(Special to The Christian Science Monitor from its Western News Office.)

He Proposes to Fight and Will Tell the Senate Investigating Committee Why They Want His Place-Van Schaick on the Rack. VOL. XL. NO. 40 The Washington Bee mission on race relations appointed by Governor Frank O. Lowden, spoke at a round table discussion of the race problem in Chicago at the City Club of Chicago yesterday. "In reality, there is no race problem at present," said Dr. Hall. "Every time something happens to a Negro, or a Negro does something out of the way, it is spoken of as 'the race problem.' The 'jim-crow' car is not a problem, it is an insult, both to the Negro and to the intelligence of the white people who permit it. Lynching is not a problem, it is murder. Segregation is not a problem, it is an insult. Bombs thrown at Negroes' homes are not problems, they are crimes. These crimes are not problems, but anarchy. None of these things are problems until someone tries to get around them and excuse them instead of meeting them face to face for what they are. "I have great hopes that good-will will be established between the races in Chicago. But right now there exists in Chicago a situation which makes these hopes very doubtful for the present. "The condition in Chicago today is wrought up to where we are standing over a riot, not of thugs' such as the riot here last summer, but a real race riot. The fact is, that the Negroes in the so-called 'black belt' are quietly arming themselves individually and establishing a zone of safety for themselves, as they have no confidence in the police of Chicago to protect them. Every now and then some Negro's house is bombed or the home of some white man who has sold a house to a Negro is bombed." "Negroes are not all perfect, any more than all whites are perfect. There are criminals among the Negroes, and there are upright citizens among the Negroes. We citizens who are not criminals do not want to be herded into one crowded district with these criminals. We object to placing all Negroes on the same plane, just as all whites would object to being placed upon the same plane." Judge E. O. Brown, a member of the Commission, who presided at the discussion, said that somebody knows 1910 the Senate Investigating Committee -Van Schaick on the Rack. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, MARCH 6, 1920 who has been throwing the bombs in Chicago, and that it is time the proper authorities found out who they were and brought them to justice. Francis W. Shepherdson, acting chairman of the commission on race relations, declared that there were forces of some kind in Chicago that were working against the efforts of the Commission to find a solution of the problem. DR. M. M. MADDEN. Danville, Virginia, Gives Him an Ovation. The people of Danville, Va., were given one of the greatest surprises of their life, when, on Thursday evening, February 26th, Dr. M. M. Madden; of St. Louis, Mo., spoke to a congregation of people at Loyal Street Baptist Church. Everyone enjoyed his speaking very much, indeed, and were much enthused with him, and we hope that a larger crowd will come out to hear him on his return trip in May. Dr. M. M. Madden is the greatest orator the world has ever known among black or white. When he explains a thing to you, even a dummy could see it with the naked eye. We, the Negro race, should be very proud of such a man as he. SOUTHERN AID. During the epidemic of "flu" in October and November, 1918, the society paid every claim for sickness, accidents and death the day the same was due; all death claims were checked, entered and put in the mails within three hours from the time they were received at the home office. Sick and accident claims are paid by superintendents and agents at their local districts, under the instruction from the home office, who are ordered to pay every claim the day it becomes due. The Southern Aid Society of Virginia has again established a great record, in having paid more claims in the month of February, 1920, than in any previous month in the history of the company. It is the desire of the company that every claim be paid the day it is due, and every superintendent and agent has instructions from the home office to that effect. DUNBAR HIGH SCHOOL. Use as a Dance Hall and Movie Theatre a Violation of Law—Who Is Responsible? The Dunbar High School auditorium, and armory have been turned into a dance hall and a movie theatre, known as the People's Theatre. The Bee, as well as the taxpayers, would like to be informed when a schoolhouse was permitted to be used as a dance hall and a movie theatre? The attention of the District Commissioners is respectfully called to this gross violation of law on the part of someone. Every week some kind of a public dance is given at the high school, for which an admission fee is charged. In all of the movie and other theatres and newspapers may be seen advertisements of some public dance or a movie show, for which an admission is charged. If there ever was a gross violation of law, it is being enacted by someone at this school. What right has a public dance or a movie picture to be advertised to take place in this building for a paid admission? Where does the money go? Who authorized the Dunbar High School to be turned into a movie theatre? This is one of the items Congress is asked to investigate at this session. THE HOWARD THEATRE. Andrew J. Thomas and His Assistant Preparing for Great Improvements at the Popular Playhouse. There is no theatrical manager in the city who has done more to please the people than Mr. Andrew J. Thomas and his assistant, Lieut. Vin- cent Thomas. The Thomas brothers are continually doing something to satisfy the people. The theatre is now undergoing repairs and in a few weeks the improvements will be of such a character as will please the people. The new curtain that has been installed is only one of the many new features that will command the admiration of theatre goers. There is no man who has done more to please all classes of people and organizations than Mr. Thomas, and to consider the meager returns he receives from them. The ministers always have their mit out, and when you call on them to do something substantial