Liberty Hut Crowded With Disting- guished Citizens—Justice Stafford Makes the Greatest Speech. The sum of $410.47 in cash was collected and $800 in pledges taken toward a memorial for America's colored heroes by the 2,500 Negroes and others who attended the mass meeting at Liberty Hut Tuesday night. Every reference to the monument, which purposes to "honor the unstained war record of the black man," was met with cheers that shook the pillars of the building. Speakers of the evening were Secretary of War Baker, Secretary of the Navy Daniels, ex-Governor Glynn of New York, Dr. John Van Schaick, president of the District Board of Education; Associate Justice, Wendell Phillips Stafford of the Supreme Court, Col. Charles Young, Rev. Henry Collis, State Commissioner of Illinois; Rev. R. K. Christian, State Commissioner of Kentucky; Attorney Robert I. Miller, Prof. John R. Hawkins and Mrs. Julia Mason Layton. James S. Howard, secretary of the National Memorial Association, presented the plans of the organization for securing the proposed monument. F. D. Lee, president of the Memorial Association, presided. Secretary Baker proclaimed that the Negro made good as a soldier on the western front in the world war. "When I visited France I found the colored man doing his share of the work from the embarkation port to the first line trenches," said the Secretary of War. "Up in the zone where death was spread about I found the black man and the white man fallen side by side." Loyalty to the Negro in the war was graphically illustrated by Secretary Daniels of the Navy, who told about being awakened in the night by secret service men who had dsicovered that Prussian agents were trying to buy off the colored men of America. "I know of the allegiance of the Negro, for I have heard of his unquestioned loyalty in every war of our land from Bunker Hill to the Ar- The Washington Bee gonne," Secretary Daniels said. "I informed the intelligence men that they could go home and rest, for if Prussia was going to waste, her money in trying to corrupt the patriotism of the Negro she would bankrupt herself in vain." Dr. Van Schaick, who acted as master of ceremonies, paid homage to the courage of the colored soldiers and the abiding faith of the Negro race. Ex-Governor Glynn recounted the heroic exploits of Henry Johnson, of Albany. X. Y., one of the Negro heroes of the world war, who is reported to have killed four Germans and wounded twenty-eight others, when he was surrounded in "no man's land." Justice Stafford reiterated the statement of Secretary Daniels, that he hoped Congress would make an appropriation for the erection of the proposed memorial. "But if Congress will not build it, then the race will erect this monument to the glory of its heroes who gave for freedom." Justice Stafford said, and the applause almost rocked the building. "Cite me a case of a Negro traitor." Justice Stafford added. "Show me a Negro anarchist," he said. "Let me see a Negro bolshevist," he went on. "The only red flag the Negro ever carried was when his shirt was stained crimson by the sacrificial blood he gave for America," the Justice announced, and again the tabernacle quaked from the acclamation of approval. Justice Stafford started off the memorial fund by offering $250 toward the monument. Dr. Van Schaick pledged $25. Undivided support was voted the bill presented before Congress by Representatives Dyer and Sherwood and which calls for a monument to the colored heroes. Regrets at their not being able to attend the meeting, but promising their support to the movement for securing the memorial, were received from Vice-President Thomas R. Marshall and General John J. Pershing. Present besides the thousands of WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1919 Washington citizens were six companies of regular army men from Camp Meigs, two detachments from the War College and Fort Myer, one detachment from Washington barracks, former service men of the 388th and, 372d regiments of infantry, 808th Pioneer Infantry, separate battalions of the former District of Columbia National Guards and several fraternal orders of the District.

