NEW YORK TIMES SAYS DEFLECTION OF RACE VOTE MAY AFFECT REPUBLICANS By ERNEST HARVIER In the NEW YORK TIMES An Exponent of Truth and Justice VOL. XI. NO. 13 NEW YORK TIME DEFLECTION O MAY AFFECT Party Ignored Campaign Plot Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill Breach Of Faith. See After Primaries Without BY ERNEST HARVIER An important contributing cause to the sensationally large majority given John F. Hylan for mayor last November was the detection of the Negro voters from the Republican Party in what is known as "New York's Black Belt." in and around 125th and 145th streets Madison and Eighth Avenues. There was a live defection in the colored district of Brooklyn and Queens. To the number of mobsters and for the first time they voted on the ticket. This was not a sparrel out come of Independence, but a milestone in a political fight which began two years ago, and may affect decisively the elections of this year. Negro suffrage became general in the United States in 1870. Between 1870 and 1920, a period of fifty years, the colored voters of the North voted solidly, stolidly and, to some extent blindly for the candidates of the Republican Party, or rather against the candidates named by the Democracists. In many Northern or Border States, notably Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey, Maryland, Kentucky, New York, Illinois, Delaware and West Virginia, their loyal and underlying support assured Republican success in many doubtful elections. They secured few appointments; their influence on Republican policies was small and in the Southern States they were practically disfranchised. The recurrence of lynchings in Southern States accompanied by many hideous barbarieties, in some cases by fligrant injustice, led Negro leaders to formulate their one and first demand upon the party which they had so long supported. This was the adoption of a law which would make the taking of human life whenever a Federal offense was committed. authorities were supine or accessory. The Republicans at the National Convention in Chicago which nominated Mr. Harding agreed to this demand and adopted, in their platform, a plank which the colored leaders accepted as a plebe to be carried out in good faith if a Republican Congress were chosen in November. The new Administration went into office early in January, but for nearly a month the colored leaders waited. Warned January 20, 1922, did the House of Representatives in response to insistent demand pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, Congressman Dyer, the author of the bill, is a St. Louis Republican who represents a constituency in which Negro voters are numerous. The action of the Republicans in passing the bill was repudiated by their Negro followers as bleated and the delay over its adoption as an evidence of bad faith. Hence their defection last year from the Republicans in New York City and in many other cities throughout the country and this year in Chicago, Kansas City, and Philadelphia. The Dyer Bill High consciousness and clarity do not always mark bills introduced into Congress. The Dyer bill is no exception. What it provides is this: The phrase "mob or riotous assemblage" used in the act means an "assemblage composed of three or more persons acting in concert for the purpose of depriving any person of his life, without authority of law, as a punishment for, or to prevent, the commission of some actual or supposed public offense." Such is the language of the statute. A mob of three persons would not be very formidable, and lynchings in the South do not usually occur to "prevent the commission of some act or compromised public conduct." The follow-up offense or there would be no reason for lynching. However, this is what is provided: "That if any State of county fails neglects or fails to source and maintain protection of any person within its jurisdiction against a such State or county shall by reason of such failure, neglect or criminal by deemed to have deed to such persons the equal protection of the laws." Any State or municipal officer charged with the duty, or who possesses the power or authority as such officer, to protect the life of any person that may be put to death by any mob or riotous assemblage, or who has any such person in his charge as a prisoner, fail, nagle, refuse to make all reasonable efforts to prevent such person from being put to death, or any State municipal officer charged with duty of apprehending or presenting such person, participating in such mob or rioting, or who fails apprehension or makes reasonable effort to perform the duty, in apprehending all persons participating shall be guilty of a felony and upon conviction shall be punished by imprisonment not exceeding five years or by a fine not exceeding 6,000 (or by The St. Louis Argus wise for the use of the United States. Such action is to be prosecuted by the District Attorney of the United States of the district where the lynching occurred. If such forfeiture is not paid upon recovery of Judgment, the Court has jurisdiction to enforce payment by execution upon any property of the county, or may compel the levy and collection of a tax. In the event that the person put to death shall have been transported from one county to another during the time intervening between his capitals putting to death, the county in which he is put to death will lonely and severely be liable to pay forfeiture. In construing the law the Dist of Columbia is deemed a country, as are each of the parishes of Louisiana. Whether the lynch will mitigate the evil of lynching by means either in the South or in other parts of the country is a matter of controversy, but that the colored voters of the country regard the failure of a Republican Congress to pass it as a breach of faith and a repudiation of the pleague given in the Republican National platform of 1920 there can be no doubt. From Cold Harbor to San Juan Hill and since colored soldiers in the uniform of the United States have acquired themselves creditably and with courage. Many of their leaders have come to look upon the action of the Republican Party, as two faced and recalling in this the lines of Klipstein's: "O' it Tommy this, the Tommy that on Friday, go away. But it's 'Thank you, Mister. Atkins, when the band begins to play.' Northern Demand That the demand for the adoption of the Dyer, bill or some similar measure is not limited to colored people, North and South, was demonstrated a short time ago when Senator Sedgur of Mass. muchuccheti presented petitions gummery signed by all of Boston. Rotbaty, Hoskidalea, Waymouth and Dor chester in Massachusetts. One of the petitions follows: To the United States Senators: The killing and burial alive of his man, belongs by mob in the United States is a response to country and the civilized world and threats organized government in the nation. Since 1889 there have been 3,443 known mob murders of the victims being women. In only a few instances has prosecution of the lynchers been even attempted. American mob murders 64 persons in 1921; of whom 4 were publicly burned at the stake. The House of Representatives on Jan. 26, 1922 in response to instict country-wide demand, passed Anti-Lynching bill that invoked the Federal Government to quell the infamy of American mob murder. This bill is now in the hands of the United States Senate. The under-signed United States citizens currently urge its prompt enactment. The House of Representatives passed the bill in January. On Jan. 30, and when it adjourned up August 15, final action had been taken upon it though the senate 'undersignatory Committee, by a vote of 10,000, hereby reported it.' It was understood, as reported in the Tins. Washington correspondence, that the Senate would allow this bill to die "because it stirred up so much feeling during its progress in the House." The sub-committee which had been considering the bill reported unfavorably upon it, and for months nothing was done, the Senators opposed to the measure having been assured by the Republican leaders that it would be police to let it remain in the Senate without litical parlance in the bill—the "bearer." 1.1. one branch of the Legislature approving which the other side tracks. There are more than ten times many Representatives as Senators to be voted for in November, and in many of the States where there are Senatorial elections it is believed by some of the Republican leaders that the "Negro vote" is not large enough to be formidable. Support of the Dyer bill is very general among colored men throughout the country, and among them there are opposition. George E. W. Whiseney, a representative man of his race and prominent in one of the Federal orders says: "I am very glad to give up apion on the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, and I thank The Times for the opportunity. I am of the opinion that the Senator who are opposed to the passage of the bill are more concerned about its enforcement (if it becomes a law) than they are about its constitutionality—knowing as they do that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments of the Constitution are being nullified, in many parts of the country. "The bill should pass no sooner as a Republican Party comes. The brutal and murderous crimes of coming spikes have caused the Express in all parts of the country. They are very much alarmed and they are changing it to the (Constitution of the State Plan) Published In The Interest Of Colored People FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH NOW CLEAR OF ALL DEBT Oldest Baptist Organization in The City, Ninety-Five Years in Existence, Has Mortgage Burning Ceremony. The First Baptist Church at Bell and Cardinal was more than crowded Sunday afternoon July 9, when the goal of its ninety-fifth year was celebrated by the burning of the mortgage and the cancellation of all standing financial obligations. The event was significant because this church is the oldest Baptist organization west of the Mississippi River. The record of its exaltation as a mission church shaves worshipped in an old blacksmith shop on Second street. It was what was known as a mission church then, but was officially organized in 1827 and took quarters on Almon, now Valentine Street, between Fourth and Broadway. Later, the First Baptist moved to 1820 Clark avenue where it remained until April 1918 and moved to the present location. During this almost a century of religious work it is said the congregation was never out of debt until last Sunday, and the event was celebrated with appropriate ceremonies and rejoicing the mortgage was burned by the old master, Mrs. Heurtletta Brooks, 82 years of age and the oldest, had not missed a service since she, was a child. Credit is freely given to Rev. O. C Maxwell, the pastor, for the congregation's financial freedom from debt, as the purchase of a church for $3,000 and the paying for same has been accomplished during his four years of service. The number of the Board of Trustees will be found on another pore in this issue. LANE TABERNACLE IS DAMAGED BY LIGHTNING Lane Tabornacle C. M. E.

