AMERICA DIS- GRACED BY LYNCHING Methodist Bishops clare It Must Betterly Abolished. Hot Springs, Ark. May 17—The official weight of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, numbering two and a quarter million members, was thrown into the balance against lynching by the Quadrennial Address of the College of Bishops to the General Conference now in session here. Have the nation endure the mendible zeal" in the effort to reduction and on the remarkable progress made by the race since it emerged from slavery, the bishops continue: "We urge our people to do all they can for the uplift of the Negroes in preparation for a safe and helpful citizenship. This implies that they shall have complete justice where their lawful rights are concerned. We especially urge that everything possible be done to prevent lynchings, which are no less a disgrace to those who engage in them than they are an outrage upon the helpless victims. This crime of course, which is not only a complete subversion of law but a complete rejection of the life of law, is all absurdly mutilated in the eyes of others civilized nations and brought undying obloquy upon many of the States of the Union. It is hoped that the States will continue to lechlade against this shameful crime and that the public conscience will be speedily so aroused that it will be utterly abolished." MRS.

C., May 17th (Associated Negro Press)—Dr. Lumnett J. Scott, Secretary of the National Negro Business League since its formation by Booker T. Washington, and one of the virile forces of the organization, has resigned after twenty-one years of continuous service. In his letter of resignation addressed Dr. Robert R. Moton President and Bishop R. R. Jones, chairman of the Executive Committee, Dr. Scott says. "I have reluctantly come to the conclusion that the duties and responsibilities which now press upon me, requires that I give up some of the activities which in the past have challenged me and aid support. "It is for that reason I am writing now, so that the work of the league may be unhindered and that you gentle men representing the National organization may know that I shall not be in position to do during the coming three and one-half mouths the same amount of work I have carried on in the past, in the interest of the league. The commanding place that Howard University is now taking in the University world is calling for all of my mental and physical resources. We are attempting to lay broad foundations for this National University of the colored people of America, and I must give up some of my present activities. I am therefore requesting that the Executive Committee accept my resignation as Secretary of the League to take effect at once. I am also relating as an officer of the Business League. I wish to convey to you and through you to the organization itself, my sincere thanks for the fine opportunities which have been presented for me to cooperate with some of the most enterprising of our forward looking men and women. I have not given up my thought that the program outlined at St. Louis before the National Negro Business League in 1919 is a workable one. We have been unable to carry out that program with the meager finances of the Business League. It seems to me that it will ultimately be necessary for an organizations along business lines to effectively put over this program, and I shall be interested in such a program. I shall always be interested in the Business League and its works and only regret that the cares and responsibilities I am shouldering prevent me from beings as actively connected with the organization in the future as in the past. "Last August at Atlanta I was very appended at the end of my twenty-one years of service as an officer of the National Negro Business League my unanimous relection by suspension of the rules as Secretary of the organization. I shall always treasure that the action of the National organization" Dr Scott's retirement comes as a shock to the business interests of the country. He has been efficiently active for so long that his connection with the league seemed a certainty upon which to build. Considerable interest and speculation is amused by the question "who will succeed him" The Savannah Tribune.

Ausgeorger among his Negro constituents in Harlem last March as a candidate for the Naval Academy at Amapolis, to be commissioned in the Failed States Navy, has failed to pass the mental examinations for admission, which he took in April at the Custom House here. The official results were issued at Amapolis. Holley has not heard of it when a reporter him yesterday afternoon at his home, No. 102 West 185th street. He was reluctant to believe it. "But I haven't heard anything about it from my Congressman," he said slowly, "Aren't you sure it's true." When he was assured he sat a long time rubbing his forehead. In the beginning he made one or two resful accusations who he later withkrew. Holley he found the English examination easy and believed he had done well in the history and geography. He was doubtful about arithmetic, algebra and geometry. He had not reviewed these subjects since high school study four years ago and had not been able to finish the test.

The Following (Immencement day program will be rendered: Negro Illiteracy North And South Has Been Reduced Twenty Per Cent During Last Decade Washington, D. C. May 17—The public schools of the South are making progress in clinlating illiteracy among the Negroes. The 1920 census showed about 300,000 less colored illiterates than that of 1910. In 1910 the percentage of colored illiteracy in the South was 32.5. In 1920 it had 36.5. In 1930, 1,753,000 Negroes who cannot write. Georgia has the greatest number of those illiterates, 261,115, a percentage of 29.1. Louisiana with 206,730, had the highest percentage of illiteracy, 33.5. Other states which still have great masses of colored illiterates are Alabama, with 210,690, or 31.3 percent, Missouri, with 265,615, or 29.3 percent, and South Carolina with 131,422 or 29.3 percent. Every Southern state showed a marked reduction in illiteracy between 1910 and 1920. Every Northern state also showed a decrease. This would indicate that the Negroes migrating were mostly able to read, otherwise they would have increased the illiteracy in the North. The percentage of illiteracy among Northern Negroes is less than among Southern Negroes, being 20 per cent in the South and 10 per cent in the North. Every Southern State also showed a marked increase in the proportion of Negro children in school. For the South as a whole slightly over half of the Negro children are reported in school, while in the North slightly over 60 per cent are in school. FLORIDA BRANCH OF ANTI-KLAN FORMED Jacksonville, Fl., May 10—(Press-News Service) W. D. McNamara, a retired physician of South Jacksonville, announced organization in this state of a division of the United Americans, a movement started in Texas some time ago to oppose the nativism and nn-American activities of the infamous Ku Klux Klan.

