ANTI-LYNCHING BILL TO COME UP
Many Senators In Favor Of Measure
Washington, March 29—(Associated Negro Press)—Senator Win. E. Borah, chairman of the sub-committee in charge of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, has let it be known that it is his opinion that the bill will be brought up before the present Congress, for final passage, prior to the recess adjournment.
From all over the country, the senator is receiving requests from individuals and organizations, that the committee conduct hearings as early as possible, and urging that the bill be placed on the calendar. Senator Borah has replied to all inquiries that at the first opportunity he will arrange for hearings.
It is known that the senator realizes the great national interest in this legislation, and that he will lead the fight for the passage of the bill, seems to be a foregone conclusion.
James Weldon Johnson, executive secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., and assisting in the public representation of the bill, held an interview recently with Senator Borah here, and was informed as was the Associated Negro Press, that the constitutional phase of the legislation, will be the chief feature of the committee hearing.
To this end the best legal representation in the country is being enlisted for the purpose of bringing out the facts on this particular subject. Moorefield Storey, of Boston, former attorney general Wickham of New York; Wm. H. Lewis of Boston and Edward H. Morris of Chicago, as well as Alexander H. Martin of Cleveland, Ohio, are some of the high lights in the legal profession who will be invited to deal with the constitutional subject before the senatorial committee. The Associated Negro Press, both by personal interview and correspondence, has learned that there is a prevailing sentiment in the United States Senate, particularly among Republicans, for the passage of the bill. Many of them have expressed their opinion in no uncertain terms.
The colored people of the United States are urged to make the passage of the anti-lynching bill, a subject of religious carniness. Upon the final disposition of this particular bill, will depend much of the attitude of the American people so far as Negro Americans are concerned, for many years

Washington, D. C., March 23—The National Association For the Advancement of Colored People have been instrumental, in preventing a parade of the Ku Klux Klan in Washington, if was announced today at N. A. A. C. P. headquarters.
A report that such a parade was planned came to the District of Columbia branch and Shelby J.

An investigation was immediately began and police assurance was given that no such parade would be held.
As a result of the investigation a new police regulation was issued by the District Commissioners in the National Capitol, prohibiting parades in disgulse. The regulation is as follows:
Ordered that processions and parades, except funeral, shall not be allowed except by permit of the major and superintendent of police, which permit shall designate the time and route of such procession or parade, and no part of such procession or parade shall more except according to the terms of such permit; provided, however, that no permit shall be issued for any procession or parade of any group, body or organization, dressed, masked or disguised as to be unrecognizable; provided, that this provision shall not apply to persons costumed as clowns taking part in authorized circus parades.
To All Patriotic Colored Citizens, Men and Women:
Some years ago the late Professor Booker Washington started a movement for the observance of the colored people of a National Health Week, and this movement has been continued annually under the annepces of Tuskegee Institute. It may, therefore, properly be regarded as an Annual Memorial of this good man whose life was consecrated with such fruitful results to the education of his people.
The Racial-Relationship Commission through its local committees co-operated last year in this movement, and it was observed more widely than ever before, because these local committees added in the local arrangements.
This year the Health Week will be observed from April 2nd to 5th, and the Savannah Racial-Relationship Committee, whose names are appended to this letter, desire to encourage and assist in this observance.

Program Of Interesting Events To Be Carried Out At Tuskegee Next Week
A
Tuskegee, Ala., March 28—The friends of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington will be glad to know that the Booker T. Washington Memorial which is to be unveiled on April 4th, has been erected. Dr. Robert K. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, and from William G. Wilcox, New York City, chairman of the board of trustees, were present when the eight foot bronze figure was placed upon the artistic granite pedestal, which stands in the center of the campus. The monument was uncovered for a few minutes for inspection and teachers, students and visitors gathered around eagles to catch a glimpse of it. Those who saw it joined with others, who have had the privilege of seeing it, in declaring that Mr. Charles Keck, the sculptor, has produced a master work of art.
Dr. Moton announced today that present indications are that the invelling will bring together the large-
this letter to all colored citizens, in the hope that they will thereby secure the assistance of all churches, schools and other organizations, and all individuals in making the observance as nearly universal as possible. To make it effective every body must cooperate, by spreading the information, by themselves carrying out the plans for a general clean-up and by inducing others to assist in the movement.
If generally observed it will promote cleanliness and health among the colored people, and at the same time benefit the whole community. The value of a greater and more intelligent interest in hygiene and sanitation to prevent disease, and promote health be over estimated.
These are the special objectives we recommend to secure the cleanest cleanup week ever held:
Every congregation to be addressed.
Every school child to be instructed in the subject of habits of personal cleanliness.
Every parent-teachers association to be addressed.
Every lodge to be urged to assist.