July 18.—Theodore Milton Seldon, aged 24 years, a victim of the wreck on the Reading railroad at Winslow Junction last week, was identified by means of a Phil Beta Kappa key which lay beside his dead body. The inscription on the key was "T. M. Seldon. Dartmouth, 1921." When the key was found immediately following the wreck investigators supposed it belonged to one of the passengers and one unsuspected that it belonged to Seldon, who was employed as a porter on the train. A thorough investigation showed that the key belonged to Seldon a graduate of several institutions of learning, and an honor student at Dartmouth. He was a native of Norfolk, Va. and had attended Lincoln University graduating with honors and then entered Dartmouth in the class of 1921. It is said that all through his college career he had maintained the highest rank, and finally won the distinction of the Phil Beta Kappa. Seldon, according to reports, had worked his way through the various schools he had attended and was working as a porter on the Reading railroad to defray his school expenses for another year. MRS.

Church was a resident of Washington underwent an operation at John Hopkins Hospital. Baltimore. Her condition seemed to improve. But in response those closest to her noted a change. Robert R. Church, his mother and sister, were in 'constant attendance at the bedside of Mrs. Church whose death was a shock to the entire community, and in Memphis, the sad news could hardly be believed. Mrs. Church who at great personal sacrifice has been in Washington seated among her friends and in sharing political affairs in behalf of the race, has received word of sympathy from every part of the United States. Mrs Church was a most lovable disposition, and was greatly interested in charity and racial welfare. Bad is the day for any man when he becomes absolutely satisfied with the life he is living.

ST.LOUIS.MO.,FRIDAY.JULY14.1922 Negro Candidates In The Republican Race Some Of Whom Are Expected To Win. Sacks And Brewster, Candidates For U. S. Senate, Are Attracting Attention Of Voters. Kansas City Man Has Strong Backing In His Fight. Activities among the polluters are Third District. A strong effort is being made, more proclaimed this day. becoming more pronounced each day. Negro candidates are making a hard fight for elective officers. Walshall M. Moore, candidate for re-election to Missouri Legislature from the 3rd District is confident of "growing over" Crittenden E. Clark, who is a candidate for Justice of the Peace in the Fourth District is regarded as a sure winner. Mr. Clark is putting a reinight in the game. Clean and vigorous He is an able lawyer who has the respect of the bench and bar. His election will be an advance step for the race. Ell Taylor is also a candidate for Justice of the Peace. Two Justices are required to be compelled and elected. Two Compelled and elected There are eight candidates for constable in the Fourth District, four of whom are Negroes. Langton Harrison from the Sixth Ward seems to be the most popular candidate of them all. He is well known among the people of the District and enjoys the confidence and esteem of all who know him. He is regarded as a winner. Chas. H. Turpin, the present incumbent is making a fight for re-election. He is now serving his second term in the office. Nelson Hairston, "The Popular Choice" candidate declares he is winner in the contest. All he wants is a square deal. Mr. Hairston has betrayed backing than any other candidate. He is a well known churchman and Fraternal worker. John J. Edwards seems to be making what is known as a "sillful" it be hard to guess his strength at this time. Other Candidates Ira Dorsey Candidate for Constable in the Fifth District is in dead cornest, and is making a clean many fight Taking into consideration the large Negro vote in the District, it looks like Ira is a winner.

Y., July 12—The New York Herald quoted an article from The London Outlook, entitled "Frames and the Negro," saying "Frames—or at least Paris—today is full of plans to use the Moroccan and the Negro as bulwarks of, shall we say, in politics, a defense policy, and she is cultivation' the Negro in all kinds of ways. One incident, slight in itself but significant as a wind vane, is the fuss made of Kemarun's Rutataoue-Veritable Roman Negro—which has been awarded the Goncourt prize for 1921 and is published under the sponsorship of two distinguished French writers. The book really is a beauty book. It may depict faithfully the Negroes of French equatorial Africa, though some of the orgies it describes suggest rather the Negroes of Montmartre. "Apart from realism" carried into digging detail it has nothing to make it holdable." "These are a Negro and one of his wives with a taste for the French," a young Negro to complete the triumph of a little folklore (which seems to be folklore) and many orgies which give the impression, not so much of the African forests as of the queer places that are kept up in Paris for the deduction of foreign visitors. For the rest it is pan-Negro propaganda against the white man. "Yet Paris takes it up! It is a reclamation of the moment. "Only an incident, but a significant one. If France has the illusion to win and keep a great place in the world for France with the aid of Negroes she is doomed. I hope France will help him, but I don't think Paris bus it. The English friends of France should not hesitate to be canadid friends on this point." RENE MARAN'S BATOUALA IS A WONDERFUL BOOK RENE MARAN'S BATOUALA IS A WONDERFUL BOOK Not Propaganda. 'Nothing Written So Vividly Portrays The Life, Thought And Consciousness of Africans By GEO. U. CLOUD "Batouala" is translated into English. There arises occasionally an epocalyptic literary work, and Rene Mero, filmed by the writer Mero, has given the world a piece of literature which will be read 500 years from now. To Negroes who know nothing of their ancestry, "Batouala" will have an especial appeal. How often have we wondered, "What were our ancestors like? What were their thoughts and feelings that made them life. What was that moment they received at the hands of white men." These questions have never been answered. All that was known of African life has heretofore been written by white men with an eye to white and white men's reality. Nothing Mero wrote was true. Mero wrote that life. My thought the consciousness of Africans as does "Batouala." White men too will read "Batouala." Third District. A strong effort is being made in the District to defeat J. W. Shine the present incumbent because Shine did not keep his promise to appoint a Negro in his office. The Negroes pretty generally are supporting the Negro candidates. Of course, here and there a few of the slave-heart type, and a few of the "big IG" are doing as they have always done. But on the whole the Negroes will be William Sacks Speaks—Last night, William Sacks candidate for United States Senate addressed a large gathering at the Stars base bill park. He declared himself as being in favor of the Dyer Anti-lynching bill which is now before the United States Senate. He said he regarded the bill necessary to protect parts of this country. Brewster for Senate R. R. Brewster of Kansas City is making some headway in the interest of his Senate. After making two trips here meeting some of the follows, it is learned that Mr. Brewster will have a large following among the Negro voters of St. Louis. It being freely stated that he is the logical candidate. A Brewster for Senate, Club among Negroes will be organized. A hot fight between the Sacks and the Brewster forces. Mr. Brewster has declared himself in favor of the Dyer Anti-lynching bill which is now before the United States Senate. In a letter to the Editor of the Argus, Brewster has this to say: the United States Government can protect its citizens against violence upon foreign soil, certainly it can do so in America. "I am heartily in favor of the Dyer Anti-bitching Bill and am in sympathy with the thought that all laws should apply with equal force to those of every race, creed and color. The Colored race is entitled to receive of the state and nation equal protection of the laws, if I am elected to the Senate of the United States. I shall use my influence to see that such protection is provided for them"—R. R. Brewster. "ala." When Bob Burns said, "Oh, wad the gods some gifty glo' as we see oursils as thirds' see us" he voiced a real human plaint and wish and we have never seen Argyan green and white men's opera-boards make-believe so rawly stripped as by Batoufa, the African, tribal chief. With Maran we hear the goats hoop and the storm rage in a typical African scene so through his eyes into the minds of the eight wives of a powerful chief. We see primitive joyoushes and the lust of a strong joined people. Rene Maran is not a propagandist in "Batouala." One almost forgets Race when reading it. "Batouala" is a wonderful picture of a Thing. A great, glowering, red fanged Thing which lives on the souls and bodies of men. Africa is only the canvas upon which the painting is made. The greed of the jungle and the suffering of black bodies are merely so much more than the Thing. The nameless Thing which whitethousands begets forordained bastards, girls, a continent and throws a foul shadow all earth is the real picture one gets from the book, and its careful reading shows one's blood and stuns the brain with horror. Responses will have a task doing justice to "Batouala." No artist can adequately picture black night. THE MISSOURI NEGRO REPUB.

There is only one place in the world where you can live a happy life, and that is inside your house—Sun 12 PAGES "SQUARE DEAL TO ALL" PETER H. THEODORE-J. WOLFLEY Who Is A Criminal Affairs Attorney? QC THIS CITY Much comment has been heard concerning an article in the Star a few days ago signed by one Gates Hafflin attacking Mr. Wolffley because the latter is friendly reward the Negroes, and because he believes in a square deal to all regardless of race or color. In this article, Hafflin tries to show that Mr. Wolffley is unworthy of consideration because he supported Negro candidates, and in order to inject race prejudice into the matter the article charged that Mr. Wolffley had comitted the unpreromantic sin by believing in equal rights for Negroes in hotels and theatres. The Truth of the Matter It is true that Theodore J. Woffler has a deal of influence and a large following among the colored voters of the Seventeenth War because he is the only white man in the ward who has been big enough to declare and work for a square deal and equal political representation for Negroes in party councils. By doing this, he has made the followers of Frank Slater mad, and some of them have no hesitancy in saying so. It is further pointed out that in his activities in their behalf, the Negroes have received more political recognition during the past two years than any other man in the city or state. No white man in the city or state has done as much to help the cause of Negroes of the state politically as has Theo J. Woffler. Draws Sharp Distinction The article of *Huffin* draws a sharp contrast between committeeman Frank Slater and *Theodore* Wolffley. His charges against him (who are) the right for Negroes he fought for a *Negro Congressman*, for a Negro Justice of the Peace, and for a Negro-Committeeman." Huffin did not say that committeeman 'Slater' believes in any of the things with regards to the Negroes as credited in *Wolfley*. He says that Mrs. Fulks (who is a Negro Justice) by her associates. Inferring that Mrs. Fulks believes in everything that Wolfley believes in with reference to Negroes political rights in the Seventeenth ward. WOMAN CANDIDATE SPEAKS TO VOTERS The followers of Mrs. Elbridge Fulkens who is a candidate for Committeewoman for the Seventeenth Ward are making a strong fight for her election to succeed Frank M. Slater the present Committeeman. Mrs. Fulkens spoke to a large gathering at Union Memorial Church last Sunday. She says that she believes in justice and fair play to all. In her plan for honest elections, she won many to her way of thinking. She warned her hearers of their past experiences with Slater.

