2 CONFERENCE HELD TO CONSIDER TINKHAM LEGISLATION TO ENFORCE THE FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT VOL. XXXVI Many Surprising Developments Expected CRISIS PRECIPITATED BY MANY Problems of Race Question Regarded By Congress As Hotter Than Those of Irish or Jews. Washington, D.C., July 13th (Associated Negro Press) - With the Harding Administration approaching the half year mark, the people throughout the country are beginning to "take the measure" of achievements and to see whether the "big show" is living up to advanced publicity. In his campaign speeches, and even since his inauguration, Mr. Harding has himself sounded the term of human rights on the highest plane. There have been some setbacks to the expectations of the populace, but the people have not completely lost faith. The President has given assurance to those who have recently discussed matters with him, that he will keep the faith. Congressman Martin B. Madden, of the first district of Illinois in Chicago, has informed The Associated Negro Press that the bill against lynching has been endorsed by the Judiciary committee of the House, and that the same will soon be reported to the floor. It is Congressman Madden's opinion that the bill will easily pass the House and Senate, and that the President will sign it. Congressman, Tinkham continues to force the issue on the consideration of means to enforce the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. Floor leader Mondeil has done all in his power to block the consideration, but sentiment is growing in favor of looking into the subject. Many Congressmen sharply with there were same one way out, but with 1922 election coming on, there must be action. The problems coming out of the Race question are regarded by Congress as much better than the ones involving the Irish, Catholics and Jews, and anyone herebenot wilt tell you that these subjects cause great amnigrance. The appointment of Henry Lincoln Johnson as Recorder of Deaths has opened up a big new line of discussion. Col. Johnson has all along insisted that he did not wish a position. However, it is understood that the Administration regarded Johnson as the "one best." beef" to initiate the Administration policy of recognition, which for some time was foundering about on the shoes, until the folks back home let it be known that there should be something done. The next few weeks will, without question bring some surprising developments. There are movements on in several cities in several parts of the country calculated to make politicien crimes in all high places set up and take notice. The Harding Administration and the Republican National Committee are cognizant of the facts, and The Savannah Tribune. Japan Condemns American Lynching Sentiments Shown in Four Column Editorial Recently Published "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced that Japanese condemnation of American teachings had been received in the form of a four column editorial in the Asian Review, May-Japan. "Americans yoformly claim to be the champions of justice and humanity," says the editorial, "yet they do not institute to trample upon these very principles and perpetrate the foust dead ever conceived." The crime referred to is the burring alire, at stake, of Henry Lowery, at Noten, Arkansas, on January 25, 1921. The matter quoted by the Aynan Review was press publicly matters out to the foreign press of the world by the New York office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "It is an Indelible stain", the editorial continues, "on the name of America that in this enlightened age such crimes should take place publicly and the offenders go unpunished. It gives to demonstrate the utter culliness of hearts of the American public. Lynching is possible in the United States because, the spirit of America is in favor of it. If this were not true, this foul crime would never have grown to its present proportions nor would any of the more than three thousand lynchings during the past thirty-two years have taken place." The editorial concludes by saying that creation of a strong public opinion throughout the world will be necessary "In order to bring sufficient pressure to bear on the American government to adopt effective measures at once so as to make it impossible for the American male to resort to those burdous excesses." U.B.of A. Annual Thanksgiving Success In spite of the inclementy of the weather a large number of members and friends of the U. B. of A. of the local district assembled at their headquarters, and observed their annual Thanksgiving Services The literary and musical parts of the program were well rendered and were heartily enjoyed by all present. The Master of Ceremonies, C. H. MeIntosh, S. G. S. so handled the occasion that those present were hardly conscious of the fact that a severe storm was raging on the outside. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, JULY 16,1921 Pres. S.J. Ross Dies On Ship to America The recent arrival in this country of Mrs. Samuel John Ross, widow of the late President S. J. Ross of the College of West Africa, Monrovia, LIberla, brings to mind the untimely demise announced by cable of the end of one of the most useful and versatile members of his race. President Ross during his lifetime was identified with the Negro population of three widely separated parts of the world, and in each was an outstanding and constructive personality. He was born in British England, South Ankara, September 19th, 1878. He came to the United States in 1920 and entered Lincoln University. During his college career, he enlisted those qualities for leadership which have made his name well known among his people of two continents. He received the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Diritury in 1907, at which time he was president and valedictorian of his class. During his career at Lincoln he won three gold medals for oratory. In 1908 he entered the college of Physicians and Surgeons of Chicago. He married Miss Pearl F. Thomasson, of Chicago, in March, 1913, and in May of that year sailed for Porto Rico to finish his medical preparation with the practical work of an intern at Yauco under the direction of one of his former professors who had charge of several dispensaries there. In 1915, after two years' work, the ill health of Mrs. Ross caused their return to the United States, where Dr. Ross practiced medicine until 1918, when he was appointed medical missionary to Liberia by the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In recognition of his ability, he was soon appointed President of the College of West Africa, Monrovia; which position he was holding at the time of his death. The college grew rapidly under Dr. Ross' able administration from an enrollment of 220 to 356. In collaboration with Mrs. Ross, the president organized the Young Women's Christian Association and the Young Men's Christian Association as well as an athletic association patterned after those of American colleges. These organizations were the first of their kind in Liberia and attracted widespread and favorable comment. The Y. W. C. A. of Liberia has recently been received into complete affiliation with the World organization of that name, owing to the ill health of Mrs. Ross, a furlough was granted the couple by the Board of Foreign Missions under which they worked, and it was aboard the steamship San Carlos that Dr. Ross was striken, and passed away a week later. He was buried at Santa Cruz Tenerife, Canary Islands. Mrs. Ross has recently arrived in the United States. According to officials of the Methodist Board, of Foreign Missions, Dr. and Mrs. Ross occupied high rank among missionaries. They took a prominent and constructive part in the Methodist mission program for Liberia, which maintains thirty-one mission schools with sixty-five teachers and an enrollment of several thousand pupils, many of them natives of the interior bush country, where education is the primary need in spreading American civilization and Christianity. FEDERATION WO- MEN CLUB MEETS Many Interesting Speakers Were Present The Southeastern Federation of Colored Women's Clubs planned at Daytona and organized at Tuskegee July 1920 held its first biennial session in Atlanta from June 29 to July 1st, with representatives from ten states and with nearly one hundred delegates. There were also those who brought greetings from the Young Woman's Christian Association, the Interracial Committee, the Travelers Aid Association, the Georgia Association for the Advancement of Education Among Negroes, the Neighborhood Union of the National and the Parent Teachers Association of Georgia The Grand Worthy Treasurer, Mrs. Willey G. Hill, of Georgia was also in attendance. It was a splendid group of earned women seeking development along all lines, watching the progress of education, civic life and welfare movements, studying questions of government and far seeing legislation. It was a great gathering and splendid results are to be hoped for not only in our cities and towns but in the far away rural districts Mary McLeod Bethune, the president, is the great leader of this organization and the women love to follow where she leads. Loyalty, sympathy, kindness and patricia are among the many virtues that bind the women to her. They love to follow her and the finial are gently pressed into service. She is a great big hearted woman with an unselfish spirit that opens the door to all who will enter into the work of regeneration. Mrs. Marlon Wilkinson, Vice President at Large of the National and State President of South Carolina, whose ability and charming manners are well known, brought greetings from Mother National. Mrs. Charlotee Hawking Brown, our gifted speaker from North Carolina, Mrs. Blanche Beaty of Louisiana, Mrs. Blackwell, Va.; Mrs. Lewis, Tenn., with keen foresight and earnestness spoke on most of the questions brought before the body as old Mrs. Rebecca Styles Taylor, the efficient corresponding secretary, Mrs. George Williams, Mrs. Whitjohn, Mrs. Garey, Mrs. Walker of Ga.; Mrs. Keyser of Fla.; and Mrs. Jackson of Ala. and others Mrs. Louise Fordham Holmes