HARDING ASKED TO FIGHT FOR ENFORCEMENT OF CONSTITUTION INSTEAD OF JUST 18TH AMENDMENT First in Local Circulation. Vol. 2, No. 49 14TH AND 15TH AMENDMENTS AS IMPORTANT AS 18TH AMENDMENT 14TH AND 15TH AMENDMENTS AS IMPORTANT AS 18TH AMENDMENT It's Folly to Try to Enforce One While States Ignore Others PRES. AWARE OF VIOLATIONS Negroes Demand That Laws Be Enforced Without Any Discrimination The Tribune this week received a letter from the Treasury Department Bureau of Internal Revenue, Office of the Federal Prohibition Commissioner. The letter is self explanatory and is of such importance to the race, that we herewith reproduce the letter and The Tribune's open reply to same. Believing, as a representative journal, reaching many colored people, and having much influence in the interest of LAW and CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT, I am writing to enlist your support in the great task that has been assigned by President Harding to Federal Prohibition Commissioner Haynes. We will appreciate greatly to be placed upon your mailing list that we may have an opportunity to keep in touch with the sentiment expressed in your publication, which we know reflects that of a vast portion of citizenship. In turn we are placing you on our list and you will receive regularly, all material supplied the press by our Bureau of Information. We will welcome a reply to this. Very truly, SHERMAN A. CUNEO Bureau of Information Hon. Warren G. Harding, President United States of America, Dear Sir: We are in receipt of a letter from the Federal Prohibition Commissioner's office calling upon us as "having much influence in the interest of law and order" to enlist our support in the great task assigned by you to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution. We beg to state, sir, first, that we are for law and order and Constitutional Government; and second, we are in favor of enforcing the eighteenth amendment; and third, that we are in favor of your exerting the influence of your great office, with its moral and executive support, in the enforcement of this amended. But, sir, we beg to call your attention to other amendments to the Constitution of these United States which are now, and have been throughout your administration, unenforced. The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution, sir, in both letter and in spirit, remain unenforced. The great mass of people in this country of African extraction, to whom these amendments vouchsafed inherent rights and created new rights, are this day, sir, and with your knowledge, being deprived of these rights and of privileges common to all others of our citizenry. Many millions in the Southland are deprived of the right of franchise, and are forced to suffer the humiliation of Jim-Crow cars while in interstate traffic. These same millions (Continued on page 6) The Washington Tribune Published Weekly THE MODE EVELYN PREER, who in the role has scored one of the biggest hits in igton.

U.S. STEEL HEAD ASKED TO USE NEGRO LABOR Doctor Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University, an institution specializing in the training of Negro youth here at the National Capital, today sent the following telegram to Honorable E. H. Gary, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the United States Steel Corporation. Chairman, Board of Directors, United States Steel Corporation, Hoboken, N. J. I have read with interest your statement reported in Associated Press dispatches this morning deploring alleged shortages of labor due principally to present immigration laws. You are reported to have said that "there is a great abundance of labor on the other side of the world that would be glad to come here and develop our American resources." May I venture to say that there are in this country today twelve million Colored people. Eight million of these twelve million are in the South. They are citizens of the American Republic. They are tied to a one crop system and oppressed by economic conditions that hinder and prevent their fullest development and the enjoyment of the fullest American citizenship. They possess strong --- Hon. Elbert H. Gary. bodies and have a real patriotic attachment to American institutions. They are in position to supply the labor shortage to which you refer if plans are undertaken on a large and important scale to transfer them to the centers where their services are needed. It seems unnecessary to look to foreign shores to supply any labor shortage that may exist in American industries when there is this large and sympathetic group within reach. These Colored Americans are not aliens, they have never sought to disrupt the Government nor do they harbor Bolshevistic or Anarchistic ideals. They are ready and willing to help develop the resources of their country. Will it not be possible for one circumstant as you are to lend the weight of your great influence in opening larger economic opportunities for this group that is struggling under adverse conditions in the rural districts of the far South where lynching and peonage are practised upon them with impunity. Your support of such a movement will be gratefully appreciated. (Signed) EMMETT J. SCOTT Doctor Scott recently prepared a monograph study for the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, entitled "Negro Migration During the World War." He also served during the world conflict as a Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, advising in matters affecting Colored troops and civilians. DR. E. D. W. JONES TO SPEAK Dr. E. D. W.

