FIFTEEN YEAR OLD COLORED BOY BURNED AT STAKE IN GA. PINCHOT SAYS THAT HE BELIEVES WITH ROOSEVELT Pennsylvania Nominee For Governor Declares Colored People Should Be Accounted All The Political And Civil Rights Enjoyed By Others. PHILADELPHIA, May 18. A steady increase in his lead over Attorney General George E. Alter for the Republican nomination for the governorship of Pennsylvania was maintained today by Governor Phloxet, former State Forester, who was prominent in the Progressive party movements in 1912 and 1914. Phloxet jumped into the lead early last night when about 7000 of the 7034 districts in the State had reported their unofficial returns from Tuesday's primary and nearly every additional district heard from during the night increased his majority. Pinchot obtained his lead from districts outside of Philadelphia and Allegheny County, in which it Pittsburgh, and as most of the missing districts are in sections where Pinchot showed the greatest strength, his advantage is expected to grow as more returns are received. **Declares For Negroes** Associated Negro Press PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 17—When asked what his attitude toward Colored people was, Gifford Pinchot, candidate for governor stated: "It has been asked what is my attitude toward the colored people of Pennsylvania. It goes without saying that they should be accorded all the political and civil rights that other citizens enjoy. I believe with Rossevelt that 'the door of hope should not be closed to any man on account of his color,' and I believe with hing in 'all men up,' and no man down." As governor I will earnestly strive to give the consideration and a Roosevelt square deal to every man, woman and child in the State. "Finally, I assure you that I will make no promise to the colored people of Pennsylvania which I will not perform." SUPREME COURT RULES OUT RE-DISTRICTING IN CITY OF ST. LOUIS SUPREME COURT RULES OUT RE-DISTRICTING IN CITY OF ST. LOUIS Decision Effects Election Of Justices Of Peace And Constables The Supreme Court of Missouri rules that the redistricting in the City of St. Louis, as advised by the Governor and passed by the 51st General Assembly is unconstitutional so far as Justices of Peace Districts are concerned. It has been understood generally that the redistricting plan as adopted would change the character somewhat of candidates for office, but since the old districts have been confirmed by the Supreme Court we may proceed as heretofore to choose offices and file as per old custom. The reason for such a reversal seems to be that the bill finally comprehended more than was intended in that it took into account the districts of Constables as well as Justices of Peace. HOUSE VOTES TO LOAN $5,000,000 TO LIBERIA HOUSE VOTES TO LOAN $5,000,000 TO LIBERIA Associated - Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C., May 17— In the House the full power of the Harding administration was brought to bear to carry out an obligation of the Wilson regime. The issue was the loan of $5,000,000 to Liberia. A joint resolution to reauthorize the credit, provoked one of the sharpest party clashes in the house in years. The Democrats violently signed; they demanded to reimburse international bankers for Liberian securities. Then Republican leaders mercilessly wielded the party bash, but even then the proposition was too much for on their side went over to the Democ- rats. Many others declined to vote. The bill was finally passed, 149 to 139. The resolution now goes to the Senate. Leading the opposition, Representative Garner of Texas said: "This is the first time in history that the bankers have come up and said they have strong enough to demand that you do their blinding. He read from the record of the hear- lines on the resolution that J. P. Morgan & Co., John Loeb & Co., the National City Bank, all of New York, fur- nished $1,600,000 to refund Liberia's indebtedness in 1912. EDUCATIONAL NIGHT AT ST.

Marcus Garvey, president, Universal Neiro Improvement Association told in eloquent language, what he expected his organization to do for the darker races of the world. He began by saying he was on a nation-wide tour, and that was the reason he had found opportunity to return to St. Louis in so short a time. "I bring you greetings," said the speaker "and words of cheer because the cloak which we wore over us in the past are passing away," what will satisfy us. We are in this fight and negotiation for peace is almost ready to be offered us; but nothing less than freedom of all the Negroes of the world will satisfy us." The speakers words were usually met with wild applause throughout his discourse. Mr. Garvey urged the local members to work hard and enlist new members, so when St. Louis division reports at the general meeting at New York in August, it will be 5000 strong. The local branch at present is reported as having 2500 members. The speaker was introduced by Garland Winston, who characterized him as the greatest living man in the world. Mrs. Venerable, Lady President of the local organization presided. NEAR RIOT IN CHICAGO CHICAGO, IL. May 17-35th Forest Avenue, near the Eighth Regiment Armory, was the scene of a near riot Wednesday night. A Greek, who operated a pretentious restaurant called the American there, got into an altercation with Joseph Wiles, a colored customer, about payment for a meal. After an exchange of words, he went behind the counter, secured a pistol, pushed the customer into the street, and left him groveling in his death scene. A mob of colored men collected quickly, demolished his place and it was with difficulty that the police rescued him and got him to the station.

MEMBERS OF THE KU KLUX KLAN BARRED BY MASONS IN CALIFORNIA Order Sent Out Asserts Klan Tenes Are Inimitable To True Ameri- cals SAN-FRANCISCO, Cal., May 17—A letter discontinuing admittance of members of the Ku Klux Klan to the Masonic order was ordered sent to all members of the order in California and the Hawaiian islands today by Dr. Samuel E. Burke, Grand Master of the California jurisdiction of the order. The letter asserts Klan tenets are imminent to true Amerikanism and Masonry. The letter says the Klan pretends that its chief purpose is to aid in enforcement of the law, but its practical works appear to be to interfere with the orderly and lawful administration of the processes of our courts and the officers of the law. The letter continues: "It seeks by secret methods to rectify what its leading members conceive to be improper conduct on the part of people not members of the Klan, and to judge and condemn and execute its mandates by the dictum of a sheeted and hooded klansman. "Masons are bound openly and avowed to sustain the only constituted administrators of the law of the land and to disunfluence mph activities. Respect for law is enjoined upon our initiates as the first lesson in Masonry. "It has been charged that members of our fraternity have in some instances been allied with this Ku Klux Klan. The Grand Master does not believe such stories to be true. "And he will hold all of our honorable fraternity to a strict accountability for any usurpation of the law of the land." The fellow who is always kicking up a lot of dust ends by being kicked out. Published In The Interest Of Colored People SCOTT GIVES UP SECRETARYSHIP OF BUS. LEAGUE Tells President Moton His Duties At Howard Call For All His Mental And Physical Resources. Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. May 17, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary of the National Negro Business League since its formation by Booker T. Washington, and one of the virile forces of the organization, has resigned after twenty-one years of continuous service. In his letter of resignation addressed to Dr. Robert R. Motin, President and Bishop R. E. Jones, chairman of the Executive Committee, Dr. Scott says: I will be in position to the conclusion that the duties and responsibilities which now press upon me, require that I give up some of the activities which in the past have challenged my enthusiasm and support. It is for that reason, I am writing now, so that the work of the league may be unhindered and that you gentlemen representing the National organization may know that I shall not be in position to do during the coming year. I will be in position to give a same amount of work I have carried out the past in the interest of the League. The commanding place that Howard University is now taking in the University world is calling for all of my mental and physical resources. We are attempting to lay broad foundations for this National University of the Colored people of America, and I must give up some of my present activities. Therefore requesting that the Executive Committee accept my resignation as Secretary of the League to take effect at once. In severing my relatives as an officer of the Business League, I wish to convey to you and through you to the organization itself, my sincere thanks for the fine opportunities which have been presented for me to co-operate with some of the most enterprising of our forward looking men and women. I have not given up my thought that the program outlined at St. Louis before the National Business League 1914 was workable one, but unable to work out that program with the meager finances of the Business League. It seems to me that it will ultimately be necessary for an organization along business lines to effectively put over this program, and I shall be interested in such a program. I shall always be interested in the Business League and its work, and only regret that the cares and responsibilities I am shouldering prevent me from being actively connected with the organization in the future as in the past. Last August at Atlanta, I very much appreciated at the end of my twenty-one years of service as an officer of the National Negro Business League, my unanimous re-election, bp suspension of the rules as Secretary of the organization. I shall always treasure the institution of the National organization. Dr. Scott's retirement comes as a shock to the business interests of the country. He has been efficiently active for so long that his connection with the League seemed a certainty upon which to build. Considerable interest and speculation is aroused by the question "who will succeed him." Over one hundred members of seven neighborhood clubs under the direction of Mrs. Uxenia Scott Llylington, Neighborhood Secretary of the Urbain League, will give a special program at the St. Paul A. M. E. Church, corner Loftingwell, and Pine, Sunday night, May 21, at 8:00 o'clock. The entire service will be devoted to these exercises, the Rev. C. A. Williams, pastor, having decided to have this program rendered in full. Among the features will be demonstrations on positive health, including ventilation, open air, food and regular habits. Mr. J. C. L. Usher of the Urban League Board will preside. Mr. J. R. E. Lee, Extension Secretary, National Urban League, New York City, will deliver a address, Mr. C. M. Hubbard, General Manager of the Provident Association, and Miss Sera Young of the Probation Court, will be among the two-minute speakers. Mrs. J. L. Caston, Mrs. Laurie Smith, Mrs. Luu Taylor, Miles Lillie Mace Aston, Mrs. Byrdie Smith, Miss Bernice Callier and Miss Bernice O'Neal are among the club presidents whose members will take part in the exercises.

