THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE WHITE PROPAGANDA ROBS NEGRO PUGILIST OF HEAVY WEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP OF ALL EUROPEAN COUNTRIES Vol. 36. No. 40. PARIS, Dec. 20.—(Crusader Service) Now it turns out that even the offense which served the French Boxing Commission and its Governmental string pullers as an excuse for depriving Siki of his title and his livelihood was never committed by Siki, according to the referee whom Siki was alleged to have assaulted. Deputy Ybarnegaray, who he be come interested in the affair, visited Ferdinand Cuny, the boxing promoter whom Siki was alleged to have as saulted after the Balzac Prunier fight. "Were you struck by Siki?" the Deputy asked. Cuny replied in the negative, whereupon M. Ybarnegaray asked the promoter whether he had made a complaint against Siki. M. Cuny gain replied in the negative. REPUBLICANS ABANDON DYER BILL JAMES WELDON JOHNSON TELLS OF REPUBLICAN ABANDONMENT OF DYER ANTI-LYNCHING BILL. James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peoples, on his return to New York from Washington, made the following statement on the abandonment of the Dyer Bill by the Republican Party: The fight for the enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was abandoned by the Republican majority on Monday, December 4, in the last hours of the extra session of Congress. The Bill had been called up for consideration on Tuesday, November 28. It immediately became the object of a filibuster on the part of Southern Democrats, which was the most naked and brutal exhibition of its kind ever made in the Senate. A filibuster is generally carried on under some sort of disguise, but Senator Underwood, of Alabama, the Democratic leader, stated plainly that the bill of the filibuster was to present any consideration whatsoever of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, and that the Democratic side would not allow any government business whatever to be carried on until the Republicans agreed to abandon the Bill not only during the extra session but even during the short session. The lilbuster was carried on from Tuesday through Saturday, December 2, during which time the Southern Democrats would not even allow the adoption of the record of the Senate's proceedings. Finally, on Saturday night a caucus of Republican Senators was held which was largely attended and the question of the abandonment of the Bill was discussed hotly. The Senate was then attended at the caucus dwindled until there were some twenty two or twenty three Senators left. A vote was then taken and the majority agreed to abandon the Bill. There were nine Senators who voted to keep up the fight until the 4th of March, if necessary. Among these was Senator Shofridge who has charge of the Bill and who led the fight on the floor. Before the Republican caucus, the Secretary conferred with Senators Lodge, Curtis and Watson, the three men holding the fate of the Bill in their hands, urging them not to surrender on the terms laid down by the Democrats, the lilbuster-era be not dropped in the Special Session but dropped as well for the entire term of the Sixty-seventh Congress. Immediately after publication in the newspapers of the outcome of the cancus, the Secretary telegraphed to these three Senators inquiring if he had not received their promise that the Bill would not be abandoned on Senator Undwood's terms. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, who was elected by the colored voters of his State on the sole issue of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, denied by letter ever having made such a promise to the Secretary. It was Senator Lodge who announced in the Senate, on the morning of December 4, the Republican Party's abject surrender. The colored people will not be deceived by appearances. They can see and they know the actual fight was made, by the Southern Democrats against the Bill rather than by the Republicans in its behalf. The Southern Democrats roared like a lion and the Republicans lay down like a scared "possum. The efforts of Senator Shortridge were sincere and earnest, but outside of the support he received from Senator Willis, Senators New and Edge, not a Republican senator opened his mouth in actual support. A few senators, including Senators Pepper nad Reed of Pennsylvania, McNary, Capper and Gooding, expressed their willingness to keep up the fight until the necessary, but the mass of Republican Senators displayed no particular interest in the Bill. It is this attitude that the colored people will especially present, perhaps even more than the failure of the Bill to be passed. If the Republican senatorial leaders think the Negro will be satisfied merely because they allowed the Southern Democrats to "put themselves on recourse" they are mistaken. The Republ selves on record. This they failed to do. The unsuccessful fight to have the Dyer Bill enacted into law at this time is not, however, without its fruits. First of all, lynching as a national shame and the facts about lynching have been put before the American people. In fact, lynching has been made not only a national but an international issue and such a question cannot die until it is rightly settled once or all. Second, the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill became the center of concerted mass action by colored people such as has never before taken place in the United States. Colored voters defeated, on this issue alone, three men who voted against it in the House of Representatives, one in Delaware, one in New Jersey, and one in Wisconsin. So doing, colored people have become conscious of their political power. Third, colored voters have gone a great step toward political appreciation from allegiance on historical grounds to any one party. The fate of the Dyer Bill, coming as a culmination of a series of disappointments under the present administration, completely rids the Negro of the old idea that he must now, henceforth and forevermore vote the Republican ticket merely for historic reasons. For the Advancement of Colored People has no intention of lessening its efforts to abolish lynching in the United States of America. Indeed, we have just begun to fight.

