TO DEMAND JUSTICE, Sept., 22 Nestor A Fearies Exponent of. Right and justice. An Uncompromising Defender of the Colored . Race. We fear only to do wrong. VOLUME X TO DE VOLUME X NATIONAL DRIVE FOR JUSTICE (A. N. P. Service) Chicago, Sept. 10.—Wednesday, September 22, has been set down as a day when there will be a "National Drive for Justice." It will be celebrated throughout the country, and will be the greatest effort for equal opportunity ever put forth in the history of the race. The people have come to the parting of the ways. They have reached a decision that lynching in the United States must be stopped, and that all citizens should have equal rights before the law. They are determined to impress the importance of these facts on the minds of the American people, and they have selected September 22nd, commonly known as "Emancipation Day," for the time to present their claims. Already throughout the country, not only among the Colored people, but the whites as well, there is a great stir of interest. The Colored people are aroused and enthusiastic, because of their anxiety to bring about better living conditions. The white people are aroused because never before in the history of the nation has there been such a universal desire to give encouragement to the claims of the Negro, because of the desire to do what is known to be right. Every race newspaper throughout the country is heralding the event with flame heads and bold type. Daily newspapers are supporting the plans in a manner that is amazing for their fairness. People are saying: "I have never seen anything like it in my life. Surely a better day is coming for all." The speakers who will address these various gatherings are men and women of national reputation. Some of them for more than two score years have been fighting the battles of the race, and they say that with the conclusion of this day, history will be made. Younger men, prominent in the business world, "The New Negro," who have made for them selfs a new place in the field of success, are setting aside their business interests to give universal attention to the day. PATROLMAN FRENCH RESIGNS Chicago, Sept. 10.—Policeman Martin V. French, the oldest colored patrolman on the Chicago force, has resigned. He has been a member of the department for thirty-seven years. He leaves a perfect record and at the time of his resignation was attached to the Cottage Grove avenue station. COLORED WOMEN ORGANIZE FOR BUSINESS. New York, Sept. 10.—Several hundred Colored women organized under the name of the Women's National Fraternal Business Association, are launching a campaign to raise $250,000 for a headquarters and clubhouse. The association has been incorporated to aid colored women and children. INTER-RACIAL HARMONY SOUGHT. (A. N. P. Service) (A. N. P. Service) New York, Sept. 10.—Belief that the race riots between Negroes and whites can be avoided has led several prominent social workers of the country to form a society for the promotion of harmony between the two races. The committee for the reconciliation of the races is not in favor of the isolation of any race. It has gone on record as being opposed to the resolution passed by the convention held recently in Madison Square Garden calling upon all Negroes to emigrate to Africa. Fenton C. Johnson, the Negro poet, speaking for the committee, explained that such a movement would only result less for both races. in a loss for both the "The Negro is an essential economic element in the welfare of America," he said. "The only solu- tion of the present problem is for the blacks and whites to know each other better. That is the purpose of this committee." DEPARTED LEADER'S VOICE PRESERVED. (A. N. P. Service) Chicago, Sept. 10.—The voice of Booker T. Washington is to be heard again through the courtesy of his younger son, E. David Washington. About eight years ago, Dr. Washington, at the request of an official of the Columbia Graphophone Company, had a record made of his famous Atlanta speech, the speech which brought him into world-wide fame. Only one record was made for Dr. Washington, and since his death it has been in possession of his younger son Davidson. Young THE TULSA STAR Washington treasured it more than any other possession, because it was his father's voice. After repeated persuasion he has consented to have additional records of the speech made an ddistribute them among the friends of his father. REPUBLICANS PUTTING WAR PAINT. (A. N. P. Service) Chicago, Sept. 10. -During the week, presentations from more than a score of the states which the consensus of opinion terms "fighting ground," have been in Chicago at the National Republican headquarters in conference with the leaders who are guiding the affairs of the Republican national committee. The representatives came from the states of Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Michigan, West Virginia, Colorado, Nebraska, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and other states. They all reported enthusiasm in behalf of the election of the Republican ticket. An advisory committee has been selected made up of representatives from the various states, and their duty will be to consult with the managers and keep the National headquarters informed on the sentiment in their communities. MOTON'S PLEA FOR NEGRO PRESS A N P. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 10.—An earnest plea for the support of Negro newspapers in America was made by Dr. Robert R. Moton of Tuskegee Institute, in an address delivered before the National Negro Business League at Philadelphia. He said in part: "We must make up our minds pretty clearly that we have to stand behind our newspapers. These publications have fought our battles for right and justice, and they have rarely omitted an act or overlooked an opportunity directed toward co-operation in business or among business men "They have urged our people to support Negro business enterprises and have pointed out that the indispensable road to progress is the opening of business avenues for the young men and young women of our race. No group among our people has been more persistent, more patient, more far sighted, more self-sacrificing than have the publishers of our newspapers. "There should be at least one Negro newspaper in every Negro home of this country. Without such public support, our newspapers cannot expand or render the services we expect of them. Besides subscriptions, Negro business must advertise in Negro papers. Advertising makes business, both for the advertiser and for the newspaper. The benefits are mutual; the co-operation should be mutual. "Negro newspapers have given a most loyal support to the government in all its publicity work in connection with the war program, and from a purely commercial angle, they have demonstrated that they can carry a message in an effective way to the twelve million negroes of this country." FIRST COLORED BOYS' CAMP. (A. N. P. Service.) Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 10.—The first colored boys' camp ever held near Atlanta has closed. Twenty-nine boys from the colored branch of the Y. M. C. A. attended the two weeks' camp. William J. Faulkner, physical director for the colored Y. M. C. A. was camp director. The camp was located sixteen miles from Atlanta on the South River. HEAR, HEAR, INTRODUCING EASON, LEADER. A. N. P. New York, Sept. 10.—The Universal Negro Improvement Association has closed its one month session here by electing Rev. J. S. Eason of Philadelphia, as "leader" of the Negroes of America, and Marcus Garvey as "Provisional President" of Africa. ECUMENICAL COUNCIL DELEGATE. LAY A. N. P. Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 10—Oscar W. Adams, editor of the Birmingham Reporter, has been selected by the A. M. E. Zion church as a lay delegate to the Ecumenical Conference to be held in London, Eng., in 1921. It is the first time in the history of the church that a layman has been so honored. has been so honored. Weekly Mail Edition TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1920 National Baptist Convention PRES JONES ADDRESS Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 10.—(Reciprocal News Service)—Beneath a massive flag, representing Old Glory, standing between pyramids of ferns and palms, Edward P. Jones, the president of the National Baptist Convention, delivered his annual address tonight in the presence of the brain of the greatest denomination among the Negroes in the United States. Recognized already as a forceful, logical speaker and being at the head of more than two and a half million constituents who have lionized him for the past five years, he out-shone himself. He passed his most brilliant star. He eclipsed himself in eloquence and covered himself in glory in the presence of his brethren by the wide scope of the matters touched upon in his address, and yet treating each with such a masterly mind that he convinced his hearers that he was the right man in the right place, discussing problems and offering solutions that would meet the approval of the sages of the time. When President Jones arose and addressed the vice-president at large of the National Baptist Convention after the chorus had sung one of the old plantation lodges, the massive audience stood and he was given the Chautauqua salute. Throughout the address he covered various phases of his denominational life, referring only slightly to those things that he declared had attempted to disrupt, beset or break asunder the bonds of unity among the Baptists of the world. He divided his address into topics. The first one discussed was the recent law-suit. He went into this without any show of feeling, or any influence that would lead one to feel that there was malice in his heart. He offered the olive branch to those, as he termed it, "erring brethren who had gotten out of the fold of the great Baptist family." He pointed an index finger to the time when all would be peace and harmony and then he took up the constructive era and injected ideas that he figured or concluded would serve as a beacon light to the great Baptist forces. He then touched upon the Inter Church World Movement, telling how the Unincorporated Baptists had used foresight, not due as he claimed, to any divine information, but because they had clung to Baptist tenets. He paid a beautiful and glowing tribute to the