The Colored Workers Have Shown Ability And Will Be Used Wherever They Make Good. 15,000 Men To Be Employed. Associated Negro Press GARY, Indiana, May 17—The question whether colored labor from the South is adaptable to northern industrial uses, appears to have been settled by the results obtained here. News of the erection of a new tube mill, which when completed will employ 15,000 men is followed by the understanding that colored laborers, both skilled and unskilled will be used wherever they make good. Gary whose growth in the last ten years has been the wonder of the country is pure and simply an industrial city, and has given an unusual opportunity for measuring the capacity of the colored worker. The steel mills and tin plate works, and the many other mammoth plants are the reasons for Gary's being. This city of 63,000 or 70,000 people are colored in a existence for the purpose of employing labor to these giant manufactures, and of attending to the needs of colored labor and its big chance during the war when labor was scarce and later when immigration was cut off, reducing the regular labor supply. Steel officials say the colored worker has shown ability. Their only complaint has been the lack of speediness. Many of the men who first flocked to Gary are the careless floaters who flood any city when there is a chance to work, spend a few weeks to get a stake and then move on. Later a more substantial group came who bought homes, brought their families to permanent renters in schools here, and the finest in the country, mixed as to race but with colored teachers as well as white. There is a large number of colored professional and business men. The Mid-City, Bank, through its subsistence the Mid-City Realty Co. and Mid-City Building & Loan, own large tracts of property here and have specialized in modern home building. It is said a big proportion of their homes have been built for the colored residents and their information bureau reports that they have achieved such much success that they play a major role in efforts in connection with the large influx of people who are expected to size the opportunity to locate here because of the great demand for labor with the coming of the need for 15,000 men to man the tube mills. HOUSTON EDITOR IS BEATEN BY POLICE Associated Negro Press HOUSTON, Texas, May 17—Houston is boiling with rage—because of the dastardly attack made by a police officer last week upon Editor C. F. Richardson, Jr. of the "Houston Informer, during which the editor was brutally beaten over the head with a pistol and a "billy" without giving any cause for the assault. Mr. Richardson, who had taken his wife to a moving picture show at the Lincoln Theater, was driving into the San Felix street garage where he kept his car, when an auto shot by at high speed and a voice called out "Hey!" As the editor is one of Houston's best known men he assumed It was some acquaintance and paid no attention, after he had driven into the garage, a man in civilian clothes dashed into the place with a revolver drawn, swearing and shouting vile epithets despite the presence of Mrs. Richardson and a submit to arrest and with his companion officer bundled him in his car and drove him with his wife to the police station where the officer, surrounded by a group of other officers, was driving Richardson, even while he was being examined by the lifenturer in command. The charge preferred, which was greeted with jeers and laughter by the crowd in the police headquarterers was, "This smart nigger was driving with his tail light out, one head light out, resisted arrest and talked to me like I was a G—D Nigger." Mrs. Richardson was roughly handled and wiped the blood flowing down her husband's face after he had been struck from behind by the policemen. Editor Richardson has a reputation as one of the ablest and most fearless editors of the country. His paper and pen have been both bold and brave in his exposition of the wrongs perpetrated in Houston and the South. His courage has won him widespread adulation, and he has been the one who felt that the attack on him was perhaps engineered because of his upstanding attitude. As soon as Mr. Richardson was released he reported the affair to Mayor Holcombe who has claimed to be a square deal mayor. Thus far there have been no results. "ETHICAN"—An American citizen of the United States of Ethiopian descent; commonly though incorrectly, called "Negro," being a combination of "Eth." the first syllable in Ethiopia, and "ican." the last syllable in American. J. B. In keeping with their progressive policy, the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Chicago, Illinois, is now laying plans to enter the company in Missouri, under the laws of this state. Frank L. Gillespie, the President of the company is in St. Louis, looking after the arrangements. The Liberty Life is an Old Line Legal Reserve, and the first to be organized, owned and controlled by colored people in the northern states. Mr. Gillespie has been in the insurance business for more than seven years, and was at one time a member of the Board of Directors of the Public Life Insurance Company, one of the large white companies in Illinois, with a capital stock of $500,000, and seeing the broad field for insurance, Mr. Gillespie resigned his position, and organized the Liberty Life. During the short period of eight months that the Liberty Life has been actually writing business, it has the distinction of having, written more than a million dollars worth of insurance. Mr. Gillespie has just returned from a five week trip through the southern states, visiting Tuskegee and other cities where Negroes are making wonderful progress in air lines. When asked in regards to the Negro in the insurance business he replied, the first group of Negro millionaires will be developed but of the life insurance business; for example, look at the gigantic financial institutions that the Negroes have built in the South, namely North Carolina Mutual, Standard and Mississippi Life. These companies represent millions of dollars worth of business. We Negroes of the North have demonstrated our ability to create and manage large financial institutions, Liberty Life is but a beginning, with several such companies controlled by our people in the northern states we will have Negro banks, trust companies, investment companies with the same kind of financial backing that the Negroes are receiving in the South. Various other kind of business will follow. We will have financial institutions to encourage and aid him to develop business, thereby making places for the young men and women that are working in the universities are turning out every year. I believe Missouri is one of the most fertile fields in America today for the development of Negro business enterprises of all kinds, and the officers of Liberty Life are determined to lend financial aid to our group here in Missouri. St. Louis and Kansas City have some of the most substantial professional and business men that can be found in this country. The offices of the Liberty Life in St. Louis are in keeping with the position of the company first-class in every respect. To all, Commanderies, Knights Templar, you are hereby notified to meet at Monacle Hall, Sunday, May 11, at 12 noon, in the Orphan Home celebration.

