PROF. AND MRS. A. E. MALONE CONTRIBUTE $3,200 TO RAISE SOCIAL CENTER FUND. VOL. XLI. NO. 27 PROF. AND MRS. A TRIBUTE $3,200 CENTER FUND. DRAMATIC CLOSE TO CAM- PAIGN FOR SOCIAL CENTER. (Quincy Whig-Journal, St. Louis, Mo.) How more than $4,700 was raised on the final day of the Social Center drive—Sunday—is an interesting story. The scene has its setting in the Bethel A. M. E. Church, on Oak street, Sunday morning. Present in addition to the local workers and Prof. and Mrs. A. E. Malone of St. Louis, formerly of Quincy and who still feel themselves residents of Quincy, were several prominent Negroes from different parts of the United States. They were brought [Name] to Quincy to assist in the drive by prof. A. E. Malone, who is now rated as one of the few Negro millionaires in the United States. Among them were Dr. J. E. Moorland of Washington; Gerald Tyler, director of music in St. Louis schools, and Prof. Frank L. Williams, principal of Sumner High School in St. Louis. Money Is Raised Fast. Just little more than $5,000 of the $10,000 fund had been raised when the meeting was held. The teams reported about $1,100, and after Dr. Moorland made an address, Prof. Williams started out to raise $500 in the audience and he did so in twenty minutes, Dr. Moorland announced that the sum then reached $6,795. If any one will make it $6,800 I [Portrait of a woman] will give the other $3,200," announced Prof. Malone, who has been in charge of the campaign. S. H. Shumaker rushed forward with the needed $5 and down came Malone's $3,200. A great shout went up at once and the church presented a dramatic scene. While some shouted others wept, handkerchiefs were waved, the doxology was sung and there was general rejoicing. At the final meeting many people doubled their previous pledges. Capt. W.-W. Fields, led the van of Quincy citizens with a pledge of $200. Prif. The Washington Bee and Mrs. Malone started the drive off by giving several hundred dollars and closed it with Mr. Malone's subscription of $3,200. Before the meeting broke up Prof. and Mrs. Malone were called forward and Prof. R. A. Roberts, was designated to express gratitude of the people for the interest manifested by them in the campaign. To Continue Drive. The various teams of workers in the campaign will continue their work for some time. When the meeting closed Sunday $10,007 had been pledged. It is expected that a few of these will not be paid and the teams will continue to take pladges to make up for what is lost. Subscriptions also will be taken from those who did not have a chance to subscribe before the campaign closed. Mr. and Mrs. Malone returned to Quincy November 21 to systematize the collection of the pladges. DR. AND MRS. SHEPARD CELE BRATE ANNIVERSARY. President of Durham National Training School Married Twenty-five Years-Life a Success. Durham, N. C., Nov. 23.—The celebration of the twenty-fifth wedding anniversary of Dr. and Mrs. James E. Shepard, the former being president of the National Training School, occurred here the past week and was a fine social event. The Shepherds were the recipients of many and varied tokens of esteem from many sources. This function served not only a social purpose, but centered public attention on the work Dr. Shepard is doing in directing and building up the National Training School in a very decided manner. From an humble beginning ten years ago to a large and expressive institution now, is proof positive of the splendid executive powers of its founder. The enrollment of students for the present school year is large, but many more would be on the roll if the accommodations were more adequate. The waiting list of applicants for admission is conclusive evidence that the school must have more dormitories to meet the ever increasing demands of students for admission. BARRIERS BEING REMOVED. Tuesday morning at 11 o'clock the Housekeepers' Alliance, an organiza- 19 M. B. PRESIDENT JOHN H. HURLEY Laboring Man's Choice for Commission Just and Honest, Regardle Laboring Man's Choice for Commissioner of the District of Columbia—Fair, Just and Honest, Regardless of Color or Condition. tion made up of the gentle folk of white women, met in Thomson School, 12th and L streets northwest. Mrs. Julia M. Layton, community secretary of Garnet-Phelps School, by invitation, was present and made a talk. Out of the conference a plan was reached whereby girls who pursue domestic work for a living, may have a full course of lectures, receive a certificate at the close of the same, which will be used as a recommendation and will be recognized by these hundreds of housewives. This will greatly benefit the girl, especial coming from the rural districts, and has nothing with which to recommend as to fitness for certain classes of work. This course in domestic science will be supervised by Mrs. Layton. The lecturer will be furnished by the alliance. Very soon, the same organization hopes to open a placement bureau in this community center, the same as in Franklin School. WOMAN'S MERCANTILE CO A number of women have organized and are pushing rapidly toward securing a building and opening a department store. Mrs. Frances Robinson, president; Mrs. Grace McDaniels, secretary; Mrs. Charity A. Smothers, treasurer, and Mrs. Alma J. Scott, auditor. Last Monday evening a large number of women met in Metropolitan Baptist Church to listen to the plans and take stock, etc. Prof. Eddington and Mrs. Julia Mason Layton were the speakers. Both made very forceful talks, showing the needs of such an effort and the cooperation as a race toward making it a possibility, and that very soon. Mrs. Julia West Hamilton and Mrs. Robinson also made short talks. ZION BAPTIST MEN'S CLUB EN TERTAIN THE OLD FOLKS. Sunday afternoon the Men's Club of Zion Baptist Church, accompanied by their faithful and splendid pastor, Rev. William J. Howard, entertained the forty-seven inmates of the Stoddart Baptist Home on Bryant street. From 3:30 to 4 they held a prayer and praise service. Mr. Ellis, of the club had charge of the music. Mr. Cheatam presided. The meeting was opened by Mr. J. Cunningham, president. The old folks took part in this service, giving out hymns and testifying. The regular program was opened with reading of the Scriptures, by Rev. Ingram of Nineteenth Street Baptist Church; prayer, by a member of the club; remarks by the master of ceremonies. Mrs. J. M. Layton had 1 mer of the Distriet of Columbia—Fair, Press of Color or Condition. been selected by the club to talk to the Stoddart Baptist Home family. She took as her theme the history of the song, "Steal Away to Jesus," noting the results accomplished in the last fifty-five years by our people, due largely to the old fathers and mothers, stealing away to Jesus and praying that the burden might be lifted. Very forceful remarks were made by Rev. Howard, Mr. Opey, Zion's Church clerk; Mrs. Ellis, community secretary of Randall School; Mr. Quivens Brown of the Men's Club and Mrs. White, the matron of the home. At the close of the program a toothsome repast was furnished to the inmates and all present, furnished by this splendid club of men. May other churches and clubs do likewise. RED CROSS AT ARLINGTON. Again on Friday at 2:30 o'clock the faithful few were present to witness the last tribute of respect to "our boys" who fell on French soil and have been brought to this country. Rev. and Mrs. E. W. D. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. A. Syphax, Lieut. Oxley and Miss Beard of Community Service, Inc., and Mrs. Julia M. Layton and her corps of Red Cross workers, in uniform. There were twenty-one colored boys buried. Relatives from dayton, Ohio; Baltimore and the lower counties of Maryland were present. Luncheon was served by the Red Cross: STOOD HIGHEST. Wash., D. C., Nov. 20, 1920. Editor The Bee: In the test examination of last week at Syracuse University, New York, in the subject of "animal husbandry," Master Norman Williams, a graduate of the class of 1920, Dunbar High School, stood No. 1 in the class, making a percentage of 100 per cent. Master Williams is taking the course of agriculture, and is the only colored boy in this section. When at Washington, he makes his home with his aunt, Miss Blennie Bruce, 1911 Eleventh street northwest. Respectfully, J. S. Coage. The Ladies' Auxiliary to the Ushers' Board of Asbury M. E. Church met with Mrs. Julia Lefwich, at her residence, 1013 P street northwest, last week, and tendered Mrs. Fannie M. Clair a reception prior to her departure with her husband for Africa. It was a reception royal, and Mrs. Clair, who is a favorite with the members of Asbury Church, of which her distinguished husband was pastor, was presented with a handsome satin beaded bag and flowers by Mrs. Lefwich on behalf of the Ladies' Auxiliary. Mrs. Lefwich said, among other things, that Mrs. Clair was one of the most amiable and untiring Christian workers in this community, and because of the esfeem in which she is held by the people of Washington and members of the Ladies' Auxiliary, it was deemed right and proper that a reception should be tendered her prior to her departure for the great African continent. Mrs. E. V. Jarvis, formerly organist of Asbury Church and one of the most accomplished musicians in the city, rendered a beautiful instrumental solo. The reception committee that rendered the feast consisted of Mesdames A. Orum, president; Flo Day, secretary, and Belle Sprague, treasurer. This was one of the most entertaining social events ever given in this city and was thoroughly enjoyed. THANKSGIVING FOOTBALL. Much interest is being shown in the coming football classic here on Thanksgiving Day by the large number of Howard graduates in Huntington, W. Va. It is said that a special car has been arranged to carry the large number from that city to attend the festivities here. THE LURAY APARTMENT, 1320 R STREET N. W.

