ATTORNEY JAMES A. COBB DENOUNCES HIS ACCUSERS
VOL. XLI. NO. 6
Explains His Actions While At Chicago—He Brands His Defamers As Malicious Liars—He Tells Why Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson Was Seated—The Entire Georgia Delegation Contested.
June 21, 1920.
Mr. J. Finley Wilson. Editor in Chief, the Washington Eagle, 907 U St. N. W. Washington D. C.
Dear Sir: In your paper, under date of June 19, 1920, appears a certain article headed in Jurid headlines, "Honorable James A. Cobb Lines Up With Lily-Whites." In the body of the article also appears the following: "Cobb, made a member of the Credentials Committee, on personal grounds, voted against the election of Henry Lincoln Johnson as National Committeeman in favor of a white man, Roscoe Pickett." Further on in the article appears the following: "His case was finally appealed to the Credentials Committee, of which James A. Cobb was a member. There Johnson won by a vote of 27 to 23. He then came before the National Committee for membership thereon. Here again he won. It was then that Frank Hitchcox ordered a campaign to send some Johnson delegates out and substitute white men for them. It looked as if Johnson had lost. When his case appeared most desperate and at a moment when it was most critical Cobb voted against the colored man for National Committeeman in favor of the white. He lost. Lincoln Johnson won."
JAMES A. COBB,
The article is both malicious and false. The facts are as follows: The whole State of Georgia was contested before the National Committee and an appeal was had on all of the cases to the Credentials Committee. The two committees on which I served were the Credentials Committee and the Rules Committee. Mr. Johnson, heading the delegation for Gov. Lowden, represented one faction and Mr. Pickett, heading the delegation for Mr. Wood, represented another faction. There was no question of the color line raised in Georgia, except as it was rumored that before the National Committee agreed to seat Mr. Johnson and his delegates-at-large that he had agreed not to stand for National Committeeman. The Chicago daily papers carried such a statement and at once the colored people said the reason therefor was that Mr. Johnson was colored, and that the National Committee wanted no colored man on its committee. Whether or not that was a fact I do not know. When the case of the delegates-at-large from the State of Georgia came before the Credentials Committee, over an argument on both sides, I sat the vote for the District of Columbia for Mr. Johnson and his delegates-at-large. In so doing I voted against colored men in behalf of colored men, and I voted against white men in favor of colored men and viceversa, as both delegations had both colored and white men on it, and the contest was not on any particular delegate, but all the delegates-at-
large. My reason for so voting for Mr. Johnson and his delegates-at-large was not that he was in favor or not in favor of a certain candidate, not that he was colored, but that according to my judgment he and his delegates-at-large had been properly elected. The Credentials Committee had absolutely nothing to do with electing a National Committeeman. The National Committeemen of every State and Territory were elected, by their respective delegates, and no one, other than the delegates, had anything to do with electing the National Committeeman of its respective State or Territory. So, I repeat that the statements contained in the above-mentioned article were both maliciously and basely false.
My only reason for answering this is that some people might not know what the writer evidently did know—that the Credentials Committee had nothing to do with electing the National Committee, and might have attributed some truth to the statements contained in the articles referred to. On behalf of Mr. Scott, I want to say that at no time did he seek, either directly or indirectly, so far as I know, to prevent Mr. Johnson from being elected National Committeeman. On the contrary, he advised two Wood delegates—colored men—to vote for Mr. Johnson. I want to say that at no time was Mr. Johnson in danger of being defeated for National Committeeman, as his delegation stood, after the Credentials Committee had passed on their right to their seats, Johnson-Lowden forces, 9 votes, and the Wood forces, 8 votes. At no time was there a change in such line-up until the Wood delegates voted for Johnson for National Committeeman. I have no objection to your paper or any other paper stating facts concerning me and drawing any inferences from those facts that may seem justifiable to such publication, but I do most seriously object to any individual or newspaper stating or publishing absolute falsehoods, and then drawing unfavorable inferences upon such falsehoods.
May I not expect that you will right the wrong thus done by making as notorious this letter-of mine, which is based upon absolute facts, which can be verified by any number of men in this city, as well as without, and also the records of the Chicago Convention, as the publication of June 19, 1920?
Very truly yours,
James A. Cobb.
PROF. HERSHAW ON THE ATLANTA CONFERENCE
Sunday evening, June 27, Mr. L. M. Hershaw addressed a large audience at the Lincoln Memorial Temple on the recent conference of the N. A. A. C. P., held at Atlanta, Ga. Mr. Hershaw devoted the larger part of the hour and ten minutes in which he spoke to a narration of the proceedings of the conference, which consisted of prepared addresses delivered by Northern white and colored peoples and Southern white and colored peoples.
The essential points emphasized by Mr. Hershaw were that it was worth while to have held such a conference in the South, since it made a precedent in favor of free speech on the fundamental question of human rights; that in view of the division of opinion, prior to the conference, as to the wisdom of holding a meeting in the South, and in view of the fact that Dr. DuBois insisted at all stages of the discussion that the meeting should be held there, the success of the conference at Atlanta was a vindication of Dr. DuBois' sound judgment, as well as being his personal triumph; and also that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, made up as it is of white and black people, Protestants, Catholics
WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1920
and Jews, Democrats, Republicans, Socialists and Liberals, is an ideal organization in which to work for the realization of fundamental human rights. Mr. Hershaw further, emphasized the principle that history teaches that peoples go forward in proportion to the freedom they have and exercise of intercourse and contact with ont another. As the individual, when isolated from other individuals, ceases to make progress and retrogrades in the scale of advancement, so the race, when segregated, suffers a like fate. The isolated, segregated peoples are the unprogressive, dying peoples. When Mr. Hershaw went from the mere relation of facts to the statement of generalizations, he parted company with some of his audience.