SENATOR KING OPPOSES LOAN TO-1 Washington, D. C., May 16—(Precison News Service)—Opposition to any further loans to the Haitian government until Senate Investigation committee reports was expressed in a resolution introduced last Friday by Senator King, a Democrat from Utah. He stated that American officials in Haiti were attempting to negotiate a loan of sixty millions of dollars to Haiti. Such a loan, Mr. King said, would cause military occupation of the domination of Haiti by the United States for the next sixty years. Vice President Changes Attitude—Victory-For N. A. A. C. P. Washington D. C. May 2—The United States Bank at 14th and You streets, which carries on deposits a great deal of money belonging to the colored people of Washington was converted to a broader policy yesterday when it attempted to dictate to D. Carlos, the tenant in one of its adjoining stores, what color the persons must be whose shoes were shined in D. Di Calo, a most genteelly and mired-minded Italian, rents from the United States bank the adjoining store and carries on the business of shoe-making and shoe shining and who employs several colored men. A colored man was recently refused a shine in the shop and on investigation found out that Mr Zepp, vice president of the bank, had told the proprietor of the bank that he would like to buy more shoes of colored persons would cause him to lose possession of his store. Shelby J. Davidson, the energetic executive secretary of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., was sought in the matter and he paid a visit to Mr. Zepp. Mr. Zepp was quite open in his admission that he had caused the order to be issued. He was not accustomed to seeing colored people and white people treated alike and together. As a matter of fact he himself was much chagrined to have to sit at times between colored people when he had his shoes shined. And as colored people were deprived of many of the rights in Washington, he politely persevered and thought that the people should obtain in the bootlash shop. Mr. Davidson, however, gently but firmly and politely suggested that the many colored patrons of the bank who carried heavy accounts there might not agree with him in his opinion, nor favor his attitude. A few hours later, after Mr. Zepp and the president of the bank had received several telephone calls of protest against such petty segregation and discrimination. Mr. Zepp underwent a change of heart (or mind) and calling up a representative of the association, advised him that the order to DI Carlos had been enforced, including that he should as well as white adults have their shoes shined in the store and offered his apologies to the colored people of Washington for misunderstanding them and their keen appreciation of their rights. And, so was a lion tamed—Washing ton American. PROGRESS OF NEGROES VERY ENCOURAGING Tuskegee Institute, AL, May 17th (Associated Negro Press)—I have never been more proud of the fact that I am a Negro than since I have been at Tuskegee Institute" said Frank L. Gillespie, of Chicago in addressing the 2000 students and teachers of Tuskegee Institute. "I see on all sides indications of race progress which are very discouraging, but I am not Negro; these earnest Negro boys and girls striving to prepare themselves for useful citizenship and this highly trained faculty, composed of Negroes, struggling for the up- lift of the race, inspire me more than I can here express. When I see all these things, I can readily realize why it is that most of the successful business men and women, whom I have met in travelling over, have relied on me for a portion of their training at Tiskegee Institute." Mr Gillespie, who is president of the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Chicago, has been at the Institute for several days. The Liberty Life Insurance has taken its place among the leading enterprises of the race. It was organized in the field with $800,000 worth of Insurance in operation and employs one hundred men and women of the race and offers opportunities, to others who are training for business careers. Colored Man's Great Achievement Cinclmann, May 16-Communication by radio telephones between moving trains is the goal of Fletcher H. Hiles, colored steward on a Big Four club car operating between Cinclmann and Cleveland. Hiles recently installed a receiving set on his car and found it would operate successfully with the train running at full speed. He holds a government license as an amateur radio operator. Hiles first had results with radio on his car ten days ago. He has since learned the technicalities or receiving so well that he can devote all his spare time to experiments in sending messages between his train and another that follows it on the Big Four line. When interviewed in his car Hiles talked glibly of radio and showed himself capable of explaining anything in connection with his set. Even the railroad men who have made the Chinchaff-Cleveland trip on the same car with him since he began his experiments drew round in an interested circle and nodded ready confirmation when he told of the various broadcasting stations he has succeeded in picking up while on the road. Hiles receiving set has attracted much attention on the club car, and the head phones are always in great demand when he is tuned in to receive music or other broadcasted material. DR. JONES APPEALS FOR UNDERSTANDING Local Organizations are Solving Problems In .... Various States. Atlanta, Ga., May 16—(Preston News service)—Air appeal for better interracial and international understanding was made by Dr. M. Ashby Jones, pastor the Ponce de Leon Baptist church and chairman of the Commission of Inter-Hacial Cooperation, at a mass meeting in the Central Ave. A, M. A. E. church here last Thursday. Mr. G. S. Jones with Bishop I. B. Scott presidigl. Dr Jones urged that wherever there is disagreement, whether between races or nations, the only possible means of solving the problems involved is for both groups to get together and come to a common basis of understanding and action. "The enemy of our civilization of America," he said, is the man who can't try to agree. We want him to try to agree. Going off alone, laying out its own regulations and then saying this is the agreement." He cited a number of instances where local organizations of both whites and Negroes already had solved numerous problems in various states. He pointed out then when the Atlanta organization began to consider its problems it found that many of the so-called "race problems" could be set aside as merely problems of human adjustment and in nowise connected with the question of race or color. "Mr. Jones," said Mr. Jones, we are seriously on the job organizing interracial committees in Texas and from Florida to Texas and from Virginia to Arkansas. We are organizing these groups of whites and Negroes not only to prevent trouble but that they may build together. We have been five years on the job, we have accomplished much but there is much yet to be done." The conference closed Friday night with a mass meeting at which the principal speaker was Prof. P. O'Connell, whose topic was, "The Development of Democracy Through 'the Negro.' A musical program was furnished by the choral society of Clark University. Small Crowd Hear Ethel Waters Co. The Black Swan Troubadour headed by Ethel Waters, "toured our Blues Singers," appeared here Monday night at the municipal auditorium. The crowd which was present to hear the famous Negro phonograph star and the company, was disappointing in being the third hundred persons in the audience. Miss Waters led up to her reputation and her numbers were very generously applauded. Her renditions went big and her interpretation of blues singing was indeed refreshing. Her stage demeanor was most pleasing and her departure from the shouting, hollowing sort of blues singers we have heard in the past to hearing a source of much pleasure to the local music lovers. Occupying a position of equal importance on the program with Miss Waters was Ethel Williams, eccentric dancer, whose performance was easily the best ever seen here by a Negro dancer; in fact, her dancing was by far the outstanding feature of the first performance she has ever seen, a graceful exponent of the art of toe-dancing and her turn was a particularly bright "spot on the evening's program. She was assisted by Roscoo Williams. The Black Swan Jazz Masters, headed by F. H. Henderson, pianist and musical director of the troup, were very entertaining. Other numbers on her program were Smith-Muncey DeForest and Virginia Smith, known as "The Little Different Trifo," Raymond Green, xylophonist, and Anderson and Gay. The troup left Wednesday morning for Columbia, S.-C. RACE WOMAN IN SENATE RACE Duluth, Minn.

