"Will Die of Own Poison" "The objects of those lending this organization cannot be concealed under high-sounding words and the pretense of Americanism. If there is anything on American, it is sleep an effort to perpetuate its life within a society under bourgege. Beneath its constitution, there burn the old, hairred, antipathies and crucibles. "It cost too much to get rid of slavery for us to allow it to reappear under new dress. Freedom from race feeling, from religious, blighty, and intolerance, is too precious to be threatened by such a society. The fears such body of men create can be overcome. The cruelty of their order, the concealment of their methods and objects, the dark designs which can flourish under its shadow, constitute not only a menace to your race but to mine and to every race cultified to citizenship. The terror excited by this revelation of Kli-Kux, no excuse, or justification for it requires that we should make every effort to neutralize its influence. "But we need have no fear that this movement will take any step hold on the American people. Already it has aroused an opposition that it cannot face, and it is refiring before the storm of condemnation that tibes the movement. The people rest assured that America will never tolerate further Ku-Kux peril. They need waste no strength in passion of denunciation. The movement will die of its own poison. It needs only contempt and lofty storm." The St. Louis Argus DR. T.J. MOPPINS SCORES KU-KLUX KLAN IN SERMON Says Civilization Which Must Be Guarded With Mask And Midnight Murder Is Doomed To Failure. Anticipating that Dr. Mopping would have something to say about welfare, especially in reference to the exposure of the Kiu Klux Klan by the Post-Dispatch and the New York World, a large audience fill the great auditorium of Metropolitan last Sunday at the eleven clock service. They were not disappointed. Speaking from the text "Who Knoweth, Whhether Thou Art Christian," Dr. Mopping wrote, "Time As This." He reviewed the great conspiracy of Human that brought on a crisis in the life and existence of the Hebrew Race in the kingdom of Ahasuerus; he also spoke of the evil influence of race hatred; the stressing of the doctrine of might against righteousness and justice; the indifference of the Christian Churches to the glorification evil which has for its object the breaking up of the peace and prosperity of Christian civilization. He referred to the resurrection of the Ku Klux Klan as an expression of a growing hostility against law-binding citizens composed of colored people. His remarks touching "The sudden breakdown of Anglo-Saxon civilization in this age of enlightenment and progress of the gospel of Jesus Christ" as "the amazement of mankind" in the civilization that requires boudry, hood and gown and masked midnight murderers to perpetuate its existence is doom already," said he. "The Christian America has such a spirit of selflessness this time, is what give pain to all liberty-diving citizens of the Christian world." Protestantism will do well to confuse its militant spirit to the stamping out of this growing menace to Christian Civilization. This is a free country and every man, woman and child has a right to worship God in whatever church organization pleashes him." K. K. K. S ARE CLASSED WITH ANARCHISTS BY G. A. R. COMMANDER INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 29 Classifying the Ku Klux Klan with bolseismism and anarchy, Commander William A. Ketchum of the Grand Army of the Republic today told the veterans that they must "set their faces, like flint" against the klan.

Message Enthusiastically Received. Before a large audience at the Young Men's Christian Association, last Sunday afternoon, Congressman L. C. Dyer, representative from the Tweethird Congressional District, de- livers an interesting address. The occasion is the opening of the fall Sunday afternoon meetings, which will be followed by similar meetings each Sunday afternoon during the winter. Mr. Flyer took advantage of the opportunity to give a brief account of his stewardship, and told his hearers what he has been doing in Congress, and what he hoped to do in the future. He cited the fact that he had a Republican house impeachment law, and Senate, a condition which had not obtained before since he had been a member. He called upon his audience to check it up to Congress to pass the anti-Lynchming Bill. He said in part, "I feel highly honored by the presence of this magnificent audience. I am proud of the counsel of the colorado people of not only my district but the state of Colorado, but the country. They have counselled and advised with me in my work as a representative of the people. I know you ask for no special privileges, all you ask as men and women, is an equal justice and equal opportunity to be given all citizens alike. One of the things that has attracted me is that I have been told these times of unemployment, is that not a colored man has tried to destroy factories or property of any kind as has been done by others. I speak particularly of the recent disturbances in West Virginia. As we have gone to war to fight for democracy, it certainly is the duty of all men to see that we have democracy in the body. The colored people has never been questioned, and I am proud of their friendship. Under prejudice in the United States is the most wicked thing under the heavens. The colored people have done nothing to cause the hatred You have done loyal. You have looked at the government for your rights under the constitution of the United States. I went to Chicago as a delegate to the National Convention to see that an anti-lynch-plank was written in the Republican platform, committing the party to support such a law if successful at the polls in November. The Republican party is in power, both in the House and Senate for the first time In order to help relieve the suffering caused by unemployment, a play, 'Broken Bars' will be given at the Olden Theatre Friday evening Oct. 7. under the auspices of the Urban League.

It will be the popular prices in reach of all who want them. for the popular prices in reach of all who may desire to attend. Flavorate.

IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of a true, and gentle heart, Lewis H Stevenson who departed from us one year ago, Sept. 27, 1920. One sad year has taken flight Since a shadow on our life was cast: But memory keeps you always near us. For we loved you, Lewis, oh, so dear. While standing by the bedside in the hours of your life, Watching your silent and patient suffering with your usual pleasant smiles And although we did all within our power. We saw you sinking with thoughts which we knew were so kind and pure; Finally death closed your truthful, kneeling eyes in peace to us for mye: And now you calmly sleep the past; But, oh, with one so kind and true; How hard it was to part with you! Taken from us in the best of your life, Leaving us broken-hearted and alone It's hard to think it's for the best, Your young life's gone and you're at rest, But it seems you must again return to us, For through the weary hours when we are sitting all alone. We are aching and longing for you, Lewis, to come home; For it's so hard to live without you; So often when our thoughts do wander. We visit your silent, lonely grave, Where we know you are in peaceful sleep; But it's hard, oh, so hard To go without you to our home of gloom, were were the sunshine when Where you were the sunshine when there. Most sorrowfully mourned, and lovingly remembered by Mother, Father, Brother and Sisters. IN MEMORIAM In sad and loving memory of my only darling daughter, Josephine Elizabeth Tennell, who passed away one year ago today, Oct. 2, 1920. The month of October is here again. The saddest of the year: You did your part and did it well. God gave me some where the an- gels dwelt; I saw you suffer, I saw you fade away I heard you want for breath I saw upon your dimple cheeks. The fatal sign of death Surrounded by friends I am lonesome In the midst of my pleasure I'm blue: A smile on my face still a headache Aching and longing for you. But not forgetten nor shall you ever Sadly missed by your mother, Emma Brassfield; grand-mother__Lizzie Black; anne, Joseph Brassfield. IN MEMORIAM In loving remembrance of our dear mother and 'sister-in-law, Mrs. Corr. Clark, who departed this life; Sept. 25, 1921. She bid no one a last farewell. She said goodbye in none; Her loving heart had ceased to beat, Before we knew she was gone. Her cherry smile had kindly ways to cocall: She had a kind word for each one. And died beloved by all. Sadly missed by daughter, son and grandson, and sister-in-law. IN MEMORIAM In sweet remembrance of our dear husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather, W. H. Hall Sr. who departed this life one year ago today, September 30, 1920.