ENT OF 8TH AME al Segregation Scouts Start Drive For A Summer Camp Site on Chesapeake Bay Selected but $1,000 is Needed To Defray Expenses Beginning Sunday, April 22nd, at 11 a.m., the Colored Boy Scouts of the District will begain an extensive city-wide campaign for funds to open their summer camp, lasting eight weeks. The site selected for the camp this year is a delightful one located on Chesapeake Beach where there will be fishing, boating, bathing and water sports for all Scouts. This organization should be loyally supported by every citizen of the District of Columbia. Do not turn aside when asked for a contribution to this worthy cause but give freely and cheerfully for you may save a boy's career thereby. A dollar invested to train a boy is far better than ten invested to reform him after he has tread a downward path. A budget of $1,000 is needed and a large number of personal donations from $1.00 up are needed. Prizes are to be awarded the Scouts raising the largest individual amounts. The drive will be under the direction of Assistant Deputy Scout Commissioner S. Z. C. Westerfield, assisted by Scoutmasters C. C. Brooke, Joseph W. Cook, Wm. E. Wilkerson, James Terrell, Harry Fields, B. E. Whitaker, Norman Kaiser and others. Send all personal subscriptions to the office of the Asst. Deputy Commissioner, 1503 R Street, N.W. All donations will be publicly acknowledged through the columns of this paper. This organization teaches the boy chivalry, unselfishness, duty, charity, and thrift. It builds for good citizenship and trains the leaders of the future generation, by preparing the boy for every day service to his community through methods of first aid, courtesy, honesty and loyalty. It seeks to develop the boy physically, mentally and spiritually, gives comradeship of the right type and affords the boy opportunity to learn how to swim, cook, render first aid, rescue a drowning person, make and read a map correctly and many other fine things. The camp is an essential feature and is greatly needed. DO YOUR GOOD TURN and help put the drive "over the top." ISRAEL CHURCH BURNS MORTGAGE The mortgage burning of Israel C. M. E.

ENDMENT on Spreads Kenilworth Citizens Association Denounces Members For Selling to Colored The segregation wave that is sweeping the District hit the Kenilworth section this week. The white residents of that section, met under the guise of the Kenilworth Citizens Association last Tuesday night at the Kenilworth Presbyterian Church and voted that no person who was a member of the association would sell any property in that section to Colored people. According to reports of the meeting, more than fifty people attended and several speeches attacking the Negro race were made. It appears that some valuable property in that section was recently sold to a Colored man. The person who sold the property was vehemently denounced for selling to a Negro. It was the sentiment of the meeting that Kenilworth should be maintained as a white settlement. John Barber, who is listed in the city directory as a watchman, is president of the Association. The Kenilworth section is inhabited by a large number of colored as well as whites. It is the extreme northeast section of the District and many of the inhabitants run truck farms. The attempt at segregation in the Kenilworth section came right on the heels of the attempt, segregation on the part of a group of white people in the 1700 block of S St., N.W. Mrs. Corrigan was enjoined from completing the sale of a house in this block to Mrs. Dr. Merrill Curtis. However, Dr. Emmett J. Scott and Hon. A. G. Free, Recorder of Deeds, have both purchased and are now occupying their homes in this block. In addition to these two, other colored people are living in that block and have been living there for some time. It is understood that the Curtisons will continue their legal fight. Attya for Mrs. Corrigan, the white owner of the property will join Attorney Smith and Cobb in the court battle to get a change in the recent ruling of Chief Justice McCoy. CADETS RECEIVE COMMISSIONS Last Tuesday before a large group of students and parents on the campus at Howard University, commissions in the High School cadet corps were presented to the officers and warrants to the non-commissioned officers, of Dunbar, Armstrong and Shaw Junior High.

This Association does not come any too soon to take its rightful place in sportdom and to fill a long felt want as a controlling body of a section heretofore neglected. While not an out-and-out Race affair the fact that exclusively Colored players and a couple of owners will profit is sufficient to justify the unfaltering and unselfish support of the fans. For the benefit of the few not familiar with the Mutual Association we might enlighten them by stating that the following clubs make up its membership: Baltimore Black Sox; Brooklyn Royal Giants; New York Lincoln Giants; Cuban Stars; Atlantic City Bacharach Giants, and Philadelphia Hilldale. Each of these teams is well established, not alone in the particular city it represents but in all parts of the country. Ben Taylor's Washington Potomacs is not a member of the League this year, because the Washington Club was not organized at the time the League was formed, at which time the necessary six clubs were taken in. However the Potomacs will be an associate team this season which means that the local club will play all league teams, both here and on the road. The games will not figure in the League's standing. If the local fans will give the Potomacs the proper support this season, there is little doubt that the team will be admitted as a full pledged member of the League next year, because Washington is a Sunday baseball town and has the third largest Negro population in the country. The possibilities of the Association is inestimable. In the West the Negro National League has made unparalleled success. Much better things can be expected of the newly organized Eastern circuit with its greater population to draw from, and because of its easy and less expensive accessibility to representative cities. The coming of Ben Taylor means the turning point, a new era. The common slogan already going the rounds of the Colored sport loving public in all sections of the city is "Support the Potomacs." The