NEW YORK, October 19—Aroused by the World's expose of the Ku-Klux-Klan, the Board of Aldermen unanimously adopted a resolution the other day condemning that organization as one of "sedition, disorder and Know Nothingism" and urging vigorous prosecution of the organization. The resolution, introduced by Alderman William T. Collins, reads as follows: "Whereas, Since this board adjourned on July 12 last, the public has been aroused and amazed at the reported activities of an organization known by the unsavory title of the Ku Klux Klan, which has for its aswoved object been called the "National Liberation Libraries, under the Constitution, of Catholic and Jewish citizens, as well as foreign-born citizens of all denominations, and "Whereas, this same marked band of criminal lawbreakers, which insolently boasts of being 100 per cent. American, was originally formed over fifty years ago to deprive Colored citizens of their rights, and has never ceased making the object of Ku Klux Klan hatred and malevolence; therefore be it." "Resolved, That the Board of Aldermen of the city of New York, embracing in its membership every element of this Invisible Empire's hostility to the Catholic, the Jew, the Negro and the foreign-born, hereby speaks upon the minutes of the board its condemnation of the lawless organization of indefinite prejudices, prejudices and hate, with all its grosse paraphernalia of Wards, Klejges, Goblins and Klansmen, and this board calls upon prosecuting officers to vigorously prosecute to the limit of the penal laws every violation of orderly constitutional government throughout the United States instigated by this or any other intolerant and bigoted organization of sedition, disorder and Know Nothingism." It was brought up it was brought up by Alberman B. C. Vindick, Socjist, if developed later that Alberman Vindek had mis-understood the resolution and had mis-understood the passage of an ordinance against the Ku Klux Khan, which he thought unnecessary. He withdrew his opposition. N.A.A.C.P. POLLS CONGRESSMEN ON THE KU KLUX KLAN Letters Sent To Senators And Representatives Asking For A Statement Of Their Opinion. NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People asks a letter sent to every member of Congress, House of Representatives and Senate asking for a statement on the Ku-Kux-Klan. In the first week replies came announcing the Klan, from the following Senators Howard Sutherland of West Virginia, Arthur Capper of Kansas; David I Walsh of Massachusetts; William M. York of New York; Harry M. of Indiana; William Mitterman of Washington and Frank B. Wills of Ohio. Among the representatives who dearest themselves opposed to the Ku-Kux-Klan and its program are the following: John F. Curew, Thomas J. Ryan, Anthony J. Griffin, Peter G. Tynck, and Michael J.

Hakride of Missouri; F. F. Patterson, Jr. of New Jersey, W. J. Graham of Illinois; J. N. Trichner of Kansas. Among the statements received from the senators and representatives, are the following: Senator Arthur Capper: "I do not believe that problem can be solved by the Ku-Klim-Klan's methods. There is no place in this country for an organization which since expedition as an excuse to defy society and take the law into its own hands."**** No scheme which would have a tenency to encourage class or race hatred—and I believe the methods of the Ku-Klim-Klan do this—should be tolerated for a moment. Senator Howard Sutherland: "I am glad to assume that I have no sympathy whatever with this organization and think I square to the liberties." Senator David I. Walsh: "If I am The St. Louis Argus By Associated Negro Press Assembled Negro Press by NNEV Hylan made a recent appeal to colored voters recently in the Ruth Memorial Church. He said, among other things: "What the Negro is entitled to and should receive is a square deal, equal opportunities in civic and industrial life, which are guaranteed to him under the Constitution." Mayor Hylan said "This city administration has steadily insisted that Negroes shall have a square deal and the protection which they are entitled to." "In this respect anointed point that—in 1918 representatives of the National Urban Conditions Among Negroes conferred with the trustees of Bellevue and allied hospitals in regard to admitting to the interne staff of Bellevue Hospitals. Negroes who are graduates of reputable schools of medicine. These representatives were told that all appointments to Bellevue and allied hospitals were made solely on ability and merit, and that absolutely no admission was made because of race or creed." Since that date several colored physicians have served as interns at Bellevue hospital and that more consideration is still to follow. "During the past three years and nine months Negroes have been appointed to the Mayor's office and the District Attorney's office and both colored men and colored women have been appointed to the Police Department. These 300 African Americans been entitled to show my personal interest as a citizen of the city and to participation in the colored people. This is in keeping with our policy of administering the affairs of the city in the interests of the people. The humblest citizen, regardless of his race, creed or social status, has been listened to respectfully and given every possible consideration." WHITE POLICEMAN ASSAULTS THE Y. W. C. A.

Resolutions From the Officiary of the St. Paul, A. M. K. Church St. Paul A. M. E. Church One resedent given in appreciation during the life time of an individual who has many thousands after his death. A little sunshine of encouragement along the way while a human being is struggling to achieve is worth many volumes of memorists in enology after death. The officiary of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, after two years and eight months experience with its present pastor and viewing the splendid results which have been brought about as well as appreciating the ardour of the pastor, him, feel it a duty, as well as a pleasure, to adopt these resolutions in appreciation of the work of our pastor, the Rev. C. A. Williams. When he came to St. Paul Church the funeral Conference, which it was scheduled to entertain was one rear away. He found the church building badly in need of repairs and decorations. He found a team with numbers and unstaggerable table collections and with bad church decoration, the latter to the fact, with the members discouraged and the church rapidly losing its place of high prestige in the community where it had lead to more than a half cent With the first parish to dare to do, Dr. William took the situation in hand. Within six months time, he put a gallery into the church and remodeled and required it, all with the total expense of six thousand dollars, which was paid for in cash when completed. He浸灌ated it in a new financial system for the church, substituting systematic giving for the haphazard method of public collections. The system of financial accounting for all the departments of the church which he imagined at once lent confidence and inspiration to the members and friends of old St. Paul, so that, each department now shows a new balance in its treasury, lending audited assistance to made of the finances and accounts of every department of the church, by a competent auditing committee, and a report thereof was made. A system of banking 'the church's money has been instituted with the result that a balance in bank has been increased steadily. He has organized many new aids in church work and has perfected those organizations already in existence. The young people of the church have been gathered together in organizations and are working like boys for a hive. The men of the church have are accomplishing things. The service of dylive worship has been so dignified that there is a new feeling of devotion and benefit upon attending them. Besides this, Dr. Williams has been public spirited, and has lent himself to many public movements for the benefit and uplift of the people without in any manner neglecting the work of Paul. Dr. Williams has realigned historic St. Paul makes blu one of the leaders of the people in this great city, and he has lived up to the place. Because of these reforms and new activities about St. Paul, the church has become a veritable bee hive with every department alive, and has become a moving and leading light of St. Louis. To crown all of this, the church has just celebrated its eighth anniversary with a wonderful week, include a naugative gift the history of St. Paul from its foundation to the present and marking the very climate of church activities. The spiritual life of the church was never better, and because of the church's dedication, that a dozen spiritual devotion toward St. Paul is felt by its members. The officiacy of the church by there and that that Dr. Williams is the kind of man St. Paul needs to lead her and once upon the Bishop and Conference the continued civilities of Dr. Williams in our church.

The full vested choir of fifty voices rendered the choral evening song interspersed with anthems in superb style. A Logical Orator Bishop Emby's sermon was a message and a 'masterpiece of convincing logic and oratory, that stirred the large congregation to the dephasing. He told the story of the Negro's progress and advance in face of difficulties, and rehearsed the herculean struggles made by the fathers and men of the North. He helped to help and assistance which the good white people both North and South had rendered the black man in his struggles toward advancement, and assured his hearers that there were still large numbers of friends of the Race, South and North, who were contributing, and ready and willing to contribute to this advancement. In this rehearsed he told the congregation, by the Episcopal church, which he stated was the great hope and salvation of the Negro in working out these problems.

Bishop to Liberia for the Methodist Episcopal Church, one of the two first Negro Bishops elected by that denomination at the General Conference at Des Moines, Iowa, May, 1920, has just completed a tour of the mission stations under his supervision throughout Liberia, in order to information reach the country formerly pastor of the Ashbury Methodist Episcopal Church of Washington, D.C., which he built up into one of the strongest Negro churches of any denomination, during his term of service there. At the time of his election to the Episcopacy, he was District Superintendent in Washington. In Liberia Bishop Clair has met with the most courageful welcome from Government officials, mission workers and the community, and has unusually like specimen of Negro manhood, large and strong of body, with clean-en features and kindly smile, and the man of the jungle, in him the type of man to lead their race. The Bishop traveled through primate jungle, through country infested with wild animals, and often under the most trying hardships. At times the party were transported on river streamers, and were born by native men of the bush, at other times they trekked on foot for many miles for into the night before reaching their destination. At the towns and native villages, along his line of march Bishop Clair was met by crowds of enthusiastic natives who came out several miles to meet and welcome an Afro-American bishop who had come to work for their advance in the church. He met many local and tribal chieftains, all of whom besought him to send a Christian priest and teacher to live and work in their midst. These people, according to Bishop Clair, are intensely desires of having their children taught in the rudiments of education and the Christian religion. He found they a great deal of America of their own because he knew that they are anxious to follow in the same foot steps. Delegations of chiefs and sub-chiefs from tribes further in the depths of the jungle visited him at a number of points to request that he send missionaries to teach them and their children the religion and civilization of America and to teach them the far distant regions, and had talked for days to meet the American Negro bishop.

