SUPREME LODGE KNIGHTS OF. PYTHIAS MEETING IN TOPEKA
VOL. XXXV1
Royal Co., Of Savannah Wins Drill Contest
MANY RESOLUTIONS PASSED
Mrs. M. S. Grant Of Darien, Ga., Elected Supreme Inspector.
Topeka, Kanu, Aug 20—Having conquered the east, the Knights of Lythians turned their attention to the West, and closed the twenty-first biennial convention of the order in Topeka with the west hopelessly in their hands. To complete the story as one of union as well as action every officer was reflected by acclamation, from S. W. Green, supreme chancellor, down the line.
Gov. Henry J. Allen, the great governor of Kanu, stayed with the Lythians all the way. He welcomed them to the state, spent the day in John E. Lewis' camp on Governor's Day and occupied the center of the stage in the revelling stand on Friday when the parade tore all records to pieces. "I have got better ground to stand on," said Governor Allen, to whom the pursued Negro has never appealed to for longer in vain.
In the legislative session of the great Negro fraternity the charter of the Grand Lodge of Virginia was revoked by an almost unanimous vote. New York was chosen as the convention city for 1855, and the Siprane Chancellor was instructed to inquire into the returns of the grand domains so that hereafter the figures will stand up to each other face to face.
Topka, capital of Kansas, found itself overrun for the first time. The entire population took a holiday during the Pythian siege; white people got off to see something new to their gaze and colored people got off because of their habit to knock off in the season of Negro triumph. Thousands came from every direction. The presence of the Pythians, their conduct, their looks, their department in convention, made countless friends for the race in these parts, and backed the Ku Klux Klan to the wall.
Rosee Simmons was in attendance at the convention. "This is all it takes," he said, "this is all, a little patience, a little faith and everybody keeping step to the music up in front."
The supreme lodge was composed of some of the most representative men and women of the country, those who are struggling to better the condition of the race from every viewpoint. They were here from all parts of the country, and a deal of legislation of interest to the order was carried out. The supreme lodge elected the following officers: S. W. Greene of New Orleans was re-elected supreme chancellor of the Supreme Lodge of Kings of Pythias of North America, South America, Europe, Asia Africa and Australia. Ernest G. Tidrington of Evansville, Ind. was re-elected vice-supreme chancellor and head of the Supreme Court of Calcutta.
Both are recognized leaders among
Negroes in America. Green has been
supreme champion for the past four-
teen years, and his election was man-
hous.
The other officers elected by the sup-
reme judge are:
N. C. Mc. South Carolina, supreme
prelate.
Rose C. Simmons, Kentucky, sup-
reme lecturer.
E. E. Underwood, Kentucky, sup-
reme keeper of records and seals.

SAVANNAH, GA., THURSDAY AUGUST 25, 1921
MINISTER BEATEN BY ST. CAR CREW
Rev, J. D. Dudley Suffers Much Pain From Wounds
Rev. J. D. Dudley, pastor of Union Baptist church was badly beaten on last Sunday night white *returning home from church. When seen by a Tribune representative Her, Dudley made the following statement: "On last Sunday night about 11:10. I in company with my wife, Deacon James and Miss James, boarded an E. W. north bound car, at Huntington and West Broad streets. On getting on the car I gave the conductor 15 cents, paying for my wife and myself. He gave me the correct change, 1 cent. I then asked him, who. I positively know to have been under the influence of whiskey, to give me two transfers for Margaret and West Broad, but he made no reply. I stepped one side and waited for the transfers, but he went on collecting fares and paid no attention to me. The car then stopped at the Union Station, where there were many people waiting to get on. Seemingly a train had just arrived, and there were both white and colored. Two white men got on, paid their fares and asked for transfers, but the conductor paid no attention to them, all this time people were crowding on the car and could go no further, on account of these two men crowding the passage. When told by the conductor to move on, they said they were not going anywhere until he gave them transfers. During this time, the motorman came back to see what was going on and at this juncture, the conductor made the remark that he wished Sunday would never come. He then signalled the motorman to go ahead, leaving a good many people standing in front of the station.
"At the Central station he decided to give one of the white men transfers, which he did. I then stepped up in the place of one of the white men, still waiting for a transfer. By this time we had reached Margaret and West Broad streets, and several colored people were asking for transfers, which were refused. He gave later, Gaston one transfer, and when the people requested more transfers, he claimed that he had already given one man four or five transfers, and he did not intend going away any more. I then said that I had not received one and was entitled to what I paid for, and the conductor hearing this leaped on me saying that he would give it to me. He struck at my head with a black jack, hitting me on my shoulder. I then tried to defend myself with a parcel but he went back to the car with a 'switch rod' and drew his revolver, in the meantime, Deacon James held his hand to keep him from shooting. The motorman then rushed from the front with the controller in his hand and struck me in the back of the head, inflicting a severe wound, and causing me to become dazed. I then ran to keep from being beaten any more, and I was followed by a crowd of whites, who pushed me causing me to fall on my face, and another conductor, jeremiah beating me with another switch rod, causing the blood to flow freely from many parts of my body. The conductor was very vulgar in his language. I was able to escape the crowd with the aid of my wife, and Deacon James, with whose aid I was taken to a drug store where my wounds were dressed."
In the fractus, lats books and money were lost, and up to present have not been recovered. The clothing that Rev. Dudley wore contains much blood. No arrests have been made as yet and the 'Minister's' Union have taken the case up with Attorney Anron Kraich, Reverends Goodall and 'Moody' acting as committeemen. There, seems to be very little improvement in Rev. Dudley's condition and he is still very painful.

NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE HOLD SUCCESSFUL SESSIONS
CROP APPEAR IN FAIRLY
SATISFACTORY CONDITION
Bell Worns As Well As Boll Weath
Complained Of
Chicago, Ill. Aug 25th (Associated Negro Press—Notwithstanding many drawbacks, the crop of Central and North Texas appears to be finally satisfactory condition. The extremely hot winds in Texas, judging from reports, did not check boll weevil activity to the extent that might have been explained of. Wet weather in Georgia was favorable for weevil activity. The crop of Arkansas seems to be doing well, although deterioration, due mostly to boll weevil, has been severe in some localities, while drought caused further damage to others.
Fruiting, it is reported, has been fair to good, and most sections report a fairly good cotton crops already assured, but many state that this is about all the crop that will be made. Cultivation was excellent, and this has been a big factor in the progress of the crop thus far. The future of the crop is probably more dependent upon boll weevil than of any other thing. Dry weather to the point of damage from drought, it seems, is regarded as the most favorable condition for the crop, from this time forward. This would hasten maturity and probably check boll weevil. Fields as a rule are clean, labor is plentiful and the plant healthy looking. The above report is based upon replies received from correspondents of The Associated Negro Press, covering 752 counties and parishes in 10 principal cotton producing states.

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
Established 1875
BY JOHN H. DEVEAUX
END ASSOCIATED
MILITARY
PRESS
FIRST IN
SERVICE
The National Negro Business League just closed at Atlanta, while brilliant in the distinguished men and women which annually brings together for several days of association and the rare opportunity it gives one to meet and know the men and women of achievement in the race, falls to present the efficient and serviceable program which it ought and which it could.
It has long been charged with being more of a social than a business institution, and unless it shall begin to function more vitally for the purposes for which it was created and shall provide some more definite and concrete services for the hundreds of ordinary individuals who make the annual plightimage to its sessions, it will not serve its proper purpose.
The one thing needed is that the executive committee of the league shall take vigorous hold of these programs both for the annual meetings and the ad interim, and put forth some real life subject matter, instructional as well as historical of Negro business, and make the affair so vital that every visitor to these annual meetings will be able to carry home with him something which he will be able to employ to advantage in his own sphere of business.
This is no difficult task. 'There is plenty to talk and write about in Negro business experience, and we have made sufficient progress in all lines, to be able to give "pointers" to men in almost any of the usual lines.
Atlanta people made most charming hosts to the league, and simply outdid all provisors and anticipations in regard to entertainment, and although there was not as much of the definite as there might have been in the league program, few will regret the three eventful and happy days spent at Atlanta.
WHERE FITNESS COUNTS
There are so many opportunities to "get on" and "get up" in the world, and in so many lines and fields where discriminations and prejudices cannot count against one's efforts, that there is little patience for the man who is constantly attributing his low estate to obstacles offered or placed in his way by others.
All over the nation today, colored men, singly and through organizations of their own creation, are cutting their way through to the top in many lines of business. They are doing this, not by appeal based upon considerations of race and class, but by putting into their businesses the best in efficiency of service and value. They are giving a dollar's worth of service or merchandise for the dollar tendered in exchange for that service or merchandise. They are in the open market for their share of the public patronage and trade because they are able to compete with others in the lines they play, and are getting just such portion of that patronage as their efficiency and service would deserve. There is little or no color in the lines of marketing of merchandise, three days, and much less in the skilled trades of industry than there used to be.
