II have Reluctantly come to the

Notaries in State During
His Term of Office.
GOVERNORS STAND MAY
CAUSE POLITICAL CRISIS
Appointment of COlOred NOtar-
les is Held Due as Justice
to the Race.

Raleigh, N. c., May 1S--A crisis
in the political affairs of the state was
precipitated here last week when
Governor Morrison definitely declined
to re-appoint any colored notaries in
the state, and stated that no new
ones, nor any re-appointment would
be made during his term of office.
The stand of the Governor has
aroused storm of protests from all
sections Of the state. 1t is argued
that the few persons who hold posi-
tions as notaries serve the interests
of the race better than the whites,
and that the arbitrary attitude of
Governor Morrison reflects no credit
upon himself or his party.
1t is claimed that the appointment
carries with 1t no authority which
would in any way precipitate race
friction or feeling, and that in justice
to the race, re-appointments should
be made.
Former Gov. Dickett set the exam
pie, and it was generally regarded as
a good one.

BY POLICE OFFICER
Houston is Indignant Because OF
Attack Made on Editor c.

OFFICERS ASSAULT MAN
WITHOUT GIVING CAUSE
Origin of Attack is Laid to the
Fearless Attitude of the
InfOrmer Editorials.

Houston, Texas, May 18-Houston
is boiling with rage because or the
dastardly attack made by a police
officer last week upon Editor c. F..
Richardson, Jr., of the Houston In
former, during which the editor was
brutally beaten over the head with
pistol and billy" without giving
any cause for the assault.
Mr.. Richardson, who had taken his
wife to a moving picture show at the
Lincoln Theatre, was driving into the
San Felipe street garage where he
kept his car, when an auto shot by at
high speed and voice called out
"Hey!" AS the editor is one of Hou-
ston's best known men he assumed it
was some acquaintance and paid no
attention to the shout. A moment
later, after he had driven into the
garage, a man in civilian clothes
dashed into the garage, with revolver
drawn, swearing and shouting vile
epithets despite the presence of Mrs.
Richardson and crowd of men and
women who were attracted by the
noise. He demanded the editor to
submit to arrest and with his COM
panion officer bundled him into his
car and drove him with his wife to
the police station where the ofIicer,
surrounded by group of other po-
licemen beat and maltreated Richard
son, even while he was being exam
ined by the lieutenant in command.
The charge preferred, which was
greeted with jeers and laughter by
the crowd in the police headquarters
was, "This smart niger was driving
with his tail light out, one head light
out, resisted arrest and talked to me
like was CD Niger" Mrs.
Richardson was roughly handled and
thrust aside when she attempted to
wipe the blood flowing down her hus-
bands face after he had been struck
from behind by the policeman.
Editor Richardson has reputation
as one of the ablest and most fearless
editors of the country. His paper and
pen have been both bold and brave
in his exposition of the wrongs per-
petrated in Houston and the South.
His courage has won him widespread
and there are many who
feel that the attack on him was per-
haps engineered because of his up
standing attitude. AS soon as Mr..
Richardson was released he reported
the affair to Mayor Holcombe who
claimed to be a square deal mayor.
Thus far there have been no results.

II have never been more proud of

said Frank l.. Gillespie, of Chicago
in addressing the 1000 students and
teachers of Tuskegee Institute. Il
see on all sides indications OF race
progress which are very encouraging.
This splendid plant being operated by
Negroes, these earnest Negro boys
and girls striving to prepare them
selves for useful citizenship and this
highly trained faculty, composed Of
Negroes, struggling for the upffft of
the race, inspire me more than can
here express. When l see all these
things, I can readily realize why it
is that most of the successful bust
ness men and women, whom I have
met in travelling over this country,
have received at least a portion of
their training at Tuskegee Institute"
Mr.. Gillespie, who Is president of

/ have not given up my thought
that the program outlined at st. Lou

League in 1919 is a workable one.
We have been unable to carry out
that program with the meager finan-
ces of the Business League. 1t seems
to me that 1t will ultimately be neces-
sary for an organization along bust
ness lines to effectively put over this
program, and shall be interested in

shall always be interested in the
Business League and its work, and
my only regret that the cares and
responsibilities I am shouldering pre-
vent me from being as actively con-
nected with the organization in the
future as in the past.
Dr. Scott's retirement comes as a
shock to the business interests of the
country. He has been efficiently ac-
tive for so long that his connection
with the League seemed a certainty
upon which to build. Considerable
interest and speculation is aroused
by the question 'who will succeed

the next day after the three Negroes
were burned at Kirby, Texas, Will

st. Louis to an audience Of more than
one thousand white people in the
West Presbyterian Church, the aristo-
cratic section of the city, the audi
ence consisting largely of the men
and women from Arkansas, Texas,
and other Southern States. The phi
losophy of the white mans interest
in the lynching evil, was the theme
of the address. The speaker demon
strated the degrading and infreior
tendencies among the whites in lynch
ing states.
It was surprising to note how
many of these Southern people filed
by to shake hands and make acknow-
Judgement of the truth that had been
spoken, when the address was over.
The Arkansas whites, hearing That
the speaker grew up in Arkansas,
were especially demonstrative or
their interest and cordial spirit.

