who shall devote all of his time to
the organization and promotion of To-
cal business leagues and to the work
of establishing suitable agency for
putting our business men in touch
with the most helpful sources of aid
in the promotion and development of
their businesses. Those of you who
have succeeded can in many cases
count the change in your fortunes
from the day when some one person
gave you the suggestion that put you
on the right track toward success.
Such a representative of the league
would do large and real service
along the very lines for which the
league was established by DIR. Wash
ington.
National Urban League, with head
quarters ut 127 East Twenty-third
Street. New York City, has announced
the appointment of three Fellows
for Il years social service training, be-
ginning in September. Two are ap-

Five prominent white men of Ma
con, Ca, have been indicted for lynch
ing John (Cocky) Glover recently by
the Bibb County Grand Jury, accord
ing to announcement made here today
by the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People. Clio
yer was lynched in Monroe County,
Ga, after he had shot and killed Dep
uty Sheriff Walter C. Byrd, who was
attempting to place Glover under ar
rest.
The five men indicted are among
the most prominent in Macon. Her
bert Block, one of them, is manager
of the Hotel Dempsey, the leading no.
tel in Macon. II. L. McSwain, another
the Southern Cooperative Fire Insur
ance Company. n. Unice is a mer-
chant and Guy Jones is a city fire
man. The fifth man indicted was un-
named, as he has not been located,
having fled from town. Bond was set
ut amounts ranging from $1,000 to
$1,000 each. Other indictments are
expected to follow.
The Indictment, charging rioting,
reads in part:
'Block, McSwain, Unice and the
other party did unlawfully and with
force and arms, together with persons
unknown to the grand jury, do a GER
tain unlawful act of violence to-wit:
take from William Branan, a deputy
sheriff, and from J. L. Mutually, a dep
uty sheriff, a certain prisoner law
fully in charge of these officers, John
Glover, alias Cocky Glover, for the
purpose of mobbing and lynching Clio
yer, and did in a violent and tumultu-
Gus manner, after taking Glover in
charge, transport him across the line
between Monroe and Bibb counties for
the purpose of lynching and killing
Glover"
The n. A. A. C. p. is carefully fol-
lowing these indictments to see if trials
and convictions follow, or if the in
dictments are not to be pressed, as
has been the custom in the few cases
where lynchers have been indicted in
Southern states.

NINE. WALKER
COMPANY NOT
SOLD TO JEWS

With delegates numbering 300 pres
ent from nearly every state in the
Union, the big annual convention OF
the agents of the Madame G. j. walk
er Manufacturing Company got under
way at Bethel A. NJ. Il. Church, Ian
vale and Druid Hill avenue, Wednes-
day.
Mrs. Wilson Speaks.
Mrs. Wilson was heartily applaud
ed when she delivered lecture We'd
nesday night on her recent trip to the
Holy Land. A number of other speak
ers who followed her. including Bish-
op John Hurst and DIR. Ernest Lyons,
paid high tribute to her ability to step
into the late Nine. Walkers place and
carry on her business.
Ransome Denies Rumors.
Denying rumors that the Nine. G. j..
Walker Company had sold out to
Jews, had white business managers
and white advertising managers, and
had been compelled to sell some of its
real state holdings, II. r. RanSome
declared that these reports were broad
cast by rival manufacturers of toilet
articles.
He declared that Nine. Walkers
will was so drawn that only one-third
of the 100000 income of the company
went to her daughter, and the other
two-thirdS to charitable Institutions
Under the will, he declared, the late
Nine. Walker had made it impossible
to sell the company to a white firm.
He introduced Harry Evans as the ad-
vertising manager who had placed S43,-
600 last year in colored newspapers,
and that in some years the companys
appropriation for advertising was as
much as 100000.
Mr.. Ransome said that the company
manufactured sixteen different toilet
articles, and that the sun never set on
Walker statesmen who are at work dav
and night in all parts of the world.
Since Madam Walkers death, two
years ago, he averred the company had
paid Uncle Sam 100000 in revenue