(Crusader Service) That Negro Harlem's night population is totally different from the daylight population, has long been evident to careful observers, but was publicly revealed yesterday when 35 white men and women were arrested in a raid on "Shuffles Inn" and were held in $500 bail each for termination by digester McQuade in the Washington Houses Court. The usual custom in such cases is to discharge the prisoners with a reprimand, but digester McQuade injected, the race question into a moral question and told the prisoners there were sufficient white cabarets for white folk to visit without going to places maintained by Negroes. He remanded them all and they were led downstairs to wait the appearance of friends with the necessary bail. The prisoners consisted of twenty-nine women between the ages of 18 and 22 and fifty-four men, inspector Sweeney, who conducted the raid, told the Magistrate that the raid was the result of numerous complaints from parents that their daughters were visiting the cabaret, and that when the place was raided, some of the prisoners were indulging in improper dances, others were sitting on men's laps and loud and improper language was being used. SECRET U. S. REPORT HIT FRENCH IN SYRIA NEW YORK, Dec. 20—(Crusader Service) The suppressed Crane-King report on Near Eastern mardates has been published, and reveals that the American Commission strongly advised against giving France a mandate for Syria. "The feeling of the Arabs is particularly strong against the French," the report said, "and there is grave reason to believe the attempt to enforce a French mandate would precipitate war" between the Arabs and the French. The confidential appendix tells how officials of the occupying government interfered with the commission's work, also details the arguments for all sides given the commission by its interview. The confidential report puts even more strongly the commission's feeling that France should get the mandate for Syria. But less the above be taken as evidence of America's altruistic attitude let it be noted that the commission wanted the mandate for America itself. SPANISH CABINET OUT IN MORROCO FLURRY MADRID, Dec. 20.—(Crusader Service) Premier Sanchez-Guerra presented the resignation of his Ministry today for the second time in four days, the crisis growing out of the continued endeavors to place responsibility for the Spanish disaster in Morocco in July, 1921, when the Moroccan tribesmen inflicted severe defeats upon the Dona. A PAPER WITH A HEART AND SOUL LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, DECEMBER 23, 1922 NEGRO FRANCHISE URGED ON HARDING NEGRO FRANCHISE URGED ON HARDING. Republican Administration Reminded It Has Power To Protest Negro Voting Right. WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.—(Crusader Service) Representative George H. Tinkham of Massachusetts in a letter to President Harding, written yesterday, has suggested that the failure to enforce the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution was just as harslant as the current failure to enforce the Eightth Amendment. He suggested that the President should not overlook the failure to enforce the Fourteenth Amendment, which guarantees the Negro the right to vote, if he should comment upon the failures to enforce prohibition in his address to the next session of Congress. Representative Tinkham's letter to the President follows: Ion Warren C. Harding. The White House. Washington, D. C. My dear Mr. President: It has been stated that in your address to be made at the opening of the Fourth session of the Sixty-seventh Congress it is your intention to refer to the widespread disrespect for law as exemplified by the unparalleled defiance of the Federal Statutes to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution and its anarchistic and revolutionary consequences. There can be no descent from its necessity. You will agree that all parts of the Constitution should be enforced equally and impartially and in no part nullified. With the greatest respect may I draw your attention or the fact that whereas the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution is permissive in its authorization of Congress, to pass legislation to enforce it the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which commands Congress to reduce representation in proportion to distranchisement is mandatory and prescriptive and is now scandalously and completely unenforced and nullified. With the greatest respect may I also draw your attention to the fact that with the flagrant and widespread distranchisement established by a mass of indisputable evidence now before Congress and by a common knowledge and the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution unenforced, the very tenure of office you hold and the representation of the lower House of Congress is tainted with unconstitutionality. Unconstitutional tenure of office and illegal elections strike at the very heart of the moral sanctions behind laws and executive acts. Public authority, before demanding obedience, must itself obey. There can be no degree in faithlessness to the Constitution and its requirements, but if there were, surely the moral turpitude of a constitutional mandate which involves the purity of elections and constitutional organization of Government is as great as the violation of the Federal Statutes concerning the consumption of alcoholic beverages. May I, with the greatest respect and sincere hope that I transgress no propriety, suggest that in your address to the Congress you draw its attention to its present unconstitutional composition and its own legal and constitutional obligations. I have the honor to be, my dear Mr. President. Your obedient servant. GEORGE HOLDEN TIKHAM. SEES CIVILIZATION RUINED WITHOUT EQUITY TO LABOR NEW YORK, Dec. 20 — (Crusader Service) A new type of industrial leadership is needed if the present thing that passes for civilization is to endure, said Dean Dexter S. Kimball of Cornell University in an address at the annual meeting of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers last night. "Unless we can change our industrial system more nearly to attain universal well-being and distribute the fruits of industry more equitably, we have no reason for believing our civilization shall endure," Dean Kimball. Engineers, he said, are rapidly being forced into the role of industrial managers. The facts as to the car's true condition is layed before an appraisal, necessary repairs are allowed and correct prices quoted. This has done more than any one thing else to regain the confidence of the public. Today used cars have value. Dealers are finding it less difficult to make new sales since they have cleaned house and sell used cars with a guard antee. NOAH D. THOMPSON ON THE RACE IN JAPANESE LEADING JOURNAL HOUSE IS ENAM EDYER BILL HEY! HIRAM REPUBLIC DEMOCRATE SHORTRIDGE A POLITICAL LYNCHING BEE. COPY OF JAPANESE EDITOR'S NOTE IN THE JAPANESE DAILY NEWS CHRISTMAS EDITION. EDITION'S NOTE: Mr. Thompson is on the editorial staff of the Los Angeles Evening Express, oldest daily paper on the Pacific coast. Many of Mr. Thompson's articles on the acti- vities of his people, have been re- printed in this paper and other for- eign magazine paper. During the HOUSE HEY! HIRAM! SENATOR HOUR-TRIDOR A POLITICAL L World war. Mr. Thompson served the United States government as a Four minute speaker. His honorable discharge, at the end of the war, was accompanied with a letter of commendation from President Woodrow Wilson. As the result of Mr. Thompson's persistence in keeping the record of the progress of his people before the public, the owners of The Express have recently adopted the policy of using the capital "N" when referring to the Negro in its items. The same paper has also taboed the use of such words as coon, nigger, shine and darkey when referring to a member of the group of American citizens to which Thompson belongs. Before coming to Los Angeles, eleven years