Eastern Association is in for a big year and the Washington Potomacs are also destined for big things. CONCERNING LANGFORD AND JOHNSON Recent press dispatches tell of the doings of two grand old campaigners, Sam Langford and Jack Johnson. The former has recently landed the heavy weight championship of Mexico and Spain while the latter is booked to meet Farmer Lodge in Havana on May 6. Two meritorious careers are nearing their final lap. Langford unable to make a comfortable living at his profession in this country was compelled to seek other camping grounds. Johnson has not fought in this country for over a decade and quite likely will never again. During his twenty-one years in the ring Langford has never been anything but a credit to the sport. And while Johnson did make mistakes, it is true as Jack Britton has aptly said of him: "I never heard of Jack conducting himself in anything but a gentlemanly manner. He liked company and he liked good things. When he got the money he wanted to spend it. He didn't know how to distinguish between friends and leeches and leeches got to him." Both of these fighters are right now able to hold their own with many of the third-raters who camouflage as first class scrap- PAGE FOUR By H. Scott GREAT POSSIBILITIES OF NEW EASTERN CIRCUIT THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1923 pers. It is a real pleasure to read of Langford winning his first titles in twenty-one years of activity. And it is just as interesting to learn that Johnson is to get another chance. ON TO THE PENN RELAY CARNIVAL One week from today will find Howard, Lincoln, Wilberforce, Dunbar, Cheney, Armstrong, Morgan and Bordentown relay teams and Debart Hubbard, Charles West, Anderson and other individuals competing with white performers from all parts of the world at the Penn Relay Carnival. Colored track stars have made history at the Carnival since its beginnig. Drew, Butler, Gourdin; Howard and Lincoln relay teams, and a host of others have electrified and brought throngs to their feet at these affairs. It is expected that 1923 will prove no exception and uncover its quota of luminaires. Debart Hubbard, the outstanding colored track star of today and one of the most versatile in track history is looked upon as having the broad-jump, hop-step-and jump events already won. He will also receive serious consideration in the hurdles. Howard and Lincoln relay teams are expected to stage comebacks and duplicate their winning performances of 1921. The high school teams, although in class "B," are up against it because of the superior advantages of their opponents. The local high school track coaches, however, are unusually optimistic and can see nothing but sparkling efforts from their proteges. With the eyes of the world focused on them and with jealousy, envy and prejudice all round, our only hope is that our representatives will "run their race" well. Dunbar Theatre Potomacs Loom Up As One Of the Best Teams in the East Ben Taylor and his Washington Potomacs are taking advantage of the warm days in Richmond, Virginia, and are getting in the best possible shape. Taylor has his squad out every day for a four-hour drill and every man in camp is in perfect physical condition and about ready for league competition. Manager Taylor is elated over the showing of his recruits. Out of about ten, probably over half that number will make the grade. Joe Washington, a youngster from the wilds of Georgia looks and acts the part of a coming star outfielder. Washington is big, strong and fast. He bats and throws lefthanded, takes a healthy cut at the bat and covers plenty of ground in the field. The veteran outfielders Woods, Jefferson and Brown are displaying lots of early season pep. Woods especially is working hard and is determined to show the fans that he is a high class player. When not juggled from club to club as he was in the West the past two years. The work of Joe Goodrich, third-sacker from Texas, has caused Mangaer Taylor to predict that before the season is half over Goodrich will take rank along with the best third basemen in the game. Goodrich bats and throws from the right side and at present looks to be one of Taylor's best hitters. Unlike most Texans he is short and stocky, but fast on his feet and is a clean fielder on ground balls. Bucky Ridgeley is another infielder who looks good. Bucky, a Washington boy who played with the Black Sox last season bids fair to have his best season. He has been hammering all sorts of pitching and showing increased speed in his fielding. The pitchers are fast rounding into shape with the aces Ross and Carr almost ready for nine-inning encounters. Morris Williams, the big right-hander who two years ago create such a sensation with the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s until he injured his salary whip, appears to have regained full strength in the arm and is throwing better than he has for over two seasons. It is hoped that Ben can bring him around. The three young pitchers in camp, Albritten from Philadelphia, Lefty Williams from Georgia and Bullet Campbell from Boston, all have the making of good moundsmen with the latter having the edge at this writing. Campbell, a six footer, tips the scales over 100 has a world of speed and a fast breaking curve. His binding speed caused him to be dubbed "Bullet" by Boston fans. Taylor's Potomacs will have one of His blinding speed caused him to be found in baseball. Eggleston looks even better than he did last season when he shared duty with Mackey at Indianapolis. Lewis who looked mighty good with the Black Sox last year and a youngster coming from the winter league in Porto Rico will round out the backstops. "Specs" Clark is due in camp any day now and as he has been playing all winter will need little time to get in shape. Clark will bring a pitcher, infielder and above mentined catcher with him. The surprise of the training camp is the actions of Manager Taylor. Every player in camp predicts that "Old Reliable" will have the greatest season of his career which is saying much. Not a youngster in camp can tire Ben out and he has already knocked more than one board off of the fence at Hovey's field where his team is working out. All in all, Ben Taylor's Washington Potomac look to be well able to take care of themselves and unless we miss our guess, the fans of Washington will have in their first professional baseball team something to be really proud of. POTOMACS AND RICHMOND TIE Richmond, Va., April 18.