for the theatre, they always have some flimsy excuse. Mr. Thomas has never failed to respond to all and every charitable enterprise. Very often he is imposed upon by fakirs who come to the city under the pretext of being princes from the South. Dr. Wm. H. Howard, who came near being bit by one of them, managed to pull his finger away in time. Mr. Thomas is one race man. He practices what he preaches. In speaking of the coming improvements in the Howard Theatre, Mr. Thomas and his assistant should be encouraged. The assistant, Vincent, and his right-hand man, Mr. Frank Sylvester, who never gets excited, no matter how large the crowd is and how fast the rush is at the window, are both proficient. Girls call and with a sweet smile, that would entice Doc to accommodate their smiling demands, but they all look alike to him, and their smiles have no effect on him—no more than a bum picture does, which makes Doc remain at his post to treat all smiling damsels alike. It has been a question whether Doc is human or whether he has not met with some disappointment in life, to allow the smiles of these variegated damsels to pass unnoticed. He is right on the job—always. The Howard management will instal many new features, as the patrons of this theatre will see. The People Are Clamoring for a Report. There is no report as yet from the National Race Congress of the riot fund. A representative of The Bee was approached a few days ago and informed by a member of Mt. Carmel Baptist Church that there is some dissension in the church, and if the Rev. Jernagin does not make a report of the riot fund he proposes to leave the church. Some time ago the pastor threatened to remove a member if he did not divulge the source of certain information—that either this member must resign or he would leave the church. Bro. Jernagin called a church meeting and the objectionable member was sustained, two to one—in fact the vote for retention was almost unanimous. Bro. Jernagin didn't resign, and neither was the objectionable member removed from Mt. Carmel. The report on the riot fund is asked for. DR. ALEXANDER WILLBANKS STILL IMPROVING. Dr. Alexander Willbanks, the world's evangelist, is still improving. Dr. P. W. Price, his physician, feels that if he continues to improve, that he will be allowed to attend one service at his church on Sunday, but will not be allowed to preach for several weeks. A thirty-day revival is now in progress at the Tenth Street Baptist Church, of which he is pastor, and is being conducted by Sister Isabella Bundy, the great woman evangelist, who led 500 people to God in the meeting conducted by her at the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church. Each evening preaching at 8 o'clock; prayer meeting at 7:30. This meeting has been arranged by Dr. Willbanks on his sick bed, and who is under many obligations to God' and the many thousands of friends all over the country, who are still praying for his complete recovery. All are cordially invited to attend the services at the Tenth Street Baptist Church. HELP HIM. Will You Help to Put a Colored Member on the Lunch Room Committee of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing? Charles A. Marshall, of the Assistant Director's Office and chairman of the board of directors of the Bureau Relief Association, will be the only colored person whose name will appear on the ballot, which will be given to every employee on March 18, 1920; and you are kindly requested to put the mark (X) beside his name, and please do not vote for anyone else. If you do the fight will be lost. JUDGE TERRELL IN PITTSBURGH AND HARRISBURG. On February 19th, Judge Robert H. Terrell spoke in the Technical High School at Harrisburg, Pa., in behalf of the effort to build a home for aged colored men and women. On February 27th he addressed the citizens of Pittsburgh in the Schenley High School auditorium, under the auspices of the National Women's Industrial Union of America. At Harrisburg, Judge Terrell's subject was "The Negro Soldier in the Wars of America," and at Pittsburgh he spoke on "The Negro Today." CAPTAIN ROBERT DOYLE. A Man of the People—If There Was a Vote Today, Capt. Doyle Would Win—A Graduate of Law and a Native Washingtonian. Captain Robert Emmet Doyle is the popular idol of the people as the logical successor of the late Major Pullman. He is an American citizen who has made a record of which the people are proud. He is the most popular man on the force today and has the respect and confidence of the entire force. He was born in Washington 49 years ago, February 24, and he has lived all his life in Washington. He is the son of the late Michael Doyle, who was shot, and killed while in the discharge of his duties in South Washington in 1871. Captain Doyle was but nine months old at the time, and after four years of schooling was compelled to leave school on account of force of circumstances, and at 11 years of age started to work to help support a widowed mother and two sisters, both of whom became public-school teachers. He was appointed station keeper at No. 9 precinct, June 9, 1891; promoted to sergeant July 1, 1901; promoted to lieutenant March 26, 1906, and promoted to captain July 1, 1906. During his connection with the Police Department he has improved himself by attending night schools for several years, and finally graduated from the Spencerian Business College and from the National Law School of this city, where the degrees of LL.B. and LL.M. were conferred upon him. He has a wife and three children, all of whom are interested in his welfare, and a promotion to him is more than sentiment alone. You are well aware of the many important assignments given to him, all of which he has handled with credit to the department and himself. He is one of two of the oldest captains in point of service; and beyond all question has the qualifications to fill the position of superintendent of police of the District. During the late race riot, when the city was about to collapse, Captain Doyle could go anywhere the rioters held sway, and his command would be respected. The Masonic Order is sublime. The principles are grand. Brethren should disagree in order to agree. ATTY. FOUNTAIN PEYTON.

