Big To Move To St. Louis. By GEO. W. BUCKNER Special Representative of the National Urban League Tulsa with sixty-four millionaires, has been rated as the richest city per capita in the United States. From the Negro population boasted of caring for nearly all their wants. From the railroad station and a few thousand people to a brand new city of approximately 100,000 people in twenty years is the marvelous history of Tulsa. So fast did the city grow that it forgot to mention the mission for a successful city. For years white hoods patronized dives operated in Negro districts under the protection of the law. I was told that fully 700 dome peddlers and over 200 "whoc" joints openly did business in Tulsa. Corrupt practices and lawlessness of every description were accepted as an order of the day. The lower types of the whites and blacks freely mingled. This in brief was the background of Tulsa, the modern Sodom, which gave to our country a new page. The Negro boy who stumbled upon the white elevator girl in the Drexel Building simply, served to bring on the clash which had been gathering momentum during the past two years. In an effort to regenerate the city the present Mayor Evans, like the East St. Louis Mayor, Fred Mollman was elected by the Nrgro vote. And in East St. Louis and Tulsa, the Nrgro suffered at the hands of a weak city government. I spent who days in the city to learn about the groups and it is my careful opinion that the blame for the riot should be placed on the weak city government and white hoodlums who made up their minds between midnight Tuesday and Wednesday morning to drive the Negro from the town. It is estimated that between five and seven thousand degrees have been set. Between thousands and there sheltered in tents provided by the Red Cross and in the few remaining homes which the hoodlums passed by thirsty the occupants were white, or the property owned by white people. Riot Planned There has been much question as to whether or not the riot was planned. There has been sufficient evidence to indicate that the whites were thoroughly organized their plans before they made the attack. At 5 o'clock on Wednesday morning the bell rang and the mob began to move in squads of six to fifty, ordering the men and women out of their houses in their night clothes. They were, sent to the Convention Hall, to be handed over to all the valuable goods, even planes and gas stoves. When everything valuable had been taken, one fellow would yell, "striker off boys!" Airplanes hovered near the Negro section and dropped turpentine balls upon buildings. So systematically did the mobbing squaw move that by 11 o'clock the whole Negro section was been with dead and women lying here and there in the wake of a devastated section and thousands made homeless. Reaction There has been a decided reaction in Tulsa since the riot. Aside from what the relief agencies, principally the Red Cross, have done, little consideration has been given to the Negro. The public Welfare Board, made up of a group of the leading citizens of the Additionian General City, Barrert, was dismissed by the city administration on the ground that it was dictating the policies of the city. In addition, the Chamber of Commerce and other civic organizations were also ordered to vacate the City Hall on September 1st. Furthermore, before the embers of the burned district had cooled, propaganda had been sent about to turn the Negro district into an urban park, given at all as to whether the Negroes desired it, or whether they would sell. This has indeed caused the most bitter reaction on the part of the leading Negro citizens. And up to the time I left Saturday night, the gap between the races seem wider than at any time since or before the riot. Rebellition The question of rehabilitation is now apperiment in the minds of the whites in Tulsa. The Negroes lack of the banks to mobilize their property and open their businesses again that the whites for the first time last Saturday invited them into conference. But most of the business men are as yet undecided as to just what they will do. I talked with Mr Williams, the owner of the Dreadland Theatre. He stafhed he was ready to rebuild as soon as he was satisfied the Negroes would have to have the required funding a more The St. Louis Argus the colored business men now in Tulsa. The firm of Elliott & Hooker will not re-establish business in Tulsa regardless of the outcome. Mr. S. D. Hooker, of that firm, has recently visited St. Louis and in all probability, according to his conversation with me, will establish business here. This firm, enjoyed a large patronage among the white people. The insurance value alone on the stock was $20,000. Inter-Racial Committee The inter-racial committee of Tulsa, organized by the representatives of the Southern Inter-racial Committee and myself, promises to render effect- ful, economic and educational inter- portions for the Tulsa Negro. It should be the means of creating a new community consciousness where its lack has been so notoriously conspicuous. To Rebuild Negro Section At Tulsa, Oklahoma Following the race war at Tuba, speculators of all kinds are either on the grounds) or by proxy using every possible method to get what was left after the footers and the fire in the Negro section of the city. It is said that every means will be used (whether fair or foul) to keep the Negroes from rebuilding where their own land has been lost. In as much as only the land is left, the land grabbers will meet some disappointments. If the plans of the East End Welfare League which has been formed to protect the holdings of the Negroes. This organization, according to a statement by S. D. Hooker who was one of the victims, will assist all who are wiling to remain and rebuild, or will buy and pay a suitable price to those who must sell. It is said that the American Woodmen a fraternal organization of Denver, Colorado, has offered one hundred and fifty-thousand dollars to help rebuild the homes. Other fraternal organizations are said to be ready to help literally. UNION MEMORIAL SENDS MORE THAN $1000 TO TULSA, OK In response to a call for help by the Colored Citizens' Relief Committee of Tulsa, Oklahoma, Rev. B. F. Abbott, pastor of Union Memorial Church gave the people a chance to assist, and the people brought together $100 in cash and clothing and it was dispatched to Tulsa at once. METEORIC SHOWER DUE HERE SUNDAY Scientists inform us that the inhabitants of this part of the globe will be treated to meteoric showers this coming Sunday night. June 26. The display will be in connection with the launch of the Comet to our solar system. The comet been in our neighborhood several months. On June 7, it was nearest to the earth, about 10,000,000 miles away. The Rev. Martin S. Brennan, astronomer, says "it is never visible to the naked eye. It is the ninth magnitude and has to be studied through powerful telescopes. "The earth will reach that point in its path closest to the waste matter left behind by the comet's tale at 4:30 on the afternoon of June 25," said Father Brennan. "There should be a meteoric shower that shall evening but unfortunately our part of the earth will be covered in snow slide. The following evening however, will be partly in front and should see the shower. "The constellation Cygnus, in the northeastern quadrant of the sky, will be the point where the shower appears, and it should be visible from the time darkness falls and practically all night. Remember that the shower is only probable. But it comes, you can't help but it." The shower is due to particles of waste matter, left behind by the comet, being attracted by the earth and falling through its atmosphere, undergoing combustion as they fall. There will be no need for algae, as none of these particles will reach the earth.

ST.LOUIS,MO.,FRIDAY.JUNE24,1921 HARDING PLANS TO STUDY THE RACE QUESTON Asks To Be Informed Of The Transactions At Detroit Convention. Will Proceed Early As Possible Along Line Of Message. Special To The Argus NEW YORK June 22. President Harding, in a letter to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, made public today, says he plans to proceed as early as possible to study the Race question, with a view to anchoring the treatment accorded to the Negroes as outlawed by the Congress. President Harding also said in his letter to Mr. Johnson that he would "be glad to be informed of the transactions of the convention at Detroit and to receive any suggestions from it that may be helpful in developing a constructive policy." President Harding's letter in fall is as follows: June 18, 1921 My dear Mr. Johnson: "I have been much interested in what you have written me about the forthcoming Twelfth Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People of Detroit. Of my own interest in behalf of the effort of your Association I hardly need assure you for your at-tention to public expressions of my views. In my first message to the Congress, on April 12, of this year, I included the following paragraph: "Somewhat related to the forgoing human problems is the race question. Congress ought to write the stain of barbaric lynching from the banners of a free and equally representative democracy. We face the fact that many millions of people of African descent are number 4 among our population, and that in a number of states they constitute a very large proportion of the population that is unnecessary to account the difficulties incident to this condition, nor to the emphasize the fact that it is a condition which cannot be removed. There has been suggestion, however, that some of its difficulties might be mobilized by a human and enlightened consideration of it, a study of its many aspects and an effort to formulate, if not a policy, at least a national attitude of mutual satisfaction possible adjustment of relations between the races, and of each race to the national life. One proposal is the creation of a commission embracing representatives of both races, to study and report on the entire subject. The proposal has real merit. I am convinced that in mutual tolerance, understanding, charity, recognition of the interdependence of the rights of all human beings, the need to rightness, adjustment. "At this time, I do not feel this. I can add anything very significant to the foregoing. I wish your convention to be assured, however, that I design just as early as possible to proceed further along the line of the expression to the Congress. I feel strongly that there is opportunity for acquaintance of great and lasting good with the members of our respective lists the cooperation of intelligent and broad leaders of both races will serve the most useful purpose. "As evidence of the increasing and gratifying interest throughout the country in this entire set of problems, I am glad to be able to tell you that since the delivery of the address to Congress on April 12th, a great number of commendatory communications have come to me, indicating that in all sections of the convention there is a deep desire for effective achievement along these lines. "I will be glad if you will extend my greetings and best wishes to the convention. I hope the Association may enjoy a larger and constantly enlarging usefulness, and that in the near future it may be possible to set up some instrumentalities with which I can work to accomplish my desired. I will be glad to be informed of the transactions of the convention and to receive any suggestions from if that may be helpful in developing a constructive policy. Very truly yours.

