LYNCHING IS CALLED A COWARDLY CRIME
RECORDS SHOW 3224 VICTIMS OF MOB LAW
WASHINGTON. Nov. 1—Widely conflicting views on the anti-lynching bill, now before Congress, were presented to the "Hope yesterday in majority and minority reports from the judiciary committee.
The bill, introduced by Representative Dyera Republican, Missouri, would undertake to wipe out lynching by heavy penalties to be imposed on persons participating and officers charged with enforcing the peace. Counties in which persons are put to death by mobs also would be subjected to heavy fines in the Federal Court.
"Citing the demand in the platform adopted by the last Republican National Convention to end lynchings, the plea of President Harding in an address to Congress "to wipe out this barricade stain," and the appeal of President Wilson, in 1938, to citizens to help stop law, the majority report, prepare angressman Dyera, and marshal appeals against guns for naught and lynchings continue."
Called "Capredyall Crime," "Congress must provide the means for ending this capredyall crime," the report continued. "It is in pountaining those who take part in it, or who permit it."
"The prevalence in many states of the spirit which tolerates lynching accompanied too often with inhuman cruelty and the inability or unwillingness of the public authorities to punish the persons guilty of this crime, threaten very seriously the lives of those being blotted our fair name as a nation for we cannot calm to be civilized until our laws are respected and enforced and our citizens secured against the hideous cruelties of which we are constantly forbearing fresh examples." The report added that while it had been impossible to get accurate figures available records showed 3,242 persons had been lynched in the last six years, of which number are Negroes in the Minority Report. The minority report, presented by Representative Summers, Democrat, Texas, opposed the bill and contended it would tend to desire, the sense of local responsibility without adding to protection of the people.

ARMISTICE CRUSADE FOR EQUAL RIGHTS
Special To The Argus.
BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 31.—The National Headquarters of the National Equal Rights League, Rev. M. A. N. Shaw, president, at 34 Cornell hill, has the following bulletin and appeal:
The widespread dissemination of the Call of the National Equal Rights League, Rev. M. A. N. Shaw, president, for a National Equal Rights Armistice Day Observance, on Nov. 41 or the following Sunday, Nov. 13, by the Leading Colored newspapers of the country has arraised great interest in the move meant and many such equal Rights Observances are being planned. The object of justice in a double way, first by calling attention to the violation of the cause for which our soldier boys gave their lives and second by imbuaging a movement to send delegates to the Second World Democracy Congress of the League at Washington, Dec. 14-16 at the doors of the World Disbursement Conference, it is very desirable that all the meetings be held by the League. To this end, in record with the call issued the League asks that everybody join with the local Equal Rights League in holding the meeting where there is one or that a local league be formed for the purpose or an equal rights committee. Otherwise let the mass, meeting or meetings be held by any other organizations, or any churches or societies who will thus, help the League in holding the meeting. The secretary is asked to send a note of what was done to the Corresponding Secretary of the League, W. Monroe Trotter, 34 Cornell hill.
Mass Meetings which are to be part of this Equal Rights movement for a National Race Convention at the doors of this 2nd World Peace Conference, from which our delegates cannot be kept this time by the denial of passports, can be arranged or brief notice because the race is interested in this Arms Conference. A quick, strong, earnest,敢-Tag-Tag, dare-Tag-Tag, dare-Tag-Tag, will their remain for World Democracy Congress called and arranging to send delegates to this conducted by the League from local leagues, Equal Rights Committees, or any other race body. Credentials from any race body will entitle to full participation in the Congress.

GOV. HYDE SPEAKS NEGRO FIGHTS AMERICAN LEGION TO THE CAPITOL EXTRADITION POST SPLITS OVER REPUBLICAN CLUB TO OKLAHOMA GIFT FROM K. K. K.
Outlines Work Of Present Administration. Meeting Held In House Of Representatives at Jefferson City Last Friday Night
Special Correspondent for The Argus
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Oct. 29—Friday night, October 28, the recently organized Capitol Republican Club held a meeting a membership of over 200, held its second meeting with President Roy Monier in the chair and an attendance which taxed the House of Representatives. The meeting opened with the singing of America. A special committee was appointed to revise the by-law relating to meetings and dues and report at the next meeting, to be held Thursday, November 10.
An impressive event of the evening included a silent tribute paid to the memory of the revered Theodore Roosevelt by the audience which argues and bowed their heads for one full minute in memory of the departed leader, as was suggested in the proclamation of Gov Hyde, issued a few days previous.
Vice President Robert Hedrick, of the Secretary of State's office, Judge of the Court of Appeals, Commission, and Charles Miller of the General's office, were appointed as the committee to submit a new schedule for the collection of dues and the securing of members.
The Feature of the evening was the masterly and impressive address for nearly one hour of Gov. Arthur Hyde, who congratulated the Republicans present on the organization of the Capitol Republican Club and added that, if be kept free from personal advancement or for individual endorsement for office, Of especial interest to readers of St. Louis Argus was the pronounced declaration of Gov. Hyde of his willingness and determination to help develop Lincoln Institute into an educational institution second to none in the nation. It was particularly noticeable that but one person was present from the Institute to the club and employees at the meeting to hear Gov. Hyde's great address in support of the Lincoln Institute. Prof. Rose, who was the only one from Lincoln Institute present, and who is a member of the club, deserves credit for attending a meeting where such stamouth support of the Institute was declared for. In a general way Gov. Hyde touched on the many efforts made by his wife, Mrs. Hyde, and the people of the state. He declared that a better understanding of the legislation so far enacted under Republican control could be brought about by the members of the Capitol Republican Club, with much benefit to the Republican party of the State of Missouri.

The sheriff testified that he saw him marching in the front line of a crowd of "miggers" and saw him shoot a white boy. **Officer Give Managing Testimony** The sheriff testified that Smithie made a statement in the presence of Minneapolis officers that "if the boys had taken the advice of the colored deputy sheriffs on that night, it would not have happened" **Detectives Those Glennon and Shave Broderick**, corroded the testimony of Short, Smithie chains that he made a statement from the reports received in Kansas City and the accounts of the affair in the town of Tuban. **Jones Testified** that Smithie was the victim of the night of the riot.

Assst Attorney General Markham recompened the application for requisition. Attorney Hilder asked for time to lie a brief on the validity of the indictment and present arguments.

Texas Men Will Organize A New Post With Policies Strictly Against The Ku Klux Klan. "Birth Of Nation Also Opposed.
HOUSTON, Tex. Nov. 2 - A split has occurred here in the American Legion over the acceptance of 845 from the Ku Klux Klan by one of the posts. It is expected that another post will be organized at once which will adopt policies strictly against the klan.
Fight Made on Birth Of A Nation If the film play, "Birth of a Nation" comes here again it is certain a tight will be made to induce the city authorities to forbid its childbirth because of the prosecution of the picture. Foes of the klan in Dallas have partitioned the city authorities there to prevent the return of the picture, although it has been shown all over Texas in the post.
Confederate Veteran posts over Texas during the past week have received funds from the klan to enable veterans without means to attend the annual reunion at chattanooga.
A new feature developed in the fight against the klan here when District Judge Robinson, in charging his jury commission, instructed it to select men for the panel who belonged to the klan or to any other organization that met in taking the law in its own hands.
Those men who believe in meeting out punishment instead of letting the courts do so," he said, "are 100 per cent American instead of 100 per cent Americans, as they think they are."

