ALA. DOCTOR IN CHARGE INSULTS RACE. NURSES DOING SCULLION WORK The government's two million dollar Veterans Hospital, located at Tuskegee, Ala., opened June 1st with the entire personnel of white doctors. The hospital staff is in charge of a Dr. Robert H. Stanley of Greenville, Ala., a Southerner of the worst type. All nurses are white, with colored assistants. The above facts are true despite the many statements and letters from Mr. Christian, the President's private secretary, and from President Harding himself, promising a complete colored personnel. The denials by the Veteran Bureau and the pussyfooting of Major R. R. Moton, now appear in their true light. When the hospital opened, this Dr. Stanley was asked by a reliable newspaper correspondent who was at Tuskegee at that time, if there were to be any colored doctors at all, and Stanley replied in choice Southern language that he was from Greenville, Ala., and that he never would have "niggers" working with him. He further stated that when he accepted the assignment it was with the explicit understanding that he was not to be bothered with "niggers." When this Alabama cracker, whose knowledge of medicine according to reliable authorities is far below that of an interne, started selecting his "jim-crow" nurse-assistants, he would ask the young ladies their names and when told "Miss Jones," he would abruptly blurt out, "What is your first name?" When told, "Mary," he would then say, "Now, Mary, you are to be the assistant to Miss Williams, the white nurse." As there are no colored doctors at the hospital, the colored women who work there are at the mercy of these white crackers, with no one to protect them. Most of these women are trained nurses but are doing practically scullion work, while the Southern white women sit around and order them about. A number of the women are forced to do personal service work. The deplorable state of affairs at this hospital, which has only been opened a week, has placed Major R. R. Moton and Tuskegee Institute in a very embarrassing position. Major Moton who at first announced that he was for a complete colored personnel, has completely reversed himself. While Mr. Moton has made no such announcement himself, he has permitted white Southern papers to give this impression and he has made no open protest. While the colored press of the country has been vociferous in its denunciation of Dr. Moton's position, not one word of protest or enlightenment has come from Tuskegee. The Tribune sent a special telegram to Dr. Moton last week asking information as to his position, but the "Doctor" simply referred us to some one else over a thousand miles from Tuskegee. Just why another person should answer as to where Dr. Moton stands on a public matter instead of Dr. Moton answering for himself is a puzzle. The hospital is now open and poor helpless wounded and maimed soldiers are being sent there by a supposedly friendly government. Those who are to receive and treat them (Continued on page 6) Wanted at Several Boys to serve newspaper Friday and Saturday work only.

Dr. Bowen is Speaker STRESSESNEEDOF MORE BUSINESS COOPERATION Speaking at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church on last Tuesday night, Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, traced the history and development of commerce in its relation to the attainments of nations and races, and emphatically declared that when the colored people of this country have developed commercially as they have along other lines, they will be able to command the enactment of an anti-lynching bill or any other remedial legislation they may desire. His subject was "The Need of Our Commercial Development," and he spoke in part as follows: "Those who have followed history know that even in ancient and medieval days races of people sought to get closer and closer together in order that commerce might be developed. But we are divided in religion, in commerce, in industry and almost in our domestic relations. We cannot get together, and when we do get together, we cannot stay together. "In Washington where we have the very best school system and where we have, as it were, brains going to waste, in proportion to our population, we have less commercial enterprises than any other city in the United States. "At this season of the year when hundreds of our boys and girls are graduating from the colleges and high schools, I want to ask you, what are you going to do to give those boys and girls employment? Are you going to send this son, who has just graduated from some college, to seek a messenger's job in the Government service? What are you going to get for them to do if we are not going to develop commercial enterprises. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1923 SCENES AT FUNERAL OF COL. CHARLES YOUNG That Howard University is continuing to fulfill in a large and important way the enviable place of leadership it has gained among educational institutions in America specializing in the training of colored youth is evidenced by the new record set by Howard University this year when three hundred and eleven degrees were conferred upon graduates of the Classes of 1923 by President J. Stanley Durkee at the Fifty-Fourth Annual Commencement exercises held on the University Campus, Friday June 8th. When the announcement went forth last year that 245 degrees were conferred upon graduates of the Class of 1922 of Howard University in the Liberal Arts, Science, Religion, Law, Medicine, Pharmacy, Music, Engineering, and Architecture, it was heraled as a great record in the history of colleges in the United States devoted to educational work among colored people. This year's class of 311 has broken the old record by 66 graduates. In addition to the degrees in regular courses, honorary degrees were conferred upon Charles Edward Russell of Washington, D. C.; James Weldon Johnson, New York City; James Upshur King, Washington, D. C.; Mordecai W. Johnson, Charleston, W. Va.; and Daniel Smith Lamb, Washington, D. C. The ceremonies in connection with the Commencement Exercises began with the academic procession which started from the steps of the Howard University Carnegie Library at three o'clock Friday afternoon led by the R. O. T. C. Band which played the processional march. The procession was headed by Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, President; Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer; Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, of Gammon Theological Seminary, Atlanta, Ga., the Commencement Orator; the candidates for honorary degrees; and included Trustees, Deans, Professors, members of the various academic professional faculties, graduates, and alumni.

Negro Exodus Amounts to Strike New York City—The migration of trainloads of Negroes northward from the Southern states is tantamount to a strike against intolerable living conditions, low wages, poor schools, injustice in the courts, the brutalities of the Jim-Crow system and lynching, according to a statement issued today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City. "Trainloads of Negroes migrating northward from the Southern States, are evidence of a concerted movement, really a strike against the intolerable conditions now prevailing in the South. Of course, the lure of higher wages in the North is playing its part. "Recognition of the part ill-treatment of the Negro has played in bringing about the loss of its chief source of labor by the South, is coming from the white people themselves. In Alabama and Mississippi the white people are belatedly talking about giving the Negro schools some share in the distribution of educational funds. In Florida the lumbermen are planning a campaign having for its object better treatment of Negroes in the lower courts, remedy of the convict leasing and fee systems, by which Negroes are arrested on trivial charges. "The departure of Negroes from the South literally by the trainload is speedily bringing about a virtual revolution in the traditional Southern attitude. The Jacksonville, Florida, Journal of May 24 reports a movement among lumbermen embracing the territory of Georgia, Florida and southern Alabama, to abolish the fee and convict lease system. 'A Negro arrested is a Negro convicted' is the sentiment admitted by these men to prevail among the lower courts at present. The program of the lumbermen, as outlined in the Jacksonville Journal includes not only reform of court procedure, but building of churches for Negroes and improving their surroundings and living conditions. "Additional testimony of the force of the present movement comes from steamship companies, one of which, the Merchants and Miners' Steamship Company, has issued a warning that its service to Jacksonville will be curtailed unless it is possible to obtain more labor.

