Crime News
Why publish (Timo news?
Assertions have boon made by a few World readers
from time to time that too much crime news was carried
on the front paße of this newspaper. Objection to this lyin'
of news was based on what these readers said was the po
licy of white dailies. A cre well. Now let us in rebuttal re
print an excerpt from an article in the current issue of
“Time,” weekly newsnmtmzine. which describes the I.os
Angeles Times as it celebrates its 50th* anniversary:
“The Times’ circulation is, of course, a higher
class than Hearst's. The naner gives far more thor
ough news coverage than its competitors, and a few
years ago claimed to print more news and more adver
tising than any other newspaper in the 1. S It would
like to subordinate news of crime hm has found that
such practice does not pav. In the recent murder case
of Winnie Ruth Judd, who dismembered two women
friends in Tucson. Ariz. and was captured in Los Ang"-
les. the Tinies got and front paged for three days, un
der her signature. Mrs. Judd’s ‘confession.” ’
There you have it. A daily paper in a city of a million
souls, with politics, international affairs, high finance, and
a multitude of similar things from which to draw news,
must still play up crime for success.
What, then, can a Negro newsnaner. published where
the Negro in politics is a novelty, without international tan
gles and giant corporations to deal with, do if it would
exist ?
A newspaper mirrors its community. It is well known
that the number of shootings, stabbings, murders of a size
able Negro community is entirely out of proportion with
its population. These acts, regrettable as if may be, together
with social and church news furnish the bulk of activity to
be chronicled in a Negro newspaper.
It is the policy of The World to print what news is of
the greatest interest to the greatest number of its readers.
It is the experience of this newspaper as it is of great dail
lies like The Los Amr l es T'mes that the greater part of the
publjc wants to read of cr’me, of death, of violence. Such
stories serve as an outlet to ('motions, say psychologists, and
they give readers a vicarious thrill.
Suppose al! crime news was eradicated from newspap
ers. How then would the public know there were d*’”*' -•
o’is criminals afoot in the community? Could " ‘Vigs
then freely and openly ply their trade on ■■ nV unpre
pared by knowledge of their eVst'"' • • mbat them?
Big stories of the no" <'•>■■ -r., when they do
“hr ’*'• ” - -v >■ , headlines and treated ac-
cording to their ii;t rest to the greet 'd number of World
readers. We wish there wot m re of these and less of
crime, but we cannot pr nt in our news columns what ought
to be. That is left for the editorial page.
Kelly Miller Hits Hawkins For
Praising G.O.P. Negro Pay-Roll
By Kelly Miller
On November fifth. Dr. John E.
Hawkins, President of the Nation
al Negro Republican League, is
sued a release setting forth for the
first time the work of the League
and justifying the treatment which
the Negro race has received at the
hands of the Republican party. Mr
Hawkins is an unweanable Reni:*'
lican whom his party d^li'CC 1.
honor. He is a successful businc/s
man. an eminent churchman, loyal
and devoted ft) his race keenly
alive to civic duty and responsibil
ity. and withal, a splendid gentle
man of integrity, dignity and hon
or. Indeed he is too good a citizen
and too fine gentleman for the r-"’e
of politician which he engages ‘o
play. In addition to his high per
sonal qualities, he is head of the
political organization through
which it is assumed, the G r and
Old Party deals with its slighted
Negro contingent. The Party chest,
properly enough, is subject to the
overlordship of the partv bosses
Dr. Hawkins, then is doubly quali
fied to serve as spokesman at d
apologist for his party to his r: : o
It is but fair, then to assume that
he has made the best possible de
fense for his distinguished client
But candor compels the reader of
his release to conclude that, if th
be the best defense that th? Grand
Gid Party can present to justify
,h treatment of the Negro during
the last ten year' of its tenure. th n
case must be indefensible His nh a
is both weak and sne-Ho-i'. Th:”
child-like simplicity of faith in th?
G. O. P. does not reouire e her
argument or proof. Like a shev-d
attorney. Dr. Hawkins artfully
dodges the gravemen of the Ne
gro’s grievance against his ancient
political salvator which now has
grown cold and indifferent to its
claim to political and civil equal
ity under the Cbnst’tut'on. To c"
set this, he recites the number of
Negroes on the Government pay
roll under the Republican dispen
sation. I am amazed to the point of
amusement at his utter dupability
c- disineenuosness. There are to
„• 54,000 Negroes, including sol-
diers in the Army, on the govern
ment pay roll, he tells us. drawing
69.000,000 from the federal trea
sury. But why not tell the whole
story 9 These fall mainly in the
lowest bracket of service and pay.
and are wholly without polilical
significance. President Wilson
doubled the number of Negroes he
found employed under his admin
istration, and left the number
practically as it stands today. If J
hould say that there were four
hundred thousand Negro soldier’
ci", the federal pav roll undo-

