HOTEL ROOSEVELT DRAWS COLOR LINE ON SOCIAL WORKERS First in Local Circulation. HOTEL RO Dr. A. B. Jack Bureau or Says Bureau is Trying to Make Propaganda to Stop Northern Migration Dr. A. B. Jackson; former Surgeon-in-Chief of the Mercy Hospital of Philadelphia, now Director of the School of Public Health of Howard University, has taken exception to the recent statements issued by the U. S. Census Bureau regarding the probable effect upon the Negro in America as result of his continued migration from the South to northern sections of the United States. In connection with this whole matter Dr. Jackson has the following to say: "It may and it may not be the duty of the census bureau to regulate interstate migration, but I very seriously question its right and duty to draw definite conclusions from half truths, appearing thereby to assume, a somewhat veiled spirit of propaganda. Just at the present moment much national concern is being manifested regarding an alleged labor shortage in the United States and its relation to foreign immigration and interstate migration of the Negro. And now the health question of the Negro is injected into the issue. "The census bureau gives out the following statement—evidently intended to discourage Negro migration to the North. 'In every one of the northern states Negro deaths in the five years, 1915-1919, outnumbered births; in the southern states, in general, the conditions are reversed.' As I write this I have before me a table showing the ration between deaths and births for colored people, and I take from it four northern states and four southern states and find the above statement is not altogether true. In three northern states there is an excess of birth rate over death rate and one shows excess death rate. In the four southern states exactly the same situation is found." Another statement follows. 'Through out the North and in the cities of the South Negro deaths are more numerous than Negro births—in fact, southern cities are even more unfavorable than those of the North to natural increase. In 1920 for the first time, the proportion of white children to white women exceeded that of Negro children to Negro women, the difference being 42 per 1,000.' Certainly there is nothing so remarkable about this statement, for in this birth "marathon" the Negro woman can afford to slow up for one year. Then, too, as a higher social and educational consciousness is being developed by the Negro, he is learning that fewer children born under better conditions make for a higher and better racial integrity—national integrity. For this he should be commended rather than censured and having the red flag of extinction flaunted before him—should he leave the South. "The sickness and death rate of the Negro is too high, higher than it should be for the good of both the Negro and America, yet both are to blame for the condition. However, let all be said that may be, every year shows a steady decline in the Negro death rate; for example, let us take Washington, D. C. a border line city between North and South. The death rate of Washington from 1900 to 1920 decreased from 29.5 to 20.6 per 1,000, all causes considered including the recent influenza pandemic. Taking a large group of northern and southern cities for comparison, it is interesting to note that in every instance the urban death rate for Negroes is always lower in the North than in the South. Another glittering truth which at once frustrates the idea of decadence and extinction of the Negro race is that the actual increase in life expectation at birth has been 7.0 since 1900 for males and 7.2 for females. In states with more than 5 per cent Negro population, the 1920 expectations at birth were 46.25 for males and 45.38 for females. As touching the infant mortality rate let us observe another group of northern and southern states and cities. Since 1917 there has been in the group studied a marked decrease in infant deaths per 1,000 births except one Opens Sundays Three P.M. The Washington Tribune PROPOSE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOLFOR SOUTHWEST "We are willing and ready to establish a Junior High School in the Randall-Cardoza group of schools in the southwest section of the city and will have in working operation by September," said Assistant Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson, when asked about the Junior School situation Tuesday. Mr. Wilkinson stated that they were now working out the details. It is possible that this Junior High will be made up of the seventh and eighth grades from the following schools; Syphax, Bowen, Giddings, Bell, Randall and Cardoza and very likely the seventh grade from the Lincoln school. "It is my plan" said Mr. Wilkinson, "to draw the Business High School out of Dunbar and place it in the Cleveland School, at the corner of 8th and T Streets, N.W., as soon as the annex to Garrison is finished; which we hope to be about September, but not later than November." By establishing the Junior High in the Randall-Cardozo group that will relieve the Shaw Junior High, and when the Business High is removed from Dunbar the crowding in that school will be relieved. That will give the Southwest a much needed Junior High School and a separate Business High. A. M. E. ZION CONFERENCE TO MEET HERE With six delegates to be elected for the General Conference of the A.