ITAL RAILROAD REFUSES TO SEND PREPAID TICKETS TO SOUTH Atlantic Coast Line Turns Down Transportation for Insurance Agent The Chambers of Commerce of the South have combined and requested the railroads to stop issuing prepaid transportation to Negroes, in order to curtail the remarkable migration of Negroes to the North. This fact was brought to light here last Friday when S. W. Rutherford, secretary of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, applied for a ticket over the Atlantic Coast Line, to be delivered to a Mr. Oliver, in Savannah, Ga., so that he could come to Washington and join the sales force of the National Benefit. On Friday, June first, Mr. Rutherford telephoned the local office of the Atlantic Coast Line and asked the price of a ticket from Savannah, Ga., to Washington. The agent ask Mr. Rutherford: "Is this for a white person?" Mr. Rutherford answered "No." Agent: "What is he coming for?" Mr. Rutherford: "To work for us as an insurance solicitor." Agent: "Well, come up and make arrangements then." Mr. Rutherford went over to the office of the A. C. L. 1418 H. St., northwest and deposited $22.24 with L. J. Irwin, Agent, for a ticket to be delivered to C. C. Oliver, in Savannah, Ga. Friday morning Mr. Irvin telephoned Mr. Rutherford to know for sure if Oliver was really doing insurance soliciting in Savannah and not laboring. He was informed that he was doing insurance work in Savannah and was coming here to do the same work. "If that is the case I think I can get it thru for you," said the agent. Later on the agent called and said that he found it impossible to get the ticket thru. Mr. Rutherford took one of his clerks with him and went over to the office that afternoon to get understanding as to why the ticket was not sent. He saw Mr. Irwin who told him "To be frank with you, the colored people are leaving in such great numbers until the Southern white people complained and took up the matter with the Chambers of Commerce in that section, and as a result, the Interstate Commerce passed a law to the effect that no more prepaid orders for transportation could be accepted." Mr. Shelby J. Davidson, secretary of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., who also accompanied Mr. Rutherford asked Mr. Irwin "Does this law have reference to colored people of the laboring classes only?" Mr. Irwin: "This law refers only to colored people regardless of occupation." "This law has been in effect ever since the World War, but it has not been enforced until recently." On Monday of this week, Mr. Davidson took up the matter with the Interstate Commerce Commission and was informed that no such order had been promulgated by the Commission. He was informed that the railroads could issue such an order but there must be no discrimination. When it was called to the Commission's attention that flagrant discrimination was being practiced even by roads entering Washington he was told to file affidavits to that effect and the Commission would investigate the same. Affidavits were filed and the case is in the hands of the Inter-state Commerce Commission. --- LOCALS AND SOCIETY PAGE TWO REPORT OF 1923 GIRL RESERVE CONFERENCE By a Girl Reserve By a Girl Reserve Philadelphia, Pa.—The third Annual Girl Reserve Conference met at the Southwest Branch of the Philadelphia Y. W. C. A. from May 25th through May 27th. In my opinion the establishment of the Annual Girl Reserve Conferences is one of the greatest things that has ever been done for the girls, not only of America, but of the world. The general program is planned by the National Girl Reserve Board. The theme this year was taken from a poem by Angela Morgan. The theme is, "To be Alive in such an age! To live to it! To give to it!" Each year the theme, chosen for that year, forms the basis of discussions and talks. The first meeting of the 1923 conference was held at 8: p. m. Friday, May 25th. At this meeting Grace White, the chairman of the conference, a Philadelphia Girl Reserve, welcomed the secretaries and the delegations. A Coatesville delegate, Thelma Shores responded to the welcome. At 9:30 a. m. Saturday, we had devotions led by Mildred Smith of Wilkes-Barre. The exercises were followed by a discussion led by Otwiner Smith of Washington. Questions affecting the conference were among those discussed. Mrs. C. A. Winn, a National Secretary, talked on the topic, "Give Thanks and Class Thy Heritage." After an intermission a discussion was held on "Our Purpose." This discussion was led by Miss Crystal Bird, a National Girl Reserve secretary. At 2:00 p.m. the song contest was held. Germantown won the silver cup offered as a present for the best song. After this the delegates went on a three-hour, sight-seeing trip. "Then came the banquet, the most jolly of all the meetings. The toast-mistress was Rosetta Harris, of Germantown, who spoke on "The Challenge of the Age to Girl Reserves." Thelma Shores of Coatesville spoke on the second phrase of the theme "To Live to it" and Leota Stevens of Camden, on the third phrase, "To Give to it." The banquet was brought to a close with an interesting talk by Mrs. Alice Dunba Nelson on the first phrase of the theme, "To be Alive in Such an Age." ```markdown ``` THE JONQUIL EMBROIDERY CLUB The Jonquil Embroidery Club held its closing Dansante of the season on Tuesday evening, May 29, at Odd Fellow's Hall, M.

NEGRO EXODUS AMOUNTS TO STRIKE (Continued from page 1) the Clyde Line increased wages recently without appreciable effect upon the labor shortage. "Even from Virginia, in an editorial of the Richmond News-Leader comes the statement, that 'The South, finally, must improve the living conditions of its Negro workers, who are now in a veritable migration and are going wherever they have the promise, however illusory, of better things. They no longer are held back by timidity or by ignorance of the outside world, as once they were, and many of them are pathetically susceptible to the lure of high wages, even for temporary employment. If the South is to retain these Negroes, it must make them as contented as is practicable. In some places, this calls for better treatment and freedom from fear; everywhere it means better homes and, generally speaking, better pay. "The northward movement of Negroes from the South is in fact a strike against the industrial and social conditions prevailing there. In the migration the Negroes are bringing into play the economic power of their labor which is naturally more effective than any mere appeal to sentiment." Stresses Need of More Business Cooperation (Continued from page 1) "My friends, there is nothing that will come so nearly protecting the home and the fireside, the womanhood of our race, as commercial development. "As long as we are thriftless, as long as we are without commercial enterprises, we shall stand around and look for a political or an industrial hand-out—we cannot command anything. Commerce begets independence, and independence begets character. Then, let us get together and develop commercially as we have otherwise." The meeting was held under the auspices of the Prudential Bank, and a large crowd was present.