ango, Mr. Thompson was associated with the great Negro Educator, Booker T. Washington in his educational work among Negroes in the southern states of America. THE NEGRO AND WHAT THE JAR By Noah D. Thompson. Two books, just off the press, are two books that are more interested in American history and the part played therein by the group SEXUAL DYER BILL LYNCHING BEE. of American citizens designated as the Negro. The first and more important of the two volumes is the NEGRO YEAR BOOK, 1921-22 edition, an Encyclopedia of the Negro by Monroe N. Work, director of the department of Records and Research of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, the school that was founded thirty-two years ago by the world famous educator, Bopker T. Washington. Mr. Work is a member of the American Socialological Society, the Southern Sociological Congress, National Council, the National Economic League and every other organisation that makes a serious study of sociology. The University of Chicago gave him Drama, Gamut A the A.M. and Ph.D. degrees in 1902. Since taking charge of the records and research work in 1908 at Tuskegee, Mr. Work has contributed many valuable articles on Negro education at work to most, if not all, of the standard periodicals published in America. The 1921-22 Negro Year Book is the sixth edition, published, annually, by the Negro Year Book Company, at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, where all data relative to the Negro is collected, carefully edited, compiled and published for the benefit of all who are interested in America's so-called Negro problem. Special reference to lynchings, race riots migrations. The Negro in Politics, Race relations and interracial Cooperation is made by the editor whose researches have been both thorough and unrelenting for more than twenty years. Considerable space is devoted also to the African and what he wants at his home in Africa, together with maps and charts showing the territorial changes and distributions according to existing mandates. This subject is discussed in a way that all who consult the book will conclude that the Negro now realizes that he belongs to an important group factor in America and other countries, that must be reconciled in the, yet to be settled, World peace plans. Never before has a more extensive down to the minute bibliography on the Negro been published and the book is so arranged and indexed as to make it indispensable to all who would mark the wonderful progress of America's former slaves and their dependents who, within the past sixty years, have acquired 22,000,000 acres of good land; 600,000 good substantial homes and 45,000 churches. Begins the American Negro operate 78 banks, 100 insurance companies and 70,000 other business enterprises with a capital amounting to $150,000,000. Meanwhile his illiteracy, through school and college attendance, has been reduced to less than 27 per cent. According to the United States Bureau of Census, the center of Negro population, numbering about 12,000,000 in 1920, was located in Dade county situated in the northeastern part of the state of Florida. The NEGRO IN CHICAGO' a book setting forth the Negro' trials, tribulations and antigions in order to feel the "pulse" of this group of loyal citizens of America which is scattered to all parts of the United States. The, "Race riot" in Chicago, July 1929, was of importance, grave enough to cause Governor Frank O. Lowden to create a special commission on "Race Relations" for the purpose of studying the cause and effect of the riot and to make recommendations that would, in a measure, better conditions and enable the two groups, Negroes and whites, to live and work together amicably. The Commission, composed of six Negroes and six whites, representing the highest type of manhood, required three years of experience in the task. The result of the commission's findings together with its recommendations have been printed in book form with the title of "The Negro in Chicago," published by the University of Chicago Press, Chicago, Illinois. Containing 650 pages of well edited material on the race problem in general and the Chicago Negro problem in particular, the book makes revelations and suggestions for avoidance of future conflicts that will undoubtedly prove of great interest and help to all who wish to study America's race problem earnestly and help adjust mitters satisfactorily. Photographs of the riot scenes, chart and maps are used liberally by the publishers who, with the commission members, feel that to solve the race problem in Chicago, means, in a large measure, to solve the problem in all other parts of the United States. A foreword by Gov. Lowen, who appointed the nation, declares first that "There is no domestic problem. America which has given men more concern with the problem of the relations between the white and Negro races." "In earlier days" says the Governor, "the colonization of the Negroes in Liberia, was put forward as a solution. That idea was abandoned long ago. It is now recognized generally that the two races are here in America to stay." Recommending that a permanent Commission on Race-Relations be created, the Governor furthers avers that "as soon as the commission was appointed, conditions be between the races began to improve." To the Japanese in America and Japan, perhaps the best known member of the commission is Julius N. Rosenwald, Jewish merchant and philanthropist who has contributed $252,000 toward Young Men's Christian Association buildings for Negroes in fifteen cities and for $1,000,000 toward rural schools for Negroes in rural southern states. Mr. Rosenwald learned to appreciate the good qualities of the Negro and his economic value through his close association with Booker T. Washington as a member o the board of Trustees of Tuskgrae Institute. He is also a member of the boards of trustees for the University of Chicago and the Rockefeller Foundation. SECTION 3—Page 1 The Negro members on the Commission are: Robert S. Abbott, owner and Editor of the Chicago Defender, a weekly paper with over a million readers, George Cleveland Hall, nationally known physician and surgeon, George H. Jackson, capitalist and former member of the Opio state legislature, Edward H. Morris, internationally known lawyer and member of the Illinois State Constitutional Convention, Adelbert H. Roberts, noted orator and member of Illinois General Assembly, and Lacey K. Williams, head of the largest Negro protestant organization in America. These Negroes command the highest respect of every white man with whom they come in contact and Negroes everywhere will feel assured that their interests have been well cared for in the Commission's report and recommendations. Every thoulful Negro will use his efforts to have copies of "The Negro Year Book" and "The Negro in Chicago" placed in every public, private and school library for the edification of present and future statesmen who now and will, in a short period of time, guide the destinies of this and other countries. Cast Thy Bread Upon The Waters Bv: JAS LLOYD "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have the trees but the son of man hath not where to lay his head." He soon to arm with Dick Benden. He dawned on the little squarros which twisted and chirped as they hopped about on the cobblestones and in the parks, though he knew full well that they were infinitely more worthy of the free air than himself, for he realized that hard work must be his compensation for the indolent life in which he had been so artfully persuaded to indulge in so freely, and as his inexperience in manual training benitted him for only the poor, paid and menial positions of a common laborer he soon found himself seeking the positions which others refused and was obliged to seek the lowly quarters of the city, where he had wandered to, for a residence, which consequently threw him in contact with a class of people with whom he had never associated before, his low working men, and, from