This clearly have been humiliated by this alleged Republican organization/over since they have been organized and slowly but surely being eliminated and driven from the councils and caucuses of that element that is masquerading as a Republican party in this campaign.

C. M. E. BISHOPS TO BE ELECTED St. Louis Seems To Be Holy. Ground For Making Bishops. Indications Are, A Lively Scramble Will. Be Made For The Episcopal Honors. The General Conference of the Colored M. E. Church to be held in St. Louis in May will project a program that will recognize the New opportunities and sacred obligations placed before all agencies working for human uplift. This church is aggressive and has done really big things during the quadrennium now closing. The losing of two of its chief passages by death since the last General Conference and the rapid expansion and substantial growth of the church, seem to confirm the opinion among the leaders that New Bishops will be elected in May; they remembered that this church has not made any New Bishops since the General Conference met here eight years, ago, and it would seem that St. Louis is "holy ground" for making Bishops. Just who the lucky ones will be this time is not easy to tell. Due to the large number of worthy men who are willing to be offered up. Among those who have been before the church for several years are: Dr. N. F. Haygood and J. A. Walker, of South Carolina; R. T. Brown, of Alabama; R. S. Stout of Arkansas; J. McKinney, of Milwaukee; M. J. Martin and F. H. Rodgers of Tennessee; M. E. Brinson of Georgia. These men, it is said are capable and experienced and each possesses some excellent qualities. Among the younger men who, first for one reason and another stand out prominently and who are being pushed by their friends are: Dr. G. L. Tong of Washington, J. H. Moore, of Washington, J. H. Moore, of Washington, G. L. Word and C. W. Holsey of Georgia; J. A. Bray of Alabama; J. M. Reed, of Arkansas; J. A. Winterst of Illinois; G. M. Noble of Kentucky; N. L. Smith of Missouri; J. H. Douglas of Texas; W. J. Turner and Arthur W. Womack Published In The Interest Of Colored People THE MOB SPIRIT AND THE COURTS WORKTOGETHER West Virginia | Supreme CourtSays JudicialLynching Is Worst Kind. Grants New Trial To Negro, Arrested, Convicted, On Way To Prison In 24 Hours. By T. Edward Hill CHARLESTON, N. W. Va., March 22 "The mob spirit dictated this conviction." "The bloodthirsty mob spirit permeated the atmosphere of the trial and had its effect upon court and jury." The above quotation is from an unanimous opinion of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals, written by Judge Frank E. Lively, and handed down in the Circuit Court Tuesday ordering a new trial of Harry Lattimer, Negro, completed in the Circuit Court of Mingo County, on the charge of raping up, eight year old white girl on September 6, 1921. The same day he was arrested and within 24 hours had been indicted, tried, convicted, sentenced to be hung, and was on his way to the state penitentiary, according to the records of the case. The reason for this exceeding hurried conviction is apparent in the statement from the circuit, which has been made part of the record. In this statement the judge of the circuit court said: "I knew that leading was running high against the accused in and about the court, house and had some fear of job violence being inflicted on the accused if speedy justice were not meted out to him by the court." "The mob spirit has threatened this conviction," said Judge Lively, in his opinion. "The Blood-histrity—mob spirit, perpetuated the atmosphere of he trial, and had its effect upon the court and jury. The defendant may be guilty; that does not concern us. But he is entitled to fair and impartial trial to the calm, deliberate and uninfluenced, judgment of his peers Orderly and constituted governments demands such trial. It is a safeguard in which all members of society are interested and which should be keenly unheld and guarded. A judicial teaching is a graver and more starting crime than a lynching by an responsible rabble. It undermines the omission of orderly government and weakens respect for law and order. There should be no compromise with his spirit of lynching for any crime. "What we have said is entirely impersonal," he says, and is used to be considered as reflecting upon the conduct of the officials in charge of the case. The circumstances may have muffled the choice of what was considered the lesser evil. The duty is therefore imperative on this court to should the result brought about by a choice of evils, and to preserve to every member of society, however humble he may be, or however guilty he may be, the right of fair and impartial trial." **SYNTHESIS in case** In the syllabus in the case, Judge Lively said: "Where a person has been arrested for an alleged crime, committees on the day of arrest, and on the day following is indicted, tried, convicted sentenced to hang, and immediately taken to the penitentiary for that purpose, and appears in court immediately thereafter. If his defense was assigned counsel after he was ready for trial and plead not guilty, and the judge certifies that he knew that feeling was running high against the accused in and about the court house, and that he had some fear of mob violence being inflicted upon the accused if a speedy trial was not had; and it appears that no witnesses were summoned for the defendant, no motion made for change of venue, improper evidence admitted on the trial without objection on the prisoner's part, and a feeble and perfunctory defense, will set aside the verdict and award the prisoner a new trial, because he has not been recorded a fair and impartial trial."

EARLY HEARING IS EXPECTED EARLY HEARING IS EXPECTED Eminent Lawyer Has Signified Intention To Personally Appear Before Senate Judiciary Committee And Prove Constitutionality Of Measure. WON SEGREGATION CASE BEFORE SUPREME COURT NEW YORK. March 29. Senator Borah, as chairman of the Judiciary Committee, United States Senate, has said he would recommend a favorable report on the anti-lynching bill provided, he is convinced that the bill is constitutional. According to a statement issued by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, when the bill comes up for consideration, there will be plenty of support of the constitutionality of the bill ready to back the committee in its recommendation of the bill. Hon. Morf Storey Opinions of many noted lawyers and jurist are before the Committee in support of the bill but chief interest is centered upon the appearance of Hon. Moorfield Storey of Boston, National President, N. A. A. C. P. and former president of the American Bar Association, who will personally argue the constitutionality of the anti-lynching bill. From the standpoint of logic and reason, Mr. Storley is regarded as leading lawyer in this country. The Famous Segregation Case It is fresh in the minds of many, the famous segregation cases which at one time threatened every section of this country. The Louisville, Ky., case being the first to reach the United States Attorney General, and James through the efforts of Mr. Storley and his personal appearance before that tribunal which resulted in the segregation cases being knocked out and decharged null and void. Among others who have signified their intentions of assisting in this case, are: Wade H. Ellis of Washington, former assistant to the United States Attorney General, and admits A. Cobb former Assistant United States District Attorney for the District of Columbia. An early hearing is expected by the committee of which Senator Borah S. chairman. Grand Master Prespects Of Anti-Lynching As Seen By A. N. Correspondent At Washington. Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. March 29 Senator Wm. E. Borah, Chairman of the subcommittee in charge of the Dyer Anti-lynching bill, has let it be known that it is his opinion, that the bill will be brought up before the present Congress for further passage, prior to the recess appointment. From all over the country, the Senator is receiving requests from individuals and organizations, the canvassers, and urging that the bill be placed on the calendar. Senator Borah has replied to all inquiries that in the first opportunity he will arrange for hearings. It is known that the Senator realizes the great national interest in this legislation, and that he will lead the fight for, the passage of the bill, seems to be a forgive conclusion. James W. Johnson Executive Secretary of the N.A.A. A. C. P., and assisting in the public representation of the bill; held an interview recently informed as was the Associated Negro Press, that the constitutional phase of the legislation, will be the chief feature of the committee. To this end the best legal representation in the country is being enlisted, for the purpose of bringing out the facts on this particular subject. Moorefield Story of Boston; Former Attorney General Wickham of New York; Wm. H. Lewis of Boston and Edward H. Morris of Chicago; as was as Alexander H. Moore of Chicago in the high lights in the legal profession who will be invited to deal with the constitutional subject before the senatorial committee. Prevailing Senatorial Sentiment The Associated, Negro Press, both by personal interviews and correspondence, has learned that there is a prevailing sentiment in the United States Senate, particularly among bill-makers. Many of them have expressed their objection in no uncertain terms. From the lofty manner, in which these Senators discuss the necessity for the bill the charge of politics cannot be laid at their door. While it is true that a number of them are up for re-election, and of this number the majority are taking bold stand for the law, it is also true that a number of Senators whose terms are comparatively new, are likewise speaking favorably for the bill. The Colored people of the United States are asked to make the passage of the anti-tracking bill a subject of religious parameters.

