VOLUME X Thous Thous HILL IS WINNER OF THE DEBATE Eminent Minister Was no Match for Advocate of Pastor Russell's It may not have been unanimous, but a good majority of the people of both races who heard the debate at the convention hall Tuesday night, between Richard J. Hill and the Rev H. T. S. Johnson left the hall irrevocable in their opinion that while Rev. Johnson is unquestionably a deep thinker and a good speaker he was nevertheless no match for his opponent. Two hours and thirty minutes were consumed by the speakers, each having one hour and fifteen minutes in which to present their respective arguments. About 500 people fully one-half of whom were white heard the debate and all of them seem very much interested. Mr. Hill opened the debate on the affirmative side of the question, which was "Resolved that the teachings of the International Bible Students should be substituted for the doctrines of the Church denominations." In opening the negative side of the question. Rev. Johnson read excerpts from the International Bible Students' Monthly and quoted Mark 16:16, which reads: "He that believeth and is baptised, the same shall be saved and he that believeth not shall be damned," using this as Bible proof that there must be eternal punishment after death. In his rebuttal, Mr. Hill said, "I am not surprised the poor people of the world are wrapped in such ignorance and darkness concerning the Bible, when our most learned and educated, College bred Ministers show such absolute ignorance of the Bible and God's great plan of alvation. I am very much surprised that my worthy opponent does not know that the Scriptures he has just read to you (Mark 16:16) is generally recognized by all Bible Students and Professors of his own theological institutions and any one else who knows anything about the scriptures as no part of the original Bible but interpolations." Then for 20 minutes, Mr. Hill dwelt on the teachings of the International Bible Students giving Bible references to show the correctness of the same. The full text of the debate will appear in the Star as soon as the transcribed copy can be obtained from an official court reporter who took in shorthand every word of the debate. debate. In closing the debate Mr. Hill warmed up to his subject and in a very eloquent and convincing way drove home the final points which, in the opinion of the writer, proved him easily master of the situation. Republicans Hold Convention Monday State-Wide Delegation Expected To Attend Tulsa Meet of G. O. P. Henchmen That Tulsa is considered the center of political activity among the Colored people of this State is proven by the fact that the State organization of republicans and democrats have called conventions to meet in this city within two days of each other. The democratic organization is in session today and the repubulican organization will convene here Monday. The Colored voters of Tulsa are about evenly divided in their political faiths and it is expected that --- THE TULSA STAR both conventions will be well attended by Tulsans as well as visiting delegates. Both coventions are expected to make some definite demands of their respective parties for promises of specific legislation to guarantee fair play and equality before the law of all citizens of this State regardless of race or color. OFFICER TO FACE MURDER CHARGE Following the filing of a murder charge this forenoon against S. R. Grosse, patrolman, who late Saturday night shot and killed Clem Williams, Creek Indian at the Farmers' wagon yard on Hodge st., between Lansing ave. and Admiral boulevard it was announced today that the case would be taken before the grand jury now in session here. The complaint was sworn to by William's wife. Grosse's plea will be self defense. The officer's statement is to the effect that when he walked up to the side of an automobile occupied by an unidentified white man Williams handing him a quart bottle of corn whiskey. Selizing the whisky Grosse placed Williams under arrest. Williams grew boisterous in his denunciation of the officer, and grabbing the bottle hurled it against a fence breaking it, and then running to get a revolver. At that time, Grosse says he shot Williams once in the abdomen. No weapon of any kind was found on Williams after his death. According to police officers Williams has been known as a bootlegger for several years. Justice at Last Opens Her Eyes in Virginia Black Who Shot Bystander to Protect His Home Acquitted NEWPORT NEWS. Va. Sept, 30—a charge of murder in connection with the killing of Simon Wise Lewis a white seaman from Texas. The killing *took place at Carr's home ten days ago and it was contended that when Carr fired the fatal shot he was an ambulance to defend his home from a mob engaged in rioting. Evidence bought out that Lewis had nothing to do with the riot and was merely walking along the avenue when he was killed.