What Foreign Papers Think of Race Riots In The United States The article which follows is an editorial which appeared in The Mail and Empire, Toronto, Canada, under date of June the 9th. The National Association for the American Civil Rights People is endeavoring to put the treatment of the 1200 Killed RACE WAR IN THE SOUTH "It appears that the tragedy in Tulsa Oklahoma, in which thirty lives were lost and a million dollars' worth of property was destroyed was owing to the ignorance of a few people as to the meaning of a word in common use. As the New York Herald says: "a word killed thirty men." A Negro accidentally trod on the foot of a white girl. She rebound him, answered him, and wrestled him in the arrest of the Negro. A newspaper announced that he was held on a charge of assaulting a white girl. The words have an omnious meaning through the South. They have been heard many times as a justification for lynching. Immediately the news spread round the town, and a gang gathered. The Negroes word of and they protect their race whose chief fault was that he had stopped on somebody's foot, and had not immediately apologized in a manner sufficiently. Chesterfieldian The two armed lands came into collision and in a few minutes the original cause of the arming had been forgotten and whites and blacks fired upon each other at sight. The Negroes restored to the scene that they were pursued by the whites, who set fire to the houses and drove innocent Negroes screaming into the streets, where they were shot down.

White Supremacy has, noting to ended until the Governor sent troops to the scene. He has said since that the would have been no troop that had either the chief of police or the sheriff possessed the slightest nerve and had shown the lawless whiteness. failure of the concessions as attributed to the fact that they are part of an political machine that has corrupted the administration of justice and unwilling to offer some possible assistance. Whatever the excuse for the riots, it is plain enough that in the South and South-West mobs require small provocation to attack Negroes. Nor are these mobs made up exclusively of rowdies who are always ready for any kind of mischief. Frequently they are led and incited by prominent whites. Communities approve these acts neatly, especially when the Negro victims are accused of solitous offenses against white women, but these offenses are alleged to be part of the black lynching. Officers who light off the men and sometimes kill or wound them are almost certain to be defeated in the next election, and their interest, therefore, is not to enforce the law but to conceive at lawlessness. The system of electing police chiefs as sheriffs is partly responsible for this, but we doubt if any other system will put an end to lynchings in communities where the anti-Negro sentiment is strong. In their hearts millions of Americans deny the equality of the Negro and when he tries to gain the opportunity offers they are exempt to show in bloodthirsty fashion not only their detestation of crime but their detestation of the Negro's claim to have equal rights to citizenship with the Southern whites. DAILY LYNCHINGS HELD DOWN SOUTH Negro Burned At Stake After He Is Sentenced To Hang. Another Forced To Climb Tree To Be Shot Down. Trusty Hanged. MOULTREIL, Ga., June 18, John Henry Williams, Nigro slayer of Lorem Wilkes, 12 years old, a white girl, was burned at the stake today by a mob after he had been convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to be hanged July 8. The prisoner was taken from the officer at the stake today by a mob after he had been convicted of first degree murder and was rushed to the scene of his crime, where he was tied to the stump of a tree. Williams smoked a cigarette as a match was applied to the fuel around him, and he made buttle enquiry as the flames slowly burned him to death. It was reported that he made a full confession. The mob quietly dispersed after the lynching. No arrests have been made. Forced To Climb Tree. McCORMICK, S. C., June 19, Herbert Quireels a Negro charged with attacking a man of the same race was lynched his afternoon. The victim was captured by a pose of citizens. Following identification by the victim, he was forced to climb a tree and was then riddled with bullets by the mob as though they had traced a Squirrel or Opossum. Trusty Is Hanged. JACKSON, Mist, June 20—Louis Wimberly, an 18 year old Negro convict was lynched late this afternoon in Rankin County seven miles from this city. Wimberly was a trusty, who worked around the residence of Assistant Sergeant Berryhill. This morning about 8 o'clock while Mrs. Berryhill was at home alone with her little 5 year old daughter, he is said to have attacked her, knocking her on the head, rendering her unconscious. He tied her and while in that condition criminally assaulted her. After two physicians had worked on her for two hours she gained consciousness and told of the assault. Two other Negro trusty compacts made Wimberly several miles free the farm, and brought him back. As a matter of precaution, Traveling Sergeant Sam Nunery was ordered to bring Wimberly to Jackson and place him in the Hinds County Jail. While attempting to do this he was overpowered by a mob and his prisoner hanged. Sergt. Nunery says that he and his assistant J. E. Lilly, with Wimberly, in a wagon, had just left the gates of the connet farm where the road passes down to the dozen men with handkerchiefs tied over their faces, stepped into the road and covered them with shotguns.

A Square Deal For Every Man THE MISSOURI APPOINTMENTS UP TO SPENCER A. E. Malone Believes President Harding Will Make Some Presidential Appointments Of Race Men Chance The question of Negro Presidential appointments has not been definitely settled according to a statement by A. E. Malone who has just returned from Washington. Mr. Malone during his brief stay in Washington viewed quite a few Senators and representatives on the question and from the answers he bees that there is still a chance for appointments to be made by the President. "I am sure" said Mr. Malone that we as a group have many friends in Congress and if no appointment made by President Harding it will not be the fault of Congress. I talked with Mr. Adams, chairman of the Republican National Committee, Senator Signer of Missouri, Senator McKinley and McCormick of Missouri, and congressman Dyer of Missouri, of the congressional belief that the President could not afford to disappoint the Colored people of the Nation at this time." When asked whether the Negroes of Missouri would be considered for Presidential appointments, Mr. Mahone said "Missouri has a chance, but a deal of time has been lost which will have its effects, because of the position Senator Spencer has taken. This does not apply to the Colored of the Senate to the whites of well. One seems to know his position on any subject relative to his official duties. When asked about the U. 8. Reg.orship, Mr. Mahone said he believed that a colored man would be appointed. Washington was not my objective point when I left St. Louis. We went for a rest in the mountains of the Carolinas. We went into the hot bed of the fight against lily-whitism and the white supremacy we came to go to Washington to help in their fight. We were given much consideration by the Senators and representatives. My Dyer of St. Louis gave those men every possible consideration, not by mere words, but he went with them and assisted in getting their case before the proper parties. But Senator Spencer was not so out-spoken on the subject, but seemed rather reserved. We have a hard fight before us in the State and we shall lose a deal unless the Spencer leaders are able to get together. Many of the leading positions of the State were seen in Washington during the past week. Among these were: Walter S. Dickey, of Lansing City; E. Morent Riley, recently appointed governor of Porto Rican; Monacob Bable, National Committee, Nat Goldstein of St. Louis and Clement, Chairman Republican State Committee.

According to Mr. Cohen in an interview with the Associated Negro Press representatives, President Harding informed him of his policy with reference to appointments in the South.

Meanwhile frauds are endevoring to blackmail the poet-millionaire, and he is saved from a scandal when the Princess, at the risk of her own reputation, gets into his bed in negligence to thwart the designs of the other woman.

Many different kinds of novelties were in the hands of the guests and the good matured, fun loving crowd; with merry quib and hearty laughter; made the whole affair seem quite a "Midmummer Night's Dream." The fairly superb orchestra was in wonderful form. "Every number rendered was not with instant favor. Special mention may be made of 'Kid' Alston's "Chimes Blues"; also a new idea put on by the band, a quintette special. "Yoca Dance"; featuring Messrs. Jefferson, Drake, Powell, Alston, "Pee West" and Miss Scott. The singing playing orchestra idea "caught on" big and will no doubt be imitated. The entertainers were in splendid voice and put over many pleasing hits. Miss Eldise Johnson scored heavily in a special "Solo Dance." "Pee West" was the life of the squad and won frequent applause. The chicte department spring a new one; the extra fancy "Jumbo Sipah" weighing one pound and a half and as tender as butter; really delicious. About 180 persons responded to the call and it was a truly representative gathering. After the recital, of the Coliseum by the Harry T.

