Bishop Williams has been the outstanding leader of colored methodism for about a quarter of a century. He is a man of the most capable parliamentarians of the race. He has few equals and no superiors in handling large assemblies. He is a great preacher and has one of the most successful leaders in American Methodism. Retired Bishop Lane Coming Associating with him in the opening of the Conference will be the noble hero, the grand man sublime in character, the Right Rev. Isaac Lane, D. D., retired Bishop of the church. He is perhaps the oldest living Bishop in the world having been elected and consecrated in 1873 and presided continuously up until eight years ago when by his own request he was relieved from executive responsibility. He is one of the greatest characters American methodist has produced. He is still an inspiration to high and holy living and to righteous endeavor. Bishop Elias Cottrell has distinguished himself as a great speaker and preacher. Perhaps the race has had no more fearless champion of manhood rights than Bishop Cottrell. For years he has traveled over the country and spoken fervently concerning the injustices with which his race has been afflicted. He has promoted.

He is an orator of nation wide fame and has preached to large audiences in America and abroad. His message on this occasion is looked forward to with high anticipation and no doubt it will go a long way in shaping the spiritual purpose of the Conference. The quadrennial message has been prepared and will be delivered by the Right Rev. R. A. Carter, Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese. He is a man of rare genius, well trained, widely read, large experience and with a national fame as a writer and speaker. His message grins the people from one side of the country to the other. He has the distinction not only as a great orator and author, but as a missionary in church expansion, for thru his leadership the church has had phenomenal growth in the north and northwest during the last few years. His message will ring the key note for the guidance of the General Conference. Consecration Sermon By Phillips The conscription sermon will be delivered by the Right Rev. Chas. 'Billips, D. D., Presiding Bishop of Ala., mm. Ohio, and California. The name of Bishop Phillips is a synonym of culture, erudition and rare eloquence. He has spoken throughout the country and has charmed large audiences in Europe several times. His many years experience, unusual talents and superb training stand him in front among the leaders of world methodism. Among the general officers who will make reports are Dr. J. C. Martin who is closing out his tenth year as Book Agent of the church, Dr. R. N. Stont who is closing out his fourth term as Church Extension Secretary, making him the oldest general officer on the staff. During the present quadrennium he has established a house for the Church Extension Department in Louisville, Ky. The missionary report will be made by Dr. J. H. McCormor who is being praised everywhere for the fine attentions that has attended his efforts in that field. Dr. A. R. Cal The St. Louis Argus READY FOR THE C. M. E. GENERAL CONFERENCE DR. N. L. SMITH Whose Church Will Be The Official Host Of General Conference The one man who is responsible for the return to St. Louis of the General Conference of the C. M. E. Church in the short space of eight years, is Dr. N. L. Smith, the present pastor of Lane Tabernacle Church of this city. Dr. Smith has labored hard to make this the greatest Conference in the history of the church During his pastorage here, Lane Tabernacle has grown faster than any church in the connection The present site located at Newstead and Enright is the most beautiful edifice of worship in this city. The General Conference will be the guest of this church. Friends of Dr. Smith regard him as an outstanding minister of his church, and his name is frequently mentioned for Episcopal honors on his record. REGIONAL CONFERENCE MADAM WALKER AGENTS Mrs. Leilia Walker-Wilson, The President Will Be Present And Speak To Gathering INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Apr. 24. A call has been issued by the Madam C. J. Walker Mfg.

Copeland will represent the Department for Superannuated Preachers. He has done a great work this quadrenium and has placed the interest of the worn out ministers upon the heart of the church, Dr. J. A. Lester will represent the Sunday School Department being the only layman on the general office staff. The church papers have been edited this quadrenium by J. A. Hamlett. Christian Index, Dr. J. R. Starks, Western Index Dr. J. C. Walker, Methodist Herald, Dr. G. M. Noble. The Colored Methodist, and Dr. J. N. Reed The Arkansas Index. Wonderful Progress Of Church The church has made wonderful progress both extensive and intensive and is meeting the challenge of the present day with a vigor that in itself claims confidence. No doubt at this General Conference the College of Bishops will be increased by the addition of three or four new bishops. Who they will be is a question that will not be settled, until the votes are counted. Many of the brethren are willing to be offered up but only three or four can be chosen. Other matters of vital importance will claim the attention of the Conference, such as designation of foreign missionary enterprises, enlarging the sphere and activities of the various departments of the church, standardization of our church schools, perhaps the creation of a Department of Finance, and there seems to be a favorable sentiment for giving this department into the hands of some of the capable laymen of the church. The matter of the new Publishing House, to be located in Nashville will likely be re-emphasized, and other things of interest to the people will claim serious and prayerful attention. Published In The Interest Of Colored People COLORED MAN DECLINES APPOINTMENT AS DEPUTY INTERNAL REV. COLLECTOR Chicagoan Who Is Clerk To House Committee On Naval Affairs Prefers To Retain Position. Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Mr. Apr. 6—Frank A. Byron made a quiet trip here from Washington recently to decline appointment as Deputy Internal Revenue Inspector. Federal officials expressed surprise as refusals of this sort have been rare, but Mr. Byron had an enormously good reason for his refusal. The position which he holds in Washington is infinitely better than anything which the administration is offering in district offices, even the salary being a thousand or two higher. Mr. Byron, who is a Chicagoan has the distinction of serving as clerk to the House Committee on Naval affairs, his appointment marking the first time a Colored man has ever held a position as clerk to any committee. He won the position through merit and because he knew the work, having served the committee in various capacities for the past 20 years. Mr. Chris Pickett for years trusted confidential secretary to the late Senator Culion and now with Senator McKinley is credited with being the power which brings things to pass for Illinois. While he works modestly and quietly, Mr. Pickett is always on the qui vive to do the thing which can be counted to be of the greatest good to the group. THE MISSOURI NEGRO REPUB.