Weekly Mail Edition THE TULSA STAR, Saturday, October 2, 1920 Why The Missouri Colored People Vote Democrat Ticket CITIZEN OF "SHOW ME" STATE WRITES INTERESTING LETTER TO ST. LOUIS EDITOR SHOWING COMPARATIVE ATTITUDE OF TWO PARTIES TOWARD THE RACE. The following letter which appeared in last week's issue of the St. Louis Argus is indicative of the standing of the two great political parties among Colored people in the State of Missouri where the Democrats have always drawn heavily on the Colored vote, and will no doubt do much for the democratic party in that state in the approaching election; To the Editor of the St. Louis Argus As to our Negro population, I challenge the leaders of the Republican Party to show in their demanation of any State of our Republic since the freedom of the Colored man more than 50 years ago, have been more liberal and generous to the race than has the Democratic party of Missouri, which has been in control of the State of Missouri since 1870. The Twenty sixth General Assembly, of which I was a member, convened in Jefferson City on the 4th day of January 1871—the first Democratic Legislature after the Civil War and the freedom of the Colored race. That Assembly passed and put upon the statute books of the State (in which I aided to the best of my ability) a law dividing the public school moneys of the State per capita with the Colored children, a division eminently just. They also appropriated $15,000 to the Colored College which was a private school called the Lincoln Institute located at Jefferson City In 8712 we increased our appropriation to that institution to $25,000. The following year the Democratic Legislature, of which I was also a member, took over this Institution and made a State School if it, and appropriated $65,000, and it has been maintained ever since by State ad. There has never been a single law passed in the 50 years' domination of the Democratic party in Missouri in any way inimical to the Colored race—they have been given every right, under the law, given to a white man, and the power of the State has ever been ready to protect them in the full enjoyment of that right. And what of today. And what's the position of the Democratic and Republican parties in Missouri? In the State Convention which assembled in Jefferson City on the 14th of this month to adopt a platform for each party, the intelligent Colored men of the State of both parties met in conference and agreed upon certain things that should be enacted into law for the uplift and betterment of the Colored race, and the men of that conference who were Republicans and who were Democrats went before the Committee of their political faith and presented requests of their people. And what was that request presented to both parties? And in order to be perfectly fair and just, I submit the platform demands made in both parties. Platform Demands Made of Both Parties by Negro Voters "We favor the establishment of a sanitarium for the treatment of tu bercular Negro patients. "We favor an institution for Negro feeble-minded of the State and a school for the blind. "We favor the establishment of a Negro agricultural experiment station "We favor the making of a state university for Negroes of Lincoln institute. "We favor the appointment of Negro supervisor of Colored schools, "We favor the creation of an industrial training school for Negro boys. Here's What the Demand Brought MISSOURI STATE PARTY PLATFORMS Republican: "Better pay and retirement provision for teachers; better support for the schools and increased educational facilities in both white and Colored schools. Careful provision and adequate appropriation for the health of the state, including ample provision for tubercular Negro patients." Democrats: "We favor the erection and establishment of a separate home for the deaf, dumb, blind, feeble-minded and tubercular Negroes in the State "We favor the converting of schools for Negroes into a State University for Negroes. "We favor Negro representation in boards of Negro institutions in the State. "We favor the establishment of an industrial school for incorrigible Negro boys. "We favor the establishment of an agricultural experiment station for Negroes." The comparison must be humiliating to the intelligent Colored race The Republicans handed them a cob with hardly a grain attached to it, and the Democrats not only gave them what they asked for, but added a section which was eminently just as follows: "We favor Negro representation on boards of Negro institutions of the State. And who wrote the platforms of both partes? The Republican platform was written by Senator Selden P. Spencer, a candidate on the Republican ticket for United States Senator and Arthur M. Hyde, a candidate on the Republican ticket for the great office of Governor of Missouri. The Democratic platform was written by Breckinridge Long, a candidate on the Democrat ticket for the United States Senate and John M. Atkinson, a candidate on the Democratic ticket for the great office of Governor of Missouri. Which platform and which candidates Democratic or Republican, show a more friendly consideration for the betterment of the Colored race? It seems to me $m_e$ in comparison the Republican candidates so far as the Negro race is concerned, should go away back and sit down—as one seems to be earnestly in favor of the uplift and betterment of the Negro race and the other indifferent as to what may come to the Negro race as they say the Negro race will vote the Republican ticket what that party may do or say. It seems to me, viewing the Republican party as I do, that if Abraham Lincoln was living in Missouri today and Fred Douglass that eminent Colored statesman of past age, were also in Missouri, were upon the Democratic ticket for office in this State, that some Colored people would scratch them if they were on the Democratic ticket. NICHOLAS M. BELL. Wewoka Defeats Rivalin County Seat Fight Wewoka Defeats Rivalin County Seat Fight Seminole Loses in Effort to Remove Seat of County Government 1/4 Wewoka, Okla.. Oct. 1—The fight between Wewoka and Seminole for the prize of the County Seat of Seminole County which terminated at the polls yesterday resulted in a decisive victory for Wewoka more decisive theirrvbgkqj gshdr lupentfywO than the required two-thirds of the voters of the County casting their voters of the County, casting their ballots for Wewoka. This is considered a just repudiation of the race prejudice propoganda put out by Seminole in its effort to wrench the County Seat from Wewoka, this city having been referred to very often in the Campaign as a "Negro Town." The Colored people of this County undeer the leadership of J. Coody Johnson rallied to the support of Wewoka and helped to pile up a good substantial majority against Seminole.