supplied with set of credentials as
to his honesty and character by the
Quincy police as a form of apology
for two separate and distinct arrests.
Early in the evening the Boston po-

Harris was picked up and the
Quincy police communicated with
Boston only to be informed that they
already had their man. Harris was
released and was on his way singing
when another officer picked him up
on the same description. The creden-

Eastern Road to

ASSOCIATED Negro Press)


Philadelphia, Pa, May 1S-An in
novation in menus will be introduced
on all dining cars of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, beginning with the present
week. The new form, instead of be-
ing a card, is four-page folder, the
third page of which give the articles
of goods and their prices. The other
pages are devoted to facts about the
dining-car service and railroad opera
tion.
The idea in adopting the new form
of menu is that dining-car patrons
in the moments of leisure between
giving their order and being served,
would be interested in knowing how
foor is prepared and cooked in NOV
ing train; how thoroughly the Com
pany's rules insure perfect cleanli-
ness; what goes on in the parts of the
car which the patron does not see
the kitchen and pantry; as well as
something about the general precau-
tions constantly being taken for the
safety and comfort of travellers. This
plan will perhaps give the patrons
greater appreciation of the able men
who compose the average dining car
crew.

Loan To Liberia

ing Loan to Liberia.
ASSOCIATED Negro Press. }

Washington, d. c., May 1S-In the
House the full power of the Harding
administration was brought to bear
to carry out an obligation of the
Wilson regime.
The issue was the loan of $5,000,-
600 to Liberia. A joint resolution
to reauthorize the credit provoked
one of the sharpest party clashes in
the House in years. The Democrats
violently attacked the proposal as de-
signed to reimburse international
bankers for Liberian securities.
The Republican leaders mercilessly
welded the party lash, but even then
the proposition was too much for
forty on their side who went over to
the Democrats. Many others declin-
ed to vote. The bill was finally pas
sed, 14S to 139. The resolution now
goes to the Senate.
Leading the opposition, Represen-
tative Garner of Texas said:
"This is the first time in history
that the bankers have come up and
said they are strong enough with the
administration to demand that you
do their bidding"

is in the hands of this Republican

EDITORIAL
COMMENT
(Associated Negro Press)

Indianapolis, Ind, May 1S-''Indi-
diana has spilled the beans" That
remark from a political philosopher
standing on Indiana Avenue, near the
press Row." sums up section of
the feeling with reference to Albert
j. Beveridge, winning the nomination
for United States Senator on the Re-
publican ticket, in the recent primary.
The results have been amazing to
"rock ribbed Republicans" through
out the country, except that restless
group of un-sentimental Zealots who
refuse to be comforted with playing
the game on old fashioned lines, or
new fashioned lines, according to the
point of view.
Added to the confusion is the fact
that old line Progressives are urging
Beveridge to hold an "open palm" for
the Republican nomination, 1924, if
he is elected Senator in November
That means, of course, that the ele-
ments from one end Of the country to
the other, forming the Progressive
party in 1912, will, regardless of Gus
tom, which entities President Hard
ing to a denomination without oppo-
sition, back Beveridge.
Senator Medill Mccormick, of Illi-
nois, Chairman of the Senatorial
Campaign Committee, quickly an
nounced, following the results, that
the Committee would heartily sup
port Bevereidge for election.
The color situation in the recent
primary requires careful considera-
tion. Senator New, who for years
has been known as the "Colored
Mans Friend made the square
deal' one of the issues of his re-
nomination. 1t is safe to say that he
had the majority of old line Colored
citizens with him. On the other
hand, Senator Beveridge has never
been known as a real friend to the
race, although, during the recent pri-
mary, he was able to convince the
younger element of voters in various
sections of the state, that he would
give them "fair play"
Beveridge is the orator, and New
the "gum shoe" worker and states
man. The Harding Administration,
of course, without any official en-
dorsement of the President, was made
one of the New issues. Colored
voters, while at heart in sympathy
with Republican purposes, could not
be made to feel that National Re-
publican show had been altogether
up to advance notices. 1t was unfor-
tunate for Senator New that Indiana
has no national political appointment
that may be regarded as "outstand-
ing" among Colored citizens.
Other senator's who are up for re-
nomination this year. are deeply con-
cerned about the Indiana results, as
this was the first test of strength.
Many to be re-nominated, have Col
ored constituents, and the water is
not the clearest, and what to do, is a
mooted question. Colored Beveridge
supporters were Influenced more by
faith than by sight.
