Vol. 2, No. 38 Bathing Bea Negr "TIDAL BASIN OR NO BEACH" POPULAR SLOGAN Plan to Locate Beach in Virginia Started by Col. Sherrill WEEKS HAS FINAL SAY Will Reserve Decision Until Opponents are Given Hearing The re-instating of an item of $25,000 in the District appropriation bill to be used for the construction and maintenance of an exclusive colored bathing beach, to be erected at the Virginia end of the new Key bridge, has caused widespread comment and criticism. The problem of establishing a jim crow bathing beach has been under discussion for over two years. The project has been bitterly fought by every civic and commercial organization controlled by colored people in Washington. Time and time again the proposed site of the beach has been moved by the District authorities in hopes of finding enough colored people to endorse it so as to justify locating of a beach; but each time the protests have been so strenuous until a change of plan would have to be made. Now the latest move is to locate the jim crow beach over in Virginia. Already the United Civic Centers committee has protested this site, even before the District bill was up in Congress and Secretary of War Weeks promised that he would not locate the beach in Virginia. The committee from the Civic Centers Association issued a report of their interview with Mr. Weeks which was published in this paper last fall. The committee representing the Civic Center of Affiliated Association of the District of Columbia, conferred with the Secretary of War last fall and assured him that under no consideration would any location for a bathing beach other than on the Tidal Basin, he accepted by the colored citizens as long as the Tidal Basin was used for bathing purposes. Mr. W. D. Dixon, president of the Civic Center says that no doubt was left in the Secretary's mind as to the stand taken by his committee last June when they called on him and maintained throughout the five meetings held with Secretary Weeks after that date, calling for a beach on "The Tidal Basin" or no beach. Mr. Nixon further impressed Mr. Weeks with the fact that the Negro citizens of the District of Columbia, who constitute one-fourth of its population, are denied a beach on the Tidal Basin, which is government property. The colored people would rather see the $25,000 revert back to the U. S. Treasury than have a beach anywhere else as long as the Tidal Basin is used for bathing. The committee also made it plain to Mr. Weeks that when the present beach is removed from the Tidal Basin as indicated by the Secretary, they would expect a colored beach to share in the new location. The plan to locate the beach in Virginia is principally fostered by Col. Sherrill, in charge of public buildings WASHINGTON'S FAVORITE B This Coupon May be Exchanged at THE HOWARD THE For TEN VOTES in addition to the Votes.

