The Women's Department of the Citizens' Liberty League of the 22nd Ward was organized last Tuesday night at Providence Baptist Church, Rev. Hamilton of the Congregational Church. "I am a Republican, and I believe the party should win next November, provided she stands by the principles leaders are flirting with the things that will mean its defeat. Political and economical justice are the pillows upon which it is founded. If the nation is to stand we must be willing to fight, for all, or we will be thirty races or groups each pulling its own way. "A little more of the spirit of Lincoln and a little less of the present-day practice is what we need just now. "I am in sympathy with your people in your struggle, (or political freedom. People of my race (German decent) have felt the sting of prejudice of late when I was not so like you have). President Wilson found phrase called 'World Democracy. It was played upon the screen before the eyes of all the world and gazing upon it, it set the people 40 thinking and dreaming, and nothing can stop them." Other speakers were Atty. Geo. L. Vaughn and Mrs. Lucy Bledsoe. Mrs. lieddea ladd down one of her red-hot which brought many rounds of applause. Mrs. Julia Alexander recited a poem dedicated to the Citizens' League. At Lane Tabernacle One of the most interesting meetings of the Citizens Library League that of last Monday night at Lane Tabernacle C. M. E. Church, 3000 Falkfax avenue. "The first speaker, J. E. Mitchell, briefly stated the object and purpose of the Citizen League which was well received. Rev. N. L. Smith, pastor of the church was the next speaker, who told at some length what he had thought of the League, from what he had heard, and intimated that he thought that the organization was first ing with the Democratic party. "I am with the Citizen's Liberty League. I am not contending for, but I want it through the Republican party. We need more faith in other and we cannot afford to divide our forces at this time." Rev. Smith said. Dr. Chas. Henry Phillips, Jr. was the next speaker. Apparently Rev. Smith had made some remarks that did not set well with the doctor, for he launched right into his discussion by the Chairman, an pleased to be here, to speak to the three thousand men and women who believe in the principles of the Citizens' Liberty League. I can see that Dr. Smith has been misinformed. We are a body of honest men and women that is organized to better our condition and yours. We must all go up together or together we must all go up together we have been all kinds of false statements made by enemies of our cause. The Citizens' Liberty League is a Republican organization and our fight is confined to the Republican party. We shall oppose men in the party who are not honest men. We have Klet, the best mayor the city has ever had would not be today backing Dwight Davis had he known how the Negroes felt toward Mr. Davis on account of his attitude when he was park commissioner. That is why we should city, some one in robe the feeling of the Negroes when the state is being made. "I have no patience with the 'narror' Nergus who only echoes his masters' roles. I stand for all the principles of being made, being made big, out of white brethren for the 19th fifty years, and is now time for us to make some big men out of the issue of our War. Liberty is what I want. We have been born to work for years, and I think it high time for us to make a united effort to flee The St. Louis Argus Mrs. Grant Bledsoe spoke in behalf of the women. She told of how the women are uniting their forces to help the men free themselves and come into their own. She pictured as traitors, those of our Race those who are saying "it's not time yet." If we sit quietly and listen to these slaves, we shall find our needs foright tight and tighter about our needs. I will liberty. "Give me liberty or give me death!" she said. Mrs. Bledsoe said, "if anyone is present who is afraid to join the League, our account of a political position, for God's sake keep your mouth closed, and let those who are free speak for the League." Other speakers were Geo. L. Vaughan Dr. Darrington Weurur, Rev. R. C. Cole, Rev. S. B. Picher, Rev. R. H G Sydnor. Bendition was offered by Rev. Hamilton of the Congregational Church.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York today published a statement asserting that the South to universal military training was due to prejudice against the colored soldier. "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People does not concern itself with universal military training as such," says the state representative of the colored people of the United States. "Must be made to the propaganda against colored soldiers by which it was hoped to discredit the measure." "Brigadier General Sherburne and Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War, have testified to the valor of Negro troops in France. Under the circumference of the United States, colored soldiers must be characterized as for the most part deliberate and intentional falsification."