attracted attention whenever she nrose because of her womanliness and persuasive speech. Mrs. Holmes' report of her struggled to keep the Herald going showed heroic efforts and she was assured of the loyal support of the organization for the next two years. The time given for conference with the representatives of the Inter-racial Committee, with that noble soul, Mrs. Luke Johnson as leader, was well spent. All listened most attentively to the interpretation of the work of the Committee as given by Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Carey and Mrs. Brown of North Carolina, Mrs. Hope of Georgia and Mrs. Wilkinson of South Carolina. As we listened we grasped-awed the situation, as was evidenced by the quick response to the appeals for funds for putting into print and sending out for all people to read and know the most feelings, struggles, and hurts in the souls of black folks. Miss Ruffin of the Young Women's Christian Association gave instances of conversions and good will that showed themselves. (Continued on Page 7) Resolutions Passed N. A.A.C.P.Conference The National Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, today made public the complete text of the resolutions submitted to the twelfth annual conference in Detroit by the resolutions committee and passed in open meeting. The committee was composed of Harry E. Davies, colored, member of the Ohio State legislature: Dr W. E. B. Dub- bols, Mary M. B. Tulgert, George W. Gros, J. D. Moses, Shelby J. Davi- son, James Weldon Johnson, George L. Vaughn and E. B. Henderson. The resolutions are as follows: The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in annual conference assembled calls the attention of the nation to Tulsa, Oklahoma. The cause of the riot was alleged crime which never occurred. The Negroes were not the aggressors save in the gene that they fought to uphold law, prevent trenching, and protect their homes. We do not know what secret organizations may exist in Tulsa among whites or blacks, but we do know that our Branches in Oklahoma stand with us for law and order and open legal effort to uplift the Negro and put down the mob. We are glad to commend the splendid action of the governor and the quick measures of local relief; we now urge legal action against the corrupt city government for civil damages in not protecting the law abiding citizens against gist; and we urge that the State demand the criminal prosecution of the rioters. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People pledges its every effort to secure citizenship for the convicted soldiers of the twenty-fourth Infantry now in the Leavenworth prison, and calls the attendant of the Executive arm of the government to the extemating circumstances which provoked their of fense. As an Association subsiding fully to the principles of law enforcement, we hereby "heartily and sincerely commend" the activity of the Department of Justice in the investigation and prosecution of ponage cases, and we urge upon Attorney General Daugherty the necessity for continued energetic action to the end that slavery and involuntary servitude except as punishment for crime shall disappear forever from the Land of the Free. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, representing 307 branches, 179,000 members, in forty-four states, and speaking in benefit of eleven millions of people, strongly endorses House Resolution No. 115, introduced by Congressman Tinkham, asking for an investigation of disfranchisement. A free and honest ballot is the basis of democracy. And this country owes it to its traditions to stop the "rotten burrough" system of the South. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, representing 307 branches, 120,000 members, in forty-four states, and speaking in behalf of eleven millions of people, urges the Judicial Committee of the United States House of Representatives now in charge of the Dyer Anti-lynching Bill to expedite this bill and report it favorably to the House. The colored people of the United States demand action and not reasons for delay. If this nation has not the power to stop lynching, it has not the power to exalt. The National Association believes that colored men should make every effort to see that colored women register and vote at each election, and conversely, we urge colored women to induce colored men to respect and use their right of franchise. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS HOLD MOST SUCCESSFUL AND HARMONIOUS SESSION EVER WITNESSED South Ledd Way In Business Among Negroes Commission Merchant Business Soon To Be Launched In North Pittsburg, Pa., July 14—(Continental Press Service)—In discussing the possibilities, for big business in the north Attorney Robert L. Vann, editor of, The Competitor, says: "Big business is going north." Continuing, Mr. Vann says: "For the past decade it has been no unusual thing to seize Negroes operating big businesses in almost every city where the numerical strength of the colored people warrants the effort. New York, Pittsburg, Chicago and Philadelphia boast of Negro banks and trust companies. This was not until the banking business among Negroes in the south proved successful. The southern Negroes led the way. His northern brother has followed. We are now about to launch a Commission Merchant business in one of our larger northern cities. This is said to be one of the very best paying businesses known to the country. With southern farmers $0 supply the produce, there is no reason why such a business should not take root immediately and prove highly successful. And there are other activities which find ready support and today we have steam laundries, bakeries, stores, in fact almost all of the business activities we are able to finance. "All this means progress. The kind of progress the Jew has made under the greatest hauddicap. It means the branching out of a people just learning its first lessons in self-confidence. It means the beginning of money making and money saving. Our boys and girls may look to, the future with some confidence and assurance. Employment will be made possible, and educational incentives increased." White Republicans Split with Negroes "Lily Black" Convention To Be Held In Richmond September 5th Norfolk, Va. July 14-Three Negroes sat as accredited delegates in the Republican state convention here today, although several contested delegations of Negroes were barred from the convention. Police guarded the doors to the convention hall and turned away the Negroes under the leadership of Joseph R. Pollard of Richmond, who was a candidate for United States senator on the Republican ticket last year. The Negroes, who had been chosen by their own people after the white Republicans in their own communities had refused them places in the white delegation, immediately held a meeting and announced that a "illy black" convention would be held in Richmond Sept. 5th to nominate a state ticket of their own. Pollard, in a statement made at the convention door when he was refused admittance, declared that the Negroes it is illegally constituted, the colored had, "botted" the convention "because voters not having been given a chance to register their views on the selection of delegates in many cities." their excellent quarters; the Board of high School Auditorium; and the Detroit Branch for its thoughtful arrangements. The conference especially appreciates the old which the colored papers of the country and the colored churches and the pastors have given in making the conference so widely known thus insuring so great a measure of success.

FORTUNES OF DEMOCRATIC New York, N. Y., July 13th (Associac- ply Negro Press)—United States Senator, David L. Walsh of Massachusetts, told the Tammany Society in its Fourteenth street headquarters on the Fourth of July the fortunes of the Democratic Party have seldom been at such a low obb as they appear to be today. He said it was time for plain speaking, and demanded that Democ- rates face facts. Senator Walsh spoke at the Tammany Independence Day --- The vote in November was the answer to an acceptance of a campaign in which foreign issues rose above domestic issues. The result, declared the Massachusetts Senator, was staggering defeat. "Now we stand rejected at home and abroad," he added, "in the most amenable of all predicaments, that of the political party inherently possessed with high principles, but hearing the penalty for having forsaken them." Refusing to accept the explanation of many Democrats, that defeat was the result of a narrow, selfish, un-American decision, Senator Walsh insisted that if Democrats adopted a new program, the position of the party was not altogether hopeless.

Hubbs NP pastor. On last Sunday Dr. Jones addressed a large mass meeting in the interest of the convention. Many prominent ministers were present.

"LINK" JOHNSON NOMINATED FOR RECORDED OF DEEDS Washington, D. C. July 6th (Associated Negro Press)—Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Atlanta, Ga., has been nominated for Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia. President Harding in sending the name of Mr. Johnson to the Senate created a distinct surprise in political circles and none was more surprised than Col. Johnson himself. He has let it be dutely understood that he was not a candidate for office and that under no circumstances would he resign as a member of the Republican National Committee. To the A. N. P. representative Col Johnson said: "I knew nothing of this and am not yet sure I will accept. I must first talk the matter over with my loved ones here in my family. My desire is to be of the greatest service to my people and I will yield nothing in principle for public possession." A group of southern Democratic senators have announced that they will oppose the confirmation but it is certain their opposition will not prevail. Washington and the country are watchfully waiting for action upon the Registrar of Treasury. Some wise, politically, profess to feel that the insurgent movement threatened by 100 Republican congressmen and led by Rep. Ansorge may cause a revival of interest by the powers that be.

