The Washington Bee LOCAL POLITICIANS NOT SATISFIED WITH PERSONNEL OF THE INAUGURAL COMMITTEE. VOL. XLI. NO. 32 POLI LOCAL POLITICIANS WITH PERSON AUGURAL COM THE LOCAL POLITICIANS. Not Pleased With the Personnel of the Inaugural Committees—Political Nonentities Recognized. There is a murmur of dissatisfaction among the local politicians with the personnel of the inaugural committees. They claim that political nonentities have been recognized in place of the active Republican workers during the last campaign. They want to know who is responsible for the appointment of many of the has-beens whose names appear so prominently in the list of appointees. As a matter of fact, the inauguration will be in the hands of a few, and those whose names appear will be mere figureheads, especially the few colored members. Men who could really do something and who have the confidence and respect of the masses have been passed over. The way the committee was appointed is the way the has-beens will run the next administration. MINISTERS' CONFERENCE. Prof. George W. Cook to Retire From Howard University. The Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington and vicinity, Dr. M. D. Norman, pastor, and D. J. Loving, secretary, held its session of 1920 in the main auctorium of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R street between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, Dr. Norman, pastor. Very interesting reports were made by the various pastors as their names were called by the secretary. The glowing reports of Dr. Walter H. Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church; Dr. George O. Bullock, pastor of the Third Baptist Church, and Dr. Jos. P. Green, pastor of the Mt. Jezreel Baptist Church, attracted unusual attention. The order of the day was called at 12:30 p. m. sharp. President Norman appointed Dr. J. Harry Randolph, pastor of the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, to escort Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, president of Howard University, the orator of the day, to the pulpit, amid the cheers of the large congregation present. The Rev. S. Geriah Lamkins was selected to introduce Dr. Durkee to the audience. He was publicly complimented by Dr. Durkee upon the appropriateness of his remarks. Dr. Durkee started by saying that he had been a pastor for twenty-five years, and that he did not want to leave the ministry to take the presidency of Howard University, and would not do so until he was forced by the Lord to do so. He spoke of the conditions which obtained when he took charge of Howard, the remedies applied, the corrections made, the constructive work that was necessary to reorganize the forces and lay the plans for the greater Howard, now in the course of operation and expansion. It was a great treat and most inspiring occasion. It was a shock to many when Dr. Durkee said that it was his duty to announce with much regret that Prof. George W. Cook, who has been familiar on the "hill" for the past forty years, would not be there any longer than the end of this school year. He paid a high compliment to the noble character and scholarship of the professor, but said, that they would have to "let him slip." A vote of thanks was tendered Dr. Durkee on motion of Dr. Walter H. Brooks. Dr. Lamkins called the executive committee to meet at 11 a. m. next Monday to take up the question of the ordination of ministers in the District of Columbia. Dr. Lamkins of our success in the bagan e." He spoke of the great communion last Sunday; the great sermon at 3:30 p. m. by Dr. A. Wilbanks, and at 8 p. m. by Rev. Mrs. Mason Fry. Mrs. M. F. Thompson, of the Y. W. C. A., was introduced and invited the conference to the New Year reception of the association at the Phyllis Weatley Building, 901 Rhode Island avenue northwest, from 7 to 10 p. m. Saturday. Dr. W. A. Gibson, of Pennsylvania; Dr. R. W. Sturtevant, of Port Norris, N. J., and Dr. Pace, of Ohio, also were introduced. WALTER A. PINCHBACK. The New House Manager of the Republic Theatre—Popular and Progressive—What He Intends to Do for His People. Mr. Walter A. Pinchback, who has been selected as house manager for the Republic Theatre, to be opened on You street between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets northwest, hardly needs any introduction to the Washington public. For a number of years he was a clerk in the office of Recorder of Deeds, this city, where by his general ability, pleasing personality and absolute fairness to all he made many lifelong friends. He graduated from Harvard U. career, however, he gave up the practice of law and has since devoted his time to business enterprises and training. In 1915 he left Washington and went to New York, where he was connected with two of the largest mercantile houses in that city. Later he joined the forces of the William Fox Picture Corporation and remained with them nearly three years when he returned home to spend the rest of his days with his aged father and mother, Governor and Mrs. Pinchback. After his arrival here he attempted to secure employment with the two leading colored theatres, but being unsuccessful in that line he finally made connections with a large store downtown, with the view of getting experience enough to enable him to open a gent's furnishing store in the U street district. Learning that the Republic Theatre was to have two store rooms to rent, he called upon Mr. Makover, president of the Globe Amusement Company, which is to operate the theatre, to find out the possibilities of