Of Trust For 81, 100000
(By Associated Negro PressJ

MUSKOGEE, Okla, March II = A
millionaire for three hours, Sarah
Rector, of Mdskoge, the richest Negro
girl in the United States, signed a
deed of trust, turning her $1,500, 900
estate over to the care of her guard
ians. The girl came into the money
when she reached the age of eighteen.
''The spirits might get it," she de-
clared as she voluntarily executed the
deed of trust. The girls mother,
Rose Rector, has filed a petition, de-
claring the heiress incompetent of
handling her own affairs.
The girl is entitled to the money
through oil leases in the name of her
father and herself, following discov-
cry of oil on a stretch of otherwise
worthless land near Muskogee, al
lotted to her from Indian lands. She
is part Indian.

RACE PREJUDICE DEFEATS
MILITARY TRAINING

The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, 20
Fifth avenue, New York, today pub
lished statement asserting that the
opposition in the South to universal
military training was due to prejudice
against the colored soldier.
"The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People does
not concern itself with universal
military training as such," says the
statement, "but in behalf of the
colored people of the United States
objection must be made to the propa-
ganda against colored soldiers by
which it was hoped to discredit the
measure"
"Brigadier General Sherburne and
Newton D. Baker, secretary of war,
have testified to the valor of Negro
troops in France. Under the cir
cumstances, the propaganda against
colored soldiers must be characterized
as for the most part deliberate and
intentional Justification"

Union of Methodist
Churches Adocated
by Bishop
(By Associated Negro Presgl


CINCINNATI, Ohio, March IL
Bishop Joseph c. Hartzell spoke on
"The Status of Unification of Method
ism" at a meeting of the Methodist
Ministers association, recently, at
the Methodist Book Concern. His
subject dealt with the question of
the union of the Methodist church
North and South and the question
which is involved-the status of the
Negro
The plan for union emphasizes the
representation of the minority, which
is the Methodist church South, but
does not adequately provide for
Negro representation which also is a
minority proposition.
DR.. McKibbin agreed with Bishop
Hartzell, saying that he would 60 to
Atlantic City to meet delegation of
North and South ministers of the
Presbyterian church to discuss the
matter.

WOMEN PERMITTED

(By Associated Negro Press)
LA GRANGE, KY, March 17-Al-
though Kentucky women will not get
full suffrage this year, but will vote
in the presidential election, Negro
women already have entered politics.
This is the first time in the history
of the South when Negro women have
taken any apparent interest in poll
tics, and certainly the first when a
woman member of that race has par
ticipated as a fully accredited dele
gate at a convention.
When the seventh congressional
district republican delegates met
here preparatory to the state con-
vention among them was Annie Simms
Banks, of Winchester, KY, one of the
delegation from Clark county, who
not only took part in the proceedings,
but was appointed a member of the
rules committee, and as such helped
prepare the report submitted to the
state convention. She was referred
to whenever it became necessary as
''the lady from Clark, and was ac-
corded as much courtesy as any other
delegate.

Labor Bigger Problem
Than the Black Man
(By Associated Negro Press

AD9 A5SOCldleu 4NSSTO 1IeSSJ
NASHVILLE, Tenn, March IL
There has been very extensive com
ment on the recent editorial published
in The Chicago Tribune in which
there is the claim that the NEGRO
controls the south" There is much
difference of opinion concerning the
reasoning of The Tribune.
">"~4hing especially ill.natured was
intended in the article probable" OBJ
serves the well known Nashville
Banner, daily, but it abounds in pre-
vented facts, and tortured logic.
Neither premise or deduction are
correct"
1T has been made an argument
against women suffrage in the South
that 1t would make voters of Negro
women, but the real objection to it
has come purely of that conservatism
that is very marked Southern char
acteristic, especially in regard to
women and the home"
The Tribune article is only another
exhibition of misconception concern
ing the South.
In saying that the Negro dominates
the South the Tribune possibly meant
that the fear of Negro domination has
held the South solidly democratic in
its politics. That view is more near
ly warranted than anything else that
it says in the article quoted, but even
thar is not wholly true and the rest
is far from the mark. Prohibition
began in Main and it prevailed exten-
siyely in the country west of the
Mississippi river as it did in the
South, and for very similar reasons.
The Negro is not so much a prob
lem in the South as labor generally
is in the North and the South is
better able to pass and maintain pro-
hibition because it has a smaller for
eign population than the North has