R. G. BYERS COMMENDED.
Dear Sir: I want to express the gratitude of the theatregoers to Mr. R. G. Byers. I have been a patron of every theatre he has had in his
charge, but I must commend him for the fine order that is kept at the Hiawatha, which is under his supervision, and the fine class of pictures that he gives the people. There is a great deal of gossip concerning his management of a new theatre, and I have also read his note of denial. Whether true or false, he will make good wherever he goes.

EDITOR SMITH OFF TICKET.
Ohio Republicans Forced Editor Off Ticket-Colored Voters Kick.
Colinbus, Ohio, July 5.—Harry C. Smith, editor of the Cleveland Gazette has been invited off the Republican ticket by a decision of the Secretary of State, which held, because Harry C. Smith's initials, "H. C.," were the same as those of Harvey C. Smith, present Secretary of State and candidate for re-nomination, he was guilty of collusion to confuse the voters. The Gazette editor denied the charge of collusion and insisted be entered the race in good faith and because of the desire of his race for representation. Harry M. Daugherty, political manager for Senator Harding, caused to be introduced against Harry C. a copy of a letter he had written him asking him to come to Chicago to work for Harding and in which he claimed he inclosed a check for $50 with which to defray his expenses. That Daugherty should do this, when the editor of the Gazette had been the lone colored editor, in the State to blindly support Harding, is regarded by colored voters as a collusion on the part of the Harding-Daughtery faction to force him off the ticket. Colored voters are greatly aroused over the action, and even Forte and Tyler, editors of the Cleveland Advocate, who Smith has bitterly fought without cause or justification, have denounced the conspiracy to put Smith off the ticket, and in the interest of the race, come to the Gazettes editor's support in the matter. The action of the Secretary of State in ruling Harry C. Smith out of the race is final—there being no recourse. The action adds more trouble for the Republicans in Ohio and makes doubtful the support of Harding by colored voters in Ohio, without which the Republicans cannot carry the State. The fact that the Cleveland Advocate, edited by Forte and Tyler, has taken up the cudgel for Smith has created alarm in Republican circles. The Advocate is being praised by the race for burying its personal differences to champion justice for Harry C. Smith.
ALL COMMANDMENTS.
It is evidently known that the white Americans do not live up to all of the commandments laid down in the Bible, but they must be given due credit for living up to his divine injunction: 'Love thine enemy as thyself.' Although they are arch enemies of the Americans—and there's no better proof of the fact than that thousands of our soldier dead are being brought back to their native soil to be buried, having been killed by the Germans' gas and bullets—the Americans would

