Repudiates VOL. XL. NO. 10 Rep THE PARENTS LEFT FAITH IN INVEST MITTEE. DR.T Big Meeting Tuesday Night—The Fight to Be Continued—No Faith in the Committee to Investigate—Attorney Hill Scores the Alleged Leaders—Dr. Tanner Declines the Board's Invitation to Appear—Mrs. Cook's Alleged Opinion. The Parents' League met Tuesday night in the Metropolitan Church. Speeches were made by Dr. Tanner, W. Calvin Bruce, Attorney Hill and others. One of the most pointed speeches was made by Dr. Tanner, who declared, among other things, that he had no faith in the committee to investigate Roscoe Bruce and very little in the president of the Board of Education, Dr. Vanschaik. He did not know what the committee intended to do. A man who is to be investigated with closed doors is no man at all, and, so far as he was concerned, he did not propose to be caught in such a trap. He said he had written the Board of Education, declining the invitation to be present. His letter to the Board was read, and at its conclusion the vast audience waved handkerchiefs and vociferously applauded the speaker. Copy of Letter Sent Mr. Learned. Washington, D. C. August 5, 1919. Dr. H. B. Learned Chairman, Special Committee Board of Education, Your request to appear before the Board of Education re the Bruce matter is at hand and contents noted. In reply I would say that because of the arbitrary and, as I believe, unfair position of the Board of Education in ordering this inquiry and determining the rules for the same, I do not believe that any good could be accomplished by my testimony or that of any of the others. I cannot believe that the ends of justice will be served by any secret session. Any man desiring a vindication that would be worth anything in the public estimation would insist upon a public hearing. Again, it is commonly reported that Mrs. C. F. Cook some months ago declared that under no circumstances would she vote against Mr. Bruce, and, thirdly, I understand that only matters relating to Mr. Bruce's educational fitness and administrative ability are to be inquired into. No one being allowed to introduce any evidence—of which there is such an abundance—that his character is very much called in question, his connection with the Slush Fund letter, and the Moens case, and his other indiscretions and escapades. Under such conditions and with other influences that need not here be mentioned, I fear it is not difficult for anyone to forecast the majority vote in this investigation. I therefore most respectfully decline your invitation to appear before the committee. Attorney Hill was next introduced. He stated that there was but one thing to do and that was to give the Board of Education to understand that twenty thousand or more colored citizens have rights that it must respect. Attorney Hill delivered a very caustic address. In speaking of teachers who had been picked by the president of the Board of Education, Attorney Hill stated that a member of the Board of Education had referred to Archibald Grimke, Kelly Miller and others as representatives of the race. Attorney Hill declared that neither represented the race, and so far as the colored people were concerned, they did not recognize hand-picked leaders. What Was Decided On. First. That the city be divided into 45 divisions, and in each division a --- The Washington Bee representative citizen be appointed to visit every parent. Second. That the Unitarian Church, of which the president of the Board of Education is president, be picketed and an appeal be made to the members and officers of that church that they request the pastor to practice what he preaches. Third. That the protests and meetings of the Parents' League be continued until Mr. Bruce is removed, and if he is continued in school at the opening of the schools an appeal be made to the people and to Congress. A large collection was taken up. The league adjourned to meet next Tuesday evening at the same place. THE DEFENSE FUND. More Than Two Thousand Citizens Respond to the Call of the Executive Committee of the Race Congress—Secretary Hawkins' Advice to the People. There were fully two thousand citizens in the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church last Monday ngiht, who came in response to the call of the executive committee of the National Race Congress, Rev. W. H. Jernagin, president. Many distinguished ministers occupied seats in the pulpit. The meeting was called to order by Rev. W. A. Taylor, who introduced Rev. W. J. Howard, who offered prayer. Dr. W. H. Jernagin was then introduced and stated briefly the purpose of the meeting. Among other things, he stated that many colored citizens were injured, a few killed, and many arrested in the recent race riot, which they did not precipitate, and it was the duty of the colored people to see that those arrested were properly defended. Rev. W. C. Brown, pastor of John Wesley Church, was next introduced, and he was followed by Rev. A. A. Graham, corresponding secretary of the Race Congress, who spoke for 25 minutes. President Jernagin then introduced Prof. John R. Hawkins, who is in charge of the collection of the defense fund. He made a most prolific speech. He thought it would be wise for some of the colored people to go into the hardware business, and then they would not be compelled to rely on others. He also stated that he had visited the child in jail and her father who are charged with the shooting of Detective Wilson. He saw where the girl and her father were shot. He also stated that able counsel had been selected to defend them and others. A committee from the Uplift Club, headed by Robert Pelham, pledged its support; also a committee from seven churches. Corinthian Lodge of Elks, represented by James Howard, who said he was authorized to state that his lodge had a contribution to make to the defense fund. Mr. Soders stated that he also had collected