NEWS After all there is something pathetic about us as a group of citizens who are striving for community betterment, social uplift and economic freeing white civilization. We thoughtdom in competition with an on-marchlessly invest our small earnings in schemes an drentrutes for one thing or another and when an insignificant thing gets in our way, a misunderstanding or a peculiar situation confronts us we, irrespective of the time energy or money invested, throw up our hands and swear all is lost, when the remedy for all or each of the above named conditions lies in our own hands. The Young Men's Christian Association is the point in kind to which we refer. For years Savannah Negroes have felt that they wanted a X. M. C. A. Years of time, energy and money have been expended in this direction. Many complaints have been made that we have not seen anything for our investment. Up to a year or so ago this feeling was generally felt, which was indeed a truth to some extent, but the small amount of money previously invested, did not and could not bring about the desired results. Sometimes during 1910 an apparently acute feeling possessed the community for a final issue in this direction, and it seemed that at last the hopes and strivings for years would terminate successfully. Large pledges were made by the business, professional men and other citizens. Many of these pledges were paid and others, in fact, the great majority, stand unpaid. There is no nee din going into a big discussion as to why these pledges remain unpaid. The promoters now stand aloof and give excuses for not supporting the work. Upward of seven thousand dollars have been expended in the last two years in the purchasing of property and maintenance, over three thousand dollars being paid toward the purchase of the building site alone. It does not stand to reason that so many cause, care not how great or frivolous that the Negroes of Savannah would be so thought less o rindifferent that they would allow all the money spent for this venture to be thrown away as poor as we are and laboring under the handicaps that we do. The property of the association is the possession of the people of Savannah, not any individual or group and the people are the last word when it comes to using, maintaining or operating its own utility. It is propitious to assume that an interest large as that of the Young Men's Christian Association, with the large amount of money/invested, should be turned over to one man or group of men, he or they made responsible for its success. Should its Indebtedness receive all the abuse and criticism and when apparent failure comes we say "I told you so," but if we look closely we will find that it is due almost entirely to a lack of close supervision and cooperation on the part of those concerned. It stands a fact, that if this effort falls it will be another generation before the Negroes of Savannah can successfully promote another ventures of this kind. Let the people think about this matter and whatever conclusion reached, let us he sure It is a wise decision. D.Zoslow's Old Stand 216 West Broad Mary Ann STOP! THINK! LOOK! BANKRUPT SALE OF D.

Florenzo Zeigfeld, of the Midnight Profile Tame and the man who gave Bert Williams the chance to show the world that the race had really produced the best comedian in the country. Is planning something that will startle Broadway. STOP! BANK OF D.

Some of the most beautiful colored girls are with the company, and under the able direction of Will Volery, the best musical arranger on Broadway and Neil Wayburn the girls are going through their paces preparatory to being the indirect cause of a sensation when it becomes generally known. It is understood that Zeigfeld is prepared to take the same firm stand for the girls that he did for Bert Williams when some of the white performers in his company threatened to quit when they learned that Williams would be not only a memoir of the Frolic but a bright and particular star. Zeigfeld called them all together and when he was advised that each and every member of his famous Profiles were within earshot, he announced that if any of those present felt they could not work with Mr. Williams they had better step forward and present their resignation as it was his intention to continue his plans for making money regardless of the personal opinion of his employees. Not a soul moved forward. To the contrary, they all tried to litenly fall over themselves telling Mr. Zeigfeld what a pleasure it was to work with Bert Williams, Mr. Zeigfeld never had any trouble after that.

