Jackson of Stuarton; Superintendent of Public Instruction, Merrick, M. Walker of Richmond; Secretary of the Commonwealth, R. Y. Bacchus, Corporation Commissioner, Jack C. Hood of Roanoke; Commissioner of Agriculture, A. T. Brickleder of Exmore. Large delegations from each of the ten Congressional districts in the state packed the house to capacity at each session, which was a chapter in the Nation's political history, especially as affects coloured Americans. The house and every move and action of him with enthusiasm. Mr. Polidarii and his associates were given unstated praises for having brought such a representation and memorable gathering together—a gathering composed of citizens from practically every town, city and county in the Old Dominion—forward moving men and women with known and recognized in valued services rendered by the women in this race forward movement. The State Committee elected a woman member from each of the ten Congressional districts. The chair was yielded by Chairman Pollard to Hon. W. R. F. Cromwell of Roanoke who acted as temporary chair of the convention. Mr. Pollard led the Republican forces in Ireland and who made the fight at Chicago of all Republicans. Convention for due resolution of all Republicans without regard to color, was elected State chairman to succeed himself. This places the party in this State under the direction of the forces which have successively realised of its dreams when a full re-election was obtained. H. H. Price was re-elected State secretary, Mildred M. Cross was appointed and designated by the Chairman as vice Chairman and Miss Maudle Mundin, both of Richmond, was appointed Assistant State Secretary. Conference At Washington The convention authorized by special resolution its chairman to call a, Na- SUMNER ALUMNI ASS'N ORGANIZED SUMNER ALUMNI ASS'N ORGANIZED Last Saturday evening, Sept. 10th, about two hundred graduates gathered in the auditorium of Summer High School and organized a Summer High School Alumni Association. The elec- tory was organized by an address by Prof. Frank L. Wittch and a brief renunciess by Mrs. A. J. Gossein of the first graduates from Summer which was in '85. The purpose of the meeting and the names of election was explained by Prof. Edward Hamilton who acted as mas- der. From the moment the announcement of the selection of a temporary chairman, one could see a lively session was ahead. And it looked for awhile, as though it would be a contest between the women and the men. The men win the race by electing by Man- duree Grant, a 1904 temporary chairman. Mr. Grant had a job on his hands. A survey of the audience showed that the women were by far in the majority but they were considerable of the men and let them have is "few" offices. Owing to a ruling by the chairman, pinnations could be closed by motion many nominators were on the floor and trying to get the attention of the chairman. A contention to be quite at the Miss Huffman, Miss G. Dickson, Miss R. Harris, J. D. Willeerson, S. Curtis, and Ringer Brown were among strong contenders for their favorite. Miss Minnie Kess was for Maurice Grant from the beginning, saying he was in. The election her class at graduation was as follows: President, Mrs. Emma V. Goslin; Vice president, Miss Arnguis Williams; Second Vice president, John Diamond Dapurke; Record, Secy. Rocco Crenchay; Correspondent, Miss Ruth Harris, Mrs. Julia Buckner and Mrs Franklin; Tree, Maurice, Grant; Chapel, Miss Hay. The President of motion was appointed to appoint the additional members to make up the executive committee. The St. Louis Argus thought Conference at Washington, D.C. at such a time as he deems best and advisable to consider and formulate and prosecute a national policy for the colored people of America. It is expected that the Commission would make soils, but Chairman Pollard would vouchsafe no definite information as to the time when interviewed right after the convention adjourned. This National Conference will call upon each state to join Virginia in her efforts by sending representatives to the National Conference, and the conference will be national in every phase. Chairman Pollard expressed himself as jubilant over the success of the convention and stated that his hopes and desires, his aspirations and his dreams were all realized so far as is possible at this time. He further stated that the most formidable aggression of the candidates Virginia could have produced in loud in his praise for the expedition with which the business of the convention was carried out. Worn and tired as a result of the everlasting and constant tight, with the weight of his burden plainly showing in the lines of his face and the droop of his shoulders, Mr Pollard at the night session of the convention made plain that he was by no means worried about the day he at any time desert or surrender, for course for the most important cause the Negro is facing—the cause of citizenship; and the fire would recklegate in the eyes of this old war-horse as he waxed element in his plan for his people, in his denunciation of Lily Whiteism and all it stands for, and in blinding faith in his race to do things he would itself into the hands of the world, capable of anything of which any other race or people is capable. In a final retrospect Chairman F. Hard recounted, the incidents leading up to the present situation and thanked a who had had any pearl in bringing Virginia Repressors of the convention and Virginia Repressors of the convention. He told the unofficial efforts of Sir James H. P. Price, the man who was defended last year for Congress, in his eternal vigilance for the good of the cause and in his sacrificing work to "put over" pure Republicanism and redeem the fear of the clutches of narcissus and hypocrisy, as it largely due to the efforts of H. P. Price. He said, "that we are where we are today, and too much praise cannot be accorded this quiet and powerful man." ANOTHER COLORED BANK MESSENGER ROBBED Bandita Take $14,800 From John Hellenis, Employed In Place Of Eris Pillow, Who Was Shain John Hellenis, 3819 Washington boulevard, Colored messenger of the North St Louis Savings Trust Co. was robbed of a satchel containing $14,200 in currency by a bandid while he was on a south-bound Grand avenue street car at 1:15 o'clock Wednesday afternoon.

Published In The Interest Of Colored People THREE MORE RESIGNATIONS AT LOUISVILLE THREE MORE RESIGNATIONS AT LOUISVILLE Negroes Quitting City Positions Under Republicans To Join Independent Movement LOFTSEVILLE, Ky. Sept. 14—Without doubt the most surprising as well as the most important event of the week, in Colored circles has been the resigning of Mr. Alex Morris and Mr. John Pillows from city jobs to ally themselves wholly with Lincoln Independent Party. Mr. Alex Morris is Chairman of the Alex Morris organization with six members in his work for their living, and are self-respecting and creditable citizens. Mr. Morris has been a stunner Republican all his life and worked hard and consistently for the success of the Republican party, was a real minority party. Despite his worth and quality the best thing offered Mr. Morris was the Superintendent of the Colored bathhouse. A Race man and he always been involved in any movements that meant the advancement of the race. He too, has been disgusted with the local "Republican" and their treatment of the Colored people. Once continued that Colored people would benefit by the movement to run a Colored ticket in this campaign he readily joined hands to put it over desharing he was a man. It is conceded that he, Mr. Morris' alliance with the Independent movement is a tremendous lift to the movement. It is said Mr. Morris will have a large hand in the direction of the campaign. Along with Mr. Morris' designation went that of Mrs. Georgia Morris, his wife. Thursday, Mr. John Pillows, who had been operating the elevator in the City Hall, is also a member of the Colored Republican Organization and is a soul race man. It is significant when two such men resign all connection with the local "Republicans," they must be really rotten when a partisan like Mr. Morris leaves them, because he is an old line Republican who has always put the Republican next to his religion, he sees as 15,00 others will see that the Republican from principal, they are not Republican from the cultor of Lincoln, Grant, Roosevelt, McKinley, etc. They are "Republicans" for office only "Republicans" who want to get in office and if it means to kick and spurn and insult "the Negro" get office they will readily do it as at heart they are ill-white and as prejudiced as the rankest anti-Negro Democrat in the South. Jim Crow Signs Put Bark The "Jim Crow" signs are up again in the public parks of Louisville! They have been seen by scores of people who could not believe the "Republican" could be inceptions, so disregardful as Colonel voters as to replace them, hence when told they were up again these people went to see and were convinced. For sixty years the parks have been open to the citizens of Louisville and never have been desecrated by the segregation signs. Democrats have come and gone and even the dirtiest, narrowest, of them has never thought to ablaze the parks and insult the colored people by placing signs saying "the colored people are not the system of a city is calculated to add to the beauty and attractiveness of that city; it is calculated to increase the pleasure and joy of its citizens, to give them relief from crowded city conditions, to keep them in touch with nature and develop in them a love for the beautiful, etc. They are absolutely the property of the citizens and taxpayers and this is a principle of the community. Creative friends and enemies when office and up to this year no one ever thought to put a "jin crow" sign in a Louisville park. Now comes the "Republican" party put in in office absolutely by Colored voters—not a single, hungry white office holder in the city of Louisville but who would really be working and caring his head by the sweat of his hands without notice, without any kind of public demand, without cause or excuse except that down in their own white soul's more prejudiced than the ranked Democrat—they want to insult the Negro. THE N. A. A. C. P. MEETS NEXT TUESDAY NIGHT The St. Louis Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will hold a speech, at the St. Louis St. Paul Church, on Wednesday, 20th at 8 o'clock. All members are urged to be present. ST. LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY; SEPTEMBER 16, 1921 PULLMANCOMPANY PLANS TO EMPLOY RACE CONDUCTORS Reported Displacement Of White Men With Colored Creates Considerable Of A Stir In The South. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 14. Birmingham railroad men displayed considerable interest in reports received from Memphis and Nashville to the effect that the Pullman Company has plans under way whereby white Pullman conductors are to be replaced by Negro porters, to collect fares and perfor other duties on many trains. It was stated in these reports that this experiment has been inaugurated on a number of trains in the North and South, and tried out in a quiet way in the South. Memphis reports indicate that attention was called to the practice by the stronomous protest of persons living along the Tennessee Central Railroad, who, it is understood, have warned the state railroad and utilities commission, that they will not tolerate it. F. J. Carton, representative of the Pullman Company in Birmingham, is at present on his vacation, but W. A. Reed, who is acting in Mr. Carton's place, has not received any advises from the Pullman Company on the point, although he had heard of the reports emanating from Memphis. Other railroad officials declared that they did not believe any such rule would be made effective in this territory. It was pointed out, however, that it has been the custom from time to time in the past on branch lines, where only one parlor car was attached to trains, at the porter attended to trains, at the factory and other duties under the direction of the conductor of such train. In the reports from Nashville, it is stated that six Pullman conductors may be dropped last 1, and it is stated that four of these runs between Nashville and Memphis. A short time ago conductors were taken off two runs out of Memphis, one to Little Rock and one to Tennessee, it is claimed. It is further pointed out that Pullman conductors are said to make salaries of from $170 to $190 a month, while Negro porters are paid from $40 to $70 a month, but make salaries of only $100 with it in therefore deserved $200 a month. For run that a porter can be substituted for a conductor, the company would save about $100 per month. Interesting developments on several lines are expected in the next few days, especially trains between Nashville and Atlanta and between Nashville and Knoxville, it is declared.