several hundred dollars. Other churches and organizations have agreed to contribute to the fund. Every person who had been arrested, stated Prof. Hawkins, would be provided with counsel. The committee intends to raise twenty thousand dollars in ten days. The thanks of the meeting were tendered to those who so bravely and manfully defended the rights of the people. Twenty colored lawyers and twelve white lawyers have been retained to defend those who have been arrested. All collections of funds must be sent to the secretary, Prof. John R. Hawkjins, 1451 Fourteenth street northwest. "WAY DOWN HOME" DAY. Saturday, August 2, was a gala day for twenty-nine wounded boys at the Walter Reed Hospital. Mrs. Julia Mason Layton, "the mother of the boys," was at the hospital promptly at 2:45 o'clock. Captain Clinton and Lieutenant Porter of the Red Cross Unit of Burryville, D. C., were on hand WASHINGTON, D.C.SATURDAY, AUGUST 9,1919 also. Two trucks and two automobiles conveyed the soldiers to the A. M. E. Zion Church of Burrville, of which Rev. Logan Johnson is pastor. The Red Cross Unit and members of the church and residents generally of this vicinity, headed by the pastor, were on hand to welcome the wounded soldiers. It was a perfect day and an ideal spot where the picnic was held. The boys truly enjoyed the scenery, the splendid breeze and the hospitable welcome. Dinner was served—one just like mother cooked "way down home." The tables were spread in the reception room of the church. After dinner a short program was rendered. Rev. Logan Johnson gave a splendid talk on the valor and heroism of our boys in the late war. He urged the boys to continue to be men and always in the front ranks. Mrs. Julia Mason Layton told of the work accomplished through the War Camp Club, No. 3, and urged the good friends to continue to spread sunshine for the boys. One of the soldier boys responded. A veteran of the War of 1861-65, Comrade Washington, gave some reminiscences of the Civil War and paid a high compliment to these heroes. Mrs. Layton and her boys left the historic hill of Burrville, each feeling that this was, indeed, the ending of a perfect day. There is another Red Cross Unit in this locality, over which Captain Knox presides, and very soon, at the bottom of the hill, the boys will be given another rare treat. NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS SUFFRAGE SESSION. To the Colored Folk of America— Greetings: The National Race Congress of America, by its executive committee, authorizes us to issue the call for the fourth annual meeting of the said congress in Washington, D. C., October 7th to 11th inclusive, 1919, at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R street between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets northwest, Rev. Dr. M. W. D. Norman, pastor. All local units are eligible to be represented according to the constitution. Churches and auxiliaries of churches, clubs, associations, fraternities and organizations are also admitted according to the law now in force—$2 per delegate. This congress is known as the suffrage session. Every interest of the colored people hinges on the ballot. Every man in America should be interested in the franchise. There is no more important subject before us as a people. You are called to meet us. If there is no organization in your district to send a delegation, let a few public-spirited men make such an organization—one that desires the growth of the Negro manhood, the purity of Negro womanhood and the opportunity of Negro childhood. Come, all ye leaders of the great black race in America! Come—to bring the truth from your community.. Come—to hear the facts about other sections. Come—to hear the story of the colored people of England, France, Liberia and Haiti. Come—to help make a program for the reconstruction of the higher life of the Negro in America. All prospective delegates and visitors are asked to write Rev. M. W. D: Norman, chairman of the committee on arrangements. For further information write, headquarters, 903 Third street northwest, Washington, D. C. W. H. Jernagin, president; C. H. Stepteau, secretary, Baltimore, Md. H. J. Callis, chairman executive committee; J. L. S. Holloman, secretary executive committee. PHILADELPHIA CONFERENCE Mrs. Julia Mason Layton was sent to Philadelphia last week by the National Headquarters of the War Camp Community Service, Madison avenue, New York City, to attend a conference of colored war workers. They were in session Tuesday and Wednesday at Berean Army and Navy Club, South College avenue. Mrs. Committee AH!HA, I KNEW THEY'D FALL FOR MY OLD TRICK! HELP-IM INSULTED! BOURBON BREATH PORTER 19 Layton was listed to give a talk on "The High Spots and the Difficulties of Her Work in War Camp Service." There was quite a large attendance of workers representing nearly all sections of the country. Messrs. Carrington Howard Wallace of the New York office and Settles of Washington headquarters were in charge. The Philadelphia workers entertained royally. An automobile ride of several hours through Fairmount Park, the University of Pennsylvania grounds and a stop at Independence Hall were among the pleasantries. The work reported through the many workers gave evidence that community service is making good throughout the States. MAKE GREAT PREPARATIONS FOR CONVENTION. S. H. Dudley and the Amphion Glee Club Will Appear. (Special to The Bee.) Atlantic City, N. J., Aug. 6.