IS AFTER NEGROES' VOTES OKLAHOMA DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR GOV. IS AFTER NEGROES' VOTES Associated Negro Press BOLEY: Okla. May 17—The talk of the street here every day is R. H. Wilson, Democrat, for Governor. Almost everybody that you meet on the street is wearing one of the Wilson souvenir pictures, which the Wilson campaign committee has shipped in huge lots all over the state. The cause of the unprecedented boom of R. H. Wilson for governor in the Negro metropolis develops out of a well-founded rumor that has been set afloat by Wilson leutenants, that a state agricultural school will be in action in the years to come. Interest is also received in the old field at Langton University. Rumor has it that promises have been made in the event Wilson wins, a change will come in the head of the Negro state institution, which has is recent years seen the scene of much turndoll and strife.

S. Hart in '3 WORD BRAND' Also Sunshine Comedy "THE LAUGHING GAS" And 7th Episode of "THE GREAT REWARD" An excellent program, which mixes with musical and dance art, is on tap at the Booker Washington Theater this week. Allie Johnson, a slack wire performer, is the curtain raiser. As a diversion he is garbed in the imitation of a monkey and adds comedy to his difficult feats. His work on the wire can be creditably compared with the best in vaudeville. Harry Kimball holds the stage alone in a spasm of eccentricity which includes dancing, humorous narratives and burlesque. His miedley monologue and travesty on slack wire walking are comical features. White and Mickey have a lively act which carries a lot of fun mixed with good singing. "Bubber" has a ticklish line of talk and puts over his hard luck letter to "Sam" with screaming effect. Miss Mickey scores with "Oh, Daddy." The team closes strong with "Alabama Glide." The Mitchell-Rector Trio closes the bill. This combination of female talent is a winner. The girls get into the tavor of the audience at once with their sweet vocal harmony. Thet the audience, is carried delightfully through suspension on the piano, artistic duo dancing, buck dancing and several song numbers. Miss Price presides at the piano and the song and dance numbers are presented, by Misses Mitchell and Rector. The act goes over big and is a real treat for the patrons. ARTHUR ALLEN; THE FOOL AND HIS FIDDLE, AT BOOKER WASHINGTON NEXT WEEK Another good bill has been booked for the Booker Washington Theater next week. One of the vaudeville features will be Allen and Stokes. The Fool and His Fiddle and His Lady Fair, featuring Arthur Allen, who is a big favorite here. Other acts will be: Blinnes and Brown, Barber and Patterson, and Ida Cox, a talented soubrette. The entire show is composed of real talent and should go over big. **Pay Day** Monday, as usual, will be "Pay Day" for the painsons. Everyone who enters the theatre on Monday nights receives a pay envelope. It contains some sum of money from 1 cent to $5, or trading stamps from 10 cents to $40, or passes to the theater or Jazzland.

Midnight Ramble At The Booker Washington Theatre Professional Talent to be Assembled in Massive Entertainment on Thursday Night, May 25 Thursday Night. May 25 A Midnight Ramble will be given at the Booker, Washington Theater next Thursday night. May 25 The affair will assemble all the resident and traveling professional talent in this locality and will present the biggest and longest show ever given in this city. The curtain will be raised at 12 midnight, and the manager refuses to state how long the show will last for fear that "some folks may not want to stay out so late." So it looks like a big, long entertainment, and when one pleases they may leave but it's safe to guess that the program as arranged will "Hold. You For a While." - Among the features will be a "Ladies' Minstrels," with twenty pretty girls. Miss Emina Turpin will be interlocutor, Heilen Brunbray Bones, and Eloise Johnson, "Samba." Other features will be "Davie Jones' Saxophone Band," a screening fare comedy entitled, "Miss Jones' Buffet Flat": an Egyptian dance by Miss Johnson, the current week's bill in new and original acts, an augmented orchestra and many other professional acts and specialties. The admission will be 50 cents plus 5 cents Government tax. No seats will be reserved, but only 1,000 tickets will be sold, insuring everyone a seat. A coupon, attached to each ticket, will admit each holder to free admission to Jazzland after the show. These tickets are now on sale at the Booker Washington Theater box office. "The Finger of Justice" and "Peacock Alley" At The Star "The Finger of Justice," an underworld photoplay, showing a true story of San Francisco's Barbary Coast, will be featured at The Star Theatre this Saturday and Sunday. It is said to be a gripping and sensational picture of the most notorious spot in the world. Its a high class production and parents are requested to bring their children to see it. The Star program for the week includes a number of super-specials, with Mase Murray in "Peckcock Alley" on Thursday, being the most pretentious in this Metro release for Tiffany Productions, Inc., presented by Robert Z. Leonard, Miss Murray portrays the part of a Parishian dancer, who, as the darling of the famous city of pleasure, is feted and adored for her daring and artistic creations. She falls in love with a youthful American, a small town boy and goes back to his home only to find that the people of the little village are scandalized at his French wife. The awakening among the bright lights of Broadway gives this story a turn which makes it one of the most dramatic offerings of the screen.

The story is replete with stirring situations and adventures, illustrating the successful manner in which seventeen trappers, the entire population of an isolated trading post, force an insolvent agent to observe their "honor of the big snowy" with Nancy Cummigs, the only woman living at the post and the beautiful bride of a fellow trapper. Among the seventeen protectors is Jan. he who had never known the thrill of a love affair until the day Nancy arrived at the post and had lived in the belief that all women were alike—the kind chiefly found in the camp resorts. His secret love for Nancy forms the basis for Mr. Carwood's story. On Thursday and Friday, this On Thursday and Friday, this theatre will show George Loane Tucker's last picture production.