THE ASSOCIATED MILKCO PRESS FIRST IN SERVICE PINCHOT WINS PENNSYLVANIA Hon. Gifford Pinchot has won the Republican, nomination for governor of Pennsylvania over the old regulars. This means his election, for Pennsylvania is a banner Republican state. Mr. Pinchot, like Mr. Beveridge of Indiana is of the Roosevelt school and it means that they will be against any reactionary principle in the party. The nomination of Mr. Beveridge of Indiana over President Harding's friend Nunez and that of Mr. Pinchot over the machine in Pennsylvania has not added any laurels to the national administration. Both of these nominations are failed with pleasure by the thinking colored Republicans who can not agree with Mr. Harding's attitude, so far, towards the race. His fairly recognition of worthy colored men flanked with the flagrant action of his national committee in the Georgia case, and the forging and continuous recognition of Mr. Phillips, in the face of the serious charges that have been known more than nine months ago will be the means of causing our voters to become lukewarm and resentful. NEW ENTRANTS IN THE FIELD During the present month there will be hundreds of new entrants into the various fields of endeavor. They come as strangers, because they are to enter for the first time upon their life's work from a field of preparation. These hundreds of young people whom the closing days of school are pushing out into the world, are going to take their places along side of the thousands who for years have been facing the humps and knocks of life. They are going to face the stern results of life in making a way for themselves. Their will be but a duplicate of the efforts of thousands who have preceded time. They will have numerous obstacles to surmount and they will meet with first one refusal and then the other, all of which will put to a test their motto. They are the chosen youth of the land. They have been given the best which was to be had in the form of training and they have been adjudged president in this training. Now they are to be turned out into the world to shift for themselves and it will juke them as to their fitness. They must however, be given a chance to make good. They should not be judged too severely, for it takes time to satisfactorily accomplish any change in life. There will be problems which will confront many of these newcomers of which they have never even dreamed and they should be given at least time to adjust themselves to their new surroundings. Their tasks will be hard and tedious, but in most instances they will be able to successfully surmount them, if only they are given time and encouragement by those with whom they are to work. Their school training has been but a course of preparation, and now that they have successfully accomplished the tasks of this period of training they must face the realities of every day life and put into practice the lessons learned during this schooling. Success in their various pursuits will be assured if they buckle down to business and leave behind them those things which count for naught. Their day of play has passed and now they are face to face with the problems of making life a success or a failure. The former will crown their efforts, if they stick tenuously to the tasks set before them, but if they enter half-heartedly into their work they will be adjudged failures. EDITORIAL EXCERPTS Commenting on the last fad reported by cable from the other side, of a henna bath for the purpose of effecting a change of complexion, the Greensboro Daily News said somewhat carelessly. In order to achieve a complexion of olive hair, ultra society women in London have started a henna bath cult. This tints their skin in such fashion as makes it look well with evening dresses of oriental design and shades, now very popular in the British capital. In other words, a "high yuller" skin is the latest ambition of a lot of white women. A correspondent sent us the above clipping with the remark that the editorial only goes to prove that the Negro is not the only race that ages other folks and tries, sometimes, to shake off racial peculiarities. For warmth and variety of coloring the Negro race in America can lay it all over any other race in the world. With the growth of artistic taste and exotic standards of beauty, the favorite type of complexion may well be found within the ranks of this race. As a noted explorer and scientist recently pointed out, the highest type of black whitish was found among In the mean time, as a morsel of consolation for the current prepossession in favor of bleached skins, it is well to remember those two old saws to the effect that "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder" and Handsome is as handsome does." - The Age. "SPARROW LEG DUDES" ONE thousand women against five hundred men of our group are qualified voters of this county! Shame on the good-for-nothing Negro men of this county! We are heartily ashamed of this condition, and it is hoped that our men will get on the registration books. Our hats are off t our good-women. They are entitled to the plaudits of our people. See those sparrow-leg dudes strutting about in fine shoes and "punch backs" on Sunday? Not one out of two hundred can vote. Same is true of the gallly beaked dudines. What do the leaders—preachers and others—think of this? Somebody must shoulder, this responsibility along with the worthless slacker brigade.—Augusta Regulator. LEARN THE LESSON AI seems that the United States of America is about to throw off the heavy depression that has paralyzed its business during the last two years. Textile industries are beginning to put on steam, the foreign trade relations are improving and the demands for American commodities are increasing to such proportions that greater supplies must be produced. It means that America is awakening from the throes of the reaction from the late World War. The American black man must wake up with other groups which make up this polygot nation. It is imperative that he wisely survey the economic and financial situation and map out a plan to better his own condition. During halcyon financial days immediately following the war, the black man earned fabulous wages and entered into industrial fields that had hitherto been closed to him. He unwisely wasted the money that came his way and naturally suffered severely when the inevitable lean days followed. Several of his strongest banks irreversibly failed, many of his strongest mercantile organizations went into bankruptcy and receivership. Poverty suffering and misery reigned supreme. The black man, while no different from other groups, was less able to stand the shock and his resources were less fertile. The only practical benefit that he derived was the grim, cold-blooded lesson that he learned in the school of experience. The lesson the black man learned is the lesson that all races sooner or later must learn and that is practical economy alone can build up the structure of sound business. Practical economy like the beginning of all solit success and progress begins in the home. The Japanese are unwelcome in California because they know how to live cheaper than the native Americans. It has been proven by experiment that Japanese can live on about fifty per cent of the requirements of the white Americans, the wily Nippon never having seen the wanton waste and destruction of American unprofidence found it easier to economize than the native black man who was born within in the view of the white man's lavishness. The black man has seen and felt the result of his wild spending and is now in position to face the situation with intelligence. The Grecians and Italians who come to this country are able to accumulate because the soft lap of luxury that rocks the white man does not perturb them. They are able to live on a leaf of bread and lucius onion until they are able to enter intelligently into the broader avenues of business. If the overhead cost of living is cut by the black to the smallest possible margin and the glady whirl of night life are disregarded he will soon be able to establish credit relations with recognized institutions who regard him now with holy horror. The business boom and the new blood in the industrial and financial world means that the black man must start off to do things by a new method. The lessons of practical economy cannot be taught alone by newspapers. They must be taught in the churches, schools and all public institutions. The banks are waiting to receive the smallest pittance that the black people able to deposit, and if every margin of waste and extravagance is cut by the black man now, perhaps in the near future we will not be known as the world's biggest beggars—Chicago Whip. ANNUAL CLOSNIG OF CENTRAL PARK NORMAL INSTITUTE Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute held its tenth annual closing exercises Wednesday at Woods Hall.

The Metronome Orchestra furnished delightful music for the occasion. The welcome address by Dr. H. M.