Secretary Says "Officials Allow Negroes To Be Lynched, Burned and Tortured Because People Of Community Tolerate It." (Associated Negro Press.) NEW YORK, N. Y., March 10.—Speaking before a mass meeting called by the National Association for the Adoption of General People and the Metropolitan Baptist Church of New York, John R. Shillady, declared that with more state governors like Edwin Morrow of Kentucky, lynching and burning at stake could be ended in the United States. "Mobism in the United States can be ended," said Mr. Shillady. "Whenever the people make up their minds that the mob must be put down, its governors and sheriffs and public officers will act accordingly. "In the main governors allow Negroes to be lynched and burned and tortured, because the people of their communities tolerate such errages. "With more governors like Edwin Morrow of Kentucky, the worst blot on American society is when a lynching motive mounts guns, its enthusiasm vanishes. Lexington, Ky., has fired another shot: that will be heard around the world." RACE QUESTION IS A PROBLEM OF BOTH THE RACES RACE QUESTION IS A PROBLEM OF BOTH THE RACES NEW YORK, N. Y. 10.—Among the 15,000,000 Negroes in the United States, the realization is growing that they must organize to obtain justice, according to William Pickens, formerly dean of Morgan College, who spoke at a meeting held by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Mr. Pickens recently became associate field secretary, of the N. A. A. C. P. "It is not the policy of Slavery, said Mr. Pickens or oppression to teach the enslaved or oppressed how to organize. Indeed, it is the policy of slavery to keep the enslaved or oppressed to discover any contact that should make for exchange of thought. "The state of half freedom which came to the Negro after the Civil War made, organization among the members of his race and its friends imperative, but past history has made such organization impossible of immediate realization. Many rival secret societies and warring church denominations prang up among the Colored folk, but not until about fifty years after the Civil War period was it possible to create an organization for the Advancement of Colored people. "What appears to some people as a challenge to pickens against the N. A. C. P. is in fact its greatest virtue and best security for success; that it consists of both white and Colored people working together for the adjustment of matters between the races. "The race question" is really the problem of both races, altho we call it The Negro Problem. "That does not mean it is the Negro's question. There are two races concerned, and the matter cannot be settled with one race absent. Even the white race, which is the stronger race, could not settle the matter alone. In the years ago, Miss Mary White Ortington called together some while and Colored people and started the association, while Dr. DuBois started the Crisis Magazine, then it was that the first real step was taken towards the solution of the problem of the half-free Negro in the United States.

ST. LOUIS, MO. FRIDAY. MARCH 12, 1920 FORMER ALABAMA GOVERNOR FAVORS A U.S. LYNCH LAW FORMER ALABAMA GOVERNOR FAVORS A U.S. LYNCH LAW (Associated Neuro Press.) ALBANY, N. F., March 10—There is no state or section of the country where the interest or protection of society demands or justifies the substitution of lynching for the orderly processes of the courts in the enforcement of law. This is the opinion of Emmett O'Neal, former governor of Alabama, the national movement against lynching. If necessary for the elimination of lynching, Mr. O'Neal invades an amendment to the United States Constitution which would give the federal government power to handle the situation instead of the states. "Lynching has grown until it has become a national evil, a blow upon our country," he said in a reproach to our civilization." Mr. O'Neal clared. "It is a horrible and inexcusable wrong for which the whole country must bear its just share of responsibility."

Recently the enemies of the Negro race have "paid attention" to the Negro press. They even "censured" out the Colored paper Congress to prevent a subsequent exhibition in that Graham Bill. That is the greatest recommendation ever given the Negro press. When they meant nothing and stood for no bloody and had no sort of backbone about anything massively worried about them. Some people smiled patronizingly and intimidated them, the rest, they killed it as they did the Voice of the Negro in Atlanta, Ga. But now the Negro Press as a whole has risen to a tone and pitch that commands the ear of the enemies of the Race. But the greatest compliment ever given the press is the fact that the enemy is now beginning to worry over the lind of leaders which the Negro race is appointing for itself. It need not be assured and cannot be denied, that in the South the white people have generally "appointed" the Negro race. They did it indirectly; they would only them to such and such a "overridden" Negro and when Color --- Awarded Score Pro COLORED CANNOT BE SEGREGATED Baltimore Justice Finds It Necessary To Remind Complaining Property Owners. (Associated Negro Press.) BALTIMORE, Md., March 10—Saying they feared an invasion by Negroes in the 900 block North Wolfe street, a delegation of women visited Justice Robleder at the Northeastern Police Court, and asked if something could be done. They told Justice Robleder that three weeks ago white people living in 1933 North Wolfe street moved and that after the house had been repaired the landlady brought several Negroes to the house and they agreed to rent it. The climax to their feelings came yesterday when the new tenants appealed to the police for possession of the keys and went inside to clean up preparatory to moving in. The women told Justice Robleder that all of them owned houses and had lived in that block for years. After listening to the story of the women, the magistrate told them that there prevent the Negroes moving in, because the higher courts had ruled that the segregation net was no longer valid. STATEMENTS OF CLARION REFUTED STATEMENTS OF CLARION REFUTED Editor of the Argus: The following communication was submitted to the St. Louis Clarion for publication: Mr. C. K. Robinson, Editor. St. Louis Independent-Clarion. In your issue of March 6 you print a statement relative to the disposal of the sum of $75.00 to R. H. Shaw you and the Clarion for libel, wherein not only does the undersigned an injustice, but also all of the parties who have been interested in having this matter adjusted. In the statement you say that J. T. Edwards of Rochester contributed the sum of $75.00, by way of reimbursement in the suit above mentioned. This statement is not only untrue, as neither of us contributed one cent to you, or to any other person for you in this case, and your statement to this effect is wholly misleading. The undersigned agreed, after we were informed by Mr. Chack, your attorney that there would be a judgment in one case for $250.00 and a retraction published by you to pay the cost to other persons, which R. Shaw had reason to consider if he had to pay the costs. We were informed that this cost would be about $75.00, and desires of seeing this matter settled, we agreed that we would be responsible for this amount if this cost and would pay the same if this cost and would the litigation be between the parties. We further state that at all the times that we have conferred with you and with Rev. Shaw, it was our understanding and is our understanding now that, in the event a compromise was offered to print a retraction of the statement. And in the conference held in the court room with your attorney and the attorneys representing Rev. Shaw this was the understanding and was a part of the agreement. We also say that at no time has the Rev. Shaw or his attorneys approached him or set of setting this case; in such instances approached him and with a view of bringing about a settlement, and this we have done with your knowledge and consent, and we feel that the publication in last week's issue of your paper is a misstatement of facts, and we ask that you publish this we may be set right before the communityative to our connection.