YOUNG COLORED MAN
FOUND HANGING IN WOODS
Indianapolis, Ind. Mar. 29 George Tompkins is the name of the young colored man who was found hanging in the cold spring woods near here. Police were satisfied that he was murdered and then taken to the spot and hanged in an effort to suggest that he had been lynched. He was identified by pay envelopes and a notebook bearing his name. His record here has been good and the circumstances surrounding the murder have made it one of the most puzzling the detectives have ever had to deal with. When found the young man's feet were crossed and resting on the ground. The half-inch rope around his neck was tied to two of the limbs two feet above his head. The feet were about one and one-half foot from the trunk of the tree and the body was resting against the tree. The detectives said the young man could not have fallen in such a position after killing himself. The handkerchief which bound his hands behind his back was not tied tightly, and the detectives said if he had been alive when the bands were tied on him, he could have struggled out of them easily. Four or five of the small limbs on the side of the tree on which the body was found had been cut off, apparently with a small penknife.

BOYS' CLUB WORK
In order to stimulate, as well as make the influence of club work felt by the three million of rural boys and girls an enrollment campaign, they ing conducted throughout the state by all rural workers. One hundred is the goal to be reached by every agent by July 1st and with the present force of sixteen home demonstration agents and fourteen farm demonstration agents this means that 2,800 boys and girls to receive agricultural instructions in some of the various clubs. We feel that the time has arrived for the boys and girls to play their part in the development of economic production and the farm and home improvement. Recently the assistant secretary of agriculture, Hon. G. W. Pruhalev, made an auto trip from Athens to Atlanta, Macon, Dublin and Sandersville and other counties traveled by this route including twenty-six counties altogether. It was his first trip into the counties in the South and he was studying conditions as compared with other sections of the United States.
As he left to return to Washington, he made the following statement to Mr. C. A. Colb, editor of the Southern Ruralist and Mr. J. Phil. Campbell, director of extension work, Georgia State College of Agriculture, Athens, Ga:
"The problems here are quite different from those in other sections of the country, due to the fertility of the soil, the climatic conditions, the white and colored population and the educational development of your people. I think that your principle work should be among the boys and girls. I believe in the end it will continue."
would therefore never point extender people to work among the juniors." Boys and girls club work started in Georgia In 1904 in one county. In 1910 considerable attention and the average yield per acre in the state jumped from ten to fifteen bushels within two years. The total yield was increased from forty-nine to seventy million bushels with little or no increase in acreage. Georgia has for the past ten years retained that increase and we must credit clubs with having started the interest in corn production. The Girl's canning club and poultry club work began to attract attention in 1912. Pig clubs in 1915. We have doubled the number of hogs in Georgia since we inaugurated the club work. It is impossible to estimate the value of Girls' club work.
Agent T. W. Brown of Sandersville reports: "I feel that it will not be much of a job for me to get 100 boys and girls into the clubs of Washington county, because much enthusiasm is already advanced among the young. I feel that there is coming a new day in Washington County. I have worked hard trying to whip things into shape for the last ten months; I am just being able to see in a small way things coming to pass. I have a game called buzz that walks." Mrs. M. H. Jones, home demonstration agent, Washington County, reports: "I have already enrolled more than one hundred club members. I hearily indorse your plans and shall do my utmost to carry out your wishes."
Agent Win. Hatebe of Conyers reports: "I have been trying to lure up club work and give Miss Seable Russell much assistance, as she is to take care of the work among the women and girls. We have nearly 400 club members."
Mrs. Effie Lampkin, home demonstration agent of Dublin, reports: "Wish to say that we are getting on nicely with our enrollment. We have over 200 members, Mr. Carlton and I are going to do our best. Our people are very much interested and I feel that, much will be accomplished in our county this year."

MOREHOUSE COLLEGE NEWS
With the coming of spring the student body of Morehouse college is leaving winter lethargy and is putting on new life. Everybody seems bubbling over with energy that has not had full play since the close of the football season. But this surplus energy is not allowed to waste, for between the religious and athletic activities this energy has healthful channels of escape. The X. M. C. A. has just closed a very successful and inspiring week of prayer which resulted in the conversion of seven souls. This campaign was opened by the reverend Dr. Hall, of Liberty Baptist church; and carried to a gratifying close by our own Rev. L. O. Lewis, professor of theology at Morehouse. Following in the wake of this campaign came a timely and elfengy address from Dr. Moreland, senior international secretary of the X. M. C. A.
A brilliant successful basketball season closed with the opening of the present month, leaving the weathers of the Maroon undisputed champions of the South and kings of the college basketball realm. But new seasons bring new sports, other contests, and other fields to conquer. College baseball is here; and the Maroon boys have already annexed two victories and are looking forward eagerly to battles with the best teams that the South can afford. On March 11 they took the measure of Clark University to the tune of 2 to 1; and on March 18 they scaled Morris Brown by the score of 7 to 3. What will be the result of this week's contest, who will dare say? For Morehouse meets her ancient foe, Atlanta University, at Morehouse. The summer school is fast getting into form and the authority is confident that it will exceed the former session.