An Important Acquisition To Business In Washington.
Hon. Cornelius J. Jones, chief counsel of the Civil War revenue cotton tax claimants of the South, has been, in the city for ten days, and during that time he has, purchased some of the most choice business and residential property in the fashionable northwest section of the city. The business investment is the purchase of 635 and 637 T street northwest, embracing nearly sixty feet
throw open their doors and shelter them and feed them when they are hungry and clothe them when naked, when, at the same time, they would slam their doors in the face of their known colored friends, scorn them in their nakedness, and give them a stone when they ask for a morsel of bread. Is there a better proof of these Christians (?) living up to the divine command: "Love thine enemy as thyself."? Oh, ye hypocrites, why love your enemies and hate and abuse your own friends? Like that much-dreaded disease, known as the "fut," which knows no north, no east, no south, nor west, the damnable lynching mobs have been allowed to grow to such an extent that they now know no section of this country when a cowardly lynching is to be pulled off. Nearly all of the States in this country forbid prize fighting, and the governors of the States see to it that the States be not disgraced (?) with such brutal (?) acts. But they can see no real bru-
front, covering the whole block from T street fronting the famous Howard Theatre and running across to Florida avenue. This property has street traffic on T street, and the Florida avenue entrance is ten steps from the street-car junction on the avenue and Seventh street. This property is to be improved with a three-story business and organization building for these claimants; and will be the official historical home for these strong Civil War revenue claimants. Mr. Jones left for his home last week, to return in the fall for business.
tality in buring a Negro at the stake or dislocating his neck, when "white" men and boys desire to engage in such sport. If lynching cannot lower the honor of any civilized nation, God knows I am too feeble-minded to understand what will. But we are very much surprised when we read the newspapers nowadays and fail to see an account of the lynching of some helpless colored man or woman by a mob of from five hundred to a thousand men, women and boys.
The lynching of three-colored men at Duluth a few days ago—on mere suspicion—would be a disgrace on any other nation on earth save the United States. Lynching has got to be a part of the true religion in America. And perhaps their idea for sending missionaries in foreign lands is to teach the people there not to do as they do at home, but to practice the gospel that is preached to them. But, after all, it is not a bad thing to teach people the right, even if one ignores it himself.—J. C. Cunningham.

GARFIELD NOTES.
Garfield, D. C.—There was a very large attendance at the Allen A. M. E. Sunday School last Sunday morning. The school had a general review of the lesson of the quarter, at which time all the classes took part. The school has a very nice Bible Class; which is growing rapidly. Mr. Alfred J. P. Taylor, chairman of the Sunday School visiting committee of the Mt. Bethel Baptist Sunday School Convention, gave the school some very helpful information.
At 11 o'clock the pastor preached a very able sermon to a large audience. The churchgoers were favored with a grand song service at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, conducted by Mrs. J. E. Caldwell and Mrs. M. G. Dabney. The following took part in the program: Mr. J. E. Young, a very fine paper; Miss Clara Moore, selection; Miss G. V. Green, solo; Miss

DR. PARKER uses this table in his office in treating the spine and nerves. It is something entirely new and wonderful-in construction. Its "universal joint" conforms with the 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 is the "backbone" of the body and contains the spinal cord, which gives off nerves to all organs and parts of the body, it will readily be understood that health and strength depend largely on the condition of the spine and spinal cord. Strain, weakness, irregular or abnormal condition of any region of the spine will affect the spinal cord, thus causing troubles in the organs which get their nerve supply from that section of the cord, be it the heart, lungs, stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, uterus, bladder, or any other organs. Osteopathic treatment corrects the spinal troubles, releases the cord and nerves, regulates the circulation, strengthens the organs, and Nature does the rest. Dr. Parker pays special attention to cases of female troubles and troubles of the eyes.

I saw Dr. James E. Shepard last week. The young educator had just returned from the North, where he had been on particular business. There is no man in the South better liked and esteemed than Dr. Shepard. Speaking of diplomats, he is some diplomat. There is not a grain of egotism in his brain. He aims to help his fellow man. He has the respect and confidence of the people in his State and no man in the South has done as much as he has single-handed. Well, he has some good and strong men behind him, who have given him aid and comfort, namely, C. C. Spaulding, Prof. Pearson, and many others of their order.
When my good friend Jesse H. Foster finishes that castle of his located a little beyond Anacostia, it will be a peach. Jesse will then take things easy. He is one man that has made a mark in this town. What Jesse doesn't know about clothing is not worth knowing. Then, again, he has some sweet helpmate. She is some calculator, and don't you forget it.
I want to congratulate the promoters of the new theatrical enterprise. This new theatre will be one of the most commanding in the city. It is to be erected in the very heart of the colored boulevard. There is no reason why two large theatres cannot succeed in this great city. * * *
Well, if you do not think that the fur will fly when Congress convenes, just wait and see. Senator "Pat" Harrison will want to know.
The bachelor's have decided to take a helpmate. They are tired of living alone. My good and young friend Vincent Thomas, I understand, has selected his bird, his denial to the contrary notwithstanding. I am confident that ex-Lieutenant will make any female a good husband, and the female bird that catches him will get a prize. Of course, Vincent is too modest to say so himself. I admire his congeniality. He is one individual that has a charm that seems to catch the fish. You can just bet an order of pancakes to hot biscuits that he will take a dive and catch that goldfish before many moons.
-Speaking of goldfish. I saw Morris Murray with a fishing line a few moons ago, and from all indications Morris will continue to nibble until the hook takes a strong hold, and then he will leave the bachelor's quarters and join the army of beneficents.
Capt. Arthur Newman has made a great school of the Armstrong. If you have any doubts, just read that Annual that has just been issued by him. It is the production of his printing establishment. It is a gem. The frontispiece has a most artistic cut of the brave Captain, who made himself famous in France. I was told by those who served under him in France that he proved himself to be a real man. 'The Armstrong is a schools.'
The Parents' League will not down. The next move by them will be an invasion of one thousand of its members on the new superintendent of schools. When it comes to pass that twenty thousand citizens or more are ignored, then the time has come for action.