—Light House Lodge of Atlantic City is making preparations that will warrant the assertion that the coming convention of the Grand Lodge of Elks will be the best ever held in the history of that organization when they convene at Atlantic City on the 24th of this month. Neither pains nor expense have been spared to give the visitors and delegates everything they could expect in the way of entertainment in the greatest convention city in the country and the nation's playground. Already the city is taking on a holiday appearance in view of the extensive decorations and electrical displays being made for the coming of the Elks herd. This will be, indeed, the grand victory convention of the order. The Amphion Glee Club of Washington has been engaged to render a program at the housewarming and reception given to the grand officers on the occasion of the opening of the new $30,000 home of Lighthouse Lodge. S. H. Dudley, well known theatrical producer of Washington, has been engaged to furnish a bill at the Hotel Bay State for two weeks during the grand encampment of the K. of P.'s and the Elks conventions. The mayor of the city and other municipal and State authorities and the citizens in general are all lending their efforts to make this the greatest race convention held in the history of the city. MAKES A HIT. Mrs. Bessie Hamilton Armes Meets With Great Success—Now the Guest of Her Sister. Mrs. Bessie Hamilton Armes, the well-known soprano singer and formerly of this city, but now of Cam- bridge, Mass., has been filling engagements at White Sulphur Springs, W. Va.; Louisburg, W. Va., and Rancevente, W. Va. She made quite a hit. While there she was the guest of her sister, Miss Maud Hamilton, who makes her home in White Sulphur Springs. COLORED GIRL OUTRAGED A Most Hellish Outrage. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has just issued a pamphlet on the result and confirmation by the Atlanta Constitution of one of the most hellish outrages ever perpetrated upon two young colored girls in Milan, Ga., and the lynching of a colored man 72 years old because he told two "crackers" that he came out of his house to see what the trouble was. Send for the pamphlet. It is worth reading. The Bee respectfully refers Alabama Heflin's attention to this remarkable document. CAPITAL CITY CLEF CLUB. Prof. Lewis T. Thomas, of the progressive brothers of the famous Thomas family, has given the Capital of the Nation a great musical organization. He has purchased the handsome terrace at the northwest corner of Ninth and R streets northwest, where he has established the Capital City Clef Club, which is composed of some of the leading musicians in the city. This magnificent club house has about 15 rooms, which are handsomely furnished from top to bottom. The Bee representative visited this new place Wednesday afternoon, and on entering the first object that met his observation was the three thousand dollar electric piano. It is a gem. This instrument is in the reception parlor. The house alone costs ten thousand dollars. Prof. Thomas is not only a composer of music, but he is master of his profession. This club will furnish every class of music. This is only a brief mention of this great innovation to the musical aggregation of this city. A full and minute description of this new club, beautifully illustrated, will appear in The Bee in a few weeks, or as soon as the cuts are made. Watch this paper for this description. DR. WELTERS HAS NARROW ESCAPE Jacksonville, Fla.—Dr. Welters, who is better known as the discoverer of the Dr. Welters Antiseptic Tooth Powder, was treacherously assaulted Monday morning by a would-be assassin in the guise of a woman. The doctor was called over his phone about 8 o'clock in the morning ```markdown ``` by a woman who made an appointment for 10 o'clock. She arrived at the appointed hour and instructed the dentist that she wanted some dental work examined that had recently been constructed. After examining the woman's mouth, the dentist discovered that nothing was wrong with the work, and advised her to that effect. She insisted that a tooth was too high and that she would return again later. When lowering the dental chair, pleasantly dismissing the patient, without the least warning, while the dentist's face was turned arranging a towel on the head rest, the woman slashed him with a razor across the face, inflicting a very painful wound. She was immediately overtaken by the police and placed in the city jail, where she was tried, found guilty, and turned over to the criminal court, under the charge of assault with attempt to kill. The doctor is recovering nicely and resuming his business obligations. BRUCE NOT IN CONTROL. His Name Withdrawn as Chairman of the Boy Scouts—A New Committee to be Appointed—Letter of Deputy Commissioner Marshall to the Editor of The Bee. Some time ago it was announced through the press that Roscoe C. Bruce had been named chairman of the committee of the Boy Scouts. The Bee, making inquiry, Deputy Commissioner Charles L. Marshall sent the following letter to The Bee, which speaks for itself: "My Dear Mr. Chase: "In reference to your inquiry as to the committee in charge of the colored Boy Scouts, I beg to state that last month I sent a letter to the Scout headquarters containing the names of five gentlemen to serve on an advisory committee for the colored Scouts, but the Scout executive was very busy with Scout Week at that time and following that he was called out of town on some important business. On his return I had intended to take the matter up with him, but, owing to conditions that occurred in the meantime, which were beyond my power to prevent or to control, I have decided to withdraw my request for a committee for the present, which, of course, leaves me without a committee. "I appreciate very much your interest in the movement and would be glad to notify you of any development. I am "Sincerely yours, "Chas. A. Marshall, "Deputy Commissioner, in charge of the Colored Scouts of Washington, D. C." My good friend Ralph W. Tyler is getting rich. There is one thing I must say about this great journalist. He is the most liberal public man in the United States; but he is like an Indian or an elephant if you do him a mean trick. He was the only real man in office under the administration of Roosevelt. He was far