The Washington Tribune All the News That's Fit to Print VOL.2, No.8 UNION OF ALL METHODISTS IS TAKING FORM Meeting Here this Week Lays Foundation for Action LARGER COMMISSION NEEDED Committees Appointed to Work Out Important Details A common Catechism and a common hymnal were agreed upon and a report of a special committee on plan of procedure which was adopted, was the sum total of the work accomplished by the meeting of the twenty-four commissioners representing the three colored Methodist Churches that met here at the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church last Tuesday, in the interest of furthering organic union of those churches. The following report was adopted: Report of the Special Committee of the Tri-Commission of the A.M.E., A.M.E.Z., and C.M.E. Churches We, your Committee on Plan of Procedure, beg to submit the following report: Whereas, We believe that Organic Union of the A. M. E., A. M. E. Z and C. M. E. Churches is practicable, desirable and feasible, and, whereas, we recognize the necessity of some definite outline of the plans and propositions underlying the question of Organic Union, we respectfully recommend this question of Organic Union to be approached from the following angles: (1) That the entire commission consisting of twenty-four members with eight representatives from each participating body be divided into two groups, consisting of four each, from each denomination, to be styled as Sub-Commission with authority to study, formulate and recommend plans for the basis of union; taking under consideration the following to wit:— Group “A”—The Name, Policy, as to doctrines and administration; the Episcopacy—Episcopal Districts and Annual Conferences. Group “B”—Departmental Life—Institutions and Property Rights. (2) This Sub-Commission to make report to the full Commission at such time as said Commission is or may be called to meet. (3) Believing htat a larger general Commission is desirable we recommend that the Council of Bishops of each of the participating bodies be asked to increase the number of commissioners from eight to fifteen. (4) Resolved, Further, That during the period of negotiations the members of our respective churches, annual conferences, our pastors, presiding elders, general officers and bishops be urged to exercise the most kindly fellowship and co-operation looking towards that unity of spirit and service which will consummate Organic Union. (5) Resolved, That a copy of this report be submitted to all of our Church organs. Respectfully submitted, Bishop, G. L. BLACKWELL, Chr., (A.M.E.Z.) Bishop, R. A. CARTER, (C.M.E.) Rev. S. L. GREEN, (A.M.E.) Bishop Geo. C. CLEMENTS, (A.M.E.Z.) Rev. C. M. TANNER, (A.M.E.) Rev. J. A. Bray, (C.M.E.)

The principalship of Shaw Junior High left vacant by the resignation of Miss Lucy D. Slowe, who goes to the Deanship of women of Howard University. Five or six persons, already in the system are mentioned as possible for the position. The retirement of Prof. Thos. H. Hunster, as director of art in the colored schools, leaves that position open. Prof. Luther Sadgwar of the Shaw Junior High will possibly be given the directorship of art. The resignation of Maj. M. T. Dean as military instructor for the high schools, was accepted by the board of education at their last meeting, June 21st. This leaves that position open. The board of education will meet Wednesday July 5, for the last time until September. These positions may not be filled until the first meeting in September, which is due to be on the 6th. BORAH POINTS OUT DANGERS IN DYER BILL Declares Republicans are Handing the Race a Gold Brick OFFERS A NEW SUGGESTION Loop Holes in Measure are Pointed Out to the Delegation "The Dyer Bill is not worth the paper it is written on," said Senator Borah, to a delegation of nine representatives of the three Methodist Churches, who called on him Tuesday to solicit his interest in its passage. The Senator further stated that he felt that the Republicans were trying to hand the Negroes of this country a gold brick in the shape of the Dyer-Anti-Lynching Bill. He stated that he could not conscientiously support the bill. "I would feel myself an enemy to the colored race if I should hand you a gold brick like this," said the Senator. Senator Borah pointed out to the delegation that the Dyer Bill would not bring the relief colored people were seeking. He stated that there was nothing in the bill to reach the real offenders, the mob itself. That the Government would have to arrest the Governor and Attorney General of (Continued on page 8) WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JULY 1, 1922 PRESIDENT CHAVERS RECEIVING CHARTER FOR NEW DOUGLASS NATIONAL BANK TO BOYCOTT COL. SHERRILL'S BATHING BEACH Civic Associations Ask Ministers to Join in the Crusade The Civic Center of Affiliated Associations in their regular meeting last Saturday night went on record as opposing the proposed bathing beach to be established on Columbia Island by Col. Sherill, Superintendent of public buildings and grounds in the District. The association went further than their protest by asking the ministers of all churches in the District to warn their congregations against patronizing the beach, by pointing out the danger of future segregation in the District in the future. A resolution was passed by the association embodying the above thought and further calling upon parents of children not to permit them to patronize the beach. The action of Col. Sherrill the statement says in locating a bathing beach for colored people on Columbia Island in the face of the strong opposition on the part of the press and civic associations, was bitterly denounced. The Columbian Island project has not been endorsed by a single organization in the District. After the site had been personally selected by Col. Sherrill, who is a southerner, it is alleged that a group of men were induced to circulate a petition and get it signed by a number of people who were unacquainted with the project, so as to have something to show in the way of a demand on behalf of the colored people. Columbia Island is about two hundred yards north of the Highway Bridge on the Virginia side of the channel and must be reached from the Virginia shore by some sort of ferry. It is made of dry mud pumped up recently from the bottom of the river. A more inaccessible and unsuitable, and probably unsanitary, location REAL ESTATE FIRM SHOWS REAL PROGRESS Company Headed by Mortimer M. Harris is now Largest Here (By J. A. G. LuValle) The Tribune is ever alert to the progress and advancement and improvement of colored business mem. "Eternal vigilence is the price of success" so we have often heard. The progress of N. M. Harris proves that statement beyond the shadow of a doubt. We happened into Mr. Harris' office this week and noting the many changes and increased force we asked for an explanation and this is part of what we found. The Real Estate firm of M. M. Harris, 615 F Street, Northwest, has been enlarged by the addition of two rooms and three persons to the firm. The four connecting rooms have been newly covered and a library valued at about a thousand dollars added. Mr. Harris is to look after the law and loans of the firm and maintaining general management of the affairs of the firm. Attorney S. M. Dudley has been associated with Mr. Harris for some time and has hisc law practice along with his church work. The new members admitted to the firm are Mr. Robert L. Evans, a graduate of the Howard Law School, who with Attorney Fitzhugh Alexander, will have charge of sales and investments; Attorney F. M. Settles, of Memphis, Tenn., will handle the insurance and look after the rental department. With (Continued on page 8) could scarcely be found. It is wholly without shade and the so-called "beach" is merely a bank of mud. A complete boycott of the inaccessible and unhealthy beach is expected. Office: 920 U St., N. W. PLE DOUGLASS NATIONAL BANK GETS CHARTER A charter was issued by Comptroller Crissinger last Tuesday, June 27th to the Douglass National Bank of Chicago, Ill. This is the second National bank operated by Negroes to receive a charter, the first one having been issued last September to the First National Bank of Boley, Okla., an all Colored town. The charter was received here by Mr. P. W. Chavers who is to be president of the new institution. Mr. Chavers was in the city several days arrainging the necessary details. The Douglass National Bank has an authorized capital of $200,000, with $100,000 paid up. Many prominent business men of Chicago are interested in the bank and are determined to build up an institution which will give much credit to the race. SEC'Y HAWKINS MAKES SPLENDID YEAR'S REPORT $2,554,309.94 Collected in Dollar Money Under His Administration BISHOPS WELL PLEASED Retired Preachers, Widows, and Orphans Benefit By Fund The Board of Finance of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, headquarters at 1541 Fourteenth Street, N. W., Washington, D. C., of which Mr. J. R. Hawkins is Secretary-Treasurer, held its regular annual meeting on June 21, 1922. Inasmuch as this year maked the fiftieth anniversary of the organization of the Department of Finance, the meeting was held in New York City in connection with the midsummer session of the Council of Bishops. In addition to making report for the business of the last fiscal year, Secretary Hawkins was asked to give a summary of the business of the Department from its organization up to date. Since the organization, ten (10) secretaries have been in charge in this Department, Secretary Hawkins having served since the General Conference of 1912. The report showed that there has been a steady increase in the receipts from year to year.—Dollar Money alone reported amounting to $6,225.