Oyster Asked to Give Colored Policemen Their Merited Promotions A large financial movement among our people has been growing so quietly during the past year or so that few people realized its meaning or its importance. This movement is the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation, whose advertisement appears in another column, officered and managed by a group of leading men of this city in conjunction with a number of the leaders in the business and professional life of several states.

Tells Whites Why Migration North Will Continue Jackson, Miss.—A statement drawn up in a mass meeting of prominent Negroes of Jackson, Mississippi, recently, explaining to the white citizens of the State the reasons for the exodus of colored labor from the South, was received and made public today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "The Negro feels that life is not safe in Mississippi," says the statement, "and his life may be taken with impunity at any time upon the slightest pretext or provocation by a white man." The statement which is signed by S. D. Redmond, colored lawyer and chairman of the Jackson mass meeting, continues: "The record filibuster, vote and defeat by the Southern representatives in Congress against the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, in the last Congress, has caused the Negro to believe that the South is irrevocably determined to perpetuate therein lynch law and mob violence in the South. "The Negro has generally despaired of obtaining his rights as a citizen in this section. He has lost faith and a few of the following facts all tend to force him to this conclusion." Among the outstanding grievances recited in the list are the following: recited in the list are the following: That twenty dollars is spent on the education of every white child in Mississippi against one dollar for every Negro child. That while there are 1,000 high schools for white children in the State there is but one such institution maintained for colored children. The report further states: "It appears that almost innumerable Negro tenant farmers charge their landlords with either no settlement or an unfair settlement, and many Negroes after appealing to both State and Federal authorities in vain, have given up in despair and sought other climes, some of them charging that a state of peonage exists in certain sections of the State. "The Negro charges that one white man's word may outweigh that of a hundred Negroes; that no public improvement as a rule is made in those sections of towns and cities occupied by Negroes." In addition the statement claims that Negroes in Mississippi, although they contributed more soldiers to the U. S. Army during the war than the whites, are completely excluded from all share in jury service, the ballot and from any participation in government. "This he holds responsible for all of his many inequalities and injustices under the law, and feel that notwithstanding the kindly feelings of many to the contrary, that such a state and condition must ever remain just as long as he is denied the ballot; since history affords no example of mutual co-operation, contentment and mutual welfare, where one group assumes guardianship of another and attempts to govern them without the consent of the governned." The report asserts that those Negroes who have left Mississippi cannot be brought back but that the exodus can be checked if conditions are remedied. Office: 920 U St., N. W.

PRICE 5 CENTS WORKERS Colored ed Promotions After 40 Years of Efficient Service, Not One Has Been Advanced The Civic Center of Affiliated Associations, which is waging a fight for more Negro policemen and firemen in the District; addressed a communication to Commissioner Oyster last week asking the Commissioner to investigate as to why there has been no Negroes promoted above the rank of sergeant. There are thirty-six colored policemen on the District force and a number of them have served for a number of years, but not one of these men has ever reached the grade of lieutenant or captain. The following letter fas sent to the The following letter was sent to the Commissioner on the 11th. My dear Sir: During the month of April, a committee representing the Civic Center of Affiliated Associations of the District of Columbia, voicing the sentiment of the colored citizens, urged the appointment of a police captain and lieutenant from the ranks of colored officers. For over forty years, colored men have served faithfully in safe guarding the lives and property of the District. They have, however, been kept almost in one status during this period. For intelligence, fitness and length of service, they deserve recognition and will measure up to the standard required of capable officers. In view of this indisputable fact, we ask that the present vacancies of captain and lieutenant be filled by colored men. Over one-hundred thousand and citizens of the city are tax payers and are aware of the injustice of with-holding merited promotion from them in the past. They ask now through us that you correct this wrong. The following is the reply to the above letter. My dear Sir: Permit me to acknowledge receipt of and thank you for your letter of May 11, and I wish you to know that I appreciate your suggestion. However, all of these appointments, promotions, etc., come directly as a result of the Civil Service Commission examination and certification. We have no choice but to appoint those certified by the Civil Service. Again thanking you, I am, Yours respectfully, (Signed) James F. Oyster, Commissioner, D. C. However, notwithstanding Mr. Oyster's statement, when the above vacancies were made known, the names of two white men who were to take the examination were immediately announced to receive the appointment. Why no colored men were named is not known. and spoke on the subject of "Big Brother and Big Sister work for Colored Children." There are about forty paid social Colored workers in Washington. Mrs. Eula Ross Gray is president of the local organization, known as the Washington Council of Social Workers, whose object is to unite all of the paid social workers in the District and to establish, develop and unify such association thru conferences, research work, and a general exchange of experiences.

