LORIDA COLORED VOTERS START INDEPENDENT PARTY An Exponent of Truth and Justice VOL. XI NO. 28 FLORIDA COLORED START INDEPENDENCE Organization Elects Former Republican Leader As President. Hailed As Split From "Lily Whites." Called "Harmony" Move. Associated Negro Press. Jacksonville, Fla. Oct. 25.—It begins to look like the colored vote is about to break with the "Lily Whites" in this State. While for sometime the spirit of independent political action has been growing among the people, of our group throughout the north, there has been no noticeable development along this line in the south until recently when in this city the subject began to attend a meeting a few weeks ago, which culminated into an organization that is attracting the attention of the citizens generally, and the new organization has adopted the name Negro Independent Political Club. Hon. N. K. McGill, attorney, who was president of the Harding and Coolidge Republican Club of Jacksonville during the last session of this independent club, and he is as zealous and enthusiastic in this movement as he was when following the dictates of the G. O. P. The new organization is hailed by the Negro leaders as a split from the old Republice organization with which the Negro vote of the South has been so long identified. A mass meeting of Negro voters will be called at a future date, according to George E. Taylor, temporary secretary of the organization, who will be affected. It is also planned to extend the organization throughout the state. Although the future influence of the split is problematical, it is predicted that the Jacksonville movement will eventuate in a national organization of the Negro vote which may enable it to make itself felt in the general elections. Mr. N. K. McGill, Negro lawyer, is temporary president of the organization in talking to the meeting proposed as a slogan: "Better feeling better relationship and better understanding between the races here in the south." The prime purpose of the new party, according to its leaders, is to harmonize the relationship of the Negro and the white man. "The Republican party has done the Negro more harm here in the South than any other agency," Mr. McGill said, "because enemies of the Negro, who were formerly friends, no greater injury could be conceived. This is the seat of all our troubles, political, civil, and industrial." He proposed the independent organization which was formed as a means toward forcing the Negroes from the G. O. P. yoke. That the masseg of our group here in the South are ready to accept the leadership of Mr. McGill and his co-workers is evident from the fact that the meeting, including the recent mass meeting enrolled as members. Other meetings will be held from time to time when all who wish may attend and learn of the progress and purport of the movement. Lane Tabernacle's New Pastor To Preach Sunday Rev. W. R. Evans, of Atlanta, Ga., the new pastor assigned to Lane Tuberculec C. M. E. Church, will arrive here in time to preach at the morning and evening services this Sunday. Rev. N. L. Smith, the former pastor, has been assigned to St. Paul Church at Chicago. Major Wright A Delegate To Bankers' Ass'n Meeting Major R. R. Wright, president of the National Negro. Bankers Association, was a delegate to the American Bankers' Association, which met at New York last week. While there were thousands of delegates in attendance, yet Major Wright only recently received his every courtesy honors he received on the stage. He said that he has never seen a finer shirt exhibited by any group of white men toward a colored man during his public career. Fifteenth Anniversary The Fifteenth Anniversary of Victor Spiritual Church, 3014 *Pine St.* was most beautifully celebrated Wednesday evening, Oct. 25th at 8 p.m., amidst a patriotic space of decoration, and the color scheme white being carried throughout the parishioners marched to Loengrhens' Wedding March, into the church where Patriotism, intermingled with religion, was expressively brought out in song, with the waving of 'Old Glory.'

Another milestones had been reached. The St. Louis Argus Man Now Serving Curious Sentence May Be Paroled Carolina Negro Sentenced To Electric Chair. Case Was Appealed. But Never Perfected. He Is Believed Innocent Though In The Penn. Preston News Service. COLUMBIA, S. C., Oct. 25. According to reports Harvey is considering seriously to either reduce the sentence or parole David Barnum, under death sentence in the state penitentiary for an alleged attempt at criminal assault on a young girl. Barnum's case is said to be a curious one. He was convicted of criminal assault and sentenced by the late Judge McLeyr to be electrocuted. His case was appealed, the appellant never perfected and he has never been sentenced. He was sent up in 1918. In the lapse of time attention has been brought to bear on the case when the Governor found that Barnum has been in the state prison under a peculiar status and much pressure has been brought to bear on the governor for clemency on the ground that Barnum is innocent of the charge and should never have been convicted. Barnum at the time of his arrangement had no money nor friends, and Attorney Hickey was appointed by the county to defend him. Edward C. McLeyr later elected to Congress, prosecuted the case. Attorney Hickeyr appealed the case, arresting electrocution, but when elected solicitor to succeed Congressman Mann, he felt a hesitation in stressing clemency for one who had been his client, though without monetary consideration. There the case rested and Barnum remained in prison. It is said that Governor Harvey has given a great deal of thought to the matter; that there was nothing produced at the trial which would demonstrate the committal of the crime charged, particularly the attendant physician's testimony regarding the physical circumstances surrounding the alleged crime, was demonstrative that it had not been committed. Since he has been delving into the case the governor has received a petition from prominent citizens in Orange county asking for clemency, which was signed by many of the jurors. The foreman of the jury, is said to have come in his automobile a distance fifteen miles to urge the governor to do something in the bank at North; and Matthew O. Dougherty, an employee of the Federal and Bank at Columbia, who were behind the prosecution of Barnum, who lived on their farm, have asked for clemency. It is said that the governor has intimated to friends that he is of the opinion that Barnum has suffered enough and he does not think that he should remain quiet, in the case and leave Barnum in the case behind the bars for the remainder of his life, particularly when he is undoubtedly innocent of the particular offense for which he has been sentenced to death. NATIONAL MOVEMENT IS STARTED TO BREAK UP THE KU KLUX KLAN Preston_News_Service. RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 26—In a statement issued last Tuesday night, J. T. Bethel, attorney for a number of local members of the Ku Klux Klan declared that the recent withdrawal of the Richmond Lodge, "is the beginning of a nation-wide movement to break up the Klan", and to substitute a new organization as the "Anglo-Saxon Clubs of America." The first steps toward organization of the Anglo-Saxon clubs have been taken, the attorney declared, and added that a post will be formed in Richmond immediately from the severance of relation between the local klan and the parent organization, which curred on October 15, a failure among local klansmen for some time. Mr. Bethel annoted, "because of the manner in which the affairs of the organization were conducted at Atlanta." The chief reason for the withdrawal was that we found the "Georgia organization is a rampant anti-catholic organization instead of an organization to maintain white supremacy." "It is said that the local klan was local to the parent organization as long as their activities were directed against the Negro race. The new organization will direct its energies against the darker races, the Negro especially."

Boston City Council Passes Resolution Against K. K. K. Association for Military Education Miss. Oct. 25 — The Boston city council in session last Monday went on record as unalterably opposed to further activity in this city of the Klu Klux Klan and adopted a resolution describing the order as "an welcome, an American secret or organization validly constituted in secret to protect citizens and our citizenship in a vile and scurrilous manner."

"Milwaukee will become the 'hottest place on earth for the Ku Klux Klan if, any klansmen attack one of our citizens' black or white, red or yellow, Jew or Gentle, Catholic or Protestant, Slay Mayor Joan, in a letter today to C. Lewis Fowler, a member of the faculty of the Klan's Lander University at Atlanta, in reply to a letter protesting the organization had been misrepresented and offering to aid the mayor in maintenance of law and order in Milwaukee. The Marjorie's setter and skim meeting would be permitted in the Milwaukee Auditorium. As a rule, very few cases of necromic collars are trapped to the plow. REMEMBER SENATOR PETER ANDERSON The time has come when the Negro voter of this city and county should take a decided stand against those who insult and exploit them at will, and then come back and ask (through the political organization) your vote to help keep them in power. Senator Peter Anderson, who is a candidate for re-election from the Thirty-fourth District on the Republican Ticket, did by his association with the so-called O'Fallon Park Protective Association, insult every Negro in the city when he called upon Mayor Kiel to urge the Chief Executive of this city to bar colored picnickers from O'Fallon Park. As it is, well known that the agitation was started by a few of the Ku Klux stripe to bar the Negroes from using the park and Senator Anderson joined the crowd to help put it over. This act, on the part of this association, would deny the Negroes of the city the rights of citizens, and the very fact that Senator Anderson joined them, stamps him as a dangerous official and one in whose hands, the common rights of the people cannot be trusted. The original idea was conceived in mischief, born in prejudice, and nurtured in the spirit of lawlessness. We can hardly believe that a man who is supposed to represent all the people in his district could possibly stoop to such actions. We are quite sure that he could not have been representing his Negro constituents when he joined with the members of an outlaw organization to oppose them. If there ever was a time for the Negro vote to show some intelligence, it will be November 7th. The name Peter Anderson will appear on the ballot in Wards 1, 2, 3, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27, and 28. The Negro voter in those wards will have a glorious opportunity to render a Real patriotic, loyal service to their race by refusing to vote for Peter Anderson for Senate. When you are told to "vote'er straight," remember Peter Anderson as an enemy of your race. Remember it was he who would bar your churches. Sunday schools and day schools from enjoying an outing in one of the public parks of the city, just because of race prejudice. Pass the word down the line that Peter Anderson must stay home for a season. He is not fit to represent all the people in his district. Remember, we have been lamb-like lo! these many years. Insults upon injury have been heaped upon us by one fellow only to be repeated by the other. Surely, the time has come and now is when we must strike back with our ballot. And while we may not win; we may not accomplish all we desire, but we must make the start, or we are doomed for worse by the next fellow—See!

OFFICIAL GETS "FAIR PLAY" FROM A SOUTHERN RAILROAD Associated with Washington, Ala., Oct. 25. "Fair Play" is beginning to be asserted by some of the railroads operating through the South. The Rock Island Road is one of the first, however to give public appearance through an official to its intentions in this direction. "A complaint was lodged with the company by B. Ursusen G. Mason, the Supreme Medical Director of the Pythias organization. The complaint was delivered to T. R. Beacon, vice president, and manager of the Rock Island System by letter that stated the circumstances of ill treatment by a conductor on a train from Hot Springs a short distance out of Little Rock, Arkansas. The letter stated that the conductor demonstrated with the Dr. Mason, about the occupancy of the seat which he conducted in his particular seat. Other seats being vacant, the doctor refused to give up the place where he had been sitting since the train had left Hot Springs. There the conductor became very abusive and threatened the distinguished colored passenger with violence, but for some reason did not follow up the threat he had made. The reply was made to the complaint by Vice President Beacon: "Mr. U. G. Mason, Supreme Medical Director, Sup. Lodge, K. of P., N. A., S. A., E. A., A. and A." Pythian Temple Building, Birmingham, Alabama. Dear Sir: I have made investigation in regard to matter mentioned in your letter of September 14 and it is with regret that I mnd that your complaint is fully justified. The conduct is one of our younger men and has not done a great deal of passenger work. Our superintendent personally handled this matter with him, and I am quite sure that you have taken this train, you will have no cause for complaint. I thank you very much for the very full report and assure you that it is our policy to have our employees accord every one courteous treatment. Yours very truly, T. H. Beacon, Dr. Mason is highly respected in this city by both black and white. The incident has in nowse injured him among the self-respecting of either race Colored Woman, 125, Dies Associated Negro Press.

