Republican Party Fopelessly Divided In Virginia
COLORED VOTERS OF
CHICAGO Strong FOR
GEN. leonard WOOD
(By Associated Negro Press.)

Chicago, March 24-"Wood for
President is a slogan that is grow
ing fast in popularity among the Col
ored voters in this city and state.
Many Colored men are declaring for
the general and there are indications
which point to a general desertion of
the Lowdens at the first favorable
moment. No one seems to be able
to assign a reason for the apathy cf
Illinois Colored men toward the Low
den candidacy 1t is simply in the
air In the words of a prominent
Colored business man, who does not
care to have his name mentioned be-
cause of his business relations. "We
just like General Woods stand on the
question of manhood rights. He de-
clares himself for the man who is an
American in times of peace and in
times of war. That's good enough for
me. l don't ask man to stand for
my obtaining my rights because l am
a black man, but because l am an
American. Yes, l am for Wood for
President and I am praying that he
gets the nomination. l want to have
the joy of voting for him"

REPUBLICAN PARTY IS
HOPELESSLY DIVIDED
DOWN IN old virginia
CBy Associated Negro Press)

Richmond. Va. March 24.-Alleged
"steam roller" tactics is believed to
have hopelessly split the republican
party in this neck OF the political
woods. The whites have declared war
on the blacks and practically read
them out Of their branch of the re-
publican organization. and the blacks
have retaliated by electing a set of
delegates to the national convention
in Chicago next June. If the plans
Of the Negroes are carried out TO the
length OF their declarations they will
elect a full state delegation at a con-
vention to be held in the city of
Roanoke. where the state convention
viii be held the first part OF next
month. A considerable number of
white republicans have lined up
with the Colored men and have open
ly declared their intention to join
hands with them at the state conven-
tion. The outcome is being watched
with lively interest by both white
and Negroes throughout the state.

ATTORNEY v. H. Lewis
NOMINEE OF The RACE
FOR PROMINENT PLACE
(By Associated Negro Press)


Washington, D. c., Mar 24-Hon.
William H. Lewis, an assistant attor-
ney general during the Taft admins
tration, is to be the nominee of Race
men for place on the Railroad La
Dor Board soon to be organized by
the government w. L. Houston, at
torney for the Railroad Mems Benevo-
lent and Industrial Association, ap-
peared here before the commission
empowered in the new railroad law,
arranging the wages and working con-
ditions of the railroad members, and
presented a petition that the rules be
modified to permit their organization
to nominate a man on the wage and
labor board to represent our group
President Robert L. Mays of the
Railroad Mems Benevolent and Indus
trial Association, our largest organi-
cation of railroad men, declares that
the many inequalities in the condi-
tions Of employment, particularly in
the classes of transportation and me-
chanical employees, and the hard posi-
tion of colored locomotive firemen,
demands that the race men should
have personal representation on the
board of such great Importance. This
is particularly true owing to the fact
that the white labor groups which will
be represented by men Of their selec-
tion have secured from the old rail-
road administration, are seeking to
secure from the private managements
or the carrier corporations contracts
of such a nature that the men and
women of our group would be pre-
vented from securing new employ
ment in the skilled crafts of railway
service and would be relegated to po-
sitions of common laborers. Further
more, the many cases holding over
from the old railway administration,
involving financial interests of our
people extending into many hundreds
of thousands of dollars, demand that
we make every effort to secure the
appointment of race representative
on this all-important board The r.
r. NJ. B. l. A. is fighting to put Attor-
ney w. H. Lewis of Boston on the
board Of representatives of our group.

Birmingham Ala, Mar. 24.-The
"Inter-racial Friendliness Program
to be executed at the Alabama School
Teachers Association and to be par
ticipated in by some of the sanest
and wisest 1f both races in this and
other states, and the educational, in
dustrial and vocational exhibit

lures of the annual session of the col
ored teachers meeting to meet in Bir-
mingham, March 81 to April 3.
The program projected is to deal
with the most practical phases of edu-
cation. The divisional meetings are
not only to discuss the features that
are feasible, but demonstrations for
handiwork, domestic science and rec
reation are to be made under direc-
ton of some of the states most tai
ented in that particular phase of edu-
cation.
The exhibit planned is to represent
the best efforts in Negro education in
this state. Principal R. R. Motion, of