The Tribune Sport Review Potomacs to Tour East after Series with Richmond Giants Manager Taylor's Men Well Received by Fans Who Show Loyalty by their Attendance PAGE FOUR Potomac Manager Taylor Received by Loyalty by Ben Taylor's Potomacs will make their final stand at the American League park Sunday afternoon, May 20th, opposing the Richmond Giants before taking the road on a trip that will keep the team away until the last week in June. The team will make its first stand in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Leaving there for Newark then to Harrisburg, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, winding up in the East by meeting the New York Lincoln Giants, Philadelphia Hilldales, and the Baltimore Black Sox. Either the Lincoln Giants or Philadelphia Hilldale will open here when the team returns. The Potomacs have drawn wonderfully well during their home stay. In fact the aggressive Potomacs have done something here that very few other teams can do and that is play eleven straight games at home and draw each day a good crowd, despite bad weather. If the present attendance increase continues, Washington will be one of the best colored baseball towns in the country. Ben Taylor and his Potomacs have found a warm spot in the hearts of local baseball fans. Playing here for the first time on May 10th, this entirely unknown aggregation drew in in one week more people than ever attended a colored baseball series. From the opening day, when the Potomacs set back the Atlantic City Bacharach Giants, the fans knew a first-class professional club represented Washington, and they rallied to its support. In taking the series from the Bacharachs who boast of some of the brainiest players in the pro ranks the Potomacs displayed real class. The last game of the series, unfortunately, ended with the umpire-in-chief declaring it forfeited to the Potomacs. the seashore team lacks but one thing—discipline. After the locals took the first pair of games the Giants gave the umpires considerable trouble with unnecessary arguing. In the final game with almost certain defeat facing them which meant loss of the series the team elected to quit. Spencer's Action Upheld Spencer's Action Opener In the eighth inning with the Potomacs leading 3-2, one out, one man on base, White the visitors' left fielder objected to a number of balls and demanded the pitcher be given a new one. Umpire Spencer pronounced the ball in use all right, and he instructed White to complete his turn at bat. After allowing the visitors sufficient time to resume play the game was declared forfeited. The decision met with general approval of the large crowd, a number of whom swarmed on the field to congratulate Umpire Spencer. Manager Taylor has been laboring under a handicap since leaving training camp. The cold, damp climate experienced at Richmond layed up over a half dozen with sore arms. Only three pitchers, Ross, Carr and Albritten are ready to go the route. Campbell and Williams may not be ready for a week or more. Goodrich whom Taylor had hoped to start the season at third is just getting strength in his wing. Lewis caught the first four games here hardly able to throw to the pitcher. Eggleton, first string catcher has been used at third where he has played a bang-up game. In addition to the sore arms, Brown, regular fielder and one of the best hitters on the team had his knee wrenched in an attempt to steal home during the Bacharachs series and will be lost to the team for two weeks. Washington, substitute outfielder sprained an ankle in Richmond and has been of no service. Taylor Pitches The scarcity of box material forced Manager Taylor to the mound in the rescue role last Sunday. Taylor, who by-the-way once ranked with the Race's greatest pitchers may have to take a regular turn on the hill until hot weather brings the entire staff around. The playing of Ridgeley, at second, the only Washington product on the team has been quite a surprise to the local populace. In previous years Ridgeley's work has been erratic but careful tutilage by Taylor has made him a finished infielder. Morty "Specs" Clark, shortstop is already a big favorite with the fans, as is Woods the flashy little centerfielder. Jefferson has shown to be one of the most aggressive, but has yet to strike his stride at bat. Carr, Ross and Albritten have shown wonderful form on the slab and with warm weather and proper rest between games this trio is sure to make it hard for opposing teams.

