Mississippi Gov. Defy The Law! A Fearies Exponent of. Right and justice. An Uncompromising Defender of the Colored Race. We fear only to do wrong. VOLUME IX. Missi NEGRO PRESS AGENT BRUTALLY INTIMIDATED Mississippi's Governor Defies Constitution as Jefferson Davis Did In Former Days. Agent of Crisis Sentenced to Work on County Farm and Legal Protection Denied Him. NEW YORK, N. Y., Apr. 29. -The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York made public today copies of telegrams passing between the Association and the Governor and Acting Governor of Mississippi, in which the Association asked legal protection for a lawyer to appeal the case of the Rev. E. R. Franklin, of Jackson, Miss, a Colored minister, who was fined four hundred dollars and sentenced to five months on the county farm at Tchula, Mississippi for selling the Crisis, the official organ of the Association, and whose lawyer, employed by Colored people of Jackson, Miss., the Association says, was intimidated by a mob which threatened to lynch him if he attempted to defend the Colored minister. The Association declares that a local Justice of the Peace refused the tender of a bond to cover the cost of appeal, declaring that Franklin would be lynched if released and that his only assurance of protection was for him to work out his sentence. The reply of the Acting Governor to the Association's request for legal protection, was a declaration that "If the editors of this sheet (The Crisis) would visit Mississippi, we would make an example of them that would be a lasting benefit to the Colored people of the South and would not soon be forgotten." The Association in its statement says that it is uncertain from the Acting Governor's telegram whether the "example" to which he refers means a threatened lynching or a court sentence of unusual severity. In either case, says the statement, the Association wants to know whether the right of appeal to a higher court is to be denied in Mississippi by mob intimidation and sustained by the Governor's office and whether the Negro in Mississippi has any rights which white men are bound to respect. The Association repeated its request for legal protection. The telegrams follow: April 20, 1920. Hon. Lee M. Russell, Governor, Jackson, Miss., "We are advised that lawyers employed by Colored people went to Tchula, Miss., April 15 to provide bond for appealing the case of Rev. E. R. Franklin, Negro minister, sentenced to six months and fined four hundred dollars for selling Crisis published by National Association for Advancement of Colored People; that lawyer was intimidated by mob of two hundred men who threatened violence if he dared represent Franklin; that Justice of Peace declined bond although it had been properly certified by the sheriff and was thereby made valid under the law; that Justice told lawyer Franklin would be lynched if released; that his only salvation was to work out sentence on county farm. Association appeals to you for protection for lawyer to undertake appeal and asks that you advise us whether you will guarantee protection to lawyer appeal case to Higher Court. Would appreciate wire at our expense." National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Jackson, Miss., April 21, 1920.

MAYOR-ELECT EVANS NOT INTERESTED IN MUNICIPAL HOSPITAL Chamber of Commerce Names Committee to Interview New Administration. Will Tulsa have a municipal hospital after the present city administration makes way for the new? This question was raised at a meeting of the chamber of commerce directors Friday, and that a decision might be made L. E. Abbott, M. C. Hale and I. G. Prosser were named as a committee to go into the matter with the incoming city administration Cyrus S. Avery, one of the five men who purchased the P. and S. hospital with the thought of making it a municipal institution, asked the chamber of commerce to get behind We kly Mail Edition TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, MAY 1, 1920 the movement. Mayor Charles H. Hubbard was one of the prime movers in the purchase of the hospital fifteen months ago when it was taken over with the thought of turning it over to the city when funds for its re-purchase became available. Those funds have not yet materialized and Mayor-elect T. D. Evans, it was announced, has stated that he is not interested in the hospital as a city property. Thus, the chamber of commerce committee was appointed with instructions to see whether the republican administration could be persuaded to continue the program outlived by Mr. Hubbard. Besides the hospital discussion no other business was brought before the directors. Twenty automobile dealers, from various points in the north and west who are handling the Tula automobile were guests at the luncheon. Predicts 25-Cent Loaves and Wheat Selling at $5 and $6. (Star News Service), ST. PAUL, Minn., Apr. 30—Wheat at $5 and $6 a bushel and bread at 25 cents a loaf is within the bounds of probabilities, Dean R. W. Thatcher of the university of Minnesota's agricultural department declared today. The shortage of farm labor according to Thatcher, is responsible for the threatened condition. "We must increase the production per man, rather than the production per acre," he said. "While the nations of the world recognize a standard eight-day. America this year possibly faces a shortage of three quarter billion bushels of wheat. Patronize the Star advertisers, they are your friends. Tomy Milton Sets New One-Mile Auto Record. (Star News Service) DAYTON, Fla., Apr. 28.—Tommy Milton, driving a 16-cylinder automobile, broke the world's record for the mile and the two mile distance on Dayton beach recently. Milton made the mile in 23.60 seconds as against the former record of 24.02, set by De Palma (according to officials of the American automobile association. In the two-mile event Milton's time was 47.16 seconds, the previous record being 49.54. Biß Sramble For Pie Counter is On More Than Fifty Colored Men Have Applied For Jobs Under New Administration. According to authentic reports more than fifty Colored men have applied for positions in various capacities under the incoming administration as reward for their faithful, service in behalf of the G. O. P., in the recent campaign. Most of these applications, it is said, are for places on the police force. At present there are three Colored men on the police force and it is quite likely that the new administration will reward a like number of the faithful adherents.