October LARGE CROWD GREETS VICTOR MILLER AT THE "Y" JOHN MITCHELL JR. SPEAKS AT UNION MEMORIAL CHURCH More Than Six-Hundred Gather To Hear His Message, "Which Way." Tells Hearers Republican Party Has Invited Us Out And Colored People Of Virginia Have Accepted The Challenge. Hon. John Mitchell Jr., of Richmond, Va. delivered his famous address, "Which Way?" before a large audience at Union Memorial Church last Monday evening. Mr. Mitchell had been scheduled to speak here on Friday evening, but wagged where he was attending the American Banker Association. But those who heard Mr. Mitchell Monday night, say he made good and that they were willing to forgive him for his delay. Before he got down to his subject, Mr. Mitchell gave a few "openers" on business. In fact, the banking business, his business. He also gave statistics showing how much the Negro produced and how little he controlled in this country. His Introduction The speaker was introduced by A. W. Lloyd, Grand Chancellor, Knights of Pythias of Missouri, who characterized Mr. Mitchell as a statesman, banker, editor, Grand Chancellor of Virginia Knights of Pythias and Grand Worries of Virginia, as well as Brigidian-General, of the State of Virginia; and that he was a member of the American Bankers Association; Fellow, Royal Society of Arts; London; National Geographic Society; American Association for the Advancement of Science; National Association of the Merce of the United States and President of the Mechanics Savings Bank (Richmond, Va. After such an introduction: the speaker seemed for the moment, at a lost as just where to start. However, he began by saying: "Distinguished pastor, master of ceremony, ladies and gentlemen. I have for the past six days done my level best to reach St. Louis last Friday night for I never like to San Francisco keeping those strict agents not about a train reaching here for that engagement, I am sure you would feel I owe you no apology. However, I apologize to you by saying that my only regret is that I shall have to leave St. Louis tonight. Need of Organization "The great trouble with my race is we do not save enough of what we earn. God knows we make a plenty; but we do not keep it in our possession long oough. If you only earn ten cents, a day, don't spend but nip. Save me." There is too much individualism among us. Each man is for himself. We must trust our leaders. Crazy people never organize. Which Way "Folks," said the speaker: "we are confronted with a serious question with regards to our status as American citizen. When I returned to the old commonwealth of Virginia, a short while ago, and was informed that the Negroes who had been local to the Republican party (or forty years, were not) were not here, can convention. I asked the question, what kind of Republics are these? This is not the party of Lincoln, Grant and Roosevelt, but what could we do? We did not want to go to the Democratic party, so which way? To Try it Alone "After talking the matter over among ourselves, we decided that the Republicans did not want us and we accepted their challenge to try it alone. "We were not getting much any way so we did not have much to one." Here, Mr. Mitchell told of how the National Administration had treated Colored people. He pictured the call four-hundred thousand Negro men to the White House, and the sufferings that the women and children of the Race had to undergo as a result of the World War, and then said. "If Mr. Harding or anybody else thinks we will stand for such treatment, tell them they are mistaken." As he made these remarks, tears trickled down his cheeks, and the speaker used his handkerchief freely. There were more than six-hundred persons present, and many rounds of applause responded during the address. Dinner at Grand Central At six o'clock a representative group of local Pythians had as their guest, Hoh John Mitchell JF, at the Grand Central Hotel. During the dinner hour, it is said, the status of the Missouri Pythians was discussed. Some significance is attached to the meeting in view of the fact that the Missouri delegates were denied seats at the Supreme session of the Knights of Pythias, Topokia, Kan. It is said that under the leadership and advice of John Mitchell, the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias of Virginia has withdrawn from the Supreme Lodge on account of what they call "unjust taxation." It is understood that the $2000 misdress was discussed during the conference. A Square Deal For Every Man D GREETS ER AT THE "Y" President Of Police Board Says, "Let Ku Klux Klan Start Something Here" PRAISES THE COLORED UNIFORM POLICEMEN Will Put On More Soon As They Qualify. Says Police Are To Protect And Not Abuse Good Citizens. But It Requires Force For The Crooks The largest crowd ever seen at one of the Sunday afternoon meetings was present at Young Men's Christian Association, last Sunday, to greet the Hon. Victor J. Miller, president of the police department. The "Gim" was crowded to capacity including the balcony, alley, doorways and every available space. Many, of course, were there to see what they called "the man of destiny" who is undertaking such a large task of cleaning up the city. While the majority was present, as a testament to the success of the police Board has done for the Colored boys in allowing them to qualify for uniform police service in the city. In his opening remarks, Mr. Miller said, he was not a mind reader; but he felt that most of those present wanted to know what he was going to say about the Ku-Klu-Klam. He assured me that only say a very little about the Klan. He said that the least that is said about the Klan the sooner it would die. But the newspapers were giving that organization a million dollars worth of free advertisement. "As to the Police Department," Mr. Miller said, "not a member of the Board of Police Commissioners belong to it, notwithstanding they had been many times imported to us in how the department has to it. I don't know. Every man has the right to think as he chooses and believe what he wants to. What the Ku-Klu-Klan did in Texas and Oklahoma is none of our business. It is what they do here that concerns me. All I want is evidence that the Ku-Klu-Klan violates any law here or teaches, preach violence of any kind. Present the evidence to me and I will show you what I will do. Talk is cheap. I owe no allegiance to anyone except the governor of the State and the good citizens. We want all good citizens to know that the Police Department is their friend and protection. Praises Negro Officers "In uniforming the members of your race as police officers, the Board feels that it has made no mistake. The Board knows we will be there. We will then closely. Of course, there is always room for improvements. We will put on more, but the trouble is finding men who can qualify. Here is an example: Out of 380 white men who are police officers, this will give you an idea of what is required of a Police officer. Believes In Square Deal "I believe that every man, woman and child, be black white yellow, or what not, are entitled to the same opportunity in the Race of life under the constitution. When they are denied this we strike the very foundation of free government. **Police are Your Friends** On an average, you are just as law-abiding as any other of the lawmen. I want you feel the power of the police officer is your friend. Speak to them they are for the most part, men of families and human beings. There are 1647 police in the city so if one does wrong, don't condemn the whole department. All we have, is force to make those who are bad fear the law. It would require a policeman for every other man in a city like this to absolutely prevent crime. **Your Vote can Help** "Every man and woman can help the police. Before you go to the polls to vote, think of the man you are voting for. Don't fight against those who are unit, regardless of party, and let the good scramble for the office. Keep tab on men who do not keep their promise. The man who does not keep his promise, for God's sake do not go back and vote for him again. His Only Ambition "The only ambition I have as Police Commissioner, is duty well done. I don't care what the 'ward healer' says. You know the class I mean. They have gone to the Governor and told him that I was killing the Republican party says, say, when the Republican party sets in, the instance depends upon crooks, thieves and lawbreakers, then I say, let is die quickly." During his address, Mr. Miller was frequently interfered by appliance from the audiences. Those who heard him, believed him to be earnest and sincere. LOST—BOSCO SIMIONS LOUISVILLE' Ky. Oct. 20.

(9-20-3) This is to certify that on the 25th this nine year old Jolokia was given up to die with diphtheria and membranous croup by two Naphon City Physicians. The third doctor gave little or no hope of his recovery. About five o'clock of the same day, Mr. Tomlinson was informed of the case; he visited our house with a bottle of their Quick Relief Oil, which we applied externally and internally to the boy's throat and body, which gave almost instant relief, and imbued with thankful joyful hearts as our boy is cured and well, and we believe, saved from an early grave by Tomlinson's Quick Relief Oil. Our six and child, 1½ years old, was also attacked with this terrible disease. We applied the Quick Relief Oil freely. The little thing did not restrain that she was able as she played about the house and did not take to her bed dur. With God blessing us we are very truly and thankfully yours.