Burroughs was the pulpit orator at the educational day exercises held in Abyssinian Baptist Church, Dr. A. Clayton Powell, pastor, on West Fortieth street, at 11 a. m. today. The large church was filled to overflowing. The program consisted of special selections by the choir, interspersed with vocal solos. The pulpit oration of Miss Burroughs was on "The Least, the Last and the Lost," and was delivered in the characteristic force of the speaker, who was at her best. An informal reception was tendered Miss Bourroughs around the pulpit immediately after the services. A liberal collection was taken up. DEATH KNOWS NO COLOR. A few evenings ago Dr. Charles Fisher, of 1905 Fourteenth street, received a telephone call asking that he come at once to a certain address on Sixteenth street to attend a very sick woman. Dr. Fisher responded promptly to the call, and upon reaching the bedside of the patient, who was suffering very severe pains from an acute stomach disorder, was asked by the woman's husband if he was colored. Upon replying in the affirmative, the young physician was told by the husband that his services would not be needed, but the ill woman pleaded with her husband to allow the colored physician to attend her. The narrow-minded husband reluctantly consented and as a result his wife is again well. Strange, how the color line fades when death is near! Dr. Fisher is a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh and Howard University, and recently finished his internship at Freedman's Hospital. Use DR.

Editor of The Bee: I noticed in a Baltimore paper of February 1 the "reasons" given for paying colored teachers of Maryland lower salaries than are paid to white teachers. The reasons given show clearly that the reasoner does not have the viewpoint of those who criticize that discrimination. The faultiness of such "reasoning" appears on its face, for what, then, becomes of the large number of colored teachers who are prepared to meet the standard? Not even the worst enemy has pretended that there are no colored teachers prepared. There are, and there ought to be, a larger proportion of well-prepared white teachers than of well-prepared colored teachers. But how does that make it necessary to pay all colored teachers according to the lowest standard? The just and rational thing would be to put the competent and well-prepared teachers of both races into one group and the incompetent and ill-prepared teachers of both races into another group, and then pay the better group the better salaries, regardless of their color. Under such grouping or merit, there would be a greater proportion of white teachers on the better salaries. There is no just way on earth to make mere color the condition of preferment. And this is not "racial equality." This is common sense and honesty. An individual has the right to equal pay for individual work with other individuals. There is another phase to this discrimination in salaries: It promotes the very thing which it alleges as its justification. Underpay always, all over the world, among all peoples, gradually lowers the grade of the work or service rendered. It is like pushing a fellow into a hole and then penalizing him for being in the hole. The lower pay of colored teachers tends to promote and perpetuate their lower attainment, for the following reasons: 1. They can less afford to attend summer schools on lower salaries. 2. They must engage in "side issues" to earn money to live on. 3. The better educated colored people will stay out of the teaching profession for better pay in other work. There are colored people doing housework for rich white people, who are better prepared to teach school than some of those who are teaching. If discrimination is made at all, it should be in the other direction; if the Negro teacher is behind, he needs more help; not less. We should give a "square deal" to the colored teacher who is prepared, both to induce others to prepare, and to induce prepared people to enter the profession. There is no good reason for discriminating against such a teacher. This is merely an historical prejudice, somewhat like that against women. But when we make up our minds to do a wrong thing, almost any reasoning will do. In fact, one reason for doing wrong is just as good as any other. William Pickens, 1012 Arlington Avenue, Baltimore, Md. Senator Smoot Denies He Stopped Meeting at Dunbar. (From the Philadelphia American.) February 17, 1920. Mr. Arthur Lynch, Editor, The Philadelphia American, Philadelphia, Pa. My Dear Sir—Someone sent me a copy of the Philadelphia American of February 7, 1920, in which appears an editorial headed "Senator Smoot of Utah." I have just dictated a letter to Mr. Benjamin A. Arnold, of 3617 Warren street, Philadelphia, Pa., in answer to a letter I received from him, which he wrote, no doubt, after reading your editorial. I enclose you a copy of that letter, as well as copies of the Congressional Record of January 8 and 12, 1920, containing my remarks protesting against the Howard University having in its library the book of Albert Rhys Williams, entitled "Seventy-six Questions and Answers on the Bolsheviki and Soviets." I wish to say to you that there is not a word of truth in your editorial: In the first place, I knew nothing about the meeting at the Dunbar High School, and made no protest against the meeting being held there, nor did I prefer charges against Mr. Neval Thomas, as stated in your editorial. I have never met Mr. Neval Thomas in my life. I never heard of him until this lie was told about my protesting against the use of the Dunbar High School. book being placed in the library of that institution. Other than that, I have taken no action whatever against Thomas or the editors of The Messenger or any other colored man. I have voted against jim-crowism, segregation and disfranchisement ever since I have been in the Senate. Itly becomes a colored editor to write an article against a friend of his people based upon absolute falsehood. What think you of such a proceeding? Yours respectfully, The letter to Mr. Arnold follows: My Dear Sir—I am in receipt of your letter of February 3, 1920, in which you state that you deeply regret that I am taking an unfriendly attitude towards your race; that you have become accustomed to attacks from the reactionary Southern Democrats, but you have always regarded me as the colored man's friend. I received a clipping from the Philadelphia American, sent to me by someone, containing an editorial which is filled full of falsehood. I have always been a staunch friend of the colored people, and suppose I have taken more abuse, outside of Mr. Roosevelt, than most any man in the United States for having dared to ask colored people to a banquet that I gave to our Legislature and the leading citizens of our State following my election to the Senate of the United States Senate. Ask any colored man around the Capitol who is their best friend. It is because I was friendly to the colored race that, when my attention was called to the fact that Albert Rhys Williams' book, entitled "Seventy-six Questions and Answers. on the Bolshevik and Soviets," was in the Howard University, I took occasion to have that book eliminated from the library of that institution. The information was conveyed to me by colored people, and I was requested to do just as I did. I send you a copy of the Record of January 8, 1920, and call your attention to page 1256, and also the Record of January 12, 1920, page 1438, covering this subject matter. It is always much better that a friend correct the mistake of a friend than to have it presented by an enemy. I have had a delegation of the students from Howard University call on me and thank me in person for what I did for the institution. The statement that the Dunbar High School was closed to Messrs. Owen and Randolph, at which meeting Prof. Neval H. Thomas was to preside, and that I had preferred charges against Mr. Thomas because he declared his intention of going with the editors of John Wesley Church to speak and to conduct the meeting, is absolute falsehood. I made no protest against them holding the meeting at the Dunbar High School, for I knew nothing of it until I saw some account of it later in the press. I have never met Professor Thomas in my life that I am aware of. I have never heard a word from Professor Thomas. I am not aware whether he presided at a meeting or not, nor do I care. I do know that if Congress is to appropriate money to support the Howard University, the Howard University cannot have in its library literature such as the book referred to above by Prof. Albert Rhyll Williams. Yours truly. REED SMOOT. Editor's Note.—The news item referred to as it came from our Washington correspondent was published in good faith. Our friends in public life are all too few, and so we gladly make this correction in justice to Senator Smoot. SURGICAL CHIROPODIST Special Treatment For Corns and Bunions.