Service) Washington, D. C., Sept. 10—Some of the newspapers are not "doing so well" in the effort to connect with the advertising check book of the Re publican National Committee. "In the beginning," Col. Phil. H. Brown hero of several political battles, was supposed to be the very first and only dispenser of publicity favors. However, the Eastern contingent "kicked up a fuss," and it became necessary to have a special "East- ern Division" which in turn received their portion of the budget. Fred R Moore, of the New York Age, it is stated, resigned from the committee, when George W. Harris and he could not agree on terms for their individual newspapers. Now it seems that a policy of eliminating all southern newspapers from the advertising patronage has been adopted, and only certain newspapers in the North and East have been put in on the quadrennial business. This condition is causing a big protest from certain papers such as the Houston Informer, in Texas, and the Buffalo Journal in New York State. It is currently reported that less than $25,000 has been appropriated to handle the publicity among all the Negro newspapers throughout the country. Foreign language newspapers have been getting consideration from the committee for several months and the appropriation for them is several months and cmfwyp jqkgbv cmheral times in excess of Race publication. "The National Committee seems to underestimate the value of our newspapers. Even the Southern newspapers should get consideration not only for their loyalty, but because thousands of their readers now live in northern states," said a prominent leader here.

Popular Ohioan is Lionized by Tul-sans and other Oklahomaans The visit in Tulsa of Governor Cox last night easily takes first place as the most importana public event ever marked in the history of this city. The Governor and democratic presidential candidate arrived in the city at 7:30 over the Frisco from Oklahoma City accompanied by 50 or more Tulsans who went to Enid to meet the Governor, Gov. J, B, A. Robertson and nearly 300 other prominent democrats of the State. After a street parade the party proceeded to the Convention Hall where the democratic candidate was introduced after appropriate preliminary ceremonies and at once plunged into an earnest and eloquent discussion of the issues of the campaign. Thousands of visitors from neighboring cities swelled the crowd that greeted Gov. Cox and augmented the deafening applause that frequently interrupted the speaker during his speech. Everything possible was done by local organizations to properly entertain the distinguished visitor and there is no denying the fact that while here he was the lionized hero of the hour. The Cox-Roosevelt Club—Colored—organized in this City shortly after the Frisco Convention had a place in the parade and was the object of much favorable comment. the present condition of the Order and working out some definite ii2... a s.dfb x-xn GBheh .....t.M plan of action respecting for the organization in this State.

WHO ARE INTERNATIC TERNATIONAL BIBLE STUDENTS WHO ARE INTERNATIONAL BIBLE STUDENTS The True International Bible Students represent that class of persons who have consecrated all they have, even their lives, to do the will of God and walk as nearly as possible in the footsteps of Jesus. They are the ones who intelligently recognize that Jehovah has a great plan concerning his human creatures and that the Bible is the Blue Print of his plan of procedure. They represent the remnant of that class of persons who all down the ages, stood loyal to Godliness, even unto death. Their daily work is trying to have the world se God's Great Plan and the outworking of same. They, International Bible Students are the world's best earthly friends. They are giving their all upon the Alter of Sacrifice that in due time the world will come into a knowledge of God's plan. The sad part about the matter is that the world knoweth them not but has persecuted and put them to death even the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. THE BROADWAY A. W. K. P. A. S. A. All down the ages, even to the present time, God's true messengers, including Jesus Christ, have had the responsibility of announcing the coming Kingdom of God and denouncing a false form of Godliness instituted and maintained by a Clergy class known in Christ's time as Scribes and Pharisees. This denounceion (which means nothing more than telling the world that it is not proceeding according to God's plans) has always brought a roar if indignation from this Pharisee class, the clergy, who have held themselves out as teachers of the world in all things pertaining to God. They killed Christ their best friend and have been making it everything else but pleasant for all who have tried to walk in Christ's foot-steps. I beg to remind you truth loving people that there has long been a great battle raging between right and wrong and that the conflict is now more fierce than ever. The last round is being fought to the finish and soon wrong and error will go down in defeat and be counted out and righteousness, truth and justice will be crowned victor for all time to come. One of the marks of identification of the true servant of God is that their message is always without exception disliked by a ruling class having a form of Godliness with having a farm of Godliness but with out its spirit. This has been true in the case of all the Holy Prophets, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Epostles and all the faithful followers down to the present time. Many of the faithful of the past, including our Savior, sealed their faithfulness, to Jehovah God and His Great Plan, by their blood. The true Christians of the present time are fully aware that if they would reign with their Lord and Master they must follow in his font steps and be willing and glad of the opportunity to lay down their lives for truth and even for their enemies, that they may have the blessed opportunity of blessing even those who have said all manner of evil against them and persecuted them falsely for righteousness sake. More than forty years ago the Lord sent to the world through Pas- --- tor Russell more of the true light concerning his Kingdom. Pastor Russell has brought to light emmys Russell was faithful in delivering this message up until his death October 30, 1916. The followers of his teachings, known as International Bible Students, have continued to the present time in calling the world's attention to God's Great Plan of Salvation. God's Plan, as shown by the teachings of Pastor Russell, has brought to light the fact that the Great Church Systems are guilty of feeding the people of the world on the old musty doctrine of the dark ages. This showing up the Church Systems have greatly angered the preachers and forty years they have been trying to find somewhere to get rid of Russellism. This unfaithful Clergy class would have made short work of the Russellites and their teachings were it not for the laws under which we live. The condition of the people's minds during the recent World War afforded an opportunity for this Devilishly inclined class of preachers to get in their work. They hollered "Traitors," on these humble servants of God and had some of them placed behind prison walls without bail. They, the preachers, remarked, when this was done, that Russillism had come to an end; but the Lord had something yet for them to do before taking them beyond the vale, so here they are still on the trail of the false preachers, calling the world's attention to their false doctrine. Those who are enemies of the truth taught by this humble sect known as the International Bible Students had well remember that, "Truth crushed to earth will rise again," and that NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST THE LORD'S TRUE PEOPLE CAN PROSPER without his permission. BICHARD J. HILL No More Race Riots In Chicago, Says Chief of Police (A. N. P. Service) Chicago, Sept. 30—"This was not a riot, but a sreet fight.