The AGUE DRA PRESENTS DEON THE Grand and Finney n $1-75c-50c. B PARAMOUNT BOYS sationt exhibits of the year. The village consisted of twelve Negro savages, brought from the Victorin Nyanza region by an enterprising showman. Eleven years later these same twelve pygmyes were shown at another expedition in St. Louis, decked out in all the pomp of barbarism. Again they were the center of attraction. After this expedition they were given $200 and offered transportation back to their native village by the showman, who would then remain here. Scattering over different lands the creators of these twelve pygmyes from Central Africa blinked at Twentieth Century civilization until, as the time went on, slowly one by one they succeeded to now and strange diseases. Of the twelve who left the village on the shores of Nyanza in 1892 to come over the big waters to the white man's bazaar, there is only one left. He is Charlie Oliver, and he is now working as a day laborer in the Emporia gas plant. Seven days ago he came to Dr. J. C. Brickel's office with a burn on his arm. Charla, the savage from Central Africa, is a short, stocky, quiet Negro in blue overalls. Here is the story he tells in answer to questions: "I think the people over here are all wild, all eager for killing. Back in the village we were not like that. I will tell you why I think so. When I left the show in St. Louis the man who me charged of us told me app my husband in another man's country, and you must be good. You must hurt anybody." "For twenty years my mate and I worked in the South. We were good and didn't hurt anyone, just as the showman told us. But we didn't like the white men in the South. So a year ago we moved to Tulsa. There my mate and I bought a house. She stayed in town to keep our little son in school, while I worked on a farm two miles from Tulsa. We heard talk of trouble between the Negroes and white men in town to keep our little son off afraid. We believed in this country and people. If we went about our work quietly no one would hurt us. "Then one day as I worked on the farm I heard shooting in town and people coming back said there was a war between the Negroes and the white men. But I was not afraid for my mate. I knew she would not go out house. If there was shooting in the street the sky was red with fire and a big crowd of smoke rose from Tulsa. Then I began to be afraid for my mate. "Next morning I hurried to town. I found my mate and my son buried under the faming ruins of our home. For two days I could not pull the charred boards from their crooked bodies. White men driving like mad devils the street the autos would shoot at me as I worked. I don't understand it, but this I do know. My mate didn't hurt anyone. She always remembered that we were in another man's country. These people are mad for blood. "White men here have been very good to us and I bear no grudge against white men. Why should I? I got I do know this: If ever I find the man who set fire to our house I will crush his bones to toothpicks. "I hear white men will rebuild the homes burned during the two days' fight but I do not care what they do we make. I am never going back. "The months I came to Emperors to work in the army. I get enough money I am going to Africa. My mate is gone and my little son is dead, so what has this country done for me that I should stay? "I want to go back to my people in the village by the lake to die. I do not know the name of it, but the man who brought us ever is still in St. Louis. He will tell me how to get there." "I hear the white men have put schools in the village. That is a good thing for my people. White men are sometimes, very good in its, but they are mad for blood." In Africa sometimes we fought, but never bury them. In villages. Back on the lake the villagers have members my mate and me. I think. They never knew our little man." To love is to love. Love man.

Anita Stewart in "Playthings of Dostoyevsky" will be presented at the Olympia Theatre Saturday. It tells the story of Georgy Arnold, who falls in love with Julie Laporte and marries her, only to be deserted by her before the honey-moon wanes. He doesn't discover the reason until six years later, when he mends her married to another man. The climax for his suspense is when the love-begotten boy returns fortune, a stigma from which it seems possible that only misery can result. Then in a moment, everyone is happy, including the audience. Seigne Hayakawa in "The First Born" will be presented on Sunday. It is a tremendous portrayal of romance and drama in the lives of the world's oldest civilized people whose customs are little understood but whose love is still withstanding great width. "The First Born" is a story that ranges from the Hoang Ho, the Chinese River of SoSrows, to the Chinatown of the Golden City and back again to the Hoang Ho, now turned to a River of Joy. "Blue, Blood And Red" And "O'Malley Of The Mounted" At The Casino George Walsh in "Blue Blood and Red" will be the feature at the Casino Theatre this Saturday. "The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari" In this Fox picture the red-blooded son of a rich but frat father dileshes in his white speedster over the road that had through the cattle country of the West. A leaky radiator makes it possible for him to meet the charming girl in the barn, but from that time the excitement does not let up, until the end. A glimmer of Black Magic from the Middle Ages, in a picture that runs the gamut of spinet-tingling thrills! Also—FOX NEWS and TWO PART COMEDY William S. Hart in "O'Malley of the Mounted" will be the Sunday feature. There is a mystery of real thrill—the search for a murderer in the wilds of the western country. Like a bloodhound Hart follows his man into the hills and becomes one of the bandit crew which is protecting the culprit. By a strange twist, the man is the sister of the man he is after and the latter saves him from death at the hands of the bandits. How this situation is made to end happily will puzzle the operators to the last. But it does and the interest and logical termination afford a picture that will not soon be forgotten. Narasova in "Billions" And "Bob Alumnation Of Places" At The Lincoln Naiapuva in "Billions" will be the spectat in the Lincoln Theatre Sunday. As its titles implies, "Billions" has to do with wealthy people. It relates the story of a Russian Princess who comes into riches and of a poet who also inherits in fortune. They have loved as the result of his verses, but have never met until they both journey to a fashionable winter resort in California and are introduced Meenah, with the post-millennial, and he is saved from a scandal when the Princess, at the risk of her own reputation gets into his bed in neglect to throw the designs of the other woman. On Sunday, this theatre will present Marshall Nellan in "Bob Hippmon of Placeer." In this picture, the producer has used 1,500 mm and horizons of the Tenth Cavalry, stationed at the front of the fort, to duration of these spectacular military effects the entire Fort was turned over to Mr. Nellan.

KU-KLUX-KLAN AND THE MAYOR to California, the Ku-Klux-Klan has for the past ten months the subject of much discussion. Men from the public affairs to the man in the gutter have passed his organization, which has caused so much aggrievement that it has matched with considerable interest, the conduct toward the Klan, not only in St. Louis, but in other sections of the country. This observation was made by the announced policy of the Klan to "first," as members, officials, the mayors of many city officials, denounced the Ku-Klux-Klan and pledged to their good offices in suppressing such an organization in the dark, and is nurtured in the post and religious prejudices. But to date, we have a former Mayor Kiel with regard to the activities of Louis, nor his attitude toward the same. Aspect that other mayors and other public officials of the Klan, does not make it absolutely necessary to condemn it; but as Mayor of a City like Louis, many different nationalities and religious beliefs think that Mayor Kiel would have spoken on the subject. The Mayor's best friends confess that the Ku-Klux-Klan is shrouded with mystery, and the reason as to whether or not he belongs to the Klan, Mayor. Let us know where you stand. Put against the Klan.

B. Ziff Co., 608 South Dearborn St., Chicago, Ill. THE KU-KLUX-KLAN AND THE MAYOR From Maine to California, the Ku-Klux-Klan has for the past six months been the subject of much discussion. Men from, the highest in public affairs to the man in the gutter have passed judgment on this organization, which has caused much agitation and newspaper comment. We have watched with considerable interest, the conduct of public officials toward the Klan, not only in St. Louis, but in other cities in different section of the country. This observation was made necessary by the announced policy of the Klan to "first get public officials" as members. Following this, announced policy, the mayors of many cities and other public officials, denounced the Ku-Klux-Klan and pledged the assistance of their good offices in suppressing such an organization, which flourishes in the dark, and is nurtured in the bosom of race hatred and religious prejudices. But to date, we have not heard a word from Mayor Kiel with regard to the activities of the Klan in St. Louis, nor his attitude toward the same. The very fact that other mayors and other public officials have condemned the Klan, does not make it absolutely necessary for Mayor Kiel to condemn it; but as Mayor of a City like St. Louis, with its many different nationalities and religious beliefs, we could not but think that Mayor Kiel would have spoken on the subject ere now. Even the Mayor's best friends confess that his silence on the Ku-Klux-Klan is shrouded with mystery, and there is some speculation as to whether or not he belongs to the Klan. Speak out, Mr. Mayor. Let us know where you stand. Public sentiment is against the Klan. The leading newspapers of the city see grave danger in its operation in this city. Surely it would be the manly thing for the Mayor, as chief executive of the city, to speak out on the subject—"Silence gives consent." Among the colored people of the city it is recalled and discussed about the Mayor's approval of the "Birth of a Nation," the infamous photoplay, which labelled the Negroes of this country and stirred-up racial prejudice and racial feelings. It is charged that Mayor Kiel attended and approved the advance showing of the picture. These are some of the things that St. Louisans should remember. The mayor has professed to be mayor of all the people of St. Louis. Then why should he court favor of the Ku-Klux-Klan, an organization that is "anti-Jew," anti-Catholic," and "anti-Negro"?—These are some of the things we want to know.