NEW COLORED CATHOLIC CHURCH IN E. ST. LOUIS FIRST REGULAR SERVICE St. Louis Choir Sings High Mass, Two Colored And Two, White Boys Assist At Altar. EAST ST. LOUIS, IL. Oct. 20.—On Sunday, October with St. Augustine's Church for Colored Catholics, 1400 Broadway had assuredly an auspicious opening. For the first time in the history of East St. Louis, the scattered Colored Catholics as a body, had an opportunity of seeing in their own church the magnificent ritual of the nineteen-century-old Mother-Church of Christendom. A good number of Colored people many of them non-Catholics awaited of the unique opportunity, and the presence of a few white Catholic people lent to the event a truly Catholic missal. A book on the course of those who might not be able to come to, the regular opening was celebrated by the Rev. C. M. Taylor, a priest of the Society for African Missions, which is in charge of this work. A high mass was sung by a St. Louis Colored Catholic choir with Fr. Taylor at the organ—a gift of a local Catholic lady. Mr. Hirrington, until recently a missionary in Liberia, West Africa and now Superior of the Society for African Missions in East St. Louis, was celebrated. Two white boys and two colored boys were by Fr. Angel, prominent local Pastor and a noted benefactor of the Church for Colored Catholics. The opening sermon, which was to have been preached by Rev. Fr. P. J. Burye, also a noted benefactor of the new Church, was preached by Fr. Harrington. Commenting on the Epistle of the day, Fr. Harrington spoke of the joy which St. Paul expressed because his newly-founded Church amongst the Phillipsians had given such proofs of sincerity and humility. Confirmation of his faith also expressed his own joy that the enlightened kindness of the people of East St. Louis had made possible the opening of this new Church, and expressed a hope that, like the Phillipsians, the members of the new congregation would remain true to themselves, true to their great race and true to the Mother-Church. Commenting on some unfounded prejudices, common amongst coloured people, against the Catholic Church, we said to the Phillipsians the members of the new Church does not give sufficient privilege to the Bible he encouraged in one simple phrase: "If we took the Bible from the Mass, there would be very little leff," and that "were it not for the efforts of the Catholic and her monastic orders, every time of the world's history from the time when St. Paul wrote to the Phillipsians to instruct that Latter-day Saint should be the minister of the church of opening the instruction, and evening classes, followed the sermon. Referring to the fact that several people had expressed a desire to attend Church if they only could give Sunday clothes, he deplored such a sad state of things, stating that poverty was no disgrace, for if it were a missionary would be the meanest of men, that God is not an exponent of persons, and that those who were on Church attendance as something higher and nobler than a fancy dress ball or a millinery show room. He also pointed out to his people that their little Church lacked many necessary things. There could be no evening devotions because there was neither opaque nor ostensium nor even a pyx in which to reserve the blessed Sacrament, but with God's help all those things would come with patience and perseverance. Let us be said: "theather thanked us for our patience and perseverance. What we have not, our little mission although heavily in debt, can nevertheless promote the glory of God, and will undoubtedly become, in God's good time and with the cooperation of its friends, a center of civic and religious importance. The official opening and dedication of St. Augustine's Church for Colored Students, the Rt. Rev. James A. McCormick, and deity, be postponed until Thanksgiving Day. WOMAN'S RECORD CLUB TO ISSUE A CENTENNIAL SOUVENIR RECORD BOOK Hopes To Secure Public Cooperation In Recording History Of Negro Achievement At the last meeting of the Woman's Record Club, a proposal was made and put in concrete form, for placing on record the part the Negro has taken in making history during the first one hundred years of Missouri's State hood. The club has very wisely taken the position that the Negro of the state should have some vehicle giving permanency to what he has actually accomplished that is of worth to the state. This being Centennial year and no demonstration having taken cognizance of the very important work the Negro has done, the most generous hopes with the help of a generous public to fill the void in part at least and place facts concerning Negro life and endeavor in such form that it can be handed down to posterity. Literature is already in the hands of the printer which will be mailed out to citizens throughout the state, as rapidly as the club officials are able and all who are interested in the work will be informed. In the office will call at the club headquarters or write 2645 Lawton Avenue, or phone Central 836L-1. The president of the club is Mrs. Alice M. Packard; Mrs. Amna Braich.

Asks For Delegates To The World Congress. WASHINGTON D.C. Oct. 19. Fellow Americans of Color: The Third Armistice Day Anniversary November 11, 1921 is destined to surpass the original Armistice Day of Nov. 11, 1918, and to be second to it in memorable significance. That first Armistice Day of a World War fought by the U.S. A. and Allied Nations on the promise of world democracy inaugurated steps for a world peace conference in Paris. This coming year, D.A. invites congresses another world conference in form of a World Disarmament Conference, at Washington D.C. The president of the U. S. A. has asked the category to publicly assemble on that day to agitate for peace and to honor the soldier dead of the world war. He himself, will hold service for the "Unknown Soldiers" of the world-democracy war. The National Equal Rights League of the U. S. A. appeals to Colored America to hold service for the soldier dead and for the cause for which they died, world democracy. The League asks that in every community on Armistice Day or Armistice Sunday if more feasible at Equal Rights, Mass Meetings arranged by Equal Rights League, old ones or new ones, or by Equal Rights League or by some organization or church, the soldier dead, a movement be begun to elect, send delegates to a great national convention for the realization of the promise made to our soldiers; to be held during the World Disarmament Conference, at Washington in December. Let the entire Colored American group have a delegated representative congress at the seat of the 2nd World Peace Conference which this time has come to our shores, and there appeal to our own country to really lead the world for peace by helping out the war by proposing to the assembled nations the abolishment of the underlying cause of all wars, racial prejudice, arrogance and anticleracy in their dominies. The National Equal Rights League invites Colored America to its 2nd National Colored World Democratic Congress which will convene in the District of Columbia, Dec. 14, 1921.

St. Louis' Leading Photo Play Theatre GOOD MUSIC AND PLENTY OF FUN AT THE B. W. THEATRE THIS WEEK Good music dominates the Drakes-Walker show at the Booker Washington Theatre this week, but this decade is a continuance of that flood of comedy (or which Henry Drake has become famous. The playlet is entitled "Why White Leaves Home." Its the same old story of another man in the case. The husband is a hard working honest man. The other man is a doctor and shoeless. The other man is a dark-haired doctor. Most of the comedy is found in the actions of her rural relatives who, united for a large city, follow her to effect a reconciliation. Ethel Walker as the wife; Willie Drake, the doctor; H. Drake, the husband; and Tiahann Scott, his "ma" are the principals in the escapade and all they their characters are depicted in the telegrapher in the scheme to detract the husband from his quest. It is a tantalizing "vamp." As with the previous production, the costumes and scenery are attractive. The music is top-notch. Among the musical features are "Tuth Humh" Lord Have Mercy On A Married Man, Mum Have Mercy On A Married Man, "Its Not Your Nationality," "Hard Times" When It Not Too Late," "Swearwine Hines" "Hello Everybody," "Any Time, Any Day Any Place," "Who Wants A Baby" and the entire company in Home Again Hines "Drake and Scott keep up a stream of real fun and there is much prettily and graceful damage including back dancing by Clifford Drake.