And behind the other day a white Congressman shouted out words to the crowd that white people had better begin to more attention to the leaders which the Negro is apprehending, but less the leaders which the Negro is apprehending for himself get the better of the matter. He points out in plain words that the super-imposed leaders are beginning to be discarded by the Colored race, and asks that the white people who want "their Negroes" to stay on the job; better begin to give extra attention to them and help to build them in the request of Colored people. The Congressman beheshes the one; that whenever the favored leaders ask for anything "for the race" the whites must seem to give ear to it and to hear it favorably, so that the race will fall in line behind those usable leaders. To be brief and to the point, it is just like bear hunting; we set a trap and leave a piece of beef for the bear—that we might eat the whole bear later. It is up to the Negro race to open its eyes and consider in all such—since whether it wants a temporary or a permanent advantage. It is a plaza loam. ATTORNEY FOR CHAMBLISS SAYS HE IS INNOCENT Chicago Policeman Declares He Had No Part In White Girl's Downfall. Case Is Postponed For lack Of Direct Evidence (Associated Negro Press.) CHICAGO. March 10.—The case of Dorsey Chambill, a policewoman, charged with abducting a white girl who applied to him for help and of keeping her prisoner for weeks, during which time she was visited by other men, has attracted considerable attention and made it impossible to secure to Louis B. Anderson for the defender to secure a fair trial in the courts. Chambill, this week on the advice of Attorney Louis B. Anderson, resigned from the police force. Bertha Wyreck, a white girl, sixteen years old, according to the charges against Chambill, came to Chicago to earn a living. The family in Panee attracted compliments and her brother was still in the Navy. Another girl came here to live. The Wyreck girl claimed that after being lost in the vicinity of Thirty-fifth and State streets, and seeing Chambill in a policeman uniform asked him the way to her stopping place. It is stated that Chambill lured the girl to a resort, keeping her a prisoner and forced her to receive visits from other men. The day, a pedestrian picked up a piece of paper on which she wrote a message to the girl's friend. "I am a prisoner. I am sick, please tell somebody to rescue me."—Signed —Bertha. The girl was finally located and taken to the City Hospital. suffering with pupnemonia and died later. A number of white clubs of women have taken active interest in the case and have demanded an early trial and a number of other extent are made made that Judge Stalk declared that he preferred not to hear the case. An editorial in the Chicago Tribune has been widely copied by Southern newspapers and the case, because of the color of the defendant has been given unusual noteworthy. The attorney for Chambliss claim the case is the innocent. The Chambliss attorneys having seen the girl and endowed to direct her to a home for girls on Indiana Avenue, he declared he had no part in her downfall. The delays in the prosecution of the case have been due to postponement by the attorney, who lack of evidence and it is unclear whether other delays or the case entirely dismissed because of the inability to secure witnesses to prove the charges. NEW YORK NEGROES BUYING UP PROPERTY FOR MORE HOMES NEW YORK, N. Y., Feb. 25—A candidate headed by G. R. Thompson, a real estate broker located in Harlem, contemplates a new buying movement that will probably extend the Negro district southward from 130th close to 125th street between 51th and Seventh avenue. Mr. Thompson said, The results of the general attitude of the people of the north have an important part in the present situation of the Negro of the South to Northern cities where his opportunities for free action are much better than in the South. "This is particularly true among the more well-to-do class who own farms and other industries from which they have unassessed small fortunes. These people are now educated to the degree of professionals which they have on demand. Southern banking institutions will earn more money in Northern markets and they are now forwarding the bulk of their life savings and the profits derived from recent crops to secure desirable living accommodations in New York City, both as an investment and to fill the demand which will be created in the Spring when there will be a greater migration. "At present there is nothing of the student required in Harlem except north of 153th street and south of 123rd street, where there are a number of up-to-date dwellings and apartments with the modern improvements which clients demand." "All of the available properties in the upper section of Harley have already been taken up by Colored inventors and tenants, therefore the attention of the new comers is now turned toward the new business," he said. "I believe they will soon overrun, as they have the necessary capital and are willing to pay the price. Cafe Proprietor Dies BALTIMORE, Md.
