Will He Extradite Them? APPEAL TO THE GOVERNOR OF KANSAS. COUNTRY ALARMED. VOL. XL NO. 35 Will APPEAL TO THE O KANSAS. CO EXTRADITIONS TO ARKANSAS FOUGHT BY LEAGUE. On Thursday, January 22, 1920, the National Equal Rights League sent the following telegram to Governor Allen of Kansas: For the sacred cause of life protection and of equal protection of the law, the National Equal Rights League appeals to you in behalf of court justice for the colored American to refuse extradition of one Robert L. Hill, colored, president of the Farmers and Household Union, to Arkansas, where the recent conviction of twelve fellow members in bunches with trials of but a few min- HOWARD UNIVERSITY NEEDS. An Urgent Appeal for Contributions for Current and Other Expenses—The Institution's War Record. Editor of The Bee: Howard University, founded by General O. O. Howard in 1865, needs at once an emergency repair and current expense fund of at least $50,000. The university plant in many important respects is greatly in need of repairs, while the need of money for current expenses is always pressing and immediate. The present restricted income of the university interferes with its growth and development. At a time like this, when there are so many calls for money, educational institutions for colored youth are likely to be overlooked, but it is my earnest hope that an institution as useful as Howard University may not be compelled to suffer for lack of proper support. Howard University bases its appeal to the public upon the record of its graduates, their place of leadership among the colored people and upon its proved usefulness during the past fifty-four years. It is the only Negro university exclusively devoted to collegiate and professional work. It trains a larger number of Negro college and professional students than any other institution of learning in the world. It is located at the head of the black belt and works in the heart of the black belt of the school a larger number of college and professional graduates than any other Negro institution. The steadying mounting influence for good of these leaders has been incalculable. During the recent war the university rendered service to our government of the highest and most patriotic character. It had more graduates and former students to receive commissions and serve as officers with colored military units than any other institution in America for the training of Negro youth. The computer facilities of the universities were placed at the disposal of the government. National army training detachments, students' army training corps, and reserve officers' training corps units were trained at the university. The student army instruction camp for seventy colored institutions of learning was also conducted here. In all, 1,786 men were trained for war work at Howard University. The student enrollment last year (1918-19) was 1,360 from thirty seven different States and ten foreign countries. The enrollment for this year (1919-20) is already 1,522. Dr. James H. Dillard, executive head of the boards administering the John F. Slater and the Anna T. Jeanes Rural School Funds has stated: "Howard University is the capstone of Negro education in America—and when we say America we mean the world." The late Booker T. Washington, who was himself a trustee of Howard University, before his death, said: "It is very important that the white people throughout this The Washington Bee utés indicates that rendition of Hill would make you party to another chapter in the most heinous miscarriage of justice and legal murder in America's history. You can ascertain by your own investigator, first hand, insisting upon seeing the records and books, that this union was one of reputable colored farmers, some ex-soldiers; to secure court protection of pay for their cotton against fraud by planters and not so kill off white Americans.