Telephone North 2315-J. 1232. You Street N. W. Washington, D. C. THE BROOKLYN HOME MUTUAL HOUSING COMPANY OPENS BIG APARTMENT HOUSE TO COLORED PEOPLE. Tuesday night, November 23, 1920, several hundred stockholders and friends of the Mutual Housing Company assembled at the Luray Apartment, 1320-22 R street northwest, and formally opened the apartments for colored people. Several prominent men and women addressed the people, after which refreshments were served and the young people connected with this organization engaged in dancing. Apartment I, on the first floor, was used for the meeting and the social. Splendid music was furnished and every one enjoyed a most profitable and pleasurable evening. Too much credit cannot be given the promoters and stockholders constituting the Mutual Housing Company. Several weeks ago, the president, Arthur W. Mitchell, saw the seriousness of the housing situation in this city, called together a few interested men and women, and in a modest way organized this splendid company. The immediate purpose of the company is to acquire apartment houses and blocks of residential property now occupied by whites and rent the same to colored people. Its ultimate purpose is to do a general housing and building business. There is no doubt as to the splendid opportunity and great field open to this kind of corporation. The company is regularly incorporated. Its capital stock is $150,000, and although only a few months old, has demonstrated its ability to do that for which it was organized, namely, house the people. Those wishing apartments and houses should see the president or one of the other officers of the company at the company's main office, 1232 You street northwest. The stock is being sold at $12.50 per share, payable one-fourth cash, balance in monthly installments. The company is investing only in improved real estate. Those investing in the stock of this company may feel sure that their investments, aside from being safe, will pay a handsome dividend. The following named persons are official representatives of the company and will be glad to call on persons interested in buying stock in this splendid housing company: Fred R. Ramsey, 1816 12th St. N. W.; William R. Jones, 419 Oakdale street N. W.; Miss Virginia L. Williams, 1523 Corcoran street N. W.; Norvin Crawford, 1710 Johnson St. N. W.; Thomas R.

