KLAN BRANDS "K.K.K." ON COLORED MAN'S FACE MOOREFIELD STORY PROUD OF BIRTHDAY GREETINGS An Exponent of Truth and Justice VOL. XIII NO. 49 KLAN B MOOREFIELD S OF BIRTHDA Replies By Telling Colored People To Stand Fast, To Perseyere, Fight For Their Rights And They Cannot Fail. THE LARGER THE FORCE THE SOONER SUCCESS NEW YORK, March 30.—Moorfield Storey, of Boston, former President of the American Bar Association, and now President of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has addressed a message to members of the Association through out the United States, expressing his thanks for congratulations received on his 80th birthday and urging all citizens to stand back of the movement for racial justice and betterment. "During my life I have seen slavery abolished the world over," writes Mr. Storey, "I have seen serfdom abolished in Russia, I have seen the emperors of France, Turkey, Russia, Austria and Germany swept from their thrones, and their places taken by the representatives of free peoples. Bearing these facts in mind, I want you to realize that the tide of freedom is rising the world over, and that its progress is irreversible." Mr. Storey's letter in full is as follows: "To the Various Brunches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 'My Friends: "I have received from Branches of this Association all over the country, the most cordial congratulations on my eighteenth birthday, and most gratifying assurances of their regard for me personally. I take this means of thankening one and all for these messages of respect and affection, and as long as my health permits I shall continue to work for the cause which the Association was founded to promote. I bid them be of good cheer and persevere in their efforts. "The suits that are brought in the courts against those who violate the rights of the colored people in this country are most effective weapons, and every judgment in our favor is a precedent which discourages attacks. Let it be generally understood that it is not safe to injure a colored man or woman, that lynching is dangerous to the lynchers, that the colored citizens of this country are determined to assert their rights under the constitution and laws, and those rights will be respected, and the progress of the race will be more rapid. "During my life I have seen slavery abolished the world over. I have seen sordidom ended in Russia, I have seen the emperors of France, Turkey, Russia Austria and Germany swap from their thrones, and their places taken by the representatives of free peoples. Beating these facts in mind I want you to realize that the tide of freedom is rising the world over, and its progress is irreversible. Lead both countries of the world can the United States arrest this progress, as we are the first to announce the pro- position that all men are created "one and equal, and that all governments derive their just powers from the con- sent of the governed. "We have only to stand fast, only to persevere in asserting our rights and we cannot be beaten. 'Take no back- ward step, urge our fellow citizens to join our organization, to fight with us and not stand by more bookers on. That is a position of which every col- ored man should be ashamed. His help is needed and the larger "our force, the sooner will come our sure success." "You're truly. (Signed) "MOORFIELD STOREY" ANOTHER SPANISH WAR VET. RECEIVES D. S. C. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 1.

RAMSEY As a result of the State Bar Examination held at St. Louis University, February 23, 24 and 25, which 242 persons took, 138 were reported passed while 105 failed, one of the largest percentages of failure on record. Among the successful candidates were two St. Louis Negroes, Mrs. Zephyr Moore Ramsey, a member of the staff of the St. Louis, Argus, and Dr. J. T. Edwards, Mrs. Ramsey has the honor of being the first woman attorney of her race in the state of Missouri. Mrs. Ramsey, a Californian, is the daughter of the late James C. Moore, educator and principal of Livingston College, Salisbury, N. C., and Mrs. Moore, ploncer citizens of Pesadena, California, formerly residents of Knoxville, Tennessee. She is the wife of Attorney Fred D. Ramsey, local manager of the National Benefit Life insurance Company. Mrs. Ramsey received her early education in Pasadena. She took her college and law work in Howard University, finishing in 1922. She will practice in this city. Mrs. Ramsey is a member of the Epsilon Sigma iota Law Society. Mrs. Ramsey is not a relative of Representative Waltall M. Moore, as was erroneously announced in the daily newspapers. The fact that her diplomas and other credentials filed at Jefferson City bore her maiden name, Zephyr A. Moore, doubles accounts for the mistake. Dr. J. T. Edwards is a native of Pittsburgh. Pa. He has been practicing medicine in St. Louis since 1914. He studied at Morgan College, Shaw University, the University of Pittsburg burgh and the University of West Tennessee. He has an A. B. in an M. D. an LL. B. and an LK. d. degree. FOUR WHITES ARRESTED FOR ASSAILING NEGRO PHIRELDEPHIA. April 1. — A near riot resulted in 19th and Culburn streets, a notorious district herd when Joe Black, a cloaked shining stand operator, refused to let four Irish youths walk away, without paying him, after he had skinned their shoes. The supposed gangsters attacked him when he insisted on them paying, and a vicious struggle insured. Colored and white passively were showing signs of entering the affray when Detective Joshua Fank came up and interrupted the mule. He arrested the four whites, who gave their names as John C Neal, Denver Shields, Joe Ryan and James Ryan. They were each released on a $500 bond on a charge of disturbing the peace.