these newly made friends and acquaintances he soon learned that he had nothing to regret in absolving himself from indigestion with the loathsome ones who had formerly claimed him as their victim. Freed from the wine cup and dissipation, none of his former associates would have been able to recognize the former weakling a few months later, who was now developing into a robust man! Foot loose and fancy free, happy go lucky chap, he soon realized that his early life, as well as his fortune of which he could have made such good use, had virtually been thrown to the winds a nhas dafle winds as a handful of chaf and regarding it as such he thoroughly determined to book the book, which created that chapter of his life, and open a new book. Lost in deep meditation he stood, early Autumn morning with his eager savings in his pocket, upon the dock in San Francisco, where he had been working all night, helping to load one of the great libers bound for the Orient. He recalled to mind how only the previous evening, as he passed along Broadway on his way home with his working clothes on, how icily he was informed that he had "made a mistake" when he extended his hand to a certain Miss Beachley as she sat in her beautiful limousine by the curb, and the evening when it snowed so hard, last winter, how comfortable! how beautiful and stunning! Miss Gelfinder looked as she passed into the theatre on the other fellow arm, her fair neck encircled with beautiful furs which had only trifle in the way of an arm few weeks before from one week as an honest workman and carried his daily bread by the sweet of his brown. should be hard to say that she had the remotest intention of recognizing him as a former acquaintance and associate from the indigestant manner in which she tilted her nose but him as she thought she caught the launtest suspicion of an intention on his part to speak to her, as he lifted his hat to her as he passed with his lunch basket under his arm, without any overcoat to protect his body from the chill wintry breeze. "The very audacity of some of those uncouth working men!" He seemed to be in a World all by himself. A World which fairly trembled beneath him and bade him shake its dust from off his feet. A community from which he was only 6 too happy to free him at As he stood thus meditating with clenched fists and steel-set jaw, the hissing of steam from the giant liner's great winches and the rumbling of chains, the grooming of haws.

One of the most widely heralded of this season's photoplay is announced as coming Sunday, December 17th to Loew's State Theatre. It is "Quincy Adams Sawyer," a Metro-SL picture based on the famous story of New England life which was a phenomenal "best seller" when it appeared a decade or so ago. So great was the popularity of the printed narrative by Charles Felton Pidgin that it was dramatised, and in this form it won more favor. The elaborate photo-play version is even more interesting than the book or the play. Everybody knows the story of "Quincy Adams Sawyer." Everybody knows and loves its quaint and rustic characters. The story of the young lawyer from Boston, Quincy Adama Sawyer; his coming to the small town of Mason's Corner; his experiences in running down a dishonorable scoundrel; his great love affair—all of this is part of the attractive novel which is now a screen play. The delightful rural characters are fun provoking to the extreme, and the fresh, clean, humor will appeal to all lovers of better photoplays. A lavish production has been given this famous story. To enact the roles in the picture, the entire motion picture industry was searched for its best material. As a result, one of the highest-priced assemblies of talent is seen, and in the list are players who have been starred in their own right. Among the more important are Blanch Sweet, Lon Chaney, Barbara LaMarr, John Bowers, Elmo Lincoln, Louise Fazenda, June Elvide, Hank Mann, Zazu Pitts and many others. Rex Ingram's production for Metro "Trifling Women" is now playing a second week at the popular Seventh and Broadway playhouse. The presentation of this director's latest offering is greatly enhanced by Ernest Blicher's "Ballet Batik." THATBAKING COMPANY That our baking institutions are due a complete revolution was graphically depicted by Prof. Short, an expert in baking technology, in an illustrated lecture at the Bake-Rite headquarters in the Washington building last Saturday afternoon. This progressive corporation has entered the commercial field with other motives than those of material gain or sinister purposes; it is out to promote the health and happiness of the race and to insure longevity of human life. The Bake-Rite products as explained by Prof. Short consist of some twenty-three blends of scientifically prepared flour, mixed with all the ingredients and ready for use. These various blends of flour comprise Graham muffins. Bran muffins, gold cake, pound cake, pan cake flour, and all kinds of flour products used by the up-to-date housewife. The lecture was replete with illustrations which very plainly demonstrated the superiority of the new or Bake-Rite method of milling and making flour into every kind of bread and pastry, over the old and antiquated methods. The whole discourse of Prof Short from beginning to end revealed the speaker to be a man eminently equipped for the task at hand and left no doubts in the minds of his hearers of the complete and wonderful revolution to be wrought in the baking business. One of the most interesting features of the 3. lecture was the portion which illustrated the operations of the automatic doughnut machine. This wonderful instrument can be operated by a single individual and produces as many doughnuts per day as five bakers. Another feature of the Bake-Rite products is the preparation of the doughnut dough, which is put in tins fully prepared for cooking and has been kept in a perfect state for a period of fourteen months. Pie crust is also prepared in the same manner. In fact every variety of bread, muffins, cereals and pastry is produced by the Bake-Rite corporation with their new and up-to-date methods. The most noticeable feature of the Bake-Rite method as depicted by the illustrations and portrayed by the speaker was the cleanliness and care with which the blends bread and pastry were prepared. In short the Bake-Rite method relieves all cooking from the dirt of the ally and dampness of the cellar and places everything on the main floor in full view in the wholesomeness of the light of day. To say the least the lecture was a rich treat and revealed some of the wonders which modern science has accomplished in the interest of pure and healthful breads and cereals. With the illustrations of Saturday still fresh in our minds we can easily see a decided triumph of Bake-Rite methods over those of yearage ago. NEW YORK BANKER BACKING REACTION KLAN; NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—(Crusader Service) That one of the capitalist backers of that Reactionary champion of conservatism and 100 per cent Americanism, the Itamous Klu Klan, is a New York banker is the startling revelation made here by the New York World, which in its issue of Dec. 10, presents photographic evidence that J. W. Wupperman, banker and vice president and secretary of the J. W. Wupperman Angostura Bittors Agency, Inc., guaranteed payment for insertions of a Klan advertisements in the "Country Editor" in Rockville Center. Wupperman is shown to have written the editor guaranteeing payment for the insertion of advertisement and for any printing bills contracted by one Tendale Randolph, whose name was signed to the advertisement calling for members for the Ku Klux Klan. Several Klan meetings in New York PHONE 23074 have been held at Wuppermann's home who, until now, has maintained that he is not a member of the hooded organization. NEGRO CORRESPONDENT ON RED ARMY PARADE C. Valentine for the Crusader Services. M.COOW, Dec. 20.