KU KLUX KLAN UNDER FEDERAL INVESTIGATION Asst. District Attorney At Chicago Says, "Will Blow Lid Off If I Find Anything Wrong." GRAND JURY ACTION IS FORCAST BY OFFICIAL President American Bar Association, In Convention At Cincinnati, Denounces K. K. As A Lapse Toward Barbarism. CHIUAGO, 14, Aug. 31—Federal investigation of the Ku-Kux Klan myristian that "invisible empire" said to have spring quickly from nothing to $80,000 members—has been started in Chicago by Acting United States Attorney John V. Chianin. Impetus to the inquiry has been given by numerous complaints which have been calling to Col. Chianin's office for the last three weeks. The investigation is approaching to Col. Chianin, will be based upon these allegations: That the Ku Klux Klan "absolute monarchy" opposed to public policy. That it collects by "voluntary contributions" $10 yearly from each member, with apparently no accounting rendered of the money so received. That, in addition, it charges each member $4.50 for regalia that actually costs less than $2 and that the acceptance of this money automatically defines its status as that of a corporation operating for profit. That numerous "lawless" acts have been ascribed to protesting in the public against Ku Klux Klan. That is the reason why the police arrest them more frequently—appended these acts. Receives Numerous Complaints "I have received complaints not only locally but from many parts of the country for many days about the Klan" Col. Clinton said. "I am going to investigate the whole order. My first move has been to procure a copy of the charter under which the organization does not participate, which have been furnished by by persons not members. "I do not know whether there has been any illegality, though I have numerous allegations so that effect. I don't wish, as yet, to custody reflection upon the organization or its leadership, but if I find anything wrong, I will tell the off. I will much talk about the Klan-Klux-Klan but, little action. When I finish I will find if things are not as they should be and in that case I will waste no time in laying the whole matter before the federal grand jury here and asking indictments." "Do you plan to question Col. William Joseph Simmons, acknowledged head of the Klan?" Col. Clinton was. "That depends on the results of the next few days of inquiry," he said. Bar President Condemns Concedently with Col. Clinton's announcement came a cautile comment on the organization from the president of the American Bar association, which is meeting in Chicago. Hamilton L. Carson of Philadelphia president of the bar association was speaking of law enforcement. He leaders denied that their purported was extra-legal or illegal enforcement of laws. "Society is now in a state of agitation," Mr. Carrson said, "and a firm administration of the law is needed to meet conditions of criminal violence. But a judge must give every man a fair chance. There must be orderly procedure. A harsh trial on the part of a mob is a lapse toward barbarism. Means More Violence "Efforts on the part of Kn-Kurx, or other like organizations to enforce the law or their code of morals only means more excitement, more violence, and such efforts have no place in the administration of justice in the United States." "The city police and like organization, created by law enforcement, such as the militias of various states, should take immediate cognizance of the brutal acts attributed to the Ku-Klux or other night riding bodies. "The Ku-Klux mode of procedure violates all principles of a fair trial of justice by the use of a special jury, the Ku-Klux administration does not recognize even the right of a man to a fair trial. The remarked failure of courts to expedite the trying of cases has given rise to this dangerous organization." Dismissed by Judge Judge Pose, Michigan, Satanah Ga., a right-handed jurist, who embarked on his commission of the nationals of the Klux, "I am now aware of the law and am committed to The St. Louis Argus LOUISVILLE MAYOR DECLARES KU KLUX KLAN IS MENACE Says, "I Shall Use Every Lawful Means To Prevent And Suppress Its Growth In Our Community. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 27, (Louis News) Mayor George Websinger Smith cheered the hearts of Colored Louisville Monday when he came out in a hat-footed statement denouncing Ku-Kluxism and declaring it could not get a foothold in Louisville, if he could prevent it. He said of which is remarkably clear and clean cut, follows: "For several months past there have been rumors of attempts to organize a branch of the order known as the Knights of the Ku-Klux-Klan in Louisville. These efforts have been discontraged by officials and private cell phone companies, and have recently appeared in Louisville newspapers an announcing the proposed organization of such a branch. "From newspaper accounts of the workings of this order in Southern cities recently convinced that such an organization would be a message to the peace and good understanding between the people of Louisville. The alleged purpose is to back up law enforcement; the ideal purpose is to arouse objection and resistance. It is promoted by puff organizers and is not a patriotic organization: "The order advertises for 100 percent Americans, but in its actual workings it violates the principles of Constitutional government by taking into its own hands the powers of courts and executives. In the disguise of a law superior it counterattains crimes as horrible as it seeks to punish. We are not the law superiors; we are not the authorities; we are not the agents of law enforcement—peace officers and the courts, and do not need the doubtful assistance of an order, the very name of which recalls bitterness and bloodshed. "The Colored people of Louisville are in the main, law-abiding citizens. They have been quick to condemn even those of their own race who have not witnessed the police officers they have assisted the police in apprehending offenders and, have helped in their prosecution. Negroes who violate the law just as white men do so, can be controlled by the police officers, as always has been done in Louisville, without clash or race prejudice. "Because I believe this organization to be a menace, I shall use every lawful means to prevent and suppress its growth in our community; as long as the police will be no KluK Klun in Louisville. "GEO. WEISSINGER SMITH. Mayor." TRENTON MAYOR WILL SUPPRESS THE K. K. K.

J., patring against the organization of a branch of the Ku-Klux-Klan in this city." In reply to your letter, I wish to advise your committee that as long as I remain Mayer of the City of Trenton I will take every possible action to prevent the murpation of any citizen's rights and privileges, regardless of their background, and to use all my official power to thwart the progress of any organization designed to upset the friendly relations that exist in Trenton between our white and colored citizens. Thus strongly against the promotion of any agency that may threaten our community and your committee may rely upon my active support at all times to prevent the fomenting of such a condition in Trenton. This is my position and if you care to give this letter to the public press you are at liberty to do so. Very truly yours, FREDERICK W. DONNELLY, Mayor.