BEGGS, Okla., Apr. 29.—The great oil development in and around Eggs has attracted thousands of new comers seeking their fortune in this rapidly growing city. Many wealthy Colored men here have added wisdom to their money by building more commodious structures for business purposes and the old time shack is being rapidly discarded. The latest addition worthy of special comment is the establishment of a handsomely outfitted drug store, carrying a complete line of drugs and drug stundries by Dr. Gentry, formerly associated with Mr. Wallace at Oknulgee and other well known druggists at Muskogee, Dr. Gentry is a pharmacist of fine training and experience and is prepared to render the highest class service in his line. The doctor's family consisting of his talented wife, Mrs. Huldah Gentry and several daughters, will be a great gain to the social and religious circles of the community. Brief Flashes For Busy People A nation-wide "overalls" club has been launched in New York and an agreement is to be made by the members as to what they will pay for overalls and other clothing as well.

NUMBER FIFTEEN Muskogee Schools to Continue Full Term Muskogee Schools to Continue Full Term Patriotic Colored Patrons and Generous Citizens Contribute Liberally. (Star News Service). MUSKOGEE, Okla., Apr. 27. Thanks to the energetic labors of the Rev. E. B. Weaver, Chairman of the Executive Committee, Rev. S. S. Jones, president of the Association of Patrons of the Mukogee Colored Schools, the Hon. W. H. Twine and the full hearted co-operation of Superintendents R. H. Tighe and Heber Battles of the city and country schools, the funds necessary for continuing the Colored schools of this city the full term of nine months have been the Potomac—at least for a while. The raising of these funds was necessary because a deficit in the separate school funds had rendered it impossible to continue the Colored schools during the month of May. This would have had the effect of cutting down the school term for Colored children from nine months to eight months, while the white children would have had the full nine months. This naturally would have been an injustice to the Colored people of Muskogee, who as large property owners hold up a large ponderable end of the tax burden of the city. For a number of years this probability of a loss of school time, varying from a week to a month, has had to be met, but happily heretofore the difficulty was surmounted without the necessity of calling upon the Colored citizens en masse to voice their protest against a wrong, originating either through negligence of officials in providing proper for the education of Colored children, or through race prejudice. This year the loss of one full month seemed to be unavoidable because the funds were lacking to pay the teachers and other school officers for their services. To avoid this, several public meetings of the school patrons were held at the Manual Training High School and after discussion a permanent organization with Rev. S. S. Jones as president, was effected. It was decided, to place the matter in hands of a committee, and Rev. E. B. Weaver was made its chairman. This Committee was authorized to solicit contributions from any source and it was also agreed that the patrons of the schools should donate toward the amount necessary to continue the schools until June 1. The efforts of this Committee, headed by Rev. E. B. Weaver were crowned with success. The Colored Patrons of Muskogee gave $1,000.00, the local banks $500.00, Commercial Club (white) $800.00, and Rev. E. B. Weaver turned over $450.00, personally, with the casual remark, "Don't ask me where I got this." The County Commissioners dug up $1200.00 from somewhere or nowhere, and the City School Board contributed $863.00, which was likely the balance left on hand after disbursements up to the 1st of May. These donations and fund balances made a total of $4613.00, and will likely be ample for running the schools full term. Too much praise cannot be awarded these patriotic (Continued on Page 10). crats lining up solidly in opposition, Senators McCumber, republican, North Dakota and Shiells, democrat, Tennessee were absent and did not vote. It is planned to call up the resolution for debate in the senate next week and final action expected within two or three weeks. The senate foreign relations committee today ordered a favorable report on the Knox peace resolution. PAGE TEN Se MH TULSA I oA. d.

(Stat News Service) (MUSKOGEE, Okla., Apr. 30.—The community was recently greatly grieved and shocked by the sad death of Miss Ethel M. Hudson, which occurred at Albuquerque, N. Mex., on Mar. 20, last. Miss Hudson was the 24 year old talented and loveable daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. B J. Hudson, well known and most highly respected citizen of Muskogee. She was born in Navasota, Tex., and last Thursday her remains were brought from Albuquerque to this city for burial. Miss Hudson was one of our most popular young ladies and her admirable disposition and educational and artistic talents had fitted her for a bright future in her chosen profession of teacher. Like her parents, Miss Hudson was a faithful member of the Baptist Church and contributed not a little of her young life to church work. She had gone to New Mexico with the hope of being able to overcome the ravages of that dread scourge, tuberculosis. A fine seven pound baby boy was born to Mr. and Mrs, S. P. Jones of 319 North Greenwood street, last Sunday. Mother and babe are doing nicely and Mr. Jones is receiving congratulations of his many friends. First Published in The Tulsa Star April 17, 1920.