work of the National Baptist Publishing Board under the leadership of Drs. C. H. Clark and R. H. Boyd, and then another to the Sunday School Congress that has been kept before the world by the untiring efforts of Henry Allen Boyd, the secretary. He paid special attention to the Foreign Mission Board under Drs. Kemp and Frank, to the Educational Board under Drs. Prince and C. J. W. Boyd, and those interested in the national training. The work of the Home Mission Board was given special attention and emphasis was put upon the zeal that had been put into the work by the field secretary S. J. Dixon, backed up by J. P. Robinson, the chairman, and J. S. Laidle, the secretary. And then he passed on to the B. Y. P. U. Board under Drs. Drake and Prince, the Educational Board, under Drs. A. A. Banks and D. P. Jones, not failing to mention the Church Extension and the Temperance Boards. Then he told of some of the needs by discussing a National Baptist Aged Ministers' Home, and like the sage of his time, he swept his audience with him into a twenty-five million dollar campaign, and with an argument that was convincing he showed how this was a small sum for the great denomination. He closed his address with four recommendations for an aged ministers' home; an other asking the convention to urge its messengers to co-operate in compiling the statistics; he advocated proper memorial to the deceased treasurer, John F. Thomas, and has the setting apart of a Union-Revival day, for the greatest denominations, publication, as he styled it, set out by the race. Throughout the evening while the president was making his address thousands cheer him. DAVIS HOLDS HIGHEST ARMY RANK. A. N. P. Washington, D. C., Sept. 10.—Lieut. C. Benjamin O. Davis, a colored citizen of the District of Columbia, holds the highest rank of any man of his race on the active list of the army of the United States. Col. Charles Young, also colored, who was graduated from the United States Military Academy, was retired several months ago on account of disability. He was the only colored man who ever reached the grade of colonel in the army. Although retired, he is still on duty as military attache at the United States legation, Monrovia, Liberia. Col. Davis was born in this city, studied in the Mott school and was graduated from the colored high school. He began his military career as a first lieutenant in the United States volunteer infantry in July, 1898, and was honorably mustered out in March, 1899. He then enlisted in the 9th Regular Cavalry and in two years was successively promoted to corporal and squadron sergeant-major. As a result of a competitive examination open to enlisted men, he was appointed second lieutenant, 10th United States Cavalry, in February, 1901. Since then he has served with either the 9th of 10th Cavalry regiments in campaigns in the Philippines and on the Mexican border, except for a short detail as inspector instructor of the 1st Separate Batallion of the District National Guard. He reached the grade of captain in December, 1915 a temporary major in August, 1917 and a lieutenant-colonel in the National Army in May, 1918. A few days ago he was appointed lieutenant-colonel of Cavalry. He is now at his home, at 1830 11th street, or leave of absence, having just returned from a tour of duty in the Philippines. He has been detailed as professor of military science and tactics at the Tuskegee Institute Alabama, and will go there in a few days. MAYOR SUPPORTS BATHING PAVILION. St. Petersburg, Fla., Sept. 10.—When he heard that residents were preparing to file an injunction to prevent the city building the proposed bathing pavilion for Negroes on the water front, Mayor Noel A. Mitchell said that it may take two injunctions to prevent the city from building this bathing pavilion. building "They have not a legal leg to stand on as the Negro bathing beach is a half mile from the nearest home and cannot injure the residents there in any way." He added, "if any one needs to take a bath after a hard day's work it is the Negro population. The negroes heretofore have not had a bathing beach and we should provide them one." TURNER OPPOSES T. B. MAR PIAGES Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 10.—The annual convention of the National Medical Association held here was one of the most beneficial of the most successful in the history of the organization. Dr. John P. Turner, the new president of the organization, said: organization, said. "We have a membership of about 2,000, including physicians, dentists and pharmacists from every state in the Union, and it is the largest and most intellectual organization of Negroes in the world. All are graduates of various colleges in this country, and a number have studied in the great European universities. the great leap "I am proud to be honored with the presidency, and during my term I shall advocate the enactment of federal legislation to prevent the marriage of tubercular persons and others suffering with those diseases that have long ravaged the human " race. Doctor Turner has been on the staff of the Douglass Memorial hospital for fifteen years and a medical examiner in the public schools of Philadelphia for nine years, and has one of the largest practices among the physicians of his race. among the next session of the associatio will be held in Louisville. OKLAHOMA NEGRO STATE FAIR Wewoka, Okla., Sept. 10.