The Wage Earners Association is a democratic organization in which unskilled laborers, domestic workers, business and professional women are banded together to build up an effective organization to promote pride of occupation, skillful service, industrial ideals and to protect the special and general interests of the millions of unprotected, hard-working women. Every woman who is a wage earner is eligible to membership. Membership secretaries will work in every section of the city soliciting members. The inclement weather the first of this week somewhat hampered this house to house canvassing, but all workers are expected to get started by the end of the week. One of the many interesting features of the association will be a factory which is proposed. This factory is to make and supply appropriate uniforms for working women, and will be a profit-sharing enterprise. It will be known as the mail order department of the association. Among the products to be turned out will be every-day dresses, uniforms, aprons, and caps. Headquarters during the membership drive are at 920 U Street Northwest, in the Murray Brothers Building, with Mrs. Sadie T. Henson in charge. Every member of the association is asked to get 10 other members during the drive. The organization is national in scope and is headed by Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. THURSTON CAFE. Another cafe has been added to the U Street section. Mr. J. H. Thurston has opened a first-class cafe at 1940 Ninth Street Northwest. Mr. Thurston was formerly in business on L Street, between Connecticut Avenue and Eighteenth Street. Mr. Thurston has been in the cafe business for a long time and has made a reputation for excellent and satisfactory service combined with the best prepared food. and grounds in the District. Sherill is a Wilson holdover and hails from North Carolina. Apparently he has had the backing of President Harding in his plan to jim crow the District. A separate bathing beach is not the first evidence of Sherill's desire to foster race prejudice as he has on several occasions tried to post jim crow signs in the public parks. Secretary of War Weeks has the final say as to the location of the beach and he stated the week that he would not take final action until he had heard from the colored people who are directly interested. Several delegations are expected to vigorously protest the placing of the beach. Colored residents of the city of New Bern, N. C., whose homes were burned in the recent disastrous fire, are fighting an attempt by white citizens to prevent their rebuilding their homes through condemnation proceedings which would turn the colored section into a cemetery and park, according to announcement today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York. Reports from New Bern state that the colored residents have not been permitted to rebuild their homes. A statement sent to the Advancement Association by a competent nevstigator asserts: "The city of New Bern is determined the burnt area shall not be rebuilt by or for Negroes. It is proposed to condemn the land, ostensibly for cemetery and park purposes, but this is openly winked at as a subterfuge to get rid of the Negro property owner. In the meanwhile no building is permitted in the burned district and no provision is being made for a suitable location elsewhere: You can see the hardship this works on the lot owners, in many cases all they have is tied up in this real estate, which will be a long time in litigation in the condemnation proceedings." It is asserted that the city of New Bern lacks the necessary funds for condemnation proceedings thus proving the measure to be a subterfuge to prevent the colored residents rebuilding their homes. Appeals to the white community having failed the colored citizens have employed lawyers and are attempting by injunction to prevent the condemnation and seizure of their land. In the course of the fight by colored residents to retain their property and home sites, resolutions were passed and published in a local newspaper on the anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, protesting against the injustice being done New Bern colored citizens, and stating: "The proposed condemnation for park and cemeteries will work a grievous hardship and injustice upon the colored people, making it impossible for many of them ever to build again in improved and sanitary localities accessible to the conveniences enjoyed by the average white taxpayer." MRS. QUIVERS TO APPEAR IN RECITAL. Washington's music lovers are all agog over the announcement of the presentation of Mrs. Virginia Berry Quivers in a song recital in the Parish Hall of St. Mary's P. E. Church on Twenty-third Street, between G and H Streets Northwest. Mrs. Quivers is one of the Capital's most promising solists. She has appeared on several local programs and her work has been highly praised by both music critics and lovers. Her work in the "Atonement" rendered by the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Society at the First Congregational Church last fall, won for her a lasting place in the hearts of all who heard her. Mrs. Quivers is formerly of Baltimore and possesses a beautiful soprano voice. The recital will be under the auspices of the Women's Guild of St. Mary's P. E. Church, Monday evening, February 12. Tickets are now on sale. MASONIC TEMPLE The actual steel construction of the substructure of the Masonic Temple to be erected at the corner of Tenth and U Streets Northwest was begun Tuesday, when the steel workers began erecting the derricks necessary to handle the steel beams. Four carloads of steel are on the ground for this part of the building. ASSAILS RACE FOR USE OF CARS, PARKS, STREETS Georgian's Speech Really Paid Tribute to Northern Negro The recent refusal of the Harvard officials to permit the son of Roscoe C. Bruce to live in the freshman dormitory at that great institution of learning gave Representative Lankford of Georgia a great chance to deliver a regular craker Congressman's speech in the House of Representatives last Saturday. So happy was the "rosin chewer" from Georgia over the action of Prof. Lowell in barring young Bruce from Harvard, he just had to give vent to his feelings before his colleagues in the House. Lankford's speech was aimed at the Negroes in Washington in particular and the Negroes in the North in general. However, his speech when thoroughly analyzed is more of a compliment to Negroes in Washington and the North than it is a slur. Like most southereners, Lankford is obsessed with the idea that all Negroes are like the Uncle Toms of slavery-time fame. A Negro who can think, act and fight is an impossible creature according to the Ku Klux and Lankford's school of thought. So absorbed are the whites in this class in putting out propaganda about their great supremacy (? until they have completely failed to see the great progress made by the Negro race; the only Negroes they know are the ones who live in a little log cabin back of a big house and is perfectly contented to cook, wash, iron and do everything else asked of them by the whites and in return receive only a few paltry dollars a month and some cast-off clothing. This type of Negro is known only in the South and even now only in small towns and villages and in the rural sections. Not any of them can read or write and freedom comes only to them when death closes their eyes. This is the type of Negro Lankford knows. He knows nothing of the Negro who goes to Harvard, therefore it is impossible for him to conceive of a Negro above the type of the ones who serve him in the wilderness of Georgia, where savages burn human beings at the stake and drag lifeless forms through the streets of their villages and make merry over it, where Negroes are held in a state of slavery that is more damning than chattel slavery prior to the Civil War. After reading what Lankford had to say many Tribune readers will say that Lankford is crazy, but when you stop and consider that Lankford is but one of a large group of southerners who actually believe that God singled them out and made them superior to any one else in the world. However, as the radiant light of civilization gradually peeks through moss-covered oaks of an ignorant and superstitious South, this type of batty creatures who abound in that section will gradually diminish. Lankford's remarks as recorded in the Congressional Record of January 20 are as follows: Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the committee, the newspapers of the country have given much publicity to the decision of Professor Lowell of Harvard University in which he refused to allow a Negro to board in a dormitory with white students. Professor Lowell is right as far as he goes, but he does not go far enough. There is, though, in his reasoning the idea which if expanded and enlarged means the solution to a large extent of the race question. What I shall say now is not for the purpose of stirring up bitternes between the races, but for the purpose of defending Professor Lowell's position and showing that he at least has a glimpse of the true light on this question. I want to quote the newspaper item on Professor Lowell's decision, but before doing so I want to Senator Capper Introduces Bill That Would Make the Separation of Races National Senate Bill No. 4394 to Provide Uniform Regulation of Marriages and Divorces, Would Bar All Marriages Between Races WHITE REALTOR HELD ON EMBEZ ZLEMENT CHARGE At a preliminary hearing held Monday at the Police Court charges of embezzlement were preferred by the District Attorney against Ralph D. Reeves, of Texas, a member of the Supreme Court bar and president of the Reeves Guaranty Company, with offices at 1319 F Street Northwest. The most important complaining witness for the government and one of those who brought the matter to the attention of the District Attorney and caused Reeves' arrest was a colored man, Hillary Berry. Mr. Berry alleges that being desirous of purchasing a house which required $1,000 and having but $600 to spend on a house he applied to the Reeves Guaranty Co., which had advertised the purchase of homes for clients on easy terms. Mr. Berry charges that Reeves, through one of his agents, received from him $600 promising to purchase immediately the house in question. A month after this no move had been made to buy the house and Mr. Reeves himself on being interviewed promised to return the money. Promise after promise made to the Secretary of the Washington Real Estate Board and others who were representing Mr. Berry failed to materialize. Reeves' arrest and subsequent indictment for the grand jury came as a result. Standard Loan Investment Company The Standard Loan and Investment Company, the owners of the large plot of ground on Fourteenth Street, near U Street Northwest, has moved into their own office at 1918 Fourteenth Street. They have remodeled the room and made it into five office rooms which presents a creditible showing for the company. This gives office space for five concerns on one of the most prominent streets in the city and particularly one of the most prominent in the famous northwest section. Prof. J. Y. Joyner, the manager of the company, is in the charge of the office. The Supreme Life and Casualty Company of Columbus, Ohio, have opened their offices in this building with Mr. A. P. Bentley, of Memphis, Tenn., in charge of the work in the District. Mr. S. H. Rose, the real estate dealer and broker, has moved into one of the offices. He was formerly with the Union Laborers Bank. He was temporarily located on U Street near Fourteenth until the place was remodeled. The Universal Development and Loan Company, operating the Suburban Gardens, have made their up-town office into this building and will operate from there. With these various business offices in this building it adds to the importance of the Standard's sagacity in opening this place for offices instead of the Greek restaurant they had in there. The rentals from the eight store rooms on the Standard's property is sufficient to take care of their obligations. They paid off the second trust on the place last year and the company is in excellent condition. They are contemplating improving the vacant ground which they have but it seems a problem as to just what improvement they will make. Office: 920 U St., N. W. ight congressman on of Alley Introduces would Make the of Races National Provide Uniform Regu- and Divorces, Would es Between Races Senator Capper of Kansas, who at times has been classed as a progressive and a friend of the Negro, joined the ranks of those who desire to make racial segregation national by introducing a Federal marriage bill which is aimed at marriages between opposite races. Senator Capper introduced his bill in the Senate January 23, S. 4934, and it was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. The part of Senator Capper's bill that relates to marriages between races is found in section 4, page 3 and lines 3, 4, 5 and 6, which reads as follows: "No license to marry shall be issued to one" "where the applicants are members of different races; that is to say, marriage between members of the white and black or of the white and yellow races, shall not be valid." Just why Senator Capper has decided to try to foster national segregation is not known. Such measures heretofore have been sponsored by rabid southerners and such organizations as the Ku Klux Klan. POTOMAC INVESTMENT CO. On Saturday evening, January 13, the Potomas Investment Company, Inc., held its annual meeting of stockholders in the offices of the company, 612 T Street Northwest. Though only two years old, this progressive organization has made rapid strides in acquiring something tangible and establishing itself in the hearts and confidence of the public. The company now owns the two buildings, 610 and 612 T Street Northwest, besides other valuable investments. The report of the secretary-treasurer showed a handsome profit on the right side of the ledger. Officers Electored Mr. R. D. Webster, of Sayville, N. Y., the representative of the company for the State of New York, was down for the annual meeting. He reported good results with the expansion plan that the company is undertaking in the Empire State. Prof. Levi S. Gee, of the Laurinburg Normal Institute, Laurinburg, N. C., on account of his marriage during the holidays and the honeymoon trip, was not able to attend. Officers and directors elected for the year were: President, J. Franklin Wilson; first vice president, James F. McCauley; second vice president, George A. Washington; secretary-treasurer, A. L. Taylor; auditor, Samuel J. Knights; trust officers, Robert R. Stewart and Attorney John R. McCormick. The above with Charles T. Terry, Jr., and H. V. McCormick constitute the board of directors. The annual smoker of the company will be given the latter part of February. FIFTH ANNUAL SOUTHWESTERN STUDENT CONFERENCE. New York, N. Y.—The International Y. M. C. A. headquarters, cooperating with State and local associations, has just announced that the fifth annual summer student conference for the southwest, comprising the States of Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, West Tennessee will convene at Coleman College, Gibsland, La., May 4-14, 1923. Delegates will come from more than 60 student associations in as many schools and colleges. Expert leaders in association work, religion, social welfare and race relationships will conduct the conference. Foreign delegates and leaders from Cuba, Jamaica, South Africa and Japan will be present. Mr. William Curtis Craver, the international representative for this field, is the executive secretary of the conference.