From bad carrier to phone carrier who owned six years is the record of a blind Negro here. He is Zora F. Q. Tinstey, who became blind, when unlacked lattice spattered into his eyes some twelve years ago. Something from Texas in 1916, he found the need of rural residents for telephone service. He wanted something to do—to keep himself from breeding over his troubles. Rigging up a telephone line would hardly be thought a suitable occupation for a blind man, but this fact did not prevent his wife, who went to the manager of the husband exchange, Harry Ixgou, with his scheme. Lyons, though skeptical of the success of the enterprise, loaned the Negro five old telephones and six phone switchboard. Tinstey already, had his trouble getting three more. He was about capital, he went after some wife, who bought 200 lbs for $9.30 and had it seized. He borrowed a beam, went into the woods and cut his own owperies. He wat them up bluelf, millions accompanying him. thick and fast. He worked hard and accommodated them all. Now his grandmother most of Muskogee.

His investment now probably is $1,600. Utiles and Negroes alike are his customers; does all his own line work, repairs the instruments and makes installations. Negroes Protest Against Removal Kirkwood School Negroes Protest Against Removal Kirkwood School Continued From Page One court last Saturday in which Joseph Watson, Burton Hargen and S. P. Singley of Kirkwood, all colored are plaintiffs, the Board of Education of Kirkwood, the District Directors of the Kirkwood School District, the judge of the county court, the clerk of the county court and Albert A. Wilms, collector of revenue, are made defendants in the second. In the first suit the plaintiffs allege that members of the Board of Education, the District Court for building purposes from 40 cents on the $100 valuation to 50 cents, without holding a legal election. They confend that to raise the rates it would require an election for such at which a majority or two thirds of the district must vote in favor of the district Under the Constitution and laws of the State, school districts compose less than 100,000 inhabitants, taxes for building purposes shall not exceed 40 cents on the $100 valuation unless submitted to a vote of the people of the district at a regular election and the proposition carried by a majority of two-thirds of the voters of the district, except in cases where the indebtedness shall be existing at the time the district is formed. The Board of Education raised the taxway to 30 cents on the $100 valuation in order to secure $20,000 for building purposes. This proposition was ordered by enacting of the board at its first meeting in 1867. It is understood that the $20,000 was used in the construction of a building for the colored needs of the district. The plaintiffs also claim that the board, at the same meeting ordered two months additional school which they avert is unnecessary and ask the court to set aside both this order and one raising the tax law. In addition, the petition alleges that the plaintiffs own owners and tax papers and ask that a cloud caused by the cause of the tax be removed from their property. In the second suit filed, the plaintiffs ask the court to restrain the Board of Directors of the Kirkwood School District from bearing a building of the colored pupils of the district of extreme Southern portion of the city in what is known as Meacham Park. They cite in their petition that the school building for the past fifty years was beaten on Adams avenue within the corporate limits of the City of Kirkwood but that the building was destroyed by fire several years ago and that time a portable or temporary building has been erected on the site for the new building of the colored pupils of the district and contend that the new building should be located on the same site. The plaintiffs claim that there are about 155 colored pupils of school age in Kirkwood District and that 110 of them reside within the city limits of the City of Kirkwood, and that 80 should the new school building Nice township on the site proposed by the school would be completed at a distance of one mile, cross two railroad tracks, reverse streets which have not been paved or upon which no sidewalks have been laid. They also claim that the new location is more than a half mile from a street car park, far removed from any modern improvements, such as gas, water and lights. It is claimed by the plaintiffs that the proposed new location is alongside a secondary and in close proximity to harms, stable and pig pigs and that the site itself is most undesirable. They claim that in choosing the site for the location of a building for the pupils of the district, the Board of planners had no other designs than the colored people out of the City of Kirkwood, and to discourage education among the colored people. They cite to the court that the old site of the building for colored pupils available and is much more preferable than the new one chosen by the board. "They further claim that the election of Mrs. Comelia Compton was illegal in that the law provides that a member of a school board must be a male person above the age of 21, and that in choosing the site for the building at a location of the board on July 4, the president of the board cast a vote when according to the law it is not entitled to a vote with the help of a when there exists a vote between the other four members of the board. "They not only ask the court to retain the board of directors from the destruction of the building for colored pupils in the site chosen by them, but issue a suit compelling them to erect a suitable building on the old site which has been unused in school purposes for the past fifty years." The members of the Kirkwood School Board are: William C. Browni president; G. H. Worrell, vice president; A. A. Jeckel, D. C. Kennedy, J. H. McKalvey and Mrs. Cornellia Comnery. W. Harper is secretary of the board and is made a party to one of the suits. Becker and Heege are attorneys for the plaintiffs. HAVE YOU SEEN IT A Ready Reference to the Negro Business and Houses of St. Louis. "The Classified Reminder" For the Home, Office, School, Church and places of Business. Distributed by OWENS ADV. & PUB CO. 2225 Market Street St. Louis, MO 63101 REPORT ON NEGRO LIFE IN ST.LOUIS Survey by Missouri Negro Industrial Commission Shaws Much Unemployment and Housing Poor. PAUPERISM IS SAID NOT TO BE COMMON Overcrowding in Certain Districts Said to Be a Serious Menace to Health of Citizens. Employment and housing conditions among St. Louis Negroes are outlined in the semi-annual report of the Missouri Negro Industrial Commission. The commission was appointed by Gov. Hyde and its chairman is Natthandi C. France, principal of a Negro Industrial school at Dalton, in Charleston County. A survey of home life in the 'ty of St. Louis, it is stated, showed the following facts as to 200 families, which it says were picked at random: Average years lived in State, 13; regular married couples, 188; common law marriage, 12; divorces occur of non-support, 7; male wage earners, 200, of whom 20 per cent are unemployed; men's average wages, $2.50 a week; women wage earners, 108, earning an average of $425 a week; church members, 288; nonmembers, 228; children of school age in school, 128; 84 deaths in the last year under 5 years of age, 75 per cent of them being from pre-teen age; the men, 200 used tobacco in some form, 188 had used intoxicating liquor in some form, 12 had money in bank during this period; 10 per cent were home-owners of living homes, and 20 miles were skilled mechanics. "The figures indicate," the report says, "that in St. Louis, there are at present around 10,000 colored men out of work, through no fault of their own. It is also found that paulperism is relatively uncommon among us, though we are frequently charged with being honesys and hacking foresight. The honesys and hacking foresight us to neatness and proper care and widensness of refinement were more common than rare. Housing conditions among the city Negroes could be improved," the report continues. "As a rule rents are higher than for whites for the same accommodations. Houses available to the Negro are so large and so far larger his houses than for whites. He his bills to fill them up with roomers in order to pay the exorbitant rents he wear and tear on the doors, many of which go uncovered because of lack of furniture to properly equip such places, give them a run-down appearance, and the very effect of the Negroes' poverty is incentive enough for the average result refuse to make reports, with the result the white Negro district soon resembles a delit decayed by the locust pest." "Negro homes of the small apartment kind are sorrowly need to replace many of the large, tumbling-down old tenant houses. In this field some men of means will find a profitable source of investment, and it cannot be proven that the Negro will fail to care for property within his means to either rent or buy. No one like beautiful things better than the average Negro, whether it is in fine clothes or a good man, a good man with money to build a good house, a good house, if he has the right vision will find tenants it is possible to secure. But this overcrowding is a serious menace to the health of all citizens, white and black. Here it disses georgia dress; crowding means less chance for thorough cleaning, poorer ventilation and all that goes to favor disease breeding. Crowded Condi (s) Described "in one house on Clark avenue are nine children of numerous families; the toilets are right at the kitchen door and disease is hovering about, ready to enter; within 50 feet of it is another housing nine adults and no children, in less than six rooms; another two-story six room house has six adults and five children, six adults and five children, and thus it has a number of districts. One landlady in this district even cut out what rentation she had from a porch between two houses, to transform the porch into rooms so more people could be accommodated, and the entrance to the apartments was made on the outside. In this case hogs could be better treated." As the result of a recent survey of St. Louis as to its Negro population, it is stated that for the Negro population, estimated at 70,000, there is one of the finest high schools in the country. There are 50 Negro physicians, 16 dentists, and 10 lawyers. Other figures given are; "A public grammar school for every 5,833 persons; a church for every 2,222 persons; a barber shop to every 400 peoples a public school teacher to every 280 people; one steam laundry; for every 23,222 people; two Negro controlled life insurance companies; a number of other colored men in the life-insured business; three hat manufacturers; 11 real estate deniers combined in a Negro-real estate exchange; a ladies' and gents' furnishing store; a d store; one jewelry store; a drug store to every 12,400 persons; two colored hospitals; an undertaker for every 7; a coma factory; a forliter; 12 coloring rooms; two carpenters seven printing plants; four stools; a tea and coffee store; pillinets, opticians and electricians two each; two photographers; three artists and painters; policemen and firemen; the largest plant for manufacturing beauty preparations for the race in the world, as well as one of the Y.