It will be very much appreciated if you will be good enough to call to the attention of your readers the urgent need of money for current expenses, as well as for the "needs" which are set forth in the circular which is enclosed. Contributions of $50 per year to cover incidental fees, etc. (tuition of a student for a year), or for current expenses in any amounts, however small, will be gratefully appreciated. Contributions (checks or Liberty Bonds) may be sent to Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of the university, or to the undersigned. J. Stanley Durkee. President, Howard University. Washington, D. C. January 20, 1920. R. W. THOMPSON SUFFERS FROM NERVOUS BREAKDOWN R. W. Thompson of the Adjutant General's Office, War Department, and general correspondent, is suffering from a nervous breakdown complicated with stomach troubles, and has been confined to his home, 1223 S street northwest, since December 11, 1919. He is under the care of a noted specialist in nervous and intestinal diseases. He has been confined to all general hospitals and public activities. Thompson is on indefinite leave of absence. The Parents' League Had an Informal Discussion Last Monday Night. Will Rev. Jernagin and Prof. J. R. Hawkins Report the People's Money? At a meeting of the Parents' League last Tuesday night, which was crowded and which has taken on new an important discussion was had as to the funds collected by the National Race Congress. The people who contributed money to the National Race Congress for the defense of those unfortunate colored men and women who were arrested in defending their helpless sisters and brothers, demand of the National Race Congress, of which Rev. W. H. Jernagin is president and Prof. John R. Hawkins financial secretary, to make a public report of those funds, of which they collected over three thousand dollars. Secretary Hawkins published a letter some time ago purporting to be a report, in which he stated that the lawyers received the money. President Royal Hughes of the Colored Bar Association depicts this, and so does every colored lawyer at the bar. Now, where has this three thousand or more dollars gone? Who received it and, for what purpose? Many arrests were made and only three hundred dollars spent for bond money. The Bee mentioned the name of a pharmacist at the corner of Pflie and WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JANUARY 31, 1920 "Willie Cute, a lack of four years, was hopelessly mangled under the wheels of a heavy motor truck while playing in the street during his mother's absence. Mrs. Cute was prostrated when she returned from work last night and found her little boy in a dying condition."—The News. Articles of this sort are appearing in the newspapers daily. Ask yourselves the reason why. The Alley Improvement Association has operated a Day Nursery at 1135 New Jersey Avenue N. W. for a number of years. Its work has been monumental, but its usefulness has rendered its facilities inadequate. The trustees have decided to build a new and larger building to meet the growing demand. Under the leaderhip and direction of Mr. Isaac C. Beddie, a 500-room facility has been projected to raise the money to carry forward this grant through service. You Have Given Freely to Government Drives—Give Just as Freely to Your Own Organization. The organization for the drive contemplates a city-wide campaign throughout the churches, schools and homes. Special speakers and campaigners will be selected to intensify interest by putting over a big Day Nursery Drive on SUNDAY, February 8, 1920. Periodical meetings are being arranged, beginning with a meeting of officers, trustees and workers at the Day Nursery, 1135 New Jersey Avenue N. W., on Tuesday, January 27th at 8 p.m. The Board of Education will probably grant permission for publicity in every school. The first scheduled mass meeting will be held at the Third Baptist Church, Fifth and Q Streets N. W., on Wednesday evening, February 4th, at 4 o'clock. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, President of the National Training School for Girls, will speak, and a special musical program will be provided. The next meeting, to be held at the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, will be formally announced later. The drive will conclude with "Tag-Day." February 21st, when an army of workers, under the following captains, will flood the District with Day Florida avenue who put up $25 himself to get a young colored man out on bond, while the National Race Congress refused to contribute a cent to the young man. The people want their money returned if it has not been used for the purpose for which it was collected. DRUGGISTS HOLD ELECTION. The Colored Druggists' Association of the District of Columbia, at its regular monthly meeting Thursday evening, the 22nd, elected their officers for the new year. The organization during the past year accomplished many commendable features and great credit is due to the administration under its outgoing president, Dr. Robert F. Plummer. This is the only druggists' association of our race throughout the entire country and the fellowship demands the respect of all. The scribe has learned that during the past year certain remarks were alleged to have been made reflecting upon the race by a cigar merchant of this city, and by the stern stand of these druggists demonstrated their weight. Dr. Plummer, who is now succeeded by Dr. A. C. Burwell, of Banks & Burwell, has been practicing in this city since during the 80's. He is keen to the business and made an excellent executive: Dr. Burwell, a native of this city, is a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy, and, with his partner, Dr. R. E. Banks, succeeded Drs. Gray and Gray at Twelfth and You streets, about four years ago. While pursuing his profession at Philadelphia, Dr. Burwell was elected president of the Iota Sigma Fraternity, which still holds the record of presenting the only mask and wig per- DAY NURSE "Willie Cute, a lad of four years, wheels of a heavy motor truck while plainsness.

Dr. Harris is a classmate of the new president, and was manager of the mask and wig performance during Dr. Burwell's tenure as chief executive of the college fraternity. It is through the office of Dr. Harris that all business of the association is transacted between the meetings. Dr. W. H. Jackson, of Jackson & Whipps, was elected treasurer to succeed the late Dr. L. H. Singleton. Dr. Jackson is the past grand master of the F. A. A. M. of the District and dean of the pharmacy department of Frelinghuysen University. The association is composed of twenty-four of the total twenty-six colored drug stores of this city. The association eulogized Dr. L. H. Singleton, who had served as the treasurer since the organization in 1917, and it believed that no set of people took Dr. Singleton's unexpected death deeper to heart than the druggists. Appropriate resolutions were directed to be sent the family. WHY COLORED PEOPLE FAIL Colored Enterprises Not Supported—The First Bank in the History of Washington Supported—Where the Majority of Colored People Deposit Their Money. The reason that so many colored enterprises fail in this city is on account of the lack of support accorded them by their people.