In loving memory of my dear age band; Charles Adrawea, who departed this life two years ago, September 29, 1919. You are gone but not forgotten. Nor Dear Charlie, shall you ever be. As long as life and memory lost, shall always remember these dearly missed you. THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, SEPT. 30, 1921 CENSURE BRITISH NEW RICH FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH WILL OBSERVE HARVEST War Profiteers Don't Give to Charity, as They Should, Old Arle- tocracy Charges The English "new rich" have to bear almost as much criticism as the prime minister, and from almost as mixed a source. Their natural enemies are the poor and the new poor, and the jatter element seems to feel strongest on the subject. The artocracy have taken lately to publishing their sentiments about the people who have usurped their place. One of the charges they make is that the new rich don't know how to give, and that as a result hospitals and charitable institutions are being forced to close up. It may not be, say the artocracy dabbles, that the new rich are willfully selfish. But they are not used to money, and so are not used to giving it away. Another allegation, made by a peppery daughter of an impoverished duke, was that the new rich had never anything to make the world beautiful and that as a class they had-produced no great art or literature. Socially the new rich have to bear the brunt of all the changes. An actress said the other day that she never saw before the war the people who now fill the stalls in the taverns. The people with good manners who used to sit in stalls before the war have disappeared and their successors lack breeding. One day somebody ate oranges in the stalls and the feeling of exhaustion in an aristocratic circles was strong for weeks. Extremes in styles are also blamed on the women of the profiteer class, who are declared by their enemies to have learned the art of dressing in their original homes in the East end of London.—Mary Henke in Los Angeles Express. IF SHE COULD HAVE KNOWN! Detroit Girl Probably Will Always Feel That Fate Has Been Most Unkind to Her. Some women rush into marriage, but others give thought to what the economic experts say a man should be earning and have in the bank before taking into himself a wife. Few will question that the latter course is the sensible one, observes the Providence Journal. But it has its exceptions, like everything else. One of the most romantic of them, perhaps, is contained in a recent news dispatch from Detroit, telling how an engine room worker in one of the city hotels at 30 cents an hour was spurned by the girl of his dreams because she was sure that he would never be able to support her. In less than a week after the spurning the man received a message from a Toledo attorney saying that he was one of three heirs to a $15,000,000 estate in California. Fiction, which revels in the happy ending, would have had the lucky one repeat his offer of marriage and meet with quick and maybe tearful acceptance, and then would have given us a pretty word picture of the smiling couple whirling westward on a train de luxe. But truth is cold and exact. The engine-room worker simply said goodbye to the girl who had rejected him and went to lay claim to his inheritance-alone. Was this decision correct? And will the young woman, if her hand is sought again by some humble but steady workman, consider his earning capacity above his desire to make her his helpmate? Any one in search of a first aid to conversation, may use these questions without asking for the copyright. Rush to Stake Gold Claims. It is reported that gold hunters are swarming over the country drained by the Wapsie river. New Brunswick, and panning the sands of the stream in search of the yellow metal. The prospectors are looking for the Gilbertson lode. The story is told how Gilbertson made a canoe trip up the river some sixty years ago, and while making camp for the night came across a large body of gold-bearing ore. Not knowing what it was, he took home a large piece to use as a door weight. Some time later a geologist, visiting Gilbertson, identified the ore, and a mad rush to stake claims along the Wapsie river ensued. Gilbertson refused to tell where he found the ore. Later he became insane, and died without revealing the secret. This season a systematic search is being made. Students in Occidental Schools. If it is estimated that nearly nine thousand Chinese are studying abroad, of whom five thousand are in Japan, two thousand in France, fourteen hundred in the United States, four hundred in England, and the others distributed throughout Europe. Of the twenty-five hundred Japanese students abroad, only three hundred are in England. There are three hundred Filipino students in the United States and thirty in Japan. One thousand Indian students are in England. Queen Alexandra is Poor. The most esteem member of the British royal family today is Queen Alexandra. Her majesty's allowance from the state is $250,000 a year, but that falls far below what it costs her to maintain Marlborough house and Sandringham. It is said that Queen Alexandra today is only just able, although living in comparative retirement, to make both gifts meet and that she could not do but for her private resources, which are by no means large.

These girls form the chorus in Boisy D. Legge's "Bandana Girls," a musical comedy company, but in this case the chorus is the biggest part of the show, Hattie V. Snow is the magnetic center of attraction. Her dancing is a whirlwind of action, filled with grace and vivacity. Among the song and dance numbers she offers, assisted by the other girls are "Scratching the Gravel," "Nyccapated Melody May," "Cruel Papa," and an oriental dance in costume. All are artistic and entertaining. The production is called "Syncopated Joe From Idaho" and has to do with a couple of he-individuals, with too much money, getting into a harem, presided over by Bolsy D. Legge. The invaders, who furnish the comedy for the show are Freddie Jones and Ham Douglass. They succeed in keeping the audience in good humor by their whimsical ways. Incidentally, Lucy Douglass adds to the entertaining with a couple of jazz blues; Jones has a comic song and eccentric dance, also team back with the Vocalist, who could snare and cover big "Selling the Wires" and "Mishing" are two lively skies and the show closes with the entire company in "The Florida Dip," a novelty in song, dance and comedy. The engagement closes Sunday night. NEXT WEEK James' Crescent Players will be the attraction, for one week... at the Booker Washington Theatre, beginning Monday. This set of performers have not been seen here for many months, but is said to be one of the best musical comedy companies on the road. Most theatre-goers will be pleased to learn that Drake and Walker's "Bombay Girls" are booked to open at the Booker Washington Monday October 10. Mysterious Visitor Will Reign At 3rd Annual Ball.

"The Old Nest" and "The Whistle" Features Al Jeal-a-mere "The Old Nest" hulled by critics as the most satisfying all-American picture yet produced, will be presented at the Jeal-a-mere Theatre three days: Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. The theme that of a mother who sees her six children leave her, one by one, is common to American families. All the purgatory of feeling that these leave- taking anmsue in real-life have been caught on the screen. All the eyes and eyes connected with raising a family have been dramatized. Each of the children grow to manhood or wom- hood with its own individual in- terest, then leaves the old man to follow the call of his destiny. Only they BOOKER WASHINGTON COMET G.