See That Your Advertisement Appears In This Paper WHITE SAILORS, IN RACE WAR ATTACK CAPTAIN FOR FAIR PLAY Howard University WASHINGTON, D.C. NEW YORK. Sept. 14.—Thirty white men and a dozen colored members of crew of the Shipping. Board vessel Chester Kiwans, anchored off pier 13. State Island, fought a desperate hand-band battle with the enemy. After the whites had mutinied and attacked the captain, while the Negroes strove to defend him. In the seaward-thickness, just before dawn the battle raged with primitive fury for more than an hour. Biting, clawing and striking, the men swayed and shaken. The Negroes woke, mingled with the crash of flying missiles, and an occasional shot. The captain had his arms bitten and head and face badly lacerated before the Negroes rescued him from the infuriated whites fled to his cabin and harried himself there after directing the gydreless operator to send for The wireless operator's S O S, brought the police boat John F. Hylan with fifteen patrolmen armed with riot rifles. The searchlights of the police boat, trained on the freighter's decks, revealed a welded and savage sight. Locked with blood, the men were still fighting, with blind fury, shouting and screaming. The deck was strewed with broken bits of wood and other debris used in the combat. The police boarded the vessel and quickly put an end to the fight and released Captain Boatthy. None of the combatants had been seriously injured and ab refused manpower. The Nerroes decided to remain on deck and keep watch. Trouble on the Trip Captain Boothby told Inspector Hullock, in charge of the police, that the trouble had developed during the 12 day voyage from Boulogne. The whites he said had accused him of invading the Negroes, giving them the easiest duties to perform. He denied any partiality. Police remained near the crew's quarters until all the whites had fallen asleep. When the inspector left the vessel he instructed the wireless operator of the freighter to report to the police headquarters immediately at any recurrence of trouble. Inspector Hallock and Fred W. Graham, pilot of the John F. Hylan, said Captain Boothby told them the twelve men sewn saddling the two men into white men members of the crew ever since the Chester Kiwians, which has a general cargo, left Boulogne, France, about twelve days ago. Saved'By Negroes The ship anchored Saturday. Last night the whites, the captain said, made threats to "get him.

Soon the fightlight became a Fleeing of the Captain RECORDING The captain told Inspector Hallock that he had barricaded himself after instructing the wireless operator to appeal, for help. The attaches attacked him, the captain said, biting his arm and indulging various other lacerations, but after a severe struggle he got away. The captain said he did not want any arrests made as he expected to unload his cargo in Brooklyn today and then discharge the crew, all of whom are Americans. The captain of Kwanza is a vessel of 3,710 tons. The agents for the vessel art James W. Elwell & Co. of 17 State street. It was announced by officials of the James W. Elwell & Co. that a charge of muting would be made against the insignators of the battle. The definition of the trouble as mutiny" came in a radio from Capt. Boothby. The Chester Kiwanis left her, anchorage after the mutiners were quieted and proceeded to dock at pier 72 North river, foot of 32nd street. DELEGATES TO WORLD CONFERENCE OPPOSED TO GARVEY MOVEMENT American Delegates Reject Plan To Establish "Black Republic" In Africa "PARIS, Feb. 9—Negroes from 14 national including some thirty representatives from American, delegates to the Pan African Congress here have decided not to support the program of Marcus Garvey, provisional president of Africa," for the establishment of a "black republic" in Africa. The Congress is headed by D. E. Burgess, Director, New York. Instead of sacrificing present nationalities, the congress insists Negroes must endeavor to take greater advantage of their opportunities under prevailing conditions. The body is firm against efforts of the Negro in the Russian Bolshevik. Senator Albert summed up the attitude of the congress when he declared: "Rather than return to Africa and remain Negro, I prefer to remain a Frenchman." Garvey's "African for African" scheme, was sidetrucked by a suggestion that Leaguer of the United States would remove line in all member states. Dr. DuBois stated, "The Colored American cannot withstand the African climate. We cannot oust the Europeans and do so desire to do so." PAN AFRICAN CONGRESS REPORTS GREAT SUCCESS NEW YORK, Sept. 14.

At the session in London, England, Dr. W. E. R. DirBols reads the manifesto which protests against colored people being treated as undervillified, and argues that the experiments of Negro self-government in Hawaii and Alberta, and the treatment of African Americans not been fairer. The manifesto demands enfranchisement based on educational qualifications alone, and urges that it is the duty of the world to assist in every way the advancement of backward and suppressed groups of mankind. Learn first what to do with rights. Learn first what to do with rights. Learn first what to do with rights. Remember there are people in the world other than yourself. You are the biggest thing in the world but you are not all the world. The St. Louis Argus NEW NEGRO HAS ARRIVED, SAYS KELLY MILLER Demands Fulfillment Of Declaration Of Independence And Constitution Of Country. Educator, In Letter To Public Ledger, Tells Of New Spirit Developed By War. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 11. "The Negro who is content with existing conditions is a satisfied slumber; while the Negro who advocates, the destructive radicalism is a dislaborate and unjustified force of Howard University, Washington, in a letter to the Public Ledger the other day. "Any individual or group of individuals" be continued, "who are willing to accept without prejudice less than fullness of American citizenship is the only thing that matters about to be ushered in. The leaders of any suppressed people should speak boldly even though ambassadors in bonds." Since time began mankind has been divided into two types of temperament—the radical and the conservative. The radical is habitually dissatisfied with the existing order and seeks change through revolution. He would rather prove all things than to hold fast to what is good. The conservative is dissatisfied to be content with things of they are and deserves offence or retaliation. Social upressure is the result of these two conflicting tendencies. In the fundamental sense there are few Negro radicals. The Negro nature possesses the conservatism of locust. Some Negroes are cautious, while others are courageous in the expression of their conservatism. The cautious conservative believes in moderation through education and modifies their attitude from the radical who advocates change for the love of innovation. A Satisfied Simpleton The Negro who is content with existing equilibria is a satisfied simpleton; while the Negro who advocates radicalism is a distracted blight. Before the World War the race leadership was divided into two hostile camps based upon adolescence in the one side and assertion on the other. There never has been a time of satisfaction with existing status, but merely in the sense of prudent silence in the face of wrong. All right-minded Negroes everywhere and at all times must want equal and impartial laws, equally and impartially applied. Any other attitude is simply unthinkable. Every Negro who is using less above the level of the livelihood he is commanded in denouncing the full measure of unhappiness. He would not be a worthy American if this were not so. Courageous and Sensible Any individual or group of individuals who are willing to accept without protest less than the fullness of the status of American citizenship is not a material for the new order of things now about to be ushered in. The leaders of any suppressed people should speak boldly, even though they be ambassadors in bonds. It is not impossible for the Negro to be contemptuous and sensible of such conditions. He must not be satisfied conditions which he must not let such conditions cover his spirit or sour his soul. The highest function of the higher education of the Negro is not merely to produce a set of educated automobiles who can play a handcraft or practice a profession with creditable cleverness, but to develop a class of men who can make the masses in terms of persuasive speech and literary power. Their voice should not be controlled or constrained by any outside correction. Their attitude must be candid and courageous if they would fulfill the high functions of interpreting to the world the feelings, hopes and aspirations of the people who took to them for leadership of learning North and South, has produced its quota of leading Negroes who are now insisting upon the fulfillment of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. This courageous attitude is shown by Troffer, of Harvard; the Dukals of Fisk and Harvard; the Drumkens of Ijnech, Frazier Miller and Miller, Howard Welton, Welton Johnson and Heworth, of Atlanta, William H. Perris, of Yale; William Pickens, of Yale and Talladges, Ernest Abbott of Hampton; B. G. Brawley, of Morehouse, and Max Barber and Chandler Owen, of Virginia-Union. It is no reflection to say that those Negroes today who like any other public attitude—are not the most courageous and lowest courteous and in lowest understanding and are moved by motions of thrift or constraint of prejudice. This spirit is not limited to the educated Negroes, but pervades the entire mass of the race—the man between the plowhandles, the merchant applying his tools, the music in the bowls of the earth, the millman pater, the turmeric in the millman pater, the sugar in the millman pater, and are moved by the same motives. Now More Humble. Although they may not be able to give voice to the conditions which they may face, they are not insignificant in persuasive speech and literary power. ST: LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, SEPT., 16, 1921 WHAT COLONEL KERLIN WROTE GOVERNOR M'RAE ABOUT ELAINE CASES Former Va. Military Institute Professor Was Dismissed for Likening Trial of Race To Congo Barbary. The following is a complete reproduction of the letter written by Colonel Robert T. Kerlin to Governor MacRae, of Arkansas, in reference to the execution of participants in the Elaine Insurrection, the writing and publication of which was the basis of the action by the board of visitors of the Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, in dismissing Colonel Kerlin from the faculty. The letter written May 25 and professions against the execution of the attack June 10. "It is a deed to be contemplated with extreme horror," wrote Colonel Kerlin to Governor MacRae. "In the execution of those men a race is suffering enslavement. I entrust you to take the matter into your private chamber and give it an hour's care, nostral consideration, as before the Eternal Judge. Have these men been dealt with accustomed justice, according to the principles of civilized and human governments." The writer then cites an article of Inga Charita and also to Article VII of the "Bill of Rights" which assures to the even accused person "trial by an impartial jury," the right of witness testimony, and to the accused person "conseil for his defense." Another article referred to forbids "crud and unusual punishment." Coben Kerlin then asked: "Can it be maladapted that these men have been tried and sentenced according to the principles of these charters of our country? Can they be sentenced to review the entire case with the utmost canber and absolute courage. "Consider first, the iniquities of the pomeage system, which, as tenants and sharecroppers, these men were accused of conspiracy known to the world, and are bulunable." "As for instigating or beginning a riot, the evidence added in the case was tried before the Supreme Court of Arkansas abundantly and conclusively disapproved that, in the case of an armed attack, and molested that they armed themselves. That they should provide themselves with weapons and carry these to their meeting seems condemnatory. But consider the provocation. And were they assured the protection of law, they did not, Mugabe said, not responsible to the point of madness may have been their action in arming themselves; but it was not criminal. "Consider, next, the cruelties to which the hundreds of men and women were subjected who were herded into blockades or crowded into the city when the world with full knowledge of this will be revalued by such Congo burtharty." TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE OPENS ITS 41ST YEAR TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE OPENS ITS 41ST YEAR Associated Negro Press NT SKKEGE EIST, Ala., Sept. 14.