THE SAYANNAH TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MARCH 30, 1922
Large Attendance At Second Church
The members as well as the citizens are exhibiting much interest in the Second Baptist church. This is one of the oldest and most substantial churches in the state. Its membership is numbered among prominent families. This church has always been blessed by having very able pastors. It is now without a pastor but no doubt this will be cedited shortly.
Some weeks ago on the occasion of the visit of Rev. A. C. Williams of Philadelphia. The Tribune announced that he was coming to accept the pastorate. This much was in error. He came only to hold a series of services which were held to the great satisfaction of the members. Rev. Williams has the pastorate of a flourishing church in Philadelphia from which he has not resigned, and it should not be understood that he has accepted the call here. Should same be done it will be officially announced by the officers of the church.
Rev. Williams preached two very acceptable sermons on Sunday. He left on Tuesday accompanied by Mrs. Williams and their little boy.

NEGRO SPECTATORS INJURED
AT AUTO RACES FRIDAY
As the result of one of the racing cars, driven by H. Robinson, losing the track in the speed contests last Friday afternoon at the Fair grounds three Negro spectators were injured when the machine crashed through the fence knocking down Joe Hugunle, 23; Moultrie Ward, 17, of Pappy street, and Sammy Fulton, 12, of 1217 Burroughs street.
Huglinnie and Ward were standing at the end of the first curve, watching the races and the little Fulton boy was trying to sell some peanuts to the men nearby when the machine crashed through the fence. There were hundreds of spectators around, but all of them except the three injured persons, seeing the impending danger, were able to run to safety. The big racing car ploughed through about forty feet of the fence, upset a Ford and then stuck the three unfortunate persons. Huglinnie and the little Fulton boy being carried away in an unconscious condition, many persons thinking them dead. They were rushed to Charity hospital, where Dr. C. C. Middleton attended to them and says that unless complications set in they will recover. The accident is said to have been caused by the driver ducking an airplane above which was going around with the racers when he suddenly lost control of the machine and went thru the fence.

NEGRO GIVEN A NEW TRIAL
Shows That Mob Spirit Dictated Conviction
Charleston, W. Va., Mar. 28—"The mob spirit dictated this conviction." "The bloodthirsty mob spirit permeated the atmosphere of the trial and had its effect upon court and jury." The above quotation is from a unanimous opinion of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals written by Judge Frank Lively and handed down Tuesday ordering a new trial of Harry Laftimer, Negro, convicted in the Circuit Court of Mingo county on the charge of raping an eight-year old white girl on September 6, 1921. The same day he was arrested and within twenty-four hours was on his way to the state penitentiary, according to the records of the case.
The reason for this exceedingly hurried conviction is apparent. In the statement from the circuit court, which has been made part of the record. In this statement the judge of the circuit court said: "I knew that feeling was running high against the accused in and about the court house and had some fear of mob violence being inflicted on the accused if speedy justice were not meted out to him by the court."
"The mob spirit has dictated this conviction," said Judge Lively, in his opinion. "The blood-thirsty mob spirit permeated the atmosphere of the trial, and had its effect upon the court and jury. The defendant may be guilty; that does not concern us. But he is entitled to a fair and impartial trial, to the calm, deliberate and uninfluenced judgement of his peers. Orderly and constituted government demands such trial. It is a safeguard in which all members of society are interested and which should be jealously upheld and guarded. A judicial lynching is a graver and more startling crime than a lynching by an irresponsible rabble. It undermines the foundation of orderly government and weakens respect for law and order. There should be no compromise with the spirit of lynching for any crime.
"What we have said is entirely impersonal," he says, and is not to be considered as reflecting upon the conduct of the officials in charge of the case. The circumstances may have impelled the choice of what was considered the lesser evil. The duty is therefore imperative on this court to annul the result brought about by a choice of evils, and to preserve to every members of society, however humble he may be, or however guilty he may be, the right of fair and impartial trial."
In the syllabus in the case, Judge Lively said: "Where a person has been arrested for an alleged crime, committed on the day of the arrest, and on the day following is indict, tried, convicted, sentenced to hang, and immediately taken to the penitentiary for that purpose and it appears that he has been given no time to prepare his defense, was assigned counsel after he announced that he was ready for trial and pleaded not guilty, and the judge certifies that he knew that feeling was running high against the accused in and about the court house, and that he had some that of mob violence being indicted upon the accused if a speedy trial was not had; and it appears that no witnesses were summoned for the defendant, no motion made for a change of venue, improper evidence admitted on the perfunctory defense interposed, the appellate court will set aside the verdict and award the prisoner a new trial, because he has not been accorded a fair and impartial trial."
"During the Civil war, the Union forces were advancing up a high hill. A Negro standard bearer, full of zeal for the cause, rushed far ahead of the line. An officer alarmed lest the colors be lost, called out: 'Hey, Sergeant, bring back that flag. You'll lose our colors next you know'. The old Negro standard bearer waved the stars and stripes and shouted back, 'Hey, Captin, dis heah flag neber goes back, Brling up dem da men."

