ANTI-LYNCHING BILL IS NOW BEFORE THE U.S. CONGRESS
L. C. DYER OF ST. LOUIS IS PUSHING THE MEASURE
Special To The Argus
WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 0.—In these turbulent times when many perplexing questions are being discussed which affect the country, no one can be more confident than anti-immigration bill which is now before the Congress of the United States.
While there has been many suggestions offered and many substitutes submitted as a solution to the problem, yet it seems that House Bill number thirteen, known as the "Dyer Bill", comes nearer covering all the points than any other bill. At a recent hearing on Mr. Dyer's bill before the Committee on Judicial, the subject of the constitutionality of the bill was widely discussed. A point was raised during the discussion whether the bill was too broad and not specific enough to justify the who appeared before the committee, gave a deal of light on the subject, sustaining all the important points in the bill, citing numerous decisions bearing on the case by the Supreme Court. Speaking further on the subject Mr. Goff said:
The Duty of Congress
"I content this: If the State, in the mind of Congress, denies this right because all legislation assumes the existence of an evil to be corrected, then Congress, having legislatively determined that fact (and the courts will not consider whether Congress was or was not justified, but will assume because of Congress having passed appropriate legislation, that the States have denied the rights in question), obviously Congress possesses the authority under the fourth amendment and under the interpretation which the courts have given it to go forward and say that since the States of this country have denied to many people within their borders because they are not allowed to be selected in their presidents in their lives, and their liberty, and have also denied them the legal protection of the laws, a necessity exists that not only justified but compels adequate and appropriate legislation to the end that the people of our several states may enjoy and be secure in those rights which the organic law guarantees them.
My conclusion is this: Must the Congress of this country sit suprely by when it knows that a State, either affirmatively or negatively, is denying that right? If the State omits to give or withhold protection through motives of indifference or inability, is the guaranty performed and the duty of the Federal Government discharged. In a word, is the fourteenth amendment meaningless because of State negativity? I hope not, and I think not. The Congress of the United States already is charged with the constitution by the State, with the duty of seeing that the States do not neglect this right. Then, if the Congress of the United States decides that the States have, by omission, neglect, impactly, or local prejudice, if you please, failed to insure and secure to every citizen within those States the full protection of the laws, and the right to life, liberty, and property, their does not the obligation arise to protect these rights? Is it an answer to say that the individual invasion of individual right is not the subject of the amendment—
Mr. Dyer said he expected a favorable report from the committee, and thought there would be little, no opposition to the House. Copy of Anderson's bill introduced by Mr. Dyer
In the House of Representatives. April 11, 1921.
Mr. Deer introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary and ordered to be printed.

The property contains one hundred acres of land, comprising a well developed farm, a large peanut farm of many hundred trees, a space for pigs, made attractive, a useful by-pass, plains oats, poplars and magnolia. The Institution is easy of access, being connected with the city by an electric car line. A beautiful asphalt thornfare leads from the city to the school.

This conservatory has forty six pinnies and fifty claveres, the right of which is the Hall, confined or cementstone. The auditorium is a spacious hall sixty by ninety feet, with a seating capacity for fifteen hundred.

Anna G. Nilsson in "Wilhelm Luitl" will be Saturday's feature at The Ocala.
This is a pictureurization of the short story masterpiece of Calvin Johnson appeared in The Saturday Breaking News. The story will remember vividly their inscapion of Ember, the forlorn girl who came to her season only to find that at a midnight revel she had married a weakling. Before her sat an impassive old man, owner of a gambling palace, whose philosophy and way was to shape her destiny. Just then she met the primrose path is vividly set forth in the screen version.
The Sunday attraction at the Olympia will be "Snowblind". It is a vigorous, red-blooded drama from the Great Northwest country. Two couples, one a youth, the other a mother, meet in a bright giant in strength and a fugitive from justice, fall in love with a young girl lost in the woods and blinded by the snowglare. The vigor and passion of the elder's wooing with the girl's heart, but one day her sight comes back. She tells no words to her brother. The youth of the younger brother calls to her and she turns to him, arousing the murderous anger of the fugitive. She not only prevents a murder but points a way to a life worth while to the elder brother.
Neal, Hart In "Black Sheen" At
The Casino Sunday
Things begin to happen in the very first scene of "Black Sheep," which will be shown at The Casino Theatre Sunday.