ADDS TO STAFF Company Doing Business In Twenty-Six States The National Benefit Life Insurance Company, one of the largest of the big Negro insurance companies, has announced the appointment of H. W. Sewing to be Regional Director of the company's Ordinary Department, his territory extending over Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas. Mr. Sewing is well known to the people of this and neighboring districts, having made a wonderful record as Agency Director in the same territory for the Standard Life Insurance Company, from whose official ranks he resigned when the Southern Life Insurance Company, a white company, of Nashville, Tenn., obtained control of its operations. Mr. Sewing is one of a number of Saturday Life's most important men whom the National Benefit has signed up for big jobs since the "merger" of Southern Life with Standard Life apparently removed the latter from the control of the Race. The National Benefit, whose operations in 1924 resulted in wide gains in territory and income, has greatly strengthened its already strong organization by the addition of such outstanding men as J. R. Pinkett, whose career with Standard Life won him a national reputation in insurance circles, and who is now head of the Washington company's entire Ordinary Department through out the twenty-six state; in which the company is licensed to operate; Mr. Sewing himself; William N. Sanders another of the Standard Life Stars whose bailiwick is Tennessee; Nat P. Johnson, who will have charge of Kansas City districts in the Ordinary Department; Hobart Taylor of Houston, Texas, widely known for his excellent work for Standard Life in that state, who assumes the direction of the National Benefit's Industrial Department for Southern Texas, with headquarters at Houston. In securing the services of those men, the National Benefit has performed a service for the Race, since their continuance with the Standard Life under white control would seem to have meant diverting their energies and ability from the path of racial commercial advancement," as Mr. R. H. Rutlerford, President of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company put the case in an interview with a representative of the Argus. "The management of the National Benefit, looking back over its twenty-six years of successful growth, recognizes that this success has been largely due to Race loyalty. It also knows that this growth has been coincident with and a part of the economic growth of the Race. The interests (of the National Benefit are, therefore, identical with the interests of the Negro people, as a group," added Mr. Rutherford, "and our company took an interest beyond the ordinary, selfish individual acquisitive one when CONTINUED ON PAGE SEYEN. TWO-YEAR-OLD PERISHES IN VALLEY PARK FIRE. The life of little Blanche Cox 2-year old daughter of Mrs. Ozella Cox was stifted out last Monday in a fire, which destroyed the Valley Park home of the child's grandmother, Mrs. Alice Nickens, while both parents were absent.

Bromfield, also colored, the inquest being held at Boley Monday. For J. H. McRiley acted as cornet and the jury was composed of two bankers, one physician and three merchants.

Deputy Sheriff McCorlenick and Chief of Police McCrillr, both of Bailey, delivered the defendant to Jalilir Roberts in Omanah This is probably the first time in the history of Oklahoma, and possibly in the history of the United States, where a colored man was held for number by a colored curator, colored here and colored officers in charge of all proceedings.

Prominent white and colored churchmen and social workers from all over the country were present. Sessions were held at the Plum St. Temple, 8th and Plum streets. Questions relative to the growth and future program of the interracial movement and problems bearing on race relations were discussed in open and closed forums. Coolidge Sends Letter President Coolidge gent a letter to George E. Haynes, secretary of the Commission on the Church and Racial Relation, which encouraged the work of the Interracial Conference. The letter read in part as follows: "The evidence of developing public opinion in support of e-operation among the racial groups in this country is a matter of satisfaction to all who have the nation's best interests at heart. The development of the interracial understandings through cooperative plans and the action of leaders of the races in local communities have contributed, largely to this increasing good will. Sees Value of Conferences "I feel that the national intercultural conference called * * * * to bring local leaders from many states to exchange experiences and compare policies and plans is worthy of endorsement and support by all who are interested in effective adjustment of race relations. I send my wishes for success to the two commissioners and baskets intercultural." Dear: Color Hatred One of the outstanding messages of the meeting was no address by Dr. Alva W. Taylor of Indianaapolis in which he declared that the current solution to better racial relation was the overthrow of an arbitrary illness and the keeping of a close relation with regards to race or color. He condened the judging of man by the tint of his skin or physical features, and warmed that one could easily fall a victim to his feelings and hate, but would have difficulty to come to logical decisions through sound judgment.

His name is Edward Augustine Savoy, and it has been on the diplomatic register longer than any other man in May 2., Savoy will be 75, and under the station, he must retire. He became the doorkeeper of the Secretary of State which that office was occupied by Humitt in Fish in 1893, and he has served in the same capacity for eighteen succeeding Secretaries, including Secretary Kellogg. In addition to being the oldest man in point of service in the diplomatic corps, "Eddie" has other claims to fame. it was he who carried America's ultimatum from Secretary John Sherman to Senator Pelo de Spain, and when "Eddie" delivered the ultimatum he delivered the minister's passports. The same year he accompanied Secretary John Hay to Paris, and when the treaty of peace was signed it was "Eddie" who aided the seafar of the United States to it. But, notwithstanding these claims to distinction, and the fact that he is as spry as many a man half his height, he must be retired, according to the rule. But "Eddie" knowing Gen. Dawes aversion to rule, has appealed to him and told the Vice President he couldn't get along on the retirement p11. "We'll see about that," was the general's reply, and he informed Washington in general and Secretary Kelley in particular that it way hud to be found to keep "Eddie" on the payroll, rules and regulations to the contrary, notwithstanding. DAUGHTER OF THE LATE MADAM C. J. WALKER MME. A. LELIA WALKER President and Owner of the Walker Manufacturing Company. Indianap- After traveling extensively in the old country a few years ago, Mme A. Lelia Walker, the daughter, and heirs of the late Madam C. J. Walker, upon her return to this country, while relating her experience abroad, said, "It's a wonderful education. The things we read in history and especially the Bible become so real after a visit to the Holy Land." It was this thought that gave dithia to her plan, whereby four ministers were enabled to make a trip to the Holy Land including 10,000 miles of travel and education with all their expenses paid by the Walker Company of Which Mme. A. Lelia Walker is president and owner. Because of the popularity and benefits that have come to the ministers who made this trip, the Walker Company has yielded in the popular demand for another generous offer, broader in scope so as to include professional, business, and fraternal students, etc. So far as known the most generous effort in the race in the point of travel experience, and first hand knowledge of foreign countries are the opportunities now being offered. by Nina A Lech Walker through the Madam C.