WILLIAMS Who Received His Fifth Appointment, As Pastor Of St. Paul A. M. E. Church Last Sunday Night. The Missouri Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church, which was held at Wayman Chapel last week was formally closed Sunday night October 22, after four days session. The large number of delegates and visitors were in attendance. According to the reports of the churches spiritually and financially, the conference was a success. From the opening of the conference, Wednesday until the reading of the appointments Sunday night, unusual interest was centered around Rev. C. A. Williams, pastor of St. Paul Church of this city, because he came to the conference by himself, then called on himself by some of his congregation. The warring faction came to conference on an appeal from the Quarterly Conference. This appeal was over ruled by Bishop Parks on the grounds that a layman has no appeal from a Quarterly Conference, but he told the petitioners, that they might file charges against the minister which would be heard. After the leadership of Dr. D. W. Scott, the grieved members hastily brought charges against Rev. Williams. A committee which was appointed for that purpose, after hearing the evidence failed to make a recommendation in the case, whereupon a motion to drop the charges was sustained and the charges were dropped. Bishop Reveres His Ruling. Sunday before the appointments were made, Bishop Parks seemed to have just awakened from a dream got up and said that the decision to drop the charges against Rev. C. A. Williams would be reconsidered whereupon, he appointed a committee to investigate the charges. Rev. M. W. Watson, Booneville and Rev. W. H. Spurrock, of Festus, this committee will make a report to the Bishop at some future date. Rev. Williams said that his actions toward the grieved members were according to the church law and that the ruling of Bishop Parks in the matter was what anyone would expect, as the church reported. The annual report, over $2,300,000 conference calls having been paid. When Bishop Parks read out the name "C. A. Williams to St. Paul," wild apause, followed which was so prolonged until order was restored with great difficulty. **Appointments St. Louis District:** St. Paul, Rev. C. A. Williams; St. Paul, Rev.

A Square Deal For Every Man GOMPERS'IDEA DIVIDED ON THE KU KLUX KLAN Labor Leader Is Opposed To Persecution Of Jews But Silent On Question Concerning The Negroes. Associated Negro Press "The federation is firmly of the opinion that the administration of the law, is vested solely and entirely in the duly elected or appointed officers of the law, and that those who as members of any secret organization assume functions properly belonging to legal authorities invite mobs rule and create in men's minds the desire of duly constituted authority. The federation is also of the opinion that it is not conducive to government by law and the maintenance of peaceful and safe conditions in the community to have members of any organization parade the streets so disguised that their identity can not be discovered when such disguises are adopted for the purpose of inspiring the thoughts of belief that the disguised individuals represent an invisible government. "Samuel Gompers." AMERICAN LEGION AND THE NEGROES Review Of The Recent Meeting At New Orleans, Colored Legionaires Urged To Take A More Active Part And Stand Up Like Men. By McRae Jones, Calvin Hyde Post Colored Representatives and Delegates from Arizona, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Washington, D. C., Illinois, Arkansas, Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, New York, Missouri, Kansas, Massachusetts and other states attended the 4th Annual American Legion Convention in New Orleans, La. October 16th-20th. '22. Much good was done by the Delegates in working up the status of the southern Colored ex-Service men. The predominant factor presented at the Convention was a Resolution and Amendment that was passed by the Committee on Constitution and presented at the Convention by Mr. J. Q. Lindsey of Des Môines. This Resolution and Amendment had it passed would have meant the salvation of the Colored ex-Service men in the southland. Quite unfortunately it was tabled indefinitely by the Committee on Constitution and By-Laws. It is hoped that the Colored ex-Service men in such states that are given the opportunity to function as Legionaires in the yellow streak and come to the aid of those ex-Service men who by custom are less fortunate. Colored ex-Service men the Loxon needs you, not for the Legions-sake, but for your-own. More than six thousand Colored men saw service in the World's War from the City of St. Louis. More than twelve thousand Colored men saw service in the World's War from the Missouri. Today there are not five hundred Colored ex-Service men in the Missouri Department of the American Legion. It was left to six colored ex-Service men from the state of Missouri to represent the many thousands of Colored men that served and followed the Flag of the U. S in the World's War and carry off the honors for the Negro Race in the 4th Annual Parade recently held in Missouri. The cold facts seem preposterous. Where is our back-bone? Six men in a parade of some eighty thousands, representing the Colored lighting units of the United States of America. Wake up men we are sleeping. Yea, sleeping up a principle and right that were we denied, we would be fighting for. Get into the fray because we worrying fall by the wayside. There were four Colored fighting units who brought more medals and decorations back from the French line to the U. S. A., then bestowed upon all other fighting units that served with the American Expeditionary Forces in France.

Blair, of the Mathematics Department, Mr. Horace P. Payne, teacher of vocations and Mr. Jas. S. Thomas, teacher of French. The following make up the personnel of this chapter:— Leon W. Steward, Polemarch; S., H. DuValle, Vice polemarch; E. A. Colbert, Keeper of Records; A. A. Keene, Keeper of Exchequer; Louis Cloyd, Strategus; E. A. Brown, Lieut Strategus; and B. Mosby, member of the Board of Directors and J. Peters, Lee M. Owens and G. Cecil Lewis of Kapsis and the Chicago Alumni Chapel, respectively are also affiliated themselves with this chapter. Mr C. Udell Turpin of Chicago and Mr. Victor Hicks of St. Joseph Mo. came to St Louis to assist in the initiation. After the military ceremony, the entire body enjoyed a banquet in the dining room of the Grand Central Hotel, which was rather uniquely decorated in the fraternity colors.

The magnificently appointed home of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Victoria, 3921 West Belle Place, lent auspiciously to a formal stag, at which Mr. George Clark was the host, and a compliment to members of the Bona Fide (Society) Club, last Monday night. The club colors, old gold and, Irish green were used in decorating and very much in evidence. Artistry in its true meaning described the musical program which was furnished by Messrs. Geo. R Walker, Silas W. Fearance, Clifton Jones, W. Garfield Rogers and Antonio L. Haskell, a quiptet of the famous Shrine Club. J. W. Reed, resident of the Bona Fide Club, was toastmaster. Among those responding to toasts were Mr E. J. Victoria and Mr. R. C. Fisher. The Bona Fide Club has a membership of seven young men, who are responsible for much of the interest manifested among Shrineland in St. Louis. "She may be your girl" but she will be at Pythian Hall Wednesday, Nov. 15, 1922, with the Paramount Boys. — Adv. ECHO FROM EASTERN GATE Too much cannot be said in appreciation of what the management of the Urban League did for St. Louis in presenting the play "Eastern Gate." Had they done nothing more than acquaint the public with the number of young people possessing histrionic ability, that would have been much, to say nothing of the latent talent such an affair brot to light. Evey character in the caste, even the dancing kiddies, deserves more than passing mention but lack of space forbids the special mention of only the two leading female characters: Meadames Bowles and Phillips. Neither Mrs. Bowles' experience as a public reader, nor Mrs. Phillips' as a singer prepared one for witnessing the surprising, knowledge of stage technique displayed by each, and it was most gratifying to note that their voices, the sweet and mellow, penetrated the remotest parts of that large theatre. Their team work was beautiful. Each so complimented the other that neither could have registered the success they did without the other. Mrs. Phillips in her usual conscientious desire to present a flawless rendition, it is said, sought special training in her Chinese dance from Prof. Clendennung. Since "A Thing of Beauty is a Joy forever" the St. Louis public will ever have joy in remembering that to have been one of the most beautiful exhibitions of rythmic motion seen on any stage. Dramatic St. Louis is proud of Mrs. Phillips and proud also to welcome Mrs. Bowles as an acquisition to its group. SNOW'S COLLEGE OF DRESS-MAKING.

Thou essence of the good and germ of truth: We cannot say tis here or there, It is that which is everywhere; Tis the universal substance pure, Tis good of Souls and heart's own cure. Thou art like beams of Sun that fall, Rejecting none but shine on all; Though some are genial warm and kind. While others are like frost-chilled wind. Love is like a landscape far, Or music sweet or distant Star; Ever near but never thers. But lifts the soul beyond compare. Every body will be masked at the Sun Set Dance Palace, Tuesday, Oct. 31.