Help The Women- Buy A Tag! Y. W. C. A. INAUGURATES MEMBERSHIP DRIVE Tulsa Christian Women launch a Worthy Undertaking and Ask Support The Young Women's Christian Association is a new organization re- cently set on foot by a number of the cecceeeeee SHRDLU NNIOAT ESHC most enterprising women of the city and realizing the great benefit such an organization will bring to the community these women are desirous of securing the support of the women of all ages living in Tulsa. The promoters realize that they can do but little until the association is set upon a more firm foundation than at present, and further that such foundation can only be made lasting through a membership which will have representatives from every walk in life in this community. Only those who have been blessed with the opportunity of travelling in various sections of the country have seen and know the great amount of good that has been accomplished by strong bands of women under the banner of the Y. W. C. A. The high aim of this organization is attested by its desire to include in its roster of membership all who are willing to aid in the uplift and protection of the young women of the city. If every woman in Tulsa will join and pledge loyal support great results are sure to follow. It is also the aim to have a Tulsa Y. W. C. A Building—a building in which all citizens could have the highest possible pride. Saturday, October 9th, 1920, has been designated as "Tag Day." Do not refuse to buy a tag. The promoters ask generous support in this effort to raise funds and also ask the prayers of all faithful Christians.. TULSA LOSES PROMISING YOUNG LIFE The C. M. F. Church was the sad scene last Wednesday afternoon of the funeral obsequies of the late Miss Katherine Cherry, daughter of our well and favorably known citizens, Mr. and Mrs. James Cherry. Quite a large congregation filled the auditorium of the church as both the departed young girl and her parents have numerous friends in the community who thus attended with a desire of showing their sympathy for the bereaved parents in this hour of distress and grief. The Rev. McLain officiated and delivered a most eloquent and touching sermon appropriate for the occasion. A program in which many of the young friends of the deceased participated was rendered and the floral offerings were many and beautiful. Miss Katherine Cherry, who was unfortunately cut off at the very threshold of young womanhool, was one of the most talented and popular young girls of the city of Tulsa. She had received all the attention and care that found parents could possibly shower upon one they loved most dearly, and there was every prospect for a most promising career until she was stricken by an incurable disease, the ravages of which were fought by the best medical skill in the country. Miss Katherine was born in Sulphur Springs, Texas.. Nov. 4, 1900, and soon would have passed her 20th birthday. She had lived in this city with her parents since 1906 and graduated from the High School in 1918. She spent one year 1919 at Howard University returning home early last summer. On August 30th, she left for the Hospital of Dr. Wilson at Memphis, Tenn., to be operated upon for cancer of the breast. Two operations were necessary; the first was successful, but the second proved fatal. She died Sept 25th, three days after the last operation. She was the only daughter, and is survived by mother, father, two uncles, George Cherry, of Chmuglee and Wm. Cherry of this city. On her mother's side she left a large number of relatives.

The Registrar of the Institute and his co.workrs were busy five days be students. Each day furnished its students. Each day furnished its quota of new arrivals and the records on the first day of the school year showed that some 1900 students had been enrolled. This is the largest openink day enrollment in the history of the Institute. Notwithstanding this fact the stream of incoming students is yet steady. Every iota of space will soon be taken up. It is also noticeable that many of the new students are qualifying for the advanced classes. The Academic Course has been somewhat revised and the curriculum of the Normal Department has been raised. Courses in Modern languages, advanced English, Commercial Law, Stenography, Educational and Business Methods have been added to the courses heretofore offered. Among the faculty members will be seen several new faces. They are new as members of the Tuskegee Institute faculty but very well known in educational circles. Among these are Professors; W. T. B. Williams, Supervisor of Educational Methods, R. P. O'Hara, Director of the Department of Natural Science and B. F. Hubert, Director of the Agricultural Department. In this trio of educators, Harvard and Yale Universities and the Massachusetts Agricultural College are represented respectively. The R. O. T. C. Unit will be under the command of Lieut. Col. Benjamin O. Davis of the Ninth U. S. Calvary Regiment. Lieut. Col. Davis is the highest ranking Negro officer on the active list of the U. S. Army and is the only Negro who has from the grade of Private, reached the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He will be assisted by the efficient corp of Army Officers who had charge of the work last year. The inducties will, as susal, be under the supervision of experienced instructors. Dr. R. R. Moton, Principal, is well pleased as to the faculty and general outlook of the incoming year. Perhaps never before has the work begun under more favorable conditions. Every indication points to this scholastic year to be the most successful in the history of the Institute.