Mattingly, its president, as delegate to the American Federation of Teachers' Convention, which is being held in Chicago, December 25 to January 2. Messrs. Edward Lawson and Archibald Ray were elected as the Grade Union representatives. The Dunbar-Armstrong Union has been very active during the present school year. Mr. Mattingly and Mr. Compton have served the teachers both on the Teachers' Council, which sits with the Board of Education, at times, and as spokesmen, before the salary reclassification committee in Congress. The able way in which the teachers' claims for increased salary has been presented has been due to President Mattingly's arduous work. At a late meeting, it was voted to extend an invitation to the Normal School faculty to join with this union of teachers. Every effort is being made to safeguard the interests of the colored schools in all legislation and schemes for reorganization proposed. VIRGINIA N. A. A. C. P. BRANCH The N. A. A. C. P. Bulletin this month publishes an article entitled "An Experiment in Virginia," dealing with the scheme inaugurated by the former Falls Church branch of the N. A. A. C. P. whereby the branch activities extend throughout an entire county, instead of a town or city. The article reads: "Thus it is with great pleasure that we announce the birth of our first county branch—the Fairfax County Branch of Virginia. In the vicinity of Falls, Church, where we have for some time had a live branch, there are a number of rural communities whose population is not nearly so congested as cities. These communities are too small for the progressive development of full-fledged branches, so they have decided to unite into a county organization, consisting of four units, which they call locals. Each group of approaching fifty members was designated a local, with a committee of five people, whose duties are to be similar to those of the regular committees of the branches. Fifty members are the basis for one representative on the executive committee of the county branch. The branch intends as its main function for the year MEMORIAL through its units, to extend the knowledge of the work of the N. A. A. C. T. throughout the State and to persuade Negroes everywhere to become desirous of political, social and educational rights and to prepare the way to secure them. The members of the locals when there is no big issue at hand are to read periodicals and newspapers and the like to develop a thinking attitude toward the problem." We extend the Fairfax county branch our heartiest hopes for success in this untried field. COMMUNITY SERVICE. Activities at the community service clubs are pretty lively these winter days. Here you will find something doing all the time. Social pleasures and games are constantly being held for those who visit and enjoy the hospitality that is always to be found there. In addition to these nice little affairs, a lot of helpful service is given—lots of men are obtaining employment there, and the home registration service helps everybody who desires their services to obtain houses, flats, rooms, etc., so anyone in need of such accommodations will do well to visit. The service is entirely free. The good work that is being done there is evidenced by the fact that a number of fraternal, social and civic organizations are making use of the large hall as a meeting place. Last Sunday the Uplift League met there and the National Memorial Association are making this place their headquarters. One or two of the young ladies sewing clubs are also making use of the club to hold their weekly meetings. Any individuals or organizations desiring such a place, would do well to make inquiries at the office, 2011 Georgia avenue northwest—Club No. 3. Just recently a new club has been opened up in the southwest section, at 18 L street southwest. At present this place is undergoing a number of repairs, and all modern improvements are being added, so when it has been completely repaired and overhauled community service will be in a position to render very valuable aid and assistance to the people of the southwest. Already they have shown the need of such a place by making use of the club for a number of meetings, even though it is undergoing repairs. It will be known as Club No. 4. On Tuesday and Friday nights at Club No.3, dances are held under the supervision of the directress in charge of girls' work, and on Saturday night the big dance draws its usual big crowds, and as the winter season has set in these dancing parties are growing more and more in favor and are becoming the center of activities. They are all properly chaperoned, so the public is ever welcome to come out and enjoy the hospitality of the same. There are no charges. THE NEW COURTHOUSE. Equal Accommodations for Colored Americans. The District of Columbia Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored. People has been successful in obtaining equal accommodations for colored people in the new courthouse restaurant recently opened. Shortly after the new courthouse was dedicated, a few weeks ago, it was brought to the attention of the branch officers that colored lawyers and their clients were not served in the restaurant. Mr. Neval H. Thomas, a member of the branch executive committee, immediately took the matter