LODGES TURN OUT Building to be one of the Most Beautiful in Washington After singing "How Firm a Foundation" and "Onward Christian Soldier" with a few appropriate remarks, the ground breaking by the Masons of the District for their new temple proceeded with alacrity Saturday afternoon, which impressed the large crowd assembled on the lot at the corner of 10th and U Streets Northwest, for the occasion, that it was a business proposition they were undertaking. The various lodges and chapters of the Easter Star assembled at the hall on 11th Street and marched over to the U Street corner, arriving about 5:30 p.m. Grand Master Mitchell was the Master of Ceremonies. Grand Worthy Matron, Mrs. Ella Campbell was the first person presented and she made timely remarks, when she said: "The world requires action, not words. Down-right constructive action will erect this building. We appeal to the fault-finders, the knockers and the old grouch to put your shoulders to the wheel with us and we will put up this building in record time. Let us talk it up; let us pray it up and let us pay up." Grand Master Mitchell made a short address as did Samuel T. Craig, G. C., an dC. P. Ford, G. S. The building, as indicated by the plans, will cover the lot, which is about 95 feet on U Street and 120 feet on 10th Street and is to be five stories with basement. The basement is to be used as club rooms for men. There is to be an arcade with stores on the first floor; the second and third floors will be given over to an auditorium; fourth floor is for the Eastern Star and the fifth floor for lodge rooms for the order. This will be one of the most beautiful buildings in Washington and will open new stores for colored people desiring desirable locations on the fast growing U Street. The steam shovel has been working all the week and much dirt has been hauled away. The excavation is to be nine feet deep. BIG CELEBRATION IN ANACOSTIA ON FOURTH The citizens of Anacostia are planning one of the biggest demonstrations and celebrations in the history of this community for the Fourth of July. The affair will be given under the auspices of the Barry Farm Citizens Association and will be held at Green Willow Grove Park, on Sumner Road. This will possibly be the only out door celebration of this kind in the District on the Fourth and an extra large crowd is expected to be present. The celebration will start about noon and continue until midnight. The day's exercises as mapped out calls for addresses by prominent speakers, field and track games, patriotic chorus singing, fireworks, sight seeing, visiting Bowling Field (just below the grove) and Frederick Douglass' home. A special band will furnish the music during the day and will also render a special musical program. The members of the local bar, and the medical associations have been invited. Others invited are Senators McCormick, France and Representative Dyer, the District Commissioners Surveyor Melvin Mazen, the Blair Invincible Republican Club, and editors of all local papers. A good old fashioned country dinner will be served by the seven churches of the suburbs. Dainties of (Continued on page 8) International conclave, Knights Templars Washington, D. C., Aug. 6-12.

Playgrounds The churches and Sunday Schools ignore the fact that our children have six days of "running wild" wherever they choose. Why not an interdenominational playground?

What nonsense. ‘Already there are hundreds of first- class composers whose works do not even afford them a competent compen- sation, so why should so many under- studies even think otherwise? ‘One may have a good melody but it must be “doctored”, i e., criticised, ar- ‘ranged and properly marketed ere it amounts to anything. Right here is ‘where this young colored firm may be of utmost benefit to our aspiring ‘young. composers. ‘They certainly can be of better service in this re- gard than some distant disinterested party whose interest ends when they obtain your money.