May 12—Manager Bolden's Hildale Club, of this place, retained their hold on first place in the league to day when they swamped the Brooklyn Royal Giants by the score of 13 to 5, knocking Cannon Ball Redding off the mound in the 7th and treating his successor Stark in the same way. "Babe Ruth" Santop edged into the home run class of the league when he hit the first ball pitched over the right field fence for a circuit clout in the 7th inning, this clout practically finished Redding. Although the Giants were the first to score, Hildale more than evened it up in their half of the first inning, when they scored three runs, also scored three in the 4th two in the 6th, one in the seventh and 4 in the 8th innings after two men had been retired.

WHICH KISS DO YOU REMEMBER Of all the kisses you have had in life—from mother, father, sweetheart, husband or wife—which do you remember above all the rest? In everybody's life there is generally one "ever mysterious kiss," alive and unforgettable. Charmon Winship discovers this in "The Darling of the Rich," Betty Blythe's latest starring vehicle which comes to the Broadway Theatre, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. This unusual photoplay deals with a young 'American girl' who suffers a Cinderella-like fate, and is elevated overnight from dire poverty to affluence and luxury. Men of power and wealth are at her command. Her drawing-room is crowded with millionaires. She lives like a modern queen, holding court in her Kingdom of Manhattan.

(12) THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, MAY 19, 1923 EMANCIPATION AND THE FREED IN AMERICAN SCULPTURE A Study in Interpretation By AN HENRY MORRIS MURRAY FREEMAN HENRY MORRIS MURRAY "THE NAVY" GROUP, BROOKLYN By Frederick MacMonnies So much of the general public as know him by his rollicking "Bacchante" and his lissom "Diana," but is not acquainted with his noble "Nathan Hale," would scarcely expect Frederick MacMonnies to rise to a great height when treating the heroic; nor would he be expected to rise to the height of placing a black man conspicuously in a group of heroes. But he did both of these things. MacMonnies' black hero is one of the Naval group on the Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial at the entrance to Prospect Park in Brooklyn. It required a noble man to conceive and to execute such a representation as late as 1900, long after the nation had grown cold, if not callous, toward its Black Defenders. Perhaps it was the short-lived flare-up of fair feeling which followed La Guasima, El Caney, and San Juan Hill which made it acceptable. But however that may have been, there he is—our unmitigated Negro sailor-boy—right at the front, pistol in hand and naked to the waist, poised on one knee, alert and tense: ready for instant action if an opper- P P The Navy (group) by Frederick MacMonnies intention will find the group most dramatic in its reserve. It becomes easy to persuade one's self that the vessel is sinking." Mr. MacMonnies' work on this group and on the corresponding Army group on the opposite abutment of the arch—as well as on the memorial as a whole—is such a notable and exceptional triumph that it justifies and deserves further notice. Here I cannot resist the desire to put in a little comment and interpretation of my own, although I might quote two or three pages of most lucid and graphic comment which is in the book from which I have already quoted. So, recurring to the "dramatic reserve" of the Naval group, I ask that you note the entire absence of theatrical or obtrusive heroics. A little gesticulation or vehemence would be as admissible here as in the Army group, opposite, with its "agitated contour; bayonets bristling on every side." But with the same courage, that manifests itself in other phases of this superb work, MacMonnies has employed a different and far more difficult method. Quiet, almost subdued, yet with a certain grimness, withal, it contrasts strongly with the havoc and tragic tumult in the army group. It also departs markedly from the impetuosity, as well as the carnage, which painters on canvas usually throw into the portrayal of a naval action. We have come to think this sort of action is characteristic of naval men— "When Death careering on the gale, Sweeps darkly round the bellied sail; And frightened waves rush wildly back, Before the broadside's reeling rack!" But the sculptor has reminded us that naval men are capable also of calm and resigned heroism—that very highest of heroism which faces an adverse fate tranquilly, and an imminent doom without panic and without quailing. Note how they stand together, a well-knit mass, yet with no semblance of huddling; ner is any one of them my one of