OPPONENT OF LEAGUE ENDORSED AS SENATOR Senaor La Follette Stood by His Beliefs and is Rewarded By Wisconsin. A recent issue of The Nation in speaking of Senator Robert La Follette of Wisconsin, says: "Pro-German, poltroon, seditionist, traitor, base misrepresentative of the spirit of the American people—let us see, what other names were applied to Rober M. La Follette? He was everything that an American ought not to be because he would not vote to plunge the country into war at Mr. Wilson's behest. And there was prophesied for him not only the ending of his career but its end in contumely and shame. All of this was in 1917. Now, three years later, the people of the State of Wisconsin have shown what they think of this man who stood by his beliefs during national hysteria by giving him nearly every delegate to the Republican convention from Wisconsin. The delegates for La Follette completely swamped his old antagonist, Governor Philipp, and that the Senator dominates Wisconsin as he never did before is now clear. We have no doubt that if no new candidates appears, the La Follette strength will be thrown in Chicago to Senator Johnson. This result of the Wisconsin primary is the more interesting because of the platform of the La Follette candidates. It opposed the League of Nations and denounced the treaty as a betrayal of the honor of the nation, favored a league for peace composed of all nations, and demanded the immediate restoration of free speech, free press, peaceable assembly, and all civil rights, besides opposing compulsory military service and peace-time sedition acts. It also denounced the Esch-Cummins Railroad law and the exiling of Reds except for crime proved in court. BRISBANE SAYS DOUGLAS WAS TOO WHITE To Be Enrolled as Black in Hall of Fame—But When Fred Married White, He Was Then Too Black. (A. N. P. Service). W. H. A. Moore, paragraph writer for the Associated Negro Press discusses attempt of Arthur Brisbane to rob the Race of Douglas and Douglas' fame, says: Arthur Brisbane and the Brooklyn Daily Eagle affect to believe that Frederick Douglas was "too white to have his name enrolled in the American Hall of Fame as a Negro." Ye Gods, what wonderful music the band plays. But what do we care about whether he was black, part black or wholly white? It appears that he was a big American whose name should be added to the Fame list. If such is the case, let it be put there and we'll keep our mouths shut about the "white" in him. America's contribution of white blood to the Negro is too black to talk about.—By W. H. A. Moore. The Rev. Northen, pastor of the Seventh Day Adventist Church of Muskogee, was an arrival here last Monday. PAGE THREE Effective Organization Demanded Effective Organization Demanded (A. N. P. Service). CHICAGO, Ill., April 27.—The personnel of the Railroad Labor Board as announced from the White House by President Wilson has been made permanent by confirmation of the United States Senate. The fight made by organized Race employees in railroad service to secure the appointment of the Hon. W. H. Lewis, of Boston, did not achieve its objective and analysis of the make up of the Board in excluding Negro membership and craft to be fully represented. While fair treatment is to be expected from the railroad management group yet, less can be expected of the representatives of the two white organizations who were trained in Southern railroad service, for organized white labor was never in command and the Race men were not permitted the right to organize. It is significant to note that St. Paul dispatches to the Associated Negro Press state that this week the Colored employees in the Great Northern system took a vote to withdraw from the American Federation of Labor and affiliate with the Railroad International Benevolent and Industrial Association, largely as a measure of protest against the policies of the American Federation of Labor's railway department of Race men in railway service. The decision to take the necessary steps to withdraw from the American Federation of Labor, followed an address delivered by President R. L. Mays of the railroad International Benevolent and Industrial Association who was instrumental in seeking to have Mr. Lewis appointed to the Labor Board. Following the announcement of the Labor Board, Mr. Mays is reported to have said that the interest of the Race men in railroad service will be best served by immediate, effective and complete organization of all craft in order that all plans might be fully endorsed by our men of any particular class from the grievances finally submitted to the chief Labor Board of Chicago. Mr. Mays further stated that immediate steps have been taken to be in a position to re-submit the name of a Colored man to the next President of the United States and hopes for a more effective and favorable consideration. NEW CONDITIONS DEMAND REPRESENTATION A. N. P. Scribe Urges Wider Interest In Educational Affairs. (A. N. P. Service). The nearer we get to the situa- The nearer we get to the condi- complex become the social relations within the group. This means that we are face to face with new con- ditions of contact, new considerations of conduct, and new and wider measures of social responsibility. Questions of education, therefore, assume the gravity of impressive and special importance. Particularly is this true when we begin to consider the educational welfare of the young of the Race. The administration of public school organization must of necessity receive a careful, first hand review in this connection. Sympathy, vision, knowledge are the elements of operation that enter into any scheme which relates to the machinery of education for the young. In the present time public school systems, the Board of Education plays a very important part. The administrative school policies, are here devised and their execution planned. Hence, in the larger cities at least much interest is given to representation in these boards. And while the Race element fundamentally has no genuine place in the scheme, American social instinct keeps alive distinctions which make racial representation an absolute necessity in nearly every administrative department of the national, state and municipal governments. We must insist on being represented in the School Boards. Not professional social welfare, representation, but independent, clear-sighted and full hearted representation. Too great emphasis's cannot be laid on the fact that we have passed outside of the haue of dependence and are now making our first steps in a sincere effort to overcome the proscriptions imposed upon us by unfavorable American public sentiment. Representation in the School Board is important, vital, imperative. Mr. OllieParker, who was shot and mortally wounded by his wife last Thursday night, died that night at the local hospital. His body was shipped to his former home, Cherryville, Kansas. The Red Wing Hotel has as one of its guests during the week. Mr. Lee Williams of McAlester, Okla. Mr. T. Jackson of Dallas, Texas, registered as a guest of the Red Wing Hotel. SHALL THE DE SHALL THE DEAD BE RESSURRECTED AND LIVF AGAIN? A. B. RICHARD I HILL (CONTINUED FROM LAST WEEK) At the time of Jesus' death, man had been going into the grave covering a period of four thousand years, and two thousand years since his crucifixion have they continued to die and practically all of them without any knowledge of God's provision through Christ for their salvation. It would be impossible therefore, for them to have a knowledge of the truth without first being awakened out of death. Therefore Jesus said, "All that are in their graves shall come forth. The good unto a resurrection of life, and they that have done evil (Who are all except the true followers of Christ) unto a resurrection by judgments." (John 5: 28-29 R. V.). The judgment here implies a trial, because there can be no judgment without a trial. There can be no trial first without knowledge, for the