Car., Sept. 14—Two Col- oped men, Manfield Butter and Charlie Thompson, were lynched in corn- field near here last Thursday night. They had been charged with an attack on a white woman. The men were found tied to a stake about 200 yards from the scene of the alleged attack with their bodies riddled with bullets. Associated Negro Press NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 14—There were admitted to the United States during the fiscal year ended June 30 immigrants to the number of 806,228, as compared with 800,001 for the pre- vious year, and an average of 1,043,840 during the pre-war years from 1910 to 1914, according to figures issued today by the bureau of immigration. Commissioner General Mounted in an applicity in assuming the pre-war rate WHITE HORROR ON RHINE, NOT NEGRO HORROR WHITE HORROR ON RHINE, NOT NEGRO HORROR Writer For The New York Nation Says Whites, Not Blacks, Are Guilty Of Raping German Women Growth Of Venereal Disease Due To White Soldiers Is Real Menace. NEW YORK, September 14.—Dramatically rages and assaults upon German women in the area occupied by the French is being perpetrated by the white and not by French. French rage is coming to Lewiston, K. Gummet, a white man writing in yesterday's issue of the New York Nation. Referring to the cases of rape during April and May in which German women were attacked on the streets or forcibly carried into the suburbs where they were overpowered and raped by the two or three soldiers. Dr. Gummet says: Not one of them refers to a crime committed by a Negro! The five stories tell of twelve soldiers brutes; seven of these were warriors, (Hurgely Arab stock), and not one a Negro. There are Negroes, confluked Negroes, on the Rhine, as I said; but it is my conviction that they behave, on the whole, better than the French whites and far better than the Moroccan whites and abused without adding the dirty scores of the white tree to its count. Hundreds of Cases murders. "God knows there is more enemy enough in sober facts. It is very near to humanity impossible" to delyft tens of thousands of celebrate males with almost nothing to do among a people to whom they are hostile by tradition and whose language and customs they do not understand, and whose violent crimes resulting the growth of veneral disease in the Rhineland, the largely to the white soldiers there, is appalling. I wish our German-American friends would make a frontal attack upon the very principles of military occupation and any other enemy that could join with them. There is a black horror on the Rhine, but it is not a Negro horror, that clear." K. K. K. REGULATES COTTON PICKERS' WAGES Associated Negro Press CORHSICANA. Texas. Sept. 14. A notcher named "K. K. K." posted in the colored, section of Blooming Grove, warning Negress that they must pick cotton, resulted in virtually all the colored peppers they popped up in cotton fields. The wage demands has been 75 cents a hundred pounds for picking cotton. It was said 50 cents per hundred was the prevailing rate today. DISFRANCHISE ATTEMPT FAILS IN DELEWARE DIST. DISFRANCHISE ATTEMPT FAILS IN DELEWARE DIST. CHESTER, Del. Sept. 14. One of the most dastardly attempts ever made in any northern county to disfranchise colored voters was the attempt made by the Macbate-controlled county commissioners of Deleware county to keep off the assessment list nearly 2000 colored voters simply because these voters are thought to be the supporters of Judge John Johnson. The laws of Pennsylvania provide that the citizens shall be assessed in May of each year and it is the duty of the various assessors to see that the assessment is properly and generally made. Failure to be assessed gives the citizen the right to appeal to the county commissioners. The Macbate-controlled commissioners refused to list the names of these colored citizens, and the followers of Judge Johnson hailed them into court in his whistle-blower case in his wife's name and knowledge of the law, issued an order for the names to be placed on the voters' list. The followers of MacDade are pannicky, they see the handwriting on the wall, their machine is going to pieces fast and they are inclined to resort to any kind of methods to try to win When the colored voters learn how the MacDade gang trial to disfranchise the members of the race they will present a solid phalanx in support of Judge Johnson thereby showing this great judge, this broad humanitarian, that they never fail their friends. COLOR'D MAN AND WOMAN ON THE ELECTION BOARD IN NEW JERSEY TOWN RED BANK, N. J. Sept. 14—For a long time the colored citizens of Red Bank, N. J. have contended and insisted that in view of their political strength in Red Bank, especially in what is known as the "West Red Bank" district, were justly entitled to a place on the election board. In compliance with their request and for the first time in the history of the town, two colored citizens of Red Bank were elected the ninth district this fall. Mine Ruther Williams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Williams of Bridge avenue and a elder to the only colored politician, Springe Williams has the house of being the deaf colored woman and living close to a woman of Red Bank. Mine Ruther is the town of the nine district. Department Of Justice To Make Investigation Of Ku Klux Activities WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—Attorney General Daugherty has instructed Chief Burns of the Bureau of Investigations of the Department of Justice to inquire into the act of knifing Kai Kuxh Kluan and report findings in the statement in a statement to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Mr. Daugherty said: "I have requested Mr. Burns to give the matter personal attention very promptly. As soon as the information obtainable has been considered, if the department is of the opinion that the Government should lay its hand upon the organization referred to or take action against those organizing and participating in the movement, the position of the department will be promptly and publicly known. "A vigilance organization of this character, or any similar character, is not necessary under our form of government, which requires all citizens, without preference or special aid, to it that the laws are enforced properly and legitimate activities of citizens of all classes are not interfered with by any other class, no matter how high they may set themselves up in virtue or how well justified they may consider themselves to regulate government affairs. The matter of government affairs is not friendly to any man or organization behind the mask, no matter who he is or where he comes, from." KU KLUX KLAN DENIED PERMIT TO HAVE PARADE Philadelphia Director Of Public Safety Says There Will Be No Public Initiatives In That City PHILADELPHIA Pn., Sept. 14 — "officers of the Ku Klux Klan organization in this city will be responsible for any acts committed by individuals of that organization, or by the klan itself." This statement was made Thursday by Director of Public Safety Cortelyou. Director Cortelyou said he had refused offers by Klan officers to have the members of the Ku Klux Klan cooperate with the police in maintaining law and order here. "Some time ago a report was circulated that there was to be a man withdomestic violence and a member of the criminals, and the organization's work here was thoroughly investigated," he said. "The result of this investigation I do not wish to make public just now, but there was no truth to the rumor about the "denigration." People who werearmed in report Klanism will best assured that in this city there will be no parades public仪立郎 or the using of tar and feathers by that organization." KU KLUX KLAN OPPOSED TO AT LEAST HALF OF THE U. S. POPULATION KU KLUX KLAN OPPOSED TO AT LEAST HALF OF THE U. S. POPULATION NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 14. The KuKuKhKlam is actively opposed to the last half of the population of the United States, according to the taboo classes which Albert DeSilver enumerates in The Nation for September 14. Violently antigovernment, anti-Semitic consistently anti-religious members of the Catholic Church, the Klan exploits local prejudices and throughout the country fosters class oppression and persecution. Citing numerous cases of mob violence which have been charged against the Klan, Mr. DeSilver asserts that the Klan is a terrorist organization or not they were committed by actual Klansmen. Since it bears the name of a terrorist organization of the past and has adopted all the current class prejudices, it invites rowds of all descriptions. Many join the Klan. Some call themselves KuKuKhKlam and paying others its dignantly oppose the Klan but copy its methods." The Imperial Wizard claim that the Klan is "the soul of chivalry and virtues' impenetrable shield." his full-page advertisements in leading papers do not absolve him. Mr. Desilver says for not having forseen the menacing results of his money-making organization. AMERICAN LEGION OF FOUR MINUTE SPEAKERS TO OPPOSE THE K. K. K. The Associate Negro Press CHICAGO, IL. SEPT. 14.—The Ku- Kinx-Klan was vehemently assailed as "completely an American" and "the greatest disintegrating force at work in this country today. Born in Belfast, Fife, France, before the Dill Pickle Club last Sunday night, The Ku-Kinx-Klan strikes at the root of principles upon which this nation was built," said the bishop. "It undertakes to do in a secret manner duties delegated to established institutions. I presumes to be the judge and jury. It presumes to be the judge and jury. It is the direct antithesis of Americanism. "It is the greatest disgruntled force at work in American history. It holds all of the duties. It is the direct antithesis of Americanism." THE TRADE MAKER PAGES 7-12 DAUGHERTY DENIES BEING MEMBER OF THE KU KLUX KLAN U. S. Attorney General Says Never Authorized Use Of His Name. Goff Says The Department Has Not Given K. K. K. A "Clean Bill Of Health. WASHINGTON, W. C., Sept. 14. Evidence concerning the character and activities of the Ku-Kux-Klan is being gathered by the Department of Justice preparatory to a thorough investigation of the order. Attorney General Daugherty has received a number of communications which, it is understood, will form the basis of the inquiry. It was said Chief William J. Burke, of the Bureau of Investigation, probably would be asked to conduct the investigation, going particularly into charges that the new Ku-Kux-Klan attempts to subvert the annual program of the associational and consensual authority over individuals and communities. It is revealed that the original organization of Ku-Kux-Kan was exposed and put out of business by the Federal Government after nourishing 'in the South for several years following the Civil War.' An official investigation into the purposes and personnel of the present organization, it is believed, will determine whether any Federal statutes are being violated. Officials of the Department of Justice have asked whether the new organization is subversive of law and order. If this is found to be the case, prosecutors will follow. Attorney General Daugherty, who has been declared by Klan organizers to be a member of the body, has denied the report. He was never invited to join and never in any way authorized or consented to the use of my name in that connection," he said. Colonel Guy D. Goff, assistant Attorney General, also denied that the Searchlight, origin of organ of the Klan Klux-Klan, was given a "clean bill of health" by the department. In the initial article of a serial mag. that Klan Klux-Klan revived in New York, We have this to say in explanation of its growth. "When it was organized it was directed against the Negro. Now the Negro has become a side issue with it. Today it is primarily anti-Jew, anti-Catholic, anti-alien. On the Pacific Coast it has been knocked to Japaphohes and whispered in their ears that the now man is a slave in America to rise against the white man. In the cities of the Central West it has, pretended to devote itself to stamping out radicalism. On the Atlantic coast it