STATEMENT OF ILLINOIS
EXPOSITION COMMISSION.
Organization Headed by Bishop Samuel
Fallows Explains Its Position.
Chicago.—A letter intended to clear
up the confusion which has arisen be
cause there are two organizations in
the field which plan to celebrate the
semicentennial of the freedom of the
Negro in the United States has been
issued by the commission duly ap
pointed by the governor of Illinois,
which is in part as follows:
Whereas, A voluntary association of In
dividuals has Deen organized under the
title of "National Negro Semicentennial
Exposition association." and.
Whereas, This association lias been con
founded In the minds of many with the
Illinois commission national half century
anniversary of Negro freedom, appointed
by his excellency Governor Dunne by vir
tue of an ad of the gen«fral assembly of
the state of Illinois, and.
Whereas. The names of prominent citi
zens* of Chicago who are honorary vice
presidents and rr.o nbrrs of the advisory
council of the commission appointed by
the governor are being used by the vol
untary association: therefore be it
Resolved by the Illinois commission na
tional half century anniversary of Negro
freedom that, in view of the foregoing
facts, we ;loem it to be imperative to noti
fy the pub!.'- that the last named title is
the only commission authorized by Gov
ernor Dunne under the sanction of the
general assembly of Illinois to arrange for
an anniversary of Negro freedom.
We take this action so that the work of
the only authorized state commission may
not be confused with that of persons act
ing in a private and not'in a governmental
capacity.
Signed in behalf of the commission:

Anderson Ends Tour of Pennsylvania.
Managing Editor James 11. Ander
son of the Amsterdam News. Now
York city, concluded a very profitable
business trip through Pennsylvania
Dec. 1. Mr. Anderson was much Im
pressed with the progress which the
race is making in the cities and towns
which he visited. lie was also much
encouraged l»y what he saw of the*ed
ucational and religious uplift among
the young people.
Try Segregation by Elimination.
The presence of white men as bar
bers in tiie shops of tin* house of rep
resentatives in Washington is new and
very strange to the old patrons. Un
til recently colored men had been em
ployed in-the shops of the house for
the past fifty years. It is quite sig
nificant that where the operators of
the present program of race segrega
tion in Washington cannot segregate
they eliminate.

Springfield, 111.—Tlie Freedmen’s Aid
society of the Methodist Epis opal
church, which has twenty-two schools
in the south, has issued the annual
statement of its work. The general
committee, which is made up of the
bishops of the church and a commit

I. OAKLAND PENN.
tbe period from July 1. 1912. to July 1.
1913. was reported through the. <■
sponding secretaries?. l£rs.Mn
veetv and I. Garland Penn. ™ was
the best report the society 1 ** over
hnd in its history. This made possi
ble the best meeting the gem- 1 com
mittee ever held. Some of t!ic out
standing faefc of progress f ni the
report are as follows:
For the year 1911-12 tbe receipts
from all sources amounted to $399.-
363.22. For the year 1912-I.'' receipt*
from all sources were $493,bT-\39, an
increase of $93,679.17 over the previous
year. The society closed t o year
-191- $21,140.21 in debt The year
1912- showed a balance on ti • credit
side of the ledger of $2,137.17 Of the
total of 5399.303.22 received*!: 1011-12
the conference collections and special
gifts amounted to $133,400.79 Of the
total, $493,042.39 in 1912-13. the con
ference collections and spe- '.i 1 gifts
nmounted to $159,270.32, an increase
over the previous year of $25,^09.53.
Tbe record of the colored conferences
for the year 1912-13 was rem rknble.
The conferences are twenty In num
ber. with 300.000 members. They gave
$48,000 from July 1. 1912. t-- .Toly 1.
1913. This Is an increase «.f $15,000
over anything the colored people in
the church have ever given. The
Jubilee of the Freed men’s Aid society,
in which the colored people arc to give
SIOO,OOO and the white p<**#plc of tile
church $400,000. began Jan. 1, 1913.
Secretary Pmin reported that $30,000
in eash had been received of tbe SIOO.-
000 to be raised by the colored people,
with only two of tin* twenty colored
conferences having met from which
full reports could be received. When
this report was made, showing the
marvelous work accomplished by the
colored people, it so pleased the com
mittee that in less t hun two hours %* r *
Ing the session, under the leadership
of Bishop Henderson, the individual
members of the committee raised *31,-
000 among themselves.
Bishop Wilbur I*. Thirkleld gave
SIO,OOO, and seventeen others under
wrote SI,OOO each. Definite plans were
also launched for *!?<• semirirg* of tto**
$400,000 jubilee fund from the white
conferences of the church, while Sec
retary Penn gave out the plans that
are under way toward securing the
balance of the SIOO,OOO to be raised by
the colored people. Much of this $70.-
000 will come in during the winter
and spring as the eighteen colored con
ferences meet.
I. Garland Penn, one of the corre
sponding secretaries of the society, has
devoted himself diligently to bringing
up the record in the twenty colored
conferences, and lie bus succeeded far
beydpd anything ever accomplished.
His idea was to stimulate anew the
philanthropy of the white people In
Methodism by. trying to get Mio colored
people to do larger tilings in the wdy
of giving. The pledging of the $31,000
by the members of the general com
mittee to match the ,$30,000 raised by
the colored people proves the wisdom
of his course. It was significant that
this recent record breaking meeting of
the society was held in the honio town
of Abraham Lincoln and the DiftCftOf
bis burial. •