There is to be a new paper started in this city. It is to be a journal edited by a man that the Government failed to suppress. We need a few manly men in this country.
The National Race Congress has made no report of the riot fund as yet. The Race Congress will not again resurrect. If it is attempted to revive it, then the tug of war will be real, indeed and in fact.

If the next administration is Republican, there will be fifty candidates for Recorder of Deeds and as many more to succeed Judge Terrell. The Judge has a mortgage on his office, and I am of the opinion that there is not money enough among the browns to lift the mortgage.
OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Continuation of the Great Speech of Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi in the Senate of the United States.
Of course, they can organize; of course they may have their unions; they may have their associations and their fraternities, because I know, and you know, that every class of people have found it necessary to organize in order to protect their own interests. Merchants have their organizations; manufacturers have their associations; farmers have their unions; laborers have, and teachers
might. But when teachers form their associations for their own protection and to present their views they should stop there and not go so far as to affiliate themselves with some organization outside which believes in the strike to enforce its demands. When this particular teacher, Miss Wood, was suspended by the Board of Education from the public school system here because she was charged on twelve or fourteen counts of believing or teaching bolshevistic doctrines, and other things which I will refer to later, the teachers, through their union, wrote this letter to the president of the Board of Education:
President of the Board of Education, Washington, D. C.
My Dear Mr. Hamilton:
The executive committees of the High School Teachers' Union and Grade Teachers' Union have asked that we communicate with you in regards to the suspension of Miss Alice Wood.
We are interested both in the manner of her suspension and the grounds upon which it was based. It seemed to be a matter of so much concern to all the teachers that we respectfully request to be fully informed on the following points:
1. What was the charge, if any, against Miss Wood?
2. Was Miss Wood informed of the charge and given the opportunity to reply to this charge before the board?
3. If there was a committee report on the matter, what was the action?
4. What was the action of the board?
We feel that it is due the teachers that they receive full information on a matter which so vitally concerns them.
So, when they made that demand and received their reply, they went out and employed counsel, put their proceedings in the courts, and fought it out, and brought such pressure on certain members of the Board of Education that the board failed to appeal the case to a higher court.
That is not all. Mr. Thurston testified, talking about the unions:
Mr. Thurston: Part of their plan to which I did take exception was the selection of principals of buildings by their recommendation of several people from whom the superintendent should select.
Senator Harrison: You say that Dr. Van Schaick had been in constant communication with the unions?
Mr. Thurston: Constant touch.
Senator Harrison: In constant touch with these leaders of the unions?
Mr. Thurston: Yes.
Senator Harrison: On what do you base that statement?
Mr. Thurston: Through these letters he has submitted and showed by me, and constant references by Dr. Van Schaick in meetings and to me personally, that Miss Deal wanted so and so, or he had been talking with Miss Deal.
Senator Harrison: She is at the
Mr. Thurston: She is at the head of the High School Teachers' Union. Mr. Thurston: I flatly disagreed with the union on their plan of selection of principals in grade schools and so on. Senator Walsh: What was that plan of selection of principals? Mr. Thurston: They believe that the teachers in the school building should get together and nominate the principal of the building. Senator Walsh: Have they actually made that suggestion to you?
Mr. Thurston: They have not actually made it to me, but that was the suggestion that was included in some of their literature, to either directly select, or select two or three from which the choice should be made. I claimed the administrative officer has a knowledge of teachers they never can have. A classroom teacher gets certain factors, perhaps, better than an administrative officer, but the administrative officer is bound to know the value of a teacher as an administrative officer or principal better than a lot of teachers could determine it.
Senator Harrison: Why was it that the leaders of the union did not come to you about these matters and would go to someone else?
Mr. Thurston: The leaders of the union had worked steadily with Dr. Van Schaick. They do not approve of the present superintendent of schools.
So it is that they had such influence that they reversed the findings of the board and kept the Board of
Education from appealing the case in, which they had employed counsel to fight for one of the teachers belonging to the union, and going further by advocating the right to select the principals in the schools. The only way to stop it, in my opinion, is for the Congress to pass legislation which will prevent any of the teaching force from belonging to these unions which are affiliated with outside organizations. Such activity upon the part of the unions would eventually rob the superintendent and the board of the management of the schools and eventually destroy the system.
The committee in its report made certain recommendations touching buildings and playgrounds. We visited many of the schools in the city and we found that in some instances there are school buildings as beautiful and as modern as can be found in any city of the nation. The Central High School building is so attractive that notwithstanding the Capitol and other beautiful and magnificent buildings, the equal of any in the world, this building compares most favorably with them. The Dunbar High School, the Armstrong Manual Training School, the Miner Normal School—all are wonderfully attractive buildings, modern and convenient in every way. But we found that there are many other buildings in the city that are old, antiquated and incommodious, where the sewerage is not proper, where the lighting is not sufficient, and where the playgrounds are inadequate—where children are stacked in and herded in such numbers that no teacher can possibly teach them properly. We found some classrooms in the city here where as many as 56 children were being taught by one teacher.