MASONIC NEWS If all Masons in this country will resolve and live—daily live—the true principles and teachings of Freemasonry for the next five years the whole heart-acking, restless and fighting world will quiet down to calm and peaceful living and every man will be working for—not only his own—but the public good. All men will be glad to be of service to each other and there will be no wars nor strikes, industry will flourish and every body will be Masonry. If really incarcerated into the lives for its disciples, can accomplish this end without any cost or blood-shed. It seems to us that you and I ought to begin right now—if we have not already done so, we live our Masonry. What do you say, dear brother Mason? Game on! The Master Mason, Kansas City, Mo. One of the finest things which any Masonic lodge can do is to honor its old members with dinner parties, receptions and other little affairs which make the heart glad. It is a compliment to any lodge to have on its roll a member who has given forty or fifty years of continuous devotion to it, and when any Masonic lodge honor one of the old patrons in Freemasonry, it is simply honoring itself—Ultimae Freemason. Genuine Masonry can only exist where a sufficient number of wholesouled, generous and intelligent men can be found, who are willing to band themselves together for the purpose of mutual improvement in all that is required to make a good citizen. Masonry is not an insurance society and Masonic relief is not a business transaction, but a matter of pure benevolence. The stronger the Masonic Fraternity grows in membership, the greater will be the demand for admission, and with this is carried a high responsibility in the matter of carefully safeguarding everyone who knocks at the door of the lodge. Let there be light is the motto of Masonry. The lodge is your Masonic home. Do not neglect it. Hospitality is a Masonic virtue. Welcome the visiting brethren Religion first. Masonry next. Do not make Masonry your religion. Let no bitterness arise between Masons. Love is the great conciliator. A cowan means, literally, one of the protane, or uninitiated. It is derived from a Greek meaning "Dog"—from the inquisitive and foul habit of that animal. In the symbolic language the East, dogs and swine are always associated with uncleminess. In Scotland a cowan is in operative masonry, is a workman building "drystone dykes" or walls with out mortar. Technically, a cowan is one who has not been admitted or initiated. The impression on and the rights of the candidate must have first consideration in all degree work. The conductors and others participating and reciting the ritual should focus their attentions upon him, first and last. It is not for a worker to take liberties with the ritual, for that has been worked out with all possible earnestness through the ages, and by the best Masoule minds, and conceived. Indeed is the individual that thinks he can improve upon it—as blunt and futtle as his product would be ludicrous in comparison. The two millions that how at the Mascotte altar in the United States have all gone the same route, have all been impressed by the same ritual. When the work has been done well, their Mascotte future has been all the brighter and their advancement matter rapid, wore pearly, they have lost interest, been disgusted, and relapsed in the vast number that have no more craft interest than to pay their lodge dues. Nothing should be permitted to interfere with the presentation of degree work in the ways that are indulged—Masonle Standard. Masonry assumes the existence of The Great Architect of the Universe; but here the Masonry stops. It does not attempt to define nor to particularize; but leaves each individual Mason free from his own conclusions from the facts of his individual experience. Write your own name with love, mercy and kindness of the hearts of those about you and you will not be forgotten.—Masonle Bulletin. RALLY BEING MADE Asbury Park, N.