his securing one of them for the business he had in mind. While in the office a few days later the general subject of theatrical enterprises was discussed and Mr. Pinchback incidentally mentioned his former-experience with the Fox corporation. A few weeks later, when the position of house manager was tendered him, he took the matter under careful consideration and finally decided to abandon the gent's furnishing idea and again enter the theatrical field, as he saw a bigger opportunity before him. In talking with Mr. Pinchback the other day he said: "The moving picture industry is the fifth largest in the world and may yet be said to be in its infancy. There are now 16,036 picture houses in this country, with 8,000,000 seats, and 1,200 new houses are now in course of construction at a cost of $72,000,000. The day of the 5-cent movie house is gone. The public demands comfort and luxury, as well as amusement, and with that thought in view the Republic Theatre is being erected. We will give to the people of Washington the best that money and talent can provide. The house will be the finest of its kind in the WASHINGTON, D.C. SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1921 United States. It will provide employment for about twenty-five persons, all of whom will be colored, to say nothing of other benefactions that will enure to the good of the colored race." In selecting Mr. Pinchback as house manager, the Globe Amusement Company, which controls the Republic Theatre, has made no mistake, for the experience he has had will prove beneficial both to his employers and the patrons of the theatre, and we are sure he will have the good-will of his many friends and the public at large. In addition to being house manager, Mr. Pinchback and other colored men are stockholders in the corporation, and respectfully recommend same as a safe and profitable investment. LIEUT. CLIFFORD'S EFFORT. Lieut. J. Williams Clifford, president of the Monumental Pictures Corporation, recently, signed a contract with the Seaboard Film Corporation of New York City for world distribution of the Mopumental Monthly, a news reel. to be released each month picturing the achievements of the Afro-American in this country and the progress of the darker races of the world. "The educational and inspirational news that this news reel will give to the masses of colored people in this country is beyond estimation," said Lieutenant Clifford when interviewed by a newspaper correspondent. "Each that it will be the intention of the executives of the Monumental Pictures Corporation not only to place the picture in every house in this country catering to colored patronage, but also to work up the best foreign distribution possible for the film. An effort will also be made to have this film shown in white houses in the Northwestern and Northeastern parts of the country. News events, important gatherings and special affairs will be filmed along with the most prominent men of the hour and will be presented by highly trained men in the motion-picture industry. Lieutenant Clifford further stated that just as the Pathe News has brought to millions of Americans glimpses of different parts of the world and men and women who stand out pre-eminent as leaders in world affairs, the Monumental Monthly will be an American institution that will draw the masses of the Afro-Americans in this country closer together and fill them with pride and honor at the success and accomplishments of their brothers in educational, social, political, business and financial fields. Many congratulatory letters have been pouring into Mr. Clifford's office complimenting the executives of the Monumental Pictures Corporation on this notable achievement. The release of the first monthly has been announced for February 1, 1921. KU-KLUX KLAN. Federal Investigation is Demanded; Also Denial of Mailing Privileges. Police and Justice Departments Informed. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York City, recently issued a statement announcing the steps which had been taken in the fight against the Ku-Klux Klan. Mr. James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the association, signed the statement, which is as follows: "Colored people throughout the United States, as well as white Americans, are urged to join with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in fighting the ridiculous and sinister mummery which the Ku-Klux Klan is trying to make people believe represents Americanism. Colored people have reason to know that the Ku-Klux Klan represents terrorism and oppression; that it is organized to maintain so-called "To date the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has taken the following steps in its war on the Ku-Klux Klan: 1. The Postmaster General of the United States has been written to, asking him to refuse the privileges of the United States mails to the Klan for soliciting members. 2. Information having been obtained that the Klan intended to organize a branch in New York City, letters were written to the United States attorney for the district of New York, also the New York district attorney, the police commissioner and the mayor of New York and the governor of New York State. Assurances have been received that no branch of the organization will be tolerated in New York; and in a public statement Assistant District Attorney Alfred J. Talley scored the Klan as 'narrow-chested bigots.' 