There are few lines of business where colored business men and professional men have not entered; there are few trades where colored men are dealed the right and chance to work; there is little difference, if any, in the scale of profits and wages.
Negro in the larger cities of the South have made astounding strides as merchants, bakers, manufacturers and workers in the skilled trades; in recent years, in the North, Negro business enterprises have flourished as never before, as Negro have migrated to these centers. And more interesting and important than all these Negro artisans and skilled workers are finding ready employment in all lines of work in the North, where formerly union labor barred the doors against them.
It is not unusual, now-a-days, to find men of many races working side by side, on the same job, and in the same kind and grade of work, on jobs in the north, whereas a few years back such a thing was unthinkable and impossible. It is not long since the suggestion would be the occasion for strike or walk-out. Northern employers were forced to yield, too, to the mandates of organized labor, because black workers were so few. Negroes, in the trades are many and well-equipped for their jobs all over the country now, and there will never be a return to the old days of industrial and wage slavery such as only Negro skilled men, alone, knew before the war.
And so young men of our group must look seriously at the changing times and conditions about them, see the greatest advantage of the skilled man over the unskilled in the field of labor, and the free and open competition in the market place of business, where the best things go to the fittest and where thrift knows not he color of a
man's skin, and fit, themselves and the race in the battles of life. For it is not color or condition; it is fitness that counts.
We are glad to say that the Y. M. C. A building is becoming more popular with the folks each day. Several clubs and auxiliaries hold their meetings regularly at the building. One of the best foot ball and basket ball teams in the South is our object the coming season, also some of the best Negro song artists and entertainers will be here under the auspices of the "Y".
The first Sunday in September will be held at the Dunbar theatre, the installation of officers and inauguration of our fall program. P. J. Blackwell and Thomas Johnson, state secretary, colored and white respectively, will be present. One of the biggest rallies and programs will be presented. The merger of this, popular theatre has tendered the "Y" the use of this building for holding its Sunday religious programs. we will let you know about this later. Aolg program is arranged for Sunday as follows:

Machine Guns Set Up About Jail To Guard Prisoners
Barnstable, Mass., Aug 24th (Associated Negro Press)—Four, machine guns were set up here about the fall by forty artillerymen who arrived from the national guard summer camp at Barnstable last Friday night to aid Sheriff Rosenthal to guard three colored men who were under arrest charged with highway robbery and criminal assault on a young white woman here earlier in the week.
The troops came after the sheriff had appealed for the additional protection when he learned that a mob of Negroes was forming to rescue the prisoners and another mob of whites were gathering to repeat their attempts to lynch the suspects, John Dies, Benjamin Gomez, and Joseph Andrews. The white mob of 200 men and women made an attempt to get the prisoners. The Negroes have been identified by Miss Gertrude Butler and William Eldredge as the men who held them up and criminally assaulted the young woman. Dies and Gomez have been held in $15,000 ball and the third was arraigned Saturday.

ATTACKED BY GANG OF
COLORED PEOPLE
New Orleans, La., Aug. 24th (Associated Negro Press) Attacked by a gang of colored people who threw bricks at him near the Mehle Market, Howard and Seventh streets, Sunday afternoon, Alex Macedon, proprietor of a confectionery at 2700 Howard street, fired two shots at the gang and then boarded a Louisiana avenue car. Macedon did not know if his bullets took effect.
According to Macedon, a Negro entered his place Saturday night, ate ice cream and cake and refused to pay. When he argued with the man, the Negro cut him on the arm with a knife. Sunday afternoon, said Macedon, the same man returned to his confectionery and cursed him. Macedon said he followed him up Howard street in the hope of seeing a policeman. Then he saw that he was joined by a gang of colored men, said Macedon. They all threw bricks at him.