The company has just announced the purchase of another very large apartment house. At this rate, the colored people of the city are going to be housed as well as make money in their investments in the company's stock. The following are the officers and directors: Arthur W.

The alumni of Howard School of Wilmington gave a reception to the principal and Miss Edwina Kruse, principal emeritus, in the assembly room, and an elaborate program was rendered. The special feature was the presentation of a sterling silver, goldlined loving cup to Miss Kruse by the alumni for her lengthy service. This Miss Kruse highly appreciates. --- A LETTER THAT STUNG. The Washington Post, Washington, D. C. The Editor: I desire to call your attention to an article I read in your paper this morning on page 5, column 4; with reference to "Another Woman Assaulted—Mrs. Emma Heeg—Third Attack Within Three Days." In your article you say that a Negro was secreted in this woman's back yard, and about 9 o'clock, when the victim went into her back yard; she was given a blow by the Negro on the head, and as she fell she screamed, evidently frightening her assailant away. Then you say Mrs. Heeg was unable to give any description of the man. I would be obliged to the Post if it will inform me from what fountain of information it ascertains that this woman's assailant was a Negro. In your last paragraph you say it was a Negro who knocked this woman down; then you contradict yourself and say: "The woman could give no description of the man." The Post should be ashamed to publish this kind of rotten stuff, for it was just this kind of stuff that promoted the racial Hades on July 21, 1919. Your paper, the Times and the Herald, by agitated big headlines, told the public the lie about two colored men attempting to ravish a white woman in southwest Washington, and when the truth was known, no colored men had a devilish thing to do with the affair; but, on the contrary, it was a white man after another man's wife. As our collection serves me, the band in this case went to the department where his wife was employed, and upon complaint and stating the truth of the affair, caused the dismissal of his wife. Some months ago you published in your paper that a colored man had held up and robbed a young white woman. A day or two later the truth leaked out. The white woman owed a number of bills, and with an intent to defraud her creditors, lied, feigning that she had been attacked—of course, by a colored man. And you and your paper, without any creditable proof—without any direct evidence—strove to drive a dagger into the heart of the colored race. You are aware, and know as well as I, that most of the attacks can be white men made colored, but you prefer to throw the dirty guilt on some poor colored person, and thereby stir up racial trouble. Frankly, I am surprised at your publication. Instead of being a peace promoter, you apparently choose the other side, being a peace breaker and an agitator of racial strife. No 100 per cent, pure-blooded American would insert such an article unless he had authoritative information, well authenticated, and based upon direct evidence, warranting publication. Had you such evidence and facts, I know every real colored American would aid you in bringing such a culprit to the bar of justice. But you have no such facts in this case and many others you have published. Although the woman could give no description, you dare and report him colored. This act on the part of your paper is shameful cowardice and ingratitude. None other than a Negrohater, copper-head or rebel white fiend would stoop to insert such an article to the detriment of a numerically weak race, when, know ye, they have been weighed and tried and were not found wanting. For in every insurrection, uprising, rebellion and in the World War you have found them willing patriots, loyal citizens and true Americans. Shame on you and your paper for the publication of such an article! Editor The Washington Bee. Dear Sir: Just a word to you to inform the public of a few things which might do them some good to know. The Pullman porters, whom you trust with your children, with your wife, with your mother, and also yourself, your money and valuables, are the lowest paid employees on the railroad today. Have you ever stopped to think what harvest a dishonest porter could reap? When you get up from your berth in the night to go to the washroom, or to get a drink of water, what is stopping the porter from going to your berth and taking half or all of your money, your watch or other valuables that you might have? All those things are a great temptation, especially to a man who is only receiving $60 per month. Nine-tenths of the rich people who travel today never stop to think that at home they have servants whom they pay from $100 to $150 per month and board, and then they do not trust them as much as they do the Pullman porter, who is only getting $60 per month and has to pay for every meal he eats. When the Pullman Company got permission from the Interstate Commerce Commission to raise their rates, they raised everybody's wages except the porter. The conductors and office clerks and also the carpenters have had their wages raised twice in the last year, but the man whom the public expects to be made comfortable by the whole trip of his journey, the man whom the company lectures to, the man whom the company pays the service inspector $200 per month to see that he gives the public service, has not had his wages raised a penny since Mr. McAdoo raised them to $60 per month. The porter who works for you the whole of your trip gets $60 per month. The Pullman conductor who takes your ticket gets $190 per month. The waiter who waits on you in the dining car gets $67 per month and his board. Every employee of every kind connected with the railroad or the Pullman Company works on an eight-hour basis except the porter. The Pullman conductor, who runs right with his porters on the same run, works on a 240-hour month, and every hour over that he gets 65 or 75 cents per hour overtime. The porter has to work on an 11,000-mile basis a month. For instance, if his run is 500 miles long, and it takes twelve hours to run them, if he is six hours late he gets no overtime, for he has only gone the 500 miles, no matter how long it takes him. Now, we know the public is under the impression, since it has been taxed and increased in rates, that all of the railroad employees have had their wages raised. But that is not so in the case of the Pullman porters. They have not had their pay raised since Mr. McAdoo did it. The porters realize that since the public has to pay such a high price now to ride in a Pullman car, there is not much left for them. There are a great many people when they go traveling, their friends or relatives are stopped at the gate by the gateman. Then, if it is a lady, she gets excited and thinks that she cannot find the train. She will then pay a red-cap porter 50 cents to carry her bag from the gate to the train, which takes him about five minutes. Most likely she will eat two or three meals in the dining car, tip the waiter 25 cents each meal, and when she arrives at the end INDIA HAIR GROWER THE EAST INDIA Wit Hair, Vitality If you EAST If you Hair, any H try a jar of ER.