HEALTH WEEK
Next week is what will be known as Health Week. This will be observed by the Negroes throughout the country. The Inauguration of this observance is traced to the illustrious Booker T. Washington whose monument is to be unveiled next week at Tuskegee Institute.
That there should be such an observance among us is easily understood from the thousands of untimely deaths which occur yearly in our ranks. Any effort, therefore, which has us its objective the cutting down of our high death rate should be given every possible encouragement.
In this city plans have been made for a proper observance of the week and the citizens in general should lend every assistance to those who have the movement in hand. Our death rate here, as elsewhere, is much higher than it should be, in fact, it is apparently high when compared with that of the whites, and we should all bend every effort to very appreciably decrease it by every possible means. The promoters of health week cannot stress to much the importance of our trying in every way to improve our health and thereby bring down the unusually large number of unnecessary deaths which occur among us every year.
X GOOD PRECEDENT
During the week one of the younger social clubs of the city set a precedent which many other organizations may well follow. It seems this organization has a membership of about forty young men only four of whom are registered voters. The matter of registration was brought to their attention at a meeting about a month ago. A committee of the club took the matter up and its recommendation that all members of the club be required to qualify as registered voters was unanimously adopted at a meeting held this this
is host upon getting their names on the registration lists of the county, and each member is given twelve months in which to qualify and if at the expiration of this time any of them has not registered he automatically suspends himself from the club. This move on the part of these young men is well worth considering. They are attempting to do a task which they will never regret and which, if accomplished by all of these young men, will give them an organization which will have a singular standing in this community.
The steps taken by this club ought to be followed by other organizations among us and then, perhaps, instead of our having less than five hundred registered voters among the men we might swell this number several times. Too much emphasis cannot be placed upon any effort which is made to impress upon our men the necessity of becoming registered voters. The wom en seem to be alive to this urgent need and are allowing nothing to stand in the way of their bringing their derelict sisters face to face with their duty along this line. But the men, generally, seem to be asleep on this matter, and we are, therefore particularly pleased to note the stand taken by this club of young men, which in substance says, that unless you are a full-fledged citizen you cannot be allied with us.
Why should not many other of our social organizations follow in the wake of these young men?

TEMPTATIONS
Strong drink gambling, definite vices, bad as they are, have no more power to undermine a man's moral character than the selfishness and sluggishness that may grow upon him in his easy life, where he considers himself immune from temptation. This easy life coddles and softens his flesh. Stamina never literally means backbone. Real stamina means hard firm flesh and limber joints so fqr as it means anything of the physique, and these are the things that a man loses as he grows older, not because he is old, not because he has not resisted many subtle little laziness, the meanest sort of temptation.—Star.
CALLING THE COLOR LINE
The color line has been called the crowning disgrace of America and the white man has been accused of being the greatest offender, but the Literary Digest and Leslie's Weekly have recently published an article, presumably written by a black man, which shows that in the black race the lines of color are drawn more firmly and insistently than by the white people. He claims that Negro society, like Caesar's Gaul, is divided in three parts—the Yellows, the Browns, and the Blacks. The article concludes that a little more pride is the remedy.
If it is not true that such lines have been drawn, then we have no -added problem to solve; but if it is true, and we ourselves who are black people and live in America, certainly do know then a problem is indeed presented which should be treated dispassionately by every newspaper, organization and church in America. It is the disgrace of the black people and we can not gracefully complain of the white man's smobbishness. It is the case of the mote and the beam. -Dispatch.
CAST OUT THE BEAM
The laboring class of colored people can get together in churches, lodges, etc, but we have yet to see some organization strong and inviting enough to bring professional and business colored folks together in common bonds of friendship and cooperation. The church has failed to do it; the lodge has not proven effective and no other agency, at present known to civilized man, has accomplished this much desired condition. Here we find one with "superior education" and he seeks to stay in a class to himself; there, we find another possessed of lands and lucre, who lifts himself out of association with his common fellows. The professional in his pride withdraws into his shell of selfishness and the possessor of a "going business" just simply "bulges out" with self-respect. The white man is guilty of class creation, but unlike his colored brother, each class contains several members. In almost every community is to be found various classes of colored folk and each of the several classes is composed of ONE MEMBER who takes palms to advertise the fact that the books are closed—and no admission.
We must cast this particular "beam out of our eye" in order that we may see better what obstructs the fairness of vision of the white brother's optics. This is the wrong kind of oneness and needs to be changed into that kind which spells unity. It is just as easy for our white friends to see this falling as it is for us to recognize the fault and it also gives them the knowledge that selfishness, petty jealousies, envy and excessive ego will keep the Negro divided and hence without that cooperative strength necessary to intellectual, social and commercial growth.—Echo.
LAX HOME RULE
There are those who claim that civilization is headed for the rocks, that it cannot long survive if greater care is not taken in the training of the present day youth whose tendencies to win der from the beaten path they blame upon lax home rule.
Whether these persons are unduly pessimistic cannot be definitely said. It is true however, that so far, civilization has never failed to right itself, however far down it may, have so sound to have slumped, though that correction has often taken general limits in its progress.
But speculation upon the result of lack of restraint upon the present day youth is worth while for the seeming extremities to which they are tending are alarming.
The freedom which is now enjoyed by boys and girls of teen age would have been unthinkable a generation ago.
To be allowed to come and go all will would seem to cause the youth to come upon adventures and experiences heretofore met only by adults. To reason that the quality of youthful minds had changed would be to admit that such adventures would be met and handled successfully by them. But does our every day experience teach this?
man sanitariums, poorly born and illegitimate more frequently seen, the ever present object of our pity, the young girl prematurely aged by dissipation give us to feel that inspite of the preachings of the optimistic youth is the same. It cannot meet successfully adventures which try the stamina of those of more mature years.