—The Washington Potomacs and the Richmond Giants battled ten innings until darkness terminated the game with the score 2 to 2. The airtight hurling of Henderson of the Giants and Carr of the Potomacs featured the game. Taylor's Potomacs began the season with a 12-4 victory over Virginia Union University on the latter's ground Tuesday. The Potomacs will journey to Petersburg, Saturday to cross bats with a strong aggregation of that city. Training Camp Dope (Bv Wm. Ross) Richmond, Va.—Every training camp must have its little joke on some over anxious youngster, and Ben Taylors' Washington Potomacs proved to be no exception to the general rule. The first one pulled was like this. "Lefty", Williams, a big strapy youngster from the wilds of Georgia arrived in camp last week and reported to Manager Ben at once for inspection. That day when we arrived at the park, Taylor called Ross, who has charge of the pitchers while in camp, to get Williams ready for batting practice; after he had warmed up a few minutes he informed Ross he was ready. He was told to go over and get the key to the pitchers' box from Manager Taylor. Sure enough, he went over and asked Taylor for the key. Taylor being wise to the trick told him he left the key with the clerk at the hotel; so away Lefty went for the hotel, almost a mile away. In the meantime, the clerk had been put wise, and he informed Lefty that someone had misplaced the key, but he could give him the address of a locksmith and he could have one made. He got the address and away he went to have a key made for the pitchers' box. So Lefty's first day in camp was spent hunting for the key to the pitchers' box. Ball players have all sorts of alibis and other tricks to keep from doing much work. The other day Manager Taylor was hitting them to the infield, and if anyone has ever seen him working his infield out they will know just about how he was hitting them. It is really a treat to see him drive a ball at some infielder like a rifle shot. This particular day, Ridgeley, who was secured from the Black Sox of Baltimore, was on second. A ball was hit to him, but took a bad bound and hit him on the leg. Wanting to quit, he came in and Taylor asked what was the matter, he held up his hand and showed a small spot on his finger, saying he had broken it. That is the first time I have ever seen a ball hit a man on the leg and break his finger. Hillsdales to Have a Strong Team This Year Philadelphia, Pa.—If intensified training will bring out the best qualities of the athletes who have been assigned the task of keeping the Hilldale Club out in front during the 1923 season, then Philadelphia's representative in the Mutual Association should be fit as the proverbial fiddle when the umpire calls "play ball" at Hilldale Park April. 28th. Each morning the bee-hive like activity is in evidence at Hilldale Park. Captain Lloyd has been surrounded with the following players: Briggs. George Johnson, "Judy" Johnson, Santop, Allen, Cockrell, Flourney, and Stevens from last season's squad and Mackey from Indianapolis, Carr from Kansas City, Warfield and Thomas from Detroit, "Ping" Gardner, "Nimp" Winters, "Reds" Ryan and "Script" Lee. Stiff work-outs have been held daily and many of the fans have dropped in at the Darby ball park to give the perspiring athletes the once over. Just how successful the Hilldale management has been in gathering their 1923 crop will be demonstrated to the public when they clash with the Bacharach Giants in the initial fracas. The Atlantic City aggregation has a strong combination that bids fair to give trouble to all opponents. Included in their line-up are several players who at different times have played with Hilldale, and the fur is sure to fly when Francis, Downs, Chaney White, Lundy and Yank stack up against the home crew. Tom Jackson of the Bacharach's has put in a busy winter and signed Mason and Henderson of last year's Richmond Giants; Hampton from the A. B. C.'s.; and Branahan from Cleveland. With these men in line the shore boys expect to put a crimp in the opening day exercises. A corp of workmen have been busy putting Hildale Park into condition and the management promises to have everything ship-shape by April 28th. A band will furnish music at the opening game, and Edward Henry president of the Citizen's Republican Club will start the action by tossing out the new pellet.

After several days of hard practice the boys are very anxious for action. The club is making every effort to make this team a success. All clubs wishing games, write—W. H. Rose, 427 Gibbon St., Alexandria, Va. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1923 JUNIOR LEAGUE MAY BE ORGANIZED Within the next two weeks a meeting of the junior baseball teams of the city will be held at the Tribune office. The success of the junior league series last fall prompted an earlier start for the youngsters this year. With the Potomacs, Twilight, Junior and Departmental Leagues in action the fans are assured plenty of good baseball this summer. Girls Out|For Track at Wilberforce (By S. Hasbrook, Jr.) Wilberforce, Ohio, Special—The track candidates under coaches Mohr and Purnell are working out daily on the cinder path in preparation for the Howard meet. In the squad of 30 men are some promising material and the track team will be heard from before the season is over. The candidates for the girls' team are also out on the path. The girls will be represented in the inter-class meet to be held here in May. Miss Payne has some fast runners and it looks like the last years records will be shattered. More than 40 candidates for the baseball team are seen daily on the diamond hard at work. This is the largest squad seen out for some time and some high class ball players are in this group. Coach Pettyjohn will have a time getting the best team from this bunch, but all will have a fair trial and he expects to put a representative team on the field for the first game with Wilmington, April 20th. St. Paul Drops Two Durham, N. C., April 10—St. Paul dropped two games to the National Training School here today, 10 to1, and 13 to 3.