According to the “law” of ‘Herrin the penalty for strikebreaking is death. ‘If the strikebreaker is white, execution is by a bullet or the knife; if black we predict a_ little roasting in, addition, History will repeat itself, and next time when it happens to be black strikebreakers who are killed the coroner's jury fol- lowing the" precedent established at Herrin, will find that they came to their death at the hands of parties unknown, The community will return apparently to normaley, but the un- dereurrent of contempt for the law and lust for violence will be sweeping jon unseen. Yet the officers of the ‘government do nothing, snugly com- placent because THEY have been Port from violence—so far! | ‘The verdict of the coroner's jury at Herrin is a timely reminder of the iterenes between passing a law and lenforeing it. The government may put laws on the statute books almost at will, but the enforcement of law rests ultimately on public opinion. At one stage disregard of an unpopu- liar law,will be winked at, at another enforcement will be resisted by foree; and if the law is sufficiently unpopu- lar attempted enforcement will pro- | voke a revolution and the overthrow lof the government.

Outside, the sounds of the day were already heard, Inside, the Raf’ flat was commenc- ing to show signs of the beginning of the daily routine, Mrs. Raff, smart in her morning dress of striped blue and white, was putting the finishing touches to Ute Anna’s and the baby's toilet. “Jimmie,” she called to James, Jt “didn't you call grandpa, yet?” “Sure,” answered the eight-year-old heir; “but grandpa says he ain't going to eat any breakfast this morning; he says he's got a ‘gagement.” “a what?” with a puzzled frown, “A 'gagement,” shrieked Jimmie, above the clatter of the dishes, as he vigorously set the breakfast table. “He means an engagement,” ex- piained Raff, Sr., with a grin, “Where do you suppose the old boy's going?” “I can't be guessing now,” replied ils wife, “He ain’t going to see moth- er until tomorrow. Jim,” she added, lowering her yoice, “this 1s the second time this week he's gone without his breakfast; the other time he had an engagement, too.” “Hint anything?” “Tit him, he's as mum as @ clam. { Elles’s house was not so far away I would suspect him of golng to see mother, He's getting pretty restless lately, I've noticed. Mrs, Raff sighed in @ grieved ‘fash- fon. “We can’t have everything we want in this world,” she continued Now, wouldn't I love to go to Ellen's for the Fourth, dressed up swell, with you and the kids, But we can’t af- ford it, costs too much for fares. “a Uke pretty frocks, and a car, and cute clothes for the young ones, and some new things for the house, But if I can't, I can’t, and J ain't go- ing to mope over it. ['ve tried to make a nice home for father, but if he don't appreciate it, and tries to keep things from me, I can't do a thing. But I do say as how I think it's kinder ungrateful like.” Mrs, ibe deposited Baby Johnnie in his high chair, and stepping across the hall, she knocked on her father’s door. “Father,” she called, “it’s terrible hot out this morning, you'd better have an egg and some coffee to brace you up. Come on, we're just sitting down.” “Lil be out in a minute, Nellie,” the yolce inside hed answered. It was quite some five ininutes later that the Raff family suffered a severe shock. They had heard the warning ef steps, but they were altogether un- prepared for the apparition that stood in the doorway. She had seen her husband's eyes fairly bulge over his coffee cup, and had heard Junior's ex: cited exclamation, before she turned to look. “Patrick Henry Grandman,” she cried, quite ignoring the familiar “father” in her wonder, “Wherever in the world did you get the fine duds and where, I ask, are you going?” For answer, Mr, Patrick Henry Grandman advanced Jauntily into the room. His eyes were twinkling, but when he spoke his tone was calmness itself, “Nellie,” he sald, “did you think your old dad was content to weur old togs and work in the factory for twen- ty dollars a week, when I worked full time? “Did you think I wanted to be sep- arated from your blessed mother? But I was tied, hand and foo. First, 1 was sick, and then your mother, then they cut us down to lmalf a week's work and I had my trade and could do nothing else. “Well, Nellie, to make a long story short, I've been working on an inven- tion. T've thought of it and dreamed of It and at last my dream has come true, Nellie, I signed the Declaration of Independence last night when I sold it to the government.” He placed a roll of bills at her plate. “Celebrate tomorrow,” he told her, “But, father,” broke in Mrs. Raff, “you aren't going to leave me. 1 won't—” Patrick Henry Grandman raised his hand, “Didn't I tell you, girl, 1 had signed the Declaration of Independence? Your mother and I will never be bossed again.” He patted her hand as he spoke, and for the first time bis daughter could find no answer. And meanwhile, down in Ellen's house some sixty odd miles away, a little’ old lady was smoothing down her soft black silk, and white laces. with hands that shook. “No, thank you, Ellen,” she was say PRINTING PRINTING PRINTING 400 South Capitol St. Book, Job, Commercial and Society Printing Henry W.

Ever since the first announcement that Associated Exhibitors would re lease the Continental spectacle, “Lady Godiva,” adapted from Tennyson's immortal poem, Manager R. H. Mur. tay of the Dunbar Theatre has re ceived requests that he show the fea. ture, It is, therefore, with great pleasure that he announces it as the special at. traction next week. In creating “Lady Godiva” for the sereen, the producers have endeavored to blend the various legends that have come down the years, as well as the facts set forth in Tennyson's classic narration. The re- sult is a complete romantic and dra- matic spectacle of unusually high quality. Godiva is shown as the beautiful daughter of the Mayor of Coventry, who is forced into a loveless marriage with the cruel Earl of Mercia, who is also lord of Coventry. Her lover, a young architect, who is building a great castle for the wicked Earl, is torn from her, cast into prison and condemned to death. ‘The architect escapes, and Godiva makes her famous ride, “clothed only in chastity,” using the words of Tenny- son, to save her townspeople from the wrath of her brutal husband. Her lover is récaptured and is led to ex- ecution, while a feast is being held to celebrate the opening of the castle, which his genius has constructed. But the wicked earl has counted without his cost. The outraged citi- zens of Coventry have undermined the foundation of the castle which, is built by the sea, and the rising tide does the rest. = In one. of the most spectacular scenes ever screened, the destruction of the castle with the banqueters is shown. Godiva escapes through the de- votion of the court jester, who returns to the banquet hall and death, while she is reunited with her lover. STAR ATHLETICS DEFEAT ALEXANDRIA CUBS The Star Athletics triumphed over the Alexandria Cubs in a thirteen in- ning affair at the latter’s home grounds. The score was 5 to 4. Poindexter of the Stars had a busy day at the bat with a home run, 2 triple, two doubles and a single to his credit.