A call has been issued by Aaron Bradshaw, chairman of the original Republican Central Committee, which has been in existence since the foundation of the Republican party. This is not a hand-picked committee, but an elective committee, which expresses the will of the Republicans in this city and which represents ten thousand Republican voters in the city of Washington. The call is for the election of a new committee, which is its custom and always has been. The Republican voters are requested to assemble in their respective districts March 12 and elect their delegates and their alternates, who are requested to assemble in Grand Army Hall and elect two delegates and alternates to the National Republican Convention, which is to assemble in the city of Chicago, State of Illinois. Mr. Bradshaw is the actual chairman of the District of Columbia Republican Central Committee, elected by Republican votes and not hand-picked; and the admission of the delegates elected under the call of this committee will be put up to the National Republican Convention—whether a handful of star-chamber Republicans will be permitted to assemble in a club room where Republicans are not welcomed and pick two men who do not represent the Republican party in this city, who have no constituency behind them. The men who affiliate with the original Republican Committee, have been identified with the Republican party actively from the time the memory of man "runneth not to the contrary." Let all Republicans rally to the call of Bradshaw. THE LINCOLN LEAGUE.

The Bee takes this opportunity to inform the National Chairman, Will Hays, that somebody has misled him into believing that Southern voteless colored Republicans have a following and influence among Northern colored Republican voters. The Northern colored Republicans will resent the Chairman's selection and teach him to understand that men like Roscoe Conklin Simmons do not represent the real voters in the North. Colored Republicans in the North have been ignored long enough and the time has come to let the party managers know that men are needed in the next contest and not political nonentities. The president of the Lincoln League, who, has been deprived of his civil and political rights in the South, shows bad taste in coming North to instruct real voters how to exercise the elective franchise. The Northern colored voters will not be dictated to or be advised by Southern political nonentities. The North rebels. Captain Doyle or Captain Williams would make a splendid successor to Major Pullman. They are experienced, honest, honorable and capable. They would give new life to the force and we would have a "square deal" administration. Lost, strayed or stolen, one small-sized local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. Last seen at Fifteenth and R. streets, Washington, D. C. Fakirs are able to escape detection. SPECIAL NOTICE Aaron Bradshaw, Chairman. Joseph E.

In Payment of Sick Claims in February 1920, Amounting to $29,637.72 During the epidemic of "flu" in October and November, 1918, the Society paid every claim for sickness, accidents and death the day the same was due. All death claims were checked, entered and put in the mails within three hours from the time they were received at the Home Office. Sick and accident claims are paid by superintendents and agents at their local districts, under the instruction from the Home Office to pay every claim the day it becomes due. Our representatives have again established a greater record for the Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., in having paid more claims in the month of February, 1920, than in any previous month in the history of the Company. It is our desire that every claim be paid the day it is due, and every superintendent and gent has instructions from the Home Office to that effect. The claims paid in October and November, 1918, and February 1920, are shown for comparison. The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, Inc., is in a financial position to pay its claims the day they are due during epidemics as under normal conditions.