A MAN'S CHANCE AMONG MEN Thinking men and women; working men and women; law abiding men and women with their families and friends are going to Mexico. Not because Mexico offers to set aside a corner for them nor do these Colored people who go there wish any such thing, but because it is an honest country, where law is law and a man is a man, and color is no handicap. Colored Americans are becoming members of the Pan-American Development Association because it is making it possible through its knowledge, privileges and general activities to lift our lowly colored brothers above a life of oppression through race prejudice and denied common comfort and privileges through segregation. The Pan-American Development Association will bring a smile to your countenance with no artificial backing; freedom to your mind and body; and success to your honest efforts to be men among men. Get in touch with this association that will mean so much to your future. You owe it to yourself; you owe it to your family; you owe it to your children and unborn generations. Stop and write them a line that you may make a sure step forward piness. See this ad elsewhere in this paper.

SOUTHERN WHITE MEN AT WAR OVER RACE SCHOOL QUESTION Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 30—The "Retort courteous" came dangerously near passing to the "lie direct" between Dr. Plato Durham, of Emory University and W. H., Terrell of the Atlanta Board of Education, both white, when they disagreed over a discussion in regard to Atlanta's duty to the Colored people with referee to high school education. Each of the speakers had "disabled the judgment" of the other, Dr. Durham holding that the Colored race should be allowed greater high school facilities, while Mr. Terrell took that stand that the board of education should concern itself first with providing the little Colored childtn with grammar schools before attempting to provide "classical education." Statements from both Mr. Terrell and Dr. Durham developed some heat, and a warm exchange between the two was possibly prevented by the proposal of President Fred Win. that the question of high school education for the Colored be deferred to a later date, when the matter could be discussel behind closed doors. This suggestion was accepted by Dr. Durham who left the council chamber with the parting shot at Mr. Terrell: "All we want is for you to make a statement of the facts, which you have not done." To this Mr. Terrell replied with spirit that he had stated the facts. GEORGIA RACE MEN ORGANIZE FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY Atlanata, Ga.

He announced that the petitions for the candidacy of Hawkins had already been signed by not less than 2,500 persons and that it was expected that before the list was closed it would mount up to at least 5,000 names. Not only have the petitions been signed by the Colored people, it was stated, but they have gone so far as to organize about 20 Colored clubs in the city and various parts of the state and some of these have the name of Harding, Coolidge and Hawkins. The Colored people are reported to be very active for a candidate of their own, especially at Easton, Cambridge and Hagerstown, as well as in Baltimore Cit and the backers of the Colored candidate say they can count on the almost solid support of the women of their race for the candidate for the Senate.

COOL Tulsa, Okla. nis Jack Dennis vice Barber Service TULSA STAR. Saturday, Oct. 2. 1920 It is well for us to have a clear understanding between the terms "the man Christ Jesus" and "The Christ." The Christ is a body composed of many members (one hundred forty four thousand and one 144,001. The man Christ Jesus is the head of that body. All who consecrate themselves to do the will of the Lord at any cost, even unto death, are members of the body of "The Christ," According to God's plan, a period of more than 1800 years known as the Gospel Age, has been designated as the time for the birth of "The Christ" Head and Body. Do you know that the Gospel Age is about closed and that it is about time for the full birth of "The Christ" head and body on the spirit plain? Do you know that the head Christ Jesus was born at the beginning of the Gospel Age and that the feet and last members will be born at the close of the Gospel Age? Do you know that the duty of every member of the body of Christ is to explain God's Plan as is revealed in his word, the Bible, and to point out the errors of the world and give plain warnings as to the punishments that are sure to follow disobedience of God's word? Do you know that every persecution of a Consecrated Christian is a persecution of the prophecies of the Bible more than thirty years ago, as to what would take place in these days are transpiring in these very hours? Is it good sense to claim that such an one was not a true Servant of God? Do you know that God's Great Blessings and the desire of all Nations will not come until "The Christ" head and body, is born on the spirit plain? Do you know that every true International Bible Student is a true friend of the world of mankind and that their whole life is one of prayer on bended knees before the Throne of God, asking that the poor world be soon cured of its deadly malady of war, sickness, sorrow, pain and death? Do you know that all the Holy Prophets of old, the Lord Jesus and the Apostles, sealed their faithfulness to the will of Jehovah by their death? Do you know that every International Bible Student is a feet member of the body of "The Christ" and that they have long known that a dark hour of their Gethsemane, through false accusations, awaits the ending of their work here on earth the same as did their Lord and head Jesus? Do you know that the question as to how, when and where the feet members of "The Christ" shall reach their Gethsemane to be born on the Spirit plain with their head and Lord is not a matter of concern to them but is left with the Lord and that they must fulfill their consecration vow and be faithful to the will of God even unto death? Dear readers: I wish to advise you to watch and read your papers closely without missing an issue from now on until the first of the year at least because of the Lord's Grace if he permits it we shall endeavor to turn loose the big guns of truth as never before with a view of continuing the bombardment until the stringholds of Babylon crumbles and humble people shown the light.