The Distinguished Senator From Maine-A Presidential Possibility for the Grand Old Party. The Hon. Bert M. Fernald, United States Senator from Maine, is one of the greatest men that this country has ever produced. He is charismatic, life faithful, loyal and true. The purest and best New England blood courses through his veins. He is one of the most conscientious men in public life. He is progressive and yet sufficiently conservative to satisfy the most exacting. The Leg takes this opportunity to again call the attention of the country to this modest and unassuming but able and wise salesman. The Republican party will do well, in casting about for a standard-bearer to carry the party to victory at the next presidential election, to give Mr. Fernald due consideration. The colored insurance company like the National Capital, that receives all of its support from colored people should be made to go to white people for its money. The bulk of the money of this great colored institution is deposited in a white bank. It has a white lawyer to look after its business, and yet it receives all of its support from the colored people. There is no doubt that the company is properly conducted, as it has a clear bill of health from the insurance commissioners. There are a number of colored druggists that deposit in white banks, while they get their business from colored people. Segregation in business may be a good thing, after all. There is only one institution in which you seldom, if ever, segregate, and that is in banks, except that you can't borrow, but you may deposit. If many colored people were permitted to bury their dead in white graveyards, colored graveyards would go barren. Since certain colored business enterprises receive all of their support from the colored people, and spend and deposit their money with them, it would not be a bad idea to allow them to select business enterprises to appeal to this class for their customers. It is the general remark of the colored members of the bar that there is a certain colored real estate individual who has no faith in colored lawyers and can always be seen, whenever he comes into court, with a lawyer of the opposite race, and yet this colored real estate individual gets all of his support from the colored people. CELEBRATED TENOR TAKES LEAVE OF AMERICA. Roland W. Hayes, celebrated Negro tenor, plains to sail in April for a tour of Europe, Asia and Africa. For many years it has been Mr. Hayes' ambition to carry his message of song through the principal countries of Europe and Asia; and then, turning farther southward, to tour Africa, Liberia, Algeria, Egypt, Zufulah and in Maine—A Presidential Possibility and Old Party.

The Republ ount for a standard-bearer to carry the initial election, to give Mr. Fernald due ers clear portions; in order to study the growth of native Negro music in this continent, the unexplored field of the primitive art. Mr. Hayes ranks among the leading concert artists of the day, and from his first appearance with the Pisk Jubilee Singers in 1911 his succeeding appearances in America have been artistic triumphs. Unbroken successes have greeted him in the East, the Middle West and the Pacific Coast. America unwillingly welcomed him into its group of eminent concert vocalists, and Boston, in spite of its super-critics, has given him the opportunity to attain high rank in the world of music. He has been compared with Caruso, and he has been called by some "The black Caruso," and he has been played beside McCormach, with the result that the two have been called the leading Irish and the leading Negro tenors, respectively. Through all such comparisons he has stood eminently to himself not only as an interpretative artist, but as the possessor of the emotional nature of the true artist and of a vocal culture which carries instant conviction. His loyalty to his people is shown in his words: "I feel, therefore, that I am assisting not only myself, not only the few whom I am able to encourage to a broader use of their talents, but the whole of my race." The Concerts Diplomatiques and the Star Concerts and other concert series featuring artists of the other race are attracting great numbers of both races to the Belasco Theatre. Our greatest tenor plans a similar appearance in March, as his last recital before sailing. Musical Washington will be interested in this banner event of the year—Washington's farewell to the race's premier tenor. Many who have already heard him desire to hear him in his last appearance before sailing for foreign soil, and many who have not heard him are eagerly desirous of hearing him, and of thus paying tribute to the unusual ability so manifest in him. --- Community Service The one community movement widespread over the entire city, operating in the interests of all kinds, classes, creeds and sects Community Service is not competing with any other institution, but is coordinating all existing agencies to get the highest development of the common good.

