court ACTION IS
BROUGHT AGAINST
CHURCH TRUSTEES
Especial to The Tribunel

New York, June 30.-Bishop William
H. Heard of the New York Annual
Conference of the African Methodist
Episcopal Church and Cain P. Cole.
presiding elder of the Long Island dis
trict, have applied to Justice Leander
R. Faber in the supreme court to com
pei the trustees of st. Marks A. M. f..
church at Elmhurst to open the doors
of the church to the Rev Henry Irons,
who has been assigned to the church
by the bishop. The assignment of the
pastor to the church was made no
May %, and when he went there on
May 29 the doors were locked against
him. Justice Faber has reserved de-
cision.
This controversy, while primarily
among the congregation of the Afri-
can Methodist church, is vitally inn
portant to the entire business COM
munity of Elmhurst St Mark s
church is on corona avenue, in the
heart of the business section. It
stands on plot of about one acre.
This acre was purchased by white
residents of the Newtown district more
than century ago and presented to
the congregation. 1t was valued then
at only $S7.32. according to deeds on
file. Recently an offer of more than
$4,000 was made to the congregation
for the plot. While it has a frontage
on the main business street, it also
has frontage on the Long Island rail-
road and is very valuable for busi-
ness or industry.
The value of this plot is what is up
permost in the minds of those who are
in this controversy. They want to
know who is going to get that money
The present trustees want it and the
New York annual conference would
also like to have it. The business men
of the district want the controversy
settled so that some one with author
ity who will be recognized by the
courts will be able to consider the
offer made for the property. These
business men would like to see the
plot taken over and improved as a
business or industrial property for
the general benefit of the community.

south BEST PLACE
FOR NEGROES SAYS
NOTED JOURNALIST
Especial to The Tribune)

PITTSBURGH, Pa, June 30.-T
disdain the trained Negro who leaves
the South. There is so much to be
done in the southland to educate, ele-
vate and better the conditions of our
race. Strong educated men and wo-
men should stay in the South" declar-
ed Oscar w Adams, editor and pull.
Usher of the Birmingham Reporter, in
an address before large audience at
John Wesley A. NJ E. Zion church
here last Monday night.
Continuing he said, "The question of
the future of the Negro in this coun-
try is largely in the hands of the Ne
gro himself. Eighty per cent of the
Negro population lives in the South;
ninety per cent of Negro wealth is in
the South. The greatest and most
daring strides made by any Negro,
were made by southern born Negroes.
More and more this race needs to be
welded together, not so much in race
vanity and race pride as in race char
acter, old fashion worth and down
right merit But it will never be done
by pining. whining, croaking and
cursing.
When both races become complete
ly educated all disadvantages, injus-
tees and limitations will be removed"
declared because of ignorance. 1t is
foolish to think for a moment that we
can have a peaceful, happy, normal
civilization with a half ignorant and
half intelligent group in either race
The ignorant of both races must be
educated.
"The day has long since passed."
thundered Mr.. Adams, when race
men and women should be satisfied to
take an imaginary trip to heaven each
Sunday under the leadership of their
gradiloquent pastor When the Ku
Klux fight us with fire l declare that
it is absolutely foolish for us to talk
about fighting them with prayer. Brave
men must be willing to fight them
back with the same weapons; they
must meet these masked and white
robed marauders with shot and shell
if we would protect our families and
command respect"

TEXAN DESCRIBES
RECENT BURNING
AT STAKE OF BLACKS
INDICATES WHITE MEN, NOT NE.
GRoEs BURNED, WERE GUILTY
OF ASSAULT

Speaking at Thursdays meeting of
the Thirteenth Annual Conference of
the National Association for the Ad-
Tancement of Colored People, in Beth
any Baptist church, 269 Bank street,
Newark, Daniel Kelly. white Texan
from Waco told a dramatic story of
the burning to death, by mob of in
nocent Negroes in Kirwin, Texas, on
May z, 1922. Mr.. Kelly said in part:
"Three Negroes were burned at the
stake in Kirvin, Texas, May Z, 1922,
for the alleged offense of brutally as
saulting and killing a seventeen year
old white girl, Eula Ausley. A week
later I personally investigated this
affair and found the facts to be as fol-
lows:
Between the family of John King,
grandfather of Eula Ausley, and a
neighboring family of ProwelIs there
had been bitter feud in which one
of the King boys had been manned
and two Prowells driven from the
country.
From the thicket where the girls
body was found foot tracks led to the
Prowells and the two Prowell boys
disappeared while the posse was
hunting for the perpetrators of the
murder. After the burning of the
Negroes the Prowells were arrested
and later released when they explain
ed that they had been making bran
mash in the thicket. The truth Of
their story was not investigated and
it was not ascertained whether the
bran mash was there or not. John
King said he was certain that white
men were implicated in the crime.
'Of the three Negroes burned the
sheriff said that one was innocent in
his opinion and the evidence shows
that not more than three could have
done the act although five were mob
bed to death for it.
"The sentiment of the people gener-
ally was that an example had been
made. it was of small consequence
whether the Negroes were guilty or
innocent"
Mr.. Kelly was sent to Texas by and
made his investigation for the Nation
al Association for the Advancement of
Colored People

COLORED SHRINERS
WIN LEGAL BATTLE
in STATE OF FLORIDA
Especial to The Tribune)

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, June 3d.
What has sent a thrill of triumph
through the hearts of Attorney D. w.
Perkins, legal adviser for the Masonic
fraternity of the jurisdiction of the
Most Worshipful Union Grand Lodge
Of the state of Florida, and the 20 or
more thousand who pay allegiance to
that jurisdiction handed down in the
circuit court in the city of Tampa on
the 5th of this month, wherein the
temple of the Mystic Shriners, white
had sued out writ of injunction, re-
straining all colored men in Florida
from using the name, insignia, para
phernalia. words, costumes, etc., of
the Ancient Arabic Mystic Shriners.
Arguments were made before Judge
Robes of Tampa, who holds the repu-
tation of being one of the fairest
judges that ever set in any court in
this state. The case was fought hard,
and every assault made by the oppo-
sition was smashed by Attorney Per-
kins, and Judge Robles gave his de-
cision, denying the injunction.
This is the first time white Shrin-
ers have attempted to interfere
with colored Shriners in this state,
and their failure may not be the last
Of it, Attorney Perkins is being lion
lied over his great victory The
white press quickly published the en-
trance of this case, but so far, not
one of them has had word to say
about the denial of the court to grant
the Injunction.