reason that even the laws of the land do not permit a man to be tried without his knowledge. Consequently, first will be awakening out of death. Second, they are brought to a knowledge of the truth. And third they are put on trial for life. The Apostle then makes clear what shall follow, and saying, "Times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. And he shall send Jesus Christ, who before was preached unto you, whom the Heavens must receive until the times of restitution of all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his Holy Prophets since the world began. For Moses truyn said, unto the fathers, "A prophet, Meaning the Christ, of which Moses was a type) shall your God rise up unto you of his brethren like unto me. (The anti-type of Moses). Him shall ye hear (Obey) in all things what soever he shall say unto you" (Acts 3: 19:24). Restitution means to restore that which was lost. Father Adam lost all through his disobedience. What did he have to lose? We answer, he had the right to life everlasting, the right to full liberty of the earth and happiness complete. Man has ever been seeking these things yet unable to acquire them. Jesus, by his death and resurrection bought them all for mankind. When he sets up his kingdom he will have at his disposal to give to the obedient ones these very things: viz., Life, Liberty and Happiness. Satan, the Arch enemy of the human race has ever desired to turn the people away from Jehovah and his plan. Jehovah has permitted or rather has not restrained him—to go his full limit and in due time Jehovah will make the wrath of the Adversary rebound to his praise. Satan and the Demons will know that the world is now in a time of great trouble, that millions of broke beasts are in the land, millions of widows and orphans weep and be moan the loss of their loved ones, because of the devastation of the great war, and the pestilence that has swept the earth for the past few years. Taking advantage of this condition of sorrow, Satan is putting forth his doctrine, as an Angel of light attempting to comfort the sad hearts by telling them again that their dead loved ones are not dead but are alive and progressing along the way to greater happiness. If he succeeds in doing this what has he done? He has turned away --- PAGE FOUR the minds of the people from the great word of truth, the redemptive plan of salvation, and thus seeming) accomplished his purpose of turning them away from God. This is the reason why spiritualism is so prevalent in the land today. But we thank God this condition will not long prevail. It is with joy that we can state confidently that within a few more years the dark veil of ignorance that overhangs the earth shall be lifted and the blindness that now afflicts the people will be turned away and they shall learn that Jehovah is the great God of love, that Jesus is the great redeemer and through his kingdom they can obtain the blessings of resurrection and restitution. In the course of these articles we confidently expect to show to the reasonable mind that the time for the overthrow of Satan's Empire is at hand, that the time for the establishment of Messiah's kingdom is at the door, and in consequence thereof the great title of sorrow, sickness and death shall be turned back and that millions of people now living on the earth and coming to a knowledge of the truth and accepting it, and rendering themselves in obedience to the Lord's law, shall live and not die. Then we can confidently say that at this very time there are millions on earth who will never die, not because they are immortal, but because the time draws near for the beginning of restitution blessings and we have confidence that when the people come to a knowledge of the truth that they will joyfully embrace these blessings and come readily up over the highways of Holiness, back to life, strength, health, and happiness. Restitution will mean the bringing back of the human race to a state of perfection that is to say, all those who are obedient under Christ's reign, and during that time the earth its self will be restored to a condition beautiful and grand like unto the Garden of Eden, being made a fit habitation for man. We have come to the point where all thoughtful persons desire to know why do the majority of the preachers teach error? The proper answer to this question in a short way is found in the fifty-sixth chapter of Isaiah, 10-11 verses, be sure and read it, Ecclesiasticism, or the Great Church System of the world, is made up of divers and numerous sect, and each one of these sects has its own Clergyman who teach diverse and numerous theories, inconsistent with them and each other. One class of preachers (Priest) have long taught and do yet teach that at death a certain class of men go to Purgatory there to remain for an indefinite season, and that the clergyman have power to say prayers and Masses to relieve them from their Purgatory suffering? This has proven to be a fruitful source of money making. This class of preachers have always had their members to understand that no one is ever relieved from Purgatory under a thousand years, and thus the clergyman set a date so far ahead that no living person could every pay the bill and therefore the obligation would descend from one generation to another Still another class of preachers teach that God long ago fore ordained and predestimated that a few persons would be saved in a Heaven of eternal bliss while the great masses of mankind, without reference to THE TULSA STAR.

They all look to their own way, everyone for his gain (Collection and honors) from his quarter (Sect or system)". Before the architect attempts to construct a building he first provides himself with a well defined plan and he works accordingly. The builder could not properly construct it without such a plan. It is most reasonable to conclude that the Great Jehovah God had a well defined plan before he began to deal with the human race. The scripture proves that he did have such a plan. "Known unto God were all his works from the beginning of the world." (Act. 15: 19). This plan, of course, has been kept secret from both men and Angels, and has been unfolded gradually and in Jehovah's due time. The mere fact that he has a time and that he does unfold it in a timely and orderly way leads to the inevitable conclusion that it is his purpose to permit those to reveal this unto the heady nor to those who are wise in their own wisdom. On the contrary we read: "The meek will he guide in Judgment; the meek will he teach his ways." "God resisteth the proud and showeth his favor to the humble minded." (1st Peter 5: 6). It would not be expected, therefore, that Jehovah would reveal his plans unto those who are wise in their own conceit. On the contrary his phophets wrote: "The secrets of the Lord is with them that reverence him." (Psalm 25: 14). To reverence God means to recognize that he is the Great first cause, without beginning, without end, whose wisdom is without limitation, whose power is infinite, whose justice is eternal and whose love is boundless. The man who attempts to please any earthly thing above his obligation to Jehovah cannot be said to reverence God within the meaning of the Scripture. The preacher that places his systems above the loyal and faithful service of God cannot be said to reverence Jehovah. The clergyman or any one else who would attempt to please man or to place his country or nation above and as of greater importance than the faithful service of Jehovah cannot be said to reverence God. The one who reverences Jehovah recognizes the world and the fullness thereof as nothing in his sight. The prophet has expressed the thought of such a one thus: "Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hands, and meted out Heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hill in a balance? Who hath directed the spirit of the Lord, or being his counselor hath taught him? With whom took he