WANT TO DEGRADE
OUR CAPITOL CITY

Washington, d. c., Nov. 81
The spectacle of the capital of the
United States being provided with
Jim Grow" cars will be a reality
if the bill drafted by w. j. Neale,
chairman of the Legislative Com
mittee of the District of Columbia,
and which has been presented to
the members of the Central Cit.
zens' Association becomes law.
The fifty members who were
present in the directors room of
the North Capital Savings Bank
voiced hearty approval of the pro-
posed measure. 1t will be sub
mitted to the Federation of Cit.
zens' Associations at the next
meeting, the first Saturday in De-
cember.
The bill, which provides sepa-
rate compartments for, 'r distinct
lines of demarcation between, the
Negro and white races was pat
ierned after similar bills which
have been adopted in Maryland
and Virginia.
1t is reported that Neale and his
associates are also considering the
advisability of having bill intro
duced providing for separate
streets on which whites and blacks
shall walk in the capitol city.

To the Presidents and Officers
of1Aocal Negro Business Leagues
Now that the political campaign
issover and we are free to give our
attention to matters that more di.
rectly concern our welfare as indi-
,viduals and as communities, l
wantsto urge upon each Local Ne
gro Business League throughout
the United States to cut out a
sdetinate piece of work that the
League may accomplish during
the coming winter.
$500 ffssts.@Tn order TO accomplish
some definite thing, each League
should have a regular time for
meeting.
2nd.-A regular program should
be mapped out in advance of each
meeting.
3rd.-Each League should have
special attractive place to meet
in.
4th.-Each League should con-
slider carefully what the organiza-
tion can do to promote the wei.
fare of the community in business
and commercial directions.
There never has been such CON-
mercial prosperity existing through
ont the country as is true to-day,
and our people should share in
this prosperity.
1t is largely through the help
and leadership of each Local
Negro Business League that they
will be able to do SO.
If your League has not had a
meeting for sometime see that one
is called at once and new life is
pnt into the organization.
Persons desiring to organize
new Local Negro Business
Leagues may secure information
by writing to Mr.. Emmett j. Scott
Corresponding Secretary, Tuske-
gee Institute, Alabama.

GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES

London, Dec. Mrs. Anna
Gross, an American Negress, to
night shot and killed Miss Jessie
Mcintyre, young English actress.
Mrs. Gross was separated from her
husband, Pake Gross, vaudeville
performer, whom she attempted
to kill. jealousy is said to have
been the cause of the shooting.
Mrs. Gross was arrested.
The Norfolk, Va, City Council
has passed law requiring all
washerwomen to be registered.
The object of the law is to pro-
tect white families from tubercu-
lar contagiou. When tuberculosis
is discovered in a house no one in
that house is allowed to take in
washing. The law works terrible
hardship on those who depend on
washing for livelihood.
Kansas City, Mo-1n 1903 ia
cova May, former slave, made a
will leaving 81, 800 to Mrs. Eliza
G. Burnett, white woman. living
here. After the Negress died in
1910 another will, made short
time before death, was found, in
which the money was left to her
children. Mrs. Burnett has
brought suit to obtain the money,
asserting undue influence was
used in the second and last will.