Even before you are comfortably seated you will find yourself neck-deep in interest in this dynamic drama of one of the most unusual wars ever staged in this or any other country. It is a picture based upon the war between the cattlemen and the sheep-horders and it was no gentleman's war, either. No hostilities in living and before it ended many lives were lost and thousands of dollars worth of sheep and cattle were destroyed.
Neaf Hart, the star of this production, which excels any of his previous efforts both in historic and artistic effects. He is supported by an exceptionally clever cast.
Real Hart In "God's Gold" At
The Lincoln Sunday
The special feature at the Lincoln Theatre Sunday will be "God's Gold."
Neal Hart, who is somewhat unfamiliar to us without his usual Western part, acts the role of a sea-captain in this picture. He adds new laurels to his already growing reputation, by his remarkable portrayal of this new and difficult role.
Buried treasure furishes the theme of the picture, but a pretty romance intertwined with the main captain's sweetheart. It is she who proves to be God's real "gold" after many trials and adventures attending the search for the buried treasure.
Among the big scenes are: the sight of two great ships, being destroyed by fire and a thrilling storm at sea.

WAS "BABY NOBLE" AT SHRINERS GATHERING
Maceo Pinkard of Medina Temple, New York City enjoyed the unique distinction of having been the baby noble of the convention, at "St. Louis last week.
He is well below 30 years of age, first, nearer twenty, yet he is the most successful and the most song successors. The first of which "Gingham Girl" promptly brought him offers from practically every publishing house in New York.
He, with Tunel Layon, co-writer with Henry Creamer, of "Strutt, Miss Lizzle," the "Three Showers," show and "Ehony Night," a musical comedy, were initiated at the meeting of the Pinkard came along with the delegation and thus became the "Baby Noble."
His social achievements in St. Louis exceeded even his musical accomplishments.
in the next five years for the promotion of religious welfare, education and general upfit work. The great denomination should raise that amount and more. The times demand progress in religion. The pastor of Bethel is democratic and courteous. The builders and laymen, and we are sure Pittsburghers will be happy to money. Religious work in general in Pittsburgh is very progressive, and there are more than a score of substantial congregations, with many smaller missions. Pittsburgh is the home of Robert L. Vann, and it was our privilege to be his guest during the brief stay in the western metropolis of the "Keystone" state. He has a beautiful residence and an estimable wife who has made an education for ability to make hot biscuits. He can add endorsement to the excellence of them.
Attorney Vann, besides being editor-in-chief of the Pittsburgh Courier, and the Competitor magazine, is assistant City Solicitor, and is now a full fledgling lawyer. He does he do it? He is fortunate in having live wire business associates. There's Ira F. Lewis, Walter S. Buchman and W. P. Bayliss, all to the force in activity. In Pittsburgh Americans, filling a most helpful role in the life of the community, and is manned by a group of progressive leaders who leave no stone unturned to serve the people. It is a fine thing to have the people read in the great metropolitan centers and understand fortune that the cause of people is being served better and better each day by progressive newspapers.
Activity Everywhere. Pittsburgh is active everywhere. True, there are many out of work here, at present, but the spirit is not dismused. One of the active men of the city is Attorney W.-L. Strain, small business owner of a native of the city. Attorney Goreman, White, son of the last Negro Congressman that graced the halls of the American national lawmaking body; John A. Clark, a good friend of long standing, Executive Secretary of the Urban League, Attorney Handolph, and dentist, and a good group of active men are keeping the city to the fore in community effect. There must be something said about the daily newspapers of Pittsburgh, in no city of the country is there a first group of newspapers lighting against racial injustice, and especially lighting against the cultists in the Pittsburgh area other than the black community.

pers of all other cities can serve their community and the country better by not magnifying Negro crime in glaring headlines and screening streaming from page stories. Chicago, Cleveland, New York, Washington and other cities are stopping its North and South, and so must, Pittsburgh. The Cleveland Plainfield the Cleveland and the Chicago American, great and small, are not even refer to the faces of an individual matters of crime. That's getting fair play. Will Pittsburgh follow? The course of agitation is trapped with the gravest of danger to community peace and well being.
Everybody Thinking.
Everybody in Pittsburgh, as has been found in other communities visited, is thinkin', thinking—some are thinking out loud. There's nothing being "put over" on the "brother." This is especially true in the matter of business and politics. Henceforth, say all the course of progress is in cooperation with those who have preved true to the trust and confidence placed in them. "We are through all the hardships," says one; we are tired of easy jobs; and another; and we will not again be found but used as "cats paws," says all another. Yoy bear that same talk everywhere, and there must be a reason. Those who are concerned about the reason, and who will seek to rectify past wrongdoing will benefit by the unrest and disgust.