Waldron Asks Commissioners ta Float a Bond Issue EXTEND TIME ONE YEAR Seeks to Establish Zones; to Close One Third Each Year The question of evicting the alley dwellers came up again before the District Commissioners this week for discussion and resulted in a plea being forwarded to Congress asking for an extension of time for the clearing of the alleys. Daniel E. Garges, secretary to the District commission, is asking for an extension from June 1st this year, which was the time set last year for closing the alleys, to November of 1924. Garges said evictions next June would work hardship in the city because there are no low-priced houses to absorb the 15,000 alley dwellers, most of whom are colored, and no prospects of building them at present construction cost. Rev. Waldron, or Shiloh Baptist Church, and head of an organization to assist those who must move, the Alley Improvement Association, is anxious to have Congress permit the floating of a bond issue of $6,000,000 and use the money to build houses for these people to occupy when they leave the alleys. Rev. Waldron also proposes to have the alleys zoned and close one zone at a time, thereby giving the people a chance to find places without working hardships on them. To put 15,000 people out at once would cause untold suffering. Another plan is to extend the evictions to cover a period of three years, closing one-third of the alley houses a year. There is little doubt that Congress will not grant this extension of time. The housing among colored in Washington is now acute and to force 15,000 more people to find places would cause a calamity. Supreme Life Gets Started in Washington The Supreme Life & Casualty Company, under the direction of Mr. Bently, formerly opened offices at 1918% Fourteenth Street Northwest, this week. The company expects to start its agents out the last of this week or the first of next to writing business. The Supreme Life and Casualty Company was organized under the laws of Ohio. It is promoted and financed entirely by Negroes and is headed by men who have had years of experience in the insurance business. The company issues ordinary, endowment and limited payment old line legal reserve life and casualty insurance policies. The new company will make a strong bid for business in Washington. ATTY. CHAS.

"Within the last two or three year there has been growing evidence that some men dislike to be termed Negroes. This dislike, we are certain grows out of the respect Anglo-Saxon civilization extorts from her subjects. Black is odious because white is dominant, but in the earlier ages, white might have been odious because black was dominant. When Egypt was supreme, it was no disgrace to be black. Many of the Pharaohs, the product of ancient monarchs, were Negroes. The early culture of Babylon and Nineveh, was the culture of the Negro. The brother-in-law of Alexander the Great, one of the three greatest conquerors was a Negro. Negroes fought under Hannibal in the Punic wars. Jugurtha was a Negro. Negro soldiers helped to establish the supremacy of Islam in North America and early Spain. Great leaders of Mohammedan civilization were Negroes. "And during more recent times Tousaint L'Overture the great Haitian liberator, was a Negro. Ponshkin, the mighty Russian poet, was a Negro and Alexandre Dumas, the greatest of romantic novelists, was a Negro. Ira Aldridge, the tragedian, who had no nivals in the role of Othella, was a Negro. Benjamin Banneker, the mathematician was a Negro. And today, William Stanley Braithwaite, whose sympathetic criticisms raised the standard of poetry during a commercial age, is a Negro. Booker T. Washington, whose death is still fresh in the minds of the American people, has not yet descended from the pedestal of the world's greatest industrial educator and he was a Negro. The heroes of the Boston Massacre, Bunker Hill, New Orleans, Richmond, San Juan, El Caney, and Carrizal were Negroes. Menelik, whose Abyssinian army crushed that of Italy, was a Negro. "So far as world culture is concerned, Benin, a Negro kingdom, led in art, Yorubia of West Africa excelled in the terra-cotta industry. Uganda was long powerful in her portion of the African continent. "We have not told you all, but we have told you enough to convince you that the Negro is an ancient race. Slavery was not peculiar to the Negro, he has held and has been held in bondage as all other races have held and have been held. He has achieved, is achieving and will achieve. "It is useless to search for new terms, thinking that therein you may escape being a Negro. Bear the cross lift your head; be proud that you can wear the name of a race that preceded Egypt and was building cities at the same time China was laying the foundation of her civilization. "It is a privilege God grants to be a Negro." PERTINENT PARAGRAPHS. By Booker 1. Washington. I would set no limits to the attainments of the Negro in arts, in letters or statesmanship, but I believe the surest way to reach those ends is by laying the foundation in the little things of life that lie immediately about one's door. I plead for industrial education and development for the Negro not because I want to cramp him, but because I want to free him. I want to see him enter the all-powerful business and commercial world.