MISSOURI PRESS ASSOCIATION ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS NATIONAL NEGRO PRESSS ASSOCIATION Foreign Advertising Representatives W. B. Ziff Co. 608 South Dearborn St. Chicago Ill. WE MUST HAVE BREWSTER FOR SENATE. Measure the men by any rule you may, and it will be seen by the unprejudiced mind that R. R. Brewster, the Republican candidate for United States Senate is the proper and logical man to represent Missouri in the highest law-making body of the land. The Argus does not make this statement from the mere fact that Mr. Brewster happens to be the candidate on the Republican ticket, but because we firmly believe that he possesses those qualities which make him far superior to his opponent, Senator Reed. As will be remembered, Mr. Reed is a bitter enemy of the Dyer Anti-lynching, bill. He voted against that bill becoming a law. Mr. Brewster is untried in the high office as that of a United States Senator, but we don't doubt for a moment what he would have done had he been our Senator instead of Jim Reed. The Argus believes that we need new blood in national law-making bodies. We have very little faith in the calibre of men who make up that body as it is today. Of course, there are some whose souls are true and hearts sincere, but they are few. Let Missouri start with new blood by electing R. R. Brewster on his Senator and leave Jim Reed at home. Let Missouri start with new blood by electing R. R. Brewsster as her Senator and leave Jim Reed at home. The Fall Campaign is on. The two greatest political parties are facing each other in battle array. The issues that divide them are neither deep nor profound. No definitive destination has yet been stated. The party that is in, wants to stay, in: that party that is out, wants to get in. The conservatism of the Republican party is a political constant. The Democratic attitude is shifting and variable. The Northern progressives find themselves fettered by bonds of infamy with Southern Democrats. Tilton and Cleveland and Wilson is counterbalanced by the provincial vehemence of Tillman and Worsup and Vaidhman. The Negro stands beepled-between the lukewarm favor of the Republicans and apprehensive fear of the Democrats. The attitude of the two parties is rapidly gravitating to the lower level of the traficious Southern policy. The Negro's attitude towards the present administration may well be expressed by a Kipling quattro: For to admire and for to see. For to behold this world so wide. It never done no good to me. But I can't drop it if I tried. And so he will go into the Fall Campaign under stimulus of the same old appeal and with expedition of the same old appeal, the bluff published policy of the Republican party offers little or no constructive advantage for the Negro. The bad precedence set by Taft and continued by Harding is not likely to be changed by their successors. There is no sign of relief in sight. The presidential campaign of 1924 will be of great significance in the political history of the race. The Republican managers will of course try to headwink him with the same old appeal, which has worked so successfully for the next ten quadripartite. If must in all can be said that the Negro political manufacturers have beetroite display little, statesmanship. They have been content to be treated as a slave to the state or to distribute the cold crumbs of patronage. I am describing rather than criticising our political leadership, which under all of the difficult circumstances, has done perhaps all that it could, and that no comparative or comprehensive program has yet been forthcoming. The nomination of independent Negro candidates for president, senators and governors merely as a protest against the Republican apostasy not yet resulted in any clear 'advantage' to the race. The vindictive spirit is more apt to hurt than to help. To contribute even indirectly to the national triumph of the Democrats in the election, rather than prove in force of the well known and emphatically attested attitude of the dominant element of the benefited party. The average Republican would rather see his Democratic rival elected than yield to the threats of the Negro recalcitrants. The Negro cannot hope, for much further racial advantage, through appointive positions. All government appointives must be loyal to the powers that appointed them. They can be appointed by the white administration run against the adopted policy of the administration. The chief function of the black cabinet is to vindicate the ways of the administration to the Negro. Appointive offices in all grades and departments of the government are the Negro's just because of his power fairly and by reason of his beneficiality. The governmental office. But compulsory offices, by the very nature of their appointment and nature, are disqualified to demand or portend for the rights of the people. There remains but the ray of hope amid the continuing pleas: It is in the power of the Negro in the office. The most needy elective positions which directly upon the powers of the people. It is in the power of the Negro in the office. PAGE SIX MIS PUBLISHING CO. ST. LOUIS, MO Downtown 1452 MANAGING EDITOR CITY EDITOR and ADV. MGR.

MEMBER councils to state legislatures and to the Congress of the United States there is little hope for further political progress. No-white man, however kindly kissed, can speak for the Negro or impress his claim upon the mind and heart of the American people. He may indeed speak about the Negro, but he must plead his own cause with his own voice. Whenever the white man essays to speak for the Negro, his words are discounted in advance. The nation therefore pays little head to such essays, and it is hard to hear the voice of the Negro, for the Negro, and by the Negro. We may judge in some slight measure the political benefit which two or three Negro congressmen might bring to the face by what a few Negro representatives scattered through the outer state legislatures have already accomplished. A Negro "blue collar" senator of the South would be worth more in constructive advantage than all of the appositive positions within the widest hope of the political optimist. There were in 1920, 175,400 Negroes in New York City, 134,000 in Philadelphia, 100,000 in Chicago and 108,000 in Baltimore. These census figures were probably underestimates, by 1924. it is reasonable to believe that the figures will have been materially increased. It may, therefore, call for a new Negro senator, 1924. New York, 150,000 for Philadelphia, 125,000 for Chicago, and 120,000 for Baltimore. There will be a sufficient number in each city to demand a member in Congress for the Negro group. While it is true that the Negro voters may not support the majority in any given congressional district, yet the regular party nomination will carry with it the white contingent in interchange of political advantages. Negroes are sufficiently represented in the legislature to give something of the power of political solidarity. It does not require a majority in any group to command political control of a geographical unit; but merely a majority of the major party. This may not be much above a fourth of the total population. Let it also be borne in mind that there is a larger proportion of adults in the Negro population of these cities than among the white race. This fact gives political potentiality. But this question above the level of district politics. The Negro voters throughout these several states should make a united demand upon the state machinery of the Republican party. In this the regular congressional nomination in the heart Negro district in a member of the group. The Negro vote is essential to Republican success in all of the states under normal political conditions. The party manager would not dare refuse to present it presented with unity and currencies. Let us have a Republican administration for 1924, with a "block" of three or four Negro congressmen. MADAME B TAGE RHODA OPENS BRANCH HERE Madame B.

Buckner GETTING RESULTS The egregious blunder often made by Negroes is their utter indifference in not attempting to correct injustices until it is virtually too late to win Her to their side those who have the authority and power to do so, organizing a representative Committee to possessing an illuminating report in criminal maladies before authorities are obviously important steps. And the next step, the crystallizing of public opinion upon a definite thing, is most assuredly the part of community wisdom. But these are indeed not all that must be done in order to put over a definite piece of far reaching work. There must also be organized agitation on the part of the leaders guided by a super-sense of intelligence and tact of the highest order. They must ever be on the job unprejudiced themselves and possessed with common sense and sincerity. Among the larger needs of . . . the Negroes of this city that have come to our attention during the past six months are the following. A new school is open. A new park and playground facilities and improvement of conditions at Bellefontaine Farm. Very little has been accomplished so far in either of these instances. For example, the question of Negro school needs to be able presented the presentation of central strength Association before the Board of Education at the public hearing last May. As yet, the opinion of the Board of Education relative to the disclosures made by this Committee now works of this Committee was the outstanding not to achieve the desired goal. Neither the Committee nor the public should fail to have some designee information as to what the Board of Education intends to do. Will this Committee not inform the public? Again, the Open Air School question has been apparently ignored by the Board of Education as such for several years. This column has stated again and again the position of the Tuberculosis Society in this connection. Why is such a school not provided for Negroes when there are 30 percent more aenemic Negro children than whites? Simply because the Negroes have not made sufficient land. Shall such lethargy continue? Parks located in various parts of the city have been greatly improved during the past summer. Of the $200,000 or more appropriated for improving its parks and playgrounds, only $15,000 was set aside for IMARGUS—TEN FFT proving parks located in Negro districts. Perhaps this pittance would not have been granted had it not been a strong point by representative committee of Negroes before the Mayor and Board of Estimates last spring. rent district;—he can, if he wants sell things a bit cheaper than down town store in spite of his buying power. Nevertheless a dollar you and I spend with the craftful profit. You I and the mobs of our race give a great neighborhood store keepers ALL profits. Can your son marry your groom's daughter when her daddy made a fortune by selling mercury to you and me and the neighbor Can your son get in as a parting your groomman's son's business. If you answer these questions and your dealer does not advertise This column has also called attention several times to conditions which prevail at Bellefontaine Farms. Every citizen should be as much concerned as the institutions at this institution as the parents of the inmates. How long will the Negroes commit the egregious blunder of "letting George do it." Shall such injustices—as those cited above continue to exist in St. Louis? bumbling, bumbling, bumbling, Conciliation and common sense will bring the desired results. The Politicians There are always just a sufficient number of a certain shrewd type Negro in every community to keep poorly informed white men fooled. Mr. Reed and one democratic candidate for Congress seem to have been hearing the claims of this shrewd Negro type. Mr. Reed, remember, recently discussed that he had a lot of the Good Mason's sort of love for Negroes—he forgot all about the time he was so fearful of the danger to state rights" that he had to write Washington to put him on record in favor of lynch-law. White men and especially whites politicians should not be expected to have any particular love for Negroes. Some times though, a politician realizes that Negro votes count. Mr. Browser seems to realize this. A Million Dollar Hotel Did you read in last Sunday's parish that Democrat candidate for Congress himself landed and was prepared to build a Million dollar hotel for Negroes? How long did it feel you? There may be some small excuse for some men to hate us but we should not allow a man to think we are complete fools. There's about as much chance for any one to build a million dollar colored hotel at St. Louis as there is that Tom Watson got by St. Peter. Hone and Fear Fear of Hell and hope for Heaven have tougher made religion—fear of loss and hope for gain has made of the Negro a desolated human. White men can revolt Negroes, thereby gaining earnest support from their own people and hope for their support. We must change that. A new hunt a few days ago, when a colored space salesman called upon him, said he was not particular about Negro trade; if Negroes came in, he said, they were served and that was all he was going to do. That white man doesn't hate Negroes, he despises them. He doesn't think Negroes have sense enough to not trade with him and although that merchant sends thousands of dollars a year inviting white people into his store, he feels that he knows that Negroes will come in whether he invites them or not. It is your business and mine to teach him better. The Crow Education There are some advantages to a community with a large Colored population when Colored teachers may teach colored pupils in the grade schools—sections of the United States where institutions of higher education have Jim-Crow rules are backward. The National administration during the war has been precedent of national segregation and proscription of Negroes which some of our universities seem indicted to follow. Politics dictated the national race policy during the war but amongst other, evils the segregation policy which the administration evoked was severely relied on by the voters. When the best brains of Colored Americans are kept out of the best colleges and universities we may expect conditions similar to that which exist in St. Louis schools now. A colored high school student here receives instruction from degree men from some of the world's best universities because these trained colored instructors can anything better than high school students. The Klan and Catholics The Catholic Church has the choice between advocating a square deal for Colored Americans and accepting the K. K. K., what will be the Church's choice? Don't answer too quick. Catholicism MEANS just what it says, as a word—like the Bible through, the word is variously interpreted and it appears as though the American Catholics' interpretation is about the same as the American white person's interpretation of our Catholicism. Although there are thousands of colored communications to the Catholic Church there is not one Colored Bishop,—there are Chinese, Senegalese and Hindu Bishops. Catholicism, like Protestantism, and the Golden Rule, seems to have become a mantle of convenience to be put on or taken off at will. If Catholicism meant what it says The Church would form a real and lasting alliance with Colonel Americans to meet the man's needs. When a Negro makes such a proposal to the average wealthy Catholic though the mantle of ignorance, will be probably be laid aside. Neighborhood Storms.

