years ago by Marcus Garvey.
Just prior to the "War to Make
the World Safe for Democracy" a
marked change bega~ to manifest
itself iptetbe Negro rress. Radical
publications like The CRUSADER, The
Emancipation, blazed the trail for a
more militant economic policy, while
The Voice and The Negro World
gave expression to a growing racial
radicalism, the latter paper also
serving as the organ of a futile
Zionism.
During the world war note of
bitterness crept into the Negro
press to be followed upon the con-
clusion of the war by a general tone
of militancy, which was evident in
all but the most servile and reac-
tionary publications. While the war
was yet on, radical publications like
The Crusader were Analysing and
attacking the brand of democracy
for which the Allies were seeking
to make the world safe. These pub
lications openly encouraged resist
ing with force all efforts at humili-
alton and terrorism, with the result
that several white mobs met armed
resistance to their marauding expe-
ditions into Negro sections. Especi-
ally did this happen after the re-
turn home of the colored soldiers.
Go Treacherous Road.
Their naive hope in the univer-
salty of Wilson's democracy shat
tered by events, Negro editors be-
came more and more militant in
voicing their racial demands. Few
OF them, however, saw the class
Implications in the racial struggle.
Others, like Du Bots of The Crisis,
saw quite clearly the class impli-
cations but were unwilling to come
out openly against those responsible
for the theories of higher and lower
races and the exploitation and deg
radiation of their race, with these
theories as justification, since it was
upon the "philantrophy" of this
very group that their own status
as Headers" was based. A. Philip
Randolph and Chandler Ownes, edi-
tors of The Messenger, maintained
militant struggle for a while, but
with the general betrayal of the
working class by the socialist party
these two socialists went the treach-
erous road of their colleagues.
With the steady rise Of the Negro
bourgeoisie the tendency is toward
conservatism on the part of papers
such as The Amsterdam News, The
Pittsburgh Courier, the Chicago De-
fender. The Atlanta Independent,
The Baltimore Afro-American, etc.
r. is no accident that these papers
are the first to give expression to
The growing power of the Negro
5ourgeoisie. They are all published
ia the big industrial centers where
The bourgeoisie is concentrated. They
are among the best edited and most
powerful of the Negro press. While
tending toward economic conserva-
tism these papers still retain, how
over, a large measure of militancy
N racial demands. Of this group
The Atlanta Independent is the
most reactionary, the Baltimore
Afro American the least reactionary.

Champion, the only Negro labor

FARM FIRE AT GEoRGETOWN
Number of Buildings and Wheat
and Hap Crops DESTROYED

The outbuildings on the farm of
William d. Burton, near George
tow, and tenanted by David Car
mine, were destroyed by fire last
week with the contents which in
cluded a considerable quantity of
farm machinery, large quantity
of hay and $50 bushels of wheat.
The loss is $4,000 and is partly
covered by insurance. Fire, the
origin of which is unknown. was
first discovered in the tenant house
occupied by Carmine and the
Georgetown fire department was
summoned The flames in the
house were extinguished but FIVE
other buildings caught fire and all
were destroyed except one chicken
house. When it was seen that the
fire was spreading, fire companies
from Lewes, Milton, and Millsboro
were summoned and responded.

works. Considering the lateness at
which the display was worked up
and that only about one hundred
dollars was spent, it was a credit
able affair. despite it seemed to be
managed slowly. This is account
ed for that only one mortar was
available and the firing off of the
explosive was unavoidably delayed
The funds had been collected from
the merchants of Smyrna and Har-
ry P. Jones and George w. Gun
ming was the committee in charge.
Sky rockets and a varied display
was sent up and brought forth
generous applause. Another year
it is planned to start earlier and
have, if possible, a better display.
Smyrna Town Council issued
special permit for this but explo-
sives, generally speaking were pro-
hibited. The result was the small
boy with his shooting crackers,
was not in evidence and if there
were any private display, they
were done outside of town limits.

The school tax for Dover Special
School District this year, has been
fixed at 20 cents on the S1O0 as

20 cents since the bond issue was
arranged for in 1924, when the new

comparison as to how the real es-
tate values have increased in Do
yer and the bounds of the spe 3ial
school district since 1924 and the
gradual decline in the tax rate is
shown by the following: 1921, as

40 cents; 1925, salts 900, tax rate

CATCHES A 7I-POUND BASS
Charles Beckman Adds New World
Record at Chincoteague Recently


Record at Chincoteague Recently
A new worlds record in the talk
ing of channel bass has been estab-
lished in Del-Mar-Va Peninsula
waters at Chincoteague Island, Va.
Charles Beckman, of Brooklyn, n.
Y, 'on Friday, June 20, landed a
channel bass weighing II pounds
which was 54 inches in length, with
a girth of "a inches. The former
record was a bass weighing IS
pounds taken off the New Jersey
coast several years ago. National
attention is directed to Chinco-
league Island as a result of this
remarkable catch. Mr.. Beckman
was fishing with Captain Tom
White, in Koplin's Slough, about
five miles from Chincoteague ISL
and. He was using a ten-ounce
split-bamboo tip 20 surf casting
reel and No. II thread line. His
bate was chunk cut from a
mossbunker. From Mr.. Beckman's s
description of his battel with this
gamy salt water giant it required
thirty-fve minutes to land it. On
returning to the Island the fish was
frozen in a cake of ice and shipped
to New York where it was put on
exhibition in a display window of a
newspaper. Later it viii be turn
ed over to the Museum of Natural
History which institution will have
it mounted and placed on exhibi-
ton. Mr. Beckman is an ardent
angler and has been fishing in
Chincoteague waters for several
years.

Home-Made, but
Ends Bad Cough
In a Hurry

To end stubborn cough quickly, il
is important to soothe and heal the in
famed membranes, get rid of the germs
and also to aid the system inwardly to
help throw of the trouble.
For these purposes, here is a home
made medicine, far better than any
thing you could buy at 8 times the
cost. From any druggist, get 21A ounc-
es of Pinex. Put this into a pint bot
tie, and add plain granulated sugar
syrup or strained honey to fill up the
pint. This takes but moment, and
makes a remedy so effective that you win
never do without, once you have used
it. Keeps perfectly, and children like it.
This simple remedy does three neces-
sary things. 1t loosens the germ-laden
phlegm and soothes away the infiam-
nation. At the same time it is abb
Sorbed into the blood, where it acts de
rectly on the bronchial tubes. This ex-
plains why it brings such quick relief,
even in obstinate bronchial coughs and
stu" coughs.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creosote, in
a refined, palatable form, and known
as one OF the greatest healing agents
for severe coughs, chest colds and
bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex.
II is guaranteed to give prompt relief
or money refunded.