At the Dunbar High School and the. Armstrong Manual Training School there is no playground at all, although there are thousands of pupils there. There is a plot of ground there that the Government can take over and buy and the acquisition of which is most urgent and needed, and Congress should have made some arrangement to purchase a sufficient playground at that particular place if it were possible at this time. The same thing is true of the Park View School. I mention these in particular. There are many other schools in the city where the playgrounds are inadequate and much needed.
Mr. Jones of Washington: Mr. President.
The Presiding Officer: Does the Senator yield to the Senator from Washington?
Mr. Harrison: I yield. Mr. Jones of Washington: I wanted to ask the Senator whether the committee ascertained why estimates were not sent down to Congress, for instance, for the purchase of ample land at the Dunbar School? I know the situation there. I have visited it myself, and some of the members of the committee on appropriations have been urging the purchase of additional land for that school. The Senator from Kansas (Mr. Curtis), who is now presiding, has taken a special interest in the matter, and we had hoped that in the sundry civil appropriation bill, which we passed today, we would have been able to have a sufficient appropriation to buy the remainder of the block where that school is located, because we deem it very necessary. We found, when we came to consider the estimates, that estimates of only about half of the amount of money necessary to buy it had been sent down.
The Senator understands the rules under which we work with reference to appropriations. So we felt that rather than appropriate the amount of money which was estimated for, it would be better to make no appropriation, in the hope that an estimate would be sent down at the next session of Congress ample to purchase the land which might be purchased. I just wondered whether the committee found out a reason why, or who is to blame for not sending down ample estimates.
Mr. Harrison: No; the committee did not ascertain. We viewed these premises. We found that land was there that we could buy, and that if we did not buy it soon, perhaps someone else would buy it—some other person or concern would purchase it. It is needed most urgently. Of course, the Congress cannot make the appropriation if the estimate is not here. It is really very regrettable that estimates did not come in, so we could take some immediate steps toward acquiring those playgrounds.
When I first came to Washington, just being a country fellow, I was somewhat prejudiced against playgrounds, but I am now soundly convinced that it is economy in a city to make liberal appropriations to provide playgrounds not only around the schools, but in the thickly populated parts of the city. When I was a boy there was no restriction to playgrounds, because there were forests we could roam through as far as we desired; but here in these dingy places, where children are restricted
all day, where they are trying to develop their minds, and where, when they get out at recess, there is no place to play except on the streets, where they are threatened by being run over—as one. I believe, was run over at the Dumbar High School by an automobile—it is an outrage, and it is a short-sighted policy for the Congress not to make adequate appropriations for ample playgrounds throughout the city.
The first subject to which I desire to address myself is the friction on the Board of Education and between the Board of Education and the superintendent and other employees in the public school system of the District.
When this resolution was introduced and the investigation was begun, none of us had any idea what was the real condition in the schools here. We knew there was a deplorable situation. We knew there was great criticism—that there was something wrong—but we did not know just what it was. So we went to work impartially, with open minds, to ascertain what was the real cause of the trouble. I think, after the six or seven weeks of earnest labor upon the part of the committee, there now remains in the minds of the members of the committee no doubt as to what is the real cause of this disturbing, discouraging, terrible condition in the school system.
LYNCHING RECORD FOR THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1920.
Editor of The Bee:
I send you the following information concerning lynchings for the first six months of this year. I find according to the records kept by the department of records and research of the Tuskegee Institute, Monroe N. Work in charge, that there have been in the first six months of 1920 12 lynchings. This is 17 less than the number (29) for the first six months of 1919, and 33 less than the number (45) for the first six months of 1918. All of those lynched were Negroes. Eight of those put to death were charged with the crime of rape.
The States in which lynchings occurred and the number in each State are as follows: Alabama, 2; Florida, 1; Georgia, 2; Kentucky, 1; Kansas, 1; Minnesota, 3; South Carolina, 1; Texas, 1.
Yours very truly,
R. R. Moton, Principal.
MORE. THAN FIVE HUNDRED ATTEND SUMMER SCHOOL.
Hampton, Va., July 8.—More than five hundred colored teachers are attending the Hampton Institute summer school, which will continue in session until July 31. The registration includes teachers from many States—Alabama, 31; Arkansas, 13; Georgia, 26; Louisiana, 21; Maryland, 20; Mississippi, 13; North Carolina, 105; South Carolina, 41; Tennessee, 27; Virginia, 166. There are also four African students in attendance. Over four hundred students are women.
Dr. George P. Phenix, vice-principal of Hampton Institute and director of the summer session for teachers, recently said: "Hampton is the only colored authorized school offering high-school courses in Virginia. These high-school courses are well attended. A large number of teachers from distant States are working for the Virginia professional certificate."
WALTER F, WHITE SPEAKS AT HAMPTON.
Hampton, Va., July 8.—Walter F. White, of New York, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, spoke recently to the members of the Hampton Institute summer school, on the invitation of the director, Dr. George P. Phenix.
Mr. White, who has traveled over 70,000 miles during the past years, has investigated 29 lynchings, and has been in six race riots, studying the facts and underlying causes of these outrages and learning men's innermost thoughts on race relations, described the share-cropping system which led to the Elaine (Ark.) outbreak, the misrepresentation of Negroes in the press, and the treatment of the Negro at the recent Republican convention.
Mr. White declared that the industrial status of American Negroes has been changed by the stoppage of foreign immigration; that the South on account of the Negro migration has made hopeful overtures to its laborers; and that there has come among 12,000,000 American Negroes a great spiritual awakening, through which they have come to find that important changes can be secured only through racial solidarity.