them (To be continued) (Continued from last week) tunity should offer. Yet, like his fellows, he is facing an expected and rapidly approaching death; for MaeMonnies has conceived this group as gathered on the deck of a man-of-war, which, while not wholly free of the fray, is—and each of these men know it—hopelessly disabled and going to the bottom. Mr. Taft says: "For it was the sculptor's thought to show these men standing on the deck of a sinking vessel quietly awaiting their fate. Whether he has made this clear, or ever could by legitimate sculptural means, may well be questioned; but the spectator acquainted with his By seeking a possibility of saving himself individually. There is no indication of apprehension, much less of fright; no, not even where one might not be surprised to find it depicted; in the facial expression or the attitude of the one Negro in the group. Calmly, but decisively, an officer in the group points to some important incident that is transpiring at a distance; while one man, making a trumpet of his hand, leans forward, earnestly calling a message or a farewell; and surmounting all, a strong-limbed Bellona,—rather more haughty than fierce—while guarding and restraining the undaunted and mighty Eagle, floats exultingly down, along with her heroic wards. Only a dull and unresponsive mind could even briefly contemplate this group—having in mind the artist's intention and meaning—without experiencing a thrilling exaltation that would test his verbal powers to express. Surely we have the high-water mark of dramatic expression in American sculpture. As I studied this impressive group and as, in the light of what I had read and now felt, I gradually came as I supposed, to appreciate its meaning and its message, there was an impression that all had not been said. As I meditated there came thoughts of the fundamental oneness of high human sympathies; and of the forgetfulness of artificial barriers when a common danger threatens or disaster overwhelms. And it seemed to me also, that I could see outlined, or at least suggested, an idea which in the general grandeur of the memorial as a whole, may have escaped the observation of even so keen and sympathetic a critic as the one whose interpretation I have already mentioned. And why might not it be so? Who would claim that an examination, by never so competent a critic, though it covered hours or days even, would necessarily reveal all the thoughts, ideas, and emotions which, during the many months of contemplation, design, and construction, may have surged through the mind and soul of so conscientious and high-purposed, and so nobly endowed a man and artist as Frederick MacMonnies has shown himself to be? And what did my seeking eyes believe that they saw? Why, just this: that the broad-visioned and catholic mind which had admitted a Negro to an honorable place in this valorous group, had also included in it others of the principal racial and national extractions which unitedly compose this great nation and which make up the personnel of our splendid Navy. Perhaps it was imagination—hallucination, if you choose—but the more I examined and contemplated, the more convinced I became. And as I mused, it occurred to me that here, as well as at the dedication of the Crispus Attucks Memorial in Boston, O'Reilly, the noble-hearted Irish-American patriot and poet, migh have been moved to say— "Indian and Negro, Saxon and Celt, Teuton and Latin and Gaul— Mere surface shadow and sunshine, while the sounding unifies all; One love, one hope, one duty theirs: no matter the time or ken, There never was separate heart-beat in all the races of men!" TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE 1. I will never use the word "nigger." 2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race. 3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander. 4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race. ITEMS OF INTEREST In the current "Southern Workman" (published by Hampton Institute) may be found three illustrated articles: one on the Frederick Douglass Community Center, a recreational center in Toledo, Ohio, which is doing good work for the coloree people of that city; one on the important work which the Katy Ferguson Home, New York City, is doing for fortunate colored girls; and one on Abyssinia, one of the little known countries of Africa. Excerpts are given from Dr. S. C. Mitchell's recent address on Booker Washington, delivered at Tuskegee Institute on Founder's Day. Relating to advancement among Negroes are editorials on the training of colored church workers by the Episcopal Church; on the Co-operative Education Association of Virginia; and on the new publication, "Opportunity," of the National