Negro Officers Advocated For The French Army Negro Officers Advocated For The French Army Few Objectives Picture Military Future of the Country in the Hands of Othellos. Crusader Service. PARIS, Oct. 25—Col. Stuhl in a proposal now before the Army Commission advocates the training and appointing of Negro officers for white regiments. The plan includes the opening of the French military schools to Negro students from the interior of Africa, a level with Tunis Algeria and Morroco. They would then report their reports to the head of white troops and on at the same level as the most aristocratic Parisian of the Faubourg Saint Germain. Objectors have been found to the plan, however, who picture the military destinies of France in the hands of future Othellos. Parisian newspapers with English and American hailings are especially opposed as they feel that such action would rouse protests and vindictive retaliations on part of the Negro-hating Anglo-Saxon war of the Thirty Years' War, the danger involved in the French colonies in training Negros to lead armies and bring in the so-called "Garvey Movement" and Marcus Garvey's foolish threats as supporting their position. Col. Stuhl and his supporters laugh at the nightmare of "Garveyism" thus invoked and answer that the entire "Garvey Movement" is nothing but hot air, and braggedode based on a total ignorance of modern conditions. In the proposal, following closely Rose Maran's proposal of the Prix Goncourt and "Battling Silks" victory over Carpenter is having a highly concerting effect in many quarters heretofore believed democratic. Efforts To Prolong GLEFELAND, Obito. Oct. 25. - Efforts of the American Public Health Association to prologue the expectancy of life which now prevails throughout the United States at least twenty years within the next fifty years, was set as the goal of the association to promote the average duration convention here last. Tuesday night. It was pointed out that "within the past seventy-five years the average duration of human life has been extended by not less than fifteen years in many of the great nation of the world" and that "gains in length of the been greater in the past twenty years than in the previous fifty." "The improvement in the prospect of long life is not only continuing, but at an accelerated rate," the resolution said. "Nor is there reason to doubt that certainty of still further great additions to the expected span of life is needed for those people who read alight during the next fifty years. "It is the opinion of the American Public Health Association that the maximum life expectation is far having been attained even with no further additions to our knowledge of the causes and means of preventing disease. This applies to the Negroes as well as the whites." Around Damascus and Bagdad there is a new dream of empire with Arabesque trimmings. BOMONT 1714 DR. GEO. M. CATHRELL DENTIST 3200 LUCAS AVE. DON'T FAIL TO VOTE TUESDAY NOVEMBER 7 At no time in the history of the Negro race in Missouri has the opportunity presented itself such as the election November 7th, 1922. Five members of the race are the regular nominees on the Republican ticket, and each can be identified if the New Yorker right to vote on that date and votes the Republican ticket straight. Besides this Hon. L. C. Dyer is up for re-election and it should be the pride of all to support him so he can be returned to Congress and continue the fight for the anti-lynching bill which a law of the land will mean so much to all, it will mean the discontinuing of the mob rule, and the burning at the stake of so many innocent persons; both men and women, which has been done with impunity hereof. Then James Reed is a candidate for U. S. Senate and we need every vote of the race to help defeat him. With these conditions, existing, it does not behove you to vote on Tuesday, November 7th, and see that each of your neighbors does likewise. Perhaps at no time in history will you again have the same interests at stake as you have now... Do you know that there are registered in the fourth Constabulary district in 1924 and 1941 are colored and 1482 are white? Do you know that if you exercise your right to vote on Tuesday, November 7th, 1922, you can elect two constables in the fourth Constabulary District and one Justice of the Peace all three members of the race, beside re-elect Waltham Moore for the Legislature? Do you know that for the first time in the history of Missouri that you can elect a member of the Race to the office of Justice of the Peace if you will only exercise the right you have an vote on Tuesday, November 7th. Do you know that there has never been in the State a member of the race who has resided as judge of any Court? Do you want the race to advance politically? If you do, then go to the polls on Tuesday, November 7th, 1922 and vote the Republican ticket straight by so doing you will elect in the Congressional District, I. C. Dey, to Congress. You will be feating Jim Reed for U. S. Senator. You will also elect Crittenden E Clark, a member of the race to the office of Justice of the Peace, and Langton Harrison and Charles Turpin members of the race for the office of Constable, besides the entire Republican Ticket which means much to you. You can believe in making history this year's opportunity. See it if that you vote early in the morning and encourage your neighbors to do likewise. Don't forget, Tuesday, November 7th 1922, this will be a red letter day for the race, if you take advantage of this opportunity that is offered to you. When you receive your ballot just place a cross mark at the top of the Republican ticket, the one marked with an elephant at the head, or top hand this to the judge without further marking and you will vote for the entire Republican ticket and the candidates of the Race.

Case Will Go To A Higher Court. Preston News Service. PITTSBURG, Pa. Oct. 18—Marsua W. Newman, charged with the murder of Railway worker Claude J. McCut- gulty of murder in 26,1921, was found guilty of murder in the first degree in Criminal Court last Friday afternoon, the jurors reaching a decision after one hour and forty-five minutes of deliberation. Last February 14, Newman attempted to sell $2,000,000 worth of bonds, the last of the $30,000,000 worth of bonds he had been arrested in and was arrested in a Philadelphia broker's office. The case of the commonwealth was entirely circumstantial. However, it was shown that Newman for a number of years worked in the Pittsburgh Post Office and that afterwards he worked for the Pennsylvania Railroad Company as a brakeman, for a time being in the company that shifted the mail car in which McCullough worked. Two weeks before the murder he ceased to work, the railroad company that justified that under the name of Samuel Kauffman was active in social life and stolen bonds and was trying to dispose of the last two when he was arrested. Newman was active in social life and affairs in Pittsburgh and his arrest came as a distinct shock to his many friends here and many eastern cities as he was well known in Washington. Philadelphia, New York and Atlantic City. It is said that the case will be carried to a higher court. Woman Jumps From Auto Dies On Way To Hospital WASHINGTON, D.

ABROTT Civic Committee, Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance SECRETARY ALLEN OF COLUMBUS "Y" RESIGNS Urban League Gains Another Executive Secretary, $159,000 Y Building Was Erected Under His Administration. Preston News Service COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 18—N. B. Allen, for seven years executive secretary of the Spring Street Y. M. C. A., tendered his resignation to the board of directors and the committee of management last Monday. Mr. Allen came here December 1, 1915, when the work of the Spring Street Y. M. C. A., was carried on in a dwelling, and had a membership of seventy-one. Through him the berserk was raised and the one then under his control modern $150,000.00 building was erected under Mr. Allen's administration. The Spring Street "Y" has the distinction of being the leading Negro "Y" association in the country. It was the first association to have a full standard program with the business office of physical education, boys work director, educational director and social and religious directors. Mr. Allen was the first Secretary in America to introduce the duoplan of membership. The most prominent of which is the Business Men's "Club" of the Spring Street "Y" which is based on this Club is housed of Negro bishops and professional men who meet every Tuesday noon and discuss questions of social, civic and financial interest to the race. The Spring Street "Y" is the laven which inspired the large businesses which are now being conducted by Negroes in this city. Mr. Allen in connection with Dr. W. D. Woodlin and a few others were the founders of the Columbus Urban League, an organization for social service among Negroes, and for interracial co-operation between the races. Last November, Mr. Allen was granted a year's leave of absence to take charge of the work of the Columbus Urban League, which is the New York Welfare Council of Columbus of Colored Social Agencies. Mr. Allen is acting in the capacity of Executive Secretary of the Columbus Urban League and during the year has been able to do many great things for the better of his race in this city, as well as promote a better understanding between the white and colored people here.

The company backing the project is the Steel City Amusement Company, of which John Branch is President. Several efforts have been previously made among Negroes here to erect a theater where first class shows and plays could be given, but all have fallen through for lack of co-operation and support among Negroes. This project looks as though the people are going to stand back of the young businessmen here and help them put across this project.

To illustrate: A liberty fund is *safe and convertible*, but it is not *profitable*, and lacks the element of *permanency* because it is subject to early maturity (which calls for re-investment) and has no qualities of business expansion or permanency. Stocks in speculative or commercial *institutions* are neither *safe permanent*, and are *profitable* only in sixteen cases out of 100, and *convertible* in less than those cases out of 100 at the mercy of an unstable market. SAFETT—There is no record of the failure of a financial institution of the type of the People's Loan & Finance Company. First, because all of its capital is workable, and its funds are loaned on a scientific basis—statistics on over $100,000,000 of loans made on this plan show losses of less than one tenth of one per cent. Second, because its plan of operation eliminates the hazard of money fluctuations assumed by commercial banks. Third, because its funds are kept in a separate depositary, are indemnified, and their handling secured by ample surety bond. PROFIT—Under the Peoples' Finance System, which has been adopted by this institution, the capital of the company is incurred over three and one-half times each year. Loans are made for a period of one year, but installments cover the amounts loaned and the profits are permiated monthly. After allowing interest on payments the net earnings from loaned is over thirty per cent. These profits are increased in proportion to the amount of capital amassed in addition to that obtained from shareholders. Installment investment accounts will accumulate very rapidly, and the profits on such accounts will not be less than from 20 per cent, per annum. For instance, Industrial Loan Company has a capital of $200,000, while its outstanding loans are the last one million dollars in the company of the money amounted above its original capital was less than the amount it lent. When this institution has reached the same proportion of original capital and amassed installment accounts its gross earnings under the SHERIFF AND BROTHER ARE "WHITEWASHED" OF PEONAGE CHARGE IN GA Jury Frees Men Although Colored Man Swore He Was Forced To Work Without Pay, And Life Threatened. Preston News Station ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 18—To tell the truth Jasper County is some County and Missionaries can find lots of work there. Harvey K. Persons, sheriff of Jasper County, and his brother, W. P. Persons, were acquitted of a charge in last Thursday afternoon in the United States District Court. The Jury was out only a few minutes. The charge was based on two statements of Robert Lee Griggs, a Negro, who asserted that the Persons brothers forced him to work on their plantation in Jasper County without pay, threatening his life if he attempted to escape. Contendants, it is said, introduced testimony to show that they paid Griggs' fine when he was convicted of misdemeanor, and that he agreed to work until the account had been separated. HAITIAN PEOPLE OPPOSED TO FORCE AMERICAN LOAN. Crusader Service. NEW-YORK. OCT. 18. A protest against the proposal of American loan to the Republic of Haiti has been made public by the Haitian Santo Domingo Independence Society which opposes the $15,000,000 Republic of Haiti loan, which is in process of rotation this week by the National City Company, the financial interests alleged to have brought about the American occupation of Haiti and the consequent murder. The society's statement was sent out to the daily press in an advertisement but was refused since by these faithful servants of the interests. The statement declared that the loan had been issued over the protest of and that it was based on the following illegal steps: 1. invasion of United States naval forces of the independent Republic of Haiti in July, 1915. "Overthrow of a treaty through military pressure" "words of Admiral Caperton, commanding the United States forces)," and other terms of which automatically extend United States occupation, for at least thirty years." Three other illegal steps were mentioned, including "Dissolution of the Haitian Legislature;" imposition of a new Constitution by an "illegal plebescite;" and election of a dummy president. The test concluded with the statement: "The Haitian people despite arrests, court martial and imprisonment, have repeatedly protested that the loan is illegal; is based on force and fraud, and will be repudiated by them at the first opportunity." If the end of our vacation finds you eager to get in grips again with your work, you have found the right job. **People's Finance System will exceed ONE HUNDRED PER CENT** **PERMANENCY**—An investment in the 'People's Loan & Finance Company will be permanent. The institution will grow, gradually add to its surplus and extend its field of operations. The value of an investment in it will be continually increased by its ever-increasing reach and influence, aside from its accumulative solidity and advancing earning Practically all great fortunes are based upon financial institutions primarily because their permanency depends upon such institutions. CONVERTIBILITY—Shares in the Peoples' Loan & Finance Company will always be convertible. First, because they will always be acceptable as collateral that is a part of the guarantee of this institution. Second, because each share will always represent so many dollars (whatever the assets as shown upon the books at any day will show that share in represent in dollars and cents). These assets are liquid, and there are no elements of estimation or speculation to effect that book value. Consequently, these shares are a lien upon so much money either in the form of cash or collectable notes, and regardless of investment assets, have fixed cash value, the same as a valid lien or note secured by that much money. Therefore these shares are not only convertible, but you will find that they will always be saleable at a premium above their book value.