WHY READ NEGRO BOOKS AND PERIODICALS?
By Daniel W. Chase.
This question was raised when the writer asked a certain man if he had read Dr. DuBois' latest work, "Darkwater."
"Darkwater," of course, is not as great a book as is Dr. DuBois' 'Sous of the Black Folk.' The volume contains a number of essays, one of which describes the spiritual agony of an oppressed people. It is needless to say the well-known challenge of Dr. DuBois is to be found on almost every page. The problems touched upon by Dr. DuBois are well worth reading, ofr how can you tell what the Negro thinks unless you read what the Negro writes? For, well might it be said that the most important work that men do is thinking, and all other work is based on that. The only foundation for accurate, thorough thinking is found in good books. If you have not read Shakespeare and the Bible, you cannot know the English language; and language surely is the tool with which you do your thinking. It is the tool with which your mind works in thinking and expressing thought. A campaign should at once be started to put into every home a Negro monthly, a Negro weekly, or three good weekly newspapers, if need be, and every up-to-date household should have at least ten books by Negro authors—not only to have them, but to read them and to recommend the reading thereof to

their children. Recommend the reading of the "Journal of Negro History," "The Crists" and other magazines. Read these works, study them, and create demands for works of Negro authors by asking for them in the public libraries and in the leading book stores. One man makes it a practice to buy two Negro newspapers from white news stands, thereby creating, se says, a demand. We need to read all the good books we can, but especially the good books written by ourselves. Every race takes a race journal. Did you ever frequent the Jewish quarter and find them reading a Yiddish paper? It is all the more necessary for us to read, for, bear in mind, we have yet to find ourselves. We are far—very far (and the more is the pity)—from an effective race-consciousness.
Then, read Negro books and periodicals for the hope that they give in a race worth while, for they tell how our fathers have struggled through the ages to solve the problems of eternal time, infinite space, and it tells how we, too, must strive to meet the new issues that confront us. Read Negro works. Lastly, read the best books of the world and grieve when you have not time to read. Know you, not that good books are to the mind what the bones of the skeleton are to the body? Well, it is just this, and you must agree, they hold it up and enable it to go forward.