O. Clay Maxwell, pastor of First Baptist church for about eight years asks: "Why should not the Ministers of The Gospel exercise their rights as citizens and their influence as leaders of the people, even in politics. "Why should there be the cry of 'Grafting' because God's man seeks to influence the people for righteous government? "I present the vicious mindedness and loose tonguedness that have slandered, what should be. If they are not, some of our best citizens. "Perhaps, some ministers have received money in political campaigns for personal services, and some churches may have received money for use of their buildings from political sources, but First Baptist Church and its pastor have not, not only in this campaign, but in no other campaign, during the eight years of my pastorate. We have taken this position not because we thought it terribly sinful to receive money in this way, and we have no criticism for the church or pastor who have received this kind of money, but we have refused to permit any political candidate or others to feel that our opinions are bought and paid for. "If the politics of our city is so corrupt that anyone feels that the Minister has no business in it, then that alone, should challenge the best effort of the ministry to clean up "What right have we to complain about bad laws and corrupt government by corrupt men if Christians, ministers and ladies, sit idly by and allow the vicious element to run our cities? "I think the Negro Ministry and the Negro church must lend them self in a clean, lightened God fearing manner to everything that concerns God's world, to see that right贪念 and justice prevail.

LOUIS FIREMEN ASK FOR HIGHER SALARIES Voters Requested To Scratch The No. On Their Petition At The Election Tues. The St. Louis City Firemen are asking the voters to vote yes next Tuesday on their petition for a raise in salary. The coldred voters appreciate the reward of the local firemen and believe they should have salaries equal to pay in cities of the first class. This does not seem to be as according to the following statement: "In 1914, St. Louis ranked 4th in population and 5th in salaries. In 1925, St. Louis ranks 8th in population and 5th in salaries." The firemen are asking for $150 a month, although city cities pay more than that much. Detroit pays $200. The firemen maintain a hospital association and pay the cost of treatment of their injured out of their can salary. It is predicted that their request for a higher salary will be granted by the voters Tuesday, who can do so by scratching the "No." A Square Deal For Every Man SEVERELY FLOGGED Says He Was "Smart Nigger" And Charges That Victim Tried To "Pass For White" Taylor Was A Prosperous Merchant In Plymouth, N. C. PLAYMOUTH, N. C., March 30.—(Special) The Ku Klux Klan scored what the members of that hooded band called a "Ten Stripe" when they brained the forhead and cheeks of a Negro with the letters "K. K. K." The victim, Robert H. Taylor, a local merchant, has left the community for parts unknown to the public. The reports, however, have it that he is at Freedman's Hospital, Washington, D. C., undergoing treatment, in an effort to remove the K. K. K. letters from his cheeks and face, which were engraved with acid. From the best information at hand, the charge against Taylor was that he is a "smart Nigger." Indirect charge against him is, he tried to pass for, white. Just before he was kidnapped, flogged and branded, he was fused five dollars in a Kangaroo Court, where he was charged with resisting an officer. On leaving the court room, Taylor was met at the door by a hooded band, who forced him into a waiting auto, took him to a lonely spot about ten miles out of the city, where he was beaten mercilessly, branded on each cheek and the forehead with "K. K. K." and told to "beat it." Members of the Ku Klux Klan are well known in the community, but all deny any knowledge of what happened to Taylor. Nothing has been done to molest his wife or mother, who are still here. But it is understood that they, are planning to leave as soon as possible.

KARL FRAZIER, NOTED AMERICAN RACE, SCHOLAR FOUND DEAD IN BERLIN KARL FRAZIER, NOTED AMERICAN RACE, SCHOLAR FOUND DEAD IN BERLIN Preston News Service Berlin, Germany—Professor Karl Frazier, regarded by the German people as a "mystery man," a native of New Orleans, La. who was a teacher of twelve languages here, was found dead in his room.

The German authorities believe that Frazier died three or four days ago of gas poisoning caused from a leak in a gas pipe. When the rumor spread that Frazier was dead, children and students of the entire section of West Berlin flocked to the house. None of his neighbors knew much about his life except that he was a very quiet, studious and highly respected man.