3. Officers of the United States Department of Justice and of the New York Police Department are co-operating with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to bring the facts about the unpatriotic and un-American Ku-Klux Klan into the light of pitiless publicity. "Colored and white people throughout the United States are urged to obtain all possible information about the draped in bedsheets and pillowcases. This information, if sent to the national office of the N. A. A. C. P., will be duly sent out to the American public so that they may know what kind of 'patriots' meet in secret to devise plans for violating the United States Constitution and the Federal criminal code. "The time has gone by when any group of ignorant, bigoted and violent men can wreak their will upon the masses of their fellow-citizens without a nation-wide chorus of protest and ridicule greeting their efforts. "JAS, WELDON JOHNSON, ANACOSTIA NEWS: It was pretty lively in this suburb during the Christmas holiday season. Many kept open house, entertaining their friends and serving the choicest of refreshments. House parties were numerous. All of the churches had special Christmas services with splendid choir music and special sermons by the various pastors. *** On account of the panel of jurors in Judge Stafford's court having been reduced to only five, the court has ordered a new panel of jurors to be drawn for January 15th, the third sitting in the condemnation proceedings for lands needed for public roads of the Barry Farm section. It is not necessary for property owners and tenants to appear at the next session of the court, scheduled for January 15th, as the announcement of the jury-commission'a names will appear in the daily papers and in The Bee. *** Nearly everyone reads The Bee in Anacostia. Dr. Shipley is the official agent of The Bee. Long before the arrival of The Bee on Fridays our readers are eager to secure their favorite paper. FALLS CHURCH GLEANINGS. Mr. Lethon Marshall is enjoying his visit with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Marshall. *** Mrs. Julia Taylor and children are the house guests of Mrs. Georgia Taylor. MUR --- to their home, after a pleasant sojourn in Philadelphia, Pa. *** The public school concert which was given at the Methodist Church last Thursday night was one of the best ever given in the town. The choruses, were beautifully rendered and the pronunciations and articulations in all the dialogues and recitations showed that the effort of the teachers for better talking and speaking have not been in vain. Each pupil received a box of candy as a gift from his teacher and the beautiful tree and Santa Claus helped to make it a real Christmas entertainment. Eleven dollars was cleared and the teachers take this public way of expressing their grateful thanks to both parents and friends who helped to make it a success. *** Mrs. Annie Allen spent Christmas with friends in Richmond. *** Miss Loretta Simms was the guest of. Mrs. E. B. Henderson for the holidays. The Christmas exercises at both the Methodist and Baptist churches were greatly enjoyed by all who attended, the little folks reflecting credit upon their teachers.

Mr. "Jack" Robinson was a gentle host to a number of his friends last Thursday evening. *** The Falls Church contributor extends to each subscriber the best wishes for a bright, happy and successful New Year. *** Mr. and Mrs. William D. Howard and Mrs. Mattie I. Talbert motored out from town and were the delightful dinner guests of Mrs. Lena Dixon. Mr. and Mrs. William Carpenter, of Ealls Church, were the dinner guests of Mrs. Emma Veiny, of the District of Columbia, on Christmas day. Mrs. Laura Tower was the dinner guest of Mrs. M. E. Carpenter on Sunday. Who's Who in Falls Church Some ministers dress in black and wear collars that open in the back preach the gospel on Sunday, marry the living and bury the dead. Ir Falls Church, however, the ministers of the gospel as a rule have been men who interpreted their calling to mean bettering the conditions for living in the community. Rev. Geo. Powell for more than twenty years has lived in and ministered to the temporal and spiritual wants of the people in this town. He completely fills the bill as a pastor of the Second Baptist Church. He in no less measure is an active citizen in the town. He is treasurer and a leading worker in the Fairfax County Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. He has lately been made chairman of the colored section of the inter-racial committee of the county. He is known as the "fighting parson." This appellation is due to his aggressive stand in matters of wrongdoing on the part of his own people and his strong opposition to encroachment by white people on the rights of colored citizens. .COMBINING FOR GOOD.

It was the regular month- ly mecting of the association and was presided over by Dr. Durkee, who is the president of that association. “After the regular.order of business, two most carefully prepared addresses were delivered, The first was by: Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of the university, who brought to the attention of his hearers in a-vivid and at: times ‘thrilling manner the history of Howard’ University, ‘its ‘present needs. and..its limitless ‘ potentialities. The story was told of administration struggles in securing’ means. with which to meet the astounding expan- sion of the university.

There are about 37,00Q colored: churches in the United States. These call, for at least 1,500 new ministers every year: Last year not more than 200. colored men with theological training entered the ministry. If the blind Jead the blind—what?

