WOMAN SAVED FROM
ELECTRIC Chair BY
ACTION OF N. N.A.A.C.P.
Especial to the Tribune.) }

New York, June 23-The National
Association for the Advancement of
Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New
York, today announced that largely
through the efforts of the New York
branch, Mrs. Hattie Dixon. a colored
woman had been saved from death in
the electric chair and her sentence
commuted to life imprisonment.
The New York branch, at the re-
quest of Mrs. Dixon's attorneys, be-
came active in May, the woman's
death having been set for June 16 A
petition was obtained representing 49,
600 signers among New York States
citizens, and a delegation was sent to
call upon Governor Miller in Albany.
The delegation was composed Of Cliff
ton G. A. French, Rev Cullen, Rev.
Daniel, Rev. Lawton and John E. Nail.
Mrs. Dixon had been convicted of a
murder in November 1917, and on ap-
peals stated their belief that the YER
diet was the result of a misunder-
standing.
The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People an
nounces that the New York branch
received a communication from Mrs
Dixon's attorneys saying that had the
branch not interviewed when it did,
the woman would probably not have
been saved from the electric chair
This is especially fortunate since it
has been a tradition for years in
New York State that no women must
suffer the death penalty.

professions agreed to send cable mes
sages to the British parliament. to the
United States congress and to the par

the Anglo-Japanese alliance since its
conception, it has been fateful to the
peace of China and if renewed will

Big CELEBRATION
AT EAST LAKE PARK
BY COLORED PEOPLE

Emancipation Day was fittingly OBJ
served by the. Colored people of
Phoenix and the Salt River Valley on
Monday JUMP 20, at East Lake Park.
Promptly at IL o'clock the excitement
began and from that time on there
was something doing every minute.
The big free barbecue, of course. was
the center of attraction and until all
had received their fill, this part OF
the celebration was by far the most
important
After the feast came the ball game
between the Western Giants and the
10th Calvary team from Fort Huachu-
ca. The boys played brilliant game
and the spectators were kept on their
toes from the first to last inning.
Two home runs were credited, one to
the Giants and the other to the
Soldier team. The giants first pitch
er was knocked out of the box by
the soldiers in the first two innings
and they gained such a lead on the
home boys that it was a struggle to
even the score, to say nothing about
trying to win. The score was 6 to Q
in favor of the Soldiers up to the
fourth inning when the Giants ex-
perienced streak of luck and even
ed the score. Then the Soldiers took
another squirt, ran ahead of the
locals and some how managed al.
ways to keep our boys just score
or two behind them until the very
last inning. The final score was II
to 10 in favor of the Soldiers. All
agree that it was good game, in
spite of the large score, which in
itself tells nothing.
Private groups of picnickers were
scattered all over the park and the
play grounds were thronged with
children. The National Association
under whose auspices the celebration
was given, had all kinds of refresh
ments to sell and were kept busy
waiting on the thirsty crowd that had
just come out of the ball park. All
day there was something doing;
either in the form of carnival amuse-
ments or other sports. At night a
boxing contest was held and all were
given run for their money. A plat
form was built and dancing engaged
the attention of many throughout the
evening.
Owing to the fact that the principal
speaker of the day, Mr.. George B.
Cruikshank of Tucson, editor of the
Tucson Spokesman, was absent, the
speaking was dispensed with and other
things instituted. The local men who
were to appear on the platform with
the Hon. Mr. Cruickshank were pre-
sent and ready to deliver, but the
management thought best to call off
this part of the program, more as a
mark of respect to Mr. Cruickshank
than for any other reason. Many were
disappointed in not being permitted
to hear Emancipation addresses, but
such is life in Arizona-Phoenix in
particular.
Altogether, the Emancipation cele-
tTation at the park Monday was a
grand affair and much credit is due
the management for the orderly man.
ner in which everything was carried
out. Walter A. McKenney, president
of the local branch, N. A. A. C. p, was
manager of the day and to him and
his assistants we say, Nil desperan-
dunn. Elk post facto.