Shalet, Alonzo Tweedale and Julius I. Peyser. SIXTY OTHER CITIES HAVE DETERMINED TO KEEP COMMUNITY SERVICE. LET'S MAKE WASHINGTON THE SIXTY-FIRST. INVEST IN WASHINGTON—FEBRUA RY 9 to 16 PUBLIC MEN AND THINGS. Bro. W. H. Jernagin was lost for a text a few Sundays ago, so he took The Bee and its Editor and gave them both a hauling over the coals. Bro. Jernagin never stated anything about himself and how he lost his money during the meeting of the National Baptist Convention that met in the South some time ago. It takes the Evangelist Willbanks to relate that. Bro. Jernagin in his attack on Bro. Willbanks left a number of incidents out that would make interesting reading. By the way, he had Bro. Holloman in his pulpit after the Sage's reference to him. Bro. Holloman was at the meeting of the executive committee and I am quite certain that Bro. Holloman knows that the report of the Race Congress made him blush. Bro. Holloman will not deny that I told facts concerning the disposition of some of the funds of the Race Congress. Now, Bro. Jernagin went to Paris, but he failed to state that he found virtue in The Bee when he went to the Department of State. One paper that is on file will contradict the statement of the politician preacher from Oklahoma and Mississippi. If he would have the Sage to give a few phrases from the document on file, let us know. Of course, I would not give them without the consent of the gentleman who had a congregation of four hundred in Oklahoma. Speaking about preachers, I wonder who informed Bro. Jernagin that he could preach. There is one thing certain—that the Race Congress will not collect any more money from the people for the defense of those who put their lives in jeopardy for the people. Neval Thomas, who failed to disprove the statement of Mrs. Cheptnut before the District Committee, will be given an opportunity to explain to the president of the Board of Education. It has just come to my notice that there is a spy in the schools who is serving a master. This spy is a female, and when lightning strikes her she will find out that it would have Well, I have read with much interest the letter of Bro. Soders. Bro. Soders did not make a full report. He made good use of the money he didn't report to the Race Congress. He gave some money himself to the father and daughter who have been charged with murder. Bro. Soders worked faithfully and spent the money judiciously. The people, by his report, responded liberally. Now, if we can read a report like that of Bro. Soders and the going of the three thousand dollars that was collected, the people would feel better satisfied. We are to have a Business League. There is no reason why we should not have a first-class Colored Business League. Our good friend Daniel Freeman spent his time and money in making his business league a success, for which he got no thanks. Dan was legislated out of office without his knowledge or consent. It would have been an excellent idea to have elected Mr. Freeman president of the new Business League. Of course, I have no objections to the present president. He is an up-to-date individual and a man who no doubt can convince the colored population what it is to write in business. Of course the colored office-holders don't know whether they are Republicans or Democrats. Everything looks the same to them. Many of them say that they receive better treatment under a Democratic administration than they did under a Republican administration. Many of them have been promoted and the protests come from the holdover Republicans. When a Republican is mean, he is mean for fair. Dr. Van Schaick no doubt has the endorsement of Noval Thomas for Commissioner. It amounts to as much as a mouse walking over the back of an elephant. Nov never was certain on any question. One of these fine mornings he will wake up and imagine that he is eating corn mushs Some day the Elks will find out what a mistake they have made in electing a successor to E. W. Bundy.

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 D. 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. Yours very truly.