Phone North 6554-w 6 A Slap That Should be Felt Around the World A Slap That Should be Felt Around the World By the Observer A news article appearing in this paper last week told of an incident that happen in Louisville Ky., where a white Republican leader slapped the face of the editor of The Louisville News, that should arouse the blood in the veins of every race loving Negro; it should also breed a resentment that should manifest itself not only in Louisville but through the United States. The editor of The News, Mr. Warley was slapped because he dared to expose the crookedness of the Republicans in their dealing with the race. Editor Warley has been and is now making a very strenuous fight against segregation not only in civic matters in Louisville, but also the segregational policies of the "Lily Whites" who are now in control in that section. Last year he was instrumental in organizing the Lincoln Party, which placed an entire colored ticket in the field in Louisville. The organization of this party caused the Republican party much concern because the Republican candidates must have the Negro vote in order to win Kentucky; therefore, if this vote is alienated from the G. O. P., they stand to lose one seat in the Senate and three in the House. The success of Editor Warley's fight is clearly shown by the ungentlemanly and disgraceful conduct of this white man, J. H. Scales, who is an office holder under the present administration being U. S. "Collector of Revenue" at Louisville. The latest outrage the Republicans in Louisville have forced on the Negro is a separate city park which was opened about a week ago. Editor Warley fought this innovation and pointed out to the people that this would be the forerunner of jim crow street cars and segregation in other public places where the race is now free to go. Because of the activity of Mr. Warley's paper, the Louisville News, in fighting for the rights of the race, the Republican leaders have become fearful lest the Negroes should bolt the ticket and thereby cause the defeat of at least one of the Republican candidates for Congress this fall. Editor Warley has demonstrated that he is no quitter, and this incident should unite the Negroes in Louisville and throughout the United ```markdown ``` THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. SATURDAY, JULY 1, 1922 States into one great body that would wreck its vengeance on the party that heaps so much disrespect and insult on the race. The slap was not aimed at Editor Warley, but at the progressive and self-thinking Negroes of Louisville—men and women who are not willing to stoop to the low levels of Lily-Whiteism that is now sweeping the South apparently with the full support of the president and the party leaders. The slap given Editor Warley was a slap at the entire Negro race. It is but an arrow indicating the way the Anglo-Saxon intends to deal with his darker brother in the future unless he is checked now. Will the Negroes of Louisville, as well as the entire Negro race, permit white men to slap their faces without resenting it with the proper force and action? Will the Negroes in politics permit the bosses to slap their faces and tell them that they (the Negroes) must not do their own thinking and by no means criticize the whites for their short-comings or their faults? Is it not time for the Negro to stop being cuffed about and accepting dictation from other people? Will the Negroes of Louisville show J. H. Scales and his gang that they cannot slap them in their faces and get away with it? Will the Negroes throughout the United States accept this slap or will they join their brothers in Louisville in resenting it This slap should and must be felt for the next three generations yet unborn if the race is to make any material progress. This slap was delivered by Scales, but he was delivering it for the Republican bosses. While this is the first physical slap given the race by this administration, it is not the first indirect slap it has received. Every since President Harding moved into the White House, we have been receiving slaps of various kinds. Will we as a race continue to take them and smile or will we resent them? Will we continually permit Moton, Link Johnson, Roscoe Simmons and others who like to pretend that they represent the race, to go around and preach a doctrine of docility? Is it not time for the race to awake to the dangers that are imminent. Are we a race of people, or, are we just a loosely woven fabrication of individuals? If we are individuals we will say, "Oh well, he did not slap me so why should I worry?" If we are a race of people, we will immediately resent any insult that is hurled at the race regardless of the member who receives it. Will this incident that happened in the private office of Editor Warley die there or will it be the spark that will start the fires of racial unity to burning in the breast of every Negro and eventually start us on the road to racial success and achievements and finally place us in the position which our numbers justify in world affairs? If we are a united race of people, this slap will be felt around the world. If we do not now resent it in an unmistakable way, we may expect more of them in the future.

SHUCKS! By J. Stephen Agenor A- HOME! What is it? Don't Jump, Hurriedly, Excitedly, Conclusively, and Say O, WELL! HOME is WHERE My WIFE and CHILDREN And MYSELF live; The house that I OWN Or PAY rent for; THAT may NOT be a HOME SHUCKS! That HOUSE YOU own and live in, Or pay RENT for to Shelter YOU and YOUR family MAY be an ARENA or A dwelling PLACE of M-I-S-U-N-D-ERSTANDINGS. IT may be the FIRST place YOU are ANXIOUS to get OUT of; Or the LAST place YOU want to enter YOU wouldn't call SUCH a PLACE IS Where There IS LOVE; There is HARMONY; There IS CHEERFULNESS. When times are HARDEST, When SICKNESS lurks. And TENDER care PREVAILS. Where BRIGHT eyed CHILDREN Are CONFIDENT and HAPPY. Where WIFE;—Where HUSBAND; HAND in HAND with UNITED heartbeats Are PLANNING, PRAYING as THEY work To BETTER the CONDITIONS of the BLESSINGS of THEIR union, That's HOME, SHUCKS! OVER THE HOME BREW I raise this glass with steady hand and a clear head, To pledge myself to friends who're not afraid. To say of me; "He is my friend." This friendship brew I gently sip, And as it passes through my lips I breathe to them; "Till death." * * * * Man likes trouble here below And wants it all his life, So to fulfill his earthly wants I toast my wife. * * * * Here's to hard luck, Here's to strife; In toasting them I toast my wfe. * * * * Here's to old friends Dead and gone— They've left us here But not for long.