Saturday—I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people that have set themselves against me round about. Ps. 3:6, Angelic spirits, countless souls, Of Thee have drunk their fill; And to eternity will drink O little heart of mine, shall pain Thy joy and glory still. Or sorrow make thee moan, When all this God is all for thee, A Father all thine own? Sunday—Arise, O'Lord; save me, O my God; for Thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the checkbone; Thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. Ps. 3:7. As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold, As with joy they hailed its light, Leading onward, beaming bright, So, most gracious Lord, may we Evermore be led to Thee. Monday—Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing; the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man. Ps. 5:6. As with joyful steps they sped, Saviour, to Thy manger bed, Thee to bend the knee before, Thee whom heaven and earth adore; So may we with willing feet Ever seek the mercy seat. Sick and Accident Claims Paid. Death Claims Paid.

Ps. 5:7. As they offered gifts, most rare At Thy cradle rude and bare, So may we, with holy joy, Pure and free from sin's alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to Thee, our Heavenly King. Wednesday—The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein. For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. Ps. 24:1, 2. Holy Jesus, every day Keep us in the narrow way; And, when earthly things are past, Bring our ransomed souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide. WE TIP OUR HAT. We tip our hat to "Scissors and Paste" of the Washington (D. C.) Bee. He rationalized a quotation from The Meddler so as to make it a decided improvement over the original. Not many of us can do that often.-The Meddler. JUDGES SHOULD ACT. There is no reason why the judges of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia should not request the resignation of Dr. Van Schaick, as he was not a citizen of the District of Columbia at the time he was appointed on the School Board. "THIS AND THAT" The Musical Comedy de Luxe Playing at the Howard Theatre. Variety is the spice of life, hence after four weeks of drama, the Howard Theatre is offering to its patrons another week of the musical show, "This and That," which was written written to amuse. Alex. Rogers is responsible for the book and lyrics, and C. Luckeyth Roberts has composed the music. There are twenty-four numbers in the piece, each and every one a hit, for the reason that they are up-to-date, full of lively rythm and tuneful melody. The humor throughout is exhilarating, which keeps the audience in one continuous uproar of laughter, yet the author tells a fascinating plot to keep the spectator interested as to what will happen next. The management has gone into an enormous outlay for the scenery and costumes of this musical cocktail. There are eleven scenes, through which the principals are rushed with kaledioscopic rapidity, taking them from New York en route to Somoli Land and back again. The costumes, some two hundred in number, were made and designed by the Ziegfeld Costume Studio and correctly fit into the various scenes and climes. They are rich in color and daring in desi gn.In a few words, a glittering, dazzling panoramic display of feminine attire, that will create a sensation and rank in beauty with any of the Broadway attractions.

America took Cuba from the Spaniards and gave it to the Cubans. The winter season, which is now winding up, has been very profitable. Tourists rfom America flocked there, because the islanders had common sense enough to keep their country "wet." American hotel and restaurant men are now face to face with a great problem, since the saloons have been closed. The people were patient for a while, but for the present the restaurants have tried hard to push all of the near-beers and practically kickless substitutes for everything that was in their cellars. Now the public has grown tired of these substitutes and the party, with the candidate on a "wet" platform will be the favorite, regardless of past party affiliations, in the coming election, regardless of Billy Sunday's recent speech at Liberty Hut. When a reduction of pay was announced to the waiters of Mead's Hotel, at Third and Pennsylvania avenue northwest, by the new management last week, the colored waiters walked out. J. W.

Warns the Public Against Fakirs and Frauds. Editor of the Bee: I have been informed that certain persons are circulating a petition in my favor, asking that executive clemency be extended to me. I have also been informed that these persons are also askin gfor contributions in support of this petition. I am thankful for the great interest shown by the community in my case, but I respectfully notify the public through your columns that these contributions are being requested and accepted without my consent or approval. Attorneys Harry L. Tignor and Fred D. McIntosh represent me in this matter and have noted an appeal. The court has not yet acted upon the case. If the Court of Appeals should sustain the lower court, then I will appeal to the community for sympathy and ask for executive clemency. The entire matter is in the hands of my attorneys, and I would be grateful to anyone desiring to assist me if they would consult them. Very respectfully, Josephine Berry. Feb. 25, 1920. QUALITY AMUSEMENT CO. The Actors Rebelled and Refused to Play an Inferior Race Production. A representative of The Bee was informed by Manager Pankey that Manager Brown knew nothing about the inferior race play that the company was booked to play at the Howard, in which Mrs. Charles Anderson would play, as well as the other members of the company. The players refused. Miss Bowman was outspoken and declared that she would not take part. Miss Abbie Mitchell, a favorite in this country, declared that she would not take part in the play. William Babe Townsend, another Washington favorite, also kicked. Now, if Mr. Brown did not know that such a play was going to be presented, who is responsible? If Manager Brown has been imposed upon, The Bee would suggest that he appoint a colored producer and eliminate his white producer. Is the Quality Amusement Company really under colored management, or still under the management of Mr. Levy? Mr. John S. Quander, of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, is out on his leave.