Office of the Colored Druggists' Association, Inc., of the District of Columbia. January 8, 1920. Mr. F. B. Ransom, Attorney and Manager, Mme. C. J. Walker Mfg. Co., Indianapolis, Ind. Dear Sir: Acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 29th ult., and in reply will state that your Mr. Evans talked with me over the telephone on the 13th of December last. As to my stating that there had been a correspondence between a white man representing himself to be the manager of your firm or connected with it and myself, certainly Mr. Evans has that much wrong. I stated to him, however, that there had been a Mr. Ward in this city with especially printed cards of the Kiefer-Stewart Company of Indianapolis, calling upon our druggists and issuing ordering slips which bore the name of that firm (Kiefer-Stewart Company) as being exclusive distributors of the Mme. C. J. Walker's toilet preparations. Further, a statement of this kind also appeared in an edition of The Washington Bee, and I called the editor's attention to same as being erroneous, and at the same time reminded him that the letter which he did publish was from you to Simmons' Pharmacy under the date of August 5, 1918. I must admit, as secretary of the local Druggists' Association, which is composed of twenty-four of the total twenty-six colored drug stores in this city, and as the authorized purchaser, that the majority of them are not satisfied to buy products, prepared by members of our race and practically sold entirely to those of our race, through a white concern. You certainly must know that it was not until a year ago that we were able to secure your goods in a businesslike manner (i.e. with a discount on deserving orders) until the 'Kiefer-Stewart Company advertised in the National Association of Retail Druggists' Journal, offering 5 per cent and 1 per cent on orders as small as $24. Prior to this time our stores were compelled to pay the flat rate direct from your house. I may also state that our druggists, who conduct retail stores in this city, do not feel that they should be censored for whatever took place at the sessions of the National Medical Convention at Philadelphia. During August 1917 and delphia, Pa., during August, 1917, and more especially when we, as an association, were not affiliated with same until at the Newark sessions in 1919, and therefore had no representative at Philadelphia. We are all here personally know to and by Dr. J. H. P. Coleman, the lady referred to in your letter to me, and it must be remembered that she is the president of the Hair-Vim Chemical Company. of this city, not conducting a retail business, therefore not a member of this organization. Besides, again calling your [Picture of a man with a bald head and a mustache, wearing a suit and a tie.] attention to your letter to Simmons Pharmacy, as above, in which you referred to People's Drug Stores of this city as the agents for your goods, the said drug stores being white cut-rate drug stores of this city, permit me to say that I am reliably informed by Dr. J. W. Morse, a member of this association, that he directly and personally requested of Mme. Walker herself, while on a visit to this city a few years ago, to consider him for the local agency, and until yet he has to hear the reply definitely. From every angle it appears that you rather that our people spend their money in some drug stores, for your goods where it would be an insult to the management thereof if that customer would also request service at the soda fountain, for instance, and I can frankly say that our stores not only allow our people to spend their money in them, but sincerely invite them, offering all accommodations to their customers and their prospective customers as may be expected of a drug store. When preparations which are more or less particularly prepared and sold for those of our race are placed in hands of white drug stores the firm responsible apparently requests our people to patronize the other man's store. If in all sincerity your firm had been race-loving and really desire to place your goods in the hands of your own people as local agents, certainly some one of the twenty-six drug stores of this city, whether a member of this organization or not, would have been considered, or, rather, requested by you, and certainly some of them would have accepted. Of course, our druggists cannot feel satisfied when they purchase a goods manufactured by some of our race and in order to secure the best price are compelled to buy the same through a white concern which evidently receives a middleman's profit. Deep down in their hearts, how on earth could they in all earnestness offer such goods to our people over those which are secured through one of our own as exclusive distributor or local agent? While some customers of our stores are constantly calling for your goods, and desiring to carry everything which they may desire in our lines, we still have your goods, but are now only buying the same in the smallest possible quantities and without displays and further advertising.

Trumping up an organization, which seeks to capitalize the political persecutions and hardships of the colored people for the purpose of getting easy political money, is nothing short of a political menace. The Bee would like to know who regards Roscoe Conklin Simmons as a race patriot? Who, in Washington, where Henry Lincoln Johnson was Recorder of Deeds, looks upon him in any other light than a politician who serves any expediency that will get him what he is after and desires? Gilchrist Stewart, training with Simmons and Johnson, in their "Lincoln League," would never be accused by anyone in New York as a race leader who has anything except the uplift of Gilchrist at heart. The fact is that Stewart has no following at all in New York. This thing of boodling in national political campaigns does the race great harm, for white Republican leaders size up the race by the standard set by the political grafters. Rich white Republicans, like Coleman Du Pont, who seek notoriety as candidates for President, pay some colored man to get out in the South and "start something." There is always someone, like Simmons, anxious to do this sort of work. When it is all over, these big men discuss among themselves "how Negroes sell out" and "how Negroes have to be bought." These colored men, who are out for themselves, setting forth "a race program" as a pretext, cannot be depended upon to fight for justice for the race. They are engineering for jobs. Race welfare will have to be protected by the great mass of colored people, the present-day thinkers, whose serious condition is not going to be made an asset by such political traffickers as Simmons, Johnson and Gilchrist Stewart and others. It is time that the people hold public meetings and appoint committees to wait upon Republican party leaders, protesting this oldtime "stuff." Set down upon it now and stop it before it gets to going.