PAUL GETS $500 FOR GYMNASIUM APPARATUS Lawrenceville, Va.—St. Paul School received a check for $500 from a friend in Pennsylvania for Gymnasium Apparatus. This is the second substantial gift of this nature made to St. Paul by this person. Order has already been placed with the Narragansett Machine Company, of Providence, R. I., for the equipment. The $500 addition completes the plans as drawn by this reputable concern. The Director of Gymnasties states that the additional apparatus will be installed before May 10th. This order will increase the value of St. Paul's gymnasium equipment to 1932 Blue Belt Basketball Team of New York who annexed the Eastern Championship by defeating the local Y. W. C. A.

HOWARD-LINCOLN GAME ON 26TH The Howard-Lincoln baseball game that was scheduled for April 28th, has been changed to April 26th. This change was made on agreement of both schools in order that all students who desire to attend the Penn Relay Carnival at Philadelphia may do so. The blue and white squad has greatly improved since their recent trip South. Mr. Mahoney, formerly 10 COACH MAHONEY star hurler of the Indianapolis A. B. C's is coaching the squad this year. Mr. Mahoney will pitch for the Baltimore Black Sox this season; he is a product of the local sand lots. Jazz musicians in New York went out on strike for a $25 a week raise, says a news item. In Washington where every aggregation of jazz hounds has a separate following, such an act of impertinence is absurd, eh? PAGE FIVE New York Blue Belts Outclass Y.W. Girls in One Sided Game The local basketball season was brought to a close Thursday night at the Colonnade with the famed Blue Belts of New York City administering the only defeat suffered by the Y. W. C. A. All-Stars this season by the score 20-10. Excelling in practically every department of play the performance of the Blue Belts fully commensurated the presence of the huge crowd that witnessed the game. Miss Ellason stood out as one of the best if not the best girl player seen here this season. Miss Dobson also showed up well for the visitors. Miss Stewart played best for the locals who were handicapped by the absence of their star guard Miss Winston who is out of the city. In the preliminary encounter the Alco Junior defeated the Seminoles in a bitterly contested affair 24-19. Chris Haiswod, generally considered one of the leading basketball officials of the country handled the preliminary game and gave a clever demonstration of how a game should be handled.

More Negroes in the Police and Fire Departments is Aim of Civic Center Bodies PAGE SIX On April 12th a committee from the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations of the District of Columbia composed of twenty-one organizations numbering 15,000 persons who are heads of families, went before the District Commissioners and made a plea for more colored firemen and policemen. The committee called the Commissioners' attention to the unjust proportions of white and colored police, firemen, and physicians to the poor as employed in the District. The committee further pointed a like unjust and un-American blasiness that prevails in the other departments of the District government. Despite the fact of unequal opportunities for employment and millions of dollars withheld as salaries to Colored citizens, no discrimination is made in the price of goods, clothing and shelter. As a direct result of the unequal distribution and relative values of positions and salaries throughout the various activities of the District government, there is necessarily a number of worthy poor who must rely in times of sickness upon the physicians provided by the Health Department. Although twenty physicians are employed to look after the poor of the city, but one is Colored. The Commissioners were asked first; That the Colored people be given their quota of police in all grades from captain down, and that active assignments be maintained; Second, That the number of firemen be increased and proper officers appointed according to the quota of population; Third, that a Colored physician be placed on the Board of Examiners for the police and fire departments. The Colored people form one-fourth of the District's population and during the war furnished forty per cent of the District's quota of soldiers. As the Race's greatest problem is an economic one, the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations have decided on a program aimed at getting some relief here. The Commissioners told the Committee that there was a vacancy of thirty men on the police force and that if thirty colored men came down and passed the examination, that they would be appointed. The committee was told that there was a waiting list of firemen. However, the Evening Star of Monday afternoon, carried an article from the Civil Service Department calling for an examination of firemen to fill vacancies. Colored men are asked to apply to the Civil Service Department to take examinations for both the police department and the fire department. These jobs pay good salaries, ranging from $135 per month to around $250. Those desiring to take the examinations should act at once. The committee calling on the Commissioners, were composed of Dr. Creed W. Childs, Wm. H. Carter, Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Dr. J. J. Porter, H. E. Barnett, W. D. Nixon. Y. W. C. A. Notes Miss Givens who is in the city on sight-seeing trip with 186 classmates from the High School of Detroit, Mich., is a guest at Phyllis Wheatley. Miss Sadie Harper, House Directress has just returned from Richmond, Va. where she went to visit her mother who is ill. We are glad to say that Miss Harper left her mother much improved.

