C. J. BAER ADDRESES CEN. CIVIC LEAGUE Carl J. Saer, manager of the Production Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce, in an address before the Central Civic League said: The seriousness of the present economic conditions shows very plainly that the main factors, in the situation are transportation, industry, commerce and production. Until conditions relative to production are right, the other dependent factors will not pursue a normal course. One of the greatest drawbacks to production is the lack of mashpower. The rural districts must be made attractive enough to prevent the steady migration to the cities; better schools, better roads and modern homes. When this remedy on the side of production is made seventy per cent of the American Dollar, which is agriculture, will take up its share of the burden imposed of throwing it over on the other economic factors which represent the reality our rent. Until we get the most balance in our economic wheel The St. Louis Argus or professional life, as well as no small number of political leaders. The Quadrential Sermon by Bishop J. A. Johnson was a masterful effort and created more comment than perhaps any delivery ever heard by the General Conference. Among the ministers present are several who served as chaplains during the war. They include, Reverends M. Collins, C. G. Parks, A. G. Stewart, C. Stewart, E. W. S. Denise, A. Green, John H. Hill and others. The Episcopal Committee is the largest single body of the General Conference. Dr. Wilson of North Carolina was elected chairman of the committee; Dr. J. I. Lester was elected vice-chairman; Dr. S. J. Johnson of Texas secretary. This committee will deal with some of the most vital questions that concern the conference. The bishop's work for the past four years will be reviewed by this committee. A daily edition of the "Christian Recorder" is being issued by Edith Wright. Allen and Cooper, from the press of the St. Louis Argus. The paper shortage makes it necessary to restrict the space in this issue and a general review of the sessions to date cannot be given. The events of most importances, however, will be published in subsequent issues. Wilmington, Del.—Dr. Harvey A. Murray, has been named by Mayor Taylor, as a member of the Board of Health. Dr. Murray is the first race man to be so honored. Dr. Murray was born and reared in Wilmington. His father, Emanuel D. Murray, was caretaker of the New Century Club for 23 years. The doctor was graduated from the Howard High School and received his medical degree from the Howard University, at Washington, after which he served as an intern in the Freedman's Hospital there. He returned to Wilmington in 1914 and began practice of medicine on December 18 of that year. Part Pay Of The City Janitors Is Being Held Out The municipal jailers are wondering what the city authorities intend to do with the 55 cents they are holding back from their jailors' pay. These employees are the poorest paid on the municipal buildings pay roll. There are 34 colored men on the list, who originally received $80.50 a month, but were granted a 10 per cent increase, with other employees, effective April 1. When the jailors were paid on the 30th they only received $88 instead of $88.55. This amount totaled $11.15 for the month, and if the "hold out" is kept up for a year, will amount to $613.50. The questions the jailers are asking are "Why are we being held up?" and "What is to be done with the money?" FIRST ANNUAL SERMON. Private Lodge No. 19043, G. U. O. of O. F., will hold its first Annual Sermon, Sunday, May 16, at First Baptist Church, Klinoch Park. All lodges, Household of Ruth, Juvenile and Patricia are cordially invited. G. W. Moore, N. G.], Wm. Brandon, P. S. The Unker Boards: I wish to thank all of you for your many kindnesses, and the abundance of fruit and flowers given to my husband, Horace G. Jones, during his recent severe illness, and ask that you join your prayers with mine for his complete recovery. C.M.E.BISHOPS IN COUNCIL AT THE LANE TABERNACLE Bishop Phillips Speaks On Fourteen Points Against 'Organic Union Of The Churches The Bishops' Council of the C. M. E. Church, is in session this week at the New Lane Tabernacle, C. M. E. Church, Englewood, and Newwood. Among those present are Bishop Charles Henry Phillips, L. H. Holley, Atlanta, Ga.; Isaac Lane, Jackson, Tenn.; R. S. Williams, Augusta, G.; Ellas Cottrell, Holly Springs; Miss R. A. Carter, Chicago, Ill.; and N. C. Cleaves, St. Louis. There are also prominent general officers and visitors from all sections are in attendance. Phillips Opposes Organic Union. Bishop Phillips was the principal speaker at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion Church last Sunday afternoon. In regard to the proposed, Birmingham plan, Bishop Phillips said: "I am opposed to Organic Union because in truth it would not be a Union, but a mere absorption, of the smaller bodies by the larger one, and the C. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion Churches would be through the M. E. Zion Church like the officers of the Gulf, flow on and are located in the briny deep." He explained he was opposed, not to Union, but the plan, was proposed by the commission that met at Birmingham, Ala, in April. He opposed it because, he questioned the authority of the commissioners; because it did nothing but propose the same—United Methodist Church; because there is no Constitution; because the commissioners' actions were premature and harsh; because no prejicium is made for the running of the new church; because in 15 to 20 years, the C. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion Churches would have no bishops on the bench; because 1500,000 Negroes could not harmoniously ret along without some specified instrument to govern them; because all real details are left to be worked out after the union which puts the cart before the horse, he said, and is like naming a baby before it is born. His speech was a strong argument against the Union of the A. M. E., A. M. E. Zion and C. M. E. Churches on the plan as outlined at Birmingham.