The waiter is Win. Taylor Johnson. For more than 20 years he has had charge of the cafe club car on the train between Chicago and the Twin cities.

LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, APRIL 28. 1922 N.A.A.C.P. OPENED ITS SPRING DRIVE MONDAY APRIL 24 Will End In Anti--Lynching Conference At Newark, N. J., June 18-23. President's Signature Foregone Conclusion If Bill Passes. Special to the Argus NEW YORK, April 27—"Lynch Law Must Go," is the slogan of the Spring Drive of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which opened Monday April 24, and culminating in an anti-lynching conference in Newark, N. J. from June 18 to 23. The entire weight of the Association's forces throughout the United States, is to be applied in an organized pressure toward the enquiry by the Senate of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, already passed by the House of Representatives. There is no doubt felt in the National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. that President Harding will sign the measure if and when the Senate enters it. In fact, the president's signature is looked upon as a foregone conclusion. The N. A. A. C. P. campaign on the Dyer Bill has already been begun in two states. Michigan and New Jersey, where local elections are made to binge on that issue. Colored voters and the press through out the country are being asked to make it clear that the Republican Party will be held responsible for the non-performance of its duty and its pledge to pass some such legislation as the Dyer Bill.

P. is being presented to Vice President Coolidge in his capacity of presiding officer over the United States Senate. KU KLUX KLAN DRAMATIC WARNING AT PATTERSON Flery Crosses Burn On Hill Over New Jersey City, Police Will Prosecute. PATTERSON, N. J., Apr. 26.—What is thought to be a local branch of the Ku Klux Klan formally introduced itself to the natives of Patterson by means of three flaming crosses which appeared on Garret Mountain. The blaze was seen for miles. Following this, letters written on official stationery from the Klan's headquarters in Atlanta, Ga., were left at the offices of the Patterson newspapers reading as follows: "The fiery crosses burning on the hill over our city was the greeting from Patterson Klansmen to all citizens. The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan are here to assist all in need, especially women and children, regardless of race color or race and to stand four square behind the officers of the law in the fulfillment of their duties. The membership of the Ku Klux Klan consists of men who will not for one minute tolerate religious or race hatred and who trust they will have the support of all in their effort to promote the best interests of the city. Non sibil ad altis (not for self but for others). Patterson Klan, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Realm of New Jersey. But the Patterson Police Department feels that the matter of enforcing the law, is its own business and no one else's and is beginning a thorough investigation of the Klan's dramatic warning. It has sworn to, prosecute any act of lawlessness that may be perpetrated by the Klan regardless of motive. Pickens Receives Much Honor At Philadelphia. Special To The Argus PHILADELPHIA, Pa.