SPECIAL RECITAL BY MISS JOHNSON'S PUPILS A BRILLIANT SUCCESS The special recital given Tuesday evening, May 29, 1923, at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, 14th and Corcoran Streets, N. W., by Miss Lillian Theresa Burke, Coloratura Soprano; Mrs. Minnie Richardson-Powell, Mezzo Soprano, and Miss Dorothy Elizabeth Snowden, Pianist, pupils of Eva Virginia Johnson was the best pupil recital ever given in this City. Although the programme was a difficult one, every number was memorized, and splendidly done, showing most careful training, study, and accuracy, and brilliancy in the rendition. A large and appreciative audience was present, and every number was most enthusiastically received. Miss Johnson, who is a graduate in music from the University of Pennsylvania, and a pupil of the late Dr J. W. Bischoff, of this city, is well known for her ability as a teacher, and artist; and one of our most progressive teachers. The Half Century Magazine, a well known Race magazine, published in Chicago, in speaking of Miss Johnson's work, said that she is one of the best, and most successful teachers the Race has produced. Every year large audiences are attracted to the Annual Recitals of her pupils. Miss Johnson has one of the largest classes in the city, and she works untiringly for the success of her pupils. The three young ladies in this recital are well known in the city, Miss Burke is Librarian at Armstrong Technical High School; Mrs. Powell, soloist in Asbury M. E. Church; and Miss Snowden a clerk in Union Savings Bank. They are careful, painstaking students, continuing to study, and they have a bright future.

C. during the Spring, conducted a scholarship drive, to the end that they may send at least one worthy colored girl to college next year. TXis is philanthropy of the highest. type where charity is ideally expressed in a worthy cause. ‘The women of the club worked in groups. The Musie Group who planned to raise their quota by means of a music sale, sent out a special letter to music-lovers throughout the country. The personnel of this group are among the most talented musicians of the country who con- tribute much towards the advance- ment of music in civie life, and help maintain its higher standard in the musical world, as follows: Estelle Pinkney, Fannie Douglas, Mary Eu- rope, Mary Gibson, Rosabelle Lane, Eva Dykes and Ruth Weatherless, treasurer. We are not going to discuss the matter other than to commend tne et~ fort heartly in a public sense and to call attention to the fact that the personnel of this particular Music Group, gifted as they are, should by no means disband on completion of their specifie task but “Continue as such in the hope ultimately that Washington may boast of some one worthy music organization as a branch of the Negro Musicians As- sociation or as an independent local body not affiliated otherwise. ‘This group could form the neuclus of a powerful local body in the making and would do credit to the city and national capital as such. The “Baby Pianist” of Washington In recent months we have read much of musical prodigies of youth among the.white race. First came the youthful Russian boy piano wonder who rattled off the most severe and taxing classic compositions with the ease of « master pianist of the day. In fact this little Russian boy ex- cited the admiration of even such a master musician as Rachmaninoff who upon hearing him exclaimed, “I can- not teach him anything further” and yet the boy is but cleven years old, whose mother taught him in his early years. ‘ Next we read of the fourteen-year old pianist, Madeleine Lazard von Un- schuld who showed sureness and bril- Haney of technic, as well as artstic interpretation and feeling unusal for so young a child in her recital in this city recently. She played. from Bach, Saint-Saens, Beethoven and Chopin and the University of Music conferred upon her the degree of bachelor of music with distinetion in the group of the artist course and the teachers’ certificate, Besides, this girl returned only recently from a concert tour. Now, we come to Constance H. Rus- sell, styled “Baby Pianist” of Wash- fee the “Eyening Star”, who gave“wo groups of compositions by the masters on the program presented by her teacher at the white Normal School quite recently. She is but a “tot” so to speak in both age and physique but she can play composi- tions of the masters. Where are the musical prodigies of youth among our race? There are a few to be sure, found here and there perhaps but unknown to the world at large, or even locally. In New York city, we believe, we find a few colored children who excell in music to some degree but here in our own city, Washington, how many children of promise in the musical world may we find? How mariy have we heagd in recital? They are few and far be- tween, if any, but we should seek after them more and more, Too few parents insist upon a complete musical education among the children of our race, the reason per- haps, may be found in their ignor- ance of music as an educational as- set and its value in training or, lack ‘of mutual interest in the talent of the child. Think of a white youth. re- ceiving bachelor’s degree and teachers’ certificate at the age of only fourteen-years! Comprehend if you please, a boy of eleven confound- ing one of the greatest pianists of modern times! What, O what are we doing for our own children in music? Are we continually to neglect the grand opportunities facing our children and the duties involving upon us as parents and guardians of trust? ‘i Develop our adult as we should and will ‘but <don’t neglect training that child as there are hundreds of undeveloped musicial geniuses among the youth of our race and its high time that we were about our task of developing them. Little ‘Miss Burnetta Bullock, the five-year-old daughter of Rev. and Mrs, G. 0.