Every porter that the Pullman Company hires they have to know where he has been employed for the last five years, and they investigate personally his employers, whether he has been honest or not. They have made more porters dishonest in the last year than they have hired in five years. Now for instance, in Washington, D. C., there are a number of young ladies' schools and colleges; and when the young ladies are on the cars, going to and from school, they are so glad to see their friends and each other that they lay their valuables and their purses most anywhere, and most likely forget just where they did lay them. And if the porter of that car has a family at home, and he knows that he left nothing there, and on pay-day he looks for nothing more than enough to pay his house rent, what is he liable to do under such circumstances? I have been in the Pullman service, and I am speaking from my own experience. Now, these are a few things that the public should know, but if we told them you know how long our jobs would last. Hoping you will print a few lines of this, and by so doing you will be roicing the 'sentiment of 6,000 men. Before After For Corns and Bunions.

Attest: JAMES TANNER, Register of Wills for the District of Columbia, Clerk of the Probate Court. PRESIDENT HURLEY WINS. He Raps the Commissioners—A Vindication for the Great Labor Leader. Will Appeal to Congress. Re-election of Joseph H. Hurley as president and subordinate officers, attacks on the District Commissioners and the announced purpose of carry- ing their case to Congress were the outstanding features at last Wednesday. night's meeting of the City Employees' Association in the cadet armory in answer to the refusal of the District Commissioners to raise the pay of the per diem workers to conform with the wage scale of the Navy Yard. Unlike two indignation meetings last summer, there was no strike talk at the meeting. To emphasize further their confidence in Hurley, regardless of the recent refusal of the Commissioners to deal with him personally because of an attack made on Commissioner C. W. Kutz, the 500. workers present re-elected Hurley by a unanimous standing vote. Predicts Short Terms. After declaring that the friends of labor in Congress will begin to agitate next month for an investigation of the District Commissioners and their methods, Hurley exclaimed: "The Commissioners will have the shortest terms on record. Hendrick will hardly get his seat warm before he loses his job. When he made that claim about sacrificing $110,000 in the sale of his gas, stock merely for the purpose of serving as a Commissioner, he must have had a poor opinion of the public if he thought it would swallow that story." Frank J. Bresnahan, vice-president of the association and representative of the men on the municipal wage board, ridiculed the statement of the Commissioners in their rejection of the wage increases that they had considered the cost of living. "What do they know about the cost of living as it concerns the workers?" he asked. "Two of them have so much invested that they wouldn't feel the price of coal if it went to $30 a ton. The other can get his coal from the Army quartermaster at a big reduction; where you pay $15, he probably pays $7." Laying Off Union Men, Charge. Bresnahan claimed that a city laborer who gets $5 a day has a surplus of $2.80 a month after feeding and housing a family of four people and paying for clothes, medical attention and amusements. He added that the average per diem laborer gets less. He charged that the wage board was packed "three to two against the workers, and always will be until a change is made." One speaker from the floor charged that the municipal officials are laying off union men and replacing them with nonunion men at every opportunity. Another shouted: "They are trying to get our head; if the head goes the tail is bound to go, too." Chaplain Pryor, of Local 127, spoke fervently about the rights of the association, Americanism and the Irish Republic. List of Officers Elected. The Hurley slate then went through without the slightest opposition, every officer being re-elected for 1921; and three minor vacancies were filled. The officers are: President, Joseph H. Hurley; vice-president, Frank J. Bresnahan; business, representative, A. T. Lewis; treasurer, Jeremiah Mahaney; financial secretary, John F. Gleason; assistant financial secretary, William J. Smith; recording secretary, Charles Gerber; corresponding secretary, Walter Burns; wardens, Price and West; conductors, Laws and Ford; chaplains, Pryor and Curtis; trustees, Lewis, Price and Griffin; members of the Executive Committee, Hebron, Jones, Engle and Costello. MR. WILSON'S LIMITED DEMOCRACY. Bird-in-Hand, Pa., June 28, 1920. To the Editor of the Nation. Dear Sir: In a recent article you say, referring to President Wilson, "who had battled for that democracy at Princeton" etc. A friend, one of the ablest of the younger generation of colored men, said to me recently—he is from New Jersey: "In selecting a college, I thought of Princeton, but, because of the race prejudice there, under Wilson, was advised to go elsewhere." He went to Harvard. Another friend, a teacher in the colored public schools in Washington City, when I told her this, said: "Yes; Princeton is now about like the University of Virginia." If Wilson "battled for democracy" at Princeton, it must have been white democracy, the only part of which he has the remotest conception. How the intelligent colored people of this country must love him! MARIANNA G. BRUBAKER. [Our correspondent is correct. Mr. Wilson's democracy has always stopped at the color line, as it did at the sex line until it was to his political advantage to become converted. Princeton's doors are closed to colored Americans.—Editor.] Keep Your Hair In Fine Condition Smooth and Glossy by using Howard's Hair Pomade Large Size Jar, 25c For Sale by Peoples Drug Store, 7th and M Sts.