The wounded man was taken to the hospital where it was first nominated, but he would recover. In spite of his bravery, the colored bite received no mention for his bravery. OFFER $10,000 FOR SECY.

The feature attraction will be Sarah Martin and her regular accompanist. Clarence Williams, the master himself, will appear in person. Mr. Williams is head recording musician with the Okek Company, and accompanies all singers whose songs are recorded. He is coming direct from New York for this engagement. Jenkins and Jenkins, man and woman, have a song, comedy and dance that ranks high in its class. Two other good acts are being selected to round out this unusually attractive bill. The management announces, however, that there will be no advance in admission prices. "SHUFFLE ALONG LIZA" NOW AT BOOKER WASHINGTON Miller and Slayton's "Shuffle Along Liza" Company is pressuring a musical comedy mangle at the Booker Washington Theatre this week. The company is of practically the same talented personnel as on a previous engagement here, except Amon Davis, who is now handling the comedy end. The show is a good entertainer, with a continuous string of good songs and dances, movies, and plenty of fun. The girls are comedy and graceful. The chorus is a bright spot of syncopated harmony and the show, as a whole, maintains the Miller standard. BLACK AND WHITE REVUE TO REMAIN ANOTHER WEEK AT GAYETY, MAKES BIG HIT Owing to the big demand for seats at the Gayette Theatre this week, the management announces that Jimmy Cooper's "Black and White Revive" will remain over another week. In an interview, Mr. Cooper started to the Argus that he regretted the disappointment of many colored patrons, who could not get desirable seats this week, and he had requested the manager to turn over the entire first balcony to our race for the show next week. The show is the biggest hit that has come to this theatre. This is due to Cooper's ingenuity in presenting a mixed attraction of equal colored and white performers. The whites occupy the first act and present a snappy burlesque with a sensational aerobic dancer as the brightest star and the clever Cooper always in evidence. The second, or "Black" act is the best ever seen on the Gayety stage. It opens with a mock trial of Cooper for presenting a fake show. The next is an Arabic scene with Sheikh and dancing girls. Here appears the "Seven Pashas," who are wonderful whirlwind aerobats. The show closes with the colored performance and this is a round of rapid-fire marth and synapsation which cannot be described in the little space allowed Julian Arthur air Past St. Louis product, leads an unsurpassed jazz band. Jazz Lily, Richardson, John and Jennie Bancer, Dainty and Susyay Brown, Oceania Samler, Martian Moreland, the Boostblack Quartette and a host of others keep the audience screaming for more of their cyclonic offerings. Thieves is a big show in it self alone. A midnight ramble will be given this Saturday.

Considerable attention is being paid during the assignment to accommodate our colored patrons most comfortably. Extra sections have been reserved on the balcony, so this wishing desirable seats, may be properly accommodated. It is necessary however to secure such seats without delay is otherwise disappointments may incur like during the first week of the etirement. Since Mr. Jimmie Cooper has always been most eager in encouraging a greater recognition of the remarkable talent of the colored race by placing a considerable number of brilliant colored entertainers with his attractions, I would consider it a personal favor if you would display your appreciation for this genial producer by giving his Black and White Revue your most loyal and generous support.

Phone, ‘Lindell 3843-M_ Shop Phone; Lindell 6383 3818-Page Avenue ELECT VICTOR J. MILLER FOR MAYOR Many have been the queries as to why we are supporting Mr. Igoe for mayor. In answer, and that we may make our position perfectly plain, we will say, first of all, that it is our belief that it will be the best for all concerned if Mr. Igoe is elected mayor of this city. We believe that the time has come when we as a group should no longer cast our votes for one party irrespective as to whom that party supports. We believe that the election of Mr. Igoe as mayor will be a death blow to the Ku Klux Klan in this city. Such a blow, at this time, will help all parties in the future because it is the Klan influence that is threatening to rend the Republican Party to pieces in this city at this time. We feel that it is our duty to cry and cry aloud when we see danger threatening the general welfare of all the people. With parties, as with individuals, whenever they become drunk with power, there is always danger of intolerance. We realize that our course is not a popular one; but somebody must take the lead we are to get out of the same old rut. We, of course grant to everyone the right to vote for whom he pleases. We seek no quarrel with anyone about the candidate for whom he will or will not vote. Our decision was reached after deliberate thought upon this matter, therefore, we feel that we are justified in advising the people to vote for Mr. Igoe for mayor. TELLS COLORED "HOLD FAST." We are profoundly impressed with the contents of a letter sent by the Hon. Morefield Storey, national president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People of this country, to "hold fast" and fight on if they are to win. We know of no man who has done so much for the race in the way of securing its rights as American citizens as has Mr. Storey. These words coming from him at this time urging us to hold fast, should stir us as never before to go on fighting our battles, giving our time and our money, as he has done, in our behalf. The thing that would cheer Mr. Storey most, in this hour of his ripe age of eighty years, would be to see the colored people themselves help to strike a blow that will mean their freedom by joining the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, of which organization he is national president. Mr. Storey serves without money and without price. If we had to buy the legal service he has rendered us, it would cost more than fifty thousand dollars. Let us think and act. Prostan News Service Our Yellow Americans Prostan News Service That human diversity are the elements being treated in America's most varied "welling pot," that operating in Hawaii is illustrated by the fact that a recent scholastic debate, the $2 million American participating in the final contest were representatives of the Anglo-Saxon, Hawaiian, Chinese Japanese and Portuguese races, with the Japanese American, Samoan great petite. The citizenship there has been watched apprehensively for a secuity of years in participation that it would alter and cause an emptiness that might eventually harm more severe than those brought by Maunga Ling but educators in Japan have been using their heir to prevent such an outrage, and they have successful to date. This they education, though, of these new American citizens, has kept the politics in the waft on the antient seat.