Gilton "America's Greatest Triggerman" who is appearing at a local theatre here, as the star in "Emperor Jones." The hall was beautifully decorated with American flags and flowers. Long before the arrival of the guest, the crowd only the hall but the crowd helped hold it. At 11:45, amidst choirs of applause, Mr. Gilpin made his appearance, accompanied by Prof. F. L. Williams, who acted as master of ceremony. After a vocal selection by Prof. Gerald Tyler, the speaker was introduced by Dr. Amanda Gray, executive secretary of Wheatley Branch, W. W. C. A. In her introductory remarks, Dr. Gray said in part. St. Louis has been honored today. "We saw General Pershing and General Fowler as the city's leaders, and Mr. Gilpin, who has written his name in the Hall of Fame." In presenting Mr. Gilpin with a gold match case, Dr. Gray said, "As a token of our appreciation of what you have done and contributed to our race, on behalf of the citizens of St. Louis, I present to you this little token, not for its intrinsic value, but because it represents a thought, a hope and that you may keep it as a memorial of your gift to our audience." He assured his audience that he was not an orator and speechmaker, but he could shine when the footlights were between him and his audience.
In his remarks, however, it did not take Mr. Gilpin but a few minutes to convince his audience that he had given a deal of thought and study to his life's work.
"I did not know," said the speaker, "just what my career was going to be when I started out. But one thing I knew and that was, I was willing to work. As a bootlash, I wanted to be the best and the best. I have been chosen as one of the best."
Mr. Gilpin was very modest in his words with regard to himself. But said he was not slow when it came to business.
He accepted the hospitality of St. Louis as an agreeable surprise.
After the address, the audience was invaded with a vocal adjection by Prof. I. E. Jones, principal of Douglas High School of Columbia, Mo., who is attending the State University Association for.
A committee of two hundred officers acted as host to Mr. Gilpin.
A Square Deal For Every Man
RACE ISSUE IS SOLVED BY COOPERATION
Editor Of America At Work Tells Audience That Desire For Larger Freedom Should Be Encouraged.
CLASHES NATURAL AS THE RACE GOES EQWARD
In his plea for better relationship between the races, Paul W. Brown, editor of America at Work told a large audience at the Pine Street Department Y. M. C. A. last Sunday some of the things they might do to help bring about this condition. He told his hearers that service was the only basis of cooperation that was required. The clashes and the high tension of spirit and feeling are but the logical results of your rapid advancement.
The speaker said in part: "I cannot forget the ideality and the loyalty with which the colored people of the South served his master during the Civil War. They took their lives their hands and carried food by night and saved the lives of many white persons of the South during those awful times. The white man of the south owe you a debt of gratitude that they will never be able to pay.
When I think of the past, that in 1865 I were only a few of your race who could read and that was in defiance of the law, and then look into the faces of this intelligent antiselfie. I tell you, its wonderful, its relentless.
Don't be too quick to take the advice of anyone who tells you that it is impossible for the colored and white to get along here in America peacefully together. Let us study out the problem for ourselves. History does not record of any subject race having demonstrated the powers to survive in the face of their form, and to get along with separate as has the American Negro. So it is possible for anyone to tell us what to do.
To attempt to discuss social equality, would be out of place at this time. It is not an issue at all, the thing you need is to be let alone. In all of my experience in St. Louis, I have yet to have e seen a colored man act without common sense in a matter of this kind.
Basis of Cooperation
"It is not necessary, to theorize on the basis of cooperation. There must be cooperation between the races, and service is the basis of cooperation. There are those who think that the people should render a certain kind of service. But I am thinking of the service of Henry O. Tanner, a member of your race. He has rended a great service as a Painter. And thousands of others that I might mention."
Race Clashes May Be Expected
"There will be clashes as a people go forward. History shows that real progress has always met opposition. Every movement toward a larger freedom should be encouraged. Good will come out of the high tension in your race.
"If there ever comes a time when this condition gets beyond control, a coming together of the leaders of both races will offset it. I know you are deeply concerned about the future of undertakings, God keeps us fearful.
When I think of the keeping hope in your people in the face of the most adverse circumstances, I can't but think of that quotation from General Armstrong—Doing the impossible is the glory of life."
And then again I think of—the words of a member of your race which was uttered at a time that tried men's hearts. Sojourn Truth said to Frederick Douglas—"Is God Dead?" The talk by Mr. Brown was enthusiastically received by a large and appreciative audience.
EDUCATORS IN SESSION HERE
About three-hundred teachers from different parts of the State are in attendance at the State Teachers Association, which convened in St. Louis for a three-day session. Thursday.

FOOD. FOR THOUGHT
Friends, we know that we cannot receive more than he has power to demand, however, strike the iron while it is hot. If you have no hammer strike with zeal. A child which is not able or express itself clearly, possesses a touching power which demands recognition. If it fails, to get recognition at home should it be possible it crawls to the nearest point of traffic, to be with the Negro, who is a main factor in politics, has the power to demand 'from the Republican party' which he appeals to as a child appeals to its parents' that which is just, and be sustained. 'Proof', I. Baker.

IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of our darling mother and mother-in-law, Dinah Atio who departed this life Nov. 2, 1919, two years ago.
Do not ask us if we miss her
Oh there is such a vacant place
Often we think we hear her coming
Or see her smiling face.
She has gone among the angels
Safe from every grief and care
We shall meet again in Heaven
And never more be part there.
Radly missed by children.
Mrs. Ida Garner.
William Moore.
Charley Moore.
Sylvester Garner, see-in-law.
IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of our beloved hus
band and son Ahart S. Palmer, who
departed this life, Oct. 28, 1918.
Today recalls and memories.
Of our loved one gone to rest.
The blow meant more than words can
tell.
Our home is broken-up.
We think of him in silence
No weep.
But in our aching hearts.
His memory we shall forever-keen.
But oh, for a sound of his voice that is still.
Sadly missed by wife, Mrs. Nell Sylvia Palmer. New York City, and mother, Mrs. Ella M. Palmer.
IN MEMORIAM
In loving remembrance of my dear daughter, Lala Johnson Penrose who departed this life five years ago, November 8, 1916 and in loving remembrance of my loving son, Lee H. Johnson, who departed this life, November 3, 1919.
Thou art gone to the grave. We, no longer deplace thee; Though sorrows and darkness whispers the tempest. The Saviour has passed through its portals before thee; And the lamp of his love is. They guide through the glom.
Thou art go to the grave, But twas wrong to deplace thee. When God was thy monsoon. Thy guardian, thy guide. He gave thee and took thee, And so on will restore the When death hath no sling. Since the Saviour hath died.
A. S. S.