council? And who instructed him and taught him the path of judgment, and taught him the knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding? Behold the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance. Behold he takeh the isles as a very little thing. And Lebanon is not sufficient to be burned, nor the beast thereof sufficient for a burnt offering. All nations before him are as nothings- and they are counted to him less than nothing, vanity. To whom then will ye liken God? Or --- anything they have ever done or ever will, must spend their entire life in endlessiment. In another way of putting it they claim the destiny of each individual is fixed without the individual's knowledge or consent. Another class of preachers holds and teaches that God offers bread to every man the opportunity for salvation in Heaven, and that anyone who misses that home of endless bless does so by his own fault. Another and more modern school of everglenness, teaches that man is a creature of evolution, springing from proto plasm and developing stage by stage from baboon to monkey and monkey to man, and continues to progress until sometime in the endless ages to come he will reach a stage of perfection. There was a time when most of the Seeds seemed to believe in and teach the Bible as God's word of truth, but the more modern schools stave themselves "Higher Critics," "Savants," they deny the inspiration of the Scriptures, and hold that they are wiser than the men of old who wrote the Bible. The time was when these various schools of Theology were at war with each other, some going to the extreme of burning each other at the stake because of different views. In modern times, however they observing that their inconsistencies were so glaring, have sought a common union upon a common basis, each being willing to give up his pet theories and subscribe to no doctrine at all except an agreement to work together in the formation and maintenance of an Ecclesiastic Trupt. To accomplish their purpose they have united with the financial and political powers of the world. Many thinking people have long been observing the inconsistencies of the theories advanced by the majority of preachers, and necessarily have come to the conclusion that some of them if not all are teaching error. The result has been that many honest minded persons have been driven away from the churches, from the study of the Bible and from the Lord. The preachers realizing this fact, have endeavored and are endeavoring to rally their forces and organize a general system whereby they can all stand together, Mr. William T. Eflis, writer of "The Religious Bansbler," one of America's most reliable authorities, upon current religious events, referring to the present condition of Ecclesiasticism, says: "I find all men profoundly concerned over present conditions. Nothing is too venerable or sacred to escape the challenge of the war. The very existence of God has been called into question. The Christian Church is at her crisis. It is frankly admitted that sectarianism must go into the war scrap heap." Here is a statement that after centuries churchunity stands amidly before the world a complete failure. The people of the world know that the preachers are teaching errors and naturally the ask the question "Why do they do it?" The present condition of things was foretold by the Lord's servants. Hole men of old as they were moved by the Holy Spirit or invisible power of Jehovah. (2nd Peter, 1-21) The Divine mind fore-knew all things that would transpire and caused a record of certain prominent events to be made in advance. Prophecy, is therefore history written in advance of the happening of events. Only the Divine mind could have fore-known and fore-told such events. In this day and time it is not at all uncommon for preachers, to be asked by some of their lay-members an explanation of some rhases of the Scripture. A preacher always assumes to be a learned man and invariably he will answer his interrogator that the Bible cannot be understood by the laymen even though it was explained to him. In fact we hear very little explanation of the Bible any more. The most of the preachers have become indifferent to the teachings of the Lord, and are asleep as to the importance of events now transpiring through the prophets the Lord fore-told this condition saying, "For the Lord hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep and hath closed your eyes." The preachers, rulers, the sceers hathe he covered. And a visio (Understanding of his plan) of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, read, (explain) this, I pray there; and he sayth, I cannot for it is sealed." (Isa, 29: 10-11). The Apostles of old spoke of themselves as servants of God. The modern clergymen take the name of "D. D.", and call themselves the watchmen of their respective flocks claiming to be God's watchmen. Of this class the prophet of the Lord wrote: "His watchmen are blind. They are all cun dogs (D. D. S.). They cannot bark, sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber (Loving ease and comfort). Yea they are greedy Dogs which can never have enough and they are Shepherds that cannot under- J.

The first thing essential to the understanding of Jehovah's plan is a full and unreserved consecration to do God's will. This means that such a one will never seek to please himself, man-made organizations or systems, when to do so would run counter to the will of God. To ascertain God's will he must study his word, namely the Bible, and once ascertaining it, do his will without fear of man or hope of promised earthly reward. God promised that in due time his plan would be unfolded to man. His due time to unfold it to the true Christians precedes the time for it's unfolding to the world in general. Jehovah showed the prophet Daniel a vision of events to transpire covering a long period of time and ending in a time immediately preceding the full establishment of Messiah's kingdom on earth. Daniel did not understand the meaning of the vision, because it was not intended to be understood in his time. Daniel said: "I heard but I understood not." In other words, Daniel beheld the vision and hear the words of explanation and yet did not comprehend their meaning. Then he said, "Oh my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?" And he (Jehovah) said: "Go thy way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end. Many shall be purified and made white and tried; But the wicked shall do wickedly and none of the wicked shall understand but the wise shall understand." (Dan. 12; 8-10). Bible chronology shows that "The time of the end," is a period of years during which period those who reverence Jehovah will be permitted to understand his secrets or plans and that these are they who are termed "wise" not according to earthly wisdom, but wise according to God's manner. The modern clergyman do not pretend to study and teach the Bible, but they study theology, man-made theories. They call in question the very authenticity of the Holy Scriptures and depends upon the wisdom of the world. Concerning such class it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath God not made foolish the wisdom of the world? (1st Cor. 1: 19-20). Jehovah revealed to Daniel and caused him to record certain things as a keynote in order that the Godly wise might understand, saying: "But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." During the past half-century, wonderful methods of transportation have come into existence. The railways gird the earth. The great steam ships fly with rapidity the mighty seas. The airships fly as birds from place to place, and thus the powers of electricity, steam and gas have brought the people in close contact with each other to witness a great running to and fro such as the world before has never known. At the same time there has come a marvelous increase of knowledge along every line. The modern $1. GARDEN SPORT HATS 25et.