JACK JOHNSON NO LONGER CONFINED IN PRISON FROM the Kansas City Sport World. LEAVENWORTH KANS., June 23— If you have any business with Jack Johnson go to Leavenworth. Yes, but do not make the mistake of going to the Federal Prison looking for him, or you will be dearmed to disappointment. Johnson is—and he isn't. That is, he is in prison only as far as the record book goes, but not in reality, oh no. Upon taking charge of the Federal prison recently by the resignation of the former warden, Mr. Biddle who has in justice towards all regardless color decoded to make different arrival events relative to the welfare The Little House With the Big Program At Popular Prices PROGRAM CHANGED DAILY of Johnson. Accordingly he had him moved outside the walls and placed in the Warden's residence where he now resides and looks after the physical condition of the warden and his son. Jack also drives a big high powered car owned by the warden and can be seen from time to time speeding along the out roads, and alone. At the time the writer called for Johnson he was informed that he was not in and would not be in until late evening as he had gone fishing, tuking the warden's son along for company. Not to be out done the correspondent decided to go joy riding until Johnson put in his appearance. Driving away from Leavenworth about thirty miles he discovered Johnson busily engaged in fishing with seemingly not a care in the world. Between correspondent and fishing he divided thirty minutes and then packed up and passed the way to Leavenworth and home—for the next 11 days. New Warden, Prince of Good Fellows Warden Biddle is making a hit with most of the unfortunate who are confined in the Federal prison and in many instances he has made the burden lighter by seeking out the deserving ones and bestowing upon them privileges and liberties in keeping with his humanitarian ideals. So far not a single one has abused these special favors—It would seem that at last those who are unfortunate enough to come to this house of "Missing Men" can for once shake that feeling that has so tenaciously overshadowed them—like serifelnis on guard—"Abandon all hope ye who enter here." The Associated Negro Press: It is interesting to note the difference in the public attitude toward these two American champions. One might think: Well, the attitude toward Jack Johnson was due to the fact that he was adjudged by a court as guilty of a crime. No, no; when Johnson first became champion, he had not been into criminal court; he had not been convicted or even accused of any crime when he whipped Jeffries at Re Guaranteed The Coolest Theatre In The City ill" 3039 OLIVE with the Big Program car Prices ANGED DAILY purple Sage' Always Feat the Latest Screa LLING ROMANCES And Pictorial A REAL TREAT FOR no, and at that time and until long after, he was even in better repute than Dempsey, inasmuch as Johnson's wife had never taken him before the public. Johnson came into ill repute, mark, you, after he had won the championship and after he had defeated every white man who had tried to regain it. But public opinion went down, away down on Johnson and the whole boxing business as soon as the Remo fight was over,—and it was the backing of this public opinion which made it easier for those who wanted to set the trap which got Johnson entangled with the law later; you might say that this, state of public opinion inspired and insured that he would be entrapped, sooner or later. But let us see now the difference between these two "Jacks". It looked as if boxing was soon going to be forbidden all over the United States, when Johnson became the leader, even the Congress hurried to pass laws to hamper and hinder it. Now in the Dempsey regime, Cabinet officers visit the raining quarriers and have their smiling photos made shaking hands with the acceptable fistic king. All the churches jumped in to "resolute" against the "acient and honorable sport after the battle at Reno. On the day before the battle" they did not know whether to pass resolutions or not; but on the day after the battle they were sure that it was the most degrading practice in all America, even lynching being overlooked. On the day before the battle, the Atlanta Constitution, predicting that Jeffries would win, said that "the greatest battle of the century" will take place at Reno tomorrow, and will settle the matter of the "superiority" of the white race; but on the day after the battle, the same Atlanta paper, said, "It was a brute fight and the biggest brute won." Congress and state legislatures reflected this public mind by various laws some of them prohibiting the showing of the moving pictures of the Reno fight. If this attitude had not depended on the outcome of the fight, the picture people would have been warned not to make the pictures and spared the expense. But the barbarity and horribleness of the ageold sport had dawn upon the great majority of the United States public until Jack Johnson's long black wrist had done their skillful work.

Why? Because they knew who was going to win the fight, but after the fight they knew who would always win in that picture. Hence the resolutions by all the religious, civic and reform bodies—memorials to legislatures from the Tweedle-Dee Womur's Missions to the Tweedle-Dum Merl's Bible Class. All preachers of the white churches, even some of the colored preachers, instead of enjoying a good laugh, ried "to show up well," and denounced the sport. But since Dempsey has been running well, the time honored sport is about to regain the standing which it had in the days of Troy and Greece and Rome, when the great boxer described in Virgil's Acenid sent his hard leather-tipped knuckles through flesh and bone and broke the jaws of his opponents. If men will exhibit such humorous inconsistencies, why shouldn't we have our laugh at them? Just a friendly tip to those religious societies who would still like to see boxing up. See if you cannot set the winner of the Dempsey-Carpentier battle to fight Harry Wills, or almost any other of the three or four big black boxers who are hungry to meet the winner. The fist of one of these can knock a bigger hole in the boxing business in thirty minutes than a thousand and sermons in the next ten years. --WANT ADS-- TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY FOR SALE—A Simmons bed and springs, new.; $83.

During the extra sessions of the signature there will be many bills and measures to claim the attention of that law-making body. We are informed however, that all legislation that is to be considered during this extra session must be recommended by the governor. ANTI-LYNCHING The present administration including both branches of the legislature is committed to a program which includes an anti-lynching bill. It is yet fresh in the minds of the voters of the State that the platform of the leading parties of the State call for such a program. So there is little or no doubt but that the lawmakers of the State are ready to set if given the opportunity to do so. RESPONSIBILITY UPON THE GOVERNOR Governor Hyde has shown a deal of interest in the welfare of the State but the one debt he owes the people is such laws and such legislation as will make this old State a safe place in which the people shall dwell. We do not know anything that the governor could do which would render a greater service to all the people of the State than to recommend a law against mob violence and lynching. A lynching or an outburst of mob violence in the confines of any state is a disgrace to the said stait. Laws as preventative measures are safety values which will hold in check the mob spirit. Surely the governor has the courage to recommend such laws. The thoughtless, the uninformed, and the ignorant, will consider all anti-lynch law as a special favor to a certain class of citizens. But the thoughtful, the aggressive and those who have the interest of the State at heart will know different. We see no reason for delay. The State has suffered enough in the past for lack of adequate laws. Its a false delusion on the part of those who think "there is plenty time yet." The people of the State have banored Governor Hyde with the highest executive office of the State, will he render his best service in return?

While we have thought that the Mayor was honest in his professed gratitude for what we as a group did for him, but his conduct since he has been in office has surrendered to our minds. If we say he was honest in his proffession, then he is doubtless a coward at heart. If he is fearful of criticism, because he would dare reward his Colored constituents, whom he says elected him Mayor, then he is the wrong man for the high office. We are told that a Committee called on the Mayor recently and suggested some of the things the Mayor might do for the Colored people of the city, but the Mayor turned them down "cold turkey."

The colored vote polled was rather light, being a little less than one half of the registered vote, about 2000 or less. Thus the election of the colored member of the Hard was faded and the vote of the latters by the Democratic vote, an evidence of astute political strategy, which has caused considerable comment.

Colored Man Refuses Another Million Dollars BUZZARDS BAY, Mass., June 22—Charles Garland, who a few months ago refused to accept his 1,250,000 share of his father's estate, has just been granted the estate of an uncle. Barefooted, tanned and happy, Garland is leading the life of a farmer here. "Men become great by following their identities," Garland says. "Money kills idealism; trust preached this. I am a professing Christian." "A society based on money is the wrong thing," he continued. "All men are in a state of private possession—from the desire of one man to have more than another. The real things—facts and ideas cannot be bought and paid for." He says he will need I will give it to them. "And if they have something I need I must take it but not on a money basis. I will want to cut. I will plant my foodstuffs and grow my vegetables." Then I am producing what I need and not robbing any one." Colored Y. M. C. A.

COMMUNITY TRAINING HELD AT CHICAGO Associated Negro Press (CHICAGO) Ill., June 23.—For the past two weeks the National Organization of Community Service has held a training school for teachers from the District of Columbia. These workers were brought together for the purpose of giving technical training to new workers and adding to the inspiration of the community. Courses were offered in the technique of organization, physical and social recreation, community music, and community drama and paganry. The school was under the direction of the Department of Community Service Training Schools. Closely associated with Dean Rogers in this work was Mr. E. T. Atwell, Director of the Bureau of Colored Music in the University of Wisconsin. A large staff of special instructors and lecturers Peter W. Dykema who is in charge of the Department of Music of the University of Wisconsin. Miss Nina R. Lamplph, Director of the Department of Music of the State of Michigan. Among those who visited the school and contributed no little to the pleasure and profit of the students and faculty might be mentioned W. W. A. Moore, of the Associated Negro Press; Mrs. Olivia Bust-Banka of the University of the City of New York; the Urban League; Mrs. James McCoy alum of the W. Y. C. W.; Mr. Chuckey A. Bypatt, of the Associated Negro Press; and Mrs. Jena Junger of the Best Court. Among the red below冠 of the school was a visit to Mr. Londo Tart at his studio. A careful study was made of the Hull House and the work of its management and activities. The school officially closed with Class Day Exercises at the Hotel Vincentes. At the close of an in-room ceremony, the faculty certified the Explorers was presented by the class in honor of the Dean and faculty. The workers left for their respective fields on Saturday, June 18th. A list of class members: W. Gortrude Brown, Olga Carter, Alice Chille, Corinne Christy, Ethel R. Chuck, R. A.

