COURT MAY MAKE
RICHEST WOMAN
A PAUPER

NEW ORLEANS, La, Nov. 5.-Mrs.
Lille Taylor, heralded as the richest
woman of the Race in the world, may
lose her wealth and become penniless.
She is heir to a $20000,000 estate.
She has been prevented, pending fur
ther court proceedings from obtaining
possession of oil lands in Claiborne
Parish worth millions of dollars. The
decision also grants the state a rehear-
ing also claiming ownership OF the
lands.
She was awarded the lands in judg-
ment rendered April II by the third dis
trict court of Claiborne Parish. She
alleged she was bequeathed the land by
her mother, Iona .McGhee. Her claims
to the property were contested by Ange-
lima Allen, mother of Iona McGhee
who maintained Lille Taylor was in
ilcgitimate child The supreme court
upheld the lower courts judgment when
Angelina Allen appealed the case.
The state then entered the case, claim
ing she was an illegitimate child and
the state was entitled to ownership OF
the lands. The supreme court agar
decided in favor OF her and the state
applied for the rehearing granted. The
enormous value of the land, originally
worth about $4,000, arose from finding
oil on it.

succeeded in hriding work for 500

pared with 232 in the whole month OF
August Especially gratifying is the
increase in the number of men placed;
247 in the period mentioned as COM
pared with S8 in August" Though
this showing is encouraging, it should
not be regarded too fayorably since
much of this work was temporary.
Many of the churches and clubs and
the Y. NJ. c. A. did splendid work last
winter in caring for the unemployed,
and many have shown their interest
this year by inquiring as to plans for
the coming winter. These splendid
workers and the public will be kept

MOB RIDDLES HIM

ST. JOSEPH, MO, Nov. 5.-City
fremen turned from their role of fight
ing fires here last Tuesday and set fire
to a house in which Charles Hender-

Henderson is said to have been
wanted by the police for burglary when
he was located in a house at 9th and
Sycamore streets. When ordered to
surrender, Henderson answered with
bullets. Four officers fell wounded.
Meanwhile crowds began gathering, in
Guiding scores of former soldiers,

fire department was then called, and
the building was soon in flames. Hen

SOLDIER SENTENCED
To JAIL, MAKES UNIQUE
CHARGE AGAINST j. s.

SPARTANBURG, S. c., Nov. g
Evans Bobo, as he went on the stand
in his own defense for shooting two
white men, made a unique plea, Pres
ident Harding, ex-President Wilson,
and the whole United States.
The testimony was that he went
into the field where W. r. Cannon
and his family were at work, and
asked about the boil weevil. He then
turned to T. Z. Cannon, son of w.
r. Cannon, and said: "You have
some pretty girls here; how about
one of them?" He had a gun, and
the girls left at once, going toward
the house. The man tried to get him
to go off, but instead, he shot at the
elder man, reloaded and shot again,
hitting both men.
Bobo was tried with handouts on,
which is unusual, but he is considered
dangerous. He claims to be crazy,
but commission of physicians say
he is sane. When he went on the
stand he made a rather dramatic
speech. He said:
"What they said about the shoot
ing Is TRUE. L SHOI dL MI CdHiloil
and did what they said | did. 1t was
me who did it. The reason / lost
my mind was because President Will
son promised the colored man that
if he would go to France and fight
like a man, when he came back he
would be equal to the white man
and would have the same show as the
white man, and you all know that
we amt got it. President Harding
promised when he was elected thai
he would get all the people in tht
league of nations, and make all th'
people equal, but he did not tell tht
truth. He only wanted to be elected

DIR. George u. Lipschulch (white)
420l West Rooseyelt Road, who was
charged with brutafiy fnistreating Mrs
Mamie McCray 1920 La Sale street.
when she was accused of stealing jew
clry from his home, was indicted for
assault with intent to kill and held un-
der $4,000 bonds Tuesday morning At
the same time, indictments were re-
turned against four other defendants
who were accused of aiding him in his
brutality.
The story of Mrs. McCray's brutal
treatment was published exclusively in
this newspaper, telling how she was
stripped, tied to a chair and her throat,
face and mouth cut with scissors
Try to Kill Case
a movement was Immediately set
on foot to prosecute DIR. Lipschulch,
but it was evident from the beginning
that some sinister influence was at
work to thwart justice. For some time
Mrs. McCray refused to prosecute the
doctor. Later the Chicago Law and
Order League took an interest in the
case, and finally Attorney John Viii
son was retained.
When the case came to trial in the
Maxwell Street Court Friday, October
28, Judge Schulman summarily dis
missed Mrs. Lipschulch, who was one
of the defendants. Attorney Wilson,
who was closely watching the trend OF
the case, Immediately asked for a con-
tnuance, which was granted.
In the meanwhile, evidence was sub
mitted to the grand jury, which re-
turned indictments Tuesday morning.

