HAS BUSY day
JUSTICE BAKER HEARS
many CASES.
TWO CASES BOUND over
Negro Who Fired On Officers
win Be Investigated by
Grand Jury.

Esq. Baker was quite busy
with justice court last Satur-
day. Among the cases up for
trial were those of a number
of negroes of the Jakajones
community who recently en-
gagged in a free-for-all fight, but
most of these entered pleas of
guilty and each was assessed
fines corresponding with their
degree of guilt.
The court also had for trial
the negroes above Ozan charged
with interfering with a writ of
custer executed against Renta
Walker, and upon trial of the
cases, Rev. C. r. Grim and Bet
tie johnson were each fined
$1,000 and costs and Berta
Walker was fined $25.00 and
costs.
Renta Walker and Pierce
johnson, the former charged
with resisting custer and the
latter with interfering with ex-
ecution of the writ and with
assault with intent to kill an
officer when his arrest was
made at his home, both waived
examination and were bound
over to, await grand jury ac-
ton. Walker made bond in
the sum of $500, but Johnson,
whose bond was fixed at 81 200,
failed to furnish bond and was
remanded to jail.
Pierce Johnson is the negro
who fired on the officers last
week when they attempted to
serve a warrant on him for in
terfering with the writ of ous-
ter issued against Renta Wal
ker.

SAYS FRANCE
 HELPED POLES
 DEFEAT 'REDS'

POSEN, Poland, Oct. 8. - An off cial of the French Military Commis- sion in Poland has told the Associat. ed Press correspondent that the Pol ish army would have been conquered by the Bolshevik armies of Russia if the French had not supported the Poles This notwithstanding the fact that the Poles beat back the Russian drive on Warsaw.
 The French official based his state ment upon his belief that the Rus sian army was superior to the Polish army as an effective fighting machine with the exception of the German trained troops of Posen. The French man said he believed the Russian or. ganization has been, and still is, un- der estimated and because of this tendency to belittle the Russian ar mics the menace to Poland's exis- tence, if not to all western Europe. remains imminent and real
 Russ Poorly Equipped
 The official said some Russian units were poorly equipped but it was not true the army was "a barefoot rab- ble." He was convinced the majority of the Russian divisions were well organized units of good fighting men, much better officered than the Poles. The Poles had, 25,000 officers but only 5000 of them ever wens 70 the front .llt there, he said. There was evidences that certain Polish companies had fought without officers, he asserted, and that during the retreat these were without commanders.
 An American artillery officer who had spent year in Russia and had been under fire at the Polish front told the correspondent he had seen the Poles plant their artillery in the most ridiculous places, on the expos ed sides of hills and right in the open, when they could have readily conceal ed it and made it effective"
 Aviators Saw "Battlesp
 A neutral aviator who had flown
  battles were said to be in progress said what he saw of the fighting was two armies keeping about three hours apart, the Poles retreating when the Russians advanced, and the Russians running when the Poles turned and advanced" He saii this schedule sometimes got disarranged and there was collision between opposing> detachments," but he had not witnessed any of these clashes.
 A number of Polish officers with whom the correspondent talked said they were forced to admit the French saved the day but the weakness of their officers was explained by the fact that in former years Poles had not been permitted to hold commits sions in the army, either in Russian, German or Austrian Poland. and that the time had been too short to devel- op a staff of highly trained officers.

TUSKEGEE GREAT
help TO FARMERS
in SOUTHLAND

(6y The Associated Negro Press.)
Tuskegee Institute, Ala, Dec. a.
One of the most striking indications
of the Negro farmers ability to be-
come susceptible to wholesome influ-
ence for safe farming and rural bet
terment was the splendid fair, under
the auspices of the Macon County
Colored Fair association, held at Tus-
kegee Institute, November 11-12.
1t was the concensus of opinion Of
hundreds of people attending the
Fair that the attractive appearance
of the exhibits confirmed the gospel
of combining common sense with
farming methods which would in
every case give best results ulti-
mately.
The remarkable products exempli-
fled that the Negro farmers Of Macon
county are learning to put brains in
the soil thereby helping to solve the
problems which face the farmer at
this period. The educational emphasis
Of the fair revealed that prolonged
school terms. better school houses
with efficient teachers and other
movements such as the Tuskegee An
nual Negro Farmers conference are
vital factors in helping the rural
masses of Negroes to realize the
agricultural possibilities for them.
1t was evident that there was a
growing desire for better livestock
and the growing Of ample food prod
ucts for the home. Devices, beautify.
ing the homes and saving steps of
the women in the. homes created
much comment.
Tuskegee's influence in helping the
Negro to express himself through
songs was again accentuated William
/ Dawson, student Of Tuskegee In.
stitute, who has native ability as a
musician, was given first prize for
his work, which was among the
musical exhibits.
This fair will be an annual event
Such features helping the rural and
urban masses of Negroes to help
themselves, families and communi
ties, will be the outstanding signs
of the Negro's progress in the agri
cultural districts of this section.

SOUTHERN Whites
NEGRO'S BEST FRIEND
SAYS ". H. TAFT
(By The Associated Negro Press)

(6y The associated negro PreSs)
Brooklyn, N Y, Dec. 2.-Former
President William Howard Taft spoke
on the race problem at the Academy
of Music under the auspices of the
Hampton Association Of Brooklyn. In
denunciation of race prejudice, Mr..
Taft said that there is danger Of a
revival of prejudice against the Jew
in the United States.
Some antedeluvian people even
now are trying to revive the persecu-
tion Of the Jew in this country" he
declared, "and nothing more un-
American could be imagined"
Referring to the Negro problem, the
ex-president said the solution lies in
education and economic development
in both of which, as we'll as in religi-
Gus development, he quoted figures to
show the great movement Of the
Negro since 1866.
"The south and agriculture are the
hope of the Negro" he said. 1.-The
south is his natural habitat, and as
these figures show, he is actually
chiefly working in agriculture. The
best friend the Negro can have is the
southern white mani mean the edu-
Gated, good people of the south. The
recent migration of Negro labor from
the south to the north. while it had
certain deplorable consequences, also
was very useful, for it showed the
south that it needed the Negro, and
that he had a remedy for persecution" !"
Mr.. Taft said it is mistake for the
Negro to do anything to antagonize
the best southern whites. He paid a
glowing tribute to the late Booker T.
Washington.

WILLIAM PICKENS
DELIVERED LECTURE
in PHOENIX NOV. 3(

terest of the National Association For

States. His mission is to show the
colored people the great power of or.
ganization and concerted effort The
speaker drove home his arguments
with force and eloquence and was re-
peatedly interrupted with applause.
DR.. Pickens exploded the fallAcy OF
race inferiority" so often applied to
the black race, by proving that every
single thing to which the Negro is
said to be incapable of attainment, is
something he is not permitted to do
lie stated that the rule in this coun
try was that no Negro be allowed to
try to fill the places said to be beyond
his sphere and the fact that none had
ever held these positions was the
only proof that had ever been pro
duced to show the Negro's incapacity
or inferiority. Permit man to try
to do a thing before branding him as
incapable" said the speaker.
Preceding the introduction of DR.
Pickens, Mrs. Clarence Lindsey favor
ed the audience with an instrumental
solo and Mrs. Frank Shirley brought