People in this city who enter colored society should have Moens had those deluded great things. Letter is all out of joint, and it, and, again, the writer is were developed at the trial or to be a fake by the prosecutor people who continue to enjoy vagrancy. The Bee is in receipt of a letter from James F. Moten, Jr., of New York City, who attempts to defend the escapade of "Professor" Moens and condemns those who prosecuted him. The Bee declines to publish the letter of Mr. Moten, a white man, who is not known to. The Bee, because he doesn't know what he is talking about when he attempts to defend the man who, it was testified on the witness stand, had illicit relations with one of his victims. Again, the prosecution was fairer towards Moens than he (Moens) was justified in taking nude pictures of those victims who fell under his influence. The Government permitted Moens to summon any witness he wanted, and went so far as to offer its own witnesses to Moens. wanted, and went so far as to The Sun Rise Club, the writer states, gave a dinner, to which 117 guests attended, of which 18 were colored, and Mr. Waring is a member, and attended. Mr. Moens failed to inform Mr. Moten what the witnesses testified to upon the stand at the Moens trial, and The Bee denies that his arrest and trial were persecutions. So far as the indorsements alleged to be given to Moens by distinguished people, the Government showed them to be weighed in the balance and found wanting. Mr. Waring stated, so says Mr. Moten, that he could see no reason why Moens should not have been convicted. Mr. Waring is right, and had Moens been ten miles below Mason and Dixon line there would be no more of Moens. The colored people in this city who entertained Moens and introduced him in colored society should have been tried and convicted with him. Moens had those deluded individuals believing that he could do great things. Mr. Moten's letter is all out of joint, and therefore The Bee declines to publish it, and, again, the writer is not acquainted with the facts as they were developed at the trial of this alleged scientist who was declared to be a fake by the prosecution and witnesses who testified, and those people who continue to entertain Moens ought to be charged with vagrancy. VAN SCHAICK. committee that has investigated evidence before it to reject His slanderous assault uponment in itself to reject this ming such slander ought not to The Senate Committee that has investigated John Van Schaick has had sufficient evidence before it to reject his nomination for Commissioner. His slanderous assault upon the colored citizens of this city is sufficient in itself to reject this nomination. His fimsy excuse for uttering such slander ought not to have any weight with the committee. The colored people as a whole have no faith in him or respect for him. Such things as those that appeared before the tail end of the committee two weeks ago certainly did not surprise the colored people. If Neval Thomas and Wilson represented the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, then this association should not longer be supported by the colored people. Mr. Grimke, were these two authorized by your organization to appear before the Senate and indorse Van Schaick's nomination?

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced that a hearing was to be held in Washington on Thursday, January 29, on the Dyer resolution and bill, one calling for a Federal investigation of race riots and lynching, the other making lynching a crime subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Government.