It was someone to inform me that Bros. Jernagin and Secretary Hawkins had decided to give an itemized statement of the riot fund. Just then Bro. John W. Lewis of the Industrial Savings Bank raised up his bank window, called to Rev. Norman, who had been one of the most liberal contributors to the riot fund, and called to Jesse Foster, telling him that he should secure at once the itemized report of the riot fund. Jesse is very skeptical, and cried out at the top of his voice that the riot fund continues to sleep where the woodcock rests in peace. I wonder why this great (?) race organization has the race so much at heart, for what it can get out of it, "doesn't give the people a report? If there ever was a political farce, it is that Lincoln League. Why, just the other day Charles W. Anderson was elected alternate delegate to the Chicago Convention from the great State of New York. Charles Anderson stands for something, while the so-called Lincoln League is a good puff of wind, and you know what that stands for, with nothing else behind it. The Lincoln League is a Leap Year organization. It will make its appearance every four years. There is not an organization in this city that would follow the leadership of Simmons and Church. Both are jokers in this section of the country, and Mr. Will Hays will be convinced of this fact before the conclusion of the campaign. I understand that a convention of the race political factors in the voting States will call a convention in Chicago in a few days and convince the National Chairman that he has selected political parasites, and the real colored voters in the Northern States will express their opinion. Chairman Hays was told that Simmons had the Booker T. Washington influence and following. If some one will just tell me how much influence the late Booker T. Washington had among his people, The Bee will suggest Roscoe Simmons for a seat in the next company. My good friend Andrew J. Thomas has just returned from New York, where he has been enjoying a quiet vacation. He is one man that takes care as pleasantly as a Canadian dove, last week he had a delightful time, from all reports. No one has been able thus far to tie a Cupid's knot around his neck. Some day he will be burned hard and fast with an arrow pierced through his heart. Young Cupid is waiting for an opportunity, and Father Time never gets tired of waiting. Jim Cobb or Whitfield McKinley will go as the hand-picked delegates to Chicago from the hand-picked Central Committee. The hand-picked national committeeman will find out before it is too late that he has bitten off more than he can chew. There are to be ten thousand votes cast in the twenty-two districts for delegates to the Republican Convention called by Chairman Bradshaw. **** I would like to know who gave authority to open the Dunbar High School as a people's theatre? What are the rights of the people? Why should a school be turned into a theatre? I don't think the Commission-of the District of Columbia gave anybody such authority. HOWARD • QUINTET DEFEATS HAMPTON. By Charles H. Williams, Hampton, Va., Feb. 28.—The annual Washington's Birthday game, played by Howard and Hampton, on Hampton's court, was won by Howard by a score of 35 to 24. The passing and shooting of the Howard team were good, but they especially excelled in the latter, rarely ever missing setups. All the Howard players showed marked ability to cage the ball. The Howard team early secured the lead and kept it throughout. Their height gave them some advantages over the Hampton aggregation. A fine spirit prevailed throughout the entire game, although at times there was rough playing. The playing of Richardson and Tibbs for Howard and that of McLaren and Freeman for Hampton were the features of the game. The line-up was as follows: Hampton—McLaren and Freeman; forwards; Bradby, center; Wright and Jones, guards; substitutions: Owl, Saunders, Jeter and Paxton. Howard—Tibbs and Richardson; forwards; Garner, center; Marshall and Wright, guards; substitution: Carter. Referee, Louis Northrup; timekeeper, W. R. Brown; scorer, E. P. Lov- ett.

