EROS|N MOVE
ON THE COAST
Shore municipalities With
State Commerce Aid Plan
Coast Defense Structures

TRENTON. June 20.-A definite
tart toward curbing the erosion of
New Jersey beaches was made yes
terday when the State Board of Com
merce and Navigation announced its
plans for a defense structures at
Long Branch, Longport and Asbury
Park. Work at these places. for
which state appropriations, to be
matched by the municipalities, have
already been made. Is to precede
completion of the comprehensive
survey of the whole erosion problem.
which has been started by the board.
THE plans and specifications for
all these immediate projects" said
President Smith, are submitted to
the municipalities for their approx
al. If there are any changes desired.
the board will be glad to sit with
local representatives and see If we
cannot come to some agreement.
They must, however, meet with our
approval before any state money will
be spent" According to the boards
chairman, the local municipalities
will let the contracts, under the ap-
proved plans, and be reimbursed to
the extent of the authorized state
aid.
Mayor Housman, of Long Branch
dIu lily Ili6illttl ~. W.
were present at yesterdays meeting
and said that he would submit the
boards plans for his city at a meet
ing of the commissioners tonight.
The plan calls for one big stone riff
raft" jetty, and the mayor intimated
that while he favored this plan, a
majority of the commission favor
ed fifty-foot extensions of the pres
emit series of wooden ~jetties. A con-
ference with the state officials is
therefore likely to be necessary be-
fore a plan is finally adopted.
Commissioners T.. N. Goldsmith
and f. n. Lavino, of Longport, were
present, and expressed acquiescence
in four alternative plans submitted
by the boards engineer, B. F. Cres-
son. They said that they would
proceed to advertise for bids on all
four of the plans submitted, to de-
termine which is the cheapest.
The board decided to accept an
Invitation to spend the coming
weekend at the Columbia Hotel,
Belmar, so that they may talk over
the erosion problem as it affects Bel
mar. and look over the ground. Bel
mar has as yet, it is understood,
taken no active steps in the direc-
ton of protection. 1t also authorized
its coast erosion committee to make
expenditures u of the $4,000 APP

Two colored pugilists. contending
for honors in the Knockout Hall OF
Fame, received a sudden jolt, Thurs
day. when accosted by the ''law" in
the freight yards of the Northern
Pacific. But by using the customary
precaution and discretion which is
accredited TO all men of the pugilistic
world, they were able to draw sus-
pended sentence and a warning to
leave town, by pleading not guilty
to the charge of vagrancy.
1t is hoped that after this unfor-
tunate delay. the Zenith City was not
deprived of the boxing performance
promised by this couple. The two

Heavyweight Champ
Played by Tribune
Chicago Tribune Critics Jack
Dempsey for not Fighting
Harry Wills.
,Associated Negro Press,


Chicago, H.. April HAS Jack
Dempsey a streak of Yellow" This
question has been asked by thou
sands OF fight fans with reference to
the champian's persistent series of
aiibis about opening a way to permit
Harry Wills 70 prove that Dempsey
is worthy of his title.
The Chicago Tribune in a leading
editorial proceeds to Pooh Pooh!"
at Jack in the following cynical tone:
Dempsey says that there is no
use talking about fight with Harry
Wills, the brunette mauler. The
public, whatever that is, has nc in
terest in il and would not pay to
see II, he says. We think Mr.. Deup-
sey underestimates public curiosity.
A great many people would like to
know whether he Is heavyweight
champion of the world or white
heavy weight champion. We shall
assume that he is white heavyweight
champion until he gets into a ring
with Wills and proves otherwise.
'P. S. The reason Dempsey does
not fight Wills is because he is afraid
to do so-not physically afraid to ex-
change wallops but afraid to take a
chance with his title and the money
he can make with it.
''P. p. S. Why the dickens do we
keep on writing prize fight editorials
and causing grief to sober minded
citizens? 1t isn't to lead the second
ward away from Mayor Thompson.
The second ward would like to have
Dempsey fight Wills but we are not
engaged in any political maneuvers
I'VE write prize fight editorials
because prize fighting interests peo-
pie. Prize fighting is the most in
teresting subject to male citizens of
voting age in the United States
bar one. That is the Volstead act.
Eliminate Dempsey and Volstead
from the conversation of the average
male gathering and without learning
the deaf and dumb alphabet the men
could say all they had to say with
their fingers, especially about the Pa
cific treaties, the Geona conference
and the coal strike and the condition
of justice in Chicago.