—I landed in Petrograd on the 20 of October and on the 5th of November we had a big celebration, as the opening of the Fourth Congress of the Third Internationale, was celebrated in this city. I was cordially received and generously entertained by officials and citizens. On the 6th I witnessed the march of the delegates to the graves of the Heroes of the Revolution, and also saw the review of the Red Army. There were two Negroes in the Grand Stand to whom every conceivable kind of honor and attention was given as-evidence of the friendship of Soviet Russia toward our oppressed race! That is some army! The Red Army! In the evening I left on the "Trotzky Train" for Moscow with the delegates to the Congress. I was the only Press Correspondent so honoured. The "Trotzky Train" is the best train I have seen in all Europe. Well equipped with library and radio. On the 7th we arrived at Moscow and marched immediately to the Red Sq. in front of the Kremlin, where the parade took place, and Trotzky spoke. This was one of the grandest events I have seen. The Red Army and Navy are well-equipped and drive terror into the hearts of all enemies of Soviet Russia. But the celebration and parade also consist of the workers and children. The parade started at eleven A. M. and was not over until seven P. M. The spirit and enthusiasm of the masses is noticeable. I am leaving for Constantinople to night and will send full report there as the cable rates are too high to go into details here. The latest reports from the Southern belts inform us that the Negroes are leaving there by the thousands due to the fact of the failure of the much needed Dyer Bill and the constant increasing of the masked mobs namely the "Ku Klux Klan." This expedition by the oppressed Southern Negro is a very wise move. After the Negro has left the South the white employer will realize his valuable assistant and will do every thing in his power to conciliate with the Negro and give him his rights and privileges. Now that the Anti-Lynching Dyer-Bill has failed to pass, the Tyrants of Florida has again lynched another American citizen. Charles Wright the victim was charged by the mob as being implicated with the murder of a young white school teacher. He was placed under fire and burnt to a stake. Over three thousand people witnessed this affair and no one aided to fee him. After affairs of this kind shall we continue to call America a civilized country with high ideals and permit her citizens to be tortured in this fashion? Marcus Gravey, "self-styled President of Africa" will face the Government investigation in January on a charge of using the mails to defraud. The Black Star line will be the chief discussion during the trial. Without a doubt this man will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and be ruled out of the country. One of the recent acts which shows the manliness and pride of this generation of young Negroes is that of Leon Whitacker. There appeared an old newspaper published in slavery times on the window of one of the downtown banks. Among other advertisements was one asking for a Negro wench. Leon Whitacker, after reading the advertisement went directly to the president of the institution to petition him to have the article removed. As a result of Whitacker's effort the paper was taken from the window. This act only shows what can be done to reincarnate race feeling. CONDITIONS IN THE CAPITAL By Wilyan O. Stovall. Washington, D. C. has a Negro population of approximately 100,000. They engage in every line of business from bootblacking to banking. The existing prejudice conditions make it necessary for our people to co-operate in undertaking business enterprises. There is discrimination to be encountered on every hand. They have separate schools and segregation in most public places. Washington, to the foreign minister is representative of the whole of the United States. Isn't that an unpleasant impression for a visitor to take back to his own land. Europeans may carry back the story of the capital's discrimination, and thus transplant American prejudice into European thought, where it will grow as the Negro population increases. Although the capital is on the border line between what was formerly slave and free territory, the southern principles seem to have become predominant. The fact that there are three banks owned and operated by Negroes shows that there is no small amount of business transacted. The books of one large co-operative grocery store enables us to plainly see how much progress can be made by co-operation. Co-operation is one essential requirement for larger business. The Negroes of Washington, like those of New York, are beginning to realize the good of writing more money into a growing business which will not them considerabe profit. Here in Los Angeles we have not a large corporation of any kind. If we did, would it be patronized by our people enough to support it and enable it to grow. When visitors come to Washington from all parts of the East nd South to witness the annual Lincoln-Howard football classic, ready accommodations are to be found at the White-Law Hotel. This place has a large, dining hall and every modern convenience. Washington has several large insurance companies that are doing a creditable business. From time to time health lectures and discussions are held for their policy holders in their well equipped offices. The movie enthusiasts are not downhearted because they are segregated or not allowed in the white theatres. The famous players of "Shuffle Along." "Strut Mjss Lizzie" and "Croole Follies" appear at the Lincoln and the Howard Theatres. The Dunbar and the Foraker Theaters have the second run of the big New York attractions. Although the capital has a separate school system, the colored students have two up-to-date modern and well equipped prep-schools. The Dunbar high school offers a complete academic course; on the other hand the Armstrong high school is equipped to offer courses in manual training, machine shop, etc. Students whose work is in both schools must spend a part of the day at Dunbar and the remainder at Armstrong. They do not have the R. O. T. C. at these schools but they do have military training. The annual drill competition at the Washington American baseball park creates quite a sensation. Probably the greatest Negro higher institution of learning is at Washington. Howard University has on its roll students from all parts of the United States. Those who are there from Los Angeles realize the value of the association but they are not satisfied in many other respects. Every year more and more students are completing courses in business and various professions, to follow their line of endeavor in different parts of the country. Many graduates are employed immediately in government service at the capital. The athletes of Howard do not receive the publicity that the colored athletes of mixed colleges receive. It is because Howard has not the prestige of Harvard and other mixed colleges. Many star football players are to be found on Hampton, Howard and Lincoln elevens, but we did not hear of them because the International News Service does not carry news of the colored athletes in colored colleges. In the Howard-Hampton football game, Dabney of Hampton played a game that would win him a place on most any eleven in the country. But we do not hear of these athletes here in the West as we do Gourdin-Pollard Butler and others. The Y. M. C. A. of Washington has a our-story building with rather modern equipment. It has a good gymnasium, a lunch room and three floors are given over to dormitories. The large race newspapers are the "Washington Eagle," the "Washington ton Colored American," the "Washington ton Tribune," and the "Tattler," a so ciety weekly edition. These papers have a basket ball team to represent them in the colored eastern basket ball championship. On the whole the Negroes of Washington are progressing quite rapidly along every line of achievement, al though there is more prejudice than would be expected.