can people and sets the hair of pub
lie sentiment against organized labor
ut a time when only public sentiment
can keep organized labor from a
crushing defeat.
Why in heavens name those fool
trainmen, who deserted their trains,
did not know that they We're taking
bread out of the mouths of hundreds
of thousands of laborers who have
have honestly earned it, is too much
for the average man to understand.
Union labor is having n fight for its
very existence. This shopmens strike
was ill-timed because public sentiment
was not ready for it. But the shop
men by their decent conduct were
swinging public sentiment to them,
when bang! comes this action of the
trainmen and the public which does
not discriminate, swings back to the
railroad owners. 1t is pitiful beyond
words. Yet things are what they are
and not what they should be.
The men who left those people to
swelter and suffer out there on the
desert We're, of course, cowardly and
ruthless. But cowardice and cruelty
may be forgiven. However, such
shameless, blatant folly, such hare
Drained, lame-witted stupidity, never
will be forgiven.
If the men wanted to abandon their
trains in Los Angeles or in San Ber-
nardino, that was their royal privi-
lege. But TO take a thousand or two
people who had done these trainmen
no wrong, and to leave them upon the
desert at the mercy of the heat and
the hot winds, to get even with em-
ployers 1000 miles away was wicked
and poolish beyond words. And the
sad mart of it is that the folly will be
paid for in hundreds of thousands of
working mems homes, who are as
blameless as the people marOoned in
the sand.
Why in the name of all that is good
and holy can't labor get Il little sense
in fighting its battles?
These lines are written by one who
believes in union labor; who is willing
to fight, bleed and die for union la
Dor, but who would like to see labor
use common sense so that what it
gains in one step is not lost in the
next.

EXTRACTS FROM ADDRESS OF DR.. R.
R. M0TEN
ANNUAL MEETING NATIONAL NEGRO BUSI-
NESS LEAGUE, NORFOLK VA, WEDNESDAY
EVENING, AUGUST 10

Business Promotion, because it is
fundamental. AT each of the last two
meetings of the league I have placed
before you the urgent need there is
for some fund to be available for It'd
ing over our solvent business enter
prises during periods of business de-
preston, and for supplying the capital
needed for the expansion of success
full and growing enterprises. Most of
you appreciate the serious loss to the
race of more than one real enterprise
for lack of liquid assets, Immediately
available to carry them over the cri-
sis. AS proposed, the plan calls for
the purchase of blocks of stock by
business men in every line, the entire
proceeds of which would be applied
to the creation of such fund, to be
operated by a competent directorate
along conservative lines. The sale of
1000 shares at 500 a share would
the first year give 100000 for such
purposes, which, if kept intact for five
years, would give S5OO,OO0 available
for such purposes-a very substantial
foundation upon which to build larg-
er structure of Negro business.
"The time has come for this organ
iZation to take necessary steps
through a committee appointed for
the purpose, to put into operation the
machinery for the successful estab-
lishment of this fund.
'Now for the second feature of that
program: Except for the jar and
shake-up caused by the two strikes
the railroad and the coal mining
strike-the country as whole is get
ting back to normal very rapidly. As
the tide swings toward the flood, /
wish to recommend that we undertake
the revival of what have been called
Trade Boosting Campaigns these
campaigns to be put over in every
community where there is local
branch of the National Negro Busi-
ness League. Many of you will recall
the report made at the meeting in
Chattanooga in 1917, of the very sue
cessful results obtained in Atlanta
from n trade boosting campaign con-
Quoted by the local league in that city
and reported at our meeting by Mr..
r. X. Gibson.
"a third feature of this program
that should be of great help in pro-
noting Negro business is the organi-
zation and conduct of short courses in
business for Negro business men I'M
der the auspices of local leagues. The
idea, in brief, is to call together the
Negro business men of a certain sec
ton for a period of from two to five
days, and there present to them in a
simple, direct form the essentials of
business methods and principles that
will be most helpful in their particu-
lar lines. The leaders in this would
be men who have been successful in
some particular line of business, who
would take the time to place before
the men who are gathered together
those elemental facts upon which his
success has been achieved. Colored
business men who have succeeded
could be particularly helpful to those
who are just beginning.