The corporation counsel is the creature of the Commissioners. The whage limit of $2,000 for teachers was discussed. This was brought about because the bill before Congress is being discussed in the sub-committee on appropriations regarding the excessive raise of the superintendent over the proportionate of the grade teachers.

SCHOOLS Relief from the crowded condition that now prevails in the public schools here is promised if the items included in the District appropriation bill reported out of committee this week by Senator Phipps are passed. Several of the school items that were cut out of the bill in the House were replaced in the Senate. FOUR SCHOOLS TO RECEIVE ADDITIONS. The District bill provides for additions to four schools, which when completed, will make them among the most complete and modern in the District. The schools to benefit by the appropriation are: Armstrong Manual Training School; $200,000 to continue the construction of an addition to the main building. Garnet-Patterson School; $50,000 for the purchase of land adjoining the school grounds for the constructing of an addition to the group. Dunbar High School; $100,000 for the purchase of land adjoining the school upon which an addition is to be erected. Fifty thousand dollars is asked for the purchase of a new site on which to locate a junior high school between Twentieth Street and Rock Creek and K and O Streets Northwest or vicinity. When completed this will give the colored group two junior high schools. JOHN F. COOK SCHOOL TO BE REPLACED. For the purchase of additional land adjacent to John F.

Streets (Continued from page 1) quote from what I said on the race question on this floor on the 18th day of January, 1922, just a year ago. I want to show that the professor of the great New England university is coming to the viewpoint of the South on this great question, which is the only correct viewpoint. This question would be practically solved if no one would mess with it except those who are familiar with it. Professor Lowell says in brief, "we do not owe him," speaking of the Negro, "to force him and the white into social relations that are not or may not be mutually congenial." Writing further, Professor Lowell says that to do so "far from doing him good would increase a prejudice that is probably growing." This is the truth, but not the whole truth. The time is fast coming it is here, when everyone, white or black, North or South, who thinks about this great question must agree that every time the Negro faces himself or is forced by others into places where the white race does not welcome him he injures the Negro race by offending the white race. The Negro race must succeed by being courteous and not by being offensive. If he attends a white school, he injuries his race by creating a bitterness against his people. If the white students of the school stand for it, the white people of the Nation as a whole do not approve of it and condemn the people in charge of the school who permit it. Professor Lowell has caught a glimpse of the light. He and his school need more light. Negroes ought not to attend his school at all. The so-called "Jim Crow" law which makes whites and Negroes ride in separate coaches on trains, use separate seats in street cars, and use separate waiting rooms at the stations is a most excellent law for both races. In the South neither race extends in the least the other while traveling. The white man with his family starts for a trip, goes and returns and thinks no less of the Negro race after his return. In the North a white family is, while traveling, all the while face to face with the impudence, the insults, and the offensive conduct of the northern Negro, who takes special delight in being offensive to the white race with whom he feels equal and to whom he feels superior. You can not tell me the white people of the North all do not want to associate with Negroes. The same feeling we have in the South is here and is growing rapidly. The best thing the Negro race could do for itself would be to say: "Give us separate cars, separate waiting rooms, separate parks, separate schools, separate libraries, and separate sections of town to live in. We do not want to offend the white people in the least. They are our friends. We are theirs. We plead and are willing to live for a still better feeling between the races." This would help mightily the situation. A school library was finished last year here in Washington, and the men in control said they wanted the Negroes and whites all to use it, and said it was a library for all. I thought how wrong they are. It will not be a library for all. It will be a library for two classes only, namely, the white people who want to associate with Negroes and the Negroes who want to be offensive and who delight in forcing the white man to deal with him as an equal. There will be no place at this library for the white person who does not want to associate with Negroes and no place for the Negroes who do not want to do anything which will offend the white man, if there are any such Negroes in Washington. I believe the Negroes teach their children here to be as offensive to the whites as possible. The old and the young of the Negro race here are doing well their part of building up a contempt of the White race for the Negroes. On street cars, on railway trains, and in passenger waiting rooms, where the two races are forced to occupy the same seats and sit side by side, there is built up a race hatred that will eventually make the Negro bitterly hated by the White race, and which hatred will go far toward the destruction of the Negro race. The Negro race must have the good will of the White race in order to exist among the White race. The Negro can only live in white United States by the grace of the white man. Why the Negroes do not strive in season and out of season for the good will of the white man by which good will the Negroes only can live. I do not know. Many Negroes of the South see in the white man their friend and are day by day building up a good feeling between the races. The Negroes of the South are making themselves a place by being courteous and polite to the white man and his folks. The Negroes of the North are destroying the chance they have by attempting to force themselves where they are not wanted and by being insolent and offensive. Many Negroes in the South would not under any circumstances come in at the front door of a white home unless specifically requested to do so. They do not want to use a white waiting room or ride on a train in the white coach if it offends the white man or white woman or white child in the least. These kind of Negroes are the saving power of the Negro race. You have very few or none of them in the North. The average Negro of the North takes a special pride in making himself offensive to the white race. He wants to ride with the white folks. He wants to use the same waiting room. He wants to use the same libraries, the same schools, and the same boarding house. He wants to live in the white neighborhood of the towns. He wants to do all this not because he loves the white folks but because he hates the White race and wants to show them he is their equal and their superior. He wants to do all these things not in order to be polite but to be obnoxious. You have here in Washington probably the most beautiful passenger station in the world, with hundreds of most splendid seats. You have worlds of space there and hundreds of seats for the Negroes who want to be vicious and offensive to the white race and who gloat over making white folks sit by them, regardless of whether the white folks want to sit by them or not. You have in that waiting room not a single seat nor a square inch of space for the Negroes who do not want to be offensive, who do not want to sit by white folks if not desired, and who prefer to sit with their own race and foster a good feeling between the races. You have in that waiting room all space for the whites who want to associate with Negroes. There is no space for the white man, woman or child who does not want to sit with strange, offensive Negroes and who prefer to associate with the white race. Millions and millions of the people's money have been spent and are spent each year on dozens of most beautiful parks here in Washington, and most splendid music furnished—for whom? For only the whites who want to associate with Negroes, who want to smell the cigar smoke puffed in his face by an offensive Negro, who likes to have them walk in front of him and talk loudly, regardless of where he may move, and who prefers the hoistercrowd laugh of the crowd of Negroes in front of him to the music. These parks and music are also for the special use of the Negroes who want to and do get a special satisfaction Vote For Y Local In order to promote local talent ington's Favorite Local Star Cont Howard Clip the coupon on the paper and present it purchasing an admis- ditional votes.