WITH FUNDS, DECLARES KLAN HEAD "Emperor of Invisible Empire Says Du Bois Got $20,000,000 for Race Cause ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 20.—(Crusader Service) "Col." William J. Simons, founder of the Ku Klux Klan, in a speech before the recent Imperial Klonvocation of the oathbound disguised anti-Negro, anti-Jew, anti-Catholic, anti-foreigner and anti-radical order, made the amazing declaration that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People had been given $20,000,000 by the Bolshevik for the purpose of securing political and social equality for the Negroes of the United States, in line with the resolutions to that effect passed by the Fourth Congress of the Third International in one of its recent sessions in Moscow, at which Negro delegates from the United States reported on the condition of the race in this country. The speech of "Col." Simmons, for mer Imperial Wizard, but now Emperor or of the Invisible Empire, as reported in the Atlanta Searchlight for Dec. 2, 1922, is an ill-informed, intemperate diatribe against Turks, Catholics, Reds Japanese, Radicals and Negroes. The part regarding Dr. Du Bois' or organization reads as follows: "In the South there are 11,000,000 Negroes, ennanchised in 1866 while still speaking the jargon of the jungle, and were given lordship over anglo-saxon civilization in the Southern States. The vast population, but one generation removed from savagery, has been the constant prey of scheming, designing, selfish, polited politicians. Organizations have been formulated and financed by unscrupulous men to further their particular fortune, political and otherwise, through offering the Negro political or social equality, or both. More recently the Bolshevik, organized in Russia, have proclaimed their purpose to bolshevise America, beginning with the Negro race, and for the preliminary purpose of organization it is alleged. $20,000,000 were appropriated and placed under the direction of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People." The above declaration from such a source shows that to the K. K. K. Bollevism and Negro freedom are somehow associated. Perhaps the good "Colonel" who boasts of his 100 per cent Americanism may be unintentionally showing Negroes a way of escape from their present oppression. SHADOW OF KU KLUX FALLS OVER CONGRESS AND NATION Seventy-Five Members of The House Reported Elected by Its Votes. N. Y. Banker Backer. Amazing Growth in Indiana and Other Northern States Reveals Klan Drive for Conquest of National Power. NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—(Special to the California Eagle) That the Ku Klux situation in this country is paralelling the Fascist situation in Italy a few months ago, which developed in the secrecy of the nation by Fascism, is rapidly being recognized by thoughtful people throughout the country. It may be said that when the New York Times recognizes in a reactionary organization such as the Klan a menace to the country that organization is a menace indeed. And, while the editorial staff of the Times cannot be said to have any wide reputation for intelligence or deep thinking, the fact that the Times should attack the Negro hating Klan, rooted sa both Klan and Times are in the traditions of the South, makes the following article, which appeared in the columns of the Sunday Times, Dec. 10, all the more significant: (From the N. Y. Times) The seriousness of the Ku Klux Klan menace in certain parts of the United States was brought home when it became known that John M. Parker, Governor of Louisiana, had gone to Washington seeking help of the National Government in combating the "invisible empire." It is common talk in Washington men who are members of, or in sympathe the next Congress will have many pathy with, the Ku Klux Klan. According to one report, probably seventy-five men in the new Congress will owe their election in large part to the support of the masked organization. It is established that there will be Representatives in the Congress who come to Washington with Ku Klux endorsement. Whether they are members is a question which cannot be answered, for the Klansman, as a rule, does not dmit his membership. That the Ku Klux problem has assumed nation-wide proportions cannot longer be denied. Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, Chairman of the National Democratic Senatorial Committee Sentiorial Committee, has charged on the floor of the Senate that "t the Klan showed its heinous and venomous character here and there in recent elections," and that, encouraged by its own power in some States, the organization "is threatening control of the political machinery of our political parties." The words of Senator Walsh were startling, but what he said has been borne out by reports from all parts of the country, particularly the South and West, where the growth of the Klan has been greatest. In at least two states—Texas and Oregon—it has proved its strength; in one case by the election of a Senator alleged to have been a member of the Klan and in the other by the election of a Governor. Instance after instance in which members to Congress, State officials and lesser officials have been defeated because of Klan opposition re cited in political circles. Because of the position Governor Parker assumed, the situation in Louisiana is the most talked about of all the States in the Union, but conditions in Louisiana are no worse than a number of other States. In Louisiana the Klan is charged with the mapping and murder of several men; it is alleged that it has electe the Mayor of one of Louisiana's greatest cities (not New Orleans) and in some sections in the northern part of the state it has assumed a doctrinal position.