Peacock Alley is a lane just around the corner from the Primrose Path. It lends to the crossroads of The Straight and Narrow and Easy Street; and there every woman must choose her way. y, MAY 20 "THE LAUGHING GAS" THE GREAT REWARD" Theatre this Saturday. The story deals with a young man and women of high social station in life, and another couple of humble origin and surroundings. By a strange fate, the fashionable young man weds the daughter of a washerwoman, and the aristocratic girl marries her chaufeur. How they come to realize their error and ultimately are brought together in more congenial ties, makes a thoroughly delightful story. Leatrice Joy, Conrad Nagel, Edith Roberts and Jack Mower portray the leading roles with excellent results. Priscilla Dean will be presented in "Wild Honey" on Sunday. Miss Dean plays the role of Lady Virtienne, a high-bred English woman whose grandfather uses her to attract a wealthy but uncoffee business man in to a financial venture. This carries her through many startling adventures. Her wild ride to reach her sweeteart before the flood gets him, and their struggles in the torrent form one of the most realistic and breath-taking thrills seen on the screen in many a day. Sessue Hayakawa, noted Japanese-American film star, will appear in his intest R-C Pictures vehicle "Where Lights Are Low" at the jst-A-mere Theatre on Sunday and Monday. The story has to do with the adventures of a young Chinese prince who loves the daughter of an humble gardener and has a multitude of trouble winning, her. The thread of action leads from far away China, where the story begins, to America. It is rich, in color and incident, with a smashing climax in San Francisco's Chinatown before the great fire laid waste that picturesque district. The story has to do with the adventures of a young Chinese prince. The mid-week feature, on Wednesday and Thursday, will be Priscilla Dean in "Wild Honey." The story concerns an English society girl who passes through a remarkable series of adventures, finally to find her heart's desire on the veldt of South Africa. The biggest thrill is based on the destructive food and a series of brilliant rescues. The flood scenes show a pent-up river unleashed to sweep down a narrow canyon and through a valley filled with settlers. The turbulence of the water and its destructive power are said to be shown with a realism never before attained on the screen. Priscilla is shown in the midst of it, battling her way to safety and happiness with her usual courage and dash. "Saturday Night," will be the feature at The Olympia Theatre this Saturday. The story of this excellent photoplay deals with two young society folk who after breaking their own engagement marry outside their set and live to repent their rashness. Even the other man and woman concerned discover their error when it is too late, but fate takes a hand later and after many thrilling scenes, Cupid straightens out the matter to the satisfaction of those concerned. Jackie Coogan in "My Boy" will be the feature on Sunday. In this picture Jackie plays the part of an orphan immigrant who manages to get into this country, and picks his own home. Delicious humor and infinite pathos have been skillfully blended by the director into a production that is without a flaw. On Thursday, Pearl White will be featured in "Without Fear." The tale revolves around a man who has become rich overnight—a man who is modest and democratic, who has no desire to enter society, but who society takes it upon itself to snub. His big-hearted, democratic manner finds its reward, however, in the love of a society girl who defies the rules and the warning of her circle. C. Gardner Sullivan, who has undoubtedly written more screen successes than any other two photo-dramatists, is said to have gained new laurels in the Graf production, "White Hands," in which Hobart Bosworth will be seen as the star at The, Casina Theatre this Saturday. Sullivan knowing Mr. Bosworth's fondness for sea stories, wrote "White Hands," especially for the star. The scenes of the story are laid along the North coast of Africa and in the heart of the Sahara, Desert. Bosworth is seen as a brutal, licentious captain of a trading vessel and meets defeat through the sweetness of a little child. Max Graf selected a cast including Robert McKim, Elinor Fair, little Baby Muriel, Freeman Wood. Al Kapffman and others. The feature on Sunday will be Franklin Farnum in "So This Arizona." "It is his latest, rural western drama, and replete with excitement from start to finish. Anita Stawart, in: "The Invisible Fear" will be the Lincoln Theatre special this *Saturday*. The story opens with an unfortunate episode in the life of a girl of high social position. Attacked by a man in a lonely cabin, she defends herself and escapes. But she is led to believe that she has killed her assailant. The shock develops into a haunting fear when the same man later becomes her husband's guest at home.

Burkham were among those who urged Davis to make the race. If this is true, we must confess that we regret to see such men as Mr. Koeln and Mr. Burkham make the mistake as we see it, by offering their support to Mr. Davis. We make this statement because we have for many years had faith in the political game as played by Mr. Koeln and therefore, we regret to see him "on a loser."

It veiled appeal for funds is his stature, political favors have been offered him in his National Committeeman. Mr. Johnson is clever, and knows human nature made a big blunder in his new scheme. Because as a matter of fact, all Link has at all cost. We do not know what he will into a statement from the pen of his libritor. Atlanta Independent, Link has sold out the people of Georgia, and by him in his fight for a place on the bench his boast that he was a "fighter" and rights of the people, but according to only a joke.

But the joke of the who never uttered a word in criticism of the at Washington, or said one word in denying the propaganda or policy in vogue in our of the President. Mr. Johnson had the President, Mr. Phillips or his lilywhite hair the impression with us that he was with acquiesced with them in the policy to Georgia. He did not have the moral courage to journal said them for him. He adopted them for the reason he knows that if he stability for the alleged utterances, he can made such utterances and the Journal issued to see the eyes of Ben Davis open. He light that we saw him when we first man" a little more than two years ago. Look us a short time to discover that Lin without honor or integrity. He is not Our principle reason for opposing Mr. Davis is, when he was Park Commissioner, colored people, were denied tennis privileges of playing tennis on the public courts in the parks which they as tax payers helped to maintain. We take it, that any public official who by the power of his office, will suppress and arbitrarily deny to a class of citizens their fundamental rights, is not big enough to fill the high office of the United States Senate. The rankest injustice that can be done any class of citizens, is to tax them as all other classes, and yet deny them the benefits of such taxation. This is just what Mr. Davis did when he was Park Commissioner here a few years ago. For the high office of United States Senator, only strong upstanding men should be selected. Men who know their duty without fear or favor. Men who would rather be right than to be President of the United States. The arbitrary position toward the Colored people assumed by Mr. Davis when Park Commissioner was not only an injustice, but an insult to the Negroes of the State. We therefore warn the party leaders to stay off 2 men who are talking about filing: Dwight F. Davis and E. E. E. McJimsey. "They are dead ones." NATIONAL COMMITTEEMAN JOHNSON Henry Lincoln Johnson, Republican National Committeeman from Georgia, has hatched out a new scheme by which he hopes to work upon purse-strings of a sympathetic public to the extent that enough money will continue to come into the coffers of the promoters of the "Legislatative Bureau" (?) to keep the wolf away from Link's door until he can land a job at Washington. His latest veiled appeal for funds is his statement that "flattering" political favors have been offered him if he would only resign as National Committeeman. Mr. Johnson, we will admit, is pretty clever, and knows human nature quite well, but he has made a big blunder in his new scheme. No one will believe him, because as a matter of fact, all Link wants is a job and a job at all cost. We do not know what he wouldn't do just for a job. According to a statement from the pen of his life-long friend, Bon Davis, editor, Atlanta Independent, Link has betrayed, surrendered or sold out the people of Georgia, and especially those who stood by him in his fight for a place on the National Committee. Link made his boast that he was a "fighter" and that he stood for the rights of the people, but according to Ben Davis' views, he is only a joke. Johnson is quoted as saying: "As a member of the National Committee, I cannot denounce the Administration and remain a member of the committee as a matter of principle. It is an open secret, that I could be extended, flattering political favors were I willing to resign from the committee." After making the above statement, he went to Atlanta to deliver an address, during which it is alleged that he criticized the Harding Administration. Speaking of Link's courage, his friend Ben Davis hops this to our Of course, the Independent never agreed with the good Colonel in March when he said he could not criticise the President—that the President had nothing to do with our National Committeeman, and we did not think so when he is alleged to have criticised him in April. But the joke of the whole matter is Mr. Johnson never uttered a word in criticism of the present administration at Washington, or said one word in denunciation of the lilywhite propaganda or policy in vogue in our state at the suggestion of the President. Mr. Johnson had no unkind word for the President. Mr. Phillips or his lilywhite henchmen. In fact, he left the impression with us that he was with them—agreed with and acquiesced with them in the policy they were propagating in Georgia. "The Colonel did not have the moral courage to say those things—the Journal said them for him. He adopted them and promulgated them for the reason he knows that if he was called to strict accountability for the alleged utterances, he could prove that he never made such utterances and the Journal misquoted him." We are pleased to see the eyes of Ben Davis open so he can see Link in the light that we saw him when we first met the Georgia "statesman" a little more than two years ago. It only took us a short time to discover that Link was a "four-flusher" without honor or integrity. He is not trustworthy. HELP THE HELPLESS Il Orphan's Home Day will be observed on day 20, 21.