"HARDING HAS HANDED THE NEGRO A SCORPION"
So Says Reverend W. B. Reed In Letter To John Mitchell, Jr.
Hon. John Mitchell, Jr.
Editor Richmond Planet,
Richmond, Va.
Dear Mr. Mitchell—I wish to congratulate you upon your nomination for Governor of your State by the Republican party thesof. A worthy, and merited honor wisely bestowed by self respecting people, and that colored man who does not support your ticket, ought to be made a "Trusty" of The Brave Stand taken by the real mind of Virginia and of Georgia will do more toward the uniting of our forces North and South, than all the bowing and scraping of Mr. Harding to Lily Whites from now until time for Garfield's part on the program.
I went to Mr. Harding's porch and with bowed heads, we asked God to send him to the White House; though the Lord has answered our prayers, Mr. Harding has handed us a sword. Let him do his work! Next fall is coming and I will soon roll around. have a little better look at the Roman basement from now on I am a "Lily Black Republican" and a red nose Democrat who is my open end, really looks a little better than this Lily. White animal who is a hair from the beginning. Your for manhood rights without qualification.

The vehicle upon which Mr. Gilpin has taken to fame is not built on the most desirable theme, but it has served its purpose. It got him to the destination. He has shown the people that Negro can not as he says "threaten" that African Americans will suffer in buffering which marks the need Negro administrator on the stage." Having accomplished the Mr. Gilpin can now demand the consideration of the public in presenting a more worthful character of the more than Brett Jones

Through eight scores of remarkable acting tom intercepts the fears, the plagues to help of the sick man until the end comes. Below this wonderful acting service this series will be broadcast on this series and has won the praise of the critics in the country. The company will close its St. Louis engagement Saturday night.