Matchmaker Johnny Walker has
struck snag which has caused him
to change the main card of his boxing
bout. He will not have Battling Mon
roe of Cincinatti to fight Hopkins,
but will choose local boy, maybe
Laurence Tucker, a likely aspirant
and strong contender who feels
that he can beat Hopkins. Dave
Wright, strong colored Minneapolis
middle-weight, who has been going
good on amateur cards held in the
Twin Cities, feels that he is now
ready for the professional ranks and
believes he can take the measure of
Hopkins. However, it is the general
opinion that although Wright is just

only one-third of the total popula-

enth of the wealth of the United
States, while our total population
here is only one-tenth, cannot be
overlooked forever. said Mr.. Owen.
Those who are spending their time
dancing through life, had better give
a bit of thought to the training of
their heads, or they will soon find
that they have been crowded out of
the places to dance. THE control
lers of finance are the hackers of the
Jim-crow movement" said Mr.. Owen,
because they intend to keep the
Negro indefinitely admiring the
beauty of the world or fighting his
brother, and not bothering about
where the wealth of their produc-
tions is being spent"
The Church's Part.
The church must open its doors to
educate the people. The churches
and schools, financed by different
interests, have handpicked sermons
and lessons to give their congrega-
tons and classes. according to the
speaker. Even the stage and screen
has been affected by the money pow
ers, and the results are, that the
Negro has been shown as a degraded
being, while the good qualities have
been kept out of sight. Thus, many
people are taught each day that the
Negro is not fit associate. Liberty
from this sort of slavery is the "New
Emancipation" for which Mr.. Owen
is fighting the tireless fight. He de-
clared that liberty is cheap at any
price and that we are living on the
edge of volcano, which at any time
may become active.
Mr.. Owen will speak in Minneap-
oils on April IL at st. Peter A. M. E..
church. He will make a return ad-
dress in st. Paul few days later.

Mexico to have
co|oTed Colony
Negro Citizens of Oklahoma to
Build Large Community
Center in Mexico.
tAssociated Negro Press)

ASSOCIATED Negro Pre.s)
Muskogee, Okla. April 6.-Much
interest is being manifested here in
the Negro movement to Mexico. The
colony which was founded in lower
California, Mexico, sometime ago is
to be made the nucleus around which
il is hoped TO build a large colored
community. The effort was orig
inally started by Californians, but
the wealthy men of this state, head
ed by j. B. Key of Okamulgee, known
as the oil king, and R. Emmett
Stewart, the famous attorney, have
bought heavily into the project and
in the near future will head an ex-
pedition into the southern country.
Hugh E. McBeth of Los Angeles, one
of the founders of the movement, has
been spending some weeks here and
has succeeded in interesting large
groups of substantial men of the
state in the organization. He is en-
thusiastic about the success of the
effort and among other things said:
Mexico Beckons to Negro.
THE fifteen millions of Mexican
people beckon to the American col
ored people, Negroes, Indians and
others. to come and build, and be
happy. live and enjoy! Where on
Gods earth will honest toll create
more wealth in a given period, than
in Mexico-the land of sunshine,
flowers, clean pure water, gold, sill
yer, petroleum, forests, fisheries,
beautiful men and women and soft
sweet music, and beautiful moon
light nights"
Delux Trip Planned.
Plans are being completed for
trip-de-luxe into Mexico via Cali
fornia There will be twenty or more
in the party. which will leave within
a few days of April 10th from either
Muskogee or Oklahoma City. At Los
Angeles, the party will be the guests
of the Chamber of Commerce. There
will be an auto tour through the
greatest wonder of American cities.
The entry into Mexico will be by Tia
Juana, Lower California, where some
day a new state will arise. Inspec-
tion will be made of the great prop
critics of the Lower California Mexi-
can Land and Development Company
and the wonderful Pacific Port of
Ensenada and Santa Tomas and
Santa Quentin. Leaving Los Angeles
the party will visit the west coast of
Mexico, thence into Mexico. where
arrangements have been completed
for very important conference, the
nature of which will be divulged
later to the colored men, women and
children throughout the United
States.