Every man who stood for office on an anti-Klan ticket was defeated. Governor McRae, said to have had the Klan endorsement swept the primaries with a two to one majority over his opponent. Judge Toney. It would be hard to exaggerate the Texas situation, if the stories told in Washington are true. So bitter has been the fight that it has estranged life-long friends, and in some instances, so it is alleged, even destroyed the relations of Texas families. The upset of Harry Hortzberg of San Antonio, the Democratic nominee for Congress from the Fourteenth, or San Antonio, district was charged principally to the Ku Klux Klan. Hortzberg, a Jew of the highest standing, was opposed by Harry Wurzchach, a Republican, who defeated him in this normally heavy Democratic district by 4000 votes. The writer asked a Texan now in Washington in a high official capacity about the situation in the Lone Star State. "There can be," he said, "no two opinions as to the Ku Klux situation in Texas. The organization is out to control the State, and it lias made great headway. It has elected a Senator, in some instances the Judges who will preside over our courts and probably has a majority in the lower house of the Texas legislature. The number of officers, such as Sheriffs and other local and county officials, who owe their election to the Ku Klux Klan it is impossible to estimate. Oregon is face to face with a Ku Klux menace of the first magnitude. Governor Olcott, an implacable for of the organization, and backed by the anti-Klan forces regardless of party, was swept out of office on Nov. 7, by a majority of more than 3500 votes. His opponent had the Klan endorsement. Other states whence come reports of Klan activities include Illinois Kentucky, Tennessee, California, Arizona, Connecticut, Massachusetts Maryland, Virginia, North Dakota and even New York. That it is spreading and seeks to operate nationally no one denies. To further its political program it has started an auxiliary of women. FURNITURE CO.

The Klan in Indiana exerted its influence in a large number of instances in the recent election. The defeat of Milton Kraus, a veteran member of Congress, was attributed to the activities of the masked organization. Another reported victim of the organization was William J. Oliver. Republican candidate for State Treasurer. A third was Patrick J. Lynch, who stood for reelection as Clerk of the Indiana Supreme Court. The only known ground for the op position to these men was that of religion. Kraus is a Jew, Lynch a Catholic, and Oliver was said to have married a member of that Church. Had the rest of the Republican State ticket gone down to defeat the charge that the Ku Klux had contributed to the defeat of Oliver and Lynch would have collapsed, but the remainder of the Republican ticket, in all important instances, was elected. The greatest strength of the Indiana organization is in the cities. Indianapolis is, Terre Haute. Fort Wayne and Logansport. The Negro population in Indianapolis is proportionately one of the largest of any city in the North. In the neighboring State of Ohio the Ku Klux is als oat work, if information in Washington is correct. Two Democratic candidates there for the House of Representatives, whose election was practically conceded, were said to have gone down to defeat because of Klan opposition.** Out in Missouri it was the Ku Klux Klan and not the Woodrow Wilson influence which threatened to defeat Senator Reed. Across the line from Missouri is Kansas, another State where, if reports are true, the "invisible empire" has been making great hedaway. Representative Philip Campbell, Chairman of the House Committee on Rules, was head of the House Committee which investigated the Klan last year. He was badly defeated when he stood for renomination and will not be in the next Congress. To the South of Kansas are Arkansas and Oklahoma, and in both of those States the Ku Klux is admittedly gaining strength every day and it has become a commanding influence in the political affairs of large sections of both Commonwealths.

On two former occasions the Coleridge-Taylor Music Club presented to the people of Los Angeles HIAWA THA, a musical composition by Coleridge-Taylor. The attendance upon those concerts convinced us that our people love their great men, are proud of their accomplishments, and are contributors to and supporters of all movements instituted for purposes of education. It is not generally known, that each of the HIWATHA productions cost the club a sum approximating one thousand dollars. All financial, as well as moral obligations were assumed by persons who lay no claim to professional or semi-professional ability; they possessed many fine spirits, namely a willingness to work hard, a disposition to sacrifice for the good of others, and a generosity found only among those whose love of race has marked them as belonging to the progressive and aggressive type of Negro. They love art. All their work has been in his interest and furtherance of art. No eye was singled to the highest possible profits that might be derived from the work of the club. Some have been promised fixed sums to the date set for these concerts but they waived all claims for the justification of art and to demonstrate their love for the members of their race who are doing things. Uerhaps our failures in th past were due to the fact that we labored for twelve months to produce a single work of Coleridge-Taylor and then presented it one night only. If the actual cost of production is presumably one thousand dollars, and, if the proceeds for one evening's entertainment is a like amount, then there is only one benefit derived from a whole year's work of intensive rehearsing and sacrificing; another musical contribution has been given to the community. In defense of art this result would justify the existence of an organization as is the Coleridge-Taylor Music Club, but it does not compensate those whose enlegis have been exerted in pursuit of music as a profession and who are wholly dependent upon it for existence. The sad part is that it furnishes no inspiration or means for perpetuating th study of music or any other art, either individually or collectively. It is a recognized fact that music requires more unremitting practice and devotion than any other art or science. We have known thousands to exhaust themselves, but no one has ever exhausted the study of music. It is clearly seen that our financial condition is due largely to our own tactical blunders and not to any disposition on the part of the public generally. We hope to avoid the mistakes of the past by presenting compositions of a colossal nature to more than one audience and in at least three or four different cities. To this end THE TALE OF OLD JAPAN will be the chief work of the club this season and the people of Los Angeles will be given an opportunity to see the production two consecutive evenings. The TIME set for this concert is the second week in FEBRUARY. The PLACE is Gamut Auditorium. The OBJECT is to establish two or three scholarships for deserving and talented musicians who have not the means to pursue their art to a required degree of proficiency. In this way the club hopes to **h**ep exer before the Negro musician the name and works of Coleridge-Taylor, to the end that America may some day produce her Coleridge-Taylor. JUDGE CONKLIN OF EL CENTRO Perhaps there are some of our people who do not know that Judge Conklin is presiding in Judge Shenk's court during his vacation. Judge Conklin has made many strong friends among our people since his election to the Superior Bench. Many of those who were opposed to his election are now his most ardent admirers. The Judge is all right; a big man in a big position, dealing out even-handed justice to all regardless of race, color condition or creed. We wish the Judge a Merry Christmas.