PEACE IS DECLARED IMPOSSIBLE UNTIL COLOR LINE PASSES Armament Agreement Only A Serap Of Paper without Race Equality, Assets Dr. O'Brien, Dean Of Tah- dega Seminary, St. Paul is Quoted On Welding Success. (From The St. Louis Times) "The Christian who prays," Thy Kingdom Come" and refuses to worship side by side with men of other races or color is a hypherite, and the decision that will be reached by the Arm- ament conference in Washington this week will be made on paper if all motions and races are not placed on the gong level. This settlement was made by the Rev. Dr. James P. O'Brien, dean of Tah- dega Theological Seminary, Tahdiga Ala., in a session in Olive Branch Congregational Church, Silney street and Missouri avenue. Dr. O'Brien took his text from the Twelfth Chapter of Corinthians, in which Saint Paul deserves the wel- taking together of the church from among mothers on earth, for the earth into body having many parts, differing in character, talent, speech, customs etc., all needing one another for the establishment of the Kingdom of God upon earth. "In the sight of God," Dr. O'Brien said, "there is neither male nor female, neither master nor servant, neither white nor black, nor yellow. Germans, French English, Japanese all are sinners, revered by the blood of Christ, who become children of God by faith or are rejected on account of them. "The Kingdom of God will not come in our hearts or be established upon earth unless we bail all men as brothers." The United States and the Great Powers and the smaller nations of Europe may agree to reduce their armies, navies and armaments, but it will all be of no avail. If the black and yellow races and the oppressed little countries, such as Ireland, are not placed on earth, "The will be no real peace, and the Kingdom of God cannot come on earth unless this is done, and until we realize that every nation on earth prays to the same God."

The Washington Park people have absolutely denied that any such things took place.

FRANCES ORPHANS SUNDAY WILL BE ANNUAL VISITING DAY TO THE ST. FRANCES ORPHANS A Square Deal For Every Man PRICE 5 CENTS IS DISMISSED BECAUSE OF INTERRACIAL ACTIVITIES Col. Robert T. Kerlin, Is Deprived Of Professorship In Virginia Military Institute Because He Asked For Justice For Elaine Men Condemned To Death. By Fredrick G. Detwiler Associated Negro Press CHIAGO, Hl. Aug. 31.—Colonel Robert T. Kertlin, who wrote to the Governor of Arkansas an open letter published in the New York Nation in which he asked for justice for the Elaine men condemned to death, has been summarily dismissed from his professorship by the board of Virginia Military Institute of Lexington. A. Col. Kertlin who is Doctor of Law from Elaine, from Elaine, for some time, Professor of English at the above institution. He is known to colored people as the author of The Voice of the Negro, a work setting forth the appeal to the nation made by the Negro Press; and also a member of the interracial Committee of the State of Virginia. For several years, he has given himself the cause of racial justice, and there is of course among the white people who has done with inner idealism or truer spirit of democracy. On June 15, of this year the National printed over Col. Kertlin's name an open letter to Governor McRea, pleading the cause of the condemned men in connection with the so-called "insurrection" near Hoop Sump, Arkansas. The facts of the facial trin of scores of Negroes "without regard, without witnessness, are arrested and made to Magna Carta, the American Constitution, and the Bible itself." In the letter Professor Kerlin wrote to the Governor of Arkansas, he stated that the Negro farmers of Arkansas were the victims of pessage; that they had neither instigated nor begun the riots as was shown in the trial before the Arkansas Supreme Court; that they had armed, themselves only after being threatened and molested; and that they tortured by whipping and an electrical chair during their trials to make them testify as the white landlords wanted them to do. "The time will yet come," said Professor Kerlin, "when the world with full knowledge of this will be rebuilt by such Congo barbarity." The Board of the Virginia Military Institute, a school that receives part of its support from the government, demanded Professor Kerlin's resignation in a meeting held August 20 at Richmond. On his refusal to resign the board automatically dis "It is the opinion of the Board that Colonel Kerim, by reason of his interposition in the "Elaine, Insurrection" cases as exemplified by his letter to the Governor of Arkansas reflecting upon the administration of Justice in that State, and those upon opposing the laws therein, vin which connection the Board has considered his general activities in interracial matters, has rendered his further connection with the Virginia Military Institute undesirable, and his retention in the professorship instead of promoting the beneficial ends of the Institute was established would prove harmful and detrimental thereto, and embarrassing to those responsible for its conduct and management and prejudicial to the interests which it is their duty to guard and protect." It is understood that Professor Kerim was very popular with the cadet body at V. M. L. and many will regret his dismissal. He has been instructor English at V. M. L. since 1804. He was a graduate of 1804. A. M. from Central College, Missouri and also studied at Johns Hopkins University, University of Chicago, Harvard University and Ph. D. From Yale 06. He served as a Methodist minister from 1856 to 1888 and was a chaplain in the Third Regiment. Missouri Volunteers in the Spanish-American War. He is the author of "Mainly for Myself," "Camp Life of the Third Regiment," and "The War of the Negro" and several other books and is also secretary of the Virginia Society for the Advancement of Education. Professor Kerlin will not be without friends in this experience who will stand by him to the last ditch. It is for Virginia we are 'sorry, for it is hard to see such things happen in a state rich in American tradition. Why should Virginia soil her soul by excusing the crime of Arkansas? The dismissal of Prof. Robert T. Kerlin, from the faculty of the Virginia military institute, of the United States, that all are given justice, should accuse the entire race to action. Prof. Kerlin was first introduced to the Colonial people of America through the Associated Negro Press, and he was so politically interested in the programs and development of the Race through education that he took on our mission. Then Walter was sent to the University.

St. Louis' Leading Photo Play Theatre BLACKED FACE COMEDIENNES FEATURE THIS WEEK'S SHOW AT BOOKER WASHINGTON Comediennes with blacked faces are a rare at The Booker Washington Theatre. Two of the four acts on the current vaudeville bill at that theatre, however, are featuring such. Grice and Coleman open the show. Both the male and female work under cork, and the anties of the fair sex is the life of the act. Both are loaded with comics but the eccentric singing and dancing of the woman is especially a hit. Barney and Tolliver in "The Chink and the Maid" are entertaining. The act centers on squabbles over a laundry bill which is full of humor. Their good singing voices win applause and their final duetty, "Rose, of Old Virginia", is a harmonious trent. Baker and Baker, a tenor and soprano, have a variety act which begins with witty remarks incidental to the closing off, a theatrical engagement, travels through songs and piano stands and ends in a Hawaiian duet and dance accompanied by native instruments. The act has class White and Bradfrd close the show. The female in this team also works under cork and keeps the audience creaming. She's some 'Goon Song Shouter' and sets the house wild with her Blues. The sample are in a constant squabble, in which the man apparently gets the worst of the tracer until he gets "out of the bapel" then its. 'Baby Won't You Please Come Home' put over in a humorously descriptive manner. The act goes big WATTS & WILLIES NEXT Watts and Wilts and a big company of musical comedy performers will open a week's engagement at The Booker Washington Theatre Monday night. This company has enjoyed a big run throughout the current regard of the general slump, and is said to be an extraordinary attraction.