We need a few parks for the Negroes who live in Washington and who do not want to be obnoxious—if there are such here! There ought to be some provision for the whites—and I know there are thousands of them—who want a breath or fresh air without being compelled to associate with offensive Negroes. Oh, the disgrace of the Negro situation here in Washington! We have here in Washington a so-called reformatory for girls. It is filled up with Negro girls and a few white girls. In other words, if a white girl makes a mistake or does some wrong for which she should be corrected she is forced to live with a bunch of Negroes in order that she, a white girl, may be made better. The gang in authority in Washington who causes this to be done ought to be forced to eat with Negroes, sleep with Negroes, live with Negroes, smell Negroes, and work at hard labor with Negroes in a penitentiary for and during the full end and term of their natural lives. Gentlemen of the committee, the race problem will be solved when the Negro race and the white race find out that the thing to do is to do that which will cause the least friction between the two races and promote the best feeling between the white man and the color man. [Applause.] It may perhaps be good for Mr. Landford to know that the majority of the Negroes in the North now former lived in the South and are the very Negroes he thought were so satisfied when they were down there. However, we are pleased to know that Landford and he kind have at least realized that the are Negroes who have greater ambition than to be slaves to him and his kind Georgia and other Southeastern State Landford's speech in the final analysis is but the product of a distorted mind a school of thought that is incapable of progress. Lankford comes from the Eleventh District of Georgia, which includes most of the counties in southeastern Georgia. In the counties represented by Lankford there was only one county that was listed in Bulletin No. 39, on Negro Education, that had a school large enough to be listed in that publication. That county was Glynn. Two schools are listed in this county with an attendance of 356. In Berrien County the Bulletin states there is one school but it is too small to describe. In practice, this is what Lankford does for the Negroes whom he claims are doing so much to save the race. There no law in this section that a w. is bound to respect.

DUNBAR THEATER Mary Garr in the greatest picture of "OVER THE H 4 Days: Wed., Thurs. Fri., & Sat., January 31st, February Last Show Begins at 9:30 P. M. PAGE FOUR THE FI What We Should L Football Editor's Note—This is the third of the Tribune's series of articles "What We Should Learn from the Past Football Season." These articles contain the opinions of those thoroughly familiar and well versed in college athletics. "Sportsmanship" will be the subject of next week's issue. "A football game without clean-cut officiating is not only unsatisfactory to the players but entirely disappointing to the spectators. Football rules are a complicated affair, necessarily because the game itself is a complicated one. Hundreds of officials must be selected and allotted to the many games, and keenness of perception, accuracy, good judgment and thorough knowledge of the rules is essential." The above paragraph by Walter Camp commenting on the work of the Central Board on Officials elegantly outlines the vital importance of high standard officiating and concisely names those attributes necessary for the making of successful officials. Four officials—referee, umpire, linesman and field judge—are authorized by the rules. Space will not allow us to define their duties. The referee is the predominating man on the field but he "must recognize and allow precedence to penalties of the umpire." The pay of colored officials ranges from $5 to $50. On one known occasion two officials received $75. The pay of white officials ranges from $25 to $250. The scale of each depends on the importance of the games. Few Approved Officials. For obvious reasons there has always existed a scarcity of colored football officials. Less than 10 years ago the common tendency was to use white officials exclusively. Later the practice of having whites to referee and umpire and colored as linesman and timekeeper was used. The latter system was in operation even during the past season. But it is believed that the passing of 1922 meant the elimination of white officials from our games. Through the efforts of Messrs: G. C. Wilkinson and E. B. Henderson of this city in 1912 the Central Board on Officials consented to accept and approve of capable, experienced and well-recommended Race men in this field. Since that time the approved group of colored officials has appeared yearly in the Spalding Football Guide. Messrs. E. B. Henderson, G. C. Wilkinson, A. K. Savoy and M. P. Robinson made up the 1912 group, while Messrs. Henderson, H. G. Douglas, J. M. Harrison, C. L. Pinderhughes and H. N. Robinson formed the 1922 list. It is to be regretted that in 10 years the list has been increased by only one, although the following men could be decorated for meritorious service in this line of duty last season: Messrs. Washington, Douglas, Lew, Henderson, Pinderhughes, Key, Lawson, Coppage, Wright and Stratton. Opens 3 p. Daily Sundays 3 p. In reviewing football in the southeast last season Coach Harvey of Morehouse wrote, "Colored officials were used in all games in Nashville, Atlanta, and Tuskegee. Although some mistakes were made, they were not any worse than some made in other years. The following men, especially, served well and ought to be even better next year: Messrs. J. Tutt, Paul Diggs, J. C. Arnold and C. E. Warner." Suggestions. To improve and standardize this part of the machinery that is most vital to the game a few suggestions are here with offered to college authorities, spectators and officials. To college authorities it is suggested: That officials be selected or appointed by mutual agreement or by some governing body several weeks before the game takes place; that the services of all officials provided under the rules be used and under no circumstances should a man be selected to keep time who has not performed such duty before; that officials be compensated in due consideration to the importance of the game and to the entire satisfaction of all concerned, with the referee and umpire receiving more than the linesman and field judge; that all write-ups and news reports bear the names of the officials and never should a news report alibi the loss of a game by placing the blame on the officials; that it be generally and unmistakably understood that college authorities will provide the protection, prestige and moral backing to which every competent official is entitled and allow no official to ever suffer from having done his duty on the field. The spectator should play his part by reading the rules, noting the changes and not being a chronic out-burster at each unfavorable enforcement of the rules. It is suggested that colored officials qualify with the Central Board on Officials and in addition organize a body of officials to interpret and discuss the rules and be instrumental in developing and recommending capable men in this field. They are especially urged to uphold the integrity of their profession and not "hesitate to inflict penalties, lest they thereby incur the dissatisfaction or hostility of the authorities of the college involved, and thus perhaps lose the opportunity of thereafter officiating in games where the college penalized is a contestant." For the good of the game let there be no repetition of the Atlanta-Morehouse affair, which resulted in the game being cancelled because of the inability to agree on officials or a condition such as prevailed Thanksgiving morning when one hour before game time authorities were scouring Washington lining up officials to handle the "classic."

