Washington Tribune

The Washington Tribune RACE RECOGNIZES THE DANGER OF ACCEPTING PRESIDENT HARDING'S ATTITUDE ON THE RACE QUESTION All the News That's Fit to Print RACE RECOGNIZ ACCEPTIN ATTIT Southern Press Shows that it is Not Favorable to the Negro and Endorses His Policies. The position of The Tribune on President Harding's speech in Birmingham, is sustained by editorials from several Southern papers. It is significantly remarkable that neither of the daily papers of Washington has had anything to say editorially on the President's Birmingham speech. The Age-Herald, of Birmingham said: "President Harding offered a practical, common-sense solution of the race problem. His views coincide with the best thought in this part of the country and will be cordially approved. He drew a sharp distinction between economic and social recognition." The Times Picayune of New Orleans questions the President's choice of subjects; it says: "The judgment displayed and his choice of subjects for the Birmingham occasion is questionable, or at least debatable. "Certain of his passages sound well, but are so vague that upon analysis his meaning is half in doubt." The Nashville Banner says: "The speech bore all the earmarks of a political maneuver, and was not spoken to the throngs before him, but to the East and the West." The Atlanta Georgian said: "The President is right. There can be no such thing as social equality between the whites and the blacks in this nation. Whenever the President talks of 'political opportunity' for the Negro, he will find that he is treading on somewhat difficult ground. Whatever degree of political right is granted to the Negro in the South, will be granted only after the Negro has proven himself thorny capable of employing it with intelligence." "The Negro has not been robbed of his political rights in the South, as a matter of fact. He still may vote; but community voting has been made difficult." We would ask the Georgian if it thinks the white people of Georgia demonstrate "intelligence" in preventing a million inhabitants of Georgia from exercising their constitutional right of suffrage? The Georgian further says: "However, since we are agreed that the best of whatever comes to the Negro must come of a lofty, intelligent and patriotic understanding of American ideals upon his part—then whatever comes to him of political advantage and opportunity will come to him that way, and that way only." These statements from four Southern dailies are the strongest evidence that The Tribune selected the high points in the President's speech that concerned our people. He tried to carry water on both shoulders but failed in the attempt. The speech was so adroitly worded that it has fooled the most of our people. Many of the self styled leaders have been completely hoodwinked by this speech and are ready to forgive and forget and let it go at that. But, there are deeper meanings of more far reaching import than a casual reading of the speech implies. An editorial in the Atlanta Constitution brings out the real import of the President's speech even stronger than The Tribune did last week. Read it carefully. "The president's position as to the political rights of the Negro cannot consistently be challenged, assuming, of course, that his intention was to consider the question in the broadest aspect of the 'political rights' of protection under the law, as a citizen. "We assume, of course, that is the meaning President Harding intended to convey: that he did not have in mind the overthrow of the safeguards of the white primary system and that in advocating 'political rights' he does not mean to impose Negro officeholders on white communities where such service would be distaste- ZES THE DANGER NG PRESIDENT H UDE ON THE R CONTEST GETS FINE START Business Men Big Factor in Making Contest Possible The Big Title Contest given by the Merchants of Washington through The Tribune, is proving very popular with the people of Washington. Suggested titles have been pouring into The Tribune's office all the week, coming from all sections of the city. Dean D. O. W. Holmes of Howard University sent in the first title. A second prize is announced this week, which will be a ticket to the game and a ticket to the big dance at Musical Fund Hall. The first prize is the goal much desired by all, it is a round trip ticket to Philadelphia and a ticket to the game. The contest will remain open until midnight Monday November 14th. There are no strings attached to it and no charges to enter; just send in your title and sign your name. See details on page two of this issue. The following merchants are the ones making this contest possible. They will also act as the judges: Dr. Geo. Herriott of Herliott's Pharmacy, 918 You St.; Mr. Addison Scurlock, the photographer, You St., N. W.; The Universal Coal Co., You St., N. W.; Mr. Howard, of the Capitol Haberdashery, You St., N. W.; Mr. J. H. Foster, Cleaner and Dyer, 11th St., N. W.; Lieut. Benj. Keyes, of the National Lunch Room, 7th St., N. W.; Blackwell Lunch and Subway Bar, 7th St., N. W.; Howard Theatre; Mr. Geo. W.

W.; Murray Bros., Printers; Hiawatha Theatre; Dunbar Theatre; and Foraker Theatre. The winners in this contest will be announced in The Tribune of November 19th. ful. That this is not his attitude is evidenced by the fact that as president he has publicly sanctioned a movement to recognize his own party in the South through white instrumentality and by actually deposing the Negro committees. "Further proof is added by the fact that, as president, he has consistently appointed only white men to office, not only in Georgia, but in other southern states. "This proves conclusively that it is not the president's purpose to impose Negro office-holders upon the South, for if that had been his position the logical sequence would have been the appointment of Negro republicans in the public service in this section. "Certainly, with this construction being thoroughly justified by the president's own official conduct in the matter of his own party reorganization in the South, there is not only no ground for complaint, but, conversely, every reasonable ground for approval, by our people, of the attitude expressed by the president in his Birmingham address." OPINIONS "I think the President's Birmingham speech was an outspoken pronouncement on the Race question. "If our American government will give to the Negroes equal political privileges, equal educational facilities and equal opportunities in economic relations, all of which they are justly entitled to, there will be no trouble or question about the Negroes working out all other details of their right relationship as American Citizens. "For these things we mean to contend without any compromise." "It is impossible for me to comprehend how any thoughtful mind can find that President Harding's Birming- WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1921 DEPARTMENT STORE OPENED The announcement of the opening of The Liberty Department Store located at 616 Louisianna Avenue, Northwest, in last week's Tribune drew a large crowd on the occasion of the opening, Tuesday. The opening of this store marks another step forward for the commercial endeavor of the colored people of Washington. The Liberty Department Store Corporation is a cooperative organization which enters a new line in the business field. They have purchased the property in which they are doing business so as to assure them of the permanent location. The building is a three story one, which has been remodeled for the purpose. On the first floor is located the gents' furnishings, yard goods, household goods, notions, and millinery departments. The second floor is occupied by the office, ladies' ready to wear, hats, and a restaurant. The goods are of first quality at a moderate price which places them within the reach of all. The Liberty Department Store offers the opportunity that we hear so much about in the way of entering business that will employ both our capital and people. There are six persons employed at the store, three men and three women. Mr. J. Hillery Taylor is the president of the corporation and manager of the store. The other officers are: J. W. Dennis, vice-president; John G. Chapman, secretary; J. R. Barlow, treasurer; J. R. Muckley, accountant. The store can easily be reached by all cars on Seventh Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. This is an enterprise that merits a special trip to see; consistent patronage of its departments may expand it into the large enterprise you would like for it to be. It requires patronage to increase business and furnish employment for large numbers of people. Will you visit the Liberty Department Store the coming week? ham speech offers anything of promise to the Negro in his claim for the privileges of American citizenship. "It is true that Mr. Harding does propose full political and economic opportunity for the colored people, but these proposals are in effect nullified by the accompanying reservations as regards the exercising of such opportunities in contact with white men. It should be further noted, with full significance, that the only illustration offered as a practical application of the policies was the reference to the voluntary segregation as to be found in some southern communities. "I regard as particularly unfair the injection of the issue of social equality as social assimilation is not a part of our activities. "Indeed we should view with positive alarm the prestige that President Harding has given this insidious issue which heretofore has only been associated with the lower type of Negro hater. "Let us develop the group spirit by all means. Not with any sense of 'eternal and inescapable difference' from other peoples, but in that we might more effectively demand our full rights as American citizens, and without special reservations." ADDISON N. SCURLOCK, (Photographer) "When we have educational, political and economic equality, for which the President asks, we have in our own hands the lever that will remove the obstacles in our pathway. Civil equality is the goal we seek. Judging from the criminal records in our great dailies, to many of our people, 'social equality' falsely so called, would be a descent rather than an ascent." (Rev.) C. M. TANNER, (Pastor Metropolitan A. M. E. Church) "The president's speech was fittingly delivered in the proper place to (Continued to Page 8) BIG GAMES SATURDAY Four big football games will be played this Saturday, viz: Howard & Shaw, at Washington; Lincoln & Hampton, at Lincoln; Tuskegee & Talledega, at Birmingham; and Wilberforce & Roger Williams, at Chicago. The Tribune has made special arrangements to get the returns from these games. These results can be had by calling The Tribune office, Phone, N. 6554 w. With the exception of the Howard came, which will be local, the returns should begin to arrive about six o'clock for the eastern games and seven o'clock for the western games. COLOR QUESTION BIG ISSUE AT THE ARMS MEETING COLOR QUESTION BIG ISSUE AT THE ARMS MEETING European Society Maintained at the Expense of the Colored Peoples of the World. By Herbert J. Seligmann (This is the first of a series of articles on the Armament Conference in Washington written specially for the colored press by the author of "The Negro Faces America," who is now publicity director of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.) What is it that prime ministers, generals, diplomats, admirals of the governments of Europe will discuss in Washington when the Armament Conference begins there on November 12? It is nothing less than whether war is to be permitted to wipe out what we know as civilization. Europe has been shattered by the armies and navies which were to "guarantee peace." Starvation stalks in Russia and Central Europe. There is hunger, misery and unemployment throughout the world. As yet, no one knows whether mankind can "get together," whether men can salvage the wreckage that world war has left in its wake. The young manhood of an entire generation was blasted, poisoned, blown to shreds on the battlefields of Europe. Disease, famine and revolution confront the masses who survive the war. We know now that armies and navies do not prevent war. They help to bring it on. A fight is much more likely to occur when men carry loaded pistols on the nip. So the "Disarmament Conference" in Washington represents hope. Thruout the world men know that if life is to be made tolerable and decent, war must be made a thing of the past. It is this hope which the Washington conference represents. What is the especial interest of the Washington conference for the colored races of the world? Millions of the colored races of the world have been held in subjection by those very armies and navies, which the white governments finally turned against each other. Every nation taking part in the Washington Conference has committed crimes against weaker colored peoples. Great Britain has held India. She fought China to force the Chinese to buy that terrible drug, opium. Even now there are uprisings in India which are being put down in bloody combat. France has imposed her rule on Indo-China. Belgium, Germany, France, Great Britain have killed, robbed, exploited the natives of Africa, Haiti for five years was subjected to the bayonets of United States Marines. This robbery of the weak has been known as imperialism. European governments reached out for territory in which they could obtain raw materials cheap and make the natives buy manufactured products at a high price. The excuse was often that it was necessary to "civilize" the natives or maintain "order." What the men in control of the white governments were after, was profit, money. And the most effective part of the transaction were armies and navies. In reaching out for undeveloped territory, the white governments came into conflict.