would quickly rejoin that those
appointees were non-political

These include a municipal judge

Indeed he had pressed to swell his
list to respectable proportions that
he included the colored membe-s

'hat the Republican party las
failed to restore these important
pos’s after ten years’ restoration to
power? Did. Dr. Hawkins forget
that President Wilson appointed
.colored men as special assistants
,to the Secretary of War and S 'c-e
-tary of Labor?' Did it occur to h : m
that the last Democratic Pres.dent
issued over six hundred commis

USELESS TARIFFS
•• • *
During tlie week I was reading
an exhaustive dissertation, in a late
issue of a technical manufacturer's
magazine, on the uselessness of tar
iffs in general. In my school days
1 was taught, and I have since be
lieved, that the manufacturers were
tb.e ones who held that tariffs were
essential to the prosperity of their
business.
*« ♦ •
With the changing thought of the
day. the manufacturers now believe

iffs are useless That they serve to
■’•ente waste That waste creates
refuse And refuse creates stagna

down of economic conditions, leav
ing poverty and ruin in its path.
*♦ * ♦
If the white economists are be
coming so alarmed over a condition
of their own creation, the thought
arose, what would they do and how
would they feel, if they were forced
to buck a tariff, so high, and so
useless, that confronts the average
colored man or woman in America?
Here are a few of the useless
tariffs, in question:
A house normally renting for $4O
is boosted to $5O when tenants of
color take possession .
A property is sold to a colored
citizen, witn an inflated value al
ready placed upon it and then the
colored property owner is forced
to spend additional funds in estab

true that even the so-called tariffs
for protection are useless and
wasteful, how much more so when!
the tariffs are enforced, through I
legislation and custom, not for pro- ;
tection or recenue, but through ig- i
norance and prejudice .
When the question of tariffs
comes up we should be more vitally
interested than any other class of
American citizens for we pay a
higher tariff, within, than do those
on the outside of America’s con
fines.
t-in order that our state may not bo
bankrupted. Upon the same prin
ciple the ballot should show no

a necessity in things economical,
the other is more so in things
moral. We urge, therefore, that
our white statesmen revamp their
views, and so far from the idea of
preventing Negroes voting. th°v
should insist upon all men voting."
In speaking of education for col
ored people the report reads:
We are very gravely concerned
over the educational facilities in