AT THE MOVIES "Bucking The Tiger": "Uncharted Seas" and "Journey's End" At Star Theatre Alice Lake in Uncharted Seas will be featured at The Star Theatre this Saturday. It is enthralling because of its unusual plot and the method of working out the situations is consumate. Briefly the story deals with Lucretia Eastman whose husband is a moral detestant addicted to opium and loose women. Lucretia's cup of disgust brings over all but Tom's father entreats her to give him one last chance. The test is the finding of deceased steam ship, handed with ten millions of Klondike gold. Tom is given a seaworthy craft and a rotting vessel manned with desperateoes is founted on Frank Underwood who loves Loretta and is loved by her. The cowardice of the one and the courage of the other as they go through Behring Strait leads to the heart watching Olivia. Conway Tewari will be presented Sunday in Bucking Tiger It is a story of the end of the Klondike gold rush and the 'black sheep' of a weathery family who was among the derelict left behind.

Hugo, Ballin's production. "The Journey's End" will be the special feature on next Thursday. It is the story of a woman bound by Fate was a laborer rough rugged uncoutrie.

One of his first official acts, evidencing his deep interest in colored ex-service men, was to appoint Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, a loyal and active Negro Republic of St. Joseph, Missouri, as a "Special Expert" in said Bureau. Dr. Crossland, whose only son, during the recent war, was made the chief of staff, will govern the affairs of the interests of colored soldiers and sailors and see that they are given all the rights, opportunities and benefits to which they are entitled under existing laws. With a force of colored clerks, stenographers, etc., he will have headquarters in the main reefs.

His selection for this important post was advocated and endorsed by the entire Missouri delegation in Congress, including Hon. Charles L. Faset of the 4th Congressional district governor Benedict Johnson, who will be the behalf. The position carried with it is the best salaries yet given to any colored federal appointee. Dr. J. R. A. Crossland is currently fitted for this position for a number of reasons: (1) He gave his only beloved son during the recent World War as a pioneer triumph to the allure of attraction, which makes him virtually interested in the allure of all men. (2) He knows he has been an excellent teacher, personally and professionally.

I am deeply gratified because of my appointment—not so much because of the personal recognition involved, but mainly because it shows that the President and Col. Charles R.

Aug. 31.—For the seventh time in less than two years, on last Thursday night, the $30,000 dwelling in the Englewood residential district, owned by Jessie Binga, the Negro banker, was bombed. Two men in a large automobile were seen to speed North. A woman's voice eroded: "Look out!" and then the rear of the building of the front porch were blown out of place and scares of window panes in the neighborhood were shattered. Binga and his family were out of the city and the only one in the house was a maid who locked herself in and refused to open the door. The last time the home was bombed was last February, explosives had been hurled at the building, than five times in six months. "Employees of a number of white persons against Binga because he had sold property in "white" districts to Colored persons is thought to be responsible for the bombings.

See That Your Advertisement Appears In This Paper How Urban League of Provident Association Came Into Existence Class In Sewing at Simmons Neighborhood Center Class In Millinery At Waring/Neighborhood Center PART TWO How Urba The beginning of the Urban league goes back to the work of the Committee on Social Service among the Colored people, who decided in 1842 that a thorough investigation of the local situation was the first step in outlining a constructive program of race reelection attempts, and in their part appealed to the School of Social Economy which applauded Wm. A. Crossland, then a fellow in that institution, to make the study. So acceptable was Crossland's work and so genuinely sincerely were the colored people in promoting their industrial interests, that by 1915 through Mr. Roger N. Baldwin, then a professor of Sociology at Washington University, he made the Committee on Social Services affiliate with the National Urban League whose program especially fitted the needs of the urban-colored people. Accordingly, in the spring of 1918 when the shortage of labor was at its peak, the committee decided to broaden the scope of its work and render more efficient service to the community. An executive secretary was employed and the name of the committee on Social Service was changed to the Social Service Provident Association. The work was divided into three departments—the Industrial, the Neighborhood and the Educational. Industrial Department Since the establishment of the Urban League more than 20,000 people have come to the building in search of employment, information, and advice. During 1920 thirteen new business firms were induced to use members of our Race for the first time. Over 1920, the Industrial Department regularly use the Industrial Department selected help and in 10 different establishment serious trouble has been prevented through our Industrial Secretary. During the war period, when the newcomers from the South were unaccustomed to city life and did not understand the hard work of a honest day's work of paramount importance, Welfare workers were placed in many of the industrial plants using a large percentage of Negro labor. The league placed two such workers with firms here. The League has also placed more than 100 people among whom were the first to work in the leather industry in St. Louis. During 1918-20 plant meetings were conducted in many of the large plants at which talks on efficiency, thrift, and other practical subjects were emphasized. The League has held more than 100 such meetings. Since the depression the Employment Secretary regularly gives office talks to the borderes who come in search of jobs. That these morale talks are helpful, is evidenced by, such expressions as, I will spend my money more carefully, I will need the next time I have a job I will try to be more neat." "Look at my bank account since you made the talk," etc. The League aims not only to place a man or woman on the job, but also to help him or her make good. The follow-up work is regarded of utmost importance as the sum total of every man's work determines the estimate of the race. Neighbourhood and Recreational Department To improve the general conditions among those living in the congested districts many of whom came during the war period, the League established the Neighborhood Department for recreation through the use of four public school buildings, 67 teachers and others volunteered their services Clam In Sewing at Simmo WOMEN'S NATL REPUB. CONVENTION A SUCCESS Proclamation Colored Political Workers Attend First National Gathering KANSAS CITY, Mo. Aug. 27, (The Kansas City Sun)—The first session of the Negro Women's National Republican League met in Kansas City, the 27 and held its sessions at the St. Louis Convention 910 Harrison street. A large delegation of women were present among whom were: Mrs. Momen L. Grags of Washington, D. C., Miss Halie Q. Brown of Wilberforce, O. D., Mary P. Waring of Chicago; Mrs. Ida P. L. Indiana; Mrs. L. Walker of St. Louis; Mrs. Malea Malea Fallings of Denver Colo.; Mrs. H. L. Prince of St. Joseph, Mo. A number of men were seen scattered through out the reception and many have Noonday Meeting at a Large Plant in directing the activities in the four seasons. In addition to wholesome games for children and adults, classes were formed in basketry, needle work, milinery, bending, crocheting and plain sewing. Over 1,000 articles were made first school session alone, and more than 800 people attended the various classes. Adults who had never played since childhood joined the several recreational classes and were taught a tough, vigorous vicar. More than 5,000 have attended entertainment and exercise promoted by tits' department. The League Makes Possible First Grade Manual At the close of the first year of this department 150 children and adults had been enrolled in the two public school centers. So enthusiastic had they become that the parents requested the League to continue the work in the summer. Through the cooperation of the University library of the Urban League and the Neighborhood partment was able to establish the first Grade Manual. So successful was the project that upon the assistant request of the League throughout the year the Board of Education decided to establish a grade manual in the L'Overture School on the same ground as that for the whites. This department has been called up from time to time to give advice to mothers, regarding many problems affecting the guidance of their children. Closely connected with the classes in the schools are the neighborhood clubs organized for the purpose of meeting the needs of a particular neighborhood. In such groups the main purpose is to stimulate interest in prenatal and post-natal care of mothers, the making over of old clothes, and many other practical everyday toques are discussed. A genuinely wholesome neighborhood atmosphere, is thus created and many valuable contacts hereof missing are made. The Dental Clinic Department The Dental Clinic which is accessible to 11,000 school children has served more than 5,000 since the Laguna took it over and the commercial value of the work is estimated at more than $6,000. School children from all of the colored schools in the city are sent to this clinic. After final preparation for their parents, in this way the gospel of clean teeth and good health is carried back to the home. Last year in an effort to have the company more efficient in providing for the maintenance of the ons Neighborhood Center of welcome was delivered by Hone- Henry M. Beardsley, ex-Maxor, of Kansas City, Mo. His remarks were very encouraging to women and at the close of his address, presented the League with a check for $100.00 as evidence of his faith in their ex- istence. The response to Mr. Beards- ley's remarks was that he had brief talks were made by Miss Haila Q. Brown of Ohio; Prof. J. Silas Harris; Mrs. Iris Listen of Indiana; Dr. E. C. Bunch, Rev. J. W. Hurse, Prof. J. H. Lee, Attorney L. A. Knox, Mr. G. A. Page, Mr. Nelson C. Crews of Kansas City, Mo. On Tuesday, Mrs. L. Austin of Kana- sia city, spoke on "The relation of School, Church and the Lodge", and to say that she "woke up" is ex- pressing her mildly. General dis- cussion among subjects is in which a number of the women partic- ated. On Wednesday a尊敬的 address was delivered by Mrs. M. Warne 1950 clinic a penny campaign was carried on in the public schools in which more than 15,000 children, parents, and teachers cooperated. New apparatus edited at more than $200 has been in use, and the equipment and better service to the children. Educational Department The first accomplishment of the Educational department was the promotion of a beginners' class in Social Service. In this undertaking the League had the hearty cooperation of the Board of Education and the work praised a class. Thirty-four enrolled and the class class attendance of twenty. The class was carried on again this year with success. This department aims to keep the public informed on the general activities of the League and the community needs through publicity in the columns of newspapers and magazines. In this section on the work of the League has received attention in The St. Louis Argus, St. Louis Charion, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, St. Louis Globe Democrat, Chicago Deferer, Crisis, Competitor, and many other newspapers and magazines. A record of the publicity of the League is kept on the house of the back of contact among social workers, the Urban League called together early in May, 1929, social workers from fifteen different agencies and organized the Social Workers Conference, at whose meetings during the past two years many of the most prominent speakers have appeared. As the outcome of one of these meetings, the League was able to place the first Collegiate Nurse of the City of St. Louis and her work has proved entirely satisfactory. The most far-reaching piece of health work ever attempted in St. Louis was that of the Social Workers Conference in putting over the Health Campaign of last May. It is estimated that thirty the various meetings more than that of 2000 papers of lifespan and more than 20,000 papers of lifespan distributed. In this undertaking the Conference had the full support of every white agency dealing with health problems. So successful was the work that all of the leading daily newspapers gave their favorable editorial comment. The Executive Secretary of the Urban League was re-elected president of the Social Workers Conference for [the] League. The League has been called upon by the Chamber of Commerce and other agencies to make special investigations relative to white and colored individuals and organizations. In addition, the League has rendered assistance. Class In Millinery At War tions. Norway. She laid much stress on the need of cooperation, education and persistence. Mrs. Mayne H.