W. B. Ziff Co,, 608 South. Dearborn St., Chicago, “IIL _' On Tuesday of this week, we saw a group of colored men Uniformed as police officers of this city. This is_a condition that has been talked of for the past twenty five years, .but, like the fleeing shadow, it has kept just out ‘of our reach. a There -is a reason for this denial of the Colored. citizens this right during all these years.in the fourth. largest city in the United States. A careful study of the situation will no -doubt show that the principal fault lay in our own leadership, In''the past, these who have had a voice, ‘in. polties. have ‘used that voice for themselves and -the'fellow in whom they were ‘interested. ‘They were--what-miiy~ be-ealled—-blindleaders—-who could see guly their bread and butter,,while the Race as a whole would suffer. Bit thank God, that afew leadership has come on the scene, A leadership that’ places the, advancement. of the Race aboye self, and that is the reason why «you see the Negro in uniform, us law enforcement officers. in this city to- day. e It will be remembered that it was the Citizens Liberty League that first made the move'to get the Negroes out cf the “same old rut,” by declaring among other things for uniform police. This was followed by a similar declaration -by the Missoari Negro Republican League Club and was supported by the new leadership in that organization. Thus we have an: dbject les, som, before us. av The object lesson in this case is, though the members of the. Citizens Liberty League and those of the Republican League Club differed in their support of certain, captlidates for offite, the spirit of the new leadership has enablyd us to work together for some of the big things for the yenéral welfare of the Race. “= Ibis quite encouraging to tis to see this new spirit taking hold on these men who are. fast assuming’ the leadership among our people. As the intelligent and: the thoughtful take the lead there will be less jealousies ang/ less bickering among’ us. ‘The only regret is that There: ate still a few among us who find-it convenient to hold a jobby bowing-and scraping with hat in hand. “They still think“that’ “yes sir me-to-boss,” is the only way to get along in thig large world. The object lesson ag just pictured, is only a Small begin- ning of what our eyed shail’ behold in this city and state, if we As we listened to the logic and’ eloquence of Hon. Luke Hart a few”nights agé as he denounced the Ku-Klux-Klan ‘as traitors, to the flag, we thought of his position as a law-maker of thya ity. We were wondering if-hggwas sincere in his de- punefation of the Klan,-and if so, woul’Mr. Hart have the cour- ‘age to-introduce a resolution in the Board of Aldermen, con- demning the Ku-Klux-Klan. ‘The assembling of the Ku-Klux-Klan in other cities has been declared an unlawful. assemblage. Why. can't Mr. Hart with his ability, power and’ intluence do as much in St. Louis? The President: of the Board of Aldermen is a Jey. The mayor-is opposed to the existence of the Klan‘in' the City, (so he says(?) and -most every, nationality on the Board, except the Negro, so everything is in your favor. Mr. Hart, will you act? To be classed as loyal to one’s government is a thing to be desired by alfight thinking people. But somehow, we can’t but feel thaj<ome of our “good friends” of the white race who address. gatherings —-work~our, oyalty"~ over-time.. These speaket© usually refer-te the “black mammy,” and-the-“faith- ful-slaves.""—We-have-heard-so: much"ofthat kind” of talk until we are beginning ‘to think its propaganda to instill in us the spirit of our forefathers, wha were slaves. : ‘Strange as ‘it may appear, we can truthfully state; that we have never heard one of these “friends” speak praiseworthy of any movement among: the Negroes, which has for its: object the emancipation of the Race politically. They: usually tell us we «are entitled to those things, hut they. always get in our way that we might not get them. ¢ .

White Says The Earnestness Created, If Properly Used And Directed, Will Bring About The Emancipation Of The Darker Races From Exploitation On Account Of Color The following is the first of a series of three Articles to be published by The Argus on the Pan-African Conference held in London, Brussels and Paris, attended by delegates from thirty countries in all parts of the world. The second article will be published next week. PART TWO GREAT GROWTH CONSCIOUSNESS PAN-AMERICA Walter F. White Says The E- erly Used And Direct The Emancipation Races From On Account The following is the first of a set by The Argue on the Pan-African Con- Pria, attented by delegates from this The second article will be published ne By WALTER Copyrighted by Associated Negro Press LONDON, LOND, Sept. 28.—So many persons from all parts of the world attended the Second Pan-African Congress, so many important matters were discussed, so much valuable information was brought forth regarding the potential problems in the world, so much of real value was done towards forming a bond of sympathy and mutual helpfulness, that it is difficult to write of them in a very sketchy way. I shall attempt to give a general view of the three conferences held in London, Brussels and Paris, touching as many of the high spots as possible that the reader may gain as far as possible an ediline idea of the vast scope of the Congress and its vital importance to the welfare of colored people throughout the world and especially to the twelve million colored people of the United States. The Congress was a great success. At the fourteen sessions in the three countries were delegates and representatives from thirty countries in all parts of the world. They came from the United States, England, France, Belgium, British Guiana, the French Congo, Nigeria, South Africa, Senegal, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Abssilhina, Portugal, Morocco, Spain, Denmark, Liberia, French Guinea, Trinidad, and East Africa. Throughout the sessions, there was an eager earnestness which marked the tremendous growth of racial consciousness, that properly used and directed, will bring about the emancipation of the darker races from exploitation, disfranchisement, tracing and displacement of those bases based on race. With but a few exceptions all of the delegates seemed eager to do all that is possible to unite in one great international body to accomplish these things, realizing that as long as a colored man can be lynched in the United States, disfranchisement, African or denied industrial and economic opportunity in Europe that no colored man in any part of the world is safe. Dr DuBois Speaks The first mission in London on Saturday afternoon, August 22, was given the unanimous ratification of segregation in West and South Africa. Dr. Abindor of London, president of the African Progress Union, in his opening remarks outlined the purpose of the Congress and in turn Dr. DuBois to the Advocate. Dr. DuBois gave a remarkably clear and able presentation of the problems facing Africans and persons of African descent throughout the continent, beginning of the movement to make the continent of Africans from the time in 1900, when a group of men, including the late Bateh on Alexander Walters, and the late Coleridge Taylor, met in London; the races congress in London in 1911 and the first Pan-African Congress held in Paris in 1910. He told of the difficulties of organizing the congress and of the contraction of the various governments including the United Nations, the United States, and the United Kingdom, primes throughout the world must write or also be swallowed up by the period of postindependence, through which the world was now new, he said particular emphasis on the problems of land, economic and political disabilities which must be met by three groups, outlining the methods by which the congress must stock in the Peter C. J. Thomas, from West Africa, a colored man of intelligence and education who told graphically of the method which the British inter- ald government were taking land from the natives by enforcing arbitrary segregation laws passed during the administration of Lord Milner, as head of the colonial office of Great Britain, immining that Negroes were carriers of the disease, and that they have been forced to give up all land within a radius of a half mile of the residence of any white person, although in many cases the natives and their ancestors had owned the land for many hundreds of years. Following Mr. Thomas other Africans, bob native and descendants of Africans, spoke on this new danger. The number included Dr. Charbogle, Dr. Alchior, Mr. Tobias of the United States, and others. Much was gained by this new information directly from the continent, and the American delegates especially felt a new determination to not only conquered with the Negro in America but with the Negro throughout the world. The Saturday evening session was given over to the discussion of the Negro problem of the United States. Both sides of the story were tol. Dr. Jernagin presided in his usual effective and forceful manner. The Negro problem was the story told of the great work of the Bishops of the United States, and of the National Race Congress; Mr. Henry Hunt of Georgia; Miss Fausset who spokes of his activities of the colored women of America; Dr. Butter who told of the work of the Masons; Mr. Hutto of the Bishops of Pythias; Mrs. Fetl Order; Lord Emmanuel Star; Dr. A. Wilmer; William H. McKinley; Chicago; Mr. Nelson of New York; while the writer told of lynchings in the United States. On Monday at Ten O'clock the land question in Africa was taken up by the Congress. Dr. Norman Leys, a well known English authority on African who has spent sixteen years of his life in that continent, read a paper on the subject with remarkable clearness, the present situation of the native with regard to the methods by which he is being deprived of his land. Only in Wes Africa does the native yet retain title to his land. Dr. Leys paper is too long to give much of it in what must necessarily be a short answer. It is certain that seldom has the truth ever been told regarding exploitation of African natives as was done by Dr. Leys. Trickery and Robbery Following Dr. Leys, the Rev. Mr. Marks of Sierra Leone told of conditions in his country after which Dr. DuBois read a paper prepared by a South African who had been requested permission to attend the Congress. This paper was one of the most sathrific indictments of British misrule in South Africa, the story of the enquiry was inked; the open robbery of the natives was given in so vivid a fashion that even the American delegates felt that the South of Africa and the South of the United States had much in common. Other speakers followed who not only told of other grievances, but concurred that the Pan-African Congress could work to improve the lot of the man of color in countries where he could not fight for improvement himself. The afternoon session was given over to a discussion of the problems of the colored people of the British West Indies. The speakers included a newspaper office from Grenada, a lawyer from British Guinea, Mrs. Florence Kelley of New York and others. At the closing session of the London meetings, resolutions were adopted (these will be given in full in the account of the Paris sessions) and definite methods of making the Congress an actively functioning body representative of the colored people in the British Empire, including the smokers including Mr. Varna from East Africa, Mrs. Davis from South Africa, Mr. Taylor from West Africa, and a representative from Algiers. Three Things Accomplished At these session, three things were accomplished. Personal acquaintances were formed, knowledge of the problems of others was gained, and the formation of an African international body was actively begun. In the minds of the participants, the problems of the colored races of the world could not and would not be solved by bombard and oratory, but only through solar, serious and unceasing work to overcome first, the difficult obstacle upon the combining of all Africans and persons of African descent throughout the world together with their genuine friends of other races in any compact body for the purpose of accomplishing which comes them to suffer raids.

PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS MANIFESTO AFFIRMS THE EQUALITY OF ALL RACES PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS MANIFESTO AFFIRMS THE EQUALITY OF ALL RACES The Associated Negro Press - NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 28 - The Nation announces the first American publication of the manifesto of the Pan-African Congress in London. Addressed "To the World," the manifesto affirms the absolute equality of races as the foundation of world peace and human advancement. "The establishment of political institution among suppressed peoples and protests against the commercial exploitation of the Negro. "The bodies, minds, and souls of Fiji and Congo, is declared, "are judged almost solely by the quotations on the Course. The day of such world organizations past, the present and future, says some to all men as men and not merely as material an labor." The manifesto demands for suppressed races, recognition, education, self-government and freedom of culture, and "The ancient common ownership of the land and its natural fruits." The future of Africa, it says, should be chosen by two or three powers, with internal racial equality, or "the rise of a great black African State—autonomous and sovereign." The entire text of this stirring document appears in The Nation dated September 28. CONGRESS IS NOW AFTER THE GRASS HOPPERS The Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. Sept. 28 — The nation's grasshoppers, are in for a hard time if Congress creates a bill introduced by Representative Raker of California, which would authorize $20,000 to eliminate the hoppers. Mr. $50,000 to kill plants poisonous to live stock and $150,000 to destroy insects which kill trees. "All of this is very well," declared a "philosopher of folly," as he was writing for his street car at the corner of Fourteenth and You streets, "but what are they doing on the hill? What are they doing on the hill? Just into the homes of Colored citizens, and take their occupants out and string them up to trees?" "I was just wondering," he continued, "whether the Congressman desires to save the trees from other insects, so here will be enough trees to go around." "We have a great set of people in this country, who get excited over almost anything but the fundamental things in the constitution of the United States, the protection of life and property. "There is stewt upon stew" about bootleggers, and (thanksgiving of dollars) are spent monthly to keep people from getting a little slip, which may be all they need in the twinkling of an eye, can get registrants of troops in West Virginia to stop a mines' urinating and the troubles of Negro citizens are laughed at and brushed aside by "an Indian man of the hand" of the Wakiki Warbler. "It's a long line. Daf has no turning." "Falic ensangu," said his ander, and ST. LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, SEPT. 30, 1921 THE URBAN LEAGUE ANNUAL CONFERENCE Special to the Argus. CHICAGO, IL. Sept. 27—Much interest centers around the plan of the Urban League to discuss Unemployment among Negroes at its Conference in Chicago, October 19th to 22nd. Phil H. Brown, Commissioner of Conciliation of the United States Department of Labor will discuss the subject from the national view point. He will present his views on the issues and where it is most presentable. William H. Conners, Secretary of the Cleveland Branch of the Urban League, and John C. Daney, Executive Secretary of the Detroit Urban League who have, had considerable experience in the past year in handling these matters in their respective communities. They will outline the programs which have been conducted there to create temporary or permanent and to give human men and to families. Secretary James J. Day of the Department of Labor is expected. George W. Buckner, Executive Secretary of the St. Louis Urban League who has been laboring in Tulsa, Oklahoma to organize a program of rehabilitation in which white and colored people will co-operate and work together for the good of the community, will outline his accomplishments to date and Miss Mary McDowell, Head Worker of the University League, will coordinate in discussion of race relations and co-operation in inter-racial matters. The morning and afternoon meetings will be in the form of round table discussions in which all in attendance will be urged to participate. The Negro and organized labor and the League's work in Health, Housing, Recreation and Industrial Welfare will also be discussed. Engleze Klineke Jones, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League, 137 East 23rd Street, New York City and 137 East 24th Street, Executive Secretary, Chicago, Urban League, 3032 South Wabash Avenue, Chicago, IL, are anxious to hear from persons who are interested in the problems of the race and in social service work and who may be planning to attend the conference. HOWARD UNIVERSITY AT WASHINGTON. D. C. There are some people who look as kance at evening academic work; but whatever prejudice has existed up to the present against it seems due in part to ease consciousness of the individual as well as to the supposedly loose standards of the evening schools. With the general spread of democratic ideas and the application of the same requirements and standards to both day and evening work, this prejudice is dying out and the evening school is coming into its own as a powerful factor in the development of our greatest colleges and universities now offer evening work with full credit toward the usual degrees. Among these institutions are the University of Chicago; the Carnegie Institute of Technology; the College of the City of New York; the John Hopkins University; the University of Pittsburgh and Howard University. The U. S. Bureau of Education is now engaged in making a survey of the present status of evening instruction, the immediate supervision of the work being in the hands of Dr. Frederick B. Robinson, Dean of College of the City of New York and Professor Clarion "one of the great services which can be rendered the nation through education will be the establishment of a thoroughly coordinated evening instruction, which will enable a person who drops his education by day to continue that education at night." The work of the evening classes at Howard University has thus far been quite satisfactory and successful. Courses have been taken by school teachers, school principals, government employees, lawyers, college graduates, and students pursuing the regular four year course leading to the baccalaureate degree; others are merely becoming acquainted with some particular subject or keeping in touch with the academic life for purposes of general culture; while still others are defiling a special preparation which they must have in order to qualify for some specific position. The work has been regular and 'thorough, the standards high, and the students and instructors enthusiastic. Evening classes are unified and undifferentiated as clear and distinct extension of the usefulness and influence of the university. It is very likely that this movement will soon be followed and complemented by another with similar potentialities for good for the establishment of a summer school at Howard University, for collegiate instruction now seems practically assured for next year. WILBERFORCE HAS HEAVY ENHANCEMENT AT OPENING WILBERFORCE: Ohio, Sept. 28—"And we have come to a new year," there were the wonderful John Dr. T. J. Goodall To Speak At The First Baptist Church Dr. T.

REPUBLICANS MAY LOSE THREE FOURTHS OF NEGRO VOTE IN NEXT ELECTION A few words of encouragement were given by the President Gregg, scripture lesson was read by Rey, Clark, prayer by Dr. Jackson, vocal solo by Miss Hammonds, the new teacher in music. Addresses were given by Dean G. H. Jones, Vice President, Supt. W. Berry, Mr. Richard of the occasion, the president of the Academy Department, Mr. Washington, Dean of Women, and other addresses were also made all of which were the aim of the speaker to say a word of encouragement. The address by Dr. Johnson, President of the C. N. and L. Board was the same old spirit of the heart to heart talks to the students, which he says are the pride of his heart. The enrollment for the day, kept Secretary Jenkins, and Secretary Carrion, helps the students adjust themselves to their job of the opening at Wilberforce this year was one of the greatest in the history of the school. Th students are full of pop and life. They all seem to have the old Wilberforce spirit even the new students seem to get the feeling right at the start, and sing the old "Rah!" "Rah!" again Wilberforce of old. On the whole the Wilberforce spirit seems to have gotten into everyone. FUND BEING RAISE9 TO DEFEND NEGRO CHARGED WITH KILLING ORGANIST The Associated Negro Press NEWARK, N. J. Sept. 21—Mrs. A. V. Jefferson, 91 William street, Newark, N. J. is giving the country a most glowing example of unselfish humanitarian effort. Mrs. Jefferson has been taking a special interest in the case of George Washington Knight, of Perth Amboy, N. J. under sentence of death charged with killing white-woman, an organist of a lending church in this state. Attorney Isaac Nutter of Atlantic City, became interested in the case, and was able to present sufficient facts before Gov. Edwards to cause the governor to issue a stay of execution. The matter comes up for hearing in a few weeks, and through Mrs. Jefferson, funds are being raised to pay for the necessary expense of the new legal effort. This does not include attorney fees, according to Mr. Nutter, who has shared that he is not worried about taking the young man's life, being to give the young man justice. A large number of women throughout New Jersey have interested themselves in helping to raise the necessary minds. Recently a "Baby show" was given here with good results. "Because of the spirit of Gov. Edwards in endeavoring to give the young man justice, I think that we should do our part. We will be glad to have assistance from law-abiding people everywhere," stated Mrs. Jefferson.