MAY POSTPONE THIRD TRIAL OF ARKANSAS MEN CHARGED WITH MURDER MAY POSTPONE THIRD TRIAL OF ARKANSAS MEN CHARGED WITH MURDER Six Elaine Colored Men Have Twice MARIANNA, Ark., April 27—The famous case of the six Elaine farmers who have been twice granted a reprieve—and who are making a noted fight for freedom, probably will not be heard at the present term of the Lee Circuit Court. The men are charged with the murder of W. A. Atkins of the Hoop Spur Schorhouse-September 30, 1919, which is alleged to have precipitated the Elane insurrection. The prosecuting attorney will recommend that the cases be passed until an appeal in other Elane cases now before the United States Supreme Court is acted upon, he said. Have Been Tried Twice Ed Ware, John Martin, Alf Barkes, Jr.; Will Wordlow, Albert Giles and Jos Fox, for whom dozens of social fraternal and welfare agencies and thousands of persons have asked cloency, have already faced trial two times for the crime charged against them, and each time the death penalty has been meted out by the jury. The first trial in Phillips county resulted in a conviction with the death sentence, but the cases were reversed upon an appeal to the Supreme Court, because the jury omitted the words "of murder in the first degree" in their verdict. Defense. Charges Prejudice The second trial, also in Phillips tion, and a second Veltizambr. ETAO county, resulted in another conviction, and a second appeal was taken, this time upon the grounds that the Circuit Court had erred in hearing testimony on a motion which had been filed by the defendant, to quash the jury venue because discrimination had been used in drawing the jury, no colored men having been summoned for jury service. The Supreme Court sustained the contention of the defendants' attorneys, and a charge of vengeance to Lee county was granted. MASS. LAWMAKERS PASS ANTI-LYNCHING RESOLVE MASS. LAWMAK ANTI-LYNCH DYER DEFENDS ANTI-MOB LAW Missouri Representative Delivers Address And Makes Strong Plea For Law And Order. CALLS FOR "SHOW DOWN" BY REPUBLICAN PARTY Tells People Of Bay State That They Have More Power Than Any Other Part Of The Country. By A. J. SMITHERMAN, Eastern Correspondent BOSTON, Mass.—The Unity House, one of the historical meeting places of this city, just off the Boston Common, was filled to full capacity Sunday afternoon to hear Congressman L. C. Dyer, of St. Louis, Mo., discuss the bill which he has been trying for several years to get through. Congress making the crime of lynching a federal offense, and which has passed the House of Representatives and is now pending before the Judiciary Committee of the Senate. The meeting was under the auspices of the Boston Chapter of the N. A. A. C. P., and was presided over by Morrison Storey of Boston, National President of the organization. James Weldon Johnson, National Secretary, also spoke. The man from Missouri while commending the admirable characteristics peculiar to our group did not fall to point out some of our shortcomings as viewed from the white man's standpoint. None of the latter, stood out more prominently, he said, than our promeness to personal envy and jealousy. This, he said, is a great hurt degree to the progress of the race as a whole. Discussing the Dyer Anti-lynching bill, he said, "This bill is passed by the Senate it will mean the beginning of the end not only of lynching, but of disfranchisement. Jim Crowism and all other injustices to Colored people in this country." Mr. Dyer said the final passage of the bill by the Senate is up to Senator Lodge and urged the colored people of Massachusetts to demand of him immediate favorable action. Speaking further he said: "Let Senator Lodge know," the Congressman appealed, "that the colored people of Massachusetts, men and women, are standing together for the protection of their race, which cannot protect itself; that you look to him for favorable consideration of the bill and that if nothing is done you will hold him responsible. "You have more power than any other section of the country in this great fight, because Senator" "Lodge, the leader of the Senate, like every other public official, must get the votes of the people." "The Senate has it in its power to pass the bill, and if the Senate does not pass it every Republican Senator that comes up for election this fall ought to be defeated. The Republican party is committed to such an anti-lynching measure by the platform adopted at Chicago, and its fate is in the hands of this Republican Senate. "The colored people in this State have enough votes to decide whether a Republican Senator shall be elected or not. Although I am a Republican, I would gladly vote for a Democrat if he were willing to help in this great cause." The audience, which completely filled the hall, was aroused to excited applause by the speaker's exhortations. Several hundred members were added to the Boston branch in addition to several hundred cash subscriptions ranging from $5 to $25.

Whereas, The public; record shows that approximately four thousand persons have been lynched by lawless mob in our republic in the last forty years; and Whereas, National repute among the nations of the world requires that an end be put to this practice of mob murder and lynching in the United States; and Whereas, Local and state laws and administration have even until now failed entirely to so much as curb materially these mob murders and lynchings; and Whereas, This practice ruthlessly deprives citizens of life and property without due process, and, unchecked, tends to undermine respect for law and the very foundations of government; therefore be it Resolved. That the general court of Massachusetts respectfully urges upon the United States senate and Its judiciary committee the speedy enactment of the Dyer antilynching bill, so-called, already passed by the house of representatives by an overwhelming majority, and designed to end lynching by making mob murder a crime against the federal government; and be it further Resolved.

The St. Louis Angus BREWERY 617.302.4000 FAX 617.302.4000 MIDLAND, OH PAGE FOUR THREE WINNING STAR ACTS- THE BOOKER WASHINGTON Three star acts of vandeville fill the bill nicely at the Booker Washington Theatre this week. While a tickle of excitement fills the show, there are continuous flashes of unusual talent and originality. The Roya, open the show slincing. This is followed with humorous puns and smart sayings, "The Bairnyard Rag" by the man, and "In Old Jap- ney" by the man, over good. A descriptive buck dance over the team is a lively climax. Ferguson and Rice are next on the bill. They open with an eccentric song and dance. A comic back by Mr. Ferguson, with original steps and antics, almost stops the show. After a winning song number by Miss Rice, which always gets an enchore, Ferguson again appears in "Timch-back" and shoes of exaggerated size, taking the house by storm. The team's closing piece, "Loving Sam From Abham," won three enchores Monday night. O'Bryant and O'Bryant, featuring soul stirring executions on the violin, sing the show. After a opening, a medley of syncopated choruses is played by Mr. O'Bryant. The female member scores a big hit singing "Counting Your Money That's All." O'Bryant then puts over his original interpretation of the blues, and as his instrument almost sings out the words, the house fairly goes wild. The closing vocal-instrumental duet goes big. VAUDEVILLE NEXT WEEK Another extraordinarily attractive vaudeville show has been booked for the Booker Washington Theatre next week.