The Reverential student of God's word points to Daniel's prophecy and says: "Behold Divine testimony enabling us to determine where we are on the stream of time." Most of the preachers are wise in their own wisdom and understand not. The meek persons who reverens God is wise according to the Divine order and he understands and rejoices in the unfolding of Lehovah's plan. The reverential student of God's word learns that Jehovah, through his prophets, long ago described in detail, the railway train speeding through the land and the conductor gathering up the tickets of his passengers and the train unloading it's burdens at the station, (Nahum 2: 2-6) and they recognize this as another evidence that we are in the time of the preparation of the setting up of Messiah's kingdom. The same student finds that the modern airship which has astounded the world and for which the wise of the world have applauded men, was fore-told centuries ago by the prophets of the Lord. (Isah, 60: 8). The wise student is again reminded that wireless telegraphy, which has revolutionized communication among men in modern times was centuries ago fore-told by Divine wisdom in his Holy Word. And he begins to realize that God has a great plan and that the time is due for the meek and teachable to understand it. The clergy as a rule ignore the divine word, and realizes upon man-made wisdom and therefore they are in the dark and do not understand the great plan of salvation. saint the great plan of salvation. I beg to warn the preachers that the time has come when the world is demanding the whole truth on all subjects and those who claim to be the representatives of God will have to come clean and true on this Bible question or get out of the way. Friends, you may be surprised when I make the following charges against the majority of preachers. They stand guilty before God in that they have misrepresented his great plan of salvation. They are guilty before the laws of the land in that they have long been receiving money, honors and things of value under false pretense. They have busied themselves making the people believe that if they (The people) would pay them (The preachers) good fat salaries, build fine church houses, keep up Church dues etc., a Heaven of eternal bliss would be their portion at death but if they did otherwise a life of eternal misery in fire and brimstone would be their lot. As a matter of fact there is not one word in the Bible supporting such doctrine and no pastor worthy of the name will attempt to prove such blasphemous doctrine by the Bible. And yet with a full knowledge of the falsity of their claim have collected millions in money and lived a life of ease and slumber. They are plainly guilty under the laws of the United States for receiving money under false pretense. Now I am fully aware that the charges I am making against the majority of the preachers of the world is not calculated to make me (Continued on Page 5). PAGE SIX BRIEF RACE NOTES BRIEF RACE NOTES Star-graphs Cathered from Mani Sources Illustrating Persistent Race Progress. The palatial home in Greenwood Park, Greenwood, a pleasure park of Nashville, Tenn., of the Rev. and Mrs. Preston Taylor, was the resplendent scene of a reception tendered to the stockholders of the One Cent Savings Bank, with Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Napier Langston as the chief guests of honor. Mr. Langston had served notice of his retirement as cashier at an, early date, and the reception served the double purpose of entertaining the stockholders and according to Cashier Napier the honor due him for sixteen years of highly efficient and faithful service in the interest of this noted One Cent Savings Bank. Mr Langston is a descendant and talented representative of two of the most distinguished Negro families America has produced. One of his ancestors is the late educator, and orator, Hon. John M. Langston of Washington, D. C., who in his day was the cultured conferee of Frederick Douglas, Peter H. Clark, F. B. S. Pinchback and Hiram P. Bevels, the early day champions of freedom and citizenship for the Negro. On the other side, he is descended from the most eminently respected and worthy family of Napiers of Nashville, Tenn., one of whom the Hon. J. C. Napier served as Register of the U. S. Treasury and has been known for years as one of the ablest Republican leaders in the Southland. The Southern Negro Base Ball League organized under the auspices of the Negro Southern Base Ball and Amusement company, began its series of games for this season on last Monday, April 26. The famous A. B. C. Club of Indianapolis opened the season at Nashville that day, playing two games. The African Methodist Episcopal Church will open its general conference at St. Louis, Mo., in the historic St. Paul Church on next Monday, May 2d. This conference promises to be the record breaker conference as to the matter of attendance on account of the large number of candidates for highest honors and the friends who will be on hand to boost the chances of their favorite for bishop. Dr. H. L. P. Jones who has served as secretary since the last conference is authority for the statement that there are fully forty eminent A. M. E. clergymen seeking promotion to bishopric honors. The Kansas City delegation of business men headed by Prof. J. R. E. Lee, principal of the Lincoln High School, were very royally entertained last week while in the cities of Chattanooga and Nashville, Teen. At the latter city they were welcomed at the Auditorium of the State Normal by Governor A. H. Roberts, who was introduced to the audience of students and citizens by Prof. W. J. Hale, president of the school. Governor Roberts among other things declared: "If the Ten Commandments were adhered to and the Golden Rule practiced by individuals, states and by nations, there would be no need of a League of Nations, no wars nor rumors of wars." The Meharry Bible Training School under directorship of Rev. Caleb Lawrence held its commencement exercises last week and ten graduated. Major John R. Lynch, one of the old time reconstruction leaders of Mississippi, who was euched out of his seat in Congress by Chalmers, a white man, is touring the country in interest of candidacy of General Wood. Major Lynch was recently in Omaha, Neb., and Memphis, Tenn. The Rev. W. T. Vernon, formerly of U. S. Treasury, and pastor for last five years of Avery Chapel, A. M. E. Church, Memphis, Tenn., is candidate for election of bishop at A. M. E. Conference next week. A meeting of representative Colored men was recently held at Jackson, Miss., presided over by Dr. S. D. Redmond, son-in-law of the late Senator Hiram R. Revels, and resolutions were adopted earnestly petitioning the Mississippi legislature for aid educationally and otherwise. The petition bravely called attention to the lack of equal educational opportunities and denial of justice and protection under the laws of the state. A branch postoffice has been established at Gary, Ind., at the Majestic Drug Store for special benefit of the large Colored population of which this store is the center. Robert S. Simmons, formerly clerk at the post office, Boley, Okla., has charge of the substation. Joseph Peoples also of Boley is associated with Simmons. William A. Joiner, who has served Wilberforce