Then what of the future? What of the parents of the next generation? Surely something akin to the miraculous must happen if, allowed to go unrestrained as they now too offer are, the present generation of children develops that stamina of body and morals which will be necessary to their efficient acceptance of the responsibilities of future civilization.
We have had experience enough to know that the miraculous seldom ever happens. That which we would obtain or accomplish must be planned for, worked for, grown to by a steadily followed and well defined course of action.
Law-abiding, well manned steady grown-up of today is as a rule the child who in his youth was supervised, chaperoned and carefully governed and restrained by his parents. We can foretell the future only as we study the past and examine the present. As we do this now, making due allowance for the greater benefit of environment in the life of the present day youth we are prone to believe that laxity of home rule as we now experience it will not pay satisfactory dividends in terms of strong robust adults of a following generation
No, we do not feel that the world and its civilization is headed for the rocks. We only feel called upon to note a tendency which if followed too long, may result unpleasantly to us and postpone the glorious future which mankind perpetually hope for—Express
WAS PLEDGED TO APPOINT NEGRO
WAS PLEDGED TO APPOINT NEGRO
Calls On Congressman To Make Promis Good
New York, March 28—Nomination of Emile Treville Holley the 17 year-old Negro of No. 102 West 138th street, as a midshipman in the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis was a fulfillment of campaign pledges made by Martin C. Ausorge when he was campaigning in 1920 for the seat he now holds as Representative from the 21st Congressional District. The next election in that district will be next November.
The youth said yesterday that the nomination came as a surprise to him and without his seeking it. He said the first he knew of it was when Mr. Ansorge called him to his office in the Woolworth building two weeks ago for an interview.
The boy explained it this way:
"During all my high school days I was a member of the Inter-High School Association, composed of Negro boys banded to promote the interest of the Negro children in their scholastic work, athletics, &c. When I was graduated last June I was made an honorary member.
"Mr. Ansorge made a lot of speeches up here through Harlem in which he said the first opportunity that came he would nominate a Negro boy for the Naval Academy. Then when the boys of the Inter-Scholastic Association learned appointments were to be made in Mr. Ansorge's district, they got together without my knowing it and nominated me as their choice. "Richard Williams, a senior in Morris High school and President of the association, wrote to Mr. Ansorge reminding him of the speeches he had made and telling him I was the choice of the association.
"At the same time the West Side Republican Club got behind me and between the two organizations lies the credit for having got me the nomination for Annapolis.
"And new I want to go to the Naval Academy just to show what the Negro can do when an opportunity is given. I know it will take a whole lot of tact and perhaps it will be a little rough sledding for a while. But I am willing to take anything just to prove the qualities of the Negro."
He is the fourth Negro to get an appointment in the Naval Academy, but he is the first since the Reconstruction days following the Civil War.
No Negro has ever been graduated from the Academy, as is shown in the history of the institution, written by Park Benjamin, father-in-law of Enrico Caruso. Mr. Benjamin was graduated from Annapolis with the class of 1887.
Navy men were deep in speculation yesterday as to the outcome of the appointment of Holley, should he obtain it. Active service men would not discuss the matter, and even those on the retired list were reticent.