A Rural Neighborhood Fair
By LIDA DAVIS JONES
As refreshing as the discovery of
wild violets on a woodland patn
in early Spring was the happy sur
prise recently, in passing, a little
wayside church hidden in the deep
woods close to the country road
that made it accessible. Within was
being held a community fair among
the colored women who have been
aroused to the work being done
among them by the efficient coun
ty demonstrator, Minnie Bowick
Welcomed at the door by two of
!he women who were keenly inter
ested in the success of their under
taking, women neatly but plainly
dressed in the greatest uniform
ov’cr worn. h>y any order, a
dress, a white apron and a white
caii! No advertising had proceeded
this undertaking, no publicity, no
news items telling of the time and
the place of this exhibit of the work
done by the women and girls in
their homes as the result of the
movement for better homes among
the colored people of our country.
But with a great faith and courage
they had planned and arranged the
display of their domestic work,
their sewing, rug making, quilting,
cooking and canning and preserve
making. Plain little church, hard
' wooden benches, and kerosene
lamps! But this was only the set
ting for the spirit of cooperation
of the women with their demon
strator. who are ambitious and hard
’vorkine to better the standard of
better living in their homes. Their
work displayed the talent that
could be developed to a great de
gres among many of these quiet
home makers. It showed how inter
ested they were in things of beauty
and in the betterment of living
conditions in their homes. The
church was attractive with its dis
play. Suspended from ropes drawn
across the back of the raised plat
form were quilts and these same
quilts had blue ribbons pinned to
them, won at the State Fair and
they hung like a picturesque stage
curtain. There were rugs, curtains
made of flour sacks and died with
clay! There were sofa pillows, and,
much embroidery on table covers
and plain underwear, also crochet-j
ing and basket weaving.
The exhibit of canned fruits and
vegetables was really beautiful! J
Rare like flowers. Think of small!
pods of okgra so arranged in the jar
before canning, that it looked like
a geometrical problem. Tender
green string beans placed full
length around the sides of the jar
filling it to the top, so that it look
ed like a coil of green ribbon!
Young corn on the cob was success
fully canned, also meat of chicken, j
ouito an achievement! And the
good looking jellies, canned peaclfts
and pears, and berries: old favo
rites were there in showy display.
The striking fact about this com
munity fair, was the excellence of
the work. Canned-fruits and vege
tables were so neatly done that
they appeared to be some new kind
of jewel imprisoned within.
But the arresting impression of
in the state of Georgia, while
denying the same grade of school
by the authorities of the state.
That it is committed to a policy
that destroys the life of the minor
ity is nothing less than criminal
Plan justice would demand an
immediate remedy, and the plac
ing of the Negro college upon par.
or make n a part of the university
system with the same grade of in
struction. Further, we urge that
the slate add to the state college
for Negroes the department of
medicine and law. Every Negro
doctor in the state was forced to
leave his state for p-ofessiona'
training, and to pay for tuition
Georgia cannot long remain blind
to this grave injustice, which de
stroys two races—one is p'ev"nter
sharing the finer things and op
portunities of life and the othe
has its conscience stultified."

FROM BORNS
MEMPHIS. Tenn,. Dec 8 —
Fred Buggs, 23, 423 Leath St .
one of the four Negro employees
injured at the I’’slier Body Mill
on North Second Street earjy
Wednesday morning during a
sawdu t magazine explosion died
the same evening at the General
Hospital at six o’clock- James
Adams, 33, white, was a second
casualty He died at the Baptist
Hosp tai at 10 o’clock Wednesday
evening. Williams Beaslev and
Joe Givens, were still in a critical
condition at the General Hospital !
There burns are so serious that
attendants are not expect’ng them
to pull through.
The double eplosion that broke
out at the mill, and trapped twelve
men between two blazes of fire
still remains a mvstery. The first
explosion was sufficient to arouse
the workers to the danger they
were confronting, and they began
a scramble for safety, hut a se
cond and more powerful blast took
place between them and the eixt-
Before the fire trucks could arr ve
twelve workers had been burned
including four Negroes. Spontan
eous conbustion has been named
as the probable cause of the ex
plosion. Damage caused by the
explosion has been estimated at
25.000 dollars.
Oats & Sons Funeral Home has
charge of Bugg’s body. He leaves
a widow, Mrs. Ollea Lee Bugg ,
this neighborhood home exhibit
was the fact of the interest that
is being aroused in the rural homes
of the colored people by the work
and more excellence among her
own people.
Under the heading "Better Health
Better Hornes" 85 club women ana
girls made special eforts to improve
their kitchens and bedrooms. Such
articles as kitchen stools, elevated
wood boxes an dworking surfaces
were some of the labor and time
saving devices.
They do nice plain sewing, and
some are very expert with their
needles. They are taught the value
of the budget system, and are en
couraged to have an all-year-round
garden; to keep one good cow, and
raise chickens.
The work of the demonstrator
seems very important when one
considers that it is done in rural
districts, within the county, and
among very busy women, whose
work includes every phase of home
making; rearing of children, car
ing for them when they are sick,
never being very near to a drug
store or a doctor, making the re
sponsibility all the greater on the
parents.
But by patient planning this de
monstrator arranges for a meeting
at a centrally located home, and
with the neighbors gathered a
round her, she instructs them in
the branches of their work. There
are talks on child nursing, care of
the home, preparation of food, les
sons in sewing and many other
helpful suggestions and lessons,
they may wish.
There are fairs once a year, and
prizes are given to stimulate in
terest and work. Ben Hill won first
prize for kitchen improvement this
year. The county work includes 18
schools, and no work is of more
importance than this being so well
done among the colored people of
the rural districts.
All success to them!