BUSINESS WORLD SOON BE
BACK TO NORMALCY Chicago, Ill., Aug. 24th (Associated Negro Press)—Optimism and belief that the business world would soon be back to "normalcy" were expressed by J. Ogden Armour during his report as chairman of the finance committee
of the Institute of American Meet Packers. The report and its accompanying address had been looked forward to by the packing industry as an indication of what could be expected during the coming year "The finance committee is among those who are optimistic," Mr. Armour began. "We see improvement in the last year months and believe firmly that the tide of business has turned. Nevertheless, conservatism and caution should continue to be the watchwords during the coming year.
"We are on the same road today as we were a year ago, but with this difference: The end of the road seems to be in sight. At any rate there are evidences that the worst of it has been travelled and that the going will be less difficult from this point on, especially if the lessons which have been learned in the last years have been forgotten. Wages must be made to conform to present day standards. War time living costs compelled great wage advances, but the movement back to normalcy shown by living costs in the last year has not been reflected to any great extent in packing house wages. While all other major industries have been getting their wage readjusted to peace time living costs, the packing industry wage rates remained almost stationary, more than twice their prewar height.
"The fact that periodical balances are again appearing in black ink ought not to be taken to mean that the red ink which has been in constant use for two years can now be thrown away. Just as the packing industry was the first to suffer from postwar readjustment, so it is hoped that it will lead the procession into prosperity. The meat packers did not fight liquidation. Many other basic industries did, and some have succeeded in standing it off even to this time. They can not continue to do so, however, and eventually they will have to go thru the same process this industry has gone thru. The result will be that when many industries are in the throes of readjustment the packing industry will again be out in the clear with a reasonable balance for doing business on a profitable basis."

Mass Meeting Held At McIntosh,
The regular Farmers Mass Meeting was held at Dorchester Academy on July 29. 20. This mass meeting was organized by Prof. D. A. Williams in 1915, who was their Farm Demonstration Agent, with headquarters at the Georgia State College, Savannah, Ga.

At the meeting the farmers from all sections of the State meet and discuss farm problems demonstrations in signing and preserving are conducted by the women.
At the meeting this year demonstrations were given in teaching the standard packs of the watermelon rind and the green tomato pickle by Miss Anna C. Stoney, home demonstration agent; Liberty county; Miss Ruby O'Neal, home demonstration agent. McIntosh county: Miss Evelyn C.

The following are the resolutions adopted:
Whereas, The Farmers Mass Meeting held under the auspices of the "Extension Division of the Ga. State College of Agricultural and the United States Department of Agriculture Co-operating is to do definite service for the farmers of Georgia; and
Whereas, we believe that this great organization is destined to do a larger service for Georgia by declaring our solemn views to the people of the State Therefore be it.
Regretful that we appreciate the fact that the State has given us eleven farm demonstration agents, eleven home demonstration agents to do service among our people and further because of the fact that where ever these agents have gone our people have been lifted up. We respectfully ask that the authorities will help the macedonian cry coming from other counties of the State.
That we appeal to our State Agents, a man who has done more for Georgia agriculturally in the person of Prof. R. A. Williams to use his good office in helping to place a county agent in Long county, recently separated from Liberty county, and containing many of the enterprising and progressive citizens formerly of Liberty county.
That we endorse the Boys and Girl club movement of Georgia, because it is revolutionalizing farming in this State.
That we work for the better educational facilities, better school houses better teachers, better schools and
That we endorse helping the agents to establish community kitchens in every section of the county.
That we advise that each farmer raise a plenty of food and feed on his farm for his family and farm animals.
That we recommend that each community be organized into various clubs.
We heartily endorse the Boys and Girls Agricultural Short Course to be held at the Ga. State College, Savannah, Ga., beginning Aug. 29, Sept. 2nd.
That we respectfully appeal to the commission governing the Ga. State Industrial College to establish permanently the long course in Agriculture at the Georgia Staeg Industrial College Savannah, Ga.
That we aim at all times to cultivate better feelings between the races. We do hereby extend to all the counties in Southeast Georgia to send delegates to the Mass Meeting.

(Continued from page) at 9:30 o'clock Thursday and the first thing in order was the report of E.D. Green of Chicago, secretary of the Pythian Temple Sanitarium and Temple Commission, which is supported by the supreme lodge. Green has held some prominent positions in Illinois, and was at one time member of the general assembly from Chicago. He has perhaps handled more money belonging to the Negroes of this country than any other official. The report made showed that the collection during the past two years had been $95,594.57, and the expenditures had been $9,768.71. The department operates a bath and sanitarium in Hot Springs for the benefit of the members of the order and all other members of the Negro race. It is the only bath house opened to Negroes in Hot Springs, and they are planning for the erection of a Pythian Temple in Chicago at a cost of $250,000.

Royall Company arrived home Monday night and was given a royal welcome on its appearance at the deport. The local K. of P. companies, in full dress escorted the victors to the Duffy street hall, where the national champions were given a big blow out. The escorting battalion was under command of Major Hill. This is the second time a Georgia company has carried off honors at the national equipment and the citizens are, naturally, much pleased over the victory stored by the company.