Norfolk. Va, March 24.-The Tide
water cities, Norfolk, Portsmouth,
Berkeley, Newport News, is the ap-
propriate name by which the ports
which border on the Chesapeake Bay
are known. Their fame is already es-
tablished in the East and so progress
sive and enterprising are the citizens
OF our group i'm this section that ere
long the entire country is certain to
be familiar with their worthwhile
achievements.
A representative of the Associated
Negro Press paid a brief and hurried
visit TO Tidewater this week and
while time did not permit anything
like a thorough inspection. there were
so many things of interest to be seen
that we are giving our readers a
brief survey of them.
Norfolk is the largest of these
coastal cities. boasting a population
of 100000. of whom probably $1,000
are members of the Race. 1t is an
exceedingly busy city its real impor-
tance as a port and commercial CEN
ter having been emphasized by the
war. when its wonderful harbor be-
came one OF the principal embarka-
ton and shipping points of the Unit
ed States. while its shores were dot
ted with great manufactures, whole
sale houses, naval bases and the like.
The result was the growth of the
population from $1,000 in 1911 to it's
present size.
Norfolk has not slackened pace be-
cause Of the close of the war, and H.
Dor which commanded high wages
then, continues to earn good pay with
jobs awaiting everyone who comes
prepared to work Our group is q
large factor in the labor situation
and they have not failed to get their
share in the great bulk OF money in
circulation. One of the concrete evil
dences of this fact is the unusual de-
velopment of banking and similar in
stitutions. The second strongest bank
in the country, The Brown Savings
bank, with a capital and surplus of
100000. is located here. while set
ting a pace which bids fair to over
haul it is the Tidewater Trust and
Savings Co, a new institution which
has increased its resources $780,
in the past six months. The Tide
water is housed in a beautiful new

TWO DISTINCT TYPES
OF COLORED PEOPLE
SAYS noted WRITER
(By Associated Negro Pres)

Southern Pines. N. c.. Mar. "a
Around Southern Pines and Aberdeen
there are two classes of Negroes. The
one is marked by thrift and industry
the other is the come day-go-day
type common to all communities. II.
A. Page, Jr., bought a large tract of
land adjoining Southern Pines and he
began to put it on the market to sell
in a purely commercial manner, just
as other folks do with similar propo-
sitions. He had not gone far before
he found himself introducing a farm
plan on a big scale, with roads and
the accessories that make farms. and
then came an idea OF making 4 section
of home sites adjoining the town of
Southern Pines for colored folks. This
matter rather evolved itself. but Mr.,
Page finally reached the point where
he set aside SO acres, had roads cut
through it. the roads clayed, just as
we make the improved roads in the
sandhills, lots of various sizes from
the smaller building site to the bigger
one of an acre or more were plotted
by the engineer, and when all was
done the tract was ready for sale
The colored folks had watched the
progress of the plan, and many Of
them discussed with Frank Buchan
who is the selling agent for the prop
erty, the prospect of buying locations
But he told them to wait until the en-
gineer had finished the location OF the
Improvements and the roads were
built and the stakes set. and every
thing ready, and then he could talk
definitely. The demands were so nu-
merous that it was seen that the sale
was destined to be quick one, so at
first it was proposed to put a price
tag on every lot and parcel Of land.
and let the first man take II who
would accept it at the price fixed
This plan appeared to be acceptable.
but later the Peoples Realty Com.
pany of Aberdeen proposed to Mr..
Page that they be allowed to sell the
property at auction. to which he
agreed and the Burton Brothers were
engaged. Many went over to the sale
because of !he novelty OF It and it
was interesting, especially to the folks
from the North.
1t may not be possible for every
town to plan a Negro addition on the
same scale as this one at Southern
Pines, Lut it is possible for every town
to lend hand in making the Negro
home section of the community the
most cheerful spot that it can be
made for the colored population, and
l doubt if anything that can be done
will better pay in the long run at that.

cause of the st. Louis riots, of muir
der in the first degree and sentenced
to the penitentiary at Chester, H., for
the rest of his natural life. DR.. Bundy
was convicted March, 1919, and has

The great legal victory which re-

suit of the brilliant, unceasing battle
waged by his counsel, Houston & Cal
toway, of Kansas City These two
able barristers have emerged success
fully and have won a great legal bat
tie for the Race. This case has had
practically the entire time of Mr. w.

Every COW was named and worked my head off trying to control and manage the business. but every year I ran cattle on open range the poorer I got. My gentle cows drifted badly. Just as soon as a COW gets off her range and begins to wander she makes up her mind to see how far she can 90. I have watched the range cattle bus:- ness for q good many years and it Is mighty few COW men that I have found making money on the open range.