The Bee takes especial pleasure in calling attention to an article on the front page of this paper announcing the opening to our people of the Luray Apartment House, in the 1300 block of R street northwest. This new corporation is doing the necessary work in the matter of housing the colored people of the city of Washington. We especially commend it and hope that the work of the company will not be handicapped by lack of money with which to purchase property, most of which, we understand, will be entered to the stockholders of the company. Aside from housing the people, its plans are such that it is bound to pay large dividends to all of the investors. It seems to us that this is a splendid opportunity to every one who wishes to invest to do so at an advantage to himself and at the same time render most effective services to our people. The officers of this company are successful business men enjoying the full confidence of the people. We heartily endorse the work being done by this corporation and highly commend it to our people.

It is stated that the Southern Ku Klux Democratic organizations anticipate invading the North and teach Northern colored Americans how to subdue the Southern colored man. Well, when this hellish combination is ready to take the train for Northern territory, let it be certain that when it reaches Mason and Dixon's line to have its way clear to make a quick return, because whenever it reaches the line mentioned there will be a hot old time in town that night, "believe us." The new colored American is on guard today, and he is prepared to defend his wife and children at all hazzards. The Bee's advice to those Southern invaders is, be sure that they come well prepared. The new colored American is well trained in the art of war and that his charge will know no quarters. The colored American will obey the law and defend his Constitution, but he will not sit and see his women and children slagtered without a protest, and that protest will not be wide, but it will surpass all German invasion of the late world war. Invade the North, if you will, but be well prepared. You may take your gun and use your energy to subdue these faithful and loyal allies; while the enemy of this republic is running away with it. The colored American is no longer a serf or a slave, but a true American who intends to defend his home. MR. JOHN H. HURLEY. The City Employment Association elected Mr. John H.

ALPHA PHI CONVENTION. The annual convention of the Alpha Phi Fraternity, which will be held at Kansas City, Mo., during the Christmas holidays (December 27th to 31st, inclusive, 1920) will be the largest attended meeting ever held by Negro college men.

The Bee good taste for the entire bunch to people are with President Hurley. and to meet again their comrades of college days, give definite evidence that the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity will have this year the biggest, the most enthusiastic and effective convention in the history of the organization. This is especially to be expected, since the efforts of the general secretary of the fraternity to secure reduced rates to the convention have resulted in a grant by the railroads of a one and one-third fare for the round trip on the "certificate plan" to all the members (also to dependent members of their families) attending the meeting of the fraternity, to be held at Kansas City, Mo., December 27th to 31st, inclusive, 1920. Many of the members of the frater- nity will be accompanied to the convention by members of their families, as the effective period over which the reduced rates as granted by the railroads extends allows ample leeway in the purchase of going tickets (December 27th to January 4th, inclusive), thereby permitting their families to enjoy a most delightful trip to Kansas City. The "Gate City to the West" awaits with eager interest the coming holiday season, when it will, in the spirit of the hospitable West, throw open its doors to the members and friends of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. Every effort is being made by the Beta Lambda Chapter of the fraternity in Kansas City to effect arrangements for the many members from the various chapters of the fraternity throughout the United States, who will be in attendance at the convention, whereby their fraternity brothers may have proper introduction to the citizens of the greater Kansas cities, that they may have the personal touch which will bring to them a knowledge of the high aims and ideals of the fraternity as it is expressed by the Negro college men who compose the organization.