University, Wilberfore, Ohio, as superintendent of the Normal and Industrial departments for a number of years, has been de posed. Friction between the boards controlling this school brought about his dismissal. Memphis, Tenn., has the distinction of having aside from numerous Colored enterprises the following as especially noticeable: Two banks with a million deposits; a Roddy Chain of 14 grocery stores; immense casket factory and two elaborate hospitals. N, B, L. STARTS SPRING DRIVE FOR MEMBERS Week of May 23 to 29 Set Apart by National Secretary. (Special). WASHINGTON, D. C., Apr 29. In practically every city in America during the week of May 23rd an intensive membership campaign will be "hot on the trail" and no man or woman who has the business interest of the Race at heart will escape the energy, "ginger" and "pep" of the Local Campaigners. The entire machinery of the National League is cited up and ready to go, expressing its unlimited power through its Local Leagues. Every officer is pledged to put his full personality into this effort, and the personality of the officers of the National Negro Business League is no mean asset. A special sermon is being suggested for the first day of the campaign which falls on Sunday. Ministers all over the country are going to respond to the call of the Leagues and are asked to preach from the text; "Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings." Proverbs 22-29. Every forward-looking man and woman in the country will be willing to lend a hand in this effort to put over this movement for business organization among Colored people. The National Negro Business League has established headquarters at Washington, D. C., 1816 12th St. N W and solicits inquiries from those interested in carrying forward its progress. 14NING CAR WAITER BECOMES LEADER OF MEN Colored Man Occupies Important Post at Goodyear Rubber Works. AKRON, O., Apr. 28.—James Miller, Colored, one time dining car waiter, is a member of the "House of Representatives" of the Industrial Republic of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company plant here. Miller was chosen over two white opponents in office primaries, and ran for the office under protest. He now helps to guide the business destinies of 25,000 Goodyear employees, most of them white. The "legislator" introduced a cooperative store bill as one of his first official acts and later backed a plan for better education of Negro employees. He is a member of several important committees, including plant sanitation, wage-scale and factory education. He is 31 years of age.

COMMISSION PROPOSED TO STUDY RACE PROBLEM Senator Spencer of Missouri Introduces Bill for Creation of Commission. (Star News Service) WASHINGTON, D. C., Apr. 29. Senator Spencer of Missouri today introduced a bill providing for the creation of a commission on the race question. The commission would be composed of nine members, three white men from the North, three white men from the South and three Negroes. Spencer said he regarded this question as a potential one. The commission would be directed to study the race problem from every angle and make recommendation for possible legislation to remedy the situation in this country. After introducing the bill, he said he thought there should also be some women on the commission. Chandler Visitor at K. C.

(Star News Service). MADRID, Apr. 29.—King Alfonso was fined two pesetas for walking across the grass in the gardens of the Alcazar. Every member of his suite who followed the king across the greensward likewise was fined. The first intimation the royal party had that it had committed an offense was when a guard approached and said: "Your majesty, walking on the grass is forbidden. I must fine you according to my instructions." At first King Alfonso was abashed, then he laughed and paid the money Later the mayor of the town called at the palace and apologized to the king, but his majesty told him the guard had acted properly and should be rewarded for devotion to duty. ST BE DODS NO GOOD E BEST AT JAZZ MUSIC Shouting Rev (A. N. P. Sc. JAZZ MUSIC STIRRED MOURNERS' FEET Shouting Revivalists Near Met Their Waterlio. _____ (A. N. P. Service) KANSAS CITY, Mo., Apr. 30.—Syncopated songs stopped the show at a Kansas City, Mo., revival recently. A chorus of sixty Colored singers, "jazzed" the gospel hymns they sang and the audience applauded the performance so much and so vociferously the speakers billed for the occasion were very nearly denied a hearing. All of which goes to prove that color has a high place in the consideration for life although it may not cut much ice as a skin possession. Jazz is a moving something. And whenever used, it serves to soothe and to stimulate the tired nerves of the average dyspeptic and hysterian who styles himself the savior of the integrity of white blood. But thanks to the heavens above us there is no color attached to spirit. That's why jazz nearly stopped the show at the Kansas City revival. Since your signature so that letter will be printed.

WOMEN WO Mrs. Carrie C es Belief pended (Star News 2) IISH WOMEN WON'T VOTE HER STRAIGHT Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt Expresses Belief in Political Independence for Women. (Star News Service). NEW YORK, N. Y., Apr. 30.—In a recent interview, Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president American Federation of Women said: "For all her admonition to voters to join parties, Mrs. Catt does not stand for hidebound party adherence. Over the matter of splitting tickets she showed the understanding, the study and the analysis which marks her attitude on all political questions. "Independence in politics is the most wholesome influence in American politics," she said. "If there were no independents, no uncertain vote, it would soon be learned just how many Democrats and just how many Republicans there were in the country. A regular number could be counted upon by each party. Then the party counting the greater number would become all powerful. We should have an autocratic, a machine-made, institution which would make us, citizens of a republic, little better off in the way of government than the people living under monarchies and autocracies. The group of people who are independent in politics give healthful, normal stimulus to individual thought and action. As one great citizen said; 'They are as a pudding stick to keep everything stirred in to activity.'" As to the Mrs. Catt being segregated, the states in have voted f and in other e have voted has never be More women fluences to o of an issue o en do not ve "In the vtional woman practice long be estimated. As to the so-called "woman vote" Mrs. Catt believes that it cannot be segregated. She pointed out that in the states in the West where women have voted for a number of years and in other countries where women have voted for many years there has never been a definite sex vote. More women may throw their influences to one side than to another of an issue or a campaign, but women do not vote as a sex. "In the years to come, after national woman suffrage has been in practice long enough for results to be estimated, the women voters will be felt. They will accomplish certain things through their power to vote, but the changes will be gradual and universal." Rev. W. O.