REPUBLICANS MAY LOSE THREE FOURTHS OF NEGRO VOTE IN NEXT ELECTION Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill., Sept. 28—"Throughout the entire west, there is a great disappointment, in the Republican Administration. Everywhere I went the Colored people wanted to know, what is the matter with President Hardin?" Thus spoke Col. John R. Marshall, connected with the Illinois prison board, and a former colonel of the famous Illinois Eighth regiment. Col. Marshall had just returned from a tour through the West that took him to the cast, and all of the principal cities on the coast. To the Associated Negro Press representative he stated that the same condition exists everywhere. "What do you think ought 'to be done. Colonel?' asked the interviewer. "Every Republican United States Senator should be informed, directly of conditions, and urged to take the matter up with President Harding. Then there should be a national manpower officers, and a permanent committee of officers each state should be formed, to make national political committees, and this committee should work for the establishment of political justice. "There can be no winking at present conditions. If the Republican National Administration does not hesitate itself and change its policy towards Colored Americans, they will lose three fourths of the votes in the election of 1922. I can see nothing different." Colonel Marshall on Patronage "In the scatter of patronage, there are no places that could be offered that will satisfy the Colored people if there is not a change of southern votes count, are with the south in this matter. Thus far there have been no positions, just jobs offered." Incidentally, Col. Marshall is among those who was offered a "job" in the Agricultural Department, at a salary of $2,500 a year, to which the Colonel replied a very emphatic, but courteous military "No" Why go to Europe to "pain" African?

Y., Sept. 28—The Frederick Douglass Home in Anacostia, destined to be the great shrine of Colored Americans, as M. Vernon, the home of George Washington, is to the country at large, will soon be the dedicated, probably with the President of the United States, as a shipper on program, according to Mrs. Mary R. Tanner, who is in that charge of the interests of the home. In a special statement, directed particularly to the women of the race throne the country, who have assumed the responsibility of complete restoration of the famous estate, Mrs. Talbert says: "The dedication of our Douglass Home will occur the Saturday following the biennial meeting at Richmond, where the hope is have the President of the United States and other prominent men and women present. "Contracts, have been let for the complete restoration of the Hotel," and I have assumed the indebedness which the contract calls for, believing that the club women will rally in this great effort for the complete restoration. "Will every state president have her corresponding secretary or recording secretary send to me a complete up to date roster of clubs ending August 31, 1821, containing names and addresses of both presidents and secretaries of clubs. While this will entail some work secretaries, the greater task falls upon me." "I want every club affiliated with our National to have part in the restoration of the Douglass Home. I am not doing his thing half way, but expect to have every part of the house and gorunds, restored including the drive way so that our National headquarters may be worthy of us as a great National body. "When you consider that this is the first great effort of any organized body of Negroes to perpetuate any landmark belonging to a colored person, save the Harriet Tubman Home, we should deeply appreciate what it send relics in the form of battle flags, means. Later on I will ask you to slave bills of sale, or anything else that is contributive toward the blast to the Negroes in America. We shall have the Harriet Fame on the walls of which will hang the portraits of famous men and women. "These pictures will be placed in the Hall of Fame by vote of the National Biennial. In a word let this be our great National Museum where white and black may come to study the history of the Negro Race in America."

(By the Associated Negro Press) There is much talk about the "Negro groes p lance. What t place? Our place in the body politic; our place in the affairs of the american nation? Is that what they are talking about? Well, now let's see about that. In the "first place," which is a mighty fine line to begin, it is declared in Holy Writ that "the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof, the world and they that dwell therein, for he has founded ibupon the seas, and established it upon the floods." So then, since we know to Whom all this "how ground of sorrow" belongs, "is proceed" by the same Authority, for he has founded ibupon the seas, and established it upon the floods. "Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in his holy place? That's something that we certainly wish to know about, and the answer follows the question: "He that hath clear hands and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul into falsehood, and hath not sworn deceitfully." Now, we are making progress. Then, shall we, children of the Most High, loyal followers of the "Meek and Lovely," Nagarine, have our place defined for us by the illegitimate followers of human justice, by the debauchers of patriotic principles? Shall our place be defined by the decrees of God, and by the Constitution of the United States, or by the blasphemers and rebels who deny God the right to rule? Shall our place be defined by those who are holding public office by the assassination of our rights as American citizens? Shall our place be defined by the low minded daily newspapers of the land, and their narrow, bigoted editors, who place their prejudice and ignorance where belong justice and honor? Shall our place be defined by any man or set of men, who by their very words and deeds in dealing with their fellowmen, show their unfitness for the position they assume? No, a thousand times. No! Our place shall be defined, now and forever, by the eternal verities! Our place shall be defined by the laws of God and our country. We may be denied our place, for a season, by sheer force of power, but never by the decrees of absolute justice. Our place shall be defined by the sacred blood of Crispus Attucks, and those who followed after him in the war of the Revolution; by the noble army of black patriots in the War of the Revolution, the 200,000 valiant soldiers in blue, during the Civil War, men who offered their lives for the flag in 1808; by the 400,000 American Negro soldiers in the great World War, who left their all behind, and marched to the music of the "National Emblem," in defense of the Flag and NEWS ITEMS IN BRIEF Associated Negro Press SAVANNAH, Ga., Sept. 28—Tom Barren, a Negro in an attempt, last Tuesday night, to save two horses which had fallen into the Ogeeche canal, was drowned, becoming entangled in the ropes and garing upon the animals. Both horses were saved. Associated Negro Press ATLANTA, Ga., Sept. 28—Charged with shooting at a bulb-collector stirring an alteration involving 25 cents, Daisy Cooks, a Colored woman of 44 Rhodes St., was Tuesday afternoon held in a cell at police headquarters in default of $1000 bond. The arrest was male at the woman's house following charges preferred by the collector, W. G. Waggoner, of College Park. Waggoner sanged that in August he sold the woman a bottle of perfume talent, at $1, and collected 50 cents. Two weeks ago, he said he collected 25 cents more, and on Tuesday afternoon had gone to the woman's house to get the remainder. The argument which followed, Poise Waggoner and Waggoner himself, leaked at the woman. She taunted a pistol and fired at the collector, who thereupon left the house. Waggoner was released on copy of charges alleging disorderly conduct. The Associated Negro Press. COLUMBUS, La., Sept. 28—Gillom Holmes, a Colored man, arrested last Thursday on a charge of murdering Sidney Manheim, station agent here, was banged by a mob at 11 o'clock tonight, the body then being riddled with bullets and set aler.