Louise Herndon, rich as country cream, played by Mrs. Minnie L. Williams, who was good in her role and just as good to look upon. "Like the Herndon in Griffith's Dream Street, who asked God in man that will love her right. Poor nobody, nor gar that he was," loved her Right, and longed to tell her so, but poverty takes a man's nerve. Mr. P. R. Ross, played right up to his past record in this tree. Mrs. L. B. Reed, as Katty the house maid, made a great impression upon the audience, and poor Katty, couldn't understand how Miss Louise, could be both rich and unhappy at the same time. And so it is today, the poor wonder how the rich can be unhappy, the rich wonder how the poor can be so unhappy Dr. J. E. Gipson, as the much loved Dr. J. E. Gipson, as the much loved Mrs. Lula Madden, as Mrs. Ambrose, the scheming widow was a scream. Miss Viola Jackson; Mrs. Mabel Bailey, and Mrs. Curtis Jones; played well the characters they represented. Everything is unangled in the last act, and everyone gets who they love. It was a real good sermon in three tunes from entertainers; Mrs. Ola Johnson, Mrs. Mubel Hatton, and Miss Willettee Person, were just grand. The good humored audience was well attended, and it was just another big victory for the Pastor's Aid Club.

Waiting till we come home to her, Anxious if we are late; Watching from Heavens window, Leaning from Heaven's gate. So sadly missed by your only son, John. LOT SALE Great Future For Small Investors.

Johnson, Director of the Department of Research and Investigations of the National Urban League, Staff is now in Baltimore making an industrial survey of the Negroes there in co-operation with the Inter-racial Committee of Baltimore. Associated with Mr. Johnson are Dr. B. M. Rhotta and Professor Broadus Mitchell of the Johns Hopkins University. This survey, which is to record wages and conditions of labor, the progress and advancement on the job by industrial workers and the social conditions of their families, will be completed in from four to six weeks and the findings will be submitted as a basis for a practical program of improvement to be furthered by a group of interested Baltimore citizens. Mr. Johnson recently made a survey of the Negroes of Hartford and Flushing, L. L. and was Associate Executive Secretary of the Chicago Race Relations Commission, which studied the causes of racial misunderstanding at the request of Governor- Lowden of Illinois following the Chicago race riots George W. Buckner, Executive Secretary of the St. Louis Urban League, has gone to Palm for the third time to continue his activities. There, towards working out a program of improvement to be participated in its progressive white and colored leaders of that community. Jesse O. Thomas, Southern Field Secretary of the League, has submitted a program to the committee on Church Cooperation and is planning proceed to Tampa, Florida at the request of local citizens to anadugrate an Urban League program in that city. J. R. E. Lee, Extension Secretary of the League, has been in Richmond Va. during the past two weeks in an effort to entitle larger financial support from the colored citizens, of that community in the work of the League. Mr. Lee has met with admirable success, having secured $552 from the colored people of Richmond. T. Arnold Hill, Western Field Secretary made trips to St. Paul, Minneapolis and Indianapolis in interest of the formation of local Leagues. The national organization reports $39,678.79 in cash and pledges received to-date towards its budget of $59,770 for the year 1922. Is not the best place to build monuments for oneself not in the graveyard at the end of our journey, but in the hearts of our brother mortals as we journey through life? 1920 JOHN D. D. WILKERSON John D. D. Wilkerson, who is studying law at Cleveland Ohio, is very much interested in the profession. He subscribes to the doctrine of Better Trained Lawyers. Recently there has been much said about better trained lawyers, thriving the country, and in support of his contention. Mr. Wilkerson refers to an editorial which appeared in a Cleveland paper as reflection of his idea of the trained profession as follows: "Better Trained Lawyers." "While the national conference of bar associations was closing its sessions at Washington where an education booking to the better education of lawyers, the Cleveland Foundation was making public the report of a local survey on legal education. Both resolution and report, emphasize the same point; that for the good of the profession and of the public morp stress should be put on the training of lawyers." "Chief Justice Taft, Ellin Roop and former Attorney General Wickersham and others of enmence in the profession were the guiding minds of the Washington meeting and the resolution, adopted almost unanimously, asks that future members of the bar be required to have at least two years' college training in addition to their work in law. This minimum requirement is well below that of the best law schools; it is, of course, below what the average successful lawyer believes should be asked if the profession is to live up to its high opportunities." "The foundation gives of legal education in Cleveland gives the Western Reserve Law School high praise but certain other institutions training for the bar are criticized for graduating people into the practice of law without adequate preparation. The tendency of recent years is inward stiffer CHI DELTA FRATERNITY CLOSES ANN'L MEETING Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C.