superior to any man in Thompson's black cabinet. The reason I name it Thompson's black cabinet is that R. W. T. was the first correspondent to designate the flunkies under Roosevelt and Taft's administrations. Of course, they all were not flunkies. Tyler was the premier of them all. He was a man. John C. Dancy was a good fellow. He wanted to help his race. Sir Johnson was not one, two, three in Chinese money. Dancy was honest and he only had one fault, and that fault was only an impediment to himself and not to others. He would never abuse his fellow man. He would help any that he could. W. T. Vernon should have remained in Kansas. He was true to no one. His best friend was betrayed while his enemies were wined and dined. His stay in this city was his ruination. The president of the Board of Education might as well come to the conclusion the people don't intend to tolerate Roscoe C. Bruce. The people have in but one member of the investigating committee. The Parents-League will not have any star chamber investigation. The white people don't want Thurston, and the colored people don't want Bruce at any cost. Attorney Waring's Letter to the New York Times. To the Editor New York Times. Sir: Your editorial (Race Riots) under date of July 28, 1919, is a distinct shock to me. To my mind, and to the minds of thousands of thinking Negroes who read the New York Times, the amazing ignorance as to the conditions, political and economic, of the American Negro to-day, as related in the editorials, is deplorable; a great paper weighed down by a greater ignorance of the yearnings for manhood rights of 12,000,000 American citizens. It is very hard for one to believe that the New York Times, in touch with the pulse of all races, should know nothing, absolutely, as to the heart burnings of my people. Propaganda—German, I. W. W., Socialist, or Bolshevist—is all rot. Does the Times know that all this propaganda was tried out on the Negro while the draft was on? That it fell flat? Even though the Negro knew he was being forced to fight for "Democracy" which would not be accorded him. Detroit 33 H Street, N. E.

Two levels from the Union Station and one-half block from the Government Printing Office. By the Sage of the Potomac. The noisy crowd has been eliminated from the Supper Shows at the Howard Theater. The Supper Show last Saturday was the prettiest banquet that you would want to witness. Speaking about gowns, they were beyond description. Facial beauty was unsurpassed. The entire theater was packed, and my good friend, Vincent, and his assistants in the box were right on the job. Since Vincent has returned from over the seas he knows how to pick. When they don't suit he passes them to the next. He says there are just as good in the sea as there are upon land. Andrew was very much in evidence last week. He is making observations. He anticipates some change in the arrangements of the theater shortly. If you really want to know what is going on at Howard, keep your eyes on the Sage. Everything, was beauty last Saturday evening. The ticket box was decorated as well as every orchestra seat. If I were looking for a wife, I would be puzzled if I stood in the lobby of Howard. No man could be blamed if he were arrested for bigamy. Howard University has been revolutionized. The under bosses have been given their seats and they know how to keep in their places. There is an air of freedom among the poor understrappers. Dr. Scott is right on the job and Howard University has taken a jump. **** Speaking about the medical department. Dr. Durkee will consider the changes in that department on his return to the city. That department is in need of renovating and there will be a housecleaning shortly. The Boule and Blue Birds are an inseparable institution. If both institutions were dissected, you would find surprising ingredients. It is a combination of all kinds of mixtures that is beyond comparison. I have not heard from the local statesmen on the riot as yet. Well, they will not come out of the ground until next year. The National Republican Committee will issue a call for the election of delegates and the white Republicans will come from under cover. Orators and oratory will be seen and heard upon every corner. The virtues of politicians will be extolled and the pettitoggers endeavor to hoodwink the people. But, they will know who was who. The real men will be selected. The hypocritical politician will not be able to convince the masses against this knowledge of men. The money sharks have begun to organize. The fleeing politician will select his candidate. THE HOME OF THE RED CAP PERFECTLY SANITARY A SENSIBLE REJOINDER. Arthur G. Woods Proprietor CONCERNING You probably have tried all sorts of remedies on your scalp without getting the desired results, until you have become discouraged and lost confidence in all hair remedies. Thousands of others, like yourself, finally turned to using Seeby's Quinade, and have been so pleased with the result they would never again waste their time or money using anything else. Quinade is not an ordinary pumade; it is highly medicated and is a real scalp food. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long, straight hair. It will make coarse, stubborn hair soft and silky, and easy to put up in the style desired. Quinade will positively allay, itching of the scalp; and dandruff, which is the real cause of most hair and scalp troubles. To get best results from the use of Quinade, one should shampoo the scalp every two weeks with Seeby's Quonasoap, a soap made entirely of pure vegetable oils. Quinasoap lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequaled by any other shampoo. Insist on getting Seeby's' Quinade and Quinasoap, asking for them by their full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them from his wholesaler for you, or send us the price and we will mail them to you direct.