Lou!s RAYBOLD, | Nt en? eee meneame ee aa (©, 1921, by MoClure Newspaper Syndicated “ihere!” exclaimed Jobim Chester, turning the key iu the old lock, “That's over!” He swung down the trim, box- bordered path, out through the sag- glug gute, und along the elm-shaded Girt road that led to the railroad sta- tion, So intent was he on catching the uflernoou train to the city that he failed to notice the sin girl coming up just behind him, and she, at his disregard, merely sighed without quickening her pace to overtake him. She sighed because it was, In all prob- ability, the lust she would ever see of John Chester. Nor did she need the “For Sale” sign which John had just tacked up to know what for days had been town gossip—that the last of the Chesters liad rejected the, manner of living of his fathers and was going to the city to seek his fortune. "ut, because of it, she sighed. Not that there had ever been @ love affair between them, As the days passed, the sign of the shuttered old Chester house, fast show- ing signs of unoccupancy, grew to trouble Sara, ‘The farm, unsold and untenanted, was running down. This faet, coupled with reports which drift. ed back from the city that John Ches- ter’s fortune was proving elusive, and that he was shifting from one Job to another, tormented her with a sense of the waste of good material and of her own fimpoteney in the matter, Came a sunny day in late March when Sara cast « bombshell at the feet of the aunt with whom she lived. “Aunt Julie,” she gave out casually over her cup of tea, “I'm going to Spend next week-end in the city.” “Sara!” her aunt's voice was star- Wed. “Of all things, Sara!” “Yes, that’s just what I'm going to do,” returned Sara unperturbed. “And furtherimore—do you remember those oil stock certificates that Cousin Jenny left me? Well, I'm going to take them along. Who knows, perhaps they're not as worthless as I've thought them. Just suppose—" and her blue eyes grew dreamy, “perhaps they will bring me my fortune!” Now {t happened that several days after this conversation there walked into the outer oltice of Whitby & Whitby, brokers, a shabby looking youth with tired Ines about his eyes and mouth, A sound of volees from the Inner office assured him that his ewployer was occupied, und sitting down at a dingy desk he rested his head on his hand while his thoughts traveled backward over the discourag- ing mouths. Where was he headed? ‘This all but questionable firm in whose employ he was at present held out no future for him. Little by little, taught by bitter experiences, he had learned how unfitted he was to com- pete with men trained for their jobs. Into Lis meditations crept memo- ries of home, of green flelds tilled by his father and his grandfather and his grandfather's father, of substan- tial barns, of the cheery homely dwelling. And with those visions arose persistently the picture of a certain slim, blue-eyed person, the playmate of his boyhod, whom, in his feverish pursuit of fortune, he had all but forgotten. . John Chester sut suddenly upright. Who in thunder was in the Inner of- fice talking with old Whitby? “—yes, I hoped,” went on a pluln- tive voice that awoke in him a sudden, tremendous response, “to real- ize something on this stock. | You see, T have « chance to make a splendid investment. I can buy the old Ches- ter place back home. It is a farm farmed for generations by men who knew how to husband the resources of the soll, But if these certitleates are worthless, as you say—” And then followed the suave tones of his employer. “Just so much waste paper, my dear young lady, ‘Too bad.” A moment later te door opened and Johu, risen to his feet, met the level, blue-eyed gaze of Sara Cary, “I—why, why, Sara!” was all he managed. ‘Then: “Wait—let me walk @ way with you.” For several blocks through the streaming late afternoon traffic of which neither was aware, they walked silently. Sara was the first to speak. “John,” she said gently, “the—the bluets are up in the swamp plece. And Dutchmen’s Breeches. Remem- Der how we used to go after them?” “Do I?” exclaimed Johm fervently. ‘Then he turned impulsively. “Sara!” he erled, “I'm—I'm sick of ft all— the hurry, the nolse, the crowds, I'm “oh, Sara, I'm going back home!” But not until their very wedding day did John learn the real secret of Sara's trip to the city. “I can't bear to think,” he had chanced to say as they stood for a moment side by side on the clematis-draped porch of the RED STAR SPECIAL. By MARY MORE ane (@, 1921, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) A fitful bi caught the gayly painted sign oss over the door abd set it vinging gently to and fro above John Heury’s head. It told au indifferent world that John Henry of 81A Bleecker street sold lawn mowers, Up and down the sun-baked street, torpid in the August heat, there was hot a sign of life; it might have been a deserted village. “Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse)” wurmured Jobu Henry to himself. Somehow it al! reminded John Heury of the sumer two years ago when he had been salesman for the Red Star Special Lawnmower com: pany and had tried to sell a machine to a pretty girl in a small town up in Connecticut. Whenever John Henry thought of her standing there in the decrway of the litte old farmhouse, with the sun in her hair and the blue sky in her eyes, he was conscious of @ little jump I his heart beats. He closed his eyes aud the whole scene cume back to him, He had spoken eloquently of te way a Red Star Special worked, “A lawn mower! 1 wouldn't buy a lawn mower If J had so much money that I had to hire a bank to take care of It, Look at that one under the tree there—works a few minutes a day und sleeps all the rest of the time. Does nothing but cut grass from one year’s end to another, I hate grass und trees and—oll! very much and—lawnmowers. If you were selling city pavements und crowded street cars or something that really lived, Mr, Agent, Pd buy. But as it is, Vil save my money for carfare to a place where there is no grass that needs to be cut.” She had turned on ner heel and slammed the door in Jolin Henry's face. He gave a sigh as he remembered the picture she had made in her pink gingham dress, her sun-tanned cheeks flushed with anger at lawn mowers: and life in general, He was wonder- ing where she was now and if she had ever saved up enough money for carfare, when a soft exclamation from the doorway made hin turn quickly around. “Oh, what beauties! What perfect beauties!” came in tones of hushed fervor, Phere, but for the gingham dress and the angry discontent, stood, the girl from Connecticut! Her Fréhch heeled slipper and blue georgette ftock Upociiied her Véry much of the elty, cftified—hut Jolin Henry knew her in an instant, “How much are they?” she went vn, while he continued inadequately to mop his brow. “I do not know how I can use one exactly in an apart ment—but somehow I think I'd just love to have one around. I suppose I could use it as a sort of hatrack ef- fect. Painted black, with a rosebud pattern on the handle, it might be quite effective.” She paused a moment in deep thought, and then suddenly inquired: “I don’t suppose by any chance these are Red Star Specials?” ‘Then for the first time she looked straight at John Henry. Bleecker strect outside was beginning to wake up, for from a block or so off came the softened jangle of a hurdygurdy and a boy's voice singing so that they could hear the words quite plainly: “A veranda with some sort of clinging vine, And a Kitchen where the rambler roses elimb."" “Oh!” sald the girl, “It’s you. Mr. Agent, isn’t it?” “Yes,” answered John Henry, rather breathlessly. “I had just been wonder- ing whether you ever saved up enough—carfare, and then I looked up and here you are.” “Better than a paldce with a gilded dome Is a love-nest we can call home—" came the boy's voice outside, nearer this time. “When you saw me that day I wouldn't even talk elvilly to you about lawn mowers—though we really did need a new one—just because they stood for the grass and trees and coun- try. I thought I was ‘fed up.’” “Today,” she continued, “when I saw your green sign, I would give any- thing I possess to be running one up and down, up and down—" “Here,” said John Henry, thrusting the handle of his chotcest grade A into her hand, “Try ft. I often do." Quite solemnly they walked back and forth over the dusty boards of John Henry's Bleecker street store, the wishing-carpet of thelr Imaginations taking them far away to some grass- covered slope in the Connecticut hills. Then, suddenly, catching each other's eye, they broke into a gale of laugh- ter such as Bleecker street- had never heard before.