RAIN DOES DAMAGES ON GREENWOOD—AS USUAL The heavy rain storm that visited Tulsa about 9 i'clock Sunday night did the usual amount of damage occasioned by the backing up of water which an insufficient sewage system fails to take off during heavy rains. The Red Wing and the Stradford hotel buildings and other buildings within half a block of these buildings were where the principal damage was done. Every time a big rain comes the inter-section at Greenwood and Cameron resembles the water front on Lake Michigan in Chicago and considerable damage is always done to property in this vicinity. While it is plainly the city's fault for not prividing sewage facilities no one has as yet filed suit to recover damage resulting from this negligence. American Japan Policy is Regarded With Dark Misgiving By Thinking Colored People (A. N. P. Service) Los Angeles, Calif., Sept. 30—The Japanese situation continues to be a matter of considerable concern to United States. California with her recurrent efforts to pass laws designed to exclude the yellow races keeps the question agitated. The attention of our group is being attracted particularly at this time because of the frank admissions being made by men prominent in public life, that it is a question purely of race and therefore of prejudice and justifying it upon those grounds. Governor Cox while currying favor in California bursts forth with this ebullition; "God Almighty provided that the fathers of America should be white men. Those from other shores who do not subscribe to that doctrine have the privilege of going back where they came from." Senator Harding, with suave diplomatic mien, says quietly, that which promises much more ill to the pellow man. He says, 'We favor such modifications of our immigration laws and such changes in our international understandings and such a policy as regards those who come among us as will guarantee the citizens of this republic assimilability of alien born." All of which the thoughtful members of the race are turning over carefully in their minds. We have been disfranchised and discriminated against but it has been done indirectly by states. From a national viewpoint we have been presumably full fledged American citizens. If the Japanese came in large number and found themselves up against the same white man's prejudice, they could not be lynched and maltreated because the government and navy of Japan would be standing behind them. Therefore they had better be kept out. The Chicago journal says: "The Japanese are not an inferior race. They are a great race. The Chinese are a great race. too. When the ancestors of most Americans were engaged in the task of herding hogs, the Chinese were $ \mathrm{e} $ counting the stars, creating beautiful works of art, and discussing what life meant.

A number of emi- nent financiers of the South some of them bankers whose investinents run into the millions have recently been in a conference with Chicago capi- talists with the object in view of es- tablishing @ national bank here with a paid capital of #1.000.000. It is argued that a number of the Colored banks of the South are re- quired to keep on deposit in New York and Chicago, thousands of dol. jars in order to meet their clearing in these cities, and if the race hac a national bank, a member of the federal reserve system, this money could be kept there. Moreover sev- eral hundreds of thousands of dol- lars worth of business is transacted annually by Southern buyers, thru Southern banks, where not a single Colored clerk is employed and all this business would be turned over to the great national “family bank.” ASSOCIATED PRESS MAKES ECONOMIC SURVEY CAN. P. Service) Chicago, Sept. 30—A Careful sur. vey or economic conditions in the United States, as they affect the Col- ‘ored people, has just been completed by the Associated Negro Press. The survey covers every section of the United States, and has been made with the object of being of practical service to the people. ‘The demand for labor is easing up in the larger centers of the North and East, except in the steel mills and one or two uutomobile secions. Where here is demand for labor, the housing situation remains 2s bad. if not worse than heretofore. ‘The rent profiteer is getting in his most telling licks at this time. He is working wihout fear or con- science, because i tis known that the people have few places to turn, if they refuse to pay his increased prices, Orgnizattons have been formed in a number of cities with the avowed object of “getting at” the rent hog but except in New York State, there has been little Igislation to back up the efforts. Real estate investments are going on, and yet there is a strong tenden cy to precaution, beause of the be ‘ief in an early drop in prevailing prices which have advanced in som instances as high as fifty percen over prices of 1916, It is found that in many location: terms for investment are almost pro hibitive.

Who Discovered North America Harvard Professor in New Book Proves _That Men From Africa Sailed Here First HISTORY IN ERROR Colored People Grew Peanuts and Sweet Potatoes Here Before Columbus Was Born (From the Afro-American) Boston, Mass. Sept. 23—Who discovered America? Columbus in 1492. Not on your life. That is old stuff and nonsense founded on myth and imagination. So says Prof. Leo Weiner, white professor of Slavic Languages in Harvard University and he gives his proofs in a new book "AFRICA AND THE DISCOVER YOF AMERICA." According to Prof. Wiener, black men from the Guinea and Congo sailed across the Atlantic Ocean traded with the Indians and some of them came to America and settled three hundred years before Christophr Columbus was born. Here are some of the proofs presented which have set Boston and Harvard University by the ears, the more so because Professor Wiener is an authority on the history of civilization and has an international reputation. He points out that in Columbus accounts of his voyage to America. Columbus said he had heard of Africans reaching a continent in the west and that he went first to Africa to verify it before sailing. A good part of our present opinions about Columbus the discoverer_he adds are frauds and "horrible lies." Tabacco. Professor Wiener adds, as well as sweetpotatoes, yams, manioc and peanuts are native to Africa and were brought here by Africans. "It is a historical fact that in 1503 Negroes in large numbers were living in America and smoking and raising tobacco. Even the wampum belt, always thought of Indian origin, I have found was an African product and the making of it was taught Indians by the Africans.