E Your conclusions, in very ambiguous language, that the Negro is being incited or may have been incited to the acts of violence of which complaint has been made during the past few weeks (the Negro, of course, is the guilty party) may be well taken, should you be able to eliminate the civilized burnings by orderly citizens; the advertised dating of such burnings, the treatment accorded the American Negro soldier, regardless of the uniform he wore; the disfranchisement of hundred of thousands of them; the Jim-Crowism; the denial of his civil rights; should you be able to eliminate these things, then, may be, your editorial names the basic causes of the present uprising. My conclusion, as one of the race, is, however, as the New York Herald puts it, that "the worm has turned." Ben Tillman was opposed to compulsory education because the law applied to the Negro children of his State. He had a far-reaching vision for oppression. Educate 9,000,000 people, take 6,000,000 of them through high schools, 4,000,000 of them through your own high schools, 1,000,000 of them through your colleges, and keep them hewers of wood and drawers of water? Such a proposition is only tenable in the brain of some American white man. One more conclusion is, that unless my people get their God-given rights guaranteed under the Constitution of these United States," his right to life, liberty, and happiness, he will fight for them. I am enclosing copies of letters addressed to the President of the United States, which letters may give you some little idea of a Negro's point of view as to his peoples' rights in the body politic. I suggest to the Times, in the words of this editorial, that since "we (New York Times) stand at present amid the outburst of social forces of which we know little, that it is time for the authorities (and the Times) to stop wool-gathering and begin to find out the facts." Very truly yours, Robert Lewis Waring. TAKES CIGARMAKER TO TASK. Asks' Denial or Affirmation of Alleged Statement—Matter Not Yet Settled—Druggists to Discuss Boycoting at August Meeting.

It is alleged that this cigarmaker said, during the week of the race riots, that as soon as the militia is removed from this city the colored people would be treated worse than they were during the East St. Louis race riots a few years ago and would be driven from this city, especially those who have homes and consider themselves the higher-class Negroes. The druggists' secretary withholds the name of the firm and states only that they carry several leading brands of cigars largely smoked by members of our race, and as soon as all plans are completed in this case, the public will be told the full particulars.

This irritation is not local, but communicates from circle to circle, and propogates itself from leaf to leaf. Up to a certain point it gets accustomed to outside interference. Touching it again and again will habituate it to the movement and fail to respond, as if it were owing to the first instance to fright. The sleep of plants vaguely recalls to us the sleep of animals. Their period of sleep is mostly at night, and any interested person may observe this habit in a variety of plants, as many of them when asleep are difficult to recognize in their bearing. The leaves are rolled up, or become reversed, as in the Vetch, the sweetpea, the broad bean. In their sleep their leaves rest in the night one against the other. Parental solicitude is displayed in Orach-root. The leaves of this plant fall back upon the young shoots and inclose them whenever the effects of the atmosphere would injure them. This is also seen in the chickweed at night. The folding of some flowers in the absence of the sun, and the opening of others as soon as that luminary has withdrawn his beams, are ascribable to various causes. The white Marigold closes its flowers on the approach of rain, and the dwarf Colandrina folds up its bright crimson corolla about 4 o'clock every afternoon; while, on the contrary, the plant commonly called Four O'Clock, whose flower remains closed all day, opens precisely at the hour of 4. The evening primrose will not open its large yellow flower till the sun has sunk below the horizon. On the other hand, the sunflower is always seen bending its face in the direction of the sun, and follows its course during the entire diurnal round, from its rise in the Orient, or East, in the morning, to its decline in the Hesperin region, or West, in the evening. The Compass-weed always points its leaves toward the North, Star. The Night-blooming Cereus only expands its flowers about midnight. Indeed, some flowers are so regular in their opening or shutting that we can present the flora's timepiece in which THE "BEGINNING AND MYSTERIES OF LIFE." The greatest sensation and the most daring of all motion pictures is coming to the Howard Theatre so that the colored citizens of Washington will have a chance to see the picture that has broken all records for shows in Washington in attendance and by being four weeks at the Belasco Theatre and three weeks at the Poli Theatre where it was shown at for admission from 25 cents to $1. Mr. a Thomas, manager of the Howard, has secured this production at a great expense, as he was determined that he wanted to have the patrons see this picture that has been causing such a sensation in the District. The picture will be shown at re-duced prices which will be 25 cents B and war, tax, to all. On account of the nature of the subject and the deli- each hour is represented by the flower, which opens or closes at that particular time. (To be continued next week.) Editor of The Bee: It seems that the cowardly ("good nigger") is ever with us. And whenever the colored brother dares to hold up his head and ask for what is rightfully due him there is always some long-coat parasite to pat him on the shoulder and tell him to be meek and humble; be patient under unjust persecution; it is too soon yet (after fifty years of freedom) to seek after the rights which he bought by his hard-earned money and his precious blood! Who of us that does not regret the shameful rioting which took place in this our beloved city a fortnight ago? Coming so soon after that world-famed evangelist, Billy Sunday, it is enough to make angels bow their heads and dash their glittering crowns at the feet of God and weep for the future destruction of our nation which seems to have forgotten that Jahovah still lives and reigns over the universe. For, truly, the religion, as it is put into practice by the latter-day saints, is but a sham and a mockery before God! And if this nation (may God have mercy upon it) can go on much farther without some dire calamity befalling it, then some attention is due "the fool" who hath said in his heart: "There is no God." But I started to speak of the cowardly "good nigger." One Bishop Charles Henry Phillips, of the Colored Methodist Church, seems to have turned up in Cleveland, Ohio, a few days ago and had himself interviewed on the recent lawless riots in Washington and Chicago. The bishop says: "I strongly advise the Negro to be patient, tolerant, and law-abiding, to abstain from all revengeful methods, remembering that lawlessness begets lawlessness and that reforms, following the world war, will take time." If the advise given by Bishop Charles Henry Phillips had fell from the lips of Senator Hoke Smith, or Vardaman, or Taft, we should not have been surprised. But when a Negro with the very small influence that Bishop Phillips has over his race, rises to use that little influence to crush the manhood of his race in order to curry favors with the prejudiced white-man, we have cause to be very much surprised. The colored race, as the world knows, has been patient and law-abiding; and it intends to be "law-abiding," but its "patience" is fast ceasing to be a virtue. The bishop advises the race to ever be patient while men and women of cate scenes, men and women will not be admitted at the same time.