Johnson is just as stone throw from being in the pink of condition and several weeks ago Mant Kinkle the fight promoter and one of the referees of battle between Johnson and Willard at Cuba remarked that he has never seen Jack in so good condition and that it is his opinion that Johnson is the only heavyweight in the ring today who can give Dempsey a run for his money. With a few months of hard training and road work Johnson, would be as hard, as a rock, he has never let himself become fat and soggle always doing a little training so that he could and will meet any man in the world today. Although it is a long time since Johnson indulged in a real battle, the big fellow has so much national ability that it is believed he still fetishes the form and smoothness of action which made him a real marvel and a champion of the world. A reception and dance will be given in honor of Jack Johnson, at Auxland Wednesday night. The former champion of the heavy weight prize ring will be present and meet his admirers in person. There is no doubt of a big crowd, for the man who beat Jeffries has thousands of followers in every city. The admission will be 50 cents plus 5 cents tax. Dancing will be free. Are you a throughbred?

"A Stage Romance," at the Lincoln Theater on Saturday. The Sunday feature at this theater will be "Penrod," with Wesley "Freekles" Barry, and Fredrick "Sunshine Sammy" Morrison. It is presented by Marshall Neilah. "Penrod," Mr Neilah pointed out, "is not merely the story of the country boy or the tale of the city boy, he is every boy. In creating the character of Penrod' Mr. Parkington has not, as so many others have done, portrayed a certain type, or class of boy. He has reached down into the fundamentals of every boy and has pictured characteristics that are immediately evident in all American youths. The story might have taken place in a large city or a small town. It will therefore be appreciated by those who have always lived in the city as well as those who have never left the country town. Everybody can enjoy it, men women and children. It tells a vivid story about a cabaret hostess who becomes enamored of a young "blue-blooded" millionaire and turns into tigerish, revenge seeking woman when outside interference threatens to take her lover from her.

Not that we believe others cannot fill the office, but Mr. Miller has made a good police official. Notwithstanding the fact that the newspapers and the politicians claimed he "talked too much," everybody knows that the real objection to Mr. Miller, was he stood for law and order and he refused to be "bossed" by the politicians or to let outsiders run the Police Department. That is the whole story in a nut shell. We do not believe that Governor Hyde made a mistake in selecting Mr. Miller as head of the Police Board. The only mistake the Governor made was to consent to Miller's removal. The talk of politicians saying that they want strong and fearless men, for offices is but a colossal joke. They do not want anything of the kind. All they want is men and women whom they can boss. Mr. Miller's worse enemies say he tried to do his duty, but what encouragement has he for doing his duty? His worse enemies will admit that he has made an efficient officer; is it unpopular to be efficient? We wonder what the crooks are saying among themselves? They will no doubt take fresh courage and find comfort in the thought that some of the power of Victor Miller has been taken from him. Those who are friends to law and order can but see danger in the removal of Mr. Miller as head of the Police Department because, if his successor undertakes to enforce the law, has opinions of his own and refuse to be bossed, he will in a short time become just as unpopular as Mr. Miller. For that reason, Mr. Brockman will be at a disadvantage in assuming the office. He will of necessity, in the face of conditions, have to either surrender to the bosses, grafters and crooks or incur the same displeasure as did his predecessor. Therefore, the situation brought about by a change in the official head of the Police Department looks much worse to those who would have a better City in which to live. Since the reorganization of the Police Board, the department will be watched by the public. They will expect to see the town "wide open," protected criminals, protected underworld, protected graft and many other evils spring up almost like the mushroom of the night. So we say, the new head of the Police Department will need a double-portion of Victor Miller's courage to meet and cope with the situation. Early next week an unusual gathering of men and women will assemble in our City in the Fifteenth Guardrennial Session of the General Conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church. On behalf of the people of St. Louis, the Argus extends a most cordial welcome to the General Officers, delegates and visitors who may be in attendance. We shall endeavor to make your stay happy and your sojourn among us one of continuous pleasure. We welcome you to our homes and that which we have, we share freely with you. We feel that we shall be the beneficiaries by your presence in our midst, by your council, intelligence, unselfishness and service. You shall have our prayers for His guidance in all your deliberations to the end that whatever is done may be to His honor and for the spreading of His kingdom on earth for the uphill of humanity. PUT THE KU KLUX OUT OF BUSINESS A costly experience has several states had, by indulging the Ku Klux Klan. Recent investigations, show that the real purpose of the "hooded satellites" is to over throw the regular constituted authorities of the law. Despite the strong denials on the part of those connected with the Klan, the state and national government are forging the chain of circumstances tighter and tighter about the activities of the Klan. The evidence gathered so far, is not misleading to the most simple mind. The acts of lawlessness committed in the name of the Klan are becoming bolder and more benign every day. The determined efforts on the part of some state officials to stamp out the activities, of the Klan will meet the general approval of all law abiding citizens. The best way to tell whether an individual or race is making progress, is to see if they are moving in the "same old rut." His pretty hard for a fellow to take a stand for the race, while keeping "self first."