JAPAN NEWSPAPERS SILENT ON QUESTION OF CONFERENCE
Associated Negro Press
TOKIO, Japan; August 10.—As Japan's acceptance of a part in the proposed Far Eastern discussion at Washington was anticipated locally the new moves to the embassy extended comment on the dispatch the Japanese reply to the invitation, devoting themselves to the presumption of speculation as to the problems the conference will deal with. The representative leaders of Japanese life outside of official circles apparently inclined to have Japanese participation to have Japanese participation in the conference and there is no inclination among these leaders to minimize the importance of Japan's attacks to the Washington deliberations. There are indications that the international discussion by the Japanese on the vital aspect of the problems will provide unanimity of a position on the matter.

NO SIGNS OF FRICTION AT THE ANNUAL MEETING NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE
ATLANTA, Ga. August 10—There will be no war started at the annual meeting of the Negro Business League. What looked to be threatening clouds of discord and strife have melted and the skies are serene and clear. The league is not the target for the fear that either Dr. Emmett J. Scott, or Dr. Moton were at logger heads about the affairs of the League. Both these estimable men have openly defiled every rumor which has sought to blake them to situations of official disagreement regarding the conduct of the official matters of the League.
Dr. Scott writes: "I am not acquainted with the irresponsible skulking sniper who comes to the front about this time each year with anonymous letters (or articles) which he sometimes dates from 1894, at which he sometimes dates from Philadelphia, sometimes from other places, but all designed, not to uphold the league but to tear it down. By asserting motives, "suspictions, frictions, "tensions, etc., he evidently thus hopes to divide the officers and members of the organization of queues and clans. He may succeed. Necessity is but as for myself. I stand wholly upon my record for and in behalf of the League which I have now so loyalty served for 21 years. I have as Secretary sought as loyalty as I knew how to promote the best interests of the League, and to keep it in active movements. In 1949, at St. Louis, I posed a program which was unanimously endorsed by the Convention.
"I shall be at Atlanta, to view the 'fireworks' threatened by the amounsons writer. I shall be looking every man and woman at the Convention in the face. My back in fear and trembling will be turned to no man, and we all can admire the threatened fireworks they are found to be designed to reduce radioactivity, for cost confi- sification and solidarity, for ever during this troubles period is ever a race needed to stand together and work together it is ours." De Motton has been quick to deny that he is in any way connected with a statement to be allowed to say about our program.

VILLARD SCORES U. S.
FOR INTERVENING IN
HAITI AND SANTO DO
Associated Negro, Press.
WASHINGTON, D. C. August 10—
American intervention in Haiti and
Santo Domingo was described last
Wednesday as the "blackest chapter
in American History in the Carri-
beans" by Oswald G. Villard of New
York, urging a special scientific in-
vestigation. He spoke for the Union Par-
tique of Haiti, the National Asso-
ciation for the Advancement of Color-
ism, and the Haiti and Santo Domingo
depopulation Society, and charged there was no trouble in Haiti until we went there.
Immediate American withdrawal
would be a disaster, Mr. Villard told
the committee, but military occupation
should terminate.

WILL THE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACT?
Attorney General J. W. Barrett says he is ready to act in the Bowling Green lynching if one witness can be had.
We appreciate the difficulty that one may expect in trying to get anyone to identify the person or persons who actually adjusted the rope about Roy Hammond's neck. But the duty that Mr. Barrett as Attorney General of the State, is called upon to perform in connection with the lynching of Roy Hammond does not require a witness, because Sheriff Moore readily admits that he allowed a mob to take the prisoner and lynch him, without firing a shot or inflicting a physical scratch upon one member of the mob.
Now, the question is, does Mr. Barrett believe that Sheriff Moore did his duty in this case? If he believes that the sheriff did his duty, then we can understand why no proceedings were instituted against the sheriff by the Attorney General's office. But if on the other hand, Mr. Barrett does not believe, that Sheriff Moore did his duty, then the Attorney General's office should act against the sheriff of Pike County.
We admit that it is quite difficult to find the members of the mobs, but Sheriff Moore can be found any day.
Our contentions are that if Attorney General Barrett has the power to remove the sheriff of St. Louis County on a charge of neglect of duty in regard to prohibition enforcement, he surely has the power to remove the Sheriff of Pike County for neglect of duty in that he allowed a prisoner to be taken from him and lynched by a mob.