PILMIBLE OF FIRST IN SERVICE THE ASSOCIATED INDUCTION PRESS NEGRO PETIT JURORS NEGRO PETIT JURORS We have already spoken in these columns on the matter of Negro men as petit jurors in the courts in this jurisdiction. We have expressed the general satisfaction and increased faith of our people in the corresponding good faith and confidence of those who, by a just and fair application of the laws of the land, have made this service possible. And, while such a call to service is the right and duty of every citizen and ought not be faken with any special notice, the absence of Negro men from it for so long a time makes their reappearance noteworthy. We doubt if anywhere else in the state of Georgia, if indeed elsewhere in the whole South, would one be able to witness Negro men in the jury box sitting to pass upon the life and liberty of a white man charged with murder; and yet that is exactly what we saw in the Superior court this week. It marks an unusual advance in citizenship functioning for our people, when Negro men are selected for such grave responsibility, and are able to discharge that responsibility and duty fearlessly, conscientiously and intelligently in accordance with the law and the facts. It means that the leadership of our city reposes a confidence and a trust in our best citizens, and believes that colored men are capable of discharging the high functions of jurymen. It means that the officers of the courts, the bench and the bar, are willing to risk the administration of justice in the hands of colored men. A large number of colored men have been called for jury service during the past several terms of the court; and it is encouraging to note that they are credited with having given good honest service. We believe that the type of men called have been and will always be willing to do their fully duty, untrammelled and unmoved by racial considerations or other influences; because it is just this type of Negro who so much longs for and desires equal justice and fairness, irrespective of such vulgar considerations, and in order to secure that justice and fairness will be willing to first and always practice what he preaches. We know that such men as will be chosen are far above all untoward influences, save only the dictates of law and the highest motives of even justice. And we wish to impress the courts here that we have supreme faith in the fitness of the men called to serve them, and of our unwavering confidence in their high sense of justice and fairness and of their courage to do the right. A SPLENDID SHOWING The showing which was made by the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias meeting in this city this week was splendid and noteworthy. The meeting brought to Savannah several thousands of its most respectable and eminent citizens, men and women; several hundreds of these being and representing the business and industrial power of the state. Then there were the business men, the professional men and skilled workers along all lines. Taking all in all, we have had in our city the bone and fiber of representative Georgia Negroes. And the showing in financial power of the organization, and in strength of membership, as indicated by the reports of the several officers and departments, is nothing short of marvelous. From an ordinary organization a few years ago, the Knights have grown into one of the most powerful bodies in the state and South. Its influence in the affairs of the state and in the communities where the various units and lodges are located, has been tremendously in favor of progress and advancement along all worthy lines. The splendid corps of officers, in both divisions were re-elected, as they should have been, on the strength of the showing they have made; and they will doubtless continue to push the affairs of the organization forward successfully. We enjoyed their splendid meetings; their uniformed ranks, their parades. They inspired us all to harder work for the future development of our people and our organizations. We with the Knights and Calanthians a most successful ensuing year and we extend them the invitation to come again, and as often as they feel like it. LIFE'S SUN There's a pleasure in living and telling In doing whatever we can, Whatever our drift, if we only can lift, And enlighten our fellow-man. There is rapture in dying and dreaming Of the things our hands have done. While the bark from afar, carries us over the bar. LILY WHITES ARE NOW VERY AGGRGESSIVE Made Up Of Outlawed Democrats OFFICIAL AXE HAS FALEN Word.. Comes.. Republi can National Committeen Not To Eliminate Negroes. Washington, D. C., July 6th Associated Negro Press)—"Stop thief! Stop thief!" may well be the slogan of the day, so far as political progress and action are concerned. There is an element in the country, for the present most active in the Republican party, that is endeavoring to steal everything in sight. Their petty and grand larceny are not, confined to the bronzed Americans, but woe to such if the said element has its official way. This element, which goes under the general cognomen of "illy white," is very aggressive