And yet, there are thousands of people who seem so freely to ignore it. The most frequent and cutting charge against Negro laborers during the war was that they reported late and did not regard tardiness as an offense. Tradition largely accounts for this attitude. Have you ever thought how serious it would be if train engineers were to "take off" a few minutes here and there? Would there be any such thing as schedule? We could then just as well start to New York next week as today—we would arrive at the same time. In large industrial establishments the movements of whole shifts very often depend upon one man. Suppose he reports date—thousands of dollars will be lost to the company while the men stand late. This explains why the business man often appears "cold blooded." This is an electric age, and calls for time makers! Why not adopt the policy of making time before the appointed hour? It is just as easy. Being on time and late are merely habits. Either one or the other can be quickly acquired. Have you ever tried it? In the little town of Konigsburg, the famous German philosopher, Immanuel Kant, was known to pass certain places daily at an appointed time. It is said that the townpeople regulated their watches when he passed by. Of course, it is possible to erase in too strict adherence to time, but are we likely to do this? Emulating Kant in this respect will help many of us. The wheels of industry are just beginning to turn again. One enthusiast said that the next six months will not see an idle man in this country. We are all certain that every normal man will be able to find employment in the near future as attier to. Will not the time makers be selected first, and promoted first? The hand of time reaches out and touches every man and woman in every walk of life. You are an important being. But the other man is also. Be a time master. It says.

Zion Church, Sunday April 24 at the 11 o'clock service. They were greatly inspired by the beautiful interesting sermon of the Rev. A. L. Wilson, who outlined how important it was for the Christian to obey the Heavenly vision. After the sermon, Mr. Rochester in a few words cleverly showed the relation between the sermon and the practices of a person's everyday life, after which he introduced Mr. Harry Anderson, Superintendent of the St. Louis District of the Donglass Life Insurance Co. Mr. Anderson, in a strong forceful talk illustrated to the congregation how they could better the condition of themselves and also their children, by supporting their own institutions. Also, that in performing such service for their race, they were doing a Christian service because of the fact that by improving the conditions of their own they were making the world a better place for all. He particularly emphasized the importance of supporting a financial institution such as the Donglass Life Insurance Co., and requested all those present who might be interested to pledge themselves to its support and for this purpose cards were passed to the congregation to enable those interested to pledge their support. A good number were returned signed. This live wire bunch of young nep wish to think the public for their assistance in bringing about the success of the Company's campaign for a $200,000 weekly debt by September 1. The Association will be the guest of Pleasant Green Baptist Church, Sunday April 30 at 11:41 check service. JUDGE HARRISON COMING PETER H.

A. E. This is to announce that Mr. J. W. Spann of 1421 West Belle Place accepted a contract as special representative of Illinois and Michigan for Liberty Life Insurance Co. of Chicago on the 29th day of March, 1922 and is now blazing the trail in Illinois as earnestly and conscientiously as he did when he was representing the Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, Ga. This company he served for four strenuous years. Often he was advised to give up, quit to other fields, that probably beckoned him at the one of advice. But the only reply each time was "No life must give up, this kind of work. Insurance is our savior in many ways." So he continued to plod away until finally one day another flower blossomed in the old private state with headquarters located in the bosom of the windy city, Chicago, Ill. This flower, The Liberty Life Insurance Co. stretched forth its young, but strong arms to those who are deserving Mr. Shann, hearing the call, answered and today can be found in Illinois serving his race in one of the best ways. He is now in Alton, Ill. at the residence of Dr. G. L. Saunders, 1928 Marillin, Ave. Army Rubber Hip Boots, Rain Coats, Army Hats and Caps, Army Goods Store, 2201 Franklin Avenue.

CHICAGO NEWS ITEMS Morgan Park, the beautiful suburb of the city, was the scene of many people from the city. Rhine Island, Chicago Heights and Robbin, IL, who witted the corner stone laying of Arnett Chapel. Sunday was such a beautiful day, it afforded the visitors an opportunity to see the many beautiful homes being erected by members of the race. The principal address on this occasion was delivered by Bishop Carey. Among others were Henry Ray of Harvey; Gentlemen A.D. Brown, M. T. Bailey of the Bailey Realty Co. of Chicago. Mrs. Jeanie, Martin, 358 S. State Street passed away on Monday after noon at six o'clock at her residence. Mrs. Martin was a member of The Trustee Board of The Sisters of Bethany. Hon Wm. Herbert Fields. of St. Louis, Mo. national grand master of A. U. K. and D. of A. who has been in the cast on important matters, arrived in the city during the week from New York where he was delayed on important business matters. Hon. Fields was unable to be present at the great military display given on Monday evening at the Eighth Regiment Armory under the auspices of the First Regiment of Illinois of A.U. K. and D. of A. of which Col. J. Wesley Hall is colonel. The affair was a brilliant one and will be long remembered by all present. Rev. T. L. Scott, pastor of Grants' A. M. E. Chapel, 4600 Evans Ave., has just returned [from Nashville, Tennessee where he conducted one of the most successful revivals held in the history of that city. Rev. Scott is in great demand in and out of the city and has been spoken of as being in a class by himself as an evangelist. Mr. and Mrs. William Kearney have moved into their future home on 112th Place and Racine Avenue. Morgan Park and are much pleased with the building. The Kearneys purchased lots last summer through the Bailey Realty Co., 3628 S. State St. The General Committee of U. B. F. and S. M.