' WASHINGTON, D. C., JANUARY 1, 1921. WHY DISCRIMINATE? The personnel of the Inaugural Committee was announced last ‘week, and many active and representative Republicans were ignored. The names of many “has-been” and “want-to-come-back” Repub- -licans and Democrats weré ptublished.. Men who were most active in the last campaign’ were igngred. ane é Well, it is no more than The Bee expected. While. it is true that the. Miller faction of the Republican party.was turned down, this faction was. the most representative in the last campaign and ‘rendered more effective work. The campaign documents issued daily by this committee were very effective among the voters in this country; and from the published report of the personnel of the ‘Inaugural Committee, not a member of this organization has been placed on any of the committees. Loe LO . . The old “has-beens” will occupy. front seats in the next Repub- lican. administration—Democrats and’ Republitans—those who ‘were nonentities in the-Democratic administration. Why discriminate? : -PREPARE FOR THE INVASION. . The Southern Ku-Klux Klan drganization has given notice that - it will invade the North. . . ee The Bee’s advice to all good citizens, colored and white, is to prepare for the invasion.. The time has come for law and order to reign supreme, no matter; what the cost may be. Innocent colored citizens will no longer slecp ‘at their posts, but will have their eyes openand await the coming of the’ bold murderers from:the South. Let the Klan be the aggressors; and, when-they do, you know your'duty. The rights‘and: liberties of colored citizens are being crushed,.and the blood-thirsty murderers declare that they will not be impeded in their onward.march to-kill and murder the innocent :in cold blood: = ete Be RE : COLORED BUSINESS LEAGUE. Notes Furnished . by. Headquarters n_ -NationslRusipess. Leogue—of .- ‘Washington, D. C, ~ John, W. Lewis, president of ‘the ‘Washington ‘Colored-American Busi- ness League, addressed’a large group of Pittsburgh citizens at the’ Viatts i a 4° a School of Pittsburgh last week. on the subject of ‘ “Colored American Business Achievement.” 4 RT ie * Several business men of Haiti are planning to attend the. next annual session of the National Business League; which meets in Aflanta, Ga., August .17, 18, 19, 1921, for the pur- pose of presenting certain plans which will result in keeping the .Afro- American ~business men ‘of America informed concerning business: oppor- tunities in Haiti. One Haitiai busi- ness. merchant “would change the name of the American’ organization to ‘that of the International Business League. ~ tae The followiiig’ is ‘the, opinion of a member of the National. Business League who is giving close study: to present-day economic conditions in this ‘country: “It is ‘a mistake to at- tempt to-stop doing’ business’ during these stringent. times. All of the business men have got to keep on doing business. It would be very unfair and a greater mistake to at- tempt to cit down to the last word. Of ‘course, economy is -always the Proper thing to’ practice, but the wholesale lopping, off of every ex: pense will spell ruin for many. If you live, you must let live. Thé profits that so many business men have shared ‘during the .war times should be ysed-to somé small ?extent to keep alive the business world dur- ing the readjustment moments.” ee a The farmers” of Demopolis, Ala. have organized the “Black Belt Mar- keting Association.” ~Tlie purpose, of the organization is to get better mar- kets for colored producers, Fi : ee “The fact that a new. administration is coming in power may or may not be responsible for the sudden and unparalleled -boom that’ the_ colored American business has‘ taken in this city. Within the past six- months at least a dozen large Afro-American enterprises’ have .come_ itto.‘ exist- ence, foremost among them being a commercial bank-to be known as the Prudential, Commercial and Savings Bank, to be capitalized at~ $100,000. ‘Temporary offices have been opened at 1320 You-street’ northwest. The officers are: John R, Hawkins, presi- dent; Henry *P. Slaughter, -vice-presi- dent; R. H. ‘Rutherford, treasurer; C.