Race Leaders Act Because Even In Minor Appointments They Had No Chance With Present Administration. Negroes Hold Balance Of Power. RICHMOND, Va. Oct. 19- The writer is grateful to his friend, the Editor of the Journal and Guide for the space given for a statement of the views of one of the candidates upon the Coloried "Republican" ticket, but if the Editor of the Journal and Guide knew with what avidity his paper is bought and read in the City of Newport News when this question was posed, he compensated for the space that he gave to it; besides nothing is of more interest to the American people, white and black, than a debate dealing with things political and particularly so when it is carried on without abuse and distrates and tends to inform the electorate as to the real situation. No Chance With Administration I shall again, therefore, presume upon my friend's generosity and goodness of heart in an attempt to point out some of the fallacies of his lengthy讹讽 under the option, Candidate under the option, Candidate shall not discuss at length the reference made to my application for appointment as Assistant District Attorney, for it is only necessary for me to say that I never expected the appointment nor sought the endorsement from the Lily Whites, but I was determined to ask for this recognition as to show that, even in a minor office of honor, the Negro had no chance with the Harding Administration. Political Status of the Negro The Journal and Guide is in the extreme when it speaks of my endorsement by the Lily Whites because it knows that we sought this recognition in defiance of the Lily Whites and to force the President out in the open as to his attitude towards the Negro Republicans of the South. The application for this appointment was made for no other purpose than to emphasize the fact that the time and come to have a ruling from Washington as to the politician and civil status of the Negro, even if it came to the point of exposing the Chief Executive who seems to be a deck candidate, but a very defiant President, openly declaring that 'sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish', he is determined that the Negroes shall 'fall in behind white leadership' in Virginia and in the South, or drop out of the equation all together. Representative Gathering As to the call for a conference referred to in the editorial, which was signed by several citizens and myself, it was to Rc a district meeting held at Buckroe Beach, and had nothing to do with the larger conference which took place there August 7. This conference was well attended by representatives from many parts of the world, and would have been a much better policy than the one he braid, but even granting that there were some ill-advised remarks and intolerance shown by those in charge, nevertheless it was clear to all present that the overwhelming sentiment was in favor of a convention to nominate a ticket in Richmond on Labour Day. If the group is so small which is the inspiration of the Lily Black movement was there anything to prevent Edition Sing and Dw. Semperville, the two Colonels of the State Department in the State known to be exposed to the movement inaugurated in Richmond from calling out the great mass of people not represented in this little group? Discussing Individuals This group had five hundred and ninety eight, bona-fide delegates in Richmond, cap the Editor and Mr. Somerville music as many citizens to vote the Democratic ticket of the Lily White ticket. It seems to this writer, that a more discussion of individuals in a great fight like this is not worthy of the able Editor of the Journal and Guide, although the temptation is unusually strong considering the weakness of the case against the Colored Republican Party, to distract its attention from its purposes and aims by attacking some of the supposed vulnerable points in the armour of the candidates and temporary leaders. **Needs No Defence.** Why attack John Mitchell, Jr., for instance, for attending the National Ranker Association, how in session in Los Angeles? Mr. Mitchell is the only Negro delegate of that body and is a strong supporter of why. Why should he be compelled for giving the rage recognition in that organization of National financiers, especially when its meeting was arranged almost one year before Mr. Mitchell was nominated. But to attempt further defense of Mr. Mitchell, one of the foremost Negroes of the country, would be to insult the indigenee of the country. **Lilac Blacks No Matter.** The Journal and Guide speaks of Mr. Fulbrill as an "in-command and irresoluble" which qualities are pretty dominant in the Chairman's character, but I believe that if the Editor of the Journal and Guide will make a subjective examination of his own psychological fabric, he will discover with timeless in evidence in both Christian England and the Mid motives in the present crisis. Now the Journal and Guide has promised to call us Lily Blacks no more, but Colored Republicans, and so we shall have this great Journal at least dignify us by the proper apollition. The Editor goes along pretty smoothly until he comes down to answering my questions. He says now, that the candidate for attorney and an uncle of an illiterate journalist, I am going to pay him the sincerely tribute that he is one of the best editorial writers known to me, regardless of color, but he is not only a poor politician but he goes exceedingly bad both in his mathematics and logic. Bad Mathematics and Logic. In a simple example: He says that these are 1500,000 whites in Virginia and 675,000 colored people in New York. And the whites can draw off to themselves and divide fifty, fifty, and that they would still have odds by a wide margin. Now how can my friend figure this out? There is a maxim which says, things equal to the same things are equal to each other, and if anything, is added to either of these equals, it will become greater than its co-equal by the addition of that thing. However insignificant it may be. So if the white people in Virginia should divide these equally, it would be Negroes organized that he could deposit his sons with one of these equal divisions, how can the Editor of the Journal and Guide figure that in that event the Negro would not hold the balance of power? But that is only one of the fallacies appearing in the editorial under discussion. The Three Pertinent Questions 1. If the Negro is not needed either to elect or defeat the candidates of the two white parties in Virginia, will the Editor please explain to his readers why, in such case, he should not hold to his own ideas and principles, as he prefers to speak without doing anyone any harm just as by voting with one of the parties he can do no one any good? It seems to me that the Editor is covering up considerable thought in his ugly editorial by a multitude of words and fine rhetoric. The Editor has not answered any of the questions proposed in my last letter to wit: 1. Shall we vote the Democratic ticket? 2. Shall we vote for the ticket named in Noffolk in a hall from which Negroes were excluded? 3. Shall we vote the Republican ticket named in Richmond, which excluded no man or woman on account of color? 4. Shall we do? Racial Solidarity Rest Course Racial Solidarity Best Course He goes on rather to argue that I assume that racial solidarity is the norm at this time in Virginia, and he argues we might as individuals vote the Democratic ticket, and by the same token we might vote the Lily White ticket, and he even permits his readers to vote the Colerel-Republican ticket, provided J. R. Pollard, John Michell, Jr., J. Thomas Newsome, Dr. Scott, Dr. Jones, Capt Brown; Mr. Nash and of course Mrs. Maggie L. Walker have achieved anything political in thirty years. Before going on to the next chapter, his Editor Yohan accomplished during these years and what Dr. Somerville in thirteen politics But all of this is besides the question: for it has been impossible for the gentlemen named by the Journal and Guide or any other Colored man in Virginia, to achieve anything political owing to the elimination of the Negro by Constitutional amendments and political legacydomain thrust upon the people by the Democratic Party aided and abetted by the very Lily Whites for whom we are now advised to vote. The Journal and Guide and the Vigil. Personal Sacricles Made Few of the men named by the Journal and Guide have been actively engaged in politics for years and years. The men who have voted for them have made places for themselves of prominence among their fellowmen of education, property and character equals in every respect of the candidates on the Lily White ticket. And I happen to know that the honor of making personal sacrifices by being nominated for office to which none will be elected came to most of the men and to Mrs. Walker absolutely unhappily. Throughout the pleasure of the five hundred and ninety-eight delegates that attended the mass Celebration in Richmond on Labor Day to have pennanted the distinguished Editor of the Journal and Guide for any office he might have desired to stand for had he not already made known through the business engagements and his doubt as to the wisdom of nominating a full ticket perennial such a result. I wish to emphasize the fact that it will damn good in this discussion to attempt to belittle the men and women who have been placed upon the ticket and who are leading this movement, nor is it just and fair, to impose their motives. It has always been difficult for me to understand Warns Pullman Porters Against The Conductors Denver Man Says Overtures To Colored Men Are Suspicious And Asks "Shall Judas Repeat?" Iy W. H. DeYOUNG DENVER, Colo., Oct. 19.—With the unsettled condition of the country, and its efforts to return to normal, the murmurings of the labor world, and their organizations, or making strenuous efforts to retain their power and solidarity in the new order of adjustments. In their familiar efforts to secure contracts to a class of labor hitherto entirely ignored—the Negro. With the history of the labor, organization from the beginning: "with out going into merits of same" it has always been their policy to bitterly present the Negroes' membership, and on rare occasion, membership was gained by their unjust rulings and discriminatory measures. "Twas made more than apparent they did not intend to play fair with him." In citation of an american institution of the periphery and Judaism let your mind go back to past victories, and forget not the outcome of some when the same propaganda was used a number of years ago to gain the Negro's strength to the ranks of the Watters' Union at Chicago, with the same Judas' promise, and the support of the loyal (2) union brotherhood. Their efforts were successful and they joined as a unit, and none were more loyal than they. The fight, though bitter, was shortly wiped, and immediately a fight by the union was immediately set in their color in their elimination their brother in every formary position he helped to gain. The elimination was so successful that he has never regained his former position. It is then, rather significant, that at this importune hour the Order of Sleeping ear Conductors are making such suspicious overtures to a class of labor, the Pullman Porter, and still more strange of their absolute refusal in the fast when conditions even far more propitious than now of their refusal to affiliate in any way that would benefit him. Under such conditions, to the thinking class of this line of labor would it not be far better to remain a freeance, independent as far as assimilation goes, and not to be tied down by unjust and prejudicial organizations with their past record so clearly shown. In the recent howl seat up to high heaven, quoting Mr. Warfield, by the Order of *Nieping* "Car" Conductors, their propaganda sent forth teeming limboes and subtle meanings insinuating the existence of by seeming pity. The public had known, Mr. McAdoe, has known likewise, the conductors, and the porter has absolutely known the confluent under which he, has labored for years, but Mr. Warfield in this seemingly sympathetic propaganda failed to state many salient facts in relation to porter work. That the incharge work of the Porter has been a feature of the Pullman Company, for years, both North and South, with no resultant evidence of bossism on the porter's part, and the patrons treated with that same courtesy that characterizes that class of Colored employees, chauleurs, butlers, and maids, as an intimate family life of the South, just as the Warfield should let his future public articles of seeming pity for us be tempered with the spirit of play fair and not filled with subtleties purposely made to cast discredit and suspicion upon us for the benefit of a chosen few. It is not my intent or desire to enter into, intoo and ethical question of the principle of labor organizations as applied to us. In theory their purposes read well but like the Fourteenth and Fifteenth. Amendment, in practice their treaties are sadly changed when applied to us. FIVE RULES FOR FURNITURE BUYING The Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 19, - That the average American citizen does not know how to furnish tastefully a house, and that few who do are hard put to and anything approximating real art, were statements approximated today as dead end of the Art Institute's extension. Following are Mr. Chance's five rules for furniture buying: Never buy furniture just because it is in a prevailing style. In two years another latest lifting will make it as obsolete as a what-not. Never buy furniture "just for new." Never buy any furniture in a hurry. You will repent at leisure. Never buy any highly polished furniture. People of moderate means—never, but anything you cannot afford to buy. "Furniture should be regarded as a life investment and a life companion," said Mr Crane. "And you want to choose life comparisons with care." Rooster Getting Lady-Like The Associated, Negro Press COLD SPRINGS, HARBOR, L. L.