ANACOSTIA NEWS.
Birney. School on Wednesday night was the scene of a brilliant reception held in honor of the teachers of the Birney building. There was music by a seven-piece orchestra, and exchange of greetings between the citizens and teachers. There were brief talks by the principal, Miss Janie Page, and Miss Emma V. Smith, Elzie S. Hoffman, M. Taylor, Rev. C. B. Ashton and Samuel J. Jones; and to top this off was the splendid supper served by the ladies of the suburb, Mrs. L. C. G. Craig, Mrs. Matthew Taylor, Mrs. Maggie Tallifero, Mrs. Ada Jackson Monroe, Mrs. Kate Bombry, Mrs. Susan Dyson, Mrs. Gouvenor Bank and Misses Lillian Bombry and O. Clark. The tables were filled with plenty of good things to eat. The school was well filled with both young and old. The young set enjoyed the music and dance.
Another reception was held the same evening at Campbell A. M. E. Church in honor of their new pastor, Rev. W. H. Manokoo. A good number were in attendance. Among the invited guests were Rev. W. V. Tunnel, of Howard University, who congratulated the pastor and members on the splendid team work. Refreshments were served.
Anacostia was much quitter on the Fourth this year than in preceding years. Green Willow Park, the big pleasure grounds were closed on account of inability to obtain a license. At the Birney School a local community center organization held forth at night. President Fosque and Mrs. W. E. Stewart, the secretary, inaugurated their first public entertainment.
MUSICAL NOTES
The public rehearsal on Sunday at Odd Fellows' Hall given by the Odd Fellows' Band attracted a good-sized audience who enjoyed a splendid program of music. W. Calvin Chase, Jr., features in a cornet solo, with full band accompaniment, and Miss Narcissa Fossit sang a beautiful soprano solo, with Miss Waters at the piano. This band accompanies the Grand Lodge to the B. M. C. in New York September next.
Notwithstanding the daily press stating that London and Paris reporting that jazz musicians are too expensive, letters recently received from local musicians who are over there state that all is well and that they are being royally treated by the Frenchmen.

There is another branch of the colored men who aver that the proper way to get the matter settled is to organize a State convention at which the people may be given the chance to pick out the leaders they desire to make the fight for recognition. These men say that the "old bunch" are merely seeking to exploit the rank and file as to suit their own selfish ends.

TO IMPROVE
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 Quinide, 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 tonde; 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,
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.

TO CELEBRATE 300th ANNIVERSARY OF AMERICA'S ORIGIN.
The year 1920 is doubly significant historically. It marks the 300th anniversary of two important events which led to the founding of the Republic of the United States of America. One is the signing of the Mayflower compact and the landing of the Pilgrims, and the other is the meeting of the first American legislative assembly.
On November 11, 1620, in the cabin of the Mayflower, a tiny bark lying off the Massachusetts coast, a little band of liberty-loving men, from "Brittania," entered into what history has styled the Mayflower compact. This agreement bound the 41 adult males in the ship's company into a civil body politic for the better ordering, preserving and furthering of their mutual ends. And it provided for such just and equal laws and offices as should be necessary for the general good of the colony.
Ten days later, so records Dr. Charles W. Eliod's inscription on the Pilgrim's Memorial Monument at Provincetown, Mass., "the Mayflower, carrying 102 passengers, men and women and children, cast anchor in this harbor 67 days from Plymouth, England.
"This body politic, established and maintained on this bleak and barren edge o fa vast wilderness, a State without a king or a noble, a church without a bishop or a priest, a democratic commonwealth, the members of which were straitly tied to all care of each other's good, and of the whole by everyone.
"With long-suffering devotion and sober resolution they illustrated for the first time in history the principles of civil and religious liberty and the practice of a genuine democracy."