up with the Supreme Court judges, pointing out to them the peculiarly unjustifiable character of such discrimination in a courthouse recently dedicated to justice and democracy. He went to the restaurant after waiting a reasonable length of time for an answer, but was refused service. Taking the matter up again, he found that a separate room had been set aside for colored law- yers and their clients. Refusing to accept this compromise, he called on the judges personally and laid the matter before them, with the result that the separate room was abolished and the restaurant proprietor instructed to serve all on the same terms. THE GREAT EVANGELIST Alexander Willbanks in Another Ten Nights' Gospel Fight—Philadelphia Gone Wild—Gray-haired Men of 75 Fall to His Gospel Plea. Thousands of Every Denomination Took the Prayer Pledge. Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 12.—Another great campaign closed in a whirlwind of spiritual enthusiasm and the devil thoroughly routed and a great many saved and slackers rounded up, renewing their covenant and joining the many churches. This great meeting took place in South Philadelphia, Pa., at the Mt. Hebron Baptist Church, Fifteenth and Wharton streets. Rev. Dr. Chandler, pastor. This beautiful edifice has just recently been bought by this congregation at a very great cost and is a credit to the people. On the arrival of the evangelist and his wife great crowds greeted them. People came from all over the great City of Brotherly Love and many pastors were present each evening to witness the great fight between Dr. Willbanks and Satan, who was knocked out at the first sermon, and many joined the different churches. From the first night this fight was kept up, the evangelist hurling each evening great Gospel bombshells into the devil's camp like thunderbolts from Jovree. Several old gray-haired men, 75 years old, were among the many converts, and Catholics were converted to the Baptist faith and were baptized. Thousands of all denominations took the prayer pledge and became links in the great prayer chain started by Dr. Willbanks, until 15,000 people to date are praying daily to God to stop all forms of injustice that are being perpetrated upon our people. The slogan is "jim-crowism, mobviolence, segregation, lynching and race hatred must go." The evangelist and his wife, after receiving every courtesy and full remuneration from the hospitable people of Philadelphia, stopped at the palatial home of Deacon and Mrs. Smith. Deacon Smith is a very MR. JUSTICE STAFFORD Who Delivered a Great Speech for the Colored Memorial at Liberty Hut. (Special to The Bee.) wealthy man and a member of the Mt. Hebron Baptist Church. He turned his beautiful car over to the evangelist and his wife and furnished a chauffeur to drive wherever they wanted to go. The evangelist and his wife returned home Saturday evening and he was greeted Sunday at both services by great throngs. Sunday evening hundreds were turned away. The evangelist will preach Christmas Day at 11 o'clock. His subject will be "Christ the World's Great Gift." Special music by the choir of Tenth Street Baptist Church, Prof. Kelly, chorister. On his return home Saturday evening, several invitations from North Carolina were waiting Dr. Willbanks urging him to come to that State and conduct revival meetings. Dr. Willbanks is tzyled "the modern Joshua." ACADEMY'S TWENTY-THIRD ANNUAL MEETING HELD The American Negro Academy will hold its 23rd annual meeting on Monday and Tuesday, the 29th and 30th, at the Y. M. C. A., Twelfth street. On Monday night, at 7:30 o'clock, President Grimke delivers his annual address on "The Shame of America," and Bishop Hurst reads a paper on "The Status of the Foreigner Under the Various Haytian Constitutions." On the following Tuesday night Mr. A. Philip Randolph, editor of "The Messenger," of New York, will address the Academy on "The New Radicalism and the Negro." The public are cordially invited to these meetings. Rev. M. W. D. Norman. D. D. LL. D. will preach a special sermon at the McKinley Memorial Baptist Church, corner Fourth and L streets nort. west. Rev. S. Geriah Lankins, pastor, at 3 p. m., Sunday, December 21st. It will be a treat to hear him. AMPHIONS SCORE SUCCESS. The Amphion Glee Club, assisted by Mme. Anna Hazelton Lee, coloratura soprano, were given a great ovation when they appeared in recital commemorating their 28th anniversary at Dunbar High School Auditorium on Tuesday evening. Each selection given by the club was heartily enclosed, and Mme. Lee showed fine technical training in her selections. The patrons embraced many of our most distinguished people. 12 for the Colored Memorial at Liberty H --- wl 2 = . = ‘ . ool a i = *. . { is hy go-down town! “When you can buy the same goods for less money at Taylor's, Combare. prices bel ZI : : og | of other stores 3 a re. ¢ a Po : “ts | The Little Store with the Big Reputation | ; 7 - : a — Jewelry Jewelry | Jewelry | Eres ‘Eee ons cor ee , a oa PES ae eae ’ eee Ti5e SA ae oe 2222 A a cha So Ne ease eo prs Ey ab * ¥ roe < eT IAT Ha: | ere ve re y : ea en Ta ei oA oe ce aa s 4 ; eee ae a ee oe i ae tons cS ee 2 A i S «=, Bee hg 7 FP ae i io Sed Ceo | ee ERLE) ; fg - REPAIRING A SPECIALTY-- ~ ag Ss ae : : 1 | a Sey Af ae - er . eee ESOL.