PITTSBURGH COLORED MAN GETS A STAY OF EXECUTION FOR MURDER Joseph Thomas, Sentenced To Be Electrocuted: Believed Not Guilty Of Killing White Woman. Husband Suspected. Preston News Service, PITTSBURGH, Oct. 18—Attorney Robert Vaughan, former Assistant City Solicitor and one of Pittsburgh's leading attorney's went before the State pardon board-host Wednesday and was granted a stay of execution for Joseph Thomas, who was recently convicted for the killing of a white woman in Pittsburgh last fall, and sentenced to be electrocuted. It will be recalled that Thomas was captured by the local police after being wounded and placed in a Hospital under guard. Thomas, is alleged to have made a miraculous escape by jumping from the fourth stair to the pavement—although suffering at the time with a bullet wound near the making good his way. A country wide search was instituted for "The wide search was done and after several months of freedom he was finally captured by a colored woman in Baltimore. When Thomas was brought back to Pit堡, city officials declared a holiday, and made as much fuss about welcoming this man as if the President of the United States were to make a visit. Under the circumstances the man good conceived of the crime in the eyes of the public for the daily filled with news about his case, and for several weeks, prior to his trial. Several officials of the police and detective force lost their jobs following Thomas' escape from the hospital. Eminent physicians in this city declared that it was a physical impossibility for Thomas to have escaped in the condition he was at that time, suffering from a bullet wound. A number of upstanding white citizens could not believe that Thomas had murdered Mrs. Anna Kirkter and during the time he was at large the husband of the shain woman was suspected, but under the mass of newspaper quickly laying the crime to Thomas Kirkter was released. It is said immediately after being murdered Kirkter gold out of the hands of the man and other belongings and left for California. He gave as his reason for going West, that he wanted to get away from the scene of sadness caused by the untimely death of his wife. Kirkter and his wife were said by neighbors to not have gotten along so well. During Thomas' trial and conviction of the murder of Mrs. Kirkter, the husband of the shain woman was as far freer than possible, and as is known has never been back since. Thomas was defended by Attr. George H. White, Jr. A number of Church people in this district felt that Thomas did not have a fair trial and they raised funds and employed Attr. Robert L. Vamp to make a fight for Thomas' freedom for a commutation of his sentence. Let's hope Providence will punish the coal schemers by the midst of mild winters. No other power seems to teach them a wholesome lesson. BOY IS ARRESTED AND HIS BODY FOUND LATER ON RAILROAD TRACKS Thirteen Year, Old Lady, Who Stole Teacher's Purses, Throws Self In Front Of Train In Fit Of Childish Remorse Preston News Service. MADISON, N. J., Oct. 18. - Early last Tuesday evening, a 13-year-old boy, James Brown, stood before Recorder Curry and pleaded guilty to the theft of $15.00 from Miss Jay, a school teacher. Five hours later his school body was found on the tracks of the Lackawanna Railroad, where he had been killed. The police believe that in a fit of childish remorse, the boy threw himself in front of a train. The boy's body was discovered lying across the tracks by L.E. Berry after midnight. Berry is a railroad engineer. He could not halt his train in time to avoid striking the body. It is said that the body was cold at the time, and it had it killed by a train that passed over his body about an hour earlier. Brown was arrested at the request of Mrs. Kate Robinson a truant officer. It is alleged that he had taken the money from Miss. Dixon's pocketbook at the school. The lad was found attempting to buy a ticket to a moving picture show and was arrested. The officer found the pocket book in the boy's possessions and took him to headquarters. Recorder Curry directed the boy to report At Police Headquarters for 40 nights and to attend children and Sunday school for 20 nights and to go with the Chief Police that very night to the school and a pedicure to Miss Dixon. It is said that after leaving the court room the boy did not go home, but is supposed to have wondered about town for several hours. He lived with his father and sister, his mother being dead, in Belmont Avenue and would not have had to cross the railroad tracks to go home.

A PROMINENT WHITE SOUTHERNER ENDORSES ANTI-LYNCHING BILL Bolton Smith, Tristee Of University Of Tennessee Says 'Crime Of Lynching Is Next To The Assination Of A Prominent Officer Of Nation. NEW YORK. Oct. 18 (Special)—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People makes public a statement from Bolton Smith, of Memphis, Tenn. President in 1910 of the local Rotary Club, and a Trustee of the University of Tennessee, endorsing the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill which is to come to a vote in the Senate during the next session of Congress. The statement of Mr. Smith was said to be especially significant, by James Weldon Johnson. Secretary of the Advancement Association, in that Mr. Smith declared the Bill contained no special attack upon the South. Mr. Smith in his statement declares: "The crime of lynching is, next to the assassination of a prominent officer of the Nation, one of the greatest, which can be committed. The crime of lynching is a very real sense, and therefore should be trivial by Federal Courts." Mr. Smith's statement in full is as follows: September 27, 1922. "I am in favor of the Dyer Bill giving Federal Courts jurisdiction in connection with the crime of lynching under certain causes, because: "I believe that local sentiment in many places is too strong to permit local authorities to enforce the law against." "A trial before a jury in a United States Court" is not a trial before an alien tribunal, but the jury is selected from the entire state or district, and one is assured of a more impartial jury—one not terrorized by that local sentiment which usually is so blatant after any mote action. Few officers have the courage to oppose strong local sentiment. "3. There is no special attraction to the South in such a measure. It is required by the program of the common North, where we are South. A common Negro labor have moved into the North. Negroes have been lynched by white mobs there too." "That some Southern men who sincerely oppose lynching should not favor the Dyer Bill is due to a misapprehension of its effect and purpose. There is no part of the United States in which those favoring the due process of law for the punishment of lynchers by Federal Courts, wherever local officials fail to do their duty." "1. The lynching of Nerges by white mobs are bad enough punishment is some danger that we before long be face of, an even more numerous character of, lynching namely the lynching of those of one religious faith by those of another faith. This would divide America into hostile camps and produce civil war, and we need a law that will enable the Federal Courts to regress these cases with the utmost severity. "5. The crime of lynching is next to the assassination of a prominent officer of the Nation, one of the greatest which can be committed. This is especially so where it is present in another, which other race or class, regards the lynching as an attack against every one of its members. A lynching in Georgia tends to disturb labor conditions not only in the adjoining states, but in the entire South, and is not without its effects in embittering race relations in the North. It cannot be regarded as merely against the peace and dignity of the States within whose laws the evil effects spread far beyond those limits. It is a crime against the Nation, in a very real sense and therefore should be triable by Federal Courts." "6. I do not assume that this law will immediately stop lynching; but it will be one step in that direction. Above all, it would impress the officials of every state with the determination to stop lynching. The effect of a few trials in the Federal Courts will be highly beneficial." (Signed) Bolton Smith." National Children's Bureau WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 18.—Care of the nation's babies, that the growing generation may be sturely, launch and truly American, it to carry the nation forward in its progress toward the high ideals fundamental in the work of the founders of the republic, is the duty which the Department of Labor seeks to perform through the Children's Bureau. The Children's Bureau was established by an act of Congress signed by President Taft on April 9, 1912, for the purpose as stated in the act, of investigating admonishing "upon all matters pertaining to the welfare of children and child life among all classes of our people," and especially a "investigate" the questions of infant mortality, the birth rate, dephange, juvenile courts, desertion, dangerous occupations, accidents and diseases of children, employment, legislation affecting children in the several States and Territories. Negro mothers are advised to communicate with the Children's Bureau. Associated Negro Press SAVANNAH. Ga.

PAGES 7 TO 12 REPUBLICANS EXPECTED TO RETAIN LEAD Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 18. Political speblinding is sharing places of popularity with football and post-season baseball, with the interest extended, the upward trend for the Speblinders. Two more swocks, and the grand finale will be on. Will the Harding Administration be endorsed? Will the Republicans win out? Will the Democrats gain in Northern states? Will Colored Americans slash their tickets? These are questions being asked on every hand. A careful survey by The Associated Negro Press discloses the fact that so far as the Harding administration is concerned, and the winning of the Republicans the two questions must be separated for determination. The Republicans will no doubt win out in Northern states, practically all where they are now in power, but in the case of the personal endorsed of President Harding, and in societies so far as the Colored Americans are concerned, unbiased investigation discloses that such is not the case. Rof Republican Senators and Congressmen, the majority of Colored voters will support the ticket, and two, in practically all of the states where governors are to be elected. In the respect of local candidates for county offices, in a number of centers there will be a large splitting up of a vote. This promises to be especially true in New York, Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Louisville, St. Louis, and Kansas City. In New Jersey, the Democrats are making an open bid for racial openness and Senator Freeman is preparing to have the "fight of his life" in the contest for Senator with Gov. Edwards. Colored American voters have watched very closely the announcement for the capital, to the effect that the administration and the Republican National Committee will support the Independent Democratic candidate for Senator in Texas, for "cause", in this instance being the abalienable Klu Klan. Taking the position that the party and Administration have done a commendable thing, in this respect the position is further taken by thoughtful citizens that Colored people have the right to pick out individual candidates also" for cause", and vote for them according to the loftiest belief for the best interests of "the race. Without being beholden "parry traitors." For example it is pointed out that Congressman Parker, in New Jersey, Republican, who voted against the Dree Anti-Lernching bill, has abolished a claim for support from Colored voters. There are other similar individual cases and it looks as though the voters are determined to exercise some independence in this respect. Announcement of a number of Colored American appointments prior to the election are bound to have a stimulating effect, and a measure of reassurance of the "Powers that be" seeing the point, and discovering the fact that the voters have been very much in earnist about being independent. Being human, national, Republiciana, President Harding and all concerned cannot wholly shut their eyes to the vision of 1924 sweeping down upon the population, but, indeed, that's another story, as the novelists say.