A. and Atlanta University, met the Tigers with a determination to mar their record. At the end of five minutes the score was 5 to 0 in favor of Morris Brown due to a beautiful shot from the middle of the floor by Fleming, and an over-head toss by Word, aided by one point from the free-throw line. The adherents of Morris Brown attempted to lift the roof, while loyal cohorts of Morehouse called for it and steam. And the Maroon players arose to the occasion and at half time the score read Morehouse 12, Morris Brown 8. The last 15 minutes of the first half produced the best floor exhibition seen here this year. It was hard and fast. How hard can be realized when we remember that three players were banished via the personal foul route, all of the fouls resulting from the speed and grimness of the determination of both teams to win. The second half was a repetition of the first, although Morris Brown was unable to score until after the incoming substitutes for the Morehouse varsity. In the last five minutes against the second team, Lee, captain of Morris Brown, ran wild and counted four times from the floor. Dunson and Hope were injected into the game, but showed still the effects of attacks of la gripe and influenza. For the winners, Captain Sykes and Bailey played exceptionally BAR well. Captain Sykes was a towner of strength on defense, while Bailey scored three baskets from the floor and 12 out of 17 from the foul line. For the losers Captain Lee and Word showed to best advantage. Next Friday Morehouse journeys to Tuskegee to attempt to remove the last obstacle from the path of the Southeastern Championship, so that when they make their eastern invasion the middle of February they will have it tucked safely in their pockets.

The Board of Directors of the District Basketball League at their regular bi-weekly meeting Tuesday night went on record as being opposed to any infractions of the rules of the league. In support of this stand two men were permanently barred, two put on probation and one reprimanded. Graves (Alco) was set down for playing with the Athenians of Baltimore; Blue (Carlisle) was barred because of being a varsity high school player, Neale (Alco) was reprimanded for actions unbecoming an athlete, Wright (Carlisle) was given time to decide between the Carlisle and Lightning Five, and Skinker was allowed to play with the Gladiators under protest awaiting word of his standing at Lincoln. Alco Trims Gladiators The Alco A. C. quint took the league lead by defeating the Gladiators in the most bitterly contested game of the series, 33 to 23. Although the game was marred slightly by unnecessary roughness, the passing and shooting of both teams at times flashed. Davis, of the losers, was the outstanding player on the floor, Carroll, Kenner, Skinker, Mayo and Morris were other particularly luminaries. The Gladiators missed the services of Benny Hill, who was unable to play on account of illness. The line-up: Alco. Gladiators. Kenner F. E. Davis Carroll F. Skinker Arnold C. Frazier Morris G.

Charlotte, N. C., Jan. 22.—In a well-played game abounding in thrills and sensations the Johnson C. Smith cagers defeated their ancient rival, Livingstone, last Saturday night at the city auditorium by the easy score of 30 to 13. Smith outshot, outpassed, and in fact had the edge on Livingstone in every branch of the game. Livingstone's passing was excellent at times, but they were unable to get together under their goal for the final punch which meant a scuffle. Benson at guard was easily the out of the ing star for Livingstone. Pope, guard, was by a slight rise the outstanding star for Smith led the scoring for Smith with four goals and two goals from fouls on possible five. Allen, forward, followd Pope with four field goals, one of which was made from the side line with his back to the goal in a stooping posture, by far the most sensational seen on the local court for many a day. Harris, center, and Massey, guard, made many wonderful passes, some of which were from very awkward positions. They scored three field goals each. Williams played a good defensive game for Smith. Steele, a youngster, was substituted for Williams in the last quarter and played well. Smith's at home schedule for the season includes Morehouse College of Atlanta, last year's champions of the South. The next game will be played against Lutheran College of Greensboro Friday night, January 26. An account of each game will be published in this paper. SPORT CHATTER By H. Scott Danny Edwards, the Pacific Coast bantam, will get a chance to show his wares Friday night, meeting Danny Lee (white) in a 12-round match to a decision at the Pioneer Athletic Club, New York City.

An article, advertised in The Tribune, has prestige combined with the advantage of The Tribune's enormous local circulation. Shrewd advertisers know this. During last year The Tribune carried more classified advertising than all other local weekly papers combined. This type of advertising is the acid test of the pulling power of a paper. One ad last week of only 5 lines had 11 people to answer it; this is but a sample of the tremendous pulling power of a Tribune ad.