It is the duty of the Attorney General to bring proceedings against Sheriff Moore, and let the sheriff prove to the satisfaction of the Governor, that he did his duty in protecting his prisoner, without he or his deputies firing a shot.
WHERE WE ALL CAN JOIN IN.
Hon. L. C. Dyer of St. Louis has worked on his anti-lynching bill which is before Congress until it is now in pretty fair shape, and it looks as though it will pass if given the proper support. This support, does not necessarily mean those members of Congress, but it also means the support coming from the people who are at home. Your Congressmen and your Senator are human and as a rule, clothed with the same human imperfections that we are. They like the approbation, "Well done thou good and faithful servant."
Therefore, when they do the thing that you approve, you should write them and encourage them. You should let them know you are pleased.
You should also suggest to them the things you want done. They, as a rule are always ready and willing to respond to your call.
The people in this country have undergone untold suffering on account of mob violence. It is high time that the Congress of the United States should call a halt to this form of anarchy. We all can contribute our part toward bringing a change of this condition by writing a letter to the Congressman from your district and the Senator from your State and urge them to support House Bill Number 13. This bill is known as the "Dyer Bill" which has for its purposes, the making of lynching and mob violence, a Federal offense.
The Colored people of America are surely interested in such a law, because we have been the principal victims of mob violence during the past thirty years. Therefore, we above all others should show our interest in the success of the bill.
Inasmuch as such a law will be National in scope, it is the duty of citizens everywhere in America to join in the movement to call a halt to the barbaric practice which is undermining every principle of this government.
We can all join this movement by using a few minutes time and a two-cent stamp. This is as little as can be asked. Will you do less for this great cause?
NO STANDING IN COURT
The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, a corporation, has brought suit for libel against the Los Angeles Express Publishing Company demanding a total of $105,000.
No one will believe that the Klan was libeled by the paper in question, because the Ku Klux Klan has the reputation of being guilty of most every thing in the catalogue of crime. In fact, its record will show that it is an out-law organization and as such, has no standing in court.
Undoubtedly, the plaintiff in this case forget that "he who comes into court, must come with clean hands" or at least that is the presumption in law. But, the Ku Klux Klan has a bloody record. It has made itself "famous" by acts of out-lawry and murder following in its wake.
One of the absurd charges in the complaint against the Express is that, until the publication of an article in that paper, the Klan had a good reputation. We hope, should the case ever go to triff we will be called as a witness for the defendant. If so, we will swear, that the Ku Klux Klan has a bad reputation.
According to 16 of the latest reports from Arkansas, a threat is alleged to have been made by the Ku Klux Klan warning the daily papers of that State, to quit publishing news about the Klan on the penalty of death to the writer.
We think the newspapers have been quite lenient with the Klan. Most assuredly, they have failed to tell all the dirty deeds that have come to their attention. If the Klan has a good reputation, why want the newspapers to suppress it?
THE RISE OF JAPAN AS A WORLD POWER
Only a few years ago, Japan was looked upon with disdain and the Japanese referred to as "a yellow monkey." The white men received one of his first and bitterest rebuffs at the hands of this wonderful nation. Since then, Japan has forged ahead, and today she is in the race for world dominion, with bright prospects of winning the first place. The World War sounded the death knell to European dominion. It is very doubtful if Germany can ever recover her commercial supremacy. France is likely to suffer for years to come for want of money and man power. England has her hands full, to stay the onward march of democracy among her subject races. The financial center of the world has passed from the old world to the new already. The contest for world supremacy is narrowed down to just two rivals—the United States and Japan. Unreasonable and unwarranted race prejudice on the part of the United States gives Japan an decided advantage. Americans are not any too popular among the white races but among the Yellow, Brown and Black races of earth, they are feared and distrusted, and often hated. If Europe has had her day, Asia is just beginning to have resources of this great continent are underdeveloped. It
is the homeland of the most prolific and industrious peoples on earth. Japan believes that her strong arm is able to protect the fortune and guide the destiny of this mighty continent. Her army and navy are second to none; her sea power is being developed more and more; and best of all, she is respective to the growing sentiments of democracy. She stands ready to defend the equality of races. Black races would do well to cultivate the friendship of Japan. Some of our bright and promising young men should be sent yearly to Japan to complete their education.—Ex

WASHINGTON, D. C. August 10.—There is coming to the Associated Negro Press serious and solicitous inquiries from all over the United States of America. Some are pathetic, some treable and others fraught with grave wrongdoing. The senior officer of the whole spring of inquiries, we are summed up in the following chorus:
"Where Do We Go From Here."