Harding Asked to Enforce Constitution (Continued from page 1) are crying aloud for an equal opportunity for education. Throughout this land this group, "guaranteed" its rights under this same "sacred" constitution, are being deprived of the right to participate in the conduct of affairs of this government, being daily refused appointments under the Civil Service after having successfully passed the examinations and being in line for appointment. The policy, sir, of your administration (even worse than that of your Democratic predecessor) seems to be to give to this group only menial positions, and as few of them as possible. We xenture the opinion, sir, that of all the thousands of executives and clerks in this enforcement bureau, which you are calling upon us to support, there isn't enough employees of our group to man a canoe. We beg further, sir, to call your attention to the fact that this same "sacred" constitution, the eighteenth amendment of which gives you so much concern, provides for a fair and impartial trial to every man charged with a crime in these United States. Notwithstanding this fact, there have been thousands upon thousands of men of our group who have been lynched—many having been burned at the stake—in this country; and so far as we know you have yet to raise your voice against it. It was a Senate with a large majority of your party, sir, which, if not with your consent, certainly without your protest voted down a bill to correct this shame against this boastful nation of ours (yours). However, sir, in view of your decision to throw the weight of your great office and personal influence behind the constitution of the United States, we would ask that you start with the Constitution itself and then with its amendments, in the order that society has seen fit to add there-to, and use your voice, your power and your influence to cleanse America of its flagrant hypocrisy about this "Sacred" Constitution of ours.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1923 EMANCIPATION AND THE FREED IN AMERICAN SCULPTURE A Study in Interpretation FREEMAN HENRY MORRIS MURRAY (Continued from last week) PROPOSED LINCOLN MEMORIAL By CLARK MILLS Shortly after the Civil War closed, an unofficial and voluntary organization undertook to erect in Washington City what was to be an elaborate and imposing National Memorial to President Lincoln. Clark Mills—who was the sculptor of the well-known statue of General Andrew Jackson on the rearing steed—was chosen to design the memorial. THE U.S. CAPITOL A very little study of it shows that the emancipation of the slaves was regarded as Mr. Lincoln's most notable achievement. In fact, although the organization which intended to erect this memorial was named "The Lincoln Monument Association," the dominant purpose appeared to be, quoting the charter—"for the purpose of erecting a monument in the city of Washington commemorative of the great charter of Emancipation and universal liberty in America." (From an article in the Washington Sunday Star, February 7, 1915.) So far as I can learn, no work was done on the granite pedestal, and only one bronze figure was csat (about 1881); but it appears that the memorial as a whole was modeled in clay or in plaster, probably on a reduced scale. Our picture was made from a photograph of this model. Apparently it was photographed with a picture of the Capitol as a background. (The photograph is a stereograph, copyrighted by the sculptor. It was kindly loaned for this illustration by Mr. Henry A. Vale, Secretary of the Lincoln Memorial Commission which has charge of the Memorial which is now being erected in Washington by Government authority.) The following description of the proposed monument is printed on the back of the photograph. "The pedestal to be of granite, and figures bronze. The whole structure to be seventy feet, surmounted by thirty-five colossal figures. Its construction triangular; the base of which admits three groups, presenting slavery. "The first (to the right) presents the slave in his most abject state, as when brought to this country. Here we behold him nude, deprived of all which tends to elate the heart with any spirit of pride or independence. "The second represents a less abject stage. He is here partly clad, more enlgihitened, and hence, realizing his bondage, startles with a love of Freedom. "The third (behind) is the ransomed slave, redeemed from bondage by the blood of Liberty, who, having struck off his shackles, holds them triumphantly aloft. The slave is pictured bowing gratefully at her feet. "Between these groups are three bas-reliefs. First represents the firing on Fort Sumter. The other two present the Senate and House amending the Constitution." "The second story, first group, represents the members of the Cabinet in "The third, the fall of Richmond Dear Editor: You will find enclosed some puzzles worked out. I was very glad last week to see that I was a "Special." I am working hard to become an "Honor Child." KATE CAVANAUGH (Age 11) The organization experienced difficulty in raising funds; nevertheless, Mills made a design for the memorial which was approved. This called for a structure seventy feet high, embellished with thirty-five colossal figures in bronze, also relief panels, etc. Although this memorial was not actually constructed, and almost certainly never will be, its design is interesting. Don't say "nigger." and surrender of Lee. "The crowning figure is the President in the act of signing the Proclamation. At his feet are Liberty and Justice; while behind sits Time, watching the hour-glass, missioned, as it were, from Heaven. council; while Seward points towards Europe, as though explaining the importance of the act. "The second group, officers of the Navy and prominent Union men who stood by the President during the War. "At the base of the steps leading Memorial, designed by Clark Mills. from the centre structure are six equestrian statues of leading commanders of the Army." It is to be regretted that the picture does not bring out more clearly the details of the "slavery groups" which are mentioned. The description of the third group (which does not show in the picture) indicates that Mills' conception of the "ransomed slave" did not differ materially from Ball's "kneeling slave." As an "Emancipation" group, however, it was a step higher than Ball's conception, in that Mill's group suggested that it was "Liberty" which had struck off the slave's chains and was triumphantly holding them aloft. Yet it may have been because he was reluctant to use Mr. Lincoln twice on the monument, the sculptor showed "Liberty" as the instrument if not the cause of Emancipation. At any rate the placing of the matter on an impersonal basis was a step higher. It is worth noting, also, that the bas-reliefs on the same "story" indicate that Mills did not regard "Emancipation" as completed with the issuance of the Proclamation. Two of these reliefs show the Congress amending the Constitution—in order to complete and make secure the limited Emancipation which had been proclaimed. In conformity with the usual practice of the times, the memorial is over-elaborated. It is crowded, confused, and incoherent; and is also somewhat crude in its mixture of the realistic and the figurative. From an artistic point of view, incoherence is perhaps its most conspicuous fault. Consider the bas-reliefs on the three faces of the "first story." The firing on Fort Sumter would seem to have little or no relation to amending the Constitution. The same criticism applies to the three groups of the second story: the Cabinet; the Navy and prominent Union men; and the surrender of Lee—the Army being all on horseback around the base. So that, independent of its inadequate treatment of the Emancipation, and despite its worthiness in certain respects, we need not now greatly regret that this proposed memorial was not completed.