SAVAGERY UNRESTRAINED SAVAGERY UNRESTRAINED SWEEPING THE SOUTH ORGY OF ATTACK ON DEFENSELESS SOUTHERN COLORED PEOPLE INDULGED IN BY BARBARIC ROUGHNECKS. Nothing But the Strong Arm of the Federal Government Can Restrain the Inhumanity of Colored Americans Hating Man-Hunters in the Southern States. Bv. Joseph C. Manning. Savagery unrestrained is being vented as against defenseless colored people in the South and the orgy of attack is sweeping and wide in its unusually unchecked course. The barbaric roughneck is riding in the open as a man-hunter and only a coloerd skin is essential to invite the white savage to merciless assault upon his unprotected and defenseless victim. Innocent colored women and helpless colored children are not immune from the blood lust of the white rakes who rage forward and onward in their infamously, cowardly brutality, while these scamps are as quick to burn sleeping babes in their homes as they are to shoot down the unarmed colored man and woman on the public highway. These soulless, conscienceless, heartless scoundrels, these "whited sepulchers" in the form of humanity, white of skin and black as the smut-stacks of hell within, are like hungry wolves setting upon a stricken down lamb as the shout and cry of Negro is set up by the man-hunting roughneck. There is only one restraint to it all and that restraint is the strong arm of the Federal Government, and after the 4th of March of 1921 there will come into power an administration with the strength to meet this condition and with the courage to meet it. There will be those in authority in Washington who will as quickly oppose the practices and cruelties of the Hun in Florida and in Georgia as have the American people revolted against the horrors of the Hun in other lands than our own. It will not be, after March 4, an administration which gets its votes from Hun roughnecks in the Southern States, and in the very meantime indulging in verbal attacks upon Hun cruelty across the seas. This orgy of man-hunting in the South must stop. It will stop only when the Federal Government puts a stop to it. And what the civilized Southern people most need in self-help in stopping this reign of barbarity is the right to vote so that they can select legislative and executive agencies in the Southern States of their own electing instead of being ruled over by the agents of the Southern Democratic oligarchy. It is a simple matter for the Congress, after March 4, to make it a crime against the Government to take human life without process of law. In our republic, the citizen is our only sovereign authority and it ought to be treason to our government to mob a sovereign citizen. Let Southern rakes and rough-necks, all along from the southwest corner of hell to Arkansas, Florida and Georgia and elsewhere in the South, set up a howl, as they will howl, but the time has come to face and to meet these hellions. PAUL DUNBAR MOVEMENT STARTED IN CHICAGO, ILL. A Paul Dunbar monument movement has been started in Chicago.

GREAT CHRISTIAN CONGRESS Afro-American Ministers, Local Ministers and Delegates of All Denominations of the United States and Canada to Meet Here Next March. To Whom It May Concern: We beg leave to invite the ministers of the Afro-American churches of the United States, and with their local preachers and delegates, irrespective of denominations, to assemble at the Nation's Capital, Washington, D. C., March 7, 1921, in and for the purpose of creating renewed interest in saving souls. A great Christian congress (undemominational), in meeting at the Capital of the Nation, to put before the world the necessity of increased interests in Christianity, morality, cleanliness, sobriety and how to live, will bring good results. We have had different colored conventions looking to the betterment of the race in many ways. et us have a national soulsaving congress. The race needs to keep the motto of their fathers and mothers before them, who prayed earnestly in times past for freedom. The Afro-American is getting too worldly. Let the colored ministers, local preachers and delegates of all denominations come together in Christian spirit and create renewed interest in soul saving. Let the white clergymen of this country give their moral support. Our object is to help build up God's kingdom here upon earth. The Afro-American newspapers are especially invited to have representatives at this meeting. It is by and through the colored press the masses are to be reached in part.

THE ONLY ONE. There is one department under this administration that has given colored employees a square deal, and that is the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Director Wilmarth and his assistant, Captain Fisher believe in a square deal. There may be a few holdover females, who would like to boss colored girls unjustifiably, but they are held in check by the Director and his assistant. Colored employees in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing have no cause to complain. Colored girls always get a square deal. NEW LIBERTY HOTEL. Joseph I.