ant at Annapolis in 1872, when the first Negro was appointed, according to Mr. Benjamin's book, "The United States Naval Academy." The appointee had been a messenger in the office of the Secretary of State in South Carolina and was educated in the Avery Normal Institute.
"After a year at the Academy," the book says, "he was found deficient in mathematics and French, and resigned in November 1873." The appointment excited a great deal of popular interest."
Of the effects in the navy, Mr. Benjamin wrote:
Throughout the navy there was considerable contention. It was realized that the problem this suddenly precipitated was one of great gravity. All race and political questions aside, the issue was presented of whether or not a Negro could take his place in the hierarchy of a warship and secure not only the necessary recognition from his immediate associates, but be able to maintain the discipline and enforce the respect incident there to form the crew."
Of events in the academy Mr. Benjamin writes:
"The officers and students at the Naval Academy in 1872 were, however, directly concerned with a practical question. They wisely adopted the policy of non-interference. The new comer was neither coddled nor oppressed but was given a perfectly fair opportunity to demonstrate his own capacities, and he called for precisely the same reason that some of his white comrades failed—for not coming up to the requisite academic standard in two important branches of study."
Mr. Benjamin deplores that the boy was made "the victim of one or two indefensible, personal attacks," one of which was instigated by a hotheaded Southerner. In 1873 a second Negro was appointed from South Carolina, and lie was found deficient and resigned in about six months." The third Negro was appointed in 1874 and was dismissed in less than two months after his arrival for incorrigibly bad behaviour."
Commander Charles A. Adams, U. S. N. who was in charge, of recruiting in the Methropolitan District of New York during the late war, said yesterday that times have changed since the reconstruction days of the Civil war, would have some rough sledding, as his race. He said the joy probably owners had been reappointed and they presented the Negroes. I think as a shipman now than it was then," he said. "At that time a lot of South- "It would be easier for a Negro mid-personal opinion, that this boy may get along all right, but he will have to use a lot of tact.
"We have no precedent to go upon, however, since times are so different since the last Negroes were appointed. This is a thing that will be watched with interest."
James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for Advancement of Colored People, hailed the nomination as a great step forward for the navy is a pretty aristocratic place.
"He must be extremely tactful," said Mr. Johnson, "and he must maintain his self-respect. He must not be a boot-licker, but he must use a lot of self-restraint."
Mr. Johnson cited the case of the late Col. Charles Young, one of four graduates from West Point.
"When Col. Young found that cadets objected to taking food from a plate after it had been passed to a Negro first," he said, "he handed it to them first and then served himself after them. When an inferior officer refused to salute him he saluted the inferior officer. Thus he heaped coals of fire upon their heads."
Holley, with the three other principal nominees and the seven alternates named by Mr. Anorge, will take examinations for the Naval Academy in the Custom House April 19. To pass successfully the nominee must
make 2.5 points out of a possible four in each six subjects—geometry, algebra, arithmetic, English, geography and history. In case a principal falls an alternate will be named. There are supposed to be three alternates for each principal.
Mr. Ansorg explained yesterday that no alternate for Holley were named. "I named all the boys in my district who had applied," he said, "Holley was named as the last principal and the list of alternates had been exhausted when I came to him. If he falls I can name any one of the other alternates or turn to any one not mentioned in that list."
Mr. Ansorge explained yesterday that he given the colored citizens in these appointments.
"I have distributed my appointments throughout the district." he declared. "There were four principals and twelve alternates to be named. I am happy to say that every boy in my district Who applied received an appointment as principal or alternate. In the World War just won colored boys enlisted or were drafted irrespective of race. There were 500,000 colored boys in the army and navy.
"As a matter of simple justice and in recognition of the valor and Americanism of the colored boys in the war I have nominated one to the Naval Academy. Three colored boys already have graduated from West Point, Holley is a fine, clean cut young man, is physically and mentally qualified and was highly recommended by prominent people of both races."
The requirements are based solely on scholarship. Three days are required to complete the tests; which are uniform and sent out from the Naval Academy. The papers are returned to Annapolis, where the members of the faculty grade them.
SUES-FOR LAND CLAIM
New Orleans—The Louisiana Supreme court denied the claim of Frances Scott Glenn, colored of Memphis-Tenn., to one half of the oil land in Chalborne Parish and $20,000,000 recently awarded to Lillie G. Taylor, colored.
The Glenn woman who claimed to be the daughter of Lona McGhee by a second husband, sued George West, in possession of the lands when claimed by Lillie Taylor, and the Gulf Refining Company, who had leased them to bore for oil, for possession of one half of the lands and for all money realized from oil taken from the property. The court in its decision awarded the property to the Taylor woman and declared that the latter was natural daughter of Lona McGee.
The court denied the Glenii woman's suit on the ground that she could not claim the land as property of her father as he had not been placed in possession of it by law, nor was he in possession of it as owner when Lona, McGee dled.

The program was one composed of splendid health talks, better school attendance, reduction of the present tardiness songs that entertained and pleased the large number. The songs were well rendered by the school chorus and bespoke only the careful "preparation of its faithful and progressive teacher. The quartette consisting of the advanced grades of the school rendered some very interesting and touching selections from Negro folk songs. The paper by the secretary of the Parent-Teachers Association was a timely effort of the never tiring worker. She outlined some helpful information endeavoring to impress upon the parents the necessary cooperation with the association in its efforts. Mr. Otto the school attendance officer was present and gave a very helpful and practical talk appealing to the people to have their children attend school regularly that there may be a reduction in the deplorable amount of absent and tardy pupils stressing also the inevitable need of education. The county president of the parent-teachers association was also present and gave a very creditable address on child welfare. She stressed the dangers of under and over-feeding children. It received marked attention and consideration. Mr. W. Du Heart Brown of the Springfield Tergate School was present and delivered a splendid address on the present day needs of an education. A rising vote of thanks was given him for this address. Mrs. Frasier deserves much praise for this noted occasion and the great work she is doing at Thunderholt.