March 29 The recent filing of the will of the late Bert Williams, premier Commedian actor, names his wife Charlotte Williams as executrix and gives to her the entire estate. The will was made on the day of his death. The value of the estate was not made known: Can you go up against seismic, ridicule and opposition without flinching? Can you keep your mind steadily on the single object you are pursuing, resisting all temptations to divide your attention? requirements and it is not to be doubted, that the result is a better equipment for public service and a gradual raising of the level of ability born at the bar and on the beach. "The public asks constantly higher standards, in this as in other lines of human activity. The safety of governmental institutions demands high mental standards in the legal profession. - Editorial in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. ST.

The City of Chicago is reverberatory just throughout the 2 and 3 wards, and its ghost threatens to react to the serious disadvantage of the man who is pointed out as the central figure in the outrage. Just seven years ago Charles Dayis a federal employee, now deceased and his wife, a teacher in the city schools purchased a house on Forrestville Ave in the 15th black, a neighborhood in which no Colored people had lived. When the time came for them to take possession, they parked their belongings in two large vans and drove up to the door of their new home. An angry mob greeted them wite hooks and jeers and inside of the house they found a cordon of police drawn up for the purpose of refusing them admission to their own property. Investigation showed that powerful influence had reported to the police that the new owners had already sold the property. A furore was created. The daily papers carried glowing and seemingly gleeful accounts of the humiliation and embarrassment which this family suffered in gaining entrance to their purchase. The whole city-watched the progress of the battle. The outgoing white tenants refused to turn the key over to Mr. and Mrs. Davis, but took it to the Woof Real Estate Co., which had sold the property. One of the neighbors who had been active in the crowd surrounding the house offered the service of his car and, when she surrendered the key, took it from the ring in the real estate office without permission. He then refused to give the key to Mr. and Mrs. Davis, who have never been able to gain possession, despite that for five years one of the most prominent attorneys of the face had their case in court without acc THE TRADE MAK Insurance Company Case Capitalization Or $100,000 Soon Named And Controlled Exclusively the State Of Missouri business. We have in our employ, many men and women of the race, and we are planning to employ many more in the near future. It is just as important to prepare places or a place for our boys and girls as a group; as is it to give them individual college training or education. Through this institution, men and women can procure representative positions. The coming generation will find, independent and lasting employment in view of this fact alone we feel that it is the duty of every man and woman of the race; to highly appreciate the efforts put forth by us in our plans to build this institution to what is should be. This is not the time to be looking for stars from other concerns. Look into your own organizations. Law a solid foundation for future posterity and above all, don't forget that the Douglass Life Insurance Company of America is your institution, organized in the state of Missouri, for the uplift and protection of the race and with your support we can and will build a lasting institution which will stand as a monument dedicated to the Negro race. A letter of inquiry will receive immediate attention. Douglass Life Insurance Company of America, Midway Bldg. 2148 Olive St., St. Louis Mo. W. H. Mosby, President; R. A.

The man whom the ghost is said to be troubling, Wallace G. Clark, has at various times been reported to be ally with sandy Hyde Parke association, is now a candidate for County Treasurer. The "Tribune" is right in its statement that the bombing of the actual bombers have been apprehended, but nevertheless, the ghost continues to dance much it is said to candidate Clark's discomfort, and the Colored vultures are up in arms against him. ALL RACES DEDICATE GALVESTON CHURCH Associated Negro Press. GALVESTON, Texas., March 29—The citizens of Galveston of all races took part on entrance day when the Mount Olive Congregation, of this city returned to their completed church. Hundreds could not gain admission although the structure is one of the largest in the Southland as well as the costliest, Dr. A. D. Hendon, the pastor is of national reputation, both as an evangelist and as pastor. The mayor of the city, Chas A. Kerman, the city attorney, Frank A. Anderson, the City Judge, Henry O. Dell, and the Judge A. G. Perkins one of the oldest lawyers of the city most present. Each delivered addresses in which they exalted the unexcelled qualities of the Mr. Olive congregation as well as the indomitable courage of those of their intrepid pastor, Dr. Hendon. The building is handsome veneered brick on the corner of 36th St and Ave. I. It is easily worth $50,000. The Rev. Dr. E. P. Jones of Eranston, III. President of the National Baptist Convention, unincorporated was the guest honor and preached at 3 and 8 p. m. The congregation voted that Dr. Hendon should accompany Dr. Jones to Jerusalem in October. Have you the courage to try to do what others have failed to do?

The death of Bert Williams removes an influence in public entertainment whose importance is greater than the public that seeks to be amused is likely to reallice. Of African descent, he had the subtle quality of original identity which interests, the personality which overcomes prejudice and, above all, the faculty of self-education. His school was the theater, lightly regarded by the tired business man, but nevertheless, broad as the comparison must seem, the school of Ascherm, Euripides and Sophocles. As the old poch adapte themselves the personal aloofness which claimed no consideration that his abilities could not command. He drifted into conditions peculiarly advantageous to his type. Fun, distinct from intellectual or satirical purpose, was the demand of the hour and he knew—possibly scarcely knowing how he knew—the way to supply it. His peculiary rewards for surpassed those of the average professional man. Yet thinkers and teachers gaily pald to him his drollers and thanked him for a clean and decent man; and he many brittle limitators have not been able to maintain. His sable humor was not merely a revelation of erratic identity, it was an interpretation, sympathetic and analytic. He displayed phases of humanity that his environment had permitted him to stoln, and by the tough of nature that makes—the whole world kni impressed himself in remarkable, predominance over the gorgeous stage trappings and elaborate mechanism of melody and necrotic which constituted a "ratting background for his genuine and unaffected comedy." (From the Washington Star.) Booker T. Washington once gave this advice to the Negroes of the South. He ought to be here now to give the same advice to the United States Senate. For the Senate is going to spend a lot of time and energy trying to secure Chinese rights against Japan in China, or native rights against Japanese in Transkalkalia, but the Senate is going to delay the consideration of Negro rights because burnet-toshing (Nyeb) has burned into political power, that the Senate can have much more influence on the Mississippi wrongs than on those of Asia. The Constitution of our Republic gives the Senate at least a bit of control in Mississippi, but not one whit of authority in Manchuria. And where the Senate has the smallest opportunity there it is going to give its chief attention. If it would spend half the breath against the inhumanity of robbing the Negroes of Georgia of more humanhood which it is going to lose, the political wrongs of the Japanese in Asia, something would be affected in the South of the United States. Very little is going to be affected in Asia even if the Senate talks for the next ten months. Of course, South Carolina and Tennessee will be willing to have the Senate discuss outrages in Asia, and they will prolong the discussion as much as possible in order never to get around to outrages at home and the Dyer, Anti-Lynching Bill. We could punish these devils in Georgia; we cannot, pinch those in Tokyo and indirectly but very effectively condone the @waltries of those in Jasper county. Why are we unwilling to do what we can, and pectend to be so determined to do, what we cannot yet do? Just men condemn the wrongs of Japanese against Chinamen as much as they condemn any crimes of the strong or organized against the weak or disorganized, but sensible and honest now want to make their conduct an example to men whom the Japanese beijing to our pectable citizens, why do we expect the Japanese to be just to Chinese who are not their own citizens, but are foreigners to Japanese? "Let down your buckets where, yot are," and stop trying to make a speech in Washington that will win a wreath of virtue by way of Kiao-Chow. (Kansas City Journal) The death of Bert Willems, the surviving partner of the famous negro team of Williams and Walker, leaves no present successor in the particular field in which he raised himself to stardom. He was preeminent as an interpreter of the "fall guy darkey" the victim of domestic infidelity or of ill-attained deprivation to cards or "galloping dominosa," and it was a frequent commentary on his career that if he had been white he would have been another Al Johnson, not only in artistry but in financial rewards. The bar staircase; however, prevented his admission into even professional circles open to white entertainers not worthy to stand in his shoes on their artistic merits. Williams's *a West Indian Negro*, reared in San Francisco, was in reality almost white in appearance. The young man on the stage also "makes up" a place for himself, but he was deprived of opportunities which a white face would have brought to him in abundance and that is the real tragedy of his career—a tragedy to be expected but deplored for all that.