Quotation from a typical letter is given. The letter quoted is from one of the most intelligent and progressive members of the Hare, a woman of high social and business standing, and one entirely independent of political preference, that active in political matters.
Just what is wrong with the President? If what I read in the Colored papers is true, the party seems quite sure they will never again need our vote. But I guess they think three years is a long time and by the time election time rolls around again we have forgotten all about the Lil' white effort. Well, we will see about it.
There you have it, from a northern voter, not a politician, but who probably can influence, more voters, one way and another, than some United States Senators. This is typical of the trend of thought. It shows many things. For example, it shows that the newspapers are washing the face of voters without a favor, and that the people are reading it; it shows that the old political gape of putting "sugar in the coffee" just before the election, will not have the desired effect in these wide awake times, and finally, it demonstrates that the Colored voters of the North are in no sense indifferent to the slams and fastens of party politics and policies in the South.
Senators, Congressmen, Governors
"Northern Senators, members of Congress and Governors in Northern states are urged to 'Beware the Ideas of March.' The elections of 1922 may prove a bitter disappointment to some. Where are the old fashioned politicians who claim that Colored people are not looking ahead? They are not stopping at 1922, many of them are now in the 1923 and 1924. The times have changed. The controversy, between 'King George of England, Lloyd George and Lord Northlife, are being reproduced in miniature, or life sized, as you like it, between President Harding, hisiliary the Committee of the Presidency, from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People."
Whatever may /be the attitude of President Harding, the Republican National Committee, or the group of Lincoln Johnson, Perry W. Howard and others, it is very evident, that the sailing is not smooth. It is quite plain that friends of the Administration are afraid for us, for an able man.
Look at the facts straight in the face—heaven knows it is time. One man has said: "Leaders these days cannot be dictators, they must follow the will of the masses, or lose their power." This applies to leaders of all races. "Where do we go from here?" From whence! Let us ask. What has happened of late? Is it straws that show the manner of the wind's blowing or "brick houses" to make folks take the "HINT."
1. The Repubilists met in Virginia. Hon. John T. Adams, Chairman of the Republican National Committee, was accused of misrepresenting the repubilists from uttering, except a few handpicked. There was no protest from Mr. Adams.
2. There was a meeting of "Republicans" in Georgia, at Atlanta. Republican National Secretary Clarence B. Miller was present and presided. He is reported by persons present as the chairman of the South must be controlled by whites. Colored citizens making up ninety per cent of the party organization in Georgia, were given only twenty per cent representation on committees.
3. Congressional leadership under Congressman Mondell. Republican, has favored a flagrant attack on the "uneducated citizens." On more than one occasion Congressman Mondell has bitterly fought activities led by Congressman Tinkham, to expose disfranchisement. The Anti-Lyophying bills have been sidetracked again and again. It Congressman Mondell and another group of bills are so hold in public, what do you imagine they say and do in private?
4. Senatorial leadership, under Senator Lodge, while not obstructive, has been passive. To date, there has been no outstanding senatorial action that is calculated to inspire and cheer Colored American citizens. There have been a number of bills introduced, including the establishment of Henry Lincoln Johnson as Recorder of Deeds.
5. Racial leadership is embarrassed, handicapped and discounted. The Administration and the majority of the Colored public have, on things political, accepted the leadership of Robert R. Church, Henry Lincoln, John C. Calhoun, and William W. Howard, William C. Matthew, Walter L. Cohen, and others in their group. And yet, these men have been unable to measure up to expectations, because they have not been able to get enthusiastic backing by the, Administration forces, for the things that bring confidence to the people. They are putting up a brave front, and abiding by the Constitution, heartened and disgusted, and there is a "division of the house" as whether to pity or blame them. But, "they are more to be pitted than censured."
The result of this unprecedented political situation has been the capture of the most startling developments in the history of the United States. These developments will be related by the Associated Negro Press in a future article.
By William Pickens
The Associated Negro Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—With reference to the reported statement of President Harding to a committee of Colored citizens, Dean William Pickens in a statement for the Associated Negro Press says:
"I am not going to appoint any colored men to offer in the southern states. This thing called 'race prejudice' you cannot down by battling it and the only solution, as I see if, of colored men allied on the President to fall into the trunks behind white leadership," etc.