(5) To constantly seek, compile and give them a rating later on the order of the Dunn and Brad-treet Mercantile publish new improved, or the most successful methods of managing and building up various kinds of business or other racial enterprises. To form a very close alliance with the several hundred Negro papers and magazines now being published to the end that each Local League may be brought to formally support its local Negro newspaper;
(6) To place in the field efficiency experts for the purpose of studying Negro business and making such practical suggestions as would serve to put such Negro business enterprises in touch with live, up-to-date, economical, and successful business methods;
(7) Finally, to systematically develop the membership of Local Negro Business Leagues as a basis for the promotion of the ideals of the National organization.
"Such a program as his," Dr. Scott stated, "spells service in every line. It has for its purpose but one thing, namely, the creation of a Bureau, the influence of which shall be felt in every corner of our board land. The times are propitious for an organization like the Business League to challenge and deserve the support of all interested in the economic development of the Negro people."
The League was called to order by J. C. Ross, President of the Atlanta Branch Negro Business League, and after the Invocation by Rev D. H. Stauton, pastor of Central M. E. Church he introduced Dr. John Hope, President of Moorehouse College, who spoke words of welcome on behalf of the citizens of Atlanta and also introduced Mr. T. K. Gibson, who spoke words of welcome on behalf of the Negro Business League of Atlanta. The response to the address of Welcome was made by Bishop Robert E. Jones, of New Orleans, La., Chairman of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League. Other addresses were delivered by R. L. Smith, President Farmers' Improvement Society, Waco, Texas; Victor H. Tulane, Montgomery, Ala.; Charles H. Jones, Winston-Salem, N. C.; J. H. Smothers, Mount Meligs, Ala.; R. E. Edwards, Starr, S. C.; and W. H. Dodd, Baltimore, Md.
At noon, Wednesday, the officers and members of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League and a number of other important men were given a dinner by the Y. M. C. A., at white time Mr. B. B. DeFrantz, one of the secretaries of
the International Committee of the X. M. O. A., explain briefly just why it was wished that such a group should be called together. In his remarks he told of a similar dinner which was held in Philadelphia at the 1920 meeting of the National Business League, out of which came the effective response to the call for the Colored people to help support the work of the Y. M. C. A., mentioning that the Colored people more than paid the quota allotted to them in the budget of expenses for the work in the Colored Men's Department of the Y. M. C. A. He stated that he felt confident that even greater support than last year, especially with the help and cooperation of the effective forces, in the National Negro Business League would be secured.
in terms of earnest approval of the efforts of the Colored people of Atlanta and of Georgia to win a place in the Business World. He referred in detail not only to what Colored business men are accomplishing but to what the city of Atlanta is doing in the way of encouraging them. The address of Dr. R. R. Moton, President of the National Negro Business League, was the feature of the Wednesday evening session. Dr. Moton's address was well received by the large and enthusiastic audience present.
Acclamation
At the conclusion of the President's annual address, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, the Executive Secretary of the National Organization advanced to the front of the platform and in a short address called attention to the need of harmony among the Colored people of the United States and emphasized the need and necessity of there being complete harmony among all connected with the League if it is to achieve its greatest success. He concluded his remarks by offering a motion that the rules be suspended and that Dr. Moton be reelected by acclamation as President of the League another year. Dr. Moton in turn made an address of similar character and concluded his remarks by offering a motion that the rules be suspended and that Dr. Emmett J. Scott be reelected by acclamation as Secretary of the League for another year. Similar motions were made by Honorable Perry W. Howard, Special Assistant to the Attorney General of the United States, and President of the National Negro Bar Association, that the rules
be suspended and that Bishop Robert D. Jones, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the National Organization, be re-elected by acclamation as Chairman of the Executive Committee. Following Mr. Howard's motion Mrs. Booker T. Washington offered a motion that the Treasurer, Mr. Charles H. Anderson, of Jacksonville, Florida, also be re-elected by acclamation. Each one of these motions as offered was unanimously adopted.
A feature of Wednesday evening's program was the story told by Mr. Harry H. Pace, President of the Pace Photograph Corporation of New York City, of the manufacturing of phonegraph records of Negro voices by a Negro company. Mr. Pace stated that the aim of the company was to afford to Negro persons of musical talent the opportunity to have their art recorded and to open places of agreeable employment for larger numbers of the race.