Sees in Overthrow of Old Oppressive System. the Salvation of All Downtrodden Peoples. Not a Delegate. Went to Moscow on His Own Initiative to Present Race's Cause. NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—(Crusader Service) Claude McKay, the Negro poet who was one of two American Negroes to address the Fourth Congress of the Communist Internationale while in session in Moscow, has long looked toward Russia and her smashing blows at the Capitalist-Imperialist exploitive system as the hope of the Negro masses in their aspirations for liberation. He has been an outspoken advocate in this country of a policy of Negro friendship toward Soviet Russia to match the policy of marked friendship and fraternity which Moscow has shown, under Soviet rule, toward the colored peoples of the world, from the Persians to whom she gave freedom and help to throw off the remaining British yoke, to the Egyptians and Hindus whom she has helped with funds and arms all the way to Mongolia and China, to whose people she returned many Czarist spoils which the old Russia held in common with other plunderers. At this time when the press of the world has given front page circulation to the fact that Mr. McKay's presence in Russia and his stirring appeal in behalf of his race in the Americas and Africa, the following poem, taken from his latest book of poems, "Harlem Shadows," will be found of immense interest: EXHORTATION: SUMMER, 1919. Through the pregnant universe rumbles, life's terrific thunder. And Earth's bowels quake with horror; strange and terrible storms break. Lightning-torches flame the heavens, kindling souls of men, there under: Africa! long ages sleeping. O my motherland, awake! In the East the clouds glow crimson with the very dawn that is breaking. And its golden glory fills the western skies. O my brothers and my sisters, wake! arise! For the new birth rends the old earth and the very dead are waking. Ghosts are turned flesh, throwing off the grave's disguise! And the foolish, even children, are made wise! For the big earth groans in travail for the strong new world in making. O my brothers, dreaming for dim centuries. Wake from sleeping; to the East turn, turn your eyes! Oh the night is sweet for sleeping, but the sliming day's for working: Sons of the seductive night, for your children's children's sake. Lift your heavy-lidded eyes, Ethiopia! awake! In the East the clouds glow crimson with the new dawn that is breaking. And its golden glory fills the Western skies. O my brothers and my sisters, wake! arise! For the new birth rend the old earth and the very dead are waking. Ghosts are turned to flesh, throwing off the grave's disguise. And the foolish, even children, are made wise: For the big earth groans in travail for the strong, new world in making—O my brothers, dreaming for long centuries, Wake from sleeping; to the East turn, turn your eyes!

A resolution was adopted which pledged the members of the Internationale to strive for the equality of Negroes and Whites and for the full political and social freedom of the African race. The revolution also alleges that "the Negro populations are suffering from similar oppressions in Japan, China, India, Morocco and other countries." This is all interesting. It also puts a crimp in the superficial, but very widely discussed Negro opinion, that the Negro salvation is through Japan. Again, the Third Internationale, intimates that it may organize an allNegro conference for the purpose of considering the betterment of the black race in all parts of the world. The Negro is getting very popular or very notorious these days. Few conventions meet without considering this question. It presses for solution. The New York State Democratic Convention this year called for equality for the Negro. The Republican party conventions, since the Civil War, have usually called for equality for the Negro. This demand is also voiced by the National Socialist convention. It remains, however, to have these groups demonstrate concretely what they mean by "justice and equality" for the Negro. The Southern white man claims to believe in "justice" for the Negro. His applied justice, however, works about like this: in transportation, the white man in a Pullman car, the Negro in a Jim-Crow car; in the theatre, the white man in an orchestra seat, the Negro in the peanut gallery; in politics, as Frederick Douglas said, the Republican party the ship, all else the sea, which interpreted in applied politics meant, the white man on the ship, the Negro in call or in the sea, sometimes Lilly White Republicans, and Lilly White Democrats were even more charitable. They wanted to sate the Negro from labor. They loved him. They liked him so well they relieved him of having to bother about voting and decided they would for him. This is what we call 50-50 cooperation between white and colored people; it recalls the case of the Wisconsin town which was overrun by rabbits. The City Council decided to shoot all the rabbits. The meat packers, ever alert to business, determined upon making sausage meat of the rabbits. This process quickly consumed the rabbits, whereupon the packers began to mix horsemeat with rabbit-meat. The sausage got much coarser and the people complained. They wrote letters to the papers, as a result of which the newspapers reporters interviewed the packers. When the reporters asked the packers how they made this new sausage, the packers said they made it 50-50. The reporters pressed for a more specific answer, inquiring whether the packers meant by 50-50, a pound of horsemeat to a pound of rabbit-meat. Finally, hedged in a corner, the packers replied: "O you know what 50-50 means, 1 to 1—one horse to one rabbit." We are interested in the Negro getting a 50-50 break these days, but we don't want it at the rate of one horse to one rabbit. We anxiously await the applied Communism to "equality for Negroes," and sincerely hope there will be no duplication of the Wisconsin town's proportion. SPANISH-ENGLISH Archic J. Williams, A. B., M.