RALLY! RALLY!! DANGER AHEAD
A new lease will be handled the lynchers of this country
should the Dyer anti-lynching bill fail during the present Con-
We are not alarmists, but The Argus feels it our duty to warn its readers of the dangers of a failure of the bill in its present form.
Already a minority report has been made by the committee who had the measure in charge. And while those who are friendly to the bill are optimistic as to the outcome, when it is taken up on the floor of the House yet they admit that a hard fight is be fore them, and that the bill is subject to many amendments.
The present bill, as drawn by Mr. Dyer, of this city, is no doubt, the best ever presented on this subject. The right of Congress to make such a law has been upheld by Colonel Gulf, a representative of the Attorney General's office. But, as might be expected, there will be strong opposition on the ground of "interference with the State Rights."
Now is the time to do something to help put the bill through—What have you done?
Isn't it time for lynching to cease in these United States? We or the colored race, by who more chance have been fortunate enough to escape the lyncher's rope or the mob's torch, should get busy as a matter of self protection.
It is to be regretted that no organized effort is being made in this city or State to help in this case.
The local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Get busy! Send messages to each Senator and Representative of the State, requesting his support of the Dyer Bill. It may seem little; but small things some times have armies.
Remember the story of the horse shoe nail. A two-cent stamp will carry a powerful message.
PRESIDENT HARDING AND SOCIAL EQUALITY
Much has been said about the speech delivered by President Harding at Birmingham, Alabama, a few days ago by both pulpit and the press throughout the country, because he dared to discuss the Race question. Praise has been one expression, while condemnation has been the other.
A close study of the President's speech as to its effect upon the Negroes of the country. The Argus sees danger, grave danger in the President's stand on what he calls "Social Equality." In the first place, we believe it ill-advised that he as President of the U. S. should have attempted to discuss a subject which he himself admits does not exist. It, a bugaboo—a time-worn saying, with many aliases, that has been used in the South to cheat, rob, murder, lynch, burn, disfranchise, Jim-Crow, segregate and ostracize the Negro for the past half century.
The question of political, economical and educational equality is impossible as long as the white people of the South, yes, of the North, or elsewhere, are being warned of the question of "Social Equality." Its an appeal to race prejudice and it finds, its way into every economic and civil phase of America's life.
No greater handicap could be inflicted upon the colored people of this country today, than to have the President of the United States set his hand of approval upon evils which eminate from this social bugaboo.
Statement of Our Case—There is a mistaken idea on the part of most, if not all white people of this country, concerning the Negro's ambition, hope and aspiration. The so-called social equality in the heart of our expectations. But, we are ambitions to have every opportunity to develop our brain in the arts, and sciences of the world, just as any other citizens of the United States. We have hopes that our boys and girls shall so prepare themselves that they may be able to take their places in the drama of life; along side all men and women, where ability counts, regardless of race or color. Our aspirations are as lofty as the skies, and the ranges of the ladder by which we expect to reach them are limited only by the measure of our souls.
We must to be men, free men, enjoying every right that others enjoy, limited only by our ability. We want to breathe the sunlight of God's love in the "land of the free and the home of the brave," and be anything we are big enough to be.
WHAT OTHER EDITORS SAY
The Washington Tribune thinks the President's views on amalgamation are not consistent with facts as given out by the census. The Tribune has this to say:
PRESIDENT HARDING'S SPEECH
This was a (rank speech), delivered in the heart of the South. There are two distinct views of this speech.
One is that if the whole it was fair, clear-cut one for white man to make in the South. Another view is that it reads the colored man out of the Republican party and flaunts the red flag of "social equality."
While the President was on the race question he might have spoken on the South's great pastime—lynching. However, he stationally avoided it.
One sentence stands out glaringly, however, and that is this: "Racial amalgamation, there cannot be." This statement of the President's is not in harmony with the census records, which states: "In the period of 40 years—1850 to 1910—the increase of the dark element in the Negro population amounted to 4,544,620, or 140.5 per cent, and the increase of the mulatto element to 1,644,353, or 405.4 per cent. The dark population in 1910 was then 2.1-2 times as great as in 1890, while the mulatto population in 1910 was more than 5 times as great as in 1880.
"In the 20 years from 1890 to 1910, the dark element in the South increased 20.1 per cent and the mulatto element 94.9 per cent and in the preceding twenty-year periods the relative increase of the mulatto greatly exceeded that of the dark people."
THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, NOV., 4, 1921
THE PRESIDENT HAS SPOKEN
The first utterance by the President on the status of the Negro in America comes at a time when silence is no longer endured and upon a subject wholly uncalled for. "Twas better that he remained in Washington and kept silent than to advocate any form of un-Americanism. The Colored man has suffered enough from the so-called friends of the Republican party. (7) On the front page is his speech before a Birmingham audience. Why does the President of the United States advocate "Social Equality" as a curse to the Black man, when 8 million of the white man's amalgamated sons and daughters make up one-eighth the population of this country? If the Colored woman was good enough to give birth to their children she ought to be good enough to marry them.
The white man is charged before high heaven and stand indebted before humanity for having taken advantage of the Negro woman as vassals and chattel in the black days of yester-years, and in their helplessness, weakness and ignorance, self-respecting Negroes desire to forget it. He knows by the eternal laws of truth that flashed, vaunted and superior race which time has evaded the sanctity of their lives into prostitution, as attested by the red stair of bastardy upon the brows of thousands of the Race, as they struggle onward and upward for a greater and higher life, under the aegis of truth, but ever hindered and molested by the great race which is so preponderant in numbers, wealth and power that the white man had both social and sexual equality.
Why did the Supreme Court uphold Jim-Crow laws of the South? Was that social equality? Why do Departments at Washington discriminate and segregate its Colored employees? Is that social equality? Why dudge the issue? Why does the Lily White Republicans bar Colored men and women from voting? Is that social equality? Why doesn't President Harding employ Colored men to positions they have held since 1865? Is that social equality?
It seems to us that the President could reap a far greater reward in strengthening its weaker links than in opening his doors and giving preferment to the enemy aliens and Southern demagogues who forsook and betrayed this government in the supreme test of civilization. If that line of blood over yonder ever wavered before the hellish onslaught of the Hun, it was not because you placed the gun in the black man's hands, but because you failed to develop in the individual behind that gun the superior mental, physical, moral, social and political capabilities of a man.
Thousands of our sons-lay asleep upon the jorn bosoms of France fighting for this equality of Justice that you portray as a barrier to the social life of our Race.
We will stand ready to defend our Race in the sunshine of whose society we are ever happy. We want equality that is given every other citizen under the Constitution. We will accept nothing less.
The President has spoken. Let the historians write: "Failed."
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch admits that the "Social Equality" question is a mere bugaboo and adds that right conduct in government and society are the foundation of society. After an editorial in The Post-Dispatch on the President's speech there appeared in that paper a letter from "H" who criticized The Post-Dispatch and the President.
In answering "H's" letter, The Post-Dispatch has to
THE BUGABQOS OF RACE