RIO PIEDRAS. Oct. 18—A meeting of delegates from all parts of Porto Rico has just been closed here. They comprised leaders of the new Nationalist Party. The meeting produced a great sensation throughout the breadth and length of the Island. The chairman was Senior Colly Cucchi, President of the Porti Rican Senate. Among other things, he declared: "The most glorious assembly that has been held in Porto Rico is beginning and I ask that all of us stand upon our feet and salute with applause the advent of the Republic of Porto Rico. We doubt that there be a republic as a consequence of the action that we propose to take today." This was received with prolonged applause, and served as a key note for the meeting. A declaration of principles were drawn up and a resolution passed to send a copy to President Harding, along with information of the formation of the new party. Another resolution was adopted to send sageage to the members of Spanish society clausing kiship of blood and tongue, and informing them of their organization for the purpose of effecting the liberation of Porti' Rice from the crushing incubus of American imperialism. You Can Ship A Chick'But Not A Rooster By Mail Associated Negro Press. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 25— The old barnyard pooster cannot travel by United States mail but buy old chicks, according to a Postoffice Department announcement today, may be shipped, provided their journey may be completed within seventy-two hours Moreover, the chicks may be insured against loss, but not against death.

This announcement proclaims 'the end of one of the world's greatest scholars as well as the passing out of one of the notable figures in the Roman Catholic Church on the Western Hemisphere. He was a Negro, full blooded. He was the intellectual pride of Brazil.' As a member of his country's Academy of Letters he was an important directing force in the national endeavor to seek and to hold a firm first place among the more influential nations of the world. He was recognized in Brazil as the social equal of any man in the Western World. Not because he was black, but because he measured up to the intellectual standards accepted as the highest in the Western World life. He was at heart a gentleman, an affectionate gifted scholar; by birth a Brazilian of the fullest patriotism. This was all Brazil asked of him. This was all Brazil had of right to ask of him. Ab. is good that life is finally just and true and beautiful. Out of her ducks come her stars; out of her darkness come her dawns; out of her dreams come her eternal verities of being. Don Silio Verlo Gomes Pimenta lived a good life. He met a death bathed in beauty and hallowed by faith. O. Death, more old than all the sacred hills. More old than love, more old than grief, more old Than laughter of the wrids which kiss life's wold, have been touched with hurt of pain that kills. But in your song I hear the laugh which stills Whatever of sorrow has my heart kept cold. Whatever of story you have often told My soul, and Death, how deep the music thrills! "BOOTLEGGING" IS NOW AN AMERICAN INDUSTRY Millions Of Dollars Are Being Made And A Lot Of Folks Do Not Want The Eighteenth Amendment Repealed. Associated Ngea Press CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 11—"Bootlegging" has become a serious undertaking by unusually large group of people in America, and "Aunt Hager's children," a goodly proportion of the aggregate in the game, are most certainly in the running according to careful investigations. The newspaper stated that when the Democratic state convention turned down the light wigs, and beer resolutions in New York, the "bootleggers applauded." There seems to have been a reason. Despite the fact that the government is expanding millions of dollars annually to enforce prohibition—while it is not spending a dime to enforce the fourteenth amendment—it is pretty generally known that millions and millions of dollars, are exchanging hands in the trade of illegal liquor making and selling. ILL PAY MY BILLS SO YOU CAN PAY YOURS A. B. ILL PA BILLS YOU PAY Y If things keep on as they are, in a few years we will have scores of Colored millionaires. I feel certain that men in our own race are making more than $50,000,000 a year in the traffic. Continuing he said: 'Before saloons went out while there were a number saloons were owned by Jews and of Colored men in the business who made money, a majority of the Italian, were besides, and became politically wealthy. Now, practically all of the underground selling is done by men of the race.' Takes In Box Circle. Tales in big Creece. It is a well known fact that the trade takes in a big circle. It gathers them in all the way down the "moonshine" producers, the druggists and physicians, many of whom have become very rich in recent years. It is known that scores of physicians and druggists who before the treatment were constantly "sibling the blues," are now basking in the sunshine of "space and plenty." The outstanding evidence is unmistakable. They wear diamonds rings from one to five carats; they live in the most exclusive neighborhoods, in the homes that cost as high as $50,000. The writer was informed by a prominent business man that one "Doctor of Bootlegging," had paid him $25,000 in cash. "Johnny on the spot," for a piece of property. The purchaser himself informed the writer that he had "salted away" more than $200,000 in the last years. He is not a producer, but gets his wet goods from the outer circle. This particular person is an authority on production, and while some members of his "gang" have been caught, he never been so unlucky as not. He now contemplates estates, several skills in the dark resections of primeval forests. Such skills are scattered about in every section of the United States. They are some times caught with the goods, and many of them have been "sent up" but the game goes merrily on. The man who are on the job range. in number of from five to fifty. The majority of them are unlettered, and are brought directly from the South, and taken to the spot, without their knowledge of what it's all about. They are paid on an average of twenty dollars a week and board, or permitted to go to townships about once a month, to take the chapelman. **Railroad Men Work It.** Railroad men running South into Florida, and points along the Mexican border, and to Canada, are known to be getting rich playing hide and sees with the eighteenth amendment and the government. Nine such cases recently caught "with the good" in Chicago. But there are some who hold gritte checks for them, and who hold gritte checks for not to be sold on thousand dollars, and not be worried about the next month's bills. There are a lot of folks, who are anxious to have theighteenth amendment kept on the books, for reason that are quite oblious. FEDERAL OFFICIALS CALLOUS OVER PROTEST. Crusader Service WASHINGTON, D.

XI 27th Installment For The Associated Negro Press America needs, particularly in these material days, the aesthetic, the artistic, the humorous side—the psychology—of the Negro. Who could be glad to see all the colored people of America gathered upon the Atlantic shores with transports waiting to hear them forever away and hear them blend their mateless voices in a song of farewell? Not any of us. They have done too much for this country in the past and are capable of doing much more in the future, for any sensible individual to wish them away. We need their cooperative labor, their patriotic loyalty. THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, OCT. 27, 1922 their pathetic as well as cheerful music, their good humor and their optimistic spirit. But in the entire consideration of this race question, may we not make his mistake of assuming that it lies entirely within our (the white people's) province to determine the "how and the wherefore" of the colored race? IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SundaySchool Lesson Let us not forget that under the Constitution of the United States every citizen, irrespective of color, has equal rights with every other citizen. It is not for the white man to dictate to the black man, nor the black to lord it over the white man. All should dwell together in unity. Each race needs the other, and the nation needs them all. American unity and solidarity should be the watch-words of the hour. Without a nation-wide rebuilding of these qualities, disintegration will soon overtake us. This is no time for racial and sectional differences, but rather for the complete obliteration of the sentimental differences which alone hinder the complete cooperation of the two great races and the two great sections of our country. Chapter `\XII` 28th Installment THE NEW FREEDOM Of late there has been much talk about the "New Negro." There is and can be no such thing as the "new Negro, but there can, and must be a new freedom for the Negro. The time has been reached when this fact must be recognized by all classes; Fifty years of progress by the Negro together with the world upheaval in thought, resultant from the World War, has prepared the soil of society for a new growth with respect to the Negro of America. The upheaval in the United States with the Civil War, a half-century ago, gave the Negro physical freedom. The recent world agitation, among other radical changes, will lead the Negro of Americans wrought, will lead the Negro of America into mental, economic, and social freedom. This new freedom is coming to the colored race, not through legislation, not by any sort of material force or arrogant assertion, not by way of threat or demand, but along the unobstructed pathway of divine truth. The Great Teacher said, "We shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." That was a new and startling thing for Christ to say when he did say it, and it is always new and startling when we grasp its significance and undertake to occupy it. Yet, it is a fact that no real freedom ever came to any individual or any people anywhere other than this way. Not by shooting deadly bullets into men's bodies, but by driving divine ideals into their heads and hearts does liberty come to races and nations. All that is necessary to bring about complete harmony and permanent accord and co-operation between the white and black races in America is for both races to understand and appropriate the TRUTH about themselves and each other. Ignorance, falshoods and prejudices on both sides must be eliminated entirely before complete harmony can prevail. The white race must understand that the Negro is fully entitled to economic freedom. The Constitution of the United States, by virtue of his citizenship, vouchsafes this to him. If in the past racial prejudices has denied him this right, despite the obstacles in his way, by virtue of his demonstrated ability to make distinguished economic progress he has doubly earned his right to complete economic freedom. As a citizen of this Nation the Negro has equal rights with every other citizen to every material possession in any locality whatsoever, which by the use of brain and money he may be able to obtain. The Negro is entitled, also, to equal opportunity of using his abilities in every line of endeavor for economic advancement. He should not be discriminated against because of his color. He should be freely and fully recognized and rewarded through merit alone. Freedom by the Truth: in this age, must bring to the Negro, complete social liberty. In the great mass of humanity into which all people are born, where for a brief span they play and work, enjoy and suffer, and out of which soon they die, it is only because of the densest ignorance, the meanest selfishness, narrowest vision and supreme folly that any one denies to others the largest possible liberty and fullest fraternity in mutual cooperation for the legitimate enjoyment of the good things of this world. This, in the biggest, fullest sense is society properly functioning. To mix and move in it, to contribute to it and receive from it untrammeled and unhindered, is social freedom. Those who by virtue of ability and disposition are able to contribute most to the great fund of human happiness, naturally get the most pleasure out of it, for it is only by giving in the true sense that we get. Race or color do not figure in this, save as they may determine the mental and spiritual measurement of the man. They have nothing whatsoever to do with the freedom of all people to be the best and to do the very most possible for themselves and for others.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC - Progress of Prohibition Throughout the World. The lesson committee has gratul tously named this lesson "World-wide Prohibition." Neither the text nor the context, directly or implied, says anything about prohibition as we understand the use of the word. However, when Messiah shall reign upon the earth the run traffic with all other iniquilous practices will be abolished. 1. Messiah's Commission (v. 1). He was appointed by the Lord. God's plan for the world is a time of peace and blessing. II. Messiah's Program (vv. 1, 2). JH. Messiah's Program (vv. 1, 2). Messiah's program is twofold: to "proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord," and the day of vengeance of our God." The careful reading of Luke 4:18-21 will show that Jesus suspended reading of this passage at the comma, in Isaiah 61:2. His first coming opened up the day of "grace and the acceptable year of the Lord," and His second coming will usher in "the day of vengeance of our God." (JH Thess. 1:7-10; cf. Mal. 3:1-3). 1. Proclaiming the Acceptable Year of the Lord (vv. 1:2). In His ministry of grace He preached (1) "good tidings to the meek." "Meek" here means not only a grace, but a condition, that fs. those in poverty and affliction. (2) "Bind up the broken-hearted." "Bind up" signifies healing. (3) "Liberty to the captives." The figure of deliverance from the Babylonian captivity is used to describe deliverance from sin and death (Heb. 2:15). (4) "Opening of the prison to them that are bound." Messiah's work was to give deliverance to those who were enslaved by the consequences of their sins. (5) "The acceptable year of the Lord." This means a space of time in which God would accept all who repent of their sins and come to Him. 2. Programming the day of vengeance of God (V. 2). While the day of mercy is lengthened out, the time of judgment will surely come. The day of vengeance will break upon the world when the Lord shall be revealed from heaven (II-Thess. 1:7-10). The period of mercy is called "year," while the period of vengeance is called "day," showing that the period of mercy is much longer than the period of wrath. III. The Blessings of Messiah's Kingdom (v. 3-9). 1. "Comfort all that mourn" (v. 2). The day of vengeance will bring sorrow to many, but they shall be comforted when they shall see the King on the throne. 2. "Give unto them beauty for ashes" (v. 3). This peculiarly applies to Israel. 3. "Oil of Joy for Mourning" (v. 3). Israel has been mourning for centuries. When the Messiah shall reign as King they shall be glad. 4. "Garment of Pratse for the Spirit of Heaviness" (v. 3). Instead of wearing the symbol of the burden of sin they shall be clothed so as to indicate their joyfulness. 5. "Called Trees of Righteousness" (v. 3). These trees represent Israel as planted by God and bearing fruit, not as reeds bowed down with sorrow. 6. "They Shall Build the Old Wastes" (v. 4). Israel shall return to their own land and shall rebuild the city of Jerusalem and the cities of Judah which lie waste. 7. "Strangers Shall Stand and Feed Your Flocks" (v. 5).