The National Training School, Durham, N. C. The image shows a street view with a row of buildings on the left side, featuring a mix of residential and commercial structures. The road is wide and appears to be a main thoroughfare. The sky is overcast, suggesting a cloudy day. I have noticed for sometime the interest which you have taken in the National Training School of this city, and I wish to take this opportunity of thanking you in behalf of the community for your many efforts in connection with the building up of this institution. It has grown from a small plant to an institution of influence and power, both in our own community and throughout the country at large. The work being done there by Dr. Shepard and his associates is worthy of the highest praise, and I feel that his continued efforts, combined with the valuable assistance which you and the other friends of the institution have given it, will inevitably result in furnishing to our State and our country a body of well-trained and efficient negro workers. I understand that you are now contemplating another trip in behalf of the school, and I merely write this letter for the purpose of wishing you all success and abundant results.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through its chairman, Mary White Ovington, has issued a statement challenging a resolution of the American Legion of South Carolina, which stated that the association's activities would, tend to cause friction between the races. The statement, which asserts that colored soldiers from South Carolina outnumbered white and that the percentage of illiteracy among the colored troops was less than among the white, is as follows: "I am at a loss to understand your position regarding the work of a body that lays special stress upon securing due process of law rather than mob violence for Negroes, whether they live in the North or the South. Our branches, in whatever States they may operate, voice the sentiment of the educated, law-abiding Negroes who have so recently helped America to achieve victory in the great war. We note, however, that your resolution condemning our activities is from 'the American Legion of South Carolina representing the white soldiers who fought in the recent great war.' "We feel that we are right in considering also the opinion of the colored soldiers of South Carolina, who outnumbered the white, particularly in view of the fact that among the colored there was less illiteracy than among their white comrades at arms. "Very truly yours, "Mary White Ovington. "Chairman."

The Republican National Committee met in Washington last week and fixed the date and city for holding the next Republican National convention. There was nothing unusual in that transaction - it was but a reoccurring, every four years, proceeding. There was one thing, however, lacking to make that meeting of the Re- national Committee encouraging to Colored voters, and that was the absence of a single Colored representative on the com- mite a 1000 (600) dependable constituency was without representation. As an assumed onion of harmony, it was observed, those whitelepkins who strayed from the fold in 1912, and by so doing became instruments to saddle upon the country the present Democracy national administration, which administration has done so much to retard the advancement of our race, were given choice seats at the banquet board, loaded down with honors—the fatted calf was killed for the returned prodigals, but the descendants of the poor "migratory Ham" were not so much as offered the crumbs that fell from the festal table. We want Republican victory next November, but we prefer it only because we nurse the hope that with the exit of the Wilson administration some semblance to justice will be ushered in for the Colored voter. Hardly had our exuberance over the election of a Republican Congress reached its climax when that Congress, which two million Northern Colored voters helped to elect, proceeded to defeat, in the House of Representatives, the Madden bill to abolish jim-crow cars. The defeat of this bill by our supposed friends was; to us, like a stab in the back. To say the least it was a poor recognition of the services the Colored race rendered during the war over here and "over there"; it was a poor recognition of the aid our Colored voters gave to secure a Republican Congress, and it was a shabby way to requite a constituency that had remained loyal and true to the party when others, who since have been restored to party councils and heaped with honors, labored to encompass the defeat of the party. Following the defeat of the Madden bill to abolish jim-crow cars—defeated by a Republican lower house of Congress—two white union labor men, one a union official, down in Louisiana, were killed while defending a Colored laborer. It seems increditable, almost, that such a thing should take place in the South; but it did, and the act and incident constitutes a weather-vane—"it