people: the faith and pledge of America.

MILLION DOLLAR BANK
FOR cOLORED NEW WORKERS
(By Associated Negro Press)

(By Associated Negro Press)
New York, Nov 26.-Plans for the
establishment of bank for Negroes
in New York were discussed at a
meeting of business men of the race
in Lafayette hall, Harlem
Augusta Duncan, the originator of
the idea, presided and preliminary
funds to the amount of $4,000 were
subscribed.
The bank as proposed, is to be capi-
talized for $1,000 900 and to be stu
ated in Harlem. A committee of rs
headed by Junius M. Green, was
chosen to proceed with the campaign
for subscribers. 1t was also decided
to form business corporation to
stimulate trade by Negroes between
the United States and the West In
dies and South America. Those in
charge Of the two projects stated that
they are acting independently of any
existing Negro organization.

Anderson occurred when three in

shot four times into a group Of three
Negroes standing on the corner.
The Negroes were standing talk

fast, and as the car drew even with
them, the men, or at least one man
III the car, shot four times into the
group. one bullet striking the cuff of
the trousers leg Of one of the Ne
groes.
This action might have been ac-
companied by serious consequences
in view of the fact that recent pc
riod of tension has just passed. A
remark made by a Negro preacher, in
Anderson led to considerable feeling
between the races, and it was on the
advice of a committee of our own
people that he resigned as pastor Of
the church here and left for other
parts. This resignation and leaving
the city alleviated the trouble to
great extent and all danger of trouble
between the races seemed averted.

Is months in France, talked to large
audience in Trinity auditorium on
"The Negro in the War" DR.. Hope
is Brown graduate, class of 1894,
and William w. Moss, a classmate,
introduced him
In his address, Mr.. Hope declared
that "The Colored people in America
will never again be the same as they
were before the war, nor will the
other people. in America look upon
them as they did before the war. The
Negroes who saw service overseas
have seen country where the race
question has been settled permanent
ly country where all men irrespec-
tive Of race or color, are equal"
After paying a tribute to the work
and worth of the Negro soldiers in
the combat units, President Hope said
of those among the pioneers: Here
were men who never experienced
battle thrill during the Is or 1S
months they were in France. Day in
and day out they worked, spurred on
simply by the thought that they were
doing their bit"
He advised the Colored people of
the north to keep the fire of patriot
ism burning, and his fellow Colored
citizens to make the best possible use
of what they learned during the world
war.

coLoRED MAN AvENeEs WRONG
DONE IA YEAR OLD DAUGHTER
(By Associated Negro Press)

Madison Wis, Nov 26 = Jack
Green, 5S-year-old Lancaster man, has
avenged the blight upon his 14-year-
old daughters honor. Now he is ready
to pay the penalty if his plea for len.
iency fails.
Green was sentenced by Circuit
Judge George Clementson in Lancas-
ter for the murder of George Duncan,
38 years old Lancaster automobile
man, whose body was found in his
car on the lonely road leading to the
Green farm home two miles from Ian
caster Duncan had been shot through
the back Green was arraigned before
Justice C. w. Burrows and bound over
to the circuit court. He retained w.
]. Brown as his attorney.
Green, arrested while at work in
the fields, confessed the shooting, ac-
cording to Sheriff Frank He'll. Green
offered no resistance when taken into
custody, the sheriff said
Green is the father of nine children.
There has been no attempt at vio-
lence by the citizens of Lancaster. 1t
is said the sympathy Of the city is
with the prisoner Duncan leaves a
widow and an eight-year-old daughter.
The name of Duncan has been
linked with that of 14-year-old Dena
Green by the gossips of the little
Grant county city. When the the
murder was discovered Sheriff He'll
went straight to the Green home to
begin his investigation.
According to the story told by May
Green, 19 years old, and sister of
Dena, the latter had been out riding
with Duncan on previous occasions,
Monday night, May told the sheriff
Dena had date with the automobile
man. They met in the highway sew
eral hundred yards from the Green
home early in the evening and re-
turned about 11:30.
Jack Green was waiting for them
when they drove up the road, May
told the seriff After exchanging
words with Duncan, the father fired
from the rear Of the car as Duncan
drove away, according to the girl.
From the position of the car Duncan
is believed to have gone on until the
second bullet hit him.