Instead of the shame and confusion which Israel has experienced for centuries she shall have double honor and rejoicing. 10. "I Will Direct Their Work, and Make a Covenant With Them" (vv. 8, 9). God will vindicate His people and cause the Gonites to see the divine favor upon them. False Prophets.

The closing of the Southeast Mo. and Illinois Annual Conference at Gary, Ind., last Monday night brought gloom to the door of 2000 Lane Tabernacle members as Rev. N. L. Smith for seven years pastor of Lane Tabernacle and who has made remarkable progress, was assigned to St. Paul C. M. E. Church, Chicago, III. The Lane Tabernacle official board vigorously protested the change and asked for the return of Rev. Smith but no new effort was forth coming from Bishop R. A. Carter. Rev. J. A. Winters, who pastored St. Paul of Chicago was made Presiding Elder over the St. Louis district. Reports were that Rev. H. H. Evans, Pastor of Butler Street C. M. E. Church, Atlanta, Ga., would be the new pastor of Lane Tabernacle, Rev. T. H. Edlin, Lane Tabernacle talent, was assigned to Love Joy, III. Mrs. Cora Denwildie was assigned to Neckyville, Mo. An audience of 300 merry people enjoyed the Tom Thumb wedding at Lane Tabernacle last Monday night. Master Charles Gates as the minister, certainly made a hit with the jolly crowd. Without him the performance would lose two-thirds of its grandeur. The affair was given by the Good Samaritan Club and was the opening of the six months campaign that precedes the Spring rally. The Good Samaritan Club will serve dinner Sunday. There will be prescheduled at 3 p.m. The gentlemen's contest will close Friday evening, Nov. 3rd, at the home of Mrs. Lillian Brown 4012 Eright.

Theme, "The Glory of Service", taken from St. John 13, wherein Jesus set the example of service, by washing the feet of his disciples. Dr. H. H. Jones, who is a Missionary in Africa, preached for us on last Sunday night. He made the sermon short because he wanted to tell us something of that beautiful country. His statement of facts was put before us so earnestly that many of his hearers were delighted to be listeners and were sorry when he had finished speaking. A collection was given to him for the Hospital that he is hoping to build in Africa. He has been laboring in that country for over fourteen years.

Humphrey, Minister Segregation Attemp Fails In National Spiritual Assoc. Majority Of Members Conclude That There Is No Jim Crow In Heaven And Spirits Do Not Draw The Color Line. Associated Negro Press. CHICAGO, Ill. Oct. 25—Do spirits draw the color line? That question came up last Wednesday at the National Spiritual Association when a movement for segregation of the colored members of the order was started. Fight over the proposition from all angles ensued. Apparently a majority of the delegates believed there was no Mason Dixon line in the astral world, for the battle ended with the matter tabbed and the chairman, President George B. Warne threatening to appeal to the sergeant at arms if the hubbub did not subside. All spooks look alike, as far as the color is concerned, colored delegates asserted, and they contend there are no Jim Crow arrangements in heaven. Proponents of segregation held that only by eliminating the colored spiritualists could the National organization carry its propaganda into the South. "You know how the Southerner feel—they want to lynch us all when we hold mixed meetings," shouted a New England delegate. The Rev. Bertha P. Creaf, colored pastor of the Christian, Spiritualist Church, Columbus, Ohio, asked for delay: "When we are a little stronger and a little more learned we'll leave," she declared. There was prolonged applause at this. CENTENNIAL CHRISTIAN 4225 W. Kennley Last Sunday was "Woman's Day."

The living waters flowing so freely are here for you and me; a conserrated gospel) minister is crying even as the vowe of the wilderness "Repent." If it is verily possible, our pastor reaches new altitudes with each sermon. His is a unique method of portrayal that leaves nothing undone or overlooked in a subject, but item by item each phade is clearly and definitely pictured and is easily assimilated by the dullard, some-criticized and hegethen. If such there be. The charming umbel of past age that mother admires and refreshes makes it sound like a new gospel. The old story that's ever new, Jesus and Jesus only. Words cannot describe these beautiful sermons, they must reach the earspenetrate the seat of thought, feel and know their delights and beauty.

Come to St. Douglas and get your souls fed with this unmutilated gospel preached by Rev. Foster every Sunday at 11 a.m. You are welcome. THE BUSINESS FORUM By E. Winston Williams, Manager of Mid-West Life Ins. Co. I read with interest the article written by Attorney Davis, and I think we should bestir our solves. Before coming to St. Louis I found from statistics that there were more than 70,000 Negroes in St. Louis and I that, what a grand opportunity for colored business and I was sure that our people was taking advantage of same, but I must say that I have been somewhat surprised and disappointed. On account of the nature of my business I have walked over a large area of the city especially the districts inhabited by our people. I noticed that in sections where we reside all of the real business is done by the Greeks and Jews; with few exceptions and they are supported by members of our race. Now and then I saw a little place in the middle of the black or in the alley, these were operated by our people, it was either a Restaurant, or soft drink and barbecue stand. I also noticed numerous signs in the windows 'dounging hairdressing, roomers, etc.; the barbers and undertakers make a creditable showing. Did any race ever step into the commercial time light by specializing in Rooming houses, Soups and Sandwich kitchens, I think I will consult, Mr. H. G. Wells and find out if such a thing ever happened. Why can't we have Banks, First class insurance offices, First Class Play Houses, department store, markets Automobile agencies and other needful business places. WHERE IS THE BLAME? I have talked with some of our leading business men they blame the public, they say, "the ublic will not support such projects." Now this may be true in a measure, but is this the sole drawback what about we business men? "In my survey I found out that as business men we do not study and put into practice the fundamental principle of business "SERVICE." You walk into the business place of a Greek or Jew, he is all smiles and attention - and will try to anticipate your wants to the smallest detail. Drop in and see one of our colored brothers in business; the honor is all yours, he seems to think that you should be proud that the good master spared you to walk into his place of business to spend your hard earned "iron boys," and the way some of them look at you, you don't know whether you are in a place of business" or an insultation for the deaf and dumb. Here are some of my personal experiences. I went into a barber shop on Market Street to get a shave; the barber after putting lather on my face and knowing that he had me down for the count, promptly proceeded to argue with his friend the fine points of playing police. In course of the argument using language that I would not dare, use here. It took me one hour to get this shave. My wife and I went to a West End movie house, there were no users at least they were not visible. The men came in with their hats up to be removed only when they sat down. There was a party of ladies just behind them who evidently thot that they were attending the Friday evening sowing circle for they talked during the entire performance, when they ran out of gossip they began to yawn, there seemed to be no one in authority to remind these ladies that there were other people who paid their money to enjoy the show and not listen to the current gossip. In another colored show a young man sat behind me and whistled throughout the performance. I walked into a West End Cafe, after I had sat at the table for ten minutes or more the girl sauntered over, looking as if she had just lost her Grand Mother and asked if I wanted anything. Did she think I and midtaken her place for a rest room? These are some of our faults, few of our people have learned the value of a smile in business. Are we going to let the foreigner who oftimes cannot speak a word of English come over here and beat us doing business with our own people? ANOTHER REASON. Our colored leaders do not practice what they preach. Dr Pfilter will Lower Winter Fares to Many Winter Places! Among them - San Antonio - Houston - Galveston in a Winterland of Romantic Atmosphere and Delightful Climate THE Sunshine Special TO TEXAS MISSOURI PACIFIC Ask the Agent Metropolitan he will spend five cents, per month for colored magazines and newspapers and two dollars per month for white periodicals. The leading insurance man wants the doctor to patronize his Company but when he is sick he wants Dr. Evans of Chicago. The colored grocery will tell you he can't live without your support, but he buys his clothing from Mr. Lewenstein. buys his coal from the Polar Wave, his insurance from Mr. Funkstein and don't read Negro newspapers. The Real Estate man wants the patronage of the druggist, and other colored people, he buys a dime cigar from the druggist once per month and has his prescriptions filled down town or at Kernsky. The fact is that we think all the little fellows should help us keep up the old darder, but when we get ready to spend ours we must do it with the white folks. If we keep, this up what will the harvest be? We have in our City an officer of the National business league, why not an active local branch? We need it to create efficiency in our business groups. I am a business man and have taken up the problem from the business side. Will some one please tell us what they think is wrong with the dear public? I also wish to state that we have some creditable business institutions here. I have seen them and appreciate them, but I am not writing about what we is-but what we ain't; that is where the shoe pinches. Let's start something. GENERAL NEWS ITEMS Associated Negro Press *WILMINGTON, N. C., Oct. 18.* The elephant that escaped from a circus train recently, and terrorized the community for thirty-six hours, damaging property, was captured late last Tuesday when she became bogged in Greenfield lake.