June 30, 1922 $ 220.38 The above account is the Building Fund and is in no way connected with the Current Fund, which pays the daily expense of the church. We, the officers and members of the Mother Church, at this time who so patriotically sent us in paying off this day in four (4) years and several days. We have been congratulated most heartily by our creditors and friends. We want you to know that when our Fourteenth street church property was condemned and ordered torn down 'there was no funds or hand, and the property, by reason of $8,000 mortgage on it, we let it go to the mortgage for settlement. Much credit is due our pastor, Rev. O. C. Maxwell, S. T. E., who stood at the helm of the Old Church and guided her to safety. All of the organizations in the church never ceased, to be at their posts of duty. We thank those who loaned us money and those who gave us church services. We will ever them in our memory. And all our friends—we want them to know that our doors are always open to you. Our services are filled with that lasting spirit that, after you have heard our pastor deliver his great sermon at 11 a. m. Sunday, you will crave to return. Our choir will heart-infused. The ushers are courteous and will always greet you with smile. At our last church meeting the Board of Trustees was ordered to let the contract for an up-to-date heating system and to plan that the building be painted inside and outside—all to be done by August 13, at which time the corner stone will be laid by the Grand Lodge of Masons, after which the building will be dedicated to the use of the Baptist faith. It seemed best to do those things after the building was owned and paid for. Up to this interview the church officers boast of not owing anyone— all bills; paid—and every Treasurer has a nice balance. Arain we thank everybody and you are welcome to visit us at all times. The pastor desires that all who attend service, and are not members, should not go away until they have shaken his "glad" hand. MARRIAGE LICENSES Annie H.

We are proud to find our Jack the victor, although his left wrist was put out of commission in the sixth round while winning. Jack Demppey, the world's heavyweight champion, appeared in exhibition. Well, the block dance and carnival is over. It was a success from all angles. From July 5 to 9, inclusive, Twenty-third street between Chestnut and Pine was the scene of activities staged by Calvin Hyde Post No. 194. It is impossible to estimate the amount of fun, but suffice it to say that more than 100 people passed through the turnstiles to the dance floor. The concessions were a howling bit of jolly humans from 7 t12 each night. The capital prize, a Maxwell comp automobile, was won on the first drawing by Mr. Luther De Claire, 2176 North Lefflingwil, Mr. Le Claire, being an official of the American Legion: promptly relieved such an embarrassing situation by acting the thoroughbred that he really was.

SAYS SOUTH'S DEPARTURE FROM THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE WAS CAUSE OF CIVIL WAR Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill. July 11.—In a public address delivered in Leon Maude assembly hall of the University of Chicago, Professor William E. Dodd of the history department, talked on Lincoln and the recently expressed southern charges that the Emancipator was responsible for the Civil War. "Home southerners," Prof. Dodd said, particularly the Daughters of the Confederacy, insist today as the leaders of the south did sixty years ago, that Abraham Lincoln was responsible for the Civil War and all its horrors. There are some northerners, particularly the reactionary party groups, who insist that Lincoln was wholly without responsibility for the catastrophe of 1851-63. "But neither the one side nor the other in this concession is right. Lincoln is one of the great democrats of American history in spite of the war between the north and the south, in spite of all the mistries that he and his fellows of both sides made in the crisis. "Lincoln sought it a time of peculiar national backsliding to bring the country back to its first great faith, the faith that all men are created free and equal—a great dogma that is not quite the fact. Because men of property in 1800 would not submit their rights of property to the will of simple majority there arose a crisis. The southerners had shandoned Jefferson. They said everywhere in 1700 that the Declaration of Independence was a fraud, a fallacy. They set up the contrary idea that inequality is the rule of life; they insisted that the owners of property should govern everywhere. That meant that the owners of slaves should govern in the rule of life; they insisted that the owners of property should govern everywhere. That meant that the owners of slave slaves should govern everywhere. STRAIT-TEX STRAITT A Refining and Straight Kinky or Coarse.

The team of Coleman and Johnson is yelling with the Gibson Trio for feature honors at the Booker Washington Theatre this week. Both are making decisive hits. Coleman and Johnson, man and wg man, are a musical pair. He with his violin and she in excellent voice open the act with a duet and immediately establish themselves in the hearts of the audience. This is followed by the two "Love Will Find A Way." A recitation a song and synecoptation in the violins are other single numbers. The "Jazz in Blues," song and danced, is a fitting finale and goes big. The Gibson Trio almost a quartette is last on the bill. As in their previous engagement, the center of the spot light is occupied by a little girl whose dancing is so out of the ordinary for one so young and always takes the house by storm. Her singing, expression and actions would do credit to most older performers of the present age. The Gibson Trio is proud of their song and dance numbers and a baby boy help to make the trio a over measure. The little girl dancer features the "Sheik" Song and dance finale by the trio. Josephine Leggott opens the show with three good song numbers including "They Needed A Song Bird In Heaven," and "Georgia Rose." She resists applause. Rhodes and Mitchell are second and start with a song and some park bench spacing that is amusing. A comical song by the man and a good number by the female member is brought to a climax with some spirited dancing. The combination of four acts make up an interesting and amusing show and the audiences are well pleased. The fifth round of "The Leather Painters" is as full of pop as its pre- decessors and that means the picture fans are being highly entertained. JACK "KINGER" WIGGINS ON NEXT WEEKS' B. W. BILL The Jack Wiggins Trio, featuring Jack "Ginger" Wiggins, will be the beginners on next week's yandville program at the Booker Washington Theatre. Wiggins has the reputation of being the world champion six minute book and wing dancer and always has a multitude of new and original steps to show. His part is coupled with songs and humor. Other acts on the bill will be Viney and Robinson, a smart tern; Mary Bradford, a good comeback; and Prof. L. S. King, Jr., a mind reader and magician, who tells you about your love affairs, business presents past and future. The sixth round of the speedy picture, "The Leather Pusher," will be shown all week. Monday will be "Play with usapu" and the patrons will draw their usapu to the amount of $5 or Eagle stamps to $40. "Why Announce Your Marriage" Andi "Foolish, Wives," Feature The Jestamere Program Fannie Hurst, St. Louis' famous woman novelist, started America society sometime ago with the announcement that though she and her husband had been married for years, they always lived apart, maintaining their separate establishments and bearing their names. The express purpose of permitting the happiness of their married life, Miss Hurst explained that their marriage not only did not concern their friend and the public, but also that she and her husband were complained that the average married couple so much of that it is but a matter of time before they become married. Away and leaves them both in a tired and bored attitude toward each other now a new philosophy: Why Announce Your Marriage" featuring Elaine Hammerstein, has been placed on the screen; and will be presented at the Jostamere Theatre this Saturday night. Aside from presenting this unusual story, the theater also incorporates much, much, and altogether proves a splendid vehicle for the talents of the star. On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, Carl Laemmie's costly human drama, *Foolish Wives* will be produced. It is said to have taken two years to produce and cost more than one million dollars, the tremendous drama of Monte Carlo, "the most sinners," is the result. Every smallest detail of the famous paradise is reproduced in "Foolish Wives"—the magnificent Casino, the Café de Paris the chateaux and villas, the gardens and the sed; the streets, the cosmos and the seas; the costumes their mode of life; the superstitions their intrigues, extravagances and adventures. Agnes Ayre* Paramount picture, "The Ordeal" will be presented at the Cunet Theatre Saturday. This picture has many unusual touches. It is a strikingly dramatic story revolving about the whirlpool of trouble stirred up by the vicious will of a dead husband. On Sunday, Wallace Reid will be seen in "Axes over the Continent." This is an automobile picture filled with thrills and unique situations. It is an automobile story built upon nerve perhaps the greatest example of which is the entry of a fliver in a great worm. It is a picture which immortalises the poor man's car. The feature at the Connet next Thursday and Friday will be "The Right of Way". The story is built up from a list of prison events, all filled with rebellion and interest. The various events in the story are tied to gether by the characters, that play the leading roles. The lives of two boys one rich and the other poor are followed from childhood. Their contrasting situations and views are exposed their workhouse exiled.