forth many applauses through its patriotic appeal to the women to not hush their cries for the ballot until equal justice is given her. Eljitor Sherman was called upon. He gave much information and exalted the women to not be over-confident in themselves, but prepare to stand the severe onslaught which naturally arises in politics. Rev. J. Moore was also asked to make a few remarks. He responded and his talk was indeed a timely one; urging the women to see to it that their sons and husbands put their names on the registration books in order that they might better protect them. He said that the young girls should register and see to it that their beau do the same as being a registered voter is a true standard for young manhood. Then came the speaker of the evening, the Rev. Arnold D. Gregory, pastor of the First Congregational church. His subject "Conscientiousness in politics" was delivered with eloquence and power; full of information and inspiration that he held the audience spell-bound. Among the many bringing to bear on the people the necessity of their being full-fledged citizens and organizing their forces Through his definition of the word politics. The keynote of this wonderful rational people could be eliminated from politics. He said if politics is full of sin and shame there is where the minister is needed: If the community is affected by the lack of educational system or sanitarium or moral evils its duty of the minister and church to bring about better conditions. The keynote of this wonderful subject was unity organization and honors of purpose. The music which consisted of solos, quartettes and choir music was charming and soul-stirring. The chairman made a few remarks on registering and returning poll tax. She asked that this be done at once. It cost nothing to register and make returns. All who have paid poll tax was requested to let same remain for 1922 poll which is returnable now. Let our slogan be 5000 registered voters by April 10th. There is a purpose.

Baton Rouge, La., March 28—Gov. Parker issued to-day an appeal to the law officers of Louisiana to suppress "with an iron hand the evil of Ku Kluxism wherever it raises its head." He said this action had been taken in view of the repeated complaints which had come to him, from various sections of the state.
The Governor sold that at the approaching session of the legislature he would appeal to that body to enact a law "making it a felony for any man to hide behind a mask to drag the good name of this state in the mire and bring contempt for law and civilization." Gov. Parker's statement added:
"There is no place in Louisiana for Ku Kluxism, Bolshevism, radicalism or any other 'ism' that allows to destroy peace and order. The idea that any set of men may with impunity disregard the authority of the courts and set law at defiance in order to correct some evil or punish some evil-doers secretly, and generally undercover of darkness, is absolutely foreign to proper conceptions of democratic government which seeks to establish unity for the common good.
There is no such thing as popular justice. It is popular injustice, because it brings law into contempt, leads to class distinction and racial hatred, and makes judges and juries mere figureheads. Where there is no civilization there may be need sometimes for corrective measures on the part of the masses, but in government like ours you cannot take the law in your own hands for any purpose whatever without working absolute injustice and undermining the foundation of order."
NEGRO KEPT OUT HOME 5 YEARS
Purchased Home Which Was. Bumbed
Chicago, Ill. April 28—(Associated Negro Press)—Much interest is being manifested in the editorial in the Tribune last week which called attention to the rarity with which bombers are caught.
The echo of the first bomb thrown against a colored home in Chicago is reverberative just now throughout the second and third wards, and its ghost threatens to react to the serious disadvantage of the man who is pointed out as the central figure in the outrage.
Just seven years ago Charles Davis, a federal employee, now deceased, and his wife, a teacher in the city schools, purchased a house on Forrestville Ave. in the 45th block, a neighborhood in which no colored people had lived. When the time came for them to take possession, they parked their belongings in two huge vans and drove up to the door of their new home. An angry mob greeted them with hoots and inside the house they found a cordon of police drawn up for the purpose of refusing them admission to their own property.
Investigation showed that powerful influence had reported to the police that the new owners had already sold the property. A furore was created. The daily papers carried glowing and seemingly gleeful accounts of the humiliation and embarrassment which this family suffered in gaining entrance to their purchase. The whole city watched the progress of the battle
The outgoing white tenant refused to turn the key over to Mr. and Mrs. Darley, but took it to the Woolf Real Estate Co., which had sold the property. One of the neighbors who had been active in the crowd surrounding the house offered the service of his car and when she had surrendered the key, took it from the ring in the real estate office without permission. He then refused to give the key to Mr. and Mrs. Darley who have never been able to gain possession, despite that for five years one of the most prominent attorneys of the race had their case in court without action. Since that the Darleses have been marked and have been bombed in their home at 4639 Vincennes Ave. on three different occasions. The Tribune is right in its statement that none of the actual bombers have been apprehended.
KU KLUX THREATENS
Negro Girl To Manage Her Own Business
Kansas City, March 28-Although she is only twenty, Sarah Rector, one of the richest Negroes in the United States, has handled the more than $750,000 worth of property she owns with such usuteness that application for the appointment of a guardian for her has been denied.
Judge Jules E. Gutnotte of the Probate Court, in deciding the girl was competent to take care of her own money, complimented her highly on her intelligence and thrift.
Sarah's wealth was derived from her allotment in the great Cushing oil fields, one of the best fields in Oklahoma. She received this allotment under the Creek Indian Act, which gave Negroes held as slaves by Indians the same property rights as their masters. The allotment yields an annual income of between $30,000 and $40,000. A large part of the revenue Sarah has invested in Liberty bonds and farm land are valued at nearly $100,000.
Sarah, who is a pure blooded Negro, lives with her parents in what was once one of the most fashionable districts of the city, but is now being taken over by the wealthier Negroes. Apparently Sarah supplies both the funds and the financial genius for the family, and she manages the household well and economically. She owns an automobile, not pretentious but good, and in the matter of dress is about on a par with the average girl of her age. She is a high school graduate, but she did not wid any honors at school.
the church and that unless the pastor, Rev. A. LaPlante left Beaumont, he would be whipped, tarred and feathered. The congregation is thoroughly alarmed and parents are afraid to send their children to the parochial school. The pastor has defied the klan and prominent citizens have promised support.

