- Crime News
Why publish crime news?
Assertions have been made by a few World readers
from time to time that too much crime news was carried
on the front page of this newspaper. Objection to this type
of news was based on what these readers said was the po
licy of white dailies. Verv well. Now let ux in rebuttal re
print an excerpt from an article in the current issue of
“Time,” weekly newsmneazine, which describes the lLos
Angeles Times as it celebrates its HOth anniversary:
“The Times' circulation is, of course, a higher
class than Hearst's. The paper gives far more thor
ough news coverage than its competitors, and a few
vears ago claimed to print more news and more adver
tising than any other ncwspaner inthe 1.8 It wonld
like to subordinate news of crime buc 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 Ange
les, the Times 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 multitnde of similar things from which to draw news,
must still play up erime for success.
What, then. can a Negre newsnaper, published where
the Negro in polities is a novelty, withont international tan
g]%s 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, reorettable as it 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 {he ereatest number of its readers.
It is the experience of this newspaper as it is of great dail
lies like The Los Aneoles Times that the greater part of the
bubl}'c wants to read of cr'me, of death, of violence. Such
sterles serve as an outlet to emotions, say psychologists, and
they give readers a vicarious thrill.
Suppose all erime news was eradicated from newspar
ers. How then would the public know there were dare »
o1s criminals afoot in the community? Could »-* ‘hugy
then freely and openly ply their trade on =~ ve unpre
pared by knowledge of their erictire ¢~ mhat them?
Big stories of the neor-c i ‘vye when they do
ey’ oo o el *» headlines and treated ac
cording to their int rest to the greatost number of World
readers. We wish there were more of these and less of
crime, but we cannot print in our news columns what ought
to be. That is left for the editorial page.
Kelly Miller Hits Hawkins For
Praising G.0.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 justifyving the treatment which
the Negro race has received at the
hands of the Republican party. MNr
Hawkins is an unweanable Repub
lican whora his party deolights o
honor. He is a successful busines
man, an eminent churchman. loyal
and devoted t™ 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 ton gond a citizen
and too fine gentleman for the role
of politician which he engazes 1o
play. In addition to his high per
sonal qualities, he is head of the
political organization through
which it is assumed. the Grand
Old Party deals with its slighted
Negro contingent. The Party chest.
properly enough, is subject tn the
overlordship of the party bosses
Dr. Hawkins. then is doubly quali
fied to serve as spokesman and
apologist for his party to his race
It is but fair, then to assume that
he has made the best possible de
fense for his distinguished client
But candor compels the rcader of
his release to conclude that. if thi
Ee the best defense that the Grand
(sld Party can present to justify
o5 treatment of the Negro durin
the last ten years of its tenure, the
case must be indefensible iz nlen
f8 both weak and sne-ious This
child-like simplicity of faith in th»
G. O. P. does not reauire either
argument or proof. Like o sheuwq
attorney, Dr. Hawkins artfully
dodges the gravemen of the No.
gro's grievance against his ancient
political salvator which now has
grown cold and indifferent to its
claim to $olitical and civil equal
ity under the Constitution. Tn o°f
set this, he recites the number of
Negroes on the Governmert pav
roll under the Republican dispen
sation. ] am amazed to the point of
amusement at his utter dupability
o~ disingenuonsness. There are to
w . 94,000 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? 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 emploved under his admin
istration, and left the npumber
practically as it stands today. If 1
chould say that there were four
hundred thousand Negro soldier
on the federal pav roll unde:
Woodrow Wilson, Dr. Hawkin:
would quickly rejoin that these
lappointees were non-nolitiral
Neither are the 54000 civil servies
and sub-civil service cemployves and
soldiers employed under President
Hoover But Dr. Hawkins recites
some thirty odd Presidential ap
pommtess above the Civil Service
These include a municipal judge
and minister to Hayti. conceded tr
the race under Republican an¢
Democratic administrations alike
Indeed he had pressed to swell his
list to respectable proportions that
he included the enlored members
of the Blard of Education of the
District of Columbia. It is indeca
interesting that he seems disposed
to play politics with the public
schools Ordinarily we expect to
keep politics out of education and
religion
But comparisons are odious. We
are told that Woodrow Wilson
took from the race the registership
of the Treasury. an assistant at.
torney generalship, the auditor of
the Navy and the ministershin to
Hayti. But why did he not tell us
that the Republican party has
failed to restore these important
posts after ten years' restoration to
power? Did, Dr. Hawkins forget
that President Wilsen appointed
jcolored men as special assistants
ito the Secretary of War and S»cre
itary of Labor? Did it occur to him
that the last Democratic Pres dent
Jssued over six hundred commis
sions to colored men. a number
wl}i(:h transcends all of the com
missions jssued to Negroes by Re-
P{lblicnn presidents from abrah-m

USELESS TARIFFS
2 ® 0
During the 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
I was taught, and I have since be
lieved, that the manufacturers were
the ones who held that tariffs were
essential to the prosperity of their
business.
* 2 3 ®
With the changing thought of the
iay. the manufacturers now believe
v so the article inferred, that tar
iffs are uscicss. That they serve to
~rpnte waste. That waste creates
refuse. And refuse creates stagna
tion--all of which results in a break
down of economic conditions, leav
ing poverty and ruin in its path.
e -
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?
1 Here are a few ofs the useless
tariffs, in question: 2

is boosted to $50 when tenants of

were not many changes made in

In speaking of education for col

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 ot
the women who were keenly inter
ested in the success of their under
taking, women neatly but plainly
dressed in the greatest uniform
ever worn by any order, 2 gingham
dress, a white apron and a white
cap! No advertising had preceeded
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 1n
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
working to better the standard of
better living in their homes. Their
work displayed the talent that
could be developed to a great de
ares 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 dls-i
play. Suspended from ropes drawn
across the back of the raised plat
form were quilts and these samcl
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-§
ing and basket weaving. |
The exhibit of canned fruits and
vegetables was really beautiful!!
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,
auite an achievement! And &:'
good looking jellies, canned peach¢ |
and pears, and berries; old favo-|
rites were there in showy display.l
The striking fact about this com
munity fair, was the excellence ofi
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 otl
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 Tl a part of the university
system with the same grade of in
struction. Further. we urge that
the sfate 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 professiona’
training, and to pay for tuition
Georgia cannot long remain blind
to this grave injustice, which de
stroys two races—one is preventer
sharing the finer things and op
portunities of life and the other
has its conscience stultified.”

102; MEN DIF
FROM BURNS
MEMPHIS. Tenn, Dec. 8—
Fred Buggs, 23, 423 lL.eath St.,
one of the four Negro employees
injured at the F'sher Body Mill
on North Second Street early
Wednesday morning during a
sawdust 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'tal at 10 o’clock Wednesday
evening. Williams Beaslev and
Joe Givens, were still in a eritical
condition at the General Hospital
There burns are so serious that
attendants are not expecting 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, but a se
cond and more powerful blast took
place between them and the eixt.
Before the fire trucks could arrive
twelve workers had been burned
including four Negroes. Spontun-l
eous conbustion has been named
as the probable cause of the (-x-1
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 Homes” 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!