The anti-Negro propaganda engaged in and put forward by the Southern political autocracy is simply the smoke screen, thrown up by the Southern Democracy, behind which they seek to bide their advances and aggressions upon constitutional democracy and free government. Assailing colored people, verbally and with physical force, serves to fasten the attention of the country away from the fact that such a thing as plain United States Government, so far as involves an honest ballot, is an unknown thing to all the people of the South. Attacking colored people changes the subject from the political repression through which political control is manipulated in the Southern States. It draws the nation from the truth, from insight into the actual condition, and diverts consideration on the part of the American people of a political situation in the Southern States which amounts to nothing less than the lynching of free government. It enables the political autocracy to cover up the withholding of constitutional democracy from a majority of whites, in addition to the robbing of the political rights of all colored. Those who understand the actual political condition in the South readily comprehend the motive behind all of this anti-Negro propaganda. There will be no cessation of it, it will not quit until that which inspires it, that condition it is put forward to uphold, has been removed and put out of being. The overthrow of the Southern political autocracy, this alone, will stop this persistent agitation against colored people. It ought to be brought to the thoughtful attention of every citizen in the North and West, it ought to be constantly kept before all the people of the entire country, that it is a characteristic of Southern Democratic methods to indulge in intrigue and false representation.

The three thousand or more representative citizens who braved the rain last Monday night in response to the call of the executive committee of the National Race Congress fully demonstrated their patriotism and determination to raise a defense fund for those men who risked ‘their lives recently in defense of their homes, their wives and children, It was a gathering of colored citizens who mean to defend themselves. against all future attack$\of mobs. The, speech of Secretary Hawkins in defense of right and justice was a masterly and manly one. He did riot mince his words. He means to defend his home, his wife and children-against mob rule. : He doesn’t mean to invade anybody's home, and neither did he advise his people-to make assaulis ‘apon- anyone; but he did declare that he will defend his home, -his Wife and his childten when a mob invaded his‘ home. He’also advised colored citizens to go into the hardivaré business. It would be a good investment should the enemy attack them. “This declaration was the occasion for long applause. Every citizen sub- scribed to a defense fund of twenty thousand dollars—the amount to be raised. No person who was arrested in the recent riot is to: be without proper Counsel. All are to be properly defended, .It is so strange that citizens were arrested and.charged with carrying con- cealed weapons while: defending:.their person, ‘their homes,. their wives and-their,children.” It is.hoped that Congress will thoroughly investigate the activity of some police officers in arresting innocent colored citizens—entering their business places and looking for fire- arms. By what authority did a member of the detective corps enter a man’s place of business and search colored citizens? ‘This is only -one of the ‘many vile.acts that were committed by members of the police force in this city. _ yeaa : 2 ‘The black men will no longer tolerate outrages upon their per- son, their homes, their wives and-their children without. resenting it, and, in the name of twelye million colored Americans, don’t:start it again. Whilé-the black man is-loyal to his country, éncourage him to continue to be so. His home he will/defend, cost what it may. It has been charged that it was the rough element. Thank God it sas not the sdciety gentleman, because he was hdme peeping out of his window, so to: speak. . : ‘Those who braved the storm were true Americans—those who helped save France, from German’ invasion—and the recent: riot is their. compensation. . : 3 YOU BETTER NOT. Information reaches The Bee that there are certain white men who held a conference'soon after the recent race riot and discissed the feasibility. of using dynamite in two-certain directions. The Police Departineiit has’ been informed of what.is on foot. Certain quantities of dynamite are tobe obtained from the steel pldnt from time to time.and used at a certain, time.‘ The names of the con- spiritors are in the possession of a certain. representative colored citizen. The Bee takes this opportunity to inform these would;be assassins to beware of the day of retribution if such a diabolical deed is attempted or carried into effect. God alone can only stop the devastation that will follow. The citizens of Washington do not ‘mean’ to commit any’ offense against, life or property if théy-are Permitted to pursue their daily. walks peacably and’ without moles- tation. Let ‘every citizen guard his home and every neighbor guard the home of the other—white or black. ; a FALLS CHURCH GLEANINGS. ; decorations by, the Handicraft Club.