C., Oct. 18—A record low death rate was established last year in the registration areas of the United States, according to an announcement tonight by the department of commerce, which gave the 1921 rate as 11.7 per thousand population, against 13.1 in 1920. The infant mortality rate for 1921 also decreased from 1920, according to the statement, which gave the rate for 1921 as 76 per thousand and 26 per thousand for the previous year. The areas include a population of 70,255,000. The birth rate for 1921 was 24.3 per thousand, against 23.7 per thousand in 1920.

In the South the blacks are shown to have a smaller death rate and a higher birth rate than the whites. Associated Negro: Press ATIANTA. Ga., Oct. 18.—The shock which attended the execution here of Frank B. DePre, a more boy, for the murder of a private detective, is being followed in Atlanta and the entire State, not to mention neighboring States with concerted drives on capital punishment, except in the cases of Negro criminals. The reason is not that DuPre was hanged—not that particularly—but centers around the fact that in the Fulton County jail here a woman is confined under sentence for the murder of her husband. Associated Negro Press PARIS, France, Oct. 18.—Dr. Doumer in address to the French Academy of Medicine recently demonstrated how copper could be introduced under the skin to cure skin diseases and also to give persons a dark complexion. Brunettes are all the rage in the fashion places of France and hundreds are having their faces "fanned" artificially to make them brown. Associated Negro Press *KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct., 18— Knights of the Ku Klux Klan thrust themselves squirtly into the political arena in Missouri recently, following an open meeting of the order in Con- vention Hall here to which 20,000 per- sons were admitted, while several thousand others fought in vain to gain entrance. The klansmen urged that only Protestant Americans be voted for at the coming election and that party lines be fast aside for that pur- pose. Senator James A. Reed was denounced and his defeat urged.

It is true that the boys have earned a small monetary compensation from these games but they were acquainted by a deeper motive - Recognition. The fans will be this winners and respecter, mansipation of this fact can be shown than a testimonial atta- nance at the game Sunday. In all probability it will be the last Sunday game this year.

McIntosh NASHVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 25. — Fisk University failed to win from A. & I. State Normal in a well played game last Saturday by taking the short end of a 7-6 score. The brand of foot ball played by both teams was commendable and Normal seems on the road to having the greatest grid season of years. "Notwithstanding the fact that a internal fiasco fans felt that Normal would be outclassed by superior material the game was a hard one. The Fiskites' much vaulted speed was in evidence but it spent itself against a heavy line that was practically impregnable. Captain Johnson, the fleet leader of the Fisk eleven, and touted as the greatest back-field player developed by the south in years, was smothered by the intense object of special attention and save for a few flashes of brilliant broken field running, they effectively stopped him. The game was particularly clean. In the first quarter of the game, Fisk ncaused their goal line twice, but were unable to go over. The second and third quarters both ncaused Fisk to take the lead in scoring during the first part of the fourth when a forward-pass to Long for a ten yard run netted them one touchdown. She failed to kick goal. Fans began to leave the grounds during the latter part of the game when the team took two minutes to play and when the score was 6-0 in favor of Fisk. At the last down for Normal, with goal to make, Harmon of Normal fumbled the ball which was covered by a Fisk player about four yards behind the goal line. Works attempt to block the ball but the goal line thus trying the score with thirty seconds of play remaining. Normal made the winning score by running from placement. Score by Quarters: Fisk ... 0 0 0 6-0 Normal ... 0 0 0 6-7 Fisk ... 0 0 0 7-7 Officials: Sims, Referee; Robinson, Timekeeper. The Turks And Siki Have Smashed "White Prestige" Africa and Asia No More Believe White Race Invincible and Oppressed Peoples of Both Continents are Preparing for War of Liberation. Crusader Service. NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—This is a great year for the Negro. And for all the colored races! First the most highly prized award in the world was won by the Negro Race Many years ago, but Bautouk, then came together the defeat of the British-backed Greeks by the Turkish Nationalists and the knackout of Europe's heavyweight champion and the world's middleweight champion Georcain Carpenter by "Battling Siki," a Negro from Senegal—these are three of the most outstanding events in the long list of achievements in which the Negro, and the colored races general have been the best of the four for the best of the last twelve months an affirmed stolen recognition months and forced suilen recognition from a reluctant world. the colored races have greatly shaken white prestige. But - it never rains but it pours!' and on every hand today somebody is taking a whack at the battered thing called white prestige. In India, Egypt, Nigivsa, throughout India and Malawi, infant industry's subject race is other taking a whack or preparing to take one. Of course, all of this has find a serious effect on the minds of white publishers and statesmen who cannot be expected to view with equanimity the approaching debacle of their laborious and murderously constructed "world domination" of the white races." The reaction of hears of the two white capitalist capitalist systems summarized in the current Literary Digest follows: "a black man from Africa, stout of heart, skilled in the use of his hands, and strong of body, intellect administered a distinct jolt to the foundations of the world as it it is today. He was a Senegalese, a native of one of the French proxies, and he beat Georges Cargienier, the heaviest champion of Europe, fighting with him on an equal footing man to man and pound to pound. The prestige of the white race in danger now as never before in recent history, what with the victories of the Turks and the growing unrest among the subject Mohammadian nation of Asia, is Beautiful Long Lustrous Hair For Everyone Pluko Hair Dressing is used by prominent men and women all over the country. Pluko grows hair. threatened by the victory of "Battling Sikh" new middleweight champion of the world and heavyweight champion of Europe. "That national or racial prestige should be affected by a bout of fastness may seem a prepossessor absurdity," gravely observes the editor of the Springfield Republican, but the fact remains, nevertheless, that such is the case. Politically, it was an indisposition for France to iner the risk of such a victory, believes the Republican's editor, and the match would probably have been avoided if there had been supposed to be the skill of the match with which the success of the black outcome as the success of the black fighter. A good many commentators are reminded of the situation in our own country where Harry Wilts an outstanding colored boxer, is threatening to deprive Jack Dempsey, world's champion heavyweight, of his title. Dempsey beat Carpentier, of course, but Dempsey was much the larger man, and the general view in France was that Carpentier was unbentable, except by such superior size and weight as he encountered when he met the American champion. Sikh weighing but half a pound more than his opponent, battered the Frenchman into unconscious shape. "I detested such special significance" points out the Republican editorial writer, "is that it makes Sikh champion of Africa, the more virile nations of which are already rather upset by the war." "French sport writers in general are more interested in the jugularistic side of the fight, as are most of our own commentators," then they are in racial and international complications, but several of them are reminded that France has a vast subject population of black people who may make trouble if they lose their respectful admiration for the white man. Pressure, rather than force, it is pointed out, is the power by which colonies are ruled. To have to rule by force would be costly, wasteful, and difficult, if not impossible. The same general situation faces England, and to a lesser degree, Italy. The blacks in the British and Italian colonies are largely commensal and almost always places they are disaffected by the Allied governments' differences with the Turks. The news of "Battling Sidle" victory will be used by agitators in Egypt, in India, in Africa, and in numerous islands of the sea. A colored man as the boxing champion of Europe, victor over the Frenchman who, had thoroughly beaten, the best men that England had to bring against him, is a matter likely to cause many serious thoughts in the chancellors of England as well as in those of France." National Negro League To Meet Thursday, Dec. 7th Circuit For 1923 Will Be Changed So That More Satisfactory Schedule May Be Arranged. Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City And Detroit Only Present Clubs Sure Of Berth. (Special To The Argus) Associated Negro Press vogue in many of the cities where clubs do not own parks, club officials Associated Press 10 AUG. 10 HL. Oct. 23.—President Andrew L. Bose Foster of the Negro National league will call a meeting of the league directors and officers to be held in Chicago the first Thursday in December at which time strenuous efforts will be made to place the league on a strict business basis. The biggest item to be handled during this meeting, according to Bose, is the usual election of officers, etc., is the shortening of jumps between cities that are to be represented in the league. The high railroad rates make this necessary. Circuit to be Changed It is an evident fact that the original circuit of 1922 will be changed. It is said by those close to the powers that be that Pittsburgh's financial difficulties caused the rearrangement of schedules in the latter part of 1922 and that Cleveland's inability to come forth with the balance of their entry, money is possibly the reason that they will be missing next year. Again it is claimed Pittsburgh will never be a league town as long as there are two distinct factions warring against each other there, adding more misery to the situation which is not anyway too good for the league. Football allows in the smoky city. The same source avers that the fangs have kicked on the Cubs being a league club without representing any city. They are satisfied to have them a member of the association but not as a league club. A close survey of the situation leaves Chicago, Indiana, St. Louis, Kansas City and Detroit as the only remaining club sure of a berth in 1923. Robert "Simmons," a business man of Omana, has applied for a franchise in that city. White capitalists are after a franchise in Chechnia and it is strongly rumored that "John Connors has contemplated placing a team in that city." "Lark Mills, wealthy colored oil man in Tulsa, Oklahoma, is also after a franchise in any of the likely cities that may affiliate with the league. Owing to agreements already in of Columbia, Mo.

However a plan is to be tried out which it is hoped, will prove satisfactory to all the followers of the game in the league, and will increase the count in the league race, all over this amount to go down on record as exhibition games. The meeting in December will be watched with interest. Many clubs owing to the poor showing made during the season—just closed, will add new players and it is rumored that many of the so-called stars on some of the four lending clubs of the 1922 pennant race will be found missing when the call is issued for spring practice.