(Age 13) (To be continued) OUR LETTER BOX SCHOOL NAMES (The three best letters) Robert Gould Shaw The name of my school is Robert Gould Shaw Junior High School. During the Civil War Frederick Douglass asked that a colored company of infantry be created. Congress gave permission and the 54th Massachusetts Infantry was organized and placed under the command of Robert Gould Shaw. Shaw was a young graduate of Harvard; he came from a very wealthy family. He was engaged in a battle at Fort Wagner where he and a number of his men were killed. To humiliate him the rebels buried him in a trench with his colored soldiers and then they sent word to his mother telling her of his burial. His mother send word back that no greater tribute could have been paid to her son than to bury him with his colored soldiers. ELMORE W. JASPER (Age 11) 1607 15th St., N. W. Robert Gould Shaw Junior High School; Grade 8-B. Daniel A. Payne Dear Editor: Bishop Daniel Alexander Payne, after whom my school was named, was the first president of a college for our race. He was also bishop of the African Methodist denomination. His father, London Payne, and his mother were natives of Virginia. They both died before Daniel was ten years of age and he was taken care of by a relative. The first school that Daniel attended was that of the Miner's Moralist Society which was organized by seven free Negro men. He went to school two years. He was a shoemaker's apprentice for three months. While Payne was very young he attempted to learn French and Latin without a teacher. He would finish his work and study until very late at night. He would rise very early and study two or three hours. He became a teacher and taught many kinds of studies until the law was passed forbidding schools for Negroes to be continued. Later he became a minister and through preaching lost the use of his voice for a year. He organized the first Negro Pastors Association in the District of Columbia and in 1844 secured the adoption of a course of studies for young pastors. He died November 20, 1893. CARL CHASE (Age 12) J. W. Parker—S. A. Gray Dear Editor: I go to Parker-Gray School. It was named for two of the greatest school teachers of Alexandria. They were Miss Sarah A. Gray and Mr. John F. Parker. Miss Gray was one of the most sympathetic and loving teachers of her time and she was always ready to help any unfortunate children under her care. She taught from the year 1871 to 1890 Mr. Parker was one of the most able teachers of his day. He taught from the year 1871 to 1916 when Snowden School (for boys) in which he taught, was destroyed by fire. The boys' school was then moved to the old St. Mary's School building on Royal Street. Mr. Parker was forced to give up teaching shortly afterwards, because of his health. He died in November 1922. When the new school was built, the school board thru the request of the Parent Teachers' Association, named it Parker-Gray School in honor of the memory of these two Negro teachers. FLORENCE M.

To be free of all these things means that our neighbors will have nothing to protest against us racially. I sincerely believe that when the majority of our race knows the history of the black races of the world—their accomplishments—we will have a source of encouragement and inspiration which will give us backbone enough to look every man squarely in the face and say, "My race, too, has done much for the advancement of mankind." Until we can do this we will never advance. Education helps to quicken our forward movement. Ignorance of race history, and of civic and personal rights hinders us. Ignorance prompts mobs to lynch. Lynchers are undesirable citizens. Do you care to be classed with them? Ignorance prompts loudness and disorderly conduct. Education, culture and refinement win over ignorance, loudness and disorderly conduct every time. That is why mother and father spend much money to send you to school.