Churches Comprise One Thirteenth of Race's Wealth The comparison between the number of churches and the number of business places and their comparative value for the 110,000 colored people of Washington is an interesting subject. The directory for Washington gives 133 colored churches and 270 white ones. Comparing the number to population there is one church for every 827 colored persons in Washington, on the basis of 110,000; and there is one church for every 1,241 persons in Washington, for the 335,000 white people. There are 414 more churches for each of their churches than there is for each of the colored churches. That is interesting. We are a church going people. There are fifteen denominations shown among the whites and seven among the colored people of the city. The Baptists lead with 74 churches for the colored people while there are only 27 for whites. The Episcopals, with 50 churches, lead among the whites. There are 46 white Methodist and 36 colored Methodist churches. The economic comparison is the interesting one. In 1873 there were only 4,000 business establishments among the colored people of the United States. That included barber shops, boot-black stands and the whole lay out of small places. In the same year we had 10,000 churches in the country or two and one half times as many churches as we had business places. The value of the church property was $8,000,000 while the total wealth of the colored people in the United States was listed at $50,000,-000; giving about one sixth of the wealth in church property. In 1913 we had 40,000 business places and 40,000 churches or a church for every business place. Our total wealth was $700,000,000 and our church property was listed at $70,000,-000 or one tenth of our wealth was in church property. In 1919, according to the latest Negro Year Book, we here worth $1,-100,000,000 and had church property valued at $85,900,000; or, about one thirteenth of our total wealth. We also had 50,000 business places and 43,000 churches. Unfortunately there is no organization, or source in Washington that can furnish accurate data concerning our business establishments and the amount of capital invested therein. It can be safely said, however, that while the number may exceed the number of churches, the amount of capital invested will not equal one-tenth of the valuation of the churches. Insurance possibly leads in the commercial enterprises and the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, with a capital and surplus of $175,000 and a building valued at $56,000 runs the total up to $231,000 for this institution giving it first place. The Southern Aid Society of Virginia, would come next, with a building that cost $167,000 at the corner of 7th and T Streets. The Whiteclaw Hotel, the Pythian Building and the Murray Casino follow. There are about 24 drug stores here, and giving them an appropriate average of $5,000 for stock and fixtures would run that line up to $120,000. Some of the druggists own the buildings in which their stores are located. There are four large printing plants and several small ones; but possibly the largest individual business with the largest turn-over for the year, is that of the University Supply House, Dr. N. D. Hightower, proprietor, 2014 Georgia Avenue. There is very little capital invested in the grocery, hardware, furniture clothing, shoe and dry goods lines here. Take away the boot-blacks barber-shops, pool rooms and clothes cleaning places which comprise about fifty per cent of the places called "business" and there will not be more establishments than we have churches here. Outside of the insurance, drug and printing business, almost any one of the large colored churches will be worth more than all the capital invested in all of the rest of the business in Washington. On the other hand, the recent statement from the various banks show that there are 49 banks, savings and trust companies in the city, making reports of deposits etc. In this list, only one colored, yet we have a fourth of the population of the District. The total deposits in the 49 banks were $183,080,997.55. Of that amount only $505,655.95 was in our Industrial Bank. The gain in deposits for the 49 banks for the last sixty days was $5,673,936.10, of this enormous a amount only $13,784.13 was gained by the Industrial Bank. The Labor's Savings Bank did not make a report and is not included in this list. Its inclusion would give us two banks, but since no public statement has been made of its deposits we are forced to leave it out of this article. Therefore, we conclude with the statement that the colored people of the United States in general and of Washington in particular are very Stage Whispers Stage Whispers By Quentin Plantation Review headed by Florence Mills will play the Lafayette Theatre, New York, for two weeks.

Alexandria Pastor Honored by Members Shiloh Baptist Church, Alexandria, Va. turned aside in April and honored its pastor Rev. James H. Marshall in celebrating his third anniversary. Rev. Marshall has been laboring at Shiloh for three and a half years and this is the first anniversary for him that has been celebrated. During his administration the people have worked loyally with him and everything they attempted turned to gold. The debt has been paid off the Church, electric lights and steam heat installed, and paid for, the church generally repaired and artistically beautified, carpeted anew, chain brought from the back of the church to the front, the lot back of the church purchased, and above all many souls have been saved and added to the church. Shiloh is now as beautiful as a rose. It is indeed a fit place in which to invite the Holy Spirit. During the anniversary the following preachers participated: Anniversary sermon by Rev. Wm. J. Howard, D.D., of Washington, D. C. Sermons and addresses by Reverends S. B. Ross, O. H. Wood, S. M. Johnson, Wm. M. Fantroy, E. A. Haynes, T. A. Cook of Alex., Va.; James E. Green of Mt.

One of the finest banquets ever held in Alexandria was served by the deaconesses: Mistresses Ellen Jasper, chairman, Annie Whiting, Jane Cartwright, Julia Washington, Letitia Conway, Elizabeth Terrell, Jane Carroll, Anna Gaines. weak where they should be the strongest, in economics. We have placed too much stress upon church building at the expense of the fundamentals of race building and progress. No nation or race has succeeded or amounted to anything in the history of the world without an economic foundation. Economics is the science of business which concerns our fundamental daily life. Commercialism is the supplying of human wants. The business man is concerned with the production and sale of the commodities which supply these wants. Therefore, the future leaders of the race must be the ones who can organize the productive and purchasing power of the race. Conducted by C.