A larger patronage is expected this year than ever before. This is rightly so because, of the great need of a building for the children who must be cared for. The Orphans will be with us always. Somebody must "mother" the children if they are to survive. The community is morally responsible for the care of the children. The Board needs $15,000 by May 22nd. Everybody can help swell this fund by attending the Saturday/Sunday Orphan's Home Day. This will be a nice outing and those who attend will not only benefit themselves but will help a worthy cause. Help the helpless and watch for the returns. We doubt the political wisdom of running a St. Louis man for United States Senate. Remember, St. Louis has one Senator — What will the rest of the State think? Hon. Chas. Nagel is an outstanding fearless able statesman. St. Louis will do well not to overlook him, if considering running a man for United States Senate. The Argus is just waiting for them to "bob up." There are others who are not worthy of our support. This space will be devoted each week to a discussion of Community Problems and Current Topics. WHERE IS HAPPINESS? Where is happiness? And one is not hane who so inquires! The present period of social and industrial unrest has led us into such an awful imbroglio that not even a modicum of hope seems to be in sight at times. And yet, there is individual peace and happiness! Happiness is NOT in WEALTH! Recent statistics show that out of every hundred persons, only ONE leaves, wealth, two leave comfort, fifteen leave from $2,000 to $10,000 EIGHTY-TWO LEAVE NOTHING! These are facts! So the majority of us need not expert to find happiness along the pathway of wealth. The olds are against us! Happiness is NOT in HEALTH. Recent statistics show that out of every hundred "persons ONLY FIFTEEN are HEALTHY. Five are nearly well. EIGHTY are physically BELOW the standard. This is not to alarm you! It is simply to show that happiness is not to be expected then health. Further evidence is the fact that, some '400,000 of us in the Southern states are sick annually and our expenses for doctor's fees and drugs mount up into the MILLIONS. Happiness is NOT in POWER. History furnishes simple proof. Coca-Cola wielded a drunken power and so did Caesar. The Kaiser drank from a fountain of poison power which, so infuriated him that he thought he walked with the "Almighty God." But the dream of a world wide dictatorship proved the very unimbing of this earthly monarch. The same is true of capitalists and profitists and others who would ring from labor the fruits of its honest toll. Where is HAPPINESS? IT IS IN YOU! It is ever present! It is that indescribable something in each man which directs him toight. Psychologists call it the successeous mind. Regardless of the name, the most ignorant man knows there is a something which tells him what is right whether he follows it& confinits or not. Not met the plausibility of the crowd, but the satisfaction of the soul! Harvey - Happiness is to be formal ONLY in man's HEART! RACE ASSOCIATION HAS ANN'L MEETING Associated Negro Press PHILADELPHIA, Dec.

ARKANSAS BAPTIST COLLEGE By Leroy A.

Bowlett Sixth Installment What is that unmistakable influence you recognize in certain individuals who without any noticeable willed effort, holds out, for you a powerful force of charm and attraction. You feel it, and by your immediate action and facial expression, tell to the world your thought without a word being spoken. Yet another individual at the same time and place fills you with a sense aversion, the face is forbiddling; the very thought of them fills you with a feeling of repulsion. Perhaps you know—perhaps not. Unless you are Psychically inclined, these brief articles will hold little interest; but if you are they will be read with much benefit and practical usefulness. Like all other Psychological efforts, the dainty flower of perfection is not plucked from a dangerous mountain peak without experiencing dangers and difficulties; but the bracing air, the view below and the possession of the flower fills the soul with a sense of colorful rapture joy and freedom that must be first experienced before entered. Let us see: Possession of the "EIGHTH SENSE" is the pinnacle of Super Psychosis. It employed with the Positive Principal of Psyche Evolution, it advances one to the highest and noiest position of Psyche perfection to which man innate is capable of attaining. The Eighth Sense, properly developed delivers to its owner the power of knowing truth. It deals with Truth as it is now, but not with the future or those events of the past. The Agents of Spiritualism is capable of willed projection into either past of present, while Psychosis is principally magiteal in operations and while more in tense in power, useful in practical everyday life and personal contigier is ONE OF THE NEW C.M.E.BISHOPS One of the four ministers raised to the Bishkofie by the C. M. E. Conference which has just adjourned here was Rev. Robert Turner Brown. A. M. M. D. D. D., president of Miles Memorial College of Birmingham, Ala. in a biography of him. Rev. R. A Kirk, presiding elder of the Tuscaloosa District, Northport. Alabama says Rev. Robert Turner Brown was born and reared on the farm in Courtland, Lawrence County, Alabama. His father, died when he was two years of age, but he lived with his mother, and his uncle Anderson-Watkins, until he was fifteen years of age. At that time his uncle died. His mother, Eliza Brown, had only two children, Calvin L. Brown, the older and Robert Turner Brown. Because of his aptness and adaptation for business, his mother earnest all of her business in his hands. The quality of honesty and adherence to business begin to develop in him on the farm. Col. James E. Saunders the owner of the plantation, had implicit confidence in him and gave him much responsible work to do. He managed the farm every year for his mother and never came out in debt at the end of the year. He combined his business on a cash basis; he never gave a mortgage for supplies. Young Robert had a thrist for education, though without any assistance, and he had the care of his mother on his shoulders. He was devoted to his mother and always made her a comfortable support. He made one crop after his brother left home, and then he sold his mules, farm implements and farm supplies to enter Walden University, Nashville, Tenn. These things brought him five hundred dollars in cash. He built a house on the plantation of Rev. James Legg, a friend of the family, and the man who licensed him to exhort in Moulton, Ala. His mother became dissatisfied at living in the mountain, as she had lived in the valley all of her life. So the next year he bought a home in Athens, Ala., for his mother. Although in the Walden University for ten years, he never deserted his mother but provided for her and newer allowed her to suffer for anything. He is a determined man, a man with a resolution fixed to go forward to success, a man of reason, and unshaking, but unpulsed principles; he is not easily discouraged. He is a man with a broad vision. He graduated from Wahlen University and received the degree of Rachael of Arts, and after many years the degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon him. He graduated from the theological department of the same institution. He graduated from Mehary Medical College in 1885, and was the raidedictorian of his class. There were eightteen young men in the class; that was the largest class that had ever graduated from Mehary Medical College. The degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred on him by Philander Smith College in 1880. Visits Relatives Here While in St. Louis, Bishop Brown was the guest of his cousin, Mrs. A. S. Morgan. 2001-Finney avenue. His entire family: Dr. R. T. Brown, Jr., Prof A. J. Dobbins and wife and Mrs. G. W. Robinson of Birmingham accompanied him to the Conference. Prof Dobbins is principal of Slater School, Birmingham; and Mrs Robinson is proprietress of the Oak City Cafe at Tuscaloosa, Alabama. not enshrowded in mystery and superstition—those two alluring agents to which so many of us fall victim. He who would have knowledge seeks it, and the Eighth Sense is the golden gate thru which every great mind has passed, and the Positive Principal of Psychic Evolution is the power which made their deeds possible to them. Our people have had really great men and women. We, every one of us have wonderful minds if properly developed. We have been trained to work, at the expense of the thinking faculty. We are producing a race of imitators instead of original actors. We make too much use of the mouth and too little of the eye; great for a show-off, and squander our energies making a great noise over nothing; yet those few who have really found them selves are outstripping the other fellow who thinks he knows something. There is a secret of these phenomenal successes. By well known, and scientifically established laws, every individual has his or her own established length of magnetoidal vibratory activity, this in turn influencing others. The Sixth sense is the instantaneous analysis of all things, and accurate adjustment to mental and psychic vibrations of all people. It is the power by which an analysis is made, dissecting every leaf, branch and fiber of trunk to discover of what material, and for what purpose the soul was made. In the very near future, parents will cease training children contrary to their natural endowments. By following all the known laws of science in face reading and character analysis, combined with the Positive Principal of Psychic Evolution, every individual would reach the zenith of perfection and failure be a crime, utterly impossible to mankind. THE NEGRO POPULATION INCREASED IN MISSOURI JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., May 16— According to a report sent out by the Missouri Industrial Commission, the Negro population increased from 157, 452 in 1910 to 178,241 in 1920 or 132 per cent, compared with an increase in the white population during the same period. From 3,134,382 to 3,225,644, or 29 per cent, according to tabulations made by the commission based on returns of the Federal census from Wash- ington on the two enumerations. According to the Federal Census returns the percentage of Negroes' decreased in 1920, from that in 1910 in most of the rural districts of Missouri. Jackson county is reported to have 31,500 Negro men, women and chil- dren, 30,719 of which live in Kansas City, leaving 1,500 in the county out- side of Kansas City. St. Louis City is reported to have 6,854 Negroes while St. Louis county only reports 4,729. According to the tabulation made by Secretary Cobb, Buchanan county including St. Joseph has 4,325. Cod county including Jefferson City 2,151. Greene county including Springfield 2,261. Pettis county including Sedalia, 2,748. Secretary Cobb has had numerous inquiries from different parts of the United States asking for information as to the work of the Missouri Negro Industrial Commission and has given all the information desired in answering these inquiries. Gov. Arthur M. Hyde had especially commended Secretary Cobb for the good work being done in which he has shown initiative, energy and capability. Educators Visit Howard Univ. AWASHINGTON, D. C. May 17. Distinguished educators who come to Washington almost daily visit the campus of the Howard University. Many of these are national and international characters. The faculty and student body of the University; therefore, have ample opportunity to come into contact with educational forces of outstanding importance. Nearly every educational pilgrim to the National Capital seems to make if hjs duty to visit Howard. Recent visitors to the/University have been Dr. Tetsujiro Inoue, member of the Imperial Academy, and Professor of Philosophy in the Imperial University. Tokyo, Japan; Mr. Hachiro Arita. First Secretary of the Japanese Embassy; Dr. Helen L. Young. Teacher of Modern European History. Hunter College New York City, and many others. Aside from these educational visitors many other important persons are the University. Howard University will be the gathering place of a host of graduates former students, parents and visiting friends for the coming Commencement Week. June 4-10 9.