DEPARTMENTS ALREADY ESTABLISHED PRESIDENT JAMES E. SHEPARD, DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA --- PUBLIC MEN AND THINGS. Well, they had a "jim-crow" committee in New York to look after the colored newspapers, whose business it was to see that colored editors got their share of the funds. All that this committee accomplished was to see that the expenses of its members were paid. The colored papers that worked so fully have not been paid yet. Th. jim-crow" committee closed its doors two days before the close of the campaign and left for their respective homes, and the colored editors have been weighed in the balance and found,waiting for their pay. Editor Fred Moore was wise when he refused the chairmanship of this alleged "jim-crow" committee. The prince of knockers, who left this city, was himself knocked out, and he is walking around town waiting for a remittance of his filthy lucre. Had he looked out for himself, instead of knocking others, he would not be in the soup today. It is an aphorism, true as the Bible, that the pit you dig for others you fall into yourself. *** Our good friend Ralph E. Langston left New York a few days ago and came to this city for a rest. Ralph had conducted a red-hot campaign for the Republican ticket and made himself weak. Now there is Thomas Frazier, the funeral director, who has made good. He is always doing something for His housing corporation is ing. Perhaps it is an organi hat is meeting the demands of ple. *** Well, you can just bet that the incoming administration will select men who will be of service to the people. The office politician in days gone by used to repair to a lunch room and drink and eat and discuss nonsense. I was glad to see W. Calvin refer to the next leadership and what this leadership is expected to do. George W. Taylor, the jeweler, is some salesman. George is an affable fellow and an up-to-date manufacturer of jewelry. He is one man that never loses his temper. If you want a present for Christmas, one that is cheap and as good as you get downtown for the same money, go and consult his stock. He has made good and don't you forget it. There is no use in trying to imitate J. W. Lewis, or try to follow in his steps in a drive. There have bee. 1 kinds of drives since the drive he le for the Whitelaw Hotel. Mr. Le has the right conception, and when he gets at it he succeeds. He will have to take a hold of this business proposition that he initiated. My good friend Williams is an honest man and has succeeded with small enterprises, but this recent gigantic proposition is too much for friend Williams. John must go in the business and make the drive. *** Some of the local colored politicians Hot Breat Morning and Evening Home-Made Desserts Ice Cream and Soft Drinks of All Kinds Oysters in Every Style Hot Bread, Hot Cakes, With Every Meal.

It was a jollification of white Republicans only, and if any of the "black and tan" were present I did not see their names mentioned among the guests. *** Well, when the Democrats circulated that notorious fabrication against President-Elect Harding, the Republicans hasten to deny it. Who is the black man's friend? Is it a crime to have the blood of any nationality in your veins? The day will come, no doubt, when it will pay to be black. There was a lively time at the School Board last week. The Board adjourned its meeting for the sake of harmony. *** The show at the Howard last week, called the "Follies of 1920," was all right, but it was rather long. There was no discount on the singing and neither could you discount the costumes. They were pretty, all right, and many of the girls passed muster. FALLS CHURCH GLEANINGS.

A public meeting will be held on Sunday, November 28, at the Methodist Church to raise a sufficient sum to clear the indebtedness of the association. Every loyal citizen and member is expected to give to this great cause. Cases of men condemned to die are being tried; their lawyers must be paid. Must we as their brothers stand aside and let them suffer? Come, everyone, and bring a friend. Hear the messages of Lawyer T. L. Jones, of Washington, and Mrs. Marie Madre Marshall, also a lawyer. Mrs. Marshall made the address at the fair. * * * Mrs. Gladys Dorsey, of Washington, visited her, mother, Mrs. Josephine Martin, last Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Henderson, of Upperville, Va., mother and father of Mr. William Marshall, returned to their home after spending several days here. A number of friends from Alexandria paid a surprise visit to Mrs. Kate Fitzhugh Sunday afternoon of last week. A very pleasant afternoon was spent. Mesdames L. Marshall, B. Goines, E. Williams and V. Tinner attended the Odd Fellows' meeting at Vienna Sunday afternoon. Mr. Frank Marshall continues to improve slowly. *** Mr. Fred Dulany, of Atlantic City, visited his grandmother, Mrs. C. Granderson, Sunday afternoon. *** The destruction done in the schoolhouse on Hallowe'en night reflected anything but credit to the group of "long-pants" youths who committed the deed. The evidence given at the trial, which consisted of a number of conflicting statements and misrepresentations, gave all the evidences of guilt. At statement given out by one of the number the following day established the truth beyond a doubt. If we do well all that our hands find to do today, tomorrow will take care of itself. *** Think now and you will have more to be thankful for when the ibg day comes. T Medicine may mean anything, but TU-RA-HE Herbal and Vegetable Compound is the safest, purest, most reliable remedy you can buy. The TU-RA-HE treatment is a real helpful medicinal treatment. Osman's grandparents were herb specialists, and in their wonderful herb gardens you could find the rarest and strangest medicinal plants, and when they selected roots and herbs and made a medicine, it was sure to benefit suffering humanity. Herb remedies were used thousands of years, ago; the Bible reveals that the ancients used herbs and prayers with great benefit. So why be ailing, or half well? You can improve your condition by taking our great TU-RA-HE Indian Wigwam Treatment, get well and stay well. Take our special treatment for your particular ailment. 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. If natural or unnatural, it will surely benefit you. Come, let me get you well and make you happy, healthy, successful, and your life will be well worth living. Old Indian Herb Remedy Shop 1728 Thirth Street N. W. Store open now every day.