ROBERT COLES (Age 12) ONCE UPON A TIME All good stories seem to start with "once upon a time." Well once upon a time a little brown fox lived in the heart of a forest. This particular forest was right across the road from a dense woods. You didn't know there was any difference between a woods and a forest did you? Neither did I until a little pink dwarf told me so one day. Well in this forest there lived a great big uggly-ugggly-ong-yong. Have you ever seen a uggly-ugggly-ong yong? No. Well a uggly-ugggly-ong-yong is smaller than a buzzo, larger than a rizle-oo, slenderer than a quilquam, stouter than a booowoozer, swifter than a ding dang, cuter than a wee, as gentle as an ada-mon-ill, and wilder than a zute. Now that you understand exactly what an uglygly-uggyly-ong-yong is I'll go on with my story. One day the little grey fox was in the middle of the road playing a beautiful sad piece on his fiddle. If there is anything a uglygly-uggyly-ong-yong dislikes it is fiddle music. It happened that this uglygly-uggyly-ong-yong had that very day, that very evening, that very hour stuck three thorns in each one of his ten paws. You can imagine just how peevishy peevish he was. But the little blue fox didn't know a thing about that. He played and he played and he played. The uglygly-uggyly-ong yong swayed and he swayed until he could sway no longer and he gave a yell so loud until all the radiophones in the world were put out of working order for fifteen hours. The little red fox dropped his fiddle and started to run. He was so frightened he ran clear around the earth and in six minutes, eighteen seconds, and three moments he was right back where he started from. Now this particular fox happened to be the king fox of all the foxes in the world and in the air and under the water, too, if any foxes lived in those two places. This fox's name was Remblouzodo. He had another name but all the animals called him Remblouzodo because his other name was so long and queer. He was not only a king but a nec-roman-cer. He could do magic; make things come out of the air, make cabbages grow on rose bushes, make chestnuts grow on artificial legs and such things as that. No, I'm not getting away from my story. It all simply amounts to this. Remblouzodo had worked some magic and made all the foxes in the world change colors every ten minutes. But alas and alack he was so scared when the angry uggly-uggly-ong-yong frightened him he forgot his magic. Hence, every fox was left the color he happened to be when Remblouzodo made his radio-like trip around the world. Today we have foxes of all colors and every fox in all the world will go sixteen squares out of his way if he knows he is nearing the den of a uggly-uggly-ong-yong. ACHIEVEMENTS By "Rufus P. Turner (Age 14) Have you ever stopped and thought of what the Negro has done for the world? I happened to be reading a public library book called "Knowledge Library" by a writer whose name is Hill. This book states that arithmetic was first, or as near first as we know, used by the colored race. But instead of saying the colored race or Negroes he said: "Counting was invented by the African natives before Christ by counting on their fingers." Then it went on to state some facts concerning the Chinese and their abacus counter. This same book also states that the dark races by using the sling were responsible for the future art of shooting. Do you remember that in December, 1920, a colored man, living in Boston, invented a diving suit made of brass? This man put on his diving suit and made a successful trip in the ocean, deeper than it is known for man to ever have gone before. This man's name was Jackson. Some day I hope there will be Negro inventors ranking with Edison and Marconi. Maybe some of our Tribunites will.

Robinson, twelve years old of 1959 Third Street, northwest, finished the Shaw Junior High School at the recent graduation and is promoted to 2-A Dunbar. She made the three-year course in two years at Shaw and is listed as one of the five on the Honor Roll at the school. LIVES OF GREAT MEN Deeds are not great or small because of the color of men's skins. 'Tis true that men of the colored races are not so well known, nor so much lauded as are the men of the white race. That is because public notice is censured, and distributed by the white press. Deeds worthy of special commendation, though kept from the light, always, sooner or later, become known, and the world gives praise where it should be given, and honor where honor is due. (Continued next week) POETICAL SELECTIONS This department was crowded out last week so we are presenting some of the Tribunites' favorite poetical selections. If you have favorite selections of poetry please send them in to the Page. We will publish such selections the first Saturday in each month instead of on the last Saturday as formerly announced. Any poetry is acceptable but when selections taken from Negro writers are submitted please state the fact. Dear Editor: I guess there are a few boys and girls my age who will enjoy the following poem as I have enjoyed it. —HINTON DULANEY (Age 11) TWO VISITS By N. E. M. Hatheway The fire in the kitchen was out, The clock told that midnight was past; The cook was in bed and asleep, And the door of the pantry was fast; When six little mischievous mice A-strolling for plunder and play Came in by a hole in the wall They had gnawed for the purpose that day. First Sharp Tooth and Spry hurried through, Followed closely by Pry Nose and Fuzz; And lastly came Shy Toes and Sleek— Then, oh, what a fricole there was! They danced on the best china plates— These six little mischievous mice; They nibbled the fruit-cake and pies; They scattered the sugar and rice. With nothing to startle or harm, They kept up their frolic and feast Till the stars faded out of the sky, And morning appeared in the east. When they came to the pantry again, They spied in the midst of the floor A structure of wire and wood Unseen on their visit before. It seemd to their curious eyes, Well fitted for pleasure and ease, With six little rooms; and each one Had tables of bacon and cheese. They viewed it around and around, They snuffed the sweet smells with delight "Tis a house built for us," they ex- claimed, "And we were expected tonight!" Then Sharp Tooth and Spry and the rest With nothing to make them afraid, Crept into the six little rooms Where supper was waiting and— stayed. They came to the pantry no more, For this was the end of them all; And the cook nailed a stout piece of Tin on the hole they had made in the wall. Mr. Frazier: Here is a poem written by a colored lady, Frances Ellen Watkins who used to write poems and novels. She was born in Baltimore in 1825. It is said that the poem I've copied here was published in an English journal about 1846. ETHIOPIA By Francis E. Watkins Yes, Ethiopia yet shall stretch Her bleeding hands abroad; Her cry of agony shall reach The burning throne of God. The tyrant's yoke from off her neck, His fetters from her soul, The mighty hand of God shall break And spurn the base control. Redeemed from dust, and fresh from chains Her sons shall lift their eyes. From lofty hills and verdant plains Shall shouts of triumph rise. Upon the dark despairing brow Shall play a smile of peace, For God shall bend unto her woe, And bid her sorrows cease. 'Neath sheltering vines and stately palms Shall laughing children play, And aged sires, with joyous psalms Shall gladden every day. Secure by night and blest by day Shall pass her happy hours: No human tigers hunt for prey Within her peaceful bowers. Then, Ethiopia, stretch, O, stretch Thy bleeding hands abroad, Thy cry of agony shall reach And find the throne of God. Dear Mr. Frazier: Mother suggested that I send in this poem which was written by a colored Washington poet. CLAUDE E. GOWENS (Age ?) By James D. Corrothers Oh, sweet as an orient "Maid o' the moon," With wild roses in her dark hair, Entranced by the magical minstrel June, May stands in her garden fair. For June, the herald of summer gay, Is prince of its minstrelsy; And never a monarch of ancient day Wore gaudier robes than he. Over the hills comes the minstrel June, Perfuming and thrilling the air; Sweet May will sink on his breast a-swoon, And die as he holds her there. Dear Editor: This is not a poem but there is such a good lesson in it I would like for you to publish it. I read it a long time ago in a farm magazine. INEZ BUTLER, (Age 13). Strive To Do Better Up in the state of New York a man, a good many years ago, began to make hammers. The tools he turned out were well liked by those who had occasion to use them. There was something about them that led carpenters especially to seek them. On a certain day some one said to the maker of these good hammers: "You make a good hammer, sir." "A good hammer!" came back the quick response, "I never made a good hammer in my life. I make the best hammer in the world." And yet, after that he put a number of touches to his hammer that made it still more perfect and more to be desired. He was not satisfied with the hammer he made today; toorrow he must make a better one. If we could know the truth of the matter, the probability is that he kept right on making his hammer better and better. That is the way it is with every farmer who really loves his work. Of one farmer we know, the neighbors say: "He is not happy unless he is doing something to make his place look better and the land more productive." Ambition always prods men just that way. It won't let them sit down at the half-way post. The world owes all it is today, and all it ever will be, to the men who are determined to make a better hammer today than they made yesterday.