"What question? A committee of colored men allied on the President of the United States, and one member of the committee reports that he said exactly these things, and so far no other member of the committee has denied that the President said so."
"But there is one man alive who knows whether the President of the United States said these things, and that man is Warren Gammel-Hisling. He is the man we want to hear from. We will wait before we believe that words so object could fall from the lips of a man who had brains enough to become the chief executive of this great nation. $^2$ Then secretary to the President denies these were the exact words he said. $^3$ The secretary should deny for the President what the President may not deny for himself. Not to deny words so full of hopelessness and cowardice, would be almost to acknowledge them.
"You cannot down 'race prejudice' by 'batting it', but perhaps you can down it by falling into the ranks." What a new gospel on earth? "It this be the cure for race prejudice, it is likewise the cure for all other sin and evil, do not fight against them 'sold to them'. The world of men have helped for untold generations against downed 'murder', but have 'they not discouraged and lessened it'. Would there not be more murder if there had been so battle against those who wanted to murder?"
"Nobody with brains in his head ever claimed that there would never be another lancing if colored and white people who oppose it. fight against it. More lancing if they do not fight against it. Nobody dreams that not another Negro would be unintently disfranchised if Congress should enforce the Foul Treaty amendment, but pretty body know that there will be just fraternship there, and more if it be not enforced. Nobody even hopes that there will be no more nobody when legislation passes a bill against racism, but everybody admits that there will be loss of it.
most abject advice ever given to American Negroes? If he said it, it may do one good thing; Make colored Americans more self-repellant; and less Americanized. This word, if from the President, must be placed beside that objection from Judge Tancy in the Dred Scott Decision.
Associated Negro Press.
RICHMOND, Va. August 10—That
would have been carefully each candidate's record and vote accordingly was the judgment expressed by Mrs. Ora B. Stokes at the recent Lexington meeting of the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs she said, encouraged, reforms are not accomplished in a day or a single year. Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw and others died before their dreams of equal suffrage came true. Women everywhere are awakening—good Greenland's key mountains, from indies coral strands, from the tropics, from Australia, women everywhere are becoming arised; shall we be behind? Pay your poll tax study your city, country, state and national government; study each candidate's record, planks and platform, then, like women, vote for the best man and the best woman, whether the party is Democrat or Republican.
"These are some of the problems that face us." Enforcement of child-welfare laws; care of the feeble mind; abolition of jails and establishment of prison farms better health laws; and police regulation of dance balls.
"Let our vote he cast always with the one sublime purpose of making all agencies, whether political, social or political, contribute their quota to the realization of our shared world which has been made better by our having lived in it."

Commander, read his annual message,
There was much in the address to show
that he is not only a worker himself,
but his ability to lead others.
Expressions of regrets were sent
St. George W. Lewis, past right enlistee
and a former officer at St. Louis, who could not attend the Grand Commandery, because of
injuries he sustained filling from a horse while in a Shirine Parade at St. Louis, several weeks ago.
A beautiful past grand commander's jewel was given to Jose H. Sherwool,
in accepting the Jewel Sherwool-expressed hope that he would not do anything whereby his fraters would regret to see him wear the jewel. The Knights Templar, as said the Royal Arch Knight, would assist through George L. Vaughn, attorney, in the liberation of poor colorized boys, who are serving sententiary sentences at Jefferson City.
All officers of the grand Commandier, except A. D. Butler, grand recorder, of St. Joseph, Mo. were reclected by the Governor for the nomination. The contest for Enforcement Recorder was then entered by Legile B. Taylor of St. Louis and L. H. Farris of Springfield, Mo. the latter being the choice. "The tellers reported the result of the trial," he said. R. E. G. Gelf. Sir William Beard.

Grand Lodge Service
The work of the Grand Lodge was quite interesting throughout the session. Many important matters claimed their attention.
The annual address by Grand Master Crittened E. Clark was a masterpiece that the Lodge ordered in the institution which had put the order on a sound financial basis.
On Thursday afternoon officers were elected.
Up to a late hour, however, only Grand Master Crittened E. Clark had been elected. Most of the other officers are dead.
Delegate Dies Suddenly.
In the midst of the afternoon session, Dr. E. M. Phoenix of Indianapolis, a delegate, died suddenly.

HISTORY OF HEBRON MISSION
ARY BAPTIST CHURCH
Like unto the conception of an infant, the Hebron Missionary Baptist Church was conceived or begun in the home of one of its founders who is as well an ardent and most enthusiastic follower.