"H." whose better in the Post-Dispatch arraigns President Harding and the Post-Dispatch for recognizing the rights of the Negro to political and economic equality—equality under the laws—sees so many bugaboos of the domination of the white by the colored races that his moral vision is obscured. He sees race instinct and pride completely overwhelming inherent rights, constitutional rights and ethical principles—in short, all fundamentals of right conduct in government and society which are the foundations of civilization and the observance of which enables peoples of different races and colors to live together on the earth; to develop their distinctive qualities and capacities; and to establish equitable living conditions which make for peace and the welfare of both.
"H" admits the correctness of the fundamental principles supported by the Post-Dispatch and Mr. Harding. He admits the advocacy of equal rights for the Negroes is based on fundamentals as embodied in the Federal Constitution, but he insists that there are fundamentals that precede it; these are the elements of racial instincts and pride, against which he thinks no fundamental rights or principles of equity can prevail.
It is a dark picture of wrong and might triumphant which belles all the progress in culture and civilization the world has made. We admit the existence and the strength of race instincts and pride—as we admit the fact that greed and imperial ambition exist—which have manifested themselves since the beginning of man in race hatreds and prejudices. They have brought wars and woes innumerable upon mankind.
What is the remedy for these things which are recognized to be evils? We admit their existence and their menace, but shall we bow down to them as the gods of the world? Shall we succumb wholly to their influence? Or shall we combat, them with sound principles of human relationships which make for progress? Mankind has made great progress against these menacing evils and there is evidence, despite the creakers of evil and the believers in the irredeemable deprivacy, pride, ruthless selflessness and ambition of races and nations into amicable co-operation for the abolition of war, the elimination of frictions and hostilities and the establishment of right in their relations.
It may be that the blacks and the brownies and the yellows will join together to dominate or destroy the whites. We see no evidence of it as yet. There is no affinity between the pacific Chinese and their aggressive cousins, the Japanese. The Chinese are nearer in friendship and accord to America than to Japan. They seek only their rights and they look to us to help in obtaining them. The East Indians, to whom war and slaughter of any kind is obnoxious, are concerned only in establishing their rights against white conquest. They will no fight for them, but resort solely to moral and passive resistance. The truth is the great masses of the blacks, yellows and brownies which make up the vast majority of the human race seek only protection against white aggression and exploitation. The whites are the sinners in attempted domination, as we see the sinners in Negro slavery. It is for all to stress for our side and cause slainting before we shiver and rush to arms in fight domination by colored races.
There is no better way to foster hostility, and promote ultimate conflict, than the way of "Hit." and like quoted authorities, Lathrop Stanford and Madison Grace. If we忍辱负罪 the arms of white antagonists and quibbling subtly penetrate our soil and jumble us, and extend the hearing of those with antagonistic motives, we will be able to win.
South, but we do not advocate black over white government, the government of the least civilized and intelligent, when we advocate the effort to remedy the evil situation by the application of sound principles of human relationships. We do not believe that the unfortunate conditions existing in the South can be bettered by insisting that wrong must prevail, right be suppressed and the fundamentals of the Federal Constitution be ignored. That is a course of reasoning which leads to conflict and destruction.
We admitted freely the difficulties in the way of solving the race problem. It is a delicate and complicated problem, but we do not think it insoluble except through injustice and conflict. We hold that it can be worked out satisfactorily but that the only way to work it out is through sound principles—through the overcoming of evil with good and through the recognizing of rights and vital interests and the establishing of righteous and amicable relations. If that cannot be done, if wrong must continue and ultimately triumph by oppression and war, our civilization is a failure. The republic is doomed and mankind is on the road to ruin.
OTHER PRESS COMMENTS
The President's Birmingham speech if it does nothing else, has given us an opportunity to review the attitude of the colored Amgen Press, both to ward the issues involved generally toward a better award, generally on questions of race relationship.
The Washington (D. C.) Tribune, expresses the opinion that Mr. Harding advocates the impossible. This publication says in part, "He has hardened Harding can harmonize two seemingly opposite theories is not indicated in his address, for it is obvious that any group so part, if it possess ordinary intelligence, organizes both for grown development and protection."
The following express optimism and about the limit of colored appreciative sentiment of the speech, Los Angeles Times.
"The fact that the President stated that social equality was not to be thought of disturbs no one and especially does it not disturb the Negro people that the part the great uncle of this piece, there is absolutely no desire to meet with any race except our own upon social terms. What we wanted the President has expressed a willingness that we shall have and will be assured to us we shall be satisfied."
Gatertown City Times: "The address gives a bright hope for a better day in recognition of the races and a deserving citizenship of the nation."
The Negro Press generally, has always recognized the essential mythical nature of the southern claim to a land of so called social equality, followed from ecumenism by explored journalists whose knowledge of one of the paramount phases of the question is shared with most Negroes.
Richmond Planet:
"The reason to believe that more amalgamation between the races is going on in the souland bein closed doors than in the north, with its matrimonial publicity."

to the comparatively limited field furnished by the Negro weekly and these are the types of men who weighing, analyzing and interpreting utterances, possess the colored people and therefore the above can be taken fairly as the opinion of the real leaders of the 12,000,000 American citizens who were involved in the greatest crimes of civilization has forced into aggressive thinking.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC
NOTICE TO YOU
Since the birth of Mrs. Mattie Crittenden, I will no longer be responsible for any/indebtness she may anyone trust their goods or other property do so at their own risk.
Mattie had a good home; she only done her own work at home until December she took a washing to help me out on account of being layed off from work, otherwise she only done her housework. No one need have any pay whatever. A certain bushybody inquired of the insurance agent whether Mattie's insurance payments are being paid. I think that individual will do well to keep their own indebtness up and that would have more if they didn't talk so much. It is doubtful whether they have ever said a valuable word in from 1880. Therefore the fellow (that don't know anything does not get where) I will not stop here. The Globe, Post and the Cousty papers will receive a copy of some.
E. D. Crittenden.

of this chapter they have been able to
dents in practically all of the leading
collegiate institutions of the country,
both white and Colored.
The Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity in the University of Southern California, which has the same standing as the fraternities of other races, marks the first Negro collegiate fraternity to be established west of Kansas, and its significance cannot be overstated. It is also the name of Mr. Claude Roses, ex-president of the Associated Students of the University of Southern California: The establishment of a National Fraternity of the character of the Alpha Phi Alpha among the Colored students marks the greatest accomplishment of the Negro students in the history of the fraternity, many promising students and athletes, will be attracted to the University.
The membership of the Alpha Delta Chapter at the University of Southern California consists of Bert McDonald, College of Law, president; William Yellow, senior college of Dentistry, College of Dentistry, secretary; Howard L. Star, star, treasurer; James McGregor, debater and oator; and Messrs Clifford Gordon, football star; Samuel Dunley; Arthur Prince, John Middle, Hugh Bell H. S.