The account given elsewhere in this issue of interviews with three Sena- tors this week show new interpreta- tions of the Dyer Bill and bears out the position of The Tribune that the Dyer Bill will probably not pass; but if passed, it will not bring the de- sired relief. Senator Borah stated that he was astounded at the silence of the white pulpit in regard to the prevalent lynch- ings and that sentiment would have to be worked up in favor of law and order before this bill would be en- forced, even if it passed the Senate. The enforcement of the Dyer Bill would be in the hands of the same people who do the lynching and for that reason it would prove as futile as have the efforts to secure evidence against the persons responsible for the Herrin, Illinois affair. The Dyer Bill would not cover a ease like that, for the victims of that mob were not in the custody of the sheriff. It is deplorable that the colored people have been worked up to believe that they would receive so very much from the Dyer Bill when in reality there would come precious little if any relief by the passage of this bill. ‘There is no need for colored people to continue to kid themselves along and feel that they are being benefited by this bill. The Tribune stated last fall that this was mainly a political move on the part of Mr. Dyer and the House in general because of the close call the Republicans will have fn the forthcoming election. The N. A. A. C. P. would have gained far more glory and rendered a greater service to have continued their fight for the relief of Haiti from American oppression, than it is going to get out of this Dyer Bill fight. For when the people fully awaken to the futility of the Dyer Bill and the wast- ing of their money in the effort to get it enacted, the worm will begin to turn and the N. A. A. C. P. may regret that it spent so much energy, time and the people’s money in rain- bow chasing. Of course the Association must have something to keep their cause before BORAH POINTS OUT DAN- GERS IN DYER BILL (Osntinned from page) . the state in which the effense occurred and then the sheriff; that the vietim must be in the hands of the sheriff before the state could hold the sheriff responsible for negligence of duty al- though more than three-fourths of the victims were caught and executed befére the sheriff had arrested them. Hence the Dyer Bill, if passed, would only reach a possible one fourth of the persons lynched, and the state and sheriff could easily dodge even “that responsibility. ‘As a remedy, Senator Borah sug- gested a. constitutional amendment, linked up with an educational provis6, the child labor proviso and a human protection clause. He stated that this had been discussed by his committee, the sub-committee of the Judiciary Committee, and that they were con- templating introducing such an a- mendment. ‘ ‘The personnel of the committee that called on Senator Borah was as fol- lows: Representing the A. M. E. Zion Church—Rev. H. J. Callis, of Wash- ington; Dr. W. J. Walls, editor of The Star of Zion, Charlotte, N. C.; C. C. Alleyne, N. Y.; representing the A. M, E. Church—Rev. R. A. Singleton, of Georgia; Rev. C. A. Wingfield, of Georgia; and Rev. J. H. Smith, of Ga.; representing the C. M. E. Church— Dr. W. Y. Bell, of N. ¥., Rév. L. A. Brown, of Ohio and Rev, T. H. Cope- land, of Kentucky. On Wednesday a delegation of the three churches called on Senators Nel- son and Cummings in the interest of the same bill. ~ Senator Nelson said that he felt that the bill was a gold brick and he could not see that it would benefit the race in its present form. Senator Cummings pointed out the shortcoming of the bill and said that he proposed the following amend- ment to sections four and five: Strike out, after the word “therein,” the remainder of section 4 and sub- stitute the following: Provided, That it shall be charged in the indictment that by reason of the failure, neglect, or refusal of the of- ficers of the State charged with the duty of prosecuting such offense under the laws of the State to apprehend or THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, JULY 1, 1922 the people. But take the record and see what has really been accomplished by this organization, for the race. Sure there has been much accom- plished for DuBois, Johnson, Pickens, et al; but for the race, for whom the N.A.A.CP. claims to exist, let's see: Some years ago it took up the fight against “jim crowism” on the rail- roads. Can you mention a single train from which it removed ‘a jim crow car? Not a single one. Jn 1918 the fight was inaugurated against segregation in the various de- partments here in Washington. A big meeting was held at Metropolitan A. M, E. Church and Mr. Villard was advertised to speak. ‘There were more people in the street than there were in the church, Did the N, A. A. C. P. stop, remedy or help in any way to prevent segregation in the depart- ments? Isn't there just as much seg- regation in the departments here to- day as there was in 1913? But do you hear anything from the N. A. A. C, P. on the matter? No, for they are chasing the lynching-bee rainbow. About eight years ago they took up lynching in earnest, Now they have an anti-lynching bill before the Con- gress of the United States, which was termed “a gold brick” by two Sena- tors this week. Furthermore, colored people have been worked up to the point that they feel this bill will bring the greatest relief possible. This sentiment has gone to the extent that any one who dares say that the Dyer Bill will not give relief nor will stop mob action, invites the malediction of the masses. Of course the N. A. A. C. P. must have a slogan with which to rally its members and induce new persons to Join the organization. But suppose the | Dyer Bill passes. Then, the first time it is brought into action against a state, there will be a long drawn out a action, to prove its constitution- ality. Money will be needed to press this fight for the next five or ten years ‘and who is going to furnish it but the common people? Carrying on the struggle will be mighty hard on those 'who must pay the frieght. punish such participants the State has denied to its citizens the equal protec- tion of the laws. A failure for more than thirty days after the commission of such offense to apprehend the per- sons guilty thereof shall beprimafacie evidence that the State has denied to its citizens the equal protection of the law. It shall not be necessary that the jurisdictional allegations herein required shall be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, and it shall be sufficient if such allegations are sus- tained by a preponderance of the evi- dence.