NEW WELTERS CO.
THE E. A. WELTERS TOOTH POWDER COMPANY. Incorporated five years ago with a capitalization of $5,000,000, with stock sold at $10.00 per share, is now a corporation capitalized at $100,000.00 with NO SHARES FOR SALE AT ANY PRICE, yet it is understood that a small number of shares have been donated by some of the larger stockholders for certain Dentists and Druggists whose names have already been listed, and will be called on personally in the near future by the President of the Company. The Dentists and Druggists who will be solicited were selected by the Directors of the Company because of their progressiveness and the great advertising value that their connection will mean in the distribution of this exceptional dentifrice to the race throughout the United States.
The demand for the Welters' Tooth Powder has grown so tremendously during the past six months, since advertising in the Chicago Defender, that their manufacturing facilities are entirely too limited, and has forced the management to make immediate arrangements for their larger plant, to be erected in Baltimore, to properly care for the increased business. Not only in the United States has the demand greatly increased, but in England, France, Cuba, British Indies, and other foreign points.
TAXI
Meantime, uninformed of the Pilgrims, fellow-colonists of Captain John Smith had met at "James City" (Jamestown), Virginia, for the first American Legislative Assembly. On July 30, 1619, they had thus broken ground for the foundation of the present democratic form of government in the United States. This year (in 1920) these events are being commemorated in the United States, in England and in Holland. In August the origin of the Pilgrim movement will be celebrated in England. And early in September meetings will be held in Holland in memory of the Pilgrim's sojourn in that country.
In September a "second Mayflower" will set sail from Southampton, England, to follow to the American shore the path taken by the original Mayflower. (But this second Mayflower will be modern, and therefore much more seaworthy than her smaller predecessor.) This boat, carrying many prominent people of England, Holland and the United States, will anchor in Provincetown Harbor in late September. Its arrival will perhaps mark the crowning dramatic episode of the entire Tercentenary celebrations.
These events will not be celebrated in the United States by the citizens of Massachusetts and Virginia alone. Nor solely by the New England and South Atlantic States. Communities throughout America are planning to take this opportunity to review the "foundation upon which the United States rests"—and to re-emphasize those principles which these ancestors established—and which their sons, their' followers, and their followers' sons have handed down to us through our form of representative government.

tional and state treasuries, hundreds of thousands of dollars to be used in plans for the commemoration. One plan is to erect, overlooking Plymouth harbor, a colossal statue of Massasoit, the Indian chief who befriended the Puritan pioneer. Another is to set the Plymouth Rock, which in 1741 was raised above the tide, in its original position. Seventy American cities, including New York, Chicago and Boston, have started plans for their celebrations of the Tercentenary. The Sulgrave Institution and the American Mayflower. Council have been active in co-ordinating these plans.

THE BLAKE
J. M. Miller, Prop.
Before the Senate Committee—The Vacillating Testifier. Senator Harrison: Yesterday, when we adjourned, Mr. Bruce, you were discussing the Moens case.
Mr. Bruce: I submitted a copy of a letter bearing upon that case and referred to in my testimony, a communication under date of January 15, 1917, from Principal Newman, of the Armstrong Manual Training School. That communication, through the regular channels, was placed before the president of the Board and by him acted A memorandum in reference to this particular letter was written by the president of the Board, and I have a copy of it here. The original I have not been able to locate. The copy, however, is correct. Senator Harrison: Where did you get that copy from?
Mr. Bruce: Mr. Newman.
Senator Harrison: That is a copy of a letter from Dr. Van Schaick to Mr. Newman?
Mr. Bruce: It was a memorandum for me in reference to Principal Newman's letter of January 15, 1917.
Senator Harrison: Where did Mr. Newman get the copy from?
Mr. Bruce: The original was sent by me to Mr. Newman. He had a copy made. I asked him to let me have the copy. I have also another, which may or may not be of interest to the committee, bearing upon the interest of a member of the Board of Education in the establishment of a class in "beauty culture" at one of the vocational schools.
Senator Dillingham: Who was it from?
Mr. Bruce: Fountain Peyton.
Senator Dillingham: To whom addressed?
Mr. Bruce: To the assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools.
Senator Harrison: Has that any connection with the Moens matter?
Mr. Bruce: No connection with the Moens matter.
Senator Harrison: Let us go through with this Moens matter. This memorandum that you have read from Dr. Van Schaick was in Dr. Van Schaick's own handwriting?
Mr. Bruce: I think it was typewritten, but it was signed by him.
Senator Harrison: That was dated January 20, 1917—when you said that you and Dr. Van Schaick visited the school with Moens? Was it before or after this?
Mr. Bruce: I think before that.
Senator Harrison: How long before?
Mr. Bruce: Immediately after the letter of January, 12, 1917, from Principal Wilkinson, of the Dunbar High School.
Senator Harrison: So, when Dr. Van Schaick wrote this memorandum questioning the right of Principal Newman to issue such an order he had seen the letter from Principal Wilkinson and Principal Newman to you touching Moens' activities?
Senator Dillingham: Nothing else further you want to say on that?
Mr. Bruce: Not on that particular subject.