The Only Race That Came to This Country Against Its Will—Dr. Madden Speaks. Dr. M. M. Madden in the last week's issue of The Bee told the reader he would tell the colored people what to ask for. It is true for the history of this country that it is made up of the vitality of other countries, every man and woman who has come to this country having come of their own free will, their own knowledge and consent. The Negro did not come that way; they are the only people that has ever been captured in their own home and country and forced to come to this country. If they had voluntarily left their homes and come here as other nations have done, it would simply have been a matter of their own choice, but to be captured in their homes and forced to come to this country in the manner that they were—is it not a fact beyond any reasonable doubt that this government is responsible to them for a home? Every man with a teaspoonful of sense would say, "Yes." The reason why you have never gotten a home is that you have never asked for it. A thing that is not worth asking for is not worth having, and as long as the Negroes of this country tolerate such characters as Rev. A. F. Avent, pastor of Wesley Chapel, Rev. C. W. Thompson and Arthur Randall, who were the authors of the publication that came out in the East St. Louis Journal on January 20, 1920, stating that Dr. M. M. Madden served a workhouse sentence for speaking colonization to the colored people of St. Louis, Mo., just that long you will find yourselves grappling with ignorance and powerless to protect yourselves. That class of Negroes is responsible for all racial trouble, and Dr. M. M. Madden said that was one reason why he did not want to speak to exclusive congregations—they are such willful liars and would tell a lie on credit before they would tell the truth for cash. It is a well-known fact that three Negro preachers of the same character and type as those above mentioned could not stand to see Dr. M. M. Madden take up a collection, so they called the officers that evening at a meeting at Allmac's Hall, where 2,000 people had gathered to hear Dr. M. M. Madden speak. The officers took Dr. Madden before the Federal authorities and the Post Office authorities. He stood the test and came out pure gold, and today Dr. Madden has a lawsuit for $55,000 damages against these worthless preachers. If those worthless Negroes had signed the article that came to Senator McCormick, that would have been another bunch who would have been sued, but they were too big cowards to sign their names. Dr. Madden said that any Negro who would have nerv enough to tell him to his face that he served a workhouse sentence would go his right there. Those Negroes know that Dr. Madden is in Washington, and his address is 605 Second street north east. Dr. M. M. Madden wrote a letter to the East, St. Louis paper and told the editor that without question he was in debt to him for an apology for publishing such an article, but since every knock is a boost, Dr. Madden let him go. If those worthless characters want to know where Dr. Madden is or what he is doing, let them subscribe fpr The HEARING IS HELD ON RACE RIOTS. Senate Sub-Committee Seeks to Determine Whether It Has Jurisdiction to Order a Full Investigation on the Subject. (The Christian Science Monitor from its Washington News Office.) A special sub-committee of the Senate Judiciary Committee held hearings yesterday to determine whether the committee had jurisdiction in the matter of ordering a full investigation of race riots and lynchings in the United States under the resolution introduced by Charles Curtis (R.). Senator from Kansas. William P. Dillingham. (R.), Senator from Vermont, presided and declared himself in full sympathy with the Negroes. Their suffering at the hands of lawless mobs was a national disgrace, he asserted, "but the only question with us is how to deal with it." Senator Curtis, in setting forth the wrongs of the Negroes and their insistence upon protection and redress at the hands of Congress, read from the reports of an investigation made by the Department of Justice, dealing largely with the alleged incitement of Negroes to rioting and disorder by organizers and speakers from the I. W. W. Need of Investigation. The propaganda of this organization extended from New York to Philadelphia and Chicago and Omaha and as far south as Louisiana. "The Negro is poor material for Socialism, but an excellent tool for the radical," it was stated. "The program is so great and the states have so neglected their duty that Congress can and should make an investigation," Senator Curtis concluded. Two Proposals Made. The Rev. J. G. Robinson, a Methodist preacher, paid tribute to Senator Dillingham and Senator Curtis, and believed he could tell them two things which they could do to help the present intolerable situation. The first was to pass legislation and leave it to the Supreme Court to decide whether they had the right to do it, and the other was to take steps to insure general suffrage in the southern states where it did not exist. He asserted that because of a letter which he wrote to the President on July 26, 1919, he had been compelled to leave his home. In this letter he had said, "Before the Negroes will again submit to many of the injustices which we have suffered, the white man will have to kill more of them than the combined soldiers that were slain in the great world war." COLORED GIRL FACES DEATH Josephine Berry, Convicted of First Degree Murder, First Woman to Be Sentenced to Death in Many Years. Josephine Berry, colored, this week was convicted by jury in criminal division of the District Supreme Court; Justice Stafford presiding; of murder in the first degree. The verdict carries with it the death penalty. The girl, is 21 years old, weighs only 70 pounds, is 4 feet 6 inches in height, and although born in Washington, is unable to read and write. She has no mother nor father and apparently no friends. If the law takes its course, she will be the first woman to be hanged in the District of Columbia since Mrs. Suratt, who was implicated in the assassination of President Lincoln. Attorneys Harry L. Tignor and Fred D. McIntosh represent the girl, and have already filed a motion for a new trial. They have already expressed a determination to take the case to the Court of Appeals in case their motion is denied. TO COMMEMORATE LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY.

Suit Filed Against Rev. W. A. Taylor, His Trustees and Deacone—Result of Charges by Acts of Misconduct—Sensational Charges Against the Pastor. A suit in equity has been filed against the pastor, Rev. W. A. Taylor, the pastor of Florida Avenue Baptist Church, by James A. Jackson and Robert L. Parter, trustees of the Florida Avenue Baptist Church; James F. Burke and James Dickerson. They allege that Wm. A. Taylor is sued in his capacity as pastor of the Florida Avenue Baptist Church. The bill states that the pastor has resorted to every artifice to bring about dissension; that he, the pastor, has outlived his usefulness as pastor of the church; that he is guilty of gross immoral conduct in the charges preferred against him by one Grace Dickerson, the wife of the plaintiff, James Dickerson, and the other defendants named in the bill who are subjected to his power and control; that he will not permit the charges to be investigated, especially those against the deacons of the church named as defendant. The bill alleges that the charges against the defendant Taylor are most revolting in their nature and character; they constitute a gross transgression of moral rectitude on the part Andrew J.