That is to say, there is no antitue law, but there is the infinitely more law, because the bar abister which raises ramparts too high and strong for the black man to scale. In the American regular army Negroes are excluded from artillery units and promotion is denied in the medical and other corps. In the navy they are accepted only as mess boys. During the war period special training camps were established for Negro officers, but every possible obstacle was thrown in the way of the enjoyment of the rights which not even the dire exigency of the time could cause to be forbidden. Yet despite all this the black man fought as heroically as any other. It is very much to the credit of the Negro that, despite these inordinate handicaps, so many of his race are attaining prominence and success. There are in the South at the present time a revival of the co-operative efforts between the leaders of 'the two races to further the legitimate interests of the Negro, without in any sense raising issues which are taboo. NEGRO POST OFFICE EMPLOYEES Ry Wm. Pleckens For The Associated Negro Press A concern of "expert" investigators of New York City was hired by a commission of Congress to investigate efficiency of post office employees citing that the investigators claim that they found that the white employees are of a higher competency than the Colored employees. Even if we do not question the truth of this statement, we must in commensale call attention to the utter folly of the Conclusion which this investigation claims to have arrived at; That since the average white employee is more competent than the average Negro, the post office department should dismiss all Negro employees and hire only whites, as an "economy" measure. This conclusion overrides the fact that the road to the highest efficiency of all would be to dismiss both the incompetent whites and the incompetent blacks and retrain the most competent of both races. For even a group of statistical "experts" should not so far submerge common sense in mere arithmetic as to forget that if a group of whites is on the whole more competent than a like group of blacks, this does not mean that every one of the whites is superior to every one of the blacks is inferior to every one of the whites. If 100 white employees can do more postal service than 100 Colored employees (a thing which is not by and means proven), that would only mean that the white 100 has in it a greater number of efficient workers than the Negro 100 and it does not mean that the highest efficiency for the service would be reached by substituting the white 100 for the black 100, but by taking the most efficient of both groups and making up an efficient 100. For example, Mr. "Expert", if 60 of the 100 whites are competent while only 40 of the 100 blacks are competent, we should take the 60 whites and the 40 blacks, and drop the others. If we merely drop "black" for white, we are not dealing with the question of competence but with the bare, bald, ugle question of race and color, and we do more harm than we do good. If "the average white man" is "hitter prepared than the average Negro" that is a mere mathematical idea, for there is no such thing in the world as the "average man." We cannot emply the average white man, and we cannot dismise the average black man. If we dismise black men wholesale, we dismise many afflicted men; and if we employ white men because they are white men, we employ many inefficient men. There is no "average man" except in the mind of the statistical expert. Each man is a thing by himself, complete and whole, when it comes to the practical business of carrying mail or canceling stamps. If the statistical "expert" tells us that one and seventh man (1.7) man has 100 stamps, would he be sensible in expecting to find one and-seventh-man "man" in an ack stick, as to expect to find the "average man" carrying mail. Some men's intellectual machinery gets all out of order as soon as it hits the "color line." If we keepo pulse, we will consider the post office employees simply as a body of empe yees simply as a body of employees and will proceed to weel out the incompetent and retain the competent of whatever race. When Black Meets White By John Louis Hill For Associated Negro Press Chapter 3, Section 1. 3rd installment MISTAKES OF SOUTH AND NORTH For The Associated Negro Press Being a southerner by birth and early training, a northerner by long residence and, having known the Negro from close observation and friend list contact in both North and South, having studied the psychology of the "Old Time Negro" as well as that of the modern Negro, knowing the varying attitudes of southern and northern White people toward the Negro, the writer feels free and duty bound to set forth what he regards as some serious mistakes on the part of the Negro in the talks of both sections in their well meant conventions to solve the race problem in its connection; it goes without mention in their struggles forward and upward the Negroes themselves have often blundered. They, however, are more exasperable for their mistakes because they were less capable of looking into the future and of deciding such methods of procedure than were the White people. Considering the previous status of the Negro in America, this was to be expected. The first and greatest mistake of the South in its attitude toward the Colored man, a natural and inevitable one, perhaps was that after the Negro had been set free, the South still regarded him as inferior and a servant. However, in considering this point, discrimination is necessary. In a great and comprehensive sense, all men are born free and equal, and, in another sense while all should be born free, very few people of any color are born equal or remain equal after birth. For the Negro to be regarded as inferior just because the color of his skin is black and he be kept forever in a mental state because his ancestors were slaves in a position unifiable, illogical, unjust and inhumane, upheld by no right law of man and its variance with the laws of the Maker of us all. This has been the great mistake of the South in its attitude toward the Negro. A natural mistake of it. It is the inevitable result of heredity which only time can cure. That is, itaking there is not a doubt, for the press cet generation in the South is vastly more tolerant and considerate of the Negro than were the near preceding generations. On the other mind, with the idea of the Negro's servitude always in the fore, the South has been and is very kind to him. Indeed, ever since the days when many southern white children were nursed by the "Black Mammals" there has been a real affection between those "children" and their black neighbors. Between many of the white and colored people, there is a loyalty and confidence unsurpassed by any human relationships on earth. For many years a Colored man has worked with our family in Tennessee. He was a man on the farm before our father passed away, and ever since he remained with my brother. His loyalty and devotion to our family name, his watch-curve over my brother's children, his industrious interest in the farm, his tender sympathy in hours when sorrow comes, and a host of other beautiful traits all combine to make him one of the "whites" men in the world. In reminiscent hours with mind wandering down the beauti- fult ables of moryth, and that again at home with Father and Mother, "Abe is there. We meet us at the dept, or he opens the "big gate" for us to drive in, and it's always, "Howdy-do Mister John—I certainly am glad to see you." Yet, Abe is a Negro, and it is until it is destroyed there will exist between him and the "White_folks" he loves and who love him, that false sentiment which stamps him as in- ferior and a servant. This very mistake, on the part of the South, however, in a sense has been a blessing to the Colored people. One of the noblest virtues in the breasts of mankind is humility. It beautifies and strengthens, the individual possessing it and brings unhiding glory to the race or nation practicing it. The humility enforced upon the Negroes during slavery and the resilient humility from a lower social statum ultimately will earn for them a very high place in the scale of human excellencies. Christ "empiled himself, taking the form of a servant," humming in a manner that shall be the servant of all." To set before his discipline an example of humility, Jesus humbled himself and "washed their feet, the most mental duty of a household servant. The great post prophet, Isaiah, picturing the way that leads to exaltation, saying: "They that wait upon the Lord, (serve humanity) shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint." By "keeping the Negro in his place" the good people of the South unwittingly have kept him in the position most conducive to his gathering strength to fight forward to his real place in the ultimate harmonious association of all the children of men.