INDEPEND CONGRESSMAN DYER TO SPEAK Congressman Leonidas C. Dyer, who introduced the Anti-Lynching Bill in the present Congress, will speak at the mass meeting for the Phyllis Wheatley branch of the Young Women's Christian Association, to be held at the Dunbar High School, Sunday November 13, at four o'clock. The drive of the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. will begin Tuesday the 8th, and continue ten days, or thru the 18th, of this month. The goal set for this ten-day effort is $20,000. A challenge, therefore, is extended the supporters of the local Y. W. C. A., to maintain the excellent building which was given them as a result of the big drive during the war period. The drive will be initiated Sunday the 6th, with a program at the Asbury M. E. Church with Mr. William Stevenson, general secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association, as the principal speaker. RAISES CONTRIBUTION TO ARMS CONFERENCE FUND Rev. C. M. Tanner, pastor of the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church has raised $25 which he has deposited in the Industrial Savings Bank in the name of the Arms Conference Fund. This is a step in the right direction. If we expect to receive tickets and favors from the Committee which has charge of the entertainment of the visitors here, we should subscribe to the fund of $25,000 which is being subscribed by the business and professional men of the District. The account is open for anyone to add to it at the Industrial Bank, corner 11th and U Streets, N. W. Let the pastors who may take contributions for this purpose deposit the money to the credit of this fund at the Industrial Bank and they will receive a receipt from the Committee for whatever amount they can raise. There is only a short time left to get in on this fund. Get busy Sunday and do your bit. FIRST PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENT CONFIRMED The Senate Thursday, confirmed the appointment of the Rev. Solomon Porter Hood, of Trenton, N. J., as Minister to Liberia. This is the first Presidential appointment of a colored man to be confirmed by the Senate. Henry Lincoln Johnson was the first name sent up, but his appointment was held up because of charges having been filed which resulted in an investigation, the result of which has not been made public. BELL'S TEA ROOM Two weeks ago, Mrs. Jessie Bell and her sister, Mrs. Marguerite Scott, opened the Bell's Tea Room, at 1928 Ninth Street, Northwest, with the view of serving salads, sandwiches, pastries, ice cream and soft drinks. The announcement of the opening of the Tea Room appeared two weeks ago in The Tribune and business began coming their way. Madame Scott said that they had surpassed their expectations already and that each day they noted an increase over the preeding day; that Sunday's business doubled the preceding Sunday's business. Three words enter into the phenomenal success of this new venture; they are: Quality, real, home-cooked food of the best seasoning insures the quality; Service, is the real motto of the sisters running the Tea Room and their progressive method of Advertising his brought the people to their place and the quality of food served will hold them. Private parties receive special attention. The theatre goers find the Bell Tea Room just the place they have longed for. Circulation Books Open To All D AND HENRY NSON OPPOSE ENT MOVEMENT In Letter to Chairman Pollard they Plead to keep the Race Following Lilly- White Republican Leaders The calling of the Pollard conference here last Tuesday threw consternation into the camp of "the political stevedores" who have assumed the self-appointed political leadership of the race. The political situation in Virginia and Kentucky has attracted nationwide attention. The calling of the conference for the first of November, by Chairman Pollard, of Richmond, stirred up the office holders and office seekers here in the Capital to the extent that two of them wrote Mr. Pollard a lengthy letter beseeching him to reconsider the matter and call off the conference. However, there was held a conference Tuesday, at the Whitelaw Hotel by representatives of 18 states, with the view of calling a Convention later. Mrs. Grace Evans, of Terre Haute, Ind., a member of the Committee of 48, was among the persons attending the conference. In an interview with The Tribune, she said: "I am surprised at the office Henry Lincoln Johnson is maintaining here in the Capital. It is a disgrace to the race for it is filthy, unsanitary and worse than a stable. I told him so, and Mr. Johnson appeared dazed; he walked the floor, wringing his hands and talking incoherently. I cannot understand what is the matter with him." Mr. H. H. Price, editor of the Republican, of Richmond, called at Mr. Johnson's office while Mrs. Evans was there and was practically ordered out by Mr. Johnson. A letter from "Link" Johnson and Perry Howard shows how determined they are to hold on to the present Administration, and how anxious "Link" is for the job of Recorder, altho he has said that he was not seeking office nor would he accept a position if offered him. The letter, which is very lengthy, begins thus: HEADQUARTERS FOR RACIAL LEGISLATIVE RELIEF 1216 PENNSYLVANIA AVE., N. W. WASHINGTON, D. C. October 21, 1921 Hon. Joseph R. Pollard, Attorney-at-law, Richmond, Virginia. Our Esteemed Friend: We fully realize the struggles and trials thru which you and other loyal Republicans of Virginia have passed and are passing because of your exclusion from the ranks of the alleged old line Republican party, who are dubbed "illy-white's." We realize the spirit that imbued you in trying to keep the jewel of justice upon the altar of freedom in consonance with the spirit of the founders of the Republican party. We fully realize that in your effort to get group action, you are actuated, if not impelled, by the highest motive; and that as an outcome of this effort to get national group action, you called a meeting, which, we are advised, has for its purpose the organization of a national party, the composite of which shall be of our racial group. We confess to you that this movement has occasioned us serious thought and many sleepless hours. As a result of this serious thought and meditation, we have reached the conclusion that if this be the purpose of the meeting, which you propose to convoke, it is unintentionally a mistake.