Outstanding in this industry is the Poro College of St. Louis, Mo. In an artistically designed and beautifully printed booklet sent out by the Poro College recently, we find the following data and information on this company's humble origin and rapid rise to success. The history of this large manufacturing establishment is built around the efforts of one of the foremost women of the race, Mrs. Annie M. Pope Turnbo-Malone. She was born in Metropolis, Ill. Attended high school in Peoria and while there developed a liking for chemistry. Following her research and investigation, coupled with an interest in hair dressing, young Miss Pope finally compounded a preparation that produced excellent results in stimulating and beautifying the hair. In 1900 she began making and selling this preparation in the little city of Lovejoy, Ill. In 1902 she was induced to go to St. Louis and make that her headquarters. She began her efforts at 2223 Market Street. In 1910 she moved into a large house at 3100 Pine Street. While here she married Prof. Aaron Eugene Malone, of Quincy, Ill. in the summer of 1914. Prof. Malone relieved Mrs. Malone of many responsibilities and in cooperation with her, designed their present spacious plant, which was begun in 1917 and occupied in November, 1918. "Poro College" on the corner of St. Ferdinand and Pendleton Avenues with the annex and garage, represents an investment of $750,000, which places it at the head of the list among our manufacturing establishments. The Poro buildings are fire-proof, being of brick, concrete and steel. The main building and annex are three stories, and the garage one story. Located in the main building are the instruction department and beauty parlors, consisting of twenty-four booths, lobby, and an auditorium seating 900 which is used for chapel services each day, for graduation exercises on each Thursday at noon, and is often used by civic, fraternal, religious and social organizations of the city for concerts and other purposes. The general offices, employing thirty clerks and stenographers, are also in the main building. These offices are furnished with all of the most modern office equipment to facilitate the handling of orders and the correspondence with the 75,000 agents and representatives of the College. The building also contains a cafeteria, in which is located a large marble soda fountain, and a dining room seating 200 people, which serves many persons of the city and in which dinner parties and banquets are served. There is also a sewing shop, dormitories for the students and review agents, guest rooms and the apartments in which Mr. and Mrs. Malone live. In the Poro Annex are the shipping department, manufacturing laboratories, laundry, filling and finishing departments, bakery, publicity department and thousands of feet of floor space for the storing of chemicals. To man these buildings and to carry on the various activities of this organization require 175 employees, ranging in age from 16 to 88 years. Thinking of this outlay of money and the large force employed, one's mind naturally turns to the question, Why? The booklet answers that in "our aims and purposes" which are: "To contribute to the economic betterment of race women; to train useful lives; to develop proficiency: to encourage thrift and industry; to awaken latent forces." That is a big program and the present management and the success already obtained testifies to the fact that it is being carried out. Considering the "Economic Advantages" we are informed that "seventy-five thousand race women throughout the world have become agents of Poro College. Thousands are prosperous through profits derived from giving Poro treatments. Homes are being acquired, families are being provided for, children are being schooled and thousands, awakened to their own latent powers, are being made happy thru their achievements." Money, position, power and consequence are the rewards of the diligent agent of the Poro System. The product was given the name of "Poro" in 1906 and patented to prevent infringement of inferior goods. Starting with the "Wonderful Grower" in 1900, Mrs. Malone has increased her line to a full line of hair and toilet articles, which are of the high standard that has always characterized her "Poro Products." Starting alone and becoming a millionaire, possesing a plant valued at $750,000 and employing more than 75,000 people within the short space of twenty-three years, is the accomplishment of one woman. It demonstrates the possibilities awaiting initiative, perseverance and the living up to good business principles. Mrs. Malone's accomplishments places her as the outstanding woman of the race and she is an inspiration to thousands of others who are accomplishing something as a result of her efforts. In the Poro College, Mr. and Mrs. Malone have built a monument that will be more lasting, and will inspire more people, than that of any of our racial group so far.

The outstanding feature of the Drive for the month was the excellent showing made by John F. Cook Lodge at its stated communication. It was the occasion of the 51st Anniversary of the Lodge. The Worshipful Master, Bro. Frank R. Peebles had requested each member to make a special contribution to be applied on the Special Assessment. The returns M. A. B. DR. WM. E. LEWIS, Worshipful Master of Eureka Lodge No. 5, and Member of Executive Committee of Temple Builders Executive Council. were such as to advance the standing of the Lodge from 11th place to 2nd place for cash reported. Much credit is due Past Grand Master William H. Jackson, Senior Warden L. M. Leake and Junior Warden A. W. Chapman for the success of this effort. Brother W. L. Parks, Master of Widows Son Lodge issued a very earnest and emphatic appeal to the members of his Lodge with very favorable results. Bro. Parks is a member of the Executive Committee of The Temple Builders Council. Dr. W. E. Lewis, Master of Eureka Lodge No. 5, is really on the job for the success of the New Temple Drive. He has arranged a systematic program and is putting things over, with the assistance of Past Master Raymond Weir, Junior Warden Lawrence A. W. CHAPMAN, Junior Warden of John F. Cook Lodge No. 10, Secretary of Temple Builders Executive Council. B. Curtis and his very able Senior Warden, Bro. W. H. Brent. Past Grand Master John P. Turner is doing the "Big Thing" these days and everybody else should be in line for the success of the Drive. Worshipful Master J. W. Hardwick, of St. John's Lodge is determined to run a close second to Warren Lodge and is hopeful of taking the lead from James H. Hill Lodge, but W. M. Thomas Parks is setting the pace in cash returns while Past Masters Thomas Jordon, Phillip Thomas and Joseph Getts are backing up strong. James H. Hill Lodge is determined to hold the lead in per capita payments. Past experience points to the fact that you must keep your eyes on Datcher.

Proceeds for the benefit of the Christian Endeavor Society and the Stoddart Baptist Old Folks' Home. From all indications this will be the largest audience by far that ever attended a "moot trial." There will be an unusual array of attorneys present to look after the interest of their clients, and as the Tribune is made party defendant, in a suit to enjoin it from publishing the latest news and being the just "It" in newspaperdom, the best counsel will be secured for its defense.
