FRED DOUGLASS
HOME MADE A
HALL OF FAME

Buffalo, n. Y, Sept. 29.-Frederick
Douglass home in Anacostia, ID. O.,
will be the great hall of fame for col
ored Americans, according to Mrs
Mary b. Talbert, president of the Ma
tional Federation of Colored Womens
Clubs, which has taken charge of the
former home of the great Marylander.
According to Mrs. Talbert, the dedica-
ton of the home will take place fol-
lowing the bi-annual meeting of the
Federation in Richmond next year, at
which time President Harding and 9TH
er prominent men and women will be
present Contracts have been let for
the complete renovation of the place,
which will be made to look as 1t did
when Frederick Douglass actually
lived there.
Pictures of various men and women
will be placed in the hall of fame mt
the home by vote of the National Fed
eration when in session. Mrs. Talbert
also appeals for relics in the form of
battle flags, slave bills of sale or any
thing else contributive toward the his
tory of Negroes in America.

Young Negro Club
Boys Put Money
i'm the Bank

As evidence of earnest work on their
projects, fifteen Negro boys of Ma
rengo county, Ala, members of a spe-
cial pig and corn corn, now have to-
tai bank balance of $64S, or an aver
age of S43.20 for each boy. The least
amount i'm the bank to the credit OF
any one boy is 81 and the largest is
$50.
Through the efforts of the State
Negro Club agent, representing the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture and the State Agricultural Col
Iege, in cooperation with Tuskegee
Institute. the club was formed in 1911,
on the plantation formerly owned by
Gov. Thomas Seay. 1t has grown TO
a membership of fifteen boys, varying
in age from IL to IS years.
When these boys joined the club
they were made to realize that if they
expected to succeed il would be neces-
sary for them to be alert, to study
very carefully all instructive litera-
ture sent to them and all given them
in person by their club leaders, and
then follow faithfully the lessons of
thrift and economy taught them
throughout their club career. Their
bank accounts prove the practical
worth of the clubs to these boys, who
have incidentally learned to produce
more corn on an acre, to grow a bet
ter pig at n greater profit, and, final
ly, to be better citizens.

Chicago Colored
Girl Made Aviatrix
by French

Miss Bessie Coleman, n cOlored girl
of Chicago, 24 years old, who has been
studying aviation in France for the
past ten months, arrived in New York
City Sunday, Sept. 25th, on the Amer
lean liner, Manchuria. She brought
with her credentials from the French
certifying that she had qualified as
an aviatriX.
Miss Coleman, who is having a spe-
cial Neiuport scout plane built for her
in France, said upon her arrival here
that she intended to make flights in
this country as an inspiration for peo-
pie of the colored race to take up
aviation.
She said that few colored people
had taken an interest in aviation and
cited the 4OO,O0O,OOO population of In
dia as an example. Out of this very
large Hindu population, she said, thar
only one has piloted Il plane, and that
one was Il man.

The Arkansas Cases

james Weldon Johnson, secretary
of the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, 20
Fifth avenue today gave out the fol-
lowing statement concerning the
status of the Arkansas cases.
The fight still goes on in the Ar
kansas cases. The six men condemned
to be executed early in September are
still alive.
An appeal to the governor for re-
prieve was unsuccessful. Then our
attorneys applied for writ of GER
tiorarl to act as a stay of the execu-
ton. On learning that the writ of
certiorari could not be obtained in
time to stop the execution as the
judges of the Federal Court would not
be in Washington until after the date
of execution, application was made
for writ of habeas corpus. This was

Wanted More
Wages-COnvicted
as Migrants

Greenwood, Mass.-Because they re-
fused to accept the wages offered
them by the owners of the steamboat
Choctaw, two members of the crew
are now languishing in Jail, having
been convicted by the police on the
charge of vagrancy.
Several days ago the crew, all Ne
groes. went on strike for raise in
salary. They asked for $3 a day. The
steamboat officials offered them 81
and board.
Unable to reach an agreement the
strikers left the boat, leaving word
they could be found in pool room If
their terms were later complied with.
After conference between Chief of
Police Bonner and the boat officials
it was decided to teach the fresh
darkies" lesson for presuming too
much. So number of Mississippi
'i.ups'' swooped down on the pool
room and arrested every member OF
the striking crew found in the place.
After remaining in Jail three or
four hours all agreed to return to
work for the wages offered by the
company except two. SO for having
the temerity to ask for square deal
they were fined $50 each and SEN
fenced TO thirty days in Jail.

FROM $40 PER

EVERY NIGHT
This Is What Happened to
Mamie Smith In Short =.
Space of Three Years
BY VIM. L. Ready.