The Bethel Literary and Historical Association each year invites the officers, teachers, students and alumni of Howard University to celebrate "Howard University Night" as a regular program feature. The meeting for this year was held Tuesday, February 24, 1920, in the presence of an inspiring and representative audience of Washington people, who gathered to listen to a discussion of the general subject, "Howard University and the New Day." The University Glee Club and Orchestra, under the direction of Prof. Roy W. Tibbs, rendered musical numbers, which were warmly received while addresses were made by Mr. Wm. S. Nelson, Class 1920, who spoke on the subject, "The Howard University Sutdent Body," and Dean D. Butler Pratt, representing the School of Religion. The School of Medicine and the School of Law were represented by two graduates of wide experience and fame in their professions, namely, Dr. E. D. Williston, Washington, D. C., Class 1894, representing the School of Medicine, and W. Ashbie Hawkins, Esq., Baltimore, Md., Class 1892, representing the School of Law. President J. Stanley Durkee spoke upon the general subject, "The University's New Program," and set forth in full detail the great work which the university is undertaking. He not only referred to the warm cooperation of officers, teachers and students in the matter of a unified university, but of the outlook for large appropriations from Congress and from the Interchurch World Movement which will permit the university to realize the ideals of its founders. All of the addresses were warmly received and contributed greatly, with the musical numbers, to the success of an enjoyable evening. The Dunbar High School and the Armstrong Manual Training School will also render an educational program under the auspices of the Bethel Literary and Historical Association at its next meeting. LEONARD WOOD IS A MAN FOR ALL THE PEOPLE. We are living today in a restless age. There exists a dissatisfaction and unrest among the people of the world, a general outcome of the great war. The reconstruction period is presenting many problems that must be solved by the various nations of the world. In the United States we are confronted by many perplexing problems. It is going to take the best brain and sinew to cope with the situation and adjust matters satisfactorily. Whatever adjustments are made must be progressive. In other words, the nation must have for the coming presidential period a man who is progressive in action as well as in word to guide its destinies, and a man who will guide the national policies in the spirit of this new era, and not according to pre-war standards. He must be a man of abroad and varied experience in order to handle the various classes and nationalities that contribute to the citizenship of our great nation. This man must be one who will deal fairly and squarely with everyone, who has but one standard of right and wrong for all. The country must have a man who is going to deal justly with its citizens, whether of capitalist or labor class, rich or poor, and regardless of their nationality, race or creed. He must be a man who believes in liberty and justice for all, who believes in the "all-men up and no man down" policy, and, finally, a man who will not parley in the face of big issues. Such a man is, General Leonard Wood, who was named in South Dakota as a presidential candidate for nomination when the Natoional Republican Convention meets in Chicago this June. While General Wood was endorsed at the Republican Convention in South Dakota, it was not a local affair, and that he is not a favorite son or a selection made for local reasons is clearly seen in the practical character that the movement on the behalf of his nomination has assumed throughout the country. Leonard Wood is a New England product. He was born in New Hampshire, October 9, 1860, and while yet an infant his family moved to Massachusetts, where he was educated. He graduated from the Harvard Medical School in 1884, and began his practice in Boston. Tiring of the life of ordinary practitioner, he went into the army and was soon appointed assistant surgeon and first lieutenant. He made such wonderful strides that in five years he became a captain and full surgeon. His first record was made as an Indian fighter under Capt. Henry W. Lawton, later brigadier-general. Reporting to General Miles, Lawton said of Wood, "He sought the most difficult work and by his de- termination and courage rendered a successful issue of the campaign possible." In 1895 Wood was ordered to Washington as assistant attending surgeon, which gave him an opportunity to become acquainted with President McKinley and also with Theodore Roosevelt, who was Assistant Secretary of the Navy at the time. Roosevelt and Wood became congenial companions and fast friends, for both had many tastes and characteristics in common. These two were the organizers of the "Rough Riders," which was officially designated as the First Volunteer Cavalry of the Spanish-American War. Roosevelt insisted that Leonard Wood should be the colonel of this cavalry regiment. Wood was, in a short time, appointed brigadier-general, and Roosevelt was advanced from second place to the colonelcy of his "Rough Riders." Wood succeeded General Wheeler as commander of the cavalry brigade in the Santiago campaign, and was made military governor of the city and district after the surrender of the Spaniards. This afforded Wood an opportunity to show his wonderful administrative ability. Colonel Roosevelt wrote in the Outlook of January 7, 1899: "I was frequently in Santiago after the surrender, and I never saw Wood when he was not engaged in some one of his multitudinous duties. He was personally supeintending the clearing of the streets; he was personally hearing the most important of the countless complaints made by the Cubans against the Spaniards, spanards against the Cubans, and by both against Americans; he was personally engaged in working out a better system of sewerage, or in striving to secure the return of the land-tillers to the soil. I do not mean that he ever allowed himself to be swamped by mere detail; he is much too good an executive officer not to delegate to others whatever can safely be delegated; but the extraordinary energy of the man himself is such that he can oversee and direct much more than is possible, with the ordinary man." (This comes from a man who was a genius in executive ability himself.) Following his remarkable success in Santiago he was appointed governor general of Cuba. He successfully organized the governing forces and administered in such a way that if was not long before the island was turned over to the Cubans for self-government. Under the Roosevelt administration General Wood was sent to the Philippines as military commander and civil governor. In dealing with the Moros and Mahometans, and in instituting a local government preparatory for self-government, he again showed his executive and administrative ability. In the world war, though denied the privilege of serving in France, he organized and trained two divisions for service. Leonard Wood's qualifications for the high office of President of this Nation may be summarized as follows: 1. He was a disciple and friend of DR. W. L. SMITH'S INDIGES TION CURE. This remedy will relieve and cure all forms of indigestion, catarrh of the stomach, heartburn, flatulency, sour stomach, water brash, acid fermentation, pain in the stomach, gaseous accumulations and malassimilation. When taken into the stomach it thoroughly digests the albuminous food and cures the indigestion by resting and assisting the stomach until natural digestion is restored. Every bottle guaranteed.