III., March 29—The police have wired a confession from Frank Lee, 16 a colored boy who declares that Charles Shimer, 19 whites killed his father and sister because he feared they would expose his operations as a burglar. The sister Margaret was 16 years old. Charles told the police that she killed herself because her parents objected to her marrying Lee. Shader admits his father, but says he did it in self defense. He denies killing his sister. The police Shader also had a hand in the murder of Policeman H. J. Busse, last January. Both youths confessed to more than 150 robberies in the last few years. Lee in his statement to the police asserted that Mrs. Edward E. Shadget mother of Charles, disposed of the loot. "Mrs. Shadget got Charles and me to rob the house." Lee said, "For a while we had Summit McCaskie, who years old; with us. He is so small that he could almost go through a ketchel. Charlie on the day he killed his father, was killed, and Mr. Shadget he would tell the police if we didn't quit that business. Margaret wanted to get me away from Charlie and had threatened to tell the police. SundaySchool Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D. Emanuel, of English Bibl in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) Copyright, 1922, Western Newspaper Union. LESSON FOR APRIL 2 ASA RELIES ON GOD LESSON_TEXT-II Chronicles 14:1-12 GOLDEN TEXT-Help us, O Lord our God, or we rest on Thes. II Chron. 14:11 MATERIAL II Chron. 14:11-18; Isa. 4:10-13. PRIMARY TOPIC-A King Who Trusted God. JUNIOR TOPIC—God Helping Asa. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC A Ruler Who Relied on God. THE SOURCE OF MORAL AND ADULT TOPIC The Source of Personal and National Power. I. Aza's Reformation (vv. 1-5). Asa was the grandson of Rehoboam, Both his grandfather and father favored idolatry, but in spite of this record of his ancestors, Asa had a will of his 'own', not, though young when he came to the throne, inaugurated a campaign of reform which brought great good. He not only had the handicap of the idolatry and immorality fostered by the two former kings, but he had to codify against the influence of his mother who had encouraged immoral worship (I. Kings 15.13). In order to carry out his reformatory, measures he had to wrest authority from her by deposing her. Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the Lord (v. 2). 1. Cleared the land of idolatrous emblems and images (vv. 3, 5). (1) Strange altars. These were the altars devoted to other gods. (2) High places. These were places where unlawful sacrifices were offered. (3) Broke down the images. These were upright stones connected with idolatrous worship. (4) Cut down the groves. These were trees or poles connected with tree worship. He had all these relics of idolatry destroyed in Jerusalem and other cities throughout his kingdom. 2. Commanded Judah to seek the Lord (v. 4). He knew that of the reformation was to be effective it must be by the positive seeking after and worshiping of God, accompanied by obedience to His commandments. Destructive work avails little unless followed by constructive. III. Aag's Defensive Preparations (vv. 0-8). 1. Built fortified cities (v. 6). The cities are not named, but the meaning, doubtless, is that it was a general system of defense which involved the cities' at strategic points. 2. He erected walls about the cities (v. 7). These were usually of stone. Upon the walls were observation towers from which the position and movements of the enemy could be seen, and from which defensive warfare could be waged. 3. Made gates and barred them (v. 7). The reason he assigns for these defensive preparations was that they had sought the Lord God. Those who really trust God will make every effort to provide defense. 4. Had an army of spearmen (v. 8). These spearmen were also protected with large shields. The army was made up of 480,000 brave men. They were prepared to wage an offensive as well as a defensive war. III. Asa's Victory Over Zerah, the Ethiopian. (v. 9-12). 1. Aas' set the battle in array (v. 10). He went out to meet the enemy. he first made a disposition of his means of defense. This was wisdom on his part. Intelligent faith moves the possessor to do first that which is within his power. 2. Aas's prayer (vv. 11, 12). He cried unto the Lord. He sought the source of national power. In this prayer note (1) his conscious helplessness. As he faced the Egyptian army two to one against him, he was clearly conscious of his impotency. The first requisite in obtaining help from God is conscious weakness. The Christian conquerors not by self-reliance, but by self-distrust and faith in God. (2) Appeals to God for help. He knew that though they were helpless before the mighty enemy, with God's help they could win the victory. One man with God is a majority. (3) Reposes faith in God. The word "rest" means to lean upon—to cast the entire weight upon. In the measure that we realize our need of support will we lean hard upon God. (4) Advanced courageously. He went forth depending upon God to fight for him. Real faith does not wait until it sees its way clear, but goes out expecting God to clear the way. (5) Kung himself upon God's arms. "O Lord, thou art our God." His cause was God's cause. If God has taken us for His people, and if we have taken Him for our God, no enemy can prevail against us. May we experimentally say, "Thou art my God," and hear Him say, "I am thy God!" 3. The Egyptians smitten (v. 12). The enemy fed before Israel and could not recover themselves. Love, Faith and Hope. A little love from day to day, and strength enough to preach it; a glimpse of heaven along the way. And faith and hope to reach it. Console Thyself. If then suffer injustice, console thyself, the true unhappiness is in doing it—Democritus. Mistake Gold for Good. Misera mistake gold for good, whereas it is only a means of obtaining it—Rochefoncault. One of the best paying professions open to women today, is scientific Beauty Culture.