G. Addison, Eatha Fults, Ada McKinney, S. Ozella Community Service among Colored People has taken tremendous strides in the period since the war. Their service and the development of self expression as well as talent among a too often neglected element, is making the work increasingly popular. Ernest T. Atwell, chief of the work, is declared to be the real moving spirit behind the organization's success. Mr. Atwell, who is one of the best known in the country, brought to the work years of experience with Colls. P. Huntington, and of Tuskegee Institute. It is stated that Community Service will be extended over the entire country. The Periscope Bp Associated Negro Press WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT By the Health Hygiene and Examining BY the Chicago Herald & Examiner "The Town Tomorrow," a magazine published in New York City has had since in beginning a Negro woman in its employ. Recently it attempted to renew the lease of its office the agent of the building presented to the city by the department of Negroes. Rather than consent to this clause, the magazine moved, Georgia ex-director Jorsey spoke and wrote of the sort of "peonage" which in one case had resulted in the murder of eleven Negroes as a disgrace to the whole state. Resident at the University of Georgia an organization is said to have been formed to force him out of the state. Manifestations such as these disturb many Americans more even than do such plots as that at the University of the same sort of dehumanized human nature which is shown in robbery and murder. We are aware of it, and can meet it by legal measures. Tulsa as a city, is as much opposed to and ashamed of such rioting as is abroad which would object to the employment of Negroes who are competent for their jobs, or to the protest by citizens of crimes against Negro cities, then we are in a bad way. Perhaps the purpose of internal investigation we need a more humative impartial and unsparing investigation than in this matter. Such an investigation will neither present slips nor modify race feeling to the extent that it exists but the time approach we need to take action necessary, and as a basis for that action we need far more exact information than apparently is accessible to our authorities at present. MEN AND BUSINESS (By Richard Sullivan) No people in the United States matter more from the lack of education over crowding and bad saturation than the grossness of the poverty in the Philadelphia City Hall there are 270,000 Colored person Those of that number who live in Philadelphia are 100,000. Anybody who doubts this statement might learn the facts by a trip through the Negro districts, those of South Philadelphia particularly. Back in 1907 some forward-looking Colorado men established a little hospital for the sick. Neocentrism and Flatwater St. conducted wholly by Negroes. They had but one building, an ordinary building. They struggled along for years. In 1819 those men did a remarkable thing. They bought for $130,000 the Protestant Episcopal Divinity School at Woodland avenue and a hospital and six and one half acres of land. The buildings and land are worth at least $500,000. From a $1,000 plant to one half worth a million dollars in a big building, they are not only that, but they have made great headway. They have reduced their $100,000 mortgage by $20,000. Seventy-five per cent of this $20,000 came from their donations, mortgaged their homes to help carry the mortgage on the hospital. The managers look to the Colored people for support and they are getting it but they do not have the money to do that they are doing a really fine work. The hospital has 100 beds. All the doctors, nurses and interns are Colored. All the patients are, too. This hospital is the factoring company, handling the weak and the broken and for sitting physicians and nurses to lessen human lills and suffering. It is the largest hospital in the world operated entirely by women and in which each morning the nurses attend service. The hospital needs a lot of things to meet its ever-increasing needs. It should have a pavilion for tuberculosis patients. (The Negro of Africa the Negro of America: has it to one third greater degree per capita than the white.) Now the Negro had it to 50 per cent greater degree than the white, but now the proportion is not so white. It needs a convalescent hospital. It needs a neat finishing. It needs a clinic. There has been a great work of self-sacrifice in the Colored people to support Mercy Hospital, for the arey proud of it and its growth has done much to stimulate and inspire them. They have shown an ability to understrain and inspire them, responsible work for their own purposes. But it isn't fair that they should bear all the harden. They have not received fair treatment from the whites. The very fact that they training has been a serious, very serious, handcuff to them economically and to the whites also. Well people are an asset to the state, the LICE and the sanitation. If it gold all can broaden its sphere greatly through caring for many more people, through training more and more Colored physicians and through exoskeleton too, by additional equipment, although today it has more than some hospitals. It needs a complete x-ray outfit, an elevator for carrying patients up and down, a fitting and the various big buildings need repairs and painting. The doctors out at Mercy Hospital are well trained. Some are from Howell Hall, from Jefferson High School, and from the adult prodigy and chief surgeon, in a remarkable man. He preaches the gospel of good civilization and justice to the people. He makes that people bodies strong and their minds strung so they will be better citizens. And all the time he preaches that for the prop development of the hospital he trained doctors and well-trained nurses, and only through institutions like Mercy Hospital can they be obtained * NATIONAL PRESS WEEK The Associated New York News. The recent decision of Postmaster General Haya, restoring to the country the freedom of the press, gives rise to the thought that the people of million accept without fully realizing full value and power of newspapers. The newspapers of the nation, large small; daily, weekly; straight and horizonal or curvilinear the background of national feeling and thought. The welfare of the people, and the nation, are helped or hindered by the character of the people, who make the nation a place for public consumption. In commercial progress, obedience to and respect for law, in encouraging mutual tolerance civic betrayment and individual freedom, newspapers set a standard of attalment. That, for the most part, newspapers appeal to the better side of humanity, and defend the right in all things, attests the high sense of responsibility of the press. Freedom of the press being one of the cardinal parts of constitutional privilege, which is seldom abused, demonstrates the faith of the fathers, and present day institution of it the high degree of success. For the first time in history, the President of the United States is a newspaperman, an editor, of expert opinion, and a master of newspaper success and importance that is very interesting and impressive. That the time is at hand when a week should be set apart for the purpose of focusing national attention of newspapers, seems to be without argument. All newspapers everywhere could gladly jobs in this effort; and it would also afford an occasion to give the public an opportunity to get attention in newspapers in America, and to pay tribute to the unselfish devotion of members of the Fourth Estate in the patriotic development of the nation. The President could be a proclamation, the lizard school could have special exercises and the ministers could preach special sermons. Special attention could be given to the part class newspapers play in music and to the part class newspapers in this field representing all races, nations and fields of thought. In fact, the public would be surprised to learn of the wide range of newspapers in the literature discussed in an exhaustive review in the Literary Digest on the topic of foreign affairs, all the comments compulsory initative newspapers of one nationality. By all means, give us a National Press Week and let the people know the facts about the newspapers everywhere. Addresses by distinguished Southern white men, have marked the public gatherings of the year at Hampton and Tukuee. Ex-governor Bickett speaking at Hampton, recently said of the Ku-Kuxu Klan, "proclaimed from the housetop ought not to be heard by a loyal American officer. The Ku-Kuxu Klan believes in the whisper." While confessing the injustice done the Negro both and South, the governor was challenged by the Ku-Kuxu Klan, hastening the day of your redemption, and hate will always hinder. The one safe path for the Negro to follow is the path that leads straight to the door of the white man's conscience. Rev De Abby Jones of Kaukee, declared that Ku-Kuxu Washington had done more for his race than even Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln set his right to freedom by demonstrating his capacity for it. "Bookworm so lived that he segered the redicent Negro people," the Negro people. He removed a supreme barrier to the progress of his race." Dr. Dillard's address at Hampton on General Armstrong was a noble tribute from the South to a great Norwegian leader. The Speaking of Armstrong's faith in Southern whites, and in their program, "slow but sure," toward a better education for the Negro, he said, and could help to lift and could help us think more of General Armstrong forty years ago and of how we would rejoice at many facts we could tell him today. "We would know as well as we that we righteousness that should prevail; we would he rejoice over the progress that has been made and is being made year by year. Solid advance in great beings, has always millions of human beings, has always and will be as slow as it is sure." Do You Want The Negro Trade? See That Your Advertisement Appears In This Paper THE HISTORY OF REV. J.K. PARKER'S PASTORAL WORK The sixteenth anniversary of Rev. J. K. Parker, was celebrated last week at which time the following history was read by the church clerk: Master of Ceremonies, Pastor, Omerc, Members and Friends, it gives me pleasure at this time to read a paper in celebration of the sixteenth anniversary of our beloved pastor, Rev. J. K. Parker. I will begin with the condition of the church when I joined, tracing it to the time when Rev. Parker took charge and up to the present time. I united with the church November 11, 1890 which was then located at 15th and Biddle St. Within the next two weeks we moved to 11th and Cass avenue known as the Boards, at which time Sister Georgia Harris was clerk. About six months later I was appointed assistant clerk in 1896, the clerk died and 4 was elected. I received the roll book with names of 200 members. The officers of the church were Brd. Chas, Cox, Tull Cates, Ben Johnson, Win. Chappell, Alban Crawford, Was, Gérard, Ringand, Bibbs, Mother Matilda Shelds, Jemie Hull, E. Krughn, Sidney White, Mother Bibbs. In 1892 we arranged to purchase the property at 22nd and Dickson St., the purchase price being $2,085. We moved from 11th and Cass avenue to 11th and Lucas, the Old St. Paul Chapel, now engine houses, in 1897. In 1000 we moved to 12th and Franklin avenue, then to the Old Westley Chapel, Wash street between 10th and 11th street, where Rev. J. K. Parker in 1002 joined us. In 1933 we moved to 14th and Morgan streets. Biography Of Rev. J. K. Parker It was on a beautiful day, the 12th of December, 1989, that the golden Sun sent forth its brilliant rays and glistened over a home in Jefferson Coun named John Kirk Parker, son of the old Pioneer family of Parkers. The birds sang gaily and all nature seemed in tune and father and mother prayed that God would shape the destiny of their little son, and when sun and vellet its face behind to western hill, there appeared Luna, the queen of night, to shed her rays over the same country home all welcoming the arrival of the new born baby in the warm warmer sun. Him he greeted in a strong healthy hat and attended the public schools of Mississippi. On reaching maturity he went to Memphis, Tenn., where he lived for a number of years working in Industrial Societies. He then came to St. Louis. Up to this time he had shown no inclination to the ministry, but one day a revival sweet through the community where he lived. Its influence caused him to seek the pulpit. After receiving a new girl from a girl from a group of men he Saviour of our sons sent him on a mission to help save the souls of men and to raise the fallen from the slums and place men in the beam of religious light. He studied his people from an educational, industrial and religious standpoint, and with the assistance of the Almoghy God, he has emancipated many of his people from vice, ignorance and poverty. And being led by the Holy Spirit to the original Pleasant soon Baptist Church, then by his wife and Morgan St., in a store fortified God, He made a mind and heart of the congregation that in their midst was a resourceful energetic and determined leader in the person of Rev. J. K. Parker. They at once grapped the opportunity of getting a Christian gentleman and Pastor. a teacher and an example to men. Rev. J. K. Parker was elected pastor of Pleasant Green Baptist Church on Monday night, June 5, 1006. The hand of fellowship was extended to him. We sang hymn in the church by Rev. J. K. Parker. Sister Mattle Mewling sang hymn "hit down in the Kingdom, Lord." It has been said "To the Victor belongs the Spoils." When he came to sixteen years ago, new blood was injected in the veins of Pleasant Green Baptist Members. While some of the loyal members of the church accepted the new administration, yet some of them were disposed to wonder what the results or the effect of the change of administration would mean. But we can say without fear of successful contradiction that J. K. Parker has fully matured up, in fact, he has not patented his own contradiction. That contradiction is true. He has but stable disagreement all the same of love and commitment toward membership grew. Then looking farther, in financial conditions of the church, he raised the money and paid off offilebusiness of property at 23rd and Dickson and the congregation grew an enormous number that he saw fit to build a church. Elliott Ave. and Wash St., which is all paid for. - Aka a pastor and leader, Rev. J. K. Parker ranks second to none. He has taken in all nations to the church from the African to the Jew. He has received in the city of more than Thomasville, The United States, is a mind-changer of men. His oratory is simple but pure, and to the point. The growth of this church is really astonishing to thousands who predicted failure, but God has given him influence, that is beyond man's comprehension. He is the race defender. He is the warrior. He is the solid on three facts; that the success of the coming Negro is based upon concentration, combination and cooperation. It was God that brought all things into existence and that makes Him inofficial. It was Jesus Christ that God made redeemer of the world and in His thumphul resurrection. He commanded His ministers to preach the gospel. We cannot but believe that the fitting qualities of Jesus have long been developed Rev. J K Parker long before the foundation of the world. He is a teacher sent from God. In a way, he is somewhat like the Saviour, slow to anger and quick to mercy. The poor has, been remembered: the unfortunate dead have been kept from the potter's field; thousands have been fed, given clothing, medicine, aid, and provided for. It is never too cold or too warm for Iv. Parker to go to your rescué in time of need of patients; in constant attendance, patients, showing they can aid, and provided for.