Charles Satchell Morris, Jr., well known on the platform and possibly the foremost orator of his race, left the city the first of the week for Munke, Int., where he delivered an address at Campbell Auditorium. Morris is a native of Norfolk, Va., and is connected with the Virginia Society of Chicago of which M. T. Bailey is president. The Periscope Associated Negro Press IS THE NEGRO BETTER OFF IN THE SOUTH By J. Milton Sampson Nice neat columns of figures don't mean anything at the average person for the reason that there seems to be no life in them. It is only when somebody pulls the string and they begin to perform their astounding feats that one realizes that after all they may be worth while. The figures on illiteracy and connected subjects particularly fall under this classification. So long as they are opposite their accounted states or clubs they serve esting results are found even through nothing that is really new to the careful reader may be discovered. Not a single northern or western state is among the ten states having the highest literacy rate and not a single southern state, as the term is ordinarily used, is among the twenty having the lowest rate. If inquiry is pushed still further and applied to the Negro the same result will follow, not a southern state is among the twenty having the lowest rate, not a northern or western state among the ten having the highest. A careless student might after all conclude that there is something peculiarly unfortunate in southern atmosphere and something peculiarly fortunate in the northern and western. According to an article prepared by the Research Department of the Chicago Urban League, Iowa has the lowest general illiteracy rate of all the states (1. L. per cent) and New York has the lowest rate for Negroes (2.9 per cent) while Louisiana has the distinction of having both the highest general rate (21.9 per cent) and the highest Negro rate (38.5). Some people may be surprised to find that in New York, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, there is a lower illiteracy rate among Negroes than the general average and that in Connecticut the rate is the same for both the general population and the Negro. But in the ten states having the highest illiteracy rate, each has at least one out of every five Negroes illiterate and one out of every ten in the general population. The next most natural thing is to consider then would be the efforts made by these states to look after the education of their citizens. Here again the South is true to form. In many neighborhoods there are not enough seats to accommodate the pupils even on halftime. The school terms range from less than 4 months in the year up to the customary 9 months or more and an effort to find out the number of children in school reveals the fact that there is not a single one of the 10 southern states having the highest illiteracy rate that has as many as 90 per cent of its children between the ages of 7 and 12 attending school. Confining the discussion from now on to the ten states referred to, Louisiana again shines with the lowest percentage of school attendance (75.9 per cent) - South Carolina has the highest (87.1 per cent). Stated otherwise 1 out of every 10 children is out of school for one reason or another. The thought may arise that the main reason so many children are out of school is the absence of campusiliary education laws. However, each of the states mentioned has a compulsory educational law such as it is. It is in the administration of this law that the southern educational machinery falls down even if the terms are such that it might be effective. For instance, Tennessee has a law requiring all children between the ages of 7 and 16 to attend school for the full term unless they have completed an elementary course. The same thing is substantially true of North Carolina; but a closer examination of the laws in these ten states of highest literacy will reveal many methods and schemes which furnish loop holes to the parent or child by which necessary education may be neglected. Three of them, Arkansas, Florida and Louisiana recognize poverty as a reason for excusing school attendance. Florida and South Carolina will excuse its children if they live too far from school to go conveniently. Alabama compels its children to go to school unless they are legally employed; Mississippi, unless they have a physical or mental deficiency. Georgia passes a law requiring school attendance but in the same law directs the board of education shall take into consideration the need of agricultural labor in certain sections. Mississippi passes a compulsory education law which like the local option scheme in prohibition, allows various localities or districts to reject the law in case it is not acceptable to them. Another way in which the effect of the compulsory law is lessened is by requiring attendance at school during only a part of the school term, as far instance, in Arkansas where attendance is required three fourths of the term. Virginia is satisfied with 16 weeks, Georgia with 6 months, Mississippi with 80 days. In many ways, therefore, the circumstances existing in southern states make litterary percentage inevitably high. Apart from, and beyond legal enactments and regulations concerning education the sentiment of the people is opposed to the highest educational ideals. The old principle works out! He who has least while needing most, wants least, Georgia, Virginia and Mississippi furnish recent outstanding incidents which show the temper of the people. The Big Question A labor organization has recently memorialized the Atlanta. Georgia Board of Education to condemn the use of a book which discussed slavery in a way distasteful to them. In Virginia a bill was recently under consideration to strengthen the compulsory educational law and Virginia refused to pass it because its terms would include so many Negroes within its jurisdiction. Mississippi with one out of every five adult citizens unable to write, killed a bill which provided a school for illiterates, for the same reason. The question, "Is the Negro better off in the South?" finds part of its answer in the facts above given. The figures enable one to measure and compare conditions in the South and the North with respect to one very important phase of life. As long as conditions persist in the South, which permit from one fourth to one third of its citizens or any class of them to remit ignorant, even though they are poor, just so long will the South as a whole suffer and not alone the unfortunate human beings toward whom prejudice has been directed. An ignorant citizen, white or black, is worth less to the community than an intelligent one; an ignorant citizen, white or black, is more dangerous than an intelligent one. $12.50 bays Guarantee Option on 10,000 bushels of wheat or corn.

LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, APRIL 28, 1922 When Black Meets White By John Louis Hill For Associated Negro Press MISTAKES OF NORTH AND SOUTH 5th Installment However, to their very great credit eliciting steadfastly to a conviction hosts of Colored people have been eminently successful in the North. By sheer ability and tenacity they have overcome all obstacles and in every walk of life have made names and attained positions creditable to any race anywhere. But this success is due, not to the fact that the South has held them inferior or the North "equal" to the white man, but because they have been able to demonstrate by character and mentality their ability to attain and their fitness to hold eminent positions. And despite his social status, the Negro has attained quite as high degree of intellectual achievement in the South as he has in the earth. 'His great colleges, Universities, and other splendid institutions in the South beat out the satement. We must, however, give credit to Northern initiative in making possible this intellectual success in the South. The North has been wrong in asuming that it as a section of the country is more competent and better fitted to solve the race problem than is the south. The North has had opportunity to demonstrate its ability in this direction and has failed. The North has not been altogether sincere with the Negro. The Negro accepted the Norths' overtures at full face value, came here to make good, and after having made sufficient success to enable him to take his place among property owners, the North promptly began to throw bombs under his house and to demand segregation of all his kind. When the Negro's presence began to interfere with the business and to depreciate property values of the Northern white, the Negro at once became persona non grata. The race problem is not sectional and both the North and South greatly err in so regarding it. The Souths kindly feeling toward the Negro is genuine, and it only needs to dispose itself of an erroneous sentiment relative to the colored people's being intended for a lowly position in life. This wrought in the mind of the South, the Colored race will advance in that clause as nowhere else on earth. The North must make good its long held position of generous attitude toward the Negro and must not discriminate against him as it has recently so often done. When both sections of our country adjust their false attitudes toward the Colored race, the last vestige of the old sectional feeling will have been destroyed and the race question will be a national and not a sectional issue. Then it will naturally and easily work out its own solution. Then the Negro will hold his place in the complexity of racial strains and unembarrassed by racial prejudices, his previous advancement will be as nethings when compared with his future achievements. The most serious and difficult phase of the race problem relative to the Negro lies not with the Negro himself but with the white people both North and South, who, hectofofog, as a rule have not considered their own erroneous positions a barrier in the way of its quick solution. "SOCIAL EQUALITY" (Chapter IV. Sixth Installment) By "social equality" between the white and black races is generally meant a meeting, of the two races upon the same social level, a gracious extension and cordial perception toward from each other of the amenities of social intercourse. This means visiting with and entertainments of each other. Social equality of these races means for both colors to sit together around the same festive board. Against this idea the South has always rebelled and with most people in the North if has been but a theory practiced comparatively few. As stated in the previous chapter, this question has no legitimate place in the adjustment of racial disagreements because color has nothing to do with character. Only two things of right should determine social equality or inequality, viz. character and intellect. In nothing are there so many strata and gradations as in the make-up of the world's social life. No other word has a more varied significance than the word "society". Primarily, it means the entire human family in its associate and interrelated contact. In its narrowest and most despicable sense it refers to the "upper crust" the aristocracy of gold the "400" There are as many gradations of society as there are levels upon which people meet in mutuality pleasant intercourse. There is social inequality between a cultivated man an uncoathliger man. There is social inequality between a man of high moral character and a libertine; between a pure woman and a courtesan; between honest man and a thief; a gentleman and a robber. None of these differences are made by the color of one's skin. All we know many Colored people with whom we would prefer to associate in any capacity, than with some white people we know. And, there are Colored people so low that self-respecting persons of the same race would not think of receiving and entertaining them on an equal social basis. From every angle, all of the argument is against the idea of color having anything to do with social condition. But upon the subject of equality great harm was done to the Colored people of the South immediately after the civil war, when for selfish purposes unscrupulous men instilled into the minds of the Negroes the idea that because they were once slaves and had been set free, they were in every way the equals of the white people, and that all they had to do was to assert themselves, and enjoy all the rights of equality. The idea was that without any self-development without any mental growth or individual refinement beyond that already attained, they were to be permitted to enter the homes of the white people as equals, marry the white women of the south and north and do many other things too radicalous to be mentioned. Today, no sensible man or woman of either race would for a moment tolerate such an iden. Through a half century of strug that his social position, like that of every man, must be attained—that he must him his spurs before he can wear them. And while the Negro has been learning this truth the white race is learning that when the Negro has merited social recognition, it must not in a free country—cannot, be denied' him. We must go still further, by gladly co-operating with him, in every way encouraging him, and welcoming him to the highest social standing he may justly earn. "PAGEANT OF PROGRESS" CHICAGO JUL. 29-AUG. 14 Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill., April 19—"On to Chicago 100,000 strong" That is the slogan going out from the Windy City to the Colored people of the Nation. The occasion is the 2nd annual event of the mammoth "Pageant of Progress," an affair of education, entertainment, backed by the entire city of Chicago; which brought more than 1,000,000 people to the second city of the national last year. Sponsored by the Associated Negro Press, the Chicago Business League and kindred organizations, the Colored people have begun with a whirl to make it known throughout the nation that the two weeks from July 29 to August 14, the hand of welcome will be extended on all sides, and hospitality, as only Chicago can dispense it, will prevail everywhere. So extensive is the program going to be that only a summary of it can be announced at present. The great Pargount of Progress if held on Chicago's 10,000,000 Municipal Pier. There are not only exhibits of all Chicago products, from hairpins to skiv scrapers, and from tooth picks to automobiles, but there are special exhibits and outside attractions. Beginning shortly, the various districts of the city will have celebrations leading up to the crowning of their district queen. From all of the various queens, the "Queen of the Pagcant" is selected, and her cormation is one of the big events of the occasion. There is a mumoth street parade on the first day in which all of the various queens ride, pald homage supreme by the neighbors of her district. This parade last year is said to have excelled in spectacular beauty the famous Madi Gras Parades of New Dutting the entire period of the Pagcant, the city from "Stem to Stearn" is decorated in holiday attire. In connection with the big events at the Municipal Pier, there will be special events daily on the South Side, every thing from athletic events to hair rising feats of flying machines. Orleans The entire South Side will have extraordinary decorations. The committee will be selected with special ability to perform their duties. There will be two out standing committees one to invite all persons who have formerly lived in Chicago to "come home" during the Pageant, and the other to invite all of those who do not live in Chicago but who have "friends living there" to visit the "Top of the World" during the Pageant The enthusiasm which the business men have entered into the spirit of the occasion means great success. As Frank L. Gillespie, President of Chicago Business League stated: "Not only do we desire to show the Colored people what we as a race have accomplished in Chicago, but we desire to inform the whites as well; and then he continued, "we wish to have the people of the U. S. fully informed how we do these big things and live together in peace and good will. If it can be done in Chicago it can be done elsewhere." That. 100,000 Colorado people will visit the city during the pageant is predicted by all those familiar with the plans. HOWARD U. PROFESSOR GRANTED $2,000 ANNUAL STIPEND BY CHICAGO U. HOWARD U.