Urban League. An edition on the occupations of Negroes gives certain interesting comparisons between the census of 1910 and that of 1920. In an article on "Chief Moses Day" the author tells of the valuable work this old Indian chief has done for his race. A short but worth-while account of the late King Khama, one of the greatest native Christian chieftains of South Africa, is reprinted from the Natal (Africa) "Witness." The value of Junior high schools in rural sections is discussed in an address given at a meeting of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools. Mr. William Thompson gives a bit of valuable information concerning Abyssinia. "There is perhaps as little known of Abyssinia as of any country of the vast African continent. "The total population is estimated to be about 12,000,000, of which less than 3,500,000 are Ethiopians; these are the inhabitants of the provinces of Tigrai, Amhara, Gojam, and part of Shoa, which cover an area of over one-third of the whole country. "The larger part of the remainder of the population is Galla, and is estimated to number about 6,000,000. It is distributed mainly among the Danakils, Somals, and other negroid races and is usually referred to as the Shangalla; "The Abyssinian is Christian and tolerant to all religious creeds. Little or no effort is made by him for the conversion of the Moslem or Jew. From the end of 1829 missionaries of various denominations have entered Abyssinian territory." "The earliest was Samuel Gobat sent by the Church Missionary Society of England, who was followed in 1834 by two Franciscan monks, sent by the propagandists at Rome. It may be said to the credit of the Abyssinian that his religion has the greatest influence for good. "The country is dotted with churches, monasteries, and convents, the former being for the most part small and unpretentious, usually built in circular form and surmounted by a cross to which ostrich eggs are attached. The influence of the church undoubtedly sways the national policy." NEGRO ENCYCLOPEDIA FOLTON, Augustine, (Rev.)—Priest, Born of slave parents in Hannibal, Missouri in April, 1854. His parents moved to Quincy, Illinois in 1861. He was sent to Rome in 1880; studied in the Propaganda College; was ordained in 1887; returned to Quincy thereafter. He took charge of the colored catholics of Chicago, November 28, 1889. He was the first Negro priest in the United States. He built St. Monica's Church of Chicago. Died of sunstroke, July 9, 1897. He took some flour and some glue A THE REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA By A. Folumbo I. DeWalt A Native Liberian and a Denta Student of Howard University (Continued from last week) This calm but stern stand taken by Stockton saved the situation. The slave trader calmed down and became as mild as a suckling dove, and the palver was continued. The result was the signing of a deed of sale of several thousand acres of land to the colonists. This deed was duly executed and delivered on payment of the stipulated price by the agents of the United States Government, and thus was planted the seed of what is today the Republic of Liberia. During the period from 1822 to 1847 the colony was under the control of the American Colonization Society, and upwards of three thousand persons were sent over. Life to the colonists was not destined to be the most happy. Soon after the purchase, a large number of armed natives made their appearance and attached them. The attackers were driven away but, for months they annoyed the settlers, causing them to sleep on their firearms, and to build their cabins with their swords at their sides and their guns within reach. It was a time that tried the souls of men. This difficulty alone caused many hardships; but it was not the only enemy; one more persistent than the hostile natives, and deadlier by far, played havoc in that heroic colony. This enemy was the African fever. At that time, when there was nothing but stagnation, it is not amazing that malaria ruled supreme. Hundreds died shortly after their arrival while many died the following year. These conditions tried the faith of both the Government and the Colonization Society, in their early efforts. The situation became so trying at one time that the Society was about to abandon the project altogether. The hostile climate put to flight even the intripid Dr. Ayers. Suggestions were made that the colonists be returned to the States, and had it not been for the heroic conduct of one of the noblest men the world has ever known, Dr. Elija Johnson, there probably would not be to-day the Republic of Liberia. The name of Elijah Johnson is held in great reverence throughout the Republic. Like Touissaint L'Ouverture, he