Elias Brown the hard hitting, outfielder who wrenched his knee in the series with the Bacharachs has joined the team. His presence will bolster the hitting strength greatly. The team is in a rather crippled condition. Washington has been sent home where he will remain until his broken ankle mends. Clark is playing under the strain of a badly lamed Triumphant the W Manager Taylor has looked over a number of new faces since leaving home. Dwiggins a local product was tried out in Cleveland, but soon was releaved, not able to make the grade. Williams, the big righthander who was left behind is rounding into shape by working out each morning at the park. It is expected that he will soon be ready to go the route. Two games are scheduled for Harrisburg, two for Newark and three for Philadelphia this week. A quick jump will be made to Cleveland, Pittsburg and Youngstown the week following, on June 24 the Taylormen will meet the Baltimore Black Sox in a double header on the latter's ground. The club will open its home stay at American League park on July 2nd opposing the Harrisburg Giants. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1923 Dr. Alexander Announces U.S. Young as NewCoach at Lincoln University Lincoln University, Pa.—During commencement exercises Dr. W. G. Alexander, Graduate Manager of Foot Ball, gave out the following statement: "Lincoln University sincerely regrets that it will not have for another year the splendid services of Ex-Captain John H. Law, as Director of Athletics and foot ball coach. THE FOOTBALL TEAM Ex-Capt. John H. Law, Lincoln Univ.

Then in the ninth before a man had retired, Hilldale pushed over the winning counter, when Mackey opened with a double and came home on a single to right field, Which Baro allowed to scoot past him, Macked scoring with ease.

"While the University regrets the loss of the services of Mr. Law, yet it feels that it has been more than fortunate in securing as Director of Athletics and Coach of football, basketball land baseball, Mr. U. S. Young, who at the present time is Athletic Supervisor of colored schools in Evansville, Ind. Mr. Young is a graduate of Lincoln University, class of 1917. Since his graduation he has been actively engaged in coaching high school and Y. M. C. A. teams. During the past two years the teams which he has coached at Evansville have been considered the best in that section of the country. While at Lincoln Mr. Young was noted for his versatility. He was an honor student the leader of the University Glee Club, a member of the football squad a member of the baseball team and captain of the base ball team. In addition to this he was one of the most popular students in the University, and while he had the absolute confidence of the faculty, he was a recognized leader of the 'Rabble.' "Mr. Young is coming to Lincoln under a three-year contract. This will insure a continuance of our policy for sometime to come. The management believes that no better selection could have been made than that of Mr. Young." Coach Law is a graduate of Lincoln and was captain of the 1921 team which defeated Howard at Philadelphia. Last year was his first year in the capacity of Coach and he succeeded in turning out winning teams in all branches of sport. His football team defeated Howard in Washington last fall.

The per- sonnel of the group was notable, in- cluding the presidents of the State Federation of. Women’s Clubs, the State Association of University Wom- en and the Woman's Legislative Coun- cil, and of nearly all the great de- nominational missionary organiza- tions. s The group accepted membership in the Inter-Racial Committee and isqued a statement of principles, declaring that justice must be made to prevail in race relations and that all move- ments for better citizenship, public health, sanitation, education, recrea- tion and religion must include the Ne- gro, both for his own sake and also for the common welfare. State and local authorities were called upon to protect all citizens alike, regardless of color, and the idea that lynching is ever justified was vigorously repu- diated. ‘The press was asked to cooperate in the demand for a fair deal for the Negro and to give more publicity to his worthy achievements and relative- ly less to his shortcomings. On the basis of their special inter- est in the home, the women pledged themselves to a study of the needs of Negro homes and to the effort to remedy such conditions as threaten their welfare and purity. Women’s organizations of this char- acter have now been set up in all the Southern States éxcept Kentucky and Mississippi and have begun to fune- tion effectively in a number of states. The movement is promoted by the Southern Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation with headquarters in At- Janta. THEATRE NOTES FRIDAY, 13TH, LUCKY DAY? Many persons regard Friday, the 18th, as violently unlucky. Pola Negri believes this, but George Fitz- maurice; famous picture — producer. believes that all Fridays are lucky for him and that Friday the 13th, is the luckiest of all. So that’s how it happened that Mr. Fitzmaurice started production work on “Bella Donna” on Friday, the 13th, but Miss Negri, who is starrin in this splendid story, made her debut the fol- lowing day. “Bella Donna,” which comes to the Broadway Theatre Sunday, is Pola Negri’s first American-made picture A notable cast headed by Conway Tearle and Conrad Nagel is seen in support of the star in this Paramount picture, ADVERTISE IN AMOS HOKUM Hampton, Va.,—Following the in- tercollegiate track meet at Hampton, the coveted “H. T. T.” was awarded to Capt. Reuben F. Jones of Balti- more; Edward L, Dabney, Hampton, Va.; Wheeler C. Ervin, Darlington, 8. C.; Edward Hargrove, New York; Ralph Graham, Phoebus, Va.; Wil- liam McK. King, Cynthiana, Ky.; Ju- nius T. Langston, captain-elect for 1924, Whaleyville, Va.; and Ellsworth P. Woodson, North Long Branch, N.J. The men were awarded letters on the basis of three or more points scored during two meets. Five of these men will be graduated in June. It is hoped that the material on hand, plus the new material, will be in a position to regain the intercolle- giate track championship that was re- cently lost to Howard by a difference of two points. | (Arlington, Va.—The hard hitting Arlington Athleties with the sensa- tional pitching of Snow on the mound defeated the Cross Roads team in their tenth start of the season 15 to 0. Minor for the Athletics accepted six chances and hit a home run, triple and a double in four trips to the plate. Richardson up three times hit safely in all three attempts and Washington Iknown as “Spark Plug” showed the public that he was qualified to assume that name when he camped under a couple of drives that meant runs. The Athletics got to Henry for fit- ‘teen of their twenty-one hits, He was derricked for their ace, Roy Powell, and the Athletics took to his twisters like a duck takes to water, and pound- ed him for six hits and as many runs, The Athletics made four doubles, one triple and a home run, while Snow allowed eight hits of which two were doubles.