The rolling of the three leaguers was almost identical in every detail. Wilson breezing by batsman Barton and Force breezing by pitcher for the innings the Almons were retired in one, two three orders, and would have continued in that groove but for a wild tag by second sacker. Thomas in the skittish which a runner to advance as far as second base, and that was as far as any runner of the opposition managed to force along the circuit. Barry in right and Johnson in left captured about and dug dragon drives through the water while short shot. Riggs skidded about and short shot hits into put outs. Petra's charges showed a world of bows tabbing the base path; the bows tabbing a brace of stolen bases, Wesley, Force, and Smith rapped the sphere for extra bases while Thomas shinned out a clean home run inside the lot doing the circuit with time to spate. Pitcher Kenndra managed to keep the ten hits THE NEW YORK TIMES acquired by the Stars will scaffold and managed to hold the Catered keys to obey them from the first to the seventh in an era, a double and a simple, and a special method the Stars have marked. Thomas art his long thrive in the eight with one on the path. From a standpoint of skill, both show and handling the above of the dwarf the Stars look to have the majority of the league clubs to die to the Stars.

Ben Taylor and his 1922 entry who will hang the Heagler Capital colors this season, accompanied by the club secretary E. J. Butler and A. D. Williams, secretary of the National Sport Writers Association, inaded Terre Haume Sunday, April 23, and combated the local Three I League club. Taylor carried 15 men short to say that the job was well done and it was Warner Care and Macker start. Warner Care was taken out in the fourth to allow Jeffries, the veteran south-paw a chance to "stunt his stuff," which he did. Jeff told until the sixth and gave way to Ross, a newcomer who wished to try his curves against the beaglers. For three innings it looked as if the clubs were in for pitching battle, but in the fourth manager Ben found the opposing moundmen for a long, wicked drive which netted his two bogs. After this it was all the A's. In the 7th frams Tatler samin felt with a double, followed by bats from his mates which netted four taller, enough to ice the game. The fielding of the team as a whole was all that could be asked of any club and those who were in the game feel that at least the Day Clark and Blackman in the infield caused much favorable comment, while in the 'outfield' Christian, Washington and Holloway proved a veritable stone wall defense.

LONDON, Eng. April 19 - The Gold Coast Colony of West Africa has been invaded by pirates, a step of finding oil. Louis P. Bowyer, mining contractor of London has made a thorough investigation of the oil prospects in West Africa and believes that pools and possibility of oil will be found in the eastern area. He says that a "well-known" oil camp is already on the ground making a serious test of the fund. Oil has been struck thirty three feet under the ground. Mr. Bowler, according to the New York Times says that the development of oil in West Africa, although only one of this country's unscrupulous potentialities, will have a far-reaching effect in its industrial expansion. West Africa is the nearest colonial possession to England. It is a neglected asset which if taken seriously in hand would quickly reshape our dwindling export trade and would become one of the greatest purchasing resources of British manufactured goods.