points a moral and adorns a tale." The Labor party is to bid for the Colored vote; the Socialist party has been bidding for it—making some rosy promises. The fact that white members of white organized labor in lynch-encrusted Louisiana dared to make the supreme sacrifice in defense of a Colored member of their organization must necessarily give weight and reason to the Labor party's bid for the Colored vote. Our sympathies, and our hopes, in spite of the defeat by a Republican Congress of a bill to abolish jim-crow cars, and in spite of the defeat of the Beaty Civil Rights bill by a Republican legislature in Ohio, are still bound up in the Republican party, and for that reason we feel impelled to point out sins of commission and omission which should be atoned for. If seceding white Republicans can return to the fold after they had aided in the defeat of the party, and are received with open arms and acclaim, feted and loaded down with honors, surely the dependable Colored voters who went down with the ship rather than desert her are entitled to JUSTICE, and such justice as will remove the restrictions the Democratic party has long imposed upon them. We trust party leaders will realize that in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia and New York the big Colored vote is deserving of just recognition and equitable representation. Joseph C. Manning, the former member of the Alabama legislature, was a leader of the Populist-Republican Fusion party in Alabama and the South 1890-98. He organized the Southern Ballot Rights' League in 1895 and conducted a nation-wide campaign against the black belt frauds of the South. Remained in Washington in 1897 and aided in the fight resulting in unseating more than twenty counted in Democratic members of Congress from the South. Mr. Manning has conducted propaganda against disfranchisement in the South since 1902; has spoken throughout the North on Southern political conditions, and has contributed articles to the leading Republican papers of the country, showing the motive and the effect of disfranchisement; has continually contributed articles to leading Colored papers and has addressed audiences of Colored people in every section of the nation. Recently the National Republican, Washington, D. C., the organ of the Republican party, published a series of articles by Mr. Manning on Southern conditions. Mr. Manning is now active in urging the passage of the Senate resolution introduced by Senator George H. Moses, which proposes an investigation of Southern political conditions. Mr. Manning was a close friend of Hon. W. E. Chandler, a former United States Senator from New Hampshire, and who, when living, strongly upheld Mr. Manning in his fight for free government for the South- NOT BOLSHEVIKS—JUST AMERICAN INJUSTICE. A report has gone out from Washington, and certain Southernized officials and Negro detractors are nursing it as a fact, that evidence has been discovered that Bolsheviks are at work among the colored people of this country. These Southernized officials and real enemies of the race are conveniently blind to the fact that the practice of lynching colored people in America, of burning them alive, without hearing or trial; of denying to them—the race—the right of suffrage in the South; of discriminating against them in both the North and the South, antedates by many years even the first conception of Bolshevism. We heard nothing of this so-called "Bolshevism" until the unrest in Russia had inflamed and aroused the persecuted common people during the world war. Bolshevism is a comparatively new development. American injustice to the oppressed and persecuted American-born colored man is more than a century old. It began with the forcible landing of African slaves at Jamestown, Va., by Southern whites, and it has never ceased—not even when the race was spilling precious blood to establish this government; not even when colored soldiers were falling by the thousands to preserve this country as one and indivisible, during the Civil War; not even when our blood and kin were fighting and dying in the jungles of Cuba and the Philippines to atone for the loss of "The Maine"; not even when our boys were drenching the soil of France "to make the world safe for democracy," as our unsolicitous and Negro-avoiding President so beautifully declared. Denial of suffrage, hurtful and hateful educational restrictions, jim-crow cars and other forms of discrimination, wholesale lynching of colored men, and even colored women about to become mothers, and the horrible, cannibalistic revelries of Southern whites, burning alive colored men and women who have been merely charged with some crime, is not the work of Bolsheviks—it was and is the work of Americans. The Bolsheviks have not tainted the colored people of this country with their iconoclism. The Bolsheviks have not aroused colored people to rebel against orderly government. For white officials of the national administration