now. It is mostly made up of outlawed Democrats, and is seeking to show the "sleep point" to the "Powers that be," where the colored Americans should be politically electrocuted. They are reckoning without their hosts, "how-some-ever," as Bert Williams might say. Colored Americans, in the face of big odds, are exhibiting a degree of grim grit that is ever commanding the respect of their enemies. Democratic Senators and members of Congress have informed The Associated Negro Press representative that they think the time is not far distance when larger numbers of colored people will vote in the South. There is this situation; so great has been the "hub-hub" of reaction since the meeting of the Republican National Committee when representation in conventions was cut in the South that a "new line of dope" has gone out. It is this wise. "The Republicans are not going to desert colored Americans, don't think so. That cutting down is but a forerunner of cutting down representation in Congress." That sounds pregnant with possibilities. It is plausible enough to make all concerned sit up and take notice. Especially is this with the never ending efforts of Congressman Tinkham of Massachusetts to "show up the country" on the subject of disfranchisement. The official axe has fallen. It has fallen hard and with a distinct thud on the political necks of Democrats and backs-lidden Republicans; so hard has the fall been that there is "weeping and wailing and smashing of teeth" Narrow minded political chieftains, near chieftains and hundreds of less and lesser lights, have seen Uncle Sams ghost walk for the last time. They have been sipping from the public milk bottle for eight years, and they have had a wonderful time. They have played all the little and big jokes that they and his Satanic Majesty could "knave in" on the coloured American. They did their worst, and now it is "the end of a perfect day." General Charles G. Dawes, of Chicago, who was selected by President Harding to get the new budget system under way, and to be the official heads man, has wielded a mean and wicked axe. He started right off in his characteristic way by telling everybody, from the President down, that he would have to have a "free hand." He was given it, hence the slaughter. It has been stated by those in authority, and given to The Associated Negro Press representative for information to the people, that there is going to be a new deal; and one that none need to drope their heads about. Starting with party organization, the word comes from the Republican National Committee that they who think they are going to carry on party organization by eliminating colored Americans, have another thought coming. This expression was backed up recently by a telegram from the new National Chairman, Mr. Adams, to members of so-called "Militant Republican Organization" in Atlanta, Georgia. In substance the telegram stated that the inspirational meeting held in the Kimball House, Atlanta, where colored people are in no way permitted to go except as servants, was very much in disfavor with the Committee, as well as others in power. That word fell heavy on the hearts of the militants, and they have been since seeking to explain. But Chairman John Adams seems to be proceeding along the line of "come clean or stay away." A Strange Situation There is a strange situation existing in political circles. There is more activity at this time than there is at some elections. The activity is not for jobs nearly so much as for the chance to have citizenship rights. On this matter of a "Man's chance" in the battle of life, there is only one idea—Justice. Frank A. Linney of North Carolina, who was opposed by colored citizens of that state on the ground of certain campaign documents sent out in the 1920 election, has denied the authorship of the specific circular mentoned, and declared that he is not for disfranchising colored citizens. The hearing on the Linney case took place before a sub-committee of the Judiciary Committee of the United States Senate. The members of the Committee were Senator Ernst, of Kentucky, chairman; Senator Cummins, of Iowa and Senator Overman, of North Carolim. More than two hundred white and colored citizens from North Carolina and other states had gathered for the hearing. Senator Erust informed The Associated Negro Press that, much to his regret, the rules of the Senate made it necessary for the session to be secret. However, a committee of five, presenting the citizens of North Carolina, with Dr. Suggs-President of Livingstone College as chairman, together with attorneys, were permitted to remain at the hearing. The North Carolina citizens selected as their attorneys Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson of Atlanta and Atty. William C. Matthews of Boston. On the face of the so-called Linney circular, the judiciary committee, sitting as a whole, had voted eight to two to reject Linney. However, in the hearing, Linney went on record stating that the circular was signed by another member of the Committee during a sick spell. This man Mickens, who confessed that he wrote the circular, is