was brave and heroic; and like George Washington, he was patriotic and true. When the proposal to abandon the settlement was made to him, he lifted his voice and made this heroic declaration: "I have been two years searching for a home in Africa: I have found it, and I shall stay here." This courageous stand touched the hearts of the colonists and they resolved to establish, right then and there, a home and a government for themselves; their posterity; and their brethren who were still in bondage in America. They intended to succeed or to die in the attempt. The white agents thoroughly discouraged, abandoned the enterprise and Elija Johnson became Governor of the colony. The situation was gloomy. None but a strong and courageous man like Johnson could have faced it undaunted. The situation was most acute. Supplies became exhausted; the natives became more desperate, and the climate more deadly. The Governor and his followers must have felt like the American Pilgrim fathers when with bated breath, they said one to the other, "Our supplies are out!" In America it was death from the Indians, starvation, and cold at Plymouth Rock. In Africa it was death from hostile and raging Africans, fever and exposure. However, as the poet has said, "God moves in a mysterious way." Just as the situation was about to reach the pitch where the end would have been inevitable, God sent a ship to Cape Mesurado, the Liberian Plymouth Rock, with bread and thereby saved the adventurers' cause. Under the governorship of Johnson the colony grew, both in numbers and in development. Towns were built, roads opened up and commerce established. He and his co-workers finally decided that it was time that the experiment be brought to a close and something more permanent established. They communicated with the authorities of the Society in America, negotiating and making the necessary arrangements to further their advancement in their pioneer work, after which, with a hostile country to subdue, and a deadly climate to confront; with but little knowledge and insight into the complex machinery of statecraft; with no other source from whence to seek guidance but the philanthropic society which launched the experiment, they raised there, upon those memorable shores, the banner of Negro independence and freedom, which commanded the nations of Europe to awaken from their slumbers and recognize the "new born," and admit the strange, unique state into the family of nations. Startled rulers gazed and marveled that out of a handfull of liberated slaves, cast upon those unknown African shores, there should have come within the brief space of twenty-seven years, through the combined efforts of human genius and the ability of a determined body of free Negroes there was perfected a presentable model of human government.

FLORENCE COLES (Age 14) Dear Editor: Major Robert R. Moton was born in Virginia in 1867 and he graduated from Hampton in 1890. He began serving as Commandant of Hampton cadets about 1870. He has spoken for Hampton and led its singers all over the United States. He has written the story of his life for the "World's Work." He succeeded Booker T. Washington as principal of Tuskegee in 1916. He went to Europe during the World War in the interest of the Negro soldiers. He was the principal speaker at the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial at Arlington last year. JESSE E. JACKSON (Age 15) WHAT ONE BOY THINKS OF EDUCATION (The following is an attempt by J. Edward Quander, 14 to express his thoughts on the value of education.) Education is the one thing that both young and old should have. All parents should see that their children have an opportunity to get proper instruction. Children should remember that being present at school in body and not in mind is just as bad as not being present at all. The children should also make up their minds to give their full attention to their studies. It is altogether useless to study at school if you are going to study at home. When children stop school they do not realize what they are losing; they can not at this time see their mistake, but later in life they will see it, and regret their ignorance which was caused by their foolish idea of stopping school before they should have. If a child has completed the course of a grammar school, he has not received what we call a thorough education. The grammar school only prepares one for an education—so take my advice and go as far in school as you can. "The Trawler" an industrial publication made its appearance in 1915. It was published by Rucker Smith in Kansas City, Missouri. PAGE SEVEN DO NOT USE THE WORD "NIGGER" Announcing THE FEDERAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, Inc.