at Washington and the Negro-hating South to nurse such a delusion is merely for the purpose of shutting their eyes to the real, fundamental cause for the unrest among the colored people in this country. It is not Bolshevism that denies to the race EQUAL RIGHTS, EQUAL PRIVILEGES and EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES we won on many a bloody battlefield below Mason and Dixon's line; in Cuba, in the Philippines and in France. It is not the Bolsheviks who provide jim-crow cars for colored Americans—even those who returned from France decorated with medals of honor and horrible battle scars. It is not the Bolsheviks who are doing the lynching of colored people in the South. It was not Bolsheviks who started the East St. Louis, Washington, Chicago and Knoxville riots, and it is not Bolsheviks—at least not the Russian type—who own American theatres, hotels and cafes in American cities, who refuse admission, or segregate, respectable, cultured, loyal colored people. No, and that, too, with emphasis, it is not Bolsheviks, but just AMERICAN INJUSTICE, that is responsible for the unrest prevalent among the twelve million colored people of this country. The lily-white Republican organization and that hand-picked Republican committee will meet their Waterloo. National Committeeman Hollisbury will meet the same fate that his predecessor met. The handwriting is on the wall. The Bee congratulates the committee that had in charge the memorial for colored soldiers. Secretary Howard is a worker. SPECIAL NOTICE.

It was a dinner that cost $2.50 per, and Dr. Jolly's 75-cent per would have been equally as edifying. When places are in sight, the hunters don't mind going down in their jeans and handing out $2.50 per. It was a prohibition gathering which, of course, did not settle thirsty appetites of the "antis." Judge Robert H. Terrell was toastmaster, and there were several decayed speeches that were uncorked, which gave the atmosphere an unwholesome tang. The new exalted ruler of Columbia Lodge, No. 85, has some sense. He doesn't propose to be ruled by a lot of hot-headed soreheads, who will some day return to the man who has made Columbia Lodge what it is today. Exalted Ruler Dixon had better have the ill will of persons for doing what he believes to be right than have the good will of those who have axes to grind. Whatever may be the faults of E. G. Bandy, the lodge some day will see its mistake. Exalted Ruler Dixon will have the support of ex-Exalted Ruler Bundy and his faithful allies, who went down with him. Mr. Dixon would rather have the support of those he defeated than those who supported him to enable them to grind their axes. First, ask yourselves what has the exalted ruler done to incur the ill will of the kickers. His record shows that he increased the membership of his lodge from eighty-five to over a thousand. It also shows that he has purchased a home and turned over to his successor several thousand dollars and established a sinking fund for building purposes. Let's see what his successor will do. Will he allow the disgruntled to take down what Exalted Ruler Bundy has built up? Will he be ruled and guided by the drones who were put out of the De 33 H Detroit 33 H Street, N. E.

Let the drones remain out where they belong, and admit men of the higher order —men who will be a credit to the organization. If the new exalted ruler will follow the friendly suggestion of the Sage, he will be a factor. If he allows himself to be controlled by the drones, his failure will be due to his own stupidity. The Sage has great faith in him. Those who attended the meeting of the National Republican Committee at the Willard last week must have been convinced that the day of the old-time colored politician had fled to parts unknown. There stood Georgia, with two-thirds of the colored vote in the State, with no representation on the National Committee. There were many exes who were political nonentities at their own homes, but exes after they arrived in this city. These exes are repudiated by the people in this city, hence they line themselves up with the Democratic Board of Trade and make every effort to transfer the local election of delegates to that body. It failed, however, and now the people will elect them, with the advice and consent of the real voters. Now, will someone kindly name something these mushrooms have done? Not one of them could be found during the race riot. In a few months the air will be filled with what these local statesmen have done and what the other fellow has not done. The Parents' League has taken things into its own hands and has quietly given the lawyers to understand that it will do the business hereafter. Rev. Jarvis has filed a petition in Congress, and from all reports, it will have effect. It has been referred to the District Committee, and undoubtedly the Board of Education, will have some things to explain. * * * Now W. Calvin Chase is inaugu- t Cafe Arthur G.