HOW MUCH WILL THE PRESIDENT SAVE? The following article by Richard Barry in the June 4 issue of Leslie's Illustrated Weekly is reproduced because it reveals some intimate and extremely interesting facts about the household finances of the White House. It presents information regarding the Presidential Tension. Please inform us of any comments to provide our own expertise. We would be grateful to feature qualified readers. There was formerly in Washington an old attache of the White House, now passed to some other sphere of economics. Once I asked him, "Is it true that Hays was so frugal that he managed to save $6,000 a year out of his salary as President?" This was old servitor, grown gray in the service of our temporary American sovereigns, replied abruptly: "Haven't you got that money about?" He spent $6,000 a year of his salary." Which resulted the saying, that was outworn in the Metropolitan Club years ago and attributed to William M. Eavarts. Each era has its wit. We are now along toward the close of the epoch of Joe Cannon. Before him came Tom Reed. And his predecessor was Eavarts—which was a long time ago. These men, by a process of natural selection, become fame's heirs to most of the epigrams of their time. Some originate with them, and a lot more are attributed to them. Some writer or speaker not quite sure of his own authority, and wishing to lend a name to an expression, either one of his own or one that he has borrowed elsewhere, reaches out with a certain number of audacity and quips as to the chief wif of his family. He bolsters up his piquitous "as Joe Cannon said," and reads once said, "or as "Will Evans was wont to remark." And, as no man is ever willing to deny the authorship of a bright saying, thus deserved fame crystallizes into vivacity ours celebrity. Which is by the wayside, and only to explain that I did not hear Evartis say this, and only heard some one say that he heard Evartis once replied to a caller who asked him why he looked so cheery that morning, "Because I dined at the White House last night and the water flowed like champagne," Which occurred in the reign of Hayes, and is only a bit of collateral gossip to confirm the direct evidence of the old attack. If it is true that Hayes spent only $4,000 a year of his salary, which is quite possible, for him, always he remembered the President is obliged to buy only food and clothing, as every day is furnished him free by his dormitory, it is then also true that he saved $4,000 a year. The salary was then $300,000, having been raised in the preceding administration from $25,000. "And if Hayes saved $44,000 a year, he had at the end of his four years a little sum of $17,000 as a souvenir of his Chief Magistracy of the nation. And if he invested this at five per cent, which was a fair and safe interest rate during his time, he enjoyed for the balance of his days from his presidential savings an income of $8000 per annum. This, of course, is partially speculation, and is based as one can see, on information not entirely infallible. The unindefinite fact remains that we have no bad a President since Grant who did not leave the White House but financed thus when he entered it. At the same time I am sure that no man, from Washington to Harding ever made a dishonest dollar out of the Presidency. Take the list following Hayes. Garfield was in office only five months before he killed, but Arthur who succeeded him for three and a half years is believed to have saved over $50,000 in that time. He entertained liberally. Indeed, that is practically the only way aside from gifts, in which a President can spend money. Cleveland went into the White House a poor man; he resided to private life with a competitor. A large part of this estate he acquired through wise investment, the heiress of his friend,曼克尔, E. C. Benedict, but the initial capital came from his savings from the presidential salary. Bendimil-Havison is believed to have spent only about half his salary McKinley went to Washington in debt. During his five and a half years as President he managed to pay off his debts, and on his death Mrs. McKinley was found to be adequately provided for. Roosevelt saved money in the Presidency. Just how much is not known, but he was a frugal man. He received, during his lifetime, in legacies from his father, and other relatives — sums that aggregated between $175,000 and $200,000. His estate, on his death, amounted to very nearly a million dollars. While in his later years he received a handsome income from his writings, his savings were partially represented by accumulations laid aside during his seven years in the White House. Taft was in debt when he became President. After four years he was out of debt and had a little money laid br. What was the Presidency worth in cash to Woodrow Wilson? We know that previously to 1812 he had practically nothing and that early in 1821 he bought a residence in the city of Washington and paid for it $130,000 in cash or the equivalent. At the same time he is planning to spend a similar amount on a country house, and is so independent that he can certainly rely on a salary of $1000 for a basis on the Queen Victoria. And since in the past when nearly every piece he bought was paid in the Canadian dollar he has now that Alice. If there has been a great deal of change in the way he buys ST. LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, JUNE 24; 1921 ord in that regard surpasses the earlier regime. Mr. Wilson entertained very little during his second term. To begin with, there was the death of the first Mrs. Wilson; then came the war; then resulted Mr. Wilson's illness. Each of these events shut down Executive entertaining to the barest minimum. One person who ought to know esthetics was Mr. Wilson, a former part of the Wilson company of the White House the average cost of the food consumed there was not over $1,000 a mouth. Mr. Wilson had one unique demand on his pocketbook which is not felt by every President. When he was married he received presents from the various sovereigns of the world. Etiquette requires that when any of these sovereigns or any of their immediate family are married a return in kind shall be made. He allowed for gifts, for clothing, for contributions, it is altogether likely that Mr. Wilson saved $6,0000 a year, at least during each of his eight years in high office. This $400,000, added to the income from his books, an income greatly accelerated due to the prestige of his station, has made him independent. Judging by the New President's early months in office it is not probable that the White House bill for food during the Harding regime will be as low as $1,600 a month. It may be twice or three times that, for the Hardings enjoy company of all kids, and the entertaining with them is ever out. Even so, it is hard to see how they can fail to retain something of a nest egg of that monthly check$15,000 or $15,000. Uncle Sam is not at all stung with his first citizen. The old gentleman is not so liberal as is England with his Premier or as is France with his president. However, for a parsimonious Yankee the old gentleman does rather well. Consider the emoluments. First, there is that charming residence at 1000 Pennsylvania Avenue. A real-state denier would exact a pretty penny if he could put that on the market. The old Corcoran house, across Lafayette square, used to get $6,000 a year rent, and it occupied only a twelfth of the ground and was not so favourably located, although in the same neighborhood as 1000 Pennsylvania Avenue. If the Corcoran house was worth $6,000 a year, the White House is worth $400,000, at least. The latter, although of an antiquated architecture, is thoroughly modernized and up to date. It has eight master's bedrooms, each with a private bath with three baths. Moreover, it has its own conservatory, stocked with the best plants and flowers that can be published by the Department of Agriculture, where, among other rare specimens, it may be found a black orchid, of which there are only two in existence, the other belonging to the collection of the former Kaiser and now kept by the German Government in the palace at Potsdam. The architecture at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, though of the antiquated Colonial type, is preferred by some persons to any of the later imported models, and even though it may offer a sophisticated taste, it is still comfortable and homelike. And, of its kind, it is a first-class model. When it comes to to buildings, Turtle Sam again has done rather well. He has not only provided a garage capable of accommodating ten cars, but he has also kept intact and repaired the old stable that is capable of caring for a dozen horses. Even better than that, he supplies both motor cars and horses. President gets absolutely without cost. Not even taxes, or a water assessment. Nor can he spend anything for furniture or rugs, or hangings, or linen, or napery, or silverware, or glassware or crockery, or kitchen utensils. All are there when he comes in, and if he wants anything else he buys them and sends the bill to his Uncle, and the indulgent old fellow never yet has refused anything that has been asked of him for this, his favorite residence. For can the President pay any offer rent, for a wing has been built on the residence for that purpose', and the telephone installed there connects with the White House phone and the two bills go in as one and are paid by one Sam at the end of the month. The thing is true of the electric light bill. The gas is an exception. This is installed in the White House kitchen and is used only for cooking, and as this is purely a private and personal matter Ungle Sam ignores it and lets the President worry his head about it. But think of the servants required to keep up this establishment—the underdog at the front door, the butler and his assistants, the two chefs and their four assistants, the housekeeper her assistant, the fire chambermaker the scallions, the two chantiers, the stable-master, the gardener and his assistants, the maidsmen. Some伞伞 pay every one of them. The President's delegation is to the Red Hat. Duncan prepare the kitchen in which the servants will be, the bake oven prepare it, the meat oven, the ice and the dishonor the stove it and on the dining room is added to eat. But this is only the beginning of the process. The servants and the maidsmen are added to eat. Sumner High Loses Head Assistant John R. Pinkett Resigns To Join St. Louis Agency Of Standard Life. JOHN R. PINKETT The resignation of Mr. John R. Pinkett, as head assistant in the Summer High School came as complete surprise to the city of St. Louis. A short sketch of the life and work of Mr. Pinkett might be interesting as well as an inspiration to other young men. Born at Lincoln, Fairfax county, Virginia, September 27, 1888, he attended the district school under his father and at the age of eleven, he left the county school to enter the public school of Washington, graduating from that city in 1907, he entered Amherst, College, Amherst, Massachusetts, with scholarship won through competitive examination. He finished Amherst in 1911, and taught at Jackson, Mississippi, for two years from which place he came west. Mr. Pinkett was attracted to St. Louis because of the splendid school system, and the opportunities for growth there. He was appointed as Second Assistant in the Summer High School upon recommendation of the Board of Education, and after seven years' service was appointed the last meeting of the Board of Education, June 14, to head assistant. But, this promotion did not deter his plans. Mr. Pinkett in life insurance has been growing since the advent of Standard Life. His first policy of life insurance was written, in that he would be able to pay the life insurance thoroughly—prepared to render service. He has entered upon his life's ambition and deserves every consideration from the public. He will be connected with the St. Louis agency of Standard Life, 2227 Market street. News has just reached us that Mr. J. G. Iskin, principal of Branch Normal Institute, Pine Bluff, Arkansas, has resigned as principal of that school to resume life in Kansas City in all probability, will locate in Kansas City, Mo.