It is a unique achievement in films. It possesses a brand new idea—striking, amazing. Also it performs the seemingly impossible exploit of conveying by motion pictures the impression of sound and hearing Footfalls is based upon the story of the 1920s novel Daniel Steele, which was awarded the Henry Committee short story prize for 1920. It deals with a blind cobble whose acute sense of hearing enables him to recognize the footfall of every resident of the little New England fishing village where he lives and works. Furthermore, the footfalls of his son and other inmates reveal to him changes of mind—disesthetic, anger, joy. In the later scene the blind cobbler listens constantly, eagerly, for the footfalls of a murderer returning to the scene of his crime, knowing they will come. On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday; Mag Murray will be seen in *Fascination* 'most of the science are laid in Spain'.

"The Clean Up "And The Power Within" At The Olympia Anti Stewart in "A question of Hpor will be the feature at the Olympia Theatre this Saturday. The story centers around a huge irrigation project in which a dam is the salient point of conflict between land owners who seek to protect their property and rail road interest that strive to acquire the ground for a right way. Anita Stewart gives an exceptionally capable performer and is a delight in the eyes in her backskin garb of the west. On Sunday, William Fairbanks will be playing western drama "The Clean Up." The big feature for next Thursday will be "The Power, Within." Its central figure is a man who claims to be master of his own destiny, but who falls when he forgets. God and rises when he learns to say "Thy Will be done." Job Armstrong is a successful man. He started with nothing but strength; health and unbound faith himself, and he rose to great heights. His material things of this world were, his material things of this world were, his reverence, agility. Then came losses, rebellion. That have I done that those that happen to ME? he asked, as so many have asked before him. In his eyes he was a virtuous man. Did he not love his neighbor and his family? Was he not gronkly charitable? It was not until everything was taken from him that he leaped from whence came the power within himself that he called faith.

It is a blood-striking narrative with telling moments of romance. The story offers excellent opportunity to dramatic fervor. The capable cast includes "Billy" Reid, son of the Wallace Helds; Claudie Williams; William Donovan. Phil Gastrock, Pigott Fogert, Bert Mattox, and Al-Win. "Fascination," the latest Mac Murray production, which is presented by Robert Z. Leonard, reveals the famous star in the most ambiguous of her roles. No other character that she has portrayed requires as much difficult emotional acting as "Fascination," which will be seen at the Lincoln Theatre this Saturday and Sunday. As the impatient daughter of a Spanish-American bachelor who becomes fascinated by a handsome boy, she captures a lovely, new character, and helps the screen a dramatic story for whose intensity, would be difficult to surprise. The story is told with all the romance and flavor of old Smith. "The Good-Bad Wife" will be featured at the Lincoln on next Thursday. It is intended to illustrate concretely and humorously the belief has been reeled into through the protoplay, that "there is a little bit of bad in the best of us and a little bit of good in the word of us" only there is more good than bad in "The Good-Bad Wife" as the happening of the picture has many lamentations and triumphs in the tribulations, indicates. The photophyth has been charmingly developed to appeal to both sexes of every age, and provides a photophyth that varies from himse to pathes and from frequently to infrequently, and "is intriced, much of interest."

Y., July 12—Muse Cole-Talbert, one of the chief artists, to record for the Black Swan Records, recently scored such a big hit before a large white audience that Rex G. White of the Detroit News, made favorable reference to this wonderful singer in following fashion: "Florence" Cole-Talbert, declared by many to have a void, rivalling Gall-Curel, was the star of the evening. This brilliant singer found difficulty in getting away from her audience although she obliged with four numbers. Her voice is a soprano of great range and sweetness, her vocal flexibility is marked and gives ease and clarity to her utterance. She made a tremendous hit with her audiences." That the music loving public appricates high class music as well as "blues" is being evidence by the big demand made since June for "The Bell Song" and "The Kiss" which numbers Mune, Talbert recorded for the Pace Photograph Corporation.

Agricultural Department more than 14,000 Negro farmers in Southern states raised 90,000 acres of corn, and the average yield was 35 bushels to the acre. It is said that the work was done under the general supervision of state agricultural colleges and government farm extension workers. It is estimated that a larger acreage for 1922 has been planted and the crop for this year will exceed 90,000 acres. SUPREME LIFE INSURANCE CO. Celebrates 1st ANNIVERSARY Preston News Service. COLUMBUS, Ohio July 14—An intrepiding and unique program was carried out here on July 12th and 13th in celebration of the first anniversary of the Supreme Life and Casualty Company of which Tr. I. Gibson is president. Among the prominent out-of-town speakers appearing on the program were: Hon. B. W. Gearheart, superintendent of insurance for the State of Ohio; Hon. Harry H.

Wilson Lowell, president First Standard Bank, Louisville, Ky., and many others. The excelsives were held in the auditorium of the Chamber of Commerce building. A basket plein was held at Grundy park and a twopeon was also given. The affair was a grand success. "Those Democrats seem to believe that voting a Republican ticket means political office for the Negro in the South and consequently Negro domination. The white man of the South does not oppose, the Negro in his professional and business aspirations, and colored business men and professional men are quite successful there." "I think President Harding sensed that condition of his speech at Birmingham. Ala., when he suggested political independence on the part of the Negro in the South. Some Negro leaders argue: 'Why continue our loyalty further?' They say, that they have carried onto their political burden long enough ever since the Civil War, and they have been betrayed all of that time since the Administration of President Hayes.

Another advocate of the Dyer bill, which does not lack supporters, is the head of the Catholic colored missions of the United States, Mat. John B. Burke, who speaking to a Times representative said: "Condition South regarding lynching have been so steadily growing, very fast that we are indeed in favor of the Anti-Lynching bill. I would take to inhuman to feel otherwise. To give us from such a diagrace in our country it is time for the Federal Government to take the bull by the home to design the lynching monster.

"Kent after year Congress is lax into passing laws which are manifestly unconstitutional, and if it does so to be a justified extreme opportunity that the Congress should dismiss the Congress and leave the District Court to proceed."

States by the Federal invasion of the of the States by the Federal Government, and by Republican lawyers in the Senate that the Gill is unconstitutional, Senator Borah of Idaho, one of these opponents, said on June 11: "For twenty years we have been compriming with our oaths and passing child-birth laws in vain.