Much to the surprise of the local players, the visiting team seemed to have taken on added strength and new vigor, almost swamping the home team. In the billiard match the visitors won two of the three matches played. Mr. Burrell beat his Baltimore competitor to the tune of 101 to 63. Fred Byrd and E. Smith were beaten by close scores. In the bowling, the team captained by D. D. Rogers finished on top. Little Jackson had the highest score of the evening, finishing with 112. In the volley ball game, due largely to the spectacular and rare playing of Fred Ramsey, his team won by a score of 3 to 2. The losing team led by Mr. Anderson fought gamely and deserve much credit for playing such a strong team as their contenders, so closely in each game. Many spectators witnessed all the events. There was much life during every moment from 2 to 11 p. m.

Layton came with her usual good tidings. With her forcible well-pointed speech, she impressed upon the parents the necessity of good home training, of sending the child to school and the co-operation of the parent and teacher. The medicine of advice given by Mrs. Layton, if taken as directed will surely produce results and make the boy and girl, the man and woman of to-morrow. Arlington county will then feel that the money spent in educating these Negro boys and girls has not been wasted. Friday, October 28th, Lawyer John H. Jackson of Alexandria, and Washington addressed the parents and on Sunday the pastors of the several churches preached on education and co-operation. The grim messenger of death visited Halls Hill two fold. Dr. and Mrs. Ernest Snowden lost their little 6 months old son, which leaves them childless.

A WORTHY APPEAL To Pastors of Churches, Fraternal Organizations and Civic Associations: We respectfully invite your attention to the fact, that the JIM CROW case of Fred U. Brooks and William A. Walker, vs. the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Railway company, which Messrs. Brooks and Waller, won in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, is now pending in the Court of Appeals. Proper attorneys fees and the expense of printing a brief in reply to the brief of the railway company will require a great deal of money—the exact amount of the costs cannot at present be estimated.

Every ten years, the Methodist churches of the World hold what is called an Ecumenical Conference, alternating between the Eastern and Western Sections. This year the meeting was held in London, England, where Wesley, the father of Methodism began his work. There were present at this meeting over five hundred delegates from all parts of the world. Among them were fifty colored delegates most of whom were from the United States as representatives of the African Methodist Episcopal, the African Methodist Episcopal Zion and the Colored Methodist Episcopal Churches. Taking advantage of the opportunity afforded them, these delegates arranged so as to leave America in time to make an extensive tour of Continental Europe. An itinerary was mapped out under the direction of Mr. John R. Hawkins, Financial Secretary of the A. M. E. Church. Leaving here early in August, the party went direct to Paris which was used as a base from which they made short trips to various parts of France especially that part covering the battle fields of the late World War. It was indeed impressive to go over these scenes and get some idea of the terrible consequences of the most disasterous war the world has ever known, and to see with what spirit of determination and zest those who suffered the loss of the accumulations of a life-time and all that was dearest in their home life, are applying themselves to the task of rehabilitation. While there are sections that are still barren and many villages completely wiped out, it is remarkable to note how rapidly the people of both France and Belgium are reclaiming to request your congregation to give us a donation, as we desire to contest the case to a successful conclusion for the benefit of the RACE.

From France, the party went down into Italy visiting such historic places as Milan, Florence, Pisa, Venice, Genoa, Naples, Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii. From Italy they went across the Alps into Switzerland and on to Belgium and back to England in time for the meeting of the Conference. One need not attempt to tell in detail of the many things of value and interest to be learned on a trip of this kind. It is very evident that the entire Continent of Europe is undergoing some very radical changes. While there have been wars following wars, the last great struggle has evidently caused a new awakening in the consciousness of most of the peoples of the world. There is a general feeling of unrest and disquietude that begars description and the problem of satisfying these various elements in the make up of the national affairs is one that will put to the test the ablest statesmen. In England the situation is particularly acute. The most outstanding feature is that of the Irish question and all England will breathe easier when there is an adjustment of the problem. The factor of the unemployed is even greater in London than it is in our own country. Thousands march the streets every day and hold meetings where the feeling is intensified so as to make it necessary for the government to call out its reserve force frequently to allay trouble. The work of the Ecumenical Conference was most inspiring and showed that in the church work of the last decade, the Methodist churches have made wonderful progress in all branches of their work. All of the returned delegates express themselves as being much pleased and benefited by this trip, but are equally as delighted to get back home to their own country and again be at work among and for their own peple.

The next meeting of the club will be held in Library Hall Nov. 18 at 8:30 p. m. The Arkansas Club has elected new officers for the year 1921-922. With the present corps of efficient officers, Arkansas hopes to have a stronger club. The officers are as follows: Miss Zenobia A. Alexander, president; Mr. J. H. Washington, vice-president; Miss Dorothy Gillam, secretary; Mr. Howard C. Scroggins, treasurer. The collegiate branch of the N. A. A. C. P. at Howard has organized. The attendance at the first meeting exhibited the students support of such an organization. The young man in college today is the race leader of tomorrow. It is well that he is awakening to his racial responsibilities, and feels the burden which is on his shoulders. A strong N. A. A. C. P. is expected this year. The year's program is now being mapped out. The officers elected are as follows: Mr. J. Wycliffe Keller, president; Miss Evelyn Lightner, vice-president; Mr. J. Edward Moore, secretary; A. A. Manney, corresponding secretary; Robert Mantz, treasurer. STUDENT JOURNAL The student body has seen fit to establish again the "student Journal." Four years ago the "Record" took the place of the "Journal" but as the "Record" is a faculty and Alumni publication, it is the purpose of the student body to start the "Journal" again, owned and controlled by the students. The officers elected are as follows: Mr. H. Lee Moon, editor-in-chief: Mr. Ward Nichols, business manager; Mr. H. Lee Dudley, assistant editor; Mr. Johnny E. Smith, assistant business manager; Mr. Joseph Nicholson, advertising manager; Mr. B. H. Williams, circulation manager. On Friday Oct. 21, the sophomore Dental class held its initial meeting of the year, at which officers were elected. The sophomore Dental Class is one of the "big" classes of the Medical Department, its enrollment being upward of seventy students. It may be remembered in passing that the present sophomore Dental class was the one class that triumphed last year in football and baseball, over the various classes of the medical and academic departments of the University. All members of the class are cooperating, in order to make this year a banner one for the class, both in scholastic and athletic achievement. The officers elected are as follows: Mr. B. B. Young, president; Mr. Turner P. Ransom, vice-president; Mr. Ezekiel C. Smith, secretary; Mr. W. J. Bacon, treasurer; Mr. B. R. Magee, chaplain; Mr. Junius E. Fowkles, sergeant-at-arms; Mr. F. C. Henderson, critic. Freshman Pharmaceutical Class Holds First Meeting On Thursday, October 27, the Fresh- Jabs and Sidesteps JOE WALCOTT "BARBADOS DEMON September seems to have been a favorite month for administering the sleep potion. In the last issue I told about "Little Chocolate" now I will mention another clever fighter, Joe Walcott better known as the "Giant Killer" from his ability to beat men weighing any where from twenty to thirty pounds more than himself. Walcott was the peer of welterweights and even to this day no one has been able to follow the pace he set in the early nineties. This particular fight occurred in Boston at the Central A. A. Club, Sept. 21, 1903. The bout was scheduled for fifteen rounds but terminated in the fifth round. Tom Carey and Walcott had met before and Tom had put up a very good showing but in this scrap he seems to have lost his punch. After landing several body blows on Joe during the third and fourth rounds, he started the fifth, in whirlwind fashion, when suddenly Walcott let go two hard rights to Carey's stomach and that was the end, knocking Carey down and out. A writer in the Chicago Tribune said that Flex Rickard, New York fight promoter, claims the American public did not care to see Dempsey and Wills fight and he thought it would be a poor drawing card. Perhaps so, but it seems that if Wills and Gunboat Smith could draw 12,000 people in Cuba, it is pretty certain that Dempsey and Wills would fill any arena they could build in the U. S. Really, I consider it a very poor argument for not trying to bring the best opponent that could be found for the champion. Instead Rickard goes and digs up poor old Jess Willard. The New York Commission bars the following holds in wrestling: toe, scissors, and head. The referee is also empowered to disqualify any wrestler who indulges in the following unfair methods: striking, scratching, gouging, or any display of temper. Panama Joe Gans has finally won a fight; defeating Nero Chink in twelve rounds Saturday night in New York. Terry Martin and Abe Goldstein fought a fast and snappy draw Monday night before the Brooklyn Exhibition Association. Martin weighed 118 pounds and Goldstein 114 pounds. Panama Joe Gans repeats with another victory Monday night, at the Olympic Athletic Club, Harrisburg, Pa.; defeating Herman Miller (white) in ten rounds. man Pharmaceutical Class held its first meeting of the year. The election of officers resulted as follows: Mr. C. C. Bruin, president; Mr. M. Birch, vice-president; Miss C. B. Childress, secretary; Miss L. Mildred Geter, assistant secretary; Mr. A. R. Greene, treasurer; Mr. James Amey, chaplain; Mr. George Robinson, sergeant-at-arms; Miss Laura Martin, critic; Mr. W. L. Ferguson, journalist. Two permanent committees have been appointed for the year: Executive and Programme committees. The executive committee consists of the following members of the class: Mr. C. C. Bruin, chairman; Mr. Maceo Birch, Miss E. B. Childress, Miss L. Mildred Geter, Miss Laura Martin, Mr. W. Greene, Mr. C. Cinclare Christy, and Mr. Wm. S. Cousins. The Programme committee is composed of the following members of the class: Mr. William Vanhook, chairman; Mr. G. W. Robertson, Miss L. Gilliam, Miss J. Coby, and Mr. C. Travis. The Freshman Pharmaceutical Class realizing that a solid foundation is the cornerstone of success, has begun this year with the avowed determination of achieving a place of honor and usefulness in the University. THE NORTH EASTERN CLUB The North Eastern Club elects the following officers for the year 1921-1922: Mr. Frederick D. Robb, president; Miss Ellen S. Maury, vice-president; Miss Pearl M. Clark, secretary; Miss Sarah E. Lewis, treasurer; Mr. James E. Jones, chaplain; Mr. Howard Smith, sergeant-at-arms; Mr. W. M. S. Maize, journalist.