UNKNOWN SOLDIER MAY BE COLORED AMERICAN
As Athena is the face of Bali, paid tribute to the "Unknown God," so today the world page celebrates to the "Unknown Soldier." For an immortal testimony in appreciation of life's great shortest sacrifice the world panses to honor the American dead. Selected by impressive systematic elimination, and with great precaution, lest the identity be revived, the body of this soldier now receiving such marked attention, is merely symbolic of the great spirit of America.
The President of the United States and all the high officials of our government, and the high officials of other governments now represented in the United Nations, and solemn tribute to the Unknown Soldier the respect of foreign participation, the event is timed most auspiciously. The World Conference on Limitation of Armsment, opens the same day. Stalwart statesmen and diplobates of the world's greatest center of civilization, are present to pay homage.
Never in the history of our nation has there been such an event. It may never happen again. The horrors of war, coating 20,000,000 lives in the recent conflict, have shocked the soul of mankind, that even now, the greatest thinkers and humanitarians of the day say, with President Harding: "This must never be again." Great Britain has a soul. When it is in a position, in peace or war, the world is divided among the america know how to choose the "better option." The history of the nation is rich in decisions of righteousness. There is inspiration in the valor of American patriots and statesmen.
It is to be hoped that Armistice Day, November 11, 1921, will mark a new birth of national consciousness. If the people of the nation are not quickened to their senses of human justice, and softened in their prolonged seige of human hatred, then the marked tribute to the 'Unknown Soldier' becomes a sham and mockery, if on the other hand, there is a soul that is conscious to do right because it is right because it is expected; if it is born the consciousness of the national life it thought that the World Conference on Limitation of Aramament, must also be a World Conference on Limitation of Prejudice, then will we get somewhere.
The "Unknown Soldier"—more know his identity. He may be a product of conservative New England, or the Juno South, or the "hall fellow" of the sunny West, or the off-spring of the sunny West, who knows, who knows? The "Unknown Soldier" may be more, he may be "Colored," but withal, and best, he is American. So, the heart beats of 15,000,000-Colored Americans will be quickened by the heart to be Sae departed; the 400,000-breed the Race will wonder whether or not he may be one of their "buddies."
Thoughts of the ingratitude of some Americans will flash through our minds on this occasion, but we will thank God, after all, that we too are Ameri-
PRESIDENT'S SPEECH DISPLEASES SEVERAL SOUTHERN SENATORS
Brief Interview by Staff Correspondent
President Harding's plea, to the South for political equality of the Negro has aroused Southern Democrats of the Sengue, who denounce it. Criticism of the President's address has been made by Senators Watson of Georgia Harrison of Mississippi, Hefner of Tennessee, who proclaimed it "like careless" "unfortunate" and a "blow to white civilization."
"If published reports of the President's speech at Birmingham, are correct," said Senator Watson, "I very much regret that he made it. It is an unfortunate thing when the President of the United States accepts an invitation to speak in such Southern States; as Georgia and Alabama then finds it necessary to lecture their people about the treatment of the Negro.
"We are lot going to permit social or political equality of the kind the President advocates because, we know it would mean the destruction of the civilization which our ancestors handed down to us." Senator Harrison of Mississippi characterized the President's proposal as unfortunate and added: "every right to which he entitled to every encouragement the Negro who, in some states as in my own, exceeds the white population, to strive to be placed upon an authority with the whites, is a blow to the white civilization of this country that will take years to combat."
"It is unfortunate," said Senator McKellar of Tennessee, "that the President should have seen fit to discuss the race question on his first trip with after his election to the presidency, and then discuss the question of this time. President Harding cannot make the Negro equal to the white man either economically or politically. The speeches in my judgment, was ill conceived, ill timed, ill-placed and can serve no useful purpose."
AMER. LABOR ALLIANCE
TAKES STAND FOR EQUAL
AND EXACT JUSTICE
The American Labor Alliance is the name of the latest political organization, seeking to give "social justice" in all citizens of all classes and disfctions of humanity. It has begun a campaign to make sure the welfare and rights will be the same for the group will be known only on the program database. The Philadelphia Public League, meeting together of the late mayor of Philadelphia, has said the organization is
THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, NOV., 4, 1921
political party, which will be formed by radical labor elements and communists to create an "open, abbreached boardroom movement for the purpose of educating the proletariat and permeating it with commutic ideals." The founders of the organization seem to see their first battlefield among "the strongholds of conservative unionism;" in other words, among the labor organizations, allied with the American industrial labor. Samuel Gompess, president of of the party organization, repudiates the new party and says its advocates have been heard of. A. F. of L. conventions and "talked until they disgusted the majority of the delegates and never have got anywhere."
Here is a list of the organizations in New York City which are uniting for its general purposes of the Alliance: Workers' Council, Jewish Socialist Federation, Independent Young People's Socialist League, Hungarian Federation. African Blood Brotherhood, Greek Socialist Union, Finnish Labor League, Irish American Labor League, and the Left Poole Zion. There is a diversity 'foreign mayor' about it all. This is very natural America, the refuge of oppressed from all nations, having into her being the good that has been brought here from foreign shores, must also be confronted with the problem of whether she will 'absorb' those things which seem not so good.
"The chances are that America as a whole, like "the strengthens of conservative unionism," does not believe there is any particular virtue in endeavor to up here a "soviet republic." The new American Labor Alliance believes there is another American Labor Alliance going to try to persuade America of its thinking. It probably will be a very difficult task. One sees little prospect of its being accomplished this year, or next, or the year after that. However, that is all very remote. The American Labor Alliance admits itself its first task will be to reason with its strongholds of conservative unionism, its back and slawk and see how it makes out with the job. That is done by the American Labor Alliance can come around to talk business with the rest of us. We suggest English as the language to be employed."
By General Mangin, The Great French Commander, in the New York Times
The Associated Negro Press
"In the United States of America, the Negro question is a question. Solution of it is a delicate matter that can be accomplished only in the course of time. The Negro is perfectible. He is capable of furnishing activity for every category of humain activity, and will require teaching, and his education has at present barely begun.
"Let us state frankly that the white race has been very guilty in its treatment of the black. The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children seem are set on edge." Degrading slavery was followed by sudden emancipation, which left several millions of men without their own organization, without superiors of their race and with a purely formal status, almost simulated them absolutely with the whites, from the legal point of view, whereas they continued, as a matter of fact, to be treated as inferior beings. The grant of electoral rights to Negroes of the Southern States, when formed the majority of the population, was equivalent to making the enamelled the masters of their masters, and that impossibility created an invisible strain, which still exists. Instruction, and above all, education, widely diffused and given According to suitable methods, will ultimately furnish a way out of this situation and no objection should be placed in the way of the adoption, such a policy in consequence of the movement of the black population toward the Northern States, going to the temporary shortage of labor there.
The Negro population of the United States has doubled within the last forty years. In *san Domingo* it has quintupled in less than a century. The problem, therefore, local though it be, the operation of the whites in the treatment of the blacks is necessary, however, the would be deplorable that race prejudice should delay the carrying out of this work of capital importance.
SOUTHERN PROGRESS
IN NEGRO EDUCATION
Of Oklahoma's $50,750 colored children eighty-seven per cent were enrolled in 1920-21. Eleven hundred and sixty-one colored teachers were employed, and something over $854,000 were spent in building school houses. An colored children in the same year. West Virginia has approved for Negro educational seminary institutions $1,200,900. Texas spread next year $400,000 for Negro institution, and North Carolina $700,000, which $36,000 will go for the supervision of Negro schools.
The Rosewall Fund spent $282,000 for Negro school houses last year. This resulted in securing buildings that cost $2,000,000. Of this amount the colored people paid out of private funds. The school provided private citizens among local white teachers and paid $250,000. The Rosewall Fund spent apart $222,000 for its work, next year. Nothing is more indicative of progress in Negro education than the development in recent years of public summer schools for colored teachers, finance. Louisiana has sent practically all corps of Negro teachers to summer schools by the State. Last year $290,000 attended summer schools in North Carolina. Of these, $150 impressed the grades of their certification and benefited thereby financially. This year North Carolina must provide for 100 black teachers in state summer schools.
GRAPEFRUIT. IS SQUIRTLESS
Tangleleaf is Cross Between Orange Tangerine and Grapefruit—Delicious When Ripe.
Squirtless grapefruit is a novelty under the attention of the Department of Agriculture. It is called the tangoelo, a cross between the orange tangerine and the grapefruit. Walker T. Swingle, physiologist in charge, and T. Halph Robinson, crop physiologist of the department, state in a bulletin that these resemble round oranges more than either of their parents.
There are two varieties, the Spmpson and the Thornton. The former has disappointed those who tasted it because they, mstook its ripe appearance and ale it before it was mature. It is delicious when fully ripe, "with a rather acid, sprightly flavored, aromatic, soft and juicy deep orange colored pulp."
The Thornton has "very pale orange colored juice and sprightly flavored pulp. It has little acidity and resembles a tender, good-flavored orange more than a grapefruit of tangerine. It may be eaten out of hand, like a tangerine, but is doubtless better when halved and eaten like grapefruit. It requires no sugar, and the main is to tender it can be removed with a spoon without cutting the segments; moreover, there is little or no tendency for the juice to squirt when the spoon is inserted in the segment."
EAGLE SWIFTEST OF BIRDS
"King of Sky" Had No Trouble in Keeping Pace With Airplane in Novel Contest.
The eagle, according to neronants, remains not merely the king of birds, but in flying quality the swiftest of all birds. A French "fiery" from the French naval station at Salonica in February, 1918, had a match with an eagle near Mount Olympus. The eagle competed of his free will, says the New York Herald.
"I was followed by the eagle" writes Commander Larrow, "at a distance of about 100 feet. Our machine was making her full measure 60 diastical miles an hour. In comparison with us the bird seemed so perfectly at a standstill that I was able to photograph it with an exposure of a half second, as the sky was cloudy, and the plate gave an absolutely neat reproduction.
"For two minutes the bird practically did not move its wings, and seemed to glide, except every ten or twelve seconds, when it made a very slight and careless sort of rowing motion as if to keep fit.
"When the bird abandoned all thought of attacking its strange rival it went full speed ahead, and, covering much more than sixty miles an hour, soon disappeared."
Remarkable Volcanic Islands. Volcanoes often break loose on the floor of the ocean, and sometimes they build up considerable mountains. If such a mountain be tall enough, it appears above the surface and forms an island. The Hawaiian islands were themselves created in that way.
Sometimes these volcanic islands rise up, only to disappear later. Here and there in the Pacific that very thing has happened within historic times.
Martiners often have come across a new island, or they have discovered to their surprise the absence of a charted bit of terra firma. In the neighborhood of the Aleutian chain two mountains lifted themselves out of the ocean a while ago, with much fire, steam and smoke. They are called Bogalof and Grewink. Having slowly grown to great size, they now are disappearing gradually.—Kansas City Star.
From Chlorine to Aspirin.
Chlorine and a lot of potassium gases are produced from coaltar products.
From chlorine is developed chlorbenzol, and from chlorbenzol, acetic anhydride of asiprin. Aspirin is also a coal-mr product made from salicylic acid. Chlorine was first made in Germany, but, the war compelled us to make our own, and a plant was established at Niagara Falls.
This little illustration of how aspirin is made shows what American chemists can do if given opportunity to work out these chemical problems. Aspirin, heretofore manufactured exclusively by Germania, is now made in America.
A new lawn game of unusual interest has been devised, suggesting some of the features of golf, table pool and croquet, but imitating none of them. Four round-end, rubber-tipped mallets and four balls of distinctive colors, are numbered aluminum pockets to be seen on the lawn at specified places, and two wild states constitute the outfit for two or four players. The pockets are arranged in a rectangular, which may be of considerable size, and each player is allowed three mallet strokes to pocket his ball, making many interesting situations.—Popular Mechanics.