Richardson THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1923 District Twilight League Has Raised Standard of Sand-Lot Ball. Seven Teams Competing. | A new epoch in local amateur and independent baseball saw its beginn- ing this spring with the formulation of the District Twilight League. ‘The league began operating on April 22nd with eight of the strongest in- dependent clubs in the city compos- ing its membership. Seven of these clubs have stuck to the task of put- ting local baseball as played on sand- lots on a higher plane. The league works by a regular schedule with games booked for each Sunday on three local diamonds. Not alone has Ge: lompue’ oun dante ‘mental in awakening a new interest in this particular brand of baseball, but has converted hundreds of new fans, and has been the medium of a new understanding between the Mana- gers and players, The continued Buceess of the league will mean that the best independent team in the city this year will win the title on its merits. At the present writing the LeDroit ‘Tigers are leading the league having met and defeated every: team in the cireuit. The Tigers under Manager wat is truly a formidable combina- tion having batting-strength, acapable pitching staff, probably the best field- ing team in the league and boasts of a profound knowledge of the game. League Schedule June 10— LeDroit Tigers—Teddy Bears (Cath, Univ. Grds. 1 P. M.) Piedmonts—Brookland (Cath. Unive. Grds. 3 P. M.) Asburys—Deanwood (Deanwood, 2:30 P.M.) June 17— LeDroit Tigers—Brookland Cath. Univ. Grds. 2:30 P.M.) Piedmonts—Deanweod (3 P. M. Deanwood) Asbury—Buffaloes (1 P. M. Deanwood) The Piedmonts, have lost but one game, and that to the league leaders. A group of hitters like Bland, Grant, Nickens, Reid, Harris, Wills, Perry, and Banks cannot be denied. After a slow start the Deanwood team has apparently found itself and is certain to be in the running to the end, Manager Jackson has a well balanced, youthful team under his tutelage. While not « heavy hitting group quite a number range around the 300 mark. The infielders and out- fielders will hold their own with any. ‘The Teddy Bears, a combination of many brainy veterans and a couple of youngsters froma mighty clouting team, Although defeated twice the Bears are still in the race and will be throughout the season if the veteran members can hold their present pace, The Buffaloes and Brookland Giants are at present tied for the cellar berth. Time and again both teams have carried the leaders to the limit to win. In Mills the Giants has one of the best pitchers in the circuit The Asburys have failed to set the world afire. ‘The team however, is always out to the limit, It would not be at- all surprising .to see thd Asbury’s take a number of games from teams higher in the race be- fore the season is over. 1 Mthe, tutlghtow wwtw ktw kwtk STANDING OF CLUBS W.

But his Sunday attendance is nearly twice that of Dunn’s: “I can’t pay @at these salries with this kind of attendance”, said Dunn, “I must at least have good Saturday and Sunday crowds, and I'm not get- ting them now.” Without columns and columns of free advertising the Black Sox are outdrawing: the Orioles.

St. Paul will play Howard and Vir- ‘ginia Normal in 1924. It will be re- called that Howard was scheduled for October 18th in a previous announce- ment, Howard, however, found it im- practicable to give the Tigers that en because of the fact that the school which for a number of years had met the Bisons on the second ‘Saturday in October desired to follow tradition.

Dr. Charles R. Brown of New Haven, Conn., dean of the Yale Divinity School and well-known author of books on religion, including "The Religion of a Layman," "The Master's Way," and "Social Message of the Modern Pulpit," will deliver a course of lectures on "The Art of Preaching" at the tenth annual meeting of the Ministers' Conference of Hampton Institute, which will be held from June 25 through June 29, according to Rev.

William Clifford, who in the early part of last fall was employed by Harry Crandall at the Lincoln Theater was this week dismissed.

ALL WHITE AT VETS HOSPITAL ALL WHITE AT VETS HOSPITAL (Continued from page 1) there are from their arch enemies—people who have no other interest in them than to use them as a means of getting a government check every month. The colored nurses who work under such conditions forfeit all their claim to sympathy from their race. They can have no earthly reason or excuse for remaining there. They have been able to get a living before now and they certainly ought to be able to get one after leaving. If all the colored nurses would walk out in a body as a protest, more good would be accomplished than by publishing denunciations in 10,000 newspapers. President Harding, who in the final analysis is responsible for this latest insult, has again shown the Negro the gate. He has proven to the white South that whenever their wishes and the wishes of Negroes conflict, that they may rest assured that he will uphold their side regardless of the right or wrong of it. Last winter when the fight started the Southerners vowed that they would control this hospital. Evidently they had assurances, for since then, while the colored press and many organizations have been waging a fight against their claims, they have quietly ignored all statements from the White House that might indicate to the contrary. President Harding knows that he had given his word that a colored personnel would man this hospital; and he knows that he was several times warned that his supposed orders to this effect were being ignored by his Southern appointees. But the President with all his power, was helpless to force these determined Southerners to keep their hands off. In other words, when the President found that things were not going as he ordered (or said he had ordered) them; he simply turned around and went the way things were going.

If he remains, it will only prove to the Southern whites that he is working with them in their effort to keep the Negro in abject slavery. Those people and newspapers who will try to defend Moton, will simply brand themselves as traitors equal or worse than Moton himself. If the race permits Moton to get away with his hospital stand, the white South will within the next two months have him on a good will tour through the South and the North, trying to entice the Negroes back to the cotton fields and into the peonage camps. The time has come when the race MUST purge itself of all traitors and those who are always willing to sell out the race for their personal gain. These traitors operate under the guise of race leaders and by their ability to get a little free publicity in the press, are able to perpetuate themselves in these positions and thus play the role of the wolf in sheep's clothing. The Negro newspapers must come to the rescue of the race by fearlessly exposing all such leaders, or else the prestige and influence of the Negro in America will dwindle to what it was 300 years ago. If we permit the impression to be created that we have no doctors who can qualify for this hospital work, then our hope of ever getting skilled or scientific work for our men and women is practically gone. If there is any one branch of science where we have a number of qualified men, it certainly is in medicine and surgery, and if the doctors of the race let this matter go by without their vigorous protest and denunciation, it will cast a reflection on the whole medical fraternity. For God's sake let us stop bowing like slaves and hold our heads up like men. If we fight for what we want with courage, we will come very near getting it every time. This hospital matter must be fought on principle and not on the hope of someone getting a few paltry dollars. It is time for Major Moton to move; either move out or move to fight for his race, and should the Major refuse to move voluntarily, then it is high time that the self respecting elements of the race get behind him and force him to move.

NEGRO ENCYCLOPEDIA SCOTT, Wm. Edward—Artist. Born in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1884, and trained in the public schools and in the Chicago Art Institute. By winning prizes, and saving, he was enabled to study in Paris. He had a painting "hung on the line" in an art exhibit in Paris. The picture was purchased by the Argentine Republic. He painted the Mural decorations in the Burdsall section of the city Hospital in Indianapolis. Before completing the work he used about ten Negroes among his models.