Mixon, Grand Treasurer of the Odd Fellows of Alabama, will preach the sermon.

The management has arranged for the first and second flights for this entertainment as a big attendance is expected. CHICAGO, Ill. May 5.—It now appears that the only real check imposed on the Negro in the constitution of the Methodist organizations, is the provision that their contingent shall never amount to more than 5 per cent of the whole body. Their are five per cent now; this is notice that they must never grow foster than the white membership. Obviously the door is thus closed and locked against the incoming of any of the independent Colored denominations, like the African M. E. or the African M. E. Zion. But it is not likely that these independent Colored folks would ever condescend anyhow to mute with their white Methodist relatives. The Associated Negro Press TUSKOEEE INSTITUTE Ala. May 5—The first annual conference of the white and colored extension workers on Negro Extension Work in Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama was held at Tuskegee Institute during the past week. The purpose of this meeting, according to Dr J A. Krans, Washington, D.C.

First One Of Six Returned By Supreme Court For New Trial Gets Second Sentence To Death. Helena, Ark., May 5. John Martin, colored, was found guilty of first degree murder for the second time in Phillips County Circuit Court here late yesterday for his part in the racial uprising in the Elaine section last fall. Martin was charged specifically with the murder of W. A. Adkins, a special agent of the Mishouri Pacific Railway, at Hoop Spur the night of Sept. 30, 1919, when a small Sheriff's posse was fired on by Negroes who were in a darkened church. It was this shoot- ing which precipitated the uprising. Martin, who was one of the six Negroes under death sentence whose cause were remanded by the Supreme Court, again was sentenced to be electrocuted. The case of Will Wordlow, another of the six Negroes to be retried, was called immediately. SPEAKER AND SINGER AT THE Y. M. C. A. SUNDAY Dr. A. J. Carey, pastor, Chicago District, A. M. E. Church, and one of the outstanding men of the church, will be the speaker at the Pine Street Y. M. C. A. on Sunday afternoon. Dr Carey is a man of broad experience and recognized ability.

The Event Is Beginning Of New Era In The National Pastime. Local Team Will Be Strong Contender For The First League Pennant This Sunday, May 9, will mark a new era in the history of baseball, the national pastime, so far as Colored people are concerned. The first scheduled games of the new Western Negro Baseball League will be played on this date. After years of promiscuous games by athletes of the race, the sport has at last taken tangible and definite form. On March 26, this year, a league of eight professional clubs in the largest middle, western cities was organized and incorporated for $25,000. These clubs consist of the Chicago, "American Giants"; Detroit, "Stars"; Kansas City, Mo., "Monarchs"; Chicago, "Leonards"; St. Louis, "Giants"; Darton, "Marcos"; Cuban Stars and Indianapolis "A. B. Ca." It was agreed that a tentative (experimental) schedule be followed during the season of 1920. Andrew Foster of Chicago was made temporary president and the opening of the season set for May 9.