After some years he went to’ Whalen Seminary; ‘in Washington, and study in the theological department of the Haward University from 1897 to 1900. He was ordained in September, 1899, and received the degree of doctor of divinity. He was married to Miss Josephine Foley in 1901 and his daughter Ethel attends Dunbar High School in Washington.

Y., Aug. 10.—The only colored women's motor corps in the world is that of the Hayward Unit, a branch of the National League for Women's Service in New York City. If you can imagine the feeling of a man in the desert, coming unexpectedly upon an oasis, you will appreciate the surprise and joy of colored soldiers, lying wounded in New York hospitals, at sight of women of their own race to comfort and cheer them as they had so often seen their white brothers visited by other members of the League. While the work of the Hayward Unit may not be as extensive or as far-reaching as that of other departments, in point of personal service and results accomplished it is excelled by none. "Lonesome Louisiana," lying on a cot in the big ward at Debarkation Hospital No. 3, brightens visibly at the approach of Sergeant Pearl Murray, and when, she mentions that "some of the boys are going up to see a ball game this afternoon," and asks him to join the party, his exclamation of pleasure sounds as though he had forgotten all about being sick. There is no reason why a colored boy should feel lonely or neglected in New York. And judging by the number who have been entertained by the motor corps, there exists only satisfaction and happy memories for the colored convalescent when he leaves for his home town. Of the hundred thousand men welcomed by the Hayward Unit, the majority are natives of Georgia, Alabama, Missouri, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Tennessee. Forty members of the motor corps devote a large part of their time to the soldiers. With Captain Sadie Leavelle directing, Lieutenant Mae Kemp, Sergeants Murray and Anna Reid head the organization. Three ambulances, two busses, and a dozen cars owned by members are used in the transportation service. Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, a member of the National League, donated three motors for the use of the Hayward Unit. Every day the trim khaki colored ambulances may be seen standing in front of hospital entrances, ready for a load of convalescents to be taken to the races at Sheepshead or Jamaica, to a baseball game at the Polo Grounds, or on a "seeing New York tour." Chinatown, the Ghetto, Wall Street Riverside Drive, and Coney Island are interesting sights for the boy who has never before crossed the Mason Dixon Line. There is no form of recreation that the colored boy enjoys more than to see the largest city in the world, and to have its wonders pointed out to him. Debarkation Hospital No. 5. Polyclinic, and the Messiah Home, for shell shocked men, contribute hundreds of soldiers weekly to these trips. Officials of the hospitals are pleased with the arrangement as an aid to speedy convalescence: they declare that, with new thoughts to occupy the minds of the patients, their work is greatly fa- cilitated. Also they are secure in the knowledge that their charges will have excellent care while enjoying the outings, that they will be brought back on time, and that there is no danger of mishaps. The Hayward Unit maintains headquarters at No. 200 West 139th St. Comfortable rest rooms for reading, writing, and relaxation are provided, and a fine piano, player-piano, and victrola are placed at the disposal of visiting soldiers. Sunday picnics in the country are popular features of the work of the Unit, as are minstrel shows, parades, and carnivals. But the greatest boon of all is an opportunity for self-expression in music; the colored race might as well be deprived of food as of its little gatherings for singing and playing musical instruments. Among those who have been entertained at the club house are members of the 369th Colored Regiment, commanded by Col. "Bill" Hayward, which won such lasting fame as the originators of "jazz" music. A Missourian, en route for a ball game, said recently: "Down South, we thought New Yorkers were cold, indifferent folks, and that we'd just have to wait in misery for our discharges and a chance to get back home. I'll say 'the women of the Hayward Unit have been pretty nice to us, and when I get down home I'm going to tell them all about the good times we've had. The fellows didn't expect anything like this, and they're having the time of their lives. Why, New York folks are just like home folks, after all." The activities of the motor corps are not confined to military operations, however. Civilian hospitals, orphanages and old folks' homes come in for their just share of relief work. Old men and women, friendless and dispirited, are gladdened by a motor ride to and from church on Sundays The Lincoln Home for Old Folks (colored) sends many to church through the efforts of the League. Four thousand orphans were recently entertained at an amusement park near the city; their day including the free distribution of ice cream, candy, and cakes. The motor corps has proven its worth. Captain Leavelle is rewarded by the ability to look backward on the work done thus far and face the future saying: "The Hayward Unit, in brightening the path of the sick and unfortunate, is attaining the utmost in personal service." THE NEW SPIRIT. (From the Rochester Post Express, July 29.) Race rioting in Chicago, brutal, bloody, ominous, follow fast on the heels of the shameful outbreaks in Washington. This unfortunate and disgraceful state of affairs has been for a long time gloomily foreboded by thoughtful residents of the South and was specifically predicted some days ago by James Weldon Johnson, field secretary of the National Association of Colored People. He feared there would be riots elsewhere, and that they would be serious when they came. The colored men, he said, will no longer run away and hide as they have in the past or submit to being beaten without cause. Throughout the South there are evidences that the Negroes are in a state of mind in which they have never been before. Their soldier service and the fraternal, kindly treatment they received across the seas has wakened in them a new feeling of self-respect. They were treated like men in France; and the question having arisen in the Chamber of Deputies of the rough treatment French colored soldiers are alleged to have received from the American military police in French ports, the chamber unanimously adopted a resolution upholding the equality of Negro citizens. "Faithful," it says, "to the immortal principles of the rights of man, condemning all prejudices of religion, caste, or race, the chamber solemnly affirms the absolute equality of all men without distinction of race or color, and their right to the benefit and protection of all the laws of the country." Can we wonder if our home-coming colored soldiers are now, throughout the South, in a mood to demand the protection our laws guarantee to all peaceable citizens irrespective of color? Can we wonder if they now demand the legal trial, conviction, and punishment of members of their race accused of offenses? Can we wonder if they refuse to be hunted down and beaten up as a race because some colored man is guilty of, charged with or suspected of crime?