Cornish, secretary; Mrs. Agnes Williams, treasurer; Mr. Henry Kidwell, business manager and Mr. Alfonso Adams, sergeant at arms. This club maintains its own orchestra. The club will be entertained at the residence of Mrs. M. Latisaw, 200 New York Avenue Northwest, on January 30. BRIGHT SPOTS IN THE HAYES' RECITAL. Most brilliant musical effort among us in many a day. Intellectual and fashionable Washington was there. Some few critics were there but remained, however. Proof that we can successfully give 5 o'clock affairs. For reputation, artist. "Go abroad." For wealth, young man. "Go west." Mrs. Milton A. Francis certainly knows how to put over "big" things. Not many recognized the difference between the French, German and Italian numbers, but they were made to feel at home in Negro "Spirituals." Don't ever remark again that it does not repay colored artists to go abroad. Fame and wealth awaits them across the pond," providing no war starts. Plenty money round here if you know how to get it. Why the "cash box" was bulging with all kinds of currency. When will we have another such brilliant musical hereabouts? THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1923 Letters to the Editor To the Editor of the Tribune: When I sat in the audience at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church on Sunday night, January 14, and saw those young women in their particular grace and beauty portraying in mien and expression the wonderful characters of the "Women of the Bible," and while I listened to the soft, sweet, expressive voice of the reader, truly I felt proud of being identified with the Negro race. The entertainment itself is worthy of repetition, being not only beautiful in costume and rich in coloring, but beautiful in its simplicity and, at the same time, instructive as well as entertaining. The sweet solo rendered by Miss Maud Smothers would touch any soul, the quality of her voice being surprisingly delightful. I consider this presentation of the "Women of the Bible" in Metropolitan Church an acknowledgement of the particular ability along such lines of the author, director and original reader of said play who is a member of Israel C. M. E. Church, corner First and B Streets Southwest, where the first presentation of the "Women of the Bible" occurred some years ago: In this pleasure-loving age it is gratifying to church workers to find that such a play as that above mentioned can survive nearly 20 years almost as originally presented after the author had upon request presented the same play in every other church in the city with audiences that testified in unmistable tone that the "Women of the Bible" will always be appreciated, not only in Washington, but in Baltimore, Frederick, Md., and York, Pa., where the author has since given her play. So I say to those who have without doubt unintentionally plagiarized the play—press on with the good work and may God help you in this effort to serve humanity. The author is now preparing "Elijah" (and has applied for the copyright of same) which play she trusts will make its appeal to the reading and thinking people of the community. Doubtless this play will make its first appearance in Israel Church in the spring. A Smile or Two Today By S. J. C. The older some men get the younger they look—on the top of the head. Queer that the movie at the Dunbar Sunday, "Caught Bluffing," implies just what the average observation reveals. She—What's this rumor I hear about you saying that my kisses are dull? He—Well, if I were the only man you ever kissed, how do you know they're sharp? Reformers, it is said, are unable to account for the run-down condition of married men. Maybe its because of the bills their wives run-up. THE MEDIUM. The glare of the light through the isinglass of theatrobe seemed to fascinate the strange and handsome couple who sat strangely far apart. She yawned; he sighed. Finally, he said: "If I had the medium I'd travel." She hastened upstairs and returning impulsively slipped something into his hand. Before he was aware of it she had made her exit. Upon gaining his composure he looked and aghast there lay in his palm a car token. A young lady of our acquaintance calls it an x-minister rug because the "x" denotes the unknown quantity. P. S.—She eloped with the minister. --- Phone North 6554-w WILL IT EVER COME TO THIS? Flapper—Can you tell me where I can get the novel "The Sheik?" Clerk—I think you can get it at the public library.

Among other things he says: “In ancient history there was a time when the prophecies of the Sibyls repre- sented for the pagan world what the Jewish prophets did for the Hebrew story, and Michael Angelo, by his work in the Sistine Chapel, gives us the power ‘of realizing this, as it did for the peo- ple of his day... . | “Who were the Sibyls and what were ‘their names, are questions tossed about, Oi some we know... .

SEPARATE BATHING BEACH—NEVER! In the District Bill which passed the Senate Thursday, there is a provision for an appropriation of$25,000 "for the construction of a bathing beach and bath house for the colored population of the city, at the Virginia end of the Key Bridge." That is the limit. C. O. Sherrill, of North Carolina in charge of Federal buildings and grounds, the jim crow promoter of the District, has recommended to Secretary of War Weeks, that he order this separate beach for colored people on the Virginia side of the Potomac River, despite the many protests made to him against a separate beach. A number of civic and other organizations have signified their opposition to a separate beach and have informed Secretary Weeks of their opposition; and it is understood he has promised not to favor a separate Bathing beach. The colored people of Washington have decided that as citizens of the District they are entitled to bathe in the Tidal Basin and they will accept no other place as long as long as bathing is permitted there. That is their slogan now. There is plenty of room there and a regular filtering or purifying plant there, hence it is absolutely unnecessary to think of establishing a separate bathing beach for the colored citizens of Washington or any other group of the city's population. THE TRIBUNE, along with the other colored papers in the District, will oppose a separate bathing beach for colored people. If the District authorities insist on establishing a beach at the Virginia end of the Key Bridge they will simply be wasting the public's money. This will be but the entering wedge for more jim crowism in the Capital of the nation and with the stamp of the Federal Government upon it. If this is accepted then we may look for separate street cars, separate waiting rooms, separate libraries and what not. We shall not sit idly by and see the Constitution of America aborted to race prejudice in the fair capital of the nation that claims itself a "democracy" and "the land of the FREE." Every vestige of the principle of the Constitution of the United States will be destroyed when the Federal Government puts its stamp of approval upon a separate bathing beach for colored people of Washington. THE TRIBUNE and the public in general will oppose it to the last ditch and will boycott any jim-crow bathing beach that may be established. "We bathe at the Tidal basin or no bathing at all" is our slogan. PAGE EIGHT THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Published V WASHINGTON TRIBUNE 920 U St. WASHINGTON Phone N F. MORRIS MURRAY WILLIAM O. WALKER J.