It involves a change in our whole theory of Government." Some Republicans in Washington say that the adoption of the Dyer bill would be of no benefit to the Negro population of the country, but a setback to them because its enforcement would be suspended and until the constitutionality of the law would be passed upon by the Supreme Court, which would be certain to declare it void, and the agitation stirred up by the bill would probably lead to other manifestations of mob violence and race prejudice. The supporters of the measure increased at each criticism. If the United States government, they say, can go into a locality to prosecute a man for having ingrificating liquor in a flask or on a sideboard or in a collar, it certainly has constitutional power enough to go into a locality where men are roasted alive without warrant of law or pretence of legality as a penalty imposed by individuals in disregard of the constitutional safeguards: "In all criminal prosecutions the accused shall enter the right to a court and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been prosecuted by law, and in no instance of the nature and course of the crime to be committed by the State." MISSOURI PRESS ASSOCIATION ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS NATIONAL NEGRO PRESSS ASSOCIATION Foreign Advertising Representatives W. R. Ziff Co., 608 South Dearborn St., Chicago, Ill. A BIG QUESTION BEFORE THE NATION In speaking of the anti-lynching bill which is now before the United States Senate, Representative Dyer said: "There is no bigger question before the Nation." We quite agree with Mr. Dyer's assertion that there is no bigger question before the Nation, but will add, there should not be a bigger question before the nation. The protection of life and the pursuit of happiness-is an important part of organic laws of this land. The framers of the United States constitution so recognized the duty of the U. S. and did write it into that document. The Senate couldn't render the Nation a greater service at this time, than to pass and enforce the anti-lynching bill. No where in the civilized world are people lynched, burned at the stake, and tortured in the most barbaric way as they are in America. The practice gives the lie to expression of lofty ideals based upon our sense of justice and fair play. This is no time to quibble and split hairs over which method should be used to put a stop to lynching, the thing to do, is to act upon the bill which is now before the Senate, and if that is found inadequate additional laws should be passed. WILL THE SCHOOL BOARD ACT? The Board of Education took no action Tuesday eve on the proposition submitted by the Central School Patrons Association with reference to a high school east of Grand Boulevard, because the Superintendent of Instruction failed to recommend what action should be taken. It should not be taken that Dr. Maddox is hostile or prejudice against the proposition because he has not made the recommendations as speedily as has been hobed for. It may be that he is honestly and conscientiously working out every detail of the plans etc. before he submits it to the Board. We are quite sure that there can be no doubt in the mind of the Superintendent but that the demand for a high school east of Grand is backed with justice and fairness. This every fair minded person, both men and women, white and colored will admit. And just why the board keeps dilly-dallying over the proposition we confess, does call for some speculation. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch in a recent editorial pointed out the duty of the Board of Education towards the proposition when it said: Education For the Colored The Board of Education has recognized the need of increased high school facilities for colored pupils by declaring its intention to build an addition of 12 rooms to Sumner High School at a cost of $70,000. The present complaint of the Negro population, as we understand it, is that this would be doing the right thing in the wrong place. All the schools, both white and colored, are crowded. The Negroes ask no preferment. They ask only that, so long as their facilities are being expanded, they be expanded where they are most useful and economical for the people to be served. Sumner School is so far from the center of the population served that it requires a cross-town car ride and a change of cars for nearly every pupil attending. It is the antithesis of a scientific arrangement and a burden on education; since it levies an extra tax of 14 cents a day in car fare on the bulk of the pupils served. It needlessly consumes the pupils' time and swallows the stream of traffic on the city's busiest thoroughfares. The colored spokesmen, also ask for a separate normal school and teacher training on a parity with the whites. Certainly this request is reasonable, because the colored children are entitled to well-trained teachers. There can be no right or satisfactory answer to the Negroes' appeal for justice and equity but justice and equity. The Negro is a taxpaying citizen. This holds true whether he owns a home, rents one or rents only a room. He pays his fax and is entitled to his share in education. This is the side merely of justice. The side of social and civic welfare is that education improves the quality of citizenship and reduces poverty, delinquency and crime. It is the duty of the Board of Education to the white population of St. Louis as well as the colored to deal justly and helpfully in providing educational facilities for the colored population. Mr. Sacks says that Mr. Brewster is the candidate of the Kansas City Star, former Governor Herbert Hadley, National Committeeman J. L. Babler, Walter S. Dickey, Chas. D. Morris, Governor Hyde and the State Committee. Surely with all of that support, Brewster is a winner.—Get in the band wagon boys. Its easy to render an excuse but it requires willing hands to perform one's duty. If you want a little more light upon the subject, dig a little deeper. If the energy spent by some people trying to keep from doing an honest days work, was used in production, they would be masters instead of servants. Don't kid yourself. The people who move in your little world are "clocking you." Not "what am I getting" but rather "what am I giving." After all, most people get just about what they deserve. It is said, "The mind is the standard of man."—What size is your mind? vital means of putting the facts before the world in a true light 'the French Army African soldiers plan missionary work and have just completed a motion picture which will be shown throughout Europe and the United States as well. The Germans have persistently attempted to culminate our African soldiers, and it is necessary to rehabilitate them," declares the Paris Ex- celeror, a leading French newspaper. It is said that a committee of Negro troops, presided over by General Archnair, has just finished editing a special film which will show, without exaggeration, the Senegalese and their African brethren exactly as they are. The French are particularly anxious that the war be ended in this respect as during the war they were exceedingly active in spreading propaganda to discredit Negroes. The film, it is claimed, is intended especially for America and is practically finished. John Wanamaker was waited upon by a committee of Colored ministers. Colored people in a city where 150,000 of the Race lived wanted that America's greatest retailer employ some colored clerks, bookkeepers, etc. Mr. Wanamaker said: "It is true, as you say, that my stores are supported a good deal by colored people, and I appreciate it. When they come in here they are served and charged just the same as any other people and they would not come in here if I did not give them the care attented at the price they feel is right. As far as employing them in the capacities you mention, I will make a proposition with you:—this committee can go out from there, each, or all of you start a business and for every member of your race employed in a given capacity by any or all of you I will employ two." Nothing more has been heard from the committee. We are in the third generation from slavery. A comparison of our wealth fifty years ago and now is gratifying, very. No race of people could have accomplished more with as little equipment as did the second generation of Colored American freemen. The third generation, however, does not know the history of the whole country, to be doing all that could be properly expected. We should be able to call bluffs like Wannaker's. Encouragement? A Birmingham "Doctor" by virtue of a rusty Prince Albert coat and a rather constant command of words once said in addressing a meeting of ex-soldiers: "Our young men do not need criticism, they need encouragement," which is well to a certain point. Deserved commendation for tasks well done is one thing: a self-satisfaction to the point of indifference when tasks are poorly done is another. Men who are satisfied with injustice or indifferent to it are not worthy of full presentation. If the fault is with the individual the individual needs correction. What race of men beside Negroes would be satisfied with our condition and status in the United States? What other race would continue depriving on charity when possessed of the power and ability to demand its rightful place? Most men believe that the solution of our problem will be found only in our financial independence. Although we are possessed of near two billion in money and properties we are far from financially independent. It is probably too early in our real development to expect a distressed man to be able to sell his assets from which we suffer should be our greatest asset in developing this strength. If a colored man opens a grocery store across the street from the store of a member of any other race he is certain of surpass if he runs as good a store as clearly and sells his merchandise as cheaply as his competitor. In several years observation of the writer has learned that invariably when a colored tradesman claims that he is not supported by the race with the merchant. His orders are either higher, hist is drier or, his manner less attractive than his competitor. Competition. Whether it is a boot black stand or a blank, colored peoples' businesses are on a competitive basis with every other business of a like nature. If a colored banker cannot give his depositors good security and confidence that a white banker does, he will fall. If a colored boot black cannot shine shoes as well and at as low a rate as the Greek boot black the Greek will get the business. For example: In a large city there is, on one corner a colored ownel drug store, and a white owned man sells a piece of gold he makes twice the profit the white man does but the white man has five patrons to the colored man's one. When you buy a dollar's worth from the colored man you get eighty cents worth of goods and twenty cents worth of race pride. The white man is selling nothing but merchandise and is succeeding. The market is not very strong for race pride. THE CALLS' LINOTIFE OPERATOR MARRIES Kansas City, Mo. At the home of the bridegroom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. H.

It was a home wedding of sweet simplicity witnessed by the family connection and a few friends. Rev. D. A.

REV. T. J. MOPPINS WANTS RACE MEN CANDIDATES REV. T. J. MOPPINS WANTS RACE MEN CANDIDATES Scores Breckhurd Long On Hare Prelude And Takes Shot At MINE BUTCHERY VERDICT The verdict rendered by the coroner's jury in Williamson county, Illinois, in the case of the wholesale slaughter of strikebreakers by union miners, is entirely in keeping with the general course pursued by the officials of the county through the whole terrible business. "We find that the deaths of the decedents were due to acts of adultery and indirect, of officials in each individual case," the Company in each individual case" the verdict was: "Came to his death by gunshot wounds at the hands of persons unknown." This verdict deserves to rank with that of a coroner's jury in Iowa. A mob rushed into a court, seized a prisoner, placed a rope around his neck, dragged him out into the courthouse yard and swung him to a limb. The verdict was: "Came to his death by breaking his neck by falling down the court house steps." Abused and non-suicidal as it seems, that Iowa verifies that a man not one whit more idle than the verdict just rendered by Williamson county, Illinois, by a jury made up of union miners and men under the direct influence and control of union miners. The whole proposition is a terrible travesty on justice, and aggravates the stupendous crime of which the great commonwealth of Illinois is the principal victim—censor. Everybody seems to think work is an outrage. It isn't: the world over men probably get more enjoyment out of their work than they get out of anything else. A mechanic I know has more contracts than any other in. And the contracts are usually the big ones, those entitled to skill, the most intelligent attention. Don't you suppose this man finds a good deal of comfort in the reputation the papers and the people are giving him? . . . Poor work is disgusting, but good work is a source of pleasure and satisfaction to the man credited with it. — Ed Howe Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -How to Enforce the Judgment Against Strong Drink. 1. Beishazzar's Impious Peast (vv. 1-4). 1. Who attended (vv. 1, 2). Betshazar, bis wife and concubines and a thousand of his lords. 2. Behavior threat. (vv. 3, 4). (1) They drank wine; they engaged in revelry. (2) They committed sacrilege. In their drunken revelry, they drank wine out of the sacred vessels which had been taken out of the temple, of the house of God, which was at Jerusalem. When men are under the influence of intoxicating liquors they lose all regard for sacred things. (3) They worshiped idols. They prayed to gods of gold and of all, of brass, of iron, wood and stone. 11. The 'Handwriting on the Wall' (vv. 5-16). 1. The time of (v. 5). It occurred in the same hour in which they were engaged in their drunken revelry. 2. The effect upon the king (v. 9). He was greatly disturbed; he was seized with consternation. "The Joints of his loins, were loosed, and his knees smote one against another." 3. The king's behavior (vv. 7-16). (1) He called forth astrologers and sagewyners, offering rewards of gold and position (vv. 7-19). Their utter inability to interpret the writing left the king even worse perplexed. (2) Daniel brought at the suggestion of the queen (vv. 10-16). The queen here was perhaps the wife of Nebuchadzezer, who remembered Daniel's service in interpreting his dream. For that reason he was sent for and promised great reward. III. Daniel interprets the Writing (vv. 17-28). 1. Daniel's address to the king (vv. 17-24). He brushes aside his promised gifts (vv. 17). He would not have his speech limited by the king's gifts. 2. The interpretation of the writing (vv. 25-28). (1) "Mene" means "numbered" (vv. 28). "God both numbered the kingdom and finished 44." (2) "Keel" means "welcomed" (vv. 27). "Thou art welcomed in the balances, and art found wanting." (3) "Heres" means "divided" (vv. 28). "Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians." IV. The Judgment Executed (vv. 29-31). In that night was Belshazzar stalk and Darius the Median took the kingdom. The Chaldean dynasty ended with Belshazzar. So we may interpret this whole scene as pointing to the conditions at the close of the times of the Gentiles and as adumbrating the prevailing conditions. Let us note: 1. The stupidity of men. They, like people today, would not learn by axe. They have deterred Helfhazzar from such frivolity. 5. Blasphemous sacrilege. And may not the sacrilege of today be in excess of theirs, exposing itself in (1) a profession of religion for pecuniary gain, social and political preferment; (2) use of the pulpul and of the ministry for display and notoriety, even for the propagation of false doctrine; (3) unliking with the church, attending the communion, so as to cover up secret sins; (4) the use of the Word of God to give point to a joke; (5) denying that the Bible in God's Word, making it a book of errors, myth and legends; (6) sneezing at the Virgin birth, repudiating Christ's dely and setting aside His vicarious atonement.