Ward, director, and Mr. Syphax, organist) held a very interesting anniversary exercise, with the following choirs participating: Metropolitan Baptist, Second Baptist, First Baptist of West Washington and one other choir. These five choirs accepted the invitation extended them, but other choirs failed to respond. The Shiloh choir gave a splendid report for the year's work, spiritually, morally and financially; and the spirit of full co-operation pervaded the atmosphere in Shiloh, even the pastor, Rev. Dr. Waldron, manifesting warm interest. Rev. Dr. Pinn, of the First Baptist Church, preached the sermon, and every choir in Washington should have heard him in his flights of eloquence and wit. But he did not fail to rap choir jealousy, trouble-makers and the drones common in choir work of the modern church of today. He praised the faithful, earnest and Christianly disposed choir members who seek only service to God and His cause. We all are aware of the tendency of many choirs to engage in fictional fights among themselves, causing the membership to become involved through personal friendships for one THE WASHINGTON COUNCIL OF SOCIAL WORKERS. Believing that the time is opportune for seeking a more intelligent acquaintance with our national ideals and social problems in general, and their relation to the colored American in particular, the colored paid social workers of this city have organized under the name The Washington Council of Social Workers. The following is the object of the new organization as set forth in the by-laws: "The object of this organization shall be to unite the paid social workers of the District of Columbia in one body, and to establish, develop and unify such association through conferences, research work and general exchange of experiences, and to promote in a general way cooperative relationships within the District." Formal organization was perfected at a meeting held in the lobby of the Phyllis Wheatley Branch, Y. W. C. A., 901 Rhode Island avenue northwest. Social workers from the Y. M. C.

The choir is the wrong place for the devil to start something in a chureh, but, nevertheless, he generally succeeds at the game. The choirs rendered excellent music, and Mr. Lawson's First Baptist choir, accompanying Dr. Pinn, sang splendidly, indeed. This is the first time we recollect a gathering of choirs for such a purpose, and would it not be wise to continue the movement? A choir forum or union in this city could work wonders if a way could be found to get them together. Let us hope it will be done. *** Mme. Ethel Hardy Smith, lyric soprano of Boston, passed through the city last week en route home from the Southland. The Public School Chorus rendered excellent music at their Christmas songfest in Dunbar. High School last Wednesday evening. **** Ella France Jones, styled the "silver-voiced lyric soprano," will make her debut in this city in January at the Second Baptist Church. She is a resident of Boston, Mass. and Visiting Nurses Association. By-laws were adopted and the following named persons elected as the first officers of the council: Lieut. Lawrence A. Oxley, president; Mrs. Eula Ross Grey, vice-president; Charles Flagg, treasurer; Miss Alice Ward Smith, secretary. Dr. Roscoe C. Brown, Mrs. Madeline P. Childs, Mrs. Laura B. Glenn, Charles A. Marshall and Lawrence L. Whaley, together with the officers named above, constitute the board of directors. Committees on membership, ways and means, program and speakers were appointed. A luncheon meeting will be held each month, and every effort will be made to have persons prominent in the national and community life give short lectures on some phase of social work having to do with local conditions and problems. Eventually it is planned to have the council function in an advisory capacity to the newly formed Washington Council of Social Agencies on all matters pertaining to the general city-wide social problem in its relation to the colored Americans in this city. Representing no one but themselves as individuals, but coming from all organizations and agencies doing social and welfare work in Washington, the members of the council hope to render signal service to the race and nation in the matter of intelligent approach and study of the many social problems, thereby encouraging better race relations in Washington. A town or city is but a composite picture of the inhabitants, its government the reflection of the ideals or lack of ideals of its people, its environment the study of their lives, habits and customs of those who abide therein and every resident is a contributor to the environment which is to influence the new generation. Believing this to be true, the Washington Council of Social Workers will endeavor to have the race in Washington recognize their responsibility, and if they do this the environment will be splendid and a bigger, better, safer and sane Washington will be the ultimate result. GARFIELD NOTES. Once more the congregation of Allen A. M. E. Church was favored with a very able sermon by Rev. W. H. Coston, ex-pastor of the church. His subject was "Behold a King shall rule over my people." Rev. Coston showed that he was master of the situation and held his audience spell-bound. The pastor, Rev. M. W. Traverse, wished all his members a merry Christmas and thanked them for the many gifts he received. Through the kindness of Mr. R. H. Beverly and others, Mr. Wm. R. Giles, leader of Allen A. M. E. Choir, was given a nice Christmas gift for his faithful services. Miss Bertha Howard, a school teacher in New Castle, Del., is home visiting her mother and friends. Mrs. Russell Carroll, also a teacher in Delaware, is home to spend the holidays. Mr. and Mrs. Watson, of Philadelphia, are stopping with Mr. and Mrs. William R. Giles, on Alabama avenue southeast. Mr. I. Brent, a member of the Garfield Dramatic Club, is home after spending several months in The which community is full of the Christmas spirit and many social functions are planned for the week.