now come for the National Negro
Business League to employ a director

MasOns Pass Strong
Resolution EndOrs-
ing Dyer Bill ..-

At the International Conference of
the Grand Masters, Past Grand Mas
ters, Grand Secretaries, etc, Prince
Hall Masons of the United States, rep
resenting some 100000 Masons, at
their meeting in Washington, D. c.,
on August s, passed strong resolutions
calling on the United States Senate
to pass without delay the Dyer Anti
Lynching Bill to correct certain
abuses and barbarous treatment
meted out to the citizens Of this Re-
public" according to an announce
ment made today by the National AS
sociatiOn for the Advancement of Col
ored People. The resolutions called
upon the Senate to take this step not
only to end the disgrace of mob vio-
lence, but to remove this blot from
the name of America, because 'in for
eign countries the belief is common
the United States government is indif-
ferent to punish the evil doers, and
we regret that the reports on lynching
will tend to low the respect and es-
TEEN which the nation enjoys"
The resolutions were signed by E.
II. Holmes, Grand Master of the State
of Washington; II. 1. Monroe, Grand
Master of Kansas, and A. A. Schom-
burg, Grand Secretary, who composed
the Committee on Resolutions. Copies
of the resolutions have been forward
ed to Calvin Coolidge, Presiding Of
ficer of the Senate; Henry Cabot
Lodge of Massachusetts, Republican
leader, and Samuel NJ. Shortridge of
California, who is to lead the fight TO
pass the Dyer bill.

II HE COLORADO STATESMAN
takes great pleasure in publishing the
following extracts, coming from a man
who is growing greater in wisdom
and richer in the ability of leadership
of his people.
The address, in part, follows:
"The meeting of the National Ne
gro Business League this year finds
our organization face to face with the
largest opportunity for service that
has been presented to it since its foun-
dation. The aftermath of the war is
presenting to Negroes everywhere in
creasing opportunity for their individ-
ual advancement and for effective CO
operation with each other in those
things which make for the advance
ment of the race as a whole.
in no direction is this more true
than in the matter of business enter

slightly of business and money-mak
ing, but, do you know, my friends,
that there are few things that constL

real capacity, both for individual inl-
tiative and for cooperative effort as
this thing we call business the ca
pacity for making and using money.
Business. then, is real gauge or
progress of n race, test of its ca
pacity for progress, of its ability to
survive where. competition is relent-
less and searching.
"a review of the Negro business
since our last meeting shows some
reverses along with record of very
substantial achievement. But it is re-
assuring to note that even these re-
verses, when compared with the total
number of failures throughout. the
country, do not in any way reflect dis
credit upon the business capacity OF
the race; as matter of fact the per-
centage of failures among Negro bust
ness men during last year has been
considerably less than the percentage
for the country at large. At the same
time, the expansion of Successful en-
terprises has exceeded anything previ-
ously recorded in the history of Ne
gro business.
"As we enter upon a new year i'll

BRIDGE AT MATAWAN
STILL NOT REPAIRED

MATAWAN, Oct. 4:-There is
considerable comment about the
borough because of the fact that
the Board of Freeholders as yet
have not rebuilt the bridge over the
brook at the water works in Church
street which was demolished some
months ago when a large truck
crashed through it. The fact that
the bridge is down makes it impos-
sible for those who reside east of
the bridge to reach the borough
without going a mile or more by de-
tour roads.
This road at the present time is
used as a detour for cars going to
the shore resorts and the fact that
the bridge is down means that au-
tomobilists must drive two or three
extra miles in order to get back on
to the main highway again. The
members of the Matawan Lake
Committee, Inc, have requested the
freeholders to raise the bridge sew
eral feet higher when 1t is rebuilt SO
that boats will be able to go up In
der 1t and the long grades on either
side OF the bridge cut down to con-
siderable extent.