Children In School 87 Per Cent. WASHINGTON, D. C., 1912. The population of the state of Missouri as recently announced by the Bureau of the Census. Department of Commerce is 947 per cent white and 5.2 per cent Negro. In 1910 the percentage Negro was 18. The Negro population, which was 157.52, increased to 178.24 in 1920, an increase of 13.2 per cent. The white population in the same period increased from 5.131.932 to 5.225.044 or 29 per cent. A little of one-third (21.3 per cent) of the white population of the state is of foreign birth or foreign percentage, there being 185.03 foreign-born whites, 300.04 native whites who had foreign-born parents, and 205.01 who had one foreign-born parent the year before. The rest of the white population, numbering 2,538.966, are native americans born of native American parents. They constitute a little over three-fourths (178.7 per cent) of the total white population and a little less than three-fourths (174.5 per cent) of the total population of the state. In addition to the whites and the Negroes the total population includes 171 Indians, 412 Chinese, 155 Japanese, 35 Filipinos, 15 Hindus, and 4 Koreans. In most counties of the state the percentage of Negroes has decreased and in 50 of the 115 counties there was also a decrease in the number of Negroes. | County | 1920 | 1910 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | State | 5.2 | 4.8 | | Adair | 0.5 | 1.0 | | Andrew | 0.7 | 0.9 | | Archbison | * | 0.1 | | Audrain | 7.9 | 7.5 | | Barry | * | * | | Barton | 0.1 | 0.1 | | Bates | 0.8 | 0.9 | | Beeton | 0.8 | 0.9 | | Bollinger | 0.1 | 0.2 | | Boone | 11.7 | 14.7 | | Boehannan | 4.6 | 4.8 | | Butler | 6.0 | 6.7 | | Caldwell | 1.1 | 1.9 | | Callaway | 14.0 | 14.4 | | Camden | 0.3 | 0.4 | | Cape Girardeau | 5.2 | 7.2 | | Carrol | 3.3 | 4.1 | | Carlen | 0.1 | * | | Cass | 1.7 | 2.2 | | Celar | * | 0.1 | | Charlton | 8.3 | 9.5 | | Christian | 0.1 | 0.5 | | Clark | 0.3 | 0.9 | | Clay | 1.7 | 5.2 | | Clinton | 1.3 | 5.0 | | Cole | 8.7 | 9.8 | | Cooper | 12.5 | 14.2 | | Crawford | 0.1 | 0.3 | | Dade | 1.2 | 1.5 | | Dallas | * | * | | Davless | 1.0 | 1.5 | | DeNally | 0.6 | 0.5 | | Dem | * | 6.1 | | Douglas | * | * | | Dunklin | 0.4 | 0.5 | | Franklin | 3.4 | 4.6 | | Gassonade | 0.1 | 0.5 | | Gentry | 0.1 | 0.1 | | Greene | 3.3 | 4.1 | | Grundy | 0.8 | 0.9 | | Harrison | 0.2 | 0.1 | | Hensey | 2.7 | 3.1 | | Hickory | * | 0.1 | | Holi | 0.6 | 0.8 | | Howard | 13.5 | 20.1 | | Howell | 0.6 | 0.6 | | Iron | 0.9 | 2.1 | | Jackson | 8.7 | 8.8 | | Jasner | 1.0 | 1.5 | | Jefferson | 4.4 | 5.6 | | Johnson | 4.2 | 4.8 | | Knox | 1.1 | 1.4 | | Laclede | 1.2 | 1.2 | | Lafayette | 7.9 | 9.5 | | Lawrence | 0.3 | 0.3 | | Lewis | 5.0 | 4.5 | | Lincoln | 6.9 | 8.0 | | Linn | 1.9 | 2.0 | | Livingston | 2.2 | 2.1 | | McDonald | * | * | | Macon | 2.0 | 2.3 | | Madison | 1.9 | 2.5 | | Macon | * | 0.1 | | Marion | 8.0 | 9.5 | | Mercer | 0.1 | 0.3 | | Miller | 0.3 | 0.6 | | Mississippi | 10.2 | 13.8 | | Montreal | 3.5 | 3.5 | | Monroe | 5.6 | 6.2 | | Montgomery | 6.8 | 7.5 | | Morgan | 2.7 | 3.2 | | New Madrid | 7.7 | 10.8 | | Newton | 1.3 | 2.0 | | Nodaway | * | 0.5 | To Erect Monument To Negro War Heroes Fitting Memorial to Soldiers Slain in France to Be Placed in Near Future in Beautiful Washington Park Cemetery.

Natural Bridge and Brown roads it was announced, yesterday by John B. Muth, manager of the cemetery. Muth said that plans for the monument had practically been completed and that it would be built at the expense of the Cemetery Association. It also announced by Muth that mechanical work on their hard- wound would be planted in Washington Park, one tree for each colored soldier, or sailor from St. Louis and vicinity. Who died in the service of his country. Already five Negro soldiers, whose bodies were brought back from France, have been buried in Washington Park Cenctery and it is expected by those in charge that more will be given mili- tary funerals there in the special section reserved for the American Legion.

Lange, one of the most beautiful colleges in St. Louis County. The tract is about seventy-six acres in size and of this eighteen acres has been subdivided into burial lots and part of the remainder, a grove of twenty acres, is being used as a picnic grounds for church organizations, lodges and other similar bodies. The cemetery and recreation grounds are separated by a fence. The former Lang residence, a two story mansion, which used to be known as one of the most beautiful in St. Louis County is being used as a sex station office for the cemetery management.

OCT. 12, 1921]—The Census Bureau reports that in the population of St. Louis, Mo., as enumerated in January, 1920, were 17,651 persons 10 years of age or over who were illiterate in the sense of being unable to write including 2,333 native whites, 10,227 foreign-born whites, and 4,906 Negroes. The percentage of illiteracy in the total population 10 years of age and over is 2.7, which shows a decrease since 1910 when it was 3.7. For the native white the percentage is 0.5, for the foreign-born whites 10.1, and for the Negro, 3.2. That the younger generation in this city is less illiterate than the older, is indicated by the fact that while 3.0 per cent of the males and 3.7 per cent of the females 21 years of age and over are illiterate, the percentage of illiteracy in the population 16 to 20 years of age is but 0.5. Springfield, Missouri, illiteracy WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 12. The Census Bureau reports that in the population of Springfield, Md., as enumerated in January, 1020, there were 615 persons 10 years of age or older who were illiterate in the population being unable to read. In addition, 314 foreign born whites and 157 Negroes. The percentage of illiteracy in the total population 10 years of age and over is 1.9, which shows a decrease since 1910 when it was 2.4. For the native white the percentage is 1.5, for the foreign-born white. 3.2, and for the Negro. 13.3. That the younger generation in this city is less illiterate than the older W. L. Perry, treasurer, and C. K. Robinson, secretary. Elevates Colored Race Speaking yesterday of the purposes of the Washington Park enterprise and touching upon the objections of white residents to the cemetery, Manager Muth said that the principal purpose of establishing the cemetery had been to give them a decent and beautiful place to bury their dead. "We anticipated some objection on the part of some of the residents around there," said Muth, "but we thought we were doing a great public service in giving the St. Louis Negroes a decent cemetery. They have got to bury their dead somewhere and this beautiful cemetery will paternally help in elevating the colored race. We have set aside at Washington Park special grounds for the fallen heroes of Plymouth and Plymouth Collegiate Fellows. Masons and other fraternities; for the Baptists and the Methodists. "The plight of recreation grounds have nothing to do with the cemetery portion of our grounds. They were /established merely for the reason that we had plenty of beautiful grounds, so that we could give the Negroes of St. Louis and vicinity a proper and respectable place for their outings and recreation. We conducted under the strictest supervision of those in charge of the association. We feel that we are providing two things badly needed: a modern cemetery and a modern recreation grounds. Jointly owned but separately operated, one in no way conflicting with the other. No charge is made for the use of the grove." The Washington Park enterprise is controlled by a holding company of the Circuit Attorney Sidney. Including Circuit Attorney Sidney. Judge M. G. Reynolds, Attorney Chase Morley and others. HAYNES LOOKING AFTER INTERESTS OF NEGROES AT LABOR CONFERENCE The Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. E—Dr. George E. Haynes, former Director of Economics in the Department of Labor, accepted an invitation from President Harding to be a member of the Labor Conference, called by the President to work out a solution for the unemployment difficulties. The telegram from President Harding extending the invitation, stated: "I am desirous of including your name in the conference on unemployment which opened in Washington on September 26. The object of the conference is to inquire into the volume and distribution of unemployment, to advise upon emergency, measures that can be properly taken by employees and local authorities and civic bodies and to consider such measures as tend to give impulse to the recovery of business and commerce to normal. "I would be glad to have your acceptance. WARREN G. HARDING* Dr. Haynes accepted by telegram and took his seat in the Conference. He was assigned special work with the "Committee on Community Civic and Emergency Measures" in dealing with unemployment. Col. Arthur Woods of New York is chairman of this committee. Urban League Active In a statement to The Associated Negro Press, the National Urban League takes credit for the part it played in having racial representation. Says the statement: "Word has reached the office of National Urban League that following numerous conferences and considering Harding, Secretary of Commerce Hoover and Edward E. Smith, Secretary of the Unemployment Conference, Negroes are being represented formally at the Conference. "Eugene Kleinie Jones, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League, kept in constant communication with the authorities, before the first list of conferences was announced and held interviews with two important Negro leaders, soon after the announcement shooting that no Negro had been appointed was made public. Many branches of the league also corresponded with the officials responsible for it. "Dr. George Edmund Haynes, is representative, formally appointed to the conference and Mr. Phil H. Brown, Commissioner of Conclusion of the Department of Labor, is appearing at public hearings to give expert testimony on the unemployment situation and on the announcement the appointment, Mr. Hunt wrote to Mr. Jones in part as follows: THE TRADE MAKER PAGES 7-12 COLORED VOTE OF LOUISVILLE IS 45 PER CENT OF G.O.P. TOTAL Race Getting Less Than One Percent Recognition For Loyal Support. Party Cannot Carry Election Without Negro Support. LOUISVILLE, KY. Oct. 19. **The Colored cohorts of the "Republican" machine—the microcaries—the paid folks who think more of the "advertising" money and the $100 salaries they receive now than the future good of the race; profess to be jubilant and are glongting over what they call the smaller number of people who "independent" - 579. They may be delighted in their ignorance of what that portends but their bosses are not so sanguine. Their bosses, who are real politicians, know that if 579 Colored people registered "Independent" in the face of the intimidation practiced on the speakers of the Lincoln Independent party and in the face of the fact that at every voting place the bosses who urged and pleaded with registrants to register "Republican" they know that the "Independent" registration is at least one-tenth of the "Independent" vote. The News, with sublime faith in the intelligence and commonsense and race love in the majority of the people, has always felt 10,000 Colored people would vote the Independent ticket as a rebuke to the Lily-White "Republican" machine and because they could elect Coryell to the office of course. The News did not figure on the intimidation of speakers and distributors of Lincoln party literature. But in spite of all that 579 Colored men and women have badly registered "Independent" and it is not too much to say that 5,000 of the registered "Republicans" will vote this ticket—they having registered "K" because of their jobs, connections and because they did not want to be harrassed from now until election. The object of the Lincoln Republican party is to teach the "Republican" man lesson that they have the Norwegian face with impunity and at election time square them up and get all their votes. This will be proven November 8. There are scores of workers right out from headquarters who worked for the "Republicans" who will vote for the "Independent" ticket. Many persons have made excuses to Lincoln party people that they were for the movement but just had to make the money so are working for the "Republicans". The Workers ago a Lincoln man came. The Workers office of work. Can the Lincoln party use me to canvass the march or pass literature so I can make a living? He was told that the Lincoln party could only pay a limited number of workers and then only a small salary. ) ) ) he just had to have work he could get it by going to "Republican" headquarters and knocking the Lincoln movement. "But" he said. "I do not want to do anything." I think it is the best thing ever attempted for the Race. I am not for this Republican. I am an Independent." This man was finally convinced the Lincoln people would understand and that if it was a case of "bread and butter" in take the "Republican" money for "working" and he could vote for the "Independent" ticket and "talk" for it just the same. He left and later was said this man was a "Republican" publican. This incident is true and is encouraging proof that the registration is no proof of Lincoln party strength. The need of the Lincoln Independent party was never more forcibly shown than in the result of the registration. Look at the figures: 58,333 Republicans, 26,549 Colored Republicans. This gives the Colored vote 45 per cent of the Republican strength. Without them, the Republicans could never support the royal support the Colored people get. Segregated in the public parks, segregated at the State fair, segregated at the Harding meeting, beaten by rough neck policemen, robbed and defeated when they ask for fice, women insulted by advertisin, for husky Negro women to sween stairs, introduction of " Jim-crow" street, bill by Republicans two months after election, no appointment to offices really worth while. And a wide-open town of dives and crap games and booftighting joints was vicious. Negro to be lawless and criminal. No colored man or woman of intelligence can say that the Lincoln Independent movement is wrong or ought not to be supported. Remember this colorful man in Colorado.