OPTIMISM PERMEATES THE BASEBALL CAMPS Worth Of New Faces Armure New Interest As Chips Launch Out Into Real Practice By Dave Wynn AUGUST 1900 MARCH 1900 a week of April will see every one of the big Colored ball teams out on the field ball field. All the tournament athletes have been organized by their respective clubs at headquarters prepared to take the ball heavy preliminary preparation that曼佛利 will be the role this year with all the players. There is not a club in the West organization that has less than 21 men in sight, some have 20 and will need to bring more have a line up that be definitely established and at the same time satisfy the cravings of the rabid ball fans that infect the various roses of the western circuit organization. population is rife as to what kind of showing the new clubs are going to make against the chief, with the latter carrying the big end of the westside and the bulk of the playing material of established fame. The Keystones of Pitigames enters the western circuit quint of base ball game in organized ball, and to our knowledge, no a man, unless it be manager Dismakes, has displayed his epiphany to the great body of fans. The keystones unknown quantity and as we see it they are willing to take all on the screen against many of the league clubs a exhibition games upon the home led the Keystones / played 25 games against seven of the league clubs last season. They lost 15 and won 40 for a percentage, of 40. For the sake of comparison, we find that the Culen tars, the Culenri club of last season, played 25 games at home; they lost 12 and lost 9, for a percentage 301. The Culenrs played the game that the Keystones cagged; they finished seventh in the penultimate. The Indianaapolis A B C's played 27 games abroad in the league race they won 7 and lost 20 for a percentage of .250. The Keystones broke even with the A B C's in a four game series and went fifty-fifty with the American Airlines in a two game series. Against the league clubs, the Pittsburgh scored 129 runs, an average of 5 runs per game, against 150 runs for the league game, an average of 6 runs per game. Against all opponents, in one manual game, the Pittsburghs won 57 and lost 43, for a percentage of .570. It looks like the Keystones have a chance. But what of the Tate Stars of Cleveland? Jim Timley's record as leader of the Tate Stars against the Keystones of Pittsburgh is a criterion and the Cleveland maintain such a place this time, the Forest city fans should hear-penalty flags shipping as early as July. Cleveland won to games and lost 83 against the Pittsburgh, scoring 91 runs against 62. They averaged 7 runs per game, batting a league wubs showing by an average of one run per game. Their performance was against the league wubs, was 784, with the best the league clubs could draw, with 606. Jim Taylor has worn out and a few men who have already had experience among the leagues. Britt is one of the real stars of the universe. Keaton and Ricks are sure comics and Tranham should storm the competition this time. Mechain will start third season as a leader and should show. Jim Timley's ability as a hitter is well known and respected, but his ability as a leader and develops of young talent is likely to be felt this year. KANSAS CITY MONARCHS REPORTING FOR DUTY Club Has Big Army Of Good Talent out Coming In, Including A Number Of Army Men Special to the Argus KANSAS CITY, March 29- Things are beginning to land around the Meadows Headquarters and Secretary Q. J. Gilmore is about the busiest man in the city getting things ready for the opening of the coming season. Moore the poorest shorthop, and Joe Mendez, hopped off the Sun Tec Foat, the fresh from their winter campaign in California, and both are fit for duty. Regan, Duncan, Crawford, Donaldson, Bell, and Curry, together with Mendez, and Moore, are working out daily at the park. The Management has had considerable trouble with a few holdouts but the addition to several new men will fill all vacancies that might exist. Several Rightly touted players are now on their way to join the team in Spring training, and it is expected that four or five of them will make good Heavy Johnson, Catcher; Russell third sacker, and Linder, all from the 20th teamwork; U. S. A. will reoff for duty in time to start the season. Linder is the greatest pitcher in the Army and great things are expected from him. Johnson no doubt will fill a junch need want as a catches as he has and years of experience tends fit, and weighs over 200 lbs. Russell, has been holding down the third sacker for the Army and he is expected of mike Portsmouth, the great Cuban fight for his position. Cuban is a second sacker from Denver who has been playing ball with the leading Salem-town team of that City was the covered by the Scout for the New York Yankees and team-member him to the management of the Moyers. Fagan who played second for the Monarchs last season, will have to battle to keep Anderson from holding down this season. George Savitt, the first sacker from Jola, Kanspis, now leading the Pittsburgh, Kansas National School is about the closest hooking out to break into the league. He has played base ball, football, and is now playing basket ball on that third position which is a varsity school and from all reports the first base position will go to him. He stands over Celt field and weight about 100 lbs. Taylor who pitched for Vince Chicago Games will be with the Monarchs this season, and will know that Taylor is one of the test in the league. Great things are expected of Curry this year as last year he reported bad condition and condition and was not of much service to the team. Glissantner the defender formally with the Gapman's Buckeyes last season will be with the Monarchs this season and will fill a much needed want as the team was short of a good left tacker at season. George Carr no doubt will be found in right field this coming season, and from the way he has been aching the ball in California, this winter, the fielders of the other league teams are going to go way back for his hits. Curr, with McNair and Fagan, are now playing exhibition games in the North West and are expected to report on the first of the month. About 15 men will report for tryouts with the team this season and they all claim that they are coming to stay. Once, the stocker of the Buckeyes last season will report together with Jew-Beppei who is about the most looking young fielder in the game. Great Bullet Bagan, the Ace of Negro pitchers says that he is going to have his greatest year. From all accounts the Monarchs will be able to look after them, the coming season. The possible line up of the Monarchs the coming season is as follows: 1st Bortman or Russell, S. M. Moore, 2nd B. Portmania or Russell, S. M. Moore, 2nd B. Portmania or Russell, S. M. Moore, Johnson, Duncan and Onel! F. M. McNair; F. Dempfollan; R. F. Carr; Pitchers, Began, Arner, Bell, Taylor, Linder, Glissantner and Onel!