It was a blunder on the part of the Republican administration to locate a veterans hospital for Colored men at Tuskegee, but since it did locate one there, it made still another blunder in appointing white officials to man the hospital. If the administration saw fit to locate a Colored veterans hospital in the "black belt of the South" it should have had the foresight to realize that that hospital should be manned by Colored officials. It is begging the question to say that there is not a Negro physician able to manage such an institution. Freedmen's Hospital here in Washington has had a Negro as surgeon-in-chief ever since it was established. Mercy Hospital in Philadelphia, one in New York and one in Kansas City, Mo., are outstanding examples of the Negro's ability to man and manage such institutions as the one located at Tuskegee. The "cracker delegation" that came all the way to Washington to ask that only white men be put in charge of the government hospital for Negro veterans is another demonstration of the Southerner's inconsistency. He stands unqualified against social equality. But where there is an opportunity to draw down a good salary from the government and at the same time have an opportunity to assist Negro veterans to hurry out of this world, they not only ask for jobs, but send delegations to Washington to impress upon the "lily white" administration the vital necessity of giving them the important positions. The last announcement from the White House states that a white surgeon-in-chief will be appointed temporarily until a Negro can be found—which for political reasons will likely be a long, long time—possibly on the eve of the next election. The appointment of the white officials for the Negro veterans hospital at Tuskegee, and the failure of administration to appoint Colored men to accustomed positions in the present administration is a concrete example of the lack of influence of the Negro politicians. Of course Link Johnson et al will claim "the victory" for the Tuskegee appointments. The thoughtful Negro all over the land is thinking of the slight recognition given the race by the Republican party during this administration, and is to cast his vote accordingly, as was done last week in Baltimore, Md., where the Negro voted almost solidly for the Democratic Mayor who was elected. Dr. A. B. Jackson Differs With Census (Continued from page 1) southern city and one northern state both of which showed an increase. "The census bureau seems much concerned about the increase of Negro population in the urban centers, to which they are attracted by prosperous times, large wages and demand for labor, which fact they seem to lament and say: 'Should this prove to be the case the effect upon the labor supply in the South—and thus upon southern industry and agriculture—and upon the Negro race itself, will be very marked.' Note well please, the first consideration of the census bureau is the labor supply in the South and its effect upon southern industry and agriculture, and its secondary consideration is directed toward the Negro race, which it im- Ann Capita Announcing THE P Capital $25,000, Fully Paid a GOOD AGENTS The best investment that you will ever make, one requiring a minimum of outlay but which will return a maximum of income, is a HEALTH, ACCIDENT, LIFE or ENDOWMENT POLICY in The FEDERAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY Our HEALTH AND ACCIDENT POLICIES pay $1.50 to $10.00 weekly in case of Sickness or Accident.

"While we recognize and admit that the whole Negro death rate, especially his infant mortality is too high, there are many extinguating circumstances which enter as causal factors—and we are exerting every possible energy to overcome them—we must confess we have no fears that the race is threatened with extinction. If the South loses its Negro laborers that is the South's business. A talk with any migrant will convince you that each had a very definite reason for leaving the South, and strange to say all of them cite the same causes, another instance in which Negro opinion is a unit. Migration is a blow struck at the very heart of the South, more potent than any other the Negro could wield, and this signifies the development of a new race consciousness, a race intelligence and their accompanying majesty of calmness and poise, which builds hope upon subtle retreat rather than moon riot and nouncing TH total $25,000, Fully GOOD AGE "Every day finds Negroes coming North, and they will continue to come until the South finds some way to make a more equitable adjustment of its social and economic fabric to the ordinary rules of the game of humanity and human tolerance. They come bringing with them their problems, increasing our many vexing problems in the North, but they also come bearing gifts, and what is the weight of a perplexing problem, compared to the realization of a soul set free? They come, they sicken, they die, but what does that matter? A race as well as an army in transit must leave death in its wake, for in every struggle for liberty throughout the world's history human flesh and blood have paid the toll to obtain that freedom which makes death a pleasure—a privilege."