SEC'Y HAWKINS MAKES 4 SPLENDID REPORT (Continued from page 1) 582.73, Of this amount $2,554,309.94 ‘was reported under the administration of the present Secretary, Mr. Hawkins. Since the last General Conference, which met in St. Louis, May, 1920, the amount of Dollar Money reported through the office of the Financial Sec. retary is, $650,416.89; the amount for the last fiscal year is $328,936.28, ail of which has been disbursed in keeping | with the law and properly accounted for by vouchers covering each and every item as exhibited in the report of the auditing committee, in the fol- lowing language: ee “After a careful and extended re- ‘view of the handling of the moneys of ‘the department, it gives us great, ‘pleasure to report that every item has been verified and the books and ‘vouchers were found to be accurate ‘in every detail which they covered. We. -also wish to record our approval of the business like methods of our secretary ‘and the Financial Board. We ‘feel ‘that we are to compliment ourselves [upon having so able and efficient an ‘officer as Dr. John R. Hawking)’ to _ handle and disburse with such constm- ‘mate skill so large an amount of mon- \ey. His report.is not only a source of | great satisfaction to us, but also a rac- ‘ial triumph in the business world.” | One noticeable feature of the report jot Secretary Hawkins is that it gives account of the new Pension System inaugurated by him and incorporated in the Book of Discipline, under the name of The “Hawkins Pension Plan.” Under this plan all of the superan- nuated or retired ministers, widows |and orphans of deceased ministers ‘are |paid a regular stipend every quatter. |At present, there are 462 retired min-| isters, 1,056 widows, and 435 orphans under fourteen years of age. The a- mount paid these beneficiaries within the last two years since the inaugu-| ration of this plan is $136,671,23. : This does not include any money raised in churches for local purposes or for payment of salaries of presi ing elders and pastors, nor does it inelude any of the thousands of dol- Jars raised on General Days for Mis-, sion Work and Church Extension, Edu- cational Day in September for our schools and colleges, and, too, the thousands of dollars raised in our special rallies. This is a splendid tri- bute to the loyalty and faithfulness of | the members of the A. M. E. Chureh. Dr. Hartwell Beirevee has just re- turned from a visit to Altoona, Pa., with his daughter, Miss Anne. ‘ Mrs. Murdock and daughter, Miss Bessie are planning to spend the sam- mer in Altoona, Pa.

E. was given a “black eye” by Bishop C. H. Phillips, of the C. M. E. Chureh, when he stated that his church ,at the recent General Gon- ference in St. Louis, did not authorize them to participate in negotiations on organic union, at this meeting. Bishop Phillips personally opposes it. = « At a meeting Wednesday night, at Israel C. M. E. Church, -he said: “We are not going to haye union now. .

The Negro Churches are nc ready for this organic union. We go away without having accomplished anything.” The meeting was opened Tuesday by Bishop Chappelle of the A. M. E. Chureh. Later on in the day Bishop Caldwell, of the Zion connection, ‘took the chair. There were a number of bishops, preachers’ and general officers of the three.connections here who were not accredited commissioners, since there ‘were to be only eight delegates from each denomination. In fact there were here seven of the C. M. E. bishops; nine of the A .M: E. and five A. M. E, Z. Besides the bishops, there were present a number of general officers, suc hase ditors of the denomination- ‘al papers, educational and financial secretaries, ete., from each denomina- tion. Most of the A. M. E. commissioners left Tuesday evening and night. Not any “of them were present at the welcome meeting Tuesday night at John Wesley Church. Dr. E. D. W. Jones presided at the welcome meet- ing. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, delivered the welcome address on behalf of the city. Dr. Channing H. Tobias spoke fo r the Methodist Churches and Prof. John R. Hawkins was to have spoken for the'laity, but failed to appear. A reception followed the program in the Sunday School rooms of the church. Wednesday at one o'clock, the bish- ops and delegates called on the Presi- dent. It was a perfunetory hand-shak- ing affair and no message from this representative body was left with’ the, President. 7 The meeting was to have been for two days but ended the afternoon of the first day, Tuesday.