Unemployment
It was shown by William O'Connell of Cleveland. John C. Dancy of Detroit. Wm. L. Evans of Chicago, and Willemhg. G. Walling of the Chicago go Employment Conference that the Negro had been hit hardest during the prosec critical situation and that he is suffering from interference polygamy. He has to take one seventh of the labor supply of the counter. Forty per cent of the wage earning Negroes of Cleveland are now unemployed, however, the city is expanding large sums of money to relieve the distress and make jobs. Detroit has taken over through its Welfare department the relief of those now jobless. Chicago appears to be farest behind due to menacing city administration. The Chicago Urban League made the first organised city employment program played. During the distress of that winter it served) more than 60,000 meals and gave 40,000 shelter tickets.

The American Federation of Labor, the Railroad Men's Industrial Association and employers were all represented at some session of the conference. Mac Kearney of Livingston the St. Louis Urban League in attendance. The latter spoke on "Getting Hold of the Newcomer."

Dr. Wm. J. Turner, the very able and progressive pastor, again crowned himself with glory in his wonderful sermon last Sunday. He is a great reasoner and deep thinker and a man of great integrity. The attendance is steadily on the increase. At the close of the second week's work the membership had been increased with the addition of twenty-three true and loyal workers. Life and bide fair for a large and wide awake school.
The Epworth League is doing a great work. The interest and attendance continues to grow each week. The League was graced last Sunday evening with the presence of Bishop C. H. W. Brown, a well-known member of the village 'Tenn. The league gave the bishop a great oration upon his arrival, Mr. C. J. Bell opened the subject of discussion, Miss Eunice Blanchard made a very timely and pointed talk on the subject. More than two dozen persons pledged, their support to the League. Bishop Phillips was in charge by the president, giving in brief the ability and worth of the bishop in a most pleasing manner. The bishop arose and began by saying "You should be encouraged and complimented on having such an able pastor, because he put the church on the map." He had heard of a church, somewhere in that section but did not know it was a church of magnificent importance. In the pastor he in turn spoke very complimentary of the president, having known him in his youth. The bishop is much loved by all and is deeply interested in the spread of his church everywhere. The subject for Sunday: 'Thy will be done with our money.' will be discussed by Miss Marianne Courtney. The annual meeting of the Newark Board was held Tuesday evening. The following officers were elected: W. H. Brown president; James Parker, vice president; Chas. Mills, secretary; J. B. White, treasurer. The Sunrise Prayer meeting will be on Sunday morning.

LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 6
PAUL'S EXPERIENCES AT JERU-
SALEM.
LESSON TEXT: Acts 16:1-16.
GOLDEN TEXT—God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will we not fear him.—Pa 4:1, 2, (a).
REFERENCE MATERIAL - II Tim.
12:16:18. 4:14:18.
PRIMARY TOPIC—How Paul's Nephew
Saved His Life.
J. Paul's Arrest (21:18:40):
The immediate occasion of this was his effort to remove the prejudice which certain ones held against him. His reception by representatives of the church was most cordial. In order that all the brethren in Jerusalem might graciously receive him, it was proposed to him by the elders that he take a Jewish vow to prove that he was in no way opposed to the law. They recognized that such an act would in no way compromise or involve the Gentile brethren. As to how far this act conciliated the Jews we are not told, but it only enraged the unbelieving Jews, causing them to resort to mob law. These maddened Jews, on the basis of a supposition, seized him and dragged him from the temple and beat him mercilessly, intending to put him to death. Paul was rescued from the mob by the Roman guard, stationed nearby. Paul kept himself under control and politely asked permission of the captain to speak to the people. When he addressed him in Greek and quoted his Roman citizenship, the captain granted his request.
11. Paul's Defense (22:1-27).
1. His claim for a rightful hearing (vv. 1-3). (1) His birth (vv. 3). He was a Jew born in Tarsus a city of no mean reputation. (2) His education (vv. 3). He was educated in school under the tutorship of Gamaliel, and instructed "according to the perfect manner of the fathers" (vv. 5). His zeal (vv. 3). He was as zealous toward God as those Jews who were trying to destroy him.
2. His attitude toward Jesus (vv. 4, 5). "I persecuted this way unto the death"—it was one of hatred, as was that of the Jews.
3. How his attitude was changed (vv. 5-16). It was brought about by the intervention of God.
4. The Lord commissioned him to go to the Gentiles (vv. 17-21). It was not of his own will that he preached to the Gentiles; but by the Lord's direct commission.
II. Paul Before the Sanhedrin (22: 1-10).
The Roman officer, in order to learn why Paul was arrested, commanded the chief council to assemble, and brought Paul before them.
1. Paul's earnest look at the council (rv. 1. 2). This was a solicitation of their honor to give him a fair hearing, and also a look of conscious integrity and unfaltering courage. He protests that his behavior as a persecutor of the church and preacher of the Gospel has been in keeping with the highest principle of national integrity. At this the high priest ordered him to be smitten on the mouth.
2. Paul's stern rebukes of the head of the council (v. 2). "God shall smite thee, tibu whitted sepucher"—fair without and foul within. This was a just sentence, no doubt directed by the Lord. Paul's words show that he had the highest respect for the office, but the man now occupying it was not worthy of it.
3. Paul's appeal to the Pharisees (vv. 6-10). Seeing that he could not get a fair hearing, and perceiving that the body before him was made up of Pharisees and Sadducees, he appealed to the Pharisees, hoping to get their attention, for his preaching had something in common with their beliefs. This resulted in a squabble.
IV. The Lord Seed by Paul (v. 11). Paul was in great need of grace to sustain him. He may have begun to question the wisdom of his course in going to Jerusalem, but this assured him that his course was right, and thus comfort was brought to him.
V. The Conspiracy to Kill Paul (vv. 12-22).
More than forty men banded together for the purpose of getting Faint out of the war. They placed themselves under a curse to abstain from eating and drinking until they had murdered blim. God defeated their plans without a miracle. This was done by Faint's nephew. Their fatal miracle was that they left God out of the question.

SUMNER HIGH BUILDING STRONG FOOTBALL SQUAD FOR TURKEY DAY GAME
In their first two practice games of the season the Summer Football Squad shows excellent promise of rounding into a fast, fighting, heavy machine. The High Boys took a victory in the first try against the Fred Douglas Squad, Columbia, Mo., with a score of 19-3. The St. Louis "Y" team, however proved too much for the High boys by beating them by a score of 7-3. The heaviest, experienced "Y" team however and their mettle fully tested when attempting straight line offensive against Summer's perfect defenses and accomplished there win three well trained and well played aerial attacks.
Coach Mosley is stressing speed, peep and light. Roberts at left eft position is showing good goals from training and left tackle the one weak position is replaying plenty of attention from the coach who is trying out several men for this position. Scott with an advantage in weight over Hamilton for the position will have to be a bit stronger in the position against the latter's speed and peep. Jefferson a first man for full back may be shifted to left tackle as he doesn't class up to the rest of the back field. Ward and Montgomery, two 155 pounders, lightning, smashing, who spirited guards are going to play slap star football all Warl through a new play, shows good headwork and football skills. Rankie, due to the pugged position shows good speed and Blerker at right tackle is really good for a big gain when calf back to carry the ball Ruffo, a last year guard, is filling right end andinking good.
Both Spencer and P. Thomas are good at quarterback and out of several possibilities for high back. Dickinson show about the best with Larkin in a close weight speed and pen position. "Viewed individually of as a whole, Summer has a mighty good aggregation for this season. Cough Mosby is nursing the keys a bit and he musts have built up a defensive organization. He is a great leader and is not hesitating for any signal they may need this year Saturday's game at St. Louis University Campus against the New York Smith Squad is got 50. show the real stuff. Spencer' High/is made of Mr. Mosby's spirit of sharp sport and the deeper motivation to make this a burger year for high school football.

The largest crowd that has this year witnessed a football game in the Lafayette Flood in Charleston, the Howard University of Washington, D.C. means of Fail Back Payments, cared for by caused the downfall of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute Econ in a score of 2 to 0. The game was one of the hardest (sought and battled that the Howard Econ has entered for the college. He has lost the institution to Charlotte. He has lost the institution in home. Howard's win from the West Virginia marks the fourth game played during the season from each of which he has charged the violations and misused upon. The only incident that marked the otherwise good game was the breaking of the tight leg of the Williams, the left side for Howard. Williams and run down the tight leg to avoid after putting a pass against the air when he was hit by the double kick under and injured and gave the angle the bone imprinting the skin.
At the opening of the game, institute kicked off to flowward and then receiving the ball returned it on yards. On the first play a penalty of 45 yards was inflicted on the ball and was immediately by frequent penalties all the way through. The prettiest run of the day came when Brewery, left halfback of Institute intercepted a pass and ran 45 yards to the goal line. Institute failed to put the ball over the goal line when Brewery intercepted it. He led the giant end of the Institute team was the individual star for Institute the painting was a feature. He also played a wonderful defensive game.
When 71, Howard eleven earned possession of the ball in the first quarter. It plunged through the line of the Institute team and in 11 plays gave the ball to the goal line with the ball on, Institute 25 card line the West Virginia held the Blue and White for three the third.