It shall, be and must be, as wide as the universe, as high as heaven, and as deep as eternity! "God is no respector of persons." DR. WILLIAM PICKENS (By The Associated Negro Press) The people of our group are passing through a tremendous crisis. In such a time the people look with great eagerness for those who have the ability, and the selflessness, to express the yearnings of their soul. There is much being said here and there, and thither, but there are few who seem able to get the logic and punch in what they say, with sufficient emphasis to make it "go over," to use a newspaper and theatrical expression, or, Writer Katherine, a contributing writer of The Association of Negroes in a way that braces, astonishes and satisfies, is hitting constantly the bull's eye of public opinion. He has a marvelous gift, for saying things that stick and make one think. The sting of his brutal frankness is softened by the power of his reasoning and the absolute fairness of his conclusions. Hundreds of people from every section of the country are writing him, and us, praising his magnificent presentation of current problems of the people. Dean Pickens, contrary to the methods of some literary folk, never "toots his horn" about himself. He will be a most surprised man, to read these lines, but he deserves every word of the utterances, and more. He stands, absolutely, without a peer, in the present day in his unselfish sincerity of purpose in serving the cause of Colored Americans, by the power of the Negro Press are quite apart from the splendid work he is doing for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a field in which there is simple opportunity for fine work, and which he is greatly helping by his vigorous activities. Dr. Pleckens is a most valuable man in this period of our history, and it is a source of satisfaction to us, we are sure must be to help to know what happens in our lives, whom we are, appreciated by the people whom he is serving. More power to Dr. William Pickens! in cultivation and strong recommendation to Gov. Parker that laws to stimulate cotton warehouse building in Louisiana be enacted, were the outstanding points covered Tuesday in resolutions adopted by the Louisiana division of the American Association in session in this city in connection with the meeting of the Interstate Farm Congress.

"Oh, I wish I had something to read. I wish I had something to read," was the message which some querrtmaster was blinking away almostly the other right when: "What do you like—romance, love, mystery, adventure or detective stories?" came the barely discernible twinkle from the eleventh floor window of a big apartment house in the 90s. "Romance," flashed back the gob, "Real stuff." And then the first chapter of a wonderful romance was blinked on, and the second chapter was being enjoyed when the mist and fog descended on the river. "Sorry, but can't read any longer tonight," blinked the gob, who already had met the young woman of the blinker romance, which is taking a sericus turn. "You wait and see," predicts one young lady. who is intercepting the messages, each night. "Those messages are endcaring and, oh, well, what girl wouldn't enjoy being courted so romantically?" EASY WAY TO GET MONEY Indianapolis Youngster Preferred Good Time at Lawn Fete to Possession of Two Teeth. This young man of eight years has been suffering the loss of his first teeth, and his mother has had him in the dentist chair several times. As the teeth show an inclination to part company with the boy, the dentist's bill is running up. Until last week the boy positively refused to permit his mother to pull his teeth. She told him finally that he could pull them and she would give him 50 cents for each one. He thought it over and decided to pull two loose ones himself. It was easy and he got $1. A lawn fete was to be given in the neighborhood the other night, and the boy wished to go. The day-before the affair was scheduled he brought four teeth to his mother and demanded $2. His mother was shocked, examined the teeth and found they were sound and would have lasted a long time. The youngster said he needed the money, as he expected to attend the lawn fete. He got it—Indianapolis News. Mud Pie Census Doctor Russell, who tells us that in a spoonful of good arable land there are more living organisms than there are people in the United Kingdom, has probably not wasted his time making an accurate count, but there is no doubt he is well within the mark, observes, the London Chronicle. A French bacteriologist recently caught his little son playing with a mud pile, and, borrowing a small portion of the mixture, carefully analyzed it in his laboratory. He found it teeming with microbes, but only took a census of the harmful varieties. He found when he had finished his labor that the little bit of the "pie" he dealt with contained the following germs: Diphtheria, 1,800,000; measles, 2,450,000; smallpox, 900,000; lockjaw, 3,600,000; dysentery, 900,000; pneumonia, 505,000; tuberculosis, 620,000. And the total of nearly 11 million was only a percentage of the organisms in the delicacy.

DEMOCRATIC VICTORY PREDICTED IN VIRGINIA Republicans Expected To Be Routed At Every Quarter Because Of Barring Negroes By Associated Negro Press LYNCHBURG, Va., Sept. 21. The outstanding phases of the political campaign in Virginia during the week chairman Flood's prediction of a big storm in the Democratic ticket at the November election; the firing of the first gun of the attack at Lexington by Col. H. W. Anderson, republican nominee for Governor; completion of the full Negro ticket for Chairman Flood; to state senator E. Lee Trinkle to take the stump; behalf of the ticket which he heads. In his speech at Lexington, Col. Anderson made an attack on the democratic party, which he characterized a "political and economic tyranny," holding the republican party up as the only government of the restoration of a free government in Iowa. He declared that the essential issues of the campaign are not political but that the real question is one of the management of affairs in Virginia. He asserted that reforms can not be hoped the democrats and that the "political duties permits no independence and no one can be from its orders and no one can be in office on the democratic ticket except with the support of the machine." Colonel Anderson said the barring of Negroes from the Republican State Convention at Norfolk was in accord with the Constitution of the United States, and that it removes the race question from politics or political agitation in the State. The Negro Republicans have completed their full state ticket, authorizing Joseph Pollar, who ran against Senator Carter Glass last year, to be in touch with leading Negroes in all sections of the nation, to call a conference in Washington simultaneously with the resembling of Congress, to place before such a conference the case of the Virginia Negro Republicans. They assert that they have been "thrown overboard by the white Republicans" and want to "know just where they are" The Lily Blacks" assert they will poll larger, vote than the "Lily Winter" Republicans. Chairman Flood predicts that the Trinkle will carry the State by the largest majority any candidate has had since the Civil War. He declares the Republicans are to be routed at every level.

Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago). © (B. L. Western-Newpaper Union.) LESSON FOR OCTOBER 2 PAUL IN CORINTH. LESSON TITLE - Acts 13:1-2 GOLDEN TEXT - Acts 13:1-2 know anything among you, save Jesus. Christ, and him crucified - I Cor. 2:2. REFERENCE MATERIAL - I Cor. 2:1-4. PRIMARY TOPIC - Textmaking and Teaching. JUNIOR TOPIC - Paul Working and INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC - Teaching and Textmaking in Corinth. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC - Paul in a Commercial Center. The establishment of the church at Corinth is an example of missionary endeavor for all ages. The method employed, which resulted in success then, will result in success now. I. The True Missionary Method (vv. 1-3). Paul came to Corinth a stranger in a strange city. He did not have an advance agent to do his advertising; neither did he have his photograph put in the daily paper with sensational announcements, upon his arrival in Corinth. He did not have a trained singer with him; neither did he have his salary guaranteed. His method in gaining a foothold in Corinth was as follows: 1. Finding a home (v. 2). This he found with Aquila and Priacela. Laws who were recently expelled from Home by the cruel eldest of Claudius. Being Jews, he found natural affinity with them. 2. He toiled for his daily bread (v. 3). He was of the same craft with them, being tennakake. Every child among the Jews was taught some trade by means of which he could gain a livelihood should occasion require. One of the rabbis said that he who failed to teach his boy a trade taught him to steal. 11. Preaching in the Synagogue at Corinth (v. 4.8) 1. Though compelled to toll for a living while getting a footfall in Corinth, he did not lose sight of his main work (v. 4). He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, persuading the Jews and Greeks. 2. His activity was increased when Silas and Timothy came (v. 5). This resulted from three causes: (1) They brought good news from the church of Thessalonica (1 Thess. 3:6). To hear of the steadfastness of those who had conceived Christ under our ministry puts new vigor into our labors. (2) They brought peculiary gifts from the Macedonian churches (Philip. 4:15; II Cor. 11:9). Being relieved from the necessity of toil for a living, they now could devote more time and energy to the preaching of the gospel. (3) Silas and Timothy became assistants to Paul in the work, thereby strengthening his hands so as to enable him to accentuate his efforts. (4) Paul opposed (v. 6). His increased activity was met with increased opposition. This can always be expected. 4. Paul announces his purpose to turn to the Gentiles (v. 6). Because of their blasphemy and opposition he ceased to work among the Jews. There is a time when good judgment causes one to abandon work where efforts have been fruitless, but it is difficult to know just when to do it. 5. He did not go far away (v. 7). He remained sufficiently near that those whose hearts God touched could easily find him. It is likewise true that although Christ is obliged to depart from the soul that refuses Him entrance, He lingers with yearning love around that heart. 6. His success (v. 8). Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, was converted. Perhaps the severity of his action in turning away from them moved Crispus to action. 111. Paul's Vision (vy. B-11). "His experiences since coming to Europe were very trying. He needed encouragement at this time. It is just like the Lord to come at the time of the servant's greatest need. Note the Lord's words to him: 1. "Be not afraid." When one is executing the commission of the Lord he need not be afraid. 2. "Speak, and hold not thy peace." The one who has heard the voices of God cannot refrain from speaking—cannot be still. 3. "I am with thee." The Lord is with everyone who faithfully carries out his commission. 4. "No man shall set on thee to hurt thee." The one sent by the Lord to do a work is immune from danger and harm until his work is done. 5. "I have much people in this city." It is most encouraging to know that in the great cities the Lord has His own people and that the one who goes in His name shall have Fruit for his service. Bible classes are as necessary to a healthy parochial life as are any other religious agencies, and the priest who neglects them because they seem to him old-fashioned or connected with the Protestant sectarian system lays himself open to great blame.

ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS ASKS REPUBLICANS FOR STATEMENT OF FACTS The Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, IL. Sept. 21.—The following is a copy of a letter, sent by the Associated Negro Press to the T. Adams Chairman, Republican National Committee. This letter has created wide comment. It was read before the gathering of newspaper men in Atlanta, Ga.; and unanimously endorsed with the declaration that Mr. Adams be requested to give a categorical answer. Mr. Adams replied to the letter by requesting a conference with Mr. Brascher in Chicago but at the same time he was in Atlanta, Georgia. Concerning this jigster, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary treasurer Howard University, Washington, D. C. has said, "It is the greatest presentation of the case of the Colored people I have read," in a long time" Hon. John T. Adams, Chairman, Republican National Committee, Monkey Building, Washington, D. C. Dear Searl. The Associated Negro Press represents 112 newspapers published in the Internet of Colored Americans. Inquiries are coming to us from every section of the country concerning the policies of the organization program under your administration. There is very deep concern about this because of the trend of events since the inauguration of President Harding. THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS FRIDAY, SEPT. 30, 1921 ```markdown ``` discouragement and keen disappointment among the people of our group." With very few things happening to arouse the old-fashioned enthusiasm and split of party cheer, with words or deeds, in recent months, to arouse the feeling of party pride, on the other hand, there have been a number of things to arouse painful curiosity. Among the first of these was the cutting down of representation by the National Convention. Hon. Clarence B. Miller, secretary of the Committee, on our request, issued a statement on this subject, which, though detailed, does not relieve, the impression among the people, that there are motives behind the change, destined to eliminate Negro citizens from party influence. This was followed by a meeting of Republican groups by which time only qualified Republicans of our group were barred from the gathering by police power. Later, the meeting of Republicans in Atlanta, Ga., attended and presided over by Honorable Clarence B. Miller, in which the newspaper reports state that Mr. Miller announced that henceforth the Republican party of Georgia and presumably all other states, must be absolutely under white control. This is followed by the report from a group of distinguished colored citizens who called upon President Harding, that the President declared to them that his mind is made up on policies to be pursued by the party, that he does not intend to appoint any Colored citizens to office in the South, and that Colored Ameriqans, if they wish to be pursued by the party, must be appointed with following white leadership. Inquiry by as brought an immediate personal communication from Mr. Christian that there is no foundation for the statement, but the gentlemen-present insist that the president was correctly quoted. The matter of appointment to public office is merely an indication of the spirit of good will and cooperation; in the present state of the high cost of living, office holding can hardly be regarded as "remunerative," even by leading colored citizens, hundreds of them having incomes many times larger than the majority paid by the government. But it is quite natural that there are many who would accept the honor of appointment in the same patriotic spirit, with which we served in the great world war and all other wars, and that each party remains true to the fathers it will recognize Colored citizens, along with others, on the principle of merit. The people at large cannot understand why up to date, there has been so little recognition of Colored citizens and in the single instance of a Presidential appointment, the Honorable United States Sepute, at this writing has failed to confirm. However, it is a matter of general knowledge, that millions of colored Americans, while not denying the right to vote, hold office and receive equitable and fair political recognition, would feel less keenly disappointed were there passed by the Congress, legislation protecting the life and property of citizens, and particularly against the terrible crime of lynching. While we are aware that there are a number of people who are not aware are quite aware that none of them will be effective until passed by the House and Senate and signed by the President. To date none of these bills are on the calendar. In the spirit of party loyalty and deep sincere concern, we are asking a clarification of the doubts on these various matters referred to above. We feel that we are entitled to know the facts in the case, we feel that you will agree we ought to know the facts, that we should be informed in detail about the policies of the Administration and the Republican party as they affect the Colored citizens. We cannot imagine that there is any intention of keeping us in the dark; in fact, if the events as mentioned, are indicative of the motives mentioned, it would indicate that we are getting too much of the light; the right to vote is not the right to see aright? Do you ask us to argue the millions of our citizens to remain quiet and loyal, under these circumstances, accepting the program outlined or are we expected to tell them that heceforth they must have no party expression or racial leadership in matters of statecraft? Your opinion will be awaited with the greatest of respect and deepest concern. Very respectfully, THE ASSOCIATED-NEGRO PRESS, per Nahum Daniel Brascher. Editor-in-Chief. We have produced this year one great actor and several small leaders of the race. Good work. N. A. A. C. P. HELPS WORLD AND POST-DISPATCH IN KU KLUX KLAN EXPOSE James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, today made the following statement: Just one year ago one of the staff officers of the National Association wrote to the Klan Klan in Atlanta and in reply received an application for membership blank and some other literature, of the Klan. This was the beginning of the fight which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has kept up against the Klan Klan ever since. After considerable correspondence, we secured enough information regarding the Klan to give wide spread publicity to it and to show its real purposes. We placed the evidence that we had gathered into the hands of the Mayor of the City of New York, Governor of New York State, Police Commissioner of New York, Attorney Office, and also into the hands of the Department of Justice at Washington. Later a member of our office staff made the trip to Ocee, Florida and investigated the Ku Klux Klan riots in that town in which twenty-five forty colored people were killed. The first mass meeting in New York against the Ku Klux Klan was held under the auspices of the National Association for the Adancement of Colored People on the 3rd of January. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has not only fought the Ku Klux Klan from its National Office and through its branches by publicity, by mass meetings and by appealing to the authorities. It has also fought the Klan as it is glorified in the infamous moving picture, "The Birth of a Nation". In return the Klan, through its organ, the earchlight, lambed a vicious attack against the N. A. A. C. P. and used every means in its power to intimidate members of the Association in the South. The first waged by Association has at last taken up by a. great. and powerful champion, The New York World. And The World is dealing the Ku Klux Klan its death blow. Twenty other prominent newspapers in various sections of the country are associated with The World in giving publicity to the inside workings of this nefarious organization. About a little more than two months ago a representative of The World came into the National Office of the Association and told us plans for an investigation and expose which his paper was identifying and asked us to furnish him with all data and information possible on his distress files, of data, information and data relating to the Ku Klux Klan. We are glad that we were able to reader this assistance to The World in the great fight which it is carrying on. The World is performing a great service not only to the Negro but to the nation because in stamping out the Ku Klux Klan, it is conserving its institutions of law and order. The World merits the appreciation of the whole country because the destruction of the Ku Klux Klan means more to them than to anybody else. In addition the New York American has begun the publication of a series of articles exposing the Klan. The articles are written by C. Anderson Wright former King Eagle of the invisible fringe of the Ku Klux Klan. In the issue of the American of September 18 Mr. Wright made the following disclosure regarding the policy of the Klan toward the N. A. C. P. Fear Negro Power "Another subject of serious discussion was the realization that the power of the Negro society known as the Society for the Advancement of Colored People was becoming a greatmenure in the expansion of the Ku Klux Klan, as it was continued by the press pressure and the Klan's methods. This society was getting active in State legislative work having already succeeded in having introduced by a Negro legislator from Chicago, a bill denouncing the Klan in the Illinois Legislature. This bill was passed. It made an appeal to the citizens of Illinois to refrain from joining or associating in any manner with the Ku Klux Klan. This activity led the part of the activity to the conclusion that wagtail had prompt action, and it was decided to set up a rival organization to the Society for the Advancement of Colored People without delay. Clarke began with a Negro in his own employ, a man of unusual intelligence, who was in charge of the servants on his farm on the outskirts of Atlanta. This servant enlisted the services of other Negroes as spies, and they attended the meetings of the society and reported everything that was said and done. Also these spies sought to create dissatisfaction and discord among the members of the society. This Negro phase of the Klan's activities I shall deal with in another article." EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE ASKS HARDING TO ACT AGAINST THE KU KLUX EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE ASKS HARDING TO ACT AGAINST THE KU KLUX The Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, IL. Sept. 21—The Equal Rights League's convention after a few stormy sessions adjourned last Tuesday morning. N. A. Taylor of the local branch of the organization was the individual who threw a monkey wrench into the proceedings and thereby freed the adjournment. The light was on the question of membership in the convention and was signaled by much bitterness of feeling by the contenders and finally brought about the sudden adjournment. The League sent a petition to President Harding, signed by Reverend M. A. N. Shaw, president of the National Equat Rights League, Rev. J. T. Moppins, vicepresident; James L. Neal, recording secretary; Wm. Trotter, corresponding secretary; Mrs. Eva M. Wells, assistant corresponding secretary; Rev. H.B. Mayes, national) chairman and Rev. S. E. J. Watson, chairman of the Executive Committee, asking the president to send a spectal to Congress, recommending a law for bidding secret organizations which are contrary in purpose to the letter and spirit of the law and constitution. In the executive sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday the position of the Chairman of Executive Committee was declared vacant and Rev. S. E. J. Watson, pastor of the Pilgrim Baptist Temple, was elected to fill the vacancy. The Chicago Branch No. 1, was suspended. Henceforth the League will be a chartered organization and the officers expressed a belief that it will grow rapidly the coming year. The address concludes as follows: "We urge all Colored Americans to organization 'as never before in new and increased vigor under their race leaders and through this League for self-protection of rights, and to put through this our program. Rev. M.A. N. Shaw, Massachusetts, president; T. J. Moppins, Missouri, vice-president; J. L. Neil, District Columbus, recording secretary; Wm. Monroe Trotter, Massachusetts, corresponding secretary; Eva M. Wells, Ill., assistant corresponding secretary; N. B. Mayes, Indiana, national organizer; S. E. J. Watson, Ill., chair., Executive committee. S. S. REED RETURNS FROM TOUR OF SOUTHERN STATES Samuel S. Reed of the St. Louis Argus, who spent two months in the South, has returned to the city after having carried on Revivals in Hilliabor, Bridgeport and Gurley, Ala., also Chattanooga, Tenn., which netted 22 souls to the cause of Christ. While in Hilliabor he was the guest of Rev. B. C. Britain and Bethel Baptist Church. Rev. Britain, the Wise Moderator of Mollard Creek Prison Association, Hilliabor is also the site of the $25,000 Industrial School of the Association of which Mr. Reed has been offered the Principalship, beginning next Fall, which he is now considering. This is only the beginning of the $100,000 Institution, which is to be built. At Gurley he was the guest of Rev. W. C. Crutcher, Moderator of the North Alabama and East Tennessee Baptist Association and had eleven conversions. At Chattanooga, he was the guest of Rev. E. W. Jones, who is pastor of a church in Chattanooga, where he also added eleven souls. He was offered the pastorate of several churches in Tennessee. His address on the New Negro in the New Day in Chattanooga, won for him a high place among the people, so much so that he was invited to deliver the Emancipation Day address there on January 1, 1922, which he accepted.