VAUDEVILLE EDGAR MARTIN'S JOYLAND GIRLS New Songs—New Costumes—New Comedy TOTAL ADMISSION—22 CENTS The Stage and the Screen (By Jay Bee) The Stage and the Screen (By Jay Bee) VAUDEVILLE AS YOU LIKE IT AT THE HOWARD Thirty-nine Artists on Variety Bill The Howard management, in an effort to more fully convince their patrons of their sincerity in trying to please, offered another vaudeville bill of big time caliber this week, which included thirty-nine performers. There was a notable increase in the attendance this week over that of last week for which the management seems grateful. The advent of the new type of vaudeville that is being offered at the Howard is one of the burning topics of the day. Many favorable comments are being heard on all sides. The bill opened with a one-reel Pathe educational film which was followed by "Step On IK". J. Rosamond Johnson's sketch, featuring clever little "Sambo" (Edgar Connors) of Red Moon fame, Ida Forsythe and John Vaughner. The number is very pleasing and the act got away nicely for an opener. Pasquale and Reno, excellent musicians, with violin and accordion, rendered several delightfully pleasing selections and they were recalled several times. The "Mimic World of 1921" a miniature revue, comprising twenty girls and two men, was a whole show within itself. This number, though somewhat long-winded, embraced several novelty features that were well received, but the entertainment showed ear-marks of being pulled too soon. A little work with the axe will render this number a very pleasing attraction. Senna and Stevens, well-known vaudevillians, offered an amusing diversion that obtained many laughs for them. Gus Stevens, formerly a female impersonator, but appearing in this sketch as a Chink, with the assistance of Senna (Ed Peat) formerly of the Dandy Dixie Minstrels, "knocked 'em cold." John Peters and his "Bandana Steppers," a bunch of ginger boys and girls closed the bill. This is an exceptionally clever act. They responded to several encores. Dandy Show. RAIN FAILS TO DAMPEN ARDOR OF HALLOWEEN MOBS Holiday Crowds Fill Amusement Places Jupiter Pluvius and his rain-barrel contingent tried their darndest to drown the enthusiasm of the Halloween revellers, last Monday night, but no one gave the heavy down pour of rain any concern. The goblins, witches and rag-muffins swam to the various house parties, dance halls and theaters, where the compliments of the season were exchanged between friends. Old men, old ladies, young men, young ladies, and kiddies too, were seen "all done up" in the most grotesque "riggins." The dance promoters reaped a harvest because of the inclement weather, which drove many of the celebrators to seek shelter in the dance halls. Many attended the theaters in their costumes. The Royal Roosters, under the management of little "Jimmy" Fletcher of Alamac fame, filled the Convention Hall to the "gills." The wriggling masses of humanity, not being able to dance were content to just glide and slide from one side of the hall to the other. Mrs. Gertie Wells-Snowden made her first appearance in public since her illness and she was at her best. The Orientals under the management of Messrs. Matthews and Tucker, were also engaged in the sardine business at the Murray Casino. "Constable Cholly Lee" assisted by nineteenth of the law and officer Davis were right there for you when it came to that order preserving stuff. "FOOLISH MATRONS" TO BE REPEATED AT THE DUNBAR Mr. Raymond H. Murray, manager of the Dunbar Theatre, who has had the opportunity of seeing many pictures in the course of the twelve years he has been managing and studying the "game," in an open letter announces that the demand for the repeating of "Foolish Matrons" has been so great that the production will be shown again at the Dunbar on Nov. 7th and 8th. His letter follows: To Theatre Goers: The moving picture public has been educated to the point that it has become very critical as to the character of pictures it desires to see. This fact has been demonstrated by the large attendance at the Dunbar and Hiawatha Theatres during the showing of such pictures as "Man, Woman and Marriage," "Gypsy Blood," "The Kid" and other notable attractions. Having this in mind, and in response to numerous requests, we will repeat "Foolish Matrons" at the Dunbar Theatre on Monday and Tuesday, November 7th and 8th. The title of this picture is somewhat misleading since it does not fully indicate the character of the picture nor the lesson it brings. To those who were fortunate enough to see this picture it needs no comment, but to those who did not see it, I beg to state that this picture is the BEST SINCE "The Miracle Man." I can truthfully say that I have never seen a better picture in my twelve years in the picture business. The great underlying theme of the tale is marriage and while it is not intended as a preachment, it is bound to carry its message to the many young men and women who are facing the same problems as the players in the production. This is a picture every wife, and every woman who hopes to become a wife, should see. It tells vividly and impressively the cause of most of the separations and divorces which befall married couples. One patron who saw this picture told us that this picture tells the exact story of a young married woman very well known in this city. If you like good pictures be sure and see this one—Dunbar, Monday and Tuesday, November 7th and 8th. R. H. Murray, Merl Stage Whispers (By Quentin) Only two shows playing in New York have had longer runs than "Shuffle Along." Some record, I'll say. The Tasmanian Four is booked over the Sun time for ten weeks. The Seven Musical Spillers played at the Apollo Theatre, Chicago, opening the bill, and were well received. Met Charles Olden the other night in Chicago. He is scoring heavily with the Dunbar Players. (Continued on page 5) THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1921 Football & Sports Howard Downs W. Va. in Gruelling Battle Charleston, W. Va., Oct. 29—Before the largest crowd that has this year witnessed a football game in the Laidly Field in Charleston, the Howard University, of Washington, D. C., by means of full back Payne's educated toe caused the downfall of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute eleven in a score of 3 to 0. The game was one of the hardest fought gridiron battles that the Howard eleven has entered for many years. It was the first time the Institute eleven has been defeated at home. Howard's win from the West Virginians marks the fourth game played during the season, from each of which she has emerged victorious and unscored upon. Howard suffered the loss of one of their best men, when Williams the star left end, was tackled from the rear and in falling, fell on his leg, which resulted in breaking it in two places. Molson for Howard was also injured and may be lost to the team for the rest of the season. At the opening of the game the Institute kicked off to Howard and the men receiving the ball returned it ten yards. On the first play a penalty of 15 yards was inflicted for unnecessary roughness. The play was punctuated by frequent penalties all the way through. The prettiest run of the day came when Drewery, left half back for the Institute, intercepted a pass and ran 45 yards, nearly to the goal line. Institute failed to put the ball over the goal line when they had it inside of the ten-yard line. Holland, the giant end of the Institute team, was the individual star for Institute. His puntin was a feaure. He also played a wonderful defensive gam. When the Howard eleven gained possession of the ball in the first quarter, it ploughed through the line of the Institute team and in 14 plays gained six first downs for a distance of 64 yards. But the ball on the Institute's 25-yard line, the West Virginians held the "Blue and White" for three downs, Payne then dropped back for the field goal and put the ball fairly between the uprights, three feet above the cross bar. Howard tried two or three other drop kicks but all failed to go for a score. Institute missed a chance to tie the score when a field goal attempted from the 25-yard line by Holland missed the upright by three feet. The ball was kicked from such an angle that the star booster for Institute had about three yards of the space between the uprights to kick at. Two other attempts at a goal from greater distances failed, one from the 50-yard line. Not a substitution was made by either team until the injury of Williams in the third quarter caused him to come out and Walker went in in his place. Crawford was then substituted for Melton for Howard. The weight and the speed of the Howard team was really the cause of the West Virginia warriors' downfall. But on the whole the teams were evenly matched. During the second half, the game became a punting duel in which Holland out-kicked Payne. The play during the last two periods was nearly always near the center of the field. Several times it looked like one or the other of the teams would score, but the ball never crossed the goal line except when it was kicked. Then it was brought back to the 20 yard line. The game was witnessed by probably 3,500 fans, both white and colored. SUMMARY: Howard West Va. Williams . . . L.E. Holland Fuller, (Capt) . . . L.T. Brannen (Capt) Smith . . . L.G.