Also denounced the infamous Kiu Klux Klan and sent letters to the president against that organization in the Missouri Kruse City and the Governor of Missouri. ST.LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, SEPT., 2, 1921 vice to individuals and organizations in various parts of the country. It has achieved information for its National Organization in New York City, the Student Department of the International Y. M. C. A. the State Bureau of Labor Statistics, and other organizations. Because of the efficiency and standards of the League of Activities have been reported on by the Executive Secretary in other parts of the country, having appeared before groups in Milwaukee, Chicago, New York, Newark and Tulip. In this connection, it is important to mention the Executive Secretary was the executive speaker that has ever appeared before the students of Ludlow College, an institution for girls at St. Charles, Mo. This department has aimed to interest smaller communities in the need for improved living conditions among the colored citizens. It is thus possible that Joopin, Columbia, Hamolat, and several other cities in Missouri will at last have interracial committees in an effort to improve relationship between white and colored people securing larger facilities for the latter. Because of the League's interest and work in promoting social service among the smaller communities its Executive Secretary was made chairman of the State Committee on Negro Problems of the State Social Workers Conference which will convene at St. Joseph Me. in November. Immediately after the Tuba massacre of June 1st the National League requested the local organization to release its Secretary for special work at the foundation for an Urban League and in promoting interacial understanding. It is expected that an Urban League will be established in the fall. The Urban League of the St. Louis Provident Association shares with other organizations and individuals the satisfaction of helping the City of Tulsa and the 10,000 Negroes made homeless and destitute by the plot. How the Public has Viewed the Work When the work was begun nearly a decade ago, the only social administrators of improved social service were skeptical as to the outcome However, it is indeed most encouraging to the Committee of Management and the staff workers to have knowl- edge of the many favorable comments coming from all the colored people regarding the usefulness of the Urban League. The League Employs Five Workers With a Budget of $12,000 In setting forth the accomplishments of the League we are ever mindful of the fact that the moral and financial assistance which has made this work possible has not been given to the League as such, but to the community for its own settlement, and we hope its trustees, that our sleewardship has been satisfactory. The League acknowledges its holdoutness to the man who works through the secrecy departments of UFAM and other campuses have given so luxury their service in helping the UFAM League in grow. The committee of management is composed of the following: Rev. J. W. Drew; chancellor; J. L. Cusier; New chairman; C. H. Tanner; secretary; Mrs. B. H. Bendley; Mrs. Peregral Club; Dr. W. P. Curris; David E. Gordon; Mrs. J. H. Haskins; Edward K. Love; Mrs. J. M. McSchenyler Jr., Jr.; Mrs. W. McSchenyler Jr., Jr.; Milhan, J. E. McWorter; George H. Mangold; Mrs. Scott Porter; Mrs. H. A.