"When the colored people have such friends among the best white people in the South as the friends I saw and heard at the Atlanta meeting of the Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation. It is not fair for discouragement and it is not fair against the Negro," said Dr. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, in a recent Sunday-sevening address, in which he outlined the societal "opportunity meeting" of the Commission. Dr. Gregg referred to the work which is being done by inter-racial committees in 800 counties of South Carolina in eliminating causes of friction and to "stopping trouble before it really gets started." Dr. Gregg said: "Dr. Ashby Jones of Atlanta, who is one of the sons of General Lee's chaplain, said, that in laying down the fundamental principle that every person ought to be heard in his own behalf "he right to be heard in his own commission has found opposition consistent, particularly from three sources, from representatives of the 'old fetal spirit' from the representatives of industrialism, and from the representatives of ignorance." Jones also said that "the hope and redemption of man depends on our stand by the principles that 'every man has a right to be heard.'" American democracy in the continuity in the state and nation Dr. Gregg declared that there is a tremendous body of ignorance through out the United States. "This is shown in the organized devilty of Ku-Kluism." he said. "The Ku-Kluism-Klause could not exist, except for ignorance and superstition and foolishness. People could not be led into such abominable folly as Ku-Kluism, if it were not for ignorance." Says Center Of Education Has Shifted To Chicago Special to The Argus CHICAGO, Oct. 19—Chicago is the center of high learning in America, said Dr. Walter Dill Scott, president of Northwestern University to the thousands who attended the festival play in Grant Park Stadium. Scott and Dr. Howard Agnew Johnston, president of the Chicago Church, Federation who spokeers on Sunday's program. The festival, which was held under auspices of the Chicago Association of Commerce, commemorated the great fire of 1871. Quoting from the 1920-21 report of the commissioner of education, Dr. Scott told the center of education has shifted from New England to this city. "For three centuries," he said, "New England has been regarded as the center of higher learning in America. During the last half century this center has shifted to the Hudson River. Ten years ago New York began to insist that the transition was complete. Before New York had time to establish her claim the center again shifted and has become securely established at the meeting point of the Lake Lakes and the Mississippi valley. There are thirty-two institutions of higher learning in Chicago, compared to twenty-one in New York, twenty-two in Boston and nineteen in Philadelphia. The Chicago group includes six universities in logical schools, eight law, six medical and three dental schools. Professor Scott compared the groups in quality and attendance.