Clemons And Kennard To Do The Receiving. BOTH CLUBS ANXIOUS TO WIN THE OPENER Series Attracting More Attention Than Anything Else In Baseball. Big Crowd Expected. NEGROES OFFERED BEST SEATS IN GRAND STAND Have Front Row Boxes And Entire. Section Back Of Giants' Bench. Prices From 50 Cents Up. Jess Haines, the Cardinals speedy right-hander, in all probability will go on the mound against the St. Louis Giants in the opening game Monday. Clemons will do the receiving. The Cardinals are not playing the Colored boys "cheap" this year, after their last fall's experience, but are going out to take the opening battle, and gain the advantage on the series. Haines shut out the Giants last year, but its a far better team he will go up against this time. The "pill busters" are in championship form as evidenced by the series just closed at Kansas City, where they won three out of four games. Big Bill Drake should be the choice against the National League batting champions in the opener, but Finner may be sent to the hill as he has bounded to form and is pitching wonderful ball at present. Meyers, the new pitcher, secured from Montgomery, is also on edge and wants to try out against the Cards. Kennard will do the catching. Charleston, and Blackwell, the Gaults' sluggers, can be depended upon to give the Cardinals slabben real trouble. These boys have never hit the pill so hard and consistently as they are doing now. The brain work will fall on foxy Joe Hewitt. The stirring shortstop has been the making of the Giants this season. There are very few plays that catch him mapping and he plays "inside ball" like a card shark. The Giants look fit to hold, their own with any league team this year. Only the infield is in need of a little strengthening. **Mills Deserves Credit** On account of the standing of the Cardinals in the National League, the booking of games with the Giants was almost a futile effort this year, but they were finally landed, only after conceding one of the heaviest guar- tees ever given a major league team for a post-season series. The Cardinals declined to play the Browns in order to meet the Colored boys. The booking of these games speaks much for the craftiness of Charley Mills, who arranged the series, and it has grasped more interest than anything in baseball at present. It will also afford an opportunity for that class of white This, who have never seen the Colored players, to learn that Negroes excel in baseball as well as in the prize prize or on the athletic field. The series will consist of five games: Monday, Oct. 3, Tuesday, 4th, Sunday, 9th Monday, 10th and Tuesday 11th. All games will be played, at the American League game. Grand and Dodger, starting 41'3 p.m. The umpires will be Bee Brown James Powers and Hurricane Miller. Negroes Get Best Seats Negroes who attend the games will be given the best seats in the Grand stand.