Hamilton Fish Speaks at Y. M. C. A. "The colored man without pride in his own race does not amount to very much" said Capt. Hamilton Fish, Representative from New York, in an address at the Y. M. C. A. Sunday afternoon. Capt Fish was the principal speaker at the regular Sunday afternoon program at the Twelfth Street Y. M. C. A. He did not follow a given subject but spoke as the spirit moved him. He first told of the grandfather as Secretary of State appointing colored men in the diplomatic corps. Henry O. Wagoner was appointed to Lyons, France; others mentioned were John Bassett and J. Milton Turner. He also stated that Frederick Douglas, long before Booker Washington dined with Roosevelt, was a guest of his grandfather at an official dinner given by the Secretary of State. He told of the colored troops under him in the World War. He was a captain in the famous 15th New York Regiment and found the colored troops under him to be equal to any troops in the whole war. He spoke very favorably of James Reese Europe. He considered Lieut. Europe as the most lovable, one of the kindest, and a more interesting man in conversation he never met. The fact that his band was chosen to represent the United States troops at the Inter-Allied band contest held in Paris proved that his was the best band in the whole United States Army. Concerning Harvard University, Capt. Fish said: "This is the opening wedge for every college or university in the north to turn down colored students. President Lowell is only catering to the possible white students from the south and they see more of the colored man down there than they will at Harvard." Regarding the civil rights of colored men, Representative Fish said: "Democracy means the sovereignty of the people. We cannot have a democracy when one-half of the people vote and the other half are denied that right." An outstanding statement made by Capt. Fish, when mentioning the problems of the race, he said: "You are strong enough now, in numbers, to be the deciding factor in such States as New York, but not in leadership or educational standards. Your leaders have sold you out. But you must look to your own, people for assistance and not depend on the white people. You can do more to force the issue of civil rights and gain more from it by your own efforts than you can by looking for assistance from the white people. You have the power if you will but organize and use it." Judge R. H. Terrell followed Capt. Fish with a pointed and appropriate speech. --- SHELBY J. DAVIDSON Shelby J. Davidson, Executive Secretary of the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has been appointed regional director for the District of Columbia, it was announced today. This action was taken in consequence of the number of cases occurring in Washington and the necessity of having some one at the National Capital empowered to act in behalf of the National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. Mr. Davidson has given much time to the association's work, organized the silent parade of 10,000 in protest against lynching and has been instrumental, in addition to giving his executive services, in obtaining press publicity for the efforts of the Washington branch. Mr. Davidson, in his capacity of regional director, will do work among the branches of the N. A. A. C. P. adjacent to Washington. Prof. William L. Hopston, Judge of the Moot Court of the Howard University School of Law, addressed the fraternity at the chapter house last Friday night on "How To Get In and Out of Court." All of the audience being interested from a practical viewpoint, the discussion proved very interesting and instructive. Attorney Houston pointed out that while it was almost all-important to know how to get in and stay in court, yet there are times when it is highly important to know how to get out. Numerous communications from graduate members of the fraternity, with regard to the part Tau Delta Sigma is to play in the real Negro Bar Association, have stirred the fraters into constructive activities on this matter. A constitutional committee has been created by frater attorney George Hayes for the purpose of submitting to the body a new constitution. It is thought by most of the fraters that a broader basic law is needed to enable the fraternity to do its best in connection with the Bar Association. William L. Boyd, the shoe repairer at the corner of Eleventh and U Streets Northwest, installed two new machines this week. One is for making vamps and the other for the making of uppers or tops for shoes. Mr. Boyd is preparing to enter the shoe making business. He is an expert in the repairing work and will now branch out into the actual making of shoes. He will give particular attention to people with low arches and those that are hard to fit. By this method he expects to build up a large clientele of regular patrons. Mr. Boyd will specialize in the making of shoes and not attempt to do a general shoe making business.

The "How Come?" engagement at the Howard Theater will not soon be forgotten if the managers of the production can help it. With the musical comedy headed by Eddie Hunter, Salem Whitney, Amon Davis, Georgette Harvey, Andrew Tribble and Andy Fairchild and Alex Lovejoy crowding all performances th directors of the production announce a special added feature for its closing night next Sunday in a real marriage on the stage, with parson, bridesmaids and best men part of a function that will offer a pair of fiances as the marriage exhibits to be made man and wife on the spot. The event comes about through the desire of a pair of well known Washington folk to join fortunes in wedlock. They expressed their intention to the management of "How Come?" with the result that the ceremony will be publicly performed. But the Sunday night show may contain other features. The managers say a dozen weddings may be consummated as readily as one, and it therefore extends to any couples in Washington who care to be married with orchestral and audience trimmings the privilege of getting in on the wedding opportunity. The management agrees to furnish all equipment, preacher, license, ceremony, bridesmaids, best men, ushers, and organ prelude. Now is the time to speak up, all would-be brides and bridegrooms. Just send your name to the Howard Theater by mail, phone or other manner and arrangements will be be made for the flying of the martial knot. The management wishes it understood the offer is bona fide and in no sense designed to poke fun at applicants. Just send in your name and arrangements will be made to make your union one of the several the pool is expected to attract. The ushers will be the principals of the big organization. Bridesmaids will be supplied from the dancing girls and best men from the high-stepping boys. Washington is humming the many sticky airs of Ben Harris' delightful score and no funny lines or situations seen or heard on the local stage have evoked so much explosive laughter as Eddie Hunter's hilarious book. It's a great show no one can afford to miss. It goes from here to Philadelphia and from there straight to one of the big theaters of Broadway, New York. AMPHION GLEE CLUB benefit appearance, N. A.A.

The present status of the race in the United States demands the most serious reflection, a carefully prepared set of principles for the guidance of our people, a program upon which we shall unite and immediate purposeful action. The political and economic condition of colored citizens presents an anomalous situation in that we have no part in distribution of taxes or in the administration of the laws in many sections of the United States because the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution are negatived while the Eighteenth Amendment is being enforced at great expense and at additional cost in human life. Lynching continues though the Senate of the United States found it not expedient to enact into law the Dyer anti-lynching bill. Independent political action having been urged upon our people who exercise the franchise, many adopted the suggestion as was demonstrated in the recent election. You are respectfully urged to come to the meeting at Nashville prepared to consider our duty on the firing line in the face of the enemy. Sincerely and fraternally yours. (Sign ed) J.