This had become the case of Hattie, a brown-complexioned woman of thirty-five years of age, not being married, and having these in he ragnificant presence. On the other hand, a dark handsome fellow, Lawson, being a highly educated man of forty years of age, being a debator, orator and critic, and being single, is the personage upon whom we shall speak of in connection with Miss Hattie. This being the case, we now proceed wherein we listen to the words of an enthusiastic woman and an intellectual man of philosophy: "Lawson, you can not deceive me with your thoughts!" "Hold your tongue, hold your tongue; not so loud!" "I exchin as loud as I please, for I am Hattie, whereupon 'Hattie' do as she desires!" "Well, you are a woman; such must be expected from you!" "Listen to me, Lawson! You speak as if I am the inferior of man; you have also spoken as if you know everything. But you are mistaken, because you are wrong in many ways. For instance, just to show you that you are wrong you have said that everybody is a slave and that a man who is in love with a woman is the greatest of all modern slaves, especially when he marries her You are wrong, wrong, Lawson! I am not going to listen to you any longer!" "You will listen to me; you will let me explain to you, showing you that I Lawson, am not wrong, but that I am right, so far as the philosophy of reasoning is concerned Thus I do give a profound and comprehension to you as follows Man is the greatest of all modern slaves when he marries a woman because he has to work more than the single man who works simply for the existence of himself; more over, when his wife desires refinement, such as aptent furniture, magnificent clothes, a fine car, a superior house, he must work like a king's slave in order to comply with her wishes Yes, I do yet say that this man is the greatest of all modern slaves! "Ha, ha, a husband is not a husband, but a slave? What poor reasoning for a man of high intellectuality! Nevertheless, Lawson, will you be my greatest of all modern slaves, my husband?" "Yes, my love, for I am a modern dare among glaves" CHORUS GIRLS AT A PREMIUM New York, N. Y., May 10th (Preston News Service)—With Zeigfeld taking twelve of the prettiest, "Shuffle Mong" still shuffling, and the Coleman Brothers getting ready to present the Creole Dollis Revue "chorus girls find themselves in great demand these days, especially if they are good looking.

May 17th (Associated Negro Press)—Asked what his attitude toward colored people was, tifford Pinchot, candidate for governor stated: It has been asked what is my attitude toward the colored people of Pennsylvania. It goes without saying that they should be accorded all the political and civil rights that our other citizens enjoy. I believe with Roosevelt "that the door of hope should not be closed to any man on account of his color" and I believe with him in "all men up" and no man down. As governor I will earnestly strive to give due consideration to a Roosevelt square deal to every man, woman and child in the State. "Finally, I assure you that I will make no promise to the colored people of Pennsylvania which I will not perform."

CONGRESSMAN DYER ADDRESSES AUDIENCE Boston, Mass., May 17th (Associated Nern Press)—The coloured people of Massaged betts were urged to take the anti-lynching bill to the polls, this fall and defeat Senator Lodge for re-election, unless he got behind the measure, in a speech made in Unity House by Congressman Dyer, who is the author of the anti-lynching bill, which has passed the House and is now with a Senate Subcommittee, spoke under the auspices of the Boston chapter of the N. A. A. C. P. Moorefield Store president, and James Weldon Johnson, national secretary of the association, also spoke. "Let Senator Lodge know," the Congressman appealed, "that the colored people of Massachusetts, men and women, are standing together for the protection of their race, which cannot protect itself; that you look to him for favorable consideration of the bill, and that if nothing is done you will hold him responsible. "You have, more power than any other section of the country in this great fight, because Senator Lodge, the leader of the Senate, like every other public official, must get the votes of the people. "This Senate has it in its power to pass this bill, and if the Senate does not pass it every Republican Senator that comes up for election this fall ought to be defeated. The Republican Party is committed to such an anti-touching measure by the platform adopted at Chicago, and its fate is in the hands of this Republican Senate. "The colored people in this State have enough votes to decide whether a Republican Senator shall be elected or not. Although I am a Republican, I would gladly vote for a Democrat if he were willing to help in this great cause." The audience, which completely filled the hall, was aroused to excited applause by the speaker's exhortations.

EDITOR SMITH AROUSING CONSIDERABLE INTEREST Grand Rapids, Mich., May 17 (Associated Negro Press) - Editor George M. Smith of the Michigan State News by araming considerable interest by championing a new name for the race. The editor states that a proper name for us is "Ethican," and used the name throughout this journal. He defines Ethican as follows: "Ethican" - An American Citizen of the United States of Ethiopian descent commonly though incorrectly called "Negro" being a combination of "17h," the first sylable in Ethiopia, and "lecan" the last sylable in Ameri IT IS LEFT TO KEARNS New York, May 16 (Preslon News Service) - The latest bit of news氨 the meeting of Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills came from Montreal, Canada, a few days ago. It is to the effect that everything is all set for a fight to be staged by the Chamber of Commerce in a baseball park in the Canadian city and the gate is estimated at over a million If Dempsey is willing to crawl from behind the color line and show the world he isn't the biggest ham that ever paraded as a champion. It is said that the white man will be guaranteed $400,000 with a percentage of course, and as is the custom, the colored brother, to prove that he is a real fighter will have to accept almost anything to get the white fighter in the ring. And in spite of the tempting offer many fight fans entertain serious doubt of Dempsey accepting. He would rather fight some of the European near-pugilists for much less money than face a real fighter—Wills AMUSEMENTS May 19.