Store No. 4-1150 Seventh Street N. Store No. 5-804 P Kenneth Marceau, of 611 West 127th street, New York City, who is the treasurer of Keith's Alhambra Theatre at Seventh avenue and 126th street was on Monday, November 15, convicted in the Court of Special Sessions of violating Section 514 of the penal law of the State of New York. This section makes it a misdemeanor to discriminate in public places against people because of their race or color. The complainant against Marceau was Harold E. Simmelkjaar, the colored court officer attached to the Seventh District Municipal Court, 360 West 125th street, New York. Mr. Simmelkjaar alleges that at about 12:40 p. m. on August 23, in company with Victor B. Daly, director of research for the National League on Urban Conditions, he went to the Alhambra Theatre and asked Marceau, who was then in the ticket office, for a ticket for the following Wednesday matinee. Marceau accepted the proffered dollar-bill and gave the colored court officer a ticket entirely inclosed in an envelope. When Simmelkjaar and Daly examined the ticket after having left the box office they found that they had been given a balcony instead of an orchestra seat. They returned to the ticket office and asked Marceau to rectify the error, stating that what they wanted was an orchestra and not a balcony seat. The treasurer informed them that there were no seats left for Wednesday matinee, although it was only Monday, the first day in the week. The colored men then stepped to the edge of the theatre lobby and asked a white man, who gave the name of Joseph Longo, 215 East 116th street, to purchase an orchestra seat for them for the following Wednesday matinee. This Longo did and returned with a seat in the sixth row. Simmelkjaar and Daly then again returned to the ticket office and demanded to know why it was that colored people could get no seats for the Wednesday matinee, while white men could be sold accommodations for the sixth row. Simmelkjaar showed his gold shield of court officer and asked Marceau if he knew that he (Marceau) had committed a crime against the penal laws of the State of New York by practicing discrimination.

E. merely replied: "Sir, my instructions are not to sell tickets to colored people for the orchestra." Daly and Simmelkjaar went to the nearest city magistrate, got out the proper papers, and after a brief hearing on August 30 Marceau was held in bail for trial in the Court of Special Sessions. He faced trial in the latter court on Monday, November 15, before Justice Kernochan and two associate justices; and after a sensational trial was convicted and sentenced to serve ten days in the workhouse, with the alternative of paying a fifty-dollar fine. Both Simmelkjaar and Daly are well educated and hold responsible positions, and both were lieutenants in the World War in the United States Army. They have both been active in work for the civic uplift of the Negro in New York and are well known throughout the East. You are as large as you are, never as big as you think you are.

The ninth annual convention of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity is announced from December 27th to 30th, inclusive, at the seat of the Delta Chapter in Nashville, Tenn. It is the purpose of this convention to mark out a definite and constructive program for the college Negro of this country, based on the four cardinal principles of the fraternity—scholarship, manhood, perseverance and uplift. This fraternity has chapters extending from the New England States as far south as Atlanta, Ga—the Athens of the South—and as far west as Chicago University. It has the unique honor of including in its membership some of the most distinguished men of the Negro race, two of whom are recipients of the famous Spingarn medal. The annual convention opens in Nashville with an open meeting on the night of December 27th, at which time Dr. Carter G. Woodson, dean of the West Virginia Collegiate Insti- tute, will be the principal speaker. Other members of the fraternity who will deliver addresses during the conclave include Dr. E. E. Just, of Howard University, one of the founders of the fraternity, and Dr. C. V. Roman and Hon. J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn. Grand Chapter officials are devoting every effort to make this convention the most successful in the history of the fraternity. All well-wishers and members of the fraternity, both active and elected, are urged to be present. Every subordinate chapter is devoting its entire thought to the successful accomplishment of this great conclave. The slogan for all Omega man is, "On to Nashville, Tenn." DR: JOHN R. FRANCIS. Dr. John R. Francis is temporarily located at 902 T street northwest, where he will be pleased to see his patients. NEITHER Hardwick, Ga., November 18, 1920. Mr. W. Calvin Chase, Editor The Washington Bee. Dear Sir: The person who invented the word Negro was a woman hero. And she was a maiden lady of mature years, pale white complexion and had no indignation. Very respectfully, Wm| Oscar Murphy. What your readers would like to know is whether you are a white man, a colored man, on old man, a voting man, or merely a disturber of the muddy-minded thinkers of our common country. A Negro in this part of the States is one who has two legs or less and any color except spotless white and controls himself in any and all circumstances with becoming modesty. W O W The editor of The Bee is an American citizen, neither black nor white, neither old nor young, who has never voted in his life; born and reared in Washington, D. C., and a member of the voteless population of three or four hundred thousand population. He has always maintained that the word "Negro" is an invention of a white person or a person who is not identified with the colored race. MADAME A. J. SMITH. Madame A. J.