PRESIDENT
Devotes Entire Speech In Bir-

Question

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Nov Sin
the same state where Booker Washing
ton lived. worked. preached and prac-
ticcd his doctrine OF Cancellation with
the Southern white man, President
Harding gave utterance to practically
the same views at a speech during his
visit here last Wednesday.
The President advocated political
and economical equality for all races.
He also urged equal educational oppor-
tunities. lie expressed firm opposition
to social equality, however, when he
said.
Not Social Equality
Men OF both races may well stand
uncompromlsingl against every sug-
gc5tion OF social equality. This is not
a question OF social equality, but a
question of recognizing a fundamental,
eternal, inescapable difference.
Racial amalgamation there cannot
be. Partnership OF the races in devel-
oping the highest aims OF all humanity
there must be If humanity is to achieve
the ends which we have set for it.
The black man should seek to be,
and he should be encouraged TO be, the
best possible black man and not the
best possible imitation OF white man
Men OF both races may well stand
uncompromisingly against every sug-
gcstion OF social equality Indeed. il
would be helpful TO have that word
equality eliminated from thi, consd-
Grafton. to have It accepted on both
sides that tins is not a question OF So
cial equality, but a question OF rccog-
nizing a fundamental, eternal and in
cscapable difference We shall have
made real progress when we develop
that in attitude in the public and COM
munity thought OF both races, which
recognizes this difference.
South "A Reservoir of Ignorance"
Harding touched the South's weak
spot when he uttered a rcbukc against
the lack OF educational facilities in
Dixie lie called the South a reservoir
OF ignorance when he SAID:
1T is a matter Of the kecnest ma
tionaI concern that the South shall not
be encouraged to make its colored
population a vast reservoir OF ignor-
ance, to be drained away by the proc

Bids for Southern Votes.
He very cleycrly indicated that he
recognized the fact that the Republican
party is persona non grata" in the
South ON account OF its traditional
friendship to the Black Man. He made
a bid for Southern votes and pointed
the way to the future when he said:
Il do not wish the South to be po--
litically entirely one party; just as |
believe that is bad for the South, and
for the rest of the country, as well, so
| do not want the colored people to be
entirely OF one party | wish that both
the tradition of solidly Democratic
South and the tradition of solidly
Republican black race might be. broken
up. Neither political sectionalism nor
any system OF rigid groupings of the

USED A|RP[ANES
To HELP KILL
2500 HA|T|ANS

WASHINGTON, Nov s. New
atrocities on the part of American Ma
rnes in Haiti were exposed before the
Senate committee investigating condi-
tions in Haiti, Wednesday.
The startling testimony was made by
Major T. c. Turner, OF the Marine
Corps, who declared that $500 natives
had been slaughtered in six years. OF
that number, he added, 1882 were
killed between October /, 1919 and
October |, 1920
Maj Turner devoted two months in
1919 to an investigation of alleged kill
ings and brutal treatment OF natives
He could find no evidence OF the kill
ings OF natives held as prisoners by the
Americans, he said, although he heard
rumors OF murders OF prisoners.

That there were killings was un-
-dnubtedly true. he. added. and many
of them can be traced directly to Mai
Clark Fl . Wells "a Marine officcr), but
these were not prisoners but were ma
tives trying to escape from the Corvee
or enforced road work
The major stated he believed there
were executions OF natives without
trial" Asked for his opinion of the
report that Capt. Ernest Lavoic of the
Marines had taken Is to 70 natives to a
cemetery and ordered their execution
by machine guns. he replied he be
lievcd that may have happened" He
added that Capt Layoic had denied the
killing.
Airplanes Used Bomb
Airplanes were used by he Marines
in scouting, Maj. Turner said. and
bombs were carried as we'll as machine
guns. The natives gathered in such
small groups, however that bombing
was not effective.

the Marine Corps, to Brig. Gen. A. w
Catlin, at one time in command of the
forces of occupation, which has been
held on the confidential files of the

the "gcndarmes used the natives SC