Governor Would Abolish 14th And 15th Amendments Washington, May 1—Repeal of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution "and others enacted since, which encroach upon the rights of states," was advocated tonight by Gov. Cooper of South Carolina, in an address before the annual dinner of the Palmetto State Society. "I do not approve of any further encumberer of state sovereignty to the Federal Government," she clared "I am convinced, after a few more years of experiments and disaster, we will go back to the government established by the constitution." Wealthy Man Murdered HOUSTON. Tex. May 5 — Mrs. John Williams, 70 years old, reputed to be one of the wealthiest Negroes in Houston, was found murdered in the living quarters above his store in the 2200 Black on Lawrence street. It is believed that he was killed about 10.20 o'clock the evening before, neighbors having heard several shot at that time.

The three trustees for Iowa, B. Hammack and L. York City, to Jones Binga, for a request of $25,000 subject to $70,000. Mr Binga "acquired a thirty four hour hold interest in the property in 1910. He likely incorporated the Binga State Bank and is said to be the largest single holder of real estate among colored residents of the city." 8 PAGES NEWS DEALER WAS "BEATEN INTO A JELLY" N.A. A. C.P. Finds Franklin Was Badly Punished As Well As Fined For Circulating The Crisis. (Special to the Arzus) New York, May 5 — The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, announces the receipt on April 26, of a telegram from Hon. Lee M. Rusegil, Secretary of Mississippi, stating that "Franklin of Mississippi will always have full protection of our laws in securing their legal rights." This telegram was dated Jackson, Miss. 11:45 a.m., April 26. On April 22, the Association galled to the press copies of telegraphs passing between the Association, the Governor and Acting Governor of Mississippi, the last two being the telegraph of April 21, of Acting Governor H. H. Castel, in which he evaded replying to the Association's appeal for protection and in defiant language threatening that the editor of the Crista, the Association's organ, would be made an example of if he appeared in Mississippi, and the Association's second appeal for legal protection following the receipt of the acting governor's wire. The Association announces that since the publication of these telegraphs, it has been informed, from two sources, one of them a white man, that the Rev. E. R. Franklin was badly beaten, in addition to being fined, the beating being described as "Beaten—into a jelly." The Association is unable, upon its own authority, to substantiate this allegation, but in one case the information came to it from a man who had written to a third party on other matters and mentioned this case incidentally as a matter of news. In the other case, information came directly from a correspondent familiar with all details of the case. I.H.BRADBURY FAILSTOSHOW Members Of Executive Committee Wait One Hour and Half In Rain, Locked Out Of Club House. Leave In Disgust With Bradbury and John Schmoll. Former Is Accused Of "Selling Out Race", and "Petty Graft." The much talked of meeting which was staged to take place at the Missouri Republican League Club last Saturday evening did not materialize, owing to the fact that I. H Bradbury failed to show up to answer charges of withholding a report on certain money which came into his possession from the proceeds of the Lincoln, Douglas celebration which was held at Louisiana Hail last February. And coincident with Bradbury's absence, the members of the executive committee found themselves locked out of the clubhouse at 2390 Pine Street, where the meeting was scheduled to be held. For an hour and a half Major Butler, with the other officers, played the part of "watchful waiting," hoping that if Bradley did not come, after having made a personal promise to do so, he would at least send in the report, with the charter of the club and the membership list, within the officers declare he is unwilling to keep in his pocket. As the members grouped here and there, weary, waiting, much dissatisfaction was expressed at "Brad's conduct. In a statement by Major William H. Butler, president of the organization, he said: "I went into the Missouri Republican league club in good faith to help my people, but I don't propose to allow Bradbury to use me in any grafting scheme. I can see why he is always accusing others, for he is only trying to hide his own deeds. The case will never make any progress with him, and I am not as strong as a leader. He isn't right. He is responsible to no one bill Mr. John Schimoll, and if that is the case he cannot have the interest of the race at heart." Other members said that they supposed that John Schimoll had told "Brad" to take the charter and membership roster of the club, because they accused Bradbury of doing anything John Schimoll