A plan grand jury was instructed to issue a subpoena for Richardson on the grounds—that he had published illegal matter in his paper. This was to have been the Wharton county grand jury and Richardson was to have been brought to the courthouse in the custody of the sheriff. At a given signal, however, the sheriff was to step aside and two patrols Americans, properly concealed and skilled in the use of the rifle, were to take shots at him. An attachment was actually issued against Richardson, but for some reason or other, the entire plan was never gone through. It is generally understood that Clifton Richardson is a "pain in the side of this section." A couple of years ago he was beaten up by rowdy age and friends have explained that it was the necessity of protecting his life that had robbed his famous editorial" of some of the fire of a few years ago. His paper has been most unpublished and fearless in publishing stories of crime attempted and persecuted against Negroes in this section. VIRGINIAN TO SUPERVISE BALTIMORE, MD., SCHOOLS BALTIMORE. Md. Apr. 1—Charles Reynolds, a nativa of Springfield, Ohio, and at the present time principal of the Booker T.

Apr. 1—For the fourth time this year, a colored student has won the covered honor of being admitted to the Phi Beta Kappa scholastic honorary society. The latest appointee is Mortimer Weaver, 19, a native of Washington, and an Education student at Williams College. Weaver expects to enter Harvard next fall. GIRL MAKES BRILLIANT .RECORD AT HEIDELBERG CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 1—A comely little lady, Miss Thelma Louise Taylor, who is the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Oliver Taylor, of this city, has figured prominently in the activities of the Holdelberg University at Tiffin. She is the only Race girl in the school and one of the most popular co-eds on the campus. This year Miss Taylor has captured the girl's tazey debating team. She began her brilliant college career by winning the school's extemporaneous speaking contest. Since then, she has been active parts in the Cayman Islands Club, the Philadelphian Literary Society and the school orchestra. Miller's Principles No one has claimed the reward. Russells wife had consented, to this living in Texas, away from her, which would seem to debar her from prosecuting him. We think that if Gov. Ferguson had been content to rest her retusal of the facts of the Russell case her retusal would have been generally ammended, but she permitted herself to write that "I have many presidents, either right or wrong, but the most vivid to my memory of them all is the action of Governor of Massachusetts a short time ago in urging to honor the requisition of Mr. John J. Cornwell of West Virginia for the interstate rendition of Negra charged with a felony in West Virginia who sought a haven of safety in your state and found it." The inference is indicated that the governor of Texas intends her refusal as a rebuke to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for an official act the governor of which she personally disapproves. The question arises the readers' rubble would governor Forrigen have condemned the Massachusetts Governor had the choice of his solicitation been white in color of Black? As she heard the news the Negro was not given up cause of the belief that he would be granted a fair trial. Possibly the Massachusetts executive erred in taking the position he did for the reason he is said to have given. But as a Governor now to permit her official course to be dictated either vindictiveness or prejudice, which fortunality will be imputed to Gov. Forrigen, will not tend to strength the moral faith that should obtain between the states. Pittsburgh Gallie-Times.

MILLER OBTAINS SUPPORT OF STRONG GROUP Leaders, At Banquet At New West End Hotel, Declare The Nominee's Election Is Certain Alliance between the leaders of the Republican forces who supported Louis P. Aloe, defeated candidate and Victor J. Miller, the successful nominee, during the recent mayorally primary election, was harmoniously consummated, and there is no break between them since Miller has won the nomination on the Republican ticket. This was the sentiment of the speeches, and also the spirit that was manifested last Friday night at a "Get-to-Gether" banquet under the aunpies of the Miller-for-Mayor Club, which was given at the beautifully appointed West End Hotel. The occasion was largely attended by more than 300 representative persons of our group from every section of the city, including J. W. Chambers, Dr. J. R. Castin, A. E. Malone, Thos. J. R. Wilson, Robert T. Scott, A. W. Lloyd, Ernest Patillo, S. E. Garner, J. W. McIntre, and J. W. Hutt, who compose an executive committee for the furtherance of Miller's campaign. Thos. J. R. Wilson, Geo. W. Lewis, J. W. Chambers, president of the club, A. E. Malone, Commiteewoman, Mrs. George Gallion of the 23rd Ward, Robt. T. Scott, 6th Ward, Commiteeman, and R. M. Zeffenfeld, 15th Ward delivered addresses, and predicted that Mr. Millera election to the office of mayor was certain, because he is eminently qualified by reason of his ability, honesty, and experience. Circuit Clerk, John Schmoll, and Attorney Robert Kratky, manager of Miller's campaign, were other speakers who cited Miller's platform, particularly that portion of his program relating to law enforcement pledges. Campaign charges against Miller in involving the Ku Klux Klan were strongly denied by Schmoll and Kratky. Mr. Miller was not present at the banquet. It was explained that he was ill suffering from throat trousles. There were features of the occasion that made it more than the ordinary political meeting. The banquet was magnificent. Elaborate decorations afforded a social atmosphere. Concluding the formal program, the guests spent several hours greeting each other while a well-trained orchestra furnished music. George W. Draper presided as master of ceremonies during the speech-making. Religion without joy is no religion at all, only a cloak. You will neer dream yourself into a character, you must build it up.