We go away without having accomplished any work." The meeting was opened "Tuesday by Bishop Chappellee into A. M. E. Church. Later on in the day Bishop Caldwell of the diocese connection, took the chair, accredited commissioners. Since there were to be only eight delegates from each examination, in fact there were here seven of the C. M. E. bishop; one the A. M. E. and five A. M. E. against the bishop, there were brought up of several offences such as saloons of the institution of paper, educational and spiritual formation, etc. from each examination. Most of the A. M.

See That Your Advertisement Appears In This Paper PART TWO HOW TO SECURE PASSAGE OF DYER ANTI-LYNCH BILL Who can doubt that if any considerable number of the 15,000,000 citizens of our race in this country would unite in solemn vow: "Not to eat an insane bread" or to indulge in the luxury of amusements, say for a month, before the month was over there would be such a clamour from the amusement companies and other interest affected by this covenant of sacrifice, that the senators at Washington would be glad to pass this measure? Along with this, if every church over this broad land where American citizens of color meet to worship God would toll its bell (if it has one) or fly "Old Glory" at half-mast, or drape its altar with crape the Sunday following, when each pastor would also preach a sermon from some one of the hundreds of verses which condemn the oppression of the weak: If one or all of these suggestions were followed, it would create such a public sentiment against the lynching evil as to give it its death blow. willing to do to do much for themselves! But as long as we can dance, patronize the剧院, etc., and laugh and be gay white our brethren are being hanged burned alive and otherwise tortured and their flesh given for souvenirs to crime hardened sex, just so long will the dominant race take us as a "joke," and the ruthless slaying of one or more will be regarded as, to quote the substance of an editorial in a recent copy of a Texas paper, a "mere season" incident." That this indifference on our part is being taken as an evidence of disregard for our own rights is shown by an utterance of a member of the Ku Klux Klan, reported in the Associated Negro Press dispatches, in which he said: "This is a white man's country and we are checking up or you while you are dreaming and having a good time." Let us show by a nation-wide self-denial drive that we are fully awake to the need of the hour. THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE M. B. DR. C. M.

HAWAIIAN RACE NOT DYING OUT; BUT MARRYING OUT. Preston News Service WASHINGTON, D. C. July 16—Miss M. H. Lemon, registrar of vital statistics in Honolulu, T. H., says "The Hawaiian race is not dying out as is generally supposed and reported, but is in reality marrying out of existence." During the fiscal year 1921, there were 160 marriages between pure Hawaiian couples. In addition to these, 58 Hawaiian men married women of other races and 142 Hawaiian women were married to men of other groups. "It will be seen readily that the practice will tend to increase the pure Hawaiian population and at the same time decrease the pure Hawaiian population in so far as the future is concerned," she said. For United States Senator William Sacks REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES AUG.1,1922 The lynching of citizens by armed mobs must be stopped. It has been a disgrace to our country for years. Thousands of innocent men and women have been done to death in the most barbarous manner, and their murderers have gone unpunished, though everyone knew the guilty persons. In the states where lynching is most prevalent the authorities have taken no steps to prevent it. They talk, and that is all. All these states have stringent laws against these shameful acts, but rarely, if ever, are any steps taken to enforce them. The governors are empowered to call on their national guardsmen. Their sheriffs and county authorities have the full weight of the law behind them, but they do nothing. In such a case, where the states fall down, the national government must step in to protect its citizens. Primarily every citizen of this country owes allegiance first to the national government, then to the state in which he resides. Likewise, every citizen of this country has the right to look to the national government to protect him. In his constitutional guarantees of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, men are accustomed to direct modern methods an to the careful use of money. They will get the country out of its many difficulties without need less additional laws. What we need is not more laws so that all people may understand. A change in the Volstead law is absolutely necessary and should be bead at once. Throughout the country the sentiment of the labor demands it. The farmers demand it. The closing of the breweries has thrown out of work thousands of men. Millions of bushels of grain formerly sent to the breweries now have been dumped on the general market, forcing down prices to the farmer. A well organized minority under the guise of law enforcement is breaking down the constitution of our government. Every day we read of homes bein The tax payer's money is being wasted by Congress. Our taxes now are higher than ever, and reduction in sight. The membership of the present Senate and House of Representatives is made up principally of lawyers. Out of 519 members, 325 of them are practicing lawyers. Lawyers are not primarily business men. The proof of this fact lies in the law courts of today with their out of date methods, clogged up so they can hardly function. Our country is purely a commercial and industrial nation. As such, its laws should be made principally by representatives from the business and agricultural classes, also the manufacturers. Business Vote For C. D.

All stringent laws against those shameful if ever, are any steps taken to protect governors are empowered to call guardsmen. Their sheriffs and co- have the full weight of the law they do nothing. In such a case, where the state national government must stop citizens. Primarily every citizen owes allegiance first to the nation then to the state in which he resides citizen of this country has the right national government to protect his national guarantees of life, liberty and happiness. The tax payer money is being gross. Our taxes now are higher reduction in sight. The membership of the present of Representatives is made up prime Out of 519 members, 225 of them lawyers.

If he thinks everyone is his friend, he will treat them right, unconsciously, and they soon will be his friends.

What we need is not more laws, but to make those we have more simple and direct, so that all people may understand. A change in the Volstod law is absolutely necessary and should be had at once. Throughout the country the sentiment of the people is for beer and light wine. Organized labor demands it. The farmers demand it. The closing of the breweries has thrown out of work thousands of men. Millions of bushels of grain formerly sent to the breweries now have been dumped on the general market, forcing down prices to the farmer. A well organized minority under the guise of law enforcement is breaking down the constitution of our government. Every day we read of homes being searched and property seized. The man who raises his vote against the Volstod net is threatened and abused. They are attempting to deny the right of free speech. A wave of crime is sweeping over the country. The attempts to enforce the Volstead act have aroused a resentment in the people. The law is openly defied; and by men and women to whom others look for guidance. What kind of an example is this for the young generation growing up? If nominated and elected to the Senate, Mr. Saacks will bend his every effort and work unceasingly for a change in the Volstead act permitting the manufacture and consumption of beer and light wine. 1 WILLIAM SACKS men are accustomed to the careful use country out of its less additional laws but to make those so that all people n A change in the cessary and should country the sentinel light vine.

E. preached three splendid sermons. He administered the Holy Communion in the afternoon. The collection for the day was the largest in the history of our little church. $30.00. We have only 15 members. The good people of St Marys certainly know how to entertain visitors. After the morning service they served a sumptuous dinner under canvas on the church ground. The supply who so plentiful that after all were filled, enough remained for another dinner. While all did their best to make the meeting a success, too much credit cannot be given to Mr. and Mrs. Evans, who inaugurated the meeting and also are the founders of the church CAFE 618ARDEAU DISTRICT CONFERENCE, SUNDAY SCHOOL MISSIONARY & A.

Hence the Justice should be a man of high standing and of legal ability. Mr. Clark entered the race after due and careful consideration of just what it would mean to himself and the colored people of the city to have one of their race on the bench. Mr. Clark is charitably disposed, being a large contributor to the Y. M. C. A., the Orphan Home and other institutions. His brilliant record as Grand Master of Masons stands unqualified. its membership having doubled in the three years he has been Grand Master, and from a deficit of several thousand dollars, he retires a year with a Cash Balance on hand of fifty thousand dollars after all claims of every nature have been paid. Aside from this fact, Mr. Clark, as a lawyer, is fully qualified to bring honor and efficiency to the office. Compare his qualifications with the other candidates for that office and judge for yourself. He completed his legal education at the Washington University Law School of this city, and was admitted to practice on January 25th 1897, and has practised his profession, continuously since that time. In the trial of cases that come before the Justice of the Peace, cool judgment is necessary, and one should be versed in the law. The cases tried are generally those of the poorer people, where the judgment is final and the cost of appeal, is so great that few can The Fourth District comprises the first sixteen precincts of the Sixth Ward, first eleven Precincts of the Seventeenth Ward, and Precinct No. 7 of the 16th Ward.