Ans.: I think our greatest needs are the elimination of ignorance among our less fortunate brothers; a concerted movement to enter the commercial world by becoming producers of commodities everyone needs; a free dissemination of sexual information to the masses by our physicians. EMANCIPATION AND THE FREED IN AMERICAN SCULPTURE A Study in Interpretation FREEMAN HENRY MORRIS MURRAY "AFRICA," STATUETTE, AT THE NATIONAL CAPITOL On the frame of the celebrated bronze doors at the eastern entrance to the Rotunda of the United States Capitol at Washington, there are four figures, each about eighteen inches high, representing the continents—"Africa" is of course one. These doors and the frame are the work of Randolph Rogers, whose figure, "Emancipation," on the Detroit Military Monument, has been discussed. Rogers' little "Africa" at the entrance to the Rotunda of the Capitol merits special attention for several reasons, one of which is, it is, I believe, the earliest work of American sculpture which shows a person of African descent or lineage. In size, this figure is rather insignificant, or perhaps we should say, diminutive; yet it is properly proportioned to the other figures on the door-frame. "Africa," as Rcgers portrays her here, is, as to features, form, and dress, a sort of idealized composite of the various races and peoples on that continent. Her head, perhaps on account of the crest-like head-dress which she wears, is reminiscent of Story's "Libyan Sibyl," but her features are heavier—more characteristically African. This is a very conscientious and praiseworthy representation, especially for the time—about 1858. As I have stated, "Africa," as Rogers portrays her, is a sort of composite, Negro predominating. She is less "made up" than her continental sisters—or should I say distant cousins? "Europe" and "America"; although Rogers did not over-do the matter of "make up" in any of these figures. He exercised unusual restraint and good taste, considering that elaboration was the fashion of the time. This tendency of the time is exemplified in Crawford's "Liberty" on the Dome, modeled four or five years earlier. She is fairly smothered under a superfity of costume, ornaments, insignia, and "properties." But that was the day of such delineation. In that day we would recognize an "America" or a "China," a "Venus" or a "Juno," by her apparel and trappings, or her lack of them. As the manager of the rural "Living-Pictures" show would say: "Now, ladies and gentlemen, we will have a representation of Daniel in the Lions' Den. You will know Daniel from the Lions, by the green cotton umbrella under his arm." But the present tendency is more and more to discard, or at least to subordinate, costume and paraphernalia—that which Kenyon Cox would call expository millinery. Our higher artists seek now to emphasize pose and expression; that is, they endeavor to set forth or to suggest ideas and to delineate character. These are especially the aims in sculpture But to return to "Miss Africa." I am saying "Miss," wittingly; for it should be noted that Rogers has shown extraordinary graciousness and delicate taste by depicting "Africa" as an adolescent maiden, dignified, yet demure, and without apparent self-consciousness. We shall the more appreciate the magnanimity of the portrayal when we remember that at the time Rogers was modeling this figure, "Africans" in America were as a race almost universally despoiled or mistreated and as usual, by the despoilers at least, despised and contemned. It would have been natural for the sculptor of these figures to have depicted "Africa" quite differently from the manner in which it was done by Rogers. A lesser man could scarcely have failed—or refused—to model his "Africa" repulsive, or "heathenish" at the least; or if an extra generous fellow, or if in a comical (?) mood, he might have given us a blank-faced, grinning "Topsy." If in doubt as to the acceptability of any of these, he safely could have followed an exaggerated "mammy" type—conspicuous breasts, preposterous hips, and other physical features and expression to correspond. Even at that, he would have been doing much better for the time than Powell did for his time (over ten years later and after the war) in his reprehensible picture of the battle of (Continued from last week) By Randolph Rogers 人图 AFRICA, figure, on door-frame at the National Capitol, by Randolph Roers By Lake Erie, which I have mentioned. We were extremely fortunate in the choice of the sculptor for these bronze doors; for this little "Africa" by Rogers, and Powell's dodger in the boat are the only portrayals of Black Folk in the art of the National Capitol. Like Crawford did when modeling "Liberty" for the Dome, Rogers made a try at inventing a head-covering for "Africa". Those who have examined "Liberty's" head-dress at close range, and thus had opportunity to observe its fantastic arrangement of feathers, fox-paws, and stars, will, I think, agree with me that Rogers did at least as well as Crawford did. ("Liberty," or rather the plaster model from which she was cast, may be seen at close range standing on the floor in the old National Museum Building at Washington. It is a fact which I have not seen mentioned, that the so-called "helmet" on her head is made from an animal skin which has two of the paws remaining on it.) [It has been explained that Crawford wanted to do the right thing but Jefferson Davis, who then who the "say," insisted on something "different"—and he got it. Jefferson Davis was not in control when Rogers modeled the seedoors; hence we find that Rogers' "America" on the door-frame has on her head the Liberty Cap, altho "Liberty" herself (or "Freedom" if you choose to use the official name), on the Dome, was not permitted to wear one. An interesting question is, If Mr. Davis had been in control when the model of Rogers' door and frame came up for approval, would he have "passed" the dainty, demure little African maid whom we have been discussing?] BIRTHDAY CLUB Every Tribunite is requested to send in his or her name, address, age, and birthday.

She is real sweet and sends her love to you. RUBY ALICE JONES (9) "All that I am or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother." "All that I am or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother." A. Lincoln A boy and a girl playing with blocks. "Africa's" head-covering is not nearly so bizarre as "Liberty's," still it is somewhat extraordinary. It is a sort of hood made of the skin from an elephant's head, with the big cars pendant, the short tusks protruding, and the trunk turned upward and backward over the head. At a little distance, it recalls the familiar Egyptian hood and crest, and it even suggests their possible origin. At any rate, Rogers' creation quite becomes "Africa's" style and helps to make her look "peart." In her left hand she holds a small round object about as large as a good-sized cocoanut, but it is probably not a cocoanut, it seems to be too spherical for that. If the object were in "Europe's" hand or "America's" I would think that it represented a globe. Maybe it does, but more probably it represents a fruit of some kind; for the position of her right hand and its fingers are such that she may be about to pinch the fruit, if it is a fruit, or to pick something from it, perhaps the stem or rind. She is too high on the door-frame to permit close examination while re, on door-frame at the National ol, by Randolph Rogers standing on the floor or on a chair. My photographer spliced the legs of his camera and stood on a stool while focusing (?), yet, as you will notice from the picture, the camera's eye was considerably below her. So I am as yet without a close view which would possibly enable me to determine what it is she holds in her left hand and what the position of her right hand indicates. But whatever is indicated, Rogers could not have put more grace and daintiness into her pose and the position of her hands and fingers, if he had been lovingly modeling his own daughter instead of his neglected, un-chaperoned Daughter of the Sun.