Since 1889 there have been 3443 known mob murders, sixty-four of the victims-being women. In only a few instances has prosecution of the lynchers been even attempted. American mobs murdered sixty-four persons in 1921, of whom four were publicly burned at the stake.

The Following Excerpts Are From Letters Received From Sympathetic Persons Not Signers of the Above Memorial "The killing and burning alive of human beings by mobs in the United States is a approach upon our country throughout the civilized world and threatens organized government in the nation." "Legislation which will put a stop to such atrocities or decrease the number thereof is highly commendable. Mob violence has no place in the civilization of the United States, and urgently urge the passage of Federal legislation to correct this evil." (Signed) ARTHUR M. HYDE. Governor of Missouri "I am in through sympathy with the purpose of the Draft Law, the Law Bill, and I hope it will become a law." (Signed) SAMUEL R. McKELYE Governor of Nebraska "The killing and burning alive of human beings by mobs in the United States in a breach upon one country PAGES 7 TO 12 threatens organized government in the nation. "In only a few instances has prosecution of the lynchers been even attempted. I believe that national action is required to cope with this evil. The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was adopted in the House on January 26, and the undersigned earnestly urges the prompt enactment of this measure. (Congressman B. A. A. NESTOS Governor of North Dakota "The lynching of human beings is the most barbarous and / valonous practice that is supposedly civilized nation will permit. The only remedy it appears to me, is to have the federal government institute proper legislation to meet it. Disrespect for law is the most dangerous element which could come into our thought, and there is a growing tendency which must be faced. Lynching shows an absolute disrespect for the law, places where most of the lynchings take place, even the officers who are sworn to uphold the law are afraid to move in these cases of ruthless murder. "I most certainly and emphatically desire the passage of proper federal laws to hold these crimes to the minimum." (Signed) D. M. DAVIS Governor of Idaho "The killing and burning alive of human beings by molos in the United States is a reproach imposed on the country." The House of Representatives has passed the Dyer Anti-Lyphing Bill invoking the power of the federal government to end the infamy of American mob murder and I earnestly urge its prompt enactment by the Senate of the United States." (Signed) WADE H. ELLIS Washington, D. C. Former Assistant to the United States Attorney General "I have not seen the Dyer Bill and am, therefore, unprepared to commit myself regarding it. It may or may not propose a proper remedy for a serious alique. I do believe, however that it is the duty of the Federal Government to lend its aid in stamping out lynching which consists, per law, as a violation of the principles of this country to found anywhere within the country." EMMET D. BOYLE. Governor of Nevada "I am in favor of the enactment of national legislation, which tend to prevent the practice of lynching and to assure to persons within the jurisdiction of every state equal protection, of the laws." (Signed) EMERY J. SAN SOUCI. Governor of Rhode Island. "The killing and burning alive of human beings by mobs in the United States is a country throughout the civilized world that threatens organized government in the nation. I favor such legislation as will end this mob violence." Governor of California. "It appearing that the States cannot all be depended on to enact legislation against mob murder. I believe that Congress should invoke the power of the Federal Government to end that infamy." CHARLES W. ELLIOT. Press. Emeritus. Harvard University. "The killing and burning alive of human beings by mobs in the United States is a relegacy upon a government established on the basis of security to life and property, and upon a people claiming the most advanced state in civil government. The figures of 3,443 known mob murders since 1890 should arouse the Compass of the United States to provide immediate effective measures to stamp out this heathenish practice, which if permitted is to one world extend as to all classes. "It is to be baped that the Senate will give immediate and hearty support to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill passed by the House on the 26th of January, 1922, and to such procedure I heartily subscribe." (Signed) S. F. SNIVELY, Mayor, Deluth, Minnesota, "I am in favor of this or any law that will eliminate lynching or mob violence." (Signed) JAS, J. THOMAS, Mayor, Columbus, Ohio Mayor, Columbus, Onto. "It has come to my attention that a Memorial is being circulated to be presented to the United States Senate to urge the enactment of legislation which would make tracking a crime against the United States. I am heartily in favor of such legislation." (Signed) JOSEPH H. GAINER Mayor, Providence, R. I. "Mob law and mob action constitute anarchy in its worst form, being open flagrant and violent disregard of and contempt for law and order and the constituted authorities. Communities or states which permit the possession of mob rule thereby demonstrate their inability to maintain law and order within their limits or to protect their inhabitants in the enjoyment of the human rights guaranteed in the Federal Constitution. Therefore, it is the duty of the United States Government, under the Constitution, to enforce the laws Y and VI of the Constitution, to interfere to protect the Constitutional rights of the citizens, and to provide redress for the relatives, families or dependents of the victims of mob action against the local, non-governmental entities which fall or refuse to tolerate their citizens adequate protection."