WOLFLEY, Secretary; BYRON F. BABBITT, Treasure ADVERTISEMENT If you want a HIGH SCHOOL FOR COLORED STUDENTS, located in the Seventeenth Ward east of Grand Avenue, VOTE FOR MRS. ELBRIDGE FULKS for Seventeenth Ward, member of the Republican City Committee. Mrs. Fulks is pledged to use all the power at her command, as member of the committee, to get this school for you. Mrs. Fulks, as the only woman on the committee, will stand for things in which women of the entire city are interested, GIVING HER AN INFLUENCE IN SHAPING PARTY POLICIES, AND IN BEHALF OF THE WARD WHICH SHE REPRESENTS, MUCH GREATER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER MEMBER OF THE COMMITTEE. A VOTE FOR MRS. FULKS IS A BOOST FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL and to vote for Mrs. Fulks just SCRATCH THE NAME OF FRANK M. SLATER at the bottom of your ballot. If you want a member of the committee that will be the PARTY SERVANT AND NOT THE PARTY BOSS of Republican voters in the ward, VOTE FOR MRS. ELBRIDGE FULKS for Seventeenth Ward member of the Republican City Committee. Mrs. Fulks will demand that the ward be given the recognition to which it is entitled in the distribution of proper public patronage, but WILL ASK THE REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION IN THE WARD TO SAY TO WHOM THESE PLACES SHALL GO. The election of Mrs. Fulks means that the ward organization in every precinct on both sides of Grand Avenue must be consulted in the distribution of city jobs. If you want to give deserving party workers, heretofore ignored, a chance, SCRATCH THE NAME OF FRANK M. SLATER at the bottom of your ballot. WHEREAS: We, the "Seventeenth Ward Committee of 132", representing the Republican voters of that ward, assert our belief in honest and clean municipal government, demand that every voter shall have the right to cast one ballot and have that vote counted as cast, and repudiate domination of the party ward organization for corrupt and selfish purposes; and WHEREAS: Frank M. Slater, member of the Republican City Committee for the old Seventeenth Ward, who was ousted from the office of Public Administrator, after the disclosure of election frauds perpetrated in the ward in his behalf, is a candidate for election to the committee representing the new Seventeenth Ward; and WHEREAS: A stream cannot rise above its fountain head and a ward party organization and its principles cannot be better than the individuals who compose and dominate that organization; therefore, be it RESOLVED: That we are opposed to the election of Frank M. Slater as a member of the Committee for the new Seventeenth Ward, such opposition being based upon his record, which is undesirable; and be it further RESOLVED: That we favor and endorse the election of Mrs. Elbridge Fulks, to succeed Frank M. Slater as a member of the Republican City Committee, and pledge our support to her for the following reasons: We want to remove the stigma of political fraud that has caused residence in the Seventeenth Ward to become a city-wide reproach. We want to abolish a fraudulent political system that has done more, and if permitted to exist will continue to do more, to depreciate the value of property in the Seventeenth Ward than a permanent pestilence. The Seventeenth Ward is the geographical center of the city. Its location near the business center and its adequate transportation facilities, its many churches, THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, JULY 14, 1922 ADVERTISEMENT people's Cand THE WOMEN'S LIBRARY Mrs. Elbridge Fulks CANDIDATE FOR MEMBER Of The Republican City Committee SEVENTEENTH WARD PRIMARY ELECTION AUGUST 1st, 1922 For Better Recognition For Truer Representation Fulks Stands For Th hotels, apartment houses and splendid residence boulevards and streets should, and would, invite under improved ward political conditions the highest type of citizenship. We stand for conditions that will promote civic, and educational development in the Seventeenth Ward. A Masonic Temple, to be one of the most imposing in the world, is in course of construction, while the homes of clubs and a great University are located just west of Grand Avenue; and we stand for the removal of the blight that present political conditions in the Seventeenth Ward, cast upon these institutions. The beautiful Y. M. C. A. Building on Pine Street, east of Grand Avenue, is a monument that stands for the sobriety, morality and industry of the colored race, although colored voters in the Seventeenth Ward, under present political conditions, are denied the right to have their votes counted as cast. We stand for the election of a member of the Republican City Committee to represent the Seventeenth Ward in the Republican Party councils pledged that the ballot of every voter, both white and colored, in the ward will be counted as cast. We stand for a modern and thoroughly equipped high school for colored students to be located in the Seventeenth Ward, east of Grand Avenue, so that succeeding generations may not only have their ballots counted as cast, but may cast intelligent ballots. We believe that members of the party committee should be the servants and not the bosses of the Republican voters in their respective wards. We stand for the election of a member of the Committee to represent Republican voters of the Seventeenth Ward in the Republican City Committee pledged to represent all of them and not just himself, relatives and personal friends. WARD COMMITTEE OF 132 FOR MRS. ELBRIDGE FULL LLHORN, Chairman; T. J. WOLFLEY, Secretary; BYRON P. BABBITT, Tr ADVERTISEMENT IF YOU WANT YOUR BALLOT COUNTED AS CAST in the Seventeenth Ward for candidates of your choice for JUSTICES OF THE PEACE AND CONSTABLES in the Fourth District VOTE FOR MRS. ELBRIDGE FULKS for Seventeenth Ward member of the Republican City Committee. Mrs. Fulks is pledged that the ballot of every voter in the Seventeenth Ward, both white and colored, must be counted as cast. MRS. FULKS STANDS FOR HONEST ELECTIONS AND FOR EQUAL AND EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL, REGARDLESS OF RACE, CREED, SEX OR COLOR. A VOTE FOR MRS. FULKS IS A DEMAND FOR A SQUARE DEAL. If you want a square deal SCRATCH THE NAME OF FRANK M. SLATER at the bottom of your ballot. If you want the Seventeenth Ward east of Grand Avenue to become a CIVIC, CHURCH AND SCHOOL CENTER, and because of that the most desirable colored residence section in St. Louis, VOTE FOR MRS. ELBRIDGE FULKS for Seventeenth Ward member of the Republican City Committee. Mrs. Fulks stands for principles that mean better houses, better streets and better citizenship, encouraged by such improved conditions. A VOTE FOR MRS. FULKS IS A VOTE FOR A BET- TER HOME for your family and if you want to vote for Mrs. Fulks SCRATCH THE NAME OF FRANK M. SLATER at the bottom of your ballot. We want a member of the Committee who will demand that the ward be given the recognition to which it is entitled in the distribution of proper public patronage, but who will ask the Republican organization in the ward to say to whom these places shall go. We believe that a $5,000 position on the city payroll, held by a member of the city committee, or a relative, merely because of political influence and not on the ground of efficiency, is a detriment to the public service and an injury to the party, and we are opposed to such practice. We think two efficient men or women on the payroll at a total of $5,000 a year, instead of one individual at that sum, even if efficient, will result in better public service and in twice the party service, and we stand for that principle. We favor the election of a member of the Committee who will demand honest elections, refuse promise of protection to criminal characters, in return for corrupt political work, and who will stand for exact justice to all voters regardless of race, sex or color. Voters who stand for these principles will stand with Mrs. Fulks in the election. We are opposed to the intimidation of voters at the polls and in public political meetings, and we believe the election of Mrs. Fulks will put an end to this reign of terror. Voters who stand with us for this principle will support Mrs. Fulks in the primary. The Republican Party issue in the Seventeenth Ward is clearly drawn with the principles involved as far separated as the opposite sides of the earth. The side which Mrs. Fulks represents stands for political integrity and public decency. There is no middle ground and it is up to the Republican voters to make their choice.

Williams; reporter FOURTH OF JULY PROGRAM AT Penal Inst., Jefferson City, The wonderful program for the 4th of July at the "Pilgrim Baptist Church" was greatly enjoyed by a large and appreciative audience. The meeting opened with that very appropriate song "My Country Tis Of Thee," followed by the welcoming address of Brother P. W. Thompson which was in itself a treat. The speakers of the day, Wm. E Goodloe, delighted his hearers with a highly instructive and extremely beneficial lecture on a subject which is of vital interest to every thinking man. It was entitled "Play the Game According to the Golden Rule," and with Mr. Boodloe's impressive delivery his wonderful command of the English language, together with his complete mastery of the subject, gave the congregation a lesson, that will long be remembered. He expects to give this interesting lecture together with his many others, in all parts of the country, and it is easily predicted that he will receive a royal welcome everywhere as he more than lived up to his reputation of being a wonderful orator and a complete master of his well chosen subjects. "Glory Hallelujah" was beautifully rendered by Rev. Jones in a rich full baritone voice and Brother Deckard led another beautiful song in that appealing tenor voice of his, ably assisted in the chorus by the congregation. A recitation, "Trial of Jesus Christ," by Brother Ell Goodman was more than well received and was indeed a very beautiful poem. Rev. Hy Page, W. S. Deckard and H. Jackson sang a very beautiful Christian Ballad in African Tongue, which was highly appreciated by everyone. A paper by Brother Harris on "Why is it That Everyone Wants to go to Heaven?" was a very interesting and thoroughly explanatory article on a well chosen subject. Rev. Jones gave many clever and highly educational reasons for our patriotic celebration of the never to be forgotten 4th of July. His citation of the trials and tribulations of Geo. Washington together with a complete summary of the important events up to the present time was intensely interesting, and showed a knowledge of History and enjoyed by many. His recalling to his hearers, the fundamental principles upon which this grand and glorious Country was founded, namely a government, Of the people, for the people and by the people, was indeed appropriate. Closing remarks by Rev. H. Page Benediction by the pastor followed by delicious refreshments, ended one of the best programs yet enjoyed by this congregation. The personnel of the Church follows: Pastor, Rev. Hy. Page. Secretary, C. Adams. Treasurer, H. Nellous. Chairman of Committee, Brother Harris, 23500 address, Box 47, Jefferson City, Mo. C. H.