IF YOU DO NOT SEE YOUR MERCHANT'S ADVERTISEMENT IN THE ARGUS, ASK HIM THE REASON. WHY THE COLORED VOTER CAN NOT SUPPORT MILLER vote the one party ticket regardless of the circumstances? Do we concede our vote to any party just because we are colored? Do we realize that there is no bid for the vote that is already in a fellow's pocket? These are some of the things about which we should think. In times like these, we as a group, should have friends in all parties, more especially the two major parties. Let us not be frightened by threats or intimidation, but think—think for ourselves, and do not be moved by mere sentiment, because the mill cannot grind with the water that has passed. It is not what we used to be, but rather what we are today. If we are to improve our present status, it must be done by thought. Vote For William L.Igoe THE PEOPLE'S PAPER PART TWO TAKING NO CHANCES WITH THE KU KLUX KLAN WHICH HE HAS NEVER DENOUNCED Although He Declares He Is Not A Member, He Has At No Time Said A Single Word That Can Be Construed As A Denunciation Of The Hooded Band.-His Record Is Not Constructive. We find it necessary to oppose Victor Miller in his candidacy for Mayor, and endorse William L. Igoe, his opponent. It has been seldom in the history of the Colored people that we have found it necessary to proclaim our support of a candidate not affiliated with the Republican party, a party whose principles we have espoused and whose tenets we have cherished since the days of the immortal Lincoln. But there are times when our greater devotion to the cause of the Race, its progress and advancement, make this course necessary. Victor Miller is the so-called Republican nominee for Mayor but in our opinion he lacks that sincerity of purpose and action that finds expression in the principles of Republicanism. Ever since the birth of the Republican party its history has been nobly characterized by a faithful adherence to the doctrine of race and religious freedom, a doctrine upon which our future as a nation must stand, a doctrine which American forefathers wrote in blood, a doctrine which must not be trifled with in any phase of public service. Mr. Miller's associates are not to our liking; His expressions on the subject of religious and race freedom are not clear and concise. In this day and age we are taking no chances with the Ku Klux Klan and yet in all our surveys of Mr. Miller's activities and our conscientious study of his expressions and statements we find nothing either in his actions or his sentiments to warrant our faith in his opposition to the hooded band. It is true he denies membership in the Klan. In a rather pompous manner he offers $5,000 for proof of his membership in the organization of sheets and pillows. And yet what has he said of the Klan? Nothing. Has he denounced bigotry or intolerance? Has he flayed the national fight against race and religious freedom? Has he indicted the Klan for its un-American doctrines or inveighed against it for its usurpation of the functions of government? No. He has come among our people and told them of his friendliness with our race. He has said that no discrimination should be made against us. He points out that he elevated men of our race to positions on the police force. But nowhere does he denounce the Klan, nowhere does he denounce its leaders, nowhere does he speak of bigotry or intolerance. It is a weak defense of his position merely to state he is not a member of the Klan. We don't know that he has been charged even with being one. But we do know that he has been introduced at public gatherings by men of known relationship with the Klan. We know that the Klan is active in his support at least through individuals known to be associated with it. And we know further that Mr. Miller has accepted this support, does not seem opposed to it and has on no occasion said the slightest thing to alienate this questionable-backing. If this is Republicanism, then we have been misled. But it is not. Our great National platforms and our great State platform frankly denounced intolerance and the Klan. Our Governor denounced it and our present Mayor denounced it. But Mr. Miller has been silent and his expressions lack sincerity. We cannot promote indifference to this issue by indorsing his candidacy. He has been wanting in his frankness and his clarity. His attitude has been one of wavering and evasion, platitudes and catch-penny verbal devices. It will not do. The Colored voter has his race at heart; race and religious freedom mean much to us. Evasion on the part of public servants will not satisfy our people. Mr. Miller has had his chance to be clear, concise and to the point. He missed it. And having been weak in his own expressions we shall be strong in ours. Mr. Miller must be defeated. He cannot be entrusted to deal with the Colored Voter with that fine, American, patriotic fairness that characterizes his opponent. Our support should be thrown to Mr. Igoe in this fight if we are sincere in our interest in our own behalf. We asked nothing of Mr. Miller but a denunciation of our national enemies. We did not get it, nor will we. We are still Republicans in every fibre of our being and in every principle that goes to make up real American citizenship, but we can remain Republicans still even though our ballots be cast against one whose principles we believe to be against those of our party in the matter of bigotry and intolerance and race hatred. Mr. Miller has not merited the support of the Colored Voter. The Colored Voter, interested in his home and his city should not forget. EDITORIALS FROM THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, MARCH 27, WARNING AGAINST NEGRO LEADERSHIP It seems that the Hon. Victor J. Miller, the Republican nominee for mayor, in his addresses before Negro audiences, spends the biggest portion of his time in warning his hearers against Negro leadership. He takes the pains to point out a few and proclaim them "dangerous leaders" because they differ with him in the matter as to who should be mayor of the city. He has gone so far as to threaten all the Negroes by saying, "they are hurting your race and will cause the innocent, to suffer." Of course he thinks that it will scare the colored people, and, of course, if they through fear of some horrible visitation upon them, vote for Mr. Miller, it will tickle him up his sleeves. The truth of the matter is, we believe Mr. Miller has little or no faith in Negro leadership. One thing we note, that since he is the party's nominee, he doesn't seem to want any Negro as leader of the Negro voters to help him to victory. All the aspirants to leadership have been turned down "cold turkey" and a white man has been put in charge to corral the Negro votes for Miller. This is one of those little things that count 'big' and have a deep meaning to the fellow who thinks. It may be that a little study of this condition will reveal just why Mr. Miller regards Negro leadership as "dangerous." We, therefore, warn those who listen with itching ears to his denunciation of race leaders, that the The St. Louis Argus RED VOTER CAN NOT How To Vote For Igoe Colored voters should instruct their friends how to vote for Igoe.