a U. S. government official and is an outspoken "illy wilite" of the first stripe. Asked by Senator Cummins whether he favored disfranchisement of colored Americans, Linney declared that he did not. He stated that he believed in an educational qualification, but that it should apply to both races alike. Linney declared that he would honestly uphold his oath of office and the Constitution, if confirmed, and that he would take the affidavits that were made against registrars refusing to register colored citizens, and indict the registrars on them. With this turn of affairs, the colored representative citizens of North Carolina were satisfied, and pronounced it a victory. At the same time, the Administration was relieved of an embarrassing situation, as it is rather certain that the judiciary committee would have refused to endorse Linney, had he claimed the authorship of the circular, or declared that he was in sympathy with its contents. There was general rejoicing at the close of the hearing, and the opinion prevails that henceforth colored citizens will be given more consideration in politics in the Tar Heel state. BIG CO-OPERATION SOCIETY SAID TO BE IN TROUBLE Chicago, IL, July 6th (Associated Negro Press)—The Co-operative Society of America and Harrison Parker, its chief promoter are in trouble again Litigation has been started that seeks to oust Parker from his place as supreme dictator of the organization's destiny and to throw the concern into the hands of a receiver. According to the charges in the bill presented in the petition 66,000 investors have sunk over $8,000,000 in the project and that Parker is making frenzied efforts to sell $9,000,000 worth of certificates which, the petition states, will probably be diverted to the advancement of his private ventures to the extreme detriment of the Cooperative Society's interests. Colored people are credited with having invested more than $3,000,000 in the Co-operative Society with a strong likelihood, it is, asserted by the petitioners, that they will lose every penny of this large sum of money before the end of Parker's rope is reached. The petitioners further 'charge that the 120 stores of the company in the city of Chicago are being operated at a monthly loss of $20,000. "This is another instance," said the prominent colored business man who does not care to be quoted, "of colored people putting their unbridled confidence into the offerings of the white men. This man Parker has succeeded in parting 5,000 or 6,000 colored people from money they are not likely to see again. They have done this at the expense of strong, legitimate business organizations like the Binga State Bank, Liberty Life Insurance Company and the Nile Queen Corporation. I hope their experience with this man Parker will cure them of this habit." The petitioners, mostly white, declare that they will leave no stones unturned in their efforts to make Parker disgorge what they call his "ill-gotten gals." His hair is long and thin and white; His coat and trousers fit him tight. His hat and shoes and long cravat, Bespeak the one timed autocrat. When he was young, he lived in style And felt the warmth of fortune's smile. He laughed, he danced, he drank he ate. He bowed to none of humble state. But some one robbed him of his gain: They say he nearly went insane And that is why he acts so queer. And looks like some old fashioned seer. And that is why the reckless boy On michef bent, makes him his toy. And plies his wit with language tense. To see the old man turn and curse. Ah, me, what pity, such as he Should live beyond his years to see That all which once so brightly shone, Has turned to stubble and to stone. —Edwin Garnett Riley GASOLINE FILM We have just installed an up- Also Mo- General line of MERCHANDI- Call and J.

N. M. Clark, pastor. The members are requested to meet at the church 8 p. m MOURNED BY BAPTISTS Little Rock, Ark. July 6th (Associated Negro Press)—In the death of Dr. J. B. Gambrell. Baptist denomination has lost one of its most conspicuous figures, and the South one of her most valuable citizens. Dr. Gambrell was one great southern white man who arose above race prejudice, and had so much of the religion of the Lord Jesus Christ in him, that he considered all men as his brethren. He was a true friend to the Negro race, and during the time that he served as President of the Southern Baptist Convention, did all in his power to have that great organization to take hold of the hand of their weaker brother, and help him on his feet. Speaking on the race question several years ago, before the Mississippi legislature, he is quoted as saying "I would not strike a man, under me, if I should kick a man. I would select a governor, and not a man who could not help himself." He was a great preacher and teacher, and took pride in saying that he learned to preach by preaching to a Negro congregation in fact, he said that one of his first pastorates was a Negro church. The colored Baptists of this country share with their white brethren in their grief that they feel in the loss of that great man, for he truly was a Prince in Israel.