PITTSBURGH KEYSTONES LINED UP FOR SEASON National Negro League Club To Consist Of Sixteen Players. Start Training Apr. 2. Special To The Argus PITTSBURG, Pa., The Pittsburgh Keystones, the local entry into the Negro National League, have ended their second week of practice. The entire roster of players are in training with the single exception of Corbett, who writes from his home in Orlando, Fla. that it will be impossible for him to leave before the 29. Owing to difficulties encountered in watching a large number of players in training, the Keysfoile manager will have only sixteen players report. O, last year's team who have been trained, are: Haynes and Brown, catchers; Corbett and Salmon, pitchers; Williams and Barton, infielders; Gray, outfielder. The New comers gro, Htown, and Stagger, outfielders; Washington and Gooden, infielders; Garden and McCall, pitchers. Although snow and cold weather kept the Keystones indoors most of the time, they were not entirely able. The players assembled each day and a general discussion held, in regards to different plays that might come up during the season. In the first outdoor practice, Williams, last year's short fielder was moved, to third base-base Washington, a new comet on the team, was placed at short. This change, without a doubt, will greatly strengthen the Keystones inner works, giving them an infield which will compare favorably with any infield in the circuit. The Keystones - will leave for Ridgeway, Pa., Sunday April 2nd for spring training remaining there two weeks. BREAKERS WHITEWASHED BY POINCY STAR HURLER Pitching the best brand of baseball that has been shown here this winter, Dickey Johnson, Poincena hurrier, and star box artist of the Indianapolis colored baseball team, whitwashed the Breakers in the last game of the season, played on Flager Friday Tuesday, March 11th. A large crowd of fans were on hand to see the contest. Seven large goose eggs were the portion served to the Breakers players and as the Poincena team life, life and scored three times in back of Johnson, the official figures of the post mortem gaffer read: Poincena, 3; Breakers, 6. Three hits, all singles, were all that Shelley's champions could得 from Johnson today. The Poincena won the game in the third inning when Clarke polled on a hit, went to second on a passed ball and scored when Barber drove one past third base. This was enough to win the game, but they scored two more in the fifth caddist just to show the fans the first run was not a mistake. Neither pitcher, hilfed to start the game get in the flow. In place of working "lefty" Flormour, Skelley sent, Gibb spie to the mound and the youngster did very well except on the two twins when the Poloceanis saved their runs. Experience is all that he needs and with another summer mallet hbs bolt, he should be a first chaser hurrier next winter. "Shufflin Phil" Cockrell increased his batting average by getting two hits out of three trips to the plate. He was the only player who could do a thing with Johnsons's shoots. Jack Johnson being the only other player to confess for a bingle. Bob White caught his usually line game and the "Gold Dust Twins" Raggs and Krump paid good ball. Allen was also there, but the real feature of the game, aside from the pitching of Johnson, was a running catch by Cockrell out in the bushes. Johnson had so much stuff on the ball that his fielding did not have to work hard for the pitouts. The score by innings. Breaksees ..... 000 000 0 - 0 3 0 Policlinia ..... 001 020 0 - 0 3 0 Good Bouts At Philadelphia PHILADELHIA, Pa. March 29- The recent meet held at the Golden Gate Club furnished such classes, 1639 entertainment, and open local local fans to the possibilities, at least one unknown who is believed to be a coming toot notcher in the 144th class. Sailor Durden at 144 played with Sandy Tayler, 143, who has been considered a mighty good man in his class and in spite of aggressive action on the part of Taylor, who had the advantage in the first two rounds, Durden always was seen coming back and asking for more. Beginning with the third round until the end, the fight was all Durden's. The best bout of the night, however, was the semi-windup between Duke Avery 150 pounds, and Johnny Howard 157. The belt served Avery in the third round but the game Chester man came back in the fourth and after the first few seconds shot a hard right to How. ardis jaws, flooring him for seven counts. Avery was too weak from the punishment the third round to follow up his advantage and Howard come back in the fifth and laid Avery down for six counts, getting up and taking a fearful beating, for the final seconds of the round until he went down for the count.

Wills On Trail Of Champion At Boston BOSTON, Mass., March 20—Tyr dropped them when he have hit them and if I hit Jack Dempsey he will troop to" was the laurel comment made by Harry Wills, "Brown Panther", and generally considered the best of the many contenders for the heavyweight boxing championship of the wolf, when interviewed, at the old Howard Theatre during an engagement here. Harry Wills is not a beater and every statement he has made concerning possibilities of a fight, with the champion and the legitimate outcome of the match is tempered by the colored man's belief in himself and by his knowledge that Dempsey is a dangerous opponent. "Sure I want to fight him," said Wills. "I believe I have a chance to beat him although I know he is a strong man, full of confidence and with two good hands of which is dangerous. If I bit him he will fall though and I deserve I can bit him." Demsey appeared at the CFA Howard for an exhibition a few weeks ago and Boston fans have had an opportunity to make a comparison of the two big fighters. Wills appears to have the advantage of Demsey in weight and speed but, from his exhibition rounds it was difficult to form an opinion because Jeff Clarke, his sparring partner, seemed to be constantly in fear coming in contact with Wills' dangerous short arm lab and the 'exhibition was made of a clenching match than sparring. As a shadow boxer the black champion gave an exhibition of speed, ease of movement and conservation of effort which shows to be all that his admirers have claimed for him.

A. Schedule for the Bloomer Girls will be announced soon. NEW YORK ALIVE WITH AMUSEMENT PROJECTS The Associated Negro Press NEW YORK, N. Y., March 29- Harlem has had a 1922 business awakening. It is manifesting itself in activities that have to have a nation set and besides being inspiration for the future. It further demonstrate the aroused commercial consciousness of the people. Notable among the Events that point to the signs of the times, is the marvelous growth of the Page Photograph Company, producing the Black Hair Records, and instruments, Harry H. Pace, president of the company, informed the Associate in Negro Press, that that organization is placing branch offices in all of the principal states of the country, and will shortly double its producing capacity. Working under handicaps that would have discouraged less experienced business men, this company The St. Louis Tigers last year, in an audited statement, shows that more than $100,000 worth of business was transacted. The company now occupies an entire building on Seventh Avenue and gives employment to scores of people. As an indication of the high standard of production attained by this company, together with the popular and sentimental numbers for which it is noted, it has just released several selections in Grand Opera singing by Madam Antolinette Garnes, of Chicago who is a prominent member of the Chicago Grand Opera Company, now playing in New York. Madam Garnes is the wife of Dr. Harry Garnes of Chicago. "Reel - Negro News" Leigh Whipner, who for a number of years was assistant director of Davil Griffith, has opened offices on Seventh Avenue, where he is not only producing a remarkable pictorial news reel, equal to those of the well known organizations, but he is also preparing to produce pictures with Colored characters which, from his unusual experience, promise to be a sensation picture world, Mr. Whipner has followed new idea, and has made an arrangement with the associated Negro Press, whereby cheapies from our newspapers will be thrown regularly upon the screen throughout the country. In the same building, Sissela and Blake, Miller and Lyles, stars of the famous "Shuffle along" company, which for a year has been packing them in on Broadway, have opened booking offices where they will not only send out road shows and produce movies but will handle their musical successes. Oscar Micheaux, of the Micheaux Film Corporation, with headquarters in Chicago has practically completed his latest movie production in New York, which is said to be his most pretentious effort and is greatly encouraged for the business outlook for the year. "To the Associated Negro Press, he said 'I'll all of us working together, we cannot only raise the standard of our commercial achievements, but we can give employment to the growing talent of our race, and other enterprises." HAYS HOLDS CONFERENCE Associated Negro Press Wil H. Hayes, former Postmaster General, now President of the Motion Picture Produces of America, recently held a conference with J. A. Jackson of the editorial staff of the Billboard, in which he expressed his great interest in the subject of movies as they affect Colored Americans. The Associated Negro Press can state with authority that it is the purpose of Mr. Hayes to give special attention to this subject in the relation to Colored people in the broadest way. Not only will he consider the business but the entire ethical side and if it is evident that there will be some distinct advantages worked out under the Hayes direction of this field. J. A. Jackson is regarded as one of the best authorities in the country on the moving movie subject. He has begun a tour of the South and West looking into the general field of the entertainment world, and will be absent from New York for more than two months. CLEF CLUB ON BROADWAY The famous Cliff Cubs of New York composed of more than two hundred of the leading musicians of the race is giving a series of Sunday night concerts at the Lyric Theater, that have become the talk of the big city.