As to the editor of the Argus, we have no fear as to the mistake we are making in this matter. We have the satisfaction of a clear conscience in having pursued the course we thought best for the people. We are willing to let the people be the judge as to our sincerity. COME LET US REASON TOGETHER We have said before, and we repeat, that we have no quarrel with the colored people of the city about who is, or who is not elected mayor of the city on April 7th. If there are those who want to vote for Mr. Miller, we grant that they have as much right to be sincere as those who are supporting Mr. Igoe. So, if we are honest, ourselves, we should remember that there others who are just as honest as we. There is no need of fussing and fighting over the office as we see it. We do not see why it is necessary to abuse anyone just because he differs with us in politics. It is quite natural that all do not see things alike, neither should it be expected of us to agree in politics. Come let us reason together in times like these. We should like to know, from those who have given the -tatter serious thought, is it best for us, as a group, in a city like St. Louis, to RECORD OF IGOE THROUGH CONGRESS AND IN HOUSE OF DELEGATES EXCELLENT He Has Never Engaged In Useless Promises Or Empty Pledges, But Those Of Our Race Who Know Him And Have Watched His Efforts In Public Service, Know He Is A Friend Of Our Race And People. In William L. Igoe, opponent of Victor Miller for Mayor of St. Louis, Colored-Voters can readily find those sterling qualities of statesmanship which lend themselves to the creation of popular favor. Here is a native St. Louis, the son of parents of modest means, left to shift for himself at an early age and forced to face a problem of self-control and self direction in tender years. He was born in North St. Louis, he has never enjoyed easy affluence, he has worked his way to prominence and public favor by sheer ability and stick-to-itiveness. From his earliest years when as a clerk at the Mercantile Library, he found time to educate himself, from the years of his public school life when his attentiveness was a matter of school gossip, on through his later years at Washington University where he studied law his life has been one of steady work, calm purpose, noble ambition and service to others. It was as a member of the House of Delegates that Mr. Igoe first became a city-wide figure. Those days were notable in our city's history and the news reporters were actively on the watch for lapses from honesty on the part of the city legislators. He passed through through four years of service in the House of Delegates and during that period not a word appeared in the public press and not a rumor spread in connection with his name except in praise of his activities on behalf of city progress. He made a notable record in devotion to public duty by constant attendance and attention and left a monument to his civic work in the foundation he helped to lay for the Board of Children's Guardians. Then came Congress. Much against his will he was practically drafted for national service. During his three terms there his record is without a blemish. Standing always fearlessly against the invasion of Constitutional rights and guarantees, his vote is in all instances typical of his clear understanding of the rights of man, whether his creed be of one or the other of the many creeds or his color one of the several. Throughout his Congressional career he served his Colored voters of his district with the same attention and care as he did his white adherents. And in public on all occasions he has denounced bigotry, intolerance and the evasion of personal liberties. Mr. Igoe, we are frank to say, has himself felt the sting of those unkind shafts that are felt by men of certain creeds and races. This in itself would be sufficient to guarantee to us his antipathy to the-proscribing methods of the Ku Klux Klan. But it is not all. He has not felt the stings in vain. He has publicly denounced them and fearlessly and forcibly inveighed against them. He has denounced the Klan and its works. He has demanded for every man the right to worship as he pleases or to enjoy whatever preferment his capabilities merit whether he be black or white or yellow, or whether he be Protestant, Catholic, Gentile or Jew. Throughout the war and through the days of reconstruction Mr. Igoe's record is an open book. We have watched his work and his ways. He has refused entangling alliances or pre-election pledges. His friends come from all parties and from all creeds. His honesty is a household word and his frank and open discussion of Municipal needs and Municipal affairs stamps him as a statesman eminently fitted and qualified to take up the burden of Mayor of this great city. Colored Voters, in Igoe we have a friend who will not engage in empty promises and yet hide under the cloak of "weasel words" and evasions. We know this man. We can find him and his friends always in the open. There are no pillow slips or sheets used by him or around him. All men to him are men and all principles are principles—not merely phrases. Nothing in the life or action of this man, nothing in his associations or his expressions of public concern can be found that in any way reflects upon him. On the contrary his life of public service and public achievement eminently fits him for the place his friends seek for him.