The Periscope ADMINISTRATION POLICY AND US The Associated Negro Press President Harding is formulating his policies, on the big questions of the day: Torif, Taxation and Armament, the public has been given a very clear opinion of Administration' policy. On these questions, so far as popular sentiment is concerned, the President is on the popular side. His conclusions have not a ready response from people and press, and the Republican political machinery, the practical machinery, the practical side of the "Great Advance", may be quoted as saying, "With this we are all well pleased." In the matter of sub-divided interests, many in number, the President has not previously expressed himself sufficiently in a public way, to give the people a definite slant of his exact trend of thought, of the policies he intends to pursue, in working out the administration program. So far as we are concerned, the biggest by-subject affecting us is the subject of ourselves, and what the Administration proposes to do in one way and another. This subject forms a major part of our daily life. We can discern our thoughts from ourselves in many things, but in the vital matter of citizenship opportunity, personal and property protection, welfare and wellbeing, we wish to know the facts, and we have a right to know the facts. Mr. Harding became president with the host, wishes and prayers of all colored Americans. With his inauguration, there was an unusual degree of hopeful anticipation. The fine public utterances of Mr. Harding the candidate, of Mr. Harding, the newly inaugurated President, and of President Harding in his first address to the Congress, gave vital force to the newly awakened faith.^ Then came the meeting of the Republican National Committee, in Washington; through appointment of certain men from the South, of certain known tendencies, so far as New York had been the meeting of Republicans in Virginia, in Georgia, and reports from various conferences of visiting delegations, and individuals, to the White House; and the feathers of the faithful began to fall, they felt, they have fallen: The result follows, with margin-like rapidity, whereas the Republican party and the new Administration were once praised, they are now cursed and damned, in no uncertain terms; and the trouble is not confined to any particular section. It is universal, there is no question about that. Justification for this unusual condition—certainly for agress a year before a general election—be judged by further developments. The Associated Negro Press, in behalf of the 12,000,000 people of the group, has sought to get at first hand information on the matter of Administration policy, so far as we are concerned. It has sought that information at the top, and it has secured it, and the people shall know, and knowing it, is hoped that, in some way, somehow, the "truth shall make you free." The Harding Administration is different: It can be compared with no other, not even that of Mr. Taft; it may rise or fall by its own record, which is now in the making. In the matter of legislation, directly affecting the group, there have been ample evidences of Administration sympathy and activity, although none of this has yet reached completion. But, in all fairness, it must be recognized that many of the big measures affecting all classes and groups have not reached completion. There is assurance that these measures will not be left to die. In the matter of political recognition there is assurance that other appointments will follow the confirmation of Henry Lincoln Johnson, who is now certain to be Recorder of the Court. There is assurance that Colored American examination, like the Civil Service examination, and properly qualify, will not be discriminated against because of color. This is a step in advance. It is well known that for more than eight years, Civil Service ramifications have been sizzling hot with prejudice. In the matter of Negro appointments in the South the conclusion has been definitely reached by the Administration, that irritation of conditions there will not be added to. by the appointment of Negroes to Federal positions South. Moreover, the President, and the Republican organization, have decided that the Republican party in the South shall definitely and consciously be under white leadership, is believed that white leadership of the South will Policies so unusual, and steps so radical, are certain to rebound with disappointment and great dissatisfaction, so far as Colored people are concerned. Already, the course of events has created a degree of turnover that will be most difficult to allay with legislation, appointments, or other means of persuasion of faith. The result is the springing up of many independent movements of renewed efforts by the Socialists to turn the Democrats in Northern states, to take advantage of what they claim to be Republican desertion. It will be the job of the Republican National Committee, to show cause for not having Colored American citizens set in and "hustle for themselves"—by the way, a suggestion in that respect being recalled from no less an authority than President Harding himself, in his address at Lincoln University. The house divided against itself. There are those who believe that the troubles are to be fought out within the party, and there are those who believe they should get out entirely, before being kicked out in a broken dozen. The theory of Kipiing is accepted by many that "The Colonel's lady and Yellow O'Grady are sisters under the skin." When it comes to comparing a white Democrat of Republican of the South. There is widespread evidence that the Administration policies, directed at, or for, Negroes of the South, will find lesse sympathy in the voting North. THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS. FRIDAY, OCT., 21, 1921 will be used to good purpose, and with unlimited resourceful thoughtfulness in playing the game for position and racial opportunity. The Republican Administration, under President Harding, has declared its position. The question is on, whether to bear these ilis that we have, or fly to others that we know not of? Are you ready for the question? DISARM (By William Pickens The Associated Negro Press What is blessing it would be if it could be. In some future age it may be. Now it will be—not quite dismantment. And so far as that, goes it will be so much relief. Does the citizen realizes that every time he pays one dollar to this government, eighty-eight cents of it, goes as tribute or as a sacrifice to War? Every time our "billion dollar government" spends a billion, eight hundred and eighty millions of the sum go into the mouth of Mars. What, then, if we get rid of war and all its exaction? It may help us on the ground the Golden Age of war. If we will but think over what would be our blessed state if only we could arrive. If the United States of America could be rid of its war burden, the following three things could be done and happen all at once: 1 The salaries and wages of all Federal officers and employees could be doubled, from the President on down to the janitor of the post office at Sloeum, Alabama. All the tens and tens of thousands of government employees could get just twice as much pay. All the Sussexists might get twice as much easy money and all the grafters that are now wasted, two dollars might be wasted, and mall thieves and other thieves might steal just twice as much; and yet. 2 Taxes could be cut half in two. People who now pay a thousand dollar Federal tax, could pay only five hundred; and people who pay fifty dollars could pay twenty-five; and yet. 3 The Federal Government would have more money than it could use or know what to do with. For every dollar borrowed, another dollar added to the burdens of the treasury department. And the most serious financial problem before the Congress would be what to do with the extra money. This extra money could give every child in the United States an education from the kindergarten through the university. And yet all this is not going to happen not soon, for our fathers have been hurt and that they have burdened us with the costs of past wars, and we, sons of our fathers, are so selfish that we burden ourselves and mortgage the life of our posterior by the threat of future wars. And yet it is well to consider what might have been and what may yet be the vision that gradually lead us on A NAPOLEAN OF FINANCE By Association, he is a really big business man of the colored world. American is E. C. Brown, bankers of Philadelphia, Pa. The superiority of the few is an inadvertible instinct, one cannot get away from. E. C. Brown went to Philadelphia ten years ago. At that time, with the exception of a few barrooms, restaurants, and barbershops and a few undertakers the Colored people of Philadelphia had no business existence. With his astonishing courage, resourcefulness, superior brain and thought, Mr. Brown has inspired the masses of his people quite as a distinguished achievement, because few men of any age or any race possess within themselves that driving power of the peculiar quality which proves to be an inspiration to the two groups at one and the same time. STRONG DEFENSE OF COLORED REPUBLICAN TICKET OF VIRGINIA CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 zen can attribute base motives to others without concrete proof. Ples For Expedience I never can subscribe to the editor's plea for expedition when a vital principle is involved. I quote from the Republican platform, this doctrine, on which we base our hope for the suffrage of the Colored Electorate. "No mere expedition, however urgent the call for its exercise should be permitted to destroy fundamental principles of our party." Finally, I will not take the time to comment upon the Editor's suggestion that we divide our vote between the Democratic Party and the Lily White so-called Republican Party, for it is as impossible for a self-remembrance Negro in Virginia to be a Democrat in principle as it is for a Lily White Ex-Democrat, to be a Republican in this State except for office of revenue. Favor Race Voting As Unit The Journal and Guide classes its instructor would like to ask him (J. Thomas Newsome) if he is earnestly and sincerely in favor of the race voting as a unit in (his future). My answer is that I am sincerely and unqualifiedly in favor of the Negro voting the Republican ticket as a unit this year and next year and continually as long as there is hope that the party of Lincoln, Douglas and Grant may return. And if it turns out that the party has finally departed from its fundamental principles then it is my desire and earnest prayer to God that the Negro may still make an organization as a unit and program to all the world the decree of political and civil equality of all men before the law irrespective of race, race, color or condition. section. State aid is available for new schools on the same terms for both white and colored schools. The Southern Educational and Sociological Congress will be held, under the auspices of the southern Cooperative League, at Chattanooga, Tennessee. November 6th to 9th. The program takes up Education, Public Health, and Race Relations. An Educational and sociological exhibit will be an important feature of the convention. Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of the Philips-Stokes Foundation has just returned with his committee of experts from a year's study of the educational policies of the County of Africa. This work was undertaken at the request of the various mission Boards of the United States, England, Belgium and France, and had the active cooperation of the governments of all these countries. As a result of the survey the governments and boards concerned will probably cooperate in common educational plans for this great region. South Carolina has operated nine summer schools this summer for colored teachers with an attendance of between 1,400 and 1,450. Twenty-four counties in South Carolina now have Jones supervisors. City schools are also being improved. Eleven colored schools have been accepted by the state Board of Education, as high schools to receive state aid. In each case this action was recommended by the white district trustees. Ninety colored school principals and supervisors were sent this summer from South Carolina to the summer schools of Hampton and Tuskegee. Through their summer work for teachers these two schools are influencing Negro life all over the South. Both institutions are in close analytic sympathetic touch with every state Department of Education in the Southern states and their thorough work (in their inspiring ideals, their gospel, intelligent work, high moral standards, and inter-facial good will) are bearing witness in institutions of diverse communities. They stand for opportunity to the Negro to the full extent of his ability and are showing all over the South, that the Negro's development promotes the interests of both races. Women's Inter-Bacial Work The first Arkansas conference of women to consider inter-racial relations was recently held in Little Rock. It was a representative gathering, and was characterized by the same earnestness as the Memphis conference last fall. Three colored women were present to speak by invitation of the need for cooperation from white women for the protection of Negro women, children and homes. This cooperation the members of the conference will endeavor to secure in local, communities through the women's church and other organizations which they represent. The Y. W. C. A. held a very successful conference for colored workers this summer at Kings Mountain. N. C. member the direction of white and colored officers of the Association. The cities represented were Richmond, Norfolk, Newport News, Petersburg and Lynchburg, VA.; Charlotte, Winston-Salem and Asheville, N. C.; Greenville, Charleston and Columbia, S. C.; and Atlanta and Augsburg, Ga. Since the Y. W. C. A. organizes colored associations only in those cities where the white Y. pledges its co-operation, it will be seen that this method of inter-racial helpfulness is growing among the white women of the South. White and Colored Frangers Stand Together When tobacco fell from fifty to seventeen cents a pound several thousand growers launched a cooperative tobacco association, to include Virginia and the two Carolina, for collective marketing of their product after the plan of the very successful trucking associations of eastern Virginia. No marketing will be attempted in any state until at least fifty per cent of its growers have signed a five year contract with the association. The Carolina's contract is rapidly to this standard, and Virginia, where organization has been considerably longer in progress, has already passed it, with more signers coming in every day. Collective marketing of the 1922 crop in that state is now assured. Suggest in such an undertaking is manifestly impossible with the Newgro farmer left out; and the appeal has been made to growers of tobacco irrespective of race. The same advantages are offered to all. The responses of the colored farmers of Virginia shows their belief in the good faith of their white neighbors. A white tobacco grower writes: "The colored tobacco growers of Virginia have helped to win a great economic victory for the farmers of our state. This is worth-white for inter-racial good-will and cooperation." Bethlehem House, Nashville, Tenn., a community centre for colored people operated by women of the Southern Methodist Missionary Council, will be closed for a year, while its new building is being erected. The work has for years had the active cooperation of the faculty and students of Vanderbilt University and the colored university. Flask; and its growth has made necessary a larger and permanent house. The two kindergartens and many of the clubs will find temporary shelter this winter in the various neighborhoods to which they minister. A feature of the summer work, before the old building was abandoned, was a vacation Bible school which had a re The Woman's Auxiliary of the Southern Presbyterian Church held this session to confer on comfort for colored women. To the initial September meeting at Tuscaloosa, Ala., were added conferences at Cambria, Va., and Atlanta, Ga. Courses in Bible study were given, talks on community better ment, sanitation, care of children and the sick, instruction, ground work. These courses were given by both white and colored leaders men and women.

They keep in touch with their delegate after her return, cooperating with her in the colored community. Through these auxiliaries as well as through the colored workers themselves the Woman's Board receives follow-up reports from communities in every state in the South. Those reports show much church and welfare work among colored people, and much cooperation between the women of the two races, which owes her beginning to these nearly comfort ones.

Age in Missouri WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 12, according to the census of 1820, 292 cent, or about three-tenths of the people in this state of Missouri are infants or children under 15 years of age; 99 per cent are young people 15 to 19 years old; 383 per cent, about two fifths, are men and women in the prime, of life being from 20 to 44 years old; while 282 per cent, being 15 years of age and were, are well along in the middle life if they have not reached old The urban population as compared with the rural shows some rarity striking differences in age, the percentage 20 to 44 years of age, 44.2 for the urban population as compared with 33.1 for the rural, while the percentage under 15 years is 24.0 in the urban population as against 34.2 in the rural. These differences indicate larger families of children in the country than in the city, but probably indicate also the fact that country children as they grow up have a tendency to flock to the cities thereby increasing active life at the expense of the rural districts. Just about three-fifths of the population, 35.9 per cent are old enough to vote, being 21 or over; and in this class the men outnumber the women in the ratio of 104 to 109. The number of military age, 18 to 44, constitute 41.0 per cent of the population and 29.7 per cent of the total population. School Attendance in Missouri School Attendance in Missouri WASHINGTON, D.