has preached that an abolition man or woman, even though naturalized, has no place in America. Everywhere it has banned Jews from membership and made anti-Semitism one of its many missions. Everywhere it has frankly it has attacked Roman Catholics. Wherever a prospective member lives, he has been promised that his pet aversion will be made an object of Klan action. "It owes its growth to the employment of a large number of professional salesmen, who not the country in an up-to-date sales organization and pedal memberships on a basis of $4 for every member takes a share in the appeals of its agents in Philadelphia contrus the fights of the Word's investigator. There is no real or fancied evil, or even grievance, in the country, against which the promoters are not ready to register the organization as an antithele while it proclaims the cardinal principles of true Americanism. But ask one of these solicitors to square the whispered revelations of the potency of the "invisible empire," with the fundamental principle of democracy in the United States which creates a representative government that is the maximum of individual freedom consistent with the common welfare may be guaranteed under them; and this expositor of Americanism would be in difficulties. Americanism is safe only when it is under the law, which is open without or justice, determined by the highest representatives. No "invisible empire" can be American, and the louse the claims of prestige on this score the mere fargent is the anti-Americanism which is confessed. to the present time. "It subjected colored people to such gross ingestibilities that the government was finally obliged to suppress it." he insisted. "It was formally placed on trial as an organization, convicted, condemned and abolished. And that's what should be done today." Col. B. Smith, 325 Grace Place, head and founder of the Honorable American Legion of Four-Minute Appreciation, of 260th Street in Chicago is planning to carry out a statewide drive for double membership to oppose the Ku-Klux-Klan. west © ROMCCSGREEN | YLEaETiEY | mons |” Feral Director and Embslner pours Bomont 3148 ie Fe eae eee, eS a } HSL Niettomblle For al Ocenrlene ee SS * UNG) : o; sa Undertaker and Embalmer \ ~~ {Mator Equipment Central 555 - - -2732-PINE ST. “+* * Bbmont 1426 | M,C.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY. GRASP IT. MIDDLE SCHOOL IN THE WORLD; & TRACTOR INSTITUTE Dept. 15 ST. LOUIS, MO. **By Wm. Pflanzen.** "And the evening and the morning were the first day."—But if creation was done in seven days, what was the relative length of such a "day"? Recent investigation of the astronomers might serve as a good Bible commentary. There are days in this universe that are 100,000 years long as a year is measured on the earth. From edge to edge of the universe of worlds seems to be a distance of about one million "light years," that is, it takes light one million years to cross the universe, although light travels at the rule of 180,000 miles in a day. When we say that the light which lasts for one million years, to cross the universe, we state in words a distance which means man can represent in symbols on paper, but which the human mind cannot grasp in any sort of concept. Our power to conceive is limited to the small experiences of this little world, the earth. On the outer edges of this universe are great worlds which turn on nxes as does the earth—but while a point one mile from the center of such a norld, only move as slow or even more slowly than does a point in the earth one mile from its center, yet a point on the surface of such a norld, the world must move at an inconceivable rate. Some of these spinning worlds are so large that a point on the surface may come around to the same position in space only once in every 50,000 or even 100,000 yenas. While the surface of such great orbs moves, at such tremendous points, points as near the center of the earth's surface is moving at such a rate that one momentously slows. One turn constituting a day, so that a day on the giant world may be 100,000 years. (earth years.) Verily, a day is a humiliated thousand years, and a hundred thousand is a day. "0, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?" THE MINERS WAR (The Associated Negro Press) Of course, the United States Government must insist upon law and order in West Virginia, at any price for any other price is cheap. The price of law and order. 'Ward' made by any faction is cheap to be put down. But that is all. Since Federal troops are be called to put down the militia after the rebellion is put real government to thoroughly investigate the causes of the trouble, and to see that the wrong things are readjusted to right, so that the trouble may not recur. It would be a sad mistake for the Federal government to merely go in and stop the miners, and re-obstruct them to the state and the mine operators, and then wash its hands and step out. For that would say to the miners: "All government and the army are on the side of the mine operators, your enemies. The national government is one of your enemies, and your most dangerous enemy. For as long as the mine owners, your little ones can get the better of you, they will be left to handle you; but as soon as ever you seem to be abashed, and the upper hand in the struggle then the all-powerful government will take the place of mine owners and crush them. This would create more Bolshevism than if thousand agents of Lenin could ever stir up. And a democracy like ours, which is already used to mobocracy, holds greater terrors in inaccessibility than any European nationality. If this country ever turns "red", it will make Russian look pale blue. All who love American civilization, should insist that the general government act out the whole role of imperial mediator, and after restoring order see that justice is done and wrongs righted. The simplest mind of the simplest miner knows that the same power which is strong enough to put down their wrong-losing, can also put down the wrong-dolings of the mine operators and their power if that power wants to do so. And the mind of the mine will be watching if that is done. If it is done, the simple minds will reach the plain and inevitable conclusion that government is but the ally, or worse still the reserve power of the healthy oppressor. For example, all those "guards" and arrest officers clothed in the power of the state and bearing arms, should be under the absolute control of the state government and not under the pay and therefore in the control of the mine owners. Hiringlings will serve their masters, and neither the general community nor the miners can ever get a square deal from the hirelings of the mine operators. The mine property should be taxed sufficiently to pay the costs of policing it, the police power and the policemen should be under the control of the state and the general community as the great protector of cities in protest. But police force in the hands of corporations or of individuals in a police force by the party in a contract, is a force of thugs. How would the mine owners fare if the policemen were all in the pay of the miners' unions? Such officers cannot be impartial. THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, SEPT., 16, 1921 (Continued from recent issue) "How do you do, have you voted yet?" "No we haven't got time to bother with it." "Won't you take time and help one Negro candidate in this war?" "Well, I won't." "I can't bother about nothing but pork chops." "The white man gives a giggle of satisfaction at this display of ignorance and 'don care' wit." Here is a Negro, lifing down to my expectations of him, he thinks. We ask him. "Have you voted yet?" "No I haven't time." We answer him. "You know you are not telling the truth." He does not answer and we feel sure that he has told the lie to appear honest. We chance to down one notch lower—which chance was eager taken. We left them all laughing in loud jolt guffaws. By this time it was two o'clock, and we are due at the Juvenile Court to appear with a committee of other Negro citizens to support the Prolate Judge who is endowing to get the Prosecuting Attorney to present to the Grand Jury the case of a white man who 'had contributed to the delinquency of a fourteen-year girl that was brought to a child hostel. The man's married and the father of two children. The girl is a child in 'every respect, so much so that a Coererian operation was necessary at the time of the baby's birth. The Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, after seeing the girl tells us he will 'do what he can'. However, he shows where he stands relative to us by calling attention to the possible effects the Negro girl against a white man may have before a white jury. We will that the jury is against her to its white girl, the girl as she sits on the chair, she is so small that her head does not reach the top of the chair back, and we tell him we are willing to risk our case. Tired, discouraged, heart-sick and almost hopeless with the outlook, we remember that the official in that state office was elected by popular vote last fall. The people, the Negroes, especially must have been as indifferent to the Primary election then as they are now. When the election day came they had left only a choice of two dilemmas. The vote. How gen have dled to give it to their children and like most fortunes inherited, the heirs misuse or waste it. We wonder which is the best way to give or to ward it. We think of the tons printed matter, the energy in craftmaking, the millions in craftmaking, the millions in the use of speakers, all trying to be the multitude the value of the ballot and to get them to use it. We think of the old saying, "In one ear and out the other." We wonder why some of it doesn't stick. But we also remember the whale who strains an awful lot of worthless water for its food, but is fed. We determined to keep on maybe during our life time we will be able to say one or two words about this matter that will serve as food and help the people to grow and think. WOODMEN OF THE UNION MEET AT HOT SPRINGS Associated Negro Press HOT SPRINGS, Ark. Sept. 14. Several special trains and extra cars brought upward of a thousand delegates and vistors to the city to attend the several sessions of the Woodmen of Union at its annual Supreme session which opened here last Wednesday. Mayor Delivered Strong Welcome Mayor H. A. Jones of Hot Springs delivered a strong address and welcome his statement that it is his purpose to be mayor of the people who was amply borne out in the fine spirit of good will understandable between the two races in this city. The "Rapid Growth Revealed" The "high spot" of the session included the magnificent address by Dr. E. A. Kendall, the supreme president and the splendid report of the supreme custodian, John L. Welb. The Woodman of the Union operates in eleven states and during the fiscal year just closed collected from all sources $284,173.20, an increase of $30,000 over the previous year. Mr. Welb's report also included reference to the $100,000.00 bath house which has been paid for. When it was shown the bill and other real estate transactions had been done without a slight assessment of the eligibility there could be heard on the highly efficient leadership of the Supreme custodian. Such an achievement is unexamined in fraternal circles. In his annual address, Mr. Webb emphasized the importance of thrift, of better race relations and the necessity for better living and educational conditions in the rural districts. Mr. Webb told of having visited the closing exercises of school some weeks ago where the graduating class of some twenty members had only three "boys." That condition, he said, is comparable to prevalent and considerable lack of animation to the education of our youth. Nero enterprises are working up every day and here is a constant and insistent demand for competent well trained young men. Your mothers and fathers owe it to yourselves, to your children and to your race to insist upon your boys attending school and compiling their education.