The charges referred to were filed on December 7, 1910, by the plaintiff James Dickerson and his wife, Grace Dickerson, a copy of which is herewith filed, marked Exhibit A. Said charges make mention of certain acts of immoral conduct and insults and indignities offered to and heaped upon the said Grace Dickerson; a member of the Florida Avenue Baptist Church and the wife of the plaintiff James Dickerson during a visit made by the plaintiff to the home of the defendant during the absence of the plaintiff; that the defendant Taylor would not permit the charges to be investigated and passed upon by the Florida Avenue Baptist Church, and because the plaintiff Dickerson dared to defend the good name and chastity of his wife, they were on January 16, 1920, summarily expelled from the membership of the Florida Avenue Baptist Church and removed as trustees from the church. The plaintiffs asked that the defendants be restrained and enjoined from interfering with plaintiffs, and other reliefs are asked for in the bill. The trial promises to be one of the most sensational in the history of church fights. Attorney Thomas L. Jones filed the bill for the plaintiffs. PAY UP.

Seven times a day do I praise Thee, because of Thy righteous judgments. —Ps. 115:164. Once the world's Redeemer, dying, Bare our sins upon the tree; On that sacrifice relying, Now I look in hope to Thee: Father, take me, all forgiving, Fold me to Thy loving breast; In Thy love forever living, I must be forever blest. Great peace have they that love Thy law: and nothing shall offend them.—Ps. 119: 165. Sing, O Heavens! Earth rejoice! Angel harp and human voice, Round Him, as He rises, raise Your ascending Saviour's praise. Bruised is the serpent's head: Hell is vanquished, death is dead; And to Christ, gone up on high, Captive is captivity. Lord, I have hope in Thy salvation and done Thy commandments.—Ps 119:166. All His work and warfare done, He into His heaven is gone; And, beside His Father's throne, Now is pleading for His own. Sing, O Heavens! O earth, rejoice! Angel harp and human voice, Round him in His glory raise Your ascending Saviour praise. My soul hath kept Thy testimonies and I love them exceedingly—Ps 119:167. There's a wideness in God's mercy Like the wideness of the sea. There's a kindness in His justice. Which is more than liberty.

The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul. Ps. 121:7. There is no place where earth's sorrows Are more felt than up in heaven; There is no place where earth's failings Have such kindly judgment given. There is plentiful redemption In the blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of the Head. The Lord shall preserve Thy going out and Thy coming in from this time on forth, and even forevermore.—Ps. 121:8. For the love of God is broader Than the measure of man's mind; And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. If our love were but more simple, We should take Him at His word, And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord. I was glad when they said unto me, let's go into the house of the Lord.— Ps. 121:1. My Lord, my Master, help me To walk apart with Thee Outside the camp, where only Thy beauty I may see. Far from the world's loud turmoil, Far from its busy din, Far from its praise and honor, Its unbelief and sin.

Cafe 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 quinade; 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.

The preamble of the constitution of the league sets forth: To encourage more Negroes to go into business; to help those in business to a greater success; to promote cooperative buying wherever practicable; to create a better efficiency in Negro employees; to increase Negro patronage of Negro business; to employ one or more experts to help members, and to cooperate fully with the National Negro Business League. With the broad objects set forth the organization is holding meetings at the Y. M. C. A. and the programs are fruitful. For example, at the meeting Wednesday night of this week, Mr. F. Morris Murray, a vice-president of the league, gave an illustrated talk on how to find the cost of your business. Many people conduct business blindly, not knowing how much they are making or losing, whether they are really making money or losing, and how much to charge to cover overhead costs. The discussion was very illuminating. The league is now printing a directory of Negro business so far as represented in the membership of the league and will distribute this directory in the form of a calendar. All colored persons actually engaged in some commercial enterprise should make application to headquarters at the Y. M. C. A. for membership. FEDERATION OF TEACHERS. The American Federation of Teachers, at its annual meeting held in Chicago, Ill., December 30, 1919, to January 2, 1920, adopted the following resolutions: Whereas, the trustees of Howard University of Washington, D. C., have asked the Congress of the United States to appropriate for the institution, instead of the $101,000 customary in recent years, the sum of $1,580,000, to enable the university to carry on a constructive educational program of vast importance to the colored people of America, the items of which have been submitted through the Secretary of the Interior; and Whereas, the Howard University Teachers' Union has requested the support of the American Federation of Teachers in presenting this matter to members of Congress; be it therefore Resolved. That the American Federation of Teachers, in convention assembled, express its approval of the proposed appropriation of $1,580,000 for the extension of the work of Howard University as submitted through the Secretary of the Interior, and urge its locals to bring this action to the attention of Senators and Representatives in their various districts.