MUSKOGEE NOTES The public schools are filled to overflowing despite the fact that many Muskogeeans have gone away to other schools. The 6A have been taken out of the High School Building and sent back to the grade buildings from which they came. This course has been made necessary because of the crowded condition of the M. T. H. S. Building. Annexes have been added to the Dunbar and Douglas School Buildings to take care of the overflow. New pupils are here from Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana and other Southern States. Also quite a number from small cities in Oklahoma. Among the new teachers are Profs Simpson, Patton, Savage, Haris, Mrs. O. B. Jefferson at the M. T. H. S., Prof. Ward, principal at Douglas, Miss Pointer, and Mesdames Jones, Rouse, Clark, L. C. Jones, Walker and Jackson. With the new material drawn from many of the best schools of the country it is expected that much good will be done this year when the new teachers get settled down to the work. Miss Hunt who had had extensive experience in that line has charge of the cafeteria at the Manual Training High School for this year. Harold Weaver and the Howard University Bunch will leave this week to take up their studies. Qute a crowd of girls headed by Miss Rose Hewitt are going to Wilberforce University. By the way, Dean Jones of Wiberforce, writes: "am very much pleased with the girls from Muskogee, send us some more." This we have done. Supervised play is very popular at the grade schools. Douglas is about to form a basket ball team. The Boys' Glee Club if the Manual Training High School will soon be able to challenge the world. Miss Miller, who has a music studio in Chicago, and her mother have been the guests of Dr. and Mrs. Montgomery. They were entertained charmingly by Dr. and Mrs. Muckleroy.

Thompson of Biddle University was here the guest of Mrs. Bruce., Miss Thompson will have charge of English at Langston this year. She is also a Harvard graduate.

ELSIE Muskogee, Okla., Sept 24th—Dr. A. E. Hubbard, Presiding Elder of Muskogee District held the 4th quarterly meeting.

FROM THE CHILDREN'S CLUB The littl vbgkqj cmfwyp uldhrsm The Little Sunshine Club has secured the building at 126 North Elgin St., for a club room and the parking on Brady for a play ground. Last week the city gave them three nice swings and a promise of a slide and other apparatus soon. About forty children met in the Club room Sunday at four o'clock and listened very intensively to their Supervisor, Mrs. F. R. Williams talk on "Saving Pennies." Every little girl and boy promised to cut out so much ice cream and candies and save a bank account by Xmas. After this, they scampered to the playground and enjoyed the swings, and rope jumping. The club will meet every Sunday at four o'clock. All children are welcome to the club and playground but you must be a member of the club to enjoy the play things.

She was well pleased with the results she obtained from the Radium baths that she decided to stay here. She negotiated for the Washington Bath House and with money she had earned with her hands or with her brains she bought out the former proprietors and took charge herself. Since that time she has successfully conducted this thriving business. Mrs. Harrison is a widow and has been for nine years. She came here from Wichita. Kansas, where she owned considerable property.