Lincoln Defeats Wilberforce in Thrilling Game "The Butterfly GIrl" WITH KING BAGGOT BIG V COMEDY (By Staff Correspondent) Wilberforce, Ohio—Before a gathering of nearly 4,000 wildly partisan fans, in one of the most spectacular games ever seen on the "Force" gridiron, a typical fighting Wilberforce team failed to stop Lincoln's forward progress in the direction of victory, last Saturday, October 29, on a rain-soaked field. Coming along with a rush that was not to be denied in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter, Lincoln increased its advantage from 1 to 14 points and conquered Wilberforce by a decisive score of 20 to 6. Monday and Tuesday REPEATED BY REQUEST HOBART BOSWORTH AND DORIS MAY in THE FILM "THE MASTER OF THE MASTER" BY JOHN M. HARRIS, WITH A FILM BY JOHN M. HARRIS, AND A FILM BY JOHN M. HARRIS. It was practically an even thing for three periods, with Lincoln clutching the lead by nothing more than a goal from touchdown. The Pen.sylvania lads got the jump on their rivals by counting their first score early in the third quarter. Starting from their own 30-yard line, the Lincoln team, using their famous Dartmouth shift and going at top speed, marched the ball down into the shadow of the Wilberforce goal posts, a splendid run by Johnson supplied the real punch for this touchdown. Furthermore with the ball some scant three yards off, it was Johnson again who fought and battered his way across the line for a touchdown, after two unsuccessful attempts by Brown and Parr. Lincoln's lead was boosted to seven when Crudop completed the goal. "Fight, Wilberforce, Fight!" was the cry that arose from the "Force" cheering section. Wilberforce fought. Lincoln after getting the ball as far as the center of the field, lost it on downs. Then Mumford the "Force" quarterback, worked his way into the open where he took a 15-yard pass from "Red" Garvin. On the very next play "Suds" Sedwick punted on an side kick for Wilberforce over Lincoln's goal line from the 45-yard line. Garvin the crafty, auburn haired, half-back, being on side when the ball was kicked, dashed down the field with the speed of a high-powered Stutz and dove on the ball behind Lincoln's goal line for a touchdown. The play was so completely executed that it caught the Lincoln team sound asleep, indeed Quarterback McClain and Right Guard Green of Linc. "squawked" and "squabbled" with Referee Brown full 3 minutes before they were convinced that the play was legal. Hurd kicked the goal but it was not allowed because he was not in the game at the time the touchdown was scored.

WALTHALL in "The Splendid Hazard" UNIVERSAL JEWEL COMEDY Friday and Saturday THE BIG HORSE RACE PICTURE Following the last kick-off came the most sensational play of the game and the thrill was furnished by wee Scottie Brown and Mumford. Mumford caught the ball from the kick-off standing on his own five yard line, and then began a long jaunt on the right side of Lincoln's line for a long gain. INTERNATIONAL NEWS SATURDAY ONLY—CHAS. CHAPLIN in 'PAWNSHOP MATINEE—Children 10 cents Mumford had run the ball for 25 yards. The two plays that followed netted Wilberfore a first down but was penalized 20 yards for roughness. This penalty evidently broke the morale of the "Force" team, for following that Lincoln uncorked several long forward passes which netted them two more touchdowns by Brown and McLain. Brown missed the goal after the second touchdown but kicked the goal after the third. Open daily 6 p. m. Thursday, Matinee 1 p. m. Program for Week, Nov. 6th SUNDAY—Pearl White in "THE WHITE MOLL."

The bulldog spirit of Wilberforce checked Lincoln's most serious attempts to score throughout the first half, after they had been put to a disadvantage by the loss of their star halfback and punter Hurd, through injury at the outset of the game. Time and again Lincoln rushed thru them, and twice were five yards from the goal on first down. Wilberforce braced again and Lincoln was hurled back.

The newly elected president is also financial secretary of Post Office Relief Association No. 2, and will use his utmost energies to make the local a hundred per cent one, and the pride of the office. At the installation, Nov. 15, a smoker will be given, at which time it is hoped all factional differences will be buried. The teachers of the John A. Logan School gave a surprise reception to their retiring principal, Miss Florence J. Smith, Saturday, October 29, in the Kindergarten room of the building from 2 to 5 o'clock. The kindergarten room presided over by Mrs. V. W. Dishman and Miss J. E. Miles was tastily decorated in keeping with the season. The banquet table was laden with the most palatable delicacies of the season. Mr. J. C. Bruce, supervising principal of the 13th Division, was master of ceremonies. An unique feature of the occasion was the presentation of a photo folder by each teacher. The photos were taken by Mrs. R. G. Moore, pasted on the folder and artistically decorated. Upon the inside of each folder, each teacher, the supervising principal and Assistant Superintendent had written a sentiment in letters of gold. Faculty of the School: F. J. Smith, principal; R.

W. for club-room purposes. The rooms on this floor are large, well lighted and elaborately furnished, and will afford a suitable meeting place for the club. The Banneker was organized in November, 1920, by a group of aggressive young men representing the various professional and business activities of the city. It has as its object the educational and social development of its members thru the means of lectures, musicals, exhibits and entertainments. A beneficial feature is connected with the club from which a compensation will be paid to members in case of sickness or accident.

Union Swamps Morgan College Richmond, Va.-Union University defeated Morgan College of Baltimore at Richmond last Saturday by a score of 85 to 0. The visitors failed to make a single first down during the entire contest. At no time during the game was the locals goal threatened. The visitors were completely outclassed in every department of the game but displayed a gameness that would be creditable to any school. Many substitutes were sent in by the locals but the ease with which they fitted in the various positions showed that Union's reserve power equaled that of the first team. Practically the whole Union team deserves individual mentioning as do Capt. Fletcher and Canady of Morgan. As a unit Union displayed its best team work of the year. Union's next home game is against Lincoln University Nov. 12. Lincoln defeated Morgan College 63 to 0 and from comparing scores a good game can be expected. Line-up: Morgan College Union Gordon L.E.