"Sweeping changes in reorganization of all cavalry units of the Army, placing the Second Cavalry Division, comprising the 3rd and 4th brigades and the 3rd and 4th Machine" Gun squadrons, on the inactive list and mobilizing units of the 5th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th and 15th Cavalry regiments, were ordered today by the War Department. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People immediately communicated with Senator Cappy and Wadsworth and Congressman Hamilton Fish, Jr. asking if this state meant was correct and whether they could advise any action to be taken by the Association to insure the preservation of the 9th and 10th Cavalry regiments. As a result, the following letter addressed to Senator Wendworth by the Attendant General was forwarded to the offices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "No orders have been issued to demobilize the 9th and 10th Cavaliers. The writer probably misinformed the order to demobilize the military troops of white regiments, and of all white regiments. As a result of the reorganization and reduction of the Army, all regiments, white and colored, have been reduced from fifteen troop regiments to eight troop regiments. In addition, three white Cavaliers regiments are being placed on the Tacticive Ltd. "The 9th and 10th Cavaliers will continue 'Active' and be responsible amply for white regiments, and all additional troops will be made available to the Tacticive Ltd."

NATIVES OF INDIA PLAN TO BOYCOTT ENGLAND Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill., Sept. 14. The hand of revolt has heavily upon India. Under the leadership of M. T. Ghandi, a highly educated Hindu, and called *Mamunha*—meaning saint by his followers a great majority of the 300,000 natives have combined into a nationalist movement to secure absolute freedom, not by taking up arms against the British, but by boycotting them in every way. During the time I was in India I had ample opportunity to watch and observe what was going on. I also talked with Ghandi, and also him with him, and observed high nativities, who has renounced everything his personal fortune and his practice as an attorney, to carry on the work of the nationalist party. Personally, I do not think Ghanidi nor his cause will succeed owing to the great difficulty in harmonizing the various religious sects. Ghanidi is booked upon as a sort of national hero, but he is not a national hero in parts of the country to honor him. Even in the more remote sections along the tiny river settlements, one hears the shout: "KI jat. Ghanidi." meaning, success to Ghanidi. The strictly nationalist, party as Ghanidi told me, favours on any display of violence to Ghanidi, but knowing that such action will only harm and not better the nationalist cause. But the Mohammedans, who are united in the movement for absolute freedom, openly preaching violence to further its ends not believing that such action will only harm and not better the nationalist cause. Viceroy Reading has frequently suppressed publications preaching oppression and violence, as espoused by Shakur and Mohammed Al, two brothers who head the Mohammedan group. One part of the nationalist program has been to segregate natives from all British influence. Indian children have been taken from European schools. Native professional men have been asked to resign all titles conferred on them by the government. Mohammed Al has been advocating educational independence. Chandal made a mistake, for he incurred the family of Mrs. Annie Begant, the wife of a missionary, and very influential-throughout all India. On hearing of this, Mrs. Begant hurried home from abroad and was one of the big leaders of the moderate party so called because it does not count as all of Ghana's ideas, but is sympathetic toward the nationalist cause. One sad feature of India is its great number of literates. It has been said that 280,000,000 of the natives cannot read new write. Living conditions are growing better. Women, especially of the higher castes, have injected themselves into affairs of importance. But the lower castes especially the coolies, are still in a pittable condition. Associated Negro Press NEW BEFOREFORD, Mass., Sept. 14.—An increase in the demand for cotton goods is reported here, with consequent stimulation of operations, the output being at 80 to 90 per cent of normal. Recovery in the yarn departments is reported much slower, although one mill has started up a night shift to take care of the orders received during the last few weeks. When the machinery installed in new mills is ready, mill heads say, there will be a shortage of skilled labor. The Associated Negro Press CALCUTTA, India, Sept. 14.—A dispatch says the police in Punjab have revealed a conspiracy among the Nikhs to overthrow the British Government and assassinate Europeans. The dispatch adds that the prosecution of the alleged conspirators will be undertaken. JAPAN INVENTION WILL REVOLUTIONIZE STEEL INDUSTRY Associated Negra Press TOKIO, Japan. Sept. 14.—A new process by which sadium, or magnetic sand may be converted into pig iron and used in the manufacture of made paddle by Goro Matukuta and Dr. Asobu Najato. The discovery, the scientists aver, will not only revolutionize the steel industry in Japan but of the world. The process is carried out by means of combining the sandiron with coke, using hot gas flames and making ferrous iron which iron can easily be taken. The discoverers claim the new process will make Japan one of the biggest iron producing countries of the world, and make her independent of England or the United States. (By REV. P. B. FITZVATR. D.

LESSON TEXT- I Cor. 10:23-33; 1:16, 1:17, GOLDEN TEXT—Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. I Cor. 10:21. REFERENCE MATERIAL—Rom. 12:1; 14:13-11; 15:1, 2 Cor. 8:30; 9:18-27. PRIMARY TOPIC-A, Clean, Strong BENEFICIAL. JUNIOR TOPIC—How to Win the Race. INTERMEDIATE AND BENIOR TOPIC—Presenting One Body a Living Sacrifice. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The True Meaning of Temperance. The occasion of this teaching was the uncertainty as to the right attitude toward "things sacrificed unto idols." This problem was most vital while the Christians were in the midst of the heathen, and with some modifications no less vital still. In mingling with society many perplexing questions arise, such as amusements, way of spending Sunday, enjoyment of luxuries, owing stock in certain corporations, etc. Our lesson contains principles adequate for our guidance in all these problems. It was customary to divide the animal offered in sacrifice into three parts. One part was consumed on the altar, another part was given to the priest, and the third part was kept by the party bringing the offering. The priest's part was frequently sold in the markets. The part which the offerer kept was sometimes eaten at home and sometimes in the court of the temple. The Christian who bought meat in the market was liable to get meat which had been dedicated to the idol god. Then, too, one would be invited to eat socially at the table of someone who had kept his portion of his offering and now set it before his guests. Some with adequate knowledge had no scruples about it; others with less knowledge thought it sinful. The one who has knowledge should bear with the weak one, and at the same time should seek to teach his brother the truth so as to set him free from bondage of superstition. The glory of God should control in all things. 1. "All Things Are Lawful for Me" (v. 23). This declaration is limited, of course, by which things are right in themselves. It is not true that a Christian is free to do those things which are wrong. The Christian can only indulge in "lawful things" as they are expedient and unto education. As individual Christians we have liberty to do many things which because of their influence on our fellow Christians we should abstain from. Even with one's self that which is not edifying should be ruled out. 11. "Let No Man Seek His Own" (v. 24). The Christian is under the control of love. The controlling principle of love is unselfishness. The one dominated by love considers the other's interests rather than his own. 11. "Eat the Food Set Before You" (vv. 25-30). It is not incumbent upon us to be on the hunt for occasions of the conscience either of ourselves or others. Exercise your freedom in the enjoyment of all right things which the Lord places before you, but ag as soon as it is brought to your attention that certain things are to the disadvantage of others, you should desist; that is express self-control. IV. "Do All to the Glory of God" (v. 31). This is the grand and supreme rule of life for the Christian. The Christian is not at liberty to do that upon which he could not ask the blessing of God. In our eating, employments and pleasures, we should have as our transcendent aim God's glory. How could one ask God's blessing upon the intoxicating cup, dancing, gambling, theatergaming, Sunday deseration, luxurious extravagance, etc? V. "Give No Occasion for Anyone to Stumble" (v. 32). We should so live that no one can ever say that we have been the occasion of their downfall. VI. Follow the Example of Jesus Christ (11:1). Christ through love gave up all for the sake of others. He did not please himself. Everyone, therefore, who is a Christian should imitate Him. VII. The Christian's Body Is the Temple of the Holy Chest (16:17). This great truth is true of the Church as a body, but that, which is true of the body is true of the individual composing the body; so the point in this Scripture is the serious consequence of defiling the body.

