Dick" Stosh, of Cleveland, was seer

Dick" Stosh, of Cleveland, was seen
in action for the first time before Har-
lem fighting fans Monday night at the
Olympic club and proved to be fast
and clever boxer. He had as an oppon-
ent Young Dyson of Providence and
had the better of the argument all the
way Stosh's cleverness was mis- main
asset, as his stiff left had jab ana
right hand uppercut more than offset
his opponents rushes. If he keeps
fighting the way he did last night it
is predicted that he will make some
trouble for the boys at his weight.

GEMS FROM MAJOR MOTIONS
ADDRESS At NORFOLK. VA.

Robert r. Motion, president or
the Negro Organization society
and commandant of cadets at
Hampton institute. said:
Our. people are cooperating
rs never before in helping to-
ward better schools. better
health. better homes. better
farms wish to emphasize the
need of better homes for colored
people. Many successful Ne
groes. especially in the country
districts, have neglected the most
essential element in their de-
velopment Many of them have
good farms and good horses. but
live in miserable shacks. This
condition must be changed If we
are to get the highest benefits
of this civilization.
II want to thank our white
friends for the cordial support
and backing which they have
given this movement The state
board of education, through its
efficient superintendent, Mr.. r.
C. Stearnes, and the state board
Of health. through DR.. Ennion G.
Williams, DR.. Roy K. Flanagan
and others, have given their cor
dial cooperation. Mrs. B. B.
Munford said last year that she
thought the best way for the
white people to help the colored
people in Virginia was for the
white people to believe in color
ed people. The best way for the
colored people to help the white
people is for the colored people
to believe in the other race. We
are believing in each other.
"One of the greatest achieve
ments Of the Negro Organization
society is the spirit of co-opera-
tion which it has stimulated be-
tween black man and white man
and which we can and must
maintain. This we can do by
faithful and efficient service
wherever that service may be.
whether in the kitchen. on the
farm, in the shop, in the school
room or in the pulpit
I'VE can be assured that eff
cient and faithful service will
be rewarded in the fullest meas
ure. To my mind this is the
surest way to the solution of the
race problem and wholesome
and happy adjustment of the
great human problem that faces
the black man and the white
man here in Virginia, as well as
throughout our country and the
world"

racial antipathy a live issue or is IL
not?" Mr.. Willard then quotes from
DR.. Jacques Loeb. the famous scientist
and professor in Columbia university.
who, writing in the New Review on
the European conflict, has this to say:
The mischief lies in the fact that
the inhabitants of each country now
seem to be convinced of their racial
superiority over the inhabitants of al.
other countries. The danger lying in
the fetish. of racial andpathy and
racial superiority is assuming threaten
ing dimensions in this country.
1T is matter of no small concern
that the labor unions refuse to work
side by side with Asiatics or Negroes.
giving as an excuse racial antpathy'
whereas the principle of brotherhood
would demand that they should work
with them. influence them, educate
them if necessary. and in this process
learn to respect them"
Mr.. Willard says other causes have
many champions. the cause of those
who suffer from race prejudice but one

pledged to an unqualified program or

all men. regardless of race or creed
I'VE have attacked the Negro problem
first, because that is the most press
ing in the United States" he said
Like other societies, we are strug-
Cling hard to weather these times OF
tinanciaH depression. During the past
month colored people have contributed
generously of their slender means.
This is an encouragement to their
friends to endeavor to keep alive the