MAYOR KIEL PITCHES AND COLLECTOR KOELN CATCHES FIRST BALL MAYOR KIEL PITCHES AND COLLECTOR KOELN CATCHES FIRST BALL Air-Tight Pitching By A.B.C. Slabmen Enables League Leaders To Win All Three Games From The Stars. An enthusiastic crowd of over 5000 persons were present last Sunday at the opening of St. Louis Star's new park. Severity prominent citizens addressed the large gathering and congratulated the owners upon completion of a new play of unimproved facilities and people of this city. The supporters also wished the new owners success in their new enterprise. Mayor Kielt, pitched the first ball and collector Koen was at the receiving end. The St. Louis Star's dropped all three of the games played with the Indiana game A, B, C. C's losing the Indiana game 4 to 0. The team went to the visitors, 9 to 3 and on Tuesday rain interfered. On Wednesday, the A, B, C made it three straight, winning 3 Superior pitching by Jeffries, Carr and Ross was responsible for the three Indianapolis victories. Splendid fielding was a great factor in the winning of the games. Myers was the only pitcher to display any real class. He worked in part of Sunday's game, and during his term he hit he held on the ball without loss. He came on Wednesday and although he lost he hurled a creditable game. Jeffries Wins Sunday On Sunday Jeffries the star of Jon Taylor's club ascended the peak after Mayor Kiel had pitched the first hit to Collector Koch, who located a safe pitch, only one man rebounded bale base. The Stags were allowed to solve his delivery and he allowed but four scattered hits. The A. B. C' scored two runs in each the second and third innings. Two shakes, a sacrifice hit, a triple and two errors by Scales netted the visitors two runs in the second innings. On Monday the A. R. C. v. Ridley Big Rill Gatewood, who was wily and beamed his successor Gurkha Gatewood was removed in the fifth inning Indianapolis had scored in him twice and two, runners, were on the sacks with but one man-out. Gurkha's entrance into the game was celebrated long rather unnerving summer Mackey hitting the second ball pitched into the roof of the war shed for a home run. Both teams scored a run in the second inning. Indiana pitched one over on two singles, a lay of balls and a hit batter over. St. Louis' run came as the result of Russell's triple an error Scales' two base hit. Indianapolis baskets active in the fifth and scored four runs off Garwood and Gurley. A base on balls an infield out, a pass ball and a wild pitch netted the first run in this round. An infield error and a base on balls terminated Gatewood's stay on the ground and Gurley took up the burling. Mackey greeted the Chata mega southpaw by slamming his second offering on the roof of the car born sending two runners in ahead of him. The leagues gathered at a rally in the seventh on two hits and a base on balls, making the score 5 to 2. The visitors scored twice in the eighth on a triple a walk and a two bagger. The couch bays added one run in the single, an infield out and a two foul hit. The A. B. L. bunks matter more certain added two more runs in two doubles and a single produced the pair of tallies in the final chapter. Blackwell opened the local half of the goodnight session with a double but persisted on the sack when three following batsmen failed to place the leather in safe territory Myers Pitches Creed Game But Also On Wednesday Mervs pitched a great glove but was defended on a bad break in the fourth inning the score of the game being 3 to 1. With two men out and a man on second, Washington slammed a ball at Mervs and bounded away from him, kicking him back first and third when the side would have been retired. Mervs more favorable conitions. Blackman's pop single to right center scored the two runners on the sacks. The other run scored by the visitors came a result of Dudley's boot on Tebow's single to center. Mervs scored second from which station, he scored on Eggleston's centerfield single. The locals out one over in the seventh as the result, of a walk to Hilt Englston wide throw to second on Ras Sailor's sacrifice, and an error by the usually reliable Clirk, a rup coating over on the boot. The Stars both several good chances with inability to hit Ras with rumours in scoring position. If the fourth they had men on, first and second with two outs but McDowell wasimental to the occasion and rolled out to Blackman. Another good chance went by in the fifth. Myers had walked and stole but, Blackwell, could do nothing to put his mate over, sending cage balls to the ground. Karnoula failed in the given with runners on first and second after the run had been scored. Dan Totals ..... 29 ..... 0 4 27 3 INDIANAPOLIS A. B. R. H. O. E.

"Dictie" Johnson Said To Be Slated For Dismukes' Job As Keystones' Manager Preston News Service PFTTBURG, Pa., July 12—Baseball affairs in this city are due for another shakup, according to all the dope available. For following a recent report that manager Dismantle has been released, former Kentucky Kerners and then taken back, comes a still later rumor that the former A. B. C hurling ace, who piloted the local team since its infancy last year, has come to a final-parting of the wars with owner Willimus, and that he will be the next to join another one of the late C. L. Taylor's pupils. Just how true this is, is not known at the present time. The Keystones are in the midst of a hard series with the famous Bacharach Giants of New York City and, neither Williamson or Dijnakes will verify or deny the rumor.

Time And Place Not Mentioned Although Mullins, The Colored Fighter's Manager, Had Contended For An Early Date, Dempsey Says They Will Probably Fight July 2, 1928. Tex Rickard Says The Hout Can Not Be Staged Until Next Year. Special To The Argus NEW YORK, July 12—Paddy Mullins, manager of Harry Wills, and Jack Kearns, manager of Jack Dempsey came to terms Tuesday and signed an agreement for their men to fight. The statement was made that no place or time was desired until they are at Montreal, Quebec, said he probably would meet Wills on July 2, 1923. Tex Rickard wants the fight and is going after it but says they can't fight until next year. Rickard says: "Tidy promote the fight and I'll outbid any other promoter. If they fight in Jersey City I can give Dempsey a percentage of the gate that will amount to more than he got for fighting Carpenter. Johnson and Jackson Not Allowed To Box July 4 Associated Negro Press HAMILTON, Ohio., July 12—Jack Johnson and "Tut" Jackson did not enter the "squared circle," here July Four, according to schedule. Both Right, according to Hart, where great crowds from all sections had gathered, but final arrangements with the Boxing Commission could not be completed, and those who had hoped to see a live scrap were greatly disappointed. It is thought that a bout between Johnson and Jackson may be arranging later. "Getting Dempsey will be the thing as I have already terms with Wills. If it does not become necessary to build a new stadium I can give Dempsey almost as much as he is asking." Rickard said today. The agreement signed by Dempsey and Wills is hardly more than a written promise to talk over a fight with the promoters. The desire of Mullins to have the proposed battle conducted this year was responsible for the failure of the to managers to come to a mutual understupding last Saturday. The agreement approved and submitted by Kemes contained Dempsey's consent to a title bwlf with Wills provided that bwlf for the contest must be satisfactory to all and stipulated that the contest must be held in a period of sixty days. The acceptance by the signatoror of the successful bid for the proposed bout. The time and place were not specified, but were left to be mutually agreed upon by the boxers and their prospective managers. Mullins objected to the agreement or the grounds that it did not bind Dempsey to any specified time limit in which to box Wills. The challenger's managers insisted on substituting provisions for the bout to be held under the rules of the New York State Athletic Commission, for the opening of bids within thirty days from the date signing the agreement and for the holding of the contest later than thirty five days from the opening of the bids containing these agressions Mullins frankly stated his purpose of composing Dempsey to agree to box Wills this year. Kearns, however, declined to sign any agreement which would legally obligate the champion to defend his title this year. Kearns declared his readiness to agree immediately to a bout this year providing suitable inducements were of forced by any responsible promoter with the difficulties which is anticipated in obtaining a suitable location for the proposed match, were advanced as Kearns' reason for declining to consent to the stipulations advanced by Kearns. If Kearns had a claim it was insistent that his substitute provisions to the agreement to be accepted. The information as to whether Mullis or Kearns won out in the argument was not given out today. The agree- Original Agreement The agreement which Kearns submitted to Mullins last Saturday was as follows: This agreement, made this eighth day of July, 1922, between William Harrison Demesne, otherwise known as Jack Demesne, and Jack Kearns as manager of the, said Jack Demesne, beheadman of the parties of the debt, Harry Wills and Patrick J.