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 pomade; 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 Seeby Drug Co., 14 Wooster street, New York City.

BUSINESS LEAGUE OPENS NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS Local Organizations to be Put on Sound Footing-Colored Bankers Cooperating with Business League Officials. The decision reached by the National Negro Business League at its meeting held in St. Louis, Mo., in August to establish at Washington national headquarters, is being carried into effect. Arrangements have been perfected by the secretary of the league, Mr. Emmett J. Scott, whereby a portion of the Y. M. C. A. offices, formerly occupied by Dr. J. E. Moorland and his staff of assistants during the war, shall be taken over and maintained hereafter as National Negro Business League headquarters. This arrangement is admirable, as the L. M. C. A. building is the center of Negro life and activity in Washington. The influences that count for most in the life of the colored people in Washington more or less radiate from the Y. M. C. A. building. The program to revive local Negro business leagues will be put under way at once and will be carried forward as earnestly as possible. The first movement in that direction has been to reorganize the Washington Negro Business League on the basis of $5 joining fee per member, with dues of $10 per year, payable quarterly, with a hope that this plan will be adopted by local Negro business leagues throughout the country. Forty persons have already come into the Washington league on these terms. Mr. T. J. Calloway, an experienced business man, has taken the leadership in cooperation with the secretary of the National League in reorganizing the Washington branch, and will have charge of a campaign throughout the county to put local Negro business leagues on a sound footing. Associated with them will be a live- OUR NEW HOME PORD COLLEGE PENDLETON AVE. ST.

No Clause Against Jim-Crow Cars in Cummins Bill—Colored Race Demands Abolition of This American Humiliation After Bloody War for World Democracy.3 Last week saw the opening of the regular session of the Sixty-sixth Congress. The chief interest of colored citizens was as to Jim-crow cars, aside from the curiosity, whether President Wilson would make recommendations against injustices to the race in his message, as requested in the "Open Appeal" of Secretary Trotter, of the Equal Rights League. The Cummins railroad bill was reported from the Interstate Commerce Committee on Wednesday and had no clause whatever against jim-crow cars. It is given the right of way. Every Northern Senator has received a petition from the National Equal Rights League to secure and support an amendment forbidding color segregation of interstate or denial of any grade of service because of race or color. Both Senator Frelinghuysen, Republican, of New Jersey, and Senator Walsh, Democrat, of Massachusetts, had promised assistance. The league also, on Thursday, telegraphed Chairman Cummins a request that a hearing on the matter be granted before the Interstate Commerce Committee. At a meeting of the national executive committee of the National Equal Rights League, held last Tuesday forenoon in the vestry of the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Rev. J. G. Robinson, until recently of Chattanooga, but exiled since his open letter to President Wilson on the Washington riots, was elected national organizer, in place of Rev. B. N. Murrells, who resigned and recommended. Rev. Robinson, whose address is to be at 631 Pine street, Philadelphia. The pressing duty of the race everywhere, churches, organizations and individuals, to make the test on world democracy and to uphold the manhood of the race is to at once write or telegraph Senator Cummins, chairman of the Interstate Commerce Committee, United States Senate, Washington, D. C., to grant a committee hearing for a clause A. NEW LIFE TABLETS NEW LIFE TABLETS For Men Only For lost manhood, nervousness, seminal weakness, nightly emissions, debility and impotence.

"I trust that The Bee will urge that letters be sent to Republican members of the House, urging this action." The National Republican, organ of the Republicans, has come out in a strong and leading editorial advocating a special committee precisely as advocated all along by Joseph C. Manning, who has liad the support of The Bee in his fight. E. W. Bundy UNDERTAKER and EMBALMBER 1911 9th Street, N. W.