W.; Hailstalk. our greatest statesman since Lincoln's time. 2. He administered to the colonies according to their needs. We need a man who will govern us according to our present needs, and he is such a man. 3. He has had experience at home and abroad in handling men who had to be governed. He knows how to meet men in all walks of life. In other words, he knows how to govern fruitfully. 4. His vast experience has taught him how to deal justly with men in every walk of life. 5. Being a disciple of the immortal Roosevelt, he believes in the principle "All men up and no man down." 6. His successful and fearless campaigns in the colonies proves he is not a man to parley with an issue. Had he shown the least weakness in his government of the colonies much would have been lost to the country and he would not have been able to receive the hearty support he is receiving throughout the nation. 7. Because of his fearlessness for right, he was obscured for a time. There is too much real man in him to be a cat's-paw. He is a man of firm and decisive policies, and not easily swayed by the winds. Such a man the nation needs. Thus Leonard Wood fulfills the need of the people and of the nation, and becomes a man for the nation and a man for all the people. THE TWENTIETH CENTURY LAUNDRY & CLEANING CO. Presents to the Citizens of Washington the Realization of a Dream of Fifty Years—A First-Class Steam Laundry and Wholesale Cleaning Business Operated by Negro Capital and Labor. The proposition is to organize a steam laundry capitalized at $50,000, divided into 5,000 shares at $10 each, payable at the rate of $12.50 per share, the $2.50 being for expenses and surplus. With a population of about 450,000, a third of same being colored, there is no reason why this should not prove a gilt-edged investment. This business will be one of the first to come into direct competition with several large laundries operating exclusively with colored labor. It will practically command the work of ten thousand colored householders and expects one-tenth of the turnover work from other laundries; thus the average work from colored people being about 50 cents per week, a net income of $150,000 per year can be counted on from that source, which, with the turnover from the other laundries, amounting to something like $75,000 per year, this business bids fair to pay from its beginning, as it has been estimated that not more than $30,000 will be required to run the business the first year. Another fact that should make this an attractive business is that the best laundry workers in the city are colored. This concern promises to employ the best colored help obtainable by paying the highest wages and salaries. Not less than thirty young people will be employed the first year. The president; Mr. Charles L. Foster, a former instructor in machinery in one of our best industrial schools, has made a splendid success of the cleaning and pressing business, and has, therefore, provided for a wholesale cleaning, and pressing business in connection with the laundry, with several branches about the city. Those connected with this business have freely estimated that a fair share of this business by our concern should net at least $20,000 per year. The incorporators are in touch with the most expert laundry workers in the city and will adopt only the most approved methods that will bear out the name of the Twentieth Century Laundry and Cleaning Company. Stock can be bought from any of the incorporators and agents. Books are now open at the office of the secretary, 101 K Street N. W., Washington, D. C., and the office of Robert Queen, 1936 Twelfth Street N. W. This organization is capitalized at $50,000, divided into five thousand shares at $12.50. Officers and Incorporators. Charles L.

Y.—The burning of the mortgage papers clearing the Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church of an $18,500 debt was the big item of interest in religious circles here Wednesday evening. The Rev. P. A. Wallace, the pastor who came to this church from Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church in Philadelphia less than four years ago, is receiving congratulations from bishops and laymen of the denomination from all sections on his great success in raising and paying the above amount in so short a time. Bishop William L. Lee presided, and there were addresses by many prominent clergymen of several denominations, including Bishop J. C. Caldwell, President J. E. Mason of Livingstone College and Rev. A. A. Alleyne: Dr. Wallace's name has often been mentioned in connection with the bishopric, and this achievement places him in the list now as a candidate for episcopal honors at the next general conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church. He is an organizer and financier of rare ability and a good gospel preacher.

GEMS FROM THE QUARRIES. Between July 1-16 and September 15-19, the executive department caused the printing and distribution of 1,163,862 speeches, dead weight 79,457 pounds-a little, under 40 tons. The Treasury and Railroad Administration, combined, under the McAdoo regime, printed and distributed 329 tons, or 28,121,500 pounds. The taxpayers footed the entire bill. The colored voters of the United States in the near future must vote for the best interest of the United States and the colored American. Reason and common sense seem to have been abandoned in the application of the prohibition law. The country has made a big mistake.

Osteopath and Oculist Se “ . 1810 Ninth Street Northwest - DR. PARKER uses this table in his office in treating. the spine and! nerves. It is something entirely, new and wonderful. in construction. Tis! ‘universal joint” conforms with tlhe principles of anatomy. and physiology of; the spinal joints and is remarkably adapted to manipulative treatment of. the{ human spine. , When it is remembered that the spine in the’ “backbone”: of] the body and contains the spinal cord, which gives off nerves to all organs ond parts of the bgdy, it will readily be understood that health and strength . depend largely on the condition of the spiné and spinal cord. Strain, weak- ness, irregular: or’ abnormal condition of any region of the spine will affect, the spinal cord, thus causing troubles in the organs which -gét. their nerve supply from that section of the cord, be it the heart, lungs, seats liver,} kidneys, bowels, uterus, bladder, or any other organs. Osteopatitic treatment| corrects the spinal troubles, releases the cord and nerves, regulates the cir- culation, strengthens the organs, and Nature does the rest. © Dr. Parker pays special attention to cases of female troubles and troubles of the eyes.