"GORGEOUS" ONLY WAX TO DESCRIBE "QUEEN OF SHEBA"
In keeping with all the accounts and traditions of splendor and magnificence attending the arrival of the Queen of Sheba at the court of King Solomon, more than three thousand years ago, is the spectacular photodrama "Queen of Sheba," which opens Monday at The Savannah Theatre for a run of one week. The sensual success of this remarkable William Fox super-special in its opening run on Broadway. New York is easily understood by all who see the picture.
Scene after scene of extraordinary power and splendor kept the audience gasping with surprise and admiration, and more than once cheering was heard—a thing to which motion picture audiences are not prone except when profoundly stirred.
Belty, Blythe was a regally beautiful Sheba, Fritz Lieber an effective and convincing King Solomon, Nell Craig a dashing and fascinating Princess Vashil, and other members of the notable cast gave excellent portrayals.
As a stupendous spectacle, "Queen of Sheba" is unsurpassed. As a photoplay presenting a great love story with the utmost power of appeal, it is a dramatic triumph of the screen. William Fox, J. Gordon Edwards, the director, and all others who have had the privilege of taking

LIBERIAN LOAN MEANS CONTROL
Fight Started To Defeat Legislation
Washington, March 28—Back of the legislation pending in Congress for a loan of $5,000,000 to Liberla is an iron-fad agreement for the use of part of the money in settling up long standing securities held by a large group of New York and European bankers and to give the United States almost dominating interest in the control of affairs of that country.
Hints of this were brought out this morning at a first hearing by the committee of Ways and Means. A fight has been started to defeat the legislation, the desire for which was made known a few months ago by President Harding to a few Congressmen at a White House dinner. Liberia is commonly known as the proposed "haven" for Negroes of the United States. President Monroe is said to have first suggested that they be encouraged to go there. Con
gressmen say they know no new movement along this line, but they think the proposed loan and agreement would encourage development, if not further colonization.
Confidential information has been laid before the Ways and Means Committee from the State Department which shows, among other things, that this government proposed in an agreement between the Secretary of State and the Liberian Plenary Commission on Oct. 28, 1921, to make advances of about $1,700,000 to cover Liberia's indebtedness.
Of this, are shown to the committee, about $1,650,000 is to take up securities held by J. P. Morgan & Co., Kuhn, Loeb & Co., the National City Bank of New York and the First National Bank of New York, acting for themselves; Robert Fleming & Co., Banque de Paris et des Pays Bas, M. M. Warburg & Co., and Hope & Co., acting for others not mentioned.
The advance of $1,650,000 to Liberia would enable it to purchase or redeem all of its bonds now issued and outstanding representing the 5 per cent. sinking fund gold loan that was due July 1, 1952, under the agreement, dated March 7, 1922, for refunding the loan of the foregoing named holders.
About $30,000 would go toward repaying advances heretofore made under the Second Liberty Loan Act. Other parts of the loan would go toward improving the transportation and commercial facilities of the country. An immediate advance of $48,000 is suggested to enable Liberia to begin immediate execution of the plan. All advances would constitute "a direct liability and obligation of Liberia."
Inquiries this morning about the purpose of the advance under the Liberty Loan Act brought information from F. M. Dearing, assistant secretary of state, that $26000 of it was to pay the expenses of the Liberian delegation to the Darls Peace Conference. Attacks were made today on the creation of a Financial Commission. It was brought out that one of the things to be accomplished for keeping order would be the creation of a Liberian Army and absolute control of customs by the United States.
The members of the Financial Commission would be designated by the President of the United States and appointed by the President of Liberia and would include: a Financial Commissioner at a salary of $15,000 a year a Deputy Financial Commissioner at $10,000 an auditor at $0,000, three administrative assistants at $6,000 each, ten administrative assistants at $4,000 each.
The hearing will be resumed Friday and members will inquire of State Department officials the extent of the
Branch Office, 817 West Broad St., Savannah, Georgia
proposed control, of legislation and finances and of conscessions for developing the resources of the country.