SUCCESSFUL SUMMER SCHOOL Prof. Dudley .J. Greensboro Doing Good Work. Greensboro, N. C., July 24.—The Agricultural and Technical. College of North Carolina closes today, the most, successful’ summer school in the history of the educational system aniong the'race. There were in at tendance 275 teachers from all parts of ‘the State, . President James B. Dudley, who has been at ‘the: head of the institu- tion for over thitry years, in an ad- dress today, décldred that it was up to the Negro to make his place and not sit down and depend on others to do for him. “North Carolina is going to improve the- educational fa- cilities for our people f the rural districts as well as in the cities and towns,” he said, “and we should see to it that our boys and girls are edu- cated. -As ‘teachers, do your duty. Visit the homes- of our ‘people, urge mothers and fathers to educate their children.” Among those’ who lectured during the session were Dr. Allen, Leroy Locke, of Howard University, Wasl+ ington, D. C., the first member of the race to win’ the Rhodes Scholar~ ship in Oxford, Eng.; L. B. Moore, Ph. B., . Howard University; Prof. Benjamin Brawley,-Moorehouse Col- lege,. Atlanta,’ Ga.; H. H. Long, Clarke University, Atlanta, Ga.j Miss L. E. Wilks, Washington, D. 'C., Charles: Stewart, Chicago. A number of new features will be added next year. Prof. N, Murray, 4 graduate from Cornell University, will be the director of, agriculture. lle is now on the job. e FORCED HIM. TO SAY SO, It was then that: Attorney Alfred Lucking, senior counsel for Mr. Ford, arose and addressed the court: . “Your honor, they take this. modest witness and pound him into saying, "Yes, ‘I am an ignorant: idealist? 2 matter which. is entirely one of argu- ment. Now, it ‘seems to me they should not pound a witness ito con- fessing things of that kind before a jury. To, be allowed to pound a man of Mr. Ford's type, retiring,- modest, who doesn't like to appeai in public, and push him into saying. things against himself is utterly cruel. Te is the easicSt. man. in the world to, get to say things against himself. I say to your, honor that this is the most brutal examination I have ever lis- tened to.” - : To this impassioned defense, which came from a loyal friend as well as an attorney, Mr. Ford interposed quietly: “It doesn't matter. I will answer as near as I can.” Quiet, courteous and willing to an- swer dny question put to him by Tribune attorneys, Mr. Ford changed ‘immediately when his own lawyers questioned’ him. Out of his seven days on'the stand he gave -his counsel less than ‘two hours of time. ,Time after time he refused to be questioned on subjects which he could “have de~ scribed with mich credit: to himself. He would not talk on the war -work done by his concern,.on the amount of money he subscribed for Liberty Bonds, or of his hopes for. bringing about better conditions between capi- tal and labor, Of his war work, he said, “We did all-we could. .-Let it go at that. I don't want to talk about it, I feel like the soldiers on that: point.” : ‘ It was an illuminating light on the nature of the man who shrinks from praise and who will not condone arly; thing which may be said to approach self-glorification. ‘ He did, however, explain that he had ‘permitted his son, Edsel Ford, to: buy out the minority stockholders of the Ford Motor Company because these .interests. were opposed, to his plans ‘for distributing profits -by in- creasing the pay of the workmen and cutting the cost of the car. He could not go ahead-as he .wished, so long as the minority stockholders were as- sociated with him, and he decided to sell out and organize another corpo= ration... Edsel Ford, however, con- ducted negotiations which resulted in the Fords acquiring. complete: control, « . REV. LAMKINS.- Editor The Bee: g . | I regard the .position of ‘religious editor of The Bee, to which I have been elected, as a: most important one, I think it a compliment to any clergyman to be elected as a religious editor of a great paper, and -I.am grateful. for the honor thus conferred ‘upon me.