said. It was also stated that Bradbury made almost daily visits to Schimoll's office, where it supposed he receives his orders. "It looks like a sell out," remarked one of the officers, as they reluctantly denounced. "Brad" has got us in his pocket. If we ever get into the clubhouse to hold another meeting, formal charges will be preferred against Higherbury, which will be followed by oung premises. INFORMATION WANTED: A SQUARE DEAL FOR EVERY MAN AGES PRICE 5 CENTS VICTORY LINCOLN LEAGUE LEADER ELECTED DELEGATE TO CHI. Carries Tenth District Convention in Face Of the Lily White Opposition (Special to the Argus) Mumbai, Tenn. May 3. "The Regular Republican, led by Robert R. Church, put it over the fair and precious Lillies in the Tenth District Convention here Saturday. Following a warm meeting of the district committee, that had been packed against the regulars, from the four counties of the district, the regulars proceeded to take the meeting place away from the lillies and hold a real convention, in which Republican gospel and not post-offices, was the topic of speech. By mention of Dr J. L. Campbell, the election of Robert R. Church, with Josiah T. Settle as alternate, as delegate to the Republican National Convention, was carried with as much enthusiasm as unanimity. The tenth district thus notified the Republican National Convention that the warrior against the lillies would press the battle before a free convention in a free land. The sight was memorable. When Joe Settee called the convention to order and advised the audience, packed in the county courthouse like ancient sardines in an ancient box, that the regulars had decided to maul the life out of the criminals against the Republican party, the lilies were nonplussed. They were out on the outside scared to venture further without police escort which was not in sight. Immediately Church flung his hidden bomb—he nominated Steve Wright, a white Republican, for chairman, and when the lilies peeping over shoulders from the outside, saw Wright take the chair, they gave up the ghost. The chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, "Hon." Hal Clemensm, came down from Knoxville, to lead the lilies to victory, but when poor Hal looked around, he had nothing to lead, except a handful of weary-looking candidates for "favors to come." Jake Woods was elected secretary, and then began to work the most perfect organization colored men have ever perfected. Resolution Extol Party The resolutions, presented by Dr. J. W. Ribbons, extolled the party and nailed the lilies to a cross of scorn; declared for whoever the Chicago convention nominates to put Wilson out of his free lodgings and took pride in the fact that the convention would send Church to Chicago without either instructions or advice Join the Citizens Liberty League and have a part in the right for political recognition. THE BENEFICIARY BOARD OF PYTHIAS MEETS IN KANS.C. Third Quarterly Session Of The Pythians Reveals Wonderful Progress The members of the Beneficiary Board assembled in Kansas City, Mo. on Saturday April 24th for the purpose of holding its third quarterly session for the Pythian year and to adjust and pay all claims against the Beneficiary Department. The full board, consisting of Grand Chancellor A. W. Llord, Grand Keeper of Rewards and Seat W. T. Amcid, Grand Treasurer, J. B. Coleman and Grand Attorney A. Knox. The meeting was held in the law offices of Judge Knox. Wonderful Progress The report showed over $11,000,000 collected for the quarter, and whereas, $5,500,000 was paid out as claims. A surplus of $30,000,000, which with the property owned in St. Louis, brings the total assets of the Grand Lodge well above $55,000,000. The collections for the year up, to the present time is over $20,000,000 and before the close of the year it will reach a sum well pigh $50,000,000. Last year alone, the membership of this progressive and growing institution was augmented by one thousand and it is confidently aspected to exceed this number in the present year. This is clearly indicated by the fact that between seventy-five and one hundred applicants are now pouring into the home office at St. Louis every week. When a retrospect, is taken through nineteen years to the time when Mr. Lloyd was elected Grand Champion in this city at 1734 Grand avenue, the above figures denote a most wonderful progress indeed. Little Acorn Becomes Giantie Oak. In the years of our Lord Eighteen Hundred and Eighty-three, Pride of the West Lodge was organized and for the next eighteen years it was struggle and a hard road for Pythianism. This was revealed by the fact that in 1901 the membership was about 560 for the entire jurisdiction, held in sixteen bays, six of which were in St. Louis and one in Kansas City. Lilty Lodge No. 8, which is the oldest Kansas City subordinate had a membership of about sixteen at that time. Today St. Louis has twenty-one lodges. She Gt.