The ball was kicked from such an angle that the star player for instance had about three yards of the space between the uprights to kick it. Two other attempts at a goal from greater distance failed, one from the 50 yard line.
Not a substitution was made by either team until the injury of Williams in the third quarter was that to come out and Walker was wounded in the second. The substituted for Motion for Howard. The weight and the speed of the Howard team was really the cause of the West Virginia warriors' downfall; but on the whole the teams were evenly matched. During the Second half the game was played without any blocked Payne. The play during the last two periods was nearly always near the center of the field. Several times it looked like one or the other of the teams would score, but the ball mercuried the goal. The game was brought back to the 29nd line. The game was allowed to progress in both both.

HARVARD, MA — Last Saturday, the Lincoln University football team played Morgan College and won by the overtime scoring of 62 to 60. The team had a good practice in this game, and it is beginning to run smoothly the various plays devised by Camp Sinclairburn. The men are all mixxions about the trip to Wilberforce, and this intercultural combat is likely to prove interesting.*

That and nothing more.'
ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY
Josée the strenuous summer then which many of the students have had to pass, the beginning of the second month finds the enrollment of this institution ahead of last year's enrollment to date. Students are still coming in and all indications are that we shall have a much larger student body this year than in last year, but in all sides of student development Under the direction of Prof. Jeffries assisted by Dr. Harius of Chicago, the team is being put into shape for the game with Wilberforce in Chicago, November 5. The football schedule takes the young men to Lane College for a game on the 28th of October. We know when the smoke of battle has cleared the field The team's history has already begun to discuss plans for the final of a tiefles into which they shall engage.
President S. A. Gown and Rev. S. L. Morshew, have just regretted for them, Knewville*Where they were in attendance upon the Tennessee Hap-shoot, that great body needs more antitumor injected into it along the lines of adequate support of the institutions. We are awaiting breaths.

President Owen, by the unanimous voice of the faculty, is to be the speaker for the occasion. The afternoon will be observed as holiday.

MANILA, Philippine Islands, Nov. 2
— in the event of war on the Pacific or elsewhere involving the United States, great Britain without question would support the United States, was the personal opinion of Lord Northcliffe, expressed in an interview here last Saturday in Japan, whose paper was called with the question of the Japanese Treaty of Alliance with Great Britain.
Replying to direct questions, Lord Northcott said it was his belief that should such a clash occur the whole family of British nations would stand and defend the people and stood beside the British in the still soiling confugion of Europe. He added that it seemed inconceivable that any contingency might arise to memory seriously "the inevitable improbable bonds that the English shook in the ultimate and supreme issues of humanity."
COLOR QUESTION TO BE DECIDED IN N. Y. COURT
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Q. What is your complexion?
A. I don't know that I am a Negro,
and that I may live as a Negro,
and the success of my business is
dependent upon it.
Defendants's Consequent: I what the
record to show it.
The Court: The man says he has
Negro blood in him by his mother.
That makes him a Negro irrespective
of his color.
The Court: Angel; I want to
show to Your Majesty that he is
white in color, complexion.
The Court: The courts have hold
that a man with one drop of Negro
blood in him is a Negro.
Defendants's Consequent: From the
he's a Negro he is white.
The Court: But you don't call him a white Negro.
Defendants, Counsel: We merely
state he is white.
The Court. You state he is a Negro for convenience.
Defendant's Counsel: But this complication is white, and I want the record to show that.
The Court. The fact that his complication may white does not make him a white man. You state this ad, that he is a Negro for convenience.
Defendant's Counsel: Is calling a man a white man a rime, idiosyncrasy?
The Court I didn't say that.
Defendant's Counsel: What does it do to hold him up to contempt? The Court: Anything leading to injure any person, corruption, etc., in his or their business or occupation.
Defendant's Counsel: He doesn't claim to be injured in his business or occupation.
Complaining Witness (Biggs) I certainly do.
The Court: It would seem from the advertisement itself that it is an enabler to present film from enraging the African Blood Brotherhood.
Defendant's Counsel. This is not a suit for injury to a man in business. This is a criminal libel, and there must be libel per so to constitute the crime of libel - criminal damage that the person damaged. There must be a case of libel per so. This does not hold him up to contempt or ridicule or accuse him of a ringley or that he has leathernosis disease, or was convicted of a crime.
The Court: You are wrong on your lies, counselor. I have no knowledge of the person, the circumstances, whether written or printed, a picture effigy, sign or otherwise, which has a tendency to injure any person, corporation or organization of persons, his or their business or occupation, is libel.
Defendants' Counsel. It must also be libelous per so, and must be guilty. To be libelous it must hold the person up to contempt, or accuse him of a crime.
The Court: You are referring to civil label.
Defendant's Counsel: I am talking criminal law.
The Court I have if right here?
Do you dispute the law?
Defendant's Counsel: My client wishes to examine the witness.
The Court You can't have an examination by two witnesses, you must examine. Either counsel appears for the defendant or the defendant appears in person. One or the other.
Defendant's Counsel: My client has a countercharge to make. He desires to file a countercharge.
The Court There cannot be any countercharge in a criminal case. He desires in a criminal action?
Defendant's Counsel: Not exactly. But he has a charge to make against the complaint for me.
Most Complete Plant of Its Kind In The United States.
The Court: If he has a complaint,
to make he knows what to do.
Defendant: I came to court to ask for a summons for criminal libel against him, and they said you would hear it at this hearing.
The Court: Have you any further questions to ask?
By Defendant's Counsel:
Q You have very unfriendly to this defendant?
A. No. I am not.
District Attorney: I object to this as immaterial.
The Court: Objection sustained.
Defendant's Counsel: Exception.
Q You have been publishing malice for this defendant.
District Attorney: Objected to as immaterial.
District Attorney: 1 object the word "competing."
The Court: objection sustained.
Defendant's Counsel: Exception.
The Court: Counsel did you objection 342 of the Penal laws?
Defendant's Counsel: Yes, Your Honor.
The Court: You did read it?
Defendant's Connect: I have read it.
Q There is rivalry between you and the defendant, is then, not?
District Attorney: I object?
The Court: Objective sustained.
Defendant's Connect: Exception by the Court.
Q You say you sustained injury by this publication? A. I have.
District Attorney: That is sufficient.
By Defendant's Counsel:
'Q. Have you lost your position?
Have you lost any position? A. I haven't any position to lose. I am a publisher.
Q. Have you lost any money? A.
Yes, I have. It has caused me expense so far, mid. it has brought upon me ridicule and even threats, also.
Q. Who threatened you? A. Here is a letter, for instance.
Q. Let me see it.
(Notness produces a letter.)
Q. Is that all you have, sir? A. I have been called up on the 'phone; I have also been threatened on the street. I have been passing groups of what I call Gary sites in thurium, a special followers of Marcus Garvey. They have made murals against, pe.
Q. When was that? Since the publication of these papers.