Thousands Expected to see Union's Games Union University is busy making preparations to entertain the thousands of spectators who are expecting to see the biggest games of the season in Richmond against Lincoln on Nov. 12 and Hampton on Thanksgiving Day. The crowds of fans are expecting to see the equally matched teams in action together on November 12th, in order to determine the winner for the Thanksgiving Day game. Union's men are in fine trim and the optimists have already predicted that she will be second to none this year for the inter-collegiate association championship. At the Thanksgiving Day game against Hampton, Union is expecting to have in attendance the biggest crowd that has ever witnessed a ball game in the city of Richmond. Union has already played three games: St. Paul 7, Union 51; Va. Theol. Seminary & Col. 0, Union 13; Morgan College 0, Union 85. BUFFAOLES FAIL TO SHOW UP FOR THE PIEDMONT GAME The strong Buffalo eleven that was supposed to play the Piedmonts on the latter's gridiron at Brightwood, D. C. did not appear and gave no reason at all for their failure, after they had earnestly requested a game with the Piedmonts through the daily papers. This deliberate action on the part of the Buffaloes in refusing to respond, has perhaps barred their chance of playing the Piedmonts, and has given the public all reasons to believe that the Buffaloes are very much in doubt as to their ability to beat the Piedmonts. At 1:30, the time for the game to start, all eyes were turned in the direction from which the Buffalos were supposed to arrive, but they did not show up. The crowd was as much disappointed as the Piedmonts. As an exhibition performance, to please the crowd, the first and second teams of the Piedmonts played a game. The Piedmonts will meet the strong Lafayette A. C. of Alexandria, Va., on the Brightwood grounds, on Sunday Nov. 6th at 2:00 P. M. The two teams are pretty equally matched, and the game is expected to arouse the greatest of interest. Notice this paper weekly for the schedule of the Piedmonts and other amateur teams. Stage Whispers (Continued from page 4) It is said Dancing Dotson scored one of the few hits on the bill at B. S. Moss' Broadway Theatre, New York. I will tell the world if Dancing Dotsen and Maxie would unite—it surely would be some team. Moss and Frye played the Orpheum at St. Paul, Oct. 31, Nov.1 and 2.

Rogers, the ventriloquist, is the outstanding feature of an ordinary bill at the Avenue Theatre (Chicago), and it would not be a bad idea for him to freshen up his jokes. Harper and Blanks are at the Apollo Theatre (Chicago) the first half. I saw in a periodical the other day where the Church was returning to the staging of religious plays and pageants. If so it is getting back to the original idea of the theatre, as in ancient times the only plays were religious presentations and it was only in the fifteenth century that we began to have drama along the lines we have it today. Of course nothing equaling the present elaborate scale of magnificent costumes and scenery was to be dreamed of; even the early Shakespearean productions were crude affairs.

Adams Director Columbia Conservatory of Music INTERDENOMINATIONAL CHOIR SONG SERVICE An appreciative audience of music lovers, members and friends assembled last Sunday afternoon at Israel C. M. E. Church, First and B Streets, S. W., and listened to the various choir units in a service of Song. The following choirs were represented: Third Baptist, Second Baptist, Nineteenth Street Baptist, First Baptist of West Washington, Miles Memorial C. M. E., Israel C. M. E., and a selected mixed quartette. While all groups did not possibly measure up to the standard, still they deserved credit for their ready response to the invitation to appear. Certainly, other choirs invited but not present should have responded, however those present made the occasion interesting and enjoyable to all. One very interesting phase of the service occurred when Mrs. Nellie Smith, leader, with her sixty-two voice surplied juvenile choir from First Baptist Church entered in procession and gave a good account of themselves during the services. This is the largest juvenile choir in the city and their leader should be commended for her splendid work. More such mutual co-operation among choirs would do good and we trust other similar demonstrations may follow in its wake. The committee having charge were the Misses Ada Woods, chairman; Annie A. Nichols, vice chairman; Etta Thomas and Georgia Savoy, organist. Attorney Davis was Master of Ceremonies. MINER NORMAL CHORAL ORGANIZES Music activities at Miner Normal Community Center began in earnest last Tuesday evening. The enthusiasm manifested was marked and if indications point aright, prospects are that many who now may be indifferent to the success of the organization, would eagerly sacrifice time and what not for membership at no distant date. They who stand upon the threshold of By C. Leslie Frazier 803 S. Fairfax Street The football game between the Mozarts and Armstrong High School of Washington played here last Saturday, was witnessed by a crowd of loyal rooters. This being the Mozart's first game of the season, we must commend them. The visitors were clean, fair players and we hope to hear of them mixing up with Alexandria's best, the Lafayettes. We also look forward to a Dunbar-Lafayette game. Mere courtesy would prompt an answer from the Washington teams to whom challenges have been sent. We even go so far as to say that "any" team in Washington would be considered by this aggregation. Write Alexandria Lafayettes, Tribune Office, Washington. The score of the Armstrong-Mozart game last Saturday was 27-0, in favor of Armstrong. Advertise your business! Beginning with the first of this month the Elks gave up their quarters in the Community Building and are now holding meetings at the Elk's Home on Henry Street. The statement published in this column last week in reference to the Dudley Theatre should have appeared the week before. We stand for condemnation when called for, and praise where it is deserved. The show at this house for the week of October 17, was not what it should have been and did not appeal to the better class of patrons; while the show of the week of the 10th was one of the best ever seen in this city. This theatre is worthy of the support of the public but a boycott or vigorous protest should be put up when the management does not present clean acts on its stage. The Ministers Association sent out communications to the Parker-Gray Alumni Association and the Parent-Teachers Association in regards to ninth grade studies in this city. A statement is made public in the current issue of "The Foundation" published in Atlanta, Ga., that the state university has noted the various standards of the high schools and is interested in the standardization of school in this class. The university authorities think that a public rating of Negro colleges would be beneficial to all concerned; and that the interest of sound education would be promoted by the standardization of colored institutions of high school grade throut the South. This phase of educational work was recently 6 doubt and expectancy about the ultimate success or failure of the society by nonmembership and nonattendance, then should the work succeed rush in, need not expect favor or possibly impending glory, should that time come, but must take their place in the ranks as good members. Most singers and instrumentalists in this respect, follow moods and fancies based on sheer imagination of their possible influence and they never attain to fame until somebody more or less, opens the door of opportunity to them. They would be "a great singer or artist" in this or that, providing—but they never find time to build up the structure to positive greatness or substantial fame, rather would they have greatness thrust'd upon them without due consideration of the circumstances. Thus cry they: "Oh, Fate! How cruel art thou!" and still they tempt Fate. The following temporary officers were selected to serve until more permanent organization: President, Miss Dorothy Robinson, of Lincoln Temple Memorial church, and /Mrs. M. P. Morgan, of Metropolitan Baptist church, Secretary. These ladies, with others present, were so enthused over the sing-drill that they left determined to gain many others by next Tuesday's meeting, 7:30 P. M. at the school. All music lovers are cordially invited. HAYES-WORMLEY RECORD HAYES-WORMLEY RECORD Have you ever heard the tenor-baritone record by Roland W. Hayes and Dr. C. Summer Wormle of this city? It is a veritable gem and a pity that more records are not to be had at this time. The selection, "Salennne m quest fr' Ora La Forza del Destinn" made sometime since ere Mr. Hayes took leave for Europe. Roland Hayes' resplendent voice with pureness and clarity of tone, blends harmoniously with the magnificent delivery of Dr. Wormley's artistic baritone. Dr. Wormley is a soloist of distinction and ranks high among the leading musical elites of the race. started in North Carolina by the Division of Negro Education of the State Department. Both replies to the correspondence of the Ministers Association were negative. Rev. S. B. Ross is president and Rev. L. A. King, secretary.