The People's Commercial Company came into being from the outgrowth of the spirit and enthusiasm aroused by the coming of the Negro National Business League to St. Louis in August, 1919. Sometime after the adjournment of the National Negro Business League, Dr. B. F. Abbott, of the Union Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church, called a few of his friends for an informal meeting on the Negro Business Outlook of the city, and out of that meeting grew the People's Commercial Company, which was chartered in March, 1920. This company has about two dozen stock holders. The appended statement will show its progress for the last fourteen months. The company has two grocery stores and some splendid real estate. At a recent meeting of the directors, a forty per cent stock dividend was declared, and it was also decided to raise the capital stock from $10,000.00 to $30,000.00, the par value of a share being $25.00.

Brennan, Executive, Director of Business NEW YORK CITY, June 20 (Special) The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced that largely through the efforts of the New York Branch, Mrs. Hattie Dixon, a Colored woman had been saved from death in the electric car accident. The New York Branch, at the request of Mrs. Dixon's attorney, became active in May, the woman's death has been set for June 16. A petition was obtained representing 42,000 signers among New York State's citizens, and a delegation was sent to call upon Governor Milton in Albany. The delegation was composed of Clifton G. A. French, Rev. Cullen, Rev. Daniel, Rev. Lawton, and John E. Nath. The delegation consisted of a murder in November, 1917, and on appeal of the case, three judges of the Court of Appeals stated their belief that the verdict was the result of a misunderstanding. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced that the New York Branch received a communication from Mirex Dixon's attorneys saying that had the branch not intervened when it did, the woman would probably not have been saved from the electric chair. This is especially fortunate since it has been a tradition for years in New York State that no woman must suffer the death penalty FUTURE OF AMERICAN WILL BE MAIN TOPIC AT DETROIT MEET NEW YORK CITY, June 29 (Special) The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, announced that its twelfth annual conference would be held in Detroit from June 26 to July 1, and would be devoted to a discussion of the future of the American Negro.

Jaym of the Wayne County Circuit Court is to speak.

The subject of the disfranchisement of the American Negro is to receive attention in connection with recent race riots, especially the Tulsa riot. It is expected that victims of the Tulsa riot will be at the conference to give first-hand testimony of what occurred. Among the speakers at the conference will be: Representative Lennidas C. Dyer of Missouri, who has introduced a federal anti-lynching measure; Harry E. Davis, of the Ohio State Legislature; Professor Robert K. Tearlin, author of "The Voice of the Negro"; James H. Maurer, president of the Pennsylvania State Feldstein College; former director of the Bureau of Negro Economics of the U. S. Department of Labor; Norman H. Thomas; and Stenio Vincent, former president of the Haitian Senate and now representative to the American People of the Patriotic Union of Haiti. PAGES 7-12 CUTTINGSOUTHERN REPRESENTATION HELPS "LILIES" The South. National Sec'y Miller Denies The Color Line Is Involved. Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. June 22—Daily newspaper comments special writers, Congressmen, Senators and "everyday citizens," besides the press of the Rare, have filled the air on the subject of the adopted report of the Republican National Committee. There has been great interest concerning the attitude of Northern Colored voters. The Associated Negro Press invited two leading citizens from two different sections of the country to colored votes count," to express their views from Attorney | sasac H. Nutter, Nutter City, N. J., and Attorney William C. Hueston of Kansas City, Mo., and Gary Indiana. Attorney Nutter says: "In my opinion, the Republican National Committee made a tremendous tactical mistake in cutting down southern representation in the Republican National Convention. It smacks of *Lily White* tendencies, and impresses me as being an ungrateful attitude for the loyalty that we have given to party welfare in the face of overwhelming odds. This move is particularly distasteful in the face of Congress being painfully silent on boasted disfranchisement in the South." "There seems to me to be but one course left, and that is for the Colored Republicans of the North to stand solidly for the interests of the Colored citizens of the South, and to make our ballots count among those whom we know will give us a square deal, and against those whose action proves that they will not." "If it is thought that Colored representation in the national convention will be cut down by penalizing the South, Colored voters of the North should place candidates in the field for delegates, and even for members of Congress, in those districts where the votes are the balance of power. We must have it distinctly understood that in citizenship rights we are each for all and all for each." Attorney Emanuel says: "The National Republican Committee in session at Washington, June 6th, gives alluring proof, that the Republican Party can no longer be depended upon as the butler which stands before the American Natives that those who certainly make of us Political nonentities or Serfs." "The committee by its vote, in reducing southern representation in the National Convention, affirms on behalf of the Republican Party, the brutal distrustbishment of the Negroes by the various southern states and aligns itself with the Democratic Party, in making permanent this Disfranchisement. "This action must be rebuked in no uncertain way by those of us who have the privilege of the electorate in the northern and western states, and white in no sense do I favor a general exodus from the Republican party by the Negroes, but from now on, I favor a general 'Roll' Call of all Republican candidates, or where they stand in questions affecting us, and if they are not positively and publicly for us, they are to be counted against us. And we must act accordingly. "In the action taken by the National Committee, the color line or the disfranchisement of the Negroes is not involved." So declare Chance. Miller in a special and exclusive statement for the Associated Negro Press.