American Giants, Indianapolis A. B. Cs. Kansas City Monarchs, Cuban Stars, Detroit Stars, Pittsburgh Keystones, Tate Stars, St. Louis Stars, Mr. Nunn says, "I pick Chicago to again lead the race owing to the fact that Manager A. B. Foster has kept practically his entire 1921 championship team intact. In addition to that, the winning combination headed by the foxy, crafty Foster, is one of the greatest aggregation of colored players in the country. Although they will meet with great opposition they will doubleless win again. "The A. B. C's, managed by Ben Taylor, will finish second. Charles-tou's return to the fold together with the wealth of promising pitching material, and the return of the nucleus of the old team should keep them in the running. "Kansas City, with its great outfield and pitching staff, should give A. B. C's and American Giants a close race for one-two-three honors. "Cuban and Detroit Stars will fight it out for the other position in the first division. Peway is now managing Detroit, and their opening series gives every indication that the two teams are about evenly matched. "Then comes the Pittsburgh Keystone. Tate Stars and St. Louis Stars in the order named. St. Louis has just come through a reorganization period and it is practically impossible to expect much from them this season.

Prilester, Excalled Ruler LIBERIAN LOAN STIRS CONGRESS Washington, D. C., May 17th (Associated Ne-gro Press)—In the House the full power of the Harding administration was brought to bear to carry out an obligation of the Wilson regime. The is-one was the loan of $5,000,000 to Liberia. A joint resolution to reauthorize the credit provoked one of the sharpest party clashes in the House in years. The Democrats violently attacked the proposal as designed to reimburse international bankers for Liberian securities. The Republican leaders mercilessly wielded the party hush, but even then the proposition was too much for forty on their side who went over to the Democrats. Many others declined to vote. The bill was finally passed, 148 to 139. The resolution now goes to the Senate. Leading the opposition, Representative Garner of Texas said: "This is the first time in history that the bankers have come up, and said they are strong enough with the administration to demand that you do their bidding." He read from the record of the hearing on the resolution that J. P. Morgan & Co., Kuhn, Loeb & Co., the National City Bank, all of New York, furnished $1,000,000 to refund Liberia's indebtedness in 1912. You always have a good time on the Letter Carriers plenic.

W. Williams) Of all the arts, music is the most intagli- sion and at the same time, the most dependable upon the rhythm of its emotional response. Indeed, the pantomime elements music reach the auditor with out the intervention of reason as translator, through the car. A change in musical rhythm is a change in gesture, a curve or an angle in the pantomime sub-structure of a composition. This the changing moods of a musical工 induce sympathetic responses from those who hear it. Muscle laughs, weeps, frolic, jigs, not by means of sound alone, but through the surer method of rhythm in music, rhythm is pantomine. Who has not heard some clever musician take the notes of a dirge and by changing the rhythm produce a march or a waltz or a rolllicking two-step with such translation the soul of the composition undergoes a change, it takes on a new inner meaning. Motion picture is another art form. It should be possible with a well made score, to stimulate the same moods by playing the music as by showing the picture. Of course, the Photo-Play being a concrete, definite thing would bring forth a definite idea. The music plight do the same thing with some persons, but it surely permit every auditor to construct his own story on the suggestions that the music arose, and its inner meaning of it.

PAGE SIX MASONIC NEWS BEAR IN MIND If you do not agree with a brother, or he does something you think is wrong, you should not embarrass the situation by talking about him to other people or by going into public print, but you should first go to him personally and seek adjustment of the "differences". If you two cannot agree and settle it, call in two or three disinterested judicious brothers to settle it for you. Masons do the fraternity a great injustice when individuals carry their differences before the profane world.—The Master Mason. The best Masons are usually those whose wives take pride in their husband's memberhip in our fraternity. --- The Tyler of the lodge is the one whose duty it is to see that the halls are kept in neat conditions; but in many instances he no doubt gets nothing for his service and feels he is not duty bound to do more than unlock the door, blow the horn and see that none pass except those who are duly qualified and have permission. The Grand Master of Manitoba says: "The real seat of interest must always be in the Subordinate Lodge. Our Masonic obligations were taken at the altar of a Subordinate Lodge, and it is by gathering round that same altar that we are most likely to preserve its binding effect on mind and conscience." --- THINK OF THESE THINGS The Masonic Praternity leaves to each member the absolute and unqualified right to worship God after the manner of his own particular faith and in accordance with the dictates of his own conscience. At the same time it does require of its members a positive belief in a Supreme Being endowed with infinite power, wisdom, goodness and love. Reverence for Deity is inculcated in every degree in Masonry; and this is true of both the Scottish and York Rites. "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain," is no more emphatically expressed in the Hebrew "Book of the Law" than in the rituals of our Rites. Reverence for the Deity is an ever present precept. Profanity has no place in Masonry. Are we not taught in the very first degree never to use his name but with that reverential way which is due from a creature to his creator? Are these profound teachings meaningless? Have they no place in our daily walk and conversation? For the use of profanity by a member of the fraternity there is neither palliation nor excuse. It not only reflects upon the high character of our ideal, but also degrades the user. Let every one of us so guard our words as to refrain from offending in this particular. Let us so live that there shall be no occasion to injure into our rituals an obligation remitting our members to refrain from this unwhole sound practice, as has been done in other jurisdictions. Let us "think on these things."—Brotherhood. THE INFLUENCE OF ONE MAN The influence of one man whose life is gekled by the hallowed light of Mr. song is far beyond estimation. One may build a mansion; may expend uncounted sums in rearing its walls of marble, and in storing it with every element of beauty within; and yet, passing from this mortal realm, may have accomplished but little; while another, perhaps, never built anything save the beautiful mansion of character. The invisible precious stones that are laid in the walls of the new Temple, he had around about his own character. He left little save influence, but that influence, exerted day by day, falls into sensitive souls, and shares, molds and directs the course of life, and reveals the truth to countless others. Thus, my brethren, must the bene- cient work of Masonry go forward, patient in its strength for ideal human- ity, adding link upon link to the chain which points the man of the past, through the man of the present, to the better man of the future.—Filmar of California, in an exchange.