The various reports of the affiliated organizations revealed the definite activities engaged in throughout the past year. The remaining sessions of the convention were devoted to the various important addresses delivered by successful business men in all the fields of economic endeavor. The following resolutions were reported by the Committee on Resolutions, and in each case unanimously adopted:
We, your committee on resolutions, beg leave to sumit herewith the following report:
We would first of all express our appreciation for the fine spirit shown by Atlanta and her citizens, in providing so hospitably for our comfort and entertainment. We would also commend the Atlanta Brauch of the National Business League for the very high degree of efficiency shown in even the minutest details of preparedness. We would especially express our thanks for the splendid barbecue, which was so splendidly enforced by all Atlanta, in the entertainment of he League has done herself proud.
We also take this occasion to express to his honor—Mayor Key our deep appreciation for his magnificent welcome address to us and we especially commend him for his fairminded, broad-gauged policy in administering the affairs of Atlanta for the benefit of all its citizens (white and black.) The League, again expresses its appreciation of the active co-operation extended it from year to year by the National Clean Up Campaign Bureau and especially for the financial assistance given the past year to assist in promoting through the Negro Community Campaign, better health conditions among our people. The Bureau initiative and experience and facilities and its generosity in giving aid to the League's health work has been very helpful.
The Committee beg leave to call attention to the great progress which the Negroes are making in all lines of business endeavor. Throughout all sections of the country, east and west, north and south, new business enterprises of all sorts are being opened. As an example, since the last meeting of the League ten new banks have begun operation. Your Committee is pleased to report that the movement began fifty years ago at our emancipation, to buy land, to establish business, build churches, schools and other organizations which help to promote our progress along all lines, is growing stronger each year.
Our people have come to recognize the truth that they must be measured by the same standard which has been applied to all other elements which enter into our citizenship. We are entering upon a new day in our economic progress. By reason of our past conditions we were deprived of the capital, the training and the opportunity to enter the field of manufacturing, transportation and commerce. We, as a result, necessarily turned our attention to agriculture. The time, however, has now arrived and the opportunity has arisen while are enabling us to enter upon that more expanded state of economic progress that is no necessary to our full develop

The acquisition of education, the development of home life, and the ownership of lands are the foundations upon which our civilization is built. We therefore urge as has been done at other sessions of this League, and with all the emphasis at our command that our people buy land. Buy land—buy it now: never again will the opportunity be as favorable as it is today.
The League would again call attention to a very important matter it is urged that more interest be taken in all matters affecting our civic welfare; especially as this welfare relates to better educational facilities better housing conditions, better streets and better sanitary conditions. The securing of all these things rests ultimately in the franchise. For this reason it is recommended that Negroes more generally exercise the franchise and by their votes and efforts help forward civic welfare. In those states where laws have now been enacted restricting franchise, this League demands that these laws be impartially applied to black and white alike.
One of the most important questions which concerns the Negro in this country and especially in the south is law and order. Negroes ask only that the court above all other agencies ushould give impartial justice. If negroes commit crimes let them be punished by the courts and not by mob. We condemn in unmeasured terms the lawlessness and violence which have prevailed in certain sections of the country during the past year, against the race and culminating in the Jasper County horrors and the frightful Tulsa riots, exhibiting as never before the intense racial hatred which exists.
This condition was built upon and developed by the hateful teaching of a supremacy foreign and antagonistic to the ideals and institutions of American Democracy. It fosters and increases racial hatred in every section of the country, encourages and approves of or condones lawlessness and violence against Negroes and is responsible for the re-appearance of a secret aggregation masquerading as alder to law enforcement and conservators of law and yet committing every form of lawlessness endeavoring to create a reign of terror among law abiding and industrious citizens. And yeth this organization operating as a so-called "Praternal Society," commits its deeds of violence apparently with the sanction and approval of certain state, county and municipal governments.
We deploy and regard with anxious concern the changing attitude of certain National leaders who indicate a willingness to deliver Eight Million Negroes without an effort to enforce the Fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, into the hands, for full absolute and unrestricted control of those lawless agencies which appear to control the government of certain states or whose officials approve of or indulgent to their activities. The National Negro Business League especially commends to our people the movement to establish better relations between the races. We are pleased to note that in every section of the south efforts are being made to bring together leaders of the two races in conferences. The League most heartily commends the spirit and the work of the Inter-Racial Committee. The League has always endorsed to hold before the American public the dominant thought that neither white nor black wishes to exterminate or suppress the other, but that both stand abrest for the