Founded February, 23, 1921.
It came into existence through the faithful prayers, and nurturing efforts of Reverend and Mrs. Frank Berry and Mrs. Winkle Crawford. (Mother Crawford), being founded in a necked location, God through His all seeing eye, looking down from the portals of Glory, capped a portion of His vineyard growing up in weeds; the young grapes being destroyed by foxes; fruits decaying on trees; with His ear listening car caught the sounds of lambs crying. It was then, He sent out an urgent call, "Who will be a volunteer to carry out one of my vignettes—who will be cardlakers of my lambs? An unison three voices co-operated and sounded back the answer, "Lord, here are we send us."
This described vineyard described of all care wan this self-same spot down in Mount St. Lucie, Florida we have a beautiful vineyard with beautiful gardens and its own charm the summer day. For the Good Shepherd of old, the pastor whose work of finding and nurturing the vineyard is the best.
strayed sheep, did not commise his search to blide his eye; but scouted byways, river banks, alleys, wherever a sheep or lamb was unable to return by his aid, he carried the doctrine to them.
The work of these good people since they have been conducting services here has been nothing short of success.
His progress of this church since the time its doors were first opened as a mission has gone on with such uniform strides that today, she stands forth as a duly organized House of Worship—no longer Hebron Mission, but henceforth and forever will be known as "Hebron Missionary Baptist Church."
Such is the history of the past and present of this House of God and let us co-operate in our prayers and labor to have her name blazoned boldly on the pages of church history in the town.
Let us hope to see her tower standing up as a modern gint against the blue skies of heaven as a monument to her founders—Rev. F. P. Berry and wife.

SOLID SOUTH IS ON THE VERGE OF DISINTEGRATION
(Special Staff Correspondence)
By the Associated Negro Press
RATON ROCHI, La. August 10.
The North, at bottom, has little or no sympathy with the "color problem" of the South. Whatever show of interest is shown north of the Ohio River in the social situations south of that historic stream is bound up in business—business, nothing but business, business—lukewarmness of the Republican Party managers toward the colored and of the organization.
It is generally connected that in the application of the philosophy of law and statutes that the South has the unquestionable edge on the North. But in the processes of business—business is the talisman of modern life—the South has an edge on the yond measure. The colored man-and-brother is in the business way of the North, therefore it becomes necessary, in the extreme, to get him out of the way. Lincoln be dangled and Sumner be soft scrambled, it's the money that dies in the topmost reaches of the mind. The South has an edge on the yond thing in the way of getting it shall be removed no matter what the sentimental cost.
President Harding must of necessarily be included in this acute trend of public politeys. Business elected him. It may *true* that the undisputed resentment of the "great middle classes" toward the Wilson bumphiness may have materially added to the super-healthy majorities that were piled up in the several sections of the city, and that the electorate still remains the fact that business nominated and elected Warren Gamaliel Harding, President of these United States. And Warren Gamaliel Harding is human.
This brings us to the consideration of the "chief sign" of the political times. An analysis of the votes of the House upon the Fordney Tariff law justifies the belief of political objectors that the tariff is the torque of disintegration. In fact the record shows, the processes of dissolution have already started.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC
—Early Adventures in Asia Minor.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
—Examples of God's Missionary Method.
1. Paul and Bernahas Preaching at Iceland (vv. 17).
As to their work in Iconium observe:
1. Their manner of preaching. This is suggested by the little word "so" in verse 1. They "so" make that a great multitude believed. They were true preachers. Only that which brings conviction of sin and induces decision for Christ can be truly said to be preaching in the biblical sense. The same is true of the Sunday school teacher. Let every Sunday school teacher at all times have as his supremum to bear the gospel of Christ so as to induce decision for Christ.
2. Their attitude toward opposition. This is suggested by the word "therefore" in verse 3. "Long time therefore they tarried." The opposition did not prevent their preaching, but instead them to continue preaching. Christian workers should learn not to give up work because of opposition.
3. The Lord accompanied their preaching with miracles (v. 3). Since the opposition was so fierce, special help of the Lord was needed.
4. The effect of their preaching (v. 4). The multitude of the city was divided. Where men faithfully preach the gospel, there will be division.