Some three years ago, Mamie Smith,
jazz artist, appeared at the old Regent
theater an entire week for the munifi-
cent sum of $50, or S3.33 and third
cent per night.
on last Tuesday, the said Mamie
Smith began a three-days engagement
at the newly enlarged theater of the
same name, and under the same man
agement, at the slightly increased sum
of 81 900 per night.
Mamie Smith is Il shining example
of the tide in the affairs of men
which taken at the flood lead on to
fortune" There were jazz singers
making records long before Mamie
Smith entered the field. There are
jazz singers making records today, but
there is only one Mamie Smith.
But there was something that these
singers lacked in Interpretation, call it

it, and knew she had it, and did not
fear to use it, with the result that she
is today Americas mdisputed Queen
of Jazz
But the famous jazz singer has not
been spoiled by her meteoric rise to
her present commanding position.
When the writer sought her out after
her first performance on Tuesday
evening he was welcomed into her
small dressing-room up among the
flies" of the Regent stage with the
unaffected gratiousness that might
have been expected only in the quiet
confines of the reception room of her
own home.
Contrary to reports, Miss Smith, who
in private life is Mrs. Ossey Wilson,
is not a Baltimorean but native of
ST Louis. When this claim was men
toned to the singer, she laughingly
replied that "every city in the country
had laid claim to being her birthplace"
During the interview stalwart
bronZed gentleman, wearing kahH
overalls, came up and was introduced
as Mr.. Wilson, the AIadam's husband
and business manager; he also was in
rroduced to another of the singers con-
stant companions, Jazz Baby" cum

Federal Employees
Plan Fight on
Discrimination

Washington, d. c., Sept. 30.-With
a view to bringing all federal employees
into spirit of cooperation and
breaking down the malicious discrimi-
natory practices of subordinate depart
mental cliefs toward our racial group
in the various departments at WASH
ington and throughout the country,
and for the purpose of advancing and
retaining our men and women who are
thus employed and certified for EN-
ployment, the Federal Employees
League has been organized with head
quarters at 1916 Pennsylvania avenue,
n. T., and is headed by the following
officers: M
Hon. Perry w. Howard, Special as
sistant attorney general, president.
DR.. ]. r. A. Grassland, director of
vocational work in the Veterans Bu-
reau, vice president.
Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Re
publican national committeeman, gen
pral counsel and legislative represen-
tative.
John T. Risher, chief of muster roll
division, Navy Department, secretary
treasurer.
In addition to these active officers
there is an advisory board.
This movement is virile from the
start and will be pushed with the
greatest intensity. There will be no
letup or compromise, but they will de
mand and insist that we go back to the
old landmark when men and women
stood on their merits rather than ON
their color.

VIRGINIA

men said among themselves-what!
are yirginians still Nirglnans?
We are Republicans. l am: have
always been; will always be. You are.
The story of the Republican party is IL
history of the progress of my people
and the only record of glory this ma
ton can boast. Our fight is not
contest against the Republican party.
Ours is contest against the desertioh
of the principles of the Republican
party by those in authority. ours Is
an effort to demonstrate again that
free men cannot themselves be free
while the rattle of IL single chain OF
slavery affords Il discord to the har-
mony of progress.
Our hope, the hope of Virginians, is
to drive the money changers from the
temple, rid the Republican party OF
the desecrating leadership of vulgarity,
verify the Emancipation Proclamation,
invoke in this hour the memory of
Lincoln and show our white fellow
citizens that we, too, are men. Our
battle is one of restoration. Go back,
let our cry be, go back to the princl-
pies that gave the Republican party
birth: rock the cradle in which Lin
coin was born.
Speak Kind Words.
Sneak bravely, but in kind phrases.
Give no offense to either friend or
foe. Let apt words clothe every
thought. Declare that your platform
was written by Fremont, vindicated at
Appomattox and runs by lines drawn
and staked by all who have striven to
rise. You should easily be moved to
stand both Patrick Henry and Thorn
rs jefferson, the author and the ad-
vocate, sleep in the soil of Virginia.
Some will say that you would de-
stroy the Republican party. Let your
answer be that no man-nO set of men
can destroy the Republican party. Let
YOUR answer be that whoever lays
/ hands upon the fourteenth amend
ment to the Constitution has assaulted
the shrine of the Republican party,
and whatever authority approves the
deed is faithless alike to the memory
of white and black men who join
hands in the task to set free all the
people of our country. My words are
plain, but note that L am not bitter
MY confidence in the justice of my
countrymen remains mistaken; my
trust in God no man can move. The
evil hour for my country is on before.
We are now scorned because of our
color because of an ancient courage,
but when the hour strikes we must
again sustain our government. Our
fight, therefore, is against the doc
trine that it is proper to tax and arm
us to maintain the government, but
improper to hear our voice in the par
lament of government or seat us in
the councils of party confederation.
How be it, other men have borne a
heavier burden. Ours are not the first
tears to flow.
Words for All.
will now close. My words are for
black and white alike. My words are
for all Virginians. 1 see united
country in the future. 1 see RepuD-
lican party resting on character and
not on color. 1 see the brand of out
lawry erased from the brow of wom-
on. who also love and bear children.
I see a better day. When the RepuD-
lican party, the worlds grand organ
ization of free men and free speech,
free labor and a free flag, is restored
to former principles and the Republic