Service, Incorporated, the successor of War Camp Community Service, are aiding in plans which are being made to raise funds to continue the work for the people themselves. Just why the service to the community rendered under the auspices of Community Service, Incorporated, through these Colored workers is so valuable an asset in community welfare and individual contentment, a glance at a few cities will show. Atlanta with its ten Colored girls' club and its thirteen classes in cooking, millinery, stenography, and typewriting that furnish opportunities which are not otherwise available, and Chester with its many activities for recreation, its Colored Community Center, with free shower-baths, and a printing press where boys gain practical knowledge of printing, are expressions of Community Service. Hattiesburg's popular night-school classes for Colored men working in industries; Richmond's community sings; the regular dances, games athletics and sings that are part of the activities for Colored civilians as well as soldiers in approximately eighty-eight cities, suggest how much the community itself is receiving the final benefits of the service first extended to its soldiers. Community Service is the medium through which the residents of a community get together and become members of the community, with a real interest in its welfare, prosperity, and stability. It takes the jolts out of the rough roads and makes the journey pleasant. It makes it possible for all the people to fill their leisure time with wholesome, enjoyable recreation, and to secure the fullest and richest life. Southern Workman. A. ALICE JOYCE Many of the greatest men and women of the stage have held their names associated with one certain play. Alice Joyce seems destined to have the same distinction. The Vitagraph star has had success after success, but, like all other motion picture stars, she has been without a role that stood out separate and distinct from the rest. In "The Vengeance of Durand," adapted from Rex Beach's powerful story adapted by Mr. and Mrs. George Randolph Chester, she has the best role in her notable career. COLONEL ROOSEVELT BELIEVED THAT BLOOD WILL TELL He Considered His Colored Man Servant A Better Man Than the Average Run of Whites —Which is Not Particu- larly a Compliment. (Star-Graph Special). John J. Leary, Jr., in a recent issue of McClure's Magazine relates historically interesting conversations with the late universally revered Colonel Theodore Roosevelt on "The Heredity Strain" and "Remembering Friend and Foe." For the edification of Star readers we reproduce the conversation on "Heredity Strain," because one of our Group, Charles Lee, the Colonel's man-servant, is used to illustrate the influence of the strain of heredity from one generation to another. The conversation follows: "Once, when Colonel Roosevelt declared that Dr. (now colonel), Derby, what married his younger daughter, was a fine fellow of whom I am as proud as I am of my blood sons," I remarked that Dr. Derby came from a splendid family—the Derbys of Old Salem, in Massachusetts. "Yes, I knew," he replied, "it is PAGE SEVEN as you say, a splendid family. I do not care what any man says and I'm no ancestor worshiper—blood will tell in a man, horse or a dog. In all cases you will have culls at times, and throw backs, but in the long run and on the average, you will find the blooded animal wipes. "It is so with our American Negroes. Take my boy, Charlie Lee, for instance. Charlie came to me from Captain Fitzhugh Lee, whose boy he had been. Charlie is a first-class citizen, careful, industrious, cleanly, thrifty—a better man than the average run of whites. Charlie's father was General Robert E. Lee's body servant; Charlie takes his name from the Lee family. The father was a superior Negro. Doubtless, if we could go back, we would find that his father's father, and beyond were well above the average of the slaves. "Charlie inherits his good points from his parents, from those people I have been talking about. He is as loyal as a bulldog, perfectly attached to the family and devoted to the children. If it was the life of any one of them or Charlie's Charlie would not hesitate one second. If he were lucky to escape himself he would not think he had done anything out of the ordinary, and he probably would resent being told that he had. Charlie had an equally high opinion of his adored Colonel. "Colonel Roosevelt has been splendid to me," he said one day. "He's more like a father to us all than an employer. You just be up at the house if one of those Irish girls is sick. The Colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt are just as worried as though she was one of the children and she would not get any better care if she was one of the children. "But," laughed Charlie, at the conclusion of this—for him—very long speech. "what's the use of talking—quality folks are quality folks wherever you find them. The Colonel grinned when I one day repeated Charlie's speech to him. "It's about what you would expect of Charlie," said he. "If he were to leave me for any reason, you would find him looking about for some family he felt he could, with honor, attach himself to and he would serve it as loyally and as proudly as he now serves me. Mere money could not get him if what he terms 'quality' were not there. And, if I make myself clear, Charlie would honor any family he might go with him. If I did not know anything else about it, the fact that Charlie had put his O. K. on it, would tell me its members were worth while people." "But Charlie won't go. He'll stay with Mrs. Roosevelt and me as long as we live, and then, in all probability, go with one of the children. It will be one of those things everybody will take for granted—Charlie is going with Ted or Ethel, or one of the others." Let Us Heed Japan's World Lesson. Japan is one of the five great world powers. Twenty years ago, any prophecy that would have included the Japanese Empire among the great powers of today would have been laughed out of the court of the popular opinion of that time. But today the fact stands unchallenged. The skill with which these people have unravelled the complexities of the occidental social order and made them to serve the purposes of the Japanese social instinct is indeed one of the marvelous social achievements of all time. Certainly nothing in modern times matches it in brilliant achievement. It is dominant in aim, all-preading in spirit and has clearly established the high social ability of a group far removed from the so-called Arvan elements of the human family. We should not bother ourselves with contemplations of the probable effect on the future historical course of human society that the rapid social rise of the Japanese naturally awakens in us. It is the lesson it teaches that matters. To the American Negro it comes as a healthful social stimulus and cannot do otherwise than impel him to more purposeful social endeavor than has characterized his social aims up to this time. The Japanese are the Social Equals of any of the people on the earth. They have become so because they possess an abiding faith in their own social worth. This is the world lesson they have given us. It will be well with our kind if we heed the teaching and practice the precepts it puts within our easy reach. Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, denounces the present American Congress, asserting it has failed on the peace treaty and reconstruction and to relieve in any way the conditions under which the people suffer through the high cost of living. He classes this congress as the "no" congress and suggests its replacement by a "yes" one.