JUDGE TAFT'S FIRST CASE IS RACE PROBLEM New Supreme Court Chief Must Decide Whether The Japanese Are White WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 31. Contents that the Japanese are a white race, and therefore entitled to American citizenship, are down for argument at the forth coming session of the United States Supreme Court. The judge will be on the dock and may be heard on the floor. Justice Taft (takes his seat) October 31.

It will be pleased that "the root stocks and the dominant strain of the Japanese" are of the white race. Section 2169 of the United States, governing immigration attempts and prohibiting the granting of citizenship to members of the Mongolian race, is the one under fire. Counsel for Takao Ozawa will urge that "the Japanese are a free people, and that while Mongolian and Malay types are found among the Japanese, the Camerunian, or white type, is as prevalent."

We are men, who have risen from the traps men, who have risen to the top in spite of the accident of color." VIRGINIANS AROUSED OVER "LILY WHITES" Daily Press Unfair To Negroes Daily Press Unfair To Negroes The following article was sent to the "Globe," "Post," "Star" and "Times" last Saturday and each has refused to publish same up to date. Dear Mr. Editor: The writer has for years conducted a newspaper in this city, for Negroes, and has always made every effort to properly direct the minds of our citizens towards harmonious relationship between the races and I write this in the hopes of causing the white press to avoid every attempt to prejudice our cause before the bar of public opinion. In last Friday's issue of the "Globe Democrat" there appeared an article under the caption "Negroes who trolic in Cemetery, arouse white neighbors ire." This article goes on to make a number of false and misleading statements relative to the nature of the entertainments which are being held in the grove which is included in the tract of land known as Washington Park. The article states that they were held in the "Sexton's House" and that a "Dance Hall" has been built, amid the graves. These statements are absolutely untrue. That portion of the grounds which is used as a play ground is from 5 to 6 city blocks away from the burial grounds, a grove which is separated and enclosed and it is that far away from the Sexton's House. For a number of years the colored citizens of St. Louis have made repeated efforts to secure for their dead a proper burial place, apart from what was afforded them in cemeteries where Negroes were permitted to bury, which is usually in the lowlands, gullies and the least desirable section of these cemeteries. Several attempts have also been made to purchase and to locate a place to be used for amusement purposes, a park or recreation place, and on every such occasion and no matter where we attempted to go, loud protests and mighty objections were raised and in every instance our efforts came to naught. Last year the attention of our citizens was called to the splendid property located on Natural Bridge Road and we were a forded the privilege of accepting the same as a cemetery. A thorough examination of this project and of the personnel was made by a committee of our citizens and the offer of the Washington Securities, a syndicate composed of a large number of our leading citizens, among them, Judge Matt G. Reynolds, Chase Morsey, Jos. Carr, Cashier of the Chippewa Bank, Former Congressman Wm. F. Igoe, Howard Sidener, Circuit Attorney and others. The facts as stated relative to the efforts of the Negroes to purchase a suitable place for a cemetery and also a suitable place for an amusement place have always met with the opposition and fights on the part of the white press and our projects had to be given up. In coming into the possession of this large tract of land we found ample room so that we could for a time use a portion of it, twenty acres for family outings and for picnics of our churches and societies, and no charge is made for its use and it is governed by the closest restrictions. Many of our people who are taking advantage of this come out in their own automobiles and I assure you their conduct is most orderly. It is indeed unfortunate that in a great community like ours, Negroes are barred from the rights to hold entertainments in the regular parks and groves fitted up for these purposes, which fact should be considered as a conside upon these constant objectors. The Negroes seek to establish for themselves places for their own use and when doing so should not be attacked by such inflammatory and untruthful articles as appeared in the Globe Democrat, nor should their projects be condemned without an investigation and without an opportunity to defend their purposes before the bar of public opinion. We respectfully request and invite any of the parties whose names appear as objectors to Washington Park to be present at one of these entertainments or to see with what reverence and respect we bury our dead so that they may come in contact with our people and see for themselves the progress which we are making and the efforts which we are making to better ourselves. We are sure then that rather than being amusing, that they will accept to so their sympathy and helpful cooperation and encourage our spirit which will for better things amount of trying to fulfil the public mind around a worthy mission. (From The Pittsburgh. Courier) RICHMOND, May. 29. A storm of resentment has arisen that is likely to become nation-wide in its scope over the seeming policy of the present administration to permit "Jelly White" to be president in the South, and especially because of the disgraceful treatment recorded daily averreded Negro delegates at the Virginia State Republican Convention, held at Norfolk, July 14, when, for the first time in the history of a Republican convention, not a single Negro delegated to Norfolk, but two delegates to keep out all Negroes who applied for admission, and when three regularly elected Negro delegates with no contests pending against them were forcibly ordered to leave the floor of that convention, dominated as it by a congressman C. Bass Sleep child, a member of the Republican National Committee, and the leading adviser and spokesman of the present administration in the South. Not only in Virginia, but Negro lead- AROUSED LY WHITES" Treatment That Has Been And ful Race Republicans Whose Service Have Been So Soon Meeting For September 5. everywhere are astounded at the treatment that has been, and is being accorded faithful Negro Republicans whose patriotism and party service have been so soon forgotten. Pardence has ceased to be a virtue and intelligent, organized resentment on the part of Negro voters North and South seems the only many alternative, and the only native power that will tend to hold the Republican ship back to its团结性, to maintain its pride and fair play to all American voters, regard to race, color, or previous condition of servitude. A nationwide movement in this direction is already in progress, headed by Hon. J. R. Pollard, prominent Negro attorney of Richmond, Va., and "Nate" Chairman of a large Republican faction in Virginia which polled thousands of votes last November, and Hon. H. H. Price, also of Richmond, Va., the recent Negro nominee for Congress in the 3rd Virginia district, who polled 2882 votes against the 640 votes cast.