The ultimate product of this amalgamation will be the American type, as distinct from the other nationalities from which the bleached elements will have been drawn to question or amalgamation, like that of question or amalgamation from the narrow, prejudiced viewpoint or from the natural, philosophical viewpoint. In keeping with our religious and legitimately, social standards, bloods, may be blended legitimately, only in the bonds of wedlock. While there have been comparatively few marriages between Jews and Gentiles. A marriage we led with approval upon the inter-marriage of all strains of Caucasian blood. In a few instances splendid American girls have married highly cultivated men of the Chinese and Japanese races. White men have been married to Red Indian Women. Some distinguished American ladies, among them a former "First lady of the sand," have boasted having Indian blood in their veins. But when it comes to marriage between the white and black races, there is general objection on both sides of the line. The thought of annalagamating the two races is repellent to most minds. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Sunday School Lesson (By R. Ray, D. D. Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago) Copyright 1922 Western Newspaper Univ. LESSON FOR MAY 21 HILKIAH'S GREAT DISCOVERY The answer is, it is being done. This anmalagation of the black and white races has been going on for more than half a century. In the great lock, the turpitude connected therewith has been much lower on the part of the white fathers than upon that of the colored mothers. To such extent has anmalagation obtained that a very large percentage of the so-called colored population of mixed blood and racial groups of the percentage is more white than black. Nothing in the history of America's social and moral life would be so startling as the facts concerning the cohabitation between white men and colored women, were these facts made known. And were it possible for the chemist to seek out the "great-family" strains of blood in many "colored" men's veins, a lot of us would be proud to claim it in our own. The fact remains that, whether the best thinkers of both races would have so willled it the physical and mental standards of those Americans classified as "colored" have been materially raised by this man, or whether there be any further mixing of the pure white blood with the black, from that already done the time will come when there will be little if any pure Negro blood in America. In considering this subject in its entirety, in its reach over the centuries, it is difficult to distinguish between the "moral" and ultimately militant phases of it. That which sometimes is provincially and temporarily immoral and unmethedictally ultimately works out—for the good of society as a whole, for example—is the Biblical account of the origin and extension of the human race, judged by our own standards of restitude, the pride of us all receives a frightful blow from the fact that all kindreds and tongues are descendants from Cain, who murdered his brother and married or mated with his sister. Today we punish the first crime with death and the second by imprisonment. Yet, if the professed faith of the Jewish and Christian churches, upon this particular point, be true, the rate would have been much lower. The fratricide cohabited with his sister. It goes without saying, of course, that without doing violence to the fundamental teachings of the Bible very few people of intelligence accept its literal statements concerning the beginnings of humanity.

About a hundred years elapsed between the reformation under Hezekiah and that of Josiah. Some time during this time the book of God's law had been lost. Two wicked kings had reigned in this interval. The Lord had given Hezekiah much wealth. His son Mahashech, coming into possession of his father's property, and being ungodly, would naturally neglect the Bible, if not purposely try, to put it from sight. Those who do not obey the law of God, are usually interested in putting it out of sight. 1. The Book of the Law Found (vv. 14-17). 1. The Occasion (v. 14). It was while repairing the temple during Josiah's reformation that the law was discovered. 2. The Book Delivered to the King (vv. 15-17). Upon making a report to the king of work done, the king was told of the finding of the book of the law by Hilkiah, and the book delivered to blim. II. The Effect of the Reading of the Law (vv. 18-28). Shaphan the Scribe read the law before the king. 1. The King Rent His Clothes (v. 19). As the law was read before him he was led to realize more seriously the awful extent of the mation's departure from God. He knew that sin merited punishment. The function of the law is to reveal sin. The man who will honestly hear the demands of God's law will fall upon his knees before God and cry for mercy. The rending of the royal robes indicated that the king was penitently sorrowful. 2. The King Sent a Deputation to Make Inquiry of the Lord (vv. 20, 21). The king included himself in the guilt before God. "Go inquire for me and for them that are left, for great is the wrath of the Lord that is poured out upon us." His sense of sin was so keen that he sent them to inquire as to whether there was any means of averting the judgments of the Lord. Instinctively the blimman heart turns from God's threatening judgments to a means of escape. The soul that sorrows for sin inquires for a way of escape. The law prepares for the gospel. The law is our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ. The soul under condemnation inquires, "What must I do to be saved?" 3. The Message of Huldah, the Prophetess (vv. 22-25). (1) Confirmation of what the law said (vv. 22-25). She said that all the curses written in the law must fail for the sins had been so flagrant that God's wrath could not be restrained. Destruction was hanging over Jerusalem and it was too late to avert it. It was not too late to repent to obtain mercy from God, but the outward consequence of sin must be realized. This finds fulfilment on every hand today. The murderer must hang. His soul may go directly to heaven, provided he has accepted Jesus Christ. (2) Acceptance of Josiah's repentance (vv. 22-29). Because of his tenderness of heart and deep penitence, the Lord said he should be gathered to his grave in peace, and should not see all the evil to be brought on Jerusalem and its people. What Huldah said was true even though Josiah died in battle (38: 22-25). When God accepts a man and forgives him, his death is a peaceful one even though it may be on the battlefield. God's presence is with him and he thus will go straight to the heavenly home. III. The Law Obeyed (vv. 29-33). 1. The King Read the Law (vv. 29, 30). 2. He gathered together the inhabitants of Jerusalem, including the priests, Levites and elders, and read unto them the law. 2. The King Made a Covenant Before the Lord to Keep His Commandments, and Testimonies (vv. 31, 32). This was done sincerely—with all his heart and soul. He caused all that were present to stand; to it. 3. The king took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to Jardel (vv. 29). All the days of the king they departed not from following after the Lord. When you feel as if things were dragging you down into the depths will you remember that the Lord Jesus (Christ is at your side?) All human help may seem very far away; but He is not far away. Even through the noise of the storm He can be heavy the faintest cry. "Lord save me, I perilah," and He will save you to the uttermost. Pictures!!