This grand organization has an indisputable place in the cat, in showing the musical achievements of our people. Salesmanship is simply ability to spread the gospel of personal belief.

Hall Associated Negro Press FLORENCE, Ala., Mar. 22 — The daily newspapers inform us that there is a rush of people to the Muscle Sharks district, Alabama, that is not unlike the rush to Texas and Oklahoma following the discovery of oil. This exodus is due to the confidence the people have in Henry Ford, of automobile fame, who announced that if he could purchase or negotiate a long term lease with the government for the dam and nitrate plants at Muscle Sharks, he will be able to build 75 miles of villages and develop them into a city that will rival New York. It is claimed that real estate in the region across wich Ford's meandering city would be built, is changing hands and rising in value hourly, that orchards are being planted, truck farms being laid out, and that the activities of the prospectors, investors and adventurers have completely changed the atmosphere of the quiet and sleepy little towns not only in Madison, Morgan, Limestone, Lawrence, Colbert and Landerdale counties and the towns in northeastern Alabama, but old estates that have been kept intact since the Civil War are being placed on the market and sold at increasing profits. The 75 miles of villages are compiled by Henry Ford will be between the cities of Huntsville, Madison County on the east of Muscle Shoals, and Florence in Laundale County on the west. In these six counties which border, the northern and southern banks of the Tennessee, river and form the Muscle Shoals District there is, according to the census of 1920, a total population of 218,665 inhabitants, 60,845 or nearly 28 per cent of whom are *gross*. Among this group there were about 1,555 farmers who owned approximately 100,000 acres of land, valued approximately at four and one quarter million dollars and has been reported that these farmers have been greatly benefited by the sudden boom in values. The market value of these farms, not including the buildings, implements and machinery and live stock, has probably passed the ten million dollar mark by this time. The Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical College is located at Normal Madison County; the Oakwood Manse Training School, at Huntsville, Madison County. The Burrell Normal School located at Florence, Landale County and Trinity School in Athens, Limestone County. At Cypress Lawrence county is the North Alabama Baptist Academy. All of these institutions will take a new lease on life. If Mr. Ford is successful in his prop development of the Muscle Shoals project. The Americans of the middle class have the majority and the sense; but also, they have no courage. El Howe. Are such ideas too old-fashioned for this fervent twentieth century when the aim of many is to get money without out sweating to earn it? Have von the nerve to attempt things that the average man would never dream of tackling? W. C. WILEY ..... Manager JAMES D. GLASS ..... Secretary WILLIAM PICKENS ON THE GHANDI ARREST Associated NORK, Press. NEW YORK, N. Y. March 22—Have you followed the arrest of Ghandi? a reporter asked Wm Pickens of the N. A. A. C. P. Yes, he said but what good can it do? The British arrest Ghandi and put him in jail. The British cannot put India in jail. Desperation in the strong is a pitilable sight; it means violence for when the strong lose hope of the finesse of coercion and the persuasion of fear, they violate their own laws and unmask their real intentions. But the spirit of India cannot be Jailed. One can stop such a natural revolution by arresting and jailing the individual who happens for the moment to be the leader of it, if one can check the advance of the tide by dipping a quart of water from its foaming crest and carting it off to a dry spot. Ghandi's preachment is not merely non-resistance. It is something a bit more active and somewhat heavier the positive than that; it is non-cooperation. This will have the same effect as resistance, where the oppressor is in need of co-operation with the oppressed. It is in fact the strike which is a third something between non-resistance and offensive direct action. Britian cannot allow complete non-conservation in India unless Britian is willing to give up India. Britian will not give up India without a great fight: Somebody Britian will give up India. But Britian's failure is the measure of Ghandi's success; he has demonstrated the real strength of the common masses of men. His "strike" had not yet become perfected through India, but even the threat of its success has shaken local government to its foundations and confused the states men of the Empire. Suppose the whole Negro population of Georgia should strike, and should cease to co-operate. Georgia would besame desperate quicker than Britain. When great numbers of southern Colored folks were coming north during the recent migrations, in many southern communities the whites used legal trickery or illegal force in efforts to keep the blacks from going—even from withdrawing. The oppressors seeds the oppressed, else there can be no oppression. If the Negro should move the south, bless you, what would be cheap labor, of Jim crowism of the spoon of cruching and of "white supremacy"? He can you be "superior" if there's nothing to be superior to? We do not want the oppressed to move, and we won't get them quit." It has been facetiously said that the workingman in our country has one and only one inalienable right. "The great American right to quit." But even this right will prove to be not "malenable" if too many of them resort to it. One could see all along that the British did not really want to arrest Ghani, 'for they knew it' would be blundersome, but the oppressor will try anything as a last resort; witness the Germans in Belgium, the Belgians in the Congo, the Japanese in Korea, and the Iraqis in Haiti. And violence in the failure of the oppressor—in Ireland, in India, in Egypt, in the Korean peninsular and in the island of Haiti. Have you the persistence to keep on trying after repeated failures?