Resolutions read as follows: Whereas, it has pleased God, to take from our midst sister Pearl Jones, we fear that we are now this lifetime of respect. She departed this life on Thursday, June 16. She died as she lived, a consistent Christian. She was a member of Harrison Street Baptist Church; a member of the choir; a member of the Ladies Education board; also member of the Eastern Star and associate editor of the Light House and list but not least, was a stunner Sunday school worker and Christian lady. Sister Jones' health began to fall several months ago. She went to姑萨ville for treatment by a specialist, also apparently was in need of bed. Finally, she began to grow worse until death seized her body. Sister Jones ever wore a smile on her face, and always had a word of comfort for the broken hearted. She is gone but not forgotten, she has only fallen asleep in the arms of Jesus. We could say many good things for her; but her life is a living monument that will never decay. We recently heard from a community has lost a loyal citizen and the church has lost a Christian worker. By way of conolence, will say to the bereaved husband and other relatives, you have our deepest sympathy. You have lost a wife you have lost a sister and friend. But cheer up. To live here is only the beginning of life. There, let us remember, little and hope that blessed days, when we shall meet sister Pearl to say goodbye no more. And let us remember the words of Job: "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh, blessed be the name of the Lord." CRYSTAL CITY, MO. Mrs. N. H. Coney Miss Gaily in assisting Rev. Rev. S. L.

Address R. D. WESTER CO; Box 131, Montgomery, Ala. How Much Will The President Save? Continue From Page 7 ing once he either chosen a Government employee and attaches him to the White House, or appoints his favorite to office. Mr. Wilson made his physician an admiral in the navy; Mr. Harding has made his a general in the army. When the President wants to give a very pleasant party he usually decides (or his wife decides) to have extra flowers and music. The Governed greenhouses are notified, and send in the closest floral cakes in the country. Then, as commander-in-chief of the navy, the President orders the Marine Band to appear. The cost of flowers and music—nothing. Or he wants a week-end on the water. He boards the *Mawflower* where he has a fine a steam yacht as is in commission and better manned than Mr. Morgan; for the selected sailors of the Atlantic fleet and the favored graduates of Annapolis sail and command it. It costs Mr. Morgan $75,000, a year to maintain a vessel not so attractive. The President gets his fee for nothing. Or he is called to New York or St. Louis to travel a monument. Naturally, he will do a special or, at best, a special will do to contain the dignity of his office, much as he might like to travel in inconspicuously as a private citizen. But it costs him no money, for Congress sets aside a special fund of $25,000 a year for presidential traveling expenses. And if he makes a very unusual trip like that of Mr. Wilson to Europe, an extra special fund is created. Besides, there are a host of minor perquisites. A man in Connecticut recently grits each Thanksgiving to help identify turkey. Another man in Kentucky, regards the Christmas turkey as his. And so they are. Nearly every day some prize producer of field or garden reaches the White House as a present to the first citizen. A man in Tullo-de heard that Mr. Harding liked the turkey. He bought a private Airlift. No many eggs arrived at Easter—and the best eggs, too—than a distribution had to be made to the poor of Washington. Many magazines and newspapers have the White House on the free list and each day one or more presentation copies of new books are received from publishers and painters are only too glad to make portraits without charge, and photographers never send a bill—unless it be to political headquarters. Thus, while the President receives only $25,000 a year salary, his presidents afford a great deal more than additional. His residency his youth, his motor car, his physician, his horses, his music, his furniture, his travel, his annual fund of foreign aid. Out of his $25,000 per year he does have one more $25,000. It is the same amount as a memorial. ```markdown ``` LEATHERS BLOCKS, PLANGES HAT MACHINEY magically remove him from all the financial restrictions that concern all the rest of us. If we consider it essential that a justice of the Supreme Court should be forever above monetary constraints, it would be desirable that a President should be so. The fact that most Presidents have been able to save the equivalent of a pension fund while in office does not alter the fact that none of them should be obliged to do so. Especially none of them should ever be permitted to be in a position after leaving the Presidency to be able to make an excuse to engage in financial occupations thus necessary. It is degrading to the Presidency. Grant came out of the White House a poor man with an expensive family and the tradition of high place to maintain. The only trade he knew, that of a soldier for which his government had trained him, he could not practice. He was a poor man, and it be lending his name to a Wall street firm which promptly hired him in scandal. That the Justice their superior structure of an ex-president struggling as no ex-president should ever be permitted to struggle. Thus left the White House without a compassibility sufficient to maintain an ex-president properly, and ever since piecing out his income, he artfully as a college professor, partly as a newspaper correspondent, and partly with old jobs of refereeing. When Roosevelt emerged again into private life he promptly commercialized the prestige of seven years as first citizen by selling his newspaper and magazine articles at the best prices obtainable. This was unfair competition to his colleagues of the fourth estate, and it was unfair to his own memory as one of the country's great men. If he had had a pension there would have been no need for it. If he, Wherefore in full possession of his property he should surely prove him practicing law, although he is not a lawyer, or acting as a newspaper correspondent, though he is not a newspaper man, or both. It may not be desirable, it may be un-American to condemn our ex-Presidents to a life of Sotthful inactivity. It may be necessary to give them some place of honor in the Government, such as a life tenure in the Senate, or an emeritus seat in the Cabinet. It may be important that the granting of a pension to ex-Presidents would be an added bulkwork to the integrity of the most sovereign office on earth. However much he may desire the contrary, however much his fellow citizens may assert it, no man who has occupied the White House can ever afterward be on the competitive level with his fellow citizens. Whatever he does must have an exaggerated importance and if that importance is translated into dollars he will be paid for it. The fact that a part of his income will automatically result from the adventitious fact of his ex-Presidence. Therefore, should not Uncle Sam stop in and say, "When you retire I will pay you enough money to live on in a way compaying with your dignity, and I will ask in return that you receive me of the embarrassment of barking you compete with anyone in any gainful calling." He would be raised to any suggestion of creating an eminous office for ex-Presidents. The duties of such position should not be to their liking or suited to their abilities. They might feel that to occupy a lower office than the great one they had held would be less "dignified than to withdraw into private life." In some cases, conferring such an office might prove a happy arrangement, but the result might not always be satisfactory to either individual or nation. The simplest and most Chief Magistrates in a warrant former adequately allowance and permit them to regulate their own lives and activities. Continued From Page 7 can National Committee. Because of the nationwide interest in the subject of the reduction of representation in the National Conventions Mr. Miller was asked to express his views on the recent action. His complete statement follows: "To The Associated Negro Press, 'I am delighted to comply with your request for a statement presenting the reasons for the change of representation in the National Convention and the practical operation of the rule unjustified by the law. In this country commonly called the South, 'The first proposition, I desire to state, is the one I make most emphatic of all. In the action taken by the National Committee, the color line or the distinctionment of Negroes is not involved. In other words, the action taken had nothing to do with the right of the Negro to vote. We were dealing purely with the question of representation in the National Convention and at the same time endorsing the Negro, we were helpful in building up a Republican party in the South. We assume that wherever qualified the Negro ought to vote and will vote. "The purpose of the Committee was two-fold. First, to redistribute representation in the National Convention so as to more effectively represent the Republican thought and the Republican party in the country. The National Convention names the party candidates and should be an nearly representative as possible, thus effectuating the spirit of American institutions. For this reason, states that gave their electorate vote to the Republican party are given two additional delegates to the National Convention. That is an advantage still gains to them. It has been proposed that each Congressional district casting 5000 Republican votes would have an additional delegate. In any Congressional district in the North and south would have the same number of delegates. We have proposed an increase in the number of delegates. tribution of delegates in the South by increasing the numbers in certain southern states, leaving it the same in some and decreasing it slightly in others. Thus the states of Arkansas, Florida, Virginia and Tennessee are given an increased number of delegates. That more power in national conventions under the system than they had in the last two states, Alabama and North Carolina are not changed. They will have the same number of delegates under the new as under the present system. The states of Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Texas have the same national Convention slightly reduced. The posse of this is to increase the representation wherever the Republican vote increases and decrease it. If the Republican vote falls off. This is both logical and fair. Under the system that was adopted there is no chance of any southern state having less than the same power in the next successive convention. It will have more if the Republican vote increases as it should— we seek to preserve presentation in the Nation's government only to the Congressional District having a Republican vote of 250%. This is not done to penalize the South but it is done to require the upbuilding of the Republican party in every congressional district in the South that cannot be represented by a Republican and if every district does come out and comply, the Southern vote will be very much, increased. . . . "Rule Very Liberal." "We made the rule very liberal. If the vote for Mr. Harding in a district amounted to 2500, then that district has representation anyhow. We went further than this, however. If in the election of 1912, a Congressional district delivers a vote of 2500, it will have a satisfactory arrangement. It will not only formulate and in a sense represent the vote of the district, it can in all sections of the South, but will bring out the Republican vote and quite completely change any conditions we now consider unfavorable.