The Periscope By Associated Negro Press BAR SINISTER Persecuting The Miners At Charles Town, W. Ya. By William Pickens We often hear such beautiful fiction as the following: "Color has nothing to do with it; it is all a matter of economies." "Why organize the colored people as colored people? It is not at all a question of color. It is merely a social problem, and it can be settled, by a labor movement, or a social movement or by this universal scheme or that." And a whole lot of other such fictions we hear expressed—in direct contradiction to the everyday facts of American life. Even some colored men have gotten into "economics" and "social" groups and have found out that color has nothing whatever to do with their status and conditions, and they lift their eyebrows and look wise and feel ever so superior to those colored folk who still insist that they have difficulties which are common and peculiar matters of the colored group in America. When we hear a "wise" colored man who has found out that there is no race problem, we are not worried, for we know that we could convince him any time he may find time to be convinced. We can take him to Mississippi, for example, and allow him to carry along the "economics" and "socialism" he can pack in his suit cases, and before he gets twenty-five miles on his ourney from Meridian toward Jacksonville, he will find out that there is a third something in that commonwealth that neither one of his universal nostrums will affect. ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, MAY 19, 1922 resent all of us who are downed; and that these white men in their present predicament can doubtless feel that their plight is ours and ours theirs. And just as our bosoms had swelled almost to bursting with this great big aeonic color-line smashing idea, we were suddenly knocked right back into Georgia by the very next paragraph. "Indignation also ran high because eight white men had been chained with a Negro, and forced to ride and walk in public with him..... Officer in charge of the prisoners admitted that they had 'probably made a mistake.' And then we read that as a result a great mob of the unclearcerated miners gathered in front of the jail and refused to leave until they had been assured that their 'buddies' were being better treated. Now, do you suppose that this black man in jail or any black man out of jail could feel that he was one of the economic, social problem 'buddies' of these white miners, when the worst and most horrible thing they had found to complain against was the color of his skin? In Our cosmos judgment much worse things had happened to these white prisoners than the mere physical presence of this colored man; for example they had been handcuffed for seventeen hours and their wrists were swollen; they were all chained together, so that sanitation and desecency were impossible; they had been marched through the public streets under armed guards to their humiliation. But in all this the poor Negra miner was just one of their fellow sufferers. They resented his color as if it was a part of their persecution. To them he was even more objectionable than their persecuters. And yet we hear the wise ones saying: "Why do colored men discuss any race problem?" Only a few days ago some wise white man at Tuskegee said that race problem is a "silly" expression. Well, then, let him name it some thing else, names do not change matures. Whatever it is named, it will still be what it is. In this country the Negro race stands face to face with a difficulty, artificial, and unjust, that is put in their way solely because of their race, and color. Economic and social injustice may increase their economies and social burdens whichever may you prefer to state it. To be just in the wise ones, we wish to say that it is our belief that they are usually talking about what ought to be and not what is. Of course it ought to be that the color of if follows' face and the arch of his foot should have nothing to do with high right vote or dig coal. And people who deal in theories are like school boys writing orations; they find it much more agreeable to the logic of their minds to arrange things as they ought to be, than to tackle them as they are. A sophomore in college can easily settle the things that puzzle Lloyd George and Tetechlerin at Genoa for the sophomore will mentally arrange all the premises and other things they ought to be, and then draw his inevitable conclusions. We will, if necessary, even re-arrange human nature to suit the special needs of the times that George and the Russian, in spite of all their dodging must finally face things as they are, and things that they cannot re-arrange to suit their wishes. So when people tell us that it is all a matter of work, wages, prices and communism, and that there is no difficulty due to race or color, we must understand and forgive, for they are speaking in a high ideation of what ought to be—and what may be—be higher than those and years from now. FREDRICK DOUGLASS AND MARY B. TALBERT At last the old home of Fredrick Douglass at Anacostia Heights, Washington, D. C. has been redeemed from debt, wire and decay, and on August 12, 1922, it will be formally dedicated as a national shrine for the American Negro and a Mecca for all the world that admires great, men. A woman did it. Her name is Mary B. Talbert. She resides herself at 521 Michigan Ave., Buffalo, New York. We venerate Lincoln everywhere; the white Washington at Mt. Vernon; the dark Washington at Tuskegee; and Fredrick Douglass the Great at Anacostia. Mary B. Talbert has immortalized herself in this task. Booker T. Washington: himself a very great man, undertook to do this very thing in his strong days, and failed. Mr. Washington was one of the busiest of mer- fails and the people did not respond to a mere call. Mrs. Talbert got the women together, took the road hercrow car in the United States until the fifteen thousand dollars was raised to pay off the mortgage, repair the house and beautify the grounds. We cannot yet realize just what this means to all of us. Our grandchildren will realize it a bit more adequately. This is a deed of this woman and the women. When we saw her striving and suffering thru the land in this ambitious cause, few of us men had the nerve to refuse when we were asked to share in the effort with our little money. But it is noteworthy that the greatest single donation came from another black woman, Madam C. J. Walker. Ancestin will be an everlasting memorial to Mary B. Talbert as to Fredrick Douglass. This woman has had a career in these United States who prepared her great heart, and great head for such accomplishment. She has striven all the way up from school teacher, in a state like Arkansas to a national and international leader of her kind. She set out to redeem this home when its redemption was regarded as almost impossible—a great big man having failed at it and the greatest of all wars absorbing the energies of people. As President of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs she worked for it here and even as a "X" worker among the Colored troops in France she collected money for "Donglass Home." It has been an almost individual task. Devoted service has brought her not only this success but many other honors. Two years ago she made a trip to Norway as the first regular elected delegate to the International Council of Women and delivered an address in the House of Parliament in Christiana. Let us take our little children to Anacostia and tell them the story of the Great man. While Donglass threw Great, the Man won the glory, it took a woman's hand to garner and preserve the best of it for posterity. DROPSY TREATMENT Treatment.

CHATSWORTH, GA. GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS Recommends Daily Use of Magnesia To Overcome Trouble, Caused by Fermenting Food and Acid Indigestion Gas and wind in the stomach accompanied by that full, blearest feeling after eating are almost certain evidence of the presence of excessive hydrochloric acid in the stomach, creating so-called "acid indigestion." Acid stomachs are dangerous because too much acid irritates the delicate lining of the stomach, often leading to gastritis accompanied by serious stomach ulcers. Food ferments and sours, creating the distressing gas which distends the stomach and bumps the normal functions of the vital internal organs, often effecting the heart. "It is the worst of folly to neglect such a sepsis condition or to treat with ordinary digestive aids 'which have no neutralizing effect on the stomach acids. Instead get from any druggist a few ounces of Bisurated Magnesium and take a teaspoonful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This will drive the gas wind and bloat right out of the body, sweeten the stomach, neutralize the excess acid and prevent its formation and there is no sourness or pain. Bisurated Magnesium (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and the best form of magnesium for stomach purposes. It is used by thousands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion. YOU MISS THE NEWS IF YOU MISS READING THE ARGUS “R-H-O-D-A-O” World's best for falling hair, dandruff, cuff.

Such refusal is deferred by him to be major discrimination. S. M. Bass attorney for the plaintiff, said that he also represents five other Negroes who are interested in getting permission to play golf on the municipal course, and that the suit did not involve the Negroes. The lawyer said permits were granted last year to Howard and other Negroes to play golf at Forest Park. Commissioner Fane said that in declining to issue a golf permit to Howard he explained that such action, in his opinion, was best for all concerned, as there were no facilities for a representative.

The St. Louis Stars Baseball Club has shown what a lack of practice can do to an otherwise good ball club and added to the lack of practice are the injuries to several of the stars of the team. Scales, the peppery third sacker, was sent home from Indianapolis with a pulled tendon and will be lost to the club for several weeks. Finner was sent home owing to an injury to his arm. Drake was laid up with a sore arm and several of the members of the team have been playing with bad colds. In a word the team is in worst possible form of poor condition. The boys, however, have not lost heart and are plugging away gamely and have learned a great deal during the games in Indianapolis and in Chicago. Contrasted to the poor condition of the Stars is the almost perfect form of the Indianapolis and Chicago teams.