FARM NEWS POISONING BOLL WEEVIL A warning against liquid sprayer attachments to cotton poisoning machinery is issued by B. R. Coud, director of the boll weevil laboratory of the United States Department of Agriculture. Calcium arsenate applied as a dust, he points out, is the only certain means yet found for controlling the boll weevil and any effort at control by means of liquid sprays is useless. Sprayer attachments are, therefore, not only unnecessary but are an added burden. They increase the cost of the machinery and make it more complicated and difficult to operate. The liquid spray, even if it were as effective as the dust method would be decidedly more expensive. It would necessitate the use of water carts, to feed the machines, would demand an ample and constant water supply which is not available on most farms, and in various ways would increase the cost of poisoning operations. Orchardists and others who have to conduct poisoning operations regularly are constantly searching for sprays that can be dusted instead of sprayed. Cotton growers are very fortunate in that the one really effective method of controlling the boll weevil is the dust method and they should not waste time and money. Mr. Coud points out, in experimenting with the expensive spray methods that farmers, in other lines are so constantly trying to get away from. In addition to the foregoing spraying equipment we also find on the market many curious devices for applying some liquid preparation, usually containing calcium arsenate, for the control of the holl weevil. Some of these are to be attached to plows, others to cultivators, while still others run independently. They are usually provided with some exceedingly simple form of tank with a gravity flow of liquid, which either drips on the plants or is wiped on them by some form of brushes or rags. Many such implements are absolutely comical, and the only sad feature is the fact that some farmers are foolish enough to purchase them.

Goods delivered to any part of the city Enterprise Mercantile Company The literature advertising these implements promises wonderful results and the directions given often call for only a small fraction of a pound of poison per acre, which is distributed over the plants in a very irregular manner. To expect boll weevil control from such methods is absolutely absurd. The Department specialists have been attempting boll weevil control with liquid applications for many years. In these tests they use the finest available spraying machinery, distributing the liquid poison over the plants in a mist form, thus reaching absolutely every part of the plant. Furthermore, these applications are usually made at the rate of 100 gallons of solution per acre. In spite of this these spray applications do not control the boll weevil, and how can anyone expect to secure benefit from the absurd recommendations issued with some of the machines now offered the farmers? Farmers who desire more detailed in formation on this subject may secure it free of charge by writing the Delta Laboratory, Tallulah, Louisiana.

J., May 14—Pennsylvanian Giants opened their Sunday home grounds here today by defeating the All-Philadelphia Police team in a double-header. The scores were 4 to 2 and 4 to 2. New York, May 17th (Associated Negro Press)—The New York World prints the following Montreal dispatch Jack Dempsey heavyweight champion of the world, will defend his title against Harry Wills, the Negro heavyweight champion, in the baseball park here on July 1. All that remains to insure the meeting is for Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey, to sign the formal article of agreement. The bout, it is understood, will be promoted by the Montreal Chamber of Commerce and the Montreal Press Club, and assurance has been given that no interference will come from the authorities. July 1st here is Dominion Day, which corresponds to Independence Day, or July 4, in the United States. The date falls on Saturday and it is anticipated that 100,000 can see the bout, as temporary stands will be erected in the baseball park. It is understood that Frank Flournoy matchmaker of the Garden Athletic Club in New York, is interested, among others, in the bout. No limit is placed on the price of tickets here, whereas in New Jersey under the new law seats are limited to $15 as a maximum. Assurance also have been given that no objections will be raised to the mixed bout. Harry Wills long has been considered the logical challenger for Dempsey's title. He has size, reach, weight and boxing skill in his favor, to say nothing of plenty of experience. The amount of the purse has not been divulged, but it is understood that Dempsey's guaranteed $200,000, with the privilege of a percentage on the gross receipts, which are likely to reach $1,000,000 or more. Enter dispatches from New York and from Montreal direct said that the first report apparently was an error. Officials of the Montreal Chamber of Commerce were quoted as saying that that organization knew nothing of a plan for such a contest. Wilberforce, O., May 15, (Preston News Service)—Wilberforce University nine split even in the two game series played here last Monday and Tuesday with West Virginia Collegiate Institute, her bitterest rival, and partly avenged herself for the losing the "yellow jackets" administered at football last Thanksgiving day. The Ohio ladies won Monday's game with a score of 3-2 and lost Tuesday's 8-5. The annual clash of these two rivals of long standing marks the ushering in of straw hat season at the "Force"; and the gents straw hats vied with milady's parasol for brilliancy. The victory on Monday was the result of bunched hits off Holland, the ace of the West Virginia team's staff. For eight innings Holland twirled masterful ball, holding the local team scoreless and allowing but four scattered hits. With a tworun lead the mountaineers were very jubilant and positive of victory as they took the field in the ninth innning for the Gold and Green team's last bat; but lady luck changed partners for this stanza and the Bucyeye boys, pushed three runs across the plate on solid hits by "Buster" Jones, "Ded" Nelson and Hall with men on bases. "Buster Jones, the pride of Wilberforce's pitching staff, opposed Holland and was not hit hard, but two wild throws coming from the outfield trying to nip a runner hot-footing it to third resulted in scorers. One in the fourth inning and another in the seventh. One of the features of the game was the fact that first baseman, "Scrap" Townsend of the locals, accepted 13 putouts without an error, two of which he had to fall down and stretch wide to handle. Catcher Drewery starred for the "yellow jackets." He is a regular pop box and without a doubt one of the best catchers in Negro college circles. On Tuesday the worm turned and West Virginia won from the varsity in a slugfest that threatened to be stopped at any minute by rain. Holland, who pitched nine full innings the day before, started the game but retired in favor of Hardy. "Slim" Smith started for the home team but was relieved in the fifth by Jones. Charley Porter and "Ded" Nelson starred for Wilberforce with spectacular catches. Drewery and Capalhn HUNTINGTON HIGH SCHOOL WINS TRACK MEET Easily Outclassed all Rivals. Chappelle of Huntington Star Performer Institute, W. Va., May 16 (Preston News Service)—Huntington High school was an easy winner in the annual field and truck meet held on Lakin Field here last Saturday. The final result gave Huntington 64 points, Parkersburg 25, while Elkins High failed to place. Much disappointment was expressed because Garnett High of Charleston, of whom much was expected, failed to enter a team in the meet. The Parkersburg representatives made a valiant fight, but greater numbers and superior ability of the well-balanced team sent by Huntington brought victory to the latter school. Chappell of Huntington won the silver cup awarded to the highest individual point winner. He accomplished the unusual feat of winning first in each of the eight events which he entered a total of forty points. His time of 10-1-5 seconds in the 100 yard dash, made last Saturday, helps the record of this meet, and when the poor condition of the grass track is considered, his performance becomes more noteworthy. Howard of Parkersburg was second with 15 points; Branch of Huntington with 11 points. Howard was the mainstay of the Parkersburg team, but was doomed to be pitted against the stronger and more speedy Chappelle in all of his events, with the result that his best efforts could bring forth only a second place in each event. Buckhannon High was represented by a two man tennis team which defeated a team picked from the secondary Department of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute in straight sets 7-5, in doubles 6-4; each team winning one set in the single matches.