"Personally, I regret there is even a temporary reduction in the Southern representation because, as I have had many years of experience, the South to have the strongest kind of a Republican party, but I firmly believe the rights of the next two or three years will justify my faith that the Republican party in the South will become more active, build up their party organizations, run candidates for, office and change the South from being solidly Democratic to a condition in which the two great parties will fight for preemacy and the right to work for the common welfare.

The message that goes to Washington reads: "We keenly apprehend a renewal of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, since its conception, it has been fateful to the peace of China and if renewed will have a tendency to aggravate Japanese aggression upon Chinese interests and be using influence on the peace of the Far East Great Britain to influence Great Britain to cease strengthening the hands of Japan."

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Sunday School CURRENT TOPICS President: Harding stopped long enough at Lincoln University, the other day to present to its student body the one and complete solution of America's Race Problem. The Negro, in truth, is the only one who can successfully solve the color question. We might as well begin to buckle down to the work of solution today, not tomorrow, today. And we must solve it no matter what the cost in blood or in treasure. The Tulsa affair, reveals to us that the urbane methods of being prosopispoas and decent are not alone Two white men assaulted a Negro girl in the city of Richmond, Va., the other day and straightway Negroes threatened to knack him. It required more than one-third of the local police force reinforced by several hundred plain clothes men and civilians to frustrate the attempt. This is good news. It should be made a dangerous proceeding for white men to prostitute Negro women. This is especially imperative where women are the unwilling victims of prostitution. I am not the woman, black or white, who plans to be biannually. Women in my mind have no less a right than men to elect their own plan of life. But where a woman determines that she shall not be prostituted it becomes our duty to willingly lay down our lives, that she may fulfill her desire in the respect to the utmost limits. My hat is off to these men of Richmond. May they live long and prosper. One of the Negro members of the Illinois Legislature recently introduced a resolution in the lower house which calls upon the people' of the state to discourage the organization of the Ku Klux Klan within its borders. Discourage. What a Joke. The aforesaid member announces that the action of the Ku Klux Klan will more jokingly. A short time sentence denounced the Ku Klux Klan in his native city, Lynchburg. The answer to Mr. Glass' protest was the selection of the Imperial wizard of the Kus as the Director General—or something as high sounding—of the activation activities of the national government. This Illinois statesman is in the process of doing something with more heir to it already being' to make even a dent in the cruel armor of the ill-tempered up-holder of simon-pure Americanism known as the Ku Klux Klan.

LESSON FOR JUNE 28 GOLDEN TEXT-He shall dwell with beam, and they shall be his people, Nev- bear. DEVOTIONAL READING-Rev. 11:14 PRIMARY TOPIC-The Way Jesus Wants Us to Live SOME SOME, THINGS Jesus Revelation 21:1:14 is the passage of Scripture selected for devotional reading. Instead of attempting to review the lessons of the quarter it would be of great interest and profit to enter into a detailed study of this Scripture. The following outline may be helpful. I. The New Heaven and the New Earth (vv. 1, 2); II. The New People (vv. 8-8); III. The New Jerusalem (vv. 9-14). Another way would be to assign the Golden Texts to different members of the class asking them to give the part of the particular lesson which illustrates the teachings of the text. Still another way would be to summarize the different Scripture passages, giving the leading lessons of each. The following is given by way of suggestion: I. The believer's supreme obligation is to present himself as a living sacrifice to God. The grand reason for so doing is that he has received the mercles of God. The one so yielded will love his fellow believer sincerely. II. The believer's body is God's property—the temple of the Holy Ghost; therefore we are under solemn obligation to use it for His glory. III. Since God the Father and Jesus Christ work, it is incumbent upon all to work, and the man who will not work should not eat. IV. God hates the greed that moves men to dislaborate methods in order to get rich. His judgment shall fall upon such. V. True education will lead one to Christ. The one only book which tells about him is the Bible. No one can call himself educated who is ignorant of the Bible. VI. God rested when His work of creation was done. On this basis He has established the law of labor and rest. The obligation to cease from labor is that one may remember God. VII. The church is an organism as the human body. In order that there may be real helpful co-operation there must be membership in that body. VIII. Jesus should be welcomed as a guest into every home. He is an example of an obedient son in the home. IX. The most important question is not "Who is my neighbor?" but "To whom can I be a neighbor?" Being a neighbor is seeing those about who need help and rendering such help in loving sympathy. X. The Christian is a citizen as well as a church member. Intelligent Christians will show proper loyalty to the state. XI. When Christ shall reign as King there shall be peace all over the world between animals and men. The supreme business of the believer in this dispensation is to preach the gospel to all the world as a witness. XII. Jesus came and preached the gospel to the poor, but shall come again to judge the world and reign as King. Since the whole man's duty is summed up by Christ in duty to God and duty to man (Matt. 22:36-40), it would be profitable to go through the quarter's lesson and set down the teachings under I. Duties to God; II. Duties to Man. House Divided Against itself. He who sits above the waterfloods in art working out His way, and man's extremity in as ever, God's opportunity. But if we are to be real shariers in this task of divine reconstruction, and fulfilling of God's purposes for the human family, it be behooves us to do our utmost by prayer and effort to repair the breaches which human waywardness has wrought in that instrument which He has designed, and through which He has chosen especially to work out humanity's salvation—the church of the living God, the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Body of Christ. For until these wounds are healed the church must present herself as a house divided against itself; and, because the Savior's prayer for a unity in the "one fold" remains unfailable, He continues continue to triumph, and the forces which make for righteousness are thwarted—Bishop Howden. Blessed Mysteries of Life. Both death and sleep are blessed mysteries of life. It is of little consequence what time the angel of life spells the door of death for us; the appearance concern for us in whether our hearts shall be pain, and our spirit strong enough to rebel in the states of the Everlasting Day—Newman Hayth. Apostal Press Preserving. James began to preach, and to say, "Begest; for the kingdom of heaven is in his hand—Bishop Hayth."

White still a student at the state u- iversity, Mr. Wooster won the Phelps- Stokes fellowship and undertook a study of the Negro life which is so a great factor in the development of the South.

From the breakup of the old or der, following the civil war, to the mortal, the book is a scientific study of the human-made economic problems most vital to Southern life and business.

C. Monareh 003 001 000 - 1 St. Louis Giants 020 001 125 - 5 Finkler Loss On Tuesday, Kaiser City Monarchs archived six hits with Finkler on the mound. "Although the only allowed six hits, had little other than his glove and in the fourth inning, Moore hit him for one of the longest home runs ever seen, the ball clearing the left-field fence by three feet. The start looked good and Finkler disposed of the opposition in one two. The fourth out did not lasting. The second round saw the Monarchs pile up four guns on the poorest excuse only one hit being made during the lining and that was off the Duke variety. Finkler started off by walking McNair. Curr next up sent an easy tap directly at the big pterer and Finner tried for the play at second but three highs were hit by a pitched ball and the bases were loaded. Finner failed to get the ball over for Rogan and four balls forced McNair in with the first run for Kansas City. Then the Monarchs got lucky and Shiming Duncan, who has not made a hit-shot, the Chicago fire, sent a wicked hopper to Monarchs and a double play the ball fouled a big ball and went out to left field and Carr and Moore scored. When Finner let Daddy, wide return to the plate get away the ball hit the stand and Rogan counted on the break. Finner then settled down and got rid of the most three batters but the damn team down. the fourth Moor's long home run in the the Moor's final five. In the house buff of the fifth, the spelling Kansas City bask and scored three runs. El Dahl, who has been cleaning the old pill barley than any man on the team for his girls, lined a double to right to wait and he drew a base on balls. Hewitt hit toward the pitcher's box, and again McNair was lucky, being right in the path of the ball and a loss to Portland forced Hatt at third. Monkie was hit by a pitched ball and the bases were full, Charleston flies and Logan was caught. He ran career. This was all for St. Louis made the mish when two more runs came over on an error by Dexterism and hit by Hewitt — and Monkie. "Kansas City put the game away in the fifth by scoring a run largely due to a poor throw by Blackwell. In the sixth eighth the game was salted when McNair hit the ball over the right field in the third. Dexterism's failure to hit the ball was largely responsible for the loss of the game as he had several opportunities to drive in runs but a victim to McNair's running. THE ST.

This was a hard fought contest both Summer and Lincoln's teams were Summer had made three runs before Lincoln began her work of destruction. When Lincoln finally got her own key, she made five runs in one inning. Lincoln's team was spurred on by the wild and enthusiastic cheering of a host of supporters, among whom was Supp. D. Walter Potts, the superintendent of the East St. Louis schools. The East side was successful in winning from Summer all the events staged at the Field day exercises. The one hundred yard dash was won by Kyle of Lincoln. Summer conti- nued in third place by running broad angles on the field as on an East St. Louis Y. M. C. A. Summer has lost but two baseball games this season, and both of these fights were at the hands of the baseball team of Lincoln School, East St. Louis, Illinois.