The placing of several children in school. The ascertaining that there was a white truant officer known as "nurse," and that her whole time is given to white children. The School Superintendent favors such a worker for the colored people. Aroused interest and sentiment in voting for the City Management Plan. The Association is launching into a membership drive. It is brought to the citizens attention that it is dangerous to delay the payment of taxes. Remember the time is up November 15. If you have never paid your capitation taxes, pay three years' taxation because it is necessary to do so before you may register. Five city Teachers: Mrs. Madden, Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. Thornton, Messrs. White and Lyles; also out of city teachers, Messrs. Baltimore and Madden and three parents attended the Parent-Teacher's Association meeting Tuesday night, October 25. A committee of seven was appointed to make arrangements for the concert to be given by a body of students from Dunbar High School, Washington, the first Friday night in December. More parents and teachers are urged to become interested in this association and if truly interested show it by their presence at the next meeting which will be announced in this paper.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5. 1921 WOMEN FORM GREAT LABOR ORGANIZATION WOMEN FORM GREAT LABOR ORGANIZATION For nearly a year, Negro women who have distinguished themselves for "putting over" big propositions have been laying plans for the launching of a great Labor Union to be composed of wage earners of every class in every city, town and hamlet. Among the promoters, the following names appear: Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, the distinguished banker; Miss Elizabeth C. Carter, Honorary President National Association of Colored Women, and "War Secretary" of the Washington Branch of the Y. W. C. A.; Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, Honorary President National Association of Colored Women, and Chairman Board of Trustees of the Douglass Memorial Home; Mrs. W. T. Johnson, President Virginia State Convention; Mrs. Ora B. Stokes, Vice-President National Race Congress; Miss Nannie H Burroughs, Secretary National Convention of Baptist Women; Mrs. Laura Brown leader of women in Western Pennsylvania; Miss Violet A. Johnson, New Jersey's most popular Christian worker; Mrs. Gallie W. Stewart, President Indiana Federation of Woman's Clubs; and scores of other national and state leaders. The purpose of the organization are clearly set forth in the call: FIRST To develop and encourage efficient workers. SECOND To assist women in finding the kind or work for which they seem best qualified. THIRD To elevate the migrant class of workers and incorporate them permanently in service of some kind. FOURTH To standardize living conditions. FIFTH To secure a wage that will enable women to live decently. SIXTH To assemble the multitudes of grievances of employers and employes into a set of common demands and strive, mutually, to adjust them. SEVENTH To enlighten women as to the value of organization. To make and supply appropriate uniforms for working women.This shall be done through a profit sharing enterprise operated by the Association. NINTH To influence just legislation affecting women wage earners. The names of these women are a sufficient guarantee of success in all their lines of endeavor. This will be the first labor organization of Negro women in the world and one leader says, "We are going to invite into membership every woman from the kitchen to the castle, from the backwoods to the great metropolis." Organizers will be put in the field to get ten thousand women by Lincoln's Birthday, February twelfth. The conference is called to meet on Armistice Day. The reason given as follows: President Harding has called a Conference for the Limitation of Armament to meet in this city on Armistice Day, November eleventh. That day marks the birth of a new world. As the years go by, it will be more and more celebrated and significant. The Conference called by the President will bring to this city the most distinguished group that has ever met to plan for the stability, progress and peace of the governments of the world. Many people will come here to be inspired by what will take place. When you think of the meaning of the occasion and of our contribution to it, you will doubtless decide, as we have, that we could not select a better time to call the women together to organize for advancement along economic, social and political lines. The meetings will be held in the Y. W. C. A., and a closing Mass Meeting in the John Wesley A. M. E. Z. church, Sunday, November 13th, 3 P. M. Noted speakers have been invited. One of the big things to be done is to select National Headquarters. The promoters are practical business women and we are not surprised to learn that they are going to conduct a Mail Order Supply House to make and supply house dresses, uniforms, aprons and caps for "women who care how they look while they work." Think of the thousands of "every day dresses" Negro women buy. We can buy from ourselves and earn money selling to others. "Where did that blood come from?" It was only his upturned bucket of paint.

There are so many many trusses, 'appliances' and 'cures' for Rupture advertised these days that the sufferer is well nigh bewildered. He or she hardly knows what to do and more There are so many many trusses, 'appliances' and 'cures' for Rupture advertised these days that the sufferer is well nigh bewildered. He or she hardly knows what to do and more often than not ends up by spending his hard-earned money for something that turns out to be worse than useless—frequently does more harm than good. It is with an honest purpose to save Ruptured people from spending their money foolishly and without benefit that I am giving this little talk and advice. WHAT RUPTURE REALLY IS WHAT RUTURE REALLY IS Rupture or Hernia (they both mean the same thing) is a purely mechanical aliment. There are at various points in the inside muscle wall of the abdomen natural openings placed there by the Creator for the passage of certain nerves, blood vessels, etc. Now if you happen to overstrain yourself at the particular spot where one of these natural openings is located, you sprain or spread the muscles and tissues and enlarge the natural openings to such an extent that the bowel or some other viscera (contents of the abdomen) pushes through alongside of the nerve or blood vessel and forms a bunch or mass underneath the skin and outside the muscle wall of the abdomen. Keeping this in mind, it will at once be seen that there is no opening or hole to heal up and that all this talk about healing the breach by applying liniments, plasters, lotions, salves, etc., is merely a scheme to separate the victims of Rupture from their mney. THE PROPER COURSE TO PURSUE What must be done to correct the trouble is to hold back the protrusion inside the abdomen and in some way strengthen and tone up the strained and weakened muscles and tissues so the natural opening will be drawn up or shrunk to its normal size. JUST TWO POSSIBLE REMEDIES Any reputable Physician or Surgeon will tell you that there are just two and only two possible ways to successfully treat a Rupture. One method is the knife or operation. The other a PROPER FITTING TRUSS. NEGLECT IS CRIMINAL AS WELL AS DANGEROUS It is criminal to allow yourself, your wife, or child to continue in this way of neglect. Throw away that false modesty that might cause you to be an invalid for life and see to it at once that these Ruptures, large or small have scientific care and treatment. It requires thought, study, experience, and much patience to successfully treat this dangerous affliction, so why be content to buy makeshifts and alleged cures that will do you harm and maybe send you to your grave. Out of a hundred cases there probably would not be any two near enough alike to require the same identical treatment and appliance. I construct an appliance for the requirements of each individual case and give my expert knowledge and attention for the same money you would pay for many ready made trusses that do not fit properly and in the long run will cause serious injury. Furthermore I guarantee to hold your Rupture with comfort regardless of sex or occupation or it will not cost you one penny. It will cost you nothing to come in and give me a history of your case.

