clusters of orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses and lilies of the valley.
While the ceremony was being performed "With all of my Heart and Soul" was softly played by Mrs. Goodall.
Mrs. Carrie Barclay, matron of honor, wore rainbow colored taffeta and chantilly lace and silver slippers. Her corsage bouquet was of russell roses and terns.
Miss Mabel Clarke, sister of the bride and maid of honor, wore pink georgette beautifully beaded. Her flowers were pink carnations.
Talmadge Bellgood was Mr. Thomas best man, and Howard Jordan, the groomman.
Mrs. Clarke, the mother of the bride, wore gray voile embroiled. Mrs. Nelson Parley, sister of the bride, wore pink crepe-de-chine draped.
The reception was held at the Catholic Hall. The popularity of the couple was shown by the many valuable presents received, among them being a ghost of silver from the bride's sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs Nelson Darley; a silver service from the groom's brother; a set of china from the waiters of Savannah Hotel and a handsome art square from the bellmen.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas will be at hope to their friends at the home of the bride's mother, after June 11th.