11. Attempt to Worship Paul and Barnabas as Gods (v. 8-13).
1. The occasion (vv. 8-10)—the healing of the lame man. God's gracious power exhibited in healing this lame man occasioned a new difficulty. That which ought to have been a help was turned into a hindrance. The man was a confined cripple. He had never walked. He heard Paul's preaching, which caused faith, to be born in his heart (Rom. 10:17). When Paul perceived that he trusted Christ, he called with a loud voice that all could hear for the man to stand upright. The cure was instant, for he leaped up and walked (v. 10). There was no magnetic touch, no treatment, only the command, and the naturally impossible because the possible and the real.
2. The method (vv. 11-13). They called Barnabas Jupiter and Paul Mercury, because he was the chief speaker. The priest of Jupiter brought oxen and garlands ready to offer sacrifices unto them (v. 11). If they had only known, in the person of Jesus Christ God had actually appeared to men (John 1:14; Phil. 2:7, 8).
3. Their efforts frustrated (vv. 14-18). This foolish act was happily averted by the act of the apostles, as exhibited in the address of the occasion. (1) They deny that they are divine beings and declare that to worship belongs with like passion to themselves in criminal. (2) They direct them to turn away from these vain things unto the living God who made heaven and earth and has ever left witness of Himself in that He has always done good, giving rain and fruitful seasons, filling their hearts with gladness.
Wicked Jews from Anticho and囚窘 pursued Paul with rebellious hate to this place, where they stirred up the very people who were willing to worship them a little while ago. This shows that satanic worship can soon be turned into satanic hate. This hatred took form in stoning Paul and dragging him out of the city for dead. God raised him up, and with undoubted courage he pressed on with his duties as a missionary bearing the good tidings to the lost.
Soon after this Paul turned back and revived the places where he had preached, telling them that through great tribulation they must enter into the kingdom of God.
IV. The Organization of Churches in the Field (vv. 25-28).
Evangelization with Paul did not mean a hasty and superficial preaching of the gospel but the establishment of a permanent work. Elders were appointed in every church. The work of the missionary is not done until there are established on the field self-governing and self-propagating churches.
What Is Man? What is man that those shouldst magnify him? and that those shouldst set those heart upon him? and that those shouldst visit him every morning, and try him every moment!—Jon 7:17, 18.
The Dwelling Pines of the Lord. Then said Solomon, the Lord hath said that he would well in the thick darkness. But I have built, an house of habitation for them, and a place for the dwelling former—II Chronicles 711, 2.

Kansas City Monarchs Are Hard To Stop, While The St. Louis Giants Appear Just As Formidable
CHICAGO, Aug 10 - With all the big athletic events of the season about run off and the status of the participants,竿 settled, the baseball game can get right down to the real interest that centers in the outcome of the Negro National League Baseball race. The race is still a wide open affair, with all the players competing for a grand chance to cop the league bounty, provided any one of them has enough belt to wage a good light down the stretch after stock is taken over the gift they are now absorbing, and unobtrutely will be compelled to consume from now on. At this writing the Foster club is in the midst of a round of the ladder with Kansas City but a few inches below and ready to ascend should the Foster grip on first since relaption of an inch.
K. C'S Winning Streak
The Kay Stoss have just engineered a most successful campaign of conquest on the home lot, winning ten straights with the Chicago Giants going back in immediately thereafter, which lock the hold on first place. Or put the Kansas City crew in undisputed bids fair to a run that should grant possession. At any rate, some real hard work is in store for all, if they would retain their present status in the crop.
Following the home game between the Culbans and American Giants comes a string of exhibition games between the Foster club and the strong Mid-West deluge in which the Culbans will also take a part, the same being two light encounters. Then comes the formidable St. Louis Giants to make a strong play against Kansas City hits the road, and like the Detroit Stars, may take a sudden drag. Right now, Kansas City has played 32 games on the road and 31 at home. Of the home games they have put 4-1 on the road they have been on the short end of 17. The American Giants and St. Louis have won and lost the same number on foreign soil. Both have won 7 and lost 10. To say the point is no doubt 32 and 36 but percentage 673. St. Louis is in third position having played 32 won 32 and lost 20 percentage 615.
Three Lesse: Hart
A little advanced calculation accompanied with an inward effort on the part of St. Louis would have combined an uncreating alarm all over the circuit. Had St. Louis been able to have diverted three of their losses of the games, so far pursued into wins, the standing of the American Giants and St. Louis would have been as follows:
G. W. 1, 49
American Giants ..... 19 37 16 67
St. Louis Giants ..... 52 35 17 67
With St. Louis resting in third place, and the K. C. Packing right at the heels of the Foster crew it looks like a real permanent face, with the stage all set for sudden and unexpected changes overnight.