Much interest was manifested by the women of the National Capital in the three-day institute and conference on social hygiene which was held in the Interior Department auditorium last week under the auspices of the District health department; the United States Public Health Service; the District Social Hygiene Society and the women's alyssory council of the public health service. The institute was the result of the success of the institute on venereal disease control and social hygiene held here last autumn, and is one of a number arranged for various states. Its of interest is to create a statewide program of the great problem to be faced and to focus on specific needs of the local health program the interests and efforts of local leaders and leaders of such large national organizations as are residents of Washington. Dr. H. I. Hazez, chairman of the bureau of public health of the District of Columbia Social Hygiene Society presided over the opening session devoted to the topic "The Problem from the Medical Angle." Dr. D. M. O'Rollinson of the Public Health Service and Dr. Kate Kardasel, Mrs. Edith Houghton Hooker of Baltimore and Miss Margaret S.

Terrell, who well represented the classes of the leaders among the Colored people of Washington are entering fully into every movement which has for, its purpose some beneficial results to the people. GOV. HYDE FAVORS BONUS FOR EX-SERVICE MEN GOV. HYDE FAVORS BONUS FOR EX-SERVICE MEN Federal personal intervention at the Stein Capital, at Jefferson, Mo. I have watched both branches of the Legislation and I have with great pleasure paid close attention to our Hon. Gov. Arthur M. Hyde how strong he was for the ex-service men, since his term of office began. He has at all times showed a special disposition to give them his personal attention. He was at the time of the Regular Session service men and at the Extra Session he insisted in his special call for a bonus for the ex-service men, and now he has consummated to call another special session to put the Soldiers. Bonus law into operation. Above all our governor has allowed the honorable American Region today up the bill to show in the ex-service men of the State of Missouri that he is their friend. I am proud to say that the Honorable Arthur M. Hyde in the past nine months has advocated more laws for the benefit of the ex-service men of the State of Missouri than any governor in the United States has at any time. Now it is a strange thing to me in as much as our governor has done all of this for the ex-service men of Missouri that the Legion of the State does not extend to him a vote of thanks for some of his kind hearted acts he has caused to be carried out for their betterment as a whole. I do not think that the governor should be censured for the appointment of Mr. Steinbeck. This reminds me of the distress cry for help when he was rescued and his life saved and when he came to himself and found out I saved his life and lost his hat, he wanted to fight me because I did not save his hat. I think the governor should be praised. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 19.

After certain substitutions and eliminations of materials had been made by the architects to bring the total within the appropriation, the Board recommended he award of the several contracts to the above builders; the recommendation having been approved by the Secretary of the Interior. The work of excavation has already begun, and the materials are now being high, and the building will be ready for occupancy about March 1, 1922. By an executive order of the President of the United States, all plans for public buildings, statues, parks, etc. within the District of Columbia, must be submitted for Judgment, to the District of Columbia, a body composed of the following gentlemen—Mr. Charles Moore, Chairman; Mr. John Russell Pope, Mr. James L.

The Commission has reported to the Secretary of the Interior their approval of the plans, the first plans designed by Negro Architects to have been submitted to this high authority for official endorsement. In appearing of the plans for the new Dining Hall and Home Economics Building, Mr. Charles Moore Chairman of the Fine Arts Commission, has written: "The plans and location (Dining Hall and Home Economics Building) were approved by the Commission. The time now seems propitious for a general plan for the development of Howe and University which is going to occupy a large and important area in the District of Columbia, and the proper development of which institution can add very much to the campus of the City. This fact can also help when one considers that the University grounds job is at McMullan Park, which in turn brings the Soldier Home grounds, onto the Soldier, House grounds. The authorizes of the University, with the advice of the Commission of Fine Arts, are able competent to make such a plan." Next in importance are the improvements in and about Science Hall, consisting of a shaken concreted area twenty feet wide along the front and two sides of the building, with retaining wall and stems wrapped parapet walls and surrounding grounds. This work has added greatly to the appearance of the building and cost about $25,000. It has also been built down the derried slay from the Chapel of a concrete walk leading to Science Hall, intersecting a similar walk from the Hall to the Administration Building. An important improvement has also been made in the Girl's Dormitory (Miner Hall) by the installation of a bath room on the third floor. Similar ones were installed on the first and second floors last year. Miner Hall has now on each of its upstaged bath rooms with tiled walls, and floors, furnished with ample showers and other fixtures of the most approved sanitary type. They cost nearly $4,900.00 each. Dormitory (Cha Hall) eight showers were installed in the basement and other improvements of a sanitary nature costing about $2,500.00, not counting the elaborate sanitary improvements made during the Summer of 1920. The appearance and convenience of the Main Administration Building has both greatly enhanced by the installation of new electric lights in the halls and in every class room, and drinking fountains in the halls. Many minor improvements have been made, including palating and the laying out of large beds of ornamental plants, on the campus. The University Administration is being congratulated on all hands for the excellent appearance of both buildings and grounds. The Medical School buildings at Fifth, N.W. Streets and the Law School building at 120 Fifth Street, N.W. have also received considerable attention. This improvement which have been made add much to comfort of the large number of students enrolled. Fifth Annual Convocation At Howard University WASHINGTON, D.

Oct 12 - In India we are looking to Hampton Institute to Tuskegee, and to Bora to teach us what kind of education we need, because we say we need badly something besides literary education" declared Prof. Charles D. Thompson of Ewling Christian College, Allahabad, India, in a recent address at Hampton Institute. "The students of India" said Professor Thompson, are yearning for a new kind of education. They are not satisfied with what they are getting. R. A.'s and M. A.'s in India - with the highest degree - go out and take posts as exeuse inspectors, positions which, in this country, would be filled by men, who perhaps had not even finished high school. Lawyers who have gone on, after that and gone through law college earn as much as $10 million in the old big merchants and businessmen will not send their goods to colleges. Leaders in agriculture say, "our sons are made third-rate clerks and are taken away from us."

The line up of the Roger team was practically a new one. Dabney- Johnson, Gray and Grays being the only members of last year's sound. The game was hard fought and some what fast and only the stubborn resistance put up by the Pearl High Team saved them from a more disastrous defeat than is shown by the final score. From the beginning it should be seen that the Pearl High Team was out-posed. The Regeer Team was slightly heavier than the opponents. Both teams are to be congratulated for the clean sportsmanlike conduct, on the field. The touchdown for Roger were made by Dabby and Johnson in the first and third quarter respectively. The line up for Roger Williams was as follows: L. E. Smith, L. T. Gray, L. G. Nelson, C. Higgs, R. E. Morsse, Davis G. Asherby, Quarter Dabby, H. T. Thompson, R. H. Grays, Field Johnson.

James Ackerson, the author of the colored department of The Billboard, the foremost announcement publication of the country, was in the city for a few days. Mr. Jackson is touring the South in the interest of his magazine, getting first hand information concerning the various announcement enterprises in the Southland. Mr. Jackson was very much impressed with the prostrativeness which he was among the Negroes of Savannah. He was a business enterpriser, of the city and expressed himself as being pleased with the many signs of advancement which he saw there. It is of much interest and partic- larly pleasing to note the importance which the Billboard gives, Mr. Jackson's contributions and because of the prominence which the publisher W. H. Donidonon of The Billboard gives in the department which is edited by Mr. Jackson this very estimative theatrical magazine has a very high place in the heart of the thousands of Negroes who read it every week.

For the purpose of bringing about Disarmament and World Peace, and forced emigration and sympathetic administration, in response to popular sentiment, the conference is fast being transformed into a soilder effort to further the interests of the international banking syndicate at the expense of our already overburdened taxpayers. How is this being accomplished? The situation is clear—the process is simple. The European nations owe American dollars extracted from American taxpayers under stress of war, on which they have never paid one dollar either of interest or princek. The English, French, Belgian and Italian delegates frankly admit that they are seeking to utilize this occasion, to obtain a release from their debts. Walshing that the public dissection of this subject before the disarmament Conference would nouse a debate on the issue. Harding annuances that he is opposed to any such course, but demands that Congress without delay specifically confer upon Secretary Melton full power to privately settle these obligations upon any (crimes he may deem advisable to him). Secretary Melton has personally appeared before the W.W. Means Committee denouncing immediate action. Coincident with this demand comes a suggestion from the banking group (to which Secretary Mellon formerly belonged, that a concurrent conference with the European delegates be held, while the disarmament conference is in session, to adjust the financial situation). Every angle of the situation irritates with decept and secret diplomacy, every indication points to a betrayal of the just demands of the American public who "pardon it until it" to assist our allies in their extremity and are now in limpiex danger of being told that the money they generously loaned to England, France and Italy, and Belgium in good faith will never be returned, and that for years to come they will be moved to make up these vast sums which the European affairry are now seeking to repudiate. And it is proposed to bring this about through a separate course,亦指ence, under carte blanche authority, in which the American people will have no voice and of whose decision they will know nothing until the late. Anticipating previously the situation which has since developed, and forscaling the necessity of foretelling the action of the European delegates I suggested to President Harling under date of September 21 the desirability of averting the whiles of the American people relative to submitting an ultimatum, to the European delegates to the effect that we Really "Wicked" Jazz Band Spacious Out Door Dance Floor "Way Past The Minute' Entertainers NEW NOVELTIES IN DANCING SINGING AND MUSIC WONDERFUL "EATS" Cooked In A Spotless Kitchen All Kinds Soft Drinks Business is good Better than ever; So good that we need Clean Sweep Broom Salesmen to help us out.