By William Pickens Associated Negro Press "But the Yellow man was "But the Yellow man is a menace" — Chicago Herald and Examiner. "Well, well, well!" it is the first surgical sign of 'imperiling conflict' between Americans and apes. The White press is praising the bravery of the Nero. The Herald and Examiner says that the Negro is all right, that his forefathers were brought here against their will, and that the presence of millions of American Negroes must be accepted as a fact, but that no more Colored races are wanted here, and especially not the "yellow." That means that the black race, or at least that portion of it in the United States, is no longer to be put down as the bottom race in American consciousness. The black are to be moved up a peg now, by the American flat; so that the geographies must no longer say "White Yellow and Black," but White, Black and Yellow." This must not suit up Mississippi, but it will suit up in a war between American and Japan. Look out, Black Brother, they are beginning in groom yoh for cannon fodder. There is one sure sign of war: when the white man's papers begin to stress the vitres, the rights, and the loyalty of the Colored population. The Negro wants something besides praises for "loyalty" this trip. Of course, this is the Negro's country. He has no other and won't have any other. The American Negro is more American than any other racial group. But he is also human and he was human long before he was American, and human belongs do not remain loyal to anything which is never loyal to them. If the Negro is treated as an American citizen, he will, of course defend this country against any foreigners, even against foreign blacks. But he has small hope of feeling that way about it so long as the savagery of Georgia and Arkansas endures. Just listen at the Herald and Examiner, how it sings: "The Negro 'belongs here.' The yellow man does not belong here." The Negro is no mance. He is loyal. He is a willing soldier in war," etc., etc. This is true, but why on earth, don't you impress it on Mississippi? If the Negro is "not a menace," why PERISCOPE. Continued. should he be burned, lynched, Jim-crowed, segregated, hemmed in, tailed, and held down? There's a loose 'nut somewhere; either the Negro is menace, or he is not. If he is not then there is neither righteousness nor predilection in his present treatment. If he is loyal, then those who lynch Jim-crow and bully him, are loyal. We wish thatt thatt the Negro could be permitted to feel that he is simply an American and a man in this country. As it is, we are not just certain how much enthusiasm he should or could have in a war against 'yellow men' because they are "colored." But if the call ever goes forth for volunteers to clean up the backward civilization of Georgia and Mississippi, we can snake our reputation on the prelude that every American Negro from sixteen to sixty would join the army within a week. The day dawned wonderful bright and fair. A cool invigorating breeze gave us energy and willingness to do the task before us. We had pledged ourselves to do what we could to arouse the Negro voter in an effort to打 our two Negro candidates on the ticket. These two candidates came from the largest Negro wards in the city. We started out and received our first surprise when we stopped to vow in our own ward. No one else seemed to have the jeep and the vision that made us look with a feeling of grate tude and with a hope that our city would become fair and royal, more just in its civic life. It was just nine thirty A.M. and in the precinct there had been only twenty five votes cast, one of them my own. But that is all right we think we happen to live in a white ward, our people we know in their wards are awake and appreciative of the chance they never had before, a chance to vote for one of their own. We finally reached the ward where the golden opportunity to vote for a Colored Councilman was before the Negro voter, for acceptance or refusal. We had heard that the white voter was surprisingly indifferent and not voting. We were shocked to find the same condition prevailing with the Negro. We ried to the door by telling them this and adding "If the Negro will only do what the man will go over you," a Ahoon to a counterpart who had been decided upon and we took up the block assigned to us. "Good morning have you voted yet?" "O yes, early," "did you do your duty, X?" "You bet X did." How good we felt. "Good morning folks have you voted yet?" "Nooee." Will you will, won't you?" "I haven't got the time to bother with it?" "O Yes, won't you help him?" "I seek on." From several houses this is all we got, and we were beginning to grow tired and discouraged, but we put it behind us and kept on. "Good morning have you voted yet? This time to an educated Negro woman with children playing around. No, I haven't yet. I want to go to the part this afternoon and I am too busy this morning." Hence you forgotten your Negro candidate in this ward." "Oh yes, I will go and help you." "Good morning, now your thing is." "We have been busy here long enough." THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, SEPT. 2, 1921 Hence we proceed to tell her how to do it. Her husband comes to the door and yells to us: You don't need talk to my life, ask and vote. We try to please them, how badly we need help both, but they sent us away almost, wondering if we had asked them to do something disgriecful, when we asked them to vote, we asked them to vote. And so we weary make our rounds until noon, when we cross over to the other ward and take up our job there. "Good morning, have you voted yet?" X. You I forget this is election day, too, little has been so cross, but I am giving right now. We are a professor, won't you?" I simply wish this is better but as we continue our round, we find the same amount of intelligence, the same lack of interest we found in the other ward. We finally reached a house, where we had three Negro men find four women sitting on the porch. A white insurance collector is standing by. COLLEGE PRESIDENT AND STUDENTS MAKE MALF MILLION BRICK Summer Vacation Spent On Material For New Building, Negro Loyalty Prison By Methodist Educational Header. By H. C. Foster NEW YORK, Aug 28. Brick-making as a means of spending a summer vacation is being put into effect by President Judson S. Hill of Morristown Normal and Industrial College, Morristown, Tennessee, in company with a land of students of that institution according to information received by the Board of Education for Negroes of the Methodist Episcopal Church, announced today. Morristown College is a thriving institution for Negro education with history extending back to the school which was founded as the first president. The original building had been an old slave market and several of its early pupils, whose ages ranged from seven to seventy had been sold in it in their younger days. One of these men afterwards became a member of the family and another a presiding elder in the local Methodist Church. There are now nine buildings with a value of over $300,000 and with no debt attached. This condition is due primarily to the efforts of President Obama to increase the funding for the institution which has received several substantial legacies. During the years of progress the president, has had to set as carpenter, painter, mason, as well as teacher. Many a time before he has had to draw on the natural resources available. President Hill needs, a half million brick on land with which to start the now-pulling. Conditions are such as to demand economy. With a score or more of loyal students, President Hill, who is white has set to work. They have dug into the bed of brick-making clay on the college land, and transported material to the site of the kilns, which are being built there. There is still enough for the building of the brick for the building of the beek and also the limestone at hand into line for the mortar. There is also timber for timber on a new piece of land which is being cleared for agricultural demonstration work by the college Department of Agriculture. A quarter of a million feet of timber have already been sawed from this land and drawn to the campus, where the work is to be done. The new building will be put up when funds become available, but President Hill and the students have faith in the future of Morristown College. Other buildings have a similar history to the one for which the material is now being prepared. According to officials of the Methodist Episcopal Church, under whose sponsorship the College operates, this building will be the refinement or thwart the growth of Morristown Normal and Industrial College. They pay high tributes to the royalty of the Colored teachers and students in the building of the institution, not only as perkins to actual obstacles of walls and roofs, but in the spirit of overcoming obstacles which typifies they say, the spirit of the modern Negro. LEXINGTON NEGRO FAIR CLOSES 54TH SUCCESS Associated Negro Press LEXINGTON, KY. Aug. 31.—(By J. A. K. Jackson, staff Correspondent for The Associated Negro Press)—The oldest Negro fair in the country has gone into history with its fifth success. For fifty years its conduct was in the hands of an association composed of retainers of the famous families of the State. These men, now old, have retired from active participation; and the profits of the original association are so carefully invested as to yield an annual income of more than 200 per cent for the members of the closed corporation who hold the stock. The new organization is giving its third affair. The personnel includes the younger and more aggressive Negro business men of the city and vicinity. The opening of the Negro fair is brought by the Louisville boy band from the Booker T. Washington Community house under Prof. Lockwood A. Lewis had a comparative small audience. However, the traditional fortune of the falls asserted itself and as the week advanced the attendance grew better and the weather became perfect. From 2006 on the gate records Tuesday, the attendance counted until the tunnels showed more than 16,000 on the big days: Thursday and Friday.

CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH 901 S. 10th Street The third anniversary of our pastor, Rev. J. W. Fletcher, was observed with appropriate services during the past week. The services consisted of the anniversary program selected by the members of Mt. Calvary and new True Light Baptist; addresses were made on various relationships of the pastor on the church and what he has accomplished in three years as pastor. The addresses composed a complete narrative, and were as commendable as any pastor would have received from his membership. The invited guest of the church observed with interest the services during the week, and heard the story as told by many of the harbantious relationship which has existed the past three years, without a disturbing ripening of the relationship. We wish to thank us to J. Mincfield, who was master of ceremonies during the week, for the mastery manner in which he presided. We thank too, the various pastors and their congregations for the Christian spirit and social reunion. The Sunday services consisted of the administering of the ordinance of baptism by the pastor, Fletcher and then an old friend, the hearts of men and women by the Holy Spirit. Our pastor wishes to thank the members for their liberal contribution—Rev. J. W. Fletcher, pastor; A. B. Love, reporter. A. M. E. LEADERS MEET AT MACON Associated Negro Press.

The net results of last week's trading in the cotton market were declines of eight to 17 points in the contract department. October closing the contract department at 12.46c and declines of points on middling spots, points on high and high of the week were made on the opening session while low prices came at the middle of the week. At the highest the more active months in the contract market were two to three points under the close of the pressing week at the low point. October traded as high as 12.73c and as low as 12.22c. The market moved over a range of 47 to 51 points. The outstanding features of the week were concerned mainly with the growing crop. It was claimed that deterioration was general and severe in nearly all sections of the belt and particularly severe in Texas, where the depth continued. At the end of the week private crop observers were sending messages from Texas placing the percentage of condition at only 50 of normal, in many cases, and as low as 45 and 48 in a few cases. These ligures compaired with 52 as the condition of the Texas crop in the government returns to July 25. Severe deterioration of the crop was observed in some localities, too much rain was complained of. Weed damage was reported over wide areas and even in Texas, in spite of the drubbing conditions there. You may be black or you may be fair, but the main question is, are you true? Lincoln's genius saved the Union. To save the Union he had to emancipate the slave. LAXATIVE BRO-ASPRIN FOR HEADACHE AND COLD Not Only BREATHING But Pain BITE BREATHING THIS DAY Beach Chemical Co. SundaySchool Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D. Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) © 1921, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 4 FROM PHILIPI TO ATHENS. LESSON TEXT - A168, 11:16 GOLDEN TEXT—The angel of the Lord accompath round about them that fear him, and delivereth them—Psalm Mk. 11; PERCENE MATERIAL—I and II Thes. PRIMARY TOPIC-God Takes Care of Paul and Silas JUNIOR TOPIC-A Midnight Experience in Philomel INTIMIDATE AND SENIOR TOPIC -Courage in the Face of Persecution. -YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -Preaching with Persecutions. 1. Paul and Silas in Jail (yv. 19.28). 1. The occasion (yv. 19.24). When the demon was cast out of the maid her supernatural power was gone; therefore, the source of revenue was dried up. This so exasperated her owners that they had Paul and Silas arranged before the magistrates on a false charge. Those men ought to have rejoiced that such a blessing had come to this poor girl. They cared more for their gain than for her welfare. This is true of the liquinctous crowding together of the poor in unsanitary quarters in our remembrance districts and the neglect of precautions for the safety of employees in shops and stores. Without any chance to defend themselves they were stripped and beaten by the angry mob and then remanded to jail, and were made fast in stocks in the inner prison. 2. Their behavior in jail (v. 25). They were praying and singing hymns to God. It seems quite natural that they should pray under such conditions, but to sing hymns under such circumstances is astonishing to all who have not come into possession of the peace of God through Christ. Even with their backs lacerated and smarting; and feet fast in stocks compelling the most painful attitude in the dungeon darkness of the inner prison, with a microwear before them filled with extreme uncertainty, their hearts went up to God in gratitude. 3. Their deliverance (v. 20). The Lord wrought deliverance by sending a great earthquake which opened the prison doors and removed the chains from all hands. 11. The Conversion of the Jailer (vv. 27-34). The jailer's sympathy did not go out very far for the prisoners, for after they were made secure he went to sleep. The earthquake suddenly aroused him. He was about to kill himself, whereupon Paul assured him that the prisoners were all safe. This was too much for him. What he had heard of their preaching and now what he had experienced caused him to come as a humble inquirer after salvation. Paul clearly pointed out the way to be saved—"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ." The word "believe" means to yield to and fully obey. The proof that the jailer was saved is threefold: 1. Transformation from brutality to tenderness. 2. Confession of Christ in baptism 3. His whole household baptised 11. The Magistrates Humbled (vv. 35-40). The earthquake brought fear upon the magistrates. They gave leave for the prisoners to go, but now they refuse to go, claiming that their rights as Roman citizens have been violated, and depend a public vindication. Paul was willing to suffer for Christ's sake, but he used the occasion to show them that persecuting men who preach the gospel is an offense against the law of God and man. IV. Preaching in Thessalonica (vv. 17-19). At Thessalonica he found open hearts. He followed his usual custom of going first to the Jew. (v. 1). After witnessing to the Jews he went to the Gentiles, Concerning the Christ he affirmed: 1. "It behooved Christ to suffer" (v. 3). No plainer teaching is to be found anywhere than the suffering of Christ (Iss. 53). 2. The resurrection of Christ from the dead (v. 3). 3. The kingship of Jesus (v. 1). The result of this preaching was that many Greeks, some Jews believed. M. Barching in Rome (on 10/5) V. Preaching in heres (v. 10-11). His method here was the same as at Thessalonica. He entered the Jewish synagogue and preached Jesus unto them. The Bereans received the gospel with glad hearts. (Two striking things were said about them: 1. They received the message gladly. 2. They searched the Scriptures daily for the truthfulness of their preaching. All noble minds have (1) an openness to receive the truth; (2) a balanced hesitancy; (3) a subjection to rightful authority. Exhortation to Holiness And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: to the end he may establish your heart unblamable in holiness before God, even our Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his mates—Thessalonians 8:12, 13. When God Appears. When we have broken our god of tradition, and ceased from our god of righteous, then may God give the heart with His pressure—Babylon. Loat Art Found in LILLY WH Attend GEO. R.