Tt was a common custom of the early days of America to be instruct ed with the Bible as a text book which proved a means of learning the child religious history and to act as ‘a speller and primer, Benjamin was first instructed to read through this medium, being taught by his grand- mother, He later went to a school which both white and colored children at- tend, and of course, was taught by a white teacher. This school was very small and not so greatly attended, as the school system was not very-old in those days. Little Benjamin was a very serious and etermined scholar. He was anx- ious and apt. He cared little for the games the children played and he sel- dom took part in them. It was gen- erally said of him that “all his de- light was to dive into his books.” Not being able to secure Yery many books to read he sought information through conversation and observa- tion. He was always alert to all the local news and his queries led him to valuable information. Besides being diligent in studying he was very industrious and helped his father in all his work. He was alert, active, progressive and willing in performing the hard tasks of the farm. He was partial to mathematics and soon became the boast of his home town as being the brightest boy for miles around. His memory was great and he used his grammar properly and understood the things he talked about. By nature he was kind, gen- erous, humane and he was obedient to his parents, Being a boy of such qualities we can easily imagine him as having dreams of doing great things when he became a man, and who knows but that many a night he lay awake longing for better circumstances that would place within his reach higher attainments in the /way of learning, learning, learning. He never once dreamed that he v would make the first clock in America, or that he, would make an almanac that would be recognized by the whole country, or that the President of the United States would appoint him to help survey and define the boundary lines and lay out the streets of the District of Columbia. But in after years these things did come to pass. ‘That part of Maryland where Ban- neker made his home is known as El- licot City. If a fellow WON'T go to school ho should be MADE to go. PARENT'S CORNER ~ HOW FATHERS INFLUENCE THEIR CHILDREN In The Woman’s Home Companion Charles E. Jefferson, pastor of Broad. way- Tabernacle, New York City, writes a pointed sermon to fathers, in which he says in part: “In the earlier years children can be controlled by their mother; but by and by there comes a time when they be- gin to note the conduct of the father. No eyes are keener than the eyes of achild, He sees everything the father does; he reflects on what the father does not do. His logic is inexorable. He argues his way to conclusions which cannot be shaken, If his fath- er does not pray, prayer must be un- necessary. Grown men surely know what is needed. If his father never reads the Bible, then the big book can be dispensed with. Fathers know what books are most worth reading. If he does not go to church, then church attendance is a pastime and not a duty, for men so old and wise as father is would not neglect church,” if church was of value to them.” NEVER use the word “nigger” and see that your children do not use it, FREE CLINIC— 7 to 9 P.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, OUT OF TOWN $2.00 PER YEAR "FUNDAMENTAL, ETERNAL AND INESCAPABLE DIFFERENCE." One of the most dangerous expressions ever made by a President of the United States regarding the race question, was made by President Harding when he said: "This is not a question of social equality, but a question of recognizing a fundamental, eternal and inescapable difference." Such a declaration puts the stamp of official approval upon discriminations, segregations and jim-crowism. The relationship of the colored people of the United States to other peoples in this country, cannot be compared with the relations of colored peoples within other nations or countries; for we speak the same language; we believe in and practice the same religions; we cherish and aspire to the same ideals; we have and strive for the same culture; we eat the same food; we wear the same clothes; and indulge in the same sports as other Americans. Therefore, wherein are we to recognize this great "fundamental, eternal and inescapable difference" which difference the President failed to point out and which difference we deny exists? It is evident that this was purely a political speech and it was seemingly deliberately made at this particular time, with the hope of making a favorable impression upon the delegates to the Armament Conference which convenes here on the 11th at which will be present the leading men of other countries. We do not expect that many of our leaders or any number of our newspapers will be deceived by the few sentences appearing on their face to be favorable to us which evidently were used as a "sugar coat" for the "poison pill"; nor do we believe this speech will fool any of the delegates here from the Old World, every one of whom is an astute diplomat and statesman. Europe, unlike America, is guided by her statesmen, while the United States is controlled very largely by men of money. We are not yet ready to subscribe to Mr. Harding's view that we are "eternally and inescapably different." We are "inescapably" intermixed with the white people of this country to the extent that one can hardly tell where the "color line," begins or stops; or whether in fact there is any "line." There are "white" people with colored blood in their veins and there are "colored" people with white blood in their veins, so much so, that no man could successfully draw a line of "inescapable difference," and this the President—of all men—must certainly know. 8 "Mi-Dears" Dancing Class, Murray Casino.

It was unfortunate, however, that he so qualified all his statments that the thoughts and ideas advanced are dark as to motive and meaning. For instance, we would like for the President to tell us just what he means when he says we are inescapably different from all other peoples and at the same time that there should be no separate or distinct racial groups in America. If the president means or even intimates that I am to deny my equality to or with any man before God 'who made of one blood all men' and 'who is no respector of persons' to get a vote in the Southland, then away with the vote I have to beg for and give me my true relationship to God and my fellows. "This is a day of open speech and the President tried unsuccessfully to carry both issues—the Negro issue and the lily-white issue on both shoulders." (Rev.) E. D. W. JONES, (Pastor of Union Wesley, A. M. E. Zion Church) "President Harding has drawn a righteous conclusion from an absurd premise. If there exists a fundamental, eternal and inescapable difference of race, then the political, economical and educational equality would be absolutely impossible. The acceptance of such a difference would justify the Ku Klux Klan whose avowed purpose is t uphold the eternal supremacy of the white race based upon the alleged god-intended differences of race. "President Harding has committed the fundamental error of attempting to mix practical political procedure with which he is familiar, with fundamental scientific and sociological doctime which is evidently borrowed from superficial sources. The doctrine of inferiority of the Negro which lay at the basis of human slavery, and was relied upon by John C. Calhoun and the entire school of pro-slavery philosophers to justify that iniquitous institution. It is impossible for President Harding to base a super-structure of liberty and equality upon a falla- cious foundation which has been so thoroughly exploded. COLOR QUESTION THE BIG ISSUE AT CONFERENCE (Continued from page 1) including Mr. E. D. Morel and Mr. Walter Lippman, in his "The Stakes of Diplomacy" have asserted that it was scrambling over the loot in Africa and other territories that brought about the World War. The greed of white governments found its punishment. The time has come when Western Civilization will have to change its methods in dealing with the colored races. For Africa has been gobbled up. There remains only China and the Far East to be disposed of. Europe has been maintaining its inequitable and out-of-date society at the expense largely of the colored races of the world. They will have to be taken into partnership and the machinery of force discarded by which they have been held in subjection. This is the broad background of interest for the colored peoples of the world, black, yellow and brown, in the Washington Conference. So it will be seen that it is not merely "disarmament" which is to be discussed there. In fact the invitation to the conference did not mention the word "disarmament." On August 12 of this year, months after Senator William E. Borah had proposed a resolution calling for a three power conference on naval disarmament between Great Britain, Japan and the United States, the newspapers published the text of a note sent out by Charles Evans Hughes, Secretary of State of the United States. The note was sent to the governments of Great Britain, Japan, France, Italy and China, inviting them to send representatives to a conference in Washington "on the subject of the limitation of armament, in connection with which Pacific and Far Eastern questions should also be discussed." It will be seen that the note did not mention "disarmament" but "limitation of armament." In other words the question proposed for discussion was not the abilitation of existent armies and navies but agreements to limit the future increase of those already in existence. For this reason it is a mistake to call the Washington conference a "disarmament conference." Every one of the nations invited has accepted the invitation which Secretary Hughes sent them. In consequence there will be such a gathering in Washington, as the world has never in its history known before. Existing governments of the world will be represented by their ablest and most astute ministers, experts in colonial administration, financiers, diplomats and military and naval officers. The generals who led the allied armies in the world war, Foch of France, Diaz of Italy, Haig of England; Admiral Beatty of the British fleet; Vice-Admiral Kato, Director of the Naval Staff College of Japan—these are figures who will help to represent their governments in Washington. And at the head of the various delegations will be David Lloyd George, prime minister of Great Britain; Aristide Briand, Premier of France; Dr. W. W. Yen, Minister of Foreign Affairs for China. To represent the United States President Harding has appointed four men: Elihu Root, former Senator and Secretary of State; Oscar Underwood, leader in the Senate; Henry Cabot Lodge, Senator from Massachusetts; and Charles Evans Hughes, now Secretary of State. Whether the delegates to the Armament Conference realize it or not—and some of them undoubtedly do the future of European civilization is at stake. Many of the men who will be in Washington took part as generals in the war. Many of them are partly responsible for the conditions in Europe which made that war inevitable. It has then said that to invite generals and admirals to an armament conference, with a view to reducing or abolishing armies and navies, is like inviting a conference of burglars to devise measures for protecting homes. But those armaments will have to be reduced if there is not to be more war, such disastrous and horrible war as mankind has not yet ever suffered. Whether those delegates in Washington come to an agreement or not on the reduction of armies and navies, depends largely on the people of the United States. It is up to the people to demand that the conferences shall be held in the open. They must demand that no small group of men sitting behind closed doors have the power to condemn the world to further misery. Closed doors failed to make a peace after the world war in Versailles. The men who failed to make a decent peace there now have their last opportunity. The penalty will be ruin, the last and greatest tragedy of white Europe. Meanwhile, Americans should demand to know why ninety-three cents out of every dollar of their government's money in 1920 was spent in paying for past wars and in preparing for future wars. (In the next article Mr. Seligmann will discuss the political issues which confront the conference) The successful bidders for line 2506 were T. Miller, R. W. Harvey, W. Corbin, S. Green and P. O. Smith. For line 2485 E. A. Ridely. The following lines are up for bid: 2505, Washington to St. Louis, 2384, Washington to Boston; 2308, Washington to Chicago; 2319, Washington to Chicago. C. W.
