tertain Women From Sister
Republics Over World.
(Associated Negro Press)

washington, ID. u, apr. z1.-WO-
men from % countries, including Gu
ba and the PHILIPPINES planned for
mutual cooperation in a general
movement for advancing women's
rights at the Pan-American Confer
ence of women in Baltimore, in con-
nection with the annual convention
of the League of Women Voters.
Representatives of every country
in North, South and Central Amer
lea, including Haiti were present,
with the possible exception of San
Salvador.
The questions on which Pan-Amer-
ican women will seek to unite their
work cover child welfare, education,
white slavery and the civil and pol
itical status of women.
The convention of the League of
Women voters will enable the visit
ing women from sister republic to get
a glimpse of suffrage in action.
The convention followed the ses-
sion of the Pan-American conference,
and as the sessions were similar 20
those of a national political conven-
ton it illustrates for the visitors how
the women of the United States are
exercising the political power they
have obtained.
AS a result of the Convention and
conference, suffrage leaders here ex-
pect an immediate and general expan-
sion of the movement for equal rights
for women.

.'T have found in my experience

McCracken, local real estate dealer
"that a great deal Of predjudice
against the Negro is due to the lack
of attention given to their property
We do not keep our lawns trim and
clean nor do we keep our homes in
good repair. For this reason, It Ia
generally claimed that once Negro
begins to live in district, property
in that district begins to decrease in
value"
"How do you find conditions in st.

Every much better" he replied.
"Our people here, in this respect. are
very attentive. One avenue here, !

Mr.. McCracken also urged property

homes continual attention and to join
in with the various Clean Up and
Paint Up campaigns.

BORNO ELECTED
PRESIDENT Of
HAITI REPUBLIC
Luis Borno, Well Known and
Popular Member of the Bar,
Elected President.
INAUGURATION DAY Is
TO BE EARLY IN MAY
B0rnO's Election Indicates that
Haiti Means to Fight For
independence.

Port Au Prince, Haiti, Apr al
By unanimous vote of the electors,
Luis Borno has been elected Presi-
dent of the Republic of Haiti. Borno
is a well known and popular member
of the bar, and a member of the cab
met of the outgoing President, Sudre
Dartigeunave. He will be inducted
into Office early next month.
Borno was at one time foreign sec
retary under Dartigeunave, and has
been for many years prominent and
striking figure in Haitian affairs. He
is training in foreign affairs, and his
long practice as an attorney admira-
bly, fits him for the position which he
is to hold.
With Borno will come a more ben
Efficient American occupation, though
the United States is not expected to
evacuate. The unanimous choice of
Borno indicates that the Haitians in
tend to make a prolonged fight for
absolute independence and control of
their dominion.
Appointment of a minister pleni-
potentiary from the United States to
the Island is expected at no late date.
Several Colored men are known to be
persona grata to the new administra-
ton, but there is a general disposi-
ton on the part of Colored men Of
wealth and prominence to shun the
appointment. The salary is $40, 900
and prerequisites.

Oklahoma City. Okla. Apr. a.
In letter to Roscoe Dunjee. editor
of the Black Dispatch of this city, De-
putty Sheriff John H. Smitherman of
Tulsa completely defies instructions
given him by mob of towards of
the night" Less than a month ago
Smitherman was taken from his room
in the Red Wing Hotel of Tulsa and
brutally beaten and mutilated by
mob of masked men because of his
political activities. He was warned
to leave Tulsa and the state at the
time but he has not retreated a step.
In his letter to the Black Dispatch.
he says:
Permit me to thank you for the
fearless stand you have taken In de-
nouncing the cowardly mob who on
the night of March IL. abducted and
severely whipped me, and afterwards
cut off my left ear; giving as their
only reason. that I am a Democrat,
and had been using my influence to
convert others of my race to the Dem
ocratic faith.
II am a Democrat by principle,
and may I add, that even another
such treatment, or worse for that
matter, as was rendered me on the
night of March IL, could not change
my convictions.
"Of course you know that / must
most naturally feel spirit Of indig-
nation; yet, IL my sacrifice, which is
tremendous can in any manner serve
to the advantage Of our people pol
itically or otherwise, then / most
graciously accept 1t as an honor.
"In your first news article about
the incident the impression was plac-
ed that the Thugs" made me eat my
own ear. / must ask the correction
of that assertion. They did not make
me eat Of my own body would
rather suffer death.
MANY of my friends about the
state have il, I am informed, that
am contemplating leaving the state
in sequence Of the threat by the mob
bist that they would kill me II did
not. You may say for me that It is
not true. When I leave the state /
will not go in respect Of a suggestion
or even the request of a mob. I am
convinced that Tulsa's best white cit
izenry does not condone or sanction
the actions OF these towards of the
night" in fact they very bitterly con-
denim the occurrence.
Hoping you the success that must
certainly come to the honorable char
acter that you are, I am,
Yours very truly,

Grand Master Holmes of Seattle
MasOns Ordered to Keep Out

COURT HOLDS HOLMES
ACTED WITHOUT POWER
Masonic Law States That Grand
Master Cannot Suspend
Individual Members.
ASSOCIATED Negro Press)


Seattle, Wash, Apr. 27.-In the
matter of complaint of Jephthah and
Mt. Rainier Chapters o. e. 8. vs.. e.
H. Holmes, grand master of Masons
and co-defendants, the application for
q temporary injunction and the de-
PENDANTS demurrer to the complaint
came up for hearing in the superior
court before Judge J. T. Ronald.
After hearing the arguments Of the
attorneys the court overruled the de-
murrer holding that he would grant
an Injunction as asked for by Jeph-
thah and Mt. Rainier Chapters re-
straining Holmes and his co-defend-
ants from committing certain acts
complained of by the plaintiffs. The
court directed the plaintiffs attor-
neys, Morris and Shipley to prepare
an order enjoining Holmes as a Ma
son or as grand master of Masons
from interfering or attempting to die
tate concerning the affairs of the Eas-
tern Star.
Court Issues Statement.
The court commenting on this
phase of the case remarked as fol-
lows: "The defendant Holmes, as a
Mason, had no right to interfere with
or dictate to the Eastern Star than
I have and I am not either a Mason
or a member of the Eastern Star"
other points brought out during the
trial by the attorneys were, that when
the Grand Lodge convened the grand
master had no further power as all
power was vested in the grand lodge
during the session; that the grand
master had no right to set the laws
aside during the session OF a grand
lodge; that master Masons who have
been suspended should have a COM
plete remedy at the hands Of the
grand lodge which was compelled to
do them justice by the laws of Ma
sonry whether they asked for it or
not.