CORRESPONDENT IS "SWEET" ON CHICAGO EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE The Associated Negro Press. CHICAGO, Ill. Aug. 3L—"Chicago." There is fascination and charm in the word. It stands for opportunity, progress, optimism and big achievements. Throughout the country, people expect big things from Chicago, and Chicago is not disappointing the city. "The motto of the city is "I will." The city has been much accomplished under the spell of that couple of words. It originated following the great Chicago fire, back in the seventies, and it has clung to the community ever since. It began with the rebuilding of the city from the ashes following the first started by Mrs. C. Leary's cow. It was "carried" on them. The great "World's fall" held hope. It has continue to present time with achievement the mammoth "Bargent of Progress" astounded the people in all parts of the country. Things are done in Chicago. Colored Americans take an especial pride in the growth of Chicago. They may special entail to the right to live and thrive here for history records that the first home ever built in Chicago and owned by an American was built and owned by a colored mad, Jean Baptiste. From the beginning, Chicago has spread over scores of miles of territory, and in the spreading, our people have "got them". The incidents of bombing property does not discourage Chicagoans. "Bomb" is only a substitute for "Bury". Therefore, Chicago has the finest residences owned by Colored people in the city and its streets. They are on the most beautiful streets, and the growth of homelife beautiful, goes merely on. Commercial Progress The continental progress of the place in Chicago is developing into one of the murves of the twentieth century. From the beginning there has been much individual success. Scores of persons could be named who made good for themselves. But it is only within the last few years that Chicago has entered into a lively spirit of "group success." Out of this new vision of possibilities mas. grown many fine enterprises. Among them are the Bing State bank, the Cooperative groceries of which Major K. J. Jackson is president; the Liberty Life Insurance Company, or which Frank R. Gillespie is president; the Nile Queen Corporation, of which David R. Manson is president; the Douglass National Bank, organizing of which P. W. Cravers is president; the Pyramid Building and Loan Association; the Underwriters Mutual Life Insurance Company, the Fryamid Mutual Life Insurance Company, the Coalition and other businesses, large and small. These commercial developments are the hope of the Race. They promise big things in a commercial way, abett; they are accomplishing big things now. Chicago Linked With South Chicago Linked With South "One of the big promising things out of the commercial development in cooperation, is the linking of commercial interests in the South. This is a new phase of the awakening that is just now beginning to bear fruit. There has always been more or less South capital capital than North, and this development. But it hasn't been very cooperative. Under the "new era," the hand of cooperation is being extended across the Mason and Dixon线, "Hands across the sea" has nothing on this new line of contract. Big business of the South, among Negroes, is looking to Chicago for the final "go in the wheel" to make the face "go over the top."

Grubba the "Lily White Republican" Amnesty. These two meetings here in Washington making arrangements to call a national conference of Negro Republican leaders and voters throughout the country to discuss the Negro's present political status and to formulate the best plan of combatting the "Lily White" movement which seems destined to envelop and control the entire Republican party. The New York Times says: "The new Republican party in Virginia, hays claim to be a 'white man's party,' but with a benevolent interest in the welfare of the Negro. Partisan appeal to the Negro population has been abandoned and as a consequence people of position who refused to have any dealings with the Negro population are supposed to admit of social equality between whites and blacks are now alligning themselves in the Republican ranks, and what is more, galling themselves. Republicans. The new Republican party has not abandoned interest in the Negro, but it has said to him that the white people of the State are better fitted to govern and should be permitted to do so. At the same time, the white held out their rights, they are protected in their rights, they are protected in their rights, into good citizens and made to feel that the white people are their friends." Henry W. Anderson, the Republican candidate for Governor, says the state must be "white." The white people, he pointed out, constitute more than two-thirds of Virginia's population, own 95 per cent of the property and are generally more highly-educated than those of the colored state. He reviewed their capacity for government by reason of superior education and other quantities, and contrasted their stamina with that of the Negroes, copulating less than one per cent ownership in property and less advanced in education, although in this, he conceded, they have made and are making most commendable progress. As a result of measures adopted by the Republican National Committee in June an effort is being made to reform the Republican Party organization in Georgia. These measures were the outcome of the heavily increased effort last Presidential election. The claim was advanced that if it had not been for dissatisfaction over the character of the Republican organization in Georgia the State would have cast its electoral vote for Harding and Coolidge. The change, demanded was the appointment of the Negro member of the Republican National Committee. The general office in the District of Columbia, the general understanding being that President did this to remove him as a factor in the organization sanctioned by the National committee. Another step was the selection by the National committee of a committee of the best men affiliated with the Republican party in the State and some Democrats of standing who were from doing so on account of the influence of Negro politicians in the party organization. A few Negroes were appointed to this committee but it was made up largely of white men whom the National Committee believed would give tone and standing to the party which the Georgia committee was instructed to reorganize. President Harding is credited with leading and coordinating the National Committee with the idea in mind that if the Georgia experiment proved to be successful the plan of reorganization would be applied in other Southern States. "The Georgia experiment" this plan is called, but some of the men who are seeking to bring about a reform in party organization and methods in Virginia currend that it is based on what they see as the realities. Questioned concurring their plans, Messrs Potfard and Price, of Richmond, Va., said: "Our action is calling a National Conference of Negro Republican leaders is caused not only by the outrageous treatment accorded Negro delegates at the so-called Virginia Republican State Convention held in Norfolk, July 14, where police were ordered to remove all Negroes from the door of congressional offices, and delegated by the name of Edward T. Mickow, regularly elected from Arlington county; Vs. who refused to leave the floor, was forcibly ejected, but we are moved to take this step because we know that the "Lily White" movement while now largely confined to the south, while vigorously opposed and checked, will gradually eat its way into mid-central and northern states where Negro voters not only oppose the governor, and then it will be only a short time before the party of "Lincoln and Grant and McKinley" will have become the party of "Tillman, Vardann, Bassom Slemp and the Dexil." The convention of the States will be held in Richmond, September 51. The National Conference will be held at a later date. Associated Negro Press. Associated Negro Press, BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Aug. 31.

Chicago Won 8 Of 15 Games Played According to the planned schedule of the National Negro Baseball League the 1921 season was to consist of 105 games for each club or 15 matches between each club in the league. The Chicago Americans and the St. Louis Giants completed their number with each other Tuesday. The Chicago will complete their schedule with Kansas City in a series of 4 games starting Saturday. The Wednesday game at St. Louis did not count in the league standing. On the season's games between Chicago Americans and the St. Louis Chicago won 8 and St. Louis 7 of the 15 games played. The league standing however shows all clubs far behind the 105 mark and there must be some consistent playing if the schedule is to be conquered by the middle of October.