UNEDUCATED Editor The Bee: I have been highly regaled by the recent roasts by you and the Sage of the Potomac of the "educated" colored man of Washington City. I do not know exactly what is meant by "educated man," but if reference is had to the colored men of Washington who hold high school certificates and college degrees, I beg leave to make some comment on the subject. My plea is "confession and avoidance." Our college men certainly deserve some shaming, scolding and prodding. They seldom take the lead in matters of public or private economic interest, and they are not good followers. It is a deplorable fact. But we must seek the why and wherefore in some fact other than the fact that these men are "educated." To deprecate and decry the quality and equipment of being educated would be an unsound proposition. It would be self-contradiction, if not absurdity. The trouble with most college men, white and black, is not that they are educated, but that they are not educated-not educated in the fundamental essentials of business equipment. This is more true of the colored than the white, for many obvious reasons. The simple fact is that but few of our colored college men have adequate knowledge of those practical affairs that concern the interests of large bodies or communities. They are not lacking in "race pride" and "group consciousness" any more than are the so-called uneducated colored men, and probably they average higher in the qualities of integrity and honor. In other respects they are simply like the so-called uneducated, to wit: They are sluggish, hopeless individualists. Yet their inactivity is the more reprehensible, because they possess enough fundamental training to enable them the better to market the necessary practical and technical knowledge and to take the lead in cooperative movements. I repeat, the average of them are men of integrity; only a few are not. A good deal has been said recently in this connection about the success of an alleged uneducated man, Mr. John Whitelaw Lewis, the implication being that an uneducated man can do things in business that an educated man can not or will not do. This implication is fallacious. Mr. Lewis is highly educated in his line of activity. He is an expert, a specialist. The editor of The Bee, does not parade his education, and yet he is one of the best educated men of my acquaintance. He is a master of his line as an editor and publisher. He may not dally much with poetry and transcendentalism, but he is singular in his mastery of the "art of situation," his ability to "put the question" and his success in sticking to and disposing of a point at issue in the fewest possible words. This means a well-trained mind. It is the quintessence of education, and few men there are who possess the art. I have no doubt that he would make a good bank president. The Sage of the Potomac (man of mystery, whom I do not know personally) is certainly an educated man in his line as a writer. If his type of education would not fit him to be a bank president, that would not be to his discredit. This is a day of specialism. It would be erroneous to say that college men were responsible for any of the past colored business failures in Washington. I challenge proof of it. I recollect the composition of the board of directors of both the Capital Savings Bank and the Alpha Insurance Company. I recall only one or two college men on the former board, and only one on the latter. The other board members and principal officers were men of limited or no academic education. The leading spirit and king-pin in the former institution was a well-to-do barber with limited book learning. The most of the board members of both institutions were doubly uneducated, having little book learning and no technical knowledge or experience in banking or insurance; they were mere figureheads. The two or three college men in question were also mere ornamental figureheads, as most board members are. They could not control the destinies of those companies. It was their duty to know what was going on, or to raise hell, or to resign. The college man on the Alpha board did kick over the traces and resign. I can give his name, if desired. The main trouble with us is not that we have education, but that we are lacking in education—education of the special sort, the technical sort, the right sort. I hope to see our college men and women emerge from their shells of seclusion and individualism. Let them put-aside for a time their books on poetry, fine arts and metaphysics, and stick their noses into books on agriculture, horticulture, manufactures, trades, money, exchange, merchandizing, real estate, architecture, building—in short, the practical arts. Let the college man touch elbows with the mechanic. In part defence of some of our college men and women, I venture the opinion that many of them are discouraged from public activity by reason of their sensitiveness and self-imagined refinement, dignity and honor, which consciousness deters them from attempting to compete for leadership with jealous, slippery, ignorant and blatant schemers, of whom there are too many. The ignoramus and rascal must be forced to take a back seat. Continue to rap the sluggish college man over the knuckles—because he is sluggish, not because he is "educated." Encourage him and develop him. We need him. Let us have more really educated colored men and women in business leadership. We Offer These Suggestions. Attorney A. W.