J. B. A. Robertson. THE STATE OF OKKLAHOMA is to have an established branch of the Southern Sociological Congress—thanks to the efforts of Gov. Robertson, who has demonstrated in a pleasing measure his hood of man. A few months ago the Governor called into his executive chambers a number of men of both races and outlined to them tenable plans for harmonizing the relationship between the races with a view to inspiring implicit obedience to the laws of the land and guaranteeing certain rights and equities to the Colored people of this State. Last week another conference of this committee was held; additional members added, and a call issued for a meeting for permanent organization. This meeting was held Thursday to discuss permanent organization of a branch Southern Sociological Congress. If this organization is finally established Gov. Robertson will have done more for the permanent good of all the people of this State than any other State executive, or any private citizen, has ever done. And if this organization will work heartily, co-operatively and in dead earnest to carry out the laid down policies of Gov. Robertson, its life and usefulness will be permanent and indispensable. But on the other hand, if those who have been SELECTED to represent the common people are not equal to the task; if they are given to pedantry and seeking the favor of empty honors for their own selfish satisfaction, if they are not sincerely interested in the welfare of the common people, then the demise of this organization will be forthcoming ere its hoping, however, that every man connected with this proposed commendable organization is as honest, sincere and unselfish as the fath-proposed organization is as honest, sincere and unselfish as the father of the Movement—Gov. J. B. A. Robertson. MEETING HIGH RENTS. THE PEOPLE have had time to recover high rents some of the more thoughtful paign of denunciation of landlords—meet either wise. While there has undoubted offeering in rents, it is also apparent landlords who advanced rents no more operation and upkeep. ng noticeable is that some tenantsmade NOW THAT THE PEOPLE have had time to recover somewhat from the first shock of high rents some of the more thoughtful are beginning to wonder if he campaign of denunciation of landlords—meaning houselords—has been altogether wise. While there has undoubtedly been some conscienceeless profiteering in rents, it is also apparent that there are a vast number of landlords who advanced rents no more than enough to cover the cost of operation and upkeep. Another thing noticeable is that some tenantsmade such an outcry against any advance at all that decent building owners sold in disgust, and profiteering buyers raised them to the limit. Still another thing to be seen is that would-be investors have been frightened out of all desire to engage in house building. These facts now take on a sober aspect. There is a great shortage of houses. This shortage can be relieved only by increased building. But there can be little building until there is a better return to capital invested in houses and apartments. Almost any other kind of business pays better than house building. Either rents must go higher, or the cost of building must be lowered. It is one thing to limit the income of present house owners. It is an altogether different thing to induce men to build new houses, and without THE ONLY FAVORABLE DECISION the Race has ever gotten from the Supreme Court of the United States was rendered when that court was presided over by democrats, under a democratis administration. We submit this for consideratii of our republican friends who are always "eussing" the democrats. THE LAST EIGHT YEARS have been the most prosperous in the history of the United States, and this in spite of the handicaps of the world war. Yet there are those who would hesitate to give credit for this to the democratic administration. THE TULSA GRAND JURY has followed the example of the Oklahoma City Grand Jury in giving the sheriff a clean bill and finding no evidence of the recent lynching of Roy Belton. ONE thing is certain though—the boy was lynched. THE APPEARANCE of Gov. Cox in Oklahoma has given new inspiration to party leaders and encouragemen to the rank and fill of the party, that nothing else could have done. Jimmy is some scraper and he's sure to win. CONGRESSMAN HOWARD will be re-elected in spite of the appearance of friend "Bert" on the scene. Chandler is a good man perhaps, but for this particular job he is not as good as Howard, who is the best. MANY OF THOSE who voted the republican ticket in the recent city election have come to regret their action, and they vow that they will not have further cause for regret after the approaching election. STUDY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY on a small scale (the city administration) then decide whether you want it on a large scale or not. THE TUSLA COUNTY DEMOCRATIC TICKET will be elected without doubt. Get on the winning side, if you don't like to be a loser GOV. COX has come, seen and conquered. The majority of the voters of Oklahoma are strong for "Sunny Jim." BOLSA STAR. Saturday. Oct. 2. 1980 Japanese Question Becoming Acute American Japan Policy is Regarded With Dark Misgiving By Thinking Colored People (A. N. P. Service) Los Angeles, Calif., Sept. 30—The Japanese situation continues to be a matter of considerable concern to the United States. California with her recurrent efforts to pass laws designed to exclude the yellow races keeps the question agitated. The attention of our group is being attracted particularly at this time because of the frank admissions being made by men prominent in public life, that it is a question purely of race at the therefore of prejudice and justifying it upon those grounds. Governor Cox while carrying favor in California bursts forth with this ebullition: "God Almighty provided that the fathers of America should be white men. Those from other shores who do not subscribe to that doctrine have the privilege of going back where they came from." Senator Harding, with suave diplomatic mien, says quietly, that which promises much more ill to the pellow man. He says, 'We favor such modifications of our immigration laws and such changes in our international understandings and such a policy as regards those who come among us as will guarantee the citizens of this republic assimilability of alien born." All of which the thoughtful members of the race are turning over carefully in their minds. We have been disfranchised and discriminated against but it has been done indirectly by states. From a national viewpoint we have been presumably full fledged American citizens. If the Japanese came in large number and found themselves up against the same white man's prejudice, they could not be lynched and maltreated because the government and navy of Japan would be standing behind them. Therefore they had better be kept out. The Chicago Journal says: "The Japanese are not an inferior race, They are a great race. The Chinese are a great race. too. When the ancestors of most Americans were engaged in the task of herding hogs, the Chinese were counting the stars, creating beautiful works of art, and discussing what life meant. General Grant said that the greatest men he had ever met were Disraeli, the English Statesman, Gambetta, the French Statesman, Bismark, the German Statesman and Li Hung Chana the Chinese Statesman, and that he believed that Li Huny Chang was the greatest of the four. But the average white man in Amerira is not likely to believe that any Chinese or Japanese $ _{e} $ gentleman is as great as the most inferior American whose skin is white. This pjudice against color—for it is nothing but prejudice—must be accepted. It is anoying, it is unjust, but it is useless to fight against a fact. Some outlet for overpopulated Japan must be found, but so long as American white men are prejudiced against all blood that is not white, it would be foolish to let down the bars so that they may come here. But if some outlet is not soon provided—well, to speak mildly, there will be friction between Tokyo and Washington." Will the United States frankly and squarely admit that the constitution is a dead letter, that the theory that all men were created equal, an idiological endorsement. If it be trueional endorsement?.If it be true then the outlook for the darker Americans, is indeed dark. LAFLORE COUNTY FAIR (Continued from page One) cloth.