—The annual "Negro State Fair," to be given on the great ranch of Hon. J. Coody Johnson, October 12-15, promises to eclipse all previous events this year. Arrangements have been completed to have daily flying exhibitions by a Curtiss Aeroplane, which will also take passengers up into the misty Larger Circulation than all the combined Colored Weeklies in Oklahoma. Read THE STAR and keep informed on all current issues. Number Thirty Four pt., 22 skies. Excursions will be run from all sections of the state, and it is expected that the attendance will break all records. Unusual preparations are being made for exhibitions of the products of the race, and this feature alone will attract thousands. Wewoka is one of the most beautiful sections of Oklahoma, and J. Coody Johnson one of the wealthiest and most progressive men in the entire country. FOREIGN IMMIGRATION IN CREASES. Hope to Stop Negro Migration to the North. A. N. P. Chicago, Sept. 10.—Immigration figures for the month of August disclose the fact that foreigners are now coming into the United States at the rate of more than 20,000 per month, or 1,000,000 a year. This great influx is on, despite the pressing conditions in Europe, where manions are needed to help rebuild the power is at the minimum, and mil-countries destroyed by the war. Reports are also being circulated in various parts of the south to the effect that 200,000 Mexicans are be imported into various southern states in order to take care of the farm work and other industrial needs brought on by the marvelous influx of negroes into northern states. Leaders, organizations and government departments, having in charge the economic welfare of the country, are studying with great interest the various phases of these new movements. Every encouragement is being given, it seems, to immigration, despite the recent immigration laws passed by congress. Some go so far as to say that the underlying motive is to open up labor conditions in order to throw thousands of Negroes out of employment in the north, so that they will return to the south. If there is any such motive, it is not believed that it will succeed, however. Careful investigation by the Associated Negro Press in every section of the north to which the race has migrated, discloses the fact that more than ninety per cent of the employers are entirely satisfied with Negro labor. They give among the reasons for satisfaction the following: The Colored employees are 100 per cent American; they speak our language and no interpreter is required; they do not seek to foment strife and strikes; they are hard and faithful workers, and the majority of them are saving their money and buying homes. buying On the other hand, it is pointed out that it is necessary for every member of the race to be on guard for his own betterment. After all, it is stated, employment is economic and not sentimental. Regardless of how sympathetic employers may be, efficiency is the watchword, and if employees do not measure up, there is but one thing left to do, make a change. NATIONAL OILERS HOLD MEETING. Spartanburg, S. C., Sept. 10.—Several hundred delegates attended the convention of the Southeastern Connection of t chInternational Brotherhood of Oilers and Firemen, held here. Much attention was given to the plan of enforcing proper working conditions. PRESS AND PULPIT UNITE. Chicago, Sept. 10.—Rev. Dr. H. E. Stewart, pastor of Quinn Chapel A. M. E. church, one of the largest in the city, conducted a series of special meetings during the month of August, to create interest in church attendance. On the last Sunday night the services were turned over to the newspaper men of the city for the purpose of establishing closer relations between pulpit and press. W. C. Linton, editor of the Chicago Whip, acted as chairman, and the principal addresses were made by Naum Daniel Brascher, editor in chief of the Associated Negro Press, and B. W. Fits, editor of the Chicago Searchlight, who started the vice crusade on the South Side, which has been taken up by all newspapers including daily, and legal authorities. MRS EUROPE GETS DECISION New York, Sept. 10.—The courts have decided that Mrs. James Reese Europe, widow of the late lieutenant-bandmaster who was stabbed to death by one of the drummers in his business in Boston, is entitled to compensation under the state compensation act. It was stated that the deceased lost his life while in discharge of his duties of making a livelihood. Number Thirty Four OKMULGEE BOOSTERS HERE. Eighteen cars filled with enthusiastic Okmulguee boosters struck Greenwood street last Monday afternoon at about two-thirty. The party was made up of representative business men of Okmulguee who were on a tour of getting acquainted with the people of neighboring cities with a view of bettering trade. The Tulsa business men had made preparations for the entertainment of the visitors and gave them an enjoyable spread of eatables at Masonic hall. The Okmulguee boosters had made the trip from Beggs in the rain but their enthusiasm had not been dulled by that experience. They returned home, leaving Tulsa about 6 p. m. EDITOR SMITHERMAN HAS RE- LAPSE. Editor A. J. Smitherman of the Tulsa Star, who made a brave attempt to get back on the job last week, suffered a relapse, and in obedience to the orders of his physician has returned to Claremore for complete rest. COMPEL WHITE MAN TO PAY FOR SHINE. St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 10.