A combination of eccentric variety, divided into three acts, with some kind of punch every minute, fills the bill at the Booker Washington Theatre this week. The Russels open the show and this week it is the female that leads in the framing. As a whimsical pair these performers have all others backed off the board. They are clever in knock about, glorious, comedy, and been the audience screaming. and keep the Jazzman Trio, Misses Wilson, Hicks and Olden, have got the crowd rammed to death" They are put in front, some good smiling and friendly dancing. The girls are full of "crap" and mix their spectacles with some spicy humor that keeps the fun going. the film. Edwards and Edwards featuring the burlesque comedian, "Hilton- beans," close the show with their char- acteristic style and hilarious. The act is one big scream, and seems to please the audience, intensely, although some of the lines and antics are at times rather punitive. Next-Week. The Bruce Stoed Company will come to the Phoenix Washington post week. This is a big combination of real real farmers, and the patrons will enjoy their up to the minute musical comedy. A beautiful course of female singers and duo's will furnish plenty of entertainment. AT THE MOVIES Giving do to the limited space due to the sufficiency of paper, only the special features at each theatre can be mentioned in this column. 'For other attractions of the week, see advertisements. - Comet Theatre. From Miss, in Desert love! will be the attraction this Saturday. It is a story of Argonauts, with a background that stretches many years behind. In fact, the story involves the destinies of two men whose fathers had been mortal foes. One of these families, the Marstons, represents law. The other, the Koyons, typify our outlaw. Action is the key note of the production—such action as Ms. Is capable of at his best—thrilling, sweeping, heart-gripping. The management of the Comet has installed a 5-foot ventilating fan, of the Beijer system, and can now lay claim to the coolest picture house on Market Street. This new fan is ideal for picture theatres and keeps the air constantly in circulation, pure and comfortably cool. Just A-Mere…On Sunday and Monday this West End theatre will show Rev Beach in "The Girl From Outside." It is the story of a girl who orphaned on her way to Nome, Alaska, finds herself set down there in a time when riot and vice ran rampant; is a powerful presentation of life in the wild and woolly North of Kloondays. There is a variety of action working logically and swiftly against the background of snow and gold. The psychology of live crooks is developed reliably as is their progresso who a better state of life they come under the radiant influence of June, the "girl from outside." Their leader ultimately hailthems himself for her. The point is that they do not "reform," they change their outlook in altered fundamentally. Perdieton.—Nizimova, the brilliant Russian star, will be seen at the Pendieton in "Stronger Than Death" on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. That action is replete with thrills and climaxes. Nizimova has signed, a London musee hall dancer, who finds love in the almost wilderness of India where the moors go for rest. One of the biggest scenes is her dance on the steps of the temple—a weird dance in the moonlight, which strikes awe and terror to the hearts of the blacks, and causes them to delay their uprising until the British garrison comes in the rescue of the civilian community of Gaya. Her sacrifice is rewarded by the devotion of the hermit doctor, the strong male figure in the tense drama. Star—One of the biggest features of this theatre will be Seese Hayakawa in "The Beggar Prince" on Tuesday. The story is of a fisherman who falls in love with a maiden who was being wooed by a proud princess. The prince abducts the maiden and is followed by Nikh, the assassin him, chasing clothes and assembling a set of prince. The complication brings out a beautiful character story, with thrilling incidents, but finally ends right side up. The Star's feature for Sunday is Criterion. The Universal jewel deluxe attraction, "Bilid Husbanda," will be the Criterion feature Sunday. The story is unique. It develops in the Alpe (not during the war), among the lowering mountains, mostly on their precipitous sides, the sight of which is aye inspiring. An American doctor, his wife, and an Austrian officer are the principals. The constant attention of the officer to the new selected wife, running her sympathy, in the end to teach the teacher a lesson in the themes. The picture is absolutely gripping. Duplow Poster, Maryland Hotel leaves Friday night for Lansville, Ky., where it will meet the Kentucky Dr. Mr. Poster is quite a well-known short about town and he will be seen in the center of the spotlight at the Blue Grass city. 13.