SundaySchool Lesson (By REV. P. F. BITZWATER, D.D., Dean of the Evening School, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (© 1922, Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for April 5 THE BLESSINGS OF PENTECOST LESSON TEXT—Acts 2. GOLDEN TEXT—Acts 2. REPENT and be baptized every day of your life; the name of Jesus Christ for the repression of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."—Acts 2:28. PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Makes People Glad. JUNIOR TOPIC—What Happened on the day of Pentecost. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Young of Pentecost. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Holy Spirit in the Church. 1. The Day of Pentecost Fully Come (vv. 1-13). 1. Significance of the Day (v. 1). Pentecost is from a Greek word meaning fifty. It was the feast held fifty days after the wave sheaf offering (Lev. 23:16). The wave sheaf typifies the resurrection of Christ (I Cor. 15:20-23). 2. The Gift—Holy Spirit (vv. 2-4). On this day the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples. This does not imply that the Spirit was not in the world before this, for throughout all the ages He has been in the world giving light and life to it. It means that from that time forth He would work on a new basis, having the crucified, risen and ascended Christ to present to the world. 3. Jon Whom the Spirit Came (v. 1): gf. 1:13-15. The twelve and others, both men and women to the number of 120, showing that the gift of the Holy Spirit was for all believers. 4. The Marks of the Spirit (vv. 2-4). (1) External. a. The sound of a mighty wind (v. 2). This is suggestive of the mysterious, pervasive and powerful energy of the Spirit. b. The tongues of flame (v. 3). Each of the 120 was crowned with such a tongue. Tongues show the practical purpose of the Spirit's gift-witnessing, and the fire indicates the purifying energy burning up the dross and making effective witnessing for Christ. c. Speaking in foreign tongues (v. 4). This was a temporary endowment for this special purpose. (2) Internal. This is seen in the transformation brought in the disciples. Though a little while ago they were trembling with fear, they now have great courage and self-passion. 5. The Effects (vv. 5-13). (1) The multitude were filled with amazement and wonder. The gift of the Spirit transforms common men into men of power and influence. (2) Some quacked and foolishly attempted to account for this remarkable occurrence. They accused the disciples of being intoxicated. The world today mucks men and women who testify in the power of the Holy Spirit. 11. Peterle Sermon (vv. 14-47). Peter's sermon is as wonderful as the gift of tongues. It demonstrates the presence and power of the Spirit, since Peter was a Galilean fisherman without literary training. His analysis is perfect. He begins with a brief defense and scriptural explanation of the phenomenon of tongues (vv. 14-21). This is followed by a threefold argument to prove the messiahship of Jesus (vv. 22-36). The conclusion is an appeal to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus. (4) Defense of the disciples against the charge of being drunk (v. 15). (2) A scriptural explanation. He showed that this was a partial fulfillment of that which Joel predicted would come to pass (vv. 16-21; cf. Joel 2:28-32) before the messianic judgment, viz. an outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the salvation of all who call upon the name of the Lord. 2. The Proposition, or Theme (v. 56) This was the messiahship of Jesus. 3. The Argument (vv. 22-36). It was threefold. (4) From Christ's works (v. 22). He was approved of God among the Jews by His miracles, wonders and signs which God did by Him in their midst. (2) From His resurrection (vv. 23-32); The old Testament Scriptures had foredoed the death, and resurrection of Christ (Ps. 16.8-10). (23) From His ascension to the right hand of God (vv. 32). The proof that He had ascended on high, was the wonderful miracle of the Spirit's operation in their midst, for He had said that upon His ascension into heaven He would send forth the Spirit. 4. The effect of the Sermon (vv. 37-42). Many people were convicted of their sins. Some three thousand repented and were baptized.

By LEONARD MASSENBURGE The first colored women to receive the degree of A. M. was Miss Mary Patterson. She graduated from Oberlin College in 1862. History records the fact that during the Civil War, the Negro soldier participated in more than four hundred engagements. Queen Lylla Lamkehn Liljokaal was the last independent ruler of the Hawaiian Islands, succeeding her brother, King Kakakaua in 1891. A diminution and then a final stoppage of the flow of sap to the leaves of trees and shrubs is the cause of them first changing color and then falling, according to a scientific theory. This is contrary to the popular belief that frost is the cause. On top of a mountain in Chile scientists are using the wind- to turbish, light for an observatory in which studies of the sun and weather are made. The first ballot ever cast by a woman in the Statq of Mississippi was that of Mrs. Lucy Tapley, a colored woman.