A. N. P. CORRESPONDENT SAYS ATLANTA NEGROES' LEAD US IN BUSINESS EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE Associated Negro Press TILANTA, Ga., Sept. 14: They are big things in Atlanta in a big way. If you think they are not, come down and look over this beautiful metropolis of the South. The specific object of this story is to give a closeup of the progressive business side of our life in Atlanta. Too often people get their ideas of communities from criminal stories, always. Front page flame: "Alabama Atlanta has suffered a notorious information. When you come here and see that the business people are doing you go away with a new impetus and a new vision,—there is no question about that." There is one notable paststanding condition in Atlanta. The older men of Atlanta, Herndon, Howard, Rose, Sr., who came to business, opulence through the proverbial "trigala and tribulations," are not only continuing to be progressive and pushive, expressal interests, but are backing up the young profession with their exertions and good will. Indeed that's beautiful fact. We must have more of that pulling together every where. Mittalans have vision, so according to Scriptural formula, there is no danger of them perishing. There is nothing too big to tackle and put over in Atlanta. Here they talk in thousands and hundreds of thousands like communities talk in dimes and quarters. It requires no more energy to do a big thing than a little thing, quantify less time, them and push that's the combination that put things across here. Dollars, you say the system, they make the large money work a half dozen different ways here, just like Mr. Freel. We have never seen an Atlantan worrying about money. They seem to have plenty of it, or the equivalent, and they get on the job. Athens's Leadership in Business Here are some of the things the Negro has in Athens: In addition to its hundred shop keepers, Atlanta has: A banking house, serving every financial need; a life insurance company (home office); a life insurance company (state office); two accident insurance companies, (branch offices); one casualty insurance company (organizing); one trust company (organizing); one fire insurance company (organizing); a chain of building, loan and investment companies; a chain of grocery and produce stores; two jewelry establishments; two photograph studios; three modern dyers and dry cleaning establishments; one chain of laundries; one motion picture palace; largest office building of our Race in the World; three newspapers; four employment bureau; three printing establishments; nine undertaking firms; two joint stock companies; two commercial supply manufacturing companies; two commercial hardware store; five hair and toilet manufacturers; three fraternal insurance organizations; one motion picture film manufacturing company. Atlanta; here in the heart of the South, the Race must take its hat off to you. You have made a place in the sun. You have written your name in the stars. You have seen to the occasion, and set the pace of achievement in so lively a way that not only they run may read the sign of your progress, but they who would keep near you must go like the very likest. Atlanta, we love you, keep up the good work.

Will Bserve 100,000 Visitors. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 14. The largest and finest hotel in the world is located in Atlantic City, by colored people for the ac- commodation of guests of that race will be realigned when Atlantic City's first modern hostelry, on N. Indlining Avenue, just off Atlantic, is com- pleted. For the first hotel Fitzdard will be the first attempt in this country of people of the colored race to pro- duce a hotel in Atlantic City, the large traveling, health and pleasure seeking public among them, a modern hotel. With a tower rising fourteen stories above the ground and with wings seven stories high, spreading out to Indiana. Avenues like giant arms of welcome, the hotel will provide all the ease, comfort and luxury of a city hotel, while at the same time possessing all the quietness and elegance of a resort history. When completed the hotel will provide two hundred bedrooms, all with baths and many en suite. Telephone connections in every room will be a feature of the hotel, while the lobby and exchange, the deck above the cafe and the solarium will provide ample space for guests' accommodation. Besides, there will be accommodations banquet and boon on the seventh door, which will be used for holding small conventions and as an assembly hall; ladies' porches and writing rooms, a pool and billiard room, cafe and grille beauty parlor, barber shop and every convenience in the best hotels in the country. There will also be artisan shops to supply the water for the hotel. The architects' drawing is now on exhibition at Bourne's Pharmacy, plans having been prepared by McLannan and Beckner, of Philadelphia, well known in this resort because of the fact that they channel the Hotel Blanchem, the Tally-Saw and the Fitzgerald Hotel and Development Corporation, in opening its campaign among home people of the race to dispose of the stock, has placed their use value of the stock at a price and in such amounts as one of the officers states "every man, woman and child of the race can afford to help direct this hotel, which not only will be a credit to Altamont City but will stand as the greatest monarch in the company in the business world." The company is seeking out all classes of people of the race in its effort to distribute as widely as possible the company's stock in order to build for the hotel a wide ack-weld patronage. For this reason the campaign is being waged so as to obtain a certain number of stockholders in the many cities close to Altamonte City, to allow them to build for the hotel and it will be possible to offer the public the best accommodation at a minimum price. There are 650,000 people of the colored race within five hours' ride on the railroads from Atlantic City, Hiring in the cities between New York and Washington inclusive, and these with the large number in other cities in New England, New York state, from which to Manhattan field from which to draw patrons of any hotel would be proud. The number of colored visitors who come here each year is estimated at 100,000, the conventions of the race, and the demand that has been made for years make such a hotel a necessity and with the proper kind of managementasures for the project success. The men behind this project are well known in the bush, the professional life and Mr. B. J. Fitzgerald, the president, has built up such a reputation at his café and auditorium that Fitzgerald's Cafe is known nationally, wherever colored people know. Atlantis, City. Associated with Mr. Fitzgerald as officers and directors are the following, local men: Chas, Johnson, Dr. W. E. Brassell Dr. St. Elmo Davenport, Dr. James F. Bourne, R. M. Chase, Dr. A. B.

CHICAGO MAY GET NEXT BAPTIST CONVENTION OF THE JONES FACTION The Associated Negro Press. NEW: ORLEANS, La., Sept. 14.—More than four thousand people listened to a masterly address delivered by President Dr. E. P. Jones at the meeting of the big Baptist Convention last Wednesday. They came from every section of the country. The address lasted more than an hour and covered many of the important questions of the convention. It was loudly amplified. The conclusion of the conference has been mapped out by the convention. It includes a commission of men to wait on President Harding on the Status of the Negro, the future of Africa. Pounce in the South, Lynching and the remedies for its abolishment. The messengers from Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Colorado and South Carolina are here in large numbers and a stubborn contest is being waged as to which state shall entertain the Convention next year. Dr. R. H. Boyd, for many years corresponding secretary of the National Publishing Board will report the Board as having collected more than two hundred twenty thousand dollars and this said he is the largest collection we have ever back. He is easily living in this generation, said Dr. W. R. Beld of Hartford, Conn. Special trains brought to the city messengers from many of the central and south eastern states and while the Convention is meeting at the Coliseum on Napoleon Avenue, erected at a cost of seventeen thousand five hundred dollars by the Louisiana State Convention, from all indications it now appears that the sending capacity will be insufficient. Dr. E. P. Jones, Dr. C. H. Clark, Dr. L. Drane and Dr. B. J. Prince and many of the other leaders from Chicago were joined at Nashville by delegations led by Ted Williams of Kentucky and Cook of Columbia. Dr. E. G. Cole of Crawford of Paducah, E. G. Cole of Louis, M. J. Brehm of Springfield, II. Dr. J. L. Burrell who was chairman on the committee of arrangement, declares that never before have the people of New Orleans irrespective or demonstration, responded or united in making a delegation more welcome and we shall be able although taxed to our capacity to show that New Orleans is hospitable to the core. Dr. S. James R. Prince of Fort-Worth, Texas, as Chairman of the Committee on Finance, Dr. I. M. Hendon is Chairman on the committee on Enrollment. The address of President Jones is clear, so the delegation he was showered with congratulations and all indications point to his reception. He was introduced by Gov. C. H. Franks of Monroe, La. A report of Dr. Jones' address follows: "The world expects from you in this session a program in which will be evidence of your worth as well as work. In your hands have come the opportunity for which the fathers lived and died. I implode and insist that we forget all differences and in this dry where Baptists must surmount the greatest obstacles. I plead that you fundamentally owe your support that the wake of our departure will follow a revival that shall sweep clear the enemies of the denomination. We hand to the world the National Baptist Theological Seminary and Training School at Nashville. Teem, worth two hundred fifty thousand dollars and every dollar has been paid saving twelve thousand and not a shout nor a speech should be heard here until that twelve thousand has been paid. Then our team has been paid saving fifty thousand dollars and when the days of union shall come, and for it we earnestly hope our brethren of the incorporated convention will find, a hearty welcome and a warm fireside where they may sit and know that they at least a home." The Convention adjourned Monday Chicago is likely to be the meeting place next year. Associated Negro Press ASSOCIATE NEGRO MILA, Sept. 14—The Philippine problem now rests on the broad shoulders of Major General Leonard Wood.