Mammy soothes the hurt and scare Till there's none left anywhere, With her, "Hush now, Honey, do! Mammy loves you thru and thru." Oh Mammy!

LAURA THOMAS (14) MAMMY OUR LETTER BOX Please place your age after your name in "every" letter. Dear Editor: Just a line to say hello. I wrote you a letter once before, a long time ago, but you did not like it, so you gave it to the goat I suppose. I hope you will like this one better. I want to tell you how much I enjoy reading the "Children's Page." It is a good chum to me. My teacher told us the other day that she reads the "Children's Page" and enjoys it. I was glad to be able to tell of some of the things I learned through the page. Please don't give this letter to the goat. HARRIET TOLMAN (13) Dear Editor: I saw the funeral procession of Colonel Charles Young. I am glad that I saw it. The Colored people surely looked good. I felt real proud of my race as I stood there looking at them go by. There were lots of children in line. My little sister was one of them. Her name is Alice. I will never forget last Friday. FERDNAND BALLARD (13). Something I read to Dear Editor: First I must tell you that I am not going to sign my name. I feel so proud that I just had to write to you. I have won a victory. The word "nigger" used to be a household term in our house. Everybody used it—and I did too. I noticed that you dwelt on the theme of not using that word. I began to realize how I was degrading myself and my Race by using the word that white people used when they wanted to show contempt for my Race. So I began guarding myself against using it. At times it would slip out. It was such a habit with me and with the rest of the people around me. I kept on struggling and at last I felt that I had conquered. Next I worked on my mother and I shamed her into losing the habit. Then we both worked on papa. We won him over. Because of this, and if I was not seventeen years old I'd make application for membership as a Tribunite. Although I know that I would be rejected I consider myself a most loyal and proud Dear Editor: In reading the "Children's Page" of one of the recent issues of the Tribune I find that there is a bit of interrogation as to whether my poem "Concentration" is original or not. It is original, I composed it. I find much pleasure in reading the "Children's Page" especially the Negro History. It is very interesting. I attend the Charles Sumner School and am in the 8-B Grade. THE GIRL ON THE JOB How to Succeed—How to Get Ahead—How to Make Good By JESSIE ROBERTS PUBLICITY WORK. MANY women are making a success in publicity work, and it is a growing opportunity. You do not need to know how to write yourself. What you require is the ability to get things into print, to know where to go for results, to handle the sort of material people are glad to hear and willing to pay for. One way is to begin on speculation. Get something that wants publicity, and find your medium, and, if necessary, your collaborator. When you get the publicity you take the result to the firm who wanted it and are given the promised check. You may have to divide this up, but it's a beginning. "I began in a very small way," I was told by a young woman who has just as much work as she can handle. "Just went about doing little jobs, getting something in here another bit there. I used to sit up nights thinking of original ways to exploit whatever it might be I had on hand, and I got all sorts of people to work with me on spec. Presently it began to put, work kept on coming in, I got to know a lot of useful people, and now...." "And there's no better fun on earth," concluded my young friend. "It is work full of variety, full of human nature. I have a partner now, and she and I are both busy every minute, and we love it. Also, we are laying up a nice little nest egg for the future, when we mean to be able to travel and see the world and be as idle as old people should be."

R. Moton, hand picked principal of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, has had two opportunities this spring to redeem himself with the race with which he is identified and which he is supposed to represent, but he has failed miserably in both instances. Being the "hand picked leader" of the race, Maj. Moton has had the ear of the white press and has therefore had an opportunity, such as no other colored man has had, to mould public opinion by stating frankly why the Negroes are leaving the South and by exposing the outstanding hypocracy of the Administration regarding the Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee. Maj. Moton had a long article in the New York Times on the "Migration of the Negro." The Baltimore "Manufacturers' Record" had an editorial on "Migration" in which was included a letter from Maj. Moton. In both of these letters the Major failed to make a single statement tending to clarify conditions in the South. He does, however, make a number of statements that are discreditable either to his intelligence or his veracity. Read this: "Here in the South, we can offer conditions equally as attractive as the North, and in some things very much more so." Evidently the Major is not in touch with the actual conditions in the South for as a matter of fact, more than 300,000 Negroes have left there this spring because they do not find the "conditions equally as attractive" in the South, as the Major would have Northern white people believe them to be. The Major says further: "I have felt very happy over the fact that the South itself is taking the initiative in seeing that the Negro gets here in the South the things which many are seeking in the North. This, I feel, can be done without sacrificing the South's highest standards and best traditions." Can you beat that? The principal of Tuskegee Institute, where hundreds of our young men and women attend school, says that he "feels" that the South can give the Negro the things he is seeking without "sacrificing the South's highest standards and best traditions." Oh you Uncle Tom! Is it "sacrificing standards and traditions" to give citizens of the United States freedom of speech, freedom of the ballot? an equal opportunity for educating their children? the right to own a home and be protected in that home? an equal opportunity to earn an honest living and be paid a decent wage for service rendered? What are some of the South's standards and traditions? To jim crow all Negroes, including Major Moton; to disfranchise the Negro; to get as much labor on the smallest inhuman wage possible; to take every Negro woman and girl for a concubine, if possible; to maintain the smallest semblance of an educational system for Negroes; to maintain a tenant system of farming by which they can steal all of the poor tenant's crops and give him a bare existence; to hold in abject peonage all the Negroes they can corral; and yet, the principal of Tuskegee says the South should not "sacrifice its highest standards and best traditions" to give the Negro a chance, regardless of how humiliating, how galling, how race destroying, how inhuman and un-Christian these "highest standards and best traditions" may be. As a pacifier the Major is a past master. Read this: "Without doubt, economic opportunities for the Negro are far superior in the South to those offered in the North." He says that the race problem for the world is being worked out in the South. "It is being done now with a success and satisfaction which, in spite of cross-currents, is almost a miracle when the whole situation is considered." Can you find another Negro that will say the problem is being solved in the South "with success and satisfaction?" Certainly not to the Negroes' success and satisfaction. Just as Major Moton has failed in his newspaper articles so has he failed the race in his refusal to stand for Negroes to man the Veterans Hospital. His "leadership" of the race is not recognized by the race nor will it be. In every instance where Moton has had an opportunity to serve his fitness as a leader he has fallen down. Even in the case of his wife and her expulsion from a Pullman Car, he failed to be a man. His Uncle Tom speeches to the "boys" in France and his persistent wobbling concerning every race question proves his unfitness for the position he occupies as head of a large race institution; and as for race leadership—bah!