Gary, Indiana, May 17th (Associated Negro Press)—The question whether colored labor from the South is adaptable to northern industrial uses appears to have been settled by the results obtained here News of the erection of a new tube mill, which when completed will employ 15,000 men is followed by the understanding that colored laborers, both skilled and unskilled will be used wherever they make good Gary whose growth in the last ten years has been the wonder of the country is purely and simply an in- opportunity to capital for measuring the capacity of the colored worker The steel mills and tin plate works, and the many other mammoth plants are the reasons for Gary's being This city of 65,000 or 70,000 people, 6,000 of whom are colored, exists for the purpose of supplying labor to these giant manufactures, and of catering to the needs of colored labor and its big chance during the war when labor was scarce and later when immigration was cut off, reducing the regular labor supply Many of the men who first flocked to Gary were the careless floaters who flood any city when there is a chance to work spend a few weeks to get a stake and then move on. Later a more substantial group came who bought homes, brought their families and became permanent residents. The schools here are among the finest in the country, mixed as to race but with colored teachers as well as white. There is a large number of colored professional and business men. The Mid-City Bank, through its Subsidance the Mid-City Realty Co., and Mid-City Building & Loan, own large tracts of property here and have specialized in modern home building. It is said a big proportion of their homes have been built for the coloured residents and their information bureau reports that they have achieved such success they are planning still further efforts in connection with the large influx of colored people who are expected to seize the opportunity to locate here because of the great demand for labor with the coming of the need for 15,000 men to man the tube mills IS IT INGRATITUDE? New York, N. Y., May 17th (Preston News Service)—One is almost tempted to believe that there is something of ingratitude in the make-up of Jack Johnson and to this can be laid the stellar reason for his continued sufferings. ...Note where they have served him with papers in Chicago, the charge being that he forgot all about a debt of $4,000 advanced to him shortly after he left Leavenworth. Among the first things Jack did with the borrowed coin was to buy himself an automobile. This reminds us of the time he was having his trouble in New York City after winning from Jim Jeffries. Mrs Walker, an estimable lady who before her death conducted the Press Hotel advanced the ball money which made it possible for Johnson loll around the Baron Wilkins Cafe while waiting for his trial to come up. One day Mrs. Walker had occasion to call at the cafe to see Jack, but the champion thought he was too busy and sent word down that he would call to see her at her hotel when he had time. Mrs. Walker jumped to her feet and informed the messenger that unless Johnson wanted to be turned over to the authorities in five minutes he would slide down the banister and appear in her presence. Needless to say, Jack did the hundred yard dash in nothing to placate the frate lady WANT GOVERNOR TO LIFT BAN New York City, May 16th (Preston News Service)—A committee of citizens called on the Republican County Chairman the other day seeking to bring to the attention of Governor Miller the ban on boxing against colored fighters. It is the opinion of many, who profess to know, that nothing will come of the effort as Governor be was carried into office on the tail of the Harding kite by asking the sport writers to call on him and discuss the crackerized Boxing Commission. Not a single "sundown pen pusher" was seen at the gathering and in spite of the half-promises made before election, the Governor has never done anything to allow the colored boys to fight the white ones in New York. Doubtless he is of the opinion that colored men should only fight in France for "Democracy." OUR FIRST "RACE DRAMA" New York City, May 17th (Preston News Service)—At the Lafayette theatre on Monday night, May 8, the first drama written, acted and staged by colored people had its premiere and scored one of the biggest successes ever recorded at this well known house. "The Flat Below" is the title of the production and while it can be said that Flournoy Miller is the author, the name of Miller, Lyles. Sissle and Blake all appear as authors and producers of the piece. True it is that we have had amateur Miller pulled a big bluff shortly after productions written with the intent of passing muster as "race plays", but these things were ragged. This offering, which is drawing splendid houses to the Seventh Avenue theatre this week, comes nearer to what we all expect as a race play than anything seen around here. The theme of the story is Christianity, incidently taking a side-swipe at society for preaching something which society seldom practices. Brimful of humor and acted in an able manner, the drama is truly well worth seeing. Popularity is bound to follow wherever shown for the profiteering landlord is seen at his worst, but is hosted in the long run.