—A white man went into a colored shoe shining parlor and asked for a shine. After having his shoes shined he stepped down from the chair and walked out of the parlor. The boot-black, however, was just quick enough to catch him by the arm and demand his pay. Replying that the work was not well done, the white man started off again. The colored man called a friend of his and the two compelled the man to pay for the work. LABOR DAY PARADE. St. Louis, Sept. 10.—St. Louis expected one of its largest Labor Day parades for many years on last Monday. The parade was several blocks long and was made up of white and colored of nearly every line of labor in the city. The white organizations made up the front and rear ends while the colored brought up the center of the parade. Each organization had its own band. This should put a muffler on the mouth of those who say the north is not a favorable place for the Negro. AGED NEGRO KILLED St. Louis, Ho., Sept. 10.—Charles Martin, 72 years old and employed by the United Railways company here, was hit by an automobile driven by a white man and dragged seventy-five feet last Tuesday evening about eleven o'clock. The driver is being held charged with murder. OPEN GROCERY STORE. Lexington, Ky., Sept. 10.—A company of 100 men was organized recently in the East End of the city.

New York, Sept. 9th.—The progress attained by the pupils of the Colored Public Schools of Oklahoma in the art of music was signally manifested and recognized during the notable session of the National Association of Negro Musicians which convened in this city during July. This association which has membership in every music center of the country, has for its purpose the fostering and encouragement of music talent in the race, and the promotion of economic and educational training as well. The president of the association is Henry L. Grant of Washington, D. C., who is nationally known in music circles of America. During the session one of the features which attracted unusual interest was the exhibits in the Public School Music department. Commenting thereon, Musical America, one of the leading white journals of this city, said: "An interesting exhibit of the works of Negro pupils was sent from the Manual Training High, the Dunbar, Douglas and Langston Schools, from Muskogee, Okla., and was under the direction of Mrs. Leanna C. Clark the music supervisor of the latter city."

James Weldon Johnson is writing an interesting series of articles for THE NATION depicting the American Occupation of our little sister republic—of Haitian occupation undertaken, as he explains it, in the interest of a New York banking firm to which the Haitians are financially obligated. We submit for the consideration of our readers a clipping which depicts the treatment of these people by American Marines during the construction of a road from Port Au Prince to Cape Haitien. It follows; But the Occupation seized men wherever it could find them, and no able-bodied Haitian was safe from such raids, which most closely resembled the African slave raids of past centuries. And slavery it was—though temporary. By day or night, from the bosom of their families, from their little farms or while trudging peacefully on the country roads, Haitians were seized and forcibly taken to toil for months in far sections of the country.

If anyone doubts that "caco" hunting is the sport of American Marines in Haiti, let him learn the facts about the death of Charlemagne. Charlemagne Peralte was a Haitian of education and culture and of great influence in his district. He was tried by an American court-martial on the charge of aiding "cacos." He was sentenced, not to prison, however, but to five years of hard labor on the roads, and was forced to work in convict garb on the streets of Cape Haitien. He made his escape and put himself at the head of several hundred followers in a valiant though hopeless attempt to free Haiti. The America of the Revolution, indeed the America of the Civil War, would have regarded Charlemagne not as a criminal, but a patriot. He met his death not in open fight, not in an attempt at his capture, but through a dastard deed. While standing over his camp fire, he was shot in cold blood by an American Marine officer who stood concealed by the darkness, and who had reached the camp through bribery and trickery. This deed, which was nothing short of assassination, has been heralded as an example of American heroism. Of this deed, Harry Franck, writing in the June Century of "The Death of Charlemagne," says: "Indeed it is fit to rank with any of the stirring warrior tales with which history is seasoned from the days of the Greeks down to the recent world war."
